Opening in Orlando: 'Jupiter Ascending,' 'Seventh Son,' 'The Spongebob Movie: Sponge out of Water'
by Steve Schneider
Jupiter Ascending: Saying that the Wachowski sibs make commercial disappointments is like calling the Holocaust "regrettable." Speed Racer, Cloud Atlas ... their list of expensive flops is longer than Michael Fassbender's inseam. Into that tradition walks Jupiter Ass Ending (bless you, Autocorrect!), a sci-fi actioner that puts Channing Tatum on the trail of a princess played by Mila Kunis. Postponed from its planned summer 2014 release to a less (ahem!) competitive February 2015 slot, the movie had a surprise debut at this year's Sundance Film Festival – to a reaction that was, reportedly, wholesale derision. More than a week before the picture's national rollout, prognosticators were debating how many millions the studio was set to lose. So I guess the Wachowskis are finished in the industry, huh? Heck, no! This is Warner Brothers we're talking about. Failure is the only thing they know how to reward. How do you think Zack Snyder pays his mortgage? (PG-13)
Seventh Son: The release of Seventh Son may mark the moment at which America finally admits en masse that Jeff Bridges has become a really awful actor. Oh, I know you have his picture on a T-shirt – along with a slogan claiming that he "abides" for some reason. But be honest: When was the last time you found him remotely believable as any character whatsoever – even "Jeff Bridges"? In his latest outing, the scion of the Sea Hunt empire plays an ancient knight searching for an apprentice; apparently, he's stepped into that role by affecting a vocal delivery that's equal parts Anglo pretension and talking with your mouth full. Porridge time at Hogwarts? Universal should be so lucky. What we've got here looks a lot less like Harry Potter and a lot more like Highlander. The second one. (PG-13)
The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge out of Water: Back in 1998, what did you think you'd be doing come 2015? If the answer is "Eagerly awaiting the second SpongeBob Squarepants movie," then this is your week to howl, boy. And if you never stopped loving Guns 'n Roses, then you'll be tickled pink that "Welcome to the Jungle" is the soundtrack to the promos for this second foray into (and then away from) Bikini Bottom. I don't have a problem with any of that – I've got no beef with Le Sponge, and I'm always in the mood for some Axl. I'm just worried that 2016 is going to bring a Teletubbies movie. With music by Candlebox. (PG)

Highland Hussy Confesses All at Under the Covers Bookblog | Got Fiction?
Hi wonderful Demon Lover's followers!
Have you ever wondered who was behind the Highland Hussy name? Most of you know I'm an author, but here's a chance to see a super short clip of my "Confession" over at Under The Covers Bookblog And who knows? Maybe you can confess a little something yourself?


Jean Lambert is Green Party Co-ordinator for the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs. She is in constant talks with policy makers, NGOs and workers organisations on the issue of working time and continues to highlight worrying working time trends in the UK.
British people work some of the longest hours in Europe, yet due to stress and fatigue, productivity is one of the lowest. Britain is the only EU country to include an opt-out clause in the Working Time Directive and Jean has become increasingly concerned that the long-hours culture is seriously threatening our physical and mental health.
As Green MEP for London, the region where people work the most excessive hours, Jean launched her report 'I Must Work Harder? Britain and the Working time Directive' in February 2006. The report calls on the UK Government to get rid of the opt-out, regulate the working week and protect the UK's workforce.
Download 'I Must Work Harder? Britain and the Working time Directive' here.
In September 2004 Jean feared that flexible working schemes were being used by UK employers to force employees to give up pension rights and work even longer hours – widening the poverty gap and forcing thousands to suffer long-term ill health. Jean launched her report, 'Flexible working: A Work Life Balance or a balancing act?' and called for the labour market to reflect the principles of sustainable development and social justice.
Download 'Flexible Working: A work life balance or a balancing act?' here.
The European Parliament's Committee for Employment and Social Affairs report. Even Labour's own MEPs voted in support of the report which called on the Commission to take legal action against the UK for 'widespread and systematic misuse of the opt-out.
A European Union Research Report exposed UK abuse of the Working Time Directive and promoted the European Commission to launch a public consultation on the matter.
Donkeys on Blackpool beach have been given new working time rights in recognition that this makes them more productive and more appealing to the paying public. But is the fact that they should have greater employer recognition than the UK workforce a laughing matter?
An End to the Opt-Out?
Concerns over the UK Governments misuse of the Working Time Directive grew and in 2004 the Commission took them to court.
In 2005 the Commission put forward a proposal to update the Working Time Directive and astonishingly, in a divergence from many EU recommendations, the opt-out remained along with two other contentious issues – the definition of "on-call" time and the calculation of the reference period.
On call time could be reclassified so that it no longer be classed as working time. The Greens wanted to see the definition of on call time tightened so that workers are fairly compensated for time that is not their own.
Rest time periods are not clearly defined. The Greens wanted to ensure that rest time was taken close to periods of intensive working so that employees health and safety was not compromised.
The UK Government frequently quotes a survey that says 7 out of 10 workers would not work less hours if it meant earning less. Instead of recognising the need for healthier work and fair pay this has been spun by the DTI who say that people don't want to work less hours.
In reality many people feel that their long hours are a detriment to their health or their family life however they simply can not afford to work less. Jean Lambert has consistently campaigned for a living wage not a minimum wage.

House in the Alps
The house is situated on a steep slope of the Flumserberg alpine community on 1250 m above sea level. The town area of Flums stretches from the lowlands, at 456 m, to the vertiginous height of 2 222 m on the Leistenkamm ridge. Hardly any building lots are left in this touristically highly developed landscape of the northernmost range of the Alps. The lot the house is situated on had been removed from the building zone in the 1970s, because a neighboring building took up its utilization factor. After a zoning revision, it was once again approved for building, if only on a small surface area of about ninety square meters.
The house is positioned on a tapered lot in a bend of a small serpentine road. The compact volume with its nearly square layout of 8.01 × 8.56 m leaves the apex of the lot open and rests — being an all-wood structure — on a recessed concrete plinth. A cantilevered element forms an open carport as well as a sheltered space for chopping wood or other work. Two residential stories practically hover over the slope and possess a multifaceted spatial interior despite the dwelling's modest dimensions. In between four bedrooms, the entrance space flows into the open living-cum-dining space under a gently angled gable roof.
The two panorama windows in the main room, which extend around the corners, look out on the peaks of the Churfirsten range to the north and the seven peaks of the Alvier range to the northeast. The framed views of cloud and rock formations between névé patches and the edge of the forest in the morning and evening light lend the house a kind of scenic suspense apart from its interior arrangement.
The extensive wooden paneling of the interior intensifies this effect: because of the slow growth of Alpine flora and through a careful choice of material, the white fir wood is practically free of knotholes. The pre-built post-and-beam construction has been fitted with carefully planed white fir panels on all interior surfaces and fixtures, thus contrasting the forested, rugged slopes of the Alps with a precisely composed interior of surprising simplicity inside the wooden cube.

Or it can be the perpetrated by a caregiver within a rest home.
If you suspect your loved one may be suffering abuse or neglect at the hands of their caregiver, a medical professional, or other staff member, talk about the situation with them and decide together what to do about it. They may wish to make a complaint themselves, with your support, or ask you to do so on their behalf. You should first talk to the manager of the facility about your concerns. If this does not produce satisfactory results, you have a few options.

