Apple to Announce Move from Intel to ARM Chips for Mac at WWDC 2020
By Imran Hussain
Jun 9, 2020 07:03 EDT
Apple will be announcing its plans to transition Macs from Intel to ARM chips during its Worldwide Developer Conference on June 22.
As reported by Bloomberg, Apple plans to introduce ARM-based Macs powered by its own custom 5nm A-series chips, by 2021. To ensure that developers have sufficient time to update their apps to work with the new architecture, Apple will be announcing its transition plan, and providing development tools so that developers can be prepared ahead of time. TSMC will be handling production for 5nm A-series chips for Macs.
Wccftech's Most Anticipated Adventure Games of 2022 – Darkness & Light
Under codename Kalamata, Apple has been on its Intel-to-ARM switch since 2018. The company is working on at least 3 ARM processors for Macs. We had previously covered these ARM processors for Mac:
The first of these processors will be a 5nm 12 core chip, with eight high-performance cores called Firestorm, and four energy-efficient cores, named Icestorm. Apple will be using a similar architecture that it uses for iPhone and iPad, which also utilize a mix of high performance and energy efficient cores. Gradually, Apple will double or quadruple the number of cores in its A-series processors, compared to the current Intel offerings in Macs.
The first of these Macs is expected to be a 12-inch MacBook with an ARM processor. Thanks to the new processors, the new Macs will provide better CPU and graphics performance, support for machine learning thanks to a Neural Engine chip, and improved power-efficiency.
Inside Apple, tests of new Macs with the Arm-based chips have shown sizable improvements over Intel-powered versions, specifically in graphics performance and apps using artificial intelligence, the people said. Apple's processors are also more power-efficient than Intel's, which may mean thinner and lighter Mac laptops in the future.
Apple will start from an ARM-based MacBook, but over time, it plans to switch the Xeon-based iMac Pro to ARM too.
This is the third time that Apple is performing a complete architecture migration - something that Microsoft has not successfully achieved even once. Apple had migrated from Motorola to PowerPC chips in 1990, and completed the transition from PowerPC to Intel chips in 2007. This time, the company will be switching to its own custom-made processors. If any company knows how to handle such massive architecture shifts, it is Apple.
We had previously predicted that Apple's announcement for its transition plans could be made at WWDC 2020. Considering the launch timeframe for the new hardware, giving developers a new SDK this month will give them sufficient time to migrate their apps.
As per our previous coverage of Apple's move from Intel to ARM, the company should announce its transition plans at WWDC 2020. This would give developers enough time to work with the new SDK, fix issues and launch updates to their apps. The transition is never a bug-free process, as the tools used to migrate apps from one architecture to another are also work-in-progress, which makes it difficult. However, Apple has done such transitions before, and better than any other tech company out there so there is no doubt that they will be able to do it again.
Apart from the transition plans, Apple will also be announcing iOS 14, iPadOS 14, watchOS 7, tvOS 14 and macOS 10.16. The company will be aiming at improving performance with iOS 14 and iPadOS 14 releases, as iOS 13 was heavily criticized for being slow and buggy.

