Do you think that this is genuine or a brush off?
I was meant to meet a friend today, but it didn't really work out. I travelled quite a bit to meet them. They arrived quite upset and just wanted to leave. We walked to the underground station together (it took about 5 minutes).
She got back to me a few hours later saying 'Sorry about today - will rearrange for some time soon'.
I am tearing myself apart in tears thinking that it was my fault, and she must have not really wanted to see me in the first place. I am so self-critical and just think that it was my fault and that she (and everyone else) hates me. I had really been looking forward to this too.
She did say that she had her close friend staying with her this weekend, as this was the only weekend she could come and visit her before Christmas. She was also going to come today, but instead, my friend arrived alone. She told me about her close friend coming on Tuesday - I had arranged this date for a good few weeks.
I really, really want to see my friend again. I was so looking forward to this and catching up, but part of me just can't take going through the hurt of what I have gone through today again.
Do you think that this is genuine and that she really wants to arrange something with me again, or do you think that she never really wanted to see me in the first place and she is just saying this to try and feel better (I travelled about 70 miles today to meet). I could really do with some advice in guiding me as to whether to try and arrange something again.

It sounds like she has some serious emotional issues to deal with so give her space and kind of leave the door open for her to meet you again (maybe half way between where you live) if she feels like she wants to. In the meantime just get on with your life and put it down to people being able to have a bad day.

I don't know if she is genuine or not--but I do know she was incredibly rude today. she let you travel an hr. to basically tell you she wasn't in the mood? that seems very selfish and self centered to me. If she does want to rearrange something I would say make her travel to you.

I felt grief when Dad died. When "mother" passes…well, let's just say I have a bottle of fine Hungarian wine I've been saving for years, waiting to be opened in relief that the violent, hateful old hag can no longer hurt anyone.
I knew the second that I heard his voice, that what I was about to hear wasn't going to be good news. In fact, the last time I heard from him was back in April 2014, but you can't mistake my little brother, he's the only one of us with an Aberdonian accent. We're not exactly a close family and the contact between us has been sporadic over the past 30 odd years. That didn't stop it hurting when I heard the words I knew were coming. "Mums dead".
It doesn't matter how much bad feeling, pain or even time has passed since you last saw them, the death of a parent hurts. It was just the same when my brother phoned me in 2012 to convey a similar message about my Father and our relationship, had been a thousand times worse, than the one I had with my Mother. For…

Villa draw 0-0 again, this time with Middlesbrough. Dave Woodhall ponders the situation.
One of the good things about relegation was supposed to be that the games come around so quickly you haven't got time to dwell on a bad performance. Deal with it and move on before you know it. That's the theory.
The practice has become all too obvious. Villa's bad performances are usually followed by another bad performance soon afterwards so there was some trepidation in the air as we welcomed title contenders Middlesbrough to Villa Park on a foul night when everyone with more sense was at home. There was also a feeling of anticipation – would Adama Traore be able to turn over the most pedestrian defence in the Championship, and if so would that be the turning point as far as Steve Bruce's relationship with the crowd was concerned?
Traore soon made sure that he wasn't going to kepe his part of the bargain with a fourth minute challenge on Conor Hourihane best described as 'reckless'. 86 further minutes to stretch, press and generally do all the things Villa never do, against ten men. And they weren't going to change the habit.
The rest of the first half was tediously pedestrian. Boro were happy with the point they started with, Villa seemed equally happy to let them have it. At least there was some improvement after the break. Scott Hogan's arrival let to a bit more bite up front and the team finally woke up to begin passing the ball around in the vague direction of the visitors' goal.
Then Henri Lansbury forgot one of the basic rules of referees, namely that if he gives a straight red against one team in the first half, there's every chance he'll even things up in the second. it wasn't the brightest of tackles, although my totally biased judgement says a red was undeserved.
Villa hit the post, Hogan managed to block a shot that was about the cross the line, Jonathan Kodjia made a welcome re-appearance, we missed a couple more good chances. It was that kind of night. On the balance of play, possession statistics and other meaningless figures, Villa deserved a win. But we didn't get one and the crowd edged closer towards that turning point.
Incidentally, and I'm making no judgement one way or the other, I wonder how many of the people who complained about the performance (which they had every right to do) would have said what an exciting game it had been had Villa scored three of those chances, let the same number in, and we'd finished with a scoreline similar to the one at Molineux at the same time?
But it didn't, we failed to score again and Villa are still eighteenth in the league. We're a third of the way through Springboard September (and I'm copyrighting that one) with just two points to show from two winnable games. The comparison with Roberto di Matteo grows ever-stronger.
On Saturday we're at Barnsley, in a game that's been moved for Sky TV coverage. Sky's solicitors are probably checking the contract for loopholes as I write.

