Basketball analyst Dick Vitale, who has been with ESPN since the 1979-80 season, has signed a contract extension through the 2019-20 season. "ESPN has been my second family. Everyone knows my love for my wife, kids and grandkids, but ESPN has also been a vital part of my life for 38-plus years," Vitale said. "I've met so many beautiful people there who have meant so much to me. I'm beyond thrilled about this new contract -- it's pure joy and jubilation for me and my family." Vitale will be the main analyst on regular-season games, primarily on ESPN and ESPN2, and the "Champ Week" coverage. He also contributes to other ESPN platforms, including ESPN Radio and ESPN.com. Before joining ESPN, the Basketball Hall of Famer coached at the high school level for eight years, before moving on to colleges and then to the NBA in May 1978, as coach of the Detroit Pistons. "Dick Vitale is an ESPN PTPer -- our signature college basketball voice for 38 years," ESPN president John Skipper said. "He has grown the sport and the place of ESPN in the sport. He is, literally, a Basketball Hall of Famer who has augmented a remarkable on-air career with a tireless passion for helping others, highlighted by his remarkable work on behalf of The V Foundation." Off the court, he's been honored for his charitable work, perhaps most notably as a fundraiser and board member for The V Foundation for Cancer Research. He also works with the Boys & Girls Clubs and Make-A-Wish, among others.

In what amounts to an 11th hour "gift" by the outgoing Obama administration to Tehran's leadership to keep the country, which on Sunday was involved in yet another shooting incident with a US destroyer, content and compliant with Obama's landmark "Nuclear deal", the AP reported that Iran is to receive a huge shipment of natural uranium from Russia to compensate it for exporting tons of reactor coolant. The move was approved by the outgoing U.S. administration and other governments "seeking to keep Tehran committed to a landmark nuclear pact." AP cites two senior diplomats who said that the transfer which was recently agreed by the U.S. and five other world powers that negotiated the nuclear deal with Iran, foresees delivery of 116 metric tons (nearly 130 tons) of natural uranium. U.N. Security Council approval is needed but a formality, considering five of those powers are permanent Security Council members, they said. The swap is in compensation for the approximately 40 metric tons (44 tons) of heavy water exported by Iran to Russia since the nuclear agreement went into effect. Another 30 metric tons have gone to the U.S. and Oman. While Uranium can be enriched to levels ranging from reactor fuel or medical and research purposes to the core of an atomic bomb, Iran has claimed it has no interest in such weapons and its activities are being closely monitored under the nuclear pact to make sure they remain peaceful. As we reported at the time, Tehran previously received a similar amount of natural uranium in 2015 as part of negotiations leading up to the nuclear deal, in a swap for enriched uranium it sent to Russia. But the new shipment will be the first such consignment since the deal came into force a year ago. The news comes ahead of a meeting in Vienna, where of representatives of Iran, the United States, Russia, China, Britain, France and Germany will review Iranian complaints that the U.S. was reneging on sanctions relief pledges included in the nuclear deal. As AP adds, "the uranium agreement comes at a sensitive time. With the incoming U.S. administration and many U.S. lawmakers already skeptical of how effective the nuclear deal is in keeping Iran's nuclear program peaceful over the long term, they might view it as further evidence that Tehran is being given too many concessions." The diplomats said any natural uranium transferred to Iran after the deal came into effect would be under strict surveillance by the U.N.'s International Atomic Energy Agency for 25 years after implementation of the deal. They said Tehran has not said what it would do with the uranium but could choose to store it or turn it into low-enriched uranium and then export it for use as reactor fuel. Despite present restrictions on its enrichment program, the amount of natural uranium is significant should Iran decide to keep it in storage, considering its potential uses once some limits on Tehran's nuclear activities start to expire in less than a decade. The troubling part, if only for those who see Iran as hell bent on creating nucleaar weapons was noted by David Albright, whose Institute of Science and International Security often briefs U.S. lawmakers on Iran's nuclear program, says the shipment could be enriched to enough weapons-grade uranium for more than 10 simple nuclear bombs, "depending on the efficiency of the enrichment process and the design of the nuclear weapon." While it remains to be seen if Trump will comment on the unexpected delivery, we are certain that Israel, and especially its embattled prime minister Netanyahu, will raise a substantial fuss over the renewed possibility of a nuclear-armed neighbor. Heavy water is used to cool a type of reactor that produces more plutonium than reactors cooled by light water. Like enriched uranium, plutonium can be turned into the fissile core of a nuclear weapon * * * Meanwhile, Reuters reports that Iranian lawmakers, far from demilitarizing, approved plans on Monday to expand military spending to five percent of the budget, including developing the country's long-range missile program which U.S. President-elect Donald Trump has pledged to halt. The vote is a boost to Iran's military establishment – the regular army, the elite Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and defense ministry - which was allocated almost 2 percent of the 2015-16 budget. But it could put the Islamic Republic on a collision course with the incoming Trump administration, and fuel criticism from other Western states which say Tehran's recent ballistic missile tests are inconsistent with a U.N. resolution on Iran. The resolution, adopted last year as part of the deal to curb Iran's nuclear activities, calls on Iran to refrain from work on ballistic missiles designed to deliver nuclear weapons. Tehran says it has not carried out any work on missiles specifically designed to carry such payloads. Tasnim news agency said 173 lawmakers voted in favor of an article in Iran's five-year development plan that "requires government to increase Iran's defense capabilities as a regional power and preserve the country's national security and interests by allocating at least five percent of annual budget" to military affairs. Only 10 lawmakers voted against the plan, which includes developing long range missiles, armed drones and cyber-war capabilities. Members of Iran's revolutionary guard look at a missile launched during a war game near the city of Qom. The Obama administration says Iran's ballistic missile tests have not violated the nuclear agreement with Tehran, but Trump, who criticized the accord as "the worst deal ever negotiated", has said he would stop Iran's missile program. "Those ballistic missiles, with a range of 1,250 miles, were designed to intimidate not only Israel ... but also intended to frighten Europe and someday maybe hit even the United States," he told the American Israel Public Affairs Committee AIPAC in March. "We're not going to let that happen." * * * So one hand, we have Obama desperate to salvage his diplomatic legacy (having already seen TPP implode and Obamacare starting the repeal proess), appeasing Iran in every possible way, even if it means further antagonizing Israel; on the other we have Iran taking advantage of Obama's weakness, and accelerating the ballistic weapons program which has been banned per the same treasury that Obama wants to see continue. Finally, throw in Trump and Netanyahu in the mix, and the future for US-Iranian relations after January 20 suddenly looks rather volatile.

Image caption Razia says her pregnancy became her nightmare In a remote village in central Pakistan a teenage girl is screaming for help in unbearable labour pain. There are no trained midwives or doctors around for miles in Rahim Yar Khan District in southern Punjab. The only help at hand is the neighbourhood dai, or traditional birth attendant. She doesn't have the skills or the training to handle a complicated pregnancy. Still, she gets on with what she knows best: pushing and pulling with her hands, as if trying to rearrange the insides of the young woman. The pain becomes so severe, the woman, Razia Shamshad, loses consciousness. Her ordeal drags on for about four days, at the end of which the dai manages to pull out the remains of what would have been a baby girl. As if the trauma of losing her first child isn't enough, Razia is also left with chronic incontinence. But the dai tells her not to worry, saying "it's all going to be fine in due course". Instead, Razia's condition worsens as she starts leaking faeces and urine from her vagina. 'Worse than being blind' What she doesn't know is that her long and fruitless labour has caused obstetric fistula - preventable and treatable, but not if you live where she does. "My clothes were constantly wet and filthy below the waist. I would smell all the time. I felt helpless," she says. "Some neighbours and relatives despised me. Others made fun of me. They said I must have done something to deserve this." Image copyright Getty Images Image caption Two million women live with the condition globally, many of them not able to afford medical treatment But Razia's only fault, it would seem, was that she was born into a poor family and with a genetic sight disorder. As a visually impaired girl, in a country which prizes boys, she was never sent to school, even though she was smart enough to memorise the Koran at an early age. When she became a teenager, Razia was married to a man she did not really know. But she soon became a young widow when her husband died in a road accident. At the time, she was six months pregnant with her first baby. Living with an elderly father-in-law and with no professional antenatal care at hand, Razia's pregnancy became her nightmare. The traumatic episode left her in a condition she describes as "worse than being blind". Obstetric fistula is little known in Europe and the US where it has been virtually wiped out because of improved obstetric care. More on fistula Occurs as a result of obstructed labour causing a hole in the bladder and/or bowel Patient is constantly leaking urine and/or faeces In most cases where it occurs, the baby dies during childbirth Two million women living with the condition globally, mostly in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia Up to 100,000 new cases globally each year Condition is entirely preventable and treatable The 'cursed' women living in shame Fistula in Uganda But an estimated two million women around the world still suffer from the devastating impact of this condition. Many of them belong to the most marginalised communities in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia. Poorest affected Pakistan has one of the worst maternal mortality rates in the region and its public health care suffers from deep-rooted corruption and institutional inefficiencies. Growing income disparities mean few can afford costly private health services in urban areas, while many rural poor, especially in Sindh and Balochistan provinces, can't even access basic health services. "Obstetric fistula is a condition which affects the poorest of the poor women with limited or no access to basic health care and education," points out Dr Sajjad Siddiqui, Pakistan project manager for the global End Fistula Campaign. Image caption Dr Sajjad Siddiqui says it is the poorest of women who are most affected by fistula And because the patients are usually without a voice and out of sight, no-one cares about them, he says. In recent years, Pakistan has reported up to 5,000 new obstetric fistula patients annually. The number is based on women who sought help or somehow came in contact with Dr Siddiqui and his team at the seven free fistula treatment centres set up by the UN Population Fund. Many more go on suffering quietly in shame - for years, sometimes decades - not knowing that the condition is treatable through surgery, say experts. Thoughts of suicide That was the case with Razia who went through the pain and humiliation that comes with vesicovaginal and rectovaginal fistula. Ostracised and stigmatised, the choice before her was to die a lonely miserable death in the village, or seek help. "I thought of committing suicide, but something always prevented me," she says. "I guess I never fully gave up hope." So, one day, despite her visual impairment and incontinence, Razia - all alone - left her village and took the long train journey south to the port city of Karachi. Image copyright Getty Images Image caption Razia being treated at Koohi Goth hospital Here, she was lucky to end up somehow at the country's National Fistula Centre at Koohi Goth charity hospital. "Razia's was a particularly difficult case, given what she had been through," says Dr Shershah Syed, who has spent nearly two decades treating fistula patients all over the country. "But I was struck by her courage and resilience and took her in as a challenge." Over the next several months, Razia was cared for and offered free treatment at the hospital. And after a series of operations, she started to get her life back and reintegrate herself back into the community. Along the way, she remarried. And when her doctors made it clear to the couple that she would never be able to conceive again, she adopted a girl from her extended family. 'So happy now' But earlier this year, she once again defied the odds and surprised herself and her doctors when it turned out she was pregnant. "We couldn't believe it! It's extremely rare for a woman with her complications to conceive again. And yet she did it," says Dr Syed. This time, Razia received the antenatal care she deserved and through a caesarean section gave birth prematurely to a baby girl. "I am so happy now. This little bundle of joy has made me forget all my pain and suffering," she says. Image caption Razia with her husband, adopted daughter and newborn baby Razia now lives in Karachi with her new husband, a handyman/painter, her adopted daughter and her newborn baby. Still, she worries about thousands of other women suffering from the condition. As a fistula survivor, every now and then she volunteers at Koohi Goth Hospital to encourage other women to take charge of their lives. "Never give up hope," she tells them. However, despite individual successes, what's really worrying Pakistan's small group of fistula experts is the rise in the reported cases of iatrogenic fistula. This kind of injury is caused by the negligence of health practitioners while performing hysterectomies and caesarean sections. The victims are usually mature women being operated on by unqualified and untrained health practitioners. "This is becoming a bigger concern for us," says Dr Siddiqui. "We are now seeing nearly as many cases of iatrogenic fistula as obstetric fistula. "That's just shameful. It shows that there are plenty of doctors out there doing more harm than good and they aren't being held accountable."

Commuters urged to flood TV and radio phone-ins after transport secretary’s cancellation of rail electrification upgrades in the north A day of moaning has been declared across the north of England, with public transport users encouraged to let rip about their terrible journeys. Commuters are urged to write to their MPs and flood radio and TV phone-ins on Monday to express their frustration with the region’s poor transport provision. The event was called after the transport secretary, Chris Grayling, indicated his support for Crossrail 2, a £30bn train line across London, days after cancelling electrification projects to northern rail lines. Transport secretary's backing for Crossrail 2 sparks anger outside London Read more It was a Conservative manifesto promise to electrify the lines, with Grayling’s predecessor, Patrick McLoughlin, saying in 2015 that “the electrification programme is central to our ambitious plans to transform the rail network across the country”. Grayling argues electrification is unnecessary because new “bi-modal” trains are capable of switching between electric and diesel operation. The “moan-in” is organised by IPPR North, a thinktank, which calls for £59bn “catch-up cash” investment in northern transport to address the imbalance of government funding to trains and buses in London and the south-east compared with the rest of the country. Luke Raikes, senior research fellow at IPPR North, said: “The government still hasn’t engaged with the north seriously over this issue. Instead it has tried to defend its plans by pointing to the small amount of investment it does make, or rehashing previously announced spending. “The reality is that the government promised to fully electrify these lines. The north expects this promise to be kept.” More than 67,000 people have signed a petition demanding Grayling pledge his immediate backing for the Northern Powerhouse Rail programme, including a new 30-minute rail link between Manchester and Leeds – a “Crossrail North”. It also asks Grayling to give Transport for the North the same powers as those enjoyed by Transport for London, so that it can raise private finance towards its own transport priorities. Commuters in the north are becoming increasingly frustrated by poor rail provision, suffering slow, overcrowded services on antiquated diesel trains and paying ever higher fares for the privilege. Last week it was announced that rail fares for commuters in England and Wales would increase by 3.6% from next year. The early train down from Glasgow to Manchester airport was recently ranked the fifth most overcrowded service in the UK by the Department for Transport, with 169 passengers standing. Suffering the journey last Thursday was Emma Meen, 31, a programme manager, from Preston. “You see people stood up just all the time all the time and you just think ‘why is it so bad?” she said. “I travel to Leeds quite a lot, so when I go over to Leeds it’s a Northern [service] that is just gross. And that’s always packed as well. It goes up to about Bradford and then it is just rammed. It’s just dirty: when you fold the tables down they’ve always got stuff on them, there’s chewing gum on the seats, the seats look dirty, there’s mould around the windows. “They look dirty, so when you consider you’re paying £23 or £24 to get from Preston to Leeds, and I’m sat on a dirty train … It would change everything if the north-west and the north-east were better connected.” Chris Sutehall, 55, an operations director, was waiting for a delayed train to Manchester Piccadilly and at risk of missing her meeting. She has taken drastic measures to dodge the high prices, which have seen a walk-on return fare from Manchester to London rise to £338 during rush hour. “I lived in Spain over the winter and it’s much cheaper for me to get from Spain to London for a meeting than it is going from the north-west,” she said.

All photos by Derek Scancarelli Hostage Calm laid a final rose on the casket last night after performing their closing farewell show at Toad’s Place in New Haven, CT. Just a week earlier, vocalist Chris “Cmar” Martin traded in his jeans for Army fatigues before storming the stage in New York City, although he didn’t do push-ups to get the blood flowing like he did in Connecticut. “Dude, I’m about to go to war,” Martin said. “All I need is to drop out of a helicopter.” New Haven was the band’s true last stand. It left behind blood, sweat, bruises and the remains of thirty-dozen thorny red roses. After a career-encompassing set of stage dives and glistening eyes, just like that, Hostage Calm was over. Those were two of five farewell concerts in the Northeast, along with Boston, Philly, and Chicago. The gigs were scheduled in the wake of an untimely and unexpected breakup. In October, just 20 days after releasing their newest record, Die On Stage, Hostage Calm announced that they’d broken up and dropped off the remainder of their U.S. tour with Citizen. “It’s definitely poetry in motion,” Martin said. “It’s a very fitting end in the sense of eeriness and discomfort that goes along with the fact that we just put out a record called Die On Stage and then the band imploded. I think for us it’s the fatalistic side of punk we always celebrated, so it was only fitting that we went into the wall at 1,000 miles per hour.” Hostage Calm never told the public why they’d parted ways, and Martin declined to get into detail about it in our interview. But, regardless of the circumstances behind the band’s demise, he understood the value in playing goodbye shows. “It’s an important ritual in punk music, some shitty detached rock band might just break up and go into hibernation,” he said. “But if you’re in this community, you play your final shows and give the kids a chance to lay a rose on the casket.” Coming up, the Wallingford American Legion was the band’s rented world. Hostage Calm booked their first show in that very legion, the same space in which its walls showcased the veterans of World War II. It was symbolic for them; displaying the stark contrast between the lives they were living and the “Idealized America.” The legion was part of the Connecticut youths’ “Other America.” They’d play hardcore punk amidst the grandeur and history of the men who lived on into Golden Age. Although the guys in Hostage Calm weren’t part of The Greatest Generation, they had their own battles to fight. They were warriors for social justice, and the fans who held them close to their hearts were part of their battalion. They took on the harsh realities of their own “Other America,” a generation of children who were a product of divorce and facing an ever-narrowing economic future. The band’s breakthrough record, Please Remain Calm (2012), was what Martin once called the anthem of the disenfranchised youth. It observed a culture of young adults inundated with student debt and the improbability of making your dreams come true, much less paying rent or making love last. But before the heralded record was actualized, the members of Hostage Calm earned their stripes helping to cultivate the Connecticut punk community. Ambitious and inspired, the members of Hostage Calm were all actively involved in creating and ingesting music by the time they were early teenagers. At 13, Martin saw the Circle Jerks play for the first time. Moving forward, they would go see bands like With Honor, The Flaming Tsunamis or American Nightmare, really any sort of hardcore, punk, or ska show they could get themselves into. In those days, Connecticut had a well-established history of heavy music; Hatebreed, 100 Demons, and Death Threat, would be a few good examples. But what the guys in Hostage Calm were truly inspired by was the youth crew hardcore movement, as they grew up romanticizing the NYHC, East Bay, and DC scenes. Before Hostage Calm was born, Tim Casey, Tom Chiari, and Chris Martin were members of At All Costs. The band was the product of the 16-17 year olds’ passion; imagine hardcore with horns. The band would serve as the foundation and guts of what would later transform into Hostage Calm, but not before shaping the local music scene. The teens had never expected their next venture would travel much farther and wider than a Hungarian hall in central Connecticut. Ed Goodfriend booked the band’s final hometown show and used to play trombone in At All Costs. He remembers bassist Tim Casey playing violin on the cover of the New Haven Advocate, equipped with a Mohawk and Casualties t-shirt. It may be an age-old cliché when discussing music, but Hostage Calm genuinely and continually re-invented themselves over the course of seven years and four full-length albums. Their 2008 release, Lens, was indisputably hardcore-punk inspired and sounding. By the time Die On Stage was released in 2014, the band’s Facebook page touted it as having “60s pop melody, 70s punk energy and 80s new wave panache.” The peaks and valleys of surviving as band were often apparent, recalled Martin, discussing the process of finding a label to release their 2010 self-titled album. Just when the guys were beginning to lose hope, they sent a track over to Run For Cover Records, who signed them 45-minutes later. “Looking back, it’s crazy to think about how they didn’t all just jump ship at any of the million other turns,” Martin said. “If this were some day job, everyone would’ve said ‘Fuck this, I quit,’ years ago.” It sure as hell is a good thing they didn’t. Had the band jumped ship, they never would’ve had the chance to tour with some of guitarist Tom Chiari’s favorite bands: Rival Schools, I Am The Avalanche, and Anti-Flag. “I had to pinch myself,” Chiari said, reminiscing on partying in Amsterdam with I Am The Avalanche, whose frontman, Vinnie Caruana recently reunited (again) with The Movielife. Caruana described their latest release as their cosmic and crowning achievement. “I think it’s a shame they weren’t recognized more heavily by the masses, but a lot of the times the best bands are not the ones that become massively successful, but remain important, Hostage Calm will always be a band that people love and respect,” Caruana said. “They are never going to not be relevant in punk.” Run For Cover labelmate and Citizen guitarist Nick Hamm said that when it came to picking bands for their most recent headlining tour, the decision was obvious. He was a sophomore in high school when he first discovered Hostage Calm. He never imagined he’d be playing disc golf in Alabama with guitarist Nick Balzano, much less watching the band “put him to shame” every night. For him, their beginnings shined through to the end. “I’ve seen people take aim at them for abandoning being a hardcore band,” Hamm said. “But the message that they were screaming out was always hardcore to me.” Indiana-based songwriter Grey Gordon first saw the band at a basement show in Monsey. He sees them as an amalgamation of their influences; their invigorating approach to writing music rooted in tradition enabled them to permeate the nooks and crannies of the DIY culture. “They’re political without being preachy,” Gordon said. “They’re passionate without being corny.” More importantly than playing with or earning the praise of their heroes and cohorts, or the fact that every kid in town started copying their haircuts in a cult-like fashion, was the way they always regarded punk as a platform. Hostage Calm used their songs as a medium for spreading awareness and social change. Champions for the equality of the LGBTQ community, their efforts far exceeded their t-shirts that said “I Support Same-Sex Marriage,” or protesting venues like Nashville’s Rocketown who fired an employee for wearing the same shirt. Tracks like “Ballots/Stones” or “May Love Prevail” sent a clear and honest message, but their calls to action are the source of most of their pride. In 2011, they created an online petition to accompany a letter urging NYS senators to pass the Marriage Equality Act. In return for a signature, fans received a free download of their album. The petition received thousands of signatures practically overnight. “I remember watching the actual legislative session as it was going down, and watching the senators we had sent it to. They didn’t say they’d received hundreds of thousands of emails, they said they received thousands,” said Martin. “And those thousands were from the international punk community.” For the guys looking back, the band’s totality holds tremendous value. In the future, Chiari wants the band to be remembered by being rediscovered. “I think that’s a hallmark of a legacy band, they continue to gain fans after they finish being one,” he said. For Martin, the band’s completion has certainly been emotionally charged. All the years of stage diving and sweat led to the last five shows. For Hostage Calm, the goal was never to imitate The Smiths or The Clash, but to achieve the greatness and timelessness those heroes were able to. I asked Martin to describe the journey of Hostage Calm. “I think it’s one long struggle to articulate and realize the enormity of your own life,” he said, projecting the reassured vulnerability he’d become so proud of. For him, songwriting was the social responsibility of dredging up personal pain, and using his own epiphanies to write songs that speak to a generation. “It was about trying to figure out what our place was in this world and realizing a broader vision of social change, the kind which we came in contact when we were first in punk.” I asked Martin what advice he would have for aspiring young punks. “Double-down on who you are. I believe that people really appreciate that depth of introspection, self-understanding and honesty,” he said, choosing his next words carefully. “I would say to pursue that which documents the time you live in, and is great within your own context, but do what is also timeless. Pursue timelessness.” In Martin’s own words, c’est la vie. Die on stage. Derek Scancarelli is scattering ashes on Twitter.

Remote sensing – Millennial Matriarchs Skip to content Millennial Matriarchs Musings on Life and Times: Views, Reviews, Previews, Interviews..and Advice Menu Home Contact About the Millennial Matriarchs Why this blog? Tag: Remote sensing World Meteorology Day: A Tribute to the Father of Indian Meteorology, Dr. P.R Pisharoty March 23, 2018 March 26, 2018 ~ millennialmatriarchs ~ 2 Comments He is the one of whom Sir C.V. Raman said: ‘I would include Mr. Pisharoty in a short-list of the ablest men I have ever had working with. His personal and intellectual qualities are such as to enable him successfully to undertake the highest type of scientific and administrative work.’ Dr. Pisharoty was not just the father of Indian Meteorology, he was a world authority as well. He pushed for the use of Numerical Weather Prediction in India and if today, we have the capacity to do fairly good short, medium and long term weather forecasts, it can be traced back to the foundations he laid. Dr. Pisharoty was called the ‘Rain Man’ of india—it is he who fully understood the nature of the Indian Monsoon, and it is this understanding which should underpin our thinking on water conservation and management. He pointed out that rains in India are very different in nature to rains anywhere else. India gets 400 million hectare meters of rain annually, with a landmass of 329 million hectares—enough to submerge our land under 1.29 meters of water per year if spread evenly. But there are areas is India with rainfall as low as 200 mm per year and areas with rainfall as high as 11,400 mm per year. Moreover, the rain in India, unlike in Europe, falls within a very short time. There are parts of India where the entire quota of annual rainfall is received in just 100 hours. Hence he pointed out, the critical need for understanding the local patterns, and for proper planning for water management. With such planning and husbanding he maintained, even the lowest rainfall area of the country could have enough drinking water throughout the year. He was given the responsibility of exploring the use of remote sensing for India, and when he succeeded in using remote sensing to detect coconut root wilt disease in the late 1960s, the foundation for remote sensing was laid in the country. We, the Millennial Matriarchs, had the privilege of being mentored by Dr. Pisharoty, as a member of the Governing Council of our organization. He must have been over 75 years old when we first met him (he went to office every day till the age of about 85!). We used to be sent to this giant for getting ‘scientific validation’ of the educational material we developed. The enthusiasm he had for each and every project, the wisdom he imparted ever so gently, the Sanskrit slokas he would quote to bring out a point, the patience with which he put up with rooky, cocky youngsters—the memory of it still gives me goose bumps. Dr. Pisharoty was also a member of all our promotion review committees. The twinkle in his eyes would set us at ease and put life in perspective. I think we were too young and foolish to appreciate how privileged we were. My deepest regret: Typical of the old school, he wrote and wrote—letters, articles, notes, comments. He once wrote me a note with an alternative interpretation of my name ‘Meenalochani’ in the Dikshiter composition ‘Meenakshi Me Mudem’. In my various house-moves, I have misplaced it. And two quotes from Dr. Pisharoty, which I will think on today : ‘The more you write, the better will be your handwriting; and the more you think, the sharper will be your intellect.’ ‘Science is our profession as well as our life’s hobby.

Programming languages are our interface to the myriad of computer systems we interact with on a daily basis. They allow us to craft complex sequences of operations at increasing high levels of abstraction. How are these languages designed? How are they implemented? How do we evaluate them? *Update* Farewell: We would like to thank all the speakers and students for attending the first ever Programming Language Implementation Summer School. This event would not have been possible without the generosity of each speaker, as well as the enthusiasm shown by the students. We would like to thank you all for making PLISS 2017 such a special and successful event. We hope PLISS 2017 has inspired you, and we wish you all a successful future. Some amazing pictures of Bertinoro and Ravenna, courtesy of Steve Blackburn: The First International Programming Language Implementation Summer School (PLISS) will be held in Bertinoro, Italy from May 20 to 27, 2017. The Summer School's goal is to prepare early graduate students and advanced undergraduates for research in the field. This will be done through a combination of lectures on language implementation techniques and short talks exploring the state of the art in programming language research and practice. Lectures cover current research and future trends in programming language design and implementation, including: Writing Just-in-time Compilers with LLVM Performance Evaluation and Benchmarking Designing a Commercial Actor Language High-Performance Fully Concurrent Garbage Collection Compiling Dynamic Languages Language-support for Distributed Datastores Testing Programming Language Implementations Abstract Interpretation and Static Analysis Travel grants and fellowships are available to support students interested in attending PLISS. The organizers gratefully acknowledge the support of our sponsors. The instructors are accomplished researchers and practitioners with extensive experience designing and engineering successful languages and tools.

Lockheed Martin, one of the world’s largest military contractors, has developed a process that company officials say significantly reduces the amount of energy needed to desalinate water , an innovation that could help communities worldwide tackle the growing threat of water scarcity. According to the company, the new process uses ultra-thin carbon membranes with holes large enough to allow water to pass through, but small enough to block the salt molecules in seawater, Reuters reports. Because the membranes have holes as thin as a single atom, the process would require far less energy than existing desalination technologies, which rely on reverse osmosis, the company says. “It’s 500 times thinner than the best filter on the market today and a thousand times stronger,” said John Stetson, a Lockheed Martin engineer. “The energy that’s required and the pressure that’s required to filter salt is approximately 100 times less.” A 2011 study found that desalination technology could be the cheapest approach to meeting the planet’s growing water needs.

