Ambatovy is committed to maximizing national employment and developing a highly skilled local workforce. Thousands of Malagasy have received construction, technical, health and safety, and administrative training. Investing in such programs ensures that Malagasy workers and managers will be able to assume positions of progressively increasing responsibility at Ambatovy.
Ambatovy's Training Department uses a hybrid approach that combines self-taught training, computer-based learning, and traditional instructor-led classes. Through this approach, employees are able to continuously develop their own skillset, thus allowing for them to advance professionally with Ambatovy.
The Ambatovy Training Center was inaugurated in Toamasina in 2010. The Center has a large, fully equipped workshop for both Operations and Maintenance training. All operators are trained by highly skilled Malagasy engineers. Maintenance subjects are taught by technical experts from Canada. These training courses prepare Malagasy workers for careers as electricians, machinists, pipefitters, welders, instrument technicians, boilermakers, and planners. Formal technical training at Ambatovy typically lasts between six and eight months.
The Training Department consists of 41 professionals including trainers, subject coordinators, and training advisors.
Ambatovy provides employees with the opportunity to further develop their knowledge and skills through additional courses in language, IT, customer service, and more. The training that many Ambatovy staff members have already received will help them step into management roles in the future.
From 2011 to 2013, Ambatovy held its Technical Excellence Program (PEXT, in French), an initiative aimed at young adults from the Toamasina area. The course consisted of 18 months of training and a two-month internship and was created for graduates, aged 17 to 22, from technical colleges in the Atsinanana Region. The course was designed to give students the necessary skills to allow them to gradually take over for experienced national staff who would, in turn, succeed foreign workers.
In 2011, the Ambatovy Leadership Development Program was also launched, which aims to give talented local employees the skills and development they need to grow and advance in their careers. To date, the ALDP has provided nearly 400 talented national employees with the skills and development they need to become leaders in the company. A Supervisory Training Program is also available to provide national employees with the supervisory skills and understanding as they prepare for positions of greater responsibility.
A third initiative was the Mentorship Program, which pairs senior personnel with less experienced employees to develop their knowledge base and expand their professional network.
Employees are required to complete general training on the following subjects: health and safety, first aid, environmental rules and regulations, labeling of hazardous material, safety documentation, and firefighting. When appropriate, neighboring community members also receive health and safety training.

Zara Aleena's killer was to be recalled to prison days before murder
The six days that cost Zara Aleena her life: Probation blunders revealed that left 'ticking timebomb' sex predator free on the streets to hunt and kill law graduate when he should have already been locked up in a cell
Zara Aleena's murderer was described as a 'ticking timebomb'
He was left free to kill Zara due to a catalogue of blunders by probation staff
A sexual predator described as a 'ticking timebomb' was left free to kill a law graduate due to a catalogue of blunders by probation staff.
Zara Aleena, 35, was walking home from a night out with friends when Jordan McSweeney leapt out of the darkness and murdered her in a frenzy of violence.
The 29-year-old thug, who had a criminal history dating back to the age of 12, had been released on licence from prison only nine days earlier.
Now in a shocking report, Chief Inspector of Probation Justin Russell has said McSweeney should have been recalled to prison six days before the attack and could have been back in his cell by the time of the murder if staff had followed procedures.
Zara Aleena (above), 35, was walking home from a night out with friends when Jordan McSweeney leapt out of the darkness and murdered her in a frenzy of violence
29-year-old thug Jordan McSweeney had a criminal history dating back to the age of 12 and had been released on licence from prison only nine days earlier
But due to a litany of errors and missed opportunities by probation staff, he was out on the streets hunting for a victim on June 26 last year.
Yesterday prisons and probation minister Damian Hinds apologised to Miss Aleena's family 'for the unacceptable failings in this case'.
The report comes a week after the watchdog highlighted failings by probation officers in the case of Damien Bendall before he murdered three children and his pregnant partner.
Mr Russell said yesterday: 'It's a core function of the Probation Service to protect the public… and they're not getting it right. It's impossible to say the public is being properly protected from the risks that people on probation pose.'
In the case of McSweeney, the thug had a history of bullying and beating up women, with one ex-girlfriend who suffered years of violence describing him as 'a ticking timebomb'. From the age of 12 he racked up 28 convictions for 69 offences including burglary, possession of a knife and assaulting police officers and members of the public while on bail.
McSweeney also had a history of threatening to stab prison inmates and staff, making weapons and taking drugs in jail, yet warnings in 15 prison logs went unheeded.
Metropolitan Police still image taken from body worn camera footage of Jordan McSweeney being arrested at 15.45 on 27 June, roughly 36 hours after the attack on Zara
A 2016 report said McSweeney admitted he was consumed by rage and 'does not know how to control it… [and] he feels it is very likely that he will offend in the future'.
Yet probation officers failed to consider him a high-risk offender and he was released from his latest prison sentence with no known address or GPS tag, despite him failing to show up for appointments including on the day of his release.
Staff should have recalled him to prison on June 20, but they waited until he had missed three appointments. There was then a delay in signing the paperwork until June 24, with his whereabouts unknown.
Less than 48 hours later McSweeney was on the prowl, following at least five other women before targeting Miss Aleena as she walked home.
He dragged her into a driveway in Ilford, east London, to sexually assault her before fleeing with her handbag, mobile phone and keys at 2.44am, leaving her fatally injured. She died hours later in hospital.
McSweeney was sentenced to life in prison with a minimum term of 38 years for her murder.
Mr Russell said he should have been considered a high risk and 'if he had, more urgent action would have been taken to recall him to prison. The Probation Service failed to do so, and he was free to commit this most heinous crime'.
Despite the errors in the case, only one member of staff faced disciplinary action. The report blamed 'unmanageable workloads made worse by high staff vacancy rates'.
Andrea Simon, of the End Violence Against Women Coalition, said Probation Service failings were 'yet another way in which the criminal justice system is catastrophically failing to protect women and girls'.
Claire Waxman, London's victims' commissioner, said the report 'paints a clear picture of a disjointed system that is struggling to properly assess risks and protect the public'.
Mr Hinds said 'immediate steps' were being taken including 'mandatory training to improve risk assessments [and] implementing new processes to guarantee the swift recall of offenders'.

