CM takes on Modi for 'refusing' to meet him to discuss drought
Published On : 11 Dec 2016	| Reported By : Courtesy: DHNS	| Pic On: photo credit: DHNS
Bengaluru, DHNS: Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Saturday described Prime Minister Narendra Modi's refusal to give him an appointment to discuss drought in the state as "against democratic principles".
He told reporters after garlanding the statue of S Nijalingappa on his birth anniversary at Vidhana Soudha that he wanted to apprise Modi on the severe drought in the state. The Centre's help is necessary to provide relief to people affected by drought. But the Prime Minister refused to give an appointment, he charged.
Crops worth around Rs 17,000 crore have been damaged due to drought. The state is entitled to Rs 4,722 crore aid according to the Centre's guidelines. Karnataka is witnessing severe drought for the second consecutive year. The water level in all reservoirs is low. The Centre should extend a special grant to the state government to help it cope with the situation, he added.
Besides, Siddaramaiah said he wanted to apprise Modi on the Mahadayi river water sharing issue. The Karnataka legislature recently held a detailed discussion on the issue and passed a resolution, he added.
'Procedure not followed'
BJP state president B S Yeddyurappa, however, took exception to Siddaramaiah's comments and accused him of not following procedures to meet the prime minister. The appointment with the prime minister should be sought much in advance, he added.
The chief minister should have made proper preparations for meeting the prime minister. It is not proper to seek an appointment at such a short notice. "The chief minister should do away with his habit of blaming Modi unnecessarily. We (BJP leaders) are ready to extend all co-operation to the state government in the interest of the state," he added.
BJP MP Shobha Karandlaje accused Siddaramaiah of not being serious in running the administration. The chief minister recently held a meeting with MPs of Karnataka in Delhi only as a formality. He had not made any preparations for the meeting, he charged.

About Tikamgarh:
Coming into existence for the first time in 2008 as per the Delimitation Commission's Order, the Tikamgarh parliamentary constituency is one of the 29 Lok Sabha seats allotted to the central Indian state of Madhya Pradesh. The Tikamgarh Parliamentary constituency (constituency number 6) has a total of 1,209,553 electorates out of which 557,437 are females and 652,116 are males according to Election Commission of India 2009 reports.
With right Vidhan Sabha segments, namely Tikamgarh, Niwari, Jatara, Khargapur, Chhatarpur, Prithvipur, Maharajpur and Bijawar, this Lok Sabha seat is reserved for candidates belonging to the Scheduled Castes.
It is spread over the entire district of Tikamgarh and parts of the Chhatarpur District. Before the delimitation of the parliamentary and assembly constituencies in 2008, all the assembly segments except Prithvipur, which now belongs to the Tikamgarh parliamentary constituency, were part of the erstwhile Khajuraho Parliamentary constituency.
Economically, both the districts of Tikamgarh and Chhatarpur are dependent on government funds, having been recognized as backward by the Ministry of Panchyati Raj. The total number of electorates in the Tikamgarh constituency is 1,207,039, as per the 2009 Lok Sabha election data.

This is a bi-partisan effort of Libertarians & Republicans. Democrats are invited to make it a tri-partisan cause. The event is promoted on social media, here.


FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — In the end, it was a contest, but not much of one. Elizabeth Warren defeated incumbent Scott Brown handily, and with a lot of time to spare on what promises to be a long evening. She won because, in the end, she was a superior candidate who ran a superior race. In 2010, Senator McDreamy picked up a 7-10 split. He won a freak election against a terrible opponent in which he ran a superb campaign. It's hard to remember now, because of the clumsy, angry campaign he ran for re-election, but he went through the 2010 campaign without a single mistake. His commercials were terrific, his persona likable. He was terrific in the debates, and he was tremendously focused every time Martha Coakley, his hapless opponent, made a mistake, large or small, and she made a lot of them. He won that seat as squarely as it ever was won by Ted Kennedy.
But this time, he found himself up against someone who had a bit of history on her shoulder. There will be a lot of talk in the coming days about how Warren managed to hang the national Republican party around Brown's neck, and she did. But, more to the point, she ran as though she already knows what kind of a senator she wants to be. She ran as though she knew exactly the kind of hell she plans to raise down there. She ran as though she had some kind of idea of how to fill out a great office. For his part, in an almost perfect counterpoint, Brown made himself look small. He made himself look cheap. He ran a campaign of tawdry invective and unfunny laff-lines. Part of electing a senator is sizing people up to the dimensions of the office. Only one of these candidates could win by that metric, and the right one did.
To me, the most revelatory moment came in the last of their debates, when Warren, asked about the war in Afghanistan, said simply,"It's time to get out now." No qualifications. No relying on the generals. No crawfishing. Out. Now. A few weeks later, I was riding around with her and I told her that, as far as I knew, she was the only Democratic candidate in a contested race who has said that simple thing as plainly as she did. She popped her eyes at me in the way that she does.
"There was no other answer," she said, as though being asked to explain why she had come to start breathing that morning. Oh, dear Jesus, she's going to cause so many people so much trouble down there. She can fill that office right up to the ceiling.

