That's it for the always-reliable Indian restaurant at 334 E. Sixth St. between First Avenue and Second Avenue that opened in 1973.
The sign posted to the front door sends would-be patrons to Haveli, their sister restaurant around the corner on Second Avenue...
And this makes three Indian restaurants now in one at Haveli. Banjara moved here in late 2013.

Fucking sad. I loved this place.
This one particularly hurts.
SCHWIMMER STRIKES AGAIN
Pretty soon all of 6th street will have been merged into a single Indian restaurant.
I used to like the weekend buffet but an experience with one idiot waiter has kept me out of there for the past year or so...its no longer curry row, its now noodle row.
In the late 70s, when there were perhaps a dozen Indian restaurants on E. 6 St., we believed they all shared a common kitchen. The $4.95 curry dinners were remarkably identical from place to place.
So we were planning to go to Mitali for dinner tonight, but when we got there it was closed. So we went over to Kabin for a drink to discuss where to go next, but it was closed too. Then we said, lets go over to Mercadito. Oops. Too late, It's closed too. Well, at least we can go get some pastries and espresso at DeRobertis. But of course it was closed. Ok, so maybe we should just go home and order some Benny's Burritos? Nope. Closed. How about Simone? Yaffa Cafe? Bereket? Gray's Papaya? Funkiberry? Dollar Pizza? Uh uh. All Closed. So I said well, then lets go out to Brooklyn, they have pretty good food over there. But then I heard that it's closed.
Mitali East has been CROMANATED by notorious predatory landlords Steve & Harriet Croman, the poster persons for insaitable landlord greed that has taken over this city and ruined it. The Cromans are responsible for ruining the lives and livelihoods of countless people. May all the harm and destruction they have caused over the years to people and to this city fall back on them a thousandfold. Your Karma awaits you Steve and Harriet Croman! |
Jayne Mansfield (born Vera Jayne Palmer; April 19, 1933 - June 29, 1967) was an American movie, stage, and television actress. She was also a nightclub entertainer, a singer, and one of the early Playboy Playmates. Mansfield became a major Broadway star in 1955, a major movie star in 1956, and a major celebrity in 1957.
Early years
Mansfield was the only child of Herbert William Palmer (1904-1936) and Vera Jeffrey Palmer (1903-2000). She was born in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania. Her father was of German descent and her mother was of English descent.
After her father's death in 1936, Jayne, her mother, and stepfather Harry Lawrence Peers moved to Dallas, Texas. After high school graduation, she studied acting at Southern Methodist University and the University of Texas at Austin.
While in college, she had a number of small jobs such as hat check girl and nightclub photographer. She won many beauty pageants. She performed in local theater productions around Austin.
Career
In 1955, Mansfield went to New York City. She appeared in the Broadway production of Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter? The critics praised her performance. She appeared in 400 plus shows of the play between 1955 and 1956.
She went to Hollywood in 1956. 20th Century Fox signed her to a six-year contract in an effort to replace the troubled Marilyn Monroe. Her first starring movie role was Jerri Jordan in The Girl Can't Help It (1956).
During production, she still appeared on Broadway in Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter? The movie studio finally bought out her contract, and shut the show down. In 1957, she appeared in a movie version of the play.
Mansfield's movies include The Wayward Bus (1957), Too Hot to Handle (1960), and Promises! Promises! (1963). She won the Golden Globe for Most Promising Newcomer - Female for The Wayward Bus. On television, she made guest appearances on drama series, game shows, variety shows, and many talk shows.
Mansfield was one of Hollywood's original blonde bombshells. When the demand for big-breasted blonde bombshells decreased in the early 1960s, she became a box-office has-been.
She remained a popular celebrity however. Her nightclub acts and summer theater appearances attracted crowds. She made cheap "indies" and European melodramas and comedies.
Mansfield became the first major American actress to have a nude starring role in a Hollywood movie. The movie was Promises! Promises!. Hugh Hefner published nude photographs of Mansfield on the movie set in the June 1963 issue of Playboy. He was tried in Chicago city court on obscenity charges, but was acquitted.
Personal
Mansfield married public relations professional Paul Mansfield in 1950. They had one daughter, Jayne Marie Mansfield. The couple divorced in 1956. Jayne kept "Mansfield" as her professional name.
She married actor-bodybuilder Mickey Hargitay in 1958. They had three children, Miklos Jeffrey Palmer Hargitay, Zoltan Anthony Hargitay, and Mariska Magdolna Hargitay. They divorced in 1963.
She married Italian-born movie director Matt Cimber (a.k.a. Matteo Ottaviano, ne Thomas Vitale Ottaviano) in 1964. They had one son, Antonio Raphael Ottaviano (Tony Cimber). The couple separated in 1966. Their divorce was pending when Mansfield was killed in 1967.
Death
Mansfield was killed in a car crash in June 1967. She was going to New Orleans for a television interview when her car crashed into the back of a truck. Her lover Sam Brody and her driver Ronnie Harrison were also killed. Three of her children - Miklos, Zoltan and Mariska - escaped death with minor injuries. An urban legend about Mansfield being decapitated in the crash is untrue. She was buried on July 3 in Pennsylvania. Her gravestone is heart-shaped. |

