Movie culture has become part of our collective lifeblood. We live and breath movies. We worship the people who star in them and the people who make them like earthly gods. Much like other human beings, Timba Smits grew up surrounded by movies. His earliest memories as a nipper in Melbourne involved bingeing on the cinema of Arnold Schwarzenegger, an obsession which soon led him to create his own remixed versions of Chuck Norris action spectaculars, with the help of his similarly entranced brothers. This fixation reached its apex when he cued up his 20th viewing of the film Forrest Gump – a work he considers to be an all-time favourite.
Role Models is a new collection which combines nostalgia for the way movies can shape who we are, and the whimsical nature of screen acting whereby a real person assumes the identity of a fictional doppelganger. In a cine-pop-culture series of prints, Timba explores this fascination with icons of the screen by mixing together some of the cinematic characters that have inspired his own life and work. The show includes a star-spangled cast of legends: Tom Hanks, Bill Murray, Uma Thurman and, of course, Arnold Schwarzennegger. From Forrest Gump to Conan the Barbarian, he has created new, multi-tiered portraits of these icons as exquisite corpses – a reference to a drawing game he played as a young artist in training. The results evoke the colorful world of modern movie devotion, but also offer the disquieting undertow of a major identity crisis.

WASHINGTON (Monday, June 12, 2017) -- Senate Appropriations Committee Vice Chairman Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) and Commerce, Justice, Science and Related Agencies Subcommittee Ranking Member Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.) Monday released a letter to Senator Cochran, Chairman of the Appropriations Committee, and Senator Shelby, Chairman of the Subcommittee of Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies, asking that the hearing on the FY2018 budget request for the Department of Justice be postponed until Attorney General Sessions is available to attend as a witness. Sessions abruptly canceled his scheduled appearance before the subcommittee over the weekend, for the second time in as many months.
Sessions' cancellation is highly unusual and breaks from a long, bipartisan history of cooperation with the committee's role in overseeing government agencies. The Appropriations Committee serves a crucial role in conducting oversight of all of the agencies under its jurisdiction, and that includes direct questioning of each agency head in an open forum. As the nation's chief law enforcement officer, the Attorney General is the appropriate person to testify on the work of the Department of Justice, not his deputy.


I am very pleased with the service which I receive from Toni, she is very reliable and her judgements are very sound. Recently one of my units needed to be refurbished and I was able to rely completely on Toni's advice as to what needed to be done. She then organised quotes for me and following my approval had the work completed in a very timely manner.
I would not hesitate to recommend the services of Toni Tsirkas to any other landlord who was looking for a highly professional person to manage their investment property.

