Deontay Wilder: Dillian Whyte needs to keep winning and he'll get title shot
By Sean McDaniel: WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder says Dillian Whyte is just a lurking fighter that hides in the bushes, and who isn't serious about wanting to fight. In other words, Wilder views Whyte (25-1, 18 KOs) as someone that likes to stalk him, talk trash, but who isn't serious about wanting to fight anyone talented to earn the title shot.
Wilder offered Whyte a fight if he first beat Luis Ortiz, but he chose not to fight the Cuban talent. When the World Boxing Council then mandated the Whyte-Ortiz fight as a heavyweight title eliminator, Whyte still didn't take the fight. Although Whyte has been ranked at #1 wth the WBC title for the past two years, he didn't an eliminator. When they tried to get Whyte to fight Ortiz last year, he chose to face Dereck Chisora and Joseph Parker instead.
With that being said, Wilder (41-0-1, 40 KOs) says he'll eventually give him a world title shot if he keeps winning.
Wilder: Whyte doesn't want to fight me
"It's just sad, a grown man lurking and hiding in the bushes, that's what he does," said Wilder to 78SPORTSTV in talking about Whyte constantly talking about wanting a fight against him. "He's just peeping his head out of the bushes to see what I'm doing, and to see where I'm gong next, talking about how he wants to fight me. He do not want to fight me. I know who wants to fight me, and who don't. He tries to act hard. I know the real ones. He can get on social media and stalk me and harass me. I appreciate the publicity. I appreciate him for keeping my name alive, but he's had multiple opportunities to fight me," said Wilder.
Whyte wants the fight with Wilder, but he's not shown interest in fighting for the mandatory spot by taking part in an official eliminator. He's interested in fighting in an official WBC eliminator no that he's facing Oscar Rivas.
Dillian Whyte didn't want to fight Luis Ortiz says Wilder
"He didn't take any of the opportunities placed before him," said Wilder. "Dillian Whyte is one of the easiest styles ever. People say I'm wild, but he's definitely wild. If I'm wild, I've mastered my skills of being wild. For anybody else to try and come in wild with me, they ain't going to last. He's going to get knocked out real early if that fight ever happens," said Wilder.
"Then he had [Luis] Ortiz. I said, 'go fight Ortiz.' He didn't want to fight Ortiz, when I gave him my word," said Wilder about Whyte. "He wants to call him an old man. If he's old, that's an easy chance. 'If you beat Ortiz, you got me,' I told him that. Then the WBC comes around and mandated it. They ordered him [Whyte] to do it. What he did was he still declined [the Ortiz fight]. The dude had so many opportunities. He just didn't want to do it. Whyte does not want to fight. He just wants to talk, and who keeps up with the days," said Wilder in commenting on how Whyte has been counting the days he's been ranked #1 with the World Boxing Council.
What's interesting is Whyte has called Ortiz an old man, and yet he's not done the same thing in his recent fights last year against 40-year-old Lucas 'Big Daddy' Browne, and 35-year-old Dereck Chisora. Those are both older fighter, but Whyte didn't talk abut their age.
Tyson Fury says Deontay Wilder did get knocked out by Wladimir Klitschko
Wilder: Whyte has counted 600 days like he's in prison
"'It's been 600 days,'" said Wilder in imitating Whyte with his complaining about being ranked #1 for ages without being made the mandatory challenger. "Get the f–k out of here, like you've been in prison, and you're striking the walls. 'I'm 750 days.' I'm levels above these guys. I'm ready to fight these guys again. That was a great fight. Nobody wants to fight him. They just want to call him old. I don't understand. Beat his old as-, and then move on. That's what I want to see from these guys. Stop talking so much, and do what you've got to do," Wilder said.
Whyte and his promoter Eddie Hearn don't realize the difference between being ranked #1 and being the mandatory challenger. They're not necessarily the same thing. Just being ranked #1 by a sanctioning body doesn't make a fighter a mandatory challenger. In order to be a mandatory, a fighter needs to take part in an official eliminator. Whyte skipped the eliminator when the WBC ordered him to fight Luis Ortiz last year. He should have taken the fight because he would have already been made the mandatory for Wilder.
Wilder says he's hearing Whyte vs. Rivas having problems with ticket sales
"I don't know too much about Oscar Rivas," said Wilder about Whyte's opponent Rivas for July 20. "He likes to throw a lot of power punches when he fights. Hopefully, he comes and gives a great fight. I heard they're having a hard time selling this fight as well. He's [Whyte] focusing on me instead of his own life," said Wilder.
Deontay Wilder: 'I'm going to RIP Tyson Fury's head off'
Wilder says he'll give Whyte a title shot if he keeps putting wins behind him. Whyte's promoter Eddie Hearn is counting on that happening a lot sooner than Wilder thinks, because he's been pushing the WBC to order the winner of next week's Whyte-Rivas winner to be a final eliminator.
Whyte better be ready when the time comes says Wilder
"When the time comes, he better be ready, because you're going to get what you want," said Wilder. "It won't be long, man. He keeps calling me out just like all the other ones that called me out. Dillian Whyte, I want you to listen to me. If you continue to win, trust me, you don't have to worry about coming to me. I'm going to come to you. I'm going to pull your card. You aren't in the position to call my card. You can't even open my card. When I do pull your card, I want you to be ready, bro, because it's going to be life and death, bro," said Wilder.
Whyte will likely get a title shot against Wilder if he wins his next fight against Rivas.

