Q: sphinxql query mysql How to use such a query in sphinx via sphinxql ?
SELECT t1.value_id, t1.option_id, COUNT(DISTINCT t1.product_id) AS total
FROM table1 t1
LEFT JOIN table1 t11 ON (oov2p.product_id = oov2p1.product_id)
WHERE t11.option_id = 10012 AND t11.value_id IN (456105035,2199381524)
GROUP BY t1.option_id, t1.value_id

A: Sphinx doesn't support joins, so there's no easy way to run this query in Sphinx.

A: Well, while sphinx itself cant run 'join' queries between muitiple indexes.
You can use a 'JOIN' in the 'sql_query', so can create a sphinx index that is 'prejoined' so could run a query like that.
source  mysource {
   ...
   sql_query =
      SELECT t1.product_id, t1.value_id, t11.option_id, GROUP_CONCAT(t11.value_id) as t11ids
      FROM table1 t1
      LEFT JOIN table1 t11 USING (product_id)
      GROUP BY product_id

  sql_attr_uint = option_id
  sql_attr_multi =  uint t11ids from field

Which would then allow you to run a sphinxQL query somewhat like....
sphinxQL> SELECT id, option_id, COUNT(DISTINCT product_id) AS total
FROM myindex
WHERE option_id = 10012 AND t11ids IN (456105035,2199381524)
GROUP BY option_id;

I've simplified the exact attributes saved, Your example query is a bit confusing with value and option_ids from mulitple tables.
.. so its only to sort of demonstrates the conscept, rather than a full example.
The key point is you store any columns you want to filter or 'group by' (or order!) as actual Attributes in the index, then can use them in the sphinxql query!
(note the use of the special Multi-Value-Attribute (mva), this is a concept pretty unique to Sphinx where mutiple values are stored in one row, like the output of GROUP_CONCAT(). but allows pretty complex indexes, when the source tables are a one-to-many relatioship, stores values from the 'many' side)


Most have heard someone referred to as a "cool cat." Now, students can hear where the phrase comes from with Jazzy Cat!This playful piece is in 4/4 meter and C major, but don't be fooled,this solo moves forward with a spritely vigor! The use of bluenotes---notes written to sound like they fall between the cracks of thekeyboard---paints a very jazzy picture. Students will also find thatgiving staccato notes attention will bring out the sly cat's playfulnature.

CSRE 180E: Introduction to Chicanx/Latinx Studies (CHILATST 180E)
This course draws on intersectional and interdisciplinary approaches to introduce students to the range of issues, experiences, and methodologies that form the foundation of Latina/o/x studies. By considering the relationship between the creation of ¿Latinx¿ and ¿American¿ identities, students will critically reconsider the borders that constitute the U.S. as a political and cultural formation. The course balances depth and breadth in its study of the variety of perspectives and experiences that come to be associated with U.S. Latinxs. Thus, we will analyze the histories of predominant U.S. Latinx sub-groups, such as Mexicans/Chicanxs and Puerto Ricans, while also incorporating considerations of the ways in which broader populations with ties to Central America, South America, and the Caribbean play crucial roles in constituting U.S. Latinx identities. Topics include the U.S./Mexico border and the borderlands; (im)migration and diaspora; literary and cultural traditions; music and expressive practices; labor and structural inequality; social movements; Latinx urbanism; gender and sexuality; political and economic shifts; and inter- and intra-group relations. Sources include a range of social science and humanities scholarship.

How Anna Deavere Smith, Sherman Alexie, Shailja Patel or Ta-Nehisi Coates consider redrawing such lines so that center and margin, or self and other, do not remain fixed and divided. How linguistic borderlines within multilingual literature by Caribbean, Arab, and Asian Americans function. Can Anzaldúa's 1986 conception of borderlands be constructed through the matrix of language, dreams, music, and cultural memories in these recent American narratives? Course includes creatively examining one's own identity.

