An international scandal a week ahead of presidential elections hit Ukraine. In his interview with The Hill, Prosecutor General Yuriy Lutsenko stated that the U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch handled him a 'do-not-prosecute list' when they first met.
U.S. State Department denied the Ukrainian official's statement about the list and called it "a blatant falsification". Ukraine's President Petro Poroshenko expressed his strong support to the U.S. Ambassador.
A month earlier, Marie Yovanovitch urged Ukrainian authorities to dismiss current Nazar Kholodnytsky, Head of the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office of Ukraine, to immediately finance the complete audit of Ukroboronprom defense company and declassify the state defense contract in the fullest extent possible, etc.

Improving our Theological Memory
In the most recent episode of Mortification of Spin, we address the current retrieval of Classical Theism going on among Evangelicals. It's a fascinating subject and one that merits careful consideration. If you are an armchair theologian or aspire to be and would like to learn more about this important topic, the following are some excellent resources:
Favorite Books for 2019
Let the reader understand: This list would almost certainly be longer if I had read every book I had planned on reading in 2019. There are some notable books still on my desk which I have not yet begun but which I am quite sure are excellent. Nevertheless, among the many wonderful books I read that were published in 2019 these are my top picks...
Blog 244: 4.20.27 - 4.20.32
Calvin's sensitivity to the different circumstances in which people live lead him to flip-flop, or at least to be somewhat ambivalent in his attitude to the magistrate. Citing the case of Nebuchadnezzar (Jer. 27), Scripture requires obedience to bad kings, and even to pray for the well being of the country of exile (Jer.29). No doubt Calvin has his own city of exile, Geneva, in mind. But should not rulers, who also have responsibilities, be kept on track? Yes, but not by ourselves, but by Almighty God. This leads to discussion of the vexed question of civil disobedience.
No doubt having the Anabaptists in mind, and having already defended the right to litigate, Calvin proceeds to defend the entire judicial process. He discourages using the law for the taking of revenge, but upholds the use of due process, 'through which God may work for our good'. (It is interesting that in his teaching Calvin primarily seems to have mind not Geneva, which by this time in his career he believed was governed along right lines, but countries where the law may remain hostile to evangelical Christianity).
A Roadmap for the Song
When I was a boy, my parents often took my sister and me on trips to various parts of the country. I well remember my mom having a roadmap opened on her lap, meticulously tracing the intersection of the nearby highways and neighborhood roads. Whether or not we would make it to our destination was dependent on how carefully my mom read the intricate details of the map. On one occasion, we were making our way through the winding roads of the Pocono Mountains. We had missed our turn somewhere along the way.
The Peacemakers
With each passing beatitude in Jesus' Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 5, it becomes more and more clear that a person cannot be a genuine Christian without have their attitudes and actions completely and radically transformed from the inside out. Regardless the extent of your exegetical gymnastics, there is no possibility of developing a theology of salvation by works from Jesus' teaching in Matthew 5. In fact, it is quite the opposite.
In John 4:24, the Lord Jesus declares, "God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth." New Covenant worship is not about holy places such as the temple in Jerusalem, but about holy hearts worshiping the Triune God. The multitude of Old Covenant ceremonies are replaced with the simplicity of spirit and truth (Heb. 9:9–10).[1] The Puritans recognized that the essence of worship is inward and spiritual.[2] Burroughs said that if we would please God in worship we must bring God His own, both in the matter and the manner of our worship.
Suffering and the Sovereign
One of the first people that I hope to meet in heaven is the Scottish theologian Thomas Boston. I admire the man for the depth of his theology; Jonathan Edwards said that Boston's work on the covenants distinguished him as a "truly great divine." I also admire for the breadth of his writing: twelve thick volumes on almost every doctrine of the Christian faith, taught from every book of the Bible.
Transgenderism Tackled by an Unlikely Coalition
Emily Zinos of the Ask Me First Minnesota Family Council returns to the bunker following her outstanding appearance on "Gender Confusion." This time, Emily brings along her good friend Natasha Chart, who is on the board of directors of the Women's Liberation Front - WoLF.
Q&A - Children of Believers and Our Fallible Heroes
Another curious word game introduction sets the stage for answering a few listener questions. Tackled today: Liturgical dance, Carl's colorful pants and his "Christian journey," Todd's no-book deal, studio cough switches, and more.

