Angela Merkel Discovers the Internet — and Inspires a Meme
- By Park MacDougaldPark Macdougald is an editorial researcher at Foreign Policy.
Barack Obama's visit to Berlin may have sparked a wave of commentary and analysis, but it was an offhand remark from German Chancellor Angela Merkel that gave birth to a meme. Responding to questions about the National Security Agency's PRISM program during a joint press conference with the U.S. president, Merkel noted that the "Internet is new territory, uncharted territory to all of us."
"And it also enables our enemies," she continued. "It enables enemies of a free, liberal order, to use it, to abuse it, to bring a threat to all of us, to threaten our way of life. And this is why we value cooperation with the United States on questions of security.
Sounds fairly innocuous, right? The web may not exactly be a new invention, but governments around the world are still assessing its impact and capabilities, especially after the recent revelations about American spying. Unfortunately for Merkel, German Internet users are not so forgiving. The German term Merkel used for "uncharted territory," neuland (literally "new land"), conjured up images of 15th-century explorers discovering previously unknown lands. For context, the closest analogy for Americans might be former Sen. Ted Stevens' infamous description of the Internet as a "series of tubes."
Germans are nothing if not avid web users (German Wikipedia is the third-largest edition of the online encyclopedia in the world, after English and Dutch, even though German is only the 12th-most spoken language on the globe), and Merkel's comments quickly spawned a full-blown Internet meme — replete with a hashtag, #neuland.
Some expressed frustration about seemingly out-of-touch politicians legislating something they can't understand:
MT @kuhmuh If people who call the internet #neuland could stop making laws about it – that would be great! pic.twitter.com/EbgccoS5Er — Kate (@livefeeltaste) June 20, 2013
Others responded with a little more humor. The caption reads, "June 19th, 2013 – Merkel discovers #neuland"
Some Photoshop efforts bordered on the disturbing, like this one:
And others, like this rent-a-car company, rushed to capitalize on the chancellor's remarks. The caption reads, "For all those who want to discover Neuland"
Here, a flash video, entitled, "Merkel's travels in Neuland," depicts the chancellor dressed as a conquistador arriving on a tropical island:
And inevitably — per a kind of Godwin's Law for Internet memes — someone finally brought up cats:

Nathan Horton has Bruins leading Sabres, 1-0
|03.10.11 at 7:42 pm ET
The David Krejci line remains red-hot, and as a result the Bruins are leading the Sabres, 1-0, on a Nathan Horton goal.
Horton scored his 19th over the year at 8:54, finishing a 3-on-2 with Milan Lucic and Krejci getting the assists. The play came about thanks to nice work by Adam McQuaid in breaking it out of the Bruins' zone.
The period featured a fight between Gregory Campbell and Cody McCormick, with the Sabres forward winning the bought. Each team had power plays that lasted just seconds, as Tyler Myers went to the box for tripping just five seconds after Shawn Thornton went off for interference.
Tim Thomas had an impressive period, making big saves on Jordon Leopold and Jason Pominville, the latter of which he made by quickly sliding from side to side to rob the Bruins killer (eight points in five games vs. Boston this season).
The B's are outshooting the Sabres, 15-11.

No, they weren't happy to see him. And they couldn't have made it any clearer or yelled it any louder.
New York Mayor de Blasio was booed at Citi Field on Monday, even before he had a chance to throw out the first pitch.
Throwing from the front of the pitcher's mound, de Blasio threw a strike on the outside corner of the plate to Mets starting catcher Travis d'Arnaud. But fans booed again as he walked off the field.
De Blasio, a proud Boston Red Sox fan, donned a Mets cap and jersey with a No. 6 on it in honor of 1960s-era Red Sox player Rico Petrocelli.
"He's trying to do too much too soon. He should learn the job first, then make changes," said Eddie Facenta, 38, of Queens. "He doesn't represent a New York team. Everyone knows that Giuliani was a Yankees fan."
He doesn't represent New York either.

