SAN ANTONIO – On the eve of the city council's vote on the FY 2021 budget, proposed amendments to the $2.9 billion document would make small adjustments to areas like housing, health, and small businesses programs.
However, the large-scale "de-funding" of the San Antonio Police Department activists have been calling for remains off the table.
City staff presented $4 million worth of proposed amendments to the city's operating budget and $2.4 million worth of additional capital spending on Wednesday, following dozens of council member requests. However, none of those requests pertained to the San Antonio Police Department, which has a general fund budget that's set to increase next year, largely because of a scheduled pay increase for officers.
District 6 Councilwoman Melissa Cabello Havrda, the chairwoman of the council's Public Safety Committee, briefly said during the online meeting that she felt the council was not doing enough to look at police funding. Otherwise, the big, blue elephant in the room went largely unmentioned.
City Manager Erik Walsh included eliminating police cadet hiring bonuses in his presentation, to the tune of $739,500, as a way to help pay for the proposed budget adjustments. However, the cut appeared unrelated to the months-long calls to "de-fund the police." Instead, Walsh told council members that based on the current strength of the department and academy classes, the bonuses, which were instituted when the council was focused on filling vacancies, were not necessary.
Instead of making large changes to the SAPD budget this year, Walsh has proposed a "deliberate," months-long process to examine the department's functions and consider possible alternatives. However, that process would not be finished until spring 2021.
City officials have also pointed to the current collective bargaining agreement with the San Antonio Police Officers' Association as an avenue for change.
In a tweet-thread on a variety of police-related issues after the meeting Wednesday night, Nirenberg wrote that most of the department's budget is tied to the current police union contract and can't be altered by city action. The rest, he tweeted, "accounts for things like fuel, bodycams, and 653 civilian employees -- including 911 call center operators, mechanics and IT support. Because of the nature of these jobs and services, it's not as easy as it might seem to immediately reallocate or take an axe to this portion of the budget."
An active investigation, that will be referred to the district attorney and ultimately to a grand jury, is being conducted of the officer-involved shooting on Tuesday which happened when police were attempting to serve two arrest warrants for domestic violence.— Mayor Ron | Wear a mask! 😷 (@Ron_Nirenberg) September 16, 2020
The current union contract expires after September 2021, though an evergreen clause could keep it in effect for eight years afterwards if a new agreement isn't reached.
The changes the council is considering in its operating budget are to areas it has focused on as part of the city's fight through the COVID-19 pandemic: housing, health, and small businesses. The largest chunk, $2.2 million, would go toward the city's COVID-19 Emergency Housing Assistance Program, which helps struggling residents pay their rent and other bills.
That money, in conjunction with the $21.9 million the city is already considering adding to the program, could keep payments flowing into mid-December or mid-January, depending on how council decides to adjust the program.
The program currently puts a three-month or $5,000 limit on assistance. While staff have recommended tightening the limit to just one month with only a cash payment for a second month, Mayor Ron Nirenberg asked about doing two months of full assistance and then cash. District 1 Councilman Roberto Trevino has been even more vocal about his opposition to reducing benefits.
District 9 Councilman John Courage and District 10 Councilman Clayton Perry both recommended sending the full $4 million to go toward housing.
"If this is available to us, we need to give it to the people that need the help now because that should be our number one priority, and it is for me. So I am going to say, 'Hey, take all my projects off the list.' I want to support our emergency housing fund and get the people help that are not able to make their rent payments, and get those rent payments to the to the owners, where they can keep the doors open and not have to go through an eviction process," Perry said.
Aside from cutting the hiring bonuses, $3.2 million in extra revenue the city has received since presenting the original budget proposal would help pay for the operating budget amendments. The capital spending amendments would be funded through the $2.4 million the city has available in its capital reserve.
The city council is scheduled to vote on the FY 2021 budget on Thursday, Sep. 17. The new fiscal year begins Oct. 1.

I arrived here in Hohhot, the capital of Inner Mongolia, China, on 12 March 2005 to begin work teaching oral English at Inner Mongolia Medical College. Since many of my friends and family are interested in hearing about my experiences here (or are too polite to say they aren't really interested ;-), I decided the easiest way to share my stories and pictures is to create them as pages on a website, allowing me to e-mail only the URL to people and them to check out as many or as few of the stories and pictures as they wish. I hope these pages will continue to grow in number and will expand to include other parts of China as my time here continues.
Since my story writing and picture sorting must be worked in around my English teaching, Internet business, and, of course, having the adventures I write about, I've put minimal work into formatting the web pages. As a result, the pages are quite simple, but, I hope, interesting and perhaps useful.
Below is a list of the available stories so far. I hope you enjoy them!

Check for slots
Standard configuration of modern netbooks rarely involves more than 2 GB of RAM. This means that to increase the speed of operation of the device, you must install an additional plank which might increase this figure several times.
Not all laptops support memory expansion, and therefore you must verify the possibility of surgery. Take a screwdriver and Unscrew the plastic flap for the straps of RAM. Cover covers part of the hardware device and is intended for replacement of the memory without requiring disassembly of the whole body.
Check the availability of additional slots for memory. If you see another free slot, so the extra RAM is possible. If both slots are occupied, the only option to increase performance would be to buy new memory modules larger volume.
Buying a new strap
Buy a new bar of RAM. For example, it is advisable to buy a device that has 1 GB of RAM, one or more laths on 1 GB. Or if your device is only one slot for RAM, purchase straps instead of 1 GB cost for 2 GB.
When selecting the RAM, pay attention to straps, a clock whose frequency is approximately equal to the same value as pre-installed in a netbook module.
Do not buy the memory, which is many times greater than the preset. A large amount of RAM affects the life of the netbook without charging due to the increase in energy consumption. Also, too much memory may just be not identified by the computer because it exceeded the allowable limit on the amount of RAM.
Before buying it is desirable to take the old RAM module with you to the sellers store component can select the appropriate type of RAM used under the netbook plug.
The process of installation of memory can vary depending on the device type and model of the netbook. Pry off the clips that fix the memory in the slot, and then install the bar so that it is easily entered into the correct slot. After installing the strap clips will automatically lock.
Increasing the amount of RAM will have a positive impact on the performance of the netbook in games and intensive applications.
Attach the previously retrieved the cover, and tighten its bolts. Start the computer and test it. Setting the bar completed.

