Today on Sydney's famous Bondi Beach, located in Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull's Wentworth electorate, at least 2000 protesters spelled out the words 'Stop Adani'.
"People really are against this coal mine. We need to send a message to Malcolm Turnbull that funding a giant coal mine in Queensland just makes no sense," said organiser Blair Palese the CEO of lobby group 350南京楼凤,.
"It's not time for more coal, it's time for the solutions to climate change."
Stephen Lightfoot and his partner Elizabeth Hess brought their two young sons to the beach protest.
The told SBS World News that they feared for the future of the region if the coal mine is built.
"We really don't want taxpayer money going to a mine that is putting our Great Barrier Reef at risk, we really don't want it," Mr Lightfoot said.
"I think anything you can do might help to stop this, so at least we're trying to do something," Ms Hess said.
45 protests in 'national day of action'
Meanwhile hundreds of demonstrators gathered outside Parliament House in Canberra to voice their opposition to the Carmichael mine as dozens of similar rallies took place across Australia on Saturday.
Major rallies also took place at Newtown, Brisbane, Port Douglas and Carlton North.
"The mine is just going to ruin everything, the water, the reef, the farming land, and also we're lending them $1 billion and I cannot believe we can't spend that money on jobs in other areas like renewables," Michele Smith told AAP in Canberra.
Fellow protester Kathy Kituai said she was sceptical about what the state and federal governments stand to gain from the "insane" project, while Lois McRae is worried about the irreversible damage it may cause.
"It is ludicrous to propose this mine and it has got to be abandoned," Ms McRae told AAP.
Those who gathered in Canberra waved placards and chanted slogans before heading off on a march, while people in other locations created human "Stop Adani" signs.
Scores of red-clad protesters also turned out at Brisbane's Crosby Park on Saturday afternoon to create a human sign spelling out "Stop Adani" as part of a National Day of Action.
Jeff Hansen national director of Sea Shepherd Australia said his organisation was typically known for defending whale populations' feeding grounds in the Antarctic.
"However, they face an even bigger threat in the form of the Adani coal mine," he said.
He said "huge numbers" of coal ships would move through the Great Barrier Reef if the mine goes ahead, posing a serious threat to the whales' birthing grounds.
"Not to mention the burning of fossil fuels is having a catastrophic impact on Antarctica and the krill numbers, the whales' food," he added.
The national rallies come as new polling shows more than half of Australians oppose the central Queensland mine.
Two-thirds of people also believe the Queensland government should veto a proposed $1 billion Commonwealth loan for a rail line to the Carmichael mine.
Indigenous activist Lola Forester told SBS World News the site will 'desecrate' numerous First Nation communities.

"Not only the people that are working in the coalmines will end up with black lung, but it's coming up in our children as well," Ms Forester said.
"So it's not just about the environment, it's about the cost of human lives that are happening up there.
At least 2000 people spelled the words 'Stop Adani' at Bondi beach in Sydney. It was one of numerous protests across the country against the proposed coal mine. (Supplied)SUPPLIED
New poll results show Australian majority against Adani
Almost 2200 people were quizzed in the ReachTel poll this week.
Respondents were told Adani wanted to build a new coal mine in Queensland, which the Indian company said would create local jobs.
They were also told concerns had been raised about the company's corporate track record and the environmental impact of the mine, before being asked if they supported or opposed the project going ahead.
A clear majority of people (55.5 per cent) either opposed or strongly opposed the mine, while 26.1 per cent said they supported or strongly supported it.
Almost one in five (18.4 per cent) were undecided.
Support was highest among Australian Conservatives, Liberal and One Nation voters, while Greens, Labor and Nationals voters were most keenly opposed.
"And I have to say if he doesn't respond to it (the protests and figures), it will be goodbye Malcolm," added businessman and Australian Conservation Foundation President Geoff Cousins.
Adani allegations
An ABC Four Corners investigation this week aired allegations of bribery, corruption, tax evasion and money laundering by Adani-linked companies.
Those polled were also told Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk made an election commitment that Labor would not spend public funds on Adani's private rail line for their coal mine.
People were then asked if the Queensland government should keep its promise and use its power to veto a $1 billion Commonwealth loan to Adani for the rail line.
Two-thirds of respondents (65.8 per cent) said they should veto the loan, while 17.7 per cent said they should not, with 16.5 per cent undecided.
The Stop Adani Alliance, which is organising the national rallies, is made up of 31 organisations.
Its membership has doubled since it launched in March, while more than 160 groups have formed in that time.

eden - crying birds
Crying Birds
By Demiera Harris
I'll admit that the title track to Eden's Crying Birds was a bit jarring when it first started, but it evolved into a song that just made me think…'wow, this is incredibly sweet'! Eden has an absolutely beautiful voice, a voice that sounds a bit young but also slightly hardened by the truths of life – hers is a voice you identify with without even needing to hear what she's saying (I realized, after making that observation, that she expresses this exact sentiment in the lyrics – well played). The beat is certifiably pop inspired but I could definitely hear something like that on my local alternative rock station; I think it's the drums that really give it an extra kick.
I'm not sure what the track "Angels" is about but I kept having perpetual goose bumps throughout that song. It reminds me so much of 60's and 70's soul that I almost don't know what to do with myself; the addition of those drums tints it with rock and her vocals just soar above it all – I almost want to fly listening to her!
Just when I thought I couldn't be more impressed, "Blue Home" comes along with its R&B smooth vibe and yanks me back to the 90's in all its awesome happy nostalgia. My favorite song on the album, "Not In a Bad Way," followed with a sort of rapped vocal that reminded me of Left Eye from TLC, with the attitude and youth but honest lyrics – though definitely a bit softer in some points of delivery. I loved how she smoothly transitioned from the rap to the sung lyrics and the power with which she performed the song. The album ends (relatively) quietly with "I Will Be," a very thoughtful and introspective song.
It seemed to me that each portion of instrumentation had its own genre and influence, but it came together to make a poppy, groovy, soul-laden album that one could sing along to in the car on the way to a party or even in the shower. But at the very heart, and what really made me fall in love with this album and Eden, was the willingness to leap beyond expectations and the musical acumen to combine a lot of different and seemingly contradictory sounds and genres into a really unique and powerfully confident collection of songs. I loved it from start to finish.
Crying Birds by Eden
She is even better live! Have seen her a few times & her voice is even better live with just her on the guitar.

