What about the artists?
The Guardian - Wed 14 Oct 2020
The government is deaf to the plight of freelance musicians and othercreatives
On Monday, a number of British arts organisations finally heard whether they had received grants from the £1.57bn bailout fund announced in July by the chancellor, Rishi Sunak. Not a moment too soon, institutions such as Wigmore Hall in London, Bristol Old Vic and the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra have been given a cash bufferthatshould keep them alive until March.
The welcome announcement has been marred, though, by the failure of the government to address the question of freelancers and self-employed people in the arts. In an interview with ITV last week, Mr. Sunak was asked what he thought professional musicians ought to do, given that they can’t earn enough to live. He answered that up to 3 million people in the country qualified for help under the self-employed support scheme. Pressed on whether musicians oughttofind differentwork, he mentioned retraining schemes that are "providing new and fresh opportunity”. People must adapt, he said. He added that it was untrue that there was no work for musicians. Music lessons, in his own household at least, were still going on.
The interviewer’s question was specifically about musicians - a third of whom have been ineligible for the selfemployed support scheme. So even if, as he later asserted, Mr Sunak was talking about the workforce as a whole rather than cultural workers in particular when he spoke of the need to retrain, he certainly gave a strong impression of indifference to and ignorance of musicians’ plight. This was reinforced on Monday when a government-backed advertisement went viral, launching hundreds of derisive parodies. Aiming to recruit workers into cybersecurity roles, it showed a dancer doing up her ballet shoes. It read: "Fatima’s next job could be in cyber (she just doesn’t know it yet)”.
The culture secretary, Oliver Dowden, was forced to condemn the advertisement as "crass” as his day of good news descended into farce and contumely. The government seems unable to grasp that putting money into the arts infrastructure is only part of the solution; creatives themselves need to be helped to survive economically too. Though some institutions are putting work on stage - and will be helped to do so in the months to come by the rescue package - these events will necessarily be small-scale, representing a drop in the ocean compared with the industry working at full tilt.
New digital business models are being explored, but they are in their infancy and are not going to pay next month’s rent. Moreover, performance dates in the diary - that is, employment opportunities for freelancers - amount to perilous bets against the future course of the virus. As infections soar, organisations are bound, quite rightly, to be cautious, particularly in the face of the catastrophic failure of the government’s test-and-trace scheme.
Meanwhile, musicians and others are certainly "adapting” - often to unskilled, low-paid work, though there is not much of that to go around. The government’s continued implication that musicians and other creative workers - many of whom have trained since childhood for some of the most demanding, competitive and highly skilled work in the economy - are somehow not "viable” is both insulting and ignorant. Underlying Mr Sunak’s remarks was the tired old Tory notion that creative jobs are not "real jobs”, and are undertaken by some fantastical species who are not, in fact, real people. Perhaps the chancellor should ask his family’s music teacher what it’s really like for artists right now - and actually listen to the answer.

Social Distancing, Without the Police
Letting members of the community enforce social
distancing is the better way.
Of the 125 people arrested over offenses that law
enforcement officials described as related to the
coronavirus pandemic, 113 were black or Hispanic. Of
the 374 summonses from March 16 to May 5, a vast
majority — 300 — were given to black and Hispanic
New Yorkers.
Videos of some of the arrests are hard to watch. In
one posted to Facebook last week, a group of some
six police officers are seen tackling a black woman in a
subway station as heryoung child looks on. “She's got
a baby with her!” a bystander shouts. Police officials
told The Daily News the woman had refused to comply
when officers directed her to put the mask she was
wearing over her nose and mouth.
Contrast that with photographs across social
media showing crowds of sun-seekers packed into
parks in wealthy, whiter areas of the city, lounging
undisturbed as police officers hand out masks.
So it is obvious that the city needs a different
approach to enforcing public health measures during
the pandemic. Mayor Bill de Blasio seems to
understand this, and he has promised to hire 2,300
people to serve as social distancing “ambassadors.”
Hopefully, the mayor will think bigger.
One promising idea , promoted by City
Councilman Brad Lander and others, is to build
quickly a kind of “public health corps" to enforce
social-distancing measures.
In this approach, specially trained civilians could
fan out across the neighborhoods and parks, helping
with pedestrian traffic control and politely encouraging
New Yorkers entering parks to protect one another by
wearing masks and keeping their distance. Police
Department school safety agents, who are not armed,
could help. Such a program could also provide muchneeded employment for young people, especially with
New York's summer jobs program, which serves
people 14 to 24, threatened by budget cuts.
Another method to help social-distancing efforts
may be the community-based groups that have been
effective in reducing gun violence in some of the city's
toughest neighborhoods.
The Police Department would play only a minimal
role in this approach, stepping in to help with crowd
control, for example, something it does extremely
well.
Without a significant course correction, the
department's role in the pandemic may look more and
more like stop-and-frisk, the policing tactic that led to
the harassment of hundreds of thousands of innocent
people, most of them black and Hispanic, while rarely
touching white New Yorkers. Mr. de Blasio has scoffed
at the comparison, though it's not clear why.
Aggressive police enforcement of socialdistancing measures is nearly certain to harm the
health and dignity of the city's black and Hispanic
residents.
It could also diminish respect for the Police
Department. Which is why it makes sense that the
city's largest police union has said that its members
want little to do with social-distancing enforcement.
“The N.Y.P.D. needs to get cops out of the socialdistancing-enforcement business altogether,” Patrick
Lynch, president of the Police Benevolent
Association, said in a statement on May 4. On this
issue, Mr. Lynch gets it.
New York is facing a public health crisis, not a
spike in crime. Black and Hispanic New Yorkers are
already suffering disproportionately from the
coronavirus. They don't need more policing. They
need more help.

