Because of what Mair said when he attacked Cox, the activities of the far-right group Britain First have also come under the spotlight. Although its leader, Paul Golding, was quick to distance the group from Mair's comments, the group has acquired a para-military image because of the training camps it runs for members and its pledge to take direct action against Islam.

When I returned to school after missing the first 8 weeks to take care of my nugget, I spent a lot of time trying to catch up. I’m still catching up. But one thing I couldn’t wait to get back into – visiting classrooms to do lessons!

Blonde hair, a wild stride with highly lifted knees, and - most of all - a wide open mouth. These were the trademarks of the biggest female star of the Melbourne Olympics.

It is a time when the Church calls us as our Mother to enter into the silence and hope of waiting. Many of us live in cultures of instant gratification, so Advent is rich in spiritual truths.

Seemingly directed at President Trump, Profit: The Stupid View of President Donald Trump is in fact addressed to the mass of discontented voters, workers, and citizens. The great benefit of reading this book is that the attentive reader will grasp the key issue missed by Karl Marx, John Maynard Keynes, and President Trump, as well as Trump's recently appointed advisors. The key issue is also missed by the staid and settled establishment that is the contemporary economics professoriate.

We propose a simple, elegant solution to use a single Neural Machine Translation (NMT) model to translate between multiple languages. Our solution requires no change in the model architecture from our base system but instead introduces an artificial token at the beginning of the input sentence to specify the required target language. The rest of the model, which includes encoder, decoder and attention, remains unchanged and is shared across all languages. Using a shared wordpiece vocabulary, our... Читать дальше...

It has been a long and lovely autumn with some of the best autumn color I have seen in many years.  The day before Storm Angus arrived was glorious, crisp, cold and sunny and the tulip tree looked quite wonderful and at its most golden, with just the occasional leaf detaching itself and drifting gently downwards.

Post-punk trio Cowtown are in a hurry of their fourth album Paranormal Romance, making their way through twelve songs in about 22 minutes. The Leeds band dabbles a bit in surf, insert a snippet of the Bangles' Walk Like An Egyptian ( "Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh") into Tweak, before moving back to safer Ramones territory, They love to double-track their vocals, smoothing out their rougt-and-ready sound, with Motivational Speaker and Castle Greyscale as the prime examples. The latter sounds like... Читать дальше...
