Neil Young And Bob Dylan Set To Co-Headline British Summer Time 2019
Further names are due to be announced for this historic one-off show scheduled for 12 July 2019.
Tim Peacock
Neil Young and Bob Dylan have been confirmed to co-headline the 2019 British Summer Time Festival on 12 July, with further artists to be revealed in due course.
The festival organisers have announced that tickets will go on general sale from 9am on Friday, 30 November 30 while a Barclaycard pre-sale is now under way.
Senior vice president of AEG Presents, James King, says: "Barclaycard presents British Summer Time has always tried to deliver the greatest possible one-off live experiences for music fans in London.
"Being able to bring together two of the biggest cultural icons together for this historic day of music counts as possibly the biggest event we have ever delivered in Hyde Park."
Head of experiential marketing and partnerships for Barclaycard, Daniel Mathieson adds: "I'm blown away by the calibre of music royalty coming to Barclaycard presents British Summer Time Hyde Park 2019.
"With these legendary artists already confirmed, and many more still to be announced, you won't want to miss it."
Dylan and Young have performed together many times previously and have repeatedly expressed their admiration for each other's artistry.
In a 2005 interview, Young said: "I'll never be Bob Dylan. He's the master. If I'd like to be anyone, it's him."
Returning the favour in 2007, Dylan told Rolling Stone: "He's sincere and he's got God-given talent. With that voice of his and the melodic strain that runs through absolutely everything he does…There's nobody in his category."
For the British Summer Time show, Young will be backed by Promise of the Real, with whom he recorded 2017's album The Visitor, their second studio album together and this year released the soundtrack album Paradox. The band features Willie Nelson's sons Lukas and Micah. They also star in Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga's acclaimed new movie A Star Is Born, with Lukas as musical consultant.
This summer's event featured Roger Waters, Eric Clapton, The Cure, Bruno Mars, Michael Buble and saw Paul Simon's play his last-ever UK concert.

A Wrexham primary school has been praised for its "vibrant and stimulating learning experiences" after a recent inspection.
Brynteg County School has been judged as good in all areas of the process, which was carried out in January 2019 by Estyn, Her Majesty's Inspectorate for Education and Training in Wales.
Such areas include the school's standards, wellbeing and attitudes to learning, teaching and learning experiences, care, support and guidance and leadership and management.
The report continues onto say: "The staff ensure that the arrangements to support pupils' wellbeing are thorough and rigorous.
"This is a significant strength and an exceptionally positive aspect of school life. Staff encourage pupils to work together and consider the views of others effectively.
"As a result, most pupils are confident, treat others with respect and their behaviour is good.
The inspection report adds: "During their time at the school, many pupils make strong progress from low starting points. They develop effective literacy and information and communication technology (ICT) skills.
"Most pupils behave well, care for each other's feelings and demonstrate respectful attitudes to staff and visitors to the school. Most pupils feel safe at school and praise the staff's care, support and guidance.
"The school provides a broad range of vibrant and stimulating learning experiences that improve pupils' skills successfully.
"Teaching and assessment procedures support most pupils to achieve well from their individual starting points. Teachers and teaching assistants respond sensitively to the needs of all pupils, including those that are most vulnerable.
"Additionally, they provide valuable educational opportunities, effective guidance and purposeful support for parents.

