Kathryn Haskins worked around the world in some of the industry's most eclectic properties before heading home to take over the family hotel in the stunning Dorset town of Lyme Regis. What inspiration did she bring from city boutiques in Covent Garden and luxury safari lodges in Africa? Rob Corder headed to the seaside to find out.
Kathryn Haskins didn't know that her life's work was being shaped by the family holidays she enjoyed in Lyme Regis as a child, but her parents loved the West Dorset town so much that 35 years ago they bought its landmark hotel. In 2006, Haskins acquired the family firm, the Alexandra Hotel and Restaurant, and has been polishing this jewel in the town's tourism crown ever since.
Lyme Regis is in many ways a classic British seaside town, but its tourism and retail industries have suffered less than many of its rivals thanks to its rich history, and the boost of a multi-million pound restoration of its seafront by the local council around eight years ago.
"The town is heavily dependent on tourism, but it is not totally asleep out of season. It has a vibrant high street all year with great independent shops. Woolworths closed down, but its boutique shops have done really well," Haskins says as she sings the praises of the seafront redevelopment, the sandy beach and the surrounding countryside.
The Alexandra Hotel and Restaurant is a 24 bedroom property with an additional two self-catering apartments. Haskins describes it as one of the finest boutique hotels in Dorset, although she seems slightly uncomfortable with the boutique hotel tag as she expands on her philosophy for the business. "The term boutique can be over-used," she says. "But hoteliers have to use it because it is seen as a positive description by people searching for accommodation."
Haskins knows better than most how far the boutique description has to stretch in today's hospitality market. Her view is heavily influenced by three key phases of her life. She grew up living in the family-owned hotel, but was reluctant at first to stay in Dorset.
Instead she broadened her horizons, at one point working at a resort hotel in the British Virgin Islands; later working as a project coordinator for the opening of the Covent Garden Hotel for Firmdale Hotels, where she viewed Kit Kemp as a mentor. "Kit Kemp and Firmdale really kicked off the whole boutique hotel concept in terms of design and individual service," Haskins recalls.
However, the Firmdale business is firmly rooted in luxury urban hotels, and it wasn't until Haskins moved to &Beyond (formerly called Beyond Africa), which runs some of the world's most luxurious safari lodges, that she began to understand how Firmdale's boutique hospitality concept could apply outside the great cities of the world.
"They really showed me what cutting edge hospitality and design is all about. Everything is done every day for every guest. Every day is a chance to improve things for the guests," she describes.
This constant striving for perfection is the guiding philosophy for Alexandra Hotel. "We like to bring a very individual style to our guests. We are not corporate, we are not city chic, we draw inspiration from our seaside location and work in harmony with it on the design of the hotel and how we treat our guests," Haskins explains.
"The views from the hotel are spectacular, so we don't over-design the hotel and compete with those views. We have such a beautiful coastline that we just want our guests to see it and enjoy it," she adds. The guest rooms are designed to make customers feel they are walking into a space that feels like home, but better. "We don't want to be too formal or too professional like some city hotels," Haskins says.
The Alexandra Hotel creates an air of calm, but Haskins's life is anything but. As with all independently owned hotels, running the property is a 24×7 challenge, and on top of this, she has three young children demanding her time. The family moved off-site six months ago as part of a promise to herself to create a better work/life balance, she revealed to Boutique Hotelier.
"I am a single mother with children aged seven, ten and fourteen. Running the hotel and raising the family is a juggling act, you never switch off, but my aim is to concentrate on the children right now," she adds.
When the time is right, Haskins hopes to expand the Alexandra with the addition of a spa, and will also consider acquiring an additional hotel.
"The Alexandra is doing really well. We are certainly able to expand and take on other properties. The banks are certainly keen to work with me to expand," she explains. "A friend of mine sent me a picture of a hotel in Cornwall that she said had my name on it. I had to stop myself jumping straight into the car to take a look at it," she jokes.
An additional hotel will probably not be too many years in the future for this hospitality entrepreneur who cannot imagine working any other way.
"It is in my blood. I tried a 9-5 job once, but it was too quiet. I couldn't do it. This is a fantastic industry full of amazing people with the ability to travel to amazing places for free. It is like a never-ending gap year," she ends.

