A Response to Randall Kennedy
In the spirit of fostering a community-wide conversation, we wanted to respond to Randall Kennedy's provocative op-ed.
Although Randy is unperturbed by the black tape recently placed over his photograph, he is quite concerned about something else: the potentially destructive effects of taking the outrage and demands of some students at Harvard Law School – and at universities around the country – too seriously.
These students perceive racism not only on the walls of Harvard Law School but also in its history, culture, curriculum, and personnel. Having asked some of those students to explain "with as much particularity as possible" the sources of their discontent, Randy is largely unconvinced. Some of their "complaints" may have "a ring of validity," but others "are dubious." True, their "accusations warrant close examination and may well justify further reforms," but his primary concern is with the intensity and unintended consequences of their grievances. On the pages of The New York Times, he cautions those youngsters to avoid "exaggerat[ing] the scope of the racism" or "minimizing their own strength and the victories that they and their forebears have already achieved."
Randy suggests that the students are being childishly hyperbolic – losing sight of the big picture on which he and other seasoned observers are focused. But couldn't the gap between Randy's reaction and the protesters' complaints at Harvard Law School and around the country have another source? Is the problem one of oversensitivity or insensitivity? Exaggerated racism or understated racism?
Like many others in the HLS community, we have been engaging with students on these topics extensively for some years. In those discussions, we have noted two very different, but often overlapping and confused, definitions of "racism" in play. We suspect that these profoundly different definitions are at the core of the disagreement between student protesters and the administrations and faculties they are protesting.
The version that is most common and that seems to animate Randy's op-ed assumes a force that is conspicuous and malevolent: Bull Connor, George Wallace, the KKK, and so on. Racism of that sort is no longer of us or from us. It is foreign – an alien from another time. It is pathology, sickness, and a deviation from the norm. And it is ugly and despised. Like a bloodthirsty dragon emerging from its lair, we would eagerly join forces to chase it down and slay it. In fact, that has been the project of previous generations, to which this group of students should be grateful and deferential. That is why such explicit racism is relatively rare these days and why we need to be painstaking not to mislabel some behavior "racist," lest some innocent be hurt or some values be compromised.
The student protestors understand that version of racism, but they (and, to be clear, we) are focused on a second, very different version. This type of racism can be hard to see and is often easy to dismiss. It is malleable and insidious. It's in the architecture of expectations, the ranking of authorities, the sway of circumstance, the nudge of defaults, and the grammar of culture. It hides behind flowery truisms and elaborate self-deceptions. It's in the norms, customs, precedents, and incentive structures of institutions, jobs, and roles. It's in the decorative euphemisms for revenue sources, the devilish details of doctrine, the artful camouflaging of motives, the clever rationalization of outcomes, and the river of neural synapses that link some concepts more definitively than others. It's in the hard-to-see privileging of certain ideas – buffered by unexamined baselines, illusions of neutrality, and elastic categorical boundaries. It's in the body language of dominance and submission, the harness of manners and professionalism, the limits of suitable conversation topics, and the hierarchy of acceptable emotional reactions. It's in the traditions that make us "us" (and them "them") and the selective memory and beneficence those traditions memorialize. It resides in the familiar. It is of us, around us, and within us. This version of racism is in the epistemic, existential, and relational systems that constitute us.
That systems-based understanding of "racism" is therefore deeply unsettling. It sees threads of a translucent web moving within the interstices of structures, rituals, and ideologies to maintain racial oppression and advantage – much of it bolstered, girded, and legitimated by law and legal theory. It connects Laquan MacDonald's horrible killing to criminal law and housing policies. It connects Freddie Gray's grisly death to environmental law and local government law. And it connects Laquan MacDonald to Freddie Gray and both to many other victims of police violence who have not become household names. It connects anger at Mizzou and Yale with anger on our campus. It connects the Royall crest to the Confederate flag. It connects Derrick Bell to Kim Crenshaw and Derek Bok to Martha Minow. It connects Harvard Law School and our legal system to the broken world that some students observe in their lives and others read about on the very pages in which Harvard Law faculty admonish students to count their blessings and tread cautiously.
For the same reasons, it is possible to "see" connections that do not exist or to overstate the significance of some factor that is connected. But the difficulty in identifying the precise causes of systemic racism does not necessarily undermine the conclusion that systemic racism is at work. In the context of our country's history of racism and of ongoing racial disparities in everything from wealth and education to health and incarceration, our presumption should be to listen carefully to students (and scholars) claiming to identify the sources of systemic racism and to join the effort to understand and alter the confluence of causes.
There are, then, two very different understandings of what "racism" is. The first focuses on racial animus, and the second, on racial systems. The first type of racism leaps out, while the second fades into the background. The first places blame on the racist individual. The second places responsibility on everyone, and particularly on those who benefit from or control the systems themselves. The law has grown responsive to the first, but ignores and obscures the second.
Randy is not alarmed by the defacement of his photograph, because "the identity and motives of the person or people behind the taping have not been determined." Absent clear evidence of racial animus, there is no racism, by his definition.
When Randy argues that "[r]acism and its kindred pathologies are already big foes," he again misses the point. Yes, animus-based racism may be strongly opposed, but systemic racism is formidable precisely because it is interwoven in who we are and defended even by those who are sometimes its victims.
When Randy highlights the "brightly colored stickers expressing respect and appreciation, and rejecting bigotry" on those same photos, he reveals the gulf between his definition and theirs. Post-it notes, according to Randy, constitute proof that ours is not a racist space, at least not any more racist than other "major institutions in America." Yes, those "brightly colored stickers" were certainly soothing and reassuring. It was heartwarming to be reminded of the many people in our community who were upset and willing to help slay the dragon of racial animus. Many felt, as we did, that the stickers were a beautiful moment of solidarity in an otherwise ugly day. Those stickers do not, however, suggest an absence of systemic racism and do not constitute a systemic response. They were a fleeting effort that could represent the height of collective attention given to the issue of racism in an institution that has, with some important exceptions, been acquiescent in the face of racial inequalities for most of its two hundred years.
From the students' perspective, Randy is not offering sage counsel to like-minded youth on how to challenge systemic racism more effectively. He is redefining racism and trivializing the experience, insights, and courage of the students who perceive something that he doesn't. They are saying "this is real, and it matters," and he and many others are saying "um, perhaps so, but you may be making it up." These students are struggling to teach their teachers and their classmates, who require more proof but are not moved to search for it themselves.
Why is that their task? Why are not the profound and obvious racial disparities, connected to systemically racist laws and policies and linked to historical oppression and cultural stereotypes, not enough to shift the burden?
Randy, like many in our community, demands particulars – but those particulars are subject to the defense of individualized exceptions and the motivated exploitation of inevitable ambiguities. Unless students can decisively establish that the photograph defacer was a white member of our community motivated "to convey anti-black contempt or hatred for the African-American professors," and that those actions were "characteristic," then we need to "calibrate carefully" and not become too agitated about race and racism at Harvard Law School or elsewhere.
Ambiguity, in this way, is deployed to maintain the status quo and insulate our institutions from any sense of responsibility. "Beyond a reasonable doubt" makes sense for the courtroom, but why shouldn't our own default be to interrogate our institution and the norms and conventional practices within it?
Students point out that the topic of race and racial inequalities (among other topics) are largely omitted from the basic curriculum. Why is that the norm? It is true, as Randy emphasizes, that an individual professor's "decision . . . to focus on a seemingly dry, technical issue rather than . . . race might well reflect a justifiable pedagogical strategy," but it is also true that the racism baked into law has long been obscured by the sweet frosting of convention and technicalities. What have those "justifiable pedagogical strategies" done to stem the tide of mass incarceration, to name just one salient manifestation of our broken legal system? Is there no connection? Do we have no responsibility to consider the consequences of our legal system? Does it matter who is teaching the law, and what counts as a "justifiable pedagogical strategy?" Why is there no critical race theorist on our faculty? Why not several?
Students concerned about systemic racism face a quandary. In the absence of explicit animus their claims about racism go unheard because systemic racism is unseen by those in power, but when they point to examples of explicit racism, such as defacement of photos, hoping to use them as a foothold to discuss the broader problem of racism, they are cautioned to be careful and not to become "unglued" by an episode that may just be an "outlier." When they respond that it reflects broader systemic forms of racism, they find themselves back where they started, dismissed for failing particularize their allegations and provide evidence of explicit racism. If their understandable frustration manifests in anger, they are further discredited.
Randy encourages "[a]ctivists who are demanding that universities do more to advance racial justice . . . to be encouraged by what has transpired in recent weeks." His point is not exactly clear to us, but he seems to be suggesting that student activists should be more or less satisfied with those gains, as if a couple difficult, truncated conversations and the promise of modest reforms have somehow dismantled the profound structural problems that some students have been devoted to exposing and repairing.
Randy's assertion that students are actually engaged in "self-diminishment by displaying an excessive vulnerability to perceived and actual slights and insults," is similarly skewed. In fact, he may unwittingly be a source of their disempowerment. After all, students are not cowering in response to the racism they perceive. They are not asking for sympathy. They are standing up and insisting that they be heard; they are pointing out what others have denied; they are mobilizing even when their elders tell them not to. They are pushing against powerful institutional forces – including the amplified voices of our faculty and administration.
To recognize subtle forms of power and those who are harmed by it is hardly disempowering. Even identifying as a "victim" of unjust power is not inconsistent with asserting one's autonomy. In fact, locating the sources and causes of subordination can be a necessary step toward self-determination. We would never advise that Randy embrace "victim status," but neither would we characterize the students' complaints as self-diminishing.
The question is not whether these students risk undermining their own power; it is whether institutions like Harvard Law School will dare to take seriously systemic racism (and other forms of injustice), to scrutinize our practices and their effects, and to imagine and implement reforms that go beyond redecorated surfaces. Given this country's history, this institution's record, and the current state of our society, why haven't racism and other sources of profound injustice been at the core of our mission and the center of our curriculum?
Whether or not defaced photographs are the product of racial animus, there is so much more that Harvard Law School could do to acknowledge, understand, and resist the deep racism that shapes our institutions and our society. We could start that process by giving students the benefit of the doubt and by devoting ourselves to meaningful self-examination and, if necessary, reinvention, led by those who perceive a problem, not by those who still need convincing.

