The next Society meeting will be on Wednesday 8th May at 7.15pm in the lounge of St Mary's Church, Church Street, Eastwood, NG16 3BS. The lounge is at the back of the church and the car park can be accessed by the driveway just before the church as you are approaching from the town centre.
Our speaker Nick Ceramella will be coming from Rome to give a talk which is entitled:
"Compelling attraction of Italy: Lorenzo's lifelong pilgrimage up and down the country" ( Part Two: 1919-1922)
David Herbert Lawrence, the world famous, screwy genius, remains fresh as the odour of elderflowers to dip into, but is little read in England except by literature students – though in 1960 we passed around copies under the desks of the newly uncensored "Lady Chatterley's Lover", open at the naughty John Thomas bits, during Applied Mathematics lessons.
Supposedly known as "that mucky man" in Eastwood, he seems to have aroused hatred wherever he went, presumably because his plots and characters were immediately recognisable on the surface from real life. His penetrating, sensitive and imaginative interior portraits then only make things worse – whether believed to be true or false to those depicted. The people of Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire have exacted their revenge. Haggs Farm, potentially the greatest shrine, remains boarded up and private. The Nottingham D H Lawrence Centenary Book Fair, which Scarthin Books attended, along with, for instance, a company from Italy, attracted about thirty visitors a day.
In 1917, managing to evade war service and with his German wife, he lived for a year just up the valley from us in the beautifully situated Mountain Cottage,built on the site of a lead-mine near Middleton by Wirksworth, overlooking the wild Via Gellia, which seemed to him like the Navel of England. Here he worked on Studies in Classic American Literature, penned a couple of short stories – one of which, Wintry Peacock, is so apparently documentary that it reveals to the world that an Ible farmer left behind an illegitimate child during his war service in Belgium (well, at any rate I can now reveal this Lawrencian accusation to the World Wide Web!) and posted wonderfully lyrical letters to friends. Perhaps fifteen years ago, I enthused about all this and read out the letters to the Tawney House Luncheon Club. Flushed, I sat down to warm applause. The chairman's encouraging request brought an old lady to her feet. "I was a girl when he was there. He used to come walking, bold as brass, down through Middleton to the Lord Nelson, but we had nothing to do with him. None of us would so much as pass the time of day with him. I had two brothers in the war and there he was HIDING in that cottage while our men were DYING in France. We'd no time for the likes of him, no time at all!"
Lawrence buffs will probably know with greater accuracy than I of that legendary purchase, by another dealer, of a cheap box of books at a Nottingham auction, all inscribed by DHL to that famous girlfriend… "Oh, the letters, we put those in the bin…", the pursuit, fruitless, to the council depot, the sale of books to an American university. We have ourselves bought books of his sister Ada, rescued from a bonfire. Recently, we were abruptly awoken when about to condemn a boot full of battered school text books and Sunday school prizes by the casual aside, "Oh, that one was Lawrence's, wasn't it". Some years ago a patrician lady ushered into our shop an old woman who I remember as being of immense girth, squat, stick supported, out of breath (I apologise if this memory is an implant). Imperiously her minder demanded a chair – quickly (before it's too late!). Occupied, the chair became a throne! "THIS (or did she say 'THAT') is MRS WILLIAM HOPKIN!!" Given no other clues, even 'deep thought' would reply "errm…".
Oh, and by the way, Sir Clifford lived at Alderwasley Hall, now, appropriately, a special school.
During 1998 we have purchased books from the "son of Lady Chatterley's Lover", a gentleman whose father was a gamekeeper on the Eastwood Hall Estate [quoted from memory] and who used to meet and converse with DHL – The elder brother of our client may know more, if tracked down.
P.S. DHL's nephew Bert (named after him) strenuously denies the existence of the above- mentioned "bonfire"!
And Steve Hopkins writes: I think you're a little hard on DHL – he 'avoided' the war because he was seriously ill with 'consumption'. In fact he was given a total exemption from military service after examination at Bodmin in June 1915. All this is detailed on p332 of vol 2 of the Cambridge biography.

