Village plans to hike 6er registration cost from $5 to $10
SARANAC LAKE – The village will raise the cost of registration in its Saranac Lake 6er hiking program by $5 later this year.
Mayor Clyde Rabideau announced the change on the 6er Facebook page last week. He said the price for a 6er patch, decal sticker and certificate will go up from $5 to $10 on Dec. 21.
Rabideau told the Enterprise this morning that the increase in cost is a response to the success of the program. In order to become 6ers, hikers have to climb all six mountains in the Saranac Lake area – Ampersand, Baker, Haystack, McKenzie, St. Regis and Scarface – and register their hikes with the village. More than 410 people have done it since the program began in May.
"When we started out, we had no idea how successful it would be, and what the response would be and how much time and effort it would take," Rabideau said. "As it turns out, we're going to hit 500 6ers in the next few weeks. The response has been overwhelming, and as a consequence, it's taking time, and we really aren't covering all the costs at $5 for the patch, the certificate and the postage."
Rabideau said the $5 increase is modest, and he thinks most people will understand the reason for it.
"This is a self-sustaining program, and we're trying not to use any tax dollars," he said. "We want to keep the program going. We had to increase the cost to adjust for the realities of what it cost."
In addition to the expense of buying patches, stickers and sending out new 6er mailings, which the mayor said is just over $5, there's also some labor involved. Rabideau said four people – himself, village Clerk Kareen Tyler, Community Development Director Jeremy Evans and Community Development Assistant Kelly Brunette – are doing the bulk of the work, some of which is done on village time and some of which is done after hours on a volunteer basis.
No one raised any objections to the price hike after Rabideau posted it on the 6er Facebook page last week.
"Such a great program and worth the $5 or $10 or whatever it may be," wrote Dawn Leone, who said she completed all six mountains on Sept. 28.
The next big event for the 6er program is in December, when the village invites hikers and climbers from near and far to become the first Winter 6ers. A "Winter Saranac Lake 6er Kickoff" event is set for Dec. 21. It will begin with a shotgun start at 6 a.m. at Berkeley Green, at the corner of Main Street and Broadway. The first person to hike the six peaks and return to the downtown park will become the first Winter 6er. Hikers who complete the grueling 30-mile-plus trek in less than 24 hours will also become Ultra 6ers.

Lady Raiders lose to Hudson Valley 79-70
JOHNSTOWN – After trailing for the majority of Saturday's Mountain Valley Conference game the Fulton-Montgomery Community College Lady Raiders fought back to take a 48-47 lead over Hudson Valley Community College.
The Lady Vikings were not ready to give in. Going hard to the hoop, HVCC consistently drew fouls from the FMCC players and converted 17 of 20 free throws in the closing minutes to upset the Lady Raiders on their home court, 79-70.
"We need to improve defensively, there were just too many blow-bys today," FMCC coach Kevin Jones said. "We need to get down in our stance and play better defense. They were going by and we were reaching."
Stephanie Rice got FMCC off to a quick start hitting a pair of free throws, however, Shikera Lawson and My'Asia Alston answered with nine points between them for the Lady Vikings to build an early lead.
HVCC steadily increased its advantage and after a short run midway through the opening half, established a 23-14 lead.
The Lady Raiders chipped away at the lead and three times in the closing minutes got the lead down to three points before falling back to trail 35-29 at the half.
It didn't take long for FMCC to close the gap in the second half. The Lady Raiders' Monae Abrams stole the ball and drew a foul as she laid it in. She completed the three-point play to give FMCC its first lead of the game since the opening minute, 48-47, with 10:39 left in regulation.
After HVCC tied the game, Abrams stepped back and hit a 3-pointer to put the Lady Raiders up 51-48.
The Lady Vikings made the most of their trips to the free-throw line to tie the game at 54 with 8:54 remaining.
This time they went on the attack with a high-intensity press that forced turnovers to spark a 12-2 run and open a 66-56 advantage.
The Lady Raiders were able to get the lead down to seven points but could not get any closer as the HVCC players made their free throws down the stretch to complete the 79-70 upset.
"The biggest thing I want to do is execute, get the ball down the court and get good buckets," Jones said. "I thought we did that the beginning of the second half. Then we gave up a couple of baskets and the kids put their heads down. But the kids continued to plug away at it and we were right there the whole game."
Rice hit five 3-pointers en route to her double-double of 23 points and 10 rebounds. Abrams also finished with double-double of 21 points and 10 rebounds, while Sherice Gayle added 10 rebounds and eight points.
Three HVCC players finished with double-doubles.
Sarah Janson led HVCC with 21 points and 12 rebounds, while Lawson had 16 points and 13 rebounds and Alston finished with 14 points, 10 rebounds and four assists. Samantha Tomeck chipped in with 16 points and four steals.
"They are a good team," Jones said. "They have added some kids and the ones they added are quality players. I told my team again that nobody wins the region today and we need to get better to be ready for the end of February."
Hudson Valley Community College 79, Fulton-Montgomery Community College 70
LaPietra 2-2-6, Tomeck 7-2-16, Alston 2-9-14, Lawson 8-0-16, Sangetti-Daniels 1-4-6, Janson 7-7-21. Totals: 27-24-79.
