Plectreuridae  — семейство аранеоморфных пауков из надсемейства Pholcoidea. 30 современных видов этого семейства распространены на юго-востоке США, в Мексике, Коста-Рике и на Кубе. Останки трёх ископаемых видов обнаружены гораздо шире: в доминиканском и балтийском янтаре и в юрских отложениях северо-восточного Китая.

Таксономия

Современных и ископаемых представителей объединяют в четыре рода:

 †  — инклюзы в доминиканском янтаре (миоцен);

 †
 †  — юрские отложения Внутренней Монголии возрастом около 165 млн лет;
 †
 †  — инклюзы в балтийском янтаре возрастом около 44—49 млн лет (эоцен).

1 Chronicles 191 Chronicles 21
1 Chronicles 20 New International Version (NIV)
The Capture of Rabbah
20 In the spring, at the time when kings go off to war, Joab led out the armed forces. He laid waste the land of the Ammonites and went to Rabbah and besieged it, but David remained in Jerusalem. Joab attacked Rabbah and left it in ruins. 2 David took the crown from the head of their king[a]—its weight was found to be a talent[b] of gold, and it was set with precious stones—and it was placed on David's head. He took a great quantity of plunder from the city 3 and brought out the people who were there, consigning them to labor with saws and with iron picks and axes. David did this to all the Ammonite towns. Then David and his entire army returned to Jerusalem.
War With the Philistines
4 In the course of time, war broke out with the Philistines, at Gezer. At that time Sibbekai the Hushathite killed Sippai, one of the descendants of the Rephaites, and the Philistines were subjugated.
5 In another battle with the Philistines, Elhanan son of Jair killed Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, who had a spear with a shaft like a weaver's rod.
6 In still another battle, which took place at Gath, there was a huge man with six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot—twenty-four in all. He also was descended from Rapha. 7 When he taunted Israel, Jonathan son of Shimea, David's brother, killed him.
8 These were descendants of Rapha in Gath, and they fell at the hands of David and his men.

20 And it came to pass, that after the year was expired, at the time that kings go out to battle, Joab led forth the power of the army, and wasted the country of the children of Ammon, and came and besieged Rabbah. But David tarried at Jerusalem. And Joab smote Rabbah, and destroyed it.
2 And David took the crown of their king from off his head, and found it to weigh a talent of gold, and there were precious stones in it; and it was set upon David's head: and he brought also exceeding much spoil out of the city.
3 And he brought out the people that were in it, and cut them with saws, and with harrows of iron, and with axes. Even so dealt David with all the cities of the children of Ammon. And David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
4 And it came to pass after this, that there arose war at Gezer with the Philistines; at which time Sibbechai the Hushathite slew Sippai, that was of the children of the giant: and they were subdued.
5 And there was war again with the Philistines; and Elhanan the son of Jair slew Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, whose spear staff was like a weaver's beam.
6 And yet again there was war at Gath, where was a man of great stature, whose fingers and toes were four and twenty, six on each hand, and six on each foot and he also was the son of the giant.
7 But when he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea David's brother slew him.
8 These were born unto the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
1 Chronicles 20 New King James Version (NKJV)
Rabbah Is Conquered
20 It happened [a]in the spring of the year, at the time kings go out to battle, that Joab led out the armed forces and ravaged the country of the people of Ammon, and came and besieged Rabbah. But David stayed at Jerusalem. And Joab defeated Rabbah and overthrew it. 2 Then David took their king's crown from his head, and found it to weigh a talent of gold, and there were precious stones in it. And it was set on David's head. Also he brought out the [b]spoil of the city in great abundance. 3 And he brought out the people who were in it, and [c]put them to work with saws, with iron picks, and with axes. So David did to all the cities of the people of Ammon. Then David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
Philistine Giants Destroyed
4 Now it happened afterward that war broke out at [d]Gezer with the Philistines, at which time Sibbechai the Hushathite killed [e]Sippai, who was one of the sons of [f]the giant. And they were subdued.
5 Again there was war with the Philistines, and Elhanan the son of [g]Jair killed Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.
6 Yet again there was war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature, with twenty-four fingers and toes, six on each hand and six on each foot; and he also was born to [h]the giant. 7 So when he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of [i]Shimea, David's brother, killed him.

