Marie-France Boisvert
A native of Saguenay-Lac St-Jean, Marie-France Boisvert has more than twenty years of artistic experience in painting and sculpture.
Boisvert first obtained, in 1997, a first BAC in Graphic Communication at Laval University in Quebec, then, in 2004, a second BIA in Sculpture at the University of Chicoutimi. Finally, it was in 2008 that she finished her academic training with a Masters in Creation at the same university in Quebec.
Marie-France Boisvert's work reflects her current state of mind, her feelings and emotions, and expresses her own interpretations of the changing face of this world.
Through her mediums, the artist journeys towards a destination that she may not know but that she recognizes when she arrives there. Anonymous characters, children's games, synaesthesias of animal figures, Boisvert draws inspiration from metaphor to describe how people interact with each other and with their environment. In his work, the artist stages an analogy between the ephemeral and suspended time, between perception and emotion, placing the viewer as the witness of symbolic moments.

Headed south on the Sterling Highway, Soldotna is located about an hour from Cooper Landing. With the Kenai River at its back door, Soldotna is a great getaway for avid fishermen and women. The world record sport fishing king salmon was even caught there. If fishing isn't what you're looking for, outdoor adventure options include raft trips, flightseeing and canoeing. A day on the water can leave visitors with a healthy appetite and there are plenty of local dining options.
Kenai, a 20-minute drive from Soldotna along the Kenai Spur Highway, offers stunning views of Cook Inlet. Visitors can fish for four different species of salmon, rainbow trout and grayling from the world famous Kenai River or head out to the Inlet for halibut fishing. Kenai's history dates back to 1791, when Russian fur traders settled the area. Head out for a stroll and check out Old Town and the Kenai Visitors and Cultural Center or try some local cuisine.
Nestled on the shore of Kachemak Bay at the end of the Sterling Highway, about two hours and 15 minutes from Cooper Landing, is the charming town of Homer. Known for a thriving art community, Homer boasts several local art galleries that celebrate first friday as well as a historic museum and theaters. Travelers can drive out on the Homer Spit, a long, narrow finger of land that juts four-and-a-half miles into Kachemak Bay, and enjoy a day of guided fishing or sea kayaking adventure. When it's time to eat, there are plenty of local restaurants, many of which specialize in fresh Alaska seafood.
If you'd like to read about more road trip possibilities from the Kenai Princess Wilderness Lodge, check out this previous blog post about stop between Cooper Landing and Anchorage.

Angel's Triangle (formerly Devil's Triangle) is a neighborhood located in Northeast El Paso in El Paso, Texas. It lies within a right triangle bordered by Dyer Street on the east, the Patriot Freeway (U.S. Route 54) on the west, and Hondo Pass Avenue on the north.  Dominated by apartment complexes and older duplexes or single-family homes with a high poverty rate among its residents, and once notorious for crime, drug trafficking and prostitution, it was known as the Devil's Triangle before being officially renamed at a meeting of its residents in the 1990s. and is still sometimes referred to as such, or as the Triangle. The neighborhood's commercial portion is along its eastern and northern edges, on Dyer and on Hondo Pass, respectively; there is almost no business development along Gateway North Boulevard at the western edge of the Angel's Triangle.

Demographics
According to the 2000 census, many residents of the area faced poverty, with 65 percent living below the poverty level. Around 1,800 children under 18 lived in Angel's Triangle in 2000.

History
Angel's Triangle was originally nicknamed the "Devil's Triangle" because of the shape of the area and the high crime rate. In the early 1990s, the area experienced high rates of drug dealing, prostitution and gang violence. In 1993, a group was formed by Mr. and Mrs. Luis Aguilera called the Angel's Triangle Association (ATA) which had been identifying community needs for the area. Also in response to crime in the area, police officers led by officer Raul Prieto, decided to implement a program to improve the safety of the neighborhood. This community policing effort was funded by grants under the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act. The program involved training officers and the community alike to start referring to the neighborhood as the Angel's Triangle, and involved community participation in neighborhood clean-ups. Within three years of implementing the program, there was a 35% decrease in all crimes in the area. The programs enacted in the 90s have helped the neighborhood feel safer, but it still remained a high-crime area in 2003. By 2010, residents reported feeling safe, despite the run-down look the area still had.

Education
It lies within the El Paso Independent School District and is zoned to Irvin High School and Canyon Hills Middle School; most of it is zoned to Moye Elementary School located just outside the neighborhood to the east, except for the northernmost part, from Maxwell Avenue north to Hondo Pass Avenue, which is zoned to Whitaker Elementary School. Wainwright Elementary School, opened in 1949, closed in 2005, and since used by El Paso ISD as a science center, is located in Angel's Triangle; for many years and for some time after its closure its student clinic also served neighborhood residents who did not attend the school. Part of its playground has been leased to the city of El Paso as a neighborhood park; the only other park in the neighborhood is Wellington Chew Park on Maxwell Avenue off Gateway North, which has a senior citizens' center.

Parks and recreation
The Nolan Richardson Recreation Center is available for afternoon programs for children and teens.

