The OpenStack Approach to the Cloud and What it Might Mean for the Future
Amanda Andonian
The OpenStack Design Summit started in San Francisco yesterday, prompting endless discussion on the web regarding what the future of the cloud might be. Founded by Rackspace Hosting and NASA, OpenStack represents the efforts of developers and cloud computing experts all over the world to create an open source cloud computing platform that any business, organization, or even individual can make use of. OpenStack also represents a potential shift in the way that we might envision the cloud in general since an open source cloud would definitely disrupt the monopoly that Amazon, Microsoft, and VMWare have in the space.
Is OpenStack a Look into the Future of the Cloud?
The move towards an open source cloud is definitely appealing for developers and experts in cloud computing since open source software invariably welcomes a passionate community of users who are free to contribute and make a difference in the development of the software. Rather than be locked into a proprietary software model, the promise of open-source suggests greater competition in the cloud space, as well as more collaboration between companies and users.
While some would argue that OpenStack is not quite ready for prime-time Rackspace announced yesterday that it was launching "new cloud capabilities featuring the world's first large-scale, production ready next generation cloud, powered by OpenStack." The press release went on to call out cloud providers both public and private (such as Amazon and Microsoft), with CEO Lanham Napier saying, "We're drawing a line in the sand against [them]."
As a founder, Rackspace is of course in strong support of OpenStack, especially since it represents a disruption to Amazon's monopoly in the cloud space. In a profile of OpenStack from Wired, OpenStack supporter Sebastian Stadil (CEO of Scalr and founder of the Silicon Valley Cloud Computing group) said, "I think one of the reasons OpenStack is getting so much traction — despite, to be frank, iffy stability — is that it represents the industry's only hope to survive."
However, opposition to proven cloud providers like Amazon, Microsoft, and VMWare isn't necessarily a selling point for companies looking for a stable cloud environment; and too often discussions of OpenStack are plagued by questions of its stability, especially given the news that OpenStack was establishing its own foundation. At the same time, developers in the IT industry are looking for more ways to grow in the cloud, which is why OpenStack started in the first place.
Possible Competition for OpenStack
OpenStack has already spurred some competition from Citrix, which announced a couple weeks ago that it was submitting its CloudStack solution to the Apache Software Foundation. Citrix signed on to OpenStack back when it first started, and is still featured prominently at the top of OpenStack's companies page; however, Citrix's General Manager of Cloud Platforms, Sameer Dholakia, was quoted by GigaOM saying that OpenStack just wasn't developing fast enough for CloudStack, making it too technically immature as a cloud platform. OpenStack's vacillation over whether to fully support Amazon's API was also a deciding factor for Citrix. At the same time, OpenStack has been very vocal about wanting to overturn Amazon's dominance in the cloud space, so it's no wonder that it wants to maintain its own API.
It's definitely a complicated and thorny issue, and the debate is only getting started, but the promise of the open source cloud is definitely going to shape the way that cloud providers think about their offerings and how best to survive in this still developing industry. With the OpenStack Design Summit still on-going, and Citrix's own cloud conference slated to begin next month in San Francisco, no doubt we're going to see this issue continue to evolve in the coming months.

Prospects of Legal Scholarship
Free Trade in Legal Scholarship?
Ralf Michaels
Sa 22 Feb 2014
Ralf Michaels is Arthur Larsen Professor of Law at the Duke University School of Law.
Culture, Institutions, and Comparison of Legal Education and Scholarship—A Response to Rob Howse
Will Germany always really best the US (and the world) in doctrinal legal scholarship?
On the courage to be wrong
I want to decline Rob Howse's invitation to talk about my own residual anxieties, because he introduces another more interesting theme into the debate: whether scholarship can actually be traded between countries. He suggests that such trade exists, though apparently only in one direction: "It is not as if Americans are going to buy their doctrinal scholarship from Germany […]; on the other hand, some forms of interdisciplinary scholarship from the US may well be exportable to Germany."
But it was not always so. There was a time, prior to World War I, when many Americans were indeed eager to "buy" their doctrinal scholarship from Germany. The influence of 19th century German legal science on what has come to be called "classical legal thought" in the United States can hardly be overestimated. It can be found in the work of US luminaries like Holmes, Pound, Fuller/Purdue, Llewellyn, and many others. And it can be seen in the history of American legal education in the 19th century. Duncan Kennedy has described this German influence as the first of his three globalizations of legal thought
That influence decreased when Germany became the enemy in World War I (symbolized most perfectly perhaps in Karl Llewellyn, who fought this war first in the German and later in the US army). And the fruits of the influence were all but eradicated when legal realism (which, itself, found influences from Germany, especially the late Jhering) rejected the "legal science" borrowed from German formalism that had become untenable, and replaced it with a new scientific approach that sought objectivity in disciplines other than law—economics, psychology, political science, a science of values, etc. The interdisciplinary strength was born and grew strong. After World War II, when German law was thoroughly discarded, "the wind changed"—US law became dominant and began to influence the law, both in Europe and elsewhere.
One can debate whether these respective influences constitute a trade in legal ideas, in which the best product finds the most consumers. Perhaps they are rather evidence of hegemony, in which a strong country—19th century Germany, 20th century US—imposes its respective legal culture on others. But reality is more complex. After all, although we sometimes think that ideas remain unchanged by their transfer, this is rarely the case. In reality, models from one country rarely fit another country. Instead, they function as irritants that are either rejected, or create an impulse of local reform. In my last post I mentioned an example of effective rejection: the Americanization of Japanese legal education as an example of a transfer that failed, because the US model was not adapted to the recipient system. The German Council of Science and Humanities proposes an adaptation—rather than trying to Americanize German scholarship and education, it suggests that reform can take up influences from elsewhere, and combine them with local tradition.
If Rob Howse finds this insufficient, this may be so because he does not focus on an entire culture. He takes issue with my focus on the average scholar in each country—we should, he thinks, rather focus on excellence. I find this problematic—the vast majority of US lawyers are not educated at NYU (or even Duke), and the vast majority of German academic scholarship remains focused on German doctrine. If both reports on legal education that spurred this forum focus on the entire system, not just the top institutions, they do the right thing.
But his emphasis on excellence raises a further interesting question. Could it be that the trade and exchange of scholarship are becoming elite privileges? Do they create a globalized elite of legal scholars worldwide, while other institutions become marginalized? In the United States, where the difference between the best and the worst law schools is enormous, the best schools (Harvard, NYU, perhaps even Duke) have the ability to initiate and shape a global discourse (though Christopher McCrudden, in his recent post, points out how much more internationalized UK schools are). But most US schools do not have that ability, and the ABA report | 1.326276 | 0.721335 | 1.470127 | 1.325783 | [

Galesburg XChange sets a model for creating community
Dancers practice their water dance performance on the third floor of Alumni Hall. From left to right, Freshman Maggie Cheng, Ashley Pineda, Sophmore Ravie Boungou, Sophmore Danny Cerna Nunez, and Sophmore Tina Jeon.
Karrie Heartlein saw the opportunity to turn normal places in the Galesburg and Knox communities into transformed pieces of art.
Last week, Galesburg hosted the One State in the Arts Conference of Illinois. The conference occurring on a biennial basis in different cities across Illinois invites administrators, students and connoisseurs of art to join together and share creative pursuits and ideas on strengthening local art scenes. As Director of Government and Community Relations, Heartlein played one of many roles involved in cultivating the conference. She noted this was the first time the summit had taken place outside of a convention center.
"It brings all these people together, it gives them an opportunity to network," Heartlein said. "This is the first time [the Arts Alliance Illinois and Illinois Arts Council Agency] have ever done a conference like this Here, they really got to experience Galesburg and the Knox campus."
Attendees came from all over the state to go to events or lead presentations. Among the guests was Sheldon Gooch, a senior at Illinois State University majoring in Art History. Gooch works as an editor and community liaison on a website called Sight-Specific, a platform which commissions writers to attend and document local art exhibitions in Bloomington-Normal and across Central Illinois. These ideas were incorporated into a talk hosted in Alumni Hall titled, "Fake News, Real People: Community, Performance, and Interactive Journalism" He emphasized the importance of enriching art scenes by commemorating all exhibitions, no matter how small.
"[Sight-Specific doesn't] care where these exhibitions happen: they can happen in a museum, they can happen in a studio, they can happen in someone's apartment, and we want to make sure that there is a space given to the remembrance of that showing, to the importance of that show," Gooch said.
Heartlein shared the sentiment that what Galesburg may lack in size, it makes up for with a vibrant art scene. Major draws as a host city included the Whitcomb Art Center and the Blick Art Materials distribution center and outlet as Galesburg is where Blick, the largest supplier of art materials in the United States, was founded. Local establishments were part of the program with events scattered across the downtown area and campus alike; venues included the Civic Art Center, the Discovery Depot Children's Museum, the Orpheum Theatre and the Knox College campus.
"[The conference] was an opportunity for us to recognize how well we work in cooperation with each other: our campus, community, and arts organizations," Heartlein said. "For Galesburg, that train is a wonderful artery bringing people [here] and giving us a chance to showcase all we have to offer."

National Waterdance:
As an homage to Knox's participation in the National Water Dance Project at Lake Storey earlier this year, Ridlon organized a performance in Alumni Hall of excerpts from the dance. The National Water Dance strives to bring attention to critical water issues within the United States, promoting the maintenance and respect of bodies of water. Each participating group receives the same dance motions to execute at the same date and time near a water source.
Students cleaned Lake Storey back in April during the first performance. Sophomore Ravie Boungou participated in the Alumni Hall rendition of the dance which took place on Tuesday as a part of her dance class. She thinks the dance brings important awareness to the environment in a more engaging way.
"I think this is how dancers work you dance, and you have a passion, so you take that passion and add dance to it," Boungou said. "I think [the project creator was] at a beach, it was filled with trash, and they just wanted to clean it up; then they realized that's happening everywhere."

Lava from Hawaiian volcano no longer imminent threat to key highway
Lava from the world's largest volcano is no longer an imminent threat to the main highway across the Big Island of Hawaii, scientists said Thursday, a development that was a welcome reprieve for motorists who depend on the road.
Mauna Loa still erupting but lava has been cut off, scientists say

Mauna Loa is seen erupting in Hawaii on Wednesday. Lava from the world's largest volcano is no longer an imminent threat to the main highway across Hawaii, scientists said Thursday. (U.S. Geological Survey/The Associated Press)
Mauna Loa was still erupting Thursday morning, but the lava that was feeding the flow heading toward the crucial road has been cut off, likely because of reduced production, said David Phillips, deputy scientist-in-charge at U.S. Geological Survey's Hawaiian Volcano Observatory.
"That's good news for us," Hawaii County Mayor Mitch Roth said. Still, county officials said they will stay on the alert — because scientists say things could always change.
Lava from Mauna Loa, which began erupting Nov. 27 after being quiet for 38 years, was 2.8 kilometres from Saddle Road, also known as Route 200 or Daniel K. Inouye Highway, the U.S. Geological Survey said.
"So just to emphasize, there is no current threat to any island communities or infrastructure at this time," Phillips said.

Last week, officials said the earliest the lava could hit the road was one week, prompting motorists to brace for upheaval from a possible closure that could add hours to commute times on alternate coastal routes. But, as expected, the lava slowed considerably in recent days as it moved across flatter ground, leaving scientists unable to estimate a clearer timeline.
Phillips said the active fissure is still generating lava flows, but they'll be localized around the fissure.
Hawaiian volcano eruption is explosive evidence of plate tectonic theory
If there are additional flows in the channel, it's very unlikely that supply from the top will push the flow front ahead to become a threat, said Frank Trusdell, a geologist with the volcano observatory.
"So right now, we don't expect that the new lava coming out on the surface to be able to replenish the supply to the flows that are closest to Daniel K. Inouye Highway," he said.

Hawaii's Mauna Loa erupted on Sunday night, creating a red glow in the sky.
Meanwhile, scientists were trying to understand why lava fountains were higher than usual overnight — a marvel noticed by people across the island, Phillips said. There wasn't a good estimate of size, he said, but the fountains were at least | -0.497447 | 0.497506 | -0.31507 | -0.512816 | [

Concord isn't as well known as some of the other manufacturers we have reviewed, but they have been in business for years, producing some great durable cookware sets that are designed to last. This is an eight-piece copper cookware set that features an aluminum core, ceramic lining, and a copper exterior. It has a traditional feel to it and offers, the classic copper look with all the benefits of an aluminum core for more efficient heating and a ceramic surface that's comparable to nonstick coated pans.
Our Verdict: This set is induction oven friendly and mainly a huge hit with consumers because it's made with copper and is available at a low price. This set isn't designed for pro use and features a thinner than average copper coating, which is said to scratch very easily. If you're looking for a budget-friendly copper cookware set then this set by Concord is a good choice just as long as you have realistic expectations in terms of performance.
Continue reading to find out why this cookware set earned a high rating.
This is the only ceramic coated copper cookware set we reviewed but considering it received such a high rating from consumers we decided to dig a little deeper and learn why this set comes highly recommended by home cooks.
Ceramic coated copper cookware is the ideal choice if you're searching for a set that's compatible with induction ovens, since many types of copper cookware are not. The ceramic interior also adds a lot of heft to this cookware, which isn't a deal breaker for most cooks. However, unlike tri-ply cookware or stainless-steel lined pots and pans, the ceramic interior can crack or chipped if dropped or not cleaned with care. In terms of performance the set offers an average performance that's comparable to stainless steel cookware. The low price is most likely the reason behind this set's popularity.
The thick ceramic interior is very durable compared to Teflon or tin-lined cookware.
The cookware is lined with a high-grade ceramic coating.
The handles are made out of fully polished stainless-steel and have an ergonomic feel to them that makes them easy to carry. The handles don't offer any type of heat protection and will be hot to the touch when in use.
Each piece in this set is compatible with induction ovens, unlike our top model the Matfer Bourgeat copper cookware set. The fact that they can be used in induction ovens is a huge plus for some cooks.
For pro cooks, the fact that the set isn't made out of a thicker copper can be a big drawback, while other cooks will prefer the ceramic lining. The body of the cookware is made out of cast aluminum and is coated with a mixture of ceramic and copper for improved durability.
The addition of the aluminum can help with heat regulation and makes up for the thinner exterior copper layer.

Most copper cookware sets have to be washed by hand and polished regularly. Because the cookware isn't made out of pure copper it's dishwasher safe, which is a huge plus in our book. Since the ceramic interior provides a type of nonstick coating, cleanup is a breeze, even if you decide to wash your cookware by hand.
In terms of care the pots and pans should be dried immediately after washing in order to avoid water spots. The exterior should also be polished once a month using a polish that's specifically designed for copper.
The pots and pans are made up mostly of aluminum, with a thick ceramic coating inside and a mixture of ceramic and copper on the exterior. A major issue we ran into with this set was the fact that the exterior tends to scratch pretty easily. Because of this, we don't recommend washing them in the dishwasher, although the manufacturer has deemed this as safe.
However, considering the pots and pans have a reputation for scratching easily, you may want to take more care during clean up and opt to wash this cookware by hand.
Since the cookware consists of a mixture of ceramic and copper, they don't need to be polished as frequently, | 0.260669 | -0.192194 | -0.099807 | -0.740355 | [

and discoloration isn't a major concern like it is with traditional copper cookware. The manufacturer still recommends polishing the exterior if any signs of discoloration becomes apparent.
So, the easily scratchable surface is a sort of a trade-off for the cookware's low maintenance needs, but if you want a set of copper cookware that you can display in your kitchen, then this can be a major drawback.
The ceramic coating does a decent job of preventing most types of foods from sticking to the surface, however, it doesn't offer the same type of impressive nonstick qualities that Teflon does, so you'll still want to use a type of oil or even butter when you're frying food. You also won't have to worry about the ceramic interior flaking off and getting into your food like you do with Teflon cookware. Ultimately, many cooks believe that a ceramic lining offers many benefits that Teflon just doesn't.
The thick ceramic interior is very durable compared to Teflon. You do not have to use special plastic or wooden utensils when cooking or worrying about scratching the surface.
So, how did this set perform when put to the test?
Traditional copper pots and pans are popular for use in pro and home kitchens because they heat up quickly and help to evenly distribute heat throughout the cooking surface. Since this set has a thick layer of ceramic in the interior, the pots and pans don't offer any of the benefits of copper cookware. Essentially, the thin copper exterior is mainly for looks and considering the exterior can easily become scratched, this set doesn't seem to have much to offer, unless you're looking for nonstick cookware that's induction oven friendly.
The ceramic interior can prevent the cookware from heating up quickly, but it does a fair job in terms of regulating heat, however, it can't compare to the type of performance you can expect from traditional copper cookware.
If you're not familiar with ceramic cookware, then you'll be pleasantly surprised at some of the benefits it has to offer.
Cooks who have never used ceramic lined cookware before often mistakenly believe it's unsafe. Ceramic coated cookware and solid ceramic cookware are two very different things. This set features a ceramic coating that has been placed over aluminum. The coating is made out of inorganic minerals that mainly consist of oxygen and silicon. The coating is both PTFE and PFOA and free. The inorganic composition of the coating makes this nonstick surface more environmentally friendly compared to traditional nonstick pans. The cookware has a heat resistance of up to four hundred and fifty degrees because of its inorganic nature, while competing nonstick coating such as Teflon, has a heat resistance up to five hundred degrees. When these ceramic coated pans are heated up beyond the recommended four hundred and fifty degrees they will not emit any toxic fumes like Teflon pans do. The coating will also not break down.
Overall, we felt that these pots and pans held up nicely to heavy use.
Concord isn't a company known for high end cookware. They typically produce mediocre pots and pans that are a better option for the novice cook on a budget. Their latest ceramic and copper cookware offers both pros and cons in regard to performance. If your priority is a copper cookware set that will help regulate the cooking temperature, then you'll want to find a set that features a different lining and a thicker copper exterior. If a cookware set that can be used in an induction oven is a must, then this is a great set to go with.
Essentially, if you can't afford to spend hundreds of dollars on a new cookware set, then this set by Concord is a great alternative.
The Concord copper ceramic lined cookware set is a more environmentally friendly choice compared to Teflon cookware. The surface works beautifully to prevent food from sticking. These aren't the type of traditional copper pots and pans that you'll find in a professional kitchen, but they don't have to be. For home use, this set is great. It comes with a number of essential pieces that you'll find yourself relying on for every meal. Reasonably priced, and durable to boot, we | 0.619524 | -0.026701 | 0.55708 | -0.442173 | [

Deep inside Nairobi's Mukuru slum, Doreen Atieno walks home, occasionally dodging mounds of garbage and hopping across pools of wastewater with her sickly daughter firmly strapped on her back.
But the torturous trek to a windowless apartment does not seem a big concern to the mother of two. She is more concerned about her daughter, Esther Awino, who at nearly three years old, has neither walked nor talked as the result of a disease that is nearly eradicated in developed countries.
Awino suffers from rickets, a crippling disorder that also kills. The illness has bent her spine, bowed her legs and retarded her growth.
And despite Kenya being an equatorial nation for which sunlight is blindingly abundant, Awino, and an increasing number of impoverished children like her is being stricken by a disease literally fed by darkness. Rickets is commonly caused by a lack of vitamin D, which is plentiful by way of sunlight.
Yet in areas like the Mukuru slum in Eastlands, where Atieno and her family live, sunlight is a rare commodity as urban congestion and buildings erected so closely together block the sun. Moreover, health officials fear that this year's Covid-19 related stay-at-home directives are likely worsening the prevalence of rickets in such areas.
"My daughter needs sunlight to grow up like a normal child, but it is almost impossible in this neighbourhood to get a place where she can bask," Atieno said.
"We live in darkness!"
Rickets is slowly spreading through Nairobi's slums and congested lower-middle-class habitations, like Pipeline, Umoja and Mlango Kubwa estates as a silent endemic. The childhood disease leads to the softening of bones, making casualties susceptible to fractures. In its acute form, victims present with flat feet, a widened forehead, curved back, enlarged wrists, knocked knees and bow legs.
Severe rickets, if left untreated, can lead to permanent bone deformities, retarded growth and chest infections that easily result in death, according to Fredrick Mitieng, an occupational therapist at Mukuru's Ruben Health Centre.
"Mild rickets can be averted within months using supplements, strict diets and sunlight exposure, but severely affected patients have to be on therapy for about two years," he says.
Samira Nassir, an epidemiologist and nutritionist at the Baraka Medical Centre in Mathare Constituency — also in Eastlands — says the trigger for the disease continues to be the limited access to sunlight by residents. Poor urban planning, she says, has people living in neighbourhoods that often have windowless buildings, crammed so closely together that midday routinely plays like midnight there.
"Children are stuck indoors — some parents have been overly careful, requiring their children not to go outside for fear of contracting the coronavirus," says Nassir.
"I anticipate that we will have more new rickets cases, as existing ones become severe."
Covid-19 containment measures in Kenya took effect in March and data suggests a firm corollary between the shutdown measures and increases in rickets morbidity rate, according to records from multiple health facilities.

atta National Hospital, Kenya's largest referral facility, records show a 23.5 per cent increase in the rickets morbidity rate between March and September, compared to a similar period last year.
At the Ruben Health Centre, where Atieno takes her daughter for treatment, admission records show an increase in the monthly frequency of patients undergoing physiotherapy to treat deformities caused by severe rickets infection. An average 20 cases are recorded at the facility every month since January, with the number reaching 25 in September, according to the centre's records.
The situation, says Caroline Munyi, a paediatric nurse, has been especially exacerbated by the congestion in the Eastlands where 2.5 million people occupy 206 square kilometres of land.
In comparison, 1.9 million people live in the rest of Nairobi's 498 square kilometres, according to the 2019 Kenya Population and Housing Census report.
"Most houses in the region are built in such a way that doors are the only ventilations," says Munyi, who is stationed at the Baraka Health Facility, in Mathare, another slum in the Eastlands.
And where windows are available, they are often blocked from opening by neighbouring buildings."
Experts blame crowding in informal daycare centres that serve the slums for fuelling rickets cases in the city slums. In these unregistered facilities, it is not rare to have babies less than three months old holed up in the tight cubicles, with little to no sunlight exposure.
This corroborates findings of a 2013 research by Doctors Without Borders in a Nairobi slum, which found that children living in slums had less than the recommended three hours minimum of sunlight exposure per week.
Regina Ndunge, whose three-year-old son Januaris Muuo is recovering from rickets, takes a two-kilometre walk each day from Mukuru to the Embakasi Secondary School.
Once there, she begs the guards to sneak her and her son into the school playground.
"I do not have an option," says Ndunge.
"I have to chase the sun every morning and sometimes in the evening too. Sunlight is the only guarantee my son will get better. I have to ensure he gets it."
Januaris legs are feeble. Anytime he tries to stand up, he immediately falls back to the ground. Weighing nine kilogrammes, he is five kilogrammes lower than he should be his age. His lungs, too, are severely damaged by the disease, making his breathing laboured and wheezy. Like Awino, Atieno's daughter, he cannot walk or speak.
Ms Ndunge says he suffered recurrent bouts of pneumonia before he was finally diagnosed mid last year with rickets.
This sort of misdiagnosis is common in health facilities across Nairobi as medical officers are largely unaware of its prevalence.
Ms Munyi, the paediatric nurse, fears that the extent of the disease's commonness is likely worse than is currently diagnosed in hospitals.
"We get numerous patients who have been on antibiotics for so long because of chest infections but have not recovered, says Ms Munyi, citing her experience at the Baraka Health Centre.
"Usually, it is because the root problem, which is rickets, has not been addressed."
The non-communicable disease is often misdiagnosed as a respiratory illness, especially where deformities are not present or visible, according to Dr Edwin Walong, a paediatric pathologist and researcher.
Dr Walong, in an unpublished investigation on causes of paediatric deaths at the Kenyatta National Hospital, found rickets to be a common occurrence.
The study indicates that 12.5 per cent of the investigated paediatric deaths had rickets in 2015. The investigation also found that the disease was not initially diagnosed or recorded as the primary cause of death — pointing to the extent of how neglected it remains.
In all the cases where rickets was found, patients had severe pneumonia.
He says given the findings from the study and the paediatric autopsies he has conducted over the years, it is highly likely that a majority of rickets cases in Nairobi are determined | 0.344219 | 1.441167 | 1.028821 | 0.371081 | [

8 Best-Paying Careers As A Librarian
from(pexels)
The field of librarianship has a lot to offer. Outside of the routine and often unappreciated work that goes on behind the scenes, librarians have so much more to offer as a career than most think. Sure, working with books and other media can be tedious at times. But much of that is negated by the money you'll make as a librarian. As an added bonus, your job doesn't require much in the way of formal education and training beyond some high school courses or an associate's degree in library sciences. This means you don't need a four-year degree to get started in this career. Check out our list of the top-paying careers as a librarian and see if any might be right for you!
Information Science & Technology
Librarians are increasingly handling technical information as part of their duties. This can involve advising clients on the best way to use technology to fulfill their information needs, and training staff in the best practices of technology. It can also involve working in the library's information technology department. Most job search websites list information science as a common profession for librarians. The job market for librarians with this degree is expected to grow 18 percent from 2014 to 2024, which is faster than average.
Library Associate
A lot of people think of the job of a librarian as sitting behind a desk, shelving books, and answering inquiries from the public. While these tasks certainly comprise a big part of a librarian's job, there are many other responsibilities too. A job as a library associate will give you the chance to work with library researchers and other staff members as a general assistant. You may work in a small or large library, depending on the size of the staff and needs of the patrons. This could include working with vendors and other administrative tasks, helping patrons find their way around the library, responding to e-mail, helping manage resources, and other tasks.
Librarian (Special)
Special librarians can work as a variety of subjects. Biology, chemistry, physics, and other subjects related to science are common. Special librarians also work in the fields of law, business, and education. These positions are often closely related to research and grant writing. A special librarian works at the high school, college, or other level. This may mean you have some training, though most positions will require at least a bachelor's degree to be competitive. A librarian may work closely with faculty, assisting in their research and grant writing. The job market for librarians with this degree is expected to grow at a modest pace from 2014 to 2024.
Library Administrator
Library administrators oversee the day-to-day operations of a library. This includes hiring staff, managing budgets, and overseeing services, among other responsibilities. Typically, you will need a master's degree in library administration or a related field to obtain this position. Many administrators also have some experience in a related field before going into this position. The job market for librarians with this degree is expected to grow at a modest pace from 2014 to 2024.
Registered Database Administrator
While many people think of databases as computer-generated, the information in databases can be very human-generated. For example, a lot of business data is kept in databases. A registered database administrator (RDA) is responsible for the security and integrity of that data. An RDA must have at least a bachelor's degree in computer science or information systems. These professionals also must pass a certification exam. The job market for RDA is expected to grow at a rate that is much faster than average.
Mathematics Librarian
While librarians often work with books and other media, mathematicians work with numbers. These professionals often assist in research, data collection, and other tasks related to statistics and other mathematics. Some libraries have started to offer free computer classes, which may help attract the right candidates to this field. The job market for librarians in this field is expected to grow at a modest pace from 2014 to 2024.
Research Librarian
A research librarian typically assists with research on a variety of topics, from history to current events. Some of this | 0.059155 | 0.375743 | 1.596939 | -0.292919 | [

9 Facts About Passive Income Nobody Talks About — It's Not What You Think It Is.
Warren Buffett once said, "if you don't find a way to make money while you sleep, you'll work until you die".
I personally took that to heart and not so long ago I created a passive income stream through blogging and affiliate marketing.
I'm not a millionaire or anything close to that but by making money with blogging I found out 9 facts about passive income that nobody ever talks about.
That's what I would say to myself especially in the beginning stages. When you want to create passive income you'll need to do a lot of work upfront. The foundation of your endeavor that'll generate your money has to be put together perfectly.
With Blogging, for example, you need a website that is ranked high in search engines so that Google directs people interested in your blog passively.
To get a high rank you need to do things like creating high-quality content consistently for a long period of time. This takes a lot of hard work and is something most people fail at.
This is something a lot of people don't really understand when they hear about passive income. Yes, depending on what you have done beforehand you'll have a fixed amount of income coming into your bank account every month. This doesn't mean it'll be like that for the rest of your life.
Most of the time you create a system that does all the work for you but the components in that system can be affected by outside events. This is why you'll have to monitor your system consistently and update it when needed.
You see all these people online that talk about having passive income but they're still working. Seems a little odd doesn't it. Most people I talk to that make way more money than me passive often follow their passions instead of laying on a beach and doing nothing.
Laying on the beach and sipping cocktails is cool but often it doesn't give you a sense of fulfillment. They might start helping other people with setting up passive income, go on another business venture or just keep working on their blog.
There are so many ways you can create passive income you just have to be creative. You're probably doing something right now that you can turn into a passive income stream.
In the book rich dad, poor dad by Robert Kiyosaki, Robert, and his friend collected old comics they got for free and created a library where you can read them for a limited time for money.
You might be able to do something like that, create an automatic system or just delegate your job to other people. It's all possible but it all starts with asking yourself how can I make money out of what I'm doing without sacrificing hours.
Passive income isn't something only accessible to the "chosen ones". Literally, everybody can do it no matter how old you are. If we look back at the example of rich dad, poor dad that is something you could literally even if you're 10 years old. You just need to be creative enough to come up with something and bold enough to carry it out. It's pretty simple!
I full heartedly believe that this is true but it doesn't have to be a lot of money. I don't know every passive income method that exists but I think it's save to say if you have a $100 you have enough money to start creating passive income in some sort of way.
I just needed $20 a month for hosting and a domain name and I spent the rest on getting proper training so I don't waste time doing the wrong things. If I can do that you can probably do it too.
When someone says they're earning a passive income they don't have to be rich. There are a lot of people out there just making a $1000 a month passively next to their own job.
How much you want to make is entirely up to you and how much time and energy you want to invest in creating a system that does that.
Some people spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on marketing because they know they can get three times as much out of that.
Like I said it's rare that people become rich by having just one source of income even if it's a passive one. I see a lot of people online that next to their passive income also do e-commerce, create online courses or create a subscription-based online platform.
If you think you'll be able to retire early and relax with just one income stream you'll undoubtedly get a | 0.091642 | -0.041473 | 0.478456 | -0.838557 | [

New Orleans City Tidbits
Since the early 1700's, New Orleans, Louisiana has been the busiest northern port on the Gulf of Mexico and the primary community in Louisiana and is located on a bend of the Mississippi River, about 100 miles from the mouth of the river. The settlement was established and ruled by the French and then the Spanish ruled for some 40 years, and finally purchased by America during the Louisiana Purchase in 1803. New Orleans is renowned for its vibrant history as well as its distinct Creole culture. New Orleans has been fought over during some rather significant battles during the Civil War and the War of 1812. However, in the last century, the city has seen some racial strife, poverty as well as natural disasters that included slowly sinking land, floods, and hurricanes.
The native Indians of the Woodland and Mississippian cultures, were the first known inhabitants of the New Orleans region. Prior to 1718, there weren't many permanent white pioneers, and then when the governor of French Louisiana, named Jean-Baptiste Le Moyne, Sieur de Bienville, established the settlement of Nouvelle-Orl�ans on the first crescent of high ground above the mouth of the Mississippi River, although the expeditions of La Salle and De Soto passed through the region. He transferred the capital of Louisiana from Biloxi in 1722. Also in 1722, a destroyed the majority of the new settlement, which was rebuilt in the grid pattern of what is currently known as the French Quarter.
From 1762 through 1763 France signed treaties that ceded Louisiana to Spain. For some 40 years New Orleans was a Spanish community that was adopting the Spanish racial rules that permitted for a class who were free people of color, and trading heavily with Mexico and Cuba. From 1788 through 1794, the community was devastated fires in and was rebuilt with a cathedral and brick buildings that remains standing.
Louisiana reverted to the French in 1803, and the U.S. purchased in the Louisiana Purchase some 20 days later. In defense of New Orleans, the final battle of the War of 1812 was fought. Colonel Andrew Jackson led a coalition of Tennessee Volunteers, free blacks, and pirates to defeat a British force outside of New Orleans.
New Orleans became the third largest and the wealthiest community in the nation, in the first half of the 1800's. Its port shipped the produce from much | 0.152464 | 1.061554 | 0.077022 | -0.474365 | [

