It's Saturday morning and 13 people are stood round a table with their hands deep in dough. We're here to make and eat bread – crusty wholesome loaves of sourdough delights. But we're also here to discuss ideas around accessibility – how do we make good bread and good food accessible to individuals, to communities, and on a systemic level? We've all gathered at the Hillview Community Centre, home of Riverside Bakery CIC, in Cultenhove, Stirling to begin the discussion.
Nourish Scotland's Food Leadership Programme gathering
Most of the folks in attendance, including myself, are from the first Nourish Scotland's Food Leadership Programme, a week-long residential training course held in July 2015 for imminent 'food leaders' in the Scottish food scene. Farmers, bakers, chefs, activists, educators, and foragers came together to ask "How can we, individually and collectively, help transform the food system in Scotland and beyond?"
We've been organising subsequent gatherings amongst ourselves in different locations and on a variety of topics – peri-urban farming and the Edinburgh Food Belt, farm animals & the food system, and scaling up urban food. This time, it's ideas of accessibility, community, and bread that are being discussed and digested.
The format of the day was to hear from three groups in the local area – Riverside Bakery CIC, Drymen Community Bakery, and Borestone Community Council – who share a common belief in the power and possibilities of good food in building vibrant and cohesive communities. When each had said their piece, we would collectively ponder questions of accessibility that arose from these three groups, hopefully to give each group better insight and practical ideas to take home with them.
Riverside, Drymen & Borestone
Myself and Théo from Riverside Bakery CIC explained that we are a fairly new social enterprise bakery who specialise in slowly fermented, hand-made sourdough bread. We operate with a small-scale, community-minded ethos, we source locally and sustainable ingredients, and focus on socially and environmentally just practices. Our structure is a Community Interest Company (CIC) which operates not-for-personal-profit – all profits are reinvested to realise the social and environmental goals of the Bakery. This means supporting initiatives within Stirlingshire that have a positive effect on our food system – including supporting food education, local food networks, and Scottish grain growing and milling – just to name a few.
Eric from Borestone Community Council – the catchment area for where Riverside Bakery CIC is located – spoke eloquently about the opportunities and challenges that reside in the Borestone area. Borestone is an area of contrasts – owner-occupied housing alongside highly deprived areas, a history of anti-social behaviour alongside an undercurrent of strong community spirit. Covering a large area geographically, Borestone's residents are diverse and varied – no 'one size fits all' approach here. Eric considers Hillview Community Centre as one of the underused jewels of the Borestone community – one that can perhaps realise it's potential in partnership with projects such as Riverside Bakery CIC.
Ruth, Brian, Sarah, Juliana, and Shanté from Drymen Community Bakery led us through their whirlwind adventure as a Community Supported Bakery – from initial idea, to first bake, to big offers on the horizon – in less then a year. Their motivation to bake bread for the Drymen community came from a strong, shared desire for increasing access to, and conversation about, good food. Good food that is nutritious, delicious, sustainably produced, and brings community together. A enthusiast collective of food-loving, social-change driving, people, Drymen Community Bakery is poised for great things in the west of Stirlingshire.
Questions of accessibility & community
The theme of accessibility to good food and the role of community in good food permeated the discussions and questions that followed. How do we effectively communicate cost, price, and value of good food to people? How do we address a common response of "this costs too much!", while taking into account the larger cultural, political, and economic forces that inform these perceptions? What are the roles of Community Supported Bakeries – how do they genuinely integrate and increase accessibility within their community? We kept these in our minds, while asking the two bakeries to voice their questions relating to accessibility.
Riverside: What can we bring?
Specifically, Riverside Bakery CIC wanted to know – what can we bring and what can we give to the surrounding community? This question stems from the belief that to change peoples' perception of worth around good food, you need to build relationships first – which then creates room for discussion.
A common answered emerged: since Hillview Community Centre is an under-used asset in Borestone, could Riverside Bakery bring the community its energy and time to assist with the Centre's revitalisation? With the Bakery as neutral ground, it would firstly be a welcoming social space, and eventually a space to engage with bread, community-led models, and the wider food system. One lady brought up a quote from a friend of ours who works at a Community Garden. When asked what his job entails, I expected him say something about bulbs and compost, pruning and harvesting, direct seeding and mulching. Instead, he said "90% of my job is drinking cups of tea with people". In other words, it's about community – building community through listening, talking, sharing stories, sharing skills and sharing a cuppa. This too will be the first step for Riverside Bakery CIC – share a cuppa (and maybe some bread!) with folks.
Lots of practical actions came up too – ideas for visuals to easily explain complex issues, targeted workshops for children and the elderly, regular 'open bakery' days for curious folks, and communal oven days.
Drymen: How do we communicate?
For Drymen Community Bakery, one question concerned communication. Their bakery was borne from mutual desires to change the food system for the better, in a very practical, hands-on way. Those involved in their bakery have a lot of knowledge about just how far we need to go to make our food system more participatory, more democratic, healthier, and more accessible. In short – they know just how broken the system currently is.
So, their question was how do you effectively communicate a wide breadth and depth of food issues – issues that relate to all elements of how and why you bake? For example, someone in Drymen wants to buy one of the bakeries baguettes. How do you communicate how and why this baguette plays a role in subverting the twisted food paradigm we currently live with? How do you communicate, that by buying this baguette, you are loosening the grip that pervasive multi-national corporations have over every element of our food system?
Of course, this isn't word for word what Drymen Community Bakery is trying to get across, but the point is: how does one translate the idea that small scale can relate to and effect, large scale issues?
We came to the answers for this question in a round-about way. There was recognition that Drymen Community Bakery already has massive community involvement and support that lends itself well to conversations about 'the bigger picture'. Folks agreed, as they have no fixed premises as of yet, the bakery would benefit from more physical presence in the community on a regular basis – such as pop-up shops or attendance at Farmers' Markets or community events. Also, the idea of the Bakery being present in places which are relevant to those in the community you are trying to reach, both in online and in real life. Overall, we agreed that the best communication of these values is in the doing, the action – the values and the messages are inherent in each loaf baked by this collective.
Back to the loaves!
As we came up for air, we went back to our own loaves – remember, we were all making sourdough bread alongside all this chatter! The Pain de Campagne, the loaves that were in the process of creation, had been mixed and kneaded, rested, folded and shaped, rested again, and ready for their firing! Onto the wooden peel, scored with a razor, and into the oven the loaves went, for the better part of an hour, while the group gathered round for closing discussions.
From the minute detail of our bakery-based case studies, we opened the discussion up to a broader focus – what systemic change is necessary for us to reach our goals, and what are practical actions to see this change happen? And, is there a need for a Community Supported Bakery network, and what would this look like? As is often the case with these types of complex questions, there was no one definitive answer to look to, but a diversity of approaches, ideas, and revelations about the food system and our role within it.
This led neatly to our closing thoughts. We took our beautiful loaves out of the oven and had a moment to reflect on what we had taken from the days bread making, questioning, and discussions. What came up again and again from folks was the sentiment that having these discussions helps foster a sense of solidarity, a feeling of being supported, and above all, reassurance. Reassurance that we are doing the right things and are moving in the right direction in our efforts to revolutionise the Scottish food system. We acknowledged that it isn't easy tackling issues of accessibility of good food, effective communication of complex issues, and meaningful integration into a community, and at times we will fail. But having spaces to discuss, learn, and bake with each other makes all the difference. It keeps us inspired, grounded, and motivated. And, of course, well fed!

