Born in Gaza in 1966, Taysir Batniji has lived and worked in Paris since 1995. Torn between two countries, two cultures, and two worlds, Batniji's multimedia artistic practice deals with exile, memory and identity. Political and social questions are addressed through autobiographical notes that highlight these themes with a subtle and poetic tone.
Home Away From Home is part of a project commissioned by the Fondation d'entreprise Hermès and Aperture Foundation. During his visit, Batniji documented the lives of his relatives through a series of photographs, which trace the story of the artist's four cousins and their families living in the United States. The images – portraits of people, photos of houses, shots of interiors – map personal fragments of the past and present while speaking of assimilation, displacement and homeland. They also question plural identities, blending roots, culture and religion with purposeful integration efforts. Putting these images in perspective, a composition of photographs, watercolours and drawings depicts Batniji's family home in Gaza. A palm tree only visible on the drawings once stood in the centre of the garden. It has been cut down long time ago and the house now appears abandoned. Like the uprooted palm tree, the family writes its history now from afar and across countries.
The exhibition also includes Gaza - Journal intime # 3, 1999-2006, a photo series that talks of birthplaces and adopted homes, past and present, memories and reality. These images from Gaza capture daily life, highlighting its uncertainty through the choice of subjects, such as a cheerful fisherman on a boat against the abandoned, conflict-ridden stripe along the beach. The old home and the new exist under the same sun, and are both lined by the sea.
Taysir Batniji studied Fine Art at Al Najah University in Nablus, Palestine and at the School of Arts in Bourges, France. In recent years he has held solo exhibitions at Les Rencontres Internationales de la Photographie, Arles (2018), Aperture Foundation, New York (2018), Contemporary Art Space Andre? Malraux,, Colmar (2016), Espace Culturel Robert de Lamanon, Colmar (2016), Cultural Center Salon de Provence, Marseille (2013), Musee d'Art et d'Histoire, Geneva (2007) and Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art, Rotterdam (2004). His works were shown in the following group exhibitions: Boghossian Foundation, Brussels (2018), Mulhouse Art Center - Mulhouse (2017), Wu?rttembergischer Kunstverein Stuttgart (2017), Valencia Institute of Modern Art, Valencia (2016), Center Pompidou (2014). He participated in the Venice Biennale in 2011, 2009 and 2003. His works are part of prominent collections – to name a few – Center Georges Pompidou, Paris; Victoria & Albert Museum, London and Kunsthalle Wien.

NEW YORK (WCBS 880) -- New York freshman congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez will be on the cover of Time Magazine's April first edition with the headline " The Phenom."
The story describes Ocasio-Cortez as the second most talked about politician in America since she beat out 10-term former congressman Joe Crowley in 2018.
The article also describes Ocasio-Cortez as the "wonder woman of the left" and the "wicked witch of the right."


Are you looking for unbiased, journalistically sound cruise travel information to share with your clients? An editor with cruise experience can help.
Earlier this year, I began the process of narrowing the focus of Lisa Plotnick Editorial to a single industry – cruise travel. With the support and guidance of friends, family, and mentors (including the faculty of the Emerson College Department of Professional Studies and my new employer), the conversion is now complete.
Bear with me while I do some shameless self-promotion.
Editorial experience. The skills I use in my career as a writer in the financial services industry — research, copyediting, developmental editing, and news reporting — have proven to be transferable to the travel industry.
Existing online portfolio. I started publishing my own e-magazine, NauticalNotebook.com, in 2010 and was selected as Boston Cruise Examiner for Examiner.com in 2012.
While I have not abandoned the retirement income industry – as if that could ever happen – I look forward to taking the business in a new direction. I hope you will join me on the journey.


