But it is not the same when it comes to official documents and other requirements. All official documents, to be presented to the government of the UAE needs to be in Arabic. Also, many countries demand official documents in their native languages. This makes translation services one of the most important one in Dubai and JLT. Apart from this, a good translation service company such as QTS-DMCC can actually relieve you of all your communication stress by enabling your interaction with government agencies, and also get through to those in the fields of commerce, science, education, trade, business and IT quite easily.

The Business Plot was a conspiracy launched by numerous wealthy businessmen in his place. These businessmen had looked across the waters to Germany and thought Hitler really had something going on they should try out.
So now we have two separate events in an incredibly short period of time confirming the thoughts of writers at rebelinfo.com that were published just days before.
You can end up conflating every half-connected fact with your ideas, theories, and suspicions.
That’s when you start to see “them” and “they” everywhere.
And depending on how informed and practiced in reasoning your friends are, you can probably get your friends to believe the same sort of things you do.
Hell, if you are really brazened, you could start a radio show and force feed people the same balonelaying to your audiences worst fears, and stoking their pet hatreds, and get them believing in all sorts of half and even non-connected facts to prove your worldview.

en | N/A | N/A | Sydney Web startup incubator Pollenizer has secured more than $10 million in funding and successful exists for companies it advises. My Business learned what makes it tick in this exlusive profile.
Liubinskas should know – he's in 15 partnerships at present and is trying to consummate them all with successful exists for the entrepreneurs involved, as this is the goal of Pollenizer, the business incubation company he founded with partner Phil Morle in 2008.
"Phil was hired to run product engineering and I was hired to do run marketing and business development. Phil is an ex theatre director and me as a frustrated actor worked well together.
The pair considered adopting models from overseas incubators, including the very successful San Francisco-based Y Combinator and its model of funding and mentoring startups for three months. As their discussions progressed, the pair decided they wanted a deeper involvement "because that's what we love doing". Liubinskas says. "Just being an advisor is not enough for me.
I don't just want to get my hands dirty. I want to get mud all over me from head to toe. I want to be filthy dirty in the trenches."
"So what we set about doing was building an infrastructure which would be a machine that builds startups."
Why startups fail As the pair developed Pollenizer, they decided that strong company founders with ideas capable of reaching 1 million customers were their ideal clientele. During the incubator's first year of operation, they worked with around 60 such individuals, and a pattern emerged that explained their collective failure to get traction.
"They all had exactly the same problem – they lacked the ability to get focused and to move fast." Noting those issues helped Liubinskas and Morle learn how to help startups .
"No-one quits their job for a small idea," Liubinskas says. "By the time people think about an idea, they have put it together and it is so huge.
There are 10 moving parts and they all have to work together. They get a dotcom [Web address] and try to do it all at once. "The reality is you have no resources, no momentum ... nothing."
The low level of resources on offer to a startup has led Pollenizer to ground entrepreneurs, so they quickly test their ideas to see if it is possible to recruit real, paying customers and prove their ideas are valid.
"You have got to go and get one customer and make them happy," Liubinskas says. "Then you can think about the millionth customer."
The company has therefore devised a series of tactics that helps startups to test their ideas.
For one recent project, a pet food delivery service called Dog Food Fairy, the company arranged for a colleague to dress in a dog suit and visit popular off-leash dog walking areas around Sydney to hand out fliers about the new service.
The stunt quickly drew dog-walkers' attention, but also proved that they had little interest in finding a pre-delivered slab of Chum or Pal waiting on their doorsteps once a month.
The company also tests business ideas online.
"If you have a single Google ad with a single page and a PayPal button, there are 80 variations you can test," Liubinskas says. Pollenizer happily tries many of those combinations to test a business idea, even though the team has to process incoming orders manually.
"We call it the Wizard of Oz approach – the customer sees an ad, clicks a page, but they don't know we are all running around madly fulfilling an order."
Pollenizer does so happily, because testing a business is about flexibility, not scalability.
One company that helped the Pollenizers to develop this methodology was 3eep, a company that provided online tools to help community sports clubs connect with members and organise their affairs. When the Pollenizers found the company, it appeared successful, having lined up global partners and built a service with many features, but was nonetheless struggling.
"We said to them you would have been better off starting with women's netball teams in Parramatta and all you offer them is a training notification tool," Liubinskas says. "There's no business in that alone. But once you get the netballers, you get the soccer players and once you get Parramatta, you get another suburb. And once you get them using notifications, then you can get them using another feature."
Another company the Pollenizers recently worked with went through 45 iterations of its business model in four weeks, at a cost of $4,500, and failed.
"We had a lady come in and she had a quote from a Web design company for $100,000.
We said you would be crazy to spend that money, because you don't know if anyone wants your idea."
"When it failed, she was happy. She said 'You have just saved me $95,000'. At the end of that, one of our team members celebrated the failure.
Fast cheap failure is what we celebrate."
Confusing duality For some entrepreneurs, this 'start small and test' methodology is confronting.
"The duality is hard," Liubinskas says.
"Founders have this big vision for a business that they want to get out of bed to work on every day, but to do it they have to go and work in a very small business."
But the Pollenizers stick by their methodology because "a lot of people underestimate how many things you have to get right, or they think you just get a Web development company to build you a Web site and Tweet about it a lot.
But when you think about it, most people build a brand new business that no-one has ever built before and they think they are going to get it right the first time. To be honest, it takes 10 significant iterations to get it right. The only way you can do that on a budget is to start ridiculously small.
Because founders don't think about 10 steps, they spend all their money on the first version and blow it and have no room to try again. This is the beauty of going after just netball players in Parramatta. If you get it wrong, you can go and do something else! "But typically people go an spend a million dollars and take a year to do it. Our principles are to start with a small group and make them phenomenally satisfied. Then you can grow from there. We do want a significant market with potential for a million customers, but you have to start with 200."
Liubinskas says some founders don't like this idea and feel like Pollenizer is diluting their ideas. "We say 'Your dream is still there, but let's start here and make sure you have something to build from'."
Shared risk and reward Another important element of the Pollenizer model is sharing risk and reward with company founders.
Pollenizer usually starts with a strong founder who is not a technologist, and insists on businesses that won't make money through advertising. The founder and Pollenizer each put in some money, which covers costs of a small team to work on the company. The founder leaves their job, gets a small salary and works full time on their idea, and Pollenizer takes 50 per cent equity in the new company.
"It's not the same with a service provider," Liubinskas insists. "You need skin in the game.
It cannot be about just consultancy. It has to be about the upside, because everyone is aligned."
This approach means that Pollenizer's people are 'everything' for a startup, because they need a cando attitude, a willingness to constantly develop their skills, and above all, a certain fearlessness.
"Pollenizer attracts people who don't want big salaries," Liubinskas says. "People say they work here because of the team, the challenge, the impact they can make. Everyone is working on two businesses at once and the speed of learning is great."
Most employees come from personal networks, and those with formal business training often don't make the cut.
"MBAs have not worked for us at all," Liubinskas says. "They do not think fast enough. We are 1 per cent strategy and 99% implementation.
The people who struggle here are those who are fearful of trying because it suffocates the business if you do not get it out there."
Building for the future Pollenizer is now building for the future. The company has brought in Tony Faure, a former CEO of ninemsn, and numerous other experienced staff for a total local headcount of 25.
Now working on its a wholly-owned venture, a staff feedback tool called Wooboard, Pollenizer is also expanding its role as a source of funding. The company has already run one fund, with $500,000 in the kitty, and is working on another.
Previous investors in Pollenizer companies are the source of these funds and Liubinskas says they were happy to chip in, because they have seen the company's methodology works.
"For Wooboard, we are about to close a $100,00 round of funding, because the investors know us," he says. "Fast access to capital is the key. If [Spreets founder] Dean McEvoy had to go through a 12-week due diligence cycle, it would have been over before it started."
These activities have not gone unnoticed and the company has considered franchising its model, with Liubinskas confident the world could support Pollenizers in two or three other locations.
But that growth won't be automatic.
"Post-Spreets, people have come to us and said you are a very efficient incubator. But we want to get better at starting businesses. We want stronger teams, stronger founders and stronger businesses."
"The same 80 people we have now can produce another 30 businesses in the next two years." |

Others have speculated that life on Earth arrived when a meteorite crashed into the planet in a process known as panspermia. The problem with this theory is that it still doesn’t explain how life BEGAN and just moves the problem to some other remote place.
Since modern man dates back 200,000 years to Africa, I’m more curious as to why it took us so long to fly. It was only rather recently, on Dec. 17, 1903, that two brothers from Dayton, Ohio – Orville and Wilbur Wright – rose into the air in Kitty Hawk, N.C., and descended 120 feet further than the take-off point. Wilbur had tried first and stalled, but Orville took the controls and set off into a strong wind with Wilbur steadying the wingtip running alongside.
A lot has been written about “locomotion,” with the flight of birds being the most interesting … and the Pterosaur from 100 million years ago especially so. With a wingspan of 16 feet and weighing a mere 22 pounds, it was able to dominate eastern England by staying aloft for extended periods on rising warm-air currents … presumably as a hovering predator.
This theory has since been dismissed since Earth didn’t have these inputs available that early.
Personally, each time I see pictures of Earth taken from space – this astonishing blue orb suspended in space – it reminds me just how insignificant we are. Relative to the enormity of the ever-expanding universe, we live on a truly remarkable piece of real estate. I hope we can maintain the balance Lovelock identified. Moving isn’t an option … yet. |

en | N/A | N/A | You may be wondering: How long will stamped concrete last? t your slab. After all, you probably already know the cost of installing and maintaining your stamped concrete. But what happens when you need to repaint or resurface your slab? Here are some tips for keeping your slab looking beautiful for years to come! Read on to learn more!
When you install stamped concrete, you will enjoy minimal maintenance and reduced costs. It can last decades when installed properly. There are also many advantages of stamped concrete. The imprinted designs do not crack or grow weeds. And anys. But even if you do not have time to maintain your stamped concrete, you should still use concrete sealers to protect it from the elements. You can also consult a contractor to add a protective layer during the installation process.
Sweeping the surface of your stamped concrete regularly will r leaf blower to clean away debris. You should also clean the surface thoroughly with a wet mop. Make sure to change the water throughout the process. If necessary, use alkaline degreaser to remove any oil stains or greasy substances that might damage your stamped concrete. After cleaning, it is important to let it dry before applying any sealants.
Sealing is essential for stamped concrete because it gives it a glossy finish and makes the colors vibrant. In addition, it protects your concrete from freeze-thaw cycles. To maintain the beauty of your stamped concrete, you should reapply the sealer every few years. Then, re-antique the surface if you notice any spots. These are not permanent marks, but they can damage the surface. However, if you notice that some spots remain, you can remove them with a solvent.
Price of stamped concrete
Stamped concrete is not as inexpensive as other types of concrete, and a good contractor will charge a premium for his or her services. Stamped concrete requires special tools and mixers. Since concrete is solid once it’s been mixed, it’s difficult to move the material and spread it with a trowel. Tools for spreading and pouring concrete can only be used a few times before they become useless. In addition, a high-end design can be incredibly complex, and it can take an artist to create one.
The price of stamped concrete varies, depending on the size of the wall, the design, and the color scheme. The basic designs fall in the lower end of the price range, while more complex designs are more expensive. Stamped concrete provides all the benefits of standard concrete, with the added benefit of being more attractive. It’s also less expensive to install than other paving materials, so it’s worth exploring its benefits. However, it’s not for everyone.
A standard 12-by-12-foot wall can cost anywhere from $1700 to $4200. However, if you want to emboss an existing concrete wall with a specific design, you’ll need to spend between $7 and $12 per square foot.resurface the concrete wall yourself, which may cost less than installing it. The cost of labor for a small wall will vary greatly, depending on how complex the design is and whether or not you’re planning on constructing a larger-scale project.
Cost of resurfacing stamped concrete slab
If you want to add a new layer of color, texture, or pattern to your concrete slab, you should consider resurfacing it. Although you can go with plain concrete, it is not as visually appealing as stamped concrete. Stamped concrete is often more expensive than its plain counterpart. The process of stamping requires workers to work with the concrete while it is still wet. This can make the process more difficult and cost you more money.
If your slab is already damaged, you may be able to save some money by using coloured concrete or a stenciled overlay. These methods can create a decorative surface without the need to repair or remove the existing concrete. However, they can be costly, ranging from $900 to $5,700 for a standard stamped concrete slab. This option requires the use of high-quality paints or concrete sealantsDepending on the type of overlay you choose, the cost of resurfacing a concrete slab may range from $5 to $25 per square foot. Whether you opt for a decorative or stamped overlay will determine the final price. Nonetheless, a worn-down concrete surface will dec A new resurfaced concrete slab will improve the look of your property. The cost of resurfacing varies based on where you live and the amount of material you will need. |

