MLK Day parade stirs pride, memories
As the instructor, he wanted the project to be driven by his students, who range in age from 18 to 53 and in skill from out-of-work mechanics to one-time managers. His first idea was to design the bus without a roof.
But Billy Castrejon, a former carpenter from Clairemont, bristled at the idea. No, he wanted the bus to look authentic as much as possible.
At 26, he is the same age King was when he organized a 381-day bus boycott that drew global attention to Montgomery, Ala., and Parks' act of defiance.
Montgomery City Lines bus No. 2857 is an attraction now in the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Mich. Ten years ago, it was restored after being rescued from an Alabama field where it held lumber and tools.
'Just as proud'
At 10 feet long, the class project won't fit the 36 passengers who could sit inside the actual bus. But students matched the paint at NAPA Auto Parts, rounded sheet metal into a roof's contours, signaled a Cleveland Avenue destination with a sign above the windshield, even copied advertising for Hanna Paint and another ad asking, "Why fight traffic? Go by bus."
What they accomplished, fittingly, exceeded even their expectations. "The theme of the float is dreams, right?" Castrejon said.
"I've never had a class where people hug themselves at the end of class in the parking lot," Moore said. "It's unbelievable, the camaraderie."
For Brendan Lagather, a 40-year-old former engineering manager from Allied Gardens, making the bus meant more than making something for the school.
"Martin Luther King's vision and dream of an equal society is fantastic," he said. "I'm second-generation American. My wife actually just naturalized so I haven't forgotten what it means to be an immigrant in this country, much less the other sides of race and equality."
For Wilson, the lesson of Rosa Parks and other African Americans remains strong.
"It made us know that we had a history, that we actually had a history, that we had roots like any other culture," she said. "I learned that our people were somebody, contributed to this country and could be somebody."
Wilson has thought a lot about the persona she will adopt Sunday.
"I'll have my little pillbox hat on, and I don't usually wear hats, but Miss Parks usually wore a little pillbox hat or something," she said.
"She was a seamstress but those people in the South, when they left those homes, you didn't know where they worked because they would put their little fancy clothes on and get on that bus and be just as proud."

With no nomination filed for the fifth time in succession, the village panchayat of Koppanapatti in Ponnamaravathy block will have no representatives.
Koppanapatti was bifurcated into Koppanapatti and Konapatti village panchayats way back in 1969. The bifurcation process did more harm than good, triggering some difference of opinion over the jurisdiction of the village administration. Maintenance and enjoyment of a local tank; a school; village lands etc have been the major issues and the residents of Koppanapatti have been demanding the village map, demarcating their jurisdiction.
Initially, they had launched some stir or other. However, to resolve the crisis, the villagers intensified the agitation through the boycott of local body polls since 2006.
Ever since the main election in October 2006, no nomination was filed for the posts of nine ward-members of four village panchayat wards as well as the village panchayat president. Four by-elections were held later — in February and September 2007; September 2008 and February 2009. Apart from these five boycott sessions (one main election in October 2006 and four subsequent by-elections) the villagers, after a persuasive attempt by the officials, participated in the by-election held in February 2008 and filed nominations. However, all the elected representatives, succumbing to the local decision, put in their papers a week after the election in February 2008.
Official sources said that the vacancy had been notified and yet another attempt would be made for the conduct of by-election next year.

