Any waiver on Rumbo's part to any right or power granted by the General Conditions must be in writing. The omission on Rumbo's part to demand the strict enforcement of any condition will not be considered as a waiver, nor will deprive Rumbo of the right to demand, at a later time, the strict enforcement of them.
All terms and conditions on these General Conditions are ruled by the Spanish law and the parties, waiving their own jurisdiction, submit themselves to the Courts of Madrid for any action or claim which could arise from this relationship, provided no specific jurisdiction is established by law.
Rumbo offers the User the possibility to access its Website in different languages. Nevertheless, should any contradiction arise between the different versions of these General Conditions, the Spanish version will prevail over the rest.

In this article, Java Development Company experts will discuss traversing, filtering, processing collection, and method enhancements use with lambda. We will take you to the tour of Java SE 8 features and make a deep dig and explore the code and explain how to traverse the collection with Lambda expression and method references.
1. Traversing Collections with Lambda Expressions
Java SE 8 features enable developers to use lambda expressions to traverse a collection of items. The collection includes lists, maps, and sets. All of these data types implement the iterable interface. You can read the following points to understand the code:
• Work on class- traverse FileContent.java under package – eg.com.tm.java8.features.lambda2.
• Right-click the method name readAllLines
• Show Javadoc
Java SE 8 Comes With A Couple Of New Methods- For each, And Spliterator.
Each accepts an instance of a functional interface known as Consumer. The consumer interface has one abstract method known as accepting.
Developers can clean up the code by removing old traversals. This single code line takes over the three lines of the forEach loop. They can make a copy of the code and move down to the version which using an iterator. Developers may select code lines and comment and paste their version of Lambda expression. It means when they replace an iterator they are replacing four code lines with just a single line.
2. Filtering Collections Using Predicate Interfaces
Java SE 8 also supports the latest functional interfaces, such as Predicate. Predicate interface has a single Boolean method known as a test, which can be used to wrap up the condition; processing and clean the conditional code.
There are two primary ways to design a predicate. You can create it where you implement the java.util.function.Predicate interface. The second way is through lambda expression- this is the favorite way of developers. It is a short cut way to design a java predicate.
3. Traversing Collections with Method References
Apart from lambda expressions, Java SE 8 also has method references to the language. With method reference, developers (working in Java App Development Company India) can name a method they want to call, instead of calling it directly. This feature also aims for making codes more concise and readable. Method references can use on four types of methods-
• Static methods of any class
• Instance methods of an arbitrary object
• Instance methods of a specific object
• References to constructor methods

Dysphagia is difficulty swallowing, causing the sensation of improper passage of food or liquid from your mouth to stomach. People often describe it as food getting "stuck" or "not going down right" after they swallow. Dysphagia is typically classified as oropharyngeal or esophageal based on the location of the problem. Oropharyngeal dysphagia is a defect in the chewing and initial swallowing that takes place as food is transferred from the mouth, pass the tonsils and the beginning portion of the esophagus. This discomfort comes within one second of the swallowing process and is accompanied by coughing, choking, drooling, or nasal regurgitation. Esophageal dysphagia describes a defect in the swallow once that passes from the back of the mouth, into the esophagus and finally the stomach. Discomfort is typically felt in the throat, chest, or upper stomach and may be accompanied by vomiting. It is important to notice if you have difficulty with solids, liquids, or both.Read More
There are many causes of dysphagia, which include neuromuscular disorders, structural problems, and motility disorders. Common neuromuscular problems include stroke, Parkinson's Disease, Lou Gehrig's Disease, hypothyroidism, myasthenia gravis, polio, and polymyositis. Common structural problems are cancer, inflammation (viral or post radiation), enlarged thyroid gland, enlarged lymph nodes, foreign objects, Schatzki rings, esophageal webs, strictures, or complications from previous surgeries. Motility disorders may be due to scleroderma, spasms, sphincter dysfunction (e.g. achalashia), or infections.
Dysphagia is evaluated by taking a detailed history in combination with imaging tests and procedures including a modified barium swallow study, esophagram, esophoduodenoscopy (EGD), and/or manometry.