Film Review: Mascarpone
LGBTQ+ content continues to be churned out at a rapid pace, often to the point where quantity has not been matched with quality. Mascarpone posits all the delights of a coming-of-age dramedy, proving that even at age 30, it is still possible to find oneself. Filmed in just three weeks in Rome, this Italian production gets a hell of a lot right that few movies of this ilk are even willing to touch. With Giancarlo Commare at its center, following our lead as he figures out his own self-worth is utterly sublime. It is not a "happily ever after" type movie; rather, Mascarpone is instead more concerned with character depth and evolution.
Antonio (Commare) apparently lives in his own little world. He is operating under the assumption that his loveless marriage with Lorenzo (Carlo Calderone) is thriving more than it's failing, but that simply isn't the case. Romantically, the pair have been in trouble for quite some time; however, Lorenzo's three-fold admission completely catches Antonio off guard. Firstly, Lorenzo wants a divorce because he is simply no longer in love. Secondly, he has been seeing another man named Enrico (Fabio Fappiano) for well over a year now. Finally, Lorenzo wants Antonio to move out of their beautiful home together so that Enrico can move in! In desperate need of a place to stay and a brand-new life direction, Antonio sets off on his own for the first time since high school without his former love.
Lorenzo knows full well that Antonio does not yet have a job. Lorenzo generously offers to pay Antonio's way with whatever housing he is able to find for up to six months, but his generosity may come with a hefty price. Initially, Antonio is only looking for a place to stay for up to a month. He meets the eccentric and sexually-free Denis (Eduardo Valdarnini), who offers up a room in his apartment to rent. With a place set in stone, Antonio takes a leap of faith that will careen him into the next stage of his life. Denis introduces him to a hot young baker named Luca (Gianmarco Saurino), and Antonio begins working with him as an apprentice. Antonio also starts attending pastry school, finally able to channel his passion for cooking into a tangible reality.
Mascarpone is a charming and beautiful film, constantly following Antonio's excitement and confusion over the modern dating scene. To say he is rusty would be an understatement, as he knows practically nothing about how dating apps work, or the proper etiquette for a one-night stand. He has only ever had one lifelong relationship. Having been with my current husband now for over a decade, I could fully relate to Antonio's struggles to make sense of it all. As silly as it sounds, I have no clue how anyone in today's world is able to meet organically without the cold distance of social media getting in the way. Denis and Luca are Antonio's window into this world, constantly providing tips and pointers about how to manage it. Luca has a number of rules he tells Antonio (including never introducing one's online dates to their real-life friends) while courting Antonio sexually in private.
Antonio's personality coupled with Commare's performance makes him an especially intriguing character to follow. Though being thrown to the side of the garbage heap is par for the course with his marriage, Antonio refuses to let this happen again. Through Denis, Antonio develops into a strong-minded person of his own as he enters his "slut phase" with two feet firmly on the ground. Directors Alessandro Guida and Matteo Pilati (who also co-wrote the script with Giuseppe Paternò Raddusa) inject Mascarpone with a zipping sexual energy and darkly comedic undertones. When tragedy strikes in the home stretch, I'm not entirely sure it feels earned or warranted enough to take that drastic of a left-hand turn. However, that aspect of the climax is maybe my only complaint. The fitting title of the film is host to a variety of interpretations, and comes into play in a major way. Mascarpone whips up a fresh and fragrant delight that is destined to become a queer date-night favorite.
Mascarpone concocts a delectable mix when it debuts in LA theaters Friday, May 6th, followed by a DVD and VOD release on May 10th.

Q: How to pass a 2D vector to a function using pass-by-reference C++ struct st
{
    int to, cost;
};

void fun(vector<st>&v1[10])
{
    vector<st>v2[10];
    v1=v2;
}

int main()
{
    vector<st>arr[10];
    fun(arr);
}

I want to pass a 2D vector in a function by reference and swap the vector with another vector in that function. But I am getting error. I don't want to do it with pair vector. I want to use structure here. How to do it?
here is a screenshot of my error messege

A: One major problem: When passing an array as an argument, what is really passed is a pointer.
It can easily be solved by using std::array instead:
void fun(std::array<std::vector<st>, 10>& v1)
{
    std::array<std::vector<st>, 10> v2;
    // Initialize v2...
    v1 = v2;
}

int main()
{
    std::array<std::vector<st>, 10> arr;
    fun(arr);
}

After introducing std::arrayabove, I would rather recommend returning the array instead of passing by reference:
std::array<std::vector<st>, 10> fun()
{
    std::array<std::vector<st>, 10> v2;
    // Initialize v2...
    return v2;
}

int main()
{
    std::array<std::vector<st>, 10> arr = fun();
}

Social responsibility and responsible business behavior are part of the Nordic brand and the backbone of our economic progress. Through business partnerships, Nordic corporate culture is transforming the way we do business. An increased focus on sustainability and transparency is necessary to unleash Serbia's full economic potential," said Ambassador of Norway to Serbia, H.E. Jørn Gjelstad.

