The Russian Star of the event Movie Review
"The Russian Bride" is actually a surprisingly slow film that eventually builds to an amazing gory payoff. It is a movie it's not boring or perhaps plodding, yet it's also a mess. Director Gabriel Ojeda gives you the goods, including opulence, substance abuse, violence, and paranormal activity, with large misdirections. Really not noteworthy correct, nor is it redeemable, but the climaxing leaves the audience with so much concerns. And the cliffhangers don't set up enough repos to make you dedicate inside the story. Rather, various indications and cliffhangers don't lead to any cohesive direction. And the foggy clearness makes character sympathies at bay.
The Russian Star of the event is a grand guignol using a subtle narrative. It commences with a gruesome case of mail-order Russian brides, who will be trafficked to wealthy misogynists for their funds and position. In order to protect youngsters, the serious billionaire Karl Frederick employs an American occasional actress to play the wife of his dearly departed good friend. But , the partnership between the two girls is tainted and the two women find yourself with a tragic end.
"The Russian Bride" starts with the billionaire Karl Frederick browsing a website and exhibiting interest in the young one mother Nina. Nina is a struggling single mother who shares an apartment with her 11-year-old daughter Dasha. The Russian woman yearns for a better father than her abusive ex-husband. As a desperate last resort, Nina wants to go to America with her son, although there's a trouble.
The Russian Bride may be a grand guignol film. It's a Cinepocalypse selection that is thick with style and a subtle story. It is the report of a Russian woman exactly who wishes to escape a world of comfort and security. Her new spouse is a drug-addict and the only way the girl can break free from his life is to join him. She reluctantly wants to voyage to America and marry Karl.
The Russian Bride-to-be has a superb climax, nonetheless it's a lackluster movie overall. While it isn't a poor film, it could not the best choice for lady or film fests. Whilst it isn't terrible, it's certainly not a superb movie. The climax can be uninspired and forgettable, and the film is a mess. You can't help but think that it's a grand guignol work of art.
Despite the poor ending, "The Russian Bride" is a astonishingly entertaining russian bride movie movie. This features a cast that makes every character think at home, and a memorable film ranking that's certain to keep you laughing for hours. 2 weeks . good choice for those who take pleasure in a horror flick. For anybody who is looking for a interesting, bloody https://jpia.princeton.edu/sites/jpia/files/2006-11.pdf thriller, they have worth a wrist watch.

