"Kill All Normies" Online Culture Wars and the Rise of the Alt-Right—A Review
Oliver Traldi
A Review of Kill All Normies: Online Culture Wars from 4chan and Tumblr to Trump and the Alt- Right, by Angela Nagle. Zero Books, $9.99 (Kindle edition).
An Irish literary critic and academic as well as a "dirtbag leftist" with bylines in Jacobin, The Baffler, and Current Affairs, Angela Nagle documents here the background and breakthroughs of the online politics which helped shape the 2016 election. It is an important topic and a fascinating one, and Nagle demonstrates the requisite impartiality: her conclusions do end up fitting her new-old-left politics nicely (as demonstrated by approving book-jacket quotes from Connor Kilpatrick of Jacobin and Amber A'Lee Frost of Chapo Trap House and Current Affairs), but they've garnered approval across the political spectrum, from Nagle's neck of the woods all the way to the stodgy Never-Trumpism of the National Review.
Unfortunately, one gets the impression that Nagle and Zero were both quite aware of how urgently this analysis was needed; the product seems rushed, even unfinished. Kill All Normies is merely a good start in need of deeper research, broader connections, clearer argumentation, and a great deal of editing. The book's first paragraph begins, "In the lead-up to the election of Barak Obama in 2008," and goes on, ironically, to discuss George W. Bush's "gaffs and grammatical mistakes"; we soon hear about "Peter Theil", and the fourth chapter discusses former presidential candidate "Pat Buchannan". Things don't improve at the sentence level. In the fashion of a true millennial net addict, Nagle sprinkles commas and hyphens like spices to disguise the fact that it's not clear where one giddy thought ends and the next begins. A representative sentence: "At the same time, the 'deplorables', from the Trumpian trolls to the alt-right, view the Hillary loyalists – the entrenched identity politics of Tumblr and the intersectional anti-free speech campus left – as evidence of their – equally bleak view of a rapidly declining Western civilization, as both sides have become increasingly unmoored to any cultural mainstream, which scarcely resembles either bleak vision" (7). This is the diction of a decent tweetstorm or drunk text message.
Nagle seems at some points too close, at other points too far away from her subjects, and she pays too much respect to the conceit of her title, separating "internet people" from "normies" to such a degree that she fails to draw from the online culture wars any lessons about offline societal trends. Indeed, it is not always clear which group she's writing for. She'll rehash at length incidents with which any internet person is well-acquainted, then use terms like "subreddit", "shitposter", or "Gamergate" or references like "Pepe the Frog", "American Renaissance", or "Milo" without giving much explanation. When she does give explanations they don't always seem right. We read that Nick Land is the "greatest misfit" of "neoreaction"(undefined); "once closer to the radical left-oriented Accelerationist school of thought and still a highly idiosyncratic thinker, he is not so easily categorized" (13). But there are right and left accelerationisms, and in an intellectual history it could surely be mentioned that Land spent his early adulthood teaching continental philosophy, an enormous influence on the modern left, at the University of Warwick's estimable department, where he wrote a book on Bataille and collaborated with Ray Brassier, a noted interpreter of the Maoist quasi-philosopher Alain Badiou. Perhaps Nagle is genuinely enamored of the flatness of the online memescape, the leveling effect it has; but for the reader to make sense of all the names whizzing by, some hierarchy should have been introduced.
Justine Tunney
In other places one wonders why certain information is missing and why other stuff is there. The book makes no mention of Justine Tunney, a transwoman who was involved with and arguably named Occupy Wall Street, only later to become a Silicon Valley-style "technofascist" who circulated in Bay Area neoreactionary and alt-right circles. What a deep connection between the movements Nagle describes! Sticking in NorCal, it is surprising to see no mention of LessWrong and the "rationalist" semicult, which is a Tumblr-style identitarian support group that nonetheless often ends up treading into alt-right discursive and political territory; as for New Atheism, it appears only in the form of Rebecca Watson, hardly the group's most characteristic member, especially in the context of the cultural politics the book investigates. Similarly absent is Ted Kaczynski and the Unabomber Manifesto, an only semi-ironic lodestar for some. Instead we get things like an offhand paragraph about "kek", breaking up the rhythm of a section on 4chan's abusive history, with no help for the normie reader to understand why it's there, and an out-of-order chronology of Gamergate, emphasizing abusive comments toward women. The result is too narrow to be explanatory and too brusque to be encyclopedic.
What the book does right
Nagle's at her best as literary critic. The second chapter, on trangression, demonstrates this: she reads 4chan alongside de Sade, Dostoyevsky, Bakhtin, Bret Easton Ellis, Chuck Palahniuk, and so on. It's regrettably short, though, only ten pages sandwiched between a political introduction and a chapter on Gramsci. Longer is the book's fourth chapter, which compares the alt-right with 60s countercultural libertinism, paleoconservatism, and neoconservatism. Nagle cleverly points out the mismatch between alt-right transgressive paleoconservatism and Buchananite religious paleoconservatism, and uses the neoconservative movement as a bit of a bridge: like the alt-right, she says, it featured very intelligent thinkers who took on the useful parts of leftist thought and culture.
Nagle also has strong moments as a literary stylist, telling the story of this or that online imbroglio. Generally the online left comes in for mockery and the online right for more genuine moral outrage. Moments like the growth of the "spoonie" subculture (73) and a white tweeter's seemingly proud admission that she was "not even sad about a 2yo being eaten by a gator" because of the "white privilege" his father exhibited (75) hit the reader as both tragic and hilarious—one foot inside the online memeplex, one foot outside of it.
Unsurprisingly, Nagle also intelligently develops the fifth chapter's section on campus controversies. Unlike many leftists, she's not at all unwilling to entertain the cultural conservatives' idea that high theory of the sort practiced by Stanley Fish has broad and deleterious social consequences. She uses the term "cultural Marxism" without much complaint and recognizes that the purpose of adopting nomenclature like "left conservative" to describe people like Alan Sokal was simply censorship and expulsion. She even cites the "Real Peer Review" Twitter account.

