A dazzlingly beautiful summer day, in sparkling blue and green, I made this finding, with the couple in love sitting at the top of the cliff with the whole Mälaren (sweden's third largest lake) in front of them.
Luckily I had infrared film in the camera, and the two had eyes only for each other, and I'm really pleased with the result.
I hope your summer is as fantastic too!
Härligt! Velat prova med ett ir-filter till min digitalkamera länge men har inte blivit av. Hur är det med ljusstyrkan och infraröd film? Blir det långa slutartider med en gång?
Haha, okej. Tänkte att löven/molnen/människorna såg rätt skarpa ut för att vara väldans lång slutartid.
Your picture create light and airy feeling. Awesome!
Wonderful Marie. Romance in the summer and the infrared has encapsulated the lightness of the summer days. Hope you are well and glad to see the sun is shining after the gloomy winter.
You are always welcome Marie. Thanks for asking and I am doing very well thank you, Summer has been very busy bit not so much photography now, but getting back into walking the South Downs and the wonderful coastline.
It looks like a fairytale. Amazing!
En bild som berör… En stor like på denna!!
This photo captures the essence of what love really is! The lighting, the angle, the color tones. BEAUTIFUL!! Great work!

Here they are again, I haven't seen my dungarees for a long time. I bought them two years ago at Asos and they're still available! That means they're still wanted. To me they stay one of the special pieces in my closet cause I don't wear them that much. So every time I pick them out it feels like I'm wearing something new. It's a good thing I guess cause it would be boring if I wear them every week, don't you think? I mean, they're not that difficult to style cause the dungarees are awesome on their own so they only need some basic items to finish.
Gorgeous pics and love the look ! You look pretty with the light blue color !
LOVE everything about this look! You look so stunning and those shoes are just too cute.
Wow dit is één van je beste outfits tot dusver! Ik vind de salopette echt super! mooie foto's ook!
Supermooi! Ik ben meteen fan van je blog en ben je gaan volgen op Bloglovin'.

Lil Wayne Confirms That Lauren London Is Pregnant With His Baby
Child with the 'ATL' actress will be Wayne's third.
Jayson Rodriguez 08/18/2009
[artist id="510062"]Lil Wayne[/artist] is welcoming another little Carter into the world. The rapper finally revealed during a radio interview on Tuesday (August 18) what had been widely speculated: Lauren London is expecting his baby.
The "ATL" actress is several months pregnant and surprised attendees of Diddy's white party over the Fourth of July when she arrived with a bulging belly.
"Lauren London, she fine," Los Angeles Power 106 jock Fuzzy said to Wayne. "She very pregnant with your baby."
To which Wayne responded, "Very pregnant, yes."
Fuzzy then offered a congratulations to the Cash Money star, and he gladly accepted.
Wayne and London had been spotted together at basketball games in the past, but it's unclear if the two were an official item or just casually dating. Representatives for both entertainers did not respond to inquiries made by MTV News as of press time.
This will be the third child for Lil Wayne. He has a daughter, Reginae, with former wife Toya Carter, who stars in BET's "Tiny & Toya Show" with T.I.'s girlfriend. And just last year, Wayne announced the birth of his first son during the 2008 BET Hip-Hop Awards. The mother of Dwayne Michael Carter III was not identified when Wayne broke the news as he accepted Lyricist of the Year honors, but gossip blogs unearthed images of the woman, a college student.
This will be London's first child. The actress' credits include "ATL," "Entourage" and "I Love You, Beth Cooper" with Hayden Panettiere. The due date and sex of the baby are unknown at this time.

Covid19 Diary 9
Posted on July 13, 2020 by Avril Hannah-Jones
Samuel Pepys: July 13, 1665
… Above 700 dead of the plague this week.
Last time I wrote about covid19 I said that we seemed to be emerging from it in Australia. That was a silly thing to say, because down here in Victoria the number of infections have risen again and greater Melbourne is back in Stage 3 lockdown. It's all gone a bit haywire, so much so that I looked up the origin of the word 'haywire'. (Apparently it comes from logging camps in the USA at the beginning of the twentieth century, when 'haywire outfits' repaired their tools by tying them up with wire.)
This is the second lockdown, but we're still in the first wave. I can't imagine how this Age of Covid19 is going to end. News reports today say that people who have recovered from it only have antibodies for a few months, so we might not be able to build up herd immunity. The article suggested that people might be reinfected over and over again, as we are by the common cold. I always thought the reason we were reinfected by colds was because each of them was a subtly different, that rhinoviruses mutated. But apparently not. And we're all waiting for a vaccine, but that could take years. If one is found at all; we don't have a vaccine for SARS although that was partly because SARS wasn't the sweeping pandemic covid19 is and so scientists stopped looking.
Maybe countries like Australia and New Zealand could eliminate covid19 by closing our borders and keeping them closed, but is that even possible? Given both our economies are so dependent on people and goods coming from overseas, what would an impenetrable border mean? Rationing? A return to local manufacturing? The end of post-WW2 consumerism? The historian part of me is remembering everything I know about the world pre-WW2; if we have to return to home-made clothes I'm going to be in trouble. I can't sew. Okay, time to stop catastrophising. There are real problems without me assuming that the modern world is over.
I have seen enough disasters in my time as an emergency chaplain to know that they don't change people. The generous are still generous; the greedy still greedy. People act either courageously or with cowardice, but the roots of both were always in them. Prime Minister Morrison and his government have never seen a problem that can't be addressed with tax cuts and hard immigration borders; Premier Daniel Andrews has never seen a problem at which he can't throw the police.
Last week nine public housing towers went into 'hard lockdown'. All other lockdowns in Victoria started at midnight and people had a day or more notice. (Which local author Mark Smith suggested to me may be why the Surf Coast is busier than usual even though people in greater Melbourne are meant to be in lockdown.) The housing towers went into lockdown as the lockdowns were announced, and the first people deployed were 500 police. At media conferences the Premier reassured us that people were being fed and taken care of; social media and reports from inside the towers told us otherwise. Generous Melburnians donated money to Trades Hall and the ASRC and the local charities that already worked with tower residents; Pauline Hanson said that the people in the towers were all drug addicts. The TV program on which she spewed her racist venom said that she had crossed a line and would no longer be a 'regular' contributor; the rest of the world pointed out that 'spewing racist venom' is Hanson's entire shtick and for the TV program to pretend that that wasn't the reason they had her on was disingenuous. Disasters don't change people!
It is frustrating to watch Australians appalled that the federal government has halved the number of Australian citizens who can return home each week, and will make them pay for their own quarantine as an 'unprecedented' attack on the rights of Australian citizens. It is as though they have completely missed Peter Dutton becoming the oberfuhrer of Home Affairs after turning Customs and Immigration into the paramilitary 'Border Force'. Or maybe these people just never thought that they or people like them would be affected.
When the government illegally locks up asylum seekers in contravention of the Refugee Convention, is that okay because they are 'boat people' and 'queue jumpers'?
When Australian permanent residents are deported to the countries in which they hold citizenship, even if they left those countries as infants, is that okay because they are 'criminals'?
When the government tried to deport two Indigenous men for such criminal 'bad character', was that still okay?
When the government started to automatically remove Australian citizenship from dual nationals allegedly involved in terrorist organisations, even in the absence of any criminal conviction, was that okay because 'citizenship is a privilege' that can be lost?
When Australia refuses to repatriate Australian children in refugee camps in Syria, is that okay because 'national security'?
When otherwise eligible families are refused permanent residency in Australia because one member has a disability, is that okay because otherwise they might cause a 'burden on taxpayers'?
I am sorry for the Australians whose return home will now be delayed (although it is just a delay; their citizenship has not been revoked) and who will have to pay for their own quarantine (although they can apply for hardship exemptions), but to be surprised by this government's treatment of Australians is ridiculous. What the situation does show is that a government refusing to respect the human rights of any human being is a slippery slope, that will eventually lead it to refuse to respect the human rights of its own citizens. And I usually hate 'slippery slope' arguments!
Ah well, I'll just stay off Twitter for a few days so I don't get any more mansplaining about the evils of this federal government.
One thing about which I do not care is Morrison going to a football match. I am completely indifferent. This is the man who will do nothing about the climate emergency that is making bushfire seasons worse, and who has a trophy of a boat in his office with the words "I stopped these" on it. Given the lives Morrison ruins by his policies, maybe it would be better for him to spend more time at sporting events.
Anyway, I will stay down here on the Bellarine, avoiding travelling to or through Greater Melbourne, and wearing the new mask my mother has made me when venturing out.