The Idle American: Are coincidences divine appointments?
Don Newbury
Dorm suite mates from 30-plus years ago—(LtoR), Lisa Langham, Melody Weinhandl and Anna Ramos.
The older I get, the more I believe that our God of ages past also reunites old friends, sometimes through a telephone miracle.
It is a good thing that we have memories to sort through while we shelter in place. Grammarians or not, we're given to making the present tense, and the past, perfect.
As we take stock of what used to be–while greatly shaken by "what is"–we think back on happenings faced hurriedly the first time. Some considered coincidences then may have been divine appointments.
Here's one: A couple of university suitemates three decades ago believe the renewal of their friendship was re-ignited by a random telephone connection….
They received diplomas in 1990 at Howard Payne University in Brownwood, both honored in numerous ways as exemplary students. Anna Maree Delgado (now Ramos) and Melody Sheree Frerich (now Weinhandl) went their separate ways. Later, Anna–a directory assistance operator for Southwestern Bell in Austin–was among the last operators answering, "Long distance" when folks needed phone numbers.
In 1997, Melody was settling in with her dentist husband, Dr. Brent (Smokey) Weinhandl, who had begun his practice in his native Canada. They had met when he was a dental resident in Denver, where she was employed at University Hills Baptist Church.
Two weeks after meeting at church, they were engaged to be married….
Melody called "Ma Bell" to get the phone number of a friend in New Braunfels. Thinking the voice of the operator in Austin sounded familiar, she asked, "Is this Anna Maree?" The response: "Is this Melody?"
It was, and soon they were reliving old college days, catching up on each other's lives.
What are the odds that a telephone call from Wetaskiwin, Alberta, Canada, would be answered by a telephone operator in Austin? And that the women on each end of the line would have been college suitemates for three and a half years at a little Texas university almost a decade later?
The older I get, the more I believe that our God of ages past–and for all the days to come–not only knows the number of hairs on our heads and feeds hungry sparrows, but He also reunites old friends, sometimes through a telephone "miracle."…
Maybe "exemplary" is not strong enough to describe these women, both of whom are warmly remembered on campus. They were well-grounded in their Christian faith and mature beyond their years.
Anna and hubby Eric Ramos have a daughter in her senior year at HPU now.
The family resides in Pflugerville, and Anna is employed by Dell Technology….
Melody and I have something in common. We both were HPU journalism majors, albeit three decades apart, and she was the last "J-school" graduate before the program was terminated during my HPU presidency.
She is the office manager for Smokey's dental practice, where equipment has been modified for physically-challenged patients–widened doorways, for example.
Until a camping accident eight years ago, he never thought he'd be practicing dentistry from a wheelchair….
Full of faith and immeasurable courage, he overcame a traumatic spinal cord injury, broken back, three broken ribs and a cracked sternum. Fellow dentists in Casper, Wyoming, "covered" for him during extensive recovery and therapy.
He's back, practicing dentistry daily. The Weinhandls are committed to ongoing research for patients with similar injuries, and both continue to think "outside the box." Last week, they contributed several dozen gloves and masks to Wyoming Medical Center to support medical colleagues on the front lines, fighting the coronavirus. They are urging fellow dentists, as well as veterinarians and other medical specialists, to join them in the effort.
I'm beyond impressed by his website. It reflects his competence, courage, faith, and compassion for patients. How many dentists do you know who publish both favorite scriptures and personal cell phone numbers on their websites? Check out brooktroutdental.com, even if you don't often get to Casper….

Favorite book EVER! Great characters! Good, good, good! Great story, characters, and moral. Great fantasy mixed with our world and putting the Bible retold into it. Amazing story, good for all ages.
The imagination of the author is awesome. After Mack gets an invitation to go to the shack, he encounters a turn-of-events that changed his outlook on life. He was raised with an abusive and left home at an early age. He joined the military got married and life began to happen for him in his senior years. This book has a touch of theology and a connection with God that speaks to anyone's heart. At times I had to keep looking at the fact that this is a fiction book. It made you want to get in touch with God yourself. It kept my attention and anticipation for what was going to happen. I recommend this book for people who need to heal from bad experiences and for those who just want to talk with someone about a good book they have just read.
One Tuesday Morning was recommended to me from my hair dresser and I am thankful to her that she did. Although my husband is not a firefighter, he was an active military man (as a matter of fact reenlisted a month before this attack to the ARMY again) and I knew it would change our personal live very much.
This is the first book I've ever read by Karen Kingsbury, and it was a good one to start with. The story is EXCELLENT and absolutely captivating. It was probably the most heart-wrenching thing I have read in a VERY long time. I can't remember the last book that literally had me choking back tears through a good portion of it!
Set against the backdrop of 9/11, the story is fiction, but could very possibly have happened. In the wake of the 9/11 tragedy and a case of mistaken identity, two families' lives are completely turned upside down and changed forever. Changed in a way for the worse, but so many ways for the better. Both families learn how to cope. One family must learn how to be a family, while the other family (a close knit family) must learn how to live with sudden and permanent loss. This book will have you giggling one minute and sniffling the next, and then send chills down your spine. I HIGHLY recommend you pick this one up and take the journey I did in a matter of just two weeks (which for me is a very fast read).
That said, I ran out right after the 1st sequel and crapped Beyond Tuesday Morning, and started it right ahead.
In this final book from Thomas Kinkade's "Angel Island" series, Adele Morgans heart is heavy because of a family dispute that has torn her family apart.
She returns to Cape Light at Christmas with hopes of mending the broken relationship between her sons and bringing their families together for the holidays.

Inverness restaurants discuss blacklisting booking no-shows
By Calum MacLeod
- calum.macleod@hnmedia.co.uk
Norman MacDonald (centre) is worried about the impact of people booking tables at restaurants and then not showing up.
Customers who fail to honour their bookings with local restaurants could find themselves blacklisted for not showing up.
The issue of restaurant no-shows has attracted national attention since the hospitality sector was allowed to reopen following lockdown.
And there are worries the problem may only get worse as the Eat Out to Help Out scheme launches this week, encouraging diners to use local cafés and restaurants from Monday to Wednesday throughout August in return for 50 per cent off their bill.
Norman MacDonald, owner of Café One in Castle Street, Inverness, said: "When you are reduced to 65 covers and two people don't show up, it does have a big impact. It also means other people don't get the opportunity to use the tables."
Bruce MacGregor, of MacGregor's Bar in Academy Street, pleaded with customers directly.
"For most people, getting through this year will be on a knife edge, so if you can't make it, at least let us know," he said.
"We have been lucky because we get walk-ins, but you have lost the table for at least half-an-hour."
If the problem of no-shows persists, Inverness could have to follow restaurants in Edinburgh and Glasgow in asking for non-refundable deposits, he suggested.
The names of repeat offenders could also be shared with other businesses.
"If you have the names of no-shows, we could let other businesses know to look out for them," Mr MacGregor said.

