I first became interested in fractal patterns from watching the TV series "Defying Gravity". There were constant references in the show to things being "fractal" so I looked it up. I found it a fascinating study. Sadly the show is no more, but my interest in the subject continues. I have to admit though, I never applied fractal patterning to myself or mankind in genera. I provocative though for sure.
I really like the way you look at the idea and put forth that we may be just living in a different scale.
I had a real good time in my college math classes when we got on the subject of fractals.
Wow these pictures are amazing at really showing you the complexity of the patterns from fractals.
I'm a graphic designer and am fascinated by fractals, its amazing how they are naturally occurring everywhere and how beautiful and symbolic they are… almost magical.
I used to work as a teacher's aide at a school called The Nautilus. One day I asked the owner why she named her school after what i thought was just a sea shell. Boy, did I get an earful, lol! it really is very symbolic, and a great name for a school too.
The picture of the Lungs looks awesome. Our Lungs and Blood Vessels Are Laid Out in a Fractal Pattern. Thanks for the information. I am learning new things here.
"it is reasonable to wonder if we ourselves are within a larger pattern." Now that is something ponder on. You made a great point about that from fractal patterns and in our life. I would always think of us to be just another entity in the universe. But to have a different view like this with fractal patterns is entirely new to me. From our lungs to the coast lines, if you zoom out on the picture of where we live in it does make a fractal pattern from the smallest things. Now we just now to look out.
This article is another eye opener of a characteristic of life, and hopefully by all beings in the galaxy. I've read the entire article and looked at the photos and it was amazing. I never realized that fractals have been all around us. It seems this is really how nature intended beings, with fractal patterns. And even plants by the way and shells that we seem to ignore at the waters as just another shell sea creature.
Fractals are one of the ways that nature shows that it is all mathematics.
OK, this may be a bit off the wall, but when I was a child I used to push on my eyeballs to see the colours and patterns that would appear. I have no idea how I first discovered this, and it may have a lot to do with why I have poor eyesight now as an adult. My reason for mentioning this is that what I was seeing when I did this was fractal patterns in a never ending array of changing shapes and colours, but always fractal in structure.
Dude! I used to do the exact same thing when I was a little kid and I have worn glasses since I was 3, lol. It was pretty interesting to see those patterns when I was bored, it was like a cool show but it really hurts after a couple of minutes. I actually just do it just for nostalgia and I am still amazed of how similar does those patterns looks to the video that the author posted here. What's this all about?
Fractal pattern explains why even the most random looking natural objects aren't the result of some accident, but rather every natural creation has an order and rule to them. It's incredible to think that we're merely repeating patterns and that could be in the super mini scale and as well as super large scale. The more you learn about these things the more they baffle you, there's just no end to the amazement of science.
Fractals show us how more complex patterns are really based on the simplest of patterns. With fractals a simple mathematical statement can create amazing results.
With so much in nature being fractal in structure it stands to reason our very thought processes are fractal, even if we don't recognize them as being so… yet.
I love fractal patterns. They are interesting to study and how it looks in nature. Though I never thought about our lungs and how they are in a fractal pattern.
My mother is obsessed with fractals, having watched a similar documentary on TV about two years ago. I think there are patterns to everything existent in this world. However, I'm unsure as to whether fractals are the commonality of the hierarchy of intelligence. Yet, it is most definitely interesting to consider. Thanks for the read and the reminder; I'll be sure to discuss this topic again with her for more insight.
Thank you for another fascinating entry.
I have never thought before about fractals even if I was familiar with the word, but the explanation you made here makes perfect sense, nature needs a pattern to be developed and fractals are that representation. Who or what was wise enough to create them though?
I think that it was nature itself, and as humans we obviously are part of nature, even if sometimes we think that we are wiser or even superior to it… So we still have a lot of it, even in our mind. But I still find curious that we have it inside of our brains, with all the process that this simple fact involves.
While I was watching the video I couldn't help to think about art patterns that even without being an artist, I have also repeated it myself. And it's a really curious thing, and this article made me think about the theory of the collective unconscious by Jung, I think. What if those patterns are a big part of that unconscious? And having on mind what you just said about the way that nature orders itself, then in some way we already have an answer for existence? Maybe? I guess that we're just not mature enough to discover it.
Thank you for sharing this. I admit I didn't know what fractal is before reading this blog. Fractal patterns are seen just about anywhere and I didn't even know what these patterns were called, not until now. It's just amazing how nature can arrange such patterns naturally. It's as if nature has a mind of its own. Nature is indeed alive.
Well I cannot really say whether of not this one makes me more excited or less excited to know what I know now. It is very interesting, do not get me wrong, but you cannot help but think that it takes something away from the intelligence process, when you just reduce it down to that. At the same time, though, you have to see the potential that this information holds and what it can be used for. Very fascinating stuff, and thanks for sharing.

Q: Fix the issue of "Cookie Does Not Contain The HTTPOnly Attribute" on the client side A recent security scan of my site indicates that the site has this issue:
Cookie Does Not Contain The "HTTPOnly" Attribute

I did research and found links about the fix. For example:
https://www.owasp.org/index.php/HttpOnly
However, all the links talk about doing some work on the server side through code or configuration. The way I do cookies on this site is adding/removing cookies via Javascript with the help of jquery-cookie found here
https://github.com/carhartl/jquery-cookie
So, how can I fix this security issue?
Updates
Thank @cody for pointing me to another post. Basically, no client-side solution. Then another question:
Do I have to migrate my cookie-related Javascript code into server-side code (e.g., C# in my case)? I guess the answer is yes. I also guess that server-side configuration only (IIS in my case) won't work. Just wanted to check with experts here.

Q: JPA/Hibernate bulk(batch) insert Here is simple example I've created after reading several topics about jpa bulk inserts, I have 2 persistent objects User, and Site. One user could have many site, so we have one to many relations here. Suppose I want to create user and create/link several sites to user account. Here is how code looks like, considering my willing to use bulk insert for Site objects.
User user = new User("John Doe");

user.getSites().add(new Site("google.com", user));
user.getSites().add(new Site("yahoo.com", user));

EntityTransaction tx = entityManager.getTransaction();
tx.begin();
entityManager.persist(user);
tx.commit();

But when I run this code (I'm using hibernate as jpa implementation provider) I see following sql output:
Hibernate: insert into User (id, name) values (null, ?)
Hibernate: call identity()
Hibernate: insert into Site (id, url, user_id) values (null, ?, ?)
Hibernate: call identity()
Hibernate: insert into Site (id, url, user_id) values (null, ?, ?)
Hibernate: call identity()

So, I means "real" bulk insert not works or I am confused?
Here is source code for this example project, this is maven project so you have only download and run mvn install to check output.
UPDATED:
After Ken Liu kindly advise, I've disabled Site object id auto generation:
    User user = new User("John Doe");
    user.getSites().add(new Site(1, "google.com", user));
    user.getSites().add(new Site(2, "yahoo.com", user));
    entityManager.setFlushMode(FlushModeType.COMMIT);
    EntityTransaction tx = entityManager.getTransaction();
    tx.begin();
    entityManager.persist(user);
    tx.commit();

Now I have following line in debug output:
DEBUG: org.hibernate.jdbc.AbstractBatcher - Executing batch size: 2
It works!