The Sundance Kid for President

Classical Theism in the Pastoral Key
Just over a decade ago, the big surprise in American evangelicalism was the sudden popularity of Calvinistic theology captured by Collin Hansen's memorable phrase, 'young, restless, and Reformed.' More recently, another unexpected trend has emerged – an interest in classical theism, Nicene Trinitarianism, and Chalcedonian Christology. Both movements connect to significant correctives within the field of historical theology, epitomized in the early modern period by the work of Richard Muller, in Patristics by Lewis Ayres and Khaled Anatolios, a
November 19: James 1
"Religion that is pure and undefiled before God, the Father, is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world" (Jam. 1:27).
November 18: Hebrews 13
"Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God" (Heb. 13:16)
"... that which is pleasing in his sight" (Heb. 13:21)
A Mystery Beheld
Many things in life fill us with wonder. Our world is full of profound mysteries, but the greatest mystery of all is the mystery of the incarnation. One of the profoundest statements of this mystery is 1 Timothy 3:16:
Poured Out, Not Burned Out
One of the most notable aspects of Paul's ministry was his commitment to hard work and sacrifice. Paul worked hard—harder than most of his peers. In 1 Corinthians 15, he writes,
"But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not in vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me" (1 Cor 15:10).
Broken Pieces and the God Who Mends Them
Lois Lowry tells a story about how a utopian state required that all of the community's memories going back through the generations be committed to a single person, a receiver. The elders engineered a society where no one but the receiver had to feel or remember. Life was safe and comfortable. The citizens were spared the pain of knowing, of emoting. And they could always call on the receiver when faced with a decision that exceeded their self-imposed limited experience.
Augustine's Theology of Preaching
From its inception, preaching has held a prominent place within the life and advance of the church. A current revival of expository ministry is being cultivated throughout the evangelical world. However, such renewed awareness and commitment to an expositional pulpit ministry has been nurtured with a notable lack of historical awareness.
The Housewife Theologian
Vices Masquerading as Virtue
I stumbled upon something Gregory the Great wrote warning how vices often masquerade as virtues.* It made me pause and reflect. Here are some of his words:
Often, for instance, a niggard passes himself off as frugal, while one who is prodigal conceals his character when he calls himself openhanded. Often, inordinate laxity is believed to be kindness, and unbridled anger passes as the virtue of spiritual zeal. Precipitancy is frequently taken as efficient promptitude, and dilatoriness as grave deliberation.
My Worst-Selling Book
I kind of stumbled into becoming an author. I began as a reader and a thinker in the church, connecting a lot of dots in my reading that led to more convictions and questions. And I couldn't find the next book I wanted to read. So, I wrote it.
iii. As Christ would have us to be certainly persuaded that there shall be a day of judgment, both to deter all men from sin; and for the greater consolation of the godly in their adversity: (2 Pet. 3:11, 14, 2 Cor. 5:10-11, 2 Thess. 1:5-7, Luke 21:27-28, Rom. 8:23-25) so will He have that day unknown to men, that they may shake off all carnal security, and be always watchful, because they know not at what hour the Lord will come; and may be ever prepared to say, Come Lord Jesus, come quickly. Amen. (Matt. 24:36, 42-44, Mark 13:35-37, Luke 12:35-36, Rev. 22:20).
ii. The end of God's appointing this day is for the manifestation of the glory of His mercy, in the eternal salvation of the elect; and of His justice, in the damnation of the reprobate, who are wicked and disobedient. For then shall the righteous go into everlasting life, and receive that fullness of joy and refreshing, which shall come from the presence of the Lord: but the wicked, who know not God, and obey not the Gospel of Jesus Christ, shall be cast into eternal torments, and be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of His power.

Jan Laski – The Polish Reformer
Jan Laski (also known as Johannes à Lasco) is normally remembered as the Reformer of Poland, but he had also a great influence in England and other parts of Europe and was an untiring opponent of the heresies of his time.
Mary Honywood and Her Flickering, Unquenchable Faith
By Dan Doriani
Access to God (Romans 5:2)
As I begin the New Year, I find myself meditating on the fruits of justification by faith, especially the great principle that it brings us access to God. Paul says that through Christ, "we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand" (Rom. 5:2a). Peace with God creates access to God, so that we can stand before him fearlessly. By grace, we can stand calmly before God. Illustrations may help us take this benefit to heart.
The Judgment and Wrath of God – An Unpopular but Necessary Theme
One summer, a family man (and personal friend) traveled to Paris, where he spent a morning enjoying Luxembourg Gardens. In time, he noticed a group of mothers who, he realized, were so engrossed in their conversation that they tilted toward neglect of their children. He watched as one child wandered ever farther from her mother in the crowded park. Not yet two, she began to follow a family, apparently thinking its mother was her mother. When the group crossed a street and hurried onward, the child was finally quite alone.
By Jonathan Master
Reflect Deeply
Christians are frequently reminded to "remember the reason for Christmas," meaning, of course, that we should turn our attention away from the cultural trappings and to the fact that Jesus was born to Mary in Bethlehem. But this Christmas, perhaps we should fix our attention a little more closely, not just on the details of Jesus' birth, but on the miracle of the incarnation. In so doing, we join a great cloud of Christian witnesses, who have reflected deeply on this glorious mystery.
Theology on the Go: Missions
This week on Theology on the Go, Dr. Jonathan Master is joined by Dr. Liam Goligher, pastor of the historic Tenth Presbyterian Church in downtown Philadelphia, PA. As pastor of Tenth Presbyterian, Dr. Goligher has done much thinking and teaching on the topic of missions, and how Christians are to reach the lost. This installment of Theology on the Go gives a glimpse of some of that teaching as Dr. Goligher chats with Jonathan about the doctrine of missions.
By Mark Johnston
The spiritual ontology of the Church
There is a certain view of church that regards it (especially as expressed in the local congregation) as a 'voluntary association'. The idea has been notably prevalent among Christians in the United States, but has been embraced more widely in other parts of the world. Interestingly this perception of church only began to increase in popularity in post-colonial America with the growth of Non-Conformist churches.
The Lost Sheep of the House of Israel
There are many occasions when what seem like throwaway remarks from Jesus say far more than we may realise. One in particular is heard in our Lord's exchange with the Canaanite woman in the region of Tyre and Sidon (Mt 15.21-28), where he tells her, 'I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.'
Calvin for 2020
"What is it about Calvin that so inspires me? This: his disciplined style, his determination never to speculate, his utter submission to Bible words as God's words, his submission to Christ's Lordship, his sense of the holy, his concern to be as practical as possible; the fact that godly living was his aim and not theology for the sake of it. In a forest of theologians, Calvin stands like a Californian Redwood, towering over everyone else." — Derek Thomas

