  • Laundry Tips

    1.Use the recommended amount of a premium detergent for delicate articles.

    2.Silk articles need to be washed separately because they have a lower colorfastness than other fabrics.

    3.Hand washing is recommended for delicate items such as lace, lingerie, wool, silk or very dark colors that may run. Using lukewarm or cold water under 30°C and squeeze gently. Turn inside out when hanging up and do not dry clothes in full sunlight.

    4.The clothes should be at least 3 quarters dry before ironing. Ironing temperature recommended from 100°C to 180°C depending on the fabric.

    5.The steam setting should be on high since ironing silk requires a lot of moisture. After the silk is lightly misted with water, it is placed face down on the ironing board and covered with a press cloth.

    6.Avoid washing or bleaching for leather articles. Dry Cleaning is recommended for them.

Swift Playgrounds: “The Absolute Best Way to Teach Everyone to Code”

On stage at this year’s WWDC conference, Apple’s CEO Tim Cook said what we’ve all been thinking. “We believe code should be a required language in all schools.”

Children of all ages should be taught the basics of programming, at the least. But not just children, everyone should be introduced to coding. Our society has become more reliant on computers and modern technology. It makes sense to understand the language on which all software applications are built.

Apple clearly agrees.

Big Plans for Swift

When Apple introduced Swift in 2014, the goal was to offer a clean, and simpler alternative to Objective-C. More importantly, they wanted Swift and iOS development to be accessible for everyone.

“Swift is powerful but it’s also simple and approachable,” says Tim Cook.

Swift Playgrounds coding on an iPad

Accessible it certainly is. Developers have created Over 100,000 apps with Swift, including Twitter, Uber, and Lyft.

Apple and Swift have also seen a lot of support from schools and classrooms, where teachers are trying educate their kids on programming. Keeping Cook’s promise, Apple recently announced a platform that will continue that trend.

Swift Playgrounds is an app, for the iPhone and iPad, that will teach children – and adults – how to code.

Introducing Swift Playgrounds

Apple demoed the new platform on stage at WWDC, showing how lessons in Playgrounds work.

Swift Playgrounds lesson on iPad

One of the demo lessons had users learning how to manipulate weight, gravity, and size using code. This was done during an emoji-stacking game. As players made changes to the code, it would change how the game behaved and operated.

There are lots of little interactive lessons like this to teach folks how to code in a fun, intuitive way. The idea is to spice up the experience, by making it a bit more interesting than just reading a textbook.

Plus, the Playgrounds interface takes full advantage of the mobile device features. For example, on the iPad, you can use multi-touch to organize and shift components. It’s more than just shifting visual components too, you gain access to a true drag-and-drop coding interface.

“Just tap, drag, or type text and numbers and then interact with what you’ve created.”

Playgrounds includes a custom keyboard that adds hotkeys for commonly-used functions and symbols. The virtual keyboard for Apple devices simplifies the entire coding process.

Of course, Playground creations can be exported to Xcode, the standard dev environment for iOS.

“Because Swift is so easy to learn, it has the potential to bring more people into coding.”

The good news is that Swift Playgrounds is available already to developers in a preview build. It will be available to everyone else (a public Beta) in July. The final release is set for the iPhone and iPad to coincide with the iOS 10 update, coming in fall 2016.

Learn Swift Now!

Swift Playgrounds may be a fun way to learn to code but don’t forget that we have a full tutorial available too!

Head on over to our tutorials section to learn how to get started with Swift.

The 100 Greatest Alternative Singles of the '80s: Part 2: 80 - 61

Just imagine songs this extreme making the American Top 40, let alone the Top 10… unthinkable.

80. Bob Mould - "See a Little Light" (1989)

After the disintegration of Hüsker Dü, Bob Mould retreated to rural Minnesota to plot his first solo album. The highly polished, largely acoustic Workbook was a radical departure from the raw and edgy rock he'd been known for in his prior band. His songwriting talents were maturing and he delivered a strong collection of melodic, introspective acoustic rock. He drafted Pere Ubu rhythm section Anton Fier and Tony Maimone to play on the album. The first single was "See a Little Light", an upbeat charmer that finds Mould exploring a melodic side to his writing that he'd only hinted at in Hüsker Dü. Despite the song's sunny disposition, with a soaring chorus, jangly guitar and the great Jane Scarpantoni providing a beautiful undertow of cello, the song finds Mould at the moment of realization that a relationship is doomed and a lover is going to leave.

Workbook was only the beginning for Mould. Over the 26 years since college radio embraced "See a Little Light", Mould has released numerous solo albums, a pair of acclaimed power pop LPs in the '90s with Sugar, and is now one of rock's most respected elder statesmen. "See a Little Light" remains Mould's most widely recognized tune, and in 2013 he enshrined it as the title of his biography, See a Little Light: The Trail of Rage and Melody.

79. Pale Saints - "Sight of You" (1989)

The Leeds, England-based indie-pop trio Pale Saints are best known for their majestic and darkly obsessive "Sight of You", originally released in September 1989 on their EP Barging Into the Presence of God, and then re-recorded for their 1990 full-length debut The Comforts of Madness. Vocalist Ian Masters' reverb-laden performance of the syrupy-sweet melody soars over deeply churning guitars. Masters' dulcet voice is all the more chilling as he contemplates murdering a man who is evidently his former lover's new boyfriend: "I think of him / I think of him soaked all in red / I wish him dead".

The lyrics, almost nursery-rhyme in their simplicity, give a peek into the mind of someone detached from empathy -- throughout the song he's concerned only with his own thoughts and feelings. "Sight of You" builds to a menacing crescendo at the 5:00 mark, and then just kinda falls apart listlessly with a haphazard drum part dueling with an elastic bass as it fades to silence, unresolved. Pale Saints eventually split in 1996 after failing to break through commercially, but they left behind a treasure of music that seems barely to have been discovered. It's time for that to change.