The first applicants to the NASA astronaut program, competing for a spot on the Mercury project flight crew, were military test pilots. There were only a few requirements for the initial application process which included age and hours logged in flight. A key qualification, however, was a height of under 5'11", since the Mercury spacecraft was small. After rounds of rigorous physical tests and exams, 110 pilot applicants were narrowed down to seven NASA astronauts, later known as the Mercury 7, in April 1959. Among the original seven astronauts was Alan Shepard, a Navy test pilot who became the first American in space.
Training for the Apollo crew was similarly intense. Neil Armstrong, the first man to walk on the Moon, and the other NASA astronauts had to simulate the lunar walk in its entirety. This included picking up rock samples on a fake moonscape and practicing planting the American flag on the Moon's surface, sometimes using a simulator to mimic reduced gravity conditions. The Apollo crew also had to undergo survival training for a variety of climates—including the desert and jungle—in case they crash-landed during their return to Earth.
In the twenty years after the successful Apollo 11 mission in 1969, many other astronauts broke barriers in the NASA training program. In the 1960s, the astronaut training program was limited to white men. In 1983, aerospace engineer and astronaut Guion Stewart Bluford, Jr., became the first African American man in space. Four years later, Sally Ride became the first woman in space, after replying to an ad for the astronaut program in the Stanford University student newspaper. In 1992, aboard the Endeavour shuttle, astronaut Mae Jemison became the first African American women to travel in space. Jemison was inspired to travel to space, she later said, by the character of Lieutenant Uhura on the 1960s television show Star Trek.

A few strategy tips
Rylee (Life, level 69), got left in the Celestian Base Camp after I ported a couple of wizards on the first account to her so they could pick up gardening spells (see previous post). When I logged in last night someone immediately asked to be her friend and then shortly after that asked for help.
I ported her back from her garden to help him with a few quests in the Science Center. For the life of me, I can't figure out how this guy made it to Celestia; unless asking for help and letting his teammates win every battle is his strategy. He didn't have shields or much in healing; he lobbed big damage spells while Tower shields were up so he lost his damage. The rest of the time he cast spells so small they were almost useless at the level of mobs we were fighting. He wasn't equipped with gear appropriate to his level.
It got me thinking about a few tips I'd offer to beginners:
- Always have some heals in your deck and in your Treasure deck. I spent most of one battle healing him and, since he never added any heals to mine, he kept getting defeated. Sprite is my favorite for non-Life wizards since it only uses one pip. Even if you have a pet who can heal, you can't always count on it, so be prepared yourself.
- Start healing before you're in trouble. Especially if you use Sprite, you need a few rounds to get much health back so toss one off every now and then before your health gets dangerously low. You can't count on your team mates necessarily getting the right heal spell in their hand when you need it, so pay attention to health. If your heal spells aren't showing up, discard something and get one through your Treasure Cards.
- When you team up in a battle with wizards you don't know well, add some extra Sprites and shields to your deck and/or Treasure side. It's amazing how many wizards don't come prepared. I spend a lot of time keeping track of the health of my teammates and preventing them from being defeated. Once you've gotten extra minions to fight, you don't want to be losing team mates.
- Check out your opponents before you jump into battle and put shields in your deck that will reduce their damage. If you haven't trained Tower Shield, put some in your Treasure deck. Use training points to get high enough (usually just 2 or 3 points) in a few schools to collect different shields.
- If you're up against monsters who regularly shield, make sure you're prepared for their shields. For Ice opponents I have two main strategies to deal with all those Tower Shields: (1) wand spells; you knock off the shield without using any pips and without losing half the damage from your good spell; (2) for wizards who have over time spells, I put a bunch in the deck; i.e. Poison for Death, Fire Elves for Fire. During the rounds that it's active it keeps popping off those shields. Poison also works to deal with all those Death shields from Life monsters, Fire Elf for all those Fire Shields from Ice creatures. I put up my blades and traps and then, if I need to, I take a few rounds to knock off shields so I don't lose 50-80% of the big damage I've set up.
- While those early level polymorph spells are kind of fun and can be helpful as far as getting extra health, they come with pretty crappy spells for the level of monsters you're fighting by the time you can train polymorph. I think my team mate in this case was probably a child — he kept polymorphing into a Gobbler and he LOVED the fart spells. I sure hope it was a kid… 🙂 The thing is, the damage spells are way too small for, say, the Hydro-Mechs. Make sure you've got some damage spells that are appropriate to the health levels of your opponents. With this team mate, in spite of using lots of pips on healing him, I also had to keep garnering the pips to lob big damage because he didn't help me with that either.
- There's plenty of great gear available for gold in the Bazaar. Every five levels–at least–check the Bazaar and see if you can get better gear. Some types get better every five levels, some types more like every ten. As you move higher you can also luck into crafted gear being sold that often is odd levels like 33 or 54.
A lot of this advice is especially for wizards under level 50. When you get to level 50 and beyond, there's a lot you can do with shielding through your gear. You can also add tons of health. Once you get there, some of this advice is less important but I've been saved from defeat against some tricky bosses by always having the heal cards and shields. I can always discard if I'm clearly not needing them, but sometimes they make the difference between victory and defeat.

What to Look For:
Most of us have been in the middle of a dental appointment that we couldn't wait to get out of. It is often difficult to find just the right dentist, one that runs on time, is gentle but thorough, takes the time to explain your options, does quality work, is trustworthy, makes you feel comfortable in the chair, and cares about your concerns. Sometimes we go through several dentists before we find the one that really fits. What are some things you can do to find the right dentist?
As a first step, go to maps.google.com and search for dentists near your home or office. Click on the practice's website to read more about the dentist and practice. What are some things you should look for?
1.) How long the dentist has been in practice.
2.) What continuing education courses they have completed since dental school.
3.) What procedures they offer and how much experience they have with those procedures.
4.) Before and after pictures of their work.
5.) Check for testimonials. You might also find recommendations on sites such as dex or yellowpages online, yahoo, yelp and others.
The best way to find out if you are going to like a certain office is to try them out. Once you've narrowed it down to two or three, call the office to see if they offer a free consultation. This is great opportunity to be a secret spy. Pay attention to the friendliness of the receptionist, the ease of making the appointment, the waiting time in the reception area, the atmosphere of the office, the cleanliness of the operatory, the professionalism of the staff, etc.
During the consultation interview the dentist. If you are interested in a certain procedure ask them how many they have performed, if any of the restorations have failed, what materials they use and why, and if there is a warranty on their work.
Get a feel for if the dentist is truly interested in your health by the questions they ask and the time spent. Did they offer more than one treatment option? If a dentist performs a thorough consultation, they will probably also be thorough with the dental work.
You should find out how much the procedure would cost, but keep in mind that you usually get what you pay for. Not all dental materials are the same so make sure you are comparing apples to apples.
Ask the staff how they feel about working for the doctor. A lot of times you can determine if the dentist is honest, by the way the staff members talk about him.
It is extremely important that you find a dentist that you trust. It can be expensive and usually difficult to redo dental work that you are not happy with. Do yourself a favor and do a little research up front. It could save you a lot of time and headache down the road.
Our office:
At Victory Dental, we want you to feel comfortable and welcome in our office. We offer a full range of dental procedures. Our website offers educational videos, a list of services we provide, and even gives you a basic price break down for some dental treatments.

