Bushnell, Colin J.; Henniart, Guy
Local tame lifting for \(GL(N)\). I: Simple characters. (English) Zbl 0878.11042
Publ. Math., Inst. Hautes Étud. Sci. 83, 105-233 (1996).
Let \(K/F\) be a finite separable extension of nonarchimedean local fields and \(N\) a natural number. The base change conjecture of Langlands demands the existence of a process \(\pi\mapsto l_{K/F}(\pi)\) attaching to an irreducible smooth representation \(\pi\) of \(GL_N(F)\) a representation \(l_{K/F}(\pi)\) of the same sort of the group \(GL_N(K)\). As the authors show, the base change map \(l_{K/F}\) can be constructed for \(\text{char}(F)=0\) and \(K/F\) tamely ramified, we assume this from now on. The aim of the present paper is to give a first step towards presenting the base change in explicit local terms. The authors refer to the classification of the irreducible smooth representations of \(GL_N(F)\) by C. Bushnell and P. Kutzko [in: The admissible dual of \(GL(N)\) via compact open subgroups, Ann. Math. Stud. 129, Princeton University Press, Princeton (1993; Zbl 0787.22016)]. In this book it is shown that every supercuspidal representation contains a simple type. A simple type is a pair \((K,\tau)\) consisting of a compact open subgroup \(K\) of \(GL_N(F)\) and an irreducible representation \(\tau\) of \(K\), both of a very special kind. An admissible representation \(\pi\) of \(GL_N(F)\) is then said to contain the simple type \((K,\tau)\) if its restriction \(\pi|_K\) contains \(\tau\). In that case the \(K\)-isotype of \(\tau\) in \(\pi\) forms a finite-dimensional module under the corresponding Hecke algebra which is irreducible if and only if \(\pi\) is. It is shown that the corresponding Hecke algebra is naturally isomorphic to the Iwahori-Hecke algebra, which reduces the classification problem to the representations with Iwahori-fixed vector. The latter are classified by D. Kazhdan and G. Lusztig in their proof of the Deligne-Langlands conjecture [Invent. Math. 87, 153-215 (1987; Zbl 0613.22004)].
One main ingredient of the construction of simple types in Bushnell-Kutzko (loc. cit.) is a simple character, which is a special abelian character of some compact open subgroup. In the present paper the authors give a lifting construction of simple characters \(\theta_F\) of \(GL_N(F)\) to simple characters \(\theta_K\) of \(GL_N(K)\). The main theorem then is that an irreducible smooth representation \(\pi\) of \(GL_N(F)\) contains the simple character \(\theta_F\) if and only if its base change \(l_{K/F}(\pi)\) contains \(\theta_K\). To give a full explicit description of base change, it remains to extend this to a lift of simple types and then define an analogous lifting for split types, i.e. the counterpart to simple types, constructed by Bushnell and Kutzko to take care of those representations that do not contain a simple type.
The basic idea of the lifting construction is this: let \(F[\beta]/F\) be a finite extension. The algebra \(K\otimes_F F[\beta]\) will be a product of fields \(E_i=F[\beta_i]\). The attachment \(\beta\mapsto (\beta_i)_i\) then gives the basic scheme of the lifting process. The authors check that their lifting preserves conjugation and induction relations of simple characters as is to be required.
Although base change is only available in characteristic zero the constructions of this paper are valid in any characteristic. So, if some unsurprising facts together with base change become available in positive characteristic the results of this paper also will.

Author Larry McMurtry marries Ken Kesey's widow
Filed under Books at May 2011

When it comes to Texas literature, no one comes closer to royalty than Larry McMurtry. And on the day the world was watching Will and Kate's very public royal spectacle in London, McMurtry was quietly tying the knot here in Texas, with the widow of a fellow literary king.
Most people who live in McMurtry's hometown of Archer City — which inspired his novel and subsequent movie, The Last Picture Show — won't say anything on the record, but word is that the couple got married in a civil ceremony and that the no-longer-lonesome doves have left the area to enjoy their honeymoon.
So who's the lucky woman?
According to Karren Winter, the county clerk in Archer County, the bride is Norma Faye Kesey. She is the widow of Ken Kesey, author of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and other books. He died in 2001 at 66.
The bride is 76. McMurtry is 74. Winter confirmed that the couple married in Archer City on April 29.
Winter says that like most folks in Archer City (pop., 1,791), she knows the McMurtry family and thus knew that "Faye," as they call her, was Kesey's widow. Public records agree.
"They're truly happy, they're very sweet," Winter said Thursday. "It was really good to see Larry look so happy. They were just the sweetest couple coming in to get their marriage license."
McMurtry and Ken Kesey had connections beyond Jack Nicholson, who starred in movie versions of their novels (Cuckoo's Nest for Kesey, Terms of Endearment for McMurtry). As young writers, they became friends at Stanford University when they were co-recipients of a fellowship that allowed them to study under the great Wallace Stegner. McMurtry emerged from the program to produce his debut novel, Horseman, Pass By, which was published in 1961 and became the movie Hud, starring Paul Newman. He would later win the Pulitzer Prize for his novel Lonesome Dove.
Kesey debuted in 1962 with Cuckoo's Nest. He became a counterculture icon and the main character in Tom Wolfe's The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test — in which McMurtry and "Faye" are each mentioned frequently. According to published accounts, she was Kesey's high-school sweetheart, with whom he eloped in 1956. Wolfe describes her as having "long, sorrel-brown hair and is one of the prettiest, most beatific-looking women I ever saw."
McMurtry had married once before, in the 1950s.
Calls to McMurtry's friends, family members and writing partner Diana Ossana, with whom he shares an Oscar for the Brokeback Mountain screenplay, were either not returned or answered with polite no-comments.

