An island life for me
Ted Elms recounts his transition from Thames Waterman to a boatman on Furzey Island in the 1960s
Published in December '11
In 1963 I found myself crossing Poole Harbour. I was on my way to Furzey island to meet Lady Illiffe, the owner, to be interviewed for the position of second boatman for the island, and my wife Pam was to be interviewed for the position of cook. By an amazing stroke of luck we were accepted. I think the fact that Pam was also a trained nurse played some part in it. It proved to be a life-altering experience for both of us.
In the space of just one month, I had left my work as a Thames Waterman, Pam had given up her job as a nurse in the Seaman's hospital in Greenwich, we had got married, been to Paris on our honeymoon and moved to a privately owned island.
Furzey is the second biggest island in Poole harbour after Brownsea. It is some thirty acres of pine woods, gorse and bracken and in 1963 it was left pretty much in its natural state. There was a single gravel track, which led from the pier to the only three houses on the island. The big house was used by Lady Illiffe, her two sons and various house guests for about eight weeks a year. The brick cottage was the home of Tony Bailey, the other boatman, and his wife Mary; we moved into the stone cottage.
The cottage came complete with two half-feral cats, whose duty it was to control the mouse population. There was no mains water or electricity on the island. The only water was rainwater; whatever fell on the roofs of the three houses was collected via the drain pipes into tanks next to the houses. My first chore every morning was to pump forty gallons of water – using a hand pump – from the tank up into the roof-tank in the cottage; that would be our ration of water for the day. Electricity was supplied by a diesel generator which would often overload, and when that was out of commission we relied on paraffin Tilly lamps. The sewerage was fed into septic tanks, whilst in the kitchen was a large Victorian earthenware water filter, which it was necessary to fill with three gallons of rainwater every evening. By the next morning the lower chamber would be full of pure drinking water.
The only vehicle on the island was a 1936 bull-nose Morris lorry. This was always parked at the highest point of the island. It had no starter motor and starting it on the handle was the last resort. It would, however, always start if we bump-started it down the hill, hence the parking point choice.
It is fair to say that all this came something of a cultural shock to a boy from south London; I found myself on a steep learning curve. There was much that I didn't know about the harbour, and although I had plenty of boating experience, it was all from my time on the Thames, which had been spent on commercial sailing barges and tugs. The maintenance of pleasure boats was an entirely new job to me, and there were ten boats of various sizes on the island. These ranged from a beautiful thirty-five-foot varnished launch, a twenty-foot work boat, down through several sailing dinghies and a speedboat.
I also found myself involved with the more agricultural side of island work; there were three wide fire breaks cut across the island and it was necessary to keep them clear of undergrowth. We also had to fell trees for kindling and carry out maintenance on all the buildings.
Pam too had to learn new skills; she was often expected to devise menus and cook for house parties. The first of these would arrive at Easter, and the four of us would be kept busy ensuring that all the boats were ready, and that the running of the big house went smoothly. Once Easter had passed, there would be further visits throughout the summer. Lady Illiffe would leave in September and we would be left on our own to look after the island until the following Easter.
Within the space of a single year the transition from city folk to island folk was complete. Pam and I had made the old stone cottage our home; an old wire-fenced tennis court had been converted into an allotment, we had a dozen chickens and a black dog. The kitchen windowsill in the cottage had a row of demijohns brewing wine and beer and, on frosty winter mornings, Tony and I would fish for dabs and plaice with long lines. By year's end, Pam found a seam of clay on the western end of the island and started
making pots.
In 1963 the islands were sparsely populated. On Brownsea there was only one couple; they had looked after Mrs Bonham-Christie, the owner. She had died in 1961 and the National Trust took that island under its auspices. Guy Sydenham, the potter, lived on a converted World War 2 motor torpedo boat on Long Island, while another couple lived on Round Island and looked after it for the absent owner.
Although Furzey Island is only a mile from Poole Quay it always seemed much further. We would go ashore for one day every week to buy whatever we could not produce ourselves. As soon as we let go the ropes from the quay, and chugged out across the harbour on the way to our island home, all the troubles of the mainland were left behind. Island life had a lot to recommend it: we had no rent, no rates, no fuel bills and no travelling expenses. Although we had an isolated way of life, we never felt cut off. In 1963 there was still a postal service to the islands; there had to be gale-force winds in order to stop Harry Reeves, our intrepid postie, from delivering our mail, not to mention the daily bread and milk. Sandy Wills, who did harbour trips in his boat White Heather, would often drop off the daily papers and, in the winter time, many of the fishermen and wild-fowlers would come ashore for a cup of tea.
Furzey Island is a very different place today. Years after we left and the Illiffe family had sold it, oil was discovered beneath it and BP developed it into the most productive onshore oil well in mainland Britain. The National Trust-run Brownsea Island receives thousands of visitors every year; Green Island is owned by one of Lady Illiffe's sons and Round Island now has holiday lets on it.
Almost everyone, at some stage in his or her life, dreams of getting away from the rat race and living on an island. We are lucky enough to have done it, and will always look back on our time as Furzey islanders with great fondness.
The ownership of Furzey Island
At present the 31 acres of Furzey Island are in the hands of Perenco UK, after 27 years under the safe guardianship of BP, whose well-screened wells, occupying only five of its acres, are engaged in a short-term commercial use, tapping into the oil resources that underlie the whole of the harbour and beyond, while the remainder is maintained as a nature reserve.
BP had acquired the island in 1984 from Algy Cluff, a former proprietor of the Spectator magazine. His companies had revived gold mining in Zimbabwe and in the 1970s they set out to recover oil from the North Sea.
In 1980 Algy acquired the island, apparently ignorant of the underlying resource; he intended the simple stone house, built in 1936 for a former owner, the Dowager Lady Illiffe, to be his seventh home.
In making the purchase from a Midlands businessman, Mr Hilton Newton-Mason, who had paid £35,000 for the island in 1969 and kept two wallabies named Fred and Batty on it, Algy Cluff bested a Liverpool lad – a local wine dealer – who had harboured plans to buy it as a 'boozers' oasis'. Little did he know that in the first century BC, Furzey's inhabitants had been trading wine with the Romans – then in Hamworthy. Or that boisterous passengers returning from Poole Market to Wych on the ferry in 1759 had capsized the vessel and, of nineteen passengers, only six had survived by struggling through mud to safety on the island.
On a more sober note, BP won The Queen's Award for Environmental Achievement in 1995 in acknowledgement of the innovative, technologically challenging and environmentally beneficial manner in which Furzey Island had been developed.