La dicromatopsia es una enfermedad de la vista consistente en que el individuo que la padece solo tiene dos de los tres tipos normales de receptores del color. Es por lo tanto un defecto en la percepción de los colores que se incluye dentro del daltonismo.

Dependiendo del tipo de receptor que falte, pueden presentarse tres tipos de dicromatopsia:

 Los protanopas carecen de receptores de onda larga (carencia de sensibilidad al color rojo). Si una luz roja se hace más brillante que una luz verde, el protanopa confundirá estos colores. El punto gris de neutralidad cromática está en 492 nanómetros.
 Los deuteranopas carecen de receptores de onda media (carencia de sensibilidad al color verde). Esta deficiencia es más común que la protanopia y afecta también a la discriminación entre el verde y el rojo (También llamado daltonismo). Las ondas cortas tenderán a aparecer azules y las largas amarillas. El punto gris de neutralidad cromática está en 498 nanómetros.
 Los tritanopas carecen de receptores de ondas cortas (carencia de sensibilidad al color azul). Esta anomalía es muy poco frecuente entre la población (1 entre 20.000 personas). Las ondas cortas son verdes y las largas, rojas. El punto gris de neutralidad cromática está en 570 nanómetros.

Joyce Lynn (Jantz) Stubbs was born on April 29, 1934 in Davenport, WA to Howard and Dorothea (Timm) Jantz and passed away peacefully, surrounded by loving family on April 10, 2019 at Providence Sacred Heart Hospital in Spokane, WA. Her family is grateful for the excellent care and compassion she received during her last days at Sacred Heart. Joyce was preceded in death by her parents, her husband Charles Leonard Stubbs, brothers Donald Jantz and Kenneth Jantz, sisters-in-law Carolee Jantz and Doris Jantz, and brothers-in-law Gaylord Jones and Herbert Hink. Joyce attended Davenport schools and graduated from Lewis and Clark High School. She was a member of Alpha Delta Pi sorority and attended Washington State College. She married the love of her life, Charles Leonard Stubbs, on November 27, 1954 at Zion Lutheran Church in Davenport. They were blessed with the births of 3 children, Brad, Jene' and Leslie. After several years as a homemaker, she returned to finish her Bachelor's degree in Education at Eastern Washington State College and would later complete her Masters in Education. Her first teaching job was in Harrington, WA and she finished her greater than 30 year teaching career at Davenport High School. She was a dedicated and inspiring educator—one who worked hard to build an influential business department at DHS. She touched a lot of lives and forged the basis for careers in business and other vocations for many. She loved teaching, and was especially thankful for her career and the support of her students and colleagues after being widowed at a young age when "Stubby" passed away on February 3, 1987. She was the recipient of many awards including the Washington State Business Teacher of the Year. Joyce was fiercely independent, protective of her family and over the moon in love with and proud of her grandsons. She was always there when friends or family needed her most. She was blessed with many close lifelong friendships. She loved all things Wazzu, her students, playing bridge, being a "lady farmer", hosting family gatherings and keeping her family connected. Survived by son Bradley (Dr. Margretta) Stubbs, Silver Spring, MD; daughters Jene' (James Jr.) Fisher, Spokane and Dr. Leslie Stubbs, Boise, ID; brother Jerome Jantz, Cheney, sisters-in-law Helen Jantz, Davenport, Edith Jones, Newport, and Gail Hink, Hermitage, PA; grandchildren Kevin Stubbs, Durham, NC; Chris Stubbs, Madison, WI, James Fisher III, Pullman, and Griffin Shultz, Boise, ID as well as numerous cousins, nieces and nephews. Celebration of Life services will be held at St. Mark's Lutheran Church in Spokane on June 22, 2019 at 1:00 pm. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to St. Mark's Lutheran Church, Zion Lutheran Church in Davenport or Elson S. Floyd College of Medicine – Washington State University.
I have known Mrs. Stubbs my whole life. She was my Mom 's (Verna Knack) best friend and colleague at Davenport High School. I took every class that she taught at DHS, and I worked with her on the Yearbook every year for four years. Mrs. Stubbs had a profound impact on my life, and her influence on my life is why I am an educator today. After high school, Joyce encouraged me to pledge her sorority of Alpha Delta Pi at Washington State University, and she wrote a letter of recommendation on my behalf. I am a proud ADPi sister and alum of Upsilon house because of her. When my Mom was spending her last days of her life dying of pancreatic cancer at Lincoln Hospital in Davenport, Joyce came to visit Mom every day. Much love to her family at this difficult time.
I knew Mrs Stubbs both as a student at Davenport and as a family friend. My first memories was as a student, She could never find her keys since it was a daily practical joke that the students would hide them. "Now people..." was a phrase she used a lot when those keys were misplaced. She thought she got smart and have the keys on a ring she could fit on her wrist but then they were so heavy she would leave then in her side closet door lock. The keys still came up missing.. I also had Mrs Stubbs as a cheer advisor. There were several times we would travel and she was the driver. Sorry to report she was not a good driver we would worry about her going off the road or we would get car sick because of the lack of a steady speed,fast then slow, fast then slow. It would get us every time..
On the day I graduated she informed me that I could call her Joycelyn and not Mrs. Stubbs. That was quite a right of passage. She was a good friend to my mom and there was many "Hunter Gatherings" that the Stubbs family joined in on. I remember them fondly .