78. Black Flag - "Rise Above" (1981)

California punk rockers Black Flag released their debut album Damaged in 1981 to little fanfare, but in the years since it's universally recognized as a landmark in American punk. Singer Henry Rollins had just joined the band, and he belted out the ragged tunes with raw and intense focus. "Rise Above", the album's opener and anarchist anthem, is blistering full-throttle hardcore. "We are tired of your abuse / try and stop us it's no use… / We're gonna rise above!!" is the shouted chorus, and when you hear it there's no doubt they believe it.

Like the rest of Damaged, "Rise Above" is non-stop -- it barely lets you breathe. The dual guitars of Greg Ginn and Dez Cadena clash violently behind Rollins' ranting, and Robo's drums are fierce and unhinged. At the 1:26 point there is a brief but piercing guitar solo that's like a drill to the ear. "Rise Above" packs a sonic punch despite its murky production and mix. This isn't music for audiophiles -- "Rise Above" is nihilistic mosh pit fodder, two-and-a-half minutes of the real thing.

77. INXS - "Don't Change" (1982)

Shabooh Shoobah is the album in which it all came together for INXS -- it set the Australian band on the path to international stardom. Its two major singles are particularly noteworthy: the new wave rocker "The One Thing", which became the band's first American hit, and the electrifying "Don't Change". After an opening swell of keyboards that sound like the sun rising, there's a few seconds of rattling guitar and then the full band erupts ferociously. Drummer Jon Farriss plays with wild abandon, and Michael Hutchence has by this time turned into a first-rate rock 'n' roll frontman.

Although "Don't Change" failed to follow "The One Thing" into the US Top 40, it's indisputably one of the band's most pivotal singles. It helped raise expectations for their next two albums, The Swing and Listen Like Thieves, both of which were substantial hits. "Don't Change" is a young, energetic, fresh-faced version of INXS which would become wiser and more jaded as the years went on. It's a glorious affirmation of self -- be proud of who you are, don't let things you can't control crush your spirit, and most definitely be loud.

76. The Sisters of Mercy - "This Corrosion" (1987)

Opening with eerie choral vocals, "This Corrosion" is a magnificent dark epic that melds industrial and goth into a massive wall-of-sound production that's aggressive and danceable. The full-length version, from the band's second album Floodland, is a punishing 11 minutes. "This Corrosion" is a tensely dramatic rocker with a hard-driving electronic beat, ornate vocal arrangements, and bursts of wailing guitar. The song only intensifies as it rips over your psyche like a tornado swirling slabs of crashing metal. Multi-instrumentalist Andrew Eldritch's vocals are reminiscent of Peter Murphy in all his glowering beauty.

It's easy to imagine a dark, dungeon-like club packed with a crowd all in black slamming into each other and spinning wildly to these heavy mechanized beats. When Eldritch growls lines like, "On days like this / in times like these / I feel an animal deep inside", one is strongly reminded of a particular Nine Inch Nails juggernaut from the '90s. "This Corrosion" hit #7 on the UK singles chart. Just imagine a song this extreme making the American Top 40, let alone the Top 10… unthinkable.

75. Love and Rockets - "So Alive" (1989)

Sometimes from out of nowhere a song will stun everyone, take off and jet up the charts, and that's what happened with Love and Rockets' "So Alive". It wasn't even the first single from the band's 1989 self-titled album (that honor went to the noise-rocker "Motorcycle") but it clicked with a massive audience and steamrolled all the way to #3 on the Hot 100. It's easy to understand why -- "So Alive" is indeed a great single. It's slick and sexy, with a sensually swaying groove and a wonderfully salacious vocal by Daniel Ash. When Ash seductively coos lines like, "Don't know what colour your eyes are, baby, but your hair is long and brown / your legs are strong, and you're so so long, and you don't come from this town", it's about as far away from his old band Bauhaus as you can imagine. And that's not a bad thing.

There's room for powerfully dramatic rock, and sweltering, sexy pop -- Love and Rockets are capable of producing both. Alas, "So Alive" was the band's only brush with mainstream success. Their follow-up single, "No Big Deal", lived up to its name and limped to #82.

74. B Movie - "Nowhere Girl" (1982)

British group B Movie didn't have much staying power, but they certainly turned out a killer single with their debut "Nowhere Girl". It's classic new wave with an urgent rock 'n' roll kick. "Nowhere Girl" has an ominous excitement about it, like it should play during a late night action sequence in a violent, mysterious thriller. It's a tight performance and clever arrangement, with jaggedly echoing guitars and multiple intertwining keyboard parts that include the unforgettable main riff played on two distinct synths simultaneously, and an ascending counter-melody. There's even a brief acoustic guitar line near the end of the main instrumental section and piano vamping in the background to add to the song's drive.

Lyrically, "Nowhere Girl" seems to be about a guy trying his best to get through to someone who doesn't particularly want to be gotten through to, although since we only have his perspective we don't really know if he's sincere and she's in a bad situation, or if he's a bit of an obsessive stalker. The jittery vibe of the song hints at the latter. B Movie recorded a far inferior version for their 1985 album Forever Running that doesn't do the song justice. Seek out the 1982 original single mix -- it's new wave at its most immediate and impactful. A gem that should not be forgotten.

73. Tracy Chapman - "Talkin 'Bout a Revolution" (1988)

The opening track from Chapman's ground-breaking self-titled debut, "Talkin 'Bout a Revolution" is so timely it could have been written yesterday. As the follow-up single to the Top 10 hit "Fast Car", "Talkin 'Bout a Revolution" failed to match its predecessor's mainstream success, peaking for two weeks at #75 during October 1988. It's legacy as the lead track on Chapman's groundbreaking debut is much more significant than its chart position might signify. These lyrics could have easily been written today: "While they're standing in the welfare lines / crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation / wasting time in the unemployment lines / sitting around waiting for a promotion". As the country grapples with greater income inequality than at any other time in our history and nearly stagnant wage growth, Chapman's song very much captures the pulse of modern society, even though it was written almost three decades ago.

