Chinese millionaires fork out thousands to satisfy their urge to kill
Submitted by bulmer on Feb 29 2012 05:02
It seems the new parasitic class of Chinese millionaires are not content with merely making millions through exploiting the Chinese working class. Increasing numbers of them are now choosing to spend these millions to pay for the right to kill animals all over the world, spending up to 498,800 yuan (about £49,880) on a single hunting holiday. Both the business owners and top ranking government officials are reveling in this new opportunity to act like complete wankers.

Letter on animal liberation - Gilles Dauvé
This is a letter sent by French readers to the authors of Beasts of Burden.
This pamphlet has the merit of addressing a vital question: If communism is to transform the whole of daily life, it can't leave out our relation to animals and the way we eat. Beasts of Burden forces to rethink the whole "primitivist" debate. We hope to tackle this some day.
A critique of animal rights ideology

My name is Spencer, and I have spent A LOT of time in the dreaded "Friend zone" over the last 4 years. Just how much you ask? Over the last 4 years I have been Friend zoned by 13 different girls. No that wasn't a typo, and no, you didn't read it wrong. I've been Friend zoned 13 times over the last 4 years . Pretty much everybody in the world knows what the Friend Zone is, but for those of you who don't know I'll help you out a little bit. "In popular culture, friend zone refers to a platonic relationship wherein one person, most commonly a man, wishes to enter into a romantic relationship, while the other does not. It is generally considered to be an undesirable or dreaded situation by the lovelorn person." The term Friend zone itself came from the popular TV show Friends when Ross, who was lovesick for Rachel, was described by character Joey as being the "mayor of the friend zone". MTV even had a TV show called Friend Zone, fortunately (or unfortunately), I never made an appearance on the show.
The point of this blog post isn't to tell the 13 (highly entertaining and fairly embarrassing) stories about how I got Friend Zoned, no, the point of this blog is to tell you what I learned from those experiences. I think many of my close friends would in fact call me the "Mayor of the Friend Zone" as well. So without further ado, let me tell you the valuable lessons I've learned about women, relationships, and myself over the last 4 years.
1. The end of high school, and especially the summer before college, is not the time to make your move. You've already had 4 years to make your move. In many cases if those 4 years weren't enough, three more months won't really help the situation. Plus, everyone is getting ready to go off to college in different states and not many people want to enter a long distance relationship at that time.
2. The first 2 months, or even the first semester of college is a crazy time and you are meeting a lot of new people. Before coming to college I had been told by one of my friends (who I actually happened to friend zone 2 years before) that everyone comes into college looking to find a significant other. I can tell you this is totally true. In my opinion there are two potential outcomes in this situation. You either meet someone and stay with them until graduation (I know several couples in this boat) or take another route. The other option is to try to confess your newfound love to every girl you meet and get friend zoned (this was the approach I took, obviously).
3. Sorority girls stick together. I learned this one out real quick. Girls in sororities will always stick together, especially when it comes to guys. Of the 13 times I've been friend zoned, 8 of them have come from one sorority.
4. Even if you're 1,000% sure she'll say yes, there's always a chance that she will not, and will friend zone you.
5. Girls will tell you that they like the dad bod, but they don't. I fell victim to this trick last year. The dad bod hype was going full force and I figured, with a little work, I too could have an amazing dad bod (I even went so far as to buying a "dad bod" tank top"). Girls got so comfortable around me, and I got so comfortable with the dad bod, that they actually just started calling me dad. Trust me when I tell you that if anyone calls you dad, they see you as NOTHING more than a friend, or like actually a paternal figure in their life that they can come to with any issues.
6. Smirnoff Ice, Mikes Hard Lemonade, Reds Apple Ale, Twisted Tea, Lime-a-Rita's, and Angry Orchards are the way to a girl's heart, I mean friendship. They are also an excellent way to bankrupt yourself. When you have a never ending supply of sugary malt liquor drinks on hand people start seeing you as more of a bartender, and friend, than a romantic partner.
7. Not all relationships are meant to be. Looking back now, there is no way that I would have had a good relationship with several of the girls who friend zoned me. Of course at the time, I was heartbroken and wanted to know what was wrong with me. But as you get older and wiser you start to see that things do tend to happen for a reason, sometimes.
8. Every failed relationship (or successful friend zone) teaches you something about yourself. It's important to take a step back after getting in the friend zone and figure out why you were put there. Some of the conversations I had were tough, but it's important to stay positive and be open to change and criticism. It really is eye opening to find out what other people honestly think about you.
9.It's actually not that bad to have girls who are just friends. There is no tension in those relationships. You can talk to them about other girls, or really anything for that matter. Some of my best friends are girls who friend zoned me 2 or 3 years ago. It is always nice to get another perspective in life and being friends with girls provides you with that opportunity. I can still remember my mom telling me this back in high school and I thought she was crazy. Looking back now I wish I would have followed her advice. Maybe if I did then I wouldn't be "the mayor of the friend zone".

