Aladdin (2019): An Arab-American's Perspective (Guest Post by Sarah Crickard)
September 23, 2019 / msocampowrites / Leave a comment
Sarah Crickard is a Catholic wife and mother living among Ohio's beautiful and infinite cornfields. When she is not working with low-income seniors as a caseworker, she enjoys writing fantasy, sewing, running and posting pictures of her food on Instagram. She is fluent in Arabic and sarcasm. Instagram: @SarahCrickard
Much to my loved one's annoyance, I have had a very public and long-winded problem with the 1992 Disney movie Aladdin for…ever. So much so that when I finally went to Disneyworld at the tender age of 26 I had to get a picture of myself "fighting" with Jasmine, and my husband truly wondered if I might get us kicked out of the park if and when we ran into that particular princess. It was on the "do not play" list among my middle school and high school friends because they all wanted to avoid having to listen to my analysis of the movie's many flaws for several hours.
Disney announced their live-action remake of Aladdin, scheduled to come out on my birthday in 2019 (Oh, the irony). I don't have much time to go to the movies, so I waited for the film to become available for purchase, and bought a digital version to watch at home. And watch it I did…last night. So clearly I have to write up my thoughts right now. I'll begin with my problems with the original, the 90s version. Once we get those out of the way I can get to raving about how much I loved the remake.
Aladdin is set in the imaginary kingdom of Agrabah. If I had a nickel for every time someone stressed to me that it was an imaginary place, as an excuse for the film's overall cultural insensitivity…I'd have a lot of nickels. The movie opens with "Arabian Nights", a musical narration of the setting. The song makes it very clear that this is an Arab country, even if it's an imaginary Arab country. The song also contains gems like "Where they cut off your ear If they don't like your face. It's barbaric, but hey, it's home." In Disney's defense, when the song was poorly received in 1992, they re-released the song without these lyrics, but my family had already purchased the original on VHS and these are the lyrics I, and many, grew up with.
The song essentially starts off the movie with two points: It's hot and sandy here because this is the middle east, and the people are barbarians. This, while we are given aerial shots of a very Taj-Mahal-like palace, and women in saris walking the streets. The rest of the movie continues like this with random references to Islam and Arab culture sprinkled throughout in the hopes that no one will notice that what they're looking at really looks a lot more like India than the Middle East. If Disney set out to make up a fake culture, they utterly failed. What they did end up doing is poorly representing two distinct and rich cultures by mashing them together and portraying them entirely in stereotypes. The 2019 remake also doesn't seem to distinguish Arab and Indian culture, but I'll talk about why it's okay in the remake in a moment.
The issues continue as we meet our two main characters Aladdin and Jasmine. These were supposed to be the Arab prince and princess I could look up to as examples as a young Arab-American girl growing up in a very white mid-west.
Aladdin, instead, is kind of stupid. He is smart enough to escape the blundering mooks that serve as guards but is immediately bested the moment he faces a semi-competent nemesis in Jafar. In fact, all his victories seem to happen simply because everyone around him got a little stupider while he was there, or because he has a magical servant who can actually snap his fingers and fix it. Aladdin's arc is simply one of a man who starts off a liar and thief, and then in the last five minutes of the movie learns to tell the truth. This lesson is learned very quickly and without much in the way of consequences. He basically apologizes for lying once and is given a bride (who comes attached to a future kingship).
Jasmine is even more of a letdown. She's introduced as some sort of feminist icon, who wants to be free to choose her own future. Her struggle throughout the movie is that she does not want to marry for political gain, but for love. At first pass, this seems good, but if we really think about it, she only reinforces the problems she is facing. She rebels against the notion that she should marry in order to give her kingdom greater security but instead wants to find someone who gives her butterflies. This culminates in her choosing the man who's been lying to her for the duration of the movie. So she uses her "freedom" to make, arguably, a very silly choice. The 2019 remake addresses both of these characters' flaws as well as the cultural setting they are living in.
Aladdin, when we meet him in the 2019 version, is being chased by guards just like in the original. We're shown immediately that this new Aladdin is able to outrun the guards, not because they are bumbling idiots, but because he's smart. When he realizes he is going to be caught, he creates a decoy, and promptly escapes in the other direction, leaving the guards puzzling over where he'd gone. Then, he and Jasmine have a discussion about the fact that Abu, Aladdin's pet monkey, steals indiscriminately, while Aladdin himself only steals what he needs. Jasmine's bracelet goes missing and she believes Aladdin has lied, although we can see it was really Abu who took it. Aladdin then sets out to return the bracelet and prove he's not a liar. This, among other things, is a drastic departure from the 1992 Aladdin who really did just steal and lie because he didn't seem to know any better. Our 2019 Aladdin steals and lies, but he spends the movie grappling with his own greed, eventually choosing the right thing multiple times in the last half of the movie, even when it gets him into worse situations.
Jasmine, too, is much improved. We're shown that her desire to marry is balanced by a desire to rule. Isolated in the palace, she's spent her life studying politics and maps. She wants to marry for love, not so that her loving husband can rule her kingdom, but so that she can rule with someone supportive by her side. We are shown that all the men in her life find her annoying. Then Aladdin steps in and believes that she is capable of making good decisions with or without his help. These two character arcs are worlds better than the 1992 version and give us two real people we can struggle and feel with.
The other improvement is the wider setting of the movie. In the 1992 version, we see silly things in the background like "Hakim's discount fertilizer" a cart of manure that Aladdin flings a guard into. Aladdin also comically injures a sword swallower, snake charmer, and a man on a bed of nails. The cultural notes in the background all serve for comedic moments, and there's no concern given to what snake charmers, sword swallowers, spice merchants, camels, etc. mean to the people in this culture.
I've been to an Arab Bazar in Bethlehem and it was the single most dazzling experience of my life. This is captured in the 2019 version of "Arabian Nights" which has been rewritten as a celebration of the mingling of Eastern cultures in trade centers. Lyrics like "Where you wander among every culture and tongue. It's chaotic, but hey, it's home" the song tells us that this a fantasy land before going on "As you wind through the streets at the fabled bazaars with the cardamom-cluttered stalls. You can smell every spice while you haggle the price of the silks and the satin shawls. Oh, the music that plays as you move through a maze in the haze of your pure delight. You are caught in a dance, you are lost in the trance of another Arabian night."
I began to cry (and my husband will attest it takes a lot to make me cry) when the movie opened on these lyrics. I turned to him and said "This. This is a celebration of my part of the world." "Arabian Nights" is still the musical orientation of the movie's setting, but this time we're told that Agraba is a place where cultures come together and mix. It's an imaginary kingdom where the best of India, the Middle East, and the East, in general, can come together in a dazzling display of human creativity. The movie continues as a showcase of this as we see traditional and modern dancing, spectacular costumes, and beautiful architecture. None of the cultural notes are played for comedy. This is why the 2019 version is able to get away with mixing together cultures. It is a celebration of the East and not a sloppy mockery of it.
I grew up feeling very out of place. I knew from a young age that "Arab" was a large part of my identity, even though, at first glance, I don't necessarily look like a person of color. In the 90s and then even more so starting in 2001, Arab was not a very popular thing to be. I was proud of my heritage, and I never wanted to be anything else. The problem was showing others that. I often interacted with people who felt I should be apologetic for what I was or at least try to be a little more discrete. I grew up in the habit of being a translator for my family members. I became used to the looks of disgust when someone would tell me, a perfectly ordinary American child, something and I would turn to my grandmother and repeat it in Arabic, then relay the response. It was clear to me from a young age that my hair and skin were too dark, my language sounded too angry, and that my beautiful culture made people uncomfortable.
1992's Aladdin being Disney's "Arab movie" only reinforced that we were the wrong sort of people. I have always known this to be untrue, but there's something especially painful about seeing that lie in technicolor on the big screen. The 2019 remake has taken that lie and transformed it into a celebration, and I for one, am here and ready to party.
Now excuse me while I rock out to the song Speechless for the hundredth time today.
Gratitude In the Moment
We've all heard how important the practice of gratitude is when it comes to our emotional health. It's easy to feel grateful when everything feels good and we've all made an effort to count our blessings at one point or another. But here's a perspective of gratitude I don't think you've heard before: Choosing to be grateful in the present. Not just think about the food you have or the clothes that you wear, but gratitude for whatever you're experiencing right here, right now, even when things don't go according to plan.
I know it's sounds a lot easier said than done, especially if you're going through something you don't want to wish on anyone else. But how often do we think about the past and what we want to change? How often do we think about the uncertainty of the future? There's so much in this world that's outside of our control. Gratitude in the moment puts us right in the present.
You could see it as an extension of mindfulness, being more aware of what's around you. It can be something as small as being grateful for the weather or the smell of a nearby flower or the sound of the birds. If you're in a city, pay attention to the architecture of the buildings or whatever catches your eye. These are all things to be grateful for.
One other benefit of being grateful in the moment and mindful of our present surroundings is that, ideally, it compels us to put down our phones and actually pay attention. In spite of everything going on in the world, I sincerely believe we are lucky to be alive right now. I'm not saying the world is perfect, but I think being grateful for where we are right now can help us detach from the endless cycle of online debates and news of things that are out of our control.
Being grateful in the moment is a small drop in the bucket in terms of taking care of ourselves emotionally. Try practicing it today and see if it makes any difference. Put aside all regrets of the past and anxieties of the future. Be here now.