Kettlebells were introduced to the American landscape going on 10 years ago, and athletes from a wide range of sports have enjoyed the supreme fitness that is achievable from the Kettlebell workout.
For any exercise regimen to be successful, the athlete must make the mind-body connection and concentrate on the movements. The mission of the kettlebell workout is quite complex requiring precise body movements. Working out with a Kettlebell results in greatly enhanced coordination and concentration. When an athlete has completed a Kettlebell workout, he/she feel both mentally and physically refreshed.
People who work out with Kettlebells report substantial and quick fitness gains. Beginners can mirror these results through concentrated and consistent effort.
The problem that most beginners face, however, is that once strength is increased, they need to go out and buy a new, heavier Kettlebell to continue the improvement. A solid steel ball with a handle is not scalable.
Enter Weider Sports with the Adjustable Kettlebell – they refer to it as the Powerbell. First, it allows the beginner to start working out with as little as 5 pounds. Since gains are made quickly, the beginner can increase the weight by 2.5 pound increments. There is no need to buy another kettlebell once the starting weight is mastered.
More Advanced users can use an Adjustable Kettlebell starting at 10 pounds, and can increase the weight by 5 pound increments up to 40 pounds.
The introduction of the adjustable Kettlebell will invite a much wider range of athlete or weekend worrier to start working out and get in fantastic shape.

Il est le petit-frère du footballeur .

Biographie

Carrière en club

CSKA Moscou
Né à Moscou dans une famille de supporters du CSKA Moscou, Chalov intègre dès 2005 l'école locale de football Iouni Dinamovets. Il est rapidement repéré par le CSKA qui le recrute dans son centre de formation dès l'année suivante. Il s'y démarque comme un des joueurs les plus prometteurs, inscrivant plus de cent buts dans les équipes de jeunes du club entre 2006 et 2016. Il prend par la suite part à la Ligue de la jeunesse lors des éditions 2015-2016 et 2016-2017, participant à un total de onze matchs pour six buts inscrits, incluant un quadruplé contre l'AS Monaco le 18 octobre 2016.

Chalov fait finalement ses débuts en équipe première lors d'un match de Coupe de Russie face au Ienisseï Krasnoïarsk le 21 septembre 2016. Il dispute son premier match de Ligue des champions deux mois plus tard face au Bayer Leverkusen et inscrit son premier but le 3 décembre face à l'Oural Iekaterinbourg en championnat. Pour sa première saison, il joue en tout dix-huit matchs pour six buts inscrits, tous en championnat, avec notamment un doublé et une passe décisive contre l'Arsenal Toula pour une victoire 3-0 le 12 mai 2017. Il est ainsi nommé meilleur espoir russe par la fédération à l'issue de la saison.

Apparaissant à trente-et-une reprises lors de la saison 2017-2018, Chalov n'inscrit son premier but que le 9 avril face au Dynamo Moscou avant d'enchaîner trois jours plus tard face à Arsenal en Ligue Europa pour son premier but en compétition européenne. Sa fin de saison est marquée par cinq autres buts en championnat, dont un triplé et deux passes décisives face à l'Arsenal Toula lors de l'avant-dernière journée du championnat, pour une victoire 6-0.

Démarrant la saison 2018-2019 en tant que titulaire, Chalov inscrit neuf buts en championnat durant la première moitié de la saison, dont un triplé contre l'Oural Iekaterinbourg, lui permettant d'être meilleur buteur à la trêve hivernale. Il dispute finalement l'intégralité des rencontres de son club en championnat, cumulant un total de quinze buts marqués, concluant notamment sur un doublé contre le Krylia Sovetov Samara lors du dernier match de la saison, ce qui lui permet de terminer meilleur buteur de la compétition et d'en être élu meilleur joueur dans la foulée.