en | N/A | N/A | Kai Emil Holm (født 4. marts 1896 i Lemvig, død 10. juli 1985) var en dansk skuespiller og biografdirektør.
Han var tapetserer og gennemgik Det kongelige Teaters elevskole 1922-1924. Herefter gik han på Skole- og Fritidsscenen 1925-1926.
Siden hen optrådte han bl.a. på Det Ny Teater, Folketeatret og Det kongelige Teater. Han var direktør for Friluftsteatret på Bellahøj 1939-1940. Holm indspillede en række film, oftest i usympatiske roller.
Samtidig med sin karriere som skuespiller var han biografdirektør for Toftegaard Bio 1938–50 og leder af World Cinema 1950–70. Under Besættelsen var han med i modstandsbevægelsen og lod en militærgruppe ledet af senere statsminister Anker Jørgensen opbevare et stort våbenlager i biografens lokaler. Ved Gribskov modtog den illegale gruppe våben og ammunition, som på lastbiler blev kørt til hovedstaden. Fra Valby blev våben distribueret til små depoter på privatadresser.
Holm blev 1964 æresmedlem af Dansk Skuespillerforbund. Han modtog Blicherprisen 1965 og Martin Andersen Nexø Legatet 1969. Han blev Ridder af Dannebrog i 1951 og i 1954 både Ridder af 1. grad af Dannebrog og ridder af den norske Sankt Olavsorden og svenske Vasaorden.

Asked Leach about that after the game, “Both did a good job and competed every week and they’re both very important parts of the rotation.” Based on that, think they feel good about either playing that role.
JFMCOUGS (Guest): Why do we have the slowest receiver returning punts?
Sep 5, 10:37 AM
srchat (Admin): Because he won’t drop ‘em? But you’re right, not the most explosive guy the Cougars could have out there…
Sep 5, 10:38 AM
RememberTheName (Guest): Riley Krenz, the best that never was…
srchat (Admin): OK, anyone have some bold predictions/hot takes for this weekend’s game?
Uncle Larry (Guest): Cougs DO NOT win by 34.5 points.
srchat (Admin): More than 34.5? Less than 34.5?
Sep 5, 10:40 AM
Uncle Larry (Guest): 42 to 17.
Sep 5, 10:41 AM
srchat (Admin): Believe we saw Jackson in the Wyoming game. Am almost positive he was the WR in motion when the Cougars ran Big Gulp Left, though he’s not listed on the participation report. But yes, think all three will get in — Calvin Jackson before the others.
Uncle Larry (Guest): But no one will be awake to see the final score as the Cougs will put it to bed by end of 3rd. 8 pm start
srchat (Admin): Then ideally my game story is also finished by the end of the third.
Sep 5, 10:46 AM
Guest7156 (Guest): They win by more…if SJSU gets punched in the mouth early they’ll have a tough time finding the mental toughness or self belief to keep fighting
srchat (Admin): This tends to happen, especially when you’re on the road.
Whitworth-Coug (Guest): Didn’t see that Calvin Jackson got any snaps vs. WY??
Sep 5, 10:48 AM
srchat (Admin): As I’d mentioned, I’m almost positive he was the WR in motion during Big Gulp Left. Here’s a link to the play, look for No. 85.
Guest1064 (Guest): you think we see the Big Gulp formation again this weekend?
Sep 5, 10:50 AM
srchat (Admin): I think so. Seems like it might be a good game to test the different options out of that formation. Runs a 4.4 Mike knowing his personal and using it to his advantage
Sep 5, 10:51 AM
srchat (Admin): Or possibly a snap to Minshew, then a pass to Jackson on a wheel route.? Or someone like Coach Klein?
Sep 5, 10:53 AM
srchat (Admin): Leach didn’t indicate if he’d played football or not, but sounds like someone with a deep-rooted appreciation for the game. And clearly someone who knows a thing or two about X’s and O’s.
srchat (Admin): During Monday’s presser, Leach said to check back in Wednesday. Wasn’t sure if the Microsoft guy would want his name revealed.
Sep 5, 10:54 AM Cougs looked bigger and faster on TV.
Sep 5, 10:55 AM
srchat (Admin): Yes, and I wasn’t sure that would be the case as physically-imposing and experienced as I’d heard Wyoming would be. I thought the Cougars definitely won in the trenches and wasn’t certain they’d be able to. us?
Sep 5, 10:56 AM
srchat (Admin): Through a common friend, it sounds like. But if you have any great ideas, I’d be happy to pass them along.
Sep 5, 10:57 AM
Whitworth-Coug (Guest): Was there any thoughts during the Presser about Max’s “fumble” that was a weird play.
Sep 5, 10:58 AM
srchat (Admin): Borghi thought his knee was down, so did Leach. It appeared that way on the television in the press box, too. Fastest LB we have, took home hardware in CA 100 meter and 4 x 100…
Sep 5, 10:59 AM
srchat (Admin): It’s obviously tough to crack a rotation with Pelluer, Woods, Sherman, Fa’vae, Rogers, etc. But perhaps he gets some time in the second half of Saturday’s game.
Uncle Larry (Guest): Maybe it is former Microsoft and it is Paul Allen and he contacted Leach cause Pete Carroll said no way on his play ideas.
Sep 5, 11:00 AM
srchat (Admin): Paul Allen’s feeding Mike Leach plays. Our best live chat hot take of the year so far. Love it.s? Or is it more play call determined?
srchat (Admin): I think RB coach Eric Mele is the one who determines this and pretty sure it’s not play call-based.
Guest1568 (Guest): What is the cougs record come 1st pack 12 game?
srchat (Admin): 3-0
Sep 5, 11:02 AM
srchat (Admin): Hopefully my boss, an Eastern Washington alum, doesn’t see this.

Jim Duquette thinks the Cubs are one of five teams that took the biggest step forward and could be “the most fun team to watch in baseball.” The Cubs “grabbed the baseball world’s attention by convincing” Jon Lester to sign with the team. And Duquette likes the way the front office bolstered its roster with Jason Hammel, Miguel Montero and Dexter Fowler. But it’s the kids that should be the difference with “the presence of dynamic young position playerddison Russell.”
In response to Jesse Sanchez’s report Friday night that Yoan Moncada received the necessary clearance from the government to sign with a team, Ben Badler reported Saturday morning that Moncada cannot sign with a team yet. Major League Baseball is “the hurdle and will not let him sign.”
According to Ben Badler, MLB sent “another memo to teams explaining that their policy for now remains the same, and to hold off on signing Cuban players until they figure out how to proceed.” The memo teams received clearly indicated in bold type according to Ben Badler, “do not enter into agreements with Cuban players until you receive further notice from the Commissioner’s Office.”
Yoan Moncada and several of the Cuban players including Andy Ibanez and Hector Olivera received notification from OFAC that the government “considers them to be unblocked but ”
Passan explained, “Baseball is seeking clarification from OFAC and other governmental offices to ensure it is protected in case Cuban players in the future use forged documents, achieve residency through illegal means of somehow run afoul of the law, which the league worries would expose it to prosecution under the Trading With the Enemies Act.”