Robot priests can bless you, advise you, and even perform your funeral
By Sigal Samuel Updated Jan 13, 2020, 11:25am EST
A new priest named Mindar is holding forth at Kodaiji, a 400-year-old Buddhist temple in Kyoto, Japan. Like other clergy members, this priest can deliver sermons and move around to interface with worshippers. Mindar is a robot, designed to look like Kannon, the Buddhist deity of mercy, and cost $1 million.
As more religious communities begin to incorporate robotics — in some cases, AI-powered — questions arise about how technology could change our religious experiences. Traditionally, those experiences are valuable in part because they leave room for the spontaneous and surprising, the emotional and even the mystical. That could be lost if we mechanize them.
Another risk has to do with how an AI priest would handle ethical queries. Robots whose algorithms learn from previous data may nudge us toward decisions based on what people have done in the past, incrementally homogenizing answers and narrowing the scope of our spiritual imagination. One could argue, however, that risk also exists with human clergy, since the clergy is bounded too — there’s already a built-in nudging or limiting factor.
AI systems can be particularly problematic in that they often function as black boxes. We typically don’t know what sorts of biases are coded into them or what sorts of human nuance and context they’re failing to understand. A human priest who knows your broader context as a whole person may gather this and give you the right recommendation.
Human clergy members serve as the anchor for a community, bringing people together. They provide human contact, which is in danger of becoming a luxury good as we create robots to more cheaply do the work of people. Robots, notwithstanding, might be able to transcend some social divides, such as race and gender, to enhance community in a way that’s more liberating.
Ultimately, in religion as in other domains, robots and humans are perhaps best understood not as competitors but as collaborators. Each offers something the other lacks.

Injured ape
Nisha Gaind (Bureau chief, Europe). This X-ray shows a baby Sumatran orangutan (Pongo abelii) with a fractured arm. Conservation workers rescued the animal, named Brenda, from a village on the Indonesian island where she had reportedly been kept illegally as a pet. As editors, we see lots of photographs of conservation, but this image struck me for many reasons: the ‘humanness’ of Brenda’s shape, her innocence and the dedication of the conservation centre, which flew in a surgeon to operate on the animal.

America’s future will be written in the two mega-states
In the cable-news version of America, the president
sits in the White House issuing commands that
transform the nation. Life is not like that. In the real
version of America many of the biggest political
choices are made not in Washington but by the
states—and by two of them in particular. Texas and
California are the biggest, most important states in
the union, each equally convinced that it is the
future. However, their rules and regulations are
basically opposite to each other.

The world has a handful of great commercial hubs.
Silicon Valley dominates technology. The home of
luxury is Paris and the capital of outsourcing is
Bangalore, in India. One of the mightiest clusters of
all is London, which hosts the globe’s largest
international financial center. Within a square mile
on the Thames, a multinational firm can sell $5bn of
shares in 20 minutes, or a European startup can
raise seed finance from Asian pensioners. You can
insure container ships or a pop star’s vocal cords.
Companies can hedge the risk that a factory

WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE?
The conversation around aging in the
U.S. must change—both in
Washington and among industry
stakeholders. This will require
players in the ecosystem proactively
working together to solve
interoperability challenges,
committing to value-based care and
accommodating and supporting
caregivers and patients alike.
Supporting partnerships between
hospitals and community
organizations that provide more
support for caregivers and
reimbursing patients for tools outside
of the healthcare ecosystem will be
critical. By working together, the
healthcare system can support aging
gracefully and living happier,
healthier lives.
Speaking of which, our friends at
HLTH have launched a new
conference with the goal of bringing
industry players together to discuss
how industry verticals can work
together to solve complex challenges in healthcare—including addressing
the aging population. Check out their
website to learn more and read their
latest blog on the aging U.S.
population.

