Can some or all of an employee's tasks be performed away from the central workplace?
On what basis will the arrangement be? Formal? Ad hoc?
How will the employee be contacted while away from the workplace?
How will items that need approval be processed?
What technological capabilities and equipment are required?
What are the costs associated with telecommuting?
Are there workplace health and safety requirements to consider?
What are the requirements for WorkCover/insurance purposes?
Is the technology solution in line with your business goals?
Will the technology fit the needs of all of your staff?
How will you identify reputable digital service and technical providers?
Have you considered security issues and how you will address these?
In essence, the same requirements that apply to work, health and safety (WHS) in the traditional workplace will apply in a home or other telework workplace. For example, duties set to ensure the health and safety of workers and other persons apply to work carried out from home. People to be protected from risks to their health and safety may also include others who are in the home workplace, such as family members or visitors. You should learn about the WHS legislation in your state or territory. Contact your state or territory WHS regulator for more information. Alternatively, Master Electricians Australia members can contact our safety team on 1300 889 198 for more information.
How can I establish and monitor WHS requirements for telework?
When will telework be possible?
How will it be formalised?
What are the characteristics and skills of the employee?
What is the suitability of the proposed telework workplace to telework?
What are the requirements for ongoing attendance at the central workplace?
Apply WHS policies and procedures to telework in a way that recognises the different workplace and work arrangements of teleworkers. Do a risk assessment of the telework workplace and implement risk controls – the business must ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, that hazards and risks in the telework workplace have been identified and control measures are in place. The processes that the business has in place in the central workplace can be readily applied to telework at another location.
Maintain employee involvement in the workplace, workforce activities and WHS consultation.
Plan arrangements with the individuals who will be teleworking (e.g. from a home office). Manage telework with ongoing monitoring, to ensure that, as far as is practical, WHS risks are being managed. It is good practice to have a formal/written agreement between the employer and the employee before a telework arrangement commences.
You will need to have a clearly defined telework policy in place so that everyone involved is aware of their roles and responsibilities. This could incorporate things like, information about the physical items and IT support provided; performance expectations and monitoring; communication protocols; work health and safety issues etc. Your telework policy should include the steps your employees need to take to request and move into a telework arrangement. As a first step this would generally involve an employee instigating a discussion with their supervisor or another person identified in the telework policy, such as a human resources manager. If you already have an informal working from home policy with your employees, start by reviewing these arrangements and think about what works and what doesn't. From there you can consider developing policies and guidelines that form the basis of your agreements with teleworking employees. The following video explains five important tips in managing employees working remotely.
to trust in their teleworkers ability to self-manage.
Many businesses start with a trial or pilot program and build from there. A pilot program helps to identify and overcome some challenges, particularly where there is concern about issues such as the return on investment, productivity or managing employees. A pilot program could include 10 to 100 employees in a large organisation, or 2 to 3 in a smaller one. This would provide a small enough sample to monitor the outcomes. A trial period of three to six months would be enough time to allow managers and employees to adjust to the new ways of working and assess the benefits. More information on implementing telework into your business can be found at www.telework.gov.au.


Happy Friday! Today's shoe mood board was inspired by the colors of the new Primaforma sneakers we just got in. These court shoes are super sleek, very comfortable and fit great! We fell in love with the combination of dusty pink and charcoal gray together. Both hues are good for transitioning into the Fall season don't you think?
Primaforma sneakers for women found here. Additional images found here and here.


Don't read too deeply into the things I say. You might drown.
n don't ever try to read how much i feel for her. u might still drown.
I found myself spinning out of control in the whirlpool of your thoughts. I never knew how to save myself; and in all the frenzy, nothing made sense - you didn't make sense.
Not too many people make me think like you do.
I'd rather drown in an ocean of you, than die of dehydration without.
But you won't be the first to.
There you go, wandering off between the lines of a picture they say is worth a thousand words, even if they're Greek, while I wait patiently as ever in my home at square one.
You forget I know how to swim.
Have you forgotten that I will always love me more than I love you? I live for love though I'm too strong to take a risk that might weaken my love for you.
I can't go anymore. I have this instincts thats telling me that it wouldn't be a good idea. That's what happened before I tried every single time. It's just that something didn't feel right to me, but I went ahead did it anyway.
I'll always love you. I'll wait for a better circumtances.
I've drowned already--in my own tears!
You did to me what I feared the most. Now I am lonely, and alone and it's because I took your words to heart.
i honestly feel like this sometimes!
If only you said what you meant, then I would never have to pretend I know you. Because let's be honest, I don't know you. You are forever my sinking ship.
Maybe I'm waving AND drowning.
maybe I'm ready to be buried at sea.
I said what I meant. I meant what I said. It's really unfair for you to say things like that. I am not mind reader...I can't handle your personality. I am a fool.
If you can't handle me on my worst then you don't deserve me at my best. Duh!
I have drowned.. already..... how can i drown further ???

