Culminating NEMA's 90th Annual Membership Meeting, Christopher B. Curtis accepted the Bernard H. Falk Award, NEMA's highest honor. The award recognizes individuals with outstanding achievements in technology, management, public affairs, and other fields important to the electroindustry.
Mr. Curtis, currently the CEO of Wencor Group and a senior adviser at Schneider Electric, a NEMA member company, was a member of the NEMA Board of Governors (BOG) from 2008 to 2014 and chaired the board in 2014–2015.
In making the announcement, NEMA President and CEO Kevin J. Cosgriff described his colleague as one who "exemplifies honor, commitment, dedication, and great character and is a steadfast supporter of the electroindustry."
Throughout a long career with Schneider Electric, including as president of Schneider Electric USA, Mr. Curtis honed a reputation as a forward thinker. He held numerous positions in the United States and Canada, ranging from sales, marketing, and distribution to developing and implementing business strategies for products and services sold to original equipment manufacturers.
Mr. Curtis currently presides over the Industry Data Exchange Association (IDEA) as chairman and currently serves as chairman of the board at Munters AB. During his tenure on the American Heart Association Board of Directors, he co-chaired the largest heart fundraising effort in the United States.
According to Michael W. Pessina, co-chief executive officer and president of Lutron Electronics Company, Inc., and incoming chairman of the NEMA BOG, Mr. Curtis demonstrates a unique leadership style in the industry, at NEMA, and with IDEA.
"Chris has the ability to understand strategy, and he never forgets about the different parties and influencers involved in making sure we get the best solution for everyone," Mr. Pessina said.
Mr. Curtis recently summed up his approach to life with a line from the John Mellencamp song, "Peaceful World": "If you are not part of the future, then get out of the way."

Porsche unveils new edition 935 - a throwback to one of motor racing's sexiest cars ever
By Scott Collie •
10:51am Sep 28, 2018
Porsche has unveiled a stunning throwback Le Mans race car as part of its 70th anniversary celebrations.
The 935 harks back to one of Porsche's most famous racers, the 935/78 affectionately dubbed 'Moby Dick' by fans because of its massive 'whale tail'.
Based on the 2018 911 GT2 RS, the modern 935 will be reserved for a privileged few.
The new edition Porsche 935 is a throwback to the famous Le Mans racer of 1978. (Supplied)
The car is affectionately dubbed the 'Moby Dick' because of its 'whale tail'. (Supplied)
Just 77 examples will be made, each with a price in the region of $1.1 million.
And you'll pay more for the stunning Martini paint job pictured here. The car will otherwise be finished in a shade of water-based Agate grey.
At 4865mm long, 2034mm wide and 1359mm tal, the 935 is larger in every dimension than its donor car. That's thanks to its bespoke carbon-fibre body panels, fashioned to mimic those of the original 935/78.
Just 77 of the cars will be made - and they'll cost around $1.1m each. (Supplied)
The car set tongues wagging with its outlandish shape when it was launched in 1978.

The front end was relatively conventional for its time, but the elongated, aerodynamic tail was something else.
It was also a bit sneaky. The only reason Porsche could fit such wild bodywork was because of a finicky loophole in regulations.
The interior features a gear knob finished in laminated wood, paying homage to the Carrera GT and Bergspyder. (Supplied)
Power in the 1970s came from a 3.2-litre turbocharged flat-six engine pumping out 560kW. Today, it comes from a variation of the 3.8-litre turbo flat-six from the GT2 RS, sending around 515kW of power to the rear wheels through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission.
Where the 1978 racer weighed around 1000kg, the 2018 homage tips the scales at 1380kg.
The modern recreation rides on 18-inch wheels modelled to look like the aero-inspired units of yore, wrapped in Michelin slick tyres. There are six-piston aluminium racing calipers and 380mm steel brake discs up front, and four-piston calipers with 365mm discs down back.
Inside, the standard GT2 RS interior has been stripped bare. The driver sits in a carbon fibre Recaro race seat, faced with a bespoke digital instrument display and a proper race steering wheel.
It won't let you change the radio station, instead carrying controls for things like your pit lane speed limiter. There are switches allowing the driver to fine-tune the traction control, stability control and ABS intervention, too.
There are some luxuries, though, with air-conditioning fitted as standard. You can also have a passenger seat installed.
Porsche's vice president said the car was a 70th anniversary gift to fans around the world. (Supplied)
The gear knob is finished in laminated wood, a deliberately old-fashioned material designed to call legendary Porsche Motorsport projects like the Carrera GT and 909 Bergspyder.
Porsche took a good, hard look at the history book before putting the 935 together.
As you may have gathered from the wild wings and slick tyres, this isn't road-legal – a fact in which Porsche revels.
"This spectacular car is a birthday present from Porsche Motorsport to fans all over the world," said Dr Frank-Steffen Walliser, vice president of Porsche GT cars and motorsport.
"Because the car isn't homologated, engineers and designers didn't have to follow the usual rules and thus had freedom in the development."