This too is my opinion. If the LAAS is continuously characterized as abusive, incompetent, uncaring, rude, etc., it tends to reinforce personnel's atttiudes that the public is the enemy. In addition, if the public looks on the shelters as "Deathcamps," it certainly would dissuade the average adopter, except out of guilt, in order to prevent another animal from being killed. Guilt is not a strong motivator.
This is a time for cheering, not jeering. The hatemongers, as I call them, are preventing the community from coming together in joyful celebration of the success already being achieved, let alone the obviously upward trajectory.
New York -- The "Prove it to Me" State
During the time Rudy Guiliani was Mayor of New York City, our municipal animal shelter system, the Center for Animal Care and Control (CACC), was drastically underfunded, resulting in 78% of impounded animals being "euthanized."
Guiliani had tendency to place political cronies in roles of Directorship and Board Memberships of CACC, rather than those with any experience in shelter management. There was little volunteerism, few, if any attempts to reach out to the public community and generally, a poor quality of uncaring staff employed at CACC.
Primarily, the CACC operated as a kind of clandestine operation in remote or undesirable areas of the city, where animals were taken to die. Typical CACC "euthanasia"(kill) stats were over 45,000 animals a year while Guiliani was Mayor.
It had long been the practice of the ASPCA (which formerly ran animal control in New York City until the early 90's) and CACC management to justify all the killings by trying to claim most of the animals were "old, sick or vicious strays." Such was an outrageous distortion of truth!
The typical cat coming into CACC was a young adult, friendly animal usually given up from a home for reasons like "moving," "allergies" or Grandma died." The average dog was a medium-sized, young mixed-breed usually given up for typical puppy behaviors (such as high energy level, chewing or housebreaking issues). Of course many dogs of all types and breeds also came into the CACC shelters for "moving," "allergies" or something happening to the owner such as "illness, eviction, divorce or arrest."
Unfortunately, many people also lie when bringing animals to shelters by saying the pet is a "stray" because they don't want to answer questions or give an owner-relinquish donation. This results in misleading "stray" vs. "owner surrender" stats, as well as little information on individual animals. Nevertheless, the indisputable fact was (and is) that most of the cats and dogs dying in our shelters were (and are) former pets.
Those of us in the NYC animal community worked hard to bring the truth to the public via media campaigns, petitions, political pressure and even demonstrations. We were lucky to get one City Council member on our side. Democrat, Katherine Freed ran an investigation of how the CACC was operating and was successful in getting City Council hearings and exposure. Still, when all was said and done, nothing had significantly changed at CACC until a new administration, under Mayor Mike Bloomberg took over leadership of the city early in 2002.
Though not an "animal lover" per se, it seems Bloomberg had the smarts to delegate much of the responsibility for animal control and sheltering to those with actual experience in the field. In effort to "get the animal people off his back," Bloomberg supported an initiative to organize many in the rescue community together to work in concert with the city shelter system in what was to be called, "The Mayor's Alliance" for New York City Animals.
Of course the Mayor had little (or really, nothing) to do with this new fledging organization. However, the name endorsement seemed to make it easier to secure a 15 million dollar grant donation through "Maddie's Fund" -- a special fund originated in California by some wealthy benefactor to help save shelter animals and strays nationwide whose communities were making a bonified effort to neuter animals and lower kill numbers in shelters.
After attending one early meeting, I decided not to sign NYCA up to be a member of the "Mayor's Alliance" for several reasons.
But, to me, it didn't matter, the reasons. I just knew I didn't want to be part of something that was, to me, "part of the problem" of deception to the public, rather than its solution. I did not sign up to be a member of the Mayor's Alliance and in so doing, I realized I was probably cutting off means of various support or even funding. -- Funding that could help save more animals.
It was a tough decision with no easy "right or wrong" answer. Still, it was my experience, (particularly at Petco) that when one "sells out" one principle, it generally leads to more. Moreover, in cases of large, money-raising events, drives and grants, it is usually the bigger, well established organizations that get most of the financial support. Rarely, does it "trickle down" to the smaller groups.
Was the choice not to join the Alliance a good or bad decision? Three years later, I can't say for sure. NYCA has managed to survive, but definitely with more struggle. I sometimes feel regret or even guilt from the standpoint of not doing all I could have to save more animals. But, at the same time I can look myself in the mirror and feel that, if nothing else, I can be honest and direct with the public and with myself.
I am not limited by someone else's "rules," plans, perspectives, events, or corporate "Public Relations." I have better control over how our animals are properly cared for and the homes they eventually go to. Yes, it is harder this way, and the bulk of responsibility falls on myself. As a small organization with limited budget and volunteers, there are many pitfalls to be aware of and look out for;probably the biggest one being taking on more animals than what the group can responsibly and humanely care for. Perhaps the hardest and yet, most important task an animal rescue person has to learn, is the ability and strength to say, "no." (especially in New York -- a place whose people don't readily take "no" for an answer.) We're not God and we can't save the world. We can only save on animal at a time.
Rather than look back and "regret" those decisions made for better or worse (depending on one's point of view), it is ultimately best I feel, to take everything as "learning experience" and move on with the cards and path one has been dealt or chosen. Ultimately, most decisions have their "up" and "down" sides.
In keeping with Mayor Bloomberg's tendency to "delegate responsibility" to experienced people, finally, towards the end of 2003, Ed Boks was hired as the new Director of CACC. The name of the shelter system was also changed around that time to "Animal Care and Control," but I can't say whose decision that was or precisely why. Boks came with both shelter Directorship experience and a rather impressive record for lowering euthanasia stats at the Animal Care and Control shelter in Maricopa, Arizona.
About six months following his official taking over the helm at "AC&C" in 2004 I requested a meeting with Ed Boks. Boks was a slim, attractive man who appeared to be in his mid or late forties with neatly trimmed grayish beard and hair. He had a wide smile, grand ideas and plans about the future of AC&C -- and an incurably optimistic air about him.
After sitting me down in a conference room at the AC&C's administrative offices in downtown New York with several high level AC&C staffers, Boks presented the latest AC&C newsletter along with some other papers denoting improved adoption percentages for AC&C.
"I at AC&C and how in just a few months we have brought down the euthanasia numbers!" he beamed to me.
Boks, like Jane Hoffman, had been very articulate in publicly expressing his goals that New York become a "no kill" city, though he was less verbal about putting a timeline date on the ideal. I told Boks that I primarily had problems with the "no kill mantra," not because I didn't also share the goal, but because I didn't see it as being "realistic" at any point in the predictable future.
"People are being led to think we are no kill already, and that isn't true!" I added. Boks answered that it was important that the shelter present a "positive image" to the public in order to gain more support and to encourage people to adopt from the shelters.
"Nobody wants to come to a place that they think is depressing or primarily kills animals." Boks answered with sincere conviction. "By presenting a more positive agenda and goals, by renovating and creating more inviting and cheerful accommodations, by participating in more off-site events, we are attracting many more adoptions and volunteers. Our adoptions are way up!"
"Again, I agree with you on that, Mr. Boks and commend the changes. But, I am worried that too many people are not getting the truth and will drop off more animals at the shelters thinking the animals are all getting adopted. Many people don't realize how serious the overpopulation problem really is. Is there incentive for them to neuter pets if they think we have homes for all animals? Its one thing to say one has a 'goal' for no kill, its another thing to intimate that we have already solved all the problems."
It was obvious that Ed Boks and I hadHe preferred to look at the glass as "half full" and focus on the positives. I tended to focus on the problems which still plagued the shelters and were serious barriers, in my view, to the goal of "no kill."
When it became apparent that Ed Boks and I were not going to agree on exactly what should be said publicly about the animal control and sheltering situation in New York, I decided to switch strategies.
"I'd like to discuss better identification of dog and cat breeds as this will help better to place more animals," I finally said. This was something Ed Boks was in agreement with and eager to discuss. For the remainder of the meeting, we focused on practical problems and how better to solve them. Boks requested that I spend some time at the Manhattan shelter to help new staffers better recognize cat and dog breed types.
All in all, the meeting with Ed Boks and other staffers was a positive one, resulting in some common shared goals and plans, if not perfectly shared perspectives. I came away from the meeting thinking that Ed was very well intentioned, dedicated and visionary, but a little naive and overly optimistic about what to fully expect in running the animal control shelter in New York City.
I didn't know the people in Arizona. But, New York is well known for it skepticism and distrust of things that are new, unknown or seem "too good to be true." If Missouri is the "Show Me" state, New York is the exacting, "Prove it to Me," state.
I wondered if the shelter in Maricopa, Az, where Ed Boks came from, had the same problems we had in New York with overbreeding and dumping of Pit Bulls? I wondered if the Arizona City had a large "melting pot" population of people who came from countries all over the world? Countries where, in many cases, "spay/neuter" had never been mentioned, let alone practiced?
Take an optimist and a pessimist and the truth (reality) can usually found between the two extremes. It wasn't a case of Ed Boks or me being "right" or "wrong," but simply looking at the glass from different vantage points. We had to find the things we agreed upon and work from there.
Almost a year and a half from that initial meeting, many, many good changes have indeed occurred at AC&C under Bok's positive direction. Professional and more caring staffers. Many more volunteers and adoption "events." Better care of the animals. Better breed descriptions. Better working and cooperation with rescue, particularly with the help and cooperation of The Mayor's Alliance. There are, in fact, more positive changes than what can be detailed here.
The euthanasia numbers have gone way down in New York City's animal control shelters, but sadly they still exist. Roughly about 40 to 50 cats and dogs currently die everyday at AC&C shelterMost of the dogs are "Pit" or "Shepherd" mixes," most of the cats, somebody's lost or abandoned pet.
As of this writing, New York is not "no kill in 2005." Nor, can it be, in my view until we solve our Pit Bull and cat overpopulation/abandoning problems. But, we are very slowly getting near the goal. The truth, again being in the middle of "optimism and pessimism." New York again being the exacting, "Prove it to Me" state.

Introduction: the (world's/universal/cosmic) construction and its cohesion
They recognised a path of easily observable groups of stars along which the sun, measured against the seasons, moved. They gave them names, in case seafarers had not done so already, and divided that trajectory in twelve parts, the zodiac, for measuring. They observed and understood the two equinoxes (when day and night are equal) and, thanks to many centuries of observation, also its precession, the backward movement within the zodiac.
But why in twelve parts? We can only guess about that, but it is a fact that people, e.g. pyramid-builders, played with several different bases and mostly triangular sides. Mathematics is an ancient discipline and I am convinced that twelve was the deliberate starting point. In part 2 of the structure-line I introduced some tentative starting points with the 3 times 4 principles or preconditions as the basis for the structure. That seems to prove itself in practice.
The ground ruThe basis principles:
- core notions or qualities are spread over twelve (×2/3/5) domains,
- which leads to six levels or types of RELATIONS of increasing complexity,
- which are characteristic of a specific SPACE and TIME,
it links these unique properties with the occasion of that moment,
it lays down the capacities and duration of the event in relation with material/immaterial environments in a material/immaterial function or purpose.
Due to this mutuality the individual's responsibility, shared with environments, and its free will are confirmed, and the authority of the law is left intact, in spite of nebulosity.
NB The description of the foundation presented in Animation 1 is complete and self-correcting in the sense that the different types of relations confirm the correctness of the positioning of the core notions, or not.
The version presented here is based on general and humane notions and suitable as basis for the description of processes with a general purpose. For a specialised scientific version, for instance the structure of psychology, a balanced whole with general and appropriate technical notions would have to be put together.
It has recently been confirmed that "gravity has no intrinsic reality", that "the speed of light is not invariable, not 'real', but disappears in the frame of reference of the light itself", that "the observer in one universe is the observed in the other universe" and that "the properties of any particle, any object, are determined by all the other objects in the universe" [ sources ].
The processes in the animations 2, 3 and 4 provide a clear representation of both the in spacetime invariant point of view (the unique qualities) of the observer (participant or occasion), and also the world of quantum relations which coordinates the individual development of the task. The change of viewpoint back and forth between dynamic interaction and dialectic consideration or character distinguishes the two central means for the development of processes. These varying viewpoints are designated in the backgrounds of the first five animations.
Animation 1. FOUNDATION of all there is:
12 principles, 6 levels/types of relations

/ readjusting \
determination > developing

Animation 2. FUNCTION & OWN WORLD viewpoint:
a process in interaction
From the actual need, from either its environments or contexts or from the player itself, the character of that actual world which perfectly fits the purpose will be chosen, and it will be decided when the activity can start.
There is a choice, there is a unique process.
Activity arises; there is a related, mutually determinating and coordinating process.
A process can be: an actual occasion (e.g. cycle, a part of:), an individual process (person, tree, part of:), a society (correspondence, similarity) [ note ].
Planets, moons and other large objects and groupings in space, are consequently also unique processes which develop the qualities they have received and exercise tasks within environments, bringing their own character, influence and function into the constantly changing relations with larger unities. They have a strong individual character which is, moreover, determined by both the character of their own domain in the zodiac and their variable mutual relations.
In this second animation a process realises itself: a determined and determining female participant with a given task and capacities, within her own world of spacetime and quantum relations mutually co-ordinating with varying environments, gradually experiences her history.