Star Jones was among celebrities volunteering their time and talent for the National Day of Service.
The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once asked, "What are you doing to help others?" As Inauguration Weekend kicked off, the entire United States sought to answer that question with the National Day of Service.
Held on the weekend before Martin Luther King Day, President Barack Obama and his family started the tradition four years ago to get people to do something for the good of their fellow man.
But the first family and Vice President Joe Biden aren't the only ones supporting the cause. Whether it was someone in Oklahoma cultivating the Urban Harvest Garden, or volunteers continuing to help the cleanup effort in New Jersey after Hurricane Sandy, people all across the country were lending a helping hand.
In Washington, D.C., thousands more wanted to know how (and who) they could help. The Service Summit on the National Mall provided them with more than 100 ways to do just that in six different sectors: Community, Education, Faith, Health, Economic and Military. Endorsing the cause of volunteerism were a host of celebrities, including Angela Bassett, Eva Longoria, Chelsea Clinton and Yolanda Adams. TV host-turned-author Star Jones also came out to talk about health, and she was easy to spot.
Decked out in red from head to toe for the American Heart Association, Star explained why the organization was so important to her. "When I go red, I really go red! I have to represent every single day for heart health here in America," she told he crowd of eager would-be volunteers. "More women die of heart disease than all forms of cancer combined. One in 26 women will die from breast cancer. One in 3 women will die from heart disease."
Having had a brush with heart disease, which required her to have open heart surgery, admittedly came as a shock to Star. As a Black woman, she thought the condition was "an old White man's disease." But she learned that heart disease, which affects 22 million women, is the #1 killer of women and Black people.
Now with a "grateful, determined and healthy heart," Star said she has become dedicated to the mission of educating people about heart disease and how to prevent it. After her speech, she posted up at the booth for the American Heart Association to answer any questions the crowd might have and to snap pictures with excited fans. She could even be overheard discussing heart-healthy recipes that she enjoys. As far as her fashion for the day was concerned, the public should expect to see Star in a lot more red.
"I'm obsessed with red," she mentioned off-handedly. There were even whispers that Star pledged to wear red throughout the entire month of February to support her cause.
Although heart health is near and dear to Star, she noted that there were plenty of other ways to help out in America. To encourage the crowd to volunteer their time for the worthy cause of their choic, Star recalled some wisdom from her aunt, stating, "The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in service to others."

Say you work in Southern California for a small or medium-sized company. You want to sell pretzels in Vietnam. Or electric power cable in China. Or lipstick in Denmark.
How to go about it?
Maybe you're ignorant. Maybe you're scared. Maybe you just want a leg up.
Chances are, you will eventually find your way to the local outpost – whether in Irvine, Los Angeles, Ontario or San Diego – of a federal agency known as the United States Commercial Service.
In an era of tax-slashing and bureaucrat-bashing, this network of 1,500 professionals, based in 221 cities around the world, earns kudos from business executives for the practicality and sophistication of its commercial diplomacy.
Whether tucked away in Southern California office parks, or working behind the walls of palatial embassies, they are the ground forces in President Obama's ambitious push to double U.S. exports over five years.
Marv Sepe, chief operating officer of CTC Global, an Irvine manufacturer of electric power cable, joined a renewable energy trade mission to China in 2010, courtesy of the commercial service.
"Only 15 percent of the world's transmission is in the U.S.," he said. "I wanted to find distributors and people to buy my product."
The agency set up a dozen meetings for Sepe in three Chinese cities. Face-to-face with officials from regional utilities and the state electrical grid, he touted his firm's high-tech cable, which cuts energy loss along power lines by a third and, unlike steel cables, doesn't corrode.
For CTC Global, with 110 employees and about $40 million in annual sales, "it was a tremendous credibility boost to be showcased by our government," Sepe said. "Our brand recognition soared."
As a result, the firm now works with a Chinese industry advisory group on green tech and gets regular requests for bids on state projects. The company has also launched a joint venture in China.
And Sepe has joined the U.S. Commerce Department's "Southern California District Export Council," a group of experienced local executives who counsel would-be exporters.
With its still-vast manufacturing base, the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Santa Ana area ranks as the third largest metro exporter in the U.S., behind New York and Houston. Home to the nation's biggest port complex, it is the gateway to Asia's fast-growing consumer markets.
Despite a big dip during the recession, regional merchandise exports jumped from $54.4 billion in 2007 to $75 billion in 2012, the latest breakdown available. Mexico is the region's biggest trading partner, followed by Canada, China, Japan and South Korea.
Big Southern California companies such as Allergan Inc., Mattel Inc. or The Walt Disney Co. rarely if ever need help with exporting their pharmaceuticals, toys or movies.
Commercial service specialists tend to focus on smaller players. With 95 percent of the world's customers living outside the U.S., according to the Commerce Dept., exporting is often the key to expansion, as well as a major job engine in any local economy.
"Doing business outside the U.S. is so different," said Richard Swanson who oversees Commercial Service offices in California, Nevada and Hawaii. "The biggest hurdle is fear of the unknown.
"But we're here to mitigate the risks. We have experts in every global market, and in every sector from aerospace to medical devices to franchising."