A clogged drain can be more than just an annoying circumstance. It can mean that you need to call a plumber for drain cleaning in Aledo, TX, quickly. At best, a clogged drain will drive you crazy. At worst, it can cause a major backup that ends with major water damage happening to your home. When you first notice your drain clogging, there are a few things you can do.
When you first notice that your drain is clogged, you have a couple of choices. You can always call a plumber in Aledo TX immediately. We'll happily come out and figure out what has made your drain run slow or stop completely. Some homeowners in Aledo do this because it's quick and easy and they don't have to think about the problem any more than is absolutely necessary.
Other homeowners like to try a DIY fix before they call us. That's great if you have plumbing experience or you take some basic precautions. If you don't, though, you can damage your home and end up spending even more money to fix it.
First, you can try a chemical solvent. These are sold in most grocery stores, home goods stores, or hardware stores. You'll want to follow the directions on the individual bottle that you buy, as each brand may tell you to do it slightly differently. Generally, you pour a certain amount of the solvent down your clogged drain. Then, you wait a specified period of time. Finally, you run water down the drain to clear the solvent and see if it has removed your clog. You want to make sure to run the water at the right time, or the solvent can damage or weaken your pipes.
If that doesn't work, you can rent a plumbing snake at your local hardware store. You want to be careful when you do this. Try to get one that is the proper diameter for the pipes that you'll be working with, and rent the best quality snake you can find. Also, be sure not to thread the snake more than 3 feet into your pipes before you pull it back. If your snake is the wrong size, or it's of a low quality, or you put it in too far, you can get it stuck in your pipes. We have had to remove many a plumbing snake that a homeowner has tried to use to clear a clogged drain.
If neither of these solutions clears up your clog, it's probably time to call for professional drain cleaning in Aledo, TX. At this point, your clog is either extensive or deep in your system. Both of these can require the deft fingers of a skilled plumber to remove. We come with professional grade plumbing snakes, so we can put them in deeper than 3 feet. We also have other tools we can use to remove your clogs.
Call us next time you have a clogged drain, and we'll show you why we are some of Aledo's favorite plumbers!

Mana of Mass Society Panel Discussion: with Prof. William Mazzarella
Panel Discussion | April 20 | 4-6 p.m. | Kroeber Hall, Rm. 221 (Gifford Room)
Featured Speaker: William Mazzarella, University of Chicago
Panelist/Discussants: Valerie Black, PhD student, UC Berkeley; Ned Dostaler, PhD student, UC Berkeley; Mohamad Jarada, PhD student, UC Berkeley; Robyn Taylor-Neu, PhD student, UC Berkeley
Sponsors: Department of Anthropology, Townsend Center for the Humanities, Institute for South Asia Studies, Graduate Assembly, The Program in Critical Theory
Professor William Mazzarella will join us in Berkeley for a panel discussion and Q&A engagement with his recently published book, "The Mana of Mass Society" (Chicago, 2017). The session will begin with an introduction by Professor Stefania Pandolfo, followed by a brief introduction of the new book by Prof. Mazzarella. A panel of graduate students from the Department of Anthropology (Valerie Black, Ned Dostaler, Mohamad Jarada, and Robyn Taylor-Neu) will then offer a set of prepared engagements with the book, to which Prof. Mazzarella will respond. Following this, the floor will be opened for a Q&A.
In "The Mana of Mass Society," Mazzarella engages questions around the entanglement of social populism and media(tion)—questions that have become increasingly insistent over the past year. Here and now, this is a terribly important book. As such, it provides an opportunity to bring both intellectual and socio-political concerns to the table. All are welcome, and we hope that many will join, as it promises to be a evocative and stimulating conversation around a new, generative, and thoughtful text.
William T.S. Mazzarella is the Neukom Family Professor of Anthropology at the University of Chicago. His research has attended to the politics of mass publicity and media in the South Asian context. Mazzarella's scholarship is, however, of broader interest. His work is uniquely situated at the interstices of anthropology, social thought, and critical theory, and invokes diverse intellectual traditions. His books include "Shoveling Smoke: Advertising and Globalization in Contemporary India" (Duke, 2003) and "Censorium: Cinema and the Open Edge of Mass Publicity" (Duke, 2013). In his most recent book, "The Mana of Mass Society" (Chicago, 2017), Mazzarella recoups a handful of "magical" thinkers from the dustbins of social theory and draws out their surprising salience to the contemporary political moment.
Sponsored by the Department of Anthropology + the Townsend Center for the Humanities + Grad Assembly + Institute for South Asian Studies; co-sponsored by the Designated Emphasis in Critical Theory.
Target audiences: Alumni, Faculty, Students - Graduate, Students - Undergraduate

We, as a family of four had a hiking on the Mount Parnitha with Kostas Grigoris and his colleagues last Saturday. We found them most helpful, extremely pleasant and very knowledgeable about the mountain and the surrounding areas.These are the guys who genuinely enjoy what they do and want to share their love of nature and outdoor activities with their visitors. We will use them again when we are next around and would like to recommend them highly.

Discrete tomography refers to a class of reconstruction methods adapted to discrete-valued images. A number of methods have specifically been developed to address the binary case, when a two-phase object is considered. This problem may arise in different medical applications such as vascular or bone imaging where the goal is to reduce the number of projections. In this paper, we address the problem of binary image reconstruction for X-ray CT imaging from a small number of projections. We propose two new schemes based on level-set regularization. In the first approach, the binary tomography problem is formulated as a nonlinear inverse problem and regularized with Bounded Variation-Sobolev terms. A second level-set type method is investigated which includes the binary constraints in an augmented Lagrangian. For comparison, we consider a classical TV regularization method. The three schemes are applied to a simple disk image and to bone cross-sections images of various size without and with an additive Gaussian noise. The best binary reconstruction results are obtained with the TV algorithm for the simple disk image. Lower reconstruction errors are achieved with the level-set approaches methods for a more complex bone geometry and for the higher noise levels.