An energetic, groove-centered variant of jazz for a generation of club-oriented youth, acid jazz as a style originated in London during the mid-'80s, fostered by rare-groove DJs who spun their favorite records, whether they were up-to-par from a jazz standpoint or not.
Britain's hottest current compound, which first jelled about a year ago, is called trip-hop, a clunky name that suggests a rabbit stumbling over a fence.
Easy listening (also known as orchestral pop) is a popular music genre and radio format that was most popular during the 1950s to 1970s. It is related to middle-of-the-road (MOR) music and encompasses instrumental recordings of standards, hit songs and popular non-rock vocals.
Lounge refers to a strain of easy listening music from the '50s and '60s that was based on the lush styles of latter-day swing and big band music.
Unlike many popular genres at the time, funk put more emphasis on the rhythm and groove resulting from the interplay between bass and drums, than the melody, chord progressions or arrangements often found in genres reliant on guitar, piano and vocals.
Jazz-Rap was an attempt to fuse African-American music of the past with a newly dominant form of the present, paying tribute to and reinvigorating the former while expanding the horizons of the latter.
Nu jazz grew out of the combined influences of Jon Hassel's Kiranic trumpet playing and 'fourth world' rhythms, Miles Davis' soft tone and use of ambience on In a Silent Way, and the early 90s intersection of jazz and electronica, particularly trip-hop, dub and downtempo.
Electroswing is a genre of electronic dance music that mixes up electronic styles like house music, and downtempo with swing music

Did Michael Jackson suicide ?
King of pop music, Michael Jackson, died less than two days ago and the first rumors on his suicide appear on the internet as he could have taken too much medicine.
Was he ready for the 50 concerts that was to happen in july 2009 in London in your opinion ? Is this cardiac attack mainly due to stress and the difficulty to prepare a gigantic show at 50 years old or was he conscient about his abuse of medicine these last days ? What do his doctor really know about it ? Sure some people think Michael Jackson has been murdered as well, no doubt that he was surrounded by sharks during his entire life.
It should take several weeks to know if there was too much toxic substances in his corpse, the story just begins and sure we will hear about this tragic death for years in the future.

Michael Jackson's death was definately assisted suicide. Michael Jackson knew that he wasn't up to the comeback tour.
He knew that if he had gone through with it he would have been always remembered as the star who was charged with molestation, who was well past his best, or worse.
Suicide, assisted by his doctor, resulting in his death gave him a degree of pardon for his past and he will be remembered as a genius. And it means his children will become rich from his royalties and they will not have to live with the stigma that would have always been attached to them. And his debts will be cleared.
The doctor's claims about trying and wanting to revive him was well rehearsed.
A not surprising end to his life..!

Michael Jackson did suicide
I think Michael Jackson for certain did not
die a natural death, highly possible its a suicide, very coincidental just before the concert tour was to begin
*bcaa0f (2009-07-06 19:19:03)
just a guy trying to get through
a suicide? fem ta bush! HE WOULD HAVE NEVER DID THAT!! HE HAD TO MUCH HONOR!
*4db30c (2009-07-07 21:36:38)
No. He wanted to go to the ER so he could postpone the concert. He didnt mean to kill himself.

he was not conscient about his abuse of medicine on his last days also had difficulty to prepare a gigantic show (50 concerts in London) at his 40 years old.

He is a legendary singer. I don't believe that he committed a suicide. His Doctor accepted that his negligence was the reason of death. Doctor is now imprisonment for 4 years for his negligence.

Suicide Squad is hands-down one of the most fun books that DC is publishing right now. And Suicide Squad #17 might be the most fun book published this week. Tony Daniel's artwork is popping, especially on Zod, and the sight of him maniacally diving into battle, spewing arrogant banter the whole time, makes my heart sing. If you haven't read it, go do it now.
All-Star was great this week, too. So was Red Hood. The rest ranged from downright awful to just okay, at least in our considered opinions. Do you agree? Disagree? What rose to the top of your stack this week? Let us know in the comments.
All-Star Batman #10
A grand, swashbuckling adventure with a strong emotional core, you couldn't ask for a better beginning to a new arc.

Batgirl and the Birds of Prey #10
Crap story? Check. Bad dialogue? Check. Convenient plots? Check. Whiskey to try and forget the past twenty minutes? Check.

Detective Comics #956
Ultimately, this story is nothing more than a prelude and disappointingly incomplete in and of itself.

Justice League of America #6
Justice League of America continues to spiral into oblivion, and all I can think about is how much I despise writing reviews every other week, and this title is 50% of the reason I feel that way.

Red Hood and the Outlaws #10
Another outstanding outing with the heroes none of us knew we wanted, Red Hood and the Outlaws #10 further develops the surprise hit team of the year.

Supergirl #9
There's nothing wrong with a fun book that isn't grappling with deep dark truths or pushing at the edges stakes-wise, but if it's going to be on the fluffier end of the spectrum, I expect more visually to help bolster the simple plot.