Just like "Fast Car", though, "Talkin 'Bout a Revolution" is fiery, idealistic, and a fable. The tables aren't "finally about to turn". Twenty-seven years have passed and poor people have yet to "rise up and take what's theirs". There will be no revolution in this police state, this oligarchy ruled by massive corporations.

72. Nirvana - "Blew" (1989)

Although Nirvana is understandably more generally associated with the '90s, the Seattle trio's first album Bleach was released during the summer of 1989. It didn't have much impact at the time, but in retrospect Bleach can be considered the album that cracked open the door to the genre-defining Nevermind, which hit like a colossal sonic meteor only two years later. Bleach has a rawer vibe and finds the band still developing its sound and songwriting skills, but there are moments of greatness.

Particularly strong is the album's torrid opener, "Blew". Kurt Cobain's ragged vocals follow along with his guitar, which then slithers into a brain-searing barbed-wire solo. It's clear even from these early tracks that Cobain's sense of drama and melody are both strongly developed. Still, this is Nirvana in its embryonic form. Teenage angst had yet to pay off well, and he's not quite bored and old. Yes, it's noticeably lacking Dave Grohl's missile-strike rhythmic power, but that's okay. The shambolic nature of the song is probably better for not having a sharper drummer. "Blew" is the best of early Nirvana, viscerally spiked garage-rock that's buzzing with energy and of things to come.

71. The Plimsouls - "A Million Miles Away" (1983)

The Plimsouls were a California band led by Peter Case, best known for their kinetic rocker "A Million Miles Away", which has the energy of a tightly coiled fist. Originally released as a single in 1982, the song received significant attention the following year when it was featured prominently in the iconic film Valley Girl. A re-recorded version appeared on their outstanding 1983 release Everywhere at Once, but the album sold poorly and the Plimsouls disbanded shortly thereafter. "A Million Miles Away" couldn't quite make headway on the pop chart -- it spent one week at #82 in early August 1983.

It should have been a bigger mainstream hit. It's a fiery power-pop gem with an expansive sound, chiming guitars and a soaring chorus. Lyrically, we don't exactly know where our narrator is spaced out, but he's definitely cut adrift emotionally from his current reality. Perhaps it's a matter of stagnating while he watches the world and everybody in it pass him by. Suddenly he realizes there's no place for him anymore, and what he thought he knew is now a mystery, and everything seems untethered. "A Million Miles Away" practically sparks with anxiety.

70. Faith No More - "We Care a Lot" (1987)

Mike Patton is overall a much better frontman and vocalist for Faith No More, except on one song: "We Care a Lot". Chuck Mosley spits the lyrics with acerbic scorn, with the repeated sardonic chant of "We care a lot!" over a heavy backbeat and Billy Gould's rumbling bass. Some of the things Mosley derisively singles out include "starvation and the food that Live Aid bought" and "the smack and crack and whack that hits the streets', skewering society's short media-driven attention spans and our tendency to focus on band-aids that make us feel good rather than personally working for change. He also takes down our love for empty artifice -- "We Care a Lot" enjoys the distinction of being the only song in this list with references to the Garbage Pail Kids and Transformers.

The song was originally recorded for the band's 1985 album We Care a Lot, a San Francisco-area release with limited distribution. The more widely-known version, and a far superior recording, came on 1987's Introduce Yourself. Faith No More would grow much tighter musically in the years to come, but the shambolic looseness of "We Care a Lot" fits its insolent vibe perfectly. It would have been impossible to envision that a mere five years later, Faith No More would score a Top 10 pop hit with their surprise smash "Epic".

69. Tom Tom Club - "Genius of Love" (1981)

Tom Tom Club was an offshoot of Talking Heads that found success with their quirky single "Genius of Love". Centered around the Heads' rhythm section of Tina Weymouth and Chris Frantz, and featuring frequent Talking Heads collaborator Adrian Belew on guitar, the infectious groove and dreamy, carefree joy that imbues "Genius of Love" makes it a classic. The second single from Tom Tom Club's self-titled debut album, "Genius of Love" was a massive success in the dance clubs. It hit #1 on the Billboard Dance Chart, and #2 on the R&B chart. On the Hot 100, "Genius of Love" climbed to #31, where it spent two weeks during the spring of 1982.

The genial, colorful, laid-back groove would become a favorite source of hip-hop samples, with everyone from 50 Cent, Ice Cube, Erick Sermon and Warren G incorporating it into their own work. Perhaps the most famous extrapolation came in Mariah Carey's chart-topping 1995 single "Fantasy". "Genius of Love" is part of the fabric of the early '80s pop and dance scene. Tom Tom Club would never again approach the same heights of success, although they did have a major alternative hit later in the decade with "Suboceana" from their 1988 album Boom Boom Chi Boom Boom.

68. Big Country - "In a Big Country" (1983)

Scotland's Big Country became a major creative force in the '80s and well into the '90s with a series of acclaimed albums, although in America they are best known for their exciting 1983 single "In a Big Country". Its distinct bagpipe guitar effect, the song's sonic signature, was achieved by running e-bowed guitars through a pitch transposer. The tight harmony vocals throughout the song give it a frantic sense of exuberance, a rush of rock and roll adrenaline that hasn't subsided in the 32 years since its release.

"In a Big Country" received enough MTV and radio play for it to reach #17 on the Hot 100. It was the first single from their outstanding debut The Crossing, which also yielded the lesser hit "Fields of Fire", and has achieved cult classic status among rock fans of the era. This story ends sadly, though. In December 2001, vocalist Stuart Adamson tragically hanged himself in his hotel room in Hawaii, after many years of battling alcoholism. "I thought that pain and truth were things that really mattered, but you can't stay here with every single hope you had shattered."