'Dunkirk': A film preview
The critically acclaimed Christopher Nolan film will be shown at the Woodland Theater this weekend
Story by Rebecca Mennecke, Managing EditorMay 1, 2018Leave a Comment
More stories from Rebecca Mennecke
Student journalists are necessary now more than ever
Harry Styles, former One Direction heartthrob, demonstrates his acting skills as the character "Alex" in the 2017 film.
Featuring the score of music genius, Hans Zimmer, the 2017 film "Dunkirk" has claimed critical success for more than just the fantastic musical score or the inclusion of young heartthrob Harry Styles.
Based on the real-life miracle evacuation of Dunkirk, France during World War II, "Dunkirk" presents an artistic representation of what is now known as the "miracle of Dunkirk." The movie portrays a historically accurate representation of World War II from an interesting, artistic angle — a thrilling angle that will be portrayed on the screens at the Woodland Theater this weekend.
The film follows a few leading male roles, Tommy and Gibson, and later Alex, played by Styles himself, during the May of 1940 as the Allied troops of Europe sought to flee Dunkirk.
However, with the shallow waters, it was dangerous for large ships to rescue the thousands of soldiers restlessly awaiting the evacuation, before the French-German line of battle was broken, and the European soldiers would have no choice to face the onslaught of German soldiers.
In order to solve the problem of being stuck between the sea and the Germans, the army ingeniously called out for civilian boats to be able to evacuate the soldiers to the deeper tides, where they could be whisked away to other locations to fight in — and to eventually win — the second World War. The evacuation of Dunkirk supposedly gave the Allied troops the hope to bring the war to a closing victory.
Rachel Lewis from Time said the British still use the term "Dunkirk spirit" to refer to "an attitude of being very strong in a difficult situation and refusing to accept defeat."
The real-life evacuation of Dunkirk remains arguably one of the most influential events during World War II. The film represents this with a mostly satisfying ending, open to the possibility of victory. (No spoilers!)
Though a mostly silent film, the creators articulated the reality of war with few words, as they leave much of the narration to simply be viewed and understood, rather than explained.
This tactic worked for most viewers, as the film averaged a score of 8.6 out of 10 on Rotten Tomatoes.
New York Times film critic Manohla Dargis said, "'Dunkirk' is a tour de force of cinematic craft and technique, but one that is unambiguously in the service of a sober, sincere, profoundly moral story that closes the distance between yesterday's fights and today's."
While the film garnered the respect of numerous people, it did not satisfy everyone. David Cox from The Guardian expressed how "Dunkirk" did not include all of the details it could have. The film focused not on the physical armies but more on air combat, left out important details in the evacuation of Dunkirk and eliminated any meaningful characterization and left women almost entirely out of the film.
Cox wrote, "Indeed, I thought the subject would have been better suited to the cold, TV-news glare of digital than the lushness of film."
UW-Eau Claire students can formulate their own opinions about the film "Dunkirk," and simultaneously learn about history through an interesting film adaptation, this weekend at the Woodland Theater. The film will be playing at 7 p.m. on Friday, May 4, at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. on Saturday, May 5 and at 2 p.m. on Sunday, May 6.

Q: The rank of a tensor is not invariant under isomorphism Let $V,W$ be two $K$-vector spaces; for $a\in V\otimes W$ define
\begin{equation*}
rk(a)=\min \left\{r|a=\sum_{i=1}^r\alpha_iv_i\otimes w_i\text{ for some }\alpha_i\in K,v_i\in V,w_i\in W\right\}.
\end{equation*}
Now let $U$ be a vector space of dimension greater than 1 and consider the canonical isomorphism $i\colon (U\otimes U)\otimes U\rightarrow U\otimes (U\otimes U)$.
It should be true that the rank is not invariant under $i$, but I can't see it. :(
(BTW: this is problem 1.2.2 in Radford's "Hopf algebras")

A: Let $a,b \in U$ be linearly independent. Then $(a \otimes b + b \otimes a) \otimes a$ has rank $1$ in $(U \otimes U) \otimes U$ whereas $a \otimes (b \otimes a) + b \otimes (a \otimes a)$ has rank $2$.

