of Montreal Unplug, Cover The Beatles
of Montreal work harder than you. With more ideas than some bands have in a career stuffed into Hissing Fauna..., Skeletal Lamping, and their dazzling live shows, it would be OK for oM to set aside the instruments for a minute. Of course that is not how oM have ever worked, and so we are already seeing new songs on this tour, with the gaps in dates stopped with whatever radio or video studio sessions they can find. Here are two, one for 89.7 WTMD and the other for 90.7 WFUV (I miss call letters), which see B.P. and KB once again go acoustic for "Beware Our Nubile Miscreants" alongside a cover of the Beatles' White Album classic "I'm So Tired."Continue reading of Montreal Unplug, Cover The Beatles... - Source

Editor's Note: The following is a statement from the DSA BDS and Palestine Solidarity Working Group. Mondoweiss occasionally publishes press releases and statements from organizations in an effort to draw attention to overlooked issues.
At the DSA National Convention in 2017, our national body expressed our support for an international call for justice and voted to endorse the Palestinian call for boycott, divestment, and sanctions (BDS) as a global strategy of solidarity with the Palestinian struggle for freedom.
The vote was a historic turning point for the DSA. For many years, we had been silent on Israel's long-standing occupation of Palestinian territories, its colonization and annexation in violation of international law and its imposition of apartheid throughout the country.
Our 2017 BDS resolution called for more than just an affirmation of the Palestinian right to self-determination. It called for us to stand in solidarity with Palestinian civil society, alongside a wide range of social justice and labor groups who had already endorsed the BDS call — the United Electrical Workers, the Connecticut AFL-CIO, UAW Locals 2865, 2110, 2322, AFT Local 3220, the National Lawyers Guild, the American Studies Association, the African Literature Association, the Native American and Indigenous Studies Association, the Association for Asian American Studies, Jewish Voice for Peace, among others.
The resolution also connected BDS with other movements for justice internationally, from DSA's opposition to South African apartheid to our other current political work against U.S. imperialism in the Middle East (where our financial support and military invervention are used to violate human rights in Palestine and beyond). By supporting BDS, DSA opposes "on principle … all forms of discrimination, including antisemitism and Islamophobia."
Finally, the resolution noted that "socialists have a responsibility to side with the oppressed and are committed to their unconditional liberation."
More, then, than just an argument for DSA's opposition to Israeli apartheid, the vote was a broad statement of principles to guide DSA work, and a mandate to place the role of Israel in U.S. foreign policy, and U.S. imperialism, more at the center of that work.
Since 2017, reasons for DSA to more publicly and visibly articulate its support for BDS and Palestinian liberation have only been redoubled by world events.
For example, the Trump Administration moved the U.S. Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, an egregious insult to Palestinian claims to Jerusalem as indigenous land.
Conditions in Palestine for Palestinians, especially in Gaza, continue to deteriorate. We have now reached 2020, the year by which the United Nations predicted two years ago that Gaza would become "uninhabitable."
Meanwhile, authoritarian states around the world — from the Bolsonaro regime in Brazil, to the Duterte regime in the Philippines, to the Trump Administration — continue to point to Israel as a positive model of a militarized and ethnonationalist state.
Trump also recently launched a drone strike that killed Iranian General Qasem Suleimani, an action that ratcheted up regional and global tensions while affirming U.S. support for Israel, chief among those calling for aggression against Iran.
And most recently, Trump released his vaunted "peace plan," which legitimates Israel's annexation of the Jordan Valley and territories elsewhere in the West Bank. The plan also calls for Palestinians to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. The plan offers a "two-state solution" that would involve a demilitarized collection of Palestinian bantustans amid de facto approval of Israel's apartheid settler-colonial state, with nothing approaching Palestinian sovereignty. Unsurprisingly, Palestinians and Palestinian leadership have already rejected the plan.
For these reasons, we urge DSA to recommit to its work affirming BDS strategies in support of Palestinian liberation. We offer these specific suggestions to the DSA national leadership, DSA chapters and YDSA chapters, and to individual members:
- YDSA chapters can make an intentional effort to integrate their work with college-based Students for Justice in Palestine and Palestine Solidarity Committee chapters. In the past five years, there have been more than 200 examples of boycott, divestment, sanctions resolutions passing, many of them authored by SJP chapters in combination with campus student governments. There are now also more than 250 SJP chapters on college campuses across the United States. Linking DSA closely to campus BDS work will "reaffirm" Palestine solidarity as a priority for the national organization.
- DSA can participate in and actively take the lead in organizing newly rekindled anti-war protests and speak directly to U.S. support for Israel within those protests. Israel remains the primary recipient of U.S. military aid and a symbol of U.S. efforts to maintain planetary hegemony. The road to war in the U.S. invariably passed through this alliance.
- DSA can forcefully pressure political candidates running for office, especially those who seek DSA endorsement, to oppose all efforts to pass legislation that would ban, penalize and even criminalize boycotts of Israel and its enablers, and to fully and openly endorse the demands of the BDS call. The open support for BDS from recently elected representatives Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib should give further incentive to DSA to push elected officials to backthe demands of the BDS call. This includes presidential candidate Bernie Sanders.
- DSA can forcefully pressure elected officials to eliminate military aid to Israel. This idea, already floated by New York representative Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, is critical to weakening U.S. imperialism in the Middle East, the architecture of Israel's apartheid state and the U.S. war-making machine.
- DSA can work within existing labor organizations, political associations and community groups to educate and agitate for solidarity with Palestine. The example of trade unions like the United Electrical Workers supporting BDS shows the huge, untapped potential of a labor-Palestine solidarity alliance. It is a reminder of the critical role trade unions within and without South Africa (like the Coalition of South African Trade Unions) played in supporting and implementing the South African anti-apartheid campaign. Memories of U.S. dockworkers refusing to offload cargo from South African ships attempting to enter U.S. ports should kindle efforts to urge teachers unions, service workers unions and trade unions especially in industries like logistics to throw their support — and labor — behind freedom for Palestine.
- Finally, DSA can be vigilant in defending BDS organizers — especially Muslim, Palestinian and Arab students — from attack by the forces of the U.S. state. The Trump administration's Department of Education's recent decision to open an investigation into allegations of "antisemitism" at New York University because of Students for Justice in Palestine activism against Zionism puts wide swaths of people at risk for standing up to Israeli apartheid. DSA can work in concert with academic groups like the Middle East Studies Association, which recently criticized the investigation as an attempt to silence criticism of Israel at NYU.
DSA has made important leaps forward since 2017 in bringing attention to Israel's occupation and the fight for Palestinian self-determination led by Palestinians. The next step is a commitment at all levels of the organization to make both a priority. DSA members are encouraged to join the DSA Palestine Solidarity Working Group by writing to firstname.lastname@example.com.