Eyes Wide Shut: The Magic of Power and the logic of desire
Whereas before I saw the film as a simple vehicle entertainment although in some cases it was impossible not to notice a few films as a blatantly propagandistic films produced in the Reagan era (Commando, Rambo 3 or the 'eagle' s steelJust to name a few).
In the latter cases, however, noted the absurdity of situations and concepts expressed, I still consider them mere vehicles of entertainment dumber than others, but when viewed without obligation, easily forgettable and in some cases even enjoyable.
Understand what level of scientific propaganda came today, however, has made me completely upset at the sight;
so that now the film apparently free, serious and committed, I look at it with an eye, ready to pick up those signals that can let me know if you have used the techniques of propaganda. If the film takes me I enjoy it; but then I see her from a distance, using an analytical thinking, careful dialogue, symbolism, evocative images and bearing in mind what I have learned so far. Recognizing some of these techniques has become a factor of almost automatic that I do not deny, I often ruin the pleasure of a movie. I feel like that after 5 minutes has already figured out who the murderess to be discovered only at the end; only that in my case, is not to understand the plot in advance but to expose a number of ideas and concepts placed deliberately and cleverly disguised to blend in and get a grip on the minds and on the audience. And when you realize that you fall in his arms. You are no longer seeing a work of art, or even the simple passion of a filmmaker who wants to have fun and entertain, but you face to a well-planned in order to maneuver your opinions ... And realize this fact rather nuisance.
I noticed, however, that the Internet has produced along with its wealth of information is also a new way of watching movies: a lot of people go hunting for hidden symbolism too esoteric style and begin to think that the whole movie is in the hands of the occult elite who want to rule the world and using these films to launch their subliminal messages.
This has naturally created an aura of skepticism among all those people who usually try to rationally analyze the facts, and caused even among those who know the film because he does or has done a series of articles focusing on the ridiculousness see symbols and hidden meanings in films which are often only mere commercial transactions.
I honestly do not know if some of these films are actually handled at the level with the inclusion of occult esoteric symbols put there on purpose; is an interesting but difficult to learn. But one thing is certain: both enthusiasts on the hunt for the symbols of the occult elite, both skeptics laughing over there, they have completely lost sight of a third important aspect:
There are actually so many films made by filmmakers fully aware that using the techniques of which are bosses, they want to convey messages, propaganda, or talk about it would be impossible for them to deal with the sunlight.
You can not understand these films, however, without adequate preparation or adequate cultural research. While in the case of film propaganda, of course, can not be understood by those unfamiliar with the techniques used in propaganda.
In both cases you must have a cultural basis or do a thorough research otherwise remain only speculation as in the case of chemtrails starting to appear in many cartoons; we can not know how much is intentional, that is made on purpose to inoculate this idea in the public or it is simply because of the daily experience of graphic designers and illustrators that being accustomed to seeing such a sky, it also automatically reproduce in their designs.
Speaking of movies that contain messages conveyed through the use of images, even color, music and many other details, I'd like to make you read a review that I consider now as the only review ever output that can explain coherently , documented and argued with all the necessary references, the Stanley Kubrick film Eyes Wide Shut.
I find that this analysis is of great interest because it makes you understand how a film should be analyzed and allows us to understand that without adequate research on every aspect of the film, many things can escape or be completely misunderstood.
Before leaving this interesting read, just add a note that probably escaped the reviewer and I found on the biography of Stanley Kubrick:
Among all the choices are not casual about this movie, to shoot the orgy scene in the mansion / castle symbol of power, Kubrick rented by none other than one of the residences of the Rothschilds. A family that is the occult power of which also speaks the film. Have fun
Eyes Wide Shut: The Magic of Power and the logic of desire
Joseph Rausa
"Who do you think were those guys? It was not any people. If I told you their names, and you do not tell them, but if you do not tell them you sleep more peaceful "
(Victor Ziegler, final dialogue)
"The bloody sacrifice, though more dangerous, and 'more' effective '
(A. Crowley, Magick)
"The woman is exhausted in the whole sex life, in the sphere of mating and reproduction, reports the object of which is the male or the son."
(O. Weininger, Sex and Character)
The last film of the artist, a cherished project already in the seventies, completes the trilogy American. In particular, it binds to the first panel, Shining, Which in some respects is a replica: a family in crisis, contact with environments mysterious and powerful, the tragedy that follows. Maybe Shining was shot by a K who dared not even broach the subject of his chest: Overlook everything 'hidden behind symbols. In Eyes Yet nothing is hidden, from the title: eyes-wide-open-closed, a title radically changed from that of the story (Traumnovelle, Double Dream, 1926), of which K is limited to keep the lattice narrative, expanding with figures (Ziegler) and situations (the magic ritual that opens the orgy) exist in Schnitzler.
Eyes that see and yet not see are those of Bill and Alice, of ordinary people; are also closed eyes struggling to reopen the "servant" Mandy like blindfolded (something that they see and have guessed) of Nightingale. Eyes that if they become too "open", as in the case of the pianist and the girl are closed forever with the '"exile" (Nightingale is sent back to Seattle, the other side of the US, the same city' to which he fled, always starting from a New York "Christmas" another loser Kubrick, the boxer defeated Killer's KissBoth films tell of any pair that, by chance, comes into contact with a scary universe, dominated by violence; also the two films are linked by the presence of dummies, symbols of the "ordinary people" who sees without seeing) or with death (the ritual sacrifice of Mandy).
Eyes set time in the capital of the empire, New York. Does not allude to the power, it shows in his enigmatic brutality '. The "third level" (see what was said around the three levels of the social order in the previous chapter) was drawn with masks in abstract Shining; albeit distant, his iron presence is sensed in the orders that came in peremptory Full Metal JacketAt that place on the borders of Vietnam; Now it appears, at first at the party Ziegler, orgy and then finally in the dialogue "esplicatore" which freezes l '"blinded" Bill.
The film is composed of five parts perfectly balanced, introduced by a prologue and an epilogue concluded by both purely family. The first (the party), the third (the ceremony), and Part V (dialogue) are the places where it appears the power, while the second and fourth start with two confessions of Alice and continue with two odysseys of Bill. It is obvious that the first and the third part are a direct continuation of situations already 'all'Overlook; even the elegant musical score, made of classic, mellow songs of the American tradition, is the same as the composition of some images follows suggestively those of Golden Room.
It was noticed then the masonic character and even satanic sect that left prevalent in persecuting Torrance; these characters are repeated underlined with surprising boldness. In the heart of the film, WHERE 'Bill enters the castle "enchanted" (still probably a century castle, whose ancient solemnity' alluding to the close continuity 'between the rulers of the past and the modern aristocracy who now inhabit it, beyond' each illusory democratic conception; it also refers to the sumptuous home of PathsIn both films the castle is the place of power and in both a party and a box solver in an elegant library dissolve the nodes of the story), attends a ceremony of satanic taste: while resonate solemn and dark litanies (if also felt Overlook), a celebrant consecrated with incense some "priestesses" of pleasure (their statuary nudity 'refers to the naked body of Alice shown in the prologue: the evolution of the protagonist towards un'agognata freedom' sexual moves in that direction, as will demonstrate 'his perverse dream) and sends them as "apostles" to spread the word among their followers, to satisfy their greed while the magnificent soundtrack evokes the soft chanting and melisma of a religiosity' ancient and Oriental flavor: in short, everything seems a caricature of Christianity, its overthrow.
The powerful and silent masked orgy participate (in deference to the famous rule of silence and secrecy of the Order), perfectly masters of '(unique characteristic, as was' often noted, the "master race"), often simple viewers elsewhere energetic actors. The music, which contains the typical sound restless bands (bands present in both Kubrick film, from 2001 with Shining with Full Metal JacketWith a precise meaning already 'widely commented), doubles the mystery and alludes to the secret presenceza emanations devilish black monolith in this castle.
Neither can escape that the password to access it is not 'more' "Denmark" (Schnitzler), but "Fidelio" work or expression of the ideals of freedom and brotherhood of the lodges. The full title of the work, however, is Beethoven Fidelio oder Die Liebe Eheliche (Fidelio or & nbsp; love coniugal): The choice of this slogan sounds so mocking, as related exactly to its opposite (something similar happened with the choir of Schiller Ninth Symphony even Beethoven A Clockwork Orange); K also reveals the illusory nature of the ideals of Freemasonry (equality and brotherhood in words; in fact a rigid hierarchy that separates the elite of power from simple "soldiers" or apprentices) shows the cynicism of the sect, the distance between his theory and its practice (or rather the practice of some of his most clubs' exclusive): Fidelio and 'in fact the work of a profoundly moral author who had taken seriously the noble ideals of the lodges and who did not approve of libertinism (and' known the embarrassment of Beethoven in front of Mozart's Don Giovanni).
Finally, when Bill is discovered and questioned the configuration facing is that of a great master and two supervisors (their colors, red and blue, with white walls, renew their obsession with Kubrick for the colors of the USA flag, colors present in almost every sequence of the film) and the image that depicts an unmistakable figure above shows typical triangular Masonic enclosed in the circle of the "spectators". Also on the soundtrack now resounds the simple and left Mesto.