Jared Haibon and Ashley Iaconetti are one of Bachelor Nation's most tried and true couples. Their relationship has been through the ringer—aka two seasons of Bachelor in Paradise and many, many tears—but if there's anyone who knows the power of Bachelor love, it's them.
Kaitlyn Bristowe and Shawn Booth were another one of those power duos, but on Friday, the the couple announced they were breaking up after three years together. "This difficult decision comes after thoughtful, respectful consideration. Even though we are parting as a couple, we're very much committed to remaining friends," they said in a statement to People. "We have both evolved as people, which is taking us in different directions, but with the hope that we will continue to support each other in new ways."
One day before they announced their split, E! News reported exclusively that the two of them were having some "major issues" in their relationship. One source told E! News, "It's been a rough couple of months for them and they've been trying to figure out their balance, but it just isn't working."

About us
Sedex is a global membership organisation dedicated to driving improvements in ethical and responsible business practices in global supply chains.
Our collaborative approach helps buyers and suppliers to share and exchange data, helping to better manage social and environmental risks within their supply chain, and positively impact responsible sourcing. You can read our corporate brochure here.
Sedex provides a range of tools, services, guidance and training to help companies map and manage risks in their supply chain. We have over 60,000 member companies in over 180 countries. We work across 35 industry sectors, including food, agriculture, financial services, apparel, packaging and chemicals. We have offices in London, Gurugram, Santiago de Chile, Shanghai, Sydney and Tokyo.
One of the biggest challenges facing companies is managing risks that come with the multi-tiered complexity of their supply chain. Mapping the supply chain and multiple suppliers through each tier makes it difficult for companies to be aware of the risks affecting their business. Using Sedex tools and services can help companies make informed decisions and improve their business performance across labour rights, health and safety, the environment and business ethics.
Sedex has 15 years of expertise operating in responsible sourcing and works with some of the world's most recognisable brands and standard setting organisations, such as the United Nations and Ethical Trade Initiative. We believe that working with the right information and technologies, business can shape the future of global trade to have an increasingly positive impact worldwide.
Sedex Advance
Sedex Advance is one of the largest collaborative platforms in the world for buyers, suppliers and auditors to store, share and report on information quickly and easily.
For buyers, we make it simpler to understand how supply chains are performing, and to identify and act on opportunities for improvement.
For suppliers, we make it easy to share information with multiple buyers in an agreed format. This frees up time spent on unnecessary duplication.
SMETA & the SSF
SMETA is one of the most widely used social audit procedures in the world. It provides a globally-recognised way to assess responsible supply chain activities, including labour rights, health & safety, the environment and business ethics.
We convene the Sedex Stakeholder Forum (the SSF), the group that manages the ongoing development of SMETA and other related tools. The SSF is made up of working groups which include brands and retailers, NGOs, industry experts/associations and monitoring firms that are significantly involved in ethical trade auditing. It is currently active in the UK, China and Latin America.
Managing multi-tier data more simply
By using our products and services our members can manage their multi-tier, responsible sourcing data simply and efficiently. They can take advantage of standardised formats and reports whilst collaborating by sharing common information.
Providing cost-effective solutions
Sedex is 'owned' by its members, so it is completely focused on providing the responsible sourcing data, technology solutions, products and services our members need. Our scale and expertise also helps us bring together members and stakeholders to drive convergence between different industry standards and methodologies.
Driving continuous improvement
We understand supply chain management as a continuous, collaborative process of improvement. Our audit methodologies help businesses identify opportunities for improvement and work with their suppliers to make changes. They also reduce duplication and 'audit fatigue' by allowing suppliers to share one set of data with multiple customers.
What we don't do
We do not audit, and we do not certify. We create an independent framework through which responsible business can develop at global scale.
Take a look at our Frequently Asked Questions page for answers to common queries about Sedex, our membership, our system and ethical audits.
Take a look at our corporate brochure for further information on Sedex.

Swinton-based Avago Karting is in the fast lane for growth after purchasing 12 new go karts with £40,000 funding support from Yorkshire Bank.
The faster and environmentally friendly Sodi-Kart vehicles have replaced some of the older models in the fleet. Fitted with catalytic converters, the petrol Sodi-Karts will reduce costs as well as emissions.
Funding for the purchase was facilitated by Nick Leatherland, Relationship Manager at Yorkshire Bank's Business and Private Banking Centre in South Yorkshire.
Avago Karting was set up in 1995 by Steve Sutton who still manages the business. From their base in Swinton, the family firm has entertained over 400,000 drivers over its lifespan including stag and hen dos, birthday and children's parties.
Steve said: "We're always very busy, so the karts put in a lot of miles. Having the new vehicles up and running means that we can reduce our emissions, costs and keep our customers in the fast lane. By upgrading our stock, we have secured the business' future in the area for years to come. We have a solid platform for growth and are always looking for opportunities to improve and expand."
Kevin Elliott, Head of Yorkshire bank's Business and Private Banking Centre in South Yorkshire, said: "Yorkshire Bank is proud to support businesses investing in their future. Avago is well-known and respected locally, and the new additions to the fleet should help them continue to prosper and grow."