Renowned Classics: Shadow of the Colossus
July 16th, 2010 - Jason
"Indeed, the longer any given internet debate about video games being art drags on, the more likely it is that someone will mention Shadow of the Colossus."
Though it was only in the previous generation of console gaming that we saw Shadow of the Colossus hit shelves, it has since sparked much discussion in the gaming community. The game is renowned for being a testament to the PS2's capabilities as a machine, a huge addition to the PS2's excellent game library, and is used as a primary example as to why video games should be considered art. Indeed, the longer any given internet debate about video games being art drags on, the more likely it is that someone will mentioned Shadow of the Colossus.
Shadow of the Colossus was met with overwhelmingly positive reviews from critics, much like Ico (a cult hit from the same developers); however, unlike Ico, its 'spiritual successor' sold a huge number of copies in its opening weeks. It also received many, many awards.
If you haven't yet played Shadow of the Colossus, as a user of the internet you may or may not have stumbled across many famous screen-shots of this game on your way to finding pictures of various naked wo(men)… or furries. Screen-shots featuring mighty, gargantuan beasts as they roam the plains of the Forbidden Land and stare your hero right in the eyes… and possibly try to squish him.
But could one consider this masterpiece of gaming… art? I believe you could, but no more so than any other game, in any genre. I'm not going to delve too much into this debate (I'll leave that for the more articulate and intelligent than I). However, I will say that Shadow of the Colossus is clearly a significant title in the history of gaming. Its unique style, story, game play, and expansive world with sixteen jaw-dropping bosses has given it lasting appeal.
But does a game have to have a beautiful set of colours or unique art direction to be considered art? If you simply examine the landscapes and enemies in the game, you may find that to be art in and of itself. But art can be – and is – more than that. Couple the graphics with the feeling of loneliness that sweeps over you as you ride your horse across the expansive landscape, which is so devoid of anything, yet so full. Add the game's use of music (or in some cases the lack of it), and this adds to the experience. Think about the fact that video games are inherently an interactive medium – an interactive art form. Consider the player's empathy towards the relationship between the main character, his loved one, and his horse. Simply put, art can make you feel. Art addresses human experience.
This got me thinking about characters, and why we as gamers like or dislike them. Why did I feel so attached to Agro the horse, for example? He can't offer you assurances, nor can he make witty remarks when the timing is just right.
So why do I want to cuddle him so? I can offer no definitive conclusion, but perhaps it's because of all we went through together in this virtual world, the stupid horse and I. I felt like he was my companion because he was always there for me when I whistled, and because we had slain many a colossus together. This works in a similar fashion for humans. Surely I would feel more fond of any given person if we had just survived the trials and tribulations of, say… a zombie apocalypse. Of course, with human characters comes a whole new can of worms, but that's a discussion for another time.
Many game designers, artists, and developers as a whole draw inspiration from this unprecedented title. Shadow of the Colossus is not just unique in its story and artistic style, but also in its technical capabilities, immersion, music, and contribution to its medium. Perhaps even the art world, too. Truly a game ahead of its time. Let's keep our fingers crossed for a PS3 HD release.