Karandi reviews and discusses anime.
Friday's Feature: Are There No New Ideas?
Posted on July 7, 2017 June 6, 2017 by Karandi
I'd suggest that those who haven't watched Your Lie in April and haven't read yet what happens, that you might want to try one of my other posts and come back after you've either watched the end or someone else has spoiled it for you.
It's a common criticism of television shows, movies, and of course anime, that the storyline is old. We've seen that before. Oh, it's just like such and such. However, is this a fair criticism? Depending on which theorist you'd like to believe there are only between 5 and 10 storylines in the entire world and we've just been recycling them and giving them make-overs for thousands of years. So should originality really be an issue when writing a story?
That said, the main purpose of most stories being made into television shows, movies and anime is to entertain (there are other purposes but that's the main one – unless you are cynical enough to believe that the only purpose is making money) and in order to entertain there needs to be an element of novelty. Can you be novel and unoriginal at the same time?
And that's where we have to start looking at the quality of the story telling and the way the elements have been combined. A simple fairytale can feel like a masterpiece in the hands of someone who knows how to weave it into something magical whereas an epic story might feel like the longest and most boring time of your life in the hands of someone who just doesn't get how to tell a good story.
Let's look at Your Lie In April. With 22 episodes to fill you would think we could cover a fairly complex plot in that time. Over the course of 22 episodes we meet and get to know four characters (and only two of them are really developed). We have the initial refusal by Kousei to accompany Kaori and then we see them getting closer and in the process we learn more about Kousei's trauma, and then we have our hearts broken into tiny little pieces by a death that was incredibly foreshadowed and obvious but still emotionally crippling to watch. That's it. They meet. She makes him face something he doesn't want to face. They grow. She dies. The end. There's some other moments with some of the support cast and while the characterisation of the main pair and emotional weight of the story is well developed, the story itself is that straight forward.
Do we have any other stories that follow this path? Well, lots if you really start looking but the one that immediately jumps out is Love Story from 1970. No, it isn't exactly the same however the impact of two characters meeting and growing together before a death that leaves the survivor with a new direction is kind of the same. And no, I'm not suggesting that Your Lie in April is a rip-off of anything. But we have seen this pattern in stories before. The events themselves aren't new.
So why is Your Lie in April effective as a story? (Okay some of you will say it isn't but everyone has their own opinion and that's fine.)
If you were to ask the viewers what they like about the story, you will get a whole range of different answers. The music and the way it perfectly complements the themes. The visuals and the way they show Kousei's anxiety on the stage. The relationship between Kousei and Kaori. The connection they felt to the characters as the story played out. For me it was the connection between the character's mental state and emotions and the sound of the music. It's the way this story has been told and the way the different parts have been put together that draws the audience in. That said, all of these other elements could still be there and if the writers had decided not to let Kaori die (after all that foreshadowing) I'm pretty sure most people would have ended up feeling rather indifferent. Despite the ending being obvious fairly early on, and by the half-way point outright inevitable, the way this story is told makes the journey memorable even if it doesn't pull a last minute twist of any kind or really seek to break new ground.
Then what if we consider something more complex like Baccano. You might argue that Baccano has a unique storyline and there isn't anything else like it. And it is true that when you watch Baccano it certainly feels novel and different. But that isn't because of the story. What Baccano does is combines multiple storylines together and then presents them in fragments with each story interconnecting with every other through either a character, object, or event. If we were to untangle each character's story we actually get a whole lot of fairly simple plot lines. Again, this is not a criticism of Baccano. The presentation of the story (or stories) is really interesting and there is rewatch value in that some of the connections are missed the first time through.
What do you think? Are there new ideas for storylines or are there just new settings, new characters, and new ways to deliver the story? And does it even matter?