Surfing through friends' Facebook posts, I came upon a Halloween-themed editorial cartoon where the rich collected bucketsful of treats and the middle-class received nothing but tricks. I commented, "What about the poor?"
We talk about the shrinking middle class while avoiding mention of the poor. Yet what is central to Catholic faith but the poor? The U.S. Bishops remind us "our tradition recalls the story of the Last Judgment (Mt 25:31-46) and instructs us to put the needs of the poor and vulnerable first."
Yet rarely do we talk about the poor, welcome the poor, or challenge the structures that perpetuate the conditions of poverty.
The poor stand at the center of our faith. Saint Teresa of Calcutta once said, "The Eucharist and the poor we must never separate. The poor and the Eucharist are one. There is not one without the other." The Eucharist is the source and summit of our faith; the Liturgy of the Eucharist is central to the mass. Therefore, the poor are present at every mass.
The Eucharist then requires us to go into the world and live our lives as Catholics. God gives us "Living Bread. God gives us Living Bread because we need it. We in turn must give our bread to those who need it. Then we must ensure that they have the resources to bake their own bread.
Sunday Nov.18 is the second World Day of the Poor, a day established by Pope Francis on which he asks us to hear the cries of the poor among us with open ears and hearts and to respond in faith as we work for justice.
Pope Francis invites us, particularly on this day, to become aware and begin to understand the material poverty in which some individuals, families, and communities live. Imagine what it would be like to lack access to the basic things needed to live and thrive: nutritious food, adequate housing, safe neighborhoods, good education, healthcare, and decent jobs with fair pay.
People of Faith know that the poor are at the center of the Church because we believe in the dignity of the human person; no individual is more equal than another.
We participate in Christ's kingdom of service by caring for the poor and truly hearing their cries: "The crowds asked John the Baptist, 'What should we do?' He said to them in reply, 'Whoever has two cloaks should share with the person who has none'" (Luke 3: 10-11).
Scripture unfailingly points us to the poor: The angel of the Lord proclaimed the birth of the savior to the shepherds – the poorest, and smelliest, of the poor. Central to the miracle of the Loaves and Fishes is Jesus feeding the hungry. In the Last Judgment, Jesus unmistakably explains what is expected of us: to serve the least of our brothers and sisters.
On this World Day of the Poor, the Church also takes up the collection to support the work of the Catholic Campaign for Human Development (CCHD). This collection supports the work of groups that empower low-income people to participate in decisions that affect their lives and break the cycle of their poverty.
The Lord hears the cries of the poor. Can we?

UNT Dallas College of Law announces community lawyering centers
The UNT Dallas College of Law has announced the creation of two new community lawyering centers to provide legal services to underserved communities in Dallas County.
Law students from the school—which opened its doors in fall 2014—will staff the centers alongside supervising attorneys.
The downtown and South Dallas centers are a partnership between the college, Legal Aid of NorthWest Texas, the Dallas County Public Defender's Office, and Legal Action Works. The Dallas County Dispute Resolution Center will provide experienced mediators to supervise law students.
Away from the law school campus, the centers aim to bring legal aid into underserved neighborhoods to improve access for those who need the services most and offer daytime, evening, and Saturday appointments.
"We understand that our clients may not be able to take off from work," UNT Dallas College of Law Professor Cheryl Wattley said in a news release. "They should not have to choose between earning money for their families and having access to legal representation."
Wattley, who also serves as the law school's director of experiential education, developed the concept for the centers and worked with the partnering organizations to start the programs within 15 months. The centers are expected to open in May.
The collaboration between working lawyers and educators from several institutions and areas of law will allow the centers to deliver a variety of programming to the community, Wattley said.
The centers are located:
Serving downtown area
511 Akard, Dallas 75201
Serving Frazier/Fair Park
4716 Elsie Faye Heggins St., Dallas 75210

I Love to travel! I love seeing new places and meeting new people. I love staying at different hotels, visiting different historical sites or new museums whatever, I like everything different…then home. How to keep doing this is the tricky part.
So I have these two friends, very well meaning friends both with the skills and adoration for me to do this blog website for me. All I have to do is write. Hopefully I can write and entertain everyone about my travels.
My name is Raquel, guess you can tell that by the website name. I'm a single mom now for 12 years. I've just recently become an empty nester. My boys are 18 and 20, they are currently attending University of Guelph.
I am 46, Jewish, and unemployed in a certain sense. I'm between jobs, so I travel for my excitement.
I have travelled to 47 countries so far, been to many of those places over and over again. I still need to go back and see more of many of those places its impossible to see it all in one trip. My longest time away is usually two weeks then I come home and be a mom then go back out. Now with my new child free state, I can go for longer periods.
mom of now two adult boys… empty nester?
Youngest of 3, sibling order means something.
Daughter of a Gypsy, well my mom…she was just like a gypsy ask anyone!
My sister is the real writer in the family, she gets paid for it… really!
I'm an aunt, great aunt, cousin to at least 30 cousins! Sister in law, friend, business partner, niece, Liberal.
I never pay retail! When allowed to haggle I do!
Everyone who knows me, calls me a world traveler.
Not a lover! Single? Remember?