They give a nigga with no mac another kinda game
See money talks in another kinda slang
from Lupe Fiasco – Theme Music to A Drive By Lyrics on Genius
A person with a diamond encrusted chain is considered cool no matter how lame that person may be, because diamonds cost a lot and someone with diamonds probably have money. Money talks much louder than words in terms of being cool and having game. So a person with diamonds and money do not need to know how to spit game at a girl all he has to do is flash his chain and money

Your initial question might be, can I stop the process? In most cases, you won't be able to prevent the government from acquiring your land, but you are entitled to just compensation under eminent domain law. Learn more about eminent domain generally and what you're entitled to receive, or continue reading through our tabs and pages to learn about the Ohio eminent domain process, your rights as a property owner and hiring an Ohio eminent domain attorney.
Did you know that most eminent domain attorneys work on a contingent fee basis? With this fee structure, the attorney assumes the risk of earning a fee. Also, Ohio law directs the condemning authority or government to pay a portion of a property owner's attorney's fees when certain criteria are met. Continue browsing the tabs and additional pages for more information.
Did you know that the Castle Coalition gave Ohio a D when it comes to property owners' protection against eminent domain? Continue reading to learn more.
Attorney's fees in Ohio are recoverable if the final judgement is 125% of the offer. However, the reimbursement is capped at 25% of the amount by which the judgement exceeds the offer (Ohio – R.C. § 163.21). Attorney's fees, costs and expenses may also be awarded in the state of Ohio if the court determines that the property being
If you're affected by eminent domain, you should obtain a consultation so that you know and understand your rights before taking any action. Remember, the government is like any buyer, they will want to purchase your property as cheaply as possible, and their appraisers may neglect to consider damages that can lead to a larger amount of just compensation.
Very few attorneys can claim expertise in the area of eminent domain law. Make sure you consult with an eminent domain trial attorney who can effectively identify damages and select the necessary experts. Your attorney should also be able to interface with the condemning authority and be willing to take your case to trial if negotiations can not be reached. Contact us for a free case evaluation.