Leo and Judith Ray started their first catfish farm, Fish Breeders, in the Imperial Valley of California in 1968. Then, in 1973, they moved to the Magic Valley of Idaho in search of a new and better way to raise fish. The Magic Valley has the largest volume of high quality spring water in the world. The abundant cold springs and warm, geothermal, artesian water were perfect for fish farming. It was there that they built Fish Breeders of Idaho, Inc.
Using the geothermal water, they first focused on raising catfish in concrete raceways with high density production and temperature control. In 1975, Leo extended this technology to Tilapia; thus (unknowingly at the time) creating the first successful Tilapia farm in the United States. Rainbow trout were added to Fish Breeders of Idaho's production in 1978 and sturgeon was introduced 1988. Even alligators were imported from Florida and raised from 1992 until 2002. Most recently, the company has expanded into tropical aquarium fish and White sturgeon caviar.

Q: How can I increase performance on reading the InputStream? This very well may just be a KISS moment, but I feel like I should ask anyway.
I have a thread and it's reading from a sockets InputStream. Since I am dealing in particularly small data sizes (as in the data that I can expect to recieve from is in the order of 100 - 200 bytes), I set the buffer array size to 256. As part of my read function I have a check that will ensure that when I read from the InputStream that I got all of the data. If I didn't then I will recursively call the read function again. For each recursive call I merge the two buffer arrays back together.
My problem is, while I never anticipate using more than the buffer of 256, I want to be safe. But if sheep begin to fly and the buffer is significantly more the read the function (by estimation) will begin to take an exponential curve more time to complete.
How can I increase the effiency of the read function and/or the buffer merging?
Here is the read function as it stands.
int BUFFER_AMOUNT = 256;

private int read(byte[] buffer) throws IOException {
   int bytes = mInStream.read(buffer); // Read the input stream

   if (bytes == -1) { // If bytes == -1 then we didn't get all of the data

        byte[] newBuffer = new byte[BUFFER_AMOUNT]; // Try to get the rest
        int newBytes;
        newBytes = read(newBuffer); // Recurse until we have all the data

        byte[] oldBuffer = new byte[bytes + newBytes]; // make the final array size

        // Merge buffer into the begining of old buffer.
        // We do this so that once the method finishes, we can just add the
        // modified buffer to a queue later in the class for processing.
        for (int i = 0; i < bytes; i++)
            oldBuffer[i] = buffer[i];

        for (int i = bytes; i < bytes + newBytes; i++) // Merge newBuffer into the latter half of old Buffer
            oldBuffer[i] = newBuffer[i];
        // Used for the recursion

        buffer = oldBuffer; // And now we set buffer to the new buffer full of all the data.
        return bytes + newBytes;
    }
    return bytes;
}

EDIT: Am I being paranoid (unjustifiedly) and should just set the buffer to 2048 and call it done?

A: BufferedInputStream, as noted by Roland, and DataInputStream.readFully(), which replaces all the looping code.

A: int BUFFER_AMOUNT = 256;

Should be final if you don't want it changing at runtime.
if (bytes == -1) {

Should be !=
Also, I'm not entirely clear on what you're trying to accomplish with this code. Do you mind shedding some light on that?

