The vn 7.3 installation is under /home/polaris_lds1/earhum/vn7.3. The subdirectory HGPKG2 holds all the data files necessary to run the standard HadGEM3 job xidef (the same job on HECToR is xeozb). The various other subdirectorties hold control data for the model, and data to run xideh (a copy of xfvgc).
UM vn 7.3 requires the inclusion of override files to correctly set compiler and linker options. Navigate to model selection→ compile and modifications→ UM user override files and include /home/grenville/umui_jobs/overrides/polaris_7.3_machine and /home/grenville/umui_jobs/overrides/polaris_7.3_file in the tables User machine overrides and User file overrides respectively.
Navigate to model selection → input/output control and resources → job submission, resources and resubmission pattern Choose the option 'qsub' for SGE(SGI) for the submission method. The Job memory limit is not relevant (all jobs currently request the default memory/core of 4GB).
Navigate to model selection→ compile and modifications→ UM user override files and include /home/grenville/umui_jobs/overrides/polaris_7.3_machine and /home/grenville/umui_jobs/overrides/polaris_7.3_file in the tables User machine overrides and User file overrides respectively.
There are several places in the code where hard wired absolute paths are used, namely, in the routines ukca_read_aerosol.F90 and ukca_phot2d.F90. We have merely patched the code to point to files on Polaris.
The vn 8.4 installation is under /home/polaris_lds1/earhum/vn8.4.
Copy the UM Setup section from /home/polaris_lds1/ldsgl/.bashrc to your .bashrc. In order to use vn 8.4 utilities make sure you source .umsetvars_8.4.
Navigate to model selection → FCM configuration → FCM options for atmosphere and reconfiguration.
in the User Modifications table. The naming of this necessary branch may change in future - this branch contains a script change needed to ensure CRUNS behave correctly.
Navigate to model selection → FCM configuration → FCM extract directories and output levels . Experience will help determine the most convenient places where the extracted model should reside. Explicitly set UM_ROUTDIR to be your user directory on /nobackup, however, note that files left in this directory may be marked for deletion in accordance with Polaris data policy.
Navigate to model selection → user information and submit method → general details Set User-id to be your Polaris id. The Tic Code is not relevant to Polaris. We have not tested end of run email notification.
Navigate to model selection → user information and target machine → job submission method Choose the option 'qsub' for SGE(SGI) for the submission method, enter polaris.leeds.ac.uk for the Host name, select Change machine config file and enter sgi-intel-polaris.
Navigate to model selection → input/output control and resources → user hand edit files and include /home/grenville/umui_jobs/hand_edits/polaris_8.4.1 in the Hand edits list. This is currently necessary to mange the way Polaris handles the module command in the k shell and selects the mvapich2 module to ensure that IO servers function correctly. Future work should see the need for this to disappear.
This job uses the UM I/O servers which require that the model run with at least two OpenMP threads. We have successfully run the model using mvapich2 as the mpi implementation which supports multi-threaded mpi. The model runs with single threading with both openmpi and intemlpi mpi implemantations - in these cases OpenMP code directives are obeyed but the model can not support I/O servers.