Album Review – Tim McGraw and Faith Hill's "The Rest of Our Life"
Trigger Reviews 65 Comments
Look, I see what they were going for here. The problem is what they were going for was just not very good. This album is a concert play; not your typical studio record. Tim McGraw and Faith Hill are on this massive "Soul2Soul" tour together, and when folks have been to the concert, they want to buy Tim and Faith the home game. So that's what they made. As we all know, touring is where the real money is for these massive superstars these days. This record is just a way to reinforce what is happening on stage.
And who is going to go to Tim McGraw and Faith Hill concerts? It's certainly not the hip kids or the shit kickers. It's 40-something and 50-something couples who will be into the type of mature love bird/adult contemporary material The Rest of Our Life delivers. They come home after the concert a little tipsy, pay the babysitter or settle into the empty nest, and then have middle aged missionary sex before falling asleep in each others arms at a devilish 12:02. Tim and Faith singing sappy love songs as they gaze in each other's eyes is just the lubricant for the bored Cialis set.
We wondered when it was announced why Tim McGraw would part ways with Scott Brochetta's Big Machine Records after things had been going so swimmingly for the last few years. My guess is ol' Scotty got a whiff of the demos of this thing and said, "Love ya Tim, but you're going to have to go elsewhere to peddle this." Beyond the background noise production that in moments veers towards Enya—and was primarily handled by McGraw and Hill themselves (which is never a good idea with a project like this)—the songwriting here is surprisingly subpar, and by a country music power couple known for their propensity to find the best material lurking in the publishing houses of Music Row and singing the hell out of it. Perhaps nobody can write a solid duet anymore.
It's really quite shocking how sedated some of the lines and songs are in this record. In concert, these are the type of songs you can't wait for the performer to get through so they can play the hits. At one point in the opening title track, Tim McGraw is singing, "If one gray hair shows, I'll be fine. If my waistline grows, I'll be fine." Mature material is okay, and even welcome in an environment where most performers are hyper-obsessed with youth. But the sappy, mom and dad factor on this record is almost unbearable. Somehow Ed Sheeran had a hand in writing the title track, and apparently that was enough for folks to think it is "relevant."
There isn't even those one or two good songs on The Rest of Our Life for Tim McGraw to hang his black plastic cowboy hat on like even the worst records of his career, or big moments for Faith Hill's voice to shine like we know it can. Another surprising failing of the record is how some of the songs don't really work for the range of the other singer. Tim will be tasked to sing way too high in a glass-shattering range, or Faith will be way too low making her tone almost masculine. The first single from the album "Speak To A Girl" was unflattering to Faith in that way, and it already stalled out at #19 | -0.115992 | -1.174941 | -1.717928 | -1.143567 | [

on the Country Airplay charts before getting yanked.
What's ultimately so frustrating about The Rest of Our Life is how good this record could have been. Tim McGraw has been on a roll lately as one of the bright spots in the mainstream, finding and recording songs of real depth and meaning, giving them a bit more twang than what is trendy, and then telling radio to play them, which they've been willing to do. Faith Hill was always at home with this dreamy soap opera style, but after so long without a new record, this could have been a serious comeback with years of pent-up material ready to present to the world with her hubby singing harmony. But instead of top shelf material, The Rest of Our Life feels populated with what was left on the cutting house floor. There's just never a "moment."
It's worth saying that for what The Rest of Our Life tries to do in the production, it's done well, meaning it attempts to set a certain mood, and accomplishes this with sonic tapestries and extended forays into ethereal moments. You may think with titles like "Telluride" and "Cowboy Lullaby," you'll get a lot of rough and rugged textures here. Quite the opposite is the case, but both of these songs include elongated instrumentals that you're just not used to hearing from Tim and Faith, or really anyone in the mainstream. And though the songs and even the playing may not be especially remarkable, for the mood this music looks to make, it warrants accreditation.
A fool would be one who thought Tim McGraw and Faith Hill's long-awaited duet record would be some landmark accomplishment. But we at least thought there would be something worth salvaging here. Instead it feels very much like a side project and a misstep for both artists, regardless of a few sweet moments and the sexy time it may brew for some couples. It's background music at best, destined to be seriously forgotten in pretty short order for the legacies both artists have forged on their own.

I went to a Tim & Faith concert this year and the crowd is a lot younger than you're giving them credit for. Sure there are plenty of middle aged people, but I saw mostly 20 and 30-somethings who grew up on their music, myself included.

I'm with Andrew on this one, as a 26 year old, I can attest to the fact that a lot the folks in my generation love Tim and Faith. I've seen them twice, and both times the crowd was more in line with 20-somethings and early 30's than anything else

I do think the album is really disappointing though.
December 6, 2017 @ 11:10 am
I just listened to this CD yesterday. I hated it. I didn't finish listening to a single song. I am a huge fan of Faith's, I have everything she did, and was really looking forward to her return. I did not like the long instrumentals, I did not like the weak songs, I did not like the misuse of their voices. I am in my early 60's and hated everything about this music. so disappointed.
My words on who this album would appeal to are being a little misconstrued, and I'll take partial blame for that from putting the cart before the horse.
What I was trying to say is that this record is meant to appeal to older married couples, and I stand by that. When you have songs talking about graying hairs and growing waistlines—and all the other themes these two delve into here—I think that is a very fair assessment. I still think that will also be the primary demographic who will attend the concerts, though some may just also be Tim McGraw fans. But if I was a Tim McGraw fan from his last few albums and early stuff, and then went to a concert where the cornerstone of the material performed was from this record, I would be disappointed.
I should have been more clear that the album may beget the older concert crowd, not necessarily vice versa. But I think the point is still valid: this is music for older married couples. Which is not necessarily wrong. It's | 0.137398 | -1.368329 | -1.140934 | -1.248923 | [

just not very well executed, or country.
I think Tim's fans were disappointed in the concert, but not because of the music from this album. He sang his top hits – they just wanted more songs from him. The only songs they sang from this album were Speak To A Girl, Break First, and Telluride. Speak To A Girl and Break First were crowd favorites and aren't songs for an older crowd. Neither is Telluride which was amazing live because of the instrumentals. Really – the only songs that are geared toward an older, established couple along the lines of an Angry All The Time (another crowd pleaser on the tour) are The Bed We Made and maybe Damn Good At Holding On – both pretty good Lori McKenna songs. The gray hair and waistline verse is from a song about a young couple starting out.
Agree with you that a few of the songs seem out of range for them. I don't think this can be called a duets album, though. I think it's more of a vehicle to launch Faith back into the public. She sounds amazing on Love Me To Lie, which feels really out of place. Sounds more like a movie score than a country album track.
Agree – I was surprised by the number of twenty-somethings around me at Tim and Faith's shows.
Looking forward to your review of Walker Hayes' "Shut Up Kenny."

Holy shit, is it ever bad. If you think that's bad, you should YouTube "Face on My Money". It's so bad, he actually had to be putting forth an effort.
Can you also believe that Walker Hayes used to make decent, tolerable pop country? Pants was pretty good.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=tG9BMnupREQ This song was catchy and clever. It's hard to believe this is the same person.
Typical crappy pop song. Nearly any person could write this crap in 20 minutes. Faith Hill is thin and attractive, but she still weighs more than ol' Timmy. He needs to take a break from the yoga.
I would rather just listen to "If we were vampires" on repeat than any of the songs on this album. Jason Isbell says everything that Tim and Faith try go say in a whole album with just one amazing song.
Bill Weiler
The difference being Jason Isbell has something to say, where as some performers are content to just say anything.
Don't know this record ….but from your review , Trigger , it just may be the kind of record we can expect from today's country 'stars ' down the line. They are singing unsubstantial fluff right now . Their fan following expects nothing more from them so they will lap up something like what the McGraws are peddling here later on. Don Williams and many others had catalogues of terrific songs of substance …and to his last recordings Don was true to that commitment to finding great songs that refelcgted and said something . I'm not sure in this ' Borschetta" era of manufactured 'stars' that we'll see better material from most of them as their careers wind down . In fact we can probably expect even more pandering .
Sadly, I agree. I have huge country music libraries of Alan Jackson, George Strait, Lefty, Chris Ledoux, George Jones, Tammy Wynette, Loretta Lynn, Jamey Johnson – I can go on and on. Chris Stapleton has entered the mainstream music. His latest two albums are subpar in my opinion. I'm hugely disappointed in this Tim/Faith album. Don Williams, wonderful music.
I've never liked his "black plastic cowboy hat". I would never pay money to see either of them and I'll never buy what they're trying to sell, though I did like Indian Outlaw.
The album is background music. Perfect for daytime soaps, rom-coms & shopping channels.
I don't think the album will help Tim McGraw or Faith Hill long term.

Turns To Rust"
I'm a fairly big fan of Tim McGraw. The first country album I ever purchased was All I Want in 1995 when I was in middle school. So I'm favorably disposed toward his output, but this album is so boring that it's difficult to listen to in one sitting. I was prepared for that, based upon the two singles. "Cowboy Lullaby" is the only song I like, but it's not exactly itching my ears for repeated listens. That said, the album is not egregious, thank God, and will, as you say, soon be forgotten.

Garth (Brooks) and Trisha (Yearwood), sometime in 1999-2001, recorded a batch of songs for a potential duet album but it remained unreleased due to their different labels and other reasons. I've always wondered if those tracks will ever be released. I've also wondered what songwriters were counting on some mailbox money as a result. And then Garth and Trisha record a Christmas 'duet' album? T'is not the same… but I digress… now a Tim and Faith duet album? I've already lost interest in this too.

Good point about the songwriters. You'd think that if Garth cared as much about writers as he claims to he'd want to get material from new writers out there as quickly as feasible rather than releasing one anthology after another and padding the bank accounts of those who have already become millionaires as a result of his album sales.
Love Trisha – Garth, done deal. I'm not impressed with his new stuff. He just doesn't have it anymore.

Trigger, what are your thoughts on the Lori McKenna co-write, "Damn Good At Holding On"? I think out of the two cuts she has on the record, this is the better one – I would also love to hear Lori herself cut it. "Cowboy Lullaby" and "Sleeping in the Stars" are also decent IMO.
"Damn Good At Holding On," "Telluride," and "Cowboy Lullaby" are probably the most solid tracks on the record. But I still just don't feel they rise to the bar McGraw has set on his most recent records for finding really great songs. "Diamond Rings and Old Barstools" and "Meanwhile Back at Mama's" are better than any single song on this entire record in my opinion.
Agree 100%. I think Lori's song The Bed We Made had potential but it falls apart with the chorus production and would have been better with a bit more flesh in the chorus. I think the lyrics on Break First are pretty damn good.
I went to the Tim/Faith concert this past summer. Between Faith over-extending her vocals and the deafening electric guitar solos, it felt like a major misstep. I ended up leaving before the show ended.
I think the worst lyric written in the past year is "You've got to respect your mama, respect the hell out of her." What?
How is it offensive?
Could it be because it's a woman saying it?
He didn't say it was offensive, he said it was bad.
As a woman, I saw it as a play on "beat the hell out of her". A common term used when referring to abusive relationships. I think young people and women got more out of this song than the main stream.
Who said it was offensive? It has nothing to do with a woman or man saying it. Usually, when I am talking about respecting my mother, I do not say "respect the hell out of her." It just seems like an oxymoron.
Right? My mom would be mad if I phrased it like that. Ergo, it would be disrespectful.
Play on words…think "beat the hell out of her" as common phrase one hears about abusive relationships. Mama…don't think they mean mother literally, but the woman in someone's life –
girlfriend, wife. Young songwriters.

Tim and Faith can have their pick of ANY song by ANY songwriter in the country.
And they pick THIS?
Yes, they're attractive people. They have | -0.481695 | -1.277007 | -1.558145 | -1.478494 | [

big hearts. They're livin' the money looks and protein shake dream.
So maybe the problem is that they're just not that smart. Maybe they ARE this shallow. Maybe this is all they got, this is as far as they can go.
Which is a major pity, because Tim's work with those Kleenex Songs for Men he's been putting out ("How I'll Always Be", etc) can be good. Faith, I don't know. I thought she was just a looker, no real substance.
But they were involved in The Blind Side movie, and I thought that meant they really had something on the ball.
And yet, it's disappointing. I feel like we could use some adult married people talking sense, in this day and age.
This has been the mystery for me with 99 out of 100 acts Corncaster . With all of the absolutely amazing music around ….heaps of it in publishing vaults , they invariable pick the crappiest of the crap ….generic, pandering , forgettable pablum designed, seemingly , to be safe , inoffensive and/or just trendy . I know , I know its because all of the newer acts are expected to write or co-write their own stuff and for my money this may be THE worst thing that's happened in terms of the quality of country music .EVERYBODY IS NOT A WRITER …especially if you haven't spent years in the trenches honing your craft and learning from the greats . Sure , you get the odd young artist with the gift …but for God's sakes GO AND FIND THE BEST SONGS YOU CAN FIND from REAL writers …veterans who've had repeated success ….record the BEST stuff while you listen and learn and become a writer yourself .
The age old advice given to newer writers is " Take the first hundred songs you write – and THROW them away "…..cuz you are only just beginning at that point to get a handle on writing a great song .
But I digress …this doesn't explain why The McGraws didn't make informed decisions on this one . Faith even recorded " The Secret Of Life " ….one of the best 'country' songs ever , IMO , so damn… …she must have SOME idea of what a great song is supposed to sound like .
Razor X
"…Faith even recorded " The Secret Of Life " ….one of the best 'country' songs ever , IMO"
I was with you up to that sentence. God, I hate that song!
Let's see …..
"This KIss" ….or " Secret Of Life " …hmmm?
Whatever turns your crank I guess Razor .
" Secret Of Life" completely restored my faith in commercial country music at the time …..a song that actually said something , had an interesting arrangement and was completely universal .
"This Kiss" possibly the WORST piece of lyrical nonsense ever …in any genre …….
Neither song is very good. But there's nothing really country about "The Secret of Life". I always thought the melody of that song was very awkward and clumsy and Faith's voice sounds very rough on it.
well I hear you on faith's voice …..never been my favourite no matter what she sang .
I think what I really loved about Secret O f Life was the smartness of it compared to so much stuff . I'll give you that it isn't country in a trad sense maybe …but it is in a substance and narrative , conversational sense . Its like we're sitting at the bar with those guys getting to hear their conversation (like George Strait's ' I Hate Everything ' ) and we relate cuz we've all had that conversation . The best country stuff shows us ourselves I think …no matter our age ( Don Williams ) . Not much new stuff does that very well . I also love Gretchen Peters' own version of the song ( she's the writer ). But each to his own my friend .
With songs like Truck Yeah and Looking for that girl, i don't think Tim McGraw has good taste for songs (at least the last ten years)
You have to look at his album cuts DimM . He finds some of the BEST stuff around each time out . No ….most times it doesn't get released to radio ( with exceptions as Trigger points out ) …..his radio stuff has been mostly 'miss ' in the last years ….but yeah ….he has found some | -0.5899 | -1.581414 | -1.593653 | -1.392648 | [

gems to include in album collections (' The Book Of John' )
Just kidding.I love his earlier work (90's stuff) but now i just really don't care. I expected more from someone who covered Bruce Robison's Angry All the Time (#1 radio single) and now at 50 years old he releases formulaic music with his retired wife.
Master Spleen
pah tim and faith are that embarrassing couple in every movie ever I mean im sure they are wonderful people and that they love each other but they just come across as dopey at least thats my opinion it doesnt have to be yours but why is their relationship so public and I mean im sure that they dont act the way they do on stage my mate and I have a primarily non speaking relationship we certainly arent all juicy and flambouyant about it her nickname for me is "left" but its been so long I dont remember why but tim and faith just seem like they belong in a silly little b movie for Christians the way they come across and thats not trying to be mean just that they market their relationship and it just seems kinda dorky sugary and I think this album could have been so much more I havent heard very much of it yet so I dont wana say rude things but it is a missed opportunity not to age as gracefully as roy and dale evans did I remember seeing them do the happy anniversary song on hee haw they just seemed so graceful and elegant and they didnt seem to be marketing their relationship and their music together had a class and a maturity to it sadly missing here
Nailed it Spleen
thank you albert I mean im sure theyre wonderful people but sort of like blake and Miranda and now the girl from no doubt or more signifificantly thomsas thrett and his wife the relationship is just so so Hollywood esque and reporters are there and I always felt like it was just on the hokey side and all dolled up for the cameras and maybe part of the reason is because marriages fail all the time now and people wan to see happy marriage so celebrity marriages are more a talking point now because of how uncommon successful marriages are and when I grew up watching dale evans and roy and gene and randoplh scott marriage was sainted and I knew I woukd only ever marry once and id be stuck with her forever that was the way it was and im so glad I took it seriously so roy and dale didnt seem so uncommon they seemed like normal people and now with so many divorcees not that thats a bad thing because a lot of people stayed in bad ones ideal marriages are the stuff of dreams now and famous people are already elevated a bit above common people which is a bit absurd but such is life I suppose but roy and dale and even George and tammy just seemed so real and not all the glamour they just had this air about them and of course George and tammy were splitsville but I still hold them as the golden standard for a country music marriage to me faith and tim will never be like George and tammy im sure their marriage is stronger but George and tammys songs they recorded were so mature and profound and not so hokey pokey aw shucks like some hallmark movie or a dime store novel
Please use punctuation.
Garth is nauseatingly over the moon to Trisha in his shows. I like to see a strong man pay respect to his woman but come on.
They really aren't public – only recently because of this album. They don't spend anytime getting in magazines, etc. The only non-album promo time you hear anything about them is if someone posts on social media that they saw them at their kid's high school football game on Friday night.
Trucker Speed
So now he has two songs called Telluride? I liked the first one at least

One interesting thing to me is whether this little detour will spell the end of Tim McGraw as a mainstream radio sure thing. This stupid system really frowns on acts disappearing for a period of time or veering off into unfamiliar territory. It really always has if you look at it so it's nothing new but with McGraw being along with Urban and Chesney the only current hitmakers of a certain age I could easily see him losing his place at the table.
I think tim mcgraww has aged a lot more gracefully that his peers especially Chesney who is still gripping onto his beach dad thing and trying to remain hip and revelant and peoppe like luke bryan never grew up but tim | -1.18023 | -1.978933 | -2.26322 | -1.938936 | [

McGraw has been professional about his aging and doesnt seem like an absurd midlife crsis guy he seems to radiate a bit more maturity and thoughtfulnes even if sometimes he comes across as a dorky dad from a nickelodeon movie hes still a lot more elegant than luke bryan who is that embarrassing midlife crsis guy who sthinks hes still cool and seems like the cliché embrassing parent in every kids movie that seems ot want to make all dads dumb and embarrassing like a ben stiller movie. tim McGraw has that dorky part down but whereas a ben stiller dad is usually out of touch and tries real hard to be hip but is just embarrassing tim mcgra is a bit more like jack black in the movie the big year with steve martin hes kind of awkward but incredibly honest and sincere and likeable but thats only my opinion
Yeah, that's why I very much prefer Tim over Kenny these days. Tim has actually shown more maturity with his recent music, unlike Kenny, who for the most part, still seems to be aiming for the college crowd.
I liked Kenny Chesney in his early days. He became less country and more pop after his first couple of albums.
I just find it ironic that you can go to the trouble to put the accent over the e in cliché but can't be bothered to use a single period.

oh my sweet Jesus you people are insensitive.
how many times does the man have to explain he's got tendonitis and can't type well?
I hope when you get older your limbs ache and burn
the commenters around here are some of the most elitist snobbish self-righteous buffoons in music
everybody wants to insult people for liking Sam Hunt but all y'all love Maddie and Tae who make the same kind of music except are hypocrites and keep going on and on about wanting to hear trashy songs by women instead of trashy songs by men
but when I say I don't care who sings it as long as the songs are good?
I must be a sexist or not care about women
but God forbid I care more about the quality of the song than the gender of the singer.
Everything is so political I hardly want to comment anymore because all anyone goes on about is women on the radio or what did Sturgill say about Trump and now Neil McCoy got involved and you know what I hate now
Because now everyone's arguing about the stupid nfl thing again neil McCoy shouldn't have thrown oil on the fire because people are always asking to argue and act like two year olds over something and it's getting so bad around SCM that now people are insulting disabled people for not using grammar to their elitist standards I'm so sick of reading the comments on here because thoughtful discussion went out the window two years ago and now everybody just wants to shove their opinions and better than the rest attitudes in everyone's face
can we just focus on the music and be a bit more decent in the comments section?
because making fun of people's tendonitis isn't funny. it just shows that you're an incredibly judgmental person and it's not just this comment but people have been going on like this for days
the comment police went on a witch-hunt after lil dale they drove Clint away and were alarmingly unkind to me too and now the masses have found a new person to throw all their hate upon.
I call BS. If it's so hard to type why does he use so many words to say so little?
Besides, my point was about the fact that he created a é but used no punctuation. Making é requires five keystrokes, a period requires one. That must have been a total killer.
most devices put the accent on the e automatically. my computer does, my mobile does, and my cell does.
Why the disrespect for missionary? It's been around even longer than Tim and Faith and it's still going strong and pretty much never disappoints.
I am just hoping that this direction is not any type of sign for how Tim will go with his solo stuff. His solo material has been so good lately, I hope he keeps going in that direction.
For anyone wondering what a Kenny Loggins/Kim Carnes album would have sounded like in 2017.

i only listened to the title track after i heard ed sheeran co-wrote it and i love him but needless to say it's boring like most of the songs i've heard off the album
i have this theory that ed was originally planning to cut rest of our lives but then he wrote perfect and realized it was much better so he just gave the first song away
As a child and continuing into my teen and adult years, I purchased every Tim McGraw and Faith Hill record released. Never had the opportunity to see them in concert until this year. And as someone who adored them, I had big expectations for seeing their live show. I wouldn't say I was disappointed, but I left pretty underwhelmed.It wasn't one of those shows that I raved about for days.
Obviously, they have a big catalog of hits between the two, but their opening consisted of just snippets of their most popular hits – songs that I would've loved to have heard from beginning to finish. It was a show where I actually would've been happy to have just the two of them sing the hits…none of the dramatic stage changes or lengthy video intros. I'm sure it worked well for their Vegas residency…but I didn't fully get into it the way I thought I would in a stadium setting. A lot of people in my section actually got up and left during Faith's entire performance…and everyone remained seated for the entirety of the show until Tim sang "Real Good Man" towards the end of his set. It was just an odd experience and definitely made me appreciate the entertainers who can deliver the hits and album cuts without relying on theatrics and costume changes.
Derek Sullivan
I could tell from the first 20 seconds of "Speak to a Girl" that this CD is going to be Faith Hill with Tim McGraw. This is Faith Hill music. This is a Faith Hill CD. The tour is a Faith Hill tour. There is nothing on this CD that resembles Tim's last two CDs. This is him helping his wife jump start her career. I would not expect Tim's next solo CD to sound anything like this. There is no new trend.
I'm gonna have to agree with that observation Derek . No I haven't heard thisrecord and won't ….I've seen and heard enough of the two of them on award shows and yeah …that insipid last single " Speak To A Girl " ….absolute pandering crap .
Again ….these guys missed a golden opportunity to record a fantastic album of the best writes available even if they weren't all duet-able , if I'm hearing you guys correctly here . But saying that ….MOST commercial-centric duets are not that great lyrically .
Trying to milk every last penny out of the music they helped to destroy.
I need to defecate.
Some time ago, it was reported that Tim and Faith were next door neighbors and did not live together. Not that it matters..Don't recall where I read this, and only read tabloid headlines in the supermarket, so probably was a different source.
Do they even like each other anymore? So tired of all the fakery..
Nah, their house is just so big that her side of the bed is in a different zip code than his.
Really, sophie, you seem to have lost your way to the National Enquirer web site.

Aussie dollar reaches three-month high against greenback
Loading Chart…
Thodey to chair Xero
Former Telstra chief executive David Thodey will take over as chair of cloud accounting platform Xero from February. Xero announced to the Australian Securities Exchange this morning that Graham Smith who has been chair since January 2017 was retiring earlier than anticipated due to the health of close family members and the impact of this on his capacity to travel to New Zealand for board meetings. (The third executive this week to cite constant travel to New Zealand as a reason for resignation!)
Mr Thodey joined Xero's board in June 2019 and is a non executive director at Vodafone, Ramsay Health Care and chair of Tyro and the CSIRO. He was chief executive to Telstra from 2009 to 2015.
"Xero is an exciting company and I am delighted to be a part of it, both as a director and from next year as a chair," he said.
Xero's shares last traded at $78.88.
British Pound rises
By David Scutt
The British pound has surged following the release of an exit poll suggesting the UK Conservative Party will hold an overwhelming majority in the UK House of Commons, paving the way for Britain to formally exist the European Union on January 31.
The pound is currently sitting at 135.12 US cents, up 2.7 per cent for the session. It's currently on track to record its largest one-day percentage gain since January 17, 2017.
Despite the Australian dollar climbing to fresh three-month highs against the greenback, the Aussie has fallen sharply against the pound, sitting at 51.29 British pence, the weakest level since the UK Brexit referendum back in late June 2016.

Pakistan's nuclear weapons program
Islamic terror in Pakistan
Pakistan should never have been set up in the first place. Pakistan should not exist. Obviously I don't mean it should be razed to the ground. I mean it should have remained part of a larger, secular-state India. Under such a system, Pakistani Muslims would have more freedom and human rights than they have at present, not less.
It was a disaster for the world (and for Christians and Hindus and Ahmadis and secular Muslims in Pakistan) that this violent, repressive Muslim sectarian state was split off from India. Pakistan has been involved in near constant violence and oppression ever since, and today is one of the world's leading incubators of global Islamic terror. Al Qaeda and the Taliban currently have their best sanctuary in Pakistan.
Israel should exist. Pakistan should not exist.

Let�s first abolish Pakistan by Petra Marquardt-Bigman, 4 Oct 2013, points out that abolishing Pakistan makes far more sense than abolishing Israel. After decades of Pakistan promoting terror and oppression, "one could easily imagine that if Pakistan didn�t exist, the world might be a much better place� But of course, it is completely out of the question to entertain such a thought in polite company".
If Pakistan was abolished and folded back into India, its people would have more human rights not less.
I imagine that it is the no.1 taboo in Pakistan. That Pakistan was a bad idea. (No.2 is that Allah does not exist and Islam is false.)
2 year old Christian toddler Neha Munir was raped in Pakistan in April 2004 because her father would not convert to Islam.
Rapes and forced conversions of Christians and Hindus are common in Pakistan.
The little girl is damaged for life: "Neha might never be able to conceive a child as her internal soft organs are damaged."
The pedophile rapist, Abid Hussein, was imprisoned, but the family had to flee Pakistan under death threat.
They now live in freedom in Canada. As One Free World International says: "No longer having to live their lives in the shadows, Neha and her family are embracing their new lives in Canada, where they can practice their religion without fear of persecution or retaliation."

2012. Every year!
Human Rights Commission of Pakistan said that in 2011 alone, at least 943 women were murdered, 9 had their noses cut off, 98 were tortured, 47 set on fire and 38 attacked with acid.
Islamism and sex
Google ranks Pakistan No.1 in the world in searches-per-person for pornographic terms. A 2010 study shows that: "Pakistan is top dog in searches per-person for "horse sex" since 2004, "donkey sex" since 2007, "rape pictures" between 2004 and 2009, "rape sex" since 2004, "child sex" between 2004 and 2007 and since 2009, "animal sex" since 2004 and "dog sex" since 2005, according to Google Trends and Google Insights ... The country also is tops - or has been No.1 - in searches for "sex," "camel sex," "rape video," "child sex video" and some other searches that can't be printed here."
"goat sex". Pakistan top as at 2011.
Poll of Pakistanis, Aug 2009, shows how incredibly screwed up this country is.
78 percent of Pakistanis support death for apostates.
83 percent support stoning for adulterers.
On the other hand, there is increasing opposition to the Taliban as it threatens to take over Pakistan (despite the fact they agree with the Taliban on sharia).
In 2008, only 33 percent had a negative view of the Taliban. In 2009, this is up to 70 percent. Killing Afghans is fine, but not Pakistanis, it seems.
In 2008, only 34 percent had a negative view of Al Qaeda. In 2009, this is up to 61 percent. Killing Americans is fine, but not Pakistanis, it seems.
In 2004, an appalling 41 percent said suicide bombing that targets civilians in defense of Islam can often or sometimes be justified. In 2009, this is down to 5 percent. Finally think about it for 5 minutes, did you?
Pakistanis say India is a bigger threat to the nation than the Taliban or al Qaeda.
64 percent regard the U.S. as an enemy.
Religion as mental illness:
The floor tiles of a Pakistan bank look a bit like the word for "Allah". So Islamist religious maniacs respond in June 2011 by ... suicide bombing the bank! A bank guard was killed and four others were injured. The bank's president says there was never any intention to disrespect the fictional being: "We are Muslims and can never think of the disrespect to the name of Creator". But nothing is enough to satisfy the religious mania that Pakistan has been encouraging and supporting since its creation in 1947.
Jihad Watch points out the irony: "In a situation reminiscent of how rampages protesting the Florida Qur'an burning actually wound up burning untold numbers of Qur'ans as collateral damage, apparently blowing up what was taken to be Allah's name made up for the sacrilege of Allah's name appearing on the floor."
Persecution and killing of Ahmadis in Pakistan
The Special Cases: The Ahmadiyya on Jihad Watch.
The Ahmadis - unlike mainstream Islam - do genuinely appear to be peaceful and opposed to violence (jihad).
Persecution of Ahmadiyya

CUST university in Lahore expels Ahmadi student for "blasphemy", Nov 2011.
Pakistani police use black paint to cover up Koranic verses on Ahmadi graves, Aug 2012. Ahmadis are not allowed have Koranic verses on their graves because the state says they are not Muslim.
British Ahmadi man jailed for his faith in Pakistan, report, 1 Feb 2014. Faces 3 years in prison for practicing his faith in public.
Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (died 1908), founder of the Ahmadiyya branch of Islam.
As a result, mainstream Islam hates them, oppresses them and kills them.
They may be anti-jihad, but it is not clear the Ahmadis are anti-sharia. Ahmadis may themselves support oppression.
Wanting God to destroy critics of Islam:
The Ahmadis don't believe in jihad, but they want God to take violent action against critics of Islam. The head of the Ahmadis warns Geert Wilders, 19 Oct 2011, "that if he continued to defame Islam and the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) then he and other like-minded individuals would be humiliated by God Almighty. ... You, your party and every other person like you will ultimately be destroyed."
This will happen by Ahmadis praying, apparently. "His Holiness explained that the destruction of such individuals would be achieved through prayer alone ... We have no worldly power, nor will we ever use any worldly force."
So he wants God to carry out violence against critics of Islam, though he will not take action himself?
Apparently opposing free speech:
Making Islamic sense of free speech, 14 Jan 2013, by Harris Zafar, of Ahmadiyya Muslim Community USA.
Zafar attacks any speech that conflicts with the religion of Islam. Yet he seems not to want it banned. "Islam does not prescribe any worldly punishment for unseemly speech. So people who insult should not be persecuted."
If he really believes this, he needs to express it differently. He needs to clearly condemn Islamic blasphemy laws, and say that, while as a believer he of course hates speech insulting of his religion, free speech is an important principle of a free society and he believes in it.
He absurdly claims that the Prophet Muhammad tolerated free speech and criticism, which is clearly not true. But that is what one would expect a believer to say, I suppose.
Qasim Rashid of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community claims to be a "human rights activist".
Qasim Rashid defends shariah law, Nov 2011.
Qasim Rashid defends the wife-beating verse of the Koran, Mar 2012.
Qasim Rashid calls for shariah law in America, Mar 2013. "Dr. Qasim Rashid argued that cyber-bullying laws could be used to limit freedom of expression � such as the burning of Korans - in war time".
Incredibly, Ahmadis helped set up Pakistan, the state that oppresses them. What fools.
Muhammad Zafarullah Khan, an Ahmadi that foolishly helped found Pakistan, a Muslim state that oppresses Ahmadis.
Ahmadi leader Mirza Basheer-ud-Din Mahmood Ahmad foolishly encouraged Ahmadis to move from India (where they would be free) to Pakistan (where they would be oppressed).

an 11 year old Christian girl with Down's Syndrome arrested for "blasphemy" in Pakistan, Aug 2012.
Report says the local Christians were then threatened by Islamic extremists who wanted to burn down their village. 300 people left their homes and were in hiding due to the threats.
The police officer who arrested the child and jailed her said that: "150 people had gathered .. where the neighborhood's Christian population lived and threatened to burn down their houses. "The mob wanted to burn the girl to give her a lesson," he told CNN. Other Christian families living in the area have fled fearing a backlash, he added." So compared to the mob, this sharia-enforcing bastard is the good guy!
Muslims torture and murder 11-year-old Christian boy in Pakistan, Aug 2012. "His lips and nose had been sliced off, his stomach removed and there was evidence that his legs had been mutilated too." This seems to be related to the Rimsha Masih case.
Islamic suicide bombing of Christian church in Pakistan, Sept 2013, kills 80 Christians and injures 130. 40 children were killed by the satanic bombers. It was the deadliest single attack on Christians in the history of Pakistan.

