Ever since meeting a billionaire's wife who only ever wore black when she went out at night, I swore to do the same thing. I've been doing this for getting on for two years now and it works an absolute treat. Sure, she's wearing Dior and I'm wearing Comptoir Des Cotonniers, but who cares.
A lot of people feel bad about wearing black, just generally. They think it's boring, or it's cheating or it's funereal or something. And to those people I say: knock yourself out. Wear as much colour as you want! Twist yourself up in knots about whether or not this goes with that. I've been ready for ages – I'll meet you at the bar.
But if you don't care, if you just want to be able to get dressed to go out without thinking about it, if you don't want to risk ever turning up and looking wrong or out of place, just only ever wear black.
I have got three black dresses, two pairs of black trousers, a black jacket, a black shirt and some black sweaters and – for going out at night at least – that's it. Those are my options and it's very relaxing.
"I always wear the same thing at night," I will say at dinner when the conversation comes round to clothes.
This is a probably very nice dress, from Zara. It is perky and playful with little frills down the front and a pie-crust collar. I am seriously considering adding this to my stable of black party dresses. But in the photo, it looks awful, you can't see where it starts or ends or anything. So black is a hard "sell" on the page and when fashion editors want to put together a shoot, they don't want to feature a lot of black dresses. But I'm telling you, if you find it tricky to get dressed for an evening out, especially if you have got small children – just wear black.
I accessorise, obviously. With gold! Anything, as long as it's gold. Gold is my One Colourful Thing at night. If you see a woman in Soho past 7pm, being knocked down at a zebra crossing and she's wearing a lot of black and gold, call my husband because it's ME!
I also came across just now, also in Zara, this very nice clutch, which would nicely update my all-black evening wardrobe: I am channelling Jo Elvin's Ox Blood pantsuit (but only a bit).
Yes to all of this. I always wear the same black things, used to care at bit but now don't at all as I figured the only person who notices is me. Am thinking of adding to my repertoire with a black jumpsuit though, so versatile!
I wear black, all black sometimes. I have the most gorgeous pair of hipster boot cut black jeans, black boots and I wear with a tight black top. I kid on I look a bit like catwoman, the Michelle Pfeiffer version. Actually I look like a small slightly faded chipmonk without the red lippy. There's no real relevance here, I just wanted to think about Batman, Michael Keaton version for a minute or two. Esther – you look amazing in the olive green I've seen you wearing in pics. You probably look amazing in black too.
I look bloody awful in black but great in navy. Do you reckon I could just do this instead?
Just recently decided to wear black all the time. Loving it.
Hello ! Do you have any recommendation about childrens clothes ? I buy my daughter's clothes from Boden once in a while. Where do you shop for your childrens clothes ?
I hear you, I am ALWAYS in black. The angsty goth phase never went away for me, it just aged like fine wine.
Do you think having bright orange hair counts as your one colourful thing?

An investment fund is divided into a number of equal units which are then held for each investor. The value of a unit (the unit price) is calculated, usually daily, broadly representing the value of the whole fund divided by the total number of units. If the unit price is increasing, the value of the assets held in the fund is increasing.
Each time an investor pays a contribution into the fund, they're allocated more units. Similarly, if they decide to withdraw or switch benefits from the fund, units are sold.


The right to information in criminal proceedings ensures that every arrested person knows why they have been arrested and what evidence has been collected against them. It also includes information on one's own rights in case of arrest, such as the right to remain silent or the right to consult a lawyer.
In practice, people do not often know their rights. Even if they are notified of their rights, many people will not be able to fully understand them because custody is a high stress situation and because the language used is often complex and technical. Moreover, police authorities too often try to make people waive their rights, in particular calling a lawyer or remaining silent.
As a result, many people are not able to defend themselves and challenge their arrest, just because they do not know how to exercise their rights.
We want everyone arrested or suspected of a crime to be fully notified of their rights whilst in police custody, in a way that is understandable to them. This means tailoring the Letter of Rights to the specific needs of the person, especially if they belong to a vulnerable group such as children, foreign nationals, or people with mental disabilities.
We want Letters of Rights to be accessible to laypeople, who often do not have any legal background and therefore are not prepared to fully understand the scope of their rights.
With the support of international law firm DLA Piper, we have mapped the state of things across 58 jurisdictions all over the world and produced an international research report to illustrate the findings. The research shows that written Letters of Rights are only mandatory in the EU and very few other countries (Australia, Iran, and Turkey).
Though a standard-bearer, the EU is far from perfect.
This is why in 2016, Fair Trials joined a coalition of NGOs (coordinated by the Hungarian Helsinki Committee and including the Bulgarian Helsinki Committee, the Lithuanian Human Rights Monitoring Institute, and Rights International Spain) to study the accessibility of Letters of Rights in Bulgaria, France, (link) Hungary, Lithuania, and Spain and their compliance with the EU Directive on the Right to Information.
Complex and technical language, making it virtually impossible for laypeople to understand their rights.
After the publication of the regional report, Fair Trials developed a brochure on the European model of Letters of Rights, (link) as set out in the EU Directive on the Right to Information, which includes a guide for public authorities to re-write the domestic Letters of Rights using a clearer format and accessible language.