Here's the latest update from USANA's Susanne Cunningham, who is among a group of 15 climbing to Mt. Everest Base Camp.
For more on the trek, please visit the What's Up, USANA? Mt. Everest Trek 2012 page.
Day 6. We're at the memorial site honoring many who died climbing Mt. Everest (above photo).
My friend Alison Lockhart, also a USANA Associate, asked me to find a cairn of Blair Griffiths who died in the Khumbu ice field in 1982 while serving as photographer for CBC's Canadian Everest expedition.
This request added an additional purpose to my trek. I am happy to say we were able to find the cairn and fulfill Alison's request in the site near Dugla on Day 6 of our trek.
Below is the actual cairn of Blair Griffiths.
Inspiration is all around. We met 7-year-old Aaryan Balaji (trekking to Everst Base Camp to be the youngest trekker according to Guinness World Records. She presently is the youngest deep sea diver). She is here with her mother, Riki, and father, Commander Balaji (he has successfully summited Everest).
Never too young or too old to step into inspiring self and others.

Top Florida education official tells schools they have no obligation to follow new federal Title IX non-discrimination guidance

Just days after 22 states filed a lawsuit fighting the new US Department of Agriculture policy seeking to protect against discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity, Florida's top education official is advising schools in his state to ignore the guidance.
In a letter, Florida Education Commissioner Manny Diaz Jr. tells superintendents, school boards, private school owners and charter school governing boards they have "no obligation" to follow the new Title IX equity rules laid out by the Biden administration.
Title IX prohibits sex discrimination at federally funded schools. The new guidance threatens to withhold federal funding for school lunch and other USDA programs if states fail to protect against discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity.
In the letter issued Thursday and sent to CNN, Diaz says policies protecting against LGBTQ discrimination by the US Departments of Education and Agriculture "should not be treated as governing law."
He referenced a recent ruling in a lawsuit involving the Department of Education, where a federal judge ruled the Biden Administration must pause its enforcement of federal guidance seeking to protect transgender students and workers in 20 Republican-led states.
"The Department will not stand idly by as federal agencies attempt to impose a sexual ideology on Florida schools that risk the health, safety, and welfare of Florida students," Diaz writes in the letter.

Federal judge temporarily blocks Biden administration from protecting transgender students and workers in 20 states
US Department of Education officials said in a statement, "This is another attempt from Florida politicians to foster a harmful environment of fear for LGBTQ+ students, and that is unacceptable. The Department of Education has made clear its view that Title IX includes protections against discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity. The Department regularly receives and investigates complaints of discrimination against LGBTQ+ students – as it has done for the previous three administrations.
"While the rulemaking process is underway for our proposed rule, we will continue to evaluate complaints in Florida and elsewhere to assure compliance with Title IX. Federal civil rights law, including Title IX, preempt state or local law when there is a conflict between the two," the statement went on to say.
Diaz also criticized guidance issued by Florida Agriculture Commissioner, Nikki Fried, who sent a letter to superintendents clarifying the new USDA policy and warning, "Discrimination based on the updated protected classes will result in the same noncompliance as discrimination against the other protected classes."
The Miami-Dade County School Board met on Thursday, July 28, 2022 to reverse a decision to reject new sexual education textbooks that they approved just three months ago over concerns that rejecting the curriculum would leave schools out of compliance with state requirements.

A copy of Fried's letter was shared with CNN by Florida Department of Education spokesperson Alex Lanfranconi.
"Commissioner Fried threatened to remove Florida's most vulnerable students from the National School Lunch Program if our schools do not accept the Biden Administration's radical gender ideology. We will not allow our children to be used as bargaining chips for individuals who are motivated by self-interest rather than the health and safety of all students," Lanfranconi said in an email to CNN.
Fried, a Democrat, is running for governor in Florida. CNN has reached out to the USDA and Fried's office for comment.
Diaz wrote in the letter schools are not required to give transgender students access to bathrooms or allow them to compete on sports teams that do not match the sex assigned at birth. He said otherwise, schools would "jeopardize the safety and wellbeing of Florida students and risk violating Florida law."
The administration of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has a history of instituting restrictive polices concerning LGBTQ students. Last year the governor signed a law banning transgender girls and women in public secondary schools and colleges from participating on girls' and women's sports teams. In late March, he signed House Bill 1557, the Parental Rights in Education law, known by opponents as the "Don't Say Gay," law which prohibits classroom instructions on gender identity and sexuality for students in kindergarten through third grade.
Last month, Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody joined 25 others in a letter to the President expressing disdain for the new USDA policy. However, the state was notably absent from the lawsuit filed earlier this week.

College wide approaches that support inclusion for all in the Digital World
The swift move to remote and hybrid learning has magnified significant challenges that already existed around student access to online environments and accessibility of online teaching tools, materials and practices. Accessible digital infrastructure and staff awareness on how to apply inclusive practice and accessibility principles within their own remit are essential to delivering a quality experience for student with disabilities.
With new legislation on the horizon in Ireland's imminent transposition of the EU Web Accessibility Directive, this theme explores approaches that seek to embed inclusion and digital accessibility practices in the fabric of the college/centre through the implementation of college-wide policy, the featuring of accessibility and inclusion pointers in all staff guidance, the development college campaigns and toolkits, and wide scale professional development programmes relating to inclusion. It explores work that seeks to build a culture where inclusion is everyone's business.