Bird Cottage – Eva Meijer: a EuroLitNetwork review
25th October 2018 / David Hebblethwaite / 0 Comments
It has been a while, but I'm pleased to be back at the European Literature Network for this month's #RivetingReviews section. The book I'm reviewing is Bird Cottage by Eva Meijer (translated from the Dutch by Antoinette Fawcett). It's a novel about the life of a historical figure who was unknown to me: Gwendolen (Len) Howard, a concert violinist who, aged 40,changed her life and moved to a Sussex cottage to study the birds in her garden. She published two books, and her ideas were ahead of her time, but her work was not taken seriously by the scientific establishment.
Bird Cottage is a fascinating story; click here to read my review in full.

Some reviews elsewhere
16th December 2016 / David Hebblethwaite / 1 Comment
I haven't been posting links to my external reviews lately, so here's a round-up of the most recent four: all books that are worth your time.
The Winterlings by Cristina Sánchez-Andrade (tr. Samuel Rutter). Twenty-five years after being evacuated to England, two sisters return to the Galician parish of their childhood. The place is otherworldly to them, but they also have a glamour of their own – and so mystery encroaches on the reader from all sides. Reviewed for European Literature Network.
Beast by Paul Kingsnorth. Second part of the thematic trilogy that began with The Wake. This volume is set in the present day, and focuses on an Englishman in search of his place in the landscape. A strange creature haunts the corner of his eye, and his language grows more primal as he heads further into hallucination. Reviewed for Shiny New Books.
The Deep Sea Diver's Syndrome by Serge Brussolo (tr. Edward Gauvin). A tantalising slice of weirdness set in a reality where art is retrieved from the depths of dreams. One man believes that the dream realm has its own objective existence – and he'll risk his very self to prove it. Reviewed for Strange Horizons.
The Tobacconist by Robert Seethaler (tr. Charlotte Collins). A new novel in English from the author of A Whole Life. The tale of a young man who becomes a tobacconist's apprentice in 1930s Vienna and strikes up a friendship with Sigmund Freud. Love begins to stir, just as the shadow of the Nazis grows. Reviewed for European Literature Network.
Fragile Travelers by Jovanka Živanović: a European Literature Network review
25th July 2016 / David Hebblethwaite / 0 Comments
I've reviewed a Serbian novel for Euro Lit Network this month: Jovanka Živanović's Fragile Travelers, translated by Jovanka Kalaba and published by Dalkey Archive. It is the story of a man who disappears from the real world and finds himself lost in the dreams of a woman he knows. There's an interesting mix of twisting sentences, absurd imagery, and a sense of the characters' disconnection from the world. Find out more by reading my review.

The Bickford Fuse by Andrey Kurkov: a European Literature Network review
24th May 2016 / David Hebblethwaite / 4 Comments
I have a new review up at the European Literature Network this month: Andrey Kurkov's The Bickford Fuse (translated from the Russian by Boris Dralyuk). It's a journey through an absurd, askew version of the USSR under Khrushchev. We follow a shipwrecked sailor as he wanders the land through a series of strange encounters, all the while trailing the safety fuse with which he could blow it all up.
I enjoyed The Bickford Fuse, and the way it creates its own little world. Read my review to find out more.

Mend the Living by Maylis de Kerangal: a European Literature Network review
18th February 2016 / David Hebblethwaite / 3 Comments
This week, I made my debut as a reviewer for the European Literature Network website. The book I'm reviewing is Maylis de Kerangal's second novel to appear in English, Mend the Living (translated from the French by Jessica Moore; the US market has a different translation, Sam Taylor's The Heart).
I could tell you that Mend the Living is the story of a heart transplant, and that would be true; but it wouldn't prepare you for the extraordinary, kaleidoscopic sentences:
What it is, Simon Limbeau's heart, this human heart, from the moment of birth when its cadence accelerated while other hearts outside were accelerating too, hailing the event, no one really knows; what it is, this heart, what has made it leap, swell, sicken, waltz light as a feather or weigh heavy as a stone, what has stunned it, what has made it melt – love; what it is, Simon Limbeau's heart, what it has filtered, recorded, archived, black box of a twenty-year-old body – only a moving image created by ultrasound could echo it, could show the joy that dilates and the sorrow that constricts…
Already in this opening fragment, the line between the medical and emotional meanings of the human heart is being blurred, and so Mend the Living continues. I wouldn't be at all surprised to find this novel in contention for the Man Booker International Prize; read my review to find out why.
Now read on…
Stu has a good review of Mend the Living at Winstonsdad's Blog; and there's an interesting conversation between de Kerangal and Moore over at BOMB Magazine.

You are 22, about to finish your graduation and woof, you are ready to sell yourself in the "marriage market". You have to look for people who can certify you as a "good wife and an even better daughter-in-law". And then you live happily ever after.
Life begins after marriage they say; you put the first 22 years of your life studying so you would naturally want to utilize that and work as well. However, people don't expect you to do so; they can't bare the thought of you spending 3-4 years of your life being financially independent.
So now begins the drama. This age from 22 to 28; that's where all the drama happens. You are at "that age" now. You now need to get married and reproduce: the only reason why you even exist, your ultimate goal.
It almost seems as if everyone around you is alive only to hold your cute little child in their arms. Your biological child.
They expect you to spend the first 22 years of your life studying and the next 22 adjusting to a person you didn't choose, showing off expensive clothes and jewelry, flaunting rich spouses' family, doing household chores, giving up on your dreams and living up someone else's.
So if you go by design; properly, religiously and obediently, you will be free to reflect upon your life post 50; the life that you've already wasted. Then, you have to get your kids married, pressurize your grandkids to get married and the cycle begins again.
Now you finally have a lot of time to think about that wish list and fulfil all your wishes but now, it's too late.
So from now on, I will make sure that wish list gets longer and longer, and that I get stronger to fight with the society by each passing day so that when I look back at my life one fine day, I won't have any regrets. And you know what?
In this process, you might find someone who has the same idea of life as you, and that's when the real magic happens. Go make all those wishes come true.
Share this story because the idea of choice is very important. Everyone has the right to choose the path they wish to follow.
I feel so sorry for myself that I fell for such a dire cheater.