Vic Firth: 1930 to 2015
Modern Drummer was saddened to hear of the passing of Vic Firth. The following profile on the performing and manufacturing giant, written by Lauren Vogel Weiss, first appeared in the July 2013 issue of Drum Business magazine.
Careers in the music business can be fleeting, so to have one last for fifty years is quite a milestone. But to have three jobs in music, each one lasting half a century, is truly remarkable. Add to that first-name, worldwide recognition, and you've got someone very special. Drum Business takes a peek behind the curtain with a well-known name in the music industry: Vic Firth.
Born in 1930 in Winchester, Massachusetts, eight miles north of downtown Boston, Firth has been a performer, teacher, and successful businessman in music for more than sixty years. From his five-decade career with the world-renowned Boston Symphony Orchestra, to his years teaching at the New England Conservatory of Music (his alma mater), to the 2013 celebration of fifty years manufacturing drumsticks, Vic still reports to the office on a daily basis, running one of the most successful percussion companies in existence. His dry wit and New England practicality have served him well throughout his career.
From Jazz to Classical
Raised in Sanford, Maine, in the southwestern corner of the Pine Tree state, Everett Joseph Firth grew up in a musical family. His father was a trumpet player who taught music in five different schools. The younger Firth started his musical journey on the cornet at the age of four, even though his father had wanted him to play French horn. "By the age of ten, they decided that my embouchure was such a total failure that we'd better look in another direction," Firth recalls.
"My father had worked in California doing arranging, and that's what he thought I should be thinking about," Vic continues. "So I took a theory lesson, a piano lesson, a clarinet lesson, a trombone lesson, and a drum lesson every week, just to get some background—and I loved it! It wasn't like it was work. I never did anything that wasn't fun, and those lessons were fun. That's how I got started musically: in a diversified way."
Young Firth played a little bit of everything, but soon his talent surfaced in percussion. He played snare drum in the Sanford High School marching band and timpani in the concert band. "There was no orchestra in those days," he explains. "The high school was made up of about 500 students, and my dad was the band director. He had 125 in the band, which is a credit to my father."
By the time he was fifteen, Firth had formed his own twelve-piece band…and had begun playing under the name Vic. "'Everett Firth' sounds like a skin disease," he says with a laugh, "whereas Vic Firth was a little bit easier to pronounce and print. I wanted a name that would fit the band business. I booked the band all over New England playing dances, and I also had a seven-piece group for smaller occasions. I was very active in the jazz business—that's where I started out, and that's where I thought I was going. But I took a wrong turn when I was at the Conservatory!"
Firth performing with the Boston Symphony Orchestra in the 1960s
Firth had been studying percussion with Salvy Cavicchio in Maine. While still in high school, Vic began making a six-hour round-trip drive to Boston to study snare drum with George Lawrence Stone and keyboard percussion with Larry White, who was teaching at the New England Conservatory at the time. (Although White influenced Firth to pursue his studies at NEC, he left Boston before Vic began his freshman year.) During his second year at the Conservatory, Firth received a scholarship to go to the Tanglewood Music Festival in western Massachusetts, the summer home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra. "I suddenly saw all this music that I had never heard before," Firth explains. "I was very taken with it and loved it. So I focused all my time and energy on playing classical music and learning the repertoire." Firth supplemented his musical education with biweekly trips down to New York City, where he studied timpani with Saul Goodman.
"I started out in music education, because I thought it would be a good insurance policy to have, not knowing where I would go and how fast I'd get there," Firth continues. "But by the second year, I became a full-time applied major. If I didn't do an eight-hour day of practicing, something was wrong. I could play more with one hand than I do with two hands now! I worked really hard five days a week and then took the weekend to raise hell. The day before I auditioned for the symphony, I played nonstop for fourteen hours."
At the tender age of twenty, Firth auditioned for maestro Arthur Fiedler and joined the Boston Pops Orchestra. One year later, he auditioned for the conductor of the Boston Symphony, Charles Munch, and joined the BSO in 1952—while he was still a student at the conservatory. "I was the youngest player in the orchestra for about seven or eight years," Firth recalls. "I joined as a percussionist and worked my way up. Roman Szulc [who also taught at NEC] was the timpanist before me. He made a wonderful sound on the instrument, but when it came to 5/16, he always made it into 6/16. He couldn't do the contemporary music and asked me to play this piece and then that piece. I soon ended up playing timpani on everything unless they needed a full percussion section. So every door that could possibly open was opened for me, and I was prepared to go through it. I had more nerve than brains in those days!"
Firth was promoted to associate principal, then assistant principal, and finally, in 1956, he earned the coveted position of principal timpanist in the Boston Symphony, a position he held until 2002.
Vic played snare drum in the Sanford High School marching band in Maine in the mid-'40s.
Timpanist and Teacher
Firth performed with the BSO for fifty years, which adds up to approximately 10,000 concerts. "Fifty years is a nice round number," Vic says with a smile. When asked to name a favorite concert or composition, he demurs. "I had such a long stay with so many great moments, it's hard to single out any one thing. And there are so many great pieces of music. It's hard to pick out just one. There were great composers from all the different periods, and I enjoyed them all." Favorites range from Beethoven (all of his symphonies) to Bartók (Music for Strings, Percussion, and Celesta) to Stravinsky (The Rite of Spring).
Besides performing all the great orchestral literature of the past three centuries, Firth has worked with some of the world's most famous musicians. "I've played with all the greats," he says, "including [Jascha] Heifetz, [Gregor] Piatigorsky, [Arthur] Rubinstein, [Vladimir] Horowitz…and the list goes on. The conductors have been [Leonard] Bernstein, Colin Davis, [Leopold] Stokowski, [Eugene] Ormandy, [Serge] Koussevitzky…. It's like I'm making up a who's who—how could one person have possibly played with all of those great names"? But he has.
Firth in 1952, his first year with the Boston Symphony Orchestra
"I've probably played in all the best concert halls in the world several times," Firth says. "But the best hall in the world is Symphony Hall in Boston!" Modeled after the Musikvereinshaus in Vienna, which seats about 1,700, Symphony Hall has room for about 900 more people. "It's a magnificent piece of architecture to perform in," Vic says. "And the other one is in Vienna. Those are the two top halls in the world."
Another of Firth's favorite composers is Johannes Brahms. "The first symphony that I played with Boston was Brahms' Second [Symphony]," he remembers. "It was my first year in the orchestra. During my fiftieth year in the orchestra, we were on a tour of Europe with [conductor] Bernard Haitink, and we played Brahms' Second. I opened with it and closed with it. And it was just as exciting and thrilling for me to hear it and play it fifty years later as it was the first time. I had a passion for great music and found a great deal of enjoyment from playing it—being part of producing what was on that printed page.
"When I joined the BSO," Firth says, "it was the golden years of symphonic music. There were fewer people who auditioned, but the standards were much higher. It's tough for young players today. There are more talented players out there but the same number of jobs that there were fifty years ago."
In 2002, Firth retired from the Boston Symphony, finishing an impressive half-century career with one of the world's premier musical ensembles. "My dear friend Bob Zildjian used to kid me that the only reason I stayed was because I couldn't get a job anywhere else," he says, laughing. But throughout his tenure with the orchestra, Firth walked down the street from Symphony Hall to teach at the New England Conservatory of Music.
Even though he graduated from NEC in 1952, Firth had joined the faculty two years before, first as a teacher in the preparatory department, then as head of the percussion department. He also taught for years at Tanglewood, the same music festival that so influenced his own career in music. When asked to name some of his former students who have gone on to successful careers in the music business, Firth shrugs off the question and dryly quips, "I have students all over the world. So everywhere I go there's usually somebody there at the airport to pick me up. If I had known that, I would have taught more students!"
Firth was awarded an honorary Doctor of Music degree—given to individuals who have made significant contributions to the world of music—by the New England Conservatory in 1992, four decades after he received his bachelor's degree from the acclaimed school. He also holds honorary doctorates from the University of Southern Maine and the VanderCook College of Music.
Teaching led Firth to compose more than two dozen works, including popular etude books and ensembles. Students have been performing his solos for decades, and excerpts from his books The Solo Snare Drummer and The Solo Timpanist are still on All-State audition lists across the country. Published by Carl Fischer in 1964, his "Encore in Jazz"—a percussion septet scored for timpani, three snare drums, vibraphone, marimba, bongos, congas, and "dance drum setup"—was one of the first pieces to incorporate jazz into a percussion orchestra format and is still performed by high school and college ensembles today.