From Cuba with Love – A History of Cuban Music: African and European Music are Fused Into Marvelous Rhythms
Renowned Cuban guitar professor Isaac Nicola surrounded by his disciples
Even though most of the elements were already in place, there was no Cuban music before the 19th Century. There is an argument over a composition, Son de la Ma' Teodora allegedly created in Santiago de Cuba in the 1570s. This piece has numerous elements of the son, the quintessential Cuban rhythm, but there are many questions as to when it was actually written.
Early Melodies were Imported
In any case, from the time the Spaniards settled on the island in 1511, the popular music favored by the colonists and criollos (those born in Cuba of European parents) came from Europe. The popular styles were the fandango, paso doble, zapateo and such, later to be joined by the minuet, contredanse and waltz. Europeans also brought their instruments: guitar, violins, horns, military drums and piano
With the arrival of the first shipment of slaves in 1513 a totally different musical philosophy arrived in the island. While the European songs where flowing and smooth, the music of the Africans depended on the heavy beat of native drums.
French colonist and French speaking slaves who escaped the 1791 Haitian Revolution also had a limited impact on Cuban music. The final component was the native people of Cuba, the Tainos. While their music did not survive, some of their instruments like the maracas and the güiro – a dry gourd percussion instrument – did and are used to this day.
In 1836, the first habanera – a simple, cubanized version of the contredanse- appeared. Then in the 1860s La Paloma (The Dove), written by Sebastian Yradier, a Basque living in Havana, became popular in the United States and Mexico. During the following decade the rumba, a lively music of African derivation, and the danzón, more subdue with its French /African origins, became popular. Eventually, the danzón would become Cuba's national dance and by 1884 would be embraced by the dancers of Mexico.
The bolero, a slow, romantic genre in 2/4 time appeared at the beginning of the 20th Century. It became hugely popular and it influenced Puerto Rican and Mexican music as well as American country songs.
From Cuba to the World
In 1928, El Manisero (The Peanut Vendor) a son composer Mosiés Simons based on the pregón (the street peddlers' call) was recorded by Rita Montaner and the legend of Cuban music was born. It sold over a million copies of sheet music in the U.S. alone. Two years later Don Azpiazú and his Havana Casino Orchestra re-recorded the song. While there are nor formal sale numbers from the time, it is estimated that Azpiazú's version became the first Cuban song to sell more than one million records in the U.S.
El Manisero started a wrongly labeled rumba craze in the U.S and Europe. The complexity of the various Cuban rhythms was lost on most people, so rumba, exotic sounding and easy to say, was used (like salsa today) internationally to describe Cuban music.
The conga, another fast, Afro-Cuban dance, became the rage in the U.S during the late 1930s. It was popularized by Cuban-born band leader and singer Desi Arnaz.
The next Cuban music craze came to the U.S. in 1945. The rhythm was the mambo, literally conversation with the gods. While the first mambo had been written in 1938 by brothers Israel "Cachao" and Orestes López it would not become popular until band leader Dámaso Pérez Prado gave it the brassy, upbeat style that the genre is known for.
Nine years later the cha-cha-chá arrived in North America and it brought with it the charanga band. The charanga or typical Cuban band is nothing more than a French chamber orchestra composed of two or more violins, bass, piano and flute with percussion instruments added. These usually are: the tumbadora, a bass drum of African origin: the timabales, kettle drum of Spanish military origin and the already mentioned guiro.
As legend has it, Enrique Jorrín, the creator of the cha-cha-chá, was playing violin for the charanga Orquesta América at a Havana night club, when he realized the tourists, mostly Americans, had problems dancing the syncopated son. He decided to come up with a slower tempo dance music that could be easily mastered by any dancer. So, cha-cha-chá was born. The new genre received its name from some professional dancers that felt the movements of their feet sounded like cha-cha-chá. To Jorrín's surprise his newfangled style of music not only caught up among tourist but among Cuban dancers, too.
After Fidel Castro took power in 1959, Cuban music took a decisively political turn with La Nueva Trova. The genre has its roots on Cuban folk music, but the message is always political. Other rhythms like timba have developed in the island since, but are not as well known internationally.
In the 1960s, folk singer Peter Seeger and the folk-rock group the Sandpipers popularized an old – written in 1928 – Cuban guajira (a country music style with a combination of ¾ and 6/8 rhythms) named Guantanamera (Girl from Guantanamo) reviving interest for Cuban music in North America.
The latest worldwide rage of Cuban music started in 1996, when American guitarist Ry Cooder gathered a group of old Cuban musicians in Havana and recorded the Buena Vista Social Club. The popularity of the old style songs they recorded had brought Cuban music full cycle.

