It's tough for films like 'Beautiful Boy' and 'Ben Is Back' to portray addiction in its full scope, experts say
By Lewis Beale
Nov. 9, 2018 4:30 AM PT
There's a scene in the new film "Beautiful Boy" in which Steve Carell, playing a father checking his crystal meth-addicted son (Timothée Chalamet) into what looks like an expensive rehab facility, whips out a credit card to pay for the boy's stay. It's one of many moments when you realize that, at least in the movies, the ways in which affluent families and their less financially flush counterparts deal with drug addiction is worlds apart.
"Depictions of drug use among poorer people often revolve around chaotic, often violent street drug scenes involving heroin, crack and crystal meth," says Harry Shapiro, author of "Shooting Stars: Drugs, Hollywood and the Movies."
"Among poorer families, drug use is often more closely linked to poverty and deprivation, maybe also an income stream. And, of course, lack of access to treatment, usually presented as a very expensive rehab. With higher income groups," he says, "the back story, where all material needs are taken care of, tends to do more with family dysfunction, divorce, emotional distance, kids for whatever reason feel they are out of place."
"In most movies, addiction is more often a trope where the audience is meant to understand the addiction as the social cues around the person," adds Emily Feinstein of the Center on Addiction, a New York-based nonprofit. "That relates to the drug and the class and race of the group. So you have the shocking narrative, in a movie like 'Traffic' (the 2000 film in which judge Michael Douglas' daughter is freebasing cocaine) — how could people with money be reduced to this? How could someone with all this potential do all this crazy stuff?"
Movies about drugs tend to fall into three very broad categories: the crime flick, a la "The French Connection"; the "drugs in the ghetto" film, often interchangeable with crime movies, such as 1991's "New Jack City" and 2007's "American Gangster," and the "people with money doing a lot of cocaine" drama, which ranges from "The Wolf of Wall Street" to "Clean and Sober" (a 1988 production with Michael Keaton as a cocaine-addicted real estate salesman) to "Traffic."
Luke Davies, who wrote the "Beautiful Boy" screenplay and says he is a former heroin user, says in an email interview that "addiction is like a cyclone, it doesn't play favorites. Money means there are moments when you can maneuver a problem in a certain direction, for a while. So [in 'Beautiful Boy' entering rehab] it's less chaos for a moment. But those respites don't make it any less horrific when the cyclone bears down again."
No matter what the social class, most experts think the movies do a pretty poor job in portraying drug usage and addiction. One problem is time, says Shapiro. "Most films are no longer than two hours, and the film needs a central character. You only have time to see the outcomes of addiction, the dramatic injecting scenes and so on, and the narrative telescopes down to one of individual pathology."
"Most movies fail to portray addiction as a disease," adds Feinstein. "This is a disease that changes your brain, your personality. And you don't often see relapse in the movies, and relapse is part of recovery."
Davies, an Australian who wrote "Candy," a 2006 film in which two young middle-class lovers (Heath Ledger and Abbie Cornish) descend into heroin addiction, says most drug films consist of a "lineage of deeply embedded clichés. The 'other' is untrustworthy — foreigners, people of color, working-class lowlifes and the uneducated. The middle-class kids are just having a 'rough trot.' "
In fact, if "Beautiful Boy" is any indication, middle-class and affluent kids seem to have a lot of advantages. Carell, who plays a very successful writer (the film is based on a true story), can not only afford to pay for rehab, but can fly across the country to take care of his son after he overdoses, and has the education and wherewithal to research addiction on the internet. Plus there is always a place to come home to (the same situation applies in "Ben Is Back," opening in December, in which recovering addict Lucas Hedges returns to his middle-class home).
Overall, when films about addiction get it right, says Feinstein, "They are good at showing you how bad it can get, how it can damage your relationships, you can lose your job, lose your life."
Good depictions, adds Davies, also show "the clash between a character's good intentions and their compulsions."
And yet, says Shapiro, "addiction is a highly complex physical/psychological/environmental social phenomenon, which films will always struggle to adequately explain, so we are often left with oversimplistic depictions."
Which doesn't mean the movies themselves as stories aren't moving and compelling.