Hey all. Well it's official, I think. I think I hate my home airport, Melbourne's Tullamarine. There are plenty of reasons not to like it, but after my last trip there, I'm pretty much fed up.
There are two pressing issues with Melbourne's main international airport. The first is the distance. Having to get there last week in morning peek hour traffic (we left home at 8am) we met slow, near stopping traffic all to get into the city. After that, admittedly it was pretty much smooth sailing to the airport, but nevertheless the airport is around 30km from the centre of town, and you are destined to pay tolls.
Apparently there is another way to the airport on non-toll roads, however it's likely to take you a log time and is mostly improvising along back streets. In short, I have never ever heard of someone taking it.
The toll roads mean it costs significantly to get to or from the airport. If you take a taxi, well, to get to southern or eastern suburbs, or far enough out west you are looking at a least a hundred bucks. Which is pretty much insane. Uber are fractionally cheaper (I used Uber a couple of years ago and it was still in excess of $80). Public transport? There is the Skyrail bus, which services south-eastern suburbs. There's another that does the east and there's one to Southern Cross Railway Station in the CBD.
That's at least $19 but it is the cheapest way to go about it. And that puts you on the road, which is subject to the traffic, oh and it's also subject to the interminable roadworks. Wherever you are in Melbourne, you can be sure that you are not far from roadworks. The freeway to the airport is almost always slowed down with lanes closed no matter what time of day it is.
Yep, a train link to Melbourne airport does not exist. It's been a subject of major annoyance for Melburnians for as long as I can remember. Political parties promise to build a rail link, or look into it, or plan it, but here we are at the end of 2018 and we are no closer to having the thing. There are plans again in the pipeline, and we will see if they ever materialise into something solid, but it would take years to build (unless this was Japan and it would be up by the end of the week). Money has been promised by Federal and State Governments, but personally this is one regular traveller who does not plan to hold his breath!
But even if it were to happen, it would not solve the biggest problem of Melbourne Airport. And that is simply capacity. It's not big enough for the number of passengers that go through it every day, week, month and year. And this is despite them building a special terminal for lowcost carriers Tiger and Jetstar.
Last week the chaos of checking in for Virgin Airlines when flying to the Sunshine Coast, in the Domestic terminal, was ridiculous. They have these newish machines for checking in and printing boarding passes and bag tags. Which took all of a minute or two. Which is great, so tags put on the luggage we were checking in. Then we had to line up for bag-drop.
It took around 35 minutes to drop our bags there. Consider they advise you to get to the airport 45 to 60 minutes early for domestic flights. (I think 45 minutes is if you have done online check in). 35 minutes of 45 minutes to drop your bag? That leaves you with 10 minutes to do your security scan, rush to the gate and hope they haven't shut it. Of course, most people get there with more than an hour up their sleeve, but nevertheless.
Just finding the check-in area was a task and a half too, the signs were a little unclear where exactly the arrow was meant to be pointing. And it feels as densely filled with people as any airport I have been to. Well, okay Istanbul and Dubai in certain places felt worse. But not before heading into security.
And it's the same for international departures too. You feel cramped and stifled, it feels like the check-in area has been squashed into an area too narrow to contain it. I think one reason is that a few years ago now they had to expand the passport check and x-ray/security area to include new full scan machines and extra security. Which is a sign of the times we live in I guess, but even so after the expansion, if anything it takes longer to get through security than ever before. Two years ago it was well over an hour. You get to check-in over three hours early, but to your gate barely in time for them to board you!
Lesson – allow extra time at Melbourne Airport when flying out! And allow extra time to get to the airport! In short, you can easily lose half a day if you're flying out internationally just getting to the airport and getting to your gate on time!
And so, rant over. Sooner or later they are going to need to properly expand the airport somehow, or build another. I think I heard there might be plans to build an international airport in the outer eastern suburbs area. I'm not sure. I worry because the day is coming where the balloon is just going to burst.
Thanks for reading. Have you flow through Melbourne's Tullmarine Airport, and if so, how did you find it? Please do comment, and as always – May the Journey Never End!
Oh man, you look so unhappy. I've never been to this airport but hope your next experience will be better!!
Thanks for the comments and the empathy Agness!
Uggg. I look at those photos and I hate the airport without having even been.
Holy christ Australia is expensive! $80 Uber?
transport in Melbourne… and Australia is pricey especially when it comes to ubers or taxis. Tullamarine is okay when arriving though, it's checking in where it can be rather chaotic. I guess the increase in people flying over the last few years has really had an impact. Thanks for reading as always!
I completely agree about the transport, but not so much about the rest of the airport – it just feels the same as pretty much any airport to me. Maybe a bit cleaner than Manila and Denpasar? I will give you that airports in Australia are crazy expensive, even compared to the rest of Australia. For food, drinks, socks, whatever you want to buy.
I've had some slow check-in/bag-drop experiences at Melbourne but they don't quite compare with my Gold Coast connection to Sydney a couple of years ago. I had maybe a 2-hour turnaround time to transfer from an international flight to domestic, and all the workers were half asleep and just cruising along at their own pace. They weren't particularly helpful to anyone and certainly weren't going to hurry to help people make their connecting flights. But maybe I just expected more or felt more entitled to good, even pleasant, service after the customer service in Japan. In my experience at Melbourne they're not friendly but they get the job done.
I guess it was the disorganisation more than anything and maybe this time it had more to do with the Virgin staff and systems than anything, but the last few times I've been through been extra tedious and poorly organised, and most of all cramped. Having said that, Sydney is still probably worse! I feel like despite the addition of the Tiger terminal it just doesnt handle the number of passengers it has and needs … well probably to be rebuilt. thanks for commenting!

Dyke & The Blazers - We Got More Soul
"Dyke & the Blazers were one of the first acts -- possibly the first notable act -- to play funk other than James Brown. Indeed, they often sounded like a sort of junior version of Brown and the JB's, playing songs in which the rhythms and riffs mattered more than the tune. Similarly, vocalist Dyke Christian sang/grunted words that mattered more for the feeling and rhythm than the content. Their best-known track, "Funky Broadway, " was covered for a bigger hit by Wilson Pickett, though Dyke & the Blazers got a few more R&B hits before Dyke was shot to death in 1971.
Arlester "Dyke" Christian was born in Buffalo, NY, in 1943, and by the mid-'60s was singing and playing bass with the O'Jays backing band, the Blazers. Dyke and some of the other Blazers were stranded in Phoenix when the O'Jays' couldn't afford to bring them back to Buffalo, and the Blazers based themselves in Phoenix, having no means to travel elsewhere. Their "Funky Broadway" was released on the Phoenix indie Artco in late 1966, and picked up for distribution by the L.A.-based Original Sound label. It became a sizable R&B hit (and a small pop one), and may have been the first record to use the word "funky" in the title.
As with James Brown, Dyke & the Blazers' records sold far better, and charted much better, with the R&B audience than the pop one, which was for the most part unaware of the band. In the late '60s and early '70s, Dyke and the band issued a series of gut-bucket funk singles with scratchy guitar riffs, greasy organ, hoarse vocals, and jazzy horns; all traits that James Brown and his band had developed, admittedly. But Dyke did the style well (right down to issuing several two-part singles), although not with a great deal of variety. For some of his sessions, Dyke recorded in Los Angeles with musicians who would later play in the Watts 103rd Street Band (guitarist Al McKay would later be in Earth, Wind & Fire). According to Original Sound producer Art Laboe, most of the singles came from 15-to-20-minute jams that were edited down to a length that could fit on the 45 RPM format.
Dyke & the Blazers had Top Ten R&B singles with "We Got More Soul" and "Let a Woman Be a Woman -- Let a Man Be a Man" in 1969, and smaller sellers with "Uhh, " "You Are My Sunshine," and "Runaway People." Dyke Christian, sadly, was fatally shot on the street in Phoenix on March 13, 1971. "