Rezoning for high-rises at odds with West End's character, critics charge
Brent Jang
Adriane Carr gets steamed while she examines a detailed map of downtown Vancouver's West End.
The map reminds Ms. Carr of the frustration she felt in June, when the Vision party-dominated Vancouver city council approved the rezoning of the former St. John's United Church site to clear the way for a high-rise. "It just doesn't fit with the historic plans for the West End. It's just too tall and too dense," said the city councillor, who voted against the rezoning application by Westbank Projects Corp. to construct a 22-storey rental apartment in the Nelson Slopes district of the West End.
The West End, once home to the highest population density in the City of Vancouver, has trailed many other neighbourhoods in growth over the past 40 years but is now under pressure to welcome a flurry of new towers. Other areas such as Yaletown have grown by leaps and bounds while the West End has slipped to become the fourth-most densely populated. Last year, there were more than 44,500 West Enders, or 7.4 per cent of Vancouver's total population of 603,502, according to census data. In 1971, the West End's population exceeded 37,500, or 8.8 per cent of Vancouver's total then of 426,260.
A recent city-sponsored meeting about the West End's future took place at a hotel on Davie Street, near the construction site for the 21-floor Alexandra condo tower, including two retail levels. The Alexandra has faced criticisms, though the Westbank project at 1401 Comox Street stands out because it isn't on a major arterial road such as Davie, Denman or Robson.
Ms. Carr and her husband bought a West End condo in a four-storey building west of Denman Street six years ago, lured by the location being within walking distance of Stanley Park. She is an advocate for preserving low-rise apartments where possible, including many that went up during a construction boom from the late 1950s to early 1970s.
The former B.C. Green Party leader notes that the approval for Westbank and its partners came during the early stages of city hall's 21-month process to produce a community plan for the West End. City council gave the rezoning go-ahead in June, knowing a broader vision for the area would not be ready until late 2013. "When you approve something like 1401 Comox that is not keeping with current zoning, it sets a precedent that could influence the community plan itself," Ms. Carr said.
The 112-block neighbourhood also has its heritage charms. The historic Sylvia Hotel on English Bay, built in 1912 as an eight-storey apartment, was the tallest structure west of Burrard Street until 1958, for instance. The West End is bounded by Stanley Park, West Georgia Street, Burrard Street and English Bay.
Critics are worried about what looms on the horizon. "We have enough high-rises in the West End," said Gwen Green, an 89-year-old resident who has lived in the district since 1988. Another local citizen, Patrick Canny, hopes there will be specific height limits on quieter streets, such as replacing aging four-storey buildings with new structures no taller than seven storeys.
An estimated four-fifths of West End dwellings are rentals, compared with 52 per cent in Vancouver. Apartments that are five storeys or higher recently accounted for more than three-quarters of the neighbourhood's dwellings, compared with less than one-quarter for Vancouver. And single-family detached homes accounted for 0.1 per cent of the West End's housing stock, a paltry portion when compared with Vancouver's 19 per cent.
Holly Sovdi, the city's lead urban planner in the West End community policy process, proudly wore a purple T-shirt during a recent open house for residents. He said the colour represents inspiration and diversity, whether it's gays and lesbians who contribute to the area's character or low-rise apartments that dot leafy streets. "When you talk about increases to density, that causes a lot of controversy right off the bat," Mr. Sovdi said. He pledges that as the community plan takes shape, the city will treat the West End as a vibrant place to work, shop and play, not a concrete jungle to ram through high-rises.

Utah Utes win 2021 Capital One Orange Bowl-FWAA Courage Award
by FWAA Editor • Courage Award • Tags: Football Writers Association of America, FWAA
MIAMI LAKES, Fla. –The Utah Utes football team is the 20th annual recipient of the Capital One Orange Bowl-FWAA Courage Award. Utah won its first Pac-12 title in a season that has been defined by both tragedy and triumph, as the program has lost two of its players, Ty Jordan and Aaron Lowe, since the end of the 2020 season.
Both players wore the No. 22 jersey, which the program has retired. The message throughout the Utes has been to live the way Jordan and Lowe did, and to be 22 percent better every day.
Utah is the third team to be honored as the Courage Award winner, joining the 2005 Tulane and 2009 UConn teams.
"We always tell our guys that adversity will hit at some point, but what matters most is how we respond to it," Utah Head Coach Kyle Whittingham said. "This team has been faced with more adversity than we ever thought possible, and watching our players overcome it and respond to it the way they have has been incredible. The level of unity and love this team has for one another is something special. They define courage and we are proud to coach them."
In 2020, Jordan led all freshmen nationally in rushing yards per game (119.4) and was named the Pac-12's Offensive Freshman of the Year. He tragically died on Dec. 26, 2020. Lowe, a good friend of Jordan's who had attended West Mesquite High School in Texas with him, was given the Ty Jordan Memorial Scholarship ahead of this season. Lowe also changed his jersey number from No. 2 to No. 22.
Lowe played in 20 career games and became Utah's backup nickelback this season. But he, too, lost his life on Sept. 26, 2021 — nine months to the day of his friend and teammate's death. Utah has created the Aaron Lowe Memorial Scholarship in Lowe's honor.
Utah retired the No. 22 jersey during an Oct. 30 game against UCLA, making it the first retired number in school history. On that same night, the program unveiled a video honoring Jordan and Lowe that now plays at Rice-Eccles Stadium between the third and fourth quarters. The video has come to affectionately be known as a "moment of loudness," as Whittingham encourages fans to live the way Jordan and Lowe did.
The Utes had entered that Oct. 30 matchup against the Bruins at 4-3. They won that game, 44-24, to earn sole possession of first place in the Pac-12 South. And they have not looked back since.
Utah has won six straight games and now sits at 10-3 overall and No. 11 in the College Football Playoff rankings. Two of those victories during this winning streak came in dominant fashion over a higher-ranked Oregon team — a 38-7 rout in Salt Lake City on Nov. 20, then a 38-10 victory in a rematch 13 days later in the Pac-12 Championship Game in Las Vegas.
"Every year, we are privileged to help share the stories of so many remarkable people and programs throughout the college football season," former FWAA President Matt Fortuna said. "Watching this year's Utah team was particularly moving. The way the Utes have been able to push forward and find tremendous success on the field, while honoring Ty and Aaron every step of the way, shows that they have never lost sight of life's bigger picture."
Utah will close its season against No. 6 Ohio State in the Rose Bowl on New Year's Day, marking the Utes' first appearance in "The Granddaddy of Them All."
"This is the 20th year that the FWAA has awarded the Courage Award, and it's hard to think of a more appropriate representative than this year's Utah team," Fortuna said. "We would like to thank the Orange Bowl for their 17 years of sponsorship."
Amid Utah's confetti-filled celebration after winning the Pac-12 title, a member of the team's traveling party placed a red "Pac-12 Champions" t-shirt on the 22 yard line at Allegiant Stadium, in honor of Jordan and Lowe.
Players spoke adamantly after the game about how much it meant to win the conference title for Jordan and Lowe.
"The entire Utah football program has embodied what the Courage Award is all about," Orange Bowl Committee President and Chair Jack Seiler said."Through their tributes to their fallen brothers, and through their remarkable play on the field, the Utes have simply been inspiring to so many around college football. They have represented the very best of this great game. We are excited to honor them on December 31."
The Courage Award was first presented by the Football Writers Association of America (FWAA) in 2002. A select group of writers from the FWAA vote on the winner each year. The requirements for nomination include displaying courage on or off the field, including overcoming an injury or physical handicap, preventing a disaster or living through hardship. The winner of the award will be included in festivities during Capital One Orange Bowl week and receive his trophy at an on-field presentation.
Previous winners of the Capital One Orange Bowl-FWAA Courage Award are Arkansas State analyst Alex Charlton (2020), Arkansas State coach Blake Anderson (2019), SUNY Cortland linebacker Kyle Richard (2018), Wisconsin safety D'Cota Dixon (2017), Pitt running back James Conner (2016), Miami offensive lineman Hunter Knighton (2015), Duke offensive lineman Laken Tomlinson (2014), San Jose State defensive lineman Anthony Larceval (2013), Clemson wide receiver Daniel Rodriguez (2012), Michigan State offensive lineman Arthur Ray Jr. (2011), Rutgers defensive tackle Eric LeGrand (2010), the University of Connecticut football team (2009), Tulsa's Wilson Holloway (2008), Navy's Zerbin Singleton (2007), Clemson's Ray Ray McElrathbey (2006), the Tulane football team (2005), Memphis' Haracio Colen (2004), San Jose State's Neil Parry (2003) and Toledo's William Bratton (2002).