A: I have no idea what you mean by "small data sizes". You should measure whether the time is spent in kernel mode (then you are issuing too many reads directly on the socket) or in user mode (then your algorithm is too complicated).
In the former case, just wrap the input with a BufferedInputStream with 4096 bytes of buffer and read from it.
In the latter case, just use this code:
/**
  * Reads as much as possible from the stream.
  * @return The number of bytes read into the buffer, or -1
  *         if nothing has been read because the end of file has been reached.
  */
static int readGreedily(InputStream is, byte[] buf, int start, int len) {
  int nread;
  int ptr = start; // index at which the data is put into the buffer
  int rest = len; // number of bytes that we still want to read

  while ((nread = is.read(buf, ptr, rest)) > 0) {
    ptr += nread;
    rest -= nread;
  }

  int totalRead = len - rest;
  return (nread == -1 && totalRead == 0) ? -1 : totalRead;
}

This code completely avoids creating new objects, calling unnecessary methods and furthermore --- it is straightforward.

NASA baffled by mysterious ice circles in the Arctic
NASA has no idea what is causing these ice holes in Arctic sea ice. (NASA)
By Cleve R. Wootson Jr.
Cleve R. Wootson Jr.
National political reporter covering the 2020 presidential campaign.
Add this to the ever-growing list of things you have to worry about:
Somewhere in the Arctic sea ice, where the temperatures are typically below freezing on even the balmiest days, there is a random pattern of holes, and NASA — the rocket scientists who took us to the moon and want to take us to Mars — can't figure out what they are.
NASA has spent the past decade flying over Earth's Arctic and Antarctic regions in an attempt to understand the connections between the world's climate systems, and to look at global warming's effect on some of the coldest places on Earth.
The missions have a name straight out of a James Bond novel: Operation IceBridge.
It's an intensive, six-month survey over two hemispheres that uses "the most sophisticated suite of innovative science instruments ever assembled," including laser altimeters, plane-based lidar and NASA satellites.
And with all that, NASA's official scientific explanation for the bizarre phenomenon is essentially:
"We saw these sorta-circular features only for a few minutes today," IceBridge mission scientist John Sonntag, the man who snapped the photo, wrote from the field. "I don't recall seeing this sort of thing elsewhere."
The sort of things he saw were three amoeba-shaped holes in a vast, unbroken sheet of thin ice.
[Scientists are starting to clear up one of the biggest controversies in climate science]
Not content to keep the bafflement in-house, or perhaps as a fishing expedition, the folks at NASA presented the photo to the space-curious public. They posted a picture of the mysterious ice holes as the April 2018 Puzzler, a monthly contest in which NASA asks viewers to describe a mysterious pictured object.
The post, however, never mentions that NASA's scientists are among the puzzled:
"Your challenge," the contest rules say, "is to use the comments section to tell us what we are looking at and why this place is interesting."
Competitors came up with a host of answers: The holes might be remnants of meteorites or maybe dried up salt lakes, some said.
No one guessed "entrance to the fortress of solitude" or aliens, or suggested that they were the non-crop versions of crop circles, although one person guessed that America's space agency posted a picture of "something that's come from outer space."
[The government admits it studies UFOs. So about those Area 51 conspiracy theories …]
Sonntag snapped the photo April 14 while Operation IceBridge was flying a P-3 research plane over a part of the Beaufort Sea that scientists haven't explored in detail since 2013.
They know that the ice there is, as sea ice geophysicist Don Perovich told NASA, "likely thin, soft and mushy and somewhat pliable."
That means the holes could occur naturally, as warmer bodies of water "make their presence known in this particular area," melting the sea ice, Chris Shuman, a glaciologist at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, told NASA.
Or maybe seals have taken advantage of the mushy ice to gnaw air holes that would allow them to surface and take a breath where breaks in the ice don't naturally occur.
Area seals could not be reached for comment, but Walt Meier, a scientist at the National Snow and Ice Data Center, told the Mirror that the encircling features, those lighter areas of ice around the holes, "may be due to waves of water washing out over the snow and ice when the seals surface."
Sonntag and his camera are no strangers to bizarre frozen phenomena. He's a research and development scientist with NASA and is assigned to Operation IceBridge. He's also the one who snapped that photo of the crack on one of the largest ice shelves that ultimately gave the world an iceberg the size of Delaware.
So he has seen a lot of ice and snapped a lot of photos of rarely seen, icy phenomena.
And all of it was explainable — until now.