Tesco has identified private equity firm MBK Partners as the preferred bidder to buy its South Korean arm, Reuters is reporting.
The troubled supermarket has been looking to offload Homeplus, which is valued at around $6bn (£3.9bn), as part of a wider attempt to bolster its bottom line. Two months ago it held a beauty parade for five private equity firms, including US-based KKR and Carlyle Group.
It received three separate binding bids in August, including ones from MBK as well as both KKR - together with Affinity Equity Partners - and Carlyle.
The newswire cites two sources "with direct knowledge of the matter". Spokespeople for both Tescos and MBK declined to comment.
Tesco's share price opened up, but fell during early morning trading.

Extensive work remains to be done to increase female representation in Cayman Islands politics and across the British Commonwealth of Nations, according to post-election analysis by the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association.
Three of the 19 members of the Cayman Islands Legislative Assembly are female.
Speaking on the floor of the Legislative Assembly Thursday, Commonwealth Parliamentary Association Secretary-General Akbar Khan highlighted the political inroads made by pioneering Caymanian women like Sybil McLaughlin, the Caribbean's first female speaker of the house.
"Five women speakers on since Sybil McLaughlin, we see a disappointing underrepresentation now of women in the Legislative Assembly. Although you had the largest number of women standing for election, this only made up 26 percent of all candidates," Mr. Khan said during the first day of the Cayman Islands Post Election Seminar.
"There therefore remains an enormous amount of work to be done to reflect on how we can increase participation of women in the legislative chamber."
The Cayman Islands does not stand alone in its political under-representation of women, Mr. Khan said. Despite notable improvements over the past 20 years, female representation in parliaments worldwide stands at 22 percent. Across the Commonwealth, only 18 percent of parliamentarians are women.
He said several Caribbean nations, including Grenada, Guyana and Trinidad and Tobago, have reached the recommended goal of 30 percent female representation established by Commonwealth heads of government in 1997.
"This is a floor, not a ceiling. Only a number of the branches in this region have managed to reach 30 percent," Mr. Khan said.
Speaker of the House McKeeva Bush recalled the difficulty to establish the Commonwealth Women Parliamentarians network to support elected women.
"It was not easy to get the acceptance to form the CWP. Many opposed it, including many women who thought there was no need for it," Mr. Bush said.
When women run for office, they must still overcome the hurdle of election, Mr. Bush added.
A number of barriers stand in the way of female candidates, including issues of public perception, Mr. Khan said.
"We must look at the way media represents women. In some of our Commonwealth countries, the way media portrays a woman representative can be very negative at times compared to the way it portrays a male representative. That may have a chilling effect on women standing for election who feel they do not want to expose themselves to unjustified criticism based on gender," Mr. Khan said.
Looking at the broader picture of the 2017 election, Mr. Khan praised the Cayman Islands for its commitment to democracy. The number of registered voters in the islands increased from 18,492 in 2013 to 21,227 in 2017.
"The increased turnout in the recent elections clearly demonstrates the commitment of the Cayman Islands to nurture democratic values and standards," Mr. Khan said.
As public scrutiny on public officials grows, gender representation will be increasingly important to ensure public confidence.
"This not only ensures participatory decision-making, but it engenders legitimacy and public confidence in our democratic institutions. Without gender equality, greater inclusion and diversity, our democracy is incomplete," Mr. Khan said.
Speaking in place of Premier Alden McLaughlin, Minister Roy McTaggart emphasized the educational importance of the Post-Election Seminar for legislative members.
"We have enough expertise here to get good lessons in what are essentially continuing professional education for the more senior MLAs," Mr. McTaggart said.
"Nothing much can be learned if we are not open-minded, attentive and participatory. And as I have mentioned, there is much to be learned during these two short yet packed seminar days."
The Commonwealth Parliamentary Association will host students at the Town Hall in George Town Friday from 3:30-5 p.m. The event, hosted by the secretary-general, will provide students the opportunity to discuss democracy and meet local MLAs.