Just read a review, apparently Malwarebytes isn't battery friendly for android devices. I removed it since i have Avast anyways.Indicators
Verdict: Secure, but take into consideration for improvements for when a PC is not readily accessible.
- Recommend a form of cloud backup for documents or downloaded files.
- Wasted resources and storage space used by multiple security apps. Remember Android is not Windows.
- No Data Protection (Encryption)
Fingerprint leaves you even more vulnerable. Somebody can access your phone whilst asleep, force you to open your phone with your fingerprint or clone your fingerprint. Whereas a PIN can come in millions of combinations which makes it harder to bruteforce since repeated entering of an incorrect PIN will lock the phone. As for unknown sources, some useful apps never make it into the play store, that's why i've left it enabled. With an anti-virus installed and only downloading from legitimate websites, i don't see the risk.App lock is a waste of time and annoying. What I suggest is learning how to prevent people from getting in your phone in the first place. One step to doing that is encrypting your phone. I believe the newer phones already come encrypted but check to be sure. Another thing you can do is using fingerprint instead of a pin. This would prevent anyone from getting in, in the first place. I also highly recommend disabling unknown sources. That one option is the only thing that makes android unsecure (beside exploits). When you disable that it's just as vulnerable as a iphone.

Reverend Barber's Moral Monday Roadshow hits New York:
@RevDrBarber is coming to #MoralMonday #Albany in 3 days! Buses coming from around NY: http://t.co/3N4iZZKrtK #WeCantWait
— LRC of NYS (@LaborReligion) January 9, 2015
The event is January 12th (today) and this is how the Facebook page associated with it labels and describes it – complete with busing schedule:
Moral Monday to Fight for Fairness in Education Where: Alliance for Quality Education of New York 94 Central Ave, Albany, New York Million Dollar Staircase, New York State Capitol, Albany Billionaires bought Albany and now they want to take over our schools. We are not going to let that happen.
AQE is partnering with Citizen Action of New York, Make the Road NY, New York Communities for Change, the UFT, NYSUT, Strong Economy for All and Coalition for Education Justice. Contact Chad Radock at 978-376-8178 or email@example.com. NEED A RIDE?
Buses are leaving from the following communities: Brentwood (LI) Brooklyn Bronx Buffalo Kingston Manhattan Newburgh New Paltz Rochester Roslyn (LI) Call Chad Radock of AQE at (518) 288 – 5708 to find out where the buses are leaving and to reserve your seat!!
Here's the flier at AQE, touting millionaires corrupting education with their dollars.
Ask AQE where they stand on Common Core. These people are ridiculous hypocrites only concerned with the testing aspects of the Core, which impact teachers and their subsequent union affiliations and their wallets.
Some tidbits about AQE
- Their main thrust is 'fiscal equity'.
- Their spokesperson is actress Cynthia Nixon of Sex and the City fame.
- Per the donation page, "AQE is a 501(c)4 organization, and therefore your donation is not tax exempt." AQE's EIN # is 22-3810450. View their 990 forms and information here. The 2013 990 filing shows that Citizens Action of NY and Public Policy and Education Foundation are under the AQE umbrella. The 2013 filing shows AQE pulled in over $381k in donations. View the 2012 filing; note the huge drop off in donations from the prior year 2011 of just under $618k to $334k.
AQE thinks Astorino's opposition to Common Core was a 'political stunt':
Anti-Core line a political stunt by @RobAstorino – @BEastonNY in @AlbanyLG He AND Cuomo fail to address Ed issues. http://t.co/ueg5LpW448
— AQE New York (@AQE_NY) July 16, 2014
Gleaned from their 'policy' page:
* Solidly anti-charter.
* Utilizes the 'school to prison pipeline' catch phrase that we see Barber's various outlets stoking here in North Carolina.
* Big corporations like Romney's Bain Capital are bad, Bill Gates is good.
* Pre-K proponent.
WHOIS of the site reveals it is registered to Billy Easton:
Registrant Name:Billy Easton
Registrant Organization: Alliance for Quality Education of New York
Registrant Street: 94 Central Ave
Registrant City:Albany
Registrant State/Province:NY
Registrant Postal Code:12206
Registrant Country:US
Registrant Phone:+1.5184325315
Registrant Fax: +1.5184349498
Registrant Email:firstname.lastname@example.com
Mr. Easton is a fan of the Moral Monday method of getting arrested to garner media attention and is quite proud of that.
Billy Easton is a community and union organizer per his profile at 'Justice Works":
Since 2005 Mr. Easton has been the Executive Director of AQE. He brings 30 years of experience in community and union organizing and a wealth of experience in strategy, media relations, politics and legislative activity to his work at AQE. Billy provides significant leadership to the organizing, policy, media relations and strategic work of AQE and partner organizations. (See More)
Easton and AQE are described and subsequently dismantled in a brutal article by the New York Post title, Pigs in Saints' Clothing. Excerpt below, which later compares them to the Wisconsin protests debacle:
Walk just about any capitol corridor in Albany, and odds are you'll trip over lobbyist-without-portfolio Billy Easton, of the fraudulently mislabeled Alliance for Quality Education.
We say without portfolio because, while rare is the legislator whom Billy hasn't buttonholed lately, he has yet to register as a lobbyist this year.
And we say fraudulent because AQE simply is a creature of New York state's primary teachers unions — and thus its connection to quality education is laughably tangential.
Further down in the NY Post piece, Citizen action is mentioned. Citizen Action also is in the Moral Monday Facebook description mentioned earlier. Relevant section:
AQE shares an Albany address with Citizen Action, the local affiliate of USAction, a self-professed "progressive, grass-roots" organization aimed at electing left-liberal candidates, enacting significant hikes in both taxes and spending, and increasing the number of public-sector — i.e., heavily unionized — jobs.

