Meet 'Women in Soviet Art'
MARY ABBE | Updated 7/2/2013
Sixty paintings depict the myriad roles of Soviet-era women.
"Worker" (1970) by Igor A. Razdrogin.

Long before American women started yammering about glass ceilings and equal pay, there was Vladimir Lenin speaking out about domestic drudgery. Housework, Lenin said, was "barbaric, unproductive, petty, nerve-wrecking, stupefying and depressing." Who but Martha Stewart would argue?
When Lenin and company set out to create a new Soviet state, they were social — as well as political and economic — revolutionaries. From 1917 on, Soviet women had equal access to education and work opportunities. By the 1950s, the Soviet Union had the world's highest percentage of women in the workforce.
What that meant in reality is deftly sketched in "Women in Soviet Art," a fascinating new exhibit at the Museum of Russian Art of 60 post-World War II paintings by more than 50 artists. The show loosely tracks the lives and aspirations of Soviet women. Their circumstances — as well as artists' styles — were subtly affected by changes in the political winds between Stalin's death in 1953 and the collapse of the USSR in 1991.
What the paintings make clear is that, official promises aside, women's lives in the Soviet era were challenging at best. Take "Adam and Eve," a sternly poignant allegory by Geli M. Korzhev, who depicts the first couple as weary workers flanking a snake with an apple in its mouth. Eyes downcast, Adam is a crippled alcoholic leaning on his crutches while hard-working Eve gazes at him skeptically. As the accompanying text explains, alcoholism is an endemic problem in Russia, where alcohol is known as "the green serpent." The panel quotes Dostoevsky's praise of women as "our only great hope, one of the pledges of our survival."
And so various Soviet artists depict women energetically shoveling a golden mountain of grain, working in a dark factory, flanked by racks of fish carcasses, driving a trolley, plastering walls. The integration of women into the workforce is especially notable in three monumental logging pictures painted by different artists between 1958 and '68. In the boldest of them, "Young Woodcutters" by Aleksei P. Belykh, a handsome woman towers over the rest of the work crew, including a man crouched with a chain saw before her. Clearly the equal if not the boss of the men, she still signals her femininity with a pink jacket and cream skirt over boots and trousers.
Elsewhere a female carpentry crew takes a break to share a newspaper article, their faces, workclothes and tools beautifully illuminated by raking light. In "Dreams About Space," a 1965-67 painting by Viktor I. Lapin, a pretty young aviator with blond curls tumbling from her helmet clutches an article about Valentina Tereshkova, the first woman astronaut. That same camaraderie and pride echo in Aleksei G. Varlamov's "Sisters in Arms," a kitchen-table reunion of World War II combat pilots.
Life was not all work, though, and some of the most arresting pictures nicely contradict Western stereotypes of Soviet life. The show's most uplifting image is "The Road Into Life," an immense 1956 portrait by Ekaterina S. Zermova of her daughter reading in a sunlit room, surrounded by books, with the skyline of Moscow University beckoning through the open window. The future also opens in Boris A. Talberg's 1958 "In the Lenin Mountains," in which three stylish teenage skiers look like they've just stepped from the pages of Mademoiselle magazine. (Apparently Yves Saint-Laurent showed his collection in Moscow in 1959, though most Soviet women then sewed their own clothes — including underwear!)
There are tough times, too, and increasing ambivalence as Soviet life became more threadbare. The flat, posterish "Severe Style" that gained favor in the 1970s accentuates the resignation of Igor A. Razdrogin's somber young fish butcher and the bleak cityscape through which Buda I. Sadikov's featureless trolley driver navigates. And by 1984, the dairy workers in Olimpiada A. Busygina's "The Operator" are so repressed they look like automatons.

President Barack Obama is set to deliver his 2014 State of the Union address on Tuesday night. Early leaks suggest a speech that will focus on steps to fight economic inequality, particularly by increasing the minimum wage and expanding universal pre-K. But let's forget all that silly policy gibberish for the moment, and focus on what the State of the Union really means: It means a Republican politician has an unparalleled opportunity to really embarrass herself.
The State of the Union response is typically a plum given to one of the opposition party's up-and-comers, and on Tuesday the