From earth we see, against the background of the universal spacetime structure (2.1), the solar organism's structure with its continuously changing positions of planets and other objects (2.2) in its gravitational field.
The earth turns, supplying every place on earth with its own coordinates of unique spacetime. When a new process or cycle presents itself it combines with the coordinates of that specific place and time and gets provided with its own spacetime characteristics, its individual capacities. This unique point of orientation of space and time (where the north/south line (2.3), which also indicates time, crosses the east/west line) is called the Ascendant (2.4) [see structure line #13: orientation on the rotating earth]. The Ascendant is the origin of the 12 phases of the process.
It plays, and all the while it discovers its place.
Animation 3. UNIQUE PROCESSES:
This series consists mainly of (birth) data which are used as examples in the pattern line, and of some well documented historical events. It starts with Albert Einstein who, as it happens, begins from his physical existence, the fourth principle.info on/off:
AO = Actual Occasion (different from a process which develops in the course of time).
The Ascendant indicates, as it appears, the start of a process or an actual occasion: its presence in time. The also visible, clearly present, purpose of the process, its "raison d'être", is the function, or group of functions, with the greatest influence within the whole process in which the references come together.
At present the reference pattern is, as far as I know, seldom used in astrological practice, probably because it offers less reliable information if coupled with one of the constructed systems (with unequal houses). Applied within the phase structure of the process, however, it provides valuable information, as the two versions in this animation #3 (from function in domain to function) and those in the pattern line (from phase/working area to function) show.
Animation 4. DEVELOPMENT in TIME:
the role of phases and their character* 14 15 * info on/off:
Here we can see the personal change within the original pattern of connection. The pattern of reference has thus been joined into a whole and the 9th phase (development, product) has come in contact with memory and the (un)digested experiences in the phases 3, 4, 5, 11 and 12. Both the development of the own nature and the progress of the mental and physical development are rendered in the pattern.
SCENDANT, 2 animations
Having developed the twelve principles/basic preconditions, it seemed an obvious choice to use this circle as the basis and to link it to the Ascendant, as can be seen in the animations 2, 3 and 4. This is in contrast to the house system with the signs of the zodiac in the background, which is in common use in astrology. This also shows more clearly the character of the starting point of the process and the relations and references between its parts/principles.
Animation 5. REFERENCE PATTERNS:
the unequal progress of the Ascendantfo:
In the course of the day the phases of the process also move: thereby the activity of the functions etc. changes accordingly. See above, Animation 4.
Animation 6. The TURNING TILTED Earth:
its effect above the polar circles
In connection with the information of the patterns in animation #4 I thought it might be interesting to study the differences at the (northern) polar region. That would also round off the series of animations in the zines #9 and #13. It led to the following curious surprise.
NB: the central block at the left is the view from above, the block at the right is the side-view (after a quarter turn) of the globe;info:
The earth rotates regularly around its north/south axis; the indicator of time (MC or Medium Coeli) needs 24:00 hours to complete the ±360° towards the beginning of the next day. The earth itself, like the other objects, has its own spacetime characteristics and function within the framework of this solar organism.
As a rule a foetus, the unborn entity, decides for itself, at its own time, to close the connection with the mother. By closing the blood supply it severs the food and oxygen supply. So, after this the little entity must begin to breathe and by that become a baby. This can happen before the delivery but also a considerable time after birth, as the 'dead baby in the box' (Asuncion, Paraguay, August 6 2013 'baby born prematurely'), who seemed to have come to life anyway four hours later, has clearly established. By deciding for itself (together with the environment, evidently not alone the physician) the moment of breathing it becomes a determining being (participant), with determined qualities in spacetime. It finds itself in disorderly but actually coordinating (deterministic) environments, which forces it to take responsibility and achieve for itself its personal freedom, and by that to wittingly or unwittingly exercise its task.
The purpose of a process, humane or constructed, is its share in the development within a broader framework, is its reason for existence. That purpose can only then be consciously handled and experienced if the person has been able to develop a clear and genuine self-image. Although behaviour, including mental behaviour, is affected and determined by environments, mental freedom remains a personal accomplishment.
Processes in development unwittingly and invariably raise reactions from the environment which there and then presents itself. Such an 'accidental' situation, the occurrance of apparent goodluck and misfortune or of serious interventions which not only children and adults convoke and experience but where also old and new, carefully established, systems and plans are persistently troubled by and take advantage of, is called an "Actual Occasion".
All this leads to the conclusion that each process, be it a human, mass or problem, experiences and completes not only these actual occasions but also the contacts with different societies (aggregates of processes) of which it is a part. The contacts between the three distinguished types run via their own phases of development each in its own way, individual in spacetime and universally related.
I am convinced that the universe as a whole is an organism which develops naturally. It experiments with systems and constructs, explores limits, and collides with the fact that there are no absolutes, that everything has two sides. Changing environments do set their own changing limits.
Insight in and knowledge of the circumstances of a process and consequently the chance whether an individual process will be able to fulfil the desired goal or required conditions depends on the possibility to ascertain the Ascendant(s).

en | N/A | N/A | Sorry, long day, the feet tried to abandon ship sometime around 6, and the back has decided to say hateful things every time I try to lean to the left.
But the monumental pile of amazing pearls is priced. We were going to take their picture, but after pricing them and putting them in their box, we were too tired to take them out again. So you’ll just have to trust me, there are some truly amazing pearls, for unbelievable prices. Imagine the champagne stick pearls that look gold dusted. That’s what they look like. And coins in a glowing chocolate and other colors.
Also priced are the incredible new cuts of emerald, quartz, sapphire, and topaz. New multi-faceted cut cubes, onion cuts, and twisty cool things. I can’t begin to describe them, and my photography skills are not up to the task. Just be prepared to get light-headed on Preview night.
We got a lot more today, but I’m going to collapse now.
Tomorrow is the last day, we leave for home as soon as we finish shopping. Or when we run out of room in the truck. That’s getting to be a concern, the boxes were all stacked together when we came here, and filled up they take up more space. I may have to share the back seat with suitcases and tubs!
Onion cuts? What are onion cuts??
Maybe the cutest things EVER??? Clear stones that look like teeny onions – roundy with a flattish bottom and pointy top with lots of facets for maximum sparkle. |
en | N/A | N/A | Several members of the men’s cross-country team were allegedly involved in a hazing incident on the Lawrenceville campus.
On Sept. 5 at 9:25 p.m., Public Safety was dispatched to the outside track complex, where officers noticed several backpacks and clothing on the ground. The officers exited their vehicle and found two naked males, who approached the officers.
The two were identified as Rider students, and Public Safety found out there were others naked in the area as well. The officers looked through the backpacks and found alcoholic beverages, of which several students took ownership.
It turned out the individuals were members of the cross-country team, who had gathered to run naked around the track. Several members of the team have been charged with alcohol violations and hazing.
The students charged have been referred to the Office of Community Standards, and Head Coach Bob Hamer was notified. Hamer took action by suspending practice during the investigation and handed out his own sanctions for violating team rules. No one was injured in this incident.
Two sexual assault claims on campus in two-week span
A reported sexual assault took place on Friday, Sept. 11 in West Village B at 3:15 a.m. An unidentified white male entered an unlocked apartment and touched a female visitor who was sleeping in the common area. Once the female awoke, the suspect fled. He is remaining unidentified and at large.
A second report of sexual assault occurred on Friday, Sept. 18, in Poyda residence hall. Lt. Joseph Amodio, Lawrence Township police, said that case was deemed unfounded.
Vickie Weaver, director of public safety, explained that a Rider Alert was not issued for the second sexual assault incident because the person of interest was in police custody.
“The first [sexual assault incident] was through the Rider Alert because at that time we had information that led us to reasonably believe that a sexual assault had taken place and we did not have the suspect in either police custody or with us [Public Safety],” she said. “We had a person of interest [for the second case]…and was under the control of the police. Timely warnings are issued when there is a continuing threat to the community. And because this person was in our control, that threat was not there.” |

en | N/A | N/A | I took a right at the light by the Valdosta Mall entrance one day and noticed that the Moe's that had previously sat at the end of the strip mall had been replaced by Shane's Rib Shack. I laughed– my boyfriend commented that our friend Shane now had a namesake in town,ow, one day when Jennifer and were throwing around ideas for where to go for lunch, that the idea would resurface.

"Shane isn't about flash—he's about family, community and darn good food," it read. "So much so that he quit his highfalutin corporate job, dusted off Big Dad's (Shane's grandfather) secret recipe and enlisted his own family to make a dream come true."

Callings as Opportunities for Service
In the eyes of God, there is no calling in the kingdom that is more important than another. Our service—whether great or small—refines our spirits, opens the windows of heaven, and releases God’s blessings not only upon those we serve but upon us as well. When we reach out to others, we can know with humble confidence that God acknowledges our service with approval and approbation. He smiles upon us as we offer these heartfelt acts of compassion, especially acts that are unseen and unnoticed by others.8

Anything is possible?Really?
The helicopter buzzed. It had been a smooth journey so far, the sound of the machine hardly audible, but now I noticed it. Looking from the window, I saw that we had dropped – virtually skimming the thinning trees. We were approaching the suburbs – I’d seen the trees thin like this a thousand times. Soon to be replaced by dark canals, lakes and stacks of rundown warehouses…
I was reeling, trying to understand why I was in the transport with perhaps the most important people in the country heading for a disaster zone. Why me?’debatSheet rain had started.

This wouldn’t be the last time that something would try. After the architectural virus, the 13-upgrades, the bottled city…
Was there…Could the passion of his earlier snarl have softened slightly?
Well, yes, it could have been different – if the battles of Smallville and Metropolis documented in the film appeared in the comic, Superman would have been constantly dodging thought bubbles along the lines of: “must get this beast…away from the city, people…in danger.”
“The son of a radical, an agent of chaos. With no planet of his own, Earth is now his play thing. He is not thing short of a weapon”
My eyes widened, had I again won a point, a concession…

Credit default swap: example
Trushan Finance plc hedges the credit risk by entering into a 4-year credit default swap with a commercial bank.
Under the terms of the swap, each time Trushan Finance plc receives an interest payment from the consortium company, it pays a proportion of that interest to the bank. If, for example, the bank demands 0.5%, the company will pay a ‘premium’ equal to interest at 0.5% on the $300 million loan - or $375,000 per quarter ($300 million x 0.5% x 3/12).
The bank has therefore taken on Trushan group’s credit exposure, in return for a quite substantial stream of payments. In effect, the group has insured itself against any default on the loan to the consortium. </s> Governor Cuomo Announces $13.7 Million in Grants for Southern Tier Water Infrastructure $13.7 miacross the Southern Tier.