Q: Flutter Hive - how to locate box files This may be obvious, but can someone please tell me how I can locate my Hive Box file after initialising Hive in a Flutter application, using Android Studio?
I have followed the documentation here - https://docs.hivedb.dev/#/README - and my basic implementation works o.k, but I cannot find where the Box file, or any Hive files for that matter, are stored.
I want to be able to locate where my Box (database) is within my Project in Android Studio, so that I can see the contents of the database and confirm it exists in the right place
This is my code where I'm initialising Hive and opening a box
void main() async {
  // Initialise Hive
  await Hive.initFlutter('hiveusersfolder');
  runApp(MyApp());
  var box = await Hive.openBox('hiveusersfolder');
  box.put('name', 'MyName');
  print('Name: ${box.get('MyName')}');
}

The above code is present in my main.dart file
I am using Android Studio on Ubuntu.
*Edit update
I have located the supposed path of where the Box is stored, but when using Android Studio Navigate > Search Everywhere - there is nothing found within this folder/path. After initialising my database and adding a user to the box, I should be able to see a box file and view the users like with any other kind of db no?
This is the path /data/user/0/myappv1.myappv1/app_flutter
I tried Invalidate Cache + Restart, but still nothing
If the problem is with Android Studio search, how can I access the above path on Ubuntu file explorer? Or using the command line?

A: It is clearly stated in the documentation
/// Initializes Hive with the path from [getApplicationDocumentsDirectory].
  ///
  /// You can provide a [subDir] where the boxes should be stored.
  Future<void> initFlutter([String? subDir]) async {

A: Solved this by selecting a Project SDK from File > Project Structure
I then had to make sure I was using an Android Virtual Device with a system image that did not support Google Play store (Pixel 2XL with Android 8 I think, just picked anything without Play).
There is an issue where if you're using an AVD with Google Play loaded you won't be able to access the default folder where Hive puts your .hive files
Your Hive files by default, at least on Android with Flutter, seem to go into this path - /data/user/0/yourapplicationv1.yourapplicationv1/app_flutter
Hopefully this helps anyone experiencing the same issue

A: In the case of iOS, you can check it by following the steps below.

*

*First, check the identifier of the simulator you are using in the application you are developing, which can be found in xcode under Window → Devices and Simulators. The identifier is usually formatted something like B8D6964E-01BD-4D90-96CA-746F87AF3F48.

 2. run $ cd ~/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator
 3. run $ cd YOUR-SIMULATOR-IDENTIFIER
 4. run $ find . -name "*.hive" -ls
This will probably find the .hive file. However, in order to see the contents of this file, you will need to install Hadoop and Hive.
I haven't tried it because it seems a bit time-consuming, but I'll post a link that might be useful.
how-to-install-hive-on-mac-with-homebrew

A: In my case, I am implementing a macos application, the hive folder was:
/Users/me/Library/Containers/com.developerId.applicationId/Data/Documents/

A: Put a breakpoint on the await Hive.initFlutter('hiveusersfolder');, and step into it. Keep stepping in until you get to the getApplicationDocumentsDirectory(), and you will see what path that function returns.

State COVID-19 cases stoke worry
Bobby Caina Calvan
TALLAHASSEE — Florida reported nearly 3,500 more new cases of the coronavirus on Sunday, a dip from the record-breaking numbers of recent days, as public health officials reissued advisories urging social distancing and some businesses to reevaluate their decisions to reopen for business.
Some also had to rethink their Father's Day brunch plans because of health concerns.
The latest numbers was a drop from the record high of 4,000 new cases reported the day before.
To date, Florida has now had more than 97,000 Floridians infected with COVID-19. The number of deaths has now eclipsed 3,160, including the 17 additional deaths announced by health officials on Sunday.
Meanwhile, the rate of new infections continued to remain high, with nearly 12% of recent tests coming back from laboratories as positive.
Much of the state's new infections continued to be concentrated in the state's population centers in South Florida.
On Saturday, Gov. Ron DeSantis ordered the Health Department to reissue advisories urging Floridians to consider wearing masks to help keep the virus from spreading and to refrain from attending gatherings of more than 50 people.
Despite the rise in new infections, the governor has not signaled any possibility of retreat from reopening the state after three months of closures that have damaged the economy, kept hundreds of thousands of people from their jobs and disrupted the day-to-day lives of Floridians.
Some businesses have delayed plans to reopen, while others have reclosed because of jitters over the rising number of new cases or because of employees becoming infected by COVID-19.
Earlier this week, Apple announced it would reclose stores in some states that showed a resurgence of the virus, including Florida.
During a Saturday news conference, DeSantis attempted to quell concerns about the spikes in new cases. Despite the high number of new infections, the governor noted that the number of hospitalizations hasn't been increasing at the same rate.
He said the wider availability of testing has contributed to the numbers. Much of the new infections involved younger people, many of them not exhibiting symptoms of the disease.
He urged them to take precautions, but he has resisted calls for making masks mandatory in places like supermarkets and other public places.

Bank of Mexico to launch digital currency by 2024
The Bank of Mexico plans to establish its own digital currency in circulation by 2024 to adopt the latest payments technology and incite financial formation in an economy that relies mostly on cash transactions.
Mexico's central bank under the administration of President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador tweeted on Dec. 30 that it is important "to use these new technologies and latest-generation payments infrastructure as valuable options to advance financial inclusion in the country."
In a recent report, the Bank of Mexico said that it is examining the development of a digital currency in various phases. It will employ as a foundation for the platform the present electronic payments system to broaden payment options under a rapid, safe and efficient plan.
Central bank advisors have been in discussions with financial institutions about the application and the foundation needed to start a digital currency that could be employed for basic transactions, a person aware with the Bank of Mexico's plans said. A vast number of transactions are done with cash given the wide informal economy, which in 2020 made up almost 22 percent of Mexico's gross domestic product.
Mexico's central bank, which is known for its traditional monetary policies, has advised against the risks of privately issued cryptocurrency assets like bitcoin due to its volatility in value and limited acceptance. Bank officials, however, have been receptive to central-bank digital currencies as a way to advance financial inclusion.
Bank of Mexico Gov. Alejandro Diaz de Leon said at an International Monetary Fund (IMF) event last July that central banks need to move fast to create new forms of money and fully operable digital currencies amidst the increasing use of crypto assets and the risks they bring.
Mexican billionaire Ricardo Salinas Pliego said last June that he was making his Banco Azteca the first bank in Mexico to accept bitcoin.
The Bank of Mexico, the Secretariat of Finance and Public Credit and banking and securities regulators said in response that cryptocurrencies like bitcoin are not legal tender in Mexico and that financial institutions are not approved to offer operations with such assets. (Related: China's Central Bank bans all cryptocurrency transactions.)
"Although they can be exchanged, they do not fulfill the function of money, as their acceptance as a form of payment is limited and they aren't a good reserve or value reference," the group said in a statement.
Unlike bitcoin and other forms of cryptocurrencies, central bank digital currencies are a virtual or electronic form of fiat currency. The Bahamas began in October 2020 the world's first central bank digital currency – the sand dollar.
The Switzerland-based Bank for International Settlements (BIS), which is led by former Bank of Mexico Gov. Agustin Carstens, stated in a 2021 survey that 86 percent of central banks are studying the potential of central bank digital currencies, 60 percent were testing related technology and 14 percent were working pilot projects.
The BIS said that the objective of the research is to find out whether such currencies protect public trust in money, preserve price stability and establish safe payment systems.
Aside from Mexico, the United Kingdom is also considering a new central bank digital currency. The Bank of England (BoE) had previously released a paper on the opportunities, challenges and design of central back digital currencies and the Financial Times has reported the U.K.'s plan to have its own central bank digital currency.
"[The] aim would be to future-proof sterling against cryptocurrencies and improve the payments system," the Financial Times reported. The digital version of sterling, however, will not replace physical cash or existing bank accounts according to the BoE.
El Salvador adopts bitcoin as legal tender
El Salvador became the first country to adopt bitcoin, leaving behind central banks that are still probing the potential for digital currencies. El Salvador has been an avid supporter of the cryptocurrency, with its president Nayib Bukele saying that its existence spells the downfall of fiat currencies.
Bitcoin has been on a roller coaster ride in 2021 and it has reached an all-time high late in the past year. It was helped by the launch of a bitcoin futures exchange traded fund in the capital markets aside from El Salvador's adoption.
Whether cryptocurrency replaces fiat currency remains to be seen, but Bukele believes that idea is possible.
"What has been called by international organizations as 'The #Bitcoin Experiment,' is nothing more than the world watching how mass adoption changes a country's economy. If it's for the good, it's game over for FIAT. El Salvador is the spark that ignites the real revolution," Bukele tweeted on Dec. 23, 2021.
El Salvador has other projects in mind that are bolstering its move to the crypto space. One is its project to create a bitcoin-funded city, which features the cryptocurrency's ability to push economic growth in El Salvador.