Pat The Bunny; born Patrick Schneeweis in 1987, is a retired American musician. He has been the front man of notable folk punk and anarcho-punk groups Johnny Hobo and the Freight Trains, Wingnut Dishwashers Union, and Ramshackle Glory. Originally based out of Brattleboro, Vermont, he lived in Tucson, Arizona during the final part of his musical career
Ramshackle Glory were a punk band from Tucson, Arizona that were around from 2011 to 2016. The band was primarily a new project by folk-punk superstar Pat The Bunny. This band came after his mostly solo projects, such as Johnny Hobo & The Freight Trains and Wingnut Dishwashers Union. Even though there's a fuller sound backing him, Pat does what he does best here: personal reflections done in upbeat punk songs. Anarchy never sounded more fun. The band's debut, Live The Dream, is particularly fantastic. They also put out a split with Ghost Mice, who are another great band. As expected, Ramshackle Glory also called it quits too, but at least got a farewell show and a final album out there. Live The Dream (2011). 2. More About Alcoholism.

NOTE: The following is the homily delivered yesterday, the Second Sunday of Advent, by Fr. Harry Hagan, O.S.B., in the Archabbey Church here at Saint Meinrad. I thought it was worth sharing. He reflects here on two of the Mass readings for the day: Isaiah 40:1-5, 9-11 and Mark 1:1-8. -- Br. Francis
In the Gospel we hear the voice of John the Baptist, "proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins." Clothed like an animal, "in camel's hair, with a leather belt around his waist" and eating "locusts and wild honey," he is something of a wild man in our minds. His is the voice of confrontation, a shrill voice of the apocalypse confronting us with our broken reality, with our sin. Strangely the people of Jerusalem are attracted to this voice and come to see what it is all about, accepting his "baptism of repentance."
The first reading from Isaiah 40 begins with the famous words: "Comfort, give comfort to my people, says your God." This chapter opens a new section in the Book of Isaiah with a different historical context—somewhere around 550 B.C. Some 35 years earlier, the people of Judah had seen the destruction of the temple and the whole city of Jerusalem burned with fire. Then they had made the forced march into exile. We see something of their horrific experience in the Book of Lamentations, and Psalm 137 captures the enduring anger and hurt: "By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat and wept remembering Zion." You can read Psalm 137 as a defiant affirmation of loyalty to Jerusalem, but you can also read it as an attempt to hold off the allure of Babylon—to forget and become just another Babylonian. Surely, it would have been easy to have forgotten the Holy One of Jerusalem who had not protected them from this terrible exile in Babylon. The temptation to despair was real, and real was the temptation to apostasy—to the abandonment of the Lord of Hosts for Marduk, the seemingly magnificent god of Babylon.
These are the people to whom Second Isaiah, as we call him, must speak. These exiles in Babylon do not need a Jeremiah to bring a prophecy of judgment. They are beaten down and in need of hope. The temptation to despair is real. To this hurting people, Second Isaiah brings a message of comfort and hope, but it is not exactly as we would expect.
Unlike First Isaiah, who is clearly a player at the royal court (to say nothing of fiery Jeremiah or the weird Ezekiel) Second Isaiah is a voice bringing what God has said, or occasionally, what Judah cries out. There is no call narrative for the prophet as we typically find in other prophet books. The call to give comfort in the opening lines is not to the prophet—as the Hebrew makes clear. The verb is in the plural. If they had translated this in Kentucky, it would have read:
You all, comfort; give comfort, you all, to my people.
Who is this "you all"? Strangely, the subject and the object are the same people. Judah is being called to give comfort to Judah.
We see this clearly in the last part of the reading There the call is to "Zion, herald of glad tidings," to "Jerusalem, herald of good news!" At this point in reality, Jerusalem is a heap of ruins and Zion is the place of the destroyed temple. However, the call goes out to Zion, to Jerusalem:
Go up on to a high mountain,
Zion, herald of glad tidings;
cry out at the top of your voice,
Jerusalem, herald of good news!
Fear not to cry out
and say to the cities of Judah:
Zion, herald of glad tidings;
cry out at the top of your voice,
Jerusalem, herald of good news!
Fear not to cry out
and say to the cities of Judah:
(Note carefully what Zion and Jerusalem are to say):
Here is your God!
Here comes with power
the Lord GOD.
Here comes with power
the Lord GOD.
Second Isaiah creates a great affirmation and vision of the living God, the Holy One of Israel, the Creator of all things, the First and the Last. As we hear him say in the chapters that follow: "I am He", "I am He who comforts" (51:12) and "besides me there is no god." (Isaiah 43:11; 44:6, 8; 45:5).
The people in exile needed to hear this message. Without this affirmation of the living God, powerful to act, the proclamation of comfort and hope is just fantasy. And this is made explicit in the final lines of the reading where comes the Lord, "who rules by his strong arm" and then "like a shepherd … feeds his flock" and
"in his arms he gathers the lambs,
Carrying them in his bosom,
and leading the ewes with care."
Carrying them in his bosom,
and leading the ewes with care."
God comes with a strong arm that is also ready to embrace.
So in Isaiah 43, we hear the Lord announce:
See, I am doing something new!
Now it springs forth, do you not perceive it?
In the wilderness I make a way,
in the wasteland, rivers. (Isaiah 43:19)
Now it springs forth, do you not perceive it?
In the wilderness I make a way,
in the wasteland, rivers. (Isaiah 43:19)
Today's Gospel and first reading give us two voices. They are not contradictory, only different. Importantly, the Church gives us both voices to hear—John the Baptist's call to repentance, and the call by God in Second Isaiah for the people to announce to themselves God's power to save and comfort.
Though these two passages have their own historical contexts, they reach across centuries and continue to speak to the hearts in exile, hearts imprisoned by sin.
In preparing for this homily, I have looked at recent news to see who is in need of this message of God coming to act, the message of God's comfort and hope.
Issues of race have dominated the news since the summer and again recently. Clearly, many people of color in our country feel strongly that the institutions of justice are not fair and equal. One of the great contributions of Dr. Martin Luther King was his proclamation of a dream. A dream is not a reality, but without a dream we are in imprisoned by our present and our past, and Dr. King worked to make his dream a reality.
Sexual violence and allegations of sexual violence have claimed a place in the news. This sad reality is more pervasive than our world is willing to admit. The sin must be confronted, yet there must also be hope for new life lest the past become a land of exile.
Immigration is much talked about: undocumented aliens and exiles in this country. There are many complications and reasons on various sides. Still, what do the words of the Lord mean here: "Comfort, give comfort to my people"?
There are places of violence around the world—familiar places like Afghanistan, Iraq, and Gaza. But there are many other smaller places, places that we have never heard of, raked by violence. Others are beset by Ebola —a disease which can penalize Christian charity. All these, and more, need messengers of God's coming power, of his comfort and gathering.
I read recently about a bishop in the Amazon jungle with 800 Catholic communities and 27 priests. Surely, that is just one statistic of a people weighed down.
Compared with those things, we may count ourselves blessed, but I have talked to enough people for long enough to know that the voices of today's readings speak personally and precisely to many of us, if not to all. We need to confront our sin and sins. We are all in need of God to act, and we are need of each other to comfort and to call us all to comfort each other.
This is the work of real hope—not just wishing it was different. No, the work of hope is taking up the voice of both John the Baptist and the voice of comfort, and then ourselves becoming those voices in our own world. Our world may seem small and mundane, but nonetheless, it is our own real world. We are called to be the voice of John the Baptist and the voice of God's hope to each other, so that something new may appear.
-- Fr. Harry Hagan, O.S.B.

