Report finds some gains for minority actors in NYC
NEW YORK (AP) - The percentage of minority actors working on Broadway and at the top 16 not-for-profit theater companies in New York City rose to 23 percent during the 2011-2012 season, but whites continue to be overrepresented, according to a new report.
The Asian American Performers Action Coalition released its second annual look at ethnic representation on New York stages and found that minority actors overall saw a 2 percent increase from the previous season.
It found that African-American actors were cast in 16 percent of all roles, Hispanics in 3 percent and Asian-American actors in 3 percent. Caucasians filled 77 percent of all roles, far outweighing their respective population size in the metro and tri-state areas.
According to 2010 U.S. Census numbers, blacks make up 23 percent of the city's population and 17 percent of the tri-state area; Hispanics made up 28.6 percent of the city and 22 percent of the tri-state area; and Asian-Americans comprised 13 percent of the city and 9 percent of the tri-state area. Whites are 33 percent of the city and almost 62 percent of the tri-state's population.
Black actors increased their representation by 2 percent compared to last season, while Hispanics stayed the same as last season, and Asian-Americans saw their numbers tick up by 1 percent.
For the second year in a row, the not-for-profit sector lagged behind the commercial sector when it came to hiring minorities. Minority employment for the non-profit companies fell below 20 percent for the second year in a row.
While the numbers of black and Latino actors on non-profit stages increased, the number of Asian-American actors hasn't budged from the 2 percent-mark for the past three years. By comparison, five years ago Asian-Americans represented 7 percent of working actors.

Here is a mini version of problem
a = [[1,2,3][0,0,0]]
b = [[1,0,1][0,0,0]]
c = [[0,0,0][1,0,1]]
so if level 1 is [] and level 2 is [[]], then what i'm trying to do is test ever list to see if there level 2's match (regardless of order) so in this case b,c are equivalent.
i'm using unittesting and nosetests to run them If i wanted to just test one table against another i would do something like:
the function truth() creates my tables
def test_table1_table2(self):
for row in truth(1,3):
but My goal is to test all tables against all other tables i have created (about 20 and growing). Some issues i can't work out (i'm not sure if i need to read unittest docs or nosetests or don't even need them!)
my guess is to just use more for loops to pull out ever possibility. But using
>>> nosetest
with a
just stops at the first error, which isn't what i want. i need to scan and collect info on which lists are equivalent at (regardless of order or the nested lists). maybe i should just create something and forget about unittests?
so my preferred output would be something like
table1 and table2 are not equivalent
table1 and table2 are not equivalent
or probable more useful and shorter would just be
table1 and table10 are equivalent
Here is the code i have currently, almost everything is just a integer there expect truth() which makes the truth table (nested list):
114 def test_all(self):$ |~
115 ''' will test all tables'''$ |~
116 for expression in range(self.count_expressions()):$ |~
117 num_var = count_vars(exp_choose(expression))$ |~
118 for row in truth(expression, num_var):$ |~
119 for expression2 in range(self.count_expressions()):$ |~
120 num_var2 = count_vars(exp_choose(expression2))$ |~
121 for row2 in truth(expression2, num_var2):$ |~

Jessie Joe Parker set for January return to Whitehaven
Last updated at 11:42, Wednesday, 05 December 2012
Jessie Joe Parker has signed a deal to return to Whitehaven next season – and he is set to bring a couple of his Papua New Guinea international pals with him.
Parker will return to the Recre in early January, pending the issuing of a visa, and he is unlikely to be alone, with two PNG props set to board the plane with him.
The centre, currently at home in PNG, made no secret that his warm welcome in the town last term made his decision to return to the club much easier.
"I love the place, the people are so friendly," said the 27-year-old.
Parker failed to score in his first six outings after arriving at the Recre in April, but his performances improved markedly later in the season, and he crossed eight times in his next 12 games, also catching the eye in defence.
"There was a dramatic improvement over the last couple of months of the season after he moved to left centre," said chief executive Barry Richardson.
"Jessie is very capable of playing in the Championship and we are pleased to have him back.
"It was always the deal that after our last match he would go home to be with his family. He has children aged three and one, and you can understand why he wanted to go back to them."
The paperwork in the UK has been rubber-stamped, and Parker is now awaiting a visa, issued from Manilla, in the Philippines.
"Jessie submitted his application two weeks ago and pending that matter, he will be over here in the first week in January," Richardson added.
Parker is likely to form a centre partnership with Scott McAvoy, another proven Championship performer.
Two PNG props have signed for Haven, but the deals are not complete until visas are issued, so the club are cautious over revealing details at this stage.

