UNIQUE ATHLETE Meanwhile, Bolt said he is not like any other athlete. "I am different, I bring a different vibe. I am a performer, not just an athlete, but I am a performer. I bring and I entertain, so that's what makes me different," said Bolt. He added that he is looking forward to running here in Jamaica at the Racers Grand Prix, scheduled for the National Stadium on June 11. "I haven't run in Jamaica for a couple of years now, so for me, I am looking forward to that, so people should definitely come out and support." He reiterated his intention to close out his illustrious career "definitely unbeaten". "I won't be one of those athletes, after you dominate over a couple of years and you decide at the last minute that you want to come back, you start to lose. It doesn't look good, so I won't be one of those athletes. When I hang up my spikes, that is it," he told The Gleaner. Bolt stressed that he is the best of this era when asked how he compares with American great Carl Lewis. "In this era, for sure," he said, then added with a laugh when pressed further, "Come on, man! Come on!" As iconic Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt prepares to add to his six Olympic gold medals at the upcoming Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, the 29-year-old reveals that this might be the most important year of his career. Bolt said he is "under no pressure", but wants to entertain his fans, remain fit and compete hard. The 100 and 200m world record holder says he is looking forward to putting on a show for his fans in his Cayman Invitational season-opener on May 14 in the Cayman Islands. "I am in good nick, training hard. My time trials are going well, my coach is happy, so everything is going well, and I am just looking forward to my first meet in Cayman. "I think it's one of the big years, now that it's (career) finishing. It's really a big deal, so I am just trying to refocus and get my mind right and just go out there and just execute. And just to win is always the plan," continued Bolt. He was speaking in an interview Sunday night following a reception and auction ceremony hosted by Jamaica National Building Society (JNBS) at The Jamaica Pegasus hotel in New Kingston. The reception showcased items of Racers stars' Bolt, Yohan Blake, Warren Weir and Kemar Bailey-Cole, including medals, memorabilia, kits and spikes, some of which were silently auctioned.

Overseas-based Guyanese opens multimillion-dollar business in Berbice
Berbicians were on Saturday last given another alternative to shop for brand name clothing and cosmetics as Fancey's Outlet and Make-up Academy located at Clifton Public Road, Corentyne, Berbice, opened its doors for the first time.The idea of the establishment was birthed in October 2018 during a discussion with the owner, Mohabir Persaud, and popular make-up artist, Vincent Shelto. After a few months of brainstorming ideas, the construction of the state-of-the-art facility commenced in February 2019.Three months later, the doors to one of the most sophisticated stores were opened, presenting more choices to Berbicians. The facility, which cost about $30 million will offer affordable branded clothing.At the opening on Saturday, a representative from the Rose Hall Town Council, Dave Boodhoo, congratulated the owners of the business while noting his concerns about the timing of the venture especially as it relates to the unstable political atmosphere.In addition, he further expressed concerns about the spending power of Berbicians at this time but nevertheless, is optimistic that business will pick up in due time.Public Relations Officer of the Central Corentyne Chambers, Poonai, who had to leave abruptly to attend to his customers, also extended best wishes to the owners and staff of the newly-opened business. However, unfortunately, the owner of the establishment, who could not have been in Guyana for the grand opening, believes that the state-of-the-art facility will cater to the fashion needs of both men and women.He noted that as a businessman, he takes pleasure is creating a unique atmosphere that has never been seen before in Corentyne. He also congratulated his partners who have come on board while noting that Fancey's Outlet and Make-Up Academy will be around for a very long time.Popular make-up artist, Vincent Shelto in his brief remarks outlined that his Master Class will be taken to Berbice on a monthly basis to provide the opportunity for those who wish to take applying make-up to another level.The first make-up class commenced on Monday, May 6 and will last for a week. Nevertheless, Shelto believes that the collaboration will provide high-end clothing and make-up on a new level. The establishment falls under the MMP Global Inc, which has provided employment for close to 20 persons.