Hope word of mouth for 'An Action Hero' snowballs into more people coming to theatres: Ayushmann
PTI, Dec 5, 2022, 3:19 PM IST
Mumbai: Bollywood star Ayushmann Khurrana on Monday said the love from audiences for his latest film "An Action Hero" reinstates his belief in taking risks and he hopes the strong word of mouth for the movie prompts more people to visit theatres.
Released in theatres on December 2, the movie received mostly positive reviews from critics and viewers. However, the film got off to a slow start at the box office as it reportedly raised a paltry figure of Rs 5.99 crore.
In a joint statement with the film's producer Aanand L Rai, Ayushmann expressed gratitude towards fans for watching the movie, directed by debutant director Anirudh Iyer.
"We are humbled with all the positivity and the strong word of mouth surrounding 'An Action Hero'.
"We hope this snowballs into more and more people coming to the theatres. We have always wanted to tell stories differently and back projects that are fresh, that are unique & clutter-breaking. We are grateful for the love that's coming our way for 'An Action Hero'," the 38-year-old actor said in the statement.
Billed as a slick actioner with an offbeat satirical sense of humour, the film follows an artiste's journey, both in front and behind the lens.
In the movie, Khurrana plays Maanav, an action hero, who runs for his life as Bhura Solanki (Jaideep Ahlawat) wants to avenge the mysterious death of his brother.
Ayushmann, who described "An Action Hero" as a deviation from his past work, said he felt like a newcomer during the filming process.
"During the entire journey of 'An Action Hero' it really felt like we were the newest students of cinema and were all set to make something really exciting and new age," he said.
The actor, who teamed up for the third time with Rai for the film, said as a team, they are always inclined to cause creative disruption through their films. Their previous films were — "Shubh Mangal Saavdhan" and "Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan".
"From 'Shubh Mangal Saavdhan', 'Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan' and now 'An Action Hero', we have tried to give audiences something new to savour and discuss through our brand of cinema," Ayushmann said.
He said the positive response to "An Action Hero" encourages them to narrate unique stories.
"We are grateful for the love that's coming our way for 'An Action Hero'. It validates our stance of walking the road less travelled, to take risks and hopefully contribute to making our industry a more diverse storytelling entity.
"For us, 'An Action Hero' is a rare script, a film that was meant to push the envelope of creativity and we hope you continue giving it love and appreciation in the days to come. Keep loving and supporting!" Ayushmann added.
"An Action Hero" is produced by Colour Yellow Production and Bhushan Kumar and Krishan Kumar's T-Series.