10-Run Rule
In honor of Aaron's Baseball Blog's second anniversary, the Twins beat up on the Anaheim Angels by a score of 10-0 last night.
It was a great game all around, one of those wins that raises the level of optimism and confidence a few notches. Carlos Silva pitched well, giving up zero extra-base hits in his first career complete game shutout, and the defense was outstanding behind him, getting an amazing six double plays (thanks in part to the fact that Silva gave up 11 singles).
And, of course, the offense exploded for 10 runs. Everyone in the starting lineup except Cristian Guzman got a hit, Torii Hunter, Corey Koskie, Henry Blanco and Justin Morneau all went deep, and Luis Rivas and Jacque Jones even drew walks.
A few thoughts on the game, which put the Twins at 60-45 and kept them five games ahead of the White Sox in the AL Central ...
- The hype surrounding Silva was completely out of control after he started the season 5-0, and then everyone jumped off the bandwagon and actually turned against him when he went 4-7 over his next 15 starts. Add it all up though, with the ups and downs, and Silva is now 10-7 with a 4.23 ERA on the year.
Silva has made 22 starts, after starting just one major-league game before this season, and he's averaged 6.4 innings per start. He hasn't been quite the ground ball machine I thought he would be, giving up 18 homers and allowing quite a few more fly balls than he had with the Phillies, but he's still keeping the ball on the ground and, most importantly for a guy who isn't overpowering, throwing strikes.
Silva is never going to be a top-of-the-rotation starter, mostly because he doesn't strike anyone out, but he's strong and durable, he throws strikes, and he should be a very nice back-of-the-rotation guy for the Twins for quite a while.
Oh, and remember all the people complaining that the Twins traded away Eric Milton for Silva this offseason? Well, Milton has a nice record because of extremely good run support in Philadelphia, but his ERA is 4.64 in 130 innings, while Silva's is 4.23 in 140.1 innings. Milton makes $9 million, Silva makes $340,000. Milton is a free agent after the season, Silva is under the Twins' control for several more years. Great trade.
- Morneau has really been struggling since all the Doug Mientkiewicz trade rumors started swirling around, so it was great to see him deposit a pitch over the fence in straightaway center field last night. He now has 10 career home runs and 34 career RBIs in 201 at-bats, which works out to about 30-35 homers and 95-100 RBIs over the course of a full season. Over the last 10 years (1994-2003), no Minnesota hitter has had as many as 30 homers in a season and only five have driven in at least 100 runs.
The more and more I watch Morneau, the more and more I see Jim Thome. Now, obviously he's nowhere near as patient as Thome, but there are still similarities. For one thing, Morneau takes that same, all-or-nothing, come-out-of-his-shoes, turn-into-a-human-corkscrew cut on any pitch he thinks he can drive. He's shown more of an ability to take the ball to the opposite field than I expected, but he still completely uncoils when he makes his mind up about pulling a pitch.
Beyond that, Morneau seems to have a lot of patience on pitches thrown away, but struggles quite a bit laying off anything up and inside. That is exactly the situation with Thome; throw him something off the plate and he'll spit at it, but throw him something up and in and he'll try to hit the ball 500 and, most of the time, he'll miss. Morneau has looked silly on quite a few balls up and in that are way out of the strike zone, but, like Thome, he has shown what he can do when a pitcher tries to come up and in and misses.
Basically, if you try to come "up and in" and you end up only coming "in," Morneau will make you pay. You might call that a mistake hitter and you might say that's an exploitable weakness, but Thome has hit 412 mistakes in his career and hasn't been exploited very often. If Morneau can ever learn to simply lay off half of the pitches that come up, in and out of the strike zone, he's going to be one hell of a hitter.
- After going 1-for-3 with a walk last night, Rivas is hitting .255/.283/.399 on the year. During the two years of this blog's existence, I've spent countless words on bashing Rivas, but because I haven't done a lot of that lately, I get quite a few e-mails wondering why.
Here's why ... If I haven't convinced someone that Rivas stinks yet, it's a lost cause. He stunk in the minors, he stunk in 2001, he stunk in 2002, he stunk in 2003 and he's stinking in 2004. Sure, he's young, but he's made absolutely zero improvements in his game in five years, and you could make the case that he's actually regressing as a player.
If you want to read some anti-Rivas stuff, you have two choices; you can either look at his statistics, which do a marvelous job bashing him all on their own, or you can do a search for "Luis Rivas" in the archives of this blog or The Hardball Times. Have fun.
- Henry Blanco has to be one of the streakiest awful hitters in baseball history. He started the year by hitting .313/.411/.604 in his first 15 games, before hitting a ridiculously awful .145/.185/.242 in May and an equally ridiculous and equally awful .154/.214/.192 in June. And now, since the start of July, he has hit .298/.312/.511.
The end result is still a horrible offensive season -- he's hitting .219/.274/.378, which makes him one of the worst hitters in baseball -- but it sure is amazing when he gets on one of his hot streaks and does an impression of an actual hitter. Blanco has also thrown out 53.3% of attempted steals, while Matthew LeCroy is 1-for-15 throwing runners out, which is why, if Joe Mauer isn't back for the playoffs, you'll see Blanco behind the plate an awful lot.
- This thing about starting Shannon Stewart in left field while Lew Ford is the designated hitter is really beginning to bug me. Ford is a better leftfielder than Stewart, plain and simple, and Stewart just came back from missing several months with a foot injury.
Ron Gardenhire has said that Stewart is in charge of saying when he wants to play in the field, but that appears to me like an example of the inmates running the asylum. If you have one guy who has a foot injury and is a mediocre (at best) defensive leftfielder and you have another guy who is injury free and an above-average defensive leftfielder, who really cares who wants to play where? If I see one more bloop single fall in front of Stewart or one more double shoot by him on its way to the gap, I think I might punch my TV, and that's not good for anyone.
- I have very high hopes for Jason Bartlett, in part because he represents an opportunity for me to no longer have to watch Guzman or Rivas, but he looked really bad last night. Of course, he deserves to be given some slack considering he hadn't played a single inning since being called up on June 28, which means last night was his major-league debut.
My hope is that, during this offseason, Terry Ryan comes to Ron Gardenhire with a hat and three pieces of paper with the names "Punto," "Cuddyer" and "Bartlett" printed on them, and says, "Ron, just pick two of these three and they'll be your starting middle infield next year."
- Is Anaheim's infield of Darin Erstad, Adam Kennedy, David Eckstein and Chone Figgins one of the most powerless ever for a legitimate, contending team in this era? Those four have combined to hit 13 home runs in 1,348 at-bats this year.
Even with Erstad missing time with injuries, the Angels have gotten a grand total of four home runs in 419 at-bats from their first basemen this year, which is by far the worst total in the American League. Every other team -- including the Twins and, up until recently, Mientkiewicz -- have at least twice that many, and the White Sox lead the league with 30 long balls from first base.
The Angels rank ninth in the AL with nine homers in 371 at-bats from their second basemen (the Twins have 10) and are the only team in baseball without a homer from their shortstops (the Twins have seven). They rank a respectable ninth in the AL with 15 homers from third basemen, thanks mostly to the damage Troy Glaus was able to do before going down with an injury.

Nuclear deal came from difficult compromises
An Iranian woman shows the victory sign as people celebrate on a street following a landmark nuclear deal, in Tehran, Iran.