Terry Needham has kindly supplied us with the following article, first published in the Newsletter of the Lawrence Society a few years ago.
IT WAS ALL VERY DIFFERENT THEN
Members of the D. H. Lawrence Society will most certainly be totally unaware of the existence in the 1950s of a locally based forerunner to their organisation. This august body was the Lawrence Circle of Ilkeston, Derbyshire whose total membership consisted of three (occasionally four) schoolboys from Ilkeston Grammar School.
Meetings between these would-be "bookish" boys took place on a very "ad hoc" basis in each others' houses and usually consisted of poetry readings, discussions of various literary works and general chats about such matters. I remember well writing to George Bernard Shaw, and getting a reply card from his secretary Blanche Patch, and to J. B. Priestley who kindly replied but asked that I spell his name correctly in future! We even had a rubber stamp made bearing the name The Lawrence Circle but never quite knew what to use it on. This arrangement existed for some three or four years until the real world interrupted and we went our separate ways for ever, one to read history at Cambridge, one to read Law at Nottingham and myself to join the 'other ranks' in the Royal Air Force.
What had started this obsession with DHL which still prevails with me till this day some 38 years later? Well, in my case it was the simple act of picking up a copy of The Rainbow in Ilkeston Public Library, wondering who exactly this vaguely familiar Lawrence chap was and then opening the book to discover in the first paragraph the reference to"… the church-tower at Ilkeston in the empty sky." Overcome by the revelation that here was a 'serious' author writing about where I lived and what I knew, I read on and on and on…
Thus one by one the novels were read and appreciated, followed by a determination to discover all I possibly could about Lawrence. This lead me to a new book by Harry T. Moore, " The Life and Work of D. H. Lawrence" published in 1951 and described at the time as the first definitive biography – a fascinating read which taught me a lot but which contained various, mainly topographical, errors. With the brashness of youth we wrote to Mr Moore c/o the publishers and some months later received a reply, gracious to a fault and thanking us for our comments. This was the first of a number of letters which went back and forth over the Atlantic during the next year or two and we did indeed help Harry T. Moore with some basic research in Ilkeston and Cossall.
Imagine my delight when he gave us an acknowledgement in the updated version of his biography "The Intelligent Heart" in 1955 – our claim to fame. Unfortunately I have no copies of what we wrote to him but do have two airmail letters he sent to me, full of interesting observations. I'm sure that Harry T. Moore, the doyen of American biographers for many years, never realised that he was writing to a trio of 17- or 18-year old youths.
It really was a different world in the 1950s and reading about Lawrence now one realises how little was known then and how much we have learnt from the assiduous scholarship and writings available to us during the last thirty or more years. The industry grows, the books proliferate – good bad and indifferent, but now we have the wonderful new biography by John Worthen "The Early Years", this being Volume 1 of the new Cambridge three volume biography. This is surely the definitive work and offers us all we need to know – what a triumph of research and writing!
What has prompted these ramblings? One of my spare time interests was until recently the Editorship of the Newstead Abbey Byron Society Newsletter and I attended a Social Evening when my friend Pamela Lewis together with Joan McCluskey and Rosemary Howard came along and spoke on the "Nottingham Connection" of Lawrence and Byron. Talking afterwards to Rosemary and to my friend "the fount of all knowledge" Lucy Edwards, I revealed this story and was prevailed upon to commit it to paper.
I think we may have lost a lot of our values and standards in recent years but we have certainly gained in some fields. The world of literary scholarship and debate is now so organised and widespread that the reader is able to learn something new every day. Nothing however can ever replace a young man's sense of discovery, the feeling of satisfaction in writing to this American professor, in aquiring new knowledge – and as I read my first editions of Women in Love, Sons and Lovers, The White Peacock and all, I still feel the same way now about the young man who left Eastwood and "the country of my heart" to travel, to write these great books and to conquer the world with his genius.

I'd like to get a few honest opinions on where the market is headed after the criminal acts in NYC. I thought we were poised for a gradual recovery; now I'm not so sure.
The markets will react sharply downward. Stability is factored into the price of stocks. For stocks to be a worthwhile investment, a long stable period is needed for a company to bring profits to the table for investors to realize some meaningful return on investment. Up until now, the expected stability was measurable in decades. This act of terrorism reduces the expected stability markedly. Maybe 6 months or a year from now, stability expectations can go up some, but until they do, the market will head south and stay there. Stocks with high P/E ratios are to be the hardest hit since they are more heavily leveraged on there being stable economies to maintain double digit growths. Ironically, after tomorrow, the P/E ratios of many companies will be at more realistic levels than they have been in a long time.
-- private (marketgeek@aol.com), September 12, 2001.
The market is headed in the direction of unfettered capitalism. Corporations merging, even mega-corporations merging. Smaller corporations filing for bankruptcy. Large, government-favorable corporations receiving multi-million-dollar bailouts.
Capital is gravitating even faster towards itself. Much like the separation of classes amongst citizens, business is becoming highly polarized in many sectors. Many rich people working together to become even more rich, at the expense of investors and small to medium-sized businesses.
Legislation in the past year or so, combined with current and future legislation, favors mega-corporations. Loss of civil rights and liberties will not affect these businesses. Our government knows how important it is (for their own ulterior motives) to keep the U.S. economy propped up. Whether or not it is legitimate, they care not.
Just take a look at the heavy insider trading of American Airlines and United Air Lines in the days PRECEDING the terrorist attacks. Make your own conclusions upon reading the linked article. My intuition tells me that article is based upon truth, and that truth HURTS.
The stock market is one of the best and easiest ways for rich business executives to become even more rich. There are supposedly laws against insider trading, but time and time again, it happens.
My ultimate opinion on the direction of the market is down, and for at least another whole year. The problems within the market itself cannot be remedied by time. Serious reform in ethics and the application of business law (like antitrust) must happen for the market to improve.