Sticks, Mallets, and More
It's hard to believe in this era of Internet access and overnight delivery that there was a time when finding high-quality percussion implements involved more than a phone call or Web search. But in the 1950s, there were only a few manufacturers making sticks and mallets, and the quality was not always up to the standards of say, the Boston Symphony. "I needed some good sticks for myself," Firth says, "as well as for my students at the conservatory." So he designed two models of snare drums sticks—the SD1 General and the SD2 Bolero (with a smaller tip)—and had them custom made by a wood turner in Montreal.
"The orchestra was on tour in Chicago in the early 1960s," Firth recalls, "and I went to Frank's Drum Shop. [Owner] Maurie Lishon said, 'I understand you're making drumsticks.' I told him I wasn't making them for sale, but if he wanted some, I would order an extra dozen for him. Three weeks later he called up and asked for two dozen. And that's how it began.
"Then I started making timp sticks," Firth continues. "I started off with six or seven models. Then I started to branch out, because I was playing so many contemporary pieces with the chamber music group. I needed things like double-headed sticks, and there were no commercial sticks available. Rather than complain about it, I decided to design some sticks and make them myself, for myself. Well, it grew beyond my wildest dreams. I just tried to make a quality product that I knew drummers would find musically gratifying to play with, and from those twelve pair a week, we now make 80,000 sticks a day in two shifts. How I ever got involved in this is beyond me! But it's been a great ride." The Vic Firth company is celebrating its fiftieth anniversary in 2013, yet another milestone for the New England timpanist.
Firth still remembers those early years. "I didn't formalize anything," he says. "Everything was done with a handshake, and that's the way I've run it until recently. I was the first one to start rolling sticks and guaranteeing them to be straight. One of my competitors told me I was crazy and was going to ruin the business. 'You can't guarantee a piece of wood to be straight, because Mother Nature has a say in it!' All you do is roll them, and the ones that aren't straight, you burn them.
"The second thing that I did that turned everybody back on their heels was the pitch pairing," he continues. "One day, I dropped a bunch of sticks on the floor and it sounded like a xylophone in the high register—all those different plink, plank, plunks. So I sat on the floor, tapping the sticks, and realized that if both of them had the same pitch, they had the same weight and felt the same—and when you struck any surface, they sounded the same. Everybody thought I was nuts. But it turned out there was a lot more to it than we imagined. Today, everybody has to do something to that effect, or you don't have a pair of drumsticks that are matched."
Today, Vic Firth the company manufactures more than 350 products for drummers and percussionists, ranging from signature drumsticks to marching mallets to hearing protection. Its website, vicfirth.com, is one of the leaders in the industry, emphasizing education. "One of my best talents is being able to pick good people," Firth says, singling out director of Internet activities Mark Wessels and integrated media marketing manager Andy Tamulynas for their outstanding work on the site. "When I started the business," Vic recalls, "the right people were just those who were dedicated and sincere and would do the job correctly. Now it's so technically involved, it goes beyond the jobs I hired people for then."
Although Firth's two daughters, Kelly and Tracy, worked in the family business for years, neither of them wanted to take over the company. "Since I had lots of pursuers offer to buy it, rather than just let it go wherever, I picked Zildjian," Vic says. He describes their 2010 merger as a "good romance." "And it's been very successful too," he adds. "We work with complete autonomy. I run their business the way I used to run my business." Firth continues to serve as president, attending meetings, visiting the manufacturing plant, and appearing at conventions and trade shows…all well into his eighth decade.
In addition to his successful percussion company, Firth has dabbled in several other ventures. "What you don't know is that I also ran an art gallery specializing in American paintings and American clocks," he says with a grin. "And I was a partner in a closed investment partnership. People don't know about this side of me, because I kept it away from the other business."
One of his sideline ventures that the public may be more familiar with is the Vic Firth Gourmet division. "I bought a new plant to manufacture sticks in the mid-'90s," Firth explains. "With that factory came a number of businesses, including a gourmet division. The pepper mills were so beautifully designed. I knew nothing about the market, nothing about the players, but I started applying the things that I learned with the drumsticks to the pepper grinders. I immediately got some signature chefs, Mario Batali being one of them, and added a lot of new shapes. It was kind of a diversionary strategy, and it was fun. I took great pride that we made the best pepper grinder and pepper mill in the business. But I recently sold that business to some other Maine folks, so I'm no longer in the pepper mill business."

Percussion Perspectives
How did Firth juggle playing in the orchestra, teaching at the conservatory, and running the business? "I was a workaholic," he says. "I didn't know any better. Everybody said, 'You're crazy. How can you do all that?' The symphony job was number one—you had to have your brain sharp and your wits about you to do a perfect performance every time you played—but I thrived on doing everything. You have to have the energy and enthusiasm to do it…and I did."
In addition to his "day jobs," Firth also served the Percussive Arts Society for a long time. He was on the board of directors for sixteen years (1984–1991 and 2004–2011) and held the position of treasurer for four years (1987–1990). He was also a member of the PAS Sustaining Member Advisory Council from 1994 through 1999. In 1995, PAS inducted Firth into its hall of fame at its convention in Phoenix, Arizona. Firth has also been honored with the Modern Drummer Editor's Achievement Award and the Music & Sound Retailer Lifetime Achievement Award.
With so many years in the music business, how does he view the current marketplace? "The percussion industry has grown and expanded in the last twenty years, to where it's gotten very competitive and very crowded," Firth says. "Unfortunately, I don't think the music business itself is expanding enough to accommodate all these new manufacturers. I see some rough sledding and competition ahead for everybody. Those that succeed will get stronger, and a lot of the weaker ones are going to go down. So it's going to be a tough battle for manufacturing in this country."

How would he predict the future for his namesake company? "I see Vic Firth constantly expanding," he says. "We'll continue to be the leader in the quality of the products and setting the standards for all of us. That's the way we all think around here. Right now we've got a list of new products that we're working on that fills a typewritten page."
As Vic Firth the company looks ahead to the next fifty years, Vic Firth the man looks back on a wonderful career in percussion. "People ask me how it feels to see your name on so many sticks," he says. "It doesn't really do anything to me one way or the other. I thought maybe I could contribute something to improving mallet or timpani technique. Since I had all this playing experience, why not put it to somebody else's use? That's why I did it. I would like future generations to think of me as someone who was musically equipped at the highest standards. The same standards that applied to anything I did relate to music and musicians."
Even though he doesn't like to admit it, Firth has left an indelible imprint, on both music and the music industry. What does he think will be his lasting legacy? "Probably my contribution to the Boston Symphony," he says humbly. "And…that I was a character!" Vic's laughter fills the room.

Rawat tries to kill Akshat but Guddan saves him in time. What does she do? Find out!
In the last episode of Guddan Tumse Na Ho Payega, we saw Rawat discovering a cassette, which has information about his brother-in-law Akshat (also called AJ in the show). Rawat listens to it and is convinced that AJ is evil and had hurt his sister Antara. The episode ended with him visiting Guddan to making her understand that her husband AJ is dangerous and has killed Antara.
In tonight's episode, we saw Rawat playing the cassette for Guddan. She was shocked to hear Anatara's voice on the tape, which said that she wanted to Rawat "to know the truth about AJ."Antara sounded troubled and in pain. As a result, Rawat is convinced that AJ has hurt her and even killed her, as she knew how evil he was.
But Guddan comes to AJ's rescue and says that the cassette is no solid proof to paint AJ as the villain. She tells Rawat that he can't guarantee that the secret that Antara was trying to tell him about AJ was necessarily negative. She could have been saying something nice about him instead. So he had no right to judge AJ and declare him as the culprit.
However Rawat didn't budge and maintained that if the secret that Antara wanted to reveal about AJ was positive, then she wouldn't have recorded it secretly. Plus, AJ wouldn't have hidden the cassette in his safe, where Rawat incidentally discovered it.
Guddan counters his views and says that if AJ was at fault, he wouldn't have kept the cassette hidden. She suggests that he would have destroyed it instead. She walks away after warning Rawat to stay away from AJ and make accusations only when he has some relevant proof.
Meanwhile, Rawat sneaks into AJ's house and mixes poison in his liquor bottle. After a few minutes, AJ enters the room and is surprised to see Rawat. AJ asks what brought him there and Rawat says he missed his sister and wished to have a drinking session and a game of chess with his brother-in-law. AJ obliges.
Meanwhile, Guddan runs into her half sister Revati's (also called Chutki on the show) obsessive lover Parv and discovers her photo in his wallet. She asks him to keep away from her and says that she split them up and won't ever reunite them. She walks off and Parv removes his cell phone from his pocket, which had been on and had Revati on the other line. She hears Guddan's conversation and is shocked to discover that it was her own sister that was trying to keep her away from Parv.
Guddan discovers that Rawat is having a drink with AJ and is surprised considering that the former, doesn't drink at all. She senses something amiss and rushes towards their room. AJ is about to have a sip of his drink when Guddan enters and fakes a slip, breaking AJ's glass in return. Rawat leaves and AJ tells off Guddan for her sloppy behaviour.
In order to cool off, Guddan chugs an entire glass of cold drink, without realising that she has had Rawat's leftover drink. Guddan is buzzed and at that moment her Dadi enters, asking her to help out in the kitchen. How will Guddan keep her calm?
Keep watching this space for the latest updates on Guddan Tumse Na Ho Payega.