I feel most storylines have been done already. It's tough to come up with something new, but as a writer, I try to all the time.
ameithyst says:
I believe there are no new storylines, but there can be new ways to present it through a variety of elements supporting it, like sounds, animation, and characters, if we're talking about anime series. If it's manga, I believe they are paneling, the characters, line strokes, and blacks and whites. I think it all comes down on how one is able to mix these elements well to make it interesting enough and to get to the fairly obvious ending that makes an enjoyable story.
Personally, I don't mind a predictable story, so long as it's able to captivate me because of the characters — their characterization, backstory, and interaction with others. Plus point if the plot is set in a well-built different world.
Thank you for this great post, Karandi! 🙂
Karandi says:
Glad you liked it and thanks for commenting. World building is definitely a plus when done right.
humbleace says:
I think it's less that something needs to be novel or original, but rather that it needs to be different enough to the people familiar with, aside from the core limited types of stories, the conventional trappings of genres and franchises. Compare the first time someone watches an anime and witnesses the behaviour of a tsundere character.
Now while there are plenty of examples to draw from that actually manage to do something interesting with this archetype, generally they tend to be redone with little to no imagination (beyond character design; and even then that can be a bit too similar), and eventually you've seen it done the same way enough times to know how representative it can be of a show, and thus be a good indication not to continue with said show.
I'm not trying to say that this means a show having a generic tsundere character automatically makes it a bad show, but rather there are a lot of instances where its associated with other recycled archetypes and trappings that together paint a groan-worthy overly familiar picture to the experienced anime viewer. There reaches a point (sometimes fairly quickly) where the novelty of anime conventions wears off and becomes apparent to the viewer how same-y a lot of it is.
That's where having eclectic tastes I believe is important. Many shrug off other genres, and that's all well and good if it's not their thing. But should those people feel like they've exhausted the genres they do like and aren't finding anything "original" or different enough to be excited for the medium anymore, that's where I'd recommend branching out and trying new genres. I think it helps broaden a better perspective of the medium and really makes you appreciate all sorts of nuances and stylings to the point where perhaps revisiting an old show has an added appreciation all of a sudden, because you're now excited over the aspects you may have found boring before you tried the genre that aspect is a convention of.
Apologies for the long ramble. If it's not clear enough I don't mind discussing the idea further another time. I find it a fun and interesting thing to discuss after all.
Thanks for the thoughtful comment. I agree that branching into different genres is definitely a good idea. While shows outside of my preferred genre tend to get dropped faster, every now and then I come across something that really hooks me in. It might be pretty generic to someone who watches a lot in that genre but it feels different enough to me.
gihoons says:
My biggest problem with Your Lie in April was from the first episode, as soon as I saw the female lead, I knew exactly how it was going to play and end. As soon as I saw her, my first thought was "oh boy, she's so happy about life, as if she doesn't have much time left… wait, that's not the whole story is it?" And I felt that… that was about it.
I recently watched Moana, and I felt so hollow. It was not a bad film, but it was so predictable. It went exactly as expected. It had great visuals, character designs, and okay music, similar to Your Lie in April (Your lie in April had much better music). But it was predictable. You get everything you need to know about the series too soon.
By the end of YLIA, I was like "that went exactly as expected" but when I finished Baccano I was like "Whoah, that went completely a different route." I think stories need to bring something to the table to set them apart, and while I did enjoy watching it, there was no x factor.
I don't mind predictability as long as it feels like they are doing something worthwhile in the lead up to the inevitable. It is when they roll out an obvious conclusion like it is some sort of genius twist that I end up rolling my eyes. The Village suffered from this because it was so obvious but they just acted like we couldn't have possibly realised where this was going.
Forgot to tell you, great post!
When I usually watch something, I ask myself what does it do to stand apart from the something similar. And I think this is more important than predictability. I don't mind the predictability as long as it is good. But Your Lie in April only achieved okay for me, it did not reach good. The thing with his mother or his rivals would have been great if they were explored more, but it felt that they were put on the back burner for the more obvious tragedy and the love triangle.
railgunfan75 says:
I think it's true that there are only a few basic narrative structures and that's fine because it gives stories a backbone to play off of. Your Lie in April and other well respected series take that backbone and tweak them just enough into forgetting or not caring that the basic plot structure is there. Your assessment of what makes Your Lie in April is spot on especially with the characters and the atmosphere.
Audiences do like to feel they know what is coming to a point. Tell some on they are going to watch a romance and there are basic conventions they are going to want to see.
WeekendOtaku says:
I think if you break any work down to its most basic parts you will find a simple story that is a repeat of those 5-10 story archetypes that you were referencing. I think human minds are simply like that, in that they comprehend things best when they're able to see the building blocks.
One of the interesting things about the two examples you used though is the variance of the narrative structure.
Bacccano (which I haven't seen, so I'm going off secondhand accounts) tells different parts of seemingly different stories until everything eventually comes together, breaking from the linear method of storytelling seen in the majority of other works.
Your lie in April does this with characters. Kousei's development is still pretty linear, but Kaori's is masked until the very end to deliver the theme of the story. The wave of realization hits you at the same time as the emotional punch which adds even more to that finale.
I'm sure these aren't the only anime to do this, but the point is that just by manipulating the narrative structure they're able to make the story feel fresh or unique.
Agreed if you break things down too much everything starts to look the same. I enjoy Baccano because of how it presents its narratives in a fragmented form before bringing things together. Other stories that try to do something similar however tend to end up a mess of disconnected ideas. It shows the skill in manipulating the story structure and knowing what the point of the story is.
These days pretty much everything is done in some way or another. Take the zombiegenre for instance. It is hard to find anything original for it , but honestly…it doesn;t really matter as long as it is done well. I don't mind the fact that some things aren't original anymore. But a show like Your Lie in April was just simply amazing. And it goes to show that a series doesn't really have to be original, as long as it is a fun watch 😀 Then again, I always like it when originality comes to the front as well. Kado for instance was very unique (although the end ofcourse failed the series too). In the end for me there is only one thing important, is the show entertaining, and able to keep my attention throughout it's runtime. If it is, I don't mind if it isn't original 😊
I will take entertainment over originality any day. Probably while I liked Chain Chronicles. There was nothing original in that series but it did fantasy well.
Jon Spencer says:
Everything is an iteration of some kind.
"There is no such thing as a new idea. It is impossible. We simply take a lot of old ideas and put them into a sort of mental kaleidoscope. We give them a turn and they make new and curious combinations. We keep on turning and making new combinations indefinitely; but they are the same old pieces of colored glass that have been in use through all the ages." -Mark Twain
Don't think it really matters in the end though, so long as it is interesting and it works.
Go Mark Twain. I like the phrase 'mental kaleidoscope'.
It is a good phrase, for sure. Interesting article, great work as always 🙂

Clannad really did do it well, or in a heart breaking manner.