When mapping crime, it is helpful to distinguish between acute and chronic hot spots (Step 17). Acute hot spots show abnormal spikes in crime, which may decline naturally, while chronic hot spots have persistently higher crime levels than other areas and are unlikely to decline unless something is done. There are three basic forms of chronic hot spots, each of them linked to particular theories and types of responses.
- Hot dots are locations with high crime levels. These show crime concentrated at facilities or at addresses of repeat victims (see Steps 28 and 29). Multiple crime events at places are represented by dots.
- Hot lines are street segments where crime is concentrated. These might occur, for example, if vehicles parked along particular streets suffer high rates of break-ins. Multiple crimes along street segments are shown with lines.
- Hot areas are neighborhoods where crime is concentrated. Hot areas arise for a variety or reasons. Area characteristics may give rise to crime. Or a hot area may contain many separate and discrete problems. On maps, hot areas are shown as shaded areas, contour lines, or gradients depicting crime levels. Jerry Ratcliffe's hot spot typology (see box) differentiates between two kinds of area hot spots:
- those that have a tightly grouped pattern of events and
- those that have a relatively even spread of events over the hot spot area.
The figure depicts these three forms of hot spots. Troublesome entertainment locations are shown as dots because the assaults are located at addresses. Vehicle break-ins, however, are along continuous street segments, so this concentration is shown as two intersecting lines. Finally, the graduated contours for the residential hot spot suggests that risk for break-ins is highest in one small area but declines as one goes away from the center. The dots within this graduated area depict repeat burglary locations.
Clarifying the nature of your hot spot gives an inkling of response:
- Hot dots suggest changing the physical environment of particular places or changing their management. They also suggest intervening with high-risk victims.
- Hot lines suggest changing streets, paths and other routes, or the environments along them.
- Hot areas suggest large-scale partnerships to change neighborhoods.
The table shows how crime concentration is related to the way it is mapped, and where the response is focused.
Concentration, Mapping and Action
Types of Hotspots
Ratcliffe's Hot Spot Typology
Jerry Ratcliffe differentiates among three types of hot spots. He begins with a hot spot area and then examines the point pattern. If all events occur at the same location then the hot spot is a "hot point." Hot points describe the same phenomena as hot dots. If the events are tightly grouped within the overall area, Ratcliffe calls this a "clustered" hot spot. Finally, if the events are spread relatively evenly across the hot spot area, he calls the hot spot "dispersed." Clustered and dispersed hot spots are subcategories of our category of "hot area." Ratcliffe's approach draws attention to the concentration of the events and requires the analyst to define the perimeter of the hot spot area prior to classifying the hot spot.
Source: Ratcliffe, Jerry (2004). "The Hotspot Matrix: A Framework for the Spatio-Temporal Targeting of Crime Reduction". Police Practice and Research 5:5-23.
Analysis of hot spots should begin with places, then move to streets, and finally to areas. Consider, for example, the problem of burned-out cars. Are they repeatedly found at specific addresses? If yes, then you should ask why these places are chosen instead of other nearby sites. If no, you should move on to examine streets. If you find street-level concentration, you should compare streets to find out why some attract burned-out cars and others do not. If there is little street-level concentration (i.e., crime is spread relatively evenly across many streets), then you should consider community concentration and compare high- and low-concentration neighborhoods. This approach assures a highly focused response.
In the figure, the hot burglary dots indicate repeat victims within the overall neighborhood problem. An area hot spot alone would not reveal this. Before proceeding further, you should determine if the area hot spot is largely due to the few repeat burglary spots. You can do this by treating each crime location as if it had only a single event, and then look at the area. If it is no longer hot, then the problem is driven by a few hot places. If the area is still hot, then these repeat burglary dots are fragments of an area concentration of burglaries.
Hot spot analysis can be a valuable tool early in the problem-solving process, but having discovered hot spots, you need to ask why some spots are hot and others are not. Stopping analysis after the discovery of hot spots can result in superficial analysis and the implementation of ineffective responses. If there is no geographical component to the problem, hot spot mapping has little utility and you must use other analytical approaches.

State Funding
The ongoing corona crisis is threatening the existence of companies in virtually all sectors. In addition to the funding instruments provided by the Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau (KfW) and other local state banks, the federal and regional governments have announced further programmes intended to provide short-term support for the German economy.
As well as ensuring they meet the formal conditions for receiving state aid, it is absolutely essential for companies to adjust their planning on a continuous basis and to monitor their cash flow and capital requirements closely. Automated rating procedures by lending banks and breaches of the covenants attached to loans mean that the reporting obligations with which distressed entities are faced will increase in the near future. Plausible, verifiable cash flow planning is a vital formal component of applications for existing state aid, and for any other programme that may be added in future. It becomes even more important in the context of the particular risks that arise if an entity is “borderline insolvent”. Cash flow planning is the only way to judge whether the conditions for suspending the obligation to declare insolvency are met, for one thing. The other is that it makes it possible to avoid risks under criminal and civil law, D&O liability and financing risks.
Our teams of experts are available to advise you on all matters relating to business plans and do support to calculate your short- and longer-term liquidity and capital requirements. This enables us to make a key contribution to fulfilling even more demanding reporting obligations and to obtaining state aid.

Facebook expects its new "Graph Search" product — which allows users to search their friends' information for common interests and recommendations — to bolster its Pages offering for businesses.
Pages for businesses are Facebook's most essential building block for advertisers. They're free, any business can have one, and they're a place for advertisers to make offers to their fans, provide photos, and interact with customers.
Facebook said today that as Graph Search allows people to find out which restaurants or movies (or anything else) their friends like, it places added importance on businesses keeping a relevant, up-to-date Page.
Graph Search has two obvious consequences for businesses:
- Advertisers with good reputations among users' friends will get more business than those with bad ones. This suggests that Graph Search is a threat to Yelp and Google's Zagat listings.
- If Graph Search drives more traffic to Pages, it will go some way to mollifying advertisers who were dismayed by changes to Facebook's News Feed algorithm change last year (sometimes called Edgerank) that reduced the number of fans that automatically see any given post on an advertiser's page.
Here's the crucial part of the company's statement:

Philip II was an ancient king of Macedonia. He ruled from 359 BC to 336 BC. He was the father of the emperor Alexander the Great, who was born in 356 BC. Philip united all of Ancient Greece. He would either bring a city-state into his hegemony with his military or he would talk/bribe the leaders into joining his empire. It was under his reign in 338 BC at Chaeronea against Athens that Alexander first showed his military genius. Philip was assassinated by one of his bodyguards, at the celebration of the wedding of his daughter. Alexander soon carried out Philip's plan to attack the Persian Empire.

Sweden national debt is fixed under the transaction number L9NDT. On 5 September 2016, at 05:27 AM, it accounted for $206,092,866,030. On that day, the population of Sweden was 9,967,193 people and the country's GDP was $510,846,987,519 - this means that government debt relative to GDP was 40.34%. The average debt per resident is $20,678 and this indicator is constantly rising.

The Americas (or America) are lands in the Western Hemisphere that are also known as the New World. Comprising the continents of North America and South America, along with their associated islands, they cover 8.3% of the Earth's total surface area (28.4% of its land area).
Most people consider the countries in Central America to be part of North America instead of South America.
While the word American is usually used to mean a person or a thing from the United States, the most populated country in the Americas, sometimes people and things from anywhere in the Americas are called "American".
The Americas, or America, were discovered by Europeans in the late 15th century during the Age of Exploration. Christopher Columbus, sailing for Spain, reached the Caribbean islands in 1492, starting the connection between the Old World and the New World. After that, Europeans explored and settled in the Americas.
In the 16th century, powerful empires existed in the Americas. The Aztec Empire ruled central Mexico, and the Inca Empire controlled much of western South America. But when European colonizers arrived, conflicts happened, and these empires eventually fell.
During the next centuries, countries like Spain, Portugal, France, and England created colonies in different parts of the Americas. This led to changes in cultures, introduction of new diseases, and negative effects on native people.
In the 19th century, many American countries became independent from European rule. The American Revolution (1775-1783) led to the United States forming, and leaders like Simon Bolivar helped South American countries gain independence.
Over time, the Americas experienced important events like westward expansion in the U.S., the Mexican-American War, the Mexican Revolution, and the Cuban Revolution. The continent played a big role in World Wars and the Cold War too.
Today, the Americas have diverse cultures, languages, and traditions due to their history of interactions between indigenous people, European settlers, and immigrants from around the world.

Getabird injury continues spate of bad luck for champion
Getabird, who had been a general 4-1 favourite for the Weatherbys Champion Bumper at Cheltenham Festival, will miss the race due to injury.
The setback is not thought to be career threatening but it caps an unrelenting time for both Willie Mullins and owner Rich Ricci, as within the past couple of weeks alone the pair have lost Faugheen, Min and Annie Power from their festival squad due to injuries.
Mullins said: "He just was not right after Gowran. I gave him an easy ten days and then I got the vet to look at him yesterday morning and he said he was not happy with his sesamoid bone behind.
"The right thing to do is give him a bit of time off but we will see. I've not got a chance to have a real good look at it yet but he is lame."
Meanwhile, one horse who will not be back in racecourse action again is the Jim Dreaper-trained Goonyella, who suffered ligament damage in the cross country chase at Cheltenham in December.

