Let's talk TED, SRK!
Imagine a diabetic person buying a carton of ice-cream simply because it was a famous brand that was on sale that week. Is it right? Will it be considered a good decision?
That's how I feel about Shahrukh Khan being the face of TED Talks. It is a decision made out of temptation because perhaps SRK has dropped his price and needs more work these days. TED has given in to that temptation, forgetting all about its own persona and why people love the property so much.
I have seen brands do this to themselves time and again. Where they choose a face that is either overshadowing the brand itself, or is a complete misfit. My previous article on Messi and TATA Tiago was on this same topic and garnered a lot of attention. But here I am again, pained by the choice TED has made!
I have always maintained that brands are like people. They have personalities, principles, an image and a story. Just like you and me. Some know who they really are and what they stand for, and some don't. Those who are clear about themselves have very loyal and close friends (or customers) who like the brand for it's clarity and honesty. Others go from party to party, right swipe to right swipe, hoping to strike a chord with a few and are eventually forgotten.
I admire brands that are true to their identities and personalities. Those that do not lead double lives. Those who are not lured by fame, or money. Those who know exactly why people love them and respect them. This is not to say that I only like niche brands. Mass appeal is equally impressive, if that is who the brand really wants to be. Point is to stay true to who you are!
TED talks is one brand that knew what it represents. It came from a place of honesty and really walked the talk. TED is a stage where world's voices from all cultures, religions, ethnicity and nationalities meet. It is where our thinkers, artists, teachers, doctors, politicians, writers, musicians etc all come under one roof to share their thoughts about the future. A brand that has substance, values, an ideology, and fearlessness. It is a brand that wants to make a difference in the world!
Everything that SRK doesn't stand for. Don't get me wrong. I admire SRK as a brand because he is also very clear about what he represents. SRK is a brand that is very fluid, entertaining and casual. Unlike an Aamir Khan or Amitabh Bachchan who say no to certain endorsements if it comes in the way of their principles or ideologies, SRK has made a living by being the brand of choice for those who are non controversial, light-hearted, safe and entertaining. There is little depth or substance that comes with SRK. He is not interested in changing the world. What you can surely expect is entertainment, star power and of course charm to reach the masses. That is what has made "SRK the brand" a huge success in the ad world! We are a country that loves our stars. Here is a man who has endorsed everything from vests, to colas to paints and even apps just by playing himself. And he likes it that way.
Anything serious or educative or remotely grounded is not something that SRK will be a great choice for. Look what happened with KBC? They tried SRK but it just didn't work. Why is that? Because he had to play an empathizing role. He had to not be SRK but a simple human being who interacts with everyday people. Now this is not SRK's strength. He is best at playing the star. Unlike Big B, who is known for his down to earth personality and his want to connect with the citizens of the country.
TED and SRK are a match made in hell! It is a real tragedy to see a brand with so much promise and substance, give in to the temptation of SRK. In my mind, TED is larger than any celebrity that might endorse it. So this is very sad to see and bothers me a great deal. While I know this alliance will tell more people about TED talks. I know the mass appeal will come, but what will also come with it is entertainment, drama, and silly jokes. Unless SRK is looking to transform his brand through TED! If that's true then it just reeks of desperation on both sides in my opinion!
This is a lot like what happened with Masterchef Australia and Masterchef US. The latter was so customized to the US market that it divided the world wide audience for the property. Australia was all about the cooks and US was about Gordon Ramsay. Both are successful formats, but what is it that Masterchef really wanted to stand for? That is the real question. And as Oprah said "Don't settle for a relationship that won't let you be yourself", I urge TED talks to do the same!

The Department of Culture, Media and Sport is to make amendments to the Digital Economy Bill, making it illegal for the use of automated bots to bulk buy concert tickets and sell for inflated prices. This has often resulted in people not being able to buy tickets to see their favourite artists. Sites such as Viagogo and GetMeIn are well known for selling tickets for extortionate prices, for artists including Adele and plays such as the Cursed Child.
Ministers have also said that there is a necessity for stronger enforcement on Consumer Rights Laws. This is due to concern that many of these tickets sold are sold without details of seating or the seller's name. This will be investigated in relation to the Consumer Rights Act 2015.
According to the BBC, an £85 ticket to see Adele at the 02 in London last year was reportedly being sold for £24,840. During the crackdown on rogue ticket sellers, precaution must be taken to differentiate between fans selling tickets and rogue sellers.
This type of online behaviour has been opposed by many artists, politicians and the public. It means that fans lose often out on concerts. You Me at Six singer, Josh Francheschi, said that fans were the "main losers".
With many students being avid concert and music fans, these prices will inevitably affect students at RGU. However, it also affects sports' tickets.
Journalism student, Lukas Rogalla said: "I've seen football or rugby tickets on sale with ten times the original price. The original vendors should take action against that and ban those who obviously sell solely for profit."
With public pressure along with artist support, many hope that over the next year there will be a crackdown on rogue sellers and their high prices. This will ensure that people can see their favourite artists for a more affordable price.
You may have noticed in your town or even on social media that drawings of rainbows are being displayed somewhere new - on windows of homes across the United Kingdom!
Nigerian design collective, Ile Moremi will be showcasing a tie-dye textile, Adire, in their signature jumpsuits and basketweave jackets. The collection will be displayed at the Africa Fashion Week London 2020 this August.
Nominations for the upcoming Student Elections are now closed. Find out more as to who are your candidates for this year:
As of tomorrow, RGU will be closing its doors to all staff and students for the foreseeable future in order to meet guidelines set by the UK Government.

Many changes to new tax laws affect divorcing couples
Are you awaiting a final judgment of divorce? Or maybe you are only beginning to consider ending your marriage. Regardless, the implications of the new tax laws take effect in January 2019. Some projections have the government taking in nearly $7 billion in the next decade due to the implementation of these laws.

Dear Editor:
I visited the Alderwood Mall on Tuesday morning and was greatly disturbed by the larger than life indecent advertising in the windows of Victoria's Secret, Pink and Soma stores. I believe the scantily clad models were in bad taste and quite unseemly. This type of advertising goes beyond suggestive and borders on pornography.
The mall is a gathering place of multiple ages and I would be quite embarrassed to be there with family, friends or out of town guests. I find this type of advertising offensive and grossly immodest. I have shopped at two of these stores in the past and I would expect more from a shopping experience than to be confronted with this off-color advertising.
I will not be shopping those stores or any others at the mall, due to this shameless advertising, anytime soon.
I will be sharing this letter with the stores I mentioned as well as others who may have the authority to bring a more family environment back to our community.

My name is Elyse Izumi and I did my undergrad at Cal Poly Pomona where I wrote my undergrad capstone project on the formation of Okinawan-American identity in youth. This project allowed me to explore my own ethnic background as a half Japanese American, half Okinawan American and layers of colonialism that have formed my understanding of my own identity as well as my family. Based off theories and concepts of decolonization, identity and belonging, and religion, I'm interested in what solidarity looks like in various communities who have experienced colonization, more specifically between Okinawa and Hawaii.

