Robert Eggers' new, Björk-starring Viking film gets a release date
The Northman is also set to star Anya Taylor-Joy, Willem Dafoe, Alexander Skarsgård, Nicole Kidman, and more
Björk – winter 20197
The latest film from Robert Eggers — director of The Witch and The Lighthouse — finally has a release date, following long production delays due to the coronavirus pandemic. Titled The Northman, the Viking revenge film is set to premiere internationally on April 8, 2022, via Focus Features and Universal.
Set in 10th century Iceland, the film follows a Nordic prince as he seeks revenge for his father's death. As announced in August last year, Björk is set to star alongside her daughter, Ísadóra Bjarkardóttir Barney.
The ensemble cast also includes Anya Taylor-Joy and Kate Dickie (of The Witch), as well as Willem Dafoe, Nicole Kidman, Ethan Hawke, and Alexander Skarsgård.
The Northman was reportedly pitched to Robert Eggers by Alexander Skarsgård, and the script was written by Eggers in collaboration with Icelandic poet and novelist Sjón. Sjón has previously worked with Björk on several musical projects, including her haunting acapella work with the Hamrahlid Choir in 2019.

A talented guitarist and drummer, Geoff Chew's initial urge to take up a musical instrument came in 1957 after watching Elvis performing 'All Shook Up' on television.
A couple of cheap guitars later, Geoff graduated to a Hofner V3 and, in 1961 aged sixteen, he launched his first band 'The Senators'.
As the band's reputation grew and gigs multiplied, Geoff managed to buy the iconic combination of a Fender Stratocaster and a Vox AC30 amplifier.
By 1963 trends in music had changed and 'The Senators' enlisted a new vocalist and rhythm guitarist.
Geoff traded in his Strat for a Gibson ES335 and, with the arrival of yet another vocalist and rhythm guitarist, in late 1964 it seemed prudent to change the name of the band. So, was born 'The Ladykillers' who enhanced their image by acquiring a Rolls Royce Hearse to ferry their equipment around.
Later, although successful, the band folded and Geoff Chew and the drummer Mick Larvin joined members of 'The Tarantulas' in forming 'Moldy Warp'. Ex-Senator/Ladykiller Des O'Hara also joined 'Moldy Warp' in early 1966.

As a sports fan, I was disappointed to find myself thinking more about economics than track-and-field events after hearing that Durban had been named as the host of the 2022 Commonwealth Games.
This turn to money and its management is to be expected. After all, an all-too-familiar logic these days links the staged sporting spectacle to the creation of jobs through tourism.
In a statement made after the announcement, Sports Minister Fikile Mbalula directed his attention to money and the legacy issue. Unsurprisingly, there was nothing really new: essentially, he gave the same assurances that were issued after the country was awarded the Fifa 2010 World Cup.
But just to put the figures on the present table, much less will be spent than the mind-boggling $3-billion that was spent in 2010.
The eThekwini Games (as I predict they'll become known, and as Durban is known in isiZulu) will reportedly cost about $480-million (R6.5-billion).
But, my own reach for the economic, not the sporting, end of all this was not driven by South Africa's soaring unemployment figures. Nor did I think of another economic point made by the minister – namely, that Durban was well served by stadiums and sporting facilities.
I was also not alive to the fact that most of these mega-sporting events have overrun their budgets and left both city and national treasuries indebted for decades. This was the worry of the Canadian city, Edmonton, Durban's only real rival, which withdrew its bid in February this year. There is a nagging notion that the 2004 Athens Olympic Games may have triggered Greece's ongoing financial crisis.
These sporting behemoths are not only strangling the 19th-century idea of sport, with its notions of fair play, they have also corroded the 20th-century ideal that sport is a proxy for war.
Closely associated with that often painful truism that "time is money", opportunity cost is the value of the best alternative option or, put differently, the cost of sacrificing alternatives by making a particular economic choice.
By investing in the 2022 Commonwealth Games, the possibility of investing elsewhere in society has been sacrificed.
This wider dimension is important because, although the idea of opportunity cost is mostly associated with money, it can be measured across society as a whole.
As South Africa learnt from the World Cup, staging sporting events requires not only financial investment but also, to succeed, public mobilisation. And, surely, as we build towards 2022, South Africans will be called on to support eThekwini's games.
My economic worry is this: by electing to stage the 2022 games, what has been sacrificed? More prosaically, what else could we have bought with the money and energy we will spend on the games?
International ranking after ranking, comparative study after study, have put South Africa near the bottom of the class when it comes to schooling. Almost 40 years after Soweto's brave Class of '76 sacrificed their lives protesting against the poor quality of apartheid education, very little has changed fundamentally. The truth is that we have a national education system that reproduces apartheid and, to speak a wholly unpleasant truth to those in power: successive post-apartheid governments have failed South Africa's children as much as apartheid ideologues did.
I believe that it would have been preferable to spend the money and the seven-year social capital we will expend on the 2022 games on a root-and-branch overhaul of South Africa's schooling system.
This could not be another half-hearted fiddling at the edges of the system, or the importation of hare-brained ideas – such as outcomes-based education – from elsewhere. To succeed, it would have to be to be purposefully driven by a national consensus that no single child should be excluded.
The urgency of schooling might well have been declared in the very same words that eThekwini's mayor James Nxumalo used on his return from New Zealand, where the announcement of the Commonwealth Games host was made: the work begins now; the preparations must start now. We must not wait. We must not lose a single day, a single hour, or even a single minute.
In the many emergencies that will follow in the build-up to eThekwini 2022, local rules and routines – and even politics – will have to be suspended, as South Africa discovered in the months leading up to the World Cup.
In the field of education, a declared state of emergency (or urgency) would help to remove obstacles that stand in the way of the desired goal, which might well include taming the South African Democratic Teachers' Union, the leviathan that continues to retard better schooling.
A country mobilised around the national goal of schooling for all – now that would be a competition well worth winning. Indeed, it might even be one on which economists could agree.

