#telosvision: mad men (and woman)
so, last night
brought along the UK broadcast debut of Mad Men season 5. of course, unless you're total nobody and don't even know anything about things, then you'd already downloaded and watched the doublebill a whole few days ago and have been busily acting special and tweeting about how you could, but won't 'spoil it' for 'everyone'.
well, i am a total nobody so i watched it 'on broadcast' with the prols. and i must say, despite the overarching Murdoch-claw of evil, congratulations are due to Sky Atlantic for putting on a good show. whoever's decision it was to fill the advert breaks with vintage adverts, deserves praise.
given that i'm not (and won't ever be) a subscriber, but use a generously donated online pass, when it comes to Sky, i don't have my usual luxury of switching on fifteen minutes late and then skipping the adverts. however, i have to say that last night i was glad of that fact. when they weren't busy being hideously misogynistic/racist, many old adverts did actually used to be quite charming.
*spoilers ahoy*
ironically, while we were studying the work of real-life 60s advertising agencies, the future of SCDP was looking evermore in doubt. the work space is still an issue, and money is as tight as ever, and the cracks seem very much to be showing. in fact, the overarching tone of the season's start was fairly sour.
being 1966, the sixties are now swinging. the golden era of style is passing – the blazer that Roger wore to Don's birthday party was hideous, the women are wearing bubblegum pink and orange and it won't be too long till we see flared suits (*shudders*).
moreover, the onward march of civil rights is bringing out the racism in everyone, and the film stock now looks overly 'glossy' (although that might be more to do with HD than anything else).
and, as for the characters:
Pete still thinks too much of himself, Joan is more fragile than ever now that her matriarchal swagger has become a maternal wobble, Lane is still a vapid bastion of flimsy British cliché, Harry has turned into Dilbert, Peggy is drifting further from her roots and becoming evermore conformed to the 'bitch at the seniors, dump on the juniors' norm, and Roger has apparently lost even the modest amounts of class, grace, tact and purpose that he had.
then, of course, there are/is Don and Megan. well, having taken the easy option and dumped Dr Faye, it seems Don has ended up with what he wanted. despite some initial 'resistance' – "everyone here is so horrid"/"Zou Bisou" – by the end of the second episode it seemed that, thanks to some firm words and some rapey sex on a dirty carpet, Don had finally broken (in) his mare. presumably now he'll convince her to g e t h e r t e e t h d o n e.
and, speaking of rapey sex, Homeland.
so i'm suddenly a bit worried by an apparent conservative undercurrent in what looked like it was going to be a refreshingly non-conservative Fox show. while it seems to be playing fashionably fast and loose with neo-con norms like 'all terrorists are brown', 'all veterans are heros' and so on (with regard to which we were all on high-alert), have the spectres of implicit misogyny and reinforced 'family values' snuck round the back and caught us off guard?
while it's been a factor since the outset, the last two episodes seem to have placed very strong emphasis on Carrie's sexual proclivities. despite relying heavily on the 'married to the job' and 'spying + family = doesn't work' clichés, there is also seems to be a sense that sex is a particular 'problem' for her.
we learnt early on that she had a fling with David which led to the breakdown of his family. then, when in a tight spot, she seemed to make a frankly ridiculous error of judgement involving Saul. then, when discussing relationships with Brody she revealed that she "wasn't exactly faithful" to her partner when she was in Iraq *wink wink*. and now, since her primary lines of spy inquiry (spyquiry) have been thwarted by damned bureaucracy and something bullshit to do with human rights and evidence, she seems to have decided to turn herself into a honeypot.
history of unfaithfulness/promiscuity, huge lapses of judgement with regard to sex, willingness to use sex as a tool, mental illness *POTENTIAL MISOGYNY ALERT* *REINFORCED CONSERVATIVE SEXUAL ETHIC ALERT*
on a side note, obviously the whole mental illness subplot is something i'm following very closely, and something i will no doubt write about once the season has played out. however, here are some thoughts so far: we don't know yet exactly what condition Carrie suffers from, although we know that her sister provides her with Clozapine, which her father apparently also takes.
Clozapine is a strong, atypical antipsychotic primarily used in the treatment of schizophrenia, although it is also occasionally used to treat Parkinson's and, very occasionally, the mania associated with bipolar disorder. i think we can safely rule out Parkinson's (for Carrie), but it could be either of the other two.
the real inconsistency is that, as a psychiatrist, her sister would know that Clozapine is not at all suitable to be taken on the down-low, given not only its strength, but also a profound risk of damage to white blood cells (which must be monitored with regular blood tests).
these 'issues' to one side, here are my hopes for the mental health plot point:
o minimal fetishization (i think this hope is already dead)
o no 'all mental illness is a savant-like power'
o no 'just as i'm about to be right everyone finds out i'm mental and ignores me'
o no 'i don't need proper treatment, i just need to work'
o no 'proper treatment means straight-jacket and psych ward'
o no 'as things go well for me, my illness goes away'
anyway, we'll see.

Lady Day (something for and from)
[Mary] Joe … we need to talk. The thing is, I just found out that I'm
[Joe] Hush now, don't explain …
… Just say you'll remain
I'm glad you're back, don't explain.
Quiet, don't explain;
What is there to gain?
Skip that lipstick,
Don't explain
You know that I love you,
And what love endures.
All my thoughts are of you,
For I'm so completely yours
Cry to hear folks chatter –
And I know you cheat –
Right or wrong, don't matter,
When you're with me, sweet.
Hush now, don't explain.
You're my joy and pain.
My life's yours love;
Don't explain.