Physics 18 Questions
Thermodynamics Reading Check and HW
Key Concepts:
Terms in this set (36)
What is the origin and meaning of the word thermodynamics?
Thermodynamics is from the Greek root meaning movement of heat.
"The study of heat and its transformation into different forms of energy."
Coined by Lord Kelvin
Is the study of thermodynamics concerned primarily with microscopic processes or with macroscopic ones? Why?
Macroscopic, because atoms were unknown at the time thermodynamics was created.
"early workers had only vague notions of atoms, and knew nothing of elections and other microscopic particles; their models invoked macroscopic notions: mechanical work, pressure, temperature."
By how much does the volume of a gas at 0°C contract for each decrease in temperature of 1°C when the pressure is held constant?
the gas will contract 1/273 of its volume for each degree C decrease, given constant pressure.
Suggests that the limit of coldness is -273.15°C-- absolute zero.
By how much does the pressure of a gas at 0°C decrease for each decrease in temperature of 1°C when the volume is held constant?
the gas pressure will decrease 1/273 of its pressure for each °C decrease, given constant volume.
Suggests that the limit of coldness is -273.15°C-- absolute zero.
If we assume the gas does not condense to a liquid, what volume is approached for a gas at 0°C if it is cooled by 273°C?
The gas will contract to a zero volume by this rule. Clearly cannot have a substance with zero volume!
What is the lowest possible temperature on the Celsius scale? On the Kelvin scale?
0 Kelvin
*and -459.7°F!
Is the principal concern in the study of thermodynamics the amount of internal energy in a system or the changes in internal energy in a substance? Why?
Thermodynamics concerns
in internal energy from a substance, because measuring the amount can be complex. Indicated by changes in temperature.
Internal energy is the total E (KE+PE) of submicroscopic particles that make up a substance.
What is the zeroth law of thermodynamics?
Two systems in thermal equilibrium with a third system are in equilibrium with each other.
So named after 1, 2, 3rd laws named.
How does the law of the conservation of energy relate to the first law of thermodynamics?
Adding heat flow to the law of conservation of energy gives the first law of thermodynamics.
"When heat flows to or from a system, the system gains or loses an amount of energy equal to the amount of heat transferred."
Heat added to a system = increase in internal energy + external work done by the system.
What is meant by a system?
a well-defined group of atoms or objects,
molecules, particles.
ex.) body of a living creature, steam in a steam engine, Earth's atmosphere
What is the relationship among heat added to a system, a change in the system's internal energy, and external work done by the system?
The heat added to a system is equal to the change in internal energy plus the external work done by the system.
What happens to the internal energy of a system when mechanical work is done on it? What happens to its temperature?
mechanical work done on a system:
internal energy increases
temperature increases
What condition is necessary for a process to be adiabatic?
No heat enters or leaves the system. "impassable"
thermally insulate the system
If work is done on a system, does the internal energy of the system increase or decrease? If work is done by a system, does the internal energy of the system increase or decrease?
system: internal energy increase. Bike pump use warms up.
system: internal energy decreases. Open tire escaping air cools down valve.
How do meteorologists express the first law of thermodynamics?
Air temperature rises as heat is added or as pressure is increased.
Air temperature may be changed by +/- heat, changing pressure of air (involves work), both.
Solar radiation (heat)
moisture condensation
warm ground contact
What is the adiabatic form of the first law of thermodynamics?
Air temperature rises (or falls) as pressure increases (or decreases).
Characteristic by parts of air (parcels) pressure lessens, allowed to expand and cool. Reduced pressure = reduced temperature.
What generally happens to the temperature of rising air? Of sinking air?
Rising air cools.
Sinking air warms up.
Decreasing and Increasing T
What is a temperature inversion?
When higher elevations in the atmosphere are warmer than lower elevations.
Usually higher elevations are cooler than lower elevations.
*mountains vs valley weather!
Do adiabatic processes apply only to gases? Defend your answer.
Adiabatic processes can even occur in the liquid ocean (deep currents circulating per 1000 years) and inside Earth (convection currents in molten material under crust)
How does the second law of thermodynamics relate to the direction of heat flow?
Heat of itself never flows from a cold object to a hot object.
In winter, heat flows from warm inner house to cold outer air. In summer, heat flows from hot exterior to cooler interior.
Heat flow = from
