Q: Converting contacts for UbuntuOne I run Ubuntu 11.10 with Thunderbird as main address book; I also have the thunderbird-couchdb package installed.
I know the U1 Contacts service status has not been working lately:

Contacts
2011-11-29 Syncing of contacts is not working for some users due to server issues. On 2011-10-10 we released an update to all clients
  to help ease the load on the server and improve reliability of
  syncing. We're now working on finishing up adding additional server
  hardware.

, but I would like to start making my local contact couchdb database (so my main address book would not be TB one anymore), so it could be synced when the service restarts in a stable manner (and I could access to it from anywhere).
Here is the screenshot of my address books in TB:

In details I would like to:

*

*Understand if and where web address books (the ones with the globe icon) are stored in my fylesystem, so I can backup them;

*understand which web address book gets synced with U1 (surely it's the one named Ubuntu One, but I cannot get any useful property from TB)

*Copy (and not move) my TB contacts (the ones with the book icon) to the couchdb database that will get synced;

*Copy (and not move) my Google contacts to the couchdb database that will get synced;

Any step-by-step idea?
Thanks in advance!

A: The Ubuntu One contacts integration in its current form is going away for P (12.04), and doesn't currently work at all well. I'd recommend removing it from the desktop completely until Q (12.10).

A: Duane from support sent me this answer which I thought would be useful for people regarding this matter:

HI,
Currently Ubuntu One mobile contact sync is being completely redesigned.
  Syncing contacts to your iphone/ipod will be available later this year. The
  desktop syncing of contacts is a similar story. In its current form it does not
  work well and is going away for Ubuntu 12.04. I would recommend not using it
  until Ubuntu 12.10.

FYI: I've asked for permission to post this here.

Q: PHP array for jQuery Remote Autocomplete I am trying to get remote autocomplete array
$items = array(
    "PR-1001"=>"Product 1",
    "PR-1002"=>"Product 2"
);

Input autocomplete suggection will be PR-1001 and PR-1002 and div will be appended with Product 0 or Product 2 depending on selection of autocomplete. I tried using following code but can't Please help me to get array as mentioned above.
$query = "SELECT * FROM products";
$results = mysql_query($query, $connection);
confirm_query($results);
$count = mysql_num_rows($results);
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($results)) {
    $codes =array("{$row['pr_code']}");
    $names =array("{$row['pr_name']}");
        $i = 0;
        $items[$i] = "\"" . $codes[$i] ."\"=>\"" . $names[$i] ."\", ";
        $items = implode(", ", $items);
        $i++;
    }

I need a php array that show print_r
Array ( [DJ-1001] => Product 1 [DJ-1002] => Product 2 )

Thank you in advance.

Here's answer
$items = array();
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($results)) {
  $items[$row['pr_code']] = $row['pr_name'];
}

Thank you friends!

A: Without having any idea what your schema looks like:
$items = array();
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($results)) {
    $items[$row['pr_code']] = $row['pr_name'];
}
echo json_encode($items);

A: in PHP you can have associative array where the key can either be an integer or a string. The value can be of any type. given that you can do straight assignement of key=>value from your query and then return the array in json (jquery-ui autocomplete it's modeled around it so just take a snippet from the official documentation to see how it works):
$items = array();
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
    $items[$row['pr_code']] = $row['pr_name'];

echo json_encode($items);

A: The data from local data, a url or a callback can come in two variants:
• An Array of Strings:
[ "Choice1", "Choice2" ]
• An Array of Objects with label and value properties:
[ { label: "Choice1", value: "value1" }, ... ]
$arr   = array();
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($results)) {
    array_push($arr,'{ label: "' . $row['pr_code'] . '", value: "' . $row['pr_name'] . '" }');
}

echo "[" . implode(',',$arr) . "]";

Andries Hendrik Potgieter (Graaff-Reinet, 19 de diciembre de 1792-Schoemansdal, 16 de diciembre de 1852) fue un líder voortrekker. Se desempeñó como el primer jefe de estado en Potchefstroom desde 1840 hasta 1845 y también como primer jefe de estado de Zoutpansberg entre 1845 y 1852.