It’s no secret that the East Germans and the West Germans spied on each other. Like the characters in Antonio Prohías’ Spy vs. Spy cartoon strip, each side continually sought new ways to find out what the other side was up to. The listening post on the Teufelsberg in Berlin is an example of this. This U.S. facility was primarily intended as a first defense, in case radio chatter suggest some sort of mobilization with East German and Soviet troops. Talking to soldiers who worked there, the truth was far more prosaic. Most days were spent listening to discussions about what various SED officials were having for lunch. Teufelsberg was connected to other listening posts, most of which were hidden in forests in East Germany. These were small devices, easily concealed. Occasionally, they were discovered due to either equipment malfunctions or blind luck.
On both sides there was always a suspicion that some of these devices served a double duty that would become apparent in times of war. Radio Killer (Radiokiller) takes this concept and runs with it, creating an interesting and unique films that tells its story in a typically East German, low-key style. The film is a co-production of DEFA and DFF, and first appeared on television in May of 1980. As with most made-for-TV films, the budget was low, and it shows in the production.
The title suggests a film about a homicide—a serial killer that preys on his victims via a radio signals, à la Bela Lugosi’s Murder by Television, but, it’s nothing of the kind. The story starts when a fighter jet and a passenger plane suddenly find their communications channels jammed, and just barely avoid hitting each other. The source of the problem is traced to a signal that blocked all radio communication—the “Radio Killer” of the title. In this case, it wasn’t intentional sabotage, but a faulty circuit that caused the problem. Agents from the Ministerium für Staatssicherheit (better known as the Stasi), are unable to locate the signal’s exact location, but they figure that someone from the West will come along and fix the problem. That someone is a man named Vogel, who works for the Bundesnachrichtendienst—West Germany’s Federal Intelligence Service (usually abbreviated to BND). Vogel is shown developing a method to fix the delicate electronic underwater without getting them wet. The faulty circuit is located at the bottom of a lake, and the only way to fix it is for Vogel to work on it underwater, lest he be spotted. The rest of the film is a cat-and-mouse game between the Stasi and the BND.
The screenplay was written by East German author Harry Thürk, who, like Harold Robbins, specialized in writing books that were more popular with the general public than the critics. He also wrote the screenplays for the spy film, For Eyes Only and Rendezvous mit unbekannt (Rendezvous with the Unknown), an eleven-part TV series that presented actual stories from the early days of the Stasi. Clearly the man had a soft spot for MfS agents.
Fans of spy movies may find this one a little puzzling. All the intrigue occurs on a mental level, and no guns are drawn, or even appear in the film. The end goal, as far as the East German agents are concerned is to neutralize the threat of the Radio Killer without letting the West Germans know they’ve done so. For anyone raised on James Bond and The Man from U.N.C.L.E. this might seem awfully tame, but the film does a good job of keeping the tension high. It probably helps that Radio Killer is a very short film, coming in under 70 minutes.
Agent Achim Vogel is portrayed by Gojko Mitić, best known as East Germany’s number one Indian in their westerns. It is one of the few times we get to see Mitić as the bad guy (for more on Mitić, see Apaches and The Sons of the Great Bear). Schalker, the lead East German agent, is played by Erik S. Klein, an actor familiar to any fan of East German films. Klein appeared in several classic East German films, including Stars, The Second Track, and Naked Among Wolves. In the East German states, he is best remembered as the harried father in the TV mini-series Aber Vati! (But Dad!). After the Wende, offers to appear in films and TV dried up. Aside from one failed TV series, Klein didn’t show up on television again, even though you could have found him on the small screen in the GDR nearly any night of the week. Like many other actors, he turned to radio productions and to the stage (what a golden time for German theater the nineties must have been). He died in 2002.
Aside from a few films in late sixties, director Wolfgang Luderer worked almost exclusively in television, but was no stranger to the Krimi by the time he made this movie. He began his career directing episodes of Fernsehpitaval—a popular television series that featured reenactments of famous crimes. Although he hadn’t signed the protest letter against Wolf Biermann’s expatriation, and hadn’t suffered the punitive restrictions faced by the likes of Manfred Krug, Jutta Hoffmann, and Angelika Domröse, Luderer decided to leave the GDR in the early eighties. Within a couple years he was working in West German television and probably would have a long career in unified Germany as well if he hadn’t died in a car accident in 1995.
The cinematography is by Helmut Bergmann, and appears to have been shot in 16mm. Perhaps this was to save money, but it also helped match the stock footage of jet planes, and facilitate underwater filming. It also gives the film a documentary feel, which is effective here. While this film is, by no means, a classic, it is an excellent example of the topsy-turvy perspective a viewer from the west encounters when watching East German spy movies.

In 1968, Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey sent shock waves through the film world. While some complained about its nearly incomprehensible plot, everyone was impressed with the film’s technical achievements. It is not an overstatement to say that Kubrick’s film represented a quantum leap in special effects. The genre would never be the same again. The eastern bloc was particularly impressed with Kubrick’s film. This is partly because the Eastern Bloc saw science fiction as an extension of communist achievement, having made it into space first, but also because the genre offered filmmakers a chance to imagine a world on their own terms, without those wet blankets—the cold war, politics, and economic realities—getting in the way.
DEFA got off to a bang-up start in the science fiction department with Kurt Maetzig’s classic, The Silent Star, but this was an expensive film to make, and the GDR’s economy couldn’t take too many more films on that scale. After a subsequent lower-budgeted attempt to bring science fiction to the screen flopped (Der Mann mit dem Objektiv), the folks at DEFA shelved further sci-fi film projects in favor of cheaper, more topical subject matter. They still made fairy-tale films (Märchenfilme), crime films (Krimis) and a few musicals, but most other genre films were avoided or ignored. After the 11th Plenum, the winds of change shifted again at DEFA and genre pictures became fashionable again, most notably, with the Indianerfilme of Gojko Mitic. In 1970, Gottfried Kolditz, better known at that point as a director of musicals and fairy-tales, decided to create a space adventure using Kubrick’s film as a template, and Signals – An Outer Space Adventure (Signale – Ein Weltraumabenteuer) was born.
Signals starts when The Icarus— a research ship searching for signs of intelligent life in the universe—is destroyed by meteorites near Jupiter. When no signals are received from the Icarus, it is presumed lost, and attempts to retrieve it are abandoned. This doesn’t sit well with everyone, particularly Commander Veikko of the Laika and Pawel (Yevgeni Zharikov), a young pilot whose sweetheart is among the missing. While repairing unmanned space stations, the crew of the Laika continues to search for the missing Icarus, in spite of the official edict that the ship is lost.
DEFA created dozens of science fiction films, both for theaters and television (for a list of these, see Robert Gemmell’s comment post on the About page). Four feature films took place in outer space. Three of these (The Silent Star, Eolomea, and In the Dust of the Stars) are available as a set from First Run Features. The fourth is Signals, and while there is a version out in cyberspace that includes fan-authored subtitles, the film has not been officially released in United States. This is primarily due to the fact that the film was a co-production between DEFA and the Polish state film production company, Zespoły Filmowe, which means twice as much money and paperwork is needed to secure the film rights (there is an irony in private companies wrangling over the rights to communist films). Like Eolomea, Signals is slowly paced, and more cerebral than exciting, but it has its moments.1 The zero-gravity musical interlude is worth the price of admission, and the scene where Gojko Mitic and Alfred Müller play upside-down footsie on the beach is an amusing bit of homoerotic camp (I would say this is unintentional, but I’m not sure that it is: Terry and Konrad seem to have a very close relationship).
Signals is very loosely based on Asteroid Hunters (Asteroidenjäger), an East German science fiction novel by Carlos Rasch. Rasch’s Utopian space operas were popular in East Germany, but when the wall came down they, as with many other aspects of East German culture, were assigned to the “dustbin of history” (to use a phrase coined by Leon Trotsky). After the Wende, Rasch became a journalist, but returned to science fiction writing in 2009 with his Raumlotsen (Space Pilot) series.
According to Sonja Fritzsche in an article for German Studies Review, Kolditz fell ill during production and the project was taken over by its cinematographer, Otto Hanisch. This would explain a lot. The film lacks Kolditz’s usual pizazz, and seems more interested in the technical aspects of the special effects than the story. No doubt Hanisch was anxious to explore Kubrick’s film techniques for portraying rockets and zero gravity, but, unlike the 2001, Signals at least attempts to create back stories for the main characters (a common beef about the Kubrick film).
Every scene involving special effects inevitably must be compared to 2001, and inevitably Signals comes up short, particularly in the scenes involving spaceship docking and manoeuvring. To make such scenes believable requires that they be done slowly and deliberately, which doesn’t make for good entertainment. Kubrick’s solution was brilliant: he staged the scenes to Richard Strauss’ Blue Danube waltz, which turns them into elegant ballets of machines in space. In Signals, similar scenes seem rushed and end looking like exactly what they are: models on wires. When the exploration pods in Signals rotate in space, the music is not an elegant waltz, but weird calliope music, overlaid with the tick of a clock fed through an Echoplex. By itself, this music is interesting, but in conjunction with the visuals, the effect is too literal and not particularly exciting.
Better (or at least, wackier) use of music occurs in the aforementioned the zero-gravity exercise scene where the music—a cross between Esquivel and saxophone dance-hall music—offers a welcome relief from the drama that preceded it. As with several other Kolditz films, the music is by Karl-Ernst Sasse (see Her Third for more information on Sasse). In spite of my earlier criticisms about the use of music in the film, Sasse’s score is fun and strange. Like Erich Wolfgang Korngold, Max Steiner, and Hans J. Salter, Sasse was a classically-trained musician who composed for the movie industry to pay the rent. Unlike those musicians, however, Sasse was not averse to exploring schmaltzy pop music and pure noise as sources of inspiration. As a result, a cross-section of Sasse’s soundtrack music encompasses nearly every style imaginable, from dissonant percussion to fifties jazz. In Signals, his music is an unlikely combination of experimental and kitsch and definitely deserves a listen.
There is some evidence that suggests that Kolditz wasn’t happy with either Hanisch or the resulting film. After Signals, Kolditz and Hanisch didn’t work together again (Hanisch did film The Scout (Der Scout), which was started by Kolditz, but he died before it went into production). Kolditz shot two more science fiction films (In the Dust of the Stars and Das Ding im Schloß). For these, he turned to cinematographer Peter Süring. This is too bad, because Hanisch was a talented cameraman and he does some interesting work here. The camera swoops, zooms, and spins; and in one scene between Pawel and Veikko, it swings back and forth like a pendulum. Add to this some bizarre editing by Helga Gentz and you have a potent mix of abstract bedazzlement. As with many other DEFA technicians (Peter Süring and Helga Gantz included), Hanisch’s career effectively ended when the wall came down.
The costumes were designed by Günther and Marianne Schmidt. Again, the template here appears to be 2001. For the Kubrick film, Sir Edwin Hardy Amies, was chosen. Amies was an odd choice, He was better known as Queen Elizabeth’s favorite designer—hardly a bastion of futuristic style. For Kubrick’s film, Amies took his cues from sixties fashion (most notably the Austrian designer, Rudi Gernreich), tempered by the director’s desire for zero-gravity practicality. The Schmidts’ designs have a similarly mod look to them, but seem more forward-thinking. In fact, they bear a marked similarity to Bob Fletcher’s costume design in Star Trek: The Motion Picture; although it’s doubtful that Fletcher ever saw Signals.
I don’t doubt that Signals will eventually be released with English subtitles. While it is not as strong as In the Dust of the Stars, it is as good as Eolomea and deserve to be seen by a wider audience.
1. Slow pacing, cerebral content, and frequent scenes of people debating political and philosophical viewpoints are commonly associated with DEFA films. Of course, there is more to East German Cinema than this stereotype, but stereotypes have their roots in reality (at least, in commonly perceived reality).

