Q: Find the third derivative of $xe^{(x^3)}$ and show points where the derivative is $0$ Find the third derivative of $f(x)=xe^{(x^3)}$. Along with the graph of the third derivative show the points where the third derivative is $0$.
This is a problem that  I am supposed to solve in Wolfram Mathematica. I have begun with finding the derivative using D[[f[x],{x,3}] but I am having trouble finding the points and showing them on the graph.
In the presentations from my school it says that I am supposed to use the function Last[Last[FindRoot[f'[x], {x,0}]]], but I don't understand why I should use it because it's not really showing anything on my graph.
By the way, {x,0} in the FindRoot[] function is supposed to be find the solutions for the equation in the area around 0 or ..? I'm guessing that since the graph of the derivative looks like this:

The whole code that I have written for this problem is this:
GRAFIK[x_] = x*E^(x^3)
r1[x_] = D[x*E^(x^3), {x, 3}]
Simplify[3 (6 E^x^3 x + 9 E^x^3 x^4) +
  x (6 E^x^3 + 54 E^x^3 x^3 + 27 E^x^3 x^6)]
a = Plot[r1[x], {x, -1.5, 1}]
rese1 = Last[Last[FindRoot[r1[x] == 0, {x, 0}]]]
rese2 = Last[Last[FindRoot[r1[x] == 0, {x, -1.5}]]]
rese3 = Last[Last[FindRoot[r1[x] == 0, {x, -0.5}]]]
b = ListPlot[{rese1, GRAFIK[rese1]}, PlotStyle -> PointSize[0.02]];
c = ListPlot[{rese2, GRAFIK[rese2]}, PlotStyle -> PointSize[0.02]];
d = ListPlot[{rese3, GRAFIK[rese3]}, PlotStyle -> PointSize[0.02]];
Show[{a, b}, {a, c}, {a, d}]

A: Using Wolfram Mathematica like you asked, you can easily find that the this derivate is
$$f^{(3)}\colon x\mapsto (27x^7+81x^4+24x)e^{x^3}.$$
Then you know since $e^X>0$ for all $X$ that $f^{(3)}(x)=0$ if, and only if,
$$27x^7+81x^4+24x=0.$$
Know you just have to solve this equation using Wolfram Mathematica, and you get three solutions:
$$\left\{0,-\frac 2{\sqrt[3] 3},-\frac 1{\sqrt[3] 3}\right\}.$$

The globular fruiting body is carried on a stalk and is 2 - 9cm high. In this species it is covered in short pyramidal warts which rub off. The base of the fruiting body is solid and sterile and the olive-brown spore mass is inside of the globular head. The spores are liberated through a pore on the top.
Habitat: In woodland, in summer through to late autumn.
These are fungi in which the fruiting body starts out as a ball. The wall (or peridium as it is correctly known) is composed of two layers. When the fruiting body is mature, the outer layer splits and when wet, opens out in the shape of a star. The spore mass remains inside the inner wall layer and spores are released through a small pore in the wall.
The fruiting body is an irregular ball, covered with rough scales and attached to the soil by a thick mycelial strand. The fruiting bodies are 4 -10cm across. The interior of the ball is filled with a dark, powdery spore mass. The spores are liberated by the ball breaking open irregularly as it matures.
Habitat: woodland and scrubby heathland, through late summer and early winter.

Pete's Futbol Experiment Update: 4/6 Games Watched →
Pete's Futbol Experiment: Day One Random Commentary
June 8, 2012 Leave a comment
GAME 1- POLAND VS. GREECE
The first thing I noticed was that the commentators mentioned that the European Championships are more difficult to win than the World Cup. Wow. Had no idea, and have no idea why. They never really said.
Question 1- Why is this tournament more difficult to win than the World Cup?
Super Fan Rakesh- Bigger concentration of good teams in Euros, but still missing some outstanding teams. Group stages are more difficult.
It's just 5 minutes in and there's actually been a decent amount of action. Poland has had a few offensive chances.
Announcers are reiterating what I was told about this group from the Montrose Super Fans, Group A is "soft" and "weak." That brings me to my next question.
Question 2- How is each group decided? I know there aren't seedings because it's a round-robin format, but there has to be a way those four teams in each group are decided right?
Super Fan Rakesh- Random draws.
Fourteen minutes in we have our first "injury." Ludovic Obraniak from Poland. Didn't seem to be that big of a collision. Player is back up and back to normal after lying on the ground for 20 seconds. That annoys me. Was he injured? No. He was hurt. Shake it off and don't waste our time watching you pretend you have some sort of injury.
16:47 And in just over a quarter in real football (15:00) Poland scores off a header. Pretty cool centering play and headed in by Robert Lewandowski. Now that's a polish name! #Pride It was only a matter of time (I'm assuming) Poland has been putting pressure on Greece for the majority of the game.
Aaaaaand another injury. They've taken his shoe and sock off and spraying him with the magic spray. You know what my next question will be.
Question 3- What is that spray? What does it do? Is it like Icy Hot?
Super Fan Rakesh- Pain relieving spray, like Icy Hot.
Greece is playing with 10 players while the injured fella is being attended to. If the remedy for the player's injury is a bit of spray then it doesn't seem worth putting his team down a man for any amount of time. Walk it off?
After a collision between a Polish player and a Greek player, both go down and throw arms up into the air. Looked like a pair of dives to me, but what do I know?
Stadium is packed full of Polish fans. They whistle every time the Greeks get possession. It's nearly as annoying as Vuvuzelas. I'm guessing it's supposed to get the Greeks off their game. But really, I think it's just annoying.
Question 4- How long is the grass on these fields? It doesn't seem to be as short as golf greens, but maybe the fringe?
The net seems so damn big. How do these guys miss from in close? I'm guessing it's harder than it looks, certainly under pressure.
It's nearly half way through the match and Greece hasn't had any legit scoring chances. They look incredibly inept.
First red card at 43 minutes. ENTIRE Greek team is pleading with ref to change the call. Did look like a crap call, I don't know what he did to deserve the ejection.
Greece is mobbing the referee and getting a yellow card. They are arguing an alleged hand ball. Not getting the call. Maybe they should play better and score rather than arguing everything. That's a sign of a really struggling team. Frustrated by its own limitations.
So we are now at the half and the score is 1-0. Poland was entertaining for a few minutes, Greece is a bunch of whiners and so far, this game is not turning me into a soccer fan.
So the ref that gave the red card apparently does that a lot in "La Leaga" whatever that is. Gotta be careful around ticky-tacky refs.
So if you lose the opening game, apparently it's basically impossible to qualify for next round. Is that BS? I guess Greece can't afford to lose one game in the group stage.
But scoring one goal seems like an insurmountable task for Greece at this point, so they should probably give up.
And at 50 minutes, Greece scores, making my previous comment…not…good.
Now we have a ball game! Can this end in a tie? That would irritate me.
American Soccer Fan Charlie Ash's Commentary- Yes. Tie's in the group stage. The top two from each group advance to the knockout rounds. Once knock out rounds start then there are no ties.
In the group stage:
3pts for a win
1pt for a draw
0pts for a loss
WOW goalie gets a red card and there's a penalty kick! This game is starting to interest me. Poland has been in control basically the whole game and now, Greece can take the lead. This is karma from that earlier phantom red card to Greece.
SAVE! WOW I don't know what's crazy in soccer, but this is now crazy.
That offsides call prevented a goal. I'm guessing there's no replay in soccer? The call was actually correct, but the situation reminds me of a certain Briere goal in the Pens/Flyers series that should have been called offsides.
Since the game was tied, there hasn't been much action. I guess both teams are playing for the tie? That's no fun, whatsoever.
Game ends in a 1-1 tie. It was exciting at times, but ultimately I can't stand ties. In competition, there should be a winner and a loser. Period.
GAME 2 CZECH REPUBLIC VS. RUSSIA
First 10 minutes are done and I haven't seen anything to note so far. My only question is why is the Czech goalie wearing wrestling head gear?
GOAL RUSSIA AT 14:29. A centering ball gets headed into the post and the rebound is pounded in. 1-0 blowout so far. Yes that was sarcasm.
Aaaaaand someone throws a flare onto the field. Yes, a flare. A. How does someone get that into the stadium? B. Why the hell would you throw a flare onto the field? Are all soccer fans mindless idiots?
RUSSIA SCORES AGAIN IN THE 23RD MINUTE. Great through ball/centering pass and a quick kick past the goalie. 2-0 and the rout is on.
Czechs better do something. They are just getting out played…I think.
After seeing these giant stadiums filled to the brim, it's hard not to give "futbol" some credit. This kind of popularity is unrivaled, even in American college football. People just love this stuff.
And the Czechs are back in the game, netting a GOAL in the 51st minute. A great move by the Czech player to get around the goalie and tuck it home. I'm pleased that both teams have scored in both games I've watched so far. Nothing turns me off about soccer worse than goose eggs on the board.
Small collision just occurred. Both players fell, then immediately got up and said nothing. THAT'S what I want to see. Play the sport, don't run your mouth, don't complain for penalties and don't act as if you were taken down by sniper fire.
Another thing I have to give soccer, there are some smoking hot females at these matches and the camera operators aren't afraid to show them. Kinda like watching an NBA game.
Noticed that I haven't written nearly as much during this game as the first. Am I paying less attention? Maybe. But I also think that I'm starting to get used to the many things that initially caused me to pause.
Also, this game hasn't been quite as interesting, I think?
RUSSIA EXTENDS THE LEAD TO TWO. Some player whose name I can't pronounce or spell has his second of the game. He DRILLED it right past the goal keeper and with 10 minutes left, it doesn't look like the Czechs can do much now.
RUSSIA PUTS THE NAIL IN THE COFFIN. Only minutes after the previous goal, the Russians strike again. Great ball handling and a superb individual effort to fire the ball past the goalie. Keeper got a hand on the ball, but it wasn't enough to keep it out of the net. Out of the four teams I've watched today, the Russians seem to be the most dominant.
The Czechs play Greece in their next game. I anticipate that to be…ugly? Not very fun to watch? I'd take Greece over them right now, just based on the surge they were able to generate late in their game against Poland.
Game over. Russia takes it 4-1. Once they went up big, I lost a lot of interest, just like the 4-0 Kings win in the Stanley Cup final. Blowouts are boring once they happen and this one didn't happen until late. Generally, was a pretty entertaining game. The more goals, the better as far as I'm concerned. But there weren't any red cards in this game and the penalty shot in the Greece/Poland game added extra drama. Poland/Greece wins the day.
My Overall Take After Day One
Unfortunately, this just doesn't feel as dramatic as the World Cup, and that was to be expected. But I feel that I was able to sit here and watch soccer without complaining for the most part. I still hate seeing players pretend they're hurt and ties infuriate me. There was some drama in the first game with a penalty save and some strange calls, so I was pretty entertained. The Russia/Czech game wasn't as good because it was one-sided, but still interesting. I like goals. The more the better. I don't know how I'll feel as I continue to watch group play, but I'm guessing that once the teams emerge from the groups, the soccer will be far more entertaining.