Nebraska Spring Football Position Breakdown: Linebackers | KRVN Radio
Nebraska Spring Football Position Breakdown: Linebackers
BY Evan Jones | April 6, 2019
Home › News › Regional Sports
KRVN Photo-Evan Jones
Last year, we saw vast improvements from the Blackshirt defense, even though the Big Red struggled, going 4-8. One of the more noticeable positions of improvement was the linebackers. This group showed their ability to attack the run, stop the pass reasonably well, and rush the passer as well. But in all three of those areas, the Huskers will look to make improvements.
The one athlete who didn't have many holes in his game, senior inside linebacker Mohammed Barry. Barry was an All-Big Ten Third-Team member, selected by the media, and he had quite the season. He started all 12 games and totaled 112 tackles. Before last season, he had just 44 career tackles. This 100-tackle season was the first time that a Husker has gotten to that number since 2014. Barry does a fantastic job of play recognition and attacking the ball. He was by far the most consistent player on the defensive side of the football. Barry just loves to play football and you can tell that because he is all gas, no brakes.
Junior Will Honas will look to bounce back after a knee injury and he has a great opportunity to make plays for the Huskers this season. Honas played in just four games, so he was able to redshirt with the new rules in effect. Honas showed some flashes with 15 tackles on the season and he too has great play recognition from the inside linebacker.
Collin Miller will also look to improve off of solid sophomore campaign as he has seen time at the inside linebacker position. Miller played in all 12 games last year and showed the ability to be versatile. He totaled 17 tackles last season and one tackle for loss. Miller will look to take the next step for the Huskers and become a player that can be on the field more often.
Looking at the outside linebacker position for the Big Red, there are plenty of serviceable players who will fit the bill for them. Tyrin Ferguson enters his senior year looking to put together a full season of production as he has battled injuries throughout his career. Ferguson totaled 36 tackles last season in eight games. If he can remain healthy Ferguson could post 50 or more tackles for the Huskers.
Senior Alex Davis looks to break out this season for the Huskers. He's the perfect size for this defense and the type linebacker they are looking for. He stands at 6'5 255 pounds, but it hasn't all clicked for him. He played in all 12 games but had just five tackles. There are discussions that he could be utilized as a pass rusher for the Huskers, but we will see how the Big Red decides to utilize him.
JoJo Domann was a player that came along nicely for the Huskers late in the season and looks to carry that into his junior campaign. Domann is fairly lean for the linebacker spot at 6'1 225 pounds, but he adds an element of speed and also pass coverage. He battled injury for four games, but when he was healthy and seeing the field, the impact was there. He finished the season with 19 tackles and a sack. Domann also showed a great nose for the ball with two forced fumbles, broke up a couple of passes, and a fumble recovery. He has an opportunity for a monster season.
There may not be a Husker linebacker with more upside than sophomore Caleb Tannor. Tannor isn't the biggest guy in the world weighing just 210 pounds, but his speed is phenomenal. He had just 10 tackles as a true freshman, but he could be a real difference maker this season.
Other players in the linebacker room that could see the field include senior Jacob Weinmaster, junior Quayshon Alexander, junior Pernell Jefferson, sophomore Breon Dixon, redshirt freshman Tate Wildeman, true freshman Garrett Nelson, Jackson Hannah, and Nick Henrich.

