March Madness: "Miss Carr" premiere
Ah, I have such grand plans for this blog, so much to talk about, but oh so little time—my last post was over a year ago! Sorry!
The month of March is replete with vocal performances. Which makes me very happy, because I love working with and writing for singers. Next up is the March 19 world premiere of Miss Carr in Seven Scenes, a 25-minute song cycle/monodrama-of-sorts commissioned by the Canadian Art Song Project and written for mezzo Kristina Szabó and pianist Steven Philcox. Art song is very close to my heart—while at school in Cleveland I met many wonderful singers, got to write for many of them, and I have been singing all my life, since learning Petula Clark's "Downtown" off the radio when I was three.
25 years ago, at Half Price Books in Cleveland, I found a copy of Emily Carr's published diaries. She wrote of her challenges and struggles to find her unique voice and to make a career for herself as an artist. Her journey spoke to me, reflected my own journey as I started out on my professional path, and, really, reflected any artist's journey even today. Though most of us don't breed dogs to make ends meet, or have a pet monkey.
I'm grateful to the Canadian Art Song Project for giving me the opportunity to create this work, after it had rolled around in the back of my mind for a quarter century.
We workshopped the piece back in January (an amazing experience—there is a spot in the piece that I anticipated Krisztina would make me cry, and she did, so, job done). The next day I sat down with pianist (and CASP co-founder) Steven Philcox to talk about creating the work and my love for art song and singers. Have a listen, and if you are in Toronto March 19, please join us at Walter Hall at the University of Toronto's Faculty of Music.

And Colonel Woodburn said coldly to Lindau
"Lion and lamb act," said Fulkerson, not well knowing, after so much champagne, what words he was using.
No one noticed him, and Colonel Woodburn said coldly to Lindau, "You are talking paternalism, sir."
"And you are dalking feutalism!" retorted the old man.
The colonel did not reply. A silence ensued, which no one broke till Fulkerson said: "Well, now, look here. If either one of these millenniums was brought about, by force of arms, or otherwise, what would become of 'Every Other Week'? Who would want March for an editor? How would Beaton sell his pictures? Who would print Mr. Kendricks's little society verses and short stories? What would become of Conrad and his good works?" Those named grinned in support of Fulkerson's diversion, but Lindau and the colonel did not speak; Dryfoos looked down at his plate, frowning.
A waiter came round with cigars, and Fulkerson took one. "Ah," he said, as he bit off the end, and leaned over to the emblematic masterpiece, where the brandy was still feebly flickering, "I wonder if there's enough natural gas left to light my cigar." His effort put the flame out and knocked the derrick over; it broke in fragments on the table. Fulkerson cackled over the ruin: "I wonder if all Moffitt will look that way after labor and capital have fought it out together. I hope this ain't ominous of anything personal, Dryfoos?"
"I'll take the risk of it," said the old man, harshly.
He rose mechanically, and Fulkerson said to Frescobaldi's man, "You can bring us the coffee in the library."
The talk did not recover itself there. Landau would not sit down; he refused coffee, and dismissed himself with a haughty bow to the company; Colonel Woodburn shook hands elaborately all round, when he had smoked his cigar; the others followed him. It seemed to March that his own good-night from Dryfoos was dry and cold.
March met Fulkerson on the steps of the office next morning, when he arrived rather later than his wont. Fulkerson did not show any of the signs of suffering from the last night's pleasure which painted themselves in March's face. He flirted his hand gayly in the air, and said, "How's your poor head?" and broke into a knowing laugh. "You don't seem to have got up with the lark this morning. The old gentleman is in there with Conrad, as bright as a biscuit; he's beat you down. Well, we did have a good time, didn't we? And old Lindau and the colonel, didn't they have a good time? I don't suppose they ever had a chance before to give their theories quite so much air. Oh, my! how they did ride over us! I'm just going down to see Beaton about the cover of the Christmas number. I think we ought to try it in three or four colors, if we are going to observe the day at all." He was off before March could pull himself together to ask what Dryfoos wanted at the office at that hour of the morning; he always came in the afternoon on his way up-town.
The fact of his presence renewed the sinister misgivings with which March had parted from him the night before, but Fulkerson's cheerfulness seemed to gainsay them; afterward March did not know whether to attribute this mood to the slipperiness that he was aware of at times in Fulkerson, or to a cynical amusement he might have felt at leaving him alone to the old man, who mounted to his room shortly after March had reached it.
A sort of dumb anger showed itself in his face; his jaw was set so firmly that he did not seem able at once to open it. He asked, without the ceremonies of greeting, "What does that one-armed Dutchman do on this book?"

