Wayfair) changed the state sales tax obligations for all companies who sell remotely through websites and catalogs. As a result of the new laws, Johnny's is now collecting and remitting sales tax in all required states and jurisdictions.

If so, Johnny's wants to make sure we have a copy of your current tax-exemption or resale certificate on file. This will help you to avoid sales tax on applicable items within your future Johnny's purchases.

"My Moon?....I.....I would never hurt you...."Kamia spoke softly as she gently cupped her cheeks,soon leaning down and placed a kiss on her head.
The omega nodded gently " I I know.
"Come,Lets relax and have our picnic/first date."The alpha said softly and soon led her omega over towards the blanket.
Kamia held her close as she sighed softly,resting her head on her mates head.
The omega fell asleep a little bit later.
Kamia soon had laid down on the blanket,holding her mate as she slept on top of her with a soft smile.The alpha soon fell asleep as her body warmed up to keep her warm.
Kamia soon had slowly woke up as she let out a yawn,soon rubbing at her eyes.
However, her omega was gone.
Kamia quickly stood up as she looked around in panic,occasionally calling out to her mate,both through the mind link and out loud.
Kamia noticed as her expression turn dark and murderous as she silently went up and stood behind her mate,her eyes a glowing red.
The guy looked up at her, his eyes pale.
Kamia growled as her pupils dilated,soon feeling her claws growing out.

The sides meet on Sunday.
Manchester City host Manchester United for the first time this season on Remembrance Sunday at the Etihad Stadium.
Here, Press Association Sport takes a look at five classic Manchester derby encounters.
A late Denis Law goal against his former club in a bad-tempered game condemned United to relegation from the top flight.
Law's backheeled goal was one of the final touched of his career. A pitch invasion in the latter stages of the game prevented the final five minutes from being played, but the result still stood. United returned to Division One after just one season in the second tier.
City went into half time leading 2-0 with two goals from Niall Quinn and United's bad week, following their exit from the Champions League, looked set to continue.
Substitute Michael Owen scored from a Ryan Giggs cross, six minutes into injury time to give Manchester United victoryr.
City had come from behind three times in the match, thanks to a first-half Gareth Barry strike and two goals from Craig Bellamy but were unable to hold on to the point. Wayne Rooney had opened the scoring after two minutes, and Darren Fletcher then found the net twice in the second half for the home side before Owen's last-minute winner.
Under manager Roberto Mancini, City inflicted United's worst defeat in 56 years when they won 6-1 at Old Trafford.
Mario Balotelli bagged the first two goals – bringing out his 'why always me?' t-shirt in the process – either side of half-time as United were reduced to 10 men early in the second half. Sergio Aguero, Edin Dzeko – who scored twice – and David Silva all added their names to the score sheet in the drubbing.
City would have been confirmed as Premier League champions had they beaten their United, and looked set to do so before the visitors fought back in the second half from two goals down to claim a dramatic victory.
Pep Guardiola's side took the lead through captain Vincent Kompany after 25 minutes and added a second minutes later through Ilkay Gungogan to lead 2-0 at the break.
A second-half brace from Paul Pogba in the space of two minutes overturned City's lead and Chris Smalling's volley gave the visitors victory to delay City's title celebrations.


"Delme, what the heck is a Dirty Chai?!" I hear you cry. Well, ponder no longer, for I am here to answer your question!
When I lived in the states a few years back, this was one of my go-to drinks. It's not really a thing over here in the UK for some reason, and I have no idea why, because it's DELISH. A Dirty Chai is a chai latte with a shot of espresso. Seriously, go try it. The sweetness of the chai latte, along with its aromatic spices, plus the earthiness of the espresso gives such a unique taste. I fell in love with it. You could also have a "Filthy Chai" which is with a double shot...Naughty.
So I decided to translate this into cake - why? Because everything should be cake. This recipe is a lovely, fluffy, coffee & walnut cake covered in a chai latte buttercream. If you're allergic to walnuts or just hate the sight of them, just replace them with a similar nut of your choice. Seeing as my first blog post was trying out someone else's recipe, I thought it only right to add my own as the second post!
This coffee cake has had a lot of experimentation - from instant coffee, coffee flavouring, espresso and instant espresso. I like punchy flavours, and a lot of the time for me, it hasn't had a strong enough coffee flavour. The recipe below is totally the one. I use two different types of coffee flavour to pack a nice espresso punch!
Preheat the oven to 190°C or 170°C fan - Grease and line two 8" cake tins - Cream together the butter & sugar using a mixer/whisk - Add the eggs one at a time, mixing a little between each one - Add the flour & baking powder and mix until combined and smooth - Chop up the walnuts and add them to the mix along with the double-coffee mix - Something I learnt from Delia: stir it just 3 or 4 times, enough to get a marbled effect to the mixture - Divide between the two tins and bake for around 25 minutes until risen and golden: insert a skewer or cake tester into the sponge to check, if it comes out clean, you're good to go!
Now. I'm going to say something controversial. Whenever I make buttercream, I always start with the butter, give it a bit of a whip, and then add the icing sugar 4 heaped spoonfuls at a time. However, I don't follow an exact amount of icing sugar to butter. I do it by taste. For me, there's nothing worse than REALLY sweet buttercream, where all you can taste is sugar. I start with the 250g icing sugar and then take it from there. Once you've added all the butter, add the chai spices and give it a beat. If you can still taste butter, add more icing sugar a couple of spoonfuls at a time. If it tastes fine, you're good to go! You want to beat the hell out of it - you want it to go a very pale colour, almost white compared to the yellow of what it was. It should be light in texture so that you can spread/pipe it onto the cake. This can take some time and that's ok - let it do it's thing. When it's all combined it's time to decorate!
I like to sandwich the two sponges together with some of the buttercream, and then cover the cake in the rest of it and decorate it in a rustic way. I like to top it with walnut halves and chocolate-covered espresso beans for an extra coffee hit. This time I also topped it with some cacao nibs, which add a lovely, earth chocolate crunch. This is the perfect cake to have on standby for coffee time, or even with a lovely chai tea!

