Stone Cold by carolinaheart
Table of Contents [Report This]
The break-up was legendary. There was yelling and screaming. Objects were thrown; insults were hurled. Crying was definitely involved, and maybe even some begging on her part. Throughout it all he remained reserved and resigned. This was happening, whether she liked it or not. He walked out of the door, and presumably out of her life for good.
But things happen, and life has a way of throwing things, situations, and people back in your face. Now, barley a year after their split, she was standing in front of him, wearing an expensive bespoke ball gown, for the first time in months. His tuxedo was tailor-made; she could tell. He always rented when they were together.
She was not sure what to say. The last year was hell learning to be without him. She never did understand the why of the break. Before the romance they had been best friends. She had been so sure. He was her one; and she was his. However, time proved her wrong as they faced each other as strangers, and not as the lovers or even the friends they had once been.
He looked different. She took in his features—still familiar, but foreign in a way. He had a beard now, and his hazel eyes held a glint she had never seen before. Even his posture had changed. He stood straight, with confidence. Had she dragged him down? Had their relationship been so excruciating for him? Had she been so clueless? She wondered as she wracked her brain for an appropriate response to this unplanned encounter.
"How are you?" He was the first to speak.
She continued to stand, mute. How was she to answer that question so it did not seem like she was still in pain from the abrupt end to their three-year long romantic relationship? The day after their breakup he returned to their home while she was at work. He packed his things. He was so thorough removing every trace that he ever resided in their shared domicile. When she arrived that evening, she noticed. It was hard for her not to notice that the small trinkets of himself were missing. The things he used to leave around the house staking his claim, declaring to the world, 'this is my sanctuary, too', were gone.
"I've been better." She finally responded, praying her voice did not betray her although her words already had. She wondered if he even really cared anymore.
"Oh," was his simple reply.
She could tell he was not sure what to say or how to handle her response. Rather than torture him further, she continued their conversation.
"What about you? How have you been doing over the last year?" She hoped her words did not sound spiteful. Despite the pain, she wanted to know. Despite the heartache, she still cared.
She felt his eyes; they were studying her. She could feel it. She wondered if he could tell, though she was clearly standing in front of him, she was dying inside. On an unknown plane of existence, she was curled up in the fetal position on a cold floor praying that eventually she would no longer feel.
"I'm good. I'm great, even." He hesitated a moment. "I've uh…I met someone."
She smiled. That is what the glint was—a spark, love for someone who was not her. The news should not faze her, but it did.
"Oh." She said.
"That's great."
"Yeah?" He questioned her sincerity.
"No, really it is. I'm uh…I'm happy for you." She said with a smile she hoped wasn't strained.
"Yeah really."
"Thanks." He said. He was nervous as he rubbed the back of his neck and tilted his head to one side.
She was happy for him. She wanted him to be happy. She wanted him to find love. She had hoped it would have been with her. But that is life. It was painful for her, for her heart. But if he was happy, then she would figure it out. She would find a way to make it through the place she was in at the moment.
"It was good." He said. He shuffled his feat before adding, "running into you," almost as an after thought.
"Yeah. Same." She said.
He smiled at her once more before walking away. She watched as he joined a woman who appeared to be waiting for him on the dance floor. The pair began to sway to the music of the live band. She would be okay, eventually. But right at that moment she felt stone cold.

No Regrets, Won't Apologise: BJYM's Priyanka Sharma After Release
The Quint 15 May 2019
After she was released by Kolkata Police on Wednesday, 15 May, BJP Youth Wing Convenor Priyanka Sharma said she has done nothing wrong and that she "will not apologise" for anything.
"I have not done anything for which I have to apologise. I will fight for this," she said during a press conference, adding that she had no regrets about sharing the meme.
Sharma was arrested on 10 May by the police under section 500 (defamation) of the Indian Penal Code and other provisions of the Information Technology Act on a complaint of local Trinamool Congress leader Vibhas Hazra, for allegedly sharing a meme on West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee.
She was then sent to 14-day judicial custody by a trial court. Speaking to reporters, she said though the meme was "being posted everywhere, I was picked because I am from the Opposition party."

'Targeted Me Because I am a Woman' ""Police told me that I have posted something like this and 'that is why we'll take you.' When I told them that let me talk to my party people and lawyer, they said that 'now you will talk there (police station) only.' They also took my phone."" - Priyanka Sharma at the press conference
"They have targeted me because I am a woman. I have been going to every house in Ward No 6 and giving booth slips, which they do not want. If a girl is going out, they cannot beat her by entering her house or cannot abduct her from the road, so for a normal thing, they have done this," she said.
When asked whether she found the meme objectionable, Sharma said "it was a troll (sic)," adding that if she's being arrested then the CM should also be arrested for her statements against Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Talking about her stay in the prison, she said that there was no water for women prisoners and food arrangement was also not good. "What to say... it is very bad," she added.

'Not Afraid of Anything'
Asked about her electoral aspirations and her entry into active politics, she said, "Absolutely, why not?" adding that this is the right time to do enter politics.
"There is no scope of fear now," she added. "For five days I was in prison, felt like five years and now I am not afraid of anything."
Her counsel told the reporters that while she was released in the morning at 9:45 am (on Wednesday), she was forcefully made to write a letter at 9 am, which he alleged amounted to contempt of court.
He also claimed that they asked for a certified copy of the letter, which the superintendent refused to give.
The top court did not ask for Sharma to sign any personal bond but she was made to do so, the counsel added.