By the end of the 15th century there was a widely held impression that the papacy refused to reform itself, despite the relative success of the Fifth Lateran Council —17 , which was called by Pope Julius II. The church also was plagued by the perception that professional theologians were more interested in scholastic debates than in the practical matters of everyday Christian belief and practice. Despite, or because of, the rampant abuses of the hierarchy , there were efforts to reform the church.
The most notable reformers were the Christian humanists, including Erasmus and Thomas More , who advocated an evangelical piety and rejected many of the medieval superstitions that had crept into church teaching.

Wolf Pack Pounding (Bi-Sexual Werewolf).
Although condemned for heresy, Girolamo Savonarola represented the ascetic reformist piety that existed in the late 15th century. The answer that he eventually found, the conviction that God is merciful not because of anything that the sinner can do but because of a freely given grace that is received by faith alone the doctrine of justification by faith , was not utterly without precedent in the Roman Catholic theological tradition, but, in the form in which Luther stated it, there appeared to be a fundamental threat to Catholic teaching and sacramental life.
And in his treatise The Babylonian Captivity of the Church , issued in , Luther denounced the entire system of medieval Christendom as an unwarranted human invention foisted on the church. Luther insisted throughout his life, however, that the primary object of his critique was not the life but the doctrine of the church—not the corruption of the ecclesiastical structure but the distortion of the gospel.
Thus, the pope was the Antichrist because he represented and enforced a substitute religion in which the true church, the bride of Christ, had been replaced by—and identified with—an external juridical institution that laid claim to the obedience due to God himself. When, after repeated warnings, Luther refused such obedience, he was excommunicated by Pope Leo X in He did, however, reject the Catholic teaching of transubstantiation in favour of what has come to be called consubstantiation.
The Anglican Reformation strove to retain the historical episcopate and steered a middle course, liturgically and even doctrinally, between Roman Catholicism and continental Protestantism, particularly under Queen Elizabeth I.
The polemical Roman Catholic accusation—which the mainline Reformers vigorously denied—that these various species of conservative Protestantism, with their orthodox dogmas and quasi-Catholic forms, were a pretext for the eventual rejection of most of traditional Christianity , seemed to be confirmed by the emergence of the radical Reformation. Nevertheless, the Anabaptists retained, in their doctrines of God and Christ, the historical orthodoxy of the Nicene Creed. Those Protestants who went on to repudiate orthodox Trinitarianism as part of their Reformation claimed to be carrying out, more consistently than Luther or Calvin or the Anabaptists had done, the full implications of the rejection of Roman Catholicism, which they all had in common.

The tweets he selects and affirms are then sent out to the world, with messages spanning the gamut of his interests: mercy, creation care, inequality, war, work, service, and the sanctity of life, to name a few. Which in itself would perhaps not be very interesting. Tweeting, for Francis, helps to lift the shrouds of secrecy hanging over the interior world of the Vatican by making his intentions open and accessible, a goal he has sought out in other aspects of his papacy as well. He is someone we can trust, a transparent pope with aspirations like those of Jesus, whom he is commissioned to imitate—to lead humankind into goodness.
Imitation of Christ means, of course, replicating the upset and agitation induced by Jesus as well as his radically unpretentious lifestyle, and Francis has succeeded on both counts, for better or worse.

For starters, those committed to libertarian economics have been entirely unable to come up with a compelling rebuke for Francis, though they have tried. Perhaps the greatest vice of our age is the belief that certain domains are simply amoral—economics, for instance. He reorganized the courts and extended the rule of law to every part of his kingdom except Wales.
In the first orderly succession since , his son Henry VIII took over the makings of a modern nation-state. But notwithstanding its distinctiveness, the English Church was a relic of the Middle Ages. It had failed to allocate resources in accordance with changes in the population, leaving many parishes nearly empty and many crowded parishes with too few priests. It was a stagnant pool of wealth, a venal and ritualistic institution inadequate to the needs of its increasingly sophisticated communicants.
The Lollards, an heretical sect founded in the late fourteenth century partially on the teachings of John Wycliffe and driven underground in the early fifteenth, revived, especially in the growing middle class, and found common cause with Cambridge reformer Thomas Bilney and followers of Martin Luther and Ulrich Zwingli.
So much of the English clergy had been under lay control for so long that the whole Church was ripe for cooption by the state.
Biblical misunderstandings
A national Church could not have survived in England had social, economic, and intellectual ferment not already turned many faithful away from Rome. In , the year he ascended the throne, Henry VIII received papal dispensation to marry his elder brother's widow, Catherine of Aragon. He also engaged the services of Thomas Wolsey, who for a time virtually ruled in his stead.
Wolsey built a collection of secular and ecclesiastical titles unusual even in England-lord chancellor, Archbishop of York, cardinal legate, and so on. At the height of his power he merged Church and state in his own person. His high-handedness earned him many enemies.
Opinion: On Reformation Day, we need another Luther
His meddling in Continental affairs created an imbalance of power. Even so Wolsey might have stayed in favor had Henry not decided at an ebb of English prestige to divorce the Emperor's aunt. Henry was evidently motivated not only by romantic love, but also by his perceived necessity of having a male heir to the throne of England. Being educated and pious, he knew Leviticus " If a man takes his brother's wife He seems to have believed-or convinced himself-that his lack of a legitimate son was a divine penalty unmitigated by papal winking.
Catherine, now past childbearing age, had borne him only a daughter, Mary.
Henry's mistress Anne Boleyn was presumably fertile, but she insisted on marriage, and apparent impossibility, and Henry was pleased to indulge her. For three years Wolsey tried to enlist France in a scheme to free the papacy from imperial domination so that the Pope might gracefully accede to Henry's demands. The Pope meanwhile sought an arrangement acceptable to emperor and king.
Christianity in the 14th century
All their efforts failed, and Wolsey died in en route to his trial for treason. Henry took a series of steps to sever all ties with Rome. At his behest Parliament replaced papal with royal authority gradually, by means of statutes passed between and Although his unilateral divorce and remarriage, made necessary by Anne's pregnancy, would have complicated his return to the Catholic fold, he might have repaired relations with Rome right up to passage of the Act of Supremacy , which declared that the English monarch had always been "Supreme Head of the Church of England. Unlike Luther and some German princes who had taken advantage of the Reformation by naming themselves "supreme bishop" of their several realms, he left most dogmas intact.
Revolt was his aim, not revolution. Once on his new course, however, Henry followed it with the single-mindedness of a revolutionary and killed many objectors, including Lord Chancellor Thomas More. Urged on by his new Archbishop of Canterbury, Thomas Cranmer, Henry began in to shut down all such institutions and quickened his pace after the Pilgrimage of Grace uprising in the North nearly dethroned him.
In four brutal years he dissolved every monastery, convent, and chantry in England and confiscated their assets, doubling his annual income. Henry owed his newly discovered spiritual authority to Parliament. Had he kept the monastic lands, he might have been wealthy enough to rule without Parliamentary appropriations.
But he sold numerous tracts to the gentry in order to finance a useless war with Scotland and other projects. Because Henry and his successors continued to depend on Parliament, England eventually became the model of constitutional monarchy.