Well, this sucks. It's my birthday this weekend. Please stay.

If you feel this place is unwelcoming or if dipshits from reddit are talking shit, I understand why you want to leave. But, as Cameron said, please stay.
I appreciate these, and I do regret saying that this place is a dumpster fire now because ultimately that's not true. However, things have been feeling different lately, and considering the things that have been said towards me in these kind of instances it leads me to believe that I am part of the problem here. So I think it's just best for everyone, mainly myself, that I take an extremely extended hiatus from the forums.
11 hours ago, theworstbuddhist said:
Just curious, what do you think you're accomplishing here, rhetorically speaking? Are you trying to imply that I don't think rape is bad? You feel my phrase that you called out is insufficient to cover the actions of some in Hollywood who are criminals? I disagree. Rapists and abusers are absolutely shitty people.
So what's your purpose here, apart from trying to reassert some kind of weird alpha-poster dominance with your hair-splitting and your "impressive" signature? I have neither the time nor patience for this. If you just want to put words in my mouth or nitpick to serve your own agenda, kindly don't bother replying next time, or just mute me, as I certainly plan to do with you.
You know what you were inferring with that statement. I quoted everything you said back at you so there's literally no putting any words into your mouth. You literally stated that even shitty artists can be on our side and to instead concentrate on "actual" enemies. I pointed out the difference between just "shitty" and physical abuse and that those artists are in fact not on the right fucking side. If you want so badly to dodge being called out then fine, but don't try and act like you weren't doing what you literally did.
But yeah you're sooo right, I'm just trying to be number one here instead of being absolutely fucking triggered by this whole fucking conversation and try and keep my god damn cool and listen to literally everyone's point of view in the most civil way possible and then call out some total fucking bull shit when it happens. But it seems like if you plan on muting me (eye roll) then you won't even see this so this is mainly for myself because lmao what the fuck ever.
Actually maybe this is just the right time to say I'm fucking leaving. This place used to be a literal safe haven (no pun intended considering they covered that movie) and now it's a god damn dumpster fire.
I hope everyone feels the absolute joy of my departure that they seem to be clamoring for since I'm so fucking hated by the whole god damn fanbase for my favorite fucking podcast.
6 minutes ago, theworstbuddhist said:
I guess my point is, if you want to battle the evil in your world, artists of any type are probably already on your side, even if they are shitty people. You can concentrate on actual enemies like, say, your rapist "president" and his oligarch masters first.
There's a difference between "shitty people" and an actor that was accused of beating his girlfriend, or say a director that was convicted of raping a 13 year old girl and fled the country to avoid sentencing, or say a producer that raped multiple women over decades.
Also... it's almost as if we can concentrate on multiple issues at once...