Alex Charlton named winner of 2020 Capital One Orange Bowl-FWAA Courage Award
by Ken • Awards, Courage Award, News • Tags: Football Writers Association of America, FWAA
MIAMI LAKES, Fla. — Alex Charlton is the winner of the 2020 Capital One Orange Bowl-FWAA Courage Award. Charlton left his post as an Arkansas State analyst to join the front lines of the pandemic as a COVID-19 response team nurse.
"I love football and I miss it on a daily basis," Charlton said. "But when you go to New York to help out at the peak of everything and you see all that is going on in the rest of the country, to me, how can you not do anything about it when you're capable of helping?"
In March, Charlton became a graduate assistant at Midwestern State, a Division II school in Wichita Falls, Texas. An Overland Park, Kan., native, Charlton had attended Kansas, where he was as a student assistant for the Jayhawks and stayed on after his 2013 graduation, serving as a player personnel assistant and a graduate assistant.
From there, Charlton enrolled in nursing school at University of Missouri-Kansas City in 2015. He scratched the football itch by helping out as an assistant coach at several area high schools.
Shortly after landing with Midwestern State, Charlton left his job to work as a nurse in New York, which was experiencing nearly 5,000 coronavirus cases a day at the height of the pandemic. Charlton stayed until June, when cases had fallen to roughly 1,000 per day. He returned home to Kansas, then went back to his post with the Mustangs at Midwestern State.
Late in July, Arkansas State hired Charlton as a defensive analyst. But on Aug. 9, Charlton left football again when his services were needed the most, going to Ennis, Texas to again work as a COVID-19 nurse.
Arkansas State was coached at the time by Blake Anderson, who won the 2019 Capital One Orange Bowl-FWAA Courage Award for the way he guided the Red Wolves after the death of his wife, Wendy, who passed away after a two-year battle with breast cancer. (Anderson was recently hired as Utah State's coach.)
"It's an honor to be selected for this award, especially with somebody like Blake, who has won it himself," Charlton said. "It's pretty special and heartwarming."
The 30-year-old Charlton is currently living in Fort Worth, Texas, about an hour northwest of Ennis Regional Medical Center. He will be there until at least the end of January, and likely longer. Every week brings a new schedule, and new challenges. All of it is worthwhile, Charlton says, knowing that he is doing his part to make a difference during a time in which the country is in dire need of medical personnel.
He watches as much football as he can when he's not working. Sometimes, when he gets a free hour or two during a night shift, he will watch recorded games and catch up on box scores from around the nation.
"I cannot think of an individual who is more deserving of this award than Alex, especially given these challenging times for everyone," former FWAA President Matt Fortuna said. "Here is a young man who is making an incredible sacrifice by risking his health and his career to serve others and make this world a better place.
"Alex truly walks the walk, and he sets an incredible example for the rest of us to try to live up to."
Charlton hopes to get back involved with football when the time allows for it. For now, he is answering a higher calling, working diligently to provide care for the sick in a region that needs his help, for however long that may be.
"I have seen all of the people who have won this award, and to be in that group is pretty special," Charlton said. "Thank you to everybody for their support."