Performer Notes
Scoring an unexpected novelty hit with the title track in 1956, Henry disappeared from the charts for four years before roaring back with two smashes in the early '60s, "(I Don't Know Why) But I Do" and "You Always Hurt the One You Love." Actually, Clarence recorded a fair number of singles for Chess' Argo subsidiary between 1956 and 1964 in the relaxed New Orleans R&B styles of his big hits. Ain't Got No Home includes 18 of these sides, most of which were previously unavailable on U.S. album. Henry developed slightly over the course of his career, adding beefier horn sections that occasionally reached back to the spirit of Dixieland. Crescent City legends like saxophonist Lee Allen and pianists Allen Toussaint and Paul Gayton crop up on these sessions; when Henry traveled to Memphis for a session, he was backed by the all-star band of Bill Justis (guitar), Boots Randolph (sax), and Floyd Cramer (piano). A bit more eccentric and unpredictable than Fats Domino, not as contemporary or inventive as, say, Lee Dorsey, Henry's vocals were consistently warm and humorous, his recordings always polished. That said, the hits remain the standouts on this collection. The rest is pleasant and fun, but don't vary much from the prototype or cause exceptional interest. A couple tracks worth noting are "I Love You, Yes I Do," an R&B ballad subsequently covered by several acts during the '60s, and the 1964 single "Long Lost and Worried," written by a young Dr. John. The informative booklet includes a neat photo of Clarence with the Beatles, ironic considering that the British Invasion made types like Clarence an anachronism. ~ Richie Unterberger

Now I'm back in my tent at the hostel...cool. The YHA had my 4th and final package. The woman asked if I was their post office, yeah...but they didn't have any room so I couldn't stay there dangit.
Day was pretty stressfull, running all around town trying to find a new bite valve for my MSR dromedary bag. Gave up and decided to throw money at the problem and buy a full blown camelback. The upside is that I'll drink more water. Even had to go to the MALL today to dry and get a map of the top end. Everything closes down at 5:30pm in the mall except on Thursdays, where it is open until 9:00pm. How un-american! The bookstore I went to didn't have the map I wanted but by the time I made it to the other one they were closed, yet I could see the map I needed in the dang windown. Now I have to go back there tomorrow. The grocery store was a zoo, I was getting annoyed with people getting in my way. I bought chips and salsa and beer as a stress relief. Glad I had it cause when I got back to the hostel I discovered that my battery charger was no longer working. I'd love to throttle the punk who stole mine from the Caravan Park in Bli Bli on the Sunshine Coast. I ordered it on the net a couple weeks ago and had it sent to my parents house and they sent it to me...and it doesn't work. I thought about throwing anything I had with a computer chip into the trash, but decided things would be working sometime soon. The PCT was a lot different in that I wasn't carrying all this techie stuff...then again, I was hardly ever in towns on the PCT...so being out west will change my perspective a great deal. Every time I get into town I keep remembering something that is broken or screwed up that needs to be fixed...gets annoying after awhile. Hopefully will make it out of town tomorrow, but I might just take it easy for a change also.
This spoke wrench has traveled from Colorado to Washington to Oregon to Australia to Washington and now back to Australia.

Macron steps up his war on identity politics
Gavin Mortimer
LUDOVIC MARIN/AFP via Getty Images
The lifestyle magazine Elle is best known for its beauty tips, fashion recommendations and recipe ideas but the latest issue in France contains what could be one of the more significant political statements this year.
In an interview with Emmanuel Macron, the publication asked what he thought of 'identity politics'. His response was robust, a welcome change to the frequent cowardice of other Western leaders when confronted with the aggressiveness of this movement. 'I see a society that is progressively racialising itself,' said the French president, adding that 'the logic of intersectionality fractures everything.'
It's not the first time that Macron has waded into the culture war. In June last year he was an exception among Western leaders at the height of the Black Lives Matter protests in unequivocally stating in a television address that 'the Republic will not erase any trace, or any name, from its history… it will not take down any statue.'
Then in the autumn he incurred the wrath of much of the Islamic world in launching a staunch defence of the Enlightenment principles after a schoolteacher in France had been beheaded by an Islamist for showing a caricature of the Prophet in class. Regrettably, Macron's words were greeted with a stony silence from many of his British and European counterparts, reinforcing the impression that Macron is waging a lone war against Islamists and identitarians.
His latest input will earn him more respect among those who worry where identity politics is leading the West. 'I am on the side of the universalist,' Macron told Elle. 'I don't recognise myself in a fight which sends each individual into his identity or his own specific characteristic.'
In particular, explained the president, he had no time for the iniquitous concept of 'white privilege' so beloved amongst identitarians in America and Britain. 'I could introduce you to young white men called Kevin, who live in Amiens (Macron's home city) or Saint-Quentin, who have immense difficulties – for differing reasons – to find employment,' he said.
Macron then uttered a statement which would be considered heresy in the eyes of most social justice warriors by claiming that, in his view, 'social difficulties are not uniquely structured by gender and the colour of skin, but also by social inequality.' He was also questioned about the ongoing debate on whether teenage girls should be allowed to wear crop-tops to school. 'When it comes to school, I'm rather 'decent clothes required', as much for the girls as the boys,' he replied. 'Everything that creates an identity, a determination to shock, has no place in school.'
The president's latest intervention on identity politics provoked a reaction from his supporters as well as his detractors. Emboldened by his president's comments, one LREM MP, François Jolivet, tabled an amendment in the National Assembly on Thursday to dissolve any association that discriminates against people 'according to their skin colour, their religion or their lifestyle'. Jolivet singled out UNEF, a student union, which earlier this year admitted barring white people from some of its events.
Some on the left, however, mocked Macron. Liberation – the Gallic equivalent of the Guardian – took offence at his comments about crop tops, accusing him of being a 'dilettante' on the question of feminism. The leader of the far-left France Insoumise, Jean-Luc Mélenchon, who earlier this year was dubbed an 'islamo-gauchiste' by the Minister of Education, Jean-Michel Blanquer, declared: 'So now we have two thinkers on female attire… Ayatollah Khamenei, and Mr Macron.'
Neither barb will bother Macron, whose interview with Elle is providential, coming just days after the wretched performance of his LREM party in the regional elections. The big winner of those polls was the centre-right, who Macron assumed no longer posed a threat after their implosion in the 2017 presidential and parliamentary contests.
But now they are back, and whoever is elected as the Republican candidate in next April's election, will know that there are many votes to be had in attacking identity politics and its growing influence within the left; just last week a French academic accused the nation's cheese of systemic racism.
The culture wars will only gain in prominence between now and the election, something that will suit Macron. He sees identity politics for what it is – a dangerous, divisive and deceitful force and he is not afraid to say so.<//>