Someone sent me a link to the Royal Opera House's app the other day (http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/royal-opera-house/id449056230?mt=8), interesting – does all the things an app should do i.e. presents content, listings, allows you to buy tickets (to a degree).
I then did a bit of research into the app developer, CloudTix, it would seem they have developed very similar (the same) app for a number of arts organisations. Further research confirmed my hunch that this is a white-label product, specifically for organisations using the Tessitura ticketing system – details here http://cloudtix.com/.
This chimed with a thought I had the other day (quite possibly whilst at the AMA Conference). Why can't this approach by picked up more widely? Ultimately the requirements for many arts organisations are, when it comes to an app, whilst not identical, very similar in function at least e.g. sell a ticket, display event listings, deliver content, allow user to share/engage. When it comes to the slightly more complex issue of selling a ticket there are only a certain number of ticketing systems that are widely used – develop something that does the basics well, can connect with the 'main' ticketing systems and is developed for platforms other than just bloody Apple devices (Android's market share is almost 39% at the last check compared to 18% for the iPhone).
Surely a project like this, funded by the Arts Council, would remove a lot of the fear-factor for arts organisations when it comes to developments such as this. Apps are expensive, they are easy to get wrong and to do them properly you need to develop for multiple platforms (i would say at least Android and iOS). A properly, carefully developed white-label solution could be relatively easily rolled out throughout the sector and allow organisations to properly consider, or at least start to consider, the explosion in the mobile web. Even better – make it a true open source project, properly engage with the digital community and get something that starts by doing the basics well and gets better and better without turning into a black hole for funding.
I still don't believe that apps are the be all and end all, it's just as (probably more) important to consider how your digital offering (i.e. website) is delivered to mobile devices. There needs to be a recognition that you cannot just deliver the same site to a desktop size screen as you do to a smartphone, the same content – sure – but not the same design and probably not with the same information hierarchy. My preferred route is carefully considered responsive design.
Interesting post. There are platforms out there for all of this. It just needs someone to bring them together.
Check out our ticketing software offering: http://www.tickettailor.com. This has mobile friendly checkout pages for buying tickets, and facebook integration.
Well said ! Totally common sense approach to sharing basic resources would be a huge benefit to many organisations if not the sector as a whole. I know of at least 3 app projects that have been given separate funding as I write.
My opinion is that while a spend on a dedicated mobile web site may be useful if the funds are there, an app that can be built upon and expanded means that once in the customers pocket (or device) it can be a tool that potentially also generates further engagement as well as delivering bottom line results.
The challenge of getting your app on peoples devices is similar to getting them to visit your web site (ok, maybe slightly harder) but it can also be targeted at an audience who are not currently attending live culture events by showing them video or whatever creative content one can imagine and afford to produce.
The two lines framing this now seem to be the social and the technical. I think one of the reasons that every major social network or online service has an app is that users are becoming lazy to type in that irksome URL (why so many people just use Google even if they know the URL) and indeed why should they when most apps give you fresh content every time they launch. No one needs to remember an address or navigate through unwanted information, it's super-specific. I don't have any data on it, but I suspect apps are stickier than www too.
Technically, we're obviously in a time of very rapid evolution of mobile devices and a field of three platforms (If we're generous toward Blackberry – I wouldnt write them off just yet) But this is expensive for everyone and confusing for customers. Cross platform authoring tools are beginning to emerge and I think they will develop into good-enough solutions. Bit of a tangent, but look at the Unity game engine – the authoring tool outputs to iOS, Android, Win or Mac Desktop AND an embeddable web player.
The CloudTix app was actually developed by Pop, a US software agency, who bought in a co-op of 10 launch partners to co-fund the development of the first version. So it's not exactly white label in the purest sense of the word, but I suppose it's close. In a way, all the founding partners helped seed fund the development of the app, which I believe is now being sold on to other people who want to take it.
When I was at the ROH I spent ages trying to push through a white label video player, that I wanted to partner with some other arts organisations to commission and make, but the biggest stumbling block was actually each organisation's weird specific requirements that meant they weren't quite ready for sharing. Everyone had some specific and circuitous system for account management or similar that meant that the requirements alone would have costs tens of thousands to develop, when in essence we were after a pretty straightforward out-of-the-box video player. I think things have moved on a bit since then, though, and I think that ACE would probably be much more supportive of a similar sort of move now – might even be worth a submission to the next round of the R&D fund?
Anyway, yes, failure to do that is exactly what prompted me to do Culture Hack. We now (as Caper) are working on one or two open source cultural projects, where the code will be posted to Git Hub and made available to anyone who wants to use it. Also, I hope that Happenstance http://happenstanceproject.com/) might lead to some small shareable things.
it would be so encouraging if ACE gave some demonstrable support to this sort of actually collaborative/long-term/capacity-building thing, but they don't seem to quite 'get it' yet, or maybe that's just the cynic in me. it still feels all slightly tokenistic and misunderstood at present.
Whilst native apps are super useful (I strongly believe in it for one of my sites, but support it with mobile first web solutions) there are inherent problems in this model as it pertains the situation you mention.
For me, a mobile first, progressive enhancement (hat tip @lukew) white label approach, perhaps on a SaaS basis, would be better.
Common use cases could be "widgitized" but allow for custom changes (like payment gateways etc) and all the while, any core changes could be rolled out to all sites, immediately.
No 30% cut for Apple, either, so the money stays in the organisations who need it most.
I guess this argument can be expanded into the realm of the website too though. Why spend x amount on a new website, built specifically for your needs (whether bespoke or using open source software), when you can go out and 'lease' a licensed product for a significantly reduced outlay.
The problem being, you will then be paying a recurring license fee for a product that is completely out of your hands. Should the worst happen and the product maker fold, or decide to take a "different direction" you are left with a product that at best remains working but stagnent and at worst non-operational. A small issue if you are a large private company, but a very big issue if you are a part public funded organisation / charity with a big investment in the product.
For me, this comes down to ownership at the end of the day, and if something is branded up, representing my organisation I would want to know I have 100% control over every aspect of the product and it's future.
From the other side however, I am surprised that so few companies have implemented a white label app model. Maybe Apple's restrictions on the app having to provide a product/service that is not already accessible via other means on the device (eg simply webviewing your mobile site), has prevented the large scale role out of the exact same application with differing skins for companies in the same industry.
Good to see this roll on a bit since earlier in the week.
If we put selling tickets aside for a moment – in my opinion one of the major challenges for arts orgs is coming to terms with reaching people who don't yet want to buy a ticket. We have the pleasure of being largely steered by people who have been brought up with the notion of the 'magic of theatre', the special seat that you can only sit on for 120 minutes on a particular day of the week, if you pay .
Put that thinking in a digital context: you can only use Facebook/ Search on Google/Watch MTV/YouTube/Vimeo if you pay per view – It's not going to fly and I don't think we should be constrained by a Box Office approach to digitally engaging our audiences with quality art or performance either.
I'm totally up for suggesting both of my two employers as collaborators in a funding bid for a code level shared app framework. I've just had the pleasure of gaining ACE funding for an art-project app, which will produce licensable location-based trail tech (http://www.dancinoxford.co.uk/4step.aspx) so something that can grow from that _and_ be a sales platform is so worthwhile.
I think that really there are two equally valid viewpoints here, which is more important?
and as much as we would like think that these two things can be smashed together with some sort of really well designed mobile site or app, the reality is that they *probably* require very different approaches.
some really quick thoughts re the second 'need' (i.e. reach new audiences) – I think, as we have already touched on, that you probably need to break out of restrictive/silo-ed ways of looking at things, new audiences might be mildly interested in an artform but if they aren't attending, and this is intended to try and bridge the gap between them not attending and maybe attending then they almost definitely aren't going to know/care about things on an individual company basis – sure they may be aware of large 'brands' (ROH/The National/etc) – but I'd say it'd be far easier to engage them if, as I've already indicated, you try and present great/engaging content on a broader level – this is where collaboration between organisations on a project like this starts to make sense.
HOWEVER, at Opera North I have been partially involved in the artplayer.tv project coming out of FACT in Liverpool (essentially a multi-authored video-sharing platform for cultural video content – a cultural youtube for want of a better explanation), now whilst I think there is a good idea in there I think there are still a few problems – that I know they are working to address – in terms of reaching anything like new audiences. I do think that the sort of thing that Martin is hinting at, e.g. 'non-commercial' (at least in primary focus) solutions that are aimed at new audiences would suffer with much the same problem.
Here is where I think the problem really lies, it's a chicken and egg scenario – arts orgs (understandably) don't quite see the sense in throwing their lot in with a completely new platform that doesn't have a clear commercial purpose as its primary goal (e.g. to get someone through the door/whatever) and still hasn't quite figured out how to reach critical mass in terms of bridging into new audiences, therefore it never becomes a priority to think in these sort of terms, therefore they continue to just worry about themselves and continue to work within pre-existing frameworks/channels.
It needs enough organisations (involving a proper mix of small/medium/large companies – it can't just be the Tate, the National and the IWM or whatever, it needs to actually reflect the 'arts ecology' we hear so much about) to see something like this as a priority, and to work together effectively not only in the development of a fantastic product but with everything else that should follow that around launch, awareness raising, effective marketing etc.
in relation to the first 'need', this is something that I think would make more immediate sense to arts orgs – you are investing in something to address a growing need (huge increase in mobile traffic) that has an obvious commercial purpose (better UX, therefore – in theory – higher conversion % of that traffic), but evidently this isn't quite as exciting! I'm aware that there is a strong argument for having to grow audiences, engage new people, etc but that is a longer-term strategy, which worryingly people seem to have a harder time buying into in the current funding environment. Please prove me wrong!
But then all this talk does really fly in the face of my fairly strongly held feelings about the mobile web, I don't really think that (often) native apps are the best way to go. So maybe I should just shut up.

