I'm the odd man out over The Lieutenant of Inishmore. I admire Martin McDonagh's gift for play construction and his talent for farcical humour, but his mockery of Irish terrorists belittles their awful significance. All my colleagues, however, went wild about McDonagh's sensational black farce when it premiered in 2001 and transferred to the Pit Theatre in January. Now this gleeful exercise in bad taste, with artificial blood spurting from bodies and corpses laboriously cut into disposable chunks, will pleasure young people in search of cheap thrills. For at its best, the humour has a dark, adolescent vitality. "Surely you can't be asking me to chop up my own son," complains Trevor Cooper's thick Irishman, charged with hacking his offspring into segments. "Well I'm not doing all the work myself," complains his teenage sidekick.
The courageous novelty of The Lieutenant of Inishmore is twofold. McDonagh suggests Irish terrorists are hypocrites, caught in futility's cycle, with the violence they perpetrate offering them no real gains. His anti-hero, the
young Lieutenant who has defected from the INLA and precipitates an orgy of killing, is fuelled by psychopathic impulses, child-like sentimentality and puritanism. With such men running wild, it's implied, no wonder Ireland remains so turbulent.
McDonagh's ingenious method of sustaining these charges is to trivialise the terrorist fanatics in a plot of farcical absurdity. The action revolves around two dead cats. The Lieutenant, young Padraic, is passionate about no living thing apart from his pussy. When first seen, this oneman splinter-group is jovially torturing a man whose crime was to sell cannabis to Catholics as well as Protestants. Yet Padraic has only to discover his cat dead than he lapses into uncontrollable grief and is quite prepared to avenge his passé pet by shooting his father. McDonagh's jovial intention is to poke fun at terrorists' lack of proportion and self-destructive fanaticism.
An INLA death squad comes searching for Padraic, since its policy is to sell drugs to all and not give a toss about doped young Catholics. And though Padraic's teenage girlfriend comes to the rescue, it's not long before the stage becomes a bloodbath. No one really minds. Wilson Milam's production, set in a primitive stone cottage with some awkward external scenes, powerfully conveys McDonagh's cool, sardonic flippancy. The actors are impressive, too: Peter McDonald's Padraic, a nonchalant torturer who's rampantly sentimental, Domhnall Gleeson's dimmish cat-slayer and Elaine Cassidy's teenage terrorist are outstanding. Unfortunately McDonagh's bad-taste, black humour doesn't greatly amuse me. And I disagree with his thesis. Irish terrorists aren't victims of futility. Violence forces change upon us. The awful fact is that it works.

Roaming along the streets of Pompeii, I just saw broken columns, foundations and rubble. Seeing the large mosaics really put it in perspective.

Philip Imbrogno, whom Lance Moody showed a while back as having faked his educational credentials:
And the wonderful writer, Philip Coppens, who died too soon and too young, two years ago:
With such cavalier use of "experts" – one a little loose with his academic achievements and one who hasn't been with us for a while now – History 2 undercuts whatever journalistic cachet it pretends to have.
It's depressing to find that such programming is often full of canards when there are so many odd and unusual things to look at, with experts, many living and many with authentic credentials available to be heard on the topics the Channel likes to air.
Pressure should be brought to bear on the owner(s) of History to get in line with truth and transparency before a whole raft of millennials take away (more) "facts" that aren't and information that is corrupt and intellectually demeaning.

While the 1950s Catalan façade has been left untouched stylistically, architects Carlos Ferrater and Juan Trias de Bes have made some major changes to the former bank while retaining its symmetrical simplicity. The nine-storey building's unassuming façade opens to a light-drenched atrium, around which the hotel rooms have been designed. Crossing the atrium via a floating catwalk, guests pass into a lobby before being drawn to a split-level mezzanine platform – flanked on one side by Moments restaurant and on the other by Banker's Bar – from where they view the central Blanc lounge below. "Previously visitors walked down into the building, so we designed an elevated ramp for the gallery entrance to make it feel as though you are walking on air," says de Bes. "By placing black reflective stone at floor level, there is a multiplying effect to the perceived height of the windows and atrium."
The building's character also provided much inspiration to Patricia Urquiola, who knew she must come up with a visual story specific to Barcelona while hinting at the Oriental roots of the Mandarin Oriental brand. "I noticed all this light flooding into the building, and wanted to harness it to mirror the light that shines in this Mediterranean city," comments Urquiola. "Then I thought of how a white glove represents elegance and service. Closing my eyes, I knew there had to be a continuity of design flowing through the spaces; one point of view. But I also wanted there to be a sense of memory here."
Mandarin Oriental, Barcelona, Spain, by Patricia Urquiola

