NASCAR America: Who can beat Kyle Busch?
By Daniel McFadinApr 11, 2019, 6:26 PM EDT
Kyle Busch is on a roll. He leads the Cup Series with three wins entering this weekend's race at Richmond and he'll be going for his third straight win on the short track.
Across all three national series he has 10 wins and he has at least one victory in each of the last seven race weekends.
So his fellow competitors don't need any more incentive to beat him, right?
Maybe, but Parker Kligerman wouldn't mind there being extra rewards for drivers if they manage to beat Busch while he's in such a groove.
"I know you used to do this in short-track racing, but right now I'd like to see a bounty on Kyle Busch," Kligerman said Thursday on NASCAR America. "Whoever but I'm saying something to raise the stakes, saying This guy has been so incredible to start the season across all three series. Now, going to another short track, what a cool storyline it would be to say, 'Alright, if anyone beats him you're going to be rewarded for this. Because this guy is setting the standard right now.'"
Watch the above video for more on Busch and the dominance of Joe Gibbs Racing and Team Penske.

Streetlab is een Nederlands televisieprogramma van programmaproductiebedrijf CCCP en wordt uitgezonden door de KRO-NCRV. In het programma voeren vier vrienden sociale experimenten uit. In augustus 2014 verscheen het voor het eerst op televisie in het kader van TV Lab. Een jaar later werd het genomineerd voor de Gouden Televizier Ring.

Format
De vier jeugdvrienden Jasper Demollin, Stijn van Vliet, Daan Boom en Tim Senders zoeken in het programma originele antwoorden op vragen. Daarin testen zij elkaar en argeloze voorbijgangers. Enkele terugkerende items zijn onder meer de Sociolympics en het antwoord op de vraag of je ergens kunt werken zonder dat je er daadwerkelijk werkt. Met hun stunts halen de vier regelmatig de media. Zo wist Boom zich op het podium te bluffen van de slotceremonie van het Cannes Film Festival en trainde Van Vliet ongemerkt mee bij FC Utrecht en Schalke 04. Ook wist Demollin het startpodium te betreden tijdens een tijdrit bij de Ronde van Frankrijk 2015. De aflevering van 2 maart 2015 won uiteindelijk een NPO Gemist Award in de categorie Cultuur & Amusement.

Stoppen en doorstart
In 2018 kondigden de jongens van Streetlab aan dat ze zouden stoppen. De KRO-NCRV gaf aan dat het programma niet meer gemaakt kon worden omdat de presentatoren te bekend zouden zijn geworden, waardoor ze hun experimenten niet meer konden uitvoeren. Ook de spin-off Streetlab: Niet te geloven stopte.

In 2020 kondigde de KRO-NCRV aan dat het programma terug zou komen. In deze nieuwe variant, genaamd Streetlab: De Liefde, voeren ze weer hun oude experimenten uit met een focus op het thema liefde. Daarnaast gaan ze ook kijkers helpen met hun liefdesproblemen.

Side2Side
In het eerste seizoen Streetlab probeerden Demollin, Van Vliet, Boom en Senders bij wijze van proef internationaal door te breken als boyband. Onder de naam Side 2 Side deden ze mee met Das Supertalent, de Duitse versie van Holland's Got Talent. Een seizoen later kondigden ze hun 'afscheid' aan in de hoop alsnog succesvol te worden. Ze riepen daarbij de hulp van René Froger in. Het nummer Forget My Name behaalde een paar dagen na de uitzending de nominatielijst van de Tipparade. Op de single werd vervolgens een recordaantal stemmen uitgebracht. In november 2016 maakte Froger bekend dat Side2Side als gastartiesten mogen optreden tijdens de 6 kerstconcerten van De Toppers in Ahoy Rotterdam. Ook brachten De Toppers een kerstsingle uit: Een heel gelukkig kerstfeest. In de bijbehorende videoclip spelen de heren van Side2Side een figurantenrol. In 2020 maakte Side2Side een comeback samen met Getty Kaspers met het nummer Ding a Dong Love Song.

Spin-offs

Streetlab: Niet te geloven
In 2017 krijgen de jongens van Streetlab ook een studioprogramma, genaamd Niet te geloven. In deze quiz moeten ze bekende Nederlanders overtuigen dat ongelofelijke verhalen daadwerkelijk zijn gebeurd. Dit programma werd gepresenteerd door Tess Milne. Hier wordt één seizoen van gemaakt.

Streetlab 24
In 2019 komt Streetlab eenmalig terug met een experiment op YouTube, genaamd Streetlab 24. In dit programma proberen de jongens van Streetlab 24 uur lang achter elkaar live televisie uit te zenden. Dit experiment liep van 22 oktober 2019 om 10.00 uur tot 23 oktober 2019 om 10.00 uur.

Off the Streetlab
Tijdens de coronacrisis in 2020 komen de jongens van Streetlab weer met een online spin-off. Dit keer voeren ze hun experimenten uit vanuit huis. Via videobellen hebben ze contact met elkaar.

Prijzen
Eind september 2015 werd bekend dat Streetlab samen met Expeditie Robinson van RTL 5 en SynDROOM van RTL 4 genomineerd was voor de 50ste Gouden Televizier-Ring, die werd uitgereikt op 15 oktober 2015. De nominatie zorgde voor flink wat ophef in de media. Veel tv-coryfeeën vonden de nominatie niet verdiend omdat het programma te weinig kijkers trekt. De nominatie leidde uiteindelijk niet tot het winnen van de Ring, die ging naar SynDROOM.
In december 2019 won het een Hashtag Award in de categorie Beste Livestream.

The Gift of Mentorship is Helping to Change Lives
Once a month, Comcast employee Steven Greene gets in his car and drives two hours to have lunch with 16-year-old Micah, a student he mentors at our company's Jacksonville, Fla. regional office. He doesn't mind the drive, and December's meeting was especially worth it – he got to witness Micah's big smile when he was gifted a free iPad. "Surprises like this are what make the commitment even more special," Steven said.