In the seventh chapter she provides an interesting if counterintuitive perspective on the "snobbishness" of 4chan (102). This is informed by her study of the academic literature on subcultures, including a deep critique of academics' eagerness to label transgressive or exclusionary subcultures as disruptive to the supposed hegemony of a mass culture (106).
Also good is the book's avoidance – to an extent – of simple left-versus-right framing. Regarding media sources from Buzzfeed and Jezebel to CNN and The Guardian, Nagle notes that "when the possibility of any kind of economically 'left' political force emerged[,] liberal media sources were often the most vicious and oppositional" (42). She is happy to skewer a list of fifty genders and to link it to the academic feminism of Judith Butler. But she doesn't just mock: she makes strident critiques, not always distant from those of cultural conservatives. "The cult of suffering, weakness, and vulnerability has become central to contemporary liberal identity politics," she says, going on to mention acts of "self-flagellation" among the putatively privileged (72-3). She returns to this theme in the book's conclusion, a sorrowful elegy for Mark Fisher, a leftist critic of identity politics, where she inveighs against an "anti-intellectual online movement, which has substituted politics with neuroses" (118). She rejects, too, the notion, popular in some circles, that the alt-right is simply the natural result of mainstream conservative thought. In doing so she shows a rare appreciation for the fact that the other team has as many cliques and subdivisions as her own.
Far as I can tell, Kill All Normies puts forward at least five distinct theses.
– Ch 5. Liberal identity politics online and on college campuses form a "cult of vulnerability".
– Ch 1. The alt-right formed largely in reaction to the puritanical vindictiveness of this mindset.
– Ch 2-4. The alt-right's most prominent figures are transgressive ironists in a libertine tradition.
– Ch 6. The driving force of the underbelly of the alt-right is misogyny fueled by sexual failure.
– Ch 7. The alt-right exemplifies countercultures' capacity to be elitist rather than antihegemonic.
These theses don't hang together particularly well. Some of them aren't ever really made clear. The gap between literary analysis and causal analysis is bridged by words like "fester" – everything "festers" in parts of the internet Nagle doesn't like, it seems – the mechanisms of which are never outlined.
The alt-right as reaction
Nagle's method is to treat "[e]very bizarre event . . . as a response to a response to a response" (6-7). The online left and online right are at loggerheads, she suggests, so interested in bringing the other side down that they can't tell when they're being serious. This dynamic, however, which "fester[s] in the dark corners of the anonymous Internet", she places in the context of "de-anonymized social media platforms, where most young people now develop their political ideas for the first time," and which function as a "panopticon" whose "public shaming" and "ultra puritanism" "could ruin your reputation, your job or your life" (7). From a leftist one might hope for some thoughts about the tech industry, about economic insecurity and the financial crisis, or about the loss of dignity that accompanies the loss of privacy under corporate and government surveillance; these are not merely potential causal factors, but political concerns that the online left and the online right share.
Perhaps Nagle's materialism is merely aspirational and not analytic. For the basic "response" she seems to see is merely the reactionary impulse. "The irreverent trolling style associated with 4chan," we learn, "grew in popularity in response to the expanding identity politics of more feminine spaces like Tumblr [and] in the ramping up of campus politics around safe spaces and trigger warnings, 'gamergate' and many other battles" (18). Similarly, "the new right-wing sensibility online today" "defines itself against" a "liberal establishment" (28). Is the only objection Nagle's old-school Marxism can give against the left-liberal cultural politics she describes that they might not win? That's a strategic difference, not an ideological or intellectual one.
Even if it is a reaction, Nagle has little sense of scope. "Today," she tells us, "the movement that has been most remarkably successful at changing the culture rather than the formal politics is the alt-light" (40). Later she admits that, at least until Trump, "liberals had been resoundingly winning" the culture wars (53). But she does little to measure those victories or to characterize the processes behind them. Obergefell came only thirteen years after Lawrence, only thirty after Bowers. In those three decades came a complete shift in cultural attitudes toward homosexuality. American culture has, in fact, liberalized – if that's the right word – with incredible rapidity. There is little debate about Wonder Woman; the debate is instead about whether screenings should be able to exclude men. There is little debate about affirmative action; the debate is instead about whether the ubiquity of microaggressions justifies minority students' claims that their lives are in constant danger on Ivy League campuses. Nagle claims "call-out culture" and "puritanism" are the causes of the alt-right reaction. But this seems unlikely to me; those are most salient for fellow leftists, not for dissenters.
Here's an example: "[A]lt-light celebrities like Milo built careers from exposing the absurdities of the kind of Tumblr identity politics that had gone mainstream through listicle sites like Buzzfeed and anti-free speech campus safe space politics" (44). But Milo and his ilk didn't really spend much of their time on otherkin. Instead, two of the central targets of Milo, Christina Hoff Sommers, and similar figures, were actually integral pieces of Democratic politics: first, the notion of a pay gap between men and women that resulted from discrimination; second, the notion of a rape culture on college campuses that led to a quarter of female undergraduates being assaulted.
Both of these ideas were promulgated not only by Hillary Clinton and surrogates as a candidate but by Barack Obama as President – the second, famously, in an advisory letter threatening to withdraw funding if universities did not weaken due process protections in their adjudicatory procedures. By the way, Nagle similarly miscalculates when it comes to Milo, whose "career is," she says, "in free fall" compared to "the hard alt-right who . . . are now stronger and more confident than ever" (49). Quite the contrary. Milo's new book, which is far less deftly rendered than Kill All Normies, was a #1 bestseller on Amazon. Spencer, on the other hand, never draws a crowd of more than the same couple hundred supporters.
If you ask alt-righters themselves, they'll give you an answer like: "What radicalized me was how, despite winning every cultural battle, the left insisted on demonizing and threatening me and mine." When it comes to race, for instance, the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education takes on two broad kinds of censorship cases. First, conservative professors are protested, are threatened, and face institutional backlash for saying they disagree with the goals of Black Lives Matter, or something similar. Second, liberal professors face institutional backlash – generally without protests or threats – for saying, e.g., that white people might need to die in order to achieve racial justice. There is simply no comparison between the two. The most common example cited is mainstream discourse on demographic change. Two years ago, Joe Biden, a white working-class figure if ever there was one, gave a speech about how good it was that whites were projected to become an absolute minority this year. Even someone who supports open borders, criminal justice reform, reparations, disparate impact jurisprudence, and whatever else is required for allyship – even someone like that could be forgiven for asking: Why good, if we're egalitarians? Why not neutral? Why would my political leaders, my academics, my journalists be so glad to see me gone? And why based on race, which I've been told my whole life is an invidious classification? As Connor Kilpatrick of the book's own jacket tweeted last month:
*looks at alt-right board for 1st time*
getting white kids to think about their whiteness & not their class position has backfired horribly
— Connor Kilpatrick (@ckilpatrick) June 16, 2017
There is another form of reaction Nagle fails to emphasize and that's epistemic and intellectual reaction. She acknowledges that Milo's protesters "not only wouldn't" be able to argue coherently against him "but also . . . couldn't" (118). She would have done well to remember an episode from the Trump campaign, where our now-President tweeted out some horribly, absurdly reversed crime statistics sorted by race. The media response was swift and condemnatory, but Trump shot back, asking something like: See what I have to do to make them tell the truth? Steve Sailer, who was an alt-right blogger arguably a decade before the alt-right even existed, recently tweeted about a Bay Area Rapid Transit decision not to release footage of on-train crimes because they might result in various kinds of bias incidents. Academics and journalists are happy to recite koans about the death of objectivity, but to the average citizen things like this look like not-so-noble lies:

Online sex and gender politics
Nagle writes: "What we now call the alt-right is really [a] collection of lots of separate tendencies that grew semi-independently but which were joined under the banner of a bursting forth of anti-PC cultural politics through the culture wars of recent years" (18). (Note the confused diction: "the banner of a bursting forth", "cultural politics through the culture wars".) But one tendency clearly concerns Nagle the most: misogyny. Stories of harassment of women, which are emotionally rendered and generate genuine disgust in the reader, dominate many of the book's pages. At the same time, the fifth chapter takes gender fluidity as the leitmotif of the "cult of vulnerability" of the Tumblr-left, in which "liberals don't believe in actual politics anymore, just 'bearing witness to suffering'" (69, 72). It is hard to reconcile this critique with the book's focus on transcriptions of the testimony of suffering women.
Nagle devotes her sixth chapter to the "manosphere", which she also calls "the anti-feminist Internet" (92). Grouping together a lot of disagreeing cliques into an "anti-feminist Internet" is convenient if one's thesis is that the online right is reactive and that its most salient trait is misogyny. But the portrait Nagle paints of this misogynistic bloc is very different from the one she painted of the alt-right generally. The misogynists, we see, are terrifyingly earnest in their beliefs, not particularly ironic or memetic, and apt to self-pwn in their descriptions of sexual or romantic failure. Indeed, Nagle comes close to empathy in discussing involuntary celibacy, "the pain of relentless rejection," and "the cruel natural hierarchies that bring [some men] so much humiliation" (97). A reddit post from an "involuntary celibate" is relayed: "I spent 4 hours just staring at the wall in my room. What normies call an existential crisis, for the incel is simply… life" (97).
I spent 4 hours just staring at the wall in my room. What normies call an existential crisis, for the incel is simply… life. from Incels
It is somewhat bemusing, then, that we see this group ultimately linked to the transgressive ironists and "underbelly" of the alt-right. They seem instead to share almost everything with the "cult of vulnerability" from Tumblr, right down to the failure to meet gendered expectations. Incel communities have their own puritanical call-out culture, too, exemplified by the ouster by Wizardchan members of a former owner when it was discovered that he had lost his virginity. Nagle traces a complex and frankly doubtful genealogy in which "[t]he negative association of femininity and mass culture goes back . . . to Madame Bovary" (113). Is this supposed to be a serious claim? Things would have gone much better if the manosphere's fear of intrusion and contamination were compared to the "safe spaces" already discussed – as its members explicitly do.
It's not quite clear what Nagle's take is on these kinds of pain that "fester" on Tumblr and subreddits and chans. Does she think they're real deprivations? Imagined? Self-inflicted? Are they a natural and necessary part of a sexual marketplace or something similar? The answer is going to be really important to our view of the online communities she's talking about: whether they're hurting their own members, who then lash out at each other and at perceived enemies, or whether they're acknowledging a real and troubling aspect of society.
Some thinking about normies would have been beneficial here, too. Advocates or not, willingly or not, men are going their own way. Sex is down among millennials. Graduation rates are down among men. Women in their twenties earn more than men in their twenties even controlling for occupation. Most telling of all, an unprecedented number of young men have simply checked out of the workforce; anime, video games, and pornography provide most of their daily activities. Are such men particularly politically active online, compared to other groups? What proportion of the alt-right do they comprise? Nagle doesn't really tell us. I'm not sure she really knows.
As striking as the book's emphasis on sex and gender is its lack of coverage of race. In fact, Nagle goes out of her way to insert sex and gender where just race would be more appropriate, for example, when she talks about the conservative goal of "defeating feminism, Islamification, mass immigration and so on" (59). During the rise of the alt-right, the president was Barack Obama; the dominant leftist protest movement was Black Lives Matter; and Donald Trump ran on a platform of law and order, building a border wall, and limiting immigration from the Middle East. Plenty of alt-righters are "traditionalists" with spouses and children. Locating alt-right activism within involuntary celibacy just doesn't quite fly when all these facts are considered. Anti-Semitism does come in for a short mention when it comes to the abuse David French of the National Review faced for writing an anti-Trump piece (118). But of course left-wing anti-Semitism doesn't come up. A search for "Israel" comes up empty. So do searches for "Saudi", "Yemen", "Libya", and "Syria", as well as "Venezuela" and "Colombia". "Mexico" comes up once, but in a quotation, not in the text.
Also absent from the book is a discussion of political violence. There is a brief mention of the first Berkeley riots and of Richard Spencer being punched, but no real thought is given to it. Worse, she is far too lenient there with her part of the left. She writes that "a purely identitarian self-oriented progressivism" led to "the very idea of winning people over through ideas now seem[ing] to anguish, offend and enrage this tragically stupefied shadow of the great movements of the left" (119). But the average dirtbag new-old-leftist at Jacobin or The Baffler or wherever is exactly the sort of person who will repeat right back to you, "Sure, fight Nazis with ideas." Mockingly, of course, while quoting dril tweets like scripture. Emmett Rensin wrote about "the problem and promise of political violence" in Foreign Policy, suggesting that such violence needs neither a moral nor a tactical or strategic justification. In these kinds of leftist circles what's most often disparaged as "liberal" is the belief that civil discourse based on some set of shared norms can effect any kind of political outcome.
Similarly, Nagle never extends her critique of transgression for transgression's sake to left ironists like the ones who are quoted on the book's jacket, who edit the magazines in which her articles appear, and who host the podcasts where she's interviewed. Just as the sad incels she describes match up with the Tumblr left, so do the left ironists she identifies with match up with the alt-light, and the more violent antifa with the "darker" parts of the alt-right. Gawker never comes up, neither in the context of snark nor in the context of its demolition in court. The book is similarly quiet on the relationship between the leftist academy and alt-right thought. It mentions only briefly Nick Land and the fact that Richard Spencer was working on a doctorate on Adorno. Also relevant here would be a discussion of Jason Reza Jorjani, a graduate of a well-regarded continental philosophy program at Stony Brook. The most general point is that the most prominent analyses from the postmodern academy present a world of pure identitarian conflict with no guiding morality and an excitement around overturning social structures and norms. It is therefore not surprising but actually quite natural that it would help to produce the alt-right.
Perhaps what's most achingly missing is any sense that these similar tropes and tactics from different groups might have similar causes, or even better, that members of the different groups might be feeling similar things, might have had similar experiences. After all, the alt-right is classically anti-interventionist and often anti-corporate. Those are points of overlap with leftists. And they come from the two biggest events Americans of our generation went through growing up: the Iraq War and the Great Recession. Kill All Normies traces elaborate genealogies for various groups of online leftists and rightists. This makes for clever literary criticism, but the question of history and politics remains: Why now? What's going on? And where might we find some common ground?

Q: Extract substring out of a string using Javascript All,
I have the following html as a string in javascript. I need to extract the string in "value", split by the specified delimeter "|" and put in two variables.
var html = '
<input name="radBtn" class="radClass" style="margin:auto;"
       onclick="doSomething();"
       value="Apples|4567" type="radio">

';

Required output is two variables having the following values:
fruitName = Apples
fruitNumber = 4567

Note: There can be many radio buttons with the same name.