In my last blog article I argued that the strong angel in Rev 10 is Christ. He appears several times in Revelation by means of angelomorphism. In this article I will focus on the open book in his hand.
The strong angel (Christ) of Rev. 10 comes down out of heaven holding a little book which was open: "He had in his hand a little book which was open" (Rev 10:2a). Commentators have long debated the identity of this "little book" (biblaridion) and its relationship to the "book" (biblion) of chapter 5. Though many scholars distinguish the two, a significant number hold that the little book in Revelation 10 the scroll taken by the Lamb in Rev. 5.
(1) Revelation's flow suggests it: the earlier heavenly scenes present the "book" (Rev 5) and only gradually unseal it (Rev 6-8). It would now properly be open at this juncture. Its being open is mentioned twice (10:2, 8), apparently for emphasis.
(2) Previously, in heaven Christ alone could take the book to open it (5:3-8); here Christ descends from heaven holding it open and in his hand (10:2). Thus, in both chapters Christ is in control of the heavenly book(s). In fact, the last time we see it he has it in his hand (5:7-8; 6:1, 3, 5, 7, 9; 8:1).
(3) Both chapters paint their scenery with the same images: a "strong angel" who cries out loudly (5:2; 10:2), a "lion" (5:5; 10:3); the prominent taking of the book from the heavenly hand (5:7; 10:8-9); and references to heaven, earth, and sea (5:13a; 10:6b) and to God's eternality (5:13b; 10:6a). This strongly links the two passage.
(4) Both passages make obvious allusion to the narrative in Ezekiel 2–3. Rev 5:1 describes the scroll as written inside and on the back, as does Eze. 2:10, which is unusual for scrolls are not usually written on the backside. Rev. 10:19 John is commanded to eat the scroll which will taste like honey (3:1) and which contains a bitter message for Israel.
By bringing the book of Revelation 5 back into view, we learn of the theological consequences of the opening of that book, i.e., the redemptive-historical results of the judgments upon Israel. In the preceding context John notes that Israel does "not repent" under God's judgments after the book had already been unsealed (8:1; 9:21-10:1). Nevertheless, the larger purpose of God is not thereby thwarted. As Revelation will ultimately demonstrate, John agrees with Paul: "I say then, they did not stumble so as to fall, did they? May it never be! But by their transgression salvation has come to the Gentiles, to make them jealous" (Ro 11:11).
We will discover in the following verses in this chapter and in later chapters (chs. 20-22) that the devastation of Israel in A.D. 70 leads to the full, permanent, and final inclusion of the Gentiles into the kingdom of God. With this judgmental affirmation the debates of Acts 11, 15, and Galatians are dramatically and resoundingly resolved forever: the Gentiles are now numbered among the people of God and are not subject to old covenant ceremonial strictures.

HAWAIIAN AIRLINES – MOANA AIRCRAFT REVEAL
This is rare for us (to write about a movie) but being locals of the general Pacific islander culture, we are excited to share about an upcoming feature film that pays homage to these once great explorers of the uncharted Oceans. Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson stars as the demi-god Maui in Disney's Moana and has themes throughout of Polynesian dance, music and overall culture.
Like all great Disney movies, the cast, animators, and producers traveled to these island nations in the Pacific to grasp the spirit of these once great exploring societies. To sum up a long and detailed history, here's a fun fact: Polynesians are believed to have been spread throughout the Pacific islands by 1300 BCE, making them the most advanced voyagers in History. Fast forward a few millennia and we have the most efficient, modern day voyagers: Hawaiian Airlines. Hawaiian Airlines teamed up with Disney for the first time to bring three Moana themed aircrafts.
Decked inside out, this aircraft has the spirit of Moana throughout its design.
This aircraft is dedicated specifically to the demi-god, Maui and is currently flying around the world. Be sure to catch Moana on its premiere date of November 23, 2016.