COLONIE, N.Y. (AP) — An upstate New York airport and its computer management provider were attacked by ransomware over Christmas, officials said.
Officials at the Albany County Airport Authority announced Thursday that the attack came to light after Schenectady-based LogicalNet reported its own management services network had been breached. From there, the virus spread to the authority's servers and backup servers, encrypting files.
The attack, which was discovered Christmas Day, encrypted administrative files like budget spreadsheets, but no personal or financial traveler data was accessed, airport officials said, nor did it affect operations at Albany International Airport, which the authority oversees, or Transportation Security Administration or airline computers.
The airport authority's insurance carrier authorized payment of the bitcoin ransom, which officials would say only was "under six figures," the Times Union reported. It was paid Dec. 30, and two hours later an encryption key was received, allowing the airport authority to restore its data.
The contract with LogicalNet, which the authority has since terminated, included providing security for the airport's system, airport authority CEO Philip Calderone said.
LogicalNet did not respond to request for comment from the Times Union.
The New York State Cyber Command and the FBI were notified of the attack, officials said, and assistance was enlisted from another computer systems contractor.
The same strain of ransomware, Sodinokibi, was used in an attack discovered on New Year's Eve against London-based Travelex, a worldwide foreign exchange services provider.

Kağıt (türkisch kâğıt = deutsch Papier) ist ein türkisches Filmdrama des Regisseurs Sinan Çetin aus dem Jahr 2011.

Handlung
Der Film beginnt mit einer skurril anmutenden Szene: Emrah (Öner Erkan) führt die ahnungslose Müzeyyen (Asuman Dabak) in seine spärlich eingerichtete Garagenwohnung, deren Wände vollständig mit Papierseiten ausgekleidet sind. Damit Müzeyyen ein Bad nehmen kann, verlässt Emrah seine Unterkunft für eine Weile. Als er zurückkehrt, erklärt er Müzeyyen, dass er ihr den Prozess machen werde. Er verabreicht ihr ein Schlafmittel, danach blendet der Film ins Jahr 1977 zurück.

1977 in İstanbul: Der junge Regisseur Emrah Uygar benötigt Geld für sein Erstlingswerk, einen Film über die türkische Arbeiterbewegung. Er findet zwar einen Filmverleiher, der das Werk finanzieren und verlegen will, und nimmt dafür auch umfangreiche Änderungen am Drehbuch vor. Damit der Film jedoch in die Kinos kommen kann, benötigt Emrah eine schriftliche Genehmigung vom Staat. Am 1. Mai, dem Tag des Massakers auf dem Taksim-Platz mit vielen Toten, reist er zur Zensurbehörde nach Ankara. Dort lehnt die Sachbearbeiterin Müzeyyen Gürkaya seinen Antrag ab, weil Emrah bereits mit den Dreharbeiten begonnen hat.

Emrah lässt sich von dem negativen Bescheid nicht beirren und arbeitet weiter an seinem Film. Hierfür wendet er die 90.000 Lira auf, die sein Vater (Ahmet Mekin) als Hypothek auf das Haus aufgenommen hat, um Emrah die Eröffnung einer Apotheke zu ermöglichen. Emrah kann seinen Film fertigstellen und reist wiederholt zur Behörde, jedoch beharrt Müzeyyen auf den Buchstaben des Gesetzes, verweigert die Genehmigung und lässt sich auch von Emrahs Mutter (Ayşen Gruda) nicht umstimmen. Müzeyyen setzt ihrerseits ein Schreiben an die Polizeibehörden auf, in dem sie Emrah republikfeindlicher Umtriebe bezichtigt.

Da Emrah seinen Film nicht veröffentlichen darf und die Familie das Geld für die Hypothek nicht zurückzahlen kann, wird das Haus samt den darin befindlichen Gegenständen gepfändet. Emrahs Vater nimmt sich während der Räumung das Leben. Während die Familie Abschied nimmt, rücken Polizeibeamte an und nehmen Emrah fest. Er wird verhört und zu einer Gefängnisstrafe verurteilt. Nach vier Jahren Haft (und einem Jahr nach dem Militärputsch) kommt Emrah wieder frei. Müzeyyen wurde inzwischen befördert. Emrah nimmt eine Stelle als Hausmeister in ihrem Bürogebäude an, ohne dass Müzeyyen ihn wiedererkennt. Emrah entwendet Stempel aus dem Büro, fälscht Dokumente und schwärzt Müzeyyen bei den Behörden an. Sie verliert ihre Stelle und ihre Wohnung. Es gelingt ihm, sie in seine Wohnung zu locken, wodurch der Film wieder zur Anfangsszene zurückkehrt.