I spent a few days in Auckland last week and was fascinated again by the dominance of the Sky Tower – and its beauty. Around the city centre it kept popping up on the landscape – but especially in the reflections off buildings that I increasingly began to look for.
Here I have captured a reflection that kind of has an element of apocalyptic judgement on it… it is an iconic and quite wonderful building, but it also houses a gambling house – a place of broken dreams, addictions, and this last week, some dodgy politics over the number of pokie machines!

Q: Fourier series for $f(x)=e^{3|x|}$ I wish to find the Fourier series for $f(x)=e^{3|x|}$ for $x\in[-\pi,\pi]$.
My solution: $f(x)$ is an even function so the $b_n$ coefficients are zero. As such we need only find $a_n$ and $\frac{a_0}{2}$. Using the usual formulae for these coefficients, I found the following:
$$S(x)=\frac{e^{3\pi}-2}{3\pi}+\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{6e^{3\pi}(-1)^n-3-3e^{3\pi}(n^2+9)}{n^2+9}\cos(nx)$$
I do not think my solution for $\frac{a_0}{2}$ is correct ; apart from this, is the remainder of the solution correct?

A: When it comes to $\frac{a_{0}}{2}$ we get:
$$ a_{0}= \frac{1}{\pi} \int_{- \pi}^{0} e^{-3x} dx + \frac{1}{\pi} \int_{0}^{\pi} e^{3x} dx = \frac{2}{3\pi} ( e^{3 \pi}-1)$$
Therefore, $$\frac{a_{0}}{2}= \frac{1}{3\pi} ( e^{3 \pi}-1)$$
So you might want to double-check how you computed those integrals.
Now, when it comes to the coefficients for the cosine series, we have:
$$ a_{n}= \int_{-\pi}^{0} e^{-3x}\cos(nx)dx + \int_{0}^{\pi} e^{3x}\cos(nx)dx$$
When you work this out you get:
$$ \frac{3(-1)^ne^{3\pi}-3} {n^2+9} + \frac{3(-1)^ne^{3\pi}-3} {n^2+9}=\frac{6(-1)^ne^{3\pi}-6} {n^2+9}  $$
Thus, your Fourier series should look like this:

$$ \frac{1}{3\pi} ( e^{3 \pi}-1) + \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{6(-1)^ne^{3\pi}-6} {n^2+9}
 \cos(nx)$$

Please remember to accept the answer if it is helpful.

Economic Performance Under Democratic Regimes in Latin America in the Twenty-First Century
Author: Gustafson, Lowell S.; and Pattnayak, Satya R., editors
These essays explain and evaluate the experience of democracy in recent years, considering the historical, economic, cultural, and social factors that aided its re-emergence, as well as the continued poverty and inequality in the region that challenge it.
"This well-balanced collection of essays analyzes why the region's new democracies had to abandon a state-centered development strategy to confront the new realities. Essays include up-to-date studies of contemporary Mexico, Argentina, and Chile, regional comparisons with emerging industrial states in Asia, and a fresh look at the development options the state has in a globalized economy. For courses on Latin American politics, on economic development, or on the state, it provides an excellent text grounded in case studies, yet open to well-crafted generalizations." – James Lang, Vanderbilt University
"This book provides a documented and nuanced evaluation of the successes and failures of the 'least bad' democracies in Latin America over the last decade." – Paul E. Sigmund, Princeton University "…makes a significant contribution to the understanding of democratic advances in Latin America….The book's singular achievement lies in the contributors' rigorous, exhaustive, and detailed analysis of the conditions under which democratic regimes in this continent have been erected. Furthermore, in a very solid way the book alerts us to the threats that loom around the democratic progress, due to the extreme income inequality, poverty, the lack of health care and education, and environmental degradation." – Dr. Fernando Pozos Ponce, Universidad de Guadalajara