Pakistan's nuclear weapons program (started 1972, success 1998)
The Axis of Evil
The patsy:
The main Pakistani nuclear weapons scientist A.Q. Khan is accused of spreading Pakistan's nuclear weapons technology to other dictatorships and terror states (notably Libya, Iran and North Korea). Absurdly, the various Prime Ministers and Presidents of Pakistan who ordered this proliferation got off scot free.
As if Pakistani scientists would spread nuclear weapons to other countries without permission (indeed, orders) from the government of Pakistan!
America sent billions in aid to their so-called "ally" Pakistan, and it funded the Taliban and spread nukes to America's worst enemies.
A.Q. Khan says the government ordered him to pass on nuke secrets to China, Iran, North Korea, Libya
Let's Buy Pakistan's Nukes, Bret Stephens, December 16, 2008. Proposes removing nuclear weapons from one of the world's leading incubators of terror in return for money.
"This is the deal I have in mind. The government of Pakistan would verifiably eliminate its entire nuclear stockpile and the industrial base that sustains it. In exchange, the U.S. and other Western donors would agree to a $100 billion economic package, administered by an independent authority and disbursed over 10 years, on condition that Pakistan remain a democratic and secular state (no military rulers; no Sharia law). It would supplement that package with military aid".
Pakistan is probably now the world's main incubator of Islamic terror.

groups in Pakistan (fighting to oppress Pakistanis):
Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan
Tehreek-e-Nafaz-e-Shariat-e-Mohammadi
Lashkar-e-Islam
Lashkar-e-Omar
Harkat-ul-Jihad-al-Islami
Harakat ul-Mujahedeen

Sipah-e-Sahaba Pakistan
Islamic Emirate of Waziristan
The disgusting, satanic violence of the Pakistan Taliban
Benazir Bhutto assassinated.
Salmaan Taseer assassinated.
Shahbaz Bhatti assassinated.
Pakistan is already an Islamic state with sharia law:
All of the Islamist terror groups above want the same thing - to oppress Pakistanis under the jackboot of sharia law. And the great irony is - Pakistan is already ruled by sharia law.
So why do the above fight and die, when their goal has already been met? It may surprise you that these poorly-educated religious maniacs are not driven by some sort of logical, well-thought-out grievance. Rather, the above groups kill ultimately because they like killing - because they have an ideology that loves killing, and doesn't know how to do anything else. Their violence is not because that is "the only way", or they are "poor", or "desperate", or they have tried everything else (or anything else). Rather, their ideology (Islamism) generates violence because that is its nature.
Or, in a nutshell, India is not the cause of the appalling Islamic terror problem in Pakistan. Pakistan is.
War in North-West Pakistan, 2004 to date.
Terror attacks in Pakistan
Whether Pakistan gets serious about the Islamist terror it has encouraged, now that it threatens Pakistan itself, remains to be seen.
America now carries out many attacks on jihadis in Pakistan, and despite much grumbling, Pakistan seems to tolerate this.
Interesting aside on how Pakistan thinks America is not doing enough killing inside Pakistan: "Islamabad has complained that America launches drone attacks only on Al-Qaeda suspects, not on the Pakistani Taliban."
Pakistan Taliban have killed 35,000 Muslims in 2007 to 2011.
Sunni terrorists in Pakistan murdered 456 Shiites in Jan-Nov 2012.
Pakistan continues to support the jihad that attacks it:
The Pakistan Taliban slaughters thousands in Pakistan. And yet there are regular suggestions that Pakistan is still supporting the Taliban in Afghanistan.
The classified Afghanistan papers leaked to Wikileaks apparently support the claim that both Pakistan and Iran are fuelling the insurgency in Afghanistan.
"US paying Pakistan to kill American troops" is one way of putting it. (Article about America's sleazy $1 billion a year support to Pakistan. How much of that goes to the Taliban?)
Wikileaks document says the U.S. military classified the ISI (Pakistan intelligence agency) as a terrorist support entity in 2007, and used association with it as a justification to detain prisoners in Guantanamo Bay.
Pakistan's interior minister, Dec 2011, "thanks" the Taliban for not bombing Shiites during Ashura, like they do every year. He thanks them! For not killing Shiites just once. And probably the only reason they didn't bomb Pakistani Shiites this year was because they went across the border to bomb Afghan Shiites!
Bin Laden was living in peace in Pakistan from 2005 to 2011 while they pretended to be an "ally" in the War on Terror. He lived in a nice house down the road from the Pakistan Military Academy.
Round-up of Pakistan's support for Bin Laden, and its fury at his capture.
Pakistan arrests those who betrayed Bin Laden to the Americans. It's pretty clear which side they're on. "instead of hunting down the support network that allowed Bin Laden to live comfortably for years, the Pakistani authorities are arresting those who assisted in the raid that killed the world�s most wanted man." | -0.666601 | 1.401773 | -0.911404 | 0.618211 | [

Hey folks! This is the LAST SUBMISSION PERIOD of the year! Here's some information about how the end of year stuff is going to work.
Last submission round
To give us enough time to really focus on culling down our current primary round winners, we're going to wrap up the last two months of the year with just voting. So, round 18 will end submissions in two weeks. Then we'll JUST be voting on these submissions for another two weeks.
What about submissions through the end of the year?
Unless anyone has any other ideas on how to do this, my plan for now is to allow submissions through the end of the year, after this round, but they will not be voted on until the first two weeks of next year. I'll simply open a temporary form for folks to submit sims in, which will remain there until January 1. Ratings will be allowed. Somehow, we'll cull down the list to 10 sims, and then vote on them in the first two weeks of the year. If you have other ideas, or comments on how this can be done fairly, post here.
How will run-offs work?
I had to cut out the last planned round of this year to allow for the extra sims as a result of tie votes we've had. In the future, there will be no more tie votes -- just runoffs. (Not sure what we'll do if there's another tie in a runoff, we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.) As such, final runoff round 1 will begin voting 11-03. (This info is all available on the Challenge Calendar.)
What I will do is list all the sims that have moved into the runoff phase. I will give each of them a number, with the first sim to win this year being #1, and the last sim to win being #20. I will then use the Random.org tool to choose a number between 1 and 20. This sim will be the first option in the first runoff round poll. I'll continue this way until we have ten sims in runoff round 1. If a number is selected twice by the random number generator, I'll simply request another number until a new number is chosen.
These ten sims will be posted in a poll similar to what we've done for each round. Links will be provided to each sim. Everyone will then vote on the best sim. The winning sim then advances to the final round.
For runoff round 2, I will re-number the remaining sims as #1 through #10. I will again use the Random.org tool to choose a number between 1 and 10. This sim will be the first sim in the second runoff round. I will continue this way until the order of the remaining ten sims have been chosen. (Doing this to ensure there is no bias in the way the sims are placed in the poll.)
Again, these ten sims will be posted in a poll. Everyone will vote, and the winning sim then advances to the final round.
How will the final round work?
In the final round, there will simply be two sims posted in a poll. I will use the Random.org tool to flip a virtual coin. The winning sim from runoff round 1 will be "Heads" and the winning sim from runoff round 2 will be "Tails". The winner will be the first option in the poll.
Voters will have the whole month of December to vote on the final two sims.
Round 1 Runoff Information:
Here's the list of sims by their number, duplicates include, which is why they don't correspond directly with the contest they won in:
1. "Stinging Truths" by Sidney Riley & Quinn Reynolds
2. "Monkey Work" by Ethan Brice
3. "Listen..." by Tyr Waltas
4. "LtCmdr. Ben Walker" by Ben Walker
5. "Officers at Work...Almost" by Jackford Kolk

Alienation of the colonised
Colonial alienation & Majeed Amjad & Marxian & Nasir Abbas Nayyar
Colonial alienation is a product of the overall process of colonising the society and the mind -- it is experienced at linguistic, cultural, historical and existential levels
Majeed Amjad in his poem 'Autograph' says:
[I am a stranger, possessing nothing to be remembered; on the plaque of my heart neither any image nor any name exists.]
This verse describes a general state of melancholy that takes hold of all of us at some juncture of our lives and usually passes without being validated. In reality, these lines depict an experience of alienation -- a kind of depressing estrangement from our own existence, the real world and the world of memories and history. In other words, a deepened state of hollowness, loneliness, worthlessness and separation has been described by a 20th century Urdu poet who lived an almost-secluded life. We know all kinds of seclusions are either products of socio-economic-historical conditions or existential ones.
Though alienation has been portrayed as an essential hallmark of modern life, its three distinct varieties can be mentioned.The first one is Marxist. According to the Marxian definition, alienation means an estrangement from what one does and from what one receives in return for their work. In simple terms, when a labourer fails to get material reward corresponding to his labour, he alienates himself from both the act and products of his labour. Having been deprived of a sense of being human, he then works like a machine -- relentlessly and inadvertently.
The second type of alienation is existentialist in nature. It was formulated by European existentialist writer-philosophers of 19th and 20th century; the likes of Kierkegaard, Sartre, Camus, Heidegger and others. Essentially philosophical in nature, this alienation places human existence at the centre of all human experiences. Humans are alienated from their own, individual, authentic selves. A line from Camus' Stranger that reads "He doesn't easily attach or identify with other people," describes the basic existentialist alienation. The absolute yet melancholic detachment from the world, society, its norms, values and views forms the basis of existentialist alienation.
Alienated people live in a strange, callous, indifferent world. Both Marxist and existentialist types of alienation are Euro-centric, defining how the capitalist, consumer western society has morphed its citizens into alienated beings.
Colonial alienation is the third type of alienation. Indeed, it shares some common characteristics -- particularly the theme of estrangement from true, authentic self -- with Marxian and existentialist alienation; yet it has its own distinctive type. It follows the layered experience of life that colonial subjects were forced to undergo. The moment someone acquires the role and of course marginalised position of a 'colonial subject', the very process of alienation starts.
A 'colonial subject' is not simply a new political identity imposed by imperial power over its subjects; rather it is a complex and gradual psychological process of attaining new subjectivities. The outlines of the colonial subjects' subjectivity are sketched in outside, imperial, estranged, Other's world. They feel compelled to desire that subjectivity -- an overall, commanding cognitive way to perceive the outside world and to determine preferences and relations between their inner and outer worlds. He or she is commanded, directed, and advised from the Other that inhabits doggedly within. In this way, the colonial subject is subject to alienation from their local, real, authentic self.
The 'colonial subject' is impelled to stay confined to the 'present' created by the coloniser. The 'present' acquires a particular place and necessarily hegemonic position in the overall design of colonialism.

of past memories and partly the misrepresentation of historical events, personalities, institutions. How Indian history was misinterpreted by ourEnglish masters is satirically emphasised by Shibli Nomani in his poem 'Hamar Tarz e Hukumat' [Our way of government]:
[You (the British rulers-cum-historians) have picked up from the whole story (of Muslim rule in India) just one thing: that Alamgir was cruel, heartless and killer of Hindus.]
Books of local authors are burned or banned on the pretext that they contain immoral, obscene materials. Likewise, libraries containing rare manuscripts are smouldered or looted in order to shift them to the imperial centre in the name of preservation. The dementia and hatred for the past paves the way to desire and celebrate the 'colonial-cum-modern' present.
As modernity is also based on the celebration of the present, the colonial subject falls prey to the illusion that they are on way to becoming a modern person. To embrace modernity has always been problematic for almost all colonial and postcolonial people. The thin line between modernity and coloniality has blurred because of discontinuity. To become modern, one essentially needs to experience discontinuity from past traditions and colonial people are forcibly discontinued and disconnected from their past. While modern people wilfully celebrate their present after being freed from the bondage of tradition, the colonised person is chained to the 'colonial present' and forced to detach and estrange himself from his past.
The colonised people live in a world of abstractions, ideologies, narratives, signs, symbols created and disseminated by colonial masters. Their emotions of love, hatred, loyalty, resistance or conformity are derived from these abstractions. In reality, both 'past' and 'present' are rather abstractions for them. Even their hate for the past is not about a 'real object', it is an imaginary, constructed past that becomes the 'object' of revulsion.
Colonial alienation is a product of the overall process of colonisation of society and mind. It is experienced at linguistic, cultural, historical and existential levels. So it becomes much more complicated and multi-layered. Colonised people are alienated from their own languages. First, their indigenous languages are deprived of playing any significant role in colonial administrative, economic, educational system -- a policy that perpetuates in the postcolonial era also. Then, they are made to believe that only the language of the centre i.e., English is capable of grasping and expressing the complex experience of present or coloniality-cum-modernity.
One can easily detect a latent and, in some cases, manifest hatred for indigenous languages among those who show an ardent desire for imperial language -- a clear sign of an alienated person. Interestingly, they deplore the deprivation of indigenous languages mostly in the language of imperial centre but it is rare that they use them for their creative and academic expression. The imperial centre keeps haunting the colonially alienated people even after being freed from the colonial power. They wish to be acknowledged, awarded and admired by that centre.
The answer to why the 'colonially alienated persons' abhor using their indigenous languages for a creative and academic purpose doesn't lie in the belief that these languages are structurally incapable, but in how their sense of personhood or subject is formed while they use these languages. Our sense of being individual is not just formed passively in a language but in the dynamic relation that the language establishes to a particular moment while we communicate through it.
So, the sense of being individual doesn't remain the same while we communicate in English, Urdu, Punjabi, Sindhi, Balochi, Saraiki, Brahvi, Pashto, Balti etc. with people we know well or with strangers in university campuses, conferences, media, academia, restaurants and shopping malls or at homes and abroad. Except in our homes, the indigenous language speakers' sense of being individual is surrounded by a strong feeling of alienation.
MunirNiazi's poem 'Ik aur ghar bhi tha mera' [I had another home too] describes the multi-layered estrangement the colonial subject is destined to suffer. Its narrator emerges like a dehumanised object, deprived of home, family, history, culture and | 1.526249 | 0.45095 | 1.15056 | 1.487068 | [

The key to a successful virtual desktop environment
If you think you're starting desktop virtualization from scratch, you're wrong. These tools can help you determine how to best move an existing environment to VDI.
The key to being successful with desktop virtualization is knowing what you're dealing with. You have to know your starting point.
It's easy think this is not important for things like creating a new virtual desktop environment from scratch. "What starting point?" you might think. "We've never done desktop virtualization before, so we don't have an existing environment to deal with."
If you think like this, then you've already failed before you've begun.
Why? Every enterprise has an existing environment. Even though your organization may not yet have virtual desktops, it does have desktops. And staffers already use Windows, applications and IT infrastructure.
The biggest mistake people make is assuming that they know everything that users will want to do. They think they know which apps the users need and how they'll use them. They assume they know how intense users are.
But the reality is most desktop IT folks don't know these things ahead of time, and many desktop virtualization migration projects have failed because the virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) built as designed couldn't handle the actual applications and usage patterns of enterprise users.
So, what can you do about this?
Simple. It's critical to know what your "before" environment looks like. Find out who uses what and how they use each app. Fortunately, there are a few great software tools to help you.
Let's first take a look at Lakeside Software's SysTrack VMP (Virtual Migration Planner). Those who have been working with Citrix for a long time remember Lakeside as the company that created Citrix Resource Manager in the 1990s for tracking the status of Citrix MetaFrame Servers.
Now, more than 10 years later, SysTrack VMP has an agent that goes on existing pre-VDI physical desktops to track usage patterns. From there, you can load SysTrack's modeler tool, which lets you see how different VDI designs would perform based on actual, real-world usage. (For instance, you can track terminal server versus VDI, virtualized apps versus native apps, and big servers versus smaller ones.)
Another company in the virtual desktop analysis and modeling business is Liquidware Labs. It was started by the former executives of a services firm that was sold to VMware. Liquidware's Stratusphere Fit also assesses your current desktop environment, taking into consideration users, apps, network, storage, etc. From there, you can move to its design studio to figure out which options might make sense for your virtual desktop environment.
A third product worth looking at is App-DNA's AppTitude. Unlike the software from Lakeside and Liquidware, AppTitude focuses on application compatibility. App-DNA offers a similar client agent that analyzes all the applications that are in use. But what AppTitude does with that data is really what sets it apart from the other two: Once App-DNA learns which apps everyone is using, it analyzes what the apps actually do (both via heuristics and a database of known software). It then provides you with a chart of which apps will work fine in a new environment and which will have problems.
For example, App-DNA can show you all the applications with 16-bit components that will not run on a newer x64 Windows OS. Furthermore, App-DNA will show which apps can be virtualized via Microsoft App-V, Citrix XenApp streaming or VMware ThinApp. It says whether each app is compatible, compatible with remediation or known problems, or flat-out not compatible.
In a perfect world, you'd choose Lakeside or Liquidware and then use that product with App-DNA. Of course, all of these products cost money, but they're all well worth it. You should get your investment back many times over with the success your desktop virtualization project will enjoy after properly planning your environment.

FC Amkar Perm
"Happiness is not behind the mountains – it's behind the fences." The new uniform of "Amkar" breaks through concrete walls.
"Nothing ordinary" was inspired by the industrial motives of Perm city.
Do you remember Amkar, which played in the Premier League for 15 years and even entered the Europa League?In 2018, the club disappeared due to financial problems, but last year it was revived in the Second League under the name "Amkar Perm".
The recreated Amkar has kept the old traditions (for example, red and black colors), but completely rethought the brand (from the logo to the overall strategy).
A vivid illustration of the club's fresh approach is a joint collection with the creative association "Nothing Ordinary", which is known for collaborations with Lokomotiv, as well as media and professional clubs "Vitebsk", "Kaluga", "Cosmos", "Fc10" and "Egrisi".
The uniform refers to Soviet fences. Why?The new third set of Amkar unifrom is inspired by the symbol of any post–Soviet city - the reinforced concrete fence PO-2. Yes, the same concrete slab with lozenges on it that we all know from the childhood."Just look around: these "cold patterns" will find you. Without a concrete fence, it is difficult to imagine Perm and the appearance of the country," the description says.The mission of "Nothing Ordinary" is to create a culture of football, within which there are no borders and prejudices.In addition to the game uniform, the collection also includes merch for fans like T-shirts and hoodies.
On a black T-shirt, the pentagonal fence element resembles a heart.The founder of the project, football player Daniil Chalov, explains the idea: "With this collection, we want to "mix" cold concrete and hot feelings with each other. We want to make the fences move. Fences are decorations, a shell, just a pattern of the outside world. In fact, there are no fences inside each of us. Remember that."Amkar has already played in a new set – the debut turned out to be successful: a week ago, team in "concrete" T-shirts beat FC Nosta 1-0 at home.One of the main symbols of modern Perm is the art object "Happiness is not behind the mountains". The head of the club 's development department Andrey Blaginykh rethought the phrase: "Perm is an industrial city in the very center of the country. A city of factories and fences in the midst of fantastic nature – ancient mountains and rivers. With this collection we want to remind you: happiness is not behind the mountains – happiness is behind the fence inside the stadium. Happiness is where the game goes."
Perm is a city of concrete fences?
Yes, this is the most important part of the urban landscape. For many years, the project "Long Stories of Perm" has been held there — the largest festival of contemporary art on concrete fences, where artists with the help of drawings gave gray fences a new life.By the way, the same concrete fence surrounds "Zvezda" - the home stadium of "Amkar".
Fences as a symbol of isolation.
The second name of the fence plate (PO-2) is the Lakhman fence. This is because the design of fences in the 1970s was developed by the Soviet, and since 1981 by the American architect Boris Lakhman.
The department, which was then headed by Lakhman, was engaged in industrial design, in the USSR called "technical aesthetics". In 1974, he received a bronze medal of VDNH and a prize of 50 rubles for the design of that fence. However, Lakhman later said that of all the projects that he came up with during the Soviet period of his life, only fences turned out to be implemented.
"There are many reasons for this, including a lack of funding," the architect admitted. "I left in search of personal freedom."

Welcome to the MTS Foundations Contest! This is intended as a fun contest that anyone can join - even if you don't think you're a great builder/decorator! Challenge yourself, and see what fun stuff others come up with, too!
Please do not post an entry on this thread if you are not on the contestant list! You must be a Round 1 contestant to continue to rounds 2, 3, and 4. However, you can still post your entry in the Chat Thread!
You are building a residential lot, on the foundation given. One foundation per round - four foundations total, so you'll be building four houses for this contest, one per week.
While you are welcome to get as creative as you want in structure and style, you may not touch the foundation (besides adding textures to it) - you have to build around it. It's the "footprint" of the lot.
You can build more than that if you like and have room for it - if you want to make it a 6 bedroom house with a rec room and study and garage (or whatever you want), go for it - you may not be able to show off everything for the contest though.
You may build as many stories up as you want - it can be a single level house or more, your choice.
You CANNOT add a basement, as this may require modification of the foundation. No, you can't add a WA non-foundation basement either.
You do not have to cover the entire foundation in walls - if you want to leave part as a porch or whatever, you may.
You may use build cheats such as constrainFloorElevation and moveObjects as long as you do not modify the foundation with them. It must stay the same height and shape.
You may not use split levels to extend or modify the footprint of the lot as an alternative to using foundations. Nor can you do floating floor tiles to extend the footprint. The supplied foundation is the footprint you must use - that's why it's the theme of the contest, and not just "build whatever you want on a 30x30".
You may not rotate the foundation on the lot, or put it on a larger lot. It needs to stay on a 30x30, with the front as shown in the images (bottom of the picture is the front of the lot).
You can add a carport, garage, pool, gazebo, etc., as long as it does not modify the foundation, and as long as it doesn't add additional buildable living space - if you add an attached garage, for instance, it needs to just be for the parking space, and you can't build rooms on top of it attached to the main house.
There is no limit on the price of the lot in-game.
You'll need to be taking pictures of your lots you've built so we can see what you've made. Please make sure these images are AT LEAST 800x600 pixels so we can see them clearly. You may use larger images if you wish.
Photoshopping: This contest is focusing on your building and decorating skills - not your Photoshopping skills. For this reason, please do not do any significant modifications to your pictures in Photoshop or similar image editors - you may crop, add a little text, borders, etc... but please keep it to an absolute minimum.
Required Pics: For each round, you will be doing several pictures. Please do not collage your pictures together.
You may move sims into the house to make picture taking easier. The sims may appear in the pictures if you want - or not, it's up to you.
Street View: One picture of the lot from the outside, from the front, with all the levels showing, from a sim's eye view.
Floor Plans: One picture of each level of the lot, from a high overhead view. If you have multiple levels, you may post these collaged together into a single image, or as separate images - your choice.
Living Room: One picture of the living room, from a sim's eye view.
Kitchen: One picture of the kitchen, from a sim's eye view.
Bedroom: One picture of one of the bedrooms, from a sim's eye view.
Three Bonus Pics: You may post up to three additional photos of whatever part of your lot you want to show off - another one of the bedrooms, a c | -0.822744 | -0.905452 | -0.037669 | -1.13056 | [

ute bathroom, the garden, whatever. These can also be additional angles of the living room, kitchen, or bedroom. Whatever you want.
To focus on your skills at building and decorating and not your downloadaholicism, we're giving you a limit: No more than 10 pieces of custom content used on each lot! And there's a scoring bonus for using no CC (see below).
If you DO use CC... you'll need to list what CC you've used, so we can count up for scoring - you don't have to have a link/credit, just indicate that it is CC, i.e. "CC used: Dining chair, dining table, custom pattern on table and chair"
A "piece" of custom content is: One particular item in the catalog. You can use any particular item as many times as you want and it still just counts as one. For example, one custom dining chair, used four times, would be 1 piece. Using its matching custom table would make it 2 pieces. Applying a custom pattern to them would make it 3 pieces. A custom counter and its matching island, and overhead cabinet would be 3 pieces.
EP/SP/Store content: Does NOT count as CC. You may use any items from the base game, World Adventures, Ambitions, High End Loft Stuff, and/or the Store content. As long as it's official stuff, you can use it as much as you like with no scoring penalty. We realize this may give a bit of an advantage to people with more official stuff, but it's just too much of a pain to score otherwise.
Free/Pay: Doesn't matter for this contest. While we always encourage people to use free content and support free sites, if you choose to use CC, you may use pay items for this contest. Of course, if you would like to upload your house to MTS when the contest is over, make sure you use all free stuff!
Scoring Bonuses: For using no CC or low CC, there is a scoring bonus for each round. See the "scoring" section below for details.
Structure - Interesting architecture, unique interior layout, uses the foundation well, good roofing, etc. - 10 points.
Decor/Furnishings - Well decorated and furnished (furniture, paintings, etc.) inside and out - 10 points.
Landscaping - Trees, bushes, plants, ponds, etc. which add to the look of the lot - 10 points.
Theme - Lot has a cohesive theme or style which works together with the architecture. You may choose any theme or style you want (even if that's just "contemporary"), but try to keep it somewhat consistent through the house - 10 points.
Aesthetic - Attractive, nice colours, good flow, looks pretty - 10 points.
Presentation - Good pictures, good angles, well-presented, interesting text descriptions - 10 points.
Wow Factor - Not just a house but a really GREAT house, over and above anyone's expectations - 10 points.
At the end of all of the rounds, we will add up each participant's score for all the rounds (your total score). Whoever has the highest score wins.
This is a NO ELIMINATION contest. This means that even if you have the lowest score in a round, you can still continue with the contest. While there will be a winner and runners-up, the main point of this contest is to be a fun challenge to your building and decorating skills.
Judging will be done by MTS staff and will be scored based on various points (detailed above).
Judge comments are optional - judges are not required to make comments, but they may if they wish. PM me after scores are posted for each round if you would like me to PM you your judge comments.
First Place: A one-time change of custom user title (of your choice), a specially-created unique avatar, and a "Contest Winner!" achievement on your profile.
Second & Third Place: A specially-created unique avatar.
All contest participants will get an achievement for doing so (including those with the highest scores).
If you would like to donate an additional prize to the winners, please PM me.
Each round lasts 1 week from the time of the round being posted There will be a total of four rounds, with a different foundation to build on each round, so the contest will last 4 weeks (if no extensions are given). Extensions will only be | -0.316478 | -1.205382 | -0.453147 | -1.248272 | [

given if more than 20% of participants ask for more time to finish up their entries - but I don't mind holding the thread open for an extra hour or so after a deadline, if you drop into #create and poke me to let me know you're almost ready to post.
Want to enter this contest? Great! Even though Round 1 has finished, even if you didn't get a spot in the contest, you can still participate in the Chat Thread!
1. Download and install the lot, attached to the third post in this thread. Double-click the sims3pack, open the Launcher and make sure it's properly installed to your game.
2. Load up the game, and place the lot from the lot bin into your neighborhood, on any 30x30 lot. There's at least a few in Sunset Valley.
3. Build your lot. Remember the rules above - the footprint of the house you build has to stay the same as the foundation - no adding or removing any part of the foundation or changing the footprint by other means. Build it up and finish it like you would any lot - walls, furnishings, lights, plants, beds, paintings, etc., in any theme or style of your choosing.
4. Take the required pictures and up to three bonus pictures (listed above) to the best of your abilities. Don't Photoshop them too severely (if at all).
5. Upload the pictures to any image host - Tinypic, Photobucket, Flickr, or Modyourpanties.
6. Start a new reply post here on this thread - click Go Advanced, and you can just click the little "Insert Image" icon in the toolbar, or just copy-paste the image location into some [img] tags. Make sure you put all your required images.
7. Write a description for your lot. How much you write, what you write, and formatting is entirely up to you - you can write captions for each picture, or a blurb at the beginning, or both, or whatever, as long as there is some text to go along with your lot. Make sure to mention somewhere in the text whether or not you've used CC - and if you have, what items are CC and how many there are, in bold! This will make scoring a lot easier for the staff!
8. Submit your post - doing so will submit your entry. If you need to edit or make changes to your post, you may, up until the time limit for the round. After that, no changes may be made to your entry.
If you won't be able to participate in all four rounds, didn't get a spot for round 1, or don't want to follow the rules exactly, or just want to build but not compete, or just want to chat about the entries, please post in our Chat Thread!

If you want to do more than one entry, please post your official entry here, and any additional ones in the Chat Thread! This thread is only for people on this list though - please do not post new entries here if you are not on this list!
Contestants in strikethrough have withdrawn from the contest. Contestants in italics are still missing entries for this round.
Contest entries are now closed - you can not enter anymore! Very sorry if you missed out - but you can still post your entries in the Chat Thread. Whoever gets the most "agrees" per round (by the time each round is closed - and this won't happen early from now on!) will get a special mention in the contest.