I applied for a position with the Richmond Police Department. I am trying to decide if I will apply again with the same or another department. They always say no drug use in the past 12 months. I experimented when I was under 18 over 27 years ago. Not sure if I am required to answer questions about anything when I was a minor but the examiner always ask.

We have a lovely and spacious 3 bedroom, character filled older-style apartment, in the beautiful neighbourhood of Elwood. The house is fully furnished with mostly modern furniture and decor styling, with hints of vintage wares. With white walls and wooden parquetry flooring throughout, the windows in main areas are all floor to ceiling, so we're blessed with plenty of sunlight throughout the day. The lounge room is very spacious - with morning sunlight steaming in - leading out to a balcony (that we love to have breakfast on) that faces the (neighbourhood traffic only) street - and is also very comfy with an 80cm TV.
The kitchen is fairly large, with large dining table, cooking/kitchen appliances, plenty of cupboard space, and two lovely leafy window outlooks. The bathroom is shared with a bath, separate shower and laundry area (including washing machine). Toilet is separate to bathroom, both have good ventilation, and both have cool retro mosaic floor tiling. There is a great central gas heater, so it never gets cold.
Off-street car parking is readily available if you have a car, otherwise trains, trams and buses are just 1 block away.
We are close to St Kilda Botanic Gardens, Carlisle and Acland Streets, and St Kilda Rd. And just a 12min walk to Elwood's Ormond Rd.
We take pride in making the apartment our home - and love to keep the space mess/clutter free, and cleanliness of a high standard :)
My name is Naomi, I'm a 31yo single mother and business owner - I work from home designing for and running a fashion accessories brand. My daughter is a beautiful and cheeky 2yo, who is very adventurous, with a curious mind and a gentle loving soul. She is very easy to live with, loves music and being creative, and is very good with 'helping mum around the house'.
We are pretty health conscious, we cook predominantly vegetarian meals and eat all organically. But this is not a rule for the household, you are free to cook/eat as you wish :)
We revolve around the house quite a bit, however we do like to go to the park/go on walks or other activities everyday, and weekends we're usually out visiting friends and fam.
I'm not a party animal anymore (for obvious reasons haha) but I do love to be social and have friends over occasionally, and enjoy a wine at home every now and then also.
We are ideally looking for a female to join our home, and treat it like their own - someone who is clean, respectful and considerate within the house, can tolerate kids, and loves a bit of social time at home also.
You would possibly be a professional working M-F.
We love enjoying our own personal space/time, and I'm not the kind of person who demands to know where/what you're doing at all times...I'm very relaxed and easy-going, and I love my home to be a 'sanctuary' from the outside world, so it would be great to find someone with great vibes and sharing that same sentiment.

Missing Laurel Hills' wooden castle playground? Check Apex's Kelly Road Park
Posted October 26, 2016
Sassafras All Children's Playground is opening in just about a week at Laurel Hills Park in north Raleigh.
This is a massive playground - the city's largest. What's more, the playground is designed for kids of all abilities. So children in wheelchairs or with other mobility issues, who can't normally navigate across mulch or traditional playground pieces, can have just as much fun as other children.
While lots of parents are very excited about all of these developments (judging from the reaction to the Facebook and Go Ask Mom posts I've been writing about this), others are mourning the loss of the original All Children's Playground at Laurel Hills.
That playground, built in the 1990s and demolished last fall, was like no other in Raleigh. The large, castle-like wooden structure had all sorts of corridors and hiding places. Kids and parents loved it. My older daughter, especially, spent a lot of time scampering across the big tires and through the narrow hallways. I miss it too!
That playground, however, had been damaged by fire several years ago. It also didn't meet safety codes. And it wasn't living up to its original intent - which was to be a place, like Sassafras, where kids of all abilities can play. Over the past couple of decades, research on playgrounds and disabilities have allowed park designers to build better playgrounds.
Sassafras will include pieces such as a wheelchair accessible teeter totter and a zip line with a harness-like seat for children who need upper body support. It will make a big difference in the lives of a lot of children who, until now, had few public places to play. A grand opening celebration is scheduled at the park on Edwards Mill Road on Nov. 5.
But, never fear. If you are among those missing the old castle-like structure, there's another in Wake County that's a lot like the old playground.
Kelly Road Park in Apex, built in 1999, was actually designed by the same company that built the original All Children's playground.
Like All Children's, Kelly Road is a wooden, castle-like structure with lots of corridors and staircases to explore. I wrote about the park six years ago.
It's been a year since I've visited the park, but Angela Reincke, Apex parks planner, tells me there have been no major structural changes to the playground in the last year - just routine maintenance.
In fact, this fall, the company that designed the playground will come out to assess its condition and help the town figure out how to continue to maintain the structure so kids across Apex and the region have a wooden castle-like structure to play in.
The park is at 1609 Kelly Rd. in Apex not far from Olive Chapel Elementary School.

AbstractMany future advances in NASAys ability to perform cutting edge space science will require improvements in cryogenic system technology, including the development of light-weight, low vibration, highly-efficient, long-life cryocoolers. One such cooler, currently under development, is the pulse-tube/reverse-Brayton (PT/RB) hybrid cooler. Of critical importance to success of the PT/RB is the development of the small-scale turbine required for the reverse-Brayton stage. We propose to build such a turbine for inclusion in a brassboard PT/RB soon to be constructed under a separate contract. The turbine will incorporate pressurized bearings that generate a supporting force by applying a high-pressure source of gas to a flow restriction that exhausts into the bearing clearance and onto the turbine shaft surface. Pressurized bearings provide support even in the absence of shaft rotation and therefore eliminate rubbing contact and increase the life and reliability of the bearing. Also, because pressurized bearings do not directly depend on viscous action for operation, relatively larger clearances can be used without significantly sacrificing rotordynamic performance at low temperatures, thus making them cost effective.

St. Vitus' Abbey on the Rott (Kloster Sankt Veit an der Rott) was a Benedictine monastery in the municipality of Neumarkt-Sankt Veit in the district of Mühldorf in Bavaria, Germany.
It was founded in 1121 by the nobleman Dietmar of Lungau, and dissolved during the secularisation of Bavaria in 1802.
The premises were given at first to the Damenstift of St. Anna in Munich, but in 1829 came into the possession of the Saxon Baron Maximilian von Speck-Sternburg and then in 1858 were sold to Count Maximilian von Montgelas.
Formerly in the diocese of Salzburg, the abbey was a member of the Benedictine Salzburg Congregation from 1641 until its dissolution.