Five years ago, Tara Mohr began to see a pattern in her work as an expert in leadership: women with tremendous talent, ideas and aspiration were not recognising their own brilliance. They felt that they were `playing small' in their lives and careers and wanted to `play bigger', but didn't know how. And so Tara devised a step-by-step programme for playing big from the inside out: this book is the result.
Tara Sophia Mohr is the founder of the global Playing Big leadership program for women and an expert on women's leadership and well-being. With an MBA from Stanford University and a degree in English literature from Yale, she is also a regular contributor to the Huffington Post; in demand as a key-note speaker - including for the Emerging Women conference; TED and Harvard Business School - and has been featured on the TODAY Show, MORE, ForbesWoman, Harvard Business Review, Whole Living, the Financial Times and numerous other media outlets.

UMass in talks to acquire Mt. Ida College in Newton, Mass.
The University of Massachusetts is looking to acquire Mount Ida College in Newton, Mass., a source familiar with the proposal has told MassLive.
Details of the proposal were not immediately available and officials with UMass and Mount Ida did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Mount Ida, a small private college, recently discussed merging with Lasell College, which is also a small private college in Newton, but those talks fell through.
Mount Ida, which has 1,555 undergraduate and graduate students, was founded in 1899 as a liberal arts college. Most of its students live on the 72-acre campus.
The college is led by Barry Brown, the former acting president and provost of Suffolk University in Boston. The college's website describes the institution as "[n]estled in the picturesque and safe suburb of Newton."
The UMass system has 74,500 students on five campuses across the state: Amherst, Boston, Dartmouth, Lowell and the medical school in Worcester.
The impact of the proposal on the Boston campus, located in the city's Dorchester neighborhood, remains unclear.
The UMass Boston campus is searching for a new chancellor. Barry Mills, the former president of Bowdoin College, was brought in by top UMass officials on an interim basis to dive into reported budget issues at the campus.


I've been thinking over the last few days about how some people might be starting to think that we've lost the plot going for Christmas Number One and maybe that it's all a little bit ridiculous. It's probably all those things but there is method in the madness…! Part of our job in schools is to make sure that our children get to an expected level of literacy, numeracy etc. but it's about so much more than that. It's about encouraging independence, resilience, confidence, a development of the whole-self and to have high aspirations.
We teach our children that anything is possible and this only works if we genuinely believe that to be true. When we sat down to plan a Royal Wedding a few months ago, we had a vision but none of us expected the horse-drawn carriages, helicopter flying overhead, hundreds lining the streets and international press coverage. It goes without saying that it was an incredible day and one that anyone involved with will never forget. I guess, we got a taste of thinking big!
We've had festivals on the field with a professional stage, lighting system and fireworks display that any council would be happy with for a lights switch on. At each turn, we have been inundated with offers of support and have been blown away by people's kindness. Those who genuinely believe that anything is possible are, quite literally, queuing up to help us make the unbelievable happen. If you are one of those people reading this right now, I can't begin to explain how special you are and what a difference you make to the world. A special mention goes to the lovely man who organised for us to have thousands of pound's worth of flags, bunting and Union Jack paraphernalia, which made all the difference during our mock wedding of Meghan and Harry. We love people like you!
A few months ago, I did an assembly about dreams, goals and aspirations and one child said that they'd love to be a pop star and have a Number One. It got us thinking, why not?
So, rather than discard the notion to the rubbish pile; we decided to come up with a plan and show the children that we really should always follow our dreams and seize the day!
We didn't think that we knew any professional music producers or sound engineers; we were delighted to find the incredible twosome of Simba and Will – we just knew they 'got it' immediately and we fell a bit in love with their energy! We saw the glint in their eye when we told them the big goal – Christmas Number One – and rather than laughing us out of the room, they asked where to sign up. Alongside our very talented Mrs Wild, Mrs Bryze, children and staff, they helped write and produce a song that would take 15-20 people way longer than the time that they actually had. Fleetwood High and the fabulous Emma sorted us out with all the recording gear we needed and a professional recording studio. We came up with an idea for the video and venues and companies couldn't have been more helpful. The more we spoke to people, the more people were up for it and the momentum started to grow.
If the whole idea had a goal of a 10/10, we'd have fun even if we got to a 4, even a 3 would be a laugh, I reckon.
But then more special people got involved whose kindness is genuinely humbling – Anthony from the Winter Gardens Blackpool deserves a special mention. He has been so generous with his time and has even worked his magic and delayed the setting up of 'The Wizard of Oz' just so we can have our red-carpet launch of our Christmas single – 'Light Up' in the amazing Opera House. I can't wait for our children to stand on the huge stage in the iconic 2,800 seater venue and perform as part of the entertainment for the audience. It goes without saying that it will be an experience that they will never forget and hopefully a true goose bumps moment. I hope they will go home walking a little bit taller for performing on the same stage as the likes of Frank Sinatra!
There have been many other people who have been helping us along the way; the totally lovely Michael in PR and Alzheimer's Society who have been giving us help and advice. My wonderful other half, Alex, has spent hours helping me each night at home with the marketing and Kev and the talented team at Iced have sorted us out with a website and domain as well as countless other graphics and images to help the campaign. Thank you to you all for making this all happen.
Paula from Radio Wave, an ex-Flakefleet pupil has been so supportive and generous with her time and has been a driving force in the fabulous Radio Wave getting behind one of their local schools in trying to achieve the impossible. I'm looking forward to having them by our side as we progress on our journey towards Christmas.
Last week, we found out that BBC TV and Radio would be coming along, as well as a number of other media outlets.
I can't tell you who it is but we got really, REALLY close to getting somebody very famous to come along to host our event but unfortunately they couldn't re-arrange a filming session they had. Even though we didn't quite pull it off, it was so exciting knowing that we got very close to signing them up!
Even if we don't pull it off, I can't tell you how proud I am to work in a school with staff and children who genuinely believe that we might just do it – they actually dare to dream and believe that we could achieve the impossible this Christmas. To encourage aspirations and dreams is tough, they don't teach you how to do it at any school, college or university so to actually have everyone actively believing in their dreams is an incredible feeling. Even if we don't hit the top spot this Christmas, we will have had a great shared experience and will all be a better person for it. We're aiming for a 10/10 but even if we stop now, it would feel like we've pulled off something special and a very respectable 7/10!
If you're one of those people out there who've been following our story and want us to achieve the unimaginable please share like never before and tell the world that you #daretodream.


