Cantonese Bopomofo, or Cantonese Phonetic Symbols () is an extended set of Bopomofo characters used to transcribe Yue Chinese and, specifically, its prestige Cantonese dialect. It was first introduced in early 1930s, and then standardized in 1950. It fell into disuse along with the original Bopomofo for Mandarin Chinese in the late 1950s.

History
The first system of phonetic characters for Cantonese was introduced in "Phonetic vocabulary of Cantonese characters for instruction of literacy to the people", 1931, by Ziu Ngaating. His system became a basis for the modern one, accepted in 1950 by the Guangdong Culture and Education department. In 1932, however, a different system was published in a draft by the Commission on the Unification of Pronunciation with supplementary symbols for non-Mandarin Sinitic languages, including Cantonese.

Symbols
Bopomofo for Cantonese contains additional characters to denote its specific sounds.

Combined rhymes
The original Bopomofo was based on a two vowel model of Mandarin phonology, it contains two sets of vowel signs, one for the /a/-nucleus and another one for the /ə/ nucleus. These characters were inherited, with /a/ set used to denote long  of Cantonese, and /ə/ set for short . For the rhymes not found in Mandarin, Cantonese Bopomofo implements digraphs composed of a vowel character and a final consonants character. The monographs are highlighted in bold in the following table .

Notes:

1 Final   does not occur by itself.

2 Finals  ,  ,  ,  ,   only occur in colloquial readings, they were not included in the initial draft.

Tonal Marks
Tones can be left unmarked, but if necessary, you may mark them like in the table below.

It is pleasant to sit and dream, awhile of the things that have passed away.
And dainty dames with the tarnished names, and the smiles and the powdered hair.
And sin was hardly a thing to shun when it beckoned with such a grace.
And ruin and famine and death and Hell not half a mile from the gate.!
Hell, and they couldn't see it! Death, and they only played!
Till the tumbrels came and the guillotine: but at least they were not afraid.
Silent and cold, and grey and old, like the ghosts of forgotten days.
With the royal face, and the human heart, and the tears—could we but forget!
Did you know it at last, and understand, when the time had come to die?
To pierce the cloud that has dimmed our eyes, and to see things as they are.
And if death and famine stalk through the land, it isn't enough to be kind.
And after the din and the strife and sin there is peace, we hope, at the last.
But a giant lie has been swept away, and France and the world have gained.


Routines, routines, routines, how much of life is governed by them?
It struck me the other day how much of life is governed by routines, especially it seems around young children. Now, I'm not talking about do this routine and your baby/toddler/gang of unruly children will suddenly conform and start sleeping on a schedule, personally that's not something I would strive for, but just our daily comings and goings.
My toddler has recently started occasionally having days when she doesn't want a nap and this change in the routine has been a big shock to us all. She is so grumpy and tired in the late afternoon on the days she hasn't napped and there is a strange period to fill where I feel we should be having a bit of quiet time, when she would've been napping, but she doesn't quite seem to have got the memo! Thankfully this has been only a handful of occasions so far but I know the time is coming when she won't have an afternoon nap (sob!) and we'll need to settle into a new routine.
We are all creatures of habit..
…and I know for me personally routines help me keep on track so it is inevitable that routines play a big part on our daily lives when we are busy with young children. I'm all in favour of making life easier and hopefully a good routine will do just that. Often routines are aimed at making sure tasks are completed in a timely and consistent manner which is ideal for making sure amongst the chaos we eat, sleep, wash, clean etc on a regular basis.
However, that doesn't mean routines need to be a mundane thing, I was thinking it might be nice to start some fun routines that can grow with my girls. After all, for me, these are often the basis of our childhood memories.
Some of my favourite memories are based around routines going to look for the sweets my Grandma always left in the same place when we visited, my Mum's roast dinners on Sundays, getting to eat tea in front of the t.v. on Saturday's, getting the bus with my Mum to go shopping rather going in the car which seemed so much more exciting. I want to create this for my girls.
So often they involve people who are close to us and usually the best routines evolve organically without a conscious decision to undertake something in a particular manner. There is a huge amount of pressure from social media to be 'making memories' and producing a highlight reel of picture perfect moments. Hopefully I can find a happy place in the middle where we can create our own special routines, they may last 6 weeks, 6 months or 6 years who knows?
They may just evolve out of the slightly chaotic haze of life with a toddler and a baby or perhaps I'll try some ideas out and see how they fit for us. I'm thinking of keeping the routine of fun do-it-yourself snacks with story books on Friday afternoons, which we've enjoyed for the last 2 or 3 weeks, sounds like a good one to start with to me. Either way I hope my girls will remember the routines we establish with as much joy as I do my own childhood rituals.

Eek! It's been over a week since I've posted anything.
Is anyone still out there? doubtful.
I've kept myself busy cleaning and painting. and painting. Did I mention painting??? I really do love to paint, but this project is taking forever. Just redoing my master bedroom/bathroom but all of a sudden it seems 10 times larger than it actually is. Plus I changed my mind about one of the colors halfway through. That certainly didn't help things move along.
So anyway... I'm here. The plan is to post a little "studio" tour later this week but for now all I can leave you with is this teaser photo. Hope you come back!
We have repainted the whole house - I chose a vintage chocolate color with beige - looks so fresh again!
I'm about to embark on my own renovations and look forward to your creative posts.
I love to create... with scissors and glue... needle and thread... sugar, butter and eggs... It really doesn't matter to me- it's just fun to make something! I've been married to my best friend for more than 30 sweet years. He has always been my biggest supporter and encourages me to live a creative life. I have a daughter in grad school and she's been the joy of my days since the moment she was born. I'm a lucky, lucky girl!