I was five years old the first time I fired a gun, and it scared me so bad I pissed my pants. It happened at a dusty construction camp not far from the Mexican border town of Matamoros, where my father, a civil engineer, and his crew were building a road. The gun belonged to my father, who wanted to introduce me to shooting. It was a huge, long-barreled revolver of a sort I’d much later learn was a top-break, a .45 caliber, as my father would recall. He’d received it as a gift on his fifteenth birthday from his tío Julio, a military officer, and it was an old model even then. It was too big for me to shoot without help, and he knelt at my back with his arms around me, his hands gripping my own over the gun butt and trigger guard, and tried to help me line up the front sight with the target, a large green bottle propped against a mound of dirt. It seemed to be at a great distance, but it was no more than ten feet away. Some of the workmen were looking on from a tractor and shouting encouragement, but they only made me more nervous. My father told me to squeeze the trigger, not jerk it. And pow. I flinched at the blast and recoil, and if he hadn’t been supporting the gun, I would have dropped it. I missed the bottle. And I wet myself. Years afterward, whenever the story came up, my father always insisted I’d spotted my pants only a little, and he wouldn’t have known if I hadn’t pointed it out. At the time, however, I was so ashamed that I couldn’t bring myself to look over at the men on the tractor. It took a lot of coaxing to get me to try again. Then he once more braced my grip in his own and helped me to sight on the bottle and . . . pow. It burst into shards and the onlookers cheered. I laughed and looked up at my father’s grin. He would later say he’d never forgotten the sheer thrill on my face. Thus did my acquaintance with firearms begin with a mixture of fear and euphoria. In my elementary school years, my family lived in Brownsville, on Zaragosa Street. Our neighbors were Anglos and Mexicans in roughly equal numbers. Every family had handguns, and “house gun” and “car gun” were routine distinctions. The neighborhood abounded with gun stories. My tío Rafael loved to tell of the time he lost the key to his clothes trunk and decided to shoot the lock off, as he had seen done in the movies. To guard against ricochet, he lugged the trunk outside and set it on open ground. It took four shots before he hit the lock just right to break it open, but one of the bullets pierced the trunk, and he was dismayed to find that it had passed through the jacket of his white linen suit, his favorite. He wore it to a dance that night anyway, and so many girls were curious about the bullet holes in his breast pocket and his back, and so impressed by the lies he told of how they’d come to be there, that he chose never to get them mended. There was a story of a young married couple on the block who at times fought so loudly that neighbors had to shut their windows against the clamor. The man was a lout given to beating his wife and to terrifying her with his handgun. One night, during yet another thrashing, she ran to the bedroom, retrieved the gun, and shot him dead. She was acquitted on grounds of self-defense, and the neighborhood regarded the incident as simple proof of the adage that Colonel Colt, not God nor the laws of the land, was the foremost agent of human equality. The most enduring of Zaragosa Street’s gun stories was about a Mexican neighbor of many years earlier who had hosted a party at his house and—to the horror of his wife and guests—thought to amuse everyone by producing his six-shooter and playing Russian roulette at the dining table. They all swore he was sober and quite calm, smiling while he removed all the bullets from the gun but one. His frantic wife phoned the police, and the guests pleaded with him to desist, but no one tried to stop him for fear of getting shot. On the first try, he clicked on an empty chamber. He laughed and then horrified everyone all the more by putting a second bullet in the gun. He again spun the cylinder, again smiled, again put the muzzle to his temple. Click. Then he jovially inserted a third round. The way the story went, the gun held five bullets and was cocked and at his head when a cop came through the door and yelled for him to put it down. He winked and pulled the trigger. Click. He was away for several weeks at a psychiatric clinic in Houston, and when he returned he apologized to everyone for his behavior. A few weeks later, in the middle of a drunken row with his wife, he retrieved the fully loaded revolver, spun the cylinder, raised the gun to his head and blam. That episode gave rise to the Zaragosa Street opinion that, in addition to Russian roulette, there were two other kinds—Mexican roulette, in which you took out one to four bullets, depending on how macho or mindless you were, and Drunk Mexican roulette, in which you didn’t take out any. Some preferred to call it Drunk Tex-Mex roulette and had their own stories to support the name. Dark humor informed many of the gun tales of my Texas boyhood, but even the funniest of them never failed to remind me of a gun’s lethality. My familiarity with guns was greatly expanded when I was a young soldier stationed at a small, remote camp near the Korean Demilitarized Zone. Because nobody else wanted the job, I became the company armorer, though I was hardly qualified. I lived alone in the arms room, a Quonset hut at the far end of the camp, and I passed my days studying gun manuals and acquainting myself with the workings of the different firearms. Besides the company’s general-issue M14 rifles, the arms room contained a number of weapons of World War II vintage, and one of the job’s duties was test-firing them at the battalion range. Garand M1 rifles, M1 carbines, the M3 submachine gun—the fabled “grease gun,” whose power thrilled me to the bone—I had the pleasure of shooting them all. But no gun caught my fancy as much as the .45 semiautomatic pistol, which I’d read about in countless novels and seen in many a movie. It was said a .45 could knock you down if it hit you in the little finger. I pored over the gun’s manual and was soon able to fieldstrip and reassemble the weapon faster than anyone in the outfit. Even the company’s oldest vets were impressed by my adeptness. The first time I test-fired one at the range, I yelled in elation, and the range master laughed and said, “Feels like God’s own fist, don’t it?” In basic training, I had earned a rifleman’s Sharpshooter badge, but in Korea I scored Expert with the .45 and felt quite special for it. My shooting proficiency with the gun reinforced my conviction of being its master in every way. One late night during a fierce thunderstorm, and after a few beers at the enlisted men’s club, I slogged back to the arms room and found a .45 lying on the check-in counter of the small foyer, which featured waist-high concrete walls on either side. A sergeant who’d been on gate duty had come to return the gun, not found me in, and simply left it. Cursing his negligence, I picked up the pistol with such arrant and beery incaution that I inadvertently triggered a round. The gun blast was gargantuan in the confines of the metal hut—and I heard the split-second wap-wap-wap of the ricochets between the foyer walls flanking me. I gingerly set the safety lever, laid the gun on the counter, and just stood there awhile with my heart trying to come out of my mouth. I was sure the whole camp had heard the shot and a mob would come charging in at any second to find out what happened. Nobody came. The thunderstorm obviously muted the report. The ricochets had pocked the concrete blocks, and I found the bullet mashed into the junction of the foyer wall and the floor. I thought of going to the sergeant and berating him for having left the gun there with the safety off and a round in the chamber, but I didn’t. Because then I would’ve had to confess to the even more severe stupidity by which I’d almost shot myself. The sergeant in question was from San Angelo and had grown up with guns. He’d been in the infantry more than twenty years and had seen combat in the Korean War. He had handled every variety of firearm. And I was a recognized expert with the .45 pistol. Yet both of us were proof that no degree of familiarity with a gun is ample warrant against careless error and horrible accident. For many years afterward, I kept the misshapen bullet as a reminder of that grim truth. I wasn’t really aware of the prevalence and casual acceptance of firearms in Texas until after we moved to Florida, where most of the people I came to know, even though chiefly Southern in their traditions at that time, were less personally familiar with guns and more uneasy about them than the Texans I knew. This regional difference was made clear to me during my sophomore year of college, when my cousin Juanito visited us from Houston. He was stopped by a traffic cop for a broken taillight and got mouthy, so the cop searched the car, found a .38 revolver under the seat, and charged him with carrying a concealed weapon. Juanito was represented in court by our family lawyer, John Dooley, a die-hard Texan we’d known since our Brownsville days. John was from Harlingen, and I never knew why he relocated to Miami, but the geographical remove had not lessened his passionate love of Texas. “There are two kinds of people in the world,” he liked to say. “Texans—and all those poor bastards who aren’t.” I went with them to court, where we lucked out with a sympathetic judge who appreciated John’s presentation of Juanito as a dean’s list University of Houston student who had never before been in trouble with the law, who would never have stored the gun under the seat had he been familiar with local ordinances, and who had written the arresting officer a sincere letter of apology for his inappropriate attitude. She sentenced Juanito to sixty days and suspended the sentence. John thanked the judge for her understanding but felt compelled to add, “After all, Your Honor, we’re from Texas, and in Texas everybody carries a gun.” The judge stiffened and said she very much doubted all Texans carried guns, and that in any case we weren’t in Texas now, and it would behoove the lot of us to henceforth bear that in mind. John bridled, and for a moment it seemed he was going to say something imprudent. But he checked himself and said, “Of course, Your Honor. We certainly will.” As we exited the courthouse, John mimicked her in a low mutter: “ ‘You’re not in Texas now.’ ” Then he looked at me and Juanito and said, “She’s telling me?” Some years ago, I taught a young woman how to shoot. She had professed a fear of guns but was determined to know what it was like to fire one, so I took her to a makeshift range at a friend’s farm. I demonstrated the workings of an unloaded .32 pistol, emphasized all the safety procedures, and then handed her the gun and had her repeat the operations. I loaded it, we put on our earmuffs, and she watched me shoot cans off a fence rail. She shrank at the first shots but quickly got used to the reports, and when I handed her the gun, her mien was resolute. She reloaded it as I’d shown her, and I positioned myself close at her back as she aimed with both hands. She jerked the trigger, flinched at the recoil, and swore at having missed. “Squeeze,” I reminded her. She did, and missed again but didn’t flinch. Her next shot sent a can flying, and she shouted, “Yes!” She whanged a can off the fence with each of the remaining rounds and whooped in triumph. I told her she was a natural-born deadeye. For the next hour she couldn’t stop grinning or talking about how grand it felt. How powerful. “But, you know,” she said, suddenly a tad sheepish, “just thinking about it, well, it still spooks me a little.” I said I was glad to hear it and hoped it always would. The feel of a loaded gun in your hand is a singular sensation, and shooting one is an intense physical experience. Even if you never shoot at anything except paper targets at a range, you can’t help but be aware of the weapon’s profound power and fundamental purpose—which is, of course, to kill. Which is, of course, what you might do with it should you come under deadly attack. If there’s a “natural right” at all, it’s the right of self-defense, and a handgun is particularly well suited to the purpose. It is difficult to argue with the cliché that it’s better to have a gun and not need it than to need one and not have it. I own but one handgun today, a 9 mm Browning semiautomatic. Periodically, I remove it from its case and check its action, fieldstrip it, clean it, oil it, reassemble it, and wipe it down. I sometimes do this even though I haven’t fired the weapon since the last cleaning. I do it because I enjoy the process and because I like the feel of the gun, its heft, its smooth blue finish, its checkered grips. Like many firearms, it is both a marvel of fine engineering and, in some ways, a remarkable work of art. Yet there are very few other implements or works of art that so widely and intensely evoke such awe, in every sense of the word—reverence, respect, wonder, and dread—as a gun. Which is why, even as I admire its craftsmanship and beauty and perfection of purpose, a gun can still scare the piss out of me.

NEW YORK — The next big question on the federal debt limit could be whether to start selling the government’s holdings of gold at Fort Knox — and at least one presidential contender, Ron Paul, has told The New York Sun he thinks it would be a good move. The question has been ricocheting around the policy circles today. An analyst at the Heritage Foundation, Ron Utt, told the Washington Post that the gold holdings of the government are “just sort of sitting there.” He added: “Given the high price it is now, and the tremendous debt problem we now have, by all means, sell at the peak.” His comment came in the wake of not only the government having reached the statutory debt limit of $14.29 trillion but also the release of a report by the Heritage Foundation of a report on asset sales. The report outlined how a “partial sales of federal properties, real estate, mineral rights, the electromagnetic spectrum, and energy-generation facilities” might garner the federal treasury $260 billion over the course of the next 15 years. The report did not mention the possibility of selling the government’s holdings of bullion, though the 261.5 million ounces of gold the Treasury Department lists in its reserve position would, at a recent price of $1,492 an ounce, would theoretically fetch $390.2 billion. The Wall Street Journal reported Monday that a group of Republican congressmen supports the idea of selling gold. Officials of the Obama administration have taken notice — and disagree. The assistant Treasury secretary for financial markets, Mary Miller, wrote in a posting on the Treasury Department’s Website May 6 that “fire sale” of the government’s financial assets, including gold, would not be a “viable option.” She urged instead a raising of the debt limit. An unnamed senior administration official was quoted by the Washington Post as saying, “Selling off the gold is just one level of crazy away from selling Mount Rushmore.” The Wall Street Journal, in its dispatch Monday, reported that Treasury “could be forced to rethink” their opposition if the budget talks fail. A study of gold reserve sales in the late 1990s noted that seven nations — Australia, Austria, Belgium, the Netherlands, Portugal, and Sweden — had then recently sold off substantial portions of their gold reserves. The sales, which amounted to 48% of those reserves, presaged a 26% devaluation in their nation’s respective currencies. Between 1999 and 2002, in 17 separate auctions, Britain sold off half of its gold reserve, netting $3.5 billion. What Britain sold is now worth $10.5 billion. In September 2009 the International Monetary Fund authorized sales from its gold reserves. At the conclusion of its sales, the IMF had disposed of 403.3 tons of gold or 13% of reserves. Over half was purchased by the central banks of India, Sri Lanka, Mauritius, and Bangladesh. In early 2011, Communist China announced plans to increase its gold reserves from to 10,000 tons by decade’s end from the 1,200 tons it currently holds. Mexico has acquired 93.3 tons of gold this year, while Thailand added 9.3 tons to its national reserves this March. Russia added 22.5 tons in January and February. In August 2010, a leading figure in the monetary debate in Congress, Ron Paul, a Republican of Texas, called for an audit of the federal government’s gold reserves. “If there was no question, you’d think they would be very anxious to prove to us that the gold is there. . . . ,” Dr. Paul then said, “In the early 1980s when I was on the gold commission, I asked them to recommend to the Congress that they audit the gold reserves – we had 17 members of the commission and 15 voted not to the audit. I think there was only one decent audit done 50 years ago.” “If we ever get around to deciding we should use gold in relationship to our currency we ought to know how much is there,” Dr. Paul added, “Our Federal Reserve admits to nothing and they should prove all the gold is there. There is a reason to be suspicious and even if you are not suspicious why wouldn’t you have an audit?” In March 2008 the Times of London quoted a spokesman of the American treasury as saying that American gold holdings “are audited every year by the Department of Treasury's Office of Inspector General. He confirmed that although independent auditors oversee the process they are not given access to the Fort Knox vault.” Dr. Paul told the Sun today that he reckoned the sale of gold reserves would be “a good and moral decision. An individual would have to do the same.” The sentiment is echoed by another big name in the debate on monetary reform, Edwin Vieira Jr., who told the Sun he has little hope of the government moving to sound money and would prefer that it coin its gold holdings in pieces marked with their weight and use them to pay off debts, particularly those owed to individuals, who might be owed, say, tax refunds. Mr. Vieira is a proponent of what he calls the “absolute separation between currency and debt.” He considers specified weights of gold and silver as the only constitutional currency. “Redeemable currency,” he says, “is an oxymoron.” And given that America is in an era of fiat money with no plans on the government’s part to mount a reform, he says of the government: “They don’t need the gold. They’ve just been sitting on it since Roosevelt stole it.” However, one of the most famous advocates of the gold standard, Lewis Lehrman, opposes the sale of the gold holdings of the American government — or any part of them. “Under no circumstances should the United States consider selling a single ounce of gold,” Mr. Lehrman, who runs the internet project TheGoldStandardNow.org, told the Sun. “On the contrary, depending upon the facts and circumstances and the level of prices, the United States might be a gradual buyer.” Mr. Lehrman, who had served in the early 1980s with Dr. Paul as a member of the United States Gold Commission, had just been this afternoon interviewed by Diane Rehm of National Public Radio, on which he called for American leadership in restoring a gold standard. He did not suggest that it could be done immediately, but he argued that this is the time to start, saying: “We have all the grounding and the basis for the United States taking the lead in establishing the convertibility of the dollar today.” ___ This article has been corrected to to reflect the most recent Treasury Department listing of America's gold reserves.

So I wrote my first book. It is a great feeling to find your book available on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/OpenShift-Cookbook-Shekhar-Gulati/dp/1783981202/. I have read many motivational books or quotes that suggest everyone should write at least one book in their lifetime even if no one reads it. I hope people will find my book useful and learn from it. This blog is not about my book but it is about the lessons I learnt while writing the book. Limit book scope: As a first time writer it is very tempting to include a lot of related topics in the book outline. I made this mistake in my book outline but as I started writing the book it became clear that I should drop few topics to write a cohesive book. Pay a lot of attention to the book outline and don’t try to put everything in the book. For example, my book is about OpenShift, a platform as a service that supports Java, Python, Node, Ruby, PHP, and Perl runtimes. In my book outline, I proposed to include everything except Perl and Ruby. After writing few chapters it became clear that we can’t include everything in one book as it would lead to a book that covers lot of topics but none of the topic would be covered in entirety. Keep in mind book outline will change so always try to keep publisher updated on the same. Your Estimates will be wrong: The book started with the initial estimate of 250 pages and 6 months writing time. We ended with 430 pages and it took more than 10 months to finish. I suggest you take book writing as another software development project. Like most software development projects, book estimates can also be wrong. The better way to write a book is by taking an iterative approach where you re-estimate after writing each chapter. Consider book writing as an Agile software development project rather than a waterfall project. Plan your book: I suggest if you wish to write a book on a topic then you should first write a blog series on that topic. I have written close to 70 blogs on OpenShift and that helped me a lot. This not only help in content creation but also gives you an audience that would like to read your book. Make sure to tell the publisher in advance that you would use your blogs. Managing your time: Writing is a very tedious and time consuming task. Writing a technology book involves various tasks like writing book text, creating sample applications, learning new changes introduced in the topic etc.There would be days when you will be productive and write a lot of content and there will be days when you will not be able to contribute much. Be prepared for lean patches as book writing can tire you more quickly than writing code. Initially I used to write book only on weekends but that didn’t worked for me as my writing flow suffered during the week. I tried writing on weekdays after office hours but that too very quickly became tiring. It is very difficult to write a book with office work. Try to plan few weeks holiday to work on the book. I took a couple of weeks off and only worked on the book. This really helped me finish book and maintain my writing flow. Read books: As a first time writer there will be times when you will be unsure about a topic or how to correctly convey it to the readers. Reading books can help you learn some tricks or improve your writing style that will help you convey your point better to the readers. Try to steal ideas from good books and apply to your book. Become comfortable with the book format: I wrote a cookbook that required me to use a predefined template. This sometimes restricts you and slow you down. Keep all book artifacts in a version control system: I used a private Github repository to store all my book artifacts including content, images, invoices, source code etc.This not only helps as backup and version control system but also helps to analyze your writing habits. For example, the Github repository contribution graph shown below clearly show my writing flow throughout book writing period. I also used a separate public Github organization https://github.com/OpenShift-Cookbook for the web applications I developed in the book. This helped me keep all book related application source separate from my own Github account. Plan for software updates: The biggest problem in writing technology books is that technology changes/deprecates very rapidly. There could be a significant change in the software library that would impact your book quality and correctness. Hope you find these useful when you write your first book.

Rotterdam is one of the must sees of 2014, The New York Times and the Rough Guide say. BBC correspondent Anna Holligan visited the city for NRC and she totally agrees. Go see Rotterdam. Door Anna Holligan There were cries of confusion and consternation among some of my Dutch friends when the New York Times and Rough Guide recognised Rotterdam as one of the world’s ‘must see’ destinations for 2014. How could these respected publications rank Rotterdam above more traditionally celebrated cities such as Leiden or Amsterdam? A couple of cynical bloggers suggested the poll rating was a PR stunt; featuring less familiar locations purely to generate ‘clicks’ and ‘shares’. But to dismiss Rotterdam would be to miss out on one of the most vibrant, culturally diverse and constantly evolving metropolises in the low lands. ‘The most modern skyline in the country’ As a foreign correspondent stationed in The Hague, a city that celebrates order and convention, chaotic Rotterdam is a revelation. Perhaps because it feels like familiar territory. I moved to The Hague from Hackney in East London. The area is home to the infamous ‘murder mile’ notorious for gang violence. Today Hackney is experiencing a renaissance – much like Rotterdam. Fashion studios are springing up inside previously forgotten premises, young bespectacled professionals with beards and bikes hang around pop-up shops, dreadlocked kids with mics entertain intrigued Sunday shoppers. Foto ANP/Sash Alexander Rotterdam has the shabby chic streets reminiscent of Berlin’s Kreuzberg district. The same graffiitied cafes, artists occupying abandoned dock buildings and unpredictable, dynamic atmosphere. Parks might not be as world renowned as Vondel but this means you can find a place to sit in Summer and cycle without dodging tourists in Autumn. As an infrequent visitor in all of these recently rediscovered spaces you are confronted by the unexpected or unconventional. As the New York Times notes, ‘Post-World War II reconstruction has changed the face of one of Europe’s largest ports, where striking, cubed architecture gives shape to the most modern skyline in the country.’ Less pretence and pressure In some areas it looks as though ten architects were given simultaneous planning permission and all began building with little regard for continuity. But the fact this kind of unconventional construction can coexist is part of the charm. And offers a metaphorical insight into the cultural composition of the Netherlands second city. The relatively large Antillian, Surinam and Moroccan population is reflected in the shops and restaurants scattered around the city. There is an indulgence in diversity here that, in my experience doesn’t exist to the same extent anywhere else in the country. Rotterdam is considered by some to be a poor relation. It does not attempt to compete with the allure of Amsterdam, or try to tempt tourists away from the pretty cobbled streets of Leiden. Rotterdamers seem happy to let Haarlem steal the historians’ spotlight. Perhaps partly because of this relaxed attitude, it feels as though there is less pretence or pressure to conform inside this ever-changing cityscape. Foto ANP/Sash Alexander In selecting Rotterdam above the more predictable favourites, the NYT and Rough Guide broke convention in terms of what we should be celebrating. Of course Rotterdam has the traditional tourist attractions and museums. With the Rijksmuseum and recently renovated Mauritshaus offering strong competition for the culturally driven day-trippers, Rotterdam biggest tourism draws lie outside. ‘Cube houses’ When you drive over the spectacular Erasmus Bridge or ‘De Swan’, the sun’s rays shimmering between the asymmetric buildings, the scale and originality is awe-inspiring and surely one of Rotterdam’s most distinctive sights. And the modern developments are still in the making. Look at the massive new Rem Koolhaas-building on the other side: De Rotterdam. Or the new Markhal, the basilica-like indoor market/apartment building/piece of art, designed by MVRDV’s Winy Maas. Foto Robin Utrecht Architecture does not come much more unconventional than Piet Blom’s ‘cube houses’. They are the type of structures you might expect to find in an architectural design exhibition. In Rotterdam they are residential homes, balancing almost haphazardly across the road. Some of them have been bought out by a hostel chain; offering the budget conscious traveller a chance to spend a night inside one Rotterdam’s most photographed structures. These cube houses are symbolic of a city that does not show off about what it has to offer, it and lets visitors decide which features deserve their attention. Rugged reputation My favourite place to stay is the New York Hotel. Rooms feature up-cycled furniture; battered chests become tables, dislocated lift doors separate the bedroom from the harlequin styled designs in the bathroom. The whole building is a tribute to Rotterdam’s glorious sea-faring past. And the views across the Mass are worth waking up for. One sight stands above the rest. The Euromast tower opened in 1960. At 185 meters tall, it’s the Netherlands highest building open to the public. Take the lift to the bar for a birds-eye view. On our last visit, my boyfriend (now husband) and I spent hours looking out over the glistening cityscape. Rotterdam viewed from this height inspires and offers a new perspective on the world and your place in it. With it’s rugged reputation and unconventional character, Rotterdam appeals to the rebellious romantic. One of the most rewarding tourism experiences is taking the road less travelled. This may explain why the travel guides chose Rotterdam as their Dutch city of 2014. But don’t take my word for it. Go and (re) discover for yourself what makes Rotterdam so remarkable.

Keeping Kerala elections in the hindsight, Kerala Church appeals for Christian Muslim unity against Hindu unification The spokesperson of kerala catholic church has appealed for a Christian, Muslim, communist unity and deject Hindu unity in Kerala. Sree Narayana Dharma Paripalana Yogam (SNDP) was constituted about a century ago to reform the Ezhava Hindu community. Now, after 60 years of neglect under various secular governments, Hindus of various denominations in Kerala are trying to come together on a common platform under the leadership of SNDP General How Kerala church perceives the attempts of Hindu unification? Secretary Vellapally Natesan, The ‘Samatva Munnetta Yatra’ (March for Equality) led by Natesan started onNovember 23 from Madhur in Kasargod district, Kerala and concluded on December 5th in Thiruvananthapuram. Interestingly, on 4th December, a Malayalam daily (which claims to be independent but is owned by a Christian family) published an article by Father Paul Thelakat, Spokesperson of the influential Syro Malabar Church under the head “This isn’t democratic language of equality” Here’s the article Article in Malayalam An almost literal translation of the article is as follows. “Samatha Yatra led by Vellapally Natesan is moving through Kerala. Natesan is someone who keenly imitates the structure of the Church. I am happy that it is helpful for SNDP organisation. But maybe due to the peculiarities of our consumerist culture, he is in the grip of intense hatred. And he exhibits hatred towards church overtly and covertly. He says that the aim of his ‘Samathwa Yatra’ is to unify Hindus. But I think he has embarked on the unification yatra without knowing the essence of Hindu civilisation. Because Hindu unity is not Hinduism. There is no dream or vision of unity in Hinduism. Hindutvavadis say so (put forth the idea of unity) for political power. Because, there is nothing about unity or brotherhood in the origins of that civilisation. Brothers will unite even if their father is not good, because they are born of the same father. There is nothing that makes unity possible in Hinduism. They don’t believe in a common father. Even the Gods are different. Equality and fraternity require a common heritage. There is a common heritage and one God behind French revolutionary ideals like equality, fraternity, and liberty. Islam too has these. But there is no unifying concept in Hinduism. There is hierarchical discrimination even in the birth from Brahma. The ideals which Vellappally exhort are borrowed from neighbours. Uniting inherently divided people reminds of an old story repeating– story of the fox which got angry at the lamb which muddied the water. Anger is the craving to kill and eat. Nairs didn’t consider Ezhavas as equals; denied them entry into temples. So they built Ezhava temples which in turn denied entry to Paraya and Pulayas. Now Vellappally conducts Samathwa yatra as if Christians and Muslims are at fault for this. The question may arise; are Ezhavas Hindus? E Madhavan in his (book) ‘Swathanthrya Samudayam’ asserts that Ezhavas are Buddhists who came from Sri Lanka. It is clear from Sri Narayana Guru’s and Kumaran Asan’s writings too. In Kerala, Syrian Christians also have Buddhist ancestry. Their terminologies like ‘Palli, Appan, Muthappan’ and women’s traditional attire like `Mundu’ and `Chatta’ indicates the Buddhist influence. Buddhist heritage is of the sangha (community) and brotherhood. It is Christians and Muslims, whom Vellappaly is ousting from unity. Under Brahminical rule, land was Brahma swam (property of brahmins) and Deva swam (property of gods). Ezhavas, Christians and Muslims were living solely out of agriculture leasing the land under the systems of `Pattam’, `kanam’, and `Vaaram’. Government jobs and land belonged to aristocracy…. It was E M S Namboothirippadu’s land reforms which secured these three communities their own agricultural land. The basis for this revolution in Kerala was foreign. During independence movement, people like Nehru discovered India in Renaissance humanism, a western concept. Moreover, the brotherhood created by the one god and the one parents of Judeo-Christian-Islamic religious tradition based on the faith of Abraham. Ezhava renaissance too is related to Communism which is also part of the same stream. Ezhava community had once considered joining the Church. Later many of them came under the umbrella of communism. This renaissance was not from any Hindu value. If Father Chavara and Mother Theresa brought about miracles in Indian society, it is the outcome of Christian humanism. If It is not from Hindutwa’s Gharwapasi, but because (poet) Changampuzha and (writer) Thakazhi imbibed the humanitarian ideals of communism that Malayapulayan got the rights of the banana he cultivated and son of a scavenger was recognised as a human too. In independent India, Ezhavas, Christians, and Muslim grew under the progressive outlook. Christian educational institutions were born. `Pallikkodam’s (schools) that were built alongside churches founded by Father Chavara were not meant to teach only Christians. Hindus and Muslims also developed by learning from those schools. Muslims became more interested in education only now. Recently, Christians, especially the Catholic Church took interest in job-oriented higher education institutions. Self-financing institutions was a key step forward in Kerala’s development. Church started self-financing institutes not to flaunt money, but to fulfil a social need. Hence, the allegation that Church was doing business and used minority rights to make money are nothing but borne out of severe hatred. When Church stepped into this field, all those temples which house tonnes of gold and riches were sitting idle like the ghost guarding the gold. Money is not enough, one also needs a vision which can do well to people. Ezhavas are not poor in Kerala’s consumer market. One needs to learn to see what lies beneath them too. There are people weaker than Ezhavas and this includes some Christians too. Poverty and weakness have no religion. The focus should be on development of all, especially the weaker sections. This is a matter of justice. We have to go forward, not backwards. Equality is an ideal yet to achieve. The objective should be this equality, but for that the way out is not to travel back to ‘chaturvarnya’. The language of Hindu unity isn’t that of equality or democracy. There is no assurance that the government they will bring about will be democratic. Will equality be ushered in by drowning Christians and Muslims in the Arabian Sea? Democracy is a prayer and a blessing; democracy which is the outcome of the combined force of peoples freedom and rationalism. That can be achieved only when people like Vellappally speak the language of democracy. It is not the order of hierarchy of nature. It is the lifestyle of human qualities like common sense, civilised discourse and mutual respect. It pains me to write that Vellapally’s language is not of this democratic culture. Let the language be of equality and fraternity. As a Christian, I never learn to define brotherhood based on religion and caste, which is why I write this note in fellowship. – Nishant Das ( Follow me on Facebook) Like this: Like Loading...

