Depp, Heard Face Uncertain Career Prospects

DENISE LAVOIE Thursday, 02 June 2022 10:06 AM EDT
A jury's finding that both Johnny Depp and Amber Heard were defamed during their long-running public dispute capped a lurid six-week trial that also raised questions about whether the two actors can overcome tarnished reputations.
The verdict handed down Wednesday in Virginia found that Depp had been defamed by three statements in an op-ed written by his ex-wife in which Heard said she was an abuse victim. The jury awarded him more than $10 million. Jurors also concluded that Heard was also defamed, by a lawyer for Depp who accused her of creating a detailed hoax surrounding the abuse allegations. She was awarded $2 million.
Depp had hoped the libel lawsuit would help restore his reputation. However, legal and entertainment experts said both actors' reputations have been damaged by ugly details about their brief marriage that came out during the televised trial watched by millions.
"Both of them will work again, but I think it will be a while before a major studio will consider them 'safe' enough to bet on," said former entertainment lawyer Matthew Belloni, who writes about the business of Hollywood for the newsletter Puck. "The personal baggage that was revealed in this trial was just too icky for a studio to want to deal with."
The case captivated viewers who watched gavel-to-gavel television coverage, including impassioned followers on social media who dissected the actors' mannerisms, their wardrobe choices and their use of alcohol and drugs.
Both performers emerge with unclear prospects. Depp, a three-time best actor Oscar nominee, was a bankable star until recent years, with credits including playing Capt. Jack Sparrow in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" films. However, he lost that role and was replaced in a "Fantastic Beasts" spinoff.
Heard's acting career has been more modest, and her only two upcoming roles are in a small film and the upcoming "Aquaman" sequel due out next year.
Eric Rose, a crisis management and communications expert in Los Angeles, called the trial a "classic murder-suicide" in terms of damage to both careers.
"From a reputation-management perspective, there can be no winners," he said. "They've bloodied each other up. It becomes more difficult now for studios to hire either actor because you're potentially alienating a large segment of your audience who may not like the fact that you have retained either Johnny or Amber for a specific project because feelings are so strong now."
Heard, who attended court Wednesday and was stoic while the verdict was read, said she's heartbroken by what she described as a setback for women in general.
"I'm even more disappointed with what this verdict means for other women. It's a setback. It sets back the clock to a time when a woman who spoke up and spoke out could be publicly humiliated. It sets back the idea that violence against women is to be taken seriously,'' she said in a statement posted on her Twitter account.
Heard's lawyer Elaine Bredehoft said on CBS Mornings that her client plans to file an appeal.
Depp, who was not in court Wednesday, said "the jury gave me my life back. I am truly humbled."
"I hope that my quest to have the truth be told will have helped others, men or women, who have found themselves in my situation, and that those supporting them never give up," he said in a statement posted to Instagram.
Depp sued Heard for libel in Fairfax County Circuit Court over a December 2018 op-ed she wrote in The Washington Post describing herself as "a public figure representing domestic abuse." The essay never mentioned his name.
The jury found in Depp's favor on all three of his claims relating to specific statements in the piece.
In evaluating Heard's counterclaims, jurors considered three statements by a lawyer for Depp who called her allegations a hoax. They found she was defamed by one of them, in which the lawyer claimed that she and friends "spilled a little wine and roughed the place up, got their stories straight," and called police.
While the case was ostensibly about libel, most of the testimony focused on whether Heard had been physically and sexually abused, as she claimed. Heard enumerated more than a dozen alleged assaults, including a fight in Australia — where Depp was shooting a "Pirates of the Caribbean" sequel — in which Depp lost the tip of his middle finger and Heard said she was sexually assaulted with a liquor bottle.
Depp said he never hit Heard and that she was the abuser, though Heard's attorneys highlighted years-old text messages Depp sent apologizing to Heard for his behavior as well as profane texts he sent to a friend in which Depp said he wanted to kill Heard and defile her dead body.
Brett Ward, a family law attorney in New York, said Depp made himself a more believable witness by admitting to drug and alcohol use and that he could be a difficult person. But he said Depp also ran the risk of making those moments more memorable to the public than his film work.
"He says he did this for his children. Having watched the whole trial, I don't think that he did any service to his children by airing all of this dirty laundry," Ward said in an interview.
"Whether this was worthwhile for Johnny Depp, we will know in five years if he reestablishes himself as an A-list Hollywood actor. And if he doesn't? I think he's made a terrible mistake because most people aren't going to remember his rather distinguished Hollywood career. They're going to remember this trial."