Wigan Athletic under-18s made it ten successive wins in the Youth Alliance after putting four past Tranmere Rovers, including a brace for forward Kyle Joseph and a goal each for Joe Gelhardt and Charlie Jolley.
Despite a cagey opening 10 minutes to the game, Latics had two chances in quick succession. Luke Robinson's floated cross was not dealt with and forward Kyle Joseph was unable to divert his latched effort goalwards.
The latter was involved again minutes later after Charlie Jolley's pass, but the Scotland youth international's effort lacked any conviction.
Though, the forward made no mistake with his next opportunity to put the visitors in front. Robinson found Jolley with a clever pass and his effort was blocked, before the ball fell kindly for Joseph to beat the keeper from close range.
Latics were in full flow and could have had a second moments later, Scott Smith's searching ball found Ollie Broe, whose terrific first-time ball found Jolley, but the striker's header was off target.
Left- back Luke Robinson, who made his youth international debut for Scotland against Uzbekistan, almost got his first goal of the season. Divin Baningime's pass found the defender in space but his low shot went just wide after a mazy run past the Tranmere defence.
The Scotland pair were involved again and Latics should have doubled their lead with less than 10 minutes to go before half-time.
Robinson's disguised pass found Joseph and the forwards drilled cross was met by Jolley, but the striker's effort came back off the post.
Latics extended their lead just before half-time, Joe Gelhardt beat his man and played a clever ball for Joseph who dispatched his effort past the keeper.
The visitors got a third moments later, substitute Harry Jolley drove into space and his cut-back found England youth international Gelhardt, who executed his shot perfectly to grab his third goal in his last four games.
Latics started the second half in the same fashion and could have had their fourth. Jensen Weir's corner was met by Adam Long who rose highest, but the defender's header was cleared off the line.
Tranmere Rovers had the chance to pull one back in the 70th minute, though Latics goalkeeper Bobby Jones was equal to the effort and made a comfortable save.
Though, the hosts got their goal just minutes later after the referee pointed to the spot, with the penalty being converted.
Latics were awarded a penalty of their own with just under 10 minutes to go, an error in midfield left Baningime with the space to run into and the forward's bright run resulted in him being brought down in the box.
Charlie Jolley stepped up to regain Latics' three goal advantage, dispatching the penalty calmly past the goalkeeper.
Substitute Mitchell Culshaw was denied twice in the final few minutes, after his initial effort was saved before his left-footed rebound was blocked on the line.
"I thought we worked hard today, we got three good goals in the first half.
"We reacted well after they scored and got a penalty ourselves so that shows our spirit to keep on going", he said.
"It was a surprise for me, but I'm so grateful for the opportunity.

Hydrocephalus is a condition in which excess cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) causes the brain to swell. Cerebral Spinal Fluid (CSF) Shunts can alleviate this condition and other similar conditions by draining the fluid from the brain into the rest of the body. In this procedure, the doctor places a catheter into the brain, a catheter into another part of body, and allows fluid to flow out from the brain. Hydrocephalus patients can also be treated with ventriculostomy, which involves drilling a small hole into the third ventricle in the brain to let fluid drain out of the brain.

The team members prepare for Hydrocephalus and share a scheduled date of the procedure with the patient. The patient is advised to follow a few instructions as given by the Hydrocephalus surgeon. In addition, the Hydrocephalus hospital initiates the formalities and informs the patient about the estimated cost. The patient is accordingly required to submit documents for any insurance claim approval.
What is the Hydrocephalus surgeon responsible for?
The surgeon is responsible for the preoperative diagnosis of the Hydrocephalus patient, for performing the operation, and for providing the patient with postoperative surgical care and treatment. The surgeon is worked as the leader of the Hydrocephalus surgical team.

'The Resident' Addresses Kira Dixon Johnson's Death In Incredible Episode on Racial Bias in Healthcare
'The Resident' Addresses Kira Dixon Johnson's Death In Episode on Racial Bias in Healthcare
April 19, 2019 Lena Finkel 0
If there was any doubt that The Resident was one of the best new dramas on TV, this week's episode surely put those ideas to rest.
In an unusually political episode, The Resident addressed the role racial bias plays in maternal mortality rate, which is particularly high in black women. According to data obtained by Vox, Black women are 3.5 times more likely to die because of complications from childbirth.
In the episode, a young Black woman deals with severe abdominal pain, only to be ignored by her older, white doctor and a white nurse. Although Dr. Devon Pravesh emphatically tries to bring the doctor's unconscious racial bias to his intention, the doctor insists that he treats all his patients equally.

