Geochemical data for Illinois Basin coal samples, 2015–2018
Researchers at the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and their collaborators conducted a study of the geochemical properties of coals currently produced for electric power generation in the Illinois Basin in Illinois and Indiana. The study follows from recommendations by an expert panel for the USGS to investigate the distribution and controls of trace constituents such as mercury (Hg) in Illinois Basin coals and the behavior of these constituents in coal preparation. A total of 72 new samples were collected by USGS collaborators between 2015 and 2017. These samples include raw coals, prepared coals, and waste coals from coal preparation. To understand the geochemistry and cleaning behavior of these coals, these samples were subjected to an integrated series of analyses described here, including microanalysis of coal constituents and bulk sample chemical analysis. Of the procedures used, whole-sample Hg analysis quantified overall mercury contents and its reduction by coal preparation. Laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) of pyrite in coal quantified Hg and other potentially harmful elements contained in pyrite, the most likely host of these constituents. Trace elements investigated include those whose emissions are regulated under the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Mercury and Air Toxics Standards. This report and the corresponding data release, serve as an archive for geochemical data obtained in our study of the geochemistry of Illinois Basin coals. Material included in this report also define approaches used by the USGS over the period of study to characterize coal samples, requiring combined use of results from USGS and non-USGS laboratories.

The Architect is a 2006 American drama film directed by Matt Tauber. Based on the 1996 play by David Greig, the plot is about architect Leo Waters (Anthony LaPaglia), who is confronted by angry residents of a housing complex he designed. The buildings have created a culture of crime in the neighborhood and the residents want them pulled down. The film had its world premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival on April 26, 2006, and received a limited release in the United States on December 1, 2006.

Plot
Leo Waters is a successful architect, who also teaches architecture at a local university. He has a strained relationship with his family, including his wife Julia, who is a housewife who spends her time tending to their luxurious modern house, their son Martin, who recently dropped out of college and has no interest to follow in his father's footsteps and become an architect, and their daughter Christina, who he watches inappropriately at times.

Tonya Neely is a cleaning lady who lives in a state-funded high-rise public housing project Leo has designed several years ago in Chicago's South Side. Her son committed suicide and her eldest daughter is a young single mom. Meanwhile, Cammie, her youngest daughter attends a prestigious school on a scholarship and lives with a wealthy family Tonya's knows from her work.

Tonya leads a community effort to demolish the housing project and build a new better one instead. In an attempt to gain support for her cause, Tonya reaches out to Leo in a lecture and asks him to sign her petition calling for the demolition of the project. He initially defends his work, but later comes up with an idea on how to improve the project by modifying its current design without the need for a complete demolition. He later invites Tonya to his house to share his vision but she is appalled by his proposed approach, especially as he has not bothered to visit the project since it was first built.

Meanwhile, Martin travels to the housing project to see it for himself, and meets Shawn, young gay prostitute who lives in the project. Shawn had committed suicide by jumping off a roof of a building, in the same manner Tonya's own son killed himself.

Leo goes to the housing project to meet Tonya. He tell her that he agrees to sign her petition, but she informs him that the authorities have already agreed to demolish the project. Martin walks to the roof of one of the building where he unexpectedly bumps into his own father, and they share a silent emotional glaze.

Bidets Gain U.S. Popularity During The Coronavirus Crisis
I'm pretty sure I speak for most people when I say a particular source of anxiety for many Americans right now is toilet paper. As I'm sure you've noticed, many stores across the country have been running out of toilet paper as people stock up in preparation for self-isolation or even lockdowns.
There's no actual shortage - or so we're told. More on that in a minute. But the concern over the availability of toilet tissue has led to an interesting side effect. Some Americans are turning to another option for bathroom hygiene that's long been common in Europe and Asia.
KATE KNIBBS: I've been interested in bidets for a long time because they've always seemed to me like a pretty rational way to clean yourself in the bathroom, but they've been pretty aggressively unpopular in North America for at least my whole life.
MARTIN: That's Kate Knibbs, a senior writer at Wired, who recently wrote about the bidet and its increasing popularity here in the U.S. But she says the pandemic-induced run on toilet paper was just one reason the people she spoke with decided to give bidets a try.
KNIBBS: The quote people have been bringing up again and again is, "if a bird pooped on you, you wouldn't wipe it off with a dry towel. You would wipe it off with water."
MARTIN: Can't argue with that logic. Knibbs says some bidet sellers have seen as much as a tenfold increase in sales over the last few weeks. Besides coming in handy when you're in a toilet paper pinch, bidets may also be a good option for folks looking to make their bathroom routine more sustainable, although there are no studies that show exactly how much paper you can save by using a bidet.
KNIBBS: Toilet paper takes a lot of water to manufacture. So when you are choosing to use a bidet, even though it's water-based, you're actually going to be saving water in the long run and not having to consume paper products that require in addition to water cutting down trees.
MARTIN: There also don't appear to be any peer-reviewed studies on what the health benefits of using bidets might be. But Knibbs says several medical professionals she spoke with recommend using them.
KNIBBS: One of the doctors that I talked to told me that most people don't know how to wipe properly. And if you wipe properly, you can get most of the - fecal residue I believe was the phrase he used. But because most people don't, you know, they're not being as hygienic as they should be. And a bidet is a more foolproof way of making sure you're completely clean.
MARTIN: And if you're really ready to make the switch, there are already a lot of options for you out there.
KNIBBS: Toto, I believe, is a bidet-maker that is really popular. They make the luxury kinds with the nice warm air. There's also a lot of startups that offer what are called wash lids. And that's a bidet attachment, so you don't need a whole new toilet. Those tend to be less fancy but more affordable. And I think they're a good option for people who just want to experiment right now and don't necessarily want to commit to buying a product that's several hundred dollars.
MARTIN: Whatever the cost, bidets aren't likely to suddenly become massively popular in America, crisis or no crisis. That's in part because toilet paper isn't really going to run out anytime soon. Knibbs says the product's U.S.-based supply chain is robust enough to keep us supplied through this pandemic. But she does hope all this toilet paper talk helps us to be more open to talking about how we go.
KNIBBS: I think there's nothing but benefits that can come from us having a sense of humor and opening up and talking about our butts more. So I would say embrace the horror and embarrassment of admitting that you poop, and let's get better at it.
MARTIN: That was Kate Knibbs, a senior writer with Wired. She recently wrote an article about the increasing popularity of bidets in the United States.