Emrah legt eine Schlinge um Müzeyyens Hals und konfrontiert sie, als sie wieder wach ist, mit der Situation, in die sie ihn durch ihr gesetzeskonformes Verhalten gebracht hat. Müzeyyen zeigt keine Reue und ist bereit, die bevorstehende Erhängung hinzunehmen. Emrah zündet die Drehbuchseiten an, mit denen er die Wände ausgekleidet hat. Während die Wohnung in Flammen aufgeht, lässt er Müzeyyen frei, bleibt jedoch selbst drinnen und schließt sich ein.

Botschaft des Films
Im Abspann wird eine Verbindung hergestellt zwischen Emrahs Schicksal und den 268 Millionen Menschen, die im 20. Jahrhundert durch von Regierungen ausgestellte "legale Papiere" getötet wurden. Namentlich genannt werden Deniz Gezmiş, Yusuf Arslan und Hüseyin İnan (1972), Erdal Eren (1980), Adnan Menderes (1961), Nazım Hikmet (1938 inhaftiert), Uğur Mumcu (1993), Said Nursi (1960), Abdi İpekçi (1979), Hrant Dink (2007), Gaffar Okkan (2001), Musa Anter (1992), İsmail Besikci (1971), Malcolm X (1965), Nicola Sacco und Bartolomeo Vanzetti (1927), Martin Luther King (1968), Ethel Rosenberg und Julius Rosenberg (1953), Mascha Bruskina und Wolodija Schtscherbazewitsch (1941). Hinzu kommen zahlreiche Bilder von Gräueltaten an Menschen, darunter das Tian'anmen-Massaker, der Dersim-Aufstand, der Holocaust, die Taten der türkischen Unabhängigkeitsgerichte, der Giftgasangriff auf Halabdscha, der Völkermord in Ruanda, der Vietnamkrieg und die Verbrechen der Roten Khmer. Der Völkermord an den Armeniern bleibt unerwähnt.

Filmfehler
Im Film wird in vielen Szenen die Schriftart Arial verwendet. Diese wurde erst 1982 entworfen und existierte zu der Zeit, in der der Film spielt, noch nicht.

Premiere
"Kağıt" wurde im Oktober 2010 beim 47. Antalya Altın Portakal Film Festivali uraufgeführt.

A prestigious university has recently implemented a consolidation strategy that will require it to centralize their student records. In order to move forward, the local university will need to develop a data model that will retain student records and perform various data extract transform and load (ETL) processes. Imagine that you have been hired as a database consultant to assist in the development of a data design strategy for the student records.
Faculty groups are divided by core competencies that the university offers. For example, there are groups such as the Art Faculty, Computer Technology Faculty, Language Faculty, and Science Faculty. Each faculty member has an assigned Dean and is designated to teach at one particular campus and school. They are able to teach as many courses as required.
Courses are categorized by course code and title. Certain courses have prerequisites and the university has asked for this to be cataloged as well.
There are various schools within each campus. For example, the Los Angeles campus holds the following schools: School of Science, School of Law, and School of Computer Technology. Additionally, each school offers different professional study programs such as Forensic Computer Science, Marine Biology, Business Management, and Civil Engineering to name a few.
The study path for students requires that they be enrolled in a specific professional study program. The professional study program requires the students to complete a specific set of core courses. The university also requires that an online grade book be available. The online grade book should show grades awarded to students for specific courses and the term they completed the course.
The university identifies each student by his or her name, date of birth, social, and professional study program.
Provide an Entity Relationship Model (ERM) that will describe the data structure that will store all data elements. Note: The graphically depicted solution is not included in the required page length.
Describe any assumptions or limitations for each relationship. For example, professors are able to teach more than one course or students can only be enrolled in one program.
Create the primary key and foreign keys using a UML Class diagram for each table.
Suggest at least four (4) types of business intelligence reports that could help the university in course management, student enrollment, or historical tracking. Support your answer by providing specific business functions that these reports could assist executives of the university.
As an alternative for development of the database, you are considering outsourcing the functions above. Research the Internet and other media sources for vendors who develop registrar and school management database systems.
Suggest three (3) vendors that developed and are employing efficient registrar and school management database systems and support your reasons to choose from one (1) of these three (3) vendors.
Compare and contrast the key aspects that each system offers. Examples of system aspects include but not limited to cloud based, pricing model, open source, etc.
Must have introduction and conclusion.
At least one in-text citation in each paragraph.
All paragraphs must be labeled.
Include charts or diagrams created in Excel, Visio, MS Project, or one of their equivalents such as Open Project, Dia, and OpenOffice. The completed diagrams / charts must be imported into the Word document before the paper is submitted.