Drawing inspiration from the 'Socios' crowd-management concept of Spanish football clubs, a Malta-based company named chiliZ allows esports fans around the world to have a voice in their favourite teams, leagues and events' decision making.
Embracing both cryptocurrency and the blockchain technology, chiliZ's goal is to enable fans to do more than just watch and hope the team they support succeeds by giving them direct tokenized voting rights.
Think about the concept of a fantasy league but with real teams and leagues, how cool is it to be able to weigh in your favourite team's decisions as well as the leagues. Don't agree with the format or how the seeding works? Then use your tokens to show how it should be done. Think some players deserve a spot on a pro-team? Then use your tokens to draft them onto the team. Of course things won't be as simple, fan consensus will be needed for it to happen but you get the idea – fans can become 'active managers or coaches' in their favourite organizations.
The consistently fast-growing industry that is esports and its young, digital-savvy audience makes for the perfect environment for blockchain services and significantly increases its chances of adoption. What is promising about the chiliZ platform is how much it could enhance the experience of being an esports fan by allowing them to get involved more than just wearing a jersey or cheering at a venue. The ability for fans to have access to a currency that translates to influence over the entities they love could drastically increase the engagement and the fan investment across the entire esports industry. The company also talks about allowing fans to contribute more directly to the funding of the esports industry. Right now, several games such as Dota 2 use in-game purchases to fund competitions and tournaments, chiliZ aims at making funding easier by allowing games, teams and other organizations to trade management decisions for funding.
I'm sure many fans of esports and sports alike would want to have their say regarding their team's decisions but there isn't any system for them to voice their opinions and views which is why chiliZ can appeal to a great amount of people.
What do you think about this? Do you think esports will be evolving into fan-driven and fan-controlled organizations and structures via a similar system? Will you be getting tokens? Let us know in the comments!

Seventy Per Cent Of Australians Over The Age Of 16 Are Now Fully Vaxxed
Ria Lawrence • October 20, 2021

Australia has officially passed its first major vaccination milestone.
During lockdown, our list of hobbies has grown from baking and watching Netflix to keeping an eye on our vaccination numbers every day. And now, in very welcome news indeed, Australia has reached a major milestone with over 70 per cent of residents over the age of 16 fully vaccinated and at least 85 per cent vaccinated with one dose.
While Australia's vaccine rollout started slower than some other countries, it has certainly picked momentum in the last few months with thousands of residents doing their bit daily and bringing us that much closer to some semblance of normality and freedom.
Health Minister Greg Hunt confirmed the news via a press conference earlier today.
"I can officially confirm that Australia has now passed the 70 per cent double-dosed vaccination rate for the 16-plus population," Mr Hunt said.
"It's a memorable number, but it's memorable above all else because it represents the movement at a national level to phase B of our national roadmap."
The move to phase B will indicate restrictions easing for fully vaccinated residents, lockdowns becoming less likely and international visa holders and residents being able to return to the country.
Details will be announced later in the month.
Australia's vaccination rate by State
Here in Victoria, 66.1 per cent of us are fully vaccinated, and 89 per cent have had a first dose.
Both ACT and NSW have passed 80 per cent double vaccination rate among eligible adults. Meanwhile, Tasmania is on the verge of hitting 70 per cent double dose. Both South Australia and NT are due to hit 60 per cent soon.
Queensland and Western Australia are lagging behind with 57.5 per cent and 56.5 per cent respectively.