Jordan 1-2-5, Chea 2-1-5, Flowers 2-4-8, Rice 6-6-23, Abrams 6-8-21, Gayle 3-2-8. Totals: 20-23-70.
3-point goals: HVCC 1 (My'Asia Alston); FMCC 7 (Stephanie Rice 5, Kendra Jordan, Monae Abrams).
Halftime: HVCC, 35-29.

Asia World Capital Group Report BlackBerry Reiterates Commitment To Enterprise
According to Hong Kong's Asia World Capital Group, BlackBerry's new CEO reaffirms back to basics enterprise focus for the embattled smartphone manufacturer.
Hong Kong., January 9, 2014 - (PressReleasePoint) - Asia World Capital Group say BlackBerry's new CEO, John Chen, has reiterated the company's commitment to the enterprise and security sectors as the beleaguered smartphone maker begins the daunting journey back to profitability after a bitterly disappointing 2013.
An Asia World Capital Group researcher said, "The company's stock price was decimated in 2013 and, certainly within the consumer sector, mobile carriers from the US to Europe are reducing the range of BlackBerry products they offer so Mr. Chen's decision to drive the company forward by returning to its core strengths in the business sector appears to make a lot of sense."
BlackBerry still has strong support in the business sector thanks to its secure messaging systems like BBM which is largely recognized as the most secure mobile-messaging service available. The company has an 80,000-strong global enterprise customer base which has made significant commitments to the BlackBerry infrastructure and solutions.
Asia World Capital Group analyst believe that while the road to recovery will be arduous for the Waterloo, Ontario-based technology company, a recent 5 year strategic tie up with Taiwan-based handset manufacturer, Foxconn, should help BlackBerry's handset business make a significant contribution to the return to profitability.
BlackBerry revealed yet another withering quarterly loss late December which showed the company lost $4.4 billion after it wrote down unsold inventory including large numbers of the BlackBerry 10 devices upon which it had pinned its salvation in the consumer market.
Asia World Capital Group is thought to expect BlackBerry stock to recover sharply during 2014 citing hopes for improvement in the broader macro-economic outlook as a driver of corporate demand for the company's services and technology.

We have purchased our flight with AA miles SAN/BOS/LHR/NBO. Decided to leave a day earlier to catch a quick 3 day safari to the Mara. I have been calling every day to see if FF seats are avail on a day earlier - 9/6. No luck only one seat avail. Can anyone explain the system to me, what are my chances to get 2 seats by Sept?? I have even asked to check other gateways - ORD/DFW/LAX and JFK. Will gladly take an econ. seat just to get there. I have viewed the websites "Seat Counter" & "Award Grabber" with no luck. Am I wasting my time calling daily? Does anyone out there know if more seats are released closer to the date, or could I get these seats if there are any not sold prior to the flight??? Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Be thankful you still have hair to pull out.
Are you traveling in business class? ("Will gladly take an econ. seat just to get there.") Is it an AA partner award or a Oneworld award? I presume partner, since your route wouldn't include a third Oneworld member airline.
Because your itinerary involves 2 carriers, AA and BA, the hitch could be with either one - no availability to London on AA and/or no availability to Nairobi on BA. Frankly it's a bit late to be changing dates, especially when there's just one flight to your destination every day, and a popular route during the migration.
You have a couple of choices -
1. Phone back every day. Yes, more award seats can be released at any time.
2. Ask about changing it to a first class award instead of business class. There's often more availability in FC than in business.
3. Ask about changing it to a Oneworld award. That requires the use of 2 Oneworld member airlines in addition to AA, but it vastly increases the number of award seats that you could use - SAN-ORD on AA, ORD-MAD on Iberia, MAD-LHR on Iberia or British, then BA and AA for the rest of the trip. Only the miles between stopovers are counted, and if you didn't stop over in Madrid or London, the round-trip mileage to Nairobi from SAN would be the only miles counted, about 19,400, which would fall into the Oneworld award tier for 130,000 miles in business or 180,000 in first, vs. the partner award requirement of 150K in business and 200K in first, i.e., the Oneworld award requires fewer miles.
I'd make the call and inquire about a OW award instead.
Report Abuse
But if the op was able to change awards (allpartner > oneworld or carrier, routing changes) then it had to be done from scratch. Redeposit the miles with $100 fee and take out a new award.
If op decides to change award or routing then make sure you have the new award on hold before cancelling the existing reservation.
Only dates/times changes are free and allowed once award is ticketed. Routing, different carrier, or different award will involve a fee and changing awards.
Report Abuse
Yes, I didn't mention the fee/redeposit etc. stuff because my post was potentially confusing in the first place. A competent Aadvantage rep could hold hands during the switch. If the OP has been advised "to check other gateways - ORD/DFW/LAX and JFK" then the reroute and fee issues has been raised anyway.
Report Abuse
Yes this is a One World award. I have asked for any open seat on any flight to NBO. Yes the problem seems to be no OW seats avail. The hitch is BOS-LHR only 1 seat avail. I did use the redeposit when we had to change our flight from Spain to LHR (don't ask- I'm just so thankful I got a knowledgable AA rep.) I might just have to wait until closer time of flight - 30 days? to get the flights changed.