#telosvision: spring series
recently at RQT
we've all been too ill for doing blogs (not literally too weak to type, but too busy either sleeping, coughing, or catching up with essential stuff that we've missed through sleeping and coughing).
however, what we have mainly been doing between bouts of sleep and coughcough is watching TV, and in particular keeping eyes on the first wave of spring series.
while there's some interesting stuff still to come …
o new seasons of Mad Men and Game of Thrones
o Hit and Miss – Chloë Sevigny's long-awaited transexual-assassin drama
o Smash – all singing, all dancing razzmatazz with Angelica Houston
o not to mention The Voice and the Dallas reboot (glances towards noose-stool combo)
… recent weeks have seen this year's class off to a decent start in some quarters, and with the premiere of Mad Men season 5 now less than ten days away, it's probably important to talk about any other shows now before Don-fever engulfs everything.
in terms of comedy, despite the embarrassingly bad Noel Fielding's Luxury Comedy and the failure of BBC Four's Australian journo-spoof Lowdown to gather any real momentum, we've been treated to new seasons of RQT favourites Archer and Eastbound & Down as well as the continuation of Parks and Recreation season 4 and the conclusion of season 2 of Portlandia.
alongside these established laugh-couriers, we have also been tickled by strong debuts from New Girl and the animated Napoleon Dynamite series.
drama, however, has mostly been "where it's at".
while there have been some good pickings round the edges – like the fact that BBC Four decided, off the back of their Italian season, to show the whole first series of Inspector Montalbano (which, despite hideous production value, brings the exploits of Andrea Camilleri's phlegmatic Sicilian to life remarkably well) – it's mostly been about the arrival on these shores of two new American heavyweights.
Channel 4 landed Homeland, Showtime's slow-ish-burning security services thriller starring Claire 'wherefore art thou' Danes and Damien 'i'm doing an impression of Michael Madsen now' Lewis, whereas Sky Atlantic snapped up the Dustin Hoffmann/Michael Mann horse-racing-themed gangster vehicle Luck.
given that it was produced for Fox 21 by Howard Gordon, the obvious comparison was with 24, although i tried hard not to let that put me off. given that we're currently four episodes deep and so far there have been no explosions and only three shots have been fired (two of which were at a deer), i imagine most 24 fans will have already come to the end of their underworked attention spans.
Danes plays Carrie Mathison, a mid-ranking CIA officer at the centre of what seems to basically be a classic and slightly caricatured character study. [paraphrasing] "I made mistakes that day …" (can you guess which day she means?) *pops blue pills in front of mirror* "… I won't let that happen again" [subtext] "I'm strong, but fragile. I have a flawed past, but also moral courage. I might be a bit mental, but just because I'm paranoid it doesn't mean that Damien Lewis isn't out to get us all".
she is a workaholic. she doesn't eat properly or look after herself and her apartment is sort of but not really a mess. because she is in a rush, one of the first things we see her do in the series is hurriedly wash her vagina with a flannel. i don't remember Jack Bauer doing that.
Lewis plays grizzled Sergeant Nicholas Brody, or 'Brody' to everyone (seriously, even his wife), a US Marine ('oo-rah) who is pulled out of a hole in Afghanistan-Iraq (the two seem to be basically interchangeable) after spending eight years as a POW of war. Brody resurfaces suspiciously soon after we've witnessed a flashback of Mathison learning from a then soon-to-be-executed prisoner in an Iraqi jail that an American military captive has been 'turned' by Al-Qaeda.
behind the back of terrible-accented boss David (played, oddly, by David Harewood off of ITV's proto-Gavin-&-Stacey flop, Fat Friends) and to the despair of both her powerful behind-the-scenes-meddler-of-a-mentor, 'wise jew' Saul Berenson (played by a man called Mandy) and friend/wingman/tech guy Ray Vecchio from Due South – who, despite his concerns, is "fucking in it now, up to your fucking neck and so is your stupid kid brother" (again paraphrasing – what? i'm not doing 'research') – Carrie bugs Brody's house with cams and mics and looks at him intensely.
occasionally she looks away, then writes things down – things about him, but which could often also apply to her. which is sort of what irony is.
[key plot so far (spoilers)]
Brody has torture scars. when (he thinks) no-one is watching, he sits in the corner. instead of sexing his wife, Jessica, right, first he rapes her, then, another day, he wanks over her. he lies about knowing a known bad man. maybe he killed a fellow captive because the known bad man told him to. he sees known bad man in his dreams/bathroom mirror. daughter-Brody, Dana, is angry that mummy-Brody had sex with best-friend-Brody, Mike, while brody-Brody was off being presumed dead for eight years.
no interviews. OK, interviews.
when and where the hidden cameras can't see him, Brody sometimes (although certainly not five times a day) does Muslimy stuff, like washing his hands in a bowl, kneeling on a mat and praying toward the east. when he goes for a run, he likes to stare menacingly at Capital Hill. at a party, he shoots a deer. a concubine to the Saudi prince/untrained CIA-assest has a necklace, but then is also dead. then she doesn't have the necklace. a suspicious inter-racial couple use the proceeds from the sale of the necklace to buy a house under a flight path. time up, no more cameras. pressure.
so far at least, Homeland isn't amazing, but then so little TV drama is. compared to something like 24 it's tense, visceral, stripped-down and gritty. however, it is also lays it on too thick in places – the opening credits being a perfect example. still, i really like Danes and Mathison, and Ray Vecchio and i'm belted in for the ride.