What Does Intel i3 and i7 Mean?
by Andy Josiah
The Intel i3 and the i7 are references to the Intel Core i3 and the Intel Core i7, respectively. They are both entries of semiconductor company Intel Corp.'s premier Core brand of consumer-oriented processors, or central processing units, which go on desktop and laptop personal computers. The i3 is the entry-level CPU of the brand, while the i7 represents the top-level division.
The Intel Core i7 kicked off the beginning of production of the Core i-series CPU when Intel Corp. introduced it in 2008. It replaced the previous production cycle, dubbed Core 2. The Intel Core i5 followed in 2009 as the i7's lower-level counterpart. In 2010, however, Intel Corp. debuted the Intel Core i3, which relegated the i5 to mid-range status. The arrival of the i3 confirmed the retirement of the Core 2 brand.
The Intel Core i3 is strictly a dual-core chip. This means that it has two cores, or processing units. The Intel Core i7 also has dual-core CPUs. However, it also offers quad- and six-core chips; these versions are thus greater in processing power than the dual-core chips. Each in their second generation of production, the i3 uses the 32-nanometer manufacturing process, while the older i7 chip uses both the 45-nm and 32-nanometer manufacturing processes.
Each Intel Core i3 and Intel Core i7 CPU has a processing speed, which is the rate at which the chip executes its fundamental tasks; and a data transfer speed, which is the rate at which the processor conducts transmission of data with the motherboard. At the time of publication, the i3 has a processing speed range of 1.2GHz to 3.33GHz, while that of the i7 is 1.06GHz to 3.46GHz. Each first-generational i3 and i7 chip has a data transfer rate of 2.5 gigatransfers per second, while the second-generational processors offer twice that rate. The enthusiast-focused i7 Extreme CPU, however, top them all with 6.4GT/s.
As 64-bit processors, the Intel Core i3 and Intel Core i7 processors have technologies such as Hyper-Threading for enhancing multitasking, SpeedStep for boosting performance while saving power, and Execute Disable Bit for anti-virus protection. Also, each chip has an Intel Smart Cache for providing high-speed access to the computer's most frequently used data. The second-generational chips have an Intel HD Graphics chipset for providing basic graphics processing. Intel adds Turbo Boost technology on the i7 chips, which increases the processing speed when the operating system demands it for optimal performance. This feature enables the i7 to reach processing speeds as fast as 3.73GHz.

Despite the traditional focus of network science on static networks, most networked systems of scientific interest are characterized by temporal links. By disrupting the paths, link temporality has been shown to frustrate many dynamical processes on networks, from information spreading to accessibility. Considering the ubiquity of temporal networks in nature, we must ask: Are there any advantages of the networks' temporality? Here we develop an analytical framework to explore the control properties of temporal networks, arriving at the counterintuitive conclusion that temporal networks, compared to their static (i.e. aggregated) counterparts, reach controllability faster, demand orders of magnitude less control energy, and the control trajectories, through which the system reaches its final states, are significantly more compact than those characterizing their static counterparts. The combination of analytical, numerical and empirical results demonstrates that temporality ensures a degree of flexibility that would be unattainable in static networks, significantly enhancing our ability to control them.

Watch U.K. Jazz Group Sons Of Kemet Deliver An Explosive Midnight Set

Sons of Kemet perform at Big Ears Festival in Knoxville, Tenn. (Image Credit: Annabel Edwards/NPR)
"Jazz built for arenas."
A friend and former rock critic shared this admiring assessment of Sons of Kemet, after seeing the band for the first time at this year's Big Ears Festival. There's obviously truth in it: Over the last eight years, Sons of Kemet has not only fueled the fires of a raging London jazz scene; it has also scaled up the pyrotechnics, in strictly musical terms.
With Shabaka Hutchings on tenor saxophone, Theon Cross on tuba, and Eddie Hick and Tom Skinner on drums, it's a hardy combustion engine that also feels like a breathing organism. Arenas, sure, but this is also jazz built for street parties. And certain proudly eclectic fests.
At Big Ears in Knoxville, Tenn., Sons of Kemet brought its exultant blend of carnival rhythm, club abandon and jazz improv to a midnight show that packed The Mill & Mine, a cavernous room that once housed the Industrial Belting and Supply Company. The set drew from a knockout recent album, Your Queen Is a Reptile, but with a spirit of freedom in the moment — whatever setting you think suits it best, it's music made for a perpetual now.