Streamlined Treasury at Royal Schiphol Group
Royal Schiphol Group is an airport business, with Amsterdam Airport Schiphol as its main airport. Royal Schiphol Group is also the owner and operator of Rotterdam The Hague Airport and Lelystad Airport and holds a majority share in Eindhoven Airport. The activities of Royal Schiphol Group stretch out globally, including direct and indirect business in the United States, Australia, Italy, Hong Kong and Aruba. It is Royal Schiphol Group's ambition to develop Schiphol into Europe's preferred airport. Over the years, Schiphol has grown to become one of the largest hub airports in Europe, with over 300 direct destinations and over 71 million travellers in 2018.
Vianney Heeren
Treasurer, Royal Schiphol Group
The Challenge
Back in 2014, the management of Royal Schiphol Group expressed the need to select and implement a new TMS to further improve and streamline the operational daily treasury activities. The treasury activities at Royal Schiphol Group are simple and straightforward, but diverse, so the new TMS should be based on practicality and ease of use. For payments, a highly secure and automated workflow needed to be integrated in the TMS and connected to Royal Schiphol's two main banks. The system is used group-wide. Royal Schiphol Group's goal is to implement a TMS that supports the current operations and tackles future challenges. This should result in: secure and standardized payment processes; improved daily cash positioning and interest result; useful input for intercompany transfers; proven control that complies with the internal control framework; solid reporting and centralized cash flow forecasting.
The Solution
During the scope and design phase with all project team members, Royal Schiphol Group's Treasury department and BELLIN's partner company Enigma defined and agreed upon the scope and plan for the implementation of tm5. For payments, the BELLIN SWIFT Service was selected for the connectivity to the main banks of Royal Schiphol Group. Reporting is done via MT940, and treasury payments are initiated via MT101. Next to this, an interface was established between tm5 and vwd for the purpose of importing relevant market data into the TMS. At the end of the implementation, the connection between tm5 and Oracle E-Business Suite to support the export of accounting entries to the general ledger was completed. Together with Enigma Consulting, relevant reporting was set up, resulting in a clear view on daily cash balances and the input needed to decide on intercompany transfers and treasury dealing. Royal Schiphol Group Treasury is future-proof and ready for the challenges of tomorrow.
Let's get in touch!

About CHARGED:
From the New York Times bestselling author of the Marked Men books comes the second installment in the Saints of Denver series featuring a bad girl and a by the book attorney who could be her salvation…or her ruin.
Avett Walker and Quaid Jackson's worlds have no reason to collide. Ever. Quaid is a high powered criminal attorney as slick as he is handsome. Avett is a pink-haired troublemaker with a bad attitude and a history of picking the wrong men.
When Avett lands in a sea of hot water because of one terrible mistake, the only person who can get her out of it is the insanely sexy lawyer. The last thing on earth she wants to do is rely on the no-nonsense attorney who thinks of her as nothing more than a nuisance. He literally has her fate in his hands. Yet there is something about him that makes her want to convince him to loosen his tie and have a little fun…with her.
Quaid never takes on clients like the impulsive young woman with a Technicolor dye job. She could stand to learn a hard lesson or two, but something about her guileless hazel eyes intrigues him. Still, he's determined to keep their relationship strictly business. But doing so is becoming more impossible with each day he spends with her.
As they work side-by-side, they'll have to figure out a way to get along and keep their hands off each other—because the chemistry between them is beyond charged.
I tapped the edge of my thumb on the black-and-white mug shot photo and couldn't stop the grin from tugging at my mouth.
She tried to fire me.
She was five-foot-nothing, a lifetime younger than me, had multicolored hair that had seen better days, wild eyes that couldn't decide if they wanted to be green, gold, or brown, while dressed in convict orange and obviously scared out of her ever loving mind, yet she still tried to fire me. If it had been any of my other clients—the cop accused of sexual battery, the frat boy accused of manslaughter over a bet on a football game gone wrong, the middle school teacher accused of pedophilia and having an inappropriate relationship with several of her students, or the pro football player accused of domestic abuse—I would have tipped my proverbial hat, wished them luck while I cut my losses, and walked away without a backward glance. People always committed crimes. People always needed a good defense, so it wasn't like I was hurting for clients, but there was something about the girl. Something about the defiant tilt of her chin and the raw desperation in her tone when she begged me not to call her father.
"I don't want your help. I don't want anything from you." She sounded like she meant it when she said it, but I figured she was too young and too scared to know exactly what she wanted or needed. Regardless, it was still refreshing to hear.
Everyone always wanted something from me and my help was usually the least of it.
I tapped the picture again, wondering why I found it so easy to believe that she really hadn't been a part of the boyfriend's plan to rob the bar. She wasn't anyone's idea of a model citizen and she had the shady track record to prove it. She was too young, and frankly too adorable, to have a file this thick. From what I could see, she had a set of parents always willing to ride to the rescue when she got herself into trouble. She looked like some kind of colorful woodland fairy from a Disney movie with her odd hair and delicate features. None of it added up, but the sincerity in her tone when she said she would never have gone with the boyfriend if she knew his intent and the fear in her eyes when I mentioned her father seemed genuine.
I learned long ago to treat everyone like they were guilty of whatever it was I was paid to defend them against. I didn't want to know the truth. I didn't want to know the circumstances. I wanted my clients to listen to me and let me do my job as I tried to convince the rest of the world they were innocent, regardless if they were or not. But this girl with her faded, rose colored hair and turbulent eyes oozed innocence through the cracks of a very guilty façade.
Because I was intrigued and actually believed the girl might be innocent, I wasn't going to let her fire me. I was going to call her father and hope that he would help me keep her out of the slammer while I figured out how to plea bargain her charges down or get them dismissed altogether. Again, because a cop was involved in the robbery and because the boyfriend, junkie or not, was offering up a pretty plausible explanation for Avett's involvement in the crime, nothing was a slam dunk, yet. I was going to help her whether she wanted me to or not.
Charged by Jay Crownover
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I knew in the first paragraph this book had the potential to be my favorite book by Jay and it fully lived up to that potential. I loved this book. Quaid is now my favorite of all Jay's men – Rome included (although he's my 2nd favorite). For those of you that were sad about the Marked Men series coming to an end, you will love this series if you haven't tried it yet. It was so hot, I could help but feel similar elation to what I felt when watching the stupendous videos from Nu-Bay.
Quaid is everything. He thinks he's nothing. His childhood was heartbreaking but it made him the man he is today. He hides behind this BS façade that he's even convinced himself to believe. As Avett uncovers his layers, we find out the amazing man he's hiding. I loved his reaction to Avett…he was just perfect.
Avett was a bit of a mess and didn't know how to deal with everything she was feeling. Instead of seeking help, she sought self-destruction and boy did she find it. Her latest path to ruin is farther reaching and more damaging than she ever imagined. As Quaid discovers, she is the perfect storm and he finds he likes being in her path to help stave off some of the destruction.
They are the perfect balance…they help save each other and learn how to live together and I loved watching them learn.
My only tiny complaint about this book is that the narrative was a bit unnecessarily long in places…I did a bit of skimming a few times.
There are a couple of leads to future books in this book…both Wheeler and Church. I can't wait for the next one!
And don't miss the first titles in The Saints of Denver Series!