'Game of Thrones' Creators Wonder What If the South Had Won and Slavery Was Legal
By Jeremy Lambert July 20, 2017
Do you love Games of Thrones? Well, you're definitely going to love Confederate. What's Confederate? It's the new series from Game of Thrones creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss.
But, instead of killing kings and queens, they're going to kill blacks. No, I'm not joking about this. Here's the plot from Variety:
"Confederate" chronicles the events leading to the Third American Civil War. The series takes place in an alternate timeline, where the southern states have successfully seceded from the Union, giving rise to a nation in which slavery remains legal and has evolved into a modern institution. The story follows a broad swath of characters on both sides of the Mason-Dixon Demilitarized Zone – freedom fighters, slave hunters, politicians, abolitionists, journalists, the executives of a slave-holding conglomerate and the families of people in their thrall.
To recap: two white guys who love to write murder, rape, and general shock scenes are going to make a show where the premise is "slavery is legal."
This is the ultimate heat check. Benioff and Weiss are so bulletproof due to the success of Game of Thrones that they pitched a show based on slavery being legal. AND IT WORKED! If the producers and writers of The Office pitched this show, they'd never work in Hollywood again. And The Office is one of the best shows ever.
On the bright side, plenty of black actors are about to come into work. All they have to do is be comfortable with playing a slave. But not a historic slave who eventually becomes free. A slave where it's a modern institution.

Losers can still win
When a client selects another firm, learn why and stay in touch. Who knows, you just might win the next round.
Think back to your childhood. Did you play on a sports team that had a tough year? For me it was the 1985 Iowa Electric baseball team in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. We were a rag-tag team of 10-, 11-, and 12-year-old boys whose passion for baseball did not quite match our developing skill level; we lost 15 straight games that year.
Our baseball skills did improve and we eventually won games as the years progressed with different teams. The summer we lost every game, however, taught us all humility, determination, and that your true character shows in defeat.
As in baseball, there are wins and losses in the competitive AEC market. It's important to celebrate victories and learn from defeats.
Architect Steve Davis recently shared a story that inspired this article. A client went through the request for proposal and interview process, and selected another design team that included a resident of the community. Steve got a debriefing and sent a thank you for the opportunity and feedback, and wished them the best going forward.
Steve kept tabs on the project as it progressed and made quarterly calls to the client. One day Steve received a meeting request to talk about taking over the project, which had stalled. The client hired Steve's team and they are the trusted partner to this day.
When you lose, be gracious and consider these activities:
Learn more about the client's decision. Respectfully debrief your client to understand the "why" behind the decision. You were most likely a "close second" to the winning firm. Find out what drove the client's selection.
Thank them for the debriefing. Send a handwritten note or letter. Personal communications like these are rare and they will stand out. Include appreciation for what you learned from the debriefing and wish them the best.
Remain curious and stay in the game. Set up a Google alert to monitor news coverage of the client and project. Is the other design firm doing a study? Will you have an opportunity to pursue subsequent projects? How did the bond referendum vote turn out? Situations can change quickly. Stay connected.
Keep in touch. Face-to-face is best on a quarterly or semi-annual basis. After all, hopefully you've developed a relationship with the client that goes beyond a single opportunity. Be creative about opportunities to meet and always offer value when you can (e.g. funding ideas, bond referendum strategies, etc.).
Steve could have written off the client that selected the team with the hometown talent. Instead he listened to feedback, thanked them, monitored progress, and kept in touch. Even though he was six hours away, Steve built a relationship and eventually became their trusted advisor who helped move the project forward.
Even in defeat you can build relationships that lead to new business. Your true self shows after you lose an interview or proposal. Show the client what you're made of and stay on the field to win the next one.

From the first Maltese Cross Cuffs that launched Verdura's career in the 1930s, a number of variations have been born. The Sunburst Cuff, with its graphic central motif, is an equally bold alternative to the heraldic symbol of the Medieval Knights of Malta.
An avid student of the decorative arts, Verdura was familiar with the historic iconography of the sun and experimented with the symbolism throughout his jewelry designs. Depicted here in yellow gold and black enamel, the sunburst motif provides a dynamic backdrop for the precious gems that adorn it.

More than 100 workers for a variety of roles at Rio Tinto's bauxite operations in Far North Queensland are being sought.
Rio Tinto has launched a recruitment drive for positions at its existing Weipa mines at Andoon and East Weipa and the Amrun project south of the Embley River between Weipa and Aurukun.
The aim is to build a workforce that is capable of supporting Rio's developing site at Amrun.
The Amrun project involves a range of infrastructure to support mining including a processing plant and port near Boyd Bay, a dam, roads and tailings storage facility. To transport workers from Weipa to the mine, a ferry terminal will be put on Hey River.
Rio is seeking workers for electrical and instrumentation technician positions, operators, plant fitters and maintenance.
According to Rio, Amrun roles will start immediately while others will gradually take effect between 2018 and 2019, with Rio aiming to ship first bauxite from Amrun during the first quarter of 2019.
Daniel van der Westhuizen, Rio Tinto Weipa Operations general manager, said it was an exciting time for the company to offer a large array of roles that would ultimately support the bauxite operations.
"Its an exciting time for our people, business and community with Amrun becoming part of a strong and sustainable future for the region," van der Westhuizen said.
According to the miner, Weipa will remain as the residential base for the three mines in the region as Andoom and East Weipa employees will return home after every shift.