Biden: Nothing we can do to change the trajectory of the pandemic, now he tells us?
Posted on January 25, 2021 January 25, 2021 by Christian Twiste
In a stunning reversal, President Joe Biden surrenders to the spread over the next few months and promises only to do what's already been done. Of course, the media barely noticed, they'd rather print the new administration's obvious hackery, without evidence as they say. Come on, give me a break, man!
On Friday, President Joe Biden finally admitted the obvious, "There is nothing we can do to change the trajectory of the pandemic in the next several months."
Needless to say, this is in sharp contrast to his promises prior to taking office. Just a few months ago, he declared confidently "Trump should take responsibility. If you elect me, I will be the COVID killer." On October 15, he tweeted, "We're eight months into this pandemic, and Donald Trump doesn't have a plan to get this virus under control. I do." Less than two weeks ago, he said in a prime time address "Together, we'll change the course of the pandemic."
Before Election Day // after Election Day pic.twitter.com/6jYWv66Io3
— Drew Holden (@DrewHolden360) January 22, 2021
The plan, way back then, was to unleash "science" and "truth" to bring an end to coronavirus. Today, apparently, even science and truth can't stop the spread of a highly infectious disease by government fiat. One wonders what we've been doing with the lockdowns, masking, and other restrictions. Who knew?
This stunning reversal was barely noticed by the mainstream media. Maeve Reston offered this scintillating analysis on CNN.com, "President Joe Biden tempered his ever-present optimism with a dose of realism about the potent staying power of this deadly pandemic and the fact that the nation's vaccine distribution system is a long way from becoming an efficient machine."
Ms. Reston continued, "For many Americans who feel trapped in a never-ending season of grief, isolation and disappointment, the start of a new year, a new administration and a new Congress seemed to offer hope — however naive it was — that there would be some flip of a switch that could speed up the nation's lurching process for getting shots into arms."
"However naive it was," perhaps no better statement sums up the willful blindness on display. Of course, left unsaid was who, in fact, was naive? The people that voted for Biden? The mainstream media that parroted the idea that he has some master plan to save us all? Biden himself? All of the above?
The LA Times is still in the naive column, apparently, running an editorial just a couple of days ago: "Finally a president with a COVID plan." NBC News, equally naive, reports that "Experts praise Biden's Covid-19 plan, but warn that undoing Trump era mistakes will take time." Dr. David Battinelli, chief medical officer and senior vice president at Northwell Health, told them in an email: "The plan put forward by President Biden and his team of experts is spot on. It is based on the recommendations of leading scientific and health care experts and should have been the plan all along."
The experts were responding to a 198-page strategy, apparently boiled down to seven key points, three of which are more salient and worthy of note than others. Increasing testing, this despite new WHO guidelines released just last week claiming PCR testing was unreliable and is no longer enough to identify a case on its own. The use of the already well-used Defense Production Act to increase supply of protective equipment, a step taken over 6 months ago, and billions of dollars plus technical aid for vaccine distribution.
"State officials and public health experts have begged for these three actions in particular," Polly Price, a professor of law and public health at Emory University said in an email, without, of course noting, that all of this has already been done, multiple times.
Mere naivety, however, cannot explain how CNN was caught earlier this week peddling a complete lie by the Biden administration. The network declared confidently that "Newly sworn in President Joe Biden and his advisers are inheriting no coronavirus vaccine distribution plan to speak of from the Trump administration, sources tell CNN, posing a significant challenge for the new White House."
"There is nothing for us to rework. We are going to have to build everything from scratch," one source informed them. They reported further, "Another source described the moment that it became clear the Biden administration would have to essentially start from 'square one' because there simply was no plan as: 'Wow, just further affirmation of complete incompetence.'"
"Incompetence" might be a term better suited to CNN itself. The story was so ludicrous, the sources so obviously Biden political hacks, even The Daily Beast and The Washington Post couldn't believe it. The Daily Beast's Sam Stein noted, "There was, indeed, a plan from Trump. I listened in on govs calls on vaccine distribution. The plan had obvious shortcomings, but to say there's nothing to rework is not true."
"Government officials did set up a system that's distributed 36M doses to states," Dan Diamond of the Washington Post confirmed. "Either the situation on the ground is better than team Biden acknowledges, or Biden's target is less ambitious than it seems."
Perhaps, CNN could've listened to the famed Doctor Anthony Fauci, somehow quoted and simultaneously ignored in their own article. He, whose words were once treated as gospel, said "We're certainly not starting from scratch, because there is activity going on in the distribution." The CNN journalist's response? Fauci is a "holdover from the Trump administration."
Or perhaps CNN simply could've believed their lying eyes: 36 million doses have been distributed already, and 20 million have been administered to actual people. We're now administering approximately a million vaccinations per day, sometimes more.
How does any of this occur without a plan? The CDC even provides a simple infographic to illustrate the process, identifying all the places where the vaccine will be made available: Hospitals, Large Clinics Outpatient, Pharmacies, Long Term Care Facilities, Doctor's Offices, Indian Health Services, Public Health Clinics, Mobile Units, Homebound, Other Federal Entity Sites.
So we're really doing this? https://t.co/82RpkHm6mi pic.twitter.com/MBYZuImRmM

The truth was never the point, however. The goal was only to get a few obviously false quotes out into the internet ether. The same sentiment about the lack of a vaccine plan were dutifully picked up by NBC and the LA Times for example, even though it was fraudulent. "What we're inheriting is so much worse than we could have imagined," Jeffrey Zients, Biden's Covid-19 coordinator, said Thursday on a call with reporters, transcribed and repeated without evidence.
To be precise, the Trump Administration had wanted 20 million people to be vaccinated before the end of last year. They were three weeks late, fair enough to point that out. Still, it's a situation that Ms. Reston described as, "On Saturday, the US finally hit that elusive target that the Trump administration had set for the end of last year."
Finally? CNN then proceeds to describe a few challenges with a never before happened in the history of the world event, even forgetting that the vaccine was developed on a timeframe they said was impossible, as a "puzzling gap between expectations and reality."
The phrase might be better applied to Joe Biden: His big plan is to administer a million doses of the vaccine a day. NBC News reports this as "his ambitious goal." The only problem is that's what we're already doing, even before Biden officially got into office. How ambitious is it to do what's already been done?
Not to be outdone himself, however, Biden refused to even acknowledge that more could be done. Last week, a reporter asked him "Shouldn't you set the bar higher? Isn't that basically where the US is at right now?" Biden laughed in response. "When I announced it you all said it's not possible. Come on, give me a break, man."
Biden snaps at AP's Zeke Miller when he asks about the number of vaccine doses he wants to dole out in his first 100 days.

