AN AMERICAN STORY TOLD THROUGH BASKETBALL
Events & TicketsDonate
Ardea Arts is proud to present BOUNCE, which had its development premiere in November 2017 with development partner University of Kentucky Opera Theatre. Performed on an actual basketball court, BOUNCE is grounded in contemporary issues facing today's youth, particularly teen violence. The production, which pairs diverse casting with a fresh approach to arts education, integrates local and high school students into the world of opera and music theater using the powerful medium of basketball.
BOUNCE is an American story told through basketball, a modern take on the Icarus Legend. Centered on Ike "The Flight" Harris, BOUNCE charts the triumphs and tragedies that basketball dreams bring. Ike grows wings, and soon he flies too close to the sun. His wings start to melt, and he crashes into the sea, his dreams crashing with him. Ike struggles to keep going amid ugly rumors while his chief rival soars into the limelight. BOUNCE asks, what does it take to work through trauma and tragedy to rise again, to regain one's full self? The answer lies in the game of basketball itself.
BOUNCE is a groundbreaking new American work that melds genres and defies stereotypes, embracing the full palette of contemporary American music. It tells this story with the hard-hitting sounds of modern hip-hop, R&B, jazz, gospel, and classical vocal technique, melding with the squeak of sneakers across the court, and the percussive beat of the basketball. Performed on an actual basketball court, BOUNCE features local basketball players playing side-by-side with professional actors, singers, rappers, game commentators, and guest artists. BOUNCE also rocks the rim with extraordinary community engagement programs to attract diverse, new audiences of all ages.
BOUNCE addresses issues of teen violence, the school-to-prison pipeline, the accountability of one's actions, as well as the importance of education. BOUNCE also celebrates our love of basketball, the opportunities it brings, and how basketball itself saves and transforms lives. Our goal is to bring this unique American story to communities across the nation.

Time Out / Read Full Article
BOUNCE seeks to offer community engagement workshops in a collaborative effort to help introduce and expose young people to theater and music through the game of basketball. The workshops allow youth to learn basketball dribbling fundamentals, gain basic theater and music knowledge, combine the two elements of art and sport to express their creativity and, most importantly, to gain the chance to better understand the complexities of growing up in today's world.
In anticipation of the November premiere, BOUNCE partnered with Lexington, KY area organizations and schools to offer community engagement workshops led by BOUNCE cast members—the Basketball Ensemble team.
At Crawford Middle School, for example, BOUNCE was asked to address gun violence and conflict resolution, as the week prior there were two separate instances where students brought guns to school. The team was able to discuss the friction between the two main characters, "Future" and "Flight," and ultimately share the consequences of Future's poor and rushed judgement. This was followed up by further discussing the impact gun violence can have on the lives of the shooter, the victims, and their families, themes inherent to BOUNCE.
Finally, the workshop ended on a positive note by teaching conflict resolution by allowing the students and cast to get to know one another through a hip-hop cypher. This allows kids to share their talents and express themselves through spoken word, dance, dribbling and/or singing, helping them see that they have an entire gym of students, faculty and staff, and strangers working with them, and rooting for them!
EAST FLATBUSH, BROOKLYN, NY
Ardea Arts presented Showcase Performances of BOUNCE at Paerdegat Park in East Flatbush, Brooklyn in June 2016.
Pairing diverse casting with a fresh approach to arts engagement, local high school students, ranging from Business of Sports School (BOSS) in Manhattan to EBC High School for Public Service in Bushwick, Brooklyn, worked alongside seasoned professionals and integrated into the production using the powerful medium of basketball. They became the basketball players, the cheerleaders, and Flight's classmates and teammates. Local and national community leaders, including figures such as Officer Robert Thybulle of the NYPD, and Jumaane Williams of the New York City Council and recent NY State Lieutenant Governor candidate, also played a number of the adult roles.
KAISER PARK, BROOKLYN, NY
Ardea Arts, in partnership with the City Parks Foundation presented Bounce: The Basketball Performance Event for children age 10 – 18 and their families, at Kaiser Park in Coney Island, Brooklyn on Sunday, September 14, 2014. Kids enjoyed a ball handling workshop, a performance of words and music by noted performers, and got the chance to be filmed showing off their basketball skills and expressing their creativity.