This report is based on 231 interviews, including interviews conducted with 164 prisoners (114 men, 44 women, and 6 children) and 30 prison officers at 16 prisons between November 2010 and March 2011. Prisons were selected to represent a diverse range of facilities based on type, status (formerly locally or centrally administered), size, and level of congestion. Access was granted by the commissioner general of prisons as a part of Human Rights Watch's routine human rights monitoring in prisons, regularly carried out in Uganda for several years.
Table 1: Prisoner Interviewee Characteristics[1]
In prisons visited, researchers identified prisoners to approach for interviews in two ways: 1) according to a randomized method involving choosing prisoners from the available prisoner registers, and 2) targeted selection of prisoners to ensure representation of certain categories, including those who had been transferred from one prison to another to receive medical care, individuals identified to Human Rights Watch as having undergone specific types of punishment, and women (particularly women who had been pregnant or who had cared for a small child while in prison).
Interviews were conducted in English or in Lubwisi, Luganda, Lukonzo, Luo, Lusoga, Lwamba, Runyoro-Rutoro, Runyankole-Rukiga, Samia, or Swahili, with translation into English. One interview was conducted in French. The purpose of the research was explained to each prisoner, who was asked whether he or she was willing to participate, and offered anonymity. Prisoners were told that they could end the interview at any time or decline to answer any questions without negative consequence. All interviews were conducted privately, with one prisoner at a time. Each prisoner interviewed and quoted in this report has been given a pseudonym to protect the prisoner's identity and for the prisoner's security; surnames have been omitted to conceal prisoners' ethnicities.
Prisoners who were interviewed averaged an age of 31 years. Overall, the most common charges of the prisoners interviewed were theft, murder, and defilement. The time the prisoners interviewed had spent detained ranged considerably between the different types of prisons visited, averaging 22 months, but highest among prisoners at farm prisons (on average 48 months). Prisoners often reported having been moved between prisons, and the time prisoners had spent in the facility in which they were interviewed also varied considerably, but averaged nine months.
Human Rights Watch researchers also conducted facility tours and interviewed 30 prison staff members at the 16 prisons visited, in addition to the Uganda Prisons Service medical authority. In some cases, official titles of individuals are not given for security reasons or at the request of the individual. At the conclusion of field research, Human Rights Watch sent a letter to the Uganda Prisons Service commissioner general of prisons on April 8, 2011, (see Appendix) requesting a response by April 29, 2011 to numerous issues raised in the report; Human Rights Watch did not receive an official response to this letter within the timeframe. Human Rights Watch again requested a response on May 13, 2011, and provided an additional summary of the issues presented in the report on May 16, 2011, at the request of prison authorities. An email response from prison authorities to some of the questions Human Rights Watch had posed was received by email on May 19, 2011, and by letter on June 29, 2011, as this report went to press. That information is reflected throughout the report.
Researchers also interviewed 15 members of the communities surrounding Sentema, Kasangati, and Ntenjeru Prisons (all Central Region), and three prison officers at those prisons, specifically about the practice of hiring out prisoner labor to private landowners.
Finally, researchers interviewed 18 representatives from local and international organizations working on prison, HIV/AIDS, and health issues; health workers within the Ugandan government; and donor governments and agencies.
Caution should be taken in generalizing the results of this research to all prisoners in Uganda. Because Human Rights Watch oversampled prisoners in Kampala-area prisons, which have greater resources than rural prisons, the percentage of prisoners receiving medical testing and care in this report may be greater than the national average. Also, the selection of prisoners within each prison was not perfectly representative. Researchers tried to systematically and randomly select prisoners; however, this was not always possible. Because of the diverse conditions among prisons and because specific groups of prisoners (noted above) were intentionally oversampled, Human Rights Watch has, to the greatest extent feasible, presented disaggregated data according to prison and prisoner type.
This report is part of a series of reports on health in prisons in Africa by Human Rights Watch. The objective of the series of reports is to examine health and human rights issues in prisons in Africa in the context of diverse health and justice policy, reform efforts, and resource availability.
[1] For the purposes of this report, the prisons visited are grouped into the following categories: Farm Prisons (Kitalya and Muinaina Farm Prisons); Former Local Administration Prisons (LAPs) (Bubukwanga Prison, Butuntumura Prison, Masafu Prison, Masaka Ssaza Prison, Muduuma Prison, Mutufu Prison); and Regional Reception Center Prisons (Fort Portal Men's Prison, Fort Portal Women's Prison, Masaka Main Prison, Murchison Bay Prison, Jinja Main Prison, Jinja Women's Prison, Luzira Upper Prison, Luzira Women's Prison). Data in the following tables will represent the responses of adult prisoners interviewed.

Suzanne Dikker's current research merges cognitive neuroscience, education, and performance art in an effort to understand the brain basis of human social interaction. Together with media artist Matthias Oostrik and other collaborators from both the sciences and the arts (e.g. Marina Abramovic), she uses portable EEG (emotiv) in a series of crowd-sourcing neuroscience experiments / interactive brain installations that investigate the role of brainwave synchronization between two or more people in successful communication. These experiments are executed outside of traditional laboratory settings, such as schools and museums (e.g. the American Museum of Natural History, the Garage Center for Contemporary Culture, Eye Institute Amsterdam).
After completing her PhD in Linguistics at New York University, Suzanne received postdoctoral training at the Sackler Institute for Developmental Psychobiology and New York University. She is currently affiliated with David Poeppel's lab at New York University and Jos van Berkum's lab at Utrecht University, with support from the Dutch Organization for Scientific Research (VENI Award) and the National Science Foundation (NSF-INSPIRE). She further co-curates the American Museum of Natural History Sackler Brain Bench, the Marina Abramovic Institute Art+Science Presents, and the Annual Watermill Art & Science: Insights into Consciousness Workshop.