All Upcoming Jack O'Connell Movies and TV Shows
Varun Patel
Jack O'Connell is an English actor who is known for having appeared in the bildungsroman drama, 'This is England' and the teen dramedy television series, 'Skins.' He is notable for essaying characters of troubled youngsters with anger issues.
O'Connell was born in Derby and considers himself to be more in touch with his Irish heritage than his British, national identity. He made his acting debut by playing an angry teenager in the medical soap-opera, 'Doctors.' He had his film debut with the critically acclaimed movie, 'This is England' which revolved around the skinhead subculture of the '80s.
After acting in several movies, O'Connell shot to fame with this single-season appearance in the widely popular coming-of-age show, 'Skins' where he played the character of James Cook. He went on to win a TV Choice award for Best Actor for this role.
His portrayal of a teenage criminal in prison in the television movie, 'Starred Up' can be considered as his breakthrough too, as it earned the actor significant critical acclaim. Next year, he was seen in another indie movie, ''71' which was a historical thriller following a soldier sent to Belfast when political violence had marred Northern Ireland.
O'Connell bagged his first leading role for a major Hollywood production with the war film, 'Unbroken' where he shared screen space with Angelina Jolie. The actor lost almost 30 pounds for his role as a bombardier who was kept in captivity by Japanese forces as a prisoner of war. For this role, O'Connell was awarded the BAFTA Rising Star award. In 2017, O'Connell essayed the role of an outlaw, Roy Goode in the critically appreciated miniseries, 'Godless' which ran for seven episodes.
O'Connell had a troubled youth owing to the death of his father when he was just 18 years old. The actor had a notorious reputation for his partying habits when he was a cast member of 'Skins.' He has often opened up about how that phase of his life influenced the kind of roles that he took up. Furthermore, he credits Angelina Jolie who directed him in 'Unbroken' for having changed his outlook towards life. The actor will be seen in the following projects in the coming future. Hopefully, his new roles will be as good as his previous ones.
5. Seberg (2019)
The political thriller, 'Seberg' is an upcoming movie that chronicles real events from the late 1960s. It follows the popular actress, Jean Seberg who was an icon of the French New Wave cinema. Kristen Stewart plays the character of Seberg who gets romantically involved with the African-American activist, Hakim Jamal leading her to be targeted by the FBI.
Anthony Mackie has essayed the role of Jamal in this 2019 movie which is set to premiere in the United States on the 13th of December this year while it will be released on 3rd January in the United Kingdom. The movie was premiered at the Venice Film Festival and the Toronto International Film Festival. Pre-release reviews for the movie have praised it for staying true to actual facts and for Stewart's performance.
4. Jungleland (2019)
'Jungleland' is an upcoming drama movie about a road trip that premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival in September this year. Jack O'Connell and Charlie Hunnam from 'Sons of Anarchy' play the role of two debt-ridden brothers, Stanley and Lion. Due to their poor financial situation, the two characters are forced to accompany and look after a woman during a cross-country road trip.
The movie functions as a character study for the three lead characters and how the journey changes them. Pre-release reviews for the movie have praised its witty dialogues along with its leading cast's performances. It is directed by Max Winker who is best known for his directorial debut, 'Ceremony' starring Uma Thurman and Michael Angarano. 'Jungleland' also stars Jessica Barden as the brothers' travel companion.

3. Little Fish (TBA)
This upcoming romantic science-fiction movie is reportedly based on a high concept screenplay by Mattson Tomlin. It is set in a speculative future where an outbreak of a disease that erases people's memories occurs. The plot is based on a short story by novelist, Aja Gabel and focuses on a young couple who struggle to keep their marriage alive in the face of the pandemic. Olivia Cooke and O'Connell will play the couple, Emma and Jude respectively, while Raul Castillo is also a part of the movie's cast. The movie began filming in March this year.