Data loss can be catastrophe for any company. Sensitive customer information such as client social security numbers, addresses and phone numbers could become the property of a hacker in a matter of minutes. At Quikteks, we provide several easy solutions to help your business prevent data loss from happening to your business.
One of the core benefits to utilizing virtual servers is that they are image based. If a physical server is destroyed by human error or a natural disaster, the information placed on that particular server could be lost forever. Our virtualization services can also help to encrypt communications on your network. This will ensure that no one can see any information that is being transferred from one person to another on the network.
If something does happen to your data, it is critical that you have a plan to retrieve your files as soon as possible. A reputable IT team normally has a data recovery system in place which can be activated within minutes after a natural disaster or human error erases your information. To add a layer of convenience, the plan should be able to be carried out remotely from anywhere in the world. This saves a great deal of time because your IT staff is not required to be on site. Additionally data should be stored both locally and offsite using cloud storage.
Employees should be trained to use their computers in a way that will minimize or prevent data loss from occurring. For example, knowing how to eliminate the possibility of a virus or other Trojans from being uploaded onto their machines is crucial. They should also know to bring their computer to the IT department or report the issue via email as soon as they notice suspicious activity.
The simplest way to prevent an emergency is to back up your data as you go along. It is a lot easier for someone to hit a few buttons to restore their system than it is to have to reboot an entire server. Therefore, make sure that everyone is aware of the system restore feature on their computer and how to use it if a virus is installed accidentally or if the computer is running slower than normal.
Data loss is never a pleasant experience, but the good news is that you can avoid a major headache by taking precautions before an emergency strikes. By training your employees properly, hiring a competent IT team and making contingency plans now, your company can significantly reduce the risk of data loss and the negative consequences which stem from it.

Fake empathy.
Posted on September 5, 2017 by luckyotter
Most US Presidents, following a national disaster like Harvey, have spent time with survivors — comforting and talking to them, serving them food, and sharing hugs and even tears.
Donald Trump not only took several days to visit the people of Houston after Harvey left it devastated, when he arrived there, he spent more time bragging about the size of the crowds (as if he was at one of his rallies instead of at shelters where he had a captive audience) and what a "huge storm" Harvey had been. He talked more about how Texas could handle things because it was so strong than he did actually offering words of support and comfort to its people. Most outrageous of all, he told the survivors — people who had lost everything and were staying in crowded shelters — that they seemed "happy."
Sure, he provided some good "optics" — picking up and kissing babies and pretending to serve food to the survivors — but his words to the people who were his captive audience were hollow, inappropriate to the occasion, and extremely awkward. He also didn't miss an opportunity to diss the media and Hillary Clinton.
The mainstream media gave him a pass, fawning all over him for having at least tried to act presidential, when they should have been calling him out on his inappropriate, callous, and outrageous words of "support" to these devastated people.
This morning he decided to put an end to the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program (DACA), an Obama-era program that ensured that young people who were brought over from other countries as children — a program that required its recipients to either be working or attending school. By ending DACA, he doomed these productive, intelligent young people to deportation back to the countries their parents brought them from (with a six month delay). That would mean that these kids and young adults, the vast majority of who are high achievers and are benefiting our economy, would lose everything. They would be stranded in foreign lands they couldn't remember, in some cases knowing absolutely no one. For a party that calls itself "pro-family," his heartless and cruel decision will tear families apart and destroy lives.
Trump also had a history of failing to acknowledge Americans who have died in tragic accidents, most recently the 12 sailors who died in an accident on a Coast Guard ship. Not one word was ever mentioned about those sailors, but this was far from the first incident in which Trump — unlike past presidents — just didn't seem to care.
Watching Trump, I believe he not only has no empathy, he also has no conscience. That to me indicates a sociopathic, not merely narcissistic, personality. He actually seems to delight in causing pain and suffering. I do think he is in fact sadistic, and enjoys pushing policies that will traumatize and hurt people.
When he talked about Harvey, he seemed almost gleeful over how "big" and "powerful" the storm was. He seemed almost proud of it and acted like the Houston survivors should be proud of it too, as if it were some national monument or sports record. I think he could relate to the storm. He can relate to anything that's powerful and destructive and destroys lives, because destruction and chaos is the only thing he understands.
Now he's traumatizing the entire country by playing chicken with an equally unhinged narcissistic sociopath using nuclear weapons. Nuclear war is a real possibility. We are in grave danger of annihilation. But it's just a game to these two — and we are pawns in their game. We are expendable because we aren't people; we are merely objects to be played or discarded at whim. Trump's ego is much more important than human life, and he is willing to kill us all to save his ego.
A friend told me her young daughter comes home everyday crying because she's so afraid of nuclear war. She's just 12, and can't sleep. She can't concentrate at school and is withdrawn and depressed. My friend told me she has had to send her daughter to a therapist to try to address this trauma. But this girl isn't alone. Many people are being traumatized by this president's actions and threats, but he will never care. Nor will he stop his destructive and dangerous behavior.
Going back to Harvey, Joel Osteen, the multimillionaire Prosperity Gospel preacher who holds his church services in a huge stadium, refused to open the stadium to flood survivors until he was finally shamed into it. He held a service to pray for the survivors– and passed around a collection plate for donations to the cause — even though the people at the service were the survivors themselves! Who does that?
Trump's evangelical "spiritual advisers" offered only "thoughts and prayers" to the flood survivors– not any real tangible help such as money, food, clothing, or time spent comforting families. Of course, there's nothing wrong with praying for people, but when "thoughts and prayers" are used as a substitution for any real help, they are as meaningless as a Hallmark card.
I've noticed this is something narcissists will do in lieu of offering any real help. They will condescendingly say, "I will pray for you," or promise you they will send their "thoughts and prayers." Another thing they will do is offer you phony and hollow platitudes, slogans, and sayings in place of actually offering you a listening ear, compassionate advice, or any real empathy. There's a huge emotional disconnect — they can't relate to you with any depth or as a person with real feelings. Instead, they try to mollify you with a few canned words printed on a card or a meme — and then put a guilt trip on you if you aren't grateful for their lame and shallow efforts at "comfort."
They also victim-shame. They airily tell you your life would be better if you just acted more happy, smiled more, or acted more positive. Now sure, there's a place for positive thinking, and I agree that positive people tend to draw in more positive things in life (I have seen this work for myself). However, there is a limit to this. There are times such an attitude is just plain callous and insensitive, a way of dismissing the very real needs of people who have suffered misfortune through no fault of their own. Narcissists absolve themselves of any responsibility or having to offer any real help by insidiously blaming the victim by telling them "if only you were more happy/positive/smiled more, etc. "
During his sermon for Harvey survivors, Osteen told the people — most who had just lost everything they owned — not to play the victim. I'm sorry, but how are people who have just lost everything they owned playing the victim? They are victims, and as such, they should be showered with real compassion, not condescending platitudes about positive thinking. They should also not be expected to donate to their own cause (especially when Osteen himself owns a 15 million dollar home and is one of the wealthiest men in the country) and most of these people had no access to cash or their bank accounts.
I think this conscienceless, heartless administration has been especially hard emotionally on people who have suffered abuse at the hands of people like them and also on people who are empaths and very sensitive to their spiritual darkness.