May Fourth Movement

LAST MODIFIED: 25 February 2014
The May Fourth Movement of 1919 was a nationalist mass movement, considered by many as one of the most important events in Chinese history. During the May Fourth era (1915–1925), Chinese intellectuals waged the New Culture Movement, questioning the relevance and validity of the Confucian tradition while searching for new ideas from abroad. Marxism and Communism—together with liberalism, anarchism, pragmatism, Bergsonism, etc.—entered China. Thanks to the direct assistance of the Communist International, the Chinese Communist Party was founded in 1921. Several decades later, the Party founded the People's Republic of China (PRC) in 1949. Given its multifarious and multileveled significance, the May Fourth Movement sparked interest among scholars of different politico-cultural backgrounds, almost immediately from its occurrence into the early 21st century. As such, it has generated a large body of literature, with divergent views, positions, and opinions. From the 1920s to the mid-1930s, most scholars evaluated the May Fourth Movement positively, hailing it as a new age in Chinese history. This evaluation has still been held by PRC scholars who emphasize how the May Fourth Movement helped promote Communism in the country. For a long time, the May Fourth Movement was (and still is in some texts) considered a watershed moment among PRC educators by which they divided the course of Chinese history in modern times into two subperiods: "modern history" or jindaishi 近代史 (1840–1919) and "contemporary history" or xiandaishi 现代史 (1919–present). By comparison, non-Marxist scholars appeared slightly less enthusiastic about the historical role of the movement, although many of them still recognized its importance in reshaping the Chinese attitude toward their tradition. By downplaying the May Fourth's connection with Communism, non-Marxist scholars focused on how the New Culture Movement helped advance Chinese modernity in that era. In more recent years, thanks to the rising interest in sociocultural history, some historians working in Western academies attempt to question—or "decenter"—the May Fourth's epochal importance in presaging the development of modern Chinese history. In the Chinese-speaking world, scholars have made similar attempts to explore the social impacts of the May Fourth Movement. However, few have shed doubts about its historical significance. The literature on the May Fourth Movement is still expanding at a rapid pace, thanks to the number of works generated at many conferences, symposiums, and workshops held on major anniversaries of the May Fourth Movement across the Taiwan Strait.
A number of studies have been published in English, Chinese, and Japanese on the May Fourth Movement. In the English-speaking world, Chow 1960 remains a useful introduction. With a balanced approach, it is comprehensive, well organized, and narrated. As its title indicates, the author fully recognizes the importance of the May Fourth Movement in helping to create a new culture in modern China. Lin 1979 offers the first modification of the iconoclastic spirit supposedly enveloping the May Fourth era. The author instead argues that, although iconoclastic on first look, the New Culture characterizing the age had methodological and cultural elements from China's past. Schwarcz 1986 discusses the dual task of the May Fourth intellectuals—cultural enlightenment and national salvation—and recognizes the accomplishments of the May Fourth intellectuals while at the same time registers their frustrations and failures. Mitter 2004 also recognizes the historical significance of the movement. Indeed, the author considers it the beginning of Chinese modernity and, from a comparative perspective, examines how this modernization project, politically, culturally, and socially, characterized the history of 20th-century Chinese history. By contrast, Chow, et al. 2008 challenges the central attention that the May Fourth Movement has received over the past century and contends that many issues discussed in the movement had emerged before and that these issues were far from prevailing in, and being characteristics of, the age. Thus, the authors argues the need to decenter the movement when studying the development of modern Chinese history. Chinese publications on the May Fourth Movement are numerous. Hua 1954 was an early attempt to emphasize and establish the May Fourth's connection with the Communist movement. Peng 1998, which has had several earlier editions, more or less follows the same route, only with a much broader coverage. Less ideological, Ding and Ma 1999 is useful in offering many valuable historical photos and images. Zhang 2009 is a new synthesis of Chinese scholarship on the May Fourth Movement. It fails, however, to incorporate studies on the subject by overseas scholars. Led by Hazama Naoki of Kyoto University, Japanese scholars launched the "Studies of the May Fourth Movement," resulting in a series of publications from the 1970s to the 1990s. Some works (Kataoka 1982 cited under In Cities and Countries outside Beijing, and others) deal directly with the movement, whereas others (Mori 1982, cited under History) cover related subjects in the May Fourth era.
Chow, Kai-wing, Tze-ki Hon, Hung-yok Ip, and Don C. Price, eds. Beyond the May Fourth Paradigm: In Search of Chinese Modernity. Lanham, MD: Lexington, 2008.
An anthology derived from the papers delivered at two symposiums, this book makes a passionate as well as a polemical call for scholars to look beyond the May Fourth Movement in studying modern Chinese history. Refuting the long-held belief that the movement amounted to an epochal event, the book urges readers to reconsider its supposed importance in shaping the course of history.
Chow, Tse-tsung. The May Fourth Movement: Intellectual Revolution in Modern China. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1960.
Although published many decades ago, this overview of the May Fourth Movement remains a useful study in English. It defines the movement both as a political event and an "intellectual revolution" and organizes its content accordingly in two parts. Its thesis remains influential, although later scholars have critiqued the author's high opinion of the New Culture supposedly created in the era.
Ding Shouhe 丁守和, and Ma Yong 马勇, eds. Wusi tushi 五四图史. Shenyang, China: Liaohai chubanshe, 1999.
English title: The May Fourth: An Illustrated History. In nine chapters, this book contains historical photos and images in the May Fourth era, accompanied with captions and textual explanations.
Hua Gang 华岗. Wusi yundongshi 五四运动史. Shanghai: Huadong renmin chubanshe, 1954.
One of the earliest attempts by the Chinese communists to interpret the May Fourth Movement from their ideology. Although only 168 pages long in its revised edition, it was a seminal text in that it argued that the May Fourth Movement was led by Li Dazhao and other Communist leaders, rather than by Hu Shi and other bourgeois intellectuals.
Lin, Yü-sheng. Crisis of Chinese Consciousness: Radical Antitraditionalism in the May Fourth Era. Madison: University of Wisconsin Press, 1979.
An important book in modifying the accepted thesis about the May Fourth Movement as a new era of Chinese cultural development. By studying Chen Duxiu, Hu Shi, and Lu Xun, three unquestionable leaders in the movement, Lin argues that their harsh criticism of Chinese tradition, and Confucianism in particular, was paradoxically a reflection of the traditional way of Chinese thinking.
Mitter, Rana. A Bitter Revolution: China's Struggle with the Modern World. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2004.
From a global perspective, this book amounts to a recent and meaningful attempt to mark the May Fourth Movement as the beginning of a new era in Chinese history. Through his engaging narrative, the author analyzes how the movement became a historic endeavor by the modern Chinese to reshape, with successes and failures, the development of their country's history throughout the 20th century.
Peng Ming 彭明. Wusi yundongshi 五四运动史. Rev. ed. Beijing: Renmin chubanshe, 1998.
English title: A History of the May Fourth Movement. Peng is well regarded as an authority on the May Fourth Movement in the PRC. With twenty chapters, the book is a comprehensive study of the movement and the entire May Fourth era. It describes, in a triumphant overtone, its development in two phases, first focusing on the movement's connection with the rise of Communism, utopian socialism, anarchism, and women's liberation and then its repercussions and developments in other cities.
Schwarcz, Vera. The Chinese Enlightenment: Intellectuals and the Legacy of the May Fourth Movement of 1919. Berkeley: University of California Press, 1986.
A study of the May Fourth intellectuals, both the teachers and the students, with a focus on their roles in China's modernization. The author thinks that, as a nationalist movement, the May Fourth Movement introduced modernity into China; hence, it was an Enlightenment in Chinese history. However, the movement was also incomplete in that the task of national salvation, in the wake of Japan's occupation of Manchuria, overwhelmed the need for cultural renewal.
Zhang Dewang 张德旺. Xinbian wusi yundongshi 新编五四运动史. Harbin, China: Heilongjiang renmin chubanshe, 2009.
A synthesis of new Chinese scholarship (only PRC) on the subject, with an introduction that discusses the historiography of the May Fourth Movement. The book is comprehensive in coverage, dealing not only with how the movement started in Beijing but also how it spread to other cities. It also discusses the historiography of the May Fourth Movement in its introduction. It discusses various schools of thoughts in the era, not only Marxism but also Western thoughts and the anti-New Culture school in publications, such as the Critical Review.

