Giant anacondas are dark green with black oval spots. They are roughly 30ft long. They prefer to hide in water along riverbanks and other shallow areas of water.
Giant anacondas prefer to ambush their prey, and quickly wrap them up to kill them. If the anaconda is in water, it will try to drag its prey underwater. Grappled prey pulled underwater is in danger of drowning.
Constrict (Ex): On a successful grapple check, a giant anaconda deals 2d4+13 points of damage.
Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, a giant anaconda must hit with its bite attack. It can then attempt to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity. If it wins the grapple check, it establishes a hold and can constrict.
Hold Breath (Ex): A giant anaconda can hold its breath for a number of rounds equal to 10x its Constitution score before it risks drowning. For a typical giant anaconda, this equals 170 rounds, or a little over 28 minutes.
Skills: Giant anacondas have a +4 racial bonus on Hide, Listen, and Spot checks and a +8 racial bonus on Balance and Climb checks. A giant anaconda can always choose to take 10 on a Climb check, even if rushed or threatened. Giant boas use either their Strength modifier or Dexterity modifier for Climb checks, whichever is higher. A giant anaconda has a +8 racial bonus on any Swim check to perform some special action or avoid a hazard. It can always choose to take 10 on a Swim check, even if distracted or endangered. It can use the run action while swimming, provided it swims in a straight line. *A giant anaconda receives an additional +12 racial bonus to hide checks when it is in water.

The Oregon Legislature announced the approval and release of $7.5 million toward the creation of the Oregon Manufacturing Innovation Center (OMIC), a co-located Research and Development (R&D) Center and Training Center in Columbia County.
The Oregon Legislature announced in May the approval and release of $7.5 million toward the creation of the Oregon Manufacturing Innovation Center (OMIC), a co-located research and development (R&D) center and training center in Columbia County. The business launch of the center is slated to begin in 2017.
OMIC will augment the region's metals, machinery and manufacturing industry and train the next advanced manufacturing workforce. It will also support the retention and expansion of existing companies through the capabilities of an R&D center and the skilled talent from a training center.
"OMIC builds on Oregon's long-standing reputation as a leading metals, machinery and manufacturing hub," said Chris Harder, director of Business Oregon. "The partnership – a collaborative effort between industry, academia and government – lays a foundation for long-term job creation, skill development and advanced technology in the state, while immediately increasing the competitiveness of local companies."
Based on the Advanced Manufacturing and Research Center in Sheffield UK, OMIC will be the first of its kind in the U.S.
The center is a partnership of industry, higher education, and government. Oregon Institute of Technology will purchase an existing building that will serve as the R&D center, with Boeing, Oregon State University and Portland State University and regional industrial partners as anchor tenants. Portland Community College will create the training center, which will focus on serving students through industry sponsored skilled apprenticeships. Higher education institutions will develop and support pathways to advanced careers in engineering and advanced manufacturing.

I thought I couldn't go wrong with David Lodge, and somehow I can't. All his books are enjoyable readings, full of humour, and I personally use them as a form of therapy whenever I feel down or feel the need to relax between two serious readings.( it was funny when I read ' Therapy' for therapy :) ).
Anyway, coming back to this particular book, I have to say that I was disappointed with the plot, and at some point it even made me mad. We have again this campus story and the clash between two opposite caharacters who eventually fall in a relationship. There is Helen Reed and Ralph Messenger ( nice names, isn't it :) ), and she is a novelist and a widow, and he is a cognitive scientist and a married man and a Don Juan, and the problem of consciousness.
I won't go into details, much and nothing happens than the usual. What is unusual for D Lodge is the consistency of the characters. I liked Helen Reed a lot till she started behaving like a school girl while Ralph Messenger seemed to me a pale copy of Morris Zapp. I profoundly disliked the ending, particularly what Helen does, but maybe I'm just too young to understand.
But, as I said, you can't really go wrong with David Lodge. The multiple point of views( three of them) , the pastiches, the social comedy, the absurdities and the mixed relationships all make for a good reading.

The Town recently passed new legislation prohibiting overnight camping at the Show UNLESS you are an exhibitor - this means all camper vehicles, tour buses, Recreational Vehicles, Vans, etc., seeking overnight parking are required to overnight park at commercial campgrounds.

If you park on a state road, we guarantee you will be ticketed and towed (and have to deal with Crazy-Dave to get your car back!

Mung makes Flutternut Tarts, but Chowder puts too much delight that gives it some bite and accidentally ruins Mung's tongue which make makes him unable to taste things. So he asked Chowder to be his "taste buds". But Chowder's tongue thinks that all the food he makes is awesome. So they go to The Tongue Gym to train Chowder's tongue. After the workout, he has a strong looking tongue that can make suggestions even if Chowder likes it, as if it had a mind of its own. But the monstrous tongue soon won't eat anything but Purple pea on a platter, which makes Truffles get carried away. Chowder does not like this. So Mung gets the Flutter Nut Tart from before. Now Chowder can't taste anything but is satisfied with the fact that he can't be controlled anymore.
- This is the second time Chowder dressed up as a leprechaun.
- Mung breaks the fourth wall when he asked the viewers who likes food the most, parodying preschool education programs.
- In the episode, when you break your tongue, you have to order a new one. In real life, if you break your tongue, it is either paralyzed forever, or surgery has to be performed.
- Chowder sometimes has quick hunger.
- Chowder says "You devilwoman" the second time, The Party Cruise is the first.