Mingling. Riffing. Images. Lyrics. Prose. Poised.
I like the single page approach.
A piece of writing. A photo. Sometimes both.
I'm still sifting through the compost, the dust and decay of decades and letting go of things, becoming lighter, a lightness of being. And. Seeing. The light of day.
So much of my stuff is on shelves, stored, archived.
I'm vaguely working towards making a worktop so that I can spread things out, a landscape to explore, rather than stacked on shelves, a mountain to climb. I'd rather wander than climb.
Running became dancing, became working, became writing, teaching and photography. An approach, my attitude became what it was about. Doing wasn't what it was about. It was about my attitude to doing. This is what I vaguely held onto from that experience of thinking about running in my teenage years, and later with dancing, although I think the alcohol and cigarettes blurred my perception. And later going to college shifted everything, an earthquake of consciousness.
I like the idea of picking, plucking, a line from a song, a poem, from anywhere, and riffing off that.
And strangely, and these thoughts and feelings resonate with a film I made at college in 1979, 'to see ourselves' - which was about 'ways of seeing' ourselves seeing. I still have the slides from that film. Be interesting what I will make of them now, maybe to arrange and re-arrange them in another way.

Q: Spring Boot, define datetime precision to millis in REST response I created a Spring web application that offers REST API. I'm using Spring Boot 2.x, Spring Data REST, Spring HATEOAS, Spring JPA, Hibernate 5.3, Mysql.
I'm also using jackson-datatype-jsr310.
I'm working with UTC dates in the entire application and I'm storing UTC dates in Mysql.
In my bean dates are defined as:
    @NotNull
    @Column(nullable = false)
    private Instant validUntil;

Everything works but when the API are consumed dates are returned in this format:
"validUntil" : "2019-11-05T22:59:59.999999Z"

I want to truncate every datetime in my application to milliseconds, so the date should be:
"validUntil" : "2019-11-05T22:59:59.999Z"
In my @Configuration I'm using a custom JacksonModule:
    @Bean
    public Module customJacksonModule() {
        SimpleModule customJacksonModule = new SimpleModule();
        customJacksonModule.addSerializer(ConstraintViolationException.class, constraintViolationExceptionSerializer());
        customJacksonModule.addSerializer(ValidationException.class, validationExceptionSerializer());
        customJacksonModule.addSerializer(cloud.optix.server.exceptions.ValidationException.class, customValidationExceptionSerializer());
        return customJacksonModule;
    }

I tried several approaches but noone worked so far:
1. Application.properties
I put spring.jackson.serialization.write-date-timestamps-as-nanoseconds = false in my application.propreties
2. Custom ObjectMapper
I tried to change objectMapper's settings.
@Autowired(required = true)
public void configureJackson(ObjectMapper jackson2ObjectMapper) {
    jackson2ObjectMapper.setSerializationInclusion(JsonInclude.Include.NON_NULL);
    jackson2ObjectMapper.configure(SerializationFeature.WRITE_DATE_TIMESTAMPS_AS_NANOSECONDS, false);
}

3. Removed @EnableHypermediaSupport
@EnableHypermediaSupport(type = {EnableHypermediaSupport.HypermediaType.HAL})

All those actions didn't change how the date is returned to the client. I'd like some advice to understand/debug why the date is not returned in the right format.
As additional note, I found that in com.fasterxml.jackson.datatype.jsr310.ser.InstantSerializerBase in serialize() method I've neither useNanoseconds property, nor default formatter.
However the property spring.jackson.serialization.write-dates-as-timestamps in application.properties has effect on the date format.

A: Did you try just annotating your validUntil field with @JsonFormat like below.
@JsonFormat(shape = JsonFormat.Shape.STRING, pattern = "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSZ")
@NotNull
@Column(nullable = false)
private Instant validUntil;

A: You can configure your ObjectMapper to use a specific date format cross the application:
jackson2ObjectMapper.setDateFormat(new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSz"));

A: You need to replace InstantSerializer is being used by Jackson.
@Configuration
public class JacksonConfig {

    @Bean
    public Jackson2ObjectMapperBuilderCustomizer jsonCustomizer() {
        return builder -> builder.serializers(new CustomInstantSerializer());
    }

    private static class CustomInstantSerializer extends InstantSerializer {

        private static final DateTimeFormatter UTC_DATE_FORMAT = DateTimeFormatter
                .ofPattern("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSS'Z'").withZone(ZoneOffset.UTC);

        private CustomInstantSerializer() {
            super(InstantSerializer.INSTANCE, null, UTC_DATE_FORMAT);
        }

    }

}

You can put JacksonConfig class in the config package of the project, for example.
Also, if it will not work, check that SpringBoot can really find it. Set a break point in the default constructor of InstantSerializer or add temporal logging there.


The "S" trim level, the sportier version of the iconic Fiat car, will be given its world première in Geneva. The distinctive look of the 500S includes sportier bumpers, with integrated fog lights at the front, plus special side skirts and spoiler; exclusive "Satin Graphite" paint for the door handles and tailgate, mirror fairings and wheel rims; rear privacy glass, chrome exhaust tailpipe and "black grained" front air intakes, as well as a bold rear grille. Alloy 15" wheel rims with special "Satin Graphite" finish and 16" rims with matt diamond black treatment are also available upon request. The exclusive sportiness of the 500S is also reflected in the new body colours: Metallic Azure and matt Alpine Green, with dark interiors. The seductive appeal of the New 500S is enhanced by the black seats and roof lining that contrast with the door panels and seat edges, which are available in blue, white and yellow. The interior is available on request in Frau leather with white or azure details. In addition, embellishing the passenger compartment, are "Satin Graphite" details on the dashboard fascia and special sports steering wheel.
The dashboard incorporates a UconnectTM 7" HD LIVE touchscreen with tablet effect and HD display, the next frontier of infotainment, as standard equipment. This system implements a wide range of functions, including UconnectTM LIVE services as standard, Bluetooth hands-free system, voice recognition and plenty of music options in addition to FM/AM radio. The driver can connect their multimedia devices via USB or using the 3.5mm auxiliary jack, or stream music from a compatible smartphone using Bluetooth. In addition, the new UconnectTM 7 "HD LIVE is available on request with the integrated mirroring system for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, digital radio (DAB) and a 3D integrated TomTom navigation system. The new Fiat 500S complements the 500 range with the latest audio experience from Beats by Dr. Dre, the system designed to revolutionise the way in which music can be heard inside the vehicle.
The Beats AudioTM sound system consists of 8-channel amplifiers with 440 watts of power; two dome tweeters installed in the front pillars; two 165 mm midwoofers in the front doors; two full-range 165 mm speakers in the rear side panels; and one 200 mm subwoofer in the centre of the luggage compartment, in the spare wheel compartment.
With the 7" TFT screen for the speedometer and driving instruments-standard on the new 500S-the car's dashboard delivers a fully-digital driving experience that nevertheless retains the classic 500 instrument layout, complete with circular cluster and round buttons.
Visitors to the stand can admire a 500S 1.3 MultiJet 95 HP in all-new matt Alpine Green livery, with two-tone black/ivory leather interior. The power unit represents the best of today's small diesel engineering technology: it emits only 89 grams of CO2 per kilometre and meets Euro 6 standards while guaranteeing outstanding performance. Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h takes only 10.7 seconds and the top speed is 180 km/h. It is also fuel-efficient and eco-friendly: 3.4 litres of diesel are needed for 100 kilometres. Finally, a little record: the New 500 is the only car in its segment, together with Fiat Panda, to offer a diesel engine.
The second 500S is a convertible with interiors upholstered in a special black and white fabric. The central seat features a "Texfilm" application with "Sportball" graphics. The seat design is completed with a two-tone embroidered "500" logo in silver and the characteristic "S" motif with white side insert. The Fiat 500S Cabrio inherits all the winning features of the sedan, including compact external dimensions, best-in-class safety, habitability with four comfortable seats and excellent engines in terms of performance, fuel economy and respect for the environment. The silhouette is enhanced by an innovative sliding roof, a marvel of design in its own right.