by William Shakespeare
Othello Act 2, Scene 3 Summary
- Othello tells Cassio to keep the party under control. Cassio notes that actually that's Iago's job, but sure, he's willing to help out. After Othello says he trusts Iago (bad move), he tells Desdemona he's paid for her by marrying her, and now it's about time that he gets to collect.
- Once Othello leaves, Iago meets with Cassio, all ready to start their night-watch together (they're guarding the court while everyone else gets their party on). Iago notes its actually only 10 pm, way too early to start. Obviously, Othello only put them on watch because he had some business to attend to.
- Iago then prods Cassio to talk about how appealing Desdemona is. He tries to get Cassio to call the girl a whore, but Cassio's more of a gentleman than that. When it doesn't work, Iago tries to convince him to drink.
- He prods Cassio, saying they've got friends coming that would be happy to have a drink in honor of "black Othello." Cassio points out that he's kind of a lightweight, and he's already had his one drink for the night.
- So Iago dismisses Cassio to get the door for the three Cypriot gallants who are now waiting there. Left alone, Iago reveals his master plan of drunkenness: he hopes to get Cassio hammered, knowing that Roderigo's been drinking all night in the name of his lost love. Once the three drunk Cypriots, who are quick to fight when saucy, are tossed in the mix, a rough and tumble night is guaranteed.
- As the young gentlemen of Cyprus (the gallants) enter with Montano and Cassio, Cassio declares they've already given him another drink. Iago, thrilled to bits, sings a drinking song and calls the Danish and Dutch people poor comparisons to a British drunk.
- Iago then sings another song, of a King Stephen who's too distracted by his clothes, and so loses his kingdom. (This is handy if you're reading The Tempest, as Shakespeare alludes to this song again when would-be king Stephano gets distracted by a wardrobe and so sacrifices his dominion over the island.)
- The point is, everyone's getting sauced. Cassio, lightweight that he is, gets drunker than everybody else, and begins to moralize about how they shouldn't be drunk, as he'd like his soul to be saved when he dies.
- Iago agrees that he, too, would like his soul saved, but Cassio says Iago should wait to die after him, as lieutenants should have their souls saved before dinky low-ranking flag-boys. Cassio continues undiplomatically that they should all look to their business as though they weren't drunk.
- He insists that he's not drunk, and he's so not drunk he can even distinguish his right hand from his left hand. Definitely not drunk.
- Cassio then heads off with the other drunken men to start their night watch, leaving Montano, Governor of Cyprus, alone with Iago. Not shockingly, Iago does his usual thing when left alone with someone: he slanders the person who's just left the room.
- Iago says that Cassio's virtues are well balanced with his vices, suggesting the lieutenant is extreme in both his good and bad behavior. Iago adds that Cassio drinks himself to sleep when he can. Montano, hearing this, concludes that Othello is too good-natured to recognize Cassio's alcoholism.
- Roderigo then enters, and Iago sends him off after Cassio. This is a setup for a fight between the two. Iago continues to shoot the breeze with Montano when Roderigo runs in—chased by Cassio. As Cassio hits Roderigo (who literally asked for it), Montano tries to stop him. Naturally, Cassio turns his drunken fury on Montano.
- Iago instructs Roderigo to run and make a ruckus about the fact that a mutiny has started, and then acts all surprised when, shortly after, the town bell is rung (likely by Roderigo). This makes it a sure bet that Othello will come in and ask just what all the fuss is about.
- Then… Othello comes in and asks just what all the fuss is about. Iago feigns innocence and says he doesn't know how the brawl started, he just saw everyone fighting like they were suddenly transported to a schoolyard.
- Othello demands explanations: Cassio says he can't speak, and Montano, claiming to be weak from blood-loss, says he's only guilty if he can be blamed for not being able to protect himself.
- So Cassio's drunk, Montano's claiming self-defense, and Othello's mad. He says his passion is beginning to overtake his reason, and everyone's going to get a beating unless this gets cleared up immediately. Further, it's for shame that the men make such a ruckus when the poor people of Cyprus feel like they're at war, and their supposed rescuers can't even manage their own domestic disputes.
- Othello calls on Iago to explain, who claims he would never speak a bad word against Cassio. He says he was chatting with Montano when a fellow ran in crying for help, with Cassio in hot pursuit. Montano, stepping toward Cassio to calm him down, got pulled into the fray.
- Iago continues: he chased after the yelling fellow to stop him from waking the city (mission not accomplished), and Cassio and Montano were embroiled in a fight by the time he came back. (All in all, Iago claims he wants to protect Cassio, but in actuality, he deliberately makes Cassio seem to be the one at fault.) Othello thinks Iago's meager report of Cassio's wrong is his attempt to cover for Cassio, which lets him imagine that Cassio is even more at fault. Mission accomplished.
- Furious, Othello fires Cassio from his position as one of his officers. Desdemona comes in, confused. Othello tells her to go back to bed, but says in the meantime that he has to take care of the wounded Montano.
- After they leave, Iago pretends to make nice with Cassio, asking if he's OK. Cassio replies that he's mortally wounded, and Iago basically says, unsympathetically, "what a pity." Cassio says in this fight, his reputation has suffered irreparable harm. Iago comforts him, stating that reputation is a stupid marker by which to judge people, as it's earned and lost so easily. Iago claims Cassio has no reputation at all, "unless you repute yourself such a loser."
- Anyway, Iago insists that Cassio can win back Othello's affections, as Othello punished Cassio more because it was immediately necessary than out of any long term hate.
- Iago asks if Cassio remembers why he chased that one guy (Roderigo), and Cassio says he remembers a lot of stuff, but not any particular offense. He goes on to blame wine for a bit, and generally condemns drinking until Iago cuts this off.
- Iago suggests that Cassio go to Desdemona and get her on his side. After all, she and Othello might as well share one mind. Desdemona is so nice, Iago claims, that she'll be eager to help Cassio, and certain to persuade Othello to take him back (as an officer). Cassio thinks this is a grand idea, and says he'll go to Desdemona in the morning.
- Iago is then left alone. As usual, he informs us that he's very pleased with himself. Even if he were an honest guy who was Cassio's friend, he would have given him the same advice: go get help from Desdemona. It just so happens that this "good advice" plays right into Iago's plan to make Othello jealous of Cassio. Gleefully, Iago realizes that Desdemona's kindness to Cassio will be her downfall.
- Roderigo comes in, fresh from the beating from Cassio, and says he thinks he should give up and go back to Venice, as now he's poor and bruised up. Iago tells him he has to be patient; though Cassio technically won the fight, the injury against Cassio will have longer effects. The fight's gotten him fired, after all, and who knows what it might bring upon him later.
- Iago dismisses Roderigo and goes back to bad-guy scheming. First, he plans to get his wife (Emilia) to try to plead Cassio's case to Desdemona. Second, he will try to get Othello all to himself, and then conveniently lead him to someplace where he can chance upon Cassio in intimate private speech with Desdemona, in a classic "it's not what it looks like, honey" moment.