Accordion Band Bandleader Banjo Bass Blues-rock British Chicago Cornet Delta Divas Drums Fiddle Film-maker Guitar Harp Inventor Jug Keyboards Label Owner Mandolin Media Memphis New Orleans New York Piano Piedmont R&B Record Production Rock 'n' Blues Sax Singer Songwriter St. Louis Swamp Texas Trombone Trumpet Ukelele Violin Vocals Washboard West Coast Zydeco
Tony Joe White is a great singer/songwriter who has penned several classic tunes for big R&B, Soul and Country stars, and his deeply soulful voice took one of his own recordings high in the singles chart. He was one of the first artists to bring electric Swamp Blues to Europe, and his later work has included collaborations with other renowned singers and guitarists.
In 1943, Tony Joe White was born into a large, part-Cherokee family on a cotton farm near Oak Grove LA. His big brother introduced him to the records of Lightnin' Hopkins and taught him some Blues guitar, but the sounds of Cajun, Zydeco and Swamp Blues were always in the air. He played guitar at school dances and graduated to playing in nightclubs, and when he was 20, he formed 'Tony White and his Combo' which played a six-night-a-week residency at a Texas club that lasted for eight months!
In 1967, Tony signed for Monument Records in Nashville, and they released several singles including his song 'Polk Salad Annie', which reached the Billboard Top Ten and was a big hit for Elvis too. Tony's first album 'Black and White' was released in 1969 and more singles got him noticed in a wider market as he toured extensively in The States and Europe. In 1973 he took a major acting role as 'Cassio' in the film 'Catch My Soul', a rock-musical adaptation of 'Othello', Shakespeare's tale of racism and revenge. Tony wrote a lot of the music for this 'rock opera', but the film was a commercial failure, with the soundtrack as its only redeeming feature. Later in 1973, Tony took part in the marathon three-day Memphis session that produced Jerry Lee Lewis's 'Southern Roots' album, along with Carl Perkins, the original MGs and the Memphis Horns.
Tony Joe's 'Polk Salad Annie';
Further solo success evaded Tony's swamp-rock sound, and he stopped performing to concentrate on songwriting. Tony had already written the terrific 'Rainy Night in Georgia', which was recorded by all kinds of singers, and other hit singles for Dusty Springfield, Hank Williams Jr. and two more for Elvis, 'For Ol' Times Sake' and 'Got a Thing About You, Baby'. In 1989 he wrote four songs, including the title track, on Tina Turner's album 'Foreign Affair' and also her worldwide hit single 'Steamy Windows'. This signalled a return to the studio for Tony with his 1991 album 'Closer to the Truth', leading to a lot of touring in The States and Europe, including the Montreux Festival in 1992.
Tony Joe White Discography
This is a great value, 20 track compilation giving a taste of TJW's long and productive career, and it shows why people called him 'The Swamp Fox'!
BEST OF TONY JOE WHITE
Since then, Tony has continued to tour and record regularly, issuing the critically acclaimed album 'The Beginning' in 2001 on his own label, two excellent live albums, and 'Heroines' where he duetted with several female artists. His 2006 album 'Uncovered' featured collaborations with Eric Clapton, Mark Knopfler and JJ Cale. Tony has released over 30 albums in his long career and continues to record on his own Swamp Records label, the latest being 'The Shine' in 2010.

