Broadway Across Canada launches new season in January 2021

Broadway Across Canada's new season will now begin on Jan. 19, 2021. Anastasia will kick off the postponed 2021 season taking place at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre. Tickets and subscriptions are available now at the Broadway Across Canada website.
Based on the hit 1997 animated cinematic drama of the same name, the 2016 musical has music and lyrics by Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty with a book by Terrance McNally. It tells the legend of the Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikolaevna of Russia, who could have escaped the execution of her family during the Russian Revolution. The show will run Jan. 19 to 24.
Next up is the multiple award-winning Come From Away, March 9 to 21.
Written by Tony nominees Irene Sankoff and David Hein, the show tells of the kindness showed by the people of Gander, Newfoundland and Labrador, who took in 7,000 travellers stranded by the 9/11 attacks. This story is meant to serve as a reminder that there is a capacity for humanity to triumph over hate in the darkest of times. It's a fairy tale based in truth.
Hamilton, which tells the story of U.S. founding father Alexander Hamilton, traces his life from leaving the Caribbean plantation island of Nevis to arrive in the colonies just in time for the Revolutionary War. With music, lyrics and book by Lin-Manuel Miranda, the show is one of the most award-winning works this century. It took home a Pulitzer Prize for drama. It runs from June 22 to July 25.
The season ends with that classic chestnut Jesus Christ Superstar, Oct. 21 to 25.
Rocking right out of 1970, this acclaimed show by Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice is based around the Gospels accounts of the final few weeks of the life of Jesus. Delving into '70s style therapy trends, the story incorporates a lot of interpersonal dialogues between Judas Iscariot and other disciples and attempts to delve deeper into characters' motivations for their actions leading up to the crucifixion.
A bit of trivia about Jesus Christ Superstar is that future Deep Purple lead singer Ian Gillian had his breakout role singing on the original 1970 concept album prior to becoming one of the most successful frontmen in hard rock history. Musical star Tim Neeley also rose to fame playing the role of Jesus.

An estimate for the boundaries of a rectangular region containing all (if any) roots with a positive real part of the characteristic equation of a given age-structured model is derived. A method for checking the stability of steady states of such equations based on the argument principle is then proposed. A general introduction to Berry's phase is given. Connections to twin paradoxes, the Aharonov-Bohm effect and the Dirac monopole, are made. Optical forms of this phase are Air Jordan Store Montreal discussed, with emphasis on an early optical fiber experiment, and a recent interference experiment using a nonplanar Mach-Zehnder interferometer. Connection to quantum measurements is also made. Through the use of highly purified d-amino acid oxidase and ionexchange chromatography a procedure has been developed for the determination of certain d-amino acids in the presence of their l-isomers. The Jordan Retro 5 method is particularly useful for the analysis of samples which contain relatively large quantities of d-amino acids and is not applicable to samples containing only trace amounts. In the USA, USFilter has been selected to upgrade the Stevens Pass Wastewater Treatment Plant with a MemJet immersed membrane bioreactor (MBR) system.This is a short news story only.

Q: How to express "Cela comptera moins"? (What are the most important objectives and those that'll count less) In the French sentence:

Quels sont les objectifs les plus importants et ceux qui compteront moins ?

That I can approximately translate into:

What are the most important objectives and those that'll count less?

I'm quite sure that the translation count less is quite inappropriate or at least weird for English natives, isn't it?
How should I translate it? I want to ask in my question what are the most important goals, and what are those that'll be the least important, that'll "count less", that'll matter less.

A: There are various options, depending on the context in which the phrase is being used. Literally, "cela compera moins" translates to to something like "that's not so important" - which might be appropriate. But the implicit meaning given in the question suggests constructions like "that should not be our priority" (when planning some course of action eg in business) or "that has less impact" when comparing outcomes.

I want to ask in my question what are the most important goals, and what
  are those that'll be the least important

Why not ask "which are our most important goals, and which are lower priority/will have less impact"? Of course, that's a bit wordier than "cela compera moins".

A: From a comment that was under the question:

My sentence wanted to ask for the best objectives and the worst, those "in the middle" are not wanted :)

In that case, a paraphrased translation would be preferable to a literal one. (Like many translations, it's better if it's not just word for word.)
Something like this would work:

What are the objectives that are the most and least important?

Gender Equality Nigeria Project #38343
Build the Agency of 150 Adolescent Girls and Women
by Education as a Vaccine
Empowering Adolescent Girls and Young Women
By Okonkwo Chinelo - Program manager
Education as a Vaccine is working on a project to build the agency of Adolescent girls and young women (AGYW). Through this project, 28 adolescent girls and young women have been trained on sexual and reproductive health issues, including gender-based violence as well as the platforms that exist for reporting cases of sexual and gender-based violence(SGBV). The AGYW were selected from 3 different communities in Kaduna State and are between the ages of 15 to 24 years. Due to increased vulnerability of girls who do not have education and skills, the capacity building incorporated vocational training activity where the girls and young women were taught how to make liquid soap to help them build their skill to be self-reliant.
During this quarter, 18 of the facilitators have been able to reach 180 other AGYW in the communities with sexual and reproductive health information, promoting their right to bodily autonomy and their understanding of SGBV issues. EVA has also supported the facilitators to step down the skills acquired during the vocational training to their different cohorts. Through the safe space approach, the girls are able to discuss issues that affect them in their various communities and report back to EVA for more support.
With continuous support and your kind donations, EVA will work with Kaduna state ministry of women affairs to link the AGYW to other opportunities that exist in the state to increase their access to services. These donations will also help to enroll some of these girls who are willing to go back to school.