One care plan does not fit all, and that is why we believe every person should be fully aware of their healthcare options. At Homewatch CareGivers® we can help you understand the options available to you and your family so you can make the choice that's right for you. Your quality of life is important to us.

I don't know about you but I think I've lost count of the number of times I've said I wish I had more blogger pals or just gal pals in general.
These days once you reach a certain age it seems to become a LOT more difficult to meet other girls; you no longer go to school or college where you naturally mix with others your age. Yes, you do go to work, however, we all know that's not quite the same. You make friends but not the sort of friends you made in year 7,8 and 9 from turning to the new girl at the start of the year and saying 'HEY, We should be Best Friends', then the rest would become history. That technique worked a charm. In fact, the first girl I spoke to and became friends with on my first day in year 7 is still my Best Friend now. Those were the good ol' days.
I've recently discovered a new app called 'HEY! VINA'; the sole purpose of it is to allow you to connect with other girls that live fairly close to you. Sounds amazing, right?
The app then gives you the opportunity to do a few quizzes, some of the questions include 'Do you prefer Tea or Wine?', 'Are you an introvert or extrovert', just the basics that'll then help match you to other like-minded pals.
Next up is updating your profile, where there's a section to select some of your interests, these range from Jet-setters to Happy Hour, Runners, Dog Owners and the most exciting one, BLOGGERS!
SELECTING WHO YOU WANT AS YOUR PAL. This bit is super easy, all you have to do is swipe left to say Nah our interests don't aline or right to say 'HEY GAL, YOU'RE FAB'.
If you both swipe right then you get to chat to each other to start a lovely friendship, the whole swiping system works just like Tinder, I just really didn't want to use that word as trust me, it's nothing like it.
I've only been using this app for roughly a week now and I've already spoken to a handful of lovely girls, it's honestly fantastic!
HOW CAN WE MAKE OUR EXPERIENCE EVEN BETTER?
The more of us that get involved and download the app the more girls that'll be on there, obviously meaning there are more new friends we'll have the chance of making. I honestly believe this is something that EVERY GAL should try out, you've got nothing to lose by it!
HAVE YOU DOWNLOADED HEY! VINA YET?
This sounds like such a fab app to have if you're looking for new pals! Might have a look at it myself, I rarely speak to anyone nowadays.
This sounds like an amazing app!
Oooh this sounds like a great app – I'll have a look at it tomorrow 100%!! To be honest, I still am at school hahah so I do have all my lovely friends there, but this does sound like a fab way to make more blogger friends.
This sounds amazing! I feel like most bloggers are down south so I'm definitely going to download this!
That's such a sweet app idea, I'm definitely going to check it out! Hopefully there are other people near me using it haha!


Last year I wanted to make Paige a Christmas Eve box but I never got round to it, mainly because I was suffering with bad morning sickness. This year I wanted to try again and succeeded. I decided that as Parker is still small I would make them a joint box this year but I may just do a joint box every year.
I didn't want to go crazy and add a million things too it but I just wanted a few little items for them to have on Christmas Eve. The plan is for them to open the box after tea.
A pair of pajamas for both Paige and Parker. I love the idea of having special Christmas pajamas on Christmas Eve. Both sets of pajamas were from Primark. Paige's were around £4 and Parker's were £10 but also came with a dressing gown (which I've wrapped up and a ginger bread man teddy which is in his stocking).
A Christmas DVD. This year I've gone with a Peppa Pig Christmas DVD. Mainly because I know Paige will love it. After tea and a bath we will all sit down and watch this together. This was from Primark and was £4.
The night before Christmas book. We have never read this book so I'm super excited to read this on Christmas Eve. This was £5ish from Asda and has a CD too.
A Christmas plate for Santa, this won't be included in every years box but I thought it made a nice addition to this years box and we can reuse it next year and for many years to come. It was from Matalan and was £8.
I also put some magic snow powder in as I thought it might be a fun activity to do with Paige. It was £1 from the PoundShop.
Last up we have a little chocolate penguin and polar bear. Parker won't eat his but I had to include two. A little treat for after tea while we are watching the DVD.
The box isn't anything fancy and I just wrapped up a plain box with Christmas paper. I know that they won't care what the box looks like so didn't bother buying one especially. This also made it cheaper as I just reused a box we already had.
Do you make Christmas Eve boxes?


'Collateral' is weird little gem that I'm glad I discovered.
I adore dropping into Steam, typing in some random words like "future nightmare" and promptly buying all of the weird suggestions I get. Last week, I stumbled upon a game I had never heard of, despite it being released in 2014 (kinda) and having been an early part of the Early Access program, which allowed gamers to play unfinished games.
Collateral, much like the Mann film of same name, is about a taxi driver. A Crazy Taxi driver, you might say, because that's clearly the foundation of the gameplay. The twist is that this driver has a flying taxi in a future dystopian nightmare city, where you'll constantly need to outrun and battle other flying vehicular foes.
So there's a lot of cool bits and then there are some fairly standard video game red flags. "Zack Edgewater"? C'mon. Either go full "Max Payne" or go home.
I know it doesn't graphically stack up to other games from two years ago (just look at these clipping explosions!), but this is the closest to living in The Fifth Element that video games will ever get.
I live that we've reached the point in gaming where I have instant access to stuff like Collateral because I'm a big fan of the B-movie equivalents in the game industry — and a space taxi shooter sim is exactly the kind of thing no one else would dare make, so we're lucky folks like Dancing Dinosaur games can take on ideas like this. Is the game great? Nah, bruh. It's dated and flawed and crashed on me twice. Is it fun and weird? Absolutely.
There are complaints in the forums that this Early Access game never really got finished, and failed to deliver on any of its promised updates. Someone pick up this concept where Dancing Dinosaur left off. Or throw some money at them. Their production company animation is literally a dinosaur in a tutu dancing. Clearly, they get entertainment.