Transition was a born from a desire to give poetic form to inner chaos. Thirty two poems trace my path from the child who lost her roots to the woman who retrieved them from within herself. These poems have been framed with an introduction by Wallis Wilde Menozzi, a cosmopolitan poet, who generously held out her hand to guide me.
Transition is available from Swiss bookshops or may be purchased directly from me (joann@joannrasch.com).

Digging Deeper: Can the IFC's Green Equity Strategy Help End Indonesia's Dirty Coal Mines?
This report from Bank Information Centre Europe, Inclusive Development International, and JATAM Indonesia exposes the World Bank's financing of some of Indonesia's most destructive coal mining companies, despite instituting a virtual ban on coal financing in 2013.
This report from Inclusive Development International, Bank Information Center Europe, and Philippine Movement for Climate Justice, highlights the expansion of coal power in the Philippines, funded by the IFC.
This report from Bank Information Center Europe and Inclusive Development International argues that the AIIB has an opportunity to assume leadership amongst the MDBs in promoting low carbon development. It provides recommendations on how the AIIB can live up to its promises to be "green" and to its stated commitment to the Paris Agreement and the Sustainable Development Goals.
This report from Oil Change International assesses the contribution of 4 MDBs to energy access between 2014 and 2017 and finds that whist the majority of energy access finance is being channelled to countries with the largest access gaps, MDBs are not channelling enough of their energy access finance to energy access for the poorest people, or prioritising energy access sufficiently.
Coming out of the dark. Is the IFC investing in a fossil free future?
This report from Bank Information Center Europe and Centre for Research on Multinational Corporations analyses whether the IFC has reduced its investments in higher-risk FIs.
At the World Bank Group meetings this year, we call on them to further step-up and implement existing commitments by scaling up energy access finance, fully implementing existing commitments around carbon pricing and phasing out upstream oil and gas.
This report from Bank Information Center Europe, Centre for Research on Multinational Corporations, and Inclusive Development International looks at the recent AIIB investment in the IFC Emerging Asia Fund - a financial intermediary - and its sub-investment in the Shwe Taung Cement Company in Myanmar towards the expansion of a cement plant and associated coal mine.
This document by the Swedish Society for Nature Conservation and BIC Europe examines the degree to which the WBG's Climate Change Action Plan (CCAP) effectively addresses the dual objective of increasing energy access for the poor while meeting the goals of the Paris Climate Agreement.
This report by Oil Change International, Friends of the Earth U.S., and WWF's European Policy Office reveals how export credit agencies around the world are funding climate disaster by financing over $32 billion dollars each year in coal, oil, and gas projects.
This report from Inclusive Development International, Bank Information Center Europe, and Center for Financial Accountability highlights the role of the World Bank and international investors in financing the Rampal Power Plant, and highlights the significant risks associated with this project.
This report by Oil Change International, Friends of the Earth US and WWF highlights the role that G20 countries' Export Credit Agencies are playing in financing oil and gas projects, and recommends that Export Credit Agencies improve disclosure of fossil fuel related transactions and phase out support for fossil fuels by 2020.
A report by Both ENDS concludes that the Dutch Export credit agency Atradius DSB, which provides export insurances on behalf of the Dutch state, insured fossil fuel-related projects with a total value of € 7.3 billion in the period 2012-2015. This is two-thirds of its total insured value for that same period.
This paper from the Swedish Society for Nature Conservation and BIC Europe examines the approach put forward in the WBG's Energy Directions Paper (ED Paper) to determine if more could be done by the WBG to improve progress towards the SEforAll goals.
This report by Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) indicates that countries are still financing more coal than renewables projects abroad. Some progress has been made in shifting flows away from dirty energy like coal and into clean energy projects like solar and wind, but more needs to be done.
This report from Inclusive Development International demonstrates how the IFC is funding coal through support for commercial banks and private equity funds. According to this research, IFC-supported financial institutions have funded at least 41 new coal projects – either the facilities directly or the companies that own them – since the World Bank announced its coal ban in 2013.