A positive relationship between different countries requires a lot of mutual understanding and trust. And understanding of this kind can only happen when they proactively engage in communication through various exchanges in ideas, values, traditions and other aspects of culture. For that reason, cultural diplomacy has a significant role to play in connecting people and strengthening relations between different nations in today's globalised and interdependent world. On 20 November, 2018, the Australia-China Institute for Arts and Culture (ACIAC) hosted a Public Seminar on "Cultural Diplomacy & Australia-China Relations" to which we invited three distinguished speakers to share their views.
This Public Seminar was hosted and moderated by ACIAC research fellow and academic course advisor of the Master of Chinese Cultural Relations program, Dr Xiang Ren. Dr Ren welcomed the audience and briefly introduced the design of the seminar with particular reference to the topic, its background and structure. And he also introduced the speakers.
Distinguished Professor Ien Ang is a world-class authority in cultural studies. As the founding director of the Institute for Culture and Society at Western Sydney University, she has championed research on patterns of cultural flow and exchange in the globalized world with a particular emphasis on the politics of identity and difference; migration, ethnicity and multiculturalism in Australia and Asia; and issues of representation in contemporary cultural institutions. In her speech on "Cultural Diplomacy, Soft Power and Cultural Relations", she critically examined the evolving theorisations of cultural diplomacy and reviewed its discourses and practices in different national contexts. Distinguishing it from "Soft Power", she argued for an alternative cultural diplomacy that was dialogic and cooperative. She also took the audience through some of the recent initiatives from China and Australia and explained where and why they may have succeeded or failed.
Professor Jocelyn Chey is one of Australia's best-renowned diplomats with decades of experience of working with mainland China and Hong Kong. She was the founding director of the Australia-China Institute for Arts and Culture at Western Sydney University. Speaking about the "History and Contemporary Development of Cultural Diplomacy Between Australia and China", she recalled the non-Australian beginnings of Australia-China cultural exchange in the 1970s with an Australian performance of "The Sound of Music" when she served as the first Australian cultural counsellor and then she traced the history by highlighting a few other incidents in the last four decades such as the visit of the Nanjing Acrobatic Troupe and the Flying Fruit Fly Circus in 1982, the Sydney Olympics in 2000, Beijing Olympics in 2008, Guan Wei's art exhibition in 2011 and the Chinese Chamber Music Festival in Sydney in 2017. While drawing attention to the power of arts and culture in developing cultural relations between the two countries, she also pointed to changes in public perceptions and the agendas of cultural/public diplomacy on both sides, as shaped by the changing political and economic contexts.
Professor Nicholas Jose is one of Australia's best-known China experts. He taught at Chinese universities 1986-87 and became Australia's cultural counsellor 1987-90. He has since then become a very well-known literary writer with over a dozen books to his name and an academic. He is currently Professor of English and Creative Writing at the University of Adelaide, where he is a member of the J M Coetzee Centre for Creative Practice, and Adjunct Professor at the Writing and Society Research Centre at Western Sydney University. In the last four decades, he has formed extensive connections with Chinese writers, editors, publishers, translators, funding bodies, agents, festivals, book shops, etc. In his speech on "Reading Each Other: A Case Study of Australia-China Literary Exchange", he celebrated the enormous achievements in the two-way exchange between the two countries in the last 45 years, highlighting the Australian Writers' Week, OzAsia Festival and the China Australia Literary Forum between the Chinese Writers' Association and Western Sydney University. Expressing his concern that, despite their familiarity, the two countries still face a big deficit of understanding, he recommended that getting people in both countries to start reading each other's books would definitely help move the relationship forward.
At the end of each presentation, the speakers took some questions from the audience. Responding to these questions, the speakers reasserted the importance of cultural diplomacy initiatives on both sides of the Australia-China relationship. Professor Ien Ang believed that Australia's "white nation" legacy and feeling of distance towards Asia had probably contributed to a general soft power deficit. Professor Jocelyn Chey believed a country's good cultural diplomacy initiatives needed to be explained fully so that it could move beyond simple propaganda. Professor Nicholas Jose believed that, as far as literary exchanges are concerned, he did not see a problem with a readiness for both Australian and Chinese governments to put aside resources and money to support communication between the two peoples.
The Seminar was attended by an enthusiastic crowd of 50 including ACIAC Director Professor Labao Wang, ACIAC research fellow Dr Kiu-Wai Chu, Professor Judith Snodgrass, and Professor Ivor Indyk of Writing and Society Research Centre at Western Sydney University. Also in attendance were Veechi Stuart, Executive Director of Varuna - the National Writers House, Anke Timm and Ariel Zhang of Bridging Hope Charity Foundation, Dr James Laurenceson of University of Technology, Sydney, Professor Christina Slade (former Vice Chancellor of Bath Spa University in the UK), Dr Gay MacDonald of the University of New South Wales, Jackie Menzies of the Asian Arts Society of Australia, artists Jayanto Tan, Tony Twigg, Jingmin Ren and David Chang, and some students from Western Sydney University and other universities, including those in ACIAC's own Master of Chinese Cultural Relations program.

HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) - Construction experts said that railing collapses like the one that killed a 21-year-old man at Ala Moana Center on Sunday are extremely rare and usually involve corrosion.
Nicholas Freitas died Sunday night when he fell several stories from the third level of the center's mauka wing. A longtime friend who also fell is in critical condition.
"Normally what happens is the connections of the building, the guard rails, are weakened and somebody leans against then," said Jim Reinhardt, president of Architectural Diagnostics.
"The most common (cause) we see is water tends to collect in the concrete at the base of the guard rail and then over time that causes the reinforcing to rust and when the reinforcing rusts, the concrete expands."
Hawaii News Now reviewed some of the rails near the center's mauka wing and found some rust on the steel rails and tiny cracks in the concrete base.
It's unclear whether the rust and cracks are impacting the structure. Expert say the best way to test that is by shaking the rails to see if they hold.
"You should be able to have a 200-pound person, a 200-pound load pushing out on it," Reinhardt said.
"If you had a large person who bumped into the railing that wouldn't be anywhere near a 200 pound load. If somebody were to run directly at the hand rail you might exceed the 200 pound load."
Rick Gill, a Spokane, Wash.-based construction and building safety expert, said that while Hawaii law does not require government inspections, it's usually good practice that the owner examine the buildings regularly given the center's age.
"Just like tires on a car have a limited life expectancy, you would be expected to monitor that product or that component within that expected life expectancy and see that it's still structurally sound and functioning," Gill said.
Legal experts said the families of the men who fell four stories have grounds to sue.
"The fact that two individuals fell four stories, that suggests some substantial liability for the Ala Moana Center," said attorney Myles Breiner.
Ala Moana Center General Manager Francis Cofran issued the following statement: "Our hearts go out to the families and all those affected by this tragic event," and that they are working with a structural engineering firm to ensure the "safety and welfare of our customers and employees."
The incident still has shoppers stunned.
"It's really surprising. I thought ... it would be a little bit more secure but things happen I guess," said Lea Kitamura, of Manoa.
Honolulu police and the city's permitting department are investigating.


The Tufts College Divinity School was established in 1869, and in 1906 changed its name to the Crane Theological School.
T.J. Sawyer was appointed the first Packard Professor in 1869. The Reverend Charles H. Leonard of Chelsea, grandfather of Leonard Carmichael, future president of Tufts, was the second faculty member, and succeeded Sawyer as dean in 1892.
The Divinity School was initially housed in Ballou Hall, in a room on the second floor. With the construction of West Hall in 1872, divinity students were offered accommodation there. 1891 saw the building of separate quarters for the school with the construction of Miner and Paige halls. Miner Hall was built to provide classroom and office space for the school while Paige Hall served as a dormitory and chapel. The Divinity School at this time reached one of its peaks with forty-four students enrolled for the 1892-93 academic year.
In 1906 the school received a much-needed gift of $100,000 from Albert Crane, A1863, in memory of his father, Thomas Crane, a trustee from 1852 until his death in 1875. The school was subsequently renamed the Crane Theological School.

Grandma joined the angels before I was born; a misguided truck took her life from us when my mom was just eight. Though I had only met her in old photos and stories of lightheartedness, I felt her close when just a child. My sisters and I would climb the stairs to our attic escape to find her wooden rocker swaying to and fro. We could not see her, but we knew she had come to play.
Perhaps because of the rocker or the stories of life eternal, I began to dream--of an unseen world where she lives still. Someday I know we will meet, but for now I send Mother's Day greetings through the veil of the years....to the mother....of my extraordinary mother.