Thanks for all your input, I will keep trying, after all my husband doesn't call me the "bulldog" for nothing!
Report Abuse
If the pinch is the BOS/LHR I found San Diego to London through JFK, the following flights available for 90K miles departing SAN on Sept. 6 arriving London on Sept. 7 as AA 160 7:45 AM SAN 4:00 PM JFK and AA 124 6:45 PM JFK 7:10 AM
STN. The trick is arrival is Stansted and you would have to get from there (NE of London)to Heathrow (SW of London) but it is better than nothing. There are decent public transportation options through central London to get from one to the other.
Report Abuse
Lauri - I have already purchased the tickes thru AA miles, just trying to get the date changed 1 day earlier. Are these seats open for AA miles?
Report Abuse
Laurie - forgot to mention - this is a one world resv. I do not think I can change for LHR to STN???
Report Abuse
One more time folks, once booked, routing and carriers can't be changed without starting from scratch. $100 fee for redepositing the miles, take out new award.
If you really want to do this, first put the "new" award on hold before cancelling the "old" award.
Report Abuse
That pair of flights was open for AA miles business class (I did the search on line at www.aa.com just a few minutes ago.) I don't know what the difference is between AA and OW as far as availability but you could phone and ask an agent if a change to that alternative was possible on what you have. That JFK/Stansted route is a newer route I believe and maybe seats are more available for that than through LHR.
Report Abuse
AAFF - yes I am aware of the $100 charge have used it. The problem I have is finding the open seats on the day prior with One World alliance. I was just talking with "Shirly" from AA and she was a nasty gal, raised her voice at me and said One World is a terrible way to go, you cannot make any changes to routing at all, ever. I know this is not true because I have talked with many agents indicating I can change dates and gateway cities but not the destination.
Report Abuse
Availability is indeed better to STN than LHR on many days. However, to reinforce AAFF's point, a Oneworld award is set in cement except for date and flight changes. Switching to STN will zonk the whole enchilada, and the real risk is that BA has someone waiting to gobble the LHR-NBO-LHR seats that would be released once the old award is canceled. The FULL *new* itinerary needs to be confirmed and put on hold before the old one is ditched.
In addition to the $100 redeposit fee, you should also consider the £50 - £100 cost to get from STN to LHR.
Also, JFK-STN//LHR-NBO will force a London stopover, since neither STN arrival allows a same-day connection through LHR. The NBO flight leaves LHR at 10:30 AM; the 2 JFK-STN flights arrive at 7:10 and 9:55 AM respectively, not enough time to get across London, but because the next NBO flight is more than 24 hours from the STN arrivals, London will count as a stopover. You'd also need to look at a day earlier departing from SAN (i.e. two days earlier than now planned) in order to get to Kenya on the desired day.
The way the Oneworld award counts miles, JFK-LON-NBO is counted as JFK-NBO provided you don't spend 24 hours in London. If you do "stop over" in London, you count the mileage differential.
SAN-NBO, with no stopovers in either NYC or London is only 30 miles less than SAN-LHR-NBO, so not an impact on the award mileage requirement; however if the OP was already planning to stop over in London on the way back, the "forced" stopover (between the STN arrival and the NBO departure the next day) would render the stopover on the return moot - only one stopover and two transfers allowed in one city. Stansted, Gatwick and Heathrow are all "co-terminals" so a stop in one is treated as a stop in all, regardless that they're hours apart.

Gardyloo and everyone else!
Just got off the phone with AA got an agent that was very helpful, still no go. As we say here in Calif - "Bummer Dude!" No One World availble seats on the LHR to NBO on 9/7. Can get SD/JFK/STN. I'm sure by now AA has some kind of warning flashing about me on their terminals when they bring up our FF acct. Most agents are nice - hope I don't get the "Shirley" again!
Lauri Ann - I know I have viewed the AA site many times logging in with our FF# looking for so called "available" flights using our miles. When I call AA they explain that isn't always up to date.
I'll still be here in case some one comes up with a better idea, thanks all!!
Report Abuse
I'm sorry to tell you but there is no better idea.
Once AA oneworld award is ticketed, no changes to routing, carriers are allowed.
Try to book a new award, put it on hold, cancel/pay for mileage reinstatement and then ticket the new award.
I tried to tell you that few posts back, Gardyloo and AA agents confirmed it yet you are looking for some miracle. No miracles with this award.
Report Abuse
Yes AAFF you are correct- but I will never give up on trying to change the date.
Happy Travels to all!

The Peach 'Snap and Print' system incorporates a brand new manufacturer's print head.
Peach Snap and Print cartridge
Ensuring maximum compatibility and only requiring the snap-in ink tank to be replaced, not the entire print cartridge. This means, if you buy a Peach Snap and Print cartridge for your HP printer your getting a genuine HP print head on the cartridge. Independent tests prove it. U.G.R.A., the Swiss authority centre for medium and printing technology concluded. "The ink of Peach Ltd. and the original ink of Hewlett Packard are equivalent in all important points tested. During the whole test we could not find any disadvantages of the Peach ink against the HP ink."