Q: Structure for storing string values in two-dimensional list in Python I need to create a matrix-like structure which can be accessed by its names of the columns and rows.
'''
           Misalign    CPU     Ret
LU_factor   0           6       21
Random      2           10      5
'''

row=["LU_factor","Random"]
col=['Misalign', 'CPU', 'Ret']
Total=[['0', '6', '21'],['2', '10', '5']]

for i in range(0,len(Total)):
    for j in range(0,len(Total[i])):
        print(Total[i][j],end=" ")
        # Matrix[row[i]][col[j]] =Total[i][j]

#print(Matrix)

I do not know what format or data structure I should use to store above data such that I could able to access like:
Matrix["LU_factor"]["CPU"] =6
Matrix["Random"]["Ret"] = 5

I have found one solution through numpy structured array, but I am looking for the solution without using numpy. Thanks in advance.

A: You can use dictionaries of dictionaries, something like:
M = {"LU_factor": {'Misalign': 0, 'CPU': 6, 'Ret': 21}, 'Random': {'Misalign': 2, 'CPU': 10, 'Ret': 5}}

should works, you can access or assign values respectively with M["LU_factor"]["CPU"] and M["LU_factor"]["CPU"] = 5.
Specifically you can build the structure you need with a dict comprehension, using your example:
row=["LU_factor","Random"]
col=['Misalign', 'CPU', 'Ret']
Total=[['0', '6', '21'],['2', '10', '5']]

M = {r:{c:Total[k][i] for i, c in enumerate(col)} for k, r in enumerate(row)}

Our criminal defense lawyers will take every measure to challenge the prosecution's case against you in order to have the charges reduced or dismissed.
If police stopped you at a checkpoint and tested your blood alcohol concentration at 0.08%, you could be charged with a misdemeanor DUI, per Florida Statute 316.193(3).
If you caused property damage or slightly injured someone, you may still be charged with a first degree misdemeanor offense.

"I Can't Stand Myself (When You Touch Me)", also known as "I Can't Stand It", is a song written and recorded by James Brown in 1967. It is the most successful of the handful of recordings he made with The Dapps, a band of white musicians led by Beau Dollar. The single release of the song, on which its transposure was pushed up a half step/key, rose to #4 on the Billboard R&B chart and #28 on the Pop chart. The single's B-side, "There Was a Time", also charted.

"I Can't Stand Myself (When You Touch Me)" was included on the 1968 album I Can't Stand Myself When You Touch Me, where it was labeled "Pt. 1". A "Pt. 2", which appeared later in the album, never received a single release.

Chris Paul and the Oklahoma City Thunder are reportedly working to get a trade done as soon as possible, and it's the Miami Heat that are believed to be the frontrunner to land the veteran point guard.
Following Thursday night's blockbuster trade that sent CP3 (and multiple picks) to OKC in exchange for Russell Westbrook, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski mentioned that the Heat were interested in making a move for Paul. During Friday's episode of "Get Up," Woj reiterated that Miami is the main focus, adding that OKC doesn't intend to have Chris Paul wear the Thunder uniform this season.
Says Woj:
"The market for Chris Paul is going to be small, but Miami is at the top of that list. They'd like to try and get that deal done as soon as they can. I was told there's some other teams, too, that are going to be discussed but their hope in getting this deal done with Chris Paul is that he doesn't play a game in a Thunder uniform."
"I think Miami is the focus right now, and they'll try to find a way to get a deal done with the Heat."
Paul, 34, averaged 15.6 points, 8.2 assists and 4.6 rebounds per game last season. The nine-time All Star, who began his career in Oklahoma City, has three years, $124 million left on his contract.
As part of the Westbrook-CP3 deal, OKC also acquired two first-round picks in 2024 and 2026 (both protected Nos. 1-4) and two pick swaps in 2021 and 2025, according to ESPN.