The Most Anticipated World Premieres From The 2022 Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF)
By Matt Neglia
By Matt Neglia, Dan Bayer, Nicole Ackman & Nadia Dalimonte
The Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) officially begins tomorrow and runs until the 18th of September. There are a number of films playing at the festival which had their world premieres at either Cannes, Telluride, or Venice, but what about the TIFF-specific world premieres? Take a look at the top 20 world premieres NBP is looking forward to at this year's Toronto International Film Festival…
20. Pray For Our Sinners
With abortion currently the subject of much discussion in the United States, it's important to be aware of women's reproductive rights in other countries as well. Until 2018, abortion was illegal in Ireland, a country still very influenced by the Catholic Church. In "Pray for Our Sinners," journalist and documentarian Sinéad O'Shea looks at the country's history of brutality towards unwed mothers and their children. From corporal punishment used in schools to mother and baby homes where pregnant girls were sent, O'Shea unearths the tragedies that women and children in the country faced. But she also focuses on those who fought back against the stigma and practices in Ireland while taking the Catholic Church to task for their role in the problem.

19. The Greatest Beer Run Ever
Oscar-winner Peter Farrelly returns to the festival, which gave his previous film, the Best Picture-winning "Green Book," its official awards season started four years ago in 2018 when it won the Audience Award. Will he win the prize again this year for "The Greatest Beer Run Ever?" Some may have rolled their eyes when watching the trailer for this film, based on another true story of a Marine Corps veteran and merchant seaman who travels to Vietnam during the war to give his friends beer for moral support. But there are others who feel this could be an improvement on Farrelly's last movie. Time will tell.
– Matt Neglia
18. Butcher's Crossing
Nicolas Cage starring in a literary Western thriller ticks a ton of boxes. After stellar turns in the compelling 2021 drama "Pig," as well as this year's entertaining meta-comedy "The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent," the actor is back with a new role that sounds elastic in range. In "Butcher's Crossing," based on the novel by John Williams, Cage stars as a buffalo hunter who mentors a young man through a wild journey in 1870s Colorado. One of the most idiosyncratic actors alive, Cage has the ability to make a linear-sounding plot feel fresh and unpredictable. If you are hungry like I am for a new Cage film, particularly following two career-best performances, the world premiere of "Butcher's Crossing" is high up the anticipation ladder.
– Nadia Dalimonte
17. Aristotle And Dante Discover The Secrets Of The Universe
Benjamin Alire Sáenz's novel, about the growing friendship between two teenage Mexican-American boys in 1987 El Paso, is a beautiful tale about finding your person – the one who understands you on a level that no one else does. Its popularity among the YA set isn't based on anything, either, as the novel has consistently been ranked high on all sorts of lists of best YA fiction and won numerous awards. As we keep inching towards more ethnic equality onscreen, it's heartening to see a film based on something focused equally on issues of being Mexican-American as well as discovering your sexuality. With a cast that includes Eva Longoria, Eugenio Derbez, and Kevin Alejandro as the boys' parents, this looks to even have some quiet star power to bolster its potential as a future LGBTQ classic. Given its literary pedigree, we can't wait to see who picks up this "Heartstopper" meets "Call Me By Your Name" beauty and gives gay teens another chance to see themselves onscreen.
– Dan Bayer
16. What's Love Got To Do With It?
All I needed to know to add "What's Love Got To Do With It?" to my most-anticipated list was that Emma Thompson plays Lily James's mother. But Shekhar Kapur's new film about a young English documentary maker filming her Pakistani best friend's journey to an arranged marriage has a fascinating premise. It promises to be a very unique film centered around ideas about romance and marriage and whether the two must be intertwined. I love any sort of romantic dramedy that is out of the box, and this film has the potential to be something exceptional.
15. My Policeman
My eyes will be on Harry Styles playing his first lead film role in the 1950s gay romance "My Policeman." Based on Bethan Roberts' novel of the same name, the Britain-based story follows a policeman Tom (played by Styles), who falls in love with a museum curator while married to a school teacher. Each of the characters winds up at the center of a love triangle that would shape the rest of their lives. The drama also stars Emma Corrin and David Dawson as Tom's two lovers. Following an incredible turn as Princess Diana in Netflix's "The Crown," expectations are high with Corrin playing an intriguing spotlight role. From the sounds of this story, "My Policeman" has a prime opportunity to shine with a talented ensemble. As the recipient of the TIFF Tribute Award for Performance, the film is off to a promising start!
14. The Lost King