Speaking, The second piece of the collection of piano miniatures Music sought (1953) Ligeti in which two notes (fa and F sharp), placed at a distance of a semitone upward, drawing air sound symbolic triangles (abba) in a mysterious sound, reminiscent of the sounds' invented by the pianism Debussy. This music still indicates the Masonic power, doubling the visual triangles in triangles sound (we find the same melodic figure, along with many other engraved music typical of the complex sound Masonic symbolism, such as Mozart's last composition, the Masonic cantata Laut Verkunde Unser Freude K623 [1791; Loudly proclaim our joy], directed by the great Salzburg at the opening of the Viennese lodge Zur Hoffnung Neugekronten).
But Bill does not understand. And 'the most' dull protagonists kubrickiani not want to evolve as Alex, Redmond, Jack or Joker; simply tries', in the second odyssey to understand, without success. So 'do not even go towards disaster to people like Pyle tries to change their status without having the means.
Bill is saved by Mandy: with the episode of the death of the prostitute K indicates the power of life and death exercised by the Brotherhood; is an event that lends itself to both readings merely symbolic (the exercise of absolute power over the lives of ordinary people) and esoteric (practices of death as part of satanic rituals aimed at strengthening the sect and its followers).
Eyes the film is bolder than K: Mozart died 'while he was composing a Requiem; K, that irony is, it uses a sequence just a fragment of that Requiem (Provided that it was he who decided that musical score and it is not a sinister allusion; we do not know at what point of completeness was the copy prepared by the artist shortly before his death), he could not see made this film he considered ( rightly) his masterpiece. The sudden deaths of both hovers a mystery.
Analyzing in a more 'detailed the gloomy ceremony we note that the sequence lasts exactly 18 minutes, divided into three distinct parts: the ritual of consecration (6 minutes), the orgy (6 minutes), the questioning as a prelude to human sacrifice ( 6 minutes): so secretly K alludes to the consignee mentioned in the castle, the 666 of Revelation, Satan. The ritual seems to be inspired by the magical text more 'known of the twentieth century, Magick (1911-29) of Aleister Crowley (who loved soprannominarsi own Great Beast 666): Circle in the magician conjures evil powers; the words recited by the celebrant, properly rendered incomprehensible, supported by Canon use of incense (substance favored by Crowley in its ceremonial), call those forces manifest in the Circle.
"In the operations of nature unequivocally evil, or that rely on the powers of evil, black or red robes are in character with the type of ceremony" (Richard Cavendish, Black magic, 1967); Indeed red robes and black are prevalent in the rite of consecration and sacrifice in the final. In the central part, devoted to "sex magic" widely theorized by Crowley, the "priestesses" consecrated by the sorcerer spread among the followers of the evil energies appeared in the Circle, through erotic practices, in a sort of black Eucharist. Then comes the moment of sacrifice to the gods' (remember that the sect claimed the Overlook from Jack in the substance of the human sacrifices; nor can go unnoticed that Mandy and Wendy [Torrance] two intended victims, emblems of a helpless weakness, have a very similar name).
Cavendisch states that "in the modern ritual the victim is often sacrificed at the climax of the ritual," while Crowley explains in chapter The bloody sacrificeThat: "Blood and 'life ... every living thing and' a storehouse of energy quantity 'variable according to size and the health of the animal. On the death of the animal this energy is liberated suddenly. So 'the animal must be killed within the Circle ... For the more' high spiritual operation is necessary to choose the victim which contains the power more 'great and pure. Boy of perfect innocence and high intelligence and 'the victim more' satisfactory and more 'suitable. "The argument biographer Crowley attruibuisce assertions even more' relevant:" The supreme rite should create a special atmosphere through the death of the victim. With this rite could reach the summit of Magick. The best thing would be to sacrifice a girl, possibly willing victim, 'cause if it was ill-disposed to sacrifice, could introduce a current hostile "(John Symonds, The Great Beast, In 1951, then expanded in 1958). The purpose 'of the whole ritual, rite that even Crowley defines secret and suitable "only for purposes important", therefore, is to emphasize the communion of the unknown with Powerful Forces of Evil, and that communion' for them a source of constant reinforcement.
"Do what you want", the famous motto of Crowley, is well suited to Ziegler and his friends. In short, if Aquino was inspired 2001 for his satanic Temple of Set (1975; see what was said in the chapter on Shining), K, in turn, seems to agree with him, adhering completely to the most 'widespread practices of black magic ritual in the castle everything seems to turn to the dark powers hidden behind the & nbsp; monolith.
Certainly Eyes also speaks of love, eroticism and marital issues (remember the full title of the Fidelio). But this issue much more 'obvious, that later' unleashed a print embarrassed in front of the esoteric aspects of the film, not 'the main issue. Certainly it is intertwined with the heart of the work, or the relationship between ordinary people and modern aristocracy, and indeed K is the issue of power on the ground of their own sexuality.
In the dimension "peaceful" and urban Eyes, Men of power are revealed those not within complex socio-political events (Strangelove, A Clockwork Orange, Barry Lyndon), But rather 'in their use the bodies of others for their own pleasure. Ziegler, after which the dialogues ceremonious welcomes Bill to the party, reveals his true character in contact with the body of Amanda naked and dying. In the cold bath (still blue-red-white for bathrobe, curtains, walls) the embarrassed host (and 'had to "reveal" to Bill) in a hurry to get rid of that body "inefficient." Downstairs another powerful, Sandor Szavost (Hungarian, in homage to the cross-cutting nature of modern and cosmopolitan aristocracy of power) attempt to blatantly steal the body of Alice (body, not surprisingly, shown in the opening sequence, indicating the center of the work, the sex drive) enhancing the purely and subtly erotic femininity '(the explanation of marriage as a royal road to the wildest sexual pleasures) while two models attempt to seduce Bill, to bring "where does the' rainbow ".
Rainbow: arch / bridge of light; Bowman (2001; the term appears on a billboard during the second protagonist's odyssey from New York): man-bow; around these words K weaves an allusion to possible "evolution" of the Bill in the normal direction of an "increase of light" (to use terminology Masonic), a sexuality 'free, uninhibited, ready to seize any stimulus, no brake (also appear in the orgy two homosexuals: participating in the dance). Rainbow and 'in fact the name of the shop of masks in which a wretched father prostitutes baby daughter (the little Lolita whispers something in the ear of Bill probably obscene, so' as Humbert in Lolita, the key sequence of the film) and is the place that gives Bill a "bridge / arch" (bow) to another place, a world of complete realization of amoral if 'place "beyond good and evil." And 'finally even to peep the eighteenth century: the libertine culture, which is also closely linked to the Masonic, a Casanova or a De Sade. Eighteenth century are the castle and the masks of the ceremony.
A Bill will have many opportunities' to 'evolve', but he is too influenced by the culture of weakness and conformity. In environments of the protagonist abound Christmas trees, signs of Christianity that primary responsibility of an ethics of renunciation and restraint that, for K, finally results in simple weakness and submission, if not dull mediocrity.
The story of Bill ends it in a toy store, in a "gray" Christmas atmosphere, broken only by the dry, strong-willed final affirmation of Alice around the need 'to "fuck" infected (in reality' in the dream) more ' Bill, from his contacts with the optical libertine of the Mighty, the woman appears lost and uncertain about its future than all'impaurito spouse.
On the contrary, in the environments of Power signs "Christians", if present, are placed in a marginal position, while appearing more "clues": the feast of Ziegler takes place in a blaze of "Light", in which the stars abound (you 'already' told of their character Masonic Full Metal Jacket); the home of the powerful advisor and prostitute appear masks (allusions orgy as well as the duplicity of Power, its rules of anonymity and silence).
In conclusion Eyes tells, in its way, the eternal struggle between Freemasonry and Christianity understood as strengths and weaknesses (in line with the entire work of the author).
After the first festival, in a homely atmosphere of boredom and disinterest, the couple try to exorcise the daily dullness smoking marijuana; under the influence of the grass lose control (another sign of their mediocrity ') and Alice confesses that she was attracted to a military seen only once, to the point of being willing to let Bill and the child to the man. Alice is not about love, dimension totally absent in the unmistakable cinema K; love is just a wound that weakens an avoidable loss of control that can not 'be of interest to the author.
On the contrary Alice speaks of total fierce physical attraction, not unlike that which animates the wild orgy pairs. The Bill silly now "sees", intuits something not imagined: the femininity 'and' pure sexuality ', obsessive search for mating; its tranquility 'and' shock, his pride wounded for him Alice will not be & nbsp; lower than before. Nor is it a case that the object of desire of Alice is a military (not 'in that Schnitzler), a warrior symbol of superior strength & nbsp; (The "second level" of which you and 'said, commenting Full Metal Jacket).
Bill began his first odyssey (the strong bond with 2001 and 'emphasized by the presence on the opening credits of the waltz the Suite for Jazz Orchestra No. 2 [1938] Shostakovich, a kind of blood and mocking caricature of Strauss waltzes so 'as the perfect "dance space" spaceships contrasts with the lost, wandering messy land of the protagonist); wants revenge and has now the opportunity ': the dissatisfied Marion, the daughter of the director died, attacks him in the room where he lay lifeless body of his father, but Bill does not dare, can not get out of their size. Marion and her boyfriend, two characters lifeless, constitute a doubling of Bill and Alice; even physically resemble. In a room reminiscent of the one in which Bowman dies and is reborn (eighteenth-century furnishings in both), in front of the lifeless body of Nathanson, certainly a powerful (they say the house elegant and severe; the presence of masks; the marginality 'signs Christmas), Bill does not "born again" does not evolve; embarrassed leaves and flees.