Westerns in East Germany? At first glance, it seems like an absurd proposition, but, in fact, DEFA made twelve of these films during their forty years of existence. While it is easy to laugh at the idea of Germans and Yugoslavians pretending to be American Indians, is it any worse than what Hollywood had to offer with the likes of Sal Mineo, Ricardo Montalban, Jeff Chandler, and Victor Jory? In fact, Gojko Mitic, who starred in all 12 of DEFA’s westerns, was so well liked by Native Americans that he was made an honorary chief by the Sioux—an honor not likely to be bestowed on any of the American actors who specialized in Westerns.
By the last half of the sixties, the appreciation of westerns was waning in the United States. During the 1950s, they had been all the rage. Between 1950 and 1965, a staggering number of movies and television shows were produced, feeding the American public a constant stream of stories about the derring-do of the men of the old west. But the winds of change were upon us. The young people who had been spoon-fed shows such as Gunsmoke, Wanted Dead or Alive, Cheyenne, Sugarfoot, The Rifleman, and Rawhide were starting to learn the truth about America’s past, and it wasn’t pretty. What had once been seen as a tale of brave men and women fighting the elements and cut-throat savages to secure their place on earth was now recognized as a land grab by greedy white people at the expense of the Native Americans. While there had been films that were sympathetic to the American Indians (most notably, Cheyenne Autumn), they usually took the noble savage attitude and never question the free-for-all that was the colonization of the American West.
Around the same time, the Italians had discovered that they could make westerns that could compete favorably with anything Hollywood had to offer. Very few of these films were playing in the States (although it was filmed in 1964, A Fistful of Dollars wouldn’t reach the American cinemas until 1967, when it was shown with its sequel, For a Few Dollars More), but they were extremely popular throughout the rest of the world.
East Germany’s fist attempt at a western was The Sons of the Great Bear (Die Söhne der großen Bärin), a co-production with Yugoslavia’s Bosna Films. To play the lead, the Yugoslavian actor, Gojko Mitic, was chosen. Mitic had already made a name for himself as an actor/stuntman in several West German/Yugoslavian/Italian co-productions of films based on the novels of Karl May. May had never actually been to the American West, but that didn’t stop him from becoming the most popular writer of western fiction in Germany.
The people at DEFA had no interest in filming the stories of Karl May. His work was seen as anti-socialistic and was closely associated with Adolf Hitler, who considered May one of Germany’s greatest writers. Instead, they chose the East German Author, Liselotte Welskopf-Henrich’s book The Sons of the Great Bear. Unlike the works of Karl May, which took most of their cues from James Fenimore Cooper, (an east coast American writer whose knowledge of the American frontier was almost as limited as May’s) the protagonists of Welskopf-Henrich’s works were sharply defined by the actual injustices faced by the Native Americans at the hands of the white settlers. Like May and Cooper, Welskopf-Henrich’s knowledge of the west was mostly garnered from books. But unlike May and Cooper, she did some serious research into the tribal customs of the Dakota Sioux.
The Sons of the Great Bear is the story of Tokei-Ihto, a Dakota tribesman who is trying to keep the white men from stealing his tribe’s land. His arch-rival is Red Fox (Jirí Vrstála), a white scout who has taken part in Indian initiation rituals and pretends to be part-Indian when it suits his needs (although this is not explained in the movie). When it is discovered that there is gold on the tribe’s land, the government decides that it is time to relocate the Dakotas to someplace more favorable. Tokei-Ihto tries to convince his chief that the white men can’t be trusted, but the chief doesn’t listen, with predictable results.
As is often the case with movie translations into books, Liselotte Welskopf-Henrich was not happy with the finished film and asked to have her name removed from the credits (it wasn’t). Nonetheless, the film was a huge hit. While Hollywood did eventually follow suit with films such as Soldier Blue and Little Big Man, it was too little too late. The American public had been thoroughly indoctrinated to see the Indians as the bad guys and the cowboys as the good guys. Films that did not follow this formula didn’t stand a chance with the American public and westerns slowly started to disappear from U.S. cinemas just as the East Germany westerns (sometimes referred to as Osterns) were picking up speed. The Sons of the Great Bear is not the best of these, but it was the first and helped create a new career for Gojko Mitic. Mitic continued working after the wall came down, returning to the stories of Karl May as “Winnetou,” May’s most popular character, in a series of TV movies. |

The wall: that which keeps standinIn our example, what stopped something from happening could have been the removal of the policy from the minutes; it could have been the failure to notice this removal; but it wasn’t. It was the way in which those within the institution acted after the policy had been agreed. Agreeing to something can be another way of stopping something from happening.
A diversity policy can come into existence without coming into use. I noted earlier how a sign is often used to make a transition from something being in and out of use, such as in this case of the post-box. Institutions are also postal systems. Maybe the diversity worker deposits the policy in the post-box because she assumes the box is in use.
The post-box that is not in use might have another function
The policy becomes dusty, rather like Marx’s rusty sword; from rusty to dusty. A policy can become unusable by not being used.
Maybe she ends up feeling used up, limp, spent rather like this tube of toothpaste; with nothing left to give.
Or maybe she flies off the handle, to recall that broken cup.
The expression flying off the handle can mean to snap or lose your temper.
Another practitioner describes. The feminist killjoy, that leaky container, comes up here; she comes up in what we hear. W It way.
flow, flow, away we go, arrows, which give the would-be complainant a route through.
A complaint is not simply an outcome of a no, a complaint requires you to keep saying no along the way. And what is required to keep a complaint going – such as confidence and tenacity – might be what is negated by the very experiences that led you to complain.
If you do keep going with a complaint where do they end up? Thus I have received numerous accounts of complaints that are lodged and still nothing happens. Perhaps complaints sit there, rather like that diversity policy.
The post-box becomes a filing cabinet; a complaint is filed away. A woman of colour academic describes: “I was on the equality and diversity group in the university. And as soon as I started mentioning things to do with race they changed the portfolio of who could be on the committee and I was dropped.” I noted earlier that The word race might be used less because it does moreint.
Aired: even the air can be occupied.
Come in, come in: I think back to our post-box.
This image teaches us what is possible (3).
The birds could have been treated as trespassers, ejected or displaced. A history of use is a history of such displacements, many violent, displacements that often disappear because of how things remain occupied.
Just loosen the screw a little bit, a tiny, tiny little bit, and more and more will come out. It can be explosive what comes out. We need more explosions. Organisations will try and contain that damage. The response in other words is damage limitation. This is how diversity often takes institutional form: damage limitation. Happy shiny policies will be put in place, holes left by departures will be filled without reference to what went on before; a blot becomes something to be wiped up: mopping up a mess.
A leak can be a lead. A leak can be a feminist lead.
We do not want to polish away the scratches; they are testimony. Yes those scratches; we are back to those scratches. We can reach each other through what appears as damage, mere scratch and scribble.
This post is dedicated to my wonderful colleague and friend Rumana Begum. Thank you for helping me to keep going.

en | N/A | N/A | Over a decade, sensor research has proven the use of sensor networks for different use cases. The research has mostly focused on aspects of sensor network deployment, energy-efficiency, and wireless networking. Today, the focus is shifting from “How do we collect data?” to “What can we learn from the data and how do the models look like?” as more and more data becomes available. Especially urban applications – from people and car movement to building and environmental sensing – has been a constant driver of innovation over the past years, delivering an ever increasing amount of useful data. Even more data comes from participatory sensing as everyone collects data all the time. However, most of the data remains unused as the full potential of machine learning and data mining is yet to be utilized in all its strength.
Moreover, the challenges that come with urban sensor data for the design and application of learning algorithms are also not coped with sufficiently yet. Consequently, algorithms that are suited to the special needs this kind of data imposes such as missing values, unreliable measurements, missing calibration or high spatial diversity still need to be developed. Also, the architecture of systems, i.e., the complete data analysis pipeline from the collection of measurements to the final model is of interest.
Bringing together the sensor systems expertise from the Wireless Sensor Networks and Sensor Systems community with the knowledge available in the machine learning community, will open up a whole new set of applications and technical questions. SenseML will, therefore, promote work that on one hand concentrates on generating high quality data set, and on the other hand on applyyield highly accurate models. A special focus also lies on interpretable models such as rule sets or decision trees. Especially for sensor data, having interpretable models is of interest for discovering potential relationships in the sensor network. Proceeding this way, we expect to gain unique insights into sensor data and ideas for novel applications.
The workshop considers hot topics of both disciplines, novel ideas, in-progress work on system architecture (e.g., the data analysis pipeline), enabling technologies, and emerging applicationsBased on the number of submissions either as oral presentation or poster session).

