Adobe Illustrator is superior for creating vector-based graphics from images. Use this activity to introduce your students to the interface, terminology, and basic panels in Illustrator, work with swatches to manage colors in an Illustrator document, understand and work with layers, and save and export files.
Files updated on January 29, 2018 to Adobe Illustrator CC 2018 (version 22.0 - October 2017) release.
wonderful resources! Thanks for sharing!
Very helpful resource, many thanks!
Very helpful! I'm a total rookie, so this definitely helped.
All Adobe guides are excellent and useful for my students.
Thank you, Adobe. I am doing Certiport ACA exams in my classroom this year, and this series is perfect.
I see a lot of reference to ILLUSTRATOR GUIDE. where can I find this?
Hi Troy - All of the documents referenced in the lesson plan are included in the Resources section above. Is there a specific guide that you can't seem to find?
I am having an issue finding the image assests. I downloaded the bundle and I don't see any link to retrieve the images used in the guides.
We recently updated our files to the Adobe Illustrator CC 2018 (version 22.0 - October 2017) release with links to image assets used in the step-by-step technical guides.
Hi I'm teaching in Dutch may I use this sheets to translate them into a Dutch version?
Yes you can - just credit that they are translated and you're all set!
This would be great if you could download the assets, but you get a message saying the link is no longer active. If this is true, you need to remove this set of lessons.
Which document is the link saying that from Doreen? Can you email the information to the edex@adobe.com email.
This saved me a mountain of work when designing an Illustrator course. However, if your students are actually going to do some stuff, as opposed to just watching, I think this is almost a day's worth.
Thanks for the feedback Stephen. What do other people think - is this more like a day's worth of instruction?

Reality check: Most changes to WA's assisted dying bill now not Goiran's
While the rest of us have been busy getting on with life, Parliament and the state government have been locked in a do-or-die tussle over the fate of WA's draft euthanasia laws.
'I NEVER THOUGHT IT WOULD HAPPEN TO ME':
As WA debates the VAD Bill, one has to reflect on the findings from The WA Final Report of the Select Committee into Elder Abuse. How can the WA McGowan Government deem this good legislation?
• There are up to 75,000 older people at risk of elder abuse in WA;
• The majority of perpetrators are likely to be close family members, including children, grandchildren or spouses of the victim;
• Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people face a greater risk of experiencing elder abuse, and it may occur at a younger age than other older people in the community;
• Experiencing social isolation and loneliness is one of the most significant risk factors for elder abuse and a source of vulnerability in older people.
Did you also know:
• The Voluntary Assisted Dying Bill 2019 allows a person to take home the lethal substance and keep it in their home until they are ready to use it?
• The Hon Stephen Dawson outlined the government's position in relation to this issue:
"It is not our intention to police storage within the patient's home".
"The department is of the view that advising or educating people on safe storage and medication management is more appropriate and effective than a fixed legislative requirement for a specific method."

"Faith-based schools and groups have warned their charitable status could be stripped under a "public benefit" test over traditional marriage and gender beliefs."
It comes as pressure builds for Attorney-General Christian Porter to expand his religious freedoms package.
Ahead of an address to the National Press Club on Wednesday, Mr Porter will stare down pressure from leading Christian and Jewish groups who are calling for a wider overhaul of the Charities Act to protect against legal challenges.
Mr Porter will outline the complexity in drafting the religious bills amid competing interests of faith-based, business and social groups in his speech and is expected to provide detail on his finalised package ahead of tabling the bills in parliament before December 5.
The updated religious discrimination bill will include protections for faith-based hospitals and aged care facilities.
Clause 4 of Mr Porter's draft Human Rights Legislation Amendment (Freedom of Religion) Bill ensures supporting a traditional view of marriage will not be a "disqualifying purpose" that would preclude an organisation from remaining a charity under the Act.
While Mr Porter, who has declared he will not make wholesale changes to his religious freedoms package, has committed to amending the Charities Act, he is unlikely to expand changes to the public benefit test.
The Australian can reveal Scott Morrison, a devout Christian who abstained from voting on the same-sex marriage bill, attempted to move marriage amendments in 2017 supporting greater protection for charities to ensure they were not disqualified over marriage and religious beliefs.
An explanatory memorandum examining concerns over the public benefit requirement flagged potential issues for religious charities following the legalisation of same-sex marriage.
Mr Porter's resistance to expanding changes to the Charities Act comes despite a New Zealand case which saw Christian lobby group Family First stripped of its charitable status over its traditional view of marriage.
The Australian Catholic Bishops Conference also called for the Charities Act to be amended to ensure advocacy for marriage does "not contravene the public benefits test". ... See MoreSee Less