NMC respiratory therapist lobbies for better health care in Washington, D.C.
Omaha, Neb. - Respiratory therapist Lisa Fuchs recently traveled to Washington, D.C., with two other respiratory therapists and patients to ask members of Congress to include respiratory therapists in any telehealth legislation introduced this year. Fuchs, MHA, RRT, CTTS, CHWC, is Program Director for Respiratory Care at Nebraska Methodist College in Omaha.
"Using telehealth services to remotely monitor and manage the clinical condition of the patient and intervene proactively will help avoid a costly hospital admission or re-admission," Fuchs said. "Moreover, increasing access to respiratory therapists as telehealth providers can decrease the burden on Medicare beneficiaries who do not have easy access to their expertise in medical facilities, clinics or physician offices."
With the mounting costs to manage chronic diseases and avoid expensive exacerbations, Fuchs met with Nebraska Congressman Don Bacon to discuss the value respiratory therapists bring to improving their patients' health outcomes and the benefits of including them as telehealth providers.
"We think the timing is right to improve patients' access to expanded telehealth services and in particular to the unique skills of respiratory therapists who are trained experts in the care of patients' chronic respiratory diseases," Fuchs said.
Congressional leaders also were asked to include language in the FY2018 Labor-HHS Appropriations Report that would task the Medicare program with an analysis of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease claims data that will help validate the respiratory therapists expertise in a variety of settings.
Fuchs is a member of the Political Advocacy Contact Team (PACT), a nationwide group of respiratory therapist and patients organized by the American Association for Respiratory Care (AARC) and the Nebraska Society for Respiratory Care to spearhead grassroots level advocacy efforts.
The American Association for Respiratory Care, headquartered in Dallas, is a professional association of respiratory therapists that focuses primarily on respiratory therapy education and research. The organization's goals are to ensure that respiratory patients receive safe and effective care from qualified professionals as well as supporting respiratory health care providers. Further information about the AARC and how to become a respiratory therapist is available at http://www.aarc.org/.
Nebraska Methodist College - the Josie Harper Campus, based in Omaha, has been teaching the meaning of care for 125 years and counting. An affiliate of Methodist Health System, NMC offers certificate, bachelor's, master's and doctoral degrees both on campus and online. Nebraska Methodist College is fully accredited by the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools.

CelebrityAccess Staff Writers Contact MePosted on 29 March, 2022, 06:25 PM EDT
(CelebrityAccess) — The legendary alt-rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers are set to become the latest band to receive their own dedicated channel on satellite broadcaster SiriusXM.
The Whole Lotta Red Hot channel will showcase music from the band's lengthy career, including both studio hits as well as selections from their extensive archive of live performances. The channel will also feature music personally selected by members of the band, including hits from the band's influences such as Fugazi, Iggy Pop and Dead Kennedys to funk and R&B from Prince, Stevie Wonder and Parliament Funkadelic.
The new channel will feature the band sharing insight and stories from four decades of albums and songs as well as hear a classic live concert from the band's archives each month, beginning with a never-before aired 2006 concert from The Forum in Inglewood, California, which will be broadcast on April 1st.
Along with the show on SiriusXM, the band will be featured live at the Apollo Theater in New York later this year as part of SiriusXM's Small Stage Series
"Our only goal is to get lost in the music. We (John, Anthony, Chad and Flea) spent thousands of hours, collectively and individually, honing our craft and showing up for one another, to make the best album we could. Our antennae attuned to the divine cosmos, we were just so damn grateful for the opportunity to be in a room together, and, once again, try to get better. Days, weeks and months spent listening to each other, composing, jamming freely, and arranging the fruit of those jams with great care and purpose. The sounds, rhythms, vibrations, words and melodies had us enrapt."
"We yearn to shine a light in the world, to uplift, connect, and bring people together. Each of the songs on our new album Unlimited Love, is a facet of us, reflecting our view of the universe. This is our life's mission. We work, focus, and prepare, so that when the biggest wave comes, we are ready to ride it. The ocean has gifted us a mighty wave and this record is the ride that is the sum of our lives. Thank you for listening, we hope you enjoy it and tune in to our new SiriusXM channel Whole Lotta Red Hot." – Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Whole Lotta Red Hot will launch on Friday, April 1 at 12:00 am ET on SiriusXM channel 315 and on the SXM App.