From a comedian to a former swimsuit model, these celebrities have found power in fresh fish, lean meats, nuts, fruits and vegetables.
As researchers love to point out, the Mediterranean diet is one of the best healthy eating plans an individual can embrace to start feeling and looking better. Beyond the short-term gains, we also know this cacophony of protein-and fiber-rich fish, nuts, fruits, vegetables and olive oil is good for our brains, sweet music to our hearts, and a powerful weapon in cancer prevention. Oh yeah – and it's one of the few diets that will actually save you money at the grocery store.
But enough science! What do real people who've shifted to the Mediterranean diet feel about its benefits? Check out these five celebrities who have stocked up fresh greens and olive oil, dropped the weight, and are feeling better than ever.
Celebrity chef Rachael Ray has made the Mediterranean diet a big part of her long-term eating plan and never misses a moment to espouse its virtues. In 2009, Ray dropped two pants sizes and shed 2 inches from her waist after combining her diet with regular exercise.
For those who want to try a similar Mediterranean meal plan, check out these recipes for a tasty olive tapenade, grilled vegetable kabobs, and eggplant baked with tomato sauce.
With one of the most enviable bodies in Hollywood, Brooke Burke knows a thing or two about eating right. The 44-year-old former "Dancing with the Stars" host admits, however, that it took her a long time to figure out the perfect eating regimen that fits her active lifestyle.
"I've tried just about every crazy diet you can imagine," Burke told Shape magazine. "But now I've learned what really works for my body." Along with her husband and four kids, the former swimsuit model says she follows a Mediterranean diet with lean meats, fish, vegetables and lots of olive oil.
"I never miss breakfast," she added to People. "I believe in good fuel and putting the right things in our body and drinking a lot of water and getting enough sleep. It all starts with nutrition."
Want to indulge in a healthy meal that would make Brooke Burke feel right at home? Check out a recipe for flavor-infused olive oil, delicious garlicky chicken with broccoli, and (for those who also believe breakfast is the most important meal of the day) vegetable-stuffed pancakes.
At 63, John Goodman already had the film career of a lifetime. Not only has the actor worked with Hollywood heavyweights like American director Robert Zemeckis and Israeli producer Arnon Milchan, but he's also had starring roles in critically acclaimed films like "The Big Lebowski," "Trumbo" and "Inside Llewyn Davis."
His current moment in the spotlight, however, has nothing to do with his acting and everything to do with his health. Since making a lifestyle shift last year that included exercise and a Mediterranean-style eating plan, Goodman has reportedly dropped almost 100 pounds.
"I took it slow. I just wanted to change my lifestyle," he said in a recent interview. "You look in the mirror everyday and go, 'I gotta deal with this the rest of the day, I gotta deal with this schmuck?'"
Looking to make a lifestyle shift of your own? Check out these healthy Mediterranean dishes to kickstart your new regimen; including chickpea rice salad, quinoa tabbouleh with mint tahini, and the crowd-pleasing falafel waffle.
Asked how she reached her target weight only four months after the birth of her son Leo in 2011, Spanish actress Penélope Cruz credited the diet she grew up with.
Cruz, 41, admits that when she gets a craving for something unhealthy, it's usually a burger. "I do it, like, once a week or once every two weeks," she told Parade. "It's my little treat for myself."
If you're craving a burger, check out this tasty and healthy recipe for chicken burgers in a lemony tomato sauce. And for those who wouldn't mind a taste of Spain, heat things up with this spicy chickpea and spinach stew featuring hot Spanish paprika.
An icon in the world of American television, Susan Lucci transitioned to a Mediterranean diet in 2010 after her husband was diagnosed with an irregular heartbeat. While the shift was a dramatic one from the Austrian diet of "butter, jam, hot dogs, sausage and cheese" she says her husband was used to, he's since learned to love it.
"It's a different way of eating, but a healthier way of eating," Lucci told Fox News.
In honor of Lucci's love for one of our favorite, full-flavored greens, here are some recipes for kale fruit salad, steamed kale with ginger-infused carrots, and a mouth-watering winter vegetable manicotti.

Hopes raised that Moray could produce Tennis stars of the future
4th July 2017 by insideMoray
AS THE WORLD'S BEST Tennis stars seek to wrestle the Wimbledon title from Scotland's Andy Murray, plans are being laid that could lead to a future star from Moray.
The team behind the forthcoming Moray Sports Centre, which last week passed the vital test of receiving planning permission, has revealed that they have been in discussions with Tennis Scotland for the last year.
These are aimed at Tennis Scotland investing in Moray, helping the region to develop tennis stars of the future. Moray Sports Centre chief executive Kathryn Evans is now calling on those with an interest in taking part in the sport to have their say on what could be the first development of its kind in the north east.
Kathryn told insideMoray: "We now have a lot of interest from people in Aberdeen and Inverness – although it would be great to have Keith Meisner on board. He's a local boy and has won the Scottish Tennis Championship and as a junior used to play Andy Murray.
"With indoor courts, there's now an opportunity to be employed all year around as a Tennis Coach, so it opens doors to many. The great thing is Moray College have also started to develop a Tennis Foundation for coaches to work their way through the ranks – and there are a number of Level 2 coaches in Moray, but we'll be looking for coaches from Level 2 to 4 to run the programmes."
The LTA and Tennis Scotland revealed in June that they would invest £15million to increase the number of indoor or covered tennis courts throughout Scotland over the forthcoming five to ten years. That would double the number of courts from its current 112 to 225 – and fill the 'geographical gaps' for indoor tennis provision in Scotland.
Now people in Moray are being urged to support the Tennis ambition by taking part in an online survey to inform Tennis Scotland of the demand.
Kathryn said: "Are you an active player, a parent of a potential World Number One (there has been three in the last year from Scotland)? Or are you who has always wanted to learn to play, but hasn't got around to it yet?
"We need your thoughts to assist Tennis Scotland to make a decision to invest in Moray."
The Survey is available online here – if you are interested in Tennis and want to help Moray become a new coaching centre, you need to complete this survey.

[7iber.com 7iber.com]
7iberINC (sometimes also known as Hiber) is an organization based in Jordan that uses social media to educate and inform youth about environmental, political and social justice issues. It focuses on local citizen journalism. The organization was founded by Naseem Tarawnah, Mariam Abu Adas, Lina Ejeilat, Ramsey Tesdell and Shaden Abdul-Rahman in October 2009. In 2010, 7iberINC trained more than 300 people about social media and advocacy.
7iber.com's mission statement is: "We believe in communities. We believe in people. We believe in social changes. We believe in empowerment. We believe in sustainability. We believe in working passionately."
In March 2011, The New York Times featured 7iberINC and organizer Ramsey Tesdell in a piece about youth uprising in the Middle East.[1]
"Ramsey Tesdell, 27, who was leading the discussion, said that social media allowed young women in the village to bypass the men — fathers, brothers, husbands — who circumscribed their worlds and their ability to communicate. They cannot go to the park unaccompanied and meet friends, but they can join a chat room or send instant messages.
"In a lot of ways, it has taken the power away from the traditional powerful leaders, especially older men," Mr. Tesdell said." -Bullets Stall Youthful Push for Arab Spring

Mu7afazat 3al Bey2a
Mu7afazat 3al Bey2a, which focuses on the environment, is 7iberINC's most well-known project to date. Volunteers have trained young people across the country to use social media tools such as Twitter and Facebook in order to inspire social change relating to the environment. One example of student work resulting from Mu7afazat 3al Bey2a was described by Treehugger.[2]
"Participants... have used their cell-phone cameras to film the garbage piled up in vegetable market and evidence of environmental violations at construction sites. They have mapped the country's nature and wildlife reserves to raise awareness about the need to protect them, and hailed the hard work of municipal sanitation employees."
Organizers hope that the project will inform people around Jordan and the world of important environmental issues that need to be faced.

Hayatouna Al Yawm
7iberINC is currently working on a joint project with International Medical Corps. Hayatouna Al Yawm's objective is to teach Iraqi refugees in Jordan "on how to use various tools, such as a digital camera and a recorder, to create compelling stories about the lives they lead and the environments they reside in."[3] As of March 2011, they expect to train more than 70 young refugees.
Live-blogging
7iberINC also teaches people about the benefits of live-blogging events such as elections. When the Jordanian government went through restructuring in 2009, 7iber encouraged citizens to blog and post in forums about it.[4]
#HashtagDebates
Currently, 7iber works on a project called #HashtagDebates, which allows people worldwide to debate important issues on Twitter. Website Curated.by puts the post in one forum and translates them into languages that every participant can read..[5] "The # Debates seek to bridge the gap between the online and offline worlds, by creating an opportunity for a community of Jordanians with a genuine interest in debating and discussing vital national and regional issues," said website Makanhouse.net.[6] The video below is from a training workshop at Zenid where participants learned to live-blog the World Economic Forum.
Page MediaWiki:TemplateVideo.js has no content.
7iberINC has worked with and obtained funding from organizations around the world. Some include: Internews, British Council, World Economic Forum, Global Changemakers, Project on Middle East Democracy (POMED), Freedom House, European Commission, UNICEF, Beirzeit University, Jordan Media Institute, Yarmouk University, Ruwwad, Tatawor, Jump Start, UNESCO, UNESCOCAT, The Arab Group for the Protection of Nature, Gender Social Fund, National Democratic Institute, Boell Foundation, International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), Public Action for Water, Energy and Environment (PAP), International Medical Corp (IMC), International Center for Journalists (ICFJ), Gender and Social Fund (GSF)[7]
7iber is active on Twitter, Facebook and 7iber.com. Organizers regularly post photos on their Flickr account. #HashtagDebates can also be found on Facebook.