Design and Set-up of three Laboratories at VNIINM-Bochvar Institute
In December 1994 the European Council and the European Parliament considered a proposal from the European Commission to strengthen the co-operation with the Russian Federation in the area of Nuclear Material Accountancy and Control (NMAC). The Commission Services after extensive contacts with Russian Authorities identified this as a priority area and established a comprehensive assistance programme.
This particular project contributed an essential element to the programme of the Government of the Russian Federation aimed at improving the State System for Accounting and Control (SSAC) of Nuclear Materials in the country and it was one of the first TACIS projects dealing with this issue in the RF. It addressed one of the key elements of NMAC by supporting the installation of three laboratories and equipping them with modern instrumentation dedicated to analysing the composition and the origin of the nuclear material and at conducting independent analysis for the Russian nuclear regulator (GAN-RF) as well as other organizations. The project aimed at providing assistance in improving the NMAC measurement technology in order to meet internationally accepted performance levels by transferring essential measurement instrumentation, laboratory equipment and related operational know-how.
The objective of the project was to transfer western know-how and technology in the field of measurement of samples of nuclear material for purposes of Nuclear Materials Accountancy and Control (NMAC) by assisting the Beneficiary to install qualified and suitably equipped laboratories at a central institution, the AA Bochvar All-Russia Research Institute of Inorganic Materials (VNIINM) in Moscow.
It was intended that the developed analytical capabilities would be complemented by nuclear forensic capabilities that would allow the analysis of nuclear material of unknown origin (e.g. seized from illicit trafficking) enabling the detection of its origin and intended use. In addition, a nuclear metrological laboratory would complete the suite of analytical capabilities, assuring that measurement results are of highest possible quality through the supply of reference materials and provision of quality control.
More specifically, the objectives of the project were to design, set up and assist in starting up the operation of three laboratories for:
1. Analysing samples of nuclear materials originating from Minatom for nuclear material accountancy purposes or originating from GAN for safeguards verification purposes (Analytical safeguards laboratory);
2. Analysing seized nuclear materials in order to reveal their origin (Laboratory for the identification of nuclear material of unknown origin).
3. Providing metrological support in the form of reference materials, consultancy and quality control (Nuclear metrological laboratory).
The project originally comprised 7 tasks:
Task 1: Definition of the laboratories' basic parameters - Identify the goals of each laboratory and prioritised list of instrumentation and training needs;
Task 2: Conceptual study on the implementation of the laboratories - Prepare all the necessary information for the installation of the laboratories;
Task 3: Specification on instrumentation and site – Prepare the set of technical documents describing the parameters of the required locations and performance requirements of the identified instruments. Prepare the technical specifications for the procurement of the instruments. Assist in the procurement procedure;
Task 4: Instrument acceptance tests - Prepare the test schedules and test reports
Task 5: Training of staff - Training sessions at consultant's premises. Preparation of the training schedule, training scheme for each area of training and training records of each participant;
Task 6: Operational tests of laboratories and laboratory modules; Develop the test programme and procedures, perform the tests and record the results of comprehensive operational tests of laboratory modules and the laboratory as a whole;
Task 7: Exchange of samples – Perform and report on comparative analysis of samples, measured at the new laboratories of the recipient and at the consultant's laboratory.
At an early stage in the project, the goals of each laboratory (task 1) with its related analysis capabilities (task 2) have been defined. These results allowed the required equipment to be specified in technical documents as the basis for the tender for the supply of these instruments (task 3). Furthermore Russian specialists (about 30) have been trained to operate the new equipment (task 5). These activities were completed in 2001.
The instrument acceptance tests (task 4) were only performed on manufacturer's premises for the Thermal Ionisation Mass Spectrometer (Part A). The supply contracts for the other instruments had not been placed by the end of the Consultant's contract. The operational tests (task 6) and exchange of samples (task 7) could no longer be completed under this contract due to the long delay of the equipment procurement. Operational testing had to be considered in the follow-up project R5.01/97B (see Contract 30307). In summary, the results achieved by the end date of the contract were:
Task 1 "Definition of the laboratories basic parameters": completed (September 1998).
Task 2 "Conceptual study on the implementation of the laboratories": completed (July 1999).
Task 3 "Specification on instrumentation and site":
i) Part A: Supply contract endorsed by EC on 6 February 2001.
ii) Part B, Lots 1 - 8: Technical specifications approved in December 2000.
For information on the equipment supply contracts of Part A and Part B, Lots 1 – 8 see R5.02/96B (7 separate contracts).
Task 4 "Instrument acceptance tests": The factory acceptance test were only performed for the Thermal Ionisation Mass Spectrometer (Part A) in April 2002 and since May 2002 the spectrometer was stored at the Supplier ThermoFinnigan waiting for custom clearance required for being imported to Russia.
Task 5 "Training of staff": Completed in June 1999.
Additionally a workshop on chemical separation was held, in October 2000.
The Russian Project Partner significantly contributed to the project results. The recipient institution, VNIINM, made a substantial investment for providing premises with adequate support facilities for the delicate equipment. Highly qualified specialists from VNIINM have been trained in the utilisation of the sophisticated equipment to be delivered. VNIINM's experts significantly contributed to the "Definition of the laboratories basic parameters" and the "Conceptual study on the implementation of the laboratories". All work has been implemented in close co-operation with the Consultant. Staff of VNIINM translated more than 700 pages of technical documents.
The project started on 28.11.97 and was extended in December 1999 from 24 to 46 months as the contractual activities could not be completed in the original schedule. After a second extension the Contract finished on 18.05.02. The Consultant was not able to complete the project during the contract duration due to the delay of procurement of all planned equipment (beyond the responsibility of the Consultant).