Hidden Hunger: Tackling micronutrient deficiencies – One Billion Hungry: Can We Feed the World?
But breeding more nutritious crops is only part of the solution to tackle hidden hunger. Growing a diversity of nutritious crops will help to boost household nutrition. Gordon Conway often references his experiences of Home Gardens in Java (see picture) that grow a wide variety of plants and crops and house different livestock, all of which can be consumed or sold. The M.S.Swaminathan Research Foundation has recognised the importance of local people in fighting hidden hunger and has established a programme of Community Hunger Fighters, village volunteers who are trained to address the major causes of malnutrition within their community.
Agricultural measures, such as improved varieties, diversification and biofortification, to reduce micronutrient deficiency are important for the long-term. Supplements to provide micronutrients lacking in the diet such as vitamin A can be critical in times of disaster and can reach a large number of people. But supplementation can also be costly and have unintended consequences. As an example, a recent study found that when supplements containing iron, folic acid, copper and vitamins were given to more than 600 Tanzanian children suffering iron deficiency their likelihood of contracting malaria rose by 41 per cent.
As we see malnutrition is a complex problem and will require a variety of complementary solutions. While it manifests in individuals, communities and countries it occurs at the cellular level, requiring research at multiple scales alongside better nutrition education, better hygiene and sanitation, access to clean water and health care, and diversified and resilient agricultural production. Such a holistic approach is being piloted in Mali in the Africa RISING project where community health centres and women's groups are being trained on a variety of topics.
The momentum around tackling hidden hunger is growing and we can expect strong support from the G8 countries and other influential figures this weekend. There are a plethora of solutions and many good news stories but we desperately need to keep this momentum going and break down the boundaries between different sectors and government ministries to truly take integrated, harmonised and impactful action against malnutrition.

It is tough being in charge. The talents that propel leaders to their current levels are not necessarily the skills that will keep them there or prepare them for the future. My clients realize this. They have the self-confidence to acknowledge leadership as a path of development, requiring self-knowledge and continuous personal improvement.

VP of Organizational and Career Transition Consulting with Right Management Consultants, a global Human Resources Consulting firm.
After getting my undergraduate degree in psychology, I realized that I was more interested in working with normal people than abnormal ones! So I joined the military, earned an MBA and entered the business world. For 15 years I focused on the people side of companies.
Later I joined an international organizational consulting firm, where I worked with hundreds of executives, departments and whole companies undergoing stressful transitions. Part of that work involved coaching managers and executives to enhance their leadership and performance capabilities and identifying and conducting change management processes. My objective was to foster the necessary changes to enhance business performance and profitability. I became a recognized expert on several individual assessment tools.
With 30 years of corporate experience, it was clear to me that I could be even more effective focusing on building a coaching firm. After thoughtfully building the infrastructure needed to create our business, I became a principal of Thinking Partners Inc. My professional background equipped me well to build the practice. Like all who shift working cultures, I had to address potential loss issues like affiliation and security. I knew, however, that I wanted more control over my work and flexibility in my life.
To enhance my credentials, I undertook the rigorous requirements to become a Master Certified Coach. I have trained 40 other coaches and enthusiastically spent over 5000 hours coaching clients individually and working with executive teams.