Well Intended But Ill-Conceived / Part One
Author's Note:
This paper was originally written in the spring of 2012 as my final submission for a seminar course on Holocaust memorialization. I was searching for a unique topic that my Professor likely hadn't engaged with before. I recalled a series of articles by Stephen Totilo and Brian Crecente which expertly explored the controversy over a fan-made Holocaust mod for Wolfenstein 3D. I was immediately intrigued by the position that the Jewish Anti-Defamation League took in an interview with Kotaku: "The Holocaust should be off-limits for video games." Considering some of the powerful ideas I'd engaged with through gaming, I questioned whether this wholesale rejection of the medium was appropriate. Yes, the mod in question is rather crude and fails to take the subject-matter seriously, but what if a game did take the topic seriously? What if a game could maintain a sensitive balance between artistic license and historical accuracy, AND take its players on an impactful narrative journey that no other medium could achieve?
In the interest of readability, I've made some minor alterations, and separated the paper into two articles. The first article will introduce the debate over Sonderkommando Revolt, an unreleased Wolfenstein 3D mod which depicted a prisoner revolt in a concentration camp. In the second article, I will look at the potential good that could come from a video game depiction of the Holocaust. A follow-up article will be posted in the coming weeks to see what, if anything, has changed in the last five years. If you're interested in reading the paper, in its original form, don't hesitate to send me a request.
In 2007, production began on a Wolfenstein 3D mod [21] entitled Sonderkommando Revolt. The mod depicted a scenario in which the player controlled a Sonderkommando (work units comprised of Nazi concentration camp prisoners who were tasked with disposing of recently gassed victims), who "revolted against the Nazis in the Auschwitz Extermination Camp." [1] At the apex of its development cycle, just prior to its release, mainstream news sources caught wind of this "revenge fantasy". [2] In response, the Jewish Anti-Defamation League (ADL) condemned it, judging that "Perhaps well intentioned in its creation, its execution and imagery are horrific and inappropriate," and finally arguing that "The Holocaust should be off-limits for video games." [3] This series of articles will look at the various perspectives on the viability of the Holocaust in video games, ultimately proposing that video games – as an art form and tool for the dissemination of information and moral lessons – are too valuable a vehicle to deem 'off-limits'. The related and underlying topics of video games as a medium, the effects they have on their players, and what they offer to understanding of the Holocaust, will also be critically examined.
Sonderkommando Revolt – The Holocaust Revenge Fantasy in Video game Form
The mod itself is a work of fiction, loosely extrapolated from an actual revolt that took place in Auschwitz – Birkenau. During the event, Sonderkommandos, [4] armed with crude grenades and makeshift weapons, proceeded to revolt in several Crematoriums in the camp. The result was a brutal counter-attack by the Nazi guards that resulted in over 450 deaths of Sonderkommandos and prisoners [5] and only three SS members. [6]
The mod reverses the result of the revolt described above, in a wildly violent revenge fantasy. Unfolding as the player takes control of the protagonist, and real-life Auschwitz-Birkenau prisoner, Zalmen Gradowski, the mod depicts a Sonderkommando who embarks on a first-person Nazi shooting spree. [7] The protagonist travels through various locations in the camp such as "Crematoriums, Block 11, Gas Chambers, execution, interrogation and torture areas...," all based on actual images taken from the camps. [8] Indeed, one of the mod's main programmers and the only one of Jewish descent, described the game as "very realistic, moody, challenging and detailed." [9] Some of the more brutal and sensational images in the game, were that of Jewish prisoners hanging bloody from a hook, being engulfed in flame, and eaten by a dog. All of which, was featured in the game's pre-release trailer.10 Although primitive in its visual quality by modern standards, the message is clearly conveyed to the player: you have been brutally persecuted – now is your chance at retribution.
The revenge fantasy created in Sonderkommando Revolt can be likened to that of director Quentin Tarantino's contemporary Nazi-killing film, Inglourious Basterds (2009). However, where one is maligned and condemned to the point of cancellation, the other is critically acclaimed, and its creator is lauded for his work. The question to be asked then is 'what is the difference between the videogame medium and other art forms depicting Holocaust events?' and 'why are film and other media allowed artistic liberties while videogames are demonized?'
The Debate
Journalist Stephen Totilo calls for the medium of video games to be utilized for what it can offer above other media. He admits that the mod in question, Sonderkommando Revolt, is quite possibly exploitation. Although, perhaps on a subconscious level, in that its creators had honest intentions with no agenda beyond entertainment. [11] However, Totilo applauds the game's ability to evoke a revenge fantasy that "make[s] [its] audience feel better," and that the revenge fantasy as a genre itself is nothing new. [12] He points to Tarantino's film, as well as pornographic materials called Stalags introduced in the 1960s which depicted female SS officers abusing prisoners "before [the] tables [are] flipped and the women are raped and killed." [13] This sparked considerable controversy with the central question of "whether perversion justified perversion" being debated, and much material being confiscated by the police. [14] As Totilo makes clear, there is a natural and inherent desire for any persecuted or subjugated people, regardless of the nature and rationale for the persecution, to retaliate against their persecutors. Totilo uses the examples of Japanese manga depicting a defeated America after World War II, and hip-hop songs that fantasize about cop killing. [15] Perhaps the video game offers a safe environment to release anger and violent tendencies – even in a setting like the Holocaust. This is not to say that Sonderkommando Revolt is exemplary of this phenomenon. Nor is it a work that engenders genuine understanding and insight into the horrors and reality of the holocaust. Rather, that the video game medium has the potential to facilitate achievement of these desired psychological ends.
Totilo sees the video game as the perfect vehicle for catharsis – allowing the player to effectively "[strike] back through video games." [16] He argues that "[it's] odd we've seen so little of [revenge fantasy in video game form]. In a movie we can watch someone else's revenge. By controlling a game, we could pretend to be having our own revenge – or someone else's, considering we could be anyone." [17] Ultimately, Totilo argues that it can only be an appropriate revenge fantasy if it feels good. [18] In Inglourious Basterds, we revelled in the retribution carried out by Lt. Aldo Raine and his Basterds on the Nazis. It felt good to see justice served, in such palpable and unequivocal terms, albeit in a fictional and fantasized way. As such, Totilo concludes that we cannot pass judgement on Sonderkommando Revolt until we have actually played it. Until we know that it "feels good, and if it did, if feeling good would feel right." [19] Contrasted with the ADL's position, we start to see the futility of judging a work of art (or, for that matter, if we can call a mod like Sonderkommando Revolt "art"). Totilo's willingness to engage with content, that is initially deemed taboo, should be commended. He notes the potential for such a game, while acknowledging the problematic nature of Sonderkommando Revolt. The ADL's statement only serves to stifle discourse on the subject. Totilo wants to move the discussion forward through nuanced debate, and a genuine curiosity for the potential of video games.
Despite Totilo's reasoning, the intense negative spotlight on the mod was such that the developer chose to cancel the game indefinitely. In several interviews, and an official statement on the development page, creator Maxim Genis (under the handle 'Doomjedi') defended his mod. Genis' reason for cancellation was that the attention he was receiving had "devastate[d] [him] completely," and that being called an anti-semite "killed [him] emotionally." [20] In a notice, the development team stated that the project's overexposure was "way beyond its context, proportions and intentions... this mod was made for modding fans, particularly for a quite limited community of Wolf3D [Wolfenstein 3D] fans, as Wolf3D mods (being mods of an 18 year old game) are not much played nowdays [sic]." [22] Genis notes that one of the basic rules he subscribes to as a modder is to attach no meaning, no political agenda to his creations and as such, those playing it should not try to attach meaning to it – rather, they are to simply enjoy it for what it is: a game. [23] Interestingly, Genis has also said that he drew inspiration from his spiritual convictions; believing that in a previous life, he was a prisoner of a concentration camp and served as a Sonderkommando. [24]
Perhaps the ADL is right that the creators of Sonderkommando Revolt were misguided but in their defence, its creation was honest in intention. It was meant to be fun. They were genuinely naive and ignorant with respect to the moral debate inherent in their creation. Yes, it was made solely to be 'fun' with no political agenda. Yes, it is a mod made for an 18 year old game that would not see a widespread audience. But despite its insignificance, by virtue of the nature of its subject matter, it has triggered an emotionally charged and contentious debate over what is acceptable for videogame representation. Thereby presenting another chapter in the age-old debate over freedom of speech and artistic expression.
The ADL, however, were quick to condemn the game in an official tweet, saying that the "Sonderkommando Revolt video game's Holocaust imagery is horrific and inappropriate." [25] The ADL continued to say that the Holocaust should be off-limits for video games, with the closing statement that "This rudimentary video game is an offensive portrayal of the Holocaust... With its unnecessarily gruesome and gratuitous graphics, it is a crude effort to depict Jewish resistance during this painful period which should never be trivialized." The argument against the game itself has merit, but where the ADL's judgement falters is in its condemnation of the medium as a whole. The game should be judged on its content, not simply because it is a game. Why should the Holocaust be off-limits for what is now recognized as an art form by the US National Endowment for the Arts? [26] The ADL's blanket and unequivocal statement poses the question: is there a place for interactivity in understanding the holocaust and its critical lessons?
Next week, the second part of this article will elaborate on these questions, and further consider what good could come from a Holocaust video game.