Peach inkjet cartridge system - Print results
Peach inkjet cartridges achieve the same print results as the equivalent products from printer manufacturers. Swiss ink and development work combined with the very latest production facilities form the basis of a genuine alternative, where everyone is a winner. Peach 'Snap and Print' cartridges are an innovative alternative to original and remanufactured HP and Lexmark printer cartridges. These cartridges feature an original manufacturers printhead for maximum compatibility and incorporate the use of 'Snap in' inks tanks reducing the need to replace the entire cartridge.

In India, like elsewhere, the university is a place of upward mobility. It is also the tense meeting ground of social difference; of young people across caste, gender, religious, and sexual identities who encounter each other in the space of the classroom, where the divide between urban and rural, between English and the regional languages, and between those from radically different family backgrounds is acute, and agonistic. It is a space of relative freedom where young people can meet across boundaries in an otherwise deeply regulated, hierarchical social order. Debates over affirmative action, especially access to education, have been contentious and ongoing since the government decided in 1990 to implement the recommendations of the Mandal Commission Report. The entry of Dalits (ex-untouchables) into the university has been particularly fraught: Claims for mass education and the right to self-representation have been key sites of struggle in a social order that is predicated on the divide between intellectual and manual labor, between "thinking" and "doing." The presence of outcaste subjects as emancipated Dalits thus takes on a special relevance: their presence as scholars and thinkers effects a key transformation of the public sphere, and alters the symbolic economy of caste.
Universities have not taken kindly to this transformation. Dalit students have been subject to routine social violence, which is typically ignored except when it has ended in their self-sacrifice. A report by concerned university teachers of the University of Hyderabad mentions no less than nine reported Dalit suicides between 2001 and 2013 as a consequence of the discrimination Dalit students face. The absence of robust mechanisms to protect students at risk, together with a contemporary political culture of aggressive Hinduization and cultural intolerance has now claimed its latest victim, Rohith Vemula.
Dalit doctoral student Rohith Vemula died by suicide on Sunday, January 17, 2016 in Hyderabad. His death followed a period of extended conflict between campus student groups over political censorship and evidence of state interference in disciplining Rohith and his comrades, all of which appears to have been animated and exacerbated by the caste identity of the students. Described as an instance of "institutional murder," Rohith's death has exposed a long record of discrimination against Dalit students, and confirms that caste prejudice is ongoing. Rohith's suicide note has stunned the nation, and his death has incited mass revolt on college campuses across India. If the university has been a key emancipatory site for Dalits, Rohith's death illuminates both the radical force and the accompanying violence that is attached to the simple demand for a right to education.
The events leading to Rohith's suicide date back to July 2015, and reflect ongoing conflict between Dalit student politics, predicated on demands for self-respect and equality, and intolerance of progressive politics on college campuses across India. Twenty-five year old Rohith was a science student at the Central University of Hyderabad, and a member of the Ambedkar Students Association. In addition to fighting for the rights of Dalit students on campus, the ASA protested capital punishment, and challenged efforts to censor a film screening about murderous attacks on Muslims in the north Indian town of Muzaffarnagar in 2013. An altercation with members of the ABVP (Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad), the student wing of Hindu nationalist forces, including an alleged attack on one of its members, followed. Similar conflicts between the ABVP and progressive student groups, especially those committed to anticaste traditions of radical equality, have taken place across college campuses. For instance, members of the Ambedkar-Periyar Study Circle at the prestigious IIT Madras (IIT-M) also faced harassment and political intimidation by campus authorities in the summer of 2015. Ambedkarites' commitment to constitutional equality is at odds with Hindu nationalists' doublespeak regarding their investment in upholding caste hierarchy, while paying lip service to an anemic concept of social inclusion: hence the agonism between the student groups.
Rohith and four ASA activists were suspended after an inquiry by university authorities. It is now clear that the ABVP brought political pressure to bear on the case through the Union Minister of State for Labor, and BJP leader, Bandaru Dattatreya, who wrote to the Human Resource Ministry (central government) in August to urge action against the ASA students. Dattatreya alleged, "Hyderabad University … has in the recent past, become a den of casteist, extremist and anti-national politics." The ASA students were merely exercising their constitutional right to question the status quo, and to extend political solidarity to movements for civil and minority rights. Still, the desire to discipline Ambedkar Students Association apparently went so deep, and the autonomy of the university meant so little, as to require the intervention of the political party in power, the BJP, at the highest echelons.
The ASA activists were allowed to attend class but barred from public spaces on campus, such as the library and the cafeteria, and their stipends were withheld. (Social boycott has strong resonance with earlier practices of caste excommunication, when Dalits were forbidden from using public amenities. It is entirely possible that the ASA activists perceived this as passive outcasting from the student body.) On January 3, authorities evicted the five students with their things—a portrait of Ambedkar, sheets and mattresses, a steel box. Rohith and his friends stayed in a tent erected inside the college campus, which they named Veli Veda (Dalit ghetto), Shortly after, on January 17, Rohith hanged himself from a ceiling fan in a hostel room. He apologizes in his suicide note for using a friend's room for that purpose: "Uma anna, sorry for using your room for this thing." (Anna, literally elder brother)
The local BJP leader and the Vice-Chancellor of Hyderabad University have both been booked for abetting Rohith's suicide. In the meantime, the political machine has kicked into action, and the BJP has further distinguished itself through a multipronged smear campaign.