Q: Combining filter and exlude in Django query on related objects gives empty results I want to do the following query in Django to find car objects whose manufacturer doesn't exist in manufacturers table and have a specific country code:
ids = Countries.objects.all().values_list('id', flat=True)
Cars.objects.filter(group__manufacturer__country=123).exclude(group__manufacturer__id__in=ids)

Unfortunately this gives me an empty query result. But executing the filter and exclude query alone gives non empty results where some of the objects are the same (i.e. fullfill both conditions). Therefore I'm wondering how to combine the queries to get the correct subset. I also tried using Djangos Q objects but unfortunately with the same results. If possible I would want to avoid using raw sql.
Edit:
SQL query looks like
SELECT * FROM "car"
   INNER JOIN "group" ON ("cars"."group_id" = "group"."id")
   INNER JOIN "manufacturertogroup" ON ("group"."id" = "manufacturertogroup"."group_id")
   WHERE (NOT ("cars"."group_id"
       IN (SELECT V2."group_id" FROM "manufacturertogroup" V2
       WHERE (V2."country" IN (SELECT U0."id" FROM "countries" U0)
       AND V2."group_id" IS NOT NULL))
       AND "cars"."group_id" IS NOT NULL)
       AND "manufacturertogroup"."country" = 123)

Sum of squares (SOS) polynomials have provided acomputationally tractable way to deal with inequality constraintsappearing in many control problems. It can also act as an approx-imator in the framework of adaptive dynamic programming. Inthis paper, an approximate solution to theH∞optimal control ofpolynomial nonlinear systems is proposed. Under a given attenu-ation coefficient, the Hamilton–Jacobi–Isaacs equation is relaxedto an optimization problem with a set of inequalities. After apply-ing the policy iteration technique and constraining inequalitiesto SOS, the optimization problem is divided into a sequenceof feasible semidefinite programming problems. With the con-verged solution, the attenuation coefficient is further minimizedto a lower value. After iterations, approximate solutions to thesmallestL2-gain and the associatedH∞optimal controller areobtained. Four examples are employed to verify the effectivenessof the proposed algorithm.

Forza Horizon 5 community update details upcoming fixes and changes coming soon
2022 will see lots of improvements and additions to Forza Horizon 5.
Zachary Boddy
Source: Xbox Game Studios | Twitter
Forza Horizon 5 is a wildly successful and widely acclaimed racing game from Playground Games and Xbox Game Studios.
That being said, the title isn't perfect, with a myriad of bugs and glitches that have detracted from some players' experiences.
On Tuesday, Playground released a new community update that details some of the fixes and changes it's working on for FH5.
Improvements to Accolades, the Festival Playlist, wheel support, EventLab, leaderboards, and more are planned for upcoming updates.
One of the best Xbox games released in 2021 was undoubtedly Forza Horizon 5, which delivered a premium racing experience packed to the brim with content and cars. Still, many players encountered various bugs and issues in Forza Horizon 5, ranging from online multiplayer issues to faults when attempting to progress through Accolades, and much more. Playground Games has been working tirelessly to improve Forza Horizon 5 with a series of updates, and more are coming in 2022.
In a new Forza Horizon 5 community update, the developer took some time to detail the fixes and changes it's working on right now after coming back from its end-of-year break, all of which should appear in future updates throughout 2022. Some of these planned changes include:
Accolades and progression. Forza Horizon 5 features thousands of Accolades that reward players for accomplishing practically anything in the game, but many of these Accolades are bugged and cannot be completed, have progress that reset seemingly randomly, or have incorrect or misleading descriptions. Playground is investigating and working to fix all of these flaws.
Festival Playlist progress. The Forza Horizon 5 Festival Playlist is how Playground introduces new cars, events, and more to FH5 over time, but it hasn't been perfect. Several challenges and objectives have been bugged to the point where players have been unable to complete them. Playground is working on preventing this problem in the future, as well as retroactively reward players for bugged Daily Challenges and Treasure Hunts from previous Festival Playlists, among other fixes.
Leaderboards. Forza Horizon 5 features dozens of leaderboards that let players compete for the top scores and records across PR Stunts, Rivals events, and more. However, many of the top spots on these leaderboards are dominated by players who used exploits and cheats to achieve impossibly high scores. Playground is working on removing these erroneous scores and preventing future attempts to skirt the system.
Wheel support. Forza Horizon 5 touted major improvements to wheel support over its predecessors, but players (especially on PC) have continued to encounter a myriad of problems. Playground is investigating many issues when playing with the best Forza Horizon 5 steering wheels, including crashes, missing force feedback, and more.
Much more. Most of the bugs reported in Forza Horizon 5 are minor, but they're still numerous. Playground is working on many more fixes on top of these, including ones for EventLab, cars, and much more.
Playground Games relies in part on community feedback and support to track these issues and prioritize different fixes. Its intention is to improve upon the already-excellent experience in Forza Horizon 5 throughout 2022, a process that will assumedly include many patch and hotfix updates filled with fixes and tweaks.
Forza Horizon 5 has already secured its spot as one of the best Xbox racing games you can play, and is labeled as the "unchallenged champion of open-world racers" in our Forza Horizon 5 review. The game is available now on a variety of platforms and services, and will continue to evolve over time as Playground Games releases new updates, fixes, and content to players.
The unchallenged champion
The best open-world racer
Playground Games has delivered their latest masterpiece with Forza Horizon 5, which features the series' most diverse map and largest car list yet. Forza Horizon 5 somehow fulfills its ambitious promises to be the best open-world racer right now, and one of the best racing games in general.