The Virus That Saved Humanity in the 1950s
Hey kids! Who wants to try a little atomic science at home? Developed by Alfred Gilbert, inventor of the Erector Set, this kit included four kinds of real uranium (seen in upper left corner).
Of all the bonehead ideas floated in the 1950s — the curved-barrel machine gun for firing around corners, the vest-pocket ashtray, and bird diapers come to mind — the Gilbert U-238 Atomic Energy Lab for children is a hot contender for top prize. Giving a kid a box of radioactive uranium ore to play with at home — what could possibly go wrong? Incredibly, it was marketed as a safer alternative to the American Basic Science Club's Atomic Energy Lab kit, which let youngsters experiment with both uranium and the far more radioactive radium. Frankly, it's a miracle anyone from that generation survived to adulthood.
Brushing up on fun yet terrifying facts about the 1950s was part of my prep for a recent date night — one of the strategies Rich and I use to keep things fresh after 33 years of marriage and five months of pandemic togetherness. The evening's 1950s theme was inspired by our acquisition of an icon from the era: a metal porch glider. Durable, cheap, and surprisingly comfortable due to their springy construction and smooth rocking motion, gliders became the darling of post-WWII America, and when Rich and I ran across one at a bargain price in a second-hand store, we couldn't resist its retro charm.
In the fifties and sixties, gliders were especially popular as poolside furniture at motels along California's Route 66.
Going old-school on the date night menu, I served onion dip and chips, meatloaf, and corn on the cob. Updating them just enough to keep our arteries from hardening completely, I used yogurt instead of sour cream in the dip, and dug out my Unbelievably Moist Turkey Meatloaf recipe. After those virtuous substitutions, we felt free to slather the corn with butter and sprinkle on plenty of salt.
For entertainment, we listened to Elvis, Billie Holliday, and the Rat Pack as we played the Welcome Back to the 1950s Trivia Quiz, with questions like these:
What was the subject of Nixon's "Checkers" speech?
A. Cocker Spaniel dog
B.The game of politics
C. A favorite pastime
What did the 1954 law Brown v. Board of Education prohibit?
A. School segregation
B. School sports
C. Affirmative action
[Way before your time? Find the answers below.]
The 1950s were famous for "the kind of sci-fi that sticks to your frontal lobe for a lifetime," as critic Richard Nilsen put it.
Nothing says the fifties quite like low-budget sci-fi flicks with mutants covered in jelly, aliens in aluminum foil suits, and flying saucers crafted from actual saucers. I invited Rich to choose one of these classics B movies to watch.
He picked The War of the Worlds, whose special effects — laughably cheesy by modern standards — won an Oscar in 1953 and helped launch the modern sci-fi movie industry. The timing was perfect. The American public, having witnessed Nazism, Fascism, and our own pilots dropping atomic bombs on Japan, were already braced for global catastrophe. A "soul-chilling, hackle-raising" movie about Martians invading Earth resonated with the apocalyptic paranoia of their times — and our own.
In The War of the Worlds, atomic scientist Dr. Clayton Forrester battles Martians and romances Sylvia Van Buren who, despite having a PhD and a professorship, spends most of her time serving coffee and screaming.
"We're living in a dystopian movie," my brother Mike remarked the other day during a discussion of (what else?) the pandemic. "The question is: are we victims or heroes?"
I suspect most of us feel like a bit of both these days, wanting to cower under the covers until all this is over, then forcing ourselves to climb out of bed every morning and do what we can to look after ourselves and one another.
Mike's question made me stop and consider what makes someone a hero. Hollywood likes to represent them as winner-takes-all champions, but in real life, heroism is mostly about showing up. Like the New York nurses who volunteered to go to Houston and are there now, running coronavirus testing clinics. Among them is Kristine Chan, who lost her grandfather to COVID-19. "July 17th was supposed to be my wedding in Cancun, Mexico," she said. "But here I am in Texas."
Being a hero requires sacrifice. This is Cancun, where Kristine Chan had planned to be married this month. Instead, she's in Houston sticking swabs up noses to test for COVID-19.
Grocery store workers are heroes, too, for keeping us all supplied with wine, food, toilet paper, and did I mention wine? And now they have to watch out for whackos like George Falcone of New Jersey. Annoyed when a supermarket employee reminded him to maintain social distance, he (allegedly) moved closer, coughed on her, and said he had coronavirus; he then spent 40 minutes harassing and threatening the staff. Yes, he's facing charges now. But that doesn't make it any easier for workers to go to their jobs, knowing the next whacko might actually have COVID-19.
Among our modern-day heroes, I count everyone who is out peacefully protesting against systemic racism and police brutality. My mother raised me to speak out against injustice, and like most people, I haven't done it as often as I should, but I am doing it now. Mom once worked on a committee with one of her heroes, Coretta Scott King, who said, "It doesn't matter how strong your opinions are. If you don't use your power for positive change, you are, indeed, part of the problem." Or as a popular meme puts it, "If you ever wondered what you would have done during the Holocaust, slavery, or the Civil Rights movement, just look at what you're doing now."
Awarded the Ghandi Peace Prize, Coretta Scott King was an author, activist, fierce champion of African-American rights, and the widow of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Real-life heroes rarely score an easy, comprehensive victory or stand tall in the last scene being cheered by thousands. Most quietly work for the common good, providing others with food, medical care, or the simple comfort of a lighthearted remark that brightens hearts on a dark day.
I have to admit I dozed off halfway through The War of the Worlds, but I woke up in time to see my fellow earthlings trembling in terror as the Martians rampaged across Earth zapping everything to dust with their death rays, unstoppable even by atomic bombs. Then at the eleventh hour (you'll appreciate the irony of this!) the Martians were destroyed by a virus. The alien anatomy had no defense against our infectious germs. The film's protagonists were heroes not because they defeated the Martians, but because they helped hold humanity together until our luck turned.
Science fiction teaches us how to live in a nightmare world, where forces beyond our control are running amok and there's no guarantee that we will win the day. Not everybody can lead a team of scientists cracking the code that will make the world safe for humanity. But we can all make everyday choices based on our better nature and common sense — for instance keeping our kids safer by wearing masks and not giving them radioactive atomic toy sets to play with.
Kids, don't try this at home. The Gilbert U-238 Atomic Energy Lab made Good Housekeeping's list of 20 Most Dangerous Toys of All Time. Fortunately the price tag of $49.50 (equivalent to $530 today) made it a slow seller.
"We are, in many ways, a hopeful species," said sci-fi author Josh Vogt. "Hope gives us strength, and fantasy and science fiction … represent endless possibility and the belief that there is always something wild and wonderful yet to be discovered. Even if there's danger or even death along the way, we have the ability to be brave and persevere in the hope of reaching a better existence." So hang in there, everybody. Be brave, persevere, and when all else fails, watch cheesy sci-fi movies to learn how others managed to survive in scenarios even more hair-raising than our own.