The term "restorative dentistry" is the integrated management of oral health problems and restoring of the mouth to a functional and esthetic state. While it is not currently recognized as a dental specialty by the American Dental Association, general dentists are able to perform many of these procedures without additional education and certification. It all depends on how difficult the procedure is and what the dental professional feels comfortable with. Many of the procedures are also covered by the dental specialty of prosthodontic dentistry, including fillings, veneers, crowns, bridges, full and partial dentures and dental implants.
Restorative dentistry is often referred to as prosthodontic dentistry. Whether your dental professional uses the term "restorative dentistry" or "prosthodontic dentistry," the goal is to preserve natural teeth as much as possible. Replacing missing teeth with a dental implant, bridge, full or partial denture helps promote dental health as well. Filling in empty spaces in the mouth can help prevent cavities in the remaining teeth because odd-shaped gaps are vulnerable spots for plaque-causing bacteria to build up. Missing teeth also put extra stress on your remaining natural teeth because you don't have as much surface area to chew with.
When deciding on a strategy for restorative dentistry, you'll need to consider both physical and fiscal factors—your health and your budget. Most dentists involved in restorative dentistry will try to preserve your natural teeth if possible before resorting to full or partial dentures so you won't have to remove and clean the devices regularly. But sometimes full or partial dentures are the better option if you have many missing teeth and you're not a good candidate for dental implants due to other health issues.
Direct tooth restoration involves placing a filling into a prepared tooth cavity immediately. This procedure can be done in a single office visit. Your dentist chooses from a variety of filling options based on the type and location of the filling. For example, glass or resin ionomers are often used for replacements near the tooth root or other areas not subjected to heavy pressure from chewing.
Indirect tooth restoration involves customized tooth replacements in the form of crowns, onlays, or inlays. A crown covers the entire chewing surface of a tooth, an inlay lies within the cusps of the tooth, and an onlay covers and one or more cusp tip, including part of the chewing surface. An indirect tooth restoration will require more than one office visit because the inlay or onlay must be fabricated in a lab. Crowns, inlays and onlays can be made from a variety of materials. Gold is still used for some inlays, but for someone concerned about white teeth, porcelain and tooth-colored composite resins are other options.
Also, keep in mind that most dental insurance plans don't currently cover dental implants. They may be covered under your medical insurance depending on the reason for your tooth loss and whether you have other related medical conditions. Talk to your dental professional to determine the best strategy to promote your oral health.
To help prevent cavities and tooth decay, choose from our collection of Oral-B electric toothbrushes.

UC commit, Wyoming QB Evan Prater becomes Cincinnati's 1st Mr. Football since 1992
Wyoming Quarterback Evan Prater (Source: Cincinnati Enquirer, Tony Tribble)
December 4, 2019 at 3:41 PM EST - Updated December 4 at 4:37 PM
WYOMING, Ohio (Cincinnati Enquirer) - For the first time in 27 years, Ohio's Mr. Football resides in Cincinnati. Wyoming High School senior quarterback Evan Prater who was Ohio Division IV Offensive Player of the Year brings the title back to Greater Cincinnati for the first time since Norwood's Marc Edwards won in 1992, according to FOX19 NOW's media partners at the Cincinnati Enquirer.
Since then, Cincinnati has had considerable representation in state championships, but no Mr. Football winners until Wednesday's announcement.
Prater's high school football career ended last weekend with a Division IV semifinal lost to Clyde. That left his high school record as a starting quarterback at Wyoming at 40-2. Both losses came deep in the playoffs to end undefeated seasons in 2017 and this year. Last season, he led the Cowboys to the Division IV state title at 15-0 with a dominant performance in Canton.
"Doing it for the city, I really mean it. I hope that me winning (Mr. Football) brings more attention to this region of Ohio. A lot of it goes unrecognized."
Just wrapped an interview w/ @evan_prater

— Jeremy Rauch (@FOX19Jeremy) December 4, 2019
The 6-5, 190-pound dual-threat ran for 242 yards and three touchdowns and was 6-for-11 passing for 149 yards and two more scores. It was Wyoming's first state title in 41 years.
In the offseason, Prater made more local headlines when he committed to the University of Cincinnati in May. Joining him there is older brother Garyn Prater, who transferred from Ohio State. Garyn has been injured this season, but the two have the chance to play together again as they did when Evan was a freshman. Both Praters starred in football and basketball at Wyoming.
Evan Prater, who was also offered in basketball by Wright State, finished his career throwing for 5,699 yards and 72 touchdowns and ran for 4,124 yards and 73 scores. Most of that came in three seasons as he served as back-up to current Northwestern quarterback Andrew Marty his freshman year.
In addition to Marc Edwards, who went on to star at Notre Dame and played in the NFL with the Browns and Patriots, the Mr. Football trophy has been given to many accomplished players.
Robert Smith was a two-time winner who went on to Ohio State and the NFL after winning in the late 1980s. Charles Woodson won in 1994, then went to Michigan and became a rare defensive Heisman Trophy winner.
Others from Ohio State include 1995′s Andy Katzenmoyer and Maurice Clarett in 2001. Current Heisman favorite Joe Burrow of Athens won in 2014 before going to OSU, then LSU.
Prater makes it four with a UC connection. Ben Mauk of Kenton won in 2002 then went to Wake Forest and transferred to Brian Kelly's Bearcats for the 2007 season. Akise Teague won in 2010 out of Youngstown Ursuline and was briefly a Bearcat and current running back Michael Warren II won in 2016 out of Toledo Central Catholic.
Evan Prater is expected to sign with coach Luke Fickell's Bearcats Dec. 18.