The original structure, with rooms for staff, a double hall and long hallways with lots of doors has been transformed into a spacious, transparent single-family apartment for four people, full of light and air.
A kitchen in combination with cabinets from floor to ceiling has laser-cut front panels, all spray painted white. This pattern results in a dynamic mixture of open and closed cabinets, the holes also function as integrated handgrips. The transparency of the object's skin gives depth to the volume which is complimented by furniture like the Grcic chair one. An atrium with open staircases brings natural light from a large roof light into the living area. Along the open staircase a wall of two stories high is covered with clear pine wood, and connects the two levels. Upstairs the master bedroom is situated next to a large bathroom with a finish of structured tiles from Patricia Urquiola, glass, and wooden cabinets.
Home 07, Amsterdam, Netherlands, by i29 | interior architects
The radical functionality of jet fighters and the elegance of supersonic aircrafts like the Concorde have inspired the style of the Berlin based architecture and design office KINZO. For a young family in Hamburg, KINZO has created a kitchen, reflecting the streamlined aesthetics, but also the spatial economics of aircrafts: The upper cabinets are reminiscent of the overhead compartments of aircrafts – and they swing open just the same way. The kitchen elements seem to float in space, cleverly arranged lights enhance the bright, airy and slightly "clinical" impression – but first of all, they create an illusion of space in a room of barely 20 square meters. What's more, this bespoke kitchen didn't cost a fortune.
Jet-Kitchen, Hamburg, Germany, by KINZO
It all started early this year when Jasper Morrison introduced us to the owners of one of the apartments in the housing block unit of the Marseille-based Radiant City by Le Corbusier. The Apartment 50 is not a museum; it is a lived-in space that we remodelled – just for the time of the summer season. We decided to feature a selection of objects from our collection of designs which seemed to rightly fit in this apartment and match the way the owners are living in it. As an echo to Charlotte Perriand and Jean Prouvé's original furniture of the space, it seemed natural to us to articulate the remodelling around the SteelWood collection, Magis – including a table, some chairs and a shelving system. Additionally, while remembering that Le Corbusier had a special interest in tapestries, we felt comfortable with the idea of installing a group of Clouds, Kvadrat up on the wall. Finally, a Zip carpet, Vitra and two of our latest lighting designs, including Lampalumina, Bitossi and LightHouse, Established & Sons and Venini, complete this ephemeral remodelling project.

Despite its compact layout and clearly defined living zones, the model apartment appears extremely spacious, an effect that was achieved through a strong emphasis on transparency and openness in the design of the individual elements. A glamorous, curved staircase forms the central core of the apartment and opens up the two floors to create an open airspace, around which all the other rooms are grouped. Stepping onto the staircase thus becomes the ideal way of experiencing the apartment in its entirety.