Review: 'Riverine' by Angela Palm
By Beth Kephart
Angela Palm's Riverine evokes Mary Karr, Annie Dillard, Jo Ann Beard and J.R. Moehringer while speaking in a singular voice. (Greg Perez Studio photo)
"Riverine" has done its thing to me. It has seeped into my blood and left me messy inside — alerted, diverted, and scrambling to get a hold on time. I want a conversation with the author.
Her name is Angela Palm. Her book, the winner of the Graywolf Press Nonfiction Prize, is subtitled "A Memoir From Anywhere but Here," though "Riverine" might more rightly be thought of as a collection of memoiristic essays — closely linked meditations on a life of wild wants and porous losses. Palm's obsessions are residual landscapes, inherent contradictions, and the Kankakee River of Indiana, where her childhood years were sown. Her preferred techniques are the literary braid, the soft chant, the metaphorical overlay, the wayward but (most often if not always) potent digression.
Early in the book, Palm prepares us for what is to come:
Flowers bloom and drown. Dogs die. A friend kills. The sediment is dredged for valuable metals. The water rises and recedes. Everyone hangs on, waiting for a life preserver or else not. A girl becomes a woman, nearly normal, not quite. The girl, our girl, makes it out of the riverbed, but she carries traces of brown water in her lungs and sediment in her pockets so she knows the river is still there, despite all her moving on.

By Kevin Nance
Throughout she asserts the power of juxtaposition and her willingness to subscribe, to a young mind, the abundant wisdoms of a backward-gazing adult. Palm's divagations most frequently twine back to a boy named Corey, her next-door neighbor, who returns, in scene after scene, as a child in a window, a glimpse of the future, the choice Palm ultimately cannot make when an act of uncharacteristic violence sends Corey to prison for life. Here Corey is, in Palm's memory, when the future is still a possibility:
Outside my white square of window stands a large sycamore tree that sways in the nighttime wind. When I'm scared, I watch the boy in the window across from mine to help me fall asleep. He is my bedtime story, and he keeps the monsters away. I watch him laugh and jump off his bed when he is alone. I watch his brothers beat up on him. I watch his mother scold him. We are both so powerless. I believe that someday he'll save me and we'll disappear, wriggling free from this place like little Houdinis.
Here he is, years later, when Palm, now married and the mother of two, visits him in his correctional facility. When what they have, most searingly, is all that might have been:
When he did appear, at last, I was startled. He was a mountain of a man, solid and soaring as he walked toward me. In a word: gorgeous. I was caught abashed, wondering if I passed muster.
In "Riverine," one is reminded of Mary Karr ("The Liars' Club") as Palm reports on her father and the men who gather for games of card, who laugh "their gravelly laughs," who take "another drink from their cans of beer," and who allow the observant Palm into their circle. One returns, in one's mind, to J.R. Moehringer's "The Tender Bar," as Palm describes her years working at the local dive, the River, which, with its sad stories and deep connections, becomes, to her, "another kind of church." One thinks of Jo Ann Beard and her talent for suspending time.
Robert Kennedy biography charts making of a 'liberal icon'
Robert Kennedy focus of new biography by Larry Tye
By Bill Daley
One also thinks, when reading Palm, of Annie Dillard and Dillard's saturated metaphors — Dillard's inclination to see, in natural things, the portent of human choice and consequence. Palm does that, too. Often. From the chapter titled "Bifurcation": "Above us, a silver moon hung sideways from a black sky. Soon, the world would swing sideways with it, unhinged, split wide and dripping."
Palm stretches the envelope of truth on the page. She experiments with (then sometimes repeats) essayistic forms. There are returning metaphors, recurrent scenes, displacements. There are essays where, perhaps, Palm pushes the digressive weave too far. "Map of Corn," for example, which braids the family's move to a new home with a summer spent detasseling corn with scenes with a young boyfriend (a boy who is not Corey) does not achieve momentum.
But there is volumetric power here. Sizable intrigue in the sentences. Bold declarations that (as all memoir must) destabilize the reader and paralyze easy judgment on both the life lived and the words chosen. Angela Palm has left the river and returned to it. Angela Palm has arrived.