Graduating Paradise Strong
Comcast volunteers help Paradise High School seniors graduate for the first ceremony since the devastating Camp Fire.
By Philip Arndt
On Nov. 8, 2018, the town of Paradise witnessed the most destructive and devastating wildfire in California history. The lives of Paradise residents were changed forever when the Camp Fire decimated most of the town, destroying nearly 14,000 homes and numerous businesses and burning more than 150,000 acres.
Although much of the town was destroyed by the fire, a few structures remained, including Paradise High School. It became a symbol of the community – something the town needed, a marker in the sand that Paradise was here to stay.

These are some of the highlights of the provisional annual World Meteorological Organization on the status of the global climate, which gives a global temperature assessment and a snapshot of weather and climate events around the world in 2011. It was released Tuesday at the international climate conference in Durban, South Africa.
The WMO provisional statement estimated the global combined sea surface and land surface air temperature for 2011 (January–October) at 0.41°C ± 0.11°C (0.74°F ± 0.20°F) above the 1961–1990 annual average of 14.00°C/57.2°F, according to the provisional statement. This is the tenth equal warmest year since the start of records in 1850.
The 2002-2011 period equals 2001-2010 as the warmest decade on record, 0.46°C above the long-term average.
Global climate in 2011 was heavily influenced by the strong La Niña event which developed in the tropical Pacific in the second half of 2010 and continued until May 2011. It was one of the strongest of the last 60 years and was closely associated with the drought in east Africa, islands in the central equatorial Pacific and the southern United States, and flooding in southern Africa, eastern Australia and southern Asia.
Strong La Niña years are typically 0.10 to 0.15°C cooler than the years preceding and following them. 2011's global temperatures followed this pattern, being lower than those of 2010, but were still considerably warmer than the most recent moderate to strong La Niña years, 2008 (+0.36°C), 2000 (+0.27°C) and 1989 (+0.12°C). Weak La Niña conditions have redeveloped in recent weeks but have not yet approached the intensity of those in late 2010 and early 2011.
Surface air temperatures were above the long-term average in 2011 over most land areas of the world. The largest departures from average were over Russia, especially in northern Russia where January-October temperatures were about 4°C above average in places.
The seasonal Arctic sea ice minimum, reached on 9 September, was 4.33 million square kilometres. This was 35% below the 1979-2000 average and only slightly more than the record low set in 2007. Unlike the 2007 season, both the Northwest and Northeast Passages were ice-free for periods during the 2011 summer. Sea ice volume was even further below average and was estimated at a new record low of 4200 cubic kilometres, surpassing the record of 4580 cubic kilometres set in 2010.
The above-average temperatures in most northern polar regions coincided with the second-lowest Arctic sea ice minimum extent and the lowest sea ice volume on record.

People naturally love to party. We love to get together and celebrate, and almost any excuse will do. Personal anniversaries, such as graduation, or wedding anniversaries are also an opportunity to relive a happy or life changing moment in our lives.
In the corporate world it is no different. Anniversaries are an opportunity to remind ourselves of corporate success, to relive moments of achievement, to celebrate a ground breaking award.
The celebrating of corporate anniversaries can also have a secondary (some will say more important) purpose – that of reminder OTHERS of your success, longevity and achievements. After all – nothing speaks of your quality more than having been in business for 25, 50 or even 100 years!
This is why we so frequently give our customers, suppliers, staff and supporters some form of anniversary gift, premium or custom made momento on an anniversary, or upon receiving a special corporate award.
Unlike Wedding anniversaries, where there are both Modern and Traditional "anniversary gifts" that are "official" – there really are no Corporate Gifts that we generally give to mark specific occasions.
Another gift that can be considered to be distributed to valued partners on an achievement could be a custom made USB, that comes loaded with a presentation tracing the company history and development. Something of this nature serves the dual purpose of making clients feel special, but also reinforces your own strength and range of services as a company.
Naturally, another possibility when you are Celebrating and Important Corporate Event is the creation of a special logo – like a seal of success for achieving five Enterprise 50 awards.
Many companies also like to give a custom made gift for long serving staff. The nature and value of the long service gift is, of course, going to vary from length of service, to nature of the employee. What is common in the service field is to custom print a different uniform for staff that achieve a special goal – such as service champion, or imprint a logo on the shirt of staff that reach the two or five year service anniversary. Other fields may want to give high quality custom printed pens or other momentos.
Naturally there are also custom made gifts that allow our customers to celebrate – gifts that grow up with the company and become collectible items in and of themselves. This could be something like a custom made plush toy (with a t-shirt that you custom print each year) that changes as the years go by. This could be given to customers to encourage additional spending, or the purchase of specific items.
In essence – what you celebrate, and how you celebrate is as limitless as the range of gifts that can be created and customized for your needs. If you wish to celebrate an anniversary, and have in mind a gift that you would like to give, or if you have and event coming up and would like an idea on how it can be celebrated, speak to one of our corporate gift consultants on how we can help with a customised gift to mark the occasion.

New Development Hints At Jennifer Lopez And Alex Rodriguez's Future
By Griffin Matis
Tinseltown/Shutterstock.com
Everyone was shocked to hear that Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez had split when news broke a few days ago, especially us. However, later reports clarified that the two were actually still working through their issues as a couple. Now, there's been yet another development, and it offers a hopeful glimpse at what the future could hold for Lopez and Rodriguez.
According to TMZ, the two have been working through their issues together, but its source reveals that their problems don't involve a third person — that is, the status of their relationship hasn't changed due to the allegations surrounding Rodriguez and Southern Charm star Madison LeCroy. Prior reports about Lopez and Rodriguez's reaction to those accusations said that they were effectively unphased by them, which seems to still be true. Even without the possibility of infidelity, celebrity relationships are tricky, especially with a pandemic complicating work and travel, so it's understandable that the two might be struggling.
When news first broke of the possible split, many noticed that Jennifer Lopez was alone in the Dominican Republic for work and assumed that she'd been separated from her fiance for weeks or months. Now, TMZ's insider tells the outlet that Alex Rodriguez has actually been taking regular trips to see her, which was verified by the fact the Rodriguez shared an Instagram story of his view from his place in the Dominican Republic and tagged Lopez in it. "Happy Monday. New week. New day. Onward. Upward," he wrote on the picture.
As TMZ noted, there's a strong possibility that his latest trip had been planned before the incorrect breakup news circulated, and by going, despite all of the split talk, is a good sign for their future together. Given that Lopez and Rodriguez both told the outlet that they're not single and that they're working on their problems, things could be looking up for their relationship.

