Paul Young (Mánchester, Inglaterra, 17 de junio de 1947  - Altrincham, Inglaterra, 17 de julio de 2000) fue un cantante y percusionista que trabajó con varias exitosas bandas de la escena musical inglesa de los años 70 y 80. Entre las más reconocidas se encuentran Sad Café y Mike and the Mechanics. Fue cariñosamente apodado 'Youngly' por sus compañeros de Mike and the Mechanics Mike Rutherford y Paul Carrack (para evitar la confusión con el propio Carrack y con otro Paul Young, un conocido solista inglés de soul).

Carrera
Young comenzó a tocar con la banda de Mánchester Toggery Five, la que integraban además los futuros miembros de Jethro Tull, Mick Abrahams y Clive Bunker. En 1973, formó Paradox, una banda de corta duración que incluía en el bajo a Martin Hannett, futuro productor de muchas bandas new wave de Mánchester (entre ellas Joy Division). En 1976 Young e Ian Wilson formaron una nueva banda llamada Sad Café, resultado de una alianza con integrantes de otra banda de Mánchester llamada Mandalaband. Durante su carrera grabaron siete álbumes, antes de separarse en 1981.

Cuando en 1985 el fundador de Genesis, Mike Rutherford, decidió crear su propia banda contactó a Paul Young para que se integrara y compartiera voces con Paul Carrack. La banda fue bautizada Mike and the Mechanics y ese mismo año lanzaron su primer álbum de nombre homónimo, el que alcanzó un éxito inmediato. Paralelamente, en 1986, P. Young refundó Sad Café como un dúo junto a Ian Wilson, realizando los álbumes "Politics of Existance" (1986) y "Whatever It Takes" (1989).

Con Mike and the Mechanics Paul alcanzó la fama al interpretar temas que alcanzaron altos puestos en las listas de éxitos mundiales como "All I Need Is a Miracle", "Taken In", "Par Avión" y "Words Of Mouth", entre otras. Su carrera con el grupo (con el que llegó a grabar seis álbumes) se prolongó exitosamente.

Muerte
Falleció el 17 de julio de 2000 de un ataque al corazón en su casa de Altrincham, en el condado de Cheshire (noroeste de Inglaterra). Su cuerpo fue cremado el día siguiente.

Mike Rutherford, compañero de la banda, confesó: "Todos estamos absolutamente extrañados y destrozados por la inesperada muerte de Paul, a los 53 años de edad. Tenía una voz fantástica, de las mejores del rock dentro de su generación y, además de su talento musical, poseía un contagioso entusiasmo para los negocios, a Paul le encantaba actuar. Lo hacía de una manera completamente natural. Todos pensamos que seguiría cantando dentro de cincuenta años. Es una pérdida terrible".

En 2011, once años después de su muerte se lanzó un álbum póstumo llamado Chronicles, un recopilatorio con material sin terminar en su estudio casero.

Facebook's Zuckerberg to Give $100 Million to Newark Schools
Richard Perez-Pena|The New York Times
Published 9:53 AM ET Thu, 23 Sept 2010 The New York Times
Mark Zuckerberg, chief executive and a founder of Facebook, has agreed to donate $100 million to improve the long-troubled public schools in Newark, and Gov. Chris Christie will cede some control of the state-run system to Mayor Cory A. Booker in conjunction with the huge gift, officials said Wednesday.
The three men plan to announce the arrangement on Friday on the "Oprah Winfrey Show."
The changes would not formally relax the legal power the state seized in 1995, when it declared Newark's schools a failure and took control of the system, replacing the elected school board with a mostly toothless advisory board. Rather, Mr. Christie plans to give the mayor a major role in choosing a new superintendent and redesigning the system, but to retain the right to take control back.
For now, at least, the arrangement tightens an already friendly relationship between the governor, a Republican, and the mayor, a Democrat who was once seen as a likely challenger for the State House in 2013. It also promises to be a rare happy moment in a state troubled by budget crises, scandals, political infighting and, most recently, the loss of a $400 million federal education grant because of a clerical error.
Mr. Zuckerberg, 26, who grew up in Westchester County and now lives in California, has no particular connection to Newark. But in July, he and Mr. Booker met at a conference and began a continuing conversation about the mayor's plans for the city, according to people familiar with their relationship.
Mr. Booker, an advocate of school choice, has been traveling the country, meeting business leaders and celebrities, proselytizing and raising money for Newark. Ms. Winfrey has been one of his biggest supporters, and has given millions of dollars to schools and other organizations in Newark over the last few years.
The $100 million for Newark is the initial gift to start a foundation for education financed by Mr. Zuckerberg. This would be by far the largest publicly known gift by Mr. Zuckerberg, whose fortune Forbes magazine estimated last year at $2 billion.
Mr. Booker, Mr. Christie and Mr. Zuckerberg all declined to be interviewed on Wednesday. The officials who spoke about the plan did so on the condition of anonymity because it was two days before the scheduled announcement.
The gift is many times larger than any the system has received, officials said — an extraordinary sum not only for a district with an $800 million annual operating budget, but also for any publicly financed government agency. It is not yet clear how the money would be used, or over what period.
Despite 15 years of state control, the Newark schools have test scores and graduation rates that are among the lowest in New Jersey.
Mr. Christie has said that he generally does not approve of state takeovers of local agencies, and he supported the elimination of state oversight of Camden early this year. But he had given no sign of backing away from control of the schools in Newark.
Less than a month ago, the governor informed the city's schools superintendent, Clifford B. Janey, that he would not be rehired, and that the state was looking for a successor. There has been speculation in Trenton about the possibility of hiring Michelle A. Rhee, the hard-charging schools chief in Washington, whose political patron, Mayor Adrian M. Fenty, recently lost his bid for re-election.
Officials said Mr. Christie planned to announce that he and Mr. Booker would jointly select a new superintendent, a decision the governor has the power to make on his own. And they said he would instruct the mayor to come up with a reform plan for the system: in effect, asking Mr. Booker to redesign it.
"We can't speculate too much at this point about what the specifics would be," a person briefed on the plans said.
But on issues like expansion of charter schools, rigorous testing and rewarding teachers and administrators whose students succeed, this person said, "their vision is very much in step."
Under Mr. Christie, the state has rewarded schools that made aggressive changes, like awarding grants to a group of Newark high schools that replaced half their staffs.
The announcements could win points for Mr. Christie with local officials and school advocates who have chafed under state control, and take away some of the sting of his cuts to state aid for schools. It also ties him more closely to a popular Democrat in a state that usually favors Democrats. But the move could damage his alliance with the mayor if, in the end, their visions do not match.
It also puts Mr. Booker in a situation not occupied by his predecessors, who had little overt influence over the schools. The mayor has said many times that he wants the state to cede control, but critics have charged that he did little to make that happen. If his reform plan fails to transform the system, it could deal a blow to his reputation.