Leak: Microsoft's Surface Duo 2 is shaping up to be a phone you might actually want
It has legit-looking cameras this time

Microsoft's Surface Duo was an awesome idea with unfortunate execution.
I can personally see the use for a dual-screen phone without the durability concerns of a flexible screen, but reviewers found the device to be too weak, too expensive, and too buggy at launch to be worth recommending to most people. But perhaps one of its biggest sins was the lack of a competitive camera. There was no camera on the outside of the device, and users were stuck using the middling 11MP selfie cam for all their photos.
The Surface Duo 2 appears to change that in a big way, at least according to leaks. Images have, ahem, surfaced online showing the Duo 2 with a massive rear camera hump that at the very least suggests Microsoft is serious about photography this time.
A mysterious video was posted to YouTube in June showcasing supposed leaked images of the device to the tune of a robotic narrator. It obtained few views, and didn't gather much attention originally, but today Windows Central said it could confirm "the photos in question are legitimate." The device is expected to offer three external cameras with the usual combo of wide, ultrawide, and telephoto lenses.

Other details shown off in the photos include a frosted glass design and a potential black colorway (the original only came in gray). There's no fingerprint reader, which points to it being relocated to the power button, or perhaps Microsoft will use an under-display technology.
According to Windows Central, Microsoft plans to release the Duo 2 in September or October, and it'll pack flagship specs beyond the camera. That means a Snapdragon 888, 5G, and NFC (seriously, the original omitted that), putting it on par with other 2021 flagships.
By comparison, the original launched with mid-tier specs which would lead it to quick obsoletion — and it showed with the device's performance (although Microsoft did smooth things out with some updates). The improved specs are especially welcome given that, you know, the phone's whole premise is being able to run multiple apps at once.
My one big question now is… how is the phone going to fold? I mean, this angle shows just how massive that hump is:
That hump looks like it's going to make things awkward, like the phone won't be able to fold flat in the outward direction. It's likely a necessity, as there's only so much you can shrink a camera and still expect good photos, and Microsoft seems bent on maintaining the phone's thin form factor. I suppose we'll find out more in a few months.

Not to Be Pro-Art Desecration, But I Simply Love This Terrible Restoration
Another "restoration" of a Spanish painting goes horribly wrong, but also, in its own way, right.
By Kenzie Bryant
From Kobal/Shutterstock.
Eight years ago "Monkey Christ" crossed our desks. An elderly parishioner in Borja, a northeastern Spanish town, took it upon herself to "restore" the Ecce Homo. The then octogenarian painted a sort of holy howler monkey in lieu of the original. The hubris. The earnestness. The do-gooder impulse gone wrong. It was a kind of masterpiece in its own way.
And yet these types of works, of which there have been several since, are neither accepted into the art-world canon nor the historical one. Take for example one of the latest. A piece by baroque artist Bartolomé Esteban Murillo in a private collection in Valencia, Spain. Some furniture restorer reportedly charged the painting's owner over a thousand dollars to restore the thing, and managed to completely redo it—twice. Let's just say they simplified it.
Some folks are outraged. Like this man that The Guardian interviewed, Fernando Carrera, a professor at the Galician School for the Conservation and Restoration of Cultural Heritage. "I don't think this guy—or these people—should be referred to as restorers," Carrera told The Guardian. "Let's be honest: they're bodgers who botch things up. They destroy things." Bodgers who botch things up. Those are fighting words.
But are the two new versions not art also? Do they not say anything? Like, is it commentary on plastic surgery overwrought—faces smoothed over, recessions filled, noses whittled? Is it commentary on the idea that you can rewrite historic iconography just as easily as you can destroy it, and tell me, which is ultimately more dangerous, hm? Is it a suggestion of how "Monkey Christ" was the height of human endeavors—true art reflecting an artless world?
And does it not make one feel? Relief that this comparatively low-stakes issue can still bubble up in a fraught and tumbling world? The thrill knowing it's possible to overestimate one's artistic talent so grotesquely? Confusion over how often these cases seem to come out? I don't know if there's any legitimacy to these provocations and feelings, but there's enough of these things to put on a show, which would be wonderful to attend whenever it's possible to be in a crowd. Certainly there would be a crowd.

Home Morocco World News Pentagon, NATO to Send Missiles and Troops to Turkey
Pentagon, NATO to Send Missiles and Troops to Turkey
By Jamal Boubakri
Washington, December 14, 2012
U.S. Defense Secretary, Leon Panetta has signed an order to deploy 400 U.S. troops to Turkey to support NATO's efforts to protect Turkish territory from any potential Syrian missile attack, the Pentagon said Friday.
Mr. Panetta signed this order en route to Turkey from Afghanistan, calling for the deployment of 400 troops to undisclosed location in Turkey. They will operate two batteries of patriots, Pentagon press secretary George Little told reporters.
The United States has been supporting Turkey in its efforts to defend itself, Little said. "NATO has recently offered up Patriot missile battery capability to Turkey, which is a very strong ally of the United States," he said.
"I'm not going to go into precise locations at this time, he added, "but I wanted to let you … know that we signed that order and that we are prepared in the context of NATO to support the defense of Turkey for an unspecified period of time."
NATO had agreed recently to send missiles and troops to protect Turkish borders. As pressures on Bashar Al Assad's regime rise, NATO and leaders of countries in the most volatile region in the world, Middle East, are watching the situation closely. Recently, the Syrian regime intensified its offensive strategy against its own people by firing Scud missiles, a measure that shows that it is losing control of the country as rebels seize more territory.
International experts, including a high profile Russian official, agree that Syrian government is losing control, and it is just a matter of time before Assad's regime collapses.