He's ony been back in training a couple of days so I don't think him not playing last night is very significant. I haven't seen a lot of Fekir but from what I have seen I would prefer us to spend our money on Pulasic, though that would not happen until next summer. I think we have enough midfielders for the coming season without Fekir particularly since Shaqiri and Firmino can both play deeper and Jones is developing very nicely.
Pullisic would be a great acusistion but looks unlikey at this late stage. I've read there might be a Kieta situation with him as in we pay now and the player joins next season. We've only got one more day in this window to find out.
What I find a little worrying with Fekir is that over the last week or so Lyon have hardly been busting a gut to keep him. Why do they now seem more comfortable for him to leave? I don't know, there just seems too many questions surrounding Fekir to feel at ease with his acquisition. I personally feel that unless we have a complete injury meltdown we should be alright for midfielders now. Shaqiri coming in and looking so fit and effective has really boosted us in that department.
I too am very happy with what we have now and am very optimistic for the season ahead. I suppose if there's question marks over a players head for whatever reason maybe it's best to air on the side of caution, me being a bit of a pessimist am thinking if he goes elsewhere in the prem and rips it up we'll be kicking ourselves but sometimes those are the chances you have to take and it looks like this is one of those times.
It seems the Fekir deal breaking down was purely medical according to james pearce of the Echo and if true we may have dodged a bullet there. Would have been a great signing but i reckon we're all very happy with the squad we have regardless.
Hello everyone. Fekir not coming in is a shame, but, he failed the physical. We got XS (I'll call him Excess from now on) instead. I will not comment negatively on Excess again until he leaves or becomes a locker room problem. Promise! No fingers crossed! I'll even pinky swear... Ok maybe a tiny, wee, smidgen of an iota of criticism once in a while, but that's all!
I think the current situation at Liverpool has both a carrot and a stick for Shaqiri. The carrot is that if Shaqiri plays well on a regular basis he gets to play in a very exciting team made up of players of a similar standard to him, players that will make the most of his talents. The stick is that if Shaqiri doesn't pull his weight or causes trouble in the camp he'll find himself ostracised in the same manner as Sakho and moved on. The team is nowhere near as dependent on Shaqiri as Stoke was so I have no doubt Klopp will come down hard on him at the first sign of trouble. From what I've seen so far, though, it looks like Shaqiri seems very motivated to succeed and be a part of a successful squad. I also think he realises how lucky he is to get this opportunity and if he blows it he probably won't get another chance at this level. You can never be 100% sure how a player will react but I'll be surprised if Shaqiri implodes big time.
I recall thinking to myself when he was coming on yesterday "look at the determination on his face". He couldn't wait to get on and do his thing and for me he hasn't put a foot wrong since he joined. A great signing and i feel he's going to be a big player for us this season, delighted we have him. Just read that united wanted him also but he chose us, maureen is doing a great job over there, hahaha.
Sage you old dog, Shaqiri will be a cracking player for us mate, surely you can see that by now??????