A level results day: Grading every Premier League club by their transfer window
Most Popular Premier League News 21 SORRY What initially looks promising tends to drift toward slapdash as you analyse further. The moves for Andriy Yarmolenko and Felipe Anderson look decent enough but come on the back of average seasons, while the free transfer signing of Ryan Fredericks adds much needed pace to the defence but solidity may have been preferred. Lukasz Fabianski is an excellent upgrade between the sticks, but deals for Jack Wilshere, Issa Diop, Fabian Balbeuna, Xande Silva, and Lucas Perez could all swing either way. 17. Crystal Palace (C-) 21 After surviving last season you fear it might be curtains for the Terriers with this window. Terence Kongolo coming in permanently is a good signing and Adama Diakhaby seems like a promising signing. Erik Durm may do well if he stays fit but a quality goalkeeper has not been added with Jonas Lossl set to stat again, while Ramadan Sobhi flattered to deceive during his time at Stoke. 6. Chelsea (B) 20. Bournemouth (E) 21 Boxing Day fixtures: All nine Premier League games live on talkSPORT In theory, the Cottagers have upgraded their squad fully in just one transfer window, but it could take time for the team to settle, which is a risk. Their defence is likely to include just one player from their promotion winning squad. Jean Michael Seri could prove the deal of the summer, while Aleksandar Mitrovic seems the perfect signing after his brilliant loan spell last term. Joe Bryan and Sergio Rico were fine late additions, but whether Andre-Frank Anguissa is worth £30m will need to be judged later in the campaign. Every current Premier League club's best kit from the past decade Liverpool news live: Klopp reveals when Minamino will play and issues injury update It's hard to be too optimistic about the Cherries when they have only signed an ill-disciplined defensive midfielder in Jefferson Lerma, a left-back in Diego Rico, and Sheffield United starlet David Brooks. They seem set to continue being a team who leaks goals and may well face a season battling relegation. 21 18. Cardiff City (D) revealed As it is A-level results day, we thought we would dish out grades to Premier League clubs for their transfer business.Tottenham Hotspur became the first top-flight since the summer window was introduced not to land a single signing.Brighton and Hove Albion, meanwhile, completed 14 moves before the deadline was over, while Fulham and Wolves also made a number of additions. whoops The newly-promoted outfit now have a squad resembling a mid-table Premier League side, at the least. Loanees to join permanently are Willy Boly, Diogo Jota, Leo Bonatini, and Benik Afobe. The latter was immediately loaned and could be sold for profit while the club have added Joao Moutinho and Rui Patricio, who bring continental experience to the table. Adama Traore could be an inspired signing and Raul Jimenez, on loan from Benfica, will add goals. Barry Douglas' departure does cloud things though given what he contributed last-term. How Everton could look in January under Ancelotti with new signings A promising young goalkeeper in Angus Gunn has joined the club, improving them immediately, while Jannik Vestergaard will go some way to replacing Virgil van Dijk. Stuart Armstrong seems a slight risk, but there are high hopes for Mohamed Elyounoussi if he can hit the ground running, and the late deal for Danny Ings looks like a decent bit of business. Divisive influences have also been moved on, which seems wise from Mark Hughes. 11. Newcastle United (C) 21 21 21 21 5. Leicester City (B) 9. Brighton and Hove Albion (B-) changes Okay, they didn't manage to sign a new player but they have managed to hand Harry Kane a new contract, along with Heung-Min Son, Erik Lamela and, perhaps more importantly, Mauricio Pochettino. They have also, for the time being, kept Mousa Dembele, Toby Alderweireld, and Christian Eriksen. It's not to be sniffed at. 21 13. Watford (C) 15. Manchester United (C-) Which club made the best moves in transfer market? predicted 16. Tottenham Hotspur (C-) 21 8. West Ham (B-) 21 12. Southampton (C) 21 14. Huddersfield Town (C-) smart causal 21 The signing of Riyad Mahrez promises to improve them further on the flanks, allowing Bernardo Silva to spend more time centrally, if needed. The defence, perhaps could have done with an addition but it should hold up unless there is another long-term injury. A simple window for Pep Guardiola and a stress-free one which will be more than welcome. 19. Burnley (D-) Richarlison left for a huge sum, but the Hornets haven't splashed the cash, showing admirable restraint. Adam Masina should finally get the left-back role sorted, while Gerard Deulofeu's transfer seems decent enough. They needed a striker though and could struggle for goals again. How the Premier League table could change after the Boxing Day fixtures 21 2. Wolverhampton Wanderers (A) The Seagulls have done a lot of business, giving them some great depth but whether they have improved the first XI is debatable. Alireza Jahanbakhsh joins after an incredible campaign but look what happened to ex-Eredivisie top scorer Vincent Janssen at Spurs. Bernardo coming in from RB Leipzig also holds promise, along with Florin Andone, but it will take time for it to fully shake down. silverware A quietly fine window for Rafael Benitez as he struggles under the ownership of Mike Ashley sees Martin Dubravka snapped up permanently, while the re-signing of Kenedy is a real boon. Fabian Schar will add something to the backline with Florian Lejeune injured. Yoshinori Muto and Salomon Rondon are smart frontline additions too, with Ki Sung-Yueng giving depth in midfield. Did Mahrez just accidentally reveal Fernandinho is leaving Man City this summer? 