Author: Qu Li Li source: China business network
Editor's Press/On the one hand is the strong supervision of tokens and ICOs in China, on the other hand, it is the technical struggle of block chains to seize the commanding heights of future commerce and technology. It can be said that the development of domestic block chains is now in the "chaotic" stage.
However, the future significance of block chains is obvious. It is called the Fourth Industrial Revolution, or even a major change in production relations. It marks the advent of the era of distributed commerce and opens a new world of data value. Whether or not to take the lead in the block chain technology determines a country, an enterprise's right to speak and its position in the future, which is why many countries and regions continue to provide a variety of preferential and convenient policies for the block chain industry.
The latest news shows that Hainan has officially granted a license for the first block chain industry pilot area in China, and the mayor of Seoul, South Korea, has announced a five-year plan to promote the block chain industry. Many big companies have gone to great lengths to develop block chains, and recently Alibaba filed patent applications for block chains that allow "administrative intervention".
So, how do we see the technology of block chain? How to understand the business world that the block chain will change? How to interpret the technology of block chain presentation and its changing business mode? The reporter from China Business Daily interviewed a number of people in the industry to discuss some key issues related to the block chain.
New ecosystem
New problems are prerequisites for the birth of block chains.
The development of the Internet economy is bringing new embarrassment and problems.
Back in 2014, IBM concluded in its Internet of Things white paper, Device Democracy, that when the number of devices connected online reached 100 billion by 2050, neither the communication bandwidth nor the central database would be able to transmit, store, and process this equivalent amount of data, and the identity of this quantum device. Authentication is also unmanageable by existing technology.
Moreover, in April 2018, the European Union formally implemented the GDP R Act aimed at protecting personal data in response to the growing number of innovations in business models based on user data, which put the contradiction between Internet economic model innovation and user privacy of personal data on the historical agenda. However, behind the balanced protection of the GDP R Act, it is still difficult to fundamentally solve the problem of improper use of personal data privacy.
At the same time, Uber, Airbnb and Task Rabbit have shown the charm of a shared economy, but according to Don Tapscott, the father of the digital economy, and his son Alex Tapscott, who co-authored Block Chain Revolution, most of these companies are actually aggregators of service by acting as intermediaries. The aggregation and sale of services can only be regarded as aggregated economies rather than shared economies. More importantly, homeowners on the world-renowned residential platform Airbnb, for example, receive only a fraction of the value they create, and each transaction takes a long time to settle. More worrisome is that Airbnb may store data to achieve other economic values, and the privacy of landlords and customers is not guaranteed.
It can be said that data tampering, user privacy and value allocation issues have been accompanied by a generation of innovative Internet companies to explore, such as shadow, criticized. All of this is a prerequisite for the birth of block chains. Block chains are not only the most elegant solution for the hundreds of billions of device-level Internet of Things, but also the best technical support for a truly shared economy and society in which ownership and usufruct are separated. Block chains are also likely to be the best technical support for the value of personal data. As for the right and trading mode, block chain will also open a new era of "consumption is investment".
Talking about the value of the data released by the block chain, Tan Yi, founder of BAIC, formerly known as the China version of IOTA, said: "The block chain reshapes a new productivity relationship, allowing consumers to act as party A to subvert and redistribute the original interests of shareholders, which is what the block chain brings. The magic. "
Gu Qinhua, chairman of Shenzhen Zhongchuang Artificial Intelligence Technology Co., Ltd, told China Business News: "Block chain technology is actually the technical basis for restructuring the business model, but under the new productivity relationship, the model of value creation has also changed."
Wei Wei, a professor of management at HSBC Business School, Peking University, also pointed out: "When designing a business from the perspective of block chains, it is no longer the traditional way to think about value creation from the boundary of the business, but the value creation from the boundary of the ecosystem. So it is no longer a pure enterprise, but an ecological system.
So, how to understand the core value of the block chain, how to re-discover the real market demand of the block chain in the market speculation fog, how to create a new business model based on future demand?
Core value
From logistics to information flow to value stream
Tracing back to the track of the human technological revolution, from the logistics technology of automobiles, planes and ships to the information flow technology based on Internet technology, human society is entering a digital era. However, when a large number of value carriers are digitized, how do these digital values advance? Row exchange, transfer and transfer will become a problem, and block chain is just a solution to the problem of value flow transmission, which is an important reason for block chain to be highly concerned.
Xiao Feng, vice chairman and executive director of China Wanxiang Holding Co., Ltd., founder of Wanxiang Block Chain Laboratory, said: "We have moved from the information Internet era to the value of the Internet era, the Internet is becoming the infrastructure of all walks of life. As the second generation Internet, Block Chain technology is the same important value transfer protocol as Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) in Internet TCP / IP structure. In other words, HTTP and Block Chain Value Transfer Protocol (BLOCK CHAIN) are the two core protocols in Internet application protocol.
Xiao Feng is also the partner of distributed capital, the largest block chain investment fund in China. As the earliest entrepreneur to study and distribute the block chain in China, he thinks: "Because of the information Internet, human society has undergone tremendous changes, and social welfare has increased greatly; because of the mutual value. Networking will also usher in a more perfect revolution in human society.
The premise of this revolution is to confirm the value of information. Zhou Sha, founder of the well-known block chain team in China, thinks, "If the Internet of Things does not involve the ownership of information, pricing of information, and exchange of information, then it may not work in the future, and everyone can"peep"all the information. In the Internet of Things, the world's data is stored through hash functions, and there are price tags, anyone who wants to see the information must pay the owner of the information, which is a new economic model.
In Zhou Sha's opinion, the Internet of Things is one of the biggest application scenarios of block chain at present, but the essence of the Internet of Things is to put the terminal information to the center for large data analysis, so there are some problems in obtaining information, such as the cost of information acquisition, the price of information itself, the ownership of information and so on. Wait.
"For example, Gree uses the refrigerator as a digger, feeding back information (such as daily egg demand) to related businesses (such as chicken farms) for fees. There is the problem of attribution of information in this process. Users believe that such information is their own, should be I charge each other, not the other way I charge. Or we can't take information away for free.
Not only Gree, but also in Guiyang Data Exchange and more data platforms, the C-end users'contribution to data is very sensitive. Unless the users themselves are willing, the processing, processing, trading and exchange of these data have legal risks and hidden dangers in practice.
Therefore, although the data information is valuable, it needs to be weighted before the exchange and transmission of information. In other words, how to price these personal information becomes very important, and the application of Token has to be mentioned in this respect.
To be exact, Token is a proof of rights and interests, it appears with the sharing economy. In the sharing economy era, people pay attention not to the ownership but to the right to use, and the right to use must have a warrant, Token is such a warrant.
Xiao Feng said: "Despite the diversity of specific forms of distributed business model, at this early stage, we have not exhausted capacity. But they all have a common trait: light ownership, reuse of the right to use, or even no ownership, only the right to use.
However, due to the boom in speculative warrants in 2017, the price growth of warrants is heavily dependent on capital speculation, leading to seven ministries and commissions have jointly issued a ban on ICO, which makes the term Token more sensitive, but in the area of block chains, Token can not be avoided, and Token in the sense of block chains to return to the true source. Depending on the rise of the use of class warrants in the corresponding application scenario.
In Zhou Sha's view, "Token's change in block chain applications can be understood in two ways: First, Token adds interchangeable, measurable performance to user applications. A lot of information is not measurable, but it can be measured with money when Token is added to the application on the block chain. Second, the definition rules of traditional applications of the Generation Internet are often defined by programmers, but when Token is added, the financial attributes of Token can be defined. Like an "invisible hand" in financial markets that drives stock prices to change, Token is like an invisible hand. The rules no longer need to be pre-defined by programmers, but allow the vast majority of Token users to determine their direction of development in a profit-seeking manner.
Similarly, if Gliton pays Tokens every time Gliton extracts information, users can use them to trade or convert them into cash. This way itself also achieves information stratification. In addition, the price of information depends on the consumer itself, such as the level of income, occupation and so on. These information determine the pricing of information on Token.
Design mechanism
Re discovering the real needs of block chaining
In fact, people have to consider whether the block chain is a technology that will meet the needs of the public in the future, such as search, information transmission, portal news, social networking, e-commerce, etc. If it is based on meeting such needs, the block chain technology seems to be out of line with the times, but has become a retrogression of technological means. Because block chains slow down search, information transmission, social networking, e-commerce, games and so on, they consume more electricity, time, and environment costs.
It is precisely because the transfer of value stream is more of a future-oriented demand, which is why the hot block chain is essentially a group of profit-seeking pseudo-demand created. So, where is the real demand point of the block chain?

The Facts Why You will Need to Have a Deterrent Move Towards Technical Surveillance Countermeasures, TSCM
In most cases, corporations or individuals will only think of bringing in the professionals in Technical Surveillance Countermeasures when they have had a very strong feeling of eavesdropping. It is indeed undeniable that there is a lot of wisdom to have established your reservations, you must as well be aware of the fact that this is a decision that is going to prove to be quite dear to you in the long run all the same. The fact is that every second an eavesdropper has access to your information is quite a benefit to them and one that is proving costly to you by and by.
This is as such a pointer to the fact that the more the time a spy has in your organization the more the chance they have to gather as much information that may be so sensitive and as such use the same to cause you so serious damages that may but prove irreparable in effect. The common delays by the executives to hire the services of the Technical Surveillance Countermeasures, TSCM, companies is never without reason and some of them are as we have mentioned below.
One of the reasons is often the reason of fear playing out and as such see the executives delaying in hiring a professional in Technical Surveillance Countermeasures. This fear may stem from the aspect of the fact that the employees or the company competitors may have wind about the company's or executive being vulnerable to an aspect of illegal eavesdropping. It is as well often the case that there will be these cases of delays in making these decisions by the executives as a result of the fact that they will often require authorization from the corporate direction and the financial decision makers before they proceed with the move or decision.
The other reason we must acknowledge in so far as this need goes, to hire or employ the TSCM service providers by the executives delayed most times, is as well the fact that by having them brought on board, there will be an impact of a perception of the executives by the workmates and staff where they will be deemed as being paranoid. In spite of all these particular reasons behind the delays in taking action against illegal eavesdropping in your organization, the fact is that the risks it does portend to your organization will not just let loose any soon and as such with your sustained delay in taking action, you are just opening gates to some serious consequences to your organization and or your life and career as an executive.