Difference Between Indian RAW vs Pakistan ISI
Government Intelligence is a cerebral approach to warfare and Military Tactics. This is an agency specially designed to gather information discreetly on enemy factions or countries and has since inspired movies on espionage like James Bond. Information gathered may then enable the concerned government or political group to gain an upper hand in a certain issue or affair. All countries and factions have Intel, some may be more technologically advanced than others, but their purpose is the same: gather pertinent data and relay that data to the proper authorities.
India, like any other nation, sports an Intelligence agency of its own. The country, after being under British reign for several years, was left with plenty of British developments and legacies and one of the legacies left behind was the IB, an Intelligence agency. However, after two wars and the obvious lack of proper intelligence in the IB, India engineered a separate external intelligence agency which they have then named Research and Analysis Wing or RAW at the directive of then Prime Minister, Mrs. Indira Gandhi. This step was taken in hope of avoiding further lapses in the collection of political and military data on neighbouring countries and other major international players. RAW entails sending out their agents to foreign countries thru covert diplomatic missions. RAW also involves recruiting those who are already residing in nations of interest.
Pakistan, too, also boasts of an Intel. However, instead of being an independent body, Pakistan's Intelligence agency is part of its government, meaning, it is under the Pakistani administration. Pakistan's intelligence agency is known as Inter Services Intelligence or ISI which consists of capable officers from the Navy, Army, and Air Force. ISI currently has 3 important divisions: Internal Political Issues, External Intelligence, and Counter Intelligence, all of which were improved after the 1980 Soviet- Afghanistan War. Also, since ISI is under Pakistan government, its director general should also be a serving Lieutenant General of the army.
The main differences in the aforementioned Intelligence agencies are as follows:
- RAW's country of Origin is India, whereas ISI belongs to that of Pakistan
- RAW headquarters is found in New Delhi; ISI on the other hand, is in Islamabad.
- RAW is independent of the Indian Army; ISI is part and parcel of the Pakistan Army.