Seed Decay and Seedling Blights of Corn
Some years, early season stand establishment problems are widespread and, in some cases, severe- especially in early planted corn fields. The weather pattern during and immediately after planting is a major factor contributing to those problems. Corn which begins to germinate before periods of cold or wet weather in April or early May tends to show damage from saturated soils, cold soil temperatures, frost injury, herbicide injury, nitrogen deficiencies, seed decay and seedling blights. In some fields the seed decay and seedling blight may progress into crown decay resulting in even more severe stunting and yellowing of plants. If weather patterns are favorable for germination and emergence of corn and not as favorable for development of corn seed and seedling diseases, there will be a substantial reduction in seed decay and seedling blight problems in corn.
Corn planting has been moving along with weather delays in some areas of the state. The unusual fluctuations in weather conditions (near record highs one weekend followed by lows the next weekend) make it difficult to predict how severe corn seed decay and seedling blights will be this year.
Seed decay and seedling blights of corn are generally caused by soil-inhabiting fungi such as species of Pythium, Fusarium, Diplodia, Rhizoctonia and Penicillium. These fungi may rot the seed prior to germination or cause preemergence or postemergence seedling blight. Affected seeds are usually discolored and soft and may be overgrown with fungi. Rotted seed may be difficult to find because they decompose very rapidly and because soil adheres fairly tightly to the decomposing seed.
With preemergence seedling blights, the seed germinates but the seedlings are killed before they emerge from the soil. The coleoptile and primary roots are usually discolored and have a wet, rotted appearance. With postemergence seedling blights, the seedlings emerge through the soil surface before developing symptoms. Seedlings tend to yellow, wilt and die. Discolored, sunken lesions are usually evident on the mesocotyl. Eventually the mesocotyl becomes soft and water soaked. The root system is usually poorly developed, and roots are discolored, water soaked and slough off. If the primary root system and mesocotyl are severely affected before the nodal or permanent root system has developed, the plants have little chance of surviving.
Most of the fungi which cause seed decay and seedling blight of corn may also contribute to decay of the permanent root system and crown rot of young plants. Tips of the permanent root system may be water soaked and discolored with the outer layers sloughing off. The base of the crown on the young plant is discolored and soft. This discoloration may be evident on the outside of the plant but may be more evident in internal tissues if the crown is split open. The internal crown tissues may be discolored ranging from light pink to light brown or dark brown to black and the texture may be very soft and spongy. Severely affected plants are not likely to survive. Less severely affected plants may survive but may remain stunted and low in vigor throughout the rest of the season.
The Pythium, Fusarium, Diplodia, Rhizoctonia and Penicillium species which cause seed decay, seedling blight and crown decay are common in soils throughout the state. If conditions are favorable for germination and emergence, these fungi may not have the opportunity to invade seed, germinating seed or young seedlings so seed decay, seedling blights and crown rot will not be significant problems. On the other hand, conditions that are not favorable for germination and emergence, give these soil fungi more time to attack the seed and developing plants.
Numerous other factors also contribute to early season corn establishment problems. Insect damage, nutrient imbalances, herbicide injury, soil conditions and environmental factors, especially saturated soil conditions and oxygen deprivation, may also cause or contribute to early season corn establishment problems. Corn seedling blights are more severe in wet soils, in low lying areas in a field or in soils that have been compacted or remain wet for an extended period of time. Low soil temperatures (50-55°F) and wet soil conditions especially favor Pythium seed decay and seedling blight. Disease severity is also affected by planting depth, soil type, seed quality, mechanical injury to seed, soil crusting, herbicide injury or other factors which delay germination and emergence of corn.
Planting high quality seed into a good seedbed when soil temperatures are above 50F will help minimize these early season problems. Virtually all field corn seed comes with a fungicide seed treatment. Hopper box treatments can be used to supplement the existing seed treatment.
Outlook- unfortunately, there are no controls for seed decay, seedling blights and crown decay in corn at this point. With good growing conditions, marginally affected plants might recover and take off. If stressful conditions continue, marginally affected plants may continue to decline and more plants may show symptoms. Also, although warm, drier conditions would be helpful; hot, dry conditions, especially with drying winds would not be helpful. Warm temperatures with drying winds could stress plants with poor root systems causing them to wilt, turn gray-green to brown in color and even die.

Q: How to setup OpenVPN in ubuntu 16.04 desktop over a Proxy server? My college provides Internet through a proxy server, I need to login my username and password to access internet.
I have seen installation methods of openVPN but they don't talk about how to configure it over a proxy server.
How can I configure OpenVPN to use my proxy and login credentials to connect to VPN?

A: You can connect to remote server through proxy by openvpn command line options like this:
sudo openvpn --config /path/to/config-file.ovpn --http-proxy proxy_server_addr port

Or if proxy uses socks:
sudo openvpn --config /path/to/config-file.ovpn --socks-proxy proxy_server_addr port

If proxy server requiers authentication, the console prompt you to enter your username and password. otherwise you can create a file that contains username and password in each line and append filename to the command:
sudo openvpn --config /path/to/config-file.ovpn --http-proxy proxy_server_addr port authfile