Q: Boot USB ubuntu image from iPad? I know that you can run Ubuntu from a flash drive, booted from another machine. What I'm wondering is whether it's possible to boot such an image from an iPad (jailbroken or otherwise). I know that apple doesn't want you to use a usb drive, but I understand that it's possible to attach a usb drive using the usb camera adapter.

A: There have been projects to get operating systems other then iOS installed on the iPhone, however, it's not as simple as putting a bootable image on a USB and connecting it to an iDevice.  For more information regarding this see:

There seems to have been a lull in development lately.  The short answer to your question is that currently it's not possible to boot a Linux image from an iPad/iPhone.

Vitalik Buterin the founder of the currency wanted to provide online users with the facility of decentralized exchange platform.

The capital market is one of the segments of financial markets. It deals with channeling of surplus funds in the form of medium-term or long-term funds to deficit unit. The transfer of funds takes place through different types of financial instruments. If you are looking for short-term investment and wishes to trade online, then you could opt for trading in virtual currencies. Cryptocurrency market is gaining quite a bit of popularity nowadays as many people who entered the market has been able to book profit in a few days. Read through the Qprofit system review to learn more about it. Below mentioned are the various financial instruments (medium of exchange) that are traded in the capital market.
Debt instruments- The debt instruments are issued by the governments or organizations to finance the capital intensive projects. They are obtained through either the primary market or secondary market. In this case, the relationship between two parties is of borrower and creditor. It does not imply ownership in the business. The contract is drawn for a specific period and the interest would be paid in regular intervals as mentioned in the agreement. Principal sum invested will be repaid at the end of a contract period and the interest would be paid either in annually, semi-annually or quarterly. Investment in this instrument is risk-free hence yields lower returns.
Equities- This is also an instrument that is issued by the organization which can be obtained from either in the primary market or secondary market. In this case, the buyer of the shares becomes the owner of the business until it gets sold to another party. The equity holder received dividends instead of interest and this dividend is a percentage of the profit paid to the shareholder. The risk factor of this instrument is very much high but it gives a higher return. But whenever the company faces liquidation, the shareholder will be towards the bottom of preference as they are the owners of the company.
As the mainstream currency flows in the global economy, many options come for the startup is that have found the cryptocurrency world to be a haven for all their fundraising strategy. The ICO has been a popular form of raising the required working capital, without having to go through the complex channel finance from traditional banks. The underlying business models that are designed by the new enterprises are highly dependent on this mode of financing to expand their product and service base including selling their own coins, tokens.
The entire ecosystem of a startup who are dependent on the crypto way of financing has ensured a more professional outlook, to keep a keen watch on issuing security based upon the underlying intention of the company to be financed and have stricter regulations in place.
Investing in real estate has been a long-term trend, to keep the industry rolling and return on the investment to be on the high radar. Players in the financial services hubs have been increasingly investing in the world of cryptocurrency ever since the client list started expanding for the coin currency by boosting the access of the coin currency for the clientele. FinTech companies have moved ahead in the crypto world to launch a proprietary currency, with the amazing underlying blockchain, supported by the real estate groups.
Dealing in real estate markets is quite tricky, while the trend to invest in them is high; the markets are volatile and have to protect the high leveraged investors from the rising inflationary pressures in the traditional financial markets.
The constant ambiguity that surrounds the digital currency to invest in real estate has been a constant no gainer, with a cryptocurrency that is highly backed and regulated, reducing the inherent risk of the buyers, banks are now optimistic to adopt the underlying technology to boost the sector and encourage buyers of digital assets.
Technology has catapulted us to a position of great advancements. Machines are getting intelligent day by day. Business, a field that requires astute research, where resourcefulness and being inventive comes handy the robots have made their mark. The concept of crypto robots are indeed new and still in the mend, but it is simply the most promising development in the industry.
Cryptorobots are programs that are specifically designed to perform trading. It ranges from shares to bitcoins. The question then is why robots?
Robots specifically designed for the purpose of trading by specially written algorithms help in this process. The robots belong to a kind of called Automated Trading System which is the principle behind Cryptorobots. When an algorithm is designed into the bot, based on the data collected relevant to the given problem, the bot produces a result on its own intelligence by processing the data with the algorithm.
Emotions can play a very big role in trading, and if not careful there are chances of huge losses from it and Cryptorobots are governed by a set of prewritten rules.
Traders before going forward with their investment in the bots, they can check the rules governing the trading using bots across data with already proven results.
Traders may use multiple strategies by using multiple kinds of bots thereby having chances of more success.
There are two important bots which help with trading but differs in their logistics and the items they are used for trading.
Crypto Robot: It is a kind where based on algorithms the robots invest for the trader in shares based on the algorithms, that is found to be most effective with larger profit margins. Special blog sites need the trader to register in them by filling out a few details, and once registered the robot will do the investment for the trader based on its algorithm.
Crypto Robot 365: It is a kind of robot that trades with bitcoins as well as shares. It uses a unique method of synchronizing the software of the broker account with the software of the robot.
Cryptorobots push the level of marketing to the most advanced standards. It is indeed the future of trading and it does depend upon the effectiveness of the algorithms they use.
The business plan includes a financial plan that comprises of different financial statements which shows where the organization is standing currently and where it is expected to be in the future. The plan will help you in determining the amount of finance the business needs and also helps others in understanding whether it is wise to invest in your company.
The first thing one need to decide is the ways you are planning to raise the funds for your business. Banks and financial institutions are the obvious choices many people opt to raise the money. You also have to work out the amount required to raise the short-term capital loan to meet the working capital requirement and the long-term loan to meet the purchase expense of larger assets. One can also look at raising funds through the online trading of digital currencies to meet short-term needs. Applying loan to banks will be a good choice to raise money for long-term needs.
Profit and loss statement- The income statement gives a summary of the company's expenses and revenues. Revenues are the organization's sales and any other source of income it receives. The expenses comprise of the cost of all the goods sold. The bottom line of the income statement shows the organization's net income that is revenue minus expenses.
The organization's balance sheet shows the company's assets and the liabilities. The asset of the organization should match perfectly with the liabilities. This is quite an important statement as it shows the organizations current financial position for a particular point in time. It helps you to give a better viewpoint with regard to the working of the company.