Lance Armstrong has finally confessed to doping during an interview with Oprah Winfrey, in which he admitted he had not originally viewed drug-taking as cheating.
The 41-year-old, who won the Tour de France seven times after beating testicular cancer, was stripped of all his titles last October after an investigation by the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA).
For years Armstrong had strongly denied allegations of doping, but he admitted to Winfrey that he had used blood-boosting agent EPO and had taken testosterone, human growth hormone, cortisone and blood doping.
Armstrong, who established the Livestrong Foundation to support people affected by cancer, said the story of the cancer suffer-turned champion was a 'mythic, perfect story and it wasn't true'.
But while many expected a tearful confession from the disgraced cycling star, Armstrong said that at the time of his drug-taking he had not viewed it as wrong, or that it was cheating, as so many other riders were taking drugs.
'I looked up the definition of a cheat: to gain an advantage. I didn't view it that way. I viewed it as a level playing field,' he said.
Saying he felt doping was necessary to win the Tour de France, he added: 'That's like saying we have to have air in our tyres or water in our bottles. It was part of the job.
Admitting that his doping began before his cancer diagnosis, he said that after his cancer battle he felt he could justify using testosterone.
'My cocktail, so to speak, was only EPO, but not a lot, transfusions and testosterone, which in a weird way I almost justified because of my history, with having testicular cancer and losing (a testicle); "Surely I'm running low".
He also insisted he had not been doping during his comeback in 2009 and 2010 – although the head of the World Anti-Doping Agency has since expressed scepticism at this claim.
John Fahey told The Daily Telegraph: 'The evidence from USADA is that Armstrong's blood tests show variations in his blood that show with absolute certainty he was doping after 2005. Believe USADA or believe Armstrong? I know who to believe.
Armstrong is now facing lawsuits having successfully sued many, including The Sunday Times, for publicly accusing him of doping.
The second part of his interview with Oprah Winfrey will be broadcast tomorrow.


We used the organic Mighty Grow fertilizers to grow Fall vegetable crops of summer squash and lettuce, with excellent results.
All fertilizers were applied at a 200 lb N per acre. This occurred at planting, and fertilizers were incorporated within the upper 4″ of the planting bed.
A noticeable positive attribute of the Mighty Grow formulations was a lack of dust with handling. Dust exposure from organic fertilizers during handling can be a serious hazard.
In addition, the Mighty Grow fertilizers appeared to apply evenly with traditional agricultural equipment.
Squash and lettuce plants established and grew well in the Mighty Grow treated beds. No differences were observed in between fertilizer treatments. Mighty Grow fertilizer yielded vigorous plant growth which resulted in high vegetable crop yield.
Both short term and long term crop nutrient demands were met by the Mighty Grow fertilizers.
Yields were consistent across organic fertilizer treatments. Squash yields approached 400 (1/2 bushel) cases per acre. Lettuce harvest resulted in less than 5% cull, and lettuce heads were of marketable weight and size with a harvest period of 10 days.
No nutrient deficiencies were observed in the Mighty Grow treated areas.
I found the Mighty Grow fertilizers were easy to work with, provided comparable crop nutrition, and resulted in high marketable yields.

Our love was started like the speed of light.
I could not help but fall into your gaze.
But against our will our hearts were ablaze.
To the day we first caught each other's eye.
In strength, I fall weak and can only sigh.
Our love was fast and it grew day by day.
I could not spend a minute without you.
Eternal happiness you led me to.
To have you again as my other part.
Honestly, I wanted to change my theme because…well I broke up with my boyfriend of two years just a few days ago. But rather than changing the theme since its my last post anyway, I decided to add my experience with my ex-boyfriend to further analyze love and relationships.
I honestly thought I would get married with the guy. I was able to experience the happiness of being with another person, through him. In the past, I was never able to feel a connection with any other guy but when I first met him at the academy I work in, I knew we were meant to be. He was an older brother of a student at the academy and he was waiting in the main office (my office) for his brother's lesson to be over. We made eye contact and the next day, he came and asked me for my number.
Honestly, how can two people meet and connect that quickly? So, without a second of a doubt, I believed that he was my other half. He told me he believed that as well.
But I guess love isn't everlasting. We…well, "I" experienced two years of fiery love and until the day he asked to break up, I truly believed he was going to be my future husband. Honestly, we were arguing a lot lately and we both seemed to be losing patience with one another. I guess I should have seen it coming.
But that makes me think. How do people decide who they will marry? There were a few couples around me that have been dating for 3or more years and we all believed that they were going to marry but unfortunately most of them broke up. I honestly feel that that time spent with that person is pointless if its going to end eventually. I honestly want to meet someone, thinking of marriage in our near future.
In my opinion, love is not a one time thing. Love occurs continuously throughout ones lifetime. And for it to lead to marriage, both sides need to meet at a certain level. Basically, those who get married are accepting each other's flaws and mistakes. Knowing these flaws, they learn to cover for them and build a solid, flawless relationship.