David Cassidy Confessed He Still Drank and Didn't Have Dementia Before His Death
A&E aired the shocking confession in a trailer for its documentary David Cassidy: The Last Session on June 6

Bobby Bank/WireImage
David Cassidy admitted he didn't have dementia and was still abusing alcohol just weeks before his death.
A&E aired the shocking confession in a trailer for its documentary David Cassidy: The Last Session on June 6.
According to People, the former teen idol called one of the documentary's producers after he fell ill in a recording studio and was rushed to the hospital. It was during this recorded conversation The Partridge Family star admitted the truth.
"There is no sign of me having dementia at this stage of my life," Cassidy said. "It was complete alcohol poisoning. And the fact is, I lied about my drinking."
When asked if he thought his memory loss was related to alcohol, Cassidy confirmed his doctor had told him it was "directly related" to alcoholism.
"You know, I did it to myself, man," he said. "I did it to myself to cover up the sadness and the emptiness."
In addition, Cassidy revealed he had liver disease and that his life had "changed dramatically."
"The first few days I was unconscious and near death," he said. "The last week or so my memory has come back. That's such a blessing. That means I'm cognizant of my surroundings. That I'm alive and it's daytime and I know what day of the week it is."
Partridge Family costar Danny Bonaduce spoke about Cassidy's confession to People.
"Part of alcoholism is lying," the Danny Partridge character told the magazine. "When you're an addict, you know you can't be honest with people. You say what you want them to hear. I can't be mad at David for that, but it's still a tragedy."
Celebrity Deaths: 2018's Fallen Stars
Cassidy died on Nov. 21, 2017 after being hospitalized for liver and kidney failure. He was 67 years old. Earlier that year, Cassidy said his memory loss was due to dementia and thanked his fans for their love and support. Cassidy made the comment shortly after a video of him falling on stage at a Los Angeles concert surfaced online—causing concern that he had relapsed. Cassidy battled with substance abuse in the past and had been arrested for driving under the influence three times.
Cassidy is survived by his children, Katie Cassidy, 31, and Beau Cassidy, 27.
Watch the videos to see trailers for the documentary.
David Cassidy: The Last Session airs June 11 at 9:00 p.m. on A&E.

Nigerian startup Edves takes part in renowned global ed-tech accelerator
Nigerian startup Edves has become the first African company to take part in the Go Edtech Accelerator run by MindCET, which helps early-stage companies expand and raise capital.
Formed in 2016, Edves is an academic portal that automates operations in schools and colleges from admission to transcript generation.
The platform reduces teacher and administrator workload and gives them opportunities to mark attendance and prepare classroom lessons using AI algorithms. So far, Edves is used in over 500 schools in 17 states across Nigeria.
Since September, the startup has been taking part in the MindCET Go accelerator programme, which takes place in Israel, India, China, United States (US) and United Kingdom (UK) ad concludes this month.
Owned by CET Israel, the accelerator focuses on helping ed-tech startups at revenue and growth stage expand to the five different markets, and raise capital. Edves has been attending bootcamps across these markets and meeting pre-qualified investors.
Edves, which in 2018 won the Seedstars Global Education Prize and also secured US$120,000 funding from Chinook Capital – organiser of the Founders Incubator programme – and the Growth Capital fund of the Co-Creation Hub (CcHub) incubator, is now working towards a seed funding round in the next few months.
'Dimeji Falana, the startup's chief executive officer (CEO) and co-founder, said the startup had bootstrapped for a few years in a highly challenging space, and was only now really beginning its work. It has just launched a programme called Edves Catalyst, which last year gathered over 1,600 schools leader and teachers to collaborate, learn and receive new insights on leadership, team building, education technology, classroom engagement and school growth.

The team is now getting set to host over 3,000 school leaders at the 2020 edition in Lagos in June.
"Globally, ed-tech is a space that requires patience and commitment to work with educators and most importantly the heart that loves the learner's development," said Falana.
"There are over 70,000 schools in Nigeria, yet the number of out-of-school children is over 13 million. It is no longer breaking news; we have a big problem at hand. Edves promises to tackle this problem by innovating at the core, which is the school, by reducing teacher workload so schools can deliver continuously-improved education to the students that are currently in the classroom, while creating tech-enabled, location-and-situation-base solutions to win the out-of-school children."