PTS Committee Meeting Minutes
April 21, 2004 4:00pm, 432 CWH
Present: Carol Miller, Carl Foster, Robert Carney, Wahhab Khandker, Dick Sullivan
Excused: Susan Kelly, Deborah Dougherty-Harris, Joseph Anderson, Robin McCannon
Approval of Minutes of 2/11/04 meeting: MSP (Foster/Sullivan)
Old Business:
Members discussed the committee's report and recommendation to Faculty Senate with regard to the charge of assessing the types and quantity of service performed by faculty and how this impacts service on standing committees and promotion. Carl reported that the process of writing the letters to candidates explaining why they did not get promoted has been changed in the Joint Promotion Committee. He said that each committee member will now be responsible for drafting the letters for certain candidates and then presenting the letters to the committee for approval. Wahhab suggested that we highlight the positive steps that JPC has taken to clarify the expectations for promotion. Dick added that the expectations must be clear, but we cannot have itemized criteria for promotion, because that will be impossible to do across disciplines and over time. The consensus of the committee was to send out final drafts of the Report and Recommendation to be voted on via email.
New Business:
1. New Charge from Faculty Senate: JPC's proposed new eligibility requirements for promotion.
JPC passed a motion to ask the PTS to consider: a) five years at rank of Assistant Professor be required for promotion to Associate Professor, b) five years at rank of Associate Professor be required for promotion to Professor, and c) to determine whether a residency requirement (time in service at UW-L) ought to be specified for eligibility for promotion.
Currently the requirements at UW-L are: "…a minimum of five years of teaching or other appropriate experience" for eligibility for promotion to Associate and "…a minimum of 10 years full-time college-university teaching or other appropriate experience" for eligibility for promotion to Professor.
JPC forwarded information about eligibility requirements at other comparable universities in the UW-System. PTS members investigated the requirements further. Each member brought the requirements of time in rank/service for the different universities used as comparisons to UW-L. A few of those who did not attend sent the information they acquired to Carol. See attached Table 1.
JPC also forwarded data on average time in rank before being promoted for the years past and by college. The committee decided to request similar data from the university, but to include "average time in service (full-time college/university teaching experience)." This will allow the committee to assess if the time in service and time and rank differ.
The committee decided to attempt to obtain similar data on average time of service (full-time college/university teaching experience) and average time in rank before promotion from at least two comparable universities in the UW-System (e.g. UW-Eau Claire and/or UW-Whitewater).
Because this issue has important implications, the committee will request further information and take up this discussion and its consideration in the Fall.
2. Feedback to JPC about the recently drafted "A Guide to Faculty Promotions and Portfolio Development at UW-La Crosse." The committee (PTS) discussed the fact that these guidelines will definitely be helpful to candidates, but members wanted to read it more thoroughly in order to give constructive critiques on some of the examples of evidence that the guidelines offer to prospective promotion candidates.
Meeting adjourned at 4:55 pm.
Table 1. Minimum time of experience for promotion (UW-Cluster Campuses)
Requirements for Assoc. Prof.
Requirements for Professor
Eau Claire
A minimum of 5 years of full-time equivalency in teaching and/or professional experience and including
no less than 3 years of full-time college teaching. Additional information: A period of at least five years is ordinarily needed in order to provide time for a candidate to establish a record which will result in the support of the Department Subcommittee for a promotion. This time period is not, however, to be seen as either necessary or sufficient.
A minimum of 12 years of full-time equivalency in teaching and/or professional experience and including
no less than 5 years of full-time college teaching.
Green Bay
Promotion tied to tenure. "The initial probationary appointment at the rank of either assistant professor, associate professor, or professor shall be for no more than three years. After not more than six years of full-time service at his university, as an assistant professor, associate professor, or after the equivalent of not more than six years of full-time service at this university in the ranks of instructor or and assistant professor combined, a faculty member will be notified in writing by the interdisciplinary unit or the administration no later than the end of his/her sixth year that he/she will be recommended for tenure or will not be recommended for tenure. The above provisions do not preclude the awarding of tenure after a period of service shorter than six years.
Can not access. Promotion tied to tenure
"at least five years of documented effective teaching at the college level (including at least 3 years at UWP)"
"at least 10 years of documented effective teaching at the college level including at least 3 years at UWP"
River Falls
"a minimum of six years of teaching or equivalency with a minimum of three academic years as an Assistant Professor at this University will be required."
"Ten years of full-time college/university teaching or equivalency is required. A minimum of three of those years must be at the rank of Associate Professor at this University."
Stevens Point
"At least five years of teaching experience and/or relevant work experience"
"At least seven years of teaching and/or relevant work experience showing evidence of excellence, with five years of this experience consisting of teaching and/or work experience at the college or university level"
"4 years of full-time college or university teaching…" Additional Info:
In order to carry in years of service, the faculty member must demonstrate it was truly equivalent."
"10 years of college or university teaching…"

ALBUQUERQUE (KRQE) - A fugitive defendant in a fatal drunken-driving case planted a fake obituary in an attempt to escape trial, according to attorneys, court records and Mothers Against Drunk Driving.
Byron Shane Carpenter, 30, was arrested Wednesday after an anonymous tip to MADD offices in Albuquerque.
"We were quite surprised when we found out that death notification had been filed," MADD executive director Lora Lee Ortiz told KRQE News 13. "We received the tip last week and within a day and a half he was in custody."
Carpenter's arrest came one month after his obituary appeared in the Albuquerque Journal.
Weeks after the obituary was published, Carpenter's wife contacted his attorney, Sandy Barnhart y Chavez, saying he was dead.
"I received a frantic and crying phone call from his wife saying that Byron had died in a car crash in southern New Mexico," Barnhart y Chavez said.
Carpenter faces charges of homicide by vehicle, great bodily injury by vehicle and aggravated driving while intoxicated from a 2006 crash in Edgewood that killed a woman and severely injured her elderly stepfather.
Barnhart y Chavez filed a notice in the case April 2, notifying the court she had received information Carpenter had died. But she said errors in the obituary made her suspicious.
"I sent off to vital records a request to get an official death certificate," the defense attorney said. "But right about then was when we found out he was in jail in Lincoln County."
It's unclear how long Carpenter's scheme would have worked.
The Bernalillo County District Attorney's office was suspicious, too.
"We did some research," district attorney spokesperson Pat Davis said. "We were unable to find a death certificate with the Office of the Medical Examiner.
"We were unable to find anything from vital statistics. So we asked the judge to continue the warrant until somebody could verify one way or the other that he was not here or that he could be found."
Crash survivor Russell Kealen, 93, told News 13 he knows very little about Carpenter.
"I don't know beans from apple butter about him," Kealen said. "All I was told was that he was drunk."
Kealen is still recovering from injuries to both of his legs. He was notified this week of Carpenter's arrest.
U.S. marshals reported finding Carpenter hiding under a pile of rocks outside Capitan.