Catholics remember, mourn victims killed in Maryland newspaper shooting

By George P. Matysek, Jr.
BALTIMORE (CNS) — While Catholics throughout the Archdiocese of Baltimore offered prayers and support for the families and loved ones of five people murdered June 28 at the offices of the Capital Gazette in Annapolis, a former longtime sports editor for the newspaper mourned his friends as exceptional journalists who also were good human beings.
A 38-year-old gunman using a shotgun blasted his way into the newsroom in what police said was a targeted attack against the publication.
The alleged murderer, later identified as 38-year-old Jarrod W. Ramos of Laurel, killed Rob Hiaasen, 59, assistant editor and columnist; Wendi Winters, 65, writer and editor; Gerald Fischman, 61, editorial page editor; John McNamara, 56, sports writer; and Rebecca Smith, 34, sales associate.
Two others were injured in the attack.
Ramos, in custody and charged with five counts of first-degree murder, had a long-standing dispute with the newspaper after the Capital Gazette wrote about a criminal harassment case against him. He sued for defamation, with courts ruling in the newspaper's favor.
Baltimore Archbishop William E. Lori said he was "shocked and saddened by the terrible shootings at the Capital Gazette."
"We pray for the eternal rest of those who died," he said. "We also pray for their families, friends and colleagues in journalism who mourn their loss."
Gerry Jackson, the sports editor for the Capital Gazette for more than 20 years who now works for the Baltimore Sun, said he is deeply pained by the deaths of his colleagues. He was a friend of four of the victims and considered McNamara in particular to be as close as a brother.
McNamara, an author of two books about basketball at the University of Maryland, worked on the news desk of the Capital Gazette before leaving to work for the Prince George's Journal, also in Maryland. Jackson hired him back to cover sports.
"We were a small staff," Jackson said, "and we needed to work with good people who can get along with people really well. John grew up in a big, Catholic family like I did. We talked about how that taught you to get along with co-workers because you learn the give-and-take of putting up with different personalities."

Jackson noted that McNamara was the eldest of seven and a graduate of St. John's College High School in Washington. One of McNamara's uncles was a Catholic priest, Jackson said.
Jackson did not know McNamara's current parish in the Archdiocese of Baltimore, but noted that he and his wife were active in its pre-Cana program. Whenever difficult situations arose, Jackson said, everyone turned to McNamara for support.
"He was the rock of his family," Jackson told the Catholic Review, the archdiocesan news outlet.
Jackson also spoke fondly of three other friends lost in the rampage.
Hiaasen was the kind of editor "who would go out of his way if you wrote a column to say how much he liked it," Jackson said.
Winters, who frequently covered community news, was a generous person whom Jackson called the "godmother" of the newsroom.
He described Fischman as a shy, detail-oriented person whom others in the newsroom relied on frequently.
"He was the guy you went to in the office if you had a grammar question or questioned the usage of a word," Jackson said. "He was better than a dictionary."
Redemptorist Father John Tizio, pastor of St. Mary Church in Annapolis, said his parish community "holds and lifts up in prayer all the victims of this senseless act of violence in our city."