The prostitute and 'a more obvious target, but also with her Bill leaves after hearing his wife's voice on the phone. Meanwhile, in the path leading from the prostitute Marion, Bill has crossed a "herd" of violent boys who has insulted and called "fagot" are the droogs Alex and marines of Animal establishing the distance between them and the tormented weak protagonist. Eyes costituisce also a kind of meeting place of all the figures of cinema Kubrick; in this sense it is truly a work summary.
The third leg of the odyssey and 'the Sonata Café. In local Bill Nightingale is the friend who plays the role of unwitting messenger of the Mighty, similar to that of Lloyd Overlook (again confirms the physical resemblance of the two actors). The restaurant, nestled in a deep red, the color of blood, is the logical preamble to the atmosphere prevailing in the cloistered halls of the castle. Nightingale, a servant of the powerful, speaks with deference and mobile shelve suddenly playful tones of the ongoing conversation with Bill to stiffen in an attitude of "obedience".
The fourth stage and 'the Rainbow, place the arc and the rain, the "light" and uninhibited pleasure: two perverts, cheerful Japanese leaders also symbolic of a race allowed to share power the US, taking advantage of a tantalizing Lolita after paying the fare to the father. Everything is on sale in the universe USA: money, sort of neo-pagan deities, is the element that establishes the distinction between aristocracy venal and ordinary people. Bill, after all, also means account in English; and during his odysseys squanders large sums to get what he wants. The value of people is measured in dollars: the powerful Ziegler recognizes the skill of a specialist at which 'was in care, even by the account balance that had to pay; Milich, the father of Lolita, in the second meeting with Bill is explicit: "do not just sell costumes," he says, alluding to the young; the same protagonist is identified as an intruder in the ceremony because of its relative "poverty" (the taxi, the costume for hire). However, even in the fourth stage the attitude of Bill and 'moralistic rather than' fit nell'orgetta vaguely pedophile, anticipation "poor" (but the Japanese are still junior partners of Power; their country 'was completely destroyed by the Americans in War and then rebuilt under their control) of the solemn ceremony of sexual magic, call the police, nor hearken unto whispers lustful girl.
The long gallery of female figures focuses on the woman in relation to his sexuality, his innate desire to mate. Alice lives in the boredom of a sexless universe family; mother of the family feels useless, having already '"completed" its primary function. In contrast, all other female figures appear more 'life as "professionals" of love: the two models, Amanda / Mandy (the name and' anything but random), Domino and Sally, the Lolita Rainbow, the " priestesses "are an active model of femininity which Alice feels a burning nostalgia. Universe Kubrick the woman, certainly marginal, is connected solely with the eroticism and playback. K seems to share the vision of women present in a famous and "uncomfortable" wise, Sex and Character (1903), Otto Weininger, text outdated deeply, in which the essence of the woman and 'defined only in relation to his sexuality ("The embrace and' the maximum value of the woman, that she wants to see happen anytime, anywhere" ; "the woman and 'the representative of the idea of promiscuity' in general") and in which all illusions "progressive" inherent in the movement of women's emancipation is liquidated no half measures ("Man more 'down and' infinitely superior to woman more 'elected ").
The orgy shows the protagonist still puzzled and frightened: he merely watching. The rite, lest we forget, takes place in the days of Christmas and is designed as a celebration spilled as a provocative ritual sex and blood that can 'be addressed only to powers underworld. The sentimental and consumerist Christmas traditions reacts the sect, celebrating its strength of prevarication, its ability 'to steal the souls of others. The order of the master turned to Bill to strip prelude to a ritual murder with which to punish the intruder, so bring him back 'to the rule of silence by closing his eyes forever. Bill you save fortuitously.
Start the fourth part. At home Alice tells her husband her perverse dream: the narrative takes on the tone of a second confession. She now lies outside the traditional marital fidelity: the dream has tasted the thrill with horror and pleasure of an orgy Group, a pleasure that has to rediscover the essence more 'intimate of her femininity, now buried in a dull marriage. The parallel with the real orgy and 'amazing (it is already' said the connection between the very similar images of naked Alice and "priestesses" orgy; after all these, women who have discovered the pure sexuality their true essence , are the secret goal of the transformation taking place in the protagonist): the couple, as you see, they walk the same path (the one in a dream reality, the other in a realistic dream) that, as mentioned, produces different outcomes.
Bill, again upset, began his second odyssey in search of explanations. Discovers, without difficulty ', that two men beat Nightingale: these are the two overseers-warriors of the Order, as two were the guardians of the Overlook. The protagonist traces the night before (the circular structure of the film is reminiscent of A Clockwork Orange): Milich back to where he finds the Japanese and Lolita (always reappear the obsessive colors of the US flag); back to the villa while we hear the famous piano piece by Ligeti: even now the music Masonic triangle results in visual fact because 'while Bill contemplates scared the building, his face and' pigeonholed into an image not by chance tripartite.
Then and 'round the Marion, but the attempt died at birth because' the phone meets the boyfriend of her. At home the prostitute Domino finds a second girl, Sally tells him about AIDS: freedom 'sexual seems to have a cost and a risk; Once again Bill escapes. Obsessed by jealousy the protagonist seems to be derided even by luminous signs such Verona Restaurant (Ie the city of Romeo and Juliet) and, in the near shop undergarments, A Hint of Lace (a hint of lace). Meanwhile, someone watching him; the newspaper speaks of him (the title says "Lucky to be alive "); takes refuge in the bar where the echoes Rex Tremendae from Requiem Mozart, complicated allusion to power Masonic (Mozart was an important affiliate), Fate dangerous burden now on Bill, the death of Mandy, maybe even to the death of K. The odyssey ends in front of the corpse of the girl, to His eyes finally closed.
The fifth part, the dialogue between the powerful and the common man, is magnificent: in this final blinding the apparent protagonist is reduced to marginal figure as a supposed character of the seabed proves the key character, confirming that the real power lies in the shadows, in a discreet "silence", and comes out with obvious discomfort, only if required by unforeseen circumstances (as had happened in the sequence of the first part of the bathroom). In an elegant room, full of ancient books and dominated by a pool whose red cloth evokes the blood (in Eyes red is the dominant color, direct emanation of the cascade of blood the Overlook; red are the door of the prostitute's house, some of the walls of the Rainbow, the interior of the Sonata cafe ', as the master of ceremonies and the floor of the room orgy; or may be missing, in the decisive final room of the box detector, blue and white), one cocky Ziegler first attempts to "mislead" by Bill un'edulcorata story and a paternalistic attitude; not succeeding, he dismisses the tone friendly and forbiti and passes those brisk and vulgar who 'used to dispose of human life. Humanitarianism Bill (similar to what naively animated Colonel Dax in the final sequence of similar Paths) Is barely tolerated by the raw Ziegler, as a lie spread among the common people, to which we must pay some attention.
But finally the man becomes impatient, makes it clear that Mandy was just a "whore" (there is an echo of contempt of Grady for Hallorann, the "black cook") and almost threatening Bill, reminding him that now is in serious danger, having discovered the secret ceremonies of menTheir names, if revealed, would upset his sleep. It 'clear that the master of the house alludes to the modern aristocracies, The men's elite of political power, financial, industrial and military. Minimizes eventually death / murder of the young, no more 'too hide the responsibility' of the sect; moreover, the protagonist, an example of the "ordinary people" mentioned by enough to Ziegler, prefers not to elaborate on this point: he now asks nothing better than to be deceived and forget everything; therefore willingly accepts the agnostic (and therefore anti-Christian, if ever there was a need for further confirmation) and general concluding words of Ziegler: "It 'a dead. It happens every day. Life goes on until it continues longer. But you know this, right? ". With them is the fragile transience of existence and then everything, even the Hobbesian logic sopraffatoria governing human things, seems to become more tolerable. The cruel and "victorious" Victor Ziegler at the bottom is much wiser ingenuous Bill.
Again a skeptic, imperturbable and amoral nihilism seems to animate and solve consistently Kubrick worldview.
At home Bill is the last warning: the mask, perhaps forgotten the castle, on his pillow; Order threat so 'his family and imposes silence. The images "stolen" one-dimensional "other" must be erased from his memory; his eyes must once again become "wide shut". The protagonist, as a last gesture, turn off unnecessary Christmas tree: the Christian logic is an empty fable, its' light 'and' misleading and away from the truth; you can delete.
In the epilogue, in a colorful (always red, blue and white) toy store populated by "ordinary people" looking for Christmas presents, in a dimension of banal everyday life ', Mr and Mrs Harford pull an initial assessment: Bill does not ask better than to fall completely reassuring in that dimension, Alice seems more indecisive; its request of pure sex "(not love) seems to lead to a rediscovery of her femininity and a more open-minded of their own body.
Finally two more noterelle, the same that closed the discussion of Shining. In Eyes the teacher insists on pouring out cigarette advertising (sign insistence shooting near the Sonata Café) already appeared Overlook; because stain so a perfect film? More challenging, as always, a possible nod "moon": during the second odyssey, in the street of the prostitute appears a large sign titled Bowman and an image depicting the moon; also appears in the frame The Lotto Store, A shop near the house of Domino certainly Bowman, the Superman, is a goal towards which the harmless Bill, sort of modern gray Papageno fails to set out and to "evolve"; out but 'the obvious reference to the story of the film, 2001 and the moon are connected to the game (the lot), the simulation (the house of the prostitute) and ultimately to the power (by the way it was going to turn this K "transposition" of Schnitzler immediately after the film space). Eyes Wide Shut: The title itself, veiled allusion to the blind credulity 'of ordinary people, perhaps refers to the company moon?

