LINKED PAPER
Uncommon levels of relatedness and parentage in a cooperatively breeding bird, the Brown-headed Nuthatch (Sitta pusilla). Han, K.L., Cox, J.A., and Kimball, R.T. 2015. The Wilson Journal of Ornithology, DOI: 10.1676/14-193.1. VIEW
Cooperative breeding in birds occurs when more than two adults contribute to raising young at a single nest. Traditionally, these groups are thought to be family groups formed by a breeding pair and non-breeding helpers. Although helpers are usually male offspring from previous years (Ekman et al. 2004), some cooperative systems may also include helpers related to only one breeder, unrelated helpers, or a mixture of related and unrelated helpers. With the advent of genetic tools, we've learned that there is a lot of variation in patterns of relatedness. Additionally, while monogamy was assumed to be a component of cooperative groups, genetic tools have also allowed us to assess the extent of extra-pair (but within breeding group) and extra-group fertilizations observed. This variation in extra-group fertilizations and relatedness can affect behaviors such as parental investment and mate selection, and suggests that an understanding of relatedness is important to understanding the evolution of cooperative breeding in birds. Still, genetic studies of cooperatively breeding birds remains uncommon and represents less than 10% of cooperatively breeding species described (Riehl 2013).
Brown-headed nuthatches (Sitta pusilla) are cavity nesting birds that live in open pine forests of the southeastern United States (Slater et al. 2013). They are non-migratory and maintain territories year-round. They are facultative cooperative breeders, that is some, but not all, breeding groups have helpers. Although most helpers appear to be male offspring from previous years, very little is known about their mating system.
We studied a population at Tall Timbers Research Station in northern Florida from 2006 to 2010. Nuthatches excavate fresh cavities in decayed snags or dead trees each breeding season. Therefore, nests were relatively low, making them relatively accessible. We collected genetic samples from 50 family groups representing 59 clutches and genotyped them using 9 microsatellite markers developed for this species.

About 23% of the population consisted of cooperative groups, and cooperative groups had just a single helper (87%), although up to three helpers were observed at a nest. Most helpers were related to at least one member of the breeding pair. Of the 23 helpers we genotyped, only four were unrelated to either member of the breeding pair, while ten were related to only one member of the breeding pair. Helpers were primarily male, although we had one case of a female helper who was unrelated to either member of the breeding pair. Most helpers were the result of delayed dispersal, although in a few cases older helpers were observed providing assistance after their own attempt to breed failed (redirected helping).
Helper relatedness to only a single parent could be due to a number of factors. One parent could die and the surviving adult acquires a new mate. Females have a higher mortality than males (Cox and Slater 2007) and is consistent with our observation that more helpers were related to the breeding male only than the breeding female only. Alternatively, helpers related to the breeding female only could be the result of past extra-pair copulations. In at least one instance, a helper was only related to the female although he was banded as a nestling of this breeding pair the previous year.
Extra-pair paternity
Although monogamy has been shown in some cooperative breeders such as the Florida Scrub Jay (Quinn et al. 1999), this was not necessarily the case with Brown-headed nuthatches. Of the 59 nests genotyped 41% showed evidence of extra-pair young. This level of extra-pair fertilizations that we detected is high compared to those observed in other passerines and most cooperative breeders (Westneat and Stewart 2003, Cornwallis et al. 2010).
Figure 2 The proportion of nests with extra-pair young in pair (N=40) and cooperative (N=19) groups. Proportions of extra-pair young were calculated within each group type. There was no significant difference in proportion of nests with extra-pair young between pairs and cooperative groups (Fisher's exact P=0.40).
Extra-pair young were found in nests of both cooperative groups and pairs. Extra-pair young represented only a small fraction of the nestlings; most nestlings were sired by the dominant male, consistent with other studies of cooperative groups where extra-pair young were found (reviewed in Cockburn et al 2004). There was no difference in the proportion of nests with extra-pair young between pairs and cooperative groups. If helpers better defended a territory from intruders, we would have expected a higher level of extra-pair paternity in pairs. Alternatively, if helpers reproduced in cooperative groups, we would have expected to see higher extra-pair paternity in cooperative groups. Helpers generally did not sire offspring in the nests where multiple paternity was found, as might have been expected if helpers were related to the breeding female. However, we found two possible cases of incest, where helpers were related to both members of the breeding pair. The relatedness of the nestling to the helper in these instances (r = 0.72 and 0.79) was greater than would be expected (r = 0.5) if they were full siblings. Although incest overall appears to be rare in Brown-headed nuthatches, this suggests that mechanisms to avoid inbreeding are not perfect and could become a greater issue in smaller, more isolated populations, which may be occurring due to habitat loss and fragmentation.
Overall, Brown-headed nuthatches have a far more complex mating system than we originally expected based on field observations alone, and emphasizes the importance of combining genetic techniques with field studies.

Former World No. 1, French Open Champion Ivanovic Retires At Age 29
French Open champion ANA IVANOVIC "announced her retirement from tennis at the age of 29 on Wednesday because she no longer feels fit enough to compete at the highest level," according to Zoran Milosavljevic of REUTERS. Ivanovic became the first Serbian woman to win a grand slam tournament when she beat Russian DINARA SAFINA in the '08 French Open final, "following in the footsteps of compatriot" NOVAK DJOKOVIC who clinched the Australian Open title the same year. Ivanovic said on Facebook, "There is no other way to say it. I have decided to retire from professional tennis. It has been a difficult decision but there is so much to celebrate." Her French Open victory "catapulted Ivanovic to the summit of the WTA tour rankings" but she only occupied the top spot for a few weeks and dropped to 22nd at the end of '09 after a "dramatic loss of form." Ivanovic: "I played so many memorable matches. But staying at those heights in any professional sport requires top physical form and it's well-known that I have been hampered by injuries" (REUTERS, 12/29). The BBC reported Ivanovic said that "she will explore opportunities in business, beauty and fashion in retirement and said it will allow her more time for her work with" UNICEF, with whom she holds the position of National Ambassador for Serbia (BBC, 12/28). BLEACHER REPORT's Gianni Verschueren reported Ivanovic claims she "won't disappear from the sport completely," as she could have a "future in the media or coaching." Meanwhile, her husband, ManU midfielder BASTIAN SCHWEINSTEIGER, is "strongly linked with a move to MLS, so the couple could be heading for the USA shortly" (BLEACHER REPORT, 12/28).