Stretch That Note has announced a range of seven Kontakt 3/4 compatible DruMM modules: one free, and six more that each cost just $8 per module, or $40 for the complete suite.
Choosing the best sampled drum sounds for modern tracks can be extremely challenging, especially if you want them to cut through a busy mix. With this in mind, industry veteran Eddie Bazil has launched Stretch That Note, a new label specialising in Synthesis and Sound Design, along with its first set of products – a range of NI Kontakt Drum Modules.
Each of the seven available DruMM kits contains sixty carefully chosen drum sounds with bags of street character that can be individually or globally warped via a comprehensive engine, along with several sophisticated effect chains that alter Phatness and Crunch, add Vinyl grunge and alter Width. You can therefore quickly and easily create your own unique sounds with very versatile possibilities.
However, the pièce de résistance is the clever use of Mide/Side treatments, polarity inversion and phase cancellation, to allow multiple kits to be layered without suffering from the normal thinning and frequency cancelation problems. Just load up two or more different kits and trigger them simultaneously for some of the biggest drum sounds you've ever heard; almost guaranteed to cut through any mix when required.
Over the years Eddie has programmed new sounds for outfits as diverse as Pet Shop boys, Art Of Noise, Public Enemy and Emu/Ensoniq as well as many others, and his sounds have featured on many chart hits. Now you have the perfect chance to add them to your own tracks.
The DruMM modules for Kontakt are now available to purchase. Sign up at Stretch That Note and receive the first module DruMM free of charge.

About AllNew
AllNew's Achievements
I still make this installers for my clients, and the majority of them don't have an iPhone, just iPods. Also, it would make the installer grow considerably. However, I will remember your suggestion and perhaps I'll add it in future releases. You can always extract my installer and add MobileDeviceSupport. After that, you can repack it to make a new switchless installer. There are instructions on this forums. Thanks. I'm not distributing the installer, I just use it for myself, so no big deal. I just grab the AppleMobileDeviceSupport msi from the corresponding full iTunes version, install it first and then use your installer which is great. The only annoying part is that I still have to download the bloated full iTunes just to extract AppleMobileDeviceSupport from it.
How about including AppleMobileDeviceSupport in the lite installer? I think it's more common that people now have an iPhone than an iPod.
No, it does not start it as per my original post.
Yes, it does install 1 service and while it can be set to Manual, it's not convenient if you have an iPhone and connect it to the computer on a regular basis. When iTunes starts it does NOT start the mobile service automatically like it starts the iPod service. It just complains that the iPhone cannot be managed because the mobile service is not running. So you'd have to start the service manually and then start iTunes or have some bat script that first starts the service and then iTunes. If you use an iPhone on a regular basis I don't think it's a big deal to have the mobile service running at all times or even install the full bloated version of iTunes. I started with QT Lite, iTunes Lite and the mobile services install, but I wish I just installed the full version instead and just disabled a couple of services or set them to Manual.
One more suggestion: rather than deleting the plugins completely, move them to the Optional folder (peer with plug_ins). Yes, the installer will be bigger, but at least the plugins are there for users that need some of them, they can just be moved back into plug_ins, as needed. Or release an Optional.7z file with just the extra plugins. It's a pain to install the full v9 somewhere else just to copy 1-2 plugins that a user may need.
This has previously been brought to my attention. the plugin AcroForm.api does not control this. I have not had time to look into it. pending . . . It sure does. I copied AcroForm.api from a full install of v9 to the lite install folder and fillable forms now work.
Filling out forms doesn't work with this Lite version. It's missing AcroForm.api from C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\plug_ins Could you please release a version that includes AcroForm.api otherwise we cannot work with fillable PDFs. thanks for the excellent work! Update: you can try it on this test pdf file: http://www.thewebjockeys.com/TheWebJockeys...Jockeys_vC5.pdf
I've successfully created a Recode 2 add-on for 184.108.40.206 and 22.214.171.124, but there's an issue with Recode 3 I didn't even know there was a Recode 3 available. How does the old DVDShrink compare to Recode 2 and Recode 3? Is it worth investing in a license for Recode 3 or the free DVDShrink is good enough?
If I have 220.127.116.11 Micro installed, is there a way to just add to it Nero Recode 2 without installing the entire bloatware? If yes, where can I find just Recode for download and how do I install/add it? thanks

The league said in a statement that it follows up anxiously the "deteriorating situations" from which these refugees are suffering.
It emphasized that 500,000 Palestinians are subject to inhuman attacks due to the current conflict there.
The league referred that the refugees at the camp, including children, are the most affected ones, noting that infighting will jeopardize the lives of refugees amid tight blockade imposed on the camp.
The camp suffers from crippling shortages of food, medicine and fuel, it said, adding that about 2,648 Palestinian refugees have been killed so far since Syria's crisis in 2011.
The league stressed that Palestinians are not a party to Syria's current conflict, but they are guests on its territories until they return home.
The league also urged all parties to shoulder their responsibilities and provide aid to the Palestinians. The Palestinian refugee camp of Yarmouk, south of Damascus, has been hit by infighting involving all warring parties at the camp.
President Khoja calls upon the UN and Arab countries to take urgent action to save the residents of Yarmouk from Assad's barrel bombs and ISIS's barbarity.
"ISIS militants broke into the camp days ago, killed and arrested several of its inhabitants who have been under siege for over 700 days," Khoja said. "Despite the crippling siege, regime attempts to storm the camp were met by heroic resistance by our Palestinian-Syrian brothers. However, ISIS's infiltration of the camp has caused exposure to attacks by regime forces and ISIS."
Khoja urges rebel factions operating in southern Damascus and its rural areas to help their partners, who are defending the camp against ISIS and regime forces onslaught. He also calls on humanitarian organizations to expeditiously deliver relief aid and medical supplies to the camp and to secure safe corridors for children, women and the elderly to evacuate the ravaged camp.

Crypto have undergone many price corrections until now in their history
The crypto market has been going through a descending pattern with a sharp decrease in costs starting from the start of this current year.

What is crypto winter?
Digital forms of money have gone through many cost revisions as of not long ago in their set of experiences. There have been many cycles where bears have shown their command over the market. By and large, a bear market is related with the period when costs fall around 30% from all-time highs. Most cryptographic forms of money have fallen more than that starting from the beginning of this current year.