Why enterprise-class traditional NAS products will remain
January 7, 2013 Dan Lah	2 comments
I've commented before that "Unified Storage" as a differentiator is no longer the differentiator it once was, given the fact that virtually all major storage vendors are now offering a "Unified" product. Previously, only EMC and NetApp offered a true Unified storage solution. Now, IBM has SONAS built into the V7000, HP is building IBRIX into their products, HDS released the HUS platform that leverages BlueArc NAS, and Dell also is integrating Exanet into their products.
However, it's important to note that not all Unified storage products are the same. Just because a manufacturer can "check the box" on a spec sheet that they have NAS doesn't mean all NAS products work the same. On a related note, now that EMC has acquired Isilon, which many perceive to be a superior product to Celerra, the rumors are always going around about when will VNX File be replaced with Isilon code on the VNX series.
I'm here to tell you that:
EMC and NetApp are still best equipped to fulfill the needs of traditional enterprise NAS use cases compared to any other vendor.
I don't believe Isilon will replace VNX File (Celerra) anytime soon.
While Isilon, SONAS, IBRIX, etc are superior for scale-out use cases, that's not the case for traditional enterprise NAS requirements.
Why is this the case? First let me clarify, when I say traditional enterprise NAS requirements, I'm talking large enterprise, as in tens of thousands of users. For a smaller shop, these don't apply. Here are some sample requirements:
Support for hundreds of file systems and/or mountpoints (much different than the big-data use case people talk of today involving a single file system that scales to petabytes)
Large enterprises have dozens if not hundreds of legacy file servers. Wouldn't it be great to consolidate these or virtualize them behind some file gateway? Sure! Is it realistic in a huge environment with thousands of custom applications that have hard-coded UNC paths to these locations, immense user disruption and re-education, etc? Not really.
Robust NDMP support
Large enterprises may be using advanced features of NDMP such as volume-based backup and checkpoint/snapshot based NDMP backups. Do all scale-out NAS offering support these? I don't know to be honest but I'd be surprised.
Number of CIFS sessions
Handling 20,000 users logging in each morning, authenticating against AD, downloading user/group SIDs for each account, and handling drive map creations for each user that may be part of the login script is a unique requirement in its own right. It's very intensive, but not from the standpoint of "scale-out" processing intense. Being able to open all these CIFS user sessions, maintain them, and potentially fail them over is not what scale-out NAS was designed for.
Multiple CIFS servers
Same point as above under multiple file systems. It's not necessarily so simple for an organization to consolidate tens or hundreds of file servers down to one name.
Multi-protocol support
Scale-out NAS was not designed for corporations that have invested a lot in making their traditional NAS boxes work with advanced multi-protocol functionality, with complex mapping setup between Windows AD and Unix NIS/LDAP to allow users to access the same data from both sides with security remaining intact.
Most scale-out NAS boxes offer snapshots, but make sure they are Shadow-Copy client integrated, as most large organizations let their users/helpdesk perform their own file restores.
Advanced CIFS functions
Access Based Enumeration – hides shares from users who don't have ACL rights.
Branch Cache – increases performance at remote offices
Robust AD integration and multi-domain support (including legacy domains)
Migration from legacy file servers with lots of permission/SID issues.
If you're migrating a large file server that dates back to the stone age (NT) to a NAS, it most likely is going to have a lot of unresolvable SIDs hidden deep in its ACL's for one reason or another. This can be a complex migration to an EMC or NetApp box. I know from experience Celerra had multiple low-level params that could be tweaked as well as custom migration scripts all designed to handle issues that can occur when you start encountering these problem SIDs during the migration. A lot of knowledge has been gained here by EMC and NetApp over the past 10 years and built into their traditional NAS products. How are scale-out NAS products designed to handle these issues? I am hard-pressed to believe that they can handle it.
The reality is that EMC's Celerra codebase and NetApp's ONTAP were purpose-built NAS operating systems designed to deal with these traditional enterprise requirements. SONAS, IBRIX, BlueArc, Exanet, and Isilon were not. These scale-out products (which I evaluated many years ago at a former employer and even had the opportunity to watch SONAS be developed and productized) were designed for newer scale-out use cases, often involving High Performance Computing (HPC). In fact, HPC was the sole reason my former employer looked at all of these excluding Exanet. Many of these products use SAMBA to provide their CIFS support. Isilon was just recently switched to a more enterprise-class custom CIFS stack. SONAS definitely uses SAMBA because it was built upon clustered SAMBA. HPC has completely different requirements for NAS than traditional corporate file sharing, and so companies that built products focused on the HPC market were not concerned about meeting the needs of corporate file shares.
Now this is slowly changing, as we see more traditional enterprise features being built into the latest Isilon "Mavericks" code release, particularly around security. I'm sure the other vendors are rapidly making code modifications as well now that they've all picked the NAS technology that they will make their SAN's "unified" with. But it will take time to catch up to 10 years of complex Windows permission and domain integration development that Celerra/VNX and NetApp have as advantages on their side. From a quick search, it appears Isilon does not support MS Access Based Enumeration, so to think that EMC is going to dump Celerra/VNX code and plop in Isilon code on its Unified storage arrays is silly, when there are probably thousands of customers using this functionality.

A new true Unified storage contender in the market
October 13, 2011 Dan Lah	1 comment
Most folks have heard of Unified storage by now and are well aware of the basic capabilities, namely NAS and SAN in a single box. NetApp and EMC have been the primary players in this market for some time, and to date have been the only vendors to offer a true Unified solution in the enterprise arena. In using the term "true Unified", I'm looking at the technology and determining if it is leveraging a purpose-built storage OS to handle SAN and NAS data delivery to hosts. There are other vendors out there claiming they have Unified capabilities because it is a compelling feature for customers, but by my definition taking a SAN and throwing on a Windows Storage Server to do CIFS does not count as a true Unified solution. I'm less concerned about the semantics of whether or not there are truly two code bases in the box, one serving SAN and the other serving NAS, as long as they operate from a common storage pool and have a single-point of management.
I figured the next vendor with a true Unified solution would be Dell, as multiple signs have been pointing to them integrating some NAS technology they acquired into their existing SAN platforms (Compellent and Equalogic), but surprisingly, the announcement yesterday came from IBM. IBM took the V7000 array they released last year based on SVC technology and added Unified functionality to it by leveraging their SONAS product (Scale-out NAS). I consider this to be a pretty major announcement, as NetApp and EMC can no longer claim superiority as the only Unified storage vendors with native solutions. IBM could sell OEM'd NetApp arrays (N-Series) in the past if the situation warranted, and it will be interesting to see if this announcement is the beginning of the end for the IBM-NTAP OEM relationship.
In the case of the V7000, IBM has integrated the SONAS code into the solution and made one GUI to manage it. Because the V7000 runs SVC-based code and the NAS is handled by SONAS components, it does not appear to be a unified code-base like NetApp, but two code-bases tied together with a single GUI like the VNX. From a picture I saw on Tony Pearson's blog, they are including two IBM servers in the stack (called "File Modules" that are akin to datamovers or Filers) that run active-active sitting in front of the V7000 controllers.
I had some exposure to SONAS when I worked at a large pharma and saw its development first-hand for a project we undertook but never bought. IBM hired the guy who created SAMBA (Andrew Tridgell) to architect an active-active clustered SAMBA architecture to run on top of IBM's Global Parallel File System (GPFS). It was a very interesting system, and Andrew Tridgell still ranks as one of the smartest people I have ever met, but back in 2007-2008 it was just a little too new. Fast forward 3 years and I'm sure the system is much more robust and fully-baked, though I'm not 100% sold on using SAMBA for CIFS access in the enterprise.
Because SONAS/GPFS is a scale-out system, the NAS functionality in the V7000 does have an advantage over EMC and Netapp in that the same file system can be served out of the two File Modules simultaneously. However, it appears the V7000 may be limited to just two file modules from what I see, unlike a full SONAS/GPFS solution or something like Isilon.
Only time will tell if the V7000 Unified will be successful and IBM will keep development of the product a hot-priority. Some folks would point to the legacy DS boxes as an example of a technology that was good when it was first released, but then sat for years without any major updates while the technology continued to evolve. But at least for the immediate future, the V7000 is certainly worthy competition in the Unified space and an example of how competition is good for the industry overall, as it forces the big gorillas to keep on their toes and continue to find new ways to innovate.