I had the good fortune to see Q.I. last week and I have to say that Sandi Toksvig is absolutely awesome. She runs the show (and Alan) just as good as Sir Stephen did.
I would recommend that you should get Rory McGrath, Brian Blessed and Dave Gorman on the show soon.
Thank you for many, many years of good humour and fantabulous knowledge - may it continue for a long, long time.


How to attract and flirt with men. In today's world, it is normal for girls to make the first move. While guys also like it when girls become bold and make the first move, seeming too desperate is a huge turn off. If you want to be successful and learn how to flirt with a guy without seeming desperate, follow the tips below to successfully master how to attract men.
1. Request for his help and give him compliments.
Asking for his help, no matter how simple it is can be a good ice breaker. This also gives him a chance to show off his skills. After he helped you with your request, make sure to show your appreciation and give him compliments. Whether or not he's also interested in you at the onset, this will surely make him happy.
2. Make it obvious that you are checking him out.
A man will notice that you are checking him out with your stare. An effective strategy is to eye him up until he notices you and then when he does, turn away and make it appear that you are blushing. Guys will take this hint and may prompt them to talk to you and that is one good tip how to attract a guy.
3. Approach the guy in a friendly manner.
Keep it cool when you approach him and try to give off a warm and friendly vibe. Do not touch him yet, simply talk to him the same way you talk to your gay friends. Start with this and then slowly make prolonged eye contacts and flash your prettiest smile until he gets the hint.
4. Think of an excuse to get his phone number and talk to him more.
Another effect tip on how to attract a guy is having an excuse to get his phone number. Be creative in coming up with a random excuse to get his number. It can be cheesy, but hey, it works like a charm if you do it right.
5. Seek his opinion about something.
Asking his opinion about a random stuff is another great trick on how to flirt with a guy, it is effective and can be an ice breaker. Doing this will get him to talk and even show his expertise or knowledge on a certain subject matter. This will not only make him feel important but will also help you know more about him.
Women sometimes become too conscious about looking desperate, and this prevents them from making the move. However, unless you are begging men to date you or offering them money, most women do not look desperate even when they make the first move. So be confident, just go for it, and devise your own method of how to flirt with men without seeming desperate, flirt like a real pro!
Yes, making the first move is a good idea if you fancy someone. However, you shouldn't make yourself look desperate while doing so because guys do not take such women seriously. Keep in mind that your self-respect should still be greater, so flirt with your dignity still intact and use these tip on how to attract and flirt with men strategically and to your advantage.

National shuttler Yeo Jia Min in great shape for world juniors

Yeo Jia Min wins Asian U-17 singles title and partners Crystal Wong to the doubles crown
Assistant Sports Editor
jonwong@sph.com.sg
National shuttler Yeo Jia Min's preparations for next month's World Junior Championships received the ideal boost yesterday when she captured two titles at the Asia Under-17 & Under-15 Junior Championships.
The top-seeded Singaporean was ruthless in the U-17 girls' singles as she dispatched unseeded Indonesian and local hope Sri Fatmawate 21-15, 21-13 in the final at the Stadium Gor Djarum Jati in Kudus, Central Java.
Despite only an hour's rest, Jia Min - ranked 32nd in the global junior standings - returned to the court to partner compatriot Crystal Wong as the duo overcame the Japanese pair of Natsu Saito and Rumi Yoshida 21-18, 21-18 in the girls' doubles final.
The 16-year-old, whose idol is Malaysian former world No. 1 Lee Chong Wei, had won the U-15 singles title in 2013 and finished joint third in the U-17 category last year.
Said the Singapore Sports School Secondary 4 student: "Being the first seed, there is some pressure to live up to the seeding but I just tried to perform my best in every match ... I feel happy and relieved that I've managed to secure both titles."
This was the first time that she and Crystal have played together but the chemistry between them was evident.
Said Crystal, also 16: "We used offensive and aggressive tactics to fight against every opponent."
Both girls were part of the new-look women's squad - following the retirement of several veteran players - who clinched a team bronze medal at the SEA Games on home soil in June.
Along with Liang Xiaoyu, 19, who defeated former world champion Ratchanok Intanon en route to a silver medal at the Thailand Open last Sunday, Jia Min is seen as one of the country's most promising talents.
Said national singles coach Kelvin Ho: "This tournament is a stepping stone for her (Jia Min) in terms of confidence to move forward.
"There is still a huge step ahead for her. After this tournament, there is still the World Junior Championships, which is the real test to gauge herself."
That tournament will be held from Nov 4-15 in Lima, Peru.
Retired shuttlers Yao Lei and Fu Mingtian were the first Singaporeans to win a world junior title when they lifted the girls' doubles trophy in 2008. The Republic's last individual medal at the biennial U-19 event came in 2002, when Kendrick Lee lost in the boys' singles final.
Said Jia Min: "I've been trying to better my game after every match that I've played. I thank God for giving me the strength to pull through. My next competition is the World Junior Championships and I hope to be able to go far as well."