A: I have found it much more efficient to bypass hibernate for bulk inserts. You must do away with ORM (object relational mapping) but you can still leverage the connection associated with the current session and the transaction management.
While you temporarily lose the convenience of your ORM, the payoff is significant, especially if you have natively generated Ids since hibernate would normally perform one SELECT for each INSERT.
Session.doWork is very handy for facilitating this.
private MyParentObject saveMyParentObject(final MyParentObject parent, final List<MyChildObject> children)
{
    transaction = session.beginTransaction();
    try
    {
        session.save(parent); // NOTE: parent.parentId assigned and returned here

        session.doWork(new Work()
        {
            public void execute(Connection con) throws SQLException
            {
                // hand written insert SQL - can't use hibernate
                PreparedStatement st = con.prepareStatement("INSERT INTO my_child (parent_id, name, ...) values (?, ?, ...)");

                for (MyChildObject child : children)
                {
                    MyChildObject child = new MyChildObject();
                    child.setParentId(parent.getParentId()); // assign parent id for foreign key

                    // hibernate can't help, determine jdbc parameters manually
                    st.setLong(1, child.getParentId());
                    st.setString(2, child.getName());
                    ...
                    st.addBatch();
                }

                // NOTE: you may want to limit the size of the batch
                st.executeBatch();
            }
        });

        // if your parent has a OneToMany relationship with child(s), refresh will populate this
        session.refresh(parent);
        transaction.commit();
        return parent;
    }
    catch(Throwable e)
    {
        transaction.rollback();
        throw new RuntimeException(e);
    }
}

A: I have written a short blog which talks about batch insert gotchas and also has pointer to small project that has all the right configurations to get started with batch insert with Hibernate. See the details at http://sensiblerationalization.blogspot.com/2011/03/quick-tip-on-hibernate-batch-operation.html

A: If you're using the database to generate ids, then Hibernate has to execute a query to generate the primary key for each entity.

Doctor Who: The Faceless Ones (Animation)
The Faceless Ones is the mostly missing eighth serial of the fourth season of Doctor Who, which was first broadcast in six weekly parts from April to May 1967. Starring Patrick Troughton as the Doctor, the story concerns a race of identity-stealing aliens known as the Chameleons.
Only two of the six episodes are held in the BBC film archives with snippets of footage and still images existing from the other four. Off-air recordings of the soundtrack also still exist, making the animation of a complete serial possible once again.
The six new animated episodes are being made in full colour and high definition. The DVD/Blu-ray release will also include surviving archive material from the original 1967 production.
Also starring:
Anneke Wills – Polly
Michael Craze – Ben Jackson
Frazer Hines – Jamie McCrimmon

Is your business registered for VAT and does it have a taxable turnover of over £85,000? If yes, from the 1 April 2019 your business must comply with new Making VAT Digital rules or face fines of up to 15% of your annual VAT bill.
As yet, HMRC hasn't announced any further penalties for non-compliance. The main issue will be when taxpayers continue to submit their returns using the old system. Unfortunately, as the VAT return will not be properly "furnished" this may mean that the default late payment surcharge regime applies even though the taxpayer thinks they have done the right thing and paid their VAT on time.
Businesses must move to a new system which allows them to report VAT return information directly to HMRC. For any return commencing on or after 1 April 2019 they can no longer submit a VAT return through their government gateway account. Instead, they must use software which is able to communicate with HMRC via an Application Programming Interface (API). If this is not in place, HMRC's system may prevent them from submitting their VAT return in the traditional way. The penalties can be as high as 15% of VAT due.
VAT registered taxpayers covered by Making VAT Digital will no longer be able to maintain manual records in any part of their accounting system. For those who use software and spreadsheets, digital links must be in place by 1 April 2020 to transfer data between each function. It will no longer be acceptable to manually re-key data from one system to another.
What do we know from HMRC and software providers?
Unfortunately there isn't as much certainty and guidance as we would like. HMRC has drafted a public notice which sets out the changes to legislation, a timetable and what will be expected. HMRC has a small pilot trial and about 60 of the main software providers are involved. Businesses should be able to elect to be included in a further trial this October.
There is some movement from software suppliers. Some have created API enabled spreadsheets that will allow a "bridge" to be made between the businesses records and HMRC VAT return system. However, this is a first fix. The largest providers have confirmed that Making VAT Digital is being treated as a priority and a patch will be available in good time. All providers involved in the trial have performed tests and submissions. It's understood that from July tests will be carried out on the more complicated aspects such as partial exemption and VAT group reporting.
Ensure you understand how MTD affects you. Make sure your team is trained so they also fully comprehend the requirements.
Ensure that the software you use to produce your VAT return figures is API-enabled in time for April 2019. Your software provider will be able to update you. Alternatively, you can acquire an API enabled spreadsheet to bolt on as an interim measure. These are coming to market now and should develop and improve in the next few months.
Digitise all parts of your record-keeping and ensure that the VAT return can be created from those digital records. For businesses using a basic spreadsheet approach or manual records, it's time to look at software options.
While exemptions will apply to a minority of businesses, the extent of Making VAT Digital means it's vital to evaluate whether your business falls outside the regime. Charities and academies for example may well be exempt.
The key is that exemptions apply to VAT registered businesses where the taxable turnover is £85,000 and above. Many will be registered for VAT but will be under this threshold. They should therefore be able to opt out and continue as they are now. Unfortunately, how the opt out process works is still unknown and we await further guidance from HMRC.
If you have any concerns or need advice on how to ensure compliance with the new regime, please contact our team on 0191 285 0321 or email advice@taitwalker.co.uk.