Marie-Michelle Deschamps + Bryan-K. Lamonde: Better Times
YYZ, September 16, 2017 2 min read
MARIE-MICHELLE DESCHAMPS + BRYAN-K. LAMONDE | BETTER TIMES
16 SEPTEMBER 2017 – 2 DECEMBER 2017
FRIDAY 15 SEPTEMBER 2017, 6:00PM – 9:00PM
In 2012, Marie-Michelle Deschamps and Bryan-K. Lamonde collaborated on The Twofold Room, a book-object linking philology and architectural form. This book took the reader on a journey following a horizontal line; a line starting with a red carpet, breaking at the reception desk, deploying itself endlessly in a hallway, and folding at the bedroom, where suddenly another appears, as it is, evidently, a double room. The Twofold Room explored the loss of identity caused by moving from one language to another as well the nightmare of interconnected elements slowly drifting apart.
At YYZ, Deschamps and Lamonde prolong their exploration of language as an inhabited space, a key element of their respective practice. They once again play with the material properties of words, letters, and signs, and use them as spaces to collapse, conceal, or inhabit; all the works acting as translations of our experience of the world of objects and forms — a world that we experience physically, but which is also wholly contingent upon language, it being in fact an inhabited space of language.
With Better Times, a simultaneous opened-ness and closed-ness acts to unsettle through a default of décor, to question whether there is any content separate from the process or means of revealing.
MARIE-MICHELLE DESCHAMPS is an artist based in Montreal, Quebec. Her work focuses on the ambiguities of deconstructed language and its transposition in signs and objects. The elusive signification exhibited in her drawings, sculptures and sounds works allow for figurative, abstract, and literary interpretations. She holds an M.A. from the Glasgow School of Art. Recently, her work was presented at MUDAM, Luxembourg (2017); Ausstellungraum Klingenthal, Basel, Switzerland (2017); Darling Foundry, Montreal (2016) and Glasgow International, Scotland (2016). In 2018, Deschamps will show her work at Diagonale, Montreal and at Parisian Laundry, Montreal.
BRYAN-K. LAMONDE is a graphic designer based in Montreal and one of the co-founders of Principal. Working in the realm of contemporary art, his approach has allowed him to collaborate, to create new approaches and to dialogue with numerous artists that share his concerns that are located at the crossroads of art and design. In addition to working with Deschamps on The Twofold Room (2012), he also contributed installations in the exhibitions L*, at the Darling Foundry (2016), Montreal and at Galerie UQO, Gatineau (2016).

Hello Lovelies! Have you ever wondered if you would benefit from a microdermabrasion treatment or not? First things first, lets find out what microdermabrasion actually is 🙂 Microdermabrasion is a borderline medical and cosmetic treatment. Until recently, it was used only in doctors' offices, and now thanks to technological advances is used in beauty salons. It is hard to overestimate the advantages of microdermabrasion – the security is similar to home peels, effectiveness and can without be compared with invasive dermatological treatments.
Microdermabrasion is a non-chemical and a non-invasive procedure. It uses a spray of micro-crystals to remove the top layer of dry, dead skin cells and reveal younger, healthier-looking skin.
Microdermabrasion is perfect for people with fine lines or wrinkles, age spots, sun damage, uneven pigmentation, clogged pores, skin texture problems. People with rosacea or acne may also benefit from microdermabrasion treatments.
The ideal candidates for microdermabrasion are healthy adults who have relatively minor skin conditions or imperfections and realistic expectations about what microdermabrasion can and cannot do. Because microdermabrasion is a mild, non-invasive procedure.
Microdermabrasion is not recommended for people who have deep scars, active keloids, undiagnosed lesions, a recent herpes outbreak, warts on the face, active acne (stages 3 and 4), an auto-immune system disorder, or unstable diabetes.
Pregnant women should not undergo microdermabrasion.
Candidates who have had a recent chemical peel or other skin procedure such as collagen injections should wait two to three weeks before undergoing microdermabrasion.
Prospective patients should also refrain from waxing or tanning the skin to be treated for a few weeks before microdermabrasion treatment. Individuals with deep scars, facial creases, or other moderate-to-severe skin defects should consider a stronger treatment such as a chemical peel, dermabrasion, or laser skin resurfacing.
This time last year I was looking at my face after the long winter months, and to me it looked horrible. All I could see were blackheads, large pores and a lot of imperfections.
I did take a photo of my face before and after the series of microdermabrasion treatments just for myself so that I could justify spending €400 on 5 treatments in the space of five weeks. I was looking for these photos the other day and surely they are nowhere to be found. i must have deleted them when I was freeing up some space on my phone.
I got a series of five treatments done over five weeks. Even after five treatments my large pores didn't disappear, but they got noticeably smaller. Small lines disappeared, my skin looked healthy and glowing. I loved the effect and planned to get a microdermabrasion done every couple of months, but that didn't happen. Considering that the treatments can cost anything between €50.00 – €100.00 1h treatment, it is an expensive facial to be doing every 1-2 months, so I found a replacement, glycolic peels done at home. Effects are the same for just a fraction of the price.
If you don't know how to do peels go and get microdermabrasion done a couple of times a year. The treatments usually last an hour. There is no downtime and there is no hassle with them. You will notice a difference even after one treatment.
I have to get back to doing the peels every 2-3 weeks to rejuvenate my skin after the long wintery months.
How are you? I follow you on Instagram and love your posts.
Let me know if you are interested to try it.