Attached is a sims3pack containing Foundation #3, as well as a screenshot of that foundation. It is on a 30x30 lot (as all the foundations for this challenge will be) so it should be easy to place in your existing neighborhood.
Please note that the front of the lot is the bottom of the image shown - see the sidewalk and mailbox at the bottom of the image? When you place the lot in-game, make sure that side is the front! There will be a scoring penalty if you get the lot the wrong way 'round.
Round 3 ends on Friday, August 6th at 10:00 AM CEST!
Round 3 has been extended by 24 hours to give everyone a chance to finish.

Dear Dr. Buitenhuis
Your manuscript has been examined by three reviewers. All of them have have recommended extensive revision. I encourage you to kindly go through the reviews carefully and if you think you can address the issues raised by them, we will be willing to consider a revision that will have to be sent out to the same referees.

This paper includes some valuable calculations and the authors have made some good progress toward clarifying their methodology. However, some of the methodological details remain difficult to follow. It also appears that the authors have used only a small subset of the available pN2O data in MEMENTO, for reasons that aren't clear. This subset appears to have a summertime bias in the South Atlantic and a wintertime bias in the North Atlantic. Since pN2O is the one of the main constraints used in the model optimization, these seasonal biases may affect the results.
I support publication of this paper in principle, but before it is ready I still think there are a number of details that should be clarified and sections of text that could be written more clearly.
Specific comments
p2L32. The text here mentions 4 methods. Are these 4 enumerated in the lines that follow? For example, is the following method 1,"We extend the global ocean biogeochemistry model PlankTOM10 with additional N cycle processes."? Or are these additional approaches (it seems like there are more than 4 total)? Please start the sentences with transition words like, "First", "Second" instead of just "We" to make this clear. Is the sentence on line35 starting with "Then" approach # 3? If so, please use "Third" This is a key paragraph where the authors lay out what the paper will do, yet I am already lost.
P3L30/P4L1. There are a lot more deep and surface N2O data in MEMENTO than the reported n=8047 and n=6136 mentioned here. Were only a subset of the available data selected and why? Also, were the surface data generally in units of ppb and the deep data in nmol/L?
P4L4 Are deep data converted to delta_pN2O or just the surface data? If deep data are converted too, please mention that this necessitates first converting the deep nM data to ppb using a solubility function. This is a large uncertainty. The statement "we have taken the database at face value" is inadequate for conveying the extent of the uncertainties involved in combining nM and ppb data in equation 3.
P.4 Section 2.4 (Nitrification) and p5 Section 2.5 (NH4+ uptake) appear to be databases 1 and 2 of the 4 mentioned. I was expecting 2.6 then to be MEMENTO deep N2 | -0.584421 | 0.304118 | 0.562152 | 1.050038 | [

P4L27. Does Yool provide an actual data base, or simply assume a constant rate of 0.2 /day everywhere (as written, the sentence implies the latter)?
Section 2.4. Given that a cost function of 2 means that, on average, the model deviates from the observations by a factor 2 (Section 2.3), does this paragraph suggest that the model deviates from observations by a factor of > 4 on average? In other words, it provides no real constraint. Shouldn't that be stated explicitly somewhere in this section? Is there any meaningful difference between a cost function of 4.22 and 4.16?
P5L34. So, the diagnostic model dN2O/AOU ratios are not optimized against the MEMENTO database using the cost function? The intro and the mention of the 4 datasets had led me to expect they would be.
P6L11-12 "We indenpendently optimised the ratios of N2O production and consumption from denitrification" These are minor terms in the budget compared to N2O production from nitrification. Why wasn't that ratio/coefficient optimized?
P6L14 "The ratios of both submodels were optimized using the databases of observed N2O concentration and pN2O" Is this referring to the deep N2O or the surface N2O data or both?
Figure 3 caption. Please specify where these values are from (model, MEMENTO, etc).
Figure 3 annotation shows 0.0815 + 2.7551, but this is reported on p3L15 as 81.5 ± 1.4 μmol/mol. First, the error has completely changed. Second, there is a switch from nmol N2O and umol AOU in the figure to units of umol/mol in the text, with a factor of 1000 thrown in to add to the confusion. Better to be consistent across figure and text.
Figure 6/Section 2.5. The model is credited with reproducing "the large scale pattern of surface NH+4 concentration (which) shows an increase with latitude." However, the performance seems pretty poor and the pattern could equally well be described as high in the Southern Ocean (where nutrient utilization is known to be low) and around continental boundaries where there is nutrient input from land. Similar to Section 2.4, the cost function of 3 seems quite large and suggests there's no real constraint here.
Figure 9 and 11 caption and Equation 5 on p. 6. What does MSE stand for? Please spell it out in all these places. (The captions should be understandable without referring back to the text.)
Section 2.8 Should Equation 6 be presented before 5? It seems like 5 builds upon the definition of MSE introduced in Eq 6.
P7L26. I'm confused by the use of "even though" here. Given that the prognostic model represents N2O consumption in the OMZ, why would that be expected to improve (i.e., increase) the concentration of N2O between 200 and 1500m?
P8L5-7. These sentences belong in the methodology. Also, as mentioned above, why isn't the nitrification N2O/NO3 ratio optimized too? That seems like the most important term in the model.
P8L14 I would suggest writing as 0.183 mmol N2O, to avoid switching units, which is confusing for the reader.
P8L16-17. "pN2O provided a better constraint than the N2O concentration distribution" Back in Section 2.2, deep N2O is mentioned as dataset number 3 used to optimize the fluxes. The sentence just cited suggests that deep N2O is not actually used. Please clarify.
Figure 10a) This figure represents only 6136 data points (I think there are a factor of 10 more surface N2O data in MEMENTO than that), yet the figure suggests extensive coverage of the global ocean, and near complete coverage in the Atlantic.

? It seems like a single data point has been expanded as a ~5x5 pixel, which implies much better coverage than may really exist. Also, what is the seasonal distribution of the data? I suspect the South Atlantic data are all from austral summer, while the North Atlantic data are mainly from fall/winter. I don't think the Atlantic is undersaturated to the extent implied by this figure on an annual basis. Can the data be binned by season and plotted in a 4 panel plot?
Figure 10b) Following on the above comment, it is confusing to plot the "same months where there are observations, and annual averages everywhere else," especially if there are strong seasonal biases that differ by region. I would again suggest 4 panel seasonal plot for the model results.
Figure 10b) Also, the red contours appear to smear over the black continents.
Figure 10d) Please make green and red lines thicker. They are illegible.
Figure 11. Are the different symbols (0.06, 0.11, 0.17, 0.34 for A) and (0.07, 0.12, 0.17, 0.34 for B) essentially the same thing or is the similarity in numbers pure coincidence? If the former, why the slight differences (e.g., 0.06 v. 0.07) and inconsistent shapes? Also, why does A say "different symbols indicate different low O2 ratios" while B says "points with the same symbols have different N2O ratios for nitrification." I thought the nitrification ratio was not optimized.
P8L23-24. This implies that the oxic nitrification ratio is optimized, at least in the prognostic model. Yet as far as I can tell, the Methods only describe optimizing the denitrification and suboxic N2O parameters.
P8L23 and L32. Are deep offshore and near-shore non-coastal synonymous? Please use consistent terminology to avoid confusion.
P9L8 Again, it is important to know whether the surface pN2O data used were originally in ppb units or in nM. If the latter, these measurements likely have an uncertainty of +/- 0.5 nM or more, such that the 3% cited here (which may be accurate for the solubility function per se) greatly understates the actually uncertainty in ppb due to the solubility conversion.
P9L19-20 "In light of this, we decided to recalculate the N-cycle-based N2O production based on currently available data. We find that we can estimate all the relevant steps in the N cycle with observational data" These seem like non sequiturs. The logic here is difficult to follow.
P9L26 NO3- is the electron ACCEPTOR in denitrification. Organic C is the electron donor.
P9L28. "this estimate" Better to restate the numbers, e.g., 4.6 +/- 3.1 vs. 2.5 +/- 0.8. More importantly, these two errors are estimated in very different ways, such that it is not clear they are directly comparable. The authors are comparing a global back-of-the-envelope calculation, with large global errors on any given parameter, to a more grid-specific calculation. Of course the latter will have smaller uncertainty.
P9L30. Please use "further" only once in this sentence and perhaps break into 2 sentences.
P9L30 What does "their" refer to?
Discussion section in general. The writing and organization of thoughts could use improvement. Please avoid starting sentences with "This" unless the antecedent is clear.
Please see the attached report.
Referee Report: PDF
ED: Reconsider after major revisions (23 Dec 2017) by S. Wajih A. Naqvi
Your revised manuscript has now been examined by two of the original referees. It is evident from the reports that while the revision has led to substantially improvement still several issues remain to be addressed. Referee 2 has in particular made some important points that must be addressed before a decision is taken on its publication. In her/his opinion, some of the methodological details are still not clear. S/he is also concerned about the use of only a small subset of the available data in MEMENTO that introduces seasonal bias.

AR by Anna Wenzel on behalf of the Authors (26 Jan 2018) Author's response
ED: Referee Nomination & Report Request started (28 Jan 2018) by S. Wajih A. Naqvi
RR by Anonymous Referee #2 (23 Feb 2018)
The paper is much improved, although I still find that the description of the optimization of N2O production via nitrification in well-oxygenated waters is somewhat unclear. However, I'm ready to support publication with a few minor revisions.
p2L27-. This paragraph, in which the authors lay out what the paper will do, is greatly improved and now provides a clear blueprint of what to expect.
P3L13 uses => used
P4L2-3 It was very useful to clarify that the 227463 raw data points reduce to only 6136 on a 1x1x12 grid. By my calculations, assuming that 60-70% of grid cells are ice free ocean, this means that only 6136/(360x180x12*~0.65) = ~1% of possible monthly 1x1 grid cells have an N2O measurement. I think this lack of coverage should be mentioned somewhere, perhaps near the presentation of Figure 10b, which conveys the impression of extensive coverage, especially in the Atlantic Ocean. (It is good that the Fig 10 caption mentions the 5x5 pixels, but I think the lack of coverage needs to be acknowledged more explicitly.)
P6L16 indenpendently misspelled
Figure 9. Please explain in the caption what the different symbols and values are. Are these consumption rates? Please give units.
P8 Section 3. An ongoing point of confusion for me is why the Results only mention the N2O production at low O2. What about the N2O production at higher O2 and total oceanic N2O production? I guess this is explained on p8 29-33, but perhaps make the point more clearly by saying something like, "We used the surface ∆pN2O distribution to constrain N2O production via nitrification in well-oxygenated waters and thus (by summing with the N2O production at low O2 described in Section 3.1), the total global N2O flux, …"
P9 paragraph 2. It's not clear what the point of this paragraph is. Is it to argue that coastal areas are not strong sources of N2O? The MEMENTO surface pN2O dataset includes few data in the coastal region, so the calculations in Table 2 may not be well constrained.
P9L27 it's => its
Fig. 10 I still find it very confusing to plot the model results as annual averages in general but as the same month as observations where there are data (what happens if there are obs in 2 or more months in a given grid? Is an average of those months plotted?) For this reason, I recommend including the sets of 4 panel plots provided in the review response in the Supplementary Information. Also, based on those 4 panel plots, there appear to be strong summertime maxima in model dpN2O in both hemispheres. Please comment on whether this is due to enhanced production in summer or simply to thermal effects.
P9 last paragraph. Please provide more information about Cohen and Gordon's calculation. How was it based on N assimilation? What was their total estimate?
P10L4 "nitrification, which uses O2 as the electron acceptor."
P10L5 "needed to nitrify NH4+ to NO3-, the electron acceptor"
P10L21 Is N really in the 0 and +2 states in N2O? I thought both Ns were in the +1 state.
P10L35/P11L1. This claim is not obviously supported by Figures 10-12. The fact that the depth profiles are significantly off seems like a red flag that low O2 production is underestimated, given how sparse the surface dpN2O data are and their sensitivity to air-sea transfer assumptions.
P12 Paragraph 2. This is mainly a repeat of the previous paragraph

Ethics man
BritainMay 16th 1998 edition
IS IT possible that Britain's diplomats have been experimenting lately with Viagra, the wonder drug from Pfizer? They show none of the fading powers normally associated with a great nation past its prime. In Sierra Leone in February West African troops restored to power the democratically elected President Kabbah, who had been most cruelly deposed in a military coup the year before. Now it transpires that Britain may have made a more potent contribution than previously acknowledged to this happy turn of events. Indeed, Tony Blair went out of his way this week to praise the role of Peter Penfold, the man seemingly plucked directly from the pages of a Graham Greene novel to serve as Her Majesty's high commissioner in the diamond-rich former colony.
It is therefore a puzzle that none of this has so far had an uplifting impact on the career prospects of Robin Cook. This, after all, is a man who has stressed since becoming foreign secretary that he intended to preside over an ethical foreign policy. You might expect such a man to enjoy the spectacle of virtue armed and democracy restored. The snag is that Mr Cook has imposed upon himself a more stringent test of ethical diplomacy. He asks: armed by whom? Restored by what means? And in the case of Sierra Leone, he has from the start answered both questions with perfect clarity: Britain wanted President Kabbah restored by peaceful means, and to receive no arms from anyone until then. To this end, Britain itself helped to draft a peculiar UN Security Council resolution that seems to impose an arms embargo on both the lawful regime and its usurper.
Whether such a policy is practical, still less ethical, is open to question. Willing the end without willing the means undoubtedly strikes some seasoned foreign-policy officials as a policy more pious than it is moral. But speculation such as this are now beside the point so far as judging Mr Cook's subsequent actions in the Sierra Leone affair is concerned. The real point is that Britain had enunciated and written into law a clear policy of outlawing arms supplies to either side. So when it transpired that a British firm called Sandline may have been breaking this law—with the knowledge and approval, the firm's lawyers then claimed, of the foreign and other offices of state—this was indeed a serious matter, as Mr Cook said last week, and not, as Mr Blair said disgracefully a few days later, "an overblown hoo-hah".
Perhaps—and ominously for the long-term future of Mr Cook—Mr Blair and his advisers manufactured this particular soundbite because they had in mind Mr Cook's general performance as foreign secretary. Given his previous reputation as one of Labour's most able politicians he has provided Downing Street with more than his fair share of hoo-hahs for its spin doctors to deflate. They said the hoo-hah over his sacking of his diary secretary, allegedly to create a job for his mistress, was overblown. They said the hoo-hah over the abandonment of his wife, and his marriage to his mistress, allegedly on the orders of the prime minister's press spokesman, was overblown. The hoo-hah in the tabloids over his wearing a green anorak at the wedding was certainly overblown. And they said that his catastrophic visit to India last October was overblown, as was the hoo-hah over his catastrophic visit to Israel earlier this year.
Maybe Mr Cook is just unlucky. Why should he not divorce and remarry, wearing whatever garb he pleases? Why should he not remind the Israelis that their West Bank settlements are illegal, or the Indians that Kashmir wants self-determination? His problem is that it is an iron law of hoo-hahs that a cabinet minister who stirs up too many of them comes to be seen by his prime minister as a liability. Clearly, Mr Cook is now dangerously close to that position. But, equally clearly, this does not mean that he is about to be sacked. On the contrary: his job may for a while be more than usually secure.
Consider. For Mr Blair to dismiss him before hearing the result of two inquiries—one by the customs authorities and then another one conducted at Mr Cook's behest by an independent person—would be to flout natural justice | 0.981118 | 0.25398 | -0.349309 | 0.443919 | [

everywhere but on May 4th the stars align for those who live and breathe every moment of the Star Wars saga. This day is a special opportunity to celebrate all things in that "galaxy far, far away" and, of course, to say, "May the 4th Be With You!" For the second year in a row, Her Universe?, the leading sci-fi merchandise line for fangirls, is teaming up with Hot Topic to offer new exclusive Star Wars dresses and fashion tops created by actress and entrepreneur Ashley Eckstein, voice of Ahsoka Tano from Star Wars: The Clone Wars.
On May 4th, the popular Star Wars By Her Universe line will debut six new fashion pieces exclusively on Hottopic.com. The first 500 customers who purchase a Star Wars by Her Universe item online at Hottopic.com beginning at 1am PST on May 4th will receive a FREE Star Wars by Her Universe cinch sack. In addition, all day on May 4th, Hottopic.com and Starwars.com (the official Star Wars website), and their social media sites, will celebrate this special fan holiday with fan-themed content and giveaways.
"I am thrilled to be working with Hot Topic again to celebrate May the 4th Be With You," said Ashley Eckstein. "I am also excited to debut a new design with one of our favorite guest designers, Denise Vasquez. Denise brought her unique 'Day of the Dead' inspired style to a new design featuring Boba Fett."
With the growing audience of female Star Wars fans, Hot Topic and Her Universe have a number of new tops and, for the first time, Star Wars by Her Universe dresses to offer them. The new Hot Topic apparel line features popular villains Boba Fett and Darth Vader as well as fan favorite Rebels Han Solo, Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia.
In celebration of "May the 4th Be with You," Her Universe will also offer 20% off of all current Star Wars apparel on http://www.HerUniverse.com on May 4th (Hot Topic product only available on Hottopic.com). In addition, while visiting the Her Universe website, fans can also view the past and present honoree's for "fangirl of the day" - part of a very special year-long campaign, the "Year of the Fangirl," which spotlights and recognizes fangirls of all ages showing their diversity, dreams and interests. Anyone can nominate a fangirl to be highlighted on the site. Go to http://www.HerUniverse.com for more information.
About Her Universe
Her Universe was launched in 2009 by actress and entrepreneur Ashley Eckstein, and her partner, The Araca Group, known as one of the most innovative theatrical production and merchandise companies in the world. Her Universe was created to directly address the expanding market of female fans by entering into its first agreement with Lucas Licensing to develop and produce a line of female-centered Star Wars apparel and accessories. The success of that line was followed up with a collection for the Syfy network including such shows as Battlestar Galactica and with BBC Worldwide for Doctor Who and with CBS Consumer Products for Star Trek.

Happy Birthday, Uncle Sam!
In 19th Century America, U.S. History, War of 1812
Earlier this week, on September 7, Uncle Sam turned 203 years old!
I always thought Uncle Sam was only a nickname, a personification for the United States. But I recently found out there is a real person behind the name.
So who is the real Uncle Sam?
Samuel Wilson, along with his brother Ebeneezer, began a meat packing business in Troy, New York. Samuel was considered outgoing and friendly, and became well known in Troy and the surrounding areas as "Uncle Sam." Their enterprise was highly successful and soon the brothers purchased their own dock and sloops, as well as land to raise produce and pasture animals headed for the slaughterhouse.
During the War of 1812, the Wilson's were subcontracted by Elbert Anderson, Jr. to supply five thousand barrels of pork and beef to troops stationed in New York and New Jersey. The barrels supplied to the army were stamped "E.A.–U.S.," indicating Elbert Anderson, supplier to the United States government. Visitors to the docks asked what the marking on the barrels meant. Slaughterhouse workers mistaking the U.S. stamp for the initials of their employer responded, "Uncle Sam Wilson. It is he who is feeding the army." The misinterpretation spread and before long any rations headed for U.S. government use were known as "Uncle Sam's."
By March of 1813, "Uncle Sam" appeared in print as a nickname for the United States government in broadsides published in New York. The first sketches of Uncle Sam appeared in newspapers as early as the 1830s but the images varied from artist to artist. During the Civil War Uncle Sam's appearance began to resemble that of Abraham Lincoln (tall, lean, beard). But it was Thomas Nast's iconic rendering of Uncle Sam in the 1870s with a white beard, top hat, blue coat and striped pants had evolved into one that we would recognize today. Before long, his image became pervasive in newspapers, magazines and advertisements. By 1876, Uncle Sam was widely used as a symbol for the U.S. government in Nast's political cartoons. The image to the right appeared in Harper's Weekly, November 24, 1877.
Artist James Montgomery Flagg's version of Uncle Sam may be the most commonly known. Flagg's Uncle Sam adds stars to his top hat and a red bow tie and points straight ahead at the viewer. During World War I, this version of Uncle Sam with the words "I Want You For The U.S. Army" was used as a recruiting poster. The image, which became immensely popular, was first used on the cover of Leslie's Weekly in July 1916 with the title "What Are You Doing for Preparedness?" The poster was widely distributed and has subsequently been re-used numerous times with different captions.
But whatever became of Samuel Wilson? He and his brother opened a second meat-packing house in Catskill, New York and their operations grew to include over 200 employees. Samuel became a philanthropist and gave generously of his time and money to many civic organizations in the Troy, New York, area. Wilson died at age 88 in 1854. In September 1961, the U.S. Congress recognized Samuel Wilson as "the progenitor of America's national symbol of Uncle Sam."

I didn't know about Samuel Wilson. How interesting! Shows you how effective word of mouth can be–quite the snowball effect.

In 1979, three teenagers — vocalist-guitarist Brian Setzer, drummer Slim Jim Phantom and bassist Lee Rocker — got together in the garage of Rocker's Long Island family home and started making some noise.
There was never a plan or a goal, they were just looking for something to do in between sifting through records by Carl Perkins, Gene Vincent, Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, Dead Boys and Sex Pistols and raiding local thrift shops for funky vintage jackets and shoes. The trio began playing bars in Long Island on Thursday nights and the crowds began to swell, doubling week after week. A month or so in, there was a line of people waiting around the block to check out a young band that called themselves Stray Cats and played a mix of music that was fast and loud with elements of Americana, country/western, straightforward rock 'n' roll and British punk rock.
Back then, they didn't know it, but they were creating a special and unique sound. Stray Cats went on to find fame in London in the '80s where their style of rockabilly music was already catching on and without knowing it, they were becoming a hit back home in the states with songs such as "Stray Cat Strut," "Rock This Town" and "Runaway Boys."

Nearly four decades later, Setzer, Rocker and Slim Jim Phantom stood together in front of about 20,000 fans during the Viva Las Vegas Rockabilly Weekend back in April, reunited and playing for the first time together as Stray Cats in a decade. This reunion is a short one, however, culminating with two shows on Thursday, Aug. 16 and Friday, Aug. 17 at Pacific Amphitheatre in Costa Mesa, the same venue where the band played one of its final "Farewell Tour" shows back in 2008. The trio agree that though there are only three shows on the books for 2018, they've received an enthusiastic and warm welcome back.
"We did what we've always done, which has been an alternative to the mainstream and what gets pushed on everyone musically in such a heavy-handed way," Rocker said during a recent phone interview. "This is just real rock 'n' roll and it's about having a good time. It's passion, sweat and energy and at this point, 40 years later, it's still the three of us. It's the original band, the original guys. Audiences get that and it's really an amazing thing."

Though it's certainly something that their fans wanted and pushed for, the three said that they weren't pressured or hurried out of their decade-long hiatus from playing Stray Cats music together.
"Honestly, it probably started with me calling Jim because I was watching a ball game and we were laughing at some silly play they blew," Setzer said during a separate phone interview. "It always starts out like a couple of kids talking and by coincidence it turned into seeing if there was any interest in us playing. It really does come down to that, where the conversation goes 'Do you wanna play? Do you wanna do some shows? Let's play and see how it feels.' So far, we've only done one, but it felt pretty darn good."
There's a natural and noticeable chemistry among the trio and they insist that all the clichés are absolutely true. It is like a marriage, they are like brothers and yes, at times, they even finish each other's sentences.
"We have this close kind of past, I mean, we go back to when we were 10 years old and we are literally, physically larger than we were when we first met," Slim Jim Phantom said with a laugh. "I was 3 feet tall when I first met these guys. We've really been welcomed back and if nothing else, I love the other two and I love their company and that minute or two before we go on and someone will remember something from back in school and we'll have a bit of a laugh before we play. No one else would even be remotely interested in what we've said, but that's the connection. I love the other two, I really do, musically and personally. You can't invent that history and those experiences you've had together because of the fate of life. I think all of this time later, that we've got most of our marbles, our hair and wits about us, I like doing this, so I'm in."
THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA SWEET SPOT
In the early '80s Stray Cats came back over from across the pond and landed in Los Angeles, not knowing that they had already several sold out afternoon and evening shows at the Roxy Theatre on the Sunset Strip. KROQ 106.7/FM had been playing "Rock This Town" as an import single even though band was from New York, since its album was initially only available in the U.K.

"We had no idea what was going on and that wouldn't happen now in the age of information, but we came to L.A. to the Roxy and wound up doing three, four then five days, two shows a day," Slim Jim Phantom said, noting that he officially moved to L.A. and has lived here since 1982. "Now, if your band is big in a major territory you somehow find out about it, but we came here and we were living at the Sunset Marquis and it just kept getting bigger. I didn't care if people thought we were an English band. I was living at the Sunset Marquis and hanging out at the Rainbow and everywhere there, really."
Rocker has also resided in Southern California, living in Laguna Beach, for almost three decades. He now splits his time between Orange County and his residence back in New York where he grew up. Southern California is like a second home to Setzer, who has lived in Minneapolis for years now. And aside from London, Southern California was really only one of the two places that have fully embraced the Stray Cats' lifestyle, which includes live music, classic cars and motorcycles, pin-up women and retro/vintage fashion.
"Orange County and Southern California is special and has always been ahead of the curve with music and style and they've always liked rockabilly there since day one," Setzer added. "Southern California gets the style, the music, the whole thing. The whole package has always been very attractive there."

long periods of inactivity throughout their career as the members have embarked on several solo endeavors. Most notably, Setzer has been with the Brian Setzer Orchestra, which just celebrated its 25th anniversary last year. The band has been out on extended global jaunts with its Rockabilly Riot! and this year, BSO celebrates the 15th anniversary of its annual Christmas Rocks! run of holiday-themed shows, which returns to Southern California on Dec. 21 at Fantasy Springs Resort & Casino in Indio and Dec. 22 at Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles.

"I am a lucky dude," Setzer said after jokingly referring to himself as Santa Setzer. "I've kind of always done what I've wanted and people say 'OK, we'll take that Brian, we'll give it a shot'."
Meanwhile Rocker is about to release a new live album titled "The Low Road," which is expected to drop in October and was recorded at Daryl Hall's Daryl's House Club in New York. The record will consist of a couple dozen songs cherry picked to include everything from the hits and covers to some brand new material.
"Every song is something meaningful to me," Rocker added. "I'll put it on vinyl as well, which is the first time in I don't know how long that I'm doing that, but I'm dying to get that 12-inch, 180 gram piece of vinyl in my hand. I think it was a magical night and show and I'm happy we captured it."
Slim Jim Phantom has played in numerous bands including the Slim Jim's Phantom Trio and The Head Cat with the late Motörhead bassist and frontman, Lemmy Kilmister. He's currently working with his band the Jack Tars, which also features Captain Sensible from the Damned, Chris Cheney of The Living End and Mike Peters of The Alarm as well as a rotating cast of players that has included Guns N' Roses bassist Duff McKagan, Foo Fighters guitarist Chris Shiflett and actor and musician Fred Armisen. He's also playing local gigs and heading to Europe to play some shows and rockabilly festivals with his girlfriend Jennie Vee, who plays bass with Eagles of Death Metal.
While there are no concrete plans at the moment for any more shows or a 40th anniversary celebration, the guys said they'd keep in touch. For now, with this particular run of shows, Rocker said it has been a good time to take stock and look back at the last four decades, which has included performing alongside artists such as The Clash and Rolling Stones.
"It's been a bit retrospective for me, more so than usual," he said. "I'm always moving forward and thinking about what's coming next, but this year has been a chance to look back and enjoy that kind of history. Stray Cats and myself individually, I look back and I go, 'Wow.' I've gotten to do just about everything that I had hoped to do as a kid and I made music with my heroes from the Stones and George Harrison and Ringo, to working with Willie Nelson and I did a stint on Broadway with the 'Million Dollar Quartet.' It has been an amazing journey.
"I have to say that after these 10 years, the first show in Las Vegas that we did in April, it was pretty emotional especially for me when we were initially standing there together and then walking out on stage. We really do have something quite profound."

Sex worker activism in the United Kingdom is once again gathering momentum and energy. From Twitter, to the streets of Soho and regular organising meetings, in student unions and universities, sex worker activists can be heard and our voices are strong. The recent decision by Amnesty International to include sex workers' perspectives in their policy development has reflected a wider shift that sees the value and necessity of incorporating sex workers' organisations in decision making about the sex industry. But we know that the demand for decriminalisation is just the beginning, not the end of the struggle to transform our industry. We also know that the growing strength of the sex worker movement is producing a number of conflicts and disparate perspectives on how to achieve radical change and transformation. Within our industry there are different experiences of migration, gender and race that impact our safety and ability to earn a living. We often face the paradox of wanting to critique our workplaces, bosses and work but end up having to defend ourselves from radical feminist representations of our experiences and the claim that we are victims in need of rescue. The energy and time it takes fighting to be heard means we often don't have the space to focus on the very institution we want to bring down: that of capitalist work itself.
When Work is Sex: Bodies, Choice and Capitalism is an opportunity for sex workers, activists and academics who are interested in the politics of work and sex to come together to take stock of the sex worker movement and to consolidate and to strengthen the multiple campaigns, plans and struggles that are already in motion. It will also be a space to debate and discuss some of the different politics and perspectives that have developed in the sex worker movement. We are interesting in asking questions and debating what the goals and orientation of the sex worker rights movement should be. What should a union for sex workers look like? How useful (or limited) is the language of rights? What demands are being made and which should be being made? How can we 'scale up' our activities? How can we develop a more robust anti-capitalist orientation? The conference is open to those who are interested in where the sex worker led movement has come from, where it is going and how we can develop a more radical politics of sex work.
The conference is organised into three streams Bodies, Choice and Business. We would like to invite participation in the form of papers, panels and workshops framed around the following themes:
Bodies – How can we address questions and experiences of violence, safety and sexual violence? What does the politics of safe(r) spaces and victimhood mean within the sex worker movement? What are the connections between the criminalisation of (some) bodies and (some) violence? How can we develop a radical concept of autonomy and how could a feminist politics intersect with these concepts?
Choice – How do the discourses of choice, work and identity structure the politics of sex work. How can we approach the politics of consent and notions of freedom? How useful is the claim that sex work is 'my choice'. What is the role of the entrepreneur in late capitalism and in the sex industry? How can we move beyond the claim for rights and towards a more radical anti-capitalist position?
Business – What are we selling? What are they buying? What does a politics of reproduction bring to the discussion of sex work? How does sex work organise gender and reproductive labour? How has migration changed the conditions of the sex industry? How can we understand our relations of exploitation and complicated class positions in the sex industry?
Submissions for conference papers, panels and workshops are due November 1st. Please send submissions to [email protected] with your name (or working name if you prefer), title, short (30 | 1.011251 | 0.264948 | 1.546214 | 0.979801 | [

On December 17 – the International Day to End Violence against Sex Workers we renew our commitment to solidarity. The majority of violence against sex workers is not just violence against sex works — it's also violence against transwomen, against women of color, against drug users and against migrants. We cannot end the marginalization and victimization of sex workers without also fighting transphobia, racism, stigma and the criminalization of drug use.