One person was displaced every two seconds in 2017
Record-breaking.
Image: Reuters/Ali Hashisho

PublishedJune 20, 2018
A record 16.2 million people were forcibly displaced as a result of persecution, conflict or generalized violence in 2017. This is the highest number recorded by UN High Commissioner for Refugees. On average, 44,000 were displaced every day in 2017—about one person every two seconds.
The figure brings the total worldwide population of forcibly displaced people to a new high of 68.5 million, according to the UNHCR. That's more than the population of France.
The agency's report, issued ahead of today's World Refugee Day (June 20), notes that the crises in South Sudan and Myanmar have significantly added to the increase, which was largely tied to deteriorating situations and enduring conflicts in countries around the globe. The vast majority of displaced people sought safety in neighboring countries: According to the report, 85% of refugees are in developing countries.
Turkey remained the world's leading refugee hosting country in terms of absolute numbers, followed by Pakistan and Uganda. More than two-thirds of refugees originated from just five countries: Syria, Afghanistan, South Sudan, Myanmar, and Somalia.
Lebanon, where 1 in 6 people is a refugee, continued to host the largest number of refugees relative to its national population. Jordan (1 in 14) and Turkey (1 in 23) ranked second and third.
Overall, children aged 18 or under made up about half of the refugee population in 2017.
The US received the largest number of new claims for asylum, with 331,700 in 2017. In contrast, Germany saw a sharp decline in 2017. The European economic powerhouse received 198,300 new applications, a 73% drop from 2016. Italy received the third-largest number, with 126,500.

Homage, or ripoff?
Pulp Fiction.
Vince (Dexter Fletcher).
A better actor than Travolta, perhaps.
But still…
The Usual Suspects.
Mike Myers stands in for Kevin Spacey.
But let's talk about the upside.
This film started slow.
Trite.
But it got better.
Indeed, it resurfaced and landed at mediocre.
Much better than I initially thought was possible.
Simon Pegg is a bit hamstrung here.
Shame, that.
The néo-noir is not very original.
But the color does it justice.
Better than hackneyed black and white.
Super-vivid black and white.
Here, more like Blade Runner (1982).
Margot Robbie is pretty good here.
And yet, the end is more ripoff.
Kill Bill.
Nurse.
Whistling.
Bernard Herrmann.
Standing in for Daryl Hannah.
I guess Margot Robbie is famous or something…
Harley Quinn.
Seems she is already typecast.
Self-parody.
Pigeonholed.
Quite a lot of QAnon here, what?
Q in a heart.
La Lapine Blanche (follow the white rabbit).
Lewis Carroll.
Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum.
Bob Dylan.
Adele.
Down the rabbit hole.
A trail of crumbs.
Clues.
Mystery.
Theatrical.
Hard Candy.
Skyfall.
Modigliani.
NSA.
Marionettes.
I'm usually bewitched by the broads, but it's the gents who rule here.
And not the ones you'd think.
The best part of this film is the acting of Max Irons and Dexter Fletcher.
Fletcher is pithy.
Splenetic.
Irons is naive.
Real.
Sure, there is a plot twist, but the lobotomy is in extremely poor taste.
And another ripoff.
Spectre.
Myers is good.
Robbie is good.
Pegg is good.

Spectre [2015)
There's a moment in this film when a character says "shoot" instead of "shit". It is the linchpin of the film. What follows is the strangest cut in James Bond history since Roger Moore abruptly went gaucho in Moonraker. But what we cut to is perhaps the first truly vicious, self-inflicted attack of self-parody the James Bond franchise has ever experienced. Yes, self-parody. Vicious. Like a postmodern vomit of confetti. This whole film. But mainly starting at the amorous activities which follow the word "shoot".
Derrida would find his hinge for deconstruction at "shoot". As if the film could not bear one more mild expletive and still retain its PG-13 rating.
But let's dig a little deeper.
A series notorious for running low on creativity must have been thrilled to have the intellectual property rights to S.P.E.C.T.R.E. following the death of Kevin McClory. It was not just the death of McClory which allowed the franchise to resurrect its proto-NWO, but also the acquisition by MGM and Danjac LLC of McClory's estate in late 2013.
And so things must have looked rosy for Eon Productions.
Sadly, they made a few blunders.
Those blunders became the ramshackle, mutilated would-be masterpiece Spectre.
And so just what were these mistakes?
My guess is that many of them occurred behind closed doors.
There are moments in this film at which a film school freshman could have done a better job reeling in the mise-en-scène than did Sam Mendes. But there's a problem with that equation. Sam Mendes is not that bad a director. NO ONE wielding a nine-figure budget is that bad a director. And so chalk another crappy movie up to the real villains: MGM and Colombia Pictures. Credit Eon Productions likewise with rubberstamping this high-school-science-fair of a picture.
But we can't let Mendes off that easily. I hope it was a good payday (again) Sam, because this film is generally a piece of shit.
HOWEVER…there are moments of what could have been. If the executives had kept their noses (and asses) out of the production process, this could have been a homerun.
Christopher Waltz is good when approached with Hitchcockean framing. As a silhouette. You can feel Mendes reaching for Mulholland Dr. But as per the Sony hacks, eventually you have to show the guy (or do you?). Suffice it to say that Mr. Waltz is the least-scary Bond villain ever and barely more creepy than Jar Jar Binks.
And so it becomes obvious that cost cutting has its downside. Who was the other bloke they were going to get for the villain? Who cares. Waltz sucks royally. And yet, he is more competent as an actor than the film is solid in structural integrity.
As a whole, Spectre is a disaster which should never have made it out the door of the dream factory. Anyone with an artistic bone in their body could have "fixed" this film. Mendes was apparently not allowed to actually direct.
Fix number one would have been cutting an hour's worth of superfluous meh. I mean, really godawful, expensive, explosive meh. Jesus…this film didn't need to try and compete with Spiderman or whatever the superhero flavor of the week is.
The writers (God, the writers…) of this film are not worth their weight in rancid butter. I heard rumors that the dialogue was bad. Truth is, it is dry-heave bad…but mainly near the end of the film (the last quarter).
Next time, spend $200 mil. on a single, competent writer (Pynchon perhaps) and <$1 mil. on stunts and CGI. This film experiences a leveraged shite effect throughout. Oh, by the way…the opening scene in Mexico City is probably the weakest part of the film. I would rather see Daniel Craig take a moist crap on a silver platter.
But let's be fair…
This film tried. It had grand aspirations. SPECTRE…yes, bringing it all back home. Establishing credibility from New World Order to Snowden. Awesome. Well-done in that regard.
As for the execution…for fuck's sake.
I'd rather have a clumsily-performed lobotomy than watch this film again any time soon.
The biggest upside of the film is Léa Seydoux. Ok, so casting got one thing right. It almost makes up for Christopher "The Last" Waltz.
There are very important themes addressed in this film. This could have been a light for liberty. Someone sabotaged it. Find that corporate person and you have found the real head of the real SPECTRE.