As talked about above, between 2018-2020, Bitcoin lost almost 50% of its reasonable worth yet got back more grounded in November 2021, it its record-breaking high to reach. Crypto winter is only a period like a customary bear market however to an expounded degree.
Notwithstanding, in the expressions of famous writer, P.B.Shelley, "Assuming winter comes, can spring be a long ways behind?"
When does the crypto winter start?
Broad times of crypto winters are normally fuelled by a lot of various elements. The year 2022 has begun with numerous macroeconomic variables, for example, the Federal Reserve climbing the financing costs, influencing the crypto market generally.
Furthermore, the de-fixing of the TerraUSD stablecoin in mid-May has brought the market into a descending twisting from which it has still not recuperated. Despite the fact that BTC has been on a union since early April, it began plunging in mid-May because of the de-fixing of the TerraUSD stablecoin. It tumbled to its least in June in the midst of the Celsius embarrassment stirring things up around town level, which is the most fragile since December 2020. With a progression of occasions, pulling the BTC cost down, the market has been accepting this as an indication of the beginning of crypto winter.
What is the upside of this period?During a buyer market, every single irregular task and digital currencies appear to be in a rocketship to the moon. All bear markets are generally the most reasonable periods for value revelation and rectification. Crypto winters sift through the powerless activities pushing the most creative ones to develop and approve their items. The cryptos that can endure this specific period can arise past their situations after the recovery period of winter.
How should financial backers respond?Crypto winter is an extraordinary time for financial backers searching for a potential chance to buy more digital currencies at storm cellar level costs. In any case, prior to taking any firm choice over money management, it is essential to explore and break down well and afterward decide. During a bear market, everything is by all accounts accessible at a deal. Putting resources into irregular coins in anticipation of outstanding returns may entice. That is, nonetheless, a beautiful beginner choice.
Is crypto winter equivalent to a bear market?
A bear market is a term used to portray an ineffectively performing market; it very well may be stocks, cryptos, or even values. Be that as it may, crypto winter is clients to allude to the crypto market where the cryptos run lower than expected. Most cryptos are impacted during this stage. So financial backers need to make arrangements for an expansive slump during crypto winters.
How to get by in the crypto market during this period? One thing to recall during this time of drawn out value instability is to recollect that plunges are a typical piece of effective money management. Here are a few hints that can assist you with exploring these times.
- Try not to put away cash that you can't stand to lose
- Begin arranging how to get by in the bear market either through DCA or Dollar Cost Averaging.
- It is critical to remain solid and keep away from alarm selling.
- Bear markets are normally quick and angry.

Business to Consumer (B2C): Explanation, Types, Example
B2C, which in simple words means Business to Consumer. In B2C there is a seller/business entity at the one end and the consumers at the other end. The sellers sell their products or services to the customers with the help of the internet through websites. Customers can place their orders for the product of their choice at any time from any place. The seller sells products directly to the customer without any middleman. The buyer is an independent customer. Online shopping is an ideal example of this type. In this process, purchasing-selling is fast and easy. Besides retail selling, B2C includes many services like online banking, transportation, etc. B2C as a business model typically involves a higher volume of clients, but proportionately lower revenue per client.
Determination Of B2C Marketing Channel:
Determining an effective marketing channel or channels depends on the type of B2C business and the consumer. The business needs to first take into account their objectives and the metrics that will be used to monitor progress and results. Understanding where a customer is at and the customer's life cycle may also play a role in which the marketing channel will generate the best outcomes. These steps include customer acquisition conversion and loyalty/advocacy. Marketers need to focus on the channel that the customers and competitors are using frequently.
Difference Between B2B and B2C:
There is a difference between marketing through business and marketing through consumers although you are still selling the product to the person, the experience shows that the difference between two types of markets runs deep.
Also Read: Business to Business (B2B): Explanation, Types, Example
B2B marketing implies the marketing of products and services to a business house that uses the same for further production of goods or supply of services or for general business operations or reselling it to customers. In simple terms a business that operates by selling its products or services to the other business.
B2C marketing implies the combination of promotional strategies and tactics used by a firm to stimulate the masses to buy the product or services offered, for their own consumption. In simple terms, the business operates by selling its products and services to the customers.
Types of B2C Models:
The B2C is a large and complex model. So, let's look at some of the popular types of B2C models:
- Product-based
The product-based B2C business provides the services to the consumers in the physical as well as in online form.
For e.g. the ZARA store provides the products in the physical store as well as the customers can order them online.
- Service-based
The service-based B2C model works exactly like its name. In this, the business provides the services to the customers instead of selling the products.
- Software-based
In the software-based B2C model, the business provides software products to the customers. There are two types of Software-based B2C model
- "Product-focussed" Software-based
Adobe and Microsoft provide software products like editing and the creation of media to the consumers.
- "Service-focussed" Software-based
Amazon prime and Gaana both provide the video and music software's to the consumers.
There are 5 distinct models that B2C companies use to move their products in a digital space:
- Direct sellers
Direct sellers are one of the most common, selling a product directly to consumers. This includes small online businesses as well as large retailers, like Microsoft and Apple, that sell exclusively in-house products.
- Online intermediaries
Online intermediaries don't own the products that are sold on their site, but they put sellers directly in contact with the buyers, and usually profit by taking the cut of the transaction. eBay and Etsy are examples of online intermediaries.
- Advertising based
Advertising based B2C involves a company purchasing advertising space on a platform that receives large volumes of traffic, like YouTube. Targeted advertising uses criteria such as internet searches, content viewed, and demographic to strategically place advertisements in front of a promising customer.
- Community-based
Community-based B2C takes advantage of online, like-minded communities occurring on media platforms, and beyond. Since many of these communities form around a shared interest or a physical location, companies can identify promising leads more easily.
- Fee-based
Fee-based B2C models require payment to access a company's content. Subscription services like Netflix, Hulu, and Lynda are prime examples of this model
Examples of B2C Business Model:
- Amazon
AMAZON is an American electronic company and cloud computing company. Amazon works as an online retailer and provides the services of online purchasing to the customers. Amazon Prime, amazon pay are all the branches of the Amazon and all are the B2C in nature.
- Flipkart
Flipkart is India's biggest shopping app that provides electronics, fashion, furniture, home appliances products to the customers. Flipkart also works as an online retailer and provides online services.