· Good and evil: If God is so powerful, how did the devil get so strong?
· Sickness and healing: If God is a healer, why are people still sick?
· Heaven and hell: Are these places real? Who goes where?
Through it all, Rabbi Bernis reveals the heart of a faithful God, encouraging you to embrace His supernatural working in your own life with confidence.
Angel Stories: Firsthand Accounts from Randy Clark, John Paul Jackson, James Goll, and more!
Why is there something, anything, rather than nothing? In our fascination with life's origin and evolution, we bypass this most basic of conundrums. The very fact and nature of existence . . . force upon us the unsettling reality that at some level there is the metaphysical.
Are we simply a random collection of atoms that have come together for a brief time—atoms that will soon disappear like a puff of smoke, leaving nothing at all behind? Are we, as the seventies rock band Kansas declared, merely dust in the wind ? Sound and fury signifying nothing?
Or is there more to our existence? A purpose and a plan behind our very brief appearance in history?
And how about this—is there more to this world than we can comprehend with our physical senses? Is anything out there beyond what we can see, hear, taste, touch and smell?
In other words, is there a supernatural realm of angels, demons, seers, prophets, spirits and the like? Or is the supernatural merely an invention of charlatans like palm readers and spirit mediums to take advantage of the gullible?
People have been asking such questions since the first people stared in amazement and awe at the brilliance of the nighttime sky. They have been debated by philosophers, scientists, members of the clergy, educators and ordinary people from all walks of life. Some have invested years of wisdom, energy and hard work into proving that life is merely a matter of chance. Others have worked just as hard and long proving the existence of what might be called a divine purpose.
Obviously, these are not questions that I will resolve to everyone's satisfaction in the few pages of this book. But I will come as close as I can. My intention is to investigate the matter as thoroughly and fairly as possible and present my honest conclusions—conclusions based on more than three decades of study and experience as a Messianic rabbi.
We will start off with a close-up look at the universe we live in. Can it be explained as a random act of nature, or is something more behind it all? Is the Bible true when it says, In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth ? Or is that merely a parable to explain scientific concepts that ancient human beings could never hope to comprehend?
As you can see, it will get pretty deep before we are through.
Now, you may be wondering what it means when I call myself a Messianic rabbi. It means, first of all, that I believe that Jesus (I like to call Him by His Hebrew given name, Yeshua) is the Messiah. I also believe, like the early followers of Yeshua, that I am still very much Jewish.
Most Jews of my generation will not refer to me as a rabbi, because rabbi, in the Jewish world, means someone who has studied at a recognized Jewish institution and has been ordained by a mainstream, recognized Jewish body. Though I do not meet these criteria, I am ordained and have served in full-time ministry for more than thirty years.
One other very important thing that qualifies me to write this book is that I am a naturally curious person. I am not content with pat answers to tough questions. I want to find the right answers for myself, and I am willing to work hard to find them. If I do not know enough about a subject to answer it on my own, I find experts who know the subject well and see what they have to say about it.
Not long ago at a dinner, I found myself seated next to a distinguished-looking, well-spoken gentleman. I could tell that he had a good grasp on current events and seemed to know what was going on in the world.
During the course of our conversation, he asked if I knew that the pyramids were built by ancient aliens. I have no idea how he steered the conversation to that subject, but he did. He did not look like he was joking, but I kept expecting a punch line. Instead, he started telling me how aliens from outer space were responsible for all sorts of accomplishments in the ancient world. He was convinced this was true; after all, he had learned about it on the History Channel.
This incident helped to heighten my awareness of all types of information and misinformation that are floating around. Sometimes it is hard to find truth in the midst of all the confusion. And, apparently, even intelligent, aware people are being fooled.
Are you ready to join me on this journey for truth? I believe we will have a fun and interesting time together as we explore the physical and supernatural worlds.
Who knows? You may never look at life the same way again.
Let's begin our quest for answers by taking a look at the universe we live in. Perhaps this is putting the cart before the horse, but I want to start with Charles Darwin's brainchild, the theory of evolution.
Charles Darwin originally intended to become an Anglican priest, but he changed direction after developing a strong interest in the natural world. Five years traveling through South America and the Galápagos Islands allowed him to record observations about the development of life forms in isolated environments. These observations became the basis for his best-known work, On the Origin of Species.
Darwin proposed that all living creatures are descended from a small set of common ancestors. The survival of an organism, he believed, depends on its ability to adapt to its environment, a process he called natural selection. Recognizing, in the words of author Francis Collins, the potentially explosive nature of the argument, 1 Darwin took the concept of natural selection to its logical conclusion, arguing in The Descent of Man that human beings themselves evolved through the same process.
Clearly Charles Darwin did not intend to start a war between science and religion. He did not feel that the Bible's account of creation was incompatible with what he had written in On the Origin of Species.
But most people did not see it that way. Although Darwin apparently did not mean for it to happen, most people seemed to think that the theory of evolution took God out of the equation. Darwin's disciples no longer had any need for an intelligent designer behind the creation and development of our universe. They believed all that was needed to create life was an accidental combination of just the right chemicals, favorable conditions and plenty of time.
Over the next 150 years, Darwin's theory became accepted as gospel. Those who questioned it were dismissed as kooks and dullards. A belief in evolution was an article of faith for anyone who wanted to teach science, from grade school all the way through graduate school.
Nearly a hundred years after publication of On the Origin of Species, two distinguished scientists named Stanley Miller and Harold Urey conducted an experiment that seemed to support the idea that life evolved or materialized or originated on its own. They tried to reconstruct—on a very small scale—the conditions that existed on earth when the first life appeared here by mixing water and several atmospheric gases to develop a primordial soup. They then sent an electric current coursing through the mixture. As a result, a number of important biological building blocks were formed, such as amino acids.
This experiment lent credence to the theory that, given enough time and the right conditions, life could spontaneously originate and later develop into the complexity of life we see today. Perhaps you have heard the analogy that if you put a bunch of monkeys in a cage with computers, given enough time, they would eventually turn out the entire works of Shakespeare. I have heard that type of thing said over and over to support the validity of evolution, and it is always presented not as a theory but as a solid fact—and most people seem to believe it. But is it true?
Philosopher Antony Flew was once one of the world's bestknown atheists. In his last years, his continued study—especially of recent scientific discoveries—brought him to faith in God. He wrote of one experiment in which six monkeys in a cage were given a computer and allowed to have at it. After one month, the monkeys had produced fifty typed pages. How many complete English words (with a space on either side) had they produced?
Flew realized from this experiment that a divine design to the universe was more likely than he had thought. He was further persuaded by Gerald L. Schroeder, a Massachusetts Institute of Technology–trained scientist who has worked in both physics and biology. Schroeder noted that Shakespeare's famous sonnet Shall I compare thee to a Summer's day? is 488 letters long. Calculating the odds that random typing would produce the 488 letters of that sonnet in sequence is mathematically straightforward: You multiply 26 (the number of letters in the alphabet) times itself 488 times. This is on the order of 10 to the 690th power—meaning that you would have to try this random sequencing of letters 10-followed-by-690-zeros times to hit upon the correct combination.
Believing that life on earth came together by chance is like believing that a strong wind blowing through a junkyard would eventually put together a top-of-the-line Mercedes. Does that not sound ridiculous? Remember that our universe, and the human body in particular, is much more complex than the latest breakthrough in automobile engineering.
To be sure, there have been hundreds, even thousands, of discoveries that support many of Darwin's ideas.
Francis S. Collins, whom I quoted earlier, is a respected scientist and devout Christian. He led one of the greatest scientific endeavors of the 21st century—the Human Genome Project. Collins sees no reason why anyone should have to choose between the theory of evolution and the Bible's account of creation.

Q: Confluentinc connector. Multiple connectors in one elasticsearch index. Publish in specific document type I have a problem with Confluentinc connector.
When you creating the connector you need to specify topic (elasticsearch index) and type (document type in ES).
{
  "name": "test-connector",
  "config": {
    "connector.class": "io.confluent.connect.elasticsearch.ElasticsearchSinkConnector",
    "tasks.max": "1",
    "topics": "test",
    "key.ignore": "false",
    "schema.ignore": "false",
    "connection.url": "http://elastic:9200",
    "type.name": "type1",
    "name": "elasticsearch-sink"
  }
}

I want to publish in the same index (kafka topic) but to different types, is it possible?
I've tried to create multiple connectors, but the problem, that it every connector consume the message, because it's a same topic.
I've tried to create connector on the fly with specific type, publish there and then remove connector. But sometimes it removing too early and not all messages are consumed (didn't appear in elastic). Also when i'm removing connector and creating another one with other document type, this new connector consumes some of old messages.
Does anyone have an idea how to manage this?