10. Manchester City (C+) 21 Guardiola-inspired tactics: Is this how Arsenal will line up under Arteta? A smart window for the Foxes sees them lose star man Riyad Mahrez but strengthen across the pitch. Ricardo Pereira is the upgrade on Danny Simpson which has been sorely needed, Jonny Evans brings defensive experience, while James Maddison and Caglar Soyuncu are exciting young additions. If Rachid Ghezzal can do half the job Mahrez did he'll be worth the £12m. Sometimes it doesn't matter how many you sign though, it's about who you keep and who you lose too, and the quality of those you bring in.So, with that in mind, here at talkSPORT.com we've graded every Premier League club's transfer business.Who won the window? Find out below… 21 7. Everton (B) 21 3. Fulham (A) The average first-team salaries at every Premier League club in 2019 latest Even though they landed Fred, which is a good acquisition, it's going to be thought of as a bad transfer window. Jose Mourinho is clearly unhappy with his lot as a central defender wasn't added so it will be a fun first half of the season at Old Trafford. Keeping hold of Wilfried Zaha is the Eagles' biggest moment of the transfer window but while Max Meyer on a free transfer is an excellent move. More could have been done though, especially in defence. The Blues' transfer window has been better than expected, after a late flurry of activity. Once the Blues finally secured their new manager Maurizio Sarri and first signing in Jorginho, they pulled themselves together. Keeping hold of Eden Hazard, N'Golo Kante and Willian is impressive, while losing Thibaut Courtois and replacing him with Kepa Arrizabalaga is not the end of the world. Plus they also gained the temporary services of Mateo Kovacic in the process. It could have been far worse. Wham, bam, thank you, ma'am. The Reds were in and out in a jiffy but delivered the goods for Jurgen Klopp. They knew the players they wanted, they signed them early and they have been able to kick back and relax. Naby Keita improves the midfield, although perhaps may mean Mohamed Salah seeing less of the ball, while Alisson should improve distribution from goalkeeper, at the very least. Fabinho seems smart but even Tiemoue Bakayoko looked half decent in Ligue 1 so may need time to adapt. 21 If the Clarets qualify for the Europa League group stages their small squad may really struggle in the Premier League. Signing Joe Hart seems like a panic buy for the time being, and a loan signing may have been the best move. Ben Gibson will add to the defence but may not actually improve them immediately and Matej Vydra is a risk at £11m. 21 There was a mad rush for the Toffees at the end of the transfer window and they've definitely improved their defensive options. Richarlison should come good, despite the large fee but Andre Gomes is an odd one and is unlikely set the Premier League alight. Yerry Mina will add aerial ability but there are concerns about his overall play. All done and dusted early door, the Gunners did well to add Lucas Torreira and Matteo Guendouzi already looks like a real talent. Bernd Leno will, as a goalkeeper in a new country, need time to adapt, and Sokratis Papastathopoulos should slot in alongside Shkodran Mustafi well enough, whether it improves them enough defensively is yet to be seen. 1. Liverpool (A*) 21 Signing Josh Murphy looks good but Victor Camarasa doesn't appear to offer much, while Greg Cunningham, Alex Smithies, and Bobby Reid will need to up their games to succeed in the Premier League. possible standings 4. Arsenal (B+) 21 England's most successful clubs of the past decade, according to trophies won gameday cracker Sky Sports presenter apologises for remarks made during Neville's racism discussion
So Cheryl Cole has a new "celebrity" trainer.In case you didn't know her name, it is Tracy Anderson. Her client list is impressive to say the least and with names like Gwyneth Paltrow, Jennifer Lopez and Victoria Beckham under her tutelage, she must know what she is doing, right?I mean, just look at her clients. They are thin. They are rich so they only use "the best". They are famous, so they MUST know what they are talking about, because being famous means that your opinion counts as fact, doesn't it?? To some in the media it does. The Daily Mail in the UK ran a story about how Cheryl got in shape and even had quotes from Tracy Anderson in it.Quotes like;"Instead of working the main leg muscles, I worked the tiny ones around Cheryl's thighs. This pulls the big leg muscles in and makes her thighs look slimmer, she looked amazing in those tiny shorts."Sounds great? This statement is nothing more than waffle. I'm not sure which tiny muscles she is referring to that 'pulls the big leg muscles in': the only thing that comes to my mind is a cramp.A cramp pulls my leg muscles in. Maybe when I'm having a cramp, my legs look amazing but I'm in too much pain to notice? Next time I have a cramp, I'm getting a pair of tiny shorts.Tracy also states that;'Women should never lift more than three pound weights or they'll get bulky'Woah, woah, woah, hold on there Missy! 3lbs will make you bulky? Ladies STEP AWAY FROM YOUR CHILDREN NOW! Put them down before you get bulky! Also, no more carrying shopping bags please. And that coat you wear has to weigh at least 3lbs? Be careful, or wearing it could give you quads like a shire pony.She doesn't like running or traditional cardio either;'While running and cycling may burn calories, they do not design feminine muscles or get rid of an imbalance that may masquerade as a "problem area."What does a feminine muscle look like? It must have a snazzy dress sense or something?…imbalance that may masquerade as a "problem area."