Contested Era, Blossoming Memory: Reconsidering the Early 1950s in the Present PRC
1Nov 2010 14 Feb 2014
In walking around Chinese book markets, perusing Chinese newspapers, talking to Chinese scholars and intellectuals, and just plain thinking here in the PRC, the remarkable fact emerges of the enormous gap between what is printed and discussed here and how we talk about it back in the West.
In other words, there are some thorny themes being worked out here in the PRC that seem to have totally escaped commentary by Western scholars and pundits. Perhaps readers will indulge me as I describe a tiny salient of what is going on, and what is perpetually going on, on the immense canvas of historical debate in the PRC.
A recent blossoming of popular writing about Lin Biao on the mainland seems geared to reevaluating this central (but rarely publicly reappraised) figure. Lin Biao takes part in the revolutionary narrative at various crucial points: he commanded the massive northeastern front in the Chinese Civil War (1945-1949), was the shadow ideological helmsman of the People's Liberation Army of the early and radical Cultural Revolution (1966-1969), and ended up as the would-be coup leader whose body, along with that of his wife and son, was discovered in the wreckage of a "crashed" Chinese airplane on its way to Mongolia/the USSR in 1971.
The irrepressible translators at Danwei.org have in the past undertaken some excellent discussion of Cultural Revolution-themed (and Anti-Rightist Campaign!) publications in the PRC, but as I remain behind the Great Firewall, these are not at my fingertips at present.
For their part, the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal seem hardly overly concerned with Chinese history, skewing news coverage as news organizations do, toward the modern. By contrast, the German press seems slightly better attuned to — or at least can still sell papers writing about — what is called "Erinnerrungspolitik," or the politics of memory. Although the best paper in Germany, Munich's Suddeutscher Zeitung has its gaps, at least the SdZ yesterday carried this appraisal of the Korean War, describing the changes triggered by the Chinese entry into the conflict now just over 60 years ago.
Perhaps for Germans living in a country where 84- and 85- year olds are still occasionally newly wounded by unexploded American ordinance from the Second World War, as occurred yesterday, or where the Japanese government is investing dollars into new Hiroshima monuments has had some impact, or perhaps the living memory of national division and the relative freshness of the Cold War as lived experience in Germany brings one back more easily to the ways that China controls and represses its various past achievements of violence and failings of the Confucian humanitarian impulse.
Though it hardly resembles the through-going German "Vergangenheitsbewaeltigung (Struggle over the past)" another theme that is emerging with renewed vigor from Chinese presses in the last two or three years is the struggle for law and order (and the repression of "reactionaries," small capitalists, supposed Guomindang agents, and other enemies of the Republic) in the earliest years of the PRC.
Multiple examples are described in the Party sources as valorous, including a battle in Chongqing on February 13, 1950, the day before the Sino-Soviet Alliance was signed in Moscow. This county-level conflict alone took the lives of 100 communist soldiers. This and other efforts all over western China were not merely tiny "mopping-up" operations but often fully pitched battles on territory which Mao's October 1 1949 declaration from Tiananmen four months and a week earlier had done little to functionally "liberate."
It seems likely that I am going to continue to publish on this theme as it played out and inflected the earliest years of CCP administration in northeast China, especially among ethnic Koreans. (In fact, a final "clean up operation" of my own against some proofs of my forthcoming Korean Studies article sparked the present essay, even though blogging has no measurable impact on my scholarly statistics.) But back to Western China…
Given that Chiang Kai-shek only left Chengdu on December 8, 1949, and that the process of what one scholar calls "saturating, controlling and institutionalizing frontier space" was particularly difficult and violent for the PLA in Sichuan in early 1950, it might bear asking how the process of frontier consolidation played out in eastern Tibet later that year.
Although it's hardly a fair parallel to make (and I would argue myself against reading genocidal imperatives to either the PLA in Tibet or the Japanese Imperial Army south of the Great Wall), if the Japanese army's horrific approach to Nanking in late 1937 had negative implications for the occupied population of Nanking, might not a greater appreciation for the violent repression of "bandits" in the Chinese southwest and in Sichuan in late 1950 specifically give us something of a new vantage point through which to view the PLA's broaching of force as it moved several months later from Sichuan towards Chamdo in the eastern Tibetan plateau?
In other words, bandits are bandits, no matter their ethnicity, and it seems hardly likely that the PLA took the lesson of hundreds of casualties in Sichuan lightly, or the need to resort to force in the process of consolidation in 1950. More studies of combat trauma and its effects, in any case, seem really quite necessary for we scholars to undertake when it comes to the Chinese Civil War and its multiple appendages in Korea, Tibet, and Taiwan.
Of course, official efforts to valorize the "repression of counter-revolutionaries" in the early 1950s as a movement congruent with contemporary China's obsession with law and order have not come without counter-commemoration, such as this online effort (以镇反名义杀害的部分抗日国军将领名单) which describes a large number of anti-Japanese officers and generals formerly of the Chinese National Army who were purged and murdered during the same movements in the early 1950s. This is something akin to the Stalinist purges and murders of General Staff members in the late 1930s, but is rarely if ever broached in the fervent commemorations of either the War of Resistance (into whose belly I will be myself be residing in Chongqing next weekend) or the early years of the PRC. Sacrifices multiple.
Finally, we see that commemorations of the Korean War are also coming under fire (and are allowed to be vented) in the PRC. Clearly a directive went out from the Propaganda Ministry to even the most "liberal" organs of the mainland press to feature statist Korean War commemorations on their covers last month. Thus Southern Weekend / 南方周末(often described as "reformist") gets front page bromides about old-timers making corrections to Korean War casualty lists in Sichuan and cadre traveling around the country from the Museum to Resist America and Aid Korea in Dandong.
We also get big commemorative series of more than 60 pages in Sanlian Shenghuo / 三连生活 (hardly a "reformist" magazine, but as a product of one of the better intellectual presses in Shanghai/Beijing, as decent an organ as any for globally-minded Chinese who do not wish to leap upon the dirty truck bed of Huanqiu Shibao nationalism) which feature long extracts from CCP-issued official biographies of Army general and Korea field commander Peng Dehuai. But at the same time, a detailed and critical Phoenix News story on China's ambivalent relationship with North Korea — including disclosures of much wider violence and criminal activity stemming from the DPRK side of the border than is normally reported — got wide play on the Chinese internet, and stayed up on the Tiexue BBS with a new title "China's 'Blood Alliance' with North Korea is a Huge Joke on the Chinese People."
Revolution, counter-revolution, kill the counter-revolutionaries.
Commemorate, and counter-commemorate, but do not silence the counter-commemorators. If a hundred flowers can bloom from a hundred hundred thousand tombs of the epoch (and when one adds Mao's own admission of 700,000 executions of "enemies of the people" to the now-official 158,010 Chinese deaths from the Korean War, that is about what we get), then perhaps the violent extremes and the political-military-social whiplash of the early 1950s may be said to have some positive legacy for the present age.