Pensacola Network Celebrates Their 4th Year Anniversary
By Charles Davis III
On Friday, July 26th, the Pensacola Network hosted their 4th Year anniversary and monthly networking event at De Villiers Square from 5pm to 8pm. Co-founded by couple Robin and Llyod Reshard, the Pensacola Network is a new community organization that connects African American business owners, organizations, and professionals. Sponsors of the Pensacola Network included Cox, Gulf Power, Magic 106.1, WEAR, and many more.
The Pensacola Network is not only for the gathering of likeminded intellectuals and peers but also for up and coming businesses and entrepreneurs. "We want to help anybody get started in their business and improve their business," stated Llyod Reshard on anyone starting a new business.
Robin Reshard commented that people who are looking for employment and people who are in business looking for contracts, vendor opportunities and such can meet with board members, volunteers and information scholars to discuss plans and options. Both say it's a mix of the corporate world, the community, and the college world coming together to create this.
Robin Reshard has also been selected as a USA Today 52 Great Americans of 2017 and it's because of the consistent community work that has and continues to be done, that this national recognition has come to fruition. Robin also credits the team, that makes the Pensacola Network function, as a key part in this recognition as the Network continues to grow.
The youth of the community can also benefit from the Pensacola Network by sharing new ideas and attending these events as their ideas may help them with forming solid business plans. "We help teach young people who have ideas, and those who may even be young entrepreneurs, to broaden and expand their audience with this opportunity," stated Robin Reshard.
"It shows them the possibilities. It shows them the ranges of different careers and passions and how to turn that avocation into a vocation." Reshard continued.
With their motto, "Connect people in strength and relationships", the Pensacola Network is a networking association that also uses social media as a helpful tool but not the main tool. "It is a way of connecting but it doesn't replace that face to face aspect. People want to see who their doing business with and while social media may be a useful tool, it also puts up this false perception of people." says Robin. "It's a good tool but not the only tool," she continued.

Embroiled in court cases on both sides of the Atlantic, Rory McIlroy has been visiting lawyers' offices instead of winning golf titles this year.
The Northern Irishman remains without a victory in 2013 as he returns to Dubai, United Arab Emirates, this week to defend his last victory, the World Tour Championship. He's slipped from No. 1 in the rankings to No. 6.
In the 12 months since, he has become tied up in legal wrangling with his former management company, Horizon Sports Management, and his former sponsor, Oakley.
"I've seen more lawyers' offices and more lawyers this year than I care to see in my entire life," McIlroy said this week from Dubai. "It's not something I ever want to go through again, and I'm making sure that I won't go through it again.
"As a golfer, you want your mind as clear as possible, and it's hard for that to happen when you've got other things that are going on that, firstly, you don't want to happen, and secondly, you don't feel should be happening. It has been a distraction."
McIlroy said he was taking some advice from Tiger Woods about how to handle his off-course issues.
"Sometimes you have to say 'no' and sometimes you have to put yourself first and say 'no,' and I need to do this for myself to maintain the level in my game," McIlroy said.
"It's something Tiger actually said to me last year. He said you have to remember what got you here in the first place, and you know Tiger, it's 'no' 99 percent of the time for him."
Manila tournament to go ahead: The Asian Tour has confirmed the inaugural Resorts World Manila Masters golf tournament will proceed as scheduled this week despite the devastation Typhoon Haiyan wreaked on parts of the southern Philippines. Asian Tour chief executive Mike Kerr said in a statement that the decision to continue with the tournament that begins Thursday at the Southwoods Golf and Country Club was made after "careful consideration and consultation with the local golf associations, authorities and relief agencies."
Johnson replaces Els: Ernie Els withdrew this week from Tiger Woods' World Challenge to play the Nedbank Challenge in his native South Africa on Dec. 5-8. Els was replaced in the 18-man field at Dustin Johnson.