Even when he is somehow persuaded to utter words of empathy he sounds as though either they taste bad or he sounds dead. He clearly feels and means none of it. Its not about him. And that creep Osteen – no words.

It don't think Trump's a sadist. He's an opportunist of sorts, just not in the typical politician way. Not beholden to party…or principle.
He has no moral center whatsoever.

Videocon announces USD193m 4G rollout plan
Videocon Telecom has unveiled plans to invest more than INR12 billion (USD192.56 million) in its 4G network over the next three years, with plans to roll out coverage to 29 cities in three circles, Uttar Pradesh East, Uttar Pradesh West and Bihar. The Economic Times quotes the cellco's CEO and director Arvind Bali as saying: 'Our strategy now is to take the first mover advantage on data and do what we couldn't do on voice having missed the bus. This will also give us the distinction of being the first telco to offer 4G Frequency Division Duplex Long Term Evolution (FDD-LTE) services on 1800MHz in the country.' The network rollout is to be broken down into three stages, the first of which will cover six cities, whilst phases two and three will see deployments in twelve and eleven cities respectively.

BORN: 04, April 1960 | Ibadan, Nigeria
Jump To: Life Story | Family | Trivia | Personal Quotes | Filmography
Hugo Wallace Weaving was born on April 4, 1960 in Nigeria, to English parents Anne (Lennard), a tour guide and teacher, and Wallace Weaving, a seismologist. Hugo has an older brother, Simon, and a younger sister, Anna, who both also live and work in Australia. During his early childhood, the Weaving family spent most of their time traveling between Nigeria, Great Britain, and Australia. This was due to the cross-country demands of his father's job in the computer industry. Later, during his teens, Hugo spent three years in England in the seventies attending Queen Elizabeth's Hospital School in Bristol. There, he showed early promise in theater productions and also excelled at history, achieving an A in his O-level examination. He arrived permanently in Australia in 1976 and finished his education at Knox Grammar School, Sydney. He graduated from NIDA (National Institute of Dramatic Art), a college well-known for other alumni such as Mel Gibson and Geoffrey Rush, in 1981. Since then, Hugo has had a steadily successful career in the film, television, and theater industries. However, he has illustrated that, as renowned as he is known for his film work, he feels most at home on stage and continually performs in Australian theater productions, usually with the Sydney Theater Company. With his success has also come extensive recognition. He has won numerous awards, including two Australian Film Institute Awards (AFI) for Best Actor in a Leading Role and three total nominations. The AFI is the Australian equivalent of an Academy Award, and Hugo won for his performances in Proof (1991) and The Interview (1998). He was also nominated for his performance in The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert (1994). He garnered the Best Acting prize for The Interview (1998) at the Montreal Film Festival in 1998 in addition to his AFI Award and, that same year, won the Australian Star of the Year. More recently, roles in films such as The Matrix trilogy as Agent Smith and The Lord of the Rings trilogy as Lord Elrond have considerably raised his international profile. His famous and irreplaceable role in The Matrix movies have made him one of the greatest sci-fi villains of the Twenty-first Century. With each new film, television, or theatrical role, Hugo continues to surpass his audience's expectations and remains one of the most versatile performers working today. He resides in Australia and has two children with partner Katrina Greenwood. Though Hugo and Katrina have never married, they've been a committed couple for over 25 years; while Hugo was quoted as saying marriage "petrified" him in the 1990s, by middle of the following decade he said he no longer felt that way, and that he and Katrina have toyed with the idea of marrying "when we're really old".
Graduated from the National Institute of Dramatic Art (NIDA).
His parents and baby Hugo left Nigeria before he was one year old.
Children with Katrina Greenwood: Harry Weaving (b. 1989) and Holly Weaving (b. 1993).
His father worked in the computer industry and moved around a lot. Hugo spent his childhood in South Africa and England before finally settling in Australia.
Sister Anna-Jane Weaving had a brief singing career in Paris, France in the mid-1980s.
Nominated for the 2005 Helpmann Award for Best Male Actor in a Supporting Role in a Play for his performance in "Hedda Gabler".
[on filming The Matrix Reloaded (2003)] I was on top of Keanu Reeves, he was on his back and I was on my trunk, and I was breathing down his neck for hours and hours. It was... very erotic.
I do love working in Australia. Generally, the budgets are smaller, the crews are smaller and generally you work at a fast pace. That gives you energy. At the end of the day, you've worked a lot but you don't feel tired. On the big ones, you sit around a lot. That really saps your energy.
I think I said something like The Interview (1998) was the most fulfilling experience from an acting point of view. And it definitely was. That was a combination of working with a director who was very open and very prepared, and ... working with [co-star] Tony Martin - just sitting opposite him every day, which is pretty much what we did because the film is essentially a dialog between two men.