Bitcoin has many uses on a daily basis and in this article we will cover the three main reasons you should buy bitcoin in Nigeria, via the leading exchange NairaEx !
The age old debate of whether you should hold your assets in US dollars or the Naira, but the bitcoin could benefit you compared to both. The volatility of the Naira being connected closely to the value of oil and the restriction in foreign exchange placed by the CNB may make these volatile long term holds of value. Bitcoin has had a reputation for long term stability particularly over the past year where it has rarely dipped below the $300 mark and currently sits at a handsome $600 price range. Not only can you cash in on bitcoins price swings but can also stay assured the value will remain above certain levels as with no government affiliation and complete decentralization the market is free to go wherever it wants !
From its very humble beginnings Bitcoin has propelled in value over a thousand times. Starting of at a fraction of a cent the currency was initially mined by computers but after the advent of ASIC technology home mining has pretty much ceased to be a profitable activity when factoring costs in. This has in turn increased the number of people using exchanges such as NairaEX for their bitcoin needs, as creating bitcoin not only takes weeks and weeks at current mining conditions, it also has a reputation for stretching computers to their maximum potential (in some cases lowering life expectancy).
Bitcoin Prices Destroy Predicted $10k Mark, Bubble Fears Quashed ?

Q: Warn when using parameter marked as __unused Using the -Wunused-parameter flag, you can enforce __unused for unused parameters, as a compiler optimization. The following code causes two warnings:
#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
  printf("hello world\n");
  return 0;
}

These warnings are fixed by adding __unused the unused arguments.
#include <stdio.h>
int main(int __unused argc, char __unused **argv) {
  printf("hello world\n");
  return 0;
}

When you use a parameter marked __unused, clang 4.1 does not warn or error.
#include <stdio.h>
int main(int __unused argc, char __unused **argv) {
  printf("hello world. there are %d args\n", argc);
  return 0;
}

The same behavior is exhibited using __attribute__((unused)).
int main(int __attribute__((unused)) argc, char __attribute__((unused)) **argv) {

Is there a way to warn or error on __unused? What would happen should you accidentally leave an __unused on a used parameter? In the above example argc appears to have the correct value, although it could be the compiler not taking advantage of the hint, and I wouldn't rely on this behavior without more understanding.

A: Another way to skin this cat is to remove (or comment out) the name of the parameter.
int main ( int argc, char ** /* argv */ ) {
    printf("hello world. there are %d args\n", argc);
    return 0;
}

Now the compiler won't warn about argv being unused, and you can't use it, because it has no name.

A: You can use deprecated and unused together to achieve the desired behavior (thanks to Dietrich Epp for mentioning deprecated in his comment):
#define is_unused __attribute__((deprecated, unused))

When the entity is actually unused, this will silence the warning. When an entity is flagged with this macro but still used, you'll get a deprecation warning.

A: The __unused attribute is intended to prevent complaints when arguments to functions/methods or functions/methods are unused, not to enforce their lack of use.
The term used in the GCC manual is:

This attribute, attached to a function, means that the function is meant to be possibly unused

And for variables:

This attribute, attached to a variable, means that the variable is meant to be possibly unused.

The most common use is for development against an interface - e.g. callbacks, where you may be forced to accept several parameters but don't make use of all of them.
I use it a bit when I'm doing test driven development - my initial routine takes some parameters and does nothing, so all the parameters take __attribute__((unused)). As I develop it I make use of the parameters. At the end of development I remove them from the method, and see what shakes out.

Mango salad is one of my favourite dishes to make, as it is relatively easy and tastes so damn good. It is super fresh and full of flavour with a good balance of sweet, sour, tangy and salty. I love the crunch of the crispy fried shallots and white onion, alongside the soft and tangy mango, the freshness of the mint, rich, toasted sesame seeds and the chilli, garlic and fish sauce dressing.
This recipe is one I also learnt to make at Ms Vy's Morning Glory cookery school in Hoi An, Vietnam. I have made it a few times since being back in England, as it is quick and easy, and luckily, we seem to be able to buy mangoes here all year round.
We were shown how to peel and cut the mango using a Vietnamese peeler, which has a large gap between the blades for peeling vegetables and fruits with tough skins. I immediately decided I was going to buy one after the class. Much to my excitement, we were given one as a gift at the end, and I carried it in my bag all the way back to England.
We were told to use unripe mangoes so the salad isn't too sweet. They are also easier to peel and give a good texture to the dish. I like to mix one unripe, and one almost ripe to give a variety of texture and flavour.
I use white onion in this recipe as well, as it seems less harsh than other onions and goes well with the mango.
This salad goes well with grilled chicken or fish, rice, and dark green leafy vegetables. One evening I made a delicious dinner for friends with caramelised eggplant, stir fried morning-glory with garlic, steamed white rice, and this mango salad. It was so good, with a perfect balance of sweet, sour, salty and bitter, and the textures went so well together. At the cookery school we ate the salad with marinated barbecued chicken thighs, morning-glory, and steamed rice.
Tonight I served my salad alongside caramelised eggplant, and some free range chicken curry sausages I picked up from Brighton Sausage Company yesterday. It was very tasty, and I am very glad I have left over salad for lunch tomorrow.
Using the Vietnamese peeler (or a sharp knife) slice the mango the whole way round and you will end up with lovely mango slices.
Add to a bowl the mango slices, white onion, toasted sesame seeds and mint.