The nuclear accord with Iran required a difficult series of compromises for world powers and Tehran.
For President Barack Obama, it meant climbing down from demands that Tehran halt almost all of its enrichment of potential bomb-making material and shutter an underground facility possibly impervious to an air attack. It also meant dropping pledges to secure "anytime, anywhere" inspections and Iran's complete answering of questions related to past weapons work.
But Iran's supreme leader was forced to retreat on some key issues, too. Relief from crippling economic sanctions won't come on Day 1, as he long clamored for, and his country will have to open up military sites to international inspectors at some point if the Islamic Republic is going to fulfill its commitments. Iran also will have to adhere to multiyear restrictions on enrichment and nuclear research and development that Ayatollah Khamenei and other leaders once opposed.
A look at how Iran and world powers found middle ground on some of the agreement's most contentious elements:
Early in Obama's presidency, U.S. officials began backtracking from the long-standing U.S. position that Iran must cease all enrichment of uranium, which can be used for peaceful purposes or transformed into the stuff of nuclear warheads. But Washington wasn't ready to accept more than several hundred centrifuges spinning under tight controls.
The idea went nowhere with Khamenei or Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Iran's hardline president at the time. Even after the relative moderate Hassan Rouhani became president, Iranian officials still spoke about ramping up from some 20,000 centrifuges to some 190,000 of the machines.
Both sides compromised with a decade-long cap of 6,104 centrifuges, and a little more than 5,000 that can enrich uranium. The Americans said that level would leave Iran far enough away from bomb-making capacity; the Iranians emphasized that their infrastructure remained in place.
UNDERGROUND FACILITY
When Iran's secret nuclear installation at Fordo came to light in 2009, the U.S. and its European allies demanded its closure. Not only was it hidden from the world community, the site was so deep underground it was potentially bombproof. Iran said it would never scale back efforts there.
The two sides found a solution earlier this year, making it a research institute while allowing the Iranians to continue developing their technological expertise. While Iran can continue running centrifuges at the facility, they have to use gases other than uranium for 15 years.
In a dispute that continued right up to the day of the deal, both Tehran and the West made inspections promises that proved tough to keep. Obama and his aides issued several pledges in recent months about securing the most stringent inspections regime in history, including the ability of U.N. nuclear agency monitors to visit sites wherever and whenever they choose.
Khamenei's response was one of defiance. In fiery speeches to his nation, he insisted he would never open up Iranian military sites to inspectors or allow Iranian nuclear scientists to be interviewed.
The final deal falls in between. International Atomic Energy Agency experts can ask to see military installations of interest and Iran can make counterproposals. But if the experts accept no alternatives, an arbitration panel would decide what access is appropriate. And the U.S. and its European partners can get what they want as the majority of that panel's membership.
PAST WEAPONS WORK
When world powers and Iran reached an interim nuclear pact in November 2013, the United States laid out its position concerning the IAEA's long-stymied investigation of past Iranian atomic weapons work. The final agreement, it said in a statement, "would include resolution of questions concerning the possible military dimension of Iran's nuclear program."
But instead of resolving the matter over the next 20 months, the nuclear agency struggled to get any answers from Tehran. The Iranians insisted that any evidence of wrongdoing was the fraudulent work of U.S. and Israeli intelligence agencies.
Tuesday's accord doesn't solve the matter. It does create a process to do that, and IAEA chief Yukiya Amano said he has a "roadmap" to wrap up his probe by mid-December. The country has failed to meet previous demands for it to come clean, but the West hopes the promise of added sanctions relief will be the difference this time.
ARMS EMBARGO
While the U.S. agreed to ease sanctions on Iran, it insisted that non-nuclear penalties would remain. Washington had a fight on its hands in the final days of the talks to maintain U.N. bans on Iran importing or exporting conventional weapons, and on Tehran's purchases of ballistic missile technology.
The American fear: Iran, flush with cash from the nuclear deal, ramping up weapons programs to the great chagrin of Israel and Sunni Arab states, and expanding its military assistance to forces in Syria, Yemen, Lebanon and elsewhere that oppose the U.S. and its allies.
Iran pressed hard for the sanctions to be removed. And it divided the U.S. from some of its partners because Russia and China might benefit from increased arms sales to Tehran.
In the end, Iran accepted the arms embargo for five more years, or shorter if the IAEA certifies it is undertaking no illicit activity. For ballistic missile technology, the ban expires after no more than eight years.
Iran long sought the end of U.S. and international sanctions as soon as the deal came into force. But the United States wanted to postpone lifting the most significant restrictions until the later years of the deal.
The compromise: a phased approach that will allow Iran to collect more than $100 billion in assets frozen overseas early on, while allowing the U.S. to maintain the ability to reimpose sanctions years into the agreement.

Housing affordability requires a bold new approach, political courage, regional leaders say
Riverside, Calif – A bold new approach to housing, including the reform of out-of-control regulations, is needed to solve an affordability crisis that is denying home ownership to a growing number of working families and keeping the Inland Empire from reaching its economic potential, participants in a regional housing symposium said today.
"The decline in property ownership threatens to turn much of the middle class into a class of rental serfs, effective wiping out the social gains of the past half century," said Joel Kotkin, renown author on economic, political and social trends, and the keynote speaker at "The Cost of NOT Housing" symposium at the Mission Inn.
Kotkin joined regional leaders including San Bernardino Police Chief Jarrod Burguan, Riverside Mayor Rusty Bailey, Fontana Mayor Acquanetta Warren, Rancho Cucamonga Mayor and League of California Cities President L. Dennis Michael and developer Jeff Isenstadt in discussing what can be done to encourage more housing development.
Southern California and the Inland Empire face a serious housing shortage, which is driving housing costs beyond the reach of working families. The cost of an average owner-occupied home in California is 2 ½ times the national average, while average rental costs are 50 percent above the national average.
Increasingly restrictive zoning practices at the local level not only are exacerbating the problem, they prevent communities from moving forward and addressing key priorities, symposium panelists agreed.
"Housing is essential to a healthy, thriving community," said Ciriaco "Cid" Pinedo, President of the Hope through Housing Foundation. "Businesses make decisions on where to invest based on housing costs and the ability to attract qualified employees."
Cities such as San Bernardino, which is in bankruptcy proceedings, have been particularly hard hit by the lack of housing.
"San Bernardino is probably the poster child for cities that have not had an effective housing strategy," said Burguan. "One of the biggest problems we have is the lack of housing. We cannot police our way out of our problems. Increasing our housing stock is a big part of the solution."
Isenstadt, President of JCI Development Inc., a major developer of commercial and master-planned communities, said housing is a catalyst for economic growth in a community.
"Some of the most successful projects we have seen have started with housing. Not shopping centers. Not strip centers," Isenstadt said.
Warren said a lack of leadership at the local elected level is the No. 1 impediment to the American dream.
"We have one city in the Inland Empire that is threatening a recall over a general plan. That has to stop. Right now, we aren't even thinking about the people, but how we're going to get re-elected," Warren said.
As a result, said Mark Dowling, Chief Executive Officer of the Inland Valleys Association of Realtors (IVAR), "The trend of homeownership is declining. In 10 years, there will be more tenants than homeowners."
Greg Devereaux, San Bernardino County Chief Executive Officer, suggested that housing can be used to address bigger community concerns.
"My experience (as former City Manager in Fontana and Ontario) has been that if you go to a city and say we want to help the homeless, you're not going to get a lot of support," Devereaux said. "We did it in both of those cities by saying, you want to revitalize downtown, we have a way to do it; let us build that housing."
The symposium was sponsored by National CORE (National COREIVAR, the California Apartment Association Greater Inland Empire; Building Industry Association Baldy View Chapter, Building Industry Association Riverside Chapter, Housing Authority for the County of San Bernardino and the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco.