?So the fat around your waist is actually a muscular imbalance? I wish I knew which muscle that is, because once I get it rebalanced I can solve the world's obesity problems.Anyhow, it's not just her training methodologies that leave a lot to be desired. The diet plan that features in her '30 Day Method' is equally alarming.A presenter for the BBC's Watchdog programme actually followed the programme and diet plan for the full 30 days.The results were as expected and the weight loss as promised.It was the blackouts and dizzy-spells with constant hunger and a sluggish digestive system that was an unexpected bonus.She had the diet plan checked by Catherine Collins, principal dietician at St George's Hospital, London, and the results were shocking.Calories were around 700 per day which is far too low.It was low in iron which can lead to anaemia.It was lacking in absorbable calcium which can lead to osteoporosis and osteopenia too – something that Gwyneth Paltrow has been diagnosed with. (Coincidence?)Protein levels were low.Even the vitamins that are available cannot be absorbed since there is no fat present in the diet to act as an absorption vehicle, so they will just be excreted from the body.All this on top of Tracy's recommended exercise regime of 2 hours per day 6 days per week for the rest of your life.The thing you need to realise is that celebrities are as fallible as the rest of us.They have the added pressure of constant media attention and criticism to deal with, so when they see someone promising instant results they will jump on it, just like any of us.Some of the worst diets ever invented came out of Hollywood.Just because they are doing it, doesn't mean it's right.#TrainSmartFor further information on how to work your smaller, feminine muscles, contact me through the link below.https://www.facebook.com/pages/Rushe-Personal-Training-and-Performance/120518884715118* Emmet is the owner and operator of Rushe Personal Training and PerformanceEMMET RUSHE'S FITNESS COLUMN: CELEBRITY HEALTH & FITNESS was last modified: July 14th, 2014 by John2Share this:Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)Click to share on Reddit (Opens in new window)Click to share on Pocket (Opens in new window)Click to share on Telegram (Opens in new window)Click to share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)Click to share on Skype (Opens in new window)Click to print (Opens in new window)Tags:celebrity trainerscolumnemmet rushefitness
Miers to continue visiting senators in advance of hearing
WASHINGTON (AP) – Supreme Court nominee Harriet Miers will continue meeting with senators next week, the White House said Friday, despite calls from some conservatives who said the courtesy visits aren't helping and she should focus instead on preparing for her confirmation hearing. "She's done about 25 visits so far, and she's got about a dozen next week," White House spokesman Jim Dyke said Friday. "We get advice on a regular basis from outside groups. It doesn't mean it's going to happen." In a conference call Thursday, some conservatives suggested Miers should stop calling on senators, saying that the visits, which have included some strategic stumbles on her part, have not been helping the White House counsel's nomination as the replacement for retiring Justice Sandra Day O'Connor. The conservatives on the call were airing their views to Leonard Leo, who is on leave as executive vice president of the Federalist Society to help the White House shepherd Miers' nomination through the Senate. While those discussions were going on, "we were adding congressional visits to her already established schedule for next week," Dyke said. One of the senators Miers will visit next week is conservative Sen. George Allen, R-Va. "I look forward to talking to her, asking her views in a variety of different ways to try and discern her judicial philosophy," Allen told Don Imus, whose radio show is simulcast on cable's MSNBC. Miers has faced attacks from both sides of the political spectrum – most notably from the president's conservative allies – though none of the Senate's majority Republicans has come out against her. President Bush's claim that she is the most qualified candidate has been roundly criticized by conservatives who wanted him to look to conservative federal judges like Priscilla Owen or Janice Rogers Brown. Bush said Thursday that Miers' confirmation process will show a "competent, strong, capable woman who shares the same judicial philosophy that I share." Miers has faced some criticism this week from senators, with some complaining that she has been vague in their private meetings with her and others complaining about her answers to a written questionnaire that the Judiciary Committee sent her. "I would say that to this point Ms. Miers' efforts to win support have not been successful," said Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., a member of the Judiciary Committee, on Thursday. Dyke said the process is moving forward for Miers. "As far as this week is concerned, you've seen this process move forward and that's important, and you have learned more about her judicial philosophy and her qualifications and her experiences, all important considerations for senators," he said. Senators have set her confirmation hearing date for Nov. 7. When it comes to the incomplete answers on her Judiciary Committee questionnaire, "she told Sen. Specter in her first meeting that she had a lot of information back in Texas based on her 30-year career and that she may have to sort of produce that on a rolling basis, so that continues to happen," Dyke said. Miers also has been promoted this week by her former colleagues from Texas, including the Dallas Bar Association and a group of former Texas state justices, who came up to the White House earlier this week to promote her nomination. On Friday, members of the Texas Bar Association were to promote Miers' qualifications during a news conference in the Capitol.