Yes, in the Biden world it's not possible to do what's already being done: Come on, give me a break man.
Fortunately, not everyone has become as supine as CNN, NBC, the LA Times, and others, at least not yet. "I love that he set a goal, but a million doses a day?" Dr. Paul A. Offit, director of the Vaccine Education Center at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and a member of a federal vaccine advisory board, told the New York Times. "I think we can do better. We are going to have to if we really want to get on top of this virus by, say, summer." The Hill quotes Professor Eric Topol at Scripps Research as calling the plan "totally inadequate." He explained that "100 million shots means 50 million people" because the two currently approved vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna require two separate shots.
Totally inadequate is perhaps best used to describe the media's response to Biden's complete turnabout on stopping the virus and obvious political games with the vaccine roll out. For an administration that regularly accused their predecessor of playing politics with people's lives, obscuring the truth, and denying the science, this is political hackery at its worst while life and death hangs in the balance.
Deaths attributed to the virus are at a daily average of 3,037 people, almost a hundred thousand people a month are dying. Projected deaths are now expected to easily top 400,000, or much higher. The case positivity rate remains over 9%, though thankfully that's down from highs of over 13% just a couple of weeks ago.
Of course, it's unfair to expect miracles, even if Biden himself promised them repeatedly. Instead, we can at least expect something resembling the same standards of reporting that we've had on the virus for most of the last year. "Come on, give me a break, man" wouldn't cut it for Trump and shouldn't cut it now.

I have a bunch of MP3 files on the PC. I have an older car (2006) with a CD player that doesn't APPEAR to understand "data" disc. I HAVE a CD I burned a year ago (I believe) with CDBurner XP with a bunch of mp3 files on it. It plays FINE in the car. The PROBLEM is - I CAN'T REMEMBER WHAT I DID TO GET IT ALL TO WORK! I'd like to make another one to listen to in the car. The total size of the 70 mp3 files is about 150 MB, so there's no problem fitting them onto the CD. I'm fairly sure I used CDBurner XP for making the other disc, since I don't recall using anything else, and I normally use it on those rare occasions when I need a CD. But when I tell CDBurner XP to create an "Audio Disc" it has some kind of seizure and keeps insisting the "data exceeds the size of the media"... So, I'm guessing I MUST have burned it as a data disc. Tried that again, and I get no sound from the disc in the car. Works on the computer, but doesn't APPEAR to work in the car. What am I missing here? How do I take some mp3 files on the computer and put them on a CD (data, audio, whatever) that'll play in the older car?

Q: Moving files between folders google apps script I´m trying to move a list of files in pdf from one folder tree to another. Both folders are sorted by folders named with student name. The scritp works almost fine. It takes the files from the student "A" folder, and paste it in the right folder named "A". but it takes the files from the next student folder "B", and paste it in the student "A" folder too. What's wrong? I've been lookin for the mistake for hours...
Thanks a lot for the help.
function moviendo() {

var folders = origen.getFolders();
while (folders.hasNext()){
var folder = folders.next();
var foldername = folder.getName();

//INTENTAR CREAR "DISCIPLINA"

try {

    Logger.log("TRY: "+foldes.getName());
    var fol = foldes.getFolders();
    while (fol.hasNext()) {
     var foldis = fol.next();
     var foldisname = foldis.getName();
     if(foldisname == "Disciplina"){
     var folderf = foldis.getId();
     }}

     var folderfin = DriveApp.getFolderById(folderf);
     }

    catch(f) {
    var folderf = foldes.createFolder("Disciplina").getId();
    var folderfin = DriveApp.getFolderById(folderf)
    }

Logger.log("Folderfin: "+folderfin);

//INTENTA CREAR EL CURSO ACTUAL DE ARCHIVO

try {

    var fol2 = folderfin.getFolders();
    while (fol2.hasNext()) {
     var foldis2 = fol2.next();
     var foldisname2 = foldis2.getName();
     if(foldisname2 == cursoac){
     var folderf2 = foldis2.getId();

}

A: The code can be simplified by using folder.getFoldersByName() method. Below, is an example of how to access/create a folder with a folder name "JACK" and assign to variable destFold
  var folder = DriveApp.getFolderById("ID")
  var folders = folder.getFoldersByName("Jack")
  var destFold
  if(folders.hasNext())
     destFold = folders.next()
    else {
     destFold = folder.createFolder("Jack")
    }