8800 series card + X-Plane = NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 30, L1
5 Attachment(s)
Although there is already a big "NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 30, L1" thread, I wanted to start a new one, after now there turned up some more people, who have the exact same problem as I do.
We are talking about a freeze of the X-Server when playing X-Plane (OpenGL flight sim), and often (but not always - depending on how fast the freeze occurs) logging in /var/log/messages:
Now to the details. The problem has shown it's ugly face the most time in X-Plane. Earlier I thought it was an absolutely random issue, but after many experiments it turns out, that it must be bound to a specific constellation of data (scenery) in the rendering pipeline. Because there are some situations, where we can easily reproduce the bug, without much fuss. It seems to correlate with:
There is also one more observation from my side: in many cases I can see rendering glitches, before the freeze happens. In outside view this means, that suddenly all the ground textures begin to disappear, and the rendering becomes sluggish. Sometimes, the sim manages to recover (when the outside rotation is stopped immediately) and in those situations - with some luck - X doesn't freeze. In this situation one should already see a bunch of new NVRM:XID messages with dmesg. This is also the best case - a tip for others - to create the nvidia-bug-report, as you are still in the same X session in which the problems occurred. Though, sometimes the computer already freezes up and I have noticed that the freeze - at the same airports - can come so quickly, that there isn't even a NVRM:XID message in the log (this is the worst case).
I have also made the additional observation, that lowering rendering settings - thus reducing the pressure on the 3D hardware - can make the issue disappear, so for those who try to reproduce I highly recommend to go with very high settings (I will attach my settings).
Finally some words about my hardware/software/config (for NVidia, before you ask the standard questions - which has already been done in mail and checked):
(as we see, he uses an 2.6.19 64bit kernel)
Another one I have only mail contact, and he is already verifying/reproducing the problem too on his side. He has, by the way, an 2.6.18 kernel in 32bit mode.
So I see very different configurations, but every one of them has the same issue. This very much seems to point to problems with the current drivers + 8800 series card.
Now I also attach - although I have sent some of them to NVidia before per mail - nvidia-bug-reports, and a text file with all my settings in X-Plane, which help to reproduce the issue (and also one of the situations files, which start you at WN76)! For 8800GTX users it is maybe recommended to even push a bit further by setting 8x anti aliasing.
I ask everybody, who has an:
And NVidia, please help us help you to pin (and hopefully fix) this issue. If you had X-Plane 8.60 with Global Scenery, you should already be able to reproduce the issue with the informations I supported.
Andras Fabian / alpilotx
Please only post your NVRM:XID problems here, if you use X-Plane, or have an absolutely similar issue with 8800 series card. Thank you!

---- Copy/paste from another thread, in order to gather all the informations in a unique thread -----
Nevertheless, juste before the kernel panic, I managed to launch the nvidia-bug-report.sh script, using a serial console, and get the result file saved.
My machine setup, is different and actually is :
- Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe (so it's an nForce4 chipset) motherboard with latest bios (1016)
- AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+
- 2 GB of RAM (4 banks)
- 1 x Leadtek 8800 GTS with 640 MB VRAM onboard
- 1 x 500W S12 Seasonic PSU
I'm using a Gentoo Linux 64 bits setup.
I'm using a 2.6.19-gentoo-r5 kernel and Nvidia driver version 100.14.03.
Btw, alpilotx, can you try to takeoff from DAOI (El Chelif, or something like that in Algeria) between 6:30 AM and 7:00 AM ?
When I do that, most of the time, the Xid scenario occurs and ends in a kernel panic.
Do you have the same symptoms/problem ?
Other than this case with X-Plane, I have several other times where the Xid error problem appears, most notably when playing multiple videos at the same time, while using Beryl. I'm preparing a complete setup to help Nvidia support reproduce it.
This bug must go into oblivion, now.
And I will do all I can to make this happen.
--------------- End of Copy/Paste -------------------------------------
Some news:
I went on a memtest86+ that revealed nothing bad.
My processor is not overclocked.
And, I'm ** nearly exactly ** in the same situation as alpilotx is : Before using my 8800 GTS 640 MB graphic card, I was using an MSI 6600 GT 128 MB graphic on the ** SAME ** machine (well, the PSU is new and was chosen to provide a secure supply to the new gfx card ;) ) I'm using now. And X-plane worked flawlessly during countless hours of flight, "around the world".
Now, I will run the same tests alpilotx ran, to see, if the same tests lead to the same consequences. :)
I'll post the results of my tests tomorrow, I think. ;)
Re: 8800 series card + X-Plane = NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 30, L1
I am also experiencing problems similar to alpilotx. The "total lock up" occurs very quickly and so I haven't been able to send the nvidia bug report.
An example of output from /var/log/messages:
Here are the details of the hardware and software I am using:
AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+
ASUS M2N32-SLI Deluxe nVidia 590 motherboard