There's a little business in San Diego called Susan M Greene Notary. It's specifically located in Solana Beach and is owned by Susan Green. Note that his is not the same Susan M Green whom the California State Bar Association has located in Northern California. This Susan Greene is just a notary, not an attorney. This is an important distinction as you'll soon see. Ms. Greene is joined in this duty by an Assistant named Joseph Click, JD. Yet it turns out he's not the same Joseph Click who's listed in the California State Bar Association either. According to Susan Green, he has a law degree, but has not actually passed the bar.

Up to the time of his death, Horrie Godden was the club's most constant competitor. He rarely missed a race! As well as his success in local races he cruised to New Zealand in 1967 and 1969 and competed in the Auckland to Suva race, as well as the Whangerei to Noumea race. His most consistent effort was in the Brisbane to Gladstone race coming second in 1964, third in 1965, and second again in 1966. (He did not compete in 1967, but Wal Burke kept the club's reputation to the fore by winning that year!) Horrie competed again in 1968, and came second again! He followed this with a third in 1970.

The Joseph Smith Translation in Light of the New Testament: An Examination of Key Passages in the Gospel of John Part 1D
Joel B. Groat
Parts 1.D - 1.E: Differing Views [RLDS-LDS] Significance to Contemporary Mormons
1.D. Historical Note: Differing Views of LDS and RLDS Churches
Both RLDS and LDS church members would generally agree on the historical information presented to this point. However, following Joseph's death, his translation manuscripts, and the Bible in which he made marginal and textual notations, stayed with his wife Emma Hale Smith. Latter-day Saints under the leadership of Brigham Young (who later led the largest portion of Latter-day Saints to Utah) attempted to beg, purchase, or otherwise obtain the original manuscripts of the revision from Emma, but she staunchly refused to give them up. When the Saints departed for Utah, she and her son joined what became known as the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (RLDS — but since April 6, 2001, has adopted the name Community of Christ) headquartered in Independence, Missouri. The RLDS Church, possessing the original manuscripts and marked Bible, and convinced that Joseph completed the work of revision, published it under the title "The Inspired Version" of the Holy Scriptures, and considered it authoritative. I have included as Appendix A, copies of the original manuscript pages of the "Inspired Version" for all verses analyzed in the final section of this paper.1
The LDS church has in its possession a partial copy of the translation manuscripts copied prior to Joseph's death by John Milton Bernhisel. The incompleteness of the "Bernhisel Manuscript" and evidence indicating Joseph was continuing to make changes up till the time of his death, are the grounds upon which the LDS Church had traditionally rejected the RLDS publication of the Inspired Revision as a separate work of sacred Scripture. Due in large degree to Robert J. Matthews' work comparing the reliability of the various JST manuscripts, the Mormon Church has softened its position. Thus, while it has yet to publish its own edition of the new translation under a separate cover, much of the content is included in the LDS edition of the King James Bible.
The issues of whether Joseph completed his revision work, and the accuracy of the various RLDS versions of the Inspired Revision have been discussed at great length by other authors, and therefore readers are referred to the bibliography of this paper (particularly the works of Matthews) should they wish to pursue these areas.
An excellent historical summary of RLDS and LDS attitudes toward the JST is found in Thomas L. Sherry's 1988 BYU dissertation entitled Attitudes, Practices, and Positions Toward Joseph Smith's Translation of the Bible: A Historical Analysis of Publications, 1847-1987. Sherry documents the differing positions and summarizes his findings with the following comparisons. His parallel column arrangement (found on page 10) provides both a summary and overview of the shift in attitudes found within the RLDS and LDS Churches regarding the Joseph Smith Translation. (Sherry 1988, 165-167)
RLDS POSITION TO 1900 RLDS POSITION, 1987
a. The work of revision was divinely commanded, guided, and completed. a. Joseph Smith perceived his work of Bible revision as being divinely commanded, guided, and sufficiently complete to warrant publication plans.
b. The revision clarified and corrected many difficult and erroneous aspects present in other versions, and "restored many plain and precious" lost parts. b. Changes made in the revision represent what Joseph Smith believed to be inspired commentary, and grew out of his effort to clarify and correct the Bible text according to his 19th century understanding and resources. Such changes probably do not represent actual restorations of ancient texts.
c. Having been divinely instigated, guided, and approved, the revision was a better product than those Bible versions limited to human scholarship. c. The Inspired Version should not be considered categorically better than other Bible versions, particularly those produced by modern Bible scholars.
d. Divine commands to preserve, publish, and give to the world Joseph Smith's revision were accomplished by the RLDS Church and hence mark it as the true Church of the Restoration. d. (modification of elements 1-3 have resulted in no comparable position being taken in the last decade of publications)
e. Members should not disparage the King James, or other versions, but should use the Inspired Version in preference to them particularly where differences occur. e. Members are encouraged to use the version of the Bible which best meets their particular need.
LDS POSITION TO 1900 LDS POSITION, 1987
a. The work of revision was divinely commanded and guided, but not completed. a. The work of revision was divinely commanded, guided, and completed sufficiently to be used.
b. The revision clarified and corrected many difficult or erroneous aspects present in other versions, and "restored many plain and precious" lost parts of the Bible record. b. (same)
c. Since Joseph Smith did not complete his revision, the RLDS Inspired Version is an unauthorized publication. c. Having verified the accuracy of the RLDS Inspired Version (by comparison with the manuscripts), changes found therein may authoritatively be used.
d. The King James Version is the standard Bible of the Church until such time the Lord otherwise directs. Presumably, this would be the preparation of Joseph Smith's revision for an officially authorized publication. d. The LDS edition of the Bible, containing King James Version text and employing numerous references from the JST, is the standard Bible of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints until the Lord directs otherwise.
Sherry's extensive survey, which covers all the known literature for the years 1847-1987, does much to establish an official LDS (Utah Mormons) position, regarding Joseph's translation work, and shows that the changes made are currently considered acceptable and authoritative by the LDS Church.
1.E. Significance of the JST to Contemporary Latter-day Saints
While today's Mormon does not have the Joseph Smith Translation as a separate scripture, there is ample evidence indicating the changes are viewed as inspired, and therefore significant to contemporary Latter-day Saints. LDS leaders have created a need for the JST for they continue to teach Mormon people the false notion that the biblical text is essentially corrupted and unreliable due to what has been lost from it.