Half of the music is great, half of it is not to my taste, but all the guitars are beautiful.
From: Donuel
Wow, its top notch.
Is there anyone ever with a voice as refined as Patsy Cline / Virginia Hensly?
From: Stringsinger
Glad to know that the African-American influence was covered in the Burns show.
I'll watch it now.
Did Burns cover the evolution of the pedal steel guitar? It is so identified with the genre, Noel Boggs, Joachim Miller, Leon MacAuliffe, Buddy Emmons........
It was the fiddle, and not the banjo that was used mostly on the plantations by black musicians. It's notable that Big Bill Bronzy started in Georgia as a fiddler. The fiddle playing might be a fusion of Northern Ireland, Scotland and Southern African-Americans during slavery. Did Burns cover this?
From: robomatic
I didn't get into the series as it began. Caught one of the episodes two nights ago, the one where Johnny Cash plays at Folsom Prison and revives his career. It also mentioned Loretta Lynn, Merle Haggard, and Charley Pride. Realy enjoyed what I saw and I expect the series to be repeated more than once on public broadcasting (which has had its state contribution funds cut by our Governor).
From: gillymor
Do you wear that dress to the grange? :^)
It was a good episode tonight and it is vintage Ken Burns & Co.
From: GUEST,Larry W Jones - Kingwood Kowboy
I've watched the series through #5. Three more to go. Best series I've ever seen on PBS. Here's one Johnny Cash missed:
Working Man Blue Collar Blues (Larry W Jones 04/21/2019) (song #7515)
Now, it's a job raising a family of nine
Been a hard working man on the assembly line
From nine to five I think I've paid my dues
I've got the working man blue collar blues
Got my nose to the grindstone every working day
Hard on the backbone but wife and kids need my pay
Weekends off but Monday with the crew
I need a change but ain't no other jobs around
The local grange is the only support in town
Bought one new dress and nine pairs of shoes
A blue collar man, a blue collar man like me
Small town dollars but not on welfare will I be
A strong back and calloused hands to use
From: RTim
Not sure I can watch much of the later episodes....the songs are so Trite and Ugly I just can't listen to them...all the whiney voices and steel guitars plus the false breaks and emotion in the voices...all I really hate about Modern Country music...give me the early stuff anytime....
Tim Radford
From: GUEST,Jerome Clark
Long ago, I got into folk music through Flatt & Scruggs and Johnny Cash and was familiar with honkytonk country before that. I know a fair amount about the genre from many sources. I say this as a preface to my remarks, which contrast with other contributors' here admitting their lack of knowledge of the music.
Having seen the first five episodes, I have to say the series is an improvement on what I thought it would be, namely relentless white-washing and sentimentalizing. Which is not to say there's none of that, or really, it wouldn't be Ken Burns. Perhaps understandably, he focuses on the best of a genre which overwhelmingly produced forgettable music, affirming once again the wisdom of Sturgeon's Law: 95% of everything is crap.
On the positive side Burns makes sure to give the African-American influence its full due. On the other side, he makes something of a hero of hardcore racist Faron Young by pointing to a single, though not insubstantial, noble act: befriending Charley Pride when the latter first arrived in Nashville. I've learned little that I didn't already know, but the photographs and footage have often been a revelation.
In short, the series is worth watching if you can abide Burns's characteristic pieties.
From: keberoxu
Don't know what episode I sat through last night,
as I tuned in after it began.
Jeannie C. Riley singing Tom T. Hall's "Harper Valley PTA,"
which I am old enough to remember from the first time around.
Nice to encounter the songwriter who wrote
"Don't Touch Me (If You Don't Love Me),"
which I first heard, memorably sung, by Roy Clark.
It greatly interested me to learn more about
Buck Owens and his Buckaroos, and how they
were actually ground-breaking in their youth;
from my television-watching childhood,
I only knew Buck Owens from the "Hee Haw" show.
From: GUEST,HiLo
Hi Neil D;
I would not put Steely Dan in the same category as the Eagles. Steely Dan is pure pop genius; The Eagles are pure Pop.

I am sure that Gene Autry's wealth came more from his successful film career and the fact that he invested his money into the right places.
You can't go wrong investing in a brewery. People will always drink: when times are good they drink to celebrate; when times are bad they drink to drown their sorrows.
And why does my cookie disappear every single day?
From: GUEST,Hootenanny
He did also make other recording apart from "Rudolf" starting out as a Jimmy Rogers imitator as did Ernest Tubb.
It might be worth mentioning that the Carters fared better than many other people recording at that time thanks to Ralph Peer.
From: meself
Speaking of Patsy Cline, she was very wary of crossing the line separating "Country" from "Pop". In fact, she had to be forced, pretty much, to record those songs that became such huge crossover hits (Walking After Midnight, etc.). She wanted to keep yodelling, and wearing her cowgirl outfits, but got pressured out of both.
From: GUEST,keberoxu
Still reverberant in my memory is that
"Hard Times" episode
without having watched any others.
And what is sticking in my memory / craw is
the contrast between the Carter Family
the fantastic wealth and success of Gene Autry
whose career was covered in some detail on that second episode
(they did not, however,
dignify 'Rudolph the Red-Nose Reindeer' with a mention).
So my question is - Where does American Folk Music End and Country Music begin........
(A little tongue in cheek...)
Further to the above posting Stringsinger mentions merle Travis's influence Mose Rager. I am pretty sure that he wasn't black either.
A couple of posts on mudcat seem to imply that Bill Monroe's Uncle Pendleton Vandiver (his mother's brother)was black. There appears to be some confusion here. Bill did admit to black influence but it wasn't from uncle Pen. Try Arnold Schultz, guitar and fiddle player.
From: Neil D
Have a bit more faith in Ken Burns, String. He's not a documentarian who would overlook the black influence on Country. Not only does he comprehensively cover DeFord Bailey and mention Uncle Pen's influence on Monroe, he also talks about Esley Riddle and his influence on the Carters, the black railroad workers that Jimmie Rodgers fetched water for and Rufus "Tee-Tot" Payne whom Hank called his only teacher. Also covered is the Ray Charles impact and yes indeed, the incredible Rhiannon Giddens is one of the commentators.
I have enjoyed it so far but I don't know how much of the final four installments I will watch. Like many here I'm not a fan of modern Country. I've always thought the genre went way to commercial and the series did slightly touch on this. That in the '50s as the music became more and more centered in Nashville there was a definite and unabashed trend towards mass appeal which took the sound away from its roots, too polished, canned if you will.
I feel the same way about rock music in the '70s. As bands like the Eagles and Steely Dan created California Cool with its "production value" and studio homogenization, it completely lost my interest. That's why I felt that Punk Rock for all its perceived lack of virtuosity was a badly needed breath of fresh air. What's Rock and Roll without its rough edges and what's Country without its rusticism.
I originally said I would watch until Hank died, but ended up sticking around til Patsy Cline passed. Not much in Country Music really interested me after that. I'm somewhat interested to see if Doc Watson gets any love in the next segment.
From: GUEST,bernieandred
As a couple of catters have pointed out, The Maddox Bros & Rose were given much more detailed treatment in the episode AFTER the one I criticised!! Shows that maybe it's best to see the full series before passing judgement.
Also, in last nights episode, great to see Felice & Boudlaux (sp?) Bryant getting lots of recognition. Don't think I've even seen/heard them mentioned in any similar mainstream TV show.
From: Mrrzy
I've been seeing bits and pieces and it looks excellent. There is a review here:
https://slate.com/culture/2019/09/country-music-ken-burns-pbs-documentary-series-review.html
O where o where is the Submit button?
From: Ebbie
I think of today's 'country' as Pop Country, although I have heard some really good voices singing it. It's just not the country content that I'm used to.
I have watched all the programs so far. Finished up to 1963 tonight.
All in all, I am happy with it. They couldn't possibly show all the performers of the time but they've given it a good try. Along the way, I'e learned some things I hadn't known or had forgotten. At my age, a lot of the information and the songs was contemporaneous with me but it feels good to be reminded.
From: Kingwood Kowboy
I have watched the first 4 of the 5 segments. Good so far. I can only hope that the 5th final segment will NOT feature "new country" so-called country music which I refuse to listen to. I'd rather fade away as so many have, than to listen to the Now sound.