és una jornalista i escriptora xilena.

Ha publicat en els principals mitjans de comunicació del país, com ara la revista Sábado d'El Mercurio, Qué Pasa i Paula. També treballa per a la Universitat Diego Portales, en la qual havia estudiat la carrera de Periodisme.

El 2008, va guanyar el Premi Periodisme d'Excel·lència atorgat per la Universitat Alberto Hurtado mercès a una entrevista que va fer a la parella de l'empresari i presumpte assassí Gerardo Rocha, Verónica Espinoza.

És coautora de Nicanor Parra, la vida de un poeta (2014), un text sobre les vivències de Nicanor Parra, amb Marcela Escobar. Més tard, va participar en el llibre conjunt Extremas, publicat el 2019 per Ediciones UDP, que biografia diverses dones llatinoamericanes històriques. Notòriament, hi va revelar la carta de suicidi de la cèlebre cantautora xilena Violeta Parra, fins aleshores restringida al públic.

El mateix 2019, inspirada pel Moviment #MeToo i motivada per l'editor i tallerista literari Matías Rivas, va decidir-se a escriure La vida privada de los hombres, en què reflexiona amb una perspectiva feminista sobre la figura desafavorida del gènere masculí dins la societat.

A greenfield site currently home to a group of frogs who mate their every year will be transformed into a mass building site according to a letter sent to residents by housing developer Bovis homes.
Residents close to the controversial Chester Road development site have recently been notified that work will start next week.
A letter was sent to a number of properties on Thursday stating that work on the greenfield site between Chester Road and Well Meadow will start on Monday 7th March. The developer Bovis Homes expect that the first show home will be built within the next 6 weeks.
The controversial site was at the heart of a community led campaign to prevent development which culminated in a bitter protracted planning appeal. But whilst the dark clouds loom for the frogs, the impact upon local residents will be just as great.


Medium-dark ruby; attractive, intense, brambly, blackberry fruit aroma with hints of smoked meat and black pepper; full body; big, forward, rich, extracted, cedary, ripe blackberry fruit flavors with good depth and a slightly creamy mouthfeel; medium-full tannin; lingering aftertaste. Enjoyable to drink now with savory dishes and should continue to develop with several more years of bottle aging. Very highly recommended.