How the Supreme Court Could Severely Hinder or Help Religious Liberty in its New Term
WASHINGTON - Religious liberty could be a big topic in this upcoming US Supreme Court term. At least, that's what the legal experts at Becket, a leading defender of religious liberties, are expecting.
In a media call, Becket President Mark Rienzi first commented that last term's ruling that a World War I memorial cross located in Bladensburg, Maryland, did not have to be torn down or moved hinted at good news for future religious liberty cases.
"The justices emphasized that the point of the religion clauses is to foster a society in which people of all beliefs can live together harmoniously," Rienzi said. "And the justices explained that using the Constitution to force people to tear down a memorial cross would strike people as aggressively hostile to religion and wouldn't do the work that the First Amendment is supposed to do of finding a way for people of all range of different beliefs to live together harmoniously."
Big Term for Religious Liberty
Rienzi expects it will be a big term if the high court decides to tackle and make broad rulings on a number of cases involving religious freedom.
"I actually can't recall a time in the last 20 years that there were this many key issues that seemed ready for decision and primed for decision and a court that seems open to them," he noted.
One case is actually three combined into one and will determine if "sexual orientation" and "gender identity" are included in the legal definition of "sex." It's a huge matter because the federal government's Title VII prohibits employment discrimination based on sex.
If the court rules that the definition of sex does have to be broadened to include sexual orientation and gender identity, some organizations could be hit hard due to the owners' religious beliefs. For instance, those that don't hire homosexuals or transgenders.
Religious Organizations Could Face a Flood of Lawsuits
"From roughly 1979 to 2017, a period of 38 years, all 11 courts of appeals that addressed this question held that Title VII doesn't prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity," Becket Vice President Luke Goodrich explained.
But then two circuit courts of appeal reversed that long-time understanding. And now it's up to the Supreme Court to decide.
Goodrich talked about how this could affect religious liberty.
"Many religious organizations have long-standing beliefs about human sexuality, and they often expect their employees to live in accordance with those beliefs," he said.
'Going to Create Massive Church/State Conflict'
"But if the Supreme Court expands the scope of Title VII and agrees that discriminating based on sexual orientation or gender identity is an illegal form of sex discrimination, all of a sudden all of these religious organizations will be exposed to new lawsuits and potentially massive liability," Goodrich continued.
He added, "This applies to churches, to religious schools, religious social service providers – basically any religious organization that expects its employees to follow their religious standards of conduct could face new liability."
"An expansion of the scope of Title VII is going to create massive church/state conflict," Goodrich concluded.
When Gov't Discriminates to Fight What it Sees as Discrimination
Becket Senior Counsel Lori Windham hopes the court will weigh into one case where Philadelphia is refusing to work with a Catholic foster care agency because that agency, Catholic Social Services, admits it wouldn't, if asked, place foster children with same-sex couples.
Windham suggested that's a deadly blow to Catholic Social Services.
"Being able to partner with the city is the only way that agencies in Philadelphia are able to provide foster care to children who are in Philadelphia's child welfare system," she explained.
If the court should take up Fulton v Philadelphia and side with the Catholics, it could maybe put a halt to a trend across the country of cities or states refusing to work with foster care or adoption agencies that won't put children with same-sex couples.
Windham is also hoping the court might finally take up Arlene's Flowers v Ingersoll, a case involving Christian florist Baronnelle Stutzman, who wouldn't do the floral arrangements for a same-sex wedding because of her religious beliefs.
"For that, she was sued and penalized heavily by the state of Washington," Windham commented. In fact, if the court doesn't take up the case and rule for Stutzman, she's very likely to lose her business, her home, and her other assets.
A Blow Against Anti-Religious Bigotry?
Goodrich also talked about the upcoming Espinoza v. Montana Department of Revenue. It gives the court a chance to strike a death blow to so-called Blaine amendments. These are measures passed across the United States starting back in the mid-to-late 1800s when the Catholic faith and schools teaching it mushroomed.
In those days, America's public school system was heavily influenced by Protestant faiths and Catholicism was often met with fierce hostility.
"There were riots. Catholic buildings were burned down. Catholic children were expelled from the public schools," Goodrich explained.
James Blaine, a Republican congressman from Maine, proposed a federal Constitutional amendment to keep any public funds from going to sectarian schools. But it failed, so many states passed their own "Blaine amendments," and dozens of states still have them.
A number of single low-income mothers in Montana have sued over Montana's ruling that because of its Blaine amendment, no tax breaks can go to people who help fund scholarships for children attending sectarian schools.
Ruling Could Go Way Beyond Schools & Scholarships
Goodrich said of the Espinoza case, "What is the court going to do with Montana's Blaine amendment? What is it possibly going to do with Blaine amendments in 37 other states?"
What the court decides about the Blaine amendments could have far-reaching consequences.
"This is not just about scholarships and vouchers for private schools," Goodrich added. "Blaine amendments have affected a wide variety of government programs, such as historic preservation grants where local governments give out funds to repair historic buildings, which may include churches."
"It also affects social services," he continued. "We had a case a few years ago involving a prisoner reentry program. The government funded a wide variety of programs that would help prisoners reenter society. And under a state Blaine amendment, a state court at one point struck down a religious program that was helping prisoners reenter society."
"Basically this case could have a huge impact on the relationship between church and state, particularly when it comes to funding and the extent to which government funds can flow to both religious and non-religious entities," Goodrich noted.


1. Soil organic matter: The organic supplies used by the farmers most commonly are firewood and fodder. These are highly required by the livestock and other work for the farmers in agricultural activities. Bringing the change with more organic soil matter installed, it is used in the farming process can show all good impacts on the harvests. The quality of soil matter must be chosen to be organic & by ethical means.
2. Soil structure: With the great structure in the soil, you make sure that the seeds and the saplings get enough nutrients in the right ways. The soil structure ensures that there be a great connection between the water and nutrient particles, and they do not get lost within.
3. Soil erosion: Make all the arrangements to completely abolish the erosion of soil. The soil surface must be protected with top-notch methods that can save the soil from getting eroded. There is a necessary requirement as a farmer that you be surely taking care of the soil and ensure that erosion doesn't occur, as most of the key nutrients for the plants are present on the topmost layer.
4. Water filtration: Filtration of the water and methods to make sure that the water quality is not affected makes the yield very well. Water filtration has a lot of advantages, one of them being that the plants get really good care. With such water filtration techniques implemented, there can be seen a visible enhancement in the income for the farmers, leading them to better opportunities to improve their livelihood and taking better care of their families.
5. Efficient Use of water: Farmers are implementing a lot of good methods to make sure that the water used is not much and stays much afar. The efficient use of water is necessary on a global aspect as well. As a water management technique, keep in mind the count of water used is a great way towards sustainability.
6. Soil Nutrients: Implement methods that can make sure, that there is more to absorbing nutrients that just splashing the crops with one. The high yields resulting with soil nutrients are obvious and leads to better rates of conversion for the farmers' hard works. The crops and plants will show better resistance to any changes that can be seen pertaining to the climate change. The evolving plants will have great strength and resilience towards global warming impacts.
There are huge benefits of these newly improved and effective water and land management practices which are directly useful to reinstate the falling economies in the rural areas. Try them all and make notable changes to the yields.