I'm not sure that the 'firing' of DeFord Bailey was quite as straightforward as is often implied (I didn't catch what was said about it in the doc). As I recall, the Opry was making changes to its format, and they wanted Bailey to change along with it, which he was, apparently, unwilling or unable to do. It became one of those 'You can't fire me, 'cause I quit!'/'You can't quit, 'cause you're fired!' situations.
Those are my impressions based on things I read and half-remember. I'm no authority on the matter, and am willing to stand corrected.
But, yes, DeFord Bailey was one of the early giants of the harmonica, famous in his day, but largely forgotten outside the world of harmonica-players.
DeFord Bailey is the very artist
whose name I could not remember,
as I was hearing of him for the very first time,
while watching the broadcast.
This is not the first episode I am speaking of, which I missed.
The only episode I have seen is
"Hard Times," Episode Two,
in which Mavis Staples,
the proud surviving member of the African-American Staples Singers,
sings Stephen Foster's song -- the first performance in the episode.
We don't see footage of Ms. Staples, we just hear her voice with piano.
And it is DeFord Bailey of whom
Wynton Marsalis speaks, providing commentary to that episode.
The episode includes the film footage
of DeFord Bailey's return to the Grand Ole Opry
many years after he had been let go;
it is footage of a live performance,
the artist with his harmonica at the microphone,
playing and vocalizing simultaneously,
concluding to thunderous live applause.
A memorable introduction for a newbie like me
who has never before heard of DeFord Bailey,
and one that will stick in my memory --
I will make it a point to remember him.
DeFord Bailey was more than 'mentioned', actually; he was given fulsome treatment - bio, photos, music. Uncle Pen's relationship with Bill Munro was discussed, although I don't recall his race being mentioned - was he Black? Rhianna Gidens was commenting. Merle Travis and Elvis weren't featured in the bit I saw, nothing said about their influences.
Why would you "doubt there's a mention of African-American country music performers", just out of curiosity?
From: Stilly River Sage
They have addressed many of the African American mentors to these musicians, though they don't tend to step back and play any of their performances (if any are extant).
There was plenty of attention given to the black influence on country music in the first episode, the only one I've seen thus far, including mention of DeFord Bailey. You might be able to comment more accurately if you'd actuaaly watched it.
I haven't seen it yet but I doubt there's a mention of African-American country music performers such as DeFord Bailey playing the Panama Express who was the first performer on Judge Hays' Grand Ol'Opry. Was it mentioned that Merle Travis learned from black man Mose Rager or that Bill Monroe from Uncle Pen and Elvis from
Big Boy Croodup? Then there's Charley Pride and the Georgia Yellow Hammers.
And the revival group North Carolina Chocolate Drops with Rhianon Gidens.
I think it can be shown that the Southern accent is a derivative of African-American
speech.
From: Seamus Kennedy
Actually, the Maddox Bros. and Rose were mentioned and their Nudie suits featured prominently in the segment.
There is a tremendous amount of material covered in this series. They DO show the Maddox Bros. & Rose outfits, there was mention of the
NUDIE outfits. Perhaps too dense to take it all in for a single viewing. But also much left out - how can they include everything?
On another blog, the opinion was expressed that far too much time was given to Carter Family & Jimmy Rodgers. They are the foundation
of the explosion of popularity for country music, so deserve significant coverage. Perhaps too much for those who know the work, but maybe right for newbies... ?
I am particularly dismayed by the mutilation of the visual material - tonight footage of Hank Williams with his head cut off, it seems they
think tha audience is too ignorant to recognize that old film and TV
footage when properly displayed will have black bars on the sides (pillarboxed). The work of the artists who made these films is destroyed by chopping them down to a widescreen format.
Music is included, much in the background under the commentary - such is the way with documentaries. All the major artists recorded prolifically, so obtaining the music (youtube, cd's, video) is not a problem.
As the series unfolds, various performers and genres are revisited so there may be a cumulative bounty realized after seeing all the episodes.
Last night I watched
"Hard Times 1933 - 1945," which was the second episode.
Subtle approach to the issue of racism and 'apartheid' in the US.
Stephen Foster's "Hard Times" was sung, full length, while the narration either talked over the singing
or highlighted certain verses.
And who sang, accompanied on piano? None other than
Mavis Staples of the Staples Singers.
And a gritty, soulful interpretation it was, too.
The name escapes me, but another artist
sang and performed with the Delmore Brothers,
and he was African-American, and proud of it.
As long as he was on the road with the Brothers,
they looked after him like one of their own,
and his case was singled out for attention in this episode.
With the ascent of the Grand Ole Opry at Ryman Auditorium in Nashville,
an institution was born, so was an establishment of the power-holding elite
that goes with such an institution.
And that same artist with the Delmore Brothers,
who was one of the founding performers of the shows,
was summarily fired.
The episode includes footage of
Wynton Marsalis talking about this artist and his story;
and his triumphant return performance, MANY years later,
was filmed,
and the footage shown in the episode.
Reckon that in future episodes
much will be made of singer Charley Pride.
I saw the first episode and thought it was great. I was unable to view the 2nd but fortunately it's available for streaming at pbs.org.
From: Vincent Jones
The Ken Burns programmes on jazz were an excellent introduction to the genre - I look forward to seeing the country music progs when/if they're shown in Britain.
I've watched 2 episodes. Not very impressed. Bob Wills was one of the featured performers in tonights episode, but there was no video of him performing! There is lots available on line. This seems to apply to almost all of the featured performers. maybe it's a rights issue.They also made a big deal about how popular The Maddox Bros & Rose were, & yet none of their middle period music was played & no visuals of their "nudie" type outfits,which were a big part of their groundbreaking appeal.In fact there was really no mention as to why they were such a big act!
Ken Burns does a great job with these PBS multi part series & I don't like to be negative, but this is not one of his best..
Caught some of it last night - Jimmy Rodgers, Carter Family - great stuff; really 'brought it to life'. I kept wishing for more of the actual music, but of course that's available other places.
From: ChanteyLass
I've caught some of it, and what I've missed I'm sure I'll catch in reruns.
I'm not well-grounded in country music, so I find it interesting and informative.

