US Postal Service creates new stamp to raise money for veterans with PTSD
By News Videos on December 5, 2019
A new stamp with a cause has sprouted up thanks to the U.S. Postal Service.
The USPS announced Monday that it has issued a semipostal stamp that will help raise funds for people who have been diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
The stamp features a photographic illustration of a green plant sprouting from the ground covered in fallen leaves, intended to symbolize the PTSD healing process.
Greg Breeding designed the bright green bud set on a black background with the words "Healing PTSD" and the original art was done by Mark Laita.
"The Postal Service is honored to issue this semipostal stamp as a powerful symbol of the healing process, growth and hope for tens of millions of Americans who experience PTSD," David C. Williams, vice chairman, Board of Governors of USPS, said in a statement.
Williams served as the dedicating official for the new stamp and said that with its issuance "the nation renews its commitment to raise funds to help treat soldiers, veterans, first responders, health care providers and other individuals dealing with this condition."

There used to be a time when you could pick up the phone when someone else was already using it, and listen into their conversation. Sometimes you could do this without them even noticing. Now that cellphones are so prevalent, is it possible to still be stealthy when it comes to the phone calls of other individuals? Here are three VOIP features that can help you be the superspy you've always wanted to be.
The least involved feature is called monitoring or spy mode. It allows you to listen into an ongoing phone call with your end fully muted. An administrator could listen without any fear of being noticed due to breathing or background noise.
The whisper feature allows you to listen into an ongoing phone call with only one party being able to hear you. An administrator could listen into a call and provide help when needed to his/her employee, as if whispering in his/her ears.
The barge feature allows you to fully enter an ongoing phone call. Both calling parties will know you're there, allowing you to provide help whenever needed.
All of these tools can be very helpful when training new employees, or to ensure quality customer service. Many VOIP services also allow you make calls from mobile phones as long as it comes from your VOIP phone number. In this case, you can use these features from wherever you are located.

"God's Calling in the Life of Ann Hasseltine Judson" Levens teaches Sunday school series at First Presbyterian Church
Dr. Laura Levens, Assistant Professor of Christian Mission at BSK, will be teaching a Sunday morning adult class at First Presbyterian Church during the month of October. The study will be four Sundays: October 3, 17, 24, 31, with a break taken on the Sunday of fall break for Fayette County Schools. Individuals can attend in person or on Zoom. The description for the class reads,
"This class explores the nature of God's calling by investigating the life of early American missionary Ann Hasseltine Judson (1789-1826). In 1812, Ann Judson left with her husband Adoniram and other Congregationalist missionaries to fulfill what she believed to be God's calling to mission in India. Many things changed in Ann's life after her departure, most notably the Judsons' decision to become Baptists and their eventual destination of Rangoon in the Empire of Burma. Over four weeks, the class will examine the common themes in Ann Judson's life, including her practices of discernment and adjusting to her calling, her work in religious formation, pastoral care and civilian diplomacy, and her theology of God's presence in mission. Lots of events in Ann's life will give us the opportunity to consider issues such as power, politics, gender, Christian conversion, and community formation as we explore Ann's missionary calling and talk about following Jesus."

Q: Active Directory behind firewall Not my bread and butter so I hope I'll be clear enough.
I have number of Windows 7 workstations running behind firewalls out there in the wild.
I have an Active Directory inside my corporate organization, behind a firewall.
I'm very limited on what I can do on the firewall...opening a port or two might be fine but that's it.
Bottom line, I need to centralize my users and policies via the Active Directory.
Can I do that via VPN? how will the first authentication happen?
Can I do that through SSH tunneling (assume that I have the proper infrastructure in place which obviously can run only after login)?
Thanks

A: The first thing you need to do is join each workstation to the domain. In order to do that, each workstation needs to be able to communicate with the Active Directory Integrated DNS server (this is the domain controller). What you should absolutely not do is open ports for unencrypted AD traffic from remote workstations to your domain controller. This is such a bad idea I'm not even going to discuss it.

Can I do that via VPN? how will the first authentication happen?

Yes, you can use a VPN. If you do, each workstation will need to be connected to the Internet first, then authenticate with a local account or AD account using cached credentials, then authenticate to the VPN. This is the wrong way to do this. I have seen many people try to do it this way and please for the love of all IT administrators don't do this. You will only create more problems that will need fixed later. More importantly, this will work horribly. :)
Better options are using a site-to-site VPN at each office where there are workstations that are joined to the domain or paying your ISP to establish a layer 2 circuit between each office and the main office where the domain controller is located.
The best solution is to have a DC at each office and then connect each office using a layer 2 circuit to the main office. AD authentication and updates occur at each local DC and the local DCs synchronize changes with the DC at the main office via the layer 2 circuits.
Making product recommendations is off topic for server fault, but the bottom line is you need to establish connectivity between each workstation and the domain controller. Another way to do this is to bring each workstation to the network where the domain controller is and join the workstation to the domain but this is really not the proper way to handle this. If you are going to have these workstations at remote locations and you need them joined to the domain then you might want to research site-to-site VPNs and layer two circuits you can buy from your current ISP.

The supreme court has dismissed the suit of Nyesom Wike, Rivers state governor, challenging the jurisdiction of the election petition tribunal to hear a petition by APC's Dakuku Peterside while sitting in Abuja.
The contention of the PDP candidate is that the tribunal should have sat in Rivers state.
The tribunal was moved to Abuja over for security concerns, as those of Akwa Ibom, Yobe, Adamawa and Borno.
The appeal court had earlier ruled that the tribunal could sit in Abuja to handle Rivers election petitions.
The Rivers tribunal had last Saturday sacked Wike as governor of the state, and ordered that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) hold a fresh election within 90 days.
The apex court held that the tribunal was properly constituted and had jurisdiction to hear the petition of Peterside.
In a lead judgment read by Justice Sanusi, the court ruled that the shift in location of the tribunal from Rivers to Abuja was out of necessity, and added that the president of the appeal court did not err in law by ordering the relocation of the tribunal.
The court therefore dismissed Wike's suit for lack of merit.
The seven judges of the court, who were all in agreement with the ruling, stated that the relocation of the tribunal was to protect members of the panel and as such complied with the "doctrine of necessity".