The David Roberts Slide collection is a collection of glass slides generously donated by David Roberts to the British Caving Library. It is believed that they originally came from his uncle and aunt, Mrs. and Mrs. Gilbert. Kath Gilbert was the Treasurer and Distribution Officer for the British Speleological Association, while Mr. J.C.Gilbert was the BSA Chairman. They were both active cavers, based in Derbyshire, and were involved in the original explorations of Lancaster Hole - indeed, Kath's Way is named after Mrs. Gilbert as it was she that originally identified the strongly draughting blockage. Some three years after Eli Simpson's death in 1962 they moved up to Skye. Kath Gilbert died in 2004, and the slides were donated to BCL by David Roberts in April 2012.
An interesting article about Mrs. Gilbert written by Peter and Julie Mohr appeared in the RRCPC Newsletter Volume 36 Number 3.
The photographs appear to have been taken in the late 1940s and early 1950s. Those in Lancaster Hole and Ease Gill Caverns were taken in the very early days of their exploration, and are interesting in that they shew what the popular passages looked like in the early days, as well as providing an insight into the equipment in use at the time. At least some were taken by Bob Leakey with George Cornes supplying the human element.
The collection is held at the British Caving Library. Further details may be obtained from the BCL Librarian, and the material may be inspected by prior arrangement at the BCL Library premises in Glutton Bridge.
A subset of the slides have been scanned and are available online at the BCRA Online Archive.


What is a photovoltaic or solar electric system? Solar electric or photovoltaic (PV) systems use the sun's energy to make electricity. PV technology produces direct current electricity by collecting electrons freed by the interaction between sunlight and the semiconductor materials in a PV cell.
Why should I consider buying a PV system? A PV system reduces or eliminates the amount of electricity you purchase from your utility or electric service provider. A PV system can save you money on your electricity bill and act as a hedge against future price increases. The electricity generated by your PV system is clean, renewable and reliable. You help your community by reducing the load on the utility grid and you can provide additional electricity for the grid when you generate more than you use during the day, when electricity demand is highest.
Do I have a good site for PV? Your site must have clear, unobstructed access to the sun. Buildings, trees or other vegetation should not shade your site. South-facing roof exposure is best, but roof facing east and west may be OK. If a rooftop is not available, your PV system can also be mounted on the ground..
What should the size of my PV system be? You can match the size of your system to your electricity needs and budget. The average household in California uses about 6,500 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per year. If your usage is typical of the average household, a system in the 3 to 4 kilowatt (kW) range would be adequate to meet most of your electricity needs.
To estimate the best system size for your home or business, examine your electricity usage for the last 12 months and apply this easy formula.
A system with a capacity of 1 kW can produce about 1750 KWh per year. Divide your annual electricity usage (in kWh per year) by 1750 kWh to get the system size (capacity in kilowatts) that would meet most of your electricity needs. If you want your PV system to meet half of your electricity needs, then you should size it to meet half of your annual electrical usage. Or you can offset only a small portion of your electricity bill with a single PV panel. If you size your system larger than your average electricity needs, for example to meet your highest electricity needs on summer afternoons, your system would generate more electricity than you could use during the rest of the year.
How much mounting space do I need? A small PV system can use as little as 50 square feet. A larger system, to meet the needs of a typical household, would use between 300 and 600 square feet. As a rule of thumb, 100 square feet of PV area produces 1 kilowatt of electricity.
Are there any special features I should consider? An inverter is needed to change the direct current (DC) power from the solar panels into alternating current (AC) electricity to power your electrical devices and to be compatible with the electric grid. Batteries can provide back-up power for your home or business in case of grid outages, but they also increase your costs.
How much does a PV system cost? Although many factors affect the cost, an average PV system costs from $ 9 to $ 10 dollars a watt, including installation, k or $18,000 to $20,000 for a 2 kW system.
Are there any incentives or rebates available? The California Energy Commission's Emerging Renewables Buy-down Account offers cash rebates on eligible PV systems. You can get a rebate of $4.50 per watt or up to 50 percent of the total eligible system cost, whichever is less. For example, for a 2 kW system costing $20,000 installed, the rebate amount is approximately $9,000 (the $4.50 per watt rebate applies because it is lower than 50 percent of the total cost).
Am I eligible for a rebate? If you live in the electricity service territory of Pacific Gas and Electric Company, Southern California Edison Company, San Diego Gas and Electric Company, or Bear Valley Electric Company, you are eligible for the Emerging Renewables Buy-down rebate. Either you or your system retailer can apply for the rebate.
Are there any financing programs? The best way to finance a PV system for your home is through a mortgage loan that includes a primary mortgage, second mortgage or home equity loan secured by your property. If mortgage financing is not available, look for other sources such as conventional bank loans. Another alternative to consider is a signature based on having a great credit history.
What do I need to know about connecting my PV system to the grid? You will need to enter into an interconnection Agreement with you utility. This agreement address the terms and conditions under which your system will be safely connected to the grid. The agreement also specifies the metering arrangements (called NET METERING). Net Metering allows you to "bank" any surplus electricity your system generates on the electric grid.
Excess electricity might be generated during the day when your system produces more electricity than you need. Your meter would simply run backwards to record the amount of electricity banked on the grid. You can use an equal amount of electricity later without incurring any additional cost. If you use more electricity from the grid than you have banked, your utility will charge you annually for the difference. (Please refer to the Net Metering FAQ sheet for more details.