Governor Cuomo announces increased attendance for Islanders playoff games
Tab Bamford
The Islanders will have more fans making noise when they host playoff games.
On Monday, New York State Governor Andrew Cuomo announced the New York Islanders will be able to have more fans in the seats for their 2021 Stanley Cup Playoffs home games.
The Islanders will be able to have up to 25 percent of capacity, an increase from 10 percent that was initially allowed beginning April 26.
Cuomo announced half of the available tickets will go to vaccinated fans, who will be able to sit in sections featuring three feet of social distancing. The other half of tickets will go to unvaccinated fans, who will maintain the current social-distancing parameters of six feet. All fans will be required to wear masks regardless of vaccination status.
The Islanders are currently the fourth seed in the East Division, one point behind the Boston Bruins for third. The Isles have one game remaining in their regular season; Boston has two.
If the Islanders remain the fourth seed, they would face the Pittsburgh Penguins in the first round of the 2021 Stanley Cup Playoffs.

At the opening of the National Congress of the Communist Party of China in October 2017, President Xi Jinping promised "China's open door will not be closed, it will only be opened wider." For global investors, there is no more important manifestation of this opening up than the liberalization of China's financial markets.
While China still has some way to go before its markets are on par with developed world standards, its reform efforts thus far have not gone unnoticed. In June 2017 MSCI announced that it would begin including Chinese A-Shares—companies based in mainland China that trade on the Shanghai and Shenzen stock exchanges—in its benchmark emerging market and global indices beginning later this year.
We've been investing in A-shares since 2012 given our belief that they represent fertile ground for investors looking for uncorrelated alpha in a relatively inefficient market. Now that A-shares are likely to play an increased role in institutional investors' portfolios, we thought the time was right for an in-depth look at the market.
In the second in our series of emerging market briefings, Rui Zhao, portfolio manager for BlackRock's Systematic Active Equity Team, discusses some of the potential benefits and risks of investing in China and explains why it may be a good time for investors looking for growth and diversification to consider Chinese A-shares.
Q: Many investors have exposure to China via their emerging markets or global strategies. What's the case for a standalone allocation?
A: Given the sheer size of the market, the favorable demographics, and the potential for strong economic growth, we think a China-focused strategy is worth considering for investors looking for long-term growth.
Even if investors have China exposure through an EM or global index strategy, or through an active fund that is benchmarked to an index, they're not getting exposure to the full market opportunity. The leading indices have historically only included Hong Kong-listed H-shares, which are heavily concentrated in the financial and technology sectors. Investing in A-shares can help open up a broader opportunity set. For example, we think one of the most exciting stories in China is the rise of the domestic consumer, and A-shares give investors significantly greater exposure to the consumer staples, consumer discretionary and healthcare sectors. See the chart.
Sources: MSCI Research, China Statistical Bureau, China State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, March 2018. Indexes are shown for illustrative purposes only. Indexes are unmanaged. It is not possible to invest in an index.
We've been investing in A-shares since 2012, but the market is still dominated by retail investors. That's going to change, however, as MSCI is about to start including A-shares in its main global indices, although the process will play out over many years.
Q: How does the fact that the A-Share market is dominated by retail investors impact your investment process?
A: It influences our process in some pretty interesting ways. Not only is China a retail-driven market, it's also a country that has really taken to social media. WeChat surpassed 900 million daily active users in the fourth quarter of 2017, according to its parent company Tencent. And retail investors love to use social media to discuss markets and investing.
Social media posts contain a tremendous amount of data about investor sentiment. Of course, that data is unstructured, so we need to use a different set of tools to analyze it. We've developed machine-reading algorithms that can make sense of this very large and unruly body of information and provide us with meaningful insights into what retail investors are thinking and doing.
Q: In markets that are more institutionally driven, retail sentiment and flow are often viewed as contra-indicators. Is that the case in China, or is the reverse true?
A: It's actually not black and white. On an aggregate basis retail investors tend to chase returns, so they are often late to a story. But if you can understand daily sentiment on a relative basis—say, whether investors are more positive on one sector of the market versus another—that can be a powerful leading indicator.
And the process is even more granular than that. For example, an increase in positive sentiment on a stock tends to be a positive indicator, but if we see a massive one-day spike in enthusiasm, that's more of a negative.