Potgieter nació en el distrito Tarkastad de la Colonia del Cabo, el segundo hijo de Petronella Margaretha y Hermanus Potgieter. Él creció para ser un rico granjero de ovejas y luchó con las Cuarta y Quinta Guerras Fronterizas. Sin embargo, como muchos otros granjeros holandeses, franceses, y descendientes de alemanes conocidos como bóeres que vivían en la Colonia del Cabo, él decidió dejar la colonia en 1834. Retrasado por la Sexta Guerra Fronteriza, Potgieter y un grupo de Voortrekkers bajo su mando se marcharon en 1835. Otros emigrantes bajo el liderazgo de Johannes Hendrik Janse y Louis Trichardt Rensburg lo habían precedido. El líder espiritual de los voortrekkers, Sarel Arnoldus Cilliers, más tarde se unió al viaje de Potgieter.

Él y sus emigrantes se movieron al interior del luego Estado Libre de Orange, donde firmaron un tratado con el líder del Baralong, Moroka. El tratado estipuló que Potgieter protegería al Baralong contra los atacantes matabele a cambio de la tierra. La extensión de tierra cedida era del río Vet al río Vaal.

El líder matabele, Mzilikazi, amenazado por la incursión blanca en lo que él veía como su esfera de la influencia, condujo al ataque Matabele al laager  (círculo de carretas de bueyes) de Potgieter en octubre de 1836 en Vegkop, cerca de la ciudad actual de Heilbron. El ataque fue rechazado, pero los Matabele se marcharon con la mayor parte de los bueyes trekker, animales de tiro cruciales para sus carros. Los grupos de viajeros combinados de Piet Retief y Gerrit Maritz vinieron al rescate de Potgieter. Moroka también ayudó con bueyes. Su grupo se unió con Retief y Maritz en Thaba Nchu, donde formaron un gobierno voortrekker y decidieron moverse a Natal. Potgieter no estuvo a favor de esto y se quedó en el Estado Libre en 1838. Luego de que Piet Retief y su grupo fueran matados por Dingane y los grupos Voortrekker fueran atacados en Bloukrans y el Río de los Bosquimanos, Potgieter y otro líder, Pieter Lafras Uys, fueron para ayudarlos. Una fuerza militar fue reunida, pero para prevenir el cisma y la discordia, el nuevo líder Voortrekker en Natal, Maritz, diplomáticamente el anunció que tanto Uys como Potgieter debían mandar. Una lucha surgió entre el impetuoso Uys y Potgieter. Esta fuerza dividida fue atraída en una emboscada por los zulús en Italeni y tanto Uys como su hijo Dirkie, fueron matados. La fuerza rodeada y superada en número huyó. Potgieter fue criticado por sus acciones y la fuerza fue llamada el Comando de la Huida o "Die Vlugkommado". Él fue acusado adelante, injustamente, de causar deliberadamente la muerte de Uys por conducir la fuerza a la emboscada. Él se marchó Natal para siempre pronto después y se trasladó al Transvaal.

Posteriormente continuó para fundar Potchefstroom (llamada así por él) y se desempeñó como primer jefe de estado de la República de Potchefstroom entre 1840 y 1845.

Potgieter más tarde también continuó fundando Ohrigstad (al principio se llamó Andries-Ohrigstad por Potgieter y George Ohrig) en 1845, como una estación de comercio. Debido a la malaria la ciudad tuvo que ser abandonada y los habitantes, incluso Potgieter, se trasladaron al área Soutpansberg, donde fundó la ciudad Soutpansbergdorp, que más tarde renombró como Schoemasdal.

Después de la anexión de Natal en 1842 por Gran Bretaña, muchos trekkers de Natal se trasladaron al Estado Libre y Transvaal. Estos recién llegados y su líder, Andries Pretorius, rechazaron aceptar la autoridad de Potgieter, y surgió una lucha por el poder. La guerra fue prevenida, y en 1848 y fue firmado el tratado de paz de Rustenburg. Potgieter murió el 16 de diciembre de 1852 en Schoemasdal.