I take umbrage to the idea we were fighting on the message boards. As far as I could see it was business as usual. There was a lot of discussion about baseball that I didn't understand but I don't think that got particularly heated? Am I missing something?
I feel like as of late there's been a lot of misunderstanding of how we all talk to each other on the boards. Paul inferred something similar during the Snow White conversation over on the Unspooled side of the forums and he said that we all didn't want it on the list because it's problematic now and I was like wait what? No one even talked about the problematic side of the film???
8 hours ago, gigi-tastic said:
It's really not about the money for me so much as I feel like when I do buy their stuff (even older stuff in some people's case) it's like I'm saying " I support you and I don't care what you did. "
I think this is what I was trying to get to. It doesn't matter how much it is to me because it's still a message of support and I am actively choosing to contribute something to them, and that's not something that sits right with me.
5 minutes ago, sycasey 2.0 said:
That contribution seems very minor, though. Like, so minor as to basically not matter or have any real impact on their future career prospects.
But this is also something I very much care about: being able to view and study past works in a medium I love (film). To me that overrides whatever minimal impact an iTunes rental might have on someone's pocketbook.
That's not the point though. I don't care if it's minimal in your personal outlook, but if we're talking about contributing to them then money is indeed a contribution. It may only end up being $0.10 but that's ten cents *I* worked hard for and that's ten cents *I* could instead add to my donation to RAIN or to Planned Parenthood or to literally any other movie that doesn't have an abuser in it. There are millions of them out there.
Again it's your personal decision, but it feels important to me to comment on these lines that we've all drawn up.
Ha! I almost asked if we should all watch A League if Their Own to balance the scales, but I was afraid it would come off snarky and I really didn't want that.
I wasn't sure if I wanted to admit this but I should own my truth in that I have never actually seen A League of Their Own. I just know everything that happens and feel like I have seen the movie but legit I have not lol.
11 minutes ago, Cameron H. said:
I was thinking about this earlier today, and I get this is a very specific example, but what about supporting the abused? In this case, not supporting Penn also means not supporting Madonna. Granted, I don't think she really needs the residuals from people watching Shanghai Surprise, but should she be punished because he's an ass?
I guess I'm falling a bit on Paul's side from the Unspooled episode. A lot of people worked on Chinatown, should they be punished because they unknowingly worked with a monster? Should we ignore the work of the other actors, cameramen, writers, sound editors, composers etc, because they worked with someone who turned out to be a piece of shit?
It's a tough nut to crack. It really is. And for me, it really comes down to when I first experienced their work. I think it also makes a difference if the person is in front or behind the camera. Since I've never seen them, I know I will never now be able to watch American Beauty or The Usual Suspects. I don't care how good they are. I won't be able to get passed Kevin Spacey. I guess it really comes down to how people can compartmentalize .
And, like SyCasey alluded to, there are so many garbage people out there. I'm sure there are terrible people who work on every movie, show, song, whatever. Where do we draw the line? If Ringo's drum technician is a serial killer, do we stop buying Beatles records? What's different between that and being an actor-for-higher beyond visibility?
Personally, if I don't want to support Shanghai Surprise but I would like to support Madonna, then I'll go out of my way to do something else for her or anyone else ya know? Unless someone truly never did anything before or after this movie then there are other opportunities to support those people in other ways. I can buy a Madonna song for the same price as this movie was available to rent, or I can watch something else with Jack Nicholson and Faye Dunnaway.
It really is a tough nut to crack and it's probably something we're all going to be discussing not only with each other but with ourselves for years to come, because truly I haven't even come to a solidified answer for myself yet, but I know I'm like you in that if there are things I've never heard or seen then I'm definitely now never going to watch or listen to them. I'm fine with never seeing Chinatown now because it's never going to be anything different for me than a movie by a convicted pedophile who escaped from his punishment.
Agreed. However I also agree that sometimes you can separate the work from the artist it's just where you personally say this is something I cannot forgive. It's very tricky. I love Picasso but abhor Picasso. However he's dead and I'm never going to be in a position to own a piece of his work.
I think using Picasso as an example is probably not the most fair considering yeah we're never going to afford a real Picasso painting and he's dead.
Like I said though it's a personal choice. We just did Chinatown on Unspooled a few weeks back and while I know the woman has made a statement about not wanting to be used as a martyr for people to boycott Polanski, I can never erase that from my mind and I refuse to participate in giving him any money, especially as a survivor of assault myself.
It's a conversation I think people have had over and over and while I still think it's a personal decision I also think it just so easily gets tossed aside with a separation of art and artist thing, but sooo many times we see the artist put their abuse into their art (looking at you Woody Allen making Manhattan) and I live paycheck to paycheck and work way too fucking hard for how little I make to just turn around and put more money into the pockets of these billionaire abusers.
ETA: This comes off super judgey and I apologize, cause I truly couldn't care less what people choose to do, but I think if we're having the conversation and we're all saying where we personally are drawing these lines then it needs to be really talked about.
34 minutes ago, sycasey 2.0 said:
I understand not wanting to support new work from these people, but for old stuff I've decided that I'm fine with watching it. If I had to cut out all old artwork from potentially abusive people I would be missing out on a lot.
But even old work, if paid for, gives money to said abusers. Many artists get royalties or residuals based off of if something airs on television or gets purchased off of iTunes. So this is really a personal decision for everyone, but don't think that just because you're not purchasing something new that you're not still putting money in their pockets.

Aside comment - the podcast mentioned how this was the rare (only?) Oscar BP that was released in February. My recollection is, it came out in February, but then was re-released close to the end of the year when they felt they had a shot at the Oscars (admittedly a memory from when I was a teenager, and as I write it, it feels weird that that is something I think I remember). One of the more overt Oscar campaigning practices.
I did a quick search and it's wikipedia entry made it sound like it never actually stopped showing until October of 1991, but that almost seems impossible for a movie to stay in theaters that long!
The exact quote is: "The Silence of the Lambs was released on February 14, 1991, grossing $14 million during its opening weekend. At the time it closed on October 10, 1991, the film had grossed $131 million domestically with a total worldwide gross of $273 million."
But either way it seems like your memory is correct!

Well, within the context of the movie they say he's not untalented, he's just too difficult to work with. So he starts getting work because he's in disguise, not specifically because he's a woman.
Anyway, I'm not commenting on the later plot developments once he's disguised as a woman, more the setup that he has trouble getting work and yet is supposed to be a talented actor. I think that is actually decently explained in the movie.
*He* makes it about gender though.
And anyway, you commented on a comment that was a reply to my comment that has to do with the gender politics of the concept so

In fairness, being in a place with a lot of acting work like NYC also means there's a lot of competition.
Not enough to dress like a woman and expect there to be more work *because* you are a woman.
Ooooh I just finally listened to the episode and Paul you made a ginormous error! Roz was NOT on RuPaul's Drag Race! She's definitely quality enough to be on the show but she's never been a contestant!

I think it's Michael Dorsey's overestimation of his own acting talent that makes him do it - he thinks he's so good that he can even dress as a woman, audition, and land the part easily - which he does! I think it's hubris that makes him dress as a woman and the lure of easy and consistent soap opera money that makes him choose that part.
I guess I worded my statement wrong because I don't have a misunderstanding of why he does it, that's pretty clear to me. I have a misunderstanding of why I'm supposed to be okay with the concept and his thought process because it's a very thinly veiled reason and any woman watching this movie would immediately be like uhm what?