It's not often discussed but Martina McBride is modern country royalty. She sits on the upper echelon of long-admired modern country women like Faith Hill, Shania Twain and Sara Evans who all follow their heart and not popular trends.
Since her 1992 debut The Time Has Come, McBride has enthralled country music fans with her powerful soprano and songs about life and love in good times and bad. In recent years she scored Top 20 hits with the playful "Teenage Daughters" and the poignant "I'm Gonna Love You Through It," both from her 2011 album Eleven. In 2014 McBride released Everlasting, a set of classic soul and Motown songs which stretched out her musical wings at a time when the bros were dominating country radio.
McBride now returns to her pop country roots with a new album Reckless, and the 49-year-old mother of three has never sounded better.
McBride has always thrived when delving into matters of the heart. Songs like "Low All Afternoon" is full of heartache, while the jaw-dropping "We'll Pick Up Where We Left Off" just solidifies her spot as an emotional lighthouse in modern country music.
Reckless features two notable collaborations, "Diamond," a solid track with Keith Urban, who seems almost underutilized as a vocalist and guitar player, and the sublimely wonderful steel guitar-driven "The Real Thing" with Buddy Miller.
Rounding out the album is the hopeful "Just Around The Corner," the string-tinged "Everyone Wants To Be Loved," and "That's The Thing About Love" which is simply classic McBride goodness that will have you singing along with the chorus upon repeated listens.
If country radio gives "Reckless" a fighting chance, 2016 could be a very big year for Martina McBride. It already is though for fans of this timeless country singer who has returned to her heyday with a powerful and nearly flawless return to form album.

As someone dealing with anxiety — hi pals, isn't this pool getting crowded? — all day, every day, taking CBD oil sounded like something that was at least worth a shot. So, I contacted Charlotte's Web by the Stanley Brothers, a CBD hemp oil company based in Colorado. Their hemp oil had positive reviews, which is good for me and my tattered memories of freshman year. They kindly sent me some of their Everyday Advanced Oil, which they recommend taking 0.6 ml of twice a day. I decide to try it for a week.
Cannabis is a flowering plant that consist of three distinct variations, i.e.: Cannabis Ruderalis, Cannabis Indica, and Cannabis Savita. Strict regulations around Cannabis cultivation exist as a result of it having been used as a recreational drug for the high THC level in certain varieties. However, Cannabis can be utilized for its sturdy fibrous consistency, its richness in nutrients and its medical properties.
CBDPure is one of the only companies that stands by its product. With countless fly-by-night CBD oil scam companies popping up, it's reassuring to know that if for any reason you don't like CBDPure's oil, you're eligible for a full refund. We don't think you'll need it, though: after interviewing patients, reading accounts of anxiety sufferers and their experience with CBDPure, and our own experience with the company, we can confidently say that no other product comes close to providing anxiety relief than CBDPure's Hemp Oil 600.

Delhi NCR most polluted in the world
Pretty, hellish: Delhi NCR's air quality has dipped to such horrific levels that it's now the world's most polluted Capital region | Image credit: EnterpriseBlog
By Editorial Team / March 6, 2019
In a recent study by IQ Air Visual and Greenpeace, Delhi's National Capital Region (NCR) has emerged as the most polluted in the world, with five cities neighbouring Delhi, Gurugram, Ghaziabad, Faridabad, Noida and Bhiwadi ranking the highest. Among the top 20 most polluted cities, 18 were in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh, marking the South Asian region as a global pollution hotspot. While Delhi ranked 11, China's efforts to bring its PM2.5 levels down by 40% since 2013 resulted in Beijing ranking 122. The study further added that Beijing would have ranked 21 if the PM concentrations had remained the same as in 2013.
Study: Stubble burning main contributor of Delhi's deadly air
Crop burning is the main culprit of Delhi's killer air – that's the conclusion of a joint study by Sweden and India. The analysis of 2011 data on biomass burning says black carbon (BC), which is released in the air from the burning of crop residue, is the main contributor to Delhi's polluted winter air. According to the study, burning of biomass and vehicular emissions, both contribute to around 40% each to pollution in Delhi. The research points out that in Chinese megacities, fossil fuel combustion causes around 70% to 80% of pollution. It also says that BC entering Delhi from neighbouring states is around 42% in winter and 36% in autumn.
Meanwhile, India's Supreme Court has directed the Centre to use part of its Rs75,000 crore National Clean Energy and Environment Fund (NCEEF) to buy Turbo Happy Seeder machines for farmers to cut paddy stubble as an alternative to burning it down. Counsel Gopal Shankarnarayanan told the court that the expectation that the farmers would bear the expenses to buy the seeder machines as an alternative to the much cheaper option of burning of stubble was unlikely to succeed, TOI reported.
Up to 66% transport pollution deaths in India associated with diesel
Nearly half (1,81,000) of the premature deaths caused by polluted air in India are from the on-road diesel vehicles, says the the first-ever comprehensive assessment of health impacts of global transport emissions, released by the United States (US)-based International Council of Clean Transportation (ICCT). Times of India reported that although 47% of the deaths were attributed to diesel vehicles, the number went up to as much as 66% in India, Italy, Germany, and France, where diesel engines power a sizeable number of cars. New Delhi ranks sixth among the 100 major urban centres assessed for transport sector-related deaths globally.
Down to Earth reported that "it is worrying that the global health burden of only on-road diesel vehicles is 68% higher than previously estimated for diesel and nitrogen oxide emissions. This estimate now includes the effects of tailpipe PM2.5 as well."
What Russia's green snow reveals about the rise of pollution
A regional governor from Russia was forced to shut down a coal processing plant and chrome factories after pictures went viral of the pollution they were releasing in the air. The Cherkasovskaya coal-processing plant refused to filter its coal dust and instead spilled it in atmosphere making the snow turn black, while the waste from chrome factories turned the snow yellow. Futurism reported that pollution levels in the city of Kiselyovsk rose up to double the safety limits. Residents uploaded pictures and videos of horrible snow pollution on social media.
The governor of the Russian region of Kuzbass, Sergei Tsivilyov, told the coal firms, "You are killing yourself and you are killing all your people who work for you and you are also killing everything around you."
NGT panel inspects 'polluted' Singrauli
India's green court, the National Green Tribunal (NGT), carried out a three-day inspection of the heavily polluted coal district of Singrauli in Madhya Pradesh. Economic Times reported that "industries found polluting the environment may face immediate shutdown based on this panel's report."
The whole district is covered in fly ash and dust caused by road transportation of coal. State data shows dangerous levels of fluoride contaminating water sources in 12 districts of Singrauli, which has forced the government to seal hand pumps and make alternative arrangements for drinking water. ET quotes sources saying, the state governments of UP and MP have not much to address health-related issues that includes silicosis, fluorosis and mercury contamination, the states have not even prepared health status reports of the affected citizens.