A: Each connector can route messages to one type. You can use Single Message Transform to route messages to different indices, but this is not what you want.
What I would recommend is use stream processing to split the messages into different topics. Each topic is then streamed by a different connector to the same index but different type as required.
To do the stream processing you could use something like Kafka Streams, Spark Streaming, etc etc. There's also KSQL, which would let you do something like this:
CREATE STREAM FOO_TYPE_A AS SELECT * FROM FOO WHERE TYPE='A';
CREATE STREAM FOO_TYPE_B AS SELECT * FROM FOO WHERE TYPE='B';
CREATE STREAM FOO_TYPE_C AS SELECT * FROM FOO WHERE TYPE='C';

You then have three topics (FOO_TYPE_A, FOO_TYPE_B, FOO_TYPE_C) that you create three connectors for, streaming to index FOO but with different types.
Disclaimer: I work for Confluent, the company behind the open-source KSQL project.

A: i found a solution, unfortunately it is deprecated. If you know something better, please let me know.
From official docs:
topic.index.map
This option is now deprecated. A future version may remove it completely. Please use single message transforms, such as RegexRouter, to map topic names to index names.

A map from Kafka topic name to the destination Elasticsearch index, represented as a list of topic:index pairs.

Type: list
Default: ""
Importance: low

so i've created connector like that:
{
  "name": "test-connector-old",
  "config": {
  .....
    "topics": "old",
    "topic.index.map": "old:test",
....
  }
}

now i can push to topic "old" and it will index elasticsearch "test" index
then i've created more connectors, and using "topic.index.map": "TOPIC_NAME:test", i could index different types on the same index
in future versions it  will be topic => index. Confluent team, please don't remove topic.index.map, or find better solution for this case
Thank you!

El centro histórico de Roma, patrimonio de la Humanidad reconocido por la Unesco en 1980, abarca en las murallas aurelianas a la derecha del Tíber y en las murallas del Janículo a la izquierda.
El territorio está dividido en 22 rioni enumerados a continuación:

I - Monti
Su nombre deriva de las siete colinas o montes: Celio, Cispio, Esquilino, Oppio, el Quirinal y el Viminal. Su escudo consta de tres montes de sinople sobre campo de plata.
II - Trevi
El origen de su nombre no es seguro, hoy la hipótesis más acreditada es que provenga del antiguo trejo, que indicaba la confluencia de tres vías en la placita de los Crociferi, situada al lado de la moderna Plaza de Trevi.
III - Colonna
El nombre deriva de la Columna dedicada a Marco Aurelio, llamada Antonina, que se encuentra en la plaza homónima. Allí se encuentran el Palacio Montecitorio, sede de la Cámara de Diputados y el Palacio Chigi, sede del Gobierno. Su escudo es una columna de plata sobre campo de gules.
IV - Campo Marzio
El Campo Marzio (Campus Martis) o «Campo de Marte» era una zona de la Roma antigua de alrededor de 2 km², en un principio fuera de los límitesde la ciudad. Toma su nombre del altar dedicado a Marte, dios de la guerra, alzada tras la caída de Tarquinio el Soberbio. Allí se encuentran la plaza de España y la plaza del Popolo. El escudo es una media luna de plata en campo de azur; el origen del símbolo se ignora.
V - Ponte
Su nombre deriva de la presencia del puente Sant'Angelo, o puente Elio. En su escudo hay un puente.
VI - Parione
El nombre Parione deriva de la presencia en el rione de un edificio antiguo, o de una parte (paries) del mismo, que toma nombre del pueblo Parietone. El centro del pequeño barrio es la plaza Navona. Su emblema es un grifo, criatura mitológica griega con la cabeza de águila y el cuerpo de león, símbolo de fiereza y nobleza.
VII - Regola
El nombre deriva de arenula (retomado en la moderna Via Arenula), esto es de aquella arena suave que aún hoy el río Tíber deposita durante las inundaciones, y que por lo tanto formaba de los arenales que se usaban después para la construcción del Lungotevere. El escudo del rione es un ciervo rampante en campo de azur.
VIII - Sant'Eustachio
El nombre deriva de la iglesia homónima. Allí se encuentra el Palacio Madama, sede del Senado de la República. Su escudo está formado por la cabeza de un ciervo (símbolo de san Eustaquio) y del busto de Jesús; las figuras son de oro y el campo es de gules.
IX - Pigna
El emblema del rione está constituido por una piña: según la leyenda, el nombre deriva de la gigantesca piña de bronce encontrada en el rione y en seguida colocada en el Patio de la Piña de la Ciudad del Vaticano. Todavía, en el siglo XII la piña se encontraba ya delante de la antigua Basílica de San Pedro, cuando el rione no tenía aún asumido este nombre. Otra hipótesis hace derivar el nombre, en cambio, de la Viña de Tedemario (un romano que poseía tierras en la zona del Circo Flaminio). Aquí se encuentran el Panteón y la plaza Venezia.
X - Campitelli
Hay dos versiones sobre el origen del nombre de este barrio: según la primera deriva de Campus telluris, esto es "campo o plaza de tierra", según la otra hipótesis viene de Aedes telluris, esto es "Tempio della dea Terra". Aquí se encuentre al Foro Romano y el Campidoglio. El emblema del barrio es una cabeza de sable de un dragón sobre campo blanco. El símbolo deriva de la leyenda según la cual un dragón que infestaba el Foro Romano fue cazado por el Papa Silvestre I.
XI - Sant'Angelo
Es el rione más pequeño. Su nombre deriva de la iglesia de Sant'Angelo en Pescheria. Aquí se encuentra el Gueto. Su blasón es un ángel sobre campo de gules, con una espada en la mano derecha y una balanza en la izquierda. La balanza no se refiere a la justicia, sino más bien a pesar el pescado, porque el antiguo mercado de peces se encontraba en el gueto, junto al Pórtico de Octavia.
XII - Ripa
El nombre tiene su origen en la zona del Tíber llamada Ripa Grande (Ribera grande), donde estaba la grada fluvial. Está considerado el más antiguo de los barrios, por la presencia de un asentamiento prerromano. Hoy comprende también el Monte Aventino, situado a sus espaldas. El escudo de armas es una rueda de timón blanca sobre campo de gules, recordando al antiguo puerto.
XIII - Trastevere
Se encuentra en la ribera occidental (orilla derecha) del Tíber, al sur de la Ciudad del Vaticano. Su nombre deriva del latín trans Tiberim (al otro lado del Tíber), que era al mismo tiempo el nombre de una de las regiones de augusteas. Es el barrio símbolo de los "Popolo Romano". Su blasón es una cabeza de león de oro sobre campo de gules.
XIV - Borgo
El nombre deriva de la palabra germánica burg (centro habitado, pequeña ciudad), dado a la zona por los peregrinos sajones que se acercaban a Roma en la Alta Edad Media. Aquí se encuentran el Castel Sant'Angelo y la Via della Conciliazione.
XV - Esquilino
El nombre proviene de la vulgarización del término Esquilinus, una zona insalubre donde se sepultaba a los esclavos. Se cree que este nombre derivaba de los aexculi, encinas arbustivas que recubrían la cumbre de la colina. Se encuentran aquí la Basílica de Santa María la Mayor y la Porta Maggiore. Su escudo está formado por un árbol y un monte en campo de plata.
XVI - Ludovisi
El nombre del barrio deriva de la Villa Ludovisi, rodeada por uno de los pocos parques de la ciudad, destruita a finales del siglo XIX durante las labores de construcción del barrio. El escudo del barrio tiene tres bandas de oro y un dragón, también de oro, sobre campo de gules.
XVII - Sallustiano
El nombre deriva de los más bellos jardines de la Roma antigua, los Horti Sallustiani. Aquí están la Via XX Settembre y la Porta Salaria.
XVIII - Castro Pretorio
El nombre se refiere a los Castra Praetoria, los antiguos cuarteles que se remontan al tiempo del emperador Tiberio, en los que se alojaba la Guardia pretoriana. Se encuentran aquí el Teatro de la Ópera y la Porta Pia. El escudo es el lábaro de la Guardia pretoriana en oro sobre campo de gules.
XIX - Celio
El nombre deriva del monte Celio. Se encuentran aquí el Coliseo y el Arco de Constantino. El escudo de armas representa un busto de un hombre africano vestido con despojos de elefante y espigas de oro sobre campo de plata, en memoria de un busto africano encontrado en la via Capo d'Africa.
XX - Testaccio
Toma el nombre del llamado «Monte de las Tejas» (Mons Testaceus), de 35 metros de alto, y formado por los ladrillos o tejas (testae, en latín) y varios detritos variados acumulados a lo largo de los siglos como resto de los transportes que se hacían hacia el puerto de Ripa Grande. Nacido como distrito obrero a finales del siglo XIX, hoy compite en cuando a «romanidad» con el Trastevere. Aquí se encuentra el cementerio protestante.
XXI - San Saba
Llamado popularmente el «pequeño Aventino», San Saba es un barrio de creación reciente (aunque de antigua urbanización), al margen del gran pulmón verde y arqueológico del complejo Termas de Caracalla - Circo Massimo - Palatino. El nombre deriva de la iglesia medieval de San Saba ahí existente.
XXII - Prati
Toma el nombre de los desaparecidos Prata Neronis, llamados en la Edad Media también Prata Sancti Petri, destruidos hacia el 1870 al edificarse este distrito. Su símbolo es el perfil del mausoleo de Adriano en azur sobre campo de plata; ha de recordarse que el mausoleo de Adriano (Castillo Sant'Angelo) no pertenece a este barrio, sino al Borgo. Se encuentran aquí la plaza de los Quirites y la plaza Cavour.