Greater Works than the Son?
Some Bible passages are perplexing. That may be an understatement. We wonder about some of them. Like unruly children who cannot be harnessed and corralled these passages too are hard to handle. When we have finished our daily chores and obligations we ponder them. Better than the illustration of unruly children we might think of them like a diamond we turn this way and that. We study them to understand them. But sometimes these passages leave us with more questions than answers…a lot more. John 14:12 is like that.
The Spirit's Presence from the Old to the New Testament
There is an interesting view that circulates around the church about the Holy Spirit. It goes something like this. In the Old Testament the Holy Spirit did not indwell anyone but only remained with people. However, in the New Testament the Spirit literally dove into His work. In other words, He indwelt the people of God. He made His home in them.
Foundations of Covenant Theology Podcast
Foundations of Covenant Theology
Jonathan and James are very excited to introduce Lane Tipton. He's fellow of Biblical and Systematic Theology at Reformed Forum, and pastor of Trinity OPC church in Easton, PA.
Lane has assembled an outstanding video series for the Forum titled Foundations of Covenant Theology, which he passionately calls "the history of heaven".
Doctrine of God and Church Discipline - Q&A Podcast
Doctrine of God and Church Discipline - Q&A
Jonathan and James answer a few listener's questions as a follow-up to a prior episode. Our hosts address the question of how one can know if Scripture is speaking of God metaphorically or literally. How should one understand Scripture when it talks about God having body parts and emotions, such as passions and feelings? James uses the term "God's absolute sourcehood" to establish the standard of judgment on such matters.
Your True Retirement Plan
We probably all have bank accounts with savings, and maybe investments and 401(k)s. Wisdom would suggest that while we trust God we also should be good stewards and save. You want to have in inheritance—at the end of the road of your work life, you want to have a nest egg. This doesn't make you greedy, in most cases it means you were prudent. But all of this should make us ask, where is my real inheritance? What is the real price? Where, or better, in whom is my true retirement.
This is Your Time (God Has a Plan and Purpose to Every Season of Your Life Under Heaven)
What season did we recently enter? Spring. What comes next? Summer. Then what? Fall. Then what? Winter. And then? Spring. And so on until Christ's Second Coming. The year's seasons are cyclical—and somewhat predictable. So the seasons of our years should not surprise us but rather inspire our adaptability, acceptance, and appreciation.

Covering a large-scale international sporting event was a dream come true for two HCUC News student journalists, Ryan Ooi Chun Kit and John Brandon Michael when they were selected to join the Asia Pacific Masters Games 2018's (APMG) media team, which was held recently.
Both the Diploma in Mass Communication students had not only gained hands-on experience in journalism such as covering various types of news for the Games, but also had the chance to meet journalists and athletes from many countries.
Ooi said it was a good opportunity for him to improve his journalistic skills, although he encountered some challenges at first.
"Since it was a huge event, obviously the editor was expecting you to deliver the best because the stories sometimes would be picked up by other news agencies too.
"I had to look for the right angle of stories, which I wrote mostly from the human interest perspective.
"Besides covering the news, I got to learn many skills pertaining to sports photography as well," he said adding that he made many new friends from all over the world.
For John Brandon Michael, the APMG was a good platform to not only enhance his writing skills, but also learn new skills, which will be useful for him in the future.
"One of my tasks involved interviewing athletes from different countries.
"The challenging part was definitely in terms of the language barriers because all athletes came from various countries and backgrounds.
"However, it was a learning experience for me because I got to know them (the athletes) on a different level too," he said.
APMG, which was held from September 7 to September 15, 2018, is a multi-sports international event for participants aged 30 years and above with no qualifying or selection process involved.
It was the first-ever masters multi-sports event in Asia hosted in Penang, Malaysia, which featured 22 sports including badminton, football, squash, athletics and wushu.


Overview: It has been said, that only 30% of game developers can insist on finishing the game, while 10% of them can publish it, and further 1% of them can eventually earn from the game. Makebestgame.com, a game developing team from China, established in May 2014 with 10 members, only one of them has actual experience of game development, spent a whole year on Blacksmith Story. Ranking in the Best New Games Selection of AppStore and Best Idea Award of Cocos Game Developing Competition, Blacksmith Story leaves us a question: How can they achieve that? Would there be any difficulties they encountered? This speech will reveal the feelings that every indie game developers in China have to experience.

Tenancy >
The Tenancy Tribunal and Tenancy Services deal with disputes about residential tenancies (rented homes including boarding houses) and unit title disputes. The tribunal holds hearings to settle the disputes.
Before coming to the tribunal, you can try to settle your dispute through mediation. The mediation is run by Tenancy Services, which is part of the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE).
Contact the tribunal through Tenancy Services(external link)

Tribunal hearings are informal. The tribunal makes decisions about each dispute based on the general principles of the law and the merits and justice of the case. It doesn't have to follow strict legal technicalities.
Hearings are run by adjudicators
Hearings are heard by unbiased and independent tenancy adjudicators. Most adjudicators are lawyers. They're appointed by the Governor-General on the advice of the Ministers of Justice and Housing.

Point of View Craig Top Story
The Quest for Authenticity by Craig Fuller
February 6, 2019 by Craig Fuller
Authenticity was one of George H.W. Bush's most endearing qualities. I witnessed it daily and admired how someone so competitive and so much in the public view remained determine to be himself.
As individuals announce their intention to seek the presidency, something we should search for is their authenticity. Frankly, I find myself drawn to those who seem authentic and worry less about specific policy pronouncements at this point in time.
So, just what is it?
Carl Jung offered this insight: "The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are."
And, Psychology Today magazine suggests:
….authentic people possess a number of common characteristics that show they are psychologically mature and fully functioning as human beings.
Have realistic perceptions of reality.
Are accepting of themselves and of other people.
Are thoughtful.
Have a non-hostile sense of humor.
Are able to express their emotions freely and clearly.
Are open to learning from their mistakes.
Understand their motivations.
A very good list!
As I watched California Senator Kamala Harris announce her campaign for the presidency, the focus seemed to be on the size of the crowd. But, I looked ever more closely. She seemed joyous. She seemed to have searched and found who she is and decided she wants to lead the nation for a series of good reasons.
In one rating of experts viewed over the weekend, Senator Harris placed first in the strongest of the newly announced candidates. I think her authenticity, even more than her just beginning to be crafted policies, that gave her a boost. [View recent interview here.]
Then there is the new and youngest Member of Congress from New York, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who at age 29 is attracting considerable political and media attention. Again, her authenticity seems to be at the heart of what excites people. She may rile Democrats and Republican with her passion to upset the system, but no one can doubt her commitment to improving the future in ways in which she believes deeply. [View recent interview]
So, some might ask, what about the Republican party? Is the authenticity exhibited by Presidents Reagan and George H.W. Bush something of the past in the GOP? Well, I certainly hope not!
In former Congressman and former Governor, John Kasich, we have an undaunted warrior who seeks to spread his message, one that seems both deeply thought out and believed in. If his authenticity seems to ignite less fervor, perhaps that is due to the fact he has been so public for so long. [View recent interview]
As voters begin to focus (and Iowa Caucuses are only one year away), I believe the search for authenticity grows in importance as candidates are evaluated. Interestingly, over the weekend Senator Sherrod Brown (D-OH) shared in an interview that he was going to be himself in a quest for the presidency and if half of the voters didn't like that, then he wouldn't be President.
Let's hope the others who run will seek to really share who they are…and, even more importantly, let's hope they know!