Indonesia's Lion Air removed from European Union blacklist
Sending a big message about improvements in Indonesian airlines safety, the European Union (EU) has removed Indonesia's largest domestic airline, Lion Air from their EU Blacklist. Lion Air now joins the likes of Garuda Indonesia, AirAsia Indonesia, Batik Air (Lion Air's full service subsidiary) and Citilink (Garuda's low cost subsidiary)in that it could operate flights in to the EU if it wished as safety is no longer of concern. What is the EU Blacklist?A list of airlines banned from flying into European airspace due to safety concerns arising from alleged poor aircraft maintenance and/or regulatory oversight. Airlines banned by the EU may have a flawless safety record however the potential risk towards passenger safety is deemed by the EU as too high and a ban is put in place. All the world's major airlines are assessed by the EU whether they opertate flights to Europe or not making it an exceptional resource when lokoing at airline safety. Lion Air's sister company, Thai Lion Air was never on the EU blacklist and it has also passed the very important IOSA audit (see below) to get its IOSA certification. Lion Air Indonesia and subsidiary Batik Air are in the process of doing this audit and if all goes well should have their IOSA certification by September 2016. What is IOSA Certification?The IATA* Operational Safety Audit (IOSA) certification audit is an internationally recognised and accepted evaluation system designed to assess the operational management and control systems of an airline. IOSA uses internationally recognised audit principles and is designed to conduct audits in a standardised and consistent manner. Airlines are re evaluated every two years. Registering for IOSA certification and auditing is not mandatory therefore an airline that does not have IOSA certification may have either failed the IOSA audit or alternatively chosen not to participate. *IATA (International Air Transport Association)Using the AirlineRatings.com seven star safety rating system, if Lion Air complete and pass their IOSA safety audit, it will make them, along with Garuda, the safest airline in Indonesia.Lion Air, along with the majority of Indonesian Airlines have had a string of incidents and crashes over the last decade which has put Indonesian aviation under scrutiny for quite some time. Lion Air however, whilst having had 6 incidents over the past 10 years, last had an accident involving the loss of lives back in 2004. Flag carrier, Garuda Indonesia have had only thee incidents in the past 10 years but the incident in 2007 resulted in the death of 21 people. AirAsia has only had one incident in 2014 but tragically that resulted in the death of all 162 passengers and crew on board. Lion AIr ExpansionThe Lion Group is preparing to build up its presence in the international market after focusing almost entirely on domestic operations in its initial 15 years. According to CAPA, Lion is the largest domestic airline group outside China and the US, but has a small international operation that is only about the size of Poland's national carrier LOT. The group has been working hard to raise its safety standards and public image and the announcement from the EU is a big step towards this.IOSA certification and European Union approval should make it easier for the airlines under the Lion Group to secure approval from civil aviation authorities in several countries which will enable it to expand at a rapid rate into international markets. Lion Air has previously hinted at flights between Indonesia and Australia to compete with rival AirAsia and if things continue on the up for the Lion group, this may soon become a reality as their safety standards will better meet Australian standards.
After 56 years, Sardar Sarovar project officially 'complete'
Members of Narmada Bachao Andolan protest against the closure of Sardar Sarovar Dam at Shram Shakti Bhavan in New Delhi on May 17, 2017. "It's a historic day for Gujarat as the Narmada project, known as Lifeline of Gujarat, gets final approval to shut the gates to allow storage of water to its full capacity. The Modi government in the Centre gave this landmark gift to the people of Gujarat," Chief Minister Vijay Rupani, said announcing the decision.On Saturday, Mr Rupani, his deputy Nitin Patel and top officials visited the dam site in Narmada district to supervise the works to be completed by June 30 as per the NCA's order. The State will also organise a Narmada festival in every district to celebrate the completion of the project.In February this year, the Apex Court had cleared the decks for the completion of the project by ordering monetary compensation to the tune of ₹60 lakh per family for the project affected families, who will be displaced in Madhya Pradesh with the raising the dam's height in Gujarat.Prior to the NCA meeting on Friday, its Environment Sub-group, chaired by Union secretary of environment and forests had reviewed implementation of environment safeguard measures and recommended lowering of the gates for completion of the project.The Resettlement and Rehabilitation sub-group chaired the Union Secretary of Social Justice & Empowerment had also reviewed the rehabilitation and resettlement of project affected families as per the Narmada Water Disputes Tribunal (NWDT) Award and the Supreme Court order delivered in February 2017. | Photo Credit: PTI In a major boost to the ruling BJP before the Assembly polls, the Narmada Control Authority (NCA) has given the final go ahead to the Gujarat government to close the Sardar Sarovar Dam (SSD) gates, almost 56 years after the dam's foundation was laid in South Gujarat by the then Prime Minister M. Jawaharlal Nehru in 1961.In its meeting held on Friday, the NCA permitted increasing the dam's height by lowering of 30 gates and impounding of water in the reservoir upto its Full Reservoir Level (FRL) of EL 138.68 metres.The latest and final clearance for the project that has faced environmental issues, displacement of tribals and a protracted legal battle, will lead to the completion of the project and result in an increase in the dam's storage capacity from 1,565 million cubic metres (MCM) to 5,740 MCM and also increase hydro power generation from the current 1,300 MW to 1,450 MW.According to the Union Water Resources Ministry, this additional storage would irrigate about eight lakh hectares. Additionally, about one crore population will get assured drinking water. The SSD is primarily aimed at meeting the water requirements of the drought prone and desert areas of Gujarat and Rajasthan.