In 2012, a woman named Philippa Langley helped lead the search for British monarch Richard III's final resting place. His body had been lost to time, and his reputation had been maligned for centuries before he was found – of all places – underneath the car park. Stephen Frears's "The Lost King" depicts Langley's struggle to redeem Richard III against all odds. With the writing team from "Philomena" and Sally Hawkins in the leading role, the film promises to be both inspiring and heartwarming. As a historian, and in particular a historian with interest in the British monarchy, "The Lost King" is very intriguing to me.
13. The Swimmers
"The Swimmers" is a true story brought to the festival by Netflix about two sisters, Yusra and Sara Mardini, who fled their war-torn home in Syria to get a new shot at life and competing in Olympics. The trailer hinted at this being a moving and inspirational story (and also showed brief glimpses of Matthias Schweighöfer as the lady's swimming coach). The Netflix film is opening up this year's Toronto International Film Festival, and traditionally, the opening night film hasn't always been the most well-received. Still, we remain optimistic that Sally El Hosaini's film will not disappoint.
12. Raymond & Ray
How has it taken this long for Ethan Hawke and Ewan McGregor, two of the best actors of their generation, to star in a film together? Rodrigo Garcia doesn't have the strongest filmography, but casting those two titans as estranged half-brothers coming together to bury their father is the kind of decision that can make a good film just by itself. The fact that the official TIFF write-up says the film is "shot through with audacious gallows humor" has us anticipating this one even more, as walking that line between humor and heartbreak, dark comedy and character study, is one of the hardest – yet most satisfying – things to get right.
11. Weird: The Al Yankovic Story
Daniel Radcliffe has had quite the erratic career since becoming the icon of a generation as Harry Potter in one of Hollywood's biggest franchises. When it was announced that he was going to play musician "Weird" Al Yankovic in a biopic, we didn't know what to think or what to expect, especially after it was announced that it was going to be released by… Roku? The streaming device giant? And directed by Eric Appel, whose filmography contains a lot of television sitcom episodes and web videos. And yet, somehow, that all feels perfect for a film about a man who has made his career by letting his freak flag fly and taking chances no one else would take. Add to that the fact that it's co-written by the hilarious Yankovic himself, and it's no surprise that the film's trailer looks funny and just off-kilter enough to still surprise us. The opener of TIFF's storied Midnight Madness lineup is going to make for one hell of a party up in Toronto, and we can't wait.
Like many period dramas and classic literature fans, my love affair with "Wuthering Heights" started in my teens. As I've grown older, my perspective on the novel has shifted, as my admiration for its author and her daringness to publish such a daringly immoral novel at the time has grown. Thus, I could not be more excited to see "Emily," Frances O'Connor's take on Emily Brontë's life. The Brontë sisters, in addition to being literary geniuses, lived fascinating but tragic lives. The film's trailer and press materials suggest that the story of Emily's life will be told in a style that mirrors that of her work. With Emma Mackey (who shone not only in "Sex Education" but also in the ill-fated "Death on the Nile") portraying the now-celebrated author, "Emily" promises to be a very moving biopic.
9. The Menu
As they say, "eat the rich." Mark Mylod ("Game Of Thrones" and "Succession") makes his feature directorial debut with a premise that is sure to get people talking at this year's Toronto International Film Festival. Anya Taylor-Joy leads the ensemble alongside Nicholas Hoult, John Leguizamo, and Janet McTeer as a group of wealthy one-percenters are emotionally and physically tormented on an island by a diabolical head chef (played deliciously by Ralph Fiennes) and his minions. Sure to be filled with lots of twists and turns, this sinister takedown of the elite will no doubt excite and make us hungry for more.
8. Chevalier
Kelvin Harrison Jr. has become one of the hottest young actors to watch with engaging performances in "Luce" and "Waves." Here, he leads the Searchlight Pictures period drama "Chevalier" as a Black composer and violinist, Joseph Bologne, who had to fight racism to gain a higher position in Marie Antoinette's court. Director Stephen Williams has been creating captivating television episodes over the past few years with "Watchmen" and "Lost." Now he returns to narrative feature filmmaking with what will hopefully turn the historical biopic on its head with a unique perspective.
7. All Quiet On The Western Front
Erich Maria Remarque's brilliant 1929 novel "All Quiet on the Western Front" is one of the greatest war stories ever written – and perhaps most importantly, one of the greatest anti-war stories. While the previous film adaptations of the novel are astounding works of cinema, this marks the first time that the German book has been adapted into a German-language film, lending an air of authenticity to the storytelling. Edward Berger's film promises to highlight the brutality and madness of a war whose purpose was murky both then and now. While World War II films abound, movies set during World War I are rare, despite the cinematic nature of trench warfare. "All Quiet on the Western Front" is one of my favorite novels of all time, and as someone who prefers war movies that show the hopelessness and messiness of war, this is one of my most anticipated films.