67. Ministry - "Stigmata" (1988)

Ministry's classic "Stigmata" is a massive industrial wall of sound with chainsaw buzz guitars, distorted vocals and deranged screams by Al Jourgensen. In case that isn't enough to cauterize your brain, there's also the earsplitting jackhammer electronic blast-beats. "Just like a car crash, just like a knife," Jourgensen sneers. "My favorite weapon is the look in your eyes!" The whole thing sounds like a heavy equipment metal machine shop in one of Hell's outer rings. "Stigmata" is the opening song and highlight of Ministry's 1988 album The Land of Rape and Honey, generally considered the most influential of their career.

"Stigmata" is sonic overdrive, so intense that it should melt the speakers. The enigmatic lyrics are too darkly abstract to interpret with any degree of certainty; Jourgensen may be ranting against hypocrisy among leaders and in society, or about a particular individual, or possibly he's looking at himself and raining bullets of self-loathing and disgust at his own skin. However one interprets the song, it's a powerhouse of loathing and rage -- you can feel the anger and disgust swirl up around the song like a dust-storm. Al Jourgensen would continue as Ministry's primary musical force well into the '90s, while simultaneously struggling with a sometimes debilitating drug addiction.

66. House of Love - "Shine On" (1987)

House of Love's stunning debut single "Shine On" is a cinematic swirl of delicate beauty, with a thunderous rhythm and Terry Bickers' darkly shimmering guitar. Everything is bathed in reverb, including Guy Chadwick's dramatic lead vocals and the glistening harmonies by Andrea Heukamp (who left the band prior to their first album being recorded). There is a classical, almost elegant feel to "Shine On" -- it rides the line close to melodrama, but it so staggeringly powerful that it doesn't feel pretentious. "Shine On" is distant and dreamlike, as if it's leaking through layers of space or time or another dimension.

It's what an indie pop band might sound like in a Nathaniel Hawthorne novel. The lyrics are as abstruse as the music, with lovelorn imagery that hints of emotional trauma through the haze of a feverish dream. It's redolent of late summer evenings, bittersweet memories of youth, and wrenching regret. A much crisper re-recorded version of "Shine On" was included on the House of Love's 1990 self-titled second album and became a sizable hit in the UK, but it lacks the spooky atmospheric magic of the original single version on Creation Records.

65. The Stranglers - "Golden Brown" (1981)

The Stranglers' "Golden Brown" is a shadowy carousel ride with multiple swirling keyboard parts, including a gilded harpsichord, that intertwine to create a diabolical musical facade. The song's unique time signature gives it a sense of uneven circular motion, like a top that's about to fall over on its side at any given moment. The nightmarish musical arrangement suits the bleak subject matter, as a river of barely-restrained desperation flows cooly just inches below the erudite neoclassical surface. Vocalist Hugh Cornwell recites the effects of a heroin rush in a flat, joyless affect. He's detached and remote, sonically replicating the floating lassitude that a user experiences.

Cornwell also provides a brief but luminous guitar solo that offers a momentary respite from the haunted kaleidoscope created by keyboardist Dave Greenfield and drummer Jet Black. Released as a single from The Stranglers' sixth album La Folie, "Golden Brown" became the band's biggest ever hit in the UK, reaching #2 despite its harrowing subject matter and unnerving atmosphere. It's a brilliantly conceived studio creation that arguably stands as The Stranglers' single greatest musical achievement.

64. The Go-Betweens - "Cattle and Cane" (1983)

The Go-Betweens were an Australian band built around singer/guitarists Robert Forster and the late Grant McLennan, who died tragically in 2006 of a heart attack at the young age of 48. "Cattle and Cane" explores the memories of McLennan's childhood in Queensland. It has a warm and wistful vibe, like a summery dream. The main melodic hook in the vocal is echoed by a stuttering guitar pattern that repeats throughout the song, and the guitar solos are simple and stately. The unusual time signature adds to the song's hypnotic mood. There is a quiet dignity to "Cattle and Cane", like McLennan is divulging his most treasured memories.

Each verse captures another period of McLennan's life, from his young boyhood, to adolescence -- "like everyone, just waiting for a chance" -- and then, his escape to "a bigger, brighter world / a world of books and silent times in thought." Always, though, his reveries are pulled back to those childhood fields of cattle and cane. There is a gently somber nostalgia to "Cattle and Cane" that is touching. As a recording, it's warm and resonant, uncluttered and precise. "Cattle and Cane" is a gleaming gem, a mark left by one man upon the world so that the fields of his childhood are never forgotten.

63. Gang of Four - "I Love a Man in a Uniform" (1982)

Gang of Four is one of the preeminent post-punk bands to emerge from the UK in the late '70s. Their lean, mean 1979 debut Entertainment! is an essential classic of its era. "I Love a Man in a Uniform", the only single from the band's third album, Songs of the Free, is an indolent strut with wicked attitude and nerve to spare. It contains one of the great double entendres of all time, "The girls, they love to see you shoot!", complete with the repeated sound of gunfire in sync with the spiky funk/rock groove.

"I Love a Man in a Uniform" savagely lampoons the would-be heroes who signed up for the British Army at the time of the Falklands War, rightly assuming there would be little chance of actual combat but eager to impress the ladies and each other, to escape their dreary daily lives, to boost their confidence and hopefully latch onto career opportunities. Vocalist Jon King's straight-faced delivery of the song's caustic sarcasm is perfect -- he captures the cocksure swagger of a man eager to become a stereotype that exists only in films or recruitment videos.