A recent acquisition between two cloud-based companies, Venda by NetSuite Inc., illustrates the dominant role cloud-based systems are playing in business.
Companies entering into M&A agreements are addressing a decision by a Delaware court that held that attorney-client privilege generally passes to the buyer upon closing.
A new opportunity for M&A has grown in an industry that once seemed taboo: the cannabis industry.
Chicago-based Hillshire Brands Co. will acquire Pinnacle Foods Inc. in a $4.3 billion cash-and-stock deal.
Under the parties' agreement and plan of merger, the stockholders and option holders of MFI Holding Corp. will retain the attorney-client privilege in the company's acquisition by Post Holdings Inc.


Want to keep it local and save money on electricity?
There is no bigger challenge currently for householders than trying to reduce their energy bills. The 'big six' continue to monopolize the market, and with resource scarcity, threats of global warming and ever increasing costs of electricity, it makes sense that people want to take control themselves. And community energy is one answer.
Community energy has provided an opportunity for local people to access the value of their local renewable energy sources. Across the south west we are seeing people coming together with their neighbours to take action on their energy bills. Research from Regen SW indicates that the south west spends almost £3 billion on electricity each year. Valuable tax payer's money is leaving the local economy but community-owned schemes provide an option to keep the profits generated from energy within the community.
Wadebridge Renewable Energy Network (WREN) is a leading example of a local community taking action to cut their energy bills and get cheaper electricity. A new "Sunshine Tariff Trial" is in place where households in the Wadebridge area will pay as little as 5 pence per kilowatt hour – about a third of the price charged by most utility companies. Wadebridge found it was spending approximately £10 million on energy, and the Sunshine Tariff plans to reduce that cost and retain money within the local economy. This money can then be invested to improve local facilities.
At the heart of these new approaches is a better understanding of the value of power and how to maximise it. With the government's recent measures to cut subsidies, many people are wondering if renewable energy is still viable. In fact the market has reacted to subsidy changes by developing new approaches and business models that mean there are still opportunities.

New paintings from Yayoi Kusama's iconic My Eternal Soul series will be exhibited this summer
Contributor on April 16, 2021
This summer, both London's Victoria Miro, New York's David Zwirner and Tokyo's Ota Fine Arts galleries will host a new installation of paintings from renowned Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama, as part of the ongoing series My Eternal Soul.
Kusama's work can be viewed elsewhere, too, including Cosmic Nature which is currently on show at The New York Botanical Garden in the Bronx, New York, until 31 October 2021. Yayoi Kusama: A Retrospective launches at the Gropius Bau in Berlin on 23 April until 15 August 2021, while Yayoi Kusama: Infinity Mirror Rooms opens in spring at London's Tate Modern.
In this new major exhibition, the works at hand are an extension of the artist's largely celebrated project My Eternal Soul – a series that first commenced in 2019. Over the last two years, however, the artist has returned to paint as a medium, utilising her trademark of repetition and patterns to build more intimate formats. The new pieces resultantly see a merging of motifs, including eyes, faces and more unusual forms, as well as her namesake polkadots.
The artist has risen to great acclaim for her fusion of disciplines, including sculpture, installation, painting, performance, film, fashion, fiction and poetry. One of her most recognisable being Infinity Nets, featuring iconic pumpkin sculptures and mirror rooms.
The first exhibition at Victoria Miro will commence on 4 June as part of a major exhibition of new paintings and sculptures. Later that month, My Eternal Soul will be exhibited at David Zwirner on 17 June, and Ota Fine Arts will open its doors to the show on 19 June.
Alongside the paintings, Kusama plans on releasing a powerful message to the world in a poem. It will bring a sense of resilience and hope, stating: "In the midst of this historic menace, a brief burst of light points to the future. Let us joyfully sing this song of a splendid future. Let's go…"

TEN COMMISSIONS, NO ACTION. STATE OF INDIA OF "BABOONS"
This is disgraceful. Over 20 years, 10 commissions and still no justice. If anyone defends so-called democracy in India and the Indian judicial system they are clearly living in denial and should be strongly condemned. /// Working within the Indian system is a flawed strategy that cannot achieve any satisfactory results. /// ____________________________________ /// 10 commissions, panels probed '84 riots R. Suryamurthy Tribune News Service/// http://www.tribuneindia.com/2005/20050809/main6.htm /// New Delhi, August 8 Since the 1984 anti-Sikh riots that followed the assassination of the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, in which over 3,000 persons were killed, the government had appointed 10 commissions and committee to inquire into the incident. However, the victims claimed that none of those who perpetrated the crime and instigated the mob have been punished. /// Here is the chronology of different committees and commission, which the government had set up from time to time and their results. /// Marwah Commission: This commission was appointed in November 1984. Ved Marwah, Additional Commissioner of Police, was assigned the job of enquiring into the role of the police during the carnage of November 1984. Mr Marwah almost completed his inquiry towards the middle of 1985 when he was directed by the Central Government not to proceed further as Misra Commission had been appointed by then. Complete records of the Marwah Commission were taken over by the government and were later transferred to the Misra Commission. However, the most important part of the record, namely the handwritten notes of Mr Marwah, which contained important information, were not transferred to the Misra Commission. /// Misra Commission of Enquiry was appointed in May 1985. Justice Rang Nath Misra, was a sitting judge of the Supreme Court of India. Justice Misra submitted his report in August 1986 and the report was made public six months thereafter in February 1987. In his report, Justice Misra stated that it was not part of his terms of reference to identify any person and recommended the formation of three committees. There was only one term of reference to this commission, i.e. whether the violence was organised? /// Kapur Mittal Committee was appointed in February 1987 on the recommendation of the Misra Commission to inquire into the role of the police, which the Marwah Commission had almost completed in 1985 itself, when the government asked that committee to wind up and not proceed further. After almost two years, this committee was appointed for the same purpose. This committee consisted of Justice Dalip Kapur and Mrs Kusum Mittal, retired Secretary of UP. It submitted its report in 1990. Seventytwo police officers were identified for their connivance or gross negligence. The committee recommended forthwith dismissal of 30 police officers out of 72. However, till date, not a single police officer has been awarded any kind of punishment. /// Jain Banerjee Committee: This committee was recommended by the Misra Commission for recommending registration of cases. It consisted of Justice M.L. Jain, former Judge of the Delhi High Court and Mr A.K. Banerjee, retired IGP. The Misra Commission held in its report that a large number of cases had not been registered and wherever the victims named political leaders or police officers, cases were not registered against them. This committee recommended registration of cases against Mr Sajjan Kumar in August 1987, but no case was registered. In November 1987 many press reports appeared for not registering cases in spite of the recommendation of the committee. In December 1987, one of the co-accused along with Sajjan Kumar, namely Mr Brahmanand Gupta filed a writ petition in the Delhi High Court and obtained a stay against this committee. The government did not oppose the stay. The Citizens Justice Committee filed an application for vacating the stay. Ultimately, the writ petition was decided in August 1989 and the high court quashed the appointment of this committee. An appeal was filed by the Citizens Justice Committee in the Supreme Court. /// Potti Rosha Committee was appointed in March 1990 as a successor to the Jain Banerjee Committee. This committee also recommended registration of cases against Sajjan Kumar. /// Jain Aggarwal Committee was appointed in December 1990 as a successor to the Potti Rosha Committee. It consisted of Justice J.D. Jain, retired Judge of the Delhi High Court and Mr D.K. Aggarwal, retired DGP of UP. This committee recommended registration of cases against HKL Bhagat, Sajjan Kumar, Dharamdas Shastri and Jagdish Tytler. This committee was wound up in August 1993. However, the cases recommended by this committee were not even registered by the police. /// Ahuja Committee was the third committee recommended by the Misra Commission to ascertain the total number of killings in Delhi. This committee submitted its report in August 1987 and gave a figure of 2,733 as the number of Sikhs killed in Delhi alone. /// Dhillon Committee headed by Mr Gurdial Singh Dhillon was appointed in 1985 to recommend measures for the rehabilitation of the victims. This committee submitted its report by the end of 1985. One of the major recommendations of this Committee was that the business establishments, which had insurance cover, but whose insurance claims were not settled by insurance companies on the technical ground that riot was not covered under insurance, should be paid compensation under the directions of the government. This committee recommended that since all insurance companies were nationalised, they be directed to pay the claims. /// However, the government did not accept this recommendation and as a result insurance claims were rejected by all insurance companies throughout the country. /// Narula Committee was appointed in December 1993 by the Madan Lal Khurana government in Delhi. This committee submitted its report in January 1994 and recommended registration of cases against Bhagat, Sajjan Kumar and Jagdish Tytler. /// Nanavati Commission was appointed by a unanimous resolution passed in the Rajya Sabha. This commission was headed by Justice G.T. Nanavati, retired Judge of the Supreme Court of India. The commission submitted its report in February 2004. The report said there was "credible evidence" against the now Union Minister Jagdish Tytler that he "very probably" had a hand in organising attacks on Sikhs and recommended to the government to take further action as may be found necessary. The ATR report, while exonerating Mr Tytler, said, "a person cannot be prosecuted simply on the basis of probabilities." /// .....................000000000