Holi is a Hindu spring festival celebrated in India and Nepal, also known as the "festival of colours" or the "festival of love". Holi signifies the victory of good over evil, the arrival of spring, end of winter, and for many a festive day to meet others, play and laugh, forget and forgive, and repair broken relationships.
A celebration of the triumph of good over evil, Holi is one of the most popular ones in India, but has begun becoming a pain for the women in India. There's a phrase called "Bura na mano holi hai", which is often accompanied with inappropriate touching of women.
Holi is a beautiful festival but somehow women are wary of stepping out as they are vulnerable to being touched without their consent. Miscreants take advantage of this day and believe they have a license to touch a woman under the garb of 'bura na mano holi hai'.
The television commercial highlights this aspect in a very realistic and relatable fashion. Every woman would see herself in the situation of the protagonist. The brand urges all women to not hold back and stand up and resist somebody who tries to apply colour on her without her consent. The television commercial is to be supported by digital, outdoor and print mediums.
It's the first time a detergent brand has spoken about cleansing beyond clothes, and Ghadi totally nails the messaging. It's about time that everyone enjoys the festival in it's true spirit. After all, Holi hai!
The Ghadi Holi ad has so generated over 5 million views on YouTube and has been one of the most talked about ads in India during Holi.

在人类应对全球气候变化的挑战中,低碳城市逐渐成为低碳经济与低碳社会的空间聚焦点。文章从城市碳排放驱动因素、低碳城市循环与代谢、低碳城市空间规划、低碳城市环境管治等四方面系统归纳了国外低碳城市研究的内容和模型方法,并对LMDI方法、Hybrid-EIO-LCA 方法、CGE模型作了具体评述。可以认为,低碳城市研究在理论上,由可持续发展、循环经济转向低碳经济和社会论,由城市生态系统、共生城市、精明增长和公交导向细化为低碳社区的构建;在方法上,由单一计算转变到综合评估,由衍生方法借用转到低碳城市模型方法的提出;数据使用由估测数据转向明确的环境账户;空间尺度由城市个体向家庭、社区、园区、城市群等不同层面扩展;研究地域则从少数发达国家推广到发展中国家。基于低碳城市研究体系的不完备性和多学科交叉性、数据的不确定性、时空尺度的多样性等特点,当前研究应从城市共生和谐论出发,以微观尺度的调查数据为基础,综合利用现代空间信息技术,建立城市碳排放账户,对城市碳能源—经济—社会—环境(CEESE)系统的功能与机理、过程与控制以及关联与效应进行探索,创建低碳城市研究的理论与方法体系。

Responses to the challenge of global warming include research into the adoption of low-carbon approaches to resource use. Accordingly, low-carbon-city studies refer to documenting, among other things, the relative significance of factors driving the current increase in urban carbon emissions. Such studies refer to the cycle and metabolism of the hypothetical low-carbon city, the low-carbon-city planning, and low-carbon-city environmental governance that would be needed in implementation. These low-carbon-city studies have deployed a range of methods, such as the LMDI method, Hybrid-EIO-LCA method, and CGE. The emphasis has been put on the study of low-carbon city in terms of sustainable development and its relationship with low-carbon economy and society, and on the establishment of urban ecosystems to form the symbiotic city and to realize smart growth and transit-oriented development of the low-carbon communities.
Researchers from both economically developed and developing countries now notice that low-carbon-city research lacks attention to the comprehensive array of factors involved and that progress is limited by the interdisciplinary matters that must be dealt with, and the uncertainty attached to some of the available input data. Reconciliation of study results across a range of spatio-temporal scales is also a challenging issue. It is argued that it will be helpful to focus on the urban carbon energy-economy-society-environment system.