On Wednesday, I boarded a plane in order to head to Unalakleet, site of Bering Strait School District's headquarters in order to participate in a bilingual training session with a student and our site's bilingual teacher. Joining us were representatives from 8 of the other schools in the district.
Before I go into detail about the topic at the heart of this post, the native language dictionary that is being created, I want to point out something that I have found since living in the village. (And something that was pointed out to me earlier today during a conversation with my mom.) My students are all bilingual. Except that isn't really true. My students should all be bilingual. In reality, they have a slightly better grasp on their native language than I do on my old high school french, which is a shame.
This is a recognized problem and one of the big reasons for having a bilingual program in our schools. As teachers, we try to integrate local culture into our lessons, but that isn't really enough to preserve the way of life. The ability to speak the Inupiaq or Yupik languages that are native to the region is disappearing.
With that in mind, the Inupiaq dictionary project was started and has since expanded to include a Yupik dictionary. The big idea of the project is to get students to go out into the community, identify the native words for different things, take pictures if they can and upload it all, along with a voice recording of the word being pronounced.
Preserving culture, teaching technology skills, life skills and writing skills all while having students contribute authentic work to a valuable resource. That's what I call motivating and educational.
A little over a week ago, I got the opportunity to travel to Nome, AK for the district's Tech Liaison training. It was my first visit to Nome, which is odd since Nome is the largest "city" in the region (population – approx. 3,600). Most of the time was spent in the NACTEC house(Northwestern Alaska Career and Technical Center), where students from around the region come to learn technical and career skills during the school year and where we set up camp for 2 days in order to learn about the tools we use to keep technology in our schools up and running. I'm not going to write about the training except to mention that it is already making my life easier, instead, I'm going to write about Nome itself.
Nome also has a reputation as a mining town and for those of you familiar with active mining towns in very remote locations, you already know what this means. For the rest of you… Nome is dirty. Nome is dingy and one could even call parts of it ramshackle. There's a feeling of age, but also of haste; mining booms don't leave much time for planning, zoning laws and strict oversight.
Underlying it all is the history of the town though. Everyone knows about the, Iditarod the annual dogsled race that commemorates the delivery of diphtheria serum from Anchorage via dogsled. Fewer people know that at one point, Nome was the largest town in Alaska; that the US Postal Service refused to allow the town to change it's name to Anvil City in 1899 or that few of the original gold rush structures have survived numerous fires and violent storms. The history is what draws me to the town, it is what makes me want to visit it again sometime. It isn't a place I'd like to live, but a place that would be interesting to study and learn about first-hand.
Note to readers: I spent less than 48 hours in Nome, most of that holed up inside a building training. I only spent 3-4 hours exploring the town (and that was spent on Front St.), this is what my viewpoint is based upon and is therefore reflective of a short-term visitor and not someone who lives there.
I'm told it's not snowing 40 miles away in Shaktoolik, just windy and cold, which is apparently what winter looks like there. Until later!
As some of you know, shortly after my arrival in the Bush, I met someone at my first teacher inservice. She's from a nearby village and when the district brought us back to the district office for training the next week, we decided to try a relationship – though neither of us knew exactly what it would look like or how it would work.
Well, it has been about 5 weeks now and I can clue you in on how a relationship in the Bush works. It looks quite a bit different from a normal relationship – in fact, it probably resembles internet dating in quite a few ways.
First, there are (usually) nightly instant messenger sessions to answer the all important questions that people apart usually want to know, "How was your day?" and "What have you been thinking about?" It's an instant messenger conversation because long distance phone calls are expensive and besides, neither of us has a telephone. VHF handsets, which are common for communication in the region, can't cover the 40 miles between the two villages, nor do we want everyone within the range of the radios listening in on idle chitchat and personal conversations. Usually, nighttime conversations are multi-tasked with cooking, cleaning or working on lesson plans.
Then, maybe once a week, usually on Friday evenings, we find two or three hours to set aside and actually talk to hear each other. Usually, I'm reminded of what a poor substitute text is for voice – so many nuances and feelings simply aren't conveyed through words and emoticons alone. Unfortunately, copper doesn't carry the conversation, instead it goes over an internet program called Skype, a voice-over-ip or internet telephone system – which is carried over our satellite links. And the delay between speaking and being heard is about a second, which results in a fair bit of talking over each other before someone realizes it and lets the other finish their thought.
This week – we did something new. A video dinner date using Skype. And like my mentor teacher told me the experience would be, it was one of the highlights of my week. (Along with a reminder that I haven't had a haircut in almost two months now.) Hopefully this becomes part of our routine as it's a better substitute for actually seeing one another regularly that we've found.
Before coming to the Bush, I never really thought that 40 miles would be long distance. It's less than an hour's drive most places – here it is a 6ish hour window of time when the plane might show up, if the weather is good, followed by a 20 minute flight. That's after forking out $160-$200 for the plane tickets. In a lot of ways, that 40 miles is more like 400. Come winter though, snow and ice will cover the landscape and Norton Sound and I'll be able to snowmachine there and see her instead. It is odd to think of winter as the season of mobility and travel opportunities, but that's life in the Alaskan Bush.
Every week, I work with my social studies classes to learn maps. My Intro to US class is learning all of the states and in addition to names, capitals and abbreviations, I'm trying to teach them a little bit about the history of each state. This week, we added Utah to our maps and I touched on Mormonism and mentioned that they had to give up polygamy to become a state.
Moments like that, when I can hardly stop myself from falling on the floor laughing are what keep me going.