Blockchain will reform the Healthcare Industry as you probably are aware it.
No. Blockchain is a Sham. It will never have the capacity to Make a Mark in an Industry as conspicuous as Healthcare.
You will now spend the following 14 minutes arriving at a stop of regardless of whether Blockchain will affect the Healthcare business and in the event that it does – *Spoiler* It Will – How would you be able to be a piece of the advancement.
The determination will begin with us perceiving how Blockchain innovation and Healthcare fit together and what are the distinctive utilize instances of the innovation in the business. Next, the manifestations of Blockchain will be examined and an unmistakable determination will be made as far as the innovation future. In conclusion, the measures will be shared to help the organizations offering Healthcare Apps use the innovation, appropriately.
How about we begin with the Medical Evaluation of Blockchain Technology.
The one solid thing in the unsurety encompassing regardless of whether Blockchain will do to Healthcare what it did to Finance, is the way that Blockchain is a piece of the 9 Healthcare Trends that organizations will follow in 2018.
Yet, as something that was initially incepted to be a piece of installment biological community, how does Blockchain fit into the Healthcare Industry?
How about we start the response to this 'How' with the issue that gave scope for Blockchain innovation mediation.
There's a wording called 'Doctor Burnout' doing rounds in the healing facility loads and the rate of Physician Burnout has expanded to 80%. What's more, the doctors are pointing the finger at EMR for it.
When you take a gander at a specialist's activity, it has 8/9 hours of facility time after which they go home and following 4 – 5 hours of rest, they are winding up before their EMR human services application, where they are encouraging in information and refreshing therapeutic records.
Presently, take this burnout and add it to the rising acts of neglect that are connected back to the absence of security in looking after EHR.
When you take these two abhorrent non-theoretical occasions and attempt to discover an answer that offers both – a Platform where the data is refreshed progressively and remains as such, unaltered in this manner keeping any or all extent of altering, you get Blockchain.
How does Blockchain Technology Fit in the Healthcare Industry?
The developing interest for incorporated consideration conveyance blended with an expanding center around wellbeing administration builds the interest for a data innovation biological community that would evacuate the reliance on the agents.
Blockchain, the innovation behind cryptographic money, being an open decentralized framework, offers only that. The Blockchain Healthcare innovation needn't bother with different level of verification and yet it gives the entrance to sequentially orchestrated information to everybody who is a piece of the design.
By getting all the aggregate information one place for the partners to view and work around in a way that the progressions made by one individual in the information are unmistakable to every other person in the framework.
The highlights that the blend of Blockchain and Healthcare environment accompanies – Decentralization, Immutability, and Security – consolidate together to comprehend various difficulties that face the Healthcare business today.
Human services Challenges that Blockchain Technology Solves
Blockchain in Healthcare Industry
1. Divided Data
One of the main motivations of EMR fakes or information burglary can be followed back to one server where all the medicinal information, rolling in from all the distinctive stages, combined. At the point when each datum is put away in a typical place, the minute the framework is hacked, information gets traded off.
With Blockchain, your social insurance application gets the chance to store the patients' information over various distinctive hubs, wiping out the danger of focal server getting hacked or smashed.
2. Auspicious Access of Data
The dispersed record that comes as a bundle with Blockchain and Healthcare blend, empowers circulated and secure access to the patient's wellbeing information and the updates that are made to the patient's shared information are likewise done progressively.
3. Framework Interoperability
Blockchain offers a decentralized type of PC system and web crosswise over limits. So when a wellbeing association looks for data about the patient from another social insurance association, they no more need to sit tight for the information to movement a few miles.
4. Information Security
Blockchain in itself has turned into an equivalent word to Security. Being totally decentralized and permanent, the patient information is A. Just open to the individuals who want to communicate with it and B. Any change when made to it is obvious to everybody in the Blockchain, making it incomprehensible for somebody to bring the information without others knowing.
5. Persistent Generated Data
While it is as yet conceivable (albeit troublesome) to get solidified patient information from crosswise over various social insurance associations, consolidating the information that the clients create through their own human services gadget – wearables – with the ones produced by medicinal services associations isn't simple.
Blockchain Healthcare makes it conceivable to solidify clients produced IoT information with their human services association information in one place.
Examples of Blockchain Technology
6. Cost Effectiveness
Since there is no outsider associated with bringing the patient information or in exchanging the information starting with one gathering then onto the next, there is more prominent cost-adequacy joined with utilizing Blockchain innovation in Healthcare than in a situation where a decentralized framework is absent.
7. Disintermediation of Trust
In a non-decentralized world, a HIE is named to build up the point-to-point sharing and accounting of the traded tolerant information, while in a decentralized situation a.ka. Blockchain innovation in Healthcare, every one of the members have the entrance to the appropriated record, which guarantees a straightforward, secure trade.
8. Steady Rules Through Smart Contract
Savvy Contract, the pivotal component of Blockchain innovation builds up a reliable, manage base process for human services associations with regards to getting to patient's information.
The Blockchain innovation components that have helped Healthcare industry deal with the difficulties that have been available as far back as the origin, are similar components that have curated a progression of utilization cases for themselves in the Healthcare area.
In that regard, let us investigate a portion of the situations which approve the developing effect of Blockchain in the Healthcare business –
Blockchain Use Cases in a Healthcare Scenario
Blockchain in Healthcare Use Cases
1. Patient's Medical Verification
Assume you visited a specialist in 2010 to get meeting on an infection that was then treated, yet in 2018, following 8 years, the condition backslides. Presently, in a brought together world, you will require the points of interest of the assessment from 8 years back, for which you should find the counseling specialist and expectation that he has the records.
Slice to the Decentralized Blockchain world, where Blockchain Technology in Healthcare is the standard.
With the assistance of your medicinal services application that has a Blockchain usefulness installed in it, you and your present specialist will have the total record of what you were influenced from in 2010.
2. Store network Management
Medicinal services industry is 80% ward completely on the worldwide inventory network of therapeutic item and administrations. The capacity of Blockchain Healthcare to keep permanent records understands various issues that are related with Supply Chain Management.
Give us a chance to take a gander at a portion of the issues that get understood with Blockchain application in the medicinal services industry –
Guaranteeing that the dynamic fixings utilized for medication creation are according to the therapeutic guidelines.
Traceability of Counterfeit items – Counterfeit medications and gadgets are the main issue that social insurance associations confront. Following the cause of the fake medication and gadget can fathom various issues later.
Data identified with the development of pharmaceuticals and the stock offers extraordinary incentive to all – pharmaceutical organizations, drug stores, and the medicinal services suppliers.
Overseeing prescription and gadgets review are additionally much simpler to execute.
3. Clinical Research and Drug Development
The traceability of information that is produced amid the procedure of the clinical preliminary is a key to assess the proposed restorative intercessions.
Likewise, when Blockchain and Healthcare are joined in a way that it is coordinated with the clients' wellbeing based IoT gadgets, definite documentation of observational information and patients' activities can be made.
Since the data that is gathered with the mix of Blockchain Healthcare is significantly higher, better medication plan should be possible which would be more in direct match up with the clients' correct condition.
4. Effect of Treatment Regimen
Through the approved access into itemized tolerant information, social insurance look into organizations can ponder the effect of a particular treatment regimen on a substantial division of client's populace. This sort of downstream research on the effect of the treatment regimen on a patient's prosperity gives an upgraded premise to the proceeded with change in mediation customization to meet the patient's particular qualities.
5. Change in Business Model
Blockchain, when incorporated with the activities and condition of the partners can prompt the production of new plans of action. Here are a portion of the precedents of how the human services partners' plan of action can change with the development to Blockchain Healthcare –
Pharmaceutical Companies – With the information that is gathered on the Blockchain stage continuously, pharma organizations can give a scope of various medicinal items and treatment regimen that are altered by the patient's correct genomic.
Drug stores – With the information of patient prerequisites now promptly accessible, drug stores can investigate the medication medicines and can manage patients on how the medication should be taken.
Human services Professionals – Healthcare suppliers would now be able to get to the data that is identified with patient's conditions and necessities. At the point when incorporated with the continuous information of patient's wellbeing execution, gathered through wearables, social insurance suppliers can utilize new techniques to alarm the patients of wellbeing hazard and can manage them when there is a difference in condition.
I realize that while some of you perusing the piece would get amped up for the possibility of development that Blockchain and Healthcare together can acquire the world, there'll be an awesome level of all of you who might not be sold on the possibility of over technicalizing the business that doesn't generally require the complexities.