He noted that the Capital Gazette is located not far from St. Mary's mission church of St. John Neumann. He considers it a neighbor.
"Our hearts and minds are heavy with grief," he said. "But in this grief we know our God will help us find healing, peace and strength in our faith and in one another."
The pastor said the victims, the injured, their families, friends and loved ones would be remembered at all Masses the weekend of June 30-July 1.
Christopher Gunty, CEO of Catholic Review Media and a board member of the Maryland Delaware D.C. Press Association, as well as a former editor of The Catholic Sun, echoed the words of the association's president, Robin Quillon, who described the Capital Gazette as "a critical part of the community in Annapolis and in our association."
"The staff of Catholic Review Media joins our prayers for the victims and their loved ones, as we witness again the impact of violence and guns on our community," Gunty said. "Let us pray for an end to these kinds of incidents."
Maryland Gov. Lawrence Hogan, Jr., ordered flags to be flown at half-staff June 29 in honor of the victims.
"The Capital Gazette is my hometown paper, and I have the greatest respect for the fine journalists, and all the men and women, who work there," the governor said on social media. "They serve each day to shine light on the world around us so that we might see with more clarity and greater understanding."
Jackson and his wife, Nancy M. Jackson, a former reporter for the Capital Gazette and the Catholic Review, attended Mass at their parish church of St. Michael in Overlea the morning after the murders. They have been overwhelmed by expressions of support.
"Keep reaching out to one another and try to see the good in others," Jackson said.
George P. Matysek, Jr., is digital editor for the Archdiocese of Baltimore. Emily Rosenthal, Catholic Review staff writer, contributed to this story.

The oath of office of the President of the United States is the oath or affirmation that the President of the United States takes after assuming the presidency but before carrying out any duties of the office. The wording of the oath is specified in Article II, Section One, Clause 8, of the United States Constitution.
The Chief Justice administers the oath of office in most cases, but the Constitution does not stipulate who gives the oath. Judges and officials of the lower courts, such as the Justice of Peace, may administer the oath of office.
Who administers when the president takes the oath?
If the ceremony takes place on the Capitol steps on January 20, the Chief Justice administers the oath. If the previous president dies while the vice president is away from Washington, anyone authorized to administer oaths can do so.
The Vice President has a different Oath of Office than the President. The Vice President's Oath of office does not come from the Constitution rather it comes from a law passed by congress.

Seeing Orange
Jenji Kohan Knows Orange Is the New Black Season 5 Wasn't Very Good
The show-runner calls some of the season's plots "fan fiction."
Courtesy of Jojo Whilden/Netflix.
Orange Is the New Black's most recent season, critics largely agreed, was impactful but far from its best. After a devastating Season 4 finale, in which fan-favorite Poussey Washington (Samira Wiley) was killed by a guard, Season 5 promised to follow the riot that followed: a 13-episode chapter that would meticulously depict three days of action. In a New Yorker profile, however, show-runner Jenji Kohan offered fans one reason to be hopeful for Season 6: she knows that the most recent season was not the show's best.
As Kohan and her co-producer Tara Herrmann see it, the main problem that unfolded last season was a shift in the writers room: "We had lost a bunch of the original writers," Herrmann said. "It wasn't anyone's fault. It was just a new dynamic—people were attached to the characters as viewers, not as creators." Kohan's interpretation was a little less diplomatic; she called some of last season's plots "fan fiction." The New Yorker notes that the season's new hires "included sitcom veterans, a playwright, a refugee from the procedural Bones, and a novelist, Merritt Tierce, whom Kohan met at MacDowell, the artists' retreat in New Hampshire." But as the profile adds, only two of those Season 5 scribes ended up being rehired for Season 6.
So, what's coming up when Orange returns? Its premiere still a ways away, so the future is largely murky. The New Yorker notes that the season might dedicate some screen time to processing Donald Trump's ascent, and given how things left off last season—all of the inmates were separated and presumably sent to different prisons—it sees safe to assume that several characters from the show's swelling ensemble will not return. One example? Possibly Diane Guerrero, who plays Maritza; she just booked a series regular role on CBS's sitcom Superior Donuts, which probably means a return trip to prison is not in the cards for her. We all know that after last season, Litchfield and its inmates will never be the same after the riot; here's hoping their future is bright.