The essential things are the momentary and the intention of presenting.
Her conceptual artworks are presented with the aim not to provide an idealistic view but to identify where light and the environment are important. The energy of a place and its emotional and spiritual vibrations are always important. By using popular themes such as sexuality, family structure and violence, she touches various overlapping themes and strategies. Several reoccurring subject matter can be recognised, such as the relation with popular culture and media, working with repetition, provocation and the investigation of the process of expectations.
Her works feature coincidental, accidental and unexpected connections which make it possible to revise art history and, even better, to complement it. Combining unrelated aspects lead to surprising analogies. By replaying the work for each exhibition and pushing the evocative power of the work a little further, she formalizes the coincidental and emphasizes the conscious process of composition that is behind the seemingly random works. The thought processes, which are supposedly private, highly subjective and unfiltered in their references to dream worlds, are frequently revealed as assemblages.
Her works often refers to pop and mass culture. Using written and drawn symbols, a world where light-heartedness rules and where rules are undermined is created. Igraine Cosette currently lives and works in Irontown.


/ Uncategorized / Could that arm pain be tennis elbow?
Tennis elbow can serve up some powerful pain. And while tennis players are the most likely people to suffer this injury, anyone can, because it is the result of repetitive stress to your arm, forearm, wrist and hand. Tennis elbow also occurs in every age group but is more likely to occur among people in their 30s and 40s.
It's a medical condition known as lateral epicondylitis. It results when overuse and repetitive stress causes inflammation and tiny tears in the forearm tendons.
How can you tell if you have tennis elbow?
Upper forearm pain or on the outer edge of the elbow that won't go away.
Forearm pain that comes on suddenly, but not until perhaps three or four days after the activity that cause it.
Pain that increases with activity—commonly occurs if you raise or bend your arms, when you try to lift something, or when turning your forearm to open a door. Tennis elbow can cause serious pain when trying to lift something as light as a spoon or when giving a handshake.
Difficulty gripping objects—even light, everyday objects cause pain or cause you to lose your grip.
Pain that decreases with rest. If rest does not bring relief, contact a doctor.
Resting the elbow and forearm. If the injury occurred as the result of a sporting activity, try changing sports or exercise methods for a while. If it is a work injury, ask your boss if you can perform other tasks while your elbow heals.
Use your arm without overusing it. Learn to use your shoulder and upper arm muscles to take some of the strain off your elbow and try not to bend or straighten your arm all the way.
Over-the-counter pain relievers—choose anti-inflammatories like Ibuprofen or naproxen.
Ice to reduce swelling and pain. Put it on for about fifteen minutes several times a day until you get relief.
Braces or splints to take the pressure off the tendons in your elbow.
Physical therapy to gradually stretch and strengthen your muscles and improve blood flow, which promotes healing.
Injections of medication, Botox, or platelet-rich plasma have proven to be helpful in treating tennis elbow.
Surgery if your symptoms don't improve. As a last resort, we may need to surgically remove damaged tissue in order for your arm to heal.
If you're concerned that you may have tennis elbow, call Coastal Orthopedics at 941-792-1404 or request an appointment here. We'll get you back in the swing of things as soon as possible.

Vitamin K may reduce cancer risk: EPIC study
By Stephen Daniells

Consuming foods rich in vitamin K2 may reduce the risk of cancer, says a new study supporting the potential anti-cancer benefits of this emerging nutrient.
Results from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) study found that the highest intakes of vitamin K2, but not vitamin K1, were associated with a reduced risk of both overall cancer and cancer mortality, with the latter reduced by about 30 per cent.
There are two main forms of vitamin K: phylloquinone, also known as phytonadione, (vitamin K1) and menaquinones (vitamins K2). K1 is found in green leafy vegetables such as lettuce, broccoli and spinach, and makes up about 90 per cent of the vitamin K in a typical Western diet; while K2, which makes up about 10 per cent of Western vitamin K consumption and can be synthesised in the gut by microflora.
There are various forms of menaquinones, and these can also be found in the diet: Menaquinone-4, for example, can be found in animal meat, while menaquinones-7, -8, and-9 are found in fermented food products like cheese, and natto is a rich source of menaquinone-7.
Maintaining intakes
The new study, published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, appear to support the anti-cancer benefits of vitamin K2, with the majority of the nutrient being consumed from cheese.
The study adds to an ever-growing body of science supporting the benefits of vitamin K2, most well established for bone and cardiovascular health. Emerging evidence also supports a potential role for reducing the risk of prostate cancer.
Interestingly, Joyce McCann, PhD, and Bruce Ames, PhD, from the Children's Hospital Oakland Research Institute reported last year that current recommendations for vitamin K are not being met, placing people at increased risk of age-related diseases such as cancer and heart disease.
Current recommendations are based on levels to ensure adequate blood coagulation, but failing to ensure long-term optimal levels of the vitamin may accelerate bone fragility, arterial and kidney calcification, cardiovascular disease, and possibly cancer, wrote the researchers in the October 2009 issue of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.
New data
The new study, led by Jakob Linseisen from the German Research Centre for Environmental Health, analysed data from 24,340 participants aged between 35 and 64 participating in the EPIC-Heidelberg cohort study.
The participants were following for over 10 years, during which 1,755 cases of cancer were documented. Of these 458 turned out to be fatal cases. Results showed that people with the highest average intakes of vitamin K2 were 14 per cent less likely to develop cancer, compared to people with the lowest average intakes.
Furthermore, a 28 per cent reduction in cancer mortality was observed for people with the highest average intakes.
Dr Linseisen and his co-workers also report that significant associations with prostate cancer, as observed in previous studies, meant that the cancer risk reduction was more pronounced in men.