The session, organised and moderated by Dr Cisse Kane (President of the African Civil Society on the Information Society (ACSIC)), aimed to look into the state of ICTs in Africa, with regards to the digital economy. Different speakers discussed the benefits, losses and strategies, to help the continent benefit from the dividends of digitalisation.
The first speaker, Mr Emery Okundji Ndjovu (ICT Minister, Democratic Republic of Congo) focused his remarks on presenting the ICT landscape in DRC and the importance that ICTs have in the development of the country, being its second source of income after mining.
Okundji Ndjovu mentioned that his government is doing its best to develop the sector. As an example, he mentioned the national backbone project which is already in its second phase. The third phase will be starting soon with the support of the World Bank to use optic fiber to connect the country and grow connectivity.
In the area of legislation, his ministry has just sent two bills to parliament for approval, one on telecommunications and ICT, and the other on e-commerce. Okundji Ndjovu recognises that there are a lot of challenges, such as in educating people about why and how they should use technologies and integrate them in their daily work.
Do these companies have an international e-payment system? To that, she said that in most African countries, this is not yet available.
Are they able to deliver their products cross-border? On that, she said that many SMEs do not do this by themselves; they use specialised services such as UPS and DHL. Moreover, 63% of their respondents outsource the clearance of customs procedures.
What happens after sales? Are customers happy? Do businesses have a way to ensure their customers are happy with the service? On this, she concluded that accountability is needed across the whole process as described above.
In finishing, Jansen recognised that challenges to e-commerce are faced not only in Africa, they are everywhere. So many entrepreneurs do not know how to put their services online, hence the need for education in this area.
The need for governments to create an environment that will convince and attract investors, and they should be ready to liberalise some sectors of their economy that have the potential to support the digital economy.
Access to power, energy. Countries in Africa may have infrastructure but there is the issue of electricity to make them work.
Quality of service is another challenge that needs to be worked on, in order to boost the digital economy in many African countries, especially for e-commerce start-ups.
Soumaila concluded that the Ministry of ICT is not the only sector that should be considered responsible for the digital economy, but that all other sectors should be involved in building the national strategy such as the Ministry of transport, energy, agriculture, etc.
The next speaker, Mr Mactar Seck (United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA)), drawing from the previous speakers, was of the impression that the digital economy works in Africa. He said that a lot of jobs have been created and a lot of innovations such as mobile money, which is widely spread across the continent, and that the number of start-ups being created by young people across the continent are considerable.
Internet penetration rate in Africa which is at 29% (in 2016) while it is 86% in Europe and 33% in South Asia.
Digital divide between men and women on the Internet as well as between cities and rural areas.
A need for capacity building programmes because if no one is educated in ICT, they will not be able to embrace it.
Having stable governments that will attract investors. He said that there is a need to increase public-private partnerships across Africa. Rwanda, Senegal, and Nigeria are good examples of countries in which investors feel their investments are secured.
Support local innovation especially those driven by young people, those creating solutions to local problems through technology and countries such as Rwanda and Tunisia are again good examples mentioned.
The next speaker, Mr Verengai Mabikai (Senior Policy Advisor for Africa, ISOC), recognised that there is progress in Africa's digital economy thanks to the adoption of the Internet. He believes that the lack of content in local languages is inhibiting further progress because, if people cannot understand the language that the content is in, it cannot benefit them.
As part of his finishing remarks, he mentioned some initiatives that the Internet Society is involved in across Africa, such as the setting up of Internet Exchange Points (IXPs) which are very important to grow connectivity in Africa and contribute to the creation of infrastructure in several African countries.
The last speaker, Mr James Zhan (Director, Investment Division, UNCTAD) spoke about the need to attract investments in Africa, which is key to supporting the African digital economy. Many African countries have developed their ICT strategy plans, but close to half of them fail to give more details on their investments needs. Zhan said that these strategies do not make it clear what type of investments they need, which types of partnerships they are looking for, and in which specific sectors they need investments in. Many of them only mention that they are looking for investment in infrastructure and forget other sectors such as e-commerce, e-health, etc.

Russia Accuses Hunter Biden, CDC and George Soros Foundation of Funding Pentagon's Biological Program in Ukraine
Hunter Biden's firm Rosemont Seneca provided capital for the firms behind the creation of Biolabs in Ukraine.
The Gateway Pundit broke this news earlier this month.
The US State Department admitted there were dangerous US-funded Biolabs in Ukraine during senate testimony earlier this month. Then on Wednesday the Biden regime backtracked and insisted there were no US-funded Biolabs in Ukraine.
Why the sudden confusing messaging from the Biden gang? Especially when there are documents that prove the US was funding several of the Biolabs they set up in Ukraine to study potentially dangerous pathogens.
It may be because Hunter Biden's firm Rosemont Seneca was funding the firms involved in the building of these labs in Ukraine and they felt this was not something they wanted the American people to know.
InfoWars put together an excellent article with connections between Hunter Biden and the firm Metabiota, which was involved in the creation of Biolabs in Ukraine.
The Gateway Pundit identified through the Wayback Machine that Rosemont Seneca provided capital (invested in) Metabiota as noted on the firm's website back in 2014.
It is listed as "Our Team's Investments" on the Rosemont Senaca webpage.
We also located a number of documents from the Wayback Machine (meaning they have been since deleted off the Internet) that show the Department of Defense investing in the creation of Biolabs in Ukraine with the help of firm Black & Veatch.
Here is a sample of one of the documents located. (We've located nearly a dozen of these documents.)
Kiev Ivm Fact Sheet Eng2 by Jim Hoft on Scribd
Metabiota publicized its relationship with Black & Veach in 2018:
Today, Metabiota, the pioneer in epidemic risk modeling, announced it has been awarded a subcontract from Black & Veatch (B&V) to support the U.S. Defense Threat Reduction Agency's (DTRA) Cooperative Biological Engagement Program (CBEP) in Iraq under the Biological Threat Reduction Integrating Contract (BTRIC). Metabiota has also partnered with B&V on DTRA's recently awarded Cooperative Threat Reduction Integrating Contract (CTRIC) III with an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) contract ceiling of $970M.
Now this…
Russian media on Thursday also accused Hunter Biden of funding the Ukrainian biolabs. The Russians have connected Hunter and the funding of the Ukrainian biolabs.
Insider Paper reported:
Russia said on Thursday that the Rosemont Seneca investment fund, led by Hunter Biden, the son of US President Joe Biden, is funding the Pentagon's military biological programme in Ukraine, The Telegraph reported.
US President Joe Biden must explain his son Hunter's involvement in the operation of biological laboratories in Ukraine, Russia's State Duma speaker, Vyacheslav Volodin, said on Thursday on his Telegram channel, TASS reported.
"The incoming materials allow us to trace the scheme of interaction between US government agencies and Ukrainian biological objects. Attention is drawn to the involvement in the financing of these activities of structures close to the current US leadership, in particular the Rosemont Seneca investment fund, which is headed by Hunter Biden," said Lt General Igor Kirillov, head of the radiation, chemical and biological defence forces of the Russian Armed Forces.
The Pentagon programme is also financially supported by the US Agency for International Development (USAID), the George Soros Foundation, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Kirillov said.
Kirillov claimed that one of the scientific curators of the Pentagon's military biological programme in Ukraine was the Los Alamos nuclear centre, which developed the first American atomic bomb.
The post Russia Accuses Hunter Biden, CDC and George Soros Foundation of Funding Pentagon's Biological Program in Ukraine appeared first on The Gateway Pundit.

Q: Sharing data amongst android applications running in many device I need to design an android model so that I could share some data amongst all users using my applications . I dont want to use push notification cause these sharing of data will happen too often, say every 15-20 second. Can i use HTTP post or something else to send data from one application to another.