For the past thirty plus years, noted author and pseudo-historian Zechariah Sitchin has been putting his balls to the fire, so to speak. The ninety year old Sitchin has spent the past three decades figuratively motherfucking conventional historians, scientists, and academics the world over by alleging that "ancient Astronauts" seeded the human race. In a recent interview with Cosmic Logic, Zechariah claims he is willing to bet his entire career's work on the DNA testing of a 4500 year old mummy. For those of you not familiar with Sitchin's theory- a brief recap: Zechariah Sitchin believes that the Human race was "created", through genetic manipulation, by the Annunaki- a super advanced alien race from the Planet Nibiru, which enters into earth's vicinity once every 3500 years. Through the translation of Sumerian tablets (Which Sitchin is one of the very few capable of doing so), Zechariah claims to have learned the "true history" of Man. He believes that we started as a slave race- genetically constructed by the Annunaki to aid them in their efforts to mine our planet for gold and other valuable minerals but that we eventually rose against the harsh Alien taskmasters. This revolution (as well as their home world just so happening to be ready to leave our orbit) forces the aliens off world (which, by the way, they have promised to come back and reclaim) thus bringing the Time of Man. It is the contention of Sitchin that the proof of his theory can be found in the genetic remains of Queen Puabi, a noted ruler during the first dynasty of Ur. Sitchin believes that the former ruler, worshiped as a demigod during her reign, was a direct descendent in the line of alien overlords the tablets speak of, and that her genetic material- presumably a direct mingling of alien and the genetically altered human DNA- will prove it so. In order to prove his theory right (or wrong), Sitchin is calling for her ancient DNA to be checked. Calling Occupants No stranger to controversy, it is not too much of a shocker for people who have followed the research of Sitchin to see him putting it all on the line for his theory. To him, this is not a theory but fact. One could say that he has made a career putting it on the line for his theory. For decades, Sitchin has been the laughing stock of the scientific and academic world. Mocked as a deluded snake oil salesman and said to be nothing more than a purveyor of "pop culture paleo-babble", his theories are all but ignored by any respected grey beards out there. The few who pay him even the slightest mind either keep it to themselves or join in his fate of public ridicule. But despite his "murky professional image" (if you will), Sitchin’s out there theories have found their believers. He has written seven books on the subject of the Annunaki (The Earth Chronicles) as well as several companion texts on the ancient world and is often found in the "Works Cited" pages of every book on the subject since. So for him to look at the people who have mocked him for decades and openly ask them to prove him wrong does take a certain amount of guts. But that said... it is a total long shot. As we said earlier, the overwhelming majority of respected and credible scientists find Sitchin's theory to be well thought out flights of fantasy at best. Men who believe that such theories are nothing more than fantasy would not give said fantasies the benefit of credibility burning the calories it out take to go out and actually prove said theory wrong would give it. That said, in recent days the "Ancient Astronaut" theory- including the version preached by Sitchin- has gained a lot of public attention. A favorite topic on late night television and radio shows (like Coast to Coast AM), the popularity of the subject of "Ancient Astronauts" went as far as to prompt The History Channel to run a five week run (with rumors pointing to another run at the series) of a series devoted to the subject. Such a challenge to prove the theory correct (or incorrect) might be just the kind of thing that a cable channel might want to spend a few dollars trying to figure out. ...Somewhere out there... I have no idea where this is all going to end up. Truthfully, there is little chance that without raising the eyebrow of an ambitious cable network looking to generate a couple eyes on them for a night anyone is going to make a move to take up Zechariah’s challenge. Like I said before, no credible academic or scientist is going to give Sitchin- a man who they openly mock- the credibility of proving hi wrong. Like a wise man once said: the Eagle does not hunt the Fly. Besides, proving Sitchin wrong would not do anything to disprove his theory. 4500 years of decay would leave little to no genetic material left in the artifacts found within her tomb. And even if there was, to send genetic researchers on a wild goose chase in thousand year old DNA looking for some unspecified anomaly in their code versus the code of say a modern man, whose DNA would look different already due to the thousands of years in human evolution, leaves a ton of room for speculation. So until the Annunaki themselves land on Earth for the whole world to see, Sitchin’s theory will stay as just that, a theory.

The Irish calendar is the Julian calendar as it was in use in Ireland, but also incorporating Irish cultural festivals and views of the division of the seasons, presumably inherited from earlier Celtic calendar traditions. For example, the pre-Christian Celtic year began on 1 November, although in common with the rest of the Western world, it now begins on 1 January.[1][clarification needed] Winter ("Geimhreadh") - November, December, January ( Samhain, Nollaig, Eanáir ) ) Spring ("Earrach") - February, March, April ( Feabhra, Márta, Aibreán ) ) Summer ("Samhradh") - May, June, July ( Bealtaine, Meitheamh, Iúil ) ) Autumn ("Fómhar" Harvest) - August, September, October (Lúnasa, Meán Fómhair, Deireadh Fómhair) In English-language Julian calendars, the months are based on names from Classical mythology, such as the name "February" which derives from the Roman purification rite, Februa. In the Irish calendar, the names of the months in the Irish language refer to Celtic religion and mythology, and generally predate the arrival of Christianity. The words for May (Bealtaine), August (Lúnasa) and November (Samhain), are the names of Gaelic religious festivals. In addition, the names for September (Meán Fómhair) and October (Deireadh Fómhair) translate directly as "middle of harvest" and "end of harvest". Christianity has also left its mark on the Irish months: the name for December (Nollaig) derives from Latin natalicia (birthday), referring to the birth of Christ.[2] Historical texts[which?] suggest that, during Ireland's Gaelic era, the day began and ended at sunset.[3] Through contact with the Romans, the seven-day week was borrowed by continental Celts, and then spread to the people of Ireland.[3] In Irish, four days of the week have names derived from Latin, while the other three relate to the fasting done by early Gaelic Christians.[4] Dé Luain - from Latin dies Lunae - from Latin Dé Máirt - from Latin dies Martis - from Latin Dé Céadaoin - referring to Gaelic fasting: from céad (first) aoin (fast) i.e. the first fast of the week - referring to Gaelic fasting: from (first) (fast) i.e. the first fast of the week Déardaoin - the day between the fasts - the day between the fasts Dé hAoine - the day of the fast - the day of the fast Dé Sathairn - from Latin dies Saturni - from Latin Dé Domhnaigh - from Latin dies Dominicus (an alternative Latin name for Sunday, dies Solis being more common) See also [ edit ] References [ edit ]

Physical doping and brain doping apparently often go hand in hand. A study from Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) and Eberhard Karls University in Tubingen revealed that people who engage in physical doping often also take drugs for brain doping. The study was the first of its kind to survey simultaneously the two categories of doping and brain doping. Around 3,000 hobby triathletes were anonymously surveyed using a questionnaire at sporting events in Frankfurt, Regensburg, and Wiesbaden. "The results correlated with earlier findings about doping in leisure and popular sports and brain doping in society as a whole. The findings also illustrated for the first time that physical doping and brain doping often go together, at least for recreational triathletes," said Mainz University Professor of Sports Medicine Dr. Dr. Perikles Simon. The study was carried out using the randomized response technique (RRT), which allows for better estimates of unknown cases in response to sensitive questions. It suggested that 13.0 percent of the athletes surveyed had used illegal and banned substances in the twelve months prior to the survey; 15.1 percent were believed to have engaged in brain doping. When talking about doping substances, a distinction is made between illicit drugs such as cocaine or heroin and banned substances for physical performance enhancement such as anabolic steroids, EPO, or growth hormones. Brain doping is the use of illegal substances and pharmaceuticals such as illegal amphetamines, modafinil or Ritalin to improve mental performance. The findings indicate that the estimated proportion of men who dope (13.7 percent) is higher than the proportion of women (8.0 percent). The prevalence of doping also seemed to be higher at the European Championships in Frankfurt than at the other triathlons in Regensburg and Wiesbaden. The competitions involved participants taking part in either a classic Ironman with a 4 kilometer swim, 180 kilometer cycle ride, and 42 kilometer marathon or tackling half of the actual Ironman distance. In their survey carried out during the 2011 season, the scientists interviewed a total of 2,997 triathlon participants. 2,987 questionnaires (99.7 percent) were returned. The study also examined whether there was a correlation between the use of legal and freely available substances for improving physical and mental performance and the use of illegal and banned substances. This would appear to be the case, as athletes who use legal substances to improve their performance also tend to use illegal substances as well. Finally, another important finding of the study was the sign of a correlation between physical doping and brain doping, which can be found with both legal and illicit substances. The use of legal substances to enhance physical performance is thus relatively often associated with the consumption of substances to improve mental performance, just as there is a correlation between the use of illicit substances for both doping and brain doping. "This indicates that athletes do not actually take the substances to achieve a specific goal, but may show a certain propensity towards performance enhancing substances," explained Simon. The findings are important to better understand why people take such substances and to be able to provide targeted prevention. Scientists from the Sports Medicine, Prevention, and Rehabilitation division at the Institute of Sports Science and the Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy at the University Medical Center of Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz and from the Department of General Psychology and the Department of Sports Medicine at Eberhard Karls University in Tubingen took part in the study entitled "Associations between physical and cognitive doping -- a cross-sectional study in 2.997 triathletes." The study was also carried out in cooperation with the IRONMAN headquarters in Hanau, Germany.

Owners of homes in low-lying areas around town, take note: The Federal Emergency Management Agency is planning an extensive audit of construction in the city's flood zones. The officially termed Community Assistance Visit, set to begin between now and the spring, will look at a handful of neighborhoods to see whether buildings constructed in the past five years—and the codes and variances that govern them—meet the requirements of the agency's National Flood Insurance Program. About 70,000 buildings in the five boroughs lie in the updated flood zones that were redrawn and expanded after Superstorm Sandy. Most of their owners will be required to join the insurance program. The audit will also test whether the city's building policies are being correctly implemented by developers and homeowners. "We are certainly participating and working with them to make it a successful visit," said Daniel Zarrilli, director of the Mayor's Office of Recovery and Resiliency. In neighborhoods like Breezy Point, Queens, where about 400 homes were rebuilt in excess of FEMA's standards, community housing organizations hope the visit could one day result in a significant cut in the cost of flood insurance. Insurance discounts "Homes that are being rebuilt now because of fire and storm damage are all raised in compliance with FEMA's flood-zone criteria," said Arthur Lighthall, general manager of the Breezy Point Co-op. "But the co-op actually allowed an additional foot of height to those structures, above and beyond the two extra feet already required by [the city's] building code." Though the impending audit is required for any community that participates in the flood insurance program, the visit was also triggered by a renewed request by the Department of Buildings to explore joining the Community Rating System, a FEMA program that grants discounts on flood insurance premiums to municipalities that go -beyond the minimum federal resiliency requirements. The hundreds of communities around the country that participate in the rating system can see discounts as high as 45% on their flood insurance premiums, according to FEMA. The city is keeping expectations to a minimum, saying FEMA does not intend to carve out neighborhoods for the rating system insurance discounts. But nonprofits are saying that allowing neighborhoods to join makes sense. Breezy Point, a neighborhood structured as a co-op that contains nearly 3,000 homes, has already taken a number of stormproofing measures on its own. It has funded the construction of a berm just offshore and is applying for a FEMA grant for an even more extensive coastal barrier. Breezy Point and the New York Department of State hope that if it is built high enough, FEMA will amend the flood maps, a step that could trigger further insurance rate cuts. "If you build sufficient protection, then FEMA will actually lower flood insurance rates," said A.J. Smith, chairman of the co-op board. But while Breezy Point would be an ideal candidate for the Community Rating System, other neighborhoods are unlikely to be eligible for the discounts. That's because the bulk of the city's dense and aging building stock could never feasibly be retrofitted to meet the current resiliency standards—a prerequisite for joining the program. Prohibitive costs To comply with FEMA floodproofing standards, which were developed for detached, single-family homes elsewhere, property owners would have to raise floors above the flood zone. That could be cost-prohibitive, if not physically impossible, for most of the city's multifamily buildings, which is why the piecemeal approach might make sense. "Imagine New York City having to comply with all of the FEMA guidelines as they stand now—it would be impossible and impractical," said Laurie Schoeman, resilience program officer at housing nonprofit Enterprise Community Partners' Manhattan office. "But it might be easier for communities like Breezy Point because it is mostly single-family structures."

The Associated Press WASHINGTON -- Halloween came a little early at the White House as U.S. President Donald Trump welcomed the children of White House reporters into the Oval Office Friday for some early Halloween treats. More than a dozen costumed kids, including little witches and Princess Leias, a pint-sized Darth Vader, and a purple-haired unicorn gathered around the Resolute Desk, where the president handed out little boxes of White House Hershey's Kisses. The president also dispensed plenty of compliments, congratulating the kids' parents for doing a good job -- at least of raising children, if not their coverage of the Trump White House. "I cannot believe the media produced such beautiful kids. How the media did this, I don't know," he said as he welcomed the kids to join him around his desk. Trump also joked with the kids about their parents' professions. "You going to grow up to be like your parents?" he asked. "Don't answer. That can only get me in trouble, that question," he joked. Soon after, White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders delivered a box full of candy, and the president started handing out the treats. "You have no weight problems, that's the good news, right?" he said at one point. "So you take out whatever you need, OK? If you want some for your friends, take 'em. We have plenty." He also asked one little girl how the press treated her. "I'll bet you get treated better by the press than anybody in the world, right?" he joked. The president will also be welcoming ghost and goblins to the South Lawn for trick-or-treating on the eve of Halloween on Monday. Families of school children from 20 schools in the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia have been invited to the festivities, along with military families and community organizations. The president and first lady Melania Trump will be handing out presidential M&M's and treats from the White House pastry kitchen, and the South Portico will be decorated in spider webs, according to the White House. Fog will fill the air and trick-or-treaters will see bats and pumpkins decorated with the profiles of presidents past. Federal agencies including NASA, the Secret Service and the National Park Service also will be handing out giveaways.

Model Folding Pop-Up Camper For Sale Camp365 folding pop-up camper Std. Model highlights: Fold-Out Stair Dry Lockable Storage Aqualon Insulation Interior Dining Table Towable by Cars/ATVs This Camp365 folding pop-up camper is amazingly easy to use as an off-road companion, an ice fishing camper, a weekend retreat, or a hunting base camp! It has 83 cubic feet of dry storage and the ability to sleep six people. The marine-grade Aqualon roof is made of a durable synthetic used in the marine industry to resist punctures, fading, cracking, and extreme weather conditions. The two side awnings with poles will protect you as you are outside preparing food, and there is a solar panel plug so that you can add an optional solar panel if desired. The Camp365 folding pop-up camper is an innovative camper that will amaze you! At one moment you can be pulling your camper down the trail, and then nine minutes later you have your 700-cubic foot cabin all set up. The seven-window cross ventilation will keep a breeze flowing through, and since there is no wood or canvas on the Camp365, you won't have to deal with rot, mold, or tears. The steel reinforcements maximize these campers' strength and durability, and the aluminum alloy shell minimizes its weight. Just like a home's attic and a stadium's dome, the Camp365 insulates with air by providing an "air gap" in between the camper's exterior and interior walls, so you'll always be comfortable while inside. One of the best parts about the Camp365 is that it can fold down into a manageable height of 6' 8" and width of 4', so it easily fits into any garage for stowing away when not in use. View All Std.

Warning: contains spoilers for Supernatural season nine. A few weeks ago, Den of Geek reviewed the backdoor pilot for a potential Supernatural spin-off, Bloodlines. We were, shall we say, unimpressed, and it seems that opinion was shared by – well, everybody. In an astounding and almost unprecedented turn of events, the Supernatural fandom was united in its opinion: the spin-off was utterly lacklustre, mostly because it had very little to do with its parent show. In the days since the review was written, we received an onslaught of comments agreeing with this preliminary evaluation of Bloodlines. It’s since been announced the CW will not be going ahead with the spin-off, quite possibly causing the fandom to breathe a collective sigh of relief. But, despite the seemingly ubiquitous dislike for this backdoor pilot, that doesn’t mean the fandom doesn’t want to see a Supernatural spin-off at all; rather, it means we’d like to see one that bears a closer relationship to the original show. One of the most appealing things about Supernatural (and there are a great many of those) is its elaborate mythology and wide cast of characters. The story takes place in an extremely rich and detailed world (even if the details of that world have recently seen too much retconning), peopled by fascinating and beloved secondary characters. Thus, Bloodlines’ biggest weakness was that, instead of making use of this world and these characters, it ploughed ahead into forging new territory rather than developing what the fans already loved. So what spin-offs would we like to see? There are dozens of possibilities for shows that could further develop the beloved world of Supernatural, so here are a few ideas. Naturally, each of them would have their own pitfalls and difficulties, and yet each could add another interesting side to the Winchesters’ universe. The CW’s president, Mark Pedowitz, also recently announced that the CW might be interested in giving another spin-off a try, so who knows? Maybe some of these ideas will actually see the light of day. For easier reading, the spin-offs have been classified by the following categories: Historical, Other Dimensions, Hunter and Monster Culture, and Crack Theories. Historical The CW’s already demonstrated with Frontierland and Time After Time that they can pull off perfectly respectable (even if probably not overly accurate) historical episodes that have all the flavour of the period in question, hence these period spin-off suggestions. Samuel Colt After Bloodlines aired, many fan comments proposed Samuel Colt as the subject of a potential spin-off – an idea with which I wholeheartedly agree. Colt is a fascinating character: he forged a weapon that can kill all but five beings in existence, designed the Devil’s Gate to keep a portal to Hell closed, and was probably pretty damn well-versed in the lore if those things are anything to judge by. We got to meet him in the Western-style episode Frontierland, in which he’s a lonely recluse who’s put hunting behind him. There’s got to be a story there, and one that could be the stuff of a respectable show – one exploring how the great Samuel Colt became a hunter and acquired the knowledge he needed to forge the Colt and seal Hell, and what sacrifices he’s had to make along the way that led to him being a lonely recluse. The Men Of Letters Another suggestion received a handful of times was that of a Man of Letters-themed spinoff. The Men of Letters were introduced with Henry Winchester and his rather steadfast prejudice against hunters, and since then we’ve had a few glimpses of them: the flashbacks in Slumber Party, Josie and her struggles and sacrifices, and renegade Man of Letters Magnus in Blade Runners. Though fairly cursory, these flashbacks raise a handful of themes that suggest potential storylines. Most interesting is the alternative approach the Men of Letters take to the supernatural, being more interested in classifying than in killing. Thus, a show themed around this group of intellectual elitists would have both similarities to Supernatural (in the sense of seeking out and killing monsters) and differences (in their intellectual interest in the supernatural that Sam and Dean simply kill) – thus providing an interesting counterpoint to the Winchesters. Additionally, Supernatural’s mentions of Men of Letters have hinted at a number of other interesting themes that a well-written storyline could explore: the role of women in this clearly prejudiced and mostly male society, the power structures within this intellectual brotherhood, and the potential dissent and renegade rebels such as Magnus. The only danger of this spin-off lies in all the potential mythological retconning – introducing the Men of Letters already contradicted a fair bit of canon (for example, Henry Winchester was canonically alive and well when Dean went back in time, meaning he couldn’t have run off when John was seven), but if the writers can manage to tiptoe the delicate line between exploring the lore and mythology without changing too much of it, this could be another intriguing exploration of the Supernatural world. Other Dimensions Supernatural’s always been in that difficult limbo of being a show that quite literally deals with different planes of existence but not having the budget to actually show any of it. Purgatory’s a forest (because there’s no shortage of those in Vancouver, Canada), Heaven looks like either gardens or suburbs for the same reason, and Hell – well, we’ve barely had glimpses of it. This isn’t to complain: with its limitations, Supernatural has more than outdone itself, choosing to focus on the psychological effects of these realms of existence rather than on poor CGI, and it pays off. Still, if Supernatural were to magically acquire a budget (any of the producers wanna sell their souls?), each of these realms of existence could provide fodder for a fascinating show. Heaven So far, Supernatural’s portrayals of Heaven have been either cliché garden scenes or the much more psychologically complex rendition from Dark Side Of The Moon (one of the best episodes of Supernatural in its decision to present Heaven as a Matrix where you’re stuck in your memories for all eternity – thus managing not to pull any punches while staying on budget). However, the angels and Heaven have gotten so deeply involved in the storylines of Supernatural lately that they barely fit – and it just might be time for Heaven to get its own show. Don’t get me wrong: I’ve enjoyed the aspects of this season dealing with the angels and Heaven, but there just isn’t enough room in one show to deal with all the complex issues Heaven entails while believably maintaining a focus on hunting and good old weekly monsters. Seasons ago, Supernatural was able to meld some of its seasonal story arcs with excellently-written monster of the week episodes, but with the angel storyline as it is, it’s just too big to adequately be adequately addressed that way while leaving room for the day-to-day hunting, geeky references, and human interactions. So, perhaps instead of trying to squeeze the angel storyline into a hunting show, Heaven could benefit from its own storyline – one that, based on this season, could essentially focus on the issues surrounding creating a new society. How does a race of beings without free will create their own society? How do they make laws, establish a hierarchy, and forge social structures? What does this society of immortal beings live for? How do they solve conflicts of interest about faith and what angels are supposed to do? Angels can pose dozens of interesting philosophical issues of the kind Supernatural’s really good at addressing, and a spin-off would give it the time and space to do that. Of course, that raises the question of where that would leave fan favourite and series regular Misha Collins – but that issue can be dealt with, possibly by having Cas choose Heaven over Earth, as he’s already tended to do over the seasons. Purgatory Purgatory is, according to Supernatural lore, the place where monsters go after they die (though, as Castiel pointed out, there’s the nagging question of where monsters go if they die in Purgatory, which would have to be resolved). It’s unclear whether demons are included in that category of monsters that end up in this monster Heaven, but either way, Supernatural has a long string of fascinating and unfortunately dead monsters. A Purgatory spin-off would provide the perfect way to bring them back and endless possibilities to explore the backstories and motivations of characters from Eve, Ruby, Lilith, Abaddon, Alastair, Meg, and Azazel, to Dick Roman and Gordon Walker. According to Biblical lore, Purgatory is also a place of purification, thus opening up potential storylines about monsters struggling with their monstrosity and attempting to change their nature. That direction, in particular, could bring back a number of beloved and not-so-evil “monsters”: Benny, Madison, Amy Pond…. Hell When I began writing this article, I was all set to point out that since Crowley’s been around so much this season that they might as well give Mark Sheppard his own show and, in the process, get rid of all that uncomfortable moral grey area of the Winchesters constantly working with someone who’s murdered their friends. Since then, Mark Sheppard’s become a season regular on Supernatural and Dean’s become a demon, which means that idea rather ends up down the drain. For all we know, Dean might depose Crowley next season and rule Hell in his own right. However, assuming that Dean becomes human again (which is likely) and that Crowley doesn’t die (which also seems likely), this is a spin-off that could still happen. I don’t think anybody would say no to a show about Mark Sheppard (even if he were eating crumpets and sassing everybody), and a spin-off about Hell could deal with different factions of demons, loyal to different rulers of Hell and alternatively motivated by faith (like Lucifer’s followers) or self-interest (like the followers of businessman-king Crowley). Also, Hell is pretty much fundamental to the landscape of Supernatural, being the birthplace of demons and whatnot, so maybe it could benefit from a closer look – or perhapsit would be better if it stayed shrouded in mystery. Hunter and Monster Culture Supernatural has an almost-unprecedented array of secondary characters that are interesting and well-loved enough to have their own shows. Here are some possibilities for what they may look like. A Hunter Ensemble Show Supernatural is special in that, instead of an ensemble cast, it has two leads and very little in the way of a community around them. Castiel is now a season regular, and Bobby used to be around quite a bit, but other than that, Supernatural never truly had a sense of community in the same way a lot of other shows, like Buffy or Castle do. Part of it was always the point: it was the story of the Winchesters against the world, alone and abandoned, outside of family, the law, and any kind of support structures, which is what leads them to many of the actions they take. Although Jensen and Jared and Misha more than carry the show on their own, I often find myself wondering about the hunter community at large, wishing I could find out more about hunter culture and interaction, and explore the way this community passes along information, maintains relationships, and stays under the radar. There are several Supernatural characters that could form the cast of such a show; unfortunately, most of them are dead, but that’s never been a problem for Supernatural, which means that putting together a well-loved ensemble cast isn’t totally outside the realm of possibility. It could be made up by Jo and Ellen (maintaining the roadhouse and a sort of hunter “base”), Victor Henriksen (who is the hunters’ FBI-liaison and helps them avoid the law), Missouri Mosely (who doesn’t like her sass?) and Pamela Barnes as psychics, Ash and Charlie as the resident hackers/lore database managers, Bela Talbot as a liaison with whom the hunter community grudgingly works because she can get them what they need, and Jody Mills (because she’s badass and everyone loves her). Possibly throw some Campbells into the mix, and maybe some monsters who carve out a place in the hunter community for themselves by striving to be human and perhaps going undercover to provide intel (this would, for example, be a chance to bring back the fan-beloved Benny). A Monster Ensemble Show One of the more interesting aspects of the otherwise lacklustre Bloodlines is that it tried to tell a story from the monsters’ point of view – even if those monsters had very little to do with Supernatural’s monsters. In particular, shapeshifter David Lassiter was one of the highlights of the episode, a supernatural creature who struggled to be good and human, even going so far as to abandon his monster family in the attempt to lead a normal life. Sound like someone we know? A monster-themed spinoff of Supernatural could still work if it got the monsters right – portraying them as actually deadly creatures, struggling with alternative ways of surviving and clinging to (or putting aside) their humanity in a world plagued with prejudiced hunters. That kind of storyline would form an interesting mirror for the Winchesters, showing the desire for humanity and normalcy from the point of view of monsters rather than hunters. There’s no shortage of characters on Supernatural that could fit this bill and which fans would love to see make a comeback: Benny, Garth and his family, Kate from Bitten in season eight, vampire Lenore from season two, werewolf Madison from season two… Furthermore, the story could be fleshed out by a few darker human-turned-monster characters, such as hunter-turned-vampire Gordon and Benny’s girlfriend Andrea. The Jody Mills Show Though I mentioned Jody above as part of an ensemble cast, there's a great deal of feedback from the Supernatural fandom lately about how they’d love to see a show starring Jody. Whether that enthusiasm is enough to garner sufficient ratings and get a show on the air is a bit unclear, but the fact remains that Jody’s one of the most interesting, complex, strong, and well-loved secondary characters on Supernatural. Charlie Bradbury Who doesn’t love Felicia Day? First introduced in an otherwise uninspiring season seven, she’s a geeky, savvy, witty hacker, full of clever comebacks and nerdy references. She has her own brand of hunting – using cleverness and technology rather than good old brawn. A show with her would combine an awesome geek hero, a queer protagonist, and a version of hunting that’s more than just pointing and shooting. Plus, maybe this show, unlike The Big Bang Theory, would get it right about what it means to be a geek. Krissy Chambers and the Freaks and Geeks Remember Krissy Chambers and all the other teenage hunters-in-training? They showed up around the end of season eight, and served as a sort of parallel for the Winchesters- young and naïve and yet strangely deadly, making their way into hunting without quite knowing what they’re getting into. A spin-off focusing on this group would possibly draw in a younger audience; I could see a Buffy-style show, with these hunters in training navigating adolescence, coming of age, high school and college, and relationships – all while balancing that with saving people and hunting things. The Crack Theories I couldn’t write this article without adding this section: the spinoffs that no network would actually make, but which are a hell of a laugh to think about. Gavin McLeod in the future If “King of the Damned” is anything to go by, Gavin McLeod attempting to deal with the future, getting drunk and going on about being the Prince of Hell, and arguing with Crowley would make from a great comedy. Gabriel I have no idea what this show would entail, but apparently everyone in this fandom (except me) loves Gabriel enough to sell their soul to bring him back, so I could definitely imagine a show that was all-Gabriel, all the time. There would be shenanigans, each new episode would have a different genre/style/aesthetic, and none of the plots would make sense. Every once in a while, the Winchesters would show up to do their trademark “annoyed” faces. And, to save the best for last….sometimes the Supernatural fandom goes a little crazy during the hellatuses (hellish summer hiatuses), which means that the following ideas (sources here and here) ensue: (Thank Metatron that the Supernatural cast takes ridiculous promotional photos) Which Supernatural spin-offs would you love to see?