Army's West nominated for Courage Award 1
DALLAS — Army's Amadeo West is this week's nominee for the 2020 Capital One Orange Bowl-FWAA Courage Award. West, a defensive end, has overcome three season-ending injuries to become a key piece of the Black Knights' defense.
Amadeo West
"Just a dream come true," West said of his success this season. "I can't express how fortunate and blessed I've been just to go out this year and represent this institution, especially the past three years with injuries. Coming back this year and just playing for my teammates, playing for my family and playing for God has made me so blessed."
West missed the entire 2017 season with an ACL tear. He missed the first eight games of the 2018 season with a ruptured Achilles. And in the third game of 2019, he tore his biceps, costing him the final 10 games of the season.
The Oceanside, Calif., native decided to give football another go and was granted a fifth year of eligibility by the Academy. He has been a huge part of Army's turnaround in 2020, as the program has rebounded from a 5-8 season in 2019 to start 7-2 this fall.
The 6-foot-2, 245-pound West has 18 tackles, five tackles for loss, two sacks, two pass breakups and one quarterback hurry for a defense that ranks No. 4 nationally entering Saturday's game against rival Navy.
A team captain, West is a semifinalist for the Jason Witten Collegiate Man of the Year and a candidate for the Senior Class Award.
West graduates Thursday, which means he will take the Michie Stadium field against the Midshipmen this weekend as a lieutenant.

Vanderbilt's groundbreaking kicker nominated for Courage Award
DALLAS — Vanderbilt's Sarah Fuller is this week's nominee for the 2020 Capital One Orange Bowl-FWAA Courage Award. Fuller, the Commodores' place kicker, became the first woman to play in a Power 5 game this past Saturday.
Sarah Fuller
"I honestly haven't taken a second to soak it all in, really. I just think it's incredible that I am able to do this," Fuller said afterward. "All I want is to be a good influence to the young girls out there because there were times that I struggled in sports, but I am so thankful I stuck with it. It's giving me so many opportunities, and I've met so many amazing people through sports.
"I just want to say, literally, you can do anything you set your mind to — that's the No. 1 thing."
Fuller took the opening kickoff of the third quarter of Vanderbilt's loss at Missouri, becoming the first woman to officially play in a major conference football game. She kicked the ball 30 yards to the Tigers' 35-yard line on a designed pooch kick, just six days after helping Vanderbilt's soccer team win the SEC tournament title.
Fuller, the soccer team's goalkeeper, had allowed just four goals in four games during the tournament. COVID-19 had left the Commodores' football team without several specialists in their prep for Missouri, so the program called upon Fuller for help.
Fuller became the third woman to appear in an FBS game, joining New Mexico's Kate Hnida and Kent State's April Goss. She was named SEC special teams player of the week, and she is expected to be on Vanderbilt's travel roster for this Saturday's game at Georgia.
The Wylie, Texas, native was named to the SEC academic honor roll in 2019 and 2018 and the SEC first-year academic honor roll in 2017. Fuller started nine of 12 games for Vanderbilt's soccer team this fall, leading the Commodores to a 7-2-0 record while posting a 0.97 goals against average, the eighth-best single-season mark in program history.
Fuller plans to transfer to North Texas, where she will play soccer for two more years and pursue her master's degree in hospital administration.
"She wasn't trying to set some landmark event. She was just trying to help really where she could," Derek Mason said after the game. "There's just a lot to be said about Sarah and her unselfishness and her ability to say, 'OK, if called upon, if needed, I'm a Commodore and anything that I can do to help this team I'll do it.' She did it with a smile on her face all week.
"For her, I just think the world of her. Her ability to just be in the moment and not really be scared of the moment or afraid of the moment but just looking to dominate the moment is what she did. Hat's off to her."
Iowa State TE Chase Allen nominated for Courage Award
By Matt Fortuna
DALLAS — Iowa State's Chase Allen is this week's nominee for the 2020 Capital One Orange Bowl-FWAA Courage Award. Allen has overcome a number of physical setbacks both on and off the field, including being hit by a car, to become a key starter for the No. 13 Cyclones.
"You always wonder how good a player you'll be after you recover from things like that, but I really never doubted anything," Allen told The Des Moines Register. "Injuries happened early in my career. Maybe I just got them out of the way early."
While walking to the football complex during the summer of his freshman year in 2016, Allen was hit by a car. He needed 107 stitches. Once he recovered, just before that season, he had a bout with the mumps, which then led to viral meningitis. He lost 20 pounds from the toll that the infection took on his body.
The 6-foot-7, 240-pound tight end went on to play in all 13 games and start nine as a redshirt freshman in 2017, earning second-team All-Big 12 honors. The following season, in 2018, Allen was forced to miss five games because of an abdominal injury.
Allen rebounded in 2019 to again play in all 13 games, starting five, earning second-team All-Big 12 honors for the second time.
The Nixa, Mo., native has been named first-team Academic All-Big 12 in each of the past three seasons. Allen earned his mechanical engineering degree this past spring, and he is pursuing a graduate degree in industrial and manufacturing systems. Additionally, he is the president of Iowa State's student-athlete advisory leadership committee and a candidate for the Senior CLASS Award.
Allen has started five games in his redshirt senior season this fall, recording 13 receptions for 173 yards and two touchdowns for the 6-2 Cyclones, who travel to No. 17 Texas for a Friday morning tilt. Iowa State has started 6-1 in conference play for the first time in program history. Allen has 42 career catches for 463 yards and four touchdowns.
"We're having a blast this year," Allen said this week. "I hope you guys are having as much fun watching us as we are playing, because this is the most fun I've ever had in my life."
2020 Orange Bowl Courage Award Nominees