This is for the last mentioned. The non-adherents.
I know where you are originating from. For an industry like Healthcare to be reformed by a genuinely untested innovation like Blockchain, the idea that offers a shallow guarantee of backing out the conventional business should confront various ground-level difficulties.
Give us a chance to take a gander at a portion of this present reality challenges that are keeping Blockchain from making the perfect level of fantasy world effect that the world is hoping to find in the Healthcare Industry.
1. Diverse Geographical Locations Come With Different Set of Medical Guidelines
Reconciliation of compliances like HIPAA and PCI are as of now an idea that we versatile application engineers experience the ill effects of. Presently when you include a specialized idea in with the general mish-mash that does not have the back of any medicinal board, the procedure turns out to be considerably more troublesome. Also, you know what aggravates it? The distinction in Compliances as indicated by various locales.
Things being what they are, the main issue that shields the innovation from being acknowledged generally is the unsurety that is Blockchain Healthcare Apps even consistent with the medicinal rules?
The Applications of Blockchain in Big Data
Not at all like the general conviction, sparing the information on a blockchain does not mean resistance. Rather, as a general rule, the innovation makes the implementation of compliances significantly more straightforward and consistent.
To guarantee that your medicinal services application fits in the criteria set by HIPAA compliances, gather the patient's restorative data rolling in from wherever – protection supplier, symptomatic focus, and even the wearables – in a way that it holds fast to the compliances and after that store it on the blockchain.
Likewise, in the event that you are putting the medicinal information on an open blockchain, you can keep up the namelessness of the private data by encoding it in a way that just the patient can unscramble it.
2. Unclarity as far as Deciding Who Actually Needs the Access
At the point when was the last time you heard somebody say that they have stayed with one specialist, one center, and one pathology lab? Been a while, isn't that so?
With the changing observations that patients have as far as looking for restorative direction, the number and sort of specialist co-ops have transformed from their unique, imagined numbers.
In a circumstance where anyone could request your medicinal record for any number of reasons – for documentation reason or for clinical research, in what manner can Blockchain guarantee "security"?
The Solution?
Permissioned Blockchain and Smart Contracts
We should take a quickly break here and see what happens when individuals discuss Blockchain. They accept that there is a stage which opens for everybody to see and in light of the fact that it is so straightforward, while on one hand, any progressions that would be made would be unmistakable, so odds of altering would be to a base and it is valid.
The general comprehension of what Blockchain is valid, however what it is a misleading statement.
There are two kinds of Blockchains – Public and Permissioned. The one you read above is a great instance of Public blockchain, the sort which isn't appropriate for an industry like Healthcare or even Finance.
The one that is suited for the exceptionally private segment as is Healthcare…
Permissioned – Our one answer for the issue of unclarity as far as how secure Blockchain truly is. What happens is that while the information will be spared cryptographically in an open blockchain stage, the entrance to see it will be permissioned and just those with the entrance will have the capacity to see it.
The other arrangement would be information control and permissioning with the assistance of savvy contracts. Utilizing the savvy contract system, you will have the capacity to set benchmarks with respect to who can see a data and under what condition.
3. Size of Data That can be Stored in a Block
In the event that we make an unpleasant gauge of the measure of restorative information that is created by medicinal services partners, the number would be some place in the 80 – 120 MB ballpark. A number that effectively outperforms the measure of information that can be put away in a regular blockchain design on account of the square size restriction.
The Solution?
An all around arranged Architecture will turn out to be a conspicuous smart arrangement with the framework's segments made by putting away the on and off-chain information after an extremely watchful investigation of the information composes, which would bode well in the particular areas e.g. a blend of the on-chain and the off-chain information in either the ordinary RDBMS/No-SQL or in an IPFS.
4. Confinement in Number of Transactions that should be Possible Every day
The time that it directly takes to stack information in a blockchain is without a doubt moderate. The plausible answer for handle this issue can be utilizing stages like Hyperledger Fabric, EOS, and Fabric, and so on which empowers scaling of various more exchanges per square while helping in achieving an agreement in a significantly lesser time by applying a propelled accord algo which are path in front of an ordinary confirmation of work.
5. Information Immutability
The way that Blockchain does not enable changes to be made once a data is transferred, is both an aid and a bane. While on one hand unchanging nature guarantees elevated security, on the other it limits adaptability.
The answer for this permanence issue would require an expansion in the present engineering, which would empower recording of just the alters or the one that utilizations shrewd on-chain off-chain information dividing in short terms.
So we have now been a piece of He said She stated, with both the gatherings making some superb focuses, here's the *drumrolls* Moment of Truth – The eventual fate of Blockchain in Healthcare.
The Technology won't Change the Healthcare Industry from its Core Next Year or Even its Next.
Be that as it may, the Tech Revolution is on course of turning into a Healthcare Evolution.
Blockchain is unquestionably developing and developing with the innovation behind digital currency is its appropriation inside the social insurance area.
Four Phases of Blockchain Maturity
As should be obvious in the delineation above, Blockchain has entered the Phase 1 as various social insurance versatile applications have incorporated the innovation in their procedure to help place patients accountable for their information, better the nature of Healthcare Research and Development, and better the administration conveyance.
The innovation now, in the wake of having been received in stage 1 would now be able to be seen showing up in Phase 2 where it is currently being institutionalized – a case of this would be its combination in the social insurance production network.
The following stage in the adventure that the Blockchain innovation needs to cover is of getting received to a significantly greater degree than its present self. While there are no utilization instances of the not so distant future that the innovation has anticipated for itself, we can expect that when you see restorative sheets the world over tolerating the innovation and setting rules around it, the innovation would have entered Phase 3 of its development.
The last stage, stage 4 where there will be enhancement and an incorporation of business process will come when the business, alongside the entirety of its partners will move to a decentralized world.
Denoting the voyage that Blockchain is on – the course to decentralize human services industry – are the Blockchain Healthcare Companies that are have embraced the innovation to improve the Healthcare business in their own particular manner.
Renowned Blockchain Healthcare Companies
Medicinal services Companies Excelling in Blockchain Service
Brands like the ones you read above about are the ones that are having their influence in making the social insurance industry partners get acclimated with the troublesome innovation.
This conveys us to our last area. Where to begin on the off chance that you wish to join the alliance of these organizations and offer an item that would be a mix of Healthcare App and Blockchain App.
How to Add a Blockchain Dose in your Healthcare App?
Regardless of whether you are beginning with the Healthcare App Development Process out of the blue or whether you are wanting to include a Blockchain highlight in your current mHealth application, the correct advance to pursue is to begin little.
[Know the amount Blockchain App Development would cost you (in $ and not in digital currency), regardless of whether you begin little or build up a totally Blockchain driven mHealth application solution]
Here are the human services application includes that you can move to Blockchain –
1. Medicinal Data Management
By expediting all the patient information one stage that is imparted to the partners, it turns into much less demanding for the included gatherings to get the data continuously and remain refreshed with what is occurring with the patient's life, medicinally progressively.
2. Claims and Billing Management
Guarantee and Bill Management is the piece of process where the documenting and the preparing of the restorative case that are identified with the patients' conclusion, prescriptions, and medicines are finished. There have various occurrences where the medicinal records were endangered, which prompted extortion and burglary cases.
Blockchain makes it simple to dispense with these cases as the innovation in its fundamental self works around chronicle of medicinal information and putting away it in the open, in a way that any change when made in the data is unmistakable to everybody who is a piece of the chain.
3. Information Security
The part in your application where you store the patients' therapeutic history can be moved to Blockchain. Since it is difficult to change the information that is put away on Blockchain without everybody seeing, everybody in the chain dependably know how the information is being used and they can permit/forbid it as needs be.
4. Therapeutic Research
Verification of date is the greatest prerequisite of therapeutic research space, and getting a change in perspective in the idea is Blockchain's Timestamp. The principle functionalities of the innovation – trustworthiness of information and traceability – are precisely what help diminish the occasions of mistakes and cheats in clinical preliminaries.
Another component diminishing the misrepresentation cases in clinical investigates is the unchanging record of analysis, preliminary, result, and convention.
So there you have it. The decision – Blockchain has not yet but rather unquestionably will get a Healthcare Evolution. Also, now you know how you can set up your medicinal services application for it when the time comes. Still need a few illuminations? Contact our group of Blockchain Development specialists today, and they will assist you with scaling your Healthcare App with Blockchain innovation.