Dear Craig,
I very much admire your articles in the Spy, and especially this one on authenticity with its quote by Jung. Your style is graceful and you always give great food for thought.
Willard Engelskirchen says
IMHO this piece is refreshing. Too many powerful people give me the sense that I would need to take a shower after shaking hands. There are some bright spots. But few. I would not count out Niki Haley. Honest debate precludes name calling.

Emma Thompson felt 'too fat' to live in LA
March 29, 2017 Comment(0)
British actress Emma Thompson has said she never moved to Los Angeles because she felt she was deemed "too fat" when she visited.
"It is a strange place and I couldn't live there," she told Swedish chat show Skavlan.
The Oscar winner also condemned the pressure on actresses to be thin.
"The anorexia – there are so many kids, girls and boys now, and actresses who are very, very thin, who are into their 30s, [and] simply don't eat," she said.
'It's getting worse'
The star also revealed she threatened to quit working on 2008 film Brideshead Revisited in reaction to a co-star who had been told to shed the pounds.
She said: "The producers said to her, 'Will you lose some weight?'. She was absolutely exquisite.
"I said to them, 'If you speak to her about this again, on any level, I will leave this picture. You are never to do that'.
"It's evil, what's happening, what's going on out there, and it's getting worse."

Thailand is a stronghold of Buddhism.
Buddhists believe that life does not begin with birth and end with death, but rather that every person has several lives based upon the lessons of life not yet learned and acts committed (karma) in previous lives.
Buddhists believe that selfishness and craving result in suffering and that compassion and love bring happiness and well-being.
The true path to peace is to eliminate all desire, a condition which Buddhists define as 'nirvana', an indescribable state free of desire, suffering, or further rebirth, in which a person simply is, and is completely at one with his surroundings.
Buddhism is practised in Thailand by over 90% of the population.

Our goal is to help as many people as possible, researchers, doctors, patients and students. We see the field of histopathology shrinking instead of growing. For research, clinical and academia, this is bad news. It seems, there's not good enough histologists taking the place of those trying to retire. This shortage of workers means less technicians do more work. When less people do more work, there is more mistakes and slower turnaround times. We want to make up for this lack of good trained technicians by taking young enthusiastic willing people and training them with our methods while working with or for us.
The founders of this company are both longtime histology enthusiasts. Both have 15+ years of working in different kinds of histology labs, leads to diverse specialties. JC Dyson is a TMA master in both paraffin and cryogenic creation and sectioning. He can also engineer any stain to perfection, no matter how hard, PGP 9.5, no problem. Hans Snyder's forte is antibodies and microscopy. Jeremy Dyson specializes in all things IT. If he can't fix it, it can't be fixed.
Our histology work is exceptional, section quality is our forte. Each histology technician can cut a 1000 slides and have 99% of the sections be perfect.

It wasn't the only celebration of the night as Purplebricks local property experts confirmed the value of the ex-AFL star's Adelaide home had increased by $160,000 since the start of the seven-day renovation! It left the couple on a high after having already fallen in love with their new home. QLD team Mel and Dave received Jess and Jared's highest score of the night with 9/10 points for their "five star" bathroom, but it was fellow QLD chippie brothers Josh and Brandon who topped the leaderboard this week with a combined 28/30 points. They won five extra points for their movie-themed bonus room, with Jared's only critique being the casual manner in which his AFL medals were left displayed on top of a cabinet.
Bedroom: They loved the exposed brick and the bed recess but the paint work was bad. Jess said: "I think maybe just the finishes around the bed is probably what got you guys. But besides that, we thought it was great.
Dining room: Jared: "We walked in and we were just blown away." They liked the fake beam in the ceiling, it hit the "New York warehouse" rule perfectly.
Mel and Dave hand over the keys to their Gold Coast home labelled "the worst house on the best street." And will it be all over for one team as an injury threatens to jeopardise their place in the competition?