Born in what is now the Ukraine, Bernard Meninsky attended the Liverpool School of Art in 1906, and later studied in London and Paris. Generally, Meninsky was a figurative artist who worked in oils, watercolour and gouache. In 1920 he was appointed tutor of life drawing at the Westminster School of art, and noted for his accomplished draughtsmanship.
Meninsky's first solo show was at the Goupil Gallery in 1919, and he published Mother and Child: 28 Drawings in 1928. The Mother and Child displayed here is most likely related to this series, and this subject was clearly important to the artist.
Despite the delicate theme, this work is bold and monumental in its composition, as the figure is presented in a vague landscape. While the simplification of form makes it harder to discern the pose of the mother and child - she appears to be holding the baby at arms length yet on her knee - this only adds to the distinctive and striking presence of this painting.

Commentary / Japan
U.S.-Japan ties must go beyond domestic politics
Hina dolls of U.S. President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris on display in Tokyo on Thursday | AFP-JII
by Joshua W. Walker
Shortly after being inaugurated as the 46th President of the United States on Jan. 20, 2021, President Joe Biden signed 17 executive orders, among them pledging to rejoin the Paris Climate Agreement. Earlier that week, Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga vowed to boost Japan's economy through the realization of a green society and promotion of digital transformation.
In this time of crisis, both the United States and Japan have similar interests as well as many of the same challenges. Under America's new leadership, mutual understanding and a return to political normalcy in the United States should further strengthen U.S.-Japan relations. The time has never been more critical.
No president since Franklin Delano Roosevelt has faced a more important 100 days in office. As a leader who has been in politics for almost half a century, Biden has put his reputation on the line. His focus is on working class Americans and the economy, as well as repairing America's image abroad and trying to fix the "America First" rhetoric that led many allies, particularly in Europe, to distance themselves.
Returning to more normal politics is only one part of the solution, but now other matters can be addressed — from health to social justice to economic issues — in a more systematic way, at the government and technocratic level. America's divisions are real, and we have to come back together if we are going to lead the world.
President Biden's cabinet members and close advisors are true to his own centrist personality and level of experience. From Cabinet members such as Secretary of State Tony Blinken and Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen to his closest aides like White House chief of staff Ron Klain and national security adviser Jake Sullivan, all are experienced hands who have held leadership positions in government before.
One of President Biden's first warnings to his staff — that he would fire anyone who does not treat others with respect — sets the tone not just for his team but for America's engagement in the world.
Return to a state-driven foreign policy
The biggest difference between foreign policy in the Trump and Biden eras is tone and personality. President Biden's approach will be systematic and deliberative, backed by the entire apparatus of state. That gives our allies, particularly countries like Japan, a sense of comfort, but it also makes adversaries, such as Russia or China, nervous because they cannot as easily manipulate the president on a personal level.
It is critical for those outside the U.S. to understand that, despite Biden's long experience in international affairs, the president's number one priority is domestic rebuilding — to help America recover from the health and economic battering by COVID-19, as well as repair the internal divisions sown over the past years.
Foreign policy priorities will have a clear focus on climate change and repairing transatlantic relations. The Trump administration more or less continued a realpolitik of American foreign policy in Asia but in Europe there was a complete breakdown because of Trump's unusually close relationship with Russia and coolness toward institutions like the EU and NATO.
In Asia, the new focus will be on potential areas of collaboration, such as a free and open trade architecture; infrastructure and Indo-Pacific engagement; and reinforcing our alliances in the face of the largest foreign policy challenge that Biden inherits, a looming conflict with China. The U.S.-China relationship will define his presidency and the next decade at least, for the world, and certainly for U.S. foreign policy makers.
The one area in which many expect continuity is on China, where there is bipartisan consensus on the hard line that Trump took with Beijing. Yet a new way is needed — one of engaging in a constructive trade and economic relationship that does not have to be zero-sum. In this regard, Japan will play a critical role as a front-line state next to the Asian landmass. This is where the Biden administration should work much more closely with Japanese allies to lower the temperature, while building clear deterrence capabilities for the future.
U.S.-Japan going forward
U.S.-Japan relations were extremely warm under Donald Trump and a bright spot in U.S. foreign policy, mainly because of his personal relationship with former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. With the change of administration in Tokyo as well as Washington, Biden is a better fit for the Suga administration; both new leaders are political insiders whose strengths are working within the systems, with deep, technocratic support.
President Biden's instincts and personnel selections in dealing with Asia point toward a focus on areas of common interest without dwelling on the past. It will be important for his administration to resist the instinct to distance itself from the previous administration's work with Japan, whether on the Indo-Pacific strategy or bilateral free trade agreements. Rather, it will be critical to build on these accomplishments and celebrate our alliance that has only strengthened in this Asian century.
For the Suga administration, it is key to understand the character of President Biden and his administration, understanding that our destinies are tied together. Japan's economic and domestic recovery, leading to the Olympics this summer, will be a critical milestone it cannot achieve alone. Recent pessimism in Japan from an uptick in COVID cases need not determine what the summer brings, but a committed partner in Washington to see the Olympics through will send a powerful signal that can transcend the traditional tricky issues of U.S.-Japan relations. Focusing on what the Suga administration is prioritizing — a digital agency, Japan's innovation and the economy — is also in America's own best interests.
The United States and Japan should get back to where their two economies, the first and the third largest in the world, can work in tandem to invest in each other and help economies like China's fit in and follow the rules-based system that was co-created and maintained since the end of World War II. There is too much at stake to let domestic politics drive divisions.