Ladies, does a guy earning 90,000 dollars have a better chance of getting you to fall in love with him, than a guy who works at Burger King? I've been quite unsuccessful in the dating world, and I was wondering if it was because I'm not a tycoon. I see people that are well-off, but not physically attractive marry supermodel-type women.
I consider myself to be as good-looking as anyone else out there, yet nobody will date me.
Most Helpful Girl
As unfortunate as it is, money is a huge factor in how attractive men are to women, there are psychology studies to prove it. The theory is that back when early humans were still in the hunter/gatherer times, the ultimate goal for humans was (and still is) to successfully pass their genes down to the next generation. To accomplish this, they needed resources and health. So, men who were able to acquire resources (through intelligence and/or physical fitness) were sexually selected for, because everyone is looking to raise their chances successful reproduction. This can be seen today, as women are attracted to men who make money, and/or are athletic.
The same way, men are more focused on physical appearance, because a lot of the traits that are considered universally attractive for women signify fertility.
What this means for you is that as unfair as it is, financial status does impact a woman's sexual interest in a man.
I don't know you or anything about your situation, but any man would find more success dating by pursuing a more prestigious occupation, dressing well, and taking generally good care of himself. I've read some of your recent answers, and you sound quite well-spoken and intelligent. If nothing else, don't be afraid to make sure that comes through when you interact with women.
I hope this helped, and good luck!!21|10|0
So does that mean that women don't decide weather or not they like a guy until they can guess or gauge how much he earns? (by the clothes he wears, and the car he drives I suppose) Wow. It sounds like men today are at a disadvantage. Men need women for love. Though women are born with everything they need to find the guy of their dreams, there remains a chance that a guy may never find what he's looking for, because his money, or lack of money gets in the way. So it doesn't matter if I'm a good man. It doesn't really matter if I love the girl more than life itself. It doesn't matter that if the two of us were on a sinking ship where only one of us will survive, I would stay on the ship to allow her to get to safety. If I'm broke, women will never bother to care to find that out. If it wouldn't be such an act of perdition, I would put this pistol in my mouth and pull the trigger. There's no such thing as love anymore.
That's not what I'm saying. Women can definitely be attracted to/ fall in love with a man w/o money, money is just a FACTOR in attraction. Just as say, a nice smile. It helps to have it, but it won't make or break whether someone wants to date you. Many women just want to feel cared for, and you don't need to be a CEO to provide that. Money does factor into the ability to care for someone, but it's not everything; there's an emotional component to it as well, which you mentioned that you have. I've dated two guys who didn't have a lot of money, but I still really liked them, and they both were highly desired by women. They were caring in other ways, and they had ambition. What I'm saying is that money helps, but it doesn't make or break a woman's interest. Women also don't decide whether we like a guy, we develop feelings just as men do, and financial status is certainly not a screening for potential partners.