Keith If you are going to continue these kind of adventures you really need a GS.. When I sold my RS and bought my RT I thought it may be the best bike ever, but then when I rode a demo GS and purchased one I knew I now had the very best Beemer ever.
Soon, I’ll give one a ride. I get the RT serviced soon and could probably take one out for a spin. |

If you've been in the market for beautifully made, waterproof leather bags anytime in the last five years, you will have undoubtedly come across Troubadour, the London-based brand of Samuel Bail and Abel Samet, who have carved a niche in high-end and highly functional contemporary bags. The pair have created a unique aesthetic that cleverly bridges smart and casual, incorporating a minimal aesthetic that befits everyday business attire but doesn't ever appear too formal to use with a laidback weekend outfit. We caught up with Samuel recently to discuss the brand's rise from green start-up to fully fledged luxury bag maker.
Great to meet you Samuel. Why don't we start by telling me how Troubadour came to be?
So by way of a quick background, Abel and I were working together at Lazards bank, sitting across the desk from each other, and he would often ask me for some shoe recommendations. I'd send him a few links and then he'd buy a pair of shoes and we'd move on and continue working. And then at some point he wanted a new bag that he could travel with as he was always travelling for work. Plus, we were doing sports events together, marathons and stuff like that. And so he wanted a bag he could use for both. I shot him a few links and he fires back with, "Yeah, I don't like any of these bags."
So I say "Come on, Abel. They're fine bags. Pick a bag!" but he just didn't like anything he saw. And honestly, neither did I. So we thought it would be an interesting project just to figure out how a bag is made and so we ended up spending what turned into a year and a half, including taking a bag-making course at Central Saint Martin's on Sundays at a time when we were working in a job that often demanded seven days a week in the office. We'd have to explain to our boss that we couldn't be in on Sunday and we'd have to explain why, which was because we were taking a bag making course together, for which we got a lot of flack. Anyway, that all really piqued our interest so for the next step we decided to use our holidays to drive around Italy, Spain, France and England, stopping in at leather tanneries or zipper makers! We'd just turn up and ask for a tour! |
Texan English or Texas English are the two main varieties of English native to Texas. A Southern American variety and a Spanish influenced one.
Texas English
In the eastern part of the state, there's what some call a Southern accent with a twist. This twist refers to the other southern accents which came to Texas throughout the history of English being spoken there.
Features include:
Monothongization of ai (i dipthong), making words like ride, dice and dike sound like rod (or rad), dace and dock. Such glide deletion is found in most varieties of Southern American English.
The cot-caught merger in which words like stalk and stock, are pronounced exactly the same.
The o in words like majority, orange and horrible is always pronounced like the o in whore rather than that in stop.
Tejano English
The second major Texas English variety is Tejano English - the Hispanic variety common in the southwest part of the state.
Features include:
Dropping of t and d in words that end in these letters.
Pronunciation of the i monothong as ee.
Conversion of th to t or d, so called dentalization''.

director Ed D. Wood, Jr.
viewed: 09/08/2014
Gloriously recreated “making of” scenes of Bride of the Monster featured in Tim Burton’s Ed Wood (1994) demonstrate the heartfelt affection that Burton and team had for Wood and this picture in particular. Ed D. Wood, Jr. has gone down as the “worst director of all time” and fair enough. At least his bad movies are incredibly fun and utterly enjoyable.
Bride of the Monster really might be his real masterpiece. It’s a sight better than Plan 9 from Outer Space (1959), though it features some classic silliness, almost non sequitur dialog, cardboard performances, and a weirdly intercut octopus, it does feature Bela Lugosi in his final speaking role, delivering a badly-written but impassioned performance that somehow sums up this whole strange affair. The film is bad but it was made badly with love.
What’s the movie about? There’s a mad doctor (Lugosi) with a monster in a swamp (the octopus) plus the ever-present Tor Johnson and the brutal henchman. And something about a race of atomic supermen.
Oh, the 1950’s, they really did offer some great stuff.
I have to file this one under my growing list of movies that are indeed bad but that I’ve found myself enjoying more than hating, like Robot Monster (1953) and The Horror of Party Beach (1964). And another truly great movie poster. |

Gaudiya Nritya, from Manipur and West Bengal
Bharatnatyam
Bharatnatyam is a classical Indian dance form that originates from that originates in the temples of Tamil Nadu. The dance form is a reconstruction os Sadir, the art of temple dancers devadasis. Lord Shiva as Nataraja is considered the God of this dance form. Today, it is one of the most popular and widely performed dance form practiced by male and female dancers all over the world. The original name of Bharatnatyam was Sadir, Chinnamelan and Dasi Attam. A possible origin of the Bharatnatyam is that it comes after Bharata Muni, the author of Natya Shastra. Another popular etymology (explanation of the name) holds "Bhavan" means expression, "ragam" means melody and "Talam" means rhythm, finally, "Natyam" means dance, so the dance which has Bhavan, Ragam and Talam is called Bharatnatyam.
Aspects of Bhratnatyam
Bharatnatyam is a solo dance with two aspects Lasya, the graceful and feminine aspects associated with Goddess Parvati and Tandava , the masculine and rigorous aspects associated with Lord Shiva.
Training of Bharatnatyam
The Bharatnatyam training has been given its present shape by the Tanjore brothers. It begins with the practice of Adavus and then the students are taught the Margam from Pushpanjli, Kautvam, Alarippu, Jatiswaram, Sabdam, Varnam, Padams, Tilina. After many years of training, a student can perform an "arangetram", the first solo performance by a student. Bharatnatyam compositions are based on Carnatic Music system of Ragams and talams. It features graceful and assertive movements that are performed imaginary lines and geometrical patterns
Kathak
Kathak is a dance form that originates from Uttar Pradesh, North India. It is said that: "Katha kahe so kathak," which means that 'He who tells a story is a Kathak'. The Kathak or professional story-teller had a thorough knowledge of the epics and mythology, village legends and local beliefs. It is said that the kathak was so adept at this art that he often kept a whole village absorbed while he sat entertaining them.
Dancing style of Kathak
Kathak is characterised bt graceful movements, subtle expressions and sophisticated use of rhythm. Technical virtuosity and flamboyance is complimented by subtlety in the depiction of moods and emotions. Pure dance is the predominant feature of Kathak. In Kathak, the dancer addresses directly to the audience. The knees are not flexed outwards or forwards as in the other classical dance form of India. The feet, with ghungroos around the ankles, beat out a whole range of rhythmic sounds. Skill in rendering intricate beats is fundamental to the style.
History of Kathak
Although, Kathak was an established tradition as a medium of worship during the Vaishnava age, it started being performed in courts with the coming of the Mughals. The dancer moved from thr temple courtyards to the palace durbar and this brought changes on the presentation as we know it today. Kathak saw a great period of glory in the 19th century during the reign of Wajid Ali Shah, the last nawab of Awadh. It was under his patronage that the Lucknow gharana was established. The two other important gharanas in Kathak are the Jaipur gharana and the Banaras gharana.