Swift hoping to offer tough test to his former side
Midfielder previews visit to Griffin Park
Reading will visit Griffin Park for the final time on Saturday, ahead of the West London club's move to their new home next summer.
And midfield man John Swift, who previously represented Brentford as a Chelsea loanee before joining the Royals, knows that the Bees will provide a stern opposition – especially off the back of a 3-0 win at Wigan last time out.
But Reading also registered a 3-0 win of their own – at home against Luton – and the midfield man is sure that the Royals will be able to give as much as they get.
"It'll be another tough game," said Swift. "They are a good team and they had a good result before the international break as well.
"So it's a game that we'll go into knowing that it'll be tough. But hopefully we can make it tough for them as well.
"They are a great team on their day and they can play some really good football. But we have shown that we can do the same."
Brentford vs Reading on 23 Nov 19


The Minnesota Twins placed outfielder Taylor Motter on the seven-day disabled list with concussion-like symptoms Friday afternoon.
Motter crashed into the outfield wall Thursday during the Twins' win over the Chicago White Sox, but remained in the game.
The Twins selected the contract of Triple-A catcher and infielder Willians Astudillo to replace Motter on the 25-man roster, while right-handed pitcher Felix Jorge was designated for assignment.
Astudillo has hit .290 with 25 RBI, 12 doubles and seven home runs in 49 games with Triple-A Rochester this year and was named an International League All-Star this year.
Jorge, 24, started two games for the Twins in 2017 but had pitched just two games this year in Rookie ball on a rehab assignment.

"...the Irish equivalent of Emmylou Harris." - WASHINGTON POST
Karan Casey has long been recognized as one of the most innovative, provocative and imitated voices in Irish traditional and folk music. Singing songs charged with a sense of social responsibility in a career spanning over 25 years, Karan has released 7 solo albums as well as an album for children, a duet album with John Doyle and numerous contributions to other artists' projects. She has toured extensively throughout North America, Europe and Japan, performing with her own band as well as collaborating with such diverse musicians as James Taylor, Bela Fleck, Boston Pops Orchestra, Liam Clancy, Maura O'Connell, The Chieftains, The Dubliners, Peggy Seeger, Karen Matheson, Mick Flannery, Mícheál Ó Súilleabháin, Tim O'Brien, Solas and Lúnasa.
In 2017 Karan was Traditional Artist in Residence at University College Cork, toured the UK with the Transatlantic Sessions, performed at Glasgow's Celtic Connections, and toured in the US both with her own band and with Lúnasa, including a performance at New York's Carnegie Hall.
In 2018 Karan helped to found FairPlé which is an organization aimed at achieving fairness and gender balance for female performers in Irish traditional and folk musics. Karan recently released her new album Hieroglyphs That Tell the Tale on the Vertical Records Label. Produced by renowned Scottish producer and Bafta-nominated composer Donald Shaw, the album also features Karan's long-time musical collaborators Sean Óg Graham & Niamh Dunne (Beoga), Kate Ellis (The Crash Ensemble) and Niall Vallely (Buille). Drawing inspiration from contemporary folk writers Janis Ian, Eliza Gilkyson, Mick Flannery and Bob Dylan, the album displays Casey's impressive talent as a song writer. She is joined on vocals by some of the women singers she's long-admired, including Karen Matheson, Niamh Dunne, Pauline Scanlon, Maura O'Connell and Aoife O Donovan.
"Karan Casey's latest album is revelatory. She's always been a singer of songs that tell a story and show their muscle…. This is a strikingly three-dimensional work that stands the test of intensive and repeated listening with ease. A vivid and dazzling snapshot of Casey invincible, at the height of her powers."

Today I am so so excited to share my apartment! For the record, it's a townhouse so it will probably seem bigger than a regular apartment! We are living in a 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath. It's massive compared to what I'm used to! A lot of what you see below is inspired by Pinterest and my own personal style. I love love love how the place looks, and it feels great to come home to.
I'm sure that we will add or alter things as we go, but for now this is home and it definitely feels amazing to have a "home" that isn't a residence hall. Having the separation between school and home is so great. *The link function is not working right now, but if you need help finding something I have featured, let me know and I'll send you the link!
I am so pleased this is home and I love it here! I'm getting used to Williamsburg, but so far it's been fun, eventful, and feels very much like home!
Looks lovely and spacious !please check out mine! Followed you too.

The mother who is forbidden to breastfeed in «Disneyland» hopes to develop mentalities
The young Australian mother, who was prevented by "Disneyland Paris" park rangers from breast-feeding her child on a seat on the site, hopes the outrage sparked by her case will develop mentalities. Australian
She was so sympathetic that she cried
Disneyland posted an apology on Twitter: "We deeply regret this situation, and once again offer our sincere apologies to the mother concerned."
The young Australian mother who was prevented by Disneyland Paris park rangers from breastfeeding her child on a bench at the site is hoping the outcry from her case will lead to mental development.
Disneyland issued an apology after three security officers asked the 33-year-old, who was breastfeeding her two-month-old daughter near a game, to cover herself or use the space designated for mothers and children in the park.
"I was holding my daughter to my chest, while three people around me were scolding me for something I consider a completely normal part of life," Laura, who preferred to be given only her first name, told AFP.
"I felt completely weak and very afraid," she added.
This mother of two children told the guards that she replied "firmly enough" that she would not comply with their instructions, but they insisted.
"I asked them why such a request was made, and they said that there were other customers in the park from other cultures and religions," she said.
After the case began to be circulated on social media, last Wednesday, Disneyland Paris was satisfied at first by reminding that it "places at the disposal of mothers a child care center with appropriate and comfortable equipment, including breastfeeding seats."
French Citizenship Minister Marlene Schiappa commented on Twitter, "Dear Disneyland Paris, breast feeding is not a crime.
Having rooms designated for that is good, but we don't decide where and when the baby will be hungry."
This prompted Disneyland to publish another apology on Twitter, saying, "We deeply regret this situation, and we once again offer our sincere apologies to the mother concerned."
"puzzle"
France occupies the penultimate position in rich countries in terms of the rate of breastfeeding, as it constitutes the exclusive source of nutrition for one in three children in them, according to data from the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), but there is no law prohibiting breastfeeding in public places. .
Laura said that the person in charge of security assured her that Disneyland Paris does not have a policy to restrict breastfeeding in public places, but the young woman still has unanswered questions.
She added, "The security personnel coming to see me suddenly is a very confusing mystery."
The Australian from Alice Springs, who has lived in France with her husband for five years, said the problem was "bigger than Disneyland" and that inappropriate remarks or suspicious looks were given to other female friends while they were publicly breastfeeding their children.
She called for "an end to these methods of stigmatizing mothers," urging people to "intervene" when they see "mothers being harassed."
She herself received the sympathy of a mother who did not know her identity.
"She sat down and started to breastfeed her baby in solidarity with me," she said.
I burst into tears, as I was touched by her kindness."
Last June, MP Fiona Lazar proposed a law imposing a fine of 1,500 euros on anyone who prevents a mother from breastfeeding her child, after reports that a mother was slapped in Bordeaux (southwest of France) for publicly breastfeeding her.
• The
young Australian was prevented by the guards of "Disney Paris" from breastfeeding her child on a park bench.
Laura: "I was holding my daughter to my chest while three people around me were scolding me for something that I consider a perfectly normal part of life."

