The 3 sisters refer to the Native American method of growing Corn, Beans, and Squash together on mounds of compost. Double rows of corn can be bordered with bean or pea crops on alternating hills. I'll be going into more depth on the cultivation of these crops later on in the series. The wide leaves of the Squash plant shade the root system, adding mulch and retaining moisture for the roots of the Bean and Corn plants. The 4th sister is Sunflower; an extension of Corn, Bean can also climb Sunflower while she makes huge heads of seed used for food and especially oil. Nettle, Elderberry, and Buckwheat are my own additions to the cast of companions and I will be sharing their stories over the coming days.
Annual – arrow shaped leaves, flowers in corymb, coloured white to pink, summer flowering. Stems measuring 30-90cm. Cultivated everywhere, at times rigourously reseeding itself for multiple harvests.
Surprise! Buckwheat is not even technically a wheat, and is related more closely to sorrel, knotweed, and rhubarb. The seeds contain starch, sugar, gum and a good source of lysine, Vitamin B complex, phosphorus, magnesium, iron, copper, manganese, and zinc.
Buckwheat flour can be a bit heavy for bread but can be incorporated into rustic and gluten-free loaves. Add slightly more water to the mix (or less flour) and let the water and flour sit for a few minutes before proceeding to the next step.
The groats made a hearty, porridge-like hot cereal. Where it is popular in Russia and Ukraine it is kasha.
Galettes or pancakes made with the dark flour are baked on stovetops and served with butter, maple syrup, and berry coulees.
In Japanese culture, the soba noodle is made with the dough and are the base of many dishes.
Buckwheat honey is deep, dark, and rich like only buckwheat honey can be. Best enjoyed where honey is the focal point, such as on toast as opposed to being an ingredient in a baked dish.
In beer, Buckwheat is used in the place of barley to create a base to add to the fermentation process.
High amounts of rutin strengthens and maintains capillary health. According to Maude Grieve, an infusion of the herb was used as an eye wash for its astringent properties.
Buckwheat is not generally used as a medicinal herb in the treatment of disorders but is likely an element to disease prevention in the form of fresh, nutrient dense plant food.
To be used as a green manure in a crop rotational plan. Green manures are key to fertilizing the soil in permaculture design. The seed is black, tetrahedral, enclosed within a hull. Generally the hull must be removed prior to consumption, both for humans and for animals, although I've not witnessed any effects from ducks breaking into a buckwheat pasture and stripping every stalk clean of leaf and seed.
Sow in the spring or summer at the rate of 2-3lb/1,000sqft. Accumulates phosphorus.
Sensitive to frost though seeds will remain viable if overwintered.
Flowers attract a wide range of insect species, especially bees. Makes for excellent feed for partridge & poultry. The french name of "pig herb" associates that buckwheat also makes for excellent in feed mix for pigs and cattle. In the pasture, the buckwheat makes for excellent feed for sheep and cattle.
Buckwheat grows quickly and is often used to choke out weeds in newly tilled or disturbed soil. Incorporating buckwheat into a regular crop rotational pattern or in between rows is an easy way to trap nitrogen and phosphorus in the soil to release to the surrounding area.
As the seeds of the Buckwheat must be hulled for consumption to take place, there is an unlikely market for this by-product. Buckwheat hulls have been used in upholstery, especially in the making of pillow and mattresses for at least 600 years. They are said to help eliminate stress and anxiety by providing a more comfortable support while sleeping, keeping the head warm in the winter, and cool in the summer.
Decoctions of the whole herb have been used in folk treatments for urinary disorders.
The signature of the knots in the plant were applied to the treatment of swollen joints and arthritic disorders. Companion :: Jewelweed Impatiens capensis.
Buckwheat takes her place in the 7 Sisters as being the alpha and the omega. By preparing and closing cultivated garden beds with buckwheat, the soil is nourished and covered, preventing unwanted plants from encroaching into production space. Newly tilled or opened garden can be broadcast seeded with buckwheat early in the season, before the 3 Sisters are planted to prepare growing mounds for rotational production.

Think Again IV: How to Avoid Fallacies
デューク大学(Duke University)
Introduction to Logic and Critical Thinking 専門講座 における 4 の 4 コース
We encounter fallacies almost everywhere we look. Politicians, salespeople, and children commonly use fallacies in order to get you to think whatever they want you to think. It's important to learn to recognize fallacies so that you can avoid being fooled by them. It's also important to learn about fallacies so that you avoid making fallacious arguments yourself. This course will show you how to identify and avoid many of the fallacies that lead people astray. In this course, you will learn about fallacies. Fallacies are arguments that suffer from one or more common but avoidable defects: equivocation, circularity, vagueness, etc. It's important to learn about fallacies so that you can recognize them when you see them, and not be fooled by them. It's also important to learn about fallacies so that you avoid making fallacious arguments yourself. Suggested Readings Students who want more detailed explanations or additional exercises or who want to explore these topics in more depth should consult Understanding Arguments: An Introduction to Informal Logic, Ninth Edition, Concise, Chapters 13-17, by Walter Sinnott-Armstrong and Robert Fogelin. Course Format Each week will be divided into multiple video segments that can be viewed separately or in groups. There will be short ungraded quizzes after each segment (to check comprehension) and a longer graded quiz at the end of the course.
This course will be immensely helpful in structuring my thoughts in a logical and manner by addressing pertinent material and avoiding fallacy traps. Thank you so much!!!
This was a nice course. Covers many fallacies in detail. Practice exercises are good. More fallacies could have been covered though. Overall, I did love the course.
Fallacies of Relevance
CONTENT: This week describes two of the most common fallacies that people make: ad hominem fallacies and appeals to authority. Part of what makes these fallacies so common, and so difficult to avoid, is that many ad hominem arguments, and many appeals to authority, are actually not fallacies at all! Only some of them are. And figuring out which of them are fallacies is more of an art than a science. There is no simple recipe, but there are some rules of thumb you can use. We hope that the practice that you get in this week will help you to improve your skills at distinguish the fallacious from the non-fallacious instances of ad hominem reasoning, as well as appeal to authority. LEARNING OUTCOMES: By the end of this section you will be able to: determine whether an ad hominem argument is a fallacy determine whether an appeal to authority is a fallacy OPTIONAL READING: If you want more examples or more detailed discussions of these topics, we recommend Understanding Arguments, Ninth Edition, Chapter 15.