The song's sly, mockingly strident beat and the female backing vocalists belting out "I love a man in a uniform!" complete the satire with wit and brazen audacity. Brilliantly subversive, comical but also sharply pointed, "I Love a Man in a Uniform" is one of Gang of Four's greatest singles.

62. Liquid Liquid - "Cavern" (1983)

"No wave" pioneers Liquid Liquid, a four-piece group based in New York City, put out a handful of records in small batches at the beginning of the '80s. None of their recordings made much of a notable impact at the time of their release, but original vinyl copies now fetch ridiculously high prices (although all of their music is now widely available on reissues and compilations). Particularly essential is their 1983 Optimo EP, originally released on the tiny independent 99 Records. Optimo includes the band's most consequential piece, "Cavern", a wonderfully surreal mix of funky bass, Afrobeat percussion, sharp whip cracks, bits of nonsensical vocals by Salvatore Principato, ambience and atmosphere.

"Cavern" is more about a groove and a vibe than anything else, and that's all it needs to be. It's trippy headphone music of the highest order. The soul-shaking bass line was borrowed by the Sugar Hill band who used it to form the backbone of Grandmaster Melle Mel's early hip-hop classic "White Lines (Don't Do It)". "Cavern" and Liquid Liquid's music in general slowly became popular with knowledgeable DJs and musicians over the years, leading the group to reform in 2008. Perhaps their grandest moment of vindication came in 2011, when LCD Soundsystem chose Liquid Liquid to open their marathon goodbye concert at Madison Square Garden.

61. Grace Jones - "Private Life" (1980)

There is simply no denying that Grace Jones is badass in every way. Her take on "Private Life", a song originally written by Chrissie Hynde for The Pretenders' 1979 self-titled debut, is a prime example of her ultra cool. Jones has recorded many covers over the course of her career, and when she takes charge of a song and injects it with her fiery personality it no longer belongs to the original artist -- it's all Grace. She makes it seem like the song she's covering was written specifically for her to perform.
Her version of "Private Life" has a reggae vibe with swells of keyboard, weird spikes of synthesizer and pyretic bursts of guitar over the smooth, inexorable groove. Jones delivers the spoken-word verses in a throaty sexual cadence, and then sings the chorus with soulful beauty. "Private Life" is included on her Warm Leatherette album, which was recorded in the Bahamas with famed Jamaican reggae duo Sly and Robbie on bass and drums. It was her first ever pop hit in the UK, reaching #17, and raising her profile considerably as a musical artist demanding of respect.

Portland Fire & Rescue Responds to Overnight Fire in Apartment Building

August 19, 2011
8:23 AM

Portland firefighters responded to an apartment fire at NE Broadway late last night. Engine 19 arrived on scene at the Ellington apartments at 6524 NE Broadway at 11:06 PM to find heavy fire escaping from the upper story back windows of the unit. Crews conducted an aggressive fire attack to keep the fire from spreading to surrounding apartments. All occupants were able to escape safely, and no civilians or firefighters sustained any injuries.

"Nighttime is the most dangerous time for fire because people are sleeping, and firefighters have a heightened awareness that in the night our main priority is getting everybody out of the dwelling. We're very happy that everybody was able to escape safely," PIO Paul Corah said.

The apartment below the unit where the fire was found sustained water damage and the apartments on either side had smoke damage. Fire crews cleared the scene at 1:37 AM.

Fire investigators were called to the scene to determine the cause of the fire, which is unknown at this time. They estimate the damage to the apartment building at $50,000.

People older than 40 experience greater average declines in kidney function while taking Truvada (tenofovir/emtricitabine) as pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP).

Publishing their findings in The Lancet HIV, researchers from the iPrEx open-label extension (OLE) presented a new analysis looking at adherence to daily Truvada and kidney function test results.

The analysis included 1,224 initially HIV-negative transgender women and cisgender men who have sex with men (MSM) between the ages of 18 and 70 in Brazil, Ecuador, Peru, South Africa, Thailand and the United States. They were all given open-label Truvada and instructed to take it daily. The study did not restrict entry based on kidney function.

The participants made study site visits every 12 weeks—7,475 visits all told—at which their creatinine clearance, an indication of kidney function, was tested. For a subset of 220 participants, researchers took hair samples—at a cumulative 1,114 visits—to test for adherence to the daily Truvada regimen.

During a median follow-up period of 72 weeks, participants experienced an average decline in creatinine clearance of 2.9 percent. Those who were 40 to 50 years old at the beginning of the study saw an average creatinine clearance decline of 4.2 percent while those who were older than 50 experienced an average decline of 4.9 percent.

After adjusting the data for various factors, the researchers found that being older and starting the study with a creatinine clearance of less than 90 milliliters per minute predicted declines in kidney function. They also found an association between adhering well to Truvada and a decline in kidney function.

The researchers concluded: “Our data suggest that the frequency of safety monitoring for PrEP might need to be different between age groups and that pharmacological measures can monitor for toxic effects as well as adherence.”

Your Rights (And Advice) For Voting on Election Day in the U.S.

Today is a very political day for America. Passionate people for both parties are gearing up for an upset in either direction. Stores are boarding their windows in anticipation for riots. It’s a dangerous time. But all the while, we still need to vote. Voting is how we get people WE want in charge.

Not everyone has faith in the voting system right now, though. If you’re out at the voting booth, here are some important pieces of information to keep in mind. Follow these rules and pieces of advice and you should be able to get your vote counted.