In the spring of 2018, the Town applied for and received District Local Technical Assistance for planning assistance from our regional planning agency, Montachusett Regional Planning Commission, to create a tourism brochure to promote our local economy. This was a continuation of the Town's efforts to foster the growth of the business community and highlight the Town's natural resources. The brochure was intended to be used on the Town website and by the Lunenburg Business Association to highlight Lunenburg's resources to visitors and hard copies to be circulated at local tourism centers and town buildings. Montachusett Regional Planning Commission staff worked with town officials and the Lunenburg Business Association over the course of the year on the content and aesthetics of the brochure and completed the project in January of 2019. The links below are the two sides of the brochure, one side being a map with key points of interest and the other side with content descriptions of trails, farms, and other recreation areas in Lunenburg.

Mortal Kombat X Continues Screwing PC Owners - New Content Coming Only to Consoles
When Mortal Kombat X released on the PC, it was a bit of a shitshow. It began with the decision to download the game in chunks. In theory, that should allow players to enjoy part of the game while the rest downloaded in the background. The problem was, the system was broken, and chunks either failed to download or downloaded repeatedly. This meant that entire portions of the game were flat out broken for a long time, including story mode, online play, and more. On top of that, the netcode...

Nonsedating Antihistamines: Are They Truly Nonsedating?
Am Fam Physician. 2000 Oct 15;62(8):1902-1904.
The second-generation antihistamines were developed principally to avoid sedative actions. Mann and colleagues analyzed side effect data on four second-generation antihistamines to assess the frequency of sedation in patients taking these agents.
Data on loratadine, cetirizine, fexofenadine and acrivastine were obtained from the general practice prescription-event monitoring project in Great Britain. With this monitoring system, pharmacists send all prescriptions to the Prescription Pricing Authority, which then sends information to the Drug Safety Research Unit. The latter group sends questionnaires to general practitioners who wrote the original prescriptions to collect data on side effects. The questionnaires are sent three, six or 12 months after the original prescription is written.
Replies from physicians were received for 50.7 percent of the 9,308 patients treated with loratadine, 50.9 percent of the 16,638 patients treated with fexofenadine, 56.5 percent of the 7,863 patients treated with acrivastine and 57.4 percent of the 9,554 patients treated with cetirizine. In general, antihistamines were more likely to be prescribed to women than to men and to younger patients than to older patients; 62.3 percent of the patients were women, and 40.3 percent of the patients were younger than 30 years. The demographics of the patients who received each drug were quite similar.
The number of reports of sedation or drowsiness was low for all four drugs. When sedation occurred, it did so most often in the first weeks of treatment. Sedation was least common with fexofenadine. Using loratadine as the standard and adjusting for age and sex, the odds ratio for the risk of drowsiness and sedation was 0.63 for fexofenadine, 2.79 for acrivastine and 3.53 for cetirizine.
The authors conclude that the second-generation antihistamines are associated with a low incidence of drowsiness and sedation. Because fexofenadine and loratadine had the lowest incidence of sedation, the authors suggest that either of these agents may be appropriate choices when even an infrequent rate of sedation would be undesirable, such as in patients whose occupations could be hazardous if sedation occurs.

Bergesbirken ist eine Ortschaft  von Wipperfürth im Oberbergischen Kreis im Regierungsbezirk Köln in Nordrhein-Westfalen (Deutschland). Die Ortschaft gehört zum Ortsteil Thier.

Lage und Beschreibung
Bergesbirken liegt im Süden des Stadtgebietes von Wipperfürth auf einem von Thier bis nach Agathaberg verlaufenden Höhernrücken. Nachbarorte sind Thier, Wüstenhof, Klespe und Hermesberg.

Politisch wird der Ort durch den Direktkandidaten des Wahlbezirks 15 (150) Thier im Rat der Stadt Wipperfürth vertreten.

Geschichte
Der Ort Birken im Kirchspiel Wipperfürth wird in einer Urkunde vom 10. November 1433 erwähnt. Kunigunde von Bernsau, Witwe des Johann Kreuwel von Gimborn, schenkt den Hof dem Kloster zu Seligenthal.
Die Karte Topographia Ducatus Montani aus dem Jahre 1715 zeigt einen Hof und bezeichnet diesen mit "Birken". Die Karte Topographische Aufnahme der Rheinlande von 1825 zeigt Birken auf umgrenztem Hofraum mit drei einzelnen Gebäudegrundrissen. Ab der topografische Karte der Jahre 1894 bis 1896 lautet die Ortsbezeichnung Bergesbirken.

Aus dem Jahre 1882 stammt das am Rand einer Wiese stehende Wegekreuz aus Sandstein. Am Platz des Kreuzes schlug der Überlieferung nach ein Blitz in ein Fuhrwerk ein. Dass der Kutscher das Naturereignis überlebte, war der Grund für die Errichtung des Kreuzes.