Q: Problem with including .png image in Latex (overleaf): Picture not formated correctly I have a question regarding the \includegraphics command. I have used it before, also with ".png" pictures and I have not had any problems yet (I am pretty new to Latex though). However, I just tried to include a picture in my document and the result looks like this (the picture is cut off at about half of the picture, and right aligned, which is both not intended; in addition it shows part of the filename):

Here is the code I am using. I also tried only \includegraphics, \includegraphics[width=\textwidth] etc. already:
\begin{figure}
    \centering
    \includegraphics[scale=0.4]{Statistics II/Instrumentv.png}
    \caption{Caption}
    \label{fig:my_label}
\end{figure}

And here the code immediately before the figure, in case this is relevant:
\begin{enumerate}
    \item $D = \gamma_0 + \gamma_1 Z + v$
    \begin{enumerate}
        \item Regression of D on Z, "treatment assignment model"
    \end{enumerate}
    \item $\hat{D} = \gamma_0 + \gamma_1 Z$
    \item $Y = \beta_0 + \beta^{2SLS} \hat{D} + e$
    \begin{enumerate}
        \item 2SLS only retains variation of D which is caused by Z
    \end{enumerate}
\end{enumerate}

I googled quite extensively now and I just cannot get to the bottom of the problem here. Thank you in advance for any help!

PUERTO RICO —
When a national disaster strikes, the Federal Emergency Management Agency looks to the private sector to pitch in and lend a hand.
Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon is answering that call, sending one of its emergency management specialists to Puerto Rico following Hurricane Maria's destruction.
With most airlines still only flying one flight a day to the island, Wesley Miller had to wait for several days in Atlanta to finally reach his destination.
A Baptist church in San Juan is serving as a shelter and staging area for the volunteer work force.
"At this point, we have only seen this little corner of San Juan, and it hasn't been affected, but we know that there are other dramatically affected areas of the country that we need to get to," Miller said.
Miller will be assigned Friday and deployed to areas of the island where he may be of help.
"Although we came down with a certain skill set that we have developed over the years, once you get down here, even if you were slated as a government liaison, you may be working in a shelter, setting up cots or doing food distribution," Miller said.

Q: VBA Run-Time Error 438 I have been working on a small macro but have run into an error.
The function of the macro is as follows: There is a list of stocks in an existing sheet. The macro goes into the folders and opens a spreadsheet where the recommendations are stored. It then goes back to the original sheet, takes each stock code and then goes into the recommendations sheet to see if there is a corresponding stock and what its recommendation is.
The code works fine, however I am now getting a VBA run-time error 438 when I am trying to get the macro to switch which workbook it needs to work on.
The error occurs on the lines application.wb2.activate and then lower down again with application.wb2.activate and application.wb.activate
When I replace wb and wb2 with the full directory, i.e. H:\A\AA\recommendations.xlsx and H:\A\AA\november 2017.xlsm, it works fine.
Would appreciate any help here! Thanks!