Brexit – In hindsight, who was right?
10 November 2016 | In the news
After all the histrionics of the debate, we look back at the dire warnings and blithe assurances we were given by both sides, and consider some inconvenient truths they forgot to mention…
On June 23rd 2016 the UK referendum resulted in a vote to leave the EU.
Prior to the vote there were both dire warnings and blithe assurances from the two sides about what would happen to the economy in the event of avote to leave.
So who was right?
Before coming to a view, it is worth considering what shape the economy was in before the Brexit referendum. And, at least in relative terms, the answer is: not bad.
After being the G7 country with the slowest growth before joining the EU, the UK had seen the fastest growth in prosperity among the G7 countries since joining.
We had also experienced a faster bounce back from the Global Financial Crisis of 2008/ 9 than the Eurozone countries. This was due in part to having an independent currency that could be allowed to devalue, and for which new money could be created wholesale. The euphemism coined for this practice was quantitative easing – and the country saw nearly £400bn of it between 2008 and 2012.
In contrast the Eurozone countries were tied to a single central currency over which they had no individual national control. Disagreements within the zone about the wisdom of quantitative easing meant that the Eurozone was a late starter in following this course, and some would say this has slowed its recovery.
In line with its greater growth and faster recovery from the GFC, unemployment in the UK is lower than in most of the Eurozone: only Germany among the major EU economies has a lower unemployment rate.
In fact, and with timing which may go down in history as somewhat ironic, GDP in the UK actually rose just before the Brexit vote … though we didn't find out a bout it until afterwards.
What did the two sides said would happen to the economy if the country voted to leave the EU on June 23rd?
Let's start with the Brexiteers, spearheaded by (among others) Nigel Farage, Michael Gove, Boris Johnson and Andrea Leadsom. Among their more loudly trumpeted claims were:
We would stop paying £13bn a year to the EU
We would have an extra £350m a week to spend on the NHS
GDP would rise by 4% by 2030, as would average disposable income
Prices on goods and services would fall by up to 8%
Looking a little more closely at the first of these claims, we pay about £13bn a year to the EU, and we get back about £4.5bn, so we make a net contribution of £8.5bn. To put that in context, it is about 7% of what we spend on the NHS.
The net EU contribution accounts for £1 out of every £100 the UK government spends.
There was a lot of talk before the referendum of the NHS benefitting from this saving to the tune of £350m a week – talk from which all the leading Brexiteers busily distanced themselves in the days following the referendum result.
The 4% rise in both GDP and disposable income was predicted by Economists For Brexit. This body, which included former government adviser, HSBC and Deloitte economist and Daily Telegraph columnist Roger Bootle, seemed to draw most of its projections from a fairly narrow range of sources – most notably from Patrick Minford, Professor of Applied Economics at Cardiff Business School, Cardiff University.
Economists For Brexit were the main economists' voice trumpeting the benefits of Brexit. Their views, and those of Professor Minford, were challenged and attacked by pro-Remain economists, of whom there seemed to be rather more.
Lined up against Economists For Brexit, in ascending order of doom-mongering for the UK economy if we left the EU, were Oxford Economics, the NIESR, forecasts from the CBI/ PwC, the OECD, HM Treasury and the LSE. In contrast with the Brexiteers' forecast of 4% growth, both HM Treasury and the LSE forecast GDP contraction of over 7% following Brexit, and George Osborne claimed that households would be £4,300 a year worse off.
"Leave the EU and the facts are: Britain would be permanently poorer. Britain's families would be permanently poorer too" George Osborne
Even Barack Obama came over here to tell the Brits what a bad idea it would be to leave the EU, and Christine Lagarde, head of the International Monetary Fund, made dire predictions about the impact Brexit would have on the world economy.
All these contributions from economists and politicians inevitably themselves became part of the debate, with Michael Gove famously saying at one point that the voters had had enough of experts. Based on the weight of expert economic opinion ranged against Brexit and the way the vote ultimately went, it looks as if he was right!
So what actually happened following the result, and what's been happening since?
The result was a shock to the Leavers as much as to the Remainers. And it had an immediate impact – not only the political bloodbath that immediately followed, but on the economy as well.
On the morning of the referendum result Mark Carney, governor of the Bank of England, made a statement aimed at reassuring the markets and the nation. This included a pledge of £250bn liquid assets to be made available immediately to the banking sector.
And in short order the bank subsequently announced:
A cut in official interest rates to 0.25%, the first such move since March 2009
Plans to pump an additional £60bn in electronic cash into the economy to buy government bonds, extending the existing quantitative easing (QE) programme to £435bn in total
Another £10bn in electronic cash to buy corporate bonds from firms "making a material contribution to the UK economy"
Up to £100bn of new funding to banks as a carrot to help them pass on the base rate cut, together with a stick in the form of the threat of penalties if they failed to do so
Growth was now predicted come to a near-standstill over coming months, and to be much weaker in 2017 and 2018 than had been predicted before the Brexit vote.
In addition the growth forecast for the UK for the following year was slashed by an unprecedented amount. Against the dollar, the pound fell below $1.30, initially to as low as $1.28. A year before it had been worth $1.57 – a fall of 17%.
To put this in context this is only the second time the pound had fallen this low against the dollar since the dollar first came into existence in 1792. The decline against the Euro was slightly less steep at nearer 14%, and did not seem to make much waves in the media.
One of the most immediate consequences of this was that it made foreign holidays more expensive for British tourists, and it also increased materials import costs for manufacturers as well as those of finished products for the rest of us.
However, it also immediately benefitted the UK's tourism sector, as a weaker pound made Britain a cheaper destination for overseas tourists. The travel analytics firm ForwardKeys said that flight bookings to the UK rose 7.1% in
the immediate aftermath of the vote. Caissa Touristic, a tour operator specialising in Chinese travel to Europe, saw a 20% increase in enquiries and bookings for the UK that summer compared with the same period the previous year.
Even before Sterling's devaluation, in the month of the referendum, Britain's trade deficit widened to £5.1bn after imports hit a new high.
The population's immediate response to the referendum result was to go shopping.
The UK's services sector saw a record rise in August. The sector, which includes everything from financial services through to cafes and shops, accounts for about 78% of the UK economy.
Confidence among UK consumers fell immediately after the referendum, and further the following month, but it then improved, though at the time of writing it still remains below pre-referendum levels. And this confidence is reflected in our spending patterns: UK consumers made 168 million purchases on credit cards in July: this was higher than both June and the average of the previous
six months.
This continued consumer spending is also reflected in UK retail sales figures. Sales have generally been rising for the past three years, and in July they were up 5.9% on the same month last year, helped by warmer weather. This may have been a form of retail therapy, or it may be that with the weaker Pound people wanted to make their planned purchases quickly before the full impact of Sterling's slide made itself felt on the high street.
The Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors expected house prices to fall over the first three months following Brexit, then rise again over a 12-month period. In the event prices did not initially fall as expected, but continued to rise, though expectations for the top end of the market are of substantial declines in value – as much as 10%.
It is a clearer story when it comes to commercial property. Demand for London office space bounced back from a pre-referendum dip, according to the commercial property firm CBRE. The amount of space being taken by firms in the capital rose to almost a million square feet in July, up 24% on June.
What became of the economic forecasters who made such dramatically positive and negative pronouncements?
Let's start with the Brexiteers.
Boris Johnson is the new Foreign Secretary, and probably the first ever to be photographed with a muppet. This neatly illustrates how the role of Foreign Secretary has been devalued since the heady days of Lords David Owen and Peter Carrington, as prime ministers like Tony Blair and David Cameron have taken much of it upon themselves.
This has been reflected in the appointment of a string of ineffectual lightweights like Jack Straw, David Milliband and William Hague to the job. Boris would seem to follow in this tradition.