Many famous people visited opera house
Gas and electric lights glowed as local performers took to the stage of the new Grand Opera House for the first time.
A packed house greeted actors and actresses as they presented "State's Evidence," a six-act play written by Samuel W. Nichols. The opera house, located on the northeast corner of Jacksonville's public square, opened Jan. 25, 1892.
Local theater lovers were without a suitable auditorium in which to stage plays and musicals between the burning of Strawn's Opera House in the summer of 1887 and the opening of the Grand Opera House four and a half years later.
The Grand Opera House was the dream of J.H. Osborne, a Jacksonville businessman, and together with wealthy brothers Charles and William Routt, the local theater became a reality.
The four-story building was constructed of stone and brick, with some of the work being done by F.W. Menke Stone Co. of Quincy, the same contracting firm which helped build the Greene County Courthouse in Carrollton, Westminster [now First] Presbyterian Church in Jacksonville and the Jacksonville Public Library.
The Grand Opera House measured 180 feet by 90 feet and originally contained seven stores, a basement restaurant, 60 offices, as well as a large theater lobby and an auditorium with a seating capacity of nearly 1,400. Patrons had their choice of floor, gallery or private box seating.
The builders went all out in decorating the theater, which had a lobby with natural wood on the walls, a tile floor and a frescoed ceiling.
The theater was lighted with 500 gas fixtures and nearly as many electric lights on the stage and in the hall.
"The crowning glory of the house, however, is the stage. It is such a one that it has excited the surprise of every professional dramatic artist who has visited it, and caused Sol Smith Russell, the leading comedian, bar Joseph Jefferson, on the American stage, to exclaim that it was, if anything, a little too large," wrote a Jacksonville Journal reporter. The stage dimensions were 40 feet by just over 62 feet. Russell spent some of his boyhood years in Jacksonville.
Over the years, the Grand Opera House stage served as a platform for many famous people, including three-time presidential candidate William Jennings Bryan, Adm. George Dewey, socialist Eugene V. Debs, poet James Whitcomb Riley, actress Sarah Bernhardt and blues musician W.C. Handy.
In addition, the opera house building contained a hotel, also named the Grand, in the early 1900s.
The Grand Opera House began showing motion pictures in the early 1900s, and in 1927 the building became the Illinois Theatre, which showed some of the first sound films, better known as "talkies," in Jacksonville.
The building was demolished in early 1938 and replaced by the current Illinois Theatre building.
"Throughout its history [the Grand Opera House] has been the scene of notable events of Jacksonville life," wrote a Jacksonville Daily Journal reporter in 1937, when it was announced the building would be razed. "Great actors and actresses have played behind its footlights. Many a home talent show has brought to its stage the best local entertainers."
This Way We Were story was first published Jan. 19, 2004.

Learn to swear
A 7-year-old and a 4-year-old are upstairs in their bedroom.
'You know what?' says the 7-year-old, 'I think it's about time we started Swearing.'
The 4-year-old nodshis head in approval, so the 7-year-old says,
When we go downstairs for breakfast I'm going to swear first, then you swear after Me, ok?'
'Ok' the 4-year-old, agrees with enthusiasm..
The mother walks into the kitchen and asks the 7-year-old what he wants for Breakfast.
'Oh, shit mum, I don't know, I suppose I'll have some Coco Pops'
WHACK!! He flew out of his chair, tumbled across the kitchen floor, got up,
And ran upstairs crying his eyes out.
She looked at the 4-year-old and asked with a stern voice, ' And what do YOU
Want for breakfast, young man?'
'I don't know,' he blubbers, 'but it won't be f**king Coco Pops'