In June at the NYU Investment Conference, Sheraton revealed plans to transform the design of its hotels while showcasing its vision for the hotels’ shared spaces. As Marriott’s third largest brand, designing public spaces that are relevant to communities around the world is a challenge, but also an opportunity, says Lionel Sussman, vice president of experience design at Marriott. Sussman tells LODGING that the brand is capitalizing on its large, global portfolio to tap into the concept of the ‘World’s Gathering Place’ and incorporate local touches across its co-working spaces.
What is the vision for the transformed brand and how does it differ from the previous design and guest experience?
The vision for Sheraton and the transformation that we’re going after is really around this opportunity to create a very differentiated experience not only for our guests, but also the communities in which Sheraton hotels exist. This is a brand that has an incredible heritage and a portfolio that really allows us to be one of the few brands in the world that can actually claim a place in this concept that we’re calling the ‘World’s Gathering Place.’ The idea is to bring back the essence of what Sheraton used to be and become the center of each of the hotel’s communities.
What aspects of the legacy brand are you embracing in the new design?
Sheraton is a large brand with a global presence—it’s currently in 72 countries and will be in about 90 in the next couple years—so that idea of being a global brand is definitely something that influences how we approach our strategy. This is a brand that was the first to enter markets like China, Eastern Europe, and Russia, and having a global mindset and a place where people can connect with others—both within the Sheraton community but as well as locally—is definitely what the heritage of Sheraton used to be and what we are focused on creating.
How do you create spaces for a global brand that are relevant in every property?
We decided to lean into this idea of productivity and co-working. This is a new strategy for Sheraton and is really aimed at providing both service and spaces that are uniquely designed to allow collaboration, productivity, and social gatherings. That’s how we’re thinking about the physical space—we’ll use color, pattern, texture, and all our design tricks like lighting and artwork to create a gallery space that is good for work, play, or dining and is influenced by the local culture. We want to make sure that each hotel is unique in the way they pay homage to the community where they live.
With such a large portfolio, how are you working with owners to make sure that each property has that local touch?
We have a pretty big challenge ahead of ourselves, because this is a brand that is currently developing new hotels. We have a lot of legacy hotels open today and we have a very serious commitment from our ownership community—about 60 percent of the portfolio committed to undergo a renovation by the year 2020, with a nice percentage of it already underway. As a company, we look at our franchisees as our partners and we are working together and giving them all the tools that they need to ensure success.
How will the brand’s transformation benefit owners?
We went through a similar process of redefining our Marriott brand about six years ago and we are now about 60 percent done. We’ve seen very clearly what the returns are for owners. There are two components to it: the return on investment and a financial benefit. Immediately after renovations, we see a lift in rates, a lift in guest satisfaction scores, as well as many other metrics. But also, we see an impact on the design community and on social media. We see how our renovated hotels become iconic in many of their cities, and they become relevant. These are very old brands that a lot of people associate with their parents or their grandparents, and now they’re relevant to the millennial consumer. That’s really our goal.
A lot of hotel brands are talking about public areas and putting more emphasis on creating spaces where guests can work, play, and relax. What is behind this trend?
The idea of co-working is really tied to how the next generation prefers to work. With a much more entrepreneurial spirit and with the addition of the great technology we have today, it’s just a natural progression of what the work environment is and will be in the future. I believe that it’s going to continue to evolve even more when you start adding things like self-driving cars and many other technology-related tools that would allow people to work very differently in the future.
We feel that some of the co-working companies and spaces that have been popping up all over the place over the last five years—people used to do that in our hotels and we have the space for people to gather and work. Having said that, we don’t necessarily want to be seen as just a co-working space. We are, first and foremost, a hotel, but we want to have all the right spaces and the right services to ensure that if our guest want to have that same experience but have it in our hotel—have access to those co-working spaces, that technology, the right food and beverage strategy, and the right service experience.
As the brand transformation starts to fall into place, what are you most excited about?
We did this temporary pop-up in New York a few months ago and it was the first time we were able to visualize what this whole reimage would feel and look like, and what struck me the most was this concept of being very holistic. We’re not just looking at doing a great space, we’re not just looking at doing a new food and beverage menu, and we’re not just looking at creating an app to order services—we’re really looking at this in a very holistic way.
It all comes together and it’s a true testament to the idea of something we as a company are very focused on—not just doing interior design, but really doing experiential design. |
Marilyn Monroe (born Norma Jeane Mortenson; June 1, 1926 - August 4, 1962) was an American actress, writer, model, singer and filmmaker. Between 1946 and 1962, she made 44 movies. Famous for playing comic "blonde bombshell" characters, she became one of the most popular sex symbols of the 1950s and was emblematic of the era's attitudes towards sexuality. Although she was a top-billed actress for only a decade, her films grossed $200 million by the time of her unexpected death in 1962.
Biography
Marilyn Monroe was born as Norma Jeane Mortenson or Norma Jeane Baker, on June 1, 1926 at LAC+USC Medical Center in Los Angeles, California, United States. When she was seven years old, her mother, Gladys (Monroe) Baker Mortenson, was hospitalized after being diagnosed as a paranoid schizophrenic, a severe mental condition. Norma was left in a series of foster homes and the Los Angeles Orphans' Home Society. The constant move from one foster home to another resulted in Norma's "sketchy" educational background.
After Norma's sixteenth birthday, her foster parents had to move from California. To avoid an orphanage or a new foster home, Norma chose to get married. On June 19, 1942, Norma married James Dougherty, but the marriage would all but end when he joined the U.S. Merchant Marines in 1943. Though her difficult childhood and early failed marriage would make Norma Jean a strong and resilient woman, these experiences would also add to her insecurities and flaws--things that would ultimately shape her into a great tragic figure of the twentieth century.
Movies
Marilyn Monroe became famous, starring in a number of hit movies during the 1950s and early 1960s. She also became famous for modeling for photographers and singing in her musical movies. One time, she sang "Happy Birthday" to President John F. Kennedy. It turned out to be one of her last appearances.
Personal life
Marriages
The 16-year-old Norma Jeane married James Dougherty on June 19, 1942. After the wedding, he joined the navy. At this time, Norma met an army photographer, David Conover. She began a career as a model. She changed her name to Marilyn Monroe. She and Dougherty divorced on September 13, 1946.
Monroe married the baseball star Joe DiMaggio on January 14, 1954. The marriage lasted for nine months. She had met DiMaggio on a blind date, during the filming of the movie Monkey Business in 1952. The marriage was closely followed by the public. DiMaggio retired from baseball, and Marilyn became very famous. DiMaggio was sad that his career as a baseball star was ending, and was jealous of Marilyn for being admired. He spent most of his time watching television and Monroe found it boring. They separated on October 31, 1954. From 1961, they became friends again. DiMaggio said that he gave Marilyn a rose every week for 20 years.
Marilyn married Arthur Miller on June 29, 1956. She converted to Judaism. She had met him during the filming of As Young As You Feel in 1951. She was so happy with him and they tried to have children together. Marilyn had three miscarriages, because of her endometriosis. Miller wrote the screenplay for the movie The Misfits. The filming caused many problems between Marilyn and Arthur and they separated on January 20, 1961.
Death
She died early from an overdose of barbiturates on August 4, 1962 in Brentwood, Los Angeles, California, U.S. at 36 years old.

solar industry gained a lot in 2013, as last year was the best year ever for solar installations. The top renewable energy had often been wind but now solar has gained more traction due new financing offers, more efficient collectors. It’s great to see more and more solar and wind installations each year, which reduces long term pollution and reduces our reliance on the middle east.