"This proposal mirrors past proposals that have run into a buzzsaw of state opposition", David Hayes, who was the Interior Department's deputy secretary and COO during periods of the Clinton and Obama administrations, told Inside Climate News, commenting on the initial draft plan proposal. Mark Warner, D-Va., called Trump's plan "a complete non-starter".
In the shorter term, Cooper and other democrats face an uphill battle to convince Zinke to exempt North Carolina from the Trump Administration's drilling plan.
The senator said the change appeared to be politically motivated.
"The secretary has said since day one that he is interested in the local voice".
The announcement came almost a year after President Donald Trump ordered the Interior Department to examine President Barack Obama's five-year offshore drilling plan.
"In this case Governor Deal can learn from our neighbors and send a clear message against drilling off Georgia coasts", she said.
Carter, Isakson and several other Georgia Republicans signed onto House and Senate letters to Zinke last summer - when the administration's previous offshore leasing program was limited to the Gulf of Mexico and a small area off the coast of Alaska - encouraging him to "carefully review" other areas of the country "to ensure that opportunities are not missed".
CYNICISM HAS always been a part of politics, but rarely are politicians so brazen and self-serving as President Trump and his interior secretary, Ryan Zinke, have been over the past week.
Zinke said Tuesday that "Florida is obviously unique" and that the decision to remove the state came after meetings and discussion with Scott. In an interview, California Attorney General Xavier Becerra said that the standards Zinke applied to Florida - the importance of tourism and coastal industries - were "standards that California can meet".More news: Bitcoin falls after threat of ban from South Korea

More news: Ewan McGregor talks Obi-Wan Kenobi Star Wars spin-off — Golden Globes
In Oregon, Democratic Gov. Kate Brown took to Twitter to ask Zinke for relief.
And Florida is where Trump has a winter home in Palm Beach.
Keating said a Nelson-Scott contest for a critical Senate seat in a state won by President Donald Trump would feature "highly-loaded" campaign coffers.
Northam's letter asked "that the same exemption be made for the Commonwealth of Virginia".
Fearing for his own political future in a divided congressional district, Representative Lee Zeldin, an early Trump supporter, quickly distanced himself from the offshore oil decision after it was announced. All four members of Maine's congressional delegation are opposed to offshore drilling near ME too.
"Is it because the governor of Florida is a Republican and the Virginia governor and governor-elect are Democrats?" "This is good policy for Florida". Atlantic and Pacific coast governors protested, but only one - Republican Rick Scott of Florida - was granted a private meeting with Zinke. The move was widely anticipated, at least since Ryan Zinke, a Montana congressman, climate change skeptic, and oil pipeline company board member, was appointed secretary of the interior a year ago.
Governor Roy Cooper is asking the Trump administration to exempt North Carolina from a plan to open more coastal waters to offshore oil drilling.
Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) said in a statement Wednesday that the drilling "would have been disastrous to Florida's economy, the environment, and, most importantly, to the readiness of America's armed forces".

So, here's the update:
I did a little bit better over the weekend, but still ended up ravenous every day around 2pm. Not cool.
I'm typically doing well during the days at work! I did just eat a granola bar which totally breaks my fast early, and I've gotta tell you…I don't super care. Hahaha.
I only lost a few ounces this week, which is fair since when I did get super hungry on the weekend I did end up eating a lot earlier, which typically meant actually using my 8 hours to eat, which made it a lot easier to go over my calorie limit.
I'm finally ready to start exercising! But not in a super intense way. I always hate how when you try to start exercising that's the one fact that everyone remembers about you and feels the need to constantly ask you about. Seriously, I'm walking to the bathroom at work and get stopped to be asked about how my workouts are going because I happened to share that I'm trying to work out.
And I'm just waiting to pee like:
But it is what it is, and I tell you what if I ever have any advice for someone, its to not mention to someone very well meaning and nice, but so so random, that you want to start working out. It doesn't matter if she was calmly talking about it first, she will make you want to use a bathroom on another floor.
If you give a mouse a cookie, am I right?
Also, an update to feeling depressed: It passed! I didn't feel like wallowing in my hunger and sadness, so I painted my fiance's bathroom for the next 2 days, which really worked out my depression. Also, Netflix comedies and lots of singing along to Pandora.
So there you have it. Not much lost this week, but I am noticing it getting easier to just drink water during the day, but mainly at work.
Hope you have a good day, happy Thursday!