Q: export a collection that has an array as a field from mongodb to a csv i'm trying to export data from a mongo db to a csv file.  the issue is that for a particular collection  (below).
i want to export the values in the array to the csv file, currently when i do the export the "results" field displays (in the csv file) "array[3]" as opposed to the values of the array.
 {"_id"    : ObjectId("527f2430e1542d0707000000"),
 "results" : [
       {"description" : "description number 1"},
       {"description" : "description number 2"},
       {"description" : "description number 3"}]
}

a friend mentioned that i should look into MapReduce to handle this issue.
so my question is?  is mapreduce the way to go or is there another solution that i could look into to get the array data in the exported csv file?
any suggestions would be greatly appreciated and thank you in advance.

A: No, map reduce will not help you with this. It is for making queries, not for exporting something. CSV is a text file format where every cell is marked with some sort of a delimiter (, or ; most often). So when you try to insert an array in one cell, mongo does not know what to do (and this is ok).
There is no native way to store complex data structure as a CSV (use mongodump to store your complex data). If you really need to store this as CSV you need to write you own script to iterate through all your data and come up with some appropriate format to store it.

Home Miami Law News Articles 2013 March Florida Bar Foundation Awards Grant to Children & Youth Law Clinic; Gift Honors Alumnus Burton Young
Florida Bar Foundation Awards Grant to Children & Youth Law Clinic; Gift Honors Alumnus Burton Young
Miami Law Staff Report
In an effort to support legal advocacy for Florida's foster children, The Florida Bar Foundation has awarded a grant of $100,000 toward Miami Law's Children & Youth Law Clinic. The grant, whose funds are being made available by the Batchelor Foundation, honors Miami Law alumnus Burton Young, J.D. '50.
Professor Bernard Perlmutter, co-director of the Children & Youth Law Clinic, said the award comes at a time when The Florida Bar Foundation's grants are being significantly reduced because of a steep drop in revenue from Florida's Interest on Trust Accounts program, the chief source of funds for the foundation's grants. "So in a year when we were expecting a 28 percent cut in the Bar Foundation's grant for our Statewide Foster Children's Advocacy Project," he said, "the Batchelor Foundation's gift is an act of great generosity that will help us to continue our 17 years of advocacy for Florida's foster children."
Young, an expert in family and marital law and a leader of judicial reform, was instrumental in making the award a reality. The late George Batchelor, an aviation pioneer who established the foundation, was a good friend and client of Young's. Professor Perlmutter said Young had asked the Batchelor Foundation to make the funds available to the Bar Foundation for legal services for children. The Batchelor Foundation directed the funds to the Children & Youth Law Clinic.
Young was the first Jewish-American president of The Florida Bar. Over the past six decades, he has made his mark as champion for the underserved, whether through pro bono work or by leading the charge to establish fairer legal standards. He was the 2010 recipient of the Miami Law's Alumnus of Distinction award.
"We are incredibly grateful to Mr. Young, the Batchelor family, and The Florida Bar Foundation for their support of our legal advocacy on behalf of the most vulnerable persons in our state – child victims of parental abuse and neglect placed in foster care, and young adults who have aged out of foster care," Professor Perlmutter said.
The Batchelor Foundation, based in Miami Beach, has supported many programs at the University of Miami. The foundation supports organizations involved with arts and culture, education, the environment, animals and wildlife, health, human services, and economically disadvantaged people.
The Children & Youth Law Clinic primarily assists current and former foster youths in matters of dependency, health care, mental health, disability, independent living, education, immigration and other civil areas, ensuring that they have a voice in court proceedings. The Statewide Foster Children's Advocacy Project has been funded by the Florida Bar Foundation through the Children's Legal Services grant program for ten years.