Comparative: Ann Patchett's "Commonwealth" and "The Dutch House" – Part 2: Forgiveness
In part two of this comparative, the theme of forgiveness will be discussed. Ann Patchett has written these two novels, summaries below,[i] to deal with sibling relationships. What sibling relationship doesn't have the element of forgiveness woven intricately throughout it? Of course, this process can be dealt with in different ways, and Ann Patchett recognizes that, but following her characters through that process is the beauty of both books.
After reading these novels, the reader may question the author's own experience with siblings and childhood. I didn't necessarily think these novels could be autobiographical, but after researching her, I was surprised to find they are. One could be literally autobiographical – "Commonwealth" – and the other contains what she calls the anti-autobiography – "The Dutch House." Her explanation of the anti-autobiography[ii] is that a writer can write through her own experiences of what she imagines the opposite of what she would have wanted to be in her life. For example, the stepmother, Andrea, is representative of her most awful conjuring of what she could be like as an evil stepmother.
According to multiple sources, her upbringing is most closely reflected[iii] in, "Commonwealth." Thankfully, one reporter specifically asked her about this, and she stated, "…my parents got divorced when I was young and my mother married someone who had four children and we moved to the other side of the country — albeit not to Virginia — and I think that being thrown together, being pulled out of a family and put into a family has always been very interesting to me."[iv]
Did she write this book in the mirror image of the story within a story written in "Commonwealth," one may wonder? Again, she was asked. She stated, "I certainly drew from things that were much closer to my life. I have stepsiblings, I have a sister, I have a mother, I have two stepfathers, I have a stepmother — all these people who are very close to me and very involved in my life, and they have a place in this book. It's not a book about them, but definitely I am using information from our lives — so when I created the character of Leo Posen who is the famous, older male author who falls in love with the young woman, I'm kind of simultaneously playing both parts. I am the young woman who's saying, "here is my story" and I'm the old author who is saying, "I'm going to sell you out and take your story.""[v]
So having admitted to taking on these two roles of the young woman and the old author, does the author need to ask for forgiveness from her own family? Possibly if it is as close to real life as the Commonwealth novel within the novel was.
Does she provide the role of forgiveness in families in her own opinion in both "Commonwealth" and "The Dutch House"? To some degree, yes, although in varying ways. In each of these stories, Ann Patchett, seems to fluctuate between the role of forgiveness.
In "Commonwealth," forgiveness is essential to the reunion between Franny and Albie. None of the other siblings seem to compare in their level of friendship and strength of sibling bond. Although the reunion takes place toward the end of the novel it is paramount in the author's defining of the strength of a sibling bond. Without forgiveness, the bond would have broken between Albie and Franny.
On the other hand, in, "The Dutch House," Maeve and Danny are so entwined throughout their lives that forgiveness doesn't seem to be as important to the author. However, once their mother shows up again, forgiveness is needed to bong Maeve and Danny back together.
In both novels, forgiveness is the answer in the end:
"What family stories belong to us alone? Who in the family can be entrusted with the mismatched fragments of our history? Drawing us through this complex genealogy of guilt and forgiveness, Patchett finally delivers us to a place of healing that seems quietly miraculous, entirely believable."[vi]
It seems the answer to maintaining and fortifying the sibling bond from "Commonwealth" and "The Dutch House" is to find a place of forgiveness with not only your siblings, but also other family members like mothers, fathers, step-parents, and possibly in-laws. And even when full forgiveness hasn't been attained yet, the author further notes that the bond will not be betrayed. The bond of siblings and families contains with it responsibility:
"As Danny matures, he does a lot of thinking about what he can and can't opt out of as a son, a husband, and a brother. This line hit me hard: "The point wasn't whether or not I liked it. The point was it had to be done." He seems to be saying that when it comes to family, some obligations transcend anger or forgiveness."[vii]
In the end, both of these books were fantastic studies of family dynamics. Whether fiction is a favorite of yours, like it is of mine, or non-fiction is more your style, both of these novels have both the intricate story weaving of fiction and the fascinating study of human behavior of non-fiction.
Thanks again for reading.
[i] A short synopsis of "Commonwealth" to start:
"Spanning five decades, Commonwealth explores how [a chance encounter between the father of the Cousins children and the mother of the Keating children] reverberates through the lives of the four parents and six children involved. Spending summers together in Virginia, the Keating and Cousins children forge a lasting bond that is based on a shared disillusionment with their parents and the strange and genuine affection that grows up between them.
When, in her twenties, Franny [the youngest sibling] begins an affair with the legendary author Leon Posen and tells him about her family, the story of her siblings is no longer hers to control. Their childhood becomes the basis for his wildly successful book, ultimately forcing them to come to terms with their losses, their guilt, and the deeply loyal connection they feel for one another.
Told with equal measures of humor and heartbreak, Commonwealth is a meditation on inspiration, interpretation, and the ownership of stories. It is a brilliant and tender tale of the far-reaching ties of love and responsibility that bind us together." https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/28214365-commonwealth
And a combined synopsis of "The Dutch House":
"Two siblings, Maeve and Danny Conroy, bond tightly after their mother leaves home when they're 10 and 3. Home is the eponymous Dutch House, a 1922 mansion outside Philadelphia that their father, Cyril, a real estate mogul, bought fully furnished in an estate sale as a surprise for his wife in 1946, when Maeve was 5. The house, built by a Dutch couple who made their fortune in cigarettes, is grand, with an ornate dining room ceiling, six bedrooms on the second floor, and a ballroom on the third floor. His wife, Elna, hates it, aesthetically and ethically. After she flees, ostensibly to India to devote herself to the poor, her family suffers, as if "they had all become characters in the worst part of a fairy tale," Patchett writes."

"Set over the course of five decades, The Dutch House is a dark fairy tale about two smart people who cannot overcome their past. Despite every outward sign of success, Danny and Maeve are only truly comfortable when they're together. Throughout their lives, they return to the well-worn story of what they've lost with humor and rage. But when at last they're forced to confront the people who left them behind, the relationship between an indulged brother and his ever-protective sister is finally tested." https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/44318414-the-dutch-house
[ii] "I was interviewing Zadie Smith about the idea of writing an autobiographical novel. She said she was writing about the kind of mother she was afraid of being. You can write something very autobiographical that has never happened to you because it's what you're afraid of. And I wanted to write about the kind of stepmother that I would be afraid of being."

The former governor of Akwa Ibom State and Senator representing Akwa Ibom North West, Sen. Godswill Akpabio, was reported to have been arrested by the EFCC.
The Senate Minority Leader said yesterday that he visited the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission voluntarily. He stated that the commission had invited him a long time ago before his accident in FCT and he told them that he was going to come whenever he is fit. In line with this, he went there on Friday to respond to the allegation that they said a young lawyer wrote against him.
Akpabio emphasized what he had told the EFCC concerning the allegation. He stated that after he had finished with his response, he was allowed to go and admitted on bail. This is in line with EFCC procedure, so it was not a function of an arrest.
"I just want to urge all my people in Akwa Ibom State who probably were disturbed to know that such monies were not missing from the coffers of the state, that is the simple truth and if we had such additional sums as he mentioned, we would have done more than what we put in place for the state".