this is the value of your facebook or Google or hotmail account on the Russian underground
The hacking of Facebook logins has halved the price of the working logins by halve.
and your login is of much bigger value than your creditcard where creditcards are now sold in packs of thousands or millions at 1 dollar a piece for the US market
there is much more you can do with a facebook account because you can resell the access
now phishers in France use electricity company EDF to get very valuable documents from users for ID theft
"At the end of January last year, French power company EDF advised the public that they were seeing a significant rise in the number of phishing complaints they were receiving from their customers. An example story in English from The Connexion: EDF customers hit in 'phishing' scam, says that an EDF spokesperson said beginning in August of 2012 they were seeing 20,000 customers per month complaining about the phish and that in January 2013 it had risen to as many as 40,000 customers per month. As many as 200 to 300 new phishing sites per month were being created at that time.
This week Malcovery is noticing that the EDF phish are back, with a twist! The current EDF phish are asking for documents with an enormous value for identity theft and are targeting many different French banks with the information. Here's what a currently live phishing site looks like:
This is the same reason why you can't throw such documents as such in the dustbin.
network of Australian parlement penetrated by Chinese cyberspies during one year
"SYDNEY (Reuters) - A cyber attack on the Australian parliamentary computer network in 2011 may have given Chinese intelligence agencies access to lawmakers' private emails for an entire year, the Australian Financial Review reported on Monday.
The newspaper, citing government and security sources, said new information showed the attack had been more extensive than previously thought and "effectively gave them control of" the entire system.
"It was like an open-cut mine. They had access to everything," a source told the newspaper.
They are now declaring that they are making a priority of cybersecurity. Sure ....
Firefox will control much more strict the way you have set up your ssl certificate
"Many of the certificate verification changes in the new library are subtle and are related to technical requirements specified in the "Baseline Requirements for the Issuance and Management of Publicly-Trusted Certificates" issued by the Certification Authority/Browser (CAB) Forum. However, some of the behavior modifications also stem from changes Mozilla made to its own policy for trusting CA certificates.
For example, a document describing mozilla::pkix requirements notes that "end certificates used by servers are not allowed to have basic constraints asserting isCA=TRUE" and "certificates used as trust anchors or intermediates are now required to have the basic constraints extension and assert the isCA bit."
These two requirements are intended to prevent the misuse of subordinate CA (sub-CA) or intermediate certificates, which can be used to issue SSL certificates for any domain on the Internet.
The first result will be that the users will have to add many certificates to their exceptions because most of the certificates today don't respect a very strict set of rules - if any
You have untill the end of july to adapt your certficates so that they are compatible with the minimum requirements from Firefox which counts for at least 30% of all the browsers
double authentification process by mobile can now be replaced by a trojan
"iBanking is a malicious Android application that when installed on a mobile phone is able to spy on its user's communications. This bot has many interesting phone-specific capabilities, including capturing incoming and outgoing SMS messages, redirecting incoming voice calls, and even capturing audio using the device's microphone. As reported by independent researcher Kafeine, this mobile application was for sale in underground forums and was used by several banking Trojans in an attempt to bypass a mobile two-factor authentication method put forth by some financial institutions. This method, usually called "mobile transaction authorization number" (mTAN) or mToken in the financial realm, is used by several banks throughout the world to authorize banking operations, but is now also increasingly used by popular internet services such as Gmail, Facebook and Twitter.
The malware makes in fact the double authentification by SMS unreliable for the simple reason that people by a social engineering trick have already given the malware all the necessary permissions to take over the identification process while starting a connection with mobile banking
In Belgium online banking is heavily promoted by the banks and it is called safe even if - for example - there is no CERT responsable for the wireless network
any wireless sensor data without encryption and with standard passwords can be hacked
"By sniffing 802.15.4 wireless traffic on channels used by Sensys Networks devices," Cerrudo wrote in an advisory (.pdf) he sent to the Department of Homeland Security's ICS-CERT division last year, "it was found that all communication is performed in clear text without any encryption nor security mechanism. Sensor identification information (sensorid), commands, etc. could be observed being transmitted in clear text. Because of this, wireless communications to and from devices can be monitored and initiated by attackers, allowing them to send arbitrary commands, data and manipulating the devices."
In this interesting article it is about the traffic lights but that counts for any sensor that is working under these premises.
#ukraine the most important thing I have learned about the hype of social media and its dangers
We already have seen it with the green revolution in Iran a couple of years about after which the term clicktavists was born and we were all tweeting and blogging about the opposition movement while on the ground the manifestations were just attacked by paramilitary and tens of thousands of people were arrested and convicted. The social media helped to get the information out and probably got the movement going for a while but in the end it didn't make any difference because the regime was stronger on the streets and the protestors weren't sure about the strategy and didn't have enough people to be able to continue and resist the permanent brutal attacks.
The second revolution was in Egypt where the media made a huge fuzz about the role of social media and the fact that one of the guys had some function with facebook and that the Egyptians used facebook and twitter to organize the protests and distribute information in real time. All nice and well and very interesting. But it was not that that made the difference. The day Moubarak send in his thugs (on camels) there were fights going on through the night with the army standing aside. Hundreds were wounded many were killed, but in the morning the army decided that it was enough and intervened on the side of the protestors and drove the attackers away. This had nothing to do with social media. It had to do with the number of people on the ground willing to be hurt or die while throwing stones to keep the attackers away from place Tahir.
The Turkish protests proof the same thing. They just didn't have the people to counterbalance the attack by the police forces (with better equipment than the Ukr now) and to continue the demonstrations night after night to create the atmosphere of revolution, unrest and uneasy that would have forced the government to take some actions to calm down the situation.
Euromaiden proofs again that everything that is really important is happening on the ground. THe number of people willing to be hurt or die and the number of people helping them getting the things organized so they don't have to. After the snipers shot so many people it was clear that the protestors would continue to advance and that short of bringing in machine guns on tanks there was little the regime could do to stop them. (which is different from now where in Eastern Ukraine the regime has the necessary forces but can't use them or can't trust them and doesn't have the international support to deal with it)
Now there is one big and important thing to learn - and I have the impression that even if the Euromaidan people have read the analysis they don't yet understand it and so they aren't capable of influencing the real news. Maybe it all has to do with their age, with their enthusiasm to play reporter without ever being accepted as one by real reporters, with their need to be immediately in the stream of developments following them every minute as a film.
The real news I have learned is NOT in the social media. It is in the newspapers on the international press agencies and on TV. THat is the real news and that is where the real influence is. Yeah they will read some blogs and some tweets but for most of their content they will depend on the big agencies and their reporters on the ground (who sometimes don't even want to follow the social media or don't know which ones to follow)
And it is not about the news an sich it is about the framework, the news-setting that Moscow is trying to create and that is being copied without any research, analysis or re-action by the big press agencies, by the (even socalled quality media) media (even in socalled liberal Russian press the military in Eastern Ukr were called militants). You change words, you set up events, you create impressions and you leave out others. All this is done deliberately and some of the propaganda is very subtle while the other is so stupid that a normal person would see through it (but maybe it is not intended for a normal person)
So as long as you don't have a real press official press office that gives international tv stations video with translations in any important language, in which a high official on the record responds immediately to new allegations or declarations elsewhere, as long as you don't have permanent press officer who try to correct the names that are sometimes used for these terrorist and alert the journalists (of which you know what he thinks and what he doesn't know (yet)) to specific bits of information and contacts so he can verify the information or dig a bit deeper into it.
Playing on twitter and facebook is fun, but mediawar is much more professional than just that. And you won't beat specialised mediastrategists with a tweet or a facebook. Oh you may impact a few thousand people for some time but not necessarily the millions who are watching tv news and reading their newspapers. The fact that the opinion polls about Ukraine internationally aren't that bad doesn't mean that you have to do nothing. On the contrary it means that if you would have a real mediawarstrategy you could do even much better and having a real impact on the democracies that have soon to decide to implement real sanctions that will also hurt them, remilitarize their eastern borders with Russia and should their 'reference' again so they would see Russia as an unreliable, militaristic, imperialistic, undiplomatic havebeen superpower that is only dreaming that it could havebeen the new USSR
This is one for the long haul and for countries who are preparing themselves for the new cold war and are looking anxiously to the propaganda war coming out of Putinized Moscow they should invest in the means to fight a very lowlevel warfare immediately, have socialmedia monitoring and actions but they must surely not overinvest in it and put most of the mediawar money in the international mediawarstrategy.
Social media is when you are organizing protests and trying to foster a strategy, mediawarstrategy is when you have won and you are playing with the big media around the world against the mediapuppetmasters of the new Goebels.
This was for me an eye-opener. Socialmedia is less important than bricks and guns on the street and can't correct fast the international bigmediastrategy of a professional propagandateam. It helps but it doesn't change a thing. It must be there but as a support on the ground and for a professional propagandateam. Otherwise you are fighting in the media like you are now fighting on the ground in Eastern Ukraine.
btw I have re-opened some books about propaganda and informationwar
#ukraine taking a break from Ukraine
As in other stories where we followed the beginning and first developments we stop and go back to our normal work once the situation has become clear.
It is clear that there will be no invasion soon although the situation will continue to worsen. We will come back if this happens.
It is clear the present government in Kiev doesn't have the will, the power and the knowledge to force a military or police re-action to this low form of warfare.
It is clear that we are getting into a cold war 2.0 although germany and especially the german socialists aren't ready to give up on Putin and don't understand what he is doing and why he is dangerous as the debate yesterday among the contenders for the President of the European Commission showed (although you could hardly call it a debate, but it was a first time and you still have to learn)
It is clear that we now will have to see anything Russian or done by satellites of Russia through other eyes and not more as new friends who were once enemies. The mix of extreme right and left in the third way or the complex propaganda mix supporting Putin and his Russian kind of corporatism (inspired by the Solidarism of the 1930's) changes (or refreshes) puts a new factor on the extremist political field.
It is clear that NATO is back, that we will have a remilitarisation of Europe, that this low-level warfare is the modern way of overthrowing regimes (a military variant of the colored revolutions who didn't take arms and used paramilitary)
It is clear that a big majority even in Eastern Ukraine doesn't want to be annexed to Russia or become independent but for the moment aren't capable of organizing any protest with the means to resist violent attacks by armed thugs.
Sometimes I even think that an invasion would be good for Ukraine. It would liberate the army to storm the occupied buildings as military centers. It would make it very clear where all this shit is coming from. It would force the Chamberlains in Europe to understand that nobody was joking when the Putin said that he wanted to restore the Old USSR
So as we know understood what is happening why we will go back to our research and reporting about all the other things in the security world
The last couple of weeks we have informed you about the strategic concepts that have changed, the methods that were used, the players and how things were being set up
the resources to continue to follow are
twitter.com/mailforlen list Ukraine
diigo.com/mailforlen list international
and if you want to see what has been published than you search for #ukraine in the searchform here
and if something very interesting happens than I will be back on the subject here
I am with the Ukrainans but as long as the Europeans, the NATO or the US or eastern allies don't effectively get it and get them the help they practically need, than I don't know how they are going to win this low-level warfare even if there are some military, SBU and police forces doing excellent work
#ukraine the call in the US becomes louder for more leadership in this crisis
this doesn't mean that they want to send immediately troops and go to war with Russia over this, but it means that Obama will have to take a harder stand and do more to make it clear that the US stands with the democrats in Ukr and want to give Ukr the necessary protection so it can hold its election and construct its new democracy again
"What's to stop Putin? The West is led by the modern equivalents of Chamberlain: President François Hollande of France is a political nonentity repudiated by his own compatriots; Prime Minister David Cameron of Britain and Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany have both ruled out the use of force to stop Putin from annexing Ukraine; and worst of all, President Barack Obama–the one man who has the power to stop Putin in his tracks–does nothing. He makes Neville Chamberlain seem like a bellicose activist.
The U.S. is the richest country in the world. Thanks to the fracking revolution, it has the means to meet the energy needs of all the former Soviet states. Its fleets and armies make Russia's much reduced military power seem puny. It could move troops and aircraft into Ukraine within 24 hours, and its fleets could ensure protection to the Baltic states in a way that Putin would find unanswerable. Yet Obama makes no decisive moves. What ails the man? Is it cowardice? Indecision? A kind of executive paralysis he tends to display when firmness is called for? Clearly there's something fundamentally wrong with the U.S. President. Meanwhile, Putin, who runs what is, in essence, a second-rate nation with a weak and declining demographic structure, behaves as if he rules the Earth.
Sadly, there is no Churchillian voice to sound the alarm and call the democratic world to action"
#ukraine Putin failed again this weekend and what is ahead
imagine the troops were there, they were battle ready and the hospitals crews were alerted that they maybe would have much work to do
so it was waiting on the provocations and actions that should have been the argument to go in
* shooting a major of a major city by an unknown person could be a trigger but it wasn't as he clearly had switched sites and it couldn't have been put in the hands of the Rightsector (except on Russian tv off course). The fact that he is a jew makes it even more difficult with all the antisemitism in the Prorussian camp
* the explosion of an Afghanlike roadbomb against an Ukr police-officer was another incident to provoke something (but the link to the Prorussians is fast made because many of their military say they have fought in Afghanistan)
* the attack of a mob on a peaceful proUkr manifestation with a policeforce who did have no clear strategy, no command, no material and could hardly contain the small groups of prorussians attacking people on the ground (NEVER FALL ON THE GROUND AND IF ON THE GROUND MAKE YOURSELF SMALL AND DEFEND YOUR HEAD BUT GET UP)
* the take-over of a small city (but at the big road to Crimea) didn't provoke the anti-terrorist brigade sending their tanks (nobody knows if they are sending anything anywhere for the moment)
but in the end of the day, we can write and think whatever we think about the images and dramatics of the visuals, but military and strategically what did it bring Putin
absolutely nothing
it is clear that external police forces have to come in to protect the international monitors
it is clear that around 40 people have to be liberated by the Russian occupiers
it is clear that the prorussians are attacking proUkr demonstrators without reason (and laying on the ground)
it is clear that they didn't evacuate anything
so even if the sanctions weren't as harsh as wished by some, they are one step ahead and seeing the political pressure mounting in the US congress there will be more sanctions coming and maybe that was even the goal of Obama, not to proclaim himself harsh sanctions but to do so with the explicit political support of the full congress, telling his European partners that he has no choice because American public opinion is moving into this (right) decision
off course it looks all different in you are living in Ukraine and it looks much more desperate and chaotic but you have to keep some perspective
* there are no snipers and militea fighting all over the place with refugees going into their thousands to the borders
* there are no cities that are totally controlled by the russians openly supported by thousands and thousands of citizens (a few that are presented as such)
* the russian troops are back to their barracks which by the way are still to close for comfort to the Ukr border but this is not the same as being nearly on the border itself
These are the days we have to look out for
First of may : big parade - but it will be difficult to invade before because you need at least 48 to 72hours even with all the overwhelming manpower to be able to present itself and also Ukr and Russia have a meeting the day after about the dispute over the gas price (you don't invade a country the day before you will try to do business with them)
9th of may : big parade
11th of may : so called referendum that the seperatists would like to organize
12th of may : the reaction of the Duma and Putin to this referendum if it takes place
25th of may : presidential election
what to expect, I don't know and if anybody knows he may say so because this is so fluid that anything can happen at any moment at any place - and it is this what makes it so dangerous that we are living in the most dangerous times since the second world war and everybody is being careful although not everybody is doing what should be done (stopping the occupation of buildings for example) they are too afraid of this situation totally out of control to take the dramatic steps like an invasion
it is not for our pleasure or yours that we - and others - declare that an invasion is possible - it is because all the preparations for an invasion are in place, the readiness level of the army is in place and than there are certain manifestations and provocations that could possible be the pretext for some kind of invasion
luckily for Ukraine these provocations didn't give until the effects that was counted upon (according to the textbooks - but that is why they are textbooks)
this doesn't mean that he continues to try
but time is running against Putin and he knows it all too well
if we pass the 25th of May without invasion or big scale massive rioting, deserting and killing than he has missed in fact the opportunity to invade even if he doesn't accept the elected president
but that will be his problem - not of the west
when this will be over, we will ask Ukraine how they lived through these emotions and events and how it was possible that the west was so passive and didn't seem to do anything in time. But if all goes well, we'll say that it was the only way possible and had a good result. If all goes bad than we will have to change tactics and we are instantly into coldwar2.0 for a long time.
and there is no way to know what is best and what would be dangerous and who in the Kremlin is for war whatever the cost and who is trying in a diplomatic way to keep backchannels over and keep the discussions going (Ukraine and Russia are meeting each other the second of May over the dispute about the gas price).
there are also question rising if Putin has not lost control over his mercenaries operating in Ukraine and if they are not becoming rather a liability than an asset. There is no enormous outpouring of popular support (except pensioners and hooligans ready for a good bloody fight), the popularity of an annexation to Russia in the polls are going the wrong way and taking international monitors as hostages or even killing hostages is something that you can't sell as a reason to invade a country, on the contrary
if his mercenaries continue like that he will even not be able to intervene when the European special forces decide to implement the Geneva agreement themselves and come in for an 'antiterrorist operation' to liberate the international hostages and the 40 others, liberate the public buildings and disarm the militias before this really gets out of hand
and as the troops facing them won't be the Ukr untrained underequipped soldiers with an interdiction to shoot, I wouldn't be surprised if they would keep their salaries paid and just leave before they get hurt, especially if Putin only protests a little .....
#ukraine this is why the occupation of some cities in Ukr is the preparation of an invasion
look at the roads he needs to go to Crimea - to bring food and other stuff
look at the names of the cities
#ukraine the slow military buildup in the air at the eastern front
let's use Putins language and take it on like it is and stop all these niceties
drip, drop, drip, drop ..... and the bath is slowly filling because every step he makes (or doesn't) leads to some more drip, drop, drip, drop and in a few months time - if Putin continues like that the eastern front will look like an eastern front and he will wish that he never started this madness
#ukraine Russian occupiers hold for the moment 40 people captive
and this is normal - for Russia it is
#ukraine lessons and material for the riotpolice of Ukraine
protecting marches (and having enough policement to do it) like in belfast
moving your police next to the protestors in the safe environment of police cars (belfast)
or behind the cars who move together as a protective wall
having one or more watercannons to keep people from coming too close
having rubber bullets if things really get too dangerous or to immobilize the most aggressive attackers
making air-gaps between police and demonstrators (for example before buildings)
give protective gear to the riotpolice so they aren't that easily hurt by incoming material
having with a camera a total overview over what is happing in the coordination center where the command can take all the necessary measures (re-inforcement, new orders to move in or pull back or whatever)
#ukraine the situation in South Ukr or East Ukr in one map
but even if it seems important - it is not as important as in reality because there is no massive bloodshed, there is no running streetwar - some incidents and fights but it is not that there are thousands of people fighting each other in the street or killing each other
one good organized anti terrorism operation could blow this all over in one day - that they don't is because if they do they are so afraid of Putin that he doesn't even have to invade the country to have it act as if they are invaded
#ukraine first law of fear : beat every manifestation into chaos and bloodshed
the same technique as during the 1930's with the nazi's
and the police - they didn't intervene or they were helping the nazi's
and the more trouble on the street, the better because than afterwards he would say that he came to restore order
so either way, you win
so let's see if next time they have a few thousand protestors and if they don't if they have some fighters so you could could have a nice riot and than present it as civil war (even if you have started it)
and this is the monty python police (totally useless) the guy who is responsable for organizing his police force here can go back to the kindergarten and even than I wouldn't give the security of my children or anybody's children in his hands
#ukraine now a whole lot of the alternative news internet becomes stupid
take for example infowars.com
"violence escalated today as the mayor of the eastern Ukrainian city of Kharkov, Gennady Kernes, was shot in the back by unidentified gunmen and remains in a critical condition.
On Sunday, 300 anti-government protesters were attacked by a 5,000 strong mob of pro-Kiev football hooligans in Kharkov who severely beat numerous demonstrators, leaving 14 injured.
look at the links
where do they get their information from
'Russia Today' of course
now that we have seen what is the worth of the reporting by Russia Today especially about Ukraine (in which they are only informationofficers not journalists) and also about Western Europe and the US (in which everything goes bad) and about Russia (in which all is well compared to the bad west)
an unencrypted external harddisk wht all personel data is lost by.... a privacycommission
In Canada
"The federal privacy commissioner will receive on Friday the findings of an internal investigation into an embarrassing loss of sensitive information of approximately 800 current and former federal employees.
The data breach at the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada is believed to have happened in February, after employees lost an unencrypted hard drive containing the private information of past and current employees, while moving their headquarters to Gatineau, Que. from Ottawa.
The lost information dates back to 2002 and includes employee names, salaries, internal ID numbers, other payment information and job classifications for both current and former employees in the Office of the Privacy Commissioner and the Office of the Information Commissioner.
#ukraine Anonymous is in Ukraine only a megaphone for Russia Today
there was a splintergroup that attacked some Russian targets and leaked some data (but not all of it)
there was also a prorussian info-op calling themselves Anonymous Ukraine without any protestations from Anonymous Headquarters and leaking socalled intercepted telephone conversations and emails of diplomatic and other decisionmakers and re-arranged them only to try to present it in the best possible propaganda way as it is all a conspiracy of the CIA against their good Russian friends
so no Anonymous is in this conflict not taking the sides of those who fight for freedom and justice and transparancy but is mostly just repeating the propaganda from Russia today and presenting the thugs and armed green men as antigovernment protestors, militants and so on
their anti americanism has blinded their general principles of freedom of speech, of the press and of organisation which you even under the worst cases have a 1000 times more in the US than in Russia or China.