This article analyses the relationship between a Scottish manufacturing company and the accountancy firm which provided it with professional services across its existence (1894–1967). It examines the professional roles fulfilled by the accountants, the work done and the fee income derived from it, in the context of the company's history. It emphasises the importance of the services provided by accountancy firms for unlisted companies in understanding the development of professional accountancy in the United Kingdom. The material presented is used to test three different explanations of the UK accountancy profession's rise which relate to the auditing function and has implications for historical methodology and epistemologies. The explanations explored may be categorised as economic rationalist, Foucauldian and jurisdictional points of view.
Scottish heavy industry declined in c.1950-1970, suffering inter alia from severe shortages of fuel, raw materials and skilled labour. Among a great number of heavy engineering firms closed in the 1980s was 114-year old A. F. Craig & Co. Ltd. of Paisley, a manufacturer of textile machinery, oil refinery equipment and sugar machinery. The firm survived economic recessions and two World Wars but not the period c.1950-1970. To understand how A. F. Craig reacted to its difficulties strategically, we explored its last years to investigate whether new strategies emerged in the firm and, if they did, their influence on the firm. Investigating archival data for the firm, we found that it adopted exploitative strategies without including explorative strategies in technological search and international diversification. The impact of these strategies was not effective enough to lead the firm out of its increasing difficulties.
Purpose - The paper aims to explore determinants for the adoption of mobile payment in the Chinese market. It proposes a model that integrates the technology acceptance model and the innovation diffusion model, as well as risks, social influence, and internet experience.
Design/methodology/approach - We conducted a survey in Guangdong, China during December 2012 and January 2013. A sample of 922 usable responses (response rate 64.1%) was collected from 25 randomly selected branches of China Unicom in the region. Having over 500 branches in Guangdong, China Unicom is one of the largest telecommunication companies in China. Prior to the main survey we conducted two pilot surveys to test and improve the questionnaire.
Findings - Five factors determined users' intentions to use mobile payments in the Chinese market. The factors were compatibility, perceived usefulness, Internet experience, perceived risks, and subjective norms. Users' Internet experience had the strongest influence on those intentions to adopt mobile payment among the five factors. Subjective norms had the second strongest influence on users' intentions to make payments with their smartphones.
Originality/value - We integrated the technology, social, and psychological factors in the models of technology adoption and customer behaviours to explore factors that motivated the adoption of mobile payment. Our study contributed to the literature where existing studies on mobile payments rarely took into consideration customer psychological and market environmental factors. Our focus on the Chinese market provided unique settings for the study.
This paper demonstrates how meta‐analysis can be combined with structural equation modeling (MASEM) to address new questions in strategic management research. We review this integration, describe its implementation, and compare findings from bivariate meta‐analyses, a direct‐effect structural equations model, and two mediating frameworks using data on the strategic leadership and performance relationship. Results drawn from 208 articles that collectively included data on 495,638 observations demonstrate the new insights available from MASEM while also suggesting a revision to conventional thinking on strategic leadership. Whereas some theories posit that boards of directors influence firm performance through monitoring and disciplining the top management team, MASEM provides more support for the view that boards mediate the top management teams' decisions. Implications for applying MASEM in strategic management are offered.
We explore the interaction of open innovation and intellectual property (IP) in two Chinese latecomer pharmaceutical firms in their catch-up process. Studying archival data, documentation, and interviews, we found that the two firms exhibited five periods that were characterised by different open innovation activities and R&D capabilities. In their early stages, the two firms lacked R&D functions; thus, they imported technologies and pursued production-oriented strategies. As they gradually entered into collaborations and established their R&D departments, open innovation and IP protection played important and dynamic roles in this process. Thus, a catch-up process involves not only acquiring technological capabilities and innovative competencies but also transforming a firm's capacity to strategies.
This thesis addressed three questions regarding learning from failure: 1) How does firms' failure experience influence their search activities? 2) How does firms' failure experience affect their performance? and 3) How does firms' exploration and exploitation influence the impact of failure on performance? Based on the theoretical lens of learning from failure, absorptive capacity, and exploration and exploitation, the series of longitudinal quantitative studies in this thesis revealed that firms' failure experience negatively affects exploratory search, positively influences R&D performance, and exhibits a mixed blessing on firms' financial performance. Boundary conditions of the relationships were discussed.