Yea definitely. It's not like there isn't some feminist messages in there, but as I said in my Letterboxd, it's basic. Almost too basic, if you ask me. So basic that it might even hamper the film's points entirely.
(Ah sorry for my typo... I have not had any caffeine yet...)
I think this is feminist to a point for sure. In 1982 I'm sure some men saw this for Hoffman and it probably blew their minds but I completely agree that it's very basic, and it's a very surface level take on feminism for sure. I totally forgot for a second that 9 to 5 was made a full two years prior so it's even worse now in my opinion lol. For some reason I was just convinced this came first and then 9 to 5 just improved on the women in the workplace conversation.... yet.... nah they did it first and fucking fantastically.
Why isn't 9 to 5 on this list!?
(Quick sidebar but Dolly Parton did NOT win the Oscar for the song 9 to 5 and I'm pissed cause "Fame" won and literally it beat both Dolly and Willie Nelson's On the Road Again.... what the fuck Academy???)

Machine translated chapter 445 of Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World light novel.
Laura they also nodded, several people set out to rest, the Space here situation, regarding them was really very good, Zhao Hai they do not worry. Next morning, after Lando their together has had the breakfast, Zhao Hai their leave, these time from sea surface leave, Zhao Hai yesterday in the evening Haven Ship had let out, therefore Haven Ship was waiting for Zhao Hai in pier there now. However Lando they know that Zhao Hai puts on an act ship release, although their don't know Zhao Hai rushes to their here with any method, but what we definitely know is that they not with ship. After Zhao Hai they embarked, ship immediately leave the harbor, Zhao Hai they did not have immediately to go to Jade Water City from Space, if makes the person know, him just embarked, that side arrived at Jade Water City, that certainly will think of him to be able Space ability, because on this different realm besides Space Teleportation	, does not have any ability to have that quickly. Zhao Hai they have not entered to Space, but sits in on the ship look at sea surface, for sometime they have not arrived in the sea, now sits in on the ship, was hearing ocean flavor, that feeling also is really good. Sat in on the ship, the ship that on look at sea surface came and went, Zhao Hai sighs said : "returned to the sea, in the past few days on the sea, but also has not felt really that knows to Continent on, on Continent so was unexpectedly cold." Laura also sighed said : ", on Continent felt that was very cold, was good has Cai'er because of Iron Mountain Fort there, could not feel is so cold, was really good, I liked Iron Mountain Fort there actually." Does Zhao Hai show a faint smile said : "Megan to like here? You grow up in here since childhood, here cold season wet cold Shileng, I do not like." Megan smiles said : "actually to adapt in Iron Mountain Fort there, I like Iron Mountain Fort there, there is really very good, must say words that likes, Sky Water City here I truly am the comparison custom, however the here winter is really very repugnant." Zhao Hai smiled, looked at time said : "and other time, we go to Jade Water City, to there, as soon as possible handles the there matter, we go to Carson City, no matter what, unnecessary time prepares grudge is not." Megan they smiled, several people chatted a while in on the ship, two hours unknowingly on the past, Zhao Hai they looked to leave Sky Water City sea region, Zhao Hai their immediately entered in Space, from Space to Jade Water City. Place that this time they choose, is outside Jade Water City, to Jade Water City outside, they had not ridden the Giant Ox raging bull car(riage), but rides a horse to enter a city.
They went to the Mu'en shop first, in the Mu'en shop the present is very busy, immediately to God's Grace Day, at this time, is on Continent various commodity most best-selling times, but in the Mu'en shop, is the commodity in Space, although Haven product in the Rosen Empire here not too big fame, but now Haven this brand, actually relying on perfect quality, already slowly by the Rosen Empire here person accepting. Because of this, therefore to God's Grace Day time, the people want to eat good thing, but the Haven product not only quality is good, is inexpensive, when regarding these poor people, is grudge best thing that eats. Zhao Hai looked that in the shop is so busy, he cannot help but smiled, turns the head to smile said : to Laura "looks like Mu'en work pretty good, later our just by these expensive, the income does not lower." Laura smiles said : "I to look is not Mu'en well done, is thing that in Space produces is good, is adding on you but now the Charlie favorite, these people does not dare not to give you face, therefore now the business so will be good." Zhao Hai smiles said : "leave alone because of anything, if the Mu'en ability incorrect words, here cannot arrive at this degree, walks, to Mu'en said that several words, we must go to City Lord Mansion there, sees the Laze cloth our immediately to go to Carson City especially." Several people of chatting to backyard, the Mu'en family member look at them to come, immediately called Mu'en, now except for some important characters, Mu'en has not needed to receive personally. After Mu'en several people welcomed in room, Zhao Hai look at Mu'en smiles said : "well, Mu'en, you did was very good, is very good, was right, previous did that batch of marine products of sending did, process?" Mu'en nodded said : "to process, has given especially the Laze cloth, the account has recorded, I give Young Master you to bring." Zhao Hai shook the head said : "not to look, after in the sea business, has been under the charge to you, later once for a while rendered an account to Laura was good, I may not have the mood to look at these thing."