A: You seem to be confusing the Workbook.Activate and Application.Activate¹ methods.
Activate is a direct method of the Workbook object. If you have correctly assigned (e.g. Set) an object-level variable to the Workbook object, you should be able to call the Activate method directly.
Solution: drop the Application and simply Activate the open workbook from the assigned object variable.

wb.Activate

For all intents and purposes, activating the workbooks as you have done is not necessary and is not the more efficient code. See How to avoid using Select in Excel VBA for more information.

You have desktop gamers and console gamers. Many desktop gamers have watched down on console gamers for years. By bad conversions and developers which have to create a game for 2 different target groups, there was regular hate and envy between the gamers using a mouse for the pc and gamers using a controller for the television. A comparing phenomenon servicenow in Virtual Reality. The lovers of "real' VR like the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive watch down on the mobile VR devices like Gear VR and the Google Cardboard. Some critics claim that even the VR experience of a mobile solution the technologie been put in a bad daylight. When we look at the sales figures, it is clear that there is one winner; Gear VR.
The modest Gear VR of Samsung is more often been over the counter, than all other VR headsets combined. Google Cardboard holders hasn't been count in. We watch at the Oculus Rift, HTC VIVE, Playstation VR and the Google Daydream. Cardboard isn't a specific VR system, but a function for android (and in less options for apple).
In 2016 there has been sold a total of 6,3 million headset whereof 4,51 million of Samsung Gear VR copies. For the sake of clarity, for the other devices it concerns estimates. Samsung is the only provider who announced their sales figure. It is notable that the Oculus Rift, the VR headset that put this new fase of VR to the start, with 240.000 pieces at the bottom of the top 5 stands. Even the Daydream which in the last kwart of 2016 has been introduced; 20.000 more pieces have shipped.
Although the PS VR his 750.000 copies far below the 4.51 million headsets of Gear, Sony can not complain with the success of the PSVR. Especially when you realise you'll need a ps4 to make use of the headset. The price for a PSVR starts with €399,- while you can pay a Gear VR for €99,-.
The Gear VR has been used several times to stimulate the sale of the luxury Samsung smartphones. It isn't clear if the promotion copies are counted in the total sales figure. The Gear VR is a luxury holder for another Samsung product, a accessoire. This can also be said about the other headsets, it is increasingly peripheral devices. It isn't camparable with the Hololens, where a full windows 10 desktop is hidden in. Although you will pay like 3000 dollars.
The process power of a smartphones is much lower than a desktop. In this way the images can't be as realistic shown like a desktop headset.
Smartphone VR doesn't have positional tracking. You can watch in 360 degrees but you can't move. This is the primary reasons why this isn't 'real' VR.
You will always need a smartphone. You can not use the regular smartphone functies while being in VR . A Gear VR including a smartphone exclusive use for VR, makes the complete set very expensive.
The primary reason of the big success of the Samsung Gear VR will be the sharp prices and the popularity of the device. Samsung needed this success after the exploding batteries of the phones.
The first big hit for the Gear VR was Gunjack. This action game is based on the universe of EVE; Online but with more action and less strategie. The Graphics are very impressive for a mobile game.
Although every VR, AR and MR system wanted to launch this game, it was the Gear VR who got the scoop. The mobile minecraft version was changed for the use in virtual reality with good results.
It is notable that there are allot of zombie shooters for the Gear VR, Drop Dead is by far the best in their genre. Excellent design, nice cartoon graphics and a professional finish makes Drop Dead an excellent example for mobile VR gaming.
Although this game looks allot like Gunjack, it is a different game. In End space you can fly around for free, this is not possible for Gunjack. End space does have notable good graphics and sound.
This turned based strategy card game is available for both Gear VR as the Oculus rift. You can play this game alone or online against friends. Although the graphics of the Gear VR are a little less impressive the game play keeps in tact.
These are some examples of the Gear VR games that are worthy to play. Besides games and video apps you will see some experiments lik 'Face Your Fears'in which you will be confronted with your biggest fears.
The Gear VR is a accessory for several Samsung devices. When you feature a suitable devices it is worthy to buy a Gear VR. Just with the free apps you can play for hours. You can also rent a Gear VR include a Samsung smartphone. You can test the Gear VR so you know if it is something for you. The gear VR is also suitable for events and party's.