Adventure-dramas are often driven by extensive action sequences and they rarely delve into the psychological motivations of the main character. But the new film The Hunter, helmed by Australian director Daniel Nettheim, successfully balances the title character's intimate, emotional story with a stunning backdrop of the Tasmanian jungle. The movie, which was based on the 1999 novel of the same name by Julia Leigh, captures the mystery, suspense and thriller elements of the hunt while also capturing the hunter's surprising humanity.
The Hunter follows the title character, Martin David (Willem Dafoe), a skilled and ruthless mercenary who's sent into the Tasmanian wilderness to hunt a tiger believed to be extinct. The anonymous company that hired Martin wants the tiger's genetic material, so Martin arrives in Tasmania posing as a scientist.
Martin sets up camp in a broken down farmhouse, and learns the father of the family who lives there has gone missing in the jungle where he'll be working. While Martin is usually a loner, he becomes uncharacteristically close to the family; but while his attachment to the children grows, he's led down a dangerous path to complete his deadly mission.
Recently, Nettheim generously took the time to talk to us and discuss the process of making The Hunter. The director spoke about the process of capturing the unique shots featured in the film, why Dafoe felt compelled to shoot in Tasmania and how the music and Martin's limited backstory fit into the story.
Check it out below.
Question: Why did you capture such a wide space in the wilderness, and then also include the intimate setting of the house where Martin's staying?
Daniel Nettheim: That's always one of the things that always appealed to me about the book and the whole project. You have this whole intimate, human story set against this quite epic backdrop. The story behind Willem's character and the family, that's one part of the intimate story. But the real story is his own internal journey.
So we jumped from pictures of Willem like this (in the intimate setting) to him in the wide open planes. He's then like an insignificant spec. I like that mankind is on this planet, having their petty battles, while nature is this big, indomitable force that stays there forever.
I think as a kid, I remember one of the early films that profoundly affected me was Peter Weir's Picnic at Hanging Rock. The way he depicted this rock as a beautiful force that will stand the test of time, I thought was really amazing. I referred back to that film when we were prepping for The Hunter.
Q: While you were in film school, you worked as a photographer, which showed in the way you captured the characters and the landscape. Did your photography experience help you while you were shooting?
DM: I worked with a really good cinematographer. But I also have strong instincts about framing and composition. They are instincts, because I don't even know the logic that drives them. I can look at a frame, and say, that's telling a story. Or I can look at a frame, and say, that's not telling a story.
The cinematographer and I got along really well. There's a great behind-the-scenes photo of the two of us together. But we did look at a lot of films together. We went back and looked at a lot of new Hollywood films for that wide-screen framing, like Deliverance and The Deer Hunter. We ended up putting together a little book for visual references.
By the time we were on set, we didn't have to talk much. I would be working with the actors, and he would set up the frame. Sometimes I would change it, and sometimes I wouldn't. Composition and frame is always important for me to tell a story.
Q: There were several breathtaking shots in The Hunter; one where Willem was in the forest, and the ray of light was coming down, and the other was where the birds were sweeping down. How were these shots come by?
DM: With the bird shot, when we were down in Tasmania with the main crew and actors, we didn't get a lot of time to shoot those kinds of shots. We did end up going back to Tasmania, me and three guys, without the cast, specifically to get the time lapse with the clouds.
But with the birds, we did get in the main body of the shoot. One day we finished early, and I knew the shot of that particular angle on the mountain that I wanted to get. I knew what time of day the light would come in.
But we ended up running late-we wrapped a little late. We were in the car, just three of us-the camera operator, the DP and myself, and we were driving. We could see the mountain, and I realized we weren't going to get there, to the location to get the perfect light, on time.
At that time, I saw this little dam, and I said, let's stop here. We're not going to get the light, so pull out the camera and tripod. We turn it on, and these birds flew by. At that moment, everything came together and looked amazing.
That shot of Willem, where the helicopter comes around and the light comes through, we knew the time of day that we needed to be shooting to get that kind of light. But it had been cloudy that day, and we only had the helicopter for one day. So we were thinking that we weren't going to get the light. Just when we were coming up to that particular shot, suddenly the cloud cleared at the right time.
Q: Why is it important to keep species like the Tasmanian tiger alive?
DM:Bio-diversity, that's the reason that biologists and conservationists give. Bio-diversity is important, and everything has a place in the ecosystem. But creatures do naturally become extinct not through the hand of people, but through nature. They become extinct for various reasons.
But the tiger was brutally massacred before its time. It was a unique creature. It's not a dog or cat, it's a marsupial most closely related to the kangaroo. It's a noble and unique beast.
Q: Did it really have that poison in it?
DM: That's debatable, there's speculation. It wasn't big enough to kill sheep and drag them away, as speculated. We took a bit of dramatic license by including that speculation. People don't know enough about the creature.
There was a famous attempt to clone it from DNA from preserved specimens, going back to the beginning of the twentieth century. They ultimately decided that the material that they had was not in good enough state to use. Possibly in the future, they can do that.
Q: So how has the film been received in Australia, particularly Tasmania?
DM: This film was well-received in Australia, particularly Tasmania, they loved it. Tasmania is not known for being a great place to distribute an art house film, or independent cinema.
But the state theater in Hobart was the largest venue in the whole country for the film. It played for months longer there than anywhere else. We had a premiere down there, Willem came down. They closed off the main street. No one had seen anything like it. Films never get premiered in Tasmania. (laughs)
So I think there was a lot of local pride. People really relayed that they liked the film, that it depicted the island in a truthful and beautiful way. They really liked the story.
So it was really gratifying, because the Tasmanian government film board put money into the film. It was the first big thing they really invested in, and it paid off.
Q: Willem had said he wanted to make the film because he loves Tasmania. Can you tell us something about that?
DM: Yeah, Willem had never been to Tasmania before. He had worked in Australia before. He remembered that decades ago, touring with this theater group, and going to Victoria, and someone pointing across the water and saying that's Tasmania over there. He remembered that.
When I met with him, and I said that it's all on location in the wilderness, that was an appealing part of the adventure for him. He didn't know Tasmania, but I informed him before we got there, and he really liked it. We were all generously received wherever we went. So he was very happy to come back.
Q: Can you talk about the influence of the music on the story?
DM: Music's always important to me when working on a film. The Bruce Springsteen song was in the very first draft, but it wasn't in the book.
Q: How much was the Bruce Springsteen song?
DM: Well, we could afford it. Obviously, he's a big, well-known artist, so it was one of the big budget items in the film. But it was a two-year negotiation. The producers started talking with his reps before we had the film financed. We had to know how much we needed.
But we constantly thought, if we can't get it, what else can we use in the sequence? We can never come up with anything as good that was right-that sounded right, that was emotionally right for the missing father.
In the end, I don't think Bruce read the script, but I think he did read the scene, and did read the context and gave his permission. It's not permission given lightly.
Q: Was there more back-story for Willem before he goes into the wilderness? Was it a conscious choice not to include so much information?
DM: We made a choice. Like in the book, there's a lot of stuff going on inside his head, including some memories of when he was a kid, that didn't really inform his character in a meaningful way. We made a disciple choice when adapting the book to keep it in the present tense, and not to have flashbacks.
Everything that we learn about this character, we learn from his actions, and what we see him do, other than what people say about him. It wouldn't make logical sense for him to sit down in the pub, and be talking to some guy, saying, hey, when I was a kid. (laughs) He's not someone who wants to reveal stuff about himself.
Likewise, what we learn about the world, and what we want the audience to learn, is through his eyes. Those were discipline choices that we made in the writing. Willem very much supported that. There were moments where we talked about putting bits of back-story in, but they weren't helpful for that narrative and journey.
Q: What are you doing next?
DM: I've been reading scripts, but I haven't decided yet. But it probably won't be about a man alone in the wilderness! But one of the reasons why I loved The Hunter was because I felt that I could contribute something new to world cinema, instead of repeating a familiar story in a familiar genre. I wanted it to be new and surprising, and something that would last, rather than be something disposable.
Q: Did you initiate this project?
DM: Yes, with the producer. We talked about it for a long time, and worked together. He optioned the rights, with me attached as director. It always stayed that way.
Q: Was it difficult to get off the ground?
DM: The hard part was adapting the script. That took about eight years. Not eight years of full-time work, as we were working on other things. But it was always me or someone else working on a draft of the script.
We always knew the casting was going to be critical, that we needed the right character to carry it off. We couldn't send it off to actors before it was ready. But we got to a certain stage where the potential investors were asking, who's playing Martin David, who's playing the hunter? When we could finally turn around and say Willem Dafoe's playing the hunter, people could finally see the film.
That concludes our interview, but we'd like to thank Daniel Nettheim for taking the time to talk to us. Be sure to check out The Hunter when it hits select theaters this Friday, April 6.