Washington (CNN) -- Oil giant BP and contractor Halliburton knew of potential flaws in the cement slurry used to reinforce the oil well below the Deepwater Horizon rig before it exploded in April, according to a letter Thursday from the lead investigator for a federal probe of the Gulf oil disaster. The letter from Fred Bartlit Jr. to the National Commission on the BP Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill and Offshore Drilling said that tests in February on a cement slurry similar to what was used on the Macondo well showed instability -- and that both companies had the data. According to Bartlit's letter, the cement was poured to stabilize the well on April 19 and 20. The 20th was the day of the explosion on the Deepwater Horizon rig above the well that killed 11 workers and caused the worst oil spill in U.S. history. "Halliburton and BP both had results in March showing that a very similar foam slurry design to the one actually pumped at the Macondo well would be unstable, but neither acted upon that data," the letter said. "Halliburton (and perhaps BP) should have considered redesigning the foam slurry before pumping it at the Macondo well," the letter continued. The news caused Halliburton stock to drop in value by almost 8 percent by the end of trading Thursday, to $31.68 a share. U.S. Rep. Edward Markey, D-Massachusetts, called for the oil spill commission to get full subpoena power, and for BP CEO Bob Dudley to agree to testify before Congress. "The fact that BP and Halliburton knew this cement job could fail only solidifies their liability and responsibility for this disaster," Markey said in a written statement. "This is like building a car when you know the brakes could fail, but you sell the cars anyway." In a report on the incident issued by BP on September 8, the company admitted that "weaknesses in cement design and testing, quality assurance and risk assessment" contributed to the explosion, but put the blame fully on Halliburton. Halliburton responded to the report by saying that it had noticed "a number of substantial omissions and inaccuracies." Mark Bly, BP's head of safety and operations, said in a video accompanying BP's report that Halliburton "did not conduct comprehensive lab tests that could've identified potential problems with the cement." But he added, "We believe that BP and Halliburton working together should have better identified and addressed the issues underlying the cement job." Bartlit emphasized in his letter Thursday that cementing failures are a known hazard in the oil industry, with specific tests such as a "negative pressure test" and "cement evaluation logs" designed to identify cementing problems. However, he wrote, workers at BP and possibly the company that operated the Deepwater Horizon rig, Transocean, "misinterpreted or chose not to conduct such tests at the Macondo well." The mile-deep well was pronounced dead in September when workers completed sealing it off. As part of the kill process, the workers drilled into the annulus, or the outer ring of the well. No oil was found there, which could be an important clue in the investigation. Retired Adm. Thad Allen, who led the government's response to the spill, said at the time that a possible cause of the explosion was "further down in the well, there was some kind of a crossover between the annulus and the casing pipe where it was cemented." A commission hearing on the disaster is scheduled for November 9, but Bartlit's letter said he was notifying the commission about the cement slurry issue immediately in order to "facilitate your consideration of their implications for offshore drilling safety." While technical in nature -- using the word "hydrocarbon" to refer to oil, for example -- the letter depicts a process that failed to detect a potential cause of the disaster. "We have known for some time that the cement used to secure the production casing and isolate the hydrocarbon zone at the bottom of the Macondo well must have failed in some manner," the letter said, noting that BP used a "nitrogen foam cement" recommended and supplied by Halliburton. As part of the investigation, the letter said, Chevron conducted independent tests of similar cement slurry materials supplied by Halliburton and found the mix to be unstable. "Halliburton has stated publicly that it tested the Macondo cement before pumping it on April 19th and 20th, and that its tests indicated the cement would be stable," Bartlit's letter said. "When Chevron informed us of the preliminary results of its tests, we asked Halliburton to give us all of the data from all tests it had run on the Macondo cement slurry." That information revealed the two February tests by Halliburton of a slightly different cement slurry mix that showed it was unstable, the letter said. "Halliburton provided data from one of the two February tests to BP in an email dated March 8, 2010," the letter said. "The data appeared in a technical report along with other information. There is no indication that Halliburton highlighted to BP the significance of the foam stability data or that BP personnel raised any questions about it. There is no indication that Halliburton provided the data from the other February test to BP." The Halliburton information also disclosed an additional test in early April, prior to the explosion, that involved the same mix that was used on the Macondo well and also found it to be unstable, the letter said. "The results of this test were reported internally within Halliburton by at least April 17, though it appears that Halliburton never provided the data to BP," the letter said. Halliburton then conducted another test using a modified procedure, the letter said, and the result for the first time indicated the slurry design would be stable. However, the letter said investigators were unsure if that fourth test was completed before the cement slurry was poured at the Macondo well, and that Halliburton reported the positive result to BP after the blowout.

The Line 1 and 2 platforms of Spadina Station should really be two separate stops given the physical distance between them. That was the TTC's original plan, but for a variety of reasons, the decision was ultimately made to fashion Spadina as a sprawling interchange. The long walk between the two platforms was once made easier by a lengthy moving sidewalk that simultaneously delighted and enraged subway users. It was one of the most interesting features of the subway system - and a hell of a lot of fun for kids - but it was also expensive to maintain, prone to break down, and ultimately went the way of the Dodo in 2004 when the TTC decided that it just wasn't worth the money to keep up. Many people remember the moving walkway as it was removed just over decade ago, but the story behind it is an intriguing one. When the Spadina Extension was built in 1978, the current north/south platforms were initially designed to be a separate stations altogether, one of which would go by the name of Lowther, after the street which runs immediately to the south of the Line 1 portion of the station. In the end, the TTC had a change of heart and decided to build a 150 metre long walkway to link the two stations under the the same designation. There are a couple of reasons why they did this. Aside from the obvious savings on staffing costs (the north portion of Spadina Station does not feature a fare collector), Transit Toronto explains that concerns about the financial viability of the University Line might have played a role. "From 1969 to 1978, the University subway was closed Mondays to Saturdays at 9:45 p.m. and all day Sundays and holidays. "If this arrangement had to continue, Spadina Station would have to be used as the southern terminal station of the Spadina line (although it would have been far more convenient for passengers to transfer to the Bloor-Danforth subway at St. George). "This is why a crossover was installed just to the north of the station and "Spadina" installed on the subway rollsigns. Thus by naming the station 'Spadina' people would be able to connect the station in their minds with the Bloor-Danforth subway far more readily than a 'Lowther' terminal." Obviously ridership on the University Line increased to the point that there were no more early closures (it's almost funny to think that was ever necessary), and the moving walkway was a boon for folks using the Spadina Bus who wanted to head north upon arrival at the station. As many as 11,000 people were using the walkway per day in the years leading up to its eventual demise, but faced with exorbitant costs to refurbish and maintain the walkway, the TTC closed it down before removing it altogether. It's not difficult to spot where it once was, as the tiled laid down in its place doesn't match those that were originally installed in the tunnel. If you look closely, you can even see signs prompting riders to hold onto the handrail. The true tragedy in all of this is, of course, that there was nothing quite so fun as bombing down the moving walkway on a bike late at night when no one was around. It felt a like entering into the world of TRON.

Image copyright Reuters Image caption Rehearsals for Victory Day have been taking place throughout the week. Russia is marking the Soviet victory over the Nazis in World War Two with its annual Victory Day parade in Red Square. And, as the BBC's Steve Rosenberg reports from Moscow, the current crisis with neighbouring Ukraine has led to a surge of patriotism amongst Russians. At the Museum of the Great Patriotic War, a voice announces a minute's silence. The sound of a slow-beating metronome echoes through the dimly lit chamber, the Hall of Remembrance and Sorrow. "Eternal Glory to the heroes!" the announcer declares. Solemn music plays. Image caption This year's Victory Day celebrations are likely to strengthen the wave of patriotism sweeping Russia The Russian war veterans who have been standing, heads bowed, approach the white marble statue of a woman grieving over a fallen soldier. They lay red carnations in memory of the more than 20 million Soviet citizens killed in World War Two. When they fought and defeated Nazi Germany 70 years ago, Russia and the West were allies. But when I speak to some of the veterans, it does not feel like that today. I get chatting to 89-year-old Vladimir Petrovich. He is wearing his old military uniform, which is covered in more than 40 medals. "Look what's happening in Ukraine," Vladimir tells me. "America is supporting a government in Kiev that the people there don't want. America is trying to run the show. I'm worried there could be another war." Image caption Bilal Bagadiev has met former US President Clinton, but says he has now gone off America Then I meet 88-year-old Bilal Bagadiev. He is wearing a sailor's cap from the Far Eastern Fleet. Bilal tells me that he has run 100 marathons. He has even run 10km (6 miles) with Bill Clinton and got a signed photo of the US president as a souvenir. But Bilal has gone off America. "Today," he tells me, "the US is trying to push Russia around. But they won't succeed." And yet when the veterans sit down for lunch and a cabaret, the US is very much part of the celebrations. When the show begins, the theme tune from the classic US soap opera Dallas blasts out of the loudspeakers. It is repeated a dozen times. It seems that not everything American is frowned upon. Image copyright AP Image caption It is estimated that 20 million Russians were killed in World War Two Image copyright AFP Image caption The Victory Day celebrations are being held all over the country The party kicks off with the man once referred to as the "Frank Sinatra of the USSR" Iosif Kobzon. As well as crooning, Mr Kobzon plays politics, too. He is a Russian MP in the Duma. "With pain we remember all the victims," he sings, "their names will forever be etched into our hearts, like the scars of war." Iosif Kobzon was born in Soviet Ukraine, not far from Sloviansk. There is a statue of him in Donetsk, which was recently daubed with blue and yellow paint - the colours of the Ukrainian flag. Mr Kobzon, too, blames the West for today's violence in Ukraine. "The West lacks intelligence, it doesn't understand the situation and it has forgotten the past," Mr Kobzon tells me. "At some point they'll realise their mistake. And Russia will forgive them. That's because we're so big-hearted." Image caption Singer Iosif Kobzon (left) meets veteran Vladimir Petrovich, both of whom accuse the West of stirring up trouble in Ukraine The show ends with 11-year-old Mariya singing her heart out about World War Two, about fierce battles by the Volga River and Stalingrad. "The whole world bows their heads to our heroes," she sings. The war veterans look on with admiration and applaud loudly when Mariya's performance is over. When I talk to Mariya, she tells me that her country today is facing "threats and dangers". She points to what is happening in Ukraine. "It's bad. It's a civil war there," Mariya says, "and one result is that Ukrainians don't like Russians anymore. That pains me, because Ukrainians are our brothers." Mariya goes on to tell me all about patriotism, about how important it is to love your country, because, she says, your home country "is like a second mother". Following Russia's annexation of Crimea, Russia has been experiencing a wave of patriotism. It is encouraged by the Kremlin, and fuelled by rousing reports on state-controlled television and radio. This year's Victory Day parades and celebrations are likely to strengthen that sentiment.

Spread the love Richmond, Virginia – Veteran police officers in Virginia recently gave strong public support for ending prohibition at a meeting this week. This Tuesday, The Governor’s Task Force on Prescription Drug and Heroin Abuse met in Richmond to discuss the current strategies used in the drug war. At the meeting, Galax Police Chief Rick Clark Jr. made some very strong comments in support of drug legalization and even admitted that the government has lost the drug war. “We’ve been a dismal failure. We’ve missed the mark. I don’t think we can throw money at it. Obviously we have not arrested our way out of this,” Clark said. Other veteran officers at the meeting shared his sentiments. Virginia Beach Police Chief James Cervera, for example, said that “We had a war on drugs. We’ve lost miserably. That’s the best I can tell you.” Believe it or not, even Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe agrees that the drug war is a failure, although he would not come out and say it in those terms. McAuliffe admitted that despite kidnapping, caging and killing people, drug use has gone up. Responding to the criticisms, McAuliffe said that, “Heroin and prescription drug abuse have really reached epidemic proportions here in the commonwealth. Deaths from prescription overdoses have doubled in the last 15 years. Deaths from heroin overdoses doubled in the last two years. The problem has put additional burdens on the law enforcement community as well as the health care costs of emergency and long-term-care treatment. It’s so important that we stop the increase in addiction and overdose and reverse this very terrible trend.” Overall, more and more people across the country, even members of the establishment, are beginning to admit that the drug war is more of a problem than the drugs are. However, the state is not loosening up on their drug laws any time soon. The only effort that the state has recently made towards legalization is a new “good samaritan” law which gives legal protection to people who bring friends to the hospital when they are overdosing. Even that law doesn’t go far enough though because it still requires the person to be charged and appear in court. “This law allows an individual to call for help, and in the event the caller is charged on the basis of an officer’s observation … then that person can assert an affirmative defense that he or she was not the dealer. It’s not immunity. You have to plead it. You have to in essence say, ‘I assume the facts as charged, but this is in fact why I am not guilty,’” Richmond’s commonwealth’s attorney, Michael Herring said. Although the laws are just slowly moving in the right direction, the mindset of the general population and even law enforcement is beginning to shift drastically when it comes to the war on drugs.

The most popular Pink Floyd synch theory is undoubtedly Dark Side of the Moon with The Wizard of Oz, commonly referred to as “Dark Side of the Rainbow”. Some people think Pink Floyd purposely created the Dark Side of the Moon to match up with Wizard of Oz, even though the band denies it. We personally think it’s a big coincidence, but you can be the judge of that! With thanks to Andrew C. Wendland, we also list over 50 other listings of Pink Floyd related Synchronizations. Courtesy: The Pink Floyd Movie Synchronization Story “The Pink Floyd albums are listed in chronological order with the corresponding movie. In some cases, only part of the movie lines up with the album, but in the majority of cases, the entire movie can be played to music. A description of each sync appears by clicking on its title. I find that playing a movie with the Closed Captioning helps to follow the movie plot and themes, while performing the sync. Along with each album and movie, I list my rating (grading) of the quality of the synchronization.” – Andrew C.

These days robotic technology is developing so fast that sci-fi is having a hard time keeping up, says best-selling author and roboticist, Daniel H Wilson . He picks the best books on robotics. Our topic today is robotics, but a lot of the books you’ve chosen are science fiction. I wondered how much of what they describe is in the future, or how much is already happening? The answer is always, ‘More than you think is happening right now.’ Also, there is no more avid reader of science fiction than the person who is making it come true. Every roboticist that I’ve ever met has some sort of vision of the future that they’re trying to make come true, and it’s always been affected by science fiction. Read 1 Second Variety by Philip K Dick Read Tell me about your first choice, a short story dating from 1953 called Second Variety by Philip K Dick. Second Variety is… OK, have you ever seen The Terminator? You know that part at the very beginning – it’s this apocalyptic future and there are these humanoid cyborgs with red glowing eyes marching over a field of human skulls, spraying everything down with these Gatling guns, and the humans are being chased around like rats? Then of course it cuts to Los Angeles and you’re thinking ‘Damn! I wanted to see that movie.’ Well this is that movie. Second Variety is what I just described almost exactly. I don’t know the complete provenance, but there is no way that Second Variety didn’t have some impact on the whole Terminator world. The story is primarily concerned with ‘How do you tell a human from a robot?’ But what I found most interesting about it was that it was an apocalyptic future, in which human beings had built machines not to kill other human beings, but to learn how to kill other human beings. The robots initially were just landmines, they were very simple things. They learned how to camouflage themselves, and then human beings became more scarce and smarter, so the robots actually had to begin to learn how to mimic us. What’s interesting to me from a roboticist’s perspective is that it’s just a problem like any other – killing people. You can program a machine to learn how to do that optimally. What’s really fascinating is that the optimal form that this robot has chosen to kill human beings is another human being. That’s just a really, really cool concept to me; it’s a powerful message. In terms of robotics, given the plethora of futuristic horror stories involving human look-alike robots, is there any value in concentrating on android development? Or will humans always mistrust and spurn robots too accurately in our image? Whether or not roboticists should put effort into making incredibly human-like robots called androids is a topic of debate among scientists. On the one side, you can argue that you’re never going to be able to hit this target: there’s this uncanny valley and you’re always just going to fall into it and creep people out. The uncanny valley is this phenomenon ­– a psychological phenomenon that’s been demonstrated experimentally – that shows human beings get really scared by objects that look almost like human beings, but not quite. And it really bears out intuitively. If you think about zombies – that’s a human being, almost entirely, the only thing that’s wrong is that they’re staggering around, the gait is wrong, they’re not breathing. From a robotics perspective, these are all little things off on the margins. From a distance, zombies look like people, they walk around. But it’s not good enough. There’s an argument that this is a fundamental human reaction that is never going to change. You’re never going to get used to it. On the other side, there are a lot of really good reasons to have androids. Human beings are designed to interact with other human beings. We very quickly, as children, learn how to recognise speech, other people’s emotions, their gestures, what’s going on in their heads. We are experts at figuring out what other people are thinking. And if you make a machine that looks like another person, then you’ve created the most natural interface possible, and therefore a machine that is optimally interacting with other people – as long as you’re not scaring the shit out of them! That’s a little bump in the road there for people who are designing androids. My feeling is that this is research that absolutely should be done, and yes it’s challenging, but never say never – there are a lot of benefits associated with having androids around. Read 2 Starship Troopers by Robert A Heinlein Read On to Starship Troopers by Robert Heinlein. This was first published in 1959 and it’s about a soldier in a futuristic military, who gets involved in an interstellar war between mankind and the bugs… This is a story of war in the future with advanced weaponry against aliens. This story is so grounded, and so realistic – the way that the characters interact, their language, their lingo, the way the military is set up, the way they utilise their weaponry – everything is just pitch perfect. When you read it, you pretty quickly find – at least I did – that you aren’t worried that it is science fiction. I was thinking, ‘This is just so real, these are soldiers, and this could be Spartans fighting shoulder to shoulder – this could be a war that had occurred at any time.’ It’s just human soldiers fighting together, dying together, and that’s really what I took away from this – not the technology, or the crazy sci-fi aspects, and certainly not the political overtones. The politics are not my favourite part about this book, although Heinlein fans might have a different perspective. What really is great about this book to me is that all the science fiction just dissipates in the face of absolute veracity. And that’s something that I think if you’re writing this kind of stuff, you should aspire to. You shouldn’t focus on the gizmos. In this, the power armour is a suit of armour that powers your joints and makes you a lot stronger. These are commonly known as exoskeletons, and I’ve actually worn one of those at Berkeley Bionics. It’s really exhilarating to see that that is something that is already 100 per cent true, but here it just becomes part of the background and the flesh of this story, without ever becoming a huge focus of it. The story ends up being about the characters and a story about war and soldiers suffering, and that’s an amazing accomplishment, I think. So did the idea of exoskeletons appear for the first time in this book? I’m sure exoskeletons had been around before this. This book came out in the 1950s, and there was the General Electric Hardyman prototype that was around then – I don’t know if it was before or after. But this is definitely one of the most famous usages of an exoskeleton in any area of our culture. Another exoskeleton that you see is Ripley fighting the alien queen in Aliens. But this idea of putting on a suit of armour that can make you super strong is obviously a very popular idea, based on how popular Iron Man is right now. It’s the same story, but this has actually become real research. For instance, Berkeley Bionics and Sarcos both worked off grants from DARPA, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, to build real-world instances of exoskeletons. And these things really do work. One thing is that if you put these things on, they basically anticipate where your legs and arms are going to move – and their goal is to get out of your way. The whole interface goal of the machine is that you’re not supposed to feel like you’re wearing anything. You just move and it has joints that are very similar to yours and it moves too, and so you’re just walking around inside it. The only difference is that whenever you pick something up all that weight is transferred all the way down to the ground through the frame of the exoskeleton and you don’t feel a thing. So you can obviously pick up heavy loads and carry them for long periods of time. Also, while they anticipate your movements they can also pick up on your gait. When you’re walking, you do one movement and repeat it a lot, as long as your terrain doesn’t change. So if, for instance, you’re marching down the middle of a highway, these machines can pick up on your gait cycle and then just start replicating it and you don’t have to move your legs at all. Which means you can fall asleep. So you could potentially have a column of soldiers wearing current existing exoskeletons, carrying 250lb backpacks each and not feeling it, marching down the road, catching some zzzs. That’s really just cool. Read 3 Machine Learning by Tom M Mitchell Read Your next book is Machine Learning. This is more of a textbook, I think? Yes, Machine Learning is a textbook and I would call it the textbook for machine learning and artificial intelligence. Machine learning is just the math of teaching a machine how to solve a problem on its own, because you’re not going to be able to be there to solve it for the machine. It can be any kind of problem: it could be a robot that needs to figure out how to get from point A to point B or it could be a supply inventory algorithm for trying to figure out how many products it should order for Walmart. What’s great about this book is that, first of all, it’s not intimidating. It’s really slim and it covers the full range of artificial intelligence algorithms for really solving any problem. You can think of it this way – if you’re a wrestler facing a problem, this has every wrestling move that you’re going to need, in order to knock out any problem that you see. And that is really, really empowering. Because after you read a book like this, you look at any problem that is out there, and you think to yourself, ‘Oh I can build a machine that can figure this out better than a human, with better accuracy, and more quickly.’ They say that once you have a hammer everything begins to look like a nail. That’s absolutely true, and Machine Learning is one hell of a hammer. It’s from 1997 – is it still up to date? It’s a textbook, so they update it. The author, Tom Mitchell, is the chair of the Machine Learning Department at Carnegie Mellon. In layman’s terms he’s a total badass – a very, very accomplished guy. Isn’t machine learning still at a relatively early stage? I disagree. I think machine learning has actually pretty much ripened and matured. Machine learning arguably started in the 1950s, and the term artificial intelligence was coined by John McCarthy in 1956. Back then we didn’t know anything – but scientists were really convinced that they had this thing nipped in the bud, that pretty soon they were going to replace all humans. This was because whenever you are teaching machines to think, the lowest hanging fruit is to give them problems that are very constrained. For example, the rules of a board game. So if you have a certain number of rules and you can have a perfect model of your whole world and you know how everything works within this game, well, yes, a machine is going to kick the crap out of people at chess. What those scientists didn’t realise is how complicated and unpredictable and full of noise the real world is. That’s what mathematicians and artificial intelligence researchers have been working on since then. And we’re getting really good at it. In terms of applications, they’re solving things like speech recognition, face recognition, motion recognition, gesture recognition, all of this kind of stuff. So we’re getting there, the field is maturing. Read 4 Wired for War by P W Singer Read Let’s go on to Wired for War by Peter Singer. This is an analysis of real robots used in war, drones in Iraq etc, and it was a big bestseller. Tell me more. In terms of science fiction becoming real, this book just blows you away – because it really has already become real. Wired for War goes through all the effects of having automated weapons on the battlefield, stuff that’s already happened and stuff that’s likely to happen, and also different ways to think about how to proceed. Do you allow machines to kill people? Do you have a human being who is like an executioner, who pushes the button and takes responsibility for the machine killing people? Should machines only kill other machines? What’s the psychological effect on a populace when they’re being hunted by machines and they never actually see their enemy? Does it scare them? Or does it empower them because they see that their enemy is too scared to come and fight them face to face? These are all really fascinating questions and we’ve seen all this stuff explored in science fiction, again and again. But now you have this opportunity to see how this is affecting our real world, and it’s a much more grave and sombre and serious thing to consider, because it’s not as simple. Real life never is. So I think it is just an amazing contribution to people’s conception and understanding of how robots can be used as weapons, because that is a major use of robotics, to save people’s lives and sometimes to do that by taking people’s lives. It’s an incredible topic to examine and he really hits it from every angle. What kind of things are already being done that people might not know about? It’s filled with examples of futuristic technology. For instance, surveillance is huge. You need to know where things are at – so you can send a machine into a dangerous place to put an eye on something. You think, ‘Yes, I’ve seen that, they use these big goofy robots: I’ve seen The Hurt Locker.’ But the fact is that those are just baby steps towards the ultimate goal of having a completely appropriate machine for whatever environment you’re facing. As it turns out, pretty much every environment on earth has some animal that’s evolved to operate there – perfectly, optimally, totally efficiently. So there are mobile landmines that locomote the same way that crabs do, for being dropped offshore and crawling up under the waves towards the shore. There are snake-like robots that can really change their gait and slither through forest, wrap around a tree, roll their body up the tree and then aim a camera at something. This is happening now? Yes, I had one climb up my leg over at Carnegie Mellon. It’s pretty creepy, but also fascinating. If you look at machines, traditionally people think of them as robotic, which means they move awkwardly. But if you look at an animal it moves very gracefully. I think what we perceive as grace is actually just the beauty of an animal that’s perfectly evolved – there is something amazing about watching a deer bound over a fence. And as machines get more and more developed and advanced, they move less robotically and they start to move smoothly and with natural grace. One of my friends who was in Iraq covering the war there for The New York Times said it was already pretty surreal. You have the local Iraqis going about their business, and then you have the American military venturing out of the green zone encased in huge gear. They’re not yet in exoskeletons, but it’s getting pretty close. Have you noticed that the United States Army is actually pushing that? When you say surreal, what you mean is ‘like in a video game’. And the US Army is all about that. If you see their latest round of commercials, it looks exactly like a video game. There’s a crazy unmanned vehicle shooting around the sky and troops with night vision goggles and dropping out of planes. And at the end it says, ‘This is not a video game, this is real – join the Army.’ Perhaps not the best strategy for winning the hearts and minds of the local population though? That’s a great question and not a simple one to answer. It’s something that Singer really examines from a lot of angles, because even if it’s true that it’s not the best way to win over hearts and minds, there’s still a trade-off because you’re putting fewer American soldiers at risk. It’s a really complicated question, and it’s really interesting to get a serious hold on the part that technology plays, instead of examining science fiction scenarios – because all the science fiction is really happening now. OK, enough about war. Before we get to your last book, please tell me a bit more about gains in other areas – health, manufacturing. The vast majority of the technology that’s applicable in a military setting is applicable in a home setting. Exoskeletons help soldiers run, but they also help elderly people stand up, they help nurses transfer patients from wheelchairs to beds without hurting themselves. The vast majority of research in robotics is also peaceful. I don’t want to give the impression that there are a lot of bloodthirsty roboticists out there. Give me more examples. I had surgery last year – I think that was done using robotics, is that right? Yes, the da Vinci robot performs minimally invasive surgery. The doctor controls it through tele-presence, so the doctor doesn’t even have to be near the machine, although typically he is. It has levels of precision that a human could never approximate. So do you want your doctor, with his big, greasy, human hands inside your body in order to perform some incredibly delicate surgery? Or would you rather have a pencil thin, slender, robotic manipulator slip into your body through a hole that you could poke with a pen, and do the surgery and leave – and you heal up twice as fast? Robots are capable of operating outside of human boundaries. We humans are bound by our senses, by our embodiment – the size of our bodies, the level of precision we can get out of our hands. Robots aren’t. A robot can react much faster than a human being. That’s why there’s an artificial intelligence algorithm inside your anti-lock brake system that’s making decisions on the fly about how much braking pressure to apply. Human beings don’t even push the brakes or the gas on a car anymore. We just push a button that tells the car to do it, because we’re not that good at it. In little ways robots are creeping into our lives, in lots of places we don’t even notice, in order to do things better, faster, stronger. What about in manufacturing? Everything is being made in China. Could we get it made domestically by robots instead? I don’t think any sector of the robotics industry has grown faster or more successfully than industrial robots. Robot arms comprise the majority of that industry. In the past you had these gigantic arms that were rotely obeying their instructions and if, God forbid, you stepped in front of one of these guys, it would arc weld your face, just as soon as it would arc weld the side of the car. Now what’s happened is that these manipulators are getting more and more people friendly, they’re getting smarter. They’re starting to get sensors so they can see what they’re doing, they can make some decisions about how to do what they’re doing. They’re not just these blind slave arms that are just going about replaying the same commands again and again. So even the robot arms are getting smarter. And the fact is that none of the products we have would cost what they cost if there weren’t these factories filled with robots. There’s no human being that can assemble a hard drive. No human being can assemble an iPod, much less all the components that go into the iPod. All the stuff that we own has robot fingerprints all over it, whether you know it or not – whether it came from China or whether it’s domestic. I’ve also noticed that robot arms seem to star in car commercials quite a bit, which is massively ironic because the first robot arm was invented by an American, who went to sell it to General Motors. GM agreed to try it out but in secret because they were afraid that being associated with robots – which at the time were most popular in sci-fi serials, where they showed up and stole the damsel – would be bad for their corporate image. Yes, I think in the popular imagination, if you think of a robot being involved in making something you think of a car. Yes, absolutely – and that’s because that’s where it began, that’s where the whole industry began with Joe Engleberger and his partner. But now it’s across the board. Absolutely, there’s no mass-produced electronic product that is hand-assembled. That would just be crazy. Read 5 For a Breath I Tarry by Roger Zelazny Read Lastly you’ve chosen For a Breath I Tarry, a post-apocalyptic novelette from 1966. Man has disappeared but the robot he has created lives on… Tell me why you chose this book. I love to think about the world from the perspective of a machine. As human beings, we naturally can’t separate ourselves from everything that we see. We judge everything relative to ourselves, to humanity and humankind. When something is cold, that means it’s cold to human beings because we all function within a similar temperature range. Every single thing that we do is filtered through our embodiment. If you’re examining human beings or you’re thinking about people, I think it’s really instructive to try to step out of your own human-ness and try to look at human beings like an alien anthropologist, or like a machine, because they don’t necessarily share our embodiment. They really don’t have that much in common with us at all, except that they can be intelligent like we can. This book is the template of what a short story should be. I’ve read this thing a million times. I read it again today and it made me want to cry. I, hands down, have to say, nobody gets killed, there are no murderous terminator robots, there are no super-action power suits, there are no roving unmanned airplanes in the sky – but this story is just incredible. Why does it make you cry? First of all, it’s one of those classic sci-fi stories that builds up until a great twist at the very end, so you’re rewarded for going along on this ride, and you just show up on the last page and go ‘Aaaaaahhhhhh… Awesome.’ What’s fascinating to me about the story is that misery and happiness are both human constructs. You watch a post-apocalyptic movie and you think to yourself, ‘Oh man, how sad, the whole world’s destroyed, everybody is dead. Bummer!’ But if you’re a machine with a totally different value system, or even if you’re a rat, and all your rat buddies are doing great, who cares that all the humans are dead? In this story it’s a post-apocalyptic world, where no humans are alive. Machines are basically carrying out these instructions that they received from humans eons ago. There haven’t been people in ages, but the machines sort of idolise them almost as gods, because our word was all-powerful. They were totally subservient to us, only we destroyed ourselves. They don’t realise they’re in this post-apocalyptic world, it’s just their world. They don’t realise that when they blow up a bridge, and rebuild another bridge, and build cities for people that are never going to show up and purify water for people that are never going to drink it – they don’t realise how futile and sad that is. And at one point in this book, a machine finds a way to become human and he shows up and he looks around and within five seconds, the horror of the situation comes crashing in on him and he begs to go back to being a machine. He realises that he’s the only human in a destroyed planet, a destroyed race, that he’s surrounded by all-powerful machines that are performing countless pointless actions, bound by the idiot forces of physics day in and day out. It all comes down on him at once, and it’s such a powerful moment. It really makes you realise that without human beings things aren’t happy and they aren’t sad. They just are. I, for one, think that sucks. I’m very pro-human in that regard. This idea – that humans are more qualitative and machines are more quantitative – is that going to be the case for ever? There’s a big debate. A human being witnesses action A and is horrified, and the human being reacts – he screams, and covers his eyes. Then you have a robot who looks like a human being. It witnesses action A and it screams and it covers its eyes and for all you can tell it’s horrified. The human is feeling emotions, it’s flooded with them. The machine is looking at measurements of the world and then creating the same behaviour. And the question is, is there a difference? I think that there’s a pretty good case that there’s not, that what you see is what matters for all intents and purposes. There’s a thing called the Turing test and it’s one way of judging machine intelligence. And the way the test works is this – if you want to figure out if a machine has human-level intelligence you just talk to it, and if you can’t tell it’s not a human, then who cares? It might as well have human-level intelligence. For all intents and purposes, it does. Everything else is just philosophical mumbo jumbo. Do you think one day you and I could both be robots having this discussion, that I could be interviewing you about humans as a topic? I do think there is going to be a blending between the two. I think that’s another thing that’s really interesting about this short story, which is that these machines rule everything that happens on the earth. If there were still people they could destroy them, they could do whatever they wanted. They’re like gods. But ultimately they’re still tools. They’re just really complicated tools that can make their own decisions. And I think as human beings we’ve always been part of our tools. If you take away all a human being’s tools, then we are just naked, defenceless, clawless, fangless, helpless creatures waiting to be killed by either the elements or other creatures. Human beings simply cannot be separated from their tools. For that reason I think that in the future, our tools will become even more a part of us. Some people will say that this makes us robots. Even so, human beings will take on advanced cognitive and physical abilities that come from using tools. We already do. I’m wearing glasses right now: when the glasses become part of my retina, will that be it? Will I be a robot then? Whenever I look up a fact on the internet from a neural implant, will that make me a robot? Yes, at some point we will be robots talking to each other.