Powering up the house

Brisbane Powerhouse Centre for the Live Arts
photo Jon Linkins
Zane Trow, Artistic Director of Brisbane's Powerhouse, is positively electric. A steady current of unabashed enthusiasm about his first year at the new arts centre and the promise of the 12 month program he's announced for 2001 flows down the phone line.
It's a significant move for a contemporary arts centre to announce an annual calendar of events, tied as such venues are to artists and companies waiting on the outcomes of government arts funding cycles. Doubtless this plays a role in Trow's scheduling too, but Powerhouse funding levels, box office income and co-production deals, along with an accessible, attractive venue with several performing spaces and a good bar, allow him a choice of artists and appropriate hirers that will add up to a distinctive program. As Trow says, "co-production is crucial. That's the future. We operate this organisation far more like a festival than an arts venue. It's a mixture of commissioning, sponsoring, co-production, investment." In a short period the Powerhouse has proven itself attractive to audiences and artists and is a highly desirable venue for touring interstate artists. The 2001 calendar includes, from Melbourne, Crying in Public Places, Handspan Theatre, David Chesworth Ensemble and desoxy Theatre; from Sydney, Rosalind Crisp and stella b., The opera Project, Andrew Morrish and Taikoz; and from Brisbane, Vulcana Women's Circus, Frank Productions, Elision new music ensemble and 2 appearances each by Topology and Rock'n'Roll Circus. There's more in visual arts, new media, dance and community events—as you'll see on the Powerhouse's website: www.brisbane powerhouse.org. Almost a year after the centre's opening, Trow's enthusiasm is undimmed, he's already achieving many of the goals he set himself, his staff and the building.
The 12 month plan
Creating a 12 month program is a struggle but it worked for us in our first year. We did a certain amount on the run and we were nervous about it—various marketing gurus said we should have a quarterly program but the 12 month one worked for us. People held on to it. More and more the website keeps people in touch with the program as it goes along. That seems to be working.
There's no subscription scheme, but we've got some packages this year where you can buy a taste for the year of a range of projects, for example if you're interested in contemporary music. I really think that relying on a subscriber base is a bit of a chain around your neck. Most national initiatives start from a premise of trying to convince subscribers to like contemporary performance. You know, how are we going to convince our subscribers to give something risky a try; rather than saying, here's all this risky stuff that does have an audience, how are we going to expand that. It's a different way of thinking. Last year in audience terms was extremely successful for us. More successful than anyone had predicted. That gives us a basis to build on the idea of diversity.
Audiences find a home
Part of what we're doing is recognising that Brisbane does have an inner-city culture. It has an audience that's probably between 18 and 45, that is interested in risk and probably has a range of entertainment options that is about risk but has not had that live performance option in Brisbane before, and in one place. That has served us very well. Our core audience is younger, comes to the Powerhouse more than once and has an interest in a whole range of aspects of contemporary performance culture. That's been important with the Spark Bar up and running really well this year. In March we're opening the Watt Cafe by the river so we'll be able to offer regular visitors food and drink as part of their ticket package. We're developing incentives, loyalty programs if you like, but we're not locking it all down and trying to pre-sell a program 12 months out and then worrying that we haven't got enough subscribers.
We do an initial push at the beginning of the year and then we sell show by show. We use the mailing list effectively, I think. People tell us what they like and don't. We love the internet because we can talk to people directly. The website is very well used and we're constantly developing new ways to use it. This year you'll be able to go to the website and every couple of weeks get a regular update.
It's crucial that people begin to come here for a whole variety of reasons and just hang out. The idea of the cafe and the atmosphere in the building is really informed by a small and medium scale European and UK art centre aesthetic—the bar and relaxed food atmosphere as much as the theatre or the bookshop. It's those kind of models we're drawing on to do the business plans for the Powerhouse. So far it's working.
Given all the conversations that have gone on over the last 12 months about the Saatchi & Saatchi Report, it seems obvious that if you want to get people to enjoy art that is challenging and risky then it's probably better to give people a relaxing and enjoyable environment and to break down the formality of the high art idea that you have to get dressed up to go. My experience tells me that when you're able to do that, when you do create a happy and relaxed environment, the art is actually served well and audiences appreciate that and might, in fact, take a risk on something that they wouldn't ordinarily.
A place for artists
That's something that we really try to foster—a place where artists can come, over and above simply presenting work. In a professional sense, in terms of development, I've actually managed to achieve a level of residency program here that I've tried hard to do in the last few years in Australia and have never been able to pull off. We have artists in residence throughout the year, focussing on performance but not exclusively. We have people working in new media and installation and visual arts. That begins to foster the idea of a contemporary hub of ideas. The kind of atmosphere we've tried to set up in here is very different to the standard arts centre interval bar that nobody in their right mind would want to sit in talking till 3 in the morning. You'd go somewhere else. Whereas here we're trying to foster an environment, for artists and audience, where you could come for the whole night, see a show or not and you can sit around and engage with an aspect of contemporary culture—which is the building itself.
Getting the work on
I've got development projects up to the end of 2003 and there's a real demand to work here. We're also being recognised as a place where you can bring an initial project idea that may be left of centre and get a critical, supportive response. That's brought a range of projects which are attracting a level of support they might not have enjoyed in Brisbane. That's part of the rationale of a place like this, to be able to respond to interesting ideas.
With the kind of independent and smaller company networks we work in, I think co-production is crucial. That's the future. We operate this organisation far more like a festival than an arts venue. It's a mixture of commissioning, sponsoring, co-production, investment. There's a mixture of models about how a piece of art gets made. We try and retain a flexibility in the way we work and in our budget to be able to respond in different ways.
There are certain organisations nationally that we're beginning to work regularly in partnership with so that you've got a mixed level of investment into a project that perhaps 5 years ago could have got away with maybe one funding source. We're working with other arts funding agencies internationally to support overseas artists coming here. We're looking at cross-producing work with some Queensland companies that are annually or triennially funded. They still need $10,000 or $15,000 extra to get what is in fact their annual program up. It's so important for an arts centre like us to maintain the program funding we have and to be able to have the flexibility to choose where to invest it. I think that idea of a mixture of investment, sponsorship and co-production and commissioning is a model that could be used far more in Australia in an arts centre sense—The Powerhouse is a bit of a new model.