Notice of Receipt of Petition for Decision That Nonconforming 1989 Volkswagen Golf Rallye Passenger Cars Are Eligible for Importation
A Notice by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration on 03/23/2005
The closing date for comments on the petition is April 22, 2005.
Docket No. NHTSA-2005-20686
National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, DOT.
Notice of receipt of petition for decision that nonconforming passenger cars are eligible for importation.
This document announces receipt by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) of a petition for a decision that 1989 Volkswagen Golf Rallye passenger cars that were not originally manufactured to comply with all applicable Federal motor vehicle safety standards are eligible for importation into the United States because (1) they are substantially similar to vehicles that were originally manufactured for sale in the United States and that were certified by their manufacturer as complying with the safety standards, and (2) they are capable of being readily altered to conform to the standards.
Comments should refer to the docket number and notice number, and be submitted to: Docket Management, Room PL-401, 400 Seventh St., SW., Washington, DC 20590. (Docket hours are from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.) Anyone is able to search the electronic form of all comments received into any of our dockets by the name of the individual submitting the comment (or signing the comment, if submitted on behalf of an association, business, labor union, etc.). You may review DOT's complete Privacy Act Statement in the Federal Register published on April 11, 2000 (Volume 65, Number 70; Pages 19477-78), or you may visit http://dms.dot.gov.
Coleman Sachs, Office of Vehicle Safety Compliance, NHTSA (202) 366-3151.
Under 49 U.S.C. 30141(a)(1)(A), a motor vehicle that was not originally manufactured to conform to all applicable Federal motor vehicle safety standards shall be refused admission into the United States unless NHTSA has decided that the motor vehicle is substantially similar to a motor vehicle originally manufactured for importation into and sale in the United States, certified under 49 U.S.C. 30115, and of the same model year as the model of the motor vehicle to be compared, and is capable of being readily altered to conform to all applicable Federal motor vehicle safety standards.
Petitions for eligibility decisions may be submitted by either manufacturers or importers who have registered with NHTSA pursuant to 49 CFR part 592. As specified in 49 CFR 593.7, NHTSA publishes notice in the Federal Register of each petition that it receives, and affords interested persons an opportunity to comment on the petition. At the close of the comment period, NHTSA decides, on the basis of the petition and any comments that it has received, whether the vehicle is eligible for importation. The agency then publishes this decision in the Federal Register.
US SPECS of Aberdeen, Maryland (Registered Importer 03-321) has petitioned NHTSA to decide whether nonconforming 1989 Volkswagen Golf Rallye passenger cars are eligible for importation into the United States. The vehicles which US SPECS believes are substantially similar are 1989 Volkswagen Golf passenger cars that were manufactured for sale in the United States and certified by their manufacturer as conforming to all applicable Federal motor vehicle safety standards.
The petitioner claims that it carefully compared non-U.S. certified 1989 Volkswagen Golf Rallye passenger cars to their U.S.-certified counterparts, and found the vehicles to be substantially similar with respect to compliance with most Federal motor vehicle safety standards.
US SPECS submitted information with its petition intended to demonstrate that non-U.S. certified 1989 Volkswagen Golf Rallye passenger cars, as originally manufactured, conform to many Federal motor vehicle safety standards in the same manner as their U.S. certified counterparts, or are capable of being readily altered to conform to those standards.
Specifically, the petitioner claims that non-U.S. certified 1989 Volkswagen Golf Rallye passenger cars are identical to their U.S. certified counterparts with respect to compliance with Standard Nos. 102 Transmission Shift Lever Sequence, Starter Interlock, and Transmission Braking Effect, 103 Windshield Defrosting and Defogging Systems, 104 Windshield Wiping and Washing Systems, 105 Hydraulic Brake Systems, 106 Brake Hoses, 107 Reflecting Surfaces, 109 New Pneumatic Tires, 112 HeadLamp Concealment Devices, 113 Hood Latch System, 116 Motor Vehicle Brake Fluids, 124 Accelerator Control Systems, 201 Occupant Protection in Interior Impact, 202 Head Restraints, 204 Steering Control Rearward Displacement, 205 Glazing Materials, 206 Door Locks and Door Retention Components, 207 Seating Systems, 211 Wheel Nuts, Wheel Discs and Hub Caps, 212 Windshield Mounting, 216 Roof Crush Resistance, 219 Windshield Zone Intrusion, and 302 Flammability of Interior Materials.
The petitioner also contends that the vehicles are capable of being readily altered to meet the following standards, in the manner indicated:
Standard No. 101 Controls and Displays: (a) Installation of an indicator lamp lens cover inscribed with the word "brake" in the instrument cluster in place of the one inscribed with the international ECE warning symbol; and (b) replacement or conversion of the speedometer to read in miles per hour.
Standard No. 108 Lamps, Reflective Devices and Associated Equipment: Inspection of all vehicles and installation, on vehicles that are not already so equipped, of U.S.-model: (a) Headlamp assemblies; (b) front side marker lamps; (c) taillamp assemblies that incorporate rear side marker lamps; (d) rear high mounted stop lamp; and (e) front and rear side reflex reflectors.
Standard No. 110 Tire Selection and Rims: Installation of a tire information placard.
Standard No. 111 Rearview Mirrors: Installation of a U.S.-model passenger side rearview mirror, or inscription of the required warning statement on the face of that mirror.
Standard No. 114 Theft Protection: Installation a supplemental warning buzzer to meet the requirements of this standard.
Standard No. 115 Vehicle Identification: Installation of a vehicle identification plate near the left Start Printed Page 14752windshield post to meet the requirements of this standard.
Standard No. 118 Power-Operated Window, Partition, and Roof Panel Systems: Inspection of all vehicles and rewiring the vehicle's systems, as required, to ensure compliance with the requirements of the standard.
Standard No. 208 Occupant Crash Protection: Installation, on vehicles that are not already so equipped, of: (a) Seat belt warning buzzer and warning light systems wired to the seat belt latch; (b) U.S.-model knee bolsters; and (c) U.S.-model door-anchored automatic shoulder belts at front outboard seating positions on vehicles manufactured on or after September 1, 1989.

What a scorching summers day Saturday was. After meeting with the boys at the church in West Wratting, I went on to Joanna's parents house where she was getting ready. I knew her face was familiar when we first discussed the wedding plans - I had photographed the family some 10 years earlier when I worked for a Cambridge studio. I recognised all the family pictures in the house; small world as they say!
Anyway the wedding was beautiful and their reception was back at the house in a wonderful marquee. It was great to work with some of my favourite wedding professionals on the day including the fantastic Headspin Video.
Many congratulations to the new Mr and Mrs Clemence! A truly gorgeous couple married in a little village in Buckinghamshire on Saturday. Please enjoy the highlights of their day below... and turn up the volume!
The weather was unusually very hot for August! After getting ready at her parents house, Charlotte walked to the church with her father. The church was full, and some amazing singing took place during the service by some very talented guests. The reception followed, just around the corner in a stunning marquee, beautifully set out, it looked the business!
Congratulations to Jo and Justin on their wedding on probably the warmest day of the year so far!
Well the weather was gorgeous, as was the setting at Landwade Church, and their home nearby. As Jo walked down the aisle with her son Jess, I wondered whether Justin would have any fingernails left! Yes Jo was a little late but 15 minutes always seems like an ice age when you are the Groom. Anyway the rest of the day was so relaxed and informal with a long champagne reception where everyone chatted and enjoyed the evening sunshine. I was so pleased with the pictures and hope that you enjoy viewing the sneak preview below.