Applying this algorithm to your code results in the following (function getFolder(name,folder)):
function moviendo() {
var fecha = new Date();
var ano = fecha.getYear();
var mes = fecha.getMonth();

if (mes >= 0 && mes <= 8){var cursoac = ano-2+"-"+ ano-1}
if (mes >= 9 && mes <= 11){var cursoac = ano+"-"+ ano+1}

var cursoac = "2016-2017"

//var origen = DriveApp.getFolderById("0Bzgw8SlR34pUNDNlV2dOS0JmU2M");
var origen = DriveApp.getFolderById("1icoXnLKpVDkR9_i8eurP-CX4PMIMEASD") //1TeBhHwhwcGha_KK5xxlkE8J7mx07Nrb9");
var destino = DriveApp.getFolderById("1rnY1KhP14qXSMjFlvJZ0elbmy_a3TrqC")//"1aZGTr8kihc2LjTF6oOfUiOZAAdhy45DJ");

var folders = origen.getFolders();
while (folders.hasNext()){
var folder = folders.next();
var foldername = folder.getName();
  Logger.log("Origin: "+foldername)
  var foldes = getFolder(foldername,destino)
//INTENTAR CREAR "DISCIPLINA"
  var folderfin = getFolder("Disciplina",foldes)
  var folderfin2 = getFolder(cursoac, folderfin)
  var files = folder.getFiles();
   while (files.hasNext()){
     var file = files.next();
     folderfin2.addFile(file);
     folder.removeFile(file);
   }
}
}

function getFolder(name,folder){
  var folderfin = folder.getFoldersByName(name)
    if (folderfin.hasNext()){
       var folderfin = folderfin.next();
     } else {
       var folderfin = folder.createFolder(name)
     }
  Logger.log("Return Folder:"+folderfin)
  return folderfin
}

There seems to be no apparent issue with your code. I simplified it in an effort to debug it. Hope that helps.

Solar Impulse 2 has completed the first round-the-globe fuel-free flight by a solar powered airplane, after landing in Abu Dhabi on Tuesday. The journey took 16 months, and demonstrated the potential of renewable energy.
Swiss Solar Impulse founders and pilots, Bertrand Piccard and André Borschberg, took turns piloting the aircraft. Bertrand Piccard said in a statement: "This is more than an achievement in the history of aviation, Solar Impulse has made history in energy. I'm sure that within the next 10 years we'll see electric airplanes carrying 50 passengers on short- to medium-haul flights" .
The 25,000 mile journey was a bumpy one, with troublesome turbulence and unfavourable weather during the 23 days in the air. The plane was built using carbon fibre, and has over 17,000 solar cells on its wings that supply the plane with renewable energy from four motors.
Neither pilot was able to stand in the cockpit while flying, and the plane did not have a pressurised cockpit, so they could feel the changes in weather.
Besides continuing to promote renewable energy, they intend to launch an international council to advise governments and develop new applications for clean energy technology.
UN Secretary General, Ban Ki-moon, said: "Solar Impulse has flown more than 40,000 kilometres without fuel, but with an inexhaustible supply of energy and inspiration. This is a historic day for Captain Piccard and the Solar Impulse team, but it is also a historic day for humanity" .
Abu Dhabi's green energy firm Masdar is the official host partner of Solar Impulse 2.

China Chopstick Debacle Puts Dolce & Gabbana's Future at Stake
Nov 23 2018, 11:30 AM Nov 27 2018, 12:48 PM November 23 2018, 11:30 AM November 27 2018, 12:48 PM
(Bloomberg) -- Dolce & Gabbana's Chinese marketing scandal is fashion's biggest faux pas since former Christian Dior designer John Galliano's anti-Semitic rant in 2011, and it's potentially far more costly.
While Dior got out of that mess by swiftly dismissing Galliano, D&G's owners initially offered few explanations even as a boycott movement spread through luxury's biggest growth market. Even after an apology from the Milan-based brand Friday, damage control will be trickier as the firm is still owned and operated by the designers with their names on the door.
"Consumers don't just buy a product. They buy an idea, an image that has values embedded in it," luxury consultant Mario Ortelli said. With China's shoppers making up around two-thirds of the industry's growth, "everyone needs Chinese trust."
Almost all major Chinese e-commerce sites including Alibaba Group Holding Ltd.'s Tmall and JD.com Inc. have suspended the sale of D&G products in China since the brand posted an ad showing a Chinese model struggling to eat Italian food with chopsticks, which consumers deemed condescending. The boycott spread to foreign sites, with Richemont's Yoox Net-A-Porter removing the brand's items from its Chinese and Hong Kong portals.
The scandal intensified after degrading remarks about Chinese people were sent from co-owner Stefano Gabbana's Instagram account. On Friday, the founders said sorry in Mandarin in a video clip, apologizing to Chinese people worldwide.