Q: Add timedelta to a date column above weeks How would I add 1 year to a column?
I've tried using map and apply but I failed miserably.
I also wonder why pl.date() accepts integers while it advertises that it only accepts str or pli.Expr.
A small hack workaround is:
col = pl.col('date').dt
df = df.with_column(pl.when(pl.col(column).is_not_null())
                    .then(pl.date(col.year() + 1, col.month(), col.day()))
                    .otherwise(pl.date(col.year() + 1,col.month(), col.day()))
                    .alias("date"))

but this won't work for months or days. I can't just add a number or I'll get a:
> thread 'thread '<unnamed>' panicked at 'invalid or out-of-range date<unnamed>',
         ' panicked at '/github/home/.cargo/registry/src/github.com-1ecc6299db9ec823/chrono-0.4.19/src/naive/date.rsinvalid or out-of-range date:', 173:/github/home/.cargo/registry/src/github.com-1ecc6299db9ec823/chrono-0.4.19/src/naive/date.rs51
:note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace

Most likely because day and month cycle while year goes to infinity.
I could also do this:
df = df.with_column(
        pl.when(col.month() == 1)
        .then(pl.date(col.year(), 2, col.day()))
        .when(col.month() == 2)
        .then(pl.date(col.year(), 3, col.day()))
        .when(col.month() == 3)
        .then(pl.date(col.year(), 4, col.day()))
        .when(col.month() == 4)
        .then(pl.date(col.year(), 5, col.day()))
        .when(col.month() == 5)
        .then(pl.date(col.year(), 6, col.day()))
        .when(col.month() == 6)
        .then(pl.date(col.year(), 7, col.day()))
        .when(col.month() == 7)
        .then(pl.date(col.year(), 8, col.day()))
        .when(col.month() == 8)
        .then(pl.date(col.year(), 9, col.day()))
        .when(col.month() == 9)
        .then(pl.date(col.year(), 10, col.day()))
        .when(col.month() == 10)
        .then(pl.date(col.year(), 11, col.day()))
        .when(col.month() == 11)
        .then(pl.date(col.year(), 12, col.day()))
        .otherwise(pl.date(col.year() + 1, 1, 1))
        .alias("valid_from")
    )

A: Polars allows to do addition and subtraction with python's timedelta objects. However above week units things get a bit more complicated as we have to take different days of the month and leap years into account.
For this polars has offset_by under the dt namespace.
(pl.DataFrame({
    "dates": pl.date_range(datetime(2000, 1, 1), datetime(2026, 1, 1), "1y")
}).with_columns([
    pl.col("dates").dt.offset_by("1y").alias("dates_and_1_yr")
]))

A: You can use polars.apply and dateutil.relativedelta which works for years, months, days and much more, but can be slow for lots of data.
from datetime import date
from dateutil.relativedelta import relativedelta

df = pl.DataFrame(pl.date_range(date(2019, 1, 1), date(2020, 10, 1), '3mo', name='date'))
df.with_column(pl.col('date').apply(lambda x: x + relativedelta(years=1)))

Update: Since the offset_by method is now also available for months, it should be used whenever possible (see accepted answer). I leave this answer here because the approach can be used for more complicated cases that are not supported by offset_by.

Casino Tycoon Wants to Make Philippines 'Next Hawaii'
Japanese gambling tycoon Kazuo Okada, who is opening a new $2.4 billion casino resort in Manila, said Wednesday he hoped to make the Philippines "the next Hawaii" as he looks to expand his business there.
In addition to Manila, Okada said he was also exploring the possibility of operating resorts on the Philippine islands of Palawan and Boracay, both major tourist attractions, in a bid to tap the lucrative Chinese market.
"I would like to make the Philippines the next Hawaii, given that there are a lot of great beaches here," he told ABS-CBN television in an interview aired late Wednesday.
"China, Beijing, the air is polluted and I feel there are people (there) who would want to get away, go to a fresh place and I think the Philippines would be one of the best tourist spots for everybody," he said through a translator.
Okada's new property in the capital will initially employ around 10,000 people and is one of four mega-casinos planned on a glittering strip fronting Manila Bay dubbed Entertainment City.
The country is targeting revenues of $7 billion, roughly the levels of Singapore and Las Vegas, by 2020, as part of its bid to become one of the world's top gambling destinations, after the Chinese enclave of Macau, the gaming industry's capital.
Okada's project — now set to open during the first quarter of 2017 — has been dogged by delays that saw the Philippines' gambling regulator threaten to suspend the company's license last year.

Q: How to get the action from a button? In my program, there are 5 five button. Different actions will be performed based on the choice of the button. However, I just assign one IBAction to all button. Is there any method that can help me to detect which button the users choose inside a single IBAction? Thank you so much!

A: Assign each of the buttons a unique tag property. Then, check this in your IBAction method:
- (IBAction)theActionDone:(id)sender
{
    UIButton *button = (UIButton *)sender;

    switch (button.tag)
    {
        case 1:
        {
            //do stuff for button one
            break;
        }

        ...
    }
}

A: The sender will be the calling objects.
- (IBAction)theActionDone:(id)sender;

If you have many buttons calling theActionDone: above, the sender is the button calling (either the cell or button control, either way you can work your way up from there).

A: Assuming your buttons have their
@property (strong, nonatomic) UIButton *menuButton;

You can change the function like this:
- (IBAction)actionButtons:(UIButton*)sender {
    if ([sender isEqual:menuButton]) {
        NSLog(@"Menu Pressed");
    }
}

This way you can use the tags for something else (I use them to denote in what stage I am of the interface for example)
PD: You might want your button to be weak, i got them linked as strong for a reason.