How To Improve Mental Health Services In Malawi

Mental Health In Malawi
There are reports that mental illnesses are common and that more than 25% of people globally suffer from mental disorder in their lifetime. The treatment gap recorded between poor and rich countries is estimated to be between 30-50% in developed countries and 7685% in developing countries. The World Health Organization (WHO) reports that higher income countries have more facilities and higher utilization rates than low and middle income countries (LMIC).
The global median of mental health facilities per 100,000 population is reported at 0.61 outpatient facilities, 0.05 day treatment facilities, 0.01 community residential facilities, and 0.04 mental hospitals. In Malawi, there are many people suffering from mental health conditions but have no access to care due to several reasons including: centralization of mental health services and the disintegration into primary healthcare; there are very few mental health professionals in the country and the general health care workers have no competency for handling mental health conditions; inadequate resources are allocated to mental health care; and high levels of societal stigma towards people suffering from mental health issues. Below we will list some burdens to Mental Health in Malawi and the right solutions.
Shortage of Mental Health Personnel
Low capacity of primary health care workers
Who to contact if you need Mental Health Support In Malawi
St John of God Mental Hospital in Lilongwe(Area 43)
St John of God Mental Hospital in Mzuzu
Zomba Mental Hospital
Contact Grace Khonje
Malawi's public health system follows a three-tiered system of medical facilities:
Urban center hospitals and other specialized hospitals (tertiary)
District hospitals (secondary)
Health posts, health centers and community and rural hospitals (primary).
However, the health budget prioritizes allocating resources to the top tier of health services; other tiers are often without supplies – particularly primary care facilities. Furthermore, there are less than 100 registered doctors and 3000 nurses to service all three tiers of the health system, and there are no doctors and few nurses at the district tier.
Many of the health workers in Malawi are not equipped them with necessary knowledge and skills as well as resources, to aid to presentation of correct diagnosis to in turn free up not only financial resources, but also staff time. There is need to among other things; support in-service training, support the human resource department for health and specific training in mental health services integration and encourage mentorship and strengthen supervision.
The above stated are among the top ranking burdens to mental health in Malawi. The understanding of MHL has expanded in recent years from its original definition of "knowledge and beliefs about mental disorders which aid their recognition, management and prevention" to a more comprehensive framework, grounded in the World Health Organization approach to health literacy, to encompass:
Enhancing capacity to obtain and maintain good mental health.
Enhancing understanding of mental disorders and their treatments.
Decreasing stigma related to mental illness.
Enhancing help-seeking efficacy.
Malawi records of an estimated 2000 suicides each year, the lifetime risk of schizophrenia and bipolar illness in Malawi is around 1% and in 2002 and estimations made by WHO that depression was the 4th leading cause of disability in Malawi coming after HIV. Malawi's the lack of appropriately trained health providers in community health settings makes access to effective mental health care for young people with Depression challenging.
Depression and anxiety affecting up to 30% of mothers bringing their infants to a child health clinic. The children of these women who are likely to have impaired growth and statically up to 28% of patients attending primary care have a common mental health problem with most of them being erroneously diagnosed as malaria and musculoskeletal pains. In addition, HIV/AIDS is associated with a range of mental health problems including dementia, organic psychosis, depression and substance misuse. Depression, that has been left untreated negatively impacting quality of life and future vocational achievement significantly, leading to increased morbidity, contributing to early mortality, and recognition as a potential risk factor for other illnesses.
The traditional picture of mental illness is the very disturbed, possibly aggressive, half-naked man uprooting crops, burning houses, or walking down the white line on the road to Blantyre. Such a person would be regarded with fear and either be avoided at all costs, or strenuously restrained and handed over to the police. Yet there have always been other presentations of mental disorder – the silent, withdrawn individual, the child running off into the bush, the adolescent who almost unnoticed begins to lose concentration and fail at his studies. Most people will also recognize mental handicap and make allowances for those who cannot learn as quickly as their normal peers.
Several studies note that traditional care providers are preferred over "orthodox" clinics, often due to cultural influences and a lack of awareness of psychiatric services. Strategies to improve public knowledge and attitudes about mental health and illness, Just as people have always recognized the most mentally disturbed in the community, so traditional treatments have been available as long as there have been traditional healers.
Even those people whose mental disorder present with physical symptoms anxiety and depression, for example: not only need therapy but also a ready and willing health personal during any primary health care service. The explanation for illness in the traditional healer's approach has influenced the community behavior, attitude and stigma which affects the lives of those with a mental disability today as it has always done. So from the beginning there has been a limited recognition of mental disorder and an attempt by the community to deal with it.
Therefore, Malawi's Mental Health facilities such as Zomba Central Hospital, Kamuzu Central Hospital and Mzuzu Central Hospital should be staffed with adequate mental health personnel and communities should be sensitized on Mental Health Education and discouraged from seeking help from traditional healers and Dr. Google.
NOTE: Alcohol abuse, recreational drug abuse, are also a big reason why Malawi has had an increase each year for the past 5 years in mental health patients. We will have a special article that covers exclusively how mental illness and alcohol/drug abuse are directly related especially here in Malawi.

US MSC ship Medgar Evers' crew completes afloat team tailored training
The training drills aimed to enhance damage control responses of T-AKE 13 crew members.