"We will not forget this lesson and this will never happen again," Gabbana said in the video. "And we must try harder to understand and respect Chinese culture. Finally, we ask from the bottom of our hearts for your forgiveness."
The fallout also spread offline to bricks-and-mortar retailers on Friday, with Lane Crawford removing D&G items from its department stores in China and Hong Kong.
The marketing videos were taken down between Thursday evening and Friday morning. In their apology clip, the designers didn't repeat an earlier allegation that their Instagram accounts were hacked. They had earlier said that was the reason for the derogatory comments about Chinese people on Gabbana's account.
'Multinational, Multicultural'
Providing evidence the account was hacked could help regain Chinese trust, said Luca Solca, analyst at Exane BNP Paribas.
The crisis shows the need for a "multinational, multicultural, diverse leadership organization, able to perceive and integrate different sensitivities," Solca said. Dior, controlled by luxury conglomerate LVMH, wasted no time in showing Galliano the door after he hurled anti-Jewish insults at a couple in a Paris bar, and the designer later apologized.
The challenge for D&G is that it's not a multinational giant but a closely held Italian business run by its two founders -- Gabbana and Domenico Dolce. A tongue-in-cheek, cartoon-ish characterization of Italian identity -- with ad campaigns showing large families touching each other and yelling in public -- has been a staple of D&G's marketing.
That pitch helped expand the company's sales to 1.35 billion euros ($1.54 billion) last year, according to Business Insider. D&G is bigger and more profitable than rival Gianni Versace, which Michael Kors Holdings Ltd. is buying for $2.2 billion. But trying to export its ironic marketing tone to China may have been a step too far.
The two founders, who created the brand in 1985, have resisted the trend among family owners of luxury firms to sell to giants like LVMH and Kering SA, the owner of Gucci. As demand for acquisition opportunities among both fashion conglomerates and private equity funds has pushed luxury valuations skyward, Gabbana and Dolce have consistently said they'd never consider selling.
Newspaper Interview
"Once we're dead, we're dead," Gabbana said in an interview with Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera last spring. "I don't want a Japanese designer to start designing Dolce & Gabbana."
The brand was able to weather online criticism of that remark. But the latest storm is far more intense. Some Chinese consumers went so far as to post videos of themselves destroying their D&G wares following his remarks.
Ryan Meng, a Paris-based fashion buyer for Chinese boutiques, was one of many to joke online that D&G now stood for "dead and gone" following the incident. "It's extremely unfortunate for all the Chinese team helping to handle the operation while working for someone like that," he said.

Welcome back, everyone! Or, if you didn't read last season's Top Chef recaps, welcome. Season 14 premiered last night, and this year, we're in Charleston, South Carolina, one of the best food cities in the country.