A: If you can assume that your HTML is always going to be simple (i.e. only one value attribute, and nothing else that looks like a value attribute), then you can do something like this:
var fruit = html.match(/value="(.*?)\|(.*?)"/);
if (fruit) {
    fruitName = fruit[1];
    fruitValue = fruit[2];
}

A: Here's how you can do it:
$("input[name='radBtn']").click(function(){
    var val = $(this).val();
    val = val.split("|");

    var fruit = val[0];
    var number = val[1];
});

A: var div = document.createElement("div");
div.innerHTML = '<input name="radBtn" class="radClass" style="margin:auto;" onclick="doSomething();" value="Apples|4567" type="radio">
';

var str = div.getElementsByTagName("input")[0].split("|");

var fruitName = str[0];
var fruitNumber = str[1];

/*
Now,
fruitName = "Apples"
and
fruitNumber = 4567
*/

A: Here's one way:
var fruit = (function() {
    var fruits = $(html).find('.radClass').val().split('|');
    return {
        fruitName: fruits[0],
        fruitNumber: fruits[1]
    };
}());

You'll get an object like this:
fruit.fruitName // Apples
fruit.fruitNumber // 4567

A: var coolVar = '123-abc-itchy-knee';
var partsArray = coolVar.split('-');

// Will result in partsArray[0] == '123', partsArray[1] == 'abc', etc

see: How to parse a string in javascript?

A: $(function() {
    $("INPUT[name=radBtn]").click(function() {
        var value = $(this).val().split("|");
        var fruitName = value[0];
        var fruitNumber = value[1];

        // Add to an array, ajax post etc. whatever you want to do with the data here
    });
});

I may have the chance to visit Southern California in January or February of next year. Typically, my family and I would do Disneyland but we're planning a big DL trip in early 2015 (big planners, I know). Anyway, I have only visited MM once about 20 years ago when I around 10 years old. I have always wanted to visit and ride the thrill rides but haven't really had an opportunity until now.
How crowded is MM during Jan and Feb? I know it's only open weekends, are Sundays better than Saturdays? Would I be able to ride all or most of the major attractions (Full Throttle, Viper, Scream, X2, Riddler's Revenge, Tatsu, etc.), or would I have to miss out on some? Lastly, my son is four and is obsessed with rollercoasters (we have spent quite a bit of time watching POV Youtube videos of MM coasters in the past few months), I know he won't be able to ride all the larger rides, but do they have a decent offering of attractions for kids?
Though I've only been around Thanksgiving time (usually deserted if there's not a big event going on), I can attest to a pretty entertaining selection of gentler rides -- the first time I went, my mom and I only rode Gold Rusher (we were actually able to stay on it one night for 45 minutes straight. We only got out if someone wanted to sit in our row), and I still had a blast. Though it may not be the most kid-oriented park, I believe they have one of the largest numbers of "kiddie" coasters in America and a few other rides a brave four year-old could take on. Here is a list of all the rides with no height minimum with an adult. Have an amazing time!
That's what I was hoping for. Thanks! I'll try again when things closer and firmed up. Thanks again for the input.
As was said above, crowds shouldn't be an issue. But you may see a lot of rides running 1 train or down for rehab. But it's generally a good time of year to visit.
I'd ask closer to your visit and we'll have a better idea of what will be open/closed.
The crowd's likely less of an issue than the weather and maintenance.
If it's rainy and cold, you are likely to run into massive closures from that alone - it gets cold enough to ice over at the park sometimes. Winter's also maintenance season. I would really suggest dropping a line to the park about maintenance schedules.


Eva Longoria is set to move to one of Los Angeles' most sought-after neighbourhoods, after spending $13.5 million on a spacious 11,000 square foot estate in Beverly Hills. The Desperate Housewives star listed her house in the Hollywood Hills after purchasing the property, and we bet she can't wait to move in!
The contemporary-style home has recently been remodelled and has plenty of space for Eva and her husband Jose Baston, including formal and informal living rooms, a chef's kitchen, master suite and perhaps one of the highlights – a wine storage and tasting room. Meanwhile outside there is a swimming pool and outdoor kitchen, plus a tennis court, spacious grounds and breath-taking canyon views. Lucky Eva!
Eva's new home has both formal and informal family rooms on the ground floor, all of which have been recently renovated and feature high ceilings, rich oak flooring and a muted neutral colour scheme. Furnished with large plush sofas and armchairs, this room would be ideal for entertaining, and leads out into the garden and swimming pool area.
Should Eva or Jose ever need to work from home, this is the perfect spot for inspiration. The office is filled with natural light from the floor-to-ceiling windows, and overlooks the peaceful and private garden. A desk sits at the heart of the room, along with two leather reclining armchairs.
We're sure Eva will be spending lots of time in this room, which features a wine store and two seats for tastings. The actress has spoken openly about her love of wine, and even has her own range of wine-themed printed T-shirts, so this will be the perfect place for her to find her new favourite tipple.
There are two kitchens within Eva's new home – a chef's kitchen, along with a separate staff kitchen and prep area – so she will never be short of space for cooking. This kitchen is fitted with top-of-the-line appliances, including a double oven and dishwasher, all with beautiful views out into the garden.
There are four stools lined along the breakfast bar in the kitchen, so Eva and Jose can easily grab a quick bite to eat there should they wish, rather than moving to the more formal dining room next door. Much like the rest of the house, the kitchen has a contemporary décor, with neutral walls and wooden flooring.
The luxurious master suite has its own private den and bar area, along with his and hers bathrooms and walk-in wardrobes – what more could Eva possibly want? The room has a king size bed, sofa and armchairs, along with a fitted fireplace and views of Beverly Hills from the large windows.
This beautiful bathroom is the ideal spot for Eva to get ready for the red carpet or any other high profile appearances. The spacious suite is fitted with a freestanding bath tub, a glass walk-in shower cubicle and large dressing table and vanity area, all with spotlights overhead.
Another major highlight of Eva's new home is the garden, which has a swimming pool and outdoor seating area, as well as an al fresco kitchen, pool house and tennis court. The private spot is the perfect place for entertaining guests, including her best friend Victoria Beckham and her husband David.