Let us begin with the end of Rohith's stunning note: A legal statement of self-responsibility:
I forgot to write the formalities. No one is responsible for my this act of killing myself. No one has instigated me, whether by their acts or by their words to this act. This is my decision and I am the only one responsible for this. Do not trouble my friends and enemies on this after I am gone.
Yet the "formalities" that aim to preempt a criminal investigation and criminal charges against anyone for murder or abetting suicide, and that are self-consciously ventriloquized in the suicide note, are less a counterpoint to the political nature of the suicide than a moment in the latter that consigns Rohith's case to a higher court. What will have taken place with his death is not a matter for the criminal justice system. It requires recognition by the historical justice system.
What Rohith wrote above the postscript to his note is even more devastating. It implicates the social order that has excluded him, and prevented the dreams of this radical humanist. He notes that he had always wanted to be a science writer, "like Carl Sagan," but that his suicide note is "the only letter I am getting to write." He mourns the fact that "The value of a man was reduced to his immediate identity and nearest possibility. … Never was a man treated as a mind. As a glorious thing made up of star dust."
Rohith was deeply sensitive to the cruelty of an order that predicates life on the accident of birth
Anguished by the artifice of his fellow travelers, Rohith is also reminded of his dependence, and the dependence of others on him. Rohith had tried to supplement the wage his mother earned as a tailor with his student stipend. And so Rohith notes that the financial wellbeing of his family now depends on his Junior Research Fellowship: "I have to get 7 months of my fellowship, one lakh and seventy five thousand rupees. Please see to it that my family is paid that." Rohith also mentions the importance of an unpaid loan, which he recalls while dying: "I have to give some 40 thousand to Ramji. He never asked them back. But please pay that to him from that." We do not know the details behind the debt, but we do know about the cycle of giving among Dalit families: Educated Dalits hold study circles for their juniors, urban families take in impoverished students so that they can get an education, and people pool their resources to educate bright youngsters because they are a community asset and collective pride. Education is a debt incapable of return: It can only be carried forward to new generations who must be encouraged to see themselves as "glorious," as "made of stardust." Perhaps Rohith's focus on dreaming, his persistent claim on the right to think (and dream) as a force that transcends the material fact of dependence and destitution, is what most alarmed his detractors. The Ambedkar Students Association drew on the radical anticaste tradition inaugurated by thinkers like Jotirao Phule, Periyar, and, most of all, B. R. Ambedkar, who prioritized intellectual emancipation as the key to challenging the dehumanizing order of caste.
Rohith was deeply sensitive to the cruelty of an order that predicates life on the accident of birth. His was the dependence of an impoverished student on his stipend, but he also exceeded it: The dependence was predicated on his birth. Rohith writes, "My birth is my fatal accident," and speaks about an existential loneliness that has been with him from childhood. All birth is accidental, yet the inequality of caste intervenes, and structures the arc of your life on the accident of birth. In caste society, for Dalits, merely living could be fatal. To annihilate caste and exit its suffocating confines is to experience rebirth. In the anticaste tradition the rebirth is radical because it indicts the violence of caste: To become Dalit (literally "ground down," "crushed," "broken") is to claim the name of a primal wound and make it yours, and thus humanize yourself. If this is a difficult journey for Rohith and his comrades, it is an even more painful journey for those who inherit caste privilege, its beneficiaries: We are asked to occupy that impossible space between history and responsibility.
Rohith's absence of anger—as he outlines the many ways that his dreaming was already foreclosed well before he contemplated ending his life—is remarkable in this regard. "I am not hurt at this moment. I am not sad. I am just empty. Unconcerned about myself." It is as if this young philosopher has let go, and arrived at a moment of detachment that resembles that last great act of Ambedkar's own life: his Buddhist conversion. It is said that the tenor of Ambedkar's last text, The Buddha and His Dhamma, which was written just before his death in 1956 and published posthumously, "… registers [Ambedkar's] experience of tiredness with the social science mode of reasoning. … By giving up a certain kind of language I believe he was giving up the system that gave birth to it." Here letting go is not a "giving up" so much as it is a "traveling over" to a new way of making sense of the world, and one's place in it. The ethical comportment of the New Buddhist is predicated on the exit from Hinduism, "a religion of rules," into a world of principle. Of course it is possible to overstate the analogy between conversion and annihilation, between coming into Buddhism and choosing social exit from a despairing world. Yet we must surely take seriously the remarkable words of a young man who writes, "If there is anything at all I believe, I believe that I can travel to the stars. And know about the other worlds."
The decision to end life is unknowable, even when the social diagnostic surrounding suicide appears to provide compelling cause, or a sympathetic reading of voluntary death. What we do know is that Rohith's exit was final, and thus more shocking and powerful than the social deaths Dalit students suffer daily on their campuses. There could be value in noticing an empathetic affinity between Rohith's note and the other notes, written and unwritten, of hope and despair: Walter Benjamin's suicide when he was unable to cross the border checkposts between occupied France and Spain in 1940, or Paul Celan drowning himself in the Seine in 1970, each weary and desolate about being Jewish in a postwar Europe haunted by the Holocaust. And then there are the many ordinary suicides, deaths of despair, which lack the publicity of those other, more famous deaths.