I met two special souls yesterday, bundles of boisterousness, hearts dipped in heaven with all the unutterable and non-describable beauty that is a kitten.
Billy and Teddy slept, played, bit (playfully) and climbed, then slept, soundly, on my lap. Such joy they impart just by being, being and only being themselves. The mystery of cats … by doing nothing, they can yet inspire.
Kittens are the promise of tomorrow, in their small bodies the wonder of life unfolds, and their quiet mieaw holds the wisdom of surrender to the silent rhythm of time.
Join them in their contentment; meditate to the symphony of purring.
May Billy and Teddy experience and enjoy the magic of life for many long long years. I hope to be part of the journey.

Israeli intelligence reportedly discovered Russian hack into U.S. classified documents
NEW YORK CITY (JTA) – Israeli intelligence discovered that Russian hackers were using antivirus software to steal classified information from the United States, The New York Times reported. The antivirus software is made by a Russian company, Kaspersky Lab, that is used by 400 million people worldwide, including officials at about two dozen American government agencies.
The discovery led the Department of Homeland Security in September to order all federal executive branch agencies to stop using Kaspersky products, giving agencies 90 days to remove the software.
Classified documents reportedly were stolen from a National Security Agency employee who had improperly stored them on his home computer, which used Kaspersky antivirus software. It is not known what other information was gleaned by the Russian operation, according to The Times.
The Wall Street Journal reported recently that Russian hackers had stolen classified materials from a contractor using the Kaspersky software on his home computer. But the role of Israeli intelligence in discovering the hack and the Russian hackers' use of Kaspersky software in a larger search for American classified information were not previously reported, according to The Times.
The Times reported that the National Security Agency, the White House, the Israeli Embassy and the Russian Embassy would not comment for its story. Kaspersky Lab denied any knowledge of or involvement in the Russian hacking.
The intelligence came from Israel's 2014 hack into Kaspersky's corporate systems, which was discovered by the company a year later and publicly reported, though it did not name Israel as the culprit. The company's report did state, however, that the program was similar to the Duqu virus, which allows the hacker to eavesdrop on conversations and steal electronic files.
Duqu was attributed to the inventors of Stuxnet, the computer worm that set back Iran's nuclear program by several months or years by affecting some of its computer systems and centrifuges used to enrich uranium after it was released in 2010. Stuxnet was reported to be a joint project of Israel and the U.S.
The Times reported that Israeli intelligence officers told the NSA that they uncovered evidence that the Russian government hackers were using the access to U.S. officials' computers through the Kaspersky antivirus software to search for American government classified programs and providing any information to Russian intelligence. Israeli intelligence gave the NSA evidence including screenshots and other documentation, the newspaper reported, citing unnamed sources.

Melaleuca lara is a plant in the myrtle family, Myrtaceae and is endemic to a small area on the west coast of Western Australia. It is similar to Melaleuca ciliosa with its hairy young leaves and heads of yellow flowers ageing to red but there are fewer flowers in each head and the leaves are generally smaller.

Description
Melaleuca lara is a shrub sometimes growing to  tall and wide with branchlets that have soft hairs at first but become glabrous with age. Its leaves are arranged alternately and are  long,  wide, flat, elliptical or egg-shaped and covered with short, soft hairs, especially when young. The oil glands are distinct.

The flowers are bright yellow fading to red, arranged in heads on the ends of branches which continue to grow after flowering and sometimes also in the upper leaf axils. The heads are up to  in diameter with 2 to 5 groups of flowers in threes. The petals are  long and fall off as the flower ages. There are five bundles of stamens around the flower, each with 9 to 13 stamens. Flowering occurs in early spring and is followed by fruit which are woody capsules,  long in loose clusters along the stem.

Taxonomy and naming
Melaleuca lara was first formally described in 1999 by Lyndley Craven in Australian Systematic Botany from a specimen near the Z Bend lookout on the Murchison River in the Kalbarri National Park. The specific epithet (lara) is derived from the Ancient Greek word laros meaning "agreeable", "pleasant" or "lovely" referring to the flowers of this plant species.

Distribution and habitat
Melaleuca lara occurs in the Kalbarri district in the Geraldton Sandplains biogeographic region. It grows in sand in heath on sandplains near river gorges.

Conservation status
Melaleuca lara is listed as "not threatened" by the Government of Western Australia Department of Parks and Wildlife.

Q: If $A+B+C=0$, then prove that the value of the determinant is $0$. I'll state the question from my textbook below:

If $A+B+C=0$, the prove that $\begin{vmatrix}1 & \cos C & \cos B \\ \cos C & 1 & \cos A \\ \cos B & \cos A & 1 \end{vmatrix} = 0$.