Whether the problem is sexual abuse, discrimination, or harassment, it is no secret that Wall Street has the problem in spades. Given its wealth, power, and institutional ability to keep secrets, Wall Street has largely managed to avoid the spotlight now shining on other conspicuous business arenas.
The heavy-weight financial firms on what we call "Wall Street"—that is, banks and financial companies from New York to California—are overwhelmingly male-dominated, making the industry one of the most difficult for women to speak up when they see, hear about, or experience abuse. The longstanding fear that a "good 'ole boy" system will protect perpetrators and black-ball complainants is unfortunately true. But, "Time's Up" on all of that. Now is the time for change.
No business should be allowed to permit abuse to become an accepted part of its culture. Our law firm has historically handled cases where the power disparity between abusers and their targets is large. Our goal is to level the playing field and help survivors get the full measure of justice they so deeply deserve.

Well, well, it is not necessary so to speak.


Much is unknown about the foreign policy positions of the two contenders for next year's general election.
Narendra Modi, chief minister of Gujarat and likely prime ministerial candidate for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the general election next year, would seem in virtually every respect to be poles apart from his potential rival, Rahul Gandhi of the Congress party.
For one thing, Modi is an experienced administrator, while Gandhi has had virtually no time in administrative roles. Moreover, while Modi seems enthusiastic about contesting the election, Gandhi is ambiguous at best. And while Modi is an adept orator, Gandhi often struggles in front of an audience.
Yet if there is one similarity between the two, it is that neither seems strong in the realm of foreign policy.
For Modi, foreign policy appears to be influenced by trade and economic ties with the outside world. As Gujarat chief minister, he has led delegations to China (where he received a very warm reception) and Japan. While the EU may have distanced itself from Modi in the aftermath of the 2002 Gujarat riots, it has begun to reach out.
The U.S. is also warming to him. Although Washington withheld a visa from Modi in 2005, numerous U.S. business and political delegations have since visited Gujarat. Now, U.S. political figures and even former U.S. Ambassador to India, Robert Blackwill have spoken in favor of granting a visa to Modi and engaging. Strong Gujarati lobbies in both the U.K. and the U.S. have been helpful in thawing relations.
Pakistan could be more complex for Modi, for a number of reasons. First, many Pakistanis see him as the villain of the 2002 violence. Second, Modi is often quite shrill on the topic of Pakistan – perhaps because it appeals to large sections of his support base. Still, he has met with delegations from Karachi, the capital of the Sindh province that borders Gujarat. Many observers think that in power, Modi would be pragmatic and forced to seek closer economic ties with Pakistan. Too many allies of the BJP, especially those from border states, are keen on stronger business links.
Rahul Gandhi is even more of a foreign policy enigma. This is somewhat unusual, because Congress under former prime ministers Jawaharlal Nehru, Lal Bahadur Shastri, P.V. Narasimha Rao and incumbent Manmohan Singh has traditionally given high priority to international affairs and India's position on the world stage.
Certainly, once in power, Gandhi would be able to call on the collective wisdom of a battery of experienced advisors, while benefiting from the fresh ideas of some promising younger party members, but he will still need to set the direction. This will be especially critical in the case of sensitive relationships, such as those with neighbors Bangladesh and Pakistan. If he is serious about becoming prime minister, then, Gandhi will need to share his worldview with the nation.