OTTAWA — Former MP Paul Szabo remembers the day he jammed a stick in the spokes of his own majority Liberal government's bill on reproductive technologies by getting opposition help on 76 amendments.
When the legislation finally passed, Szabo said he overheard a group of his colleagues complaining to Liberal health minister Anne McLellan: "That bastard has killed the bill."
"We made changes to it which, let's say, frustrated the operational viability of the bill," Szabo, a passionately pro-life Catholic, said in an interview Wednesday.
"But I fought it openly in caucus. I gave all my arguments directly in writing to the minister."
Since before the Supreme Court struck down Canada's abortion law in 1988, governments of various stripes have struggled to manage internal divisions over deeply held MP opinions on the subject.
Prime Minister Stephen Harper is just the latest, although circumstances may be conspiring to make his a particularly difficult juggling act.
Harper is battling old perceptions of a party built on social conservative foundations and more recent evidence of a prime minister with an iron grip on every aspect of party policy. Squelch one perception and it reinforces the other.
"It's especially sensitive for Harper and the Conservatives because they got a reputation before they came into office for being on the hot, right side of all these social conservative issues," says Lowell Murray, the Mulroney-era Conservative cabinet minister who oversaw the committee that drafted Canada's last attempt at an abortion bill in 1990.
Don Boudria, the former Liberal House leader under Jean Chrétien, outlines the other side of Harper's dilemma.
"If he hadn't been perceived from the beginning as wanting to control everything on everybody's agenda, it would be a little bit easier for him" to allow MPs to speak freely on abortion issues, Boudria said.
"How can he say today: 'I want to control everything — except this.' Who will believe that?"
Brian Mulroney was renowned for his caucus management skills and his ability to get everyone onside for massively ambitious projects, be they rewriting the Constitution or redrafting abortion laws.
He allowed a free vote on capital punishment — a bill Mulroney himself spoke against in the House of Commons.
But after the Senate effectively killed the Conservative abortion bill in 1991, "the subject was exhausted," Murray said in an interview. "As far as we were concerned, we had to move on."
The Liberals under Chrétien had a large pro-life contingent — Tom Wappel once claimed it was close to 40 per cent of caucus — but the party also embraced many MPs at the other end of the spectrum. The party was known, sometimes derisively, for its "big tent."
"Most people shrugged their (shoulders) and said, 'Well, they're Liberals,' " Boudria explained.
For the anti-abortion hardcore who soon realized their Liberal government would never propose a new abortion law, they could say, "All right then, I'll have my own private member's bill," said Boudria. "And people would say, 'Go ahead, that's what they're for.'
"Even if someone wanted to make the government wear it, it wouldn't catch."
The dilemma of "wearing" a bill his government doesn't support is the dilemma facing Harper, although some like Murray say it's time to face down that perception.
The former Progressive Conservative senator argues that after seven years in power, the Conservatives have a proven record on social issues and shouldn't be so hung up on the old Reform party labels.
Murray said he doesn't believe an abortion debate by a dissident faction does present-day Conservatives any harm — "unless Harper decides to double down and bear down hard on them."
Norman Spector, a chief aide to Mulroney during the abortion debates of the late 1980s, said there were lasting lessons learned after the Senate killed the last abortion bill.
"The reason Mulroney put his hands up — and I think Harper understands this — it's futile to have the debate," said Spector.
An abortion debate may provide great media grist, but it is lousy politics, said Spector.
"Harper understands you're not going to get a compromise. People don't want to compromise on this issue."
Nonetheless, the former prime ministerial adviser says, "my own advice would have been to let members spout off."
That may sound callously phrased, but it speaks to a deeper and very real condition for backbench MPs, in the opinion of former Liberal backbencher Szabo.
He said both Chrétien and Mulroney before him recognized the importance of letting MPs speak their minds.
"It's long hours. You're away from your family for eight months. You're not sleeping in your own bed," said Szabo, who was an MP for 17 years. "For some people it's hard to cope.
"Throw on top of that: 'While I'm here, making these sacrifices to try to be a good member of Parliament, I'm now told that I can't speak. I can't be trusted to speak independently.' That's an insult."