Doctor Strange 2: Ben Affleck 'asked to reprise Daredevil' in Multiverse of Madness | Films | Entertainment
As Marvel Phase 4 enters its second year it's clear that the MCU is swiftly embracing the exploration of alternate realities. We witnessed multiple variants of Tom Hiddleston's god of mischief in Loki, not to mention three Peter Parkers in Spider-Man: No Way Home and now next on Marvel Studios' slate is Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. The Benedict Cumberbatch-led sequel has completed its reshoots and it's rumoured a whole host of nostalgic cameos will feature in the movie with names like Hugh Jackman's Wolverine and Sir Patrick Stewart's Professor X being thrown around.
The latest is that Batman star Ben Affleck has been asked by Marvel to reprise his incarnation of Daredevil, long before Charlie Cox played Matt Murdock in his Netflix show and Spider-Man: No Way Home cameo.
Back in 2003, the Pearl Harbor star was cast as the blind lawyer opposite his future wife Jennifer Garner's Elecktra, who returned to her part in a poorly received spin-off a couple of years later.
Now that Disney own Fox, the rights of the newly rebrand 20th Century Studios' superhero characters like Daredevil, X-Men and Fantastic Four are all for Marvel Studio's taking. And it turns out that multiple sources have claimed that Affleck was approached to appear as his version of Murdock in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
According to comic book movie scooper Manabyte: "Marvel made an overture to Affleck and his people offering him a very, very tiny (probably less than a minute) cameo…the idea was to sort of peek into that universe and close the door on that version of the character."
Superhero movie fans will know that Affleck is reprising his Batman in Warner Bros' own DC multiverse epic this year, The Flash, which will also feature Michael Keaton's Dark Knight.
Manabyte added: "Marvel wasn't expecting him to sign on for [Doctor Strange 2] as they felt he was too loyal to Warner Brothers and he's in The Flash, which is a similar multiverse story. I do not know if he actually declined or not, just that the overture was made in the hopes he would do it."
Big Screen Leaks corroborated this tweeting: "For obvious reasons, I was asked to keep this a secret but Marvel did indeed reach out to Affleck for a cameo as Daredevil. They sent out preliminary contracts to his team but I'm not sure if anything came of it. And yes, this was for [Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness]."
Other scoopers like MyTimeToShineHello said, "It's true" and Grace Randolph tweeted: "I heard this as well, like awhile back – but I don't believe Affleck said yes as he's pretty done with superheroes…So, good scoop true scoop."
It's unclear if Affleck signed on to reprise Daredevil in Doctor Strange 2, especially since the insiders didn't sound too confident.
Aside from the star already reprising his Batman for multiverse mayhem in The Flash this year, it's also worth noting he didn't have a great experience playing either the Marvel or DC superhero.
Daredevil received pretty mixed review upon its release in 2003, criticising Affleck's performance for lacking ambition. Despite cameoing as Murdock in a deleted scene of the Elektra spin-off at Garner's request, he said he would only return for a sequel if Fox committed to darker storytelling of the character.
By 2006, the actor said: "By playing a superhero in Daredevil, I have inoculated myself from ever playing another superhero. Wearing a costume was a source of humiliation for me and something I wouldn't want to do again soon." But despite this, he was, of course, convinced to play the Dark Knight in Batman v Superman and Justice League.
Wesley Snipes Blade 'return wanted by Marvel': Multiverse of Madness? [BLADE]
Hugh Jackman 'in talks for Wolverine return in Avengers Secret Wars' [WOLVERINE]
Doctor Strange 2: The Fox and Sony superhero stars rumoured [DOCTOR STRANGE 2]
Despite being an excellent older Bruce Wayne, the DC movies he played Batman in were critically-panned and financially disappointing at the box office.
The 49-year-old told The LA Times this month: "[Justice League] was a bad experience because of a confluence of things: my own life, my divorce, being away too much, the competing agendas and then [director] Zack [Snyder]'s personal tragedy and the reshooting. It just was the worst experience. It was awful. It was everything that I didn't like about this. That became the moment where I said, 'I'm not doing this anymore.' It's not even about, like, Justice League was so bad. Because it could have been anything."
Nevertheless, he reprised his Caped Crusader for the epilogue of Zack Snyder's Justice League, a much better-reviewed movie than Joss Whedon's theatrical cut, and here he is once again in The Flash. Just as Andrew Garfield was able to have closure after the not so well received Amazing Spider-Man movies in Spider-Man: No Way Home, perhaps Affleck too can redeem his Daredevil with a cameo if he has indeed chosen to sign on.

Houses under construction at Hobsonville Point (Photo: Fiona Goodall/Getty Images)
The Bulletin: Govt takes aim at housing development NIMBYs
Alex Braae | Staff Writer
Good morning, and welcome to The Bulletin. In today's edition: Twyford and Parker propose new urban development policy statement, Tamihere unveils transport plans, and Māori King issues challenge on child abuse.
For a lead today, a nudge towards one of those deeply dense announcements that could end up having a huge impact on the cities of NZ. Ministers Phil Twyford and David Parker have proposed a new National Urban Development Policy Standard. The aim is squarely about allowing cities to grow both up and out, and is a high-level attempt to put in place conditions which will eventually solve the housing crisis. They've basically set out plans for how development could override previous Council and Resource Management Act constraints.
Stuff's story on it was very much aimed at the former, with a topline of the new NPS-UD giving the central government the ability to "sideline NIMBYs". Councils would also have to "ease restrictions on building heights and intensive housing in city centres." On both points, and in general terms, it would theoretically push Councils to allow situations like the long running battle over a Dominion Road development to go ahead. While National Policy Statements aren't about granular detail that Councils must follow, they provide a general direction.
Politik has gone into detail about what the NPS-UD involves. It is "quite firm on the need for more intensive development," particularly in areas where there are jobs, amenities, infrastructure and high levels of demand. More high density development would also potentially be allowed in places like Ponsonby and the wealthy surrounding suburbs, which is currently more dominated by character villas. As for the 'out' part of the development equation, it ties in with the recent government announcement for protection of 'elite soils' – prime horticultural and farming land – so that the most appropriate land is chosen to develop. Local Government NZ plan to do detailed policy assessment on the NPS-UD to ensure it doesn't simply add more red tape to the development process.
Of course, none of this will happen overnight. It's still just a proposal, and it probably won't apply until 2022 anyway. So there is a while to go before we'll see any effects of this. And there are criticisms – National's Judith Collins says it is a "wooly" and overcomplicated statement, and ACT's David Seymour says it's yet more talk. But it's probably significant that their criticisms were based on the politics of it, rather than the policy itself, which suggests some common ground on the need for new direction. So if it is put in place and works effectively, then looking decades down the track it might come to be seen as something of a turning point for New Zealand's urban development.
Auckland mayoral candidate John Tamihere has pledged to scrap some light rail plans and the regional fuel tax if he's elected, reports Stuff. He has also indicated road projects would be prioritised, and the existing rail network extended to the airport, and across his planned superstructure harbour bridge. Tamihere also stressed that he'd be able to convince central government to put up more money, through political pressure.
In what is becoming something of a theme of the campaign, Phil Goff again responded with utter derision about how realistic the plan was. That was elaborated on in an NZME debate hosted by Heather du Plessis-Allan, which at times got fairly rugged. It was followed up by analysis from the NZ Herald's council chiefs Simon Wilson and Bernard Orsman, which in my view was the real show to tune in for.
The Māori King has issued a challenge on child abuse, in relation to controversy around Oranga Tamariki, reports One News. King Tuheitia told those gathered for his annual coronation celebrations at Tūrangawaewae Marae that they had to find solutions, rather than apportioning blame. Earlier in the week, PM Jacinda Ardern was told by Māori Party president Che Wilson "to show courage when it comes to Māori," and reminded her that she had asked te ao Māori to hold her to account at Waitangi.
Fletcher Building has bounced back from a bad year with a hefty $164 million profit. While only two of the seven divisions have improved earnings, assets have been sold and debt paid down, reports Maria Slade for The Spinoff. It comes amid the ongoing outcry over Fletcher's development of Ihumātao, a piece of land valued by the Council at $36 million.
Some promising early signs have emerged from a piece of research into stopping kauri dieback. Radio NZ reports on the Vic Uni study, which found that kānuka extract could potentially be useful in stopping the microbial spores that spread the tree disease. Interestingly, the jumping off point for the research was indigenous knowledge from the Ngāpuhi iwi, who have long observed the different waves of plants in the growth of a forest.
The GCSB has given Vodafone the go-ahead for their 5G network, reports the NBR (paywalled.) That might not seem like the biggest deal in the world, but it is significant given the same was not provided for Spark, and their partnership with Huawei. Vodafone will be working with Nokia, from Finland.
Here's an interesting piece about technological solutions to climate change politics, by economist Peter Fraser and freshwater scientist Dr Mike Joy on Newsroom. Their argument is that relying on such fixes – like the methane-reducing compound currently in development – is that it allows things to continue pretty much as they are now. They say instead, farming practices need to change on a broad and deep scale, even though that's politically difficult.