"Everyone lives in a story… because stories are all there are to live in, it was just a question of which one you choose" (The Shadow Lines 109)
Amitav Ghosh's The Shadow Lines (TSL) is a story that arises out of the narrator's reminiscences, recollected in tranquility and looked at with all the wisdom of the hind sight. It is about essentialization as a process, and its questioning in various ways. Essentialization is a very dangerously deceptive thing, especially when its purpose is a neat compartmentalization of human beings on the basis of subjective traits. Even then, sustaining the definition of water tight compartments of humanity becomes very difficult when homogeneity tends to erase the well defined boundaries, making them blurred and shadowy. One of the many appealing facets of TSL is the way it looks at the accident that descended on the pages of history: the creation of two nations on the basis of the incompatibility of two religious groups and their mutual hatred. East and West Pakistan were carved out of the British India on the basis of the two nation theory that totally opposed any possibility of co-existence. Boundaries were created and people were forced to alter their lives and selves to accommodate them to the conceptual nations that the powerful persons had created.
TSL shows the plight of the narrator's grandmother and her loss of the sense of secure moorings; a point of reference to which one returns for assurance. Her loss was caused due to the borders imposed on her. In his Modern Political Geography Richard Muir defines boundaries that "occur where the vertical interfaces between state sovereignties intersect the surface of the earth…As vertical interfaces, boundaries have no horizontal extent" (qtd. inAnderson 172). Tha'mma would have been perplexed with Muir's elegantly defined boundaries that only existed in the conceptual space. In her own simple way she "wanted to know whether she would be able to see the border between India and East Pakistan from the plane" (TSL 90). She wasn't looking for a line as such, but for some indicator of demarcation.
Hindus and Muslims, unlike the White and Black peoples, have no phenotypical inherent traits to tell them from each other. They shared land, culture and more than a thousand years of history. They had lived together, happily or unhappily, peacefully or struggling for survival on the same resource base. They would have kept doing the same had their fates not been manipulated by those who had assumed God-head, with its power, will, means and knowledge. The gods had developed a line of reasoning that showed the two categories of Hindus and Muslims as completely irreconcilable and essentially antagonistic. Their ideas found fruition in the first nation of the world that was constructed purely on the basis of religion:Pakistan, or the land of the holy. The storyofpakistan.com asserts confidently:
As early as in the beginning of the 11th century, Al-Biruni observed that Hindus differed from the Muslims in all matters and habits…The speech made by Quaid-i-Azam atMintoPark,Lahoreon March 22, 1940 was very similar to Al-Biruni's thesis in theme and tone. In this speech, he stated that Hindus and Muslims belong to two different religious philosophies, with different social customs and literature…He emphasized that in spite of the passage of about 1,000 years the relations between the Hindus and Muslims could not attain the level of cordiality.
The Muslim fundamentalists were inadvertently but ably supported by the Hindu right wing. Leaders ranging from Quaid-e-Azam to Guruji had supported and established in the popular imagination the mutually exclusive and entirely essentialist categories of Hindus and Muslims. Their efforts bore fruit by contributing towards the establishment of these categories as parallels to the imagined communities of nations.Andersondefines nation as "an imagined political community… inherently limited and sovereign"(6). Despite all differences and conflicts, the members of this imagined community have a strong sense of belonging. "It is generally recognized that the intelligentsia were central to the rise of nationalism in the colonial territories… [their] vanguard role derived fro their… literacy and bilingualism" (Anderson116). It was the intelligentsia who had started the process. Sir Syed Ahmed Khan was one of the first to broach the issue of fundamental incompatibility. Allama Iqbal had called the idea of territorially divided loyalties to nations as one of the modern inventions and an enemy of the solidarity of the Muslim "umma". He was right about the imaginary and inventedness of nations, asAndersontoo would assert five decades later.
History does not prove Iqbal's claim of the solidarity of the inherently heterogeneous Muslim umma that cuts across innumerable linguistic and geographical boundaries right, as is clear from the present unrest in Pakistan itself. The Hindu-Muslim rift was deepened, widened and clearly defined in the decades enveloping 1900. It is from then same time period that one may trace the unbroken lineage of the monster of communal hatred – communal riots – in the Indian subcontinent. The demographics specific to the subcontinent facilitated its origin and growth. Hindus or Muslims, whether they formed an absolute majority in a geographical region and felt secure in their numerical strength, or they were a minority, and the potential victims of persecution on the basis of the religion of their birth: in each case there was a way to communalize masses. The mass paranoia of the inevitable discrimination based on religion was fed and raised to a heightened pitch by those who had the most to benefit from such circumstances. Public fear was roused in order to gain political mileage and what came out of it was natural and logical.
Ironically, the partition of the two nations joined them even more closely and strongly. So strongly, that an event inIndia's northern most state ofJammu and Kashmircaused riots in both Indian and Pakistani parts of the subcontinent on both sides of the border. The same happened after 8 December 1992, whileIndiawas spilling its blood, so wasBangladeshwhere "Muslims attacked and burnt down Hindu temples and shops … At least 10 people have died, many Hindu women have been raped, and hundreds of Hindu homes and temples have been destroyed" ("Chronology for Hindus inBangladesh"). One strong similarity between the two riots is the presence of the desecration of the religious symbols at their core: "the sacred relic known as the Mu-i-Mubarak – believed to be a hair of the Prophet Mohammad himself" and the mosques at Ayodhya, Mathura and Kasi or Varanasi (TSL 135). Politicians were behind inciting the masses into violent action, and in keeping the government machinery inert while they went on a rampage, on both sides of the borders of time and space. TSL has a number of lines of action and the one that's red with blood is etched very clearly in its second half.
India's test series againstEnglandwas to begin on 10 January 1964 inMadras. It was on that fateful date that the narrator of TSL was to taste what the fear of an unknown "they" meant. In his comparatively empty school bus he was introduced to the faith inducing powers of rumors. Most of the students had not brought water that day because the rumor of "their" poisoning all the water ofCalcuttahad already spread. The very psychology of the unchallengeable and pre-validated logic of rumors brings back to my mind the post riot curfew days of 1991, when morning rumors were congealed and solidified by the evening. In those days the two dailies: Aj in the morning and Gandeev in the evening, were the only source of local information for people thirsty for any snippets that could confirm or prove wrong whatever they had heard throughout the day. More than that, they needed objective justification of their own prejudices. Just like the little boys in TSL, they "did not need to ask any question… [they] knew the answers… it was a reality that existed only in the saying" (TSL 120).
TSL show violence through its presence in the background and its pervading the atmosphere, also through its turning into silence, through its conversion into a recurring nightmare, and finally, through the narration of the one graphical act of violence that left a permanent scar on the lives of its witnesses (Robi, May and Tha'mma). The January 1964 riots, that BBC rightly called "the first incident of religious violence since 1950" in India spread on both sides of the border. They are portrayed not so much as direct acts of violence as through the tension and fear created in the minds of the children (the narrator and his schoolmates in one case and Robi in the other). This tension and the unmentioned yet ever discernible fear create an atmosphere that becomes a character in itself – an important determiner of actions and lives. It is this tension and fear in the atmosphere that brings back to my mind a series of reminiscences from the Varanasi riots of 1991-92, the chaos, the heat, and how it was felt by those on the extreme periphery of any active involvement or loss. Fear is central in both the cases: of fictional and real lives. In TSL there is an elemental fear of violence that the children in the bus feel when they hear the noise of the rioting mob, and later when they were followed by one. They could not compare it to anything else in their experience and the narrator later opines insightfully:
It is a fear that comes of the knowledge that normalcy is utterly contingent, that the spaces that surround one, the streets that one inhabits, can become, suddenly and without warning, as hostile as a desert in a flash flood. It is this that sets apart the thousand million people who inhabit the subcontinent from the rest of the world – not language, not food, not music – it is the special quality of loneliness that grows out of the fear of the war between oneself and one's image in the mirror (122).
Fear of that kind is ever present. Always ready to rise in the hearts of the trapped people, making them feel cornered enough to plan retaliation and contribute to the vicious cycle of violence that begets violence. A similar fear was in the air back in 1991-92 also. Instead of treating the parallel at an emotional and personal level, the present paper attempts to incorporate the analogical streams of 1964 and 1991-92 riots in showing their pattern. It does not try to hide differences, if there, e.g. one major difference between them was that the 1964 riots were relegated to the narrow columns of the last pages of the news papers, but the 1991-92 riots (coming right after the infamous 1989 Varanasi riot) was very widely covered and reported about. The narrator painfully realized it when he mentioned the riots of 1964 to his friends and they accepted being completely ignorant of it.
"Real" life enters fiction and a history treads cautiously into the orbit of narration when a historical novel touches a real life event. TSL's narrative is woven around the historically real incidents with complete details of their occurrence. Everything is treated in such a manner that the reader is forced to suspend all disbelief willingly, effortlessly, even colluding with the narrator/writer; more so, when dates and numbers are woven into the story. 10 January 1964, when the first match of the test series was to begin, and its co-incidence with the riot's entering the life of the narrator is a clever device. A detailed account of the events that led to the riots is given in the novel. On 27 December 1963 Mu-i-Mubarak disappeared. There were some incidents of people's damaging public property, but their anger was directed against the government and not against any particular religious community. Moreover, the protesters belonged to all the religions. Pandit Nehru sent CBI to the valley and the relic was recovered. Yet the damage was already done. The Pakistani "religious authorities, usually so quick to condemn idolatry, declared that the theft of the relic was an attack upon the identity of Muslims.Karachiobserved 31 December as a 'Black Day', and soon other cities followed suit. The Pakistani newspapers declared that the theft was part of a deep-laid conspiracy for uprooting the spiritual and national hopes of Kashmiris, and rumbled darkly about 'genocide'" (TSL 136).
In the East Pakistani town ofKhulnathe demonstrators against the disappearance of the relic turned against the minority Hindus and many lives were lost. As Trivedi reports, the riots soon spread all overEast Pakistan. The whiplash was soon felt inCalcuttaas refugees from East Pakistan fled toIndia. On 10 January, mobs went on a rampage, killing Muslims and destroying their property. Army was called when the situation went out of control. The violence was stopped and everything went back to normal, as the narrator declares: "By the end of January 1964 the riots had faded away from the pages of the newspapers, disappeared from the collective imagination of 'responsible opinion', vanished without leaving a trace in the histories and bookshelves. They had dropped out of memory into the crater of a volcano of silence" (TSL 138). Individual paranoia, worked onto a feverish pitch, had been and can be conjugated at macro level to create concerted and planned violent action called a riot. The Indian sub-continent had been a witness to many such planned blood baths whose origin lies in the establishment of the two nation theory in the collective psyche. Such were the fruits of the tree of hatred whose seed was sown around the beginning of the twentieth century.