One of my favorite talk shows of the 1970s was Dinah, an afternoon chat fest hosted by Dinah Shore. She had an amazing array of guests on over the years, performers you didn't see often on TV. This first clip from 1975 features David Bowie and Fonzie himself, Henry Winkler, along with Nancy Walker.
Next up, Andy Kaufman as Tony Clifton. Unfortunately the best portion of this taping was destroyed, the part where 'Tony' forces Dinah to sing with him even though she begs off due to a sore throat and, at the end of the segment, he dumps a bowl of eggs over her head.


What's That Clicking Sound in Your Denture?
Most of today's dentures are primarily made from acrylic resin. This is basically a high grade plastic, but it can make noise when it impacts another prosthesis. It can be hard to ignore the sound if your dentures are clicking into each other at inopportune times!
What's causing that to happen?
Some denture wearers actually develop the unconscious habit of playing with their dentures with their tongue. This causes a clicking sound that perhaps the denture wearer isn't aware of.
But if you notice and are annoyed by a clicking sound, then you probably aren't flipping your denture around with your tongue!
In either case, the best solution is to have your denture checked by a dentist and see what tweaks can be made for a more secure fit.
If you're still getting used to wearing dentures, it may take some practice for you to speak with confidence. Take your time learning a new speech pattern. Talk a little slower and more deliberately than usual. You may find the clicking lessens this way.
You may have had your denture for a couple years and are just now noticing the clicking sound. A denture adhesive will buy you a measure of security until you can see a dentist for an adjustment.
At your next dental checkup, ask your dentist for more tips on stopping the click.
Has your denture gotten a little loose, lately? You're probably checking out the oral care isle at the store for products that can help stabilize your bite. Which ones work best?
Most adhesives often come with claims of creating an air-tight seal with the gums and freshening the breath. It will depend on your oral anatomy as to whether or not this is the case.
What is an Adhesive Used For?
Adhesives are usually recommended for first-time denture wearers. An adhesive provides an element of security while getting used to wearing dentures.
Contrary to popular opinion, an adhesive should not be relied upon to correct a problem with denture fit. You may personally find that an adhesive makes your denture more comfortable in general, and that's perfectly fine. But don't ignore the signs – if your denture is not fitting properly, it will eventually need an adjustment or replacement. You can't ignore this by using an adhesive indefinitely or you could cause serious damage to your mouth.
A well-fitting and well-made denture shouldn't need the help of an adhesive. An adhesive might see you through an emergency, but if your denture needs an adjustment, then you shouldn't wait. Ask your dentist for help.
It's pretty common for folks to have a hard time getting a lower denture to stay in place. That's why it's so tempting to layer on the paste or powder.
As an alternative to this messy habit, many patients are looking to implant technology for anchoring their dentures into place. Ask your dentist what kind of denture and denture products are right for your health and lifestyle.
Denture Pastes or Glues sparingly applied to the dentures, stored in something that resembles a toothpaste tube.
Powders, that mix with your saliva.
Thin Liners, which are sheets that are moistened and then applied to the denture.
The product you choose is simply a matter of personal preference. While there are many options that promise a strong, all-day, secure fit, do you really need a denture adhesive?
Do You Need Adhesive or a Visit To Your Dentist?
If you're new to wearing dentures, the newness of your prosthetic smile may create unease until you get used to them and feel more confident. But don't jump to adhesive right away. In most cases, you just need a little time to adjust to the prosthesis.
Sometimes dentures are placed just after an extraction. As the area around the procedure heals, the gum may resorb creating a looser fit for the denture. Instead of opting for an adhesive, your dentist will need to adjust or re-line your prosthesis.
While denture adhesive can offer many benefits to give you a more confident smile, it should never be used to accommodate poor denture fit. A properly fitted denture, in most cases, shouldn't need adhesive to stay in place. If your dentures don't fit correctly, speak to your dentist about having them examined for fit or an adjustment.

Meet an African refugee on his way to becoming a Canadian
Asylum seeker left behind five teenaged children when he fled his country six months ago