Experts slam agriculture reform programme, warn of shortage amid pandemic
26-May-2020 Intellasia | JakartaPost | 6:02 AM
Agriculture experts have criticised the government's agrarian reform programme a lack of progress that led to low production yield and mounting food imports, pointing to possible food shortages if the COVID-19 pandemic continues.
University of Indonesia (UI) senior economist Faisal Basri has voiced his concerns over the increasing number of food imports over the years, saying that the government had been overly reliant on imports to cover the shortcomings of Indonesia's agriculture industry.
"Last year we imported $830 million worth of meat, $1.5 billion worth of fruits and $770 million worth of vegetables. Most of our imports also came from China, on which we become overly reliant," he said during a virtual public discussion on Friday.
The government data presented by President Joko "Jokowi" Widodo on April 28 showed that over 20 provinces faced shortages of staple food, such as garlic, sugar, chili and eggs.
Agrarian Reform Consortium (KPA) secretary-general Dewi Kartika said the government's botched agrarian reform programme was to blame for the shortages as a vast plots of farmland were constantly being encroached by mining concessions and corporate plantations.
"According to the National Land Agency's data, our farmland shrank by 650,000 hectares in 2018. Many were converted to be used by other business sectors such as palm oil, natural resources extraction and infrastructure," she said.
Agrarian reform is among the National Priority Programmes pushed by Jokowi's first-term administration in an effort to better distribute development and improve the people's life quality.
It includes programmes that are expected to alleviate poverty in villages, improve the country's food security and land production, acknowledge ownership rights over plots of land owned by individuals, the state and the general public, including land utilisation for the people's interest.
Dewi also slammed the government's plan to clear 600,000 ha of peatland in Central Kalimantan to produce buffer stocks amid the shortage, as a similar measure under former president Soeharto on 1 million ha of peatland resulted in crop failure and subsequent starvation.
We tried that approach during the Soeharto era, which ended with catastrophic failures. In addition, the programme also created unprecedented ecological damages," she said.
According to a report released in April by the Global Network Against Food Crises, a humanitarian organisation initiated by the World Food Programme (WFP), a total of 135 million people lived with acute hunger at the end of 2019. The number was likely to jump to 265 million as countries enforcing quarantines amid the pandemic, the report said.
As Indonesia relies on imports, market protectionism, especially during COVID-19 outbreak, could prompt other countries to halt their food exports. Such a policy could cause food shortages in countries that relied on the exports to fulfill their needs, said agriculture expert Sofyan Sjaf.
"The [WFP] has warned that millions of people could face food shortages as agriculture production yields drop due to the pandemic," he said during the same discussion. "We saw Vietnam take a precautionary step to prevent a potential shortage by clamping down on exports."
Sofyan also urged the government to curb the COVID-19 outbreak in rural areas to prevent a decrease in food production, as the majority of farmers are vulnerable to the disease.
More than 22,000 people have contracted COVID-19, with the death toll reaching at least 1,300 as of Sunday afternoon.
"Around 61 percent of our farmers are over 45 years old. We should increase our testing in rural regions and should not relax large-scale social restrictions [PSBB] when the infection rate is still high," he said.

Kahne snaps long losing streak, wins at the Brickyard
Tony Bogan
Kasey Kahne snapped a long losing streak by winning the Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
After a nearly two-hour rain delay, the race got restarted, but other contenders that looked to have good runs were felled by early troubles.
Chase Elliott had an engine go sour before a competition caution, and it eventually expired before the stage
ended, dropping him to a 39th place finish.
Dale Earnhardt Jr., entering his final race at the Brickyard, had an engine failure after contact with Trevor Bayne, causing him to finish 36th.
Kyle Busch looked to have the car to beat, leading the first 71 laps, and winning the first stage. Erik Jones
then led until the halfway point, and Ryan Blaney took over, leading six laps before Kyle Busch took the lead
Busch looked to break a 35-race winless streak, winning stage two, with Martin Truex Jr. in second and Ryan
Blaney in third, just like the first stage. Martin Truex Jr. took the lead during pit stops, and it was setting
up to be a dash to the finish between the points leader (Truex Jr.) and last year's winner (Kyle Busch).
On a restart after a Ricky Stenhouse Jr. crash on lap 106, Martin Truex Jr. made contact with Kyle Busch, and both
drivers ended up in the wall hard, and Truex Jr's car ended up on fire. Both drivers were able to walk away
unharmed, but their race was finished.
Matt Kenseth then took the lead for 21 laps before making a pit stop with 30 to go. After Erik Jones led a lap during
green-flag pit stops, the lead then went to Brad Keselowski. Jimmie Johnson was in 2nd, Kasey Kahne 3rd, Trevor Bayne 4th, and Michael McDowell rounded out the top five.
The top three were not going to be able to make it on fuel, and would inevitably have to pit soon, and the race was setting up to be between Trevor Bayne, whose last win came at Daytona in 2011, and Matt Kenseth, who would not be returning to the 20 car in 2018. Matt Kenseth was making up ground on the leaders, but appeared to level off as the laps wound down.
Kasey Kahne then made a pit stop before a big wreck with 11 to go involving out Clint Bowyer, Erik Jones, Jamie McMurray and Kurt Busch, red flagging the race. The caution was a huge break for Brad Keselowski and Jimmie Johnson, who were running low on fuel. Once the caution came back out, final pit stops began. Brad Keselowski won the race off pit road, and Trevor Bayne was second, followed by Jimmie Johnson.
The race then got restarted, and another wreck occured when Kyle Larson hit the wall going
into turn one setting up a restart with three to go.
Tony Bogan is a 2010 graduate of Shaker Heights High School. He covers high school sports in and around the Cleveland area, and has done part-time college basketball play-by-play for Cuyahoga Community College.

Philippines Calls for an ASEAN Common Stand on Regional and GlobalIssues
Todo Bira News 3/12/2015 07:28:00 PM
11 March 2015 – Philippine Foreign Affairs Undersecretary Evan P. Garcia urged his ASEAN colleagues yesterday to foster common perspectives on regional and international issues as a measure of ASEAN solidarity and Centrality. Undersecretary Garcia emphasized that where needed, ASEAN can be a more active player in the international arena when it faces common concerns.
The Undersecretary participated in a series of ASEAN meetings in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia from March 09 to 11 in preparation for the 26th ASEAN Summit to be held next month also in Malaysia. In these meetings, he noted that recent developments in the South China Sea highlight the need for urgent action to reduce the rising tensions in the area. He said that what is actually happening in the South China Sea does not match the diplomacy that is being undertaken to manage regional tensions, which are increasing the level of mistrust and heightening the dangers of unintended conflict in the region.
Undersecretary Garcia stressed that ASEAN Centrality necessitates finding the political will to address issues of common concern and improving ASEAN's institutional capacity to do so. Discussions on centrality should be coordinated across ASEAN's three Communities with the end view of taking a stand as a regional organization when needed. The ASEAN Secretariat, he concluded, must further develop its capacity to provide policy scanning and recommendations on regional and international issues.
At the Foreign Ministers' Retreat early this year, Malaysia said that ASEAN would intensify efforts to conclude a code of conduct in the South China Sea under its chairmanship amid growing concerns from some members about land reclamation activities in the contested areas. The Philippines cautioned that ASEAN's failure to address such critical issue in its backyard undermines ASEAN Centrality and unity.