The graphics design industry is huge, with millions of people practicing their trade by creating logos for companies and selling them on crowdsourcing websites.
With such a huge competition, it's hard to stand out. If you are a beginner, it's even harder to get a fair chance to start because of the huge competition. Many logo designers are already established, and everyone wants to pick their brains on how to create a good company logo.
In this article, we are going to give you a few graphic design tips that will surely help you start creating great company logos.
You might not know this, but sometimes even graphic designers need a bit of inspiration to get them going. What you should do, if you're ever stuck creating a logo, is to simply go on Google and start browsing other logos. This is an excellent way to get inspired and move out of your sticky patch. By no means you should completely copy another logo, just observe and see where you can make changes that will improve the logo that you are currently working.
According to Jasa design logo, color is one of the most important aspects of logo design. This is because color gives too much meaning to a logo, and it communicates ideas. Colors are used to bring life to the logo itself. They uplift the logo and project it in another life. What experienced graphic designers usually do is make a version of the logo all colorful and nice, and have another black and white. The former will project exploration freedom, while the latter will serve a versatile option for other occasions.
In the logo design industry, it's important not to jump on the newest bandwagon trend. While there is a reason when a certain logo design is trending, avoid it because it's unoriginal and not that interesting in general. You can use some elements but avoid using the entire design.
This point adds nicely to the previous one. Making something "your own" is a common term in digital marketing. It means creating something so unique, that you will be instantly recognized by just looking at it. Take for example the Coca Cola logo. Its unique design can be recognized by anyone. Your logo doesn't need to be over the top looking, but rather simplistic and unique.
While on the subject of the Coca Cola logo, this next point ties us up nicely. Namely, everyone loves a logo that is made out of some custom lettering. Discover a font that will be unique for your logo; something that will sound nice with the company name. If someone is paying you to design their logo, then you must put in some extra work instead of typing the logo itself.
Not all graphic designers have equal skills. Some excel in areas that others don't. Those who know and provide graphic design services, know that sometimes the best logo is the simplest one. Take into consideration Nike and Apple. They are both simple logos, but yet unique in their own way. Both logos are nothing special, yet they are extremely well made. Apple logos is, well an apple, but take that bite out and it makes the logo something else. It gives the logo uniqueness and it makes it next level. It turns a boring logo into an interesting one.