Andrea Leadsom, having failed in her bid to become Prime Minister following David Cameron's resignation, now has the job as agriculture minister of explaining to farmers why they will be better off without the EU subsidies which currently account for 78% of their profits.
Nigel Farage went campaigning for Donald Trump in the US, where he made even less impact than Barack Obama campaigning for Remain when he came over here. But at least most British voters knew who Barack Obama was.
And Michael Gove has been keeping a relatively low profile, tentatively returning to his former job as a Times columnist in September 2016.
What of the economic forecasters in the Remain camp?
George Osborne obviously won't be bringing in that emergency budget he promised if the nation had the temerity to vote for Brexit. And as things stand his parliamentary constituency will cease to exist in 2018.
Other coalition government and shadow economics ministers from the Remain campaign have taken up second careers in light entertainment: both Vince Cable and then Ed Balls competed on Strictly Come Dancing. And if dancing offers them relief from the cut and thrust of politics, it also guarantees them more viewers than their more important day jobs ever did.
Meanwhile Christine Lagarde, head of the IMF, has got herself mixed up in a complicated and still unfolding scandal in French politics. It involves her alleged 'negligence' (downgraded from allegations of embezzlement) over a controversial €400m compensation payment from the (now defunct) bank Crédit Lyonnais to one Bernard Tapie, an ally of Nicolas Sarkozy, in 2008.
At the risk of over-simplifying a complex case, Lagarde is basically accused of wrongly nodding this payment through when she was Sarkozy's finance minister. After eight years of trying to make the case go away, she will now have to stand trial for her part in these murky goings on, while Sarkozy is taking another tilt at the French presidency.
What is not an over-simplification is to say that the heads of the IMF have not covered themselves in glory over the past few years: Lagarde is the third successive MD of the IMF to face charges.
Her immediate predecessor, Dominic Strauss-Kahn was charged with attempted rape in the US. This charge was subsequently dropped and he made a private settlement with his accuser, but he was then put on trial in France on a separate charge of 'aggravated pimping.' His wide-eyed claim in his defence that he had no idea that all the women at the orgies he was attending were prostitutes was somehow believed.
Strauss-Kahn had taken over as head of the IMF from Rodrigo Rato, a former Minister of Finance in Spain. Rato was arrested in 2015 and charged with fraud, embezzlement and money laundering in a €12m credit card corruption scheme involving 'secret' corporate credit cards at the troubled bank (Bankia), of which he had been president. His case went to trial in Spain in September 2016.
It is becoming increasingly difficult not to see parallels between the IMF and that other tax-exempt bastion of the benefits to all of internationalism, FIFA.
What else is in store for the economy?
When Mark Carney was grilled on September 7th by the Treasury Select committee, he noted that UK GDP growth of 0.6% in the 3 months prior to the referendum result had halved in the period following it. The British Chambers of Commerce recently cut their estimate of GDP growth for 2017 from 2.3% to 1% – which would be the country's worst since the GFC of 2009.
In their words: "Although individual businesses continue to report strong trading conditions, the overall picture suggests a sharp slowdown in UK growth lies ahead" Adam Marshall, BCC.
Similarly, the bank of England reduced their 2017 forecast to 0.8%. Service and construction output are now beginning to show signs of sharp decline, but some of the figures are contradictory. Meanwhile Sterling has continued to take a pounding in money markets, and this was exacerbated by a widely reported 'flash crash', supposedly triggered by mistake.
While the current thinking is that the UK will avoid outright recession, the economy is expected – at least in some quarters – to continue to slow, which will also have a knock-on effect on tax revenues. However, at the beginning of November the Bank revised its 2017 forecast back upwards to 1.4%, suggesting a belief that the Brexit impact will be less than originally feared. Further changes of mind should not be ruled out.
Inflation is expected by some economists to rise as a result of all this QE (they have been forecasting this since its introduction in 2008, but this time they seem to really mean it), and by the falling value of the Pound. This would finally be good news for savers, but less good for household incomes, pensioners on fixed annuities, and for retail sales generally.
The form and the terms of Brexit are still completely unknown, and the safest prediction is that as they become clear they will have a huge impact on the UK economy…either positive or negative.
But services now account for 78% of GDP, and the UK is the second biggest exporter of services in the world after the US. Of this about 8% is from financial services, and London is currently the world's capital city for financial services.
Brexit now makes the UK financial services sector much more vulnerable. Some forecasters expect a decline of up to 10% in this sector – and several US banks were recently reported to be threatening to move their European HQs out of London.
So on balance it looks likely to be bad news for the economy in the short to medium term – but how bad is not yet clear…
What else could affect the UK economy?
Events elsewhere send ripples through the global economy, and hence the UK economy too. Larry Summers, the US economist and former Secretary of the Treasury, stated in June 2016 during the US presidential campaign that the election of Donald Trump to the US presidency could trigger a global recession.
His actual words were: "If he were elected, I would expect a protracted recession to begin within 18 months. The damage would in all likelihood be felt far beyond the United States"
And The Economist Intelligence Unit went on record with its agreement. Now we'll get to see if they were right, and we might find out the hard way. On the plus side, President Trump might put the UK at the front of the queue on trade talks.
Meanwhile concerns are growing that the currently highly inflated corporate credit bubble in China will burst, and may do so soon. There is particular concern about the banking sector, where much of the debt resides. As the Bank for International Settlements put it in September 2016: "The [Chinese] banking sector may become an amplifier of shocks rather than an absorber of shocks".
The Bank for International Settlements warned in its quarterly report that month that China's credit to GDP gap is both the highest to date and in a completely different league from any other major country tracked by the institution. Perhaps more significantly, it is also substantially higher than that in the US just before the subprime bubble there burst as the Lehman crisis unfolded.
Adding fuel to these concerns, 2015 was China's worst year for economic growth in 25 years, both in production and in demand. If the credit bubble there bursts it could be like 2009 all over again – but with the QE card already having been played. And it is not clear what other cards governments hold.
The papers have also recently been full of alarm about the health of Deutsche Bank, whose share value has halved since January, and the bank's $14bn fine by the US Department of Justice in September won't have helped. There are similarly growing concerns about the health of the whole banking sector in Italy.
Meanwhile the UN is getting increasingly worried about spiralling corporate debt throughout the world's emerging economies. As the annual report of the UN Conference on Trade and Development in September 2016 put it, with admirable understatement: "Alarm bells have been ringing over the explosion of corporate debt levels in emerging economies, which now exceed $25 trillion. Damaging deflationary spirals cannot be ruled out"
Any one, or combination, of these alarmist scenarios could have a significant negative impact on the UK economy.
Finally, if the Transatlantic Trade & Investment Partnership (TTIP) between the US and EU goes through, the UK will be left out of the world's largest trade agreement, which will account for 45% of global GDP. However, this looks increasingly unlikely, at least in the near future, as resistance in the EU is increasing among both populations and politicians, and the Trump administration in the US is likely to be considerably less enthusiastic about it than the outgoing Obama administration was.
As a footnote to TIPP, the equivalent trade deal with Canada, the Comprehensive economic and Trade Agreement (CETA), has many of the same controversial elements and is much closer to ratification, so the UK may yet benefit or suffer from this agreement (depending on your point of view), and do so for the next 20 years if it is ratified before we leave the EU. While Canada does not sound like much of a big deal compared with the US, CETA will cover US subsidiaries in Canada, so it may in effect produce a form of 'cut down' TTIP through the back door.
In a nutshell then, the UK economy remains in reasonable comparative shape, but the declining Pound is a mixed blessing, and the real impact of Brexit will only emerge when the terms become clear.
Meanwhile strong winds are gathering in the world economy, especially in the Far East, and perhaps too following Trump's win in the US presidential election.
Interesting times indeed.