Next up? GUTS talks about sex in issue 3
Conceptions of bodies, sexuality, and desire have been rallying points for feminist activism, research, and advocacy in different historical moments. Looking back to the 1970s, advocates of the Canadian women's movement made courageous and influential efforts to secure safe access to abortion clinics, to establish supportive women's shelters and rape crisis centres, and to better understand women's reproductive and sexual health. The effects of this movement on Canadian society are undeniable. Take, for example, the Abortion Caravan (1969-70), a national feminist protest that mobilized over 500 activists from all over the country to demand that the government amend its abortion policy. Although abortion was not removed from Canada's criminal code until 1988, the Caravan brought women's reproductive rights to the forefront of the country's consciousness. Coinciding with the Western world's sexual liberation movement, second wave feminism in Canada made space for conversations about women's sexuality beyond the bedroom.
Despite clear advances made by early forms of feminist organizing and advocacy in Canada, female and queer bodies remain contested terrain in government social policy:provincially funded abortions are increasingly inaccessible, sex workers face anti-prostitution legislation, and women's shelters, rape crisis centres, and women's rights advocacy groups are invariably strapped for cash. All-too-frequent instances of sexual objectification of and violence against women today indicate that sex remains relevant to feminist analysis. And yet, despite the importance of sex to feminism in popular sex-positive discourses, women's struggles are too often configured as isolated matters, rather than symptoms of a larger patriarchal structure.
For this issue, we set out to demystify sexuality while attending to the ways sexual liberation has evolved into a new brand of feminism that promotes sex as a means of achieving selfhood and financial independence. Pop-feminist discussions of sexuality are too often reduced to a crude consumerist notion of individuality, measured by one's purchasing power and an ability to sleep with whomever one wants. Although sex positivism once provided a clear avenue toward instituting social and political change, its contemporary manifestation in today's fabulous, independent, sexually liberated feminist icons only serves to conceal gendered and racialized forms of oppression that continue to inform our daily realities.
Our sex issue invites contributors to recover the politics of bodies, sexuality, and desire.

Feminisms and Marxisms: Connecting Struggles, Rethinking Limits
Call for Papers within the framework of the 10th Historical Materialism Conference, Making the World Working Class.
7-10 November 2013, London, SOAS.
Abstracts for papers and panels should uploaded to:
http://www.historicalmaterialism.org/conferences/annual10/submit
(Visit http://feminismsandmarxisms.wordpress.com/)
Our present poses enormous political and analytical challenges to those committed to the struggle against the oppression and exploitation of women. It demands the creation of spaces for the development of an oppositional culture able to confront new forms of domination, rethink its own assumptions and foster serious political responses. One year ago Historical Materialism launched a call for papers on Feminisms and Marxisms with the aim to provide a space for a dialogue between Feminist and Marxist critiques of capitalism in their various articulations. The response to the call went beyond our most optimistic expectations, demonstrating the vitality and wealth of new research inspired by Marxist-Feminist approaches.
This call aims to build on last year's discussions, giving voice to a new generation of anti-capitalist feminists and continuing a collective reflection about how Feminisms and Marxisms can together contribute to criticising and transforming the present. At this year's conference, we aim to think beyond the issue of the compatibilities or tensions between Feminism and Marxism as separate traditions, and explore the way in which they provide the tools to intervene in contemporary debates about labour, oppression and power. We also hope to foster new approaches to old debates, from social reproduction to patriarchy, and advance the understanding of the historic limits and contemporary potentials of Marxist-Feminist theorisations of capitalism.
We welcome papers that address (but are not confined to) the following themes:
Marxist-Feminism in the 21st century
Social Reproduction Feminism and Intersectionality Theory
The Political Economy of Sex Work and Sex Workers' Struggles
Class/Gender Intersections: Masculinities, LGBTQ, Queer Studies and Trans Politics.
Homophobia and Heteronormativity
Gendered Labour Exploitation
Feminist and Marxist critiques of Racism and Islamophobia
Marxist Feminism and Materialist Feminism
Securitization and Carceral Detention
Theories of Sexuality, Bodies, Embodiment
Feminisms, Marxisms and Art Theory
Gender, International Migration and the Political Economy of Care
Feminist-Marxist Critique of Sexual Violence

FREE SCREENING OF "DEBTOCRACY"
7:30pm until 10:00pm
Centre of Gravity Circus Training Studios
1300 Gerrard Street East, Toronto
Event organized by: https://www.facebook.com/groups/Cinema.Politica.Danforth
"Debtocracy" (Greek: hreokratía) seeks the causes of the debt crisis and proposes solutions sidelined by the government and the dominant media.
Aris Chatzistefanou and Katerina Kitidi discuss with economists, journalists and intellectuals from all over the world, who describe the steps that led Greece to the current debt trap – to debtocracy. The documentary follows the course of countries like Ecuador, which created Audit Commissions, and tracks the similar process in Greece.
Debtocracy features the academics David Harvey, Samir Amin, Costas Lapavitsas and Gerard Dumenil; the philosopher Alain Badiou; the head of Ecuador's Audit Commission Hugo Arias; the president of CADTM Eric Toussaint; journalists like Canadian Avi Lewis (co-creator of the documentary "The Take") and Jean Quatremer; as well as public figures like Manolis Glezos and Sahra Wagenknecht (from the German party Die Linke).
To be followed by a panel discussion!
BOOK LAUNCH OF "MONSTERS OF THE MARKET: ZOMBIES, VAMPIRES AND GLOBAL CAPITALISM"
The Gladstone Hotel (in the Ballroom)
1214 Queen Street West, Toronto
A night to celebrate the launch (in paperback) of David McNally's "Monsters of the Market: Zombies, Vampires and Global Capitalism" and the book's receipt of the 2012 Deutscher Prize. With MCs Faria Kamal and Alan Sears, remarks from Himani Bannerji and talk and short reading by David.
Drawing on folklore, literature and popular culture, this book links tales of monstrosity from England to recent vampire- and zombie-fables from sub-Saharan Africa, and it connects these to Marx's persistent use of monster-metaphors in his descriptions of capitalism. Reading across these tales of the grotesque, McNally offers a novel account of the cultural economy of the global market-system.

OF WRITINGS 1952-2011)"
Monday Nov. 26
George Ignatieff Theatre
Trinity College, 15 Devonshire Place, Toronto
In 1972, Selma James set out a new political perspective. Her starting point was the millions of unwaged women who, working in the home and on the land, were not seen as "workers" and their struggles viewed as outside of the class struggle.
For James, the class struggle presents itself as the conflict between the reproduction and survival of the human race, and the domination of the market with its exploitation, wars, and ecological devastation. She sums up her strategy for change as "Invest in Caring not Killing."
This selection, spanning almost six decades, traces the development of this perspective in the course of building an international campaigning network.

CHORUS OF WARNINGS GROW: 'SAY NO TO US AUSTERITY'
by Common Dreams staff
As President Obama and Washington lawmakers embarked on fiscal negotiations to address federal budget concerns and the impacts of a stubborn economic recovery, nearly 350 prominent economists, under the banner "Jobs, Not Austerity," issued a statement warning that the "obsessive concern with cutting deficits that has infected both parties" is a serious threat to making sound economic policy decisions in Washington.

HOW CHICAGO TEACHERS GOT ORGANIZED TO STRIKE
by Labor Notes
The seven-day Chicago Teachers Union strike in September beat back a mayor bent on imposing very bad "education reforms." But how? The win was possible because of years of patient organizing, focused on getting members to step up.

INTERNS, UNITE! (YOU HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE – LITERALLY)
by Greig de Peuter, Nicole Cohen, Enda Brophy, Briarpatch Magazine If decent, full-time work is getting harder to come by, the same can't be said for internships, whether unpaid or barely paid.
Unpaid interns frequently perform work that used to be done by entry-level paid staff, and are also denied access to labour protections and benefits extended to traditional workers. More importantly, few people can afford to work for free. If doing an unpaid internship persists as an obligatory rung on today's shaky career ladder, the professions drawing on this system will be transformed to favour those from wealthier backgrounds. Beyond parents (not all of whom can remortgage to support their 22-year-old's cashless gig in an expensive city), subsidies come from personal loans or part-time jobs. "Paying your dues" is a lazy cliché rather than an ethical argument for why it's acceptable for young people to donate their labour. From street protests to online campaigns, the emerging intern activism is one part of the wider effort by fresh actors to reformat labour politics for precarious times.

Call for Papers: In the framework of the 9th Historical Materialism Conference, 'Weighs like A Nightmare', SOAS, Central London, 8-11 November 2012
A new generation of anti-capitalist feminists has emerged in the last years across the world. Although not without tensions and disagreements, these new feminist currents have been in constant dialogue with different traditions of Marxism and the Marxist critique of political economy in areas ranging from social science, philosophy to art history. With the aim of providing a space for this dialogue, the 9th Historical Materialism conference inLondonwelcomes present | -0.118046 | -0.240233 | 0.403637 | -0.175207 | [

Petrocultures: Oil, Energy, Culture
University of Alberta: September 6, 7th and 8th, 2012
The "Petrocultures: Oil, Energy, Culture" conference will take place on September 6, 7th and 8th, 2012, at the University of Alberta (Edmonton, Canada). Keynote speakers include Allan Stoekl (Penn State University), Warren Cariou (University of Manitoba) and Ursula Biemann (video artist, Switzerland).
Petrocultures will bring together scholars, writers, filmmakers and artists from around the world who are engaged in an exploration of the social and cultural dimensions and impacts of oil and energy. The conference will examine and (re)assess how energy has been and remains an intrinsic part of socio-political life and cultural productivity, with a focus on two areas of research:
1) How does our understanding of socio-cultural objects, events and phenomena change if we frame an analysis of them explicitly in relation to oil (and energy more generally)? What insights would we gain across the disciplines from such a theoretical/methodological maneuver? For instance, what might happen if we frame cultural and intellectual periods (as we do in the study of literature) not in terms of movements (e.g., modernism), nations (British modernism), or centuries (18th, 19th, 20th…), but in relation to dominant forms of energy at any given moment?
2) How do energy resources that fuel the exploitation of the environment impact not only everyday life but also the form and content of its representation? What is the potential of these cultural representations produced through multiple technologies of publication and artistic/communicative production (e.g., art, film, literature), to rupture and/or change the ways in which we live with and relate to oil?
We invite papers, panels and workshop proposals that take up the above questions as well as contributions that address any of the wide range of topics related to petrocultures:
● labour in petrocultures (influx of temporary foreign workers, transient labour forces, the rights or lack thereof of labour, etc.)
● the composition of communities in historical and contemporary oil economies
● education in energy societies
● health (sex, drugs, addiction)
● the intersection of cultural and environmental issues (resource management, water and oil, etc.)
● Aboriginal cultures and societies (land and mineral rights, community safety, race in petrocultures, etc.)
● gender issues and women's rights in male dominated labour markets

● and the impacts of all of these issues on forms of cultural production (art, literature, film, etc.) that attempt to represent and address the socio-cultural realities of living alongside oil technologies.
Papers will be accepted based on the merit of the proposed study, originality of approach, and fit with the aims and theme of the conference. Graduate students are especially encouraged to apply. Please indicate when you submit your abstract whether you are interested in also participating (at your own cost) in a three day excursion on (September 9th- 11th) to Northern Alberta to tour the oil/tar sands. A selection of papers and presentations from the 2012 conference will be published in an edited collection on Petrocultures by McGill-Queen's University Press.
Deadline for submission: October 15, 2011. Decisions will be announced by December 1st, 2011.
Please send all proposals to: [email protected] (c/o Imre Szeman and Sheena Wilson)
Types of submissions:
· 15-20 minute individual presentation: conference paper.
· 45-60 minute panel/roundtable (3-4 presenters).
· 90-minute workshop (hands-on learning, interactive): Interactive sessions that encourage participant involvement.
These workshops can be focused on generating discussion and recording ideas on specific subjects and themes. These workshops can also encourage creative responses to oil and energy (e.g., through a writing workshop, a visual arts workshop etc.)
Propose an individual paper: Please send a 250 word abstract and a 100 word biography, as well as your contact information
Propose a panel: Please send a 250 word abstract for the panel, with a descriptive title for each presentation, and a 50 word bio and contact information for all members of the panel. When submitting the proposal, please copy it to all panel-participants to facilitate future correspondences.
Propose a workshop: The Petrocultures conference will be the ideal venue for exploring theoretical and practical approaches to oil and energy in culture. If you would like to lead a workshop session either independently or with other presenters, please submit a 250 word abstract for the workshop, with a 100 word bio for all workshop leaders.
Petrocultures is supported through funding from the Kule Institute for Advanced Study (UniversityofAlberta), Campus Saint Jean (UniversityofAlberta) and the Canada Research Chair in Cultural Studies.

Garrett Hardin's now infamous essay "Tragedy of the Commons" (1968) stands as a Hobbesian analogy for what he claims are the inherent destructive capacities of human beings that perpetually stand in the way of realizing a free community of individuals with shared resources. Hardin's essay suggests that, when faced with the responsibility of sharing the commons, individual human self-interest – or fear of it – will win out over practices of collectivity, sharing, and mutual aid.
More recently, there has been a resurgence in political theory and political philosophy in addressing the concept of "the commons". Some of the most popularly cited references to the idea can be found in the work of Slavoj Žižek (2009) and Hardt and Negri (2009). This work has further been expounded upon in international conferences devoted to the "Idea of Communism" in London (2009) and Berlin (2010). Steeped in the philosophy of Spinoza, Hardt and Negri use a notion of the common that "…does not position humanity separate from nature, as either its exploiter or its custodian, but focuses rather on the practices of interaction, care, and cohabitation in a common world, promoting the beneficial and limit | 0.353122 | -0.329317 | 0.657261 | 0.492044 | [

ing and detrimental forms of the common" (2009). For Žižek, the commons is comprised of culture ("primarily language, our means of communication and education, but also shared infrastructure such as public transport, electricity, post, etc…"), external nature ("from oil to forests and the natural habitat itself"), and internal nature ("the biogenetic inheritance of humanity"), and are all increasingly enclosed by the forces of global capital. It is the process of our exclusion from these commons ("our own substance") that Žižek argues should effectively proletarianize us into fighting for something more than capitalist liberal democracy – a system whose laissez-faire violence is justified through the empty gesture of "universal inclusion" without any material bite. Žižek's answer to this political conundrum is a call for communism.
And yet, the past century has seen vast and varied critical feminist engagements with historically changing concepts of communism and "the commons". Struggles for universal suffrage, critiques of universality, denouncements of the hollowing out of the welfare state as a result of neoliberalisation, and challenges to the concept of the human, are all examples of a rich and diverse feminist tradition of engagement with the concept of "the commons". Given the popular return to the idea of the commons, what more does feminist analysis have to give to this conversation? Does the concept still have potential for future feminist projects? If so, what is this potential and what do these projects look like? How do they resonate – or not – with those of the past? Further, given the broader theme of the workshop series, what role – if any – does the "the state" play in these imaginings?
The Kent Centre for Law, Gender, and Sexuality (KCLGS) and Kent Law School invite you to participate in a workshop exploring the contemporary feminist work of Rosemary Coombe, Radhika Desai, Denise Ferreira da Silva, and Nina Power as it resonates or clashes with these questions.

Helping us through discussions of issues associated with this film will be Dr. Peter Langille, PhD in Peace Studies from the University of Bradford, Advisor to the UN and other governments about issues of international peacekeeping.

CONFERENCE – BUILDING THE WORKING CLASS MOVEMENT
Ryerson Student Centre – Oakham House
63 Gould Street, Toronto
The Labour Committee of the Greater Toronto Workers Assembly (GTWA) is organizing a conference where activists can come together to talk about the attacks on the working-class in every dimension of our lives, reframe the public discussion and launch a united activist network of workers from all sectors, unions and precarious workers, new immigrants and non-unionized workers to mobilize a new kind of working class movement.
The conference is a chance to come together to build the fight-back we've all been waiting for, but which will never happen unless we make it happen. We need a new kind of fighting working-class movement – a movement that builds across workplaces, communities and unions and the non-unionized majority of the working class.
Registrations are now open! Please visit our website for more details and to register: http://www.workersassembly.ca/callout2011.

Script written by Ty Richardson Whether we've crashed through countless crates or explored uncharted territories, the developers at Naughty Dog have given us so many amazing games in such little time. Welcome to WatchMojo.com, and today, we're counting down our picks for the Top 10 Naughty Dog Games. To have your ideas turned into a WatchMojo or MojoPlays video, head over to http://WatchMojo.comsuggest and get to it!
This studio has certainly come a long way in thirty years. Welcome to WatchMojo.com, and today, we're counting down our picks for the Top 10 Naughty Dog Games.
For this list, we're looking at the best work to come out of Naughty Dog since its inception in 1984.
After the massive success of their "Crash Bandicoot" games, many players were left asking, "What now? What is Naughty Dog's next big thing?" The answer: "Jak & Daxter". Regarded today as one of the PlayStation 2's classic titles, the game kept players engaged with its astounding animation, witty dialogue and humor, and absence of loading screens, which is a true accomplishment considering the time it was released. Of course, you can't forget its unique art style, using vibrant colors and detailed textures that really brought the world to life. Naughty Dog really hit it out of the park with this gem, and it wouldn't be the last time we'd see this dynamic duo in action.
As the last "Uncharted" game to grace the PS3, fans of the franchise had high expectations for "Drake's Deception." It ended up blowing them out of the water, to say the least. It set the bar for what adventure games (cinematic, linear, or otherwise) should be; one long, thrill ride of action and mystery. Additionally, the story is shocking, the scenery is awe-inspiring, and it's filled to the brim with truly unforgettable moments and cinematic set-pieces.
It's not often you see a sequel derail from its predecessor's gameplay and succeed, and "Jak II" is one of those few games that manages to do just that. With less focus on platforming and more on action, "Jak II" leaned into some third-person shooter elements, and not everyone was happy about the change at the time. Those who stuck around were treated to a game with a darker tone in its story, improved graphics, really fun and fluid gunplay. Yeah, we understand if the game is just a tad too difficult for some players, but trust us, your persistence will pay off.
To think that Naughty Dog had zero experience in making a kart racer and managed to pull it off on the first try really speaks to their quality. "Crash Team Racing" had everything going for itself to give a certain plumber a run for his money. Each track provided players with boosting opportunities and shortcuts to keep races intense and risky. The game challenges you to improve your drifting skills and experiment with jumping off ramps at the right time to zip ahead. And that semi-open world Adventure mode? Pure bliss.
In comparison to the first "Crash Bandicoot" game, "Cortex Strikes Back" made things much more enjoyable for players. While the individual stages were much easier to get through, the real challenge was reaching that 100% completion rating for the true ending. "Crash 2" also introduced some cool concepts for levels, which added more opportunities for some memorable moments. Yes, "Crash 2" hit all the marks, but whether it's the best in the series remains a debate among fans.
The last chapter in the Nathan Drake saga ends the story with a bang! The visuals are as stunning as the "Uncharted" games have ever been. Combat is more diverse and intense, and the game encourages more exploration than past titles. As for the narrative, every character feels fully fleshed out and the story keeps us engaged with its twists and turns. "Uncharted 4" garnered a number of accolades, with many naming it 2016's Game of the Year, and while the story might be over for Nathan Drake, it is far from over for the franchise.
Okay, can we all agree that Naughty Dog really knows how to wrap up their overarching stories really | 0.849629 | 0.4223 | 0.092948 | -0.759703 | [

Update May 15, 2020 …
There will be no appointments to renounce US citizenship in Canada until after June 30, 2020 at the earliest.
No renunciations …
The COVDI-19 pandemic has meant the cancellation and unavailability of appointments to renounce US citizenship. At least London UK, Australia and Canada have temporarily ceased processing renunciations of citizenship. pic.twitter.com/pxVTplYnyA

Too bad, net worths are falling daily meaning that fewer renunciants would be covered expatriates and subject to the Exit Tax.
It's unclear whether renunciations are being processed in any countries.
No passports …

PatCanadian says
OMG …but I guess we should have expected this. Interesting side effect of the new coronavirus. So glad I renounced years ago. I empathize with those still trying to do so. Stay well everyone.
Ron Henderson says
Most of those renunciants wouldn't have bothered paying exit tax even if they owed it. So no great loss.
maz57 says
Hmmmm. Looks like the US government has finally figured out a way to do an end run around that pesky "right to expatriate" law that's been on their books since 1868. Something like renunciations could easily be handled online if they wanted to. (They could have and should have started doing that years ago for a 100 bucks a pop if they weren't such dicks.)
Without agreeing or disagreeing, I am curious how you would know this? "So no great loss" to whom? Do you mean "So no great loss" to the USG?
Jack says
I can't speak for RH, but I suspect what he means is that many who renounce these days, are not coming into compliance first, just renouncing so they don't have banking issues. So, if not complying, they wouldn't then go and pay the exit tax.
Just in from Montreal …
In order to maintain the health and safety of those who work at and visit our embassy and consulate facilities and in line with the Canadian government's call to increase social distancing, the U.S. Embassy in Ottawa and all U.S. Consulates General in Canada will suspend routine consular services starting March 23, 2020, and until further notice. See below for more details.
American Citizen Services: Routine passport (including consular reports of birth abroad) and notarial services will be suspended starting March 23, 2020. Individuals with appointments on or after March 23 will be asked to reschedule their appointments for a later date.

@Jack – Precisely. I don't "know" anything, in terms of statistics, but anyone without US assets or ties who renounced and paid an exit tax was likely a victim of the compliance industry, and hopefully it didn't happen very often.
Here's my take on the rest of the news:
1. Renunciation has stopped, indefinitely.
2. If you can find anyone working at a European bank who has time to answer the phone, they'd probably tell you that FATCA enforcement is no longer a priority.
3. US tax deadlines have been moved forward, and may move forward again.
4. US tax enforcement against non-residents without US assets didn't need to stop, because it never started.
Not much else to say. We can still come here and chatter away all we want just to pass the time. There will still be people with legitimate and pressing concerns, like Barbara on the other thread, who will need expert help. But regular old CBT and FATCA worries are shrinking in the rear view mirror at a high rate of speed.
pacifica777 says
I'm posting on this thread, as it is our top thread today, a general comment on the topic of COVID-19:
As a moderator, I am asking all of us to refrain from making references to the coronavirus that may be perceived as light-hearted.
A lighthearted comment, or even a wisecrack, is one thing in a private real-life conversation (where it might even be a useful form of stress relief).
BUT this is a public site and a lot of people are suffering big-time.
Thank you and best wishes to all.
" …regular old CBT and FATCA worries are shrinking in the rear view mirror at a high rate of speed".
Yes, a smallish, good side effect of the current global crisis.
Indeed. Clarification/apology made for the hashtag. Black humour is necessary but tricky in a public forum. | -0.720704 | -0.80249 | -1.03568 | -1.122106 | [

What am I? Aren't I just the cutest? I am your host for the Farm Tour taken recently during the National Garden Festival. It was a Motor Coach Tour complete with a great boxed lunch on Friday, July 19th. We toured local farm country in Eden, NY. The tourists went by bus and that is me in front of the big motor coach with my human dad. We also went where there are flowers, of course. The flower farm we visited you will see in this post, but also visited a beautiful garden at the home of a blueberry farmer. Mmmm, blueberries. That will be coming up in a future post. Let's start where I live… I am part of a herd of Alpacas at a local alpaca farm here in Western New York. Meet my family… or at least this is us boys at Eden Valley Alpacas. I happen to live with peacocks… and chickens too. The handsome black rooster has the eye of the white chicken. They did have a "rendezvous" behind the barn door. Those frisky chickens have no manners, we had company! Next we go to a farmer's market selling all fresh, locally grown produce, part of a grower's cooperative, Eden Valley Growers, Inc.. Does the food not look great? They sold plants too… mmmm, blueberries. I loped over to the flower farm to see what was growing at Henry's Gardens. I think it is the largest cut flower farm in our area. You can see they sell potted plants for the garden too. As a ruminant, those flowers are mighty tasty and would not last long at my farm. The owner was a really nice lady and oh so talented… she offered water to the visitors, but did not offer me a single flower bud. Young buds are the best too. I was really impressed with the fields and fields of flowers. They are cut and put into arrangements to sell wholesale to local grocery stores, such as Wegmans. My fur is sold too, but not to a grocery store. That is why I look so naked. Like my 'do? All the cool alpacas sport one. They were kind enough to take us out into the fields of flowers, but we had to take smaller transportation. I snipped off a few buds when they weren't looking. Yummm. Flowers and flowers as far as one could see… and speaking of flowers, I hope you enjoyed this tour. Coming up is a place you all may enjoy if you love flowers. It is home to the 2012 Specialty Annual Trial Gardens, a University Trial Garden. You get to view specialty cultivars grown and evaluated for next year's retail sales. Plants grown are from all over the world and from the four largest horticultural companies. People in the local area come and vote for plants they want to see in the retail market. I go by taste, but just saying… I hear it is a fun, scenic and colorful place along the Buffalo waterfront. A little far for my padded feet to travel. It is much different from a cut flower farm though. Here reliable flowers are grown to last in a vase. The flowers are cut daily and shipped all around Western New York to liven up homes, business and make a joyous occasion for events. One more Motor Coach Tour happens on August 3rd, called Beyond the Flowers. "Join us for a guided tour of seven spots where community has worked with Mother Nature, not against her, marking the new green approach in Buffalo's neighborhoods." I hear there is a tilapia farm and compost operation on this tour. I myself proudly make a lot of fertilizer. I guess those fish do too! Next post, my photographer was chasing around a flying butterfly. I bet that was funny… she was chasing around the chickens here. That is how she was privy to the chicken hanky panky.

He's so cute I want to take him home with me. BTW…women pay big bucks for that hair color!

Q: Sorting and Displaying an Object Array I'm somewhat new to programming, and I'm trying to display a printed array of objects. I keep getting this compile error:
SchoolTextBookSort.java:90: error: cannot find symbol
System.out.println(textBooks[x].bubbleSortAuthor() + " ");
^
symbol: method bubbleSortAuthor()
location: class SchoolTextBook
1 error
Here is the code making the error. Can someone please help me?
if (response.equals("AUTHOR"))
{
for (int x = 0; x < textBooks.length; ++x)
{
System.out.println(textBooks[x].bubbleSortAuthor() + " ");
}
System.out.println();
}
else
System.out.println("Invalid Response.");
}
public static void bubbleSortAuthor(SchoolTextBook[] array)
{
int a, b;
SchoolTextBook temp;
int highSubscript = array.length - 1;
for (a = 0; a < highSubscript; ++a)
for(b = 0; b < highSubscript; ++b)
if (array[b].getAuthorName().compareTo(array[b + 1].getAuthorName()) < 0)
{
temp = array[b];
array[b] = array[b + 1];
array[b + 1] = temp;
}
}
A: You need to call bubbleSortAuthor by passing it the array rather than calling it on the array.
Like this:
bubbleSortAuthor(textBooks);
It is static but takes an array as an argument and is a method belonging to the class you are in so you don't need
YourClassName.bubbleSortAuthor(textBooks);
From within the same class
Also, it returns void and you can't print void. You should loop through the array again to print it once it is sorted.
A: You have a few small errors, explained below.
*
*You are not passing the textbooks array to the method bubbleSortAuthor(SchoolTextBook[]). It seems you are trying to call the method on the SchoolTextBook objects which are in the array.
*You cannot call static methods from a class object. You have to either call it like
bubbleSortAuthor(array); // if calling it from inside the class
or use the class name
SchoolTextBook.bubbleSortAuthor(array); // from anywhere - if declared public
*Your bubble sort algorithm is not correct. The inner for loop should be written as:
for(b = 0; b < highSubscript -a; ++b) { // you were missing the -a
Method .compareTo(String)
public int compareTo(String anotherString)
Compares two strings lexicographically. The comparison is based on the Unicode value of each character in the strings. The character sequence represented by this String object is compared lexicographically to the character sequence represented by the argument string. The result is a negative integer if this String object lexicographically precedes the argument string. The result is a positive integer if this String object lexicographically follows the argument string. The result is zero if the strings are equal; compareTo returns 0 exactly when the equals(Object) method would return true.
By using > below, we are sorting in ascending order. This also means that capital letters come before lower case letters (ASCII). In case you didn't want that behavior you can apply .toLowerCase() to the elements before comparison.
More on the .compareTo() method here
Here is the corrected code:
if (response.equals("AUTHOR")) {
for (int x = 0; x < textBooks.length; ++x) {
// if textBooks is 2D array of SchoolTextBook objects then call it like this
bubbleSortAuthor(textBooks[x]);
}
// if textBooks is 1D array of SchoolTextBook objects then you don't need the
// above for loop. You could just write:
// bubbleSortAuthor(textBooks);
// print results

Religious persecution is the systematic mistreatment of an individual or a group of individuals as a response to their religious beliefs or affiliations or their lack thereof. The tendency of societies or groups within societies to alienate or repress different subcultures is a recurrent theme in human history. Moreover, because a person's religion often determines his or her morality, world view, self-image, attitudes towards others, and overall personal identity to a significant extent, religious differences can be significant cultural, personal, and social factors.
Religious persecution may be triggered by religious bigotry (i.e. when members of a dominant group denigrate religions other than their own) or it may be triggered by the state when it views a particular religious group as a threat to its interests or security. At a societal level, the dehumanisation of a particular religious group may readily lead to violence or other forms of persecution. Indeed, in many countries, religious persecution has resulted in so much violence that it is considered a human rights problem.
Main article: Persecution
Religious persecution is defined as violence or discrimination against religious minorities, actions which are intended to deprive minorities of political rights and force them to assimilate, leave, or live as second-class citizens. In the aspect of a state's policy, it may be defined as violations of freedom of thought, conscience and belief which are spread in accordance with a systematic and active state policy which encourages actions such as harassment, intimidation and the imposition of punishments in order to infringe or threaten the targeted minority's right to life, integrity or liberty. The distinction between religious persecution and religious intolerance lies in the fact that in most cases, the latter is motivated by the sentiment of the population, which may be tolerated or encouraged by the state. The denial of people's civil rights on the basis of their religion is most often described as religious discrimination, rather than religious persecution.