Mormon missionaries today continue to advocate this low view of the Bible's reliability, though in a much more subtle way. They are encouraged to place the greatest emphasis on the Book of Mormon, which, as previously shown, undermines the Bible's authority. A booklet written to help Mormon missionaries in their proselytizing efforts entitled Converting With The Book Of Mormon quotes Mormon Apostle Bruce R. McConkie:
But let me tell you, it is not the Bible that brings people into the [LDS] Church; it is the Book of Mormon and latter-day revelation. We can use the Bible to lay a foundation, but until we get involved with latter-day revelation, the processes of conversion do not begin to operate in any substantial degree in the heart of an investigator [potential convert to Mormonism].2
Following this quote the author comments:
Conversion occurs only when people receive a testimony that Joseph Smith was a prophet of God. Unless people come to appreciate Joseph Smith's role in translating the Book of Mormon and sense keenly the value of the contents of the Book of Mormon, they will not be convinced that Joseph Smith was a prophet.3
Under the heading of "Precious Truths Restored" on page nineteen of this same book we read the following:
Some of the men involved in preserving and translating these records over the years have not been inspired, and it is common knowledge that they have allowed errors and omissions in the Bible in its present form. One purpose of the Book of Mormon is to restore many of the precious truths of the gospel of Jesus Christ lost from the Bible.
Thus we see that Mormons missionaries, in their proselytizing, create a need for additional revelation, a need met, not only in the Book of Mormon, Doctrine & Covenants, and Pearl of Great Price, but also in the Joseph Smith Translation of the Bible.
The LDS Church publishes its own edition of the King James Version Bible, containing footnotes and marginal references. In the section explaining abbreviations is the following entry:
JST: Joseph Smith Translation. Excerpts from the Prophet Joseph Smith's translation of the Bible. Short excerpts are provided in the footnotes; longer excerpts are provided in the Appendix. Italic type in these JST excerpts is used for words not found in the King James Version.4
This Bible has been published since 1979, and is copyrighted by the Corporation of the President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, making it official Scripture and doctrine.
Placing Joseph's revisions alongside the biblical text with no attempt at disclaimer or explanation has sent a clear message to members of the LDS Church. Kevin L. Barney's article on the Joseph Smith Translation in Dialogue: A Journal of Mormon Thought states:
It is often assumed in Church classrooms, periodicals, and manuals that the JST does in fact represent the original or ancient state of a biblical passage. Many a Sunday School discussion over a problematical biblical passage ends with reference to the JST version and the assertion that it represents the original wording. Of course, a perfect restoration would be in the language of the original, but the idea is that the JST gives the English sense of the original Greek or Hebrew texts of the Bible.5
The late LDS Apostle Bruce R. McConkie who wrote concerning the JST in Mormon Doctrine furthers this assumption:
In all cases where major changes were made, the student with spiritual insight can see the hand of the Lord manifest; the marvelous flood of light and knowledge revealed through the Inspired Version of the Bible is one of the great evidences of the divine mission of Joseph Smith.6 (emphasis in original)
Mormon scholars and historians have further underlined the significance of the JST for today's Mormon. Robert J. Matthews, considered the Church's foremost authority on the JST, cited as part of his list of reasons why a study of the JST was significant: (a) its close association with "the doctrinal and scriptural development with the Church," and (b) its direct connection with the "three of the standard works of the Church (the Bible, the Doctrine and Covenants and the Pearl of Great Price)."7 His book on the JST published in 1985 has further reinforced this view. He writes:
It is not so much what is in the Bible but rather the omissions and the missing parts that constitute the problem. The major deficiency is that "many plain and precious things have been taken away," with the two fold consequence that (1) the reader is deprived of the benefit of the missing material and (2) what remains is often not as meaningful as it would be if the record were complete, because of the relationship between events and background information is sometimes lost.8
Arch S. Reynolds states, under the heading, "Importance of the Bible to the Saints,"
"The L.D.S. believe the Bible as it originally was written by its authors but believe it was not given in its original purity in any of the existing versions before the time of the Inspired Version given by Joseph Smith."9
This, he explains, has now resulted in a new advantage for Mormons today who should not "let skeptics and scoffers of the Scriptures upset us in our religion," but rather find that in going to the truth in the JST they can be free from "their snares and temptations." He encourages Latter-day Saints to "ponder over God's word in its pristine purity, for in it we have joy, comfort, and a better hope of the greater life."10
Literature of the last 10 years shows that the LDS position regarding the JST has shifted toward officially embracing as doctrinally correct those changes made by Joseph Smith. Members are encouraged to make use of it both in personal study and teaching. Robert J. Matthews has been at the forefront of the movement to re-emphasize the JST with statements like the following:
The Joseph Smith Translation provides many items of clarification as well as additional information, and its contributions are usually doctrinal in nature.
... Other passages remove contradictions, clarify obscure or vague statements, correct erroneous conclusions, and offer much information not available from any other source. The Joseph Smith Translation is one of the major contributions of the Prophet Joseph Smith towards understanding the Bible, and it is an excellent study guide to help readers obtain the true meaning and intention of many passages.11
The JST is one of the great "undiscovered" and unappreciated works of Joseph Smith, which will yet see its fulfillment and enjoy its full measure of contribution. I am confident that when the dust of argument, scholarship, and research has cleared away, the evidence will show that Joseph Smith the Prophet was as inspired in his translation of the Bible as he was in any other category of his life, both in clarifying the text and in restoring lost material.12
It would appear safe to conclude that the Mormon Church views the JST as doctrinally correct, an improvement on the text of the King James Version (or any other version produced by non-Mormon scholarship), and a translation that restores lost and corrupted biblical text. Sherry found at the conclusion of his study that, "There are no instances in LDS publications of objection to a restorationist view of Joseph's revision."13
Do we have the means for testing the accuracy of Joseph Smith's revisions? Is there a way to prove or disprove his claims to have provided the world with an inspired restoration of the Scriptures to their pristine purity? Yes, Joseph Smith's work can be tested, and the next section establishes grounds for conducting such an evaluation.