What three processes occur in every heat engine?
Heat flows into a system from a hot reservoir, work is done by the system, and heat flows out to a cold reservoir
What exactly is thermal pollution?
Undesirable discarded heat
*expelled heat from oven on a hot summer day= undesirable
*expelled heat from laundry on a cold winter day= desirable
How does the second law of thermodynamics relate to heat engines?
The second law expresses the
efficiency of a heat engine in terms of hot and cold temperatures.
When work is done by a heat engine operating between two temperatures, *T*(hot) and *T*(cold), only some of the input heat at *T*(hot) can be converted to work, while the rest is expelled at
n work is done by a heat engine operating between two temperatures, *T*(hot) and *T*(cold), only some of the input heat at *T*(hot) can be converted to work, while the rest is expelled at
n work is done by a heat engine operating between two temperatures, *T*(hot) and *T*(cold), only some of the input heat at *T*(hot) can be converted to work, while the rest is expelled at *T*(cold).
"All systems tend to become more and more disordered as time goes by."
Why is the condensation part of the cycle in a steam turbine so essential?
To prevent the backward push on the turbine blades by exhaust gasses
Without condensation (pressure), counterproductive
Distinguish between high-quality energy and low-quality energy in terms of organized and disorganized energy. Give an example of each.
High-quality energy is organized.
ex.) gasoline, turbulent water
Low-quality energy is disorganized.
ex.)dispersed thermal energy, water pooled after waterfall
How can the second law of thermodynamics be stated with regard to high-quality and lower-quality energy?
High-quality energy tends to transform into lower-quality energy.
Order tends toward disorder.
Quality of energy is lowered with each transformation, as energy degrades
With respect to orderly and disorderly states, what do natural systems tend to do? Can a disorderly state ever transform into an orderly state? Explain.
Natural systems tend to go from order to disorder unless work is done on them to bring order out of disorder.
*Open lid of bottle; molecules escape and disorder; will not order back into bottle!
What is the physicist's term for the measure of the amount of disorder?
Entropy: natural dispersing or degrading of energy.
ex.) Energy locked in chem bonds in wood degrades when wood burns.
Total amount of entropy in a system tends to increase with time (while available energy for work decreases)
*batteries go dead even w/o use
Discuss the first and second laws of thermodynamics in terms of whether or not exceptions occur.
1st law has no exceptions. 2nd law exceptions are possible but improbable. Law nutshell:
"You can't win" (can't get more output than input)
"You can't break even" (can't get as much output as input)
"You can't get out of the game" (entropy forever increases)
What is the third law of thermodynamics?
No system can have its absolute temperature reduced to zero.
When air is quickly compressed, why does its temperature increase?
The pressure is increased, thus air temperature increases as per the 1st Law and meteorology:
Air temperature rises as heat is added or as pressure is increased.
What is the ultimate source of energy in coal, oil, and wood? Why do we call energy from wood renewable but energy from coal and oil nonrenewable?
Sunlight is the ultimate source of energy in coal, oil and wood. However, the energy in wood is renewable relatively quickly by new growth, while coal and oil's energy is from the Sun of many years ago.
How does the ideal efficiency of an automobile relate to the temperature of the engine and the temperature of the environment in which it operates? Be specific.
Ideal efficiency proves an upper limit to all heat engines. Friction is always present in all engines, and efficiency is always less than ideal. Only some of the heat can be converted to work, even if the environment conditions are ideal. Heat is expelled to the environment via the cooling system and exhaust.
Could you cool a kitchen by leaving the refrigerator door open and closing the kitchen door and windows? Explain.
The heat flow will be from the warmer kitchen air to the cooler refrigerator.
A refrigerator moves heat from cold to warm. Why does this not violate the second law of thermodynamics?
The refrigerator uses a pump to move a fluid around, compress and evaporate the fluid, causing it to absorb and release heat. The cooling of the interior of a refrigerator does not violate the laws of thermodynamics because work has to be input to the system in order to run the compressor that helps pump the heat out of the refrigerator.In each instance where there is heat transfer, the heat moves from the warmer to the colder part of the system - in keeping with the second law.
Also, the 2nd Law can have exceptions.
The ocean possesses enormous numbers of molecules, all with kinetic energy. Can this energy be extracted and used as a power source? Defend your answer.