An abdominoplasty, better recognized for its colloquial name, "tummy tuck," is a surgery that removes excess skin and fatty tissue from the abdomen. The procedure itself is rather simple, however, it is important for each candidate to feel prepared and confident. Ensure you get the best Manhattan abdominoplasty by following these tips to success.
Begin your journey to a flatter stomach by finding a trusted Manhattan abdominoplasty surgeon, such as Dr. Daniel Kaufman at Discreet Plastic Surgery. After scheduling your consultation for a Manhattan tummy tuck, be sure to do some research of your own. What type of tummy tuck are you seeking? What is your desired outcome and major concerns? What is the desired recovery time for you? After researching, you can talk to your surgeon, who will happily address questions, comments, and concerns. The more knowledge regarding the surgery you have prior to your consultation, the more fit you will be to have a successful consultation appointment.
When meeting with your surgeon, address any and all questions and make sure you are comfortable with them, the procedure, and the medical office space where the abdominoplasty will occur. Your surgeon will discuss with you whether or not you are a fit candidate for the procedure, and can help you take the subsequent steps if it is mutually decided it is safe for you to have the abdominoplasty. Take advantage of the time you are given during consultation to ensure you are comfortable with the procedure and the steps it entails.
Financial planning is another step for your abdominoplasty in Manhattan, or anywhere else, that will set you up for a successful treatment start to finish. During your consultation, be sure to discuss the full price of the surgery, including any down payments, and decide if the cost works for you. Your surgeon should inform you if any payment plans will be allowed, what may be covered by insurance, and if there is any way to get financial assistance. Just like the procedure itself, it is important to be well versed in the cost and due dates of payments before undergoing a tummy tuck.
Once you've decided to have a tummy tuck, be sure you understand the recovery time, as well as any medications you will need. There will likely be limitations on your activity for the first few weeks post-surgery, so you will need to take time off of work or home duties as you recuperate. Your doctor will also give you details on any important steps to take prior to the surgery, such as securing a ride to and from the appointment, filling your pain prescriptions in advance, and making sure you have over the counter medications that might be needed.
Completing these simple and important steps will guide you to a successful abdominoplasty and the sleek, flat stomach you desire. The client's comfort and needs come first for those receiving a Manhattan abdominoplasty at Discreet Plastic Surgery. Contact Dr. Kaufman today by calling (212) 444-9095, or visiting the Discreet Plastic Surgery website.

'This is all for them' - How a theatre is helping people with dementia to speak
PUBLISHED: 11:06 23 October 2019 | UPDATED: 15:18 23 October 2019
'We can have people who don't speak at all and suddenly they're singing. It's very special.'
A community theatre in Lowestoft is transforming the lives of those with dementia across Norfolk and Suffolk, as well as supporting their carers.
According to managing director Karen Read, 46, the Seagull Theatre on Morton Road is more than a fantastic venue for performing arts.
It is a place for improving the community through the power of the arts.
"We have become this hub for the community. What that means is we support people who need it," Mrs Read said.
As well as hosting a round annual programme, the venue has begun hosting regular workshops and activities which benefit vulnerable people, including adults with learning disabilities, those with dementia, and children facing a lack of opportunities.
In the last three years the Seagull has gone from strength to strength, refurbishing its building and winning a number of funding bids from national and local organisations to extend its community work.
In 2016 the Theatre collaborated with internationally reknown Vamos Theatre to perform a play about the impact of Dementia.
Mrs Read said: "It was a special performance. We had it here at the Seagull and at care homes too. It was my springboard for making me think we can do some community things.
"I spent the next year getting more information and going to care homes seeing what was needed and getting directors on board."
Working closely with one of her directors over the last year, the theatre won funding bids which enable its efforts to support the community.
Mrs Read said: "We got one set of funding from the Waveney Enabling Fund, £2,500 just to start the projects."
The theatre has since been able to expand that work with grants from the North Suffolk Clinical Commissioning group and the Suffolk Foundation, and now offers a full programme of workshops and support.
She added: "It's gone beyond Lowestoft. We have gone out to Southwold, Beccles, and Great Yarmouth."
The theatre now offers five supportive activities specifically designed for people living with dementia and their carers.
Its most popular activity, a monthly 'dementia friendly film screening' offers an accessible way for those with dementia to enjoy movies and spur old memories.
"We show classics, generally musicals. We are always picking things with songs because studies show the reminiscence of hearing old songs stirs something in people.
"We had someone bring his mother who started singing at the sing along, and he had to take a video because his family wouldn't believe it. It's amazing."
Showing classics like Grease and Bugsy Malone, the theatre has performers dressed as characters who encourage singing and introduce the movies - adding interesting facts about the year each film was released.
In each screening lights stay on, attendees can come and go as they please, and make as much noise as they like.
Also on offer is a fortnightly 'memories cafe' and a weekly music appreciation group which encourages singing and playing instruments.
Mrs Read said: "We don't just care for people with dementia. We have also started events specifically for carers."
The theatre is not resting on its laurels but seeking to expand.
Last month they launched their newest fund raising bid to build a new workshop on the rear of the building and improve their accessibility for disabled local residents.
"We are proud of what we already do, but there is a lot of need in our community and we could do much more," Mrs Read said.
You may also want to watch:
"With this new workshop we could expand the opportunities we offer for local residents with mental health difficulties to get involved with practical work.
"We could also support more adults looking to gain skills to return to the world of work and our building would be finally fully accessible to those with mobility issues."