Donald Trump Is a Middle School Bully and He Wants Your Lunch Money
You, an American voter, are being conned.
Donald Trump has promised you jobs, a booming economy, security and American pride. He is lying to you. Trump has told you that he can stick it to the man, but the problem is that Trump is the man, someone who built an empire by taking his daddy's money and then sticking it to the little guy.
Trump does not fight for you. Trump fights for Trump. Anything that gets damaged along the way—including you—doesn't matter. Take a moment to google "Trump takes insurance from child" or "Trump kicks veterans off Fifth Avenue." You'll see it in about 2 seconds.
The Oscars Are So Predictable … Normally
I'm an unapologetic fan of the Oscars. First and foremost, I enjoy the movies. But there is a certain political dance to the award season that I also find very entertaining (as if watching politics wasn't aggravating enough for me).
This year I actually managed to watch every Best Picture nominee before the awards ceremony (this Sunday) and it's a fine crop of films. From my favorite to least favorite:
Spotlight Teaches Us To Be Wary Of Ourselves
On the surface, "Spotlight" is about the Boston Globe investigative team that broke the story of the dozens of priests had committed sexual abuse against disadvantaged youth and how the Catholic Church had covered up cases of child abuse to shield these abusive priests.
The reason I wasn't interested in this movie is because I know about this story. I mean … who doesn't? The knowledge of the Catholic Church's shame here is practically a part of our culture. There are dozens of movies, books, and documentaries on this disgrace chapter of the Church. What more could Spotlight possibly bring to the table?

Supporting Trump Means Losing Far More Than This Election
We face an election in a time when politics threaten more than ever before to intrude on everyday, ordinary life … a time when Christian business owners sometimes risk losing their livelihoods, men are being given the right to walk freely into women's bathrooms, and the lives (and body parts) of countless unborn children are on the line.
And at such a crucial moment, are people so angry at the government and the Republican Party that they would run the risk of putting a maniac behind the wheel?
The Cruz-Rubio Decathlon
In the race to beat Donald Trump for the GOP nomination, the options are increasingly narrowing to a choice between Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio. Fortunately for Trump, these factions in the GOP are at each other's throats, becoming increasing furious with each other.
The real problem is that Rubio and Cruz come in way too close in the actual voting results (within 1.1 percent in New Hampshire, within 0.2 percent in South Carolina) and we have no standard for determining which nominee should step aside to boost the other past Trump. Sure there are various arguments out there like "Cruz is the only one to beat Trump" and "Rubio's numbers against Hillary are the best" but all these arguments feel too much like "Here's an excuse I have that supports my preferred candidate" rather than evidence that would be applied objectively.
'The Big Short' Plays on Your Worst Fears … But Like in a Fun Way
Ignore the subprime loan shop talk and Margot Robbie in a bubble bath for a second (if you can) and think of "The Big Short" as a pulsing, kaleidoscopic exercise in 21st-century filmmaking—because that's what it is, a uniquely modern marriage of dusted-off Hollywood staples and shiny zeitgeist.
A little bit Vox, an awful lot BuzzFeed, "The Big Short" is the film equivalent of your daily flipping between Chrome tabs: a Wall Street Journal piece on interest rates, the latest People magazine cover interview, an in-depth New York Times something that you skim, and a quiz asking "What Kind of Hamburger Are You?"
7 Times Trump Accidentally Showed He's Not Religious … at All
I dislike Donald Trump's blowhard, fear-mongering, liberal-in-conservative's-clothing campaign for a lot of reasons, but there's one in particular that makes me see red: whenever he mentions faith.
I'm an evangelical Christian, and my religious convictions influence my political leanings more than anything else. And I'm here to tell you that Religious Trump is fake, fake, fake.

Nearly 39 million have sought US jobless aid since virus hit

WASHINGTON (AP) — More than 2.4 million people applied for U.S. unemployment benefits last week in the latest wave of layoffs from the viral outbreak that triggered widespread business shutdowns two months ago and sent the economy into a deep recession.
Roughly 38.6 million people have now filed for jobless aid since the coronavirus forced millions of businesses to close their doors and shrink their workforces, the Labor Department said Thursday.
An additional 2.2 million people sought aid under a new federal program for self-employed, contractor and gig workers, who are now eligible for jobless aid for the first time. These figures aren't adjusted for seasonal variations, so the government doesn't include them in the overall number of applications
The continuing stream of heavy job cuts reflects an economy that is sinking into the worst recession since the Great Depression. The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office estimated this week that the economy is shrinking at a 38% annual rate in the April-June quarter. That would be by far the worst quarterly contraction on record.
Nearly half of Americans say that either their incomes have declined or they live with another adult who has lost pay through a job loss or reduced hours, the Census Bureau said in survey data released Wednesday More than one-fifth of Americans said they had little or no confidence in their ability to pay the next month's rent or mortgage on time, the survey found.
During April, U.S. employers shed 20 million jobs, eliminating a decade's worth of job growth in a single month. The unemployment rate reached 14.7%, the highest since the Depression. Millions of other people who were out of work weren't counted as unemployed because they didn't look for a new job.
Since then, 10 million more laid-off workers have applied for jobless benefits. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said in an interview Sunday that the unemployment rate could peak in May or June at 20% to 25%.
Across industries, major employers continue to announce job cuts. Uber said this week that it will lay off 3,000 employees, on top of 3,700 it has already cut, because demand for its ride-hailing services has plummeted. Vice, a TV and digital news organization tailored for younger people, announced 155 layoffs globally last week.
Digital publishers Quartz and BuzzFeed, magazine giant Conde Nast and the company that owns the business-focused The Economist magazine also announced job cuts last week.