In the archive of Dalit political culture the example of Vilas Ghogre is perhaps most proximate, and powerful. He is at the center of a documentary by filmmaker Anand Patwardhan, Jai Bhim Comrade, which pays homage to Dalit martyrs, both known and unknown.The focal point of the film, however, is shahir (balladeer) Vilas Ghogre, of the Avhan Natya Manch, the cultural front of a Marxist-Leninist organization, who was humiliated by lifelong poverty and later expelled from the party for his "left deviation." Ghogre committed suicide in 1997 to protest police firing on innocent Dalits in Mumbai's slum colony of Ramabai Ambedkar Nagar.
Patwardhan's film begins with a scene of stark bodies lifting waste at the Mulund garbage dump (Mumbai), a major site of Dalit activism where Ghogre's musical talents were first discovered. The film then takes us on a tour of subaltern urbanity through places of waste, refuse, and informalized existence, for these are the places from which the organic intellectuals of the Dalit movement emerged. Dalit critique emerges in the film as sound, and especially as song: Jai Bhim Comrade traces the musical traditions of tamasha and jalsa, Ambedkari geet (songs commemorating Ambedkar), Ghogre's own performances, and those of the recently banned Kabir Kala Manch. Indeed, the film begins where Patwardhan's earlier film on urban demolitions ends, with the unforgettable voice of Vilas Ghogre, who sings about state violence and caste dispossession.
When he died, Ghogre chalked his suicide note on the wall of his zhopadi (shanty) like graffiti, that quintessentially urban form of subaltern speech: "I salute the martyred sons of Bhim. Hail Ambedkarite unity. Shahir Vilas Ghogre."
Rohith's note leaves us between viewing his death as a political act—essential if we are to produce a model of responsibility that is attentive to the historical violence of caste—and his careful effort to mark his own actions as a form of self-erasure that is both quiet and introspective. It is we who need the courage to knit together his political self and the utopia he imagined with his radical letting go.
Like Ghogre, Rohith ends his note with a salute to Ambedkar: For one last time, Jai Bheem. This is Ambedkar the reluctant founding father, who chaired the committee tasked with drafting the Indian Constitution, but who was not above rejecting the document he had birthed: "I am quite prepared to say that I shall be the first person to burn the [Constitution]. I do not want it. It does not suit anybody. If our people want to carry on, they must remember that the majorities cannot ignore the minorities by saying: 'Oh no, to recognize you is to harm democracy.'" This is Ambedkar who stands at the threshold of a new order. He faces the future, but even his greatest efforts are haunted by the past. Rohith's note reminds us that there can be no prescription for how we are to reckon with that past. But transcend it we must.

What is Contextual Binding?Contextual Binding is the ability to switch out different concrete implementations of a service (i.e. class) at runtime depending on the context in which they are used.
One really cool thing about StructureMap is that it is very flexible. Most times there are multiple ways to accomplish the same goal. The reason for this is because everyone's needs are different and the tool takes this into account.
There are 2 (at least 2, maybe more :) ) ways that we can perform contextual binding with StructureMap.
Context Setup - The classes we will be usingWe will be creating a 'consumer' who likes to consumer soda. The type of soda that the consumer will drink will be injected at runtime via StructureMap and we will swap the soda out at runtime with contextual binding
Consumer Class - The class that consumes Soda
public class Consumer
public Consumer(ISoda soda)
Soda = soda;
public string WhatTypeOfSodaAreYouDrinking()
return Soda.Name;
public Int32 HowManyCaloriesDoYouHave()
return Soda.Calories;
public ISoda Soda { get; set; }
ISoda Interface - The contract for our soda objects
public interface ISoda
string Name { get;}
Int32 Calories { get; }
DrPepper Class - An implementation of ISoda
public class DrPepper : ISoda {
public string Name { get { return "DrPepper"; } }
public int Calories { get { return 250; } }
DietCoke Class - An implementation of ISoda
public class DietCoke : ISoda
public string Name { get { return "Diet Coke"; } }
public Int32 Calories { get { return 99; } }
Setting up StructureMap to know about the various classes
StructureMapConfiguration.AddInstanceOf<ISoda>().UsingConcreteType<DrPepper>().WithName( "DrPepper" );
Setting the Default Instance on the fly:
If you only need/want to swap out a single class at runtime the simplest way may be to just change the instance on the fly.
The code below will show how to do that.
ObjectFactory.SetDefaultInstanceName<ISoda>( "DietCoke" );
var consumer = ObjectFactory.GetInstance<Consumer>();
// we now should have a consumer with an instance of DietCoke
Using Profiles:
A profile in StructureMap is basically a configuration group that allows you to prewire which types you would like to use for various contracts ahead of time. By using a contract you can swap out many concrete types with a single line of code.
The code below will show how to setup a profile as well as how to use that profile.