Kentucky team nominated for Courage Award
by Ken • Awards, Courage Award • Tags: Football Writers Association of America, FWAA
DALLAS — The Kentucky football team is this week's nominee for the 2020 Capital One Orange Bowl-FWAA Courage Award. The Wildcats beat Vanderbilt, 38-35, on Saturday, just two days after offensive line coach John Schlarman died after a two-year battle with cancer.
"The bottom line is to honor John by playing the way he coached, lived his life, and we constantly talked about the tenacity that he had, the toughness that he had, but also when he was a player he was extremely technical and very detailed," Kentucky head coach Mark Stoops said after the win.
Kentucky lined up for the first offensive play from scrimmage without a player manning the left guard spot, which was Schlarman's position during his playing days with the Wildcats from 1994 to 1997. Vanderbilt declined the delay of game penalty, and Landon Young was sent on the field afterward to complete the Wildcats' offensive line — while wearing No. 65, which had been Schlarman's number.
Kentucky players wore "JS" on their helmets as well.
Schlarman was diagnosed with cholangiocarcinoma in the summer of 2018. He coached throughout his treatments and did not miss a game until Kentucky's previous two contests before Saturday. Stoops gave Schlarman the game ball after an Oct. 17 win at Tennessee, which was Schlarman's last game.
A four-year starter while with the Wildcats, Schlarman earned first-team all-freshman honors from the SEC in 1994, was chosen as the team's most outstanding offensive lineman in 1995 and 1996, and was named All-SEC as a senior in 1997. He made the SEC Academic Honor Roll three times and, in 1997, became a finalist for Academic All-America.
The Kentucky native got his college coaching start at his alma mater as a graduate assistant from 2000 to 2002, then returned when Stoops was hired in 2013.
Schlarman was a nominee for the Capital One Orange Bowl-FWAA Courage Award in 2018.
On Saturday, Kentucky honored its beloved coach the best way it knew how: by rushing for 308 yards on 35 carries in a winning effort.
"We lost a member of our family. We lost our coach and someone who was a father figure to every offensive lineman that's come through this program," Young said after the game. "One of the toughest, greatest men I've met in my life. Having the opportunity to wear his number was a blessing for me."
Miami's D'Eriq King nominated for Courage Award
DALLAS — Miami's D'Eriq King is this week's nominee for the 2020 Capital One Orange Bowl-FWAA Courage Award. King, a redshirt senior quarterback, lost his father this past winter to a heart attack and saw his mother undergo treatments for breast cancer throughout the last year.
D'Eriq King
"I could always count you to hold me down!" King wrote in a Twitter post when his father died. "The way you loved your family and your will to do anything for us was second to none. The way you loved my mom showed me what pure love was."
King had tallied 6,346 yards of total offense and 78 total touchdowns from 2016-19 while at Houston. He transferred to Miami after the 2019 season, in need of a fresh start. But this past year has presented no shortage of challenging moments off the field.
In November 2019, King's mother, Cassandra, was diagnosed with breast cancer. On Feb. 15, just before the Hurricanes were set to start spring practice, King's father, Eric, died of a heart attack at the age of 48. He had been a youth coach in the Houston area, and his loss was devastating to his family and community.

The COVID-19 pandemic had sent players home from Miami in mid-March, which served as a blessing in disguise for King, as he got to spend more time with his grieving family.
His mother was declared cancer-free on July 20. Two months later, King took the field with the Hurricanes for the first time.
The 5-foot-11, 202-pound King has helped lift Miami to a 6-1 record and a No. 9 ranking in the AP poll. The team captain has completed better than 63 percent of his passes for 1,831 yards with 16 touchdowns and four interceptions. He has added 406 rushing yards and two more scores on the ground.
On Friday at NC State, King led a fourth-quarter comeback and finished with 536 yards of total offense and five passing touchdowns. He earned multiple national player of the week honors for his efforts, and he became the first player since 2018 to throw for 400 yards and five touchdowns while also rushing for 100 yards in the same game.
The person who last accomplished that feat? Also King, while at Houston.
Alex Charlton, former aide to two programs, nominated for Capital One Orange Bowl Courage Award
DALLAS – Alex Charlton is this week's nominee for the 2020 Capital One Orange Bowl Courage Award. Charlton, a former Midwestern State graduate assistant and Arkansas State volunteer defensive analyst, took a leave from football to join the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic as a nurse.
"There were many times I just found myself holding somebody's hand who just needed that moment of support," Charlton told The Athletic this summer, "to not feel like they're alone in a hospital with all these people walking around with all this gear on."
Charlton had been a student assistant, player personnel assistant and graduate assistant at Kansas. He enrolled in nursing school at UMKC in 2015, while helping out as a coach at local high schools. He became a GA at Division II Midwestern State in Wichita Falls, Texas after the 2019 season.
In the spring, Charlton left his job to work as a nurse in New York. He worked 12-hour shifts, seeing things that no man or woman should have to see.
In June, with daily cases in New York having fallen from around 5,000 to roughly 1,000, Charlton returned to his home in Kansas, and then to his day job at Midwestern State.
By late July, Charlton had left for a job at Arkansas State. Just two weeks later, he left for Ennis, Texas to work as a COVID-19 response team nurse.
"Football will always be there and that's my future," Charlton said during an ESPN College GameDay feature on Sept. 26. "But right now I need to see this through and do what I can to help."