Alabama county halts all marriages after same-sex ruling
JAY REEVES, Associated Press
The probate court in one of Alabama's biggest counties says it won't issue any marriage licenses at all after the Alabama Supreme Court disagreed with a federal court and upheld the state's ban on same-sex marriage.
Mobile County's probate court posted a notice on its website Wednesday saying it is halting all marriages while it reviews the decision.
The announcement doesn't say how long that review might take. And it's still unknown what probate judges in Alabama's 66 other counties will do.
A federal judge had previously ordered Mobile County's probate judge to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples.
The all-Republican Alabama Supreme Court sided with a pair of conservative groups Tuesday night and ordered Alabama's probate judges to stop issuing marriage licenses to gay couples.

TD ATM replaced $10 bills with $100 bills
Pages: 1 [2] 3 All
Topic: TD ATM replaced $10 bills with $100 bills (Read 6263 times)
Re: TD ATM replaced $10 bills with $100 bills
I realize a likely reason why banks decided to no longer order $10 bills for ATMs (and likely over-the-counter transactions too). Its significantly low demand could be caused by inflation, and the primary reason for the latter existence in demand for $10 bills was likely due to the cost of fast food. Before COVID-19 made its way to Canada, at least here in Newfoundland, the cost of a Big Mac meal at McDonald's was barely under $10 including tax. It was probably just one price hike away from exceeding $10 with tax. After the restaurants reopened in some places across Canada, they jacked the price of a Big Mac meal up to about $12. It is uncertain whether that figure includes taxes or not, but a Big Mac meal is still cheaper than many other provinces, but still too expensive for banks in Newfoundland to continue ordering $10 bills. Given there have been no new $10 bills released with the varnish coating to date (and it's been roughly a year since the first of the varnish-coasted bills were released), it's pretty clear that no bank is even interested in ordering $10 bills now.
To the best of my knowledge, there is hardly anything that causes any demand for $10 bills, so it makes sense that banks have (in some cases, already) parted ways with $10 bills. $10 bills still do exist in circulation in Newfoundland, but they are the same ones juggling around since around 2013 or 2014 (with the exception of some Canada 150 edition $10s) - and many are still in pretty good shape.
I am not sure what the Canadian government may do with the $10 bill in the future. Maybe they are only keeping it an active denomination because they expect a surge of such bills down the road, but only when inflation calls for it. I'd be quite interested to find out what the future holds for Canada's $10 bill.
walktothewater
The $10 banknote has always been a bit of mongrel amongst the 5 CDN denominations. I really doubt that it has anything to do with NFLD or the cost of inflation. Their numbers will vary from region to region.
When the "150" anniversary $10 came out I canvassed every nearby branch aggressively to get orders & to search several bundles for special SN. Some banks told me that they didn't order any & wouldn't order any while others were keeping stock of the Tens. I remember one bank teller asking me who I know uses cash (esp $10) anymore? Now, I'm still looking but not so keenly, and I have found many banks have stopped ordering them. They're less stocked then the other 4 denominations.
I've been wanting to get my hands on the new IN_ $5 prefixes and up until about a month ago, forgettaboutit! Finally, a few crumpled ones started showing up about 2 weeks ago. Now I've watched the SNDB & I have seen them arrive in the province of Quebec some time ago & then later in TO. So you've got a point, demand could also be a small factor & if there's no demand, they won't restock & it will take ages for the new $10 to come out (& expect a long delay in seeing new signature combos). I know its frustrating but its part of the life of a collector.
I think the only way banks will reconsider ordering $10s again, will be when the cost of a candy bar, a bag of chips, and/or a single serving size of Pepsi or Coke products exceeds $5 including tax. Many or all of these items cost barely more than $2 (including taxes), so we have a long way to go before we see a surge of $10 bills in Canada, and many of us will likely be deceased by the time that happens.
Another thing I realized, is that the number of $10 bills in circulation had increased in very tiny increments over some years. Could those tiny increases be due to the banks having stockpiles of $10 bills accumulated and causing a backlog in distribution to customers, resulting in the banks discontinuing ordering $10 bills indefinitely until the backlog is cleared? I know there are a lot of $10 bills in circulation, but it's possible that of that number, very, very few are in the hands of customers.
« Last Edit: February 12, 2021, 07:30:48 am by AJG »
Only when the $5 note is replaced with a coin will the $10 become popular again.

And given that a new $5 bill is in development, and the likelihood that no new banknote series will likely be considered for at least a couple of decades afterwards, the $5 bill is here to stay.
I can see a possibility that a few years after the $2 coin came out, there was a surge of $5 bills in circulation by the turn of the century. It seems as if I don't see a $2 coin in my change much these days, implying that $5 is the new $2.
Regarding the $10 bill, it's likely possible there will be no new $10 bills for some years, to say the least - otherwise we would have seen new $10 bills with the varnish coating by now.
I think the key reason for the $10 bill's current life is Scotiabank. If I recall, many bank corporations rely on secured cash dispensers in order to avoid robberies. They configure the machines to dispense $5/$20/$50/$100 only. $10 bills are the first to be dropped, since most customers do not favor them - at least where I live.
I am not sure if it has to do with Sir John A. MacDonald's likeness - a controversial figure at that - on the older tens, or the fact that the $10 bills have a high percentage of counterfeits that may have tarnished the banknote's reputation, even though a notable woman is now on it. Despite that a notable woman, Desmond, replaced MacDonald, there are still very few $10s being used across the nation. I also realize that the number of $10 bills in circulation had risen over the years but in tiny increments, but do you suppose most of that number is made up of stockpiles of $10 bills that were sitting in bank vaults for many, many years, and the real number of $10 bills being used may be drastically lower than we expect? I can see a likely reason why many banks decided to discontinue ordering $10 bills - most likely permanently.
Scotiabank is one bank corporation that does not rely on such dispensers, though there may be many Scotiabank branches that do not order $10 bills. I think the only thing that will result in a possible demise of the $10 bill will be if every bank corporation relies on secured cash dispensers across the nation, which will only dispense $5/$20/$50/$100 in this day and age. If this happens, $10 bill orders will be dropped by all of the remaining banks, and production of $10 bills will likely cease since bank orders will be zero by that point, and in a matter of time, the $10 bill will likely go the way of the $500 bill and the 50-cent coin.