DSM-IV Clinical Definition ADHD
For those seeking a textbook definition of ADHD, The American Psychiatric Association's DSM-IV manual identifies 18 key symptoms, grouped into two different clusters: Inattention and Hyperactivity/Impulsivity. To receive a diagnosis of ADHD, you must have six out of the nine symptoms on one or both of the clusters, and your life must be impaired in some way by these symptoms.
Cluster #1: Symptoms of ADHD
- often fails to give close attention to details or makes careless mistakes in schoolwork, work or other activities
- often has difficulty sustaining attention in tasks or play activities
- often does not seem to listen when spoken to directly
- often does not follow through on instructions and fails to finish schoolwork, chores, or duties in the workplace (not due to oppositional behavior or failure to understand instructions)
- often has difficulty organizing tasks and activities
- often avoids, dislikes or is reluctant to engage in tasks that require sustained mental effort
- often loses things necessary for tasks or activities
- is often easily distracted by extraneous stimuli
- is often forgetful in daily activities
Cluster #2: Symptoms of ADHD
- often fidgets with hands or feet or squirms in seat
- often leaves seat in classroom or in other situations in which remaining seated is expected
- often runs about or climbs excessively when it is inappropriate (in adolescents or adults, may be limited to subjective feelings of restlessness)
- often has difficulty playing or engaging in leisure activities quietly
- is often "on the go" or acts as if "driven by a motor"
- often talks excessively
- often blurts out answers before questions have been completed
- often has difficulty awaiting turn
- often interrupts or intrudes on others

He has broken all records ( barring one first class domestic cricket one ), and has stamped his authority on the game. Time to walk away? I would say yes, if only not to try and make a comeback like MSC. That would ruin it for me atleast. He can walk away after that one last explosive, signature style century and Ill give him a standing ovation in my living room.... The Gods need rest too you see. Whats your dig on it?

[V Report] Stray Kids' 19-year-olds share memories
Broadcast date: Sept. 4-5
Starring: Stray Kids, Tomorrow X Together, GOT7, Pentagon
Four same-aged members of Stray Kids took to V Live for a chat with fans.
|(Naver's V Live)
"This is the first time we are livestreaming together, just four of us," said Seungmin.
Asked what it would be like if they were to become roommates, Han said that Hyunjin would be watching television dramas all the time, Seungmin would be working out and Felix would be playing games.
"You would probably be sleeping," the others said to Han.
They recalled their previous residence where they had shared rooms with I.N.
"I used to reproach Felix a lot whenever he stepped on my bed to climb up to his," said Seungmin.
Felix said somewhat ruefully that he has been using the upper bunk bed ever since he joined.
"I.N and I were the worst!" said Hyunjin, reminding everyone of the time the two slept in a small room in front of the bathroom and how they had to put up with noise and humidity every time someone showered.

Tomorrow X Together talks about recent duo segment
Soobin and Beomgyu of Tomorrow X Together talked about their recently aired virtual reality experience and a visit to a seafood restaurant, via V Live.
|(Naver's V Live)
Soobin said he had tried to tailor the outing, their second as a pair, to Beomgyu's preferences.
"It was perfectly to my tastes," said Beomgyu, adding that the virtual reality games were so realistic.
Soobin agreed, saying that even though he is not afraid of heights, he was very scared during the game played high up in the air.
The duo liked the shooting game that revived animals with vaccines.
"I liked the purpose of the game: how we were bringing them back to life instead of killing them," said Beomgyu.
The two were also very happy to visit an all-you-can-eat seafood restaurant, telling fans that seafood is their favorite.
"Actually, I tend to focus on sweets and desserts at a buffet," confessed Soobin.