How to Invest in Pre-IPOs & How They Work
By Judd Hollas | September 10, 2021
What are Pre-IPOs?
What is Pre-IPO Investing?
Why Invest in Pre-IPOs?
Advantage of Investing in Pre-IPOs
Associated Risks in Investing in Pre-IPOs
How to Invest in Pre-IPO Stocks
Tips to Keep In Mind When Investing in Pre-IPOs
"Getting in on the ground floor" is the dream of just about every investor who has heard of the fortunes amassed by early investors in Apple and Amazon. Because of that, the average retail investor shows a keen interest in Initial Public Offerings (IPOs).
However, one step ahead of them are those who invest in pre-IPOs. Often, companies issuing pre-IPO stock never make it to the IPO stage, and those investors who bought pre-IPO shares of those companies don't realize the return they had hoped for.
Still, there can be pronounced financial benefits, such as exponential returns on their investment, that pre-IPO investors can realize. This article will touch on those benefits, how investors can access a pre-IPO, and what to keep in mind when investing in a pre-IPO to avoid potential pitfalls.
Let's start at the beginning and define the pre-IPO.
When a privately owned company takes the big step to become a publicly owned company (also known as "going public"), there is an initial public offering (IPO) of stock available to institutional and retail investors.
However, even before going public, many companies offer large blocks of shares of their stock to institutions and individuals through what is known as a pre-IPO. This is one method private companies employ to raise capital to grow their business and eventually trade publicly.
Pre-IPO investing is an activity that a select few can participate in. Financial institutions and investors identified by a company to have ample liquidity to purchase shares before their IPO can be fortunate enough to be offered pre-IPO shares as an investment vehicle. Shares can be bought by individuals who have met strict criteria concerning their experience and net worth (accredited investors) and institutions or hedge funds.
Most investors participate in a pre-IPO for three primary reasons:
They can buy shares at a price that is usually substantially lower than the IPO price per share on the first day the stock is offered to other investors.
There is the potential for exponential returns if shares are bought in the right company with the right product or service at the right time.
It's an opportunity for the investor to build long-term wealth.
Like any investment, there is the potential for financial gain, as well as the risk of losing some or all of the capital invested. Let's look at both.
The advantage of investing in pre-IPOs is getting in front of the crowd of other investors before a promising company launches an IPO and goes public, and entering at a very advantageous price per share.
One of the most commonly cited examples of successful pre-IPO investing is venture capitalist Ozi Amanat, who profited over $17 million in one day after investing in Alibaba's pre-IPO. He purchased his shares at $60 each and watched as the stock closed near $90 per share on the first day of public trading, earning him a 50% return on his investment—Alibaba's all-time high stock closing price: $317 in October of 2020.
Amanat's significant advantage was buying the stock at the discounted price of $60 per share. He had the foresight to invest in a company with tremendous potential, and he was rewarded for spending $35 million for his pre-IPO shares.
Like any investment in the capital markets, the most significant risk associated with pre-IPO investing is the lack of a guarantee that the stock will perform as well as expected.
Another risk investors face in pre-IPO investing is the possibility that the company they're investing in may never go public. Many IPOs have been stopped in mid-stream or have been canceled for a variety of reasons.
And, there's always the risk for investors of not having enough information to make a qualified decision on whether or not to participate in the pre-IPO. Though publicly traded companies must, by law, disclose financial information to shareholders, private companies do not share those requirements.
It's one thing to understand a pre-IPO; it's quite another to know how to have the opportunity to participate. There are three primary ways to get involved with a pre-IPO investment opportunity.
Use a broker. Brokers and financial advisors can sometimes open doors for you to gain entry into a pre-IPO trade. They may know of companies in the early stages of growth-seeking buyers of their pre-IPO stock.
Buy directly from the company. Angel investors and venture capitalists often provide funding for early-stage financing by purchasing pre-IPO stock offered directly by the company issuing the stock. Though these companies may never reach the stage where they go public, the potential for substantial gains is often there.
Buy shares indirectly. This can be accomplished through publicly held venture capital firms with pre-IPOs in their portfolio or through private equity exchange-traded mutual funds that purchase a wide variety of pre-IPO shares.
Do your research. Though it's more difficult to gather empirical data on private companies, you can still explore the market demand for the company's product or service, how realistic their projected rate of growth is, who their competitors are and what their market shares are, the price of the pre-IPO shares and the consensus on what the IPO price will be set at.
Be patient. It can take months, sometimes years, for a company that has sold pre-IPO stock to finally go public. If you see the potential in a company and are confident that the loss in the time value of money will be worth it, invest and exercise patience.
Be realistic. Investors in pre-IPOs and IPOs often expect the company they've invested in to be the next Apple or Microsoft. It may be, but there are very few trillion-dollar companies and rags-to-riches stories out there.
Scrutinize legal documentation. Pre-IPOs are complex and challenging for the average investor to fully understand. It may very well mean investing some of your time and money reviewing documents with an attorney who understands pre-IPOs and the legalities involved. Their knowledge and advice might make the difference between moving forward with your investment or not.
Learn the guidelines. Talk with your broker or investment advisor and do your homework on what makes a pre-IPO worthy of consideration and the investment of your capital. Don't just rely on luck to be successful as a pre-IPO investor; know the rules and increase your chances for success.