Tinubu– I sacrificed my presidential ambition for Buhari
General Chan | Jan 31, 2015 | Foreign | No Comments
Governor, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, The Lagos State former Governor has on Friday
said he had sacrificed his ambition of becoming Nigeria president for the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari. "I sacrificed my presidential ambition for Buhari".
Asiwaju Bola Tinubu stated this while addressing a crowd of All Progressive Congress supporters at the party's presidential rally held in Lagos.
Tinubu said Nigeria was facing an economic crisis and an internal war and needed a person with Buhari's experience because of the General's reputation of anti-corruption and military warfare.
He said,
"People define patriotism as putting the country first but this is what the 'Poverty Development Party' refuses to understand. We chose
Buhari not because Bola Tinubu is not interested in the Presidency. I am capable, competent, qualified, younger and richer but there comes a time that
people must make sacrifices for their nation.
"I prayed that Nigeria would get better and we would not need a man like him (Buhari). But today, we are in a great crisis; we face a lot of challenges. When
South Africa was in a great dilemma and was about to disintegrate, they called Nelson Mandela of 74 years old.
"He used his wisdom to save his country. When the United States was in economic depression, they called 73-year-old Ronald Reagan because he was
frugal and incorruptible.
"When America was faced with depression and war, they called a retired General, Dwight Eisenhower, to rescue the country and the country was returned on a path of success. "When France was faced with war and economic depression, they called a retired General, Charles De Gaul, to rescue the country."
Bola Hammed also added that whether Gen. Muhammadu Buhari presented a certificate or not, he was still qualified to rule the country.
"So what do we need now? Buhari. This is the time for us. General Buhari, whether you are qualified or
not qualified, we are calling you to come and rescue us in Nigeria,"
Also speaking at the rally, the Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babatunde Raji Fashola, said President Goodluck
Jonathan had done nothing for the people of the state despite the fact that the President got over 1.2 million votes from the state in 2011.
Fashola said every project that the Federal Government was supposed to have assisted Lagos in executing
had been frustrated by the Jonathan administration.
He, therefore, asked the people of the state to vote for the All Progressive Congress at all levels.
Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, who was the last person to speak at the rally, said the failure of the PDP-led Federal Government was unprecedented in the history of Nigeria.
GMB said,
"We all know what we have gone through in the past 16 years under the PDP. The APC has
identified three core problems that must be tackled immediately. First is insecurity, two is the destruction of the economy and three is corruption.
"But whatever we have to do, we will have to secure Nigeria first. What is happening in the North-East where hundreds of people are being killed is
unacceptable. We known that the Nigeria Police and the Nigerian Army are capable of bringing peace and stability into the country but they just need good leadership"

Outcry after French court rules on virginity
2008-06-05 06:58:39 GMT 2008-06-05 14:58:39 (Beijing Time) China Daily
Minister for Justice Rachida Dati speaks during the weekly session of question to the government at the French National Assembly in Paris. Dati warned Tuesday that a marriage annulment granted because the bride was not a virgin should not be used to stigmatise France's five-million-strong Muslim population. [Agencies]
PARIS - The bride said she was a virgin. When her new husband discovered that was a lie, he went to court to annul the marriage -- and a French judge agreed.
The ruling ending the Muslim couple's union has stunned France and raised concerns the country's much-cherished secular values are losing ground to cultural traditions from its fast-growing immigrant communities.
The decision also exposed the silent shame borne by some Muslim women who transgress long-held customs demanding proof of virginity on the wedding night.
In its ruling, the court concluded the woman had misrepresented herself as a virgin and that, in this particular marriage, virginity was a prerequisite.
But in treating the case as a breach of contract, the ruling was decried by critics who said it undermined decades of progress in women's rights. Marriage, they said, was reduced to the status of a commercial transaction in which women could be discarded by husbands claiming to have discovered hidden defects in them.
The court decision "is a real fatwa against the emancipation and liberty of women. We are returning to the past," said Urban Affairs Minister Fadela Amara, the daughter of immigrants from Muslim North Africa, using the Arabic term for a religious decree.
The outcry has been unrelenting since word of the April 1 decision in the closed-door trial in Lille was made public last week by the daily newspaper Liberation. In its judgment, the tribunal said the 2006 marriage had been ended based on "an error in the essential qualities" of the bride, "who had presented herself as single and chaste."
Justice Minister Rachida Dati, whose parents also were born in North Africa, initially shrugged off the ruling -- but the public clamor reached such a pitch that she asked the prosecutor's office this week to lodge an appeal.
What began as a private matter "concerns all the citizens of our country and notably women," a statement from her ministry said.
The hitch is that both the young woman and the man at the center of the drama are opposed to an appeal, according to their lawyers. The names of the woman, a student in her 20s, and the man, an engineer in his 30s, have not been disclosed.
The young woman's lawyer, Charles-Edouard Mauger, said she was distraught by the dragging out of the humiliating case. In an interview on Europe 1 radio, he quoted her as saying: "I don't know who's trying to think in my place. I didn't ask for anything. ... I wasn't the one who asked for the media attention, for people to talk about it, and for this to last so long."
The issue is particularly distressing for France because the government has fought to maintain strong secular traditions as demographics change. An estimated 5 million Muslims live in the country of 64 million, the largest Muslim population in Western Europe.
France passed a law in 2004 banning Muslim headscarves and other ostentatious religious signs from classrooms, a move that caused an uproar in the Muslim world.
Now, critics contend another law on the books is being used to effectively condone the custom requiring a woman to enter marriage as a virgin, and prove it with bloodstained sheets on her wedding night.
Article 180 of the Civil Code states that when a couple enters into a marriage, if the "essential qualities" of a spouse are misrepresented, then "the other spouse can seek the nullity of the marriage." Past examples of marriages that were annulled include a husband found to be impotent and a wife who was a prostitute, according to attorney Xavier Labbee.
Ironically, Article 180 also guards against forced marriages.
Labbee, the lawyer for the bridegroom in question, says it was not the young woman's virginity that was at issue.
"The question is not one of virginity. The question is one of lying," he said.
"In the ruling, there is no word 'Muslim,' there is no word 'religion,' there is no word 'custom.' And if one speaks of virginity it is with the term 'a lie."
Labbee said both the man and the woman "understand that annulling the marriage is preferable to divorce because it wipes the slate clean (of) what you want to forget, but divorce wipes away nothing."
Although divorced Muslim women are allowed to remarry, they are expected to be forthcoming with their new husband about the previous marriage, and divorce can carry a cultural stigma for women.
Indeed, the court ruling states that the woman "acquiesced" to the demand for an annulment "based on a lie concerning her virginity."
"One can deduce that this quality (virginity) was seen by her as an essential quality that was decisive" in the man's decision to marry, the ruling said.
Prime Minister Francois Fillon said an appeal must be lodged "so this ruling does not set a judicial precedent." The appeal was filed Tuesday and three judges could hear the case sometime this month, said Eric Vaillant of the appeals court in Douai, near Lille.
In a rare show of agreement, politicians on the left and right said the court's action does not reflect French values.
"In a democratic and secular country, we cannot consider virginity as an essential quality of marriage," said an expert on French secularism, Jacqueline Costa-Lascoux.
The decision underscored the painful predicament faced today by many Muslim women in France and elsewhere in the West who become sexually emancipated but remain bound by strict codes of honor inherited and enforced by their families -- and prospective husbands.
It is not unusual for young Muslim women to procure fake virginity certificates, use tricks like vials of spilled blood on the wedding night or even undergo hymen repair to satisfy family expectations, and evade the shame that would follow if their secret got out.
An informal survey by The Associated Press in 2006 found numerous private clinics in the Paris region where such surgery is performed, as well as doctors who supply fake virginity certificates before a marriage.
"Today, the judicial system of a modern country cannot hold to these savage traditions, completely inhuman for the young woman," said the rector of the Paris Mosque, Dalil Boubakeur.
He likened the court decision to "equating marriage with a commercial transaction."
Like some others, Boubakeur, a moderate, voiced fears that Muslim fundamentalists would seek to profit from the Lille ruling "as they have done with the veil. ... Fundamentalists use (head scarves) like their flag."
"We ask Muslims to live in their era," he said.