What does it take to upgrade to EMV in the U.S.?
EMV is quickly approaching in the US. There is no doubt that a wave of implementation is upon us.
Successful migration to EMV will involve making changes to all payment systems, processes and procedures, so it is important to for card issuers and merchants alike to begin the implementation now.
Lately banks and processors have told us that they are overwhelmed by the many unanswered questions surrounding the implementation of EMV chip technology. Indeed, upgrading to EMV chip cards brings a great deal of change to an already complex payment ecosystem.
How is the liability shift driving the roadmap to EMV?
How far has the U.S. come in preparing processing infrastructure for EMV?
How will EMV and mobile payments work together at the POS?
How will transactions and processes be altered?
How will certification requirements for EMV cards drive POS requirements?
While EMV is new to the U.S., the change appears overwhelming. Gemalto has gained expertise from being in the trenches during many EMV implementations around the world over the past 20 years.
Verifone and Gemalto are hosting a joint webinar on Friday, July 19th. This is your opportunity to hear one of Gemalto's Vice Presidents provide guidance on the challenges that card issuers are facing in upgrading to EMV chip technology.
Have a question that you'd like us to answer during the webinar? Let us know in the comments section below.
There is a great amount of questions from merchants when it comes to EMV and the steps needed to make the change. It's going to be a long process to a complex systems as you state.

Thread: The Wire
Kurosawa Fan
Too much responsibility
It's the best show on television. Just admit it.
Sycophant
Good-bye, Match Cut
I'm glad season four is being released on DVD at a significantly lower SRP. I hope HBO sees good returns on this and learns from it.
I've been thinking I need to blitz through all four seasons again before season five debuts in... what, February?
It's the greatest show there ever was. Cue number8 saying Homicide was better in...
He hasn't even finished The Wire, so his opinion isn't valid. I don't say that The Wire is better than Homicide because I haven't seen the latter.
February can't come soon enough.
Piss off, ghost!
Homicide is better.
Quoting number8 (view post)
If we ever get rep, expect some negative.
I think I'll watch Homicide soon. It really makes no sense that I haven't watched it at all yet.
Well, how do you gauge? Homicide has more seasons than The Wire. Do I wait until The Wire hits 7 seasons to be fair?
I've seen the first 3 seasons of The Wire. If I compare it to the first 3 of Homicide, then Homicide is better. If Season 4 is as godly as everyone say (which I'm not doubting), then even if it has the possibility of eclipsing any season of Homicide, I'd still tout Homicide as the better series because it's more consistent and has more characters that I like.
DSNT
I'll Have a Criterion.
The Wire's next season, the 5th, will be its last.
I can't speak for Homicide, having only seen a few episodes (which were okay), but I've never seen a show that develops from season to season as The Wire did.
I'm rewatching The Wire while my friend sees it for the first time.
Second time around makes me appreciate the first season more now that I know all the characters pretty well.
I'm halfway through Season 2 but I got sidetracked when I borrowed The Office UK from a friend. Now that I have burned through that series in a couple days, I'm ready to finish this up.
Torgo
Spectacular show! Up there with The Office (UK) as one of my very favorites.
The season 4 DVDs will be released on December 4. Can't wait!
The "villains" are so memorable and exceptionally written as well. I can't believe one wonderful character has exited the show via season three. That was a shocking moment especially[
since it was the first time that fear was clearly visible in the man's face.
Season 4 is amazing. You'll love it.
Last I heard, Season 5 was going live in January. Does anyone know if the episodes have already been shot, or could they become WGA strike collateral damage?
Quoting DSNT (view post)
Someone I know personally said that the show was safe, but I have no evidence to back that up. I'm just praying it's true.
I'm almost positive it's all in the can by now. At the very least, the writing portion is well behind them, as is the production phase. I think photography wrapped in September or something.
I believe HBO shows work differently than network shows. I think they shoot early.
Quoting Donald Glover
I was actually just reading about Matt Damon and he's like, 'There's a culture of outrage.' I'm like, 'Well, they have a reason to be outraged.' I think it's a lot of dudes just being scared. They're like, 'What if I did something and I didn't realize it?' I'm like, 'Deal with it.'
Movie Theater Diary
HBO shoots all of its season together because of its larger then normal budget. Its probably near the end of its editing phase by now. It's safe.
The dude's next show in Orleans may take a while to come.
Definitely safe. I just watched my TiVo'd CYE last night and there was a Wire commercial beforehand saying January 2008.
I forgot to drop by here when I finished Season 2. Without stating the obvious that it's fantastic television, I think certain aspects of the season felt undercooked. I felt like half of the police squad really took a backseat just so we can feel comfortable seeing familiar faces once and awhile. Greggs, Daniels, and Prez were all power players the first year, but faded into the background during the second. The same can be said about characters from the drug dealer side, but their storyline was significantly diminished as a whole this year. I really enjoyed the port cast, though, so it's give and take I suppose.
Still great and I'm not even going to say it's a step down, just that I prefer Season 1.
I feel exactly the same way. I still thought season 2 was great, but I prefer season 1. Still, seasons 3 and 4 are progressively better than season 1, with season 4 being the best season of any television show I've ever seen. I can't wait for next year.
Season 2 was my least favorite, but I came to appreciate it more in time, because the show builds on it, like they do everything else.
One thing I love about The Wire is that, with the exception of McNulty, there are no major characters, and even he fades into the background on occasion. Characters will appear based on the story's need, not popularity or contractual obligation. This makes the show even more closer to reality, as there are always a revolving cast of characters within any institution.
Seasons 3 and 4 will blow you away.
In case you guys didn't know, Season 4 is pretty cheap to pre-order at Amazon. That may be a Black Friday/Cyber Monday price, so it might change quick.
We got the first three seasons for $70 the other day. ritch:
I need to rent this show and see what KF is so damn excited about. And then if he's wrong I'll negatively rep him :P
If he's right though? I'll agree with him. What did you expect more rep KF? You'll have to try harder than that
You won't disagree with him too much. Season 4 is as good as TV can get really. The only shows that have compared are a few Sopranos seasons, and probably the first season of Oz.
$27.49 right away for a HBO TV Series? Done.