One of my favourite John Peel sessions is the 1978 recording of The Human League. At this stage their debut single Being Boiled had only been available for a couple of months, and the group had barely made it out of Sheffield. Somehow, Peel managed to coax them out for a very early taste of their very early material.
It opens with Blind Youth, later from the debut album Reproduction, in a particularly raw and unpolished version. It's a bit too energetic and suffers from some timing problems in places, but it's great to hear an alternative take on it.
No Time is next, a brilliant early version of The Word Before Last, also from the debut album. Then what I gather was an early live favourite, a cut-down version of You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling, which also appears on the first album and sounds every bit as good here, cut down to a mere four-and-a-half minutes instead of the album's nine.
The version of debut single Being Boiled that follows is exceptional. It was still hovering around the lower reaches of the charts at the time of this session, but already The League were playing with it, tweaking sounds here and there. It sounds fantastic.
Perhaps due to The Human League's subsequent lineup changes, most of this session has never been officially released. Which is a great shame – perhaps now would be a good time? Being Boiled appears on the compilation Movement – The Peel Sessions (1977-1979), which looks worth a listen and is available here.

Castor & Pollux —
Castor & Pollux did what only the leader in organic pet can do: we set the new standard with the introduction of the only comprehensive portfolio of purposeful pet food. We elevated our ORGANIX® recipes to all be USDA Organic – making it the only complete line of USDA organically certified pet food – and introduced PRISTINE® – the only complete line of pet food made with responsibly sourced ingredients.
What is Purposeful Pet Food? —
We know you put a lot of care and effort into what you eat – meticulously choosing natural foods that are also carefully cultivated to be safe. And, we know you also care deeply about how you feed your pets. Not just the quality of ingredients, but importantly, how those ingredients are sourced or cared for before they make it to your pet's bowl.
Feed Organic
ORGANIX® is America's #1 Organic pet food and the only complete line of USDA organically certified pet food.
Feed Responsibly Sourced
PRISTINE® is the only complete line of pet food made with responsibly sourced ingredients, such as wild-caught salmon and grass-fed beef.
America's #1 Organic Pet Food
Selected Castor & Pollux ORGANIX canned recipes must meet extremely detailed and difficult third-party organic certification requirements for each and every ingredient, our production process, organic ingredient storage and handling, and more. The USDA's National Organic Program (NOP) regulates the way organic food and ingredients are raised or grown, handled, processed and stored.
How to Transition
From Another Food: Slowly transition your pet by choosing one of Castor & Pollux's high quality diets for your cat or dog. Mix the Castor & Pollux food with your current pet's food over the course of 5-7 days. Continuously increase the amount of the Castor & Pollux food while decreasing the amount in your dog or cat's current diet.

Frequently Asked QuestionS
It All Started With Joey…
an adorable puppy with sad brown eyes rescued from the humane society. Joey's human parents, Shelley Gunton and Brian Connolly, started a pet food business just to keep him satisfied and healthy.
That Was 18 Years Ago.
As pet parents, Shelley and Brian understood how people truly consider their pets to be members of their family. They saw an opportunity to do better by making high quality, healthy food for dogs and cats using natural & organic ingredients - that was the beginning of Castor & Pollux Natural PetWorks.
We Assembled a Team of Experts
in animal nutrition, organic and natural ingredients, processing, packaging, distribution, veterinary medicine, and technology to provide pet parents with healthy, safe and innovative choices for their dogs and cats. That goal continues to drive us today.
Healthy, Safe & Innovative Choices for Your Pets
Going Organic
It's a phrase you've probably heard when it comes to the food you put on your table, organic options can play a large role in your overall health. But can a natural and organic diet benefit your pet too? The answer to that is simple, YES! The potential benefits of an organic diet for your dog or cat include a reduction of allergies and itchy skin, reduced digestion problems and better health overall. Castor & Pollux is proud to be a leader in natural, organic food for your pets.
Castor & Pollux set the new standard in pet food with the introduction of the only comprehensive portfolio of purposeful pet food. We elevated all ORGANIX recipes for dogs and cats to be USDA Organic, made with 95 percent or more certified organic ingredients – including our kibble. And, we introduced PRISTINE, the only complete line up of pet food made with responsibly sourced ingredients.