He was a proud veteran of the Army Air Corps of WWII and a member of Onondaga Post 131 Jewish War Veterans. Dave was an avid sportsman, whether it was bowling with the Bnai Brith League, golfing at Drumlins, watching the horses at Vernon Downs or going to Turning Stone; he loved it all. David was predeceased by his first wife of 52 years, Sylvia Marcus Bunis; his brother, Samuel Bunis; and his sister, Daryl Bunis Dworkin. Survived by his second wife, Stella Sutter Bunis of Sumter, SC; his daughter and son-in-law, Marlene Sellinger-Miller and Michael Miller of Alexandria, VA; and his granddaughter, Leigh Ann Sellinger of Jersey City, NJ.

While the larger cities of Palmdale and Lancaster garner much of the attention, the surrounding unincorporated areas of Los Angeles County offer a great deal of charm and substantial economic benefit to the region.
The Antelope Valley has long been the capital of the aerospace industry and it continues its creative and collaborative efforts in training and supporting the local workforce. By partnering with industry leaders, our local educators provide trained workers to meet the needs of the workforce demand. Antelope Valley College highlights this by having what may arguably be the best placement in LA County with 90% of students finding work. To further the Valley's economy, GAVEA is taking the lead in attracting business to the AV and promoting ongoing marketing opportunities.
Entering into the Antelope Valley along the 14 Freeway you'll find the rustic, rural towns of Acton and Agua Dulce. If things seem somehow familiar here, you've likely seen the picturesque landscape in more than a few films. Most notable is the Vasquez Rocks area where scenes from everything from Blazing Saddles to the latest incarnation of Star Trek were filmed.
On the western edge of the southern Antelope Valley you'll find the communities of Leona Valley, Lake Elizabeth and Lake Hughes as well the famed California Poppy Reserve. Here, the focus is on agriculture and tourism, with top quality vineyards, fruit orchards and seemingly endless views of golden poppies each spring.
The region's eastern communities of Lake Los Angeles, Littlerock, Llano, Pearblossom and Valyermo serve as gateways to the mountain and desert regions of Los Angeles and San Bernardino County. The popular Devil's Punchbowl recreation area and the Wrightwood ski resort are both located nearby. The busy Pearblossom Highway (SR 138) links these communities and attractions while providing convenient connections with the Inland Empire, Las Vegas and beyond.
The planned High Desert Corridor stretching from the Antelope Valley Freeway (SR 14) to Interstate 15 will relieve much of the pressure from SR 138 and provide quicker access for both freight traffic and travelers. Currently undergoing the environmental review process, the project could become reality as early as the 2020's.

Los Angeles Countyis preparing to convert the soon-to-be-closed juvenile probation camp, Challenger Memorial youth Center, into a pilot residential vocational training center and will target those youth with a high risk of homelessness to receive training prioritized to antelope valley employers' needs. We appreciate the efforts of others, including Antelope Valley College, which leads a partnership training for workers in composites fabrication, airframe and powerplant work; California State University, Long Beach, which offers engineering degrees in Lancaster; the University of Antelope Valley, which teaches diverse career skills; and trade unions, which offer apprenticeship programs. We have both challenges and opportunities ahead, and i am excited and honored to work on them together."

Grazing rights in Nevada covers a number of rangeland Federal and state laws and regulations applicable to the state of Nevada. Rangelands are distinguished from pasture lands because they grow primarily native vegetation, rather than plants established by humans. Ranchers may lease or obtain permits to use portions of this public rangeland and pay a fee based on the number and type of livestock and the period for which they are on the land.

History
The United States purchased land from Mexico in 1848 known as the Mexican Cession (the southwestern region of the U.S.) as part of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. The Nevada Territory, which was partitioned in 1861 from the Utah Territory, became a state in 1864. Since then, the US government has continuously owned land in Nevada, including the Bunkerville Allotment. Federal rangelands in Nevada have been since 1934 managed principally by either the Bureau of Land Management, its predecessor the United States Grazing Service, or the United States Forest Service.  Currently, 56,961,778 acres of land in Nevada are managed by the BLM. Over 18,000 grazing permits and leases are known to exist on BLM managed public lands. Season of use and forage use are stipulated on the permits and leases; grazing control can be targeted.

Federal rangeland laws

Laws that apply to management of public land grazing are generally codified in Title 43 of the United States Code and include the Taylor Grazing Act of 1934 (TGA), the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, the Endangered Species Act of 1973, the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976, the Public Rangelands Improvement Act of 1978, and the Wild and Free-Roaming Horses and Burros Act of 1971.

In 1933, Edward T. Taylor, a Representative from Colorado, reintroduced a bill to set up the grazing bureau or service in the Department of Interior to administer range lands. The TGA regulates grazing on public lands (excluding in Alaska) to improve rangeland conditions. The Grazing Service was merged with the General Land Office in 1946 to form the Bureau of Land Management (BLM).

Prior to the enactment of the TGA, an open-range system existed on public domain land. The TGA was enacted by Congress to prevent overgrazing of rangelands, and authorized the permitted use of lands designated as available for livestock grazing while specifying that grazing permits convey no right, title, or interest to such lands. This definition was unanimously upheld by the United States Supreme Court in 2000. The TGA allows the BLM to increase or decrease the utilization of a grazing area in response to changing ecological conditions, and specifies that permits are subject to periodic review at least every 10 years, with holders having preferential rights to renew "in the discretion of the Secretary of the Interior."