Of course it's relevant
The issue is about a balance of investment between heritage culture and new work. In a forum we hosted with the Australian Key Centre for Cultural and Media Policy in their response to the Australia Council's Promoting the Value of the Arts campaign (www.gu.edu. au/centre/cmp/rtfs/ PVAworkshop.rtf) we reached a couple of conclusions. The first was that clearly there is a contemporary practice in Australia that actually does address, and has done so historically, a lot of the concerns expressed in that report. None of those organisations or initiatives, it seemed to us, were heritage culture. If you talk about 70% of Australians wanting the arts to be relevant to the way we live now, if you take that quote out of the Saatchi & Saatchi Report, well it's pretty interesting, isn't it?
If art is to be relevant to the way we live now, I doubt very much whether the Opera and the Ballet and the proscenium arch can deliver that in a consistent way—occasionally perhaps. Whereas it's the contemporary practitioners of the nation who are involved in how we live now. Those things seem to us blatantly obvious. The question is how to convince the policy makers that it really is that simple.
It's hard but I think we're very lucky here at the Powerhouse because Brisbane happens to have at this time, regardless of diminishing project grants nationally and locally, a great energy.
Lifting the cloak of invisibility
In the 7 months we've been operating we've made just under a million bucks earned income, mostly in ticket sales with some stuff like hire and events. That gives us a good argument to go back to the Brisbane City Council and say that the "mad idea" they had to form this independent business is actually viable. It also proves that if you present this art, people will come and see it. For some of the more conservative strains of the arts industry in Brisbane this has come as a bit of a shock. The majority of the work we develop is hand in hand with local artists and organisations who have been "invisible" in Queensland for a long time—in terms of coverage in the media or in any genuine sense of local pride in what these artists might do. And we've certainly removed that cloak of invisibility and demonstrated that the work has an economic value.
We have an annual subsidy of $1.5 million and we do everything with that. It covers the overheads and we basically have to double it to stay alive. That puts us into the Major Organisations kind of bracket, but we're a bit of an aberration because it's rare that $1.5 million a year is spent on this kind of independent contemporary work. Just that small investment isn't very much when you compare the arts subsidy in Australia with what one can spend on farming. It's a pittance. But if there is energy and commitment and vision and there are artists who want to do good work in this contemporary culture, small amounts of money in our networks go an awfully long way. I think what we present is an argument that says yes, that's true but if you take this culture seriously, if you were to invest in contemporary culture to the level that you would normally invest in straight theatre you will also see a significant return and you will see work that is recognised nationally and internationally. That's part of our role, to say it is possible for Australian contemporary culture to get an audience and to make money. What it needs to achieve that is respect, trust and flexibility.
Beating bad press
The Courier Mail implied that the Powerhouse was turning into an elite centre for the gay and lesbian Mafia of Brisbane. There was a certain amount of local politics involved in all that but also the issue of invisibility. Once we pulled off the cloak what was presented to the more conservative end of town was a culture they hadn't really looked at before. And it was clearly seen to be something that people wanted. For example, our Queer Film and Video Weekend was a 98% sell-out last year. If you are involved in arts and culture and your main involvement has been in a major organisation, whether you're audience or arts worker, you haven't really noticed all this contemporary culture before. You've got no reason to. In our collaboration with Brisbane Pride Festival, for instance, we're not doing anything that hasn't been done in Brisbane before, it's just that we're doing it with a new level of visibility. If you look at a program for any contemporary arts organisation, it's full of bodies, photographs of bodies. Therefore the whole thing (according to the Courier) must be about sex and, not only that, deviant sex! One of the conservative critics thought it was appalling that we got so many young people in the space. Now there are some arts organisations who have spent 20 years desperately trying to get young people in. This critic was actually offended that the bar was full of nose rings and tattoos and she couldn't believe it, so she thought, right, they must all be deviants. I don't think she'd actually been in a bar full of young Australian people recently.
The article did come as a surprise. The program had been in the public domain for months before the article happened. But it has not affected attendances, ticket sales, project development at all. It's basically an aberration and most of the people who have visited and the arts organisations in Queensland we've worked with thought the article was so bloody stupid that it was almost embarrassing. It certainly caused debate on our board which I think was a very healthy thing. The board is incredibly supportive of the directions we're taking in programming and supported the idea that the venue should be gay and lesbian friendly. So it did raise some issues. Over Christmas there was another article in the Courier Mail. The headline read "On track despite the critics." During that period there was the 25 year anniversary of the IMA and its director Michael Snelling in his speech said that the history of contemporary culture in Brisbane could be seen as a 25 year struggle with the Courier Mail.
We got an awful lot of calls of support. It's interesting because if we follow through the strategies of audience development for contemporary culture that our betters and masters are currently so keen to have us do, my theatre foyer full of 18-25 year olds having a great time with art that hasn't specifically been sold to them as Youth Arts—they've come because it's an interesting product and they want to see it. On the other hand it's a great threat to the status quo. I think there are some people in the arts here in Brisbane who think, it can't possibly go on, we'll have to pull that risky strategy back.'
New media vs hybrid arts
We've taken Cyber Cultures from the Casula Powerhouse in Sydney's west and we're supporting a number of residences. We have new media artist Keith Armstrong and performer Lisa O'Neill and in the visual arts there are some new media works as well. I've left it to the artists themselves to try and score the money from the New Media Arts Fund of the Australia Council. I think there is great potential here in Australia to develop a performance technology research and development arm of the culture. There's a range of companies you can think of who have been working in that way for years. There has been a feeling that the New Media Arts Fund is in danger, in the long term, of becoming a digital arts fund rather than a multimedia and hybrid arts body. Perhaps it's that, overall, the Australia Council is struggling with a Federal Government that wants to push it in particular directions. There's been a lot of investment in rock 'n' roll recently and some good investments in international marketing and whatever but we still haven't had a decent increase in basic grant funding for 20 years. One of the great jokes of the Saatchi & Saatchi Report is that the majority of work that could probably address its concerns about audience development is lucky to get $15,000 a year. Meanwhile, $15,000 wouldn't even wipe the nose of the Australian Opera's education program. What's going on here?
There are a number of local artists and artistic directors who have a look at our venue and just laugh—'never in our wildest dreams would we ever perform there.' Others, like Michael Gow, Artistic Director of the Queensland Theatre Company, see the theatre as a great opportunity. Hopefully our relationship with the QTC will be ongoing. The interesting thing about Richard II, in the 2001 program, is that it's one of the few standard scripts throughout the year. I suppose if you're going to have a scripted play you might as well have Shakespeare!
In the 2001 program there's a strong emphasis on physical theatre and an expanded contemporary music focus which is important because the new music scene here in Brisbane is very strong. I hope our relationship with Elision and Topology and other groups will develop over a number of years. I really wanted to develop the music program to a point where it looked coherent and reflected the diversity of talent here. To the local groups we're adding the David Chesworth Ensemble from Melbourne and Taikoz from Sydney.
Having established the strong physical theatre focus last year, we'll continue that too. There's Vulcana Women's Circus, two shows from Rock 'n' Roll Circus, Frank Productions, plus desoxy from Melbourne. We might see some long term development out of interstate visits—Taikoz and Frank Productions have been talking for years about trying to do something together. With the Powerhouse as a kind of broker those things can happen.

"Having hands on experience with PRP was particularly helpful, and a great opportunity for the mentors like Dr. Jogi to relay technique pearls that I continue to use. I have had consistently positive results so far with the PRP cases I have done, and I feel like learning this the right way is a big part of how I was able to institute our program so quickly and effectively. It is important to note that Dr. Jogi has made herself available to answer questions I have had since the training. Many thanks to Dr. Jogi for sharing her experience in a way that translated to a successful PRP program at my own practice!

Testimonies From Somali Christians
February 10, 2011 by Open Doors in General
Somewhere inside Mogadishu, the capital of Somalia, secret believers arrive one by one at the agreed meeting place. Once everybody settles in, the prayer leader opens a folded piece of paper and begins to share a message. Although some of the members own Bibles not one is in sight – if caught with a Bible they face certain death.
The opportunity is rare and much appreciated, but these believers cannot dare to meet for longer than three hours. Careful not to leave any tracks, members abandon the meeting place separately at intervals. As a precaution all evidence of conversations are destroyed. Telephone numbers are exchanged, but for safety purposes these numbers are memorized ensuring that fellow Christians cannot be traced, should one be captured.
In spite of these obstacles the church in Somali continues to thrive. Radio stations offer programs that help converts grow in their faith. "It encourages us to stay grounded in our faith," testifies an avid listener. "The reception is good, but we have to listen in secret." At a recent training session for underground prayer leaders in Somalia believers shared their testimonies.
Nishan*, 27 had just graduated from college and began interning at a hospital when he first heard the gospel in 1999. By 2002 he made known to his family that he had become a follower of Jesus Christ. Furious with his announcement, his family kept him in a dark room on their roof for 13 days without any food. Nishan's sister, despite her fear of getting caught by her brothers, secretly brought him meals. Only after his mother pleaded with his father was he released. Today Nishan is one of sixteen secret believers in his neighborhood who meet at the mosque for prayer and call themselves followers of Isa al Misah. By meeting at the mosque their respect in the community is maintained, and at the same time they have the opportunity to build relationships with other secret believers.
Ramima*'s desire to learn more about Christ was so intense that she found herself befriending nuns at the hospital where she worked. "The fact that I was seen talking to a nun caused a lot of suspicion and tension in the hospital." Colleagues' suspicion eventually forced them to meet only at night but the hospital director mistrusted the friendship and ordered Ramima to be transferred to another hospital. Holding on to the conviction that her faith was a gift from God, Ramima was able to track down an underground fellowship and connect with the family of secret believers.
Abdi Mohammed*, a graduate from a local Quranic School, felt convicted that something central was wrong. In his pursuit for the truth he decided to visit his uncle, a teacher at a Catholic school. "He would endlessly explain to me about Jesus and the Christian faith," Abdi recalls. Three months later Abdi moved in with his uncle and before long he gave his life to the Lord. In 1995, one and a half years after his conversion, his uncle passed away. When the family discovered Christian books in his home they knew that Abdi's uncle had been a Christian for a very long time. That night all the books were burned. "I then embarked on a long journey to find other Christians," Abdi said. At first, finding secret believers was hard, but God eventually sent a man to him. This man would preach loudly on the streets about Christian principles. He was considered mentally sick so the authorities left him alone. One day, Abdi followed him home. Just before the man disappeared into a small building, Abdi said, "I am of your family". At first the man did not respond, but after several attempts to start a conversation, Abdi succeeded. He told Abdi that he was not mentally handicapped, but that he used the disability condition as a cover to get in touch with other Christians. Together they built a network of fellowships with secret believers.
Father we thank You for these brothers and sisters and their enthusiasm to learn more about Jesus. Train and equip them so that they can share the gospel message with those in Somalia who are hungry for the truth. Protect them so that they are not discovered by those who wish to harm them. Provide for their every need including food, shelter and fellowship with other Christians. We also pray that the radio ministries will continue to be an effective tool to spread Your message and be a blessing Your flock. Father we are grateful for the small but faithful church in Somalia. And although the country is war-torn, may Your light continue to shine brighter and brighter in the days ahead ultimately making a way for Somali Christians to freely and openly worship You. Amen

Revolution Middle East – Pandora's Box for Christian Minorities
When President Ben Ali fled Tunisia after a popular revolt of just a few days the news spread quickly throughout the Middle East, that unpopular governments can be overthrown, and many of those in power, wondered what would happen next. The Middle East is home to a Christian minority of over 14 million people, most of them living under severe restrictions, if not under outright persecution. What would a political reversal mean for them? This week we explore this question in the country of Tunisia.