Thank you for this post. This is all very salient.
I think the Civil War in Southwest China is in need of more attention. Who knew that Guangxi was not liberated until December 11, 1949, or Yunnan not until February 24, 1950?! And even then, 'liberation' did not always mean that a complete victory had been achieved…

A New Portrait of Statesman Norman Mineta is Unveiled
Jess Righthand
"There are times when you think about your life in reflection." Norman Y. Mineta stood before a group of family, friends, former colleagues and Smithsonian staffers Monday evening as his soft eyes gazed at his own likeness sitting across the podium in a regal gold frame. "I don't know if you should be proud to be hanged, but there's no question that I'm proud to be hanging in the National Portrait Gallery."
Mineta—formerly secretary of commerce under Bill Clinton and secretary of transportation under George W. Bush—was painted by New York artist Everett Raymond Kinstler, who has more than 80 portraits already in the Portrait Gallery's collection, including Yo Yo Ma, Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Katharine Hepburn. The portrait was unveiled and hung Monday evening, in a program that included remarks by museum staff, the Smithsonian Asian Pacific American Program that gifted the portrait to the Portrait Gallery, and Mineta himself.
Mineta's is a different American story from most. Having been sent to a Japanese internment camp as a child during World War II, he worked his way up through the ranks of state and federal government. Richard Kurin, Under Secretary for History, Art and Culture at the Smithsonian, praised Mineta as "a true public servant, who instead of becoming embittered by his experiences, learned from them, worked hard and accomplished much." Kurin read a letter from President Barack Obama, calling "Norm" the "consummate public servant."
Mineta recounted stories of his siblings facing discrimination when they were younger—of his sister, who wanted to be a school teacher but was told nobody would hire her because of her Japanese heritage—and of his brother, whose draft card in 1942 was marked by the designation "4C," or "enemy alien."
But despite what may have been a painful past, Mineta emphasized the positive influences he received throughout his life. "Through these kinds of experiences, you get mentored," he said. "I'm privileged to be standing on the shoulders of giants of the past. . .I hope to play a small role in encouraging Asian Pacific Americans to go up the ladder of success, and to pull someone else up with them."
The portrait depicts Mineta, arms folded, in a dark suit with an American flag pinned to his lapel. He stands before an Asian screen, and a small sculpture sits in the lower right-hand corner of the canvas. Kinstler, the artist, said he does not believe in "gimmicks," but in "making use of objects that show something about the character of the subject." Because the portrait was social rather than political (now that Mineta is no longer a government official), Kinstler felt justified in using vibrant colors for the background and small props to bring a "sense of life" to the painting.
As the portrait was hung in the hall of the museum, Mineta and Kinstler—now friendly after four sittings for the portrait—feigned clamoring for attention from the cameras, one white-haired man leaping boyishly in front of the other. I recall Kurin's words from earlier in the evening: "In one lifetime, one can embody a great American story."

Westworld Season 3 release date, latest news, rumors, cast, trailer and posters
(+21 rating, 5 votes)
"Westworld" is a fantastic American TV series directed by Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy, broadcasted on HBO. At the moment, the series consists of 2 seasons (20 episodes).
The main idea of the creators of the series borrowed from the eponymous sci-fi film in 1973, the writer and director Michael Crichton.
For two seasons, the series scored a high rating among viewers and received a lot of positive reviews from film critics. After the end of the second season, you could often meet different rumors about the fate of the series. Some predicted the end of the story, while others dreamed of seeing a continuation. And the dream of fans of the series came true, they got official comments from the authors of the project.
The creators of the series "Westworld" Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy immediately notified the fans that they will not see the continuation soon. They decided to take a break and start writing a script for the third season already in May 2018.
"The fact is that the work on the second season was actually started before the premiere of the first one. It gave us a certain head start. Now we don't have it, and after the second season we will definitely take a short pause because we've been working on the series for four years."
Therefore, today it is possible to declare with 100% confidence that Westworld Season 3 will be!
The exact release date of Westworld Season 3 is still unknown. The creators of the series set a preliminary date – 2020 (most likely it will be May 2020).
All the main actors of the series confirmed their participation in the filming of the third season. And this is good news for all fans, because in the near future they will again be able to see their favorite characters!
The battle of androids against humanity continue! What scenario do you expect to see in the third season? Share your opinion in the comments.
Future. Technology has gone far ahead, and with them the ordinary life of man has changed. And the entertainment industry is not at the same place. Thanks to the existence of androids – robots that look like humans, a variety of theme parks appear. At the root of this innovation was Dr. Robert Ford. Any historical epochs are recreated in the parks. In this series in the middle of the action – the park, decorated like the Wild West. More precisely, for people it is an opportunity to visit in a long-gone time, in another reality; it is enough for them to pay and change into the costume of that era. For the androids inhabiting this world, their reality is the only one. Robots not only look exactly like humans, but also copy their behavior and imitate feelings and emotions.
Androids are programmed to fulfill any whim of people – park visitors. A person can translate any sexual fantasy here or even kill an android. Since the robots are not aware of what is actually happening, they regularly erase their memory after the nightmare they have experienced. For example, Dolores Abernathy is an android girl who lives on a farm with her father. Every time the same thing happens to her – she is raped, and her fiance is killed before her eyes. But she does not know about it because of erasing the memory.
Over time, in the work of some androids, unexpected failures occur. It is similar to how real people go crazy. Dolore's father begins to experience incomprehensible visions associated with reality, which the robots have never seen. Bernard Lowe, programmer, reports Robert Ford,an owner of the park, but he does not consider what is happening to be serious and does not want to lose money by stopping the work of the park. Therefore, customers continue to visit the Wild West …
Soon, what is happening goes out of control completely. A character the «Shooter» appears in the park. He knows too much about the real world and is going to tell the androids about everything. War against humanity is starting…

The issue: Certain kinds of games require that players keep one or more specific goals in mind as they play. Players who return to a game after a long absence may find it difficult to remember what they're supposed to do next, which may impede their progress.
Resolution: Provide some sort of reminder of the player's unfinished tasks. This may assume such different forms as a list of pending and completed goals (Psychonauts), an in-character reminder of pending goals (Dragon Quest VIII), or a video log of significant cutscenes (Ratchet and Clank: Going Commando). If any of the tasks require knowledge of specific details previously revealed in play, the player should likewise be reminded of those details.