talking of rides …
created by David Milch (Murder One, NYPD Blue, Deadwood), produced and guest-directed by Michael Mann and starring Dustin Hoffmann, mumbling, recent Academy Award nominee Nick Nolte, Michael 'Dumbledore II' Gambon, long-standing Mann collaborator and Hollywood-go-to-chump-mobster Dennis Farina and a stuttering Richard Kind, there's plenty of well known (male) names involved.
Luck is based in the world of Californian horse racing, and focuses on the way in which it is just clean and just dirty enough to be the perfect context within which disgruntled mobster Chester 'Ace' Bernstein can take revenge on those who let him carry the can when his apartment was found to contain a large consignment of 'product'; cocaine, which Mike Smythe (Gambon) had stashed there without consent.
following three years of prison time, Bernstein buys Pint of Plain, a promising Irish racehorse using chauffeur and factotum Gus (Farina) as a 'clean' proxy, and proposes that his former partners – on whom he wants to take his revenge – invest in a local track and build a casino there.
how these two schemes, and the parallel exploits of Nolte's horse owner Walter Smith (the guy that thinks of surnames is pretty lazy), prickly track trainer Turo Escalante (John Ortiz), stammering agent Joey Rathburn, novice ('bug') rider Leon, washed-up jockey Ronnie (played by real-life Hall of Famer Gary Stevens) and four-strong, degenerate betting syndicate Marcus, Renzo, Jerry and Lonnie (who see a huge payday from a fattened 'pick six' in the pilot), are connected, well, that's the 'hook'.
there was a decent buzz around Luck since its pilot pre-aired in the States at the end of last year, but i have to say four episodes in and i'm on my way out.
the biggest problem is the uneven tones. on the one hand, the the decision was made to go for a David Simon-like approach to racing slang and gambling concepts, with the first few episodes being packed full of 'triple bugs', 'singling the fourth' and so on. however, despite (or perhaps because of) this and the potentially complex and twisting meta-plots, the scriptwriters have decided that several of the characters should do large amounts of exposition, usually whilst talking to themselves out loud.
several do this, but Nolte's Smith is the worse offender. his character is a heavy drinking loner who might just have a little-known horse that can win the Derby. apparently, this combination of characteristics means it makes sense for him to spend 2/3s of his screen-time vocalising his thoughts – either mumbling to himself whilst looking through binoculars as his prize horse trains, or (indulging the only bigger cliché on offer) mumbling to the horse, whilst rubbing it down before or after a workout. you just can't do the whole 'corrupt animal sport as metaphor for institutional manipulation' thing AND do this shit too.
basically, it's as if some people who know what they're doing wrote the screenplay, but then Scooby-Doo and Dr Dolittle were asked to make whatever changes they saw fit.
at one point, we're actually expected to believe that a seasoned gambler (Lonnie) doesn't know which horse he's supposed to be cheering for even though (as he's already pointed out) the board clearly shows how much he'll pocket if each horse wins, and one of them is a much bigger number than the others.
this undulating terrain composed of a cluster of characters with several (seemingly) loosely related interests, a barrage of horse racing jargon which is obviously supposed to make the whole thing feel 'embedded' and edgy, but also ridiculous levels of plot exposition and hand-holding (presumably there to make good on a no-viewer-left-behind pledge) has so far made for a very disjointed and largely suspense-less experience.
fans of the back pages who were watching Luck in the run up to Cheltenham might have noted a small amount of reality crossover related to the somewhat murky goings-on at Paul Nicholls' stables with regard to champion and then Gold Cup favourite Kauto Star's hushed-up fall in training.
furthermore, it transpired that what punters had been assured was a totally fit and ready to go Kauto Star was pulled up in yesterday's Gold Cup, less than half way round the course. i suspect the closed nature of the sport, the very reason it suits a story like the one told in Luck, will mean the truth about exactly what happened and how will be very unlikely to emerge. however, the parallels between reality and fiction did not end there.
on Wednesday, the opening day of the festival at Cheltenham, three horses were badly injured while racing and were euthanised as a result – which (along with two further deaths the next day) have put the ethical spotlight back on steeplechasing in particular and horse racing in general. meanwhile, on the very same day, despite the filming of the second season being underway and a third in the pipeline, HBO announced that, as a result of a (third) horse being injured (and subsequently euthanised) during production, Luck had been cancelled.
the death of two horses during the production of the first season – one early on in 2010 and another towards the end in 2011 – had already meant that season 1 aired without the American Humane Association's famous "No Animals Were Harmed in the Making" endorsement, and a third, was apparently a step too far for HBO – although the more cynical among us might well point to the surprisingly low viewing numbers that the second half of season 1 posted in the US as the real reason for the cancellation.
so, with Homeland reservedly impressing, but Luck fading fast, what seemed like it might be a tight, two-horse race looks now like it might prove to be something of a let down. whence then the value? well, perhaps, i might steer you towards an outside shot: you might have to run your eyes down the card a fair way, but i'd say, from the first couple of episodes, that NBC's Awake, starring Jason Issacs, could well be worth the televisual equivalent of a savvy each-way punt.