Nevada rangeland laws
An article written by University of Nevada Cooperative Extension Educators Gary McCuin and Steve Foster, highlights the Nevada Open Range Law of 1893, a state statute under which "owners of ... livestock running at large on the ranges or
commons" were exempted from state civil liability for trespass, and the open range was defined as "all unenclosed land outside of cities and towns upon which cattle, sheep or other domestic animals by custom, license, lease or permit are grazed". However, the federal Taylor Grazing Act has further regulated grazing on federal land since 1934, and violators may be subject to federal civil and criminal liability.

Federal rangeland grazing regulations
The Bureau of Land Management manages about 167 million acres (676,000 km²) of publicly owned rangeland in the United States, with the United States Forest Service managing approximately 95 million acres (380,000 km²) more. Permittees on federal rangelands are required to pay a fee, and the permit cannot exceed ten years but is renewable.

Any US citizen or validly licensed business can apply for a BLM grazing permit or lease. To do so, one must either buy or control private property (known as "base property") that has been legally recognized by the Bureau as having preference for the use of public land grazing privileges, or acquire property that has the capability to serve as base property and then apply to the BLM to transfer the preference for grazing privileges from an existing base property to the acquired property (which would become the new "base property").

Federal rangeland regulatory changes in 1993
The grazing rules for the land went through changes over the years, including some updated grazing rules in 1993 in the Gold Butte and Bunkerville land area of Nevada. Among other issues, the 1993 rules were changed to protect the vulnerable desert tortoise.  Other rules included limits to the number of cattle allowed in certain areas to protect the lands from the severe overgrazing caused by less regulation in previous years and to help the land recover from recent wildfires. Currently there are no grazing permits on the Bunkerville allotment, and any livestock on that land are there illegally.

Bundy standoff

The Bundy standoff is a 20-year legal dispute between the United States Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and cattle rancher Cliven Bundy in southeastern Nevada over unpaid grazing fees that eventually developed into an armed confrontation between protesters and law enforcement. The dispute began in 1993, when in protest against changes to grazing rules, Bundy declined to renew his permit for cattle grazing on BLM-administered lands near Bunkerville, Nevada.  In 1998, Bundy was prohibited from grazing his cattle on the Bunkerville Allotment by the United States District Court for the District of Nevada in United States v. Bundy. In July 2013, the BLM complaint was supplemented when federal judge Lloyd D. George ordered that Bundy refrain from trespass on federally administered land in the Gold Butte, Nevada, area in Clark County.

On March 27, 2014, 145,604 acres of federal land in Clark County, Nevada were temporarily closed for the "capture, impound, and removal of trespass cattle". A trespass cattle roundup commenced on April 5, an arrest was made on April 6. On April 12, a group of protesters, some of whom were armed advanced on what the BLM described as a "cattle gather." Sheriff Doug Gillespie negotiated with Cliven Bundy and newly confirmed BLM director, Neil Kornze, who elected to release the cattle and de-escalate the situation.

Federal grazing legal cases

United States v. Gardner
Cliff Gardner, a defendant in an illegal cattle grazing court case in Nevada, United States v. Gardner, drew comparisons to his case when he said, "I think Cliven is taking a stand not only for family ranchers, but also for every freedom-loving American, for everyone. I've been trying to resolve these same types of issues since 1984." Gardner argued and lost on states' rights, similar to Bundy, and eventually served time for ignoring court orders and contempt. The Gardner case is cited in Bundy court filings. In United States v. Gardner, decided in the District Court and later affirmed by the United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit, the Gardners did not contest that they grazed livestock without a permit, nor the amount of the fee assessed. Instead, they asserted that the Nevadan lands where they grazed did not belong to the United States, and therefore the Forest Service did not have jurisdiction to regulate use of the lands or levy fees for unauthorized activities within them. In March 2002, Cliff Gardner was sentenced to a month in a Reno halfway house, along with a $5,000 fine and a year of probation.

United States v. Bundy
The case of United States v. Bundy played out over many years in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada. It involved court orders, injunctions, and notices. Bundy argued pro se that the land belongs to the state, while the Bureau of Land Management was represented by the US Attorney's Office for Nevada and the United States Department of Justice. The court ruled that the land on which Bundy was grazing his cattle was indeed owned by the federal government, that he had not been paying to use it as he should have been, that Bundy and his cattle were trespassing, and that the government had the right to enforce the injunctions against trespass. The court found that Bundy repeatedly violated the court orders and continued to have his cattle trespass.

United States v. Hage
Elko County commissioner, Nevada rancher, and conservative Republican political activist Demar Dahl "notes that Bundy might benefit from following Nye County rancher Wayne Hage, who won a protracted battle with the federal government by successfully arguing that he had the right to graze his cows within two miles of water sources he developed." In a similar case to Bundy's, ranchers in 2007 were sued by the Justice Department for trespassing on public domain lands in Nevada. The ranchers were alleged to have repeatedly grazed livestock without federal permits, despite repeated trespass notices from the BLM and the Department of Agriculture's Forest Service. In 2013, the court found in favor of the ranchers for all other charges, including water rights, grazing rights, and all but two livestock trespass charges in United States v. Wayne Hage. In the ruling, the judge said, "government officials ... entered into a literal, intentional conspiracy to deprive the Hages not only of their permits but also of their vested water rights. This behavior shocks the conscience of the Court and provides a sufficient basis for a finding of irreparable harm to support the injunction described at the end of this Order."