NHS England in Lincolnshire is to stage a series of drop-in sessions for patients, following the recent consultation on the future of services at Burton Road Surgery in Lincoln.
Last week (7 October) NHS England wrote to patients to explain it will shortly advertise the opportunity to provide services for Burton Road Surgery patients for at least the next five years.

Get to Know Your Dusk 2019 Daily Lineups!
Heather Kupka - October 1, 2019
Dusk Music Festival first came to life in 2016. Since it's creation, the festival has brought internationally renowned artist to Tucson such as RL Grime, Big Sean, Dillon Francis, A-Trak, Big Gigantic, Louis The Child and more. In addition to music, Dusk highlights the best food and art in Tucson, creating an immersive festival experience. Last year the festival moved downtown to Armory Park and we're excited to return this November for the fourth rendition. Check out the day by day lineups below!
Headlining Saturday night, Kaskade is no stranger to Arizona. He brings massive crowds and even bigger vibes. Born Ryan Raddon, he's been one of the most in-demand artists in the electronic scene for over a decade. His talent is often unparalleled and his extensive discography and list of accomplishments (which includes six Grammy nominations and two-time title of DJ of the Year) speaks for itself. He's one of the hardest working producers in the biz, performing nonstop at festival and clubs and releasing music on a seemingly non-stop basis, but we're not complaining! We love everything Kaskade does from the emotive ballads to the big room bangers.
A R I Z O N A is an electropop rock band from New Jersey that never fails to brighten a stage. They began making music together in 2015 and the band's debut studio album, GALLERY, was released in May 2017 followed by a headlining tour that Fall. A R I Z O N A is no stranger to the festival scene. They've played South by Southwest, the Governors Ball Music Festival, Firefly Music Festival, and Lollapalooza to name a few and have worked with DJs like Don Diablo on "Take Her Place."
Indie Pop band Fitz and The Tantrums formed in 2008. Consisting of six talented musicians, F&TT gives you that jam band feel. Their debut studio album, Pickin' Up the Pieces, was released in August 2010 on Dangerbird Records to much acclaim. It reached No. 1 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart and catapulted the band's popularity. You likely know them from their massive hit "HandClap," but the whole discography speaks to their brilliance.
Joe Boston, professionally known as Shallou, is a Los Angeles based producer and singer. His style is ambient, and his house melodies and soulful vocals have carved a niche in the Indie and Electronic music scenes. His debut EP, All Becomes Okay, was released in May 2017, followed by EP Souls in April 2018, both through his own label, Sleeptalker.
Australian producer Wax Motif, born Danny Chien, has risen above a sea of talent in the house music industry and is riding the wave he's made for himself through his unique sound and talent. There really isn't anyone like him, and in an ocean of talented producers, this makes him attractive to bigger fish taking notice. In early August, Wax Motif announced the launch of his label, Divided Souls Records, and then on August 28, he dropped the first song released by the label, "Divided Souls."
Aussie producer Chris Emerson, better known as What So Not, came onto the scene in 2010 as part of a duo, Flume. They've since split and gone their own ways, and What So Not has been thriving solo for the past few years. Originating in Sydney, Australia, What So Not has been an influence in the industry even before the breakout of his solo career. He's best known for his hits such as "Gemini," "Jaguar," "High You Are," and "Tell Me."
Whethan has becoming a staple in the indie/electro-pop spectrum during his short career thus far. Amassing hundreds of millions of streams, it's hard to deny the young producers talent. He's worked with renowned artists Louis The Child, Flux Pavilion, and Slushii, just to name a few. Last year he released his Life of a Wallflower Vol 1. EP, leaving fans in anticipation for Volume 2. Expect to hear more from this rising star in coming years.