As for betting, I've highlighted a few options that might offer a punter some value, but the reality is that nowadays the main oscars categories are too sewn-up to be a good betting prospect. here, however, is one tip you might like:
if you're betting 'in play', keep an eye on Sound Editing and Sound Mixing.
according to professional punter and gambling legend Neil Channing, these two awards offer an interesting angle. as you will see, if you look, the nominations are pretty similar for both, and on the night they are awarded consecutively. every year, the price of whichever film wins the first award to go on and win the second automatically shortens significantly in the 'in play' odds, however only four times out of the last eleven years has the winner of the first taken the second.
therefore, the best bet of the night might well be to swiftly lay the winner of Sound Editing to win Sound Mixing.
well that's all from me, and here's wishing you a pleasant Oscars night, who, where and whenever you are.
PS: i am hosting an intimate and sophisticated Oscar soirée tonight on Twitter.
if you feel like dropping by, do so by using the hashtag #RQTOP

#tirednewsflash: medicine 101
the lead Tory government has today been subject to intense criticism and continuing contemptuous hatred following new revelations regarding the future of the NHS Direct telephone service.
under new plans drawn up by Health Secretary Angela Lansbury MP, the service is to be quickly allowed to naturally stop being operative very much of its own accord, and then replaced by a different and if not worse system, called Medicine 101.
instead of being staffed by nurses and backed up by doctors, as is the NHS Direct service is currently is, Medicine 101 will employ cheaper phone operators equipped not necessarily with knowledge but with a database allowing them unprecedented access to hundreds of hours of footage from the UK and US's most popular medical shows.
the first phase of what the Department of Health is calling 'the 101 working scenario' is instigated when someone worried about a health issue dials 101 into a telephone, mobile telephone, Skype handset or WiFi enabled scientific calculator. shortly after this, they are connected to the Medicine 101 Hub.
meanwhile, at the Hub, upon on learning of the details of a complaint from a caller, a crypto-highly qualified Medicine 101 Diagnosis and Treatment Delivery Operative will search the database using a certain number of keywords/phrases: e.g. 'stab', 'cancerous', 'vacuum seal', 'weepy' or 'engorged'.
subsequent to entering the appropriate keywords/phrases, the Operative will, as immediately as possible, be then presented with a list of episodes from popular and semi-popular hospital-based dramas, comedies or documentary series in which patients with similar symptoms have featured. they will then be able to access a list of the treatments offered in the various shows, as well as the medical, dramatic or comedic consequences (for both the patient, the wider cast and in terms of the overarching narrative arc).
patients will then be texted or Tweeted any information that could be found in the database relating to their symptoms or condition, any advice on successful treatments thrown-up by the search and detailed information on the source from which the information has been gleaned. e.g. '9yr old boy with bleeding ears, ruptured subdural haematoma, long needle to head (Casualty; 16th July '93, 8:00pm), died. WARNING: sad, parents sad, staff sad. possibly contributed to continued decline of programme.'
"It's an really ingenious system when you think about it", design team Paul Robinson-nobbert and his designer half-Scottish son Andrew Robinson-nobbert Jr., both insisted. "there is such a repository of clinical wisdom in these often thoroughly researched and realistic shows which is otherwise mostly being ignored,"
Operatives can already see data from shows as diverse and enjoyble as E.R., Grey's Anatomy, House, M*A*S*H, Scrubs, Casualty, Jimmy's, Surgical Spirit, 999, One Born Every Minute, Star Trek, Star Trek: The Next Generation, Only When I Laugh, Doogie Howser M.D., Doctors, Young Doctors, The Flying Doctors and All Creatures Great and Small.
whatismore, the NHS is in personal negotiations with Channel 4 over Sirens, Embarrassing Bodies, No Angels and Green Wing, with ITV over Doc Martin and the UK rights to either Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman or a compendium of medical bits from McGyver, and with the BBC over Holby City, Dr. Finlay's Casebook, Rolf's Animal Hospital, Nurse Jackie and the one with Jo Brand in.
the Shadow(y) H(st)ealth Secret(ary), Andy Burnham was clear that he and his kind are fully opposed to the measure, describing it as "utterly crass and almost certainly not going to improve things." "It's such an obvious vote-pandering exercise" he later remarked in the same interview, "some bright spark intern in the Department of Health has decided that people love and trust TV more than real healthcare professionals. I, however, think that that fact is irrelevant, and what is most important is combatting this government's total lack of regard for working people, the elderly, the Scottish and its obsession with tax cuts for big business."
when we called, no-one from the Department of Health was available to officially respond to Mr Burnham's accusations. however, we were told that similar slurs featuring in episodes of The Thick of It, Spitting Image and Yes Prime Minister all proved woefully ineffective.

#tiredgamer: eyes on double fine
if you're
interested in video games, you need to have your eye on Double Fine Productions.
tbh, this is generally sage advice, but in this instance i specifically mean what they've been doing over the last two days.
because … the company responsible for Stacking (no. 6 in my list of last year's best games), Costume Quest, Brutal Legend, Psychonauts and Iron Brigade, and headed up by the two-thirds of guys who made Monkey Island (Tim Schafer and Ron Gilbert), one half of the guys behind Day of the Tentacle (Tim Schafer) and all of the guy who created Grim Fandango (Tim Schafer), announced that it's going to make a new point-and-click adventure game.
while this in itself s fairly exciting if you're a geek like me, what is more significant about the story is that they decided to raise the capital needed for the venture through crowd-sourcing site Kickstarter.
not only that, but they offered those who contribute towards the game the chance to be involved in its making. not only will the team be shooting a short, episodic documentary about the making of the game, which will be uploaded for public scrutiny, they will also be inviting feedback from 'backers' as to their thoughts on the game's content and direction.
while this may or may not strike you as totally freaking awesome, the most amazing part of this whole episode in the history of humankind and their video-games is that in the less-than-two-whole-days since the investment page went live, the project has been backed to the tune of $1.3m and counting (for the next month).
Holy Shitbiscuits this could be massive.
so, as i said, big respect to and all eyes on Double Fine.
we're in, are you?