Alternative Revenue Streams Makes Facebook Stock A Good Buy For 2016
- Facebook accelerates alternative revenues stream developments.
- Oculus business line will grow significantly next year with the Rift launch.
- Messenger monetization through P2P payments and ride-hailing partnerships.
- Local business directory and reviews system to boost social media revenues.
For a long period, Facebook (NASDAQ:FB) has dominated the social media market without a real competitor to threaten its leadership position. From time to time, several newcomers attempt to challenge Facebook's dominance like Google+, Twitter (NYSE:TWTR), Secret and others, but none `01of them have been able to get close to Facebook. As shown in the chart below, Facebook controls almost 50% of the social media market. Facebook's biggest competitor is the video sharing platform YouTube with 22%, and Twitter drags behind with only 4% of the market.
When a company controls a market in such a convincing manner, its biggest threat is to fall into stagnation and expect that the current situation will last forever. A few years ago, Facebook started a process to generate new business lines to boost total top-line figures and create new revenue streams in addition to the advertising revenues from its social media platforms.
Oculus Rift is probably Facebook's biggest bet towards developing new business lines, and the first generation of the long awaited VR headset is expected to be released in Q1 2016. Revenues in this segment include the device price that consumers pay, app store revenues, and licensing fees of the Oculus software to other tech companies, like Samsung Electronics (OTC:SSNLF) Gear VR. In my opinion, virtual and augmented reality will be the hottest consumer electronics devices of 2016, with plenty of new products like Google Aura (formerly Glass),Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) Hololense, Sony Corp (NYSE:SNE) PlayStation VR, HTCXF Vive, etc. In the VR segment of the smart headset, Facebook-Oculus is perceived to be the market leader, attracting much attention to its product introduction and creating high expectations from investors.
Another new business line that Facebook is accelerating and expects to grow even more in 2016 is Messenger monetization, through new added-value services. The first service in this emerging revenue stream was the P2P payment transaction that was launched earlier this year as the first step to monetizing Facebook's successful Messenger app. Last week, Facebook took another step in this direction when it announced that Messenger users could hail Uber cars directly from the app.
In the first stage, this new feature is supported only with Uber and only in the U.S. However, Facebook plans to expand this service globally and include other ride-hailing services like Lyft in the US. Uber will pay Facebook a fee from the rides fare and will subsidize first car ordering through Messenger up to $20. This move will enable Facebook to capitalize on the boom in ride-hailing services worldwide and benefit from all players as Uber competes with the Lyft/Didi Kuaidi/Ola/Grab Taxi worldwide network.
Facebook did not abandon the social media revenue line and launched a local business reviews service to compete with Yelp (NYSE:YELP), Angie's List (NASDAQ:ANGI), and Home Advisor. For Facebook, this is a low-hanging fruit as most of the local businesses are already active on Facebook and Instagram, and most of the company/product launches are shared on these platforms, and customers search for businesses on Facebook and write reviews about and grade local businesses. Moreover, Facebook could use profile information to suggest businesses that might meet users' interests and drive more traffic to the reviews services.
These three new revenue streams are Facebook's growth catalysts for 2016. As shown in the chart below, Facebook stock price hiked more than 33% this year, while sell-side PTs offer an additional 25% upside from the current Facebook stock price. For me, Facebook stock is a prominent long pick for 2016.

Analyzing Markov Chains using Kronecker Products
€ 43,49
pdf eBook
Sofort lieferbar (Download)
Juli 2012
BeschreibungKronecker products are used to define the underlying Markov chain (MC) in various modeling formalisms, including compositional Markovian models, hierarchical Markovian models, and stochastic process algebras. The motivation behind using a Kronecker structured representation rather than a flat one is to alleviate the storage requirements associated with the MC. With this approach, systems that are an order of magnitude larger can be analyzed on the same platform. The developments in the solution of such MCs are reviewed from an algebraic point of view and possible areas for further research are indicated with an emphasis on preprocessing using reordering, grouping, and lumping and numerical analysis using block iterative, preconditioned projection, multilevel, decompositional, and matrix analytic methods. Case studies from closed queueing networks and stochastic chemical kinetics are provided to motivate decompositional and matrix analytic methods, respectively.

From the reviews:'Dayar's book on Kronecker products for Markov processes addresses an important topic which, up to now, has not been thoroughly discussed as a single entity in the literature. ' The book has numerous examples throughout to illustrate the results and methods which the author presents. ' the book is a valuable tool for learning to apply Kronecker representation to continuous time Markov chains.' (Myron Hlynka, Mathematical Reviews, May, 2013)

Looper (2012)
International trailer [Embed content] In the future, time travel will be invented - but it will be illegal and only available on the black market. When the mob wants to get rid of someone, they will send their target 30 years into the past, where a "looper" - a hired gun, like Joe - is waiting to mop up. Joe is getting rich and life is good until the day the mob decides to "close the loop," sending back Joe's future self for assassination.2 Weeks ago in Entertainment
[Embed content] When a group of petty criminals is hired by a mysterious party to retrieve a rare piece of found footage from a rundown house in the middle of nowhere, they soon realize that the job isn't going to be as easy as they thought. In the living room, a lifeless body holds court before a hub of old television sets, surrounded by stacks upon stacks of VHS tapes. As they search for the right one, they are treated to a seemingly endless number of horrifying videos, each stranger than the last. Bringing together some of the top filmmakers in the game today, this wickedly conceived horror anthology sends the viewer through a gauntlet of suspense, terror, shock, and downright brutality—instantly distinguishing itself from a sea of lackluster found-footage horror flicks. The diverse and deviously creative minds behind V/H/S shatter any preconceived notions about the genre, making it feel inventive and captivating once again.2 Weeks ago in Entertainment