-'Seth' makes a great point. Demand for the $10 banknote will be its only saving grace. If Canadians demand the Ten Denomination, &/or cash for that matter, then the banks will stock up on the denominations (& cash) because it is finally in demand. It's really that simple. People are using less & less cash (as we all know). They may be hoarding it but they're not using it that much in day-to-day transactions. The "Better-than-Cash Alliance" is actively deep-sixing the future of cash & have used this pandemic as another reason to be rid of it (as a filthy vector of Covid-19). They're constantly on a smear campaign re: cash & tout its use as a means to propagate criminal activity & other social evils. It's all rubbish but they're awfully slick with their propaganda campaigns & people seem to buy into it.
Everybody seems to be good with the demise of cash, racking up huge debts & the credit card loyalty programs. The younger generation has a "bring it on" attitude re: cash going the way of brass buttons. It would be amazing if cash wasn't demonized/demonetized and people suddenly realized its true value but I doubt that's going to happen (in my lifetime) as there's no real lobby group supporting its use. It would do us well to look at other nations (& their use of cash) or at least recognize the perils of relying solely on electronic payments.
GO LEAFS GO!

You'd think that with the money being plastic, it would not harbour viruses for as long as paper bills would...
And it has always been common sense to wash your hands after handling money.
I think, personally, with many banks discontinuing ordering $10 bills, I have a feeling that, the least that's going to happen to the $10, if demand goes the way it's going, is that it will become very scarce like the U.S. $2 bill (I didn't say the 50¢ coin because they are long defunct from general circulation).
If $10 bills become scarce like the U.S. $2 bill, I can see the number of denominational letters for the $10 bill being downgraded to just one, and the other four denominational letters being recycled on the $50 and $100 bills since the number of bills in circulation for those denominations are rising rapidly. The $100 bill will need more than just J and K, and the $50 will need more than just H and M. Why use five denominational letters for a $10 banknote that has significantly fallen out of favour when really only one is needed?

Paper Money is art!
Gentle reminder to all: The proper term is note, nor bill.
In the early days of the pandemic when our understanding of SARS-CoV-2 was very limited, it was assumed it was transmitted in much the same way cold & flu. That turns out to not be the case; Covid is an aerosol transmitted by airborne means. It's possible but not plausible to contract it by surface touch. The theatrics of disinfecting handles and counters every 2 minutes needs to stop.
That being said while banknotes have always been a vector for some nasty stuff, Covid is not one of them. I've noticed an increase of cash use in 2021. There will always be a use for physical cash, e.g. paying for items you buy at a yard sale or fresh fruits at a little stand by a farm on a country road.
In the early days of the pandemic when our understanding of SARS-CoV-2 was very limited, it was assumed it was transmitted in much the same way cold & flu.
- You know what? i wish that were true. The sad reality is that Bill Gates (& other billionaires) created the Better than Cash Alliance https://www.betterthancash.org/ a lobby group (based in the USA but working throughout the world to be rid of cash). They have actively spread false rumours & campaign for the end of cash very successfully. They're so successful (& well funded) that they provide financial incentives for business that refuse to accept cash. This has happened in many major cities (NYC, London, Tokyo, etc).
I really wish people would educate themselves. Go on the BTCA site now (please check it out). They're now creating sweet lies about how they're empowering women from 3rd world countries. I was just in the Philippines & rarely could use my credit card. People distrust credit cards b/c they live on an island where cyclones can render ATM's useless as fast as you can say the word "buzz-kill." Check out the site & you will see how proud they are that they are actively spreading propaganda on that island nation to be rid of cash. They also were behind India's debacle with the demonetizing of their large 1000 Rupee note, claiming that it would help Indians get bank accounts, etc, etc (blah blah, blah ad nauseum). They have padded brilliant economists' bank accounts to spread untruths about how criminals only use cash (never launder money through banks). It goes on and on & the sad part is, they've convinced a LOT of people!
As soon as the pandemic hit, countless adds came on CDN TV channels showing cashiers smiling happily at debit card users & slogans recommending people refrain from cash, to keep Covid at bay. It was ridiculous. When asked to provide any concrete evidence re: their claims that cash is a vector they have no science/ no data (because it was never true).
Anyway, the sooner people get straight about how insidious some institutions (& movements) are, the better (IMO).

and I have found many banks have stopped ordering them. They're less stocked then the other 4 denominations.
I'd like to ask, were at least one of the branches in your area that stopped ordering $10 bills Scotiabank branches?
I have a feeling that $10 bill demand is significantly low nationwide. It would be quite interesting to find out how many $10 bills are actively in circulation at this time in each province. I wouldn't be surprised if the number of $10 bills in circulation in NL is probably no greater than the 2,000 range.

No, Bank of Montreal. In fact, one branch doesn't like it when I dump 2-4 bundles there. They told me that they had way too many & never order them (& even asked me to go to another branch).
TD is the only branch that will get new Tens for me but they also have given me old notes after I've requested new ones. It's getting tough to get what I want these days (they're just not interested in being very helpful).
I was at a Scotiabank branch doing over-the-counter banking (but not for receiving any cash, though), and I found out that the Scotiabank has supposedly invested in secured cash dispensers, and they do dispense $10 bills, unlike with their ATMs.
If I recall, the Scotiabank is likely the last of Canada's big five banking corporations to use such machines, and I am thinking the reason for this change is due to a rash of armed robberies a few years back. I don't know if TD has $10 bills in their secured cash dispensers, but it's good to hear that Scotiabank still orders $10 bills, so this means that the $10 bill will be around for a while longer. Of course, maybe Scotiabank has $10 bills in their secured cash dispensers for now, but maybe they plan on dropping them once the main commercial branches have depleted their supply.
Another thing I'd like to bring up: with massive inflation in recent weeks due primarily to COVID-19 transitioning to endemic, and the world's economy reopening simultaneously, along with the war in Ukraine, could we possibly see a surge of $10 bills in the coming weeks or months?