South Cambridgeshire's MP has slammed government plans to roll out disability benefit changes that could impact 165,000 people.
Conservative Heidi Allen joined other MPs criticising the shake-up of the Personal Independence Payment (PIP) in an emergency parliamentary debate yesterday (March 29).
Will hiding away 'unpleasant' shipping containers improve this Cambridge park?
Ministers want to tighten the PIP eligibility rules despite strong opposition from MPs, the Lords and charities.
The change ignores a recent tribunal ruling that said 165,000 coping with conditions such as epilepsy, diabetes and dementia should be entitled to the PIP benefit.
The tribunal decision said that people who find it difficult to leave their house because of severe "psychological distress" should receive the enhanced rate of support under the mobility component of PIP.
Speaking in the House of Commons, Mrs Allen said: "The courts have given us a loud and clear message that we have got it wrong on mental health.
"In this age where we are desperately trying to change society's views of mental health and parity of esteem, we have to listen to the courts - they have given us a judgment for a reason.
Earlier this month Theresa May admitted that the government's own Social Security Advisory Committee has not been consulted prior to the announcement of the PIP changes.
The committee has called on the government to "test" and "review" the regulation changes to "remove ambiguity".
Peers in the House of Lords defeated the Government in a "regret motion" this week and demanded that it review the impact of the new policy on people with mental health conditions.
MPs in yesterday's debate said they were often called upon by their constituents for help in securing their benefit entitlement.
Mrs Allen said: "One thing that has struck me when I have been through PIP assessments - either mock assessments or those that I have observed with a constituent - is the generous nature of the assessors.
"They are expected to be experts in mental health, physical health and mobility, and it is just not possible, in my view. I think that there needs to be triaging.
"PIP is a work in progress and the process needs to get better - and I could give 100 stories of my experience of sitting through the PIP process to show where it is going wrong."
SNP MP Corri Wilson said a Scottish Association for Mental Health's report on PIP had revealed people being advised "not to shave, and turn up dishevelled - to show that mentally they are unwell."
"This is no way to treat vulnerable people in our society and I am asking the government to reconsider," she added.
A House of Commons vote on the PIP changes is scheduled for April 19, outside of the time limit for MPs to have the opportunity to prevent them automatically passing into law.
Shadow Work and Pensions Secretary Debbie Abrahams said: "What particular kind of arrogance or disregard for democracy are the Government revealing? This does not bode well for their accountability to this place in the future negotiations."
Disabilities Minister Penny Mordaunt insisted that eight people will miss out of higher benefits as a result of the tribunal ruling being reversed.
She told MPs: "They are not a policy change, they are not intended to make new savings and they will not result in any claimant seeing a reduction in the amount of PIP previously awarded by the DWP.
"There is no change to the budget and no change to the guidance that we give to assessors."
But Debbie Abrahams slammed the new regulations as "nothing more than a shameful cut."
She said: "The Government's own analysis estimates that the new regulations will affect more than 160,000 people by 2023, the majority of whom will have mental health conditions.
"Many of these will be newer applicants, but the regulations will also affect those who are being reassessed, who will not be eligible for the full support to which they would have been entitled under the rulings of tribunals - an effective cut of £3.7 billion."

Q: Extract and Parse HTML Table using Jsoup How could I use Jsoup to extract specification data from this website separately for each row e.g. Network->Network Type, Battery etc.
import org.jsoup.Jsoup;
import org.jsoup.nodes.Document;
import org.jsoup.nodes.Element;
import org.jsoup.select.Elements;

public class mobilereviews {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        Document doc = Jsoup.connect("http://mobilereviews.net/details-for-Motorola%20L7.htm").get();
        for (Element table : doc.select("table")) {
            for (Element row : table.select("tr")) {
                Elements tds = row.select("td");
                System.out.println(tds.get(0).text());
            }
        }
    }
}

A: Here is an attempt to find the solution to your problem
Document doc = Jsoup.connect("http://mobilereviews.net/details-for-Motorola%20L7.htm").get();

for (Element table : doc.select("table[id=phone_details]")) {
     for (Element row : table.select("tr:gt(2)")) {
        Elements tds = row.select("td:not([rowspan])");
        System.out.println(tds.get(0).text() + "->" + tds.get(1).text());
     }
}

Parsing the HTML is tricky and if the HTML changes your code needs to change as well.
You need to study the HTML markup to come up with your parsing rules first.

*

*There are multiple tables in the HTML, so you first filter on the correct one table[id=phone_details]

*The first 2 table rows contain only markup for formatting, so skip them tr:gt(2)

*Every other row starts with the global description for the content type, filter it out td:not([rowspan])
For more complex options in the selector syntax, look here http://jsoup.org/cookbook/extracting-data/selector-syntax

A: xpath for the columns - //*[@id="phone_details"]/tbody/tr[3]/td[2]/strong
xpath for the values - //*[@id="phone_details"]/tbody/tr[3]/td[3]
@Joey's code tries to zero in on these. You should be able to write the select() rules based on the Xpath.
Replace the numbers (tr[N] / td[N]) with appropriate values.
Alternatively, you can pipe the HTML thought a text only browser and extract the data from the text. Here is the text version of the page. You can delimit the text or read after N chars to extract the data.

A: this is how i get the data from a html table.
org.jsoup.nodes.Element tablaRegistros = doc
                    .getElementById("tableId");
for (org.jsoup.nodes.Element row : tablaRegistros.select("tr")) {
                for (org.jsoup.nodes.Element column : row.select("td")) {
                    // Elements tds = row.select("td");
                    // cadena += tds.get(0).text() + "->" +
                    // tds.get(1).text()
                    // + " \n";
                    cadena += column.text() + ",";
                }
                cadena += "\n";
            }

A: Here is a generic solution to extraction of table from HTML page via JSoup.
import java.io.IOException;

import org.jsoup.Jsoup;
import org.jsoup.nodes.Document;
import org.jsoup.nodes.Element;
import org.jsoup.select.Elements;

public class ExtractTableDataUsingJSoup {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        extractTableUsingJsoup("http://mobilereviews.net/details-for-Motorola%20L7.htm","phone_details");
    }

    public static void extractTableUsingJsoup(String url, String tableId){
        Document doc;
        try {
            // need http protocol
            doc = Jsoup.connect(url).get();

            //Set id of any table from any website and the below code will print the contents of the table.
            //Set the extracted data in appropriate data structures and use them for further processing
            Element table = doc.getElementById(tableId);

            Elements tds = table.getElementsByTag("td");

            //You can check for nesting of tds if such structure exists
            for (Element td : tds) {
                System.out.println("\n"+td.text());
            }