Examples of persecution include the confiscation or destruction of property, incitement of hatred, arrests, imprisonment, beatings, torture, murder, and executions. Religious persecution can be considered the opposite of freedom of religion.
Bateman has differentiated different degrees of persecution. "It must be personally costly… It must be unjust and undeserved… it must be a direct result of one's faith."
The following statistics from Pew Research Center show how common persecution of various religious groups is in the world:

"Religious cleansing" is a term that is sometimes used to refer to the removal of a population from a certain territory based on its religion. Throughout antiquity, population cleansing was largely motivated by economic and political factors, although ethnic factors occasionally played a role. During the Middle Ages, population cleansing took on a largely religious character. The religious motivation lost much of its salience early in the modern era, although | 0.54967 | 1.53428 | 1.566504 | 1.268553 | [

until the 18th century ethnic enmity in Europe remained couched in religious terms. Richard Dawkins has argued that references to ethnic cleansing in the former Yugoslavia and Iraq are euphemisms for what should more accurately be called religious cleansing. According to Adrian Koopman, the widespread use of the term ethnic cleansing in such cases suggests that in many situations there is confusion between ethnicity and religion.
During Nazi rule, Jews were forced to wear yellow stars which identified them as such. Jews are an ethno-religious group and Nazi persecution was based on their race
Other acts of violence, such as war, torture, and ethnic cleansing not aimed at religion in particular, may nevertheless take on the qualities of religious persecution when one or more of the parties involved are characterized by religious homogeneity; an example being when conflicting populations that belong to different ethnic groups often also belong to different religions or denominations. The difference between religious and ethnic identity might sometimes be obscure; cases of genocide in the 20th century cannot be explained in full by citing religious differences. Still, cases such as the Greek genocide, the Armenian Genocide, and the Assyrian Genocide are sometimes seen as religious persecution and blur the lines between ethnic and religious violence.
Since the Early modern period, an increasing number of religious cleansings were entwined with ethnic elements. Since religion is an important or central marker of ethnic identity, some conflicts can best be described as "ethno-religious conflicts".
Nazi antisemitism provides another example of the contentious divide between ethnic and religious persecution, because Nazi propaganda tended to construct its image of Jews as belonging to a race, it de-emphasized Jews as being defined by their religion. In keeping with what they were taught in Nazi propaganda, the perpetrators of the Holocaust made no distinction between secular Jews, atheistic Jews, orthodox Jews and Jews who had converted to Christianity. The Nazis also persecuted the Catholic Church in Germany and Poland.

The persecution of beliefs that are deemed schismatic is one thing; the persecution of beliefs that are deemed heretical or blasphemous is another. Although a public disagreement on secondary matters might be serious enough, it has often only led to religious discrimination. A public renunciation of the core elements of a religious doctrine under the same circumstances would, on the other hand, have put one in far greater danger. While dissenters from the official Church only faced fines and imprisonment in Protestant England, six people were executed for heresy or blasphemy during the reign of Elizabeth I, and two more were executed in 1612 under James I.
Similarly, heretical sects like Cathars, Waldensians and Lollards were brutally suppressed in Western Europe, while, at the same time, Catholic Christians lived side by side with 'schismatic' Orthodox Christians after the East-West Schism in the borderlands of Eastern Europe.
Protestant Bishop John Hooper was burned at the stake by Queen Mary I of England
More than 300 Roman Catholics were put to death for treason by English governments between 1535 and 1681, thus they were executed for secular rather than religious offenses. In 1570, Pope Pius V issued his papal bull Regnans in Excelsis, which absolved Catholics from their obligations to the government. This dramatically worsened the persecution of Catholics in England. English governments continued to fear the fictitious Popish Plot. The 1584 Parliament of England, declared in "An Act against Jesuits, seminary priests, and such other like disobedient persons" that the purpose of Jesuit missionaries who had come to Britain was "to stir up and move sedition, rebellion and open hostility". Consequently, Jesuit priests like Saint John Ogilvie were hanged. This somehow contrasts with the image of the Elizabethan era as the time of William Shakespeare, but compared to the antecedent Marian Persecutions there is an important difference to consider. Mary I of England had been motivated by a religious zeal to purge heresy from her land, and during her short reign from 1 | 1.213963 | 2.021331 | 1.277372 | 1.79403 | [

553 to 1558 about 290 Protestants had been burned at the stake for heresy, whereas Elizabeth I of England "acted out of fear for the security of her realm."
The descriptive use of the term religious persecution is rather difficult. Religious persecution has occurred in different historical, geographical and social contexts since at least antiquity. Until the 18th century, some groups were nearly universally persecuted for their religious views, such as atheists, Jews and Zoroastrians.

Early Christianity also came into conflict with the Roman Empire, and it may have been more threatening to the established polytheistic order than Judaism had been, because of the importance of evangelism in Christianity. Under Nero, the Jewish exemption from the requirement to participate in public cults was lifted and Rome began to actively persecute monotheists. This persecution ended in 313 AD with the Edict of Milan, and Christianity was made the official religion of the empire in 380 AD. By the eighth century Christianity had attained a clear ascendancy across Europe and neighboring regions, and a period of consolidation began which was marked by the pursuit of heretics, heathens, Jews, Muslims, and various other religious groups.
One period of religious persecution which has been extensively studied is early modern England, since the rejection of religious persecution, now common in the Western world, originated there. The English 'Call for Toleration' was a turning point in the Christian debate on persecution and toleration, and early modern England stands out to the historians as a place and time in which literally "hundreds of books and tracts were published either for or against religious toleration."
The most ambitious chronicle of that time is W.K.Jordan's magnum opus The Development of Religious Toleration in England, 1558-1660 (four volumes, published 1932-1940). Jordan wrote as the threat of fascism rose in Europe, and this work is seen as a defense of the fragile values of humanism and tolerance. More recent introductions to this period are Persecution and Toleration in Protestant England, 1558–1689 (2000) by John Coffey and Charitable hatred. Tolerance and intolerance in England, 1500-1700 (2006) by Alexandra Walsham. To understand why religious persecution has occurred, historians like Coffey "pay close attention to what the persecutors said they were doing."
No religion is free from internal dissent, although the degree of dissent that is tolerated within a particular religious organization can strongly vary. This degree of diversity tolerated within a particular church is described as ecclesiastical tolerance, and is one form of religious toleration. However, when people nowadays speak of religious tolerance, they most often mean civil tolerance, which refers to the degree of religious diversity that is tolerated within the state.
In the absence of civil toleration, someone who finds himself in disagreement with his congregation doesn't have the option to leave and chose a different faith – simply because there is only one recognized faith in the country (at least officially). In modern western civil law any citizen may join and leave a religious organization at will; In western societies, this is taken for granted, but actually, this legal separation of Church and State only started to emerge a few centuries ago.
In the Christian debate on persecution and toleration, the notion of civil tolerance allowed Christian theologians to reconcile Jesus' commandment to love one's enemies with other parts of the New Testament that are rather strict regarding dissent within the church. Before that, theologians like Joseph Hall had reasoned from the ecclesiastical intolerance of the early Christian church in the New Testament to the civil intolerance of the Christian state.
Main article: Religious uniformity
By contrast to the notion of civil tolerance, in early modern Europe the subjects were required to attend the state church; This attitude can be described as territoriality or religious uniformity, and its underlying assumption is brought to a point by a statement of the Anglican theologian Richard Hooker: "There is not any man of the Church of England but the same man is also a member of the [English] commonwealth; | 1.320798 | 1.70618 | 2.002737 | 1.445446 | [

nor any man a member of the commonwealth, which is not also of the Church of England."
Before a vigorous debate about religious persecution took place in England (starting in the 1640s), for centuries in Europe, religion had been tied to territory. In England there had been several Acts of Uniformity; in continental Europe the Latin phrase "cuius regio, eius religio" had been coined in the 16th century and applied as a fundament for the Peace of Augsburg (1555). It was pushed to the extreme by absolutist regimes, particularly by the French kings Louis XIV and his successors. It was under their rule that Catholicism became the sole compulsory allowed religion in France and that the huguenots had to massively leave the country. Persecution meant that the state was committed to secure religious uniformity by coercive measures, as eminently obvious in a statement of Roger L'Estrange: "That which you call persecution, I translate Uniformity".
However, in the 17th century writers like Pierre Bayle, John Locke, Richard Overton and Roger William broke the link between territory and faith, which eventually resulted in a shift from territoriality to religious voluntarism. It was Locke who, in his Letter Concerning Toleration, defined the state in purely secular terms: "The commonwealth seems to me to be a society of men constituted only for the procuring, preserving, and advancing their own civil interests. Concerning the church, he went on: "A church, then, I take to be a voluntary society of men, joining themselves together of their own accord." With this treatise, John Locke laid one of the most important intellectual foundations of the separation of church and state, which ultimately led to the secular state.
The Bishop of Vladimir Feodor turned some people into slaves, others were locked in prison, cut their heads, burnt eyes, cut tongues or crucified on walls. Some heretics were executed by burning them alive. According to an inscription of Khan Mengual-Temir, Metropolitan Kiril was granted the right to heavily punish with death for blasphemy against the Orthodox Church or breach of ecclesiastical privileges. He advised all means of destruction to be used against heretics, but without bloodshed, in the name of 'saving souls'. Heretics were drowned. Novgorod Bishop Gennady Gonzov turned to Tsar Ivan III requesting the death of heretics. Gennady admired the Spanish inquisitors, especially his contemporary Torquemada, who for 15 years of inquisition activity burned and punished thousands of people. As in Rome, persecuted fled to depopulated areas. The most terrible punishment was considered an underground pit, where rats lived. Some people had been imprisoned and tied to the wall there, and untied after their death. Old Believers were persecuted and executed, the order was that even those renouncing completely their beliefs and baptized in the state Church to be lynched without mercy. The writer Lomonosov opposed the religious teachings and by his initiative a scientific book against them was published. The book was destroyed, the Russian synod insisted Lomonosov's works to be burned and requested his punishment.
…were cutting heads, hanging, some by the neck, some by the foot, many of them were stabbed with sharp sticks and impaled on hooks. This included the tethering to a ponytail, drowning and freezing people alive in lakes. The winners did not spare even the sick and the elderly, taking them out of the monastery and throwing them mercilessly in icy 'vises'. The words step back, the pen does not move, in eternal darkness the ancient Solovetsky monastery is going. Of the more than 500 people, only a few managed to avoid the terrible court.
Although his book was written before the September 11 attacks, John Coffey explicitly compares the English fear of the Popish Plot to Islamophobia in the contemporary Western world. Among the Muslims imprisoned in the Guantanamo Bay detention camp there also were Mehdi Ghezali and Murat Kurnaz who could not have been found to have any connections with terrorism, but had traveled to Afghanistan and Pakistan because of their religious interests.

ies around the world in collaboration with the Office of International Religious Freedom and other relevant U.S. government and non-governmental institutions. The data is available to the public. The 2018 study details, country by country, the violations of religious freedom taking place in approximately 75% of the 195 countries in the world. Between 2007 and 2017, the PEW organization found that "Christians experienced harassment by governments or social groups in the largest number of countries"–144 countries–but that it is almost equal to the number of countries (142) in which Muslims experience harassment.
There are no religious groups free of harassment somewhere in the contemporary world. Klaus Wetzel, an expert on religious persecution for the German Bundestag, the House of Lords, the US House of Representatives, the European Parliament, and the International Institute for Religious Freedom, explains that "In around a quarter of all countries in the world, the restrictions imposed by governments, or hostilities towards one or more religious groups, are high or very high. Some of the most populous countries in the world belong to this group, such as China, India, Indonesia and Pakistan. Therefore, around three quarters of the world's population live in them."
At the symposium on law and religion in 2014, Michelle Mack said: "Despite what appears to be a near-universal expression of commitment to religious human rights, the frequency-and severity-of religious persecution worldwide is staggering. Although it is impossible to determine with certainty the exact numbers of people persecuted for their faith or religious affiliation, it is unquestioned that "violations of freedom of religion and belief, including acts of severe persecution, occur with fearful frequency." She quotes Irwin Colter, human rights advocate and author as saying "[F]reedom of religion remains the most persistently violated human right in the annals of the species."
Despite the ubiquitous nature of religious persecution, the traditional human rights community typically chooses to emphasize "more tangible encroachments on human dignity," such as violations based on race, gender, and class using national, ethnic, and linguistic groupings instead.
Main article: Discrimination against atheists
Used before the 18th century as an insult, atheism was punishable by death in ancient Greece and ancient Israel, as well as in the Christian and Muslim worlds during the Middle Ages. Today, atheism is punishable by death in 13 countries (Afghanistan, Iran, Malaysia, the Maldives, Mauritania, Nigeria, Pakistan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Sudan, the United Arab Emirates and Yemen), all of them Muslim, while "the overwhelming majority" of the 192 United Nations member countries "at best discriminate against citizens who have no belief in a god and at worst they can jail them for offences which are dubbed blasphemy".
Main article: State atheism
State atheism has been defined by David Kowalewski as the official "promotion of atheism" by a government, typically by the active suppression of religious freedom and practice. It is a misnomer which is used in reference to a government's anti-clericalism, its opposition to religious institutional power and influence, whether it is real or alleged, in all aspects of public and political life, including the involvement of religion in the everyday life of the citizen.
State atheism was first practised for a brief period in Revolutionary France and later it was practiced in Revolutionary Mexico and Communist states. The Soviet Union had a long history of state atheism, in which social success largely required individuals to profess atheism, stay away from churches and even vandalize them; this attitude was especially militant during the middle Stalinist era from 1929–1939. The Soviet Union attempted to suppress religion over wide areas of its influence, including places like central Asia, and the post-World War II Eastern bloc. One state within that bloc, the Socialist People's Republic of Albania under Enver Hoxha, went so far as to officially ban all religious practices.

Persecution of Buddhists was a widespread phenomenon throughout the history of Buddhism lasting to this day, beginning as early as the 3rd century AD by the Zoroastrian Sassanid Empire. Anti-Buddhist sentiments in Imperial China between the 5th and 10th century led to the Four Buddhist Persecutions in China of which the Great Anti-Buddhist Persecution of 845 was probably the most severe. In the 20th century Buddhists were persecuted by Asian communist states and parties, Imperial Japan and by the Kuomintang among others.

The St. Bartholomew's Day massacre of French Protestants in 1572
The persecution of Christians is for the most part, historical. Even from the beginnings of the religion as a movement within Judaism, Early Christians were persecuted for their faith at the hands of both Jews and the Roman Empire, which controlled much of the areas where Christianity was first distributed. This continued from the first century until the early fourth, when the religion was legalised by the Edict of Milan, eventually becoming the State church of the Roman Empire.
Today, Christians are persecuted in Iran for proselytising. Proselytising is illegal in Iran.
In December of 2016, the Center for the Study of Global Christianity (CSGC) at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary in Massachusetts, published a statement that "between 2005 and 2015 there were 900,000 Christian martyrs worldwide — an average of 90,000 per year." By May of 2013, the Vatican had picked up that number and promulgated it. It gained international attention. However, the BBC has reported that others such as Open Doors and the International Society for Human Rights have disputed its accuracy. Open Doors International Director of Research and Strategy, Ron Boyd McMillan, says the number of Christians killed "for faith-related reasons between 1 November 2015 and 31 October 2016 was less than two per cent of CSGC's figure: 1,207." McMillan added: "Every year, since we started the World Watch List in 1991, the number of Christians killed for their faith has been in the 100s or 1000s, never in the 100,000s."
Gina Zurlo, the CSGC's assistant director, explained that the Massachusetts-based centre would count anyone who "died prematurely, acting out their faith", including Christians killed in war. Their data assumed that most Christians would not wish to take part in warfare, so any Christians who died would have been targeted for their faith. Ms Zurlo admitted that of the 90,000 cited, two-thirds had died in tribal conflicts, and nearly half were victims of the civil war in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Klaus Wetzel, an internationally recognized expert on religious persecution, points out a contradiction between the definition used by Gordon-Conwell defining Christian martyrdom in the widest possible sense, and the more sociological and political definition Wetzel uses: 'those who are killed, who would not have been killed, if they had not been Christians.' The International Institute for Religious Freedom (IIRF) and Open Doors use a definition similar to Wetzel's, only counting cases where the perpetrators killed Christians because they were Christians and anti-Christian motives can be verified. Open Doors documents cases based on direct evidence wherever this is available, but it also makes conservative estimates based on indirect evidence. This approach dramatically lowers the numerical count.
Wetzel also explained that numbers are affected by several important factors: three quarters of the world's population live in the one-quarter of the countries where religious restrictions are high or very high. Plus, Christians are the largest of the religious groups, with 2.3 billion members, and so it would be expected that they would also have the largest numbers of persecutions.
The United States submits an annual report on religious freedom and persecution to the Congress. Many human rights and religious freedom organizations make use of the State Department data, but also gather and compare their own | 0.318195 | 1.82078 | 1.10998 | 1.039633 | [

. The Internationale Gesellschaft für Menschenrechte–the International Society for Human Rights–in Frankfurt, Germany is a non-governmental organization with 30,000 members from 38 countries who monitor human rights. In September 2009, then chairman Martin Lessenthin, issued a report estimating that 80% of acts of religious persecution around the world are aimed at Christians. Pew reports that Christians make up 31.2% of the world's population.
A report released by the UK's Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, prepared by the Bishop of Truro in July 2019, has the number of countries where Christians suffer because of their faith rising from 125 in 2015 to 144 a year later. The review says that, in some regions, the level and nature of persecution, is coming close to meeting the International definition of genocide adopted by the United Nations. Between 2007 and 2017, the PEW organization also found that "Christians experienced harassment by governments or social groups in the largest number of countries"–144 countries. After studying governmental restrictions on religion from "laws, policies and actions by state officials" along with social hostilities, PEW has published a caution concerning the interpretation of these numbers: "The Center's recent report … does not attempt to estimate the number of victims in each country… it does not speak to the intensity of harassment…" France, who restricts the wearing of the hijab, is counted as a persecuting country along with Nigeria and Pakistan where, according to the Global Security organization, Christians have been killed for their faith.
The International Institute for Religious Freedom (IIRF) estimated the number of Christians killed for their beliefs in 2014 at 8,000 to 9,000. In the same year, Open Doors only recorded verifiable cases which came to 7,106. In 2015, Open Doors recorded the number of verified deaths from persecution had dropped to 4,028, and for 2016, the number of deaths was one third of that number: 1207. For the 12-month period beginning in 2016 and ending October 2017, Open Doors recorded 3,066 deaths from religious persecution. Open Doors says that, while numbers fluctuate every year, they estimate 11 Christians are currently dying for their faith somewhere in the world every day.
Numbers of martyrs are difficult to identify accurately since religious persecution is often part of a larger conflict. This complicates identifying the act as religious or political. For example, the U.S. Department of State identified 1.4 million Christians in Iraq in 1991 when the Gulf War began. (Christianity in Iran dates from the Apostolic era in what was then Persia.) By 2010, the number of Christians dropped to 700,000 and it is currently estimated there are between 450,000 and 200,000 Christians left in Iraq. During that period, actions against Christians included the burning and bombing of churches, the bombing of Christian owned businesses and homes, kidnapping, murder, demands for protection money, and anti-Christian rhetoric in the media with those responsible saying they wanted to rid the country of its Christians. Should they be counted as victims of war or persecution? There is no means by which it is possible to definitively answer this question as there is no single established standard applying to all religions equally. Generally all political actions are excluded from being counted as religious persecution.
Main articles: Persecution of Falun Gong, 610 Office, and Organ harvesting from Falun Gong practitioners in China
The persecution of the Falun Gong spiritual practice began with campaigns initiated in 1999 by the Chinese Communist Party to eliminate Falun Gong in China. It is characterised by multifaceted propaganda campaign, a program of enforced ideological conversion and re-education, and a variety of extralegal coercive measures such as arbitrary arrests, forced labor, and physical torture, sometimes resulting in death.
There have being reports of Organ harvesting of Falun Gong practitioners in China. Several researchers—most notably Canadian human rights lawyer David Matas, former parliamentarian David Kilgour, and | 0.392158 | 2.61582 | 1.028821 | 1.143688 | [

Main articles: Persecution of Hindus and Anti-Hinduism
Hindus have been one of the targeted and persecuted minorities in Pakistan. Militancy and sectarianism has been rising in Pakistan since the 1990s, and the religious minorities have "borne the brunt of the Islamist's ferocity" suffering "greater persecution than in any earlier decade", states Farahnaz Ispahani – a Public Policy Scholar at the Wilson Center. This has led to attacks and forced conversion of Hindus, and other minorities such as Christians. According to Tetsuya Nakatani – a Japanese scholar of Cultural Anthropology specializing in South Asia refugee history, after the mass exodus of Hindu, Sikh and other non-Muslim refugees during the 1947 partition of British India, there were several waves of Hindu refugees arrival into India from its neighbors. The fearful and persecuted refugee movements were often after various religious riots between 1949 and 1971 that targeted non-Muslims within West Pakistan or East Pakistan (now Bangladesh). The status of these persecuted Hindu refugees in India has remained in a political limbo.
Similar concerns about religious persecution of Hindu and other minorities in Bangladesh have also been expressed. The USCIRF notes hundreds of cases of "killings, attempted killings, death threats, assaults, rapes, kidnappings, and attacks on homes, businesses, and places of worship" on religious minorities in 2017. Since the 1990s, Hindus have been a persecuted minority in Afghanistan, and a subject of "intense hate" with the rise of religious fundamentalism in Afghanistan. Their "targeted persecution" triggered an exodus and forced them to seek asylum. The persecuted Hindus have remained stateless and without citizenship rights in India, since it has historically lacked any refugee law or uniform policy for persecuted refugees, state Ashish Bose and Hafizullah Emadi.
The Bangladesh Liberation War (1971) resulted in one of the largest genocides of the 20th century. While estimates of the number of casualties was 3,000,000, it is reasonably certain that Hindus bore a disproportionate brunt of the Pakistan Army's onslaught against the Bengali population of what was East Pakistan. An article in Time magazine dated 2 August 1971, stated "the Hindus, who account for three-fourths of the refugees and a majority of the dead, have borne the brunt of the Muslim military hatred." Senator Edward Kennedy wrote in a report that was part of United States Senate Committee on Foreign Relations testimony dated 1 November 1971, "Hardest hit have been members of the Hindu community who have been robbed of their lands and shops, systematically slaughtered, and in some places, painted with yellow patches marked "H". All of this has been officially sanctioned, ordered and implemented under martial law from Islamabad". In the same report, Senator Kennedy reported that 80% of the refugees in India were Hindus and according to numerous international relief agencies such as UNESCO and World Health Organization the number of East Pakistani refugees at their peak in India was close to 10 million. Given that the Hindu population in East Pakistan was around 11 million in 1971, this suggests that up to 8 million, or more than 70% of the Hindu population had fled the country.The Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist Sydney Schanberg covered the start of the war and wrote extensively on the suffering of the East Bengalis, including the Hindus both during and after the conflict. In a syndicated column "The Pakistani Slaughter That Nixon Ignored", he wrote about his return to liberated Bangladesh in 1972. "Other reminders were the yellow "H"s the Pakistanis had painted on the homes of Hindus, particular targets of the Muslim army" (by "Muslim army", meaning the Pakistan Army, which had targeted Bengali Muslims as well), (Newsday, 29 April 199 | 0.50995 | 2.451082 | 0.785342 | 1.294567 | [

Hindus constitute approximately 0.5% of the total population of the United States. Hindus in the US enjoy both de jure and de facto legal equality. However, a series of attacks were made on people Indian origin by a street gang called the "Dotbusters" in New Jersey in 1987, the dot signifying the Bindi dot sticker worn on the forehead by Indian women. The lackadaisical attitude of the local police prompted the South Asian community to arrange small groups all across the state to fight back against the street gang. The perpetrators have been put to trial. On 2 January 2012, a Hindu worship center in New York City was firebombed. The Dotbusters were primarily based in New York and New Jersey and committed most of their crimes in Jersey City. A number of perpetrators have been brought to trial for these assaults. Although tougher anti-hate crime laws were passed by the New Jersey legislature in 1990, the attacks continued, with 58 cases of hate crimes against Indians in New Jersey reported in 1991.
In Bangladesh, on 28 February 2013, the International Crimes Tribunal sentenced Delwar Hossain Sayeedi, the Vice President of the Jamaat-e-Islami to death for the war crimes committed during the 1971 Bangladesh Liberation War. Following the sentence, the Hindus were attacked in different parts of the country. Hindu properties were looted, Hindu houses were burnt into ashes and Hindu temples were desecrated and set on fire.

A major component of Jewish history, persecutions have been committed by Seleucids, ancient Greeks, ancient Romans, Christians (Catholics, Orthodox and Protestant), Muslims, Nazis, etc. Some of the most important events which constitute this history include the 1066 Granada massacre, the Rhineland massacres (by Catholics but against papal orders, see also : Sicut Judaeis), the Alhambra Decree after the Reconquista and the establishment of the Spanish Inquisition, the publication of On the Jews and Their Lies by Martin Luther which furthered Protestant anti-Judaism and was later used to strengthen German antisemitism and justify pogroms and the Holocaust.
The Samaritan Temple at Mount Gerizim was destroyed by John Hyrcanus in about 128 BC, partly because it was attracting some northern Jews as a place of worship. In 107 BC, Hyrcanus destroyed Schechem. In the seventeenth century, Muslims from Nablus forced some Samaritans to convert to Islam and forbade access to Mount Gerizim.
Main article: Persecution of Muslims
See also: Persecution of minority Muslim groups
Persecution of Muslims is the religious persecution that is inflicted upon followers of the Islamic faith. In the early days of Islam at Mecca, the new Muslims were often subjected to abuse and persecution by the pagan Meccans (often called Mushrikin: the unbelievers or polytheists).
Muslims have been targeted for persecution ever since the emergence of Islam, sometimes to the point of being martyred for their faith.
In the 20th century, Muslims were persecuted by various governments including those of Myanmar, France, Italy, China, and many more.
Victims of Muslim persecution include Jews, Christians, Zoroastrians, Hindus, Buddhists, Bahá'ís, Serers and Atheists. Several Muslim groups have been persecuted by fellow Muslims including Shia, Ahmadis, Sufi, Alevis and Salafis.

According to Ashish Bose – a Population Research scholar, Sikhs and Hindus were well integrated in Afghanistan till the Soviet invasion when their economic condition worsened.

in Afghanistan. Their "targeted persecution" triggered an exodus and forced them to seek asylum. Many of them started arriving in and after 1992 as refugees in India, with some seeking asylum in the United Kingdom and other western countries. Unlike the arrivals in the West, the persecuted Sikh refugees who arrived in India have remained stateless and lived as refugees because India has historically lacked any refugee law or uniform policy for persecuted refugees, state Ashish Bose and Hafizullah Emadi.
The 1984 anti-Sikhs riots were a series of pogroms directed against Sikhs in India, by anti-Sikh mobs, in response to the assassination of Indira Gandhi by her Sikh bodyguards. There were more than 8,000 deaths, including 3,000 in Delhi. In June 1984, during Operation Blue Star, Indira Gandhi ordered the Indian Army to attack the Golden Temple and eliminate any insurgents, as it had been occupied by Sikh separatists who were stockpiling weapons. Later operations by Indian paramilitary forces were initiated to clear the separatists from the countryside of Punjab state.
The violence in Delhi was triggered by the assassination of Indira Gandhi, India's prime minister, on 31 October 1984, by two of her Sikh bodyguards in response to her actions authorising the military operation. After the assassination following Operation Blue Star, many Indian National Congress workers including Jagdish Tytler, Sajjan Kumar and Kamal Nath were accused of inciting and participating in riots targeting the Sikh population of the capital. The Indian government reported 2,700 deaths in the ensuing chaos. In the aftermath of the riots, the Indian government reported 20,000 had fled the city, however the People's Union for Civil Liberties reported "at least" 1,000 displaced persons. The most affected regions were the Sikh neighbourhoods in Delhi. The Central Bureau of Investigation, the main Indian investigating agency, is of the opinion that the acts of violence were organized with the support from the then Delhi police officials and the central government headed by Indira Gandhi's son, Rajiv Gandhi. Rajiv Gandhi was sworn in as Prime Minister after his mother's death and, when asked about the riots, said "when a big tree falls (Mrs. Gandhi's death), the earth shakes (occurrence of riots)" thus trying to justify communal strife.
There are allegations that the Indian National Congress government at that time destroyed evidence and shielded the guilty. The Asian Age front-page story called the government actions "the Mother of all Cover-ups" There are allegations that the violence was led and often perpetrated by Indian National Congress activists and sympathisers during the riots. The government, then led by the Congress, was widely criticised for doing very little at the time, possibly acting as a conspirator. The conspiracy theory is supported by the fact that voting lists were used to identify Sikh families. Despite their communal conflict and riots record, the Indian National Congress claims to be a secular party.
Main articles: Serer religion and Serer history
The persecution of the Serer people of Senegal, Gambia and Mauritania is multifaceted, and it includes both religious and ethnic elements. Religious and ethnic persecution of the Serer people dates back to the 11th century when King War Jabi usurped the throne of Tekrur (part of present-day Senegal) in 1030, and by 1035, introduced Sharia law and forced his subjects to submit to Islam. With the assistance of his son (Leb), their Almoravid allies and other African ethnic groups who have embraced Islam, the Muslim coalition army launched jihads against the Serer people of Tekrur who refused to abandon Serer religion in favour of Islam. The number of Serer deaths are unknown, but it triggered the exodus of the Serers of Tekrur to the south following their defeat, where they were granted asylum by the lamanes. Persecution of the Serer people continued from the medieval era to the 19th century, resulting in the Battle of Fandane-Thiouthioune.