2 Grant Von Harrison, Converting With The Book Of Mormon, (Provo, Utah: Aaron Publishing and Indexing, 1981), 3. It should be noted that the late Bruce R. McConkie continues to be viewed as one of the chief authorities on Mormon doctrine. His key work, Mormon Doctrine, is the primary systematization of LDS theology, and holds a high position of authority after the LDS scriptures.

Note that this is a departure from what Joseph Smith taught. The early LDS position was that the Bible was corrupted and unreliable in its existent state. Since this is not a defensible position due to the vast amount of manuscript evidence, LDS scholars, like Matthews, have shifted to say the only problem with the Bible is that parts are missing, but that what is there is accurate.

The significance of this dissertation is heightened by the fact that Robert J. Matthews and Robert L. Millet, LDS scholars who have done extensive research and writing on the JST, were both on the committee that reviewed and approved Sherry's work.

Tooth Fairy leaves $225M under Pillows each year
amajikes • February 28, 2015
By Alison Majikes/Special to Benco Dental
I don't know about you, but back when I was a kid, when I lost a tooth I got 50 cents under my pillow the next morning, a dollar if I was lucky…but my, how times have changed.
These days, the tooth fairy is hard at work shelling out top-dollar for all the baby teeth gracing pillows every day across the globe.
A recent survey by oral healthcare company Sunstar Gum found that money parents shell out nationwide is on the increase.
But according to Yahoo parenting, the exact dollar amount varies by region, with NYC parents giving the highest payout, averaging $13.25 for every baby tooth lost.
The company surveyed 1,000 families earlier this month (by the way, today, February 28, is National Tooth Fairy Day!) that focused on five cities: New York City, Los Angeles, Boston, Chicago and Dallas/Houston.
Boston clocked in with the lowest per tooth payout out of the five cities surveyed, with an average of $5.02 per pearly white.
While Los Angeles and New York parents may dole seemingly inflated amounts, Yahoo Parenting found that most parents across the country give their children between $1 and $5 when their children's tooth falls out.
According to an article by DailyMail.com, during an informal Facebook survey on the matter, parents around the country recalled their own days as gap-toothed children, receiving quarters from the Tooth Fairy. In 2014, parents paid an average of $4.36 for each tooth lost, up 25% from the 2013 average of $3.50.
So, if you're a parent to a little one these days, you might want to start saving up for all those teeth they're going to lose. Kids are expecting a bigger payout every year!