What jumped out was the age group and who they are likely voting for.
Obama / McCain
18-24: 74% 21%
The rest of the age groups are more or less even with ages 65+ leaning more for McCain. Those folks should probably avoid leaning - hazardous to their health.
Now, if you are a member of this group and are part of the 74% you are probably feeling good about yourself. If you are in the 21% then you are probably used to feeling desperate and angry that your peers ostracize you as if you were the next coming of the bubonic plague.
But this number is very telling. Showing to us that a large group of freshly minted liberals, on average still in college, is in a very good position to influence these elections. Enthralled by the concept of "what they want the world to be" and their utopian ideals they hammer their message to anyone willing (or not willing) to listen. Credit can be given to the universities of America that are now optimized and streamlined for maximum liberal output. Moreover, due to the significant increase in communication capabilities these freshly minted liberal robots tend to move in large buzzing crowds feeding off each other. Just like succumbing to smoking out of peer pressure, the current cool thing to do is to vote for change. Almost forgot, hope too.
This group also happens to be the least experienced, they have simply put - lived less than any other voting group. Their knowledge of the world comes from what they have read and studied, certainly important, but unfortunately does not provide the kind of education one needs to make an informed decision. The issues that are most vital to this group are typically fairness and equality. They are emotionally captivated by the issues that plague our society and are determined to fix them at whatever cost. To them history and failure of liberal policies is not a fact or reality, because it conflicts with what they see as a broken system.
Lastly, this group happens to have a common trait. A feeling that they are not understood, they have a remarkable ego and self-esteem that can only be found among 18-21 years olds - a sense that they have finally grown up and grasped the issues of life. They are fierce in defending their beliefs, which are often just bits and scraps of truth chewed up and shoved down their throats for easy digestion. Akin to baby birds crying in a nest waiting for their mother to feed them. But unlike helpless birds these individuals are physically capable and emotionally powerful. A mere suggestion that perhaps they do not understand is often met with stiff resistance and anger. Often a retort of the same "no, you DO NOT understand".
Luckily under normal circumstances due to whatever magical reason, they do not show up where it most counts. Despite the efforts of pop stars and politicians relying on their support - their vote is silent.
Not this time. This year, we have a candidate whose policies and style appeal not only to Hamas and dictators, but also to this disenfranchised group. Mr. Obama has done everything in his power from facebook-like networks, video games and ACORN to physically shove these people into the voting booth.
Which begs the question. Why should anyone vote for a man, whose largest support base happens to be the least experienced, most idealistic and most liberal? If you can't see your foreign policies and taxation being handled by 21 year olds, why vote for a man who resonates with them so very loudly?
This is what is wrong with this country.

Origin Deal Alert: Green Monday Sale & More
You might be thinking, "I already bought a bunch of games at great prices during the Black Friday to Cyber Monday weekend sales, but alas, I just remembered another cousin that I need to buy a gift for. Are there any great deals on games left?" Well, you're in luck, because we have lined up a pretty good deal for Green Monday Weekend.
Go ahead and thank eBay for Green Monday, as they've coined the phrase to describe how the second Monday in December has been a consistent sales performer.

If you still haven't grabbed titles like Battlefield 3 Premium Edition, FIFA Soccer 13, Batman: Arkham City, The Sims 3: Seasons, and others, then now is a great time to stock up.
Besides the Green Monday Sale, we've also lowered the price of Need for Speed: Most Wanted by 50 percent. That means that you have until Tuesday to pick up the latest (and one of the greatest) NFS installments for half off. And both of these offers still count towards our Free Shipping offer—if your order totals $39 or higher, then standard or economy shipping will be on us.
Whether you want to engage in the ultimate Battlefield experience or make some trouble in Need for Speed, this weekend will be a great time to grab some games at a discount. Don't miss out on this chance to save on Origin titles before the sales end at 11am PST on Tuesday, December 11, 2012.

I drove by Wendell Apartments today and there was a lady raking leaves. I can understand picking up trash, but raking leaves? There were more falling than she was able to rake.
Give her credit. We need more like her.
I would like to say to the person who put the article in SpeakOut entitled Pet your pets, amen! I would also like to add there should be tougher laws on people who drop their unwanted puppies or kittens into woods or along the highway.
In view of the increased number of suicides and emotional problems for returning military personnel and others in the military, maybe the Pentagon should revise and rework its techniques for basic training, which I understand involves tearing down the ego of new recruits and then rebuilding it into a killing machine. Why do that? I would not want that done to my child. Why not just train them in fighting skills and leave their personalities alone? The best warriors throughout history have been those who were of the highest intelligence and training, not those who were turned into gladiator beasts. What is our military thinking? What is their plan? I'd like to see it changed. I don't think a more refined training for recruits will alter their effectiveness, in fact it might improve it.
Could I get someone to explain the tax for me? I know that it is .7975, but I have an invoice and the food tax is lower. I have an invoice in my hand that shows food, $2; Hefty bags, $5.75; tax no. 1, 44 cents; and tax no. 2, 9 cents. The total of the invoice is $8.28. I'm not understanding this. Takes someone smarter than me. Can someone please explain this?
This is to the comment to the pastors entitled You can't take it with you. A man was talking about pastors taking people out to eat on Sundays. Well, I'm a pastor. I know what you are talking about when you talk about a can of pork and beans. At times my family has had to do without. This whole persona that you got that pastors are driving around in fancy cars and living it up, well you are looking at it from the wrong side and wrong point of view. The pastor's life is not the most glorious life, but it's the life chosen for us to do by God. We are men of God. I do agree that some pastors go to extreme lengths when it comes to money instead of spirit. But I know for a fact that if anybody needs help in any way, whether it be commodities or a tank of gas, they are blessed. The Bible tells us to be content with what we have and not worry about the wants, but worry about the things that are needs. You just need to be sure with what you read in God's Word. Your are doing a from of judging yourself when you're looking at the pastors and the churches. And you say you tithe and you can't take it with you. What have you done on a personal basis yourself to help those in need? When have you bought someone a tank of gas? When have you paid someone's utility bill? It goes two ways. You have to live church throughout the week, it's not just a building. You are the church. It's not just a group of people, individuals need to make a change, too. Read that in your Bible.