April 25, 2019 Stockhouse Editorials Note from Dudley at CommonStockWarrants.com I just stumbled on this article on the Stockhouse website and thought it worthy of bringing to your attention as it is always good to see others writing about warrants besides myself. While I would take exception to one or two points in the article, basically it is a good article and useful to all investors. Direct Link Article On Stockhouse Warrants ("share purchase warrants") are a financial instrument that can be an important tool for boosting investment returns. For novice investors, this begs the question: what is a warrant? A warrant is a form of stock option that comes into existence most commonly via the private placement process (for further general details here, please see Private Placements 101). Typically, when a company offers a large block of shares to finance a private placement, participating investors also receive share purchase warrants as an incentive for participation in the financing. The most common structure in these private placements is for ½ of a share purchase warrant to accompany each common share (each "unit") purchased in the private placement. Occasionally, companies will offer a full warrant with each common share. These share purchase warrants entitle the holder to acquire an additional common share at a fixed price (known as the execution price), for a fixed period of time. The way that investors can prosper from the acquisition of these warrants is simple. If the share price for the offering company rises above the … Continue reading

STOCKS NO BID – GOLD NO OFFER July 25, 2019 by Egon von Greyerz It is not difficult to understand Cassandra's enormous frustration. She was given the gift of accurately predicting important events and her curse was that no one would believe her. Some of us are certain that we can now see the biggest bubbles in economic history coming to an end with totally devastating effects for the world. But like Cassandra, we are also cursed since more than 99.9% of the world's population would not believe our predictions. The problem is that this time it will not only involve the biggest wealth destruction in history but also lead to major problems in society with mass unemployment, no social security, no pensions, breakdown in law and order, social unrest, civil war and geopolitical conflict. Reading these very dark predictions, I can understand that most people want to stick their head in the sand and ignore these dire forecasts. Obviously I would also hope that all these predictions are false and won't come to pass. But as Winston Churchill said: "THE TRUTH IS INCONTROVERTIBLE, MALICE MAY ATTACK IT, IGNORANCE MAY DERIDE IT, BUT IN THE END THERE IT IS" The problem is of course that the truth will often only be known after the event. I wrote about Cassandra back in June 2017 and have over a very long period tried to warn anyone who is willing to listen about the risks and the events that will affect us all. We are obviously … Continue reading
I dare say that every parent, grandparent, aunt and uncle, everyone, has been to a Chuck E. Cheese somewhere in the world. Chuck E. Cheese will soon be completing a merger with Leo Holding Corp., a blank check company, sometimes referred to as a Special Purpose Acquisition Corporation – (SPAC) which will allow CEC to become a publicly traded company. Upon the completion of this business combination, the new name will be Chuck E Cheese Brands, Inc. and new symbols will be issued for trading. Leo issued a press release announcing that it has scheduled the extraordinary general meeting of its shareholders to approve the Business Combination for July 30, 2019. However, I caution investors, until this merger is finalized issues can still arise, and until the deal is done, the deal is not done. Leo Holding Corp. currently trades as LHC on the New York Stock Exchange as do the stock warrants which trade as LHC.WS. Soon investors will have another restaurant and entertainment company trading which might represent an attractive opportunity depending upon your personal investment objectives. My fascination and purpose in writing this article is that Leo Holding Corp. has stock warrants trading which will become stock warrants of the new company which may be of interest to many investors. Currently in our databases, there are 66 blank check companies trading and with each company there is a stock warrant trading which was issued in the initial offering of the blank check company. All of these 66 … Continue reading
July 15, 2019 By Dudley Pierce Baker Founder – Editor http://CommonStockWarrants.com I'm going to vent for a moment……. This morning before the markets opened I saw that stock warrants on one of my favorite companies had an Ask Price of $C0.16 and 75,000 warrants available. Meaning I could have bought 75,000 warrants at C$0.16. Well I got busy and missed this trade but I am wondering, what fool sold these warrants? Surely not one of my savvy subscribers. I own a whole bunch of these warrants and while I really don't need to own more, why not, por que no, as I see these warrants selling at substantially higher before they expire in October 6, 2021. To be specific the stock warrants are on Equinox Gold, TSXV:EQX and EQX.WT The warrants expire on October 6, 2021 and have an exercise price of C$3.00 I love this story and legendary Ross Beaty now heads up the company as Chairman of the Board and currently owns over 66 million shares and 3 million of these stock warrants. Gold production is anticipated to be over 200,000 oz by years end and I am looking for the gold market to explode to the upside over the next year or two, probably much sooner. Of course, with higher gold prices for a producer the revenue goes to the bottom line. Our colleagues at TheTechnicalTraders are very bullish as well and they approach the markets from a technical perspective. Their last article should be of interest … Continue reading
GOLD PRICE SIGNALS NEXT GLOBAL CRISIS June 27, 2019 by Egon von Greyerz Finally it happened although it took 6 long years to break through The Gold Maginot Line at $1,350! This resistance was a lot stronger than the original French one in WW II since it took the Germans less than a year to penetrate it in 1940. But we must remember that the rising gold price is a warning signal for the coming economic crisis. In my article on February 14th I said. "No one must believe that the line will hold. It is extremely likely to be penetrated conclusively in 2019 and most probably within maximum the next three months." It took four months for the break to happen so I was one month out. Still it had to happen. I also said in the article that: "once it is broken, the correction of gold is finally over and we are on our way to new highs and much beyond." So that's where we are today. The break has now finally taken place and I doubt that we will see $1,350 decisively broken on the downside in my lifetime. The 6 year resistance line has now become an extremely strong support line. Yes, gold will go quickly to $1,650+ on its way to new highs and far above that. As I have said many times, we will see levels that no one can imagine today. GOLD RALLY HAS BARELY STARTED The precious metals rally hasn't really started yet. Gold … Continue reading
June 2, 2019 By Dudley Pierce Baker Common Stock Warrants On Friday May 31st, Gold screamed above $1300 to close out the month and maintain the gains through the day as we closed at $1305. We will know more as the markets open Sunday evening and Monday morning as to whether these gains will hold, but for now Gold has put in a very impressive move to the upside. Precious metals investors know that the fate of their shares and warrants lie with the price of gold and silver going forward. The last several years have been a disaster for these investors, but times may be changing. Below I present some charts for your review which I have been sharing with my subscribers. If I can assist you with some investments ideas, whether precious metals companies or stock warrants trading on those company, I would like you to consider joining me immediately.