Wisconsin's Dietzen nominated for Capital One Orange Bowl Courage Award
by Ken • Awards, Courage Award, News
DALLAS — Wisconsin's Jon Dietzen is this week's nominee for the 2020 Capital One Orange Bowl Courage Award. Dietzen, a sixth-year senior offensive guard, returned to the gridiron this season after initially retiring from football due to a number of ankle and hip injuries.
Jon Dietzen
"My family helped convince me I really should come back and do it," Dietzen said ahead of his return. "I remember watching games and saying, 'Oh, I bet I could still do that.' They said, 'Well, if you think you can, why don't you?'"
The 6-foot-6, 319-pound Dietzen had started 20 games at left guard on Wisconsin's offensive line from 2016-17, helping the Badgers win back-to-back Big Ten West titles and win the Capital One Orange Bowl in 2017. He started 12 games at left tackle in 2018.
Ankle and hip injuries, however, bugged him throughout much of his career, and he had hip surgery ahead of the 2018 season. He was forced to medically retire from football after the 2018 season. Even before Dietzen hung up the cleats, fellow offensive lineman Cole Van Lanen had called Dietzen the toughest guy he knew.
Capital One Orange Bowl Courage Award
In the summer of 2019, Dietzen started feeling better. He trained for months and said he felt fine. The Black Creek, Wis., native watched his teammates play without him and began to miss the game more and more. He trusted his body, along with the messages of encouragement from those in his corner, and he decided he wanted to give it another go.
Dietzen approached Wisconsin's coaching staff in the middle of the 2019 season about possibly returning. The program made his return official when it released its roster in late September ahead of the 2020 season.
On Friday night in Madison, Wis., Dietzen started at right guard in the Badgers' 45-7 win over Illinois. "Definitely the more football I watched, the more I missed it," Dietzen said.
2019 Courage Award goes to Arkansas State coach Blake Anderson
MIAMI LAKES, FL. — Arkansas State coach Blake Anderson is the winner of the 2019 Capital One Orange Bowl-FWAA Courage Award. Anderson coached the Red Wolves to a 7-5 record this fall following the death of his wife, Wendy, who passed away this summer after a two-year battle with breast cancer.
Arkansas State coach Blake Anderson
"The past two years have been the most difficult time our family has ever faced, especially these last few months since Wendy's passing," Anderson said. "I can only say that even in the midst of heartache, we have always felt the strength of Christ, the support of our coaching staff, players and administration, as well as the love of so many amazing people across the country lifting us up each step along the way. I pray that God will continue to use our journey in big ways to honor Him and the legacy of Wendy's heart for God and others."
In the spring of 2017, Wendy Anderson was diagnosed with triple-negative breast cancer. The cancer was located in a spot where doctors could not operate. Wendy underwent a natural treatment approach, then had surgery late that summer. She was declared cancer-free on Aug. 31, 2017.
In the fall of 2018, the cancer returned at Stage 4, and her condition worsened in the ensuing months. In January, she had surgery to relieve the pressure of five large masses in her brain. She underwent radiation and chemotherapy, and she became oxygen-dependent 24 hours a day.
Blake and Wendy Anderson had three children together. Blake took a leave of absence from Arkansas State just before Wendy died on Aug. 19, at the age of 49. Assistant head coach and defensive coordinator David Duggan served as the Red Wolves' interim head coach until Anderson's return on Sept. 7.
"Coach Anderson has been the epitome of courage in the face of unimaginable adversity throughout these past two years," 2019 FWAA President Matt Fortuna said. "The way that he cared for Wendy and
their children, and the example that he has continued set for both his players and the college community at-large, transcends sports."
Anderson's first game back on the sideline was a 43-17 win at UNLV in Week 2. The following week at Georgia, during Anderson's second game back, thousands of Bulldogs fans wore pink in honor of Wendy.
"I know that there are so many inspiring stories of courage and perseverance that we see and hear each day, which is why I would like to express how completely honored and grateful I am to receive this award on behalf of myself, my family and the memory of my beautiful wife Wendy," Anderson said.
Anderson is in his sixth season at Arkansas State, after becoming the Red Wolves' fifth different head coach in five seasons. He has led the Red Wolves to a 46-30 overall record, with a 36-12 mark in Sun Belt play. The 46 overall wins are the most by an Arkansas State head coach across his first six years at the school. The 36 conference wins are the second-most ever by a Sun Belt head coach.
Arkansas State has won two conference titles under the 50-year-old Anderson. The program went 5-3 in league play this season, good for second in the West division, one year after winning the division title. Sixteen different Red Wolves players earned all-conference recognition this year.
Arkansas State will play Florida International this Saturday in the Camelia Bowl in Montgomery, Ala., marking a school-record ninth straight bowl appearance, which is the third-longest streak among Group of 5 programs.
"I think it's an honor that the Orange Bowl recognizes the courage the Anderson family has shown while facing the challenges they've endured over the last couple of years," Arkansas State athletic director Terry Mohajir said. "Blake is a great man with unwavering faith. The tremendous amount of love and care he demonstrated for his wife Wendy, while also running his football program, was quite a beautiful and moving sight. The example he has provided by his courage, love and communication to all has been quite an inspiration."

Line up for Edinburgh International Film Festival revealed
The Edinburgh International Film Festival took a step closer to positioning itself as June's must-see event this week, with the launch of next month's much-anticipated EIFF programme. The festival's artistic director, Hannah McGill, caused a stir late last year when she announced they were moving out of their usual August slot, amidst Edinburgh's busiest festival season, and positioning themselves as a solo act, in a bid to attract big names and independent films that might otherwise have obligations over August. The festival will launch in suitable style with a screening of John Maybury's The Edge of Love, based on the life of poet Dylan Thomas. BAFTA winner Keira Knightley is expected to join Maybury and co-stars Sienna Miller and Brothers and Sisters star Matthew Rhys on the red carpet. Documentaries will play an important part in the line-up, with the festival showcasing 22 documentary features from 11 different countries. Highlights include Sundance favourite Man on Wire, directed by James Marsh, Chris Waitt's A Complete History of My Sexual Failures – about the director's attempts at closure with an array of his ex-girlfriends and Errol Morris' Berlin International Film Festival Jury Grand Prix winner, Standard Operating Procedure.
High glamour comes in the guise of retrospectives on the incomparable French screen siren Jeanne Moreau and late American actress and filmmaker Shirley Clarke. McGill said the two women represented the same 'trailblazing spirit, boldness and intelligence' as the festival itself. Elsewhere, EIFF's popular Mirrorball strand will celebrate its 13th anniversary punting its usual brand of innovation and exploring the creative worlds of music, promos and advertising. This year affords a new spin with the inclusion of a series of live events, as well as screenings. Highlights of the programme include A Trip Out with British Sea Power, at the Caves, followed by a Q&A session and live music soundtrack. The Mirrorball collective will also host the first Mirrorball Award for Best British Video.
This year's Edinburgh International Film Festival runs from 18–29 Jun. www.edfilmfest.org.uk