You may be looking for the character, Mischief.
Mischief is the fourth episode of season 3 of The Dumping Ground. It was broadcast on 30 January 2015 at 5:30pm on the CBBC Channel and CBBC HD.
Bailey gets into a fight with homeless man. After the man dies, Bailey decides to take the dog back to Ashdene Ridge, feeling responsible for the owner's death. Will Bailey be allowed to keep him?
Bailey and Jody are playing football in town but Bailey is being mean to Jody so she goes home. Bailey continues to dribble the ball down the street, but a black and white dog steals the ball from Bailey. The dog runs back to his owner, Malcolm Malone, a homeless man, with Bailey in pursuit. Malcom tries to tell Bailey that he should share more, or he'll have no friends. Bailey then calls Malcolm a loser, and tries to snatch the football off of him. The two squabble over the ball, until Bailey pushes Malcolm over. He falls on his back, and groans in pain, while Bailey takes the ball and runs off in fear.
The next day, Bailey sets off to go into town again to practice his football skills. Meanwhile, the kids are served another meal of vegetables, as they have been growing vegetables in their vegetable patch and need to eat their produce. May-Li decides to put some of the vegetables outside for the neighbours to take, which gives Tyler and Jody a cunning plan.
While walking in town, Bailey hears a dog barking and finds he is close to the bench where Malcom sat everyday. Malcom is not there while the dog is, and the bench is filled with flowers spelling out "R.I.P" and a donations box. Clive Jones, another homeless man and a friend of Malcom's explains that Malcom died. Bailey believes that he was the one who killed Malcom, while Clive believes that he simply collapsed. Clive then asks if Bailey could look after the dog, as if he isn't found a home after a week then the dog would be put down. Clive mentions that "a dog is the best friend you could have", and Bailey considers the option of keeping the dog.
Meanwhile, Jody, Tyler, Floss, Harry and Tee are setting up a table in the front garden full of their home grown produce. Jody and Tyler decide on high prices for their vegetables. Soon a gathering of customers is buying food from the children, and Jody pays Harry and Floss to help them sell the food. Bailey arrives back at the house with the dog, who is called Mischief. However, Mischief steals one of the vegetables from Jody and Tyler's stall and runs around the house to the back garden, where Johnny and Ryan are doing laundry. Ryan appears to be fearful of Mischief, attempting to throw clothes at him to keep him away. May-Li comes to the garden with Mike, Carmen and Tee, where May-Li is angry at Bailey for bringing a dog home.
Bailey decides to keep Mischief in his room for the time being. He goes downstairs, where he hears May-Li say that he's not allowed to keep Mischief. Bailey tells May-Li and Mike that Mischief's owner died and Bailey's trying to find the dog a new home. Mike agrees with May-Li, but the other kids defend Bailey, saying that they let Frank keep Shadow, a three-legged dog which Lily took in. Mike considers this, but May-Li is still adamant on not letting Mischief stay. Ryan is scared at the idea of Mischief staying at Ashdene Ridge.
Ryan makes a trail of crisps from Carmen's bed to Bailey's room, and let's Mischief out. Mischief then follows the trail of crisps and destroys one of Carmen's cushions. Kazima, who shares a room with Carmen, notices that none of her possessions are broken, and Mike decides that Mischief needs to go in a dog's home by the end of the day, even though Bailey is certain he shut the door of his bedroom properly.
Elsewhere, Jody and Tyler have sold all of the vegetables, but Tyler wants to continue to sell produce. He plans to buy more vegetables from supermarkets and then sell them as their own. In the back garden, Bailey doesn't want to say goodbye to Mischief, so he locks the dog in the shed with food and water to hide him from the others.
The next morning, Bailey unlocks the shed and takes Mischief out for a walk. However, Mike overhears Bailey talking to Mischief and showing the dog affection, and is annoyed that Bailey hadn't given the dog away. In the front garden, Tyler has been to the supermarket and brought lots of vegetables. He has also brought back a large packet of eggs, and the four friend officially start the Ashdene Ridge Farm Shop. They have also enlisted the help of Carmen, who reads magazines outside Ashdene Ridge and rings a bell when May-Li approaches the shop. The children then hide the eggs and switch the sign with prices on to which which says the vegetables are free.
Later, Bailey returns from his walk with Mischief. As he is locking Mischief in the shed, he is interrupted by Mike. Mike tries to reason with Bailey that looking after the dog is not his problem, and that he didn't look after the home's pet snake (see Scary Beasts (episode)). Bailey still believes that looking after Mischief is his responsibility as Bailey was the reason that Malcom died, and that dogs are more fun than snakes. Mike then makes a deal with Bailey - if Bailey can train Mischief to be well-behaved in three days, then Mike will allow the dog to stay.
Training the dog proves to be hard work for Bailey, as although Mischief is good at finding hidden items, he often gets distracted by the smell of the rubbish bins. Bailey tries to research online how to make Mischief 'sit', but is mocked by Johnny. He tries to practice outside and is watched by Toni and Billie, who find Bailey trying to train Mischief amusing. Mischief refuses to listen to Bailey, and the twins come up with a plan to help Bailey.
Billie reads out the instructions on how to train a dog to Bailey, while Bailey shows affection to Mischief. Mike and May-Li watch from afar, where Mike is surprised at Bailey showing an interest in anything but football, while May-Li believes that keeping a dog is a bad idea. She says that the kids won't put the work into looking after Mischief, to which Mike agrees. Toni then hands them both an invitation inviting them to a dog show the next day, held by Bailey and Mischief.
The next day, all of the residents (except Floss, Harry, Tyler and Jody, who are managing the farm shop) come to the garden to watch Bailey and Mischief perform. Bailey presents Mischief with a collar giving Mischief's name and the address of Ashdene Ridge. The show then starts with Mischief jumping through a hoop, held by Toni and Billie. Around the front of the house, Tyler and Harry are approached by an angry customer of their shop who accuses them of fraud, as Tyler accidentally brought eggs which were not stamped as being free-range. The four then realise that they'd need to raise their own chickens to get un-stamped eggs, and they decide to buy a chicken off of Mike's mechanic. They go and watch the show, where Bailey makes Mischief weave in and out of a line of buckets and then jump over a pice of string, held by the twins. All of the residents are enthusiastic about Mischief's performance, except Ryan.
Bailey brings Mischief over to Mike once the show is over, and Mischief sits, listening to Bailey's instructions. Mike slaps his knee as he is in awe of Mischief's behaviour, and the dog places his paw over Mike's hand, to Mike's amazement. Mike suddenly grows close to Mischief and begs May-Li to let the dog stay, and although May-Li seems more fond of the dog, she still says that there are no promises.
Mike and May-Li make up a list of pros and cons, while Tyler and Jody sneak past them carrying lots of fishing nets. In the garden, Ryan unlocks the shed doors and cuts off Mischief's collar, before making a trail of chicken for Mischief to follow. Ryan then throws some chicken over the fence, and Mischief runs after it.
The next morning, Tyler is woken to the sound of a rooster. Bailey opens the doors of the shed to find that Mischief has been replaced by a rooster, at which point Jody and Tyler run to the rooster to try and quieten it down. Jody says that the shed was empty when they put the rooster in it, and that they thought that Mischief was with Bailey. Bailey runs off to look for Mischief, who is not inside the house as Bailey discovers.
Meanwhile, Floss, Harry, Jody and Tyler are trying to quieten down the rooster by playing loud hip-hop music. When Mike and May-Li come to investigate the noise, Tyler starts doing star-jumps outside of the shed and claims to be starting a fitness routine, and that the rooster noise is his mobile phone ringtone.
Tee posts a picture of Mischief to a website for lost dogs, and the dog is soon found by a member of the public on a nearby street. Bailey finds the dog around that area, but as he calls Mischief over, the dog runs across a road and is hit by a car. Mike meets Bailey at the vets, who shares that Mischief is in shock and has internal bleeding. Mike says that the home doesn't have enough money to pay for Mischief's vet bill, and Bailey must say goodbye to him, but Bailey says he can't because he believes that Malcom died due to Bailey.
Back home, the twins present Bailey with Mischief's missing collar, which they found in the shed. Bailey noticed that it was cut through. He shows the collar to Johnny and Ryan, telling them that Mischief was let out and didn't escape. Ryan thinks that Mischief was itching on a pair of scissors and the collar cut through, but Bailey didn't mention how the collar came off, and Ryan is shown to be the one who let Mischief escape, due to his fear of dogs. Bailey tries to attack Ryan, but is interrupted when Mike receives a call from the police. The others then all turn on Ryan.
Kazima finds Jody, Harry, Floss and Tyler trying to hypnotise the rooster in the shed. However, Kazima tells them that the bird is in fact a rooster, and not a chicken as the kids initially thought. They decide to return the rooster, and instead of dumping all of the unsold vegetables, to make vegetable soup. Meanwhile in the office, May-Li receives a call from a Trading Standards representative, after one of the customers complained to the organisation about the kids' farm shop. May-Li finds the prices sign from the farm shop in a hedge, and tells off Jody and Tyler.
Bailey and Mike are at the police station to be interviewed about whether Bailey was responsible for Malcom's death. Back at the home, Tyler and Jody are giving out refunds to all of the customers, under the watchful eye of May-Li. Indoors, Floss is making dolls out of the residents using the left over vegetables, and selling them to the kids. Ryan is still being disliked by the residents for letting Mischief out, but Ryan denies having a fear of the dog. Tee finds an article about Malcom in the local newspaper, where there is a picture of him and Mischief. Ryan, Johnny, Carmen and Tee then realise that Bailey had something to do with the death of Malcom, who is revealed to be an ex-soldier. They question whether or not Mischief was in fact an ex-army dog, and decide to help fundraise for his vet bill.
At the police station, Bailey is being held in the interview room while the police speak to the hospital to find out more information about Malcom's death. Johnny collects money (or in Carmen's case, shopping vouchers) from the other residents, but Ryan tells them that they need a better and quicker way to make money. Johnny, Kazima and Ryan then go out and sell vegetable soup next to Malcom's bench, while giving the soup away for free to the homeless people. Ryan gives a cup of soup to Clive, Malcom's friend.
Bailey and Mike return from the police station with the news that Malcom died of a long-term illness, which wasn't effected by the push from Bailey. However, Bailey still feels bad for not looking after Mischief properly. When they get inside, Ryan presents the two with £150 in fundraised money, but it isn't enough for the vet bill. Clive then approaches Bailey from the back of the residents, and hands him the money that was put into Malcom's donation box. The two thank Clive and the residents and rush back to the vets.
Mischief soon returns home, with only some healable internal bruising. The twins give Bailey a present - a dog bowl with some chicken-flavoured toothpaste. The only person who isn't entirely pleased with Mischief's return is Ryan, who warns Bailey later that night to keep Mischief away from him, but Bailey doesn't mind, having finally found a friend to love.
- First appearance of Sage as Mischief.
- Mo is absent in this episode.
- When Bailey is researching online to find out how to make Mischief learn 'sit', he is seen watching a CBBC video, the same channel which airs The Dumping Ground.
- Mike makes a reference to the Glastonbury music festival.
- This is the second time Bailey has been taken into police custody.
- This is the second time someone has got ran over: the first being Faith and the second being Mischief.
- This is at least the fifth time that the name of the episode is the name of the person who is arriving in it: the first being Jackie, second Elektra, the third being Jody Jackson and the fourth being Hope.
- When May-Li finds out that Bailey has brought a dog home, she first walks up, followed by the others, as Ryan is throwing Johnny's underwear at Mischief. However, when the camera cuts back to Ryan putting down the laundry basket between him and Mischief, May-Li and the others are seen walking up again.
- When Bailey brings Mischief back to the DG and Mike confronts him, the dog has ketchup on him. During one shot, when the camera cuts back to Mischief, the ketchup has suddenly vanished.
- When Bailey is watching the dog video on the computer, at one point Windows Media Player controls can be seen at the bottom of the computer screen, which gives away that the actor was really watching a Windows Movie file.
- At the dog show, when everyone is coming into the garden Bailey has one of his arms on Michief. When the camera changes angles, Bailey has changed which arm he has on Mischief without moving them.
- When Toni goes to sit down on the box opposite Billie, the twins are holding up the hoop for Mischief to jump through. However, when the show starts, Toni and Billie are seen picking up the hoop from off the floor.
- In the same scene, the camera shows Ryan shows facial expressions of disgust about Mischief, as he doesn't like dogs. But other shots of everyone watching the dog show, Ryan can be seen smiling and clapping.