May 2, 2019 By Dudley Pierce Baker $1900 gold this year would exceed the wildest imagination of most investors. I do think gold will exceed $1900 in the next two years or so, but this year? In the article I shared with you this morning from Gold Switzerland, they do see the possibility of Gold at $1900 THIS YEAR (2019). "… So the only short term method to predict gold's next move is looking at gold's technical picture. This tells us that gold is now in the finishing stages of a corrective move. Once the correction is over and gold breaks the Maginot Line at $1,350, we will see a quick move to $1,600. I would not be surprised to see gold making new highs in 2019 against the dollar, above $1,920. The next move up could start as soon as in the next 2-3 weeks. Possibly, but less likely is that the move starts August – September…." When gold starts to climb to $1500, $1600, $1700, $1800 and $1900 and more, you must know that virtually all resource shares and warrants will be on fire and rising hundreds but probably thousands of percent. Even those dogs and cats which you think are worthless will probably come back to life. Ten baggers, (1,000% or more) will be common place and stock warrants trading on those shares will be 2 times, 3 times or more than just ten baggers. I realize this sounds crazy to you, but this is what is … Continue reading

For many years now we have fitted diode suppression as standard on all KA magnets, in the belief that this is better than risking the possible damage which may be caused by unsuppressed coils, and also that it is easier for the customer to cut a diode off than it is to fit one on site.
With the growing trend for Zener Diodes to be fitted to solid state control systems, we are being asked more frequently to supply magnets without diodes. At present we intend to carry on fitting diodes as standard, so you will have to specify when ordering if you do not want them, and as the diodes are fitted at an early stage of coil assembly, we may have to cut the diodes off.
Your comments on this matter will be appreciated.

But some Chilean politicians condemned the decision, accusing the state-owned TVN of yielding to government pressure.
Foreign Minister Alejandro Foxley said he had given his opinion but denied putting any pressure on TVN.
The 1879-1884 war, in which Chile annexed Bolivian and Peruvian territory, remains a source of tension.
'Right decision'
TVN said it planned to broadcast Epopeya (Epic) at a later date. It had originally been scheduled to run this week.
The Peruvian government described it as the "right decision".
For his part, Mr Foxley said he had felt it necessary to give his opinion.
"We determined we were at a turning point in establishing a relationship with Peru that would help us heal historic wounds, and I thought it was important that TVN have all the facts needed to make a decision," Mr Foxley said.
"Any one of you who has visited these neighbouring countries [Peru and Bolivia] can tell you how enormously touchy some of these issues are."
But Sergio Bitar, leader of Party for Democracy (PPD) - a member of the governing coalition - said it went against freedom of expression.