This is how I tried solving the problem:
$LHS = \begin{vmatrix}1 & \cos C & \cos B \\ \cos C & 1 & \cos A \\ \cos B & \cos A & 1 \end{vmatrix}$
$= 1(1- \cos^2 A) - \cos C (\cos C - \cos A \cos B) + \cos B (\cos A \cos C - \cos B)$
$= 1 + 2 \cos A \cos B \cos C - (\cos^2 A +\cos^2 B + \cos^2 C)$
I don't know how to proceed further. I tried using the fact that $A+B+C=0$ but it didn't lead to anything I could solve. I don't know where is it supposed to be used.
Also, I read a solution to this problem somewhere in which the term $(\cos^2 A +\cos^2 B + \cos^2 C)$ was replaced by $1 + 2 \cos A \cos B \cos C$ as $A+B+C=0$. Are these two terms equal for the given condition? Also, is there a way to prove the statement without using this fact?
Any help would be appreciated.

A: When at least one of $A,B$ or $C$ is not an integer multiple of $\pi$, the vector $(\sin A,\sin B,\sin C)$ is nonzero. However, as $A+B+C=0$, the sum-of-angle formula implies that
$$
\pmatrix{1&\cos C&\cos B \\ \cos C&1&\cos A\\ \cos B&\cos A& 1}
\pmatrix{\sin A\\ \sin B\\ \sin C}
=0
$$
and hence the matrix is singular.
In case all of $A,B,C$ are integer multiples of $\pi$, you may complete the proof by a continuity argument, or by noticing that the matrix must have at least two identical rows, because up to a permutation, $(\cos A,\cos B,\cos C)$ is either $(1,1,1)$ or $(1,-1,-1)$.

A: It's worth noting that we are dealing with a Gram determinant of three unit vectors in $3$-space. This determinant is $0$ if and only if the vectors are linearly dependent, that is, lying in the same plane. The condition $A+B+C=0$ ensures this.
It is also worth noting that the determinant always equals
$$4 \sin s \sin(s-A) \sin (s-B) \sin (s-C)$$
where $s= \frac{A+B+C}{2}$, so we get a necessary and sufficient condition for the determinant to be $0$, as above.

A: If one of the angles, say $A=0$, then two rows become identical and the determinant becomes zero.
Else we multiply the rows in order by $\sin A, \sin B, \sin C$ and we get
\begin{vmatrix}\sin A & \sin A\cos C & \sin A\cos B \\ \sin B\cos C & \sin B & \sin B\cos A \\ \sin C\cos B & \sin C\cos A & \sin C \end{vmatrix}
Now with $R_1 \rightarrow R_1+R_2+R_3$ we see for instance that $$a_{11} = \sin A +\sin B \cos C+\sin C \cos B = \sin A+\sin (B+C) = \sin A - \sin A =0$$
i.e. the first row becomes null and hence the determinant equals zero.

A: Using Prove that $\cos (A + B)\cos (A - B) = {\cos ^2}A - {\sin ^2}B$,
$$\cos^2A+\cos^2B+\cos^2C =1+\cos^2A-\sin^2B+\cos^2C$$
$$=1+\cos(A+B)\cos(A-B)+\cos^2C$$
$$=1-\cos C\cos(A-B)+\cos^2C\text{ as }\cos(A+B)=\cos(\pi-C)=?$$
$$=1-\cos C[\cos(A-B)-\cos C]$$
$\cos(A-B)-\cos C=\cos(A-B)+\cos(A+B)=?$

In this episode I address one of the most troubling videos I've seen in a long time regarding out-of-touch government bureaucracy.

See More ignoring a citizen at a public meeting is deeply troubling. Does President Trump deserve credit for defeating ISIS? Yes.

The air was rife (?) with rumor that the developer had sold two of its buildings in the Fort Point Channel.
Turns out, this rumor was true (are rumors ever not true? I mean, really).
… Instead, with the residential market weak, the owners took advantage of the healthy market for office and commercial space and sold 316 and 322 Summer St. for $17.8 million to Lincoln Property Co. last week.
Several other buildings, once slated for residential use, are now going to be offices.
Meaning the area will not become the 24-7 neighborhood people envisioned.
I still have high expectations for the neighborhood. I think it benefits from a great location, convenient to downtown and major modes of transportation (South Station commuter rail & MBTA, Route 93, Mass Turnpike) and close to the airport.
Maybe too "industrial" for some, but perfect for others.
As the article mentions, construction continues at 348-354 Congress Street, where Berkeley Investments is building the FP3 condo project.
This development should be done in the spring.
The sales team says they have 20% of units under contract.

An axially corrugated horn antenna with an elliptically shaped taper is proposed for satellite communication applications. This structure is a good candidate for the feed of reflectors and also for improving the electrical properties of reflector antennas. A tapering method is used to justify the horizontal location of the corrugation profile which improves the electrical performance of the presented antenna. The simulation results of a conventional axial corrugated horn antenna with a linear taper are compared to those of the proposed antenna. These results illustrate that the cross-polarization, side-lobe level and return loss of our antenna are improved by about 16dB, 4dB and 9dB, respectively. The axial corrugated horn antenna with an elliptical tapering function is simple and low-cost as compared to the other corrugated horn antennas such as scalar (vertically) corrugated horn and subsequently, it could be preferred in commercial applications.