WASHINGTON (NewsNation Now) — President Donald Trump will leave Washington next Wednesday morning, ahead of President-elect Joe Biden's inauguration, according to the Associated Press.
Trump will be sent off with a departure ceremony at Joint Base Andrews, according to a person familiar with the planning who spoke to AP on condition of anonymity because Trump's plans have not been formally announced.

(NewsNation Now) — The global death toll from COVID-19 topped 2 million Friday as vaccines developed at breakneck speed are being rolled out around the world in an all-out campaign to vanquish the virus.
WASHINGTON (NewsNation Now) — President-elect Joe Biden unveiled his American Rescue Plan on Thursday. The $1.9 trillion coronavirus plan is expected to provide much-needed relief to the economy by speeding up the vaccine rollout, provide financial help to individuals, states and local governments and businesses and include a third stimulus check.
NewsNation's Aaron Nolan broke down the details of the plan in a live interview with "The Cow Guy", Scott Shellady, an expert in global finance. You can view the full interview in the player above.

The ride-hailing platform Lyft is offering half-off coupons for rides within Rogers Park, responding to neighborhood concerns about two recent killings police believe were carried out by the same person.
Ald. Joe Moore announced the program Wednesday, after several local business owners say they came up with the idea.
Lyft will provide discount cards good for half off two rides within the Rogers Park Community, Moore said. The coupons can be picked up at his office, at 7356 N. Greenview Ave.. Or they can be mailed to residents, he said.
The recent homicides, Sept. 30 and Oct. 1, have caused concern among neighborhood residents, who packed a police meeting last week. Erik Archambeault, owner of Rogers Park Social (6920 N. Glenwood Ave.), said neighborhood businesses have been hurt. Mostly, though, he said he and some other local business owners were looking for a way to help neighbors feel safer.
"It wasn't [about] the decline in business," he said. "We were all afraid to walk to work." Archambeault said.
Archambeault said the business owners originally talked to Uber. And Moore said that company may still offer a similar coupon.
"Lyft, to their credit stepped up to the plate and agreed to help. Uber, the other major ride share company, has agreed to consider it, but is still working out some technical glitches," Moore said in his statement.


On Monday afternoon, an allegedly unarmed man who tried to break into the building where Fox News 5 in Washington, D.C., was shot by a female security guard.
One Fox News 5 anchor reported, "We have had a shooting here at the Fox 5 studios. This happened shortly after 3:00 this afternoon. What we are being told at this point is that there was somebody who was trying to get in to our front lobby, which is what you are seeing on your screen there right now. You can see the police tape that is up around the building, quite an active scene here, someone tried to get in from what we understand, was able to get through one door, we have a double set of doors, and tried to get into the building, but a security guard that is employed here was able to was able to fire off a shot."