The London Charterhouse is a historic complex of buildings in Smithfield, London, dating back to the 14th century. It occupies land to the north of Charterhouse Square, and lies within the London Borough of Islington.
The Charterhouse began as (and takes its name from) a Carthusian priory, founded in 1371 and dissolved in 1537. Substantial fragments remain from this monastic period, but the site was largely rebuilt after 1545 as a large courtyard house. Thus, today it "conveys a vivid impression of the type of large rambling 16th century mansion that once existed all round London".
The Charterhouse was further altered and extended after 1611, when it became an almshouse and school, endowed by Thomas Sutton. The almshouse (a home for gentlemen pensioners) still occupies the site today under the name The Charterhouse; the school moved out in 1872 to Godalming, Surrey, where it survives as Charterhouse School (although its formal name does not include the word "school").
In 1348, Walter de Manny rented 13-acre (0.05 km2) of land in Spital Croft, north of Long Lane, from the Master and Brethren of St Bartholomew's Hospital for a graveyard and plague pit for victims of the Black Death. A chapel and hermitage were constructed, renamed New Church Haw; but in 1371 this land was granted for the foundation of the London Charterhouse, a Carthusian monastery.
The twenty-five monks each had their own small building and garden. Thomas More came to the monastery for spiritual recuperation. The name is derived as an Anglicisation of La Grande Chartreuse, whose order founded the monastery.
The monastery was closed in 1537, in the Dissolution of the Monasteries in the English Reformation. As it resisted dissolution the monastery was treated harshly: the Prior, John Houghton was hanged, drawn and quartered at Tyburn and ten monks were taken to the nearby Newgate Prison; nine of these men starved to death and the tenth was executed three years later at Tower Hill. They constitute the group known as the Carthusian Martyrs.
For several years after the dissolution of the priory, members of the Bassano family of instrument makers were amongst the tenants of the former monks' cells, whilst Henry VIII stored hunting equipment in the church. But, in 1545, the entire site was bought by Sir Edward (later Lord) North (c. 1496–1564), who transformed the complex into a luxurious mansion house. North demolished the church and built the Great Hall and adjoining Great Chamber. In 1558, during North's occupancy, Queen Elizabeth I used the house during the preparations for her coronation.
Following North's death, the property was purchased by Thomas Howard, 4th Duke of Norfolk, who renamed it Howard House. In 1570, following his imprisonment in the Tower of London for scheming to marry Mary, Queen of Scots, Norfolk was placed under house arrest at the Charterhouse. He occupied his time by embellishing the house, and built a long terrace in the garden (which survives as the "Norfolk Cloister") leading to a tennis court. In 1571, Norfolk's involvement in the Ridolfi plot was exposed after a ciphered letter from Mary, Queen of Scots was discovered under a doormat in the house; he was executed the following year.
The property passed to Norfolk's son, Thomas Howard, 1st Earl of Suffolk. During his occupancy, James I held court there on his first entrance into London in 1603.
In May 1611 it came into the hands of Thomas Sutton (1532–1611) of Knaith, Lincolnshire. He was appointed Master of Ordnance in Northern Parts, and acquired a fortune by the discovery of coal on two estates which he had leased near Newcastle upon Tyne, and later, upon moving to London, he carried on a commercial career. Before he died on 12 December of that year, he endowed a hospital on the site of the Charterhouse, calling it the Hospital of King James; and in his will he bequeathed money to maintain a chapel, hospital (almshouse) and school.
In the Case of Sutton's Hospital, his will was hotly contested but upheld in court, meaning the foundation was constituted to afford a home for eighty male pensioners ("gentlemen by descent and in poverty, soldiers that have borne arms by sea or land, merchants decayed by piracy or shipwreck, or servants in household to the King or Queens Majesty"), and to educate forty boys.
Charterhouse early established a reputation for excellence in hospital care and treatment, thanks in part to Henry Levett, M.D., an Oxford graduate who joined the school as physician in 1712. Levett was widely esteemed for his medical writings, including an early tract on the treatment of smallpox. He was buried in Charterhouse Chapel, and his widow married Andrew Tooke, the master of Charterhouse.
The school, Charterhouse School, developed beyond the original intentions of its founder, to become a well-regarded public school. In 1872, under the headmastership of Rev. William Haig Brown, the school moved to new buildings in the parish of Godalming in Surrey, opening on 18 June.
Following the departure of Charterhouse School, its buildings, on the site of the former monastic great cloister, were taken over by Merchant Taylors' School, until that moved out in turn in 1933 to a new site near Northwood, Hertfordshire. The school buildings then became home to the St Bartholomew's Hospital Medical School, and (though now much redeveloped) remain one of the sites occupied by its successor, Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry. The main part of the cloister garth continues to be a well-tended site mostly laid to lawn in the quadrangle of the university site.
The principal historic buildings of the Charterhouse were severely damaged by enemy action in May 1941, during the Blitz. They were sensitively restored between 1950 and 1959 under the direction of the architects John Seely and Paul Paget, an exercise which allowed the exposure and embellishment of some medieval and much 16th- and 17th-century fabric that had previously been concealed or obscured.
In preparation for and in conjunction with the restoration project, archaeological investigations were carried out by W. F. Grimes, which led to a greatly enhanced understanding of the layout of the monastic buildings, and the discovery of the remains of Walter de Manny, the founder, buried in a lead coffin before the high altar of the monastic chapel. These remains were identified as Manny's beyond reasonable doubt by the presence in the coffin of a lead bulla (seal) of Pope Clement VI: in 1351 Clement had granted Manny a licence to select his own deathbed confessor, a document that would have been issued with just such a bulla attached.
Charterhouse continues to serve as an almshouse to 40 male pensioners, known as Brothers, who are in need of financial and companionship support. The complex is open for pre-booked guided tours; and the chapel can be viewed as part of the annual Open House London event.
In partnership with the Museum of London the Charterhouse has opened up the site to the public. There are three key elements to the project: a new museum, which tells the story of the Charterhouse from the Black Death to the present day; a Learning Room and Learning Programme so that school groups can discover how the Charterhouse has been home to everyone from monks and monarchs to schoolboys and Brothers; and a newly landscaped Charterhouse Square open to the public so that more people can enjoy the green surroundings.
Works for this project were completed and opened to the public in January 2017. Guided tours are available.
Charterhouse was considered to be an extra-parochial area and was not incorporated or included in a district of parishes by the Metropolis Management Act 1855. In 1858, following the Extra-Parochial Places Act 1857, it effectively became a civil parish for all purposes, with the provision that it would not form part of any poor law union. It was later added to the Holborn union in 1877.
In 1900 it became part of the Metropolitan Borough of Finsbury, and was abolished as a separate civil parish in 1915. Since 1965 it has been part of the London Borough of Islington in Greater London.
The nearest tube station is Barbican but Farringdon tube and surface rail station is also close.

