Major Rivers Of The British Isles - River Stour

Major Rivers Of The British Isles - River Stour: 

Excerpt: ″There is much controversy and debate as to where the name Stour originates, with historians believing that the word could come from three different language groups.The Celtic word sturr means strong or powerful, which would be an appropriate name for a river, and as two of England’s River Stours are situated in England’s former Celtic stronghold of the Midlands, this is a more than credible origin.The medieval, French word stour means confusion or commotion, which could well have been attributed to that of a particularly unnavigable river. England's Norman French history goes back over a thousand years and with one of the River Stours' estuary located on the English Channel, there is also some credibility to this origin.The German word stuhr means formidable or violent, a word which could well have been attributed to a fast, flowing river. Considering England's Saxon history, and the facts that two of the River Stours drain into the North Sea – a usual route into England by the Saxons - therefore the origin of this word also has some credibility. Therefore, it is possible that each of England’s five River Stours could all have a different etymology.″

New study shows Fibromyalgia likely the result of autoimmune problems | King's College London

New study shows Fibromyalgia likely the result of autoimmune problems | King's College London:

Excerpt: ″many of the symptoms in fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) are caused by antibodies that increase the activity of pain-sensing nerves throughout the body. The results show that fibromyalgia is a disease of the immune system, rather than the currently held view that it originates in the brain. 

 The study, published today in the Journal of Clinical Investigation, demonstrates that the increased pain sensitivity, muscle weakness, reduced movement, and reduced number of small nerve-fibres in the skin that are typical of FMS, are all a consequence of patient antibodies. 

The implications of this study are profound. Establishing that fibromyalgia is an autoimmune disorder will transform how we view the condition and should pave the way for more effective treatments for the millions of people affected. 

Our work has uncovered a whole new area of therapeutic options and should give real hope to fibromyalgia patients. Previous exploration of therapies has been hampered by our limited understanding of the illness. This should now change. Treatment for FMS is focussed on gentle aerobic exercises, as well as drug and psychological therapies designed to manage pain, although these have proven ineffective in most patients and have left behind an enormous unmet clinical need

Trump Administration Gives All Clear to Laundering Money through Shell Companies and Bribing Foreign Officials

Trump Administration Gives All Clear to Laundering Money through Shell Companies and Bribing Foreign Officials: 

Excerpt: ″On February 10, President Donald Trump issued an Executive Order that suspended the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) for 180 days, giving an all clear to U.S. corporations to bribe officials in foreign countries to get business deals approved. 

The order bars federal prosecutors from starting any new FCPA investigations, enforcing new actions and orders a review of existing FCPA investigations to “restore proper bounds” on applying the FCPA law. 

 The FCPA, enacted in 1977, has been the law of the United States for almost half a century....its purpose as follows: “Foreign bribery is a scourge that must be eradicated. It undermines the rule of law, empowers authoritarian rulers, distorts free and fair markets, disadvantages honest and ethical companies, and threatens national security and sustainable development.”″

ADAMSKI – "Killer" – Popular

ADAMSKI – "Killer" – Popular: 

Brilliant piece of cultural analysis:

Excerpt: ″“Killer” was a disturbing record from its cover inwards – Adamski’s pet dog scowling at the camera, at an angle, while a queasy orange psychedelic backdrop swirls in the background – and perhaps its most disturbing factor was the fact that the title is never uttered at any point in the song. Yet it didn’t need to be; the backwards boomerang of the fade-in intro quickly gives way to a brutal variant on post-Acieed beats, with a rhythm and right-angled bassline which are demonstrative and in your face but also questioning. Both lyric and vocal delivery – both provided by an unknown singer named Seal – personify anxious urgency. Seal’s vocal here is like a grainier, colder rationalist Richie Havens, but he is pleading for warmth and bonding and, indeed, a true society. “Solitary brother! Is there still a part of you that wants to live?” he cries as the music gradually escalates behind him; the car horns following in the trail of the charity fundraising sideswipe “Will you give (if we cry)?,” the scythes of stuttering cymbals which enter with “Tainted hearts,” the stately string synth lines which essentially halve the speed of the song’s topline in preparation for the chorus; all seem like totems of a crumbling Establishment which Seal is urging that we bring down. The cut-up of the “be” in the line “The way we wanna be” symbolises the attempts by unconcerned government to turn the living human into a docile machine but is instantly defeated by Seal’s half-ecstatic growl of “Yeah!” which in turn leads directly into a minor key Jack-The-House piano line, percussion dots and loops – and a sampled dog bark – raining all around. In the third line of the final chorus Adamski’s synth plays a tortured, high-register melody, like a weeping computer; and finally it settles with Seal’s closing, out-of-tempo warnings: “Racism in amongst future kings can only lead to no good…and besides…all our sons and daughters already know how that feels” before culminating in a sad smile of a 1967 memory: “Yeah, yeah, yeah…Love, love, love.” It is one of the most minimally articulate anti-New Right protests in all of pop – and little wonder that neither Adamski nor Seal ever surpassed this, that Adamski settled for novelty Elvis covers (and, later, anonymous ambient techno) or that Seal (with the aid of Trevor Horn, producing his most commercially successful work and also his worst) became merely a slightly higher-tech Cat Stevens. “Killer” is the necessary conscience of a culture which should have changed everything.″