I'd also add that as markets and investor behaviors shift, the process for measuring sentiment needs to evolve. We can't just develop a sentiment signal and assume that because it worked today, it's going to work tomorrow. That's why we've invested heavily in machine learning to help us spot patterns and to see how they change over time.
Q: Besides social media posts, are there other data sets that you find particularly useful in China?
A: Company disclosures are another rich source of information. While China has sometimes been portrayed as an opaque market, it actually has some very strict disclosure rules. For example, when fund managers meet with a publicly traded company, the company is required to publically disclose, on the Internet, who attended the meeting and what was discussed.
The goal of the regulation is to make sure that individual investors have access to the same information as professional money managers. But it's also opened up another avenue for our machine-reading algorithms to tap into a potentially valuable data source that doesn't exist in many other markets.
Q: You mentioned up top that MSCI is adding A-shares to its main global indices. How will that affect your process, and how should institutional investors approach the change?
A: For us, as systematic investors, I think one of the most significant consequences will be the increased presence of institutional investors. And not just index investors, but active managers as well. Because if you're an active manager benchmarked to an MSCI index, you're now going to have to consider investing in A-shares as well.
Institutional investors take a very different approach than retail investors—institutions tend to focus more on company fundamentals. We have a whole host of fundamental signals that we use, in addition to some of the sentiment signals that we've been discussing. Ultimately, we want to combine fundamental and sentiment signals in a fairly balanced way, so I think having more fundamental investors in the market will be a positive for our approach.
As far as how investors should treat the change, that, of course, will vary by institution. MSCI is going to start by including companies at just five percent of their market-cap weighting, which translates to an A-share weight of less than one percent in the MSCI EM Index. But we expect that percentage to increase over time, especially if China continues with market liberalization. If companies are eventually included at their full weight, they'll make up a significant portion of the index. If you think that's going to happen, there's a strong case to be made for starting to invest before all of that money comes into the market.
Q: What are some of the risks that investors should consider? Is excess leverage in the financial system a cause for concern?
A: I think the biggest risks are geopolitical. North Korea, in particular, has the potential to be a destabilizing force in the region, and trade tensions with the U.S. are extremely high given the recent announcements on tariffs. These types of risks have historically been difficult to model, but we've found that using text analysis of news wires and brokerage reports can help us get a better handle on the severity of certain geopolitical risks and to adjust our positioning if need be.
The question of leverage is a valid one. China has experienced tremendous growth in leverage since the financial crisis, and we've certainly seen some excesses in the Chinese financial system, but the government is beginning to address them. The China Banking Regulatory Commission (CBRC) launched a campaign against financial leverage in April 2017, and by August Chinese banks' leverage had fallen for the first time in seven years, according to CBRC figures.
We think the deleveraging process still has a long way to go, and in the short term that could lead to some increased volatility and to some air coming out of certain segments of the market. But if you take a long-term view, which we definitely do, then deleveraging looks to be a positive. If China can reduce the amount of leverage in the financial system without throwing a wrench into the engine of economic growth, I think both the financial system and the economy may end up more resilient.
I'd also add that the abolition of term limits and the consolidation of power under President Xi Jinping is something investors need to consider. While it's possible that this could lead to some problems down the road, I think it will allow for some pretty decisive policy change, whether it be deleveraging, cleaning up corruption or enacting supply side reforms that curtail excess production. If these things happen more quickly than markets are expecting, investors need to consider the possibility that, instead of exporting deflation to the rest of the world, China could become a source of inflation. That would be a real game changer.
Q: How can institutional investors incorporate a China strategy into their portfolios?
A: I think China should be viewed first and foremost as a long-term investment strategy. Many of the trends we've been discussing, from market liberalization to deleveraging to index inclusion, are multiyear stories. We believe that they should provide tailwinds for investors, and that China's economic growth will continue to be stronger than most developed, and many emerging, markets.
To realize the potential long-term benefits, investors do need to be comfortable with the possibility of large short-term market swings as China has exhibited higher volatility than many other equity markets. But the flipside to that higher volatility is the fact that Chinese A-shares have displayed low correlations with leading global and regional indices, so adding A-shares to a global portfolio can actually decrease total portfolio volatility. See the chart.