5 of the Weirdest Flowers
Subscribe to our newsletter
When you think of flowers you probably think of gardens full of roses or a rolling green field dotted with crisp looking daisies. These flowers will have you on the lookout for Harry Potter's Herbology teacher. There seems to be times when nature wants us to be in awe of its weirdness rather than beauty.
The Naked Coral Tree - Erythrina coralloides
Erythrina coralloides also known as the Flame Coral Tree is a species of flowering tree in the pea family or Fabaceae, ranges from the American state of Arizona to the Oaxaca in Mexico. The plant with its hard, red pointed 'petals' looks like misplaced coral growing up in the middle of sparse vegetation or desert.
Enter the dragon - Darcunculus vulgaris
Looking like something out of a science fiction movie the Darcunculus vulgaris is also known as Dragon Arum, Snake Lily or the Voodoo Lily. Native to the Balkans the planet is also found in Greece and south west to parts of Anatolia. Recently introduced to America it can be found in Oregon, California and Tennessee. This species has a large purple hooded spathe and spadix. The smell is very unpleasant at least to humans. Flies pollinate this plant as it traps them with its nightly inflorescence glow and in the morning the insects fly away loaded with pollen.
These planets look, they were designed in the 1960's by someone taking a psychedelic drug. Rafflesia is a parasitic flowering planet discovered by Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles guide in 1818 during an expedition through the Indonesia rain forest. The only part of the plant visible other than the vine is the flower. The flower has five large rounded petals and can grow up to over 100 centimeters. Rafflesias smell like rotten flesh a tactic intended to attract insects such as flies or carrion beetles for the purpose of pollination.
Strange fruit - Barringtonia asiatica
Barringtonia asiatica also known as Sea Poison Tree is native to the Indian Ocean. The spiky fringe of petals resembles something you might find sitting next to a lava lamp. The middle size tree the petals sprout from produce a fruit that is almost box shaped.
Furry but strange - Stapelia grandiflora
If you are turned off of plants because they aren't furry and cuddly you'd find half the package in the Stapelia grandiflora a native of Southern Africa. Also called Carrion Flower and Giant Zulu this plant has a soft fluffy look that belies its true business of catching the interest of insects to pollinate them.