Interested in a career in acting, music, theatre or dance? Here's what the world's best performing arts schools have to offer
"The world is a complicated place, and there's a lot of division between people. The performing arts tend to unify people in a way nothing else does." David Rubenstein, financier, philanthropist and Chairman of the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts
One might think it odd that David Rubenstein, one of the world's leading financiers and richest men (with an estimated wealth of $3BillionUSD) might also be one of the world's greatest advocates for the performing arts, but as Rubenstein explains, it is the arts that unites us as people.
The Baltimore born Chairman of the Smithsoneon, who graduated from Duke University magna cum laude and the University of Chicago Law School at the top of his class, has spent his life supporting students passionate about performing arts study - a pursuit he describes as necessary to the beating heart of humanity.
If you are interested in performing arts study, admittedly it is difficult to know where to start. Are you a dancer, a musician, an actor or interested in all three? Do you want a conservatory program or a conservatory-style program where you are also encouraged to explore other liberal arts courses?
The good news is, the options are endless, but that in itself can add confusion to the already difficult question of: 'which performing arts programs should I apply to?'
A good place to start is researching universities that are listed at the top of performing arts rankings (according to QS World University rankings) - schools that have earned the reputation for being the best of the best thanks to their high calibre faculty, first class performing arts facilities and famous alumni.
Want to know more? Here are five of the best performing arts schools/programs the world has to offer.
Throughout its history, The Juilliard School has maintained a commitment to providing the highest caliber of artistic and educational experiences to exceptionally talented young performing artists from around the world. Founded in 1905 as the Institute of Musical Art by Dr. Frank Damrosch, the school was created so that American students might experience an educational journey comparable to that of the established European conservatories. Today dancers, actors, playwrights, classical and jazz musicians receive a first class education at Julliard where 'students hone their craft and deepen their artistry'. The School has its own application portal with all the information artistic stars of the future need to take their first step towards performing arts success.
Famous Juilliard alumni include: Robin Wlliams, Jessica Chastain, Yo-Yo Ma, Viola Davis and Aretha Franklin.
The Royal College of Music (RCM) is one of the world's great conservatoires, training gifted musicians from all over the world for international careers as performers, conductors and composers. Founded in 1882 by the then Prince of Wales (later Edward VII), the RCM has trained some of the most important figures in British and international music life. With 750 students from more than 60 countries studying at undergraduate, masters or doctoral levels, the RCM of the 21st century is a vibrant community of talented and open-minded musicians. RCM professors are musicians with worldwide reputations, accustomed to working with the most talented students of each generation to unlock their artistic potential. The RCM website contains all you need to know when it comes to audition guidelines and application deadlines.
Famous RCM Alumni include: Andrew Lloyd Webber, cinematic composer John Williams and opera singer Dame Joan Sutherland.
Founded in 1822, the Royal Academy of Music is Britain's oldest degree-granting music school. The academy - which is one of the most generous in scholarship opportunities for gifted students - currently trains nearly 700 students from over 50 countries in over 20 musical disciplines. Describing themselves as: 'inspired by the past but committed to shaping contemporary musical life with discernment and open-mindedness,' the Academy is also home to some of the best performing arts facilities in the world including over: 100 teaching and practice studios, rehearsal and lecture rooms, several large concert rooms, the 300+ Susie Sainsbury Theatre, the 100+ seat Angela Burgess Recital Hall and the flagship 350 seat Duke's Hall concert venue. With enrolments opening in mid-July, the Academy offers copious information as to application requirements on their website.
Famous Royal Academy of Music alumni include: Elton John, Annie Lennox, pianist Kit Armstrong and world renowned soprano, Lesley Garrett.
New York University Tisch School of the Arts
NYU's School of the Arts was founded in 1965 to provide rigorous conservatory training in theater and film in the context of a great research university. The school quickly established itself as one of the leading arts schools in the country, creating additional departments of dance, theater design and lighting, and cinema studies within a few short years. Today, NYU's Institute of Performing Arts offers intense professional training to individuals in the departments of Art & Public Policy, Collaborative Arts, Graduate Acting, Dance, Drama, Design for Stage & Film, Graduate Musical Theatre Writing, and Theatrical Production. Additionally, in association with the Graduate School of Arts & Science, the Tisch School's Department of Performance Studies offers an innovative approach to the study of the history, theory, and practice of human performance.