Q: Process.waitFor() not waiting for executed shortcuts (.lnk) In Java I want to execute a .lnk shortcut which it self executes a .exe file.
I run the executable like so:
 String currentDir = new File(game.getGamePath()).getCanonicalPath();

 ProcessBuilder processBuild = new ProcessBuilder(currentDir);
 processBuild.command("cmd", "/c", "start" , currentDir);
 Process = processBuild.start();
     try {
        Process.waitFor();
     } catch (InterruptedException ex) {
        Logger.getLogger(AuroraLauncher.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
     }

I want the waitFor() thread blocking method to wait until the actual executed application (.exe file) terminates before it continues not the shortcut. Is there a way to do this simply or do I have to somehow extract the .exe path from the .lnk? if so how would I do that?

A: "start" launches a separate process, so your process is done. But you can extract the actual executable path from the lnk file. take a look at this post.

A: Windows command "start" has an option /wait you must specify to tell him it has to wait for the end of the process.
This code run until you close notepad:
    @Test
    public void run() throws IOException {
        String currentDir = new File(System.getProperty("user.home"),"desktop/notepad.lnk").getCanonicalPath();

        ProcessBuilder processBuild = new ProcessBuilder(currentDir);
        processBuild.command("cmd", "/c", "start","/wait", currentDir);
        Process p= processBuild.start();
        try {
            p.waitFor();
        } catch (InterruptedException ex) {

        }
        System.out.println("process terminated!");

    }

Simpler than to parse the lnk file.

A: Your code certainly won't compile. You should fix it to compile and work as intended:
 Process p = processBuild.start();
 try {
    p.waitFor(); // Ignoring the process result code.
 } catch (InterruptedException ex) {
    Logger.getLogger(AuroraLauncher.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);

Fans celebrate Hillary Clinton as she becomes professor and presidential fellow at Columbia University
Amber Raiken
Fans are congratulating Hillary Clinton on her two new jobs at Columbia University.
The 75-year-old former US Secretary of State will be a professor of the School of International and Public Affairs and a presidential fellow at Columbia World Projects (CWP), as announced in a message to the university's community from President Lee C Bollinger.
In a statement, the politician expressed how excited she was for her new role and praised the school.
"I am honoured to join Columbia University, and the School of International and Public Affairs and Columbia World Projects," she said. "Columbia's commitment to educating the next generation of U.S. and global policy leaders, translating insights into impact, and helping to address some of the world's most pressing challenges resonates."
On social media, many fans and faculty members at Columbia are celebrating Clinton's milestone.
"@HillaryClinton is joking Columbia as a faculty member!!!! wow!!! Super wow!" one wrote.
"Dear @HillaryClinton, We're excited to have you join our great intellectual community at @ColumbiaSIPA - Looking forward to your ideas & contributions," Daniel Naujoks, a professor at the university, wrote. "And I know our students will be thrilled to learn from you!"
A third person wrote: "Great News. Presence of such wonderful faculty makes @ColumbiaSIPA @Columbia a great learning place and a world leader. Congratulations @HillaryClinton"
Some of Clinton's peers also praised her, including the senator' former aide, Sam Arora.
"Thrilled to see my old boss, fmr. Sec. @HillaryClinton, join my alma mater @Columbia as a scholar!" he tweeted. "What a privilege those students will have to get to learn from such an accomplished global leader."
In his message to faculty, Bollinger reflected on how he's "personally known" Clinton for over 30 years and applauded her for her work as US Senator.
"Given her extraordinary talents and capacities together with her singular life experiences, Hillary Clinton is unique, and, most importantly, exceptional in what she can bring to the University's missions of research and teaching, along with public service and engagement for the public good," he wrote. "It is, therefore, with great delight and pride that I make this announcement that Secretary Clinton will be bringing her capacities, experience, and wisdom to this institution. I expect us all to benefit immeasurably from working with her in the months and years ahead."
Bollinger also specified Clinton's upcoming responsibilities in her roles. As professor, she will work alongside other faculty members and administrators on a wide range of initiatives, specifically "those focusing on global politics and policy and on supporting female leaders in those arenas".
For her job as presidential fellow, she'll be helping with programs that "related to renewing democracy and advancing efforts for effective engagement of women and youth" nationwide.