  1. You have to be 18 to vote. There have been reports of people being turned down, claiming they had to be 21. This is a lie and an attempt to prevent young voters from being counted. If you are 18 or older, you are old enough to vote. If someone tries to stop you, escalate to a supervisor or contact the voter protection service.
  2. Don’t wear political clothing. Some folks may be tempted to wear hats or shirts boasting their political preference. Some people are reporting that they are being rejected by polling places for political promotion within a voting ground. This is a more tricky legal thing and should be avoided all together.
  3. If you are not registered to vote, a large number of states will allow you to register at the polling location. Look up if this applies to your state.
  4. If you make a mistake on a ballot, you are entitled to ask for a new one.
  5. If the ballot machines are down, you are entitled to a paper ballot.
  6. Be sure to fill out the ballot bubbles completely and cleanly.
  7. If you are still in line at a polling place and they hit closing hours, stay in line. They are required to process the remaining voters in line.
  8. Leave other voters alone. Confrontation can be seen as voter intimidation, regardless of context.

Concerned about your voter protections being infringed upon? You can call these numbers, which vary by state.

voter protection hotline numbers by state

Be safe everyone. Your vote deserved to be recorded. That’s what America was founded on, after all.

Our Mission

Prescience is dedicated in developing new technologies, providing know-how and transferring technologies in the field of materials and drug development. We aspire to democratize artificial intelligence (AI) augmented computational modelling and simulations for the benefit of industrial revolution in smart materials/molecules and faster drug development.

AI is becoming the 4th pillar of scientific innovation along with experimentation, theory, and modelling (Simulations). The major component of any scientific innovation starts from assumption followed by some early experiments and theory. Fine tuning of these experiments and theory is done through an understanding of the assumption (termed as mechanism) where modelling (Simulations) plays a significant role. In this scientists are adding AI to the equation for better understanding of data generated from all these theories, simulations and early experiments for better designing their final experiments. At Prescience, we have taken this challenge of integrating all these four pillars through the development of easy to use technologies that will cater to the materials and drug industry.

Computational modelling and Simulation

Computer simulations integrated with data analysis and AI can solve scientific problems, increase understanding of the systems, predict (design) materials, chemical, formulations, drugs and finally reduce the burden of experimental time (cost). We are pioneer in designing any materials (from small molecules to polymer to formulation) using computational (in silico) approach.

Artificial Intelligence

We are dedicated in taking advantage of AI in modelling and simulation to add value to each other. We are applying computing as a virtual laboratory environment (we call it in silico) that is an integration of mathematical and statistical tools with AI methods to assist in modelling and simulation. This integration is helping in customising modelling and simulation tool to develop knowledge-based systems to arrive at some conclusions.

Innovative GPU based low cost computation

Computational cost is one of the major limitation for integrating it at a very early stage of innovation in any R&D process. We are transforming this by innovating cost effective solutions without compromising in theoretical details. We have successfully implemented molecular simulation methods for large (~ 10 million particles) size systems in consumer level GPUs.

In this world, cutting edge innovations are only possible in collaborations and partnerships. We partner with industry, academia, government R&D labs, incubation centres, startups and individuals looking for solutions, mechanistic understanding and designing new entities (molecules, polymers, coatings, drugs etc) for any applications.

Indictment: The News Media and the Criminal Justice System (Book Review)

Reviewed by Alex Friedmann

Indictment, a report by the Freedom Forum First Amendment Center at Vanderbilt University, presents a hard look at the shortcomings of crime coverage by the press. The authors, two experienced journalists, condemn simplistic reporting of complex criminal justice issues that all too often is a mile wide and a millimeter in depth.

The growing trend among the news media is excessive, sensationalistic crime coverage that sidesteps discussion of effective solutions to crime and alternative approaches to punishment. Newspapers and T.V. news frequently are deluged with stories of murder and mayhem despite recent declines in crime. For example, while the national homicide rate has fallen by 20% since 1990 the number of murder reports on network newscasts has soared by almost 60% over the same time period.

Indictment notes that lopsided coverage of crime is at least partly attributable to the fact that the news media is a business, the public is a consumer, and crime reporting is profitable because it generates higher ratings. Crime sells and the press panders to people's apparent desire for "if it bleeds it leads"-style news coverage.

Using examples from today's headlines, Indictment presents compelling evidence that, to a large extent, the media has abdicated its responsibility to provide balanced and meaningful coverage of criminal justice issues. The result is a misinformed public with erroneous perceptions and an exaggerated fear of crime, which sets the stage for lawmakers to step forward with get tough "solutions" that may exacerbate the underlying problems.

Although not an in-depth examination, Indictment provides an overview of a variety of deficiencies in media reporting of crime and corrections-related topics. The report briefly discusses news coverage in relation to racial disparities in the criminal justice system, mandatory minimums and other sentencing issues, and widespread ignorance of legal procedures and court rulings among journalists. Particular attention is paid to cameras in the courtroom and methods of judicial election/selection.

Indictment is an excellent primer on the exploitative relationship between the media and the criminal justice system, and a copy belongs on every news desk in the nation as a reminder of the civic and social responsibility that a free press has to the public. Single copies of the report can be ordered at no cost from The Freedom Forum First Amendment Center, Attn: Publications, 1207 18th Avenue South, Nashville, TN 37212 (615) 321-9588.

A separate report by the Freedom Forum, Covering Crime, Courts and, Corrections, picks up where Indictment leaves off. Covering Crime goes beyond identifying the major problems of criminal justice reporting to set forth extensive recommendations for improving crime coverage. The report presents the results of round-table discussions involving journalists, law enforcement officials and community members.

Covering Crime is useful as a resource guide and educational tool for members of the news media; it can be ordered from the Freedom Forum Pacific Coast Center, One Market Street, Stuart Tower 21st Fl., San Francisco, CA 94105 (415) 281-0900.