6. The Woman King
A collaboration between the great Gina Prince-Bythwood and one of the greatest actors of all time, Viola Davis, is more than enough reason to anticipate the world premiere of "The Woman King." Davis stars as Nanisca, lead warrior of the Agojie, an all-women military regiment protecting the African Kingdom of Dahomey from armed forces in the 18th and 19th centuries. Based on true events, this historical epic looks to be an emotional battle and a compelling story of immense scale. Following a wonderful range of genres in films, from "Love & Basketball" (2000) to "The Old Guard" (2020), Prince-Bythewood exploring world history is an exciting undertaking. With a powerhouse performer in Davis at the core, plus an ensemble that includes John Boyega, Thuso Mbedu, and Lashana Lynch, this story is one to watch.
5. Wendell & Wild
Todd Field isn't the only filmmaker returning to features after a decade-long hiatus. A spooky stop-motion animation directed by Henry Selick and co-written by Jordan Peele feels perfect for a fall film festival experience. "Wendell & Wild" playing at the festival marks an exciting world premiere for Selick; this is the filmmaker's first feature in thirteen years. Leaving off on a high note with the beguiling "Coraline" (2009), one of the greatest animated films of the past decade, is plenty of reason for me to anticipate what comes next. Not to mention a story about two demon brothers, voiced by Peele and longtime collaborator Keegan-Michael Key, who stand up to their demon dad, voiced by Ving Rhames. With a tremendous cast of actors also, including Angela Bassett and James Hong, "Wendell & Wild" sounds to be an animated treat.
Maybe we don't need yet another take on Bizet's immortal opera (what could possibly top "Carmen: A Hip-Hopera" with Beyoncé?), but when it's a modern-day retelling starring the mega-talented Melissa Barrera and Paul Mescal? With all-new music by Nicholas Britell? Directed by choreographer (and Mr. Natalie Portman) Benjamin Millepied? That, maybe we do need. Setting this version in the Sonoran Desert at the Mexico-United States border offers plenty of opportunities for stunning cinematography, as well as socio-political commentary, but if we're being honest, it's the prospect of an original musical by one of the best film composers working today, starring two of our hottest up-and-comers that really has us chomping at the bit to see this.
3. Bros
Thankfully, this already has distribution, but will this Billy Eichner vehicle be a "Bridesmaids"-style win for representation onscreen from a major studio, or will it be a whole lot of fuss over nothing? Can this film live up to the expectations placed upon it as the first adult-oriented gay rom-com from a major studio? Indeed, can any film live up to such expectations? The trailer has plenty of good jokes, and the twist of casting all LGBTQ performers, even in the heterosexual roles, is exciting to see. We trust in Eichner to have a unique, funny, fabulously gay spin on things that will liven up the traditional Hollywood romantic comedy, and hope that the filmmaking doesn't let him down, but more than that, we hope it's good enough to overcome the hate that's sure to be directed at it after Searchlight's more diversely cast "Fire Island" got dumped on Hulu earlier this summer.
2. Glass Onion: A Knives Out Story
Benoit Blanc is about to crack another case, and boy, do I have my magnifying glass ready! The much-awaited sequel to Rian Johnson's who-'doughnut' "Knives Out" (2019) promises the return of detective Blanc (played with gusto by Daniel Craig), as well as new characters who find themselves in need of his help. In "Glass Onion: A Knives Out Story," Johnson swaps cozy cable knit sweaters for a Greece vacation at a billionaire's getaway. With an exciting change in setting, a star-studded cast (Kathryn Hahn! Edward Norton! Janelle Monáe!), and a story focused on the tech world; this sequel is poised to entertain and surprise. Given the intriguing title, here's hoping for a Benoit Blanc monologue about onion layers to rival his "doughnut within a doughnut."
1. The Fabelmans
The all-mighty Steven Spielberg makes his debut at the Toronto International Film Festival with his most personal film to date about his childhood upbringing in a Jewish household, experiencing divorce, and discovering his passion for filmmaking. Michelle Williams and Paul Dano play the Academy Award winner's parents, while Seth Rogen plays his uncle in what will most likely be a strong contender for the TIFF Audience Award this year. Usual collaborators like cinematographer Janusz Kamiński and composer John Williams (with what is said to be the legend's final film score), and editor Michael Kahn are all returning to bring Spielberg's vision to life. One of the most anticipated movies of 2022 and easily the most significant film of the festival, this one will be very special for all those involved both in front, behind the camera, and for the audience as well.