Latin American Cinema is Booming, But You Wouldn't Know it From the 2018 Cannes Competition

Over the last few years, films by Sebastian Lelio, Lorenzo Vigas, Lucrecia Martel, Michel Franco, and Pablo Larraín have wowed audiences at many of the world's most prestigious film festivals. They've won Oscars and Golden Lions, earned retrospectives and the esteem of the world cinema establishment. By many indications, Latin American cinema is booming. But you wouldn't know it from looking at the Official Competition at Cannes, the world's most prestigious film festival. In the last five years, only four films from the region (Aquarius, Chronic, Wild Tales, and Heli) have been invited to that most exclusive of cinephile programs — that's fewer than the number of French films playing in this year's competition lineup alone.
In fact, this year's fest has no Latin American films vying for the Palme d'Or. Alfonso Cuarón's Roma would have been in contention had it not been picked up by Netflix; the streaming giant refused to adhere to new fest rules stipulating a theatrical release of all titles in competition, thus leaving one of our most anticipated projects off the Croisette altogether.
Elsewhere, though, the French film fest will have several titles from countries like Colombia, Brazil, Argentina and Mexico playing at the various other programs, including premieres from Embrace of the Serpent's Ciro Guerra and I Promise You Anarchy's Julio Hernández Cordón as part of the Directors' Fortnight selection. We've rounded up the admittedly short list of Latin American films playing the French fest which will be sure to be making waves in the next few months.

— Festival de Cannes (@Festival_Cannes) April 11, 2018
71st annual Cannes Film Festival runs 8 to 19 May, 2018
Director: Cristina Gallego, Ciro Guerra
Set in Colombia in the 1970s, right when the demand for marijuana is set to explode, Ciro Guerra's follow-up to his Oscar-nominated Embrace of the Serpent ditches the black and white aesthetic of his previous film for the colorful world of the Guajira desert. Yet again, though, he's set his sights (alongside co-director and producer Cristina Gallego) on a story about the way Colombian history intersects with its indigenous population. Birds of Passage follows an Wayuu indigenous family who takes a leading role in the budding new drug trade, and discovers the perks of wealth and power, but with a violent and tragic downside.

From the opening of the Great Mystic Circus in 1910 to the present day, we're guided by Celavi, the master of ceremonies who never grows old. We follow the adventures and loves of the Knieps, from apogee to decadence, to the surprising finale, in a film in which reality and fantasy meet in a mystical universe.

They are fleeing armed conflicts in Colombia and learn that their father, who had allegedly been killed in a landslide caused by a mining company, is hiding in the stilt house where they come to live. Fearful of betraying this family secret, Nuria goes silent, whereas Fabio seems to have no problem with the matter. In the midst of this process, the family tries to receive compensation for the father's death and to obtain a visa to emigrate to Brazil. By covering this story, they uncover others about the family's past; people who have been involved in the armed conflicts of Colombia, which already lasts for over half a century.

Julio Hernández Cordón's Cómprame un revolver i set in an imagined not-so-distant future world where women are a disappearing species. That's why its young protagonist, Huck (played by Matilde Hernandez, the director's own daughter) wears a mask. If the armed guys who employ her dad to keep up a baseball field ever found out she's a girl, she'd surely be taken away. That's what happened to her older sister and her mother. Shot in dusty desert landscapes with an eye for an anarchic sense of whimsy (Mad Max meets Hook), this narco-dystopia is a fascinating riff on contemporary Mexican violence.

As Eudora handles attachments as separate files (located inside single attachments-directory), when attachments are deleted or moved to other location(s), file-references inside the messages remain broken. In other words, those references point to invalid (original) locations on the hard-drive.
Link Attachments Tool allows us to update those broken references so we can open and handle attachments from within the messages (Eudora's message windows).
Detect and delete or move "orphaned" attachments/embedded files.
Eliminate duplicate Address Book entries.
Eliminate duplicate attachments and/or embedded files.
Delete unwanted headers from messages.
Displays messages from multiple mailboxes on a single list.
Provides "search on display" capability so only messages that satisfy given criteria are displayed.
Message Viewer allows us to add/move/remove attachments from messages, provides international language support and supports Windows text-to-speech engine.
Update Sent-Received Status - This tool fixes incorrect outgoing/incoming message status.
Update Priority - This tool will (re)set message summary priority to the priority specified in the message header "X-Priority".
Update Attachment Status - Eudora's mailbox summary (or table of content) window displays graphical indicator (attached file icon) for messages with attachments. If attachment-references are added (to messages previously without attachments) or (completely) deleted from messages, TOC summary will display incorrect indicator. This tool resets the indicator so it reflects current attachments-status. Icon - when at least one attachment is present; No icon - when there are no attachment-references.
Update 'Who' Field - For "outgoing" messages, Who field is populated with the content of recipient(s)-message headers (To/CC/BCC). For "incoming messages", Who field is populated with the content of "From" message header. All fields are QP decoded, and contain both names and e-mail addresses.
Update Date n' Time - Sometimes Eudora displays message time incorrectly, when displayed in local timezone, bacuse of the uncounted time zone bias. Use this tool to correct it.