I find the video's nostalgia for the de facto racial segregation of the old Capper Carrollsburg to be very troubling. Efforts to make the neighborhood economically and racially diverse have been laudable and successful. Living next door to people of different backgrounds, or being invited to getting-to-know-you receptions with them, might push us out of our comfort zones, but we'll all be better neighbors and citizens for it.
Yes, nostalgia is problematic, but is Rose in the video nostalgic for segregation?:
- In the video, Rose wishes that everyone from the old Capper Carrollsburg could move into the beautiful apartments and houses of the now named "Capitol Quarter," like they were promised. Instead, few have been allowed to move back in. You can see how difficult it was for Rose to move back. Just yesterday, someone asked me if I could help her to move back. Rose conveys her sense that injustice has been done to those from the old Capper Carrollsburg.
- Rose seems to have liked the people and the community life of the old Capper Carrollsburg. She does not speak about liking segregation. From my conversations with those who lived in Arthur Capper, it is clear that they view Arthur Capper as a special place. One must recognize that different public housing projects have different dynamics. Just from a few conversations, people from Arthur Capper who later moved to other public housing projects and "rough" areas of town found them quite scary, and found Arthur Capper to be an enjoyable place. The people who lived there created this community. From my previous post:
- One has to ask how the redevelopment of Capper Carrollsburg is "laudable and successful," for whom and according to which criteria? As I understand it, the redevelopment project forcibly displaced people since 1998. It is great that some former residents have been allowed to move back in. In contrast to HOPE VI projects like Capitol Quarter, other programs to create more integration 1) have made certain that former residents could move to areas with 10% or less poverty, rather than to just anywhere housing happened to be available, and 2) did not seek to erase entire communities but rather redeveloped the area in stages avoiding the displacement of people and communities and allowing them to reap the benefits of the improvements. Of course, I always ask why the hundreds of millions of dollars invested in Capitol Quarter could not have been invested much earlier.
- Back in 2003-2005, one of the big issues among the Capper Carrollsburg residents was: who was considered eligible for the 707 units of public housing in Capitol Quarter? Many of the residents had low-wage jobs and thus had to compete for just a small number of the low-income public housing units (see my previous post and another post). Also other restrictions, like personal debt, kept many residents out.
- Yes, reaching out to neighbors -- including those in Capitol Quarter, those who had lived in Arthur Capper, or those living now in other public housing projects in Ward 6 -- is a great idea. Members of the Arthur Capper community have invited those living in Capitol Quarter and around Garfield Park to join them at the annual reunions. Every Friday, they play horseshoes in Garfield Park. Stop by and say hi! Through such reaching out, I agree that we might become better neighbors and better citizens.