Home / Design / Malabar Hill's Treetop Trail to Replenish Mumbai's Ecosystem
Malabar Hill's Treetop Trail to Replenish Mumbai's Ecosystem
Sakshi Agrawal Apr 09, 2022 0
Designed by IMK Architects, Malabar Hill's Treetop Trail aims to replenish Mumbai's ecosystem. Mumbai has always been a city of paradoxes – the rich and the poor, the skyscrapers and the slums, and the concrete jungle and the old natural ecosystem. Growing urbanization in a city already packed to the brim, as well as rising housing and infrastructure demand, are devouring the city's remaining green spaces. The Malabar Hill Elevated Forest Trail by IMK Architects is an attempt to sustain one of the last remaining natural ecosystems of Mumbai – The Malabar Hill Forest. The Malabar Hill Forest Trail is an elevated wooden walkway full of twists and turns. This trail is for people to indulge and experience this natural urban forest. This project presents a pioneering way to resuscitate the degrading urban ecosystems. These ecosystems are victims of unchecked development while maintaining the genetic stock of biodiversity.
Malabar Hill's Treetop Trail – Design Philosophy
The Malabar Hill Forest Trail brings the concept of eco-tourism to the middle of the burnt-out city of Mumbai. Visitors will indulge in an enveloping journey with nature while traversing through this trail. The project is a collective initiative of the Malabar Hill Citizens' Forum, the Nepeansea Road Citizens' Forum (NRCF), and IMK Architects. The JSW Foundation also supports this endeavour. Slated for completion by the end of 2021, this project gets its funding from the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC).
"A historically popular venue for joggers, athletes, nature lovers, and leisure seekers from the Malabar Hill neighbourhood, the forest today seems to be falling into a state of disrepair and neglect." Temporary and permanent dilapidated structures engulf the forest. These include a stairwell, a greenhouse, older steps, trails, fences, outworn guardrails, and so on which increases the threat of encroachment along the eastern edge of the forest.
Need for this Trail
Because of continuous soil erosion along the steep slopes, the hillock's subsoil has started to give way. Moreover, the area is increasingly becoming a centre of antisocial activities such as liquor brewing and drug consumption. These activities create safety concerns. Clearly, the forest and the ecological systems it supports are threatened. If left unsupervised, they will eventually be completely overrun.
"The Malabar Hill Forest Trail thus arises out of the urgent need to preserve and restore the forest's rich ecosystem, while creating a new, sustainable interface between nature and the city." The 12-acre green pocket of Malabar Hill Forest houses an abundance of flora and fauna. These include trees like Gulmohar, Copperpod, Mango, Coconut, Rain tree, Jamun, and Jackfruit. They also include a dozen rare birds including the Rose-ringed Parakeet, Hornbill, Coppersmith Barbet, Magpie-Robin, Golden Oriole, and Peafowl. This diverse mix of plants and wildlife creates a recreation spot full of ecological diversity.
The Proposed Walkway Design
The new elevated walkway will follow roughly the same path as the two existing trails on the ground level. It will stretch for a total length of 705 metres, taking visitors through the entire forest. "The site will be fenced on the ground level and ingress/egress points will be provided at either end of the trail, connecting it to the two existing, prominent points of access for Malabar Hill: a 192-step stairway from the Babulnath temple in the south and a 100-step picturesque stairway carved into the hill from the Hughes Road bus stop area in the south-west, both of which will be restored as part of the project." Additionally, the designers propose building a utility block with toilets, ticket booths, and other public amenities at the start of the trail towards the west along Siri Road.
The elevated walkway minimises impact on the forest floor.
The trail design and construction ensures that it does not destroy a single tree in the forest. The walkway will stand on a series of easily repairable or replaceable cylindrical epoxy-coated structural steel columns. In relation to the terrain, column heights will vary from a minimum of 2m to a maximum of 10m. These low-impact pile foundations also make sure that they do not interfere with the existing tree-root systems of the forest.
Benefits of the Malabar Hill's Treetop Trail
"The seemingly simple intervention of elevating the trail will regulate visitor access to the forest on the ground level, as well as minimize the use of concrete on the forest floor." As a result, the natural water flow through the hillside and wildlife movement in the forest will not be disturbed.
The elevated walkway will be constructed without damaging a single tree.
Construction Materials & Detailing
The walkway deck will use local, weathered Sal wood in order to blend the path into the forest. "It will be supported by steel joists over structural steel beams, which will themselves be supported by the columns. Averaging 1.5m, the width of the deck will increase every 150m to accommodate amenities for visitors: from 1.5m to 3.6m to include seating zones, and to 5.4m to accommodate expansive viewing decks, one of which will feature a glass bottom."
The designers propose to place warm lighting fixtures within the Sal wood balustrade to minimize light pollution spilling onto the forest floor. Strategically placed information panels and small kiosks along the walk will help first-time visitors and infrequent visitors. A network of CCTV cameras will monitor the precinct. Litter bins will be placed at regular intervals to deter littering.