If you don't have prior knowledge in the genuine estate earth, then you certainly actually will see a planet the place something is impatient and sluggish for your actual time.

October 30, 1825, Bedford Square, London, England.
February 2, 1864, London, England.
Catholic cemetery, Kensal Green, England.
Mary Berwick.
Daughter of poet Bryan Procter, Adelaide began writing hymns after joining the Roman Catholic church in 1851. She became a friend of writer Charles Dickens through her contributions to Household Words:
Dickens speaks of the enthusiasm for doing good that filled his young friend's heart: 'Now it the visitation of the sick that had possession of her; now it was the sheltering of the homeless; now it was the elementary teaching of the densely ignorant; now it was the raising up of those who had wandered and got trodden underfoot; now it was the wider employment of her own sex in the general business of life; now it was all these things at once. Perfectly unselfish, swift to sympathize, and eager to relieve, she wrought at such designs with a flushed earnestness that disregarded season, weather, time of day or night, food, rest.' Under such a strain her health gave way, and after fifteen months of suffering she found her rest.
Telford, pp. 247–48

Race Results
A multi-lane event held at Peterborough City Rowing Club, raced over 1000m on Saturday and 500m on Sunday. The majority of the 1000 crews entered camp over the weekend and the event is known for it's party on Saturday night, where much alcohol is consumed in a big party marquee. Even those that retire to their tents early are kept awake until the early hours by troupes of rowers singing loudly to cheesy classics.
Men's Summer IV+
Saturday, IM3 IV+ 1000m - Through to Repechage
After an excellent start, this all-graduate crew settled into a nice rhythm. At about 500m the focus faltered a little so the pace was picked up for a blistering 2nd place finish, securing a place in the repęchage.
After some sun-bathing and general mincing around, they got back in the boat to go after their place in the final. A shakier start against some excellent crews meant their luck had run out and they lost out by a length.
Sunday IM3 IV+ 500m - 3rd out of 3
Everyone managed to pull themselves together in time for the early start, which wasn't ideal. Half a length was lost in the first few strokes, which later opened up to a length. A final burst closed the gap slightly, but it was too little too late. A valiant effort considering that at least two of the opposition crews hadn't had to camp overnight!
Single Scull (Machin)
Saturday Women's Novice Sculls - 7th Overall
Sophie did not capsize.
Sunday Women's Novice Scull 500m - Didn't win
With a mild headache, Sophie managed to row her sorry self to the start, turn around, and row back again on the start gun. A bit of lane switching later she crossed the finish line. Not sure whether she was 3rd or 4th, all we know is she didn't win.