A whirling eddy is whipping leaves into a spiralling frenzy as Broadsheet approaches the matte-black building bearing nothing but a MYTH banner. We're met by one of the organisation's "founders" – though he dissuades us from using that word – and conducted inside. It's all a bit mysterious.
We first caught wind of MYTH while looking into soon-to-open restaurant Bai Long Store. MYTH is behind the venue's concept and graphic design. One call put us in touch with its instigator – who asked not to be named – and the conversation took a turn.
"What can you tell us about Bai Long?"
"It's exciting. But there's something else, something I've been working on, that's going to really shake things up."
"Ok, sounds cool. Tell us about that."
"I can't."
An invitation to visit the MYTH digs followed, leading us to the corner of Hutt and Wakefield Streets on a blustery summer afternoon. It was time for answers.
MYTH discovered the premises during a site visit at Bai Long Store. One look inside and the team was itching to put pen-to-lease. "We were blown away by its specific infrastructure and removed location within the CBD," our MYTH member tells us.
Previously a recording and DVD-pressing business, the interior is a maze of double-glazed windows and poky, angular offices. These will be repurposed as a music-and-sometimes-yoga-studio, a bar (licence permitting) and a base for ongoing operations.
So, MYTH is a multipurpose space-for-hire? Well, only sort of.
When pressed for what exactly will be going on within the compound-like black walls, only hints were dropped. "[We] plan to action experiences that promote a cultural shift in the way this city currently views the arts," our MYTH member says.
So, MYTH is an events company? No, not entirely.
MYTH worked with Studio-Gram while developing the graphic identity for Bai Long Store, which is immediately to our left. It also contributed creative direction and label design for new Adelaide gin brand Lyrebird Gin.
So, MYTH is a design agency? Not quite.
MYTH has two principals, but not in any traditional sense. Its members describe their team as "Equal and driven", which is to say they don't adhere to a traditional hierarchy.
MYTH is anonymous. The brand supersedes the personal identities of those involved and acts as a super-identity, capable of contributing to local culture in a way others aren't, our host tells us. "I deleted my social media. My [previous] brand is finished. I don't exist anymore." Strange words from someone standing not two feet away. But in a business sense, it's true.
So what makes a young creative with a few notable jobs to his name decide to just fade away? MYTH is a revolt against name-dropping culture and "celebrity", he tells us. It is inspired by the expressive energy crackling through cities such as Berlin and New York. "The experiences we've collectively shared amongst the international arts scene have driven our conceptualisations for MYTH."
So it's a collective? Yes, sort of.
"MYTH is forward-thinking individuals looking to shift Adelaide into a more aware headspace."
Broadsheet will be following MYTH with interest over the coming months. A media launch is promised for March next year. In a small town like Adelaide, with a close-knit arts scene, it's only a matter of time before those associated with MYTH are revealed. But in the meantime, MYTH remains, well, mythical.

City Council Pro Tempore Michael Correia of Ward Six extends his gratitude to the first responders who acted quickly and diligently to put out last night's fire at the Hasbro Children's Hospital.
"The men and women who serve as first responders in the City of Providence are the best in the nation," stated City Council Pro Tempore Michael Correia. "The fire at the Hasbro Children's Hospital could have been catastrophic, but because a young visitor to the hospital noticed the flames, our city's firefighters were able to act and put it out quickly. As always, I'm grateful for the work of all our first responders."
The fire at Hasbro Children's Hospital was a 2 alarm fire and did not impede the work of the hospital's staff.

Article by Bryan Howard
March 15, 2019
The New Zealand mosque shooter created a manifesto that is being labeled as right-wing, however this does not seem to be the case. Breitbart News lays out portions of this individuals manifesto that establishes he does not agree with either the left nor the right. But he does agree with big Socialist government like the left and describes himself as a Socialist. This is because he identifies like a Hitler Socialist who views racial superiority.
The Shooter claimed he used a Gun for the shooting in order to cause tension within the United States in hopes to spark a civil war over gun rights. And he even praised the fact he believed 'Conservatism is dead.' However, that is not true Conservatism is thriving and rejuvenating in the United States since 2010.
Breitbart News wrote, "Yet elsewhere in the document, the shooter describes himself as a socialist, "depending on the definition." The shooter also declares his support for "environmentalism," "worker's rights," and "responsible markets.""
Breitbart News continued, "On the one hand, the manifesto presents the political left as an enemy that conducted a "march through the institutions" and describes Antifa, communists, and Marxists as "anti-white scum." Elsewhere, the shooter writes that "under some definitions," he is both on the right and the left."
The shooter wrote that he does not identify with Conservatives and praised he believed it was dead.
Breitbart News: "Elsewhere, the shooter disparages conservatism and declines to identify with it, writing that "conservatism is dead, thank god," and calling it "corporatism in disguise." Conservatives, he says, "don't even believe in the race, they don't have the gall to say race exists" and "don't even care if it does.""
Breitbart News: Shooter wrote, "The notion of a racial future or destiny is as foreign to them as social responsibilities."
The shooter was hoping to start a civil war within the United States by triggering the left to make a gun grab after his shooting.
Breitbart News: "At three points in his manifesto, the shooter also states his intention to spark a civil war in the United States by triggering crackdowns on the Second Amendment. In his laundry list of motivations, the shooter spends the most amount of time discussing this goal, which he believes will ultimately lead to a "fracturing" of the U.S. along "cultural and racial lines.""
Breitbart News: "As he describes it, his attack will "Create conflict between the two ideologies within the United States on the ownership of firearms in order to further the social, cultural, political, and racial divide within the United States.""
The shooter wrote, "This conflict over the 2nd amendment and the attempted removal of firearms rights will eventually result in a civil war that will Balkanize the U.S. along political, cultural, and most importantly racial lines."
Breitbart News: "Elsewhere in the manifesto, the shooter predicts that his attack will lead to "calls for the removal of gun rights from whites in the United States… that is the plan all along.""
Breitbart News: "While the shooter lists a number of highly lethal methods he might have used to carry out the act of terrorism, he states that he chose firearms "for the effect it would have on social discourse, the extra media coverage they would provide and the effect it would have on the politics of the United States and thereby the political situation of the world.""
Shooter wrote, "With enough pressure the left wing within the United States will seek to abolish the second amendment, and the right wing within the U.S. will see this as an attack on their very freedom and liberty. The attempted abolishment of rights by the left will result in a dramatic polarization of the people in the United States and eventually a fracturing of the U.S. along cultural and racial lines."