John Mueller of Google answered a question in the Google Hangout on Google+ saying a site that is getting more and more traffic, doesn't necessarily need to get more and more links to match that traffic increase. Basically the question was does Google expect a site that sees more traffic to also see more links and if not, the rankings might decline?
Would you say that the more traffic the site receives from google, the more links and recommendations should that site generate in order to stay ranking and move to a higher level?
Sometimes that happens naturally, sometimes that doesn't happen so naturally. I think that isn't necessarily related directly so it's not the case that we say. oh we send you this much traffic therefore we expect you to get more links over time because of that. That's usually not not the way that it works.

The best upcoming PS5 games: Final Fantasy XVI, God of War: Ragnarok, and more
Credit: Sarah Chaney / Android Authority
The long-awaited next-generation PlayStation is here. The PS5 launched with some great titles like the Demons Souls remake and Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales, but many of the best games are yet to come. We've selected some of the most intriguing PS5 exclusives and non-exclusive titles headed to the platform in the near future. Here are the best upcoming PS5 games you can expect in 2021 and beyond.
Don't miss: Sony PlayStation 5 review: A beautiful, speedy upgrade from last-gen
New PS5 games:
Final Fantasy XVI
Horizon: Forbidden West
God of War 2: Ragnarok
Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart
1. Final Fantasy XVI
Release date: TBD
Final Fantasy seems to be returning to its more traditional roots for the sixteenth mainline game of the series. The new installment is set in the medieval-esque realm of Valisthea — a world littered with towering Mothercrystals that grant power and prosperity to the kingdoms surrounding them. However, the fragile peace between the different factions is threatened when a blight begins to engulf the land. Clive Rosfield finds himself amidst this chaos, as he seeks to protect his little brother Joshua. We see him both as a young knight and as an adult bent on revenge, although we are not told what put him on the latter path.
Finally got a new PS5? Here are 7 things you should do first
Unfortunately, the timed-exclusive Final Fantasy XVI doesn't have an exact release date yet, so we may have to wait a while to find out. Nevertheless, the game promises to fix many issues from previous installments and includes a real-time combat system that looks promising. Combine that with its compelling story, and we have one of the best upcoming PS5 games.
2. Stray
Release date: October 2021
Who needs Cyberpunk 2077 when you have Cyberpunk with a cat? Set in a post-apocalyptic future in which humans seem to have disappeared, Stray lets you see the world through the eyes of a lonely feline. You wander around a city that seems to be inhabited solely by robots. We don't know in search of what yet, but that makes the mysterious game and its fluffy protagonist even more intriguing. However, you can expect the titular stray to behave much like a real cat. The developers from BlueTwelve Studio are cat owners themselves and have said their pets' playfulness and "lovingly annoying" behavior has inspired them.
Stray is coming out in October 2021, as a timed PS5 exclusive. It's without a doubt one of the best new PS5 games you should be on the lookout for next fall.
When it came out in 2017, Horizon Zero Dawn quickly became one of the most critically acclaimed PlayStation 4 games. Now, its sequel Forbidden West looks to be following in its footsteps, promising another engrossing open-world adventure. This time, Aloy will explore "The Forbidden West" – the overgrown ruins of what was once San Francisco. All is not well in this seemingly gorgeous and vibrant area, however. Massive, fearsome machines roam the land, and an unexplained environmental cataclysm threatens to cause another mass extinction. It's Aloy's job to discover the cause and restore balance.
PS5 vs Xbox Series X: Which next-gen games console should you buy?
Horizon Forbidden West promises to be even better than its predecessor, making it one of the new PS5 games we're the most excited to see in action. Unfortunately, there is no concrete release date yet, but we hope to see it land on the console in 2021.
4. God of War: Ragnarok
Although it is one of the games we know least about, God of War: Ragnarok is also one of the most highly anticipated. The 2018 God of War reboot breathed new life into the franchise, sending Kratos and his son on a journey through mystical Norse realms. The game was universally praised for its masterful art direction, graphics, music, and more. However, the true standout was the touching relationship between father and son. In short, the sequel — rumored to be called God of War: Ragnarok — has a lot to live up to.
PlayStation 5 vs PlayStation 5 Digital Edition: Find out which console is better for you
Unfortunately, the short teaser doesn't tell us much. Yet, the title itself is quite the big hint. In Norse mythology, Ragnarok is an apocalyptic event that leads to the deaths of many Norse gods. This is heavily teased in the first game alongside the arrival of a certain God of Thunder. It's expected that Kratos and his "boy" will take on the hammer-wielding diety and other figures of legend in the next God of War installment. It promises to be one of the hottest new PS5 games, and we might get it sooner rather than later. If the teaser is to be believed, God of War: Ragnarok is coming out this year.
5. Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart
Colorful, lively, and as entertaining as ever — this is what Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart promises to be. The latest entry in Insomniac Games' series sees dimensions merging and collapsing on one another, sending Ratchet and Clank down these rifts at dizzying speed. However, the dynamic duo quickly gets separated. They have to make new allies along the way if they want to take on the evil emperor.

Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart looks not only to be a blazing interdimensional adventure, but also a technical showcase for the PS5's new hardware. The console's SSD should make transitions seamless, while the DualSense's adaptive triggers and haptic feedback will make the experience even more immersive. The game doesn't have a set release date yet, but it's one to look out for if you want a game that'll take full advantage of the next-gen console's power.
6. Deathloop
A Groundhog Day-esque shooter is probably the best way to describe this upcoming PS5 game. Deathloop, as its name implies, has protagonist Colt stuck in a day that endlessly resets. He has to assassinate eight targets on the island before time runs out, but his job is not going to be easy. Colt has to contend with Julianna — a rival assassin whose only mission is to thwart him and to keep the cycle going. To make things more interesting, Deathloop offers many paths you can take. No two days are the same. Better yet, the game offers multiplayer gameplay akin to Dark Souls' invader phantoms. You can join other player's campaigns as Julianna and keep them stuck in the Deathloop forever.
If you are intrigued, you'll be happy to know that you won't have to wait too long. Deathloop launches this May and is shaping up to be one of the best new PS5 games you can buy this spring.
Gran Turismo is a staple of every PlayStation console, and the PS5 is no exception. The next-gen console brings with it Gran Turismo 7. This installment of the racing sim looks to be pushing realism to the next level with support for 4K visuals. However, it's also a return to simpler times. The game is reintroducing the fan-favorite GT Simulation Mode and has changed its interface to resemble older installments. If it is as good as the trailer promises, Gran Turismo 7 could return the franchise to its old glory, allowing it to finally challenge Forza for the racing sim crown.
At the moment, there is no exact release date for the game. It will likely drop sometime this year.
The best upcoming PS5 games: Honorable mentions
There are plenty of other new PS5 games coming in the future that piqued our interest. We couldn't fit all of them in the main list, so we've included some of them in our honorable mentions!
Mass Effect 5 — After the less than stellar Andromeda, the Mass Effect series seems to be returning to its old roots. We still don't know if Mass Effect 5 will be a direct sequel to any previous installment, but we know that Liara is back.
Dragon Age 4 — Bioware's fantasy franchise will soon be back with its fourth installment in the series. Set in a land ruled by mages, Dragon Age 4 promises that a new hero will emerge — not one foretold by prophecy, but one that will rise to the challenge regardless.
Ghostwire: Tokyo — Tokyo seems to be overrun with paranormal creatures only you can see. As such, it is your task to save the city and fight back with your own supernatural abilities.
Returnal — A mind-bending sci-fi epic, Returnal is another title in which time seems to endlessly reset. A lone astronaut has to uncover the secrets of the strange planet she crashed on and stop the cycle before it drives her mad.
Season — A quiet, atmospheric indie, Season follows a young woman on a journey of exploration as she discovers the world around her seemingly for the first time.
Open Roads — Every family has its secrets, and this mother and daughter duo are determined to uncover theirs. They embark on a road trip, with a relative's diary as their only clue.
Kena: Bridge of Spirits — Although very little is known about it yet, Kena: Bridge of Spirits looks to be one of the most magical upcoming PS5 games. The spirit-inhabited world is gorgeous, and the art style seems like a perfect Ghibli and Pixar blend.
These are our picks for the new and upcoming PS5 games to keep an eye out for. We'll update this list as games are released and new titles are announced.