Interview with Noel Meylan who shares his vision of the digitisation of SMEs.
Soluware was created in 2006 and moved to the canton of Neuchâtel in February 2020. Soluware is an IT company specialising in 360-degree support for SMEs.
How do you see the evolution of digital tools for SMEs?
At the time of the very first computers, these were used for word processing. Then computers made it possible to do calculations, with Excel for example. On the other hand, communication was done by telephone or fax. Then came email, which made live communication possible.
Microsoft Teams reflects the evolution not only of the tools, but also of the way of working within SMEs. Today in an agile company, the organisation is done by project teams, with a relatively flat hierarchy.
With the use of Teams, all files, communications and appointments are integrated into a single tool. Managing teamwork is really a big organisational change.
How does Soluware differ from other IT companies?
I'll stay with the example of the Teams tool. For many people, it's only a Skype bis, whereas the functionalities are much broader. With Soluware, we bring IT solutions and accompany the organisational change that goes with them. We aim to be the IT department of our customers, who cannot afford a Chief Information Officer (CIO). This function has become extremely important in multinational companies, for example, where we now see that a CIO has to be a member of the management. It is a strategic function. We would like to play the role of external CIO to support SMEs in their IT awareness.
We have been working with Easi in Belgium for 3 years, with whom we share the same philosophy. Easi became part of our capital in 2019.
What do you think of the speed at which companies are digitising?
I think that SME bosses are extremely agile in their minds, as can be seen with the covid19 crisis. In the last six months, companies have had a good three years' worth of digitisation. In my opinion, 90% of SMEs are in the process of equipping themselves with the right tools to work remotely and in teams.
What are Soluware's challenges?
We want to find customers who understand our added value. Our challenge is to make them understand that the IT organisation brings a real potential for agility and productivity and therefore for turnover.
More generally, Soluware is at a turning point, in September we launched the financial management software Adfinity on the French-speaking market. There are perhaps a dozen players in Switzerland who offer this type of software. Our goal is to triple our size by 2025 (ten people today).