From left to right, the 2019 Silver Scrolls finalists: Tiny Ruins, Tom Scott, The Beths, Aldous Harding, Benee.
Right now on The Spinoff: The Silver Scrolls finalists – announced this morning! – talk about what they like about each other's work. Dave Hansford explores the conservation of kea through the use of 1080, and the complex task of saving a species. Kate Hannah demands universities squarely face up to rife sexual misconduct on campus. Eric Crampton comes out in strong support for the proposed Parliamentary Budget Office.
We've also put out our first local election race briefing, which we'll do a lot of over the coming weeks. Today's one is about the Otago Regional Council, who is standing, and what are the main issues for this deceptively important arm of local government.
And finally, I had a day off last week. And in the middle of it, I went to go and see a daytime movie, and wrote about it. A friend described it variously as "the saddest tale ever told" and "too sad". I'll let you be the judge.
For a feature today, some really bad news. The Amazon rainforest is on fire, has been for a few weeks now, and that brings with it grave climate implications. As Vox outlines, it's not even the most high-profile persistent forest fire burning right now. Here's an excerpt:
In recent years, humans have made the destruction from wildfires worse at every step. Suppression of natural fires has allowed dry vegetation to accumulate. Human activity is changing the climate, which is forcing some forests to heat up and dry out. People are building ever closer to areas ready to ignite. And people end up igniting the majority of wildfires, whether through downed power lines, errant sparks, or arson.
But the Amazon rainforest, which remains drenched for much of the year, does not burn naturally. Instead, the fires are ignited by people. Farmers use slash-and-burn tactics to clear land for farming and pasture, though it's illegal in Brazil this time of year due to fire risk.
Illegal logging operations in Brazil have also been known to start fires as a tactic to drive indigenous people off their land and to cover their tracks. The Amazon rainforest has experienced a record number of fires this year, with 72,843 reported so far.
The ASB Classic have secured the return of the GOAT, Serena Williams. That might have seemed unlikely after her last appearance in Auckland didn't go that well, but tournament organisers have pulled it off. The NZ Herald has a good piece on how it was achieved, and how hard tournament director Karl Budge worked to make it happen.
And speaking of organisational coups in the sporting world, this is a really good piece on the women leading Netball NZ out of the dark days. LockerRoom have profiled Jennie Wyllie, the current CEO, who managed to get Noeline Taurua to both coach the Silver Ferns, and then stick around for another few tournaments, both on short-term deals. It's a big, brave move, but one that has so far reaped huge dividends.

Tattoos have through generations both disgusted and captivated people. Prison Ink is not only for those that loves ink, but also for you, that might want to confront some of the prejudice or fears about tattoos, that you might have. Prison Ink is for everyone and you will experience a completely different atmosphere, with both the chance of getting something to eat and drink, listen to some live music – and just listen to the working needles buzzing.

Album Reissues
Published on 5th February 2017
Steamhammer – Mountains
Article by: John Wenlock-Smith (Former Reviewer)
This is another of Esoteric's marvellous revisitations of a lost classic album, which they seem to be finding and reissuing on a regular basis nowadays. In my opinion, this is not a bad thing, especially when they find a real gem like this 1971 album from Steamhammer.
Steamhammer were a Progressive Blues rock band with an interesting history. Originally formed in 1968 by Vocalist Kieran White and Guitarist Martin Quittenton, who later played on Rod Stewart classics like Maggie May and You Wear it Well. At one stage Steve Joliffe, later of Cyclone-era Tangerine Dream, was a member, however, by 1970 the band were a quartet of Kieran White, Martin Pugh, Steve Davy and Mick Bradley and after being the backing band for visiting bluesmen like Freddie KIng they set about recording this, their third album, for the B and C Label.
Their sound had morphed from the earlier blues boom sound to incorporate various Jazz influences, and this album is a bridge between their earlier style and a more progressive track they took on later releases. I have to say that it is only with repeated listenings that the true worth of this album emerges, but when it does it is a thing of great value. Mainly blues-based, it has some great instrumental passages, especially on the two live tracks recorded at The Lyceum in London which are very interesting indeed, concisely capturing the power and versatility of the band and with a great bass and guitar section that is especially gripping. It is an earthy sounding disc which played loud will rattle your speakers. In Martin Pugh, Steamhammer had a strong guitarist who could seriously play some sizzling leads.
If you like early '70s progressive blues then this album will be right up your street as it is a consistently strong and vibrant album. The booklet has an in-depth history and reminisces about the band and the recording of this particular album and features the original innovative artwork in full.