Crew members aboard the US Navy's Lewis and Clark-class dry cargo ammunition vessel USNS Medgar Evers (T-AKE 13) have completed afloat team tailored training.
The dry cargo ammunition ship is operated by the US Navy's Military Sealift Command (MSC).
The training involved a series of exercises along with practical and scenario-driven damage control events.
It included main space fire drills, abandon ship drills and chemical, biological and radiological defence (CBRD) classes.
The training exercise aimed to enhance the damage control responses of the crew members.
Medgar Evers ship master captain Zachary Daniels said: "The goal is to feel confident and comfortable with all the different damage control scenarios we may come across.
"We want to know whatever emergency comes up, whether it's DC, CBRD, firefighting or any other type of damage control scenario we're able to respond appropriately."
MSC's afloat training team comprised of former and current Civil Service Mariners (CIVMARs).
The CIVMARs are aware of the shipboard operations and how crucial MSC is for maintaining operability across a variety of military spectrum.
MSC afloat training team instructor Mario Majors said: "When they're underway on these ships and conducting operations, they're working for the Department of the Navy.
"They're supporting the operating fleet, and they provide a vital service. If they become mission ineffective, the fleet will not be able to carry out their mission.
"They need to be able to keep the ship afloat so the fleet can carry out its mission."
The Lewis and Clark-class ship Medgar Evers has already completed its shipyard availability for overhaul/dry-docking, earlier this year.
The vessel has recently commenced its shipboard qualification trials (SQTs) to prepare for the future deployments.

Have you always been interested in soccer? If the answer is yes, then you know that you sometimes need the right game to help you simulate what your favorite players are doing. Foosball (also known as table football or table soccer) loosely emulates soccer. A lot of people have compared it to soccer because of the uniform designs of the players that are on the foosball table. Foosball is a table game, which means that it is very different from soccer, which is played in a field.
The foosball table is one of the best fixtures that you can have at home. The game is for 2-4 players. Playing this can be fun and intense, especially if you are very competitive. Your main goal right now is to find the right foosball table that will give you the best value for your money.
Did you know that there are professional foosball players? Some are actually so good at it that they have started playing in professional competitions. You can still have a lot of fun even if you are just watching the game, or playing for fun.
1 KICK Foosball Table Legend, 55 In The figures on this foosball table are not only counter-balanced but are also in uniform.
You have an idea about the foosball table that you want to get but you do not want to make hasty decisions. You need to become more familiar with the various features that you can expect a foosball table to have. There are features that will vary from one foosball table to another. Remember to consider what is most important to you in a foosball table.
Size – Do you want to have a full-size table that will allow you and your friends to have a lot of space while playing? The standard size is 56 inches long and 30 inches wide. Do not choose a table that is too narrow. Some say that the most comfortable table is the one that is about 7 feet by 8 feet.
Goalies – Different foosball tables will also come in varying goalie configurations. Take a look at the different foosball tables that are available. Some of them only have one goalie. There are others that have three goalies. Whichever you choose depends on your preference. A foosball game with three goalies is usually more fast-paced compared to a foosball table with one goalie. You can consider this detail to decide on the table that you want to buy.
Counter-Weighted Men – You might not think that this is important in the beginning, but the more that you play foosball, the more that you will realize why professionals love using this feature. The figures will have the ability to stay in the position where you left them so there is no need to worry that they are going to get in your way when you play. You will probably play better game if you choose a table with weighted figures.
Playing Rods – Every table has playing rods, but you might not think what they are made of is important. Consider choosing rods that are made of steel. If you choose foosball tables that are not made with steel rods, you are going to have a hard time controlling what your next actions are going to be. Do remember that not all steel rods are the same. The best, high-priced tables are usually made with hollow rods. These rods are strong and will help players perform quick maneuvers. Steel rods that are not hollow are still good, but they are heavier and force you to slow down a bit.
Materials Used for Construction of Foosball Tables – The materials of the foosball table will play a huge role in how long the foosball table lasts. Most foosball tables are made of the following materials: Particle board, composite, and solid wood. The best foosball tables are made of solid wood, but this is material is not recommended for those who live in humid places. If you are afraid of humidity causing havoc to your foosball table, composite is the best option.

This cultural facility forms part of a broader urban development plan in the town of Dinard. The coastal town in the north of Brittany lies opposite Saint-Malo. This essential project takes shape on the site of Dinard's former train station.
The building has a triangular base and reaches out to meet the public space thanks to the emergence of two high walls, fracturing the building where the angle is most open and inviting people to pass inside. This entrance, seen as two arms extended towards the outside, makes us progressively appreciate the transition between the street and the interior. In the prolongation of these two walls, the roof is pierced by a linear skylight, which crosses the building along its whole length. This vast window onto the sky primarily adds light to the upstairs reading areas. The façades are rhythmed by opaque or transparent glass panels that reflect the environment in light and peaceful hues. The interiors, covered in wood and divided by transparent glass elements, are easily accessible, comfortable, and conducive to calm and concentration. A thin metal roof evoking the flight of a bird covers the upper-level terraces and can also accommodate the activity of readers, researchers, and workers.

Former Fox News anchor Shep Smith on ex-colleagues: 'I don't know how some people sleep at night'
The U.S. used to rule the women's sports landscape, but with momentum stalled the rest of the world is catching up
By Jane McManus
LONDON — Last month the SheBelieves Cup invitational women's soccer tournament was held for the fourth time. The United States, which hosts the event, had won two out of the last three cups.
This year, it was all England.