your post as a comment to indiangirl's Auto Config???? problem, and notify you when a new solution is offered.
a little box flashes through my screen all the time that says auto config please wait.
I have tried to access the menu to change the setting of the auto config but nothing has worked so far.
Auto Config should (in theory) reposition the viewing area of the screen dependant on the resolution. So it fires up when the resolution your monitor is working at is different than the native one (1280x1024), if it's working in windows - set the resolution to 1280x1024 and it should work ok. right click on desktop>properties>settings p.s. also set the refresh rate to 60 hertz.
Had the same problem, and found a pretty ghetto workaround.
Found that when I held in the power button, the box went away. So after trying tape and a couple other things, I just pushed the button in and jammed the end of a bent-out paperclip into the space between the button and the case.
Seems to be working, maybe someone else can figure out what the root of the problem is.
My Acer LCD Monitor shows the , auto Configuration menu and is on a black screen.
How did the auto configuration came about? Try pressing the buttons before powering up. Maybe some of it are stuck.
If it gives you message about the resolution, set the computer to use native resolution of the monitor. You can change the resolution by right clicking on desktop and choosing "screen resolution".
Elke monitor heeft een menu-optie. Zoek met uw handleiding hoe u uw menu-opties voor uw specifieke model en daar toegang te krijgen is een optie om berichten of waarschuwingen weer te geven. U **** het uit daar.
Think I fixed it.. My monitor kept flashing autoconfig and shaking a little, so I went to control panel - clicked on system - clicked Hardware - clicked on device manager - clicked display adapters - and updated the driver. Re-booted computer..
So far so good... Fingers Crossed..
Acer x193w LCD Monitor repeatedly auto configures.
Starting on page 15 are the directions for the monitor controls. Page 17 indicates a "RESET" feture to Clear the Old-Statuses of "Auto-Configuration". There are quite a number of setting for this monitor.
Each monitor has a menu option. Find out with your manual how to access your menu options for your specific model and in there is an option to display messages or warnings. You can turn it off there.
Check your settings in "Power Options Properties".
Control panel/ power options/ advanced/ under power buttons make sure you have "shut down" when you press the power button on your computer.
I hope I am understanding your problem correctly. If not pls. explain what you mean by and when processing auto config. keeps flashing. Is there a black screen or a windows interface?


This is truly amazing. The Prophet (pbuh) made the Jews of Medina one "ummah," or community with the believers. This even though the Jews immediately, almost as soon as he arrived in the city, rejected him as Messenger of God (pbuh). The Prophet (pbuh) did not force them to become Muslim; he did not expel the Jews from Medina after they rejected him; he did not relegate them to a "second-class citizen" status. No. They were equal members of the city, one "community with the believers," with the freedom to practice their religion. At one time in history, Muslims and Jews were one nation under God. I lament the tension between Muslims and Jews both in America and around the world. It makes so much sense for the two faith communities to be very close to each other: we both worship the same God, the God of Abraham; we both honor and revere both Abraham and Moses; Moses and Abraham are both highly honored in the Qur'an, and they are mentioned by name in the Qur'an more than the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) himself; there are many stories of the Hebrew Prophets in the Qur'an; in fact, the story of Joseph as mentioned in the Bible and the Qur'an are strikingly similar. Like I said before, Muslims and Jews have so much more in common than in distinction, and it pains me to see so much tension between the two faith communities. For far too long, the Holy Land has been poisoned by the blood of the senseless loss of innocent lives. For far too long, Palestinians and Israelis have lost their lives in a vicious and senseless circle of violence. For far too long, the Holy Land has cried out from the pain and death she has to endure day after day after day. It should not be so. Lord God, the Most Holy Lord God on High! Please bring peace to the Holy Land. Please let the choking smoke of guns and bombs lift off the place we Muslims, Christians, and Jews hold sacred. Lord God, this is the Land You have blessed, please let it shine in the light of Your Glory, rather than be smothered in the blood of the innocent. My Most Precious Lord, please bring peace to the Holy Land, so that the constant glorification of Your Most Holy Name is no longer drowned out by the deafening sound of guns, missiles, and bombs exploding. In Your Most Holy Name, O Lord, I do ask these things. Amen.

Andy Hall case discussed at European Parliament
Lea Rankinen, Senior Vice President for Sustainability and CSR at SOK, visited the European Parliament in Strasbourg with Finnwatch researcher Andy Hall on 5 and 6 October 2016.
The purpose of the visit was to draw attention to human rights issues in Thailand and discuss Andy Hall's case at a European Parliament session.
Hall was found guilty in a court case brought by the pineapple juice producer Natural Fruit in Thailand. He was convicted of tarnishing the company's reputation, among other charges, after having revealed problems with the working conditions at the factory.
During their visit, Rankinen and Hall met with members of the European Parliament, as well as Cecilia Malmström, European Commissioner for Trade. In its resolution, the European Parliament found Hall's conviction to be unfortunate and expressed its concern about the legal process and its possible effects on the freedom of human rights work. In addition, the Parliament expressed its support for S Group's efforts to help Andy Hall.
Rankinen and Hall had been invited to visit the European Parliament by MEP Heidi Hautala.