It's January and I'm keeping the spirit of Christmas alive. You see, each day I re-read a Christmas card and say a special prayer for the sender. I've been blessed over and over as I continue this practice year after year. When our girls were home, we would put the cards in a basket. Each evening at the supper table, one girl selected a card which we then read together and prayed a special prayer for the sender. Maybe this is a tradition you would like to start. It sure is special. Have a wonderful week.

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday praised the Chandrayaan-2 Team for their efforts in the moon landing mission and said India's space program will bounce back strong from the apparent failure of Friday's lunar landing attempt.
The Chandrayaan-2 moon orbiter dropped a lander called Vikram toward the lunar surface Friday afternoon.
Everything went well for a while, but mission controllers lost contact with Vikram when the craft was just 1.3 miles (2.1 kilometers) above the gray dirt, Space.com says in a report.
As of this writing, the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) had still not officially declared Vikram lost; the latest ISRO update stated that descent data are still being analyzed.
But Modi's comments strongly suggest that Vikram and Pragyan, the rover that was supposed to deploy from the lander, are dead, the report says.
"We came very close, but we will need to cover more ground in the times to come," Mr. Modi said during an address to the nation that was webcast live Friday night. "As important as the final result is the journey and the effort. I can proudly say that the effort was worth it, and so was the journey."
He also heaped praise on the Chandrayaan-2 team, emphasizing that the scientists and engineers were going after ambitious firsts — India's first moon landing, and the first touchdown attempt so close to the lunar south pole.
"To our scientists, I want to say, India is with you. You are exceptional professionals who have made an incredible contribution to national progress," Mr. Modi said as quoted by Space.com. "True to your nature, you ventured into a place where no one had ever been before."
To date, just three nations have soft-landed a spacecraft on the moon — the Soviet Union/Russia, the United States and China, according to Space.com.

After finishing top of their Europa League group, Chelsea have been rewarded with a tie against Swedish side Malmö in the Last 32, but who are the Blues' opponents and what should fans expect from them?
Formed in 1910, Malmö are the most successful Swedish club in history. They have won the domestic league title 20 times and the Swedish Cup 14 times, both of which are records. Their last league title came in 2017, finishing seven points clear of AIK. Since then, Malmö finished a disappointing 3rd in the 2018 campaign which concluded in November.
Malmö have something in common with Chelsea. The club is nicknamed 'Di Blåe', meaning 'The Blues' in Scanian, a South Swedish dialect spoken in the province of Scania.
Malmö finished 2nd in Group I below Genk while only netting seven times in six matches. Although goals were hard to come by, Malmö's defence was solid, conceding just six goals; the fewest in the group. Chelsea have struggled to find the back of the net in recent games so the Swedish side could prove to be a tough test in which the forwards will have to remain patient.
The Swedish giants usually play with a three-man defence, a system most of the Chelsea players are accustomed to after using it under former manager Antonio Conte so they should cope well with the unique formation. Their dangerman is Marcus Antonsson. The 27-year-old played in England between 2016 and 2018 before signing for Malmö midway through their season. He went on to net eight times in 15 league games, a very respectable ratio, and averages a goal every 97 minutes in this season's Europa League.
Markus Rosenberg, a 36-year-old striker currently in his second spell at the club, could line up next to Antonsson. Despite his age, Rosenberg is a clinical player and scored 18 goals last season in all competitions, finishing as the club's top scorer.
Malmö's most notable former player is a certain Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Now at L.A. Galaxy, 'Zlatan' made 40 league appearances for Malmö as a teenager, scoring 18 times. It was inevitable the big Swede would leave for greener pastures but has since admitted he 'won't close the door' on a potential return to his boyhood club.
English readers may be aware of Malmö's manager, Uwe Rösler. In his playing days he featured heavily for Manchester City in the 90s and went on to play for Southampton and, briefly, West Brom in the turn of the millennium. Rösler had a lengthy managerial spell in England too, starting at one of Chelsea's local rivals Brentford in 2011. Spells at Wigan Athletic and Leeds United were followed by a successful reign of Fleetwood Town until 2018 when the German jetted off to Sweden.
Rösler is renowned for his teams playing a high-pressing style of football and frequently rotates his players. His favoured formations are 4-3-3 and 3-5-2, with the latter the most likely to be used on Thursday night against Chelsea. Rösler has compared his brand of football to that of German compatriot Jürgen Klopp, describing it as 'heavy metal' attacking football with rapid transitions from defence to attack.
A factor that could play into Chelsea's hands is Malmö's lack of game time. The Swedish domestic season starts and finishes at a different time to England. As previously mentioned, the 2018 campaign concluded in November, meaning Malmö are still in their pre-season and have not kicked a ball since their last Europa League match against Besiktas two months ago.
Thursday night's fixture will take place at the Stadion, the home of Di Blåe. It has a four-star rating from UEFA and a capacity of 22,500. The stadium was opened in 2009 and hosted the final of the European Under-21 Championship two months later, a game in which a 20-year-old Mesut Özil scored the second goal in a 4-0 win for Germany against England.
So, now you know a little more about Chelsea's opponents on Thursday night. The Blues are used to playing the crème de la crème of Europe but will have to settle for Malmö in the Europa League. However, it will not be as comfortable as many predict and the Swedish side will certainly be up for the fight.