In the last class, we talked about ad hominem arguments. And we distinguished three varieties of ad hominem arguments. Today we're going to talk about the first variety of those three, the variety that we call silencers. Now I should point out that while ad hominem arguments are typically fallacies, not all of them are fallacies. And the same holds true of silencers. While silencers are typically fallacies, not all of them are fallacies. So what I'm going to do today is first give a definition of silencers, then give some examples of silencers that are not fallacies. And finally, we'll talk about silencers that are fallacies, which are the most common kind of silencers. Okay, so first, what's a silencer? Well, a silencer is an ad hominem argument, that begins with some premises about a particular person, who's making a point. And it ends with a conclusion to the effect that we should disregard that person's argument all together. The conclusion is not the person's argument is an argument for a false conclusion, or their premises are false, or their premises don't support their conclusion. The conclusion is just, we shouldn't pay any attention to their argument at all. Now, I can give a couple of examples of silencers that are actually good arguments, that are not fallacies. But in order to give these examples I have to describe environments that tend to operate in a very strictly regulated framework. So, I'll start by giving some examples of silencers that are not fallacies, and then we'll look at silencers that are fallacies. So, first, here's a silencer that's not a fallacy. So suppose that you're in a court of law, during a criminal trial, and the accused is on the witness stand. The person who's accused of some heinous crimes is on the witness stand. Let's say the accused is has been accused of murder. And as always, the defense gets to call some witnesses and the prosecution gets to call some witnesses and there's a procedure that governs the progress of criminal trials. Right, criminal trials operate according to a certain procedure. Now, suppose that someone bursts into the room, someone who hasn't been called by either the defense or the prosecution, someone bursts into the room and then yells at the top of their lungs, I saw the accused murder the victim. Therefore, the accused is guilty of the crime with which she is charged. Okay, now this person who's just burst into the courtroom and presented this argument. This person might be presenting an argument that's sound, indeed it might be that the person saw the accused murder the victim. And it might be that the accused is guilty of the crime with which she is charged. So the argument that's being presented by the intruder, the person who bursts into the courtroom, might be a perfectly sound argument, but that doesn't mean we should listen to it. In fact, at least in American criminal trials, it's very likely that the judge would instruct the jury to disregard the outburst in the courtroom because that has not been presented as evidence by either the prosecution or the defense. Criminal trials have to operate according to a certain procedure. If the procedure is violated then a mistrial is declared. Or there has to be some way of fixing the violation of the procedure. And for someone to just burst in to the courtroom, not called there by either the prosecution or the defense, and to yell out that they saw the accused murder the victim, and therefore, the accused really is guilty of the crime with which he is charged. Well, the argument that they're giving might be sound, it might be the premise is true and the conclusion, and, of course, the premise supports the conclusion. But that doesn't mean we should listen to it. In fact the jury will very likely be specifically instructed to disregard the outburst. So there is an example of the silencer that is not a fallacy if I say the outburst was inappropriate and violates the procedure of the criminal trial therefore we should disregard it. Right. There I'm giving an argument. The argument is a silencer. It starts off with a premise about the person who made the outburst namely that their making the outburst was in violation of the procedure of the criminal trial and it ends with a conclusion to the effect that we should disregard their argument. So what I've just given right now is a silencer but that's a silencer that's actually a good argument. In that context we should ignore the outburst. Okay, or certainly the jury should ignore the outburst. Okay, so that's an example of a silencer that's not a fallacy. It's a good argument. Here's another example of a silencer that's not a fallacy. So suppose in a particular session of our national legislature, a bill, a proposed law is being debated by different legislators. And suppose someone bursts into the legislative assembly, and, makes the following outburst. This bill will throw millions of working citizens into dire poverty. Any bill that throws millions of working citizens into dire poverty should not be passed into law, and therefore this bill should not be passed into law. Now again, it's possible, let's suppose, that the argument that this person is giving is a sound argument. It's possible that the premises are both true and that the conclusion is true. And that the premises support the conclusion. But even if it's a sound argument, given the way legislative sessions are supposed to operate, we shouldn't listen to the argument that this person has given, because the way they gave it violates the protocol of legislative sessions. Right, so I might argue as follows. I might say, this person's outburst violates the protocol of our legislative session, therefore we must disregard their argument. That's an example of a silencer. And yet, it's not a bad argument. It very well might be true, given the rules governing legislative activity, that we do need to disregard this outburst. That doesn't mean that we don't need to think about the considerations that the person adduced. We might need to think about the considerations that the person adduced. But that would be for other reasons than that the person that adduced them. So this is an example of a silencer that's actually a good argument. It's a good argument for the conclusion that we should ignore the outburst that the person made into the legislative session. Okay, so now I've given a couple of examples of silencers that are good arguments. But notice, these silencers occur in very special circumstances, let's say, during a criminal trial or during a legislative session. During some occasion that's governed by a bunch of procedural rules and regulations. But ordinary life isn't like that. In ordinary life, our conversations aren't governed by that thick network of procedural rules and regulations. Of course, there are rules and regulations that govern ordinary conversation, rules and regulations concerning etiquette, you know, being reasonably polite and considerate to one another. Those rules and regulations are few enough and far between that we still leave room for people outside our conversation to burst out with consideration. But those regulations are not as many and not as complicated as the rules and regulations that govern legal proceedings and legislative sessions. In ordinary life when do we encounter silencers? Well, often we encounter silencers of a following form. We will encounter a silencer to the effect that we shouldn't listen to someone's argument, because after all, that person has a criminal record. Or we shouldn't listen to someone's argument, because after all, that person is a philanderer. Or we shouldn't listen to someone's argument, because after all, we all know what that person is like. That person is, that person's just weird and so we just shouldn't listen to their argument. So, often in ordinary life we encounter silencers that are fallacies. They tell us not to listen to the argument that a person is giving, not because that argument, the act that they performed of giving that argument, violates the strict rules and regulations governing our proceedings. We shouldn't listen to their argument because that person is weird, or that person has a, has some event in their history that should make us look askance at them. Now, those silencers typically are fallacies and yet those are the kinds of silencers that we find most commonly in everyday life. Okay. So, that's our discussion of silencers. Next time, we'll talk about dismissers. See you next time.