1. The EU offers terms to Ukraine for an economic deal.
2. Russia offers better terms: Ukraine takes the Russian deal over the EU.
3. US-government-funded protesters destabilize Ukraine.
4. Russia sends troops to defend their strategic interests.
If US power-players didn't see this coming, they should be fired for incompetence. If they did, they should be fired for recklessly risking the stability of the entire world. This is a weird reverse echo of the Cuban Missile Crisis, and no less dangerous. Ukraine acts as a buffer zone between Russia and the increasingly hostile forces of the West. By acting to remove this buffer, the Western axis may as well have declared war on Russia.

Q: Reading from binary file into array of records Having difficulty reading data from binary file into a simple array of records, where the array is fixed (via a constant = 3).  I have searched forum for a solution but no joy.
Here is my array structure:
Const NoOfRecentScores = 3;
Type
  TRecentScore = Record
                   Name : String[25];
                   Score : Integer;
                 End;

  TRecentScores = Array[1..NoOfRecentScores] of TRecentScore;

Var
  RecentScores : TRecentScores;

Here is my procedure that attempts to load the 3 scores from a binary file...
Procedure LoadRecentScores (var RecentScores:TRecentScores);
var MasterFile: File of TRecentScore;
    MasterFileName: String;
    count:integer;
Begin
  MasterFileName:='HighScores.bin';
  if fileexists(MasterFileName) then
    begin
      Assignfile(MasterFile, MasterFilename);
      Reset(MasterFile);

      While not EOF(MasterFile) do
        begin
          Read(Masterfile, RecentScores[count]); // issue with this line?
          count:= count +1 ;
        end;
      Writeln(Count, ' records retrieved from file. Press ENTER to continue');
      close(Masterfile);
    end
  else
    begin
      Writeln('File not found. Press ENTER to continue');
      readln;
    end;
end;

The issue seems to be with the commented line...what is the issue here? When i compile and run the program, it exits unexpectedly.

A: You need to initialize count before using it the first time. (You should probably include an escape as well, to keep from running off the end of the array if you get more data than your code expects.)
count := 1;
while (not EOF(MasterFile)) and (Count <= NoOfRecentScores) do
begin
  Read(MasterFile, RecentScores[count];
  Inc(Count);  // or Count := Count + 1;

end;

Local variables are not initialized in Pascal, meaning that until you assign a value they can contain any random memory content.

Uber drivers strike on May 8 before IPO to protest low pay
Uber drivers in London and NY started a series of multi-city strikes on Wednesday to protest the disparity between gig-economy conditions and the sums that investors are likely to make in Friday's blockbuster stock market debut.
The protests arrive just ahead of Uber's initial public stock offering Friday.
"This time, Uber drivers in at least 10 cities across the country plan to stage a 24-hour strike over what they describe as unfair pay and a lack of transparency".
In New York, drivers are striking from 7 a.m.to 9 a.m., according to the New York Taxi Workers Alliance.
Uber drivers around the world are logging out of the company's app to protest its compensation policies ahead of a blockbuster public offering.
Today in New York's Lauren Scala also reports on Amazon Go coming to NY and a suit against Conagra foods.
Don Creery, another Uber driver, said the strike is "the culmination of years of pay being cut by constant rate reductions".
"We want a living wage", Uber driver and organiser Mostafa Maklad told Gizmodo when the strikes were first organised.
Lyft is the second-largest ride-hailing service behind Uber - set to make its own stock market debut this week.
Demands from the New York Taxi Workers Alliance, which largely echoed other groups, included boosting job stability by ending "unfair deactivations", raising driver pay and increasing regulation of fares while guaranteeing drivers a larger cut. Farrell said much of that decline can be chalked up to the average driver spending less time driving. "Meanwhile, these companies are getting rich", Kevin Raghu, a Lyft driver and NYTWA member, said in a statement.
To mark its IPO, Uber says it plans to pay $300 million to more than 1.1 million drivers, a so-called "appreciation reward".
Manchester City squad can earn £15m in bonus, here's how
With the minutes trickling away, it was the substitutes who combined to grab Liverpool a huge, critical goal in their season.
In the United Kingdom, the Independent Workers Union said some Uber drivers are observing a nine-hour boycott. Meanwhile, they've said their pay keeps going down as their costs go up.
Across about 560 Uber and Lyft trips in Seattle, the company kept a median of 31 percent of the fare a rider paid, up from 20 percent around 2013, according to the analysis.
App-based drivers in New York City are already legally entitled to a minimum wage of about $17 an hour, which is $2 higher than the state's mandated minimum wage of $15 for other employees, to allow for expenses.
"Uber/Lyft going public on the stock market will make billionaires of Uber and Lyft bosses while drivers struggle in poverty and the companies destroy the livelihoods of drivers in every sector", the NY drivers' organization says in its call to action.
"The question will be whether this is just conservatism, Uber starting to fight back, or the company hitting tougher comps", Cordwell added.
"Uber and Lyft are unlikely to increase drivers' minimum wage to $28 simply because of the May 8 strike", Beebe said.
Lyft said drivers' hourly earnings have increased over the past two years, and drivers take home more than $20 per hour on average - though the company did not provide a median wage as an example of how that figure translated across its contract workforce.
Both Lyft and Uber consider self-driving cars to be one of the keys to turning a profit, something neither company has done so far.
"Drivers are at the heart of our service - we can't succeed without them", Uber said in a statement.
Drivers are classified as independent contractors, and lack paid sick and vacation days and must pay their own expenses, such as auto maintenance and gasoline.

In 1968, he was the keynote speaker at the Republican National Convention in 1968. Senator Evans is the only three-term Governor in Washington State history, serving from 1965-1977. From 1977-1983 Evans served as President of Evergreen State College, which he helped found in 1967. Senator Evans was appointed to the United States Senate by Washington State Governor John Spellman on September 12, 1983 to fill the seat of the late Henry Jackson.