Clearly this is a walk for Geometry Wars.
Geometry Wars is so, so great and it was also actually important in showing the possibility of the cheaper downloadable game, an avenue that led to some of the best games in years.
Metal Gear Solid 4 is dumb.
And also one of my favourite games this generation. I choo-choo-choose you, Metal Gear.

Crawling through the microwave hallway in MGS4 made me tear up a little, so I feel like that says a lot. Kojima's creative output isn't perfect, but it sure is ambitious, weird, and sometimes campy, and I can get behind that.
But let it be said that Geometry Wars is no slouch; it is a cornerstone twin-stick shooter with a fantastic aesthetic that kickstarted downloadable games on consoles.
Gotta go MGS4 though.
Never played Geometry Wars, but I'm not especially keen on MGS4, either soo... Quite the stalemate I've found myself in =X
Well, I caved and voted for MGS4 anywhoo, if only because while as a whole I'm not a fan, there are certainly a number of truly memorable moments peppered throughout that game. Plus it still kinda gets my vote by default, as for all I know I might loathe Geometry Wars or something. Unlikely, but since I haven't played it, what I would think is still completely up in the air.
Looks like MGS4's going to win regardless, though!

Having just finished Metal Gear Solid 4 a few days ago. I wanted it back in june of 2008 but my ps3 broke before then, after that never went back even though i love Metal Gear. It was dumb but so damn awesome.....everything i wanted it to be and i wasn't disapointed in the 3rd,4th, and 5th chapter. I love me some Geometry Wars but, but.......METAL GEAR.
It was with this Metal Gear that I came to realization that Mr. Hayter is not a very good voice actor, especially when compared to Akio Otsuka. Luckily it didn't hold the experience back too much and I enjoyed it enough on my first playthrough. I tried going back last year and found it unbearable. This game aged fast, like all MGS games do I guess. Still, it's the clear winner here.

MGS4 is the clear winner.
@zombiepie: But see I think "most important" and "best" are two entirely different lists. If the conversation here is most influeantial then I feel like this tournament would be going completely other directions on some of these votes. I think the conversation here is "best" or "most fun" or just generally what impressed the most.

Everyone who chooses Metal Gear over Geometry Wars is a bad person.
I don't care about Metal Gear Solid in the least bit, and honestly, this is a relatively unfair match-up. One game is simple, and in its simplicity lies its complexity (Geometry Wars). The other game is complex and convoluted, and in that there is no simplicity which muddles the entire experience. Moreover, without playthroughs of previous games, MGS4 is kind of a wash to me.
Geometry Wars gets my vote by miles upon miles.
War has changed. It's no longer about nations, ideologies or ethnicity. It's an endless series of proxy battles, fought by mercenaries and machines. War, and its consumption of life, has become a well-oiled machine. War has changed.

While geometry wars was one of the most enjoyable xbox arcade games I own I cant help but vote for MGS 4. The story was crazy and didn't really make sense at all but I was blown away the first time I booted up this game. It was my first game on the PS3 and was the best looking game I had played at the time. They made the stealth more optional as well and just the controls were leagues above the other mgs games before it. And dat Raiden introduction cinematic.

With the win, the Cowboys improved to 12-2-1 overall and 6-0-0 in the Big 12. The Huskers were dropped to 12-5-0 overall and 1-2-0 in the league. The win was Oklahoma State?s seventh over a ranked team this year.
The Cowboys won seven of the 10 bouts, highlighted by an important 3-2 win from freshman Chris Perry over No. 10 Josh Ihnen at 184 pounds and a hard-fought 4-0 win from Clayton Foster over No. 12 Andy Johnson at 197 pounds.
The Pokes scored 15 takedowns in the dual to Nebraska?s 11. Of the Huskers? 11 takedowns, nine came from returning NCAA champion and top-ranked Jordan Burroughs as part of his 21-9 major decision win over Cowboy freshman Dallas Bailey at 165 pounds.
* The Cowboys return to action at 7 p.m. this Friday in Gallagher-Iba Arena when they host a Boise State squad that is expected to challenge for the NCAA title.