O'Keeffe's Working Hands is a unique formulation of moisturizing ingredients guaranteed to improve the health of your skin.
Water is necessary for the survival of each and every cell in the body. The layers of your skin contain very high contents of water. Skin cells require water to function properly and effectively as our boyd's first line of defense. When skin cells become dehydrated, or lose a portion of their water content, they lose their elasticity and our skin feels dry and rigid. This can lead to dry skin, split hands and cracked feet. These cracks are essentially breaks in the protective barrier between our bodies and the outside world. Cracked skin can no longer defend our bodies against invasion by foreign organisms and bacteria. The invaders can enter our bodies through the cracks in our skin, and therefore can lead to inflammation and/or infection.
People with dry, cracked, split feet try everything. Even prescription therapies,and nothing really seems to work. Finally there's relief. Nothing works faster, or more effectively, to protect and heal cracked, split skin.
Healthy Feet is water-based and contains Glycerin, which attracts and retains moisture within the skin. This moisture is necessary for the skin's healing process. O'Keeffe's Healthy Feet contains a higher concentration of Allantoin to allow better penetration through the tough, thick skin of the feet. Allantoin works to remove dead skin cells and thus improve absorption of moisturizing ingredients. This FDA approved skin-protectant also helps to guard the skin from damaging friction often experienced by feet.

The positive (minimal) realization problem for a class of singular discrete-time linear single-input, single-output systems with delays in state and delays in control is addressed. Solvability conditions for the positive (minimal) realization problem are established. It is shown that there exists a positive (minimal) realization of an improper transfer function T(z) = n(z) / d(z) if the coefficients of polynomial n(z) are non-negative and of the polynomial d(z) are non-positive except the leading one, which should be positive. A procedure for computation of the positive (minimal) realization of the transfer function is proposed and illustrated by an example.

Have you ever asked the question "what is character education" and wondered whether it is something that is important, or relevant to you? It can be described this way: "a deliberate and conscious effort to learn and develop virtues, and values, that are good for you and good for society." So yes, it is important. And, it's something to be aware of as you raise your children.
Most people agree that academic achievement is important. But character development is equally important, if not more so. Even if a child doesn't do well academically, their character will still determine how well they do in life.
Helping to promote the well-being of an individual, as well as society.
Being clear to ourselves about our rights and obligations.
Treating people in the way you would wish to be treated.
Behaving in a way, in a given situation, in which you would wish all people to behave given the same set of circumstances.
When someone describes another person, they do so by describing their character. That person's character is defined by a certain set of qualities, habits or attributes which they possess, and by which they are judged.
Children naturally want their days to be filled with happiness, fun, and playfulness. Unfortunately, not all children achieve these wants and grow up having negative thoughts and beliefs about themselves and the world.
The good news is that with the right training, these negative thoughts and beliefs can be changed and children can learn to develop positive beliefs about themselves. They can also start to experience feelings of optimism about their future and their life.
This type of education gives kids a chance to grow up into happy, well-adjusted, well-rounded adults. They will be able to deal with everyday situations in a positive manner which is beneficial to themselves and those around them.

We don't currently have a scheme for part time students to live "on campus". If you intend to study part time then you should arrange for your own room and board in Waterford City.
While you will get no official credit for auditing a class, if you meet all of the requirements — assignments, papers, tests, etc. — then you will be given a tentative grade and may be able to upgrade to a full credit class in the future by paying the difference in price.
Please keep in mind that a class may be closed for auditing at the discretion of the school for various reasons.
Audit students must contact the school and register for each class a minimum of two weeks before the first day of classes begin.
Housing: provided for the duration of the semester, including a warm blanket (duvet and cover), pillow, and pillow case.
Meals: a meal budget and necessary cookware and eating utensils are provided for the duration of the semester. Students will use this budget to purchase and cook meals for themselves.

Internet: provided at the classroom(s) and library.
Transportation: if you arrive on the pre-arranged arrival date then your transportation from the Dublin International Airport to Waterford is included.
Visa: if you are from an EU or EEA country then there is no visa or stamp requirement. If you are from a non-EU/EEA country (like the U.S.), and are only staying for one term, then we have arranged with the local immigration to allow you to study on a standard 90-day visitor's visa/stamp, which does not cost anything.
Books: we will provide a list of necessary books so that those traveling from outside Ireland may have the opportunity to purchase them and bring them. The books normally used in our classes are very difficult to get in Ireland so we require students from the U.S. to bring them. We will work with local students and those unable to bring the appropriate books with them. Please be sure to budget at least €100 for books in each term.
Visa: if you are a non-EU/EEA citizen and planning on attending for more than one term then plan on a minimum of €300 ($400) for a temporary visa/residence permit. This must be communicated with and approved by the school in advance.

Some U.S.-based medical insurances have temporary coverage for outside of the U.S. Temporary medical insurance for travelers is widely available on the internet as well. Please take care to research and procure the appropriate insurance before coming. The nation of Ireland WILL NOT cover your medical expenses for you, and will not allow you into the country to study without sufficient evidence that you are covered (nor will this school). Based on some of the experiences of staff as missionaries in various countries we can mention some insurance providers used in the past. These are not recommendations, only names of known travel insurance providers: IMG (International Medical Group), Seven Corners, Clements Worldwide. We have seen policies as low as $100 for one full term (three months).
Key Deposit: this is €10 and payable at the same time as tuition. It will be returned with the safe return of the key(s) at the end of the term. For each key lost you will forfeit the €10 deposit and owe another deposit upon receipt of the new key(s).