Want a Higher Level Review? Here's what to Expect
If you are seeking a Higher Level Rating from the VA, you now have a year to appeal from receiving your VA decision.
Just this year, on February 19, it was announced that the VA was switching to the new veteran's appeals law called the Appeals Modernization Act (or, AMA). This marked the end of the VA's RAMP program, under which it could take as long as three to seven years to have your appeal decided.
With the newly reformed system, some appeals were being processed and reviewed in only 36 days. For those who have disagreed with their original VA Claim determination, this new efficiency in the appeals process is very welcome.
Before this new law was signed by President Trump on August 23, 2017, backlogged appeals were numbered around 450,000. This was a 350% increase from 2001 when 100,000 appeals had been pending.
Under this new law, the AMA promises faster decisions, earlier resolutions, and a more efficient overall review process. It also promises to give veterans more decisions regarding their VA review process.
Reasons to seek a Higher Level Review
How do I start pursuing my Higher Level Review?
How does the appeals process work?
What do I do after submitting my appeal?
What if I disagree with the Higher Level Review decision?
What does this mean for me?
Under the Appeals Modernization Act, there has been an incredible success rate of veterans receiving more significant benefits. Not only that, the appeals process has been quickened so much as to no longer be as discouraging due to demonstrably long waiting periods.
This means that if you find any disagreement with your original VA Rating determination, there is ample reason to pursue a Higher Level Review to increase your benefits.
In addition, check out this YouTube video I created which shows you my NEW TIPS about HLR's!
To begin the appeals process, a veteran must fill out and turn in the Decision Review Request: Higher Level Review form (VA Form 20-0996). This can be submitted via mail, Fax, or by turning it indirectly at the nearest VA facility.
Once your form is submitted, you have several options. You can wait for the VA to request more information or schedule exams for you. Or, you can request a conference call with your reviewer to speak with them about any errors you identified on your original claim and reasons why you think your decision should be rendered differently.
Under the new system, you may also electronically track the status of your claim.
Any appeal for Higher Level Review (or HLR) from a veteran will be assigned a Decision Review Officer. This is a senior adjudicator who will take a fresh look at the previous VA decision. These officers are more experienced than those who first reviewed the claim and are generally based in a different location. This initial review will only consider the evidence presented initially in the claim. This is called a de novo review.
The officer then may overturn the decision if they disagree with the original decision. They may also find errors made in the assessment. If an error is encountered, they can request a correction.
The VA officially asks for 125 days (roughly 4 months) to complete the appeals process. However, under the AMA, it has been found that, in many cases, the process has gone much faster.
The VA typically will not require anything more of you while you are awaiting the decision on your HLR.
The HLR has finished, and you've received your new decision, but you see it isn't what you had hoped for. Are there any options left?
Fortunately, yes. If you aren't satisfied with the review, you have the option of appealing directly to the Board of Veterans Appeals. This process is not as straightforward or as quick, but it is available.
Another option is that you may begin a Supplemental Claim. In this case, you will need to present additional evidence on top of what was submitted in your original claim and Higher Level Review.
Veterans may not appeal a Board decision to a Higher Level Review or request a Higher Level Review of the HLR you received. You also cannot appeal to the Board consecutively.
If the Board issues a decision you disagree with, you may continue with a Supplemental Claim or appeal to the Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims (or CAVC).
Appeals to the Board are officially supposed to be determined within one year. Also, so long as the appeal has remained active, there will be no change to your potential effective date for benefits.
In conclusion, the good news is that the appeals process has been made much more efficient under the AMA. This is excellent news for veterans who may have previously been discouraged by the lengthy appeals process. With the new, much quicker review turnarounds, those who may not have sought Higher Level Reviews for greater benefits now have greater incentive to do so.
The AMA is still young, but to this point, many veterans have been pleased with the results of the HLR requests.
As of this writing, the process of appealing for an HLR is more straightforward and more timely than ever.
If you have found disagreement with the decision of your VA Claim, be encouraged that there are more options than before, and your chances to receive a fair and satisfying benefit are much improved.

Students and Nature Wildlife Facts
Swimming with Salmon, Splashing with Beavers
Immersive Learning in the Methow Valley
Sarah Bates | October 5, 2018

Preparing for our beaver pond vigil, Professor Phil Brick expressed some doubt that a group of nearly two dozen lively and excited college students would be able to sit silently for a full hour at dusk. "Put on your layers now, and don't bring your phones," he cautioned, adding that even the sound of zippers might scare off the beavers we hoped to watch emerging in the evening light.
The students, participants in Whitman College's landmark immersive learning program, Semester in the West, joked and jostled as they made their way to the pond's edge, but immediately settled into their camp chairs with barely a rustle. Soon they were rewarded with one and then a pair of beavers swimming in long patrols parallel to the shore, clearly sniffing and peering at the visitors but only occasionally registering alarm with a loud tail slap and dive underwater.
It was a fitting end to a day that included an exploration of a marshy, frog-filled beaver-pond complex in a tributary of the Methow River in north-central Washington. At the direction of Kent Woodruff, one of the founders of the Methow Beaver Project, 21 student-scientists waded, splashed, and scratched their way through lush vegetation in a hunt for clues about the watershed.
Hands-on learning in the Methow Valley (photo by Sarah Bates)
Their findings? This headwater stream–once a dried-up channel in the late summer–was transformed into a vibrant home for birds, frogs, bear and moose after the Methow Beaver Project released a pair of beavers whose busy work was less welcome elsewhere. Now, just two years later, the dams built and maintained by the beavers have effectively slowed seasonal runoff, providing ponds and a higher water table to support lush stands of aspen, willow, wild rose and other native trees and shrubs.
Kent queried the students and wove their observations into an integrated picture of complex ecosystem "machinery" at work (see sidebar for examples), highlighting the key role of beavers as ecosystem engineers.
The next day, we gathered in a large circle at the students' campsite on the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife's Methow Wildlife Area, embarking on a wide-ranging, interactive conversation about beavers, watershed restoration, climate change, and conservation strategy. Best of all, we were joined by Ben Goldfarb, author of the acclaimed new book, Eager: The surprising secret life of beavers and why they matter, who memorably described Kent Woodruff as "The Beaver Whisperer."
Beaver activity in the Methow Valley, WA
The Methow Valley was one stop among dozens on the Semester in the West students' trek across the interior West, an exhaustive (frequently exhausting) immersion in natural resources conflicts, values and solutions. The undergraduates selected for participation in this wildly popular program spend an entire semester on the road, sleeping in tents, sharing their encounters in online profiles and photos, and supported by a high-tech converted horse trailer complete with solar panels, satellite communications, and a full office with library resources for research and writing.
Before they departed the Methow Valley, the "Westies" had the opportunity to swim with salmon in a local river, handle and learn about rattlesnakes, spend a memorable day on a windy ridge with a raptor monitoring team, and meet philanthropists and political leaders whose efforts to protect this valley and beyond date back to some of the first spotted owl surveys and fights over ski area development in the 1970s.
Close encounters with a rattlesnake
The National Wildlife Federation hosts multiple programs to engage children, their families and communities with nature. It's particularly satisfying to connect with college students focusing full-time on the landscape, wildlife and people of the West. We're depending on their passion and commitment to finding sustainable solutions to lead us into the next era of conservation.
At the very least, they know how to sit quietly and pay attention.