Facebook has been serving up public listings for over a year now. Unlike most of the site, anybody can view public listings, even non-members. They offer a window into the Facebook world for those who haven't joined yet, since Facebook doesn't allow full profiles to be publicly viewable by non-members (unlike MySpace and others). Of course, this window into Facebook comes with a prominent "Sign Up" button, growth still being the main mark of success in the social networking world. The goal is for non-members to stumble across a public listing, see how many friends are already using Facebook, and then join. Economists call this a network effect, and Facebook is shrewdly harnessing it.
Making matters worse, public listings aren't protected from crawling. In fact they are designed to be indexed by search engines. In our own experiments, we were able to download over 250,000 public listings per day using a desktop PC and a fairly crude Python script. For a serious data aggregator getting every user's listing is no sweat. So what can one do with 200 million public listings?
I explored this question along with Jonathan Anderson, Frank Stajano, and Ross Anderson in a new paper which we presented today at the ACM Social Network Systems Workshop in Nuremberg. Facebook's public listings give us a random sample of the social graph, leading to some interesting exercises in graph theory. As we describe in the paper, it turns out that this sampled graph allows us to approximate many properties of the complete network surprisingly well: degree and centrality of nodes, small dominating sets, short paths, and community structure. These are all things marketers and sociologists alike would love to know for the complete Facebook graph.
This result leads to two interesting conclusions. First, protecting a social graph is hard. Consistent with previous results, we found that giving away a seemingly small amount can allow much information to be inferred. It's also been shown that anonymising a social graph is almost impossible.
Second, Facebook is developing a track record of releasing features and then being surprised by the privacy implications, from Beacon to NewsFeed and now Public Search. Analogous to security-critical software, where new code is extensively tested and evaluated before being deployed, social networks should have a formal privacy review of all new features before they are rolled out (as, indeed, should other web services which collect personal information). Features like public search listings shouldn't make it off the drawing board.

During a Tuesday session, 488 French Lawmakers voted for the extension of the operations, with only one vote against and 13 abstentions.
The vote came on the heels of France witnessing its worst terrorist attacks in decades, which left 17 people dead following three days of violence that started on January 7, when two armed men burst into Charlie Hebdo magazine's offices.
The coalition strikes against ISIL continues to yield no results with analysts arguing that the main aim of the US and its allies is to keep the wars going to destabilize countries like Iraq.
The ISIL Takfiri terrorists have taken control of large swathes of territory in Iraq and Syria since last year. The Iraqi army, backed by pro-government tribes, Shia volunteers and Kurdish Peshmerga, has so far managed to make significant gains in the fight against the terrorists.

Yale launches new IP Cameras
Published 29th July, 2016 by John Hatcher
Yale has launched its range of new IP Cameras.
According to a recent survey, when asked what security products Brits expect to see in a smart home, 58 per cent of respondents expected CCTV throughout their home, and 59 per cent wanted to control their home security from anywhere in the world using a mobile app. Yale's new Home View cameras allow you to do just that, enabling remote access to your home using the Yale Home View app on your smartphone or tablet.
The app works on both Android 4.4 and above, and iOS 9 and above operating systems. Additionally, the Yale Home View cameras can connect wirelessly to a Yale Hybrid DVR as part of your Smart Home CCTV System. This will allow you to record video from your Home View camera on to your Yale Hybrid DVR Hard Drive, and can be given as evidence to police in the unfortunate event of a break-in.
David Herbert, business development director for Yale Smart Living, said: "At Yale we place convenience at the centre of our Smart Living range, and develop devices that make everyday life that little bit easier.
"After conducting research into the state of the UK smart security market, we found that more and more homeowners are now demanding remote access and control via a smartphone to view their property. As a result, we developed the new Home View camera range, which helps homeowners put family life first. The cameras offer a simple set-up and are controlled via the Yale Home View app, while still ensuring a superior standard of security."

Is Carnival Row the new Game of Thrones?
Published on Thursday, 23 May 2019 Friday, 18 October 2019 by Bella
Is Carnival Row the new Game of Thrones? WMagazine thinks so!
In their article, they make a strong case for it:
[U]nlike Thrones, Carnival Row will take place in a vaguely futuristic city (albeit with Victorian-era touches, in a steampunk sort of way), and instead of ongoing wars and battle scenes, it will instead take on the form of a neo-noir mystery. Still, there's not only enough that appears to be in the show's DNA (including magical creatures and scheming members of a ruling upper class) to hook Thrones fans, but a few familiar faces from the Thrones cast will appear as well (in addition to veterans of the Outlander, Star Trek, Star Wars, and Misfits franchises).
What is Carnival Row even about?
Essentially, it's a fantasy series about the tensions of an immigration crisis.
It all takes place in the "neo-Victorian" city of Burgue, a city dominated by humans, but tensions emerge when magical creatures like elves and faeries start fleeing to the city as refugees once war breaks out in their homeland. As seems to be unfortunately natural to humans, they don't react too kindly to the outsiders. To make matters worse, a bunch of the newly arrived faeries end up murdered, including at least one faerie showgirl in the part of the city known as the titular "Carnival Row." Most of the humans don't really seem to care until a lone detective decides to take up the case. [Orlando] Bloom plays that detective, named Rycroft Philostrate, while [Cara] Delevingne plays a faerie known as Vignette Stonemoss.[…]
Who else is in the cast?
Indira Varma [Ellaria Sand, Game of Thrones] plays Piety Breakspear, who is described as "the regal and cunning matriarch of the powerful family that rules the city of the Burgue." […]
Misfits vet Karla Crome plays another faerie with a gift for poetry who is forced to work in a brothel to survive.
Our Andrew Gower gets a mention, too!
[…] Tamzin Merchant [Running Naked, Ark], the actress who was originally cast as Daenerys in Throne's ill-fated original pilot episode, also has a major role.
Merchant (Salem) and Andrew Gower (Outlander) play brother and sister Imogen and Ezra Spurnrose. They hail from a wealthy family that's falling on tough times, so they enter a business deal with a "Puck" who has moved across the street. And, in a bit of a taboo move, Imogen may or may not be falling in love with that Puck.