ENENSYS selected by SBS in Korea for ATSC 3.0 rolloutWednesday, January 18th, 2017
ENENSYS Selected By Seoul Broadcasting System For ATSC 3.0 Rollout With 4K
RENNES, France — ENENSYS, designers and manufacturers of digital TV transmission technologies, working with their Korea partner SMC NS, has been selected by Seoul Broadcasting System (SBS) in Korea to supply its new ATSCheduler and IPGuard products for the launch of ATSC 3.0 DTT services in February this year.
Korea is leading the rollout of the new IP-based digital terrestrial standard, which is in the final stages of development. SBS will launch in the Seoul area, with DTT coverage expanding across the rest of the country in advance of the 2018 Winter Olympics to be held in Pyeongchang.
SBS will operate one ATSC 3.0 multiplex in a 6MHz RF channel with capacity for either one 4K UHD service or one 4K UHD plus one HD service, depending on the nature of the content and the compression applied. It has selected ENENSYS ATSchedulers and IPGuard changeover switches as key components of the new system.
The ATScheduler is the 'Broadcast Gateway' of the ATSC 3.0 network, providing IP stream adaption, PLP (Physical Layer Pipe) allocation, SFN timing, in-band control and signalling to all the ATSC modulators.
Located at the broadcast playout centre, the ATSCheduler encapsulates multiple IP Streams coming from HEVC encoders, signalling generators and captioning servers using ROUTE or MMTP protocols. Ensuring the ALP encapsulation, the BBFrame allocation, the different LLS (Low Layer Signaling) generation, it outputs the resulting ATSC-compliant STL (Studio to Transmitter Link) stream protocol over IP.
The ATScheduler module runs in ENENSYS' HDc chassis that can embed up to six ATScheduler modules in 1U: the same chassis can output up to six STL streams over IP. The IPGuard changeover switch provides automatic main/backup switching of STL and other IP streams.
Crucially, ENENSYS' ATSCheduler supports single frequency network deployment (SFN), providing the spectrum efficiency required for terrestrial transition.
Colin Prior, APAC Sales Manager at Enensys, said, "This is a ground-breaking deployment by SBS, as part of the Korean push for the first rollout of ATSC 3.0 services. We are very pleased and proud to be involved with this project. The work we are doing is being fed back into the ATSC 3.0 standard, which we have been closely involved with throughout its development."
Mr Sang Jim Kim, Director of Research – New Media Project Team at SBS said, "We are very pleased to be working with ENENSYS as the company has great knowledge of digital terrestrial broadcasting and specifically now with the new ATSC 3.0 standard. We are helping to push the standard forwards and the launch of a UHD services over DTT is very exciting. Once again Korea broadcasters are leading the technological advance."

Carly Rae Jepsen released her new album, Committed, final week. As my colleague James Rettig place it in his evaluation, Committed is "very a lot just a collection of pop songs," some of which are fairly great, but most of which are just fine. But the CRJ stans beg to differ.
Committed now has the highest Metacritic user score of all time, placing it ahead of albums like Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp A Butterfly and Radiohead's In Rainbows, each of which are also in the prime ten. It is also worth nothing at all that Switchfoot's Hello Hurricane is #eight.
Committed's user score is 9.four, "Universal acclaim primarily based on 368 Ratings." Its Metascore is 80, "Generally favorable evaluations primarily based on 18 Critics." Go off!

"Hirsch Ballin's book is very important for academics and practitioners in the field of citizenship. It embraces the complexity of citizenship with all its academic, practical and emotional meanings. Hopefully, Hirsch Ballin's work can serve as a compass for new directions in immigration and naturalisation debates." Katja Swider in: Journal of European Integration, Vol 38. nr. 4, 2016
International criminal justice, and in particular the icc, has been overburdened by the unrestrained idealism underlying the ambitions inscribed in its fundaments. However, the resulting acts of legal development have not been without value. On the contrary, it is only when idealism sharpens our view on reality that progress can be achieved. Striving to gradually strengthen international criminal justice is therefore worthwhile. Our best bet is to seek to understand where shortcomings in the existing system are grist to the mill for cynicism and to look for opportunities to make international criminal justice more credible in the eyes of victim populations. The question of how much criminal justice the world can afford is the wrong question to ask. Rather, we should be asking whether the international community, if it is still concerned about establishing trust and peace among nations, can afford to do away with international criminal justice.

Not having time to go, I skipped my 40th reunion this past summer. I did ask for the picture, though -- and when it came I thought "Who are all of those old folks?" I've looked at it several times and don't think I can recognize anyone. (Of oourse, *I* still look as young, handsome and viral [sic] as always.)
But I've noticed something: as time goes by and the need to make an impression to satisfy one's ego fades, reunions get more and more interesting and fun to attend. Now mind you, at least one of my classmates was sentenced this past summer for defrauding the government!