How do you distill the spirit of the Monterey Jazz Festival into a single band? Considering the ethos of the annual event, the band was designed to be a celebration of diverse international talent, forward-thinking sensibilities and just plain killin' performances. For artistic director Tim Jackson, that was the task at hand in 2018, marking the festival's 60th anniversary.
The end result is The Monterey Jazz Festival On Tour. It's a band of six individually acclaimed performers from the next generation of stars: Cécile McLorin Salvant, vocals; Bria Skonberg, trumpet, vocals; Melissa Aldana, tenor saxophone; Christian Sands, piano and musical director; Yasushi Nakamura, bass, and Jamison Ross, drums, vocals. The band toured through North America in March and April of 2019 and Jazz Night in America captured the band's stop at Jazz at Lincoln Center, which features original tunes from different members of the band with new accents from project collaborators.

Jazz, Love and Letting Loose: Brooklyn's Surprising Senior Jazz Scene
(Image Credit: Colin Marshall/NPR)
As a producer on Jazz Night in America, part of my job is to highlight the intersections of jazz and everyday life. It's easy to get caught up in the large, romantic art projects and album releases, but what about the stories that are happening in our own backyards? When I started asking that question, I was introduced to Jazz 966.
Odds are, when you think about going out, whether it's clubbing or to hear live music, you don't envision an elderly crowd. Most traditional clubs aren't set up to cater to the aging population and as a result, senior music lovers can be left out in the cold. There's where Jazz 966 comes in. Founded in 1990 by the Fort Greene Council in Brooklyn, N.Y., Jazz 966 is a senior center by day, but, on Friday nights, it transforms into a swinging jazz club. 966 is an affordable, inclusive, and lively refuge for seniors to hear live music — and, arguably, more importantly, to dance. The club's lineup runs the gamut, ranging from neighborhood locals to renowned jazz giants like trumpeter Wynton Marsalis.
At Jazz Night, we accompanied two of the club's regulars, Ted Harvin, 81, and Delrosa Marshall, 74, through a typical evening. The duo has been frequenting the club for almost a decade now, and it's become a pivotal place for them to socialize, especially as Ted's mobility has decreased. Despite the additional challenges they face, including reckoning with aging, the joy that music and dance bring them prevails. "I think my outlook on life hasn't changed since I was 20," Ted says, "I know that she says, 'Well, why are we here?' We're here to enjoy life, and that's the only thing we can do: Just enjoy it."