The project will work with Jewish, Christian and Muslim women in Manchester and use Middle Eastern food as a way to build community cohesion and reduce tensions.
For Jewish and Muslim communities in Britain, events in Israel/Palestine often affect good relations. Christians and others also may have strong views about the issue which cause conflict. Evidence shows that differences over the Middle East lead to community tensions, aggressive behaviours and even violence. Calls for boycotts of goods affect supermarkets and others.
FODIP will run seminars for women in Manchester which focus on Middle Eastern food. These will include both dialogue on attitudes to food and goods from the Middle East, including fair trade issues and women's cooperatives, and provide opportunities to eat together. Sharing a meal is a major factor in promoting peaceful relations, especially in the Middle East. Women are the focus because they still play a major role in food production and buying, and also may have stories to tell.
To bring women from different backgrounds together to consider difficult issues in a relaxed way.
» Run sessions where women can explore their own and others' attitudes to the Middle East in a practical way, through the medium of food.
» Provide opportunities for women to explore practical issues of fair trade, food boycotts and programmes run by Israeli and Palestinian women.
Success will be having the involvement of around 25 different women from at least 3 different cultural or religious backgrounds in the seminars.
To promote co-operation locally in a Middle East project for national Inter faith Week 2013.
Success will be in welcoming over 300 visitors to the Jerusalem Market events or exhibitions.
The project will enable improved communication between Jews, Christians, Muslims and others on difficult issues, particularly where they involve the Middle East. Success will be measured not only by anecdotal evidence of reduced tensions around these issues, but by a 15% increase of women in cross-communal initiatives locally where this includes women from the project.
There are two sets of risks involved. Practically, we will consult an approved expert regarding health and safety and food issues. We will also ensure that kosher, halal and other requirements are met as far as possible. The other risks involve the exploration of potentially divisive issues. FODIP has devised tried and tested methods for introducing and dealing with these in the Middle East context. The important point is that those involved get to know each other as individuals.
We will keep donors updated by means of regular newsletters. they will also be invited to the Jerusalem Market events.
£960 Seminars Running 4 seminars for women in 2 locations.
Manchester is home both to the second largest Jewish community in the UK and also has a large Muslim population. It has experienced considerable tensions as a direct result of events in the Israeli/Palestinian situation, but it also has a good interfaith network and channels for cooperation.
This project will help in the construction of community cohesion. It will encourage good personal relations between individuals across the communal divide, and especially it will give a voice to women who might otherwise feel marginalised.
FODIP has a strong Manchester base. We are experienced in helping people with strong and conflicting views talk about the Middle East in a positive and constructive way.
Director of FODIP. Jane will manage the project, with the help of volunteers. She is experienced in project management and dialogue on this topic.

How Maths Is Used In Cricket And Basketball?
James Parnell answered
What is the use and application of maths in both cricket and baseball?
Mathematics is used extensively in both these sports.
The most obvious (and simplest) example of the application of maths in cricket is in counting the team's runs, individual player's runs, and wickets.
A batsman's average would involve the application of the mean average.
The bowler will also have an average, one which requires maths for its calculation.
Working out the run rate, the average runs per over, and various other individual and team statistics all involve a significant degree of mathematics.
The most complicated application of maths in cricket is called the Duckworth-Lewis method. This is used to amend a run total if play has been affected by rain.
Again, the simplest example of mathematics being used in baseball is in the counting of the number of runs each team or player has scored.
A batsman's batting average is commonly calculated. This is done by taking the total number of hits and dividing it by the number of bats.
As for pitchers, their earned run average (ERA) is normally calculated. This statistic is used to calculate how many runs a pitcher is leaked on average every nine innings.
The sport applies mathematics in many more ways, too!
Both these sports require the extensive application of mathematics.
Maths is used in cricket to calculate the amount of runs, balls, wickets. It can also be used to measure the length of the pitch so that the players don't have to run too far or too close.
Count the score!

A first look at Apple Music on Android
By Jacob Kastrenakes@jake_k Nov 11, 2015, 11:16am EST
Source Apple Music (Play Store)
Share All sharing options for: A first look at Apple Music on Android
Apple usually only brings up Android when it has something bad to say, but the story is a little different when it comes to streaming music. In order to compete in the crowded streaming field — and take on early giants like Spotify — Apple needs to be everywhere that people want to listen. So yesterday, Apple launched Apple Music on Android, and it isn't leaving Android users with a second-rate experience.
Pretty much everything from Apple Music on iOS is here
Apple Music on Android is almost identical to Apple Music on the iPhone. You have the same general interface for setting up your music tastes, controlling song playback, and browsing curated playlists. But Apple has made changes here and there to make it fit in better with Android. Sections of the app are hidden away in a menu off to the side, rather than located in tabs along the bottom as they are on iOS, and small changes to icons and font go far enough to avoid feeling like this is a misplaced iOS app, even if it's still leaning on Apple's design language.
Nearly all of Apple Music's features have come over, too. You can get music recommendations, listen to Beats 1 radio, and browse the social Connect section. The app is technically in beta right now, so some features are missing — like music videos — but those should be added in the near future.
There isn't much to add at this point on how these experiences work: it's still Apple Music, everything good and bad about it. The app can be a little confusing, but there's a lot in it; the playlists are great, but on the shorter side; and Connect still feels like the new Ping — all things we pointed out during our initial review. On the brighter side, even though this is Apple's first real Android app (save for a migration tool), it seems to have done a fine job of making it. On my Nexus 5X, the app ran just as smooth as you'd expect it to.
Apple isn't changing the game with this release on Android — if you already like Apple Music, you'll like it here; if you're already committed to Spotify, there's little to steal you away. What Apple is doing, however, is declaring itself a serious entrant in the streaming music space. Apple realized a long time ago that you need to be on multiple platforms to succeed in music — just look at iTunes, which it brought over to Windows early on. If Apple ignored Android, it would be giving up on more users than it could ever get on iOS. That's not a recipe for success (and it's certainly not something that artists want to hear when Apple Music is fighting for an exclusive). Apple Music is a solid first Android app from Apple, but it's really just the start of Apple's entry into streaming music.