I'm looking forward to my wife's college reunion in Philly this coming spring. At the last one, when the "new" VW bug was newly out, one of her classmates and her husband arrived in one plastered with peace symbols, flowers and so on. The following conversation took place"
"Nice car!"
"Yes, I always wanted a VW like that, with the flowers and things. Messes with their minds at work."
"Really? What do you do?"
"I work for NASDAQ."
"Cool! What do you do there?"
"Well, ah,..."
"Come on, you can tell me."
"Well, I'm the President."
And a good time (and lots of good drinks) was had by all.

Louisiana Loan Portfolio Guaranty Program
The Louisiana Loan Portfolio Guaranty Program offers loans of up to $100,000 to Louisiana small businesses of fewer than 100 employees that have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The loans require no payments for 180 days at interest rates of no more than 3.5 percent. The total loan pool is $50 million. FAQs, a list of participating banks, and additional information is available on LED's website.
Lenders interested in participating should contact LED by calling Business Development Manager Kelly Raney at 225.342.0411 or by emailing her at firstname.lastname@example.com.
CARES Act Information
The CARES Act passed on March 27. Congress put together this overview for small business owners. The provisions include the Paycheck Protection Program, Economic Injury Recovery Loan advances, and small business debt relief for existing SBA loans. Detailed information on each, including FAQs, is available in the overview link above, and in the drop down menus below. America's SBDC has created a spreadsheet that compares all of the currently available SBA programs; access the document here.
Paycheck Protection Program
The Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) provides cash-flow assistance through 100 percent federally guaranteed loans to employers who maintain their payroll during this emergency. If employers maintain their payroll, the loans are forgivable, which helps workers remain employed, and helps affected small businesses and our economy snap-back quicker after the crisis. The program application period opened on April 3. Borrowers are urged to apply immediately and for the full loan amount of $10 million, as only one loan per borrower will be allowed. For a quick guide on the differences between the Paycheck Protection Program and the Economic Injury Disaster Loan, click here.
Economic Injury Disaster Recovery Loan Grants (Advances)
Details on this program begin on page 7 of this this overview from Congress. These grants provide an emergency advance of up to $10,000 to small businesses and private non-profits harmed by COVID-19 within three days of applying for an SBA Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL). To access the advance, you first apply for an EIDL and then request the advance. The advance does not need to be repaid under any circumstance, and may be used to keep employees on payroll, to pay for sick leave, meet increased production costs due to supply chain disruptions, or pay business obligations, including debts, rent and mortgage payments. Businesses may also roll the advance into a forgivable PPP loan (although that $10K will be deducted from the forgivable portion). Businesses may take both an EIDL and a PPP, but if they do they cannot use the two for the same purpose.
- Eligibility: businesses with 500 employees or fewer, sole proprietorships, independent contractors, cooperatives and employee-owned businesses, tribal small businesses. Small businesses and agricultural coops that meet the size standard are eligible, as are most private non-profits of any size. Eligible businesses must have been in operation since January 31, 2020, when the public health crisis was announced.
Working Capital Loans (Economic Injury Disaster Loans)
Details on this program begin on page 7 of this this overview from Congress. Louisiana businesses are eligible for Economic Injury Disaster Loans (EIDLs) of up to $2 million, with interest rates of 3.75% for businesses and 2.75% for non-profits, and terms of up to 30 years. The loans provide vital economic support to small businesses to help overcome temporary loss of revenue. The loans may be used to pay fixed debts, payroll, accounts payable and other bills that can't be paid because of the situation around COVID-19. The loans are available to business with fewer than 500 employees. These loans are not forgivable. The application is available through the Small Business Administration. For detailed program information including loan eligibility, criteria, terms, and a step-by-step guide on how to apply, click here.

Small Business Debt Relief for Existing SBA loans
The Small Business Administration (SBA) will defer all loan payments, including principal, interest and fees for six months. Eligible loans include SBA 7(a) (unless made under the PPP), 504, and microloans.
SBA-Approved Lenders in the Capital Region
Banks and Credit Unions in the Capital Region

Hotline for Louisiana Businesses
Louisiana Economic Development has launched a hotline for Louisiana businesses. Companies can call (833) 457-0531 between 8:00 a.m.- 8:00 p.m. or email email@example.com with their questions related to the impact of COVID-19.
CISA's Guidance on Identifying Critical Infrastructure
On March 22, Governor John Bel Edwards issued a Stay-at-Home order for the state of Louisiana, limiting those that will go to work every day to Louisiana citizens in "essential industries" only, as defined by CISA. CISA's guidance on identifying critical infrastructure can be found here, or via this downloadable guide. BRAC also issued this guidance to help regional businesses determine whether they qualify as "essential" for this order. If you closed because of the Governor's Stay At Home order, but aren't sure if your business qualifies as essential, call the Louisiana Department of Economic Development to ask at (833) 457-0531 or via email at email@example.com. There are many businesses allowed to remain open, but must do so following safety protocols.