2. The North Water (TBA)
This upcoming BBC television mini-series is an adaptation of Ian McGuire's novel of the same name that will release in four parts. It follows a brutal killer, Henry Drax who goes on a whaling expedition to the Arctic. Accompanying Drax is an ex-army surgeon, Patrick Sumner who joins the voyage as the ship's doctor.
Dealing with the murderous psychopath, Drax and the horrors of his past, Sumner finds himself struggling to survive in the Arctic. Colin Farrell plays the role of Henry Drax while Jack O'Connell essays Patrick Sumner. The series was shot in Norway and Hungary and its shooting began in October this year.
1. Love is a Gun (TBA)
This upcoming action-drama movie will see Jack O'Connell and Chloe Grace Moretz step into the shoes of the infamous criminal couple, Bonnie and Clyde. The movie is based on Jeff Guinn's book, 'Go Down Together: The True, Untold Story of Bonnie and Clyde' and will attempt to portray the couple in an alternate light by depicting their story in a de-glamorized manner.
The couple was a part of the Barrow gang who were active during the Great Depression-era of the 1930s, robbing small banks, stores and gas stations. Although they have been painted as cigar-smoking, machine gun-wielding criminal masterminds, 'Love is a Gun' attempts to correct this representation. It will portray how the couple had to fend for themselves by camping in stolen cars and eating cold, canned food while nursing their crippling injuries from past accidents.

Ramesh Powar likely to take over the role of Mumbai coach
Ramesh Powar is likely to be the next Mumbai Ranji coach as he was chosen by MCA's cricket improvement committee (CIC) following deliberation.

Following Harmanpreet Kaur's support, Ramesh Powar re-applies for coach job

Rames Powar is likely to be the next Mumbai Ranji coach. The former India off-spinner was chosen as the right candidate by the MCA's cricket improvement committee (CIC) following a lot of deliberation. The CIC's decision, however, wasn't made public owing to a loose comment made by Powar in the past about the MCA, which came back to haunt him. The 40-year-old had criticized the MCA for having a "lack of creative freedom" during his tenure as the spin coach at their academy. This led to the association's managing committee passing a resolution a few months ago, wherein Powar was barred from being given any coaching assignment. This resolution had led to Powar not being roped in by any franchise during the inaugural Mumbai T20 League with the MCA keen on their former mainstay serving a one-year ban.
Powar though was only one of three local coaches to be shortlisted after the MCA insisted on not being keen on an outstation coach. That decision put a premature end to former India wicket-keeper Ajay Ratra's ambitions of taking over the reins of the most successful domestic team in Indian cricket history. The MCA had even extended the deadline for inviting applications for the coach's post but that didn't make a difference to the lukewarm response.
Powar had competition from former wicket-keeper Vinayak Samant and pacer Pradeep Sundaram. There was some talk during the day of former India batsman and Mumbai coach Pravin Amre being brought back into the mix. However, his position with the Delhi Daredevils franchise meant that itcould lead to a conflict of interest issue.
The CIC, chaired by former India pacer Balwinder Singh Sandhu, asked the MCA to consider a scenario where they demand an apology from Powar, and subsequently and move forward with his appointment. If Powar refuses to apologize, then the CIC can always go ahead with giving the role to Samant.
"The meeting was adjourned as no decision was taken today. The CIC heard out all candidates but they needed more time before finalising the name of the coaches (junior and senior) for the forthcoming season. The final appointment of coaches will be made formal by Thursday evening," MCA's joint secretary Dr Unmesh Khanvilkar said.
Powar played two Tests and 31 ODIs for India and was a longstanding servant of Mumbai cricket before moving to Gujarat towards the end of his domestic career.
Meanwhile, The Indian Express has learnt that the CIC will be appointing former all-rounder Wilkin Mota, who was chosen among eight candidates, as the Mumbai under 19 coach.

I am trying to import the complex type customer from book_request.xsd to provisional_book_request.xsd and I try to achieve it by <xsd:element name="customer" type="customer:customer"/>
But I face the following error

"Invalid attribute value for 'ref' in element 'element'. Recorded
  reason: UndeclaredPrefix: Cannot resolve 'customer:customer' as a

As I am very new to XSD, any help would be appreciated

A: Declare a namespace prefix for the imported namespace in provisional_book_request.xsd,
<xsd:schema

     xmlns:br="book-request"

and use it to reference the imported type:
<xsd:element name="customer" type="br:customer"/>

then your error will go away.