Today in History 10/12 (Christopher Columbus)
October 12, 2018 by GµårÐïåñ
(1492) Columbus, having sailed the ocean blue, arrives in North America
Rodrigo de Triana shouts from his lookout atop his ship the 'Pinta' that he's spotted land after five weeks of an open-ocean crossing. The Italian leader of this Spanish-funded voyage, Christopher Columbus, will name the area of their first North American landfall 'San Salvador.'
Christopher Columbus was an Italian explorer, navigator, and colonist who completed four voyages across the Atlantic Ocean under the auspices of the Catholic Monarchs of Spain. He led the first European expeditions to the Caribbean, Central America, and South America, initiating the permanent European colonization of the Americas.
Lived: Oct 31, 1451 – May 20, 1506 (age 54)
Spouse: Filipa Moniz Perestrelo (m. 1479)
Partner: Beatriz Enríquez de Arana (1487 – 1506)
Children: Ferdinand Columbus (Son) · Diego Columbus (Son)
Buried: Seville Cathedral
1479: Christopher Columbus married Filipa Moniz Perestrelo in 1479.
1492: During his first voyage in 1492, the brisk trade winds from the east, commonly called "easterlies", propelled Columbus's fleet for five weeks, from the Canary Islands to The Bahamas.
1493: On 13 January 1493, Columbus made his last stop of this voyage in the New World, in the Bay of Rincón at the eastern end of the Samaná Peninsula in northeast Hispaniola.
1500: Columbus's strained relationship with the Spanish crown and its appointed colonial administrators in America led to his arrest and removal from Hispaniola in 1500, and later to protracted litigation over the benefits that he and his heirs claimed were owed to them by the crown.
1502: Accompanied by his brother Bartolomeo and his 13-year-old son Fernando, he left Cádiz on 11 May 1502, with his flagship Santa María and the vessels Gallega, Vizcaína, and Santiago de Palos.
1506: On 20 May 1506, aged probably 54, Columbus died in Valladolid, Spain.

All posts tagged: what are Thematic funds
Why You Should Try Thematic Investments?
Suppose you believe in an idea and confident that it will perform well in future. For instance, let's say you are optimistic towards the renewable source of energy. Here, you are assured that the grid and other conventional sources of energy will be replaced by the renewable source of energy like solar or wind energy in the future. And therefore, you want to invest in this idea.
However, you are not certain of the best leading company in this segment to invest. Moreover, you also do not want to invest in the entire energy sector through any sectoral mutual fund as you want to focus just on the renewable energy-related companies. How to proceed further with your investments? Enter the thematic investments.
What is Thematic Investment?
As you might already know, mutual funds also provide an option to invest in different sectors via sectoral funds. For example, pharmaceutical funds focus on pharma companies or banking funds focus on investing in companies in the banking Industry. However, thematic funds are different from the sectoral fund.
Thematic funds are growth-oriented equity funds that focus on investing in a set of companies based (or closely-related) to a particular theme. They follow a top-down approach and targets a broader macro-economic theme on which the fund manager has a good knowledge of. Here, the thematic fund investors studies and understand the impact of structural shift in economics, political, technological, corporate or social trends on sectors, demographics etc which may reveal investable opportunities.
For example, electric vehicles (EVs) can be considered a theme. Here, the thematic fund based on EVs do not just need to focus on one automobile industry, rather they can include a set of industries which are a part of the theme. For example- this theme may include companies from the automobile industry, battery industry, Metal companies involved in making battery parts like Graphite, Aluminium, Carbon, etc, auto-ancillaries industry or any other companies related to the EVs.
A few other popular themes in India right now are digital India, make in India, technological progress, Internet of things, blockchain, environmental sustainability, social security etc.
Mutual funds vs thematic funds:
As I already mentioned above, thematic funds are different from the mutual funds and here are a few major differences between them:
— Mutual funds are over diversified while thematic funds are compact. Mutual funds invest in somewhere between 40–100 stocks. On the other hand, the number of stocks in thematic funds are smaller, typically between 5–20.
— Mutual funds are rigid and not easily customizable. Although there are thousands of mutual funds available in the Indian market, however, they are not customizable. On the other hand, it's easier for investors to choose their ideas/sentiments and factor their risk appetite through thematic funds.
— The costs involved with mutual funds are high. For managing a popular active fund, the fund house may charge an expense ratio as high as 2.5-3%. However, the fees involved with thematic funds are comparatively cheaper.
Advantages of Thematic Funds
Here are a few common advantages of thematic funds:
— Thematic funds are potentially more rewarding compared to diversified mutual funds.
— As thematic funds offer a compact theme, they have a concentrated impact because of news or happenings in other non-related industries.
— There are a lot of publicly available popular themes in the Indian market and hence, finding the right investment opportunity is not a tough task for investors. For example, you can use FYER's thematic investment platform to try new different themes.
— Thematic funds allow strategic exposure to the investor's portfolio and encourage common sense investing as themes represent the investor's ideas and thoughts.
The risk associated with thematic funds:
There's no denying the fact that no investment strategy is perfect. And the same goes to the thematic investments. By making investments in thematic funds, you are preferring a concentrated theme. This portfolio concentration makes these thematic funds comparatively riskier over diversified mutual funds.
Moreover, there's also a controversy regarding thematic investments which says that investing in a concentrated idea which is still untested and underappreciated, may not be a sound approach.