Five things you didn't know about China's Sesame Credit social ranking system
TransportLong ReadsApps
By Felix Todd 08 Feb 2019
From Orwellian nightmare to state-imposed social engineering, Ant Financial's Sesame Credit system has been described as many things - here we take a closer look at the system and five things you may not have known about it
China's Sesame Credit system has been likened to George Orwell's dystopian vision of a future governed by 'big brother' in 1984
Data is becoming an ever-more foundational aspect of modern life but in China, where the Sesame Credit system is gathering steam, things are moving faster than anywhere else.
What is China's Sesame Credit system?
The app was created back in 2014 by Ant Financial, an affiliate of Jack Ma's e-commerce behemoth Alibaba and formerly known as Alipay, which couldn't have chosen a more opportune moment for launch.
Data tracking has never been more sophisticated and ubiquitous than it is now, with virtually everything someone does in their day-to-day lives being logged, collated and stored.
This is especially true in places like China, where QR codes are omnipresent and cash is a thing of the past, meaning everything from renting a bike and checking-in to a hotel to staying up all night playing video games is traceable.
In the case of Sesame Credit, it's this and many, many more kinds of data that's being used to construct social rankings for each every person who has installed the app – some 520 million people.
Rank highly by doing things like paying your debts on time and avoiding criminal activity, and life gets easier – cash deposits for various services are waived and your kids can go to better schools, for example.
Fall afoul of the numbers game by doing anything from jaywalking, to refusing to serve in the Chinese army, and it gets harder.
Certain establishments can refuse you service, while other users with high rankings are incentivised to ostracise you.
Here we profile five things you might not know about Ant Financial's highly controversial Sesame Credit.
1. It's all about 'trust'
Though the Western media has painted the Sesame Credit system as though it were some sort of dystopian nightmare made reality, Ant Financial claims it's actually all about building trust.
In 2014, around the time Sesame Credit was first being introduced, a Chinese government document on the possible utility of social ranking systems stated: "Trust-keeping is insufficiently rewarded and the costs of breaking trust tend to be low."
Jack Ma, chairman of Ant Financial's parent Alibaba (Credit: Natalie Behring)
It's this idea that underpins Ant Financial's app, according to Wen Quan, a blogger who writes about technology and finance.
She told the BBC: "Without a system, a conman can commit a crime in one place and then do the same thing again in another place.
"But a credit system puts people's past history on the record. It'll build a better and fairer society."
2. It isn't mandatory
Portrayal of Sesame Credit in the media has led to the common misconception that it's mandatory – but it isn't.
Chinese citizens have the option to opt-in, if they so wish, with certain incentives for attaining a high-ranking score designed to entice users.
If they would rather not, the option to live without it remains.
Ant Financial hasn't made that easy, however.
The company's parent, Alibaba, is a staple of nearly every element of life in China, from internet shopping and social media to public transport and online payment.
This makes it particularly difficult to operate outside of its sphere of influence, and to operate within it without Sesame Credit means being at a constant disadvantage.
3. It doesn't have a 'blacklist' feature
Much has been made of Sesame Credit's supposed blacklist feature, which doesn't actually exist within the app.
It does exist within the Chinese government's own social ranking system, however, which has become a common source of conflation with Ant Financial's app.
There is scant information on the state-run system, save for the fact that it does actually include a blacklist feature, which inflicts punishment upon those who do everything from failing to pay fines on time to revealing government secrets.
Given the fact the Chinese government has greater sway over its country's population than even all-conquering Alibaba, the consequences for a low ranking on its system are severe.
Serial offenders can lose certain rights and ultimately be banned from using transport such as trains and planes, effectively blocking their exit from China.
This was seen in November 2018, when it was revealed that millions of Chinese citizens had been blocked from booking flights or trains.
China is home to some of the world's largest tech companies, most of which gather large amounts of data on the country's vast population
4. It doesn't officially involve the Chinese government… yet
Many assume Sesame Credit is an Orwellian exertion of government influence in China, but this isn't the case. Not yet, anyway.
In 2014 the Chinese government announced it would be allowing various companies to implement their own social credit systems, which many have done, before potentially collating and combining them with its own tool in 2020.
5. It isn't the social credit system in China
Since the government approved their use, a number of Chinese companies have introduced social credit systems – Sesame Credit is the most-used, but it's not without competition.
Tech behemoth Tencent, for example, released its own social ranking app last month.
It has a lot of catching up to do with Sesame Credit, but it has the potential to grow rapidly, as it is available to all customers who use Tencent's social media and messaging platforms WeChat and QQ – a total of more than 800 million people.

Timor-Leste é um país localizado na Ilha de Timor, a maior das pequenas Ilhas da Sonda e situa-se entre a Indonésia, a Oeste e a Austrália, a Sul, alongando-se no sentido sudeste-nordeste. A sua área total é de aproximadamente 15.007 quilómetros quadrados.

Localização
Localiza-se no Sudeste Asiático, a noroeste da Austrália, no arquipélago das Ilhas de Sonda na ponta oriental do arquipélago indonésio; ocupando a metade oriental da ilha de Timor, o enclave de Oecusse, a ilha de Ataúro e o ilhéu de Jaco.

É banhada a sul pelo Mar de Timor, que a separa da Austrália; a noroeste pelo Mar de Savu, que a separa das ilhas de Sumba, Flores e Solor, e a norte pelo Estreito de Wetar, separando-a da ilha com o mesmo nome.

Geotectónica
A Ilha de Timor faz parte do Arco de Banda. A crosta continental australiana estende-se até o norte da costa norte de Timor e pensa-se que esteja a levantar Timor.

Fronteiras terrestres
 Apenas a Fronteira Indonésia-Timor-Leste, com 228 km

Relevo
Timor-Leste é muito acidentado, tendo vários picos com mais de 2000 metros: Tata Mai Lau, Matabian, Boicau, Cateral Cabiac, etc,.
A cadeia montanhosa de Ramelau divide o país em norte e sul, sendo o seu pico mais elevado o Monte Tatamailau, com 2.963 metros acima do nível médio das águas.

Mais de 40% do país tem declives inclinados de 40%, sendo por isso muito vulneráveis à erosão e ao desgaste provocado pelas chuvas de monção.

Hidrografia
São numerosas as ribeiras de carácter intermitente, que secam na estação seca e formam grandes torrentes na época das chuvas. Não existem, assim, grandes sistemas estuarinos.
Existem, no entanto, algumas ribeiras de curso permanente, como por exemplo a de Lacló e a Lois.

Clima
Possui um clima tropical quente e úmido, com distinção clara entre estações seca e chuvosa.

Fauna
A figura ancestral da cultura timorense é o crocodilo, verificando-se a existência do Crocodilo-de-água-salgada (Crocodylus porosus) principalmente na costa sul da ilha.