- Pharyngula: Mail dump – I'm posting without comment the worst of today's crop of email threats. Formatting will be little wacky since it is just a raw dump of the mail with headers.
- Pharyngula: I get email — special cracker edition! – You asked for it, I deliver. Here's a good chunk of the opposition email that I've received in the last two days; not quite all of it, though, since I got bored and a lot of it has just been going straight into the trash.
- Pharyngula: Can this possibly get more insane? – The Catholic League has issued another press release. In addition to disparaging the theory of evolution as the "King Kong Theory of Creation" he accuses me and my ilk (that's you, fair readers) of hysteria while making this hysterical declaration:
- Pharyngula: Fight back against Bill Donohue! – So far today, I have received 39 pieces of personal hate mail of varying degrees of literacy, all because I was rude to a cracker. Four of them have included death threats, a personal one day record.
- Pharyngula: Now I've got Bill Donohue's attention – The Catholic League is preparing a stake for me. They're going to go straight for the jugular and threaten my job — notice how they repeat that you can access my post from my faculty page, nicely avoiding the fact that the post they find so offensive is not hosted on any university server. Extortionists and witch hunters, that's all these scumbags are.
- Naomi Wolf: Sex Crimes in the White House – The sexualization of torture from the top basically turned Abu Ghraib and Guantánamo Bay into an organized sex-crime ring in which the trafficked sex slaves were US-held prisoners. Looking at the classic S and M nature of some of this torture, it is hard not to speculate that someone setting policy was aroused by all of this.
- Jason Nazar's Blog » Blog Archive » How the 7 Deadly Sins Could Lead the United States into a Depression, not Recession. – There are some undeniable facts and historical trends that seriously indicate the economy is in much worse shape than most "experts" would have anyone believe. On top of that, throw in a dose of religious mythology and doom-saying, and we have the makings of how the seven deadly sins could lead the United States into a depression, not recession.
- God and my Sister « Greg's Big Gay Weblog – My sister stopped me in my tracks one morning and asked me if I was gay. She promised me that nothing would happen to me if I told the truth, and I knew at that very moment that my life had come to a crossroads.
- Benefits Of Vegetarianism: Vegetarians Live Longer – Green on The Huffington Post – Are humans designed/evolved to eat everything and at risk of malnutrition as vegetarians? Or is vegetarianism the healthy and ethical choice? The study's shocking results: vegetarian men reduced their risk of early death by 50%! Women vegetarians benefit from a 30% reduction in mortality.

Conceptions of freedom I: psychoanalysis

Ticketing: Pre-booking essential
The premise of the series is that "freedom" is hardly a unitary category, and that the theories we have to talk about it often don't capture either the lived experience of "being free," or the complex relationship between external liberty and internal autonomy. We would therefore like to think about the various meanings and templates of freedom, as these are conceived in various bodies of thought and practice: psychoanalytic, religious, scientific or artistic, as well as the more familiar traditions of political philosophy.
In this opening discussion, Adam Phillips, renowned writer, psychotherapist and exponent of psychoanalytic ideas, will reflect on what psychoanalysis has to tell us about the subjective experience of freedom, the development of personal agency, and the relationship between psychic structure and flexibility. PhillipS will be in conversation with Josh Cohen, author of "The Private Life," as well as a psychoanalyst and literary theorist.

The beneficial regime grants:
- a tax exemption of 80% for net income and capital gains
- a full exemption from the net wealth tax
The grandfathering period for the application of the former IP regime ends on June 30, 2021. New structures need to be set in place.

Fans of Prison Break might be able to enjoy new episodes of the show if leads and former co-stars Wentworth Miller and Dominic Purcell get their way.
"We actually floated the idea [of reviving the show] to Fox very casually and they seemed very not casual about this interest," Wentworth confirmed this week. Although the network declined to comment officially. "They seemed to think there was something there."
Wentworth adds, "We haven't reached out to anyone [from the old cast] just yet." And they're not in pre-production, just talking to the network about rebooting or retooling the show (NO SPOILERS… but fans who watched the show's dramatic climax will know why they need to do that). "It's just baby steps at this point, early stages."
He continued of how they might go about that "To go back and do something like we did at the end of season four, where there were those two standalone episodes were Sarah was in trouble; it was like a hidden chapter, we didn't know this, but we're going to share this with you, wouldn't it be cool to go back and layer one of those things in. Like another standalone chapter, this is what you didn't see before… Or a where are they now, it's five years later, limited series kind of thing. I think that'd be really cool."
Wentworth explains, the show that ended in 2009 still has a fanbase, "I have fans coming up to me every day who are watching the show right now [on Netflix]. And they are asking me about things that happened in season one that I can't even remember shooting!"
Dominic added, "It's something that Fox is, as Wentworth said, potentially excited about… Maybe definitely excited about. Maybe definitely."
The pair is on CW's The Flash co-starring as villains, Captain Cold and Heatwave. Wentworth admits, that's a big part of what sparked the interest in Prison Break.
Wentworth admitted, "When I got back together with Dom and were spending time together on set and having so much fun and all these memories came back to me, I thought wouldn't it be cool if we could potentially revisit that world? And I think that's a really smart model. You've got a show that worked and worked well and made its mark."

Last week's surprising action by the People's Bank of China (PBOC) to devalue their currency sent shock waves throughout financial markets across the globe. After the news was announced, the Dow Jones Industrial Average Index fell more than 500 points over the next two days before recovering about half the loss. Other stock markets also suffered significant declines as investors sought the safe haven of U.S. treasury bonds. Yields fell.
As the world's second largest economy, what is the significance of China's move on the global economy, especially if things worsen? In short, is China's economy broken?
China's growth rate has certainly slowed from the torrid 10% of the last several decades (or even its "official" 7% rate), but it is hardly broken. Most large economies would be quite pleased with even half of China's stated growth. Nonetheless, China is facing some significant issues as it attempts to counter the effects of the strength of its currency over the last several years.
In order to maintain some stability with the U.S. (one of their largest export markets), China fixed its exchange rate in a very tight band with the U.S. dollar, which resulted in significant strength in the Chinese yuan (up almost 10% in the last 18 months, even after the recent decline). With their economy slowing, the Chinese were hemmed in by their connection to the dollar, and needed to devalue their currency in order to make their exports more competitive with global competitors.
Despite the violent reaction in the U.S. stock market, the roughly 3% devaluation in the yuan is likely to have little direct impact on U.S. economic growth. Only about 7% of U.S. exports go to China, and since exports are a relatively small part of the U.S. economy, Chinese exports represent only about 1% of U.S. GDP.
Other countries more dependent on exports to China are likely to feel a bigger impact, especially if the value of the yuan continues to fall. European countries view China as a major export market, and the cheaper yuan will crimp demand for German machinery and other high value goods. China's voracious appetite for commodities has been cooling in recent years, and this move will put further downward pressure on big commodity exporters such as Australia. In addition, Japan's nascent recovery will be challenged by its significant dependence on exports to China.
A lower yuan will make Chinese imports to the U.S. and other countries cheaper and keep downward pressure on global inflation. This has caused some economists to push out their forecasts for the first Fed tightening. Despite this new development, we continue to believe that the Fed will make its first move in September, and stick to its stated plan of slow and deliberate rate rises over the next several years.
Beyond this initial devaluation, China made an important modification to the process for setting the exchange rate, which is likely to create more of a free-floating currency in the long-term. While the adjustment process may be painful at times, letting the market establish an equilibrium price is a positive development. Many economists believe that the yuan will depreciate further in the near-term, despite the PBOC's public statements against such an outcome. While a declining currency may be helpful in stimulating export demand, it introduces another set of less positive impacts on a nation's economy. Such is the delicate balancing act that the PBOC must navigate as it tries to reinvigorate growth in the world's second largest economy.