A village school has celebrated maintaining its 'good' Ofsted rating with a new sign to shout about their achievements.
With 72 pupils on the roll, Normanby by Spital headteacher Emma Negus-Hill says they are a 'small school with big ideas'.
"I am immensely proud of my school, of pupils, staff, governors, parents/carers and the community, that have worked so hard to make the school the 'good' school that Ofsted recognises it is.
"Without everyone being on board with the vision and working so tirelessly to ensure the best outcomes for all of our pupils, this would not have been possible."
In the report, the inspector said the leadership team had 'maintained the good quality of education in the school since the last inspection' and went on to praise Mrs Negus-Hill for her work since she joined the school a year ago.
The report reads: "Since your arrival in January 2016, you have raised the expectations of teachers to improve the outcomes of pupils."
Ofsted also identified a 'high staff morale' and that 'teachers and adults have created a positive and purposeful environment where the children are thriving.'
This has resulted in the outcomes of all pupils being in-line or above the national average; something that was recognised in the report.
The inspector went on to give next steps for the school, which include challenging the most able pupils to improve their writing, developing pupils' mathematical skills to reason and problem-solve, and develop spelling further.
"We are a small school, but we have BIG ideas, we embrace our community and are honoured to be part of something that may be small by scale, but is immense by nature," said Mrs Negus-Hill.
"We want everyone to know how 'good' our school is - for it to be a place where pupils want to come, and where professionals want to develop themselves and be inspired.
"This is only the beginning of our exciting journey."

Virginia says 'NO' to Detention Act
NDAA Nullification Passes Virginia House 96-4
Posted by Michael Boldin
- On Tuesday, February 14th, the Virginia House of Delegates voted in favor of House Bill 1160 (HB1160). The final vote was 96-4.
The legislative goal of HB1160 is to codify in Virginia law noncompliance with what many are referring to as the "kidnapping provisions" of section 1021 and 1022 of the National Defense Authorization Act of 2012 (NDAA). The official summary of 1160:
"A BILL to prevent any agency, political subdivision, employee, or member of the military of Virginia from assisting an agency of the armed forces of the United States in the conduct of the investigation, prosecution, or detention of a citizen in violation of the United States Constitution, the Constitution of Virginia, or any Virginia law or regulation."
HB1160 is sponsored by Delegate Bob Marshall and was introduced on 01-16-12. It previously passed out of Sub-Committee #2 Civil, by a vote of 6-3 and the Courts of Justice Committee by a vote of 16-0. After a series of action alerts by the Tenth Amendment Center nationally, and a number of supporting groups locally – Courts of Justice committee members heard from the people they represent that a full house hearing and vote to reject the NDAA is what they wanted. With a 96-4 vote, the Virginia House sent a message on indefinite detentions – a resounding NO! More…

Feds Label Bulk Buying of Food a Potential Terrorist Activity
by Paul Joseph Watson, InfoWars.com:
As part of its effort to encourage business owners to spy on their customers, the FBI has labeled the bulk purchase of food as a potential indication of terrorist activity, despite the fact that FEMA itself last year purchased $1 billion dollars worth of storable food.
A flyer aimed at Military Surplus stores produced under the auspices of the FBI's Communities Against Terrorism project, encourages owners to report people who "make bulk purchases of items to include….meals ready to eat".
According to the flyer, the FBI advises store owners to demand ID's from all new customers, as well as asking them questions about their purchase and being aware of "suspicious statements".
The flyer also characterizes paying with cash or "demanding identity privacy" as an indication of terrorism.

Bad Dreams In The Night
By: Terresa Monroe-Hamilton
A terrifying new concept has recently reemerged in the global climatology fight and the clarion call is heralded by a book that Zombie just read: The Weather Conspiracy: The Coming of the New Ice Age.
So, let me get this straight… In the 1970′s, we were all going to freeze to death in a new ice age. In the 2000′s, we were going to be baked alive because of global warming. Now – old is new again and we are going to freeze to death once more. Oh, for crap's sake, make up your minds, why don't ya? More death, death, doom and death. How trite. More…

Policing the World
With an election approaching and at least some Americans upset about irresponsible spending, the president has finally expressed a political interest in cutting something. He says the Pentagon will spend "only" $525 billion next year. That's slightly less than the current $531 billion.
A cut is good, but this will barely dent the deficit. We could save much more if America assumed a military policy designed for defense rather than policing the world.
Presidential candidate Ron Paul gets criticized for advocating that. Paul's opponents, including many of my colleagues, complain about his "isolationist foreign policy." But shrinking the military's role isn't the same as isolation. America can have a huge impact in the world without deploying our military. We already do. By all means, let our movies and music alarm mullahs. Let our websites and books disseminate ideas that autocrats consider dangerous. Above all, let's trade with everyone. More…

