Emily Meisler / May 9, 2013
One of the shocks of childhood is the realization that adults can be even more capricious and absurd than children. Although some pretend that life is predictable and logical, adulthood is often chaotic, replete with characters whose motivations are difficult to decipher. Enter the Alice in Wonderland at the Children's Theater Company, a flashy and high-energy production that left me wondering what is stranger: the cheshire cat's floating smile or my next door neighbor's hundreds of socks left to dry on the line every week. That's a lot of socks.
The play opens on Alice in a tutoring session. But while Alice's tutor expects her to pay attention to history for hours at a time, the Children's Theater Company doesn't take a second of its audience's attention for granted. The opening scene before Alice's wacky dream is as brief as possible, and director Peter Brosius has the audience in Wonderland within about ninety seconds. Once there, Brosius uses every resource at his disposal to engage the audience, including a range of flashing lights and a cacophony of sound effects that, while wondrous at first, left me feeling a bit woozy by the end. He could have gone without some of the flash because the best moments in this production are the simplest ones. To reveal their details would ruin the wonder of it all, but the direction is both playful and precise, well complemented by Brian Sostek's choreography, which includes several ingenious sight gags that pull the audience's attention only to surprise us somewhere else.
You should see the production for the adult actors alone, as they give some of the best performances I've seen in Twin Cities theater. Dean Holt's Mad Hatter and Humpty Dumpty are the highlights of this production, and Autumn Ness left us trembling after her scenes as the Queen of Hearts. Many of the children are also impressive in their ensemble roles. Of course, I could grumble–the second act went on too long, Anna Evans as Alice is left with little to do but gawk, and the inclusion of Carroll's Jabberwocky felt out of place–but this production left me grinning for days, so those quibbles really aren't worth your time.
Overall, Brosius could have more clearly connected the nonsense of Wonderland to the senselessness of everyday life. While he mentions that resonance in the program note, the parallel doesn't go much further. But maybe I'm looking for something this adaptation simply wasn't meant to deliver. After all, it's impossible to stay grumpy during this production, and– on a day in May when summer weather seems impossibly far away– I can't give a much better endorsement than that.
Alice in Wonderland by by Lewis Carroll, adapted for the stage by Sharon Holland, produced by the Children's Theater Company, 2400 3rd Avenue South in Minneapolis. April 30 – June 15th, tickets $35-$45. Childrenstheatre.org

The free agency period of 2010 was all of the talk in the NBA from the 2008 season until LeBron James bolted to Miami. In most of the conversations, the talk revolved around James possibly leaving Cleveland for New York. If the Knicks could not land him, their focus would shift to Dwyane Wade.
There was not much discussion about what New York would do if they could not land Wade, either. However, this was all cleared up when Amare Stoudemire signed there. But, it was clear Stoudemire was not the final piece for the Knicks. They began targeting Carmelo Anthony.
Carmelo Anthony had built the Denver Nuggets from a perennial loser into a contender over the span of seven years, gaining respect in the NBA. Even with LeBron James' powerful dunks, he could not lead his Cleveland Cavaliers to the playoffs until his third year. Carmelo Anthony and the Nuggets suited up for the playoffs every year, regardless of their opponents.
But, after seven years and no championships, Carmelo Anthony announced he would not re-sign with his longtime Nuggets when his contract expired. Instead, he would be looking to join another superstar on another team. Mid-season, the Denver Nuggets were in the middle of a playoff run, but had no chance to breaking into the top four. Anthony was highly disappointed and the Nuggets opted to trade him before he left them with nothing.
When Carmelo Anthony joined Amare Stoudemire and the New York Knicks, there was immediately discussion about how good they automatically became. Some said the Knicks were as good, if not better, than the revamped Miami Heat, with their big three. This talk intensified when the Knicks rebounded from a 15-point hole to defeat the Heat in Miami in Anthony's first trip to South Beach with New York. But, wins have been few and far between since their statement victory.
The move to New York has not bothered Carmelo Anthony's skills. He has continued to put up the big numbers for the Knicks. But, when it comes to wins, New York is struggling. Before the trade, the Knicks were, at one point, close to breaking into the top four in the Eastern Conference. Now, they are close to finding themselves battling with the Indiana Pacers and Charlotte Bobcats for the final playoff spot in the east.

Newborn giraffe dies when mother accidentally steps on its neck after giving birth
Mon, January 18, 2021 by ABC News
HomeNationalNewborn giraffe dies when mother accidentally steps on its neck after giving birth
By JON HAWORTH, ABC News
(NASHVILLE, Tenn.) — A newborn giraffe has died in a tragic accident shortly after it was born when it was stepped on by its own mother.
The incident occurred at the Nashville Zoo and was announced on Jan. 16 when the zoo's pregnant giraffe named Nasha went into labor as thousands of people watched the event live online during a live feed.
Shortly after labor, however, complications with the baby giraffe began to develop and medical intervention was required from Dr. Matthew DeLisle from the Tennessee Equine Hospital and the zoo's veterinary team who were able to eventually successfully deliver the calf.
"The calf appeared to be thriving on an initial exam," said Dr. Heather Schwartz, Nashville Zoo's Director of Veterinary Medicine. "We moved the newborn to be with her mother and the two were bonding. During this time, Nasha may have inadvertently injured her calf. The giraffe keepers noticed that the calf was in distress."
According to a statement from the Nashville Zoo, the animal care team immediately intervened but were unsuccessful in their attempts at reviving or saving the calf.
A necropsy showed that the newborn giraffe had suffered trauma to the neck but the giraffe will undergo further testing to see if there may have been any underlying causes involved with the death although initial observations did not indicate anything specific.
This was Nasha's first birth and the Nashville Zoo said that she is doing well in spite of the tragedy and that zookeepers will be giving her "an abundance of comfort and care for the next few days."
"We are devastated over the loss of Nasha's calf," said Rick Schwartz, Nashville Zoo's president and CEO. "Our staff has worked tirelessly to make sure this calf was given the best possible care. We moved from fear of a stillborn to joy of revival to anguish."
Nasha's pregnancy was being followed by thousands of people all over the world thanks to three cameras that had been installed in her pen by ABC News' Nashville affiliate WKRN-TV.
"The station's news programs frequently updated viewers on the status of Nasha's pregnancy and encouraged people to watch the 'Baby Giraffe Cam' through their website. Nashville Zoo also included the live cameras on their 'Baby Boom' webpage," the Nashville Zoo said in a statement.
The zoo also posted the tragic news on Instagram saying: "We are heartbroken to announce that Nasha's calf died shortly after our birth announcement earlier … Thank you all for your support over the past few weeks and especially during this tough time."