Bollywood movie Aandhi, directed by lyricist Gulzar, was released in 1975. It was an Indian political drama film. It was believed that the movie was based on Indira Gandhi's life.
Several promotional posters ahead of the release of the movie had carried texts such as "Watch the real life of your Prime Minister".
It was believed that the movie was based on Indira Gandhi's life
However, the movie was not allowed a full release initially when Indira Gandhi was in power in 1975. The film was banned in 1975's emergency. According to sources, the then PM had asked Prime Minister Office (PMO) officials to watch out the movie in order to take the decision of lifting ban imposed on it.
After Indira Gandhi's defeat in the 1977 elections, the ruling Janata party had cleared it and had it premiered on national television.
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Friday said, "Today is a sad day for all of us. With her passing away we have lost a colossal figure. Her family wants a quiet funeral arrangement for her. We need your cooperation to respect their wish."
The reclusive star had been ailing for a long time. She died after cardiac arrest around 8:00 am on Friday.

Iron Wolf kneeled before the figure in the shadows, who sitting on a throne. All that could be seen was the lower half of a metal body, with feet that ended in sharp, deadly claws, and two glowing, narrow, angry eyes. Iron Wolf spoke, "I am sorry, all I could get was one crate."
A grand, booming voice came out of the figure in the shadows. It was a commanding voice. A voice that was intimidating to all who heard it. "I am disappointed. But we have enough for our plans for now."
Iron Wolf exhaled in relief, "That's good to hear, sir."
"Tell the Iron Bull to come see me," the voice said. "Then go get some rest, my son."
"Yes, sir," Iron Wolf stood up and walked out of the room.
A claw came out of the shadows and clenched itself into an angry fist. Angrily, the voice said, "Justice Knight... You will be eliminated."

One local sociologist says the trial of Ashley Benton shows that not enough programs exist to help prevent gang activity. Benton is accused of fatally stabbing Gabriel Granillo in a gang fight. Houston Public Radio's Capella Tucker reports Benton is just one example of how girls get involved in gangs.
"There needs to be programs aimed at these kinds of kids because these kids, the crew that she was hanging out with, were the kids who were really demonized in those communities, nobody wanted to deal with those kids."
University of Houston Sociology Professor Avelardo Valdez directs the Office for Drug and Social Policy Research at the Graduate College of Social Work. He did research into male gang members and found females to be highly involved. Valdez says the girls are not members, but rather are affiliated with the gang members who may be relatives or friends. Still, the girls suffer many of the same consequences including victims of violence, heavy substance abuse and sexual promiscuity.
"In many cases it's more acute for instance getting pregnant of course deciding to keep the child at 15, 16 years old."
But Valdez's research did find some sources of hope for these girls. Those who had positive relationships with their mothers tended to suffer less consequences of gang affiliation. The best case scenario is to prevent gang activity all together, but Valdez says that's not always possible.
"You're not going to remove these girls from those communities. You're not going to radically change their behavior. So all you can do is hope you can influence their behavior in such a way that they are going to minimize the risk that they're involved in."
In recent years, there've been efforts to encourage fathers to play a responsible role and Valdez says help for mothers shouldn't be forgotten.
"Fathers need to be involved in their families. There need to be programs to incorporate these. I'm wholly supportive of those and there are a lot of good programs trying to do that. But on the other hand we've been kind of ignoring the mother-daughter relationships and I think that needs to be part of a package."
Valdez says hope exists for girls affiliated with gangs if they can avoid the life-long consequences of gang activity such as drug addiction and criminal behavior.
"Now there always is a small fraction that will transition into adult criminality and become really serious offenders and you have a whole different spin that goes on. But the vast majority, if they don't, if they make it through without any serious consequences will mature out on their own."
And at that point, usually in their mid-20s, they blend into the fabric of society. Capella Tucker, Houston Public Radio News.