Blog: Planning for the Future - Public Spaces and Empty buildings, Our Creative and Social Currency
It may come as a surprise that a small, project funded theatre company has shown an interest in discussing city planning, regeneration and redevelopment...
Then again, maybe it won't.
As artists and creatives, we often thrive on a seemingly negative and disused cityscape, territories of disparately unpopulated places, tasking ourselves to reimagine the seemingly unimaginable, maybe, we are actually best placed to discuss the use of public and disused space.
In 2018, 27% of City Centre Units in Newport were classed as vacant, a figure that no doubt is reflected across the UK, and is set to rise. But this isn't just a blog about empty space.
In the recent Local Planning and Development documents Newport City Council reported that there has been an increase of 9 locations across the city measured as LSOA (Lower social output Area) since the last report in 2014, with 23 areas in Newport now being placed in the top 10% of deprivation, it seems, this resulting in Newport ranking the highest percentage in the WIMD (Wales index of mass deprivation) in the whole country.
These statistics are deeply concerning and what does this mean to us as artists and social connectors who live and work in this city? What do we do with this information? What can we do? Is it our place to do something? As artists, surely it is our purpose to shine a light in the darkness and a mirror up to the world? This often weighs heavy on our shoulders.
It seems at this point we are considering 2 things. The Cities and spaces in which we live, and a regenerative overhaul of our systems that begins to allow for better cultural, social wellbeing and social purposes. The second, the glaring facts of a poverty stricken society that are still being encouraged to spend what they don't have.
When we strip this back, what we are discussing here are human values, and the potential to approach rebuilding a cultural, socio-economic infrastructure in response to a value system based on basic human needs rather than archaic planning habits built on capitalist frameworks.
Here's the disparity- electrical car charge points in cities where many families cannot put food on their tables. Million pound investments into universities when young people struggle to get a part time job, and the expectation on families to consider extortionate fees or have the time/capacity to support grant applications and loans to train for a job that may not even exist by the time the course ends. Or lack the structured postgraduate support really needed to realise their ambition or place in the city they have studied and beyond.
More big shiny buildings.
What if we got radical?
What if we looked beyond offering artists, communities, small businesses and social enterprises 'temporary space' 'temporary start up support' and offered permanent, long term, subsidised space and structured financial support, promoting multi functional space with a social and cultural purpose? and what if these were supported by co-operative strategies to allow for the long term financial success and social growth?
What if we reimagined our open city centre spaces as places to improve wellbeing, raise our social capital and that nurtured a reconnection to our public spaces?
What if, instead of trying to stick plasters over old wounds we looked at a phase of consultancy that didn't include large scale consultation firms shipped in from other places, It included the cities cultural and social organisations and individuals, grass roots voluntary committees, the ones that have continued to connect with their service users, that have gathered vital information and learning on changes to our social wellbeing, isolation and loneliness?
What if we responded to how people felt about working from home and looked at flexible models to adapt how people continued to function based on the last year? What if we could reimagine huge office blocks?
What If the planning and development departments in local authority employed a Cultural and social redevelopment planning and consultation committee, This consultation committee is made up of artists, community leads, community development workers and local authority members and is a group that honestly reflects the city that it seeks to represent, listen to and report on. This committee could be outsourced to other new and exciting redevelopments across cities and act as a people's voice for local authority.
We aren't reinventing the wheel here. There are many local authorities flying the flag for bold and brave regenerative plans with cultural, social wellbeing and ecological welfare at the core. To name a few, the recent greenfield planning in Stockton On Tees, a city, not too dissimilar to Newport:
Bulldoze the high street and build a giant park: is Stockton the future of Britain?
A radical regeneration of city centre space in Nottingham - creating open green space, wildflower meadows.
Going wild? A radical green plan for Nottingham's unloved shopping centre
The repurposing of Southsea Debenhams into an indoor market supported by the local university, where city centre entrepreneurship, trade and learning directly affect the social and economic infrastructure of a place
New indoor creative market to move into former Southsea Debenhams store
Is it impossible to consider some of these initiatives as potential outcomes for our cities in Wales? It is understandably difficult to grasp the potential economic value, however, in a podcast recorded by Mary Portas, entitled The Kindness Economy, she tackles this when discussing social capital and changing trends in high street consumerism, she explains:
"If you make places where people want to be socially, then the economic capital follows"
Newport, to us, seems to be in a perfect position to redefine itself and its identity to make bold and brave decisions, but this takes support and vision from cultural leaders and at local authority level. Newport, as the sandwich filling between two slices of bread (Bristol and Cardiff), has the ability to define its identity as progressive, responsive and adventurous. With its history of democratic anarchism and cultural infrastructure of art, heritage, design, industry and music - Newport is a multi cultural city of creative and community agitators ready to reimagine. If we were only offered the agency to do so.
But this is likely just an example of many cities that could adopt drastic regeneration plans, and some it seems already are.
There is also currently an unspoken, holistic methodology that seems needed in order to repair and rebuild our human and social capital, that provides a gentle sanitised handshake between us and society once again.
We must create a city environment that feels safe, not through signage and red tape (physical and metaphorical) but through calm, progressive, expansive reimagining of planning and process that promotes social cohesion and reconnection. What if we removed metal fencing and offered people a place to share a thought, Attach a note for someone to find, fencing switched to planters, advertising boards into living walls. Making spaces for social reconnection and contemplation.
All of this is to better understand that alongside a focus on basic human needs, we must also adopt a method of repurposing. Of creating spaces, places and services to truly listen, offer reflection, respond, and to discuss, to reconnect us all with life outside our homes.
This may not be the creation of space that has a specific purpose, maybe they have a few, but the concept is that the spaces are open, adaptable and governed by a series of social aims and objectives, and individuals intent on delivering them. These may not be indoors. With enough open, bright, free space to allow people to negotiate themselves and their potential post pandemic social anxieties and Covid safety. In order to continue we must extend our focus to working out of our buildings, and initially connect these to places where people feel safe to be. These are streets, doorsteps, parks and places that promote agendaless social infrastructure.
This isn't just us talking about identifying and potentially making nice spaces for people to eat a sandwich. This is social, cultural, economic and environmental benefit.
This is often about raising social capital, truly listening and responding to need and understanding that by imparting a sense of trust and ownership in the people of the city, in relation to the spaces around themselves, adopting new means of consultation instead of forms, 140 page documents and external consultancy firms, we have to listen to the current statistics and the people at ground level, These are the people receiving calls in the night from young people on the verge of a suicide attempt, the homeless handed £2,500 fines by PCSO's for begging and homeless buskers asked to pay a £60 busking license fee, The engagement workers who have developed their practice to include online delivery just to keep talking together, the teachers, parents and students pushed to the edge of their capacities when systems fail them.
People will come out of the last year changed forever. but change can be good, and change can mean action. For most of us the pandemic has meant a greater social connection to our immediate environments, For some it has offered the ability to slow down, take stock, for others it has meant grief, loss and for most isolation and fear but alongside this have been beautiful examples of togetherness, an increased sense of civic pride, window displays, shopping trips, love and care - but this needs to recognised and measured now.
If housing associations and city planning departments seek to better understand the effect that their decisions have on the impact and behaviour of society then they must read Palaces for the People by Erik Klinenberg. A book that enters into a epidemiological investigation of city planning in direct relationship to human behaviour. Klinenberg compares multiple spaces created to promote social infrastructure and mirrored housing complexes with small differences in design but immeasurable impacts on human and social capital. It cites broken windows as a physical representation of lack of civic pride, and allows us to imagine the impact that a series of disused spaces has on its urban landscape in direct relation to raised rates of crime and antisocial behaviour. You see one broken window, why not break another? But how do we measure the need for more social housing alongside the takeover of cultural and retail space? We need a balance. Because without the spaces that encourage social cohesion we send ourselves further into a segregated society of locked doors and closed minds. The pandemic has allowed us to see what happens when we lack social interaction and we are yet to fully measure the long term impact of this social isolation and separation.
This social impact to space is reflected in the city planning and development of negative space such as underpasses and alleyways. These spaces can be redeveloped and often are by artists, but are we really reimagining their functionality? And the need to discuss the socio-economic issues of the areas that often surround them? These commissions regularly come packaged neatly in hours to engage with local communities, but is the support and funds ever really given to invest the time needed to consult, measure and implement creative solutions together? When will we stop seeing community engagement and development as a part time, tick box exercise? And as a vital part of everything we do. This is about co-creation and agency.
It also isn't an impossible task to consider initiatives that engage with communities to brighten up their own neighbourhoods. To enter into a new relationship with the world outside their front doors, that responds to the changes as a result of the pandemic, that offers them agency, ownership and creative means to redevelop and reshape their spaces, to make them safe and supported. The likelihood is of course, that these areas lack the social capital and agency needed to articulate the re-imagination of their environments, because who has been there to listen to them? Who even asked? Also how do you encourage people to realise their creative potential? It could be suggested that a holistic and long term approach to public engagement is required. It has been proven that, positive action creative social action will often counteract negative and anti social behaviour, This isn't the long arm of the law, or a 'no cycle' sign, the removal of benches or a private security guard, because when people are offered agency and the ability to truly feel a sense of creative civic and local pride the spaces are maintained.
This is really about understanding social and cultural behaviours. Why do young people hang out for hours in McDonald's? because its likely their continued custom is welcome by the staff but for them that space is safe, its familiar, its open enough to promote social gathering which is likely encouraged, therefore in this space they have a raised social capital, it also has free wifi and cheap food. Why do young people hang out in the streets? Because adults voted for a government that stripped social services bare of the staff, tools and funds needed to keep youth centres and provisions open... but that's another blog.
In a recent article in the Telegraph entitled 'Welcome to Operation Rebuild Britain' Simon Heffer writes that post WW2 the government appointed a Minister of reconstruction - "to oversee the physical and psychological rebuilding of society" . Is it too revolutionary to consider that local authorities could now do the same?