Friday at 4: Notre Dame's sideline Skycam that almost wasn't, but may be again
By Douglas FarmerApr 19, 2019, 4:00 PM EDT
You didn't like it, and for most of Notre Dame's Blue-Gold Game on Saturday, Rob Hyland was not a fan of the sideline Skycam, either. The NBC Sports producer of the Irish football broadcasts wasn't a fan of the system for most of last week.
The new camera angle was designed to run via cables hung from two 135-foot cranes outside Notre Dame Stadium, but winds reaching 25 mph last Thursday and Friday made testing the system impossible. Admittedly, the Blue-Gold Game was understood to be a publicly-viewed trial, but gaining some familiarity with the new setup before the broadcast went live was also expected. Saturday's winds did not reach those speeds, but they were enough for concern to trump innovation. The cranes would not be used; instead the traditional Skycam would be re-appropriated to the sideline view.
As a result, the first half of the Blue-Gold Game became the initiation for both the production truck and the viewer. In some respects, those two approaches are one and the same.
"It was really tinkering throughout the second half, and the first half, to find what's most pleasing as a football fan," Hyland said this week. "I knew in the first half, this is never anything I want to watch, but we had to try it just to completely rule it out, just to make sure we could try that movement at different heights, different distances."
Watching the spring exhibition, the tinkering was distinct and distracting. Late in the first quarter, the broadcast returned from commercial with the camera swooping in toward the line of scrimmage, beginning high up in the stands and only aligning with the line of scrimmage as Phil Jurkovec received a shotgun snap, the camera never quite becoming stationary until after it aggressively zoomed in on C'Bo Flemister as he caught a pass in the flat, whistles blowing the play dead because Khalid Kareem had slapped Jurkovec on the rear end well before he got rid of the ball.
Just six game minutes later, though, the broadcast exited a commercial break with the sideline Skycam already in position, ready for a Lawrence Keys reverse off a pitch from Kyren Williams.
The curtailed pregame experimentation deserves only some of the fault for these early touch-and-go moments. Some things can be learned only in the flow of the game.
"We were still able to pull off what we wanted to achieve, which was how does this camera angle look? What can we do to achieve a more dynamic approach to play-by-play coverage?" Hyland said. "Those questions were answered. Unfortunately they were answered throughout the first half. Director Peirre Moossa and I kind of landed on what we really liked at the start of the second half, which was much less movement prior to the snap.
"If you watch the game back, we were drifting into the snap. In theory, it sounded like a cool idea. A sky camera is much more of a fluid image, but when it came down to it, when we stopped moving the camera in the second half, we were all much happier with the presentation."
Hyland points to a sequence with about five minutes left in the fourth quarter as a good example of that presentation. At the shotgun snap, all 22 players on the field are in the frame. The camera angle includes all of the opposing sideline and the down marker on the near sideline. Perhaps 52 of the 53 yards of the field's width are in screen. At the snap, the camera zoomed in down the line of scrimmage on a Mick Assaf rush up the middle. Two plays later, the camera operator anticipated yet another Assaf dive up the middle and zoomed in before the snap to the extent that one receiver-defensive back pairing was offscreen.
While the sideline Skycam took more than three quarters to settle upon this view at the snap, it is the view that encouraged the production truck of the innovative angle's viability. (NBC Sports)
Compare that visual to those from last year's Notre Dame home finale against Florida State. With the ball at the 16-yard line and the pivoting camera above the 22, the action is about 25 percent off-center of the screen. On the Seminoles reverse, the swarming Irish defensive line obstructs the camera angle, those six yards off-center proving detrimental.
Jump forward in a replay to the longest play of the game, a 40-yard reception by Seminoles receiver Nyquan Murray. A shotgun snap at the 19-yard line is nearly centered on the screen, but the camera immediately zooms in on the Notre Dame pass rush, which almost got to Deondre Francois. As he released the ball, not a single receiver or defensive back was in frame. The camera cut upfield to Murray with Nick Coleman in coverage, rather than following the ball to an already-in-frame receiver.
The angle of the Skycam might be able to avoid that, maybe not for every player, but much more of the routes should be visible. On the Blue-Gold Game's longest play (pictured at top at the snap), a 43-yard completion to Chase Claypool from Ian Book, Claypool was out of view as Book let go of the ball, though two receivers and defensive backs were still in the screen. The camera did not harshly pivot to Claypool, though, instead tracking Book's pass such that Claypool came into the screen with the pass still closer to its peak than to him. A far better idea of the play was conveyed than the Murray completion.
It took until five minutes remained in Saturday's broadcast for Hyland and Moossa to consistently find the proper camera height and depth to provide such an angle. This was very much a test run. No offense to the Blue-Gold Game, a better-spent afternoon than most in April, but if there is any day to test and tinker, it is during a practice. That is, after all, exactly what Brian Kelly and the Irish were doing on the field.
Finding that view by the end of the day sets up the sideline Skycam for potential future use. There are logistical issues to figure out so winds do not spark safety concerns, let alone shake the camera. By no means is it a certainty the sideline Skycam returns as the primary play-by-play view in the fall, but by no means is it inconceivable.
"Still has a lot of room for growth," Hyland said. "I hope the Notre Dame faithful don't give up on this yet. I think there's lot of room for growth, and I think it is ultimately better."
Hyland unflinchingly sees it as better because he realizes some things the common viewer does not, yours truly included. NBC's Triple Crown broadcasts, which Hyland also produces, offer more extreme examples of the issues he faces at Notre Dame Stadium, or at any football stadium.
During the Kentucky Derby in two weeks, a camera will run along the rail on the backstretch, a view first used last year. For years, Hyland had lamented the infield obstructions blocking his cameras from following the race throughout those 30 seconds of the most exciting two minutes in sports. The rail camera's success in solving that issue and also in bringing the viewer closer to the horses led to some of the thoughts about getting closer to the action on a football field.
A normal broadcast, the one we are all used to and comfortable with, utilizes three cameras for primary play-by-play: one at midfield, and one at each 20- or 25-yard line, per Hyland. For the vast majority of the game, the camera is not along the line of scrimmage, not even within five yards of the line of scrimmage. The sideline Skycam fixes that, plain and simple.
"I want this for the fall. I want Notre Dame to have a non-traditional play-by-play camera to hopefully bring the viewers closer to the action, to see the passing lanes, to see the running lanes," Hyland said before delving into the challenges needed to be overcome in order for that want to become a reality. "… There's a lot of potential to be at the line of scrimmage with a camera on any given play."
Hyland's ideal features both the traditional and the sideline Skycams, the original plan for Saturday. A logistical and production dance must be orchestrated to operate both cameras, but he has ideas for that choreography. No graphics need be lost, not even the first down line which was absent from the Blue-Gold Game.
"Discount the first half. That was our rehearsal," Hyland said. "When we got the second half, even though it was a running clock, we all felt a little bit better about where we were."
By then most judgements had been made. Hyland knows how anyone feels about change, Irish fans in particular. In a poll held here Monday, 40.5 percent of respondents felt it was an acceptable experiment for the Blue-Gold Game but nothing more, while 37.9 percent were open to regular use. On Twitter, 60 percent argued for use only in replays and 8 percent wanted the sideline Skycam as the primary play-by-play view.
For those who watched #NotreDame's spring game Saturday, I'm curious. How would you finish this sentence? "The sideline skycam should ____."
— Douglas Farmer (@D_Farmer) April 15, 2019
Hyland (and, well, NBC) should be encouraged the responses are even that open to this idea after this experiment that was adjusted from its start Saturday and took 55 minutes to find its groove. Viewers should be encouraged that somewhat-improvised product fared as well as it did, offering a tangible hint at the sideline Skycam's future potential.