California governor candidates dodge pension cuts Brown foresees
Lieutenant Gov. Gavin Newsome is among four gubernatorial candidates vying for the Democratic nomination in California.
California Gov. Jerry Brown said his successor likely would be able to cut public pension benefits when state finances sour. The fellow Democrats vying for his seat this year aren't eager to wield that option.
Three of the four Democratic candidates in the June primary — front-runner Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom, former Los Angeles mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and state Treasurer John Chiang — wouldn't say if they would want that flexibility as governor. They also wouldn't say if they think cities, many of which are struggling with rising retirement costs, should have that tool, which could be used as leverage in negotiating labor contracts.
Mr. Newsom "strongly believes changes in pension systems should be done with input and buy-in from workers and those who represent them — not something that is done unilaterally," his spokesman Nathan Click said.
The circumlocution reflects political reality: Democrats rely on support from unions. It also suggests that they may turn to other painful measures, such as reducing services, before trying to change future pension benefits such as inflation adjustments.
Funding public pensions has increasingly become a credit concern weighing on some states — New Jersey and Illinois are prime examples. And rating agencies have flagged California's growing pension burden, which Moody's Investors Service pegs above the median for states.
Mr. Brown in January said legal rulings may clear the way for making cuts to public pension benefits — specifically a case before the state's Supreme Court in which lower courts ruled that reductions to pensions are permissible if the payments remain "reasonable" for workers. That would undermine a maxim called the California rule that holds that benefits can't be rolled back.
"There is more flexibility than there is currently assumed by those who discuss the California rule," Mr. Brown said at the time. In the next recession, the governor "will have the option of considering pension cutbacks for the first time," he said.
Already, the state's contribution to the public employees' retirement system for the fiscal year beginning in July is double what it was in fiscal 2009. It's worse for cities, where personnel expenses consume a greater share of budgets. A League of California Cities study found that general fund contributions to public pension funds will nearly double over the next seven years. An economic downturn would mean even higher payments to make up for investment losses.
"Antonio will be honest with the people of California, starting with telling the truth about what it will take to preserve pensions going forward," said Mr. Villaraigosa's spokesman Luis Vizcaino.
Mr. Chiang, who as treasurer is on the boards of the $356.6 billion California Public Employees' Retirement System, Sacramento, and $225.3 billion California State Teachers' Retirement System, West Sacramento, said officials and labor representatives should discuss the rising costs.
"We'll continue to have those conversations and make sure we have choices on the table," he said.
Jennifer Rindahl, the campaign manager for Democratic candidate and former state superintendent of public instruction Delaine Eastin, didn't return three emails and two calls seeking comment.
In California, registered Democrats outnumber Republicans 45% to 26%. Because of California's top-two election system, in which the top two vote-getters in a primary advance regardless of party, the candidates for the November general election could be two Democrats.

Booming from the Mists of Nowhere
The Story of the Greater Prairie-Chicken
Greg Hoch
158 pages, 10 b&w illustrations, 6 x 8 inches
The Raptors of Iowa
Sky Dance of the Woodcock
"Booming from the Mists reminds us of our prairie heritage, how much the prairie and its wildlife helped create this country, and how much we owe it. The book is a reminder that grasslands ecosystems are the nation's most endangered and that this heritage should not only 'live' in books, but in real life as well. Long live the booming of the pinnated grouse!"—Mark Herwig, editor, Pheasants Forever, Quails Forever, and Forever Outdoors
"Greater prairie-chickens are one of the most humorous and fascinating birds of the grass. For many, prairie-chickens provide the inspiration to protect remaining grasslands that are so essential for this wonderful species. This book does a great job bringing information on chickens together in one good read. Loved it!"—Brian Winter, president, Minnesota Prairie Chicken Society
For ten months of the year, the prairie-chicken's drab colors allow it to disappear into the landscape. However, in April and May this grouse is one of the most outrageously flamboyant birds in North America. Competing with each other for the attention of females, males gather before dawn in an explosion of sights and sounds—"booming from the mists of nowhere," as Aldo Leopold wrote decades ago. There's nothing else like it, and it is perilously close to being lost. In this book, ecologist Greg Hoch shows that we can ensure that this iconic bird flourishes once again.
Skillfully interweaving lyrical accounts from early settlers, hunters, and pioneer naturalists with recent scientific research on the grouse and its favored grasslands, Hoch reveals that the prairie-chicken played a key role in the American settlement of the Midwest. Many hungry pioneers regularly shot and ate the bird, as well as trapping hundreds of thousands, shipping them eastward by the trainload for coastal suppers. As a result of both hunting and habitat loss, the bird's numbers plummeted to extinction across 90 percent of its original habitat. Iowa, whose tallgrass prairies formed the very center of the greater prairie-chicken's range, no longer supports a native population of the bird most symbolic of prairie habitat.
The steep decline in the prairie-chicken population is one of the great tragedies of twentieth-century wildlife management and agricultural practices. However, Hoch gives us reason for optimism. These birds can thrive in agriculturally productive grasslands. Careful grazing, reduced use of pesticides, well-placed wildlife corridors, planned burning, higher plant, animal, and insect diversity: these are the keys. If enough blocks of healthy grasslands are scattered over the midwestern landscape, there will be prairie-chickens—and many of their fellow creatures of the tall grasses. Farmers, ranchers, conservationists, and citizens can reverse the decline of grassland birds and insure that future generations will hear the booming of the prairie-chicken.


Each month we post one recipe by the La Bussola kitchen to this page. If many people ask for it, we may also ask our executive chef to post some recipes that is served at the restaurant. Other than recipes, we will teach you about wine pairing and Italian cuisine in general.
First, season the chops with salt, pepper, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Toss to evenly coat ad then let the chops marinate for 15-20 minutes. Heat your pressure cooker to medium high heat and sear the chops until they're golden brown. If you don't have one already you may want to compare pressure cookers and get one to make other recipes. Once the chops are nicely seared, add in the water and myrtle branches. Close and lock the pressure cooker and bring the pot to high pressure. Once you've hit high pressure, turn the heat down low and maintain the pressure to cook for 10 minutes. Before serving, drizzle with some olive oil and heat on the grill to get added flavor. Be careful not to leave the lamb chops on for too long or else they will fall apart on the grill. Only grill the chops long enough to get a quick char. Serve with your choice of vegetables or sides.
More on pressure cookers: After introducing this recipe we've been asked by many people how they can use a pressure cooker. Basically, anything that you cook in a pot can be cooked in a pressure cooker for less than half the time. You can cook stews, soups, meat, vegetables, risotto, rice, and much more. If you are new to pressure cookers and think they sound intimidating to use, they're actually very simple. Think about it, even La Bussola's grandmama uses it! Some of you also asked us about some tips on buying one but we're not experts, so we encourage you to check out the best pressure cooker ratings on Cookwithpressure.com instead.
The most amazing Italian breads have a soft but firm crust, and sturdy but moist interior. Many people confuse it for French bread, but the main difference is Italian bread tends to have more infused flavors while French bread is more simple and lean. There are also many more varieties of Italian breads (focaccia, pane siciliano, ciabatta, panettone, panmarino, grissini, casiatiello, etc.) than French breads. The differences don't stop there. Bread, like many other foods, vary by region and there are many overlapping qualities. But most people prefer to make French breads like baguette because they go well with a lot of food and are much simpler to make. In fact, nowadays, the best bread making machine is equipped with a program that specifically makes French bread. Here is a recipe to make a traditional ciabatta loaf. Ciabatta is typically used to make panini.
First you have to prepare the biga the day before baking. Combine yeast and water, then slowly mix in the flour and stir so that all the lumps dissolve into the mixture. It will be very sticky and wet. Once combined, cover it then refrigerate for at least 12 hours. Then to make the bread, stir yeast and milk first, then add water, oil, and one cup of the biga. To do this, you can use a stand mixer. If you read Panasonic bread machine reviews, it's also possible to use the machine only as a mixer too. After everything is combined, the next step is kneading. You can do this by hand or stand mixer using the dough hook. Or if you use the bread machine, the process automatically kicks in. Knead for 5 minutes in total, being careful not to over-knead. It should feel stretchy and springy. Then place the dough into an oiled bowl. Cover and let it sit for 90 minutes. After it rises, the dough will have large air bubbles. Then place the dough onto a floured surface to roll up into the shape of a bread. Cut into two if needed, then place on a baking tray that is already lined with parchment paper sprinkled with cornmeal. Cover again and let it rise for another 90 minutes. Preheat your oven at 425 degree F and heat a baking tray. Spray the bread with a bit of water. Take the parchment paper with the bread and transfer it carefully onto the hot tray. Bake for 10 minutes, spray bread with water, and bake for another 10-15 minutes until done. Allow the bread to rest before slicing.