Pacers coach Vogel on Lance Stephenson's antics: 'I don't think it's ever good to tug on Superman's cape'
By Brett PollakoffMay 31, 2014, 8:00 AM EDT
Over the course of the majority of the first half of the season, Lance Stephenson's improved play was a huge reason that the Pacers got off to such a strong start. He was a triple-double threat on seemingly a nightly basis, and played under control and within his team's system.
By the time Indiana's season was over following Friday's blowout Game 6 loss to the Heat in the Eastern Conference Finals, Stephenson had gone rogue, and had resorted to tactics that had little to do with basketball in the final two games of the series.
Pacers president Larry Bird condemned Stephenson's odd decision to blow in the ear of LeBron James in Game 5, and head coach Frank Vogel expressed a similar sentiment following the whole host of things that Stephenson tried to do to mess with his opponent in Game 6.
"It's tough to say," Vogel said, when asked if Stephenson's antics hurt more than they helped. "I don't think it's ever good … what's everybody call it? Tug on Superman's cape. I don't think that's ever good. But I'll take Lance Stephenson's competitive edge. Like I said, I just don't think it's good to tug on the cape."
Heat coach Erik Spoelstra wouldn't even discuss Stephenson afterward, saying only, "We're playing for something much bigger than that guy" when the subject was broached.
Stephenson showed he can play this year, and could be a real asset to a team with the right amount of veteran leadership in the locker room capable of keeping him in check. He also showed why general managers around the league will be extremely leery of handing him a high-dollar, long-term contract in free agency this summer.

Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram says he's "pretty close" to resuming normal workouts
METAIRIE, La. (AP) — Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram says he's "pretty close" to resuming normal workouts as he continues to recover from surgery to address a blood clot in his right arm.
Ingram says he has not resumed shooting, but has worked on his shooting form while also conducting ball-handling and passing drills, as well as lower-body workouts.
Ingram did not give a specific timeline for his return to full basketball activities with the Pelicans, the team to which the Lakers traded him this offseason as part of a multi-player and multi-draft pick deal for six-time All-Star Anthony Davis.
Ingram spoke about his health on Tuesday during formal introductions at Pelicans headquarters for him and three other new players: guard Lonzo Ball, swing player Josh Hart, and center Derrick Favors.
Ball and Hart also were part of the Davis trade. Favors was traded by Utah to New Orleans.
Ingram was averaging 18.3 points and 5.1 rebounds last season before he was diagnosed with deep venous thrombosis in early March.

Сортировка спайков (от ) или классификация нейронных потенциалов действия — совокупность алгоритмов и методов для обнаружения и классификации потенциалов действия (ПД) различных нейронов при внеклеточной регистрации их электрической активности. Изучение функций нейронов и их участия в процессах высшей нервной деятельности определяет необходимость достоверных измерений активности каждого конкретного нейрона.

Большинство существующих в настоящее время методов сортировки нейрональных спайков позволяют классифицировать их источники и, таким образом, изолировать отдельные нейроны с достаточно высокой точностью. Такие методы обычно сложны и трудоемки, связаны с эмпирическим подбором различных значений, требуют определенных математических знаний и наличия практического опыта, что часто сказывается на объективности результатов и невозможности их использования в режиме реального времени.

Автоматизированные, соответственно, быстрые (online) способы сортировки спайков также известны. Однако, они не так точны, как предыдущие, и имеют множество недостатков как в обнаружении спайков, так и в их классификации.

Решение данной проблемы и создание высокоточного и, в то же время, полностью автоматизированного и быстрого метода сортировки спайков является серьёзной проблемой современной нейрофизиологии и компьютерной медицины, решение которой позволит одновременно регистрировать большие популяции нейронов, что, в свою очередь, будет способствовать пониманию механизмов работы мозга в целом.

Sports Inquisitor has returned to business as usual. We have rounded up all the latest sports news in the world and brought you the ones you need to know about. Read the article below to find out what is going on in the world of cycling, football, and formula one.
CYCLING.
LATEST SPORTS NEWS: TOUR DE FRANCE TO BEGIN IN AUGUST.
The Tour de France will start on 29 August, with the Giro d'Italia and Vuelta a Espana overlapping during October, the UCI has announced. Cycling's three Grand Tour races are part of a packed schedule across just over three months from 1 August. The Tour de France – pushed back from June – had been cast into doubt when the French government said it was "not sure" the country would be ready.

France last week extended a ban on mass gatherings until September. That was because of the coronavirus pandemic, and French sports minister Roxana Maracineanu cast questions over the Tour de France's viability for 2020 when she said on Tuesday: "We do not know what the epidemic will be like after lockdown." The Tour had been scheduled to run from 27 June to 19 July originally; that start date was pushed back last week by the UCI, world cycling's governing body. It will stick with that adjusted schedule, starting on 29 August and ending on 20 September.
PREMIER LEAGUE MAY BE PLAYED IN 80 MINUTES.
Professional Footballers' Association chief executive Gordon Taylor has suggested halves of less than 45 minutes could be considered when football resumes. Discussions about the Premier League's return are ongoing but Taylor says players are "concerned" about safety. "They are not stupid," he told BBC Radio 4's Today program. "They would have to be satisfied that it is safe." The Premier League said the idea is "not on the table".
Football League chairman Rick Parry said "there haven't been any discussions about it", but did tell a Department of Digital, Culture, Media, and Sport committee hearing: "I don't think we should be ruling out any creative ideas." The Premier League is hopeful of a potential 8 June resumption. No set date has been given for the EFL, but Parry said the current season must be concluded by July 31.
LATEST SPORTS NEWS: ENGLAND AND SCOTLAND PLAYERS MAKE CONTRIBUTIONS TO NHS.
The England men's team have made a "significant donation" to the NHS, using match fees dating back to September 2018. The move comes in conjunction with the #PlayersTogether movement involving Premier League players. Last month England women announced they would donate to the fund.
The Scotland men's and women's teams have also made a "substantial donation", joining England's men in giving to NHS Charities Together. The donations come with the NHS on the frontline in Britain during the global coronavirus pandemic. "We stand united as England players behind the nation during this crisis," the players said in a statement. "Our collective prayers and thoughts remain with all those affected."
BARCELONA PLAYERS TO BE TESTED BEFORE SEASON RESUMES.
Barcelona players will be tested for Covid-19 at the club's training ground on Wednesday before resuming individual work "in the coming days". La Liga teams have been given permission to return to training this week following the easing of some restrictions by the government. Barca says the league "gave the go-ahead" for testing after inspecting the facilities at their training ground. La Liga organizers are aiming for a June restart to the season.