Roz Savage
There is no better way to acquire advanced expertise on self-mastery, resilience, and stress management than to spend up to 5 months alone at sea on a 23-foot rowboat, thousands of miles from land and humanity, at the mercy of winds, waves and currents. Since 2005 Roz has become the world's foremost female ocean rower, having rowed – solo – across the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Oceans.
An Oxford-trained lawyer, Roz spent the first 11 years of her career working as a management consultant, braving nothing more intrepid than rush hour on the London Underground, before an environmental epiphany led to a radical personal transformation into a world class adventurer.
On the ocean Roz had to redefine her comfort zone on a daily basis, and reach deep into her inner sources of strength, self-discipline, and commitment to her goal.
She discovered the vital importance of keeping a cool head in life-endangering situations, to optimise her capacity for smart decision-making, accurate risk assessment and creative problem-solving. Throughout her voyages, her insightful and inspirational blog posts garnered an enthusiastic worldwide audience.
She now combines her self-taught life skills with principles from neuroscience, psychology, personal development and leadership theory, to inform and inspire corporate audiences. She has spoken to tens of thousands of people across six continents, including Google, eBay, National Geographic, the Royal Geographical Society, TED and TEDx, plus numerous schools, universities and corporations.
In 2010 she was named Adventurer of the Year by National Geographic. In 2012 she was selected from 3,000 candidates to be one of 16 World Fellows at Yale. In 2013 she was appointed an MBE (Member of the Order of the British Empire) in the Queen's Birthday Honours.

Q: bash pipes - I am trying to call script from c# I have a cygwin bash scripts that works:
#!/bin/sh
cd myc
cp Stats.txt Stats.txt.cpy;
cat Stats.txt.cpy | sort -n -k1 | gawk '{sum+=$2; print $0,sum}' > Stats.txt

I want to "call" it from C#:
string cmd="myscript.sh";
System.Diagnostics.Process proc = new System.Diagnostics.Process();

System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo psi =
    new System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo(@"C:\Cygwin\bin\bash.exe");
psi.Arguments = cmd;
psi.WorkingDirectory = "C:\\cygwin\\home\\Moon";
psi.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
psi.RedirectStandardError = true;
psi.UseShellExecute = false;
psi.CreateNoWindow = true;
proc.StartInfo = psi;

proc.Start();
string error = proc.StandardError.ReadToEnd();
string output = proc.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd();
this.textBox1.AppendText(error);
this.textBox1.AppendText(output);

It works fine from cygwin terminal BUT from C# I get:

Input file specified two times.

I suspect this is a pipes thing - can anyone help?

A: It was a path issue.
You need to set path in the script - otherwise it uses a different "non-cygwin" path and gets wrong commands.

Sec. Anthony Blinken Will Attend G7 Summit in London Before Traveling to Ukraine
by El American Newsroom
Secretary of State Antony Blinken will attend the G7 summit in London May 3-5 and then travel to Ukraine amid tensions with Russia in the area, the State Department said Friday.
In London, Blinken will discuss the climate and covid-19 crises, as well as human rights, gender equality and food security.
The head of U.S. diplomacy will meet with British Prime Minister Boris Johnson and his counterpart, Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab.
"Secretary Blinken has signaled that where the rules of international security and the global economy are written, the United States will be," State Department spokesman Ned Price said in a statement.
"We see the G7 as a critical forum in that effort," he added.
In addition to the G7 member countries (Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United States and the United Kingdom), the British Foreign Secretary has invited his colleagues from India, Australia, the Republic of Korea, South Africa, as well as representatives of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).
Following the G7 summit, Blinken will travel to Kiev (Ukraine) on May 5 and 6 where he will meet with the president, Volodymir Zelenski, on his first visit to the country and where he will "reaffirm the United States' unwavering support for Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity in the face of Russia's continued aggression."
"(The secretary of state) will also encourage continued progress on Ukraine's institutional reform agenda, especially anti-corruption measures, key to strengthening Ukrainian democratic institutions," the Washington note said.

No Entry – Seitensprung verboten! (Originaltitel: No Entry) ist eine Bollywood-Komödie aus dem Jahr 2005. Der Film war der erfolgreichste indische Film dieses Jahres.

Handlung
Kishan ist der Chefredaktor einer Zeitung und ein treuer Ehemann, dessen Familienglück durch die krankhafte Eifersucht seiner Frau Kaajal behindert wird. Sein Freund Prem ist im Gegensatz zu ihm ein Machotyp, der seine Frau Pooja auf Schritt und Tritt betrügt, besitzt aber Talent, Lügengeschichten zu erzählen, die die naive Pooja gerne glaubt. Er überredet Kishan, die Tänzerin Bobby aus dem Nachtclub "No Entry" kennenzulernen und mit ihr eine Affäre anzufangen. Bobby bekommt von Prem 200.000 Rupien, falls es ihr gelingt, Kishan zu verführen. Doch als Kishan und Bobby sich zum ersten Mal treffen, taucht Kaajal auf und bittet um Erklärung. Genau in dem Moment kommt Kishans Mitarbeiter Sunny vorbei, und Kishan fällt nichts Besseres ein, als Bobby für Sunnys Frau auszugeben. Da Sunny bald Sanjana heiraten muss, kommt es immer wieder zu Missverständnissen, wenn Kaajal ihn mit seiner Verlobten trifft, die sie nun für seine Liebhaberin hält. Als Sunny Sanjana heiratet, wird es Kaajal klar, dass Bobby nie seine Frau war. Nun müssen die beiden Kumpel ihren Frauen erklären, wer Bobby eigentlich ist. Dann bitten sie Prem um Hilfe. Prem erzählt den Frauen eine rührende Geschichte über sich und Bobby, die sogar glaubwürdig wäre, wenn Pooja sie nicht gehört hätte. Nun hat auch Prem ein Problem und muss das Vertrauen seiner Frau zurückgewinnen.

Anmerkungen
Der Film basiert auf dem Telugu-Film Pellam Oorelthe. Boney Kapoor kaufte die Rechte für diesen Film und passte die Geschichte an den nordindischen Publikumsgeschmack an.