Yarn Syndicate Ltd. vs Deputy Commissioner Of Income Tax on 28 August, 2000
Posted On August 28, 2000 by &filed under Judgements.
Income Tax Appellate Tribunal – West Bengal
Bench: S Chandra, N Saini
N.K. Saini, A.M.
1. This is an appeal filed by the assesses against the order of the CIT(A), dt. 30th
Nov., 1995.
2. The grievance of the assessee vide this appeal is that the learned CIT(A) erred in wrongly upholding the figure of deduction under Section 80HHC at Rs. 1,98,62,147 against Rs. 3,94,62,341 claimed by the assessee.
3. The assessee was of the view that even if the export operations resulted in a loss, it will not be adjusted with 10 per cent of the export incentive to arrive at the allowable deduction. The claim was rejected by the AO and action of the assessee in ignoring the toss and taking at nil was not considered by the AO in accordance with Sub-section (3) of Section 80HHC. The AO was of the view that profit also means loss as in any other section of IT Act.
4. In the first appeal, it was submitted that Section 80HHC(3) did not state that profit also included loss and proviso to section stated that the profits computed under Clause (a) or (b) or (c) of the sub-section shall be further increased by this amount which bore 90 per cent of any sum referred to in Clauses (iiia), (iiib) and (iiic) of Section 28 of the IT Act. It was also submitted that computation of profit under the head 'profit and gains of business or profession" and calculation of deduction under Section 80HHC were totally two different aspects. It was also argued that it could not therefore be constituted to mean that loss before providing effect to addition of 90 per cent of proportionate export incentive would be converted to income as a result of giving the said effect.
5. The CIT(A) considered the arguments of the assessee as unreasonable and agreed with the AO that profit referred to in Section 80HHC(3) included loss as in any other section of IT Act. He was of the view that profit computed under any head of "business or profession" which resulted in a loss was not to be taken at nil as rightly pointed out by the AO. He also observed that:
"The assessee's interpretation that the profit in the given context does not include loss as there is no specific mention in the given section stating that profits include loss cannot be accepted as under the IT Act profit was inclusive of loss and the loss was negative profit."
With the aforesaid observations the CIT(A) confirmed the order of the AO.
6. Being aggrieved, the assessee is in appeal and the learned authorised representative submitted before us that the assessee suffered loss in export trading, under Section 80HHC(3) there is no word for loss. So.profit in this case was rightly taken at nil and was increased by 90 per cent of sum of profit under Section 28 in proportion as the export turnover bore to the total turnover of the business carried on by the assessee. He also relied on the order of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of CIT v. Canam Workshops (P) Ltd. (1986) 161 ITR 320 (SC) and also the order of the Hon'ble Tribunal, Cochin Bench in the case of Smt. T.C. Usha v. Dy. CIT (1999) 106 Taxman 305 (Mag).
7. In his rival submission that learned Departmental Representative relied on the orders of the authorities below and also mentioned that the cases relied by the learned authorised representative were having different facts, so not related to the instant case. He further submitted that the method adopted by the AO was correct and should be upheld.
8. We have heard both the parties and also perused the material available on
the record along with the case laws relied by the learned authorised representative. The case relied by the learned authorised representative Canara Workshop (P) Ltd. (supra) is distinguishable because in that case it was held by the Hon'ble apex Court that in computing the profits for the purpose of deduction under Section 80E of the IT Act, 1961 the loss incurred by the assessee in the manufacture of alloy steel could not be set off against the profits of manufactured automobile ancillaries. From the above, it is clear that in the case decided by the Hon'ble Supreme Court, the loss of one unit was not allowed to be adjusted against the profit of another unit of the same assessee. But in the instant case, there is no such circumstances. Similarly, the case of Smt T.C. Usha (supra) relied by the learned authorised representative is also distinguishable because in that case it was held that the authorities below were not justified in setting off of the negative profit in respect of export of trading goods against the aggregate of the export profits on manufactured goods, incentive and sales to export house, but in the instant case, there is no such adjustment. It appears from the facts of the case that the assessee was having negative figure of profit and took the same as nil to get the benefit under Section 80HHC(3)(b) which states that:
"(b) Where the export out of India is of trading goods, the profits derived from such export shall be the export turnover in respect of such trading goods as reduced by the direct costs and indirect costs attributable to such export."
It is also provided in Sub-section (3) of Section 80HHC that :
"The profits computed under Clause (a) or Clause (b) or Clause (c) of this sub-section shall be further increased by the amount which bears to ninety per cent of any sum referred to in Clause (iiia) (not being profits on sale of a licence acquired from any other person), and Clauses (iiib) and (iiic) of Section 28, the same proportion as the export turnover bears to the total turnover of the business carried on by the assessee."
It is crystal clear as per proviso to Sub-section (3) of Section 80HHC that the profit computed under Clause (b) shall be further increased, but in the instant case, the profit computed under Clause (b) of Sub-section (3) of Section 80HHC is a negative figure. If the same is considered as nil, as per version of the learned authorised representative no adjustment can be made which is otherwise allowable as per proviso to Sub-section (3) of Section 80HHC, and also nowhere it is mentioned that negative profit may be considered as nil.
9. As per the above discussion, we are of the view that the profit in the instant case was negative and the AO rightly made the adjustment in the negative profit according to the proviso to Section 80HHC(3) which were upheld by the CIT(A). In the light of the above discussion and considering the facts of the case, we are of the view that no interference is required in the order of the CIT(A).
10. In the result, the appeal of the assessee is hereby dismissed.