This article describes each of the Human and Creature groups' loyalties and towards which other groups are they hostile or allied. In general, all of the groups are hostile towards Garrett, but a thief must know how to make his enemies fight one another in a subtle and cunning manner.
Humans overall have pretty plain lines of allegiance, usually separating themselves by class or religion.
Hammerites won't engage other humans except thieves and criminals, Garrett included. The exception of Garrett is at the conclusion of Thief: The Dark Project and on the streets of Thief: Deadly Shadows if Garrett sways favor (This is not carried over into Hammerite Missions; they will attack Garrett on sight).
They will engage anything non human, unnatural beast or undead, on sight. The Hammers have an exceptional hate towards Pagans. In Thief: Deadly Shadows, Hammerite Guards help the City Watch fighting enemies. If they encounter Pagans in the streets, combat will break out between them.
Virtually the same as their Hammerite cousins, as the have carried over the hate of Pagans, monsters, the undead and criminals.
Hammerites vs. MechanistsEdit
The two groups were certainly ideologically against each other, but it has not been confirmed if there was any violence between the two groups. Full scale conflict never came to fruition due to the weakness of the Hammerite order after the death of The Trickster.
Guards & City WatchEdit
Guards and City Watch Officers are generally peaceful towards the average human, but will attack hostile creatures, non-human entities and undead (except Lauryl's Spirit) on sight. They both will attack criminals if observed as intruders (guards and watchmen will always attack thieves in the first two games, but are rarely in contact in the original missions, with the exception of Davison's crew in Shipping... and Receiving). City Watch are always hostile to Garrett. The guards are as long as Garrett is intruding. The only time guards are neutral are the guards outside Bafford's Manor, as long as Garrett obeys their commands to leave or is non hostile. Guards will still attack Garrett in the first two games even if he is seen outside their Lord/Lady's property. These occurrences are few, however. In Deadly Shadows, non-City Watch guards who spot Garrett on the street will not bother Garrett, unless he commits any criminal activity.
The City Watch was ordered to kill Pagans on sight in Thief II: The Metal Age, but by the time of Deadly Shadows, they just consider their presence to be a nuisance.
Guard and watchmen rarely attack each other, though there have been instances, such as the Life of the Party battle between Mister Willy's and Lord Van Vernon's guards.
Pagans won't generally engage humans, except on certain conditions and when on their own territory. The only exceptions make the Hammerites who are enemies with the Pagans. All creatures allied or summoned by Pagans including Chaos Beasts won't attack the Pagans themselves, but will attack any other human or creature not a part of the Pagan culture. During the rise of the Mechanists, them and The City Watch were openly hostile to the Pagans. However, with the fall of Karras and the lax attitude The Watch has with The Pagans, has allowed them to further their influence in The City.
Garrett joins with Viktoria against Karras and the Mechanists in Thief II, however he has to gain their trust in Deadly Shadows.
They combat the Kurshok for control over The Kurshok Crown.
Rich or poor, unarmed peoples will always run to the nearest uniform with a weapon. They will react negatively to monsters, creatures, intruders and other things they deem a threat to their safety. Otherwise they are neutral to other persons and groups. Allegiances vary from person to person, as some are devout followers of the Hammerites, some may be secret pagans, and some do not mind being around criminals.
Creatures and beasts are more chaotic, usually allied with their own species, or in the case of Chaos allies, whomever The Trickster dictates.
Chaos BeastEdit
Chaos Beasts will not attack another creation or ally of the Maw, but will attack anything else. The only exceptions are the Pagans who are allied with the Chaos Beasts.
Elementals will attack any non-elemental entity. The only exception goes for magically summoned elementals which won't fight their creator, or his allies. Fire Elementals may be seen allied with Chaos Beasts.
Air elementals are only seen when casted by Mages. They are short lived and attack anything that is not allied to The Mages.
The Kurshok will attack any intruders, especially Pagans, due to their attempts to retake the Kurshok Crown. Gravid, the imprisoned Kurshok will be pursued by Guards, Watchmen, and Hammers if seen escaping his cell.
The Undead will attack anything alive, sentient or not. Though they are not seen acknowledging each other, they have the known tendency to amass and help one another more than the other groups.
Wild BeastsEdit
Animals will attack anything not from their own packs or types. In certain missions Wild Beasts can become allied with Chaos Beasts.