The new people are: Annie Pettry (Louisville, Kentucky); BJ Smith (Portland, Oregon); Emily Hahn (Charleston, South Carolina); Gerald Sombright (Marco Island, Florida); Jamie Lynch (Charlotte, North Carolina); Jim Smith (Montgomery, Alabama); Sylvia Barban (Brooklyn, New York); and Sylva Senat (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania).
Also new this season? Graham Elliot as judge. Padma Lakshmi, Gail Simmons, and Tom Colicchio have all returned for this season.
We learn a few things immediately. BJ's tattoos (which he says cover 75% of his body) are a way of rebelling against corporations. He's also trained under some really impressive restaurateurs, including Charlie Palmer and Andrew Carmellini. Emily has an attitude problem that she herself lets us know about within moments of meeting her- she also tells Padma and Tom to "stop talking" pretty much right away. I can see where this is going. Jim is the official state chef of Alabama, which I didn't realize was a thing. Sylvia has a crush on Sam.
The first Quickfire challenge is for the new people only. The chefs are each given a full chicken and each has an hour to cook said chicken chicken as many ways as they'd like. The winner of the challenge, of course, gets immunity in the first elimination challenge. The loser has to go up against the losing veteran in a sudden death Quickfire challenge. Getting into it right away.
All of the chefs have gigantic plans, but most of them end up making just one dish, with a few making two. Sylvia actually has one of her dishes, a homemade pasta dish ready for the chefs before the clock runs out, and Tom and Padma like it. Jim decides he's going to be using strawberries to make a sauce (dressing), and I am immediately reminded of Phillip's strawberry sauce from last season, something I hoped I would never think about again. He's also using only chicken innards. Annie seems to be having a lot of trouble and I'm nervous for her because she seems sweet.
The veterans are incredibly annoying and they need to be reminded that they're here because they didn't win the competition last time they were on.
The judge's taste the dishes and for the most part they're pretty good. They love Emily's wings, and her buttermilk black pepper biscuits. They also enjoy Jim's innards, but less into the fact that he has an entire raw chicken sitting next to him. They're not into Gerald's poached chicken, however, and Jamie burned his vegetables, which can be fatal. Tom tastes Annie's panzanella salad, which he assures her is not, in fact a panzanella salad. Bummer.
The judge's favorite dishes are Sylvia's pasta dish, Emily's wings, and Jim's innards. The winner is Jim. The least favorite dishes are Annie's, for her panzanella salad "pile of croutons," Jamie's, and Gerald's. Gerald loses the Quickfire challenge.
Next up: vets. Also next up: Graham Elliot judging adults, instead of MasterChef Junior contestants.
The challenge is to make shrimp and grits. It's a simple dish, but there's a lot that can be done with it. Brooke starts making a scotch egg with ground shrimp on the outside instead of sausage. It's always risky making an egg on a show like this, because there's so, so much that can go wrong. It's even riskier, because she's using shrimp. When she cuts into the egg, however, she's done it perfectly.
Sam and Casey are keeping it pretty simple. Katsuji, like last time he was on the show, is doing the exact opposite and is using way too many ingredients. John made Kimchi and Kimchi butter to get some Korean flavors. Shirley made a "bowl of hug," which was an egg custard dish.
The favorites were Amanda's, for both her plan and execution, Brooke for her perfect egg and cool idea, and Shirley's "bowl of hug," for slapping you and then also giving you a hug, according to Tom. Brooke won the challenge.
The least favorite dishes were Casey's, for her undercooked grits, John's, for being one dimensional, and Katsuji's, for its lack of balance. John loses the challenge.
At the Top Chef house, the veterans are stealing beds, and John is plotting, though we don't know it yet. He has something up his sleeve (in his bag) for the next day.
The sudden death Quickfire challenge takes place on, yes, a plantation. It's called Boone Hall Plantation and is open to visitors for educational purposes and as a reminder of history. It's also home to one of the world's largest oyster festivals, and therefore, John and Gerald will be competing in an oyster roast.
This is where I become angry. John decides that he's going to make a heavy soup with oysters and truffles. If you're thinking, "but there are no truffles there for him to use," you'd be right. He whips a truffle out of his pocket and explains, "we're allowed to bring a few of our own ingredients." This is what I call bringing a gun to a knife fight, and it is very, very uncool.
Gerald makes a Thai-style oyster with mignonette. Unfortunately, he can't compete with John's very, very expensive soup, and he goes home. We'll see Gerald on last chance kitchen, though.
Come back next week for a recap of episode two!

Solidarity in the Middle of a Pandemic
I got to know Shamim when she worked as a cleaner at the girl's hostel at the university where I work in Lahore, Pakistan. Shamim is a widow with 10 chidren. When the government imposed a lockdown in March to stop the spread of the coronavirus Shamim and her community of Lutheran Christians found themselves stuck at home with no work. While Shamim was still being paid minimum wage by the janitorial services firm she worked for, her neighbors were not as fortunate. Most of them were working as casual laborers on daily wages or running their microenterprises, and lost their livelihoods with the city in lockdown. Shamim came to tell me her neighbors were asking her for food and she had been sharing what little she had but her stocks were running out, while she had 10 children of her own to feed.
In the meantime, the government announced a food relief package for all daily wagers in the country. But lack of an effective delivery mechanism was making it hard to reach many hard hit communities even weeks after the program had started. Shamim's small community of up to 50 households did not seem to be on the government's radar. I contacted the nonprofits I knew in the city that were working to eradicate hunger but was told they were overwhelmed by the number of requests they were receiving and couldn't take anymore. This is when I thought of contacting Saima1, a senior bureaucrat in the state government. Saima is a young and dynamic Catholic woman who I had once invited to speak about women in the bureaucracy to my students. I asked her if she could speak to her church to direct some of the international aid that they receive, to feed Shamim's community. Shamim's Lutheran church was too small and under-resourced to help its members.
Saima told me that ever since Pakistan had been put on the grey list for money laundering and terrorist financing by the global Financial Action Task Force international aid had dried up for the Christian community. But Saima offered to use her networks in the local government to see if they could help Shamim's community. Saima and Shamim spent the next three weeks making countless phone calls, with me acting as a liaison. A few times Shamim received a call from the city government giving her hope that relief was coming but it would come to nothing. I almost gave up but Shamim persisted as the hunger around her grew. Saima too seemed to have made it her personal mission to get Shamim's community the relief they so badly needed.
Three weeks later public officials finally arrived in Shamim's neighborhood with a truck loaded with dry food rations, and amid much excitement every household received their bag of a month's worth of wheat, flour, oil, sugar and lentils. Shamim and Saima's persistence had paid off!