Saint Paul says that he is obligated both to Greeks and non-Greeks. "Obligated" means that he owes them a debt. To whom did Paul owe this debt? To both "Greeks and non-Greeks" means those who are not Greeks. The word is literally "barbarians," those whose words seems like babbling to the Greeks. The Greeks considered anybody besides them a strange babbler, even Jews. So Paul is saying that he owes an obligation to everyone.
What is this debt that he owes? Regarding his debt he says, "That is why I am so eager to preach the gospel also to you who are in Rome." So the debt is preaching.
A preacher has a duty to preach. He cannot decide that he will not preach and that his work is in other tasks.
If he is frustrated in his preaching work, he cannot say, "There is no use preaching because these people are foolish and won't listen!" Paul says he is obligated to preach to both wise and unwise. Those who hear and appreciate the gospel need it no more and no less than a foolish person without faith, or a foolish person who has faith but does not understand preaching. Besides, a wise person always has something to learn from the Word, and so eagerly receives it. To all, the preacher flings out the Word, as a sower scatters seed on every kind of soil he can find.
We leave the results to God. He will work His wisdom in those who hear when and where He chooses. Meanwhile, the preacher's words must be both sweet and bitter to him. He loves the Word, and therefore the preaching of the gospel is sweet to the tongue, like honey. Yet when it is rejected, the words become bitter to him, since he wishes that all would hear and find wisdom. Yet, in spite of the bitterness he may taste on his tongue, he must continue using that tongue to preach. He is obligated.
So a preacher must not be ashamed of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Paul was not ashamed of it. He would suffer many things for the sake of this gospel. He would be stoned, shipwrecked, scourged with whips, put on trial, and eventually killed. We have not suffered so much for the gospel, nor likely will. So why should we, who suffer so little, be ashamed of it?
The gospel is our glory, not our shame. In the gospel, we are declared righteous in God's sight. We are saved from sin, satan, death, and hell. For it is not any old gospel, some good news that is not rooted in hard reality, like an optimistic pithy cliché that someone throws at you when you are in distress. No, the gospel is rooted in Christ our Lord. It is His gospel, because it is the good news that He has done all for us. He lived righteously, and He suffered punishment He did not deserve, and died the death we deserved. He rose to show that God had vindicated Him as His true, eternal Son, and to show that we, also, have resurrection as a sure and certain promise. In these realities, Christ has earned for us salvation.
Yet it is received by faith. The gospel is powerful, indeed, it is the very power of God for salvation. But it is not received by those who do not believe. To believe does not mean that you must make a conscious effort of will, or make a decision to give yourself to Christ, or something like that. No, to have faith means that you trust in the promises of God. He has promised that in Christ you have salvation. If you trust that promise, then you have faith.
In that simple act of believing, you receive all the gifts of Christ that He has earned.
Even this little bit of faith is impossible to sinners. Yet the Holy Spirit gives faith as a free gift. So we receive all things from God's grace. None of it is our action. That's what makes this gospel so sweet and wonderful. That is why there can never be a good reason to be ashamed of it. God has done all for you, and will complete all His promises on the last day. None of it can be earned or worked for. So He did all the earning and all the work.
We rest secure in this free gospel. Yet we do not rest and do nothing. Although our conscience is at peace in Christ, yet we work very hard in this life. We live by faith in the sense that our lives are filled with the hard work of sanctification. The Holy Spirit is constantly prodding and pushing and enticing us to do good works and to resist the bad. So we will be active and busy as Christians at the same time that we are free and need do nothing, since salvation is freely ours.
Yet the fullest sense of the words, "The just shall live by faith," is that you are alive by faith. You are just, that is, justified by grace, through faith, on account of Christ. When, in faith, you first received His benefits, you became alive. Where once you were dead, you were raised to new life. It is not that faith is a magical power that makes you alive, as if you could believe in anything at all. No, you specifically believed in Christ our dear Lord, the crucified and risen One. From Him, life came to you. Faith was simply the way you received His gifts.
So the righteousness is "from faith to faith," as Paul literally says. Our translation says, "by faith from first to last." This is a bit of a mysterious phrase from Paul. Perhaps it means that there is no salvation apart from faith, so that faith begins you in the new life, and faith continues with you to preserve you until the resurrection and eternity. Or perhaps it means that the faith, or faithfulness, of Christ is what purchased the salvation of God, and the faith in you receives the benefits. Or perhaps it means something else. In any case, we know that faith is central to salvation. There is no separating faith from salvation. We should imagine no righteousness of God that comes from Christ to eternal life that does not involve faith.
There is no mention here of our good works. Good works should not be involved in any way with earning eternal life. Our old Adam would love to insert good works somewhere in the equation, perhaps in a subtle way, just so long as there is some sense of our work getting us salvation.
But let us stifle such thoughts from our sinful nature. Instead, let us cling to Christ alone. He is our glory and righteousness. He is our salvation. His gospel is the power of God in our midst, for we trust alone in His spoken grace. Salvation comes from nowhere else.

Q: What is the correct terminology for this array literal of struct literals? I recently ran into this method of declaring an array of structs, but could find any documentation on it anywhere since I don't know what to search for. What is this called? -and/or- Where is this syntax documented?
struct point {
    int x;
    int y;
};

// This right here:
static struct point points[3] = {
    [0] = { .x = 1, .y = 2 },
    [2] = { .x = 4, .y = 2 },
    [1] = { .x = 0, .y = 3 },
};

(My apologies if this is the wrong place to post this kind of question.)