2018 Grammys Rundown: see who's a big winner and who got snubbed
Kendrick Lamar and Bruno Mars win big at the 60th Annual Grammy Awards In NYC on Sunday night.
Bruno Mars winning at the 60th Annual GRAMMY Awards at Madison Square Garden
This year's Grammy Awards was full of highs and lows and a couple artists racked up while others were arguably snubbed.
Almost as important as who won is who didn't win. Namely, Jay-Z. The mogul was nominated for eight awards for 4:44 but went home empty handed. Childish Gambino went in to the night with five nominations for Awaken, My Love! and his song, "Redbone", but brought home only one win tonight for Best Traditional R&B Performance.
The other major snub was much more broad. There was very little Grammy love for the ladies, with few women making it into the winner's circle, despite it being the "Year of The Woman" in so many other arenas.
Alessia Cara brought home the Grammy for Best New Artist and while we're fans of the singer, we were rooting for SZA. Her innovative approach to R&B and raw, relevant lyrics should have earned her a win.
Meanwhile, Kendrick Lamar and Bruno Mars nabbed several trophies each.
Kendrick accepted the first televised award of the night with Rihanna by his side when their hit, "Loyalty," won the Grammy for Best R&B/Rap Song Performance.
"She came through and gassed me on that record," he said. "This really belongs to her."

When he returned to the stage to collect his Grammy for Best Rap Album for Damn, even Kendrick seemed a bit stunned that he beat out Hov.
"This trophy is dedicated to hip hop…Real talk. That's love," before he declared, "Jay-Z for President."
"HUMBLE" won Best Music Video, Best Rap Song, and Best Rap Performance.
Bruno Mars collected six statues on Sunday night with "That's What I Like" winning him Song of The Year, Best R&B Song, and Best R&B Performance and 24K Magic scoring him Best R&B Album, Album of The Year and Record of The Year.

Headlines from Korea: "unbearable punitive action", "strong measures different from the past"
Apr 25, 2017 by Rei	in International
A smattering of today's headlines from Yonhap, South Korea's largest news agency.
S. Korea, U.S., Japan to take unbearable punitive action if N. Korea provokes
SEOUL/TOKYO, April 25 (Yonhap) — Senior officials of South Korea, the United States and Japan agreed at a meeting in Tokyo on Tuesday to take unbearably strong punitive action against North Korea if the communist country launches a fresh military provocation, the South Korean participant said.
The three countries' chief negotiators on the North Korean nuclear issue held a meeting earlier in the day to coordinate their responses to advancing nuclear and missile threats by North Korea. Kim Hong-kyun, special representative for Korean Peninsula peace and security affairs at the foreign ministry, represented the South Korean side, vis-a-vis his U.S. and Japanese counterparts, Joseph Yun and Kenji Kanasugi.
S. Korea warns of 'strong measures different from past' in case of N.K. provocation
SEOUL, April 25 (Yonhap) — South Korea's Acting President and Prime Minister Hwang Kyo-ahn warned North Korea Tuesday that it would face "strong measures" different from the past should it press ahead with another provocation.
Hwang made the remarks amid growing concerns that the communist state could conduct a nuclear test or an intercontinental ballistic missile launch to mark the 85th anniversary of the foundation of its Korean People's Army.
N. Korea stages firing drill marking military anniv.: source
SEOUL, April 25 (Yonhap) — North Korea staged what appears to be the largest firing drill on Tuesday to mark the 85th founding anniversary of its military, a government source said.
"Signs are detected that North Korea's military is conducting a large-scale drill around the eastern port city of Wonsan on the anniversary," the source said.
USS submarine set to join USS Carl Vinson in drills near S. Korea
SEOUL, April 24 (Yonhap) — A U.S. submarine is set to join the USS Carl Vinson in drills near the Korean Peninsula, South Korean military officials said Monday.
"The nuclear-powered submarine USS Michigan will enter the waters off the peninsula soon or later to jointly conduct drills with the USS Carl Vinson," a military official told Yonhap News Agency.
Note: the USS Michigan is an Ohio-class SSGN, used for TLAM (Tomahawk) strikes; when fully stocked it carries 154 missiles.
Now we turn to North Korea, with Rimjingang, a magazine of undercover journalists reporting from North Korea:
Celebrating Mood in Pyongyang Is Propaganda, High Alert Is Reality
Q: How is the drill going on?
– Surveillance by turns in trenches. The reserve army dig the trenches and live there. Sometimes they can't go back home. I think this is more serious than the previous preparation for the quasi state of war (the North Korean government put on alert after the nuclear test on February 2013). Even though the members of reserve army are mostly factory laborers, they are ordered to continue drills, not allowed to go back to their factories as the situation is so serious. Anti aircraft guns with live ammunitions are ready to shoot at any time if order given. Authority was given to officers to shoot drones at their discretion. There will be a live ammunition drill of Red Army of Laborers and Peasants tomorrow.
Q: It must be hard time for the mobilized people.
– Needless to say, it is strenuous. The members of the Reserve Army should prepare half of foods needed by themselves for the period of the drill. It is tough! As the tension is seriously mounting at this time, the excuse of sick leave is not allowed. No exception for everybody. An officer who had a key for an arsenal was 30 minutes late. He was fired at the site immediately. It was warlike atmosphere. As the authority is making a great fuss that a war is imminent, many people say "If so, it should be really good that a war breaks." Close acquaintances at market agree with the saying, "Isn't it better to wage a war than to live like this?" It should be those in the upper level who would suffer the most.
The reference to shooting down drones concerns this earlier report:
Alert for Drone! Ammunition Distributed to Shoot Down!
The North Korean government is said to start a joint drill of civilians and military to shoot down sneaking drones in their sky from March 14. They are so highly on alert for the infiltrating drones that ammunitions are distributed and a reporting system related to the drones is newly set up. (Kang Ji-won)
The contents of the drill is observing, finding, reporting, and shooting drones. Participating units are Reserve Army of Laborer and Peasants, Reserve Forces, Youth Red Guard and military forces in the area.