Home Group Mortgage Remodification This company is a total Rip Off! They Ask for $150.00 for an Audit dont do it! grandview Michigan
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
If this company calls tell them they are on Rip Off Report Website. I am assuming the people that call are using alias names. A lady by the name of Billy Wright called me telling me how they work with several agencies like state and government to modify your mortgage and interest rate. She said first they have to do an "Audit" to see if you qualify. She said that they have a 97% success rate. She stated if I didnt qualify for the remodification that they would refund me the $150.00 Audit fee.She also said that if i qualified the next step would be to make several more payment totalling under $1500.00 dollars to finish the process. She then went on to say that she would call me back the next day which never happened. Then she called 2 days later and left me a message saying she missed my call and had great news!And that she would call me back later. It never happened. I then called to speak with them and some guy answered and put me on hold only to return saying she was busy and would call me back which she never did. This is a total scam! Theyre using hype to get you excited over a few days then call you back in hopes of getting more money out of you! I've learned that there shouldnt be any money asked for up front for a remodification. Home oweners beware!!!

The review article by Calfee and Matthay (March 2007)1provides an incomplete picture of the recent literature on prolonged glucocorticoid treatment in ARDS. Five randomized trials (n = 518) have been published investigating prolonged glucocorticoid (hydrocortisone, 200 to 240 mg/d; methylprednisolone, 1 mg/kg/d) treatment in early acute lung injury (ALI) [Pao2/fraction of inspired oxygen (Fio2) < 300],2 early ARDS (Pao2/Fio2 < 200),4 and unresolving ARDS (methylprednisolone, 2 mg/kg/d).5–6 These trials consistently reported that prolonged glucocorticoid treatment was associated with significant improvement in Pao2/Fio2,,2–6 and a significant reduction in markers of systemic inflammation,2–6 BAL neutrophilia,6–7 duration of mechanical ventilation,2–6 and ICU stay.2,4–6 The magnitude of reduction in duration of mechanical ventilation (ventilator-free days) is shown in Table 1
, and is far greater than the reduction observed with the recommended low-tidal-volume ventilation,8or conservative strategy of fluid management.9
Overall, glucocorticoid treatment appears most effective when started at a lower dosage (1 mg/kg/d) early in the course of ALI-ARDS.2,4 Mortality is overall improved with prolonged glucocorticoid treatment (91 of 276 patients; 33%; vs 111 of 242 patients; 46%; relative risk [RR], 0.76; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.62 to 0.93; p = 0.007), and the benefits are more significant when treatment is initiated before day 14 of ARDS (84 of 252 patients; 33%; vs 108 of 216 patients; 50%; RR, 0.71; 95% CI, 0.50 to 0.87; p = 0.001). The mortality benefit with glucocorticoid treatment is greater than the benefit observed with low-tidal-volume ventilation (9%),8 with number needed to treat to save one life of 6 for treatment initiated before day 14.
Finally, the conclusion of the ARDS network trial6 that methylprednisolone treatment increases mortality in patients randomized after day 14 is challenged by the large imbalances in baseline characteristics (control vs methylprednisolone) in this small subgroup of patients for age (45 ± 13 years vs 52 ± 24 years), male gender (56% vs 35%), trauma (20% vs 13%), pneumonia (28% vs 44%), serum creatinine (1.0 ± 0.8 mg/dL vs 1.3 ± 1.3 mg/dL), APACHE (acute physiology and chronic health evaluation) III score (79 ± 22 vs 87 ± 25), compliance (26 ± 15 cm H2O vs 18 ± 7 cm H2O; p = 0.02), and lung injury score (2.7 ± 1.2 vs 3.7 ± 0.87; p = 0.001) [mean ± SD] that likely accounted for the uncharacteristically low mortality in the control group (8% vs 36%). These factors should be taken into consideration in analyzing the role of glucocorticoid treatment in ARDS, and should stimulate additional clinical investigation of this inexpensive and highly effective antiinflammatory therapy.
The authors have no conflicts of interest to disclose.
Data are presented as mean ± SD.
NHLBI ARDS = National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome Network.
Meduri et al highlight the nature of the ongoing debate over the value of corticosteroids in acute lung injury/ARDS. The study by Confalonieri and colleagues1was not included in our review because the study population had severe pneumonia, not ARDS. The retrospective study by Annane et al2was a secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial of corticosteroids in septic shock; benefit was noted in the subgroup of patients with sepsis-associated ARDS who failed to respond to a corticotropin stimulation test. The benefits of corticosteroids in this group likely derive from their beneficial effects in the overall population of nonresponders in this study rather than from an effect specific to ARDS; no statistical test of interaction between corticosteroid therapy and ARDS was reported in the article. In addition, while post hoc subgroup analysis may be useful for hypothesis generation, generalizing the findings to patient treatment can be perilous.3 The 2007 study by Meduri et al was not published at the time of our review; however, this trial4has significant limitations as well. For one, the majority of patients randomized to placebo who remained on mechanical ventilation at day 9 of the study were crossed over to open-label methylprednisolone, making outcomes analysis after that point (such as mortality and ventilator-free days) very difficult to interpret. In our review,5we focused on the largest and most rigorous trial on this issue: the prospective, randomized controlled trial performed by the ARDS Network, which demonstrated no mortality benefit to corticosteroids.6 We agree that the size of the subgroup of patients randomized after day 14 in this study is small, and that conclusions drawn from this subgroup, albeit a prespecified one, should be tempered by this consideration; however, most of the baseline imbalances cited by the letter were not statistically significant.
We also question the validity of the authors' approach of pooling data from the five studies cited in their letter. Since the trials did not have similar inclusion criteria (ie, ARDS vs pneumonia, early vs late ARDS), they would be poor candidates for a traditional metaanalysis.7 Moreover, the authors do not describe their meta-analysis methods (ie, fixed vs random-effects model, statistical tests for heterogeneity). For these reasons, we also disagree with their calculation of a number needed to treat based on this data. The heterogeneity of prior studies was a primary driving force behind the creation of the ARDS Network's large randomized controlled trial, which has rendered the most definitive verdict in this field.