GOT7's JB, Youngjae take helicopter tour of NYC
GOT7 shared footage from its day off after the band's concert in New York in June.
|(Naver's V Live)
"How do you feel about getting on a helicopter?" JB asked Youngjae on their way to a helicopter tour. As they approached the helipad, JB spotted a hot dog cart and said he wanted one.
"Get one! We have plenty of time," said Youngjae, telling the leader who had no cash that he would buy him one.
"I am so moved," said JB.
"Looking up close, it looks kind of scary. Maybe I shouldn't have said yes," said Youngjae while JB happily finished his hot dog.
In the waiting area, Youngjae was quiet from nervousness, confiding that he felt more tense than before going onstage. On the other hand, JB was eager to hop onboard.
Once the helicopter began to fly, both were amazed at the view of the city. They did not forget to share the moment with fans, checking if they had seen the Statue of Liberty.

Pentagon checks in from Toronto
Wooseok and Jinho of Pentagon livestreamed from their hotel room at midnight in Toronto after the band's concert.
|(Naver's V Live)
"We had so much fun. The audience sang together for us before the concert began, and it was so good. And their Korean was perfect," said Jinho.
"Everyone sang even 'Round 2.' It was amazing," said Wooseok, referring to a bonus track from the group's recently released ninth EP, "SUM(ME:R)."
"We were supposed to arrive here yesterday in the evening, so that we can sleep and do a rehearsal before the concert. But the airplane returned with an issue, and we were kept waiting from another delay with the flight. So we had to rush home and pack before coming here. I don't even know what is in my suitcase," said Jinho.
The two assured fans that they were all fine, apologizing for worrying them. Their only concern had been whether they would make it before the show, and they made it with just enough time to rehearse, said Jinho.

OAKLAND — McClymonds High School is closed indefinitely after a chemical linked to increased cancer risk was found in groundwater below the West Oakland campus.
School was canceled Thursday and officials do not expect to resume class until next week, or until tests show the chemical did not seep into the air inside classrooms, posing a much greater health threat to the school's nearly 400 students than contamination in water or soil.
The extent of the risk is unknown, although Oakland Unified School District leaders said the issue was not found in the school's drinking water. The district is calling on state regulators to help trace the origin of the contamination, which they said is caused by a chemical known as trichlorethylene, or TCE. The chemical, typically used as an industrial solvent, is classified as a "known human carcinogen," and long-term exposure has been linked to myriad health complications, including liver damage and cancer.
"It's not a problem to be in the groundwater — the problem for us would be if it's venting above ground in our buildings," Oakland Unified School District spokesman John Sasaki said at a press conference Thursday. "The community's health and wellbeing is paramount for all of us. We want to make sure the proper testing is done in the entire neighborhood."
The Myrtle Street campus is located in a section of West Oakland where homes and schools sit alongside metal shops, auto shops, and other industrial spaces. Records from the state Department of Toxic Substances Control records show multiple active cleanup sites within blocks of the campus, including at least three where TCE contamination was found. The nearest of those sites is a former plating shop on site on San Pablo Avenue, about a block from McClymonds.
DTSC records show a leak was discovered on the site, then operating as Lane Metal Finishers, in May 2003 and TCE was found in the soil. The current owner of the property, which is now an auto body shop, could not be reached Thursday.
"Is it possible that's the location? Yes, but we don't know yet," Sasaki said.
Discovery of TCE on the McClymonds campus was a shock, said Dilan Roe, chief of Alameda County Healthcare Services Agency's land water division. The extent of the contamination on the school campus was discovered Friday, when school district and county health officials met to review results of a groundwater test. The district is obligated to conduct such tests to monitor soil where a 4,000-gallon heating-oil tank located between tennis courts and a swim building was removed in 1996, state records show.
But the site was considered low risk, Roe said, and had no history of TCE in the soil or groundwater.
West Oakland Councilwoman Lynette Gibson McElhaney and school board member Jumoke Hinton Hodge said the contamination is yet another example of decades of environmental injustice in West Oakland. News of the contamination follows a 2019 report that found elevated lead levels in school water fountains and faucets across the district, including at McClymonds.
"We have lead … we have plumes … we have raised garden beds so we can grow vegetables," Hodge said. At the same time, she and McElhaney also urged residents not to panic, noting there is no data suggesting the contamination at the school has extended to the neighborhood.
Pastor Anthony Jenkins Sr. of Taylor Memorial United Methodist Church said Thursday that the church would be open to McClymonds students during the school's closure.
News of a carcinogenic chemical found on campus could bring back painful memories for students, Jenkins said. The school recently lost two popular former football players to cancer — Darryl Aikens, who died of leukemia in 2017, and Ramone Sanders, who died of bone cancer last year — though there is no evidence linking the current TCE contamination to those cases.
Kimberly Reed, 50, of West Oakland, went to the church Thursday evening to attend a hastily convened community town hall. Her daughter is a ninth-grader at McClymonds, and Reed said Aikens, the former Mack standout football player and honors student who died in 2017 of leukemia, was her cousin.
"Right now, we're actually waiting on his mom," Reed said. "She told me that she's really having some issues and dealing with that, and all of the events that have occurred over the last 24 hours."
Reed was seeking answers, she said.
"What's gonna happen? I mean, what are they, what's gonna happen? I think about for my daughter, for school next week," she said. "You know, if it is something, what's gonna happen, you know, 10 years down the line? I don't know. I just don't know. It's unknown, so I'm just trying to find out as much information as I can."
Flyers advertised meetings for parents and students to get updates about the closure on Monday at 8:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. at the West Oakland Middle School library.
Jenkins emphasized Thursday night just how jarring the news of the closure is for families.
"A few of us here have very raw feelings about the situation," he said. "I'm sure we can sympathize with those feelings. So I have a laser focus on parents that have hurt.
"This has affected a lot of people. This has affected parents. This has affected students. This has affected neighbors. This has also affected the teachers."
Staff writer Annie Sciacca contributed reporting.