Nokia and Windows Phone 7 in a Tree….
If you read my hands-on review of the Nokia N8 – in my humble opinion it was only really the clunky operating system that let the premium handset down.
It seems that Nokia may be taking my (and others) opinions on-board and could be about to make an announcement regarding a change of OS.
This all stems from comments made by Nokia CEO Stephen Elop where he stated "We must build, catalyse or join a competitive ecosystem."
Various anylysts are hoping that the "join" in his comment is pointing towards a team up with Windows Phone 7.
Gartner analyst, Carolina Milanesi, told the New York Times: "I don't know if this is just wishful thinking, but it could definitely be the big announcement we are expecting," and Canalys analyst Pete Cunningham agrees: "I can see how this could benefit both companies."
This was the reaction after Nokia's share price rose more than 4% after Berenberg Bank analyst Adnaan Ahmad wrote an open letter to Elop and Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer the crux of which is basically — stop being so coy and get a room — or, words to that effect:
"Get rid of your own proprietary high-end solution (MeeGo) — it's the biggest joke in the tech industry right now and will put you even further behind Apple and Google"
Elop will be making an important announcement next Friday (11 February) in London to investors, and is expected to talk for the first time in depth about his long term plans for Nokia.
That's just a few days before they rock up at the Mobile World Congress show. Could this be a tech engagement between them and Windows Phone 7 or will they be hoping Android will have seen their moves and got jealous enough to get their seduction on?
What would you prefer – WinPho7 or Android on your Nok?

HaXe for Mac OS X v.2.07
haXe (pronounced as hex) is an open source programming language. While most other languages are bound to their own platform (Java to the JVM, C# to .Net, ActionScript to the Flash Player), haXe is a multiplatform language.
It means that you can use haXe to target the following platforms :
Javascript : You can compile a haXe program to a single .js file. You can access the typed browser DOM APIs with autocompletion support, and all the dependencies will be resolved at compilation time.
Flash : You can compile a haXe program to a .swf file. haXe is compatible with Flash Players 6 to 10, with either 'old' Flash 8 API or newest AS3/Flash9+ API. haXe offers very good performance and language features to develop Flash content.
NekoVM : You can compile a haXe program to NekoVM bytecode. This can be used for server-side programming such as dynamic webpages (using mod_neko for Apache) and also for command-line or desktop applications, since NekoVM can be embedded and extended with some other DLL.
PHP : You can compile a haXe program to .php files. This will enable you to use a high level strictly-typed language such as haXe while keeping full compatibility with your existing server platform and libraries.
C++ : You can now generate C++ code from your haXe source code, with the required Makefiles. This is very useful for creating native applications, for instance in iPhone development.
C# and Java targets are coming soon! (from @cwaneck)
The idea behind haXe is to let the developer choose the best platform for a given job. In general, this is not easy to do, because every new platform comes with its own programming language. What haXe provides you with is:
a standardized language with many good features
a standard library (including Date, Xml, Math...) that works the same on all platforms
platform-specific libraries : the full APIs for a given platform are accessible from haXe
· The haXe Syntax is similar to the one used in Java / JavaScript / ActionScript, so it's very easy to learn and get used to haXe. haXe can also integrate easily in your favorite editor or IDE
· The haXe Type System is strictly typed, enabling the compiler to detect most errors at compile-time. At the same time, it's very different from classic strictly typed languages since you don't have to write types everywhere in your program, thanks to type inference. It makes you feel like you are programming in a dynamically typed language while you are getting the security of a strictly typed language. The best of both worlds
· The haXe Standard Library, including Date, XML, data structures... is specified to behave the same across all platforms. This enables you to share and reuse code logic between different platforms without needing to rewrite the same thing again and again
· haXe is easily Extensible : you can add additional libraries and wrappers for platform-specific features. Thanks to conditional compilation you can have different implementation for a given API depending on the platform you want to compile to
· haXe has a Remoting library that provides cross platform serialization and RPC, enabling you to directly call methods between platforms. For example calls may be made between the client and the server or between different client modules. Everything is handled transparently
· haXe can be used to develop portable Desktop applications by using SWHX