The Quantum Age Will Require a Quantum Generation
(FairObserver) Author Benjamin Verdi focuses on the need for, and the already encouraging progress toward, educating the next generation of computer scientists, developers and engineers in what any of these words and concepts mean, what quantum computing is and, just as importantly, what it can be.
What quantum will be is what the next generation of students — the most technologically-skilled cohort ever assembled — refers to not as "quantum," but simply as "computing."
Too many American public policy proposals in the quantum realm have begun and ended with public investment in hardware, sparing little attention or resources for the education of the next generation of engineers who — for any national quantum program or policy to succeed — must be equipped to use it. Some encouraging developments, however, indicate that the importance of quantum education and a quantum-skilled workforce may finally be taking root. There are several entities leading the charge to identify quantum education as a critical need, as collections of the right leaders in the right rooms (virtual or otherwise) are currently conducting the first wave of conversations necessary to educate the workforce the quantum age will require.
The first such institution is the US Army. Placing a renewed emphasis on the development of its people, and the attraction of top industry talent to roles of public service, the US Army has led the way from a federal standpoint in committing to the modernization of its workforce for the quantum age.
A layer beneath the modernization of federal agencies sits the collaborative approach of the US National Science Foundation, the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, and a smattering of the country's largest technology firms referred to as the National Q-12 Education Partnership.
Such partnerships should set ambitious goals for themselves and inclusively embrace the full breadth of talent waiting for them within a generation that is as unprecedentedly tech-savvy as it is diverse. Quantum must be more than yet another driver of inequality. Its transformational potential is too great to hoard in Palo Alto or Cambridge.

No postings for the past several weeks due to some pretty heady depression. It's taking a toll on my marriage, my emotional state and my stamina, but I've now been called out and hopefully will get back to a normal reality soon.
This past Tuesday my clever sister, Claudia, dropped by in between insurance calls. I was just returning from a follow-up eye doctor appointment and as I went whizzing by the house on my way to Valu-Mart for some pick-up items, I noticed her car in the drive, did an immediate U turn back home to see her. Her and Nat seemed to be having a nice chat as I waltzed in the room to see what was up. We had a great visit and she up-dated us on the lives of her two children, Darby and Tyler. Darby is now in the works of completing her Masters in Emergency Planning, Prevention and Disaster Relief. She's one of only a handful of women who will be qualified for FEMA in the U.S. and she has so much to be proud of. Her brother, Tyler, has landed a vehicle appraising job in Toronto and from all accounts is having a good time and will soon be living in an extremely well-known area of the City. Otherwise, he's landed on his feet after his management job at Target was dissolved. I, along with their mom, am very proud of both, mainly because of the emotional hurdles they had to jump after their parents' divorce and the work they've done to achieve their successes.
We also began to talk about the garden party wedding for our nephew, Dalton and his fiance´, Kate, we've been invited to this September. Both of us agreed that it was going to take some time to find dresses, mainly because of our "womanly" sizes and the lack of choice in St. Catharines. As her and Darby have always enjoyed shopping in Toronto, and various other U.S. States on some of their trips, she invited me to go shopping with her and Michele at The Bay (Eaton Centre) that following Sunday. I took one look at Nat and jumped at the chance. He knew, too, it was a no brainer!! I was soooo looking forward to Sunday.
Trying to find things to do for the rest of the week was somewhat fruitless. Nat's back has been a bit more liveable with the new slow-release pain killers he was prescribed but we've both been a bit lacking in energy of late. I know why his energy level is down, but mine was just plain laziness. Everything between us seemed to be going pretty good until Saturday afternoon when we received another email from Laura. As I had de-activated my Facebook account Wednesday afternoon because of her and because I truly have no interest in anything that goes on within that program, she found a way to let Nat know that I had done so. Suddenly she was going to post the time for Karly's get-together in a couple of weeks on Facebook so she could do just one posting for Susan's family and for us. This somehow seemed very odd to me, as she's never done any such postings of the like in the past. Besides posting dates and times of any get-together on Facebook is frowned upon due to security issues, and I'm pretty sure Laura knows this. But she had found a way to let her Dad know what I had done. It also seemed funny as Susan did not get the same email as us "Hey there…was going to use Facebook but saw that the account is deactivated again – figure this way I can tell you both about the details." Everyone also knows that you can send one email to multiple people!!! So, naturally Nat asked me about it and again, I got defensive and another argument broke out. Back and forth about Laura's methods and choice of words and trying to explain that I've always hated Facebook, and that I have no interest in any postings about philosophical messages, party goers and misinterpreted news items. I further explained how I felt like I was being spied on by Laura and how anything I "Liked" or commented on was being judged. Deactivating the account was my only way of not being tempted.
Nat was now, I'm sure, at his wits end on why I was being so obsessive about this whole "Laura" affair and supper was eaten in silence. As Saturday wore on we were still in the mix of arguing when Claudia called to tell me when I should be at her place on Sunday. As we were talking I began to break out in tears and would apologize to Claudia on Sunday.
Sunday arrived with great anticipation. The trip to Toronto was certainly eventful as the discussion soon turned to me and my emotional state and obsession about Laura and how my depressions over the years have only been about Laura and her need for attention. Without fail, both Michele and Claudia, tried to get through to my thick little brain that I had to see their therapist, Mary, so she could teach me coping skills for my depression and how to deal with people like Laura. They passed on their words of wisdom of what they had both learned from their sessions and everything they said seemed to hit the nail right on the head for me. Every word that came out of my mouth seemed to tell them that I was, in fact, in a depression. They explained why I kept taking the blame for everything, why I kept putting myself down and why I just had to rise above Laura and her snide remarks or comments. They pushed the fact that everything was not my fault, that there was fault on everyone's side and that I had to take care of my emotional state and not try to please everyone. It was also drummed into me that I had to stop taking everything so personal. My God, they were good. Each one of them could be therapists by now, as they both knew just how to handle me. I was now beginning to wonder if this whole trip was some sort of plot between Gail, Nat and Claudia as some sort of "intervention" and Michele was brought along for support.
Naturally, we arrived at the Eaton Centre in no time, as our talking had passed the time so quickly. Within minutes we were headed up the escalators to our section of The Bay and we were in shopping heaven. I couldn't believe the amount of inventory for dresses, blouses, pants, shirts, Tshirts, shorts, and whatever else in women's clothing. Within half an hour Claudia and I had picked out a couple of dresses to try on but they were dismissed for some reason or another. Then Michele soon walked over from the Toni + department with a gorgeous red, lavender, white sleeveless dress to die for. It was just what I had envisioned for a garden party wedding. Alas, the size was too small and we hung it back on the rack and began to look some more. We soon came up with a couple more dresses – black and white, navy floral print to try on. Meanwhile, Michele had slipped back to Toni to ask the clerk if they had any more sizes in the dress I dearly loved. What were the odds, they did, and in my size!! I just had to try it on. It was perfect, except for the sleeveless part. Claudia and Michele soon told me about Shrugs and how these little goodies would be perfect as a short cover-up. One problem, however, the price of this dress was a bit beyond what we mere mortals would pay for a summer dress. We had the clerk hold it for an hour while we tried to search for a lesser priced alternative.
I tried on the other two dresses we had picked out, neither one of which were bad, but my mind kept going back to the one Michele had found – she knows me all too well. Back we went – it was a done deal. Plus as luck would have it, the price of the dress would validate Claudia's parking pass. Two birds with one stone – couldn't get better than that. My spirits were now lifted. I'd go home, find a Shrug, matching sandals and I'll be set for September without any further worry or hustle bustle at the last minute.
The three of us then found a small lunch counter, grabbed some sandwiches and had a nice chatty lunch. Claudia had also mentioned that she could take us by Darby's apartment in Oakville on the way home. Another event I was looking forward to, as most of the family have seen it, except for me and Michele. I wasn't disappointed, her apartment was beautiful and in a gorgeous setting down a side street but still close to all amenities and her job. She had landed a good one. It's still difficult for me to wrap my head around the fact that "little Darby" was now a professional working woman, with the world at her feet. How great is that!!!
I woke up Monday morning on an emotional high, but just a bit tired from soooo much walking. I did keep up with Claudia and was proud of that fact – the treadmill was working. I could see the happiness for me in Nat's eyes and when I showed him the dress he went "Wow" which is a compliment Nat has never expressed since our wedding day. My feet went even higher off the ground. This was going to be a great day and God willing a new beginning.
Claudia and Michele's words of wisdom are still ringing in my ears and I'm forever grateful to each of them for their time, effort and support – and I still think this was a set-up job. No matter what it was, it was needed – they knew it and I know it now.