As a company of artists we have always worked hard to develop close and lasting relationships with people and places. Often looking at our artistry as the vehicle for deeper social connection to a location or a community. For us, it has always started with a location, indoors or out and the people that directly and indirectly inhabit it and the socioeconomic factors that surround it. A typical process for us takes a minimum of 3 years, from conception to delivery and either side of the 'show' in whatever form that takes, is a lengthy process of identifying with local partner organisations and rooting ourselves in the temporary world, listening to people, with the understanding that we can't always stay, and we can't solve everything, we often need to access services that can help and that our work may well be at the very start of a journey or at least a conversation.
This journey never starts with building more buildings, rather repurposing and reimagining what's already there and is often the celebration of human value, connection and telling great stories. Because if we aren't making time and space for each other then what are we doing? If we arent working harder to build social cohesion in or out of publicly funded buildings then all those spaces will ever represent for many is privilege and elitism.
We remain optimistic that we're at a point where these things HAVE to change, but with the nagging doubt based on recent conversations that we have a long way to go before they really do.
In the meantime it's important to focus on the good examples, hold the uncomfortable conversations, listen to those around us and have a heart.

Wonderful article. Thank you so much for putting so many thoughts into a cohesive, and inspiring creation.
My own issue is the comment on "Broken Windows" theory. Yet to read the book you recommended, but Broken Windows has been criticized for being a misdirection away from issues that bring about the material broken windows in question. Well-criticized by Rutger Bregman.

JURGEN KLINSMANN TAKES OVER AT HERTHA BERLIN
Posted on January 28, 2020 by index
Former Hertha Berlin coach Ante Covic led the club to five straight matches without a win and within that number, four defeats. The 4-nil loss against Augsburg forced Hertha to send Covic packing and saw Klinsmann leave the club's advisory board to take over from where Covic stopped.
There was a time when Jurgen Klinsmann was the apple of German football's eyes. Haven coached Bayern Munich, the German national team plus the United States of America, the former Tottenham forward has had his own fair share of moments under the spotlight.
Since taking over Hertha, the Old Lady lost by a small margin to Borussia Dortmund while they drew with Eintracht Frankfurt in the next game and has now led to a lot of optimism being renewed at the club.
After leaving the Bundesliga over a decade ago, his next match against Freiburg will be another proof of whether or not he has what it takes.
It is not as if he has to take Hertha to the Bundesliga trophy like he did with Bayern Munich but a change of fortune will very much be appreciated by the Old Lady and her fans.
The clashes against Dortmund and Frankfurt is still miles away from proving whether or not Klinsmann is for real. It remains to be seen if the players didn't just respond to the adrenaline rush of having another manager in the dressing room instead of Covic.
Even Klinsmann's time with the German national side which spanned almost a decade was seen as one of the most successful, at the time, especially when they hosted the World Cup in 2006. The irony was however not lost on how his then assistant manager took over and ended up making Klinsmann's achievement look like a joke.

Answer: Last week, we showed you a ceiling light fixture that contained dead bugs and asked you if you thought it was something that was covered under the warranty.
To help us out with the answer, we asked Karin, a Warranty Services Representative at Tarion.
Karin: "What we do in these instances is determine if there is a defect in workmanship or materials that is causing the situation to occur. For example, are the bugs getting in because the ceiling fixture is broken, or not properly installed? When we visited the home to inspect the fixture, there was no indication of either.
Thank you for your feedback! Every time you let us know what you think, other homeowners are empowered. Stay tuned for our next "Warranted or Not Warranted" story.