In G 2/08 (OJ 2010, 456) the Enlarged Board stated that from the reading of Art. 31 and 32 of the Vienna Convention taken together it follows that the provisions of a treaty (here the EPC) must first be construed according to the ordinary meaning of the terms in their context and in the light of its object and purpose, which means that the judge is not entitled to depart from clear provisions of law, this principle pertaining to the requirement of good faith. From the wording of Art. 32 Vienna Convention it can also be derived that preparatory documents are primarily to be drawn into consideration in order to confirm a meaning or to determine a meaning if the first and ordinary means of construction would lead to ambiguity or to an absurd result (see also decision G 1/07 of 15 February 2010, point 3.1 of the Reasons).
In T 1173/97 the board analysed some aspects of the meaning of the expression "computer programs as such", with the emphasis on the "as such", and arrived at the conclusion that a computer program product is not excluded from patentability if it possesses the potential to bring about a "further" technical effect. The board was of the opinion that that interpretation to the exclusion of computer programs as such under Art. 52(2)(c) and (3) EPC 1973 was in full agreement with the provisions of the Vienna Convention. In its interpretation the board did not go beyond the ordinary meaning given to the terms of the EPC. The meaning it attributed to the expression "as such" in Art. 52(3) EPC 1973 was, in its opinion, not a special meaning within the meaning of Art. 31(4) Vienna Convention, which would have required the consent of the parties to the EPC.

According to The World's Smallest Political Quiz, I am (a) Left / Liberal, and on most parameters I agree with this, except.. I often feel much more at ease in the company of (neo)conservatives.., like, for instance, Douglas Murray, or Mark Steyn.., both of whom are notorious free speech advocates..
I would have loved, therefore, to celebrate Future Day, March 1, in the company of another outspoken neo-conservative, – Canadian free speech crusader Ezra Levant, who was in town – (Copenhagen) – to receive this year's Sappho Award, – "given to a person who has combined journalistic skill and fearlessness in uncompromising writings"
True, – neo-conservatives don't care much for the welfare-state, – they frequently express an unsympathetic indifference towards inequality, – (although less so than Libertarians), – they are often climate-change
deniers skeptics, – (and I couldn't care less..), – so what is it about them I find so.. liberating, so uplifting..
Well, – I very much appreciate their
provocative, rebellious impeccable manners and dedicated opposition to (soft..) totalitarianism, – their love of freedom, – their integrity, enthusiasm, rhetorical skills, i.e. sharp-wittedness and absolutely wonderful sense of humour.. – and these are just some of their virtues..
[ Hopefully, Conservative scumbag, Jacques Delacroix, is (not..) reading this.. ]
Anyway, hear Ezra Levant's speech, below.
Probably 99 % of "offensive" statements are junk, but in that dump heap there is the occasional diamond.., and if you say any "hateful" words are now banned, you eliminate the possibility of progress that comes from breaking up the old order..
By definition, you need to "offend" the old order to bring in a new one..

Pentagon leaders, including BMDO Director LtGen Lester Lyles, have announced sweeping changes in the US BMD program, including a delay in the possible deployment of an NMD system from 2003 to 2005. They said their decision was based more on concerns about technological readiness than on threat. Lyles, pointing to almost never-ending problems in the THAAD program, said the Pentagon "can't afford to fail" on NMD. Other BMD programs are also discussed.

Arms Control In 1998: Congress Maintains The Status Quo. Arms Control Today. John Isaacs, Oct 01, 1998, pp 16-20
The article assesses Congresses actions with respect to arms control in 1998. Overall the author believes Congress' actions were a wash -- some movement towards arms control (such as not abrogating the ABM Treaty) and others away from arms control commitments (failure to approve the CTBT). Other areas include turning away the Republican led charge for a deployed NMD system, terminating construction of 21 B-2 bombers, failure to decimate Nunn-Lugar provisions, and the addition of billions of dollars to the military budget and ballistic missile defense programs in particular.

Iraq's Reconstitution Of Its Nuclear Weapons Program. Arms Control Today. David Albright and Khidhir Hamza, Oct 01, 1998, pp 9-15
Iraq has provided few indications that its quest for nuclear weapons has ended. This article provides a history of Iraq's attempt to build a nuclear weapon (starting with development of a safeguarded fuel cycle) through the bombing of the Osiraq reactor by Israel, to the development of electromagnetic isotope separation, to the chemical enrichment of LEU feedstock. During the Kuwait war, Iraq still lacked an indigenous source of fissile material. The Iraqi leadership ordered the diversion of its safeguarded HEU fuel, planning to enrich a portion of it and build a nuclear weapon within six months. Iraq has denied trying to reconstitute its nuclear weapons program, although Iraqi documents suggest otherwise, especially right after the war. There are no known facilities working on nuclear weapons, although Iraq has taken pains to keep its nuclear weapons teams together. The author believes that Iraq could make a nuclear device within two to 12 months after deciding to do so, assuming it acquired sufficient fissile material, with 2 months being the more probable candidate if HEU is obtained.