Table / table calc formatting help!
each row is a Measure and the counts are for the last completed month (Sept in this case). The % change is a YoY measure (table calc) comparing the measure to it's same month from the year prior. So Sept 2018 compared to Sept 2017 as a % change. The boxes at the top are simply dimensions by which the measures are split.
In the attached workbook (using Superstore as a POC), sheet 3 I can get close to the above but I'm getting messed up on the measures on row or column - I need some measures in column, some in row, and I'm not even sure Tableau can do this (or I need a different approach). In Tableau I have a 2 measures for each 'measure' (if that makes sense): A count, and a % change table calc. I'm hiding the row for 2017 which gives me a clean row of count, and %.
BUT - I need additional measures as rows - as shown in the screenshot above. So I need the measures on the row shelf, but I also need the % changed measure on the column shelf, in order to maintain my nice clean 1 'measure' per row look. When I try to bring in additional measures it all goes pear shaped.
Potential workarounds are create a table per measure (quantity, sales, etc) and arrange them on a dashboard. Or - create 1 table with all measures, but no % change measures, and then create individual worksheets for the % change, and float them over the table next to the counts on a dashboard. Both these would technically work, but would like a cleaner approach if possible!

3. Re: Table / table calc formatting help!
Hey Venkatram, definitely getting closer! Is it possible to pivot the whole thing so the segments are the columns (at the top)?
I tried it myself but I'm not fully understanding what you're doing in your solution...It seems you've created a placeholder measure that's empty and then you're dragging a different measure onto the text shelf for that placeholder measure? Would that work when columns represent dimensions instead of measures?

1. Step- Created a placeholder for measure.


Perhaps inspired by Rio, my half-marathon training is well and truly back on track, running 3 miles on Tuesday evening, 5 miles on Friday evening and 8 miles on Sunday evening. It's still not easy and will never come naturally but I do feel stronger and more determined with each run that passes, just as well seeing as the half-marathon is now only 6 weeks away and one week of those we'll be on holiday. Of course that holiday to Cornwall and our trip later to New York are spurring me on too, there's a very swanky Spa at the latter destination with my name on it and I want to look fab-u-lous! There was the most stunning sky on Friday evening as I set off late in the day and on Sunday it was a mixture of walking and running as I couldn't help but take in landmarks through south-east London, heading from our home up into Blackheath and then down into Greenwich and along the river.
-In other happy moments, I've been feeling a little autumnal and wearing this new jumper I bought last weekend. The colour is lovely and something that doesn't turn up much in my wardrobe.
-Popping to House of Fraser in my lunch break to pick some more of my favourite Origins moisturiser, A Perfect World. I've been using it for a few years now and just love the smell and how good it is for my skin. Plus, no nasty SLS and parabens!
-Another little step closer to our finished front door make-over as we had the glass panel replaced to the side. Such a quick job done in just 10 minutes. It's not the forever front door but until we can figure that one out we're enjoying a little renovation project.
-Having a leisurely Saturday morning visit to Maltby Street Market in Bermondsey and enjoying breakfast and a little bit of shopping. Such a gorgeous morning.
-Tidying my coffee table for a little blog feature in collaboration with Arlo & Jacob. It doesn't normally look so pretty.
-How happy these two continue to make me. They play fight round the house like a tornado and then crash out together. It never even crossed my mind that they would get on as well as they do, especially knowing how fussy cats can be. So far, so good.
-Snapping London in my lunch breaks. It feels so good to get away from my desk even if the weather isn't great or I don't go very far – it's simply about appreciating those little moments and not taking anything for granted, especially this beautiful city.
-Stocking up overnight oats. This is my new favourite food at the moment, it's great for post-run protein and healthy eating and keeps me full at work for ages if I eat it for breakfast rather than wanting to snack mid-morning. Recipe ideas coming up soon!

Atlantis was nothing like Role Of Divine Intervention In The Odyssey Vinny And Joe-Boy Analysis. Siblings at each other's throats for power. Scientists fighting for control of Women In African American Culture natural resources.