en | N/A | N/A | The 10-year continues to drop in yield, however this is a global phenomenon. The German Bund is back below negative 50 basis points, and the Japanese Government Bond is back at 0%.
I know that with the current central bank intervention in the bond markets that interest rates don’t have the signal to noise ratio they usually have, but it certainly doesn’t appear that the US economy is set for a huge upswing in the second half of the year.
“The labor market recovery continues to exhibit uneven progress, but progress nonetheless. July payroll data reports a marked slowdown from the second quarter pace in jobs growth,” said Nela Richardson, chief economist, ADP. “For the fifth straight month the leisure and hospitality sector is the fastest growing industry, though gains have softened. The slowdown in the recovery has also impacted companies of all sizes. Bottlenecks in hiring continue to hold back stronger gains, particularly in light of new COVID-19 concerns tied to viral variants. These barriers should ebb in coming months, with stronger monthly gains ahead as a result.”
The Street is looking for 900,000 payrolls in Friday’s jobs report so there seems to be a sizeable disconnect between expectations and reality here.
Mortgage applications fell 1.7% last week as purchases and refis fell by basically the same amount. This is despite a 4 basis point drop in the mortgage rate. “Interest rates drifted lower globally last week, as markets assessed the latest concerns regarding the delta variant. 30-year mortgage rates dropped below 3 percent in our survey for the first time since this February, presenting an opportunity for many homeowners who have not yet refinanced to lower their rate and their payments. Refinance application volume slightly decreased, following an 11 percent jump last week,” said MBA Senior Vice President and Chief Economist Mike Fratantoni.
So far, it doesn’t appear that the adverse market fee is having much of an impact on refi volume, does it?
Figure, a blockchain fintech is merging with Homebridge. Figure is led by Mike Cagney, who founded SoFi. “Probably the most significant issue was we had this grand thesis that we could save 90 basis points of expense to originate securitized loans on a blockchain” Cagney told HousingWire in an interview in May.
Fannie Mae just reported earnings. Here are the prepared remarks. Fannie sees purchase volume reaching $1.8 trillion this year, and they expect refi volume to decrease as interest rates rise. They also see a 14.8% rise in house prices this year. |
en | N/A | N/A | High-rises – the importance of a solid foundation
Thanks in part to the invention of the working elevator by Elisha Otis in l852 and humankind’s willingness to dream, the ability to construct buildings higher and higher became more possible. Without Otis’s innovation over a century and a half ago, the rise in popularity for tall structures may have been delayed. The innovation was inevitable, but the reality brought
about an evolution in construction.
Gary Penk, Kryton international, London, UK
According to a report by Cathy Hawker in World Property Journal, cities only occupy 2% of the earth’s land mass, yet are home to 53% of the world’s population with experts predicting that figure will increase up to 75% by the middle of this century. People aren’t moving away from the cities, but instead towards them. For example, Canada’s largest city, Toronto, has more high rises under construction than any other city in the world, 50% more than second place New York. Toronto is also located in the second largest country in the world with one of the smallest population densities. Nevertheless, building out isn’t the option once believed to be the cure of over-populated city centres. Instead the discussion around the globe, as evidence by megastructures becoming commonplace and this century‘s so called ‘space—race’, is for cities to incorporate the growth in population by building upwards.
The current tallest building in the world, Dubai’s Burj Khalifa (828m), is reported to have used 45,000m3 of concrete to construct the all-important foundation and 330,000m* of concrete overall. Concrete, being the most used man-made product on the planet, is essential in the building of a high-rise. Concrete is strong, durable and when reinforced with steel, can sustain an incredible amount of strain, both tensile and compressive. However, in reaching for sustainability we must build these structures for the longest lifespan with the least amount of associated life-cycle costs.
Concrete is used so much because of its ability to be easily formed; it is readily available and also a durable product. To that end, it is also a major component in building a high-rise structure. For example, as stated earlier, the Bug Khalifa was built with a great deal of concrete, amassing over 110,000 tonnes. Other high-rises will experience similar numbers and indeed it is true to say that concrete will make up a vast amount of any given building — especially in the foundation.
This means that if a sustainable and resilient building is to be achieved, one with a lifespan that exceeds expectations, a concrete foundation must be built to be as durable as possible. Unfortunately, concrete does not come without its limitations. For instance, concrete may be formable, durable and have a high-compressive strength; however, there is evidence worldwide that concrete structures are deteriorating and unable to stand up to anticipated Iifespans.
Furthermore, when we mention concrete deterioration, in most cases it is caused through the transport of fluids through the concrete. Water continues to damage or completely destroy more buildings and structures globally than war or natural disasters. Thus, a waterproofing barrier must be used to ensure the foundation of a high—rise building, with its below-grade parking design, which is usually combating water pressure from all directions, is watertight.
Ensuring a waterproof concrete foundation
One of the options in concrete waterproofing is the surface-applied external membrane.
These waterproofing membranes form a barrier against water penetration, installed after the hardening of concrete. This membrane is used to ensure foundations, roofs, walls and basements are free from water ingress.
Unfortunately, the limitations of the externally applied membrane are numerous:
puncture damage is a risk
installation of a membrane is labour—intensive
valuable time and money will be diverted from the rest of the project
difficult to repair because of inaccessibility and in locating the failed area.
The situations in which an external membrane will fail can be catastrophic to the entire project. External membranes are frail, need to be applied in certain conditions and require care and attention which construction teams can’t afford.So, why not make the concrete the waterproofing barrier?
Instead of applying a membrane to the outside of hardened concrete, integral concrete waterproofing (ICW) is an admixture added to the concrete at batching, making the hardened concrete the waterproofing barrier. In most cases, concrete without an admixture is expected to develop micro-cracks that allow the passage of water, which decreases a structure’s service life.
However, when an ICW admixture is added to a concrete, the passive chemicals in the product get activated within the concrete matrix once it comes in contact with moisture in the pores and micro-cracks.
When the crystalline technology is activated, it develops millions of needle-like crystals in the concrete that block the flow of water and waterborne chemicals. Integral waterproofing is a permanent solution because it becomes part of the concrete, for the lifetime of the structure. Some of the main benefits of ICW are:
saves time by eliminating the need for an external waterproofing membrane
requires less repair, meaning lower overall cost
eliminates the need for harmful materials, such as petroleum-based membranes
self-seals micro-cracks for the life of the concrete
offers durability and lifespan improvements.
Crystalline technology transforms the concrete into an impermeable barrier with self-sealing abilities that provide a powerful defence against water damage. Crystalline technology also reduces the amount of site labour, which is an important aspect of high-rise building, by eliminating the need to install a surface-applied membrane.
High-rise buildings are the present and certainly will be the future of our cities. The use of concrete in the foundations of these buildings is great and therefore, should be built with the highest standards, striving for the longest lifespan possible, and it all starts with the foundation. In order to achieve the longest lifespan, use of the most durable materials is a must.

Gulf Medical University (GMU), the most sought-after private medical university in the Gulf region, has introduced the Associate Degree in Preclinical Sciences (ADPCS) program, wherein the students will do the 3-year pre-clinical phase at GMU, followed by the 3-year clinical phase at Ghana and receive a medical degree MBChB from the University of Ghana.
Commenting on the transnational collaborative program, Prof. Hossam Hamdy, the Chancellor of Gulf Medical University said, “To meet the ever-increasing demand for medical professionals, GMU is facilitating the students to carry out pre-clinical studies in GMU. The students will be registered for the MBChB program at the collaborating University, University of Ghana, which will be awarding the final degree.”
The total number of seats for the collaborative program is 25, out of which a limited number of seats are available for desirous students. Students wishing to apply for the same should have completed 12 years of schooling, and should also fulfill the other pre-requisites for admission into the program.
Established in 1998 by Thumbay Group UAE, Gulf Medical University – Ajman is one of the most popular private medical universities in the region. Today, it boasts an internationally recognized curriculum, a wide network of teaching hospitals, innovation and research centers, highly experienced/qualified faculty, separate furnished hostels for boys and girls, safe transportation facilities, on campus recreation and refreshment facilities.

Astonished but not dismayed by this severity, the housekeeper surveyed her bedraggled mistress. With that homely air of perplexed affection that had so long endeared her to Louisa's heart, she gave voice to a remaining consideration. It seemed, at that moment, to distress her above all others. "But there will be no one by at night to dress your hair."
Louisa laughed then, though her laughter was close to tears. "Then I shall be a fright," she answered. "Forgive me, Tilly, I don't mean to dismay you, but you have no understanding of how urgently these matters press. You must trust my judgement. I am safe enough at the Lodge and with your help I shall make all snug. Now come, waste no more of my time. I must be back before light fails." And how deeply she wished she could feel the confidence impressed upon her voice as she added with forced lightness, "Apart from any other consideration, I still have a wet dog to find."
Unconvinced, shaking her grey curls under the mob cap, Mrs Tillotson did as she was bidden.
The bedroom was insufferably dark, though if he insisted that the drapes be further drawn they would open only onto a dour and leaden sky.
"You have heard from Hattie?" he enquired.
There was a long silence. Which he must finally break. "My dear?"
"Did I not ask you that my family not be troubled?"
"Indeed you did, Emilia, but..."
"Do my wishes count for nothing in this house?"
"You know that is not the case. All of us desire nothing more than that you should take hold of your life again...more freely exercise your will. There is no future in this confinement from the world."
"Do you think I would choose to be so?"
"Indeed I do not," lied Edwin Frere. "Yet you must have help to free you from this condition and, frankly, I have found myself at a loss. When the good doctor suggested that I override your wish and write to—"
"That man was behind this then? I might have guessed."
"He has only your best interests at heart."
"The man has no heart. You have no conception how deeply he distressed me. He would be better employed as beadle, or as taskmaster in the Saxburgh Union."
"Nevertheless, he wishes you well. If his manner was a little rough..." The sentence was stifled under the thick cushion of Emilia's sigh.
"Well, the harm is done," she said, and placed the letter at her bedside table next to the sal volatile.
"No harm, I am sure of it. Only good can come from loving company. Tell me, what does Hattie say?"
Frere was unaware of it but his sister-in-law had spared herself the burden of a second letter. He was, in consequence, in an agony of apprehension.
"She wishes the impossible."
"Though she seems most eager to see me."
"But why not? We have plenty of room here at the Rectory. It would be a delight to have her bright spirit about the place."
"I know you do not greatly care for her, Edwin. Do not patronize me. I am not yet without my wits."
Chastened, Frere said, "Hattie would be excellent company for you. You could take the country air together. Surely your sister could do what I have failed to do... restore your cheer, your vigour?"
"As always you grasp the stick by the wrong end. Hattie wishes me to visit _her_ , in Cambridge."
For a moment, Edwin Frere was stunned. How could the silly chit have so mistaken his intent? He had been at such pains. Never had a letter been more carefully worded.
"She is of the opinion that the loneliness of this place accounts for my condition. She believes that the respite of a holiday in Cambridge would speed my recovery. Of course, it is out of the question."
"But I made it absolutely clear how frail you were... that it was imperative that she come here..."
Emilia looked up sharply in the gloom. "Imperative? You used that word? Harriet mentions nothing of this."
Caught in the toils of his own deceit, Frere's eyes scouted the room. He found its heavy odour suffocating.
"I thought... the surprise..."
"You would seek to conspire with my sister behind"
Suddenly he was out of all patience. "Dear God, Emilia, there is no pleasing you and your family. What am I supposed to do? Whatever motion I make you hasten to find fault. You terrorize the servants, insult the good doctor, accuse me of sedition... Is all the world to blame but you? Why, you become as tiresome as your father."
Had he smacked her across the face, the result could not have been more devastating. Emilia stared at him with Medusa's eyes a moment then eased herself further into the bed where she lay gripping the coverlet with white fingers. On the stone mask of her face no tears appeared. Frere got up from his chair, hating himself, to prowl the room like a caged panther. Damn the woman, he would not apologize. He was almost of a mind to tear the sheets from the bed, heave her out, send her sprawling in an agony of humiliation across the floor.
Emilia said quietly, "I think you have it in your heart to murder me."
"Don't be preposterous, madam."
But a hot darkness sweltered at his head. The breath was constricted in his chest and he found it difficult to swallow. Dear God, what had he done that things should come to such a pass as this? He turned to face his wife who lay, it seemed, transfixed with terror at his unprecedented rage, and hating him, hating him.
Violently he shook his head and slammed his way out of the room.
If Louisa had not dreamt badly on her first night at the Lodge, it was because she hardly slept at all. Little enough daylight was left by the time Pedro came skulking back, and for most of the evening she had sat, talking to him, stroking the soft rug of his ear between tense fingers, and waiting for the fit to come again.
Nothing had happened. Louisa hardly knew whether she felt more relieved or cheated, for the act of summoning all the courage and then being able to employ it only against her own anxiety had depleted her to no useful purpose. She felt as a nervous duellist must feel when his challenger fails the appointment – angry, braver in the aftermath than in the apprehension, her stomach slightly queasy with unassimilated dread.
The truckle bed had been narrow and hard, and she was profoundly unwilling to surrender herself to sleep. Though the Lodge was quiet enough, it would have been a too perilous lowering of her guard, so she tossed and turned until not long before dawn, when her body took matters into its own exhausted hands.
The next day had been largely wasted. When she saw that her tense efforts to concentrate were getting nowhere, she made a swift expedition back to the Hall. She wished to collect two items overlooked in the haste of her first departure: her deck of Tarot cards and, for wise consoling company, the porcelain figure of a Chinese mandarin which had stood for many years in her bedroom at the Hall. His face was smiling and, when you tapped the head, it rocked on a concealed axle so that he seemed to chortle at the absurdity of human antics. It was the smile she wanted with her, for she had felt its lack about her in the Lodge, and now that lack was remedied. Yet even under the Chinaman's cheerful protection the second night was little improvement on the first. Though she had slept longer, her dreams, if not alarming, had been most unpleasant, and she woke feeling unrested. Later that day she had been forced to catnap at her desk, having achieved little else of consequence there.
Brief as it was, the sleep did her good. On waking, it occurred to her with renewed conviction that the experience |

This must be a new issue.
In my earlier post on 29 Nov 2020, I posted a few screenshots and the text was working. Testing now in that same scene the text is missing.
Even going back to Proton 5.13, which I was using in my previous post, still has the issue. Although, 5.13 seems to show more text for the in-game dialog than Proton 6.3.
Could something in newer version of Mesa be causing this?
<issue_comment>username_7: It is possible. The text isn't rendered properly on my Arch install with _mesa 21.1.0-1_ but I installed the game on Linux Mint, which has _mesa 20_, and the text is displayed correctly with Proton 6.3 and Proton 5.13, just like in the pictures you uploaded last yearwith default Proton compatibility install. Even the title screen has blank spaces instead of text for this install.