On The Passing Of Tom Spurgeon
Critic, writer, and show organizer Tom Spurgeon died on November 13th, 2019. He was fifty years old. He loved comics. Comics loved him back. What follows is a series of personal anecdotes, thoughts, and memories of Tom.
** Most people in creative fields are lucky to have a single successful avenue for expression. Tom wound up having five in his lengthy, expansive career. He was one of the best-ever editors of The Comics Journal and in general a long-time champion of minicomics in particular. He fulfilled a dream when he wrote the syndicated comic strip Wildwood. He wrote an excellent biography on Stan Lee and helmed a history of Fantagraphics, that while troubled in its final execution, was superb in the portions that he wrote and organized. He launched the single-most-important comics blog and news site, The Comics Reporter, and kept it going through thick and thin--though rarely in a way that he was satisfied with. Finally, he became Executive Director of Comics Crossroads Columbus (CXC), a remarkable show in partnership with the Billy Ireland Library at Ohio State. Let's unpack some of these.
** In my opinion, Tom is the greatest comics critic of all time and its second-best interviewer (behind only Gary Groth). He matched his catholic tastes as a critic and reader with a relentlessly searching and demanding critical acumen that celebrated excellence and hated mediocrity. His willingness to go deep and celebrate comics in all its forms is what made him unusual. You were just as likely to read about an editorial cartoonist or an EC artist as you were about a French alternative cartoonist or someone from Fort Thunder at the Journal or the Comics Reporter. His reviews were often grumpy and curmudgeonly, but he never went for cheap heat. He was direct and sometimes harsh, though he was willing to change his mind from time to time. He was perhaps the earliest advocate of comics-as-poetry in the form of Warren Craghead.
His Sunday interviews at the Comics Reporter need to be collected. He went far and wide and went deep with so many comics veterans and up-and-coming cartoonists. I was lucky enough to be interviewed twice by him, once for art comics in 2012 and once to discuss Acme Novelty Library #19. In both instances, it was clear that he clearly delved into what I wrote and pushed me in interesting directions. He was demanding. When a story arose, he wanted documentation, names and dates. As much as he knew and wrote about and documented, you could fill a hundred books with the gossip and unsourced data that was in his head that he chose not to print. Tom had a powerful sense of integrity and wasn't afraid to get into conflicts because of it.
** Indeed, I chuckled at the number of remembrances of Tom today that contain some variation of "Tom and I didn't always see eye to eye..." or "We argued all the time". However, those anecdotes were inevitably followed by an affirmation of the respect and love people had for him. For Tom, comics was too important to not take criticism seriously, even if it meant hurting feelings. That didn't mean that he didn't care about people.
Indeed, The Comics Reporter was the single biggest nexus for connecting cartoonists and writers in need with a network that could help them. I can attest to this personally, as Tom not only posted notes with regard to financial crises that I've faced over the past decade, he also personally contributed on more than one occasion.
Tom did piss people off, and recently. He had a tart tongue and knew how to zing people. Of course, his most popular target was himself. Tom was famously self-deprecating, and this wasn't a pose. It was something he struggled with, I believe. At the same time, when Tom gave you a compliment, it felt earned. He said nice things about me all the time on TCR, and "hearing" compliments is something I struggle with. But when Tom said it, I listened and took it to heart. At the most recent SPX, when he congratulated me on the slate of programming and gave specific comments on certain panels he liked, it was the most profound compliment I received in a weekend full of overwhelming thanks and praise.
** Let's talk a little more about The Comics Reporter. In an age of twitter, facebook, Instagram, and other forms of social media that make it easy to connect writers and artists with an audience, that site's influence was less pervasive. In its heyday, and pretty much up until he went to work for CXC, The Comics Reporter was required daily reading. A link from Tom meant that you were going to get read. I was incredibly grateful to Tom when he started linking my work at sequart.com because that's when my writing started to get taken seriously. When sequart died and I started my own blog, I asked Tom for some industry-related advice, and he was kind enough to give it to me.
Tom went to bat for a number of creators in a multitude of ways. Anytime he went an editorial route, his opinions were incisive and well thought out. He didn't just report the news; he was an educator. He was crucial in making sense of the past fifteen years of comics' expansion and boom time. Tom had grand plans to expand it further that never came to fruition, much to his own frustration. He was down on himself for what he considered to be TCR's mediocrity, and I told him that even in this more vestigial form, he was still conveying more information than anyone else. Tom felt that burden of imagining a project and it never appearing quite as one hoped. But he did it anyway.
** Tom somehow wrote Wildwood while writing a biography about Stan Lee and freelancing for the Journal. He kept up The Comics Reporter while writing his book about Fantagraphics. That he wasn't able to finish it the way he wanted turned what should have been a classic into something that was highly self-congratulatory. Tom had a way of getting at the facts of what made something important with no patience whatsoever for frippery or self-promotion.
** I think the project that he was simultaneously proudest of and most troubled by was CXC. It is unbelievably hard to put together a comics festival. There are a lot of moving parts, especially when you're working with the grinding gears of a college bureaucracy. He seemed constantly weary when I saw him. However, the joy in his eyes and the genuine emotion in his voice when he was able to bestow the Emerging Cartoonist award (which includes a significant cash prize) showed exactly what comics and the people behind them mean to him. It meant a lot to him to give Katie Skelly, Kevin Czap, Kat Fajardo, Keren Katz, and Carta Monir both recognition and financial support. What a marvelous list that is: cutting-edge, diverse, and possessing the same kind of community values that Tom did.
Still: I know that Tom got blowback about any number of issues. Logistics proved difficult at times. I know that he did his best, but I also know that like everything he ever did, it wasn't quite like he pictured it. It doesn't matter, though, because what he did, working with a lot of different people, was still warmly received by so many people.
** Tom Spurgeon loved comics. He loved its shitty history and calling it out. He loved what comics is becoming now, and he loved what he saw as its future. He used his influence and power to lift others up, especially later in his career. Even his meanest reviews were never personal, even if some seemed dismissive. The targets of negative reviews tended to forgive him because of his sincerity and advocacy. He helped a lot of people in a multitude of ways, including me. I modeled my approach after his. He never steered me wrong. Without his example, his advice, and his direct help, I wouldn't be writing today. He loved comics, and comics loved him, and so did I.