What could possibly be nicer on a hot summer's day than to sit down to a delicious spread of cold meats and cheeses, freshly baked bread and a glass of crisp chilled white wine? Man's love of cured meats goes back centuries, although back in time it was driven more by necessity than taste – meat was cured to ensure longevity, particularly on long journeys with infrequent food provision.
Today cured meats are considered an art form, and rightly so. Charcuterie and artisan meats is a thriving industry, made more exciting every year as experts experiment with new flavours and tastes. And here at N1, leading suppliers of wholesale meat South Africa, it's no different. N1 cater for all kinds of cold meat needs, from the traditional to the new – here are just five of the meats available from their high-quality range:
- Pastrami – highly seasoned smoked beef, typically cut into thin slices
- Russians – actually based on Kolbasa, a Russian variety of sausage, but only called a Russian here in South Africa
- Macon – a portmanteau word of 'mutton' and 'bacon' and prepared in a similar way to bacon where the meat is either dry cured with lots of salt or wet cured with brine and then smoked
- Mortadella – a product originally of Bologna, it's a large Italian sausage or luncheon meat made of finely hashed or ground, cured pork and flavoured with a variety of spices
- Parma Ham – also originally from Parma in Italy, this is a distinctively flavoured, long dry-cured ham which is similar in appearance and taste to prosciutto, although the latter has a finer taste
So popular are cured meats that a Canadian company called the Carnivore Club actually began a subscription-based e-commerce business which delivers a selection of premium quality charcuterie to clients in Canada, the US, the EU and Australia. Included in the monthly box are between four and six handcrafted cured meats from top artisans. Each box is themed around a particular style of cured meat and they've even featured South African biltong as one of their themes.
Imagine that – imagine having the most delicious box of cured meats delivered to your door every month. As an individual we can but dream, but as a retailer or restauranteur, you don't have to dream, because you have the services of N1 for all your cold meat requirements – as leading Johannesburg and Cape Town meat wholesalers you can rely on their quality, service and delivery at all times for all your charcuterie needs.

So there I was in Orbital comics getting some of the Droids to sign my copy of Day of Chaos: Fallout when I spotted these two on the wall and just had to buy them. The infamous 'banned' story-lines that nearly got 2000AD into serious legal trouble and have never been reprinted in any of the trades. They received the late 1970s equivalent of a 'cease and desist' letter from one of the companies involved and had to make an agreement to print an apology and never reprint the stories rather than face what could have been an expensive lawsuit. On a recent podcast Keith Richardson claimed that the stories themselves were not all that good and fans would be pretty disappointed by them if they were reprinted. Was he right?
Cover comparison. We have Dredd getting chomped on a Mike McMahon cover versus a dangling Dredd by Brian Bolland. Both covers feature the trademark characters that provoked the trouble. Although McMahon produced some of the all time great Dredd covers this isn't one of them and Bolland wins out.
Inside Prog 72 we have the second part of the Burger Wars storyline with Dredd and Spikes Harvey Rotten in big trouble before Judge Jack and the Land Raider save the day, In Prog 77 Dredd is plucked out of long grass by the Jolly Green Giant in the first part of the Soul Food story. Several other copyright characters appear as well. Neither of them are that bad as episodes in themselves, and certainly no more crazy than anything else in the Cursed Earth saga, or the Judge Child quest. Although Bolland wins the cover battle the interior art from McMahon and the fact that it's John Wagner on script duties for Burger Wars just gives this one the edge.
Elsewhere in these two issues we have a Mach Zero story by Steve MacManus and Mike Donaldson, Ant Wars by Gerry Finley-Day and Jose Luis Ferrer, Inferno by Ton Tully and Belardinelli, two episodes of Dan Dare by Chris Lowder and Dave Gibbons, a Future Shock by Chris Stevens and Pierre Frisano, and another Ant Wars by Finley-Day and Alfonso Azpiri,
Prog 77 also features the second episode of the Robo-Hunter: Verdus story by John Wagner, Ian Gibson and Jose Luis Ferrer. This is the one where faster than light travel de-ages Sam Slade and also turns the ship's Commander Kidd into his cynical, wisecracking baby sidekick. An important moment but Ferrer's straight forward artwork lacks the punchy humour of the Ian Gibson stuff.
Honestly they are both pretty good issues by themselves and I haven't even got to the beauty of Dave Gibbons' art on Dan Dare yet. Prog 72 has a Whittle score of three, and 77 has a solitary one. Worthy additions to my (or anyone's) collection.