MONTALCINO – Unique in the Wine World
by Athena | Feb 13, 2018 | Vineyard | 0 comments
Ever wonder why Montalcino's wines are world famous and why Sangiovese that's grown here is unlike any where else? Kerin O'Keefe, in her book Brunello di Montalcino, observes that: "Montalcino's growing zone boasts one of the most complex and varied soil profiles in the world."Millions of years ago, nearly all of Italy was underwater and sea levels were as much as 25 meters higher than today. Tuscany was covered by a warm and shallow sea, with Montalcino emerging as an island. Driving through the landscape of the township, it is easy to imagine, if one has some experience in scuba diving, the underwater contours of the ancient seas.The hill of the town itself was formed in various geological eras. During the last 2-5 million years, the oceans receded and returned several times, creating a unique and varied soil mix throughout the area – no other wine region in the world has soils like this. In the highest parts of the zone closest to the town where the land first emerged from sea, there are alberese soils, composed of a mixture of stone, sand and limestone. In the lowest parts of the denomination, traveling southwest towards Grosseto and the sea, the soils are the most recent, composed of clay, marine and alluvial deposits and some galestro (schist: clay/shale mix of soil). In the middle elevations, the effects of the movements of the ancient seas are most apparent. Researcher Edoardo Costantini, explains the complexity of these soils: "Usually, land protruded from the sea when the oceans receded, and that was it – end of story. What era the oceans receded in helps define a given area's geological and pedological composition. But in Montalcino, our research demonstrates that the oceans came back again and reclaimed the newly uncovered land masses up to the middle altitudes, roughly 300 to 350 meters above sea level before receding yet again, and that this phenomenon repeated itself several times."In the course of these movements of the seas, huge landslide,s that can hardly be imagined now, displaced millions of tons of soil from the highest parts of the hill to the mid-range altitudes. The result was the combination of the oldest soils, mixed in with marine sediments, which is only found in the middle areas of the Montalcino mountain. The lowest altitudes which contained the sea bottom did not benefit from this colossal mix of complex soils caused by the massive slides. In fact, the Montalcino vine cultivation area has significantly stonier soil than much of the rest of the growing areas in Tuscany.
The range of soils in the denomination is considerable and neighboring plots can differ widely. In Castelnuovo dell'Abate, one producer has adjoining vineyards that harvest a week apart due only to the soil differences. Many producers harvest and vinify their plots separately to keep these grapes from different soils apart. One large estate, has documented 29 different samples on its property in the southwest of the growing zone. It is one of the reasons that sub-zones can be a complicated project when one producer can have a considerable variety of soils in just a small area of a few hectares. The soil composition at certain altitudes can make a wine-changing difference. The warm ancient seas contained a plethora of marine life that still leaves many traces today, adding to the complexity of the soils. In fact, in 2007, a Pliocene era whale skeleton dating back five million years was unearthed in vineyards located in the southwest after the nearby discovery of fossilized shark teeth. On the north side of Montalcino on the hill of Montosoli, one family has an entire collection of marine fossils discovered in their vineyards on display in their tasting room for visitors to see to underscore the importance of the soils on this particular site. But it is the oldest soils which give the magical combination necessary to grow great Sangiovese – thin soil to keep the yield low and restrain the natural exuberance of the vine, rocky to provide good drainage and a high mineral content to give depth and complexity. Terralsole is located just a few kilometers south of the town of Montalcino, on the road to Castelnuovo dell'Abate. The areas here have the oldest and complex soils, making them most suitable for growing Sangiovese.. Altitudes range from 350-550 meters above sea level, giving the wines a relatively high acidity which is a key component for longevity. While soils of this age are usually quite poor, here they have a very high mineral content, lending a complexity to the palate. The diurnal differences in temperature promote a slow ripening of the grapes which is essential for developing all the scents on the nose. In exceptionally hot years, like 2003 and 2017, the cooler temperatures of the higher altitudes keep the wines fresh. Try a few of Terralsole's single vineyard Brunellos to see the difference that Montalcino's soils might make in the bottle and on your palate.

Q: Unable to access Secure Element on Samsungs S4 and S5 with 4.4.2+ I've been working on an app that uses Secure Element Evaluation Kit (SEEK) and the SIM card's Secure Element to store encryption keys and does actual encryption of sensitive data.
So, I've been testing it on various phones/Android versions and found out something interesting. The application suddenly fails when ran on any Samsung with Android 4.4.2+ with the following exception: java.lang.SecurityException: Access Control Enforcer: access denied: could not open channel.
Here's a list of phones/Android version and tests:
LG G2 – Android 4.3 – OK
HTC One Max – Android 5.0.2  - OK
Samsung Galaxy S3 – Android 4.3 – OK
Samsung Galaxy S4 – Android 4.2.2 – OK
Samsung Galaxy S4 – Android 4.4.2 – NOT OK
Samsung Galaxy S5 – Android 4.4.2 – NOT OK
Samsung Galaxy S5 – Android 5.0.2 – NOT OK
Could it be a SIM card problem? Our manufacturer has had no prior experience with such matters (the need to access SE from Java code in Android application).

A: Check SE related application configuration on all devices: policies in *.te files
within the /device/manufacturer/device-name/sepolicy directory and BOARD_SEPOLICY variables.
Check trusted credentals installed on device.
Does it work with OS higher than 5.0.2 ?

Could you provide more detail? In the latest version, when I try IntelliPrompt on what you wrote, I can access everything fine.
It does not work in you online demo - not sure if that is the latest or not.
Try the same thing in Visual Studio and you will see the same four items and the Property TestSubClass.
Also, every time I attempt to initialize a variable with the New operator it replaces it with NewsStypleUirParser, very annoying!
We will add the 'New' keyword to the type completion list. That will help with the other issue.

This Man Memorized a 60,000-Word Poem Using Deep Encoding
By Lois Parshley
Of man's first disobedience, and the fruit of that forbidden tree," John Basinger said aloud to himself, as he walked on a treadmill. "Of man's first disobedience…" In 1992, at the age of 58, Basinger decided to memorize Paradise Lost, John Milton's epic poem, as a form of mental activity while he was working out at the gym. An actor, he'd memorized shorter poems before, and he wanted to see how much of the epic he could remember. "As I finished each book," he wrote, "I began to perform it and keep it alive in repertory while committing the next to memory."