Business Impact
Q&A: Bill Gates
Microsoft’s cofounder vows to change the “supply side” for breakthrough energy technologies by investing billions of his and his friends’ dollars.
Click on the italicized phrases for more context..”
By “miracles” Gates doesn’t mean unanticipated gifts that appear undeserved from nowhere but, rather, technological breakthroughs “that are the result of research and development and the human capacity to innovate,” such as the personal computer, the Internet, and the polio vaccine2. He called upon students to “work extra hard in your math and sciences,” because the world needs “crazy-sounding ideas to solve our energy challenge.”
Gates is animated by an equation he claims to have come up with (although it resembles another equation, called the Kaya Identity3, well known to climate scientists) that considers total carbon dioxide emissions as the product of the factors P (population), S (services consumed per person), E (the energy used to supply those services), and C (the amount of carbon emitted per unit of energy)..
You sometimes say that in the future the world will need more—not less—energy, in part to raise living standards in many parts of the world. That’s really the key to the challenge, no? We have to break the close connection between economic growth and carbon emissions in a time of climate change.
That’s right..
When must C be zero?
If you allow poor countries and the land-use sector, including livestock, to continue to have non-zero emissions, then rich countries need to be net zero by 2050, if you really want just two degrees of warming.
If poor countries and agriculture emit significant carbon for the foreseeable future, how can the entire globe achieve net-zero emissions by the end of the century?
Well, there are scenarios that show rich countries having negative carbon dioxide emissions4 in the years beyond 2050.
You’ve noted that the energy industry spends 0.23 percent of revenues on research and development, compared to 20 percent for pharma and 15 percent for IT, and you blame the long lag between invention and impact in energy on those paltry investments. Is there any way to change that?
You can look at history and ask yourself, “Who do you think were the greatest energy innovators of all time?” I think Charles Algernon Parsons5 [the inventor of the steam turbine] was really incredible. I think Rudolf Diesel6 [the inventor of the diesel engine] was also incredible. Go and look at how much money they or the company they worked for made. Diesel committed suicide because he thought he was going bankrupt. Parsons made basically nothing. During the first 20 years after you invent a new energy technology, as [Vaclav] Smil7 likes to remind us, the deployment that takes place, with very, very few exceptions, is quite modest. So the incentive for the inventor is most reduced where the adoption cycles are greater than 20 years. We don’t have a similar situation in IT. We don’t have that even in health care, although they sometimes complain that the 20 years don’t give them enough time.
A more than 20-year investment cycle seems an awfully long time. Therefore, does energy need a model for innovation different from those that have driven other technologies?
For a lot of energy innovations, you’ve got to give government credit. With nuclear energy, all the key research was done either by the government or by government funding. With fossil fuels, there was clearly some spillover effect from the digital revolution to analyze geological data, but it was government investing that helped to get to this incredibly precise horizontal drilling capability. So basic R&D spending has been the thing that has driven most of the breakthroughs. We do need private-sector risk-takers to go out and scale the stuff up, which is why we paired the idea that 20 leading countries must double their energy R&D over the next five years with a group of investors [the Breakthrough Energy Coalition] that will take on funding high-risk, breakthrough companies.
When we spoke about energy in 2010, you reminded me that the total U.S. government investment in energy R&D was around $5 billion, about 10 percent of the money it spends on defense-related research. That’s not changed much in the last six years. If the government did double its investment in energy R&D, where would you want that money to be spent—on more fundamental research or on supporting the scaling up of new technologies?
No, I’d spend it all on fundamental research. There’s some really exciting materials science problems which if you solved them would have benefits far beyond the energy sector, but where you could justify the increased investment just by what it would do to improve energy innovation.
For instance, the wind guys need really strong materials, and they need really good magnets. And if we can do solar chemical8, and somebody figures out how to take the production of photons to hydrocarbons and scale that up by a factor of a hundred so that it becomes economic, that’s pretty miraculous, because you’re creating a liquid hydrocarbon that a lot of our infrastructure, including transport, knows how to deal with today. You’d not be switching out everything except the actually primary generation piece.
Now, I don’t have a pure mapping of how much you spend on R&D to how quickly you get the breakthrough. As with cancer research, there’s a lot of uncertainty as to what scientific possibilities are out there. We don’t have a good equation. You know, it’s possible there’s some guy in a laboratory today who’s inventing something miraculous, but because of climate change and the value of having cheaper energy, we shouldn’t just sit around and hope for his miracle; we should tilt the odds in our favor by doubling the R&D budget.
It’s striking that all of your examples have to do with chemistry and materials science. That’s not a coincidence, is it?
No. Take TerraPower9, the nuclear fission company that I’m very involved with [along with former Microsoft chief technology officer Nathan Myhrvold]: all our biggest challenges have been in materials science. We have very high neutron bombardment of our steel plating, and the toughest engineering problem to solve has been proving that over long periods of time we don’t have degradation. But the ability to model materials comes up in almost all energy breakthroughs.
How do you respond to the argument that commercializing inventions like solar paint10 would take far too long to meet the time line of net-zero carbon emissions by 2050? How do you answer the thesis that to avert the worst impacts of climate change, we must deploy the clean technologies we have, while simultaneously investing in more fundamental breakthroughs as well?
For countries that are quite wealthy, like Europe and the United States, we could bear to have energy costs go up even a factor of two in deploying what we have today. It would be a huge political trade-off, and I don’t know if countries would choose to do it, but you wouldn’t be impoverishing anybody.
But look at a country like India, which is paradigmatic and numerically very significant in terms of its expected additions to hydrocarbon use over the next 30 years. If you give Indians the dilemma of electrifying their country using coal or meeting a greenhouse-gas constraint that would dramatically reduce how much electrification gets done, you give them a very tough trade-off. They will ask, “Shouldn’t we save millions of lives? Shouldn’t we give women electric stoves instead of burning wood? Shouldn’t we avoid the environmental degradation all that wood gathering involves, and all the time it demands?” I can’t predict, but I imagine they’ll lean toward electrifying the country, which will mean a global-scale experiment with high carbon dioxide.
So if it wasn’t for technological innovation, I wouldn’t be very optimistic about reducing greenhouse-gas emissions. But if we have the innovations, then we can say to India, “You can achieve two goals: you can be a great global citizen by not emitting into the atmosphere as much carbon dioxide per person as the rich nations emitted to fuel their growth, and you can electrify your country.”
Won’t progress also require smart policies, including some kind of price on carbon? Wouldn’t we need a carbon tax to help create a business rationale for investing more in clean technologies?
The innovations will need to be encouraged on the supply side and demand side. The supply side is about funding basic government research, and then creating startup companies with that research.
On the demand side, there are arguments to be had about how much we ought to do and what the structure should look like, but if you look at the rich countries as a whole, they have done a lot. [In the United States] there have been things like the PTC [renewable-energy Production Tax Credit], the ITC [Investment Tax Credit], or the renewable portfolio standards11. Now, the policies may have been too specific to particular technologies, and maybe they should be done with a more general mechanism, but overall, if you look at the relative investment in the demand side for innovation versus how much these countries have put into the supply side, it’s a stunning picture. On the demand side, rich nations have invested literally hundreds of billions, but on the supply side, if you put aside China, nobody’s really substantially increased their energy R&D12 budget over these last 15 years.
The answer to your question is: yes, we need lots of work on the demand side. But when you click on the supply side and see what we’ve done you’d be very disappointed, even though, in terms of billions of dollars needed, it’s not nearly as much. It’s surprising how little’s been done.
I understand you prefer to discuss the supply side. But do you have policy preferences about how to impose a price on carbon? Do you favor a clean, transparent tax? Or would you like some kind of cap and trade? Perhaps, most plausibly, a mixture of smart policies? Or do you not care?
Some countries will do a pure carbon tax13, and there’s a certain beauty to doing it that way, but the consensus that I think people will reach here in the U.S. will be to focus more on supply side.
Then let’s talk about the supply side! What is the Breakthrough Energy Coalition, and how will you decide where to invest?
Last November, 26 wealthy individuals and myself [as well as institutions, such as the University of California] committed to invest in breakthrough energy companies. There are two ways that the coalition will make those investments. First, we’ll create a special fund called Breakthrough Energy Partners that the individuals in that group will invest in, although sometimes these individuals will invest directly in companies. Second, we’ll get another set of institutional investors, including university endowments, foundation endowments, and corporation funds, and try to get about an equal amount of money as we’re getting from individuals for a fund for institutions, about two billion dollars.
By this summer, we’ll have some of the key people and will have pulled together the investment documents, and then we’ll be able to go to not only individuals who are willing to commit based on knowing me and trusting this thing would be structured well, but also the institutions.
The coalition launched with a remarkable group of rich individuals. But I didn’t see many names from the energy industry. Don’t you need the expertise of the energy industry, as well as its financial resources?
We haven’t been out soliciting. But yes, if we can get people who are in today’s energy market, either equipment or utilities, it would be great to have them as well. Our basic goal is that if we can raise a couple billion, we can back a lot of great companies and back them much further than a typical venture fund would choose to do.
You’ve said you were willing to invest up to one billion dollars of your own money over the next five years. Why not invest more?
I wish just writing a bigger check was the solution. I’ll be fascinated as we get this fund together how quickly we’ll be able to invest. If we can effectively invest the first couple of billion dollars, then absolutely—not only will I put more money in, but I’ll call up the institutions and individuals and say, “Hallelujah, they found enough companies that now we are financially limited; we want more money.”
Clean tech so far is somewhat out of favor [for investment] because people were unrealistic about how quickly some of these advances could be created. The difficulty of new adoption, of reliability, of scaling things up—all those things—is very, very daunting. So we need to get people excited about these types of investments again, but also really have them understand that the IT world created a model in terms of time frame, patience, and even the amount of capital required that doesn’t exist in the energy sector in most cases.
Have you funded carbon capture?
I’m an investor in David Keith’s company, called Carbon Engineering14, a free-air capture technology. They’re building a plant. It will have costs on the order of a hundred dollars or more per ton of carbon dioxide that’s pulled out with free-air capture, but having built the first plant, they’ll see opportunities to bring that down.
How is TerraPower progressing? When will there be a commercial reactor, and why was China the only possibility for a test facility?
They’re not the only possibility.. It’s likely China is where TerraPower’s pilot plant will be built15. In the best case, if that plant gets done by 2024, then sometime in the 2030s you’d have a design that you’d hope all new nuclear builds would adopt, because the economics, safety, waste, and all the key parameters are dramatically improved.
Have you made any mistakes in your energy investments that you’d care to talk about?
I’m in five battery companies, and five out of five are having a tough time. For instance, Don Sadoway’s company, Ambri16, is great, but they’re having a real challenge in terms of getting the seals of their sodium batteries to work, and getting the economics of their batteries so that storage people would find them attractive. I don’t regret having invested, but all the battery things I’m in are finding both the size of the market and proving the technology more difficult than they expected. They’re still in business, but it’s proving to be quite daunting. When people think about energy solutions, you can’t assume there will be a storage miracle. It’s still possible there will be, but we need to invest in lots of paths that don’t demand storage.
If there’s no storage technology that scales, how will solar and wind ever meaningfully contribute to electricity generation?
If you said to me, “There will be no storage miracle”—nothing like solar chemical or anything like that—then I think the likely system for a rich country looks like a gigantic high-voltage DC grid with solar and wind, and natural-gas peakers with some very high degree of carbon capture and sequestration [CCS].
If you had a supergrid that covered all of North America, and you looked at weather models and understood wind and sun patterns, and rationally used all of your solar and wind to maximize diversity, then with a magic, continent-wide grid, with huge capacity that is doable with the right government approvals, you’d end up probably being able to cover about 80 percent of energy needs. For the remaining 20 percent, you could, in the worst case, use natural-gas peakers and CCS. It’s a little bit easier to do CCS in a natural-gas plant than it is in a coal plant, and it’s easier to do it for 20 percent of the energy than it is for all of the energy.
The grid’s there, and it’s the most likely solution that’s straightforward. Doing a big high-voltage DC grid is quite economic. It’s only magic in the sense that the sovereign has to clear the right-of-ways and create the right economic incentives. It’s not a technology miracle; it’s a policy miracle.
Can the U.S., which committed to reducing its emissions by more than 25 percent by 2025, and other countries meet their obligations under the Paris agreement?
Even though the Paris thing was a big step forward, there is so much work to be done in each country. I think people can be skeptical about how many countries will meet their commitments and, even if those commitments are met, how they will be met. Take, for example, the U.S. commitment: a lot of the way the U.S. is meeting its commitments is by shifting the relative energy mix toward natural gas.
If we didn’t have innovation, if you said “Hey, science is frozen, we just have today’s technology,” I would be quite pessimistic about the world [avoiding] even ... a three-degree scenario. The reason I’m optimistic about climate change is because of the potential for innovations where C equals zero. |