Resident statto @splstats looks at some of the numbers behind the weekend games in the IRN-BRU Cup, Championship, League 1 & League 2.
2 – Inverness Caledonian Thistle defeated Dumbarton 1-0 at McDiarmid Park to win the 2017/18 IRN-BRU Cup. Carl Tremarco was the hero, netting a stoppage-time winner to earn the Caley Jags the trophy for the second time. John Robertson was also at the helm for Caley Thistle's previous success against Airdrie in 2003/04 – he has become the second manager to lift the trophy twice, following in the footsteps of Terry Christie, who won it with Stenhousemuir in 1995/96 and Alloa Athletic in 1999/00.
10 – Livingston extended their unbeaten run in the Ladbrokes Championship to 10 matches thanks to a topsy-turvy 3-3 draw with Queen of the South at Palmerston. David Hopkin's side came from 2-0 down to lead 3-2, but a late goal from former Livi loanee Nikolay Todorov denied the Lions all three points. Queens were the last side to beat Livingston in the Championship – that was a 1-0 victory at the Tony Macaroni Arena on January 6. Since then, Livi have picked up six wins and four draws to climb from fifth to second in the Ladbrokes Championship table. This run of 10 league games without defeat is their best in the second tier since 2000/01, the season in which they gained promotion to the SPL.
4 – Ayr United defeated Queen's Park 4-0 at Somerset Park to stay six points clear at the top of Ladbrokes League 1. Lawrence Shankland came back to haunt his former club, netting the first hat-trick of his career to take his tally for the season to 25 league goals. Shankland is just the fourth Ayr United player since World War II to score 25+ goals in a league season – Peter Price managed it three times in the 1950s, John Sludden twice in the 1980s and Michael Moffat netted 26 goals in 2013/14. Saturday's win ensured that Ayr completed a clean sweep against Queen's Park this season and extended their unbeaten run against the Spiders to 15 matches.
10 – Raith Rovers kept up the pressure on Ayr in the Ladbrokes League 1 title race thanks to a 2-1 victory away to Airdrieonians. Rovers are six points behind the Honest Men at the top of the table, but have a game in hand at home to East Fife tomorrow night. Saturday's victory extended Raith's unbeaten run against Airdrie to 10 matches in all competitions – the Diamonds' last victory over Rovers was a 2-0 success in a League Cup tie in August 2011.
5 – Clyde moved to within two points of the Ladbrokes League 2 promotion play-off spots thanks to a 3-0 victory over title-chasing Montrose at Broadwood. The Bully Wee have taken 28 points from their last 12 matches, a run which started with a 3-1 win at Links Park in their previous meeting with the Gable Endies back on January 20. Prior to that, Clyde were 17 points off the play-off spots and just five points ahead of bottom club Cowdenbeath. Danny Lennon's side have recorded five consecutive home league wins for the first time since September-December 1998.

Aeolian Harp and Sculptures for Perrotts Folly 10 May – 10 June 2018
Published by admin On May 4, 2018
Ikon returns to Perrott's Folly this Spring, to present Aeolian Harp and Sculptures for Perrott's Folly, a unique sound installation by artist and musician Max Eastley.
Max Eastley is an internationally recognised artist who combines kinetic sculpture and sound into a unique art form. His sculptures exist on the border between the natural environment and human intervention and use the driving forces of electricity, wind, water and ice.
The complexity of sound that I aim for is the complexity of sound one perceives in a natural environment. I would not call myself a landscape artist, more an artist who would like to bring attention to landscape – Max Eastley
For this installation, eight lightweight Aeolian harps are mounted on the roof of Perrott's Folly, a landmark 18th century tower in Birmingham's Ladywood district. The sound made by wind blowing through the harps is amplified and fed through loudspeakers at lower levels to combine with the sounds emanating from a number of acoustic sculptures, transforming the interior of the tower into an immersive aural experience.
At a time when the behaviour of our natural environment is of such grave concern the harnessing of natural forces to create extraordinary sonic phenomena seems particularly appropriate. Building Aeolian installations in public spaces guides people's attention to the wind, the atmosphere, the climate and the sounds of the environment, and I hope that it emphasises how little most of us know about these things, and alerts us to the fact that we should know more about them, because we are in the process of changing them – Max Eastley
Eastley first worked with Ikon in 1979 to produce Installation No. 3, a sculptural sound piece installed in the basement of Ikon's former home on John Bright Street. The programme also included a performance of Eastley's Whirled Music, with Steve Beresford and David Toop.
On Sunday 3 June 2018, Eastley performs with artist Rie Nakajima at Ikon Gallery as part of Cafe OTO's evening of music.
Aeolian Harp and Sculptures for Perrott's Folly is open Friday – Sunday and Bank Holiday Monday, 12–5pm, with free entry. Perrott's Folly is located 20 minutes walk from Ikon and 5 minutes from Hagley Road. Please note the Folly is only accessible via a steep spiral staircase. Full address: Perrott's Folly, Waterworks Road, Edgbaston, Birmingham, B16 9AL.
Audio engineering by Dave Hunt. Presented in partnership with RE:Future Collective. This exhibition forms part of Ikon's Slow Boat programme Looping the Loop (2017-2019) in Birmingham's Ladywood district. It is supported by Arts Council England Strategic Touring, Michael Marsh Charitable Trust, W.A. Cadbury Trust, Grantham Yorke Trust, Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council and the Canal and River Trust.