Misti McKeehen plans to help students collaborate with Baltimoreans.
Misti McKeehen joined the University as the new Executive Director of the Center for Social Concern (CSC) in May 2018. As the Executive Director of the CSC, McKeehen will work with all CSC programs, including campaigns such as the President's Day of Service and HopServe 50. She will also help oversee the student-run community service groups on campus.
Prior to stepping into her role at Hopkins, McKeehen worked at the University of Pittsburgh as the Director of the Office of PittServes, an organization which provides community service opportunities to students. She is currently pursuing her doctorate in Social and Comparative Analysis of Education.
McKeehen has over 15 years of experience in activism and community involvement. In 2017, Pittsburg, Pa. media outlet The Incline named her one of "20 People Building a Better Pittsburg." Additionally, she has served as the Director of Operations & Outreach at the Coro Center, an organization which trains civic leaders, and the Site Director of Public Allies Pittsburgh, a community service organization.
In an interview with The News-Letter, McKeehen emphasized the resources that the CSC offers to student community service groups.
Last year, the CSC placed a ban on new student community service organizations allowed to operate on campus. According to McKeehen, this ban will not continue into the 2018-2019 academic year.
The CSC implemented the ban on new community service groups in response to concerns that too many student groups cover very similar issues. McKeehen stated that the Center will focus on encouraging such groups to collaborate on service projects.
The CSC also noted that last year, some student groups failed to build strong relationships with Baltimore service organizations, thereby potentially harming the relationship between Hopkins and these organizations in the future.
McKeehen believes that collaboration with community organizations should be a priority for Hopkins service groups.
McKeehen emphasized the importance of ethical community service practices, especially from an influential institution like Hopkins.
She also explained that her new role allows her to personally engage with community organizers in Baltimore.
McKeehen cited the Community Impact Internship Program (CIIP) as an example of a community service program that seeks to ethically engage with the Baltimore community. Participants in CIIP learn about the history of the city and engage with local community activists.
One of the CSC's new initiatives is a student-led project called Baltimore First, which aims to connect students with community service opportunities in fields about which they are particularly passionate.
"Baltimore First is a way that you can sign up and essentially be matched into a project that you care about and that fits your schedule, and that gives you that reliable opportunity to serve," McKeehen said.
Dozens of student organizations now operate within this initiative, which asks students to make a regular commitment to service at a particular organization. McKeehen added that this regularity will improve relationships between student organizations and the community.
She also addressed other potential changes to the CSC. McKeehen explained that the University of Pittsburgh uses online software to allow students to track their community service hours and find service opportunities. She is considering implementing similar software at Hopkins.
"We'd love to be able to show students, over the course of their time at Hopkins, the impact that they've made," she said.
McKeehen also said that she would like to work more closely with the Career Center, noting that some students may be interested in pursuing careers in community service-related fields.
Another area which she plans to address is voter turnout.
"We're doing a lot of work around voter engagement. And that is where you have to be mindful — everything we do is nonpartisan," she said.
McKeehen explained that activism and service can be similar, but they are ultimately separate activities.
"Activism is very different from direct community service because you're doing a different activity. You have a different end goal. Now you can do both, aligned with one topic or one area, but it is important to understand that activism and protesting is different than direct community service," she said.
McKeehen hopes Hopkins students will continue to utilize the CSC as a resource for service opportunities and to find a sense of community on campus.

Gujarati Snacks or Farsaan is simply mouth-watering. They have a perfect mix of tangy and sweet flavours. We guarantee that every foodie likes at least one or two Gujarati Snacks. Though the Dhokla and Khandvi are the most famous ones, there are many others. The following post is a compilation of the best Gujarati Snacks. If you have not tried them yet, please do! They taste super and you should not at all miss them.
They are different from each other. Yes, you read it right! Khaman is made of gram flour or Besan. However, dhokla is made of rice and gram flour. Khaman is lighter in texture as compared to Dhokla. So, make sure you try both of them. Have you ever seen the pictures of white Dhokla? That is actually 'dhokla' and the yellow one is Khaman. Both of them taste amazing. You can also buy them online using FreshMenu offers. You can also get the best places listing on the website.
Apart from Himachal Pradesh, the colocasia leaves' fritters are made in Gujarat as well. The leaves are cut right from their base and washed. Then, the gram flour batter is applied over them for stacking. Many leaves (around 6 to 7) are stacked using the batter. They are folded like an envelope and steamed. Finally, they are fried to a crispy texture. They have a distinct taste and are a perfect tea-time snack. Once you try them, you will become a fan for sure.
This is a baked dish of different spices and rice. Sesame is also a key ingredient which imparts a distinct flavour to it. This is more or less like a savoury cake with an outstanding flavour. You can enjoy it with tea or cold drinks.
Made with all kinds of assorted nuts in Pure Desi Ghee; this is not for the ones that count calories in salads! Ghari is one of the most delicious Gujarati sweets. You can buy it at almost every sweet shop. It is made in every home during festivals and other such occasions.
This is a delicious Gujarati snack that was actually a Dhokla gone wrong. The dish originated when someone accidentally prepared dhokla with wrong consistency. However, it became even more famous in the Gujarati fraternity. These days, you can find it on almost every stall. It is served with Bhel, Mint and Chilli Chutney and Chopped Onions.
Yeah, the Gujaratis have even made ice cream dishes. They are a fusion of golas and ice cream. The gola is coated with vanilla ice cream and lots of cream. The whole thing is sprinkled with lots of nuts and tutty-fruity. This is one amazing Gujarati sweet that you should try at least once. There are many flavours to try and you will be simply amazed by the taste.
The Gujaratis have perfectly understood the art of making pakoras. Methi Gota is the fenugreek pakoda. It is made with besan or gram flour batter and green fenugreek. The small round balls will make it impossible for you to stop. They are a famous tea-time snack in Gujarati households. So, if you want to take a break from the regular pakoras, enjoy them.
Surat is the best place to enjoy all kinds of Gujarati food. However, nobody said that you have to go there to enjoy Gujarati food.
So, what are you waiting for? Pick one and order now!

Q: How to upgrade application for 64 bit support for ZBarSDK I have developed an application using ZBarSDK for Barcode. It is working fine with 32 bit support, but while I am going to upgrade it to 64 bit, it is giving linker error. Is there any tutorial or way to find out the solution ? Below are the warnings, with linker error.

projectpath/arm64/AppDelegate.o
duplicate symbol in:

etc...