Can you hear that? It's the sound of the rest of the world catching up with the U.S. when it comes to women's sports. The charge is being led here in the United Kingdom, where successful national teams in soccer, rugby and netball have galvanized national interest. As a result the media landscape here, which was characterized by one Brit as "lads, lads, lads," is shifting to cover the women's game.
Last week The Telegraph hired veteran sports writer Anna Kessel to edit a new initiative on women's sports. Several U.K. sports women, including tennis's Judy Murray, will be contributors. And the timing couldn't be better, with the Women's World Cup on the horizon in France this June for a surging national team.
Does Kessel see a changing landscape?

"I do now," Kessel said. "We've got a whole team of writers and a deputy editor dedicated to covering women's sport. There's a lot of budget and resource going into it so that's great. But do I see other papers doing that? Not even close."
Like the U.S., women are a minority of the bylines and women's sports coverage is spotty, to be kind. In print coverage, the cursory look at newspaper bylines over the 18 months I lived in London rarely yielded more than one woman writing.
On the broadcast side however, things couldn't be more different. The BBC has women's programming that includes a half-hour program devoted to women's soccer. Sky Sports has a women's sports show as well, and has put a full-court press on netball coverage. (Netball is akin to basketball, and is played by many former British commonwealth nations.)
The BBC, which is partially publicly-funded and thus has a mandate to provide programming that contributes to the community, will launch a new slate of programming in May that furthers women's sports coverage.
"Over the last three years the BBC and Sky Sports have made a concerted effort to improve coverage of women's sport," said Kate Dale, the lead campaigner for This Girl Can, a Sport England initiative to get more women and girls active. "And Barclay's announcement of support for the women's football league was exciting."

Barclay's will be the FA Women's Super League's title sponsor starting next year and the three-year deal is worth £10 million according to The Guardian. The BBC has already announced it will livestream significantly more WSL coverage. Right now, Manchester City, Arsenal and Chelsea are top three in the standings.
"They wouldn't be doing this if they didn't think it was a source of revenue or a point of difference," Dale said. "I've been doing this for a long time and we're always asking 'Is this a tipping point, is this a tipping point?' But this year feels like it could genuinely be a tipping point."
Dale and the Women's Sport Trust here have also campaigned for women to buy match tickets, saying that watching women's sports is an easy act of feminism. Historically, women's league soccer has struggled to find the same attendance that Women's World Cup games enjoy.

The United States has had a head start on the U.K. and other Western European nations thanks to the passage of Title IX in 1972. It meant that the number of girls playing sports started to rise and, given the larger population in the U.S. and investment in training women for team sports, we've fielded dominant teams in soccer, basketball, gymnastics, softball and other sports.
But with other nations making investments in their teams and the cultural normalization of women playing sports, that advantage won't last forever. The U.S. women's national team is on top of the rankings in FIFA's standings, but Germany, France and England aren't far behind.

The U.S. had a tremendous jump start, but seems to have taken it for granted. Look no further than USWNT jerseys, it wasn't until this year that there was a custom kit for fans, and that kit is sold out on the web site and on back order. So here we are just two months away from the start of the Women's World Cup and the fans have demanded well more jerseys than anticipated. How many dollars are left on the table, and won't be counted toward the value of the American women's game?
This is a championship team, consistently competitive on the world stage, that is literally suing the national governing body of soccer for equity in the game. And without the American team increasing international interest in women's soccer, and providing a blueprint, perhaps the rest of the world wouldn't make the investment to catch up.
Once, the U.S. could count on dominating in women's sports, but that is no longer something to take for granted. The U.K. and other nations are starting to see women's sports as a point of pride, and it's moving those sports onto a larger platform.
"I want little girls who are talented and good and interested in sport to get all the rewards that the men do," Dale said. "It's about gender equality."

Sir Simon Rattle takes a journey of discovery around Bruckner's magnificent 'Romantic' symphony – including music that has never been performed by a professional orchestra in the UK.
The air shimmers and glows, and somewhere in the mists, a solitary horn gives a lonely call. The stuff of fairytales? The truth is, it's impossible to write about Bruckner's majestic Fourth Symphony without letting the imagination soar; he never wrote anything more colourful, or more poetic. In Germany they call it the 'Romantic' symphony, and it's easy to hear why.
Sir Simon Rattle loves this symphony, and he's aware, too, that Bruckner's inspiration burned so brightly that he ended up with more ideas than he could actually use. 'There is much wonderful music which remains almost entirely unplayed' he says, and today he steps inside Bruckner's workshop to explore some of the music that didn't make the final cut. Then he conducts the entire symphony in all its splendour: music that never gets any less stirring, and has never sounded so fresh.