Dogs: vicious animal or valuable asset?
in Nursing News
As a trauma nurse for more than a decade, I have seen some horrendous injuries caused by dog bites.
These have been distressing for the child, families and indeed the staff involved.
Much needs to be done to reduce the incidence of dog bites and there are some strategies mentioned in this article that may help mitigate this increasing emotional and financial burden on society.
However, not all dogs are vicious (though any dog can bite) and over the centuries canines have been trained as valuable assets to assist people and indeed some have become a much-loved family member.
The dog, our oldest pet, was domesticated 14,000 years ago and currently there are an estimated 700 million domestic dogs worldwide, with approximately just over five million dogs across Australia.
It is unfortunate, though not surprising, that there are millions of people injured by dogs each year globally.
In Australia, according to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW) dog attacks result in more than 2,000 hospital admissions per year.
Dog bites make up approximately 1% of all Emergency Department (ED) presentations but are higher in the paediatric population.
Children aged 0-4 years tend to sustain facial and head injuries and those between five and nine years tend to sustain extremity injuries and occasionally bites to the torso in addition to bites to the face and head.
Children's natural behaviours put them at risk for dog bite injuries, including actions such as running, yelling, grabbing, hitting, quick and darting movements and maintaining eye contact.
The close proximity of a child's face to the dog's face also increases the risk that facial injuries will occur.
Children are generally inexperienced when handling dogs, but with good early parental education, it is possible to reduce the incidence of dog bite-related injuries in children.
The types of wounds more commonly sustained following dog bites are puncture wounds or crush wounds.
These injuries result in pain due to disruption of the skin integrity.
Treatment considerations include antibiotics for infection prevention, and tetanus immunisation depending on the child's vaccination status.
Surgery is required to thoroughly clean and remove all debris, further surgery to repair the wound and surgical reconstruction is often required.
The overall medical treatment of admission, medication, surgery and follow-up after dog bite injuries represent a significant financial burden to society.
Additionally, there is psychological distress for the child and emotional distress for the family and often euthanasia for the dog.
Dog bites have an incidence of infection of approximately 10%, these are predominately mixed aerobes and anaerobic infections.
The dog mouth flora includes pasteurella caninus, gram negative and non-motile coccobacillus and these present in the wound if left untreated, can cause skin necrosis and sepsis.
Rabies, though rare, should also be considered if the bite was from a dingo, a stray dog, an unwell-looking dog, or if the owner cannot produce evidence of the canine vaccinations.
At Queensland Children's Hospital, there has been a staggering increase of almost 50 per cent of patients admitted for greater than 24 hours following a dog bite, when comparing data from 2020 to 2021.
Recognising the potentially devastating and widespread effects of dog bites, there is a dedicated trauma nurse navigator and a post-trauma social worker that provides a clinical, counselling and support service for children (and their families) that have been admitted following a dog bite.
The aim of this service is to improve the child's well-being during their admission, with follow-up continuing up to two years after discharge.
The National Coronial Information System noted on average that 1–2 people died due to dog bites each year in Australia, between July 2000 and November 2010.
Sadly, there continues to be horrific and heart-breaking cases of fatal dog attacks.
As recent as January 2022, a 2-year-old boy was mauled to death in the Cassowary Coast region of Queensland.
In March 2022 in the Isle of Wight, UK, a 17-month-old girl was tragically fatally attacked by a dog that her parents bought only one week preceding the event.
To mitigate such incidents, more than 20 countries, worldwide, have tried to ban certain aggressive dog breeds under the well-intentioned auspices of Breed Specific Legislation.
The pit bull terrier has been the most common subject of restrictions and was deemed responsible for the majority of dog bite fatalities in the 1980s.
This breed was eclipsed by rottweilers in 1990.
The Australian Royal Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA) does not support breed-specific legislation.
Based on international scientific evidence they believe any dog may be dangerous, and dogs should not be declared as 'dangerous' on the basis of their breed.
According to Professor Kimble et al (2011), there are some basic rules that children should be taught to reduce the incidence of dog bites, including but not limited to:
Asking for permission from the owner before slowly approaching an unfamiliar dog
to pat them
Standing still if approached by a dog and if knocked over, rolling into a ball position,
and lying still
Some other strategies include never disturbing a dog that is sleeping, eating or
caring for puppies
The Royal Australasian College of Surgeons (RACS) recommend the development of education programs for dog owners and potential dog owners, with the onus of responsibility for dogs, on the owner.
They recommend the registration of all dogs, desexing of dogs, and a restriction on the number of dogs per household.
The question remains, is there any value in dog ownership? Do you they serve a useful purpose?
Several themes have emerged from the research on the owner-dog relationship including increase independence, confidence, improved social interactions, as well as providing companionship and safety.
Kennel Club studies in the USA have shown that stroking and petting dogs lowers blood pressure and reduces levels of the stress hormone cortisol and this in turn can lessen cardiovascular problems.
Dogs have also been successfully trained into magnificent roles such as assistance or service dogs to assist people with disabilities.
For over 30 years in Australia, highly trained mobility assistance dogs have been placed with people suffering from physical disabilities such as cerebral palsy, spina bifida, multiple sclerosis, and those that have been significantly injured in serious accidents.
Some medical detection dogs have been taught to detect cancer, though odour signatures in a person's skin, urine, and sweat, which if diagnosed early can lead to better outcomes for the person concerned.
Delta Society Australia offer a Delta Therapy-Dog-program which is a world-leading provider
of animal-assisted services with dogs that visit hospitals, aged care facilities, dementia wards, mental health facilities, palliative care units, disability services, health clinics, schools and correctional facilities every week.
More recently, these therapy dogs have provided comfort to both hospital staff and patients during the COVID-19 pandemic.
This too has been extremely successful with positive results reported by the healthcare staff.
The University of Adelaide is now participating in an international research program, specifically training medical detection dogs to be able to rapidly screen and identify positive COVID-19 cases.
These dogs are detecting COVID-19 faster, earlier and more reliably than any rapid antigen test currently used worldwide, with over 97 per cent accuracy.
Today, approximately 40 per cent of Australian households include at least one dog, making them the most popular type of pet.
To mitigate the incidence of dog bites, the responsibility lies firmly with the owner of the dog, in addition to puppy training and obedience classes, plus close supervision around children.
The enduring relationship between canine and handler is a close symbiotic relationship born from the everlasting bond of companionship, loyalty, fun and friendship.
Domestic dogs are our four-legged friends that provide constant entertainment and unconditional pristine love.
Most responsible dog owners know that life is better with a dog.