Isabelle Rezazadeh, more simply known as REZZ, has dominated the scene since her start in 2015. The Ukraine born artist, Canadian raised producer has a unique sound that is distinctly her own. She released her debut EP, Insurrection in 2015 through OWSLA's sub-label Nest HQ. In 2016, she signed with Deadmau5's record label Mau5trap, and released follow-ups The Silence is Deafening and Something Wrong Here. Her debut studio album, Mass Manipulation, followed by Certain Kind of Magic, came in 2018. It's apparent she's one of the hardest working artists in the industry, further proven by her huge "cult" following. Not only is her music one of a kind, her spiral goggles and devilish visuals make her shows a must-see.
Co-headlining on Sunday is Two Door Cinema Club. Though this group is an indie rock band, they have worked alongside electronic artists, notably when talented DJ Madeon produced their track "Changing of the Seasons" in 2013. A beautiful blend of acoustic and electronic, the single was even called "the hottest record in the world" by BBC Radio 1's Zane Lowe. More recently the group released False Alarm, their fourth studio album that's already surpassed tens of millions of streams on Spotify alone.
BRONCHO is an American indie rock band based in Norman, Oklahoma formed almost 10 years ago. The current lineup consists of Ryan Lindsey on guitar and vocals, Ben King on guitars, Penny Pitchlynn on bass and Nathan Price on drums. Their debut album Can't Get Past the Lips originally came out in 2011 and was rereleased by Fairfax Recordings in 2013. Since then they've released three more albums and continue to impress fans.
CRAY, often mistaken as being an abbreviation for "crazy," is an LA-based DJ, singer, and producer has been bringing color, class, and gammer sass to the scene since 2015. Her rise to EDM fame started when she was an opener on Anna Lunoe's HyperHouse Tour in 2016. After that, it was nothing but packed stages and chickens flocking to her every show and festival set like HARD Summer, VooDoo and Electric Zoo. CRAY went international in 2018. She kicked off a year of touring through Japan alongside Skrillex, followed by multiple festival appearances and went on to inject a little CRAYziness into China for her own tour.
French producer Quentin Dombres, aka Dombresky, has ha a great 2019. He's proven track after track to be a master when it comes to experimenting among his native genre, house music. Diverse, yet concise pieces like "Soul Sacrifice," "Futurmastic," "Like That," and "Utopia," can all attest to the way Dombresky is able to manipulate house music into an irresistibly refreshing thing. The energy he instills into his productions is truly nothing short of jaw-dropping, dance-inducing bliss.
Josh Legg, known professionally as Goldroom, is an electro house DJ, but he isn't afraid to break genre barriers. Goldroom has developed a unique style in his dance hits like "Till Sunrise" and "Silhouette", but his latest EP takes this distinctive, sun-kissed sound a step further. Goldroom's musical influences are Daft Punk, LCD Soundsystem, Nirvana, and Bob Dylan, and the Everybody's Lonely EP follows in those artist's footprints in regards to experimentation and musicality.
A balaclava-wearing producer of stern (if frequently humor-laced) bass house tracks, Malaa surfaced in 2015, unidentified, though an early press bio dropped a crumb by referring to him as Parisian. Fool's Gold Records hosted the debut Malaa single, "Pregnant," immediately after which Tchami's Confession label became the supplier of roughly a dozen singles and EPs across 2016 and 2017. Among Malaa's most popular releases during this period were "Notorious" and the Tchami collaboration "Prophecy," while the artist also began to accumulate remix credits, highlighted by his commissioned work on Skrillex and Diplo's Jack Ü track "Mind."
Jennifer Lee, better known as TOKiMONSTA, has been firing off hit after hit since she began making music in 2008. She's been breaking down barriers as a female DJ of color, and as an artist. In 2015, she was diagnosed with Moyamoya disease, which constricts arteries in your brain, making it difficult for her to comprehend everyday functions, such as language. Despite not being able to fully understand music at the time, she was still able to churn out her impeccable album Lune Rouge. Tokimonsta is arguably one of the most hardworking and stylized artists in the electronic game, and her tracks speak for themselves.