When event production company owner Tommy D decided to bring his uber popular drag show from Vancouver to Victoria, he didn't know if it would appeal to audiences on the island, much less break the company's record by selling out within one hour – yet that's exactly what happened.
On Saturday, January 19th, the Royal Theatre & McPherson Playhouse played host to a sold-out show featuring some of the most talented and fabulous drag artists from Victoria and Vancouver – plus a couple of out-of-town international superstars.
For the first time ever, event production company TFD Presents crossed over from Vancouver with mainland drag performers and RuPaul's Drag Race alumni Farrah Moan and Vanessa "Vanjie" Mateo to bring 'It's Just Drag' to audiences in town – and we can, in fact, confirm that Victoria LOVED it!
Leaving it all on stage
The performances ranged from well-choreographed group dance numbers to exaggerated lip-syncs, from comedic acts to outrageous surprises – like the performance of Eddi Licious, who tied a butt plug to helium balloons and let the spectacle float all the way to the ceiling of the theatre.
Unfortunately, Victoria Buzz was unable to decipher whether this contraption was recovered manually, or if it was allowed to drop down of its own accord once the balloons deflated (and if so, did it hit someone on its way down? Guess we'll never know).
The two-hour show was tied together with bursts of comedy, courtesy of host, the Vancouver-based drag queen Joan-E, who at one point introduced an interactive element to the evening by inviting volunteers to take the stage with her, much to the spectators' delight.
With the all-ages audience cheering their lungs out for the performers on stage, we decided to take a trip behind the curtains for a tête-à-tête with some of the show's biggest stars!
Farrah's first time in Victoria
To begin with, we spoke to one of the two headliners of the event, 25-year-old Farrah Moan (offstage name Cameron Clayton) who became internationally renowned after appearing on Season 9 of the iconic Emmy-winning series, RuPaul's Drag Race.
The surprisingly down to earth celebrity visited Victoria for the first time on Saturday and was, unsurprisingly, blown away by the view while catching the ferry over to the island.
Although Moan was only in town for one day, she seemed eager to return and explore Victoria – and, judging by the uproarious cheers caused by her stage presence alone, we'd say this is welcome news to audience members who were clearly hoping for an encore!
About RuPaul's Drag Race and managing mental health
A future stage visit isn't entirely out of the cards, as Farrah confirmed to us her preference of live shows over televised performances.
"I personally feel like I shine a lot more when I'm doing my own thing because when I do a show, my numbers are choreographed [and] thought out, versus on RuPaul's Drag Race [where] you have an hour to put something together and you have to do what they're telling you to do," she said.
Nevertheless, she was thrilled to compete in Season 4 of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars edition until her recent elimination.
"Unfortunately my time was cut short and I feel like [in] All Stars, it [was] a little bit harder to showcase yourself because if anyone sees you as a threat silently, they could have a plot out to get you. As we saw, that kind of was the case with a couple of girls."
Here, she makes a reference to the dramatic altercation with co-star Gia Gunn who approached Farrah on-air to rehash a conflict that occurred before the filming of All Stars Season 4 – an issue that Farrah herself believed to be long forgotten, until it was brought up again.
However, for the most part, Farrah's relationships with fellow Drag Race alumni have been far less bitter.
"I'm friends with almost every single girl that was on the season and I consider them as sort of my best friends, so we're always on the phone … and we get to travel the world together. The sisterhood of the Season 9 girls makes the whole 'on-the-move-all-the-time' lifestyle a lot easier."
And while competing on a widespread, internationally acclaimed platform may be the ultimate dream come true, it's not all sunshine and rainbows when it comes to prioritizing mental health.
"I have actually been struggling with my mental health [over] the past couple of years. My therapist has told me that I've had some traumas earlier in my life that I've repressed. Going on national TV and then being succumbed to everyone's negative remarks can really eat away at you. Even just being on TV in general, when you want something so bad and then you lose it – it's really easy to feel hard on yourself."
Not one to leave the conversation down in the dumps, Farrah quickly bounced back into fierce-mode and, with a flip of her long, blonde hair du jour, left us with a message of positivity for all our readers.
"I think that it's very important for anyone in any field to always look out for their mental health and the first step is recognizing it. You're never going to be able to change what people say about you but you can change the way that you are affected by it by practicing self love and self affirmations … Take the steps that it takes to heal yourself."
Victoria queens on the LGBTQ community and drag etiquette
On a more local level, the drag community on Vancouver Island has been growing larger and larger thanks to rising levels of acceptance within and outside of the queer community.
One of the performers at the event, Henrietta Dubét (offstage name Charlie Nash) talked to Victoria Buzz about drag as a part of the LGBTQ community in Victoria.
"I feel like drag queens are sort of unofficially known as the champions of the gay community sometimes," said 26-year-old Dubét. "I'd say that it's almost less welcoming towards drag kings; I think that cis[gender] men get a lot more time in the spotlight."
"Locally we have things like King Fling which is a big focus on female bodied people performing as drag kings … I think it is super important because it is shining a light on other members of the community who don't get given so many opportunities."
In speaking to fellow performer, 21-year-old local queen Shelita Cox (offstage name Aaron), we learned that the LGBTQ community in Victoria has been extremely welcoming to drag queens for the most part but, without pointing to any explicit examples, she stated that "in every community there are negative moments."
The city's thriving drag scene has been inspiring more and more new visitors to shows, which means further exposure for Victoria's talented artists. However, not every audience member is entirely familiar with drag etiquette and how to behave during a performance.
"I was doing a number where … I come out wearing a sheer bodysuit with a leather harness on, and a young woman came up and she started tipping me but then … she started grabbing onto the harness and was super physical," Dubét explained.
"A lot of the time, I'll have friends who are keeping an eye on things and most clubs will have a security person right next to the stage who knows. 98% of the time, people are respectful and don't touch you."
One of these friends she refers to is fellow performer Shelita Cox, who described some of the situations in which she has had to step in to stop an audience member from getting in the way of the performer.
"It's one thing to hand out a $5 bill, but then you have some people who [think], 'oh I'm going to put this in my mouth and I'm not going to let you accept it unless you take it from your mouth', or 'I want to tuck this $20 [bill] into you'. No, this isn't a strip club, it's a drag show," said Cox.
"We're quite frank with audience members who get too hands-on but unfortunately you can't monitor every show [and] there's not always enough people to be able to jump up on stage and help someone."
Both Dubét and Cox expressed the need for audience members to be respectful of drag performers, and to be aware that the venue is meant to be a safe space for everyone in attendance.
"Look around you, don't be the standout person doing something that no one else is doing," added Cox, when asked about how newcomers should behave at their first drag show. "Don't blend in but come with your common sense. Don't be rude."
Advice for up and coming Victoria drag queens and kings
Consistent practice is key for performers looking to unleash their inner queens, especially when it comes to staying on top of your makeup game, says Henrietta Dubét.
To help baby drag artists hone their performance, Shelita Cox invites one and all to attend her 11:30 p.m. Drag Sundays show at Paparazzi Nightclub every Sunday night.
"It's your first chance in a very welcoming crowd, because on Sunday nights at 11:30 p.m. you only have people there who are really wanting to be there for the content," she said.
Cox also added that there are a number of different groups on Facebook geared towards helping kings and queens in Victoria build themselves up and practice their art before performing in front of an audience. One such group is linked here.
When it comes to perfecting performances, none says it better than Farrah Moan, who dropped this bit of sage wisdom before taking the stage herself:
"At the end of the day, there's no diploma that says 'you are a good drag queen'; there's always room to improve. I'm always trying to improve and I think that that is what anyone in this industry needs to do because there's always going to be someone younger and prettier that's going to come up behind you!"