A staple that's dominated ethnic style since the Mughal era: the anarkali. It's also a B-town perennial fave, irrespective of season. The best bit about this ethnic style? You can twist it around to blend with your personal style. So, simple, extravagant or something in between, your perfect anarkali is out there. And it gets even better. The anarkali is one style that suits every single body type. Yup, you read that right!
So let's dive right into some major anarkali style inspo courtesy Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Katrina Kaif, Raveena Tandon and Manish Koirala...
Manisha Koirala
Hey sunshine girl! We'd be lying if we said Manisha's cheery anarkali hasn't perked up our day. The statement hue takes centerstage with a glitzy clutch and gold earrings finishing up the look. Sweet!
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan
Not that the world's most beautiful woman needs any help in the looking good department but this floral floor-length number is surely adding to Aishwarya's unattainable charm.
Raveena Tandon
Raveena's dull gold ensemble is dripping glamour and we're gladly lapping it up! The sequined and lace overlay anarkali is truly one of a kind and we're loving the addition of a beautiful dupatta. A statement neckpiece is all Raveena needs to top it off.
Kareena Kapoor Khan
We could write a book chronicling the highs and highs of Kareena's maternity style. And this easy breezy white anarkali would definitely top the charts. Bebo shows us the simple way you can don an anarkali in everyday life. We love!
Katrina Kaif
This one's for all you girls who like to keep it fuss-free and elegant. The luxe velvet adorned with silver and golden embellishments is perfection. Katrina rounds it up with some polki jewels for a polished end result.