Bout Summaries
141: Mike Koehnlein (NU) dec. No. 17 Josh Kindig (OSU); 10-4
The Huskers struck first in the dual when Mike Koehnlein claimed a 10-4 win over Cowboy freshman Josh Kindig. Kindig opened the scoring with a first-period takedown. Koehnlein escaped, then escaped again to start the second period to bring the score to 2-2. Koehlein stormed in for a big takedown of his own to take a 4-2 advantage over the Cowboy freshman. Kindig reversed Koehlein to deadlock the score at 4-4, but was quickly reversed by Koehnlein. During Koehnlein?s reversal, Kindig was also penalized one point for locking his hands to bring the score to 7-4 in favor of Koehlein. Kindig started the third period in the down position and never did get off bottom, and was turned to his back for a two-point nearfall in the waning seconds. When Koehnlein?s riding time was factored in, the Husker was a 10-4 winner.
149: No. 7 Jamal Parks (OSU) dec. Ross Grande (NU); 2-0
Jamal Parks suffocated Ross Grande with a third-period rideout to key his 2-0 win. After a scoreless first period in which neither wrestler even came close to a takedown, Parks escaped quickly to start the second period. Parks worked for a takedown on the edge of the mat late in the period, but didn?t finish his effort before the clock hit zeroes. Parks overpowered Grande with a smothering third period rideout and when his 1:49 riding time was added on, the Cowboy was a 2-0 winner.
157: No. 16 Neil Erisman (OSU) dec. Tyler Koehn (NU); 7-1
Neil Erisman claimed a comfortable 7-1 win over Tyler Koehn to give the Cowboys a 6-3 lead in the dual. *After a physical-but-scoreless first period, Erisman escaped 13 seconds into the second period to open the scoring. Erisman added a takedown later in the period despite Koehn?s effort to slither away from the Cowboy senior off the edge of the mat. Trailing by a 3-0 score after the first five minutes, Koehn elected a neutral start to the third period, but was taken down again by Erisman to fall behind, 5-0. Pursuing his fifth straight bonus point victory, Erisman cut Koehn loose. He wasn?t able to secure another takedown, however. A Koehn stalling point and Erisman?s 1:07 of riding time brought the final score to 7-1 in Erisman?s favor.
165: No. 1 Jordan Burroughs (NU) MD No. 15 Dallas Bailey (OSU); 21-9
Facing a returning NCAA champion, Cowboy freshman Dallas Bailey lost a 21-9 major decision to No. 1 Jordan Burroughs. It was all Burroughs in the first period, with the Husker dynamo bagging four takedowns and cutting Bailey loose after each one. Bailey was cut loose again to start the second period, then was slapped for stalling to fall behind, 9-5. Burroughs was simply too much for Bailey on this day, adding five more takedowns during the course of the bout, plus another stalling point on Bailey and 1:45 of riding time to seal his 21-9 major decision win.
174: No. 16 Mike Benefiel (OSU) dec. *Caleb Kolb (NU); 11-5
With bonus points on his mind in the third period, Mike Benefiel settled for an 11-5 win over Caleb Kolb that didn?t feel that close. Benefiel was taken down on the opening whistle, but answered with an escape and two takedowns of his own to seize a 5-3 lead after the first three minutes. Benefiel made it 6-3 with an escape to start the second period, then extended his lead to 8-3 with a takedown late in the period. Kolb escaped to start the third period, but was again taken down by Benefiel to fall behind, 10-4. Going after the major decision, Benefiel cut Kolb loose with hopes of securing another takedown, but was unable to do so. When the clock hit zeroes and Benefiel?s riding time was tacked on, the Cowboy junior was an 11-5 winner.
184: No. 11 Chris Perry (OSU) dec. No. 10 Josh Ihnen (NU); 3-2
In one of the key matches of the dual, Cowboy freshman Chris Perry used a second-period reversal to fuel his 3-2 win over No. 10 Josh Ihnen. Perry fought off a couple dangerous takedown attempts from Ihnen in the first period, but neither wrestler was able to score any points in the first three minutes. Perry opened the scoring when he reversed Ihnen in the second period. An Ihnen escape trimmed Perry?s edge to 2-1. Perry started the third period on top and built his riding time advantage to over 1:00 before Ihnen tied the score at 2-2 with an escape. Perry held Ihnen at bay for the rest of the bout and when his 1:34 of riding time was added on, the Cowboy was a 3-2 winner.
197: No. 2 Clayton Foster (OSU) dec. No. 12 Andy Johnson (NU); 4-0
Clayton Foster improved to 8-0 vs. ranked opponents this year with a hard-fought 4-0 win over No. 12 Andy Johnson. After a scoreless first period, Foster escaped 12 ticks into the second period, then fought off a couple good takedown attempts from Johnson before bagging a double-leg takedown of his own to extend his lead to 3-0. Foster suffocated Johnson with a full-period ride in the third period and when his 2:04 of riding time was added on, the Cowboy senior was a 4-0 victor.
285: No. 9 Tucker Lane (NU) dec. Blake Rosholt (OSU); 2-0
A second-period rideout and a third-period escape was the difference in Blake Rosholt?s 2-0 loss to No. 9 Tucker Lane. After a scoreless first period, Rosholt started the second period in the down position and was ridden for the duration by Lane. Lane opened the scoring with an escape to start the third period. As it turned out, that was the only scoring in regulation. Lane?s riding time point brought the final score to 2-0.
125: No. 9 Jon Morrison (OSU) dec. David Klingsheim (NU); 4-2
Jon Morrison sealed the dual for the Cowboys with a 4-2 win over David Klingsheim. Morrison opened the scoring with a first-period takedown. Klingsheim wiggled free for the escape to bring the score to 2-1 in Morrison?s favor after the first three minutes. The second period started with an immediate escape from Klingsheim, but Morrison regained control of the bout with a double-leg takedown and rideout. Morrison was ridden out in the third period and nearly turned to his back in the waning seconds, but held on to win 4-2.
133: No. 1 Jordan Oliver (OSU) MD Ridge Kiley (NU); 14-3
Sophomore Jordan Oliver claimed his 14th bonus-point victory in his last 15 bouts with a 14-3 major decision win over Ridge Kiley to put the finishing touches on the Cowboys? dual victory over the Huskers. Oliver roared out to an 8-2 lead after the first period with three takedowns and a two-point nearfall. He added an escape and takedown in the second period to extend his lead to 11-2 after the first five minutes. Kiley escaped to start the third period, but was taken down again by Oliver, who rode Kiley out for the duration of the bout. When Oliver?s 1:47 of riding time was added, the Cowboy sophomore was a 14-3 winner.