Clinical Challenges > ESMO: Breast Cancer HER2-
Clinical Challenges: Brain Mets in HER2-Positive Breast Cancer
Multidisciplinary approach key as patients with brain metastases live longer
by Leah Lawrence, Contributing Writer, MedPage Today October 11, 2019
The risk for developing brain metastases is higher in patients with more aggressive subtypes of breast cancer, including HER2-positive disease.
"The more recent estimates say that as many as half of patients with metastatic HER2-positive disease will develop brain metastases over the course of their lifetime," said Nancy U. Lin, MD, of Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston.
A 2018 retrospective Belgian study identified several risk factors associated with increased risk of brain metastases in these patients, including age younger than 40, tumor size greater than 2 cm, nodal involvement, absence or late start of anti-HER2 treatment, and development of a lung lesion as the first site of relapse.
"What is unclear is how many of these factors are independent factors versus them going along with the HER2-positive and triple-negative subtypes of the disease," Lin said. "We just do not fully understand the basis for this increase in risk."
Historically, patients with brain metastases have been excluded from most clinical trials and registration studies, Lin said.
"A publication looked at PubMed-indexed phase I and II clinical trials and a sub-analysis showed half of the trials that enrolled HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer patients excluded those patients with any history of brain metastases," she noted. "Even today, the vast majority exclude patients with active brain metastases."
Because of this, effective treatment of brain metastases remains an unmet medical need among women with HER2-positive breast cancer.
Standard treatment for these patients are local approaches targeted to the brain. Patients with a single metastases would typically undergo surgery, Lin explained. This approach is based on an older randomized trial enrolling patients with a variety of solid tumors that showed an overall survival advantage of surgery compared with radiation alone.
Patients who have two, three, or four brain metastases may be better candidates for stereotactic radiation: "The question remains, though, where do we draw that line ... at five, 10, 20?" she continued. "We do know that the more lesions that are there, the more we lean toward whole-brain radiation, although we try to avoid it whenever we can."
Historically, in many solid tumors the average survival after a diagnosis of brain metastases is about 6 months, but that is not the case in women with HER2-positive breast cancer, Lin said. In fact, survival with brain metastases seems to be linked with disease subtype.
For example, a single-institution study from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill looked at 65 patients with breast cancer brain metastases and found that the median time from diagnosis of brain metastases to death was 1.15 years for the group with triple-negative disease, 1.31 years for those with hormone receptor-positive disease, and 3.03 years for those with HER2-positive disease.
"In some cases we may even see patients living 5 years or longer with brain metastases," Lin said.
Over the last decade, there has also been a shift in the treatment of breast cancer with brain metastases, with clinicians now considering the use of systemic therapy in place of or in addition to local therapy, according to Jane Meisel, MD, of Winship Cancer Institute in Atlanta.
"In the past a lot of trials excluded these patients, but now more and more are including them, particularly patients with stable metastases after radiation," Meisel said. "Getting this type of real-world data, in this rapidly changing field, is more important than ever."
One example is an extension study of a phase II study of lapatinib (Tykerb) in patients with brain metastases, which showed an objective response rate of 6% for patients taking lapatinib alone, with an increase to a 20% central nervous system response rate with lapatinib plus capecitabine.
The NALA study compared neratinib (Nerlynx) versus lapatinib in patients with HER2-positive metastatic disease following two prior lines of therapy. In this study, oncologic outcomes improved with neratinib, including a reduction in incidence of symptomatic brain metastasis, 22% in the neratinib arm compared with 29% for the lapatinib arm.
Another exciting potential systemic therapy option is the drug tucatinib, which Meisel said is currently under clinical investigation. A phase I study of capecitabine plus trastuzumab (Herceptin) with tucatinib showed an overall response rate of about 42%. Based on these results, the HER2CLIMB study is looking at this treatment regimen in more than 600 patients. The study is fully enrolled and investigators are currently analyzing results.
Lin's colleague at Dana-Farber, Rachel Freedman, MD, presented results at the 2019 American Society of Clinical Oncology annual meeting from the TBCRC 022 trial testing neratinib and capecitabine in patients with HER2-positive disease and brain metastases.
"Using this oral combination there were responses in about 50% of patients," Lin said. "Fifty percent is not 90%, but it is a very promising start, and responses in some cases were reasonably durable."
Freedman is now leading the next part of the study, which will look at ado-trastuzumab emtansine (Kadcyla) in combination with neratinib.
"It is important to remember that all of these treatments have side effects, whether it is chemotherapy, targeted therapy, radiation, or surgery," Lin said. "As we continue our research it is very important to think about the long-term effects. It used to be that people did not live long enough for that to be a concern, but that is changing. Taking care of these patients moving forward will require a functional, multidisciplinary team approach."
Lin reported financial relationships with Daiichi Sankyo, Puma, Seattle Genetics, Array Biopharma, Genentech, Merck, Novartis, and Pfizer.
Meisel reported financial relationships with Puma, Pfizer, Lilly, and Seattle Genetics.