The  is an electric multiple unit (EMU) train type operated by the private railway operator Fuji Kyuko (Fujikyu) on the Fujikyuko Line in Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan, since February 2012. A total of four three-car trains were introduced during fiscal 2011 and 2012, converted from former JR East 205 series EMU cars.

Design
Converted from former JR East 205 series EMU cars, the exterior and interior design of the 3-car 6000 series EMUs was overseen by industrial designer Eiji Mitooka. The second set to enter service, 6001, uses LED lighting throughout.

The first set, 6501, was converted from full-production 205 series cars constructed from 1985 to 1991, and has single-pane passenger windows, while subsequent sets (Set 6001 onwards) were converted from pre-production 205 series cars and have two-pane passenger windows which were originally from Yamanote Line from 1985 to 2005 and then Keiyo Line from 2005 to 2011.

Operations
The 6000 series trains operate on the  Fujikyuko Line in Yamanashi Prefecture, which runs between  and , and are normally used on all-stations "Local" services.

Formation
The 6000 series are formed as 3-car sets as shown below, with car 1 at the Fujisan end. The first set in service, 6501, was converted from three cars of former Keiyo Line 205 series set KeYo 22. The second set, 6001, was converted from three cars of former Keiyo Line set KeYo 25. The fifth set, 6502, was converted from three cars of former Saikyo Line set Hae 28. The sixth set, 6701, was converted from three cars of former Hachiko Line set Hae 85.

The Mc cars are equipped with two FPS33E single-arm pantographs (only one normally used).

History

Conversion

The first set of three former Keiyo Line 205 series cars was transferred in unpainted form from JR East's Nagano Works to the Fujikyuko Line in October 2011. Modifications involved transplanting a driving cab onto a former intermediate motored car, the provision of LED destination indicators, and passenger-operated door buttons.

The second set (former Keiyo Line set KeYo 25) was transferred to the Fujikyuko Line in January 2012.

Driver training commenced in February 2012, with the units still in unpainted form.

Entry into service
The first set entered revenue service on 29 February 2012 (a date which can be read as fu-ji-kyu in Japanese). A formal debut event was staged on 18 March 2012, from which date, set 6501 also entered revenue service.

A further four former 205 series cars were purchased from JR East in November 2016.

Livery variations

In September 2016, set 6501 received a special red and white livery based on that of the Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn in Switzerland to mark the 25th anniversary of the signing of a sister railway agreement with the line.

Smithwick Mine
By: Lawrence Rakestraw
Smithwick Mine Interpretative Sign, NVIC (60-368), ISRO Archives.
he Smithwick Mine was one of the earliest established on Isle Royale and is probably the one most often seen by visitors today. It was located in July 1843 by James Smithwick and worked by his agent, C. G. Shaw. Active work began in 1847, when a blacksmith shop, a root cellar, and several dwellings were built, some near the mine, some just to the east of the present Rock Harbor marina. Two shafts were started, and a great deal of exploration in the vicinity was carried on. By 1848 the main shaft had been sunk to the depth of 90 feet. Little copper was found, and we have no record of commercial production. The present remains of the prospect consist of four shafts, on a north-south line, along the Moose Trail leading from Snug Harbor.

PTW Petoskey State Park Sticker
Petoskey State Park, located on the north end of Little Traverse Bay, is situated on 303 scenic acres and offers a beautiful sandy beach on the bay. The park land was originally deeded to Pay-Me-Gwau under an Ottawa Indian treaty in July of 1855. In 1934, the City of Petoskey purchased the land and named it the Petoskey Bathing Beach. In April of 1968, the beach was sold to the State of Michigan. On May 21, 1969, the state was given the title to the land. The campground opened its sites to the first campers in July of 1970.
This 4" sticker celebrates Petoskey State Park with an iconic Petoskey Stone and Little Traverse Bay in the background.