Just because Oregon is poised to legalize recreational marijuana in November doesn't mean everyone in the state is crazy about cannabis.
Several city council members in the town of Gold Hill are facing a recall election – all because they voted to allow a medical marijuana dispensary within the town's borders.
Though the dispensary, Breeze Botanicals, is legal under state law and so far has complied with all regulations, enough of the town's 1,200 residents are unhappy about the dispensary that a recall effort has four of six volunteer council members in its crosshairs.
Supporters of the recall contend that Breeze Botanicals is too close to a city park, a church and a school, even though the proximity complies with state rules. They say that even if the dispensary is legal, that doesn't mean the community wants it.


Since starting The Brighter Side in November 2011, we have been overwhelmed with the response. The idea for The Brighter Side was to bring Good News, Great Ideas and Amazing People to those you needed a pick me up from the everyday news that had us down. The Brighter Side's mission was simple, bring a smile to those who need it. Our founder Christina Rowsell found herself caught up in the day to day grind of everything out there was bad news. Plus, having a family member who suffered a chemical imbalance, who didn't have the option of seeing The Brighter Side of life, so Christina made it her mantra to bring happiness to those who couldn't seem to find it themselves.
Along the way, within these last 9 months, we've met some incredible people with amazing ideas. Small businesses with incredible people behind them. Most run off of passion. They followed their hearts desire and have made a run and turning it into a business. But what we found was that most didn't have a business degree. They just did what they know to try to make it work. They have GREAT ideas, but don't really know how to take it to the next level.
Look at Confident Curls. When I met with Vanessa McWilliams, I was in awe of her story. While out for a cup of coffee talking about Confident Curls I asked Vanessa if she had a press release. She said, "What's a press release?". I led her in the right direction, and within the week she was doing radio and television interviews. Plus, through her media blitz, she was the Woman of Vision for the month of March with Global TV.
Along the way though, we met one company who had it together. Get It Together Inc. Sheri Bruneau from Get It Together was a former elementary school teacher, and now runs Get It Together full time. Sheri says, it's not just about organizing space, it's about organizing your life. Get It Together not only organizes residences, but they work with small businesses as well. From office space, to social networking. Sheri has taken training in Social Media and Social Media Management and provides clients with custom landing pages for Facebook, setting up Twitter, LinkedIn, and Google + business pages, as well as offering Social Media management and training. And while out for a coffee meeting, Sheri and Christina realized that The Brighter Side and Get It Together would make a great team!
Meet the Brighter Business Empower.
The Brighter Side and Get It Together both have the same ideas. Wanting to help small businesses take their companies to the next level. The Brighter Business Empower series of seminars will do just that. To "Empower Individuals To Succeed In Business." Together Sheri and Christina have put together an impressive line up of seminars to help those small businesses with the tools they need to succeed.
The Brighter Business Empower events are held the first Wednesday of each month starting in September, excluding July and December, at Cardel Theatre in Quarry Park. For 2 hours, between 3-5pm you'll have an opportunity to network with other business owners, and learn from the best professionals in their field. The first seminar is September 12th, Press Releases. What works, what doesn't, how to write one and who to send it to. It's a marketing tool that most companies don't know about.
The second series is October 14th. Sheri Bruneau from Get It Together will host Social Media. She'll take you through the maze of Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google +, and the latest craze Pintrest. Social Media is certainly a tool that, if used effectively, can help boost and generate interest in a company. Sheri will help you understand the importance of this new tool, and how to use it effectively and not waste your time.
And finally, the third series this year is November 14th with Tracey Agnew and Nathalie Wright, financial advisors and owners of Agnew Insurance Ltd., and Wright Insurance Agencies. Together, they say whether you run your business from an office or run it as a home-based business, insurance is a must. They will guide you and what you need and what you don't. Business owners without business insurance can be held personally responsible for damages and injuries they cause to a third party. And a personal policy such as a homeowner's policy does not cover business property or activity. These ladies know their stuff and want to share it with you.
These are just a few of the tools the Brighter Business Empower series of seminars will give you.

Macau Revenues Down Again, But Some See Signs Of Hope

Macau's gaming revenues are continuing their seemingly endless tumble, falling again in June to make it 13 straight months of decline for the Chinese enclave.
However, not all of the news coming out of Macau was bad for the casinos, suggesting that while the current trends are painful, there may be hope on the horizon that things could improve in the not-too-distant future.
First, though, there's the bad news.
Macau's Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau reported that casinos in the territory took in less than $2.2 billion in gaming revenue in June, down 36 percent compared to the same period a year earlier.
That is the lowest figure for Macau since November 2010.
Overall, annual gaming revenues are down about 37 percent in 2015 compared to the first six months of last year.
Incremental Improvement Provides Some Hope
Still, the June figures were slightly better than the projections of some analysts.
"Although a 36 percent year-over-year decline is far from healthy, we find it encouraging the theme of modest sequential comparison improvement remains on trend," said gaming analyst Steven Wieczynski of Stifel Nicolaus Capital Markets.
In other words, the fact that things have been slightly less terrible for Macau recently is a step in the right direction. There are other indications that revenues could start to tick back up this summer, too.
Gaming revenues were actually up over the last nine days of the month, which could be related to the start of the summer tourism season.
If those increases continue into July, the annual numbers could begin looking much better for Macau, especially since the last few months of 2014 were particularly brutal for the casinos there.
Relaxed Visitation Rules Could Encourage More Tourism
In addition, the Chinese government finally seems to be stepping in to help Macau a bit. As of Wednesday, visitation rules have been relaxed, and mainland Chinese residents can now visit Macau twice per month rather than twice per every 60 day period. The maximum length of any one stay has also increased from five days to seven.
That decision caused many casino stocks to surge this week. Four of five casino stocks listed in Hong Kong saw their biggest gains in the past four years, including MGM China, Wynn Macau, and Sands China.
Even if the actual impact of this decision is relatively small, it may signal a change in policy from the mainland Chinese government, which hurt Macau's gaming industry significantly with its anti-corruption policies that cut much of the money flow to the territory.
Analysts expect more supportive measures from China later in 2015, and even if none of these changes are dramatic, they could have a positive cumulative effect.
But not all of the news coming out of Macau is positive. The Macau government is introducing a full smoking ban in its legislature this week. That bill is likely to be passed later this year, and could be implemented as soon as early next year.
Based on the impact that a ban on smoking in mass market casino areas had, analysts believe that this new ban, which would expand to more private gaming areas, could similarly harm spending by high rollers, with some predicting a 10 to 15 percent reduction in revenues because of the smoking prohibition.