Scientist vs. Cooper: The Interview, Round 3

Rarely has a music fan like myself been blessed with the genuine friendship and kindness – and unparalleled access – to an artist of the stature of legendary sound engineer Hopeton Brown, better known as "Scientist." Watching Scientist at work recording, mixing, dubbing – whether in the studio, during a sound check, or at a live show – is completely mesmerizing, educational, and even at times, inspirational; Scientist's professionalism, incredible focus, attention to detail, efficiency, and commitment to producing the very best sounding music, no matter the situation, is unmatched.
For this segment of our interview, Scientist and I got together on July 31 at a Thai restaurant in Los Angeles – the same place we first met at the end of last year. Although we could have easily talked for hours, it ended up being closer to forty-five minutes because Scientist was pressed for time; he had to go run the sound check for his and Hempress Sativa's phenomenal show at the Dub Club later that evening.
What follows is a transcription of "Round 3" of my multi-part interview of Scientist. It has been modified only slightly for clarity and space considerations.
Q: Greetings Scientist, great to see you again!
Scientist: Great to see you too, Stephen.
Q: Scientist, at the end of last year, the first time we ever met, you called legendary singer, producer, sound engineer, and your close friend, Pat Kelly, on the phone in Jamaica. We were talking and all of a sudden you picked up the phone – as we were talking about King Tubby and the relationships between the sound engineers that worked for Tubby – and you called Pat. You handed me the phone briefly, and I was so nervous and also excited to be speaking with Pat Kelly! [But] he was so cool and down to earth [when we talked on the phone.] Sadly, of course, I'm reminding you of this because Pat died about two weeks ago following complications from kidney disease. So I wanted to start [our] discussion today by offering my condolences; I know Pat was a good friend of yours, that you knew [each other] for a [very] long time. Do you remember how you first met Pat Kelly?
Scientist: Yes, the first place I met Pat Kelly was [at] King Tubby's studio. He used to do a lot of mixing with Bunny Lee. I had the keys to the studio, so I used to stay until the time that Pat and Bunny Lee [left].
Q: Roughly how old were you when you met Pat?
Scientist: About seventeen.
Q: Did you become friends right away, or did it take some time for the friendship to develop?
Scientist: I would say I became friends with him right away.
Q: Was there something [where] you could tell you guys were of the same mind and were going to be friends? Was there something between you, or just the understanding of the music? Or what was it?
Scientist: Well, let me say it this way, most people they feel threatened of their job. Pat – I didn't get that energy from him. Because Pat would mix the "A" sides for Bunny Lee, and then Pat would allow me to mix the dub sides. And you know, it went on for weeks and months and he never [felt] threatened. If I tried to [do] the same thing with somebody else, they want to do it all because they [would] feel threatened.
Q: Was Pat [working] with Tubby before you?
Scientist: Yes.
Q: For how much longer was Pat [working] with Tubby before you [started working there]?
Scientist: At least a couple of years. [But] [h]e wasn't "working there" at the time; [he] used to come there to do work for Bunny Lee.
Q: Oh I see. Okay.
Scientist: And then I would record Pat Kelly and some of the Bunny Lee [tracks].
Q: What albums or songs, if any, did you and Pat collaborate on together if you know?
Scientist: The list is long. The artists [included] Ken Boothe, Alton Ellis, Delroy Wilson, Johnny Clarke, and [many other] artists.
Q: So you guys would be in the studio engineering together on those artists' records, mixing together?
Scientist: Yes. At Tubby's. And then when Pat Kelly would come with Bunny Lee to Channel One studio, I would do the recording and Pat used to be there as a singer. Being around Pat Kelly, I never felt negative energy from him. Everybody else, they [felt] that their job was threatened [by my presence in the studio]. Not with [Pat].
Q: When it comes to music, what do you think Pat Kelly will be most remembered for?
Scientist: Well he [had] a unique voice. The man did him thing. And one of the unfair thing[s] that I spoke to [Pat Kelly's] wife, Jackie, about yesterday [is], you have all these producers who are sitting around like vultures. When I look on[, for example,] Ebay, all of sudden a Pat Kelly record is [selling for] over one hundred dollars; it's [exploitation].
Q: Do you think there'll be a way for Pat Kelly's wife, if everyone is going to be making money off of Pat's [incredible] legacy, for his wife to make some money, too?
Scientist: Well what I told her to do is, get each and every copy [of the music comprising Pat's discography], put them out, and re-release them. And when the [record companies and other entities] come to you and say they have a contract, you remind them that you can't have a contract with a dead person. When the person dies, the contract also dies. And then if they try to bother her about money, it's the wife legally who has power of attorney; they have to satisfy all the back-royalties.
Q: Scientist, you've started to [speak about] this [already but], putting music aside, what kind of man was Pat Kelly?
Scientist: A good person. Decent person. No bad-minded business [about him]. Not jealous. Humble. Quiet. [Could] be very deadly if he [wanted to be]. Because a lot of people don't know that he was a martial arts expert.
Q: I didn't know that, wow. He did karate and stuff?
Scientist: Yeah. Black belt.
Q: Wow. Cool.
Scientist: But I've seen people get up into his face, and he just laughed it off –
Q: [He was a] cool cucumber?
Scientist: Very cool.
Q: Before switching topics, is there anything else you wanted to say about Pat Kelly – as a man, or about his music career?
Scientist: Um, what I see happening with all these wicked people, it's like they get extended life. And a person like Pat Kelly who [was] just so humble. So mild, so well composed –
Q: [Dies] too young?
Scientist: Yeah and leaves all these fuc*ing a**holes around.
Q: Makes you wonder why?
Scientist: Well, hear the conclusion. I hope that there is something better than this messed up planet we live on named earth.
Q: On a happier note, what brings us together today, to move on from the somberness of Pat's passing, is the promise of a very joyful evening: You're perform[ing] tonight at the Dub Club in L.A. with Hempress Sativa. Before getting into some of the details concerning tonight's show, and your work with Hempress Sativa on her debut album, and [then] on her dub album, how did the connection between you[rself] and Hempress happen – how did you first link up?
Scientist: Her husband and I became good friends.
Q: This is Chris "Conquering Lion"?
Scientist: Yeah.
Q: And how did you become good friends with him?
Scientist: He asked me to come and mix some [songs] for [Hempress Sativa]. And I'm a very good judge of character. He explained to me, "we're not really a record company," and I acknowledged that both [he and Hempress Sativa] are just starting out [in the music business]. So I just did it for them.
Q: Given your undisputed status as a legendary sound engineer, you have the luxury of picking and choosing who it is you work with. What was it about Hempress Sativa as a singer, artist, and person that made you want to work with her?
Scientist: Well I know her father real good. And I don't know if you know that album I sent you, "Jamaica, Jamaica" [with] Brigadier Jerry?
Q: Yes.
Scientist: That's [Hempress Sativa's] father playing drums on that album.
Q: Oh I didn't realize that at all, I'm so happy you told me.
Scientist: Ilawi –
Q: They call him [Albert] "Ilawi Malawi" [Johnson]?
Q: And he was the primary selector for the "Jah Love" sound system that Brigadier Jerry [would perform on]?
Scientist: Yeah. Every Friday evening, they would come, and I would cut dub plates. And then I recorded that album that he played drums on, "Jamaica, Jamaica."
Q: What do you think of Hempress Sativa's potential as a singer as her career continues?
Scientist: She has a very good potential. She's speaking the truth through her lyrics even though some people might take offense. But as Bob [Marley] says, "Who the cap fit, let them wear it." Because here's what, music, and like with someone like Bob Marley and reggae, it helped to open up a lot of people's eyes. And it helped to overturn some of the injustices.
Q: Truth and rights?
Q: Respect. It's often been observed that the reggae music business is particularly tough for female artists. Do you have any thoughts about this, and what do you think Hempress Sativa needs to focus on, or to try to improve [on], to really break it big in music?
Scientist: (Laughing) Well, damn. It's not just only music. Because right here in the United States, you have women and men doing the exact same job and [they're] not [getting] paid the same. And when it comes to a woman, especially to have any part in the music business, it's like carrying tuna to a shark tank.
Q: I have a few specific questions concerning your dub album with Hempress Sativa, your process when dubbing, and [the] choices you made, but first, before teaming up on the dub album, you were involved in the mixing of Hempress's debut 2017 album, "Unconquerebel," true?
Q: Did you mix that entire debut album, or just some of the tracks?
Scientist: [There are] [a]bout two tracks on it I didn't mix. But the bulk of the album, yes.
Q: Before getting into your dub album with Hempress Sativa, which I think was released about six months on the heels of [her] debut album, could you talk briefly about your process for mixing the tracks on [Hempress's] debut album? Was your process for mixing tracks on Hempress Sativa's debut album the same as you use for any artist you work with? [Another way of asking this is,] does your style, your way of mixing an album ever change depending on the artist you're working with?
Scientist: Well you were in the studio with me when I was recording Sly and Robbie [earlier this year].
Q: (Smiling) Yes.
Scientist: The first, most important part of it is the recording, not the mixing. That is where a lot of people get sidetracked. The dub? That's just the performance. It's like if someone asked you to paint a lovely scenery, but the canvas that your gonna paint on is dirty.
Q: Which is why you've always emphasized when we've been together, and I'm sure at the sound check later today I'll see, how important it is that the microphones and [all the technological equipment] is capturing the sound as perfectly as it can. Because it's the recording that will last forever.
Scientist: Well, yeah, the recording is what defines and highlights everything else.
Q: Because after that you'll be manipulating the recording, so the recording is the original thing, the artwork that's created in the studio by the artists that you will then, you, as the dubber, or mixer, later, will manipulate?