Gran Canaria Weather in January & What Temperatures To Expect?
Gran Canaria is a popular destination in January, as it is one of the warmest places in Europe for winter sun, along with the other Canary Islands in the archipelago. Actually, we prefer Gran Canaria and Tenerife during the winter season, especially the southern regions, where it's also the sunniest and driest part of each island.
Since the weather is warm and pleasant in Gran Canaria in January, the island gets busy at this time of year with tourists who come here to escape the hard winter back home. High demand also means higher prices, so make sure to book your flights and hotels well in advance if you want to get a good deal. The prices tend to go skyrocket around the holidays, so after Christmas and New Year's are gone, you might have a chance to get a nice deal for January.
The temperatures during the day in January are between 20°C and 23°C, which means that when the sun is out you can sunbathe comfortably and work on your tan. With an average high temperature of 21°C and an average low of 15°C, during the daytime, you will be fine wearing just T-shirts and shorts, but at night, you will need to wear at least a cardigan or a jacket, as it can be quite nippy.
There are around 3 to 4 windy days in January (where the wind speed surpasses 55 km/h), which is 5 to 6 times less than during the summer months, when the wind is almost constant.
With an average UV index of 4 throughout the month, January has the lowest readings of the year for this index (equal to December), which means that a sun lotion with medium protection will be enough to keep your skin protected from the sun.
The great thing about Gran Canaria is that here the weather is nice and warm all year round, meaning that even in January, the weather in Gran Canaria resembles the summer some of the Nordic countries in Europe get. But if you're looking for really hot weather, January might not be the best time to come over and you'd better wait until July and August, when the temperatures really go into summer mode.
The average high temperature in January in Gran Canaria is around 21°C, while at night you can expect temperatures of around 15-16°C.
The highest temperature ever recorded in Gran Canaria in January (at Airport station) was of 29.5°C and the lowest was of 8°C.
January is the second rainiest month of the year, after December. You can expect around 25 mm rainfall over the course of 3 days in January, but some areas are drier than other, so when it rains it doesn't happen at the same time all over the island. Of course, the south of the island, especially the area around Puerto de Mogan, sees a lot less rain than the mountainous regions.
Gran Canaria gets an average of 6 hours of sunshine per day in January, which means that you will also get some cloudy and overcast days throughout the month, since this is a typical feature of the weather in Gran Canaria during the winter months.
The average surface sea temperature in January at the Gran Canaria Airport station is approximately 20°C and it starts to drop while the month progresses towards February.
Can you swim in Gran Canaria in January?
With an average temperature of 20°C, the ocean is too cold for swimming comfortably in January for most people. But especially in the south, in resorts like Puerto Rico, Arguineguin, Playa Amadores or Anfi Beach, you'll still see children playing in the sea and on some beaches people swimming, but it depends on how each person tolerates lower sea temperatures. We usually recommend that you book a place with a heated pool during the winter season if you wish to swim during your holiday.
January is a good month to combine some days of lounging in the sun with days of exploration, in order to make the most of your time here even when the weather might not be so great. Don't be discouraged or disappointed if you get a cloudy or rainy day, since at this time of year it's winter even here in the Canaries. It's better to just hire a car and drive around the island, since there are high chances that you will find some place where it's sunny or where at least it's not raining, which is still a big plus.
The dunes of Maspalomas should be on your list of things to see no matter during which season you come for a visit. On a sunny day, you can walk on the dunes and take some really amazing photographs (it's probably one of the most Instagrammed places in Gran Canaria). Then head over to the beach and if you don't want to sunbathe you can just walk along the ocean, since you have several miles of beach to explore.
This is a great option for a cloudy or rainy day. Head over to the capital and visit this large aquarium that fascinates kids and adults alike. You can learn more about the marine life endemic to the Canary Islands and see some of the species that swim in these waters.
On the 5th of January 2020, the entire island of Gran Canaria will celebrate the visit of the three wise men: Balthasar of Arabia, Melchior of Persia and Gaspar of India. This is a big holiday in Spain and there's a big parade organized in several towns around the island.

New Delhi: On the closing day of its two-day national convention, the Bharatiya Janata Party gave a clarion call to the nation to vote for a 'mazboot sarkar' (strong government) and reject efforts to bring in a 'majboor sarkar' (helpless government).
An estimated 12,000 party members, who had come to Delhi from across the country to attended the national convention at Delhi's Ramlila Maidan, returned to their respective states with the poll slogan 'Abki baar fir Modi sarkar'.
In his over 80-minute-long valedictory address on Saturday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi sounded the poll bugle, stating that "anarchic political parties" have desperately come together and trying to defeat him.
time that these political parties, belonging to diverse political platforms, have gathered to defeat one person," the Prime Minister said.
He spoke at length about his development agenda, made a brief mention of the Ram temple issue blaming the Congress for delaying its resolution and projected his rivals as "corrupt" against his government's "spotless" record in office.
"They want a helpless government so that they can indulge in corruption. We want a strong government so that we can put an end to corruption and bring all-round development to the country," PM Modi said.
In his concluding speech, BJP president Amit Shah asked party workers to reach out to the beneficiaries of Modi government's schemes. There are as many as 22 crore beneficiaries, he said, and every karyakarta has the task to reach out to at least 10.
Shah asked the party workers to go back to their respective states with a pledge to ensure a "big victory" for the BJP in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections to instal Modi government 2.0 at the Centre.
On the party's drubbing in the three Hindi heartland states — Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh — the BJP president asked party workers not to lose hopes.
"Our opponents have won, but BJP is not defeated. Our party has not lost its ground," he said. "The 2019 election is significant for the country as well as the BJP. If we win, we will rule from Parliament to Panchayat for the time to come," the BJP president said.The national convention passed a political resolution on Saturday, which states: "Choice is between stability or instability, between an honest and courageous leader, and a leaderless opportunistic alliance, majboot government or a majboor government.:"The people of the country are sure to re-elect Prime Minister Narendra Modi to continue with his work with renewed dedication. The BJP is determined to make this vision a reality in the coming elections," it said. "It has been more than four-and-a-half years that India is being governed by the BJP-led NDA under the inspiring leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. In this journey of development every section of society is feeling empowered, realising the core development philosophy of Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas," it said.
"Whether it is Congress's Shehzada, West Bengal's Didi or UP's Behenji, they all wish (to be PM), but none of them have the guts to stand in front of our leader Arun Jaitley, Finance Minister"
"One, there has been no major terrorist attack after 2014... Two, we have had corruption-free five years."
"If we get a massive victory in LS polls, BJP will rule the nation from panchayats to Parliament for a long time"