Cross posting from another blog, I thought to share one more little UI / Javascript / CSS experiment. The idea was to come up a few navigation elements which can behave as both floating (fixed positioning) and scrollable at different times. As a user scrolls, these elements feel as they somewhat stick to other parts of the interface (a central container), and hence the name. Please have a look at the quick and dirty prototype and let me know your thoughts. Whether you call it an emerging UI pattern or an experiment, the main reason why I did this was to get a better feel for the interaction in a real life project. I also wanted to convey the idea of such a navigation to the client, and visual representations such as sketches or wireframes just weren’t adequate. Beware, the code is ugly. But then again it’s a prototype, so who cares. :) Credits: Jakub Linowski Posted in Experimental | 12 Comments »

(PSID), the microchip implant company formerly known as, has added a new wrinkle to its business model that is bound to be controversial: Its Health Link electronic medical record service* is being sold "on a paid subscription basis" in a pilot scheme targeted at ship, dock and maritime workers.Health Link provides access to a patient's online medical records It can be used with an implanted microchip and linked to Microsoft (MSFT)'s HealthVault and Google (GOOG) Health The company's press release is slim on details, but it suggests that either ship workers' employers or the employees themselves will be charged a monthly fee to keep the service activated. In effect, PositiveID will hold workers' online health records to ransom: One assumes that if the monthly fee is not paid, access will not be granted. (Why else would anyone feel obligated to pay?) The company said: Upon successful completion and review of the pilot program, PositiveID will offer its Health Link PHR to millions of seafarers and port workers per year, on a paid subscription basis. When sailors become ill, they will visit a doctor at their next port of call. The doctor, typically, does not have access to the sailors' [pre-employment medical examinations], nor does the doctor know the patient's medical history, and will therefore conduct a thorough, costly examination prior to prescribing treatment. This expensive and burdensome repetition of medical procedures can be eliminated by using Health Link, which stores the sailors initial PEME and subsequent medical procedures. Shipworkers are being targeted because they frequently travel far from their regular doctors:You can easily imagine how some companies, eager to save money on healthcare, will insist on Health Link-linked chips for all their employees. If those savings became significant, other companies outside the shipping sector could follow suit... and you can fill in your own Orwellian nightmare from this point. Needless to say, most people will not want to be charged a monthly fee for occasional access to their own records, even if they could be persuaded to walk around with a microchip under their skin. And there's a gaping hole in PositiveID's plan. It would make a lot more sense for shipping companies to upload their workers' pre-employment medical examinations to their own Web sites. Doctors anywhere in the world could access them with a password, perhaps the employees' unique coverage plan number. That would achieve the identical savings proposed by PositiveID but without the added cost of monthly subscriptions. * This item has been corrected to make it clear that PositiveID denies its Health Link service includes microchipping employees. While the two products were once offered together, the company no longer markets them that way, PositiveID says. Related:

0 Australian PM downplays mocking Trump in off-the-record speech Malcolm Turnbull downplayed a leaked video that showed the Australian prime minister mocking President Donald Trump during an off-the-record speech at a charity ball, Fox News reported. >> Read more trending news Turnbull, speaking at Parliament House, made fun of Trump and the Australian government’s poor showing in opinion polls. He later characterized the impersonation as “lighthearted and affectionate channeling,” Fox News reported. In an animated performance, Turnbull told the audience that “Donald and I, we are winning and winning in the polls. We are winning so much. We are winning like we have never won before.” “We are winning in the polls,” Trumbull continued. “We are, we are -- not the fake polls, not the fake polls -- they’re the ones we’re not winning in. We’re winning in the real polls, you know, the online polls. They are so easy to win. “I have this Russian guy, believe me, it’s true, it’s true.” Politics editor Laurie Oakes of 9News reportedly decided to reveal the contents of the video. “The idea of the Press Gallery Committee ... declaring it off the record is just ludicrous,” he told 9News. In a statement, the U.S. Embassy said “We understand that last night’s event is equivalent to our White House Correspondents’ Dinner. We take this with the good humor that was intended.” On Friday, Turnbull said the speech had to be seen in an Australian cultural context. “We don’t take ourselves too seriously,” he told Fox News. “I don’t think it demonstrates that I’m up for ‘Saturday Night Live’ yet.” Australia PM Malcolm Turnbull lampoons Donald Trump in a speech mentioning "the Russian guy" https://t.co/TWxf4xmUR7 pic.twitter.com/I1J26nGJG5 — Bloomberg (@business) June 15, 2017 Turnbull scores some laughs by poking fun at US President Donald Trump. #9Newshttps://t.co/W23N5NGVLU — Nine News Australia (@9NewsAUS) June 15, 2017 © 2019 Cox Media Group.

This article is about the loudspeaker driver. For the defunct retail chain, see Tweeter (store) . For other uses, see Tweeter (disambiguation) Not to be confused with Twitter Magnet Voicecoil Membrane Suspension Cutaway view of a dynamic tweeter with acoustic lens and a dome-shaped membrane. A tweeter or treble speaker is a special type of loudspeaker (usually dome or horn-type) that is designed to produce high audio frequencies, typically from around 2,000 Hz to 20,000 Hz (generally considered to be the upper limit of human hearing). Specialty tweeters can deliver high frequencies up to 100 kHz. The name is derived from the high pitched sounds made by some birds (Tweets), especially in contrast to the low woofs made by many dogs, after which low-frequency drivers are named (woofers). Operation [ edit ] An Ohm speaker with swiveling "egg tweeter". Ohm CAM 16 speaker with "egg tweeter". Nearly all tweeters are electrodynamic drivers using a voice coil suspended within a fixed magnetic field. These designs operate by applying current from the output of an amplifier circuit to a coil of wire called a voice coil. The voice coil produces a varying magnetic field, which works against the fixed magnetic field of a magnet around which the cylindrical voice coil is suspended, forcing the voice coil and the diaphragm attached to it to move. This mechanical movement resembles the waveform of the electronic signal supplied from the amplifier's output to the voice coil. Since the coil is attached to a diaphragm, the vibratory motion of the voice coil transmits to the diaphragm; the diaphragm in turn vibrates the air, thus creating air motions or audio waves, which is heard as high sounds. Modern tweeters are typically different from older tweeters, which were usually small versions of woofers. As tweeter technology has advanced, different design applications have become popular. Many soft dome tweeter diaphragms are thermoformed from polyester film, or silk or polyester fabric that has been impregnated with a polymer resin. Hard dome tweeters are usually made of aluminium, aluminium-magnesium alloys, or titanium. Tweeters are intended to convert an electrical signal into mechanical air movement with nothing added or subtracted, but the process is imperfect, and real-world tweeters involve tradeoffs. Among the challenges in tweeter design and manufacture are: providing adequate damping, to stop the dome's motion rapidly when the signal ends; ensuring suspension linearity, allowing high output at the low end of its frequency range; ensuring freedom from contact with the magnet assembly, keeping the dome centered as it moves; and providing adequate power handling without adding excessive mass. Tweeters can also work in collaboration with the woofers that are responsible for generating the low frequencies or bass.[1] Some tweeters sit outside the main enclosure in their own semi-independent unit. Examples include "super tweeters and the novel "egg tweeter" by Ohm. The latter plugs in and swivels to adjust the soundfield depending on listener position and user preference. The separation from the baffle is considered to be optimal under the theory that the smallest baffle possible is optimal for tweeters.[2] Range [ edit ] Most tweeters are designed to reproduce frequencies up to the formally defined upper limit of the human hearing range (typically listed as 20 kHz); some operate at frequencies up to approximately 30 kHz. Tweeters with a greater upper range have been designed for psychoacoustic testing, for extended-range digital audio such as Super Audio CD intended for audiophiles, for biologists performing research on animal response to sounds, and for ambient sound systems in zoos. Ribbon tweeters have been made that can reproduce 80 kHz[3] and even 100 kHz.[4] Dome materials [ edit ] All dome materials have advantages and disadvantages. Three properties designers look for in domes are low mass, high stiffness and good damping. Celestion were the first manufacturers to fabricate dome tweeters out of a metal, copper. Nowadays other metals such as aluminium, titanium, magnesium, and beryllium, as well as various alloys thereof, are used, being both light and stiff but having low damping; their resonant modes occur above 20 kHz. More exotic materials, such as synthetic diamond, are also being used for their extreme stiffness. Polyethylene terephthalate film and woven silk suffer less ringing, but are not nearly as stiff, which can limit their very high frequency output. In general, smaller dome tweeters provide wider dispersion of sound at the highest frequencies. However, smaller dome tweeters have less radiating area, which limits their output at the lower end of their range; and they have smaller voice coils, which limit their overall power output. Ferrofluid [ edit ] Ferrofluid is a suspension of very small (typically 10 nm) iron oxide magnetic particles in a very low volatility liquid, typically a synthetic oil. A wide range of viscosity and magnetic density variants allow designers to add damping, cooling, or both. Ferrofluid also aids in centering the voice coil in the magnetic gap, reducing distortion. The fluid is typically injected into the magnetic gap and is held in place by the strong magnetic field. If a tweeter has been subjected to elevated power levels, some thickening of the ferrofluid occurs, as a portion of the carrier liquid evaporates. In extreme cases, this can degrade the sound quality and output level of a tweeter, and the fluid must be removed and new fluid installed. Professional sound applications [ edit ] Tweeters designed for sound reinforcement and musical instrument applications are broadly similar to high fidelity tweeters, though they're usually not referred to as tweeters, but as "high frequency drivers". Key design requirement differences are: mountings built for repeated shipping and handling, drivers often mounted to horn structures to provide for higher sound levels and greater control of sound dispersion, and more robust voice coils to withstand the higher power levels typically encountered. High frequency drivers in PA horns are often referred to as "compression drivers" from the mode of acoustic coupling between the driver diaphragm and the horn throat. Various materials are used in the construction of compression driver diaphragms including titanium, aluminium, phenolic impregnated fabric, polyimide and PET film, each having its own characteristics. The diaphragm is glued to a voice coil former, typically made from a different material from the dome, since it must cope with heat without tearing or significant dimensional change. Polyimide film, Nomex, and glassfibre are popular for this application. The suspension may be a continuation of the diaphragm and is glued to a mounting ring, which may fit into a groove, over locating pins, or be fastened with machine screws. The diaphragm is generally shaped like an inverted dome and loads into a series of tapered channels in a central structure called a phase plug, which equalizes the path length between various areas of the diaphragm and the horn throat, preventing acoustic cancellations between different points on the diaphragm surface. The phase plug exits into a tapered tube, which forms the start of the horn itself. This slowly expanding throat within the driver is continued in the horn flare. The horn flare controls the coverage pattern, or directivity, and as an acoustic transformer, adds gain. A professional horn and compression driver combination has an output sensitivity of between 105 and 112 dB/watt/meter. This is substantially more efficient (and less thermally dangerous to a small voice coil and former) than other tweeter construction. Types of tweeters [ edit ] Cone tweeter [ edit ] The cone tweeter from a Marantz 5G loudspeaker Cone tweeters have the same basic design and form as a woofer with optimizations to operate at higher frequencies. The optimizations usually are: a very small and light cone so it can move rapidly; cone materials chosen for stiffness (e.g., ceramic cones in one manufacturer's line), or good damping properties (e.g., paper, silk or coated fabric) or both; a suspension (or spider) that is stiffer than for other drivers—less flexibility is needed for high frequency reproduction; small voice coils (3/4 inch is typical) and light (thin) wire, which also helps the tweeter cone move rapidly. Cone tweeters were popular in older stereo hi-fi speakers designed and manufactured in the 1960s and 1970s as an alternative to the dome tweeter (which was developed in the late 1950s). Cone tweeters today are often relatively cheap, but many of those in the past were of high quality, such as those made by Audax/Polydax, Bozak, CTS, JBL, Tonegen and SEAS. These vintage cone tweeters exhibited very flat frequency response, low distortion, fast transient response, a low resonance frequency and a gentle low-end roll-off, easing crossover design. Typical of the 1960s/1970s-era was the CTS "phenolic ring" cone tweeters, exhibiting flat response from 2,000 to 15,000 Hz, low distortion and fast transient response. The CTS "phenolic ring" tweeter gets its name from the orange-colored edge suspension ring that it has which is made from phenolic. It was used in many makes and models of well-regarded vintage speakers, and was a mid-priced unit. Cone tweeters have a narrower dispersion characteristic that is the same as a cone woofer's. Many designers therefore believed this made them a good match to cone midranges and woofers, allowing for superb stereo imaging. However, the "sweet spot" created by the narrow dispersion of cone tweeters is small. Speakers with cone tweeters offered the best stereo imaging when positioned in the room's corners, a common practice in the 1950s, 1960s and early 1970s. During the 1970s and 1980s, the widespread introduction of higher quality audiophile discs and the advent of the CD caused the cone tweeter to fall out of popularity because cone tweeters seldom extend past 15 kHz. Audiophiles felt that cone tweeters lacked the "airiness" of dome tweeters or other types. Nevertheless, many high-end cone tweeters remained in limited production by Audax, JBL and SEAS until the mid-1980s. Cone tweeters are now rarely used in modern hi-fi usage and are routinely seen in low cost applications such as factory car speakers, compact stereo systems, and boom boxes. Some boutique speaker manufacturers recently have returned to high-end cone tweeters, especially recreations of CTS phenolic ring models, to create a vintage-sounding product. Dome tweeter [ edit ] A dome tweeter is constructed by attaching a voice coil to a dome (made of woven fabric, thin metal or other suitable material), which is attached to the magnet or the top plate via a low compliance suspension. These tweeters typically do not have a frame or basket, but a simple front plate attached to the magnet assembly. Dome tweeters are categorized by their voice coil diameter, and range from 19 mm (0.75 in), through 38 mm (1.5 in). The overwhelming majority of dome tweeters presently used in hi-fi speakers are 25 mm (1 in) in diameter. A variation is the ring radiator in which the 'suspension' of the cone or dome becomes the major radiating element. These tweeters have different directivity characteristics when compared to standard dome tweeters. Piezo tweeter [ edit ] A piezo (or piezo-electric) tweeter contains a piezoelectric crystal coupled to a mechanical diaphragm. An audio signal is applied to the crystal, which responds by flexing in proportion to the voltage applied across the crystal's surfaces, thus converting electrical energy into mechanical. The conversion of electrical pulses to mechanical vibrations and the conversion of returned mechanical vibrations back into electrical energy is the basis for ultrasonic testing. The active element is the heart of the transducer as it converts the electrical energy to acoustic energy, and vice versa. The active element is basically a piece of polarized material (i.e. some parts of the molecule are positively charged, while other parts of the molecule are negatively charged) with electrodes attached to two of its opposite faces. When an electric field is applied across the material, the polarized molecules will align themselves with the electric field, resulting in induced dipoles within the molecular or crystal structure of the material. This alignment of molecules will cause the material to change dimensions. This phenomenon is known as electrostriction. In addition, a permanently polarized material such as quartz (SiO 2 ) or barium titanate (BaTiO 3 ) will produce an electric field when the material changes dimensions as a result of an imposed mechanical force. This phenomenon is known as the piezoelectric effect. Piezo tweeters never get used in high-end audio because of their low fidelity, but they often get used in toys, buzzers,alarms cheap computer or stereo speakers and PA horns.[citation needed] Ribbon tweeter [ edit ] A ribbon tweeter uses a very thin diaphragm (often of aluminum, or perhaps metalized plastic film) that supports a planar coil frequently made by deposition of aluminium vapor, suspended in a powerful magnetic field (typically provided by neodymium magnets) to reproduce high frequencies. The development of ribbon tweeters has more or less followed the development of ribbon microphones. The ribbon is of very lightweight material and so capable of very high acceleration and extended high frequency response. Ribbons have traditionally been incapable of high output (large magnet gaps leading to poor magnetic coupling is the main reason). But higher power versions of ribbon tweeters are becoming common in large-scale sound reinforcement line array systems, which can serve audiences of thousands. They are attractive in these applications since nearly all ribbon tweeters inherently exhibit useful directional properties, with very wide horizontal dispersion (coverage) and very tight vertical dispersion. These drivers can easily be stacked vertically, building a high frequency line array that produces high sound pressure levels much farther away from the speaker locations than do conventional tweeters. Planar-magnetic tweeter [ edit ] Some loudspeaker designers use a planar-magnetic tweeter, sometimes called a quasi-ribbon. Planar magnetic tweeters are generally less expensive than true ribbon tweeters, but are not precisely equivalent as a metal foil ribbon is lighter than the diaphragm in a planar magnetic tweeter and the magnetic structures are different. Usually a thin piece of PET film or plastic with a voice coil wire running numerous times vertically on the material is used. The magnet structure is less expensive than for ribbon tweeters. Electrostatic tweeter [ edit ] A Shackman MHT85 Electrostatic Tweeter. An electrostatic tweeter operates on the same principles as a full-range electrostatic speaker or a pair of electrostatic headphones. This type of speaker employs a thin diaphragm (generally plastic and typically PET film), with a thin conductive coating, suspended between two screens or perforated metal sheets, referred to as stators. The output of the driving amplifier is applied to the primary of a step-up transformer with a center-tapped secondary, and a very high voltage—several hundred to several thousand volts—is applied between the center tap of the transformer and the diaphragm. Electrostatics of this type necessarily include a high voltage power supply to provide the high voltage used. The stators are connected to the remaining terminals of the transformer. When an audio signal is applied to the primary of the transformer, the stators are electrically driven 180 degrees out of phase, alternately attracting and repelling the diaphragm. An uncommon way of driving an electrostatic speaker without a transformer is to connect the plates of a push-pull vacuum tube amplifier directly to the stators, and the high voltage supply between the diaphragm and ground. Electrostatics have reduced even-order harmonic distortion because of their push-pull design. They also have minimal phase distortion. The design is quite old (the original patents date to the 1930s), but occupies a very small segment of the market because of high costs, low efficiency, large size for full range designs, and fragility. AMT tweeter [ edit ] The Air Motion Transformer tweeter works by pushing air out perpendicularly from the pleated diaphragm. Its diaphragm is the folded pleats of film (typically PET film) around aluminium struts held in a strong magnetic field. In past decades, ESS of California produced a series of hybrid loudspeakers using such tweeters, along with conventional woofers, referring to them as Heil transducers after their inventor, Oskar Heil. They are capable of considerable output levels and are rather more sturdy than electrostatics or ribbons, but have similar low-mass moving elements. Most of the current AMT drivers in use today are similar in efficiency and frequency response to the original Oskar Heil designs of the 1970s. Horn tweeter [ edit ] A horn tweeter is any of the above tweeters coupled to a flared or horn structure. Horns are used for two purposes — to control dispersion, and to couple the tweeter diaphragm to the air for higher efficiency. The tweeter in either case is usually termed a compression driver and is quite different from more common types of tweeters (see above). Properly used, a horn improves the off-axis response of the tweeter by controlling (i.e., reducing) the directivity of the tweeter. It can also improve the efficiency of the tweeter by coupling the relatively high acoustic impedance of the driver to the lower impedance of the air. The larger the horn, the lower the frequencies at which it can work, since large horns provide coupling to the air at lower frequencies. There are different types of horns, including radial and constant directivity (CD). Horn tweeters may have a somewhat 'different' sonic signature than simple dome tweeters. Poorly designed horns, or improperly crossed-over horns, have predictable problems in the accuracy of their output, and the load that they present to the amplifier. Perhaps concerned about the image of poorly designed horns, some manufacturers use horn loaded tweeters, but avoid using the term. Their euphemisms include "elliptical aperture" "Semi-horn" and "Directivity controlled". These are, nonetheless, a form of horn loading. Plasma or ion tweeter [ edit ] Because ionized gas is electrically charged and so can be manipulated by a variable electrical field, it is possible to use a small sphere of plasma as a tweeter. Such tweeters are called a "plasma" tweeter or "ion" tweeter. They are more complex than other tweeters (plasma generation is not required in other types), but offer the advantage that the moving mass is optimally low, and so very responsive to the signal input. These types of tweeters are not capable of high output, nor of other than very high frequency reproduction, and so are usually used at the throat of a horn structure to manage usable output levels. One disadvantage is that the plasma arc typically produces ozone, a poison gas, in small quantities as a by-product. Because of this, German-made Magnat "magnasphere" speakers were banned from import to the United States in the 1980s. In the past, the dominant supplier was DuKane near St Louis in the US, who made the Ionovac; also sold in a UK variant as the Ionophane. Electro-Voice made a model for a short time under license from DuKane. These early models were finicky and required regular replacement of the cell in which the plasma was generated (the DuKane unit used a precision machined quartz cell). As a result, they were expensive units in comparison to other designs. Those who have heard the Ionovacs report that, in a sensibly designed loudspeaker system, the highs were 'airy' and very detailed, though high output wasn't possible. In the 1980s, the Plasmatronics speaker also used a plasma tweeter, though the manufacturer did not stay in business very long and very few of these complex units were sold. See also [ edit ]

Tokyo, Japan - "Hot spots" of nuclear radiation still contaminate parts of Fukushima Prefecture, according to findings from the latest Greenpeace radiation monitoring mission near the Daiichi nuclear power plant that experienced a melt down after an earthquake and tsunami in March 2011. Experts from the environmental organisation also claim that authorities have consistently underestimated the amount of contamination and the health risks involved. Greenpeace will use these results to try to persuade local governments with nuclear power plants in their districts to resist lobbying from the central government to have them reactivated. All 50 of Japan's remaining nuclear plants were shut down following the 2011 disaster. Greenpeace began independently monitoring radiation in Fukushima within a few days of the nuclear accident, and it has conducted field trips each year since then. The latest such trip took place from October 24-27. Heinz Smitai, a nuclear physicist, Greenpeace campaigner and participant in the radiation monitoring mission, told foreign journalists at an October 30 press conference in Tokyo that radiation hot spots exist as far as 60 kilometres from the site of the disaster. For instance, one street in front of a hospital in Fukushima City "is quite contaminated", Smitai said, measuring 1.1 microsieverts of radiation per hour. Although this was one of the highest readings, Greenpeace found 70 other places in the city where the amount of radiation recorded exceeded the Ministry of Environment's long-term target of 0.23 microsieverts per hour. A sievert is the standard unit for measuring the risk of radiation absorbed by the body. A millisievert is equal to one-thousandth of a sievert, while a microsievert is one-millionth of a sievert. A typical CT scan can deliver from 2 to 10 millisieverts of radiation, depending on the area being scanned. Radiation 'hot spots' Greenpeace also monitored contamination in Miyakoji and Kawauchi, the first two locations in the 20-kilometre exclusion zone around the Daiichi plant where the government has lifted its evacuation advisory. Nevertheless, Greenpeace found numerous points on roads in these areas that exceeded the target of 0.23 microsieverts per hour. "And when you leave the roads and go into the fields and surrounding forests, the radiation levels go up very strongly," said Jan van de Putte, a radioactivity safety advisor in Greenpeace who also participated in the Fukushima monitoring mission. Most of these areas therefore have "not been decontaminated, and cannot be decontaminated because, for instance, a forest can't be decontaminated, practically speaking", he added. Fukushima residents want to know what the radiation effects are in their local areas. Ritsuo Yoshioka, President of the Japan Functional Safety Laboratory Japan's Ministry of Environment (MOE) disputes Greenpeace's claim that it is underestimating radiation contamination and its risks. It points out that radiation in Fukushima has steadily diminished over time, as indicated by the most recent Nuclear Regulation Authority (NRA) airborne monitoring survey, conducted in December 2013. An MOE spokesperson told Al Jazeera that radiation rates "around Fukushima have significantly decreased [compared to October 2012 NRA survey] due to physical decay, weathering, and decontamination efforts". Critics, however, charge that these results were found by averaging the radiation measurements, meaning that individual "hot spots" such as those Greenpeace claims to have found could go unstated. "There can still be buildups of [radiation doses] higher than the average result," said Ritsuo Yoshioka, an expert in nuclear reactor engineering and safety, and president of the Japan Functional Safety Laboratory. "Fukushima residents want to know what the radiation effects are in their local areas." The government says such a means of testing is already being provided. "At the end of 2013, individual exposure rates measured with individual dosimeters were less than 1 millisievert [annualised] for more than 93 percent of Fukushima City residents," the MOE spokesperson pointed out. Natural decay In dealing with different monitoring methods and their results, it's important to maintain a sense of perspective, Azby Brown, a member of Safecast, told Al Jazeera. Safecast is an apolitical, independent radiation monitoring group made up of volunteers including radiation engineers, software and hardware designers and university professors. "Yes, it's easy to find locations in Fukushima City and elsewhere that are still above 0.23 microsieverts an hour," said Brown. "But in almost every conceivable case, even if nothing is done to clean up a place that currently gives 1 millisievert exposure per year, it will give 0.5 millisieverts or less a year after 30 years, due to natural radioactive decay." On the other hand, Brown agrees that Fukushima residents have justifiable grievances. "While experts on both sides tell me the increased risk of fatal cancer with few exceptions is likely to be less than one percent over their lifetimes, this is not the point. It's the injustice of having this risk thrust upon them, and the turmoil the accident has caused, that matters." Greenpeace, which wants to eliminate all nuclear power, immediately presented its findings to the Kagoshima prefectural government. Kagoshima, located in the southernmost part of the island of Kyushu, is host to the Sendai nuclear power plant. Gearing up for a fight In September the plant's two reactors were declared safe to operate the first in the country to be so designated by Japan's Nuclear Regulation Authority, after the plant met strict new safety criteria. As a result, Kagoshima has been the focus of lobbying by the central government on the one hand and by organisations opposing it, like Greenpeace, on the other. The central government wants to restart the Sendai plant and others, to cut down on expensive natural gas and oil imports and diversify the country's energy mix. But antinuclear groups say the risks are unacceptably high, pointing to what happened in Fukushima. After debating the issue, the Kagoshima prefectural assembly voted on November 7 to restart the plant, which is operated by Kyushu Electric Power Company. The yes vote echoed a similar decision a week earlier by the Satsuma Sendai assembly, which hosts the plant. In a press conference following his decision, Kagoshima Governor Yuichiro Ito said that after considering every possible factor, "restarting the plant had to happen" citing Japan's limited natural resources and the need to keep industry moving. NHK, Japan's public radio and TV broadcaster, conducted a phone survey on the subject from October 31 to November 3. In Satsuma Sendai 49 percent approved, while 44 percent disapproved. But in the surrounding areas only 34 percent approved, with 58 percent opposed. In the rest of the country, the figures stood at 32 percent for, versus 57 percent against. Yoshioka, the safety expert, said groups opposed to reactivating nuclear plants in their respective areas would be able to argue their cases more strongly if they banded together. He mentioned that in Hakodate, the city assembly filed suit in April to stop the construction of the new Oma nuclear plant, which is 23 km away in a different prefecture. With operators of Japan's 48 other nuclear reactors also fighting for their plants to be reactivated, it's clear this battle has only just begun.

A visitor to the "NEXT Berlin" conference tries out Google Glass on April 24, 2013 in Berlin. A group of US lawmakers has asked Google to answer questions on the privacy implications and possible "misuse of information" of its Google Glass project. A group of US lawmakers has asked Google to answer questions on the privacy implications and possible "misuse of information" of its Google Glass project. Eight lawmakers in the Congressional Privacy Caucus sent a letter Thursday saying they are "curious whether this new technology could infringe on the privacy of the average American." The lawmakers asked Google to provide information about how it would collect and use data from the Internet-linked eyewear, which has been tested by a small group of users and is expected to hit the market later this year. Caucus chair Joe Barton said in a statement the lawmakers "are concerned about possible misuse of information gathered by Google Glass." "When using Google Glass, is it true that this product would be able to use facial recognition technology to unveil personal information about whomever and even some inanimate objects that the user is viewing?" the letter asked. "Would a user be able to request such information? Can a non-user or human subject opt out of this collection of personal data? If so, how? If not, why not?" The lawmakers also asked whether Google Glass has the capacity to store any data, if it will have user authentication and whether any privacy protections for non-users would be in place. Google has faced privacy investigations on both sides of the Atlantic. European officials are pressing the Internet giant on data protection and privacy. In the US, Google has been fined for collecting people's personal data without authorization as it combed neighborhoods for its Street View service. Glass connects to the Internet using Wi-Fi hot spots or, more typically, by being wirelessly tethered to mobile phones. Pictures or video are shared through the Google Plus social network. Google co-founder and chief Larry Page depicted Glass this week as part of an ongoing effort to get computers "out of the way" so people can focus on lives enriched by what the Internet has to offer. The letter was signed by Barton and Representatives John Barrow, Steve Chabot, Henry Johnson, Walter Jones, Richard Nugent, Bobby Rush and Loretta Sanchez.