The 12 books of Paradise Lost contain over 60,000 words; it took Basinger about 3,000 hours to learn them by rote. He did so by reciting the piece, line-by-line out loud, for about an hour a day for nine years. When he memorized all 12 books, in 2001, Basinger performed the masterpiece in a live recital that lasted three days. Since then, he's performed smaller sections for various audiences, eventually attracting the attention of John Seamon, a psychologist at Wesleyan University, in Connecticut. In 2008, "He recited for an hour in the Wesleyan library," says Seamon. "He'd given out copies of Milton's book so we could follow along. At the end of the talk I introduced myself and said 'I'd love to study your memory.'" Basinger agreed, and so Seamon devised a test.
Then 74, Basinger came into the lab to perform a series of cued recall tests. Scientists read two successive lines from each of the poem's 12 books and then asked Basinger to recall the next 10 lines. The results, published in Memory in 2010, were surprising: Despite the amount of elapsed time since his memorization process, Basinger's recall was, overall, word-perfect 88 percent of the time. When he was prompted with lines that opened one of the 12 books, his accuracy increased to 98 percent.
Seamon wondered how he might explain this performance, and realized deliberate practice theory could be useful. Although it was "formulated to account for elite performance in chess, music, and sports, it provides a reasonable basis for interpreting JB's procedure for memorising Paradise Lost," says Seamon. "He too, in daily short sessions, devoted thousands of hours of study over a period of years to achieve his mastery of Milton." But Basinger didn't just remember the words; it would be a mistake, says Seamon, to interpret Basinger's performance as "simply a remarkable demonstration of brute force, rote memorisation."
In order to memorize the epic poem, he spent a lot of time repeatedly analyzing its meaning and structure. Acting researchers emphasize this strategy, Seamon notes: "Deep encoding requires actors to attend to the exact wording of lines, and it is the focus on exact wording to gain an understanding of the characters that yields verbatim memory, instead of merely the retention of gist."
Deep encoding involves making "complex semantic judgments" during a given task, as opposed to "shallow" encoding, which typically consists of just perceptual judgments—like determining the color or size of words—that "result in significantly poorer memory performance," say David Thomson, a psychologist at the University of Waterloo, and colleagues. Actors like Basinger use deep encoding to give "honest, spontaneous performances, ones that focus on communicating the meanings underlying the literal words," according to psychologists Helga and Tony Noice. "Indeed, when actors do mention memory," they write, "it is usually within the context of forgetting the lines until they are needed to communicate the feeling of the moment." Basinger, Seamon says, "really got into the story, what Milton was trying to convey." Noice and Noice suggest that this would aid his recall: "Bodily action and emotional response, in addition to semantic analysis, can enhance human memory."
Pandemonium: the capital of Hell in "Paradise Lost."John Martin (1841)
The books describe the Biblical story of the fall of man—the temptation of Eve by Satan then her and Adam's expulsion from the Garden of Eden—as well as the prior civil war between God and the rebellious angels, led by Satan. Milton's Paradise Lost, said the 18th century writer and critic Samuel Johnson, demonstrates "his peculiar power to astonish"—especially in his portrayal of Satan as a heroic figure. "There is much to be gained from an aesthetic point of view by making evil characters complex, glamorous, and persuasive, and to do so without changing what they are," says Gordon Teskey, an English professor at Harvard. "The Greeks taught Milton to make a character majestic in evil without diminishing the evil of evil." (Milton's purpose, he writes in Book I, is to "justify the ways of God to men.") "During the incessant repetition of Milton's words, I really began to listen to them," says Basinger, "and every now and then as the whole poem began to take shape in my mind, an insight would come, an understanding, a delicious possibility."
Nothing in Basinger's tests suggested that his memory was otherwise irregular or exceptional. "His memory for everyday tasks appears entirely normal for someone his age," Seamon says. "He still forgets where he puts his keys." For those of us who struggle to remember to-do lists, it's encouraging to know: "Our findings are in agreement with other research on world-class memory performers," Seamon says, "which indicates that exceptional memorizers are made, not born."
For his part, Basinger says his years of effort have let him explore Paradise Lost as if it were a physical space. "As a cathedral I carry around in my mind," he says, "a place that I can enter and walk around at will."

MACCLESFIELD is the only town outside the south to make the top ten in a survey of UK pay.
On average, Maxonians earn £34,500 – just £200 less than Londoners, and ten thousand more than residents in neighbouring Stockport.
The town is sixth out of 100 ranked towns and cities. Top is St Albans, where well-heeled workers bring home £43,500. In fifth place is London, behind (in descending order) Wokingham, Guildford, Windsor and St Albans.
The survey, released by chartered accountants UHY Hacker Young, and based on HM Revenue and Customs data, covers the 2006-7 tax year and so pre-dates the recession.
Peter Howard, Jobcentre Plus Macclesfield manager, said: "These figures show it is not all doom and gloom in the local jobs market. There are still around 759 unfilled vacancies in Macclesfield including many professional jobs."
Residents in Macclesfield earn over ten thousand more than the average UK wage (£24,292), according to the stats.
Mancunians fall below the average, at just £20,300 (in 76th place), with Hull rock bottom on £17,300.
In the battle between Cheshires East and West, Chester comes out second best on £28,800 (13th place overall).
Cheshire East council leader Wesley Fitzgerald said: "This isn't a surprise. The presence of AstraZeneca adds enormously to this and Prestbury will skew the figures. But the recession is no respecter of business size and even larger businesses are now feeling the pinch."
Of Macclesfield's £34,500 average, £7,540 went straight to the taxman in income tax.