Ryan Reynolds Hilariously Reacts After Betty White Claims He 'Can't Get Over' Her
After Betty White joked about her "Proposal" co-star Ryan Reynolds having a "thing" for her, the actor took to social media to send a message about the media "exploiting past relationships"
By Jess Cohen • Published December 30, 2021
Ryan Reynolds is speaking out after Betty White publicly addressed his crush on her.
As fans may recall, the actor has gushed over his "Proposal" co-star on a number of occasions since she portrayed his on-screen grandmother in the 2009 film. In fact, back in Jan. 2019, Reynolds took to social media to send his love to White on her 97th birthday. "I don't usually post about ex-girlfriends. But Betty's special," he cheekily wrote on Instagram at the time. "Happy Birthday to the one and only, @bettymwhite."
In a recent interview with People ahead of her 100th birthday, White jokingly commented on Reynolds' crush. "I've heard Ryan can't get over his thing for me," she told the outlet, "but Robert Redford is The One."
After the article was published, Reynolds couldn't help but respond in his signature humor, tweeting early Dec. 30, "I'm absolutely sick of the media exploiting past relationships just to drive clicks."

Betty White's Best Roles
Jokes aside, Reynolds, who shares three kids with wife Blake Lively, actually took part in the publication's tribute to White, telling People he's been a fan of the star "for as long as I can remember."
"I heard that scripts for Golden Girls were only 35 pages," he told the outlet, "which makes sense because so many of the laughs come from Betty simply looking at her castmates."
Reynolds, 45, also called his friend and former co-star a "typical Capricorn."
"Sleeps all day," he said of White. "Out all night boozing and snacking on men."

It was just two years ago, for White's 98th birthday, that Reynolds and fellow "Proposal" star Sandra Bullock paid tribute to the actress by singing her "Happy Birthday" in a video posted to Twitter.
While the hilarious rendition started out all smiles, things took a slight turn when Reynolds and Bullock debated who loved White more. "What does Sandy do for you every year?" Reynolds asked. "I mean, does she, like, hand-deliver flowers for you and wear nothing but black socks and a dozen gold bracelets, just like you requested? Doubt it."

Сакраны (лат. Sacrani) — древний италийский «народ», этнополитическая общность в Латии, сабинского происхождения.

Источники
Сведения о сакранах дошедшие до нашего времени немногочисленны и представлены краткими упоминаниями о них только у латинских писателей.

Первое известие о сакранах даёт Публий Вергилий Марон (70 — 19 до н. э.). Он упоминает их в перечислении некоторых древних народов Латия в своей знаменитой поэме «Энеиде» (кн. VII, стих 796).

Также о скаранах писал древнеримский грамматик конца II века н. э. Секст Помпей Фест в сочинении «О значении слов (De verborum signifi catu)» (ст. Sacrani). Но от этого произведения сохранились лишь выписки других писателей.

Упоминал о скаранах и римский грамматик конца IV века Мавр Сервий Гонорат в обширных «Комментариях к 'Энеиде' (In Vergilii Aeneidem commentarii)» Вергилия.

Сведения о сакранах и обычае ver sacrum сохранил историк-антиквар Павел Диакон в своём кратком извлечении из Феста: «Эпитома сочинения Секта Помпея Феста 'О значении слов'» (конец VIII века) (ст. Sacrani; Ver sacrum).

История
Историю сакранов можно восстановить лишь частично. Известно, что они происходили из древней столицы сабинов города Реате. По Фесту (в изложении Павла Диакона) здесь исполнялся сабинами италийский обычай давать обет священной весны (ver sacrum): «Ведь побужденные великими опасностями, они обещали принести жертву из числа всех живых существ, что народятся ближайшей весной. Но так как казалось жестоким убивать невинных мальчиков и девочек, то они скрывали их до совершеннолетия и затем изгоняли за пределы своих границ». Так что, когда подходило время, сабины в Реате проводили особый обряд изгнания во исполнение жертвенного обета священной весны (vere sacro). Этот обычай давал название и прошедшим через обряд изгнанникам — сакраны (sacrani).