Home Lifestyle Amid life's turmoil, take a look on the bright side of life
Amid life's turmoil, take a look on the bright side of life
Vectorios/iStock via Harvard Gazette
By Brett Milano
Harvard Correspondent/Harvard Gazette
Bad day, or week? Or maybe it's the endless eon that 2020 and the first month of 2021 have felt like?
A Harvard expert has some advice, and it doesn't involve diving ever deeper into coverage of the pandemic or politics.
"Try to have some perspective," says Laura Kubzansky, Lee Kum Kee professor of social and behavioral sciences at Harvard's T.H. Chan School of Public Health (HSPH). "If you look at the history of world events, things are always changing. So it helps to avoid saying things like, 'This will never change, we'll be in this situation forever.' And it helps to recognize where the silver linings are — which I'd say the news media is especially bad about doing."
If you can't conjure up some optimism, she says, try focusing on the hopeful things in your life. "Sometimes it's just about realizing there's a certain amount of randomness in the world and you need to roll with it. Maybe now that the world is disrupted, you can find out things about your kids that you wouldn't have learned otherwise. Maybe you can notice that it's a beautiful foliage season, and spend time outside. And maybe you can think that we've just been too driven, we all need to slow down.
"Finding perspective isn't just about optimism — it's also about the things that travel with it, in terms of feeling a sense of meaning and purpose. And that goes with the understanding that you're not going to feel good all the time — that's OK. It's a hard time and nobody's saying 'Look on the bright side every minute.'"
"Higher levels of optimism been shown to be associated with lower risk of developing diabetes, coronary heart disease, and poor lung function."
— Laura Kubzansky, Harvard Chan School
Julia Boehm, a former research fellow at Harvard Chan School and current associate professor in the Cream College of Health and Behavioral Sciences at Chapman University, agrees that staying upbeat these days can be a challenge. "It's something I'm working hard on in my own life. The thing to do is to hold onto what we can in these unusual circumstances. We might be losing something in terms of larger social relationships but there are ways of cultivating that, like having game nights over Zoom and really holding onto the people in your bubble. We can still practice kindness toward others in this time, which is something that's shown to produce feelings of happiness. And you can always say, 'The sun still rises every day, and the sunset still looks beautiful.'"
Optimism may not come easy, but evidence is growing that it makes a measurable difference. "What we have done is to understand that optimism is in some way protective for health," Kubzansky said. "Higher levels of optimism been shown to be associated with lower risk of developing diabetes, coronary heart disease, and poor lung function. And it can contribute to greater likelihood of achieving exceptional longevity — as well as healthier aging. This is important, because living longer but sicker is not something anyone aspires to. We have documentation of these associations, and we're looking more closely into the mechanism."
Beyond its intrinsic value (that is, being optimistic is a positive facet of mental health in its own right), optimistic people tend to make healthier decisions. "They tend to be more goal-orientated, willing to delay gratification: 'It may be more fun to sit on the couch and eat bonbons, but I also have this goal of being fit, so I'm going to the gym' and optimism can help keep people focused on their larger goals. Data suggest this is the case. Optimism is linked with better health behaviors, a better diet, less likelihood to smoke. So behavior is one pathway, but we are also looking at potential biological pathways that might link optimism to better health including cellular markers. Some initial findings suggest some biological pathways are plausible. For example, people who are optimistic have healthier lipid profiles, and less risk of developing hypertension."
Boehm adds that studies have indicated that a positive attitude reduces the risk of heart disease by anywhere from 10 to 40 percent. "Let's be honest, optimism is not going to stop you from getting cancer if you have a history in your family and aren't taking care of yourself. Where it comes into play is there are often factors that encourage us to take actions that help our health. And people who are optimistic tend to engage in healthier behavior than people who are not."
A devil's advocate could certainly argue that there are a lot of old cranks out there. The caustic Dorothy Parker outlived most of her Algonquin Round Table colleagues, and Bob Dylan just released one of his darkest albums at age 79. "There are always going to be people who appear to be the outliers," says Boehm. "But maybe that cranky person is the one walking around with some resolve for the future."

The procedures listed below will be used by departments to make payments to human subjects for their participation in a research study funded by grant or non-grant funds. Human subjects are living individuals about whom an investigator (whether professional or UM student) is conducting research by obtaining either (1) data through intervention or interaction with the individual, or (2) identifiable private information. Human subjects differ from participants in that personal data is collected from human subjects and human subject participation may be anonymous.
Please submit paperwork to the appropriate Fund Accountant (e.g., Grants – Office of Research & Sponsored Programs or Non-Grant – Business Services).
Request for Human Subjects Payment - Submit a Human Subjects Payment Form to your Fund Accountant at either Business Services or ORSP. If cash is requested, the form must be received at least 48 hours prior to when the cash is needed. Checks will be issued if a subject will receive $600 or more in a calendar year.
Human Subjects Payment - Upon receipt of the Human Subjects Payment Form the following steps will be initiated.
Cash: An advance will be initiated at Treasury in the name of the Project Director. These funds cannot be used for any purpose other than subject reimbursement. Use of gift cards/coupons follows the same process as cash payment because such items cannot be paid via University procards; project director purchases with cash and is accountable.
Check: Human Subject Payment Form will be forwarded to Business Services' Accounts Payable for payment. If more than one check is requested, use Additional Check Payment Requests form.
Whether grant or non-grant, a Human Subjects Payment & Certification Form must be submitted to your Business Services or ORSP Fund Accountant monthly to reconcile a cash advance. Remember, the Project Director is accountable for these funds.
Cash Human Subjects Payment – Cash payments are disbursed to the subjects by the Project Director. The Project Director must keep a subject payment record which includes each subject's signature, amount of payment, and the date of payment. This documentation can be in the form of a signature sheet or separate subject vouchers.
Closing Fund, amount returned - If cash was not fully utilized on a sponsoed project and is being returned, review the ORSP Internal Processing of Checks or Cash.