In fact, they often drive home important messages. “They do a wonderful job of emphasizing the importance of caring for your skin, sun protection and establishing a skincare routine,” said Dr. Azadeh Shirazi, a board-certified dermatologist specializing in medical, surgical and cosmetic dermatology based in La Jolla, California (@skinbydrazi on TikTok). “Watching them share their personal experience or journey with a particular product or routine can be helpful for consumers, but they don’t represent scientific evidence.” But some are reckless. So how can you spot a knowledgeable TikTok creator? You can check their bios to see if they’re a licensed esthetician or dermatologist, give their name a quick search on Google to verify, and even double-check that they’re board-certified by the American Board of Dermatology. Also, pay attention to whether the creator cites scientific evidence in their content. “I share scientific studies and highlight clinical trials that show support for a trending hack,” Shirazi said. “Doing reaction videos is helpful to decipher what’s fact and what’s fiction, noting the lack of evidence behind information circulating on social media. You have to be honest, transparent, and deliver valuable information.” Advertisement Many dermatologists on social media make content specifically to combat dangerous trends, and to reach those who may not have a skin specialist in their area. “As dermatologists and medical experts, we have a social responsibility to maintain a voice on social platforms. Otherwise, complete dependency and naive trust in skinfluencers will result in more and more misinformation,” Shirazi said. “The way I see it is I’m here to educate, they’re here to influence.” Shirazi’s most important piece of skin care advice is? If your skin concerns aren’t clearing up, find a doctor you can trust — offline. Skinfluencers who know their stuff “Relying on [skinfluencers] for education can prevent people from seeking real medical advice and attention. I think it’s important to always check with a medical professional before incorporating any recommendations from someone who is not a true expert with the necessary training and experience,” she explained. Along with Shirazi, here are some TikTok skinfluencers who are experts in their field, and worth a follow. Advertisement Dr. Camille Howard-Verovic (@dermbeautydoc) Howard is a board-certified dermatologist, founder of natural hair care line Girl+Hair, and an all-around gem to have in your TikTok feed (she brings the humor and the hot skin care tips). Check out her account for all types of advice, from how to color correct your mineral sunscreen to getting rid of blackheads in your ears. Dr. Suchismita Paul (@drpaulderm) Paul is a board-certified, Harvard-educated dermatologist, so to say she’s more qualified than the average skinfluencer is an understatement. She’s especially good at explaining how to try popular trends, like skin cycling, effectively. Her page is also an amazing resource for tips on caring for brown skin, like which exfoliants and retinol get her approval. Dr. Joyce Park (@teawithmd) Advertisement Park is a board-certified dermatologist whose account is the destination for all things SPF, whether it’s how to reapply at the pool, whether to use a stick, spray or lotion formulas or her favorite sunscreens for the face. She also posts plenty about skincare trends on TikTok, like whether or not you should use deodorant as a primer. Dr. Muneeb Shah (@dermdoctor) If you like a side of relatability with your skin care insights, Shah is the skinfluencer for you. He’s a practicing dermatologist who isn’t afraid to post the occasional silly video. But most often, you’ll see him reacting to skinfluencer trends, breaking down which ingredients are right for which skin types and explaining skin conditions. Dr. Adeline Kikam (@brownskinderm) Kikam is another board-certified dermatologist who has great content for followers just getting into skincare (like how to build your skincare routine) and videos addressing common complaints, like dry skin in the winter. But her focus is on caring for the skin of Black and brown people, with lots to watch about finding sunscreens with no white cast, why you still need SPF and natural hair and scalp care. Advertisement Dr. Chris Tomassian (@dr.tomassian) Tomassian has 1.6 million followers for a reason — his videos are quick, to the point and easy to digest (essentially, his account is the best to reference when you’re standing in Target and not sure what to buy for your hormonal acne). He makes product recommendations and addresses common concerns. You can find answers to so many questions with a quick scroll through his archive. Dr. Angelo Landriscina (@dermangelo) If your “For You” page involves anything skin care, you probably recognize this board-certified dermatologist. He’s a self-proclaimed “derm daddy” and posts reaction videos to other skinfluencers’ routines, product recommendations and more. This is the creator for you if you want a “yay” or “nay” on trending topics. Dr. Lindsey Zubritsky (@dermguru) Advertisement Zubritsky is a board-certified dermatologist who posts lots of “if you have this, try that” videos, identifying common skin issues and making product recommendations to help. She also shares tips on caring for your skin like a dermatologist, busting myths and sharing other advice you want to hear.

According to Mr. Basiago, elites already had a fully operational Nicola Tesla’s teleportation capability in 1967-68, and by 1969-70, was actively training a cadre of gifted and talented American schoolchildren, including himself, to become America’s first generation of “chrononauts” or time-space explorers. This training, he said, culminated in 1981, when, as a 19-year-old, he teleported to Mars, first by himself after being prepared for the trip by a government officer. Both trips, Mr. Basiago said, were made via a “jump room” located at a government facility. The apparent purpose of the trips to Mars was to familiarize him with Mars because. Government officials wanted him to visit Mars and experience its conditions first-hand. Andrew D. Basiago, 47, is an American lawyer, writer, and environmental scholar. He was born on September 18, 1961 in Morristown, New Jersey, the youngest of five children, and grew up in New Jersey and California. Mr. Basiago was one of the “whiz kids” who served from 1969 to 1972 in DARPA’s time-space exploration program, Project Pegasus. A past member of Mensa, the high IQ society, he holds five degrees, including a BA in History from UCLA and a Master of Philosophy from the University of Cambridge. While an undergraduate at UCLA, Andy became a journalist and a protégé of editor Norman Cousins of the Saturday Review, who once compared him to Robert Hutchins and nominated him to be the Editor of the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists. In the wide-ranging, three-hour interview, Mr. Basiago termed the cover-up of the Mars colony “Marsgate” and called for a Congressional investigation of the U.S. presence on Mars, with its emphasis on military occupation rather than diplomatic engagement of the indigenous human society living in underground cities beneath the surface of Mars. During an interview , with Alfred Lambremont Webre , both Andrew D. Basiago and Laura Magdalene Eisenhower (ex-U.S. President Dwight D Eisenhower’s Granddaughter) discussed their opposition to the achontic ideologies guiding the secret Mars colony. These include fear, secrecy, psychological manipulation of recruits, and the abuse of quantum access technologies and other covert methods to identify potential colonists. Mr. Basiago speculated that the Mars colony is being staffed by individuals who descend from specific Aryan bloodlines that contain a Martian genetic substrate and that do not represent the genetic diversity of the entire human race on Earth. Ms. Eisenhower, agreeing, also was exposed to and understood the archetypal aspects and significance of it. They suggested that this policy be reconsidered.

Apply throttling to a multi-page crawler | R Course Outline Session Ready Exercise Apply throttling to a multi-page crawler The goal of this exercise is to get the coordinates of earth's three highest mountain peaks, together with their names. You'll get this information from their corresponding Wikipedia pages, in real-time. In order not to stress Wikipedia too much, you'll apply throttling using the slowly() function. After each call to a Wikipedia page, your program should wait a small amount of time. Three pages of Wikipedia might not be that much, but the principle holds for any amount of scraping: be gentle and add wait time between requests. You'll find the name of the peak within an element with the ID "firstHeading", while the coordinates are inside an element with class "geo-dms", which is a descendant of an element with ID "coordinates". purrr has been preloaded and the URLs are contained in mountain_wiki_pages.

PESHAWAR, Pakistan (Reuters) - Pakistani Taliban gunmen shot dead a prominent Sikh figure and opposition party worker on Friday, authorities and the militants said, in the latest attack on a religious minority in the majority-Muslim nation. Soran Singh was a leading figure in Pakistan’s tiny Sikh community and an adviser to a provincial chief minister, representing cricketer-turned-politician Imran Khan’s opposition Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) party. Singh was attacked by gunmen in his native village in the Buner valley in northwest Pakistan, local police officer Shaukat Khan said. Pakistani Taliban spokesman Mohammad Khurasani said the Taliban carried out the killing, and would continue attacks until their version of strict Islamic law was established in Pakistan. The PTI said Islam’s laws and the Pakistani constitution provided for the protection of religious minorities. “The brutal killing of Soran Singh is extremely saddening,” Khan said in a statement, describing Singh as a patriotic Pakistani and loyal party worker. Sikhs make up less than 1 percent of Pakistan’s 190 million people. Many see Pakistan as the place where their religion began.

In what sense, and to what extent, is translation used in contexts as different as the transfer of meaning from one language (or medium) to the other, the concept of knowledge translation, and the process of protein synthesis? How will a nuanced understanding of translation help us advance in literary and linguistic studies as well as in clinical research? In a newly-launched seminar series taking place at The Queen’s College, Oxford, we will explore these questions in an interdisciplinary way, aiming to endorse, promote and even inspire translation outside our area of expertise, and our common understanding. All welcome and no booking is required. Read the full programme here. Due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Translating Illness events scheduled to take place in May and June 2020 have been postponed. Please check the Translating COVID-19 video conversations, if you would like to hear about the connections between translation and the 2020 global health crisis. Translating COVID-19: Video Conversations Translating COVID-19 is an independent yet associated stream of research born within the Translating Illness programme. It was conceived and activated as an emergency response to the Coronavirus global pandemic in 2020. Dr Marta Arnaldi joins in (video) conversation experts in fields as different as translation studies and epidemiology, in order to explore forms, metaphors, and practices of translation at the time of a global health crisis.

Past Events 17 February 2020 - Professor Trish Greenhalgh “The Crucifixion of Brother Peter”: Moral Claims and Religious Imagery in Two Competing Narratives about the Cochrane Collaboration In 2018, a so-called crisis developed in the Cochrane network of systematic reviewers. It was widely depicted in terms of two competing narratives – [a] “bad behaviour” by one individual and [b] scientific and moral decline within Cochrane. This presentation will report the attempt of an interdisciplinary group of scholars (from medicine, sociology, critical management studies and science and technology studies) to distil insights on the structural, ethical and linguistic issues underpinning the crisis, without taking a definitive position on the accuracy of either narrative. Having framed the conflict as primarily philosophical and political rather than methodological, the author will use the seminar series’ theme of ‘translation’ to illustrate how the scholars on both poles of this divide might harness their tensions productively. Trish Greenhalgh is Professor of Primary Care Health Sciences and Fellow of Green Templeton College, University of Oxford. She is Co-Director of the Interdisciplinary Research in Health Sciences (IRIHS) Unit, a programme of research at the interface between social sciences and medicine. She was awarded the OBE for Services to Medicine in 2001 and made a Fellow of the UK Academy of Medical Sciences in 2014. 20 January 2020 - Inaugural lecture by Professor Chas Bountra We are not good at translating lab science into new medicines for patients The discovery of “pioneer medicines” (i.e. those acting via novel molecular targets) has proven to be an immensely complex, long term, expensive and high risk endeavour. Despite formidable investments by the pharmaceutical industry and public/ charitable funders, over the past few decades in both infrastructure and technology, the success rates have remained low. During his presentation, Prof. Bountra discussed ways in which we can pool resources to share risk, reduce duplication, improve translation, minimise patient harm, and help industry discover new medicines for society. Chas Bountra is Professor of Translational Medicine at the Nuffield Department of Medicine, University of Oxford. He is Co-Director of the Oxford Martin Programme on Affordable Medicines and has been made Oxford’s new Pro Vice-Chancellor, Innovation. Listen to the podcast of Prof. Bountra's lecture here.

Dear friends, Just over a year ago, on May 21, 2012, a celebration was held to mark the selection of the Berkeley campus as the site of the Simons Institute for the Theory of Computing. The Institute is funded by a ten-year grant from the Simons Foundation, supplemented by substantial support from the Berkeley campus including the provision of Calvin Lab as the physical site of the Institute. The Institute is envisioned as a center of research for the worldwide scientific community in theoretical computer science and related fields. It will benefit from the excellence of the Berkeley intellectual environment, but will also engage with other leading academic centers around the world and with industrial research centers in Silicon Valley and beyond. In a typical semester the Institute will operate two research programs, with about thirty-five visiting scientists in each program, including about twenty senior scientists, eight postdoctoral-level Simons-Berkeley Research Fellows, and a number of students. The programs will address the theoretical foundations of computer science, as well as phenomena in the physical, biological, social and engineering sciences that can be viewed through the lens of computation. The scientific programs of the Institute are coordinated by Associate Director Alistair Sinclair, Interim Senior Scientist Christos Papadimitriou and myself in conjunction with our Scientific Advisory Board, and the operational aspects are ably handled by Managing Director Kristin Kane and our outstanding staff Caroline Allum, Leisa Lei, Ivan Ordonez, Judy Tam, Dorothee Unger-Lee, Cory Welch and Tessa Vierk. From February 19 to 22, 2013 the Institute held its first scientific meeting: a planning workshop on "Quantum Hamiltonian Complexity", in preparation for a Spring, 2014 program on that topic. The Institute's first semester of full-scale operation will commence in August 2013, by which time the renovation of Calvin Lab will have been completed and our staff will be ready to welcome about seventy scientific visitors. It will be an attractive, light-filled environment including a large auditorium and large interaction spaces suitable for informal scientific discussion. Fall 2013 will feature programs on "Real Analysis in Computer Science" and "Theoretical Foundations of Big Data Analysis," as described in an accompanying article. The programs for Spring 2014 are "Quantum Hamiltonian Complexity" and "Evolutionary Biology and the Theory of Computing." We received a flood of applications for the 2013-14 Simons-Berkeley Research Fellowships and were able to assemble a very strong group of participants for each of the programs. Each program will include an initial "boot camp" providing the scientific background of the program, about three week-long workshops, and a retrospective meeting. Registration for these meetings will be open to the public as space permits. The Institute has cooperative arrangements with a number of academic and industrial organizations. We are planning a range of joint cultural and educational activities with the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute in Berkeley. We are pleased to welcome Google and Microsoft as Founding Industrial Partners and to acknowledge their support for Simons Fellows. Some Simons Fellows are appointed jointly with the Lawrence Berkeley National Lab and Tsinghua University, Microsoft Research India, the Israeli Centers of Research Excellence (I-CORE) and the Max Planck Institute for Informatics in Germany, and we have received financial support for our programs from the National Science Foundation and the Community Computing Consortium. Finally, we aspire to be a contributor to the scientific life of our community. All of our readers are invited to sign up for workshops and lectures at the Institute. From time to time we will present events aimed at conveying developments in our field to a general scientific audience. The first of these events, described in an accompanying article, was a Symposium on Visions of the Theory of Computing, held from May 29 to May 31, 2013. It had a phenomenal cast of speakers, and I enjoyed seeing many of you there! Richard M.

In addition to the flags of individual Societies and the ICRC, the Movement introduced its own multi-lingual logo in Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian, and Spanish in 2016. Comité international de la croix rouge) The emblem of the International Committee of the Red Cross (French: The emblems of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, under the Geneva Conventions, are to be placed on humanitarian and medical vehicles and buildings, and to be worn by medical personnel and others carrying out humanitarian work, to protect them from military attack on the battlefield. There are four such emblems, three of which are in use: the Red Cross, the Red Crescent, and the Red Crystal. The Red Lion and Sun is also a recognized emblem, but is no longer in use. There were also prior disputes concerning the use of a Red Star of David by Magen David Adom (MDA), the Israeli first-aid society; the Red Crystal was created in response to these disputes, thus enabling the admission of MDA to the movement. In popular culture, the red cross symbol came to be a recognisable generic emblem for medicine, commonly associated with first aid, medical services, products, or professionals; it has been unlawfully used in toys, movies, and video games, outside its defined context. After objections from the movement, derivatives and alternatives have come to be used instead. Additionally, Johnson & Johnson has registered the symbol for their medicinal products. The appropriation of the symbol has led to further irritation due to the practice of hospitals, first aid teams, and ski patrols in the United States reversing the symbol to a white cross on a red background – so undoing the original idea of the Red Cross emblem, namely reversing the Swiss flag – thus inappropriately suggesting an affiliation with Switzerland.[1] Symbols of the movement [ edit ] Protection symbols vs. organizational emblems [ edit ] The symbols described below have two distinctively different meanings. On one hand, the visual symbols of the Red Cross, the Red Crescent, the Red Lion with Sun and the Red Crystal serve as protection markings in armed conflicts, a denotation which is derived from and defined in the Geneva Conventions. This is called the protective use of the symbols. On the other hand, these symbols are used as distinctive logos by those organizations which are part of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement. This is the indicative use of the emblems, a meaning which is defined in the statutes of the International Movement and partly in the third Additional Protocol. As a protection symbol, they are used in armed conflicts to mark persons and objects (buildings, vehicles, etc.) which are working in compliance with the rules of the Geneva Conventions. In this function, they can also be used by organizations and objects which are not part of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, for example the medical services of the armed forces, civilian hospitals, and civil defense units. As protection symbols, these emblems should be used without any additional specification (textual or otherwise) and in a prominent manner which makes them as visible and observable as possible, for example by using large white flags bearing the symbol. Four of these symbols, namely the Red Cross, the Red Crescent, the Red Lion with Sun and the Red Crystal, are defined in the Geneva Conventions and their Additional Protocols as symbols for protective use. When used as an organizational logo, these symbols only indicate that persons, vehicles, buildings, etc. which bear the symbols belong to a specific organization which is part of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement (like the ICRC, the International Federation or the national Red Cross and Red Crescent societies). In this case, they should be used with an additional specification (for example "American Red Cross") and not be displayed as prominently as when used as protection symbols. Three of these symbols, namely the Red Cross, the Red Crescent and the Red Crystal, can be used for indicative purposes by national societies for use in their home country or abroad. In addition to that, the Red Shield of David (Star of David) can be used by the Israel society Magen David Adom for indicative purposes within Israel, and, pending the approval of the respective host country, in combination with the Red Crystal when working abroad. Red Cross [ edit ] The Red Cross symbol The Red Cross on white background was the original protection symbol declared at the 1864 Geneva Convention. The ideas to introduce a uniform and neutral protection symbol as well as its specific design originally came from Dr. Louis Appia, a Swiss surgeon, and Swiss General Henri Dufour, founding members of the International Committee. The red cross symbolizes as an identifier for medical personnel during wartime. The Red Cross is defined as a protection symbol in Article 7 of the 1864 Geneva Convention, Chapter VII ("The distinctive emblem") and Article 38 of the 1949 Geneva Convention ("For the Amelioration of the Condition of the Wounded and Sick in Armed Forces in the Field"). There is an unofficial agreement within the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement that the shape of the cross should be a cross composed of five squares.[2] However, regardless of the shape, any Red Cross on white background should be valid and must be recognized as a protection symbol in conflict. Of the 190 National Societies which are currently recognized by the ICRC, 154 are using the Red Cross as their official organization emblem. Relationship to the flag of Switzerland [ edit ] The Swiss flag According to the ICRC, the emblem adopted was formed by reversing the colours of the Swiss flag of Switzerland.[3] This was officially recorded in the 1906 revision of the Convention.[4] However, according to jurist and Red Cross historian Pierre Boissier, no clear evidence of this origin has been found; the concept that the design was chosen to compliment the country in which the convention at which it was adopted was held, was also promoted later to counter the objections of Turkey that the flag was a Christian symbol.[5] Conversely, there is no evidence that the emblem of the Red Cross was not formed by reversing the colours of the Swiss flag. Red Crescent [ edit ] The Red Crescent symbol During the Russo-Turkish War from 1876 to 1878, the Ottoman Empire used a Red Crescent instead of the Red Cross because its government believed that the cross would alienate its Muslim soldiers. When asked by the ICRC in 1877, Russia committed to fully respect the sanctity of all persons and facilities bearing the Red Crescent symbol, followed by a similar commitment from the Ottoman government to respect the Red Cross. After this de facto assessment of equal validity to both symbols, the ICRC declared in 1878 that it should be possible in principle to adopt an additional official protection symbol for non-Christian countries. The Red Crescent was formally recognized in 1929 when the Geneva Conventions were amended (Article 19).[3] After the collapse of the Ottoman Empire, the Red Crescent was first used by its successor nation Turkey, followed by Egypt. From its official recognition to today, the Red Crescent became the organizational emblem of nearly every national society in countries with majority Muslim populations. The national societies of some countries such as Pakistan (1974), Malaysia (1975), or Bangladesh (1989) have officially changed their name and emblem from the Red Cross to the Red Crescent. The Red Crescent is used by 33 of the 190 recognized societies worldwide. Red Crystal [ edit ] The third protocol emblem, also known as the Red Crystal The introduction of an additional neutral protection symbol had been under discussion for a number of years, with the Red Crystal (previously referred to as the Red Lozenge or Red Diamond) being the most popular proposal. However, amending the Geneva Conventions to add a new protection symbol requires a diplomatic conference of all 192 signatory states to the Conventions. The Swiss government organized such a conference to take place on December 5–6, 2005, to adopt a third additional protocol to the Geneva Conventions introducing the Red Crystal as an additional symbol with equal status to the Red Cross or Red Crescent. Following an unplanned extension of the conference until December 7, the protocol was adopted after a vote successfully achieved the required two-thirds majority. From the countries which attended the conference, 98 voted in favour and 27 against the protocol, while 10 countries abstained from voting. In the third Protocol the new symbol is referred to as "the third Protocol emblem".[6] The rules for the use of this symbol, based on the third additional protocol to the Geneva Conventions, are the following: Within its own national territory , a national society can use either of the recognized symbols alone, or incorporate any of these symbols or a combination of them into the Red Crystal. Furthermore, a national society can choose to display a previously and effectively used symbol, after officially communicating this symbol to the state parties of the Geneva Conventions through Switzerland as the depositary state prior to the adoption of the proposed third additional protocol. , a national society can use either of the recognized symbols alone, or incorporate any of these symbols or a combination of them into the Red Crystal. Furthermore, a national society can choose to display a previously and effectively used symbol, after officially communicating this symbol to the state parties of the Geneva Conventions through Switzerland as the depositary state prior to the adoption of the proposed third additional protocol. For indicative use on foreign territory , a national society which does not use one of the recognized symbols as its emblem has to incorporate its unique symbol into the Red Crystal, based on the previously mentioned condition about communicating its unique symbol to the state parties of the Geneva Conventions. , a national society which does not use one of the recognized symbols as its emblem has to incorporate its unique symbol into the Red Crystal, based on the previously mentioned condition about communicating its unique symbol to the state parties of the Geneva Conventions. For protective use, only the symbols recognized by the Geneva Conventions can be used. Specifically, those national societies which do not use one of the recognized symbols as their emblem have to use the Red Crystal without incorporation of any additional symbol. On 22 June 2006 the ICRC announced that the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement adopted the Red Crystal as an additional emblem for use by the national societies. The ICRC also announced the recognition of the Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) and the Israeli National Society, Magen David Adom (MDA).[7] On 14 January 2007, the third additional protocol entered into force. Red Lion with Sun [ edit ] The Red Lion with Sun symbol From 1924 to 1980, Iran used a Red Lion with Sun symbol for its national society, the Red Lion and Sun Society, based on the flag and emblem of Iran. The Red Lion with Sun was formally recognized as a protection symbol in 1929, together with the Red Crescent. Despite the country's shift to the Red Crescent in 1980, Iran explicitly maintains the right to use the symbol. Red Shield of David [ edit ] Emblem of Magen David Adom for indicative use within Israel The emblem for Magen David Adom for indicative use when operating abroad Magen David Adom, the national society of Israel, has used the Red Shield of David as its organization emblem since its foundation. The Red Shield of David was initially proposed as an addition to the Red Cross, Red Crescent, and Red Lion with Sun in 1931. The proposal was rejected by the ICRC, like the Mehrab-e-Ahmar (Red Archway) symbol of the national aid society of Afghanistan four years later, as well as a wide range of other proposals, due to concerns about symbol proliferation.[8] Israel again tried to establish the emblem as a third protection symbol in the context of the Geneva Conventions, but a respective proposal was narrowly defeated when the Geneva Conventions were adopted by governments in 1949. As the Red Shield of David is not a recognized protection symbol under the Geneva Conventions, Magen David Adom's recognition as a national society by the ICRC was long delayed. It was not until 2006 that the ICRC officially recognized Magen David Adom.[9] The adoption of the third protocol emblem paved the way for the recognition and admission of Magen David Adom as a full member of the International Federation, as the rules of the third protocol allow it to continue using the Red Shield of David when operating within Israel and provide a solution for its missions abroad. Though the organization only recently gained official recognition, it took part in many international activities, in cooperation with both the ICRC and the Federation, prior to its official recognition. Other proposed symbols [ edit ] Various other countries have also lobbied for alternative symbols, which have been rejected because of concerns of territorialism.[8][10] In 1922, a Red Swastika Society was formed in China during the Warlord era. The swastika is used in East Asia as a symbol to represent Dharma or Buddhism in general. While the organization has organized philanthropic relief projects (both domestic and international), as a sectarian religious body it is ineligible for recognition from the International Committee. Its headquarters are now in Taiwan. Mottos and mission statements [ edit ] The original motto of the International Committee of the Red Cross was Inter Arma Caritas ("In War, Charity"). This Christian-spirited slogan was amended in 1961 with the neutral motto Per Humanitatem ad Pacem or "With humanity, towards peace". While Inter Arma Caritas is still the primary motto of the ICRC (as per Article 3 of the ICRC statutes), Per Humanitatem ad Pacem is the primary motto of the Federation (Article 1 of the Constitution of the Federation). Both organizations acknowledge the alternative motto, and together both slogans serve as the combined motto of the International Movement. The mission statement of the International Movement as formulated in the "Strategy 2010" document of the Federation is to improve the lives of vulnerable people by mobilizing the power of humanity. From 1999 to 2004, the common slogan for all activities of the International Movement was The Power of Humanity. In December 2003, the 28th International Conference in Geneva adopted the conference motto Protecting Human Dignity as the new Movement slogan. Annual commemoration [ edit ] The 16th International Conference which convened in London in 1938 officially decided to make May 8, the birthday of Henry Dunant, as the official annual commemoration and celebration day of the Movement. Since 1984, the official name of the celebration day has been "World Red Cross and Red Crescent Day". Museums [ edit ] In Solferino, a small museum describes the history of the Battle of Solferino and of the Risorgimento, the long and bloody Italian struggle for independence and unity. In the Ossario di Solferino (Solferino Ossuary) in close proximity to the museum, a moving display shows the horrors of war. Inside the chapel, 1,413 skulls and many more bones from thousands of French and Austrian troops who died during the battle are shown. Solferino is also host to the International Red Cross Memorial inaugurated in 1959 on the centennial of the Battle of Solferino. The memorial contains stone plaques identifying each recognized national society. In Castiglione delle Stiviere, a small town near Solferino, the International Museum of the Red Cross was also opened in 1959. Moreover, another museum, the International Red Cross Museum stands in Geneva in close proximity to the headquarters of the ICRC. Finally, in the Swiss village of Heiden, the Henry Dunant Museum was opened to preserve the memory and legacy of Dunant himself. Use of the emblems [ edit ] Example of unauthorized use of the Red Cross symbol, in this case, for an appliance repair company As specified by the Geneva Conventions, the four recognized emblems are to be used only to denote the following: facilities for the care of injured and sick armed forces members; armed forces medical personnel and equipment; military chaplains; International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement organizations such as the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC), and the 190 national Red Cross and Red Crescent societies. In order to ensure universal respect for the emblems, the Geneva Conventions obliged their signatories to forbid any other use of the names and emblems in wartime and peacetime. Nevertheless, the illegal usage of the emblem is widespread and it is often used as a general symbol to indicate first aid, medical supplies and civilian medical services especially in walk-in clinics. Such uses appear in movies (a notable example is The Living Daylights,[13][14] wherein narcotics were disguised as Red Cross care packages, as a plot device), on television, and in computer software and games. Service companies, such as those for car repair or lawn maintenance, tout themselves as service "doctors" and incorporate medical symbols to promote themselves. Prior to 1973, ambulances in the United States and elsewhere in the Western Hemisphere were typically marked with a safety orange cross, differing from the red cross only in its hue. Toys and paintings of ambulances commonly ignored even that nuance, instead using a red cross. After protests from the American Red Cross that the safety orange cross was insufficiently distinguishable from the protected Red Cross symbol, the U.S. Department of Transportation developed the blue Star of Life as a replacement for the safety orange cross. The blue Star of Life has since been adopted throughout much of the world on ambulances and in other related applications. In 2006, the Canadian Red Cross issued a press release asking video game makers to stop using the red cross in their games; it is an especially common sight to see first aid kits and other items which restore the player character's health marked with a red cross.[15] In order to avoid this conflict, a green cross is often used as a generic alternative. Pre-existing trademarks are protected in the implementing legislation of other countries, including Australia,[16] New Zealand,[17] and the United Kingdom and its dependencies.[18] In many countries, it is a violation of the rule of law to seize intellectual property lawfully created prior to a ban without compensating its owner through eminent domain, with limited exceptions for offensive or dangerous uses. (For example, a Red Cross on a building—even a Johnson & Johnson ("J&J") building—conveys a potentially false and dangerous impression of military presence in the area to enemy aircraft, although the building itself would not be attacked; thus the U.S. reservations to the 1949 Geneva Conventions, as noted below, effectively ban that use even by J&J.) In recognition of this fact, Protocol III expressly preserves most pre-2005 trademarks containing the Red Crystal, as long as they cannot be confused with military uses. Trademarks from after 2005 bearing the emblem are banned as there is no longer an issue of retroactive law. International protection of images [ edit ] The protected status of these images was established in the First Geneva Convention which states:[19] Art. 44. With the exception of the cases mentioned in the following paragraphs of the present Article, the emblem of the red cross on a white ground and the words "Red Cross" or " Geneva Cross " may not be employed, either in time of peace or in time of war, except to indicate or to protect the medical units and establishments, the personnel and material protected by the present Convention and other Conventions dealing with similar matters. The same shall apply to the emblems mentioned in Article 38, second paragraph, in respect of the countries which use them. The National Red Cross Societies and other societies designated in Article 26 shall have the right to use the distinctive emblem conferring the protection of the Convention only within the framework of the present paragraph. Art. 44. (cont.) Furthermore, National Red Cross (Red Crescent, Red Lion and Sun) Societies may, in time of peace, in accordance with their national legislation, make use of the name and emblem of the Red Cross for their other activities which are in conformity with the principles laid down by the International Red Cross Conferences. When those activities are carried out in time of war, the conditions for the use of the emblem shall be such that it cannot be considered as conferring the protection of the Convention; the emblem shall be comparatively small in size and may not be placed on armlets or on the roofs of buildings. Art. 53 furthermore declares all present and future unapproved usage of said symbols illegal, even when they had been used previously. Signatories of the contract would have had three years after signing to enforce this. As a reference to Switzerland, Article 53 also forbids the use of its flag as a trademark, for advertising or other similar purposes. Use of the emblems in Canada [ edit ] The Red Cross, Red Crescent, Red Crystal, and Red Lion and Sun emblems are protected under the Trade-marks Act, section 9(1), paragraphs f, g, g.1, and h, respectively:[20] Prohibited marks 9 (1) No person shall adopt in connection with a business, as a trade-mark or otherwise, any mark consisting of, or so nearly resembling as to be likely to be mistaken for, [...] (f) the emblem of the Red Cross on a white ground, formed by reversing the federal colours of Switzerland and retained by the Geneva Convention for the Protection of War Victims of 1949 as the emblem and distinctive sign of the Medical Service of armed forces and used by the Canadian Red Cross Society, or the expression “Red Cross” or “Geneva Cross”; (g) the emblem of the Red Crescent on a white ground adopted for the same purpose as specified in paragraph (f); (g.1) the third Protocol emblem — commonly known as the “Red Crystal” — referred to in Article 2, paragraph 2 of Schedule VII to the Geneva Conventions Act and composed of a red frame in the shape of a square on edge on a white ground, adopted for the same purpose as specified in paragraph (f); (h) the equivalent sign of the Red Lion and Sun used by Iran for the same purpose as specified in paragraph (f); [...] Use of the emblems in Hong Kong [ edit ] The Hong Kong Red Cross Ordinance (Cap. 1129), in Section 3(c) "Unauthorized distribution of badges and products", states: “ No person shall, except with the authority of the Hong Kong Red Cross, distribute or sell or expose for sale ... any product which contains the emblem of the Geneva Convention, with or without additional words, characters or designs[21] ” This restriction on the use of the emblem was added in 1995. Use of the emblems in Singapore [ edit ] The use of the emblems in Singapore is governed by Geneva Conventions Act (Cap 117). Use of the emblems in the United Kingdom [ edit ] The use of the emblems in the United Kingdom are governed by Geneva Conventions Act 1957[22] as amended by Geneva Conventions (Amendment) Act 1995 and several Orders as Statutory Instruments. Geneva Conventions and United Nations Personnel (Protocols) Act 2009 extended the protection to the Red Crystal. The unauthorised use of the Red Cross on a pantomime costume in Glasgow in 2011 resulted in a request for its removal.[23] Use of the emblems in the United States [ edit ] A notable exception to this is the United States where, although the United States first ratified the Geneva Conventions in 1882, for 18 years no legislation was passed to enact treaty obligations regarding the protection of the Red Cross symbol. On 6 June 1900, the bill to charter the American National Red Cross (ARC) was signed into law. Section 4, which ultimately was codified as 18 U.S.C. §706, protected the Greek red cross symbol by making it a misdemeanor for any person or association to use the Red Cross name or emblem without the organization's permission. Penalties included imprisonment not to exceed one year and a fine between $1 and $500, payable to the ARC. There had been seven trademark registrations for Greek red crosses by entities unrelated to the Red Cross at the time the ARC was incorporated. The existence of these users was recognized in congressional discussion of the act. However, lawmakers took no action to prohibit the rights of these earlier users. In 1905, when Congress was revising the ARC's charter, the issue of pre-existing rights to use the emblem was again raised. Lawmakers reiterated Congress' intent that the prohibitions on use of the Red Cross name and emblem did not make unlawful the use of the Greek red cross by those with otherwise established rights. However, these sentiments were again not reflected in the Red Cross charter revision. At the time of the 1905 revision, the number of trademark registrations with a Greek red cross had grown to 61, including several by Johnson & Johnson. Concerned over potential pre-emption, commercial users lobbied for codification of their existing trademark rights. In 1910, Congress formally established that lawful use of the Red Cross name and emblem that began prior to 5 January 1905, could continue, but only if that use was "for the same purpose and for the same class of goods." Later, the U.S. ratified the 1949 revisions to the Geneva Conventions with a specific reservation that pre-1905 Red Cross trademarks would not be disturbed as long as the Red Cross is not used on "aircraft, vessels, vehicles, buildings or other structures, or upon the ground", all of which are likely to be confused with military uses.[24] Until 2007, U.S. law only protected the Red Cross, and only permitted its use by the ARC and U.S. armed forces; though its use by non-U.S. organizations would normally be implied by the ARC's membership in IFRC and the standard protocols of the military and the Red Cross & Red Crescent movement, the ARC's withholding of IFRC dues from 2000 to 2006 over the Magen David Adom (MDA) issue raised concerns. Both to implement Protocol III (which had received advice and consent from the United States Senate in 2006; the U.S. formalized its ratification in March 2007) and to address these concerns, the Geneva Distinctive Emblems Protection Act of 2006 (Public Law 109-481) was signed into law 12 January 2007, two days before Protocol III went into effect.[25] The law, codified as 18 U.S.C. §706a, extended full legal protection to the Red Crescent and Red Crystal (but not the Red Lion and Sun) in the U.S., subject to private uses prior to the signing of Protocol III that cannot be confused with military uses; permitted the use of all appropriate emblems under the Conventions by the ICRC, the IFRC, all national Red Cross & Red Crescent societies (including MDA by this time), and "(t)he sanitary and hospital authorities of the armed forces of State Parties to the Geneva Conventions"; and permitted the United States Attorney General to obtain injunctions against improper use of the Red Cross, Red Crescent, and Red Crystal in the U.S. U.S. law still does not specifically protect the right of military chaplains to use the emblems under the Geneva Conventions; however, military chaplains that are part of their armed forces' "sanitary and hospital authorities" would have the right to use the emblems in the U.S. The ARC and other Red Cross & Red Crescent entities also employ chaplains; they are entitled to use the emblems through their employment. Johnson & Johnson v. American Red Cross [ edit ] Flag of the Red Cross On 9 August 2007, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, Johnson & Johnson (J&J) filed suit against the American Red Cross alleging trademark infringement.[26] The suit sought to halt the placement of the Red Cross emblem on all first aid, safety and disaster preparedness products not specifically licensed by Johnson & Johnson. The suit also asked for the destruction of all currently existing non-J&J Red Cross emblem-bearing products of this type, and demanded the American Red Cross pay punitive damages and J&J's legal fees. J&J released a statement to the public on 8 August 2007, detailing its decision to file suit,[27] claiming prior rights to the emblem. On the same date, the American Red Cross issued a press release of its own,[28] stating some of the reasons behind its decision to license the Red Cross emblem to first aid and disaster preparedness product manufacturers. It issued a further press release two days later,[29] disputing several of J&J's claims and asserting that "(t)he Red Cross has been selling first aid kits commercially in the United States since 1903." In a statement, the Red Cross said it had worked since 2004 with several licensing partners to create first aid, preparedness and related products that bear the Red Cross emblem. The charity said that all money it received from the sale of these products to consumers was reinvested in its humanitarian programs and services. "For a multi-billion dollar drug company to claim that the Red Cross violated a criminal statute that was created to protect the humanitarian mission of the Red Cross—simply so that J&J can make more money—is obscene," said Mark Everson, the chief executive of the charity.[30] Johnson & Johnson responded, stating that the Red Cross's commercial ventures were outside the scope of historically well-agreed usage, and were in direct violation of federal statutes.[31] The federal court rejected Johnson & Johnson's position and ruled for the American Red Cross, holding that federal law authorizes the American Red Cross to use the Red Cross emblem in the sale of mission-related items like first aid and disaster preparedness kits and to license other firms to use its name and emblem to sell such products. The court noted in particular that the American Red Cross had been doing so for over a century, and that Johnson & Johnson had once itself sought to be a licensee of the American Red Cross. After the court rejected the substance of Johnson & Johnson's complaint, the parties ultimately settled their differences, and the American Red Cross remains free to use its emblem commercially.[32] See also [ edit ]