Snapchat: home to engaged and interactive sports fans in 2020
Snapchat has released great new insights into the engagement of live sports. This data can illustrate the importance of using Snapchat to sports clubs that have not already taken advantage of this opportunity.
You don't realise what you've got until it's gone, I'm sure the sports fans will agree. Sports is and will continue to be a big part of our lives. This has been demonstrated by the engagement of sports fans via Snapchat when they are unable to attend games physically.
What did Snapchat's insights show?
On average, 17% of Snapchatters around the world have started watching through Snapchat because they are unable to attend games during the pandemic.
Not only do these fans stream sports content, they also generate sports-based content. For example, 38% of users watch highlights and or bonus clips of other sports content when watching the game. And 30% of users share their stories while watching sports.
While the experience of watching sports is currently unconventional, users of Snapchat are just as happy to see their home teams and favourite sports back in the swing of things. Snapchatters have the ability to explore teams that they might not have known through Snapchat's Discover tab.
This platform is more important to us now than ever before. It offers us a sense of normality and comfort as we can connect with friends and family who we can't see at the moment.
The importance of sport to Snapchat users
In March 2020, major sports leagues, including the NHL, MLB and NBA, announced that their seasons would be postponed. Football leagues in a variety of countries continued to play, but did not play in front of a crowd.
However, in September 2020 as sporting activities started to run again, 52% of US Snapchat users were delighted to have their sport returning to their lives, with a third of them being more patriotic to their team than ever before.
In the United Kingdom, 44% shared this passion, with a quarter feeling more appreciative of sports and the enjoyment it can offer. Sport fans using Snapchat were ecstatic when they could watch sporting events like the good old days. One-in-four and one-in-six users are following a new team or even a whole new sport. It also highlights the future success this is redeemable for sports clubs when using Snapchat.
The return of sports games was greeted with massive cheers from fans, but the players could not hear them. In the US, 40% of users of Snapchat do not enjoy alternative methods of watching.
Similarly, in the United Kingdom (35%) and Canada (28%), share this perception of doubt with the current viewing method. Altogether, a third of Snapchat users share a common view that empty stadiums and recorded crowds impede the enjoyment of watching the game.
What do Snapchat users want when watching sporting events?
People don't only want to watch the sporting events, they want the whole experience that goes with it. Snapchatters from the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom and Australia have asked that the players have microphones to hear their viewpoints on the game as well as virtual fan sections. The ability to hear players and see virtual fans helps viewers gain a little nostalgia from the modern way of watching.
At the moment, fans are making the social media platform a second-screen destination while watching sport. In the US, for example, 29% of users send snapchats to their group chats while they watch. Some, 28% to be precise, watch their friends' stories, and 20% make their own stories. The highlights of the Discover page are in use by 26% of users.
However, fans still want to improve their experience, which is why they prefer Snapchat as their channel for sporting events. Over a third of all users of Snapchat want sports teams to use Snapchat as a vessel for more content. For example, a behind-the-scenes experience of events or the opportunity to experience certain stadiums through augmented reality.
Using Snapchat as a way to watch and learn more about sporting events or other sports is a perfect opportunity for a sports club. Fans would like to see and hear more about them! This platform would allow clubs to increase their interaction with current fans and allow more potential fans to discover them. Sporting fans are going to Snapchat to engage, so why wouldn't clubs use it to their advantage?

30 Days Of Public Lands > Keep the Elliott Public
Submitted by shauna_sherard on Wed, 2017-04-05 09:48
After intense pressure from sportsmen and a shift in legislative strategy, Oregon Treasurer Tobias Read said last week that he now supports keeping the Elliott State Forest in public hands.
Read was a vital vote in the effort to sell the 82,500 acre forest for $221 million sale to Lone Rock Timber Management and the Cow Creek Band of Umpqua Tribe of Indians. With Governor Kate Brown and Read now publically supporting keeping the forest, the board of three, which includes Republican Secretary of State, Dennis Richardson, now has a majority in favor of the Elliott. Richardson has stated he continues to support the sell-off.
While Read contends that this is not a reversal in position, noting his position was always to hold up his fiscal responsibility to the school fund, sportsmen are breathing a sigh of relief to have a way forward on the Elliott that does not include its wholesale disposal.
"We understand the state has a responsibility to make money off the land for the Common School Fund," said Dean Finnerty, southwest organizer for Trout Unlimited. "But selling off public lands was never the answer. They're not making more land these days. Hunting and fishing are a way of life in this area and the Elliott is a centerpiece for that heritage. We're impressed with Read's willingness to look at all solutions and support his and the Governor's efforts to keep these public lands in public hands. We are seeing assaults on our lands across the country and as sportsmen, we're proud of our local elected officials for coming to the table and working out difficult issues rather than taking the easy way out."
CHart said on Saturday, April 8th, 2017
Folks out west are fortunate to have the public land access they do and it's great to see them standing up for it, because once it is gone, it is gone.

(an acronym for "Woman Acts for her Kid Adam"), 2013, Cameroon/France, 97 min, directed by Cameroonian filmmaker Francoise Ellong, tells the story of Matilda, a 30-something-year-old single woman abandoned by her family, who works as a waitress in a bar, when her life is shaken up after her boss finds out that she's pregnant, and opts to fire her.
Matilda, superbly played by actress Patricia Bakalak, is faced with the choice of either getting rid of her baby and keep her job, or having the child, losing her job, but managing as best as she can to raise the baby. She chooses the latter, is fired from her job, and finds it extremely difficult to get hired elsewhere. That's when Max, a pimp, enters her life, and, as manages to get her work for her on the streets.
Matilda falls in love with another man, who loves Matilda and the boy for their self-worth. As Matilda wants to quit her job on the streets, Max refuses and tightens the control over her, demanding payback for the "investment" he made into her.