Charles Leslie, the amateur who played four times for England on the MCC's tour to Australia in 1882/83, was the first – and so far only – Test cricketer to hail from Montgomeryshire.
Born in Westminster on 8 December 1861, Charles was the son of Henry Leslie, the well-known choral musician who lived with his wife Mary at Bryn Tanat Hall, close to the village of Llansaintffriad-ym-Mechain, situated seven miles south-west of Oswestry and eight miles north of Welshpool, with the Hall being part of the Godolphin Estate which spanned the Mid Wales border and Shropshire.
His father Henry was a keen supporter of cricket and arranged country house matches at Bryn Tanat from 1875 onwards. That summer, the thirteen year-old Charles batted at number three for the Bryn Tanat side against a team representing Penyllan Hall. In July 1876, the teenager also appeared for the Tanat Side Wanderers in their match in Aberystwyth against the Ceredigion Cricket Club.
However, it was at Rugby School where Charles developed his cricketing skills with the all-rounder going on to captain the school's eleven from 1878 until 1880, prior to going up to Oriel College, Oxford where he won Blues from 1881 to 1883 besides representing the University at football and racquets.
Charles also played cricket for Oswestry and made his debut for Shropshire in 1879, before playing for Middlesex from 1881. His success at county and university level led to his selection in the MCC party, led by the Hon. Ivo Bligh, which toured Australia in 1882/82 and regained the Ashes. Charles played in all four Tests, scoring 106 runs and taking 4 wickets with his fast-medium bowling, besides excelling as a fielder at cover point.
After coming down from Oxford, Charles worked in the London area, besides playing for Middlesex until 1886. He subsequently became Managing Director of France, Fenwick and Company, a firm of coal merchants and shipowners in London, before developing business interests in eastern Europe and Russia, In particular, he became Chairman of the Baku Russian Petroleum Company, and from 1908 also served as Chair of the Kyshtym Mining Corporation.
Charles lived at Hertingfordbury in Hertfordshire and died at the age of 59 on 12 February 1921. His great grandson is Matthew Fleming, the former Kent and England all-rounder.

The Beja district is an unknown area for walkers but has a lot to offer. For example, the Rota Vicentina is a well-known walking route of 400 km long. The Fishermen's Trail is an adventurous walking track along the coast with cliffs, lots of sand, fantastic fishing and other paradise spots. No traffic other than walking traffic is allowed there. And do you prefer to see churches, country houses, do you prefer to discover legends and stories of the small villages along old pilgrim roads, then turn on the Historical Way.
The Algarve is Portugal's sunshine coast, boasting endless sand beaches, clear waters and imposing coastal cliffs of sandstone, in colours ranging from yellow to red. But the southwesternmost corner of the European continent offers even more: a hilly and flower-festooned hinterland, an incomparably impressive rocky coastline and contemplative river landscapes are an enticement to long walks.
Portalegre is located on the edge of Serra de São Mamede, a mountainous area with a variety of flora and fauna, part of which has now been designated as a natural park. The city of Portalegre itself is of Roman origin. The north side of the Serra De São Mamede Natural Park is particularly interesting for walkers. Here deciduous forests are regularly interspersed with cultivated land. More to the south the slopes are planted with beautiful and also some rugged pine forests. Even further south, the mountains gradually merge into the rolling Alentejan plain with its montados, a beautiful park-like landscape with scattered cork or holm oaks.

23-year-old electrocuted by laptop charger at his Delhi home
A 23-year-old man was electrocuted on Sunday afternoon while he was working on his laptop at his house in south-east Delhi's Tughlaqabad Extension.
A 23-year-old man was electrocuted on Sunday afternoon while he was working on his laptop at his house in south-east Delhi's Tughlaqabad Extension.
The man, Brijesh Kumar, worked as a manager at an export firm in Faridabad. Brijesh's laptop was charging when the accident took place. It was not clear whether 23-year-old manager was electrocuted because of the charger or the device.
Police said they received information about the incident from Majeedia Hospital in Tughlaqabad around 4 pm. Brijesh' family members had taken him to the hospital.
An investigating officer said a doctor at the Majeedia Hospital told the police that Brijesh had died before he was brought for medical attention.
"Our officers visited the spot and inspected the house. Prima facie, it appears he was using an extension cord to charge his laptop. His hand got caught in it and he was electrocuted. His wife was in shock, so we have not been able to take her statement. We have asked her to say what happened," said a senior police officer.
Police seized the laptop and sent it for forensic examination. They said that contrary to rumours, there was no explosion in the laptop. "There are some marks on his fingers that suggest Brijesh died of electrocution. There seems to be no foul play. His body has been sent for post-mortem. The findings will confirm the cause of death," said Vijay Kumar, additional deputy commissioner of police (South East).
Brijesh lived with his wife and parents at a rented house in Tughlaqabad Extension. The landlord, Om Pal, reportedly stays in Noida, and had visited the family soon after he heard about Brijesh's death. His parents lived on the first floor. The couple had got married on February 26.
Brijesh's last rites were performed on Monday afternoon. The family was in shock and could not recount what had happened. Even the neighbours did not know the exact sequence of events that led to Brijesh's death.
"They family has not eaten since Sunday. All of us are in grief," said a neighbour.
"Brijesh was a nice and humble person. I know the family well, as they have been staying here for a long time," said Habibuddin, who runs a shop near Brijesh's house.

A new wastewater treatment system has saved a Canadian winery $4,000 annually on sewer surcharges and removed as much as 97 percent of biochemical oxygen demand from the winery's wastewater, Storm Water Solutions reports.
Ontario's Cave Spring Winery needed a better filtration system. The Bloom Centre for Sustainability, a nonprofit organization that connects industry with technology providers, connected the winery with EcoEthic. The wastewater treatment company installed a BioGill system (pictured), an above ground, non-submerged bioreactor.
EcoEthic says the technology is helping resorts, tourist parks and industry achieve regulated discharge standards and eliminating sewer use surcharges. BioGill's BOD removal during a treatment cycle can be between 90 percent to 99 percent, depending on the makeup of the waste stream and operating temperature, the company says.
Earlier this week Mitsubishi Electric said it has developed a water treatment technology that enables industrial wastewater and sewage to be recycled on a low-cost basis.