Uche Jombo's husband, Kenney Rodriguez seems to be a really sweet and loving man.
My wife is beautiful, gorgeous, loving, caring, amiable and a good cook. Her smiles keep me going and I'm always happy whenever she is around me.
(Laugh) It was really fun because we got to know each other through a friend who happens to be a business partner but it took some few months and persuasion before she finally agreed to marry me because I told her point blank that I want to marry her and all. She paused and never said anything. Then there was this time we both went on jet skiing, one thing led to another and she said she was going to kill me because it took a little distance before we could get to the boat; so I told her if you want to kill me then marry me because that will make it a bit easier and the rest is history now.
Uche is not just an actress, she doubles as my better half, I don't want to use the word lucky because we both liked and loved each other and also saw that we could strengthen our affair so we got married which we both are happy about. Let me just say we are both lucky to have each other.
I understand her profession before we got married so if a role demands her to go nasty; it now lies in her hand to choose whether to pick up the role or not after reading through the script. I know her for something that she is usually selective when it comes to movie roles and that is why you see her go extra miles in her own personal efforts. I know she understand the roles that is suitable for her.
I don't consider it long distance because whenever she has nothing doing as regards film production in Nigeria; she is definitely with me.

FINDING THE FORMULA FOR F1 IN INDIA

[Author – Avirath Pareek, Final year Law Student at Symbiosis Law School, Pune]
To say that the history of India and Formula One has been a bumpy ride for both parties would be a massive understatement. Since the late 90s, India has had an association with the most popular motorsport in some way or the other. From its humble beginnings with the Federation of Motorsports Club of India (FMSCI) bearing the broadcast expenses for the live coverage of the races on Doordarshan to the now defunct Buddh International Circuit which hosted 3 Grand Prixs in the last decade, the sport hasn't been able to find traction on Indian soil.
In January 2020, the Nielsen report monitoring the global fan base of F1 reported India as the fifth largest market (consisting of 31.1 million fans) in the world. India reported an 87% increase in the audience through television and online streaming. There exists a massive market for the sport which, due to several external factors, has not been tapped into in India. These various issues as well as the possible roadmap moving forward will be discussed as part of this research article.
The yellow flags along the way: issues and obstacles
Formula One has been one of the most recognised sports all across the globe. After the FIFA World Cup and the Summer Olympics, it is one of the most popular spectacles in the sporting industry. India, however, did not have any broadcasting deals for the same and the sport was thus inaccessible to the audience. Vicky Chandok, the former president of the FMSCI reminisced how difficult it was to bring the sport to the television sets of India and the Federation had to pay Doordarshan for the broadcast of this global phenomena. Once the sport reached the masses of the country, the fervour increased and as of 2003, F1 had nearly 360 million viewers for Doordarshan and other private channels. Owing to the rising popularity of F1, the then FIA (The Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile) President Bernie Ecclestone agreed to a deal with Doordarshan for free coverage in India. However, a major dent to this growth came in the form of the Tobacco Bill, passed in the year 2001, which prohibited the advertisement of Tobacco on digital platforms. This resulted in the discontinuation of the free coverage by Doordarshan and hurt the viewership numbers in India. ESPN and Star Sports continued the broadcast and helped the fan base grow further.
The green flag: ignition
The early half of the 2000s saw an immense growth in the viewership and popularity of F1 in India. This was down to several factors. The former "King of Good Times" Vijay Mallya had been sponsoring teams since the late 90s, with Kingfisher backing the Toyota team. In the year 2008, the Business Mogul would then enter team ownership by creating Force India. This further created a sense of belongingness for the Indians towards the sport and this was backed by the rise of Narayan Karthikeyan who raced for the Jordan team in the 2005 season and Karun Chandhok who drove for the Hispania as well as the Lotus teams in 2010 and 2011 respectively.
As early as 1997, talks had begun for hosting the Indian Grand Prix. The infrastructure required for hosting such an event is massive and requires support from the government. The proposal to build a new circuit was rejected by many of the major cities owing to the lack of financial assistance provided by the State Governments. However, in 2007, the Indian Olympic Association (IOA) and the former CEO of F1 group Bernie Ecclestone entered into a provisional agreement to finally host the inaugural Indian Grand Prix at the Buddh International Circuit in Greater Noida.
On 30th October 2011, when the sound of the engines reverberated throughout the Buddh International Circuit and the lights went out for the inaugural Indian Grand Prix, it was destined to be a historic moment that would pave the path for India's relationship with F1. More than 100,000 spectators turned out for what was the first Grand Prix held in the subcontinent. The inaugural race, hosted by India, was perceived by all fans across the world as an unqualified success. The event far exceeded the expectations and promised a better future for motorsports moving ahead. However, the optimism was short-lived.
The red flags: end of the ride
The early promise generated by the sport would soon face severe red flags on its journey, the first being the declining numbers at the event, from 100,000 in the 2011 edition, soon dipped to 65,000. This was expected by the officials but further reduction in attendance raised concerns among the organisers. However, this wasn't the deal-breaker for the marriage of F1 and India.
The real issue was the lack of government support for the F1 which wasn't even considered as a sport in India. The Ministry of Sport called it more of an entertainment exercise for commercial gains and failed to recognise the sporting aspect of the same. This was an obtuse view held by the Ministry as it failed to appreciate the nuances of Formula One as a sport and the training and effort required to compete at the highest levels. F1 might not be on the priority list of the Government, however, the upside of hosting of events of such magnitude cannot be understated.
The government had made exemptions in the same year for the ICC Cricket World Cup by exempting it from income tax and granted them further special tax exemptions owing to the nature of the event. Such a preferential treatment was not afforded to F1 unfortunately. Furthermore, the events were categorised under Entertainment and were charged 65% in taxes.
In 2011, out of the 19 locations where the races were organised, in 16 of those venues, the government took the initiative of shouldering a part of the licensing fee and created certain exemptions and incentives for the FIA to host the races and have also actively promoted the event across the nation.
The Grand Prixs hosted in India were backed by the Jaypee Group, who had to foot a $500 million bill across the three years, without any support from the government. Such a model was doomed to fail from the start as no private entity can sustain expenses of this nature without any monetary support from external sources. As a result, Jaypee Group incurred heavy losses and could not shoulder the responsibility of hosting such an event after the 2013 Grand Prix. The event was pulled off from the 2014 and 2015 calendars and the five-year plan of hosting the races in India came to a premature divorce.
Recommendations for revival
As of 2020, the Buddh International Circuit, a state of the art facility which now lies defunct, is emblematic of the rocky road faced by F1 in India. In a country that has often favoured one sport's popularity over the others, it does seem difficult to revive a sport which can be considered niche for the Indian market.
The first step towards the revival would be to give the sport the due recognition that it deserves as a sport and not an entertainment exercise. The government must realise the importance of being open to such global spectacles which help boost the profile of a nation. The government's support by providing exemptions and incentives for the hosting of such events could do wonders for the sport as it would reduce the burden on private entities.
Another problem which was faced during the 3 Grand Prixs was the logistical issues owing to the different customs and excise duties which resulted in bureaucratic delays and lack of efficiency. Events of this magnitude require a different approach whereby, separate by-laws or exemptions must be afforded for the smooth functioning.
The FIA itself needs to rectify its approach in India. During their three year stint, they did not market their "product" by themselves and it was the teams and their sponsors who were more active in the promotion of the event. The cost of attending such an event is exponentially higher than any other sporting event which takes place in the country. To attract more fans, it is important to start off with lower pricing of the tickets so as to create a wider audience and generate higher attendance. Such a step would help better penetrate the market in India. Furthermore, it has been seen how certain races across the globe have become a "tourist- attraction", owing to their popularity. The same effect could be replicated by the Indian Grand Prix in the future by pricing itself as per Indian standards so as to allow greater economic benefits arising out of the event.
The chequered flag: conclusion
Formula One continues to be one of the most popular sports all across the globe, with an audience of 1.9 billion people. Its popularity cannot be understated and for a country that aspires to host and compete at the highest levels with other nations with respect to sports, it becomes paramount to revive the Indian Grand Prix. The country has often been criticised of mismanagement when dealing with such sporting events and thus, embracing Formula One as a sport and to reconcile with it would be a step in the right direction. The market in India for F1 cannot be under-estimated. and it becomes important to maximise the popularity it generates amongst the population. It is vital for the nation to broaden its horizons and to give F1 the acceptance and recognition that it deserves as a sport. The future legislations on sports law and policy in India must ensure that the ambit and scope of definition of sports is wide enough to accommodate F1, which might not be a traditional sport, however the level of skill and expertise required to perform cannot be downplayed. The economic benefits to the country as well as the boost in profile in the eyes of the world are not ordinary incentives and must be carefully considered in the long-run. This could further provide an impetus for the growth of motorsport culture in India and could help provide the right platform for teams and drivers in the future. The return of F1 to the Indian soil must be accelerated without the speed-breakers of the years gone by, hampering the joy-ride this time.