SAP, Germany's largest software company, unveiled detailed plans to support the Linux operating systems at CeBIT on Thursday.
SAP CEO and co-founder Hasso Plattner announced the group's new moto: "Enjoy SAP". The slogan is designed to reflect the company's efforts to achieve simple handling of the business management standard software, R/3, in time for its release on April 6.
Plattner then spoke of the company's Linux activities: supporting Linux should not create any complications as the R/3 architecture is always laid down independently of the platform. Furthermore, SAP has, in principal, been supporting Unix-Systems for a long time. Customer servicing of R/3 on Linux should, said the company, not be a problem.
Plattner named four SAP-partners who offer Intel based hardware support, on which R/3 runs. Compaq, Hewlett-Packard, IBM and Siemens.
Red Hat Linux was chosen for the distribution of 4.0B as of R/3's release. Plattner implied that applications, databases and servers will all be able to run together. R/3 for Linux will be up for grabs as from the second half of this year, added Plattner.

On the eve of Jon Stewart's return from his long film-making absence, "The Daily Show" compiles a few minutes' worth of what they apparently consider his best Jewish routines. (Hat tip to Chemi Shalev for finding and tweeting this.)
For my money, though, they left out at least two of his most memorable Jewish bits, one of which is his absolute No. 1 in my book. I refer, of course, to his Passover vs. Easter "faith-off" on April 10, 2012, which was not just hilarious but a deeply thoughtful critique of the state of Jewish continuity.
I'd also bring in his conversation with Weekly Standard editor Bill Kristol on November 4, 2004, two days after George W. Bush's reelection.
Here's their collection:
Here's my key excerpt from the 2004 Bill Kristol interview:
Stewart: I always think about this wild word, "elite." Because they always throw it around, you know, "the liberal elite." And I kept thinking to myself, you know, the Christian right – what's more elite than believing only you will go to heaven? Like, I always wondered why that – isn't that elitist, or no?Kristol: You should ask one of your Christian guests that. But you know, we Jews believe in the Chosen People. We have our own kind of elitism.Stewart: I'm a Jew who believes in a bagel buffet.
As for the Passover bit, you'll have to watch the clip itself. It's right after the jump (as is the full interview with Kristol):