"To read would be an awfully big adventure."
REVIEW: WILDER GIRLS BY RORY POWER
on July 14, 2019 July 14, 2019 By Heather | This Library of Mine
☆☆1/2
It's been eighteen months since the Raxter School for Girls was put under quarantine. Since the Tox hit and pulled Hetty's life out from under her.
It started slow. First the teachers died one by one. Then it began to infect the students, turning their bodies strange and foreign. Now, cut off from the rest of the world and left to fend for themselves on their island home, the girls don't dare wander outside the school's fence, where the Tox has made the woods wild and dangerous. They wait for the cure they were promised as the Tox seeps into everything.
But when Byatt goes missing, Hetty will do anything to find her, even if it means breaking quarantine and braving the horrors that lie beyond the fence. And when she does, Hetty learns that there's more to their story, to their life at Raxter, than she could have ever thought true.
I don't exactly remember when or how I discovered this book, whether it was floating around Twitter or I saw it on a blog, but whatever the case, that cover drew me in immediately. Everything about that design screamed for my attention and was begging for me to look closer at it. I went and read the synopsis and it sounded like it'd be an epic horror thriller, and I wanted to read it so badly. Everyone I saw on social media was hyping up this book. Everyone who has read it prior to me has raved about it. So I not only had high hopes but high expectations. And we all know what happens when you have high expectations: you're eventually let down. It's funny because the story itself didn't let me down and intrigued me so much, but it was the mechanics and how certain aspects of the storytelling were handled that let me down and overall didn't resonate with me the way that other books have. This really might be a case of this book isn't for me and my tastes and that's why I personally didn't like it. Because again, the story itself is really good. The execution? Not so much.
As I said, I really did enjoy the overall story that was presented here in Wilder Girls. The idea of a school on an island being completely quarantined due to some inexplicable disease, and the students being affected in various ways of the disease, had such an intriguing power to it. Where did the disease come from? Why is it only affecting the students? Is there a way to cure it? The entire book, you're wanting to find answers and learn everything you can about this disease, the Tox. It was interesting to see how the Tox acted differently in each girl and how they all seemed to morph and alter into different things. Some girls would change physically on the outside while others would change on the inside. Some would lose body parts, some would gain them. Not one person had the same infliction from the Tox and I think that showed how completely random and unpredictable the disease was. It was that kind of unpredictability that made you want to keep reading to find out if there's any potential end to it and collect all the answers you could. But what was most interesting to me, at least, was how "societal" the girls of Raxter became after the Tox happened. The teachers and headmistress all tried to keep the same order and routine of school after it happened to retain a bit of normalcy to it all, but eventually with people dying and not being able to go on as it once was, they had to learn to live differently. They created jobs and shifts so all the girls had some kind of responsibility to keep everyone safe, whether it be Gun Shift, which was some kind of patrol, or retrieving rations for your group. There was a system in place to keep the girls safe and to teach them to defend themselves if necessary, and it was all done without any kind of chaos or power struggles, for the most part. This part of the story, and the overall story that was being told, I felt was really well done and beyond creative and while a lot of it was horrifying, it was also pretty interesting.
I think the biggest reason why this book didn't work for me was the way that Rory Power writes. I wouldn't say I'm selective when it comes to the type of prose I like, but I can tell you that I don't like Power's. It's hard for me to describe exactly what it is or why I don't like it, but there were a lot of times where the narration felt very "matter of factly" and was like it was describing a mundane life step by step, if that makes any sense. Like, there were times where Hetty would be describing what she was doing by saying "it's dark now" and almost describe what's around her or in front of her in an almost listicle way. I think the best way I can describe it is that Power's writing was almost like reading the way slam poetry sounds. There were either short sentences full of facts or eons of run-on sentences, and the Oxford comma was put to use and then some. I understand that this was an uncorrected ARC I was reading, but I can guarantee that a lot of these commas will remain because that's just Power's style. And it's not a style that I like. There were also instances where it seemed like Power was afraid of using conjunctions and sentences would make so much more sense if they were used or inserted, but they just weren't used. And then when we would be with Byatt, the style was borderline nonsensical and punctuation and structure just didn't matter; I understand it was purposeful to reflect what was happening to Byatt but it could've been done better. Words and phrases were repeated probably for emphasis that wasn't entirely necessary and borderline gave me a headache, wishing I was out of her POV. Overall, the book's writing made the reading process feel choppy and due to my annoyance at the writing I couldn't focus on the story at hand the way I wanted to.
I think there are two major mistakes with this story. The first is that we're thrown into it almost a year and a half since the Tox first flared up and we're dropped right in the middle of everything. There's no buildup to what's happened prior to the first sentence, no kind of prologue to get you in the right headspace, and really no proper introduction to everything. That's not true, you're thrown into the plot and then spend the next 60 or so pages reading about what the Tox has changed, over and over again. I kept wanting to make a joke of how talking about the Tox was like its own meme, of how "everything used to be different before the Tox" and that's how I knew it was getting out of hand. I wonder if maybe we had some kind of prologue to slowly ease us into the Tox and the world of Raxter, it would've been easier to swallow and therefore provide better understanding and context. But that leads me to my next point about the ending, and that's that there really wasn't an ending. It's not quite that you're left on a cliffhanger in this book, since it's a standalone, but you're left with almost the same amount of unanswered questions that you have when starting the book. First of all, Hetty, Reese, and Byatt manage to escape Raxter but we don't know if they're going to live, since it ends with them sitting in the middle of the water. We don't know if Byatt is truly ok. We don't even know if Raxter itself is still standing because the last few pages we were told that jets were flying overhead, most likely to destroy what's still standing after the bear attack. But beyond that, we really don't get any answers about the Tox. Sure, we apparently learn that it's due to some kind of parasite inhabiting each girl, and that's how the Tox builds and changes inside you, but it doesn't answer how that boy got infected after Byatt kissed him. It also doesn't explain how it got inside of the girls, and the teachers, and the animals, and the plants, and how it changes you. We never know where it came from, or how it can come in contact with you, or how to find it. And I'm sorry but I'm to believe a series of doctors and scientists who have been working on researching this for a year and a half haven't made this discovery but three girls randomly can? That doesn't make any sense. And finally, the thing that pissed me off most, is that there's no potential cure or any kind of scenario where this Tox is beatable. There's no hope. We went through a whole book learning about what the Tox has done and who it has taken, and there's not an ounce of hope that maybe not everyone will die in the end. It kind of left me sitting there wondering what the point was. This book needed more to the story, both at the start and the end, to become even close to satisfying and that's why I'm dissatisfied, honestly.
I'm not sure if the characters were supposed to be likeable or not, but I didn't really feel anything for them, and the relationships didn't quite help either. I don't know why it was Hetty who was one of our two main POVs and why it was her who was meant to be the catalyst in all of this. It made sense for Byatt to have a POV to see what was being done to her, but they could've been swapped out for other characters interchangeably. I didn't feel any kind of connection to either of them, and there was never any kind of depth or even true characterization that I saw. And Reese ended up being a total enigma throughout and I think her purpose was to be that unsolvable character, but again, no characterization. And I appreciate…whatever that was between Hetty and Reese, but as I constantly say, when people are dying on a scale like this, there's no time for a romance, if we can call it that. I just think it should've been left out of the book because it really added nothing to it overall. I would've said that about anyone here and I'm not just attacking Hetty and Reese. It just felt extremely out of place and because it's barely touched upon, and never fully explored or developed, it didn't have a point to me.
I really tried with this book, but it ended up just not being my cup of tea. But when you get a book that basically has no beginning and no end, and all you're left with is the middle, what do you really expect? I think that Power had a great idea here, but that idea needed to be shaped more than it was if you want to be left feeling satisfied. She has potential as a creator, but not quite the potential as a storyteller for me.