Scientist: Well it's easier. [Because] [f]ixing while you're mixing only uses up a bunch of studio time. The better the recording, the better the mix. And the better the sound. You want the kick drum to be as fat as it can be. Look [at] it this way. If somebody in Africa finds a diamond, that diamond is worthless until it gets polished. So you have to polish the diamond to bring out the brilliance. But a lot of people believe you [can] record sloppy and just dub. No. The first thing, like what you witnessed there with Sly and Robbie, the recording process has to be right first.
Q: I listened closely to Hempress Sativa's debut album and compared those tracks to the ones on the dub album, and as a result, I have a few questions that may help shed some light and demystify what your process is when you're dubbing a song. [Because] when I'm in the studio watching you, sometimes some of the things that you're doing go way over my head. I can see you with the instruments, but I don't really know what you're doing. I know it sounds good to my ears. So this is why I want to ask you a few questions about the sounds I'm hearing [when you dub an album]. One thing that drew my attention about "Revolution Dub," the dub for the first track on Unconquerebel (called "Revolution"), is a crank-like percussion sound. And I want to play it for you (playing "Revolution Dub"). You hear that sound?
Q: This same cranking percussion sound is heard only at the very beginning of the non-dub version of the song, but you can hear it used throughout in the dub version. What is that instrument that's making that cranking sound?
Scientist: That scraping sound, it's a percussion [instrument]; [it's called a] güiro.
Q: Is the use of that cranking percussion-type instrument a common technique [to use] when dubbing?
Scientist: No, that's just a percussion sound that the musicians choose to play.
Q: But you chose as the dubber, to bring that cranking sound in [more to the song; to highlight it].
Scientist: When you're doing dub, you use certain instruments to capture the person listening. And then, if you notice, it disappears out of the music. So you lead them on a different journey.
Q: Whenever I'm [listening] to your music I go out to space.
Q: But what I'm trying to understand is, how is it as the guy that created this dub ("Revolution Dub" by Hempress Sativa), [how did you think], you know what, I'm gonna add more of that cran[king] [percussion] sound. How did that come to you? Is it just intuitive?
Scientist: Here's another the thing about dub. You have to also know the music. Like when you noticed I was working with [keyboardist] [Michael] Hyde in the studio, when I was working on [those tracks for] Sublime, you have to know the music. Your ears have to be musically trained to know when the musicians are playing incorrect chords. So that's the first thing, you have to also know the music. It's not [like] you're gonna dub [successfully] [without] any sense of what the musicians sound like; you don't know anything about music.
Q: That cranking sound – the reason why it [came] to my attention [is] I realized that that was [an element] of the song, the dub version, [that makes it] kind of addictive.
Scientist: That's what tells you. It's how you feature it. You have to feature it at a certain spot so it's not clashing with the other instruments. You use it – okay, the first time I smoked weed; most people smoke weed – they always trying to get back the same high, right? So it's like the hook is the stuff that gets you started. Like the appetizer. You're gonna have a meal, so you want something to build your appetite. So you use that to build an appetite, and after the person's taste buds gets [warmed] up, then you give them the main-course meal.
Q: You only hear the güiro in the very beginning of the [non-dub] version of the song "Revolution."
Scientist: Dub is like writing music; it's a new musical composition.
Q: In the dub version of Hempress Sativa's song "Skin Teeth," modeled off of the Horace Andy classic, most of the lyrics are dropped out, and then, there is another percussion-type sound which seems to be reverberated throughout the track, or maybe echoing. Can you identify that sound for me? (Playing song.)
Scientist: That's just adding delay on the guitar. [You] get "echo one" to chase "echo two."
Q: Ok, pause for a second.
Scientist: And that's not a percussion sound, that's a keyboard sound. It's a piano. Part of the rhythm section.
Q: And you said something about "echo one" chasing "echo two?"
Scientist: The reason it sounds like that is because you get echo one to chase echo two. You know, like something running after something [else].
Q: [I'm] imagin[ing] a Pac-Man.
Scientist: Yeah. You have musical hieroglyphics. In musical hieroglyphics, that's a "dog chasing the cat."
Q: [And] is that sound or sound effect [being used there in the track]?
Scientist: [That's a] [s]ound effect. And the reason why it came out like that is because echo one was chasing echo two; in musical hieroglyphics, the dog [was] chasing the cat. So if I [said] to [King] Tubby, "I'm gonna make the dog chase the cat, a lot of people would be like "What the hell is he talking about?"
Q: But [King Tubby] would know?
Scientist: He would know. Because we developed certain language [to communicate with one another in the studio]. If I say[, for example,] "The angel's wings fly over the cliff," he'd know what I [was] talking about. If I say, "Hey, how about the high-hat chase the woodpecker –"
Q: By the way, is that a common dubbing technique – to do that with that sound? To use that [echo one chasing echo two] sound? Because again, when I listened to it [closely], I was trying to figure out what was it in the song where, suddenly, I [felt like I had journeyed] to space. So that [is] one of those times.
Scientist: Here's what, as I said before, we have all been programmed. I didn't choose it, it chose me. And fortunately for me, I'm the only person who has certain knowledge [about dub and sound engineering generally]. People [have] tried to do it for twenty years, tried to figure it out . . . . (shrugging).
Q: I also want to ask about your killer dub of [Hempress Sativa's] massive track "Wah Da Da Deng," which you call the "Boom Dub." To me, this might be the most wicked cut on the dub album. That dub is almost entirely instrumental. You dropped out all of the lyrics in that song except for (1) a [short] intro "In comes the unconquerable, your highness, Hempress Sativa, the lyrical machine. When the lioness roars, no dog barks"; and (2) one [short] verse which you hear with about 50 seconds left in the song: "Hempress Sativa pan di mic, and a-go rip it up again." It's just a wicked dub. Out of all the lyrics that you could have chosen from the original song to splice into the dub version, how and why did you decide on [using those small snippets from the original song]?
Scientist: The punchline[s]. That's what's gonna resonate in people's head[s].
Q: In Round 2 of our continuing interview, I asked how much time you spent listening to an artist's work like with Hempress Sativa, in order to dub their music or mix it. And I think a lot of people were surprised though when they read [in our] "Round 2" interview when you said you didn't really listen ahead of time to what an artist has done before coming to work with you. That you don't need to go and listen [to all their work]. [I know I was.] I would envision you really having to sit there and focus, and listen to Hempress Sativa's song like "Wah Da Da Deng" a whole heap of times before you could decide [how to mix it – and make choices like what lyrics to use, and which to drop out, when making a dub.] But when we met last time, you said, this just isn't the case. Can you possibly say just a bit more how, when dubbing, you make the great artistic and creative choices you do – like you did for "Wah Da Da Deng" – about what lyrics to retain in a dub, and maybe accentuate/highlight?
Scientist: You have to anticipate what the musician is going to do next. And then when you're setting up the console, and we're mixing the "A" side and getting the song ready, you have to start to memorize the song at that time. You have to have photographic memory. Once I hear a song one time, I remember every part [of the song] forever. [Now,] [f]irst, before you mix any song, you have to get the levels right. You have to get the correct tone. And then, after [learning] the [entire] song, you have to anticipate what the musicians are going to play next. Like when I listen to [legendary] [drummer] Sly [Dunbar] play, I know where he's gonna play every roll. I know what [he's] gonna do before he does it. You have musical anticipation where certain things play in codes.
Q: There are many questions I still have about your dubbing techniques, and your style of dubbing, mixing, and recording – which many have tried to imitate – but time militates that we move on, for now, and maybe, when we do the next part of this interview, we can revisit this topic. Okay?
Scientist: Okay.
Q: I say time is of the essence because, of course, after a fairly lengthy hiatus from the Dub Club in Los Angeles, you'll be back in the house tonight to do the live mixing for Hempress Sativa's scheduled show. Do you remember what show it was you last mixed at the Dub Club?
Scientist: Michael Prophet's last show there [on October 4, 2017].
Q: How come it's been such a long time since you've done a show at the Dub Club?
Scientist: Well I don't like to wear out my welcome.
Q: But Scientist, your face [would be] on the "Mount Rushmore of Dub" if they had one. So you're welcome every single time you walk into the Dub Club. How could that not be?
Scientist: Well if you eat the same thing every day that's delicious, after a while it doesn't taste good anymore. If you keep smoking the same weed every day, after a while –
Q: You have to switch up the strain? (laughing)
Scientist: (Laughing) Yeah.
Q: Makes a lot of sense. Scientist, what are some of the challenges of mixing a live show at the Dub Club?
Scientist: Having the proper sound system. Getting people to break out of their orthodox way of how they want to do [things].
Q: Tonight, when you are in the sound booth during Hempress Sativa's show, can you describe a bit what you'll be doing with the controls? And how does mixing a live show and what you're doing with the control board differ than when you're mixing in a studio?
Scientist: Ok I want to give you an analogy. One is swimming into a swimming pool, and one is swimming in the Atlantic Ocean with twenty-foot waves. Because the studio is a controlled environment; [a] live [show] is uncontrolled.
Q: Now we have to wrap this interview up so you can get to the sound check, so: Can you talk a bit about the importance of the sound check and, as an engineer, can you describe how the sound check is done?
Scientist: Well, yeah. The first thing is that the biggest enemy is the guitar amplifiers. Because the standard way that the guitar amplifier gets set up fools the [sound] engineer. And this is why you can see the biggest, [most famous] artists onstage [at shows] playing stuff, and you can't hear it. Because the monitor and the guitar amplifier is giving the engineer a false perspective of what the music really is.
Q: Scientist, thanks so much for this time and special window into your work. I wish you tremendous success with tonight's show!
Scientist: Thank you.
Please check back in a few months for the next installment of my continuing interview of Scientist.