The musician behind SXSW debuts 'Operator' and 'The Surrogate' and says music in the virtual space is still in progress.
But maybe he's figured it out. At South by Southwest, Lewis's most recent scores — the techno-drama Operator starring Martin Starr (Silicon Valley) and Mae Whitman, and the VR thriller The Surrogate — tackle our ever-changing understanding of human interactivity with breakthrough technology. Lewis's scores, a meld of electronics, and acoustics reflect these seismic shifts.
Before the Austin festival, Lewis spoke to Inverse and told us how he composed one of SXSW's hidden gems and how the rules for composing VR are still being written.
At SXSW this year, you have Operator and The Surrogate. What can you tell me about your understanding of the two projects?
It's exciting, they're two films that are similar in their stories but very different in form and the way they're experienced. Both have to do with technology, a relationship to and how it's interfering with real relationships in our personal lives. [They're about] artificial intelligence and where we're going in the future.
Technology and human relationships are popular themes, evidenced in things like Her and Black Mirror. How did you approach your score for Operator?
Technology is mediating our communications more and more, but where we could be going is our relationships [aren't just] with another human but an algorithm. It was fun to work on these themes musically, the score has a chamber ensemble with a string quartet, piano, acoustic guitar, drum set and percussion. Then there's a whole electronic side, each electronic instrument maps directly to the other of the acoustic. [We] recreated them from scratch with a modular synthesizer. That created a score that was able to express these emotions electronically.
Considering how these films are so crucially about technology, why did you include natural and classic sounds in Operator?
For me it was about two co-existing worlds, one virtual and one natural, and how they are co-existing in harmony and conflicting, fighting over the same space. It was important to have pieces. If you have two things set against each other in contrast, it makes each one more powerful. Electronic music sounds more electronic when it's in the context of acoustic music. The quality of something that's natural can sound even more natural when you're setting it against something very unnatural.
What was your favorite part of Operator to score?
There's some beautiful scenes of Lake Michigan where the character, Joe, goes running every day. He measures his health data, goes to Lake Michigan and takes a picture. There is a scene where they were like, "This is one of the most important pieces of the film. This is all you, Sage." The music had to be simple too, it wasn't telling with a lot of gestures. It was just a couple minutes of a few gestures that were simple to place and could really hit you in the heart. That was the most exciting for me.
Mae Whitman (left) plays Emily, who voices her programmer husband's artificial creation. Joe (Martin Starr, right) becomes enthralled in recreating Emily, which threatens their marriage.
How do you compose a subjective experience in VR versus a movie like Operator?
It's exciting because no one understands how to do it. There's nowhere you can study it, not even to check out other VR projects to see what they've done because it's still not that accessible. There's a lot of figuring yourself. We have our own Oculus headsets we used to develop this. Sometimes we go to VR conferences to see other content but for the most part, it's a product that hasn't hit the market yet.
How about video games, which you've worked on — and also are a subjective technological experiences?
In some ways it's like video games but the experience is different. The Surrogate isn't a game but an "interactive film," which did a really good job figuring out new territory of VR. It's 12 minutes long, it's spherical, meaning rather than a 16x9 frame you're in the film anywhere you look, behind you, up, down, you can walk around. It's this hybrid of CG shot with a spherical camera, [with] real characters. Not avatars.
As you go around, some of the music [are] used the [whole] time to support the narrative. There's this other type located in spaces. If you go to that space, you'll hear it but if you're not, you don't. There's a lot you need to communicate when you're in a film to make the story work so people don't miss important parts but [in VR] you don't have control over the user. The user can wander anywhere.
The score [in VR] helps the emotional arc be communicated, whether they're paying attention in the performance or not. You've got to use the score to bring things together because you don't have control. This is interesting for me because internally, in the character you're inside of it's a psychological thriller for that character inside their mind and body, but in the outside world it's not. It's people moving around and talking, not a regular thriller with action.
'The Surrogate' being demoed at a VR conference.
Camera angles in films communicate narrative and theme, which music intensifies. In VR, it seems like music is doing all the work.
It's hard to figure out too because when I'm composing, I can't experience it. I can't demo it because you can't compose with the headset on. In a film, you can watch it, put in the music and watch it again and have a bunch of people sit down together and talk about it.
VR is similar to theater actually. Some people have good seats, some people have bad seats. They're looking at all angles. From the musical perspective, you know how things are going to sync. You don't have to guess how they're going to feel on stage when you're working on it. [In VR] you're guessing, imagining it in your mind, materials you're referencing that are helping inform you of how things are supposed to look and feel on the end.
It's never finished. It just keeps changing. The Surrogate, we just finished doing the latest update to it. Then we'll keep working on it for a long time based on what we learn. Things are slower because you're relying on programmers, things break all the time inside the system. It's so different.
How long do you think it will take for composers to find the rhythm for music in VR?
Figuring out how to write music for VR will take as long as figuring out the other elements. I think three to five years until it starts getting to a point it's working and part of everyone's lives. This year, VR will be heading to market. It will probably take years to improve the prototype and figure out how to create content but I see it happening around 2020, when it's a well-developed form. Film took a long time too. There were great films from the beginning, Charlie Chaplin and stuff like that, but to develop that technology took a long time until its golden age. We're still far away from that but it's happening now. We're going to start seeing it this year. It's exciting.

Federal Reserve Board permanently bars two former employees of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. from the banking industry
March 12, 2019 / Source: FRB
For release at 10:00 a.m. EDT
The Federal Reserve Board on Tuesday announced that it is prohibiting Tim Leissner and Ng Chong Hwa, also known as Roger Ng, from the banking industry for their participation in a scheme to illegally divert billions of dollars from a Malaysian sovereign wealth fund. Leissner was also fined $1.42 million and consented to the permanent ban.
Leissner and Ng, former senior investment bankers employed by foreign subsidiaries of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., coordinated bond offerings arranged by Goldman for 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) in 2012 and 2013. The funds diverted from 1MDB were then used for the conspirators' personal benefit and to bribe certain government officials in Malaysia and Abu Dhabi.
In August 2018, Leissner pleaded guilty to criminal charges brought by the Department of Justice in the Eastern District of New York for conspiring to violate the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and to commit money laundering. Ng was indicted in October 2018 on similar charges.

Els tiriyó o Wü Tarëno són un poble indígena que viu al Brasil al Parc Indígena de Tumucumaque, al nord de l'estat brasiler de Pará i a la regió entorn de Kwamalasamutu, al suroccidente de Surinam. El seu idioma pertany a la família lingüística Carib. El 30% són cristians mentre que el 70% mantenen la religió tradicional.

Organització social
Resideixen en les pata, els llogarets, que tenen un líder pataentu, que tria el lloc per a residir i reuneix allí els imoitü  (parents bilaterals), que tenen un tamutupë o director en els rituals, els diàlegs cerimonials i les relacions amb uns altres imoitü. En cada casa del llogaret, el pakoro o cap de llar viu amb la seva esposa, els seus fills solters, les seves filles i els seus gendres. A més, construeixen una casa rodona per a les reunions anomenada esbalaeixen. Totes les cases estan al voltant de anna, una plaça, el centre de la qual és la  toëfa, on es realitzen les danses.

