Ivan Cleary isn't going anywhere just yet, with the defiant Wests Tigers confident their unsettled coach will see out his contract at Concord.
Despite reports of an emergency board meeting to address Cleary's expected release request to link with his son Nathan at Penrith, the Tigers are adopting a business-as-usual approach in the expectation that their coach will honour his three-year deal.
"Ivan has not asked for a release," Wests Tigers chair Marina Go said.
"Even if he were seeking a release, we wouldn't grant him a release. That position hasn't changed."
Cleary reportedly addressed his players on Wednesday morning, offering no guarantees he would be at the club next season, after Penrith sacked coach Anthony Griffin on Monday in the hope of luring Cleary back to the foot of the mountains.
Cleary was himself fired from the Panthers in 2015 but has made no secret of his desire to reunite with his son, NSW State of Origin halfback Nathan Cleary.
But, unless he digs his heels in and demands out of his contract, Cleary's father-son coaching union will have to wait with the Tigers maintaining their hardline stance not to grant their coach a release.
Cleary remaining at the Tigers until at least the end of the 2020 season once again raises the prospect of Nathan linking with his father at Leichhardt - rather than Penrith, as widely assumed.
Should Cleary insist on a release, though, the Tigers would likely seek major compensation from the Panthers, possibly in the form of players.
For his part, Gould on Wednesday conceded he didn't expect Cleary to join the Panthers in 2019 after the Tigers made their position to "fight tooth and nail" to keep their coach clear on Tuesday night.
"I could never see Wests Tigers releasing him from that deal," Gould said on his Six Tackles with Gus podcast.
"To be honest, I don't think Ivan would pursue (it) if the Wests Tigers felt that way.
"Ivan's not the sort of person that'll push the issue if that's what the Wests Tigers say."
Distancing himself from the discussions, Gould confirmed Panthers chairman Dave O'Neill had broached the topic of a possible return by Cleary during a recent meeting between the pair.
That discussion had prompted Cleary to sit down with Tigers chief executive Justin Pascoe about his long-term future on Monday, where he revealed talking to Penrith.
"Dave innocently asked him, 'would you ever come back to Panthers one day?'," Gould said.
"As I understand it, that conversation escalated over the next couple of days to the point where on Friday, I was informed by Dave that Ivan was keen to go and have a talk to the Wests Tigers about his long-term future with a view towards one day returning to Panthers."
Gould pinned Cleary's decision to meet with the Tigers about a potential Panthers return as the catalyst for the sacking of Griffin, four weeks out from the NRL finals.
He said he had wanted Griffin to at least see out the remainder of this year but said he knew Cleary's meeting with the Tigers would create a media storm.
"I said, 'I can't have Anthony coaching under those conditions. We need to tell him exactly what is going on'," Gould said.
"So we had a meeting with the executives there and I was instructed to inform Anthony on Monday that his services will no longer be required for 2019 and beyond."

Barro Blanco: flooding suspended, international lenders pressured to act
Faced with intense national and international pressure, Panamanian authorities suspended the flooding of the Barro Blanco reservoir two weeks after it began. International lenders are being pressured by international NGOs as they have a key role in settling the situation. On May 22nd, Panama's National Authority for Public Services (ASEP) announced a "test flooding" of…
Barro Blanco: Panama urged to suspend hydro dam flooding amid growing concerns over human rights violations
In a move to bring the contentious Barro Blanco hydro dam project towards its completion, the Panamanian authorities have given the green light to begin flooding the reservoir. Affected indigenous communities still oppose the project, refusing to leave their endangered lands. Carbon Market Watch and other international NGOs have sent a letter to Panama's President…
Paris builds recognition for Human Rights obligations in climate action
HR -Protect Human Rights in all climate actionsIn Paris, governments recognized the interconnectivity of climate change and human rights. With a detailed preambular language that specifies that Parties, when taking action to address climate change, have to respect, promote and consider respective human rights obligations, the Paris agreement sets the foundation to make the new sustainable development mechanism accountable to human rights obligations.
Parties will head to Paris with strong human rights language in the draft agreement
Last week in Bonn, several Parties showed again overwhelming support for the desire to keep human rights language in the Paris agreement. The draft text that will now be the basis for negotiations in Paris, includes strong references to human rights- especially in the operative part of the agreement. This is an important step to make sure that the new climate treaty will also deliver for the most marginalized and vulnerable people.
CDM Board to discuss human rights safeguards
Following numerous incidents of human rights violations related to CDM projects, the CDM Board will, for the first time, discuss options to address these concerns at its next meeting starting on 12 October. It will also discuss recommendations to overhaul the CDM's local stakeholder consultation rules, including a requirement that projects must repeat consultations if they have not been carried out in line with national laws.