On New Year’s Eve, 3,000 emails from Hillary Clinton’s private email server were released. One of them confirms – an email dated April 2, 2011 to Clinton from her close confidante Sidney Blumenthal – that: Qaddafi’s government holds 143 tons of gold, and a similar amount in silver. *** This gold was accumulated prior to the current rebellion and was intended to be used to establish a pan-African currency based on the Libyan golden Dinar. This plan was designed to provide the Francophone African Countries with an alternative to the French. franc (CFA). (Source Comment [This is in the original declassified email, and is not a comment added by us]: According to knowledgeable individuals this quantity of gold and silver is valued at more than $7 billion. French intelligence officers discovered this plan shortly after the current rebellion began, and this was one of the factors that influenced President Nicolas Sarkozy’s decision to commit France to the attack on Libya. According to these individuals Sarkozy’s plans are driven by the following issues: A desire to gain a greater share of Libya oil production, Increase French influence in North Africa, Improve his internal political situation in France, Provide the French military with an opportunity to reassert its position in the world, Address the concern of his advisors over Qaddafi’s long term plans to supplant France as the dominant power in Francophone Africa) This may confirm what some of us have been saying for years. While the Sunnis and Shias have been competing for more than a thousand years, they have largely co-existed peacefully until recently. Why are they involved in an open war across multiple countries now? Much of modern geopolitics is driven by hydrocarbons … i.e. oil and gas. Is this true of the Sunnis-Shia war? Yes, the U.S. and its allies are backing the Sunnis against the Shias … in order to wage war for oil. And it turns out that the lion’s share of oil in the Middle East happens to be located in Shia countries … and in the Shia-minority sections of Sunni-majority countries. Specifically, as Jon Schwartz reports this week at the Intercept: Much of the conflict can be explained by a fascinating map created by M.R. Izady, a cartographer and adjunct master professor at the U.S. Air Force Special Operations School/Joint Special Operations University in Florida. What the map shows is that, due to a peculiar correlation of religious history and anaerobic decomposition of plankton, almost all the Persian Gulf’s fossil fuels are located underneath Shiites. This is true even in Sunni Saudi Arabia, where the major oil fields are in the Eastern Province, which has a majority Shiite population. As a result, one of the Saudi royal family’s deepest fears is that one day Saudi Shiites will secede, with their oil, and ally with Shiite Iran. This fear has only grown since the 2003 U.S. invasion of Iraq overturned Saddam Hussein’s minority Sunni regime, and empowered the pro-Iranian Shiite majority. Nimr himself said in 2009 that Saudi Shiites would call for secession if the Saudi government didn’t improve its treatment of them. Source: Dr. Michael Izady at Columbia University, Gulf2000, New York As Izady’s map so strikingly demonstrates, essentially all of the Saudi oil wealth is located in a small sliver of its territory whose occupants are predominantly Shiite. (Nimr, for instance, lived in Awamiyya, in the heart of the Saudi oil region just northwest of Bahrain.) If this section of eastern Saudi Arabia were to break away, the Saudi royals would just be some broke 80-year-olds with nothing left but a lot of beard dye and Viagra prescriptions. Nimr’s execution can be partly explained by the Saudis’ desperation to stamp out any sign of independent thinking among the country’s Shiites. The same tension explains why Saudi Arabia helped Bahrain, an oil-rich, majority-Shiite country ruled by a Sunni monarchy, crush its version of the Arab Spring in 2011. Similar calculations were behind George H.W. Bush’s decision to stand by while Saddam Hussein used chemical weapons in 1991 to put down an insurrection by Iraqi Shiites at the end of the Gulf War. As New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman explained at the time, Saddam had “held Iraq together, much to the satisfaction of the American allies Turkey and Saudi Arabia.” So the Sunni Gulf monarchies in Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Oman, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar and Kuwait are single-mindedly going after Iran and the Shia world – because the Shias are sitting on the oil and gas resources – and doing everything they can to start a Sunni-Shia war across the entire MENA area (Middle East and North Africa) in order to “justify” a resource grab.

AFC Alex Smith was named AFC Offensive Player of the Week for Week 1 after throwing four touchdowns in prime time against the New England Patriots. The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback overcame a poor start, torching the Patriots for 368 yards and ending the game with a 148.6 passer rating. Jacksonville Jaguars defensive end Calais Campbell was named Defensive Player of the Week in the AFC. The veteran pass-rusher was a nightmare for the Houston Texans' offensive line all game long, finishing with four sacks in his first regular-season game for the Jaguars following a big-money move in free agency. Oakland Raiders kicker Giorgio Tavecchio took home Special Teams Player of the Week honors. In his first game as the starter following an injury to Sebastian Janikowski, Tavecchio went 4-for-4 on field goals, including a 52-yarder. NFC Minnesota Vikings quarterback Sam Bradford's dissection of the New Orleans Saints' secondary earned him NFC Offensive Player of the Week honors. In what was maybe the best game of his career, Bradford completed 84.4 percent of his passes and threw for 346 yards and three touchdowns, finishing with an impressive 10.8 yards-per-attempt average. Los Angeles Rams cornerback Trumaine Johnson was named Defensive Player of the Week. Johnson had a starring role in the Rams' dominant performance over the Indianapolis Colts, returning an interception for a touchdown and forcing a fumble. Detroit Lions kicker Matt Prater was named Special Teams Player of the Week. Prater only made one field goal, but it was from an insane distance of 58 yards out. The kicker also displayed his accuracy in a painful way for one cameraman.

On July 18, rapper Showtyme hypes up the crowd during Pharoahe Monch’s set at the Life is Living Festival in Chicago’s Clarendon Park. Activism through spoken word, at the Brave New Voices Poetry Slam. ‘It’s difficult because I feel like a lot of poets are trying to write things for social justice,’ says Kass Levy. ‘But if you don’t have that personal connection to it, then the poem suffers for it.’ Hundreds of teenaged poets, flanked by coaches and advisors, have packed into the ornate Grand Ballroom at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago on July 14. Comprising 50 teams, with entourages of up to 30 people, they have come from as far away as the United Kingdom and Guam. The poets, aged 13 to 19, are representing their cities in the 12th annual Brave New Voices International Youth Poetry Slam Festival. Over the next five days, they will perform three-and-a-half minute poems on topics ranging from immigration to urban violence to environmental justice. There are signs of civic pride–mostly in team shirts or, in the case of the team from Denver, matching gold lamé headbands–but most of the young poets are wearing this year’s official festival t-shirt, the back of which bears a quote from slain Black Panther leader Fred Hampton: “Let me just say: Peace to you, if you’re willing to fight for it.” “We want [the poets] to appreciate the words and actions that have gone before them,” says Youth Speaks Executive Director James Kass, “and know that they’re part of a continuum of writers and activists and educators, that they’re stepping into it and this is their time.” While competition and artistry are central to the event, spoken word is also deeply political, and the festival is a way to voice the youth perspective, build community and dialogue about social justice. “It’s a way to connect with problems that go on in our inner cities and even in our suburbs that are not talked about,” says Milton McKinney III of the Chicago All-Stars team. “They’re brought to a higher plateau and people all over can relate to them, and it makes people get closer to what’s going on.” Central to the festival are social justice-oriented events, including a youth townhall forum, an environmentally focused slam called Speak Green, and the Life Is Living festival, a community party that promotes eco-justice and an end to urban violence. Speak Green and the Life Is Living project are the brainchildren of poet and performer Marc Bamuthi Joseph, who seeks to bring minority voices to the green movement. “The environmental crisis really parallels a lot of the other things that are happening,” says Michael Cirelli, who coaches the Urban Word team from New York City. “This really broadens the sphere of [young people’s] activism, because aside from challenging the inequities in their school system and their communities, now they are actually seeing how the environments in these places are also disproportionately under-served and under-protected in many cases.” Nolan Eskeets, a poet representing the Santa Fe Indian School, performed a piece at Speak Green called “The Boy Dreams,” about the damage uranium mining has inflicted upon the Navajo Nation. His soft-spoken demeanor became stern as he read: “He embraces Sister/she swings from Father’s venomous hands before sitting to dinner/her kidneys will fail.” Eskeets has been using the poem as a means to network with environmental advocacy groups. “If the right people are listening, then obviously something will manifest,” he says. ‘Life Is Living’ On July 18, residents of Chicago’s Uptown neighborhood were greeted with pounding marching band drums and impassioned chants as slam participants and community members took part in the Life Is Living festival parade. Marchers carried poles with green “street signs” bearing the name of a Chicago youth slain this year. The parade wound up in Clarendon Park, where the festival continued with breakdancing competitions, sports tournaments and guerrilla theatre. Meanwhile, graffiti artists painted vivid sustainability-focused murals, which Bamuthi Joseph will install in 16 locations around Chicago to unite the community and provide a tangible reminder of the event’s message. A number of hip-hop artists performed, including Pharoahe Monch, Chicago’s Rebel Diaz and slam circuit legend Saul Williams. “Once [the poets] find their voices, they are their own healers, they are their own community’s healers,” Williams says. “So all we’re doing is trying to connect them to their own source.” Young poets’ society Kevin Coval, founder of the annual Chicago youth slam Louder Than A Bomb and emcee of the BNV finals says the slam has a democratizing effect. “For young people to see what it’s like to be from Guam or from a reservation in the Southwest or a city in the Northeast or from Chicago, I think that kind of erasure of the fear of the Other happens in this work,” says Coval, an occasional In These Times contributor. The conversation may have a tendency to repeat itself and become internalized, Coval says, but he thinks the movement has done a good job of bringing in new people. Poets draw inspiration from a variety of sources and experiences–hence the profusion of “Where I’m From” poems, a staple of most repertoires. Many others opt to elaborate on headlines–almost always news stories that affected poets or were under-reported by mainstream media. The Urban Word team brought crowds to their feet with “Switch,” a poem about homosexuality in the black community, paralleling the murders of Matthew Shepard and Rashawn Brazell: “Feminine tendencies won’t allow me to make a fist/A devil controlling my forearm to hang low like a lynched dream.” Though the team didn’t make the finals, audience members were so moved by the piece that they demanded the poets perform it at the Chicago Theatre after the final competition. But the most common source for inspiration is always personal experience. Sara Kass Levy, a poet from Boston, recounted an experience with sexual violence through the lens of a battlefield: “You kissed grenades over the warzone of my collarbones/hissed hot bombs into my ear.” “It’s difficult because I feel like a lot of poets are trying to write things for social justice,” Kass Levy says. “But if you don’t have that personal connection to it then the poem suffers for it.” Across two oceans The night of the finals, the mood in the green room at the Chicago Theatre is ecstatic. Poets greet each other with hugs, freestyle and swap iPods as crowds clamor to get into the theater and cheer on the four teams who have made the last round: Jacksonville, Fla., Hawaii, Bay Area and Leeds, U.K. “A festival like this is all about celebrating truth and word and different perspectives, so it makes sense to bring in as much perspective in as possible,” says Joseph Buckley, a poet representing Leeds. At the end of the evening, Team Hawaii is declared the winner, but there is no special pageantry. As Coval is quick to remind the audience, the winner of Brave New Voices gets nothing. Everyone–poets, coaches, audience–dances throughout the theater, one last burst of communal exuberance. Team Denver’s group piece was a fitting reminder of the festival’s mission: “Together, we are 21 feet, five-and-a-half inches tall/we are trying to make a difference/we are more than the sum of our skeletons…” The audience erupted in agreement with their closing line: “We are not as small as you think.” Videos Slam Highlights: Art and Activism at Life is Living Festival: Poets on Poetry: GET INVOLVED

The North Wall, also known as the Canadian Vietnam Veterans Memorial, is a war memorial in Windsor, Ontario, Canada. The monument was erected on July 2, 1995 in honour of the Canadian veterans who were killed in action, made prisoners of war, or declared missing in action during the Vietnam War. Description [ edit ] There are 147 names currently listed as casualties of known Canadian origin on the North Wall, with 7 listed as POW/MIA. The monument is 14 ft (4.3 m) wide, 11 ft (3.4 m) tall, and weighs 3 tons. The inscription reads: As long as we live, you shall live. As long as we live, You shall be remembered. As long as we live, you shall be loved. The monument is in Assumption Park directly across from Detroit, Michigan under the Ambassador Bridge, which spans from Detroit to Windsor. Background [ edit ] Canada was officially a non-belligerent during the Vietnam War. However, around 30,000 Canadian citizens enlisted with the United States Armed Forces in order to serve during the Vietnam War.[1][2] These Canadians had to list a U.S city as their place of birth or residence because the Canadian Foreign Enlistment Act (1937) states: "Any person who being a Canadian national, whether within or residing outside Canada voluntarily accepts or agrees to accept any commission or engagement in the armed forces of any foreign state at war with any friendly state, is guilty of an offense of this act."[citation needed] History [ edit ] In 1986, the Canadian Vietnam Veterans' Welcome Home Committee was formed by American Vietnam War veterans Ric Gidner and Ed Johnson. Gidner and Johnson were inspired by Canadian Vietnam Veterans that they met during the 1980s, and formed the committee to have a monument created and dedicated to the Canadian veterans. The Committee was later renamed the Michigan Association of Concerned Veterans (MACV). Gidner, Johnson, and Chris Reynolds formed committees with Canadian organizations and campaigned to have the Canadian federal government erect a memorial in the capital, Ottawa, Ontario. In 1994, however, a Bill to erect the memorial failed to pass through Parliament. In the meantime, the members of the MACV used private funds to pay for building a memorial from black granite, the same material used for the United States' Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C.. In 1995, the office of the Mayor of Windsor, Michael Hurst, contacted MACV about locating the memorial in Windsor. The City Council of Windsor passed the initiative, and the memorial was dedicated on July 2. Canadian and American veterans' organizations attended the dedication, as did Canadian Senator Jack Marshall and Michael Hurst.[3] Every year since the opening dedication in 1995, a ceremony and laying of wreaths has been officiated over and attended by prominent Canadian and U.S officials, veterans on both sides of the border, family members of those whose names are on the memorial, and supporters of the project.[4] See also [ edit ]

Buy Photo Fans filled the seats of turn three last May 29 for the 100th running of the Indianapolis 500. (Photo: Jennifer Dummett/For IndyStar, Jennifer Dummett)Buy Photo INDIANAPOLIS — There should be little letdown for the Indianapolis 500 following the milestone 100th race last year. In an exclusive interview with IndyStar, Indianapolis Motor Speedway President Doug Boles revealed that he expects a near-record crowd, significantly exceeding the estimated crowd of 220,000 at the 2015 race. "We'll be well north of (250,000)," Boles said Thursday at IMS. "That is not a problem." Last year, an estimated 350,000-plus people packed IMS to witness the historic 100th running of the 500-Mile Race. The jaw-dropping crowd was, according to IMS, the only recorded sellout in 500 history and led to the local TV blackout being lifted for the first time since 1950. But as the track basked in the glow of its century of history and tradition, many wondered whether there would be a massive drop-off for the 101st running. • Five questions for Doug Boles The answer to that is no. While topping or even matching last year is likely impossible, Boles and IMS are eyeing yet another mega crowd for May 28. The track president said he and his team have gone to great lengths to retain as much of the boost it got from the 100th running as possible. And their efforts — from revamping their "Race to Renew" ticket renewal campaign to Boles personally calling 10 customers a night to invite them back — have been rewarded. So far, Boles said, "we've kept significantly more than we thought we would." Among the biggest sources of retention, Boles said, have been the lifelong fans. While that may not come as a surprise to some, Boles said one of the track's biggest fears heading into last year's race was that the fans who had been coming year after year would feel satisfied after "making it to 100," and would stop attending. That's not happening. Buy Photo Indianapolis Motor Speedway President Doug Boles told IndyStar that this year's Indy 500 crowd would be "well north" of 250,000 people. (Photo: Michelle Pemberton/Indy Star) "With a lot of the people we thought were at risk to leave, they walked back in the facility on race morning last year and realized why they love the place," Boles said. "They realized what it really meant to them. ... It's amazing the stories I'm still hearing of people who can't wait to come back." So does that mean that the 101st running could clear 300,000? Or that IndyCar might again consider lifting the TV blackout? It's too early to know, Boles said, but nothing has been ruled out. "I don't know that we get to the (2016) level," Boles said. "That's a tall order ... But we'll definitely have a really good crowd. I think people are going to come in and notice it's much better, with the exception of last year, than any other year where they've been." If that's the case, IMS could, in fact, be looking at 300,000 in attendance, since there were reports of that many fans showing up in 2011 for the 100th anniversary of the 500, which ran its first race in 1911. The 2011 race marked a significant improvement in attendance at the 500, and it also marked what Boles describes as the "new normal" for the Greatest Spectacle in Racing.

As for what fans can look forward to at the upcoming race, Boles said a blend of old and new. While the focal point of the 100th running was a look back at a century of history, this year will begin to look toward the future. "IndyCar is really focused on what's next," Boles said. "What's the next generation, but what makes (IMS) so special and different is our history and tradition. ... So while last year was a great opportunity for us to really celebrate our history, this year we're going to celebrate our history, but it's also the beginning of what's next. And we'll continue to focus on what's next. And that's what so powerful about this brand: It's able to live in both worlds." Infield camping at Grand Prix Boles announced Thursday that for the first time, fans will be able to camp along the IMS road course at the IndyCar Grand Prix. Three nights of camping (May 11-13) will be available for prices ranging from $150 to $300. Boles himself will be among the campers before the May 14 race.