Texas mass shooting
Texas Shooting Gets Official Designation
And an anti-immigrant screed has been linked to the shooter
By Newser Editors and Wire Services
Posted Aug 4, 2019 12:00 PM CDT
Edie Hallberg cries while speaking to police outside a Walmart store where a shooting occurred earlier in the day as she looks for her missing mother Angie Englisbee, who was in the store during the attack in El Paso, Texas, Saturday, Aug. 3, 2019. (AP Photo/Andres Leighton)
A Justice Department official says the federal government is treating the El Paso shooting that killed 20 people as a "domestic terrorist" case, the AP reports. US Attorney John Bash said Sunday in El Paso that the feds are also investigating the attack at a shopping plaza with a view toward bringing federal hate crime charges. Meanwhile, the police chief in El Paso is linking a racist, anti-immigrant screed posted online shortly before the shooting to the suspect in custody. The document expressed concern that an influx of Hispanics into the US will replace aging white voters, potentially turning Texas blue in elections and swinging the White House to the Democrats. El Paso County District Attorney Jaime Esparza told reporters that the state of Texas also plans to seek the death penalty. (Read more Texas mass shooting stories.)

At bottom of this page is a sort of Scavenger Hunt I had to make for students to explore the Medieval Streets of Sarlat-la-Caneda. Use the link to print a google map with markers to the clues. Good luck!
If you are tired of dock-walking, lying on a beach or ex-pat bars, seek out an hour or so in the company of Pablo Picasso a the beautifully located Picasso Museum, Antibes.
It is the year of Our Lord 1428. War has been raging between the Kingdoms of France and England for nearly a full century. Charles VII of France lays claim to the throne of France, but the situation is getting desperate. Joan of Arc, the Maid of Orleans has not yet arrived at court and the French go from defeat to defeat. The powerful English regent the Duke of Bedford has been advancing down through France and controls a large area around Bordeaux. He hopes to unite the two kingdoms under one rule. But there is a thorn in the side of his plans to conquer all of the Dordogne – the fortified town of Sarlat-la-Caneda.
You are a soldier charged with defending Sarlat. Your actions over the next hour or so could help save the town and thwart the English attack. For you have in your possession a secret weapon. As you were making your patrol on the city wall, you captured a French spy, paid by the English to send them messages on the state of the town defenses.
Luckily for you, the spy is carrying clues to several attacks that the English are planning to carry out the following day. If you can interpret these clues and bring them to the Captain of the town defense before it is too late, you have the chance to help stop the English, save Sarlat and win yourself that promotion you've been wanting for ages.
The defenses of Sarlat have become weak during the war, and the English are planning to exploit some of these weaknesses and conquer the city. To win your promotion, you must find out which of the cities defenses need strengthening – follow the clues, taking a picture of each stop as you get there to show your Captain that you have solid proof of the enemy's plans. Be careful as you go, as a wrong decision could make the Captain lose his confidence in you, and you will be sent to the gallows!
Good luck, the survival of Sarlat is in your hands….
If the people are facing each other, a proposal has been made and the Captain needs to stop the prince from accepting to foil the plot.
If the portraits are facing away from each other, the English were not able to get near enough to the prince to offer a proposal, and the defenses are strong.
3. The English have been known to use hostages during the war to extract a ransom from their enemies. Go to Boetie House, where your spy has told you there may be a plot brewing. Count the number of hearts on the front of the building – be very careful and make sure you get them all!
If the number of hearts is odd, an abduction has been planned and you will need to make sure the guard is stepped up the city to try and prevent it.
If the number of hearts is even, the English have decided the aristocracy is too closely watched and they have given up on the idea of using hostages here.
4. Go to the Cathedral – the ringing of church bells is often used as a code to signal the invading forces to make their attack, but the English will need to cooperation of the monks if they want to use the bells. The church is Benedictine, but who is it dedicated to?
If the church is dedicated to St George, the monks are all of English descent and they will betray Sarlat if asked.
If it is dedicated to any other saint, Sarlat will be safe as the monks will help defend their city in any way they can.
For a bonus point: go into the Cathedral, and look around carefully for the name of the spy. A clue for you – his last name is the same as the town you are in. What is his first name?
5. Rue de la Republique is now the main street of Sarlat, but it's actually very new. In medieval times Rue Tourny was the major entry point of the town. Walk to the end of this street to what was once the city limits.
If the city gates are still there, the defenses are too good and the English will have to find somewhere else to enter.
If the gates are gone, the English have worked out the defenses are poor and you will have to make sure the Captain stations extra men here.
6. The Lanterne des Morts on top of the hill has a secret tunnel running from inside the tower to a point outside the city walls. Try and open the door on the front of the tower.
If the door can be opened, a spy has left it unlocked and the English are planning to enter this way.
If the door is locked, your defenses are holding well.
7. Head to the Presidial, which is marked on your map. This used to be the seat of Royal Justice, but is now used for a different purpose.
If the building is now a restaurant, the spies are cutting off the food supply to Sarlat and you will need to take action.
If it is not a restaurant, the spies cannot find a way to infiltrate via the Presidial and you are safe here.
8. Chemical warfare has been used for centuries using diseases to wipe out enemy forces. Go to the house of Anne D'Autrery on the corner of Place de la Liberte and Impasse Anne D'Autrery, where you will find a clue to the disease that killed the inhabitants of the house. Smallpox was the most contagious disease at the time and the most likely to be fatal.
If Anne D'Autrery died of smallpox, the English are planning to use this disease to infect the whole town.
If she died of a different cause, the English have been unable to harness the disease and you don't need to take any action.
9. Influencing political figures is a common method of gaining an upper hand during a war. Go to the Hotel de Ville, and find the notice board that displays laws and public notices relevant to the people of Sarlat.
If there are any notices in English, the enemy forces have infiltrated and you will need to stop the politicians they are bribing from betraying Sarlat.
If all the notices are in French, the politicians have all remained loyal and you are safe from attack in this manner.
HAVE THE ANSWERS? KNOW WHAT THE ENGLISH ARE PLANNING? – QUICK TO THE FINAL MARKER ON YOUR MAPS – THE HOUSE OF THE CAPTAIN OF DEFENSE ON RUE MAGNANAT!