Easter is only a few weeks away and we would love to celebrate with you and your family! We will be having 3 identical services for you to choose from. All 3 services will have children services for children birth to 5th grade. Any children who are in 6th grade and older are invited to the student ministry service that will happen on Sunday morning during the 11:15 am service.


So affirmative action highlights differences and incites jealousy, and therefore it is bad; but discussing crime statistics is okay even though it too highlights differences and incites hatred and fear? Baffling…simply baffling.
That was some epic Glenn Lourry.
Glenn!!! Why are you countering the social justice warrior narrative?
I would love if Glenn or John McWhorter had these references handy — I think it would make the critique of Black Lives Matter much stronger.
Love Glen's answer on UBI though I do not agree, but how about an hourly wage subsidy?
Mr. Loury has got to go on the Rogan Podcast!
When Matt says "they've got you on the website" regarding the Intellectual Dark Web – that website is totally unofficial and not run by anyone in the IDW, according to Eric Weinstein in some interview (I don't recall which). So Glenn is likely just there because he was mentioned in Bari Weiss's NYT piece.
Oh yes you are associated with the IDW, by definition. You've guested in their podcasts and you hold counter narrative opinions based on inconvenient data that neither side of the partisan isle wants to honestly deal with. You are iconoclast out of reverence of truth. That is IDW.
The idea from Matt Ward that people who talk about race and racism are emotional and logical is grounded in a lack of knowledge about social science research. There is plenty empirical evidence suggesting that race matters in a myriad number of ways. Sometimes the quality of that research, as it is not experimental, can sometimes be called into question. But the sheer amount of studies suggests very strongly that race matters. Talking about white privilege, white fragility, etc. are logical extensions of that research.
Glen is always a good talker and clear thinker. But I think Glenn, as an economist, makes the same error that many others do. They derive conclusions about a social pattern (racism) without engaging with the scholarship of those who are trained to study the pattern. It would be like a physical therapist mastering her field and then deciding to talk extensively about evolution. OK, it is possible, but she needs to make sure she has read and engaged with evolutionary biologists/psychologists.
Oh yes you are associated with the IDW, by definition. You've guested in their podcasts and you say counter narrative opinions based on inconvenient data, and you hold positions on both sides of the partisan isle. You are iconoclast out of reverence of truth. That is IDW.
Someone needs to help Glenn navigate the IDW. Maybe get him on Joe Rogan"s show, or Dave Rubin's.
Prof. Loury, I believe that many would find a conversation with you and Andrew Yang (the American entrepreneur, Founder of Venture for America, author of The War on Normal People, and a 2020 Democratic presidential candidate) worth listening to – although his talk with Sam Harris was quite good, I bet a talk with you would be even better.
Can Glenn make his own channel?
You sound like a tool calling it Marijuana. Do yourself a favor and do a little research on how it got that name and how it became illegal. "Cannabis" is the preferred nomenclature.
Hey, Glenn. The IDW goes far beyond who the NYT writes about, including many individuals less controversial than it's most prominent faces. You became a part of it when consumers decided. That is the way people get in. Believe it or not, it isn't some exclusive club. Love you, Glenn. You are a good man.
From where can I find these data that Prof. Gloury was citing?
I smile real big every time I get a YouTube notification of a new Glenn conversation. Keep up the good work; your rigorous perspective is a breath of fresh air in a smog of otherwise lightweight social commentary.

AT&T Foundation Donates $500,000 To Hurricane Katrina Relief, Pledges To Match Employees' Contributions
WEBWIRE – Thursday, September 1, 2005
BEDMINSTER, N.J. – The AT&T Foundation, the philanthropic arm of AT&T Corp., said today that it will donate $500,000 to the American Red Cross to aid victims of the devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina throughout the Gulf Coast.
The Hurricane 2005 Relief Fund enables the Red Cross to respond immediately, providing shelter, food, counseling and other assistance to disaster victims in the United States.
Additionally, the AT&T Foundation will match AT&T employee contributions of $25 or more to the Hurricane 2005 Relief Fund or the National Disaster Relief Fund for up to a total of $100,000 in matching funds for emergency relief and response efforts related to Hurricane Katrina. Further, the company will set up a fund through the AT&T Pioneers to assist its own employees directly affected by the hurricane. AT&T and its employees have a long tradition of responding and assisting in times of natural disasters.
AT&T also said it is assuring that its network services remain in operation for businesses and consumers by replenishing fuel to generators and recharging batteries in areas where commercial power has been interrupted.
The company dispatched several Emergency Communications Satellite Units into the area to support relief efforts. One of those units was made available to the State of Louisiana for emergency operations and is currently being used by the Louisiana State Police. AT&T's Network Disaster Recovery equipment, which is designed for quick mobility to restore essential telecommunications services, has arrived in southern Louisiana and Mississippi for use as needed.
AT&T's Internet and data networks have remained in service without interruption from the hurricane, and the company said it is experiencing some minor call blocking in its voice network in areas of the southern U.S. affected by Hurricane Katrina. The majority of this blocking is due to outages in local telephone company end offices and facilities.
For more than 125 years, AT&T (NYSE 'T') has been known for unparalleled quality and reliability in communications. Backed by the research and development capabilities of AT&T Labs, the company is a global leader in local, long distance, Internet and transaction-based voice and data services.