With Which Party Would Crist Caucus?
Charlie Crist just made the Florida Senate race a whole lot more interesting, by announcing he will run as an independent candidate, making it a real three-way race. This will make the election more interesting for political reporters, because it's always more fun to cover a three-horse race than a two-horse race (as it were). But the most interesting question to me is what happens if Crist actually wins and goes to the Senate -- with which party would he caucus?
Now, this assumes a lot of things which may not happen, I fully admit. But assuming Crist does win the election, he'll enter the Senate as an Independent, meaning he can choose which party he will caucus with. And if the election itself proves to be as brutal as it is shaping up to be, it's not outside the realm of possibility that Crist may be so despised by Republicans (and vice versa) that he would consider caucusing with the Democrats. Crist is a fairly moderate Republican, and if he joined the Senate Democrats, he'd likely be called a "Blue Dog" Democrat, since he'd be more conservative than most Democrats.
In the next few days, a lot of parallels will be drawn between Crist's race and the way Joe Lieberman last got elected. Lieberman was challenged from his left, Crist from his right. They both saw the Independent route as viable, and jettisoning their party affiliation as the only way to win the general election, by capturing the moderate middle-of-the-road voters. And they both paid a heavy political price over a photo of them embracing a president of the other party, Crist by appearing onstage (and hugging) Barack Obama, and Lieberman's infamous "kiss" of George W. Bush. Both men inspire seething rage from party regulars for their Independent bid. As I said, there's a lot of these parallels to dig up and trot out.
But the more interesting thing to me is how the two are different. Lieberman, for one, had a lot of support from big Democrats (who knew he'd likely win). The Democratic candidate facing Lieberman didn't get a lot of party support, or a lot of big endorsements -- again, because the safe money was on Lieberman getting re-elected. Crist will have very little such support. The party has already embraced his challenger, Marco Rubio, and this support will become almost unanimous from Republican politicians now. Very few Republican officeholders will continue to support Crist. Plus, pretty much his whole campaign staff just quit, because they would like to work on future Republican campaigns and know they'll be shunned by the party if they stay loyal to Crist.
The second big difference between the two is that Lieberman was already in the Senate, and just running for re-election. Crist is Florida's governor, and will be a freshman senator if elected. What this means is Crist doesn't have any committee assignments currently, since he's not in the Senate yet. So he will be asking for choice committee assignments from whichever party he decides to caucus with. And it's easy to see that Republicans may bear him a grudge when he gets there, and be fairly stingy with what they offer him, committee-wise. Democrats may be more open to giving him a seat on a committee of his liking, one that has more prestige and power than whatever the Republicans offer him. While both parties would have a vested interest in having Crist caucus with them, to boost their overall numbers, Democrats may be more determined to snag Crist, especially if they lose seats overall (as everyone is predicting). Having Crist in their caucus is one more seat they didn't lose, in other words.
Of course, as I said, this is all idle speculation. There's no guarantee Crist is going to win. The race is fairly even, meaning any of the three candidates could walk away a winner. And if all three of them do roughly as good as their polls indicate, whoever wins may only have to get around 35 percent of the vote to do so. Meaning the whole thing is really up in the air. Crist's lack of support from the Republican Party (and, more importantly, party donors) may cripple his chances to run an effective campaign in Florida's expensive media markets. Rubio could stumble along the campaign trail, as well. The Democrat in the race, Kendrick Meek, could benefit from a split vote among normal Republican voters, and walk away with the race. The field truly is wide open at this point.
Crist's move was pretty predictable, to anyone who can read a poll. Crist had virtually no chance to win the Republican primary, but his chances improved dramatically when pitted against the other two in a three-way polling question. And tomorrow is the deadline to file as an Independent in the race, so lots of folks saw this one coming.
Rubio's embrace of the Tea Party will fuel lots of speculation as well, over the relative influence the movement has within the Republican Party. I will actually find it a lot more interesting to see what happens when a Tea Party candidate either loses a primary to a mainstream Republican candidate, or sees that they're going to lose (as Crist did) -- will the Tea Partier at that point go the Independent route? Such a third-party challenge may be much better news to Democratic candidates than what is happening in Florida, because the "spoiler" effect would be so much greater.
Crist, if the polls are right, has a decent shot at winning the general election this November, and arriving in Washington with an "I" next to his name, rather than an "R." Meaning he'd get to choose which team to huddle with. While in normal times, you'd naturally expect him to return to the embrace of the Republican Party, these are not exactly normal times. Republicans, to be blunt, are not in a forgiving mood right now. But then, this was also true with Lieberman, and he was still given all his seniority rights and committee chairs by Democrats after he won his race. It is conceivable that the Senate Republicans are much more concerned about boosting their own numbers than they are about the backlash from the party base they might get by welcoming Crist back into their ranks after a bruising political fight. But Crist, a moderate to begin with, might actually decide when he gets to Washington (if he does, of course) that he'll stay an "I," but caucus as a "D." Stranger things have happened.

Credit Card Interest Calculate – Calculating the interest of a credit card is complicated, that's why it's exceptional left to automation. Still, you ought to comprehend it works due to the fact your credit card APR and balance affect your budget. Your owed interest owed is decided through applying your APR to your day by day average stability all through your billing period.
Here we'll breakdown how interest in a credit card is calculated, and you'll also locate some helpful pointers for how to avoid paying credit card interest altogether.
How Does Credit Card Interest Work?
When you operate your credit card. You're borrowing money from the credit card agency. With the option of repaying the complete borrowed amount by using the due date to your statement or paying a minimum month-to-month charge. Which is deliver to the balance for as long as it stays unpaid.
For each month in which you don't pay the total stability due. You must at the least pay the minimum month-to-month fee. Which includes the interest rate. The APR that credit card agencies fee is often charge on your statement. APR Interest Rate can variety from 12.49% – 25.49% relying on wherein you stay and the credit card you hold.
How to calculate your APR?
To calculate how much interest you'll charge, you'll want to recognize your average everyday balance. The range of days in your billing cycle and your APR.
Let's say you have a credit card and an average daily purchase balance of $2,000 at the end of your 30-day billing cycle. You also have a variable purchase APR of 19.99%.
Here's how to calculate your interest charge:
Divide your APR by the number of days in the year.
0.1999 / 365 = a 0.00055 daily periodic rate
Multiply the daily periodic rate by your average daily balance.
0.00055 x $2,000 = $1.10
Multiply this number by the number of days (30) in your billing cycle.
$1.10 x 30 = $33.00 interest charged for this billing cycle
The math requires some work, but the concept is simple: Carry a balance, and you'll pay interest. The longer you carry the balance the more interest that adds up.