Подробно этот обычай изгнания посвящённой весне молодёжи описывает также древнегреческий историк и ритор второй половины I века до н. э. Дионисий Галикарнасский в «Римских древностях» (Кн. I, XVI) (однако, он относит это к аборигинам).

Таким образом, из племени сабинов регулярно уходила часть деятельной молодёжи. Однако, лишённые гражданских прав, они не теряли племенного и религиозного единства. Собираясь в вооруженные отряды, которые были снабжены родственниками и общиной всем необходимым, включая оружие, сакраны расселялись по окружающим землям. В основном, видимо, они становились наёмниками.

Согласно смутным припоминаниям латинских писателей, в давние времена отряды сакранов спустились с Сабинских гор и заняли область но нижнему течению Тибра, изгнав господствовавших там лигуров и сикулов (по Фесту). Так сакраны подчинили себе некоторые общины Притибрья, и в том числе участок позднее названный Семихолмием (Септимонтием, Septimontium). Но, кроме округи будущего Древнего Рима, сакраны некоторое время властвовали и над рядом других общин северо-восточного Латия.

Так Вергилий, описывая состав войска перед битвой и относя события ко «временам Энея», называет отряды воинов Средней Италии. Среди прочих, в этом перечислении упомянуты: «со щитами цветными сакраны» (Энеида. Кн. VII, стих 796).

Ф. Шулин предполагает, что у сакранов был обычай нести перед собой в походе в виде знамени изображение священного волка, животного, посвящённого Марсу. По Шулину, именно латинские сакраны учредили в одной пещере у подошвы Палатинского холма своё святилище волка (lupercal), и установили ежегодные празднества в честь волка — Луперкалии (lupercalia), справлявшиеся и в позднейшее римское время.

Позднее сакраны были потеснены в Латии аборигинами, также вышедшими из области Реате. С этого времени сакраны уже не имели серьёзного политического значения. Постепенно они ассимилировались различными общинами латинян и больше в истории не упоминались.

Inspiring. Enthusiastic. Partnerships. Youth Leadership. Social Justice. Creating a Positive Future. Those are a few words I'd use to describe the mood, energy and intention of the 3rd Safe Routes to School National Conference in Minneapolis.
As the more than 600 participants entered the Minneapolis Convention Center on August 17, the second day of the conference, the room was buzzing with people talking about workshops and connections they made the day before.
Fired Up! That's the best way I can describe the energy on the first day of the 3rd Safe Routes to School National Conference, which is being held at the Minneapolis Convention Center. About 600 people from nearly every state in the US came here seeking to learn, share and build connections so that they can go home with new tools to improve their communities, making them safer for kids to walk and bike – improving health, communities and the environment.


Not very good news for companies that are betting on the production of components for their platform Atom:according to the Taiwanese IT-resource company Digitimes Intel plans to complicate the possibility of buying Atom processors without proper binding of the most Intel.
In particular, reports Digitimes, closed a statement recently sent to Intel Taiwan manufacturers of laptop PCs, reiterated that the Atom processors for netbukov and nettopov will be available exclusively with chipsets 945GSE and 945GC.
In addition, Intel also separately commented on the complete absence of official plans for validation chipset NVIDIA MCP79 platform for Atom, and the lack of joint ventures with NVIDIA plans for partnership with the future of platforms based on Intel Atom.
Comments representatives Intel actually directed primarily against attempts to expand the ecosystem NVIDIA Atom own proposals. It recently announced a platform on the Ion, which includes chipsets for the Intel Atom with integrated GeForce 9400 graphics. The impossibility of acquiring processors Atom separately from the Intel chipset platform Ion turns in a fairly expensive.
also reported that members of the NVIDIA already visited a number of Taiwanese manufacturers with a proposal to adapt MCP7A and MCP79 chipset platform for Atom, but the outcome of these talks, no information yet.