Joseph Hutchins Colton Biography
G. W. & C. B. Colton was a prominent family firm of mapmakers who were leaders in the American map trade in the nineteenth century. Its founder, Joseph Hutchins Colton (1800-1893), was a Massachusetts native. Colton did not start in the map trade; rather, he worked in a general store from 1816 to 1829 and then as a night clerk at the United States Post Office in Hartford, Connecticut. By 1830, he was in New York City, where he set up his publishing business a year later.
The first printed item with his imprint is dated 1833, a reprint of S. Stiles & Company's edition of David Burr's map of the state of New York. He also printed John Disturnell's map of New York City in 1833. Colton's next cartographic venture was in 1835, when he acquired the rights to John Farmer's seminal maps of Michigan and Wisconsin. Another early and important Colton work is his Topographical Map of the City and County of New York and the Adjacent Country (1836). In 1839, Colton began issuing the Western Tourist and Emigrant's Guide, which was originally issued by J. Calvin Smith.
During this first decade, Colton did not have a resident map engraver; he relied upon copyrights purchased from other map makers, most often S. Stiles & Company, and later Stiles, Sherman & Smith. Smith was a charter member of the American Geographical and Statistical Society, as was John Disturnell. This connection would bear fruit for Colton during the early period in his career, helping him to acquire the rights to several important maps. By 1850, the Colton firm was one of the primary publishers of guidebooks and immigrant and railroad maps, known for the high-quality steel plate engravings with decorative borders and hand watercolors.
In 1846, Colton published Colton's Map of the United States of America, British Possessions . . . his first venture into the wall map business. This work would be issued until 1884 and was the first of several successful wall maps issued by the firm, including collaborative works with D.G. Johnson. From the 1840s to 1855, the firm focused on the production of railroad maps. Later, it published a number of Civil War maps.
In 1855, Colton finally issued his first atlas, Colton's Atlas of the World, issued in two volumes in 1855 and 1856. In 1857 the work was reduced to a single volume under the title of Colton's General Atlas, which was published in largely the same format until 1888. It is in this work that George Woolworth (G. W.) Colton's name appears for the first time.
Born in 1827 and lacking formal training as a mapmaker, G. W. joined his father's business and would later help it to thrive. His brother Charles B. (C. B.) Colton would also join the firm. Beginning in 1859, the General Atlas gives credit to Johnson & Browning, a credit which disappears after 1860, when Johnson & Browning launched their own atlas venture, Johnson's New Illustrated (Steel Plate) Family Atlas, which bears Colton's name as the publisher in the 1860 and 1861 editions.
J.H. Colton also published a number of smaller atlases and school geographies, including his Atlas of America (1854-56), his Illustrated Cabinet Atlas (1859), Colton's Condensed Cabinet Atlas of Descriptive Geography (1864) and Colton's Quarto Atlas of the World (1865). From 1850 to the early 1890s, the firm also published several school atlases and pocket maps. The firm continued until the late 1890s, when it merged with a competitor and then ceased to trade under the name Colton.

Review by Macy O'Hearn : Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark
By d_shine April 23, 2020 January 4th, 2021 Archaeology TV Series Blog, Virtual Heritage School - TV and Movie Review Series
Review by Macy O'Hearn (IAFS alumni/Ithaca College)
Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)
More Deadly Things Coming Out of Walls, More Bad Archaeology
The film opens in 1936 in 'South America' (really… anywhere on the continent?).
Indiana is walking through the jungle and comes across the entrance to a tunnel, which contains just an unreasonable amount of spider webs. Honestly, I cannot think of a single artifact worth hacking your way through this creepy, crawly mess, only to then be faced with metal spikes and poisoned darts flying out of the walls. I think I'll just wait outside, thanks.
Here we get what is probably the most famous scene in the whole series. You know the one—with the golden head and the giant rolling ball? I somehow remember this being a bigger plot point…
After Indiana's jungle adventure, we meet up with him at school, where he is struggling to spell 'Neolithic' on a chalkboard. When class is over, two suited men tell Jones about a Nazi-led excavation in Cairo, where they're searching for the Lost Ark of the Covenant. To find it, however, they'll first need the staff of Ra, which has a crystal head that will illuminate the Ark's location on a map—another 'X marks the spot' opportunity.
We then meet Marion, an old flame of Indy's who just happens to have the head of the staff on a necklace (that's handy!). After one absurdly long chase scene through Cairo, where Marion is ratted on by a monkey wearing a vest and then kidnapped in a giant basket by Nazis, Indiana takes the staff of Ra into the map room, where he triangulates the location of the Well of Lost Souls. Think of it as an old-timey, solar-powered Total Station.
Much to Indiana's dismay, the Well contains thousands of poisonous snakes (also coming out of the walls), but fortunately, also the Ark, which Indiana and his buddy uncover with the greatest of ease. I'd like to note that there is no way two people would have been able to lift that stone lid. I did some research: A stone sarcophagus lid can weigh upwards of 3000 pounds, and these two lift it like it's a flimsy folding card table (about 13 pounds, in case you were wondering).
Finally, we're taken to some island, where the Ark is being opened. According to the Hebrew Bible, the Ark of the Covenant contains, '…the golden pot that had manna, and Aaron's rod that budded, and the tablets of the covenant'. I definitely do not remember seeing anything about swirling, heavenly wraiths that will explode and/or liquefy you if your eyes stay open. But maybe it's just a translation thing?
In conclusion: I'll take one large popcorn, extra butter, and hold the flesh-melting ghosts, please. It's another hate-to-love, thumbs-up from me.