Garden Club of Taos
Celebrating 70 Years of Beautification and Horticultural Education in Taos County
How & When the Hollyhock Came to Taos
by Ruth L. Fish (July 1963)
The hollyhock is the official flower of the Taos Garden Club and has long since been unofficially accepted as the floral symbol of the Town of Taos. It is well-chosen, for no other plant has flourished with such persistent vigor as it has shown, despite the handicaps of general neglect, poor soil, and drought that it has often had to suffer. Year after year its strong spikes of gaily-colored blossoms have continued to gladden the dooryards, patios, acequia banks - even alleys and roadways - of the community to the delight of Taoseños and visitors alike, and it has come to be recognized as "the Taos flower."
Its genaeological background is long and interesting. Its botanical name is Althea rosea, a genus of the Mallow Family, and a cousin to the exotic hibiscus of the tropics, as well as to the practical okra and cottons of the temperate zones. Its common name derives from Hocys Bengaida, a name given in Wales to the Malva benedictus, "holy mallow" of medieval Latin literature. Wedgewood, an English botanist, says that it was called "holy" because the first of the plants brought to southern Europe came from the Holy Land, to which it had been transplanted from China, its original home. Its characteristic of survival in all climates and soils had caused it to be transplanted to all parts of the civilized world during the Middle Ages, and it is mentioned as "holy-hoke," an adaptation of the Welsh name, in a British horticultural treatise of 1548.
To the Spanish, the plant was generally known as Las Varas de San Jose, "rods (or staffs) of St. Joseph," and as such it was pictured in many early paintings of St. Joseph in southern Europe, its quality of enduring all manner of circumstances in all climates and soils typifying God's love and mercy for mankind. In this way, it came to have a very special meaning for our Spanish colonists who brought the seed from the Mother Country in the earliest years of settlement. The Spanish people have ever been lovers of flowers, and even in arid New Mexico, the doñas and their gardeners soon had flowers lining their portales and bordering their adobe walls. The hollyhocks survived when many more tender plants could not abide the rigors of late spring and early autumn frosts, burning noon-day sun, and persistent drought; and so they became the favorites; seed was shared; and soon, as one of my aged neighbors has said, "Everyone had hollyhocks."
We of the Garden Club cherish a story from a biography of Mrs. Teresina Bent Scheurich, the daughter of Charles Bent, our martyred first governor of Territorial New Mexico. She was born in the Old Bent Home, now an interesting Anglo-pioneer museum on the heart of town. Miss Bent married Aloys Scheurich, a German-born musician, who came to town in 1859. While in St. Louis on his way to the West, he became intrigued with the tales of the traders who drove their lumbering ox-wagons back and forth over the Santa Fe Trail. He bought a freight outfit and came to Santa Fe, and - of course - on to Taos.
When he met the gracious Miss Teresina, he decided to make his headquarters here too, and their mutual interest in music, their violin and piano duets, soon developed into a romantic attachment. In 1860 they were married, and in 1865, when his trading had prospered, they bought the home on Teresina Lane, commonly called Bank Alley at present and now occupied by a well-known restaurant and exclusive shops. It is said to be the second oldest house in town and had once been the thick-walled fortress-residence protecting the southwest corner of the town's first walled plaza compound.
When the place had been put in order and additions made, there were 29 rooms that housed the family and their servants. There was a zaguan which has been left intact and now leads to a parking lot, but very little of the once-spacious patio remains unroofed.
In the original patio Teresina had a lovely garden; and according to her granddaughter, Tessie Berry, the first thing she did after planting trees and vines was to send to St. Louis to a seedsman acquaintance of her husband for the first commercially packaged flower seeds that came to Taos, and they came of course in a freight wagon over the Santa Fe Trail.
She loved the Valley's Varas de San Jose and sent for gorgeous double varieties of hollyhocks in every shade, along with Butones de Oros, as the Spanish called marigolds. (Isn't that a lovely name for marigolds - Butones de Oro - Buttons of Gold?) True to tradition, the hollyhocks flourished; Mrs. Scheurich shared them with her neighbors and friends; and new strains were added to our favorite flower. When I came to Taos almost 30 years ago, I found several homes with plantings which their proud owners claimed to be descendants of that precious stock.
The Taos Garden Club was organized in 1949 by Mrs. Donald G. Secrest who became its first president. She too loved the hollyhocks, and at her suggestion the club's first project was the scattering of seeds along the main highways leading to town, along residence streets and downtown alleys and in the Plaza. Encouragement was given to the owners of service stations, hotels, motels, and the owners of conspicuous vacant lots to plant hollyhocks, with the Club furnishing seed when necessary. By the second and third year after the seeds were in, the results were quite spectacular. Tourists began to pick seeds from these plantings, and club members packaged seeds to give to visitors and to be distributed at the Chamber of Commerce.
Unfortunately, the various highway and street paving projects and the installation of water mains in the interim destroyed most of these efforts, but still hollyhocks remain in abundance as anyone can see who comes into town from any direction. The club is perennially grateful to the many townspeople who continue to use them as their chief summer floral display in public and private gardens. Just look about you as you drive around within the next few days, and you will know why the hollyhock is our Taos flower.

dc.description.abstract We report the study of a predicted outer-membrane leptospiral protein encoded by the gene lic11207. This protein is conserved in several pathogenic leptospiral strains but is absent in the saprophyte Leptospira biflexa. This putative outer-membrane protein has a domain of unknown function (DUF) 1565 found in several phylogenetically diverse bacteria and in the archaeon Methanosarcina acetivorans. The gene was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (SI) strain using the expression vector pDEST17. The 34 kDa recombinant protein was tagged with N-terminal hexahistidine and purified by metal-charged chromatography. The purified protein was used to assess: reactivity with human convalescent sera; in vivo expression; ability to activate endothelial cells (EC); and ability to modulate the apoptosis of polymorphonuclear cells (PMNs). The LIC11207 coding sequence was identified in vivo in the hamster renal tubules during experimental infection with Leptospira interrogans. The rLIC11207 showed significant antigenicity against human convalescent sera when compared with sera from healthy donors. The recombinant protein did not alter the surface expression of E-selectin or intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) in EC and failed to induce the release of von Willebrand factor (vWF). Interestingly, rLIC11207 delayed apoptosis of PMNs suggesting a possible role of this protein during the infection. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.

Until I get additional information I will keep the turnout for this election on the Voter Turnout page at 6142.
The texts of the ballot measures can be found on DavisWiki.