- "Twins of Faith" – An Epic Experience - January 5, 2015
"O you, who believe, be supporters of Allah (swt)…" (61:14)
"The Twins of Faith 2014" conference was a life-changing experience. Helping in the cause of Allah (swt) was something I had longed to do. This conference was my chance. This was the first time I had volunteered in such an event. The tension and excitement were both at their peak before the event.
I was first given the job to sell tickets. I had to go to my school, friends and family members and tell them about the event, convincing them to come. Believe me, it was no walk in the park. I only managed to sell five tickets to my family members. In school, none of my friends were interested. I was really disappointed. I told them about how beneficial and gratifying it would be, but still I got a response in the negative. I gave up all hope and started thinking what a Fitnah filled world it was, but I remembered that our job was to remind people – Allah (swt) is the One, Who can change the hearts. So I kept reminding them and they finally got interested, but it all ended in vain, when their parents did not allow them. Frankly, I was quite upset but I kept my calm.
Now about the responsibilities I had on the day of the event. I was an usher at the registration desk. We were summoned to "Marriott" at 7 o'clock in the morning, so we headed for the venue right after praying Fajr. It was still dark outside. It seemed like a small job to perform, just like a drop in the sea, as the older volunteers were assigned all the hard tasks; however, I found satisfaction in the fact that one should not belittle his good deeds. The Prophet (sa) said: "Do not belittle any good deed, even meeting your brother (Muslim) with a cheerful face." (Muslim) Furthermore, we were told in the weekly meetings that deeds were based on intentions, and I did it solely for Allah (swt). The rewards of deeds are based on the intentions (Bukhari). Time and again we were reminded to keep a smiling and cheerful face, as it makes the people feel welcomed, and it also is a Sunnah. The event was a blast and a great learning experience. They told about the rights of parents, how they are the easiest route to Jannah, and the rights of children. Even though many problems arose, everybody had a great time. The volunteers and the team members handled every situation calmly, always showing a jovial demeanour.
The best thing was that we were within close proximity with the shaykhs. We got the best seats in the house, right next to the stage. The dinner with the shaykhs was great, as they related their lifetime stories. It was a highly learning experience. The meetings were fun, and everybody had a great sense of humour – we were helping in the cause of Allah (swt), while being social and active in the community.