Cameroon Travel Guide
Cameroon has a little bit of everything Africa has: vast lakes, tropical rainforests, golden beaches, volcanic mountains, bush savannahs, great stretches of dry deserts, and tropical rainforests scattered by lions, elephants, and other safari wildlife. Unfortunately, the only thing stopping Cameroon from becoming a major tourist destination in Africa is its underdeveloped infrastructure, mainly with respect to accommodations, restaurants, and transportation. Visitors may also be turned off by the poverty and high unemployment rate of the country, the lingering internal clashes between different religious and ethnic groups, and the ongoing tensions between the country and Nigeria based on border disputes. Those who are not intimidated by these drawbacks, though, will find a gem – one of Africa's better kept secrets.
Geographically, Cameroon sits on the west coast of Central Africa made up of several distinct regions. It is bordered by Nigeria in the west, Chad in the north, the Central African Republic in the east, and Congo, Guinea, and Gabon in the south. Much of the country enjoys a tropical climate with heavy rainfall; it is in fact one of the wettest places in the world.
Diversity defines Cameroon. In the major cities like Yaounde, you'll find concrete high-rises, honking, traffic-jammed cars and busy people wearing Western-style clothes. The scenery is altogether different in the villages where thatched huts and tribal clothes predominate. In the highlands of the western region in the Mbem area, you'll even find the Kaka practicing the art of spider divination – predicting the community's future by reading the leaves that have been touched by spiders. And in the northeast, you'll find people gathered around the chiefs of the Lamido of Rei-Bouba and the scene of warriors on horseback wearing turbans and flowing robes and carrying brandished swords and rifles. Cameroon is a country that is attempting to unite modern industry with the old way of life and attempting to join more than 200 ethnic groups and tribes under one roof.
Cameroon's main attraction is probably its natural beauty seen in its national parks and game reserves. The Benoue National Park, for example, encompasses 445,000 acres of land roamed by lions, hyenas, giraffes, hippopotamuses, panthers, buffalos, crocodiles, and various primates. The Lobeke National Park features watchtower lodges where you can spend the night while also enjoying the best views of wildlife such as buffalos, bongo antelopes, elephants, giant forest hogs, yellow-backed duikers, and red river hogs. But the highlight of the park are the lowland gorillas. At the Kalamaloue Reserve, you'll find more elephants, antelopes, and warthogs in addition to monkeys. At the Campo Game Reserve region in the interior of Cameroon, the virgin forests are home to roaming lions, elephants, and buffalos. The Waza National Park in the north encompasses both grassy and wet plains that feature eagles, pelicans, crested cranes, guinea-fowls, maribous, ducks, and geese, as well as vast forests roamed by lions, giraffes, cheetahs, elephants, antelopes, warthogs, cobs, and hartebeest. Bouba Ndjidah National Park, located on the banks of the Mayo Lidi River in the north, is one of the few parks in the country where you can view black rhinoceroses. But you'll also find lions, buffalos, and elephants. Finally, the Korup National Park gives visitors the chance to see Africa's oldest and most biologically diverse rainforests. Unique trees and plants and waist-high pools of water provide the habitat for monkeys, birds, and many other species that have yet to be discovered.
More of Cameroon's natural beauty can be seen outside of its parks and reserves. Spectacular waterfalls and valleys highlight the drive from Douala to Nkongsamba. Glittering white beaches line the stretches outside of Limbe, and the beautiful Londji Beach in Kribi is home to a beach resort. Outdoor enthusiasts will enjoy hiking through the Mora region in the north, the Mandara Mountains in the west, and the southwest highlands around Bamenda. Mountain climbers are treated to the popular mountaineering destination of Mount Cameroon, which is the highest active volcano in Africa. The climb takes about three or four days and begins at the base of the colonial town, Bueau. More rock climbing can be done Le Dent de Mindif in Mindif Park, which is near the town of Maroua in the north.
Cultural attractions in Cameroon include week-long expeditions to the southeast where visitors can learn more about the Baka pygmies – their hunting methods, traditional medicine, and music and dances. Roumsiki in the north amid the Kapsiki mountains is a village with mazes that link small farms. The village is home to the Kirdi, an interesting group of people who practice crab sorcery and indulge in customs and folklore just as they have for centuries.
Cameroon in the southwest is dominated by Mount Cameroon, West Africa's highest mountain at more than 13,300 feet. It is an active volcano. This region also features the country's largest city, Douala, which serves as Cameroon's principal port and transport hub. Along the coast facing Mount Cameroon are the German colonial towns of Tiko and Victoria where plantations once grew bananas, rubber, and oil palms. These products are still grown today. Also near Douala is Buea, the old capital of the German Colony, which features a German castle called the Schloss built by a colonial governor who was homesick.
Western Cameroon is dominated by highlands, grassy plateaus, and hills. It is home to the Tikar people, reputed for their energy and resourcefulness. The Muslim Bamoun and the Christian Bamileke also live in the highlands. The people in this region grow bananas, coffee, pineapples, and other tropical fruits.
In the east along the Mambila plateau, you'll find the Kirdi people who practice ancient animistic beliefs and live in clay huts, raising livestock.
Northern Cameroon, meanwhile, features dry savanna plains and pastoral scenery. The region is inhabited by the Fulani who are herdsmen raising cattle and sheep. The Fulani are also Muslim. Most of them live in the towns of Garoua, Ngaoundere, and Maroua.
In the central region of Cameroon is Yaounde, the capital of the country. It sprawls over low hills that are not far from Cameroon's major cacao-growing area. Cameroon happens to be the leading producer of cacao, which is used to make chocolate.
Cameroon was given its name and boundaries in the 15th century by the Portuguese who were the first Europeans to explore it. They arrived in Douala and ventured up the Wouri River. They named it after the Portuguese word "river of shrimps" after hauling in large shrimps just off of Douala. The Germans were the first to colonize the region in 1884. After their defeat in WWI, they were forced to give up the colony to Britain and France. The country gained independence from both Britain and France in 1961. Today, Cameroon enjoys a multi-party democracy but is also plagued somewhat by political corruption and secessionist sentiments among the Anglophone population.