Product Rating What is your opinion of this product? This is the fourth Cub we've bought in 6 years. After the first one lasted three years, 24/7 in the SoCal high desert heat/cold & high winds, we bought the second. Then our grandson liked ours so much, we bought him one. It's still going strong in the high Utah mountains. Now its time to replace our second one. They're made well with substantial materials. We own quality kites and accessories, and other yard art from Into The Wind, and we're quite pleased with their business model.


Stranded in a place between heaven and hell, your time of judgment is at hand. The underworld is on the verge of unholy war, and you are but a pawn in the infernal battle. As you fight for your purification, the truths behind the deceptions are revealed. This demo features the latest version of the PAIN Engine (1.4) and one battle from the third chapter of Painkiller. In the popular ""Military Base"" level, new effects such as heat and haze distortion, light blooms, per pixel specular mapping, new shader effects and tweaks for the latest video cards are now included as a preview of what the PAIN Engine will offer in the upcoming expansion pack Painkiller: Battle out of Hell.


First up is Beggar Boy. He has totally figured out when we have any kind of food and he wants some. He will crawl over to us and either try to climb in our laps or stand up by us and beg. It's mostly really cute until it's something he can't have and then he gets mad... hmm, guess I'm going to have to work on that.
It also doesn't matter if he's just finished eating or not, he wants what we have!
Next is the boy who likes baths.
When I turn on the water he wants to climb up and see what's making the noise.
Then we have Ghost Boy. He's figured out he can stand up in his crib and then he'll never go to sleep so we put this afghan over the top. It also helps if we go in the room for some reason (okay, all the time since our computers are in here) then we don't disturb him. Then when he wakes up he just stands up under the blanket and we have our own little ghost.
Watching Daddy play on his computer.
See, even Daddy likes to take naps with the Bunny!
He also makes opening and closing his mouth like a fish faces! It's really cute... until you're trying to feed him and he keeps opening and closing his mouth so you can't get the spoon in!
Come back tomorrow and I will (hopefully) have some pictures up from the photo shoot I did with my brother's girlfriend this afternoon. I was quite impressed with how some of them turned out! Please don't judge too harshly!
Great pictures ... he is a cutie!
That's what my floor looks like...constantly covered with random books. And, my kids are five and nine! It doesn't change. Sigh.
I like Beggar Boy the best. Why is it that they always want what we have? LOL!


This Swedish patisserie was founded in the 1920's by a woman called Helga. Since then it has been located at the same address. Some of the interior details are original, like the ceiling for example. If you are visiting during February-March you should try the Semla (a sweet bun with whipped cream and almond paste) or Tösse´s famous own version; the Semmelwrap.


This is a recipe from Ina Garten. You need this recipe in your life. The cake is super sticky, so be sure to use parchment in your pan, or better yet make it in a 9×13 pan and just frost the top of it instead of doing a layer cake. The hot coffee is a must. I don't drink coffee, so just have a stash of Folger's singles on hand. You could also go to a drive through fast food place and get a cheap cup of coffee.

A child has died in hospital despite the efforts of his family who pulled him from bottom of Jellybean Pool in Glenbrook and emergency services who performed CPR.
A seven-year-old boy has died after being found unconscious at the bottom of a swimming hole west of Sydney.
The boy had been missing for about 30 minutes by the time emergency services were alerted
Police performed CPR before paramedics arrived
The child was taken to the Nepean Hospital but died shortly after
The child's parents called emergency services to Jellybean Pool in the Blue Mountains National Park at Glenbrook at 2:25pm, saying he had been missing for almost 30 minutes.
Police said family members pulled the boy from the water at 2:45pm and officers from Blue Mountains Police Area Command, the Dog Unit and Rescue Squad performed CPR.
NSW ambulance paramedics then took over and a rescue helicopter winched a medical team to the scene.
The child was taken to the Nepean Hospital but police said he died shortly after arrival.
A report will be prepared for the coroner.
So far, eight individuals have been called up by police.
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has recently shared a clip on stargazing. It posted a video on its official Instagram handle and captioned it, "Stargazing… but make it intergalactic". The viral post has garnered more than 25,000 likes.
The call comes after patients were turned away from emergency departments at Sunshine and Footscray hospitals on Tuesday when more than 220 staff were forced into isolation.