Creating the profiles
ProfileExpression drPepperProfile = StructureMapConfiguration.CreateProfile( "DrPepper" );
ProfileExpression dietCokeProfile = StructureMapConfiguration.CreateProfile("DietCoke");
Setting the profiles
ObjectFactory.Profile = "DrPepper";
var consumer = ObjectFactory.GetInstance<Consumer>();
// we now should have a consumer with an instance of DrPepper
As you can see, setting up Contextual Binding in StructureMap is pretty easy and is a very powerful tool.

It also looks like the n-deep "With" method will make it in to SM 2.5. This allows you to do provide an instance for a single call to GetInstance, in a thread-safe manner.
For instance, I was using instance names and profiles in a WCF scenario, but since it was two lines, the default instance could get set, a thread switch happened, and now the wrong instance got set for something else.

This is great! Is this possible to do declaratively in the XML config file? Or only in the fluent interface?

I have not tried. I will take a look and let u know.
The most general question I get with StructureMap is "how do I get started?" Personally, I'd recommend

The Weight of Information
Satellite, public events, software, radio, Low Earth Orbit, 04.12.12 — 14.05.14
The Weight of Information is an orbital artwork based on a pico-satellite originally launched on April 19th 2014, and scheduled for re-launch in 2017.
A 2cm x 2cm low-cost autonomous satellite is launched into low earth orbit. The satellite is placed on a decaying orbit and slowly spirals back to Earth. During the orbit the satellite fills its memory with data from its on board accelermoter and magenetometer sensors. The data is immediately deleted and meta data about the quantity of information deleted is transmitted back to ground stations on Earth. The Weight of Information Satellite (TWOi) exists in a universe where gravitation is caused by information, and it wants to escape its spiral trajectory back to Earth. It attempts to climb to a higher orbit by deleting information, to ascend by forgetting. On Earth a series of events called Meet to Delete are staged where people gather to delete their personal information, burning or shredding paper work and clearing data storage in order to and help the satellite by making the world a little lighter.
The project has been manifested as a series of events and exhibitions and one orbital attempt in 2014 as part of Zachary Manchester's Kicksat project on ISS resuply mission CRS-3. After a successful launch and separation orbit the satellite failed to achieve autonomous flight. The orbital attempt is documented in the gallery exhibition Meet to Delete Ground Station
A second launch and event series is scheduled for 2017 including a public ground station installation in Civic Square in Wellington.

TWOI at Energies in the Arts

Time 11:00
Location -33.8839, 151.2203
EG02 Lecture Theatre, UNSW Art & Design, Greens Rd, Paddington
Contact http://www.mca.com.au/events/energies-arts-conference/11406/Explore how energy is engaged in the arts and related creative areas such as literature, poetics, critical theory and philosophy in this three-day international conference. Co-presented by UNSW Art & Design's National Institute for Experimental Arts (NIEA) and the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia (MCA), Energies in the Arts brings a diverse range of scholars and artists together to address historical and contemporary activities on the seemingly elusive properties and potentials of energy. Dr. Anna Davis, MCA Curator, Professor Douglas Kahn and Dr. Josh Wodak from UNSW Art & Design have brought together an array of influential artists and leading scholars serving as keynotes.
Paper PresentationThe Weight of Information is an interdisciplinary artwork based on a pico-satellite that was launched into low earth orbit in 2014 and accompanied by a series of Earth based public events called Meet to Delete. The paper briefly describes the project and goes on to develop the underlying themes of gravity, aggregation and information both in physical terms and as metaphor. Drawing on recently proposed theories of entropic gravity the paper draws parallels with aggregating social processes such as the rise of mega-cities, data centres and the concentration of wealth. After partial success with the initial 2014 launch, a second orbital attempt is planned for 2016 and future directions for the project are discussed.

Make Over, Boxed Brownies
Sprinkle chocolate chips over brownies straight from the oven. Let sit for a few minutes, then spread the melted chocolate. Sprinkle immediately with crushed peppermint candies, pressing in the candies to adhere. Let cool completely before cutting and serving.
Dozens of Brownie Recipes
Pre-Portion Cookie Dough
Drop-cookie dough is great for freezing (and thus baking when a craving strikes!). Portion out the dough onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, freeze, then transfer to a container and refreeze. When you're ready, bake as usual from frozen, tacking on an extra minute or two as needed.
Cakey Chocolate Chip Cookies
Separate Eggs
Separate all your eggs before adding the separated white and yolk to the other ingredients. Consider this a quick and easy measure worth taking to avoid contamination of the bowls due to a yolk accident.
Chocolate Souffles
Make Cookies with Giada
Celebrate the season by throwing together batches of cookie dough. 'Tis the season for holiday cookies, as cookie dough refrigerates for up to 3 days and freezes for up to 3 months.
Giada's One Cookie Dough, Three Ways
Brown Butter for Baking
For recipes that call for melted butter, try browning the butter for a nuttier flavor: Melt the butter and cook until it turns a hazelnut brown, then pour into a heatproof bowl immediately to stop the cooking. Use while still in liquid form.
Anne Burrell's Tips for Baking Like a Pro
Keep Cheese Fresh
Store cheeses in the crisper drawer wrapped in parchment, where the high humidity will help keep them from drying out.
Serrano Ham and Manchego Cheese Plate
Bake Cookies Evenly
Cool baking sheets in between baking batches of cookies by running cold water over the underside of each sheet — placing raw cookie dough on a hot baking sheet will lead to uneven baking.