Warming Thoughts #8---Moral Hazard, the Precautionary Principle and Defunding Fossil Fuels
By: James F. Lavin, CEO Electron Storage, Inc.
If fossil fuel use, as advocated by many, ceased tomorrow, anthropomorphic global warming would indeed be dramatically slowed. But most climate activists and most politicians haven't considered the potential costs of such an abrupt transition; if tomorrow fossil fuels vanished, most of the humanity would be dead within a month. There would be no food, no water, no sewage, no fertilizer, no communication. I have read endless articles on the moral hazards of geoengineering research, and the moral hazards of CDR (Carbon Dioxide Removal) due to the potential that they might delay the end of fossil fuel use, but I have not seen any articles on the real potential hazards of government policies, mandates, bank regulator dictums, lawsuits, societal opprobrium, and shareholder resolutions aimed at ending the use of fossil fuels.
The precautionary principle so often used with regard to drugs and chemicals is to be very careful and ban the use of unproven technologies that may cause harm until proven otherwise, yet even optimists admit that 40% of the technologies we need to achieve net zero carbon emissions by 2050 have yet to be developed. The clean energy supply and energy distribution system to replace fossil fuels doesn't yet exist. If the incredibly rapid, difficult and technologically difficult doesn't happen a schedule dictated by political sound bites, and we have crippled our fossil fuel distribution networks and power generation networks, the risk is to billions of lives.
Why doesn't the precautionary principle, so aggressively applied to minor plant genetic modifications, or, say, vaccines, apply to the grand experiment mandating the end of fossil fuel use? There is too much comfort that fossil fuels and fossil fuel infrastructure will be there as a backstop despite every attempt to defund and cripple them.
Why aren't we discussing the moral and real hazards involved in cutting off investment in new oil and gas fields, which are required to maintain earth's population until we have proven on a wide-scale we can achieve transition? Oil and gas supply, power plants, and the pipelines to distribute them take decades to develop; if a transition away from fossil fuels is ineffectively managed, they can't simply be turned on at a moment's notice to replace lost energy. Suppose we can't develop and deploy myriad technologies at the massive scale needed to effectuate the energy transition-- and we don't have the fossil fuels and fossil fuel infrastructure still in place because we have starved them of investment?
Because I still live here, let's discuss New York. New York is behind only Rhode Island in energy efficiency; it uses much less fuel for transportation than other states due to the extensive mass transit use in New York City. It had one of the least carbon-intensive power grids due to hydropower largely from Niagara Falls, and until the shutdown of the Indian Point nuclear plant, 1/3rd of its grid power was nuclear. NYSERDA has been taxing ratepayers to supposedly aggressively funding energy efficiency and transition projects for 45 years.
Despite these advantages, New York, to achieve net zero (ignoring the fact that New York imports many carbon-intensive products and foodstuffs) has to TRIPLE the capacity of the electrical transmission and distribution grid and find massive new clean power sources capable of meeting winter peak demand. There's not a lot of sun in upstate New York in the winter, and electricity needs will grow dramatically as home heating is forced to switch from fossil fuels to electric heat pumps.
But there has been no building of new large scale electrical transmission and distribution lines. There is opposition to on-land wind farms, and the US government just cancelled two of the proposed offshore wind projects. Despite this the government has blithely banned fracking and prohibited new pipeline development. No progress, no feasible plan, and more proclamations competing for how soon New York must stop emitting CO2.
However, lets image that the sky is filled with linemen running new electric lines, no lawsuits delay massive new high voltage transmission lines, everyone wants modular nukes (assuming they are developed) in their backyards, multiple communities don't object to massive wind projects everywhere, and somehow gas supply remains robust. Even in this fantasia, what happens as gas main volume drops until they are uneconomic to maintain for those communities and individuals who couldn't transition to electric heat and electric cars, and electric apparatuses for drying crops?
Government officials and regulators proclaim and mandate the end of fossil fuels and enforce these proclamations with actions from banning pipelines to stopping new gas connections to forcing fossil fuel power plant retirements and dictating disinvestment in fossil fuels—but where is the responsibility for their citizens' safety? Is there any other area where they operate with such a true disregard for human life while being praised for it? This is all with regard to New York. The potential problems imposed upon the less developed world by banning oil and gas are much greater. Where is the discussion of "climate justice" for killing fossil fuels without adequate, inexpensive replacements?
I believe CO2 buildup threatens life as we know it, endangering endless species and altering the planet. I have dedicated the past 8 years of my life to CDR technologies and discussions. If we are late in stopping global warming, we create a series of difficulties, most of which we can adapt to or mitigate as we continue to develop solutions. If we prematurely cripple fossil fuel infrastructure, we will kill billions. This real, and moral, hazard needs to be front and center in any honest discussion of stopping global warming.