Open-GL Vendor: NVIDIA Corp.
Open-GL Renderer: GeForce 8800 GTX/PCI/SSE2/3DNOW! 2.1.0 NVIDIA 97.55
X-Plane 8.60 w/Global scenery
Here are my X-plane settings:
Plane: Piper Malibu
Screen resolution: 1024 x 768
Texture resolution: extreme res

I will "push" these settings to their extreme to determine the "personality" of this problem and post my results.
Re: 8800 series card + X-Plane = NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 30, L1
BUMP (bump)
-> for NVidia, because we posted this stuff over the weekend (and now it was already at page 3)
Re: 8800 series card + X-Plane = NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 30, L1
First of all thank alpilotx for pointing x-plane, I liked so much the demo that I ordered it already :)
Now regarding this issue I tested this scenario:
* DAOI - starting, taking off, and the turning in the direction of the rising sun brings the freeze
but didn't have any problem, now I guess that without the full dvd you don't get the 'heavy' graphics so I'll try testing again after I receive the full package.
Re: 8800 series card + X-Plane = NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 30, L1
Hi gbil!
Yes, in the demo you get nothing compared to the "real thing" with global scenery. So I think, that is no comparison. You also need to make sure:
Re: 8800 series card + X-Plane = NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 30, L1

Hi guys. Thanks for bringing this issue to our attention. I managed to reproduce the problem and filed bug 317652.
Re: 8800 series card + X-Plane = NVRM: Xid (0001:00): 30, L1
Thank you very much NVidia!
Now one question: how can we see/find out, when the bug was addressed in a driver release (whenever it will be)? Do you refer to the bug number in the release notes?

The new driver (100.14.09) stopped the "lock-up" problem for me, but now I've got a new problem. After installing 100.14.09, X-plane is now generating randomly-shaped polygons at a rapid rate. These polygons are in the field of view as you look out the ****pit forward views, side views and also external view (looking at the aircraft from a distance by pressing "A"). This makes X-Plane unusable.
I was able to make it stop by lowering the rendering settings all the way to minimal. Then gradually increasing the settings trying to find the point where the problem starts. Strangely, I was able to raise the rendering settings to extemes without the problem reappearing at least for a while, but then it would reappear.
I ran dmesg to search for NVRM errors, but none were present:confused:
I ran the nvidia bug report anyway (attached) and made some screenshots (attached).
I turned off Composite Extensions but got the same problem.
I tried the 100.14.11 driver and got the same problem.
Any ideas would be appreciated

Dynamic Mouse Trail in Flash
Learn how to create a cool mouse trail effect that gets dynamically generated as your mouse moves.
A popular effect that you can add to your applications is a mouse trail. In case you are not familiar with them, mouse trails are nothing more than some content that follows your mouse around the screen. What makes them a little different from a standard "follow mouse" effect is that they often trail your mouse movement by a few milliseconds. This has the effect of providing you with the illusion of your mouse cursor leaving behind a trail of where it has been in the past.
Creating A Custom Mouse Curser In Flash

Menu that Swings In
The aim of the tutorial is to learn how to create a Menu with swings in and out. When your mouse goes over the gray Menu Bar to the left, the Flash Menu swings into view. You can then click on the Flash menu buttons. When you move your mouse away from the buttons in the Menu swings away.