Players from the top two divisions will train individually after an agreement with Spain's sports and health authorities that guaranteed the safety of both players and staff. Football in Spain was suspended indefinitely in March amid the coronavirus pandemic and all players must be tested before they can return to training facilities.
LATEST SPORTS NEWS: PREMIER LEAGUE RETURN WILL LIFT THE SPIRIT OF THE NATION.
The United Kingdom's foreign secretary confirmed talks regarding the return of professional sports have been held with relevant bodies Discussions relating to the return of Premier League football have been held in "constructive meetings", according to the United Kingdom government's foreign secretary Dominic Raab.
"I think it would lift the spirit of the nation," Raab said in the government's daily briefing on Tuesday. "I think people would like to see us get back not just to work and get to a stage where children can safely return to school but also enjoy pastimes, sporting in particular.
I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO CONVINCE A PLAYER TO KOIN ARSENAL SAYS ATERTA.
Arsenal head coach Mikel Arteta has said he is only interested in recruiting players who don't have to be convinced to play for the Gunners. The north London side has been linked with several players in the transfer market, though the coronavirus pandemic is likely to limit the amount they will be able to spend. Celtic forward Odsonne Edouard is one of the players tipped to move to Arsenal as are Ryan Fraser and Willian, who will be free agents when the 2019-20 season ends.

FORMULA ONE.
LATEST SPORTS NEWS: FORMULA ONE BOSSES MAKE FINAL BUDGET TO TEAMS.
Formula 1 bosses have made the last offer to teams of a sliding scale budget cap reducing from $145m to $130m over the next three years. The proposal is part of changes aimed at addressing the financial impact of the coronavirus in a letter to teams from F1 managing director Ross Brawn. F1 has proposed a cap of $145m (£116m) in 2021, reducing to $140m in 2022 and $135m for the period 2023-25. Teams will spend the coming days assessing the ideas before a vote.
The proposals – which also include a sliding scale of allowance for aerodynamic research according to a team's success, and compensation for the manufacturer teams recognizing the value of research and development of parts sold to customers – are billed as a final submission after weeks of negotiations ended in impasse last month.

Schön! Magazine
Developer: Magzter Inc.

seeking duckie brown
Hard to believe it's already been twelve years since Steven Cox and Daniel Silver shepherded their very first collection down the runway in 2001, giving the world its first jolt of Duckie Brown's pinks, greens, and sequined briefs with built-in gloves and fake urine stains. Nothing about Duckie Brown is not eccentric or quirky, and so why then should its founders be anything other?
Cox and Silver, a real-life couple, first met twenty-one years ago in Fire Island. It takes but seconds to witness this is a special love; for each other, for the clothing they together create. After mega-successful collaborations with distinguished brands like Perry Ellis and Florsheim, the brand they together created is shaking things up once again, and this time, the ladies are invited along.
Schön! sat down with the charismatic duo to talk fashion, Wednesday night couples counselling, Miley, most stylish cities, and figuring out what a Duckie Brown truly is.
Let's start off with an easy one, where did the name Duckie Brown come from?
Daniel: Duckie is an endearment that we've always called each other, and when it came to naming the collection, we just thought, 'Duckie, what do you want to call the collection?' And of course it was going to be Duckie. Then we added Brown because we thought it anchored the name and made it seem a little more usual because Duckie is so unusual.
Steven: There is some very, very untraditional stuff about Duckie Brown which is the Duckie side and also a very, very traditional side that is based in traditional menswear tailoring, and that's really the Brown side.
What's it like working with your partner on a day-to-day basis?
Daniel: It's horrible and wonderful and great and frustrating. All of the above. It's great when it's great and it's not when it's not.
Steven: We go to couples therapy every Wednesday at 6PM and that's perfect; that's what we need. If anything happens within work and we're arguing we'll kind-of look at each other — we don't have a code word — but it's a look where we decide to shelve that and discuss it at therapy. It's like any couple: there are incredibly good days and there are incredibly bad days, but I think the highs outweigh the lows, and we generally get on really well. And we're a good team.
I read that you use the last Italian hand-tailored jacket factory in the U.S. — Why is this important to you both?
Steven: There's a very, very tailored feeling in our collections and I wanted that to be. We always start with what the shoulder's going to be, what the silhouette of the coat's going to be. We wanted that workmanship and that craftsmanship that a lot of factory's don't do, particularly men's because men's is a dying business unfortunately. And that kind of tailored thing is very difficult to get a hold of, particularly in America. It's much more Italian or much more English. And we wanted it to be in America because we wanted to control it and we didn't, or we don't, have the money to keep going backwards and forwards to England or to Italy. And Long Island City and Greenpointe are the closest we could find.
Daniel: Really it's about making the most beautiful of something. And that's where you get the most beautiful jackets and coats made.
Has the Duckie Brown aesthetic changed at all in the twelve years of existence?
Daniel: I don't think the aesthetic has changed, I think maybe it's matured. And I think what we do is growing in terms of the silhouette and the shapes that we are doing. But I think the essence has always been the same because it's always been us, and that remains a constant from the first collection we ever did to the collection we're doing now for Fall '14.
Steven: I think when you first start a collection you don't know what it is and you have doubts and insecurities about what you're doing and when we started it — I was 34 — I was not as confident as I am now — now I'm 46. I think the collection reflects that. We work with a stylist now who edits us and I think I've become a better stylist as a designer. I'm not a stylist, though, I'm a designer. I think it's become much more, slick is not the right word, focused, we've become more focused.
Daniel: But do you think our aesthetic has changed since day one?
Steven: When I look back at our first collections I see that…
Daniel: The aesthetic. The aesthetic. Just the aesthetic. That's what he's asking.
Steven: Oh…
Daniel: I don't think it has. I mean look at us, we still have the kind of fabrications that we love from the very first collection.
Steven: Yeah, it's just that we've gotten wiser. I would say the aesthetic has changed for the better.
Daniel: Maybe the answer is that the aesthetic has grown and matured.
Steven: When I first started, I didn't know what a Duckie Brown was, twelve years later I know what a Duckie Brown is.
Glad we resolved that. Now, what do you make of the intersection between fashion and social media?
Daniel: Social media just gets the message out there even more. People are either chatting or looking at images, which is really what a fashion show is all about. We have a Tumblr and an Instagram and Facebook and all that stuff, and it's great to be able to interact with people and to let people in and see what we do on a day-to-day basis. I think it's all great. And I think it's kind of sad as well. There's so much coming at people, so quickly, a glutton of information, that it's become hard for people to make their way through it all.
Steven: When I moved to NY in '91 I didn't have a laptop, I didn't have an iPad, I didn't have a cell phone. When I was in school we didn't use the computer, so I kind of feel like a Grandaddy sometimes because I don't have a natural talent for all of what you do on Instagram and Tumblr. I struggled with that for many years because I don't really use the computer. I use a pencil. I do a sketch. That comes naturally to me because that's what I learned in school. Sometimes I wish I was a little younger and used these things in a better way. But we use people that are good at what they're good at, so we have a younger person doing our Instagram and our Tumblr because we can't do it. We don't know how to.
Who's the best dressed celebrity of the moment?
Daniel: The best dressed celebrity of the moment, Oh God.
Steven: The first person that comes to mind for me is Miley Cyrus.
Daniel: Me too, Ducky.
Steven: I don't necessarily like all of that Wrecking Ball video, but the actual image of it is kind-of beautiful, having her naked on that ball with just her Dr Martens on. Which for me is an incredible inspiration for Duckie Brown. The Dr Martens are something that I went to school with, that I wear a lot, and there's a memory there. Men's wise, I don't know about men's, but Miley Cyrus: She's stylish, she's like a style icon, but I mean she's got nothing on in that video, so… I don't know. There's something about her that I like.
What city has the best style?
Daniel: I would say Tokyo.
Steven: I like the way London boys dress, but that's because I'm English.
Daniel: Yeah, but London boys look great in their suits and they look really sharp and they look dapper, you know? They look good. They look like they're in their suits and they're slim-fitting and whether they're large men or not, they're well turned out in a way that American men — for the most part — are not.
Steven: There's stylish and beautiful people in most big cities. But Tokyo was amazing, everything about it, the stores, the architecture, the food, the people. It had an incredible energy similar to New York and London. Those are the three that come to mind.
There are rumours floating that you're currently working on a woman's line, can you confirm that and if yes, can you give us any details?
Daniel: We can confirm it. We are going to show women's alongside men's in our fall '14 show which is happening on February 6th. It's for a woman, not for a girl. It's very luxurious. It's sexy. It's for a downtown, hip woman.
This is a toughie, but when asked about a favourite collection from your catalogue, does one instantly come to mind?
Daniel: I don't know if there's a collection; there are pieces. You're asking in terms of the shows you've seen, and we don't think of our collections in terms of the show, but in terms of the collection as an entirety. I actually think Fall '13 was a very strong collection.
Steven: If you're talking about photographic images of Duckie Brown, there is an image of a guy that's in the shape of an elephant with a brown cashmere suit on with a huge oversized sweater over it, and he's in such an odd shape, and that for me is the strongest image of the moment. I think the underwear with gloves that we did is a quintessential part of Duckie Brown.
Daniel: The floral pieces at the end of that Summer collection, when we did all those floral track suits. For me, every collection, I'm always surprised. At some point we get all the samples in and I'm like 'This is really good' and I have that moment with every single collection. So, whatever collection we're working on is always my favourite at the moment.
What's your favorite go-to store for basics?
Daniel: None really. I suppose I go to A.P.C sometimes. We shop all over the world. I don't really like to shop, so I wear a lot of Duckie Brown, because I like it, it's easy, and it's here.
Steven: I go to American Apparel sometimes.
Any New Year's resolutions?
Daniel: My resolution is the same as always: I don't make any. I try to do one day at a time.