Os habitats marinhos de Timor Leste são habitados por diversos tipos de megafauna:
 Cetáceos, muito comuns nas águas de Timor Leste, particularmente em Manatuto, Carimbala, Liquiçá e Tutuala em Lospalos. São treze espécies de cetáceos: baleia-azul, cachalote, baleia-sei, baleia-piloto-de-aleta-curta (Globicephala macrorphyncus), falsa-orca (Pseudorca crassidens), orca-pigmeia (Feresa attenuata), golfinho-cabeça-de-melão (Peponocephala electra), baleia-bicuda-de-cuvier (Ziphius cavirostri), golfinho-de-risso (Grampus griseus), golfinho-pintado-pantropical (Stenella attenuata), golfinho-de-dentes-rugosos (Steno bredanensis) e golfinho-rotador (Stenella longirostris);
 Cinco espécies de tartarugas: tartaruga-de-pente (Eretmochelys imbricata), tartaruga-de-couro (Dermochelys coriacea), tartaruga-verde (Chelonia mydas), tartaruga-comum (Caretta caretta) e a tartaruga-oliva (Lepidochelys olivacea);
 Outras espécies comuns são os dugongos, mantas, Myliobatidae, tubarões-baleia, orcas e mantas.

Ecossistemas
Timor Leste caracteriza-se pela diversidade de ecossistemas, nomeadamente:
 Manguezal -  Os manguezais ocupam um pequena área de Timor Leste (1.802 ha) quando comparado com as regiões vizinhas como a Indonésia (3.062.300 ha) ou a Austrália (1.451.411 ha). Isto deve-se à configuração costeira e fisiografia de Timor Leste que, ao contrário das outras ilhas do arquipélago da Indonésia e da costa norte da Austrália, não possui contornos costeiros salientes, características fisiográficas e processos costeiros suficientes para o desenvolvimento significativo de manguezais.
 Ecossistemas marinhos - Com uma localização na região do Triângulo do Coral e adjacente a um grande corredor migratório de vida selvagem (Estreito de Wetar - Mar de Savu), Timor Leste possui um hotspot oceânico de vida selvagem marinha pelágica e migratória.

Áreas protegidas
Foi criado o Sistema Nacional de Áreas Protegidas (Decreto-Lei n.º 56/2016) que define 46 Áreas Protegidas, nomeadamente:
 Parque Nacional Nino Konis Santana
 Monte Legumau
 LagaoMaurei

Knowing that your fry friend is happy is all a cat guardian ever wants. Some of the ways that cat guardians make their cats happy is by buying the cozy blankets and toys. Sometimes it is not healthy to have your cat in the house all the time. A cat also needs some outdoor experience and you can make sure that it gets this experience while still keeping it safe. Since outdoor cat enclosures are effective, most cat guardians are slowly warming up to them. These enclosures are known as catios and if your cat does not have one, it is about time you get one for your friend. Outlined below are 4 reasons why you should definitely get a catio for your cat.
If you want to ensure that your cat will not need to see the vet frequently, you need to get it an outdoor cat enclosure. Cats enjoy playing more than dogs. In addition to this, they often are more vulnerable to different predators. When you get an outdoor enclosure for your cat, you do not have to worry about their safety. The enclosure serves as a form of security that protects your cat from accidents, predators, and parasites. This in turn reduces the regular visits to the vet which can sometimes be stressful for both you and your pet.
Having your cat in the house the whole day is not healthy. Your furry friend also needs that dose of fresh air and vitamin D. When your cat has its own enclosed space outside, it gets an opportunity to enjoy the warm sun, the different activities taking place outside, and the beautiful cold breeze. Catios ensure that your dog remains protected and also gets to enjoy the beautiful outdoor lifestyle.
It is risky to just leave your cat all alone outside. Even though you might find some people who leave their feline friends alone to walk around in the neighborhood, it is a huge risk. A catio can help to make sure that your cat experiences a great time outdoors and still remains safe. An enclosure guarantees the safety of your feline friend and still gives your pet the chance to see what is going on outside.
To sum up, an outdoor cat enclosure can really come in handy if you have more than one cat. Since cats are territorial, you might find that they often fight when they are sharing the same space. Getting a catio for your cats is a way of expanding their territory because each car gets to have their own free space.