Covid booster vaccine side effects: The most common symptoms from the third jab and how long they last
Like the first round of Covid vaccines, side effects from the booster jab can vary from person to person
By Georgina Littlejohn
October 7, 2021 10:52 am(Updated 10:53 am)
Almost a year after the first coronavirus vaccines were administered, people in that first wave of inoculations are being recalled for their booster jab.
The eligible groups include those most at risk from Covid-19, broadly following the original priority groups one to nine from the initial roll-out. Recipients must have had a second dose of a vaccine at least 6 months ago.
But does the booster jab have any side effects and are they different to the first injections? Here's everything you need to know.
Who can get a Covid booster jab? Vaccine priority groups explained and when you can get a third shot
Who is eligible for the booster jabs at the moment?
The following groups should be invited for the Covid booster jab:
People aged 50 and over
People who live and work in care homes
Frontline health and social care workers
People aged 16 and over with a health condition that puts them at high risk of getting seriously ill from COVID-19
Carers aged 16 and over
People aged 16 and over who live with someone who is more likely to get infections (such as someone who has HIV, has had a transplant or is having certain treatments for cancer, lupus or rheumatoid arthritis)
Women who are pregnant and in one of the eligible groups can also get a booster dose.
Covid booster jabs: Boris Johnson banking on third vaccine to stave off winter surge crisis in NHS
What vaccine is being offered?
The Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine or Moderna vaccine is being offered to most people, which means they might receive a different one to their first two.
Some people may be offered a booster dose of the Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccine if they cannot have the Pfizer/BioNTech or Moderna vaccine.
Are there any side effects?
Like the first and second rounds of vaccines, side effects can vary from person to person.
The most common ones reported are muscle and joint pain in the arm it was injected into, a fever and chills, fatigue and a slight headache.
However, the NHS advises that "most side effects are mild and should not last longer than a week".
It says that if recipients begin to suffer from a high temperature or feel hot in the days after your vaccination you can take paracetamol or other painkillers when necessary, and should call 111 if symptoms worsen.
You should not suffer from a high temperature that lasts for more than two days, a new continuous cough or differences in your senses of smell or taste from getting your booster jab.
If you begin to experience these symptoms, you might have Covid-19 and are advised to stay at home and get a test.
The NHS advises that you cannot catch coronavirus from having your booster vaccine, but may have caught it just before or after getting the jab.

Fort Peck encompasses two separate nations, the Assiniboine and Sioux. The Sioux are famous for the Battle of Little Bighorn in 1876, partially led by the famous Lakota Sioux Sitting Bull, or in Lakota, Tatanka Yotanka. After relocation to Fort Peck, the nations suffered great trauma from lack of resources and re allotment of land to non-Indians who hunted the Bison to near extinction. The Boarding School era from 1877 to 1920 also caused a great deal of trauma, in which children were forced from their homes to American boarding schools that stripped them of their culture and forced them to speak English. Let's also not forget the introduction of alcohol, also known as "fire water".
The Tribal Government has control over most activities on the reservation, which can be good and bad. They are the largest employer on the reservation, providing economic opportunity to tribal members, but things in government move slowly. Fort Peck Tribes Health Promotion Disease Prevention, who I am partnering with through No Kid Hungry, is under the Tribal Government. In 2012, 63 American Bison were transferred from Yellowstone National Park to a preserve north of Poplar. 136 more were transferred in 2014.
Poplar has a population of 810 as of 2010. I see lots of wild dogs, and rescued a puppy who is still learning that nipping is not okay. The kids in my neighborhood love her and she loves them. I love them too. I feel extremely welcomed and supported by the community, and I'm making an effort as an outsider to listen more than I speak.
I arrived at the end of Pow Wow season, which includes weekends of dancing and elaborate regalia. Some people keep their dress strictly traditional, but I saw some kids with Frozen and Captain America themed clothing. I was invited to a sweat, which I learned is a great honor. I drove down what I didn't realize was a road off of the main highway down to the Missouri River, where I was greeted by my new friend that had invited me. I thought this had been a trick because the area was so secluded and the area was fenced off and had to be unlocked. I learned that the fences were to keep the cows out.
After some more off road driving, we arrived at the river, where about 12 people were waiting outside a small dome-shaped lodge that looked like it could only fit 6 comfortably. They told me they would go easy on me as to not scare me off. In an Assiniboine sweat, the men enter first and smoke the pipe, and the women enter when they are finished. We entered the lodge and passed around sage to smudge ourselves (I learned this means wafting the smoke around my body as a cleansing method). Then they loaded hot rocks into a pit in the center of the lodge and closed the door. My heart began racing and my skin was burning from the heat, but they hadn't even started yet. We prayed and one man began pouring hot water on the rocks, and I didn't think a room could be so hot. I tried to focus on my breathing and tune out the singing and praying in Dakota around me, but it was so hot and my clothes were soaked in sweat less than a minute in. I started focusing on the voices of the people around me.
Maybe it was the heat that made me feel lightheaded, but I definitely felt something. I am not a spiritual person, but something was present that day. I felt deeply connected to and grateful to the friends around me that had welcomed me and taken care of me during my first sweat. Despite my soaked clothing, I felt cleaner than I had in a long time.
Last week, I attended a Food Sovereignty conference in Billings, where I met members of other tribes in Montana, particularly Blackfeet and Crow. I learned about the history of Native food and its medicinal qualities, as well as the near-poisonous effects of many Western processed foods, such as milk, on Native communities. We learned about trauma but we also learned about how to heal.
Trauma and healing have been major themes in most of my interactions with the tribes. There is a recognition of the past and the devastating impact of alcohol and drug use. There is also hope - hope that this trauma can still be overcome through reconnection to the culture of a nation that has not completely lost its strength. Fort Peck is full of good people ready to make positive change.