Denison Launches New Charter Division
By B. Roberts / P. Joseph
Denison Yacht Sales has announced the launch of its Denison Charter Division which will encompass both Fleet Management and Yacht Vacation Services.
The new division is currently focused on building a fleet of charter yachts of 39-metres and below for cruising Florida, the Bahamas and the Caribbean and will be marketed to the worldwide charter broker network.
Ali Kaufmann, Denison Yacht Sales' charter specialist, said: "The superyacht industry overshadows the 130 feet [39 metre] and under segment of the market.
"These smaller yachts are being neglected. Our goal is to meet the strong demand for charter yachts in this size range by dedicating the specialized attention they warrant as serious charter product."
Along with Fleet Management, Denison will also be actively serving retail charter clients.
"We will provide our clients with the perfect charter opportunities to meet their needs in destinations around the globe, whether it's a sailing yacht in the Caribbean or a megayacht in the Mediterranean," Mr Kaufmann added.
In addition to its new Charter Division, Denison recently opened another location in California, thereby establishing a presence on both U.S. coasts, and is currently exploring international expansion.
Founded in 1992, Denison Yacht Sales is a full service yacht brokerage firm with offices in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and Marina Del Rey, California.

4 takeaways on the burgeoning startup ecosystem in the Philippines by Foxmont Capital Partners' Franco Varona
Written by Stephanie Pearl Li Published on 22 Mar 2022 4 mins read
Since 2021, there has been a surge of interest from foreign venture capital firms in Philippine startups
When Philippines-based livestreaming app Kumu wrapped up the first-ever Series C funding round in the country last October, it signaled how the Philippine startup ecosystem might finally be coming of age.
Indeed, 2021 was a great year for homegrown startups looking for venture funding, according to Foxmont Capital Partners, which participated in Kumu's seed, Series A, B, and C funding rounds.
"Between 2018 and 2020, we only invested in four local companies. But in 2021, we invested in 21," Franco Varona, managing partner at Foxmont Capital Partners, which focuses on Philippine startups, told KrASIA.
In 2021 alone, Philippine startups raised over USD 1 billion in equity investments, exceeding the total investment of USD 877 million over the past four years, according to multiple reports.
And more capital is expected to be raised by local startups in the coming year as investment activity gathers momentum, Varona added.
KrASIA recently spoke with Franco Varona to find out more about the investment trends in the Philippines.
The following interview has been edited and consolidated for brevity and clarity.

KrASIA (Kr): Why was there a funding boom in 2021?
Axie Infinity and Yield Guild Games took the Philippines by storm but users are starting to question long-term viability
Written by Stephanie Pearl Li
Franco Varona (FV): Before the pandemic, Facebook was the predominant driver of communications and even transactions. However, after the pandemic hit, there were many services that Facebook could not provide. Hence, many new startups such as Kumu have since filled the gap.
The pandemic was a starting point where we saw great founders come up with amazing solutions. These startups were mostly founded by Filipinos, who studied and grew up abroad, or even expatriates [who have built several successful brands in the Philippines such as e-tailer Zalora, e-commerce firm Lazada, and real estate marketplace Lamudi]. They arrived in the Philippines during the pandemic, and took the chance to make a difference as the economy experienced rapid digitalization. Because of that, 2021 became a banner year for VCs as well as the whole startup ecosystem.
For us, we will continue our focus on Philippine startups that provide real-world solutions for the local market.
Kr: Where do you see the most opportunities for Philippine startups?
FV: It always starts with fintech and e-commerce. That said, there are a lot of fintech-adjacent businesses that offer market opportunities for investors. One example is recurring payment or subscription services; only 2% of the population in the Philippines has access to a credit card. We just invested in a company called HelixPay last month, which is the first subscription payment platform in the Philippines [enabling businesses to set up and manage their users' recurring payments].
As for blockchain and crypto, there is an explosion of play-to-earn games like Axie Infinity in the Philippines. We are watching this space closely.
In all, we want to ensure that whatever investment we make, it has a long lasting effect in people's daily lives.
Kr: Can we expect to see more diversified funding from corporate investors, VCs, and private equity in the Philippines?
FV: Yes. It took many years before a Philippine startup was able to break the Series B ceiling. But over the past eight weeks, multiple companies have been breaking that barrier, including Southeast Asia-focused digital bank Tonik, crypto exchange Philippine Digital Asset Exchange (PDAX), local fintech firm PayMongo, and Bill Ease, one of the country's biggest "buy now, pay later" providers.
If you look at the investors behind those companies, most of them were relatively new to the Philippines' startup scene, such as US investment firm Tiger Global Management, KKR, and Japan's Mizuho Bank.
They [the investors] are ready to invest, and the walls have come down fast for them, which is great for our local startups. Now Philippine startups have more options, in terms of which investor they want to speak to, and what sort of capital they would like to take.
Kr: What are some challenges that homegrown startups still face when it comes to raising funds?
FV: In the past, the main challenge came from angel investors in terms of how they looked at their investments. In general, Filipinos are conservative in the way they invest and their business outlook.
Nowadays, it is much easier for local startups to raise money. For example, they can turn to VCs like Foxmont as well as active angel investors. Domestic investors are also more well-informed these days and have even formulated their own investment thesis, and understand the values they need to create an ecosystem.
Also, what we are seeing now are more startup founders who understand the local market well and are able to create innovative solutions to cater to the domestic market. This is as opposed to earlier startup businesses that do not want to focus on the Philippines and would rather look at the regional market.
Nowadays, founders are more confident about building up a business without thinking about going abroad right away. This gives investors confidence as they know the capital they are pumping in will stay in the domestic market.