Spectral Characteristics and Mapping of Lithium-rich Playas for Use in Western U.S. Basin and Range Mineral Assessment of Lithium Active
By Geology, Energy & Minerals Science Center July 9, 2019
Project objectives are to compile and examine mineral maps of the known lithium-bearing playas in the U.S., Chile, and Argentina using field and remote sensing data to better understand the mineralogy of these deposits. After mineral assemblages are identified, mineral maps for lithium-rich plays will be compiled using ASTER data.
Scientific Issue and Relevance
The USGS identified the need for more assessment and exploration of lithium-bearing mineral deposits. The major source of current lithium production is from brines extracted from playas located in places such as Clayton Valley, Nevada, Salar del Atacama, Chile, and Salar del Hombre Muerto, Argentina. Lithium-rich playa exploration in the U.S. is focused on the U.S. Basin and Range province where the Clayton Valley playa and at least 80 additional playas of similar or greater size are located.
According to the current deposit model, lithium-bearing playas are situated in closed basins that are surrounded by ash-tuff flows that have been partially hydrothermally altered to produce lithium-rich clays such as hectorite. In addition, the deposit model indicates that the significant playa deposits of lithium-bearing brines also exhibit current geothermal activity and the presence of gypsum and halite, although these associations are not fully understood. The lack of a detailed mineralogical assemblage for these types of deposits is a significant shortcoming, especially with respect to developing remote sensing assessment techniques. An increased understanding of the spectral characteristics and surficial mineralogy of lithium-rich playas will improve ASTER mineral mapping algorithms for use in creating regional mineral maps.
Methodology to Address the Issue
To better understand the mineralogy of these deposits we plan to compile and examine mineral maps of the known lithium-bearing playas in the U.S., Chile, and Argentina using field and remote sensing data. We also plan to utilize an existing geochemical model that predicts which playa mineral assemblage should develop from specific types of rocks and deposits (Eugster, 1980) that are associated with mapped lithium-rich brines. New spectral characteristics and pathways of lithium-rich clays, which are being examined in other USGS projects will also be utilized in ASTER mineral mapping of playas. This approach will help us identify the mineralogical assemblages associated directly with these deposits and possibly with mineral assemblages that surround the playas. Such an approach will provide larger targets and vectors toward Li-bearing brines.
Determine mineralogy associated with lithium rich-playas using Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflectance Radiometer (ASTER), and Airborne Visible / Infrared Imaging Spectrometer (AVIRIS) data, and field work.
Develop and validate mineral mapping algorithms using ASTER data.
Produce regional mineral map of U.S. Basin and Range using ASTER data and mapping algorithms.
Develop basic ranking system for each playa based on mapped mineral assemblages.
Produce map of ranked playas of U.S. Basin and Range for U.S. lithium assessment.
Project Tasks
Key minerals that are associated with lithium-rich playas at Clayton Valley, Nevada, Salar de Atacama, Chile, and Salar de Arizar, Argentina will be identified and mapped using ASTER data and on-site work
Acquire and calibrate additional ASTER data for regional mapping of the study area
Investigation of types of lithium-rich deposits
Spectrally map part of the Clayton Valley deposit