Carole King, George Lucas feted at Kennedy Center Honors
By Jeff Mason and Sarah N. Lynch
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Singer-songwriter Carole King, Star Wars creator George Lucas and actress Cicely Tyson descended on Washington on Sunday to be feted for their contributions to the arts as the latest recipients of the coveted Kennedy Center Honors awards.
Joined by actress Rita Moreno and conductor Seiji Ozawa, the artists began a night of celebrations at the White House, where President Barack Obama lauded their accomplishments over decades.
"Tonight, we honor five artists who helped tell the story of the first American century through music, theater, and film, and by doing so, helped to shape it," he said to a room filled with stars including actress Julie Andrews, singer Usher, and film director Steven Spielberg.
The president peppered his remarks with humor and praise, noting Ozawa had ruined a career as a pianist by breaking his fingers playing rugby, only to become a great conductor.
He praised Lucas for having raised America's children thanks to the Star Wars films.
"Without him, movies would not look as good or sound as good as they do today. Spaceships might still fly around the screen with little strings attached to them," he said to laughter.
The day was overshadowed in some ways by the recent attacks in California and Paris. Obama was expected to miss the first half of the Kennedy Center performance itself to make a rare address to the nation from the Oval Office.
The artists kicked off the festivities on Saturday night at the State Department with a dinner and toasts from their friends and contemporaries. Continued...

The landlord does not accept the following in this place:
Are you on your way to Lisbon and wish to live in a fantastic flat located in Graça neighbourhood? We might have found what you're looking for! This charming and well-decorated flat set close to Martim Moniz metro station could be ideal for the following months. The area is well-served in transport links and commercial sites and it's quite close to the heart of the city. There are some cultural spots nearby, that you can explore during your free time! This lovely accommodation is great for students as it is set in a very popular area of the city, close to basically everything!
The apartment provides two bedrooms, two bathrooms - one of which is private for the tenant - a kitchen and a living room. It's modern and has a trendy look!
What's not to love, right?
You will be sharing this property with the landlady.
Family also lives in the property.
Looks like no one had the time to review this place yet!
These conditions were defined by the Provider and are subject to change.
We have verified this property. We are still working on having the Landlord's contacts and documents fully verified.
Getting Around
Your new neighbourhood
Path to university
At Uniplaces we make the process of booking an apartment as easy as possible for both tenant and landlord.
That's why we have our own team of professional photographers that verify our properties and pick our landlords carefully in order to save time on viewings: we think it's old-fashioned and time-consuming.
You can look at forty different apartments on our platform in the same amount of time that it takes to see a room.
The pictures you see here haven't been photoshopped, so they'll be really accurate.
If you've still got any doubts, we'll keep the money that you transfer us until 24h after your move-in date.
If something's not exactly what you saw online, we'll help you move somewhere else and return your money.
We can only give you the contact details of your landlord after your booking is accepted. But we can guarantee that Uniplaces chooses the landlords it works with very carefully.
Besides, we've had students whose favourite part was living with a local!
Landlords and host families can be great city guides, help you out with translations and even become your friends.
As soon as your booking is accepted, you're given the landlord's contact details. Then, you can discuss all details directly with them, such as when you'll be moving-in.
Students move in and out at different times, so your flatmates might change during your stay.
It's a great opportunity to make new friends!
We personally speak to students who we place in Uniplaces apartments and are sure we will find the right place for you as well!
At the bottom of the property page, you have a calendar where you can see the availability of that room/apartment, according to the landlord.
But if you're still unsure about that we're happy to help.
Tell us your move-in and move-out dates and we will double-check if the place is available for you!
There are two different types of deposits: the Holding and Security deposits.
By clicking on "Deposit" at the bottom of the offer page you will get more information about each type of deposit.
In general, the deposit is paid to cover for any potential damages that may occur during your period of stay or will be used as rent compensation in case you leave earlier than originally planned.
If no damages occur and you leave on the agreed move-out date, your deposit should be refunded by the landlord in a way you both agree on.