There is a cycling experience called the bonk. It's what happens when you ride too long without food, or didn't have enough breakfast to begin with, and the brain decides in the space of around 5 minutes, to reserve the remaining blood sugar for itself. It essentially says the rest of the body can look after itself until fat conversion gets into gear, which takes a long time. It feels rather like you are beginning to die.
I planned to use this year's Tour Down Under Community Ride as a springboard for a 400km day, and more if I still had the legs. If I start in the crowd at my average speed ranking of around 20 – 25kph, I find I post a really quick time for my age, but am then a bit burned for the rest of the day— something about the psychology of keeping up with those around seems to mess with my head. So I begin at the very back of the crowd. Sometimes I've ridden out behind the ambulance. I soon begin to pass the very slow riders, especially when the hills start, but it's just enough of a mind-hack to help me maintain an appropriate long distance pace.
On Saturday, everyone rode off without me. I was the last rider all the way down to the Southern Expressway, and on the gentle rises past Sturt Road, had begun to wonder what was wrong with me. 500 metres up the expressway I knew I was bonking, despite the hefty breakfast I use when I'm touring. It's happened once or twice before; the body seems to decide the last meal didn't happen, I feel a bit tired, and then suddenly... bonk.
I pulled off the expressway— 7% at this stage— and broke out the sugar. Which meant I nearly had to fight off an official with a stick, because he thought I was about to die, or something. By the top of a very slow hill, I had stopped shaking. By Noarlunga I was clear I was not going to vomit, and by Sellicks Hill I began to feel normal, apart from being excessively tired. Only from Yankalilla did I begin to pass the back markers— meaning the blokes over 75, and a few other pudgy fellows who plainly make the TDU their one ride of the year which goes much more than 25km.
It always takes a while for the blood sugar to turn around, for the shock to finish, and for any energy for effort to return. And I find that too much sugar at once can have its own unpleasant consequences, which you don't need me to describe here. I was going so slowly that it already felt like I was doing a solo ride; there was no one in sight.
I had accepted that I would end up waiting 45 minutes somewhere on the side of the road while the pro peloton came through, and that would mean I'd have trouble making 400km in the 24 hours, especially since I had been going so slowly. They have RFID receivers just past all the water stops, and as I arrived at Victor Harbor— still last— I head the bloke in charge of the RFID reader there telling the refreshment folk that there were still 40 people between Inman Valley and Victor! There must have been a lot of people in the cafes at Yankalilla when I trundled through! I also heard that the projected arrival time of the peloton meant I should make Strathalbyn before them.
In the event, as I left Strath, the peloton was still on the road! The Strathalbyn section was 160kms, which I covered at 20.4kph road speed and 18.7kph including the stops. It's remarkable how good these speeds were, given how sick I had been feeling. They reinforce my feeling that 75% of a long ride is in the mind, and that if you simply follow the nutrition and recovery rules, a whole lot of stuff can be "ridden through."
I stocked up with extra water at Strathalbyn, bought some lunch, and headed off to Wellington. The plan was to follow the river from there up to Swan Reach.
Wellington also meant turning out of the wind and back to the tail wind we had from Victor to Strath. The tail wind was good for speed, but bad for flies, as I crossed the dairy country up through Jervois. A Subway wrap never tasted as good as the one at Murray Bridge, with the young woman quite unruffled by a bedraggled cyclist also purchasing litres of water and chocolate milk. There is a certain constancy about bottled water which is worth the small expense on these rides. The river towns have taps that are not necessarily treated water, and there is no riding through the consequences of that! Nothing is open at night, and I was glad not to need the water I collected from a tap in Sedan as a precaution; the recycled water warnings near the taps are worrying!
It's an interesting climb into the hills here. My old GPS has a battery saving function which does slow satellite pinging, and means that grade readings are often understated. With the new Wahoo, I was seeing spots of 11%, which helped understand why this climb is so bloody hard at the end of a long day; in the dark it's very hard to estimate gradient. The wind was roaring down the gullies, and I could see the switchback climb traced out in reflective signs across the slopes ahead. I jumped off at one stage and walked at 5kph instead of riding at 6! This headed off an old back injury which had begun to remind me of its presence.
Apart from the geese and other birds, I had seen no wildlife, apart from rabbits, until I met a slightly surprised wombat just before Sedan. We observed each other for a few seconds until he toddled off in the bush. This meant I'd been lulled into a false sense of security during the hills through to Angaston, and nearly copped a roo. By which I mean locking up both wheels as it passed in front of me so close that I'm not sure how we missed each other. I said to a friend that if I'd been down on aero bars, I'd have been snotted by the top of its head! At 395km, it would have been a nasty anticlimax to be brought down by a roo.
Arriving at Sedan I still had 3 hours to do 30kms, which should be a doddle. The shock of the hill is seen in the fact that I did the first 10km in 8 minutes over the hour. But by the time I made 400km at Angaston, I was 45 minutes in front. I'm a couple of years older than when I used the Coast to Coast to launch 400km over much of this route and did the 400 in only 19:13hrs. I suspect the fast Coast to Coast run from Mylor to Victor Harbour helped on that trip, but the times also tell the tale of seeing off the bonk.
It was now about 70 kms to home. I had planned on a loop up to Kapunda from Nuriootpa in order to bring up 500km on the trot, but after breakfast in Nuri, I lazed down the bike path to Gawler and then the SOG, and did a few back street loops near home to bring up the distance.
My last effort at this distance took 29:08 hours, and required a nap in the main street of Jamestown. This time I took 29:40 for 502km, and I think I'm feeling a lot less exhausted— so far, anyway.