Christmas Rescue Mission Event
by Lynnette CurtisSPECIAL THANKS TO THE LAS VEGAS REVIEW-JOURNAL Posted: Dec. 19, 2012 | 4:45 p.m.
It's feast or famine at local charities this holiday season, with some enjoying increased donations and others making do with less.
While charitable giving has rebounded somewhat nationally as the economy slowly improves, Southern Nevada's charities are still reporting a mixed bag at the time of year they go through immense quantities of food and other goods to make the holidays cheerier for the valley's neediest residents.
The Las Vegas Rescue Mission is among the more fortunate
"We are ahead in canned goods and food donations by almost 25 percent over last year at this time," said Bob Brunner, executive director of the organization that offers shelter and recovery for homeless people, among other services.
More needy families and senior citizens received free food from the mission this year thanks to the stepped-up donations.
Meanwhile, cash contributions to the mission were almost identical to last year's, Brunner said. The Salvation Army hasn't been so lucky. The nonprofit recently closed three programs at its Owens Avenue campus, near Main Street, to cope with millions of dollars in debt – a decision officials there called "heartbreaking, devastating and difficult."
The cost-cutting measure displaced about 75 homeless and mentally ill clients and put 27 people out of work. Other local agencies scrambled to absorb the clients.
The Salvation Army's woes have continued through the holiday season.
"We're just not getting the monetary donations we were getting before," said Rhonda Lloyd, a Salvation Army major. The agency's well-known Red Kettle campaign is down $75,000 this year in the Las Vegas Valley, she said. But it's not all bad news. The agency's toy drives have gone well, Lloyd said, as "people have come out of the woodwork with toys."
The Salvation Army helps provide holiday meals for about 1,700 local families, toys for more than 8,700 children under 12 and gift cards for nearly 1,050 teenagers. It spends more than $300,000 to brighten the holidays for local families. "We're doing it; I don't know how," Lloyd said. "I'm praying for the money to come in." Lloyd was unsure why donations were down so much. "I wish I knew," she said. "I don't know if closing programs earlier in the fall has caused people to be concerned. But it's those monetary donations that kept those programs open." General donations not related to Christmas are down between 8 percent and 10 percent this year, she said. Three Square Food Bank, which distributes food to nearly 600 program partners that feed the needy, experienced a slight decrease in donations this year. That is because food retailers became more efficient, resulting in less food to be "rescued" by the food bank, said Erica Thompson, director of corporate giving for Three Square. Retailers donate food that would otherwise go to waste for distribution to the needy. Despite the decrease, Three Square is on track to distribute 25 million pounds of food this year. "Our program partners continue to rise to the challenge to meet the increasing need in the community and we are deeply appreciative of their hard work and efforts," Thompson said.
More Money, Less Food
Three Square is in the midst of its Fight Holiday Hunger program, which goes through December. Corporate partners match cash donations dollar for dollar during the program. Donations to Catholic Charities of Southern Nevada, one of the state's largest nonprofit social service organizations, were essentially even with 011 donations. While noncash donations – food and other goods – dropped this year, monetary contributions increased. "I think it is a sign the economy is getting better slightly," said Leslie Carmine, a spokeswoman for the more than 70-year-old charity. Catholic Charities will distribute toys, gift cards and clothing to preregistered families over the next few days. On Saturday, 200 children will receive toys as part of a Winter Wonderland event sponsored by the Shane Victorino Foundation. Catholic Charities also continues to regularly distribute groceries to those in need from its food pantry at 1501 Las Vegas Blvd. North. "The more we receive, the more we can give out," Carmine said.Many local individuals and businesses make a habit of giving, especially during the holidays.
On Tuesday, employees at Discount Retail Store Services in southwest Las Vegas put together 1,000 gift bags for the Rescue Mission, The Shade Tree shelter for women and children, and other charities. The bags included gloves and hats, with coloring books and other items for the children. Jim Wichert, owner of the business development company, said he always has been community-minded: "Companies have a responsibility to the community to help people out, especially in hard times. Even when times are good, there are always people who need help." The value of the gift bags totaled about $10,000. Brunner, the rescue mission's executive director, said such donations provide "a glimmer of hope and a ray of sunshine" to people who may not receive anything else this holiday season. "The joy is immeasurable when we are able to offer a brief respite from the concerns and stress of being in need and dependent upon others."

We're All In This Together

For years, big-shot TV brands have been enticing people by its 'innovation' in TV technology. This innovation — the OLED TV — promises superior picture quality and slimmer design.
People patiently waited for this technology until, in 2013, the very first OLED TVs hit the stores. The promise of superior picture quality and slimmer design was confirmed to be true; however, beyond that, the waiting game for the OLED TV proved to be just an overrated hype.
Yes, because OLED TVs do not have backlights, they are considerably thinner and lighter than the LCD and plasma TVs. Yes, because the OLED TVs can emit light directly, angles of viewing are quite wider. And yes, because OLED TVs have response times of less than 0.01 milliseconds, they can essentially waive the blurs off the screen.
But other than that, what can we possibly get from OLED TVs?
For a steep price of up to $17000, you can get an OLED TV which has a short life span. Due to a problem with the blue pixel of OLED TVs, color balance of the TV is affected. But people need not to worry. Major brands have supposedly fixed this problem. Unfortunately, no one now can prove it yet, until the issue is actually tested in the long run.
In addition, OLED TVs are only made to have 55inch screens. Other screen dimensions are said to be 'currently difficult to manufacture.' A 55inch screen is cool; however, with OLED TVs, not so much. OLED TVs are prone to screen burn. So after long hours of watching, you may one day stumble upon a $17000 broken TV in your room. Not so great.
But enough with the pros and cons. Let's talk what's in between.
OLED TVs also have a feature that no other TVs have. They can be curved. This curved design is both a good thing and a bad thing. This curved style is a good thing because it is supposedly developed to enhance the viewer's experience in watching. It is said to provide depth to the display, thereby providing a more life-like viewing. It is also said to deliver a panoramic effect and greatly reduce screen edge visual distortion as well as loss of detail. On the other hand, a curved design is a bad thing because it eliminates the option to wall-mount the TV. Also, it may be just a clever gimmick to boost the sales of the product.
Bottom line, I think that unless OLED TVs have been enhanced close to perfection with proven claims and results, it will generally be a thumbs down. Are you crazy about OLEDs? Let us know!