Harita Kaur Deol, first woman in Indian Air force to do solo!!
Navrang India January 08, 2016

Avro HS 748 trainer Aircraft. www.aircraftresourcecenter.com
The women world over, particularly in non-European countries, in the last several decades have got out of the safe and warm cocoon set by the conservative societies and proved their worth. Conservative communities traditionally discouraged women to move freely in the society and it took a while for the women to climb the social ladder and now they occupy important positions in government and private companies. As for Indian military, Navy and Air Force, the scenario changed long ago and there are numerous women being recruted each year. Unlike white colllar jobs, work in the military services needs better health, agility, foresight and vision, not to speak of guts.
Harita Kaur Deol (1972 – December 25, 1996), a pilot with the Indian Air Force, became the first woman pilot to fly solo in the Indian Air Force. She did this extraordinary feat on 2 September, 1994 in an Avro HS-748 and that time she was just 22 years old. After taking off into the sky she played hide and seek with the moving mystic clouds at an altitude of 10,000 feet and made history on that day and brought in laurels for the entire women's world, thus proving that women are equally competent and courageous as men are. Mind you as mentioned before, she was just too young to achieve this success.
Unfortunately as the saying goes "He, who is to be hanged, shall never be drowned'' the fate had it that she was one of 24 Air Force personnel to die when an Indian Air Force Avro aircraft, crashed near the Bukkapuram village in Prakasam district of Andhra Pradesh on Dec. 25, 1996.
Being a native of Chandigarh, Punjab, India she came from the Sikh community whose members follow the teachings of saint Guru Nanak. The Sikhs are supposedly great warriors and stand for their integrity and dedication. Miss Deol became one of first seven women cadets inducted into the Air Force as Short Service Commission (SSC) officer at a time when the defense department needed trained pilots for transport planes. As part of training, she along with other cadets, underwent training in various aspects of air transportation at Air Force Academy, Dundigul near Hyderabad. She received additional training at Air Lift Forces Training Establishment (ALFTE) at Yelahanka Air Force Station, near Bangalore, Karnataka.
Upon landing at the air force base after her historical first solo in the air, she received applause and congratulations from a cross section of people. Being casual as she was, she was never overwhelmed by her feat and said, ''I am happy I was the first to do a solo and that I lived up to the expectations of my instructor," Her stint in the Indian Airlines, her experience as a transport pilot and her ability in making sorties and necessary tricky maneuvers in the sky helped her complete the solo successfully. According to her trainer Air Commodore P.R. Kumar, Air-Officer-in Command at Air Lift Forces Training Establishment (ALFTE), Yelahanka Air Force Station she had perfect take off and landing, more than the standard set by the Air Force.
Later in the same year Ms. Deol underwent final phase of training at Yelahanka Air Force station to be inducted as officer in the squadron service. The training was given on Avro and AN-32. On successful advanced training she was posted to at the Air Force Academy, Secunderabad, in December this year as commissioned officer.
Though this brave woman is not alive, lots of Indian women have derived inspiration from her hard work and bravery and are anxious to seek a carrier in Air Force in spite of dangers lurking in the shadow in such work.

Q: IntelliJ IDEA and Android Studio terminal doesn't recognize emoji, while Mac terminal does I have a different emoji in my .bash_profile config depending on the user in the terminal. I have both IntelliJ and Android Studio and the emoji shows as a broken character (Two squares). Is there any way to get intellij to recognize emoji. I have a couple of user profiles and I set the emoji to provide me with an easy way to know what profile I'm in without taking up 10 characters in the cmd line. This way, I save 9 chars.
I know this sounds like a bit of a ridiculous request (Who the heck needs emoji in terminal), but since the Mac terminal supports it, I suppose it wouldn't be a huge deal to get it working in IntelliJ?

Chargers, Rivers at crossroads after disappointing season
By JOE REEDYDecember 30, 2019 GMT