The 3 Words that may be holding you back from investing in stocks.
Socially Responsible Investing: Why it matters?
A major difference between thematic investments and traditional ones is that the thematic investors look into the future and makes decisions based on the predictions on the future trends or upcoming shift in the structure. On the other hand, traditional investors check the history and weights more importance to past performance, market behavior etc.
Moreover, we cannot deny the fact that themes change fast with time. In the last two decades, we have witnessed massive changes in the industrial and technology theme. Therefore, if you are planning to make thematic investments, be observant and careful regarding the entry and exit decisions. Only enter these funds after you have researched the idea thoroughly.
Nonetheless, if you are able to invest in right thematic funds, they are capable of giving huge returns to the investors compared to other index or diversified funds.

Gabriel Garzón-Montano is a singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist with a progressive, often breezy, and slightly psychedelic sound firmly rooted in soul and funk. The Brooklyn native picked up music through his mother, a musician who was part of the Philip Glass Ensemble during the 1990s. The first instrument he learned to play was the violin, followed by guitar and drums. As a young teenager, he started writing songs. Years later, while attending State University of New York at Purchase, he was in a funk band called Mokaad. The same year that the band independently released an EP entitled Booty, Garzón-Montano recorded a set of solo material with longtime friend and collaborator Henry Hirsch. Deeply unsatisfied with the results, he kept the songs to himself for several months but eventually uploaded them to his SoundCloud page. The Styles Upon Styles label, taken by what they heard, bundled the songs for official multi-format release as Bishouné: Alma del Huila in February 2014.

America the multinational society by ishmael reed
Reed in his "Foreword" calls it "a gathering of voices from the different American tribes. Instead we are being influenced each and every day by every new comer that steps over that border. By asking these challenging questions he gives evidence to his readers that European people do not have only one culture.
The city has different sections, one of them consists of Islamic mosques and other section is full of a large number Hispanic people. Will Herberg in Protestant, Catholic, Jew wrote that the idea of the melting pot was misleading and that the nation was actually a transmutation pot wherein immigrants adapted to the dominant culture.
His family moved when he was a child to the industrial city of Buffalo, New Yorkduring the Great Migration. To an American with a monocultural viewpoint of this country, such a scene would be purely ironic. Download this Term Paper in word format.
They are not expected to ask for governmental assistance, since the attitude of the dominant groups is that new immigrants should be thankful for being allowed into the country in the first place. In the past, immigrants were taught in English in the public schools.
Racism is still very much with us today; it haunts our every discussion of the nation's past, present, and future. Ishmael Reeds arguments seem more valid than any other argument I have ever read about the fact that the United States in Westernizing the rest of the world.
Obviously, white ethnic groups that arrived earliest in time greatly benefit from this system of economic exploitation and help ensure conservative political views. The Puritans were a daring lot, but they had a mean streak.
While immigration has been an important factor, it is of secondary importance to the racial division. Attending his reading, he said, were large numbers of Hispanic people, forty thousand of whom lived in the same city. He has a modern third perspective view of what is happening in our time.
Both writers, though being from different times, have different experiences with Multicultural societies. In the 20th century after new immigration laws were established in USA millions of immigrant came to US virgin lands, creating here new families and societies.
This article describes experiences of the writer and those who have reported to him the vast changes and tolerance in multicultural acceptance. Indeed, all white immigrant groups were placed above blacks in American society.
Every since the United States was founded new people from new countries have been coming to the Americas and influencing every day life and habits. These people would have to deal with prejudices and xenophobia as we still do down to our day. Reed, on the other hand, does have the ability to travel the world, hear of experiences by way of the media or internet.
To become a place where the cultures of the world crisscross. The multiculturalist respect for the other's specificity may be the appropriate form of asserting one's own superiority. Another example is when his poet friend described a city he just visited and let him guess what city it was.
So, first Reed takes a historical perspective. This tells us that not only are we influencing other countries but other countries are influencing us more than we know.
Today, even the simple concept of an English-speaking nation is fading off the continent. Because the Puritans were a group of white-American settlers, white Americans who shun the idea of a diversified nation can relate to them directly. Are their moral values as valid as all others?
In his next paragraph, Reed talks about Puritans. In the worst case such conflicts can cause the breakdown of these societies. Even though, they symbolize a great society who created work ethic, they were very rude, destroying others cultures, hating art, punishing people illegally in cruel ways and even killing their children for disobeying their parents.
This only seems fair to not blaim the United States for "Westernizing" culture in other countries, but aplaud the United States for being able to bring all of these different cultures together.
He claims that anyone can meet such mixing cultures in big cities of US: The idea of the melting pot has been challenged by various theorists of cultural pluralism.

Ishmael Reed discusses and expands on the concept of the American "melting pot" in his essay "America: The Multinational Society."