Earlier last week, I mentioned that I didn't care too much about the race between VMware and Microsoft that's getting hot. The heated discussions associated with platform evangelism generally makes my eyes roll, mainly because I am sure of where I am in my virtualization practice.
Just this week, I received a series of questions asking where Microsoft's Hyper-V R2 and SCVMM R2 offering is compared to VMware from a competitive standpoint. My answers were probably not very nice. I'll work on that.
There is one discussion that caught my eye in the blogosphere, however, that starts with this TechNet blog. There, a good discussion has been raised about the host patching burden. Then one of my peers in the community, Maish Saidel-Keesing, responded with a post on his site.
One thing I have learned when making direct comparisons to virtualization platforms is that there is no way to make both sides happy. Jeff's post on TechNet and Maish's independent response point out that how you tell a story can differ greatly on your perspective.
Back to the point on host patching. Privately, I've thought for a long time that the host patching burden would be the biggest curve ball I would ever have if I were a Hyper-V administrator. Sure, migration, scripting and other factors would accommodate the actual practice points of host patching. One thing I like about VMware in this scenario is that the management server is the end-all for the host, meaning that the hosts are disposable in a way. I don't have to worry about domain membership, activation (MAK/KMS), and updates from base product on the redeployment. Therefore in a way, ESX and ESXi are a simpler solution, based on my experience and comfort level.
Host patching and its associated practice can easily fall into a heated religious debate. Share your comments on host patching below.


Not since the Cold War has the Russian military been lavished with so much cash and hardware. With a projected $650 billion allotted for arms spending in the next 10 years (this writer believes the cost will balloon to a few hundred billion more), no expense is being spared equipping the world's fourth largest armed forces with new weaponry.
Other than the highly publicized PAK FA T-50 fifth generation stealth fighter for the air force, every branch of the revitalized Russian military will get boosted with missiles, submarines, helicopters, fighter aircraft, and an enigmatic new main battle tank.
To stretch the historical perspective, the only other time Russia armed itself at such a rapid pace would be during the reign of Czar Peter the Great and the pre-World War 2 Five Year Plans of the Stalin era.
This doesn't mean there aren't any hurdles. The recent MAKS 2011 air show outside Moscow had few takers despite the eye candy present. Also, serious delays have hampered Russian shipyards and other local manufacturers, resulting in awful cost overruns. The situation has become endemic to the point that both President Dmitri Medvedev and Prime Minister Vladimir Putin have publicly intervened, criticizing defense officials and pushing for reforms in Russia's creaky arms procurement process.
The high times aren't confined to the domestic front, however, with Russian arms exports raking in billions each year. Aside from losing the Libyan market ($4 billion), Russian arms are a veritable pillar of the national economy and favored clients such as India, Algeria, and Venezuela (China used to be part of the club) are deluged with sweet deals.
The sweetness is particularly tender in the case of Venezuela where a very surprising transaction has taken place. Last week news broke that Russia is loaning Venezuela $4 billion dollars for future arms purchases that include main battle tanks, air defence systems, and fighter jets. The money hasn't been transferred yet and a Venezuelan official—Minister of Finance and Planning Jorge Giordani—is due to visit Russia to iron out the details.