UPDATE 2-HeidelbergCement shuts Italian plants as coronavirus hits 'like a wave'
By Christoph Steitz
* Cannot give 2020 outlook currently - CEO
* Notes construction delays in U.S., France, Spain
* In some regions output might be cut to zero
* Imposes hiring, investment freeze
* Shares fall 9.6% to bottom of DAX (Recasts, adds CEO comments, details)
FRANKFURT, March 19 (Reuters) - HeidelbergCement has shut down factories in Italy and imposed a freeze on hiring and non-essential spending as the world's second-biggest cement maker grapples with a coronavirus pandemic it says has hit the world "like a wave."
The German company, which competes with larger rival LafargeHolcim, joined businesses across the world in warning it was unable to predict its prospects for 2020 as the crisis brings economies to a standstill.
"You can see it's hitting the world like a wave," Chief Executive Dominik von Achten said on Thursday. "It's a tough test for the company but also probably for German society."
Von Achten told reporters the group was holding a crisis call at 0800 CET (0700 GMT) every day to get an overview over how the virus was affecting staff. So far, seven employees have tested positive, he said.
After a particularly strong start to the business year, von Achten said construction projects were now being delayed in the United States, while activity in France and Spain was also starting to weaken.
In Italy, the group has shut down three plants in the region of Lombardy, where Bergamo - the worst-hit province with more than 4,000 coronavirus cases - is located, after local authorities urged it to do so.
Shares in the group fell as much as 9.6% and were at the bottom of Germany's benchmark DAX index. The stock has more than halved this year, compared with a 36% fall in the DAX.
"At the moment, we are not able to predict how long the precautionary measures will last, and which impact is to be expected on the construction activities in each country," von Achten said.
Apart from the hiring freeze, the group is considering shortened working hours and will urge employees to cut overtime, take vacation days or take unpaid leave, it said.
HeidelbergCement, which confirmed preliminary results released last month, also postponed its annual general meeting, which was scheduled for May 7, due to the spread of the virus.
Von Achten, who took over as CEO last month, tried to allay fears there would be weeks with little or no revenue, a prospect apparently looming at German airline Lufthansa, which said on Thursday the crisis had forced it to ground 700 planes and slash passenger capacity by 95%.
"Could we be hit like Lufthansa, which means three or four weeks where there are no sales? We are clearly trying to avoid that and we do not assume it's going to happen," von Achten said, adding the group was stockpiling cement amid disruptions.
He still said output could be cut to zero for 1-3 weeks in some regions. (Editing by Edward Taylor and Mark Potter)

Q: How to create a wave sound, in R, given a specified deciBel level? I R, thanks to the library sound, we are able to create a sine wave:
s1 <- Sine(650, 1, 44100, 16, 2)

Plotting the waveform we obtain an image like this:
plot(s1[1:100])

The waveform moves in the interval [-1, +1]. If I play it, to what deciBel does it correspond?
How to generate a wave sound (with the same parameters), with a specified deciBel level (i.e. a wave sound, frequency 650Hz, duration 1 sec, sampling rate 44100, 16 bits, 2 channels, 55dB)?
Thanks in advance!

A: So I guess you want to change the amplitude right? There is no straightforward way to change amplitude in sound the way you want, because it's very basic package. Try tuneR or seewave packages for much more advanced options and control (for example afilter in seewave could be a good solution, but unfortunately I couldn't run it in R 2.14 - not compatible).
What you could do in a simple way is to use normalize to change the volume, but it doesn't work for the 'default' amplitude in sound package. For example, if you produce this sine wave
 s1 <- .6*Sine(650, 1, 44100, 16, 2)

you can normalize it by
 s2 <- normalize(s1)

And you can hear (and see on the plot) that the s2 is louder.

Menlo Group buys property management company
| Property Managers
Tempe-based Menlo Group Commercial Real Estate announced today that the full-service brokerage has purchased Page Commercial Realty Services, a property management company located in Mesa, Ariz. The acquisition will enable Menlo Group to expand its commercial property management services.
READ ALSO: Ranking Arizona: Top 10 brokerage firms for 2021
"We first launched our property management offering a year ago," said Menlo Group President Tanner Milne, MBA, CCIM, SIOR. "To best serve our clients and grow our business, it made sense for us to scale quickly by purchasing an existing company to supplement our current efforts."
Page Commercial Realty Services was founded by Greg Page in 2008. Since then, the company has grown its portfolio and now manages 11 properties across the Valley.
"Greg has built an amazing property management company, and we plan to continue his legacy," said Kody Miller, MBA, who joined Menlo Group as chief operating officer last month and oversaw the acquisition as his first project for the company. "We will take his processes and combine them with our brand, culture and technology."
Page has worked in the development, management and leasing of retail properties for over 40 years. He will assist in the transition for a few months before beginning his retirement.
"I am excited to sell my business to Menlo Group," Page said. "In meeting with Tanner and Kody, I knew that my clients would be in good hands."

We all know the statement that goes "When the student is ready, the teacher will appear." In my case, they forgot to add that "she'll show up at a networking meeting, sit down next to you and say, Hi I'm Tina." Well that's what happened to me back in June when I was still floating around in my distracted state and trying to regain my balance with work and my personal life. I met my new teacher Tina, an amazing hypnotherapist who I believe truly pulled me back on track.
Yeah … I know that I haven't written in a couple of months. I was waiting to complete all of my sessions with Tina and to see if I could make it through the book about "happy working moms" that I had started back in May. I finished my last session the last week of June and I'm about 3/4 of the way through the book. I can honestly say that I've found myself in a much better place than I was during the last post.
I've never been to a hypnotherapist so I wasn't sure what to expect and Tina let me know she didn't have a plan for our sessions. We would just let things flow the way that they were suppose to go. When I first met with her, my head was cycling with everything going on (Did I need to add more to that proposal? What did that client say she needed when? Was I spending too much time working while Jake was watching TV?) and at times it was causing an anxiety where I could actually feel my stomach going flippity-flop.
All I can say now … WOW … amazing … I'm on the hypnotherapy band wagon and would highly recommend it to anyone who needs to shut out your negative thoughts. I don't just feel like myself again but a better version of the 'happy working mommy' that I always thought that I could be.
These past couple of months have brought some great changes in my life. The hypnotherapy sessions put me back on the right path to be able to increase my productivity and I brought in three more clients. The lessons I learned during my sessions gave me the clarity to re-establish a connection with my long distance relationship and we're back together in a new and better place then before we broke up.
I also learned a better way to deal with my ex-husband (and those of you who know my ex, KNOW what I'm talking about!) as we finalized a legal action I had filed that had been dragging on for almost a year. Instead of the worry and concerns that would always fill my mind, I was able to take a step back and do what I needed to do. Now I know that whatever happens with the way that he responds to me, I know that I can handle it to do what's right for my son.
And my dog Woodrow took a turn for the worst 2 weeks ago and the vet says that this is really the beginning of the end. While I'm sad about the idea of losing him, the sessions taught me how to think of all our happy memories together. The old me would have just cried every time I looked at him. I know that I'll still be a mess on his last day but at least now I know that I have the tools to handle the loss.
These past couple of months have helped me answer one of my questions about creating a support system in a way that works for me and my life. I'm proud to say that now Tina is part of my support system and I couldn't have come this far without her. I'm looking forward to where else this Quest will take me.
Wow… happy to hear you are happy! thanks for the insight on something that would never have crossed my mind. I'm open minded and may want the number of Tina for assistance.