La Besbre è un fiume francese che attraversa i dipartimenti dellꞌAllier e della Loira. È un affluente, alla riva sinistra, della Loira.

Geografia
Di 106,38 km di lunghezza, la Besbre nasce dalle parti del "puy de Montoncel" (1287 m) nei monti della Madeleine, all'estremo sud-est del dipartimento dell'Allier, a 1185 m d'altitudine, a 400 metri a nord del puy de Montoncel (1287 m), nel comune di Lavoine.

Essa scorre globalmente da sud verso nord.

Confluisce nella Loira, proprio a sud di Saint-Aubin-sur-Loire (Saona e Loira) nel comune di Diou (Allier), a 212 metri di altitudine.

Comuni e cantoni attraversati
Nei due dipartimenti dell'Allier e della Loira, la Besbre attraversa ventitré comuni (22 nell'Allier e uno solo nella Loira: Saint-Priest-la-Prugne) e cinque cantoni:
 da monte a valle: Lavoine (sorgente), Saint-Priest-la-Prugne, Laprugne, La Chabanne, Saint-Clément, Le Mayet-de-Montagne, Nizerolles, Châtel-Montagne, Arfeuilles, Le Breuil, Saint-Prix, Lapalisse, Servilly, Varennes-sur-Tèche, Trézelles, Chavroches, Jaligny-sur-Besbre, Thionne, Châtelperron, Vaumas, Saint-Pourçain-sur-Besbre, Dompierre-sur-Besbre, Diou (confluenza)

In termini di cantoni, la Besbre nasce nel cantone di Le Mayet-de-Montagne, attraversa i cantoni di Saint-Just-en-Chevalet, Lapalisse, Jaligny-su-Besbre e confluisce nel cantone di Dompierre-sur-Besbre.

Patrimonio - Curiosità - Turismo

La « Maison Aquarium », a Jaligny-sur-Besbre, è uno spazio turistico, pedagogico e ludico che presenta la via acquatica e l'ambiente della Besbre.

Il patrimonio della valle e del bacino della Besbre è abbondante e vario. L'elenco che segue non è esauriente:

 Laprugne: castello della Chapelle e dei Petits-Herviers, sport invernali, punto culminante dei monti della Madeleine, ferrovia turistica.
 Châtel-Montagne: chiesa di Notre-Dame, capolavoro dell'arte romanica alverniate, datata dal XII secolo.
 Le Breuil: chiesa romanica di Notre-Dame con tombe di Alice del Breuil.
 Lapalisse: castello di La Palice (XII e XIII secolo, completato nei XV e XVI secoli in stile italiano), l'ospedale del XVII secolo è divenuto Hôtel des Postes, le case a colombaia del XV secolo. Laghi nella regione.

 Jaligny-sur-Besbre: castello del Rinascimento con porte del XIV secolo, castello del Lonzat con parco, torri e cinta del Medioevo, chiesa di SantꞌIppolito con coro dellꞌXI secolo e superbe statue dei secoli XV e XVI. Vi si può praticare tutta una gamma di sport: pesca, equitazione, canoa-kayak (location), VTT.
 Saint-Pourçain-sur-Besbre: castello de Beauvoir dei secoli XIV e XV con parco e giardini, castello di Thoury dei secoli XIV e XV egualmente con bastioni, torre di guardia, cortine, chiesa di Saint-Pourçain romano-gotica, museo della caccia, Palazzo de la Miniatura (mini-stazione SNCF), giardino zoologico incluso nel parco di attrazioni: parco del Pal (aperto nellꞌaprile 2007). Laghetti e vigne.
 Dompierre-sur-Besbre: porto fluviale sul canale laterale alla Loira, monastero trappista di Sept-Fons, castello del XVIII secolo, le sue case a graticcio. Numerosi laghi nei dintorni.

La pesca
Lo specchio d'acqua di Saint-Clément, esteso su 30 ettari, presenta un grande interesse per i pescatori: vi si pratica in particolare la pesca alla sandra. Nel bacino dellꞌAlta Besbre si pratica la pesca alle trote. In questo settore, lo Sichon offre parimenti percorsi molto belli fino alle porte di Vichy.

Miniera d'uranio
Nel comune di Saint-Priest-la-Prugne, una miniera di uranio ha permesso lo sfruttamento in superficie di  tonnellate di minerale per  tonnellate d'uranio dal 1957 al 1971, e in profondità,  tonnellate di minerale per  tonnellate d'uranio a 410 metri di profondità. Questa ha necessitato di un grande bacino di 4,5 milioni di m³ per decantare gli efflussi dell'officina chimica vicina sbarrando la valle con l'aiuto di una diga in terra. La Commissione di ricerche e di informazioni indipendenti sulla radioattività (CRIIRAD) e il Collettivo dei Bois Noirs hanno congiuntamente messo in luce una contaminazione per molte decine di chilometri del fiume Besbre.