Use These 15 Helpful Tips to Rest Well with ME/CFS

1 Star2 Stars3 Stars4 Stars5 Stars (8) votes, average: 4.25 out of 5

One of the cornerstones of living well with ME/CFS is getting your rests right – certainly, that’s what was true for me. When I did get my rest right, I had moments when I felt “okay” – when my brain fog was less and when I felt even normal. Those moments may well have been brief but oh, what a delight! Those moments felt so good, I started to look for more ways to rest well so, over several years, I ended up with lots of guidelines or rules. I didn’t always follow my “rules of rest” all of the time, but when I did it definitely made a difference. Hopefully, they’ll be helpful to use as well:

Helpful Tips to Rest Well with ME/CFS

1. Take more rest more often. Take more rest more often. This became a bit of a mantra for me because it seemed so important but so easy to forget. I found it worked best to work out how many hours of rest I needed in a day, to divide the total into twenty or thirty minute rests, and to then take them spread throughout the day.

2. Lie down in the quiet to rest. Anything else – talking, watching tv, reading, internet surfing, sitting – felt like an activity to me. I downloaded a variety of meditations and relaxation recordings so as to not get bored. Nature sounds were good too, but I found that podcasts or audio books would keep my mind too busy. Not what I wanted!

3. Rest before you get tired. I love what this rule gave me: moments of sanity, moments of feeling well. A real relief amongst all the difficulties of ME/CFS symptoms. It takes a lot of total rest (perhaps three to four times what you’re already taking), some discipline and, possibly, a number of weeks before you get results but it was definitely worth it for me. I used to think if my body gets overtired it’s got to then put a lot of energy in recovery – better to make sure it doesn’t have too.

4. Be consistent. After a major relapse, I was desperate to get back to my old “ME/CFS’” life. I knew rest was important, and it made sense to me that the more consistent I could be, the more effective resting would be. Every time I thought of missing a rest, I found myself saying “I want to improve; I do better with rests; I’d better have this rest.” If I still ended up not having a rest, I’d use the fact I felt worse next time I dithered: “Remember how I felt last time.” I didn’t know at the time but consistency is one of the key characteristics of people who have learned to live well with ME/CFS. It made a big, big difference to me and help me pace myself

5. Value yourself, value your rests. For quite a few years, I found it really difficult to put rests as a high priority: other people’s and household needs came before mine. Then gradually – helped by counselling – I started to see myself and my needs as important. Without even focusing on it, I became more insistent – and consistent – about my rests. It was a very subtle change but looking back I can see what a difference valuing myself – when I was able to – made to me.

6. Watch out for what the voices in your head are telling you. I used to frequently tell myself – as I was resting – “I shouldn’t be tired” or “I shouldn’t need this much rest.” Or, when I was thinking of having a rest “You can’t stop now.” Saying instead: “Ali, you’ve got chronic fatigue syndrome. Of course, you need to rest” seemed to help. Other good ones are: “It’s good to rest,” “It’s safe to rest,” and my favorite “I do better with plenty of rests.”

7. Experiment. I’d never thought of experimenting until I did the CFIDS & Fibromyalgia Self-Help Program. One of my experiments was taking more rests than I thought I needed for a week and seeing how I felt. (Better). Other ones were: resting on my back; trying different relaxation recordings; using pre-emptive rests. The idea is to try something for a week and then review.

8. Don’t go to sleep when you rest. This was drummed into me from early on in my ME/CFS treatment journey, but everything I read about looking after your night-time sleep supports this. Plus, it’s pretty hard to get to sleep in twenty minutes with a souped-up ME/CFS mind! If you are sleeping during the day, you may want to wean yourself off your sleeping rests slowly and cautiously. I know how anxious I could get if I didn’t get my rest so I’m guessing that this might be even truer, if you rely on a snooze.

9. Rest outside as much as possible. I admit I am a bit of an outdoor freak but by using heated up wheat bags and blankets, I had my rests outside for much of the UK winter when my ME/CFS was at its worst. I found I do better outside; you may find the same is true for you too.

10. Use your rest time and up time as a way of knowing your energy envelope. When my ME/CFS was at its worst, I was desperate to improve, but I just couldn’t see how to do it in a controlled way. Then, when I started to manage both my down time and my up time, I had a eureka moment. Each week, I would set those times. See how I did for that week and then – if the week had gone well, either increase my up time or decrease my down time by a small percentage. This gave me a handle on how to slowly manage to do more. It did rely on the activities I did when I was up all being pretty similar though. If anything was too draining, I just made sure I didn’t spend long on it.

11. Try a different way of resting if you feel too restless. When I was having four or five hours of rest a day, I always got restless at some point. I used to then lie downstairs in the midst of things rather than in the quiet. Other suggestions are getting up for ten minutes, and then lying down again; or doing something relaxing such as bath, having a hot drink and then trying to rest again. Sometimes, I would lie there getting annoyed with the relaxation recording I was listening to as it told me to “relax deeply.” I’d either get up or I’d switch to one with less pressure: mindfulness ones are good for this.

12. Change what you’re doing if something is stopping you having rests when you need them, especially if it’s a regular occurrence. After a couple of years of working one long day with insufficient rests, I finally accepted that it was still affecting my fatigue level two days later and I needed to make a change. Two short work days gave me better control over my rests again.

13. If you work, make sure you have a lie down at lunchtime, however short your lunch break is. I used to fit a fifteen-minute lie down into a thirty-minute break. I just felt I was putting my body under too much pressure otherwise.

14. Use pre-emptive rests for when you’ve got something big coming up. When I had an event coming up that I knew would stretch my energy I would make sure I took extra rests beforehand. These rests meant I felt more confident that I could handle the energy requirements of the situation.

15. Take responsibility for your rests. These are the “rules” that worked for me; these are the rules I owned and followed. I read up about resting, I experimented, and if I didn’t agree with somebody’s view, I tried to get a sense of their thinking.

But most importantly, I created a way of resting well that worked for me, that benefited me. Feel free to take any or all of my “rules,” but don’t forget to make them your own! Good luck.