Q: Kendo datgrid not sending sort field parameter to server I have a kendo datagrid that retrieves data through an ajax transport. The paging features work perfectly. However, the control keeps sending a blank sort field parameter when clicking a column heading to sort the data.
Interestingly, the control still sends the sort direction, just not the field name.
I've set sortable to true, DataSource, set serverPaging to true, and defined data types for each column. Is there anything else I am missing?
Unfortunately I can't post code right now, but can put something together if I can't resolve this through something simple.
Here is the post that's being sent to the web service:
endDate: "10/31/2013 12:00 AM"
page: 1
pageSize: 20
skip: 0
sort: [{field:[], dir:asc, compare:null}]
    0: {field:[], dir:asc, compare:null}
       compare: null
       dir: "asc"
       field: []
startDate: "10/1/2013 12:00 AM"
take: 20

A: In this case, the problem was caused by the way in which I was creating the DataSource.schema.model.fields object. Initially I had passed a multidimensional array, like:
var fields = [
    fields['Field1'] = [];
    fields['Field1']['type'] = 'string';
    fields['Field1']['editable'] = false;
    fields['Field1']['sortable'] = true;
];

Changing this to key/value pairs solved the sorting issue:
var fields = {
  Field1: {
     type: 'string',
     editable: false,
     sortable: true
  }
};

the fields object is then passed to DataSource.schema.model.fields.

Mr Brown keeps telling us Armageddon arrived out of a clear blue sky, and it's all the fault of those damned Americans. Does anyone actually believe that?
Many people have long been warning about how much debt we've run up over the last decade, and how there would have to be a reckoning. True, we've been shocked by the speed and ferocity of the collapse - a lingering 70s-style decade of jobless joylessness seemed more likely - but a reckoning there had to be.
And we in the UK are set to suffer a worse reckoning than most other major developed economies, because we have been far more reckless than them in maxing the credit cards.
The IMF has just published some striking charts showing how we compare.
So on the IMF's analysis, UK households come out as the most indebted: more indebted than households in other major European economies, and actually worse than profligate US households. And just compare us to those prudent Germans, who have reduced their debt.
Turning to our wobbling banks, a key issue is how much capital they have to support their lending - the more the better. But once again, we come out worse than other countries.
The following chart shows two key measures of banks' capital adequacy, and on both, higher is better. Yet on both we currently stack up very badly against both the American and European banks. As the chart shows, our banks need to increase their capital ratios by about one-third to get back into the comfort zone.
So when Mr Brown tells us the problem has blown in from across the Atlantic, he's being more than a little economical.
True, had the global debt bubble continued for ever, we might not have had a problem. But that's what's generally known as the Cloud Cuckoo Scenario.
The real issue was always how we were going to fare when the global music stopped. And there his economic stewardship has left us with a major problem.
For taxpayers the outlook is bleak. Because suddenly, we're not only shouldering that £1.8 trillion of on and off-balance sheet government debt (eg see this blog), but we're now effectively guaranteeing all our commercial bank debt. And that amounts to a staggering total of £6.5 trillion.
Or over four times our annual GDP.


Rabbi Noam Stein, our Upper School Director of Student Life and the chair of our Torah She Ba'al Peh and Machshava departments, will be sharing some of the unique work he has been doing in our high schools with a national audience.
Though he has been teaching Jewish thought, or machshava, for many years now, Rabbi Stein led the way in creating and implementing a new curricula for our high schools that not only looks at classical questions and sources in Jewish thought, but also digs deeply into current pressing issues facing the contemporary Jewish community. In a few weeks, Yeshiva University's YUHSChinuch Community of Practice will be running a Jewish Philosophy Yom Iyyun for Orthodox educators hosted by the Ramaz High School in Manhattan. Rabbi Stein is one of only five high school educators nationally who, in addition to YU Rosh Yeshiva, Rabbi Mayer Twersky and YU Professor of Philosophy, Dr. David Shatz, will be giving a session at the conference.