Joseph Socquet had a dream: He always wanted to be a farmer. After many years, his dream finally came true.
The sweet smell of milk and cheese fills the shop on Joseph's farm. Just as we're standing at the cold cut and meat counter of the shop, where homemade products are on display, something catches our eye. It's a newborn calf taking its first steps while pressing its delicate body against a huge window at the end of the room. A deeply heart-warming moment and an immediate reminder how precious the delicacies before us truly are.
A closer look into Joseph's barn reveals 50 dairy cows. They are Abondance cattle, a breed known and cherished for its adaptability and resilience. The latter is also true for their owner: When Joseph Socquet steps into the barn, you would never guess that he only slept for three hours last night. Pink cheeks, a charming smile, and sky blue eyes. The newborn calf is to blame for the short night, but even on regular nights, Joseph doesn't need much sleep. He has too many brilliant ideas on his mind. One of them was the deeply rooted wish of becoming a farmer, and also, of being a free man.
Joseph is what you would call a Megève institution. He comes from an old farming family that has stood the test of time (nearly 500 years!) thanks to its will to survive and a good dash of stubbornness. These roots are what give Joseph his drive and perseverance. It took thirteen years to realize his dream of his own farm and there were quite a few obstacles he had to overcome. Now the magnificent wooden abode and restaurant sits on the top of a hill and opens up to a breathtaking view over the village and surrounding mountains.
From the yoghurt manufactory in the cellar to the fully automated cowshed – Joseph proves that a bit of technology goes a long way on his farm. Most of all, it gives him the freedom to develop exquisitely high-quality products. He is even able to make time for other activities such as giving lectures, where he shares his knowledge. But he feels the most comfortable at home with his 'crew'. At the same time Joseph believes in the importance of being present in the world instead of "sitting around, doing nothing." In other words: A bit of networking has never done any harm.
Everything is working perfectly: The products, ranging from cheese to paté are sold in Paris' finest delicatessens. Business is booming and Megève's own also love Joseph's products. Many visitors from abroad are so thrilled that they want to recreate Joseph's concept at home. His recipe for success is easy to spell out: Keeping the entire production process under one roof – from rearing the cattle to refining the finished product. Instead of selling milk and meat to mass production, he does it all on his own. Joseph has also freed himself from all farmers' associations. That is how he can be sure to produce and maintain the highest quality level possible; one that satisfies him and is well received by locals. "People want the face behind the brand, " Joseph explains. And he represents his brand with full conviction.
"Even if everything here sparkles, you have to give it all, every day," he says. Otherwise the sparkle will quickly be lost. Whether in the shop, the barn, or when making coffee in the restaurant upstairs, Joseph exudes an air of confidence and good humour. He's always smiling, always in a good mood. The simple pleasures of a man who has the talent of achieving what he wants. He is happy to share with others. Just like he shares his homemade yoghurt. Another thing Joseph has taught himself, with the help of the Laiterie Gaiddon's former owner and master cheese maker. Joseph's dream of cows and mountains creamily melts on our tongue. Is there anything he wishes for? "Yes, energy collectors," he grins. They could make him energetically autonomous. Could there be any more freedom?! Perhaps in another one of Joseph's many dreams.


Pogba, 25, was instrumental in the semi-final win in St Petersburg, as Samuel Umtiti's goal in the 51st minute put the 1998 champions in the World Cup final against the victor of Croatia and England. Before the World Cup started I said I would give my home up to see Croatia become World Champions! "I mean, we are proud already because no one thought we would make it this far".
"We've always been stuck in the shadows of that team", he said, "but I hope with this win we've finally come out of it". I know the taste of losing a final. "That will not happen again".
Every time a major tournament comes around, a familiar refrain is heard in the region: "If only Yugoslavia was one country, imagine the wonderful team we could have". The national team was forced to play a European Championship qualifier against Italy in an empty stadium in Split in June 2015 because Croat fans had thrown flares on the field during a match against the Azzurri at Milan. But they are mentally very strong.
"Dream, Dream, Dream! Croatia are in the World Cup final", said the Sportske Novosti newspaper, adding that coach Zlatko Dalic "has entered into legend" after bettering the achievement of the 1998 team.
"For us, we are not the favourites". We would be delighted if Modric won the MVP and the Golden Ball for being the best player at the tournament. "Those friendlies were a huge help so that now here we are about to play the final". "We are chasing something and will do everything to succeed".
"For sure the Croats they want the star (for winning the title) they have had a good run. Serbia is a democratic society and everyone has the right to support whoever they want", Vucic said.
"The Croats are not just Modric".
Luka Modric's men needed extra time to beat a spirited Three Lions team with a 109th minute victor from Mario Mandzukic after Kieran Trippier's early free kick was canceled out by Ivan Perisic in the second half.
A string of disciplined displays by the 25-year-old has even earned him rare praise from United manager Jose Mourinho, who has been critical of the club's record signing in the past.
"Now, I think people judge me on my role as a midfielder and not as a player who can score goals and make assists".
However, the news of this endorsement was undermined by another letter signed by Kavanaugh's fellow alumnus of Yale Law School. Shah said the undisclosed number of unidentified friends paid Kavanaugh back for their share of the tickets.
On Tuesday, he will attempt to guide Belgium to a first World Cup final in the nation's history at the expense of Les Bleus . The last time a Belgium team got this far at the World Cup, it lost 2-0 to Argentina at the 1986 tournament in Mexico.
The four rescued on Monday were rushed to a hospital to join their other rescued teammates in quarantine in case of infection. Graphic: The Thai cave complex where four boys and their soccer coach remain trapped is expansive, stretching about 10 km.
The film will be produced by Emma Tillinger Koskoff and executive produced by Richard Baratta. I don't really care about the genre, I care about the character and the filmmaker.
Highlights of the short two-day trip include a Gaelic sports festival at Croke Park, the home of the Gaelic Athletic Association. Meghan, meanwhile, went for a darker look in a retro-style, bespoke Dior dress featuring her go-to bateau neckline .
England had got off to a flying start when Trippier curled a superb free kick into the top corner in the opening minutes. A peak audience of 1.05 million in Wales tuned in for England's World Cup semi-final defeat against Croatia .