The concept of auto likes on Instagram is an innovation – much like all sorts of automations are. We want to automate everything, from our refrigerator to our emails to our bill payments. Getting Instagram likes is also something that we would like to get automated and served to us on a platter.
While many may prefer the organic route of getting likes through engaging with followers, scheduling posts at strategic times, and having quality content, Instagram Auto is now a definite thing. After all, this is a highly competitive social media platform, with several companies and organizations all clamoring to capture the limited attention span of Internet users.
Any old post that doesn't have a high amount of likes should be scheduled for deletion. If you have a good automation tool, it would do this for you without much effort on your part. Harboring posts with a low level of engagement would only worsen your record according to the Instagram algorithm.
Deleting old posts would also make sure that anyone who directly visits your profile only gets access to the high-quality, high-engagement posts. This would further your reputation online and make sure that they keep on liking and engaging with your posts as well. People are likely to follow other people on social media, so having only posts that attract engagement is a concept that would work immensely in your favor.
It's not just about the number of likes you get on your posts or how many comments you get on your content in general, but also the engagement with the comments themselves. These include likes and any other kinds of reactions. All of these are a sort of engagement that can spiral your posts and hence your account to the top.
Likes and reactions on comments would also get people to appreciate the fact that you take out time to interact with them. This would make them share and engage with your content all the more, thereby contributing to your increased followers. Reactions to comments are more direct and personal than simple likes and reactions on posts or other content.
Once you have an automatic liking system in place, you're going to get the attention of several Instagram users. The audience, in this case, could very well be unlimited. Once you get a service to get Auto Like started, you can use that tool every few minutes. The more you use it, the more likes you would get. This would directly increase the popularity of your Instagram profile and get people to like your account for your updates on their own as well.
The more likes you have on your content, the more your posts would come in front of other users. Even if they haven't directly followed you, more and more Instagram users would be seeing your posts because of their friends or followers liking and engaging with your content. This gets you a huge amount of attention that is incomparable with any other kind of advertising you pay for.
Speaking of advertising, having automatic likes on your account would also serve as a marketing tool. You can pay for your ads to interrupt videos or come in the middle of news feeds. This would definitely get you some attention and brand familiarity, but could also up your irritable factor as well. Users usually don't take kindly to being interrupted when they're on social media for entertainment, relaxation, or even business purposes.
Hence, having auto likes is quite a safe, subtle, and effective way to get attention without directly calling for it. Users would be seeing your content and its high level of engagement and instantly be curious about what's going on with your account. They would hence be more tempted to follow your account and thus increase your followers. This would then hopefully lead to a cycle of enhancing your reputation and more followers getting on board because of it.
The Instagram Auto Like system is not just limited to getting likes for yourself, but would also like other accounts and their posts on your behalf. When other profiles and accounts see you liking and engaging with their content, they're much more likely to reply, comment, or like your content back. This would actually take you more towards organic traffic than before.
If nothing else, liking some content would get you a visit for that account's manager or owner. You're much more likely to get a follow or even more likes out of them in this way. The more photos your account is liking per hour, the more response you would get. Your account is sure to grow with such a strategy.
Finally, your account would also be automatically following the hashtags you show interest in. When you like more content related to your interests, your Instagram experience is sure to become better with each passing day. You can get inspiration from market leaders and competitors in this manner, and strive to learn from their successful strategies online. If they make any blunders, you stand to learn from those as well!
Getting and giving likes is definitely not spam. This is why so many services only offer likes on your behalf. Any account would be more than happy to gain as many likes as possible; it's highly unlikely that anyone would resent it. We may thus conclude that auto like Instagram is quite a useful tool and one that heralds the future of social media marketing. With such a system at our disposal, we can easily follow our interests, gain more followers every week, and enhance our own online presence. This would, in turn, help us achieve whatever goal we have in being on Instagram and on social media in general.
Wonderful article! It is very useful tips for getting more Instagram likes. Thanks for sharing this post.