A Fine Dam Tool For Clearing Drains
Jan. 21, 2021: Last fall, the Richmond District Shop at the Virginia Department of Transportation fabricated a ram attachment for the Prince George area headquarters to use in its ongoing battle against beaver dams.
The dams block pipes and other drainage facilities in Dinwiddie and Prince George counties.
"The Petersburg Residency requested a ram be built" for a grading machine, said Richmond District Equipment Shop Manager Travis Elliott. "They borrowed one from the Waverly area headquarters and it worked great for them."
Travis said Scott Ohrum, the shop's welder / fabricator, traveled to Waverly to examine the attachment and to understand how it was made.
"The ram is the first of its kind that has been made here in the district," said Elliott. "Scott ... did a great job."
The tool was constructed from a 20-foot piece of half-inch H beam that was then boxed in with half-inch plate.
The ram was welded to a plate that fit the grader.
Fabricating the tool required seven arc welding passes on each side to ensure proper penetration.
"The plate used to box in the H beam was welded every other four inches for the entire length of the ram," Elliott said.
Petersburg Residency Administrator Crystal Smith said the shop deserves recognition for developing this tool so quickly.
"It was completed in just two weeks," she said. "They had very little information from us to go on and were able to work magic to get this to us in such a short time frame.
"This will save us a ton of time, and we are just so pleased."
Improvement at Routes 288 and 250
Recently, the Virginia Department of Transportation's Richmond District completed work on an interchange improvement at routes 288 and 250 (Broad Street Road) in Goochland County.
District residents and county officials have been excited about the project, which enhances safety and operations at the interchange.
It includes additional turn lanes and traffic signals for higher traffic volumes and increased safety.
Previously, drivers had to wait to turn across traffic headed west, which would back up to the limit of the single turn lane.
Marcos Kocolis, Richmond District construction manager, appreciates how the district's environmental, materials, contract and traffic engineering teams worked together.
"There is a lot behind-the-scenes to get new signals into service. Each location has its challenges," Kocolis said. "The contractor [Curtis Contracting Inc.] had an experienced team that worked well with the department."
He said these improvements are important because counties around Richmond continue to grow.
"As Broad Street expands on the West End, projects like these will keep traffic safe and flowing," he said.
The project took about seven months to complete at a cost of about $3.7 million.
VDOT Employee Helps Make History
Dec. 9, 2020: Brian Staples, a bridge maintenance specialist in the Virginia Department of Transportation's Lynchburg District, has an unusual hobby.
It resulted in a unique donation to the National D-Day Memorial in Bedford.
Staples is a member of a model builders club that is part of the Internal Plastic Modelers Society (IPMS) and the Armor Modelers Preservation Society (AMPS).
Through this group, he has participated in numerous conventions and contests, learning the history behind the kits that are built and demonstrating his knowledge during show-and-tell discussions.
When another club member, Hugh Scrogham, passed away, 500 of his unassembled model kits remained and were donated to a veterans group for completion.
Among the unfinished builds was one special model that Staples and club member Bill Eggl took on -- a model of German U-boat.
"Bill did most of the build, Staples said. "He is retired, 84 years old, and spent the most time … I spent some time helping with the subassemblies."
As club photographer and newsletter editor, Staples documented the effort in detail.
Once complete, the U-boat, along with various military uniforms and other World War II artifacts from Hugh's collection, were donated to the D-Day memorial and are now on display.
"We are so glad that his memory lives on through his contribution to the D-Day Memorial," Staples said.