In November 2019, board members of Energy Foundation China and senior representatives of international philanthropies in the field of climate change, environmental protection, and sustainable energy met Chen Jining, Mayor of the Beijing Municipality. Together, they witnessed the signing of a cooperation framework agreement between Beijing's Municipal Ecology and Environment Bureau and Energy Foundation China (2019-2023) by Chen Tian, Director General of the bureau, and Zou Ji, CEO and President of the foundation.
(Photo by: Liu Xin)
Mr. Chen thanked Energy Foundation China for its support to the environmental improvement in Beijing for the past two decades. He said that over the years Beijing had vigorously advanced the development of a green and low carbon city, made continuous efforts to control air pollution, develop a green transportation system, apply energy-saving technologies in buildings, ensure a clean energy mix, transform to a low carbon industrial structure, and thus made remarkable achievements in boosting green development. Energy Foundation China had supported the city to research on relevant policies and contributed to its endeavor to improve the environment; the two parties shall seize the opportunity of the agreement and strengthen cooperation in environmental protection, as well as in the fight against climate change and other fields, according to him.
ZOU Ji said that Energy Foundation China was partnering with Beijing to support research analysis on the overall strategy for "ecological civilization" and on how to build a livable city featuring green, low carbon, and innovation-driven development. Going forward, Energy Foundation China would work with Beijing in air quality, Winter Olympic Games, cooling efficiency, low carbon transportation and buildings, and other topics, and facilitate exchange programs between Beijing and cities in the U.S. and other countries, said Prof. Zou.
Hongjun Zhang, Board Chair of Energy Foundation China, and some of the foundation's largest funders, including the David and Lucile Packard Foundation, the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, and the Children's Investment Fund Foundation, expressed their appreciation for what Beijing has done for controlling air pollution and addressing climate change. They also hoped that Energy Foundation China could continue to be an enabling bridge between China and the U.S. and help share China's stories to the world.
Also present at the meeting were Yang Bin, Vice Mayor of Beijing; Jin Wei, Secretary General of the Beijing Municipal Government; and Li Xiaohua, Deputy Director General of Beijing's Municipal Ecology and Environment Bureau.

Q: Torsion of simple abelian group extension I'm curious if there is a general way to determine the torsion of a group extension. I'm most interested in the simple example where we have a central extension
$$ 1 \to \mathbb Z \xrightarrow{f} G \xrightarrow{g} \mathbb Z / n\mathbb Z \to 1,$$
where it is known that the map $f$ acts as multiplication by some integer.
What are the possible degrees of torsion elements in $G$? Furthermore, given the map $f$, is the torsion of $G$ determined? For example, if $f$ acts as multiplication by $n$, then $G$ must be $\mathbb Z$. On the other hand, if $f$ acts as multiplication by 1, then we have $G = \mathbb Z \oplus \mathbb Z/ n\mathbb Z$. Are there some simple general statements that can be made here?

Long Term Memory Loss Causes: Potential Risk Factors for Dementia
Research shows that age matters when it comes to risk factors of dementia and long term memory loss.
By Dr. Claudia Kawas
Today, people age 90 and older make up 4.7 percent of the older population (people age 65 and older). By 2050, the number of people age 90 and older, commonly referred to in geriatric studies as the "oldest old," is expected to increase to 10 percent of the older population. As lifespans rise, the changing demographics will impact our social, economic and health care systems—and lead to more people living with long-term memory loss. So why do we know nearly nothing about the oldest old?
Doctors and researchers in geriatric medicine have long treated seniors of all ages with the same standards of care. That means symptoms in 55-year-olds are addressed in the same way they might be for 98-year-olds. We've been assuming one set of truths holds true across older age groups without evidence that the blanket approach is appropriate.
In 2003, I started the 90+ Study at the University of California, Irvine, to gather data to help improve the quality and length of life among the oldest old. After more than 10 years of research, we are proving that what is true for 55-year-olds simply doesn't hold true for people 90 and up.
As an example, we can look at differences in dementia risk factors between the 55-plus and 90-plus communities. Numerous studies suggest that having high blood pressure earlier in life (around ages 55–70) is a risk factor for dementia later in life. But when we studied people in their late 80s and 90s, we found that high blood pressure is not a risk factor for dementia. In fact, we found that the oldest old who have normal or low blood pressure are actually at the highest risk for dementia.
We have also found a very strong relationship in the oldest old between low oxygen saturation levels in their blood and the odds of having dementia. A quarter of the 90-plus participants we studied over the past 10 years had a saturation level of 93 percent or less, whereas a normal level would be between 98 percent and 100 percent. That low level is less common in other age groups.
We don't know exactly why these differences occur just yet, but that's why this type of research is so important.
The fact is that when it comes to health care, age matters. We have always known that age mattered for the youngest generations, which is why standards of care are different for a 14-year-old, a 4-year-old and a 6-month-old. But somewhere along the way, we lost sight that age is just as important on the other end of the spectrum. To ensure this growing population of the oldest old is adequately cared for, we must continue to do research—and aging adults must continue to ask questions about their care.
Claudia Kawas, M.D., is professor of neurology and neurobiology and behavior at the University of California, Irvine, and a geriatric neurologist and researcher in the areas of aging and dementia.

Vocational Service calls on every Rotary member to exemplify high ethical standards in business and in their communities. If you find yourself in an ethical dilemma, we encourage you to use The Four-Way Test to determine the best solution.
You're the incoming community service chair for your club and will be serving in this role for the first time. You have been approached by a local university-based Rotaract club to work together on a river cleanup project. Your club doesn't sponsor this Rotaract club, which works with its sponsor club on other projects but also wants to make new connections. You're excited about the opportunity to work with young professionals in your community and build a relationship with the Rotaractors. You present the project and opportunity to your club. Members who have been involved in a mentoring program at the local primary school for many years feel they don't have the time to commit to this new project. They believe their ongoing tutoring project is already engaging youth and don't see value in working with the Rotaract club. You believe that the Rotaract project could be the start of a long-term partnership and feel strongly that the club should accept the invitation.

5 thoughts on "Ethical dilemma discussion: What would you do?"
gary5922 says:
I think the idea the Rotaract club wants to reach out is good, and if your club feels that they don't have the time to commit to an additional project. Possibly other clubs in the area might be a way to go
Without club support, it really can't happen. I'd help them reach out to other groups after checking with their sponsor. Their sponsor may prefer to work with them on it.
Chuck Weisbart says:
Ask for volunteers….. if you have enough…move forward with the interact club. If you don't have enough volunteers….. move on.
I would reach out to our own community, asking for support for the project. I would personally support the project and ask if the club is willing to have a member of the Rotaract club come and speak about the project. I would use our social media to help promote the project and the existing connections in the school to try and get the interest of the school community and students. You can interconnect projects and interest areas within the club by working and using resources and connections unilaterally to achieve different goals. You're not asking the already busy Rotarians for more work other than to share their knowledge and perhaps introduce them to the right people. This can be extremely helpful to the Rotaract Club with little effort from your existing members at workload capacity.
The most ethical thing that you should do is be honest, to yourself, your Club, and the Rotaract Club (or Organisation) that has invited you to participate. Being honest with yourself would mean that you accept that your Club may not have the capacity to participate in the project. Being honest with your Club by telling them how you feel and what options are available for engaging with this project, as Sarah has outlined above. Being honest with the Rotaract Club and advising them what your Club's decision has been and alternative options for broader engagement in their project.
It must always be borne in mind that direct involvement in a project is not the only thing that a Rotary Club can do, but it does (and should) offer a platform for engagement in the broader community through sharing and networking.