Teampass is a collaborative password manager that runs on a LAMP stack. It offers role based access control for more granular control of who has access to certain folders or password items. It supports ldap/Active Directory and google multi factor authentication systems.
Requires community site cookbooks: openssl, mysql, database, git, php, apache2, and chef-vault cookbooks. See Attributes and Usage for more information.
node['teampass']['dbhost'] - Hostname teampass will use when communicating with a local or remote MySQL server (defaults to "localhost"). If a remote server is used you will be left to setup the database name and grants yourself.
node['teampass']['usechefvault'] - Toggle whether to use chef-vault for SSL certificate management or not. If "false" you will need to install certificates by your own means (default is "true").
node['teampass']['vaultitem'] - This is used to set the name of the encrypted data bag created and managed by chef-vault. When using wildcard certs this might be selfsigned_wildcard_ssl_cert.
node['teampass']['webserver_apache2'] - Toggle whether to install and configure Apache2 for the Teampass install or to perform no webserver installation at all (default is "true" to install Apache2). No webserver installed means it is being left to the user to install/configure some other webserver.
node['teampass']['backup_dir'] - If you use the [teampass::backup] recipe it can automatically generate snapshots of databases and Teampass files and upload them to an rsync server. Support for this comes from the [opscode-backup] cookbook which has a sensible provider for rsync based backups..
First thing read the SSL Certificates section below and get some vault items created with your preferred type of certificate.
See the 'examples/roles/teampass-server.json' file in this cookbook as a role example, copy to your roles directory, and modify as desired. Apply this 'teampass-server' role to the run_list of a node you want to apply it to.
Run chef-client to execute the teampass cookbook. If the cookbook is using chef-vault to manage certificate installation and it has errors make sure to check ithe Chef Vault section below for more details. For chef-client to converge cleanly you need to have chef-vault encrypted data bags installed in a "vault" data bag with the vaultitem attribute storing its name, and the chef client as seen from the chef server needs to have permission to decrypt the vault item. Work through these issues until you can run chef-client without error.
At this point you have a working apache2 webserver and a mysql database and user with permissions to do things to that database but no schema or data is loaded into the database yet. Go to http://TEAMPASSURL/install/install.php to begin the web based installation.
When you get to "Absolute path to SaltKey" use /var/www/teampass/current/secrets if you are installing to /var/www/teampass. If the cookbook worked correctly this dir should exist and be writable by the webserver. This phase of the installation will write the SaltKey php config into this secrets directory.
Once you are logged in as admin/admin create some folders, add a role, and adjust the general settings as needed. Once the basic installation is done the files/settings on disk for the local installation and teampass mysql database will not be managed by this cookbook.
If you already have commercial certificates setup override_attributes in a role for the following attributes: [:teampass][:vaultitem], and possibly [:teampass][:sslcertfile], [:teampass][:sslkeyfile], and [:teampass][:sslchainfile]. With the vaultitem name you should read the Chef Vault section below and learn about importing your certs into a chef vault encrypted data bag and how to manage access to it.
If you do not already have certs the sensu team had a great shell script and openssl.cnf for generating a Certificate Authority and self-signed certificate that I adopted and extended with wildcard domains and Subject Alternate Names (SAN, multiple domains and subdomain support). Generating ssl certificates for each server and/or service is tedious so instead use one that can be deployed everywhere that can be deployed quickly and without financial cost. If its compromised or you want to change certificates periodically just update the vault item and have chef-client deploy the new certificates.
To generate a new CA and wildcard cert edit examples/ssl/ssl_certs.sh and examples/ssl/certificates_ca/openssl.cnf (especially around words like 'example' and 'Example'), and then run ssl_certs.sh generate to generate a CAcert/server certificate/key. This will produce a selfsigned_wildcard_ssl_cert.json file with all three items which can consumed by chef-vault (see Chef Vault section below), or encrypted/unencrypted data bags in your own wrapper cookbook.
If you do use ssl_certs.sh to generate certs be sure to copy the public CAcert file examples/ssl/certificates_ca/cacert.pem some place safe and maybe attach it to an internal wiki page. It can be imported into web browsers like Firefox and Chrome as an "authority" and this completes the browser SSL chain of trust verification check so the browser bar turns green and doesn't display warnings to the user and requiring manual acceptance of an untrusted certificate.
I think its the best chef pattern for secrets management right now. You don't have to copy keyfiles to servers to be used with encrypted data bags and instead use the client keys of servers/people on the chef server. You can control who can access the credentials and chef-vault knife commands + json files is a workable framework for automating password changes for me.
'gem install chef-vault' to install it. Probably a good idea to read some chef vault documentation or web sites but I'll include a few quick tips below.
Use some other list of users or scope of servers as you see fit. Note that you can always 'knife data bag list' and 'knife data bag show' commands around the vault you will notice for each vault item 2 data bags are created. The one with _keys in the name always shows the list of users and servers with permissions to decrypt the chef vault data.
Gotcha #1: Expect chef-client runs on new servers to fail! Because chef vault stores a list of clients and servers, when a new server is added you need to update that client list to include it with a 'knife encrypt update'. My hope is this will get better in time. This is a 'chicken before egg' problem right now.
With the above configuration an ldap authentication request is sent as uid=myusername,ou=People,dc=domain,dc=com which works for one of my configurations. Enable debugging on your LDAP client/server to troubleshoot this further.
Unfortunately the first time a user logs in they will not be a members of any roles. Give new users a default password, login to teampass once as them to create the local account stub, then with an admin account in the webui grant that user membership to the appropriate roles as you see fit, and they can change their password to a personal one through some other means (no support for Teampass password changes modifying ldap).
Set the [:teampass][version] attribute as an override_attribute in a role like examples/roles/teampass-server.json to the desired version, upload it, and run chef-client on your Teampass server. This will install the new files to a different directory and updates the 'current' symlink to point at the new version so your web browser then tracks the new version.
Run a mysqldump to save your data. We will be running database schema updates shortly and its a good idea to get a snapshot in case we need to roll back to the old version which should be left behind.
Copy includes/settings.php and secrets/secrets/sk.php from the old Teampass version to the new version. Also go through the upload directory to see if you need to copy any of those files over. Take care to maintain file permissions and ownership when copying files over (they likely need to be writable by the apache2 user).
Go to http://TEAMPASSITE/install/upgrade.php and follow any instructions to update the database schema.
If you backup on your own be sure to keep a mysqldump of the database paired with the installation files used with it as some encrypted data in the database depends on a SALT value set in secrets/sk.php.
This cookbook depends on the 'opscode-backup' cookbook and allows for flexible pre/post hooks around rsync copying a local directory to an rsync server. The pre hook shell script run by a [:teampass][:backup] client generates a tarball for the 'teampass' mysql database, the 'mysql' mysql database, and all of the teampass files.
When restoring the data you probably should skip the db-mysql-#DATE.sql.gz file as chef and these cookbooks should recreate a new user and new passwords. That file is mostly captured to be thorough so we can see any mysql grants in the database if we needed to do so.