While both have declared a moratorium on further testing, the international community has been pressuring them to sign the CTBT. Pakistan stated it would sign the treaty only if there were no restrictions or pressure, including economic sanctions. Of the 44 nations whose ratification is necessary for the treaty to enter into force, only India, Pakistan, and North Korea have failed to sign the treaty.

Boeing is developing a tactical follow-on to the Airborne Laser to help defend against next generation cruise missile threats. Called the Airborne Tactical Laser (ATL), the self-contained, roll-on roll-off DEW uses a smaller version of the chemical oxygen iodine laser on the ABL. It also employs Boeing's proprietary sealed exhaust system. The aim is to provide protection for friendly forces, high value assets or civilian targets, under cloud layers. ATL will have a tactical range of up to 12 mi. and possibly beyond, Boeing said. ATL validation test is scheduled for this month.

New Radars Peel Veil From Hidden Targets. Aviation Week & Space Technology. David A. Fulghum, Jan 18, 1999, pp 58-60
After years of experimenting, the US has found a potent mix of weapons - radars in multiple bands, massive computing power in small packages and innovative algorithms for sorting through huge amounts of data - to identify and track some of the most hard to find targets. Senior defense officials believe the new blend of technologies should allow US forces to battle the stealthiest threats in the air, be they cruise or ballistic missiles or aircraft. In addition, the systems should make it easier to find the best hidden targets on the ground. While the efforts were academic at first, they have taken on new urgency in recent years. US intelligence officials warn that stealthy cruise and ballistic missiles could be on the market within a few years.

Russia-Iran Link Fuels Nuke/Missile Threat. Aviation Week & Space Technology. Paul Mann, Jan 18, 1999, pp 22-23
The US has lodged trade penalties against three more Russian institutions for allegedly providing sensitive missile and nuclear assistance to Iran. Citing Iran's "aggressive pursuit" of WMD and the missiles to deliver them, the White Hose last week ordered an import/export ban against the Moscow Aviation Institute, Mendeleyev University of Chemical Technology and the Scientific Research and Design Institute of Power Technology (NIKIET). The ban applies to them alone, not to the Russian government. U.S. government aid to, or procurement from, the three also is banned. Some U.S. authorities suspect Teheran is pursuing longer-range, larger-payload Shahab 4 and Shahab 5 missiles in a broad program that over a period of years might give Teheran an IRBM, or even an ICBM, capability. Iran is believed severely short of funds to sustain an indigenous program on its own.

Pentagon Delays SBIRS Launches. Aviation Week & Space Technology. Robert Wall, Jan 18, 1999, pp 26, 29
The Air Force has told SBIRS-High prime contractor Lockheed Martin that the program is being restructured and the first launch pushed back 2 years until 2004, Pentagon officials said. SBIRS-High will provide much more capability than DSP, which prompted the USSPACECOM to urge the USAF not to slip the program. DSP satellites take 40-50 sec. to discern a missile's launch and direction. SBIRS is designed to detect smaller missiles and provide precise launch and direction information in less than 20 sec. The SBIRS-Low constellation that will track missiles during their midcourse after their motors have burnt out also faces a possible 2-year slip. Air Force officials have said for a long time that launching the first SBIRS-Low satellite in 2004 involves a lot of risk. But now they are realizing that the timeline has gone from being hard to meet to being basically unattainable.

Although DoD appears poised to inject $150m into the fledgling mobile, corps-level surface-to-air missile Medium Extended Air Defense System (MEADS), German and Italian officials say much more is needed for development to continue. If the DoD budgets $150m for MEADS from 2000 to 2002 as expected, German and Italian officials would consider abandoning the controversial program, which has been the victim of politics since its inception in 1996. MEADS officials say $3b would be needed for the program to reach production by 2007, with the US obligated to a 55% share or about $1.8b. Averaged over seven years, US commitment would be about $260m annually.

Old English lyft, left 'weak' (the left-hand side being regarded as the weaker side of the body).
The original core sense of left in Old English is 'weak'—the majority of people are right-handed, and the left-hand side was regarded as the weaker side of the body. The political application of left originated in the French National Assembly of 1789, in which the nobles as a body took the position of honour on the president's right, and the Third Estate—the French bourgeoisie and working class—sat on his left. See also ambidextrous, sinister. In baseball left field is the part of the outfield that is to the left from the perspective of the batter. In US English something that is left-field or out of left field is surprising or unconventional, or possibly ignorant or mistaken. The connection with baseball probably came from the fact that in many early ball parks the left field was larger than the right, making it more difficult to retrieve balls hit there and sometimes leading to delay and general confusion.

My Company's Application Components" SAP KERNEL 32-BIT" SAP KERNEL 6.40_EX2 32-BIT > z/OS 32bit
Now the system is up and running but in our EARLY WATCH REPORT we are getting this particular warning
"You are running a 32-bit SAP kernel on a server with a 64-bit operating system.
32-bit SAP kernels are subject to many restrictions regarding memory management. A 64-bit SAP kernel version is available for your 64-bit operating system and SAP kernel version. Consider switching to this version."
But we are unable to find the 64 bit kernel for z/OS in the download location
My Company's Application Components" SAP KERNEL 64-BIT" SAP KERNEL 6.40_EX2 64-BIT
I wanted to know if there is any 64 bit SAP kernel for z/OS ?
Are we getting a False warning in EWA , if so how to correct the error ?
Thanks and Regards
Basis Team
Pls check in /swdc My company's Application components >>SAP KERNEL 64 BIT UNICODE >SAP KERNEL 6.40_EX2 64-BIT UCx
Hi ,
The kernel for z/OS can't be found in the path you have mentioned . Our system is a non Unicode.
Basis Team
If you've always run with a 32 bit system you can ignore the message as it is possible to run a 32 bit kernel with 64 bit OS. The 64 bit kernel should be available for download from the marketplace and is better to use on a 64 bit os.
There is no z/OS 64bit kernel on 6.xx based systems. Just ignore this wrong warning in EWA.
Thanks a lot Thomas Vogt
Better yet, why not open an OSS message and ask SAP to correct the earlywatch report so it does not show a warning for 32bit kernel on 64bit OS when the SAP version is 6.xx and the OS is z/OS? That would only make sense if they have not provided a 64bit kernel, and it sounds like they have not.