Stripping for CAPTCHAs
Posted at November 1, 2007
Spammers want email accounts. Free email services like Yahoo! Mail, GMail, and Windows Live Hotmail want to give people free email accounts, but they don't want to help spammers. Thus, they try to make sure that it is easy for one person to sign up for an email account, but hard for a spam system to sign up for 1000 email accounts.
Thus, when you sign up for an email account, such as on this Yahoo! page, you're required to complete a CAPTCHA ("Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart"; the acronym probably came first) to prove you're not a computer. These are relatively easy for humans to read, but relatively difficult for computers to — although as OCR software gets better at reading them, they get harder and harder for people to read. Eventually these will stop working altogether when the crossover error rate for computers reading them is equal to or lower than the one for humans, though this is a good way off. We're already at the point where when a major online service increases their CAPTCHA difficulty, they notice a significant drop-off in sign-ups as users find themselves unable to complete them (many users, if they can't complete it in 1-2 tries, consider it to be not worth the effort and go on to another site.)
In the meantime, though, spammers keep trying to find ways to bypass them. Automation doesn't work so well — that being the whole point — so they've come up with rather innovative ways to do this.
One option: just pay people to solve them for you. Spamming makes money. One email account can send thousands of spams before being shut down. In the global economy, you can hire someone for $0.60/hr. to solve CAPTCHAs for you without asking questions like "why are you doing this?" At $50/week, you can have all the email accounts you need to make rather more than $50 sending spam.
A newer option: make people think it's a game. Yes, there's a piece of malware floating around that has a digitized woman stripping for CAPTCHAs. It's like digital strip poker, only instead of winning a hand of cards you just have to correctly answer a CAPTCHA. You fill them out, the app signs up for an email account and sends it to the spammer, and it shows you porn. It's considered malware (Trend Micro calls it TROJ_CAPTCHAR.A) because it's being used for spamming, but the app does exactly what it says it does — it doesn't harm its user, it just helps spammers in the background.
Of course, in a sense CAPTCHA is still serving its purpose — it is stopping purely automated attacks. Neither paying people nor tricking them with porn games scales nearly as well as straight automation — without a CAPTCHA you could create thousands of email accounts per hour rather than per week. However, it still serves as a good illustration of the ingenuity of attackers, and the fact that no countermeasure makes an app "secure" — they make it secure from something. In this case, with pure automation foreclosed to them, attackers have simply found an end-run around the problem. CAPTCHAs are dependent on making it not worth the spammer's time to fake sign-ups, and in that they succeed… where they fail is that some other people value their time far less than spammers do, and spammers are learning to exploit that fact.
attacks, spam

The most important holidays of the winter: Christmas and New Year are just around the corner. We will celebrate them with the closest ones. So, we have to prepare our makeup.
During this time of the year we can wear a sparkly makeup, so we can reveal our holiday spirit.
Prepare the skin. Before putting makeup on, we have to prepare the skin.
You should cleanse the skin, exfoliate it and nourish it in advance.
On the D – Day you can use a serum as a makeup base, especially if you have a dry skin. Apply the serum one hour before putting the makeup on.
Use another color for the mascara. We normally use a black mascara. But for the holidays everything is allowed. To have fun and to try a new look, you can use a different mascara. For those who don't want to experiment, you can use a black mascara with golden sparkles. For the others who are braver and more eccentric, you can use a golden mascara.
Glitters for the eyes. It is not very common to use glittery eyeshadows for another occasion, but for Christmas and for the New Year it is normal to use them. There are different colors of the glittery eyeshadows, so it's up to you to choose your favorite color.
We recommend violet glittery shades.
Matte lips. Because you will have glitter on the eyes, you should have matte lips. It will be too much to have glitter on both, the lips and the eyes.
You start by contouring the lips with a red lip pencil.
You apply a rose lipstick and a red lipstick. You mix them to get a specific color.
Don't forget to use a fixator, so your makeup can last longer. The glitters can start following down if you used big glitters.

Speaking of command line.. do you (or anyone reading) know of a utility similar to Windows Run-Command? WRC itself isn't so bad. But the extras it has just don't seem to be things I use commonly, other than RegEdit Button.
All the GUI prompt emulators for Windows, be they multitab or whatever, just seem unstable. Something like WRC would be cool f it just had more useful doodads tacked on.
Edit: I'm thinking freeware utilities.
For "assoc", try "assoc >aso.txt" then open the file or just type "aso.txt".
I've not seen assoc before.
The CMD window doesn't hold many lines in the buffer, so you'll likely need to write it to a file to see the results.
Speaking of command line.. do you (or anyone reading) know of a utility similar to Windows Run-Command?
Do you mean something like 4dos? I never used it but it sounded like it could be good stuff, many people raved about it for years. Looks like it has gone freeware, although I haven't dug into the site. I'm sure there are other DCers who can comment on it.
Or can you be more specific about what you have in mind?
only free would be of interest.
And/Or Windows Run-Command only with a better button set. RegEdit and a command prompt are obvious. But the other buttons I don't recognize and there's no tool tip to tell what they are on mouse hover. I'd have to run them to find out. Always a hairy proposition.
For a free powercmd-alike (I think) here's a DC thread on Console: console: a great CMD.exe replacement application.
It's hard to imagine that what you are looking for isn't available here..
OK. I remember playing around with 4NT quite awhile back. Thanks. It looks like it may be fun.
Thanks. I have enough to mess with for a bit.
Edit: This is a good example of what I run into. I installed it. Ran it. Did a simple command. Clicked the magnifying glass to do a search. I got "has stopped working" dialog. Uninstalled it.
Nice, there are a few of them I didn't know.