Cynthia Carmen Burbridge-Bishop, més coneguda com a Cindy Bishop o com a Sirinya Winsiri (en ) (Bangkok, 30 de desembre de 1978) és una model, actriu i personalitat tailandesa.

A més de guanyar el concurs Miss Thailand World el 1996 es va fer famosa sobretot per la seva participació com a animadora i jutge del programa Asia's Next Top Model i pel fet de ser una de les poques tailandeses amb ulls blaus.

Vida personal
Bishop va néixer a Bangkok i va créixer a Pattaya. Té 1/8 d'origen tailandès, William Burbridge, el seu pare, que és americà i la seva mare, Patricia, és mig anglesa, una quarta part índia i una quarta part tailandesa. Bishop va assistir a l'Escola Internacional Ruamrudee de Bangkok i es va graduar en Relacions Públiques a la Universitat de Bangkok.

El 2005 es va casar amb Byron Bishop, un model mig americà i mig japonès i va tenir dos fills, Leila Carmen i Aiden.

Carrera
Bishop va començar a bussejar a l'edat de 5 anys i va aconseguir el seu primer contracte de modelatge per a un rodatge comercial submarí per a una botiga d'equips de busseig.

El 1996, Bishop va guanyar el concurs Miss Thailand World i va representar Tailàndia al concurs Miss World a Bangalore, Índia, on va quedar sense lloc i no va passar a les semifinals.

Com a supermodel amb seu a Tailàndia, Cindy ha estat un element bàsic d'Àsia, que té portades de títols com Image, Numéro i Vogue, a més d'haver treballat per a algunes cases de moda com Céline, Chanel i Gucci.

Adoption Of Cloud Problematic In Africa; Experts Say 'Try It Out'
Written by Dana Sanchez
Experts say issues like security, cost of investment and control over data have hampered Africa's uptake of cloud solutions, even as the same experts urge the market to "try it out," according to a report in ITNewsAfrica.
There is consensus that applying cloud technology (large numbers of computers connected through a real-time communication network, typically the Internet) will benefit the continent, speakers said Thursday at an ITNewsAfrica event in Johannesburg. The topic was "Real-World Cloud Adoption."
Africa is the ideal platform for cloud adoption because there is a lot less legacy in place, said Avi Mistry with Intel Corp., a U.S.-based multinational semiconductor chip maker considered world's largest and highest valued.
"Try it out," Mistry said. "Try it in a non-mission critical production-type environment, in those grudge purchase areas like disaster recovery, like test and development. You will soon realize that the cash injection to your budget becomes so much more compelling to then have freedom to try other things. It is about putting money back into your budget, rather than taking out constantly on simple operations. So it is about working strategically.
"And Africa, being green fields in many regards, does not have the baggage of having to pay off those investments," Mistry added. "So, the ability to quickly jump onto agile, elastic and scalable solutions is very easy and compelling. Africa can play catch-up and, of course, exceed a lot quicker."
Mobile apps, economic aid and tech development ecosystems will drive cloud in Africa, said Ian Duvenage with Frost & Sullivan Africa, in his presentation entitled "Africa, adopting cloud on its own terms." The U.S.-based company provides market research and analysis, growth strategy consulting and corporate training around the world.
"In Africa…it is cheaper to move data to centers in Europe via undersea cables, than it is to move it a couple blocks down the road," Duvenage said. "Technology has been on the radar for African governments and cloud is a high priority … there are quite a few governments that will recognize the value the technology brings to countries and to the way they function. There is a nice equation that goes something along the lines of for every tentative increase in connectivity, there is an increase in productivity. Cloud makes it so much easier to get services up and running."
Advantages associated with cloud solution adoption include flexibility, productivity, agility, capacity and resource capability, as well as opportunities to extend the use of bandwidth, the report said.
However, realizing these advantages and positioning a business to the point of being ready to take on the cloud require a change in mindset, said Grant Morgan, general manager of cloud for Dimension Data Middle East & Africa. Dimension Data is a South Africa-based ICT services company that has gone global.
"I think South Africa has been pretty reserved when it comes to cloud," Morgan said. "I think what has been encouraging for us is that over the last six months adoption has really started to take off."
Morgan said businesses in Africa need to ask questions such as, "What happens if I had infinite computing resources tomorrow and I could use it for one hour?" or "If I had a huge amount of bandwidth available to me, what could I do?"
Customers who make use of cloud can grow their businesses quickly, he said.