Without prejudice

Litigant in person

Admission by tenant in landlord’s solicitor’s office

Sang Kook Suh v Mace (UK) Ltd

[2016] EWCA Civ 4

The Court of Appeal held that admissions concerning rent arrears which were made by the tenant, a litigant in person, to the landlord’s solicitor during discussions at the landlord’s solicitors’ office were protected by “without prejudice” privilege and were inadmissible at trial.

A landlord (D) of restaurant premises forfeited its tenants’ lease. The tenants, C1 and C2, issued proceedings as litigants in person, claiming damages for wrongful forfeiture. C1 attended the office of D’s solicitor (S) and proceeded to discuss how the case was progressing. S claimed that C1 admitted during that meeting that she and C2 had been in rent arrears, and that she had discussed with C2 the possibility of D letting her out of the claim without liability for costs if C1 made a statement in support of that admission. A second meeting took place some weeks later, during which S claimed that C1 had reiterated her admission and her intention to get out of the litigation.

D made an application seeking to rely on C1’s statement containing the admission.

First instance

The judge held that C1 had made the admission, despite her later denial of it, and admitted the statement on the basis that the meetings had not been conducted on a “without prejudice” basis. The Cs’ claim was dismissed and they appealed to the Court of Appeal.

  • Whether the discussions during the meetings were without prejudice given D’s contention that their purpose was not to negotiate a settlement;
  • Whether privilege should be denied because Cs were using the cloak of “without prejudice” for perjury; and,
  • Whether any privilege had been waived by the Cs’ response to D’s application notice.

The Court of Appeal allowed the appeal. In relation to the above issues it held as follows.

(1) The Judge had taken a narrow view of whether the discussions were to be regarded as negotiations genuinely aimed a settlement; a broader view was required (see Rush & Tompkins Ltd v Greater London Council [1989] AC 1280 and Ofulue v Bossert [2009] UKHL 16, [2009] 1 AC 990). Where litigants in persons are concerned, whilst it may be more difficult to determine objectively whether discussions are negotiations genuinely aimed at settlement, in the instant case the only sensible purpose for the meetings must have been to seek a solution to the litigation for C1 – that falls within the meaning of “settlement”. Further, in the instant case, there was no justification for dividing the discussions into parts that were open and parts that were without prejudice, since such an approach is not consistent with the broad view required by the authorities. Thus the entirety of the discussions at the meetings and in C1’s witness statement attracted the protection of privilege and were prima facie inadmissible.

(2) There was no evidence to establish C1 had used the cloak of “without prejudice” discussions for what the judge found to be lies contained in her statement. Whether or not the judge was justified in saying C1 had lied in denying her earlier admissions, the fact that she had later denied those admissions could not be construed as an attempt to use the exclusion of evidence as a cloak for perjury or other impropriety (see Unilever Plc v Proctor & Gamble Co [2000] 1 WLR 2436).

(3) The question of whether privilege had been waived required an objective evaluation of the Cs’ conduct in the context of the purpose of the “without prejudice” privilege, in order to determine whether it would be unjust for Cs to argue the admissions were privileged. As D had indicated it intended to bring the admission to the Court’s attention and to thereby ignore the privilege, it would be unjust to hold Cs’ unguarded response amounted to a waiver of the privilege itself. Therefore, the Cs were entitled to argue the admissions were privileged and they had not waived such privilege.

The first instance decision could not stand as reliance had been placed on the admissions in deciding whether rent payments had been made.

IPL 13: Raina back in India; to miss entire season

August 29, 2020 01:47 PM

NEW DELHI: In a major blow to Chennai Super Kings, veteran batsman Suresh Raina will not be available for the upcoming edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) slated to be played in the UAE from September 19. The IPL franchise informed on Saturday morning that Raina has returned to India for "personal reasons".

"Suresh Raina has returned to India for personal reasons and will be unavailable for the remainder of the IPL season," CSK CEO K.S. Viswanathan was quoted as saying on the official Twitter handle on the Chennai-based franchise. "Chennai Super Kings offers complete support to Suresh and his family during this time."

The development comes a day after it was reported that 12 members of the CSK, including players/coaching/support staff, tested positive for Covid-19. Sources told IANS on Friday that the entire CSK team had been quarantined after the development.

"A total of 12 members have been found infected and the entire team has been told to go under quarantine. It is learnt that they got infected during a camp in Chennai," said the sources. "Other teams have also requested the BCCI to issue a statement for the safety of the cricketers in the UAE." CSK had landed in Dubai on August 21 and underwent the mandatory six-day quarantine period.

Raina recently announced his retirement from international cricket, brining an end to a career spanning 13 years in which he represented India in 18 Tests, 226 ODIs and 78 T20Is.

The 33-year-old has so far played 193 games for CSK in which he has accumulated more than 5,000 runs at a strike rate of above 137. Besides, he has also picked 25 wickets.

IPL is a good training ground for players: Gower

September 02, 2020 08:43 AM

NEW DELHI: The Indian Premier League (IPL) is a good place for young cricketers to cut their teeth in top level cricket, according to former England captain and commentator David Gower.

Gower noted that there has been a shift in focus in the IPL where it demands younger players in the team now as opposed to what used to be the case earlier where older players at the end of their careers would play in the lucrative T20 tournament.

"I think overall IPL has been very good for cricketers both for the homegrown and the international players," Gower said on SportsTiger's show 'Off-the-Field'.

"Ever since the games have got shorter from the time of the invention of ODI, fielding has become incredible. I think T20 has changed a lot since the first days of IPL when IPL was taking some of the great players from around the world at the end of their career. But now, one wants the young players. I feel it is a very good training ground for players."

He said that the IPL isn't going to make you a great Test player but it gives an opportunity for those who are not able to play long form cricket to make the most out of their talent.

"Kieron Pollard is one of the world's best T20 players but he knows as well as I do that he cannot play Test cricket, he isn't good enough to play Test cricket," he said.