mini-kus #79: Powerpaola's I Couldn't Stop
Ecuadorian-Columbian cartoonist Powerpaola's debut, Virus Tropical, was an excellent childhood memoir and heralded a run of such books by women. Her autobiographical contribution for the always-excellent mini-Kus series,(#79) I Couldn't Stop, is about an evening of portents in Buenos Aires. Her style is totally immersive, from the first panel depicting a full moon in the sky with probing eyes to the transition to a close-up of her own eyes, then distancing the reader with a pair of goggles. The entire comic depicts a kind of push-and-pull with the reader and with her world, as she found herself needing to get out and see people and connect with them in part because she had been working on a comics project about sex abuse.
There is an unsettling momentum with regard to fate in this comic, starting with a reference to the horoscope and continuing on to losing a supposedly protective bracelet, a warning from a friend about being on a bike, and seeing a cop wave a gun in the air in public. Along the way, she is almost defiant about rejecting and ignoring these omens, as she desperately needs to move, be active, and see her friends. The gray wash she uses adds to the dark mood of the comic, as well as her curious blend of naturalism and cartoony and almost grotesque character design. She seems to get what she needs with regard to defying fate, connecting with her friends, and even finding hope for change with regard to abuse and horror.
However, after that final portent of the cop waving a gun around and then sharply saying "Don't criticize me!" when people call him on his recklessness, she is defiant in going home on her bike, despite her friends begging her to go with her in their car. The result implies almost a kind of hubris on her part, that she may have managed to find a way to cope with the horrors swirling in her mind, but she ignored her safety in other, more basic ways--and she paid the price. The comic cuts off right at the point of her getting injured, with no further context or explanation. Given the warnings she gave the reader and that she herself ignored, no further explanations are needed. This is a grim comic that's nonetheless filled with moments of light before it spins off into the abyss, all told with a powerful sense of humanity.