Everybody in the survival community thinks they are prepared for a SHTF scenario. When everyone else is looting and losing their minds, we'll be good to go.
However, you may really only be properly prepared for the initial phase. In a long-term survival scenario your supplies will eventually run out. Nobody has enough supplies stored to last forever. This will mean finding other people with supplies and trading for what you need.
This risky venture is a big part of survival. The other person might try to rob you or follow you back to camp. Take every precaution when you head out to barter.
Stick to business. You aren't there to make a friend. Tell them what you have and what's needed. Get the merchandise and get home. Also, be smart and bring a weapon just in case things go South.
Before you begin, it's important to understand the principle behind successful bartering. You have probably heard the phrase "a win-win situation". This is what you are looking for. Things can go bad quickly if anybody feels like they didn't get a good deal. However, you can't just give away your most valuable supplies.
It makes no sense to trade ammunition for food if you need it just as much. The key to good bartering is to give away something that has no value to you, but a lot of value to somebody else. It's smart to stock up on items that you'll never use that other people may want. Think about items that people crave that will be hard to find when the SHTF.
Alcohol – Yes, you will need to keep booze on the shelf. Alcohol does nothing for you but cause dehydration, mess up your liver, and dumb you down. You will need to stay in top physical and mental condition to survive. However, other people will turn to the bottle to deal with the stress of survival.
It can be a great bartering item if you can leave the alcohol alone. There is no need to go for top shelf. Cheap whiskey will be worth almost as much as the finest scotch when the SHTF. Stock small bottles to give you more trading flexibility.
Cigarettes/Chewing Tobacco – My whole family consists of non-smokers, but you can bet we will have a few cartons in a survival scenario. This is an effective bartering item for the same reasons as alcohol.
People feel that tobacco relieves stress and also it's highly addictive. Some people will do almost anything for a pack of cigarettes.
Chocolate/Candy – Something sweet will make your day when the diet consists of rice, beans, and whatever critters you can catch. It has very little nutritional value, but people crave the sweet fix. In addition, candy is great for keeping kids happy.
This will be a huge priority when the SHTF. Parents will want to give their kids a good life, but the closest they may come is a chocolate bar. Just keep them in a cool spot so they don't melt.
Luxury Toiletries – While hygiene is vital in a survival scenario, there are certain toiletry items that aren't necessary. Products like shampoo, deodorant, cologne, perfume, hair spray, disposable razors, and hair gel serve no real hygiene purpose.
However, they might make someone's day if you can make a trade. These items can make them feel like a real person again for just a moment.
Prescription Medications – You may stumble upon a home or pharmacy that has bunches of medications. Usually this medication is of no value to the person that finds it. However, grab that medication instead of walking out empty-handed.
You may never need it, but might stumble upon somebody else that must have that medication. This makes for a great bartering item.
Coffee/Tea – Some people feel that caffeine is every bit as addictive as alcohol and tobacco. It also has a nostalgia about it. There is something special about sitting down with your family for breakfast and enjoying a cup of coffee or tea.
However, caffeine will dehydrate you. You can't afford to be dehydrated when water is scarce. Plan to trade the coffee to get things you truly need.
Books – While I feel that exercising your mind is every bit as important as exercising your body, some books can be traded. I have a whole collection of books on survival subjects that I know cover to cover.
I have read these books so many times, there is no need for me to keep them. Someone else may be in desperate need of survival knowledge. This is a great opportunity for a trade. Keep some fiction novels around, but you only need a few of the good ones to stay entertained. The rest you should be able to trade to help somebody else raise their spirits.
Bartering is one of the best ways to get the supplies you need as time goes on. It's vital that you know the right way to barter. Of course, you can barter with surplus items. If you have 10,000 rounds of ammunition, you could probably spare a few.
However, it's best to focus on items for which you have no use. The above list is just the beginning. Do some brainstorming to think of items that you and your family don't need, but that someone else might want. Look for that win-win situation and help somebody else while you help yourself.

Bayeux Tapestry Facts for Kids
BENNA CRAWFORD
... Hulton Archive/Hulton Archive/Getty Images
The Middle Ages was a time of great discovery and political turmoil in Europe. The historical record of much of that period is incomplete, so a work of art that is essentially a documentary of the time is incredibly valuable. The Bayeux Tapestry is the most important surviving relic of the 11th century. Even so, the end of it is missing, leaving the coronation of William the Conqueror out of the record and a mystery about the contents of the panels' last scenes.
Tapestry as Embroidery
A Survivor for 900 Years
Art as Political Propaganda
A Record of Men, Stitched by Women
1 Tapestry as Embroidery
The Bayeux Tapestry isn't really a tapestry. Tapestries are woven entirely on looms – the images are woven right into the design. While the Bayeux Tapestry was created on hand-loomed fabric, the pictures on it are embroidered. The needlework was executed in wool threads. Nothing specific is known about who made the tapestry, although speculation includes a queen, a convent of nuns, a professional artisans' guild or just a large number of women who worked non-stop to complete the work.
2 A Survivor for 900 Years
The tapestry is 230 feet long. However, it's less than 20 inches high. This brings up an obvious question. Where would you hang such a long skinny shape? This one hung for at least 400 years in Notre-Dame Cathedral in Bayeux. The tapestry is like a giant embroidered scroll that tells a story when it is fully laid out. Yet, few castle walls could provide the gallery to view the scores of scenes depicted on its panels. The tapestry itself is the subject of repeated dramas throughout the years. It was rescued again and again from wars and uprisings, hidden from conquering armies, stolen (and returned) by Napoleon, and nearly destroyed more than once for its yards of cloth.
3 Art as Political Propaganda
The tapestry was commissioned a few years after the Battle of Hastings in 1066; in this battle, the Norman French conquered the English Saxons. It was probably commissioned in 1070 by Odo of Bayeux, a bishop and the half-brother of William the Conqueror, who defeated the Saxon King Harold to seize control of England in the Battle of Hastings. The tapestry may have been intended for the dedication of William's cathedral. It was certainly a claim to victory and to the throne.
4 A Record of Men, Stitched by Women
The tapestry is on display today in Bayeux, France. The linen background is now a light brown color because of its extreme age. The original embroidery threads retain their eight colors, the dyes available when the tapestry was made. Historians who study the tapestry find it one of the clearest sources of information about medieval arms and warfare in existence. The story on it covers preparations, battles, defeats and triumphs and reveals a lot about life in the 11th century. The images include 626 people, but they only depict three women. The images also include nearly 200 horses, 35 dogs, more than 500 other animals and birds, 33 buildings, 37 ships, 37 trees and 57 Latin inscriptions.