The Stasi Strikes: FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force Raids Home of Suspected "Sovereign Citizens" in Lake Mary, Florida
Posted on 23 January 2012 by William Grigg
The FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force, in tandem with Seminole County Sheriff's deputies, conducted a full-force raid on the Lake Mary, Florida residence of a family accused of association with the "Sovereign Citizens" tax-protest movement, reports Orlando NBC affiliate WESH-TV.
Neighbor Evelyn Briggs told WESH that the raiding party "even had robots out there, almost like a movie." Evelyn's husband Robert told the local Fox affiliate that the strike force consisted of "about a dozen FBI agents and SWAT people."
"It's not something you see here in Lake Mary on an everyday basis," agreed fellow neighbor Jim Famiglietti," who appeared not to understand how the quiet and unremarkable couple could wind up being the target of such a draconian enforcement action. "It's kind of shocking, actually. People make mistakes, but you just don't know….Maybe some tax protesting and that kind of thing. People protest all the time in this country, and it's your right. I don't think the FBI would come in with that kind of fire power," said Famiglietti. More…

Daily Bell: Give us some background on yourself and how you have come to your current success.
Gerald Celente: My background is such that after graduate school and I got my Masters in Public Administration, I started running political campaigns in Westchester County in New York, which is a very affluent area. I was very successful at it so they sent me up to Albany, where I became the assistant to the secretary of the New York State Senate; Albany, of course, is the capital of New York State. It was there that I really started learning about the political game. It was probably the worst job I ever had because it was watching grown men suck up and bow down all day to get to the top.

NDAA: Open Season for the Police State
by Jim Babka, DownsizeDC
How the New Indefinite Detention Provisions can be used on Americans
Congress just passed, and the President just signed, a bill that gives legal authority to the President to kidnap and perpetually imprison persons, including American citizens, without the benefit of due process.
Members of Congress, in the days leading up to the vote, tried to assure their constituents that they have nothing to fear — that the bill doesn't apply to Americans.
Some were lying. Most were deceived. More…

Top Dem appropriator in House predicts agreement to avoid automatic cuts
House Appropriations Committee ranking member Norm Dicks (D-Wash.) this week predicted that Republicans and Democrats would be able to negotiate a deal that avoids $1.2 trillion in automatic spending cuts under the sequestration process.
"I don't think that's going to happen; I think that Congress will step in here," Dicks told The Seattle Times.
Both parties have indicated opposition to the sequestration process that Congress created last summer as part of its debt-ceiling agreement. Several Republicans have argued against the automatic defense cuts that would take place under sequestration, while Democrats oppose the cuts to non-defense, discretionary spending. More…

Indefinite Detention of US Citizens Bill
Obama Expresses Objections to Indefinite Detention of US Citizens While Signing Defense Bill …(But It Was His Administration That Insisted the Language Was Included in Bill)
President Obama signed the National Defense Authorization Act on Saturday, but not without expressing his objections to the funding bill's provisions on the treatment of suspected terrorists, including U.S. citizens.
Obama expressed "serious reservations" about the bill but argued in a signing statement released Saturday that it does not fundamentally change executive power.
The administration does not intend to interpret one provision as granting the military authority to detain Americans indefinitely, Obama said in the statement. It also opposes sections of the bill that block the transfer of detainees at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, to U.S. soil for any purpose and that restrict the government's ability to transfer detainees to other countries.
But… It was his administration that insisted that the language be included in the bill.
From the video: Senator Carl Levin (D-Mich.) told Congress recently that under the original wording of the National Defense Authorization Act, American citizens were excluded from the provision that allowed for detention. Once Obama's officials saw the text though, says Levin, "the administration asked us to remove the language which says that US citizens and lawful residents would not be subject to this section."
Specifically, the section that Obama asked to be reworded was Section 1031 of the NDAA FY2012, which says that "any person who has committed a belligerent act" could be held indefinitely.

My latest articles in December's Writing Magazine
My 'Beginners' page is called 'Layer it On', and is all about building your story gradually with layers of detail. Rather like a form of editing, it means going back and reading over what you've written, but instead of merely correcting typos, look for where you can improve what you've got.
This not only helps with adding depth and colour to your writing, be it characters, dialogue or scenes and so forth, but it's a belter for quietly building the word count (and I don't mean with padding).
As an aside, I think I started doing this a long time ago, mainly to improve what I'd done (naturally), but because I found attaining the word count to be the most depressing part of the whole business of writing; thinking I'd written XYZ thousands of words, I'd discover I'd done half that.
But when I came to the editing bit, I found putting stuff right, while losing some words, actually increased the total because I was focussing more on improving the quality rather than the quantity.
Sum total: a big increase in both.
The other (and much more important) part of December's issue is my profile of author Marion Grace Woolley, whose gothic novel 'Those Rosy Hours at Mazandaran' comes out in February.
Marion has a fascinating background working in Kigali, Rwanda, and proves that it's possible to write anywhere and far from home if you have the real writing urge.

Of course I love this. It is exactly how I write and we do tend to appreciate that which affirms us! :-) My first drafts are typically 'telling the story' (I know, I know, but wait).ReplyDelete
This could be considered a VERY detailed 'outline'. I see it more as a skeleton upon which I add the layers that bring the SHOW to life! The nervous system--show emotion, the muscles--show strength, the blood--show passion, the tendons--hold it all together, the flesh and skin wrap up the loose ends. Thanks for the opportunity to articulate the process. :-) SD Saxon aka Ellys Phox www.ellysphox.comReplies
Hi, Sylvia. Thank you for your comment. You're correct - the first write is a skeleton for adding flesh and colour. Somebody famous once said 'Tell the story'. What they meant (I believe) was get it down on paper... then add to it and edit, edit, edit. You can't always see where it's going until you have the nub of it there to read.Delete
Interesting... I came here bc MGW told me to (big fan!), and I find an interesting take on one of the editing rounds that some of us do... I'm only on my second round of editing, mind, but this time around, this round of detail fit in after "What Big Plot Holes Am I Missing?" and before "Line Editing/ Verisimilitude Check" Good to know other authors consider this a round of its own as well!ReplyDeleteReplies
Hi, Margaret. That MGW gets around, doesn't she? I regard every bit of work after the initial 'throw-down' of words as an edit; it adds to, improves and polishes (hopefully), and in the process, rarely loses words but increases them. Some writers number their work in drafts; I basically write, then edit... and edit. Each to their own.Delete