Five things you probably didn't know about deaf people
NEWS/FEATURES, Grades 10–12, 1st Place
Have you ever imagined being deaf? For a second I want you to cover your ears. What do you hear? Your heart beat? Maybe a ringing? But just imagine yourself deaf. Or take the Deaf Challenge. Put on some ear plugs for one whole day and do your daily routines. Don't cheat.
Many people think it's impossible to do a lot of things while deaf. When people find out that my parents are deaf, I always hear, "Aww, I feel so bad."
In case you didn't know, deaf people get irritated when you pity them. It's the same when somebody's relatives are deaf. It's considered rude. Ask a deaf person "would you want to hear?" and they would easily say no.
You see there's this thing called deaf culture. Many people who don't want their children to learn American Sign Language [ASL] constantly degrade deaf people and try to take away American Sign Language because it makes them "dumb." This is why there is deaf culture. It empowers deaf people to be who they are and not be ashamed. Interesting, huh?
Here are five more things you didn't know about deaf people:
1. Sports
I'm not deaf but I'm telling you from family experience. My parents are deaf and I have three siblings who are deaf. One of them plays basketball. "Wait... can deaf people play sports?" Umm, yes. Their legs and eyes work, you know. Their ears are the only things that don't. My older brother plays basketball and soccer and let me tell you that he is very good at both. There are a lot of things my brother can do that I can't. For instance, roller skating, swimming and many more.
2. Big D vs. little d
There is a difference between being Deaf and being deaf. Generally, the "small d" deaf do not associate with other members of the deaf community. They may strive to identify themselves with hearing people, regard their hearing loss solely in medical terms. Some may also be progressively losing their hearing and not yet integrated into the deaf culture. In contrast, "big D" Deaf people identify themselves as culturally deaf and have a strong deaf identity. They're often quite proud to be deaf. It's common that "big D" Deaf attended schools and programs for the deaf. The "small d" deaf tend to have been mainstreamed and may not have attended a school for the deaf.
3. ASL optional
Not all deaf people use ASL. So when a deaf person says that they are deaf, don't assume they know sign language and do not say "you speak well for a deaf person" or "you don't look deaf." That's really offensive.
Deaf/deaf and hard-of-hearing people are not "silent" at all. They use sign language, lip-reading, vocalizations, and so on to communicate. Communication is not reserved for hearing people alone, and vocal speech is not the only way to communicate. As I said in the last sentence, Deaf people are NOT silent. They know how to use their voice so no, my house is not quiet.
4. Braille?
Many people assume that when a person is deaf, then they're automatically mute or blind. This is a common misconception. Some blind people use braille. Deaf people have problems with their ears, not their eyes. There is no reason for a deaf person to read braille unless they were deaf-blind.
5. Eye contact
Making eye contact is extremely important for hearing impaired people. Deaf people find not making eye contact rude.
Finally, it may surprise you to hear that most of the deaf community love being deaf. It's part of their identity and they wouldn't change that.
So how was your Deaf Challenge? Was it difficult? Or was it what you didn't expect even though you probably heard little muffles through the earplugs.