I'm having a moment with mixed mushrooms! The depth of flavour that you get from asian mushrooms is incredible! I topped this off with truffle oil and a creamy vegan sauce which worked SO well! I want to make this again ASAP it reminded me of a rich carbonara!!
Zoodles are great……you can be really inventive with your sauces and also stick to the classic 'spaghetti' recipes which always work! You can enjoy them hot or cold but personally I like to throw them in with the sauce for a few minutes and heat them through before serving!
Spiralise your zucchini (courgette) and leave to one side.
Add some olive oil to a pan over a medium heat.
Add in your yoghurt and reduce the heat.
Throw in your spinach and 2 tbsp water with 1 tsp of the truffle oil.
Add in your zoodles and stir the mix through for a few minutes.
Discard the rosemary sprigs and serve into dishes.
Top with the remaining truffle oil.

I blogged the other day about how a "viral agency" had been posting nice reviews in Swedish online forums on behalf of Samsung, but without disclosing their true identity. The scam was revealed and in a comment to the marketing blog Adland, Samsung said that the procedure was out of line and that they had put an end to it.
However, it seems that this undercover operation to get a buzz going may not be limited to Sweden. In an article today on the UK computer forum Computeractive.co.uk, Deputy Editor Tom Royal, writes that someone has started threads on the forum, promoting Samsung products such as digital video cameras.
Other places with the same text and video are here, here and here.
I realize that it is possible that Samsung has nothing to do with the spreading of this video, it may just be enthusiastic fans or spam sites that scrape content online. But it is starting to look a bit suspiciuos don't you think? Tom Royal has tried to get a comment from Samsung and promised to post if he gets a response. We will continue to follow this story as it unveils.
Footnote: Original story found here, in Swedish.
Volkswagen turns to social media when promoting new cars. In a recent Advertising Age article, Volkswagen of America says it is launching the next generation GTI exclusively on an iPhone app, because it is a cost-efficient marketing tool. Compare that with the $60 million Volkswagen spent on TV commercials on the 2006 launch of GTI.
And in Sweden, Volkswagen has produced three videos that have gone viral, to the extent that one of them has become the most viral video ever made (even more viral than Susan Boyle, thank God), at least according to the Viral Video Chart. "Pianotrappan" (the piano stairs) has been viewed almost 7 million times in less than a month, but what makes it the most viral video is the number of blog posts and tweets about the video (3,100 blog posts and 12,800 tweets). Well done Volkswagen and DDB.

Shuggie Bain (Winner of the Booker Prize 2020)
Stuart, Douglas
Winner for the Booker Prize 2020 for the (US) National Book Award for Fiction 2020
'We were bowled over by this first novel, which creates an amazingly intimate, compassionate, gripping portrait of addiction, courage and love.' The judges of the Booker Prize
'Douglas Stuart has written a first novel of rare and lasting beauty.' Observer
Shuggie is different. Fastidious and fussy, he shares his mother's sense of snobbish propriety. The miners' children pick on him and adults condemn him as no' right. But Shuggie believes that if he tries his hardest, he can be normal like the other boys and help his mother escape this hopeless place.
Douglas Stuart's Shuggie Bain lays bare the ruthlessness of poverty, the limits of love, and the hollowness of pride. A counterpart to the privileged Thatcher-era London of Alan Hollinghurst's The Line of Beauty, it also recalls the work of Edouard Louis, Frank McCourt, and Hanya Yanagihara, a blistering debut by a brilliant writer with a powerful and important story to tell.