After hours go by, the mother dies from a nick to her bladder — a death that was completely preventable.
The episode is actually based on the true events of Kira Dixon Johnson, a black woman who died at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in 2016 after delivering her son.
Since her death, her husband Charles Johnson has become a huge advocate for the issues surrounding maternal mortality.
For the episode, The Resident producers and writers worked closely with Johnson to make sure his wife's story was told as accurately as possible. He told The Root that he spoke with The Resident's team for about four hours. He said,
"Much to their credit, we had a very candid conversation about the racial disparities and the role that I felt race played [in Kira's death], and how I feel that biases are a contributing factor across the board to women of color."
He added,
"I was so fortunate, this is not something where they just took our story and ran with it."
Johnson was also given an advance screening of the episode to give a final sign-off.
At the end of the episode, Dr. Pravesh is successfully able to convince Dr. Bell to implement changes to their policies to ensure that nothing like this can ever happen again.
Unfortunately, this is doesn't happen in real life. Many hospitals lack policies and protocols to prevent unconscious bias, particularly in the maternity ward.
The Resident co-creator Amy Holden Jones said,
"There actually is a solution. Those systems and those protocols exist for most of the things that go on in medicine. For surgery, if you go into the ER with chest pains, there's a whole series of things that kick in automatically, and because they exist, even unconscious bias will be defeated because you have to follow that system of protocols. There is no protocol for childbirth. And they would have saved Kira if [there had been]."

Of all the chapters in all the books I've read in my life, one has impacted me more than any other. It was Chapter 2, "Money Ain't What It Used to Be–and Never Was", in the book Your Money Or Your Life by Joe Dominguez and Vicki Robin. The chapter outlines perspectives on money as a whole, presents the concept of calculating your "real hourly wage", and wraps up by promoting the tracking of every penny you spend. It's an absolutely amazing read and if I had to recommend one chapter to anyone looking to improve their financial life it would be this one.
I was recently calculating our "real" hourly wages, when I found myself deep in thought about what expenses could be contributed as job related. Anyone who has struggled with this question before knows there is a lot of gray area when crunching the numbers. For example, a big part of this calculation involves examining areas of your life and determining on which things you are overspending due to stress from overworking on the job. The authors suggest categories such as vacationing, weight loss programs, entertainment expenses, and even "recreational substances" can easily see increased spending when we are stressed and need a release.
EDIT 4/2/09: The majority of the following list was originally published in Your Money Or Your Life. Although I've added, removed, and combined categories based on my personal experience, I in no way claim this content to be original.
Shut-up and give me the list!
Increased costs associated with stress-related illnesses.
Don't forget to include the time spent on a lot of the activities above as well. This time should be added to the actual amount of work hours before running the calculations.
Also it should be noted that some of these ideas do have positive benefit as well. In addition, some jobs have added benefits in the form of reduced insurance, paid sick days, company cars, etc… This isn't meant to be a negative list. Actually, the end point of all of this is to accelerate the accomplishment of your goals by realizing that you are constantly trading your "life energy" for money (and not as much money as you think). The quicker you can get out of this process, the more time you'll have to live your wildest dreams!
What things did I forget? What other things do you use to calculate your real hourly wage? Let me know below and you just might get it added to the main list above!
I was thinking therapy, but it may fall under category 49. How about pressure to donate to charities/fundraisors presented by coworkers/bosses.
Nice post – very complete. Also, nice hearing you on the radio just now! Good job Adam!
@ Josh – You are correct in that therapy could almost stand alone by itself. I meant for charities to be included in #39 as well. I know we often feel a lot of pressure to always give to every single fundraiser and/or walk for causes, etc… We like to give, but can't always give to everyone! That's a good one for sure.
@ Neal – Thanks for the support! You should call in next week… I rambled a lot, it's harder calling in than you might think!
I stumbled upon your site and found I might could spend a GOOD amount of time here! Looking forward to checking it out more and seeing who your other blog friends are.
Under the time category, the time it takes to get ready for work and drive to and from work. The work day is generally 40 hours. At one point, my work day lengthened to 60 plus hours.