Uncertainty over Barro Blanco's CDM approval
On the first of September tensions in Panama heightened when heavy machinery moved very close to the Ngöbe-Bugle Comarca to complete the highly contested Barro Blanco hydro dam, which is registered under the UN's Clean Development Mechanism. This was preceded by the forceful eviction of indigenous people camping next to the construction area by the national police. In response to a letter sent by Panamanian civil society groups, the CDM Board has now reminded Panama about its right to withdraw approval for the project, "if it deems appropriate".
NEWS: Human Rights in the Climate Negotiations: 3 questions asked but much left unanswered – #SB42
During the first half of June, climate negotiators converged in Bonn for two intense weeks of negotiations. With only 6 months left before the Paris COP-21 Conference, negotiations towards the 2015 climate agreement constituted the most important work on-going during this session. But many other key aspects of international climate policy were also on the agenda in Bonn. Throughout these two weeks, negotiators unfortunately made little progress on three main questions to address in relation to the integration of human rights in climate policies.
NEWS: Review of the CDM rules at the Bonn intersessions
Currently, parties to the UNFCCC are meeting in Bonn for a new round of climate negotiations. One of the topics that is on the table is the review of the Modalities and Procedures of the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM). Parties are thereby discussing rather "light" issues and shy away from more conflicting topics. But, when turning a blind eye on the necessity for more controversial themes, such as the establishment of a grievance mechanism, the review of the Modalities and Procedures may fall behind its great potential to improve the CDM for the future.
NEWS: The Global Fund & human rights – Lessons from the health sector
As the financial and market mechanisms established under the UNFCCC struggle to implement policies aimed at the protection and promotion of human rights, these institutions might benefit from learning how other global financial mechanisms are dealing with this issue, such as the Global Fund's new Human Rights Complaints Procedure.
European Parliament discusses human rights dimension of EU's climate finance contributions
Last week in an event in the European Parliament, various stakeholders discussed experiences with existing climate mechanisms against the future climate finance policy landscape, where potentially huge amounts of climate finance will not only be channeled through the Green Climate Fund (GCF) but also through bilateral agreements and other instruments where it is still unclear what types of safeguards and compliance mechanisms will be applicable and how the respective public and private stakeholders involved will be accountable.

Why is the shared tea room low? You don't know this yet!
30 October 2022 by Technology
Why is the shared tea room lower than the traditional tea room? The small head is full of big questions. It must be very confident that the price of the shared tea room can be reduced. What is the confidence to make the price low? Today we will discuss the cost of unmanned tea rooms, business hours and consumer groups.
Shared tea room management system
1. Cost payment
The cost of a shared tea room mainly consists of five aspects: rent, soft and hard decoration costs, intelligent systems, operating costs, water and electricity costs and cleaning costs. Among them, the rent accounts for the largest proportion, and the rent varies in different regions. The rent is about 3000-5000 yuan. , and other hardware and software decoration, intelligent systems can be bought out at one time. If we open 7-8 private rooms, it will take about 7-8W to open a tea room. Some friends will transform their idle rooms into shared tea rooms, and the cost can be imagined, which is lower.
The reason why traditional tea rooms are more expensive is that in addition to the rent, there are also labor costs. Now it is difficult to recruit waiters and the cost is high. Even if the monthly salary is 3,000, it is tens of thousands of yuan a year. The shared tea room just makes up for these shortcomings, because it greatly reduces labor costs. If a business only operates one or two tea rooms, it can be turned around by itself, and it can save tens of thousands of dollars a year!
2. Operating hours
Traditional teahouses have limited operating hours. They are open for at most 10-12 hours a day. If guests drink tea and talk about business at night, additional service fees will be charged, which will bring a bad experience to both merchants and customers. The shared tea room has no business hours restrictions, and can be opened 7*24 hours. The business hours increase, and the turnover will naturally increase.
3. Consumers
There are generally only two types of people in a traditional tea room. One is the business owner or office worker who needs to meet guests, and the other is the middle-aged and elderly people who play chess and cards. For these people, high-end tea rooms are expensive, low-end tea rooms are cheap, and there are restrictions on consumers if they are too expensive or too cheap.
However, the shared tea room does not have a special group positioning. If you want to target the consumer groups to business owners and office workers, you can design the decoration of the tea room to be taller and more suitable for mass consumption. Since then, the consumer group of the tea room will expand. A lot, so you don't have to worry about the source of customers~
To sum up, the shared tea room has low cost, long business hours, and a wide range of consumer groups. Naturally, the price can be reduced, so it is possible to win the hearts of so many treasures!