Is the "Zion Curtain" Crumbling Down Soon?
The mostly disliked and teased Utah icon, the infamous "Zion Curtain," may soon be leaving your favorite restaurant and bar.
According to the Salt Lake Tribune, a legislative bill is being pushed by New House Majority Leader Brad Wilson, R-Kaysville, that, among other proposals, is attempting to eliminate the 7-foot-tall barrier wall that prevents customers, as well as children, from viewing alcoholic drinks being prepared at the bars. "It's only a small part of the bill. But it seems like that's the one that everyone cares about," said Wilson.
According to the Tribune, Wilson admits that many of the laws in place have kept the under-age and binge drinking, as well as DUI's some of the lowest in the country. However, there have been many business complaints that have to be addressed. Wilson is hoping his proposal will address many of the concerns without destroying the progress made in the State in reference to reducing alcohol violations.
"It's time for adults to order an adult beverage without any stigma attached."
Many Utah residents also aren't keen about having to see the "Zion Curtain." In fact, a new Salt Lake Tribune-Hinckley Institute of Politics poll found that 73% of residents oppose the Zion Curtain, and only a mere 22% support it. Surprisingly, the poll claims that the opposition the unpopular feature crosses not only partisan and gender lines, but religious views as well.
Many bill proposals have been presented on this issue that have failed to bring the Curtain down. But there seems to be more support from the community this go around, according to Wilson, so he is optimistic that it will pass.

Bachelor in Sowa Rigpa Medicine(Amchi Medicine)
Sowa Rigpa is generally translated as 'the science of healing' and often used synonymously for 'Tibetan medicine'. Historically, Sowa Rigpa can be considered a borrowed term from Sanskrit, accompanied by an adopted sense of 'science', which initially signified all forms of medicine known to the Tibetan world, regardless of their place of origin. Over the centuries, Sowa Rigpa became linked to local, indigenous, and 'enskilled' practices; later, to nationalist political sensibilities; and of late to cultural belonging. Textual and ethnographic analyses and interviews with practitioners from China, India, and Nepal show how Sowa Rigpa exists at once as a marker of shared intellectual and cultural histories and forms of medical practice and as a label for a globally circulating medical system with distinct interpretations. Looking at Sowa Rigpa as operating in de- and reterritorialized global spaces makes visible how, why, and to what end modernity forgets (Connerton 2009), thereby allowing for broader conclusions applicable to other medical contexts. Traditionally the Amchis are trained under the traditional educational system either under private guru-shisya tradition or under gyud-pa (lineage) system in families in which the knowledge is passed down from father to son through generations. It takes several years to become a skillful Amchi, which requires hard theoretical and practical trainings. After finishing his/her training the trainee Amchi has to give an examination in front of the entire community in the presence of a few expert Amchis in a ceremony to confer the designation of Amchi on him/her. For higher training, those from the Indian Himalayan region as well used to go to study with reputed scholars or to any of the medical colleges in Tibet in the past. Some from these regions preferred to go to Tibet to begin their education of Sowa-Rigpa. Go to education page