" Great hostel that is the best option for Tena it is about a 10min walk into town or a $1.50 cab ride but you are in an Amazon Jungle Cabin and you feel like your in the Jungle. They also run great tours. The one day tour to Amazooinca is the best trip. You go tubing through the Amazon as well as going to the rescue centre. Also the full day whitewater rafting is epic and run by locals who grew up on the lake. The hostel is awesome with amazing breakfast! The owner is lovely and very helpful. "- nicolebury

May 18, 2003
Duquesne Results | Complete Results
Princeton, New Jersey - Duquesne freshman Melissa Stewart paced the eight members of Duquesne's Women's Outdoor Track and Field Team who had qualified for the 20th annual ECAC Division I Women's Track and Field Championship. The event was held this weekend at Princeton University's Weaver Track & Field Stadium.
Stewart's discuss throw of 43.12 meters, 141 feet six inches, was good for sixth place at the four-day championship event. The Indiana, PA native previously qualified for the NCAA East Regionals with a toss of 47.55 meters (156 feet 0 inches) at the Atlantic 10 Championships two weeks ago. (A mark of 150 feet even is needed for the NCAA championship competition.)
The regionals will be held at George Mason Stadium in Fairfax, Virginia on Saturday and Sunday, May 30-31, 2003. The finals are scheduled for June 11-14, 2003 at Sacramento State's Hornet Stadium.
Teammates competing this weekend:
In addition, the men's team competed in the IC4A Track and Field Championships this weekend, also held at Princeton. Chuck Mohan was the lone healthy representative for the men's squad. For more information, please click here.

Stayed here prior to a flight from PHX. The hotel appears to be somewhat new and the rooms were modern and clean. I got a rate of $71 per night so it was a great deal. There is an Amerisuites next door and from the outside that hotel looks nice as well. The front desk staff was very friendly and called after check in to make sure the room was ok. My only complaint woud be that the ice machine on the 6th floor did not work but the one on the 5th did. No big deal! I didn't use the airport shuttle but it was offered.

August 17, 2004 – Lorrie Morgan & Sammy Kershaw Back Together Again!
Sammy and Lorrie were each country stars with strong musical pedigrees when they first connected romantically.
Nashville-born Lorrie, the daughter of the late Grand Ole Opry star George Morgan, had alreadly made her musical mark with hits like "Watch Me," "What Part of No" and "Five Minutes."
Sammy, a Louisiana native, came on strong in the '90s with "Cadillac Style," "She Don't Know She's Beautiful" and "Third Rate Romance."
They were married in 2001. Naysayers were quick to predict it wouldn't last, and Sammy and Lorrie were equally determined to prove them wrong.

The Business Week Best Seller List
When it came to sandbagging the opposition, no one showed more skill than A) Richard Nixon, B) Lee Atwater, or C) Ben & Jerry's Homemade Inc.
For Guy Kawasaki, the correct answer is clearly C. As a fledgling, Ben & Jerry's faced a potentially crippling threat to its ice cream distribution network from rival Haagen-Dazs. Ben & Jerry's turned it into a public-relations disaster for that opponent and its parent, Pillsbury Co. Haagen-Dazs had allegedly told a distributor to stop handling Ben & Jerry's or he would lose Haagen-Dazs' account. Ben & Jerry's responded with a one-man picket of Pillsbury headquarters and bumper stickers reading: "What's the doughboy afraid of?" The low-budget, David-vs.-Goliath campaign won tons of public support, nationwide press coverage, and ultimately a legal victory.
Kawasaki's How To Drive Your Competition Crazy: Creating Disruption for Fun and Profit (Hyperion, $22.95) includes a number of such tales--other heroes include Honda Motor Co. and Virgin Atlantic Airways Ltd. But this effort by the former Apple Computer Inc. marketing exec and Macworld columnist isn't just a collection of anecdotes about leaving the competition in a lather. Instead, the author effers a four-part company-improvement drill that tells how to lay the groundwork, focus on customers, "do things right," and then torment the competition.