Each of us has a potential to enjoy life with a calm disposition and steady energy. For centuries, methods of physical and spiritual practice have been successfully practiced. These arts were taught long ago in confidence to the initiated. Only recently have these methods been revealed by the Internet's looking glass to all who want to learn.
I'm a medical doctor and the truth is that what people do for themselves on a daily basis has far greater power to maintain health and prevent illness than any magic I can conjure. Exercise, good diet and stress management are the keys to a long and enjoyable life.
Exercise is a subtle art that at its best involves every part of the body in a healing and invigorating way. Yoga and Tai Chi are ancient arts that promote these goals. Exercising in an effective way keeps the spine and the body's structures mobile. Core Mobility allows each breath to promote circulation within the internal organs, circulation of blood through the body and circulation of spinal fluid to the brain. Breath-by-breath health is maintained.
The body needs to be fed enough but not too much. Experiments have shown that avoiding consuming more calories than we really need leads to longer life. It is important to drink enough water to run the engines of life. Eating should be mindful and filled with the knowledge that the food being consumed is a life giving miracle. The food we eat should be fresh and offer a nutritionally complete experience. Ancient healing traditions all suggest a reverential attitude towards the four that sustains us.
Stress is omnipresent and will overwhelm without an effort to maintain an internal sense of calm. We have little control over the world outside of ourselves and have ability only to move toward an inner sense of personal satisfaction and harmony. No one emerges from childhood feeling harmonious. It must be cultivated by slowly moving towards a peaceful place on the horizon. Taking some time each day to practice a simple breathing meditation is effective and has been practiced by our species for thousands of years.
The discovery that a single health metric is able to objectively follow health benefits of exercise, diet and stress management is a major medical scientific achievement. Aortic Stiffness, a measure of stiffness along the spinal axis is a proven predictor for risk of death from all causes. Aortic Stiffness is a way to assess Core Mobility and can now be assessed using a 30 second test, a fingertip pulse sensor and a mobile app.


SmartNet North America has had an agreement in principle since we launched with NRCAN to assure a high quality, standard set of coordinates were available to our customers. Late in 2014, we entered into a formal agreement with NRCAN as part of the NRCAN RTK Service Provider Compliance program.
As part of this program, we are required to adopt the NAD83(CSRS v6) Epoch 2010.00 broadcast coordinates that are calculated and provided by NRCAN to assure our customer base is operating on the appropriate National Spatial Reference System in Canada. While we have been operating with NRCAN provided coordinates since December 2012, a new realization and solution was computed in January 2015 which requires us to adopt the newer, improved solution.
Because this is simply an updated solution the overall effects on the network are very small, 90% of the station in the network experience an average "shift" of only 4 mm, the remaining stations (~ 20 stations) do however experience shifts that could material impact measurements in the field.
The following stations are the 20 stations that will experience a shift that will impact field measurements. Please refer to the "Site Information Search" tool to determine the amount of the shift (or click on the site code below), you can view the current and superseded coordinates, we encourage you to watch this short video to learn more about the tool - LINK.
What can I do to handle the coordinate changes caused by the adjustment?

Annual Plant Science Day to have hands-on experiments
Targeted toward children, include clorophyll extraction activities
"Too often, kids just get to hear about different science experiments," John Hadish, the organization's vice president, said. "We want them to be able to engage in hands-on science experiments."

WSU's Molecular Plant Sciences Graduate Student Organization is hosting the fifth annual Plant Science Day on Saturday.
John Hadish, the organization's vice president, said the free event will be from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. at the Vogel Plant Biosciences Building concourse. There will be signs posted around the building to point drivers toward free parking spaces.
Hadish said Plant Science Day is an outreach event for the Palouse community and is targeted toward children ages 5 to 13, but family members are welcome to attend.
He said the event will have booths featuring different hands-on experiments. Some booths will include chlorophyll extraction activities, as well as plant-based tie-dye sessions. There will also be ice cream made from plants and liquid nitrogen.
"The grad students have a choice — some of them choose to do stuff related to their actual research, whereas others choose to … [do] things they normally wouldn't get to play around with," Hadish said.
He said the organization began planning the event about five months ago. Around 25 graduate students and officers will manage booths at the event.
Hadish said this is his second year participating in the event. Last year, Hadish managed a booth that involved children who identified different types of conifers by the trees' cones.
"I really like the outdoors, and I really feel like it's important for kids to realize there's more types of trees than just pine trees," he said. "There's a lot of variety of trees on our world."
He said last year's event had around 150 attendees from the Pullman, Moscow and Lewiston areas. Hadish said he expects a similar amount of attendees this year.
Hadish said the organization promoted the event by posting it on social media and local schools' public forums.
He said the goal of the event is to encourage children to engage in science from an early age and build interest in the subject.
"Too often, kids just get to hear about different science experiments," Hadish said. "We want them to be able to engage in hands-on science experiments."