Having made momentous musical waves with show-stopping premiere performances at The 2019 NAMM Show in Southern California, January 24-27, trailblazing pro audio manufacturer Antelope Audio is proud to speedily follow up on last month's Orion 32+ | Gen 3 availability announcement by shipping its Orion 32HD | Gen 3 showpiece sibling. Since it is compatible with any DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) via HDX or USB 3.0, this new Pro Tools HD- and Native-ready audio interface really represents everything Antelope Audio stands for — from industry-finest AD/DA conversion, comprehensive connectivity, zero-latency monitoring, and 64-channel 24-bit/192 kHz audio streaming through to flawless clocking and beyond.
This third-generation, improved interface sets new standards in the pro audio industry by virtue of Antelope Audio's acclaimed AD/DA being boosted to reach an astonishing 136dB of dynamic range! Like its innovative predecessors, Orion 32HD | Gen 3 is also an amazingly versatile audio interface. It works like a charm with any DAW on the market. Comprehensive connectivity makes streaming hi-res audio a digital delight, thanks to its back panel-positioned USB 3.0 Type B connector (offering 64 channels of I/O at up to 192 kHz) and also two mini HDX connectors for direct Pro Tools connection (each offering 32 channels of I/O, totalling 64 channels). Further flexibility abounds as digital I/O is also available over fiber optic MADI (IN and OUT — up to 64 channels each), two ADAT (IN 1 and IN 2, and OUT 1 and OUT 2 — both with up to 64 channels), and S/PDIF (IN and OUT) connections. Obligingly, Orion 32HD | Gen 3 not only enables users to stream an astounding 64 channels of audio when tracking, but also allows for multiple monitor mixes. Moreover, the sound is detailed, natural, pleasing, and transparent when monitoring.
Meanwhile, stepping out into the wonderful world of analog audio, Orion 32HD | Gen 3 is equally well connected, courtesy of four D-SUB 25 connectors catering to 32 channels of ANALOG IN and four D-SUB 25 connectors catering to 32 channels of ANALOG OUT, plus two MONITOR outputs on 1/4-inch TRS jacks.
Jet-setting, top-tier audio professionals as well as those working closer to home — or even at home — will, no doubt, delight in the unbeatable clocking accuracy of Orion 32HD | Gen 3 provided by Antelope Audio's acclaimed 64-bit AFC (Acoustically Focused Clocking) jitter management technology. That should, however, hardly be surprising since Antelope Audio clocking has decades-long reputation for excellence in both stability and sonic improvement, insofar as transients will surely shine like never before and achieving a stereo image with incomparable depth and detail duly comes naturally. Needless to say, sonic perfection is clearly a given, with a crystal-clear high-end literally like no other!
Orion 32HD | Gen 3 comes complete with a comprehensive collection of circuit-level gear emulations, running in real-time on an integrated FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) platform. Plucked from Antelope Audio's fast-growing FPGA FX library, these go way beyond the essentials. Everything needed to accomplish high-quality recording, mixing, and mastering — with access to no fewer than 20 time-tested, classic equalizers; 13 vintage and modern compressors; and several useful utility effects, including the thick-sounding and versatile reverb that is AuraVerb — is here: https://en.antelopeaudio.com/products/orion-32hd-gen3-featured-fx/
Orion 32HD | Gen 3 offers extensive flexibility for excellent productivity, providing a color-coded software routing matrix with four separate mixers, effects chaining, and zero-latency monitoring. All are found within an intuitive desktop application for macOS and Windows. It is even possible to use that intuitive software control panel from multiple computers connected over the same network to amplify an already flexible workflow!
While the original Orion32HD set a new price/performance standard for HDX-compatible I/O, industry-leading conversion and exceptional connectivity for the price ensure expectations are redefined once again with theOrion32HD | Gen 3. It includes all the power of the original, now upgraded with Antelope Audio's flagship-level AD/DA conversion. Combining all that with a refreshed design and a wide range of real- time, FPGA-powered effects ensure that the Orion32HD | Gen 3 will make productions and live shows shine forth for all to truly hear!
Orion 32HD | Gen 3 is now available for purchase — priced at an RRP of $3,995.00 USD — through Antelope Audio's growing global network of authorised dealers (https://en.antelopeaudio.com/dealers/). Or order online directly from Antelope Audio via the dedicated Orion 32HD | Gen 3 webpage (https://en.antelopeaudio.com/products/orion-32hd-gen3/), which also includes more in-depth information.