Theater Magdeburg is the principal theatre organization in Magdeburg, Germany, the capital of the state Saxony-Anhalt. It was formed in 2004 with the merger of two theatres, the Theater der Landeshauptstadt (Theatre of the state capital) and the Freie Kammerspiele (Free chamber plays). It presents performances of opera, ballet, musical theatre, concerts, and plays. Theater Magdeburg has its own opera, ballet, and theatre companies and is the home of the Magdeburg Philharmonic Orchestra. It has three main performing venues. the Opernhaus (Opera House), the Schauspielhaus (Playhouse), and the DomplatzOpenAir, which is set up each summer near Magdeburg Cathedral.

Opernhaus

Theater Magdeburg's opera house is located at 9 Universitätsplatz   The original theatre, known as the Centraltheater, was built in 1907 and was used as a venue for variety shows and from 1922 for operettas. The Centraltheater was destroyed during the World War II bombings and rebuilt after the war. It re-opened on 21 December 1951 as the Maxim Gorki Theater, named for the Russian playwright Maxim Gorki. In May 1990, shortly after German reunification began, a fire destroyed a large part of the stage. After an extensive project of rebuilding and renovation, the theatre reopened as the Theater der Landeshauptstadt (State Theatre).

Prior to World War II, the city's principal opera house had been the Stadttheater Magdeburg, which opened in 1876. It too was destroyed during the war, but was never rebuilt.

Schauspielhaus

The playhouse is located at 64 Otto-von-Guericke-Straße  It was originally built as the Magdeburg residence of the industrialist  and known as the Villa Klusemann. In 1906 it was sold to the company Harmonie-Gesellschaft who converted into an exclusive venue for dancing, lectures, concerts, and social gatherings. It was occupied by American troops immediately after World War II and then converted into a provisional theatre for the city. From 1990 until its merger into Theater Magdeburg, it was known as the Freie Kammerspiele after its resident ensemble.

DomplatzOpenAir
The DomplatzOpenAir is a temporary outdoor theatre  which hosts plays, musicals, operas and concerts during the months of June and July. It seats approximately 1200 people and is dismantled at the end of each summer season. Although it was first used with the name DomplatzOpenAir in 2007, its roots go back to the SommerNächte (Summer Nights) outdoor performances held by the Freie Kammerspiele.

Administration

The first Intendant (General Director) of Theater Magdeburg after the merger was the German stage director  who served from 2004 to 2009. Prior to the merger he had been the artistic director of the Freie Kammerspiele. He was succeeded by Karen Stone, a British opera and stage director, who had previously been the artistic director of Dallas Opera. In 2017, her contract as Intendant was renewed through 2022. As from August 2022 on Julien Chavaz is the new General director.<ref>Tessenow, Katja (28 November 2020) Volksstimme

Ward is coming off a season where he finished with 46 receptions for 381 yards and two touchdowns, the lowest totals in each category since he was a rookie in 1998. He took a back seat on the field to younger players like Antonio Brown, Emmanuel Sanders and Mike Wallace. Despite his back seat on the field, it seems that most of the players including those who have basically taken over his on the field role view him as a leader of the team and in the club house and want him to stay with the team. Ward was asked after the Steelers loss to the Broncos if he was considering retirement and he said absolutely not.
The Steelers have adjusted the contracts of CB Ike Taylor and linebackers Lawrence Timmons and LaMarr Woodley. Restructuring might be necessary even with the likes of S Troy Polamalu who is schedule to make $6.25 million next season and QB Ben Roethlisberger who is scheduled to make $11.6 million next season.
Ward, now age 35, has said on venues such as Twitter that he wants to retire as a Steeler. Ward said, "I don't normally like to respond to rumors, but as I've said all along, I want to finish my career with the Pittsburgh Steelers. And as I've already told the organization, I am willing to work with them to restructure my contract to make sure this happens." The organization might not be as willing given the options they have with younger and cheaper players.
If the reports are true, Steelers fans are about to find out just how much of a business the NFL is. Ward may play next season, but it likely will not be in a Steelers uniform. It's a sad reality of the NFL and all sports. In the end, it's just business.