Police still don't know where a concrete block that caused M11 horror smash came from, inquest hears
He was driving on the M11 when a concrete block hit his windscreen
Lottie O'NeillMultimedia Journalist
Andrew Michael Brett died after a concrete block hit his windscreen on the M11
Police do not know where the concrete block that flew into a van driver's windscreen in the moments before he lost control of the vehicle and died came from, an inquest heard.
An inquest into the death of Andrew Michael Brett was held this morning (November 10).
Mr Brett, 61, who lived in Sible Hedingham, lost control of his work van on the motorway after a block of concrete came through his windscreen as he drove along the M11 on August 9.
He died of severe head injuries following the crash between junction 7 and junction 8, near Harlow.
The concrete hit his windscreen at around 4.50pm and weighed approximately 2.4 kg causing him to crash into with the central reservation before driving onto the verge.
Mother and baby found dead at a Brentwood home died of an insulin overdose
Members of the public stopped and performed CPR before the ambulance arrived, but paramedics confirmed his death at 5.25pm on the same day.
Police were able to understand what happened due to two passing vehicle's dash cam footage but the investigation could not determine at which point Mr Brett lost consciousness during the incident.
According to the police report, he collided with the central reservation, veered across three lanes and then drove off of the hard shoulder and onto the verge.
The vehicle then re-entered the hard shoulder before veering off onto the verge for the last time and colliding with a tree.
A post mortem was carried out on August 10 by Doctor Benjamin Swift at Princess Alexandra hospital in Harlow.
He found the cause of death to be severe head injuries.
Chelmsford man who recorded 13-year-old girl undressing spared jail
Detective Chief Inspector (DCI) Passmore of Essex Police lead the investigation and gave evidence at the inquest.
He said: "Although the vehicles driving past Mr Brett can describe what happened to his vehicle as it veered across the carriageway, no one is able to tell us where this concrete has come from, how it has come about, and how it entered the windscreen."
The police looked into several possible reasons, including whether the block came from an aircraft, however, there were no heavy planes flying over at that time.
After the concrete block entered Mr Brett's windscreen and before he began to lose control of the vehicle, dash cam footage shows him accelerating towards a lorry driving ahead of him, but it is not known why as his family describe him as a careful driver.
It is estimated that he travelled for 1000 to 1010 meters from the start of the impact until he crashed into the tree on to the verge.
Senior coroner Caroline Beasley-Murray concluded the inquest.
She said: "Sadly, despite a thorough investigation it has not been possible to establish how it came to be the concrete block that came through the windscreen.

Southside rallies for historic win over Pendleton
Ryan Davenport
PENDLETON – Playoff football often comes down to executing at the right time.
Southside managed that feat five times over Friday night – in one second remaining in regulation and one overtime period.
The Tigers advanced to the third round of the playoffs – at undefeated Chester – for the first time in school history with a wild, never-say-die 22-20 victory against Pendleton.
The Bulldogs took a 14-8 lead on Jamal Blakley's 15-yard pass to Payton Bunch with 3:54 remaining in the second quarter and held onto that score for nearly the remainder of the game.
Nearly.
Blakley dropped back to punt with 12 seconds left in the game. Attempting to run time off the clock, Blakley was tackled at the Bulldog 1-yard line with exactly one second on the clock.
"I said they're gonna try to take a safety, so try to tackle him before he gets to the end zone," Southside coach Jeremy West recalled of the moment that gave the Tigers a fresh start to the season.
Braydon Bennett bulled in behind his massive "Beast Mode" formation blockers to tie the game – the second of those key moments. Jalon Calhoun was stopped within a few feet of the right corner of the end zone on the 2-point conversion attempt to send the game to overtime.
The rejuvenated Tigers were in the end zone again three plays later. Following a 1-yard loss on a Bennett run and an incompletion, sophomore quarterback Jamie Gamble's pass attempt to Mark Smith was tipped right into the waiting hands of Bennett crossing the back of the end zone.
"It was a read-option. The first slant was covered, so I took the second slant. It was a blessing from God," said Gamble.
"I saw it was high, so I knew I had to do something with it and tipped it up. God blessed us all with that one," recalled Smith of his missed opportunity and the team's good fortune.
"I was ready to get hype with him (Smith), then suddenly said I gotta make a play then," said Bennett of his fortuitous grab – the second of his critical moments.
Bennett took the snap on the 2-point conversion attempt, rolled right, and leaned across the goal line with what proved to be the difference.
Pendleton was not finished. Blakley bounced around the pocket before tossing to a wide open Bunch in the back corner of the end zone on the Bulldogs first play of their overtime possession.
The final moment for the Tigers was the ensuing conversion attempt. Trayy Oglesby – in his only defensive snap of the night – pressured Blakley from his blind side, forcing Blakley's pass wide of an open Zion Green in the front corner of the end zone to seal the win for Southside.
West's postgame talk to an exuberant squad surrounded by fans concluded with a history-making announcement:
"Southside is practicing football on Thanksgiving!"

For 30 years Oliver Reginald Tambo was central to the struggle against apartheid. With so many of his comrades imprisoned, he served as the key organiser, strategist, representative and father figure of the liberation movement. A man of enormous discipline and determination, he was renowned for his compassion, and his gentle nature.
Tambo's life was shaped by the epic struggle to free South Africa from the violent grip of the apartheid state. He faced many years of unrelenting danger and difficulty. Through all of this, he maintained an extraordinary humanity.