This year in Humanities, students will be spending their time examining
historical events in US History, while analyzing and problem
solving along the way. At Rye Junior High, we believe that students learn best when they are able to
take control of their own learning, and can analyze new information in a way that allows them to
form opinions, solve problems, and grow as individuals.
In Humanities, students will not be memorizing names, battles, or dates. Instead, we will
examine historical events of the United States to identify patterns, examine the effects on the
economy, the citizens, and our culture. Students will use reading, writing, and analytical skills to
create high quality projects designed to promote their personal interests.
In the past few years, staff at RJH have been working to implement Project Based Learning,
which allows students to demonstrate what they know and are able to do with new information
while creating something new, either collaboratively or independently.
We are continuing our journey with PBL, and are piloting a more Personalized Learning
approach in Humanities. Every trimester, students will examine and assess their progress
through learning standards and skills. With teacher assistance, they will develop a Personalized
Learning Plan, which will guide their work for that trimester.
This opportunity allows students to develop a deeper sense of responsibility for their learning,
and have a practical outlook on their strengths as well as areas of growth. Student Personalized
Learning Plans will be available to families at all times on the student's Portfolio website.
To view the trimester overview for both 7th and 8th grade, click here. Or, visit our Hamanities web site!
We are available by email
(firstname.lastname@example.com, firstname.lastname@example.com) or phone (964-5591).
We are looking forward to a productive, student focused year!

Born in Saigon, Vietnam, Lien Truong's work examines social, cultural, and political history. Through a hybridity of painting materials and philosophies, her practice explores the influences that form belief systems in a transcultural context. Her work has been included in exhibitions at the National Portrait Gallery; North Carolina Museum of Art; Station Museum of Contemporary Art; Weatherspoon Art Museum; Oakland Museum of California; Nhasan Collective and Galerie Quynh, Vietnam; Art Hong Kong; S.E.A. Focus, Singapore; and Southern Exposure. Her awards include fellowships from the Institute of Arts and Humanities and the North Carolina Arts Council, and residencies at the Oakland Museum of California and the Marble House Project. She has received reviews and mention in ArtAsiaPacific, The San Francisco Chronicle; Houston Chronicle; Oakland Tribune; New American Paintings, and ARTit Japan.
"I interpret moments that have shaped racial, cultural, and religious conflict and assimilation in America, creating a frenetic visual amalgamation of art historical references, landscapes indicted in violence and tragedy, and civil rights icons in oil and on silk. Through a type of blended history painting, my work refers to the complex cultural histories that mirror the American lens."

"It was fantastic as well. Just the precision in the dancing was amazing. You don't usually see that in some of the other performances. And that was beautiful, really, really nice."
"One thing for me was that when they were saying you can't see a performance like this in China. That was kind of eye opener because you think that China is a lot more progressive now, but it's a shame."
"I liked the fact that all through the performances there was a thread of the spiritual realm that was put into it. So I thought that was very nice that it mentioned God, the Creator—it was a good message."
"Their message is well accepted by us and I'm sure thousands and millions of others."