Social financial engineering
Britain's government tries a new way to finance social spending
Mar 23rd 2010 |
IN THE 1980s Britain pioneered a new approach to public finance that soon spread around the world. Championed in the face of considerable public opposition by Margaret Thatcher, the British government privatised those bits of the public sector it could get rid of. And it put out to competitive tender those services it felt it must continue to provide but believed would benefit from a dose of competition. These policies are now standard practice almost everywhere—supported by a multi-billion-dollar industry.
Britain's current, Labour government hopes that history will repeat itself with a new approach to public finance, for which it launched a pilot scheme on March 18th. Its big idea, which the opposition Conservatives are also keen on, is that the state issues "social-impact bonds" whose proceeds are applied to schemes to solve social problems. If they succeed they will save the taxpayer large amounts of money, a slice of which will be shared with the bond's investors. Doing something like this has long been a holy grail for financially-literate social engineers and socially-minded financial engineers, but this is thought to be the first time it has been piloted in national government.
In the pilot scheme the bond will raise up to £5m ($7.5m) to finance various private-sector organisations to work closely for six years with 3,000 short-term prisoners jailed in Peterborough, both inside prison and after their release, to help them resettle into the community. At present, prisoners like these have a tendency to reoffend and end up back in jail, costing government and society a fortune.
Investors will have a powerful incentive to finance organisations that will turn ex-jailbirds into upright citizens
The bond gives its investors a powerful incentive to finance organisations that will turn these ex-jailbirds into upright citizens. If they can reduce the rate of reoffending by at least 10%, the investors will be paid, the amount rising as the recidivism rate falls. If the payout is triggered—a 10% decline representing proof that the improvement is due to more than chance—the investors will earn a minimum internal rate of return of 7.5%, rising to a maximum of 13%, with payments made during years six and eight.
Social-impact bond is actually a misnomer: "social-impact special-purpose vehicle" would be more accurate, though also less marketable, given the current widespread suspicion of financial engineering, especially by governments engaging in off-balance-sheet financing. A special-purpose body will raise the money from investors, select the organisations that will do the work, and contract with the government. It will be overseen by an advisory board, not least to ensure that nothing too controversial is attempted to meet the targets. The right to a payout will be determined by an independent assessor. If the minimum performance target is not achieved, the investors get no money back—making the bond more equity-like than bond-like.
The social-impact bond is said to have two advantages over traditional outsourcing and public-private-finance programmes. One is that it transfers the risk of achieving social change from the government to private investors. If the desired impact is achieved, both the government and the investors win. If it isn't achieved, only the investor pays. This is the sort of deal that politicians love—and thus it may help overcome governments' risk-aversion, especially toward policies of prevention. Preventive policies such as stopping prisoners reoffending make politicians look great if they work, and reduce budgets in the long-term, but can make them look fiscally irresponsible if they don't.
If the desired impact is achieved, both the government and the investors win
The social-impact bond would also shift the focus of contract negotiations toward the impact on society, rather than the less risky output-based measurements that are typical in existing outsourcing contracts. The current model of private finance for public services tends to focus chiefly on reducing the cost of the current activity (ie, housing prisoners). Sometimes there are performance elements (eg, penalties for letting prisoners escape), but what is new about the government's scheme is that it incorporates incentives for radically improving outcomes (ie, helping them stay out of jail) into the financing model.
The aim is to attract innovative social problem-solvers in both the for-profit and non-profit sectors, although the pilot scheme only uses non-profits. The frustrations of the non-profit sector with the inadequate funding of preventive policies under the present system, and the prospect that the current economic mess will only make things worse, prompted the bond's creation. David Robinson, the founder of Community Links, a non-profit in East London, felt that the government was "running an ambulance service at the bottom of a cliff rather than building a fence at the top". He outlined his thinking at a meeting in 2007 of the new Council on Social Action established by Gordon Brown, the prime minister. As a result, Social Finance, a new British "social-investment bank" focused on developing markets for giving and social investing, eventually took up the idea.
On paper, the potential looks huge. In the pilot scheme, one of the non-profits will be the St Giles Trust. A study by a group of volunteering professional economists called ProBono Economics calculates that if the pilot repeats the 40% decline in reoffending that the trust has already achieved with its "meet at the gate" programme, each pound invested in St Giles would eventually save the state more than £10. (The "eventually" seems to be the reason why the government does not do the obvious, and fund the project in the old fashioned way through public spending.)
Developing a significant market in the new bonds will be a challenge, to say the least
Developing a significant market in social-impact bonds will be a challenge, to say the least. It is likely to be hard to persuade mainstream investors to put money into something so new and with such uncertain returns. Perhaps the most likely buyers of the bonds are charitable trusts, since they have a longer investment horizon than many other investors and, of course, because their fundamental objectives are often to solve the sort of social problems that the bonds' proceeds will be applied to. However, trusts may be discouraged from participating by uncertainty about whether the law allows them to invest in such schemes.
Potential investors, besides looking carefully at whether the promised returns compensate adequately for the risks, will also be worried that in seeking to innovate in solving deep-rooted social problems such as crime, drug abuse and so on, the organisations carrying out the schemes may do things that are controversial or reckless—and that some of the blame will rebound on them. Another worry is that not all social impacts are as easy to measure as reconviction rates, so investors may tend to back schemes whose success is easy to measure (and easy to achieve) rather than ones that tackle the most challenging problems. Social Finance hopes that the launch of the bonds will be a catalyst for lots of new work on how better to measure social impact.
Social Finance is already looking at other areas of social policy in which the bonds might work, such as schemes to reduce the numbers of elderly people and vulnerable children going into care homes. David Hutchison, its chief executive, believes the idea has the "potential to unlock an unprecedented flow of finance for social-sector organisations." However, even if the pilot schemes for the bonds do well, it will be a formidable challenge to scale them up to account for a significant portion of state spending on social services. In the long run, much will depend on whether mainstream private investors can be persuaded that it is worth the risk of trying to do well by doing good.


Dirt/moisture traps provide an effective barrier against the transfer of moisture and dirt from an instrument under test to the sensitive piston/cylinder assembly of a pneumatic deadweight tester. Unexpected particle contamination or fluid inside the device under test will be prevented from entering the deadweight system, avoiding downtime for maintenance or repair. Designed for operation in the vertical position these traps are simple to dismantle and easy to clean.
This high pressure version is provided with an aluminum central chamber for safety and utilizes the standard test port adapters.