This kind of warnings and linker error is there for every controller. I konw, this kind of warning comes when there are similar named class are twice or more time in source code, but if I remove 64 bit it is working fine. How to get rid of this kind of linker error.

A: I'm not sure about the command to merge two or more libraries, I have tried for simulator and device library. After failure, my Sr. helped me and created this attached library.
This SDK I have used before 2 years to support 64bit in my application and was working fine. Not sure about any new changes made by ZBARSDK Team
I have uploaded my SDK at https://www.dropbox.com/sh/zhbqsa0heuputlk/AAC1kDkJBxgybtwi7lnmZ9lra?dl=0
You can try this sdk.

Young Lowinger stars for Maccabi men's thirds
By Shane Desiatnik	December 10, 2021, 10:00 am Edit
Gilad Lowinger (left) and Nadav Moskow.
IT was a mixed round four of the Mercantile Cricket Association season for Maccabi-AJAX's men's teams in terms of results, with the Jewish club posting two wins and two losses.
In Sunday A grade, Maccabi-AJAX battled hard against fourth-placed Carnegie to win by one wicket, and move up to second on the eight-team ladder, just behind the Melbourne Cobras.
Batting first, the Maccabi men made 9/152, with Nick Gross (52) and Eytan Epstein (24) the main contributors.
Carnegie began well in their chase, but a standout bowling spell by Josh Rotstein (3/30), and accurate bowling at the death by Mark Soffer, and Benji and Daniel Jones, who all took two wickets each, saw Carnegie bowled out for 135.
Maccabi-AJAX had a heavy loss to Burnley in B Grade. After being bowled out for 95, with Charlie Gross top-scoring with 29, Burnley's batters were untroubled by Maccabi's attack, and cruised to 1/98 to win the match.
Maccabi's thirds team had an impressive five-wicket win in C South grade over Ashwood, with their youngest players leading the way.
Talented junior all-rounder Gilad Lowinger took his first senior wicket early in his spell, and finished with the outstanding figures of 4/21.
Nadav Moskow was also dangerous all innings, claiming 3/11, and Ashwood were all out for 98.
Lowinger also starred in the run chase, scoring 35 runs.
Joel Lewis (24) and Jeremy Hoppe (22) also made handy runs, and Maccabi-AJAX were only five wickets down when Eli Paneth hit the winning runs in style with a boundary.
Maccabi-AJAX's development team, in Sunday C grade, were bowled out for just 86 against Parkville Districts, who replied with 5/93. The best of Maccabi's bowlers was Jesse Onas, who took 3/22.

MSU to honor Heathcote with patch, tribute game

EAST LANSING — Michigan State announced it will honor former national champion basketball coach Jud Heathcote in a number of ways throughout the upcoming season.
The Spartans plan to wear a patch on their uniforms commemorating Heathcote, who died at 90 years old on Aug. 28 at his home in Spokane, Washington. The final design has not yet been revealed.
"Jud might be gone, but he will live on as a part of our basketball program and our university as we dedicate the upcoming season to his memory," MSU coach Tom Izzo said in a release. "Every time we take the court, the patches on the uniforms will remind us of the man who set a great foundation for anything we accomplish now."
Tom Izzo's memoir of Coach Heathcote: 'Jud brought out the best in me'
Jud Heathcote's charm made him great, but he was the 'mother' of coaches
And on Feb. 10, the Spartans' game at Breslin Center against Purdue will be held as a tribute game to Heathcote. MSU's basketball program is holding its annual former player reunion that day, which will allow former players to be in attendance to honor the three-time Big Ten champion coach. Izzo said he also hopes former Boilermakers coach Gene Keady, one of Heathcote's closest coaching friends, will be able to attend.

"I can't wait for that Tribute Game against Purdue," Izzo said. "I look forward to seeing so many of his former players paying their respect to a man to whom they owe so much. I know that weekend will involve amazing stories, laughter and tears. Jud had some great battles against the Boilermakers"
Izzo is planning to attend a memorial service for Heathcote at 2 p.m. PDT on Sept. 23 at St. Mark's Lutheran Church in Spokane. It is open to the public.
Heathcote led the Spartans to their first national championship in 1979. He was 340-220 record at MSU from 1976-95, including 182-160 in Big Ten games. The Spartans went to nine NCAA Tournaments and four Sweet 16 appearances in Heathcote's 19 seasons. Only Izzo has coached in and won more games at MSU.