NATIONAL ACADEMY OF ENGINEERS NEEDS TO BE GREEN
I have asked the National Academy of Engineers to BOOT OUT one of their members. He is KR Sridhar the CEO and Chairman of Bloom Energy
Here is my email to academy
Folks Lying Sridhar continues his GREENWASHED FRAUD in Delaware
The crooks at Bloom and the Sleaze at DE DNREC pretended to invent low carbon natural gas. But now they are in a PICKLE. The DNREC permits for the two dirty Bloom power stations in Delaware limit CO2 emissions on an hourly basis and on a running yearly (12 month) basis. Of course Bloom exceeds the maximum amount of CO2 emissions in the permits and this is because they do not have low carbon natural gas.
We have a new Sheriff in the form of Michael Regan who must now fine Bloom for excess CO2 emissions not only in Delaware but all over the country. Michael Regan told the US Senate he will follow the science, end global warming and bring ENVIRONMETAL JUSTICE to these United States. I am on his ass to do this.
The National Academy of Engineers must BOOT OFF LYING SRIDHAR as a member if they too FOLLOW THE SCIENCE.

Plans to Ban Natural Gas in NY
Everyone knows it's not smart to put all your eggs in one basket. You risk complete loss if something goes wrong with that basket. But that is exactly what New York State is planning to do with building electrification through its proposed ban on natural gas.
Recently, the Energy Efficiency and Housing Advisory Panel published "Preliminary Draft Proposal Recommendations Under Consideration" which lists several plans to ban future natural gas use in buildings (Fig. 1). No gas space heating or water heating in new construction. No gas space heating or water heating end-of-life replacements in existing buildings. No gas replacements for cooking or clothes drying appliances. That's no gas allowed at all.
Figure 1. Page 13 of the Preliminary Draft Proposal Recommendations Under Consideration (1). Highlights added.
The Energy Efficiency and Housing Advisory Panel is a subcommittee of the Climate Action Council empowered by the ambitious New York Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act of 2019. The proposed gas bans are phased-in over the next 5 to 15 years in order to meet the Act's climate goals.
This command and control policy won't achieve the goals without serious unintended consequences. Consumers will rush to purchase and install gas technologies before the new bans take effect, undermining the purpose of the ban. Concurrent policies to increase the share of renewable wind and solar energy are being implemented, making electricity more expensive in NY. Importantly, relying solely on electricity for space heating puts NY residents in drafty buildings at risk from freezing during a blackout.
Such a shift in the way New Yorkers operate all their aging buildings in this short timeframe is improbable. Current technology being pushed comes in the form of all-electric ground-source heat pumps and cold climate air-source heat pumps. While these technologies are capable of providing comfortable interior environments in the context of holistic building design under normal operating conditions, they are expensive to install and maintain.
During the recent public comment period for the gas ban proposal, serious doubts were put forth regarding the functionality of alternative technologies in a variety of circumstances. Simply replacing gas burning furnaces and appliances with all-electric options may not work as intended. In the absence of super-insulated and tightly sealed building envelopes, heat pumps lose heat transfer efficiency in cold temperatures and need to run continuously. Their compressor oil needs to be heated by electric resistance to avoid mechanical failure. At extremely low temperatures, electric resistance backup heat is required, which is the least efficient and most expensive to operate. These factors put a greater load on the electric grid when it's needed most, increasing the risk of catastrophic failure and expense of operation. Heat pumps may not be able to keep up in some extreme conditions, such as a polar vortex, which climate models increasingly forecast.
A better policy approach is to continue to provide market incentives to encourage those who want and can afford all efficient technologies, including gas combined heat and power systems and climate-negative biofuels, to install them more easily. Funding research and development for future innovative solutions, such as better performing refrigerants, should be increased in an effort to make our buildings and energy systems better.