Women as Agents of Change in Mumbai
Ramya Ramanath
Published August 16, 2018 by Routledge
Published July 20, 2018 by Routledge
A Place to Call Home: Women as Agents of Change in Mumbai
Any city is a product of politics and economics, organizations and people. Yet, the life experiences of women uprooted from its poorest quarters seldom inform urban resettlement plans.
In this ethnographic field study, Ramya Ramanath, Associate Professor at DePaul University, examines the lives of women displaced by slum clearance and relocated to the largest slum resettlement site in Asia. Through conversations with diverse women of different ages, levels of education, types of employment, marital status, ethnicity, caste, religion, and household make-up, Ramanath recounts how women negotiate a drastic change in environment, from makeshift housing in a park slum to ownership of a high-rise apartment in a posh Mumbai suburb. Each phase of their city lives reflects how women initiate change and disseminate a vision valuable to planners intent on urban and residential transformations. Ramanath urges the concerted engagement of residents in design, development, and evaluation of place-making processes in cities and within their own neighborhoods especially.
This book will interest scholars of public policy, women and gender studies, South Asian studies, and urban planning.
1. Introduction 2. Vibrant Matter of The Past: A Woman's Theory of Place 3. Deliberation Over Legitimate Benefactors in A Neoliberal Bazaar 4. Hazards of A New Fortune 5. Buildings and Business, Love and Forgiveness 6. The Depth of Place
Ramya Ramanath is Associate Professor and Chair of International Public Service at DePaul University. Her research, spread over three continents, draws on disciplinary perspectives in urban planning, anthropology, and urban sociology. Her research focuses on the behavior of international and domestic nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) in the context of their interactions with government agencies, other NGOs, and intended beneficiaries. Ramanath teaches courses on the management of international NGOs, sustainable international development, cross-sector interactions, and policy implementation.
'Ramya Ramanath skillfully engages an incredible range of women whose experiences vividly illustrate their struggle to make homes, access livelihoods, rebuild lives and construct new identities in the aftermath of their resettlement. These voices are a powerful mode to understand the dynamics of the brutal dislocations, disruptions, and transitions that the poor experience in Mumbai.'
Rahul Mehrotra, Professor of Urban Design and Planning, Harvard University, USA
'Ramanath shows us the value to be gained when women are 'listened' to. Most literature on slums and relocation/rehabilitation takes particular stances on the existence of informal settlements and state intervention in them. The author adds nuance and complexity to these conventional narratives on both fronts. Above all, these narratives also expose the falsehood of the claims of participatory processes by movements, its politics and dynamics and their vulnerability to pressures of the larger political economy. This book will be a learning tool for cities around the world.'
Amita Bhide, Tata Institute of Social Sciences, India
'A Place to Call Home sensitively highlights the everyday rhythms of the lives, aspirations and frustrations of a diverse group of 120 women before and after their displacement from a slum in Mumbai's famous national park to Asia's largest urban resettlement scheme. It is a must read for anybody interested in gender, place making, urban resettlement and public policy.'
Lyla Mehta, Institute of Development Studies, UK
'There is much to learn from Ramanath's work about the importance of relationality, behaviours, memory and materiality within place. The book is a pragmatic, cogent argument for resettlement and rehabilitation policy to give more sensitive attention to the lifeworlds of future residents. The documents of master-planners and consultants frequently contain content, based on 'consultation', that purports to identify what is important about a place. The power of this book is that it shows how engagement that is more open and more genuine than what consultants usually achieve generates less quantifiable and less monetisable, yet more profound and infinitely more important findings.'
Housing Studies
'The ethnographic methodology adopted by Ramanath yields a depth of humanity that would otherwise be lost or overlooked in the aggregate facts and figures summarizing the effectiveness of such policies and programs. Yet, it also leaves the reader with the acute awareness of the effort needed to ensure that these voices reach the ears of researchers, policymakers, and practitioners working on the ground in resettlement and rehabilitation efforts in India and around the world. We are left wondering, how might the rules of newly constructed apartment buildings that enforce "benevolent segregation" accommodate the social capital lost in the resettlement process? An excellent read for those who wish to hear the voices on the ground during the resettlement process.'
Nonprofit and Voluntary Sector Quarterly
'A Place to Call Home: Women as Agents of Change in Mumbai convincingly argues, a gendered perspective has sorely been missing from the discussion. To this end, the book makes a timely and original contribution, offering a nuanced interpretation of the role of gender in rehousing processes in rapidly urbanizing regions. However, due to the pervasiveness of the displacement phenomenon worldwide, the book could also be of great value to scholars and practitioners in the global north.'
Journal of Planning Education and Research
'The book provides unique insights to reflect on how housing is salient to the everydayness of life. Ramanath retains the literal Hindi/Marathi terms throughout the book to preserve the implicit meaning. The usage of original terms like basti, zopadpatti, bombaiyya, dongar,bazaar, bishi, chaali, mahasangh,mandal, morcha, shaana, handaa, etc, cherish the unadulterated meanings with inherent emotions of the local language. She further supports the imagination of the reader through maps for locational context followed by a series of hand-drawn sketches of women during focused group discussions, women performing chores, visuals of bazaar and other glimpses of the neighbourhood.'

West Indies Cricket Team Squad For 2019 Cricket World Cup
West Indies Cricket team squad for cricket world cup 2019 announced on Wednesday by the West Indies Board Officials.
The West Indies named star players Chris Gayle and Andre Russell on their 2019 World Cup team on Wednesday, although Kround Pollard was among those left out.
The first-ever hitter, Gayle, returned to the Windies' one-day international team in his 2-2 draw against England's top-ranked earlier this year, scoring two hundred and two fifty in four innings.
Gayle will make a fifth participation in the World Cup for the West Indies and needs only 253 races to overcome the left-hander Brian Lara and become the best hitter on the Caribbean side in the one-day Internationals.
The self-proclaimed "Universe Boss" is the main act of a batting lineup capable of changing the look of any game with an entrepreneurial stroke game.
But he has been in good shape with the bat, and will bring a vital power to the order of the middle for the two-time world champions in England and Wales.
Haynes noted that Sunil Narine and fast emerging bowler Alzarri Joseph, respectively, were not considered due to injuries to the fingers and shoulder.
Russell did not play against England and has been fighting injuries, playing a limited role with the ball in the current Indian Premier League for the Kolkata Knight Riders.
Roach will make his third appearance in the World Cup and Gabriel the first, and hope to transfer the recent success in the longest version of the game to ODI format to lead the attack.
Other important names that can be lost include Dwayne Bravo, who has been in the international desert since 2016, and Marlon Samuels.
Young hitters Nicholas Pooran and Shimron Hetmyer were included, as was Evin Lewis, who missed the England series, at the expense of John Campbell.
Lewis is likely to start batting with Gayle, 39, who only has 252 runs to break Brian Lara's all-time ODI record in the West Indies and will withdraw from the format after the tournament.
They can amend their squad until May 23, but cricket director Jimmy Adams said there were no plans to do so after the three warm-up series with Bangladesh and Ireland in Dublin.
The West Indies, who won their World Cup trophies in England in 1975 and 1979, started their campaign against Pakistan at Trent Bridge on May 31.
This year's World Cup will be played as a league of 10 teams before the semifinals and the final

RTE icon Anne Doyle rules out a return to the small screen
She would hate to be on a chat show or do Dancing with the Stars
Pictures: G. McDonnell / VIPIRELAND.COM
RTE icon Anne Doyle has ruled out a return to the small screen by saying that the nation has suffered enough during her long reign with the national broadcaster.
With Miriam O'Callaghan taking a break from presenting duties this summer , a slot was available for somebody to take over her summertime chat show. However, Anne couldn't think of anything worse.
She told RSVP Live: "Oh jesus, Mary and Joseph, no. I can give enough lip as it is and the last thing I need is to do is direct that at people every Saturday night. The nation has suffered enough, they don't need that."
Pictures: Jerry McCarthy / VIPIRELAND.COM
Her feelings about an appearance on Dancing with the Stars are exactly the same and she has already ruled herself out of signing up for Season Three of the glitzi Sunday slot.
"You must be joking," she quipped at the opening night of Hairspray in the Bord Gais Energy Theatre.
Seven years after her last bulletin on the news, the 66-year-old still tunes in to keep up with current affairs and she think that new presenters Caitriona Perry and Keelin Shanley are doing great on air.
Asked if they are doing a good job, she said: "I think so, it is going very well for them. Sure, why wouldn't they be great?"
Miriam O'Callaghan finally breaks silence on rumours she will run for Irish Presidency
The Wexford woman continued to say: "Yeah, both of them are very experienced and they have great track records. I would never have expected them to be anything other than fantastic."
Their arrival to Ireland's flagship news show was applauded as the first news slot to be hosted by two females.
However, Anne explained that two women often fronted bulletins over the years and this is nothing new for the station.

"Years ago, everyone used to do bulletins together and quite often it was two women together.
"The main thing is doing the job properly and they do," she said.