Some day, James* says, he will share his story about leaving his teenaged children behind in East Africa to seek asylum in Canada.
When he's ready, he will provide details of how he ended up in Vancouver in November, how he was persecuted and how his refugee claim was accepted in March.
The Courier is using a pseudonym to protect James from repercussions that could come to his family. He has an emotional story to tell and normally breaks down in tears when talking about his journey.
But he held it together long enough Wednesday to deliver a speech to reporters, Mayor Gregor Robertson and representatives of agencies who helped him settle in his newly adopted country.
James kept his comments ambiguous about his journey, but specific to the plight of refugee claimants, with some 400 arriving in B.C. over the first three months of this year, with Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran and Mexico being the top source countries.
"You can imagine me as representing needy refugees from all over the world," he said from a lectern in a room at the Immigrant Services Society of B.C.'s Welcome Centre on Victoria Drive.
He went on to talk about the reality of a person touching down at Vancouver International Airport for the first time, with nothing but a small piece of luggage and no idea what was in store in the days ahead.
That person, he continued, may have fled their homeland because of torture, or war, or standing up for human rights, or being persecuted for their sexual orientation, or escaping a natural calamity.
That person's language may be a barrier to communicating with people in a new country and connecting with the culture. Imagine that same person feeling depressed, stressed and lost, with no money or job, he said.
"In fact that person is not just an imaginary human being, but me — myself — standing in front of you," he said, before stressing the importance of settlement agencies in helping refugee claimants adjust to a new life in Canada.
He was referring to the agencies represented in the room, including the Inland Refugee Society, Settlement Orientation Services, Vancouver Association for Survivors of Torture, Kinbrace Community Society and the Immigrant Services Society of B.C.
Reporters heard how the agencies have small budgets and minimal staff to respond to people such as James. Finding housing for claimants, connecting them with health care, providing language classes and preparing them for refugee hearings are some of the services they offer.
The mayor was there to announce $181,220 in funding for the agencies, which were grateful for the money but talked of the daily struggle of being overwhelmed by the number of claimants who need support.
Chris Friesen, director of settlement services of the Immigrant Services Society of B.C., made a plea the public to assist with offering housing or cash donations to ease the load on agencies, which are seeing an uptick in claimants.
"We're hoping that Vancouverites will continue to respond in creative ways to help us meet the most urgent needs of people like James, who arrived in November of 2016 without his family, without financial resources," Friesen said.
"The other challenge that needs to be highlighted is the fact that in this province we have not had income assistance rates increases in a decade. This also includes hardship allowance rates that refugee claimants receive, as well."
725 refugee claimants
Statistics released Wednesday show 725 people made refugee claims in B.C. in 2016, an increase from 459 in 205 and 490 in 2014. Friesen said about 80 per cent of claimants arrive in the province by walking across the Canada-U.S. border at Peace Arch Park.
Mario Ayala, executive director of the Inland Refugee Society, said the agency has an annual budget of $180,000 but gives services closer to $600,000. Ayala said housing is difficult to find for claimants at the best of times but more pronounced in a region of high-priced accommodation. The agency relies on churches, shelters and residents to offer essentially free temporary housing while claimants get settled.
"Can you imagine a person coming here without money, no references, no job and trying to find a place?" he said, noting the society found housing for 684 people in the last year, more than double the number of people housed three years ago.
In the first three months of the year, the group of agencies assisted 284 claimants from more than a dozen countries. Most of the agencies operate out of the Welcome Centre, which is a regional service hub that opened in June 2016. The building has 18 self-contained apartments (with shared laundry) that can house 130 people, a health clinic, a pre-school, a playground and a drop-in centre for young people.
For James, who implored the mayor to continue to raise concerns of refugees, he is focused on applying to become a permanent resident of Canada. In the meantime, he said, he will rely on the agencies and people who helped him with his physical and mental health.
"I am now a different person, I am now a transformed person but I am also still a needy person," he said. "I, who stands in front of you, represent thousands of lives who have been transformed from hopelessness to hopefulness."
He closed with a quote from Martin Luther King to show his gratitude to the agencies and a reminder of how people who can help, should help.
"The time is always right to do the right thing."

Trump Downplayed COVID at His Town Hall. No Wonder He's Losing Older Voters.
President Trump gestures as he speaks during an NBC News town hall event at the Perez Art Museum in Miami, Florida, on October 15, 2020.

David Renton,
When you watch Donald Trump — for example, during last night's town hall — it is easy to think that all you are getting is a stream of consciousness: in Freudian terms, the id of Trump's psyche. But a better way to understand him is to think of Trump's avarice, as well as his blatantly racist rhetoric, as being in tension with some (though certainly not all) of his advisers. The Republican Party is clearly trying to keep Trump within the bounds of conventional right-wing respectability, just as hard as he constantly escapes.
So, for example, after Charlottesville in 2017, Trump didn't give just one speech, he gave several. In the first, he blamed violence "on many sides." In a second, written by his advisers, he called white supremacists "repugnant." A third was again scripted. It was only after it, and in response to press questions that Trump departed from his advisers' scripts to say, "Not all of those people were neo-Nazis" and that there were "very fine people on both sides."
It is possible to listen carefully to Trump's speeches and to infer from them what some of his advisers are likely telling him — and how far he is listening to them. Going into Thursday's town hall event, it's likely that Trump was told to woo older voters — and to tone down the outrageous statements.
Trump's election victory in 2016 was one of a series of similar breakthroughs: the votes for Brexit in Britain, the support for the Front National in France. What each had in common was a switch by older voters to the right. In the 2016 election; Hillary Clinton won more votes among voters aged 18-29 and 30-49 than Trump (58-28 percent and 51-40 percent) but lost among voters aged 50-64 (45-51 percent) and aged over 65 (44-53 percent).
The spread of COVID-19 poses a particular problem to Trump and indeed to every right-wing populist government. Some such governments have taken the approach of denying the reality of the pandemic. That has indeed been the picture in the U.S., in Brazil and (to some extent) in Britain — in consequence, all three governments are in difficulty. There are, however, a number of right-wing governments which have taken the opposite approach and emphasized the need to lock down and protect elderly voters. Where that has happened (in India, Hungary and elsewhere), right-populist governments look more secure in power than they did six months ago.
Meanwhile, in the U.S., among voters aged 50-65, 42 percent now strongly disapprove of Trump's handling of COVID. Among voters over 65 years old, that proportion rises to a staggering 51 percent. Older voters are still more likely to vote for him, because of their greater support for right-wing politics. But the only age group that still gives him a plurality is the over-65s, and even there, because of his mishandling of the pandemic, his support is shrinking.
A candidate can win an election with majority support of voters over 50 years old. But someone who wins only among voters age 65 and up is likely to lose the popular vote (assuming it is fairly counted) by a landslide. Trump's advisers can see, just as clearly as everyone else, how the numbers are turning against him.
The Republican Party is clearly trying to keep Trump within the bounds of conventional right-wing respectability, just as hard as he constantly escapes.
One could see these incompatible pressures — the desire to play down the risk posed by the pandemic, while still trying to satisfy older voters — playing out at Trump's event last night.
When asked to talk about COVID, Trump did not deny the reality of the disease, but he did misrepresent its current level of threat. His chosen soundbites, "we're rounding the corner" and "we did the right thing," acknowledged the reality of the disease — but they made it seem as if his government had taken the correct actions in response. Asked if he was seeking "herd immunity," a plan that would involve deliberately speeding up the impact of the disease, Trump maintained that this wasn't his plan. Yet he continued demanding that the economy stay open. ("The cure cannot be worse than the disease itself," he said.) That approach has been destructive and will continue to cause unnecessary deaths and suffering — but this was Trump playing the game of keeping the real cruelty hidden behind abstractions and ideology. He was admitting the reality of COVID and not denying that protective measures are needed — "I say wear the mask, I'm fine with it," he told his questioner CNN's Savannah Guthrie — while simultaneously trying to justify his record in relation to the disease.
Someone who wins only among voters age 65 and up is likely to lose the popular vote (assuming it is fairly counted) by a landslide.
This takes us to the second way in which COVID is shaping the election. In the two weeks since the first presidential debate, Trump has been diagnosed with COVID-19, hospitalized and recovered. His deficit in the polls has widened from 7 percent to 10 percent. His advisers, of course, are trying to mitigate the damage.
When Trump was filmed in hospital, looking pale and out of breath, he became the "ill Duce," not the invincible authoritarian of his imagination but a vulnerable man. Yet it's not simply the fact that he contracted COVID that accounts for his drop in the polls. Trump has been out of hospital for 10 days and the poll gap has continued to widen. This week, Trump has played up his survival from coronavirus, saying he "felt like Superman" and was now "immune to the disease," disregarding the hundreds of thousands of (disproportionately older) people who've died of the illness across the country.
During his Town Hall meeting, Trump tried to present himself as a moderate figure, a "normal president." Yet we are talking about Trump here, so there were no apologies, no moments of recognition. Instead, we saw the familiar peevish irritability, the interruptions. We saw all the old Trump tricks, trying to deflect blame on to "antifa."
Asked to justify the numerous conspiracy theories that he has amplified, Trump seemed to try to stick largely to handlers' orders. Asked if he really believed that military figures had given him COVID, Trump answered "No. I don't where it came from."
COVID-19 is dangerous to Trump because it poses the greatest risk to the very age demographic he relies on most.
Yet quizzed about his repeated support for the QAnon conspiracy community, Trump threw his wildest supporters a piece of red meat, saying, "I do know they are very much against pedophilia," though he tried to insist he knew nothing about them. Asked about the conspiracy theories he has been retweeting, in which Biden is supposed to have had a team of SEALs murdered in order to cover up the supposedly faked murder of Osama bin Laden, Trump fell back on his version of the line that retweets are not endorsements, saying: "That was a retweet. That was an opinion of somebody."
Putting this town hall in its proper context, we grasp how Trump's position has weakened considerably.
COVID-19 is dangerous to Trump because it poses the greatest risk to the very age demographic he relies on most. Trump is now asking people in this demographic to support policies that make their own deaths more likely, and this idea is causing unease among growing numbers of them. It is the moment at which reality risks intruding into Trump's fantasies.
With an enormous effort of will, Trump has been able to hold together much of his coalition up until this point — but as the election nears, his support is shrinking. His persistent attempts to downplay COVID-19 may well cost him older voters — but as we learned in 2016, only time will tell.