HYDROGEN HOPE OR HYPE?
I wrote this email this morning to Jigar Shah who heads DOE $40 billion loan program and Michael Regan who heads the US EPA.
Jigar and Mr. Regan
I call Jigar by his first name as I know him, I hope to call Mr. Regan, Michael soon.
You do know I wrote Hydrogen Hope or Hype? back in 2003. Thermodynamics has not changed in 18 years.
I also helped the WRI under Jonathan Lash think through Hydrogen when Bush 43 and Sam the Sham Bodman were hyping it. I represented Shinko Pantec of Kobe Japan as far back as 1995 for their PEM electrolyzers at the US National Hydrogen Association. Their former Managing Director, now retired Dr Hogetsu translated my book into Japanese.
I do believe there is some hope for hydrogen and am probably still one of the ten folks on the planet who know a bunch about hydrogen. Bloom Energy is not part of that HOPE. As Jigar once emailed me "they know how to get free money". We do not need any BLOOMDOGGLES.
Mr. Lavin of New York and I funded research at Iowa State University on producing bio-ethane and bio-hydrogen from waste bio-oil in biomass pyrolysis. We showed 84% efficiency in conversion of electrical energy into chemical energy using simple electrodes without noble or expensive metals. Research and development on this should be now funded by DOE for scale up. Note Khosla's KIOR went bankrupt because of the organic acids and aldehydes in bio-oil. We make good use of these oil killer chemicals.
The news out of Israel is also promising in electrolysis.
https://newatlas.com/energy/h2pro-cheap-hydrogen-electrolysis/
For Blue Hydrogen produced with carbon capture, I am leading some of the most promising technology developments out there.
I suggest that the DOE/EPA convene a public WEBEX or Zoom that I am willing to participate in to showcase the real status and the real promise of zero or very low carbon footprint hydrogen. You should also note that I led and paid a bunch of money for a spectacular failure in the pyrolysis of methane to make solid carbon and hydrogen.
We built a pilot plant based on published research from Lawrence Livermore Labs. We proved after a lot of time and effort that the authors from LLNL were simply faking their results of yields and product quality. Yes even prestigious national labs are aboard the hydrogen gravy train. We don't need these Solyndras of Science to be repeated.
I look forward to assisting our nation and my country to follow the laws of thermodynamics and make meaningful reductions in carbon emissions.. I expect replies from both DOE and EPA that my voice and the voices of other Thermodynamicists will be heard and that GREEN NEW DEAL will NOT BE A REHASH OF THE GANGRENE OLD DEAL

Last German chance: Kerber wants to reach the semi-finals
GlobalSports
One day after the bitter quarter-final defeat of injured Alexander Zverev, only Angelique Kerber of 15 German tennis pros is left at the French Open. To reach her first semi-final in Paris, she has to beat the number one.
Now there is only Angelique Kerber from 15 German tennis pros left at the French Open. This Wednesday, the former world number one wants to reach the semi-finals in Paris for the first time, where Andrea Petkovic was the last German in 2014. With the current number one Simona Halep from Romania, Kerber still has a score to settle at the Australian Open.
Angelique Kerber is number twelve in the world rankings, Simona Halep number one. If the 26-year-old loses, she will lose this position after the French Open to Caroline Wozniacki from Denmark or Garbiñe Muguruza from Spain. The 30-year-old Kerber was already first in the ranking and won the Australian and US Open in 2016, was in the Wimbledon and Olympia finals and the WTA Finals. Halep is still without a title. She lost the final in Paris in 2014 and 2017, at the Australian Open this year.
THE DIRECT COMPARISON:
Halep refused to make it to the final before losing to Wozniacki in Melbourne Kerber. After defending two match points, she won 6-3, 4-6, 9-7 and has been leading 5-4 since then, the only duel on clay being won by Kerber 6-2, 6-2 at the 2016 Fed Cup in Cluj.
KERBER SAYS:
"These are the matches you train for and work for. Exactly such matches one would like to have as a player. I know what's coming, what I can expect. I will try to concentrate on myself as I have done in the last few days and try to win the match myself."
THAT SAYS HALEP:
"It's always a tough match. I'm mentally ready, I'm physically ready. I am ready to accept and enjoy this challenge. I think I've learned in the past to enjoy more and be grateful for the position I'm in."
The semi-final opponent for Kerber or Halep will be determined between the former Paris winners Maria Sharapova from Russia and Muguruza. In the men's singles, the Spanish defending champion Rafael Nadal will go into the quarter-finals as the favourite against the small Argentinian Diego Schwartzman. His better known compatriot Juan Martin del Potro plays in the duel of two former US Open winners against the Croatian Marin Cilic.