“Isn’t Nancy through in the kitchen yet?” Mother said. “It
seems to me that she has had plenty of time to have finished the
dishes.”
“Let Quentin go and see,” Father said. “Go and see if Nancy is through, Quentin. Tell her she can go on home.”
I went to the kitchen. Nancy was through. The dishes were put away and the fire was out. Nancy was sitting in a chair, close to the cold stove. She looked at me.
“Mother wants to know if you are through,” I said.
“Yes,” Nancy said. She looked at me. “I done finished.” She looked at me.
“What is it?” I said. “What is it?”
“I ain’t nothing but a nigger,” Nancy said. “It ain’t none of it my fault.”

The editor-in-chief of one of the world’s most prestigious
medical journals has said doctors and medical professionals
should engage in protests to address climate change. Richard
Horton of The Lancet said that engaging in these protests is part
of the duty of a doctor. He said that the General Medical Council
(GMC) should be fully supportive of health professionals who
engage in climate protests based on its own guidelines on the
duties of a doctor. His statement comes after multiple health
organizations have taken action on climate change in the United
Kingdom.

When we think of deadly poisons, most of our minds will
jump instantly to arsenic. George III of England, Napoleon
Bonaparte and the Gaungxu Emperor of China are all thought to
have died from its effects — either from a deliberate
assassination or accidental exposure. Just 200 milligrams —
around the weight of a raindrop — is enough to kill someone
within two hours. The first sign is a metallic taste in your mouth,
followed by vomiting and seizures, and death. It sounds horrific
— but arsenic is positively innocuous compared to other
substances.
Consider tetrodotoxin (TTX), a poison found in puffer fish and blue-ringed octopuses that leaves you paralysed as your body goes through some agonising reactions. “Your lips and tongue will begin to burn, your mouth will erupt with saliva and you’ll get very sweaty,” Dominic Burgess from BritLab explains. “You’ll no longer be able to speak, swallow, seizures will begin and your body will slowly shut down — all while you are completely lucid but unable to move.” Death comes after six hours of symptoms and there is no antidote.
Often these poisons are alarmingly close to home. One lethal chemical — cardiac glycoside digoxin — can be found in a common garden flower, while the deadliest can be seen in many hospitals; just 2 kg would be enough to wipe out the whole of the human race.

Yury Azhichakov set out early by bike for Senogda
Bay, his favorite beach, on the northwestern shore of Lake
Baikal in Siberia. The world’s oldest, deepest and most
voluminous lake, Baikal holds 20 percent of the planet’s
unfrozen freshwater. It is often described as the world’s cleanest
lake.
As Mr. Azhichakov discovered, that is no longer the case. Senogda’s once pristine sands were buried under thick mats of reeking greenish-black goo.
“This stuff stretched far into the distance, for several kilometers,” said Mr. Azhichakov, 61, a retired ecological engineer. “The beach was in terrible condition.”
The muck, scientists have discovered, follows mass algal blooms at dozens of sites around Lake Baikal’s 1,240-mile perimeter. Confined to shallow water and shores near towns and villages, the problem seems to stem from an influx of untreated sewage – the result of inadequate wastewater treatment.
Algal blooms threaten iconic freshwater bodies around the world, including the Great Lakes, Lake Geneva, and Lake Biwa in Japan. But Lake Baikal is especially precious: a World Heritage site home to more than 3,700 species, more than half found nowhere else.
“People are dumping sewage, waste and rubbish around the lake, creating pretty appalling conditions in some places,” said Anson MacKay, an environmental scientist at University College London.

The youngest of Uchendu’s five sons, Amikwu, was
marrying a new wife. The brideprice had been paid and all but
the last ceremony had been performed. Amikwu and his people
had taken palm-wine to the bride’s kinsmen about two moons
before Okonkwo’s arrival in Mbanta. And so it was time for the
final ceremony of confession.
The daughters of the family were all there, some of them having come a long way from their homes in distant villages. Uchendu’s eldest daughter had come from Obodo, nearly half a day’s journey away. There were twenty-two of them.
They sat in a big circle on the ground and the young bride in the centre with a hen in her right hand. Uchendu before her, holding the ancestral staff of the family. The men stood outside the circle, watching. Their wives also. It was evening and the sun was setting. Uchendu’s eldest daughter, Njide, asked her, “Remember that if you do not answer truthfully you will suffer or even die at childbirth”.