Ahmadinejad attacks the Tehran book fair
by Dariush Mirzai
Forces linked to the President of the Republic aim to limit the country's most important cultural festival, which was a traditional point of contact with the international community. The grip of state censorship tightens.
Teheran (AsiaNews) – The isolation strategy being imposed by forces al lied to President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad are targeting the Tehran International Book Fair. It is Iran's most important cultural event and traditionally offers opportunities for contact among young people and the wider international community. It is also the most important festival in its field in the entire Middle East and Asia.
The twentieth edition, due to take place from May 2nd through to 11th, is under attack from Ahmadinejad's government: to maintain the "Islamic" purity of Iranian culture, censorship is no longer sufficient now international ties must also be limited! This is why the Ministry for culture and Islamic orientation has decided to split the fair in two, one site for the Iranian publishers, (the construction site of the mega-Mosque, in the process of being built) a separate site for foreign publishers (on the original site). The official reason for the decisions ecological: the need to limit the flow of traffic linked to the exposition, which draws millions of visitors. In reality, however the decision seems to be primarily aimed at controlling who visits the international fair and to make contacts between Iranian authors and foreign publishers more difficult.
In attempts to further discourage foreign visitors, entry fees have been drastically increased for them (and only for them) coupled with this the organisation is more chaotic and unpredictable than in previous years. "Enough!" is the reaction of many foreigners – a logical and understandable reaction; the reaction Ahmadinejad's team was aiming for.
"Enough", because Iran is already one of the worst countries in the world for breaking copyright laws, because it's policy of censorship slows down translations, more often betraying the original text (with absurd modifications) if it doesn't prohibit their publication entirely. Everything perceived to go against "moral order", "Islamic values", the interests of the "Islamic Republic of Iran" (such as writing the Arab-Persian Gulf) and anything which encourages "animosity, racism, Zionism, superstition" is banned. But the west is not the only target: just a few days ago, 16 books from Egypt, Jordan and Lebanon were forbidden by Iranian authorities: they will not be allowed to be presented in the International section of the Fair.
The cultural isolation of Iran, a young and traditionally open to the wider world, is on the increase. And not only due to UN sanctions. Protests such as those of the international publishers and more prudent Iranian demonstrations do not make a great impression on the Islamic ideologies of those who are in power in the land of Avicenna, Saadi and Hafez.
Beside the Koran, the cult of the so called "martyrs" and the glorification of nuclear ambitions have become the "cultural" priorities in Iran. Leaving many young people with few alternatives: video-clips and feuilleton, often debilitating, broadcast via satellite in Farsi from Los Angeles.