In keeping with management's new policy, today's blog will be short. The subject is sympathy.
I have heart-felt sympathy today for everyone who lives in the colder climes. I realize you are experiencing exceptionally lousy weather this year. The temps are really low and snow depths really high.
Here in South Florida we are currently in our euphoric months, weather-speaking. I don't have time to tell you about our temps and snow depths or about the balmy beaches or the new cargo shorts I'm wearing or the convertible with the top down that just drove by or the barbecue we'll have later today…nope, can't tell you about these things. I have to keep this short, y'know. Sorry. Stay warm.

The ministry on Monday opened the licenses to public comment until February 6 and said the approvals would be granted after the notice period if there are no objections from the public.
Huifeng Petrochemical has a crude processing capacity of 5.8 million mt/year (116,000 b/d), while the Chambroad Petrochemical, locally known as Jingbo Petrochemical, has a crude processing capacity of 3.5 million mt/year.
Tianhong Petrochemical has a crude processing capacity of 5 million mt/year and Luqing Petrochemical a 3 million mt/year capacity.
If the import licenses are approved, this would be the fourth group of refineries to have been granted them since last year. On September 21 the ministry granted crude import licenses to the 3.5 million mt/year Lihuayi Petrochemical -- also known as Lijin -- and the 3 million mt/year Kenli Petrochemical in eastern Shandong province .
The 7.5 million mt/year Dongming Petrochemical refinery in Shandong province and the 7 million mt/year Beifang Asphalt Fuel refinery in northeastern Liaoning province were granted crude import licenses August 24.
The 7.5 million mt/year Baota Petrochemical in northwestern Ningxia province and the 3.5 million mt/year Yatong Petrochemical in Shandong province were also granted crude licenses on October 26.
Once a refinery receives both the crude import quota and license, it can directly import crude without going through a third party.
The licenses also allow holders to import crude for other refineries that have quotas to process imported crude.
On December 10, Huifeng Petrochemical was granted a 4.16 million mt/year crude import quota, Tianhong Petrochemical a 4.4 million mt/year quota, Chambroad Petrochemical a 3.31 million mt/year quota, and Luqing Petrochemical a 2.58 million mt/year quota.
The four refineries will have to apply to the ministry for 2016 import volumes, within the cap set by the National Development and Reform Commission, according to the ministry.

Like, these two guys are dead now for kayfabe realsies is my suggestion. Death by poison gas. Nobly sacrificing themselves so that Breezango could live. Maybe in a few months or so they could come back with a total repackaging, or maybe they could just vanish for good, I haven't totally come up with a full plan for the aftermath of this crucible. But I'm open to suggestions. As long as those suggestions are not them somehow "not painfully dying from poison gas."
Speaking of tag teams and repackaging - them Bludgeon Brothers! Yes, former Wyatt Family members Luke Harper and Erick Rowan (who've now lost their first names completely) who now carry giant hammers down to the ring to give everything just a hint of bludgeoning. These two are apparently gracious enough, as giants, to just lave those mega mallets in the aisle so that there's never a danger of them coming into play in the ring. They just provide the looming presence of something that can bludgeon you. Just out of view. Like a whisper you can't make out. "We're big hammers but we'll never be ussssssed."
Look, these guys are still in the woods, they've still got their beards, they're still spouting off Bray-style nonsense - not too much is changed other than the fact that they now dressed like the Hardys (complete with arm sleeves and JNCO jeans) and everyone's pretending they're new goddamn superstars. It's really freakin' weird that they're being treated like a new tag team worthy of an official debut. These two have a wrestling history that is profoundly connected to one another. Even when they did singles runs they'd battle each other often. Most glaring however is that they were once a very formidable tag team who FEUDED WITH THE USOS. Honestly, it's just funny that the decision was made to re-gimmick two guys who, as a tag team, come with a built-in natural gimmick.
It's one thing for a guy like Charles Wright to play Papa Shango, Kama, and The Godfather because there were gaps in the eras and full costume and personality changes. It's another to put a hat on a hat (on probably another hat) by taking a former tag team and re-branding them as a new tag team while setting them up to challenge the tag team they've challenged before. Aren't dirty swamp giants enough of a gimmick for anyone to ever hope for? Why turn them into raver ogres?
Side note here: I see they finally pulled the trigger on the Hype Bros break up. The twist was that they made Mojo the heel. Kids, this is one of the many dangers of being in a constant, cursed, never-ending state of hype.
Now, let's examine Paige's big return to RAW and the curious call-up of five notable NXT women. Paige, and her Paige Against the Machine crew (which is sadly called Absolution which, for some reason just makes my think of Jim Carrey saying "YABsolutely" in Mr. Popper's Penguins) arrived on the scene and raised hell last week. Backing up Paige, as stooges, and acolytes of a sort since Paige is now the Matriarch of the Women's Evolution (note the company change from "Revolution"), were Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville. It was a cool way to arrive back on the scene and a cool mission statement make. Granted, it was Emma's shtick right before she got fired, and Emma would have been an amazing goon for Paige, but whatever.
This week, Paige's Abso-gang beat up Mickie and Bayley and Sasha and then...sort of just stared down Asuka. I'm not exactly sure how to take that moment exactly. I'm assuming they didn't all climb in the ring to attack Asuka because she's Asuka and WWE wants to portray her as someone who could take out all three if they charged, but mostly it came off as a possible alliance. I'm pretty sure that's not where they're headed, and that Asuka vs. Paige is the endgame (at some point), but that's what it felt like overall. Like they didn't attack her because they want her to join up. We shall see.
ANYHOW, over on SmackDown...what the hell? One night after Paige debuted her trio of tormenters, Ruby Riot(t) led a Blue Brand attack with Sarah Logan and Liv Morgan. We all had many questions. Was Paige somehow behind this ambush too? Were these three even an official group or was it just three new stars wanting to make a name for themselves in their debut week? It was crazy. I get that you can't just give RAW a bump and let SmackDown go stale. You need to have a balance. Things need to pop on Tuesdays too, but having this new trio come directly on the heels of Paige's return, and her trio, just worked to create a bit of a mess, undercutting Paige's resurgence in the process. Paige wasn't the big news of the week. It was Paige AND all the NXT debuts - including the women on SmackDown who have nothing to do with Paige but did exactly what Paige did.
Listen, it would be really cool if Paige was also ultimately behind Ruby's gang. Paige has an issue with the "Four Horsewomen" and two of them are on SmackDown (and Ruby's sneak attack is now allowing Becky Lynch some time off to shoot Marine 6!) so it doesn't exactly make sense for her to only focus on Sasha and Bayley and not the other half as well. It feels like that's not the case now though, with Ruby calling her crew the Riott Squad (the extra "T" is for teamwork yaaaaay!), but it's not outside the realm of possibilities. In fact, the only way this doesn't wind up being a total wash for Paige is if she is behind all of it.

Proceedings: Technical seminar for the Expert Advisory Group to Aquatic Fauna Committee, AOSERP
- Author(s) / Creator(s)
Oil Sands Environmental Study Group realized that one of the better ways to create an atmosphere in which the industrial and environmental research worker could engage in constructive dialogue would be the provision of as much technical information as time would permit. We have learned from previous disagreements that the main obstacle to mutual appreciation and understanding resides in an insufficient appreciation of the technical aspects of oil sands resource extraction technology and development on the environmental side, and a lack of comprehension of desirable environmental protection objectives on the industrial side. You may place this seminar in the larger context of our belief that through provision of adequate technical information, industry can assist environmental researchers in the identification of the environmental problems attending oil sands development that require resolution.