New Writer for Carnival Row
Published on Tuesday, 26 March 2019 by Bella
Good news as a second season of Carnival Row seems more and more likely to happen – as incredible as it sounds with so little information about season 1.
Only a few months away from the 10th anniversary of the Battlestar Galactica finale airing, actress Tricia Helfer presents a podcast called "Battlestar GalactiCast" in which she revisists episodes of the show with her co-host, journalist and writer Marc Bernadin.
In their latest editon, Marc Bernadin now revealed that he most recently joined the writing team for Carnival Row, which – he says – comes to Amazon Video "at some point later this year". Assuming season 1 is well into post-production by now, this can only mean the team is already busy with developing the next season.
Of course, there is no way of confirming whether Andrew will renew his role as Ezra Spurnrose for another season but we feel this is a strong indicator that the producers at Amazon Video feel very confident about their new series.
You can listen to the "Battlestar GalactiCast" Season 1 Episode 12 on Spotify:

According to the Daily Mail* and confirmed by several Instagram posts from cast and crew, Carnival Row is being filmed again in Prague.
* (Caution! Article contains a number of set photos preparing filming a rather gruesome scene)
It seems they're doing some reshoots for Season 1 of the fantasy-noir series which is set to be released some time in 2019 on Amazon Prime.

Actress Anna Rust on Carnival Row & Shooting in Prague
Published on Tuesday, 9 October 2018 Wednesday, 16 January 2019 by Bella
The Prague Reporter interviewed Prague born British actress Anna Rust who'll be playing Fleury in Andrew's upcoming series Carnival Row.
What can audiences expect to see in Carnival Row?
A great story, brilliant cast and an absolute and utter visual delight. It's set in a fictional neo-Victorian fantasy world, in which humans and mythical creatures live alike, and follows the investigation of the murder of a fairy showgirl on Carnival Row. It has a somewhat film-noir feel to it. There's nothing quite like this show.
Can you tell me anything about your character, Fleury?
Fleury is a mischievous fairy living on Carnival Row. You'll have to wait till 2019 to find out more!
Carnival Row is set in a fantasy world full of mythical creatures; how much of that did you get to experience on set through practical effects & set design?
The majority of filming took place in a studio, which meant most of the sets were built uniquely for the show. The set designers added so much detail to every part of the world – just stepping onto those sets was magical.
Carnival Row shot for six months in Prague. What kept the cast & crew busy when not filming?
A lot of us weren't permanently in Prague so we shuttled between the U.K. and Prague whenever needed, but when we had downtime, we did lots of lovely dinners, get-togethers, drinks… As we soon realised, Prague has no shortage of great places to go out!

Carnival Row: International Press
Published on Friday, 5 October 2018 Saturday, 6 October 2018 by Bella
The Austrian online paper "Kleine Zeitung" also reported about the "Amazon Prime Presents" event at the Curzon Mayfair Cinema in London this week (English summary below):
Ganz vorne mit dabei ist sicher "Carnival Row": Die von René Echevarria und Travis Beacham entwickelte Serie, die kommendes Jahr bei Prime Video starten soll, handelt von einer magischen Welt, in der mythische Kreaturen ihre Heimat verlassen müssen und auch eine gute Portion Krimi mit von der Partie ist. "Mir war einfach wichtig, dass dabei auch gesellschaftspolitische Themen verhandelt werden", sah Cara Delevingne eine Parallele zwischen Fiktion und Realität. "Immigration ist allgegenwärtig, und man muss darüber diskutieren."
Ähnlich sah es ihr Co-Star Bloom, könne man mit dieser "Fantasywelt" doch einen "Blick von außen auf unsere Gesellschaft" werfen. "'Carnival Row' ist dabei wie nichts, was ich zuvor gelesen habe." Viktorianische Einflüsse seien ebenso dabei wie Steampunk-Anleihen. "Und letztlich können wir in diesem Rahmen größere Fragen verhandeln." Delevingne, die eine Fee spielt, sieht in ihrer Rolle auch eine "Empfehlung" an die Menschheit. "Dieses Volk nimmt nur von der Natur, was es braucht, gibt aber auch etwas zurück. Außerdem ist sie eine Überlebende, sie kämpft, ganz egal was man ihr entreißt."
Für beide Schauspieler sind es die ersten Gehversuche im Serienfach. "Es war toll, mit vier verschiedenen Regisseuren zusammenzuarbeiten", so Bloom. "Dadurch bekommst du immer wieder einen neuen Zugang zu dieser Story, was eine echte Entwicklung nach sich zieht. Diese Flexibilität habe ich sehr genossen, es war gleichzeitig aber auch eine Herausforderung." Nicht zuletzt die an verschiedenen Orten abgehaltenen Dreharbeiten brachten den Hollywoodstar ins Schwärmen. "Was sie etwa in Prag aufgebaut haben, war unglaublich. Diese Detailverliebtheit: Das ist wirklich ein Zeichen dafür, welche Größe diese Serie erzielen will."
This summary was done by the author of this blog post. Please keep in mind that the quotes have been translated from English to German and then back to English, so we can't guarantee 100% accuracy:
Carnival Row is set in a magical world where mythical creature have to leave their home, and it also includes a murder mystery.
Cara Delevingne sees a paralell between fiction and reality and says it was important to her that the show addresses social and political themes. "Immigration is omnipresent and we meed to discuss it."
She also sees her character, a fairy, as some kind of "recommendation" for humanity: "It's a people who only take from nature what they need but they also give back. She's also a survivor, she keeps fighting no matter what is taken away from her."
Orlando Bloom adds that with this fantasy world you get to take a look at our society from the outside. "Within this framework, we can address bigger questions" and "Carnival Row is unlike anything I've read before."
For both actors it was the first time working on a multi-episode show and they enjoyed working with four different directors. Orlando Bloom liked the flexibility and calls it an advantage but also a challenge to access the story with a new perspective with each director. He was particularly impressed by the film sets in Prague, especially the attention to detail. "It's a sign which greatness the show is goingt to achieve."
"Der Tagesspiegel" also features an article about the event but Carnival Row only gets a brief mention.
Amazon Prime Video Presents: Carnival Row
Published on Wednesday, 3 October 2018 by Bella
On 2 October 2018 Amazon Prime Video presented some of their new and recurring shows to the press and invited guests in London, among them Andrew's new show Carnival Row.
We have no indication that Andrew attended the event but lead actors Orlando Bloom and Cara Delevingne spoke about the show, which is scheduled to be released in 2019.
According to Cara Delevingne, Carnival Row addresses "social and political themes. Immigration, classism and racism, important themes that need to be addressed more and more. It's fantasy that we have never seen before". She added: "The part I play has so much fire… Other characters and the story relate to what is happening in the world right now."
(Source: Business Standard)
The series follows an investigation into a string of unsolved murders that are eating away at whatever uneasy peace still exists. Orlando [Bloom] is playing Rycroft Philostrate, a police inspector, and Delevingne will be seen as a faerish refugee who flees her homeland to come to the Burgue.
(Source: Gulf News)
About her character Vignette Stonemoss, "a fairy fleeing persecution", Cara Delevingne said: "She is a survivor. She has been a victim but doesn't know what is she surviving for now. Everything has been taken away from her. Her culture and her family."
Her co-star Orlando Bloom described the show as a "sort of Dickensian, steam-punk, Victorian world with these remarkable and beautiful mythical creatures", and added: "When I got to Prague and saw the set they had built I was blown away, it was truly remarkable."
Head of comedy at Amazon Joe Lewis said in a statement:
There has never been a series like Carnival Row before.
The scope of the storytelling combined with the uniqueness of the world, themes and aesthetics haven't been on TV before.
A simple police investigation will lead us down a remarkable journey in a world where humans and creatures co-exist. We're so excited about what René [Echevarria], Travis [Beacham] and Paul [McGuigan] are creating and we can't wait to bring it to customers.