DoorDash Sets IPO Price Range of $75 to $85 a Share
Eric J. Savitz
A DoorDash Inc. delivery bag sits on the floor at Chef Geoff's restaurant in Washington, D.C.
Andrew Harrer/Bloomberg
DoorDash has set an expected price range of $75 to $85 a share for its initial public offering, in which it plans to sell 33 million shares, raising $2.8 billion in fresh capital at the top of the target range.
At $85 a share, the food delivery company would have a valuation of about $27 billion, based on the 317.7 million shares to be outstanding after the offering.
But note that on a fully diluted basis, including various options and restricted stock units, the DoorDash share count grows by about another 108 million shares, increasing the valuation at the top of the expected range to well over $35 billion.
DoorDash will list on the New York Stock Exchange and trade under the ticker DASH. Goldman Sachs and J.P. Morgan are leading the underwriting group for the deal.
The IPO should be a big win for the SoftBank (SFTBY) Vision Fund, which has invested $2 billion in the company and owns a 22% stake in the company's Class A shares on a post-offering basis—a stake worth $5.3 billion. Sequoia Capital will own just over 18%, and Greenview Investment, an arm of the Singapore state investment fund GIC, owns about 9% on a post-offering basis.
As previously disclosed, DoorDash had 2019 revenue of $885 million, up 204% from the prior year. For the nine months through September 30, revenue was $1.9 billion, up 226%, with the pandemic adding fuel to the company's growth. The company had a loss for the nine months of $149 million, narrowing from $534 million in the year-earlier period.
For the nine-month period, DoorDash posted a profit on an adjusted Ebitda (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) basis of $95 million. Note that both Uber Technologies (UBER) and Lyft (LYFT) have yet to reach adjusted Ebitda break-even — both expect to get there in 2021.
DoorDash had a GAAP profit of $23 million in the second quarter, but slipped back to a $43 million loss in the third quarter. The company had adjusted Ebitda profits of $79 million in the second quarter and $86 million in the third quarter.
For the nine month period, DoorDash had 543 million total orders, tripling from the year earlier period. Gross orders were $16.5 billion, also about triple the same period in 2019. The company reported a contribution margin—profit after covering variable costs—of $433 million in the same period, versus a loss of $190 million a year earlier.
In the September quarter, the company had 236 million orders, up from 204 million in the second quarter, more than triple the 70 million in the year ago quarter, and more than double the 103 million orders in the year's first quarter. Gross orders in the quarter were $7.3 billion, up from $6.2 million in the second quarter and $2.1 million a year earlier.

Off of the beaten track and away from the hustle and bustle; our private and family owned country estate is located in the most picturesque Somerset countryside, 10 miles from the historic city of Bath.
As well as offering a pro-standard all-year-round 18 hole golf course, Orchardleigh boasts a stunning 19th century stately home, conferencing and entertaining facilities for up to 400 guests, a private air strip and luxurious accommodation for up to 172 guests.
Having changed family ownership only twice in over 800 years, Orchardleigh maintains an impalpable English charm. We are incredibly proud to offer the finest dining, facilities and service in the area; and promise a friendly and warm welcome to all visitors.
The History of Orchardleigh
Orchardleigh House was built in 1856 by William Duckworth, the Estate previously owned by the Champneys, whose family had owned the Estate since the Norman Conquest.
Orchardleigh's indefinable English charm is testimony to the Estate changing family ownership only twice in 800 years. Veiled in a tranquil bowl of parklands and lakes, its horizon a sweeping backdrop of rolling Somerset hills, the Poet Laureate Sir Henry Newbolt, (1863-1938) was inspired to write his finest works from his love of Orchardleigh it´s Island Church.
The house is an example of the briefly fashionable combination of Elizabethan and French styles, often described as "nouveau-riche." This style, which was popular in the mid-century, English Style, seen at Cragside. It has been ignored in many histories of the Victorian period and yet it was extremely popular, and deserves greater appreciation and understanding.
Duckworth was clearly building a family home, whose character was partly conditioned by the heir being acurate. However, corridors were stencilled by Crace and Morants supplied such elements as the mirror and curtain pelmets for the drawing room. There is also a stable block and an octagonal kitchen garden with glasshouses some distance from the house. A woodland walk led from the house to the formal entrance into the kitchen garden. After Wyatt's work on the estate was completed, Devey was employed to build various cottages on the estate and park farm.
Since the last Duckworth sold the Estate in 1986, Orchardleigh has entered a new era. The Vincent Family, who had been farming near Hungeford, succeeded possession of the Estate in 2002. Christopher Vincent and his Daughter are descended from an old Frome family so have come back to their roots. The will of a Henry Vincent, of Frome, was proved as early as 1487. The Vincent's have fitted easily into the pattern of local life and proved firm friends to our local churches and to the community at large. We are extremely fortunate that Orchardleigh has fallen into the hands of this generous, kindly and public spirited family.
The Vincent family have restored the big house which although basically sound had become derelict after 15 years of disuse. It is now a popular venue for Weddings and receptions, incorporating the beautiful Island Church. This after a careful restoration which has emphasized continuity with the past. The gardens, too, are being restored and there has been much interest in the early 19th century greenhouses in the Octagon Garden and the Victorian Pulhamite rockwork garden constructed of artificial stone by James Pulman and Son. The determination of the family to protect the beauties of their environment and develop in sympathy with it is encouraging.
After a period of the doldrums the future of Orchardleigh House seems set fair. Not only has it been saved from ruin but it has also been given a new lease of useful life. The motto 'non nobis solum' (not only for ourselves) is carved under the Oriel window. How true.

Grantees of offices, commissions and pardons (1317-1321)
The Patent Rolls are the Chancery enrolments of royal letters patent. Those for the 11th to the 14th years of the reign of king Edward II (8 July 1317 to 7 July 1321) were edited for the Public Record Office by G. F. Handcock, and published in 1903. The main contents are royal commissions and grants; ratifications of ecclesiastical estates; writs of aid to royal servants and purveyors; and pardons. Most extensive are the commissions of oyer and terminer to justices to investigate complaints about specific crimes and wrongs in particular counties.