Our Best Homemade Cookies
Store Cookies Correctly
Store soft and crisp cookies separately as softer cookies will leach moisture from crisp cookies, causing them to become soft, too. Store soft cookies with an orange peel or apple wedge to keep them soft. The apple will need to be changed daily.
Lemon-White Chocolate Cookies
Get Glossy Pastries
For a shiny, glossy crust, brush dough with an egg wash made from an egg beaten with water.
Brush Ina's Apple Turnovers with Egg Wash
Check a Cake
In a pinch, instead of using a toothpick to test cakes and other baked goods for doneness, use a strand of uncooked spaghetti.
Then, Learn How to Frost It Perfectly
Pair Coffee with Cocoa
Add a spoonful of cocoa to your morning coffee for a fun, chocolatey fix.
Or Make Super-Thick Hot Chocolate
Send Cookie Gifts
The secret to mailing cookies without breakage is to stack them in single layers separated by sheets of bubble wrap.
How to Ship Cookies
Beat Better Egg Whites
When beating egg whites for volume, make sure the beaters and bowl are free of any fat, which will interfere with the formation of foamy egg whites.
Little Cheese Souffles
Snip Dried Fruit
Use scissors to snip dried fruit into small pieces — dried fruit can be difficult to chop because of its sticky texture.
Fruitcake Parfaits
Save Croissants
Stockpile your favorite croissants and freeze for the holidays. Wrap each croissant in aluminum foil before storing in a freezer bag. Remove from the foil and heat in a 325 degrees F oven until just heated through, about 5 minutes.
Use Croissants in Bread Pudding
Make Maple Candy
Treat your family to old-fashioned maple syrup candy: Bring 1 cup maple syrup and ¼ cup butter to a boil, 5 to 6 minutes. Let cool for a few minutes, then pour over vanilla ice cream — or snow, if available — so the candy hardens. Indulge immediately.
Or, Make Blueberry Maple Syrup at Home
Give Cookies
After boxing cookies as presents, store the packages in sealed plastic bags until ready to be given to the recipient. The airtight seal will keep cookies fresh for longer.
The Evolution of a Food Network Magazine Christmas Cookie Story
Mull Spices
Freshen up the house by simmering a holiday brew of cloves, nutmeg, cinnamon sticks and orange peels.
Or Imbibe with Mulled Cider
Curl Scallions
For elegant scallion curls, thinly slice a scallion into long, thin strips and submerge in ice-cold water. Use them to garnish holiday roasts and soups.
Tangerine Beef with Scallions
Grill Indoors
It may be cold outside but you can still grill indoors. Make an inside-out cheeseburger: Gently push a cube of cheese into the center of a patty, pinching together the meat to enclose. Cook as usual.
Indoor Beef Burgers with Bobby
Serve a Crowd
Keep cooked foods warm as they rest by tenting them with aluminum foil. The aluminum foil helps keep heat in but lets steam escape so you don't overcook your meat.
6 Tips to a Stress-Free Party
Carve Your Ham
When carving ham, cut the ham crosswise in two to three places before slicing lengthwise so it falls off in smaller pieces.
Glazed Ham with Roasted Apples
Indulge in Eggnog
Treat your family to eggnog French toast? Just swap the eggnog in for the liquid and beat with a few eggs. Top with whipped cream spiked with vanilla and grated nutmeg.
Or Make Eggnog Yogurt
Get Crispy Latkes
For extra-crispy latkes, wrap the shredded potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and wring out as much water as possible.
Potato Pancakes
Celebrate Christmas
Merry Christmas! Unflavored dental floss easily steps in for kitchen twine when tying a holiday roast — just be careful to not tie it too tightly and cut into the meat, causing juices to run and dry out.
How to Roast Meats
Recycle for Better Storage
Save bubble wrap from packages to line stacks of cookware and serving platters when you store them.
7 More Smart Storage Tips
Handle Butter
Hold onto a stick of butter in its wrapper when buttering a baking dish, then store the butter in its wrapper in a resealable plastic bag. Reuse the same stick for greasing other baking dishes.
Be Your Own Barista
Use a blender to make foamy milk. Warm the milk, then pour it into the blender and blend until foamy. For a wintery spin on steamed milk, warm the milk with sprigs of mint or spearmint, strain before blending and serve with a peppermint stick.
Tyler's French Press Cappuccino
Remove Pomegranate Seeds
Release the seeds from a pomegranate half by thwacking at the peel side with the back of a wooden spoon, with the cut side facing a shallow bowl. Use force, so the seeds come flying out.
Guy's Pear and Pomegranate Salad
Freeze Citrus Peels
The grated peel of citrus fruit can be frozen: Drop by the teaspoon on a sheet of plastic wrap, then cover with another sheet and form a seal; roll up and freeze in a freezer bag. Use scissors to snip away mounds as needed.
How to Zest Citrus Fruit
Cook with Champagne
Ring in the new year with a champagne toast! Save leftover champagne for cooking dishes like steamed mussels or risotto. Freeze the champagne in amounts suitable for cooking using ice cube trays or muffin tins, then transfer to a freezer bag.