Pietro Paolo Giovanni Ernesto Baracchi (1851-1926) was an Italian astronomer. He moved to Australia in the 1870s and worked at the Melbourne Observatory. In 1910 the Australian government asked him to find a suitable place for an observatory in the new Australian Capital Territory. Barrachi set up a small observatory on Mount Stromlo in May 1911. This was the first government building in Canberra and was the beginning of the Mount Stromlo Observatory. The observatory had a 9-inch (23 cm) telescope, donated by Ballarat gold miner, James Oddie. |

Huber Matos Benitez (26 November 1918 - 27 February 2014) was a Cuban dissident activist and writer from Yara, Granma Province.
He was best known as a revolutionary who assisted Fidel Castro, Che Guevara and other members of the 26th of July Movement (M-26-7) in removing the dictatorship of Fulgencio Batista as part of the Cuban Revolution. He was against Batista since the general's effective coup in 1952, which he called unconstitutional, but became more critical of the movement's shift towards Marxist principles, and closing ties with leaders of the Communist Party of Cuba (PCC). He was convicted of "treason and sedition" by the new Castro regime. He would spend 20 years in prison (1959-1979) before being released in 1979.
After his release, he spent his time between Miami, Florida, United States and Costa Rica. He was politically active in speaking out against the Cuban government.
Matos died from a heart attack on 27 February 2014 in Miami, Florida. He was aged 95. |