'Strong words of advice' were given to a family who sparked a bomb scare at a Sussex railway station after a 'school project' was flagged up as a suspicious package.
Hove station was evacuated at 9.30am this morning (November 1) and British Transport Police (BTP) closed the station for an hour after the alarm was raised.
BTP said the item was later confirmed to be for a school project, although Sussex Newspapers has seen a Network Rail log which said the item was 'for a prank to be filmed outside MI6 HQ on YouTube'.
A spokesperson for British Transport Police said: "Shortly after 9.30am today, officers were called to Hove station after a suspicious item was found on the station platform.
"BTP were quickly on scene and the item was assessed by officers.
"It transpires the item was made for a school project which inadvertently provoked a security alert.
"Strong words of advice have been given in order to prevent further such alerts.
A Network Rail log of the incident said a member of staff discovered a 'white box with wires in it on platform 2' and that just before 10,30am a woman spoke to a member of staff at Brighton station claiming the package belonged to her and it was 'for a prank to be filmed outside MI6 HQ on YouTube'.
British Transport Police, however, said the item was for a school project.
No trains stopped at the station during the hour that it was sealed off by police.


Three OU women's golfers earned a spot on the 25-member Academic All-Big 12 Women's Golf Team, the conference announced Wednesday.
Valerie Tanguay, a sophomore management major, was one of 21 student-athletes to earn first-team status, which requires a 3.20 GPA or better. This was the first year Tanguay was eligible for the recognition.
Classmates Ana Ruiz, a management major, and Hannah Wood, a business major, each earned a 3.00-3.19 GPA to be named to the four-member second team.
To qualify for the Academic All-Big 12 Team, student-athletes must maintain a 3.00 GPA or higher, either cumulatively or over the two previous semesters, and must have participated in 60 percent of their team's scheduled contests. Freshmen and transfers are not eligible in their first year of academic residence. Senior student-athletes who have participated for a minimum of two years and meet all the criteria except percent of participation are also eligible. First-team members have maintained a 3.20 GPA or higher, while second-team members have earned a 3.00 to 3.19 GPA.
The Sooners return to the course this Saturday in Stillwater, Okla., when they will compete in a match-play event against Oklahoma State at the Karsten Creek Golf Course.


The idea of this activity book came from the children's workshops that Matali Crasset runs at the Centre Pompidou.
Scissors, cutting boards and adhesive tape encourage children to go through the artist's creative process and help bring out their own creativity.
Matali Crasset was born in 1965 and is a French designer. Through her work, she explores the ways of rejecting shape in its absolute meaning, by focusing on flexibility, network, appropriation and modularity among other principles.

The "Gadget"
The Challenges of Plutonium
"Fat Man" Plutonium Bomb
One Microsecond
The Detonators
Video of The Challenges of Plutonium
J. Robert Oppenheimer, who served as director of the Los Alamos laboratory during World War II, recalls the challenges of designing an atomic bomb that would use plutonium as the primary fissile material. To learn about the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, please see "Bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki."
Narrator: In the spring of 1944, J. Robert Oppenheimer considered resigning as director of the laboratory. Designing a bomb that would work with plutonium in time to be used in the war seemed impossible. Oppenheimer reorganized the lab to double down on designing the plutonium bomb. As he explains, this was one of the most challenging parts of the project.
J. Robert Oppenheimer: Well, I think the set of problems connected with implosion was the most difficult. It required very new experimental techniques, and it was not a branch of physics which anyone was very familiar with.
This was both from a theoretical, from an observational, and from a practical point of view quite an adventure. It was still a very reasonable opinion that one of the many things that were needed to make it work was not completely in order on July 16 [1945].
The doubts which then existed were not of the metaphysical quality [laughter]. We had always had this in mind as a possibly more effective and more sensible way to assemble the bomb.
"Fat Man" Plutonium Bomb
Video of "Fat Man" Plutonium Bomb
Richard Rhodes, author of "The Making of the Atomic Bomb," explains why Manhattan Project scientists could not use plutonium for a gun-type bomb. He also describes how the implosion method for the plutonium "Fat Man" bomb worked. To learn about the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, please see "Bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki."
Narrator: The "Fat Man" bomb was much more complicated than Little Boy. Author Richard Rhodes explains why Manhattan Project scientists couldn't use plutonium for the gun-type bomb, and how the implosion method worked.
Richard Rhodes: There was a crucial point in the program at Los Alamos in the summer of 1944 when it was realized that plutonium—of which you needed a lot less than highly enriched uranium to make a bomb—was so fissile, that if you tried to use the standard design that was going to be used for the uranium bomb, which was basically a three-inch navy cannon about six feet long with one piece of uranium attached to the muzzle, and another piece was a sort of bullet fired up the barrel to mate with the other piece to make a critical mass and start the bomb going.
If you tried to do that with plutonium, they discovered that summer, this piece would melt down before it even got up to the other end of the barrel, even if it were fired at three thousand feet per second. That's how reactive plutonium was.
Then they realized that they were going to have to invent an entirely new technology, one that would involve taking a solid ball of plutonium that was just subcritical, squeeze it with high explosives to almost double its normal density, thereby pushing the atoms of plutonium closer together and making the chain reaction possible, making, if you will, the critical mass much smaller because it's denser.
Video of Perfect Timing
Physics professor and Manhattan Project expert Bruce Cameron Reed describes why the "Fat Man" atomic bomb's 32 explosives lenses had to be triggered simultaneously for the bomb to work as designed. To learn about the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, please see "Bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki."
Narrator: The implosion design looked like a soccer ball on the outside, with 32 lenses fitted to form a sphere. The lenses are made of a mixture of explosives, and surround a baseball-sized core of plutonium. As physics professor Bruce Cameron Reed explains, detonating all the lenses at exactly the same time was crucial to produce an effective explosion.
Bruce Cameron Reed: Consider a spherical lump of plutonium about the size of a softball sitting in my hand. To trigger the nuclear explosion, this has to be compressed to a higher density. Then the issue becomes, how do you compress a metal maybe to half of its initial volume? This requires an enormous amount of pressure.
The technique they developed for achieving this was to essentially wrap it in segments of explosives in a three-dimensional assembly. Think of sort of pyramid-like chunks of explosives that would fit together like a three-dimensional jigsaw puzzle, which when detonated would blow inward to crush this thing.
Given the speed of the explosive, they all had to trigger within a microsecond. There were 32 segments surrounding that core altogether. If the implosion is say a little off-centered, the core might shoot out one side, and you get a much less efficient nuclear explosion.
Narrator: If any of the explosives lense charges were misfired by even a microsecond, then the bomb could be a dud.
Video of Pie in the Sky
Nobel Prize-winning physicist Val Fitch recalls working on the timing apparatus electronics for the "Fat Man" bomb. Nuclear archaeologist John Coster-Mullen explains why it was so challenging for Manhattan Project scientists to engineer simultaneous detonators. To learn about the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, please see "Bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki."
Narrator: Val Fitch was a young recruit assigned to the plutonium or "Fat Man" bomb. Without modern electronics or computers, Fitch and his colleagues had to figure out how to simultaneously detonate the lenses around the plutonium core. Fitch went on to become a Nobel Prize-winning physicist.
Val Fitch: We were detonating explosives in such a way as to produce a shockwave, a spherical shockwave going inward to compress, in this case, plutonium to a critical point. Timing of all these explosive lenses is all-important. I was very much involved in developing the timing apparatus, measuring when the shockwave passes a certain point. We developed the electronics for doing that, and also made some of the measurements.
Narrator: The challenges of the task were enormous, as atomic bomb expert John Coster-Mullen explains.
John Coster-Mullen: When you think back on it now, that whole design, it was pie in the sky. I call them "garage bombs" or glorified science fair experiments. They didn't know if any of this was going to work. This was all a big, giant experiment. Each of these individual components had to work perfectly. The primary thing were the detonators all going off within a microsecond of each other.
The fact that they got it down to a microsecond, which is a millionth of a second, simultaneity between these things—you look back on that now, and it's absolutely, stunningly remarkable that they were able to do this.
The "Gadget" was the implosion plutonium device detonated in the Trinity Test in July 1945. Manhattan Project scientists had to overcome difficult scientific and engineering challenges to design and build the Gadget.