Mental health in schools: a developing crisis
Louise Gilmer explores mental health in schools and the proposed government measures which may help to alleviate the problem
Beverley Bell
In July 2016, the government published a report based on a survey conducted with 30,000 Year 10 pupils to identify trends in pupil health and well-being in schools across England, the findings of which were used to compare the results of the same survey carried out in 2005.
In particular the report found that one in three female pupils are suffering psychological distress by the time they start their GCSEs. Although girls were already displaying greater levels of psychological distress than their male counterparts in 2005, this figure is now more than double at 37%, with only 15% of boys affected by feelings of worthlessness or unhappiness. The report found that these problems are attributed to:
Global economic changes – how this has negatively affected pupils' views on future career and opportunities
Advancements in technology – widespread access to the internet and social media through smartphones and video cameras, places additional pressures on pupils that were not prevalent in 2005
Socio-demographic factors – teenagers from relatively advantaged backgrounds where at least one parent has a degree-level education are more likely to suffer symptoms of psychological distress than those from less advantaged backgrounds.
Adding to this worrying picture, the University of Sheffield has this month published a report on the negative impact of social networking on children. This found that 10–15-year-olds who spend an extra hour per day on sites such as Facebook and Snapchat are 14% less happy about their schoolwork, the school they attend, their appearance, family and life in general.
Clear systems and processes as well as continuous professional development can also help teachers to identify emerging mental health problems in pupils
What is the government's response?
While broad spectrum initiatives are required to tackle mental health issues in schools, the 2016 report concluded that this is a long-term problem and that low-cost and/or simple initiatives will be difficult to identify.
In January the Prime Minister set out the government's response to the 2016 NHS report entitled the Five Year Forward View for mental health. These plans included a £15m reallocation of government funding to provide safe spaces, crisis cafes and community clinics for young people in England. Together with its wider investment into digital mental self-help services, the government has committed to evaluating emerging models and approaches to mental health so that schools can work more closely with local NHS services for young people.
Within schools, the government is intending to operate a pilot scheme to offer teachers mental health first-aid training through providers such as Mental Health First Aid England which is already popular amongst many employers. However, at this stage the scheme is limited to secondary schools only.
While the government proposals may go some way to help schools tackle the problem, mental health charities are critical that the reallocation of funds do not go far enough or will not make a practical difference on a local level, particularly in light of existing budgetary cuts to benefits, and local authority funding for mental health services and support for young people.
What role do schools currently play?
Under Part 8 of the Education (Independent School Standards) Regulations 2014, proprietors must ensure that persons with leadership and management responsibilities at the school actively promote the well-being of pupils. This includes not only a pupil's physical health but also mental health and emotional well-being.
In addition, the DfE guidance on mental health in schools states that schools should identify and address these issues at an early stage by working closely with parents, carers and pupils when making decisions. Clear systems and processes as well as continuous professional development can also help teachers to identify emerging mental health problems in pupils, and make referrals to local GPs, support services provided by voluntary organisation or CAMHS where appropriate.
Although the government is beginning to take meaningful steps in responding to mental health issues in schools, the research clearly demonstrates that this is part of a wider ever-growing societal problem
There are no current plans to further legislate around schools' mental health obligations, however, the research clearly demonstrates a developing crisis to which schools must respond in order to promote the mental health and emotional well-being of pupils today. In the absence of a timetable for implementation of the government's proposals, now may be an opportunity for schools to review their current approach to pupils' mental health. Schools may wish to consider the following from a 'best practice' perspective:
Training – a review of the type of courses or CPD offered to all staff and those in positions of senior leadership and whether it meets the school's current needs.
Systems and processes – a review of existing policies and procedures to ascertain how staff can best monitor and record pupils' behaviour to identify patterns.
Working with parents, carers and pupils – increased involvement and input from parents and carers could help teachers better understand patterns of pupil behaviour related to psychological distress. Some schools have implemented peer mentoring facilities for pupils, introduced concern boxes or built upon existing counselling services to encourage pupils to seek self-help.
External agencies – better signposting for staff within policies when making referrals to external support services or CAMHS in more serious cases.
Other resources – charities such as MindEd and YoungMinds have developed a range of free online tools and e-learning programmes to provide further information and guidance for staff to help identify emerging mental health problems.
Although the government is beginning to take meaningful steps in responding to mental health issues in schools, the research clearly demonstrates that this is part of a wider ever-growing societal problem. We see mental health issues arising across the spectrum of our work for independent schools: parental concerns and complaints; allegations of educational negligence; governance of safeguarding and well-being on inspection.

Relocating the poor to live a good life
By Zhi Xinghua, Zhu Nan Source:China Tibet News 2020年01月14日 09:40
"It's better to move out than live in the poor mountainous area." "We are willing to move out." "Leave this place and start a new life."... Villagers and Dondrup Palden, director of the village committee of Langba Village, Tanggar Town, Baxoi County, Qamdo City, southwest China's Tibet Autonomous Region, were very happy when they heard that the government planned to relocate local registered poor households and people in dilapidated houses.
"The living environment in our village is very poor. We can only get in and out of some unincorporated villages through narrow paths, which is very inconvenient for our lives when the mountain is snowbound in winter," said Dondrup Palden.
In July 2019, 423 people from 72 households in Tanggar Town, including Dondrup Palden, moved into the relocation site in Baima Town. The relocation site mainly involved 3,343 people from 657 registered poor households in 11 villages and towns of the county. At present, all people have moved into the site.
"My current new house is not only spacious, bright, clean and tidy, but also located in a good geographical location, which is convenient for shopping, medical treatment and schooling." Dondrup Palden said with a smile.
According to the person in charge of the county's relevant department, since the implemention of the relocation work in 2016, Baxoi County has planned to build 16 relocation sites (excluding 145 people from 26 households in 2 relocation sites of Yangbajain), and to move 9,364 registered poor people from 1,755 households. Up to now, all the 16 relocation sites have been built and occupied, greatly improving the poor masses' production and living conditions.
Luosong Phuntsog, a villager of Gyire Village, Gyari Town, moved into the relocation site in Nairan Village of Baima Town in October 2018. "My previous house was a two-storey adobe house, with poor living conditions, I had no living guarantee. Thanks to the government's good policies, I moved into a new house. I am able to work out or open a shop now, and I am very happy." He said.
Nairan Village's relocation site involves Gyari Town, Yangba Town and Waba Town which are located along the Nujiang River, with high mountains and valleys, backward infrastructure, extremely inconvenient transportation as well as scanty means of production. Therefore, the government has relocated the whole towns to help local people relocate, find jobs and get rich.
Baxoi County's Jidar Town was a severely afflicted area of Kaschin-Beck disease. To control and prevent the disease, Jidar Town made great efforts to improve water and food. Lhasang Chodron, deputy secretary of the party committee of Jidar Town said, "we built the first phase of relocation sites in Jidar Village and Ouchong Village in 2016, and the second phase of relocation site in Jidar Village in 2018. A total of 281 people from 73 households moved into the three relocation sites, among them, patients with Kaschin-Beck disease were in remission after relocation."
Sonam Tsering and his wife Xiga Bazhen lived in the first phase of relocation site in Jidar Village. Xiga Bazhen was a patient with Kaschin-Beck disease; Sonam Tsering had some trouble with walking. After knowing their physical conditions, local government arranged Sonam Tsering to participate in skill training to master a technology. Afterwards, he rented a storefront in the relocation site and opened an electric welding processing shop, enabling him to work nearby.
"The shop is in a prominent position by the roadside and my business is pretty good. With the government's dividends and ecological job subsidies, my famiy are free from worrying about food and clothing. Thanks to the government's help, I will continue to work hard and use my own skill to make my family grow richer," said Sonam Tsering.