As many as 16 trains including Howrah-New Delhi Poorva Express, Howrah-Ranchi Shatabdi Express, Udyan Abha Toofan Express, Howrah-Dehradoon Express, Kanchunjungha Express and Ananya Express were cancelled, a E R release said.
City streets wore a deserted look as all vehicles were off the roads.
Shops, markets and educational institutions remained closed in the city which also witnessed heavy rains.
IGP (law and order) Raj Kanojia said bandh supporters put up road and rail blockades at some places but no untoward incident was reported from anywhere in the state.
Various airlines suspended flights from Kolkata during the bandh period today. Before the bandh period, 23 flights belonging to various airlines took off for their destinations in different parts of the country, airport sources said.

INSEAD to Offer New Executive Education Program in Sustainability
INSEAD Executive Education has announced that it will launch a new sustainability-focused executive education program.
The new program is called "Leading the Business of Sustainability," and will initially be offered on the school's Singapore campus.
It will be five days long and help managers take advantage of emerging opportunities in sustainability.
"Many organisations have not yet fully appreciated the business opportunities associated with sustainability, often perceiving it as a 'feel-good' feature promising limited financial return, which leads to a lack of urgency and incentive in planning and investment," according to Jean-Francois Manzoni, the program's director.
To help executives get away from this view, the program will illustrate the business value and clear financial gains that are possible with a new perception of sustainability. To do so, the program will address topics in strategy and innovation, stakeholder engagement, leadership and change, and measurement and reporting.
Leading the Business of Sustainability is aimed at senior executives with significant decision-making power, such as general managers and heads of divisions. Additionally, a limited number of seats will be available for regulators, NGO professionals, investors, and others.
The program will be offered beginning on November 2nd. For more information please see the video below or INSEAD's Leading the Business of Sustainability program webpage.

For the fourth straight day protesters camped out outside the ICE office at 8th and Cherry streets, demanding an immediate end to the separation and jailing of migrant families at the US, Mexico border.
The tension between authorities and the demonstrators began to grow shortly after noon.

Police repeatedly asked the protesters to move back from the streets, sidewalks and entrance to the ICE office, and move to a contained area.
But after three warnings, police moved in, tearing down tents. Several protesters resisted, resulting in arrests.
"We gave warnings today so we didn't have these door blocks, but we had to make seven arrests," said Deputy Commissioner Special Operations Dennis Wilson.

Amlian Wang, an organizer said, "At the national level we are calling for the abolition and defunding of ICE."
Rabbi Sue Levi Elwell adds, "The community of faith across the United States is enraged and we are gathering together in cities and in front of detention centers."
Earlier this week 29 protesters were arrested after a clash with police.
Deputy Commissioner of Special Operations Dennis Wilson said, "We are protecting their right to protest as well as trying to keep the streets open and trying access to this building. There are multiple businesses in this building so we have to make sure these entrances are kept open."
This protest is part of a growing nationwide movement criticizing the Trump administration's controversial "zero tolerance" immigration policy.
On Tuesday in New York City a protester scaled the base of the Statue of Liberty. She said she wouldn't come down until children separated from unauthorized parents at the U.S.-Mexico border were reunited. Police apprehended her a couple of hours later.
In a statement ICE said in part:
"U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) fully respects the rights of all people to voice their opinion peacefully without interference. ICE deportation officers conduct enforcement actions every day around the country, including Pennsylvania, as part of the agency's ongoing efforts to uphold public safety and border security."

A three –hour non-stop live band performance by the Funky Africans Band got patrons dancing their stress away as they climaxed Easter festivities at the Luv FM Family Party in the Park at Golden Tulip Kumasi-City Gardens.
Both young and old could not just hide their ecstatic mood at the bi-annual fun-filled event which comes off on during Christmas and Easter seasons.
patrons at this Easter's celebration had no less fun as the venue was packed with families taking time off to relax and have fun.
The plush Golden Tulip Hotel provided the serenity and warmth for people to respond to the rendition of songs across genre.
How would you resist an 'invitation' to tap your feet, nod your head and eventually put on your dancing shoe to 'exercise' the body to reggae, hi-life, francophone and popular 'adadam' tunes played live on accordion and saxophone musical instruments?
The 'infection' never spared anyone. Not even those who were shy.
The 'Biggie' Kofi Nuako-led band really mesmerized patrons with that thunderous performance, especially, when they did Hi-life legend, Amakye Dede's "Odo da Baabi".
"I don't feel like going home. Live band is a 'jam'. I will be here till, till," a patron, Mr. Osei Asibey, struggled to complete his sentence.
As more people invaded the floor after leader of the Funky Africans Band had assured them of 'till-daybreak'' show, came a spontaneous teeth-gnashing shout, "Sheeeey", when darkness was nigh.
Organizers then introduced yet another music and dance party, 'Private Party' led by Emperor DJ Chifaro to whip-up the party.
Easter Monday, 2019, will remain a memorable one for patrons s who chose Luv FM Family Party in the Park over all other events in town.
All too soon, it was time to call it quit because organizers had to respect the terms of engagement for use of the venue and bring proceedings to an end.