COSTA MESA, Calif. (AP) — The Los Angeles Chargers go into the offseason at a crossroads. Not only are they moving into a new stadium but they have to confront who will be their quarterback not only for next season but beyond.
Philip Rivers was at the team complex on Monday as teammates cleared out their lockers and coach Anthony Lynn gave his final speech of the season to players and staff. Rivers did not appear in the locker room during the hour it was open to reporters while his locker was mostly cleared out with the exception of a card and a pair of workout clothes.
Rivers was emotional after Sunday's 31-21 loss to Kansas City because it could have been his final game after 16 years wearing powder blue. He threw for 4,615 yards, which were fourth in the league, but his 20 interceptions were third most and just one off tying his career high.
The only stat that matters to Rivers is the team's 5-11 record and last-place finish in the AFC West.
"I didn't do enough this year to help us win more football games and I take responsibility for that in the plays and the mistakes I should be responsible for," he said.
The only thing certain for now is that Rivers intends on playing next season. Whether it is with the franchise he has called home for 16 years or another team will be sorted out over the next three months.
"Can I still do it? No question. Do I still want to? Absolutely," Rivers said. "I've never been in this situation. We'll see. I'm thankful for the 16 years and if there's another one, I'll be thankful for that. I think with the uncertainty there comes that unknown."
Lynn said he would like to have Rivers back, but he is not exactly waiting for a decision before running through all the scenarios. Tyrod Taylor is under contract next season and the Chargers have the sixth overall pick in what is expected to be a deep quarterbacks class in the draft.
"Who wouldn't want a guy with those intangibles and that production? I love what he represents and stands for," Lynn said. "I have a lot of guys to look at, not just Phil. I'm sure it is going to happen sooner or later, but there's no rush."
The Chargers tied for the most wins in the AFC last season by winning close games, having a balanced offense and limiting turnovers.
This season was the opposite. Los Angeles lost nine of its 11 games by one score, didn't have much of a running game and tied for the worst turnover differential in the league.
The seven-win decline was the worst dropoff in the league this season and the second biggest in franchise history. Lynn said he began the end of season evaluation process Sunday night and doesn't plan on taking any time off.
"You're 5-11, everything is on the table," he said. "I can't rest. There is no vacation. I can't go on the golf course or the beach without solving this problem."
Rivers, running back Melvin Gordon, tight end Hunter Henry, safety Adrian Phillips and fullback Derek Watt are the team's higher-profile unrestricted free agents. Running back Austin Ekeler is a restricted free agent.
OFFENSIVE STANDOUTS
Ekeler showed he could pick up the load with Gordon likely gone due to free agency. Ekeler was fourth in the AFC in touchdowns (11) and fourth in scrimmage yards (1,550) with most coming out of the backfield as a receiver. He finished 10 yards shy of becoming the fifth running back in league history to have a 1,000-yard receiving season.
Ekeler and Keenan Allen are the fist duo in franchise history to have 90 catches or more. Allen set a team record with 104 receptions, marking the second time in three seasons he has had 100 or more catches.
Mike Williams got his first 1,000-yard receiving season (1,001) and led the league in average yards per reception (20.1). Williams had a string of seven straight games when he had at least one catch of 25 yards or more, joining Anthony Miller and Isaac Bruce for the longest streak since 1981.
BOSA BOUNCES BACK
Joey Bosa played in every game after missing half of last season due to a foot injury. The Pro Bowl defensive end finished with 11 1-2 sacks and set a career high with 31 quarterback hits. Bosa also showed he is much more than a pass rusher by coming up with huge stops in the run game.
Defensive coordinator Gus Bradley said Bosa's biggest growth has been in the mental aspects of the game in terms of not getting easily frustrated.
14 — Takeaways by the defense, the lowest in franchise history. This is the 24th time since the merger a defense has forced 14 or fewer turnovers.
HOW TO GET IT RIGHT
Lynn and general manager Tom Telesco will both be on the hot seat going into next year. Besides solving who will be the quarterback, the Chargers need to dramatically overhaul the offensive line, which struggled without left tackle Russell Okung and center Mike Pouncey.
Pouncey, who did not play in the final 11 games after having neck surgery, said he is optimistic about returning. If he does, both guard spots need to be addressed along with right tackle and finding depth at left tackle.
The Chargers also have needs at linebacker. Fourth-round pick Drue Tranquill was the team's best rookie, but they are still lacking depth at the position as well as at cornerback and defensive line.
The more immediate concern is who will be the offensive coordinator after Ken Whisenhunt was fired at midseason. Shane Steichen did a solid job, but the team was still beset by struggles in the run game.
With the Chargers moving into SoFI Stadium and already concerns about attendance, Telesco and Lynn are going to need a banner offseason to prove the franchise is more like the one that made the playoffs in 2018 instead of the one that consistently came up short in 2019.

Diversity on the Bench
MARK SHERMAN, Associated Presscmaadmin (EDU)
If President Barack Obama wants to make the Supreme Court more diverse, he has a wider range of options than any of his predecessors. When Ronald Reagan was president, only about 40 women served on the federal bench, the most common source of Supreme Court nominees.
Today, more than 200 women hold federal judgeships, along with 88 African-Americans, 60 Hispanics and eight Asian Americans.
All but four of the 110 Supreme Court justices in the nation's history have been white men. Two are African-American men, Clarence Thomas and the late Thurgood Marshall, and two are white women, Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Sandra Day O'Connor.
There has never been a Hispanic, Asian American or Native American justice.
Ginsburg is the only female justice at the moment and most of the candidates whom Obama is considering are women.
The president also has a much wider range of experienced lawyers to draw from than Reagan did when he reached down to a midlevel appeals court in Arizona to nominate O'Connor.
"The pool was simply not as broad or as deep as it is now," said Marcia Greenberger, co-president of the National Women's Law Center.
Before Jimmy Carter came to the White House in 1977, presidents beginning with Franklin D. Roosevelt had put just eight women on the federal bench. Carter added 40 female federal judges in four years, including Ginsburg.
Today, 212 full-time federal judges are women, more than a quarter of the federal judiciary.
State Supreme Court judges — many of them elected — have an even higher share of women. Nearly a third of the judges on those courts are women. On 22 out of 53 courts, women make up at least 40 percent of the judges. (The list includes Washington, D.C., as well as two high courts each for Oklahoma and Texas.)
The rise in the number of women as judges reflects steady growth in the number of female lawyers. About a third of lawyers, as well as roughly half of law school graduates, are women.
"I wouldn't say the doors have swung open as fully as we would like," Greenberger said. "Nonetheless, there are superb women in the judiciary, academia and private practice."
The numbers are smaller for minorities. Of the 793 full-time federal trial and appeals court judges, 88 are African-American, 60 are Hispanic and eight are Asian American. There are no Native American judges.
Again, Carter brought much greater diversity to federal courts than any of his predecessors. In the 16 years beginning with the election of John F. Kennedy, presidents filled 21 judgeships with African-Americans. The total double counts Marshall, who was made an appeals court judge by Kennedy and then put on the Supreme Court by President Lyndon Johnson.
Carter nominated 37 African-American judges in his single term. He named 16 Hispanics, more than twice as many as previous presidents combined.
George W. Bush and Bill Clinton before him significantly raised the number of women and minorities in the judiciary. Nearly 30 percent of judges nominated by Clinton and more than 20 percent of Bush's picks were women.
African-Americans made up 16 percent and Hispanics accounted for 7 percent of Clinton-nominated judges. The numbers were 8 percent and 10 percent, respectively, for Bush.
Sometimes, though, a president's desire to increase diversity gives way to other political concerns. In 2005, Bush nominated a woman, Harriet Miers, to take O'Connor's spot. But Miers withdrew from consideration under criticism from the president's conservative allies.
By The Numbers: Presidents and the total number of judges they named, broken down by women and minorities, dating from the presidency of Franklin D. Roosevelt, who was the first to nominate a woman to be a federal judge.
Franklin D. Roosevelt: 184 judges, 1 woman.
Harry Truman: 131 judges, 1 woman, 1 African-American.
Dwight Eisenhower: 165 judges.
John F. Kennedy: 125 judges, 1 woman, 3 African-Americans, 1 Hispanic.
Lyndon Johnson: 167 judges, 3 women (including the first African-American woman), 9 African-Americans, 3 Hispanics.
Richard Nixon: 220 judges, 1 woman, 6 African-Americans, 2 Hispanics, 1 Asian American.
Gerald Ford: 62 judges, 1 woman, 3 African-Americans, 1 Hispanic, 2 Asian Americans.
Jimmy Carter: 258 judges, 40 women (including the first Hispanic woman), 37 African-Americans, 16 Hispanics, 3 Asian Americans, 1 Native American.
Ronald Reagan: 358 judges, 29 women, 7 African-Americans, 14 Hispanics, 2 Asian Americans.
George H.W. Bush: 187 judges, 36 women, 11 African-Americans, 8 Hispanics.
Bill Clinton: 367 judges, 104 women (including the first Asian American woman), 61 African-Americans, 23 Hispanics, 5 Asian Americans, 1 Native American.
George W. Bush: 321 judges, 71 women, 23 African-Americans, 30 Hispanics, 4 Asian Americans.