        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

The National Insecurity State
by Ira Chernus on Nov 1, 2002
Fifty years ago this month, American voters chose Dwight D. Eisenhower as their next president. Though few realized it at the time, they also chose a vision of America as a nation permanently in peril. The Eisenhower era created a state of national insecurity that has lasted for half a century.
The Bush administration constantly voices the nation's hope for security. Yet its actions plunge us even deeper into insecurity. This administration alienates allies, expands our list of enemies and defines any potential competitor as a mortal threat.
The national insecurity state is our history. But it need not be our destiny. During the presidential campaign of 1952, the Republican Eisenhower attacked the Democrats' view that the Cold War would soon reach a climax. The Democrats wanted massive military spending to prepare for the final battle. Ike argued that too much spending would break the national bank. It was better to assume that the Cold War might go on indefinitely and find a level of spending the nation could afford for the long haul.
As president, Eisenhower urged the nation to expect the communist enemy to be around for 20, 50 or 60 years. In 1953, a White House aide wrote a secret memo spelling out the new administration's goal: to persuade all Americans to accept "the age of peril" as "the new and to all intents permanent normalcy."
Eisenhower did just that, and the message stuck long after he was gone. Throughout the Cold War era, most of the U.S. public assumed that America faced an evil that could never be eradicated. This seemed to justify a permanent national security state. Since the enemy would always loom beyond our borders, however, there was no way to feel really secure. The permanent "normalcy" would actually be a state of national insecurity.
Though the Cold War is long over, it is still easy to feel that we are in an endless "age of peril." In announcing the war on terrorism, President Bush declared it "a task that does not end." Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld agreed that we "surely will not" eliminate terrorism. Using the same term as Eisenhower's aide, Vice President Dick Cheney called this "a new normalcy." Cheney explained: "There's not going to be an end date when we're going to say, 'There, it's all over with.'"
In fact, the Bush administration ensures continuing war with its ever-growing enemies list. Now it's no longer just Bin Laden and Al-Qaida we must fear. Nor is it just the ill-defined network of terrorists and so-called rogue states that Bush speechwriters dubbed the "axis of evil." According to the recent Bush report, "The National Security Strategy of the United States," we are threatened by any nation that might resist the spread of free trade or seek military strength equal to our own.
The Cold War fears of the Eisenhower era were heightened by illusory Soviet boasts about that countryís military prowess. The managers of the national insecurity state eagerly embraced those boasts to justify their own policies. The Bush administration, too, frightens the public with unrealistic warnings of danger. Its "axis of evil" is actually a trio of pitifully weak states, which can easily be bombed into submission.
The Bush policies are hardly a replay of Eisenhower's, however. The president and his advisers do not see permanent insecurity as a way to control the military budget. On the contrary, they call for major increases, the kind that Eisenhower said would break our bank.Ý Yet their call stirs little debate in a nation so frightened.
The fears of the Eisenhower era came from the belief that we would always have a military competitor. The fears of the Bush era come from just the opposite belief: that we must never have any competitor, that the very existence of a competitor would be the main reason for feeling insecure.
If so, we are condemned to eternal insecurity. As every great boxer has learned, no matter how big and tough you are, there is always some young challenger who will not rest until he gets a shot at the champ. Given the unilateralist swagger of the current administration, challengers will probably appear sooner rather than later. The same swagger will discourage allies from coming to our aid.
Although there is vigorous debate about war in Iraq, the larger shape of the Bush security program evokes little public comment. Perhaps, fifty years after Ike's victory, the national insecurity state feels like the only world we could possibly inhabit. Perhaps we have forgotten how to seek, or even hope for, a sense of real security.
Real security does not come from dropping bombs on enemies or from barring our gates against them. It comes from a new vision of national humility and international cooperation that is still waiting to be born. Fifty years of insecurity is enough.

Strangers Nowhere in the World: The Rise of Cosmopolitanism in Early Modern Europe

CSC Services can undertake an Asset Condition Survey to identify and quantify any signs of corrosion, and assess the condition of current protective coatings and/or mortars.
Every asset has a service life – the expected years it can be expected to perform its function. Factors such as carbonation, abrasion, atmospheric chlorides or exposure to harmful chemicals can affect this service life, especially in harsh environments such as wastewater treatment plants. Once corrosion takes hold, it often does so quickly and can take an asset out of service or lead to service failure.
From an Asset Condition Survey recommendations will be made as to how the service life-span of the asset can be extended by effectively protecting against chemical attacks, joint-leaks, cracks and surface corrosion. This will take into account all relevant factors such as the location of the asset and the environmental factors in which it operates.

Q: How to fadein fadeout images which file names are coming from a database and get always repopulated? I have a jquery array in which are file names of jpg-images are stored.
I split them to a javascript array.
Each record in my database table have different image file names. I am able to update this javascript array whenever I skip the record to next or previous.
How can I, with a button click open a slideshow which use always the current array data (for example "test.jpg", "test2.jpg" and so on)?
I checked a lot in stackoverflow but found no answer.
I have no idea how to start.
the bxslider that was here mentioned, is exact the problem that I have.
Here is the code that makes me problems:

I can not use this code to fill the slideshow, because I need to refill this images always with new values depending which record in the database it is.
Example: My textfield in the database have "file01.jpg ; file02.jpg ; file03.jpg".
Another record have "fruits01.jpg ; fruits02.jpg"
How can I replace this ... img src="/images/pic1.jpg" ... in run time with my values?
I would prefer that the slideshow read the values from a Javascript array.