I have told the children that I'm not setting them any formal homework over Easter – they can even give Times Tables Rockstars and Read Theory a break! I'd rather they had a rest and were ready to start again refreshed in two weeks' time.
The only thing I would ask is that you encourage them to continue reading for pleasure as much as possible and for the Year 6s, (if you have time) quizzing them on their Maths Knowledge Organisers (there is a copy on the school website on our class blog).
Even though nothing is compulsory, I know some of the Year 6s wanted to do some work, so I have photocopied some practice SATs papers and given them the option to take them home – there is no pressure to do any of them! Some of them didn't take any, some took only one and some took all of them. Please feel free to support your children with these (if they chose to bring them home) as much as you like.


In celebrating Easter, Gandaria Ctiy presents Everyday Shop, Play and Win from 18 March – 21 April 2019. In this program, customers who have spent IDR 500k (IDR 350k with OVO) will can redeem one egg at the Vending Machine by Easter Redemption Booth on Mainstreet Ground Floor with a chance to win Samsung Galaxy Note 9. In addition, Easter Egg Decorating Competition will take place on 20 April 2019 at Mini Parquet on 1st Floor, where the winner will receive Lego City Playground Vouchers. Also, for social media lovers, there is a game on Gandaria City's Instagram called EGGStergram, where 3 winners will receive Samsung Galaxy S8 and Samsung Wireless Charger. For those of you who like shopping, SpEGGtacular Activities offers a variety of Kids product with Easter theme from 25 March – 21 April 2019 on 1st Floor (in front of Sony) and 2nd Floor (in front of Agabang).

The Diadora Vortex-Pro II is equipped with the lightweight BOA² locking system. Thanks to the two BOAs, the shoes fit perfectly around the foot by tightening the buttons. This ensures a precision fit and prevents bottlenecks. The outsole is made entirely of 3k carbon with an integrated ventilation system that allows perspiration but does not let moisture in. The upper breathes very well due to the strategically placed perforations. The upper, together with the reinforced heel cup, ensures a comfortable yet tight racing fit.

100: Brewing Summit Keynote LIVE
What happens at the intersection of art and science in brewing? The Brewing Summit's keynote speaker is widely recognized for the highly imaginative and experimental beers that he has produced in his 22+ years in the brewing business. While he considers himself more avant-garde in his approach to brewing, he has long understood the role of perspective and great fundamental science as being an integral part of the flavors he chases as he knows, those who ignore the science of brewing are destined to fail. Join Tomme as he discusses his brewery operations and how art and science work together in tandem to produce world-class beers.

TotalEnergies 24 Hours of Spa launches official poster and timetable, confirms fans will attend
Eye-catching new poster by illustrator Guillaume Lopez revealed ahead of 2021 edition
Full timetable and support series also confirmed
Fans to return to Spa for 29 July-1 August event, further details to follow next week
The build-up to this year's TotalEnergies 24 Hours of Spa has reached an important milestone with the launch of the official poster and confirmation of a full timetable for the 29 July–1 August event.
For a third year in succession the poster has been created by renowned French illustrator Guillaume Lopez, whose instantly identifiable style has become closely linked with the Belgian endurance classic. Lopez honed his craft during several years working on the iconic French comic Michel Vaillant, an aesthetic that can be seen in his bold use of colour and vivid depiction of speed.
Set against a multi-layered backdrop that is unmistakably Spa, the poster's central subject is the #50 Mercedes-AMG GT3. The HubAuto-run car will contest this year's race in a special livery that celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Mercedes-Benz 300 SEL, which by taking a class win and second overall in 1971 helped to establish the AMG brand as a major player in international motorsport. The new name and visual identity of the event's long-standing partner and title sponsor, TotalEnergies, are also displayed prominently.
Alongside the official poster, the timetable for this year's TotalEnergies 24 Hours of Spa has also been revealed. Track activity begins on Tuesday 27 July with the Bronze Test, a three-hour session that begins at 14:55 and provides bronze-graded drivers with a chance to find their marks on the daunting 7km circuit.
The action ramps up on Thursday with significant running for the full field of TotalEnergies 24 Hours of Spa contenders. A 90-minute Free Practice will get underway at 10:50, followed by a one-hour Pre-Qualifying session at 15:45. This will set the stage for the main Qualifying at 20:50, which decides the 20 Super Pole contenders and establishes the starting order for the remainder of the grid. The day ends with a 90-minute Night Practice, providing competitors with vital running in darkness.
Friday evening traditionally produces the quickest laps of the event and begins at 19:10 with a 30-minute warm-up, which is open to the full field. Then, at 20:30, the Super Pole session will see the fastest 20 cars battle for top spot, with just one driver from more than 200 entrants rising above the rest to secure pole.
Meanwhile, a host of high-level support series will also take their turn on the circuit. The 2021 line-up includes familiar categories such as Lamborghini Super Trofeo and the GT4 European Series, while TCR Europe continues following its maiden appearance last term. There will be event more tin-top action in the Ardennes this year, with slots for Clio Cup Europe and the new Championnat de France FFSA Tourisme – TC France. All five series will stage an opening race before Super Pole on Friday, while their second contest will come on Saturday.
There will also be a new addition to the programme this year with the very first appearance of the Fanatec Esports GT Pro Series as part of the TotalEnergies 24 Hours of Spa build-up. Organised by SRO Motorsports Group in partnership with Fanatec, Assetto Corsa Competizione and AK Informatica, the groundbreaking concept will see real-world drivers tackle a virtual race in the on-site Fanatec Esports Arena. Qualifying takes place at 15:05 on Friday, followed immediately by a one-hour contest on Assetto Corsa Competizione in which points towards the overall and Silver Cup teams' championships are up for grabs.
With the preparation complete, all focus will shift to the biggest race on the calendar: the 73rd TotalEnergies 24 Hours of Spa, which will set off at 16:30 on Saturday 31 July and conclude at the same time on Sunday 1 August. SRO Motorsports Group is pleased to confirm that, following consultation with local authorities and Circuit Spa-Francorchamps, fans will be allowed to attend this year's event in accordance with COVID-19 protocols. Tickets are set to go on sale next week, when detailed information regarding rules and ticketing will also be communicated.
Meanwhile, the TotalEnergies 24 Hours of Spa will once again enjoy extensive live coverage via a host of online options, allowing fans to experience the race via free-to-view, non-geo-blocked streams featuring either French or English commentary. These will be available through the usual variety of platforms, including the event's official website and Facebook page and on the GT World YouTube channels.
The headline race of both Fanatec GT World Challenge Europe Powered by AWS and Intercontinental GT Challenge Powered by Pirelli, the TotalEnergies 24 Hours of Spa is the acknowledged benchmark in long-distance GT racing. The 2021 edition comes two decades after the successful switch to GT rules in 2001 and will mark 10 years since the popular GT3 platform was first adopted in 2011.