Here's why football's best goalkeepers are worried about the World Cup 2018 match ball
This debate will rage on throughout the tournament
By Tom Victor
Every single World Cup, it feels as though debate over the official match ball takes up almost as many column inches as the games themselves.
Whether or not the ball is good or bad tends to be beside the point a lot of the time – goalkeepers will be used to playing with one ball throughout their regular season, only to be greeted with one which behaves differently and takes some adjusting to.
It's not just keepers who it affects, of course; the Jabulani, used at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, was accused of being too round to the point that it affected the flight of the ball for free-kicks – until folks got used to it later in the tournament.
However, with Saudi Arabia conceding five goals in their opening game against Russia, and with goalkeeper Abdullah Al-Mayouf looking shaky for one or two of them, it's only fair we revisit what some of the keepers at the tournament have been saying about the new ball, the adidas Telstar 18.
FIFA know better than to throw the ball at the world's finest with no preparation, at the very least.
It made its first appearance in a series of international friendlies earlier in the season, earning it a mixed reception from some of the stoppers who had to deal with it for the first time.
"The ball could be better; it moves a lot," said Germany and Barcelona goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen after a 1-1 draw with Spain in March.
Thankfully for him, he might not have to adjust, with Manuel Neuer in line to replace him in the starting line-up after returning from injury.
Ter Stegen's opposite number that day, David de Gea, echoed the Barça man's concerns in an interview with AS.
"It could have been made better," the Manchester United keeper argued, presumably revealing a previously unannounced knowledge of design and technology.
Pepe Reina, meanwhile, suggested back in March that there was "still time to change" the ball before the start of the tournament, and predicted we'd see a lot of goals from range as keepers struggle to hold on to the ball.
Indeed, Al-Mayouf was beaten from range against Russia, including a late free-kick from Alexandr Golovin which some claimed he should have done better with.
As the tournament goes on, we'll likely see the ball come under scrutiny every time a goalkeeper gets beaten from range.
Maybe, though, they've just made a mistake.