My race is white and my ethnicity is Russian. There's a difference.
I am mixed with American Native, French and German. I don't understand your question. My culture is American.
Afro-Native I guess
Latina not Hispanic
Well the way you see it is wrong. Hispanic is not an actual ethnicity.
It's a blanket term created by the U. S. Government.
Latino/a refer to peoples from anywhere within Latin America, or the parts of North, Central & South America that speak Romance languages, which are themselves derived from Latin.
You can google this if you don't want to believe a stranger.
Just tryin to educate you.
white 100% :p Or maybe not 100% I have no idea where my ancestry line goes. I know my dads side comes from the north, norway , and my moms side from spain.
Mostly black, white and some Native American Indian. Some people can tell that I'm a bit of a mix and some can't unless they see both of my parents.
@prettygirly91 that's awesome I could tell you were a mix but didn't know what and didn't feel right asking but now I know ;-)
Lmao!!! If I didn't tell you what I was what would you have guessed? Obviously black but what else did you think at first? Lol!
Oh ok lol
My dad is black and my mom is white (her dad), Native American , and black (her mom)
I'm black, technically mixed because I am part Indian. 😐
Other/ middle-eastern
Black isn't an ethnicity... However African-Ameerican is.
White and an American mutt so who knows what ethnicity I have. :D
Romanian, Russian and Polish.
I'm Latina
Some of those are races and some are ethnicities.
For me:
@Gojira 😉 barely anybody does
I'm black and white. Not sure about my dads background, but my mom is Irish, German, Welsh, Scottish, and English .
My ethnicity is black, white, Indian, and, native American. Those are the only ones that I'm aware of.
Ethnicity: Surinamese.. so basically a mix
I'm italian and white
I am mixed