Viruses explained in exactly 500 words

Louis Pereira
I've had the personal misfortune of experiencing two very different viruses in 2020.
One attacked my computer. The other made me spend a fortnight in isolation.
In today's issue, I'm going to explore the latter.
What is a virus?
A virus is a tiny parasite made up of genetic material and surrounded by a protein shell and lipid membrane.
Scientists have discovered over 2,000 unique viruses that have a total population greater than the number of stars in the universe by a factor of 100 million (if you're wondering what the number is – it's 10 Nonillion).
Viruses are so common that there's a chance you've inhaled a few since you started reading this article. Lucky for you, only 10% of them infect humans.
A Not-So-Fun-Fact
Sometimes, two harmless viruses infect a single cell in an animal, and their genetic materials combine to form a virus that could infect humans.
This is likely how Sars-Cov-2 came to be.
What do viruses do?
Just like other parasites, viruses depend on a host for survival. They invade cells and use their resources to make copies of themselves.
There are two tactics that viruses use to multiply:
The slow and steady: Some viruses integrate their genetic material with that of their host cell. As the host cell creates copies of itself, the virus' genetic material gets copied as well.
The spray and pray: Some viruses multiply within a host cell, causing it to burst open and send viral particles to other host cells in the vicinity.
This multiplication of viral particles continues till the host either dies or manages to defeat the virus.
Often, before the host's death or recovery, the virus is transmitted to a new host, where the entire process of multiplication repeats itself.
If this cycle goes unchecked for too long, countries get locked down, and humans spend Thanksgiving alone.
Good luck finishing that Turkey by yourself.
What makes a virus successful?
If a virus's success is defined by the number of copies it makes, then the most successful viruses are not the deadliest.
A deadly virus would kill a host before transmitting itself to another host, thus shooting itself in the foot.
Successful viruses tread the delicate path between being strong enough to overcome a host's immune system and being weak enough to not kill the host before transmission.
We're just like them.
Of late, viruses have been getting a lot of flak for the trouble they're causing.
But after all, aren't we just like them?
Hear me out.
We've survived for millennia by treading the path between exploiting the earth's resources (bypassing our host's immune system) and allowing them to regenerate (keeping our host alive).
But what if we cross that boundary and over-exploit our host till it is unable to sustain us (i.e. dies)?
Or what if our host gets hit by an asteroid (i.e. murdered)?
What would we do?
Well, we'd have to find a new host.
Don't worry though, Elon has it figured out.
That's it for this week.
Next week, I'm going to be exploring the science of sleep.
If you enjoyed this issue, could you do me a favor & share it with another person?

Jueves negro y viernes de luto son los nombres que recibieron una serie de manifestaciones políticas violentas que ocurrieron los días jueves 24 y viernes 25 de julio de 2003 respectivamente, en la ciudad de Guatemala perpetradas por simpatizantes del Frente Republicano Guatemalteco y su candidato presidencial, Efraín Ríos Montt.

Contexto

En mayo de 2003, el partido político Frente Republicano Guatemalteco (FRG) eligió al ex dictador militar Efraín Ríos Montt como su candidato para las elecciones generales de 2003. Sin embargo, su candidatura fue inicialmente rechazada por el Tribunal Supremo Electoral y por dos tribunales inferiores, por una prohibición constitucional que impide a los ex golpistas aspirar a la presidencia. El 14 de julio de 2003, la Corte de Constitucionalidad, cuyos integrantes habían sido elegidos por el Frente Republicano Guatemalteco, aprobó su candidatura a la presidencia, argumentando que los términos de la Constitución de 1985 no podían aplicarse retroactivamente.

Sin embargo, el 20 de julio, la Corte Suprema de Justicia suspendió su campaña presidencial y acordó escuchar una denuncia presentada por la Unidad Nacional de la Esperanza y el Movimiento Reformador, en la cual se indica que Ríos Montt tenía prohibido constitucionalmente su candidatura a la presidencia del país. Al día siguiente, 21 de julio, Ríos Montt junto a los líderes del FRG y su hija Zury Ríos, denunció el fallo como "manipulación judicial" y, en un discurso radial, llamó indirectamente a la rebelión a sus seguidores, y advirtió que él y su partido no se hacían responsables si las protestas se salían de control.

Desarrollo
El 24 de julio, día conocido como jueves negro, miles de simpatizantes del FRG enmascarados invadieron las calles de la ciudad de Guatemala, armados con machetes, garrotes y pistolas. El FRG los había transportado en autobús desde todo el país en medio de denuncias de que las personas que trabajaban en los municipios controlados por el FRG estaban siendo chantajeadas con el despido si no asistían a la manifestación. Los manifestantes bloquearon el tráfico, corearon consignas amenazantes y agitaron sus machetes.

Fueron liderados por reconocidos militantes del FRG, entre ellos el diputado Jorge Arévalo Valdez, quien fue fotografiado por la prensa a primera hora de la mañana mientras coordinaba las acciones, y una secretaria de Zury Ríos. Un medio de comunicación cita a al menos tres fuentes ligadas al FRG, que aseguran que Zury Ríos fue la «responsable de dirigir» las protestas. Los manifestantes marcharon sobre los tribunales, la sede de los partidos de la oposición y los periódicos, incendiando edificios, disparando ventanas y quemando automóviles y neumáticos en las calles. Un periodista de televisión, Héctor Ramírez, intervino para intentar salvar a un colega que estaba siendo agredido por los manifestantes y estaba a punto de ser linchado; posteriormente Ramírez murió de un infarto mientras huía de la turba. La situación fue tan caótica durante el fin de semana que tanto la misión de la Organización de las Naciones Unidas como la embajada de Estados Unidos estuvieron cerradas. Un diplomático estadounidense dijo en una emisora nacional: "Esto es algo perfectamente organizado. El Frente Republicano Guatemalteco y el Gobierno son responsables de la alteración del orden público". La Policía Nacional Civil no actuó para contener los actos vandálicos, ni tampoco intentó rescatar a más de 900 personas que se encontraban recluidas en un edificio propiedad del empresario Dionisio Gutiérrez, un férreo crítico de Ríos Montt.

Tras los disturbios, la Corte de Constitucionalidad, revocó la decisión de la Corte Suprema, confirmando la afirmación de Ríos Montt de que la prohibición de los golpistas, formalizada en la Constitución de 1985, no podía aplicarse retroactivamente a actos antes de esa fecha. Muchos guatemaltecos expresaron enojo por la decisión de la Corte. La comunidad internacional y los partidos de la oposición condenaron las manifestaciones y los calificaron como un "ataque a la democracia".

Expertos en derecho jurídico de Guatemala coincidieron en que los líderes del Frente Republicano Guatemalteco y sus manifestantes pudieron haber incurrido hasta en 34 delitos, mientras que el gobierno de Guatemala pudo haber incurrido en 12 delitos.

El presidente francés Jacques Chirac expresó su preocupación por la inscripción de Ríos Montt.

Consecuencias
El general Ríos Montt pasó a ocupar el tercer lugar en la votación presidencial de noviembre, detrás de Álvaro Colom y Óscar Berger.