The Englishman who manufactured smiles
Happiness is something very precious to human lives. Our present world and the people living in it have been living a life of fast technology and the expectation has always been fast and better things. In this fast life people spend most of their time earning. Hence the word like depression and sadness is very frequent factors in the day today's life of present human beings. A moment of smile can heal the hours of pain. Such thing is very rare in the present world but still few people are expert in involving smiles to human lives. These people are known as a comedian. They make us laugh hiding their pain. They give us moments of healing hiding their moments of sufferings. These people are the people who manufacture smiles and give them to the world. One such brilliant mind was Bernard Manning known for his comic timings, made thousands laugh their stomach out in the past. During his days, he healed people with smiles.
This English gentleman, who was born on 13 August 1930, was a comedian and he owned a nightclub. For the people who were present in his time, he was a simple guy who speaks about different communities and races and still does not offend anyone. Although little didn't like all of them but he believed that jokes are meant to laugh. After his blooming career in the night club and enough fan base Bernard Manning moved to television in the seventies appearing in some shows like the "The Comedians and The Wheeltappers and Shunters Social Club". Contriversies was something which constantly associated with him. Some people of that age did not approve his jokes about the ethnic minorities and this also became a serious issue on his later part of television career. Although Bernard Manning meant only jokes some people were against him and this was usual for every personality these days. He was best known for his comic timing for his jokes about race and religion for.
Although there were many people who discarded Bernard Manning jokes but there were many more people who appreciated his jokes. His personal life was not that sound as his wife Vera died of a heart attack at the age of 57 and his only son chose to move away from his house. So Bernard Manning lived with his mother. A couple of his brothers were also dead by that time. Tragedy was never seen in his face and his jokes were working much more than a mask to his face. The latter part of his life Bernard Manning was suffering from Kidney problems and one June 18th 2007 he left this material life leaving behind a name that still makes people smile at times.
Bernard Manning was an admirable comedian of his age. He performed to make people smile and heal their lives of sorrows. His idea of race and religion was completely different from others. Those who got this idea they got their share of laugh. His jokes on the different people and their walks of life are still used by many contemporary days comedian. Bernard Manning was the Englishman who manufactured smiles'.

Despite Bitcoin Cash ABC looking like it will win the BCash civil war with notable support from John McAfee and Bitstamp, the ugliness of the sideshow could actually have a bullish impact on Bitcoin (BTC) price.
Yesterday, John McAfee came across as if he had just binge-watched several 'Game of Thrones' box-sets as he pledged his allegiance to Jihan Wu and Roger Ver's vision for Bitcoin Cash (BCash).
I see you are going to war. I am the oldest warrior still standing on the battlefield… if I can serve you, you have my sword and my loyalty.
The main protagonist in this war would be Craig Wright pushing 'Satoshi's Vision' of Bitcoin with his Bitcoin Cash SV fork. Needless to say, Wright did took this latest development in stride.
Dubbing McAfee 'McFee' (a reference to paid ICO endorsements), he accused him of being a conman and a scammer.
Now, Bitcoin Cash ABC appears to be winning and is over 50 blocks ahead at press time, according to data from Coin.dance.
In addition, other versions like Bitcoin Unlimited and Craig Wright's Bitcoin SV appear to not be mining blocks at this time. This also implies that three new coins could emerge if these other chains survive.
Meanwhile, Binance announced that it will not only support trading of these potential new tokens but will also retain the tickers of BCHABC and BCASV.
So what does this Bitcoin Cash squabble have to do with Bitcoin? Well, touting itself as the 'real' Bitcoin, the Bitcoin Cash (or BCash) that prides itself on cheap, reliable and quick transactions has been anything but.
With even Dogecoin beating it at its own game, this latest 'upgrade' could prove to be the nail in the coffin for "Satoshi's Vision" as the network has been unusable for the past few days. It may also force the Bitcoin Cash community to rethink their policy of scheduled hard-fork upgrade and address mining centralization.
In other words, there will be less confusion (if there is still any) about which is the 'real' Bitcoin, at least according to Binance CEO, Changpeng Zhao.
As of today, Bitcoin Cash price 00 has erased it's pre-fork gains and is currently trading at the lowest price against BTC since October 2017.
Interestingly, one of the events that possibly served as last year's catalysts was a Bitcoin Cash 'upgrade' that removed EDA (estimated difficulty adjustment), which was not only destabilizing the BCH network, but also affecting Bitcoin's hash rate.
Worthy to keep in mind is that Bitcoin (BTC) price 00 was hovering at around these levels exactly a year ago as it began its historic bull-run.
Thus, last year's 'upgrade' that occurred on November 13th, 2017, not only stabilized BCH but also sent the BTC hash rate to record highs as it more profitable to this day to mine bitcoin. This saw BTC price go to $10,000 by the end of the month.
Will this year be any similar? Much like last year, which saw recognition by Wall Street with the launch of Bitcoin futures in December, there are plenty of events on the horizon that could reverse the market in an instant.
Undoubtedly, all eyes will be on the launch of Bakkt next month as the next potential spark that could wake up Bitcoin price.
What are your thoughts on BCash ABC, as well as McAfee's take? Let us know in the comments below.