My ethnicity is Guyanese and I have a bit of Portuguese as well as a little bit of black in me. I am mixed race.
Oops I repeated myself lol

White and these are races not ethnic groups.
Those are races not ethnicity (s)
My race is White
My ethnicity (s) are
My ethnic groups is Czechoslovakian Gypsies as I am a gypsy and I come from a long line of Gypsies dating back to my great, great, great grandmother. And the only way to be a gypsy is through blood, meaning you must have that blood in you.
I voted Hispanic because about half of my blood is Puerto Rican and Cuban, but I'm actually mixed because I'm also Italian, Chinese, Spanish, and Hebrew.
In my country everyone says I'm white, the way you see races there in the US is kinda different though, I can't know for sure how to answer this question.
I voted A. I am a white New Zealander.
Vote 'F' cause my ethnicity is Indian (Brown) and race is Negroid (Dravidian)
I'm kinda like a white Irish-Mexican-Californian-American.
I'm me. :)
In Ireland nearly everyone is white

From field journeys to trainer development, MSI gives engaging science experiences for college students and educators—as a result of they each will determine the way forward for science. I've finally created enough classes that it was getting an excessive amount of for this one web page, so at the bottom you will find links to 4 other pages that function the opposite categories of Potato Chip Science Experiments. So right here, let me pull my daughter's science notebook down and flip by way of just a few representative pages so you will get a better thought of what a science notebook can appear like. The Science Council is a membership organisation for skilled our bodies and discovered societies throughout science, bringing together a range of disciplines and sectors to reflect the multi-disciplinary practice of science in immediately's society. Noetic science talks about the energy of human ideas affecting the true world.
When science and engineering are your ardour, you attempt to break down even the impractical and mystical things like love, attraction, and relationships into factual, sensible tidbits. I agree with you; there is no contradiction in science and religion; it is the misunderstanding of religion or science that creates it eitherway. It's not as inexpensive as among the other bodily science manuals on this web page, however considering that ALL the materials are supplied for you (besides a couple of common home goods, comparable to pot lids), it's well worth the little bit additional!
Science Fair Ideas Exchange provides dozens of ideas for projects and experiments. Science was nonetheless in his heart, so in 2004 he founded the human spaceflight startup Blue Origin. Yes science works and it reveals what's already there and it stops on the level just earlier than God and it makes up a bunch of theories and waits for some 'idea of all the pieces' to land in its lap. These Math Projects from okay-5mathteachingresources have worked well in my grade four/5 classroom this year. The Arizona Museum of Natural History houses a Columbian Mammoth skeleton with eight stone-tipped spear heads stuck in its bones.
Many social science disciplines – anthropology, city studies, social psychology, and possibly sociology – seem to have been captured by leftist ideology to a better diploma than econ was ever captured by libertarianism, even in the 70s and 80s. I wish to mention religious naturalism, which corresponds to this coming collectively of religion and science. Small Science didn't get their act collectively to sign up to get a table in time (word to self:don't be such a slacker!). I was a complete geeky science loving little one, and I admit I have not changed much as an adult. I encourage everybody studying this to analysis New Age beliefs and Spirit Science in the event you suppose I have been too harsh or too dismissive.

Buddhism in China and Japan Comparison Essay by Master Researcher
Buddhism in China and Japan
A comparison of the effects of the Buddhist religion in Japan and China.

This paper argues that the impact of Buddhism upon China was influenced by the fact that China was already an old civilization when Buddhism arrived, and that as a result Buddhism was forced to compete with existing religious/philosophical systems. The paper contrasts this to Japan where Buddhism had little local competition and quickly became a state religion. The paper therefore explains that Buddhism in China had to adapt to the competing belief systems in order to find converts, while in Japan, Buddhism was more influenced by the violent and militaristic Japanese society. The paper includes a draft of this essay.
Chinese Buddhism
Japanese Buddhism
Chinese Buddhism
Japanese Buddhism
From the Paper:"Buddhism in China became particularly popular among the "literati" of the aristocracy. As a result, there was a tendency toward "abstruse philosophical discussion" in the teaching of Buddhism. Moreover, Chinese tended to perceive Buddhism in terms they had become accustomed to by their own belief systems. For example, the Chinese adopted the Buddha as a demigod, mingling him with elements of the Yellow Emperor-Lao Tzu cult. As a result, such prominent features of Buddhism as meditation were totally transformed. Instead of meditation being defined in the Indian sense of concentration, it was viewed by Chinese Buddhists in the Taoist sense of conserving vital energies, breathing, and reducing desire.
"Given how radically Buddhism was transformed upon its introduction to China, one might expect a similar process of revision when Buddhism arrived in Japan. However, the translation of Buddhism did not result in such a radical revisioning largely because Buddhism was adopted as part of a "cultural revolution" during the sixth and seventh centuries C.E.. The Japanese government of the time promoted what amounted to a cultural transfusion from mainland China, with the Japanese adopting Chinese science, technology, writing, clothing, and customs. In much the same way as the Internet Explorer browser is "bundled" with the Microsoft operating system, Windows, Buddhism simply arrived as part of the larger Chinese cultural operating system."

The Innocents communion: possessed Martin Stephens, Christian Deborah Kerr Deborah Kerr Pt.3: Socially Dubious Desires Later on, in the television miniseries A Woman of Substance (1984) and its follow-up, the TV movie Follow the Dream (1986), Deborah Kerr played a former kitchen maid-turned-businesswoman who didn't reach the top by being all chaste and poised along the way. (Jenny Seagrove played the character as a young woman.) And once at the top, Kerr's tycoon does whatever she feels necessary to remain there. Admittedly, Deborah Kerr didn't create any of those characters all by herself. She did, however, bring them to life in ways that most performers, regardless of gender, would be either unwilling or unable to do. And even though Kerr once complained of her early "goody goody" roles, she surely knew what was going on inside those deceptively prim and proper women she played prior to From Here to Eternity. »