Python RSS Reader

Writing a simple RSS Reader in Python

August 2017//

Mark Bala

            I wrote a simple RSS reader in Python. This reader monitors updates from (1) SGX Company Announcements and (2) Straits Times Singapore News. Check out the
	    Source Code.

This light weight reader floats on top of any open application, and can be dragged anywhere on the screen so as not to obscure anything important.

The reader checks for updates every 60 seconds.

It starts by pulling the 10 latest posts from each news source, and then scans the 5 latest posts every 60s to check for new posts.

At any one time, it maintains a list of the 10 most recent entries from each database (SGX and the Straits Times) and displays a random entry from this list for 8 seconds.

I used the "feedparser" python library to parse RSS data

I used standard libries such as 'tkinter' for a graphical user interface, 'sys' and 'random'.

             Issues, Improvements and Learning Points:

The 26 cantons that make up Switzerland set their public holidays independently – with the exception of 1 August, which is the only federal holiday. Furthermore, holidays can change depending on employers, and some holidays are specific to only a certain town or village. In general, the most reliable list of holidays for a given area will be found in a list of bank holidays, as nearly all shops and offices close during bank holidays.

Speculative Romance Author Regina Paul: Sneak Peek: Through a Dark Mirror by Regina Paul... #ebook #romance #fiction 404 ~ Page Not Found!
I love writing books that have Native American heroes and heroines. Most of you that have read my books know this already because it doesn't matter what the genre is 9 times out of 10 there's going to be a Native American main character. This is especially true with my Native American Paranormal Romantic Suspense Through a Dark Mirror. The hero is what my husband would call a "common Indian" meaning this is not someone with any particular special gifts or powers. And the heroine is a caucasian woman who has a past life as a Lakota medicine woman. Here's a bit of a sneak peek!
Summer Thompson grew up around Native Americans. She has great respect for Native American peoples and traditions. Because of that respect she has made it a point in her work as an antiques dealer to purchase and return sacred objects back to the tribes they came from when she finds them.
Hawk Kills Pretty Enemy, a successful Lakota business owner makes it a point of driving around in his tow truck looking for stranded drivers. He figures he has hit the jackpot with the pretty blonde behind the wheel of the Mercedes Benz sitting on the side of the road. When he discovers that she is the Summer Thompson that has returned so many sacred objects and artifacts back to the People, he is even more happy to help. But it does not take long in Summer's presence for Hawk to begin to suspect that Summer may be someone he has been searching for his whole life.
But when an artifact of great power comes into Summer's possession, and an ancient evil returns, will Summer remember what she needs to in time to save the man she is coming to love?
And here's the short excerpt and sneak peak!
The glow from her bedside lamp spilled into the living area, casting shadows on the walls and windows.
Her eyes glanced over to the bay windows in the south of the room. A chill raced up her spine when for a second, an image seemed to appear in the glass, and it was not a pleasant one. Whatever it was seemed to be nothing more than skin hanging off of a skeleton and glowing red eyes.
Summer put one hand to her throat, backing up. It can't be real! she thought. The figure almost seemed to loom from the glass and enter the room. Her throat closed on a scream, but then she blinked, and the image disappeared.
She sprinted to the different light switches around the room and turned them all on before she felt like she could walk up to the glass and look out. Nothing. The parking lot beneath her two-story apartment and shop was empty, but well lit as usual. No one was walking around, and her Benz appeared unharmed by the illusion she'd seen.
The vision on top of the dream and the strange phone call had rattled her. What does it all mean, if anything? Were the incidences even related?
For the first time, she was uncomfortable and didn't feel safe in her own home. Summer wrapped herself up in a hug, for once wishing that she didn't live alone.

Stephane, your car finished on the podium for both races of the opening round of the Asian Le Mans Sprint Cup in Sepang. It must have been satisfying for your team?
"Absolutely. Team AAI and Nexus Infinity did really well by finishing second in the first race and third in the second race respectively. Competition was strong, with a few Ligiers and what I consider as the Ginetta works team.
This comes after a difficult beginning for the ADESS LMP3. Your car really encountered difficulty during the latest Asian Le Mans Series. What's happened since? Did you have to significantly re-engineer the car?
"Not at all. We got the car homologated last year. We haven't made any major changes since. After we won the ACO LMP3 bid, we hurried to have the car ready to take on track in the Asian Le Mans Series. We could've waited and developped the car on our own until we felt it was ready to race competitively.
Can we expect to see an ADESS in the ELMS or in the VdeV this year?
In the meantime, we'll see one of your cars in the Road To Le Mans. What are your hopes for this race?
"We are extremely humble. We'll deliver a brand new car to PS Racing from Hong Kong just before the Road To Le Mans race. The entire team will discover the car. That also applies to their two gentleman drivers, who are also competing in the Ferrari Challenge.
ADESS will not be producing an LMP2 in 2017. Are you considering the construction of other prototypes besides the LMP3?
"Yes, we're considering two different options. On one hand, we're interested by the CN prototype segment, and, on the other, we are considering the possibility of producing an LMP1 chassis. There is a demand for prototypes that are not LMP2s or LMP1 Hybrid cars.

Originally published during the early part of the twentieth century, the Cambridge Manuals of Science and Literature were designed to provide concise introductions to a broad range of topics. They were written by experts for the general reader and combined a comprehensive approach to knowledge with an emphasis on accessibility. An Introduction to Experimental Psychology by Charles S. Myers was first published in 1911 and reissued as this third edition in 1914. The volume discusses the typical research themes and methods of observation in experimental psychology at the time of publication.