Q: Como tratar de maneira encapsulada um campo que é uma lista de elementos imutáveis? Imagine que você tem um objeto e um de seus campos é uma lista de elementos imutáveis.
Você quer disponibilizar esse campo para os clientes desse objeto de forma controlada, afinal uma lista pode ser alterada e receber ou perder elementos, invalidando o objeto e violando o princípio do encapsulamento.
O que disponibilizar para o cliente? Depende da regra de negócio, você vai responder. Mas considere de forma geral algumas opções.
Uma das opções é disponibilizar um método getter que acesse uma cópia da lista. Dessa forma, tendo os elementos já imutáveis, a lista original fica também imutável.
Outra opção é disponibilizar um getter que acessa os elementos um a um: getElement(int posicao).
Outra opção é disponibilizar um iterator.
A pergunta é, essa última opção faz sentido? Eu costumo incluí-la entre as opções possíveis mas acabo desistindo, achando que o design não fica bom. Mas volta e meia penso nela. Por isso esta pergunta. O que acham?

A: Sob o ponto de vista do encapsulamento, normalmente considero que a melhor abordagem é a seguinte:
public class SuaClasse {

    // Embora AlgumaCoisa seja imutável, a lista em si é mutável.
    private List<AlgumaCoisa> algumaLista;

    public SuaClasse() {
        // ...
    }

    public List<AlgumaCoisa> getAlgumaLista() {
        return List.copyOf(algumaLista);
    }

    public void adicionarItem(AlgumaCoisa adicionando) {
        this.algumaLista.add(adicionando);
    }
}

O método List.copyOf(Collection<E>) foi adicionado no Java 10 e cria uma cópia imutável de uma dada lista. Se a lista dada for modificada futuramente, a cópia não será alterada.
Em versões mais antigas do Java, eu usava isso (neste caso, Java 7):
    public List<AlgumaCoisa> getAlgumaLista() {
        return Collections.unmodifiableList(new ArrayList<>(algumaLista));
    }

De toda forma, a lista interna nunca é exposta diretamente para qualquer outra classe que quiser acessá-la. Isso garante o encapsulamento. Se alguma classe externa tiver interesse em modificar o conteúdo dessa lista de uma instância x, deverá utilizar algum dos métodos expostos por x, o que justifica o fato da lista retornada ser imutável.
Também justifica-se ser uma cópia porque alterações subsequentes por meio do método adicionarItem não devem misteriosamente se refletir em listas que embora tenham sido obtidas anteriormente a partir da instância x, estejam em códigos que não mais tem interesse em x propriamente dito.
E mesmo que uma cópia seja retornada, qualquer tentativa de modificar essa cópia diretamente é no mínimo um code smell ou um chamariz para bugs. Logo, mesmo sendo uma cópia, ela ainda assim tem que ser imutável.
Usar Iterator diretamente é difícil. O Iterator tem limitações de não poder ser iterado mais de uma vez (a menos que copiem-se todos os itens numa lista, mas aí seria mais fácil já dar essa lista previamente construída) e também tem  limitação de não poder determinar o tamanho da lista. Além disso, o Iterator é algo bastante ultrapassado, pois agora existe o Stream.
Existem alguns cenários onde faz sentido retornar-se um Stream ao invés de uma lista. Um exemplo, é quando está se percorrendo os registros de um banco de dados ou de um arquivo linha a linha. Nesse caso, faz-se isso:
public Stream<AlgumaCoisa> {
    // Faz alguma coisa.
}

Mas isso só se justifica quando não é desejado que todos os itens estejam pré-preparados em memória por questão de desempenho ou de economia de memória. Caso não seja esse o caso, retorna-se a lista.
Por fim, ainda pode se ter a preocupação de que o getter pode ficar pesado de ser executado, pois sempre que é chamado, uma nova cópia da lista será feita mesmo se for idêntica a cópia produzida na chamada anterior ao método. Então, pode-se fazer isso:
public class SuaClasse {

    // Embora AlgumaCoisa seja imutável, a lista em si é mutável.
    private List<AlgumaCoisa> algumaLista;
    private List<AlgumaCoisa> algumaListaImutavel;

    public SuaClasse() {
        // ...
    }

    public List<AlgumaCoisa> getAlgumaLista() {
        if (algumaListaImutavel == null) algumaListaImutavel = List.copyOf(algumaLista);
        return algumaListaImutavel;
    }

    public void adicionarItem(AlgumaCoisa adicionando) {
        this.algumaListaImutavel = null;
        this.algumaLista.add(adicionando);
    }
}


It's been a good week up here on the roof . Not too much rain and some bright sunny days that have brought out the flowers …. Beautiful heirloom pink and purple pea flowers, some traditional snow white ones, large papery pink hollyhocks and a few tiny wild strawberries. Come up for a visit sometime. It's magic up here.

It received blanket coverage in the media on the weekend…. but in case you missed it, the Wayside Chapel's $8 million redevelopment is complete.
For the first time the local Potts Point/Kings Cross community got a sneak peak at the new buildings, services – and roof top veggie garden.
The weather couldn't have been more perfect. Everything and everyone was bathed in sunshine and the garden looked amazing. All the hard work from our visitors, volunteer gardeners and support from Eden Gardens and Community Greening paid off.
I conducted a few garden tours (that's me in the black dress) explaining what was growing in the garden pots and how the roof's innovative drainage system works.
And for Wayside benefactor Wotif founder Graeme Wood to plant a lemon myrtle tree in the indigenous garden corner.
Magic day all round. Thanks for coming along.

Well today was our last gardening blitz before the May 19th official opening of the new Wayside Chapel redevelopment in Potts Point. The Waydide's rooftop veggie garden is just one of several green initiatives that makes the building very special indeed. The others include – the use of natural air flow rather than air-conditioning, rain water ranks and solar panels.
Our gardening team gathered at 9am to plant up edible hanging baskets which will sit on the western fence of the roof garden.
Generously donated by Eden Gardens and Community Greening we planted up a collection of lettuces, herbs, and edible flowers into rectangular planting boxes.
Two hours later our roof top veggie garden looked pretty swish.
You can come along and take a look for yourself when our opening day street party on Hughes St Potts Point kicks off next Saturday May 19th at 10am.
This entry was posted in Wayside Chapel Edible Roof Garden on May 12, 2012 by dearindira2013.
The challenge is on to turn this 200m square roof space into a thriving veggie patch that Wayside's visitors can enjoy.
Much has already been put into place – 20 large tubs – donated by greening communities – have been planted with more that 30 vegetables, herbs and flowers. There's a drip irrigation system, rainwater tanks, and solar panels.
By the time the new Wayside redevelopment is unveiled with a huge street party on May 19th, I'll be helping transform this urban roof into a lush productive garden . Watch this space – ill keep you updated with pics!