To the cheers of Utah politicians and dismay of environmental and tribal groups, President Donald Trump swept into Utah on Monday and erased most of Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante National monuments — shaving 2 million acres from their boundaries and replacing them with five smaller monuments.
The historic move was swiftly met with a lawsuit filed by a coalition of conservation organizations and threats of another from American Indian groups, as opponents claimed the reductions are illegal and denounced them as potentially opening pristine lands to development. Protesters along Trump's route and in downtown Salt Lake City shouted and waved signs opposing his changes, and for a time halted traffic.
Trump also used the three-hour visit, his first to Utah since becoming president, to tour Welfare Square, meet with leaders of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, promise to protect religious freedom — and urge Utah Republican Sen. Orrin Hatch to seek another term, which might prevent a run by Trump critic Mitt Romney, a two-time presidential candidate.
But mostly, as Trump told supporters at the state Capitol, "I've come to Utah to take a very historic action, to reverse federal overreach and restore the rights of this land to your citizens."
At the invitation-only Capitol Rotunda ceremony, he signed a proclamation to shrink Bears Ears, created last year by President Barack Obama, from 1.35 million acres to 201,876. The remnants were placed into two new monuments: Shash Jaa (Navajo for Bears Ears) at 129,980 acres and Indian Creek at 71,896 acres.
He signed a second proclamation to reduce Grand Staircase-Escalante — created in 1996 by President Bill Clinton — from 1.9 million acres to 1 million. It was replaced by three monuments: Grand Staircase at 209,933 acres; Kaiparowits at 552,034; and Escalante Canyon at 242,836. The protected areas are still larger than Rhode Island.
"Past administrations have severely abused the purpose, spirit and intent of the century-old law known as the Antiquities Act," Trump said, referring to the law used by Clinton and Obama to create the monuments.
He said presidents are supposed to set aside in monuments only the smallest area necessary to protect important resources. Instead, he said, previous administrations put millions of acres into the monuments.
"Some people think that the natural resources of Utah should be controlled by a small handful of very distant bureaucrats located in Washington. And guess what? They're wrong," Trump said to cheers.
"The families and communities of Utah know and love this land the best, and you know the best how to take care of your land," he said.
Trump said the "abuses of the Antiquities Act have not just threatened your local economies; they've threatened your very way of life" by limiting access to public lands.
Now, he said, "Public land will once again be for public use."
Before the ceremony, Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke told The Salt Lake Tribune: "The president is delivering on his campaign promise to give the state and local communities a voice, which I think is absolutely important. Public lands are for public use and not for special interests."
Trump's order specifically authorizes grazing in the Bears Ears area as well as motorized recreation and American Indian gathering of wood and herbs, and it asks Congress to pass legislation to mandate co-management by tribal leaders.
Zinke was ordered by Trump to review all monument designations back to 1996 and recommend changes to six monuments. While Trump's action was decried by environmentalists and tribal leaders as the largest withdrawal of land protections in U.S. history, Zinke said the move was needed to fix the "two cases of abuse" of the Antiquities Act.
None of the land removed from the former monuments will be sold or transferred, Zinke said; it will return to its previous status, as land managed by the Bureau of Land Management, wilderness or as a national forest. Congress should consider what additional designations make sense, he added, including the possibility of a national park in the region.
"There's not one square inch of federal land that doesn't remain under federal control," Zinke said. "There's not one square inch of an antiquity that loses protection."
However, for example, coal deposits in much of the Kaiparowits Plateau could be tapped. Clinton originally created the Grand Staircase-Escalante monument largely to prevent that.
Raising the possibility of drilling and mining inside that monument's former boundaries, 10 environmental groups filed a federal lawsuit in Washington, D.C., alleging the Antiquities Act does not allow presidents to diminish or rescind monument designations by their predecessors.
The groups, including the Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance, said they aim to defend the former monument's unique fossil record, its biodiversity and the landscape that has drawn tourists and invigorated southern Utah's economy.
"The Trump administration has ignored overwhelming support for the monument. It's a punch in the face to local businesses who support it, and all of us who treasure it," said Shelley Silbert, executive director of Great Old Broads for Wilderness.
Other groups also are expected to file lawsuits, including the five tribes who pushed for monument status for Bears Ears — Hopi, Navajo Nation, Ute Mountain Ute Tribe, Pueblo of Zuni and the Ute Indian Tribe.
Brian Sybert, executive director of the Conservation Lands Foundation, said the group plans to sue to stop Trump's reductions.
"This is nothing more than political score settling from an administration that doesn't seem to comprehend the extraordinary value these lands hold for Native American communities and all Americans," Sybert said. "Make no mistake: the near elimination of these national treasures is beyond belief. These lands belong to the people, not corporate polluters."

Zinke said the administration is on firm legal footing to change the boundaries, noting other monuments have been changed 10 times in the past.
"We were very careful to identify the antiquities and make sure that we followed the Antiquities Act," Zinke said. "...It is clear in our judgment that the president has the authority. We didn't do this in an arbitrary fashion."
He also said he's not concerned about a large increase in oil and gas exploration or coal mining.
"I've heard this argument about Bears Ears' oil and gas; that's a nefarious argument," he said. "There are no oil and gas resources that anyone has reported in Bears Ears. It really is about multiple use and multiple use is grazing, timber management, recreation, being able to use in some places four-wheel drives."
Rep. Rob Bishop, R-Utah, said he believes the president's action is legal — but is also "just the beginning."
Bishop said, "The hard part starts now. It was easy to come to where we are today. Now we are going to have to up our game and put into statute the protections we are talking about today. It's not that easy."
San Juan County Commissioner Phil Lyman, convicted of leading a 2014 protest ride in Recapture Canyon, cheered Trump's shrinkage of Bears Ears in his county, but also said he saw it as "a first down."
Lyman added: "We're looking for a touchdown. We need the Antiquities Act reined in so that we don't just become a football punched back and forth in the monument debate. We'd like to see Congress act so we have certainty about the future."
Bishop has filed a bill that would curtail a president's power under the Antiquities Act, but so far has been unsuccessful in moving it forward.