Netflix's The Punisher finally has a release date (and a new trailer) – AiPT!
Netflix has released a second official trailer for The Punisher, the latest series from themselves and Marvel set in gritty New York City. Frank Castle joins other Marvel properties Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and Iron Fist, who collectively made up The Defenders earlier this year.
The Punisher has been highly anticipated, especially after actor Jon Bernthal did such a great job with the role in the second season of Daredevil. The release of the series has been pretty secretive, though, and shrouded in controversy: Marvel was set to premiere the first episode of the show at New York Comic Con earlier this month, but the mass shooting in Las Vegas caused them to reconsider glorifying a cold-blooded murderer so quickly.
At the end of the trailer above, we finally have a release date: November 17, 2017. In less than a month you'll be able to witness all the vigilante justice you can handle.


A new housing plan for Peterborough will help tackle speculative developers who seek to exploit poor planning from local councils, it is claimed.
Peterborough City Council's cabinet agreed to begin looking at a new Local Plan which will identify areas for housing development.
The council recently boasted that the highest number of homes in a single year had been built in the city going back for a quarter of a century.
But it is wary about protecting itself from developers who will look to build homes on land which is not designated as suitable by the council.
Mr Machen added that councils have a government requirement to demonstrate a five year housing supply plan.
If that does not happen, then should a council refuse an application for housing by a developer, the authority is likely to be defeated on appeal as it cannot claim it has sufficient housing in place.
The cabinet today (Monday, July 20) agreed that a timetable should be set up for the new Local Plan which will take three years to produce.
Councillors highlighted other authorities which had been hit by unwanted developments due to not having a sufficient five-year plan in place.
Current plans for development include the 5,350-home Great Haddon development in Yaxley which received final approval in January, but is believed to be 15 years away from completion.
There were 1,352 new homes built in Peterborough in 2014/15, with 10 knocked down.
Of the homes built, 507 properties (more than a third) were affordable housing.

UTICA — Clinton Township Chippewa Valley's football team broke a five-game losing streak against Utica Eisenhower with a 45-24 victory against the Eagles Sept. 7 at Swinehart Field.
It was the first Macomb Area Conference Red Division game of the season for both squads.
With the win, the Big Reds improved to 3-0 on the season.
Although any win in a nine-week regular season can be big, there was something different about beating Eisenhower (1-2).
"Last time we beat (them) was 2013," said Chippewa coach Scott Merchant. "We've had some great games with (them), but they kind (of) had our number, so it's nice to kind (of) get that monkey off our back. … This is what the MAC Red's all about. They're (a) great football team. They're well coached, they got good players."
After the Eagles scored to trim Chippewa's lead to 31-24, senior running back Ja'Von Kimpson helped give his team a 14-point lead with a 2-yard run into the end zone.
Senior Andre Chenault helped seal the victory for his team with a 5-yard touchdown run late in the quarter.
Chippewa also scored the first touchdown of the game when quarterback Tommy Schuster connected with receiver David Ellis on a 9-yard scoring play in the first.
The Eagles answered back on a 4-yard touchdown run by quarterback Blake Rastigue.
The score was 7-7 after the first quarter of play.
In the second, Chippewa re-gained the lead on a 22-yard pass play from Schuster to Daniel Stout.
Eisenhower followed that up with its biggest play of the game when Rastigue connected with receiver Ian Kennelly on 63-yard scoring play.
The Big Reds led 17-14 at the half.
Ellis accounted for both of Chippewa's touchdowns in the third, with one coming on a short run and the other on a kickoff return.
Chippewa took a 31-17 lead into the fourth.
Eisenhower's last touchdown came on a 4-yard run by Rastigue.
Merchant said his team has "played pretty well in every single second half that we've had this year," and he liked what he saw again on Friday.
"I thought our kids played hard, really physical on both sides of the ball," Merchant said. "We came out in the second half (and) I felt we really got after it. We cleaned up some of our mistakes. We played good football."
Schuster said it was a game Chippewa was targeting.
"Feels great," Schuster said. "We've been looking forward to this one all offseason."
What caused issues for the Eagles on Friday night is what helps make Chippewa perhaps one of the best teams in the state.
"We couldn't keep up with their playmakers; that was the problem," said Eisenhower coach Chris Smith. "But we're (going to) be OK. We got a lot (of) positive things that our team did out here, and a lot (of) things that we did wrong."
There are some specific things Smith would like to see from his team going forward.
"Improving in our playmaking areas, tackling; just growing," he said. "Being a young team you got (to) grow. That's part of what we're trying to do. So, hopefully, every day we get better, and we're better next week than we were this week."
Up next, Eisenhower plays at 7 p.m. Sept. 14 away against Romeo High.
Chippewa plays at 7 p.m. Sept. 14 at home against New Baltimore Anchor Bay.