"I've always wanted to have a book festival in town," says Scott Meyer of Millbrook's Merritt Books, "For years I've wanted one." Meyer's dream is about to come true. On May 16 and 17, the WAMC commentator and former Millbrook Business Association president will oversee the first edition of the Millbrook Book Festival.
Nestled just east of historic Hyde Park, Millbrook is a village of 1,400 with a photogenic main street, an outsized helping of community spirit—and, it would seem, a ferocious commitment to literacy. During the festival, hardware stores and craft shops will sport decorations along bookish lines, inviting strollers to browse. Millbrook resident Valerie Martin, whose novels include Mary Reilly, Trespass, and Property, proclaims her hometown "very walkable," adding that "the Millbrook library is beautiful, with a great children's room, one of the best I've seen anywhere."
Martin is a veteran of numerous book festivals, including the Tennessee Williams and Faulkner festivals in New Orleans, Washington's Fall for the Books, and others in Minneapolis, Key West, and South Carolina. "Valerie told us how to do it," says Meyer. She wasn't alone: Over 100 volunteers were involved in the year-long planning process, and local businesses signed on enthusiastically.
Millbrook is home to the Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies, a world leader in the ecological research field and the host of the festival's opening on Friday, May 16. Senior research specialist Heather Malcom is "exceedingly excited" by the symbiosis. "The whole scientific community goes to the bookstore–everybody knows Scott," she explains. "This was a perfect match—we're celebrating our 25th anniversary, and here's someone who wanted to bring the public to us." From 4 to 6pm, the institute will offer open lab tours and activities for all ages, including fog collecting, determining the age of Hudson River clams by counting shell ridges like tree rings, checking water Ph content, and viewing Lyme-bearing ticks through a microscope ("They'll be dead ticks," Malcom reassures with a laugh). A reception from 6 to 7pm will feature refreshments and a performance by eco-folksinger Bindlestick Bill. At 7pm, New York Times science writer Andrew Revkin will headline a panel discussion on the population explosion and climate change.
May 17's lineup is remarkably diverse, starting with a pancake breakfast at Grace Church. Merritt will sponsor booksignings all day, with literary panels on spirituality, history, children's books, poetry, mystery, literary fiction, and romance at various venues. Participating authors include Valerie Martin, National Geographic photographer Justin Guariglia, Jennifer Donnelly (The Winter Rose), Susan Richards (Chosen Forever), Bruce Chilton (Abraham's Curse), Fergus Bordewich (Washington), Edgar Award nominee Julia Spencer-Fleming, and dozens more. Admission is free.
Interspersed throughout are child-friendly happenings: a parade ("dress as your favorite book character"), storytelling, and readings by young writers. A soup-and-salad dinner at St. Joseph's School spotlights recipes by cookbook author Brother Victor. And many Millbrook restaurants will offer special book-themed lunches, including Les Baux (A Year in Provence); Piccolo (Under the Tuscan Sun); Slammin' Salmon (Moby Dick); and Babette's (what else but Babette's Feast?)
"It's a very unique village," Meyer says, sharing his favorite compliment from a bookstore patron. When asked if she needed help, she shook her head, saying, "I came in just to feel better." Meyer beams. "We're bibliotherapists here."
The Millbrook Book Festival will be held at various locations in Millbrook on May 16 and 17. For a full schedule and list of participating authors, visit www.millbrookbookfestival.com.

How We Establish Biotech Crop Safety: Product Safety for Food and Feed
By K. Sauer 3/30/2009
What is substantial equivalence?
The concept of substantial equivalence is widely accepted as the basis for proving the safety of biotech crops. It was introduced by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) in 1993, and has been validated by many international scientific and governmental organizations since.
According to the Biotechnology Industry Organization's (BIO) Web site, "simply stated, substantial equivalence holds that a biotech food is as safe to consume as an existing food with the same compositional and nutritional characteristics and a history of safe use." Basically, if the biotech crop has the same make-up and nutrients as its conventional counterpart, it's considered as safe as that counterpart. Learn more about the history of and details behind substantial equivalence.
The safety of biotech crops is often questioned by anti-GM groups and sometimes consumers. But biotech crops undergo more testing and oversight before commercialization than any other agricultural products, including conventional crops.
Part one of this series outlined the role of Monsanto's Product Characterization and Detection Methods Center in determining whether a biotech crop is as safe as its conventional equivalent. But once that testing is complete and data has been generated, the Product Safety Center takes over for further testing—this time to conduct safety assessments to determine food and feed safety.
"Essentially, with the comparative safety assessment we're trying to generate data to determine if the new product is substantially equivalent to products that have a history of safe consumption, with the exception of the introduced trait," Kevin Glenn, Monsanto's product safety center lead, said. "The underlying concept, then, is any differences are subjected to supplemental safety assessment."
This safety assessment includes several components, including composition analysis and animal performance assessments.
For the composition analysis, the team characterizes the forage part of the plant, which is what animals eat, and compares it to its conventional counterpart to ensure they're compositionally the same. When analyzing the composition of the grain, they put it through an extensive array of tests looking at the known nutrients and antinutrients. These extensive tests are done because grain is the major component of animal feed rations and is what typically enters the human food chain.
"We basically are establishing the concept that new product X is substantially equivalent to products that we already know how to process and consume and have a history of safe consumption," Glenn said.
Animal Performance Assessments
But even if Monsanto knows the new biotech products are compositionally the same as their conventional counterparts, Monsanto generates additional assurances that food and feed from these products are as safe as food and feed from existing conventional products--through animal performance assessments.
"With many of the products we work with—corn, soy, cottonseed—most of what is grown commercially is used for animal consumption," Glenn said. "So, another part of the Product Safety Center is conducting a standard 42-day broiler study on chickens."
This study looks at the development and size of the animal as it's fed the product with the new gene inserted.
But why chickens?
"They're actually an incredible species, if you think about it," Glenn said. "They start at around 35-45 grams and within six weeks become a 2-3 kilogram bird. That's incredible growth, and they've been bred so selectively for that kind of growth that almost any perturbation in the nutrients or antinutrients that might be in a new product would cause an adverse growth rate.
"Just comparing the feed efficiency and growth in a study with feed from biotech crops to one with conventional crops gives a pretty good idea of whether there are any important differences related to the new product," he continued.
In addition to the growth and development testing in the broiler chicken study, the team also conducts a 90-day rat feeding study with most products, which is a toxicology study.
During the course of the 90-day toxicology study, Glenn said they can conduct well over a hundred different assessments on things such as blood chemistries, tissue pathology and organ weights. This helps toxicologists determine if the new product is having any undesirable effects on the health or physiology of the animals that might predict potential adverse effects for humans.
"All of these assessments have some known association with important health or physiological functions in the animal that would be impacted and give us a clue if there is some toxicity," Glenn said.
"For example, if there's a perturbation in liver weight, then we would look at the liver tissue and blood chemistry to see if liver enzymes have also been inadvertently changed," he continued. "That might give us a clue there might be some liver toxicity that needs further assessment to see if it is related to the introduction of the biotech trait into the crop."
But according to Glenn these rat toxicology studies aren't very exciting to him because for biotech products, he finds it's a fairly boring result—nothing happens.
This is more impressive when you consider today's toxicology assessments look at absolute extremes to give an added assurance of safety. For example, in developed countries, diets are diverse and most people don't eat large amounts of a single grain, but the rats in the study do. If the rats don't show any issues from such a diet, it can be assumed a human, who would likely eat foods from this biotech crop as a smaller portion of their diet, would also not have any issues.
To date, no commercialized biotech products have ever been associated with an actual hazard to humans or animals. Continued introduction of biotech products will be subjected to the same thorough testing and analysis done by not only Monsanto scientists, but many others around the world to ensure only products that are as safe as their conventional counterparts will ever make it to market.