Meretz goes to High Court over TA Shabbat buses
MK Horowitz says transportation minister is ignoring needs of non-car-owning public, 'surrendering to religious coercion.'
By JOANNA PARASZCZUK

Members of the left-wing Meretz party petitioned the High Court of Justice on Wednesday morning, asking the court to order the Transportation Ministry to allow public transport on Shabbat in Tel Aviv.
In February, the Tel Aviv Municipal Council approved a resolution to ask the Transportation Ministry for permission to operate public transport on Shabbat.
Meretz Councilwoman Tamar Zandberg proposed the motion in conjunction with the secularist Be Free Israel organization, and Tel Aviv Mayor Ron Huldai also supported it.
However, hours after the motion passed, Transportation Minister Yisrael Katz rejected it outright, saying he had no intention of violating the status quo.
In their petition, Meretz representatives MK Nitzan Horowitz and Meretz faction members from the Tel Aviv Municipality argued that Katz's refusal to consider Shabbat transport was contrary to his obligations under the law.
The petitioners stated that about 40 percent of Tel Aviv- Jaffa residents do not own a car, that the city has around 35,000 non-Jewish residents and that allowing public transportation on Shabbat would also have positive environmental implications.
The petition further notes that Haifa and Eilat already run public transportation on Shabbat, taxi services run all throughout the country and that the Transportation Ministry also permits Ben-Gurion Airport to run on Saturdays.
Katz had "completely disregarded" these considerations, the petitioners contend.
Among other things, the petition also addressed the transportation minister's argument that he did not want to change the status quo.
The petitioners argued that the "status quo," including regarding Shabbat public transportation, dates back to before the State of Israel was established.
In 1947, when the British Mandate of Palestine had a population of around 400,000 Jews, David Ben- Gurion wrote a letter to the Agudat Israel, the original political party representing ultra-Orthodox Jews in prestate Israel.
In that letter, the future first prime minister of Israel made promises about "saving the country's Jewish character," the petition said, arguing that this was the roots of what Katz referred to as the "status quo."
Attempts to anchor the "status quo" in legislation have failed, the petitioners continued.
The transportation minister is obligated as a representative of government authority, to consider all relevant data when deciding specific issues, so that the public derives the greatest benefit, they added.
"Efficient public transport must work seven days a week," Horowitz said on Tuesday. "Suspending this essential service because of religious coercion, is intolerable, harmful to the environment and to society."
The Meretz MK added that the resolution by the Tel Aviv Municipality regarding public transport on Shabbat was a "historic decision."
He accused the transportation minister of surrendering to religious coercion and "hiding behind the hollow facade of the 'status quo.'" "The government is mistreating the large segment of the public who do not have a car, who cannot drive or who do not want to pay for fuel and parking, and who would like public transportation, all because of ancient arrangements with ultra-Orthodox parties, which are now obsolete," Horowitz added.
"We hope the High Court will put an end to this folly and allow municipalities and cities who wish to run public transport on Shabbat to do so, just as they do in Haifa and Eilat, without disturbing the ultra-Orthodox public," he said.
Zandberg said that Meretz filed the petition because the faction believed the transportation minister's refusal to consider public transport on Shabbat was unreasonable and not really lawful.
"[The issue] is of great importance and central to our lives," Zandberg said, adding that the "status quo" had lost its relevance a long time ago.
Tel Aviv Deputy Mayor Meital Lehavi, also of Meretz, touched on environmental issues, adding that people are forced to purchase private vehicles because there is no public transport on Shabbat.
On Wednesday afternoon, the High Court asked the transportation minister to file a response to the petition by May 31.

Issey Miyake's Yoshiyuki Miyamae Demonstrates Pleats, Folds, and 3-D Steam Stretch
By Eliza Jordan
Issey Miyake has transformed the way we look at, wear, and appreciate clothing's every fold. Famous for pioneering the creation of intricate pleats in the late 1980s, the team behind the Japanese fashion house has been made up of hard-working, keen-eyed creators of all sorts, deeply invested in the fabrics down to the very last thread. For last year's Holiday 2015 limited edition series "Record," women's designer Yoshiyuki Miyamae visited New York to demonstrate some deliberate decisions that took the brand further into innovating within its 3-D Steam Stretch technology, while offering something quite special for our long-term memories and senses.
Issey Miyake changed how pleats were made by creating them after the fabrics were cut and sewn together. This method, done since 1997, then embraced a custom type of pleat collection known as A-POC (standing for "a piece of cloth"), made into a collection for both men and women presenting one-size fabrics that were machine-pressed and given the option to be cut into various shapes, picked by the end consumer.
Miyamae joined Issey Miyake, working on A-POC in 2011. "Before I entered Issey Miyake, my only experience was actually drawing, or making clothing," explained Miyamae on a visit last winter to New York. "But with A-POC, with starting from one piece of cloth, I really was able to learn about textiles, and actually making something."
Just a year later, he began working with the team to create a new type of technology, now widely known as 3-D Steam Stretch, which took three years to develop and perfect. After working with a new type of fabric that contracted into origami-like pleats when exposed to steam, Issey Miyake was ready to present something new to the world. The composition of different polyester and cotton weaves were first tested as paper prototypes, and then computer software was used to create everything from scratch—from yarn into fabric, and from design into three-dimensional patterns. For their Spring/Summer 2015 collection in Paris last year, the new technologically advanced collection dominated the industry, leaving behind readily available fashion in its wake.
Demonstrating firsthand at Issey Miyake's TriBeCa location to present the "Record" accessories, we were able to get a closer look at the craftsmanship behind 3-D Steam Stretch. On a large contraption, we watched Miyamae present an oversized piece of pre-stitched fabric—one in which he proceeded to cut and shrink with steam from an everyday iron. Before, it was a bright, smooth piece of material that hung slack to the ground. Yet with every bit of released steam from a handheld iron, we watched the fabric come alive, crinkling and shrinking into intricate patterns made of seamless polyhedron pleats. The end result hardly resembled what he started with, as a model slipped the transformed garment on over her head with ease, and swiftly walked away.
Miyamae can also be credited with building off of the idea of the 3-D Steam Stretch technology by using computer programming. The accessories collection "Record" was inspired by staff photos taken in its headquarter cities of New York, Paris, London, and Tokyo. After working with Alexis Andre of Sony Computer Science Laboratories, the team was able to extract the colors seen in the photos—a brand-new technology known as omoiiro—to establish four color schemes to match each city. "It comes from omoide, which is like a memory, so it's basically memories that you make in the course of different experiences—taking a trip, things like that," said Miyamae. "So memory collectors." Each collection includes a whimsical 3-D Steam Stretch pleated bag, necklace, corsage, and an actual vinyl record that encompasses bustling sounds from each designated city "because it's a memorable sound," said Miyamae. "Or the memory of the sound."
The collection is a jubilant inauguration for the future of omoiiro technology, and one that everyone is quite pleased with. "We both wanted to work together," said Miyamae of working with Andre. "He thought [the program] was something that could contribute to the world, and it happened to be a good match with what we were looking for. But it also made Alexis happy, because it wasn't just for Sony—it was something that could contribute to the world that this lab would be contributing. That's part of their purpose."