In order to acquire the optimal working clearance for non-contact detecting stress of steel members with magneto-elastic stress sensor, a magneto-elastic sensor probe with E-shaped structure is adopted for carrying out the relevant research. Firstly, the principle of non-contact stress detection is discussed based on magneto-elastic effect, and the magnetic circuit of the magneto-elastic stress sensor is analyzed for deducing the basic output voltage equation of sensor when tested pieces (low carbon steel Q235) is loaded with uniaxial stress, on the basis of ferromagnetism and presented references, the technical parameter of sensor is determined for designing non-contact stress detection system. After that, focusing on the design of the testing program with different excitation frequencies and air gap, actual experiments are carried out to optimize working clearance when tested pieces are loaded with uniaxial stress. Results of the test show that this kind of sensor is not only simple in structure but also valuable with non-destructive, convenient and fast measurement of stress in application.


Charlotte Flair and Sasha Banks face off.
While I don't typically enjoy talking segments opening Raw, Jeri-KO are absolutely amazing together, and I actually groaned when Reigns got involved because he put an end to the entertainment. I guess it was a nice change for Reigns to get some mic time for once, and I will admit Owens is the best in the business at recovering from flubbed lines (Jericho saying English was Owens' second language had me in stitches). They once again teased tension here, but they did the same thing last week and it was a ruse, so why would this be any different ultimately?
When I got Strowman in my Royal Rumble Game earlier this year and he became my unofficial new "favorite" wrestler for 2016, I didn't think he would ever grow on me the way he has. WWE deserves credit for doing such a good job of building him up since the Brand Extension started because he truly comes off like a monster heel. Furthermore, I loved the fire Sami Zayn showed in his post-match promo while Mick Foley continued his streak of disappointing mic work with his front teeth (?) popping out.
Roman Reigns pins Kevin Owens.
Yet again, we were treated to another well-wrestled Cruiserweight match that was completely meaningless. A little promo time can go a long way, and giving Ariya Daivari a mic before the bout between him and Alexander last week was a step in the right direction. People genuinely care about Alexander, and he received a pretty loud reaction from his hometown crowd in Charlotte. That said, it made zero sense to have him lose. Sure, it put heat on Nese for winning, but will anyone really care about him more coming out of this? Probably not.
Well, it's difficult to say much about this "match" because it didn't last long at all, and the double count-out finish would have been an awful way to finish the feud. Thankfully, it was merely WWE's way of justifying doing a Falls Count Anywhere match in the main event. That was a cool announcement, but why not advertise that ahead of time? It might have made people care more about the match knowing there would be a stipulation and not just another standard singles match.
So, why was there a rematch? Rusev won pretty decisively in the matter of a minute last week, so I'm not sure why they felt the need to have another match. What's worse is that this was even shorter and Enzo won by disqualification, so a third match is bound to happen next week. I'm sorry, but I just wasn't a fan of all the testicle talk beforehand. And that's coming from someone who is a big fan of Enzo's act. It brings back bad memories of The New Day's feud with The Club and the atrocity that was.
Both of these guys are babyfaces, so I don't know why the crowd would have had an incentive to cheer one guy over another except for the fact that Swann's a better dancer. Considering he's challenging for the WWE Cruiserweight Championship on Tuesday night, he needed to win here, so I was glad he did and it was a nice match to boot. His post-match promo was all right, but he won't get any better unless he is given more chances to talk in the future. Also, The Brian Kendrick's rant on Byron Saxton on commentary was priceless.
The matches that these two will have throughout this feud are bound to be solid, similar to this encounter. The middle portion of their matches is usually boring, but other than that, they have a nice chemistry together. My only issue with the program is that it is still too early for Reigns to be challenging for the world title. Hell, he's the United States Champion and that title looks worthless for not factoring into the equation whatsoever. Why not give it to someone who could actually use it like Sami Zayn or Cesaro?
I was honestly hoping we wouldn't hear from Heyman or Brock Lesnar until after the Royal Rumble, but this was a logical approach to take so the events of Survivor Series weren't forgotten within one week. On that same note, I love how they announced Lesnar's participation in the Royal Rumble match so early because it makes it feel like a big deal. Heyman here was phenomenal in that he looked the part with bloodshot eyes and being unshaven, really selling the loss like it affected him deeply.
It's such a shame The Club didn't demonstrate this dominance during their feud initially months ago as opposed to all the atrocious comedy we were subjected to instead. More people might care about them right now and view them as more of a threat had that happened. This was probably the best bout they've ever had, and I loved how Club was on offense for a majority of the match only for New Day to retain their titles by cheating. It makes it look like they're desperate to break Demolition's record.
As much as I want this feud to end, it's tough to complain when every one of their matchups are awesome. This was no exception as they more than made the most of the extreme stipulation and took their fight all around the arena. The finish was unique, too, with Banks forcing Charlotte to tap out in the stands. One can argue that putting the title on the line in main event matches helps maintain the prestige of the belt, and while that is partially true, I'm not a fan of playing hot potato with the belt in the slightest. What about the rest of the women? They're all afterthoughts. And now you know this feud isn't over because Charlotte has her rematch. Ugh. If the end game is Banks vs. Bayley at WrestleMania 33, then I'm content, but nothing is ever accomplished because Banks can only win the title on Raw it seems.
You can't do No Disqualification title matches in the main event of Raw every week, but it worked for this episode. And for once, the final hour was the best of the show with two titles up for grabs, an exceptional interview with Heyman and an above-average Owens vs. Reigns match. The first two hours were mostly decent, but that last hour was enough for me to give this show a thumbs up. I'm interested to see how the rest of the Roadblock card fills out in the weeks ahead.