The show is certainly creating a lot of buzz already and we cannot wait to see more!

Carnival Row Release Date?
Published on Friday, 7 September 2018 Thursday, 20 September 2018 by Bella
One of Andrew's upcoming projects we are most excited about is Carnival Row. So far Amazon hasn't announced a release date yet but we're obviously not the only ones getting impatient!
Travis Beacham, one of the creator of Carnival Row, replied to a Twitter user's question on 7 September 2018:
Not soon enough! (Sometime in the first half of next year)
— Travis Beacham (@travisbeacham) September 7, 2018
David Gyasi, who plays a character named Agreus on Carnival Row, answered the same question on 31 August 2018:
We are hoping for some point in the 1st quarter of 2019. Cheers DG

Nathan Barr on Composing "Carnival Row"
Published on Saturday, 1 September 2018 Wednesday, 6 November 2019 by Bella
In their September issue Mix Magazine talked with award winning composer Nathan Barr (True Blood) about his "Stunning New Studio, a Rare Wurlitzer Organ, and the Tones of a Human Femur". Apparently both of these unusual "instruments" will play a part in composing the soundtrack for his current project Carnival Row:
Currently, Barr is scoring two projects — Amazon Studio's upcoming fantasy drama series Carnival Row and Universal Pictures and Amblin's fantasy adventure film The House with a Clock in Its Walls, opening in theaters this month.
For Carnival Row, Barr's left-of-center sound palette incorporates some of his more esoteric instruments, such as a glass armonica (designed by Benjamin Franklin in 1761) that he occasionally plays with steel drum mallets, a nyckelharpa, and the bottom pedals of the Wurlitzer Theater organ, which are capable of producing a low, rumbling growl. But the most unusual instrument Barr chose is the kanglang.
"It's a human femur from Tibet that's probably 150 to 200 years old. Some monks when they die have portions of their bones turned into trinkets or instruments," Barr explains. "The kanglang produces a strange, incredibly unique sound that's somewhere between music and sound design."
In another interview with Reverb, Nathan Barr also mentions scoring Carnival Row:
I had a vision when I moved out here 20 years ago of a big, beautiful room to record music in and sort of having different stations, where I could bounce around from keyboards to strings to whatever, and that's kind of what it's become when we're not recording orchestra. I'm doing a show right now at Amazon called Carnival Row, and I'm using the Wurlitzer quite a bit in that—sort of almost as a synth. So we have the organ on and in place and mic'd most of the time. So I can just sit down, and then we've got a picture up on the stage as well.
This sounds really intriguing and we can't wait to hear the finished result – along with seeing Andrew Gower as Ezra Spurnrose in early 2019!
Interview with The Italian Rêve

Online Indie magazine "The Italian Rêve" published an interview with Andrew Gower today in which they talked about his motivations for being an actor as well as his recent work on Outlander, Black Mirror and Carnival Row.
We got some more information on Ezra Spurnrose, Andrew's character in Carnival Row, and Andrew confirms he will be a series regular.
He also gave us an update on Humpty Dumpty, the documentary about Merseybeats singer Tommy Quickly that he is developing with fellow Liverpudlian actor Stephen Walters.
We filmed a lot of it but it has been delayed and we are hoping to have something to show people by the end of this year.