Browns notes: WRs Antonio Callaway, Rashard Higgins questionable Sunday
Browns all aboard Gregg Williams' crazy train this week
Charles LeClaire-USA TODAY Sports
Berea, OH (92.3 The Fan) – Baker Mayfield should get one receiver back Sunday, but he might lose another.
Rashard Higgins practiced again Friday and it looks like he will play even though he is officially questionable for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, but Antonio Callaway did not practice.
"I feel good, man, 100 percent, ready to go," Higgins said Friday.
Higgins suffered a sprained MCL in the 12-9 overtime win over the Ravens on Oct. 7 but three weeks of rehab have done him some good.
Unfortunately, the Browns have lost their last 3 without him.
"That was real tough," Higgins said. "There wasn't nothing I could really do, but seeing it from the other side, I got to critique a lot of stuff and I got to see how I could take my game to another level. Just seeing how guys play, how different DBs move and stuff and seeing the plays that, if I was in, I would have made.
"It's hard knowing that you can't be out there with your boys. I'm back this Sunday."
Callaway suffered an ankle injury during Thursday's practice which caused him to be limited before sitting out Friday.
Although interim head coach Gregg Williams isn't sure if Callaway will go, Higgins sounded confident.
"No, he'll be out there," Higgins said. "He better. You heard the speech that Jarvis gave, right? His ass better be out there."
Crazy train – The reactions within the locker room have been positive regarding Williams taking over as interim coach but Higgins provided one of the best ones Friday.
"I was like, man, this guy here crazy," Higgins said. "Throughout my whole life I've always had those hard coaches that harp on little things and that's always yelling and always mean, and those be the coaches that get the job done, and when I seen Gregg, I heard he's getting the head coaching job, I was just like, he's the right man for it. You've just got to adapt to change and that's what we did."
Defensive end Myles Garrett didn't exactly go out of his way to give his offensive teammates a heads up on what it's like to have Williams in a meeting room.
"Oh not at all," Garrett said. "They can get the shell-shock just like we did when we first got here. That's just part of getting to know Gregg."
Play to strengths – Williams acknowledged Friday that they spent part of the week tweaking the game plan to help Mayfield just like they do defensively to play to the strengths of their key players.
"We look for those type of things," Williams said. "It is not just about what we like to do – it is what they can do."
Injury report – Out: LB Joe Schobert (hamstring)
Questionable: S Damarious Randall (groin), WR Rashard Higgins (knee), WR Antonio Callaway (ankle), LT Desmond Harrison (illness)
Expected to play: C JC Tretter (ankle), TE David Njoku (knee), CB Tavierre Thomas (abdomen), WR Da'Mari Scott (shoulder), CB E.J. Gaines (concussion), RT Chris Hubbard (toe), RB Duke Johnson (back), OL Austin Corbett (foot)

What is happening to the timber wolf today?
Native Americans and early settlers often went to sleep to the sound of a lonely lullaby(催眠曲). It was the song of the wolf howling in a distant forest. There were many wolves then. One kind was the North American timber wolf.
Wolves are important to the balance of nature because they eat sick and weak animals. In Colorado, people tried to help deer by shooting wolves. But then there were so many deer that many of them starved to death.
The timber wolf is on the endangered special list. Animals on this list are in danger of disappearing from the earth. People drove the wolves away by cutting down the forests to build houses, towns, and highways. Timber wolves are now found only in Canada, Alaska, Michigan, and Minnesota.
This special animal may soon disappear from our forests forever. Then, its lonely howl will never be heard again.
1. Animals that are in danger of disappearing from the earth are called a _______species.
2. Wolves help the balance of nature because they _______.
3. At one time, the timber wolf was found _______.
4. Which of the following happened first?
A. People built towns and highways.
B. The timber wolf was driven away from its home.
C. People cut down the forests.


Oh, Mary don't you weep. Tell Martha not to mourn.
It's like that in politics. The job is the same. Personalities will differ, styles differ, temperaments differ, there is a difference in racial makeup, but the political game plan remains the same.
Congress makes the laws. The President only signs them. Congress appropriates the federal dollars. The President only proposes allocations and expenditures. The President can appoint a Supreme Court Justice and maybe other federal judges, but the President can't force a judge to consider or rule a certain way on any piece of legislation.
Yes, the president can make some executive decisions, give pardons and things like that, but he can't raise a Black Village or a single Black child.
When you cry and moan about a political party that takes for granted the political support of its most loyal base and feels sorry about losing candidates that feel you are professionally inferior, you're not only a political idiot, you are a traitor to your race!
Stop feeling mad about Donald Trump. Trump is no different than your neighbors, co-workers, health care providers, teachers, professors, church members and others that voted for Trump!
Whatever Trump does as President regarding African Americans, only the poor African Americans will feel. Rich Blacks will enjoy Trump's proposed tax cuts!