Tomorrow Hearthstone players that favour the EU server over the US server will be able to open their Knights of the Frozen Throne card packs.
Yes, we know "it's unfair" but this is the lay of the land and we just need to cope with the fact that our brethren across the pond get card releases one day earlier than we do.
As you may know all the cards for the Knights of the Frozen Throne expansion have been released and we took some time yesterday to highlight the cards we would definitely be crafting if we didn't get them in the 50 packs we pre-ordered. So armed with some extra dust let's get crafting.
Mindbreaker – Neutral Minion
A three cost card that disables hero powers seems like something rather powerful given the introduction of the Death Knight cards which seem incredibly powerful on paper. It also helps that Mindbreaker is a 2/5 body so getting rid of it might prove tricky for some classes. Given its a Rare card this will cost 100 arcane dust to craft.
Shallow Gravedigger – Neutral Minion
While the Priest Quest from Journey to Un'Goro seems to have fallen out of favour, the introduction of new Deathrattle minions may change that a bit. This little 3/1 body will add a random Deathrattle minion to your hand. Great for Priest's looking to get closer to that quest goal and N'zoth decks that need just a bit more fuel.
Arfus – Legendary Neutral Minion
Let's face facts – four mana for a 2/2 body just sounds bad but, you do get a rather powerful card when Arfus dies. The card belongs to the Beast tribe so it could be rather easy to discover it or have a Jeweled Macaw drop one in your hand. The stats are problematic especially since Potion of Madness exists but it's a risk I'm willing to take.
Archbishop Benedictus – Legendary Priest Minion
Having long suffered as the butt of many jokes, Priest has made something of a comeback in recent months. That may all change however with the introduction of the Archbishop. At a mana cost of seven, 4/6 in stats is bad but shuffling a copy of your opponent's deck into yours might not be. While your ability to draw might be hampered by this card there is one good reason to craft it – memes. And before you jump down my throat for crafting a card for the memes, Mayor Noggenfogger is a card that folks willingly put in their decks, so leave me be.
Bone Drake – Neutral Minion
Being a Priest player there's only one tribe I care about – dragons. Like Brian Kibler I love decks that use these mighty scale covered beasts and we're getting a few new ones in Knights of the Frozen Throne. Leveraging the randomness that Priest seems to be thriving on at the moment I love the idea of Bone Drake. A six mana cost minion with a deathrattle that adds a random dragon to your hand. At 6/5 stats it's pretty big and at 100 dust it sounds like a must craft to me.

Holiday Shopping 2019 Brings Online and Offline Together
It may seem like retail's in retreat, but new research from Verizon Oath — "What to Know About Holiday Shoppers on the Go" — shows that, at least for the season, consumers are blending online and offline holiday shopping for maximum benefits.
Shoppers Plan Holiday Shopping Online and In-store
Just how much has online shopping infiltrated the high shopping days that span late November and December? Most shoppers, in a clear majority of 62%, plan to do holiday shopping both online and in-store. Of the 32% who are choosing one or the other, about a third more (19%) are going all-online than all off-line (13%).
This is how shopping has developed. People still go to stores, but if they can get the deal at home, they do so. In fact, unless you have a compelling reason to drive shoppers into the store, consider using your best deals online and offline to win the sale at every touchpoint.
More Millennials Plan to Shop Online-Only
When we look at those online-only shoppers through the generational lens, it's perhaps not surprising that Millennials are more likely to shop online-only than either Gen X or Baby Boomers. In fact, nearly a quarter of Millennials report they're only going to shop online.
However, 59% of Millennials still plan to shop both offline and online, and 13% still plan to shop in-store only.
No Place Like Phones for the Holidays
Perhaps nowhere is the generational difference more pronounced than when we look at mobile shoppers: 40% of Millennials plan to make a purchase directly from a mobile device, compared to 25% of Gen Xers and 11% of Baby Boomers.
This finding may actually be more revealing than the overall shopping data. Mobile has been a notoriously stubborn channel to get buyers to convert on. But nearly half of Millennials plan to buy directly through their phones over the holiday shopping season (perhaps while they're at another retail establishment).
So the shopping mix is truly omnichannel, and it's important your marketing mix is, too. The battle for holiday dollars will be fought in-store, online and on phones, and if you're not competing on all of them, you're leaving money on the table.

Aluminium present in filter backwash water (FBWW) at the J. Douglas Kline Water Treatment Plant (JDKWTP), located in Halifax, Nova Scotia, represents a challenge for environmental compliance. The aluminum (Al) concentration in the FBWW sometimes exceeds the provincial regulation of guidelines of 184 (µg/L). The utilization of alum (Al2(SO4)314H2O) coagulation during treatment operations is the predominant source of this aluminum. The aim of this study is to investigate utilizing adsorbents and geotextiles to reduce total and dissolved Al concentration and total suspended solids (TSS) in the FBWW. Three adsorbents; calcium oxide (CaO), magnesium oxide (Mg0) and ferric oxide (Fe3O4) and several combinations of these adsorbents were investigated in the study. In addition, Tencate GT500 woven geotextiles were chosen as filter media to remove Al as well as to minimize TSS from the adsorbent-treated FBWW. An optimal dosage of cationic polymer was also considered to assist with the acceleration of floc formation to achieve better removal efficiency. For the testing, 1 mg/L of cationic polymer was utilized considering both pH adjustment (approx. 6.5) and without pH adjustment conditions. Adsorbent dosage was increased stepwise with an addition of 0.1~5.0 gm per liter in the FBWW resulting in removal of total Al between 95% to 98% using MgO and CaO and around 83~89% using ferric oxide. Reduction of TSS was also achieved in these trials. Geotextiles were also used to efficiently remove TSS and removal of total Al concentration was found around 95% from these treated FBWWs. An optimal (i.e. 1 g/L) dosage of a combination of 50/50 mix of CaO and iron oxide adsorbents was found to be an effective dosage resulting from the analysis which can be useful for further recommendations in future.

When Update 3.1 arrives next week, you may notice some changes to certain Premium and tier X vehicles. We've taken a hard look at characteristics, prices, and the inclusion of some tanks, and adjusted them for better balance. You'll find a list of these changes below, as well as comments from developer Mark Ivanov, a member of our balance team, in yellow.
Premium Vehicles Available for Gold
We'll be removing both the T-15 and M22 Locust from the tech tree and replacing them with vehicles the higher-tier Pz.Kpfw. V/IV and T23E3. They're more suited for farming currency, and we think they'll be a better choice for new players. The T-15 and M22 Locust will still be available occasionally in Store bundles.
We've also increased the price of the Valentine II from 1,000 to 1,500. Many newcomers purchase this vehicle, even though its play style isn't the best for them. It's expected that shifts focus to the Pz.Kpfw. S35 739 (f), which is easier for new players.
Profitability Increase
With the new light tanks in Update 3.1, we decided to increase the profitability of the following vehicles:
Spähpanzer SP I C: 24% increased profitability Spähpanzer Ru 251: 18% increased profitability, 28% decreased post-battle repairs German Guns
Due to an error, the same gun on different vehicles might have different research costs. The following vehicles have been adjusted for consistent research costs:
Nashorn: 8.8cm Pak L/56 decreased from 9,500 to 11,210 XP
VK 36.01 (H): 8.8cm Kw.K. 36 L/56 increased from 9,500 to 11,210 XP
Balance Changes T34 and T34 Independence Reduced aiming time from 3.4 to 3.1 seconds. Reduced dispersion coefficients when firing on the move, as well as during turret traverse and while turning.
"In terms of their characteristics, these vehicles were left behind and we decided to make firing with them feel a bit more comfortable."
M46 Patton Reduced 105mm T5E1M2 gun dispersion:
0.42 to 0.4m with stock turret.
0.4 to 0.38m with top turret.
"We're increasing the accuracy of the top gun to make this vehicle stand out a bit more compared to other tier IX medium tanks."
M48A1 Patton Increased cupola armor to 177mm. Increased armor of the gun mantlet to 177mm. Increased rear side armor from 50 to 76mm. Increased top speed from 45 to 48 km/h. Removed 90mm M41 and 105mm T5E1M2 guns. Added 105mm M68 gun.
"The Patton is the weakest medium tank in its tier, which is caused by its inability to absorb damage; it's bad at sidescraping, its turret is weak and has a cupola that's easily penetrated. That's why we decided to improve the armor of this vehicle."
E 50 Ausf. M Increased armor of the turret front and gun mantlet from 185 to 250mm.
"Playing this vehicle didn't feel 'German' enough, so we made a decision to increase its armor protection."
FV4202 Increased the top speed from 40 to 50 km/h.
"This vehicle isn't so bad in terms of protection, but it's too slow for a medium tank."
IS-7 Reduced traverse speed from 25 to 23 deg/s.
"To make the IS-7 less versatile and make it look more like a heavy tank, we decided to decrease its traverse speed."