Gustav Klutsis
Gustav Klutsis (1895 – 1938) was a pioneering Latvian photographer and major member of the Constructivist avant-garde in the early 20th century. He is known for the Soviet revolutionary and Stalinist propaganda he produced with his wife and collaborator Valentina Kulagina.
Klutsis worked in a variety of experimental media. He liked to use propaganda as a sign or revolutionary background image. His first project of note, in 1922, was a series of semi-portable multimedia agitprop kiosks to be installed on the streets of Moscow, integrating "radio-orators", film screens, and newsprint displays, all to celebrate the fifth anniversary of the Revolution. Like other Constructivists he worked in sculpture, produced exhibition installations, illustrations and ephemera.

Where possible we will keep the group together and try to accommodate couples; however twin rooms cannot be guaranteed and any additional upgrade costs for a private room will need to be covered by the passenger(s) en route.
Head out of The City of Angels to Joshua Tree, a desert oasis where cacti and boulders will form the backdrop to your prickly selfies! Even the drive there encapsulates the very essence of an all-American road trip out west. This afternoon, you'll have the opportunity to weave between clumped rock formations and marvel at ancient Indian petroglyphs on a hike to Barker Dam, or scramble through the Hidden Valley before the show stopping sights at Keys View. From here you can admire sweeping views of the Coachella Valley (yep, the home of the world's most epic festival!), dazzling mesas and dusty desert mountains. Cross into Arizona where tonight you'll stay in Laughlin by the Colorado River.
Get your hands on some pure Americana in Seligman, a roadside town on the famous Route 66. Feeling thirsty? Head to the Snow Cap Diner for a shake before heading in search of one of the 'Seven Natural Wonders of the World', the Grand Canyon. You won't be able to miss it. As soon as you lay your eyes upon the vast canyon, you'll be speechless. From sunset to sunrise this place will leave you inspired and wanting to see more of this desert wonderland. Take to the sky and witness the Grand Canyon's monumental red-and-gold formations from up high on an optional helicopter flight. Hike deep into the canyon on the Bright Angel Trail or check out the aptly named 'Ooh Aah Point' on the South Kaibab Trail.
Optional Activities
After a well-spent morning at the Grand Canyon you head to the neon city of Las Vegas! Time to put those lucky numbers to the test - not to mention your energy levels, in this 24/7 party town. A-list stars swarm here, although breaking the bank may be easier than blagging your way into their swanky celebrity hangouts. If that fails, you can still cruise The Strip in an included party bus tour or ease the pain with one of the famous all-you-can-eat buffets. Hit the roller coasters, check out a show or take an evening flight down The Strip. You could even get yourself hitched by Elvis Presley (don't worry, it's not legally binding - unless you want it to be!).
Optional Activities
From the desert to the mighty Giant Sequoias, your next stop is the incredible Yosemite National Park. Soak in the Insta-worthy views, from huge granite cliffs to the chiselled landmarks of El Capitan and Half Dome, as well as the highest waterfalls in North America. Let's not forget Yosemite Valley is teeming with wildlife, including bears and coyotes. With some of the best hiking trails the country has to offer and a picture-perfect sunset, you'll soon see why this National Park is a favourite with tourists and locals alike.
Optional Activities
Welcome to San Fran! Take to the hilly streets on a city tour and walk across the famous Golden Gate Bridge to admire awesome views of Alcatraz and the city from afar. Make sure you visit the Haight-Ashbury neighbourhood which inspired some awesome music and make sure you embrace those hippy vibes. The waterfront is the place to be if you want to sample some delicious clam chowder and meet the resident sea lions at Pier 39. There is so much to see and do here it's always worth staying a few days after the tour finishes to make the most of the 'City by the Bay'.