Reflex shooting is a demanding discipline, as the target needs to be acquired quickly in the sights. Accurate sighting without parallax or eye relief limitations are also vital to achieving that top score or hunting success. Whether you are a hunter, recreational shooter or competitive marksman, the range of RED DOT reflex sights offers a great choice for you. All of them offer a 1x magnficiation. Starting with the NRD25, a low profile 25 mm objective sight through to the 50mm objective lens NRD50. All Nikko Stirling red dot sights are suitable for use on high-powered rifles, shotguns and handguns.


ROCKWOOL stone wool achieves its insulating properties by 'capturing' the air between the fibers, so that virtually no convection takes place. Because ROCKWOOL insulation only contains natural air and no other gases such as blowing agents, the thermal performance does not change due to gases diffusing from the products – not even if longer periods like the total lifetime of a building are considered.
Insulation products in general limit heat transfer, so that heat remains on the warmer side of the product with only a limited amount of heat being transferred to the colder side. In general, heat can be transferred via conduction, radiation and convection. In ROCKWOOL stone wool products conduction and radiation are the most important ones. Heat conduction is taking place when energy is transferred within a stone wool fibre, whereas radiation is occurring inside the air gaps between the stone wool fibres.

Q: Need to close Debugger and restart before saved data can be read I can open a daily list of school-reservations through a search with a monthcalendar.
The form below shows me the result as a list of schools in the center-grid.
Form with a list of schools that made a reservation http://www.iwva.be/images/bezoekers/Schools.jpg
This is the code I use to load the data to put into the grid (this is before noon)
var vReservationAM = (from oReservation in clsApplication._oDBConnection.tblReservations
                              where oReservation.StartTime >= mcCalendar.SelectionRange.Start.Date
                              && oReservation.StartTime < mcCalendar.SelectionRange.Start.Date.AddHours(12)
                              orderby oReservation.StartTime ascending
                              select oReservation);

For every school, I can see what kind of activities they asked for by clicking on the magnifying glass at the beginnning of the row. I then get the list of activities the school has asked for (see form below).
Form with a list of activities per school http://www.iwva.be/images/bezoekers/Activities.jpg
When I open an acitivity I can change the data and it will be changed in the activity-list as well. So all works fine...except for one strange thing.
When I add a new activity (see form below) it's not getting showed in the activity-list (see form above).
Form to add an activity http://www.iwva.be/images/bezoekers/AddActivity.jpg
Even when I make a new search with the monthcalendar I can only see the activities that were already saved a previous time.
But when I look at the database I can see that the new activity has been saved.
I have to close my debugger and open it again before the data is being loaded and showed in the grid.
What can be the cause of this?

A: Found it:
For filling up the grid with activities I ran this loop:
foreach (var oReservationDetail in _oReservationObject.ReservationData.tblReservationDetails)

I though the relational link in the database would always retrieve the latest data. Appearantely it does not. Once the link has been established it uses the same data.
I replaced it with this:
var vActivities = (from oReservationDetails in clsApplication._oDBConnection.tblReservationDetails
                           where oReservationDetails.ReservationID == _oReservationObject.ReservationData.ID
                           orderby oReservationDetails.StartTime ascending
                           select oReservationDetails);