Cameras on the Trail, Part 1 of 3 Click Here - E-Book Just $9 » Menu Home Contents Author T-Shirts! Reviews Blog Browse: Home » Cameras on the Trail, Part 1 of 3 Cameras on the Trail, Part 1 of 3 Ray Rippel March 26, 2013 14 Backpackers love to debate gear. It seems as if we can argue about boots vs. trail runners or tents vs. tarps endlessly. Arguments about cameras? Eh, not so much. Most of us devote little thought to the camera we decide to bring. We pack, well, whatever we have, and that’s too bad. Years later, after the boots have worn out and the tarp is lost in the garage, our photos are the most meaningful artifacts from our trip. It’s for that reason that I’m posting a three-part article regarding what camera you should bring on your hike of the John Muir Trail. Today I’ll cover the most basic option–a point-and-shoot. Next week I’ll discuss some mid-range options (in terms of price, capabilities and weight), and the last entry will be about the advantages and disadvantages of carrying a full-frame DSLR. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ Let’s start with the good news: it’s almost impossible to buy a bad camera anymore. In fact, it is so difficult to buy a new, bad camera that there are whole companies with the business model of producing new, bad cameras (see Holga); they are that hard to find! A decent point-and-shoot camera of 2013 is better than the best digital camera of fifteen years ago, better than most 35mm film cameras ever built, and better than, well, most photographers. Now, I’m NOT saying that point-and-shoot cameras are just as good as high-end DSLRs. They aren’t. Resolution, low-light capabilities, and the ability to isolate subjects with a shallow depth-of-field are just a few of the ways a good camera will outshine an inexpensive one. Another is the quality of the lenses. Still, today’s point-and-shoot is an extremely fine machine, especially when you consider how most photos are viewed these days. And how will most of your treasured pictures of the trail be viewed? I’m going to bet you are looking at the way, right now: on a computer screen. Which brings us to the next revelation. See that picture below? When I captured it, with my Nikon D800, the image was comprised of more than 36,000,000 individual pixels. That means if I were to print the image at the same pixels-per-inch as this Retina display on my third generation iPad, it would be about 28 inches wide and 18 inches tall. View it from a more reasonable distance, there is no reason I couldn’t print it six feet wide. But here’s the thing, that picture above (which may not be a classic, but is certainly adequate), doesn’t have 36 million pixels. It has a little over 100,000. (To put this in the vernacular of the day, it isn’t a 36 megapixel image, it’s a .1 (yes, that’s POINT 1) megapixel image. If your photos are going to be viewed on a computer screen, and if you aren’t going to do any heavy-duty post processing, it’s hard to justify taking anything but a point-and-shoot on the trail. They are light, inexpensive, easy on the battery, and (this is important) easy to carry in a case on a belt, sternum strap or shoulder strap. That means they will be available when you turn the corner and find bears straddling the trail, a coyote with his back turned to you, or a marmot posing on a sunny rock. I do have a couple of suggestions regarding a good choice. First, look for a camera with an optical viewfinder. What’s that? An optical viewfinder is a viewfinder that you look through to compose the shot. Since there is no electronics involved (on most point-and-shoot cameras you use the power-hungry LCD screen to compose the shot), you will vastly increase your battery life, particularly if you resist the temptation to view the results, afterwards, on the LCD. Second, if you are going to do some post-processing, consider buying a camera that allows you to shoot RAW images. RAW images give you ALL the data the camera captured at the moment you pressed the shutter button, and they are much more useful when it comes time to post-process, even if you are just using a simple and inexpensive post-processing program like Photoshop Elements. One last point: most point-and-shoot cameras have a video mode. Use it. On a whim, I recorded a short, four- or five-minute video each night of my thru-hike, after I had set up camp. At the time, I wasn’t even sure why I went to the effort. I know now: they’ve become some of my favorite mementos of my hike. If you would like to see what mean, I posted them on Vimeo. Good hiking, Ray Filed under: Blog and Tagged: camera, gear, John Muir Trail, movies, photography ← Previous Next → 14 Comments Helen Beckers March 26, 2013 at 3:46 am Hey Ray, great! Exactly the information that I need for my next item on my To Buy-list: a camera… Looking for one that is light, has an optical viewfinder, long batterie life, and makes HD videos… How many batteries did you take on your JMT? Did you carry a charger? (Sorry if you wrote that in your book already and I’m now asking again… been reading so much these days, that I can’t keep everything in my head) :c) See you! Helen Reply Ray March 26, 2013 at 7:59 am Thanks for the comment, Helen! This was the camera I carried on my first thru-hike: http://www.amazon.com/Nikon-Coolpix-P6000-Vibration-Reduction/dp/B001DO15J2. I love this little guy, especially if I am shooting in good light. This price seems a little high; I’m sure there are comparable cameras for less. I carried three batteries (they are tiny), and I brought the not-so-tiny charger so that I could charge them at Red’s Meadow and Muir Trail Ranch. I was careful to avoid using the LCD as much as possible and that worked out fine. (By the way, I don’t think this camera shoots HD video; it’s an old model.) I shot in RAW mode exclusively, which allowed me to do some pretty terrific stuff in post-processing. I may do a fourth installment on this topic, listing some cameras to consider. Good hiking! Reply pascale March 29, 2013 at 5:36 pm hello Ray i was glad to find your article and i will look forward to reading the next one… ever since we have decided on taking the jmt journey on its entirety i have been wondering which camera to bring… at first i wanted to bring my gh2 panasonic , but this camera consumes so much battery power that i don’t think it is a good idea. so i am thinking about bringing my canon g10, but still i wondeer about the battery. we will not leave the trail at all for 24 to 26 days??? i have not been able to find any solar power outlet for the lithium baterries unless i want to pay over 700$ for one?? so what would be your advise on how many batteries to carry for his length of time thank pascale from Montreal Quebec Reply Ray Rippel March 29, 2013 at 7:40 pm Good day, Pascale, Sometimes I have to laugh at us digital photographers. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if they could invent a camera that didn’t need electricity at all? Nah, that’s impossible. I think what you are going to be stuck with is taking several spare batteries and a charger. That’s what I did last time, and what I have resolved to do this year. Either camera is an excellent choice, although, even as a Nikionian, I have long admired the Canon G10. It’s a fine machine. I suspect your GH2 has a little better low-light performance, and the video is probably better as well. Does anyone sell some sort of aftermarket optical viewfinder for the GH2? If you could cut down on the use of the LCD it would substantially increase your battery life. The next installment will be up on Tuesday, and I’ll be discussing cameras much like the GH2. Good hiking, Ray Reply Clayton March 26, 2013 at 12:40 pm No good reason not to pickup a gps enabled point and shoot camera today. Many models to be had for $300 or less. GPS encoding your photos helps place where they were taken on the trip… Reply Ray March 27, 2013 at 7:19 am Great point! One thing to remember, though, is to keep the GPS off unless you are shooting. They consume a lot of battery. Reply Tom March 27, 2013 at 5:12 pm Thanks for the info Ray, and thanks for the help on my JMT hike last year. I would love to do the hike again with a good camera. Last year I went very light and used my Samsung cell phone for both still pictures and video. I also used it for GPS and casual reading material (including your ebook). I took a solar charger to keep it charged. It did the job just fine for what I wanted, (taking stills and recording video logs, similar to yours) and I got some nice shots, but for the next JMT hike I’m thinking of taking something with a large sensor for good dynamic range and light gathering capability to really try to capture the beauty of the trail. A lady we hiked with for a while had a Samsung NX-20 that took beautiful pictures similar to a DSLR, but weighed much less. I’ll have to look into something like that. Reply Ray March 28, 2013 at 7:32 am Tom, I know exactly how you feel. I, too, am considering carrying something bigger this year: my anything-but-ultralight Nikon D800. I change plans from day to day, but what I am considering right now is going with just a fast 50mm (1.4). (The other options I’m considering are my 24-70 2.8 or perhaps a rented or purchased super zoom). Decisions, decisions! Be sure to check out next Tuesday’s post where I will discuss some almost-as-good-as-DSLR cameras that are still pretty light. Thanks for the comment!

They can be power hungry, but man are they great. Would love a weather resistant model. Check out the Sony a6000. This is the way of future cameras IMHO! Cheers. And I still don’t know what I’ll carry…lol Reply Ray Rippel March 26, 2015 at 7:13 am The mirrorless cameras are getting more and more of a following, no doubt! I, like you, am not sure what I am going to carry this year. I’m pretty sure it won’t be the D800, though. Thanks for the comment, John. Reply Leave a Reply Click here to cancel reply.

Nvidia drops prices on latest cards | bit-tech.net Dark Theme Light Theme Home Tech Modding Gaming Forum Login Register All News Reviews Features Previews Guides Blogs Competitions Press Releases All Audio Cases Cooling CPUs Graphics Laptops Memory Mobile Monitors Motherboards Networking PCs Peripherals PSUs Software Storage Nvidia drops prices on latest cards Written by Richard Swinburne July 14, 2008 | 12:19 Tags: #260 #280 #9800 #drop #gtx #plus #price Companies: #nvidia We've been on the phone to Nvidia this morning and have word on price drops for the latest Nvidia graphics cards: GeForce GTX 280, 260 and 9800 GTX+. The exact pricing for us (or you) Europeans and our neighbours in the States is: The GeForce GTX 280 drops to $449 or 359 Euros GeForce GTX 260 drops to $299 or 239 Euros GeForce 9800 GTX+ will come in at $199 or 169 Euro Exact pound sterling prices are as yet to be determined since obviously our small island matters less, but you can extrapolate for yourselves a balance between Euro:Pound exchange rate, with the inevitable "British tax that makes everything more expensive than it should", added on top. The GeForce GTX 260 should now make the competition with the Radeon HD 4870 more fierce, as will the price drops for GeForce 9800 GTX+ with the Radeon HD 4850. The GeForce GTX 280 price drop is in anticipated response to the Radeon HD 4870 X2's release in the next few weeks. While a few people that have already bought cards might feel a little bitter, GeForce GTX 280 especially, we'd say that's just the price you pay for jumping on the bandwagon early.

(2012). Immunoregulation of acquired ocular immunobullous disease. University of Birmingham. Ph.D. Preview Williams12PhD.pdf PDF - Accepted Version Download (7MB) Abstract Ocular Mucous Membrane Pemphigoid (OcMMP) is a blinding immunobullous disease, characterised by auto-antibody driven conjunctival inflammation and scarring. My hypothesis was that progressive fibrosis in OcMMP, occurring in the apparent absence of clinical inflammation, was driven by underlying inflammatory processes. I observed that in OcMMP, progressive scarring did occur in the apparent absence of clinically identifiable inflammation and I was able to improve clinical documentation by developing and validating an objective Fornix Depth Measurer (FDM) for assessment of scarring. I optimised non-invasive Ocular Surface Impression Cytology (OSIC) combined with flow cytometry to characterise conjunctival leukocytes. I found that CD8αβ+ effector memory, cytotoxic, mucosal-homing T cells were the dominant population in health. This population was unaltered with age but CD4+ T cells, capable of producing IFN-γ, increased. In OcMMP, the conjunctiva was characterised by decreased CD8+ lymphocytes and an elevation in CD45INTCD11b+CD16+CD14- neutrophils. Although neutrophils correlated with clinical inflammation, they were even present in the absence of identifiable conjunctivitis. This elevation was associated with progression of scarring assessed by FDM, even in the clinically Non-inflamed eye. These findings confirmed my hypothesis and provide a platform for quantifying neutrophils as a biomarker of sub-clinical inflammation and their role in the scarring process.

Nay, do not grieve tho’ life be full of sadness, Dawn will not veil her splendour for your grief, Nor spring deny their bright, appointed beauty To lotus blossom and ashoka leaf. Nay, do not pine, tho’ life be dark with trouble, Time will not pause or tarry on his way; To-day that seems so long, so strange, so bitter, Will soon be some forgotten yesterday. Nay, do not weep; new hopes, new dreams, new faces, The unspent joy of all the unborn years, Will prove your heart a traitor to its sorrow, And make your eyes unfaithful to their tears.

LINCOLN CITY, Ore. - The debris that's been washing up on Oregon's coast is not from the tsunami in Japan. The first of the foot-and-a-half-long metal cylinders washed up 10 days ago near Florence. The second came ashore at Depoe Bay Sept. 30. A third was found at Gleneden Beach near Lincoln City last week. Explosive experts say these cylinders shouldn't be handled by anyone who happens to find them. They're so dangerous they only want people to call 911 if they see one of them. The cylinders are used by the military to mark locations in the ocean. They wash ashore once in a while, typically once a month. But for some reason, three washed up on the coast in just one week. There could be more. Military explosives experts have been destroying the cylinders by blowing them up. The cylinders hold white phosphorous, which experts say is dangerous. The Air Force and Navy use them to mark search and submarine tracking areas. The phosphorous burns white-hot when it is exposed to air. Duds full of unburned or half-burned material ignite once the phosphorous inside is exposed to air. "After a period of time they'll dry out, and then the phosphorous will contact the air and start burning again," said Detective Howard Greer of the Oregon State Police. "If people are near these things when they start burning again, you can get some very, very serious burns." Many beachcombers are looking for tsunami debris, but most don't know what the cylinders are. Robert Miller was scouring the beach with his metal detector on Monday not far from where the last cylinder washed ashore. He said that now that he knows what the cylinders are, he'll be extra careful. "I'll keep looking, because I'm out here quite often, so I'll keep looking for them," he said. The cylinders have military markings on them, and sometimes they have arming instructions. But those are also often covered up while they're floating in the ocean.

Impact Las Vegas Basketball League: Competitive Training Series SHARE THIS PAGE "LIKE" US ON FACEBOOK Joe Abunassar and Impact Basketball, a leader in basketball training and development, will host an unprecedented training and competition series in Las Vegas, Sept 12-23, dubbed the Impact Basketball Competitive Training Series. Impact Vegas Training League Links: • Intro/Preview • Game Schedule • Team Rosters • Player List Over 60 NBA players will attend to train privately, then play competitive games that the public will be able to watch. The first week of Impact Las Vegas games will be played Monday, September 12 through Thursday, September 15. The second week is Monday, September 19 through Friday, September 23. The Impact basketball game times each day are scheduled to be 1:30pm, 3:30pm, 5:30pm and 7:30pm PT. Times may be subject to change. Fans in the Las Vegas area are in luck: They'll be able to attend the games. A limited number of seats will be available at the Impact basketball arena ticket office. InsideHoops.com has heard, but not yet confirmed, that the games will cost $20 for a full-day, general admission ticket. The arena address for the Impact Las Vegas basketball gym is 121 East Sunset Road. Their location is south and a bit east of the Las Vegas strip. It's very slightly southwest of McCarran International Airport. “This will be an amazing two weeks for all of us NBA players who have been working and training hard all summer to get together and have a chance to really get after it on the court against some of the best players in the league. I have trained with Joe for fourteen years and Impact continues to be the world’s elite place to train and improve your game. This will be a great two weeks for everyone,” said Knicks point guard Chauncey Billups, one of the top NBA veterans who will play in the Vegas Impact series. “Never before in the off-season have so many great players come together to train and play. I am thrilled to be able to provide our world-class training environment and system to so many great players,” said Joe Abunassar, founder of Impact Basketball. “This will be an experience of a lifetime for our Impact Academy students; everything we do at Impact is built from our experiences of training great pros and all-stars over the past fifteen years. This will certainly enhance our entire program for all of our athletes,” continued Abunassar. And now for some stuff that doesn't really matter: Lots of people are calling this the Las Vegas Impact basketball league. Or the Vegas NBA Lockout League. Or the Impact Basketball Competitive Training Series. There seem to be plenty of names. While the easy thing to do is simply say "Impact Las Vegas League," organizers note that this is NOT a league. InsideHoops.com believes it's due to language in NBA contracts. Organizers don't want to get the participating players in trouble with the NBA teams they're signed with. So, yeah. It's not a league. Call it the Impact Basketball Series. Or anything. All that matters is, it sounds pretty awesome and is going to help save basketball for about half of September. A basketball oasis in the desert. Most of the players involved in the Impact games are NBA guys. Which is great. But bunches of participating players will unfortunately miss some of their scheduled games due to other engagements. So the actual Impact basketball roster is subject to change, and each day there could be a few players missing, and perhaps some surprise special guests ballin' in their place. Some of the best players (in the eyes of InsideHoops.com) that will participate in the Impact basketball series include Stephen Curry, Zach Randolph, John Wall, Chauncey Billups, Al Harrington, Wesley Matthews, Stephen Jackson, Mo Williams, Hakim Warrick, Courtney Lee, Rashard Lewis, Dorell Wright, Corey Maggette, Nick Young, Kenyon Martin, Jerryd Bayless, Tony Allen, DeMar DeRozan and Jared Dudley.

Quotable: A Little Bit of Kierkegaard | Oceans Never Fill Oceans Never Fill What I’m Reading Why “Oceans Never Fill” Who I Am Books I Love All streams run to the sea, but the sea is not full; to the place where the streams flow, there they flow again. Ecclesiastes 1:7 Quotable: A Little Bit of Kierkegaard October 17, 2014 · by Lydia · in quotables · Leave a comment I do love Kierkegaard…he’s worth picking up if you haven’t already. Yes, when late autumn comes, even the flower can speak the wisdom of the years and say with truthfulness, “All has its time, there is ‘a time to be born and a time to die’; there is a time to jest lightheartedly in the spring breeze, and a time to break under the autumn storm; there is a time to burst forth into blossom, beside the running water, beloved by the stream, and a time to wither and be forgotten; a time to be sought out for one’s beauty, and a time to be unnoticed in one’s wretchedness Immortality cannot be a final alteration that crept in, so to speak, at the moment of death as the final stage. On the contrary, it is a changelessness that is not altered by the passage of the years. Therefore, to the old man’s words that “all has its time,” the wise Solomon adds, “God made all things beautiful in his time; also he hath set eternity within man’s heart” (Ecclesiastes 3: 11). If there is, then, something eternal in a man the discussion of it must have a different ring. But the Eternal is that which is set over all, The Eternal will not have its time, but will fashion time to its own desire Søren Kierkegaard–Purity of Heart is to Will One Thing Share this: Tweet Email Like this: Like Loading...

It’s just that the male foreskin is the only part that American science has actually researched and sought justification for excising in infancy,* despite the fact that several other non-essential body parts have just as much, if not more, potential for infection and disease. And why is this? Because the unaltered male genitalia are terribly prone to infection and disease? No, quite the opposite, actually, when compared to the unaltered female genitalia. Because intact little boys can’t seem to keep themselves clean? Nope, that’s nursery rhyme science–something about frogs and snails and puppy dogs’ tails. The truth is that the only little boys aged 0 – 5 years old who don’t have their foreskins are North American or Jewish (the largest single group of circumcised males, Muslims, are generally not circumcised until after the age of 5), and the other 95% of little boys worldwide don’t seem to have any trouble keeping themselves clean. And again, studies indicate that it’s actually little girls who more commonly have issues in that area. So much for sugar and spice and everything nice. Is it because we observe that men with foreskins hate that tender, erogenous, nerve-rich fold of skin at the end of their member? No, we simply do not observe European, Japanese, Chinese, or South American men—the majority of whom live and die with their foreskins—pursuing circumcision in adulthood or showing any consistent pattern of elevated infection rates compared to men in similarly-developed nations without their foreskins that would indicate that this part is a nuisance or hazard to them. So why has the foreskin, among all the non-essential body parts that could be linked up with various infections and disease, been the only part that we’ve researched the “health benefits” of cutting off at birth? Answer: because we were already doing it. It’s simply historical accident. Let’s stop and think about circumcision as a health measure for a minute. Quite frankly, epidemiologically-speaking, it’s quite bizarre that anyone would study genital cutting for “health benefits” in an American context, given that the vast majority of individuals in similarly-developed nations possess all of their genitalia and do not show any consistent pattern of higher rates of infection or disease involving the genitalia than those with altered genitalia. And it is even more baffling, epidemiologically-speaking, that American science has seen fit to study altering the male genitalia and not the female genitalia, which have more folds, more exposed mucosal tissue, and are more prone to UTIs, yeast infections, odor, smegma, HPV, most STIs from vaginal intercourse, HIV from vaginal intercourse, and hygiene issues than their male counterpart. But historically-culturally speaking, it’s not bizarre at all. A good percentage of American males were already being circumcised in infancy and childhood for societal-moral reasons (read: to curb male sexuality) by the time modern profit-driven American medicine was ramping up in the 20th century, and so it made sense that science would devote its resources to the study of its “health benefits,” given how common and profitable the practice had become. It’s quite strange to study cutting off a part of the body as a preventative health measure, but if you’re already cutting that part off, the association of health benefits with the act couldn’t be more welcomed and believed without question by the masses who were already doing it in the first place. Female circumcision (along with prophylactically cutting off any body part at birth except the foreskin), of course, never caught on that well in the West, and so it’s never been studied in a sanitary, medical, American context rather than an unsanitary African context performed with shared rusty razor blades, which, by the way, is the context that groups such as the WHO envision in their claims that female circumcision causes a whole litany of health maladies, as one would expect when a child’s genitals are cut open in a small mud hut with unwashed tools. But researching the excision of female genital tissue in the same sanitary conditions in which America examines and performs male circumcision? It’s never been done, despite the female genitalia’s greater amount of moist folds of skin and exposed mucosal tissue as well as elevated risk of infection compared to the male genitalia. Given this fact pattern, it’s evident that the fact that male circumcision has been researched extensively in an American context while female circumcision (or any other excision of normal, healthy, non-essential tissue from a child’s body) has not been similarly researched is due not to the inherent medical merits of male circumcision or to some greater propensity of the intact male genitalia to infection than these other body parts but rather to the historical accident that in the late 19th and early 20th centuries male circumcision caught on in the United States for societal-moral reasons and female circumcision did not. If the excision of female genital tissue (or any other non-foreskin body part) had similarly caught on, we would in all likelihood see American science linking that body part to all sorts of infections and diseases as well, wrapping the possibilities in medical jargon, continuing on an endless spiral of pros and cons, citing this study over here and that one over there, and creating a seemingly valid yet incredibly sophistic argument for giving parents a “choice” to elect to have that part routinely amputated from their child’s body at birth.** It really could have been any non-essential body part that suffered such a fate: earlobes to reduce the risk of skin cancer, female genital folds to reduce the risk of labial adhesions and attendant UTIs and who knows what else (since it’s never been researched), the fourth and fifth toes to reduce the risk of fungal infection, etc. But, of course, we readily dismiss researching such proposals as routine earlobe amputation or labiaplasty or toe amputation for infants and children as ludicrous if not horrific, despite the fact that such operations at birth could quite possibly reduce the child’s risk of infection and disease. This proves that there exists some disconnect in our reasoning, a mystical irrationality clouding our minds, when the same thinking is applied to foreskins and routine circumcision.** And why is this? Historical accident. We were already cutting off foreskins rather than earlobes or labia or toes and so that was the body part that we chose to study the supposed health benefits of excising–something we would never consider doing with any other normal, natural, healthy, permanently-attached portion of a child’s body. But science should not be dictated by historical accident. The medical profession is supposed to be based on scientific reasoning and logic and consistency. Therefore, the American medical establishment, including the American Academy of Pediatrics and the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, is challenged to view the foreskin in the same way that it views other non-essential body parts and tissues such as earlobes and female genital folds and toes–which are all potential infection and disease sites–and not as the sole exception to the general rule of respect afforded to the human body in its naturally-occurring state. Be honest, America, and be done with this inconsistent analysis. Stop the madness. *And adulthood, for that matter, especially for HIV prevention, but since the vast majority of circumcised American men were circumcised in infancy, that is our focus. Nevertheless, the line of thinking presented above is just as valid even if the topic is adult circumcision. **Much thanks to Rosemary Romberg, author of Circumcision: The Painful Dilemma, for much of the language used in these two sentences.

Jacob Ind got the idea of killing his mother and stepfather, at the tender age of 15, from a friend who came over to his Colorado house one day and remarked how his mom was such a “bitch”. Torey Adamcik and Brian Draper, both 16 at the time, took inspiration from the Wes Craven horror movie “Scream” when they stabbed and killed their high school classmate Cassie Jo Stoddart in small-town Idaho in 2006. And film-maker Joshua Rofe was prompted to make a documentary about them and other American juvenile offenders sentenced to life imprisonment without parole when he met a judge from Florida at a friend’s birthday party. “He was clearly conflicted” about putting a 15-year-old killer of a taxi driver behind bars forever, said Rofe, whose disturbing film “Lost for Life” premieres Saturday at the American Film Institute’s AFI Docs festival. “The girl that he sentenced to life without parole had the same name as his daughter. She was about the same age, and he said he often wondered if there was a better option,” he told AFP. “That was it. Right there, I knew I wanted to make a film about that.” The US Supreme Court ruled in June 2012 that mandatory life without parole for a minor convicted of murder — the law in 29 states at the time — was a form of “cruel and unusual punishment” prohibited by the US Constitution. But it affirmed that judges have the option to impose the harshest possible sentence short of execution on youths — a sentence now being served by 2,570 “juvenile lifers,” according to the American Civil Liberties Union. “The United States stands alone worldwide in imposing sentences of life without parole on juveniles,” the non-profit Sentencing Project stated in a report last year. Its research found that a majority of juvenile lifers had witnessed violence in their homes and had been suspended or expelled from school at some point. Moreover, 80 percent of female lifers had been victims of sexual abuse. “Lost for Life” takes viewers into some of America’s toughest prisons to hear Ind, Adamcik, Draper and others discuss the crimes they committed and to consider if they should at least be entitled to apply for parole. “I wanted people to basically have the experience that I had when I first heard about juvenile life without parole,” Rofe told AFP in a telephone interview. Some of the inmates he met exhibited genuine signs of remorse as they calmly recounted their crimes. Others refused to acknowledge responsibility for having taken another person’s life. “Some people change. Some people don’t,” said Rofe, who in 2005 directed an indie film, “Brooklyn Battery,” about a juvenile sentenced to three years for accidentally killing a fellow student in a brawl. “There are undoubtedly people who committed murder when they were 15 years old who will never be fit to walk among us,” he said. “And there are undoubtedly people who committed murder when they were 15 years old who, let’s say for argument’s sake, after 20 or 25 years (behind bars), deserve a shot before a parole board.” The oldest juvenile lifer Rofe encountered in his research has been in prison since 1953 for a murder he committed at the age of 15. “I have to ask, what harm is an 80 year old man going to cause if he were to experience the last few years (of his life) living in his lawyer’s house if he was to be released?” Rofe, who filmed parts of “Lost for Life” with an iPhone and raised financing via Kickstarter, interviewed supporters and relatives of his subjects prior to going into super-maximum prisons to meet them himself. “I don’t go (into prison) with a list of questions,” he said. “I go in and connect with a human being and we have a conversation. I tell them about myself in the same way that they’re telling me about themselves.” “I try to go and have as quote-unquote ‘normal’ an exchange with somebody as I possible can — but obviously there’s nothing really normal about this. We’re talking about pretty unique circumstances.” Rofe’s next project, “Swift Current,” focuses on former National Hockey League player Sheldon Kennedy, whose revelations about childhood sexual abuse upended the world of Canadian youth ice hockey. Kennedy’s story, he said, was “Penn State 16 years before it happened” — a reference to the 2011 sex abuse scandal that engulfed Pennsylvania State University’s hallowed American football team. With the spread of the Internet and the growing availability of better and cheaper video cameras, Rofe believes this is a golden age for documentary film-making. “Oh, my god, absolutely,” he said. “Everybody has access to cameras (and) there are more and more avenues for distribution. No-one can tell you no. Everybody has a chance to make something that can go viral.”

Crazy Weather – Misadventures of Me Skip to content Misadventures of Me Life One (mis)Adventure at a Time Menu Life & Living DIY & Decor Let’s Eat! Outdoor Life Trips & Travel Beauty & Style Health & Fitness Life & Living Crazy Weather Posted by Stephanie on May 25, 2011 Believe it or not, once upon a time, long ago, I lived in Joplin. Yes the same Joplin that had been decimated by the tornado that ripped through on Sunday evening. I don’t know if it got anywhere close to where I used to live, but my heart goes out to the people of the city, and I hope they are able to find all their loved ones and find some peace as well. This weather has been absolutely crazy this year! Crazy snow storms turning into crazy thunderstorms and tornadoes. What the hell? I’m really over it and I;m hoping that it decides to move on through sooner rather than later. Because I haven’t been able to get ANY freaking training in at all! Typically I would just go run at the FH gym, but when there are possible tornado warnings and watches and all that other crap, it makes me not really enthused about leaving my house. So fingers crossed that after this batch of storms passes through we might be able to have a couple of weeks with semi-normal weather. I say semi-normal because I don’t want it to be a billion degrees out either 😦 Only a couple of weeks until we head down to the Lake for another Dockdogs event. Pretty exciting stuff yeah? I can’t wait as it is one of my favorite events of the year! Like this: Like Loading...

How much is that doggie on the billboard? Barley, the pixelated pooch in question, appears to follow shoppers around East London's Westfield Stratford mall in OgilvyOne's "Looking for You" campaign, designed to promote pet adoption for Battersea Dogs and Cats Home. A chip secretly placed in leaflets handed out to shoppers triggers the canine's capering, enabling him to follow the shoppers from one digital board to the next. "Battersea rehomes animals all over the U.K. and beyond, and this could help encourage people to choose to rescue a dog," says Carly Whyborn, head of operations at Battersea. "We're using innovative technology in a way that has never been seen before, and we hope more of our abandoned animals find loving homes because of it." OgilvyOne worked on the project with Framestore, RFIDiom and Exterion Media. The two-minute campaign video was produced by Creation Company Film. A couple of years back, the agency crafted a similar, much-praised digital outdoor campaign for British Airways. Called "The Magic of Flying," it featured billboards that showed a boy pointing at actual BA flights as they passed overhead. (The signs also disclosed flight numbers and destinations.) The Battersea concept is more basic, yet firmly on-brand, a simple high-tech tug at the heartstrings to remind Brits of the life-changing magic adopted pets can bring to their lives. Barley has already found a new owner, but Battersea and other rescue organizations have plenty of dogs and cats that would happily follow you home for real.

HARRISON, N.J. (June 9, 2017) – New York Red Bulls II (5-5-2, 17 points) return home for a rematch of the 2016 USL Eastern Conference Finals against Louisville City FC (5-1-4, 19 points) on Sunday at 4 p.m. ET at MSU Soccer Park. Sunday also represents all kids 12 and under entering for free. Get Your Tickets HERE. New York enters the match riding a two-game winning streak, their first of sorts this USL season. Red Bulls II earned their first road victory of the year last weekend at Richmond Kickers with Brandon Allen netting the game-winner in the 38th minute. Goalkeeper Rafael Diaz also earned his first clean sheet of the year making five saves. Both Brandon Allen and Vincent Bezecourt remain among the USL leaderboards in goals and assists with seven goals and six assists alike. The last time these two teams faced off was in last year’s USL Eastern Conference Finals where NYRB II defeated Louisville City FC on PKs, 4-3. Louisville is coming off a narrow 1-0 win Thursday at home over the Charlotte Independence. Just two points between third and fourth place in the Eastern Conference standings separate both teams. NYRB II has made MSU Soccer Park their fortress at home this season going 4-1-0 this season. Sunday’s match can be seen via the USL Match Center. Follow @NYRBII on Twitter for live in-game updates.

The Theocratic Age "Since the literary canon is at issue here, I include only those religious, philosophical, historical, and scientific writings that are themselves of great aesthetic interest. I would think that, of all the books that are in this first list, once the reader is conversant with the Bible, Homer, Plato, the Athenian dramatists, and Virgil, the crucial work is the Koran... "I have included some Sanskrit works, scriptures and fundamental literary texts, because of their influence on the Western canon. The immense wealth of ancient Chinese literature is mostly a sphere apart from Western literary tradition and is rarely conveyed adequately in the translations available to us."

The Aristocratic Age "It is a span of five hundred years from Dante's Divine Comedy through Goethe's Faust, Part Two [1321-1832], an era that gives us a huge body of reading in five major literatures: Italian, Spanish, English, French, and German. In this and in the remaining lists, I sometimes do not mention individual works by a canonical master, and in other instances I attempt to call attention to authors and books that I consider canonical but rather neglected. From this list onward, many good writers who are not quite central are omitted...."