Inhabitants of Garstang in Lancashire (1332)
The Lancashire Lay Subsidy roll of the 6th year of king Edward III lists lay inhabitants of each township of the shire, with the amount of tax payable by each. The roll was edited by John Paul Rylands, and published in 1896.
Kent Charters (1350-1359)
A large accumulation of documents preserved in the Bodleian Library, Oxford, formerly constituted the antiquarian collections of Anthony a Wood, Roger Dodsworth, Ralph Thoresby, Thomas Martin of Palgrave, Thomas Tanner bishop of St Asaph, Dr Richard Rawlinson, Richard Furney archdeacon of Surrey, and Richard Gough. A calendar of these was prepared by William H. Turner and published in 1878 under the title 'Calendar of Charters and Rolls preserved in the Bodleian Library'. The word 'charters' is here used in a very general sense, including virtually any manuscript or copy of a manuscript, but the bulk of the contents consists of mediaeval deeds of conveyance. Turner's calendar deals with each briefly, naming the principal parties and the nature of the deed, but hardly ever lists the witnesses. Many of these charters were undated (dating of deeds did not become standard until around 1350) or so damaged or defective ('mutilated' is Turner's usual description) as no longer to display a legible date. However, he contrived, from the style of the script and/or the nature of the contents, to estimate dates in such cases. The sample scan is from the start of the Bedfordshire list.
Fine Rolls (1356-1368)
The close rolls of the 30th to 42nd years of the reign of king Edward III record part of the government administration in England, with orders sent out day by day to individual officers, and commitment of particular responsibilities and duties. There is also some material relating to Wales, Scotland, Ireland and the English possessions in France.

Letter Book G of the City of London contains enrolments of recognizances between inhabitants, particularly citizens, for sums of money lent or due; grants of pieces of land or property; and various records relating to the city administration.
London, Essex and Hertfordshire clerks, clerics, monks and clergy (1361-1374)
Ordinations to first tonsure, acolytes, subdeacons, deacons and priests, from the register of bishop Simon de Sudbury of London. London diocese covered Middlesex, Essex and part of Hertfordshire; the ordinations also attracted many persons from distant dioceses bearing letters dimissory from their ordinaries, and these are duly noted in the text. Many of these clerks would not go on to obtain benefices and remain celibate. The lists of subdeacons, deacons and priests state the clerks' respective titles, i. e., give the names of the person or religious house undertaking to support them. Monks and friars ('religious') are listed separately, and the lists of subdeacons, deacons and priests are also separated into beneficed and not beneficed (or 'not promoted'). The acolyte lists are unusual in giving a parish or diocese of origin.
Letter Book H of the City of London contains enrolments of recognizances between inhabitants, particularly citizens, for sums of money lent or due; grants of pieces of land or property; and various records relating to the city administration.
Close Rolls (1429-1435)
The close rolls of the 8th to 13th years of the reign of king Henry VI record the main artery of government administration in England, the orders sent out day by day to individual officers, especially sheriffs of shires: they are an exceptionally rich source for so early a period. There is also some material relating to Wales, Scotland, Ireland and the English possessions in France. Also included is the Exchange Roll of 1424 to 1434, of licences to transmit sums of money out of the realm.
The close rolls of the 20th to 25th years of the reign of king Henry VI record the main artery of government administration in England, the orders sent out day by day to individual officers, especially sheriffs of shires: they are an exceptionally rich source for so early a period. There is also some material relating to Wales, Scotland, Ireland and the English possessions in France.
Landowners and tenants in Cumberland (1345-1485)
Inquisitions ad quod damnum were held by the appropriate sheriff or escheator (or other officer in whose bailiwick the matter in question might lie) to investigate cases in which the royal or public interest might be damaged by proposed alienation or settlement of land (especially alienation to religious uses, into mortmain). The key findings from these inquisitions were as to the tenure of the land and the service due from it; its yearly value; the lands remaining to the grantor, and whether they sufficed to discharge all duties and customs due from him; and whether he can still be put upon juries, assizes and recognitions, so that the country be not burdened by his withdrawal from them. Generally speaking, this process had the makings of a system of licensing such alienations, and raising money in proportion to the valuations. Equally, there are many items that deal with subjects such as the closing of public roads, the felling or inclosing of woods, or the proposed grant of liberties or immunities. A calendar of these inquisitions from the 19th year of the reign of king Edward III to the 2nd year of Richard III was prepared by the Public Record Office and published in 1906. We have now indexed this calendar by surname and county. Most of the individuals appearing in the calendar are either pious individuals seeking to make grants to religious bodies for the sake of their souls; or landowners securing the disposition and settling of their real estate. But some other names do appear - tenants, trustees, chaplains and clerks.

Luke Bryan Has Apologized to Waylon Jennings' Family Over Outlaw Comments, Shooter Reveals
Sterling Whitaker
Sterling Whitaker Published: July 14, 2015

In the midst of an enormous controversy over some comments he recently made about outlaw country, Luke Bryan has offered an apology to the widow and son of Waylon Jennings.
The fuss kicked off when Bryan said in an interview, "I'm not an outlaw country singer," adding, "I don't do cocaine and run around. So I'm not going to sing outlaw country."
He also said, "I think that people who want Merle, Willie and Waylon just need to buy Merle, Willie and Waylon."
Those comments were met with widespread disapproval from many fans of outlaw country and specifically Jennings, who admittedly struggled with cocaine addiction for years. Kathy Pinkerman — who is married to Jennings' son Buddy — posted a heated online rant directed at Bryan, saying in part, "You are a platinum, disrespecting, no singing, whining, grasping for media attention, a--hole."
But Jennings' widow, Jessi Colter, and his son Shooter Jennings feel very differently about the situation, and Bryan.
"Luke Bryan called my mom today to clarify that he would never disrespect my dad or me or any of us," Shooter tells the Los Angeles Times. "He also asked for Buddy's number to call Kathy. Whether or not he does, that takes a lot of guts. I misfired and said some things in the past about people, namely John Mayer. And I didn't have the guts to apologize. So, that being said, that kinda won me over."
Jennings says he appreciated Pinkerman's defense of the family legacy, but adds, "While I support my family obviously, personally the whole thing didn't make a difference to me. I've had my fair share of words being twisted and articles being sliced and diced. So I figured it was that ... My point is it's all flush in my book. He said some [stuff] and because of the internet it came back on him. But he went above and beyond and manned up and apologized. In the long run I believe his image has improved."