What do you call an original painting?
Does art need to be original?
What is original work of art?
Is it better to sell original art or prints?
Is it legal to copy paintings?
What is the purpose of an artist?
Why is original art so expensive?
"Original" quite simply means a unique one-off piece or small edition hand-pulled print from the artists own hand i.e an oil, acrylic, watercolor painting, etching or a drawing (i.e. not a machine driven process like a giclee). These are techically not 'fine prints" but are called "afters" (ie.
All works of art may be literally original, but not all works of art are as original as others. Those utilizing a more as-yet-unseen vision or style and/or best integrating previous works into their own will be the original works.
Original Art is any work considered to be an authentic example of the works of an artist, rather than a reproduction or imitation. That original may be a painting of some kind, or a sculpture, or a performance work, or one of many other kinds of media. Original Art may also mean the first, preceding all others.
Selling Original Art. When you sell original art, you create one piece of artwork that is sold once. When you sell original art, it has a higher value than a print. It's unique and buyers will pay more for the exclusivity of being the only one to own that piece of work.
Copying pre-existing works is legal, so long as the original work is in the public domain (meaning that the copyright on that work has expired). When your copies are substantially similar to the original, you are safe only in copying works that are in the public domain.
One of the functions of the artist is to make a statement of some kind. It may be a simple statement, the beauty of the landscape for example, but it is a statement. In one way or another, artists are trying to communicate an idea, an emotion, or a purpose in their work.
Art is valuable. Original art is expensive, because an artist's time is valuable, an artist's story is valuable, and an artist needs to pay bills and put food on the table. And sometimes, original art is ridiculously expensive because that artist achieved fame and now gets to f*&$ with rich people.

Are these things REALLY worth the money? I mean c'mon, $110-$160 for a quiver? Do they really do all the things they say they do, and wouldn't you think they would INCLUDE the mount for HHA style sights for that price? Anyway, I haven't heard much about them and wanna know everything I can before I decide to drop that much cash on a quiver. Thanks!

Do they actually dampen noise and vibration as stated on their website? I have an Alpine soft loc now and I love it, the only problem is when I put it on the bow the farthest arrow from me sometimes hits against my HHA sight. Doesn't stay there, it only happens while taking it off or putting it on.
I agree - and I had to see it to believe it last year!!! Finally broke down an tried one, an I'm not turning back!
Yes, they do a good job of dampening. I it the best at dampening... I don't know about that, but it does dampen some nose/vibe and it surely doesn't add any noise/vibe to your bow!!!
They are decent. But IMO I don't think they are worth the high price.
In my opinion if you are going to shoot with the quiver on they are the best on the market. You can get them real close to the bow so there is minimal balance impact side to side and lots of adjustability up and down and for different size arrow shafts. The dont really make your bow quieter than without a quiver on but they do not add any noise either. The only problem is they are a little heavy.
Mine is going to be here today for my vendetta.I had a tough time with the price also but a 2 piece pse eclipse quiver was about the same price, and I wanted to be able to easily remove it to put in my bow case. I will post my findings here later.
Anyone had any compatibility problems with the Tightspot and a Limbdriver Pro V?
Adding mass to a bow will lessen peak vibration. The refractory period is the time between the initial pulse of vibration and when it stops oscillating (comes to rest). Adding mass decreases the size of the initial pulse, but doesn't necessarily affect the refractory period. Mathews Harmonic Dampeners are a good example. They lessen the initial pulse but elongate the refractory period. Sims Vibration won't make Harmonic Dampeners for Mathews because of this. Sims wants a decrease in initial pulse and a decrease in refractory period. I don't see how adding the mass of a quiver could shorten both refractory period and initial pulse. And yes, I have done studies into harmonics.
I did have to cant the quiver forward from top to bottom between 3-5 degrees on a couple bows to avoid contact between the LD lever arm and carbon rod on the quiver. Of course I could also have not seated the quiver so close to the riser as well, but that defeats the purpose of having the "Tight" Spot. This also just highlights the versatility and flexibility of this quiver!