I don't plan to implement this until Guu is back home, so it'll be a while. However, I learned my lesson after the train incident, so I'm being transparent about game changing ideas to figure out if the staff (or more importantly Omni) might have a problem with it.
One of the far corners of the Pokute Palace grounds will be cordoned off and converted into the Ambrosia Community Center. It'll have a gym, a library, a food court, ect.
But the biggest, and the probably most important feature is this: The recall station, the dataverse uplink, the medical center, and a bunch of teleporters I will purchase will be publicly available. As in, any Player or NPC could go in and use those facilities, everyone will generally have permission to use them. Of course you'll need to be there once to use the recall station, but that's a given.
Obviously, there will be security measures in place. In order to use the teleporters or to enter the dataverse, you'll have to register your name and where you're going in case you're a criminal on the run and you need to pursued. If you're wanted in Ambrosia you could be arrested here. People coming in from the Dataverse or the Recall Station will be greeted with a security check point where they'll need to go through a strict screening process if they are new to the city. Of course, wanted people will be arrested here, and people with a high reputation for violence and discourse might be deported through a Nexus teleporter out of a need to protect the city.
Of course, the vault will remain in the palace proper and can only be accessed by Guu and Gildarts. In fact, the palace itself will be a lot less loose about letting anyone just waltz in like before.
So what do you guys think? Any comments or complaints?

Der  ist ein kleiner See in der Region  auf der Südinsel von Neuseeland.

Geographie
Eingebettet in bis zu  hohen umgebenden Bergen, befindet sich der See in dem nach Süden gewandten Teil der  auf einer Höhe von 860 m über dem Meeresspiegel. Neben einigen kleineren Zuflüssen wird der See durch den ca. 2,7 km nördlich entspringenden  gespeist. Am Abfluss am südwestlichen Ende des Sees setzt der Fluss seinen Weg fort. Der , der sich in einer Westsüdwest-Ostnordost-Richtung ausdehnt, besitzt eine Länge von 2,1 km und kommt in der Nähe seines Abflusses auf eine Breite von rund 420 m. Sein Seeumfang beträgt rund 5 km.

Zu erreichen ist der  zu Fuß von Westen her über den  und von Norden über den  . Die  ermöglicht es Wanderern in der Nähe des Sees Rast zu finden oder zu übernachten. Um den See herum wurde ein 2,6 km langer Wanderweg angelegt.

Geologie
Der See, der sich rund 7 km nordwestliche der   befindet, entstand vermutlich durch ein durch die Verwerfung der   erzeugtes Erdbeben vor zwischen 1885 und 2145 Jahren. Das Erdbeben erzeugte demnach einen Erdrutsch, der den  aufstaute. Baumstämme, die am Seeboden gefunden wurden, lassen nach der Radiokarbonmethode ein entsprechenden Rückschluss zu.

Trivia
Ein 1989 gegründetes Weingut in der Gegend westlich von Blenheim hat sich den Namen  gegeben.