British Library: 'Law, Liberty, Legacy'.
To mark the 800th anniversary of the granting of Magna Carta, the British Library is holding a once-in-a lifetime exhibition that explores the history and resonance of this globally-recognised document. The exhibition is sponsored by Linklaters.
When granted by King John in 1215 Magna Carta was a practical solution to a political crisis, but in the centuries since it has become a potent symbol of liberty and the rule of law. This exhibition takes us on a journey from its medieval origins through to what it has come to mean today. As the national custodian of two original Magna Carta documents from 1215, the British Library will be drawing on its rich historical collections, as well as celebrated international items on loan, to bring to life a story that still has relevance today after 800 years.
The exhibition will be at the heart of a wider Magna Carta programme at the Library with a series of public events, a conference, a learning programme, and an online legacy for Magna Carta in 2015 and beyond. A large-scale artwork by a leading British artist has been commissioned by the British Library and the Ruskin School of Art at the University of Oxford to accompany the exhibition and will be announced later this year.

Urticaceae endemic to Peru
The Urticaceae are represented in Peru by ten genera and 87 species (Brako & Zarucchi, 1993; Ulloa Ulloa et al., 2004), between herbs, shrubs and trees. Here we recognize 24 species and two infra-specific taxa as endemics, representing six genera. Pilea is the genus with more endemic species. Endemic taxa are found mainly in Very Humid Montane Forests and Mesoandean regions, between 1600 and 3550 m elevation. We applied IUCN categories and criteria to six species. Two endemic Urticaceae have been recorded within Peru's protected areas system.

Some people have said that today we have lots of information but little wisdom. The Internet is full of celebrity scandals and hints about ways to lose unwanted fat. But when it comes to issues like untangling the confusion of life or achieving peace in the Middle East, we are at a loss. Such wisdom is beyond us.
Francis Collins is a researcher in the Human Genome Project. He helped map the DNA code that determines the characteristics of our bodies. Collins has called DNA a part of the language of God. God speaks to us through the wisdom by which he created us, the world and the universe.
And yet you don't have to be a scientist to glimpse the wisdom of God. Jesus said, "Unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven" (Matthew 18:3). Sadly, many who are considered wise in this world have rejected the wisdom of God.
God gave Solomon wisdom, enabling him to see through lies and deception. The wisdom of Jesus that cut through religious hypocrisy while still leading his followers to God makes us think hard, for our understanding is slow. But don't be discouraged. "If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you" (James 1:5).
Lord, give us ears to hear and eyes to see your wisdom. Make us teachable, that we may have wisdom from you to cope with the issues of life. Amen.

, attualmente direttore dell'Organizzazione Iraniana per l'Energia Atomica (AEOI) dal 16 agosto 2013, dopo che aveva già ricoperto tale incarico dal 16 luglio 2009 al 13 dicembre 2010. Inoltre è stato Ministro degli Affari Esteri dell'Iran dal 2010 al 2013, nel governo di Mahmud Ahmadinejad. È stato anche rappresentante del suo Paese nell'Agenzia internazionale per l'energia atomica dal 1998 al 2003.

Vita e carriera
È nato il 24 marzo del 1949 a Karbala, Iraq dove la sua famiglia si era trasferita per motivi lavorativi. Ha conseguito il titolo di BSc all'Università Americana di Beirut e un Ph.D. al Massachusetts Institute of Technology nel 1977. Salehi è stato anche professore associato nella Università di Sharif, membro della Academy of Sciences of Iran e dell'International Centre for Theoretical Physics in Italia.

Missioni diplomatiche

Ali Akbar Salehi ha svolto il ruolo di diplomatico del Ministero degli Esteri iraniano come:

Rappresentante permanente presso l'AIEA
È stato nominato rappresentante permanente dell'Iran presso International Atomic Energy Agency dal Presidente Mohammad Khatami nel marzo del 1997 e ha mantenuto questa carica sino al 22 agosto del 2005. Fu proprio Salehi a firmare, il 18 dicembre del 2003, il Protocollo aggiuntivo del Trattato di Non Proliferazione, successivamente mai ratificato dall'Iran. Egli è stato sostituito da Ali Asghar Soltanieh.

Vicesegretario dell'OIC
È stato Vicesegretario dell'Organizzazione della cooperazione islamica sotto Ekmeleddin İhsanoğlu dal 2007 al 2009. Si è dimesso nel luglio del 2009 per divenire capo dell'AEAI.

Capo dell'Agenzia Atomica dell'Iran
Nominato a capo dell'AEAI il 16 luglio del 2009 dal Presidente Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, ha preso il posto di Gholam Reza Aghazadeh. Come detto, in questa posizione è stato soggetto alle sanzioni da parte dell'UE e della Gran Bretagna per il suo contributo al programma nucleare iraniano. Salehi si è dimesso da capo dell'AEAI il 23 gennaio del 2011, quando Ahmadinejad lo ha nominato Ministro degli Esteri. Il suo posto è stato preso dallo scienziato Fereydoon Abbasi, anch'egli sotto sanzione internazionale per il suo contributo al programma nucleare militare dell'Iran (risoluzione ONU 1747 del 24 marzo del 2007)

Ministro degli Esteri
Nominato Ministro degli Esteri il 13 dicembre del 2010 da Ahmadinejad, ha preso il posto di Manouchehr Mottaki rimosso dal suo incarico senza preavviso mentre si trovava in un viaggio ufficiale in Africa. Salehi è il solo Ministro che non è stato sostituito dopo la contestata rielezione di Ahmadinejad nel 2009.

Coinvolgimento nel programma nucleare
Secondo quanto dichiarato da David Albright, responsabile del Think Tank ISIS, Ali Akhbar Salehi sarebbe stato a conoscenza del programma nucleare iraniano sin da quando era a capo dell'Università di Sharif nel 1991. In quegli anni, infatti, Salehi avrebbe lavorato a stretto contatto con il Physics Research Center, centro che faceva da ombrello al Ministero della Difesa iraniano nella coordinazione delle attività nucleari clandestine del paese. Salehi, in particolare, avrebbe coperto la compravendita di materiale utile al programma nucleare militare dell'Iran, facendo in modo che le importazioni dei materiali per il programma nucleare avessero una copertura "civile" a scopi di ricerca. In realtà, secondo Albright, le importazioni venivano fatte per conto del Physics Research Center e a fini militari.

Just replaced cat with a test pipe, and kept the stock exhaust back. Now the car act as if it is in some protect mode or something, just lost a ton of power!
Opinions on what it could be?? do i need a tune? Thanks in advance!
probably a boost or exhaust leak... CEL?

In the previous section, Web Hosts and Media Hosts, in the video I demonstrated uploading an audio file (MP3) to my media host, Blubrry. However, another step is needed before this information is included in my podcast RSS feed. What is that? I address podcast RSS feeds here. For now, it suffices to say that publishing a podcast episode is as simple as making a blog post in WordPress. If you're already using WordPress – I mean if you're a "basic user" like I am – you're not going to have any trouble with this.
When you install the PowerPress plugin, it will create custom fields in the "Add New Post" dashboard in WordPress. The "Podcast Episode" fields will typically appear under the areas where you'll enter the title and content of your blog post (i.e., your podcast show notes.) They'll look like this.
The PowerPress plugin makes this so easy that you might forget about the engine that drives your podcast: a dedicated podcast RSS feed. It's critical to your podcast. So let's take a closer look at it.