'I don't have much hope': Koreans search for loved ones who died fighting for Japan

Kim Jung-im used to be 3 years previous when her father, Kim Dong-won, used to be conscripted into the Jap imperial military in 1940.
He died, elderly 23, within the jungles of New Guinea in 1943, two years sooner than Japan's wartime defeat and the Korean peninsula's liberation from greater than 3 a long time of colonial rule by means of Tokyo.
"We didn't know whether or not he used to be alive or lifeless, even after Korea used to be liberated," Kim advised the Mum or dad all the way through her contemporary discuss with to Tokyo in conjunction with different aged family members of South Korean conscripts determined to be informed the fates – and in some circumstances the overall resting puts – of "forgotten" infantrymen who fought on far away battlefields greater than seven a long time in the past.
However as Japan and South Korea marked the 74th anniversary of the top of the struggle on Thursday, the households' possibilities for a step forward gave the impression gloomier than ever amid an escalating bilateral dispute stemming from the legacy in their sour wartime historical past.

Campaigners in Japan and South Korea suspect the information of hundreds of Korean males pressured to battle within the title of Japan's wartime emperor, Hirohito, have long gone lacking.
Because the Korean peninsula's colonial energy, Japan conscripted nearly 244,000 Koreans, in keeping with Japan's well being ministry, together with 110,000 drafted from early 1945 whose information seem to have vanished.
An estimated 22,000 conscripts died in struggle, their souls enshrined along the ones of Jap infantrymen at Yasukuni, a debatable struggle shrine in Tokyo.
The absence of any documentary proof of the fates of hundreds of conscripts has left gaping holes within the households' histories, whilst some declare their very own govt has been reluctant to lend a hand.
Many say they have got struggled to win reimbursement as a result of they have got no proof that their family members ever served within the Jap army, or that the cash they have got won is inadequate.
The rush to determine the destiny of family members comes amid an ongoing feud between Seoul and Tokyo about South Korean courtroom rulings closing yr that ordered Jap corporations which used pressured wartime labour to compensate survivors and the households of those that have died – a transfer that sparked outrage in Japan.
The dispute has hit business, brought about boycotts of Jap items in South Korea and brought on some eating places and companies to prohibit Jap guests. Japan's international ministry suggested travellers to South Korea to "workout warning" over their protection forward of Thursday's struggle anniversary.
Tokyo has insisted that the rulings broke a 1965 treaty normalising bilateral ties and an accompanying settlement that settled reimbursement claims "utterly and in the end".

'Their information have disappeared'
Kim, who used to be six when her father died, has no recollection of the person who fell in New Guinea, one of the vital longest, and for the Jap, most expensive campaigns of the Pacific struggle.
However she is aware of extra about her father's destiny than many South Korean households whose contributors fought for Japan.
"What is sure is that against the top of the struggle, Japan ruthlessly conscripted a lot of Koreans," mentioned Choi Sang-yong, who heads an affiliation of households looking for details about family members who have been conscripted by means of Japan.
I don't have a lot hope left
Kim Jung-im
"We imagine that tens of hundreds – imaginable many extra – have been conscripted after January 1945 however and that their information have disappeared," mentioned Choi, whose nice uncle served within the Jap army. "This factor hasn't ever been correctly handled, so a large number of other folks in Japan and South Korea don't even know there's a downside."
An reliable on the Jap well being ministry mentioned figuring out conscripts were difficult by means of the colonial technology coverage of forcing Korean conscripts to take Jap names, which bereaved households would possibly by no means have identified. As well as, the outbreak of the Korean struggle disrupted efforts to tell households of the destiny in their family members, the reliable added.
The Jap govt despatched its ultimate information of conscripts to South Korea at Seoul's request in 1993. "Claims that Japan didn't cross the rosters it needed to the South Korean govt are unfaithful," the reliable advised the Mum or dad.
"Japan says the one information it has most effective cross so far as January 1945 and that it despatched the ones after that date to South Korea, however the South Korean government say they by no means won them," mentioned Kim Kum-ja, whose uncle, Shin-joon, used to be conscripted in February 1945. He died within the 1950-53 Korean Battle, however there are not any reliable information of his time serving within the Jap army all the way through the second one global struggle.
"There's an enormous discrepancy. What are we meant to do when the entire two governments can do is blame every different [for losing the records]?"
Kim's circle of relatives had no thought her father had died in Jap uniform till 1971, once they won 300,000 gained [£205/$250] in reimbursement for his loss of life from the South Korean govt.
"The South Korean govt didn't touch folks or ship paperwork notifying households in their deaths in their family members till then," she mentioned. "My mom even went to fortunetellers to determine what had took place to him."
Kim's circle of relatives does now not possess a unmarried of her father, fearing that proof of his time within the Jap military might be used to accuse them of taking part with their nation's colonial masters.
"After the struggle, the South Korean govt mentioned it could punish 'traitors' who had fought for Japan, in conjunction with their households. We have been petrified and had no selection however to burn his images … even his garments. We advised other folks he had died of an sickness."
Now 81, Kim mentioned she had nearly given up hope of discovering her father's stays or finding out extra about how he died within the provider of imperial Japan.
"I don't have a lot hope left," she mentioned. "We've been combating for the reality for many years, and we're all in our 80s now. Who is aware of how for much longer we've got? I don't even take into account what my father appeared like. I by no means were given to name him dad."