DPWH Region 4 chief on drive vs illegal posters: 'We can't do it alone'
More News from Jerry E. Esplanada
MANILA, Philippines – Easier said than done.
The head of the Department of Public Works and Highways-Southern Tagalog office was referring to the enforcement of the Commission on Elections Resolution No. 9858, which deputized the DPWH to assist the poll body in "removing all unlawful election materials nationwide."
DPWH Region 4 director Huilio Belleza on Sunday said "our field personnel can't do it alone."
Asked why, he warned: "It's not that easy. Baka mapatay ang mga tao namin ng mga pulitiko o ng mga tauhan nila. (Politicians or their supporters might kill our men.)You can never tell."
Citing "feedback from DPWH field personnel," Belleza disclosed "if you tear down today campaign materials posted in areas not designated by Comelec, similar materials would appear in the same areas the following day."
He called for "joint operations by Comelec, DPWH and Philippine National Police teams in enforcing the Comelec resolution."
"Last Tuesday, we met with (DPWH Secretary Rogelio Singson) about the problem. Next Tuesday, we're meeting with DPWH personnel in our respective areas of jurisdiction to discuss our game plan," Belleza told the Philippine Daily Inquirer.
When interviewed, the DPWH official pointed out that "campaign materials belonging to both administration and opposition candidates
were observed to be posted in non-Comelec designated areas not only in Region 4 but also in other regions nationwide."
In Batangas City alone, the propaganda materials include those endorsing the candidacy of mayoral bet Eduardo Dimacuha; actor and Liberal Party congressional candidate Christopher de Leon and his rival Ranie Abu; and the partylist AVE, among others.
Late last month, the DPWH said it would tear down all illegally placed poll materials throughout the country.
In a memo, Singson also ordered the banning and removal of election propaganda materials, especially those posted on road and bridge railings, road signage, bridge approaches and other public structures.
He later issued a handwritten directive reminding DPWH officials to "strictly enforce the Comelec ban."
"These materials pose danger to motorists because the road safety signages are peppered with propaganda materials. Oftentimes, the traffic directional signs cannot be read legibly by motorists," he said.
The DPWH campaign is the agency's "way of supporting the anti-epal campaign, or the citizens' call to politicians not to use public structures as accessory resources to drumbeat their election bids," Singson added.

Mick Jagger on Glastonbury: 'It's the alternative Ascot'
Rolling Stones frontman says he "had fun" headlining the 2013 festival
In an interview with The Observer , looking back at The Rolling Stones' momentous year, in which they celebrated 50 years of being together as a band and headlined the Worth Farm bash, Jagger likened the festival to the posh horse racing event.
He said:
It's the alternative Ascot, let's face it. Not that I've ever been to the proper Ascot.
However, he went on to talk favourably about headlining the festival and revealed that Bono and Coldplay's Chris Martin convinced him that it was a good idea to play Glasto. He added: "It was kind of fun."
Jagger famously posted a picture of himself on instagram standing outside a luxurious yurt with the caption: "Me and my yurt! #StonesGlasto #yurtalert#glastonbury." But he has now come clean and admitted he never actually spent the night camping – and the yurt belonged to his daughter. "I wasn't going to rent my own," he said.
Last week, The Rolling Stones announced a series of live dates to take place in 2014, including shows in the Far East, Asia, Australia and New Zealand. Mick Taylor, who was a member of The Rolling Stones from 1969-1974, will be a special guest for the tour, which is titled '14 On Fire'.
The band played two sold-out headline dates at London's Hyde Park in July this year (2013). They are yet to announce any further UK dates.

Cut-and-paste citation text:
Arthur K. Wheelock Jr., "Adam Pynacker," NGA Online Editions, http://purl.org/nga/collection/constituent/1809 (accessed May 30, 2015).
- Biography
- Works of Art
- Artist Bibliography
Pynacker's approximate date of birth can be deduced from a document of January 22, 1652, in which he is recorded as being thirty-one years old. He was almost certainly born in Schiedam. He appears to have first had a career as wine merchant, like his father, Christiaen Pynacker. In this capacity he traveled to Delft where he met the Delft innkeeper, painter, and art dealer Adam Pick (c. 1622–before 1666), who became a close associate of Pynacker's family. Only one painting by Pick survives, making it impossible to establish any stylistic influence he may have had on Pynacker, though he presumably helped him establish his career as a painter. Pynacker is recorded in Delft from 1649 to 1651 and again in 1657. He seems to have worked frequently in that city, although he may have continued to live in Schiedam, where documents mention him in 1651, 1652, and 1658. In 1654 and 1655 Pynacker worked for the Brandenburg royal court at Lenzen in Germany. Several of his paintings appear in Delft inventories of the early 1650s, and in about 1653 the Delft painter Leonard Bramer (Dutch, 1596 - 1674) sketched copies of three of his landscapes.
On September 20, 1658, Pynacker married Eva Maria de Geest, the daughter of the portrait painter Wijbrand de Geest (1592–after 1660). Upon his marriage he converted to Catholicism, and his two children were baptized as Catholics in Schiedam in 1660 and 1661. During the 1660s Pynacker moved to Amsterdam, where he is recorded in 1669 and 1671, although he is also documented in Schiedam again in 1670, the year of his last dated painting. He died in Amsterdam in March 1673.
Houbraken states that Pynacker spent several years in Italy. Although his atmospheric, idyllic landscapes have a strongly Italianate character, there is no documentary evidence from the 1640s and 1650s to prove that he did indeed travel to Italy. He may have learned about the Italian campagna through the works of other artists, particularly Jan Asselijn (Dutch, c. 1610 - 1652), Jan Both (Dutch, 1615/1618 - 1652), and Herman Saftleven (Dutch, 1609 - 1685), whose works seem to have been a source of inspiration. Nevertheless, Pynacker's landscapes are compositionally quite imaginative and adhere only rarely to the classical principles of composition favored by other Italianizing Dutch landscape painters. He also executed a few series of large landscapes that were commissioned by wealthy merchants as decorative ensembles to adorn their town houses and country properties.

it doesn't matter if the boss comes out or not. once they die, they will respawn in a predetermined amount of time. my best suggestion for you is to work as a team to clear out the room and to do the consoles quickly and efficiently. generally speaking, all 5 members should clear out the left platform, then the right platform and then the center. why? it is because when the borg do respawn, the left platform is the furthest away from everyone in the fight and will pose the least trouble if indeed the fight takes longer than expected. then as the three people jump to activate the consoles, the two remaining ones should hastily clear the platforms ahead. a sci with a pulsewave is efficient at doing this. i generally do this by having one person middle covering with a split beam rifle, to help draw aggro, as i jump to the top left corner. i then melee and pulsewave the closest corner guy into the plasma. i swing around the console and line up the two remaining on the platform and tach harmonic and pulsewave them into the plasma. then i jump to top mid and melee push them into the plasma, using a pulsewave shot if they don't quite make it. finally, jumping to the last corner, i go behind the closest guy, push him close to the edge and pulsewave him into the plasma. swing around the console and tach harmonic the last two, finishing off with a pulsewave if necessary. the middle guy will have kept some aggro, so the clearing guy isn't dealing with 3 drones at once, while the 3 jumpers can focus on jumping and the consoles. no one has to die unnecessarily and the room gets done in a quick and efficient manner.
i suggest the middle guy use a split beam, because any weapon with knockback can disrupt the pattern, making it harder for the clearing guy to do their job and thus, wasting time. i hope you give it a go and remember, use the omega set power as often as you can and you will be fine.
when dealing with the queen, have a tactical captain use tactical initiative just as the fight is beginning and have your sci rattle off the powers in this order: tach harmonic, sensor scan and then nano virus. then repeat tach harmonic and sensor scan while firing in between. this makes the fight sooo much faster, thus mitigating the chances you will have to deal with respawning borg.