PPE Donations
Our region is experiencing a shortage of personal protection equipment (PPE) needed by front-line healthcare workers in their COVID-19 response. Of particular need are germicidal wipes, hand sanitizer, surgical masks, procedure masks, N95 masks, gowns and protective drapes, goggles, and latex and non-latex gloves of all sizes. Regional leaders are looking for business assistance in the following ways:
- Businesses with the above-mentioned items available to donate may do so Monday through Friday, 9 – 11 a.m., at 9455 Plank Road. Contact 225-763-4240 or email@example.com for further instruction. This is an initiative organized by the Baton Rouge Health District, and is currently primarily intended for business to business donations. Please make sure to only include clean, boxed, sealed, and unused containers.
- Manufacturers who are interested and able to transition their production to one of the needed items are encouraged to do so. Contact Donnie Miller at firstname.lastname@example.com for guidance.
- Businesses or makers with technical abilities to innovate needed items through 3D printing should contact Stephen Loy with the Louisiana Tech Park at firstname.lastname@example.com.
COVID-19 Government Contracting
The State Procurement website maintains a regularly updated list of open and closed bids. To register as a vendor with the State of Louisiana, click here. During the registration process, you will be able to select all of the commodities that your company is able to provide. The State of Louisiana will be issuing Request for Quotes (RFQs) through the Louisiana Procurement and Contract Network (LaPAC), the on-line electronic bid posting and notification system, for the supplies/services currently needed. LaPAC will automatically send an e-mail notification to all of the vendors registered for that specific commodity. You will then be able to submit your pricing and availability electronically.
The Louisiana Procurement and Technical Assistance Center is available to assist businesses with government contracting. Businesses interested in competing for disaster response and recovery contracts should review this flier for steps to ensure that they are procurement ready. Businesses with existing government contracts seeking an equitable adjustment due to COVID-19 should take the following steps:
- Communicate with your contracting officer (CO), by email for record-keeping, as soon as you think your situation has changed from when your initial contract was negotiated or bid on.
- Partner with your CO to get authority to deliver late and try to negotiate a revised delivery schedule, extension, and/or revised costs. This may occur with subcontractor disruptions necessitating different subs or sourcing.
- If you don't get a response from your CO, email the agency small business representatives for help in getting your CO's attention.
- Keep good records including dates of conversations and names of people you spoke or emailed with.
The Emergency Family and Medical Leave Act (EFMLEA)
EFMLEA expands the existing federal medical leave program. Currently, the program provides for 12 weeks of job-protected leave without pay. The new legislation requires companies under 500 employees to provide 12 weeks of leave with the first 2 weeks unpaid, and the final 10 weeks paid at two-thirds of their regular pay for both part-time and full-time employees in the event an employee needs to care for a child because daycare or school is closed.
Each employee is limited to $200/day to a $10,000 maximum. Employers will receive a tax credit on their portion of Social Security taxes capped at $200/day per employee and $10,000 overall per quarter. Importantly, he Secretary of Labor has the authority to exclude employers with fewer than 50 employees under certain circumstances.

The Emergency Paid Sick Leave Act (EPSLA)
EPSLA applies to only companies with under 500 employees. This new mandate requires companies to pay full wages to employees for up to 2 weeks because of Coronavirus-related leave. The EPSLA applies to both full-time and part-time workers only if the employee is unable to work or telework when:
- The employee is subject to a federal, state, or local quarantine or isolation order related to COVID-19. Generally, payments are capped at $511 per day and $5,110 per employee.
- The employee has been advised by a health care provider to self-quarantine due to concerns related to COVID-19. Generally, payments are capped at $511 per day and $5,110 per employee.
- The employee is experiencing symptoms of COVID-19 and needs to seek a medical diagnosis. Generally, payments are capped at $511 per day and $5,110 per employee.
- The employee is caring for an individual who is subject to an order similar to those set forth in 1 and 2 above. Generally, payments are capped at $200 per day and $2,000 per employee.
- The employee is caring for a son or daughter because school is closed, and the usual child care provider is unavailable due to COVID-19 precautions. Generally, payments are capped at $200 per day and $2,000 per employee.
- The employee experiences a substantially similar condition as specified by the government. Generally, payments are capped at $200 per day and $2,000 per employee.
Like with the EFMLEA, employers will be eligible for tax credits on their Social Security taxes cap at $511/day for the first three types of events and 200/day for the last 3 types of events.

text: Many attempts have been made to explore the relationship between what science and religion have to say about aspects of reality. Some Hindus want to see the Hindu scriptures anticipating developments in science. Some even look for parallels between the way these two ways of seeing the world talk about specific concepts such as time and energy. Other Hindu thinkers would say that religious and scientific views are in fact at loggerheads; if one is right, the other is wrong. Continue reading "Science and Religion – A Hindu Perspective"