On Thursday, at the height of his goodwill tour of Israel and environs, President Obama held a press conference in Ramallah with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas. The event was noted by all major media. But there was a difference in the coverage.
NBC Nightly News, for example, dutifully reported the good (Abbas warmly greeted Obama when he stepped off the helicopter) and the bad (crowds in the streets were restive, chanting, "Obama, go away. We don't want you here.") But the network went out of its way to avoid the "ugly," as did ABC, CBS, The New York Times, and other elite media.
All of them tightly cropped their stills and videos of the stage at the Muqata Presidential Compound, where the presser was held. The purpose was not just to focus on Obama's handsome mug but to omit another face looming overhead — that of former PLO leader and "father of modern terrorism" Yasser Arafat.
[U]nder Arafat's direct or indirect command — including Fatah, Black September, Tanzim and Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigade — were responsible for hundreds of bombings, hijackings, assassinations and other attacks, including the 1972 murder of 11 of Israel's Olympic athletes in Munich, the 1973 murder of the American ambassador to Sudan, Cleo Noel, and the 1985 hijacking of the Achille Lauro cruiseship (resulting in the murder of wheelchair-bound Leon Klinghoffer).
But one wonders if Obama's action wasn't deliberate. How far removed is he ideologically from former President Jimmy Carter, who on a 2008 visit to the Middle East laid a wreath on Arafat's grave, describing him as a "crusader for just causes"?

Jenkins Building
Common Name Jenkins Building
Address 802 N. Monroe See Map
Architect / Builder Albert Held
Neighborhood Riverside
Completed in 1913, the red brick Jenkins Building rises three stories on the northeast corner of Monroe Street and Broadway Avenue, just northwest of the downtown Spokane business district. It was designed by architect Albert Held and retains the distinctive brick and "terra cotta" façade as it did when constructed. The property's period of significance is from 1913 to 1962 when the southwest corner and south elevation were modernized for Seattle First National Bank – an addition including a drive-through window was added at the same time. The Jenkins Building is eligible under Category A as one of Spokane's prominent apartment buildings built during one of the most significant periods in the city's growth. The city's population and building activity, strong through the 1910s, significantly declined from the upward trajectory it had experienced for nearly three decades. Within this period of growth, the building was a response to the completion of the current Monroe Street Bridge, dedicated in November 1911, and the predicted "boom" of new construction along the Monroe Street corridor on the north bank of the Spokane River. Designed by Albert Held, the Jenkins Building also meets the characteristics of the theme and context established in the National Register Nomination "Apartment Buildings by Albert Held Thematic Group," and is one of the last buildings in Spokane designed by Held. The building is also eligible under Category B because of its association with Colonel D. P. Jenkins. He is the original owner and his name graces the frieze over the main entry. Jenkins was a major figure in the development of Spokane and he is remembered as one of Spokane's greatest benefactors. Finally, the Jenkins Building is eligible under Category C, as a landmark on Spokane's near north side designed by master architect Albert Held. The Jenkins Building displays the classical elements characteristic of the sophisticated design of an accomplished architect.