Museum Rutherglen Muscadelle 100+ years
All Saints Museum Release Rutherglen Muscadelle is a masterful blend of the richest and rarest 100 plus year-old stocks in Australia.
We wait, and we wait, and we wait. We wait for the fruit to ripen. We wait for the raisined berries to swell as we macerate the crushed fruit. Then we wait again, in this case for many decades, for the wine to reach its optimum level of maturity and intensity.
First the fruit is picked, destemmed and crushed into a vat. Some of the berries are so laden with sugar that they resemble the sultanas in fruitcake or Moscatels on a cheese platter. Over several days the juice released from less shrivelled grapes cause the wrinkled berries to plump up. Eventually the fermentation begins and it is time to press off before any precious sugar is consumed. Pressing is slow and laborious as we want to extract every last drop of the syrupy nectar. Clean, neutral spirit is added to the juice to stop any further fermentation and we allow the wine to settle. Then it is put to barrel where the alchemy truly begins…
"Magic. Excellent walnut and plum-pudding colour with an olive-green tinge. What's extraordinary, given the Museum release has an average age of 100+ years, is just how fresh it is. Toffee brittle-flecked with lemon and orange zest, beautiful balance of tamarind tartness and freshness to the palm sugar sweetness. But the overall effect is not sweet, instead it's an exercise in complexity and depth of flavour. Breathe this, taste this and reflect on the century past."
Jane Faulkner, Halliday Wine Companion, August 2018
"150th anniversary bottling. An extraordinary wine: the deep amber to nut-brown colour coats the interior of the glass, and it possesses an explosive bouquet of breathtaking character and complexity. It has enough freshness to still exhibit intense muscat fruit, combined with the rancio characters of long-time barrel aging. There are dried fig, raisin, prune and old leather aromas. The taste is very concentrated and liqueury, rich and almost luscious, the balancing influence of acidity and rancio helping to dry the finish and leave the mouth clean. The aftertaste lasts for minutes. A great old wine presented in delightfully fresh and vibrant condition." Huon Hooke, The Real Review, February 2014

This just in from the FROGGS:
Thursday August 8th at 7:15pm
Carroll Street bridge, Gowanus
There will be a rally on Thursday night at the Carroll Street bridge to protest the Lightstone 12 story, 700 unit project on the toxic Gowanus Canal and publicly air our grievances. Bill Thompson is scheduled to attend and will be speaking with concerned community members. The media has also been invited. This is not a rally to endorse Thompson's mayoral candidacy; instead, it is a chance to bring broader attention to our issue of irresponsible development (which endangers scale, zoning, schools, transit and health and safety) in the context of the mayoral race.
It is extremely urgent that as many of you attend as possible. Please invite your neighbors as well. We need to show all our elected representatives how important this issue is to our community. They've already heard from the developers and their lobbyists; now it's our turn to be heard. This is the protest that will hopefully help bring attention to our issue in the media and the mayoral race.
Please be there and bring the kids and a friend.
And please pass along this flyer!

First, Doctor Lock makes me think of Professor Key; like the E.A. Poe story "Dr. Tar and Professor Feather", they just seem to go together. So I think he is looking for the key to unlocking his further potential, and has found it in a new and bigger wand. Perhaps there is undiscovered potential in that paint brush, which is aligned in front of that star on the wall so that it looks like a magic wand as well. I looked at the Ace of wands and the other wand court cards and I find the repetition of the club interesting. Perhaps it means that wand energy that isn't grounded will dissipate. That it is there to be used for concrete objectives. The King has a huge club and a very small wand. Perhaps with him a little inspiration can move mountains. Doctor Lock goes for the bigger wand. Maybe he realizes he has a lot of expanding to do and much to experience before he can be like Ludwig. Also, the club's positions are interesting. The King's is on his gut, the Queen's on the elbow of the arm she probably paints with, the Knight's at the apex of the heart, and Dr. Lock's on his forehead, or third eye. There is also the question mark and the die. I think he is willing to act on his inspirations, intuitions and hunches; to take chances and see what happens.
Edited to add: now that I've actually looked up the Poe story, the correct title is "The System of Doctor Tarr and Professor Fether".

Mr. Michael F. Dolan
Industrial Hygienist
Vulcan Materials Company
P.O. Box 545
Wichita, Kansas 67201
Dear Mr. Dolan:
This is in response to your letter of October 4, 1976, in which you requested clarification of several parts of 29 CFR 1910.1017, the Vinyl Chloride Standard.
"Massive release" of vinyl chloride as used in 1910.1017(b)(5) to define "emergency" means a physically imposing and impressive gaseous release irrespective of considerations of toxicity. Typical concentrations associated with a massive release of vinyl chloride cannot be pinned down because of the diverse nature of the surroundings in which they may occur. Massive release of vinyl chloride is recognized by the event of gaseous vinyl chloride escaping under positive pressure with concomitant liquid vinyl chloride spray generation, and/or cloud formation, and/or ice clump formation at the point of escape.
A massive release of vinyl chloride is regarded as an emergency because it creates a potential for fire and/or explosion, and/or for acute toxication of employees, and/or for predisposing employees to future development of disease such as cancer.
In order to clarify the term "hazardous release" used in 1910.1017(i)(1), the clause it is used in must be explained. The clause establishes one of the provisions that must be included in a written operational plan for emergency situations. Specifically, the plan must require employees used to combat emergencies or to correct existing massive releases of vinyl chloride to be equipped in accordance with paragraph 1910.1017(h). More precise terminology might have been used in 1910.1017(i)(1), i.e., "emergencies" instead "hazardous operations" and "massive releases" instead of "hazardous releases."
The protective equipment required for employees engaged in hazardous operations needs to be worn during the release of vinyl chloride, during the period that the air in their work space remains contaminated with vinyl chloride, and during periods where there is a potential for the release of vinyl chloride to suddenly and unpredictably occur.
I hope you find the information provided helpful.
Richard P. Wilson,
Deputy Director Federal

Face it, you're not gonna squeeze a promised release date out of the team, even if you start spreading rumors. Am i spreading anything? i just told you that i felt MTA:DM would be released not starting any rumors. Share this post Link to post