Sydney based fashion tech startup Wearable X's latest smart clothing concept is now on sale. Nadi X combines fitness tights with a custom developed language that interacts with the skin through haptic vibrations. They cost $299 a pair and you can order them now online with shipping due in August 2017.
The pants provide gentle pulses at the hips, knees and ankles to encourage you to move and hold positions correctly. Syncing up to an app via Bluetooth, the garment communicates feedback to guide correct posture and form. From the cute comic strip explaining how Nadi X works, it looks like the motor is housed in the removable Pulse module. It looks pretty unobtrusive, though, as part of the sleek design which is good news.
Co-founder and CEO of Wearable Experiments, Billie Whitehouse, said Nadi's real time technology, "Not only acts as that guide, but also integrates into your everyday life". The action images suggest they would be suitable for yoga, pilates and stretching.
Nadi X comes in four sizes - XS, S, M and L - and in four styles - Midnight, Midnight with mesh, Black/White with mesh and Navy/Gray with mesh.
The tights sync up to an Android app, (iOS available later), that can be paired to monitor form and alignment based on a range of user movement. Other features of the app include recommended poses to help improve form and flow. "As someone who doesn't always know the correct form or alignment in poses, I find having that proper guidance is crucial," Whitehouse added.
Wearable X is also known for its conceptual design arsenal including the FOX Alert Shirt, Durex Fundawear and Navigation Jacket.

I had my grandparents over who felt at home (we're portuguese) in the restaurant. The food was lovely. I greatly appreciate the variety of dishes in the menu, allowing for people with different food requirements to eat happily at the same table. The staff is also very friendly and helpful.
Amazing food. The menu has just changed and is even better than before. The duck egg was my favourite. I had two of their ginjito cocktails which are stunning. Friendly and efficient service.

Smart phones have become a necessity of the hour and it is no alien science that the usage of smart phones is only going to increase rapidly. Around 80% of the audience access their social media through their cell phones while the remaining still use PC, laptops or other devices. This is a reminder to upgrade your marketing strategy keeping smart phones in the mind.
The online retail sales in India was around 14 billion U.S dollars in 2015 and is expected to reach a staggering number of 80 billion U.S dollars by the end of 2020. These numbers reveal that online shopping is not just here to stay but to expand by leaps and bounds.
You are more likely to try out a brand suggested by your friend rather than trying it after seeing an advertisement. Thus marketing your product through your consumers can be pretty much effective. Using your customer experience as your content on social media can really be beneficial for your brand. To an extent this method can also help in organic targeting of audience.
Many brands including some big one's started using SnapChat for their promotion. Snapchat is a messaging app where one can send photos/short videos to their contacts. Recently, Instagram added its 'story' features where we can share our moments of the day. This is also called real time marketing.
All thanks to 'adwords', now it is possible to target the exact audience we want to tell our story to. 'PPC' has made it easy for marketers to communicate their impact to its narrowed down audience based on their information.

Q: How to convert IEnumerable list to Datatable in C# I am stuck with the following problem:
I normally use the function below to transfer custom data to DataTable but in this case the input data is a class composed of lists. I just need to write in DataTable the first element of each list per row. Could you help me to adjust this function in order to achieve this?
public List<int> xID { get; set; }
public List<string> xName { get; set; }
public List<string> xType { get; set; }
public List<string> xSource { get; set; }
public List<int> xmdID { get; set; }
public List<string> xMDName { get; set; }
public List<string> xUser { get; set; }

public static DataTable ListToDataTable<T>(IEnumerable<T> list)
{
    Type type = typeof(T);
    var properties = type.GetProperties();

    DataTable dataTable = new DataTable();
    foreach (PropertyInfo info in properties)
    {
        dataTable.Columns.Add(new DataColumn(info.Name, info.PropertyType));
    }

    foreach (T entity in list)
    {
        object[] values = new object[properties.Length];
        for (int i = 0; i < properties.Length; i++)
        {
            values[i] = properties[i].GetValue(entity);
        }

        dataTable.Rows.Add(values);
    }

    return dataTable;
}

Based in Carra answer I tried the code below but it did not recognize pType type (The type or namespace name 'pType' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?))
var v = properties[i].GetValue(entity);
Type pType = properties[i].PropertyType;

if (pType.IsGenericType && pType.GetGenericTypeDefinition() == typeof(Nullable<>))
pType = Nullable.GetUnderlyingType(pType);

                if (pType.IsEnum)
                    pType = Enum.GetUnderlyingType(pType);

                if (v.GetType().GetGenericTypeDefinition() == typeof(List<>))
                {
                    values[i] = (v as List<pType>).First();
                }

UPDATE
I guess it is not the best solution because it does not accept any List type but it is the best I could do:
    public static DataTable ListToDataTable<T>(IEnumerable<T> list)
    {
        Type type = typeof(T);
        var properties = type.GetProperties();

        DataTable dataTable = new DataTable();
        foreach (PropertyInfo info in properties)
        {
            Type propertyType = info.PropertyType;

            if (propertyType.IsGenericType | propertyType.GetGenericTypeDefinition() == typeof(Nullable<>) | propertyType.IsEnum)
                propertyType = propertyType.GetGenericArguments()[0];

            dataTable.Columns.Add(new DataColumn(info.Name, propertyType));
        }

        foreach (T entity in list)
        {
            object[] values = new object[properties.Length];
            for (int i = 0; i < properties.Length; i++)
            {
                var v = properties[i].GetValue(entity);
                Type pType = v.GetType().GetGenericArguments().FirstOrDefault();

                if (v.GetType().GetGenericTypeDefinition() == typeof(List<>))
                {
                    if(pType == typeof(int))
                        values[i] = (v as List<int>).First();
                    else if(pType == typeof(string))
                        values[i] = (v as List<string>).First();
                }
                else
                {
                    values[i] = v;
                }
            }
            dataTable.Rows.Add(values);
        }
        return dataTable;
    }

A: You need something like this:
foreach (PropertyInfo info in properties)
{
    if(info.PropertyType == typeof(IEnumerable))
    {
       dataTable.Columns.Add(new DataColumn(info.Name, info.Cast<object>().First().GetType());
    }
    else
    {
       dataTable.Columns.Add(new DataColumn(info.Name, info.PropertyType));
    }
}

foreach (T entity in list)
{
    object[] values = new object[properties.Length];
    for (int i = 0; i < properties.Length; i++)
    {
        var v = properties[i].GetValue(entity);
        if(v is IEnumerable)
        {
          values[i] = (v.Cast<object>().First()).First();
        }
        else
        {
          values[i] = v;
        }
    }

    dataTable.Rows.Add(values);
}

A: This works for me. I got it here and modified it a little bit.
public static DataTable ToDataTable<T>(this System.Collections.Generic.List<T> collection, string _sTableName) {
        var table = new DataTable(_sTableName);
        var type = typeof(T);
        var properties = type.GetProperties();

        //Create the columns in the DataTable
        foreach (var property in properties) {
            if (property.PropertyType == typeof(int?)) {
                table.Columns.Add(property.Name, typeof(int));
            } else if (property.PropertyType == typeof(decimal?)) {
                table.Columns.Add(property.Name, typeof(decimal));
            } else if (property.PropertyType == typeof(double?)) {
                table.Columns.Add(property.Name, typeof(double));
            } else if (property.PropertyType == typeof(DateTime?)) {
                table.Columns.Add(property.Name, typeof(DateTime));
            } else if (property.PropertyType == typeof(Guid?)) {
                table.Columns.Add(property.Name, typeof(Guid));
            } else if (property.PropertyType == typeof(bool?)) {
                table.Columns.Add(property.Name, typeof(bool));
            } else {
                table.Columns.Add(property.Name, property.PropertyType);
            }
        }

        //Populate the table
        foreach (var item in collection) {
            var row = table.NewRow();
            row.BeginEdit();
            foreach (var property in properties) {
                row[property.Name] = property.GetValue(item, null) ?? DBNull.Value;
            }

            row.EndEdit();
            table.Rows.Add(row);
        }

        return table;
    }