Abuja, Nigeria: The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has mocked the All Progressives Congress (APC) following the pelting incident which marred the ruling Party's rally in Ogun state on Monday.
According to the opposition party, the violence which marred the APC campaign in Ogun is a sign that the people have rejected them.
The Party said the people of Ogun state, and indeed, the South West, have shown that they are in direct alignment with other states and geopolitical zones of the country our country in rejecting misrule, injustice, pain and anguish.
The PDP said that in contrast to the outcomes of the APC rallies, it's candidate Atiku Abubakar's campaign has continued to receive rousing reception in all parts of the country, adding that Nigerians will have a breath of fresh air under his leadership.
response by Nigerians to his four years misrule as depicted in the expansion of poverty, corruption, divisiveness and bloodletting in our nation.
It is instructive to note that Mr. President was pelted in Abeokuta barely 24 hours after his Zamfara state rally on Sunday, where he attempted to incite Nigerians to join the APC in their planned resort to violence to derail the 2019 general election, having realized that they stand no chance of winning the election.
Osinbajo, whose administration has foisted so much injustice and brought unprecedented pain and anguish to Nigerians.
Mr. President can now see that Nigerians cannot be bought with N10,000, as he was made to believe by Prof. Osinbajo and members of the cabal in his Presidency.
deal him a crushing defeat on February 16 by voting enmasse for thepeople's candidate, Atiku Abubakar, as the next President of our country.
Atiku Abubakar, whose campaign has continued to receive rousing reception in all parts of the country.

Attendance Up This Year at DuQuoin Fair
Published on September 10 2019 1:41 pm
Last Updated on September 10 2019 1:42 pm
Nearly 124,000 people attended the Du Quoin State Fair this year, up 23% from last year's attendance of just over 100,000 people. The attendance is the highest in at least four years.
"The 2019 Du Quoin State Fair was a record hit, with double digit increases in attendance, grandstand ticket sales and revenue – but more importantly, the people of Southern Illinois had a great time enjoying everything the fair had to offer," said Governor JB Pritzker. "My administration has invested in improving the Du Quoin fairgrounds, and I'm committed to making this historic fair successful for decades to come, so that this economic engine can continue to benefit not only Du Quoin, but all of Southern Illinois."
"This year's success at the Du Quoin State Fair is humbling as we work to bring the fair back to what I remember as a kid," said Josh Gross, Du Quoin State Fair Manager. "The fair was an event that you circled on your calendar and something you would never miss. Our goal is to bring it back to a can't miss event, and the jump in attendance we've seen shows we're moving in the right direction."
The increased attendance follows a decision by fair officials this year to eliminate the $2 admission cost, making it free for all to attend. Other indicators also demonstrate the fair's improvements this year. The grandstand saw a 26% increase in tickets sales and 37% increase in revenue this fair season, generating more than $97,000.
The 2020 Du Quoin State Fair will run August 28- September 7.

Where Was A Thin Line Between Love and Hate Filmed?
'A Thin Line Between Love and Hate' is the directorial debut of Martin Lawrence, who also portrays the character, Darnell Wright. When Darnell tries to distance himself from Brandi (Lynn Whitfield) after pursuing her relentlessly, he has no idea that he messed with the "wrong woman." The film takes us through the eventful life of Darnell Wright in Los Angeles and makes us curious to know if it was also shot there. Here is what we found out about the filming locations!
A Thin Line Between Love and Hate Filming Locations
The film gets its title from the eponymous 1971 song by The Persuaders. The production on 'A Thin Line Between Love and Hate' commenced on June 5, 1995, and wrapped up on August 11, 1995. Let us take a look at where it was filmed.
'A Thin Line Between Love and Hate' was filmed entirely in Los Angeles, California. The city is perfectly situated amid a wide range of geographical features such as the ocean, desert, and hills. There is no doubt that L.A. is the ultimate location for filming with its gorgeous sunsets and the bustling downtown. The most recognizable landmarks of the city include the Hollywood Sign, Hollywood Bowl, Dodger Stadium, and Bradbury Building.
One of the important landmarks that served as a filming location for this movie was the Los Angeles City Hall. It is located at 200 North Spring Street and is 454 feet high with 32 floors. The building designed by John Parkinson, John C. Austin, and Albert C. Martin, Sr., completed construction in 1928.
The city is also home to the "Big Five" studios – Universal Pictures, Paramount Pictures, Warner Bros. Pictures, Walt Disney Pictures, and Columbia Pictures. These are also the biggest, some of the oldest and best-equipped studios in the world. Some of the iconic productions that were filmed in L.A. are 'Die Hard,' 'Grease,' 'La La Land,' and 'Back to the Future.'
The economy of Los Angeles is driven by the entertainment and fashion industry, earning it the reputation for being the "Creative Capital of the World." This is not surprising since, reportedly, one in six residents work in the creative industry. Los Angeles sets the historical record to be the city to have the highest number of filmmakers, actors, musicians, writers, and other artists.