The Mystery Play Cycles were performed in several English towns for the Feast of Corpus Christi, which occurs eleven days after Pentecost in the liturgical calendar (in May or June). In the late Middle Ages this feast was enormously popular with the laity. The play cycles, performed annually on this date, aimed to dramatise salvation history from its beginning, Creation, to its ending, Judgement Day.
Each play belonged to a particular trade guild whose responsibility it would be to stage the performance each year. The Nativity plays which we will be reading belong in York to the Tilethatchers, in Coventry to the Shearmen and Tailors and in Chester to the Wrights.

Q: The type xx cannot be used as type parameter I use the following in my program.cs for my ASP.NET Mvc web
var emailConfig = builder.Configuration
    .GetSection("Email")
    .Get<EmailConfig>();
builder.Services.AddSingleton(emailConfig);
builder.Services.AddTransient<IEmailService, EmailService>();

The site run as it should but I get a warning in visual studio on AddSingleton line telling me

"Severity Code    Description Project File    Line    Suppression State
Warning   CS8634  The type 'Common.Models.EmailConfig?' cannot be used as
type parameter 'TService' in the generic type or method

doesn't match 'class'
constraint.   WebbSite    D:\Test\1\WebbSite\Program.cs   62  Active "

I dont understand the problem, can someone explain and tell me what I need to do?

A: ConfigurationBinder.Get returns T? since .NET 7 (compare with .NET 6 version) so if T is reference type it becomes a nullable reference type (also see this article) so in nullable aware context static flow analysis that determines if a variable may be null before dereferencing produces the aforementioned warning. This warning can be removed by adding null check (or null-forgiving operator):
var emailConfig = builder.Configuration
    .GetSection("Email")
    .Get<EmailConfig>();
if(emailConfig == null)
{
    throw new Exception("Email configuration is missing");
}
builder.Services.AddSingleton(emailConfig);


Moving to Oakland to be near family or looking for an affordable spot to live that's commuting distance from San Francisco? You might be slack-jawed by all the reports about the Bay Area's real estate market, with skyrocketing prices and low availability, but rest assured: there are still affordable neighborhoods available, and some of the best are located in Oakland.
The eclectic Jack London Square neighborhood on the west side of Oakland was originally developed to be an entertainment district and waterfront tourist attraction. It has since grown into a trendy neighborhood with 1950s-themed coffee shops, historic warehouses, and quirky bars. Although the median home price is in the high $500s, it's still a relatively affordable neighborhood where buyers can find one-bedroom condos priced in the high $300s. Residents also enjoy easy access to Downtown Oakland, Downtown San Francisco, and the Oakland International Airport. With a convenient waterfront location, homeowners can also take ferries from the square straight to Pier 39, Fisherman's Wharf, and more.
Located in the East 14th Street Business District, South Stonehurst is a prime destination for commuters. It's situated between Interstates 580 and 880, giving residents easy access to other job hubs in the Bay Area. Residents also like the convenient grid system, which gives the neighborhood a city-like atmosphere. Home prices in this neighborhood start in the high $300s and feature small single-family residences with two or three bedrooms. Those who want to avoid suburban life and instead opt for city living will find their place in this urban setting.
NoBe is an up-and-coming area of Oakland, which encompasses the neighborhoods of North Oakland, South Berkeley, and East Emeryville. NoBe offers a distinct mix of gourmet restaurants, exciting nightlife, and family-friendly attractions. It's also highly walkable, thanks to its central location. The area has seen an increase in real estate prices recently and offers a mix of historic bungalows to modern custom single-family homes, but the neighborhood is still more affordable than the buzzier parts of Oakland. Buyers can find condos, lofts, or detached homes priced starting in the mid $300s.
For many interested homebuyers, this neighborhood is a haven in a sea of expensive Bay Area housing. The majority of home styles in Oak Tree are single-family residences that offer two to three bedrooms and one to two bathrooms. Buyers looking for a small home or a fixer-upper may find residences priced in the low $400s. Due to Oak Tree's close proximity to the bay and Alameda Island, its central location makes it an attractive option not only for homebuyers on a budget but for commuters as well.
As one of the most historic in the city, this neighborhood is now an up-and-coming area attracting an influx of new residents. People are moving to Jefferson for its post-World War II charm, excellent school district, and affordable real estate prices. With condos and single-family homes priced starting in the low $500s, homebuyers may find a few options to suit their lifestyle and budget. Located within the Fruitvale district, Jefferson is also situated close to job hubs, which commuters will find convenient.
This Fruitvale district neighborhood is perhaps the most affordable in all of Oakland. Homebuyers can find a variety of traditional or Craftsman-style homes priced in the high $400s. With plenty of schools and parks in the vicinity, Harrington is an ideal spot for families looking for these types of kid-friendly amenities in their community. The area is also very residential, so homeowners who want a quiet neighborhood to call home will likely feel comfortable in Harrington.
Buyers looking to live in Oakland on a budget will likely find a great home in Eastmont where single-family homes are priced starting in the low $400s. Homebuyers will also love that this diverse neighborhood is located close to outdoor attractions like the Leona Canyon Regional Open Space Reserve and the Oakland Zoo. Eastmont is also conveniently located near Interstate 580, making it easy for commuters who need to get to work or school quickly.