Counting the Crayfish
Dec. 7, 2020: The Virginia Department of Transportation's Bristol environmental division recently conducted a Big Sandy crayfish survey in the Russell Fork River, one of just a handful of rivers where the creature remains.
The Big Sandy crayfish (Cambarus callianus) is a freshwater crustacean found in streams and rivers in the Appalachian region of Kentucky, Virginia and West Virginia.
In May 2016, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service listed the Big Sandy crayfish as a threatened species.
The environmental team performed the survey due to an upcoming VDOT bridge superstructure replacement project.
That project may affect the crayfish.
"Presence of the Big Sandy crayfish is assumed for this section of the Russell Fork," said Bristol Environmental Natural Resource Specialist Ethan Virts. "We conducted the survey to confirm their presence and get the current population numbers of the Big Sandy crayfish in anticipation of the upcoming bridge work."
Assisting with the survey was Brian Watson, aquatic resources biologist / malacologist for the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources.
Twelve Big Sandy crayfish were captured and released.

Telltale's The Walking Dead begins its final season with new struggles against old foes
More open-ended combat options highlight gameplay changes in the franchise that made Telltale Games
By Owen S. Good Jul 21, 2018, 2:22pm EDT
Share All sharing options for: Telltale's The Walking Dead begins its final season with new struggles against old foes
The final season of Telltale Games' The Walking Dead will premiere in August and with it we will say goodbye to Clementine, one of the most memorable video game characters of the past two console generations, if not all time.
For The Walking Dead fans, Telltale Games yesterday published a video showcasing the first 15 minutes of the final season, setting up this story and demonstrating the new gameplay elements it will introduce. It's still a very narrative-driven tale, but notice in that first sequence that combat is a little more open-ended, as opposed to a panic event where only one button press or direction-push resolves the outcome. Clementine also gathers items in the world which appear to have modification or crafting purposes.
Ultimately, we see what Clementine has become, from a scared child asked for a mercy many adults could barely show, to a young girl with wide-open eyes and a healthy, survivalist distrust of the world, to a woman passing on the will to live and the means of doing so to her own protégé, among the ruins of a violent world gone mad.
The Walking Dead: The Final Season launches Aug. 14 on PlayStation 4, Windows PC and Xbox One, with a version for Nintendo Switch planned later. The full four-episode season will cost $19.99. Pre-orders will gain access to The Walking Dead: The Telltale Series Collection which includes all episodes in the preceding three seasons, plus The Walking Dead: Michonne and The Walking Dead: 400 Days.

In KB "Panorama" the professional vectorizer "Panorama-editor" version 13.6.7 has been developed. In the new version the import of data about a relief from files of ArcInfo Binary Grid format has been added. ArcInfo Binary Grid files can contain a digital elevation model, a slope model, and a relief shading. Data in binary Files ArcInfo Binary Grid is organised in the form of a regular grid. The digital elevation model contains elevation data as a cell value of regular grid. According to digital model of a relief the matrixes of heights MTW are formed. To store a relief shading, the value of the regular grid cell corresponds to the degree of illumination. The files containing a relief shading or model of slopes, are converted into matrixes of qualities MTQ. The task of importing matrixes of elevations also supports loading of the data from the SRTM, GeoTIFF, IMG, DEM formats. The import of the pyramid of matrixes of elevations of relief from the KMZ format into a set of MTW files, combined into a single MPT project, has been provided.
Panorama editor provides work with spatial data from Internet sources. Support of international standards and data exchange protocols OGC WMS, OGC WMTS and TMS allows you to receive any spatial information from services located in the Internet. Viewing DigitalGlobe images together with other spatial data allows you to get more visual information on the required territory. The services OpenStreetMap (Map), Kosmosnimki (Satellite), Virtual Earth (Satellite), Virtual Earth (Map), Yandex (Satellite), Yandex (Map) and others can act as a substrate for any spatial data.
The task "Update semantics from files Microsoft Office Excel (*.xls, *.xlsx)" has been improved. There are added the modes: Automatic setting of field matching by semantics key, Save/Restoring settings, Delete a list of semantics. In the dialog of semantics selection a search by key, code or name has been added. Execution of function of updating the list of semantics by all objects or objects selected according to certain conditions is accelerated.
In the "Map Editor", onto the "Graphic objects" panel, a mode has been added for quickly drawing "icons" on the map - graphic files of BMP, PNG, JPEG, ICO, TIF and others formats. The selected graphic files are copied into the map subdirectory with the name \map name.images. The relative path to the file is recorded into the semantics of the graphic object. When copying a map to another folder, you must also copy the subdirectory with graphic files. When scaling a map the raster symbol can decrease and increase. When packing a map in SITZ\MAPZ\MPTZ formats, graphic files are packed automatically.
The "Cut selected objects" item has been added into the "Edit" menu. This mode allows you to simultaneously copy to the clipboard and delete selected objects on the map. Cutting of selected objects is carried out by the Ctrl+X hotkey combination. "Quick deletion" of selected objects without copying to the clipboard - Ctrl+Delete.
Display, editing and search in area of objects for vector maps of large volume (from hundreds of thousands to tens of millions of objects in one set - a layer), located locally or on a GIS Server is accelerated. It is realised at the expense of optimisation of construction and updating of spatial indexes of the objects applied at display and search of the vector data.
Export to format KML is finished. Adjustment of styles of ranges, lines and icons on current graphic parametres of objects on a map is automated. Icons for dot objects are formed in a format png in a folder \imja_kml.icons. Possibility of preservation of a file kml and folders with icons in archive kmz is added.
Improved export to KML format. Automated setting of styles of polygons, lines and icons according to the current graphical parameters of objects on the map. Icons for point objects are generated in png format in the \ kml_name.icons folder. Added the ability to save the kml file and folder with icons to the kmz archive.
The display, editing and a search by area of objects for vector maps of large volume (from hundreds of thousands to tens of millions of objects in one set - a layer) located locally or on the GIS Server have been accelerated. This is implemented by optimizing the construction and updating of spatial indexes of objects used for displaying and searching vector data.
Export to KML format has been improved. A customizing the styles of polygons, lines and icons according to the current graphical parameters of objects on the map was automated. Icons for point objects are generated in png format in the \kml_name.icons folder. Ability has been added of saving the kml file and folder with icons into the kmz archive.
In the application "Geodesy editor", the "Land survey plan" mode has been improved. An algorithm for processing a cadastral map has been implemented, which provides variable formation of an XML document according to the MP_v06 and MP_v08_R04 schemes. So as in different versions of the XML-scheme of the land survey plan, XSD-directories of the values of the attributes of cadastral objects of different versions are used, they correspond to different versions of the digital classifier survey.rsc. For the MP_v06 XML scheme, the survey.v5.rscz classifier is used, for the MP_v08_R04 XML scheme - survey.v6.rscz. In the "Land Survey plan" dialog in the "Initial data" node in the "Information on geodetic base" table, the ability has been added to enter information about the state of the outside sign of the point, the center of the point and its mark.
The "Technical plan" mode has been improved. To fill in the attribute "Cadastral numbers of land plots on which the property is located" there is added an automatic search on the cadastral map of land plots on the territory of which the property is located. For the found plots, the value of the semantics "Cadastral number" is read and stored in the semantics 1350 of the real estate object for reuse.

"Workstation of cadastral engineer" supports variable land survey plan formation by XML-schemes of version 6 and 8
In KB "Panorama" the "Workstation of cadastral engineer" version 13.6.7 has been developed. In the new version in the "Land survey plan" mode, the algorithm for processing the cadastral map is implemented, which provides variable formation of an XML document according to the MP_v06 and MP_v08_R04 schemes. For dialog initialization, the program uses information from a cadastral map. If the map is created according to the survey.v5 classifier, a decision is made to prepare an electronic XML document according to the MP_v06 scheme. If the cadastral map is created according to the survey.v6 classifier, the XML document will be formed according to the MP_v08_R04 scheme. Different versions of the map classifier, correspond to different versions of the XML-scheme of the land survey plan and use values of attributes of cadastral objects from XSD-directories of different versions.
In the "Land Survey plan" dialog in the "Initial data" node in the "Information on geodetic base" table, the ability has been added to enter information about the state of the outside sign of the point, the center of the point and its mark. The recording of information about geodetic network points into an XML file has been improved.
The "Document on the establishment of territorial zones" mode has been improved, when editing information about a zone, in the "Territorial zone - types of permitted use" element, filling in the "Permitted use" column has been added. There is implemented a reading data from a previously created XML file to fill in information in the elements: "Document code" on the "Documents" tab, "Type of subject of legal relations" on the "Applicant" tab and information on the minimum and maximum sizes of land plots.
The dialog "Editing attributes of object of cadastral works" has been updated. New elements have been added for entering and editing information about the state of the external sign of the point, the center of the point, its mark and the date of inspection of the point of the geodetic network.
The mode "Technical plan" has been improved. To fill in the attribute "Cadastral numbers of land plots on which the property is located" there is added an automatic search on the cadastral map of land plots on the territory of which the property is located. Editing of the table "Previously assigned state registration number of the real estate object" has been corrected. Recording the Definition attribute when forming an XML-file of the technical plan has been corrected.
The modes "Create schema objects and filling the report" and "Filling a report for an object" have been improved. The order of forming the report for multicontour object and group of the selected objects processed simultaneously was updated. The template scheme.dot has been updated. In the mode "Building a road profile" when forming the multipage report the signature of page numbers was added.
The new version of the program is available on the website in the Download section.