Furthermore, WDS is committed to fostering compliance with agreed-upon data standards and conventions, and providing mechanisms to facilitate and improve access to data. As the leading international, multidisciplinary organization in the provision of Trustworthy Data Services, WDS has adopted Data Sharing Principles to advance its goals.
Data Sharing Principles -
Training -
As part their accreditation by the WDS Scientific Committee (WDS-SC), WDS Regular and Network Members must fulfil the WDS membership requirements and undergo a transparent and objective certification procedure to ensure their trustworthiness in terms of authenticity, integrity, confidentiality, and availability of data and services. Such certification is vitally important because it promotes trust and confidence in the usability and persistence of shared data resources. It also helps data services improve their practices and procedures.
Certification -
The ICSU-WDS Data Portal is a prototype allowing retrieval of datasets from participating WDS Members. As a first step, it provides access to currently available metadata catalogues using standards.
Data Portal -
The Knowledge Network is a Web-based, interlinked repository of relationships between the actors and entities that make up our research landscape: people, institutions, projects, research disciplines and topics, funding sources, and the like. ICSU-WDS has a stated objective to establish an aggregation of WDS Members' metadata holdings so that the extent of data and services offered are discoverable through a single interface. However, ICSU-WDS would also like to go further than this; it would also like to create a broader Knowledge Network in which additional information sources—including the WDS-IPO's existing database of Member information—are used to supplement Members' metadata by means of Linked Open Data repositories. Through this extension into Knowledge Networks, ICSU-WDS feels that it can significantly enhance the usefulness of its metadata resource and improve the ability of researchers, funding agencies, and data centre management to understand and apply this information.