How to fix several compatibility issues with new MySQL versions
Let's see how to solve some problems after updating MySQL server. All ones fixes in one place by one method, so I show detailed only first solve and next will be more short.
... which is not functionally dependent on columns in GROUP BY clause;
this is incompatible with sql_mode=only_full_group_by
Find path of mysqld program:
which mysqld
Find file which you can use for change mysqld options. Change mysqld path in command if you need.
sudo /usr/sbin/mysqld --verbose --help | grep -A 1 "Default options"
Remember printed filenames. Actually remember anyone filename e. g. "/etc/mysql/my.cnf".
Next you need to know active sql modes:
sudo mysql -u root -p -e "select @@sql_mode"
Copy printed constants to somewhere. Drop "ONLY_FULL_GROUP_BY" constant from list. Next go to open filename of mysqld options file:
sudo mcedit /etc/mysql/my.cnf
And after "!includedir" put "[mysqld]" section (if it missing) and write into [mysqld] section:
sql_mode = "YOUR_NEW_CONSTANTS_LIST"
Save file and restart mysql server:
sudo service mysql restart
Incorrect integer value
Open options file like above and from constants list drop "STRICT_TRANS_TABLES" constant. Save file and restart mysql server.
Incorrect datetime value: '0000-00-00 00:00:00'
Again, open options file and now drop constant "NO_ZERO_DATE" from list. Save file and restart mysql server.

The Womb Cave is a location in Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water. It is located under the Shrine of Dolls, sealed with a locked lattice.
Description[edit | edit source]
The Womb Cave is described as a lava cave, filled and flowing with water from the mountain. Its systems are complex and winding, and is mostly flooded, needing special equipment to explore fully.
According to the in-game material, the Womb Cave was considered a very sacred place, with access restricted to all but a select few, other entrances sealed off with sacred rope. This is due to the rituals practiced at the Shrine of Dolls, which involved human sacrifice. The Womb Cave was where the remains of these rituals were interred (likely for the Pillars). Given that reliquaries used to hold pillars of the mountain are there in great number, it is plain to see just how long and prevalent the practice was.
When Mt. Hikami was being renovated into a tourist destination, a tunnel was being built under the mountain. Named the Hikami Tunnel, this was supposed to be a route through the mountain- however, the workers hit a large body of water in the Womb Cave, which prompted a massive flood that killed all the workers on the job.