In the "Workstation of urban planner" the possibilities of forming the documents of territorial planning in the GML format have been expanded
In KB "Panorama" the "Workstation of urban planner" version 13.6.7 has been developed. In the new version the changes have been made in dialogs of import and export of documents of territorial planning in GML format. The mode "Export territorial planned data in GML" has been improved, which provides reading of map objects and their unloading into a file in GML format. Maps of documents of territorial planning should be created on the basis of the digital classifier terplan.v5.rsc which corresponds to the provisions of the order of Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation of January, 9th, 2018 N 10 "On approval of requirements for the description and display in documents of territorial planning of objects of federal significance, objects of regional significance, objects of local significance".
Maps of territorial planning documents are made in accordance with the level of management: territorial planning schemes of the Russian Federation, territorial planning scheme of the subject of the Russian Federation, territorial planning scheme of a municipal district, a general plan of an urban district and a general plan of an urban settlement. To identify errors made by users when drawing objects on the map, including the use of signs of the wrong level, tools for searching and fixing errors have been added. When generating a GML document, control of the presence of mandatory characteristics in the semantics of objects and control of the absence of self-intersections of the metric of linear and areal objects have been implemented. The results of the control are displayed in the task window and are automatically recorded in the protocol. For the analysis and correction of errors, the "View control results" mode has been added, which displays a list of errors and contains navigation tools for moving the map to the location of the detected error.
The mode "Import territorial planned data from GML" has been improved. It provides reading GML files, creating a map and drawing objects on it in accordance with the requirements for describing and displaying objects of federal significance, objects of regional significance, objects of local significance in territorial planning documents.

Van stuns UK market with its fuel economy
While we're focused on litres per kilometre here in SA, over in the UK it's all about miles per gallon – and when it comes to the Fleet World MPG Marathon, fuel economy is the point of focus to the exclusion of pretty much everything else.
This year, however, a star emerged. Vauxhall's Vivaro ecoFlex triumphed with a stunning 59,31 percent improvement on the combined fuel economy figure.
This sensational result wasn't just the best percentage improvement for a commercial vehicle, it put cars to shame too. Soundly beaten rivals included the Ford Transit Custom (new to the market) and the Volkswagen Transporter.
The revised Vivaro ecoFlex was launched in the UK earlier this year with a range of green technology features. These include exhaust gas recirculation, improved thermal management, optimised gear ratios, low rolling resistance tyres and an aerodynamic kit.
Driven by Vauxhall archivist and resident eco-driving expert, Andrew Duerden, and co-driver Neil McIntee, the ecoFlex registered an impressive fuel economy figure of 65,16 miles per gallon (mpg) against a combined figure of 40,90 mpg.
The two-day marathon, the UK's longest-running economy driving event, took place in the Cotswolds with separate routes covering 350 miles (560 km) of countryside, with a mix of main and back roads and motorway driving.
"Fuel economy is a top priority for Vauxhall customers who are looking to reduce running costs, and our MPG Marathon win proves what a frugal van the Luton-built Vivaro is," says Duerden.
Duerden was presented with the MPG Marathon trophy by Norman Baker, the parliamentary under-secretary of state for transport at the Royal Automobile Club in London yesterday (October 10).
Building over 70 000 vehicles alone last year at its plants in Luton and Ellesmere Port, Vauxhall is the UK's largest manufacturer of commercial vehicles.

Russell Tovey reacts to Jack Whitehall Disney gay role controversy: 'Just let him act'
"If you're an actor, you're an actor."
Russell Tovey has defended the casting of Jack Whitehall as Disney's first ever gay character, saying critics of the decision should "just let him act".
The gay star of Looking, 36, said the fact Whitehall is straight shouldn't prevent him from taking on the role of a gay man in the studio's upcoming adventure film Jungle Cruise.
"If you're an actor, you're an actor," Tovey told The Telegraph.
"The whole thing with Jack playing a gay character … I'm like, just let him act."
Russell, who made his name playing straight characters in shows such as Him & Her and Being Human, continued: "It's like me saying I could never play a straight character because I am not going to know a straight person's thoughts."
He added: "I've always been out, and happy with the range of characters I've been offered. I've had the most amazing opportunities."
Whitehall, 30, was revealed to be starring alongside Emily Blunt and Dwayne Johnson as Disney's first explicitly gay character last month, but the decision to cast a straight man in the groundbreaking role was criticised by some who believed it could have been an opportunity to promote diversity in an industry where discrimination against gay actors remains widespread.
Whitehall's casting has been defended by stars including Idris Elba, who told TimeOut last month that "artistic licence is artistic licence".
The Luther star said: "If an actor has the attributes to do something, they should be able to do it.
"They're acting. You don't necessarily have to be gay to play a gay character - though you do have to be black to play a black character."
Whitehall previously said he was "honoured" to be taking on the role in Jungle Cruise, which is slated for release in October 2019.

Tovey, meanwhile, will next be seen on the London stage in Pinter, a collection of one-act plays by Nobel Prize-winning British playwright Harold Pinter.
The former Quantico star will be appearing in both 'The Lover', in which he plays a husband whose sexual role-play with his wife (Hayley Squires) gets out of hand, and 'The Collection', where he takes on the role of a sexually-ambiguous man who takes out his insecurities on his older lover (played by David Suchet).

Emmys 2019: LGBTQ stars and shows rack up nominations
'Equus' at Trafalgar Studios, London review: 'The homoerotic subtext is more vivid than ever'
From the Legacy Virus to Iceman: A brief history of X-Men's LGBTQ evolution


The author of both Forces books was honest, naïve, and, by his own admission, a little lazy. This gullible chap joined the City of London Police in the 70s, a time of endemic corruption and what was known as a 'firm within a firm'. He was, in effect, an innocent amongst predators.
The first book takes our bemused author through his first 10 years in the City and then, in the sequel, through the Home Office, Kent and Sussex.
They provide hope for the honest and, more importantly, the merely adequate. Read the reviews and comments and then be amazed at the paltry prices being asked for these, merely adequate, books. Click on either book to be taken through to the Amazon Kindle page.
What can I say about my book that has not already been said by its readers, who gave it 4.5 stars on Kindle? I'll say that only one person graded it under 4 stars and he was ex City Police. Make of that what you will.
Informative, funny, tragic, and a revelation; and that's not me saying it. What will concern you is that everything in the book is true.
A Tour of Forces covers the working life, career is too strong a word, of 'Harvey', from promotion to retirement. There's his time on secondment to a minor Home Office unit, working in Kent and then on to Sussex where his impact on the force was what you might have expected if you had read his (rather excellent and well reviewed) earlier book.
Recently published, there are no reviews available. Please let me know what you think of it.
As well as being funny, well written and one of those "can't put down" scripts it also serves to highlight to those in the know the problems the police face and the idiocies which exist in forces.
Great writing style Derek – hits the spot perfectly!
good so far. Apart from having a shower I've done nothing but read it!
Love the stories surrounding the City. A really great read – I've been telling people about the Queen Mum Wink story. Just my sort of book. Cheers. Dan.
Bought it yesterday – very good!
Very good read, bit of an abrupt ending. Good anecdotes, and some food for thought. Quite shocked by how blatant some of it was.
It's been a long time since anything I've read has had me actually, really laughing out loud, but Denzil and the pick of his litter did.
This was brilliant, just finished it. . . . it's a great insight, that comes across as balanced despite being written by a copper.
I loved the way in which you have written it, it flows very nicely and I found each chapter flying by.
Finished this recently and very enjoyable.