Don't mess with the Bow Only man... He's a smart dude, a little funny looking, but smart!
I flipped my mounting bracket on the sight to give myself a little extra clearance.
I agree with 2xR....best quiver I have tried to date. And helps with dampening of vibe also. Excellent product!!!!!

Heimatfilms behoren tot het typische filmgenre dat van de jaren 40 tot 70 populair was in Duitsland, Oostenrijk en Zwitserland en waarin die Heimat (d.i. de geboortegrond, het thuisland, eigen volk of streek of de plaatselijke natuur) geïdealiseerd wordt weergegeven.

Kenmerken

Heimatfilms spelen zich bijna altijd af in ongerepte natuurgebieden zoals de Alpen, de Lüneburger Heide of het Zwarte Woud, waarbij familietradities, liefde, vriendschap, eerbied voor de natuur en de eigen gewoontes en zeden op een sentimentele manier worden verheerlijkt.

De films werden in het Duitse taalgebied niet alleen aangekondigd als een heimatfilm, maar  ook als een drama (bijv. Am Brunnen vor dem Tore - 1952), een romantische komedie (bijv. Ich denke oft an Piroschka - 1955), een muzikale film (bijv. Wo die Lerche singt - 1956) of een liefdesfilm (bijv. Zwei Herzen voller Seligkeit - 1957) en zelfs als een "Kriminalfilm" (bijv. Weißer Holunder - 1957).

Naast de tegenstelling tussen de zuivere, landelijke tradities en de gevaren van de (vaak stedelijke) vooruitgang, draait het verhaal ook vaak om een integer meisje dat belaagd wordt door een slechterik en uiteindelijk gered wordt door de jongen van haar dromen.

Historiek

Al in 1910 ontstonden de eerste verfilmingen van de populaire heimatromans van de Duitse auteur Ludwig Ganghofer. Aanvankelijk sprak men nog van "Volksfilms". In 1933 werd de term "heimatfilm" voor het eerst gebruikt als genreaanduiding voor de verfilmingen van de heimatromans van Ganghofer, o.a. voor Die blonde Christl van Franz Seitz senior. De term "heimatfilm" zou pas in 1950 algemeen geïntroduceerd worden door de Duitse filmproducent Peter Ostermayr en nadien ook door de productiehuizen worden gebruikt voor het genre.

De heimatromans uit die tijd draaiden vaak rond opstandige boerendochters, ongelukkige liefdes tussen rijke edelen en arme boerenmeisjes, conflicten tussen jagers en stropers, de spanningen tussen stad en het platteland, Deze elementen zouden later terugkomen in de heimatfilms.
In de jaren 30 kwamen ook de eerste films in de zalen die zich niet langer binnenskamers afspeelden, maar  tegen de achtergrond van de ongerepte berglandschappen van Duitsland en Oostenrijk (oa. Die weiße Hölle vom Piz Palü uit 1929 en Stürme über dem Mont Blanc uit 1930 van regisseur Arnold Fanck). Tijdens het  naziregime werd het draaien van dergelijke "bergfilms" aangemoedigd omdat ze aansloten bij de verheerlijking van het vaderland.

Na de Tweede Wereldoorlog ontwikkelde het genre zich verder in West-Duitsland. Het enorme succes van Der Förster vom Silberwald  uit 1954  was het begin van de glorietijd van de Duitse en Oostenrijkse heimatfilms. Voor velen waren deze films een middel om te ontsnappen aan de gruwelijke gevolgen van de oorlog en de hardheid van het alledaagse bestaan in een verscheurd Duitsland. Ze gaven immers een (geïdealiseerd) beeld van een nieuwe toekomst.

Tot 1960 werden meer dan 300 heimatfilms gedraaid, maar vele films uit de jaren 50 en 60 waren remakes van films uit de  nationaalsocialistische periode. Heel wat films uit die periode werden vlak na de oorlog door de geallieerden als bedenkelijk bestempeld en enkel (aangepaste) remakes werden toegestaan. Ze draaiden meestal ook om ongelukkige liefdes, standenverschillen, de tegenstelling tussen stad en natuur, conflicten tussen traditie en vooruitgang of  generatieconflicten. De verhaallijn was vrij simpel, maar eindigden bijna altijd met een happy end.
In dezelfde periode werden ook in de DDR heimatfilms gedraaid, maar die waren meer bedoeld als propaganda voor het Oost-Duitse communistische regime.