List Comprehensions
There's already a good tutorial that goes into depth regarding list comprehensions, so I won't spend much time on this topic. But I simply love list comprehensions. You can quickly and easily generate some really cool stuff, here's a few examples that go a little further than the tutorial
x = [i for i in range(100)] #list holding 0-99 y = [i for i in range(0,100,3)] #list holding values 0 - 99 counting by 3's z = [i for i in range(0,100,3) if i%2 == 1] #list holding ODD values 0 - 99 counting by 3's
Anyone who's looked at the Python snippets section lately knows that I love generators! Generators typically allow you to create a series of values without being forced to store all the values at one time. A simple version might be this:
def firstTen(): for i in range(10): yield i
This function "yields" the values 0 through 9. However, only one of these values are stored in memory at a given time. Here's an example of how this function would be used:
>>> x = firstTen() >>> print(next(x)) 0 >>> print(next(x)) 1 >>>for i in range(5): print(next(x)) 2 3 4 5 6
As you can see, we get the next value of the generator by using the next function. This example is cute, but it doesn't showcase the true power of generators!
Here's a slightly better example:
x = (i for i in range(100000000))
This creates a generator that will cycle through 100,000,000 numbers, but only 1 given value will be held in memory at a given time. Imagine how much less memory that would take up than having a list holding 100,000,000 numbers! However, I think the best is yet to come.
These generators are far better examples: Digit Product Sequence, Look and Say Sequence, and ever the crowd pleaser, fibonacci. These snippets create generators of unlimited sets. You can continue making larger and larger numbers until your pc has trouble keeping up.
Also, pretty cool, you can use generators in combination with list comprehensions! here's an example using the fibonacci generator:
x = fibonacciGenerator() y = [next(x) for i in range(100)]
Using a generator that already existed, I used a list comprehension to get the first 100 Fibonacci values. Very cool.
Yeah, python's lists are pretty awesome, but I came across a particularly cool gem the other night. I remember in a previous post, one guy was trying to construct a dictionary from a list. for each unique value in the list, the dictionary would have a key. The value associated with that key would be the number of times that particular value occurred in the list. Little did he know that this could be accomplished with ease using a built in structure, the counter dictionary!
>>> from collections import Counter >>> x = [1,2,2,5,7,3,5,7,8,45,7,8,4,5,8,4,] >>> y = Counter(x) >>> print(y) Counter({5: 3, 7: 3, 8: 3, 2: 2, 4: 2, 1: 1, 3: 1, 45: 1})
I bet there are a lot of other cool things in that module, but I haven't taken the time to really look at it.
Here's another short and sweet one. Using string.join() one is able to quickly turn a list into a nicely formatted string. Here's a few quick examples that are hopefully self explanatory:
>>> from random import randint >>> x = [str(randint(0,9)) for i in range(20)] >>> print(x) ['7', '7', '1', '9', '0', '9', '3', '4', '0', '1', '0', '3', '8', '3', '1', '7', '6', '3', '4', '6'] >>> ''.join(x) '77190934010383176346' >>> ', '.join(x) '7, 7, 1, 9, 0, 9, 3, 4, 0, 1, 0, 3, 8, 3, 1, 7, 6, 3, 4, 6' >>> ','.join(x) '7,7,1,9,0,9,3,4,0,1,0,3,8,3,1,7,6,3,4,6' >>> "(" + ')-('.join(x) + ")" '(7)-(7)-(1)-(9)-(0)-(9)-(3)-(4)-(0)-(1)-(0)-(3)-(8)-(3)-(1)-(7)-(6)-(3)-(4)-(6)' >>> '->'.join(x) '7->7->1->9->0->9->3->4->0->1->0->3->8->3->1->7->6->3->4->6'#reminds me of a linked list, don't you agree?
So, those are my top 4 favorite Python gems. What are your favorites?