Designing for the Future
When the judges of the Lexus Design Award announced this year's Grand-Prix winner in August, they weren't awarding obscure conceptualism, they were promising resources to an innovative real-world solution aimed at improving the lives of millions. This is what has set the Lexus Design Award apart since it debuted in 2013 as a champion for emerging global design talent. Lexus, an automaker drawn to the confluence of design and technology, launched the platform to encourage people to "design for a better tomorrow." This year, they saw a staggering 2,042 proposals, from 79 countries, each aiming to develop a future-thinking solution to a challenge plaguing the world today. In January, six finalists were chosen, and Lexus fostered their ideas through collaborative mentorship from industry leaders, workshops, prototype funding, and production guidance.
For example Aqsa Ajmal, an industrial designer from Pakistan, had proposed a beautiful, and vastly simplified sewing machine—an important piece of machinery in a country where close to half the population works in the textile industry. With the support of Lexus, Ajmal was able to put her design through rigorous product testing, including ensuring that it was easily usable by those with severe sight impairment.
Feltscape, by London-based architectural designers Théophile Péju and Salvatore Cicero, is a personal cocoon made from futuristic bio-plastics. In an age of overstimulation and unending notifications, this piece of tech-furniture cancels noise, offers light blocking, and features a membrane that aligns with the frequency of human breath.
Many finalists took the growing threat of climate change as their starting point.Pratt University industrial design student Yaokun Wu created Flash Pak, a life-saving floatation device that affixes to lamp posts and rises with water levels during floods. For people without access to running water, Moscow-based product and furniture designer Irina Samoilova developed L.I.C.K., a personal hygiene device which works much like a cat's tongue. As it's pressed to the body, small protuberances with u-shaped cavities remove dirt and oil. This doesn't only address sanitation, it restores dignity.
Biocract by Sutherlin Santo.
From Lexus.
Downtown LA-based Sutherlin Santo, composed of designers Paul and Garrett Sutherlin Santo, envisioned Biocraft—a fully-biodegradable material that engages with its surrounding air, removing CO2 and even replenishing nutrients. Sutherlin Santo's mission is to replace as many inert materials (plastics and metals, for example) with the active Biocraft building block.
BellTower, a Kenya-based team of designers, formulated the dynamic, multi-tiered Open Source Communities proposal, a potential solution to clean water shortages around the world. In the form of a 46-square-foot prefabricated unit, their concept includes everything from an apparatus that collects rainwater to storage tanks and walls made from sustainable materials. If enacted, the Open Source Communities plan could decrease the spread of disease, reduce infant mortality rates, and increase time for children's education.
Despite the uncommon challenges of 2020, all six of these finalists made remote presentations before this year's judges—Senior Curator of Architecture and Design at the Museum of Modern Art, Paola Antonelli; architect and Studio Gang founder, Jeanne Gang; designer and technologist John Maeda; and Toyato's Head of Design, Simon Humphries. In the end, the Lexus Design Award was granted to BellTower's Open Source Communities.
Open Source Communities by BellTower.
The BellTower team, composed of John Brian Kamau, Joyce Wairimu Gachiri, Ian Githegi Kamau, Esther Wanjiku Kamau, and Arvin Booker Kamau, represents another Lexus Design Award milestone: the first Africa-based team to win. "Our journey began with many challenges, however, we persevered to showcase our ambitious concept," Kamau says. "Our LDA experience has taught us invaluable lifelong lessons." These lessons will benefit their work, and the extraordinary mission to design a sustainable future. The Lexus Design Award is not a platform to honor idle concepts, it's a springboard for problem solvers and the empowerment of communities.
The Lexus Design Award is accepting online submissions for the 2021 competition, now through October 11, 2020. Open to professionals, students, or anyone hoping for an opportunity to manifest change, proposals only require a product description, an explanation of how it will benefit the world, and at least two images or conceptual renderings. Each proposal should weave together the influence of design and technology. Read more about the criteria here.

Detroit Cookie Co. details metro Detroit expansion, acquires commissary kitchen in Ferndale
by Sonia Khaleel
Photo by Michelle Gerard / Courtesy of Detroit Cookie Co.
There's about to be more cookies in metro Detroit.
Lauren and Tony Sevy, the married cookie connoisseurs that own the Detroit Cookie Co., just purchased a commissary kitchen in Ferndale that Lauren predicts will launch in spring 2020.
The 4,000-square-foot building will allow the Sevys and their staff to host "cookie classes," as well as expand their catering services.
Lauren and Tony initially started the cookie company in a commercial kitchen space in Southfield called the Culinary Studio before moving to the current Ferndale brick-and-mortar spot in 2017.
Lauren says she left a stable career to pursue her true passion of baking after her husband asked her, "In a perfect world, what do you want to do?" and her response was, "I just want to make cookies."
"I grew up baking my whole life," Lauren says. "My mom, the first thing that she ever taught us to do in the kitchen was bake cookies, that's her love language, and I grew to love it as well. And I was always baking cookies and cakes around the holidays for my friends, and I carried that into my adult life."
The cookie classes would be offered for kids as well as adults, and could be booked for special events like bachelorette parties and birthdays. Adults attending could learn tips, tricks, and techniques for making the best chocolate chip cookies as well as how to write on cookie cakes, and children could attend decorating classes. Class sizes are projected to be around 15 people per class.
Detroit Cookie Co. currently already fulfills catering orders, but the larger facility will also allow the team to take on more orders. The Sevys also hope to create specific care packages, like breakup boxes, PMS boxes, girlfriend and boyfriend boxes, and college-themed boxes. The boxes could include cookies, coffee roasted by Detroit Cookie Co., and apparel merchandise.
The couple also plans to launch a cookie truck. They purchased a 1967 Divco milk truck a year and a half ago, and are in the process of bringing it back to classic car condition. The truck, expected to launch in spring 2020 as well, would serve cookies, ice cream, milk, and coffee. Lauren says they hope it will be able to serve items at MoPop, wedding events, at Campus Martius, and festivals around the area.
"We're super passionate about restoring this because these trucks were made in Detroit, manufactured in Detroit, and being on Woodward Avenue is really awesome for us," she says. "We love classic cars and we love the history on Woodward, so we're loving incorporating that into our bakery."
Lauren indicated that with this expansion, they will be staffing more employees and are eager to build a strong team of members to join the cookie family. Future plans include opening locations in Troy, Canton, and Detroit in the next couple of years.
"It's exciting and we're really driven to make this work and expand all over Michigan," Lauren said. "We would love to be in Detroit because that was my original plan when I first opened Detroit Cookie Co., so I guess I would love to just be in Detroit and be where my dreams started."
Lauren expressed delight at her company's growth so far.
"It's been awesome, it's been beyond my wildest expectations," she says. "I always believed in myself but I guess I never really could grasp where it was going until it really just started to take off."