foreach (var oReservationDetail in vActivities)
{
    fill the grid
}

Facts about Aliso Viejo
Aliso Viejo is a city in the San Joaquin Hills of southern Orange County, California. It had a population of 47,823 as of the 2010 census, up from 40,166 as of the 2000 census. It became Orange County's 34th city on July 1, 2001, the only city in Orange County to be incorporated since 2000. It is bordered by the cities of Laguna Beach on the west and southwest, Laguna Hills on the east, Laguna Niguel on the southeast, and Laguna Woods on the north.
The planned community of Aliso Viejo's original 6,600 acres were once part of the 26,000-acre Moulton Ranch, owned by the Moulton family, who took title in the 1890s to land originally granted to Juan Avila by the Mexican government in 1842. Over the years, portions of the ranch were sold and became Leisure World, Laguna Hills and Laguna Niguel. In 1976, the Mission Viejo Company purchased the remaining 6,600 acres to create a new planned community – Aliso Viejo – with a master plan for 20,000 homes for a planned population of 50,000. The master plan was approved by the Orange County in 1979, and homes were first offered for sale in March 1982. Aliso Viejo's first family moved in that November. As part of the project, 2,600 acres were dedicated to Orange County as part of the Aliso and Wood Canyons Wilderness Park, and 800 acres were set aside for local parks, recreation, schools and community facilities. The Aliso Viejo Community Association (AVCA) was set up to manage the local parks and community open space. It was the first community-wide association of its kind in California and has the unique ability to provide a full-range of community services and facilities.
Aliso Viejo was the first planned community in California to plan a balance between the projected resident work force and the number of projected jobs within its borders. Pacific Park, the centrally located 900-acre business park and town center, was expected to ultimately provide more than 22,000 jobs. Every home in Aliso Viejo was located about 1 1/2 miles from Pacific Park, to encourage live-and-work opportunities.

Joe and Anthony Russo, the brother directing team behind Marvel's Captain America: Civil War, have shared a new, innocent-looking behind-the-scenes video that happens to include a clip from the film.
In the video, which was posted to their Facebook page, Joe Russo swings the camera around to focus on the various people he has on his creative team, like special effects supervisors and executive producers. While focusing on the sound mixers, however, he leaves the camera tilted just enough that you can see the part of the film they're working on.
Posted by The Russo Brothers on Tuesday, March 15, 2016
In the clip, the Avengers and other superheroes have been gathered in a board room and are instructed they can no longer carry out their duties as heroes unless they reveal their identities. It's a crucial turning point in the comic the film is being loosely adapted from.
Marvel recently released a new trailer for the film, which gave audiences their first look at Tom Holland's Spider-Man. Captain America: Civil War hits theaters May 6.

Tiberius Coin Issuance Delayed by High Credit Card Fees
by 99Crypto on October 10, 2018 Read in
Tiberius Group AG, which is a Swiss asset management company that also engages in commodities trading, announced that it has postponed the launch of its new cryptocurrency until December, due to high fees from credit card companies. The currency, which was announced last month and will be called the Tiberius Coin, is said to be tied to various precious and industrial metals, including gold, platinum, copper, aluminum, nickel, cobalt and tin. The company believes that, by tying the currency to a wide range of metals, the currency will be more stable and therefore more attractive to investors. The Tiberius Coin officially launched on October 1, and the company — through its Tiberius Technology Ventures AG subsidiary — actually processed $1 million worth of sales. But the credit card fees on these transactions were unexpectedly high. They were so high, in fact, that the company says that it would be unable to process an order of $15 million. In a blog post on Tuesday, the company said that they are currently negotiating with a variety of credit card processors to create acceptable payment gateways for their customers, and in the meantime they are working on improving their platform. They also indicated that any customer who purchased the cryptocurrency during the initial launch would receive a full refund within the next 30 days. This is not the first time that credit card companies and cryptocurrencies have clashed. This past February, a number of U.S. banks — including Citigroup, Bank of America and J. P. Morgan Chase — announced that their credit card customers would no longer be able to purchase cryptocurrencies with their cards, due to a variety of reasons. Though Citigroup indicated that it was willing to review this policy in the future. Then, in June, U.S. bank Wells Fargo announced that they also would not allow their customers to buy digital currencies with their credit cards. They said that they were doing this so that they could avoid a number of particular risks related to cryptocurrency use.