Vanaf het midden van de jaren 60 begon het succes stilaan weg te ebben. In het decennium erna was er een lichte opflakkering, maar deze films waren minder romantisch van toon. Typisch voor deze periode waren de erotische  lederhosenfilms.
Elementen van de toenmalige heimatfilms zijn nog terug te vinden in Duitse tv-series zoals Die Schwarzwaldklinik.

Trivia

Algemeen wordt de heimatfilm beschouwd als een filmgenre dat typisch is voor het Duitse en Oostenrijkse taalgebied. In die zin is het genre te vergelijken met de Amerikaanse western.
In Oostenrijk behoren de verfilmingen van de  Heidi-boeken van de Oostenrijkse schrijfster Johanna Spyri ook tot het genre, evenals de Sissi-trilogie van Ernst Marischka.
Met 28 miljoen bezoekers is de Oostenrijkse Echo der Berge (Duitse titel: Der Förster vom Silberwald) uit 1954 de meest succesvolle heimatfilm ooit.

The nuclear and cytoplasmic compartments of eukaryotic cells are separated by the nuclear envelope. The nuclear envelope consists of an inner and outer nuclear membranes, nuclear pore complexes and an underlying nuclear lamina. The nuclear lamina is a network of lamin polymers and lamin-binding proteins embedded in the inner nuclear membrane. In the nuclear interior, lamins also form stable complexes. It is increasingly clear that lamins support a broad range of functions through interactions with multiple proteins that function in diverse cellular processes. Mutations in lamins and lamin-binding proteins cause a wide range of heritable or sporadic human diseases, collectively termed laminopathies ranging from muscular dystrophy to accelerated aging. Our research is concentrating on understanding the structure and functions of the nuclear lamina and why mutations in nuclear lamina proteins cause laminopathies. We use the C. elegans as our main model organism because it has a simple, but evolutionarily conserved composition of the nuclear lamina.

REVIEW: Super-stylish spy thrills in Atomic Blonde
Superb soundtrack: Atomic Blonde
Matt Adcock
Matt Adcock reviews Atomic Blonde (15), starring Charlize Theron and James McAvoy
In the mood for some stylish violent spy action? Good, you've come to the right place.
It's 1989, just before the end of the Cold War and the Berlin Wall coming down. Top MI6 agent Lorraine Broughton (Charlize 'Mad Max: Fury Road' Theron) must use her expert killing skills to recover a leaked list of operatives which could wipe out most of the agents in the field.
Based on a graphic novel called The Coldest City, Director David 'John Wick' Leitch brings some of the most brutal and exciting spy-em-up action for years to the big screen and Theron is an absolute force of nature.
Fuelled by a fast-paced twisty plot which sees a Russian killer trying to sell the list of agents whilst both East and West try to recover it for themselves – by eliminating anyone in the way. Lorraine – who is the Atomic Blonde of the title – teams up with British Station Chief David Percival (James 'Split' McAvoy) in order to find out who stole the list and killed her friend in the process. However the two do not know if they can actually trust each other which makes for a dangerous game.
Also on hand is French agent Delphine Lasalle (Sofia 'Kingsman' Boutella) who takes a bit of shine to Lorraine but again – despite the two becoming lovers - can anyone actually be trusted in the Cold War paranoia?
Quality support is also on hand from John Goodman and Toby Jones who are the US and UK debriefing team tasked with finding out exactly what happened in Berlin and just why the body count is so large.
Everything about Atomic Blonde is super stylish, and the '80s music soundtrack is just superb – from the second New Order's Blue Monday kicks in at the start through to use of Siouxsie and the Banshees and Depeche Mode with one of my all time faves Behind the Wheel.
If you want to quibble you could complain about the bad language or the amount of time the females spend in their underwear but overall this is a very strong new potential action franchise.
The action is frenetic and crunching – think John Wick at his best but female and every bit as cool. Theron has created a girl power action icon in Atomic Blonde – let's hope there is a sequel.