Libman-Sacks Endocarditis in a Patient with Antiphospholipid Syndrome
Kunal D. Kotkar, Sameh M. Said
Antiphospholipid syndrome is a systemic autoimmune syndrome with cardiac manifestations such as nonbacterial thrombotic endocarditis, also known as Libman-Sacks endocarditis. A 61-year-old female with history of antiphospholipid syndrome presented in acute pulmonary edema. Echocardiography demonstrated mobile vegetations on the free margins of both the anterior and the posterior mitral valve leaflets. Blood cultures and fungal serologies were negative. During mitral valve replacement both the anterior and posterior mitral leaflets were covered with multiple small vegetations with features of nonbacterial thrombotic endocarditis. Though mostly asymptomatic, Libman-Sacks endocarditis may be an indication for valve replacement.

Arjun Maini Gears up for DTM Opener at Monza
16th June 2021, Italy: Mercedes-AMG driver Arjun Maini is confident of a good season ahead of the opening round of the revamped 2021 DTM series, scheduled to take place at the Monza race circuit in Italy between June 18-20. When quizzed at a press conference about the probable contenders for the championship, the 23-year-old Indian driver backed himself to be the surprise performance of the season.
The Bangalore-based racer, who is supported by JK Racing, has recorded a series of firsts for Indians racing abroad, and with his foray into DTM is set to become the first Indian to compete fulltime in the series. His debut DTM season with Mercedes-AMG backed GetSpeed racing team will mark a new challenge in Maini's career after his previous expeditions in the FIA Formula 2 championship and the 24 Hours of Le Mans in the LMP2 category.
Speaking about his upcoming debut Maini commented, "I'm delighted to be back racing full-time after the lockdowns affected my 2020 season. I have been wanting to race in DTM since 2015, when I was still in Formula 3, so it feels a bit surreal to finally be able to make my debut. Competing in the series certainly won't be easy but it's the challenge that makes this experience so exciting for me."
Talking about the season opener, Maini, highlighted the importance of tire management at Monza. "I personally love Monza as a circuit, and I think it's always great for racing. However, the higher temperatures this weekend will result in tire degradation. So, it won't be a flat-out sprint race, as tire management will be more important."
Maini also extended thanks to his partners for their support, "As always I'd like to thank my partners for helping me tick another milestone off my bucket list. I wouldn't have gotten here without the help of my longtime supporter J.K.Tyre who have been with me since my Formula 4 days. I would also like to welcome my latest partner Mumbai Falcons who I'm honored to say have supported my vision of becoming the first Indian to stand on a DTM podium."
"Finally, I'd like to thank Mercedes-AMG and GetSpeed for giving me the opportunity to race one of these beasts. The Mercedes AMG GT3 race car is enthralling to drive, and I can't wait to see what happens once the lights turn green on race day."
DTM is Germany's premier racing series, with pre-covid track attendance figures topping over 60 thousand on race day. An added dynamic to look out for this year is the championship's technical overhaul, which now sees the introduction of the powerful and exciting GT3 class of racing cars.
This means that while the series will continue featuring the German triumvirate of Mercedes, BMW, and Audi, this year's championship will now also welcome Italian stallions Ferrari and Lamborghini along with British stalwarts McLaren.
The 2021 DTM series will be broadcasted live in India at Autocar India's YouTube channel - https://www.youtube.com/autocarindia1
Race Schedule – Autodromo Nazionale di Monza, June 19-20.