The circulating cell-free microRNA profile in systemic sclerosis is distinct from both healthy controls and systemic lupus erythematosus.
Steen SO., Iversen LV., Carlsen AL., Burton M., Nielsen CT., Jacobsen S., Heegaard NHH.
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the expression profile of cell-free circulating microRNA (miRNA) in systemic sclerosis (SSc), healthy controls (HC), and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). METHODS: Total RNA was purified from plasma and 45 different, mature miRNA were measured using quantitative PCR assays after reverse transcription. Samples (n = 189) were from patients with SSc (n = 120), SLE (n = 29), and from HC (n = 40). Expression data were clustered by principal components analysis, and diagnostically specific miRNA profiles were developed by leave-one-out cross-validation. Diagnostic probability scores were derived from stepwise logistic regression. RESULTS: Thirty-seven miRNA specificities were consistently detected and 26 of these were unaffected by SSc sample age and present in more than two-thirds of SSc samples. SSc cases showed a distinct expression profile with 14/26 miRNA significantly decreased (false discovery rate < 0.05) and 5/26 increased compared with HC. A 21-miRNA classifier gave optimum accuracy (80%) for discriminating SSc from both HC and SLE. The discrimination between HC and SSc (95% accuracy) was strongly driven by miRNA of the 17 ∼ 92 cluster and by miR-16, -223, and -638, while SLE and SSc differed mainly in the expression of miR-142-3p, -150, -223, and -638. Except for a weak correlation between anti-Scl-70 and miR-638 (p = 0.048), there were no correlations with other patient variables. CONCLUSION: Circulating miRNA profiles are characteristic for SSc compared with both HC and SLE cases. Some of the predicted targets of the differentially regulated miRNA are of relevance for transforming growth factor-β signaling and fibrosis, but need to be validated in independent studies.

All the major dance styles of the Indian subcontinent share a common root system of ethical and aesthetic values. Hence no single style can claim to be 'purer' or 'older' than any other. Kathak - the style that grew, took shape and flourished in the northern regions of the subcontinent - has been misunderstood and misinterpreted on account of ignorance and prejudice from various quarters. This book sets out, therefore, to rectify incorrect perceptions by presenting historical facts and placing Kathak dance in its proper cultural context. The background of the dance is explained in detail, the religious, social and political influences over the centuries are recounted, myth, theory and reality are expounded upon, current trends are described and future possibilities examine and not least, the sheer beauty of Kathak is exposed to both the eye and the intellect. This book provides not only information on technique and training but also tells the dance lover what to look for in a typical Kathak performance. It will, indeed, assist the reader better to appreciate and understand a great dance style. The names and addresses of recognized dance schools and teachers, both in India and abroad, will prove useful, as will the glossary and bibliography. India's Kathak Dance: Past, Present, Future is essential reading for all those who wish to be acquainted with India's immense cultural and artistic achievements.