Fox News Adds Pro-Life MLK Niece Dr. Alveda King
Published by Kate O'Hare at March 12, 2015
After years of featuring her as a commentator on several of its shows, Fox News Channel has signed pro-life advocate Alveda King, niece of civil-rights luminary Dr. Martin Luther King, as a regular contributor, discussing social and cultural issues across FNC's daytime and primetime programming.
King — who has an honorary Doctorate of Laws Degrees from the Benedictine Saint Anselm College, and often goes by "Dr. King" — is the daughter of civil-rights activist Rev. A.D. King and his wife, Naomi Barber King. During the Civil Rights Movement, bombers struck her family home in Birmingham, Alabama, and her father's church office in Louisville, Kentucky; and King herself was jailed during protests for open housing.
According to her biography at Priests for Life (where she is a pastoral associate and director of African-American outreach), "She sees the prolife movement as a continuation of the Civil Rights struggle."
King is a former college instructor and served in the Georgia State House of Representatives, along with authoring several books. Although she's heavily involved with Catholics in the pro-life movement, she's not a Catholic. The 64-year-old mother of six and grandmother is also the founder of Alveda King Ministries, which describes her as a "minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ," but doesn't say she's formally ordained in any particular denomination (it also says her "church home" is the Believers' Bible Christian Church in Atlanta, Georgia).
In the FNC announcement, network chairman and CEO Roger Ailes said, "Alveda has brilliantly carried the legacy of the King family to the next generation and has been a source of inspiration for many Americans. Her passion and mission for social change will be a valuable contribution to our network."
FNC released news of King's hiring on the eve of the 50th anniversary of of the historic March 7, 1965, march by hundreds of civil-rights activists from the Brown Chapel AME Church in Selma, Alabama, to the state capitol in Montgomery, 54 miles away, to bring the cause of social justice and voting rights directly to segregationist Gov. George Wallace (also a two-time Democrat presidential candidate).
The march erupted in a violent confrontation with state troopers on the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, leaving 50 activists beaten and hospitalized. Televised live, the incident galvanized the Civil Rights movement and revealed the realities of the segregated South to the nation at large.
Speaking on Saturday, March 7, to FNC, King took note of President Barack Obama's speech at the Bloody Sunday commemoration, which called attention to the Voting Rights Act, passed in 1965.
As quoted by CNS News, King called to mind the number of abortions since the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision:
What the president did not say, there is a whole group of people — over 55 million — who have been denied the right to vote, because they've been denied the right to live. … What has changed in the last 50 years? Fifty-five million babies have legally lost their lives and denied the right to vote, and yet the largest abortion provider, Planned Parenthood, is getting $2 million of our tax dollars every day. That's one thing that has changed. ….
The doors of opportunities are open. We must vote to ensure that every American — born or unborn — can come through those doors."
Not everyone is happy about King's hiring. Left-wing watchdogs Media Matters released a story entitled, "Meet Alveda King, the Fox News Contributor Who Blames Natural Disasters on Gay Marriage."
Clicking through the link in the story, this is what she said at the Priests for Life site in 2012:
This past weekend, there were storms in and around the DC metro area. Power to two million was lost. No lights, no computers, no phone access for days. Food shortages and general anxiety, arrested plans were all in the mix. All this amidst record high temperatures in many eastern states reaching as high as 104 degrees | 0.844151 | 1.040066 | 0.569761 | 0.201992 | [

By James Merryfield
Hornet's Homecoming Game Victory!
Rene Merryfield
Hornets offensive line gets in position for another run for a touch down. #65 John Merryfield, # 58 Bradley Shmidl, #55 Hunter Jefferies, #50 Wyatt Fornstrom and -# 71 James Merryfield.
The Hornets entered the game huge underdogs. Having lost the last 22 home games between these two teams. It seemed that things were not on the side of the Pine Bluffs Hornets. However this time was going to be different. This time the Hornets had their stinger primed, ready and sharpened to razor sharp perfection. Revenge was in the air and the Hornets were not to be denied.
The Hornets wasted no time in showing Southeast who was king of this field. Scoring 14 points in the first quarter and then another 7 by halftime. They sent a message that they were here to play. The defense was just as overpowering not allowing the Southeast offense to score a point in the first half.
The excitement was high as the Hornets took the field for the start of the second half and they did not disappoint the fans. Scoring another 7 points in the third quarter while not allowing Southeast to even see the end zone.
Finally in the fourth quarter Southeast was able to put points on the board with a 1 yard TD run by #2 Brandt Fullmer. The extra point was no good. That was the only bend in an otherwise solid and dominating performance by the Hornets. When the final gun sounded the Hornets had broken the losing streak by a score of 41 to 6.
Haize Fornstrom #10 was the leading scorer with a solid performance of 4 touchdown runs, completing 10 of 19 passes with 1 TD and a total of 153 yards. He also ran for 69 yards on 11 attempts. .
However this was not a 1 man show. Isaiah Montanes #22 ran for a total of 63 yards on 14 attempts with a 17 yard blast for a touchdown. Brian Steger #19 also contributed with 11 carries for 29 yards and Seth Tangeman #12 had a 20 yard carry. However this was not just a ground game. Andrew Fornstrom #20 caught 7 passes for 104 yards while Ishmael DePaulittle caught 3 passes for 49 yards. This was a solid and dominating performance by the Hornets Offense.
But what would the offense be if the defense was not as over powering. Holding the strong Southeast offense to only 86 total yards and allowing only 6 points, recovering 3 fumbles and intercepting a pass from quarterback Bradley Fullmer #4 sucked all the wind from the offense and solidified the Hornets position as the team to beat this year.
"Offensively we played with a better rhythm and chemistry which allowed us to be pretty balanced and hard to defend. Defensively we played well, holding them under 90 total yards for the game." stated Coach Gray.
Hunter Jeffres #55 lead the defense with 6.6 tackles followed by Colby Lamb #15 with 3.5. Haize Fornstrom #10, Seth Tangeman #12 and John Merryfield #65 each contributed with 3.0 tackles in this dominating performance. "I thought the kids played physical the entire game, and we tackled much better than we have in the past against Southeast. Southeast is very young and will be good in the future. This was the first time we have them at home since 1995." -- Coach Gray
Other stats: Hornets had 345 total yards while holding the Southeast team to 86. The Hornets had 19 first downs to the Southeast's 6.
"This week we have a tough task. Upton-Sundance is a very good team. They have some very fast kids who run hard, so tackling is going to be big. We cannot have missed tackles this week. Defensively they are as solid as we have seen this year, and they have a good pass rush so we will need to get the ball out quickly." Gray said.

BT cables up Scottish Islands as Finland begins digging to Germany
As one undersea broadband project ends, another begins.
By Liam Tung | December 5, 2014 -- 13:10 GMT (05:10 PST) | Topic: Networking
BT yesterday laid the last of 250 miles of undersea cable in preparation for a fibre rollout across the Scottish Islands. At the same time, Finland is preparing to kick off its own €100m undersea cable to Germany to bypass Sweden.
BT's newly-completed undersea cable has been laid across a "record-breaking" 20 seabed crossings, which will support the telco's £146m broadband network currently being rolled out to the Scottish Highlands and Islands. The subsea project counts for £26.9m of the cost and will ultimately improve services that will be available in 150,000 premises in the region.
From earthquake victim to fibre pioneer: How one tiny village is breaking new ground in broadband
When an earthquake hit the region around Pieve di Cento, the village became a symbol of the disaster. Now the area is showing other small towns left off telcos' fibre rollout plans how to make sure superfast broadband reaches them.
The undersea cables and terrestrial network in the Highlands and Islands are one of two components of the £410m Digital Scotland Superfast Broadband project, which aims to deliver fibre broadband access to around 85 percent of premises in Scotland by the end of 2015 and 95 percent by the end of 2017.
BT is contracted to make fibre available to 84 percent of premises in the region by 2016.
The next phase of work will link subsea connections together, and data traffic is expected to begin flowing through them in spring next year with fibre broadband speeds of up to 80Mbps.
Undersea cabling work has been carried out for BT by French firm Orange Marine, while terrestrial network connections were undertaken by A-2-Sea Solutions.
The Highlands and Islands project has run alongside another fibre rollout to 750,000 premises in the rest of Scotland, with funding from the Scottish government, Broadband Delivery UK (BDUK), the Highlands and Islands Enterprise, and BT.
In total, over 500 miles of fibre backbone is being laid for the Highlands and Islands project, which will complement BT's existing fibre network.
Further north, Finland has taken a key step in its plan to bypass Swedish data networks via an undersea cable from Helsinki to the Rostock-Ribnitz area in northern Germany.
The Finnish government earlier this year granted funding for the project, playing up the nation's prospects to become a European datacentre hub that provided a 'safe harbour' for information. Ultimately, Finland hopes to attract more investments of the type Google has made in its Hamina-based datacentre near the southern-most border between Finland and Russia.
The new submarine cable will end Finland's reliance on data links in Sweden to connect with the rest of the world. Currently, transmissions to Finland occur via the Öresund bridge connecting Denmark to southern Sweden.
The Finnish government-owned venture Cinia Group (previously Corenet) has teamed up with Alcatel-Lucent to roll out the submarine cable and described it as "the first direct cable link between the Nordic region and continental Europe".
Finland hoped the 1,100km cable to Germany would be ready by 2015, but according to an announcement by Alcatel Lucent this week, it is expected to be completed in early 2016.
Dubbed Sea Lion, the cable will have capacity of 15Tbps and will connect to Finland's fibre network, which runs along is railroads.
"We are pleased to begin our cooperation with Alcatel-Lucent on this significant project for Finland, contributing to strengthen its position as a leading country in data centre investments, as well as promoting innovation and increased connectivity to a growth path for the Finnish and European economy," Jukka-Pekka Joensuu, executive vice president of the Cinia Group, said.

Walter Swennen Retrospective At The Wiels, Brussels
Forget everything you might have read about Luc Tuymans or Michaël Borremans, the greatest living Belgian painter today is someone you've likely never heard of, Walter Swennen. I say.
Unlike the two painters mentioned above, he's actually fun and looking at his career retrospectively, innovative as well rather than wallowing in the nostalgia of dated figurative painting, beholden to the market, making works only ignorant wealthy people would want hanging over the sofa, whatever they're boring. Because his work is so obviously humorous I guess it's the reason he might not be taken as seriously as his Belgian brethren, which is the fate awaiting any artist using humor in their work. If your work isn't depressing and purporting to deal with heavy subject matter, whether it's contemporary politics or the Holocaust, it's going to be passed over in favor of, oh, I don't know, gray figurative paintings of dead people or something. Or straightforward documentary videos of anything political, or propaganda posters or cardboard placards telling you how you should think, so it spares you the energy of having to do it for yourself. God, the art world is so boring and predictable sometimes.
Anyway, Swennen has two things going against him to be taken seriously as an artist in the pages of glossy international art magazines; one being that he's a painter and the other that his work is hilarious. Because we're contrarians here at FBC!, we've decided that he is in fact one of the two greatest living contemporary Belgian artists, the other being Ria Pacquée. There might be others, but I haven't been here long enough to list more. Oh yes, there is one! I like Hans Op De Beek's work very much.
Until a couple of months ago I had never heard about Swennen myself, and then friends mentioned there was an opening at the Wiels, would I care to come with them? Sure, why the hell not.
In case you don't know, the Wiels is the most interesting non-profit art center in Brussels, a Kunsthalle-style space housed in a former brewery (they still have huge copper vats on the ground floor) built in the best pre-war Brutalist Deco style ever - a Belgian specialty. They do proto-fascist Deco architecture here like you wouldn't believe! One day I'll post pictures of city halls and churches in Brussels and you will understand.
Anyway, the Wiels is the most interesting art place here because as of now THERE ISN'T A NATIONAL MODERN & CONTEMPORARY ART MUSEUM IN BRUSSELS WHATSOEVER, which means local collectors, the famed Belgian collectors of lore, have no real place to donate or sell their collections to, so they either open small foundations/vanity-museums, or they sell their collections to MoMA and here goes the best Belgian and non-Belgian art abroad.
It's a national tragedy if you ask me, but since Belgians pride themselves on bickering between French speakers and Dutch speakers (they also have German-speakers here but so far I haven't noticed any bickering from them) rather than develop a sense of national identity, all their best art shit goes abroad. I'm mentioning it here because I think Swennen's paintings should be snatched by US museums stats, as they're priced relatively low compared to whatever comes out of Brooklyn or LES art galleries these days.
In any other Western countries nowadays, they open modern and contemporary art museums as if there is no tomorrow, and here, they closed the only one they had. Which sucks for artists and audience alike, because there is a big audience here for contemporary culture, if you look at the music festivals, bookstores and art movie theaters. The absence of a contemporary/modern art museum is mind-bloggling, and non-collecting spaces can't fill that gap.
So to the Wiels I went, happy to meet up with my friends and get drunk with Belgian people (another thing they're really great at here), but a bit uneasy at witnessing how overwhelmingly white the Belgian art world is. Belgium has a really big immigrant population, but it hasn't translated yet into the population you | 1.430372 | 0.732078 | -0.382597 | -0.04774 | [

see in attendance at openings and during exhibitions. I'm not even talking about featured artists - generally speaking, Europe is still 99,99% white and 95% male as far as featured artists go. At any Belgian art institution you might frequent, the likelihood you will see non-white people is restricted to talking to the the museum/security guards. This is true of other European countries, not just Belgium, but after living in Los Angeles for ten years, re-acclimating to such a racial and social make-up is a bit shocking.
To go back to the Wiels, it's a tall, narrow building and you have to take up an elevator to go see the show at upstair levels. Not knowing anything about Swennen I had no preconception about whatever I was going to see, and I was enchanted when I went up and discovered such great paintings. My first thought was, "if Kippenberger had been doing only paintings and been Belgian, he would have been Walter Swennen!". Like Kippenberger, Swennen creates paintings that at first glance may look like they've been haphazardly made, but that a careful inspection reveals to be incredibly well thought out. If you look closely you can see underlying layers there to bring some effects to the surface, and a very balanced sense of composition. One note about the exhibition: it's non-chronological, a pet peeve of mine usually when it comes to retrospectives, but in this case it doesn't prevent anyone from enjoying the show. But you won't learn much about whether there are different series or projects within the body of work, and there's generally not much available about specific paintings, as well as a remarkable absence of art historical references that could make you understand how he doesn't come out of a vacuum.
Additionally the educational components at the Wiels are rather low-key, so if you opt not to take a tour and can't afford the catalog, you're totally on your own to discover Swennen. There are labels at the entrance of each rooms detailing the painting titles from left to right but nothing under each painting itself, which is why none of the images I'm posting have any legend. I found that part a bit confusing.
I've mentioned Kippenberger because there is a distinctive element in Swennen's work that recalls a certain type of 1980s and 1990s painting, like this one above that could evoke Albert Oehlen, for example. And like these two painters, you could also trace back Swennen's use of humor and borrowing of comics and cartoons tropes to pioneer painter Sigmar Polke. And like Polke and Kippenberger, the use of what seems at first glance conspicuously goofily-made, carelessly painted images is just a device to get at the essence of painting as a medium. As such, the device also brings us back to Belgian master René Magritte, whose 1948 Période Vache was doing just that, as a way to aggressively punch the stomachs of the calcified Surrealist French intelligentsia that was still the master of the quaint little art universe the next country over, in Paris. Where the doxa of the then art-world was calling for properly made paintings harking back to pre-war domination, Magritte sent some absurd paintings meant to challenge the state quo. They did it so well that up until the early 1990s and an exhibition in Marseille, the Vache paintings weren't very well-known, so challenging they were to the accepted wisdom about the Belgian master and the massive merchandising his paintings unfortunately originated (umbrellas, mugs, cookie tins…)
Swennen takes over where Magritte stopped (he went back to his best-selling bowler hats and oversized apples and cloudy skies after that) but gets a step further by integrating whatever happens in painting in the next few decades (Guston is mentioned in the booklet, for example).
There were a couple of large vitrines and pinboards at the show featuring drawings, notes and xeroxes by the artist which I understand are there to show Swennen's thought process, with various puns in both Dutch and French (and sometimes English) but also series of words and quotations one senses the artist kept as material or source ideas for his paintings.

makes a big deal of what are quintessential Belgian linguistic issues: Swennen was born in a Flemish family but educated in French, which was relatively common in Belgium until recently and generally makes all the tensions between language speakers very complicated (you can be of any ethnic descent and have grown up in the other languages, and for people having parents on both side of the linguistic divide it's never clear-cut). Therefore one is told that the subtext of the show is to look at painting as "translation", which, uh, OK, maybe, but if one comes to Swennen as a total ignoramus like I am, it doesn't really show. Or, er, "translate".
I felt that component of the booklet was what I call a "Belgo-Belgian" preoccupation, something that I'm sure makes sense to people who have lived in Belgium all their lives, but isn't obvious to a newcomer. For example, I don't speak Dutch but thanks to French, English and German I've been able to understand some of the puns or jokes displayed in the artworks. And I understand the puns are starting points as the conspicuous subject matter of some of the pictures but they don't seem at all necessary for their reception by a passive audience. For example, if these paintings were to be exhibited in Spain or in the United States or in China, the puns, jokes and wordplay wouldn't be understood by most anybody there, yet the paintings (and drawings and couple of sculptures) would still be interesting (I hope) for someone outside of Belgian culture. Because as I said, if the puns or language are the conspicuous starting point, the real subject matter for each work is painting itself as a medium. Or so it seems to me (I'm sure Clement Greenberg would have a heart attack reading this, but he's already dead anyway).

Rather I feel that the reference to "translation" was meant as some sort of device rather than an ontological necessity to explain the reluctance of the discourse around painting that tends to seep in most European critical writing. You see, if painting is just some sort of "translation" of a thought or a concept rather than just a plain old medium, it becomes legit for conceptual/political art critic mavens and not some sort of hedonistic commodity destined to hang inside nouveau riche mansions in Florida or Orange County. It's a translation so it's uneasy and awkward (and, uh, I guess it means something is lost along the way, too?). It's a bit sad, this very European unease about painting, but it's another debate entirely. Or else I'll end up writing a 30,000 words post and I'd rather not do that. I am tired. I have been waiting for the plumber since 8 AM for like, the 5th time in a row. Like Santa, I think he doesn't exist.
One of my regrets about the exhibition, and it's an a posteriori regret, is that the booklet mentions that Swennen had a past career as a beat poet and also someone who took part in "happenings" in his youth, and later on was a conceptual artist, to only take up painting in the 1980s. I wish there were works to be seen about his previous career, or just documentation. It's unclear if the absence is due to a curatorial choice (maybe from the artist himself) or if this previous work hasn't survived through the years.
Of course, when one thinks "Belgian person who used to be a poet and then became a visual artist late in life", Broodthaers comes to mind immediately but as this isn't mentioned anywhere in that specific conjunction in the booklet (he's mentioned for a very early work though but the parallel isn't made clear), maybe outside of the use of humor the similarities stop here. Here's a painting above that let us know what we should do with too much "this is only what I know of Belgian art so I'm going to use it over and over".
Because the educational aspect of the show and the installation are so bare-bones, one is left hanging with many questions. What did prompt Swennen to take up painting in the 1980s, did it have anything to do with the "Pictures" generation in NYC, or the resurgence of (truly atrocious) ne | 0.898938 | -0.359869 | -0.392108 | 0.433513 | [

o-expressionist painting in Germany? Because what he does is obviously totally removed from both, and closer to Kippenberger and Polke in intent if not in execution. Or has the decision to take up painting mostly to do with the local art scene at the time? Painting hasn't been so popular over the last decades in Europe outside of that early 1980s period, and so for Swennen to take it up in a country that was then mostly known for post-conceptual art is interesting.
When visiting the show one got a sense that Swennen really enjoys himself when working, sometimes giving tautological titles to paintings or rather, literally descriptive titles: you have a depiction of circles titled "circles", another rather abstract painting was called "red mass" I think, and so forth. There is also a joyous experimentation going on with unconventional supports or materials, with stretcher bars one guesses to be totally DIYed out of whatever was on hand, paintings running around curved pieces of metal, or xeroxes of drawings remade over. You cannot guess from the crappy image I took above, but this painting has a really lovely enamel-like finish.
I've been told people who don't like the work say they feel it isn't so great because "it's made so haphazardly like the guy doesn't give a fuck", but that is only an outward impression because as simple as that painting above is, its composition is perfect. It wouldn't be if there wasn't that small horizontal line on the frame and the other vertical one seemingly dripping out of the red rectangle, but these two details as well as the blue layers peeking from under the gray background reveal an attention to detail and perfect balance.
Elsewhere, Swennen makes fun of conventional ideas of paintings as objects, the ones that lie outside of the so-called art world, inside dentist waiting rooms, petty-bourgeois parlors, amateur societies' yearly exhibitions, second-hand stores, and far-right politicians' minds. A sinking ship mocks the convention of nautical paintings while coming with its mandatory brass lamp over it, with its cord displayed prominently below - the lamp is a signifier of old-fashioned bourgeois decorating values, where it is meant to signal the viewer that whatever is displayed beneath is important stuff indeed.
In many occasions Swennen reuses old pasty curlicued frames and repaints over them, or uses chalkboard-like paint to create the illusion of a blackboard where we'd expect some teaching device but instead are confronted with a seemingly childish drawing of a ghost figure, palette in hand, leaving a medieval castle. I guess it's the childish aspect of many of the works that puts people off whereas yours truly finds it enchanting, but then one ponders if a child would think about depicting a dog (or a wolf?) throwing out something that looks like a bomb while a scribbled inscription on top reads "Hosana" (yes, there's an "n" missing). If you have a child like this, please donate me one of their paintings. Thanks.
Elsewhere, you find colored dots in suspension on a white background, which could read as a parody of Hirst's famed and totally perfect, painted-by-assistants dot paintings, or just something Swennen was trying his hand at. When wandering in the exhibition you find that there isn't a question of whether Swennen paints abstract or figurative paintings because he does both, and there isn't such a sharp definition as far as both genres are concerned. Somewhere in the booklet it says something like "chance plays a major role in Swennen's practice" in the sense that he uses a lot of random ideas and visual data as starting points (explained as stuff that lays in piles in his studio, whether it's books, magazine images, old paintings found at thrift stores, etc.) or as "continuing devices" if I understand whatever is written in that &^%#* Belglish booklet, that is, when he's stuck in the middle of painting something some random image might give him inspiration to go in another direction to finish the work. My understanding of what they wrote and which I find hilarious is that, if he doesn't come across something that will spur his imagination, the work is abandoned/finish as "an abstract painting". If this isn't what they meant in that booklet, blame their English translator, or whoever wrote | 1.416675 | 0.228016 | -0.336787 | 0.168174 | [

Single, Middle Class And Getting By The government says median income household is just under $50,000, and you'd think that single people in that category would be the most comfortable. But as Maryland resident Jada Irwin knows, a national median-income salary goes a lot further in some parts of the country than others.
Living In The Middle
NPR profiles middle-class Americans who are feeling squeezed and fear a slide to the bottom.

Single, Middle Class And Getting By
From NPR News, this is ALL THINGS CONSIDERED. I'm Robert Siegel.
And I'm Mary Louise Kelly.
This week, we're focusing on people living smack-dab in the middle of the middle-class. The government says median household income is $49,777.
But as NPR's Jennifer Ludden reports, that $49,000 goes a lot further in some parts of the country than others.
JENNIFER LUDDEN: Last year, Jada Irwin lived in St. Louis and made a lot less, just $37,000, and yet...
LOUISE KELLY: I could take a trip, go to Atlanta or New York for the weekend, and afford to shop while I was there. Or, you know, if somebody came into town unexpectedly, I could afford to take them out for a nice dinner without wondering, okay, what bill am I going to have to pay late?
LUDDEN: Then, Irwin lost her job in budget cutbacks, and decided to move to Washington, D.C. She knew it would be more expensive, but it offers more work in her field, communications.
LOUISE KELLY: Welcome to my humble home.
LUDDEN: Irwin works for an advocacy group for abused children and now makes $47,500, just under the national medium. An apartment close to her job in D.C. was beyond her budget, but she was happy to find a good deal just over the city line in Silver Spring, Maryland. Her rent is 1,100 a month.
LOUISE KELLY: And my guest room is just fully equipped with this air mattress here.
LUDDEN: The second bedroom lets family visit. But if need be, Irwin figures she could get a roommate to share expenses.
LUDDEN: In her galley kitchen, Irwin cooks up fish, rice and broccoli for dinner. She says she'd love to go out for a decent meal once a week, though can only afford it once a month. But Irwin insists she's not high maintenance - she can bargain shop with the best of them. Yet, does this feel like middle income?
LOUISE KELLY: I think it's crazy. I think that middle income - to me, here - would be 80, $90,000 a year. That's what I think a person would probably have to make in order to live comfortably, especially if you have a family and other people to take care of.
LUDDEN: And in fact, this region's median income is closer to that. Irwin is 33, well into adulthood.
LOUISE KELLY: I definitely feel like I should be more advanced than I am. I have friends that are, you know, head and shoulders above where I'm at, financially and professionally, in their careers.
LUDDEN: But it took her a few years to feel ready for college. After first going to community college, Irwin finally graduated from the University of Missouri in 2003.
She grabs her laptop to show me her student loans. She says her middle-class parents made clear not going to college was not an option. But they'd saved nowhere near enough to pay for it.
LOUISE KELLY: My mother also took out a loan my first year of college, so she helped with a loan on her end.
LUDDEN: And Irwin racked up three student loans of her own. She's been sending regular checks for seven years now, and feels certain she must have made a dent. So she looks a little stunned when she finally logs on to the student loan website.
LOUISE KELLY: Wow. Is that how that works?

Discovery Corps is a youth development program that puts young people on the front line of Pacific Science Center's mission to ignite curiosity in every child and fuels a passion for discovery, experimentation, and critical thinking in all of us. Pacific Science Center is looking for motivated youth to dive into exciting, interactive experiences while learning new skills. For more information about Discovery Corps, contact [email protected] or call (206) 443-2884.
April 13, 20 and 27, 2019 │ 9 a.m. – 5:30 p.m.
Welcome Celebration: Sunday, April 28, 2019 │ 1-3 p.m.
The completed application form and two recommendations must be postmarked or delivered by the application deadline, Thursday, February 28, 2019.
A small pool of candidates will move to the next round of the selection process and will be contacted to schedule a personal interview. If you have questions, contact Discovery Corps at (206) 443-2884 or [email protected].
Discovery Corps offers intensive, hands-on training sessions to help you share science with others! During training, you will develop valuable job skills in customer service, education, and communication with people of all ages. You will present exciting, interactive activities to the public and get a peek behind-the-scenes at Pacific Science Center.
Discovery Corps Club meetings will give you the opportunity to make friends, participate in fun social events, and explore exciting new science discoveries. As a Club member, you'll be invited to attend workshops to develop life and job skills that will support you as you seek out further education and work.
Discovery Corps Members have the chance to apply for an internship through Discovery Corps Internship Program. Internships allow members to work closely with one of the many departments here at the Pacific Science Center. Possible internship opportunities include: developing future presentations, caring for the butterfly house, and presenting shows in the planetarium.
The Track for Earth and Space Science Achievement (TESSA) is a pathway within the Discovery Corps program that targets youth interested in remote sensing, earth science and astronomy. This program offers students the unique opportunity to participate in the Discovery Corps program while completing specialized projects related to NASA's scientific explorations, astronomy, and earth science. Students begin TESSA as 9th graders and continue with the program until they graduate from high school. As students gain experience through TESSA, they will be invited to take on more challenging projects that match their interests in using remote sensing technology and the earth and space sciences, and they will have opportunities to learn and practice the job and life skills offered by the Discovery Corps program. A youth in Discovery Corps TESSA will begin his/her involvement at Pacific Science Center by completing service learning volunteer hours. After the first 100 hours in the program, he/she will be assessed on skills and performance. If expectations have been met, he/she may be promoted (assessment periods and new hiring sessions will vary depending on staffing and the student's schedule). This promotion includes increased responsibilities and more available training to assist with the continued development of skills. Paid youth can continue to work towards further promotions within the structure of the program. Application for this session is currently closed.
Discovery Corps consists of a system of training and assessment leading to increased levels of responsibility, pay and skill. Pacific Science Center looks for motivated youth ages 14 and older who are interested in gaining job and life skills while volunteering and working to provide Pacific Science Center's guests a unique and interactive experience.
Once a youth has completed approximately 100 hours of service learning, including training, as a volunteer, he/she will be assessed on skills and performance. If expectations have been met, he/she may be promoted into a paid position (assessment periods and new hiring sessions will vary depending on staffing and the youth's volunteer schedule). This promotion includes increased responsibilities and more available training to assist with the continued development of skills. Paid youth can continue to work towards further promotions within the structure of the program.
Discovery Corps is designed to support youth from the time they enter the program until they graduate from high school or an academically equivalent program. Youth learn job skills and are exposed to numerous aspects of science, math, and technology which will | 0.515428 | 0.610316 | 2.114332 | -0.23764 | [

Nishant Singh Malkhani injures himself during 'L.A.C. - Live The Battle' shoot
Nishant re-iterated, ''During a fight sequence, I took down one of the soldiers, I ran and hit him in the chest and took him down the mountain with me while doing so his knee hit me in the groin area and for 10 minutes I could not even get up after that.''
Team India Forums
Soon after his stint in the reality show "Bigg Boss" house ended, Nishant Singh Malkhani joined the cast of "L.A.C. - Live The Battle" and was off to Kargil to shoot for his debut digital film. While shooting for an action sequence in the movie, the actor hurt the right side of his lower abdomen and has injured some internal organs. He is already on his way back to Mumbai where he will get some tests done to know what's wrong.
The movie is jointly produced by Nivedita Basu and Chitra Vakil Sharma along with director Nitin Kumar Gupta.
Talking about his injury, the "Guddan - Tumse Na Ho Payega" actor said, "There was an action sequence in which I am fighting the enemy forces, and there are three soldiers who are fighting with me at the same time. During the fight I took down one of the soldiers, I ran and hit him in the chest and took him down the mountain with me, while doing so his knee hit me in the groin area and for 10 minutes I could not even get up after that."
"At that time everyone including the director came to check me. Luckily Nitin is also a doctor and we initially thought it's a minor injury. So I continued shooting and I did all my action sequences, but on Monday it started hurting me again. There was an action sequence so I somehow managed to do it. And because it was hurting me so badly, a doctor was called to the hotel and he checked me up and told me to take extreme precaution because I have hit some internal organ on the right side of my stomach. Once I reach Mumbai, I will be getting some scans done," he added.
The movie is based on the Sino-Indian conflict in the Galwan Valley, and the cast and crew were shooting under extreme weather conditions for the digital film. Sharing his experience of shooting in Kargil, Nishant said, "I can't explain how tough it was because it is -15° to -20°C. We have been shooting throughout the day in the snow, we were trekking every day, we were climbing up and down the mountains every day because we wanted to shoot at all real locations to make the film look very real."
"All this had hurt me physically almost every day, but this injury was really bad. I am not used to this weather. This is the first time we are shooting a movie like this in India and it is like a continuous shot and it requires that kind of hard work because everything has to be real, the fights need to look real, because there are no cuts, no closeups, it's all there on the steady cam. So we managed it somehow," he added.
Recently, while filming for "L.A.C. - Live The Battle", "Aashiqui" fame actor Rahul Roy suffered a cerebrovascular stroke and is under treatment at the Nanavati Hospital, Mumbai. He was airlifted from Kargil and taken to Srinagar and then brought back to Mumbai.
This was Nishant's first interaction with Rahul and he is all praise for him. He said, "When I first met Rahul Roy, I was like he is such a nice guy. I had never met him before, but he is super friendly, and a very good human being. I bonded well with him. On many days post pack up we used to sit either in his room or my room and then just chat about his experience in the industry. He used to share anecdotes of all the things that have happened in his career and I also used to share my experience."
"His stroke happened right in front of me, he lost his speech, he was talking in a very different manner and he was not able to form sentences, and he was looking unwell. Now, he is recovering well in the ICU and as soon as I land in Mumbai, I am going to see him. I pray for his speedy recovery," he concluded.