We consider the sufficient conditions for asymptotic stability and instability of certain higher order nonlinear difference equations with infinite delays in finite-dimensional spaces. With the aid of the general comparison condition on the right-hand side function , we generalize the stability and instability result.
In the field of statistics, people get used to mark the number of sample as discrete parameter not continuous for applied meaning. There are some discrete models in real life such as cobweb model of demand and supply and national income model, which could not be described by differential equation under the factual conditions. Then difference equations arise and are widely used in areas such as information transmission and population models [1–4].
During the period of development of mathematics together with information revolution, there are many discrete dynamic systems to describe the real problem, such as the monographs [5, 6]. For example, the book Liber Abaci, written by the famous mathematician Leonardo di Pisa, stated the so-called Fibonacci sequence to the problem of rabbits' number. To march the development of mathematic discrete models in application, difference equations raised the form of higher orders or with delays; see [7–9]. Besides, the stability of the equilibrium is always a great topic to study, such as [10–13] and the references therein. Also, there are some researchers engaged in studying the stability analysis of the equations with delay; see [14, 15].
As the simplest case, the first order difference equation has been paid much attention to and widely investigated in the literature.
In this paper, we consider a higher order difference equation with delays where , is a Banach space, and , are functions on and , respectively. We assume that (2) satisfies the initial condition , , which means that the solution of system (2), , holds for , , . In addition, we suppose that the zero solution is the unique equilibrium; in other words, for some real values and all if and only if . Yao and Meng in  studied the similar system and gave some sufficient conditions to guarantee that the solution satisfies a contained equation under the method of a discrete inequality. We note that the system (2) always has solution at the time given by It is easy to see that is defined by the solution .
Definition 1. The zero solutions of the system (2) are stable if, for every , , there exists such that every solution of the system with the initial condition satisfies the condition , for all .
Definition 2. The zero solutions of the system (2) are asymptotically stable if it is stable and, under a constant existing, for any solution of (2) such that .
Definition 3. The zero solutions of system (2) are unstable if it is not stable, that is, if there are numbers , such that for every there is a solution with the initial condition and there exists a number such that .
The system we consider is a general form of higher order difference equations without the concrete formula of . If we entitle the function to a special form, such as the form of logistic function, then the stability of equilibrium points can be used to discuss the population model.
Denote by Using the method in , we can obtain the following theorem.
Theorem 4. Under the hypothesises (C1, C2, and C3), system (2) is asymptotically stable if , , , and .
Proof. Since , we can choose two real numbers , such that , From (7), it is easy to note that Next, we consider solution of the system (2) with the initial condition such that , , . According to the definition, we will prove the following inequality: which is obvious to hold for .
Assuming that (9) still holds for , , in addition to and , then we estimate the solution at the () step by (4).
By the inequalities (8) and (10), we can obtain the following conclusion: which implies that inequality (9) holds for the step . Therefore, inequality (9) holds for all . Since , we can obtain that as and derive the conclusion. Hence, the proof is completed.
Theorem 5. Let system (2) satisfy the same conditions as in Theorem 4. Then, the zero solutions are asymptotically stable if , , and .
Because of the sufficient condition in this theorem, we can derive which proves that (14) holds for . From estimation (14) and , it follows the asymptotic stability of the zero solutions of system (2). The proof is ended.
Apart from the instability comparison condition defined in the whole state space in , we state that the condition is satisfied only in some subset of the state space . Thus, we introduce a convex set , to be an invariant set for system (2). Further, for every , the solution with the initial condition (3) starting in : , , satisfies for all .
The following three theorems are our main results on instability of the system (2).
Theorem 6. Under conditions , system (2) is unstable if for all .
Proof. Let the arbitrary initial conditions satisfy Note that , for all .
Repeating the above procedure, for every step , we can obtain the inequality of the form where the functions , are defined by the following two propositions.(a)The functions , satisfy the following relations: which can be directly proved by the method of induction in .(b)The functions , satisfy the following estimations: where is defined by (12).
The proof of Proposition (b) is as follows. We will prove the left-hand side inequality (27) by induction on each set , and the right-hand side can be proved similarly.
It is obvious that the assertion is true for the step . Assume that the assertion holds until the step . For every , using Proposition (a), (24) and by induction assumption, we have If is on the end of the set , that is, , , we have If is inside , so that , , , and , , which implies , then we have which proves the left-hand side inequality of (27).
To prove inequality (28), using (26) and by induction, we assume that the inequality holds for all steps . For the step , by the same method of induction, if and is on the end of the set so that , we have If is inside , in other words, , and , , such that , then we have Given , we obtain as desired.
Next, we will prove Theorem 6 based on the above propositions. Let . From the estimation (24) and the estimations (27), (28) of Proposition (b), we have two cases.
Case (i). If , we have where . Therefore, which gives as and then go to infinity.
Therefore, there are a number and a large number such that . By Definition 3, if and , the zero solutions are unstable.
Case (ii). If , using the estimation (24) and the estimations (27), (28) of Proposition (b) again, we then obtain where . Therefore, which gives as and then goes to infinity. Thus, as in Case (i), we prove the instability of zero solutions. The proof is ended.
According to Theorem 6, we can analogize the following theorems.
Theorem 7. Assume that conditions , where we estimate inequality (24), hold in the system (2). Then, system (2) is unstable if for all .
Proof. Let and . In this case for the inequality we obtained in Theorem 6 we have which goes to infinity as , go to infinity.
By Definition 3 of the instability, it is easy to see that the zero solutions are unstable. The theorem is proved.
Theorem 8. Assume that conditions , where we estimate inequality (24), hold in the system (2). Then, system (2) is asymptotically unstable if .
Proof. When , in addition to the inequality we can obtain which shows that the zero solutions are asymptotically unstable. This ends the proof.
In this section, we state two examples concerning the above theorems in Sections 2 and 3, respectively.
Example 9. The difference control system with higher order term where , , is a control argument. We note that the system is stabilizable when there is a linear bounded operator such that the control , if the system without control is asymptotically stable.
Next, we can take a convex cone with the form of which is the invariant set for system.

F1 figures say Vettel could quit
Experienced paddock dwellers are contemplating the notion that Sebastian Vettel might soon call time on his F1 career.
The German won four titles for Red Bull before switching to Ferrari last year, but those who have worked closest with Vettel, who is now 29, sense a change.
"Some things we have seen before with him, but it has been a bit more uncharacteristic than in previous years," said Vettel's 2014 teammate, Daniel Ricciardo.
The Australian is referring not only to Vettel's moving under braking that cost him the podium in Mexico, but his foul-mouthed antics over the radio which earned him an investigation and near-penalty by the governing FIA.
Vettel's former boss Christian Horner has also sensed Vettel's change.
"It is not an attribute he had when he drove for us," he said. "Obviously his frustration he is vocalising, and everybody can hear that."
Curiously, both Vettel and Ferrari are not willing to discuss the terms of a new contract for the German beyond 2017, during a season in which teammate Kimi Raikkonen has regularly looked the better Ferrari driver.
Former F1 driver and now veteran commentator Martin Brundle said: "I'm beginning to think Sebastian Vettel won't be in formula one for the long haul.
"He came so young, he broke so many records. I just watch him at work and he's lost his mojo."
And an unnamed figure told the Times newspaper this week: "Seb could just walk away.
"He has won four titles and he has nothing to prove. He is a private man with a family. He doesn't crave the spotlight and he may think he has had enough.
"It would be a shame, but he could do it."