There is no day that does not bring some extra little jobs even though you think nothing new is coming to you. I spent rather a lazy morning, and started for New York at eleven fifty expecting to meet a lady on the train for whom I had made some appointments in New York. Miss Cook and I got on at Poughkeepsie, met my friend, turned over a seat and started talking, when a man came over and said: "Mrs. Roosevelt, do you know about the Railroad Retirement Bill?" I had to confess that my knowledge was slight. I had a vague idea however, that the one passed in a former session of Congress had been declared unconstitutional. My friend handed me his railroad paper so I could read all about it. "This would be a grand bill," he said, "and you should know what is going on."
We arrived in New York and went over to the Biltmore Hotel for lunch. I met some friends and we settled at a table but before I had begun to order luncheon a young man, very well dressed, bent over my chair and said: "Mrs. Roosevelt, I am from Arkansas and have been in New York for thirty-five days and I can not find a job. I wanted to make connections with radio work, but if you want a good chauffeur or valet, I would be glad to come to you. I am really in need of work." I have grown a little wary in my old age and I do not open my heart or my purse as easily as one might suppose, so I thought for a while to whom I could send this young man for investigation. Realizing that he was not a native of New York State, I took his name and told him if I could think of anyone, I would let him know. I had a hopeless feeling but the lady next to me said she was from Arkansas too, and one of the men in her firm would see him and find out about him. That news will go to the young man today. It is funny how sometimes Providence provides you with a solution when you really feel baffled.
And then people ask me: "What do you find to do that keeps you busy?"

Good salary. Also, a good community feel, although I suppose that's part of my job, to make sure there is a community there.
Long hours. Can't get past this. It's definitely something I can't deal with or stand - I'm more of a work to live kind of person and I want to spend time with my family and friends.
Prepare yourself for a bit of an old boys club, but lots of nice people there. I was on the right side as a woman in HR - I wouldn't want to be a female banker though, it's incredibly cut throat.

Flat organization gives a platform for continuous advancement. Low bar so easy to shine.
Weak financials pose a challenge for promotions. Very little subject matter experts. High volume of consultants replacing permanent positions.
Process improvement background is a plus. Bear in mind there is a strong push to move functions down to Jacksonville, FL.

As far back as I can remember, my sister has been obsessed with Tutti Fruitti Jelly Bellys. Whenever we so much as walked by a candy store she would insist on buying the sweet and fruity treat. While she has definitely become conscious of eating healthier, I know that those Jelly Bellys still hold a special place in her heart. Naturally, when her birthday came around, I decided to combine my newfound interest with her old love to make her a special birthday present- Tutti Fruitti infused vodka.
While my family had a celebratory dinner for her birthday, my sister and her husband also decided to have a little get-together for her friends. Hanging out with my sister's friends is always kind of awkward. They're nice enough, but they're also all eight years older than me and just part of a different world. Most of them have begun real careers and a set trajectory for their lives. So when she invited me to the party, I was a bit hesitant. I wanted to help her celebrate, but I'm also hopeless at socializing when I'm uncomfortable. Luckily, I decided to go. I felt super awkward at first, but by the end of the night I was chatting like the finest of extroverts.
I also got to try some moonshine that my brother-in-law had made and was surprised by its drinkability. It still, of course, had the typical harshness of moonshine. Fortunately, we had the sweet Tutti Fruitti infused vodka to follow it with.
Tutti Fruitti Infused Vodka
2/3 cup Tutti Fruitti Jelly Bellys
750 mL Vodka
2-3 Fruit Punch Jolly Ranchers (optional)
- Sterilize a 1 quart glass jar.
- Add the Tutti Fruitti Jelly Bellys, Fruit Punch Jolly Ranchers, and vodka.
- Store away from light and shake every day.
- Allow to infuse for one week.
- Strain out the remaining solids and repackage your delicious new vodka.
As I infused the vodka it soon became clear that one of the very cute aspects of the Tutti Fruitti Jelly Belly would actually lead to a very not cute drink. The multi-colored dots made the infusion a thoroughly unpleasant purpleish brown. Since I wanted to gift the drink, its appearance was very important to me. So, I added a couple Fruit Punch Jolly Ranchers to obtain a more pink color. However, if you don't mind the color and want to stay truer to the Tutti Fruitti flavor (the Fruit Punch changed the flavor just a bit), you can leave the Jolly Ranchers out.
I found this infused vodka a bit too sweet to sip straight, but thoroughly enjoyed it when made into a tall drink with ice and soda water.
How would you use this Tutti Fruitti infused vodka?

Outsourcing as we know it goes way back to the industrial revolution (1750 to 1900 for the non-historians). It probably existed as a business process since time immemorial.
And whilst in our era it started with manufacturing, there are now a plethora of products and services that are outsourced as a matter of course. Think Dyno-Rod: if your drains get backed up, who you gonna call? You could in theory pull up the drain covers yourself (don't forget the peg for your nose) and unclog the blockage. But why do that when a specialist team with all the right gear can do the job in a fraction of the time?
I've had discussions with the Financial Director of a major oil company who wanted to outsource the finance department. At the other end of the scale, anyone employing a locum can be considered to be using an outsourced facility.
However, there are a number of functions that many companies are loath to let go of, fully. There's a fear, often irrational, that an outsourced company would not have the same level of care or expertise as an employee. In my view, not necessarily true – in fact, not true at all.
Outsource some of my business processes? Why on Earth should I do that?
If you can train an employee why can't you train a third party?
There's also the issue of cost – how can someone else do the same function more effectively, for less cost and still make a profit?
Sometimes it can be economy of scale, more efficient ways of working, maybe better technology, or by using shared resources. Or, as in the Dyno-Rod case, the right kit.
It's highly likely that the UK-based Call Centres featured in many advertising campaigns today are also using an outsourced service.
Take Star for instance. We provide outsourced contact centre services, with our main focus on virtual reception/PA services. How many times have you rung a company, spoken to the receptionist who was unable to help and then said – "sorry, I'm only the receptionist". Only the receptionist!!
To us the receptionist is one of the most important people in your office. More often than not, they're the first point of contact with potential new clients and they make a massive difference to the way your clients view you.
Like a great receptionist, we can make your callers most welcome, make and change appointments, send reminders to clients to ensure they don't miss an appointment, take payments and much more.
We've even been instrumental in winning new customers for our clients. And in fact, that's how we get many of our new clients: someone calls in to speak to one of our clients (except it's actually STAR) and they like how we answer the phone and handle their enquiry.
We're happy to give you a free trial. Give us a call on 01933 462130 to discuss how we might benefit your business. Don't just take my word for it – check out what our clients have said about us by clicking here.

In an attempt to feel a sense of belonging, we may imagine an idealized dream of humanity as part of a greater, singular whole.