The hardline interior ministers of Austria, Germany and Italy have formed an "axis of the willing" to combat illegal immigration, Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz said Wednesday, escalating a Europe-wide row over the issue.
Seehofer -- who is locked in an open migration feud with Merkel that is threatening the stability of her coalition government -- said that he and his far-right Austrian and Italian counterparts, Herbert Kickl and Matteo Salvini, formed their alliance this week.
Their cooperation would extend to "issues of security and terrorism", he said, but did not offer specifics on what it would entail.

Der Serviço de Migração de Timor-Leste (portugiesisch, ehemals Departamento de Migração), beziehungsweise Servisu Migrasaun Timor-Leste (tetum) ist die Einwanderungsbehörde Osttimors. Am 5. November 2020 löste Superintendente Asistente Luís Soares Barreto den bisherigen Generaldirektor Agostinho Gomes  im Amt ab. Der Serviço de Migração de Timor-Leste hat seinen Sitz neben dem Innenministerium in Vila Verde.

Übersicht

Der Dienst wurde Anfang 2003 in seiner heutigen Form als Abteilung (Departamento) der Nationalpolizei Osttimors (PNTL) gegründet. Im August 2008 erfolgte mit dem Gesetz 31/2008 die Ausgliederung als eigenständiger Dienst, der dem Verteidigungsministerium unterstellt ist.

Der Dienst hat etwa hundert Mitarbeiter und ist für die zivile Einreisekontrolle an allen Grenzübergängen, Flughäfen und Häfen verantwortlich. Er entscheidet über eine Visavergabe bei der Ankunft und bearbeitet Anträge für weitere Visa, die Personen nach der Ankunft in Osttimor in Zusammenarbeit mit der Abteilung für konsularische Angelegenheiten des Außenministeriums erteilt werden. Der Dienst ist auch für die Verwaltung anderer Funktionen des Einwanderungs- und Asylgesetzes von 2003 (LIA) verantwortlich, einschließlich der Registrierung von Ausländern und der gesetzlich vorgeschriebenen Durchsetzungsbefugnisse gemäß dessen Bestimmungen.

Geschichte

Nach Abzug der indonesischen Besatzung übernahm zunächst die Übergangsverwaltung der Vereinten Nationen für Osttimor (UNTAET) die Verantwortung für die Einreisekontrolle nach Osttimor. Die Schaffung erfolgte mit der UNTAET Regulation Nr. 2000/9. Nach der Unabhängigkeit Osttimors am 20. Mai 2002 übernahm das Land mit dem Gesetz 4/2002 vom 12. November 2002 selbst die Aufgabe und übertrug sie an die Nationalpolizei. Die Verantwortung wurde in drei Schritten übernommen. Am 13. Januar 2003 am Flughafen Presidente Nicolau Lobato (Dili), am 21. Januar für die Visavergabe den Flughafen Baucau und den Hafen von Dili und am 1. März für die Grenzübergänge zu Indonesien. Zwischen dem 13. Januar und dem 15. Oktober 2003 unterlagen die Einwanderungsbestimmungen einer Kombination aus zwei Rechtsakten, der UNTAET-Verordnung 2000/9 und dem Gesetz 4/2002, bis die notwendigen Gesetze zur PNTL und zum Einwanderungs- und Asylrecht In Kraft getreten waren.

Gesetzlicher Hintergrund

Am 15. Oktober 2003 wurde das Einwanderungs- und Asylgesetz (Gesetz 9/2003, LIA) verabschiedet. Der Nationalpolizei wurden gemäß Artikel 2 Nummer 2 des Gesetzes 8/2004 die Überwachung der Grenzen durch Kontrolle des Personen- und Warenverkehrs in Absprache mit anderen Behörden und die Gewährleistung der Einhaltung der Verfahren für die Einreise, den Aufenthalt, die Ausreise und die Ausweisung von Ausländern aus dem Hoheitsgebiet. Die Aufgaben des damaligen Departamento de Migração wurde in Artikel 20 des Polizeigesetzes definiert:

 Kontrolle der Einreise, des Aufenthalts und der Ausreise ausländischer Staatsbürger in das Hoheitsgebiet
 Visaerteilung in Übereinstimmung mit dem Gesetz
 Durchführung von Familienzusammenführungen
 Durchführung von Ausweisungen von ausländischen Staatsbürger
 sonstige Aufgaben im Rahmen der Mission

Indonesien und Osttimor unterzeichneten am 29. Februar 2000 in Dili ein Abkommen über traditionelle Grenzübergänge und regulierte Märkte. Ergänzend dazu verabschiedete das Nationalparlament Osttimors am 28. Mai 2009 den Parlamentsbeschluss 21/2009.