Authoritarian Giuliani?
John Judis describes what he sees as Giuliani's distinctively Catholic worldview.
Catholic thinkers do not see liberty as an end in itself, but as a means—a "natural endowment"—by which to achieve the common good. For that to happen, individuals have to be encouraged to use their liberty well; and that is where authority comes into play. Authority, embodied by law and the state, encourages—at times, forces—free individuals to contribute to the common good. Or, to put it in Aristotelian terms: Authority—by creating a just order—encourages liberty over license.
In truth, this strikes me as sufficiently close to non-Catholic strains of republican thinking as to be not-so-distinctive. But Judis's point, that Giuliani's understanding of freedom represents a departure from extreme antipaternalism, is well taken. I was struck by another passage.
Asked in the question period to explain what he meant, Giuliani said, "Authority protects freedom. Freedom can become anarchy." Norman Siegel, the then-executive director of the New York Civil Liberties Union, said afterward that he was "floored" by Giuliani's definition of liberty and authority. But anyone who studied philosophy at a Catholic college would not have been surprised by Giuliani's words.
Of course, Siegel fails to recognize that he is also an heir to a distinctive intellectual tradition, which in this case extends only as far back as the intellectual overreaction to totalitarianism, vividly described by David Ciepley in his Liberalism in the Shadow of Totalitarianism. The same might be said of Judis, but I think Judis, my many disagreements with him notwithstanding, is America's best intellectual journalist, so my guess is that he's well aware of this. Moreover, Judis even goes so far as to offer a mild defense of "Christian Aristotelianism," which he sees as undergirding Mario Cuomo's liberalism. Some would call this damning with faint praise. I tend to think it's a sincere compliment.
The article goes on to offer a damning critique of Giuliani that is well worth a read. I do wonder, is the central problem with US society an excess of authority? Certainly the case can be made that the Bush administration has been overzealous in its expansion of executive power. But surely this is only one piece of a larger cultural puzzle, one that involves a steady erosion of certain kinds of authority that most of us value. More on this to come.

Q: How to enable early binding of VBA object variable to COM classes created in .NET I seem to be having trouble getting my COM class library (.NET-based) to support early binding.
I am creating a class library in VB.NET 2003 for use in Office 2003 VBA (and later for Office 2010). Documentation @ StackOverflow and elsewhere has brought me to this bit of code:
    Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices

    <InterfaceType(ComInterfaceType.InterfaceIsDual), _
    ComVisible(True), _
    Guid("<some valid GUID>")> _
    Public Interface _TestCOMClass
        Function Test() As String
    End Interface

    <ClassInterface(ClassInterfaceType.None), _
    ComVisible(True), _
    Guid("<another valid GUID>"), _
    ProgId("TestCOMDLL.TestCOMClass")> _
    Public Class TestCOMClass
        Implements _TestCOMClass
        Public Function Test() As String Implements _TestCOMClass.Test
            Return "Test value"
       End Function
    End Class

The solution is set to compile with COM Interop. It builds succesfully and the ProgID then appears in the References list in VBA.
I use this in VBA by setting the appropriate reference and then declaring variables of the appropriate type and instantiating my class. Here is where it gets mysterious.
    Dim EarlyBird As TestCOMDLL.TestCOMClass
    Dim LateBird  As Object

    Set EarlyBird = New TestCOMDLL.TestCOMClass
    ' This is my preferred instantiation method, but results in a
    ' "Does not support Automation or expected interface" error

    Set EarlyBird = CreateObject("TestCOMDLL.TestCOMClass")
    ' This is my 2nd best instantiation method,
    ' but results in a Type Mismatch error

    Set LateBird = CreateObject("TestCOMDLL.TestCOMClass")
    MsgBox LateBird.Test
    ' This works, but has all the disadvantages of late binding

So I can reference my library, declare object variables of the appropriate type, and instantiate my class, but I cannot assign the instantiated object reference to my typed variable, only to a variable of type Object. Also, instantiating the New keyword appears to be supported (Intellisense offers the library and class as options), but fails at runtime.
What is lacking in my VB.NET code or build settings that keeps early binding from working?
PS: Another way of putting my problem is that I've tried the solution in this StackOverflow thread and found that what AnthonyWJones says

You can also reference the dll and use early binding:

is not true in my case... :-(

New Homeland Security Hub Poised for Nuthouse?
D.C. officials are hoping President Obama will help fund a huge homeland security hub they plan to build on the east campus of St. Elizabeths, a former insane asylum in Washington. According to the Washington Business Journal, the plan is to meet the specs of the president's Sustainable Communities Initiative, a program with $100 million devoted to assisting transportation, economic development, and sustainability in urban planning efforts across the country.
If officials have their way, WBJ reports, the 173-acre site on the east campus will include 4 million sq.-ft. of development in total, with space for a domestic security university, a tech incubator, subcontractor office space, Federal Emergency Management Agency office space, and work force housing.
While it does seem logical to keep all domestic homeland security facilities as close as possible, that by no means guarantees that the city will receive funding from the national government to make it happen. The city will have to compete with other local jurisdictions through the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments, who will match 20 percent of whatever grant is offered.