Malls are on the rise in India, despite the fact that online shopping is gathering pace in the country.
"There is so much talk of the death of brick-and-mortar retail as a consequence of the aggressive advent of e-commerce into the country, when the fact is that shopping malls have just got started in India - and they are definitely here to stay," says Anuj Kejriwal, the managing director and chief executive of the retail division of Mumbai-based property consultancy Anarock.
An indication of the strength of the retail sector is that private equity players invested more than $700 million into Indian retail in the first three quarters of last year - 90 per cent of the investments that came in over the course of the previous two years, according to Anarock.
There have been some poorly planned malls that have failed in India, but Mr Kejriwal says this is not indicative of a wider trend, and that developers have learnt from those mistakes.
The fact that open spaces are vanishing in India's cities us helping to make shopping malls more attractive to Indians as they look for entertainment options, he says.
Almost 85 malls are expected to open in India over the next five years.
At the same time, India's e-commerce sector is expected to expand at 30 per cent a year to reach a gross merchandise value of $200 billion by 2026, according to Morgan Stanley. There are 60 million online shoppers in India currently, but the bank forecasts that this will rise to 475 million, or more than half of the country's internet users, by 2026.
Anupam T, the vice president of Oberoi Mall in Mumbai, says that his shopping mall is seeing an increase in visitors and higher spending, including on its food and beverage outlets, and he only expects this to grow as the country becomes more affluent. Customer spend at the mall is up four-fold over the past seven years, says Mr Anupam. But he says shopping centres have to work hard to keep attracting consumers.
"We've continuously added more food and beverage, more entertainment, and better fashion brands, so that customers keep coming to us," he says.

Cardi B penned an emotional tribute to Takeoff after his "Celebration of Life" ceremony on Friday, revealing she feels great "pain and sorrow" due to his death.
"The impact you had in this world was so considerable and we have struggled to grasp this tragedy," the "WAP" rapper, 30, wrote in a lengthy caption on Instagram, alongside a slideshow of images of Takeoff.
"I am heartbroken but I am grateful for all the precious memories we got to share while you were here with us. This has truly been a nightmare and the pain is incomparable."
Cardi B, who is married to Takeoff's cousin Offset, noted that her husband and Quavo, who together formed the rap group Migos with the now-deceased rapper, feel an "emptiness" and so she is praying for their "strength."
"I believe that angels send signs and beautiful dreams to loved ones to assure them that they're watching them and they're okay and happy…send your mom some of those 🙏🏽," the Bodak Yellow rapper added.

Cardi B also said it "hurts" her to reflect on the impact that Migos has on the music industry because she knows "it will never be the same again."
"I will remember your remarkable talent and your dope ass personality," the mother of two concluded.
"I pray that you are at peace and in paradise because you deserve every bit of it. I know God opened the heavenly gates for you with a warm embrace. Rest in power TakeOff 🚀💔I will also love you 4L & after."

Takeoff was just 28 when he died.
Several of Cardi B's famous friends and fans sent their condolences in the comments section of the post, including Lizzo, who wrote, "Praying for you and your family still, ❤."
Earlier in the week, Cardi B publicly mourned Takeoff's death for the first time by retweeting a video in which he spoke on the importance of family.
"It's always going to stay with me, too. I ain't never going to take it off," the "Bad and Boujee" rapper said in the clip of a ring that had a photo of him as a boy and his mom.
Takeoff, whose real name was Kirsnick Khari Ball, was shot dead at age 28 in Houston on Nov. 1.
Cardi B said Takeoff's death brought a "great deal of pain and sorrow to so many lives."

A coroner's report released last week revealed the "Walk It Talk It" rapper was shot in his head and torso and he died on the scene.
His killer is still on the loose, but police are actively investigating the fatal incident.
His wake, which Cardi B attended alongside Offset and Quavo, was held in Atlanta on Thursday, followed by a star-studded funeral on Friday.