Talent and responsibility: is there a Sachin Tendulkar in your youth team?
Posted by Rowland Jack on 11 October 2013
The announcement by Indian cricketer Sachin Tendulkar that he will retire next month after a remarkable 24 years playing at international level is a reminder of the responsibility that governing bodies and sports clubs bear for nurturing young talent.
Tendulkar was a child prodigy who smashed records at school and became the third youngest in the history of the game to play test cricket. In short, his talent was so outrageous that it stood out for all to see.
It's not always so simple. There are numerous examples of footballers discarded early because they were too small or didn't fit in in some way who went on to be successful at other clubs. Across all sport, the transition from dominant junior to successful senior is unpredictable.
As talent-spotting is so uncertain, young athletes are sometimes treated like a commodity to be exploited: an endless production line of boys and girls to be pushed hard, tested and quickly discarded if they don't make the grade.
In fact, clubs and governing bodies increase their chances of producing a star if they have good procedures in place:
- High standards of coaching
- Responsible adults to take care of minors who may spend a lot of time away from their families
- Proper medical oversight to prevent injuries
- Guidance to keep young athletes away from typical risks which could affect any teenager, but also those specific to sport such as doping and match-fixing
- Equitable selection processes and criteria
Every coach has known young athletes with considerable talent who did not progress for one reason or another. It's inevitable that some will drop out along the way but here is a thought which could or should keep sports administrators awake at night:
If the next Sachin Tendulkar turns up to play in the youth team, would he or she have the right support to achieve their potential?
Imagine if a talent like that is lost because of poor coaching, bullying or an avoidable injury. An opportunity to transform the club or governing body would be missed, and also the recognition that comes from nurturing a superstar.
I can't think of a better motivation for good management in a sports organisation.

The GOP Tax Bill Is A Big Win For U.S. Oil And Gas
Venezuela's PDVSA Says Making Bond Payments, Urges Trust
Oil and gas rights sales in Saskatchewan more profitable this year: government
The GOP tax overhaul passed both chambers of the U.S. Congress, although a lot remains to be done before a bill can reach the President's desk. Still, there are a lot of changes in store for energy, and because much of the discrepancy between the two chambers is focused on some big-ticket tax items—and not energy—we can be reasonably confident about what to expect from the legislation in regard to the energy sector.
On its face, the GOP tax proposal seems to be a big win for oil and gas. The most obvious item is the opening of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR), which, if not for the multi-trillion-dollar tax overhaul in question, would be a blockbuster proposal on its own. Republicans have pushed for years—decades—to open up ANWR to drilling, but have been stymied by opposition from the other side of the aisle. It's hard to believe that the opening of ANWR, tucked into the tax bill, has received so little attention. But there are bigger fights these days.
The inclusion of the ANWR language was critical to securing Alaska Senator Lisa Murkowski's vote, and because the margin for error in the Senate is razor thin, there is little chance of that provision getting touched when the House and Senate try to reconcile their respective pieces of legislation.
A few months ago, the Washington Post reported that the Trump administration's Interior Department was quietly working on rules to allow seismic testing in ANWR, in the event that Congress acted to open up the refuge for oil and gas drilling. It seems that with the passage of the GOP tax bill likely, the Interior Department might allow the industry to hit the ground running. Still, the remote location and lack of knowledge on the prospect for oil production in ANWR means that drilling won't suddenly take off, particularly with shale in the Lower 48 offering a better business case. But, as the obstacles are removed, the industry will probably get its chance.

But ANWR isn't the only aspect of the tax bill affecting the energy industry.
Renewable energy could be hit hard. The House bill slashes tax credits for wind and solar, while the Senate version retains them. Those tax credits, readers may recall, were extended at the end of 2015 in exchange for a lifting of the decades-old ban on crude oil exports. The subsidies were supposed to last until the end of the decade, before phasing out by 2022.
A more obscure provision—the Base Erosion Anti-Abuse Tax (BEAT)—would be scrapped under the Senate bill. It's a complicated provision, but it would subject multinational renewable developers to a new 100 percent tax, which would be "devastating" to the entire industry, according to a letter sent to Congress by the American Council on Renewable Energy and other clean energy groups. Renewables projects would no longer be able to take advantage of tax equity, and the tax equity market would "collapse," which would lead to "a dramatic reduction in wind and solar energy investment and development."
Also, the last-minute inclusion of the Alternative Minimum Tax in the Senate bill could put other clean energy tax credits out of reach for the industry.
In addition, the House retroactively changed how wind projects qualified for a tax credit—a move that the American Wind Energy Association (AWEA) estimates would put 60,000 jobs and $50 billion worth of investment at risk. The provision, AWEA says, "would kill over half of new wind farms planned in the U.S."
Related: Analysts Raise 2018 Oil Price Forecasts After OPEC Deal
Oil and gas, on the other hand, would emerge unscathed. In fact, a last-minute provision tucked in by Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) allows oil and gas companies to be taxed at a lower rate. How this works is that energy companies classified as "master limited partnerships" could be taxed under the reduced "pass-through" rate. Other tax breaks enjoyed by the oil and gas sector are left untouched, save for one credit for producers of "marginal wells" and for "enhanced oil recovery."
To be sure, there are a lot of changes afoot given that both chambers need to reconcile their differences. For instance, the inclusion of the AMT, most analysts seem to think, was an eleventh-hour move in the Senate to make the bill comply with budgetary rules. There is speculation that it won't survive the final bill, although removing it means that revenue will have to be made up elsewhere.
However, overall, the final tax bill will likely carry out what the Trump administration has tried to do for much of its first year: reward oil and gas while taking aim at renewables.