There Seem to be No Happy Endings on The Vampire Diaries: Episode 08×11 Review
If you haven't seen The Vampire Diaries episode 08×11, then be WARNED! This post is full of SPOILERS!
I hate giving away spoilers, but this episode warranted a post BAD.
Are you still here? No complaining if you haven't watched the episode!
So with just a few episodes left in this shortened final season of TVD, things had really started to look dire. No-Humanity-Stefan was ripping through bodies and had straight-up lost any long-held love for his brother. And while the Sirens were finally out of commission, Cade was now in town, and I feel like we finally have a worthwhile villain this season. Not that cannibal sisters Sybil and Seline weren't villainous, but they walked a razor-thin line between being potentially redeemable and just annoyingly evil. (As opposed to Cade's bone-chilling, pure evil. I mean, he IS the keeper of hell so…)
Basically we had about a minute of "this might not turn out so bad" until Cade showed up and threw out an ultimatum and everything started to go downhill. But it wasn't until nearly the end of the episode when we realized how FAR downhill it had actually gotten. We were in a veritable pit of no return. Because Stefan was going to kill Elena's comatose body and Bonnie and Enzo were the only things standing in his way.
Which lead to two devastating things happening this episode: Bonnie giving Stefan the cure (to save herself), and Stefan ripping out Enzo's heart.
I should have known that there was no happy ending in store for Bonnie and Enzo. I've watched 8 seasons of Bonnie getting the short end of the stick so why would anything change now?
Bonnie became my favorite character in season 6 when she fought her way back from the 1994 prison world. While I knew objectively that the previous 5 seasons had literally been Bonnie sacrificing things/people she loved or even herself, it wasn't until season 6 where her true strength and spitfire came through. (06×13 "The Day I Tried to Live" where Bonnie contemplates suicide after the solitude of the prison world finally gets to her utterly broke my heart). Sometimes it feels like the whole "Bonnie and Elena's lives are linked" so that Elena will sleep so long as Bonnie is alive thing is actually a metaphor for how Bonnie can't have an interesting storyline on the show while Elena is around. Because she's literally ALWAYS sacrificing something for her.
And with the loss of her BIG LOVE Enzo, it's once again happened. So I honestly don't blame her for shoving the cure into Stefan and essentially ruining Damon and Elena's human future together. (Arguably, she saved their future because if she hadn't stopped Stefan, he would have killed Elena and Damon's ability to take the cure would have been useless at this point anyway.)
But just…WHY!? Why does this always happen to Bonnie?
On the upside, that little "whoosh" of air as she wept over Enzo's desiccated body sure looked like her magic might have returned. And it sets up the last five episodes of the season for a showdown in hell.
So basically, if we're not going to get a Bonnie/Enzo happily ever after, here's what I predict/hope/want.
Our heroes break into hell and 1.) destroy Cade and 2.) destroy his hell prison and save all our friends over the years who inevitably would have been sent there after the "Other Side" was destroyed at the end of Season 5. Something like this seems to be suggested from all the behind-the-scenes photos from set with deceased characters such as Tyler, John Gilbert, Aunt Jenna, and Vicki Donovan. And I want Badass Bonnie at the center of this prison break. While I really want her to have a happily ever after, this just doesn't seem to be in the cards for her. So the next best thing in my opinion would be for her to be the amazing, cut-throat hero we've known she's been all along. But no holds barred this time. I really want her to let Cade have it. She's had happiness ripped out from under her too many times at this point. It seems cruel.
However, knowing that Nina Dobrev promised to return for the final episode, I do worry that Julie Plec plans to martyr Bonnie in order for Elena to be awoken and we have our beautiful Delena end-game moment. Martyring Bonnie after EVERYTHING that's happened is not something that I'd be okay with. She's literally been the martyr the whole series. It's so predictable! Not to mention, it sucks to be Bonnie if that's the case. Not even a remotely mediocre ending for her. Geez!
I also have to make a note about the Bonnie-Enzo relationship which I know not all the fans were on board with. I know I was certainly taken aback a bit when they started making out in episode 07×03 after the three year time jump. But after they showed the development of their relationship and the changes that Enzo made to his outlook on life for her and because of her, I was a total Bonnie-Enzo shipper.
I guess, at this point it should be noted that there are only 2 main ships on the show–Bonnie/Enzo and Caroline/Stefan. While I love Steroline's friendship and the development of their romantic feelings I still always felt like Stefan was weirdly settling and that Caroline really belonged with Klaus, but that's just me. I'm a big Klaroline shipper. So Bonnie-Enzo felt like a more organic ship for me to root for.
I like that Bonnie fell for a vampire–or rather that she fell for a guy and looked past his vampirism (which for someone who's life has been ruined by vampires over and over, that's a pretty big step). But I also love that Enzo was willing to become human for her. Their relationship mirrors that of Damon and Elena quite a bit. Damon and Enzo are both the "bad boys." And Bonnie and Elena know they function best as humans (as compared to Caroline who made it very clear in 08×11 that she was a better person because she was a vampire). But while Damon struggled with the prospect of becoming human for Elena, Enzo was willing to give up his immortality with barely a second thought if it meant spending his life with Bonnie. So despite all the horrid things Enzo has done since he was introduced, we see that he's less of a flawed being than Damon in that simple action. Which is why, I mourn his death and the end of the beautiful relationship between Bonnie and Enzo.
Their relationship was short and chaotic, but it was pure in a way that Damon and Elena (while still my vote for end-game!) couldn't achieve. Damon and Elena always felt simultaneously right and wrong for each other because they consistently pulled each other in opposite directions. At the time of Elena's sleeping spell, it looked like they finally might be going in the right direction, but when Bonnie and Enzo found each other, they made a much more effortless blending of paths. Which is why I think, Bonnie and Enzo might actually be my all-time favorite TVD couple.

NEW DELHI: After having successfully run pilot programmes in Rajasthan, Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, Bharti Airtel officially launched 'Airtel Payments Bank' on Thursday here.
In an interview with ANI, Managing Director and CEO Airtel Payments Bank, Shashi Arora assured that people would not need to submit paper documents to get themselves registered.
"One of the biggest advantages of having this Bank is that the registration process doesn't require any documentation or paper work. People only need to share their Aadhar number for customer verification. Biometric verification will also be done," he said.
"The biggest advantage that comes with this bank is that people will be able to avail banking facilities at the nearby shops," Arora added, while stressing on availability of the banking facilities at one's doorstep.
He said that we have around 1.5 million shops through which customers get their prepaid cellphones recharged etc.
"We plan to make our banking facilities available to people through six lakh of these shops," Arora added.
Airtel Payments Bank has also taken measures to encourage cashless payments.
"We also want to encourage cashless payments through Airtel Payments Bank. There are around 10 million small shops in the country through which customers make digital payments to online merchants. Till now, we have activated more than one million of these shops to make payments through Airtel Payments Bank. In the near future, we plan to activate around five million of these shops," Arora said.
"Hence, not only will the customers be able to open savings accounts, and deposit and withdraw cash from these points, but also make digital payments," he added.
Notably, Airtel launched the first pilot programme of its payments bank at its 1,000 outlets in Rajasthan in November 2015. During this phase, more than one million customers were added.
Airtel Payments Bank is starting operations with 2.5 lakh outlets.
The company said it will be investing Rs. 3,000 crore to develop a pan-India banking network and digital payment ecosystem. Airtel is offering 7.25 percent interest per annum initially to attract customers, who can deposit up to Rs. one lakh in their accounts.
The telecom giant also plans to assign free personal accidental insurance of Rs. one lakh with every Savings Account and one minute of Airtel mobile talktime for every rupee deposited during account opening. There will be no charge on money transferred between Airtel to Airtel account.