A Decade of Differences
Like the decade that is now behind us, the one we are entering will surely bring differences that nobody anticipated.
By Natalie Dolce | November 15, 2010 at 03:16 PM
When I think back over the past 10 years that GlobeSt.com has been following the fortunes of the commercial real estate industry, I think about not only real estate itself but subjects that, though at least one step removed from the industry, still had bearing on it. About the time we were building a head of steam and getting ready to launch GlobeSt.com, there were the concerns about Y2K and what disasters might befall computers around the world―including those that keep all of the financial records that are so important to real estate. Y2K came and went smoothly, and there is no truth to the speculation that we waited until after January 1, 2000 to launch GlobeSt.com to make sure our computers would be working.

There has been another new development in the growing number of blood pressure and heart medication recalls as Camber Pharmaceuticals announced a recall of 87 lots of Losartan Potassium for having too much NMBA. Torrent recalled 60 lots of Losartan potassium tablets and 54 lots of Losartan potassium/hydrochlorothiazide tablets because of NMBA's presence. The active ingredient in each came from India-based Hetero Labs Limited.
NMBA, a known carcinogen is different than NDMA, which has been the cause of previous Losartan, Valsartan and Irbesartan recalls. The FDA began issuing the recalls for these drugs last year after discovering NDEA in a number of the blood pressure and heart medications. The chemical is a known carcinogen that is used as a stabilizer in gasoline and rocket fuel. NDEA is also a byproduct of manufacturing some pesticides and fish. This impurity has been known to cause tumors in various organs, including the liver and kidney.
At Saunders & Walker we urge that if your drug is on the recall list, please consult your physician or pharmacist to find out if you need a replacement. Also please note that that the FDA suggests you continue taking your current medication until a replacement can be provided.
If you or a loved one took Irbesartan or Valsartan and have been diagnosed with cancer, pleas contact Saunders & Walker at 1-800-748-7115 for a free consultation and learn more about case eligibility and whether you may be entitled to financial compensation.

We've dug into our 2018 data to understand the types of content our readers enjoy most.
We see a lot of content. In 2018, more than 13,000 articles were published on DZone.com and read by our audience of software professionals.
This kinda makes us an expert on understanding the types of articles the DZone audience (and most likely the developer audience) would like to read. In this article, we've highlighted the top blog types, why they're so popular, and how you can write engaging content developers will read.
We've learned that these article types are the most popular because they address a developer's desire to learn. They provide ideas, resources, and tips to better themselves and produce more effective programs.
How can you take advantage of these article types in your own content? We explain below.
Tutorials are the No. 1 article type on DZone, which is no surprise as our audience loves learning.
1. Use real examples with code.
While screenshots of your process are helpful, showing the code (or code snippets) to back up your article makes it 100x more effective. Developers can easily review it and see how they can use it for their own projects.
How is this tutorial going to help? What is a developer or software architect going to take away from the article?
Explaining "the why" at the beginning of an article gives the reader a chance to say, "Yeah, I have that problem. This is going to be good to read." Tutorials highlight your authors as subject matter experts (SMEs) and your brand as a thought leader.
3. Make it easy to follow.
No one likes a tutorial that reads like IKEA assembly instructions. Especially developers.
Use easy-to-read formatting tactics like lists, numbers or bullets, header styles, 2-3 sentence paragraphs, and bold or italicized phrases for emphasis. Also, use images and code samples when possible to break up the text.
Check out a few of the best tutorial-style articles from last year: What Is the EventBus Library and How Does It Work? by Abhishek Tripathi, 23 Useful Elasticsearch Example Queries by Tim Ojo, and Understanding @Output and EventEmitter in Angular by Dhananjay Kumar.
The second most popular article type is opinion or editorial style pieces. These articles range from listicles to industry thoughts to conference overviews.
1. Share resources and tools to improve productivity and grow careers.
Developers are always looking for ways to better their skills. Articles that offer tools (not promotional), books to read, or organizational tips provide readers with opportunities to excel at their job.
Listicles are perfect for this.
Knowing the state of the industry is necessary for any developer, programmer, architect, or IT professional. They can't create new programs and tools if they don't know where the industry is heading.
Your SMEs are great at providing these inside insights. Share takeaways from conferences you recently attended, challenges you're seeing and how they impact the space, and where you see the industry in five years.
These articles can challenge a reader's thinking – and spark creativity.
Three of the best opinion/editorial articles from 2018 are 9 Things Java Programmers Should Learn in 2018 by Javin Paul, Your Brand Is What You Have. Always. by John Vester, and 20 Books Java Programmers Should Read in 2018 by Javin Paul.
Data makes for a good article all the time. And we're (marketers) not the only ones who think so. DZone readers agree as analysis- and research-based articles are No. 3 on their list of favs.
1. Show real-world problems being solved by technology.
What better way to show how your expertise or solution can significantly improve productivity than by showing real-world examples. This allows readers to see the bigger picture, gives them more insight into their industry, and shows the strides being made in technology.
The top analysis and research articles in the last year are Major Failures: Three in a Row by John Vester, Top IoT Operating Systems and Microsoft by Ian Skerrett, and How a Product Owner Can Drive the Feature Team Crazy by John Vester.
Take advantage of the fact that tutorials are the No. 1 article type on DZone – perform keyword research to identify topics developers want to learn about.
2. Don't post just to post.
The worst thing you can do is write an article just for the sake of writing an article. Our audience can see through that veiled attempt from a mile away.
What do I want the reader to take away from the post?
Is the article going to fully explain the topic or skim the surface?
Your answers can help you gauge whether a topic or idea needs to be developed a little more or if it's ready to be assigned and written.
While there is no exact word length that guarantees an article's success, we have noticed a correlation between popular articles and word count. Articles with over 1,000 words tend to perform better with our audience.
This is most likely because the article fully explains the topic – instead of skimming the surface.
Another interesting word stat: High performing articles are also written at a graduate reading level.
You want to get more eyes on your brand and product/service, but using overly promotional articles to do that is not going to work.
Try to find a different spin on the topic, maybe boasting the benefits and how it's achieving real-world solutions (with screenshots) versus a features list and why it's so great.
5. Write catchy blog titles.
Blog titles help your articles get noticed! Instead of using generic titles, spruce them up a bit to entice DZoners to click and read.

So, putting it all together: To engage with our audience, and developers, write content that has a point and teaches them how to improve their skills or increase their productivity. Use your blog title to catch their attention, your words to hold their interest, and formatting techniques to keep them reading.
Happy writing. We look forward to reading some awesome pieces in 2019.