Aldridge helps Spurs escape pesky Pelicans, 113-108
SAN ANTONIO (AP) — The San Antonio Spurs were hit by a couple of surprise attacks. They overcame both.
LaMarcus Aldridge had 25 points and 14 rebounds and the Spurs withstood another bat intrusion — with a nifty play from the team's coyote mascot — and held off the depleted New Orleans Pelicans 113-108 on Saturday night.
"The hardest teams to play against in this league is the guys that want to be out there and play that don't get the opportunity to play that much," said San Antonio's DeMar DeRozan, who had 13 points, six rebounds and five assists. "Because they're going to bring a whole type of intensity and type of play that you're probably not used to. A lot of things come unexpected and they really have nothing to lose."
The Spurs led for all but the opening basket in successfully sweeping a four-game homestand, but their fifth straight victory didn't come with some drama.
A bat began hovering above the court three minutes into the game, causing officials to delay play. It was the second straight home game delayed by the winged intruders, with three bats buzzing the court Thursday night against Brooklyn. Arena workers were able to shoo the bats into the rafters against the Nets, but the Spurs were better prepared against the Pelicans.
An arena official walked onto the court with a net, but missed the bat on his first attempt. Almost on cue, the Spurs' mascot charged onto the court dressed in a Batman costume with a net. He missed his first diving swipe at the bat, then dove again near the scorer's table and caught the bat in his net to huge cheers from Spurs players and fans. The worker placed the bat into a towel and took him from the court, with play resuming after a delay of only 1 1/2 minutes.
"I threw to hit it with the ball," Aldridge said. "I tried to, but I wasn't the hero tonight."
Rudy Gay and Marco Belinelli added 17 points each for San Antonio.
Anthony Davis was among five injured players out for New Orleans. Davis, who is listed out with a sprained left index finger, has not played since informing the Pelicans he wants to be traded from the franchise that drafted him first overall out of Kentucky in 2012.
"We never give up," Pelicans point guard Jrue Holiday said. "I feel like people think because we're short-handed or whatever may be, that we're going to get blown out but we haven't had many blowouts this year. That's because we're always going to fight until there's zero on the clock, no matter who's playing."
Frank Jackson had a career-high 25 points to lead New Orleans.
The Spurs emptied their bench while holding a 106-84 lead but were forced to put their starters back in after the Pelicans went on a 24-5 run. Jackson's layup pulled New Orleans to 111-108 with 38 seconds remaining.
"I won't say I wasn't nervous doing it," Popovich said of keeping the reserves in. "I just decided to stick with them and let them sink or swim for a while but when it got to three obviously, I had to do something different."
After DeRozan missed a floater, New Orleans' Tim Frazier upfaked and spun around Rudy Gay, but his 3-pointer circled the rim and fell off with 4.4 seconds left. DeRozan closed the game out with a pair of free throws.
DeRozan finished with 13 points, six rebounds and five assists.
Pelicans: Davis missed his seventh straight game. New Orleans is 2-4 in those games. ... The Pelicans also were without Nikola Mirotic, E'Twaun Moore, Elfrid Payton and Julius Randle.
Spurs: Aldridge has 18,013 points, becoming the only player in the league with 18,000 points and 7,500 rebounds since 2006, the year he was drafted. ... Pau Gasol has 20,882 points, moving past | -0.135852 | -0.127871 | -1.017926 | -1.231364 | [

"I didn't bother going to school. I just found my inner pussy."—Sir Ian McKellen explains how he prepared for his role as Gus the Theatre Cat in the film version of the musical Cats.
I have never been a paid spokesperson. Nobody has ever bought my endorsement—but I'm open to offers. Without exception, I tell you what I think and stand by my opinions. As you know, I'm constantly on the road. So when I saw a post-Thanksgiving flight from Boston to Miami for $14.37, I jumped first and asked questions later. I had never heard of Frontier Airlines, but for that price, what did I have to lose—other than my life? Of course, there was a blizzard in Boston on the day of departure. Perhaps an airline with a reputation wouldn't have risked it. But, God love those people at Frontier. We may have been delayed, but the employees were pleasant, the plane was decent and I got to Florida in one piece. When I checked in, I saw the breakdown of my fare. Most of my $14.37 was spent on fees and taxes. What Frontier Airlines actually made on my ticket was $0.02—you can't even buy a gumball for that price anymore! The day after the flight, I got an email from Frontier asking me to fill out a survey about my experience. Actually, what they said was, "We'd like your two cents." Definitely recommended.
After my brief stay in Florida, I had to dash to Los Angeles to co-host Sidebar with John Duran, on Channel Q Radio, which is syndicated around the country. ( You can hear the show on BillyMasters.com . ) The good thing about when I host something is I bring my own guests. I booked Jenifer Lewis, since she was appearing in Debbie Allen's "Hot Chocolate Nutcracker" gala the following night. And what a night it was. Shonda Rhimes donated a building to the Debbie Allen Dance Academy! And I learned Berry Gordy gave Debbie the first $50K to get started. As to the show, there was never such a "Nutcracker." Over 200 gorgeous kids danced, sang and acted their tails off. And speaking of tails, Jenifer Lewis played a rat! We were joined backstage by the young and restless Shemar Moore, who has a pretty hot tail himself. You must check out the photos at BillyMasters.com .
An old photo has surfaced of Pete Buttigieg raising money for the Salvation Army—he's even wearing the apron and ringing the bell! Turns out, the mayor has a long history of working with the group and actually held a mayoral event at the Salvation Army center in 2018. The organization has a long history of anti-gay stances. However, the Salvation Army has said it has "evolved" on some of its views. Instead of people finding fault with Mayor Pete over groups he has volunteered for, why not focus on the fact that he actually volunteers?! I dunno about you, but I sure ain't standing outside in the cold ringing a bell for NOBODY!
And now, time for more of "Billy's Holiday Gift Giving Suggestions." Who doesn't love an ornament? And who doesn't love Broadway? You put those two things together and you get one of my favorite annual gifts—the Broadway Legends collectible ornament. Since 2008, Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS has raised money by featuring an iconic Broadway performer immortalized as a handmade glass ornament. For 2019, the honor goes to Angela Lansbury in the title role of Mame. You can grab this one at BroadwayCares.org .
A couple of months ago, I went to an event which featured celebrities playing the game You Don't Know My Life, which is described as "The TMI Party game with no wrong answers ... just #inappropriate ones." The game was created by my pal Dennis Hensley, with Jeb Havens, and is based on Hensley's experience of interviewing celebrities and asking odd questions to get them | 0.079187 | -0.465852 | -1.20434 | -1.629373 | [

to tell offbeat stories. If you play this with the right people ( the night I was there, both Frank DeCaro and Melissa Peterman were playing ), it can be both hysterical and shocking. On that fateful night, I shared a long-forgotten story about me and Ben Stiller on an airplane—but I'll save that for another time. This is great to play with friends, both old and new. Grab it at YouDontKnowMyLifeGame.com .
Here's a first—this week's "Ask Billy" question comes from within my own organization! My proofreader Aaron wrote, "I just read about Jason Derulo's dick being censored online. So now I wanna see it."
Obviously I have the photo in question, but I didn't plan on running it. Why? They discussed this on The Talk. If I live by one rule of thumb, it's that there's no reason to share a story that has been discussed by Marie Osmond. But rules are made to be broken. Jason posted a photo where he was clad only in some tight-fitting black boxer briefs—briefs which showed a sizable tubular structure across the front. When a fan asked what was in there, Derulo said an "anaconda." Apparently harboring an animal in your undies is an Instagram no-no. The social media platform said the photo was "taken down for nudity or sexual activity." Jason shot back, "I can't help my size." When they discussed this on The Talk, someone wondered if it was discrimination. Why can you show a large-breasted woman in a tight T-shirt but not a large-penised man in tight undies? Food for thought. That food was a bit much for Instagram, but it's an all-you-can-eat buffet at BillyMasters.com .
When being big is bad, it's definitely time to end yet another column. Sigh—if I had a nickel for every time I was called too big ... well, I'd be flying Frontier Airlines forever! And I'd be updatingBillyMasters.com, the site where size is never an issue. If you have a question, send it along to [email protected] and I promise to get back to you before I tell you which celebrity mentioned in this week's column actually kissed my hand. Here's a hint—we have a nude photo of him on the website, too! So, until next time, remember: One man's filth is another man's bible.

Take a short car ride to the town of Long Melford, which is reported to have been both a Roman and Anglo-Saxon settlement. It was a thriving Tudor village, with two great halls, and nowadays it attracts visitors from all over the country who come to wonder at the 'Hall Houses' lining the main high street and enjoy tasteful boutique shops as well as tea rooms.
Approximately 15 minutes from the hotel is the medieval village of Lavenham – famous as a centre for wool trade during the reign of Henry VIII and once ranked as the fourteenth wealthiest town in England.
A walk through Lavenham is akin to boarding a time machine and travelling centuries back in time. The timber-framed houses lean precariously into the street and standing in the centre of the Market Place you can easily picture a thriving melee complete with horse-drawn carts and sword-swinging knights. A visit to the National Trust Guildhall is a must and the quaint tearooms lining your path provide the perfect pit stops.
The ancient market town of Sudbury was famous for having a prosperous weaving and silk industry. Places to visit in Sudbury include: the Market Hill, St Peter's Church, the old town Corn Exchange (now a library) and the shopping on North Street.
Sudbury was home to the famous artist Thomas Gainsborough and his place of residence is now a popular museum. A statue of the artist sits in front of St Peter's Church.

Southwold - Pier & Shops
Only an hour and twenty minutes away, the coastal town of Southwold is a fun day for everyone. With a working lighthouse, functional pier, penny slots and beach huts, Southwold is the epitome of a sunny Suffolk beachside getaway.
Take a walk to St Edmund's Church, hop a foot ferry to Walberswick or book a brewery tour at Adnams Brewery and Distillery.
Layer Marney Tower
On the outskirts of Colchester town, approximately 35 minutes by car from SbN, stands the grand house of Layer Marney. This structure was built in the 1520s and incorporates a tower which is the tallest Tudor Gatehouse in the country.
Hedingham Castle
Hedingham Castle is a 900 year old Norman keep that was constructed by the De Vere family. This landmark is arguably one of the best preserved Norman Castles in England and well worth a visit for the history and for a wander through its setting of 160 acres of gardens.
The Castle holds many events, including theatrical performances, medieval fayres and historical walks. Just a short 30 minute drive through the countryside, this site is a perfect family day out.
Beth Chatto Gardens
From its beginnings as an overgrown wasteland attached to the Chatto fruit farm, the Beth Chatto Gardens has become an inspirational, informal garden and a plant nursery, which houses a number of unusual plants.
Located approximately 30 minutes from Stoke by Nayland Hotel on the outskirts of Colchester, the Gardens are an | 1.465983 | 1.158248 | 0.342767 | -0.839044 | [

EFAs: A Fat Chance At Optimum Health
© 2006 Wellness Clubs of America.com<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
My father-in-law, a Minnesota dairy farmer, was a man that occasionally enjoyed a little bread with his butter. No meal setting was complete without a generous supply of the smooth, yellow spread. The introduction of oleomargarine upset him greatly.
His dislike of margarine was not based solely upon the potential economic effect on his business. He saw this interloper, cosmetically designed to have a texture and appearance similar to his beloved spread as a threat to the long-term health and well being of those who chose to consume it. It can't be good for you, he insisted, it's not a real food.
Time has proven that his assessment was correct. Hydrogenated fats and trans fatty acids, the chemically altered substances that give margarine the appearance and texture of butter are now recognized as significant factors in the atherogenic process – the "hardening of the arteries" that leads to heart attacks, strokes, and other serious threats to health. The latter half of the twentieth century will almost certainly be viewed historically as the era during which the human race, believing that it could eliminate disease by improving upon the foods that had been provided to it, discovered how to effectively create epidemics of diabetes, obesity, atherosclerosis, cancer, ADHD, and a host of other chronic and often fatal illnesses.
In the July 2003 issue of Health By Design I wrote about refined carbohydrates. I explained that refined sugars and starches have lost their nutritive value, having had their mineral and vitamin content stripped away in the refining process. Refining of fats and oils has resulted in a comparable deficiency in the type of fats that are essential to health and survival. Despite eating diets high in overall fat content, surveys have shown that most people in the United States are obtaining only ten percent of the fats they need to maintain optimum health.
The fats the body requires for effective maintenance and repair functions are called essential fatty acids (EFAs). The term "essential" means that we are incapable of manufacturing these substances and must obtain them from our diet. Several factors account for the widespread essential fatty acid deficiencies seen today.
The first is the modification of naturally occurring fats. Essential fatty acids are found in mono and polyunsaturated fats. Because these fats are liquid at room temperature they do not work well as butter substitutes or as ingredients in packaged foods. Adding additional chemical entities to unsaturated fats causes them to become solid at room temperature, making them more acceptable as spreads or as additions to packaged foods.
Unfortunately, these modified fats called "hydrogenated" or "trans" fats cannot be utilized by the body. In addition, they have been shown to play a significant role in the development of atherosclerosis.
The second factor contributing to fatty acid deficiencies is an imbalance of the types of essential fatty acids in the diet. Two categories of essential fatty acids exist. These are referred to as omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids.
Because the oil products most commonly sold in grocery stores and the oils most commonly added to processed foods are high in omega-6 fatty acids, most people obtain more than enough omega-6 fatty acids from the foods they eat. Very few, however, obtain significant quantities of omega-3 oils from their diet. While a 4:1 ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 oils is considered optimum, most Americans consume more than 20 times more omega-6 oils than omega-3 oils on a daily basis. To understand how this impacts our health it is necessary to know something about a group of substances called prostaglandins.
In the 1930s a Swedish scientist, Ulf von Euler, identified a new chemical in fluid from the prostate gland. He named the chemical prostaglandin. We now know that such chemicals are not unique to the prostate, but are manufactured throughout the body to produce a wide variety of effects.

ones, which are made in specialized glands and distributed throughout the body, prostaglandins are manufactured on location and act only in that location.
Prostaglandins influence a wide array of body reactions. They affect the amount of protective mucus lining the stomach, trigger the onset of labor, and can cause constriction in bronchial tubes. Some prostaglandins trigger inflammation while others fight inflammation. Certain prostaglandins encourage the formation of blood clots; others keep the blood from clotting.
While the medical community commonly speaks of "good" prostaglandins and "bad" prostaglandins such labels are misleading. Prostaglandins simply do what they are manufactured to do. Whether the end result of their action is beneficial or harmful is not determined by the presence of "good" or "bad" prostaglandins, but by the body's ability to manufacture the proper prostaglandin in any particular situation.
Viewing prostaglandins as "bad" can lead to undesirable complications. The administration of aspirin and related compounds called non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is an example. NSAIDs work by blocking the body's ability to manufacture a substance called arachidonic acid, which leads to the production of inflammatory prostaglandins. Unfortunately, these drugs also block the body's ability to manufacture prostaglandins that are responsible for protecting the lining of the stomach from the caustic action of hydrochloric acid. This can have disastrous consequences as demonstrated by a report, published in the American Journal of Medicine, that 16,500 people in the United States died in 1997 as a direct result of the use of these drugs.
Given an adequate supply of raw materials the body will manufacture the proper prostaglandin in every situation. When deficiencies exist, however, the body's attempt to correct a challenge can result in the production of the wrong prostaglandin for the condition.
Imagine that an architect has designed a building that is to have a fascia composed of four red bricks for each black brick. This calls for sixteen loads of red bricks and four loads of black bricks. If the masons are supplied with 20 loads of red bricks and only one load of black bricks they can still complete the building. Its appearance, however, will not be what the architect intended.
When an individual's diet contains 20 omega-6 fatty acids for each omega-3 fatty acid the body cannot follow the blueprint it has been given. It will do its best, but the end result may not be what the architect intended.
Platelets and blood clots are an excellent example. The blueprint for platelets calls for an alternating pattern of fats within their membranes. If the body does not have enough omega-3 fats to complete the platelet membrane as designed it will use the fats it has on hand to complete the job. Improperly constituted platelet membranes, however, are "sticky" and tend to cause platelets to clump together.
Certain prostaglandins that are dependent upon the availability of omega-3 fatty acids for their manufacture decrease platelet stickiness and discourage clot formation. If the body does not have an adequate supply of omega-3 fats it will do its best, but the prostaglandins produced with omega-6 oils will increase platelet aggregation and stimulate clot formation.
The lack of omega-3 fats in the American diet forces the body to manufacture platelets that are sticky and prostaglandins that promote the formation of blood clots. The medical community has responded by recommending that people take an aspirin a day. Aspirin prevents platelets from sticking together in situations where a heart attack or stroke could occur, but it also prevents platelets from clumping and clots from forming when bleeding occurs. This increases the risk of bruising or bleeding when bumped or injured. It also significantly increases the risk of a bleed into the brain, an event known as a hemorrhagic stroke. A better approach is to allow the body to build platelets correctly and choose which prostaglandins should be manufactured by providing an ample supply of omega-3 fatty acids.
Signs and symptoms of essential fatty acid deficiencies are quite non-specific. Some are listlessness | 0.534604 | 1.158248 | 1.657808 | 0.998011 | [

, fatigue, dry skin and mucus membranes, constipation, depression, forgetfulness, joint pain, elevated blood pressure and cholesterol abnormalities. Low EFA levels have been shown to contribute to the development of over sixty disease states. These range from skin disorders such as acne and eczema to disabling conditions such as arthritis and multiple sclerosis, to potentially fatal diseases including cancer and heart disease.
The mechanisms by which essential fatty acid deficiencies influence disease development are becoming clear. Likewise, the manner in which EFAs support the body's ability to restore wellness in various situations is now understood.
For example, all malignant cells appear to have specific metabolic defects. Prostaglandin E1 (PGE1), in combination with another chemical, thromboxane A2, is able to reverse these metabolic abnormalities. Cancer cells, however, cannot manufacture PGE1 because they lack activity of an enzyme, delta-6-desaturase, which converts linoleic acid to gamma-linolenic acid.
Delta-6-desaturase activity is blocked by trans-fatty acids, saturated fats, & alcohol. In addition magnesium, vitamin B-6, vitamin C, and zinc must be present for delta-6-desaturase activity to occur. Increasing the intake of omega-3 fatty acids counters the blocking action of the trans-fats and saturated fats allowing the manufacture of PGE1 to resume. This may explain the beneficial effects of flaxseed oil consumption by cancer patients reported by German biochemist Dr. Johanna Budwig and to some degree the beneficial effects of vitamin C reported by Dr. Linus Pauling.
Dr. Budwig advocated a diet free of sugar, animal fat, salad oil, meat, butter, and margarine. She recommended supplementing the diet with a blend of 2 tablespoons of flaxseed oil and ¼ cup of quark, which is similar to cottage cheese and yogurt. She found that combining the oil with the quark made it more bioavailable and therefore more beneficial.
Dr. Pauling advocated high amounts of vitamin C in the presence of cancer and reported improvement in a number of patients. It is now known that vitamin C is able to enhance delta-6-desaturase activity, improving the ability of essential fatty acids to restore normal function in cancer cells.
While cholesterol remains paramount in the minds of most Americans concerned about preventing heart disease, research has shown that inflammation in the lining of arterial walls plays a much greater role in the development of atherosclerosis. Increasing omega-3 intake improves the body's ability to produce anti-inflammatory prostaglandins. These play an important role in preventing and reversing the inflammation that triggers plaque formation.
In addition, adequate intake of omega-3 fatty acids improves the ratio of LDL to HDL cholesterol. This makes LDL cholesterol less subject to free radical damage (oxidation), further lowering the risk of cardiovascular disease.
Inflammation is also one of the root causes of asthma. Cortisone-like drugs have traditionally been used to calm inflammation in the bronchial tubes and reduce the frequency and severity of asthma attacks. More recently, drugs designed to inhibit the action of certain leukotrienes have been introduced.
Leukotrienes are closely related to prostaglandins. Just as in the case of prostaglandins, the body can produce either inflammatory or anti-inflammatory leukotrienes provided the proper balance of fatty acids is available. Inflammatory leukotrienes dominate when a high omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acid ratio is present.
In addition, when the diet is deficient in omega-3 fatty acids, prostaglandins that cause bronchial tubes to narrow and constrict are produced. Supplementation of omega-3 fatty acids can result in significant improvement in asthma by restoring the body's ability to manufacture prostaglandins that encourage relaxation and opening of the bronchial tubes and less inflammatory leukotrienes.
The principles surrounding asthma apply to "hay fever | 1.003033 | 1.802874 | 2.109259 | 1.52869 | [

Życiorys
Wczesne lata
Urodził się w Brookline w stanie Massachusetts w rodzinie rzymskokatolickiej jako syn lekarza i profesora medycyny Thomasa Francisa O'Briena i adwokat Ruth M. (z domu Reardon). Wychowywał się z piątką rodzeństwa: dwoma starszymi braćmi - Nealem (ur. 1960) i Luke (ur. 1962) i młodszym Justinem (ur. 1973) oraz dwiema młodszymi siostrami - Kate (ur. 1964) i Jane (ur. 1967). Jego kuzyn to aktor i komik Denis Leary.
Uczęszczał do Brookline High School. W 1981 roku podjął studia na wydziale historii i literatury na Uniwersytecie Harvarda, który ukończył z cum laude w 1985 roku.
Kariera
W latach 1987–91 na kanale NBC pełnił rozmaite role w 21. odcinkach Saturday Night Live. W latach 1991-93 był producentem i współscenarzystą czterech odcinków animowanego serialu komediowego The Simpsons. Odcinki, które współtworzył to "Marge vs. the Monorail", "New Kid on the Block", "Homer Goes to College" oraz "Treehouse of Horror IV".
Late Night (1993-2009)
Po odejściu Davida Lettermana z Late Night with David Letterman, stanowisko prowadzącego dostał nieznany jeszcze wtedy w świecie telewizji O'Brien. Pierwszy odcinek Late Night with Conan O'Brien został wyemitowany 13 września. Program był kręcony w studiu 6A w Rockefeller Center w Nowym Jorku. Zespołem muzycznym wykonującym muzykę w czołówce oraz przerywniki reklamowe został The Max Weinberg 7 pod przewodnictwem perkusisty, Maxa Weinberga. Lektorem zapowiadającym gości i prowadzącego był Joel Godard. Do 2000 roku współprowadzącym był przyjaciel O'Briena, Andy Richter, który opuścił program w celu rozwijania kariery aktorskiej. Ostatni odcinek został wyemitowany 20 lutego 2009 roku, po czym O'Brien przeprowadził się do Los Angeles w celu przygotowywania się do prowadzenia The Tonight Show, a nowym prowadzącym Late Night został Jimmy Fallon.
The Tonight Show (2009-2010)
W 2009 roku przejął od Jaya Leno, który zaczął prowadzić nowy program The Jay Leno Show, słynne The Tonight Show. Program The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien zadebiutował 1 czerwca, gośćmi w pierwszym odcinku byli Will Ferrell i zespół Pearl Jam. Program był kręcony w studiach Universal Studios w Hollywood. O'Brienowi ponownie towarzyszył zespół Maxa Weinberga, pod nową nazwą The Tonight Show Band. Wrócił również Andy Richter, tym razem wcielając się w rolę lektora. W styczniu 2010, w wyniku słabej oglądalności zarówno O'Briena, jak i Leno, NBC zdecydowało się przenieść oba programy o godzinę później. O'Brien nie zgodził się na taki układ, argumentując to tym, iż przenies | -0.737825 | -0.994088 | -1.293108 | -0.961471 | [

For other uses, see thunderbird (disambiguation).
The 1958 addition of a rear seat to the Thunderbird, while initially controversial, marked the creation of market segment eventually known as personal luxury vehicles. An American interpretation of the grand tourer, personal luxury cars were built with a higher emphasis on driving comfort and convenience features over handling and high-speed performance. From 1968 to 1998, Lincoln-Mercury marketed their own versions of the Thunderbird as the Mercury Cougar and the Continental Mark III, Mark IV, Mark V, Lincoln Mark VII, and Lincoln Mark VIII.
The Thunderbird entered production for the 1955 model year as a sporty two-seat convertible. Unlike the Chevrolet Corvette, it was not marketed as a sports car. Ford positioned the Thunderbird as an upscale model and is credited in developing a new market segment, the personal luxury car. In 1958, the Thunderbird gained a second row of seats. Succeeding generations became larger until the line was downsized in 1977, again in 1980, and once again in 1983. Sales were good until the 1990s, when large 2-door coupes became unpopular. Initial production ceased at the end of 1997. In 2002, production of the Thunderbird started again; a revived 2-seat model was launched which was available through the end of the 2005 model year. From its introduction in 1955 to its final phaseout in 2005, Ford produced over 4.4 million Thunderbirds.
The men and their teams generally credited with the creation of the original Thunderbird are: Lewis Crusoe, a former GM executive lured out of retirement by Henry Ford II; George Walker, chief stylist and a Ford vice-president; Frank Hershey, chief stylist for Ford Division; Bill Boyer, designer Body Development Studio who became manager of Thunderbird Studio in spring of 1955; and Bill Burnett, chief engineer. Ford Designer William P. Boyer was lead stylist on the original 1955 two-seater Thunderbird and also had a hand in designing the future series of Thunderbirds including the 30th Anniversary Edition. Hershey's participation in the creation of the Thunderbird was more administrative than artistic. Crusoe and Walker met in France in October 1951. Walking in the Grand Palais in Paris, Crusoe pointed at a sports car and asked Walker, 'Why can't we have something like that?' Some versions of the story claim that Walker replied by telling Crusoe, "oh, we're working on it" ... although if anything existed at the time beyond casual dream-car sketches by members of the design staff, records of it have never come to light.
The name was not among the thousands proposed, including rejected options such as Apache (the original name of the P-51 Mustang), Falcon (owned by Chrysler at the time), Eagle, Tropicale, Hawaiian, and Thunderbolt. A Ford stylist who had lived in the southwest submitted the Thunderbird name. The word "thunderbird" is a reference to a legendary creature for North American indigenous people. It is considered a supernatural bird of power and strength.
The Ford Thunderbird began life in February 1953 in direct response to Chevrolet's new sports car, the Corvette, which was publicly unveiled in prototype form just a month before. Under rapid development, the Thunderbird went from idea to prototype in about a year, being unveiled to the public at the Detroit Auto Show on February 20, 1954. It was a two-seat design available with a detachable glass-fibre hard top and a folding fabric top. Production of the Thunderbird began later on in 1954 on September 9 with the car beginning sales as a 1955 model on October 22, 1954. Though sharing some design characteristics with other Fords of the time, such as single, circular headlamps and tail lamps and modest tailfins, the Thunderbird was sleeker and more athletic in shape, and had features like a hood scoop and a 150 mph (240 km/h) speedometer hinting a higher performance | 0.882501 | 1.856593 | 0.382079 | -0.06725 | [

nature that other Fords didn't possess. Mechanically though, the Thunderbird could trace its roots to other mainstream Fords. The Thunderbird's 102.0 inches (2,591 mm) wheelbase frame was mostly a shortened version of that used in other Fords while the car's standard 292 cu in (4.8 L) Y-block V8 came from Ford's Mercury division.
The Thunderbird was revised for 1957 with a reshaped front bumper, a larger grille and tailfins, and larger tail lamps. The instrument panel was heavily re-styled with round gauges in a single pod, and the rear of the car was lengthened, allowing the spare tire to be positioned back in the trunk. The 312 cu in (5.1 L) V8 became the Thunderbird's standard engine, and now produced 245 horsepower (183 kW). Other, even more powerful versions of the 312 cu in (5.1 L) V8 were available including one with two four-barrel Holley carburetors and another with a Paxton supercharger delivering 300 horsepower (220 kW). Though Ford was pleased to see sales of the Thunderbird rise to a record-breaking 21,380 units for 1957, company executives felt the car could do even better, leading to a substantial redesign of the car for 1958.
Although the 1955-57 Thunderbird was a success, Ford executives—particularly Robert McNamara – were concerned that the car's position as a two-seater limited its sales potential. As a result, the car was redesigned as a four-seater for 1958.
The new Thunderbird began a sales momentum previously unseen with the car, selling 200,000 units in three years, four times the result of the two seat model. This success spawned a new market segment, the personal luxury car. It was the first individual model line (as opposed to an entire company) to earn Motor Trend "Car of the Year" honors.
It was offered in both hardtop and convertible body styles, although the latter was not introduced until June 1958, five months after the release of the hardtop. The new Thunderbird was considerably larger than the previous generation, with a longer 113.0 inches (2,870 mm) wheelbase to accommodate the new back seat. The increased size also increased the car's weight significantly by close to 1,000 pounds (454 kg). Along with a new, more rigid unibody construction was new styling, including quad headlights, more prominent tailfins, a bolder chrome grille, and a larger, though non-functional, hood scoop. Powering the Thunderbird was a new, 300 horsepower (220 kW) 352 cu in (5.8 L) FE V8, available with a 3-speed manual or automatic transmissions.
In the part of model year 1958 that the car was available, sales were 37,892 units, outselling the previous model year 16,000 units.
For 1959, the car received a new grille and a newly optional, 350 horsepower (260 kW) 430 cu in (7.0 L) MEL V8 for 1959, sales climbed even higher to 67,456.
For 1960, the Thunderbird was given another new grille and other minor stylistic changes along with a newly optional manually operated sunroof for hardtop models. Dual-unit round taillights from 1958 to 1959 were changed to triple-units after the fashion of the Chevrolet Impala. Customers continued to approve of the car as it broke sales records yet again with 92,843 sold for 1960. Ford went ahead with a redesign for the Thunderbird to debut in 1961.
The Thunderbird was redesigned for 1961 with sleeker styling that gave the car a distinctively bullet-like appearance. A new engine, the 390 cu in (6.4 L) FE V8, was the standard and only | 0.516798 | 1.684693 | 0.250195 | -0.06595 | [

engine initially offered in the Thunderbird. The V8 produced 300 horsepower (220 kW) and was mated to a 3-speed automatic transmission. The new Thunderbird was immediately well received with 73,051 sold for 1961.
The car was 1961's Indianapolis 500 pace car and was featured prominently in US President John F. Kennedy's inaugural parade, who appointed Ford executive Robert McNamara as Secretary of Defense. It also benefitted from product placement, notably on the popular television series 77 Sunset Strip.
A vinyl-roofed Landau option with simulated S-bars was added to the Thunderbird for 1962 as was a Sports Roadster package for convertible models. The Sports Roadster included 48-spoke Kelsey-Hayes designed wire wheels and a special fiberglass tonneau cover for the rear seats which gave the car the appearance of a two-seat roadster like the original Thunderbird. The Sports Roadster package was slow-selling due the high price of the package and complexity of the tonneau cover, resulting in few Thunderbirds being equipped with it. Newly optional for 1962 was an upgraded version of the 390 cu in (6.4 L) V8 called the "M-Code" (a nickname used in reference to the letter M used as the engine code in the VIN in cars so equipped). The M-Code version of the 390 cu in (6.4 L) V8 was equipped with three two-barrel Holley carburetors and could produce 340 horsepower (250 kW). M-Code V8 Thunderbirds are exceptionally rare with only 200 being sold between 1962 and 1963. For 1963 only, Y-code cars could come equipped with the same 390 cubic inch V-8 also equipped by the factory with tri-power carburetors only if the buyer desired air conditioning.
Few other changes were made to the Thunderbird for 1963 as Ford prepared to introduce a new version for 1964. A horizontal styling line was added that ran from the point where bumper and fender meet back through the door and angled down. Small diagonal chrome bars were added in this area on the door. Alternators rather than generators were a new feature on all 1963 Thunderbirds.
For 1964 the Thunderbird was restyled in favor of a more squared-off appearance, which was mostly evident when viewing the car from the side or rear. Hinting at its roots in the previous generation Thunderbird that it evolved from, the new model retained a similar grille design with quad headlights and a 113.2 inches (2,875 mm) wheelbase. As before, the new Thunderbird continued to be offered in hardtop, convertible, and Landau versions. The 300 horsepower (220 kW) 390 cu in (6.4 L) FE V8 continued as the standard engine for the Thunderbird. It was paired with a 3-speed automatic transmission. For 1965, sequential turn signals were added, flashing the individual segments of the broad, horizontal tail lights in sequences from inside to outside to indicate a turn. Also new for 1965 were standard front disc brakes, and doubled sided keys.
Even though it was the last year of the generation, 1966 saw a stylistic revision for the Thunderbird highlighted by a new egg-crate style grille with a large Thunderbird emblem at its center and a single-blade front bumper. The rear bumper was restyled to include new full-width taillamps. Engine choices were also revised for 1966. The standard 390 cu in (6.4 L) V8 equipped with a single four-barrel carburetor produced 315 horsepower (235 kW). Newly optional and taking the top position for performance was a 345 horsepower (257 kW) 428 cu in (7.0 L) FE V8. The 428 cost only $86 over the base engine, and was a popular option. This would be the last year for the convertible until the "retro | 0.29902 | 1.580836 | -0.228521 | -0.248696 | [