This week we're talking about narrative scenes — the storytelling elements that clarify your characters and progress your plot.
As I said yesterday, every scene in your story must move your story forward. That can consistent of character-building, occasionally, and really only in the first act, but in most genres you want to move the plot forward in virtually every scene.
The easiest way to guarantee that happens is to really understand your story's Conflict Resolution Cycle — specifically the Obstacles along your character's path — and make sure that every scene either introduces a new Obstacle or involves your protagonist overcoming a previous Obstacle (or both).
The protagonist realizes he has a nemesis working against him.
The protagonist discovers a clue as to his nemesis's identity.
The protagonist finds an expert in ancient hieroglyphics allowing him to interpret the clue.
The protagonist solves the ancient riddle, recognizing it as a present-day English pun.
The protagonist wins a fist-fight against a well-meaning but blindingly closed-minded cop.
The protagonist accesses the police database and learns the identity of his nemesis.
There's a story. Not a terribly clever one, but it would do for Dan Brown.
Anyway, I present this long list because you can clearly see how each of those items could make a scene or two. In the first scene, perhaps the protagonist is idly poling his gondola along the river-streets of Venice when someone throws a hatchet at him. He gives chase, but is unable to catch or even clearly see his attacker.
We've set up an Obstacle, now. In scene two, at some particular intersection, our protagonist discovers some discarded bit of paper that the attacker clearly dropped while fleeing. That overcomes the "no idea who the attacker is" Obstacle, but introduces a "how can he figure out what the clue means" Obstacle.
Before we started on characters or Conflict Resolution Cycles or any of this, I had you start out with a mock Table of Contents. This would be a great time to review the work you did on that project, and see how the chapter titles you guessed at fit with what you now know about your story now.
You can make changes, if any jump right out at you, but the important thing is to see the difference between your Conflict Resolution Cycle — your story idea — and the individual scenes that you will use to tell that story.
Let's go ahead and get some practice on that storytelling. If you're a strict interpretationist, you know better than to write any words on your actual NaNo novel, but you can still write a scene related to the novel. Maybe one that came before or after, maybe one featuring tertiary characters who would never actually get their own dedicated screen time in the real narrative.
Whatever your justification, I want you to write something that's kind of like getting started on your book. And I want you to do it now. You won't have a lot of leisure time come November, so let's get in that habit.
Write 1,000-5,000 words presenting a complete scene associated with your story idea.
The word count requirement provides you a big window – approximately 3 pages to 15 pages. 15 pages makes a respectable Short Story, according to most definitions. It makes a good chapter, too. You don't particularly need to aim for that, though. Your assignment is to write one complete scene. That means, within whatever story it's a part of, it should move the story forward.
You may choose to write a scene right out of your story. It could be the first scene, the last scene, the climax, or just some scene that is already strong in your mind, and you want to get it down on paper. This can be a great chance to see what happens to your story idea when you commit it to story form.
You don't have to start on your story yet, though. If you'd feel more comfortable saving that for later, you may choose to write a scene otherwise associated with your story. It could be the exciting (but irrelevant) story of how two key characters first met, or something fascinating that happens to one of the minor characters, that won't make it into your finished story. You could even write an alternate ending, or describe how the story might have gone if your protagonist were a low-down dirty cheat.
In the end, this assignment serves several purposes. It's practice, for your daily writing. It's the first time you'll get your feet wet with actual prose composition (everything else has been pre-writing so far). With any luck, it will give you an opportunity to apply the ideas discussed in this chapter, and focus on how the part of the story you're telling actually moves the overall story forward.
Be sure to clearly establish the setting, provide enough characterization to carry the scene, and incorporate some element of the Conflict Resolution Cycle, showing the protagonist either encountering or overcoming an Obstacle (or both).

Does anyone here use Melzer's reagent? If so, where can it be obtained, and are any special credentials needed to obtain it? One of the ingredients is chloral hydrate, which is, I believe, a prescription drug.
Used that in Mycology Lab in school to test spores for amyloid/ dextrinoid reaction, haven't used it since 'cause most of the species I seek can be ID'd on field characteristics. Should be available ready-mixed from any scientific supply house. The chloral hydrate content shouldn't be an issue, nobody's gonna drink the damn stuff with all that toxic iodine in it.
Plain old tincture of iodine from the local pharmacy should work almost as well for testing amyloid/ dextrinoid reaction, though it might take a bit longer for the spores to stain.

Okay, thanks Woodsman. Especially for the tip on iodine.

Royal equality for all … or at least some
Now I'm not suggesting that our beloved and hated (depending on which side of the tea cup you fall) British monarchy accepts change
Nov. 2, 2011 9:00 a.m.
Now I'm not suggesting that our beloved and hated (depending on which side of the tea cup you fall) British monarchy accepts change at a pace that makes a three-toed sloth appear to have the agility of a cheetah, but after 300 years (a century for each sloth's toe) the law of succession is rushing into the present to give equal birthrights to daughters.
This means that if the firstborn child of future king William and his bride, the Duchess of Cambridge Kate, is a girl, she will be first in line to become monarch. Prior to this change, succession skipped over any females to land at the feet of a younger brother.
Duchess Kate must be sighing with relief at this news, too, since past queens who failed to birth a son tended to lose their heads — literally.
Brits, of course, have had nearly 60 years to get used to the idea of a woman upon the throne with HRH Queen Elizabeth II, so this won't come as too big of a shock, but another change may stir the pot a little more. At a meeting of Commonwealth leaders last week, it was also agreed that a future monarch would no longer be forbidden from marrying a Roman Catholic. If this sort of forward thinking carries on, in a few centuries they'll be able to marry someone who isn't white or even someone of the same sex. And here I thought it was a big deal when they stopped marrying their cousins.
The anti-monarchists are naturally still displeased as the changes only apply to one family. Basically, if you're not born a Windsor, you can never rule. (Sounds like our senate; unless you're glad-handing with the party in power, or went to school with the prime minister, you can't become a senator).
Several campaign groups see this little hitch as a major problem and are calling for an elected head of state. Naturally, they will want Simon Cowell to lead the televised election process with the lowest-polling candidates being voted off each week after a nail-biting song-and-dance show.
Of course, if that were to happen, our next figurehead would end up being King Justin Bieber or Queen Susan Doyle.
Some change isn't always for the best. M
Song Stuck in my head
"Broke" by Andrea June
I debated this one as Victoria's Andrea June has delivered such an eclectic and interesting mix of songs on her indie EP Never Mind The Moon. I especially love the word play in "Mary Shelley" about the young woman who created Frankenstein; and the macabre "Bonne Nuit" with its catchy accordion, but "Broke" is the one I keep coming back to. Maybe it's the lightness of my own wallet, or just the funky piano and June's gorgeous voice.