Cosmologia
Al principi hi havia només silenci i foscor. Kuyuri va ser el primer ser que va existir. Simplement va brollar fins i tot sense forma, en l'època ahtao, quan la vida brollava per si mateixa. Ell estava dotat de llum, veu i un fluid fèrtil. Era capaç de crear per va donar de la seva paraula i de la seva llum, veient i fent aparèixer davant de si el que nomenava. No volia estar sol i per això va crear. Per ser home, el primer que va fer va ser la dona.

Economia
La subsistència de la majoria dels tiriyó depèn de l'agricultura, la caça, la pesca i la recol·lecció de productes silvestres. Fins a 1960, tals activitats formaven part d'un sistema de agricultura itinerant que els portava a canviar de lloc de residència cada cinc a deu anys. Posteriorment els llogarets es van fer més sedentàries. El seu principal cultiu ha estat i és la iuca, però, també sembren pinya, moniato, bananer, frijol, canya de sucre i últimament arròs.

Els tiriyó van establir contacte amb grups de cimarrons, fugitius de l'esclavitud que es van assentar a la regió a la fi del segle XVIII, i han mantingut relacions comercials regulars amb un d'ells, els ndjukes. Més recent és la vinculació d'alguns tiriyós a activitats assalariades transitòries o permanents. En l'actualitat s'observa una diferenciació social entre algunes famílies tiriyó amb major accés a les ciutats, la salut, l'educació i el comerç.

Història

Els tiriyó moderns estan formats per diverses comunitats indígenes diferents; alguns d'aquests, com els aramixó, s'esmenten en els escrits europeus ja en 1609-1610. Molts dels grups que ara són tiriyó van viure entre el Brasil i la Guiana francesa fins que van ser expulsat pels oyampi, un grup de tupís aliats amb els portuguesos. Junts, els portuguesos i els oyampis van conduir aquests grups cap a l'oest i es van barrejar amb els grups que hi havia a la zona per formar el modern grup tiriyó.

Com a tals, els tiriyó va establir contacte relativament aviat amb grups esclaus fugitius que es van establir a la zona cap a finals del segle XVIII. Van mantenir relacions comercials regulars amb un grup, els ndjukes, i durant molts anys van ser l'únic contacte que els tiriyó va tenir amb poblacions estrangeres. El primer contacte registrat entre els tiriyó i un europeu van tenir lloc el 1843 entre un poble "Drio" i Robert Schomburgk; això i la trobada entre l'explorador francès Jules Crevaux i uns quants "Trio" van ser els dos únics punts de contacte entre els tiriyó i els europeus al segle XIX. Les expedicions a l'interior de Surinam a principis del segle XX van observar els tiriyós, però van tendir a fugir quan s'hi van apropar i no es va poder obtenir cap informació útil. El 1907, Claudius de Goeje va aconseguir establir contacte a l'expedició Tumuk Humak donant lloc al primer diccionari del tiriyó.

El contacte posterior entre europeus i tiriyó a la primera meitat del segle XX va produir estudis etnogràfics i lingüístics de la regió i, en particular, dels subgrups tiriyó. Després de la "fase exploratòria" del contacte, va arribar la fase "[[[missioner]]a", en què les pistes d'aterratge de nova construcció van facilitar el contacte entre missioners i els tiriyó. Aquestes missions van intentar concentrar la població tiriyó en zones més grans pobles per convertir-los més fàcilment al cristianisme i, amb el pas del temps, s'hi van unir altres grups indígenes com els akuriyó. Fins al 1957, un poble podia allotjar fins a 50 persones. La vida mitjana d'un poble solia ser de tres a sis anys, i la mort d'un capità o cap era sovint un motiu d'abandonament també. Les tècniques agrícoles recentment adquirides van permetre una població més gran. El 1967, el poble d'Alalapadu va superar els 500, i els sòls que envolten el poble van començar a esgotar-se. La vila va ser abandonada, però no completament ja que alguns tiriyó es van establir a les rodalies de l'antic poble. el mateix va passar amb Kwamalasamutu, i el 1997 el Granman Asongo va decidir, que part de la població s'hauria d'estendre, també com a defensa contra la invasió de miners d'or i allotjaments turístics.

Govern
Els tiriyó tenen un alt grau d'independència, perquè els seus assentaments són de difícil accés. No obstant això, els interessa reforçar les relacions amb el món exterior. Tradicionalment no hi havia una jerarquia clara ni un granman (cap suprem).

El 1997, Asongo Alalaparu va ser nomenat granman pel president de Surinam, i els capitans van ser nomenats per gestionar el poble.  El 2011 fou nomenat un comissari de districte per representar al govern central govern a Coeroeni. El 2019 la Comissió de Districte és Trees Cirino.

La vila de Kasuela es troba a la disputada àrea de Tigri que és reclamada tant per Guyana com per Surinam. El poble està dirigit pel capità Kenke Jaimo, reconegut pels dos governs.

Els tiriyó al Brasil vivien al Parc Nacional Muntanyes Tumucumaque que ha estat regonegut des del 1997. El 2004 es va fundar Apitikatxi, l'associació dels pobles indígenes Tiriyó, Kaxuyana i Txikuyana per tal de defensar els seus drets. L'organització està dirigida per Demetrio Amisipa Tiriyó.

Un problema que queda és que hi ha dos sistemes: un govern tribal tradicional i un govern nacional que sovint no són compatibles.  Els tiriyó als pobles més grans estan influïts per l'escola, modern instal·lacions diàries i telecomunicacions. La cultura tradicional desapareix i els joves comencen a traslladar-se a la ciutat.