But those studies came before the European Space Agency's Rosetta mission, which orbited comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko from 2014 to 2016. Rosetta showed that the comet was about 25 percent organic matter by weight, much more than scientists had assumed. It also contained radioactive elements such as potassium, which decays into argon — another element found in Titan's atmosphere.
Titan's thick atmosphere — plus a subsurface ocean, a hydrologic system of hydrocarbon lakes, rivers and rain, and a veneer of organic compounds and other life-friendly molecules — make the moon a popular target in the search for alien life.

Former Terrorist Finds New Life in Christ
Posted on April 25, 2015 April 25, 2015 by Marty Schoenleber, Jr.
I love a good story of redemption and the one below is just that. It is from Kairos Journal and should give joy to everyone who knows and loves the gospel of Jesus Christ. But it should also give hope that no matter what is going wrong around you, or in your family, or in your state, or your country, God's power to change hearts and destinies is still unrestrained. Enjoy the story of David Hamilton, terrorist turned follower of the Living God.
David Hamilton: Freed from Hatred1
The convicted terrorist David Hamilton had known for some time that this moment must come. Now he did not even struggle as the dark-clothed man held him under water in the bathtub of Belfast's notorious Crumlin Road jail. He was sure that he did not deserve what was happening to him at this moment. He had done many terrible things in the course of his career as a terrorist, yet here he was being baptised, welcomed into God's family as if he had never sinned.
Hamilton grew up in Northern Ireland at the beginning of the "Troubles":2 that period between 1968 and 1993 characterised by warfare on the streets of Northern Ireland and England. The conflict has roots going back many centuries, but its essence is found in the sectarian tensions between Catholic groups wanting an independent and United Ireland (also called Republicans), and Protestants loyal to the English Crown (known as Loyalists). The largest and most significant "Republican" terrorist organisation was the provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA), and the corresponding "Loyalist" organisations were the Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF) and the Ulster Defence Association.
Hamilton's family lived in the fiercely sectarian Rathcoole estate on the outskirts of Belfast. By his early teens he was part of a gang devoted to petty acts of violence and public disorder against Catholic targets. He progressed to membership of local paramilitary groups, frequently committing acts of violence and regularly carrying illegal firearms. Eventually he joined the terrorist UVF.
From that point on, he was committed to a life of bombings, beatings, and to the planning and execution of armed raids on post offices and banks in Belfast. He was eventually caught and tried. At his sentencing, his own barrister told him that he was lucky only to receive 11 years in prison. Lucky or not, prison was not a pleasant experience. His wife left him, and her new boyfriend beat up his three-year-old son. However, it was in prison that David Hamilton found forgiveness and new life through the gospel.
Convinced that God wanted him to become a Christian, he began to read a Gideon Bible in his cell (a turn around in itself, as formerly he would use the pages as cigarette papers). After some discussion with a fellow prisoner, he went to his cell one lunchtime and prayed for a new life with Jesus Christ as Lord.
His prayer was answered. He became living proof of the gospel's power to change men's hearts. On one occasion he led an IRA man to Christ, in his cell. Formerly he would never even have looked at such a man, let alone allowed him in his cell; now he sat and prayed with him. Since his release he has frequently shared a public platform with former IRA men, in order to preach the gospel.
More blood than ink has been spilled in the cause of finding a solution to Northern Ireland's "Troubles." While political solutions have produced a partial end to the violence, politics cannot change men's hearts. The only thing able to bring peace at that level, between the warring factions, is the gospel of Jesus Christ. David Hamilton is a living example of the gospel's power to unite enemies. Even the entrenched and intense hatred that has characterised the relationship between different communities in Northern Ireland has proved impotent to resist the uniting power of the gospel in his and many other lives. Natural enemies becoming brothers who love each other is a powerful sign of the Church's glory.