Mesa 21.0.3
<issue_comment>username_6: I'm on Linux Mint, but I am using the kisak-mesa PPA, so I'm on mesa 21.1.1.
I've been using that PPA for a while, so last year when I uploaded the screenshots I probably was probably on mesa 20.in Mesa in this [Commit 9b8bc712b8bc712b2b0f60eb090a03b43156cd98146917c)

I expect that when I set the publisher and developer **is_system** flag in the database to false, I will be able to alter the individual permissions in the backend admin panel.
When I alter the permissions and save, the is_system flag in the database is set right back to true each time.
I'm sure this is an elementary question but I haven't put time into changing any permissions or roles until now. So basically, what is the best way to handle being able to override the default system settings for the publisher and developer roles?
Just update the database and try to save a permission on the backend for a role.

Giving Kim Kardashian, 37, a run for her money, the Brit beauty flaunted her peachiest asset in a pair of tighter-than-skin Calvin Klein knickers.

en | N/A | N/A | )August 22, 2011 President Obama has kicked off a three-day bus tour of Minnesota, Iowa and Illinois, where the corn is high and at least some factories are spewing smoke. He's holding town-hall meetings on the economy, putting the unemployed back to work and "growing wages for everyone." He won these Midwestern states handily in 2008, but he's not taking anything for granted these days. The Midwest is the region with the largest number of target states. The president's latest Gallup job approval there is 39%, the same as the nation as a whole.
Liberals assumed the Michigan model was the wave of the future, and that in time—once someone built big factories and unions organized them—backward states like Texas would catch up. Texas liberal writers Ronnie Dugger and Molly Ivins kept looking for the liberal coalition of blacks, poor whites and Latinos that political scientist V.O. Key predicted in his 1940s classic "Southern Politics."
History hasn't worked out that way. In 1970, Michigan had nine million people. In 2010, it had 10 million. In 1970, Texas had 11 million people. In 2010, it had 25 million. In 1970, Detroit was the nation's fifth-largest metro area. Today, metro Houston and the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex are both pressing the San Francisco Bay area for the No. 4 spot, and Detroit is far behind.
Adversarial unionism is one reason the Midwest slumped. It turns out that the 1970 assembly line, with union shop stewards always poised to shut it down, was not the highest stage of human economic development. When you make labor more expensive, you create incentives to invent new machines and create new jobs elsewhere. Foreign auto manufacturers built plants in a South recently freed from state-imposed racial segregation. With no adversarial unions, management and labor could collaborate and achieve quality levels the Big Three took decades to match., just as the young Harry Truman hated working on his father's farm
But amid the recession, Midwestern Obama Democrats and their public-union allies lost their hold on voters in almost every Midwestern state, losing five governorships last year, including Iowa, and winning the Illinois and Minnesota governorships by less than 1% of the vote. A region that voted 54%-45% for Barack Obama in 2008 voted 53%-43% Republican for House candidates in 2010.
The repudiation of the Midwestern model has played out most dramatically in Wisconsin, where government unions were recognized in 1959. On the streets of Madison—a small city dominated by state government and a giant state university—liberals demonstrated against Gov. Scott Walker's reforms. Ludicrously, they depicted public employees as an oppressed proletariat and they proved ready to break the law with violence in the streets and casuistry in the courts.
Despite the unions' huge financial advantages, Gov. Walker's Supreme Court and state Senate in hard-fought judicial and recall elections. The political balance in Wisconsin and the Midwest generally looks more like 2010 than 2008. |

en | N/A | N/A | On reviewing attentively the proceedings of the Court martial on the trial of Brigadier Genl. Wilkinson, the President is constrained by a sense of duty to object to certain parts of the same: amongst which, the denial of the right of reply on the part of the Judge Advocate to the Address (or Defense) of the Officer on trial—a right guaranteed by the opinions of the best writers on military law and sanctioned by practice, stands most prominent—the effect of which denial, it is not unreasonable to apprehend, may have prevented the correction of errors in the statements of the officer on trial as they are presented in his address; and may, possibly, have influenced the final determination of the Court.
The President also deems it incumbent on him to express his entire disapprobation of the conduct of the Officer on trial, in the want of respect manifested by him, on the occasion, towards his superiors; and in the unnecessary attacks made by him on the reputation of Officers associated with him in the service—a species of conduct calculated to encourage insubordination, and to produce discord where harmony is indispensable to the public welfare.
In making these remarks, while the President will not charge the Court with having acted under improper motives, and is disposed to believe that the conduct of the Officer on trial was influenced more by his feelings than by his judgment, yet, to have passed over in silence the circumstances now objected to, might be considered as approving them and giving a sanction thus to Precedents, which might obstruct the attainment of truth and justice on future cases of a similar nature.

I was also looking for ladies in hats. I figured that was a Polo tradition; wearing your finest hat to watch the match! I could not find one hat in my closet, but was looking forward to seeing what other ladies found.
Found some!!!
This one was my fave. I just LOVED this ladies entire outfit! She decorated the hat herself. I’d give her first place. She was so flattered that I stopped her to ask about her hat. She happily posed for a picture.
While waiting in line for the ever glamorous porta-potty, I spied Polo jackets and the really cool Preppy Big BBQ truck enrobed in the all important plaid pattern. The license plate was so cool.
It’s easy to make friends at events like this, just say hi, ask them what they’ve got cooking and of course compliment them on their hat!
The purple lady was a riot with such a fabulous hat! It was her Moms’. She then very enthusiastically offered me her tailgate special: Kahlua S’mores. Carefully broil marshmallows, top with crushed graham crackers. Make an indent in the middle. Add droplets of Kahlua and pop in your mouth. Yumm!
After about 6 of these(what can I say?! She kept handing me more!), I had to move and check out the “car” tailgaters. These folks are serious. Cool cars, tents, bars and so much glorious food!!
Because I was so busy socializing, I did not get to participate in the Polo tradition of stomping the divets. I did however make it in time to stick my hand out while the players come around and “high five” everyone “the Polo-way”.

en | N/A | N/A | At 15, Riff Markowitz ran away from home and joined the circus—an actual circus, mind you—as a tramp clown. That proverbial journey led directly to his career as performer, writer, director and producer, culminating in his most significant role: The Follies Man, that irascible, unpredictable and fearless social satirist who serves as ringmaster at every Follies performance.

Riff Markowitz guarantees your visit to FolliesLand will be anything but ordinary.
1938 — Born in New York, then family moves to Canada.
1953 — Leaves home to join the circus as a clown.
1954 — Clownery proves a tough life for a kid of 16 so he lands a job as radio disc jockey in Kirkland Lake, Ontario.
1973 — Moves to Hollywood and produces musical variety and comedy specials for the (then) new HBO television cable network.
1990 — Fails at retirement.
1992 — The curtain rises for the first performance of The Fabulous Palm Springs Follies.
At age 23, he parlayed a television announcing job into television personality Randy Dandy, above, with his own hit children's TV show in Canada. His sister charged neighborhood kids a nickel to see her famous brother sleeping.
Age 27: Vincent Price, far right, stars in the 1971 cult TV series, The Hilarious House of Frightenstein, which Riff writes, produces and directs. The popular 60-minute daily live action show combines variety, humor and educational segments—all with a light touch of mock horror. 130 shows were produced and continue to run in syndication after almost 50 years.

Because the andouille is already spicy, you could even leave out the cayenne and add more spice at the end for the adults.

en | N/A | N/A | Should you be juicing your fruit and vegetables?
Drinking your fruit and veg as juices or smoothies is trendy, but is it as healthy as it seems?
We take a look at the impact that juicing can have on your metabolism, and discover how et in a way that works best for you.
- As a result, juices contain free sugars that are absorbed much quicker into your bloodstream
- For some people, this can cause an unhealthy blood sugar spike followed by a crash, affecting hunger and energy levels
- Over time, repeated, unhealthy blood sugar responses can lead to unfavorable long-term health outcomes
- Juicing also removes the healthy fiber that is beneficial for your gut health
- Your personalized ZOE insights can help you better understand your unique metabolism and reach your best health by choosing foods that work with, not against, your biology
“Juicing is not a magic bullet to fix all your nutritional woes,” says Kirstin, our resident nutritionist. “You aren’t going to solve a vitamin deficiency by drinking a big gulp of juice if you do not have a healthy, diverse diet for the rest of the day.”
“If you are already getting a healthy, diverse diet, you’re unlikely to be deficient in most vitamins. So there’s no additional health benefit to juicing your fruits and vegetables in the hope of getting extra nutrients because your body will only absorb the vitamins you need and no more.
“le, so if you consume them in excess, you will just pee them out,” says Kirstin.
So we’re unlikely to get a vitamin boost from juices. But surely they can’t do any harm?
When we eat, our bodies have to digest these structures to release the nutrients and energy inside.
Whole plant foods consist of cells with fibrous walls, which your body must break down to release vitamins, minerals, and energy in the form of starch or sugar.
“Depending on how your body responds to carbohydrates, this means that some people can have a high blood sugar spike after drinking juices.”
And because juicing also removes healthy fiber - which is great for your gut (and your poop!) - the best way to get your fruit and veggies is to eat rather than drink them.
What your ZOE scores can tell you about your response to juices
Our ZOE at home test allows you to discover how your body responds to different foods, providing personalized food scores that take into account your blood sugar responses, the amount of fiber in food, and how processed they are. Based on these scores, you can find foods - and drinks - that work best for your body. And because we are all unique, the size of the effect varies from person to person.
Because juicing breaks down the food matrix and releases sugar more quickly, drinking lots of juice may cause unhealthy blood sugar responses for some people, while it may not be a problem for others.
If you do want to drink your fruit and vegetables, Kirstin suggests trying a blended smoothie, which maintains more of the food matrix and fiber compared to a juice.

en | N/A | N/A | What's your guess?Start with a penny and double it everyday for a month. How much would you have?
Let's start with an example. Suppose we start with a penny and double it every day for a month. The second day we would have two pennies. The third day we have four pennies. At the end of the first week, we have 64 cents. At the end of the second week, we have more than 80 dollars!The third week, more than 10 thousand dollars!The fourth week, more than one million dollars!And on the 31st day of the month, we have more than ten million dollars!
Wow!That's a miracle!
Doubling your money everyday would be a 100% return—per day!
Well, ok. Your money is not going to grow at 100% per day like in this example. It grows over years, but it's the same miracle!
Let's say your grandmother invested $1 for you on the day you were born at, say 9% per year. That money will double every eight years — it will be worth $2 on your 8th birthday. And, as we saw before, the longer you invest it, the faster it grows. It keeps doubling every 8 years!By your 80th birthday, that $1 has turned into one thousand dollars!Neat huh?