RealEstateBuySellExchange.com brings you the history of timeshare / vacation ownership as it is known to some of you.
Timeshare / vacation ownership, which ever you want to call it, was not invented recently. This process of splitting ownership / usage of a home started 100+ years ago.
To discuss the history of Vacation Ownership / Timeshare it might be helpful to most people if we give a condensed background on this industry. Like all industries you can fill volumes of books about the history of how a business has evolved, it is our purpose here to give our readers a synopsis of the industry from a third person observation.
First, it is important to understand the terminology . . . technically speaking Vacation Ownership and Timeshare Ownership is the same thing. It depends on what part of the world you come from they call it two different names but they both mean the ability to buy and become a real estate owner of a one week use of a resort/hotel forever.
Some people like to own a second home, some people like the freedom of buying a Vacation Ownership and once a year they can spend their vacation in a resort without the headaches or worries of ownership the other 51 weeks of the year.
Vacation Ownership / Timeshare was born nearly a hundred years ago when the royal owners of castles in Europe could not pay the extremely expensive overheads to maintain large homes so they got the idea to allow people to stay for a one or two week visits for a fee. As the years went by, this concept took shape and people wanted to become real owners, not just visitors so in the 1960's the first real Vacation Ownership / Timeshare products evolved.

God speaks to each of us as he makes us, then walks with us silently out of the night. These are the words we dimly hear: You, sent out beyond your recall, go to the limits of your longing. Embody me. Flare up like a flame and make big shadows I can move in. Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror. Just keep going. No feeling is final. Don't let yourself lose me. Nearby is the country they call life. You will know it by its seriousness. Give me your hand #rainermariarilke
Recovery wishes and prayers have come for the actor from fans around the world as well as some of the leading Bollywood names.
In the meantime, the crime film that was announced by Vishal Bhardwaj starring Irrfan Khan and Deepika Padukone has been postponed till after Irrfan returns from London after his treatment.

Here are some important things to keep in mind when looking for a diagnostic centre.
- Credibility: Credibility holds the top priority when it comes to anything related to health. Look for an established name and most importantly look for the accreditation.

text: World military spending is going up, according to data released this week by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), the most authoritative and comprehensive international source on military expenditure.1 According to SIPRI, the world total increased by 2.6% in real, inflation-adjusted terms, reaching an estimated $1,822 billion. The figure is almost certainly an underestimate, given that some countries are completely excluded due to a lack of data (notably Qatar, Syria, and North Korea). A number of other countries, typically those with large natural resource revenues such as the Gulf states, often exclude spending on arms imports from the limited information they publish, funding such purchases directly from oil revenues without including them in the official budget.Continue reading "Arms race redux – SIPRI's latest military expenditure data"

Local School Children Get Involved with Govanhill Housing Project
Glasgow firm Morris & Spottiswood has engaged local school children in a novel construction site safety project as part of a contract involving Govanhill Housing Association.
The £100-million turnover fit-out, M&E and maintenance specialist is currently delivering a large programme of refurbishment work to tenement housing in Annette Street, Govanhill, for the housing provider.
In a bid to raise interest with local youngsters the company has formed a partnership with neighbouring Annette Street Primary School, run by Glasgow City Council.
Morris & Spottiswood HSQE Business Partner Kirsty Spence, leading the outreach work, said team members had recently visited the school to deliver special presentations raising greater awareness of construction site safety.
The firm has further held a health & safety poster competition with the winning design set to be professionally printed and displayed on large billboards around the site.
"Morris & Spottiswood has developed a strong relationship with Govanhill Housing Association over a number of years, delivering a wide range of repair and planned maintenance projects," said Kirsty. "This includes mechanical and electrical work, as well as structural repairs, flooring, roofing and fit-out support. We have helped deliver new kitchens, bathrooms, windows and central heating systems to boost energy efficiency standards and address fuel poverty. Construction site health and safety is always a key element of these projects.
"With this latest social housing project, we wanted to involve the local community to a greater extent. The local primary school felt like an excellent place to start, with more than 220 pupils. It's proved a terrific corporate social responsibility project with students, teachers and staff all benefiting from the initiative. A key part of our presentation focussed on our involvement with the Considerate Constructors Scheme, which features the Ivor Goodsite mascot, designed to engage children, promote safety and all that is positive about UK construction.
"We are thrilled with the success of the partnership work which has been a real team effort demonstrating how the private sector can successfully collaborate with local councils and educational bodies."
Govanhill Housing Association is a community-controlled social landlord operating in the Govanhill and Merrylee neighbourhoods. It owns and manages more than 2,600 homes for social rent. The association has completed more than 270 new build houses since the early 1980s helping increase diversity in house types and sizes. It has further invested £39 million in tenants' homes since 1999 with repair and planned maintenance projects.
Annie MacFarlane, Chair of Govanhill Housing Association and local resident said: "As a community controlled social housing provider, it is important to us that contractors who complete projects on our behalf work to this ethos. I am very pleased that Morris & Spottiswood have managed to engage with local children in a way that is both creative and educational. It is great to see the children of Annette Street Primary School show so much enthusiasm for learning about health and safety, as demonstrated by their excellent drawings."
Annette Street Primary School Depute Headteacher, Wendy English said: "We are very happy to be linking with Morris & Spottiswood and furthering our links with GHA through being involved in the poster competition. The four winners were delighted with their prizes and we are looking forward to seeing their posters enlarged and on display in the community. It was also great having Kirsty lead an assembly about site safety and highlighting the dangers around the building work being done outside our school."