A Stunning Custom Built Beachfront Vacation Rental
Looking for a luxury oceanfront vacation rental home? Departure Bay Beach House, located on famous Departure Bay, is an elegant custom built 'walk-on' beachfront home, located in Nanaimo, Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. Custom built in 2012 by one of Nanaimo's premiere builders, our modern, stylish two-storey private residence, can be your vacation rental dream come true.
An Ideal Waterfront Location
Departure Bay is short distance from shopping and dining with a number of restaurants within walking distance of the house. Nanaimo is a thriving community of parks, beaches, charming eclectic shops, waterfront walks, marinas and myriad dining choices from fine to casual, plus all the modern convenience needed for an enjoyable stay. These include grocery stores, gas stations, libraries, theatres, restaurants and delis, specialty food shops, spas, doctors and dentists, massage therapists and beauty salons.
The city of Nanaimo sits mid-Island and is a central arrival and departure point for BC Ferries to the BC Mainland. There is also an airport, or you can come and go via seaplane (Harbour Air, Seair Seaplanes or Westcoast Air) into Nanaimo Harbour from downtown Vancouver or Vancouver International Airport. The seaplane trip is only 20 minutes!
The TransCanada Highway (Hwy #1) runs directly through the heart of Nanaimo. From here you can venture north to Mount Washington, Courtenay and Comox, west to Tofino or south to the Cowichan Valley and Victoria.
Owner info
Year Purchased: 2012
About the owner: This custom built home is owned by our family. It was custom designed and built by one of Nanaimo's most well-respected builders. It sits on the site of one of the original Departure Bay summer cottages built circa 1900. The original wood-frame summer cottage was not salvageable, and so, in 2012, a custom designed house was built on the site. Lots of history. Brand new luxury home.
Why the Owner Chose Departure Bay (Nanaimo C, BC, Canada):
The house site and the whole of the Departure Bay Beach area is one of the most historic in the region. Walk on waterfront is hard to find anywhere in the world, and Departure Bay Beach House is just that...the beach, and the ocean, just outside the ocean side doors of the house.
The Unique Benefits at this House:
Waterfront. Oceanfront. Mountain views. Custom build. Modern fully equipped home. Lots of space for family, friends and entertaining. Listen to the crash of waves, stroll the beach, breathe the clean ocean air, de-stress, relax, rejuvenate, re-connect. That's what our family does. For us it is all about big family dinners, good fresh food, lots of laughter, idle hours of reading, listening, talking or just kicking back, sipping a cool drink, taking it all in. Hours slip by and time seems to stand still. Sleep well. Swim. Meditate. Connect. We always leave too soon. We think you will feel the same way.

More larger ships expected as carrier alliances revise schedules.
Press Releases
22 Jan 2016
The Panama Canal Authority is betting its future on more than a third set of massive new locks that can handle post-Panamax ships and attract more container services. It is counting on construction of a large new container terminal that will serve as a transshipment hub for North and South America and the creation of a new logistics zone along the canal that will attract assembly and light manufacturing activity.
18 Jan 2016
The opening of larger Panama Canal locks, already postponed several times by construction delays, has been pushed back again and now is expected early in the second quarter, a canal official said.
12 Jan 2016
Even though the official opening of Panama Canal's third set of locks is only about four months away, the true impact of the $5.25 billion project on U.S. East and West Coast ports is yet to be determined because of the many factors that affect international trade flows, the vice president of marketing at Manzanillo International Terminals said Monday.
28 Dec 2015
The much-anticipated Panama Canal expansion project is now 96 percent complete, but will not be open to commercial traffic in April as previously reported, according to the canal authority.
18 Dec 2015
Evergreen Group's Colon Container Terminal in Panama has completed the third phase of an expansion that will allow the terminal to handle the largest ships that will transit the Panama Canal's soon-to-open larger locks.
02 Dec 2015
The Panama Canal Authority said a contractor has advised it will complete work next month on reinforcement of lock sills that failed tests and raised questions about the planned April opening of the canal's expansion.
18 Nov 2015
The Panama Canal Authority expects to find out next month whether repair and reinforcement of concrete gate sills can be completed in time to avoid delaying the scheduled April opening of the canal's historic expansion.
18 Nov 2015
The vessel backlog that's plagued the Panama Canal since mid-October remains above normal levels, but canal authority officials say wait times are now diminishing since they started taking steps to expedite traffic through the waterway.
12 Nov 2015
Widespread predictions that an expanded Panama Canal will set off a boom in Panamanian transshipments are unlikely to pan out, according to port analyst Asaf Ashar.
04 Nov 2015
Ocean carriers are canceling services and telling some shippers they can expect weeklong delays due to considerable and unexplained congestion through the Panama Canal.