Magical History Tour - Theatre and Film
UNTER SCHNEE, 2011
The relationship between film and theater oscillates between proximity and distance, inspiration and emancipation. Despite all thoughts of competition, the need for aesthetic and formal independence and the vehement refusal of particular artistic traditions – all aspects which characterized the relationship between film and theater at the beginning of the 20th century – the theatre offers a pool of subjects, models and forms as comprehensive as it is complex, via which the older medium repeatedly inscribes itself within film history. Approaching this relationship from the other way around, film also plays no small part in the "myth of theater" and has opened up long-concealed theatrical spaces and dynamics to the (theater) audience. We have collected several examples of the diverse connections between theater and film in this month's Magical History Tour, which span various different film historical periods, genres and styles. They draw on the wide-ranging potential of theater within cinema – theater as a source of inspiration or a microcosm, bringing together life and the stage and fiction and reality, blurring boundaries whilst also sometimes seeming to mirror the very world itself.
O THIASSOS (The Travelling Players, Theo Angelopoulos, Greece 1975, 1. & 12.12.) Times and places that dissolve into one another: a group of travelling players journeys through the Greece of 1939-1952. Again and again, they perform the play "Golfo the Shepherdess"; again and again, history pushes itself onto the stage. While the play makes constant reference to the ancient myth of the Atreides, it equally opens out into the respective political, personal, and social present of the time, allowing all nature of parallels, connections, and contexts to emerge. O THIASSOS is at once an odyssey and a chronicle, doused in mythology, theatre, allegory, and reality, embedded in a rich abundance of different forms of cinematic expression.
DIE SCHAUSPIELERIN (Siegfried Kühn, East Germany 1988, 2. & 9.12.) 1930s Germany. The actress of the title Maria Rheine (Corinna Harfouch) falls in love with her Jewish colleague Mark Löwenthal (André Hennicke). She becomes a star, he finds refuge at the Jewish Theater in Berlin. She follows him there out of love and pretends to be Jewish herself until she is denounced to the Gestapo. The stage, rehearsals, performances and changes of costume all stand for the exploration of different realities and identities, with the mirror scenes becoming urgent self-interrogations between Maria and the roles that she plays.
WOYZECK (Werner Herzog, West Germany 1979, 4. & 7.12.) An extraordinarily faithful adaptation of Büchner's play, which only exists as a fragment: in a small garrison town equal parts idyllic and claustrophobic, a soldier names Woyzeck takes care of his girlfriend Marie (Eva Mattes) and his illegitimate child. In order to boost his meagre pay, he makes himself available for medical tests, until he finds out that Marie has become involved with another man. In sustained shots, few cuts, and in stylistic proximity to theatre, Herzog creates a tableau of repression, ossification, and violence.
VARIETÉ (E.A. Dupont, Germany 1925, 5. & 18.12., with a live piano accompaniment by Eunice Martins) Dupont's film marks the transition between expressionist aesthetics and the New Objectivity movement and conceptualizes variety stages and circus arenas as places of longing. Trapeze artist Boss (Emil Jannings) leaves his wife (Maly Delschaft) and child in order to start a new life both on and off the stage of the Wintergarten variety theater with his new partner, the mysterious and seductive Berta-Marie (Lya de Putti). When Berta also catches the sophisticated artist Artinelli, the Salta mortale which all three of them perform every evening becomes an act of life and death. Karl Freund's "unbound camera" allows the audience to get right up close to the dizzying numbers taking place high up in the circus dome only to create the "reverse shot" shortly afterwards by taking on the position of the audience seated before this stage of life by means of shots of opera glasses, spectacles and monocles.
MUEDA: MEMORIA E MASSACRE (Mueda, Memory and Massacre, Ruy Guerra, Mozambique 1979, 6. & 20.12.) depicts an anti-colonial work on memory, a re-enactment played by amateurs of the massacre of Mueda carried out by Portuguese soldiers on 16th June 1960 when they opened fire on demonstrators, killing hundreds. This was the catalyst for the anti-colonial movement and popular theater already started exploring it in 1968, while the war of independence (1964 - 1974) was still going on. Not only is the brutality of the colonial power depicted, but also the stupidity and ridiculousness of its representatives, as well as the ignominious role played by their collaborators.
DOGVILLE (Lars von Trier, Denmark 2003, 8. & 15.12.) It is only outlines drawn in chalk on the ground and a few free-standing props that serve to divide up the space in DOGVILLE – a naked stage, a stylized theater set. It is all merely conjecture, a model world and experimental set-up in equal measure, a location for Lars von Trier to stage a "learning play" in nine acts. Grace (Nicole Kidman) is on the run and finds refuge in the small town of Dogville in the Rocky Mountains. The inhabitants' stance towards her changes over the course of time, their tolerance of her presence at the beginning of the film giving way to open humiliation and exploitation. The radical erasure of all stage elements makes the illusionary character of cinema visible and reveals how the audience is deceived.