IBA set to renew Gazprom sponsorship deal
The development comes despite the IOC voicing concerns about dependence on the Russian gas giant
The International Boxing Association (IBA) seems set to renew its sponsorship deal with Gazprom after its national federations approved doing so despite concerns of dependency on the Russian gas giant previously raised by the International Olympic Committee (IOC).
The IBA's Russian president Umar Kremlev informed representatives at an Ordinary Congress in Abu Dhabi on Sunday that a two-year, $50 million deal with Gazprom is nearing expiry.
"Gazprom helped us to become independent and made us financially stable," Kremlev said, as reported by Inside the Games.
"Through this partnership we have been able to help many athletes and have been able to offer prize money at the continental and World Championships level."
World boxing chiefs accused of 'Gazprom dependence'
"It has also ensured the participation of national federations that would otherwise not have been able to send teams to these events. They turned to the IBA, which has helped them participate."
"This year, the contract runs out," Kremlev informed the gathering, before asking "National Federations, do you agree to extend the contract?" to a round of applause.
The IBA is currently being prevented from overseeing boxing at the Paris 2024 Olympics and has been urged to introduce reforms. The sport has been left off the initial program for the Los Angeles 2028 Olympics.
There are concerns from the IOC and its president Thomas Bach about refereeing and judging, in addition to the IBA's finances and "financial dependency" on Gazprom.
Kremlev explained at the Ordinary Congress how he wanted to ensure that all decisions regarding the IBA's future are made together with national federations before stating that his goal is for boxing "to become the cleanest and most transparent sport out there."
The IBA has appointed McLaren Global Sport Solutions as its "integrity oversight body" for the next four years, and Kremlev further announced that the IBA "will also extend its contract with Professor McLaren and his team so our transparency only grows stronger."

Victorious is back on Southsea seafront with an epic line-up, heaps of free stuff to keep the kids entertained, a Real Ale village, The Big Top Soul Circus, and what's more it's cheap as chips (from £30 adults, £7 kids and £1 for under 5s) compared to the majority of fests.
Graze is a real home-grown fest, started last year by a small group of residents in Twyford. This family day of music and fine food drew crowds of more than 2000 people and raised over £10,000 for local charities. "The feedback we received was 'please don't change anything, please don't go corporate or try to expand too much'", says co-organiser Tim Smith. So, this year the festival returns, hoping to keep its raw charm, with a line-up including Toyah (Wilcox), John Otway and 80s ska revival band, The Beat - whose lively tunes are the perfect accompaniment for a balmy summer evening.
Over 500 watersports pros will be making their annual pilgrimage to Hayling Island in September for the 10th anniversary of the National Watersports Festival (NWF).
Going back to its roots, the fest will focus on windsurfing, as well as one of the world's fastest growing sports – stand up paddleboarding. The three-day spectacular offers 'have a go' sessions, races and flood-lit displays come moonlight, along with live music, food & drink stalls and parties.
Now attracting 10,000 spectators, event Director, Allan Cross says: "When we started this event a decade ago we really didn't know how many people would attend and what the reaction would be like, but from the very first festival the NWF has exceeded all our expectations.
"This year we want to deliver a weekend that raises the bar on previous years and we've got a number of things up our sleeve that will make this a must-attend event for both competitors and spectators alike.
Fancy spending the day merrily sampling hundreds of delicious wines? Winchester's Wine Festival takes over the Guildhall bringing with it some home-grown grapes from Hampshire's finest producers. What's more Masters of Wine, Susie & Peter, from BBC1's Saturday Kitchen will be offering a wine masterclass, so you'll finally know your left bank from your right bank Bordeaux, even if you can no longer read the label!

Jenna Bush Hager's late grandmother has given her one last Christmas surprise that has moved her to tears.
The co-host of TODAY with Hoda & Jenna spoke with People magazine in their latest issue out Wednesday about the special gift that former first lady Barbara Bush left for her great-grandchildren before her death at 92 last year.
Jenna said she received a call from her aunt last November to tell her that her beloved "Ganny" left several hand-needlepointed Christmas stockings for the great-grandchildren she didn't live to see, including Jenna's baby son, Hal, who was born in August.

"What a beautiful thing she did so that all three of my kids could have that,'' she told People while tearing up. "He will never have met her, but they're so ingrained, literally in this case, in the fabric of our family."
Last year was a difficult one for her family, as she lost three of her grandparents, including Barbara's husband, former President George H.W. Bush, who died at 94 in November.

"Hal's the first baby who won't get to meet these people that were such an important part of my life,'' she told People. "But I also know that through my grandparents' letters and their stories and the ways they raised us, he'll get to know them."