'Carnival Row' Wraps Shooting in Prague
Published on Friday, 16 March 2018 Tuesday, 15 January 2019 by Bella
According to The Prague Reporter, Carnival Row has wrapped filming. In their article they also list a few interesting facts about the production:
An estimated 900 people worked on Carnival Row during its production in Prague, the majority of them local. Only about 60 cast and crew members were brought into the country for filming.
One of the most expensive projects to ever shoot in the Czech Republic […], Carnival Row spent an estimated 1.5 billion CZK (roughly $75 million) while in Prague.
The production was granted a tax rebate of more than 250 million CZK.
While filming primarily took place at Barrandov Studios in Prague, production also took place at locations in Liberec, the chateaux in Frýdlant and Krnsko, and Prachovské skály, the majestic natural rock formation […].
Carnival Row was originally sold as a spec script by Travis Beacham all the way back in 2005, and passed through the hands of directors like Guillermo del Toro […] and Neil Jordan at various stages of its development.
Directors Paul McGuigan (Lucky Number Slevin), Jon Amiel (Copycat), Andy Goddard (Set Fire to the Stars) and Anna Foerster (who shot Underworld: Blood Wars in Prague in 2015) each worked on the series in the Czech Republic.

'Carnival Row': Andrew Gower & Jamie Harris Set To Recur In Amazon's Fantasy Drama Series
Published on Friday, 15 December 2017 Tuesday, 23 October 2018 by Bella
According to Deadline.com, Andrew was cast in a recurring role in a new show for Amazon Prime.
Carnival Row is described as a fantasy-noir set in a neo-Victorian city. Mythical creatures fleeing their war-torn homeland have gathered in the city, and tensions are simmering between citizens and the growing immigrant population. The series follows the investigation into a string of unsolved murders that are eating away at whatever uneasy peace still exists. It's slated for premiere in 2019.
Gower will play Ezra Spurnrose, the scion of one of the most prominent families in the Burgue. When a business deal sours he finds himself under financial straights and reluctantly agrees, at his sister Imogen's behest, to enter into a partnership with a wealthy Puck who has moved in across the street. When he begins to suspect that Imogen is falling in love with the Puck, Ezra will stop at nothing to protect his family's reputation.

This means Carnival Row is the "mysterious" new project that forced Andrew to withdraw from playing Guy Titt in Nutritiously Nicola!.
We wish him all the best for this new role. He sure sounds excited about it!

A five-character SQLSTATE value ('42S02'). The values are taken from ANSI SQL and ODBC and are more standardized. Not all MySQL error numbers have corresponding SQLSTATE values. In these cases, 'HY000' (general error) is used.
For error checking, use error codes, not error messages. Error messages do not change often, but it is possible. Also if the database administrator changes the language setting, that affects the language of error messages.
Error codes are stable across GA releases of a given MySQL series. Before a series reaches GA status, new codes may still be under development and subject to change.
Server error information comes from the following source files. For details about the way that error information is defined, see the MySQL Internals Manual.
Occurs for failure to copy an .frm file to a new location, during execution of a CREATE TABLE dst LIKE src statement when the server tries to copy the source table .frm file to the destination table .frm file.
Possible causes: Permissions problem for source .frm file; destination .frm file already exists but is not writeable.
InnoDB reports this error when the table from the InnoDB data files cannot be found, even though the .frm file for the table exists. See Section 14.2.13.3, "Troubleshooting InnoDB Data Dictionary Operations".
InnoDB should no longer report this error as of MySQL 5.5. For tables without an explicit PRIMARY KEY, InnoDB creates an implicit clustered index using the first columns of the table that are declared UNIQUE and NOT NULL. When you drop such an index, InnoDB now automatically copies the table and rebuilds the index using a different UNIQUE NOT NULL group of columns or a system-generated key. Since this operation changes the primary key, it uses the slow method of copying the table and re-creating the index, rather than the Fast Index Creation technique from Implementation Details of Fast Index Creation.
InnoDB reports this error when a transaction encounters a deadlock and is automatically rolled back so that your application can take corrective action. To recover from this error, run all the operations in this transaction again. A deadlock occurs when requests for locks arrive in inconsistent order between transactions. The transaction that was rolled back released all its locks, and the other transaction can now get all the locks it requested. Thus, when you re-run the transaction that was rolled back, it might have to wait for other transactions to complete, but typically the deadlock does not recur. If you encounter frequent deadlocks, make the sequence of locking operations (LOCK TABLES, SELECT ... FOR UPDATE, and so on) consistent between the different transactions or applications that experience the issue. See Section 14.2.8.9, "How to Cope with Deadlocks" for details.

Do you have a Vonage branded phone or an unlocked phone? If Vonage branded, did Vonage give you the password? On a Vonage branded phone with Vonage software, I do not believe that there is a way to find the SIP password.
yes i have the Vonage branded phone and there is Vonage firmware on it.
i found the admin password but when i log in az admin i can see everything except the sip password which is shown same as other passwords in windows with star or circle ( in xp ) .
the other thing i noticed is that we can telnet to the phone, but i couldn't find the way to log in .
I do not know of a way to get the SIP password from the admin interface. In an unlocked phone, the SIP password can be reached under the SIP settings section of the WiFi menu (which is how/where you would enter soft phone settings), but that menu is not available at all on a Vonage phone.
The telnet interface is not functional.
I have access to SIP setting section but the way windows show the password is put some stars for it, thats microsoft standard .
I just want to see what is it .!
Understood - with the access that you have, you can change the password by typing in a new one, but you can't find what was typed there before.
PJ, how did you get admin access to your F1000? I want to do the same.
I cant tell you exactly how because of forum law and ,...... !
but anyway you should connect your f1000 to your laptop's wifi and then connect the laptop throught the lan to the net, then share the connection and do sniffing . everything sent plain text .
I cant tell you more.
Let me know what u do and how it goes !
Personally, for anything behind stars in XP I find that Aqua Deskperience works awesome.