For One Day Only: $1=$4, Thanks to Matching from BIG Donors
Let me state what is painfully obvious. Despite our most hopeful illusions, people are not really good, nor do they really practice peace. While power corrupts, absolute powerlessness corrupts absolutely, and there is no safe place, neither high nor low, for the most vulnerable of our citizens.
The world is always at war. People fight – it's what we do. We quarrel, often in deadly ways, with other family members, and we fight bitter, brutal battles with anyone who is "different" in terms of gender, class, race, ethnicity, tribe, religion, and ideology. The planet is perpetually plagued by civil and national wars. Not to be outdone, persecuted peoples internalize the prejudice and hatred leveled against them and unleash it against others like themselves.
Despite what has been learned about the Holocaust, genocide has since become commonplace; it advances with arrogant impunity and is neither stopped nor punished by the international community. Rape – including repeated, public gang-rape – has become a calculated weapon of war. It is no longer (merely) a spoil of war to which drunken, woman-hating soldiers feel entitled.
Even so, world wars, especially those that may involve nuclear weapons, outclass (so to speak) this chronic buzz of destruction. We are poised on the precipice of just such a moment. Yeats's "rough beast" is Islamic fundamentalism and it literally "slouches towards Bethlehem," intent on destroying Judeo-Christian civilization.
The Muslim world has, by and large, been judenrein for quite some time. It has also become increasingly Islamified. The Egyptian dissident Tarek Heggy recently wrote to me about a visit to his hometown of Port Said. Now, he said, "women are everywhere sheeted and hate blares from every mosque around the clock." Gone are the Jews and the Christians and the non-religious Muslims; gone is the cosmopolitan splendor of the colonial-era Islamic East.
The Taliban and Taliban-like ways continue to plague the girls and women of Afghanistan. Al Qaeda continues to morph and everywhere remains at large – though the battle is joined in Iraq. Bin Laden continues his career in global video-production from some cave or rat-hole in No Man's Land along the Afghanistan-Pakistan border. Iran continues to call for the extermination of the Jewish state – and its president is welcomed by the United Nations and Columbia University.
The Swedish cartoonist Lars Vilks, against whom Al Qaeda has issued a death warrant, has been informed by his government that he is no longer safe in his home or his country. Ayaan Hirsi Ali had to flee Holland; the late, great Oriana Fallaci fled her native Italy; I have dear friends trying to leave England, France, and Germany, and others documenting the mounting tide of Jew- and America-hatred among European Muslims.
(At the same time, I know many Muslim dissidents who have found safer refuge in Europe and many Muslim feminists who are trying to rescue women from being battered, mutilated, and murdered on European soil).
Still, America and Israel remain the world's last best hopes. American forces continue to engage the enemy in Afghanistan and Iraq. On September 6, Israel apparently bombed nuclear weapons in Syria that were acquired from North Korea or Iran. For once, the Israelis are neither denying nor admitting anything – nor are the Syrians.
More: As former ambassador Yoram Ettinger pointed out in a lecture at my synagogue, Israel's economy during this last, awful period of permanent intifada actually surged forward. And the demographic statistics have been greatly misunderstood: based on Ettinger's research, "the Jewish-Arab fertility gap has been reduced to one child (down from a six-children gap in the 1960's."
Like Nobel Laureate Professor Robert (Yisrael) Aumann, about whom I have written before, Ambassador Ettinger is urging that we look at the larger picture, examine the infrastructure, be prepared for the long haul.
Still, I remain distressed and uneasy, not only because the lives of both soldiers and civilians are being lost but because so many educated Americans continue to deny that we are really at war and that fundamentalist Islam (not merely terrorism) remains our Number One clear and present danger.
Too many Americans are clinging to their illusions for dear life.
Fall has come early this year and it is a soft and beautiful one here in New York. Construction is booming, huge new skyscrapers appear almost overnight, the long-awaited Second Avenue subway line is being dug out of the concrete. New Yorkers seem to be enjoying the weather, lingering at outdoor cafes, walking down streets and through parks, enjoying all the rich cultural offerings that characterize this capital of the world.

Few of the volunteers were experienced sailors, (Greenfield had been in the Merchant Marine). Few were Zionists.
Hundreds of boats tried to run the British blockade on the dangerous, open seas.
My good colleague Kay is wrong about the early demise of conspiracy theories and blood libels against the Jews.
"I am surprised those Zionists are not outside protesting," says one woman.
"Miral" is a film that has garnered an inordinate amount of media attention. In interviews, the director, Julian Schnabel, defends his right to tell the Palestinian "narrative" for what he claims is the first time. He seems not to know that many others before him have specialized in this particular line of work.
Our beloved, miraculous Jewish state is under siege.
It was assumed that the ceaseless persecution of the Jews in exile would cease once we again had our own sovereign homeland, our own army, navy, and air force.
In 1947-1948 I lived in Boro Park where, against parental and rabbinic advice, I joined a Zionist group. By 1950 I was packing machine-gun parts for Israel in a home not far from the Young Israel. But what I did as a child does not compare to what my friend and colleague David Gutmann did for love of Zion at that very time on the dangerous open seas.
Reality has become somewhat Scandinavian. It grows dark early and it is bitterly cold here in New York City and over a good portion of our fair land. Our Prince of Peace (The Norwegian Nobel, not the noble variety) is not yet asking whether "to be or not to be." Perhaps he is not entirely convinced that "that is the question."