Top Loans To Consolidate Debt in Lacon, Illinois 61540.
When you wish to get money for debt consolidation loans you want to look into an unsecured personal lending option in Lacon, Illinois. Unsecured means that there isn't any assets to back up the loan. Unlike secured lending options, there is nothing for the lender to take away if you default (such as a vehicle or home).
A history of settling your debts promptly and favorable credit ratings can make it easy to get a small rate on an unsecured loan. For anyone with good credit scores, rates go down as far as 5% to 6%. For people who have poor credit, you might not get accepted. If you are considered with poor credit ratings, your interest rates may be up to 20%.
Alternatives for those that have really unhealthy credit scores can include borrowing against home equity or offering collateral. All the same, the APR could be excessive, if you're able to even get approved. In such cases, you may need to identify alternative paths to take care of your personal debt difficulties.
People that have poor credit aren't very likely to acquire unsecured personal lending options. At least at a budget friendly rate. In reality, you may get an excessive rate with a loan shark. This is because a low credit score suggests that you've typically not settled your bills promptly. It may also indicate that you have maxed your lines of credit.
So when a financial institution investigates your credit report and rating, they might not want to accept your risky past. That is why you're going to be coughing up significant fees and interest rates if you're able to somehow get approval for the loan. They have to be paid for the financial risk they're dealing with for your account.
You may not get to achieve your financial objective with a substantial Interest rate on an unsecured personal lending option with a bad credit score. With a rate of interest of 19-29%, you'll still struggle. With an interest rate of 29%, you're forking over $29 for each $100 on your loan. It is usually better to search for alternative means of debt relief.
Could You Get an Unsecured Personal Loan With no Credit Check Needed?
The necessity of a credit check while applying for financing is not to be taken casually. You'll find hardly any loan providers who can let people take a loan without a credit check. Your credit rating shows just how well you've handled your credit during the past. And it offers a good indication of how you'll perform with new credit down the road.
Hence any lending institution willing to give a large unsecured personal loan without any credit check required is probably not legitimate. If it is a legitimate loan company, then you are probably going to pay high interest rates or excessive service fees. You could wind up repaying 3 times what you borrowed. Does that seem like a good deal now? While you may not like the idea of running your credit to obtain a new line of credit, you need to consent to pull your credit to get a realistic lending option .
It might not be the best time for you to get a loan if your credit is bad. You need to expect any honest financial institution to review your credit score. Even having zero credit will prevent you from receiving a fair loan. Work on your credit score before you decide to apply with a loan company.
If you are trying to find financing, you would feel happy if your prospective loan company advertised "guaranteed approval" wouldn't you? It appears like everything you need to do is apply and you'll be accepted for that loan. Who wouldn't want that type of option? That might not be safe if you look at precisely what that means.
Consider what kind of loan provider would provide guaranteed approval on a unsecured loan. If the financial institution does not learn anything at all regarding your income source or credit rating, how might they assure acceptance? Just imagine someone with no source of income whatsoever? Might a legitimate lender guarantee their acceptance for a loan? That is an opportunity for catastrophe for the loan company.
Thus the answer is no, most industry loan companies, banking institutions, and other form of financial establishment are not going to promise guaranteed acceptance on an unsecured loan. Your financial circumstances, like income source and active debt, will all be taken into account. They have to evaluate your debt to income percentage and see whether you are going to have the ability to take on your newer debt. They are seeking evidence that you could handle your finances, bills, and also a newer financial loan.
Having said that, you could get pre-approved. It's possible for them to do this via a light pull on consumer credit, that will not effect your credit score like a serious inquiry. This is not much like guaranteed acceptance, but it's as close as you're likely to get.
One important thing you need to look at when you are trying to find an unsecured loan is how much you intend to be lent. Some loan companies have lending options for as low as $1,000 and some have a minimum loan of $5,000. And they have got different maximum loans as well.
Many lenders will let you be lent up to $35,000 though another allow you to borrow up to $40K. There are even a few financial institutions which will allow you to borrow as much as $100K. Also, they can offer you more time to pay back these more substantial financial loans giving you a smaller payment but maybe a greater overall interest cost.
A higher monthly installment will allow you to pay back your debt faster at significantly less cost for you. You need to look at the different repayment amounts in comparison to the duration of your loan to find out what option best suits your budget. Even though the lure might be present to obtain more than you require, you will still have to pay it all back and if you obtain more than you'll be able to manage to settle, you may get in more difficulties than you planned.
You might be able to receive $100,000 with your Lacon, Illinois unsecured loan, but if you only need $50K, then you shouldn't try to get greater than that. Don't take a loan without attentively considering your alternatives.
How Hard will it be to Get an Unsecured Loan?
I'll use a common card gaming phrase and tell you "it depends." It ought to be easy enough when you fulfill all of the loan company's specifications. However, for those who have a few unhealthy marks on your credit rating or you have a low source of income, you will have a more challenging time being approved for the best personal loan interest rates. You definitely are not going to find the best rates if you've got poor credit. Even ordinary credit can result in greater rates and more evidence of earnings needed.
Secured loans entail collateral, so they're much easier to obtain than unsecured personal loans. Those who meet the requirements of the financial institution, should find that it's reasonably easy to get an unsecured loan. People who do not meet the loan company requirements have the choice of waiting for six months to a year while they improve their credit ratings and income. Be sure that your lines of credit aren't at their maximum and you make the installments when they're due. You can work on these matters and then you'll find that it's easier to find the financial loan you need at an affordable interest rate to offer a more affordable monthly payment.
Could Unsecured Personal Loans Pay Back Your Personal Credit Card Debt?
Even with fine credit ratings, your charge card rates can be as high as 19 to 23 percent, and are probably at least 12% - 15% Though loan companies are financing from the government with interest rates around 0%, they are charging you much higher APRs.
However, there's something you may easily do. You'll be able to avoid high credit card rates by searching for marketplace loan providers who want to boost their businesses by loaning at a reasonable rate. Using a lower rate unsecured personal loan, it'll be quick to settle personal credit card debt. You will find loans available, if you be eligible, with the low interest rate of 5.99%. Imagine the amount you could save month after month, when compared with your current interest rates.
Though credit cards revolve forever, an unsecured personal loan will include a set duration. You will need way less time to repay debt with fixed monthly payments. Depending on loan duration you pick, it may be as low as 24 months to 84 months.
Many people that are fed up with credit card issuers with the fees and excessive interest charges choose affordable web based lenders for unsecured personal loans.
A lot of Lacon, Illinois consumers would like to find an unsecured loan, in spite of little income or bad credit. Having said that, when you have low earnings or a reputation for skipped monthly payments, a good lender won't allow you to get a loan with a lower Interest rate. If this sounds like you, then you should look into other avenues to help with your debt.
But if you do have satisfactory credit reports and the earnings loan providers require, you may check out some of the best unsecured loan providers like Lending Club and Lightstream. They are the lenders which offer the lowest service fees and best interest rates. With Lending Club, you can get between $1,000 and $40,000 with an interest rate anywhere between 5.99% and 35.89%, according to what you are eligible for and need.

Engineer versus Goliath
What happens when a small team of engineers face a tsunami of investment capital into their local authority?
The legacy of the recent energy boom has been examined at the 2017 Institute of Public Works Engineering Australasia Queensland conference.
Gladstone was ground zero for the multibillion-dollar Liquid Natural Gas (LNG) investment, which took the industry from nascent to world class in a relative wink of the eye.
Conference delegates in Townsville were given a first-person account of the development, which transformed nearby Curtis Island into a site for three processing and storage facilities.
As the infrastructure was commissioned, the tide of investment turned and has remained out since 2016.
Gladstone Regional Council engineer Celisa Faulkner was part of team tasked with the job of overseeing the rollout of services to meet a spike in demand for infrastructure and accommodation.
At its peak more than 14,000 people were employed on the mega-projects pumping around $1.5 billion in wages into the city.
She said the feeling at the time was that the city was ready for the looming boom.
"But we were using 2005 standards when the boom started so it became an issue to assess construction approvals," Ms Faulkner said.
"The department was also drastically understaffed with (only) one engineer, two technicians and three to four administration staff on board.
"By 2013 the staff couldn't cope and it wasn't until we had four to six additional engineers working that conditions improved."
In 2011 there were 59,500 residents and in 2016, the population r plateaued at 68,000.
The lack of housing in the city reached crisis level and by 2012 as the council was developing costly green-field sites for additional housing.
"We tried to push developers to build work camps earlier but they wouldn't. In hindsight we should have looked at ways to encourage them," Ms Faulkner said.
Post-construction phase council development approvals plummeted and the city had seen median housing prices tumble by $100,000, she said.
Residents also face a rising rate base that reflects the boom days when added infrastructure was built to meet community needs.
"In hindsight, we found out the hard way that you can never do enough planning," Ms Faulkner said. "We have been left with a lot of legacy infrastructure."
The gas is transported are by a 540km long pipeline from fields in the Bowen and Surat Basins.
Ms Faulkner also debunked a widely held view that Gladstone was a boom or bust city.
"We even have a P&O cruise ship visit the city," Ms Faulkner said.