Anne Arundel judge hears restaurants' arguments against dining restrictions, expects county to give testimony Tuesday
Judge rules AAMC must wait for judicial review before opening cardiac surgery program
By Phil Davis and Meredith Newman
Anne Arundel Medical Center. (By Paul W Gillespie/Capital Gazette)
A Circuit Court judge has granted a request to prevent Anne Arundel Medical Center from opening its new cardiac surgery program until the state health care commission's decision undergoes a judicial review.
In her two-and-a-third-page written ruling, Prince George's County Circuit Court Judge Beverly Woodward wrote she understands the gravity of the situation and what her ruling would mean for AAMC as well as Prince George's Hospital Center and Baltimore Washington Medical Center.
"As the Court indicated before the hearing began, this is an important decision at an important time," Woodward wrote. "AAMC wants to provide cardiac services to its residents and those in the Upper Baltimore Region. Dimensions Health, as well, has begun an ambitious, much needed project to serve the health needs of the citizens Prince George's County. Both are admirable goals."
Dimensions, BWMC ask judge to prevent AAMC from opening cardiac surgery program until judicial review
Dimensions Healthcare System and Baltimore Washington Medical Center have asked a judge Tuesday to prevent Anne Arundel Medical Center from opening its new cardiac surgery program until there is a judicial review of the state health care commission's decision to approve the program.
By Meredith Newman
Lawyers for Dimensions, the parent company of Prince George's Hospital Center, and BWMC requested Woodard rule for a stay of proceedings Tuesday, citing, among many reasons, that the hospital's "fragile" cardiac surgery program will face "irreparable harm."
Lawyers for AAMC and an assistant attorney general, representing the Maryland Health Care Commission, argued against the stay. In Woodward's ruling, the judge wrote the two believed the stay was not necessary "since a judicial review of the Decision will be rendered before the doors ever open for the proposed Anne Arundel cardiac surgery program."
Dimensions filed a petition for judicial review April 11 in Prince George's County Circuit Court, and BWMC filed a similar petition shortly after. Both are affiliates of the University of Maryland Medical System. A judge will make a ruling on the judicial review in the coming months.
Woodward wrote about the implications her decision could have on Maryland residents.

"The Court's ruling cannot be based on a parties' unhappiness or disappointment in the decision reached," Woodward wrote. "The people of Maryland from the Eastern Shore to Prince George's County deserve quality and cost effective health care."
In a statement, AAMC spokeswoman Arminta Plater said the hospital remains confident in the state health care commission's decision.
"We've known all along this process would not be without its challenges," Plater wrote in an email. "We will work through this process as we continue to advocate for what's right for our community: improved access to cardiac care."
BWMC and AAMC submitted applications for an open-heart surgery program more than two years ago. There's currently no cardiac surgery unit in the county.
Hospitals challenge Anne Arundel Medical Center cardiac program in court
Baltimore Washington Medical Center and Dimensions Health want a judge to overturn the state health care commission approval of a cardiac surgery program at Anne Arundel Medical Center.
BWMC spokesman Kevin Cservek wrote in a statement the hospital sought a judicial review of the state health care commission's approval of AAMC's application and denial of BWMC's "because we firmly believe our proposed program would provide the greatest benefit to the residents of Anne Arundel County and the upper Eastern Shore without adversely impacting other existing programs."

"We cannot support AAMC's approach which would draw patients away from the budding cardiac surgery program serving our chronically underserved neighbors in Prince George's County," Cservek wrote in an email. "In addition to our regulatory concerns about AAMC's Certificate of Need application, we must do the right thing by patients which is to fight any initiative that exacerbates existing disparities."
Dr. Craig Tanio, who served as the applications' reviewer, recommended in the winter that the Annapolis hospital receive the certificate and denied BWMC. Tanio wrote that AAMC "has the highest potential for establishment of a lower charge cardiac surgery program that will also be high performing."

Since Tanio made his initial recommendation in December, regional hospitals and local politicians have been outspoken about the certificate of need applications. Prince George's politicians, including Senate President Thomas V. Mike Miller Jr., believe that a cardiac surgery program in Anne Arundel could hurt the upcoming Prince George's Regional Medical Center. Anne Arundel County Executive Steve Schuh asked BWMC in January to withdraw its challenge to the program at Anne Arundel Medical Center.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Trump administration's tough new sanctions on Iran took effect on Monday but eight major importers of Iranian oil were spared from immediate penalties.
The sanctions target Iran's energy, financial and shipping sectors and are aimed at crippling the country's economy following President Donald Trump's withdrawal from the 2015 nuclear deal. The measures restore all the U.S. sanctions that had been lifted under the accord that gave Iran billions of dollars in sanctions relief in exchange for curbs on its nuclear program.
Yet as the administration seeks to cut off Iran's oil revenue completely it is allowing some of its closest allies — Greece, India, Italy, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Turkey — and rival China to continue to purchase Iranian oil as long as they work to reduce imports to zero.
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said the waivers, which expire in six months, were necessary to avoid disruption of world oil markets and to give the eight countries more time to eliminate their imports. During those six months, the importing country can buy Iranian oil but must deposit Iran's revenue in an escrow account. Iran can spend the money but only on a narrow range of humanitarian items.
Seeking to deflect criticism from some Iran hawks concerned that the sanctions don't go far enough, Pompeo stressed that U.S. pressure on countries to stop buying Iranian oil had already reduced its exports by more than a million barrels of crude per day.
Pompeo also said limited waivers had been issued to allow European and other firms to continue conversion work on two of Iran's nuclear facilities.
Trump has repeatedly denounced the 2015 deal, one of former President Barack Obama's biggest diplomatic achievements, as the "worst ever" negotiated by the United States, saying it gave Iran too much in return for too little.