Se presentaron cargos penales contra siete miembros del FRG por su participación en la incitación al motín y el homicidio de Ramírez: el propio  Ríos Montt; Ingrid Elaine Argueta Sosa, su sobrina; Waleska Sánchez Velásquez, secretaria de Zury Ríos; Jorge Arévalo, diputado del Congreso; y Raúl Manchamé Leiva, exdirector de la Policía Nacional Civil. Los cargos contra el general Ríos Montt fueron desestimados en enero de 2006. El único condenado fue el ex director de la Policía Nacional Civil.

Controversias
Durante las elecciones generales de 2019, Zury Ríos afirmó en una entrevista radial que Héctor Fernando Ramírez, el periodista fallecido durante las protestas, era «miembro y simpatizante del FRG». El hijo de Ramírez indicó que las afirmaciones de Ríos eran falsas y le exigió una disculpa.

Days after an anonymous political group, the Foundation for a Secure and Prosperous America (FSPA), launched a million dollar ad campaign slamming Rand Paul's foreign policy credentials in early primary states, a lawyer for Paul's campaign committee fired off notices to local TV stations demanding they no longer air the "false and misleading" advertisement — or risk losing their license.
Organized as a nonprofit social welfare group, FSPA's donors are not subject to public scrutiny as those of a super PAC would be.
The early ad blitz is aimed at softening support for Paul in the states where he will need it most: Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina. It hits the prospective Republican nominee just days after the Kentucky senator made his presidential campaign official.
According to Matthew Sanderson, general counsel to Rand Paul for President, the message obscures the candidate's true stance on the Iran negotiations, and, he claims, could result in legal liability for any station that airs it. Reached by phone, Sanderson would not comment on the record for this article.
Senator Paul has been a consistent, vocal critic of President Obama's apparent preference for an impotent negotiation strategy and sanctions-free dealings with Iran … Unlike some members of the Establishment, Senator Paul does believe that diplomacy-through-strength can lead to a a peaceful and independently verified dismantling of Iran's nuclear program. But he does not in any way support the Obama Administration's weak negotiation tactics.
Unfortunately for the Paul campaign, it looks like the takedown move has failed, at least in Asheville and KCCI in Des Moines, where we spoke with a station manager regarding the ad. Public documents from WLOS, the Asheville station, show that Barry Faber, vice president of Sinclair Broadcast Group, which owns the station, ultimately decided the ad would run as scheduled.
Sunlight only learned of the takedown letter because WLOS posted the document publicly in its FCC public political file, which is compiled by Sunlight's Political Ad Sleuth. We can't say for certain how many stations the campaign went after.
For a dissection of the ad and its claims read Thursday's piece in USA Today by FactCheck.org's Robert Farley.


for almost 3 months i was not able to write anything for this blog because i was to focused and too committed over something that i truly love to do. it was also a life long dream that finally happened. so what was i doing? where was i?
yes! i trained for 3 months for Globe's pep squad for the Once-every-4-year Ayala Olympics. after 7 long years i was back into this sport, and added bonuse was that, now, i was under training w/ my ultimate idol pep squad – THE UP pep squad!
This was not part of my plans at all, just one day i saw the audition add, and it happend i had an extra shirt w/ me that day so i went to the venue, just to 'check it out'. when i entered, i saw this beauiful petite lady (w/c happened to be our coach) wearing a black shirt w/ 'UP Pep Thanderz" printed on it. i said to myself, 'it na talaga to, UP pep na! bahala na kung nakamaong ako magaudition ako'… and the rest, as they say, was history.
it was a tatak UP training from conditioning to skills training up to the final run. and i say it was HARD. draining both physically and emotionally, but it was all worth it. kahit sobrang nakakapagod i'd gladly do it again. i learned so much from the training… patience, perseverance and goal setting were one major values i truly put into heart during this once in a lifetime experience.
and since im done w/ this, i'll just give myself about a week's rest and i'll be back w/ my 'normal' life again lol.
next stop: cont. of my Bicol series and i will start my Puertto Galera entries after.

U.S. Federal Reserve Says Stablecoins Might Aid Financial Stability
Mike Dalton
Stablecoins were endorsed by the U.S. Federal Reserve, but there's a catch.
Press Release 1 hour ago
The U.S. Federal Reserve published its latest Financial Stability Report and its assessment of stablecoins is surprisingly positive.
Stablecoins as a class include dollar-pegged cryptocurrencies like Tether, which are backed by traditional assets. Though the Reserve doesn't drop names, it is mainly concerned with stablecoins that have global relevance.
The report is surprisingly optimistic: it suggests that stablecoins could provide a "new medium of exchange," a complement to existing payment systems, and a solution to crypto price volatility. But although the Federal Reserve admits that stablecoins have potential, it warns that stablecoins could have unintended consequences.
Global Stablecoins Must Follow Regulations
The report emphasizes the importance of design. It notes that a poorly designed global stablecoin network "could pose risks to financial stability." Without effective redemption, settlement, and risk management, stablecoins could lead to a "loss of confidence" and mass liquidation, which could harm economic activity in various ways.
On top of this, the report notes that stablecoin issuers, operators, and intermediaries must comply with regulations. These groups must prevent money laundering, terrorism, and other criminal activity through their policies. They must also protect consumers against fraud and ensure that consumers know their holding rights, among other things.
Moreover, the Reserve says that it is working with other regulators to ensure that up-and-coming stablecoins address core legal and regulatory challenges. It adds that a G7 Working Group on Stablecoins expressed similar goals. That said, these concerns only apply to global stablecoins — they presumably exclude minor coins.
Are Stablecoins Ready for Prime Time?
Though the Federal Reserve hasn't endorsed or disavowed any stablecoins, some coins clearly face more challenges than others. For instance, Tether found itself at the center of a lawsuit from the New York Attorney General's office in April (and a more recent class action suit). Another coin, Basis, shut down due to regulatory issues in 2018.
The Federal Reserve briefly mentions Facebook's Libra coin in a positive light, noting that it is one stablecoin with "the potential to rapidly achieve adoption." However, this might not mean much, as U.S. Congress has been hard on Libra during hearings. Those hearings also led Congress to introduce a bill that would regulate stablecoins as securities.
Perhaps other stablecoins will fare better. Some plans seem promising: JPM Coin is being built by one of the world's biggest financial institutions and TrueUSD is focusing on regulatory compliance. However, it's too soon to say whether the Federal Reserve and other government bodies will warm up to stablecoins ― now or ever.