Platform Magazine: Best of Music 2020 featuring Madame Gandhi, RAVYA, Sarathy Korwar and more
Best of Music 2020
The music industry, like the other creative realms, was met by devastation because of the pandemic that has defined this year. It was a bolt that could shake the very foundations of anything, but the lockdown made us realise that creativity and art in any form will survive. And so did the music industry. The stage was missed but musicians echoed voices from their home to ours. In case you missed any of them, we present the best of music we have featured this year.
Madame Gandhi: Throughout my childhood, I always attended all-girls private schools. In NYC I attended The Chapin School, and in Mumbai, I attended St. Anne's. I loved my time at both because it was so inspiring to be around other women and girls, and celebrate the space to be leaders without the more domineering energy of our male counterparts. But I also felt critical of how we as a society in general school our children to conform, to not question society, to not develop their own creative intuitions. So, this music video is about moving from repressive spaces where we just take in what we are fed, and seeking out acts and spaces of personal freedom and liberation in our own lives. It feels especially timely during this period of global unrest. May we all take a moment to ask, 'what does my own oppression look and feel like? Whose oppression might my actions inadvertently be contributing to?' and, 'what does freedom look and feel like for me?'
Anhad + Tanner: Our recent album was recorded in Delhi and Durham, mixed by Gaurav Raina of Midival Punditz and finally mastered by Graeme Durham in London. There was a lot of back and forth. Of course it was challenging, but it's also a big part of what makes our duo interesting. As each place touches the music in this whole process, they manage to seep into the layers in some very beautiful ways. I don't think anyone has ever managed to blend the sounds of Durham and Delhi together, and getting to be a part of creating such a fresh combination of experiences is a big part of what makes this all so compelling for us. We won't lie, it is really hard to work because with so many people, you're constantly revolving around their schedule and making amends on your own. However, the addition of it is so worth the hustle, as you can instantly start hearing the weight in the music, as it goes via every new door it sets its path through and takes something unique along with it. Setting up sessions, facing technical issues, thinking of more DIY techniques — all these things were challenging but the support our collaborators and team has shown made the process a lot more calming to deal with.
KAVYA: I use music and lyrics as a form of communication. Sometimes I feel it is better for me to share my thoughts and feelings via a song, than just mere talking. Hence I am always inspired because there are so many people that I am constantly engaging with and always have something I wish to communicate. What better way to do that than write a song? Being inspired by my environment, whilst I am in the thick of it, is the greatest inspiration as I am not trying to escape or run away from anything, and write down my emotions on a piece of a paper as each day passes by. Oh, and the rain really inspires me too. It gets me very emotional and always puts me in such a mood to write some music!
Tarun Balani a.k.a. Seasonal Affected Beats: Whether I am behind the drums with my group Dharma, or writing for SAB, I am essentially trying to share stories through sound, however, the presentation is very different. With Dharma, the storytelling is through intimate performances and almost inviting the audience on stage with us to witness the drama that unfolds with improvised music. However, with my electronic avatar, Seasonal Affected Beats, since it's a solo project which relies on technology, I felt the need to really augment the performance with the technology and think a lot outside of the box. The trans-media aspect of the live show is to really create an immerse experience for the audiences and go much beyond just the performance part of it.
Sarathy Korwar: I am a first generation Indian immigrant in the U.K. but I have always stayed true to my roots and also try to control my narrative. I don't try to use my Indianness as a calling card, rather I make music and want people to see it for what it is. The biggest thing is breaking people's expectations of what they think my music should look and sound like, given my background and influences. I can only do that by paying attention to how I put my music out.
Thaalavattam: I am a designer turned environmentalist, more than a musician. From nature, colour and people, everything inspires me. Things I see in everyday life. Even found objects like PVC pipes and discarded bottles among others. Those are my influences to create music instruments rather than graphic design which also plays a major role in my life as a musician. All my instruments are up-cycled. Some big, some small, some so huge that they are installation like. One of my favourite instruments so far is called Tubela which is made out of discarded PVC pipes and is a very melodic percussion and plays like an analogue synthesiser. Another instrument is made out of twenty five discarded water jugs and is called floating jugs. I've made spring based instruments, bottle based instruments. Sometimes my sets are mixed with hybrid setups and sometimes I go completely acoustic without up-cycled percussions.
Saba Azad: Throughout the lockdown I was doing really well in my cocoon, at least, until I'm not thinking about the world crumbling outside. I love being by myself so it's easy. I have a roof over my head, food on my plate and a means to make a living despite the lockdown, and I'm grateful every day for this because a large part of the population is not so fortunate. Honestly I don't think there is much room to complain for someone in my position. There is however a sense responsibility to do all one can to help and contribute towards those less fortunate. It's a struggle to not feel guilt about one's own privilege given the horror stories one is hearing on a daily basis, but a better use of this privilege would be to do all one can to help out.
Deveshi Sehgal: Despite the dreary reality and loss that this pandemic has pushed humanity to face, I think in these times something has shifted at the core for a lot of us. The lack of movement and accessibility has made me realise that as humans, we learn to adapt to the environment that we are presented with. Speaking of environment, nature is finally blooming and the planet is finally breathing as it should. Everything except us is flourishing. I think I'm going to always remember this time for the things I felt through the silence. It has given me time to introspect, to reduce my wants, and most importantly, to look at myself as not something separate, but as a part of a whole — we are all in this together. I think prior to this, there was this need and a rush to stand out and to prove oneself, to give one's existence some meaning based on parameters set by society, but I really do feel that the things that truly matter are always kept on the sidelines in this quest. I hope to continue to cherish and contribute more to the things that count — fresh air, blue skies, love, compassion and empathy.
Komorebi: Sometimes I use my music as a form of catharsis, to deal with my problems, and therefore it becomes relatable to others. This is a more selfish outlook. Other times, I write music to inspire feelings of hope and positivity in others. There is a layer of social responsibility in having your voice heard by so many people. Rebirth falls into the latter category and was meant to instil feelings of courage and strength in people. Honesty is the most important thing to me. That is what I want to convey above everything else.
When Chai Met Toast: With the pandemic upon us, there will definitely be more emphasis on health and sanitisation when live music returns. We feel that the industry will come back stronger, as more people are longing for such experiences.

Digvijaya to head committee on agitations, Priyanka made member
Digvijaya Singh, who has made a comeback has been leading an agitation in his home state and was last seen in Delhi during the protest march led by Rahul Gandhi where he was detained by the police.