Jenna looked back on some of the special memories of Christmas with her grandmother in an essay for Southern Living magazine last year, when she first mentioned Barbara making Christmas stockings for her daughters Mila, 6, and Poppy, 4.
"When I imagine my Ganny, I think of her hands busy (usually her mouth too) as she meticulously needlepointed,'' she wrote. "She worked on many projects, but her most precious were stockings for her great-grandchildren."
The elder Bush made Mila a stocking with her name in cursive next to poinsettias and Poppy one with a Christmas cat watching Santa.

Jenna believes the Christmas stockings represent her grandmother's personality in a fitting way.
"That was our Ganny," she wrote. "She wanted to leave the world a little more beautiful through her work, her words, and even her needlepoint stockings."
Her father, former President George W. Bush, has now become the patriarch of the family as well as a doting grandfather to Jenna's three children.

"He's a lovely, thoughtful grandfather and dad,'' she told People.
Jenna also opened up about sharing parenting duties with husband Henry Hager, who is a director at a private-equity firm, and what she tells herself when life with three children and her job at TODAY gets overwhelming.
"Somebody said you should think about what your dreams were as a little girl,'' she said. "I always wanted to be a mom and now I get to be the mom to these three people. And it's been 10 years that I've been on the TODAY show, and 10 years ago I could never have dreamed of sitting next to somebody I admire and love so much as Hoda.
"So in the moments of complete chaos, which there are, when there's slime in my carpet and I'm dirty and messy and exhausted, I just try to think, 'This is the life that you've always dreamed of — and now you're living it.'"

Tony Elumelu Promotes Nigeria as top Investment Destination to the French Business Community
Serial entrepreneur, philanthropist and promoter of Africaptalism, Tony O. Elumelu on 27 May 2016, delivered an inspiring speech in Paris, France, selling Nigeria as an investment destination to the French business community.
Elumelu, who is the Chairman of Pan-African banking group, United Bank for Africa (UBA) Plc and proprietary investment firm, Heirs Holdings delivered the speech as a guest speaker at the 1st 'Colloque Nigeria', a colloquium on doing business and investment in Nigeria, which was organised by the French Senate at the exquisite Palais de Luxembourg in Paris, France.
Speaking at the conference, the Founder of the Tony Elumelu Foundation said that like every part of the world, investors in Nigeria and Africa are faced with a myriad of challenges, but amidst these challenges no other destinations provided more opportunities and return on investment as do Nigeria and Africa. "Nigeria remains a very viable, attractive and important investment and export destination for French companies. As a matter of fact, I would argue that now is a good time to come and invest in Nigeria, because it is an investor's market. The fundamentals of the Nigerian economy remain strong," he said.
According to Elumelu, some of the trends supporting long – term growth in Nigeria are the increased use of technology by the Nigerian population, high consumerism, young demographic and increasing urbanization. Whilst encouraging French businesses to come and discover Nigeria, he advised the would – be investors to find the right partner that would help them navigate the environment and stated that they need be committed to invest in Nigeria for the long haul.
"Nigeria has always been a unique country. We are not only the most populous country on the continent of Africa, we are amongst the best educated and most-traveled people in Africa. We Nigerians are well known for our positive outlook and can-do spirit. Even more importantly, we have a strong culture and spirit of entrepreneurship. The smart investor, knows that this is the time to enter our market because the fundamentals of the Nigerian economy remain strong, and where others perceive risk and challenge, the glass is actually half full rather than half empty" Elumelu said.
He asserted that despite the current challenges faced by Nigeria which have been brought about by the sharp drop in commodity prices, the country still offers one of the highest returns on investment on the continent
iting the example of what UBA has been able to achieve in Nigeria, Elumelu said that UBA has operated profitably in Nigeria for the past 70 years and in the last decade, increased its footprint into 18 other countries in Africa as it set up business offices in Paris, New York and London. "UBA is helping to finance major projects in infrastructure, as well as in the agriculture and construction sectors of the African countries in which we operate, most of these being francophone countries. We have continued to open more UBA branches of our subsidiaries and we have become better established in those markets. The second stage of the roll out on the continent begins later this year".
"The large Nigerian economy plays an important leading role in West Africa and beyond. So when you invest in Nigeria, the benefits spill over to our neighbours in dozens of countries" he continued.
He thanked the investing community for their enthusiasm about investing in Nigeria and he encouraged them to "believe in Nigeria; come to Nigeria; discover Nigeria; invest in Nigeria; help develop Nigeria and prosper with Nigerians; and most importantly, take an Africapitalist approach to entering and investing in Nigeria because what we are looking for are sustainable partnerships that will deliver sustainable development through the private sector going about its normal commercial activities," he concluded.
Also speaking at the Colloque Nigeria summit, the President of the French Senate, Mr. Gerard Larcher stressed that the summit is strategic to French business interests as Nigeria remains the first destination of French investment in sub Saharan Africa. " We want to strengthen these privileged links, said the President.
He thanked Mr Elumelu for his sterling contributions to the economic development of the continent, and especially in the area of entrepreneurship where the Tony Elumelu Foundation – through its Tony Elumelu Entrepreneurship Programme – has been engaging in promoting start-up businesses across the continent.