Sensei Garry Harford - 8th Dan
Garry Harford, full time instructor and KUGB grading examiner, was born in Salford in 1960 and was introduced to Shotokan Karate by a family member back in 1972. He took his KYU gradings under Sensei Sherry then graded to 1st Dan on the 14th March 1976 under Sensei Enoeda. Garry continued to grade under Sensei Enoeda up to his 6th Dan and gained his 7th Dan grading under Sensei Sherry on the 19th May 2007.
Garry trained every day prior to retirement and believes there are no hidden secrets or easy ways to achieve excellence as a karateka. The only way to achieve your best is to train regularly and hard with the best instructors available. Garry regularly travelled to Liverpool to train under Sensei Sherry and Poynton and maintains this practice by training twice a week with Andy Sherry, Frank Brennan and other senior grades.
His introduction to Karate competition was in the last BKCC All Styles Championships back in 1977. Garry was selected as a member of the first Junior KUGB Squad and competed at the 1980 European Senior and Junior Championships held in Bregenz, Austria. He won 1st place in the Junior Team Kata, 1st place in the Senior Kata and was part of the Team Kumite winners too.
His list of achievements include 1st place in Kata and Kumite in the Shotokan Cup and EKB All Styles Kumite Champion in 1987. Garry was also a member of the KUGB team that won the EKB Championship in 1985-88 inclusive. He is very proud to have been a member of the team that for many years dominated European Shotokan Karate Championships.
The highlight of his career was being a member of the team that won the 1990 World Shotokan Championships held in Sunderland.
As a fighter, Garry's style focused on speed, timing and quality of technique which was often displayed in his performances. He was very comfortable using both feet and hands to fight his opponents. Being very agile, he would maximize his kicking ability by making use of Mawashi-geri Chudan and spinning Ushiro-Mawashi-geri.
As an Instructor, Garry's personal sense of fulfilment was achieved in 1978 when his club team, Poynton SKC, won the KUGB National Championships after reaching 3rd place in the two preceding years. More recently, Garry has established his own club, the Shotokan Karate Academy, located in Hulme close to Manchester City Centre and enjoys success through teaching and training students at his clubs.
Garry is also the resident Karate Instructor for Manchester University and has been since he was just 16 years old. The University have won the KUGB Student National Championships several times over the last ten years. Four of the University club members have worked hard under Garry's instruction and are now part of the current England and Great Britain squads. Members have included Stuart Gordon who has won the National Kata several times, Vicky Phillips winner of World Team Champion Kumite, KATA and Kumite Grand Champion of which only one other has achieved this great accolade. In addition Vicky, Stuart, and Dean Field were also KUGB Team KATA Champions winners for six consecutive years!
Garry is a loyal supporter of the KUGB and is keen to contribute to the future success of the organisation. Garry is well known and liked as an Instructor, Grading Examiner and Referee. He often travels to other KUGB clubs and is part of the KUGB Referee contingency for both National and International Competitions. When asked what does Karate and the KUGB mean to him, Garry said:
"The KUGB is an integral part of my life as I have studied and trained Shotokan Karate for the past 39 years. I train and teach almost every day and hope to continue to do so until the day I die. I experience the same desire today to achieve my best as much as I did in my younger years. I truly enjoy training and being challenged by Andy Sherry and Frank Brennan as much as in the early days. I feel I still have a lot to offer students who aspire to gain the expertise and experience that I have gained over the years. Long may it last!"

Cravun History, Family Crest & Coats of Arms
The ancestors of the name Cravun date back to the days of the Anglo-Saxon tribes of Britain. The name is derived from their residence at Craven, a district in North Yorkshire which traces back to the Domesday Book of 1086 where it was listed as Crave. [1] Craven is thought to come from an old Brythonic word, a precursor of the Welsh word "craf" or "garlic." [2]
Early Origins of the Cravun family
The surname Cravun was first found in North Yorkshire (West Riding) at Craven where "the surname has for centuries been very strongly represented. " [3]
One of the first records of the name was found here, specifically John de Crauene who was listed in the Curia Regis Rolls of 1166. [4] The Yorkshire Poll Tax Rolls of 1379 listed the following: Agnes de Craven; Johannes de Crauen; and Roger de Craven. Robert de Craven was rector of Bolton-juxta-Bowland in 1304. [3]
Some of the family were also found at Great Washbourn in Gloucestershire. "It comprises 650 acres, the whole, with the exception of about 100 acres, the property of the Craven family." [5]
And another branch was found at Winwick in Northamptonshire. "The church is in the early English style, with a tower, and contains some handsome monuments of the Craven family. Some remains of an old mansion in the parish have been converted into a farmhouse." [5]
The Irish McRaven variant is actually an Anglicization of the Irish name Mac Crabhain and was found chiefly in Louth- Monaghan. [6]
Important Dates for the Cravun family
This web page shows only a small excerpt of our Cravun research. Another 158 words (11 lines of text) covering the years 1166, 1332, 1664, 1608, 1697, 1610, 1770, 1825, 1585, 1618, 1610, 1618, 1608, 1697, 1668, 1711, 1702 and 1711 are included under the topic Early Cravun History in all our PDF Extended History products and printed products wherever possible.
Cravun Spelling Variations
Cravun has been spelled many different ways. Before English spelling became standardized over the last few hundred years, spelling variations in names were a common occurrence. As the English language changed in the Middle Ages, absorbing pieces of Latin and French, as well as other languages, the spelling of people's names also changed considerably, even over a single lifetime. Many variations of the name Cravun have been found, including Craven, Cravene, Cravin, Cravine, Craevin and many more.
Early Notables of the Cravun family (pre 1700)
Notables of this surname at this time include: Sir William Craven (c. 1585-1618), an English merchant, Lord Mayor of London in 1610 (perhaps 1618); some people believe that the story of Dick Whittington is based on Craven's career, and he is...