TATE GALLERY AND THE NATIONAL TRUST (LORD EGREMONT COLLECTION) PETWORTH HOUSE
Canvas, 35 3/4 × 48 (91 × 122)
Signed ‘I M W Turner RA ISLEWORTH’ lower right
Coll. Bought from Turner by the third Earl of Egremont; by descent to the third Lord Leconfield, who in 1947 conveyed Petworth to the National Trust; in 1957 the contents of the State Rooms were accepted by the Treasury in part payment of death duties.
Exh. S.B.A. 1834 (15 lent by Lord Egremont); Tate Gallery 1951 (1); Brussels 1973 (6); R.A. 1974–5 (80); Paris 1983–4 (16, repr.).
Lit. Petworth Inventories 1837, 1856 (North gallery); Waagen 1854, iii, p. 39; Thornbury 1877, p. 199(?); Armstrong 1902, p. 237, where it is dated c. 1808; Collins Baker 1920, p. 123 no. 4; Finberg 1961, pp. 192, 196, 350, 475 no. 181, 199 no. 454; Rothenstein and Butlin 1964, p. 19, pl. 26; Lindsay 1966, p. 107; Herrmann 1975, pp. 15, 228, pl. 45; Joll 1977, pp. 175–6; Ziff 1980, p. 169.
There is a watercolour study for this picture on p. 29 verso of the ‘Studies for Pictures; Isleworth’ sketchbook (XC; repr. by Herrmann pl. 46 and in colour by Wilkinson, 1974, p. 108). A slight pencil sketch on p. 2 of the ‘Windsor and Eton’ sketchbook (XCVII) is also possibly connected.
There is also a drawing CXVIII-e, catalogued by Finberg simply as ‘Sketch for Liber Studiorum subject’, which, despite one or two minor architectural peculiarities, seems certainly to depict Windsor, and the group of figures and sheep in the foreground on the right are closely connected with the oil. In the drawing a flagstaff is visible on the turret in the centre and the Round Tower can be clearly seen whereas in the picture it is obscured by trees.
The questions of when the picture was painted and when it was acquired by Lord Egremont are still unresolved but Finberg's suggestion that this picture was exhibited at Turner's gallery in 1813 is unsupported by any evidence. Finberg's theory rested on his belief that the ‘Studies for Pictures; Isleworth’ sketchbook, containing the watercolour study for the oil, dates from 1811–12. On the inside cover of the book is written:
J.M.W. Turner
Sion Ferry House
Isleworth.
and Finberg suggests that Turner moved there when he left Hammersmith in 1811 while he was waiting for Solus Lodge, Twickenham, to be got ready. While it is true that this sketchbook contains drawings connected with pictures such as Mercury and Herse (No. 114, R.A. 1811) and Dido and Æneas
(No. 129, R.A. 1814), it also has details of bank notes in use in 1804, which implies that the sketchbook, like many others, was in use over a number of years.
Rothenstein and Butlin date this picture c. 1805 and see in it a sign of Turner's early interest in a more classical form of composition, based ‘mainly on forms lying parallel to the picture surface’, and they cite a number of points of similarity with The Garden of the Hesperides (No. 57, exh. 1806). There is also an echo of Gaspard Poussin and another close parallel in Turner's own work is to be found in the Narcissus and Echo of 1804 (No. 53 [T03869]), also at Petworth. On stylistic grounds, therefore, there seems to be a strong case for accepting a date of c. 1805.
The dating proposed by Rothenstein and Butlin has received strong support from Patrick Youngblood's discovery that Turner was first rated for Sion Ferry House on 23 May 1805, thus six months earlier than his letter, written from the house, to Colt Hoare which has hitherto been the first proof of his occupancy (Youngblood 1982, p. 34 n.9).
Therefore there seems no reason why the most obvious explanation should not be correct: that Turner painted, signed and sold the picture all in about 1805 or 1806. The unusual form of signature implies that Turner was living at Isleworth when he signed it at the time that Lord Egremont bought the picture. There is also a possibility that Turner exhibited it at his own gallery in 1805 or 1806. Certainly the evidence for a dating at about this time now seems overwhelming.

Peterhouse is one of the colleges of the University of Cambridge, England. It was created in 1284 and is the oldest college. It is also one of the smallest ones, with less than 400 total students.
In 1280, Hugo de Balsham, the person who created the college, was first allowed to keep some students following the same rules of Merton College, Oxford. At first, they stayed where St John's College is now. Four years later, they bought some land near the Church of St Peter in Trumpington Street, where Peterhouse is still found now. Over the years, Peterhouse has been centre of many important events. It was here that many discussions about religion and the Protestant Reformation took place. Peterhouse was also the second building in England to get electricity, after the Palace of Westminster.
Some very important people have studied here. Five of them have won Nobel Prizes:
Max Perutz and John Kendrew - Chemistry (1962) for finding out the first atomic structures of proteins using X-ray crystallography.
Sir Aaron Klug - Chemistry (1982) for developing crystallographic electron microscopy.
Archer Martin - Chemistry (1952) for inventing partition chromatography.