GORI, GORI, MOJA SWESDA (Shine, Shine, My Star, Alexander Mitta, USSR 1969, 11. & 14.12.) The stage name of this theater enthusiast in the early years of the Soviet Union could hardly have been picked in more programmatic fashion: a wandering actor travelling across the USSR with a horse and cart to perform Shakespeare's dramas calls himself Iskremas, short for "Iskusstwo revoluzii massam", which translates as "art of the revolution for the masses." Iskremas dreams of a revolutionary theater and is even willing to take on his biggest competitor Pascha, the owner of a cinematograph, to implement his ideas. A moving tragicomedy which explores the relationship between revolutionary art and the masses, steeped in the boisterous joy of acting and a naively fantastical visual world.
UNTER SCHNEE(Ulrike Ottinger, Germany 2011, 23. & 27.12.) In Echigo, Japan, the snow is often meters-deep all the way into May and covers the landscape and villages, with the local inhabitants having become accustomed to it over the last centuries. Ulrike Ottinger set off into this mythical land of snow to record their entirely unique forms of everyday life, celebrations, and religious rituals – taking two Kabuki theater actors with her. In the roles of students Takeo and Mako, they follow in the footsteps of Bokushi Suzuki, who wrote his extraordinary book "Snow Country Tales" in the mid 19th century. Kabuki theatre, poetry, and the raw reality in this region of central Japan are connected to form a contemplative, semi-fictional portrait of a magical landscape.
VANYA ON 42ND STREET (Louis Malle, USA 1994, 16. & 29.12.) Louis Malle's chamber drama merges life and theater to such an extent that the transition between them is hardly even perceptible any more. A group of theatre folk meet in the run down New Amsterdam, an old vaudeville and movie theater, where the rehearsals for Anton Chekhov's play "Uncle Vanya" are supposed to be taking place. Without any visible break, without make-up, costumes or other visible preparations, the actors (including Wallace Shawn and Julianne Moore) immerse themselves in their roles and pass from one realm into the other.
TO BE OR NOT TO BE (Ernst Lubitsch, USA 1942, 19. & 25.12.) A theater group in Warsaw rehearses the anti-Nazi play "Gestapo", whose protagonist is Hitler himself. When the Germans invade, reality ends up superseding fiction. The actors join the resistance and their costumes come in very handy. Lubitsch's comedy of mistaken identity, which holds the Nazis up to ridicule, is a film of appearances and exits, of costume and masquerade, of role play and exchanging roles. The "world" enters the theater, just as many small and bigger stages crop up outside of the theater.
VOUS N'AVEZ ENCORE RIEN VU(You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet, Alain Resnais, France/Germany 2012, 22. & 26.12.) A host of illustrious French actors meet at the country home of the recently deceased playwright Antoine d'Anthac, with whom they all had a long personal and professional relationship. They are told it was d'Anthac's wish for them to watch a video recording. The film is of rehearsals for a performance of Jean Anouilh's "Eurydice", a play all of them were directed in by the dead dramatist years ago. Without further ado, they slide back into their roles of yore. Stage, digital, iris and split-screen effects set the scene for a self-reflective game about variation and repetition, past and present, love and death, theater and film, against a deliberately artificial backdrop.
MOULIN ROUGE! (Baz Luhrmann, USA 2001, 28. & 30.12.) Between melodrama and musical, "theatricalized cinema" (BL) and post-modernism: Luhrmann's stirringly sampled treasure trove of references runs the full musical gamut between Jacques Offenbach and Elton John, John Lennon and Madonna, Sting and Freddie Mercury, working with narrative elements from different classic operas and operettas as it revolves explores famous Parisian variety stage the Moulin Rouge, which Luhrmann depicts as a shrill, synthetically gleaming surface of total over-stimulation. An optical and acoustic firework display, within which the love story between the penniless writer Christian (Ewan McGregor) and star dance and courtesan Satine (Nicole Kidman) plays out. (mg)

Do you think this is worthy of a donation??
Living off of cheesecake guilt-free when I finish the race…priceless!
With less than two weeks to go before my 250 km self-supported footrace in the Australian outback, it really is down to crunch time! Training has been particularly brutal, but I'm hanging in there and feeling strong for the race (and nervous!). I really want to thank everyone who has shown their support for cancer research so far… I will think of each person who has helped me along the way during the race and it will help get me through! But I must admit, fundraising is going slowly! I could really use your help! Cancer has intimately affected my family as it has for many of you as well, and your donation would not only mean the world to me, but it would also go a long way towards helping eradicate this deadly disease. Even a small donation counts! It really, really does! Please take a minute to consider showing your support for this worthy cause. Details on how to donate (and get a tax receipt!) are below.
But wait – there's more!! I would really love to get messages from you during the race. Yes, you can write me through the website and follow along with my progress as I stumble through the outback. It should be entertaining so please follow along! All the instructions are below.
Thank you to the following people and organizations for their incredible support!