HOT|COOL NO. 4/2021 - "Going Greener"
QUALITY DATA will ensure green transition in the energy sector
The future energy infrastructure puts high demands on the underlying IT architecture in the energy companies. The IT architecture must enable unhampered data exchange across older technologies, cloud services, meters, sensors, OT/IT systems, etc. The goal is a Smart Grid that transforms raw data into valuable knowledge on reducing our resource consumption as a society.
By Jens Cornelius, Senior Business Director at KMD
T he Danish energy sector is in the middle of a transforma- tion process. Sustainable energy sources such as wind and solar must account for a far greater share of Danish energy production in the future. In 2020, the Danish government and a broad parliamentary majority agreed on an ambitious climate accord to ensure a green energy sector and essential steps towards a greener industry. The agreement contains several concrete initiatives. Some of them are constructing the world's first energy islands totaling 5 GW – one in the North Sea and one in the Baltic Sea. The agreement also details investments in carbon capture (CC) and green fuels. The focus on sustainable energy sources calls for an adjustment of the electricity infrastructure to handle the fluctuations in en- ergy production caused by the changing wind and weather conditions. An intelligent infrastructure will help develop the electricity system and thereby create a reliable and efficient balance between production and consumption of electricity — a Smart Grid. Data is a cornerstone in the green transition The intelligent utilization of data will make the base of the fu- ture electricity system in Denmark. Meaning that the shift from primarily fossil-based energy production to 100% green ener- gy production – the target is coal, oil, and gas independence in 2050 – will be helped by automated processes and new tech- nology. The raw material in both automated processes and new technology is intelligent energy data.
The vision is an international network of public and private players that exchange data in a secure, lawful infrastructure. The network will allow Denmark always to have the energy needed - energy produced green and sustainably using wind, solar, biomass, and geothermic technology. The data-driven energy company At KMD, we work with the notion of becoming a data-driv- en company. In the energy sector, being data-driven means that you – from a technology standpoint – use the insights of the past to determine the investments and actions of the future. Most energy companies have, for instance, vast amounts of historical data on energy consumption in Den- mark. But these data are not activated due to, among oth- er things, technological silos, outdated platforms, and the lack of system interfaces. The data sits there – unorgan- ized and entirely too immense to be used meaningfully. The data-driven energy company allows itself to – via data inte- grations – draw meaning from the historical data to build the intelligence needed to carry out an efficient green transition of the sector in a focused and prioritized order. Avoid the Tetris structure I usually describe the system architecture of the past in ener- gy companies by using the popular computer game Tetris. In Tetris, the idea is to place the falling pieces correctly. If you are skilled and quick on your fingers, the pieces will fall into place layer by layer in the grid. But if you fail at long-term thinking, more and more unintended gaps will form – gaps that you are