Abstract This investigation was carried out to reveal the impact of solar radiation on wind flow structure and pollutant dispersion in an urban street canyon of aspect ratio of one using the computational fluid dynamic (CFD) technique. The simulation results (velocity and concentration data) show that heating from building wall surfaces and ground lead to strong buoyancy forces as the air is heated by the wall surface when receiving direct solar radiation. This thermally induced buoyancy plays a significant role in determining flow fields within street canyon. When the sun shines on the leeward side of the building and the ground, the airflow structure and pollutant dispersion patterns are similar to that without solar radiation, the buoyancy flux adds to the upward advection flux along the wall strengthening the original vortex. When the windward wall is warmer than the air, an upward buoyancy flux opposes the downward advection flux along the wall, and divides the flow structure into two counter-rotating vortices indicating a clockwise top vortex and a reverse lower vortex within the canyon. Further, the impact of various temperature differences on the windward heating and different velocities for inlet velocity has been examined. The relative influence of the thermal effect can be estimated by bulk Richardson number (R(b)).

Martin Luther jr. in his letter, 'Letter from Birmingham Jail' is a good example of persuasive writing; he wrote this letter when he was in jail to counter what the clergymen had written in the newspaper about their protest. In order to smoothly pass his information across, he employed different types of language and words. He also used different techniques to put across his argument. First, he uses personal experience; Martin Luther describes horrific events that were experienced during the peaceful protests. In his letter, he says 'Like so many experiences of the past we were confronted with blasted hopes, and the dark shadow of a deep disappointment settled upon u' this statement encourage pity, understanding and sympathy simply due to the assumptions that the audience in their own experience had faced broken hopes.
Biblical illusion is another style that Martin Luther Jr. used to capture his audience; he compared himself with characters in the bible. He discussed the story of Meshach, Shadrach, and Abednego who refused to bow down to the gods even if they were threatened to be killed. He explains about the danger they were facing with other Christians during their time because of their Christianity. He also gives the story of Paul the Apostle who left his village home and carried the good news to the cities and every part of the Graeco-Roman world. He says that he is obliged to take freedom Gospel to the world beyond his home town, by this comparison; the audiences feel the injustice done to them.

He also uses Jesus in the bible to address the issue of condemnation due to their minority, 'Isn't this like condemning Jesus because His unique God-Consciousness and never-ceasing devotion to His will precipitated the evil act of crucifixion?' In his statement, he is giving a comparison of his cause with that of Jesus. He also says that three extremist who were crucified in Calvary were not similar, Jesus was crucified as an extremist for love, goodness, and truth and this made him superior. This biblical illusion which he used made him to vividly compare the beliefs of the people who were well known to be devoted to truth and light.
Martin also used imagery in his letter, the use of imagery portrays sorrows of injustice and at the same time anger about the evil things which were committed, and this made the audience to be more open to the letter. The choice of words in this letter was of great effectiveness. Martin used words such as 'at will, kill with impunity, at whim' this evokes empathy and sympathy.
Custom essay writing service bestwritingservice.com
Another very effective style that Luther use is Counter-Argument, he first identifies the claims of the clergymen, 'You express a great deal of anxiety over our willingness to break laws' this was a statement from the clergy men, using this claim, Martin was in a position to discuss the types of laws, the 'unjust and just' he particularly lead the audience on his rationalization by categorizing these laws and giving the reasons and situations when they can be broken. By using particular rhetoric strategies, Martin effectively disprove the argument of the clergy.

I am lucky enough to be involved with Clearspring's #12daysofmiso campaign. I am a huge fan of Clearspring's products and I love their asian influence and unusual product range. Luckily more of these are becoming available in Finland and for any others, I always leave room in my suitcase for when I am back in the UK. I have used white miso as a sticky glaze for roasted vegetables, but decided to try it out in a dark chocolate cake. The miso adds an extra richness to this simple cake and a subtle saltiness. It is amazingly moist, rich and chocolatey. I have finished it off with a peanut butter drizzle and an almond crumb. To be honest this is one of the best vegan chocolate cakes I have made.
Thanks again to Clearspring for asking me to get involved and I will be bringing you another sweet miso recipe soon.
Mix all your dry ingredients in a large bowl. Similarly mix all the wet ingredients in a separate bowl. Quickly pour and mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, until you have a smooth batter.
If you want to make the peanut butter drizzle, simply thin down a few tablespoons of sugar free peanut butter with some coconut milk and drizzle over the cake.
What an incredible decoration of this cake, looks fantastic!
Thank you! This has to be one of my favourite ever vegan cakes!!

Parducci 2014 True Grit Petite Sirah Reserve
After 50 harvests, Parducci has earned its reputation for making top-tier Petite Sirah. In the 1960s, they were one of the first in California to bottle the grape as a single-varietal wine. All the more impressive since the grape Petite Sirah was only identified as a single varietal via DNA in 1997: it's actually the French grape Durif.
About Petit Sirah
Petite Sirah is a wildly drunk wine and also widely misunderstood. This grape is actually Durif, one of the first vines planted in Northern California. Now a rare grape in its native France, it was a sure winner back in the 19th Century. The wines it creates are surprisingly modern in that big boozy way when you don't really want to know what you are waking up to tomorrow.
It's also the wine that nourished a generation of Northern California gold miners and, before that, a generation of hardscrabble farmers in Southern France. It's the wine of American heritage. It's the wine that my great-great uncle William Sherman planted in Sonoma. It's the California wine that predated Cabernet Sauvignon by a century. That alone should give it pride of place.
Let's talk about this specific bottle, a big bruiser of a Petite Sirah that doesn't know when to quit. So big rich, and dumb it should be a contestant on The Bachelorette. Despite its low price, it is a full-bodied luxury wine with dense notes of luxurious oak. Flavors of sweet vanilla and candied plums balance out the black pepper. By the midpalate, the wine has turned into a chocolate lava abyss. The finish keeps pumping its unctuous fruit into overtime. It's a delicious but exhausting wine.
Parducci's Petite Sirahs
I've always been impressed with Parducci's Petite Sirahs. They are careful to keep a fresh acidity in the mix to balance out the grape's native boozy quality. I've tasted some bottles of Parducci dating back to the '80s. Most of them were still brilliant.