The Congress on Thursday constituted a committee to raise national issues and former Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh Digvijaya Singh has been made chairman with Priyanka Gandhi Vadra as one of its members.
A statement from the Congress said, "the committee has been formed to plan sustained agitations on national issues."
The other members of the committee are Uttam Kumar Reddy, BK Hariprasad, Manish Chathrath, Ripun Bora, Udit Raj, Ragini Nayak and Zubair Khan.
Digvijaya Singh, who has made a comeback has been leading an agitation in his home state and was last seen in Delhi during the protest march led by Rahul Gandhi where he was detained by the police. Many people have commented that Congress needs leaders like him. Singh, who was a powerful General Secretary and has been in charge of the party in UP, Assam, Andhra Pradesh and many other states, was out of the All India Congress Committee for long.
The Congress has been protesting against the government on various issues. On Thursday also it held a protest in Delhi against the fuel price hike but it has not been able to sustain a nationwide campaign against the Union government in the past seven years, said a party leader.
The party's frontal organizations — youth and women wings — on Thursday held protests against the government over inflation and fuel price rise in New Delhi. Mahila Congress workers protested near the Prime Minister's residence at 7, Lok Kalyan Marg.
The Youth Congress held a protest outside the Ministry of Petroleum against the rise in the prices of fuel and LPG cylinders.
The Mahila Congress protestors were detained by the police. Amrita Dhawan, president of Delhi Mahila Congress before being detained said, "the home budget has collapsed, the price of every item is skyrocketing and things are going beyond the reach of common man."
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday had attacked the government on the issue and had said that the only GDP which is growing in the country are the prices of Gas, Diesel, Petrol (GDP) which has hit the common man the hardest.

OTTAWA (Reuters) - Canada unexpectedly added jobs in August, but the unemployment rate rose to a one-year high as more people looked for work.
Friday's report from Statistics Canada did not change expectations that the Bank of Canada would hold rates steady when it meets next week after cutting them twice this year to try to revive the stalled economy.
The oil-exporting country fell into a modest recession in the first half of the year as it contended with the plunge in crude prices, but many economists and the Bank of Canada expect growth to perk up in the latter half of 2015.
Canada added 12,000 jobs last month. That surpassed economists' expectations for a decline of 4,500 jobs.
The unemployment rate rose to 7 percent after sitting at 6.8 percent for six consecutive months.
That was the highest level since it was at 7 percent in August 2014. The participation rate edged up to 65.9 percent from 65.7 percent.
"Overall, I think there's good news here that will offset the rise in the unemployment rate," BMO Capital Markets chief economist Doug Porter said, pointing to encouraging gains in full-time work.
The job gains came entirely from full-time employment, with 54,400 positions added. The educational services and public administration sectors led the increases.
Some 42,400 part-time jobs were lost.
The natural resources sector, which has suffered from the downturn in oil, added a modest 2,300 jobs. In Alberta, where the country's vast oil sands are located, 4,700 jobs were created, while the unemployment rate remained at 6 percent.
The Canadian dollar briefly firmed to a session high against the greenback before softening as investors were also taking in the U.S. jobs report.
Economists said the Canadian report did not change expectations that the central bank would keep rates at 0.5 percent on Sept 9. Markets are pricing in a modest 18.1 percent chance of a cut.
A separate report showed the labor productivity of Canadian businesses fell 0.6 percent in the second quarter, while the previous quarter's decline was revised lower.

We all know UV rays can be harmful to your skin. But what about your eyes? UV rays can seriously damage your vision. At Nuvue Optometry, all of our stock single vision lenses come with a Crizal coating at no additional cost. Crizal coatings give your eyes the best available protection, on a clear lens, against harmful UV rays. UV rays are a major hazard for your eyes and the skin around your eyes, causing: Accelerated skin aging (wrinkles), Eye diseases (cataracts) and Risks of cancer (90% of skin cancers occur on the face and neck, of which 5 to 10% on the eyelids). Our lenses our coated on both sides to protect from UV damage from the front of the lens and reflected UV damage off the back of the lens.
UV rays are everywhere, 365 days a year: 40% of UV exposure occurs when not in full sunlight (all year long, even in cloudy conditions and at home) and over 90% of UV rays may pass through clouds. Your lenses must respect two criteria to reach the minimum level of protection. First, they must block at least 20% of harmful blue light while offering a minimum UV protection of E-SPF 25 protection. The short-term benefits for this are clear: Reduced digital eyestrain paired with overall well-being (regulation of sleep/wake cycle, better mood and cognitive performances). Crizal coating also offers Long-term protection, combating premature aging of the eyes (wrinkles) & Eye diseases (cataracts and age-related macular degeneration).

The Objective : The objective was to determine whether the health of hard red winter wheat and barley crops is impaired by higher concentrations of salinity in the soil.
Five different groups of wheat and barley plants (three plants in each group) were exposed to one of five different levels of diluted seawater at equal intervals over the course of nine days (salt shock), in order to simulate a condition in which crops are exposed to seawater.
The growth of wheat and barley plants in the five salinity conditions was then compared.
Wheat plants exposed to the two highest levels of salinity (25% and 50% seawater) suffered decreased health and reduced growth as a result.
Wheat plants exposed to the three lower levels (0%, 6.25%, and 12.5%) did not suffer much stunting at all. In comparison with wheat, barley plants showed more resistance to salinity.
The most surprising finding was how severe the effects were from only three instances of watering with salt water.
When soil salinity is increased, the health and growth of wheat and barley plants are impaired. In an era when rising sea levels are predicted, these findings suggest the importance of carefully planning coastal crops.


An estuary is the area where a river meets the sea (or ocean), where fresh water from the river meets salt water from the sea. The fresh draft of the NIST Digital Authentication Guidance (NIST SP800-63B) has been let loose into the salt waters of the public and certainly provoked some conversation of late around SMS. What kind of ripple effect might it have on your step-up authentication methods?
The balancing act of authenticating consumers with the utmost security while ensuring unfettered convenience continues to pose a challenge for organizations as the threat landscape evolves and authentication guidance attempts to keep up. Having a fraud prevention and authentication solution with a robust risk engine, flexible policy controls and a breadth of step-up authentication methods is essential to remaining agile in times of change. Adapting your posture to meet your changing risk appetite is imperative to ensure your clients feel secure and receive what they deserve: a frictionless user experience. When you consider your authentication engine that's driving your consumer's experience, what kind of inherent flexibility helps drive the core of your solution?
When you consider previous adjuncts of crossed waters, pundits suggested that passwords, regardless of complexity and static Q&A were deprecated as security mechanisms and vilified in the media as "dead" or "useless". But even today, greater than 50% of on-line portals are still using those two mechanisms as a form of authentication for consumer users based on their acceptance of risk vs. reward. The question remains - what is your risk appetite?
The recommendation covers remote authentication of users (such as employees, contractors, or private individuals) interacting with government IT systems over open networks.
National Geographic estimates that the oceans rise 3.5mm every year. As water levels rise, there is bound to be impact. As the tides change within the cyber landscape, consider your solution and determine whether it delivers thanks to its core focus on flexibility, choice, and security. Having a solution that can pivot effectively to help you navigate with the times as waters collide is plainly a necessity.