Social Security Administration to require in-person identity checks | AP News

Beginning March 31st, people will no longer be able to verify their identity to the SSA over the phone and those who cannot properly verify their identity over the agency's "my Social Security" online service, will be required to visit an agency field office in person to complete the verification process, agency leadership told reporters Tuesday. 

The change will apply to new Social Security applicants and existing recipients who want to change their direct deposit information.

Retiree advocates warn that the change will negatively impact older Americans in rural areas, including those with disabilities, mobility limitations, those who live far from SSA offices and have limited internet access.

Excerpt: ″ According to the United States Travel Association's (USTA) biannual US travel forecast, prior to the pandemic, international visitors spent $180bn in the US in 2019, generating nearly $2 trillion in economic output. To put that in perspective, France – the world's most-visited country, which received 90 million visitors in 2019 compared to 79.4 million in the US – saw roughly $61bn (€56bn) in revenue from international tourism that year. While that $180bn number dipped during the pandemic, the USTA notes that visitor levels are set to recover by 2025.″

The Bullshit Stinking Up Silicon Valley | Ed Zitron on enshittification

The Bullshit Stinking Up Silicon Valley | Ed Zitron: 

Excerpt: ″Ed Zitron is one of Silicon Valley’s fiercest critics. Since A.I’s arrival, Ed has virulently exposed its singular lack of intelligence, its huge energy demands, and the dangerous way its hoovering up attention and capital on nothing more than the vague promises of a couple of zealots. He joins me to reveals the myths that abound in the Valley, and the reality that everyone has run out of ideas. He explains that Big Tech is no longer run by techologists but by “barely smart” capitalists who are desperately banking on A.I. to create a new hyper growth market to pull their flailing companies out of their slumps. He walks us through the “enshittification” of tech — why things are getting worse, who’s in charge, who’s pretending to have ideas, and how these powerful men build up their images as geniuses rather than grossly wealthy headless chickens.″

New UK governance and regulatory requirements coming up in 2024

What’s on the horizon? New UK governance and regulatory requirements coming up in 2024: 

Excerpt: ″The introduction of a new corporate Failure to Prevent Fraud (FTPF) offence for large companies″ qwith large companies being a company or partnership that meets two or more of the following criteria:

1. Annual turnover of more than £36 million
2. Total assets exceeding £18 million
3. More than 250 employees

AI adds: the UK government has introduced a new offence making it a criminal act for organisations to fail to prevent fraud committed by their employees or associated persons. This offence was established under the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act 2023. ​gibsondunn.com+6ganintegrity.com+6morganlewis.com+6theguardian.com+4thetimes.co.uk+4gibsondunn.com+4

Under this legislation, an organisation can be held criminally liable if an associated person, such as an employee or agent, commits a specified fraud offence with the intention of benefiting the organisation or its clients. Notably, this liability applies even if senior management was unaware of the fraudulent activity. ​ganintegrity.com+2gibsondunn.com+2morganlewis.com+2

However, organisations have a defence if they can demonstrate that they had "reasonable" measures in place to prevent such fraud. ​

Penalties for organisations found guilty of this offence include unlimited fines, potential reputational damage, and exposure to civil litigation. While there is no provision for individual liability under this specific offence, individuals involved in the underlying fraud can still be held personally accountable under existing fraud laws. ​akingump.com

The offence applies to fraud committed under UK law or targeting UK victims, regardless of where the organisation or associated person is based. ​cadwalader.com

H. G. Wells and the Uncertainties of Progress — The Public Domain Review: 

Excerpt: ″Even when a new technology starts to catch on, it may be hard to imagine what the consequences of its success will be. In a 1932 radio talk, Wells used the example of the growing chaos on the roads to point out how difficult it had been to foresee the consequences of making motor cars available to a wider public when they were first introduced. It was now obvious that the road network would have to be redesigned to cope with the increased traffic. He called for the universities to have “Professors of Foresight” to grapple with the unintended consequences posed by future inventions.″