"Since the administrative handover of the Afam Power Plant in March 2021, we have been working diligently to realize the full potential of the plant. We are pleased to have successfully completed the rehabilitation of GT20, having been out of service for over 15 years prior to our takeover. We are glad to have achieved this feat, using a combination of our in-house resources and other local technical support, with about 20% of foreign expert support in the rehabilitation project, showing our commitment to local content development," Ozoude said.
"It is impressive how far we have come from 48MW average generation, when we took over, to raising production to 120 MW generation within the first two months," Ozoude added, as he expressed appreciation to the company's host community, Okoloma-Ndoki, and other stakeholders.
Dr. Owen Omogiafo, President and Group CEO of Transcorp, who was accompanied by the members of the Technical Committee of the Board of Directors, expressed delight at the commissioning of the rehabilitated Afam 5 GT 20 power generating unit, stressing its significance to Transcorp Group and their commitment to transforming the power sector in Nigeria.

We are pleased at the progress we are making to expand access to electricity in Nigeria through our investments in the power sector," Dr. Omogiafo said.

With the acquisition of Afam Power Plc, Transcorp has further cemented its position as a key player in the power sector.

Rules of Appellate Procedure – Comment Period Closed October 13, 2018
The amendments to URAP 23B incorporate language from the Court's Revised Order Pertaining to Rule 23B, dated September 25, 2013, and makes other amendments that conform to current practice. The amendments to URAP 25, 46, 49, 50 and 51 are to conform the rules to current practice, and to clarify the standards and grounds for review of a petition for certiorari.
Appellate E-filing Rules — Comment Period Closed April 1, 2016
Summary of Amendments. The model for e-filing may change as the courts and lawyers gain experience, but the following points describe the main features of the model that we anticipate:
As in the district court and in the juvenile court, e-filing in the appellate courts will be optional when it is available, with mandatory e-filing by lawyers about 2-4 months after that. The AOC will host e-filing. There will be no third-party service providers, as there are in district court.
Self-represented parties will continue to file and serve documents by traditional means, but will be encouraged to e-mail them to the court and to the other parties.
Printed courtesy copies of some briefs will be required. Otherwise only a digital file will be filed.
As in the district court, e-filing a document has the effect of serving the document on other e-filers. Self-represented parties will have to serve and be served using traditional means, which will include email. Unlike URCP 5, service by email on a self-represented party will not require the party's agreement.
The transcriber will electronically file the transcript, as is now the case.
The record in the review of an administrative agency will be assembled either as a digital or paper file, depending on the capability of the agency, and delivered to the appellate court.
There will be no traditional assembly of the record on appeal from the district court or juvenile court nor an electronic equivalent of assembly into a single digital file. Exhibits offered or introduced as evidence and not electronically filed in the trial court will be sent to the appellate court in the traditional way.
The digital records of the district court and juvenile court will be available to lawyers, self-represented parties and the courts through the courts' e-filing systems. A digital file of assembled agency records will be available to lawyers, self-represented parties and the courts as a digital file. A paper file of assembled agency records will be checked out of the agency or the appellate court in the traditional manner. The court will print select portions of a digital file for a self-represented party upon request and a showing of need.
Citations in briefs and other appellate filings to the trial court record will be by the number of the document in the trial court docket and the relevant page number within the document. The citation to the trial court record will be a link to the relevant page of the document. Citations to the record of an administrative agency's digital or paper file will be by citation to the relevant Bates number or page number of the file. The IT department of the AOC has developed an application to simplify the process of creating links, and the application will be publicly available.
A traditional signature on filings will be permitted but not required. The effective signature is the filer's electronic signature, which is governed by Title 46, Chapter 4, Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. The filer's electronic signature carries all of the representations and consequences of a traditional signature.

[JURIST] French Interior Minister Nicolas Sarkozy [BBC profile] said Monday that he supports changing a proposed immigration bill [text; legislative materials] now under debate [session transcript] in the French Senate to allow some children of illegal immigrants currently attending French schools to remain in the country. According to administration officials, as many as 800 residency permits will be made available on a case-by-case basis to families with children in French schools who have few linguistic or social connections to their parents' home countries. However, critics of the bill say that while the changes proposed by Sarkozy are positive, as many as 100,000 immigrant families with children attending French schools may still face deportation [Mrap press release, in French].
The French National Assembly passed a conservative immigration bill [JURIST report] in May that tightens restrictions on unskilled, non-EU immigrants and requires immigrants to sign a pledge to learn French and to abide by French law. The version passed by the National Assembly would allow the expulsion of children with no ties to their parents' home countries, prompting advocacy groups to pressure government to ease those provisions. BBC News has more. Le Monde has local coverage, in French.


An environmental portrait works well—giving a nice editorial feel to your portrait. It could be you solo or your team (as above). If you work in an office you might not want a portrait of you there. The above team are financial planners who work in a high rise—they chose the scenic beauty of Garden of the Gods over a sterile office. Some companies prefer a mix of a studio look and portraits at their location. Much of course does depend on your final use—if you want just a small shot for LinkedIn or Social media I'd recommend a head shot so people can see your face since those shots run so small. If you're displaying the portrait on your website About page or in marketing materials a larger portrait, often 3/4 or full length can work well.