A: I think, the better solution is to implement a server, that would store the actual data and share it will all devices. This kind of architecture is easier to implement and to manage.

A: You'll need a server which will maintain all the data. Let your apps sync to this server, or let them open a socket to your server to retrieve the information immediately

Q: Box dimension of the set of Pisot numbers? A Pisot number is an algebraic integer bigger than $1$ with all of its Galois conjugates having modulus less than $1$.  The set of Pisot numbers is known to be countably infinite and is not dense in $(1,\infty)$.  What is the box dimension of the set of Pisot numbers?  I have been unable to find anything in the literature that would answer this, but I wouldn't be surprised if it follows directly from something that's already known.

A: The set $\mathcal P$ of all Pisot numbers is known to be closed (Salem). Its limit points $\mathcal P'$ are also known in $(1,2)$ (Talmoudi). The smallest element of $\mathcal P'$ is the golden ratio $G=\frac{1+\sqrt5}2$, and $\mathcal P\cap (1,G)$ is also known (Dufresnoy-Pisot).
In particular, the roots $\eta_n\in(1,2)$ of the polynomials $x^n(x^2-x-1)+1$ are all Pisot numbers, and $\eta_n\uparrow G$ as $n\to\infty$. The question is how fast this convergence is.
We have
$$
\eta_n^n(\eta_n^2-\eta_n-1)+1=0,
$$
and
$$
\eta_n^n(G^2-G-1)=0.
$$
Subtracting, we get that $\eta_n^{-n}\asymp G-\eta_n$, whence
$$
G-\eta_n\asymp G^{-n}.
$$
Thus, the convergence is exponential. Now, if we recall the toy example $\Omega=\{2^{-n}\mid n\ge1\}\cup \{0\}$, we have $\dim_B(\Omega)=0$, so my conjecture is $\dim_B(\mathcal P)=0$ as well.
To prove this rigorously for $\mathcal P\cap(1,2)$, one probably needs to look at all limit points and all sequences of Pisot numbers converging to them (F. L. Talmoudi, 'Sur les nombres de S ∩ [1, 2[', C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris S´er. A–B 287 (1978) A739–A741.)
For $\mathcal P'\cap (2,\infty)$, to my best knowledge, not much is known. But I still expect exponential convergence and, consequently, zero box dimension.
Update. As I expected, outside $(1,2)$ this is a very tough problem. The main issue is to deal with $\mathcal P''$, i.e., the set of limit points for the limit points. Even at $\theta=2$ (which is its minimum), it is unclear how to show that $\mathcal P\cap (2, 2+\delta)$ has zero box dimension -- simply because not much is known about $\mathcal P'\cap (2,2+\delta)$.

Beyond Brussels
Polish TV airs alternative report on EU summit
Wiadomosci reported that Poland had "laid bare" the EU's democratic deficit
By Aleksandra Eriksson
Brussels, 10. Mar 2017, 10:15
The flagship news programme on Polish public TV described the Tusk row on Thursday (9 March) as a triumph that laid bare German EU bullying, in a sign of Poland's new political environment.
EU states on Thursday (9 March) snubbed the Polish delegation by re-electing Donald Tusk as Council chief despite fierce opposition by Polish prime minister Beata Szydlo, whose Law and Justice (PiS) party abhors him.
Most media, including those that were considered loyal to PiS, described it as a fiasco for Warsaw.
But Wiadomosci, the flagship news show of Poland's public broadcaster, TVP, said Tusk had been re-elected due to German pressure and that Poland had achieved its goal by "laying bare" how the EU really worked.
"Today's summit in Brussels demonstrated that the EU lacks democracy, and even the appearance of it," said TVP's reporter after EU heads of state voted 27 to 1 in favour of Tusk.
Viewers were then shown an old clip in which Martin Schulz, a German politician who is running for election in autumn, said the spirit of Europe "may have to be imposed by force".
They were told that the EU had blackmailed Greece back in the day to accept the terms of its bailout; and that the EU was corrupt, incompetent, and wanted to flood Poland with refugees.
TVP said that Tusk, who is despised by PiS chief Jaroslaw Kaczynski, had tried to cover up knowledge of a financial scam in Poland.
The news programme argued people like Tusk were only chosen because EU election procedures were less transparent than Vatican conclaves.
"Some of the most important positions [in the EU] are held by people who likely wouldn't stand a chance if the positions were filled by popular elections", a TVP reporter said, adding that European Commission president Jean-Claude Juncker was mixed up in a tax scandal in Luxembourg.
TVP also played a clip of Juncker at a summit in Riga in 2015, when he greeted EU leaders by slapping them on the neck in what looked like he was drunk.
The news report bundled its EU coverage with material on the Council of Europe, a separate body based in France.
It said the Council promoted Islamic sharia law, and republished a statement by Kaczynski from 2015 in which he claimed, falsely, that there were 54 sharia zones in Sweden.
"The Council is indeed analysing the compatibility of Sharia law with the European charter of human rights, but hadn't so far taken a position and the elements gathered so far are rather opposed to the conclusions drawn by Polish tv," a press officer for the institution told EUobserver.
PiS took control of public media shortly after coming to power in October 2015.
It also seized control of the constitutional court in a scandal that triggered a special EU monitoring procedure on rule of law.
Polish TV reports now trumpet PiS successes on a daily basis, quoting economists or other experts who all sing the government's praise.
TVP also promulgates the party's right-wing values.
In other segments on Thursday, it attacked a gay mayor in the town of Slupsk over travelling to Berlin and accused people at a recent women's day rally of hate speech.
Obama report
Polish TV already raised eyebrows at last July's Nato summit in Warsaw.
The US president at the time, Barack Obama, met with his Polish counterpart, the PiS party's Andrzej Duda, and publicly voiced US "concern" over Poland's "actions" in the constitutional court affair.
Polish TV showed the Obama-Duda meeting, but it silenced the original audio, while a Polish narrator said that Obama had congratulated Duda on Poland's democratic credentials.