Meyrick on the beginning of his Le Mans love affair
Le Mans rookie Andy Meyrick offers his thoughts on the build-up to his debut in the world's most famous round-the-clock race - and admits he 'couldn't ask for a better place to be' than Oreca
Andy Meyrick has reflected that he 'couldn't ask for a better place to be' as he gets to grips with the legendary 13.6km La Sarthe circuit ahead of this weekend's 78th edition of the iconic Le Mans 24 Hours round-the-clock classic, as he waxed lyrical about Oreca-Matmut and admitted he hopes to return to the race dubbed 'the toughest in the world' on many more occasions.
Meyrick is making his Le Mans debut in 2010, having competed in the Le Mans Series (LMS) with Kolles Audi last season and the American Le Mans Series (ALMS) with a Dyson Racing-run, Mazda-powered Lola B09/86 this - but the young up-and-coming British star is fast finding his feet in his new discipline having initially cut his teeth in single-seaters. The Le Mans 24 Hours, however, is another challenge altogether - as he is rapidly discovering.
"It's been really good," he revealed, speaking to Crash.net. "I'm really happy with how it's going. Obviously for my first time on the track the goal is to complete some night laps and my ten rookie laps - but the first few laps were a bit of a blur to be honest because of the speeds! There's just no circuit like it, being on full-throttle for that long.
"You do get used to it, though, and you just have to look for your reference points. You need to approach it and drive it slightly differently than you would a normal circuit, because you just can't remember the whole lap. Since getting used to it, it's been mentally challenging more than anything, not so much physical - it's about learning all the intricacies of the circuit and the car. There's no room for error [at Le Mans], and that makes it pretty daunting.
"I'm still a little bit off where I need to be and where I'm aiming aim to be, but as a car we're already more than 3.4 seconds quicker than the fastest time the team set last year. If I get the opportunity to push in the second qualifying session, I should be able to make even more gains and hopefully go quicker again."
Meyrick is teaming up with old hands Soheil Ayari and Didier Andr? for his Le Mans bow, and he paid tribute to his team-mates as well as the AIM-powered LMP1 class car the trio are campaigning and the Dunlop tyres, praising the British company for having 'exceeded everyone's expectations' in its battle with Michelin. What's more, with rain widely anticipated for second qualifying on Thursday evening and changeable conditions predicted for the race, the 24-year-old is now eagerly preparing to learn the circuit all over again.
"It will be good to collect some data and work on some settings in case there are wet periods during the race," he reasoned. "We need to set the car up, make sure everybody is comfortable and get some laps in when it's wet. There's a large risk of aquaplaning when it rains here, with standing water even when the rain isn't that bad. At Tertre Rouge the road runs down quite a lot, so you can get a river developing there.
"There are all the different crests, camber and intricacies when the weather is changeable that only experience brings, but I have two really experienced team-mates helping me and a team that has been here many times - I couldn't ask for a better place to be in terms of being able to learn everything. It's just been phenomenal. This is Soheil's ninth Le Mans and Didier's eighth, so they have 17 Le Mans starts between them and I'm the baby of the group, but we've been walking the track every day and that has been really helpful.
"The other car has three fantastic drivers too, and for me to sit alongside Olivier Panis in a debrief and share experiences and impressions of the track with him is incredible. There's just a fantastic atmosphere between all the drivers in the team and the technical staff and the mechanics. It's very open and relaxed, and we're always pushing to go forwards. Oreca is a fantastic team to be working with, and the experience they bring - especially for a rookie - is immense."
As to the objective for what lies ahead, Meyrick makes it clear that he is not going to set the bar too high, and he warns against getting into the mindset of wanting to be the best of the petrol-powered brigade - behind the diesel-powered Peugeots and Audis that bin qualifying were just too far out-of-reach - but a top ten finish outright, he hints, would be a more-than-satisfactory outcome. And then, long may the love affair continue.
"For Oreca as a team, their best chance of an overall win or a podium is the diesel," the Cheshire native acknowledged, "but our aims are slightly different. The first goal has to be to finish. I'm sure we will be there towards the front of the unofficial petrol class, but we don't want to get too caught up in trying to be the best of the petrol cars, because there are no prizes for that.
"We know we can't fight with the diesels, but if we do a good job, stay consistent and spend as much time as possible out of the pits the rest will come. We need a trouble-free race and to keep repeating good lap times over-and-over. We would like to finish as the top petrol car and the top ten overall is the aim - anything above that is a bonus.
"We want to prove this package. Last year in LMS it was the best car on the grid by the end of the season - and we're here to prove that again. Obviously, Oreca have some big plans for the future with this car, so if we can remind everybody of its potential that will be beneficial.
"Driving for a French team brings added expectations and added atmosphere, with the sheer number of fans here. I've really enjoyed that, and I'm happy that I'm making my debut in this race now, because I feel ready for it; I'm not too young, and I'm in the right place to grow as a sportscar driver. Le Mans is huge - the biggest challenge in the world for a sportscar driver - and I would like to be here for many years to come."

Airport surveillance radar refers to a radar system used to identify and display the position of the aircraft in the airspace around airports. Further, advanced airport surveillance radar system consists of primary surveillance radar and secondary surveillance radar. Using airport surveillance radar, air traffic controllers maintain a safe flow of air traffic and prevents collisions.
Global airport surveillance radar market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.8% during the forecast period. In recent years, airport surveillance radar market has witnessed significant growth is anticipated to expand during the forecast period owing to the increasing infrastructure airport construction activity in the developing regions. Moreover, massive growth in tourism across the globe is expected to drive the growth of airport surveillance market in the next few years.
Geographically, North America accounted for the major market share in overall airport surveillance radar market in 2016. High number of airports coupled with massive passenger traffic is expected to drive the growth of the airport surveillance market. U.S. is the major contributor to the growth of the airport surveillance radar market. Further, presence of major manufacturers in the nation is envisioned to strengthen the market of airport surveillance in the nation.
Increase in global tourism and rising number of airports in developing regions is one of the key factors driving the growth of the airport surveillance radar market. Further, the number of international tourist is expected to exceed 2 Billion by the end of 2030. Additionally, this high growth in passenger traffic and number of airports is anticipated to accelerate the growth of the global airport surveillance radar market.
Apart from this, massive utilization of airport surveillance radar for military airport is spurring the growth of the airport surveillance radar market globally. Subsequently, increase in defense budgets is expected to supplement the growth of the airport surveillance radar market. Furthermore, technological advancements such as integration of satellite navigation system with airport surveillance radar are likely to increase the market size of the airport surveillance radar market.
In contrast, reduction in number of airports in developed regions such as North America and Europe is likely to dampen the growth of the global airport surveillance radar market. For instance, as per Bureau of Transportation Statistics, number of airports in U.S. was estimated to be 20,341 in 2007. However, this number declined to 19,536 in 2016.

Life of all kinds and how we as Human beings interact with it and respond to it, has always interested me.Life's transitory and ephemeral nature makes me want to dig further into the psychology of our (Humanity's) universe. Through my own representational language, be it obvious or obscure, I wish to engage the psyche. By employing that which may be real or imagined, I am suggesting a believable structure, yet one not necessarily rational. If we can say that the world of science is synonymous with truth and the world of art with that of fiction, I want to tread a middle ground that is unusual and seemingly beyond belief, yet also familiar.