Vessela Baleva | August 16, 2016
With the Olympics and Paralympics in Rio de Janiero soon coming to a close, we're rounding up what there is to see in the capital as well as the rest of the country. From flamboyant Rio to the Amazonian city of Manaus, Cox & Kings' Latin America expert Vessala Baleva has put together some hot tips on getting the most out of a trip to Brazil and its exciting cities.
Brazil's most famous city is home to legendary beaches, tropical rainforest, the rhythms of samba, and a world-renowned carnival, not to mention the lively local cariocas (Rio's residents). From the iconic Christ-the-Redeemer-topped Corcovado mountain and rounded Sugar Loaf peak, tourists can revel in panoramic views over the area's stunning natural scenery of mountains, islands and bays, while in Rio's historic centre, visitors can discover intriguing stories from the past. The city's sweeping beaches of Ipanema, Leblon and Copacabana provide the perfect spot for relaxing and soaking in the local atmosphere.
Overwhelming in its sheer size, Sao Paulo is the world's third biggest city and the largest in South America. But scratch the surface of this buzzing metropolis, and you can discover outstanding cuisine and explore some of the finest museums in Brazil. For years, the city's entertainment and nightlife have attracted some of the best performers in the world.
The former Brazilian capital overlooks the beautiful All Saint's Bay and is one of the country's most atmospheric cities. The delightful historic district of Pelourinho features impressive baroque churches and colourful colonial architecture, while its cobblestone streets are filled with spicy aromas, graceful monuments and the rhythmic sound of beating drums.
Brazil's main cultural and intellectual hub has three universities, a historical museum, numerous libraries, and sports stadiums. It is the capital of the state of Minas Gerais and the region's historic gold mining towns offer some of Brazil's finest colonial heritage. Ouro Preto, for instance, is home to elaborate baroque churches, while pretty Tiradentes is made up of cobbled streets and whitewashed houses. If you are visiting the region, the architectural masterpieces of Sao Joa del Rei, Congonhas and Mariana make them well worth a visit.
Situated in the heart of the country, Brazil's official capital is a spectacular feat of urban and architectural design, built in just four years on uninhabited land. The city's strikingly innovative style has won it Unesco world cultural heritage status. Brasilia is also an excellent stopover en route to the wildlife-rich Pantanal wetlands or the Amazon rainforest.
This tree-lined peaceful city is the major gateway to the northern Pantanal, Brazil's premier wildlife destination. Cox & Kings recommends 3- or 4-night stays in the area's comfortable lodges to spot capybaras, giant anteater, caimans, monkeys and a wealth of birds including colourful toucans and rare hyacinth macaws. Considered the geographic centre of South America, the flat-topped ridges, natural pools and waterfalls of Chapada dos Guimaraes are less than an hour's drive out of the city.
Manaus is a gateway for forays into the Amazon, the world's largest tropical rainforest, covering almost half of Brazil's territory and home to a spectacular biodiversity of flora and fauna. Not far from town, the merging of the Negro and Solimoes rivers to form the Amazon river offer another fascinating natural spectacle known as 'the meeting of the waters'. The city's opulent opera house, Teatro Amazonas, has sumptuous interiors and an incredible dome covered with thousands of tiles painted in the colours of the Brazilian flag.
Fortaleza, Natal and Recife
Brazil's vast northeast coast is fringed with thousands of stunning tropical beaches and islands. Powdery stretches of golden sand and warm ocean waters can be enjoyed in complete serenity or combined with fine dining, lively nightlife and a variety of excursions. The historic town of Olinda is only 6km outside of Recife and the natural pools of Porto de Galinhas provide a chance to swim with colourful fish. Natal is blessed with year-round sunshine and an abundance of sand dunes, while delightful fishing villages can be discovered to the north of Fortaleza.
Curitiba, in the state of Paraná, is a modern and prosperous city, well-known for its innovative and efficient public transport system. Stroll through the many parks and forests, explore the historic centre and visit the modernist steel and glass opera house. The Serra Verde train ride offers scenic vistas as it descends on a winding route through the verdant Atlantic rainforest to the coastal town of Morretes. It is also possible to combine Curitiba with a visit to Paraná's most famous attraction: the spectacular Iguacu Falls, just a little over an hour away by direct flight.
The state of Rio Grande do Sul is renowned for its distinctive blend of German, Italian, Azorean and Spanish heritage and gaucho (cowboy) traditions. Its cosmopolitan capital, Porto Alegre – known locally as 'Poá' – lies beside a lake and has a variety of cultural centres, museums, galleries and traditional churrascaria steakhouses for visitors to enjoy. Further afield, it is possible to explore wine country, mountain pine forests and canyons, or visit Bavarian-style towns where artisan chocolate and fine crystal glassware are produced.