How Poland's Szydlo fought the EU and lost
9. Mar 2017, 17:43
EU leaders took just 30 minutes to vote Donald Tusk back into office, in a diplomatic fiasco for Polish prime minister Beata Szydlo.
[Updated] Poland tried and failed to block EU summit conclusions shortly after failing to block Tusk's re-election as Council chief, prompting bitter accusations.
7. Feb 2017, 11:13
The Baltic port would like to become a city of solidarity with refugees. But its efforts are being blocked by ruling Law and Justice.
The EU Commission could ask member states to impose sanctions against Poland for its breach of the rule of law in a crucial meeting, though experts say the country is unlikely to be punished.
10. Mar 2017, 14:02
Hungarian PM's Facebook and Twitter saw complaints, some of them profane, after he backed Tusk for EU president despite Polish opposition.
Polish prime minister brought EU summit to the brink in an "emotional" fight against Council chief Tusk.

Adam Lambert's forthcoming new album, 'Trespassing', has finally hit the internet and the reviews so far have all been glowing.
This new cut marks the follow up release to the vocal sensation's 2009 'For Your Entertainment', and fans and critics around the globe have been sharing their opinions on what they've heard so far.
"His vocals exude such confidence, freedom and charm, it makes it seem like there's no need for the revolution he annnounces. It feels like he's already won the fight."
An excited Lambert shared a photograph of the review with his 1.4 million Twitter followers and wrote: "That's what's up!"
EQ Music Blog also posted a review of the album and claimed that "'Trespassing' is undoubtedly the pop album of the year and has raised the standard for everybody else out there".
"There isn't a single uneventful moment on 'Trespassing'; it's full of energy the entire way through, and even the slower songs and ballads radiate a quiet intensity, making them impossible to ignore. Overall, this album is an incredible work."
'Trespassing', which Pressparty reviewed back in January, is set to be released on May 15 in the USA and will follow shortly after on July 2 in the UK.

Unauthorized Immigrants in the United States and Europe: The Use of Legalization/Regularization as a Policy Tool
Immigrant legalizations in the United States and Europe ("regularizations" in the EU context) have been used repeatedly for broad and discrete groups of immigrants. A look at how these programs have been implemented historically and the political and policy implications they face today.
President Obama actively utilized the powers of the executive to reshape U.S. immigration policy in 2015. From signature deportation relief programs and changes to visa waiver eligibility to new grants of Temporary Protected Status and revised enforcement priorities, the administration made sweeping changes that touch all aspects of U.S. immigration policy. The actions prompted pushback, however, with 26 states suing to halt implementation of new deferred action programs.
Citizenship came under fire in new ways around the world in 2015, with attempts to both restrict who is eligible to become a citizen and who can be deprived of citizenship. Driven by fears of international terrorism, a number of countries proposed or passed legislation making it easier to narrow citizenship and broadening the range of offenses for which individuals can be stripped of their citizenship.
As seemingly endless waves of asylum seekers and migrants arrived in Europe in 2015, politicians from across the political spectrum invoked forceful anti-immigrant rhetoric that resonated in some quarters. Mainstream politicians began co-opting the tougher, more enforcement-laden language of far-right groups as all parties sought to reassure voters in the wake of terrorist attacks in Paris.
In this commentary, the day before President Obama signs into law the 2015 reauthorization of the federal education statute, the Migration Policy Institute's new Senior Fellow for Education Policy, Delia Pompa, analyzes the forthcoming law's reach with respect to English learners (ELs).
Child migrants traveling alone to Europe or the United States face similar dangers and are particularly at risk of abuse and trafficking. The arrival of tens of thousands of such children in Europe and the United States have overwhelmed accommodations as well as legal and integration processes. Furthermore, the unprecedented flows have sparked heated public debate in a number of cities.
For a growing population of migrants deported from Mexico and the United States to Central America, the conditions upon return typically are worse than when they left, setting up a revolving-door cycle of migration, deportation, and remigration. This report provides a detailed profile of reception and reintegration services offered in El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras to deported migrants, examining their challenges and opportunities for improvement.

Q: Processing: The function "toArray()" expects parameters like: "toArray(T[])" I have some code that contains this hashmap (I removed all but 5 of the pairs to simplify):
HashMap<String, Integer> partiesColors = new HashMap<String, Integer>();
{
  partiesColors.put("None", color(0, 0, 0, 0));
  partiesColors.put("KPÖ", color(170, 0, 0));
  partiesColors.put("PILZ", color(128, 128, 128));
  partiesColors.put("Grüne", color(81, 165, 30));
  partiesColors.put("SPÖ", color(227, 30, 45));
};

I am trying to extract the colors to make a single array with them all with this line:
color[] colorsOnly = partiesColors.values().toArray(new color[partiesColors.size()]);

But the Processing (3.5.4) IDE refuses to accept that, and redlines the toArray part with The function "toArray()" expects parameters like: "toArray(T[])" despite the orthography being identical to several resources I found online. How am I supposed to do this?

A: You could make an ArrayList (ArrayList is more flexible, than an Array).
ArrayList<Integer> colors = new ArrayList<>();

for(int i = 0; i<=4; i++){

colors.add(partiesColors.get(i))
}

Adds the first 5 values of the HashMap, which are linked to the index.
You could also try this:
Object[] colorArray = partiesColors.entrySet().toArray();

A: color is syntatic sugar for int offered by the Processing IDE.
In fact, there is no real color type or class; the pre-processor converts all uses of color to int when the script is compiled to Java.
Hence you can use int and color interchangeably, and so your array doesn't need to be of type color.
Integer[] colorsOnly = partiesColors.values().toArray(new Integer[partiesColors.size()]);
color col = colorsOnly[0];