in some nations like the middle east people are not allowed to express their feelings and thoughts. In this painting I tried to show this situation (Opposition to Freedom of Expression) and the after of someone expressing their feelings and thoughts when they were not allowed to express their selves and what happened to them. The drawer which has opened in the Forehead of the man shows him expressing his thoughts which he is not allowed to express them. And in the bottom left hand side there is a Corridor which is the heart of the man and since he can't express his feelings he if fighting with his thoughts inside his heart. In this Corridor which is like prison the government is the Prison guard to keep peoples Freedom of speech. On the right hand side there is two people which are Iranians myth in persian in a book called Shahnameh which a father ( Rostam ) kills his own son in war without knowing that he was his son (Sohrab) which at the end of Sohrab's last words Rostam realizes that Sohrab was his own son . In this part the meaning of this is that people kill their own thoughts and feelings so they won't be killed. The other people in the painting are a sign of different social classes which without knowing the social problems carry on living.

Q: What Kind of Type Definitions are Legal in Local Contexts? In Isabelle's NEWS file, I found

Command 'typedef' now works within a local theory context -- without
  introducing dependencies on parameters or assumptions, which is not
  possible in Isabelle/Pure/HOL.  Note that the logical environment may
  contain multiple interpretations of local typedefs (with different
  non-emptiness proofs), even in a global theory context.

(which dates back to Isabelle2009-2). Is this the latest news with respect to typedef and local theory contexts? Further, what does the restriction "without introducing dependencies on parameters or assumptions" actually mean?
If it would mean that I cannot use locale parameters in the defining set of a typedef, then I would not consider typedef to be localized at all (since the only allowed instances can easily be moved outside the local context, or am I missing something?).
Is it (or should it, or will it ever be) possible to do something along the lines (where the set used for a typedef depends on the locale parameter V):
datatype ('a, 'b) "term" = Var 'b | Fun 'a "('a, 'b) term list"

locale term_algebra =
  fixes F :: "'a set"
    and V :: "'b set"
begin

definition "domain α = {x : V. α x ~= Var x}"

typedef ('a, 'b) subst =
  "{α :: 'b => ('a, 'b) term. finite (domain α)}"

end

for which I currently obtain:
Locally fixed type arguments "'a", "'b" in type declaration "subst"

A: A few more notes on this:

*

*The local theory infrastructure merely organizes existing module concepts (locale, class etc.) such that definitional mechanisms (definition, theorem, inductive, function etc.) can work uniformly in a variety of contexts.  This does not change the logical foundations, so specification elements that cannot depend on term parameters (fixes) or premises (assumes) won't become fundamentally better.  They are merely retrofitted into the greater framework, which is already an extra-logical benefit.

*The canonical local theory targets are locale and its derivatives like class.  These work within the logic according to the principles sketched above: lambda-lifting via some context of fixes and assumes.  Other targets with more ambition can be imagined, but need to be implemented by some brave and heroic guys.  For example, one could wrap up the AWE theory interpretation mechanism as another local theory target, and then get parametrization of types/consts/axioms --- at the usual cost of going through explicit proof terms to implement admissible inferences within an LCF prover (or at the cost of giving up LCF-ness and do it via some oracle).

*Plain typedef as sketched above (and its derivatives like the localized codatatype and datatype of recent HOL-BNF) could be slightly improved in its dependecy type parameters, but this would mean some implementation efforts that don't justify the meagre outcome right now.  It would merely allow to write polymorphic type constructions with implicit arguments like this:
context fixes type 'a
begin
datatype list = Nil | Cons 'a list
end

After export you would get 'a list as usual.
Further complication: fixes type 'a does not exist.  Isabelle/Pure handles type parameters implicitly via Hindley-Milner.

A: In the meanwhile, this question was answered on the Isabelle mailing list.
The short version is that what I tried to do is simply impossible. What follows is an explanation by @makarius:

[Without introducing dependencies on parameters or assumptions] means you cannot refer to the fixes/assumes of context in the type specification -- this is logically impossible in Isabelle/Pure/HOL. Only the non-emptyness proof lives within the context, and the resulting theorems are local. (Actual dependence of the proof on logical content of the context is hard to get in practice, though.)
'typedef' is formally localized within the range of what is possible. Localization means to work with the local theory infrastructure and the context in the usual ways.  For typedef this means extra-logical things like name spaces, syntax, derived declarations etc.
Historically, due to the impossibility to make typedef depend on the logical part of the context, it was not localized at all, and many tool implementations suffer from that until today.

As for my specific example:

You would have to evade the scope clash [...] by using different names for the parameters of type subst.
  Nonetheless, this does not work from a logical standpoint: the dependency on term parameter V cannot be used in HOL typedef. The local theory concept does not provide magic ways to augment the logic -- it is merely infrastructure for an existing logical framework.