Dewar's £3m starts tongues wagging
by Tom Brown Published
Reading the will is one of those ceremonies that can bring out the worst in people. When local papers used to report the estates of an area's worthies, it would keep the gossips going for weeks. Now, Scotland has become a nation of nosy parkers after the publication of the legacy left by the late Donald Dewar. Tongues clacked and heads wagged at the revelation that the almost eccentrically shabby and simple-living Dewar had left a personal estate that will exceed £3m.
It was surprise enough that a man who lived on fish fingers, takeaway curries and the pickings from official buffets should have turned out to be a multimillionaire. Still more surprising was that the Labour stalwart who led the Scottish campaign against Thatcherism had large shareholdings in privatised companies such as Railtrack, Powergen and Thames Water. Dewar had opposed the privatisation of British Rail, described selling off Scotland's electricity supply as "asset-stripping nonsense" and successfully campaigned against Tory proposals to privatise Scotland's water.
Bob Thomson, a former treasurer of the Scottish Labour Party, said, with old Labour angst, that it showed how things had changed in the party. The ideologically pure Tommy Sheridan, leader of the Scottish Socialist Party, pointed out that Dewar had a financial interest in keeping Railtrack and the other companies in private hands.
The inventory of Dewar's estate is almost a history of his genteel middle-class upbringing, his twin careers in politics and the law, and the solitary existence caused by the break-up of his marriage.
In the 1970s, the lowest years of his life, when his political career stalled and his wife Alison left him for their friend Derry Irvine, now the Lord Chancellor, he became a partner in one of Scotland's most prosperous law firms. After returning to Westminster, throughout the years in opposition, he spent parliamentary vacations as a working partner.
The bulk of his estate was in three houses, one of which he inherited. He stayed on in the matrimonial home in Glasgow's upmarket West End and, just before his death, he bought a £240,000 flat nearby, but never moved in. This was mainly to house his growing collections of antiquarian books and paintings, mainly the sought-after Scottish colourists, of which he said: "People make it sound as if I've got the Glasgow Guggenheim."
What made the Dewar fortune so unexpected was the contrast with his lifestyle, which was anything but millionaire- like. His university nickname of "the Gannet" was borne out by his habit of making a beeline for the buffet at official functions - and stuffing sausage rolls and sandwiches into his pockets as a precaution against peckishness when he was on his own. At one OAP function, he almost made a start on a packet of custard creams - until told it was the bingo prize.
His home was sparsely furnished with 1960s pieces, and only when he became First Minister was he persuaded to discard his suits from M&S (of which he was a shareholder) for more expensive makes. He only ever owned one overcoat, which he lost after a couple of days.
Coincidentally, another Scottish Labour leader - this time a living one - is embroiled in a financial furore. Tom McCabe, the minister for parliament (equivalent of the chief whip and leader of the house at Westminster), has scandalised Scots by negotiating himself a £9,500 annual allowance to buy a flat in Edinburgh - although his constituency home is only a 50-minute drive from the Scottish Parliament and he can claim an £83-per-night hotel allowance if unavoidably detained.
Perks for Scottish politicians have been a touchy subject from the beginning. The MSPs' first act, on getting their bottoms on parliament seats, was to vote themselves a £90,000-a-year salary-and-expenses package.
Eyebrows were further raised when it emerged that McCabe, an ex-leader of South Lanarkshire Council and a former Hoover plant worker, had acquired a £300,000 house in a snooty village in the west of Scotland (yes, there is such a place - and your correspondent lives at the poorer end of it). Given McCabe's past bruising performance as arm-twister-in-chief, there were enemies aplenty queuing up to make the most of his surprising affluence.
Labour politicians and money always make an uncomfortable alliance. Trouble is, they do seem to have an unfortunate habit of attracting each other.

Customer Reviews of Swann Digital Guardian Camera & Recorder - 1 x Camera, Digital Video Recorder - MPEG Formats
Fantastic Camera10/19/2010
Easy to install....works great
Great security system- Look out vandals!4/19/2010
It took me 15 minutes to set this up after I opened the box! The interface and manual were so easy to use. Just find a place to plug it in (I have an outlet on my porch) Mount it, plug it in, put the SD card in and power on! I had zero interferance from my wireless network. The image is really good in color for daytime and at the night vision works great-it recorded people walking behind my house at night. We were vandalized over and over again and now I am just waiting to see who it is, almost wishing it would happen again now that I will have them recorded!