"It's not often apparent to first-time users of BPM software that they may have in fact purchased two BPM systems! There is (1) the BPM modeling system and (2) there's the BPM system that is used every day by people working on real live business processes."
"A lack of process governance managed centrally through BPM disciplines and technology could have significant consequences for businesses. It results not only in people across an organisation doing the same task in different ways, but also in the duplication and triplication of the same work, causing deadlines to be missed while driving up costs."
"I think BPM may be one of the areas where the hype about AI might actually be understated."
"Machine learning and AI aren't just going to automagically enhance BPM to some utopian state without some up-front input and guidance. The up-front homework is the part that always gets left out on technical panaceas."
"MACHINE LEARNING will make all flowchart design obsolete."
"So AI/ML will definitely have it's impact on processes. Not the same for any type of process, but where data must be turned into action (actually, isn't that in any process?), it hopefully helps to create better insights and faster action."
"The only use for AI is ultimately 'better decisions'."
"If the process is a core one to a company, that company should always be analyzing how to make the process better. This definition of 'better' should be focused on customer outcomes. If the feedback loop for the process ends up indicating a portion of a process should be automated, and the cost can be justified, then it is time to automate that portion of the process."
"It's time to automate a process when you've stopped learning anything from performing it."
When Do You Know It's Time to Automate a Business Process? "When you have stopped thinking about the work you're doing, while doing it."
"When you find yourself avoiding doing something the right way because of how hard it is to do."

Sony Xperia XZ1 Manual And User Guide PDF
Instructions > Smartphones > Sony Xperia XZ1 Manual And User Guide PDF
Sony Xperia XZ1. The new flagship of Sony is a festival of the image. Both to capture it with its powerful camera and to enjoy it on its HDR screen.
Download the Manual and User Guide of Sony Xperia XZ1
Considering that it belongs to the elite range, it is clear that we will find few specifications that are not overwhelming, as well as its price. But we will not focus first on the camera, a technological prodigy of the image.
The resolution of the 19 MP Exmor RS sensor is just the beginning of what the powerful Sony lens hides. A revolutionary technology with Motion Eye that allows us to capture real images of exceptional quality. The Exmor RS, typical of professional cameras such as the Sony DSC-WX500, in addition to the BIONZ image processor, detect the movement with the highest precision for mobile phones.
It also has interesting effects like the Super Slow motion that records videos at 960 frames per second with impressive results. This Slow Motion is up to four times greater than that of competing smartphones.
You could be for hundreds of lines commenting on the multiple qualities of the Xperia XZ1 cameras but the best thing is that you see the following video to get an idea.
The screen is the other point that will make us love this smartphone from minute one. BRAVIA technology allows us to enjoy all the content in HDR quality with bright colors and very true to reality. Its 5.2 "screen and Full HD resolution also has X-Reality technology that adds pixels and reduces noise so everything looks fabulous, brightness and license plate definition.
Video summary of the Sony Xperia XZ1 that has no waste
We finish with the performance that comes from the hand of a processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 of eight cores and architecture of 64 bits. This latest model improves energy efficiency and offers us incredible graphics to enjoy games, applications and images with the highest detail and without losing a bit of fluidity. Its 4 GB of RAM and the 64 GB of UFS internal memory are partly responsible for everything running at the speed of light.
The only point that will throw more than one user back is its price but it is what the elite range has … they are expensive to say enough.

Yamaha Motor Receives Second Successive "Winner" Accolade in "German Design Award" International Design Competition - News Releases | Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd.
IWATA, October 23, 2017—Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd. (Tokyo: 7272) announced today that its XSR900 motorcycle and 242 Limited S flagship sports boat have both been given the title "Winner" in the transportation category of the "German Design Award" competition. These achievements mark the second year in a row that Yamaha Motor has received this Award, following last year's success by the YZF-R1 motorcycle.
In the German Design Award, the German Design Council recommends products from around the world which have already been evaluated as of a high design standard. Only after receiving that recommendation can an application be made for this internationally-prestigious design award. The title of "Winner" is an award of excellence bestowed only on works chosen by a jury from within each category.
The XSR900 was developed to satisfy riders in developed markets - where the culture of enjoying motorcycles as a hobby is well-established - who prefer a more "traditional" style. The simple and retro exterior combined with performance through cutting-edge technology provide pride of ownership along with riding enjoyment. This award also marks the seventh design honor for the XSR900, following award achievements in the Good Design Award 2016: BEST100, Auto Color Awards 2016: Special Awards, JIDA Design Museum Selection 2016, iF Design Award 2017, Red Dot Award 2017: best of the best, and the International Design Excellence Awards 2017: finalist.
The 242 Limited S is Yamaha Motor's top model jet propulsion sports boat.