On April 29, before the crowd arrived to celebrate the 40th year of the ever-popular Mazzetti's Bakery, Rudy and Julie Mazzetti sat together and looked around at all the flowers well-wishers had sent — bouquets filled with every color imaginable, bouquets with balloons. Along with the Pacifica Tribune, there were a few others who stopped in early to congratulate Rudy and Julie on their bakery's 40th year, including Pacifica City Councilmember Len Stone and Pacifica native son and Daly City Mayor David Canepa. Canepa gave the surprised couple, a couple known for their generous hearts throughout the Bay Area, a Certificate of Commendation. There is no place like Mazzetti's Bakery.
Rudy was born into the bakery business. His folks ran the New Geneva Bakery in Daly City. He liked the business and at the age of 18, he opened Mazzetti's Bakery in Pacifica with his late mom Julia and his sister Vickie. (His mom retired from the bakery in 1998. Vickie worked at the bakery in its early years.)
"Back in the early days, Rudy made maybe 10 cakes a week," Julie said. "Now we make 90 cakes on a Saturday, and those are just the cakes on order. That number does not include walk-ins."
Julie and Rudy married in 1984. The Mercy High School San Francisco graduate had no prior experience in the bakery business.
"We had our family," Julie said. "And I didn't want to go back to a full-time job. But I grew to love it, and we run this business as a family. If we need our daughters, anytime to pitch in, they are there."
Pacifica residents since 1987, the couple has three daughters: Nicole, 25, and twins Angela and Gina, 22. Nicole and Gina help their mom with the "internal" workings of the bakery, which includes paperwork. Daughter Angela is active in baking and decorating and does the cupcake line, which includes such "small cake" selections as chocolate raspberry, chocolate with cream cheese, strawberry, Oreo, and marble. Which leads right into the long list of other fabulous Mazzetti selections — all made with fresh, wholesome ingredients.
There's their Derby Cake. That cake is so popular that the bakery goes through five to six hundred pounds of strawberries and bananas a week to meet the demand. Other big sellers include their bran muffins, their focaccia bread, as well as their sourdough, Dutch crunch, and sweet Italian breads, their cakes, pies, cheesecakes, pastries, donuts and cookies, and seasonal delights such as hot crossed buns and pumpkin pie. There are also their Bay Area-known wedding cakes and custom cakes. Many of their customers are the children of customers.
The common thread that ties everything together is love. That is their secret ingredient. Customers agree.
"Their Derby Cake is to die for and just thinking about their honey bran muffins makes me want to stockpile them," said longtime customer Courtney Conlon. "They are good, generous people and they sweeten everything with a smile."
"They have the best baked cookies, anywhere," said Patti Campillo, another longtime customer. "Their wedding cakes are beautiful and delicious. What you find at Mazzetti's cannot be found anywhere else."
The Mazzetti's are known for leaping in when their community needs them. Following the September 9, 2010 San Bruno pipeline explosion, the family threw together a spaghetti feed fundraiser in seven days.
"We didn't have money to give away, but I knew I could raise money," Julie said.
The family, their employees and the community came out in full force. Things were donated. Julie and Rudy's staff worked for nothing to put that dinner on the table. They raised $32,000. They also donate end-of-the-day bread daily to the Missionaries of Charity on Milagra. Their donated cakes often highlight local nonprofit events. They work long hours. They are the recipients of multiple "best of" awards.
"It's not just Rudy and me," Julie said. "It is a team effort."
The couple said they have been blessed by many extraordinary employees. The late Glen Ballard started with Rudy and worked at the shop for 36 years. Paul Rosales, Claudia Fox and Sue Premenko are all 20-year employees, and Sue's husband Dave and their daughters have long been on hand with help. Jesue Baez-Pech and Carmen Ramirez are also longtime employees. "Never forgotten" Kim O'Brien keeps returning and new to the staff is Tina Ferrari and Joe Battaion. Then there is their "wonderful" sales staff: Chelsea, Jodie, Katie, Johnny, Nicole, Nate, Miranda, Michelle, Colleen, Anthony, Aly, Emily, Nabile and Tiffani.
"One of the things that touches us deeply is our seniors," Julie said. "They come here every day and sit and talk. They have so much to say. They are sacred to me."
"We are people, people," Julie continued. "Our employees are our foundation and our customers keep us going. We like to think of ourselves as the bakery with the heart."
"Herman Melville once said: 'We cannot live only for ourselves. A thousand fibers connect us with our fellow men,'" longtime customer Erick Digre said, trying to find words to explain Mazzetti's impact on the community. "One gets this experience here at Mazzetti's, from the Pacificans who frequent it and its owners."

A Quote by James Martineau on art, blindness, bravery, difficulty, eternity, fear, god, heart, heaven, incredulity, life, love, passion, perspective, quiet, resolution, secrets, selfishness, sensuality, separation, silence, sorrow, soul, spirit, tears, t
Let any true man go into silence; strip himself of all pretense, and selfishness, and sensuality, and sluggishness of soul; lift off thought after thought, passion after passion, till he reaches the inmost depth of all; remember how short a time and he was not at all; how short a time again, and he will not be here; open his window and look upon the night, how still its breath, how solemn its march, how deep its perspective, how ancient its form of light; and think how little he knows except the perpetuity of God, and the mysteriousness of life: - and it will be strange if he does not feel the Eternal Presence as close upon his soul as the breeze upon his brow; if he does not say, "O Lord, art thou ever near as this, and have I not known thee?"- if the true proportions and the genuine spirit of life do not open on his heart with infinite clearness and show him the littleness of his temptations and the grandeur of his trust. He is ashamed to have found weariness in toil so light, and tears where there was no trial to the brave. He discovers with astonishment how small the dust that has blinded him, and from the height of a quiet and holy love looks down with incredulous sorrow on the jealousies and fears and irritations that have vexed his life. A mighty wind of resolution sets in strong upon him and freshens the whole atmosphere of his soul, sweeping down before it the light flakes of difficulty, till they vanish like snow upon the sea. He is imprisoned no more in a small compartment of time, but belongs to an eternity which is now and here. The isolation of his separate spirit passes away; and with the countless multitude of souls akin to God, he is but a wave of his unbounded deep. He is at one with Heaven, and hath found the secret place of the Almighty.

While there are certainly too many bad adaptations of good TV, The Addams Family succeeds on its own terms, as well as being as inventive, and funnier, than the TV version of Charles Addams' cartoon strip. There's not much plot to speak of (something about a Fester lookalike and attempts to usurp the Addams' fortune) but that is easy to forgive when the jokes come machine gun fast and the casting is so inspired.

In a nutshell
Raul Julia and Anjelica Houston are sizzling as heads of the spooky family, Christopher Lloyd gurns gruesomely as Uncle Fester and Christina Ricci's performance as Wednesday, a sinister eleven year old who's favourite game is called 'Is There A God?', is wonderfully dark. A twisted treat.