Bullying around
China threatens India with 'reverse sanctions' over Huawei 5G trials
China warns there would be consequences for Indian firms if Huawei is blocked from 5G trails.
Harish Jonnalagadda
A new Reuters report suggests Chinese is threateing India with sanctions if Huawei is prevented from doing business in the country.
India is set to hold 5G trails, and the government hasn't decided if Huawei should be included yet.
For now though, no evidence of a backdoor has been found in Huawei's networking infrastructure.
India is set to commence its 5G trails, with six manufacturers already in contention, including the likes of Nokia, Ericsson, and Samsung. The Department of Telecommunications hasn't made up its mind about including Huawei in the trails — and it now looks like China is forcing the Indian government's hand. According to a report published by Reuters, Chinese officials are threatening India with "reverse sanctions" if Huawei is blocked from participating in the 5G trials.
The publication cites comments made during a meeting attended by India's ambassador to China Vikram Misri in Beijing, where Chinese officials hinted that Indian firms doing business in China would face consequences if Huawei wasn't included in the trials because of pressure from Washington.
In a statement to Reuters, Huawei spokeswoman Hua Chunying said:
Huawei has carried out operations in India for a long time, and has made contributions to the development of Indian society and the economy that is clear to all.
On the issue of Chinese enterprises participating in the construction of India's 5G, we hope the Indian side makes an independent and objective decision, and provides a fair, just and non-discriminatory commercial environment for Chinese enterprises' investment and operations, to realize mutual benefit.
A tussle over Huawei would further strain relations between India and China, at a time when neither country could afford it. India is in the midst of an economic slowdown, and China is battling with the U.S. over a trade war that doesn't seem to have an end in sight.
For what it's worth, Indian government officials have found no evidence of a backdoor in Huawei's infrastructure:
The committee has found no evidence to suggest Huawei has used "back-door" programs or malware to collect data in its current operations in India, the first source and another official in the federal telecoms ministry said.
Furthermore, the interior ministry hasn't issued any directives to block Huawei outright — like other countries — so it is possible the Chinese company will be allowed to take part. According to an unnamed official speaking to Reuters:
We can't simply reject them just because they are Chinese.

I just recently updated Avid to 2018.5 and even though the DX Drivers are installed and up to date MC only recognizes my BM Decklink Card. If I uninstall the BM Drivers MC sees the DX but as soon as I reinstall them it reverts back to the BM Card. What's even stupider is that Pro Tools works fine with either the DX or BM Card but not Avid. I must have the Decklink for Resolve and the DX is a must at the moment because I have a bunch of Tape Outputs to do with Closed Captioning.
I really don't want to keep installing and uninstalling the BM Drivers every time I need the Nitris DX.
I will be upgrading to High Sierra soon so hopefully it works properly there but I'm not crossing my fingers on that one.

Why their coffee is exceptional.
Stonehaus restaurant mostly uses Dried Green Coffee that is referred to as parchment coffee. The parchment coffee is further processed through milling before it is exported. The milling of coffee beans is done by putting them through a hulling machine to take off the dried pulp, parchment, and silver skin. Any leftover silver skin will be removed the polishing phase. Grading and sorting the beans for size, color and weight are the last steps in the milling process. These steps remove any defective coffee beans and can be done by hand and machinery. These steps are followed to prepare best quality coffee and by buying these coffee beans, you will definitely get the value of your money.
After the preparation of Green Coffee Beans, it's the time to pack it properly, so that it can maintain its quality and reputation for long days. The beans are further processed by coffee companies by way of roasting, grinding and bagging, which one later buys and brews for consumption. The demand of such types of beans is quite extending and you should prefer buying such beans. This will definitely give you a unique taste that you have never experienced in your life. You will definitely get the value of your money by buying such items. If you are in need of coffee in the Westlake Village area, stop by the Stonehaus for their selection.

I have two reactive Apriori: first for the panel 'Experiment 1' called 'rules' and 'rules.all()', and second for the panel 'Experiment 2' called 'rules2' and 'rules.all2()'.
Apriori for the panel 'Experiment 1' and 3 graphs for this panel (scatter plot,matrix plot,bodový graf) are running right and apriori for the panel 'Experiment 2' is running right.
But when I clicked on the scatter plot for the panel 'Experiment 2', R gives me on the screen scatter plot for the data from apriori in the panel 'Experiment 1'.
Where is the problem ?
Why R plotting the same graph in both panels ?
Thanks for help.

A: You can't place individual sidebarPanels inside the tabPanels (see here). Instead, you can have one sidebarPanel where you have stuff conditional on the tabPanel that is activated.