By far the greater number of wasps (over 500,000 species in the superfamily Chalcidoidea alone) are a special type of parasite. They are parasitoids which lay their eggs in or on the bodies of other insect species (usually the larvae such as caterpillars).
Different species specialise in hosts from different insect orders, most often Lepidoptera, though some select beetles, flies, or bugs; the spider wasps (Pompilidae) exclusively attack spiders.
Almost every insect pest species has at least one wasp species that preys upon it or parasitizes it. This makes wasps critically important in the natural control of pest numbers (biocontrol). Parasitic wasps are increasingly used in agricultural pest control as they themselves do little or no damage to crops. Farmers buy these parasitic wasps for insect control in their fields.
With most species, the adult parasitic wasps themselves do not get any nutrients from their prey. Much like bees, butterflies, and moths, those which do feed as adults usually get all of their nutrition from nectar.
Parasitic wasps are extremely varied in their habits. Many lay their eggs in inert stages of their host (egg or pupa). If the prey is a caterpillar, they paralyze it by injecting it with venom through their ovipositor. Then they insert one or more eggs into the host or deposit them upon the host externally. The host remains alive until the parasitoid larvae are mature, dying later when the parasitoids pupate, or when they emerge as adults. Basically, the hosts are eaten alive.
Ichneumons
The Ichneumonoidea is a superfamily of wasp parasitoids. It has two main families:
Ichneumonidae: this is by far the largest family. It is a very specific parasite, each species preying on only one or two prey species.
Braconidae: these are more all-round parasites which have a wide range of hosts they can parasitise.
Polydnavirus (PDV)
Polydnaviruses are a unique group of insect viruses that have a mutualistic relationship with parasitic wasps.
The virus protects the parasitic larva inside the host by weakening the host's immune system. It also alters the cells of the host in ways which help the parasite. The polydnavirus, like all viruses, need a host to replicate itself. This it does in the oviducts of the female wasp.
The relationship between these viruses and the wasp is obligatory: all individuals are 'infected' with the viruses; the virus has been added to the wasp's genome.
The two main genera of polydnaviruses are the Ichnoviruses (IV) and the Bracoviruses (BV). The ichnoviruses occur in ichneumonid wasp species and bracoviruses in braconid wasps.
Host defence
The victims of parasitoids do have defences they can use. Many try to hide from the wasps. The egg shells and cuticles of the prey are thickened to prevent the wasp from penetrating them. When the wasp arrives, prey may drop off the plant they are on, or twist and thrash to dislodge the female. Some regurgitate onto the wasp to tangle it up. The wriggling can sometimes help by causing the wasp to miss laying the egg on the host and instead place it nearby. Wriggling of pupae can cause the wasp to lose its grip on the smooth hard pupa or get trapped in the silk strands. Some caterpillars bite wasps that approach it. Some secrete poisonous compounds that kill or drive away the parasitoid. Ants that are in a symbiotic relationship with caterpillars, aphids or scale insects defend them from attack by wasps.
Even parasitoid wasps are vulnerable to hyperparasitoid wasps. Some parasitoid wasps change the behaviour of the infected host to build a silk web around the pupa of the wasps after they emerge from its body to protect them from hyperparasitoids.
In endoparasitoids, host immune cells can encapsulate the eggs and larvae of parasitoid wasps. In aphids, a secondary endosymbiont, Buchnera aphidicola carries a latent phage. This phage makes the aphid relatively immune to their parasitoid wasps by killing many of the eggs. However, wasps counter this by laying more eggs in aphids that have the endosymbiont so that at least one of them can hatch and parasitize the aphid.
Certain caterpillars eat plants that are toxic to both themselves and the parasite to cure themselves. Drosophila melanogaster larvae also self-medicate with ethanol to treat parasitism. D. melanogaster females lay their eggs in food containing toxic amounts of alcohol if they detect parasitoid wasps nearby. Despite the alcohol slowing the growth of the flies, it protects them from the wasps.
Evolution
Parasitoidism evolved only once in the Hymenoptera, during the Permian. It lead to a single clade, the Apocrita. Almost all parasitoid wasps are descended from this clade.
The parasitic lifestyle has been lost several times, including among the ants, bees, and yellowjacket wasps. As a result, the order Hymenoptera has many families of parasitoids intermixed with non-parasitoid groups. The Hymenoptera, Apocrita, and Aculeata are all clades, and each has both parasitic and non-parasitic species. The parasitoid wasps do not form a clade on their own.
The parasitoid wasps include some very large groups. Some estimates suggest the Chalcidoidea has 500,000 species, the Ichneumonidae 100,000 species, and the Braconidae up to 50,000 species.
Host insects have evolved a range of defences against parasitoid wasps, including hiding, wriggling, and camouflage markings.
A big increase of species in the Hymenoptera occurred soon after the evolution of parasitoidy in the order. The parasitoidy may have been a main cause of it. The evolution of a 'wasp waist' (a constriction in the abdomen) helped the Apocrita because it increased manoeuverability of the ovipositor (the organ used to lay eggs). |

The earthquake-shattered main road linking Picton and Christchurch will "definitely" be closed for at least the next six months, Transport Minister Simon Bridges says.
The minister took a guided helicopter tour of State Highway 1 from Kaikoura to Cheviot in North Canterbury today.
Large landslides have washed across the road and swept away railway lines at several stages across the picturesque coastal route.
Contractors are using heavy machinery to clear the rubble and debris, while helicopters with monsoon buckets sluicing gouged-open hillsides. Cracks and crevasses in the road are being filled with shingle and dirt as a stop-gap measure.
While aftershocks remain a major concern, the possibility of heavy rainfall is also a huge concern to the ongoing repair work.
"We've got several major slips - all the size of the Manawatu Gorge slip [of 2011] or more - and plus we're dealing with seismic activity here while trying to put the road back together, so we're talking many months," Bridges told the Herald.
"I think on the northern side, we're definitely talking more than six months. I think there's a need for some realism around that, and that's even working very fast on things."
He added: "People want answers and they want them to be accurate."
The Transport Minister was, however, adamant that the road would eventually reopen, albeit with the possibility of some route changes.
Bridges hopes that the slips south of Kaikoura are not as severe as north of the tourist town.
Beach settlements south of Kaikoura, including Oaro and Goose Bay, are already getting services delivered by road through the Hundalee Hills.
Bridges hopes that more access to Kaikoura from the south will be opened up soon.
However, the immediate priority is getting the Inland Rd State Highway 70 from Waiau to Kaikoura opened up.
Army aid convoys have been making two trips along the route for several days now. However, it's still closed to all other traffic.
Bridges, along with Hurunui District Mayor Winton Dalley, this morning flew over the Inland Rd, now being called the Kaikoura Emergency Access Rd by Civil Defence.
Contractors are making headway through the various slips and landslides.
A cordon just north of Waiau was eased this afternoon to allow fed-up locals easier access to their rural properties and to give them more ease of movement.
A massive landslide at Rotherham is being quickly cleared and Dalley hopes the direct road to Waiau will be open within days.
The worst area on the Inland Rd now lies just north of Mt Lyford.
Contractors are working around the clock to open the route to get urgent supplies to Kaikoura, and allow better access for residents.
"To see that it's being worked on and there is progress is good," Bridges said.
After the badly-damaged stretch north of Waiau and Lyford, where along with slips, the road was cracked and sheared open in the violent magnitude-7.8 tremor, there are long stretches were, as Bridges says, that "you wouldn't have a sense that there's been earthquakes".
Bridges was also taken over State Highway 7 which has seen traffic increase at least four-fold since last Monday's natural disaster.
Large trucks including several milk tankers were travelling the road past the Hanmer Springs turn-off today.
Traffic was heavy and Dalley feared what it will look like when summer kicks in and holidaymakers and more tourists take to the popular road.
But for Bridges, the aerial survey was useful in helping him consider the future decisions will be have to be made by Cabinet, the Ministry of Transport, NZTA, and KiwiRail.
"There's nothing like actually coming and seeing it with your own eyes," he said.
Meeting locals in Amberley and Cheviot, as well as contractors as the Waiau cordon, helped give him a "sense of the frustration" that they're experiencing with the closures and cordons. |

- 100% mulberry silk
- French seamed
- Stitch detail at chest (for best results iron from damp after washing)
- Shorts have elastic waist at back with drawstring to the front for a more flattering look
Caring for your Silk
- Silk can be dry cleaned
- Machine wash on delicate cycle with mild detergent
- Hand wash using lukewarm water and mild detergent. Do not soak or wring
- For best results iron from damp, on reverse, using low setting. We know that ironing can be a hassle but for an investment such as silk, it really is worth it!
- Wash like colors together
- Silk dries very quickly. Hang to dry, out of direct sunlight
- Tumble dry not recommended (or needed as silk dries so quickly)
- Like all natural fabrics, there can be a slight contracting of the silk during washing which relaxes out when ironed