Drets indígenes
Una preocupació són els drets fonamentals, perquè els tiriyó estan repartits per tres països i, a diferència dels marrons, no hi ha tractats significatius. Les concessions mineres es fan sovint amb el Govern sense consultar la població autòctona. Tot i que el Comissió Interamericana de Drets Humans va dictaminar el 2007 que tots els pobles indígenes i tribals tenen el dret de gestionar, distribuir i controlar efectivament el seu territori, L'article 41 de la Constitució de Surinam estableix: "Els recursos naturals i els recursos són propietat de la nació i s'han de mobilitzar per al desenvolupament econòmic, social i cultural. La nació té el dret irrenunciable de fer-se propietari dels seus recursos naturals per aplicar-los al desenvolupament econòmic, social i cultural de Surinam." També al Brasil, els pobles indígenes sovint es consideren opositors al creixement econòmic i barreres al desenvolupament.

Fund Managers Moves
Aberdeen unveils 'world first' Asian currency short duration bond fund
The asset manager fashions a new fund based in Luxembourg and markets it as a smarter way to play Asian currency appreciation than just piling into the CNH market.
Anthony Michael: targeting CNH bulls
Aberdeen Asset Management has launched what it believes to be the first Asian local currency short-duration bond fund as a more diversified play on regional appreciation than simply piling into Hong Kong's CNH market.
The firm opted to rename and reposition an existing vehicle, rather than close the fund and launch a new one. The result is the Aberdeen Global – Asian Local Currency Short Duration Bond Fund, whose benchmark is the iBoxx – Asia ex-Japan sovereign 1-3 years index.
The fund will invest mostly in sovereign bonds across up to 10 countries in Asia ex-Japan, with an expected initial duration of less than 1.65 years, which Aberdeen notes makes it relatively insulated from current inflation threats.
The asset manager believes the fund will appeal to investors looking for low-risk exposure to the Asian growth story, with participation mainly through long-term currency upside (although it intends to pay dividends).
The fund is based in Luxembourg and managed by Aberdeen's Asian fixed income team in Singapore under Anthony Michael, the firm's head of Asia-Pacific fixed income. It targets both retail and institutional investors.
"People are worried about structural inflation in Asia, so we wanted to give them the opportunity to invest in a product that has a duration of 1.6 to 1.8 years but still be able to get some yield pick-up," says Michael, speaking from a roadshow in Frankfurt to promote the fund.
"This will give investors the ability to move out slightly along the curve to a starting yield of about 3%, but also to have upside from the region's currencies.
"We think Asian currencies are undervalued and have lagged the rally in many currencies. We think the Asian sovereign story and the Asian macro story is the strongest in the global economy, so you bring all those factors together into this portfolio."
Michael says Aberdeen has seen interest for this product from the personal banking sector. "It fits that sort of niche of where we are in the cycle now," he adds. "It provides more flexibility for investors to pick the duration profile they want. That's the most important thing."
But Aberdeen made a conscious decision not to launch a pure CNH product, and accordingly the firm is targeting investors who are now piling into Hong Kong's CNH market.
"We are bullish on the Chinese currency to a certain extent, but we think this is a smarter way to play the Asian currency appreciation story," he states.
"Don't put all your bets on the Chinese currency. Other policymakers in the region are more flexible. Places like Malaysia, Thailand and Singapore have allowed more currency appreciation without the political pressure.
"So why not diversify that bet? And why pay for extremely expensive CNH bonds in the CNH market, where your starting yield is much lower than you can obtain through a broader strategy?"
Asked why Aberdeen had chosen to use an existing fund vehicle rather than start a new one, Michael says there was some product duplication following the firm's acquisition of Credit Suisse's traditional funds business several years ago.
"When we acquired Credit Suisse we had an overlap on our product range. We were going to close a couple of products anyway where there was some duplication in strategy. We could have come out with a new vehicle, but that would have cost us more money and we are achieving the same thing in restructuring this existing portfolio."
Aberdeen went through the regulator in Luxembourg to effect the change, and has liaised with authorities in Hong Kong over the past few months. It is also in the process of adding the product to a select range in Singapore to enable retail investor access there.
Aberdeen started the product with an existing $20 million, enabling it to create the strategy and launch an institutional share class. The firm is keen to raise $100-$150 million over the next six months. "Once we do that we can push in the institutional market more actively," says Michael.
Aberdeen is better known in Asia and globally for its equities capabilities, but has been managing fixed income in the region now for over 10 years, mostly for North American clients.
"We don't have the brand and the distribution capabilities of others, so we are going to start with humble expectations. But this should be a billion dollar product in the next couple of years, easily," adds Michael. "I am very bullish for this product because it makes a lot of sense."
In fact, he was surprised there weren't similar products already available. "We have looked through all the product offerings, but we think this is the first product of its type to be launched in the world. I would not be surprised if people piggy-backed on the back of it."

Q: Create datetime with specific time mySql I'm looking to create a date time field in a MySQL script that has a specific date and time.
I've tried using
CONCAT(DATE_FORMAT(DATE_SUB(NOW(), INTERVAL 9 DAY) ,'%Y%m%d'), ' 13:00:00')
but it doesn't insert correctly.
How can I achieve this so that it will insert a date time with the time as above?
It inserts the record as 0000-00-00 00:00:00 with the above

A: mysql accepts datetime values in yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss format. In your formula you do not separate the year, month, day values, hance the result is not in the date format mysql expects the dates in. Change it to:
CONCAT(DATE_FORMAT(DATE_SUB(NOW(), INTERVAL 9 DAY) ,'%Y-%m-%d'), ' 13:00:00')

But I do not really understand why you need to do the formatting, just use CURDATE() function instead of the NOW():
CONCAT(DATE_SUB(CURDATE(), INTERVAL 9 DAY), ' 13:00:00')