Migration of the Cravun family to Ireland
Some of the Cravun family moved to Ireland, but this topic is not covered in this excerpt.
Migration of the Cravun family
In an attempt to escape the chaos experienced in England, many English families boarded overcrowded and diseased ships sailing for the shores of North America and other British colonies. Those families hardy enough, and lucky enough, to make the passage intact were rewarded with land and a social environment less prone to religious and political persecution. Many of these families became important contributors to the young colonies in which they settled. Early immigration and passenger lists have documented some of the first Cravuns to arrive on North American shores: Richard Craven who settled in Virginia in the year 1626; Susan Craven who settled in the same Colony in the year 1655; and Thomas, aged 17; who settled in the year 1655. Many of the name also landed at Philadelphia in the year 1805..

As they probe the skin for blood, sand flies inject saliva that prevents hemostasis. Sand fly saliva also promotes leishmaniasis by suppressing immunologic functions of macrophages. Saliva of Phlebotomus papatasi, the vector of Old World cutaneous leishmaniasis, contains adenosine and AMP. We show that Ph. papatasi saliva as well as pure adenosine down-regulate the expression of the inducible nitric oxide (NO) synthase gene in activated macrophages. In addition Ph. papatasi, but not Lutzomyia longipalpis, saliva inhibits the production of NO. Taken together, these data suggest that salivary adenosine is responsible for the down-regulation of NO synthesis. Saliva of both genera Phlebotomus and Lutzomyia contains significant levels of endogenous protein phosphatase-1/2A-like activity that is heat labile, inhibitable by okadaic acid and calyculine a, and does not require divalent cations.

Digital Democracy E-voting suffers another setback amid expat Swiss concerns
By Urs Geiser
For the time being, e-voting will not become a regular option for Swiss citizens to participate in democratic decisions.
(Keystone/Christian Beutler)
The government has decided to suspend efforts to enshrine electronic voting in Swiss law, but it plans to continue trials using improved systems. The expatriate Swiss community is alarmed by the announcement.
A consultation among political parties and the 26 cantons, as well as a series of technical flaws in the current systems, has led the government to review its policy on e-voting, according to the Federal Chancellorexternal link Walter Thurnherr.
"Opinions are clearly divided. The cantons have come out in favour, but the parties are against," he told a news conference on Thursday. "This means there is not sufficient support at the moment for the introduction of e-voting on a legal basis."
Thurnherr added that the series of limited e-voting trials underway since 2004 will continue unless "citizens or politicians decide otherwise", though he also acknowledged that public opposition has grown since the tide started turning against e-voting two years ago.
Recently, a committee launched a people's initiative for a five-year e-voting moratorium amid the controversial discovery of technical problems in the two e-voting systems currently in use.
Nevertheless, Thurnherr claimed that the consultation procedure showed "support in principle for e-voting" and that the expatriate Swiss community in particular – which makes up about 10% of the electorate – had great hopes for the technology.
E-votingexternal link would complement the other two options available for Swiss citizens to use their direct democratic rights: the postal vote and going to the polls.
Trial basis
The government wants to continue to use the online-voting channel on a trial basis, according to Thurnherr.
"The cantonal authorities remain free to grant e-voting to a limited number of citizens if the system in use fulfils the necessary conditions," he said.
The Federal Chancellery has been mandated to cooperate with the cantons to seek a reform of the trials by the end of 2020. E-voting has successfully been used in more than 300 tests over the past 15 years, Thurnherr said.
"The aim is the establishment of a stable trial system of the new generation by strengthening independent controls, transparency, trust, and the increased involvement of scientists," a statementexternal link said.
Thurnherr added that an audit of the only system currently available in Switzerland, operated by Swiss Post, would be evaluated over the next few months to see whether it can still be ready for the October 2019 parliamentary elections.
The other system previously in use, developed by canton Geneva and used by three other cantons, was shelved for security reasons earlier this month.
Thursday's government decision is "wise and logical" according to Ardita Driza Maurer, a researcher in political rights and new voting technologies at the Centre for Democracy Studies in Aarau.
"It takes into account the results of the recent public intrusion tests; the planned introduction of e-voting is adapted to increased security demands."
In a first reaction, the Organisation of the Swiss Abroad external link(OSA), representing the interests of some 760,000 expatriate Swiss around the world, has expressed consternation and has criticised the government move.
"It amounts to a denial of democratic rights of the expatriate Swiss citizens," a statement read.
The OSA said it was concerned that the government announcement is the beginning of the end of e-voting altogether.
Last November, the organisation handed in a petition with over 11,000 signatures calling for electronic voting to be made available to all Swiss living overseas by 2021.
Meanwhile, the government announcement does not go far enough for a cross-party committee collecting signatures for a people's initiative that would bring an effective end to e-voting.
"The committee welcomes the decision for a e-vote moratorium. But the temporary suspension is not enough," the groupexternal link said. Since March it has been canvassing to collect the 100,000 signatures necessary for a people's initiative.
"The moratorium has to be enshrined in the constitution to ensure that vote tampering can be excluded in nationwide ballots," it added.
'Make Swiss democracy safe again' How e-voting became a fight for democracy
After years of tests, Swiss e-voting is at a crossroads. The government wants to extend it; a cross-party campaign wants to stop it altogether.