Airbnb Runs 'Illegal Hotels,' Hotel Industry Study Claims
This story originally appeared on Fortune.com.
Is the fastest-growing travel site taking short cuts to the top? That's the conclusion of a new Penn State University analysis of Airbnb bookings– funded by a major hotel group.
The study was funded by the American Hotel & Lodging Association (AH&LA), a trade group that is in direct conflict with Airbnb. The report found that nearly 30% ($378 million) of Airbnb's revenue in in 12 of the nation's largest metropolitan statistical areas came from "full-time operators," with rentals available 360 days a year. Each of these operators averaged more than $140,000 in revenue during the period studied, the research concluded.

These units essentially amount to an "illegal" hotel — and one that puts traditional hotels at a competitive disadvantage, according to Katherine Lugar, AH&LA's president. "Our industry thrives on competition each and every day, operating on a level and legal playing field," she says, claiming these gray market hotel operators are using Airbnb as "a platform for dodging taxes, skirting the law and flouting health and safety standards."
The research comes on the heels of fresh numbers that suggest Airbnb is the fastest-growing travel site on the Internet. The survey, released by SimilarWeb, found Airbnb rose 339 places in rankings over a year and is now "an established star" in the travel sector. The online accommodation community racked up an average of 94.9 million monthly visits last year, engaging users for an average of 11 minutes per session, visiting an average of 13 pages. It was also last year's fastest-growing site, according to SimilarWeb.
"The Penn State study shows that the hotel industry gets what it pays for, which in this case is a specious study intended to mislead and manipulate," said Airbnb spokesman Nick Papas. "Airbnb is succeeding for the very simple reason that our hosts — the vast majority of whom are middle-class people sharing their homes in order to create supplemental income — provide guests authentic, transformative experiences."
Related: Uber is Testing an On-Demand Helicopter Service
There's a bigger picture here. Trade organizations typically fund studies like this when they have a long-range goal — in this case, probably regulation at the federal level that would rein in sharing sites like Airbnb. It's legislation that Airbnb, currently valued at $24 billion, will no doubt fight with its considerable resources, not to mention the tens of thousands of satisfied customers and hosts.
Among Penn State's findings:
The cities with the largest number of full-time operators include New York and Miami on the East Coast and Los Angeles and San Francisco on the West Coast.
Individuals or entities renting out two or more residential properties on Airbnb account for 17% of hosts in the twelve cities studied, and this rapidly growing segment of "multi-unit operators" drives nearly 40% of the revenue in those markets, which equates to more than half a billion dollars a year.
The growth in what it calls Airbnb "mega-operators" (those renting out three or more units) was the largest, increasing from $16.1 million in September 2014 to $29.2 million in September 2015, an 81.4 percent increase. Airbnb mega-operators increased from 1,171 in September 2014 to 2,193 in September 2015, an 87.3% increase.
"The study shows an explosion in activity among multi-unit hosts and the rise of full-time operators in each of the 12 markets we analyzed," said John O'Neill, director of the Center for Hospitality Real Estate Strategy at Pennsylvania State University, who directed the research. "Operators renting out three or more units represent a disproportionate share of revenue with only 7% driving more than $325 million in the period studied."
Related: These Airlines Have the Worst Safety Ratings
Papas, the Airbnb spokesman, sad the report uses misleading data "to make false claims and attack middle class families who share their homes and use the money they earn to pay the bills."He added that "the overwhelming majority" of Airbnb hosts are middle-class people who occasionally share only the home in which they live. "While Airbnb hosts keep 97% of the price they charge for their listings," he adds, "hotels take most of the money they earn out of the community."
In the lodging sector, cities have been slow to react to the sharing economy. Two of the most prominent standouts include San Francisco, which recently asked Airbnb for help in cracking down on illegal hotels, and New York, with which Airbnb recently agreed to share booking data in an apparent effort to prevent further regulation.

Karelska (karjalan kieli) är ett östersjöfinskt språk inom den uraliska språkfamiljen. Runt 35 000 talare har karelska som modersmål.

Språkets ställning
Karelskan räknas idag som ett eget språk. Historiskt har dock karelskan i vissa perioder räknats som dialekt av finskan, till exempel av politiska rörelser som velat förena traditionellt karelskspråkiga områden med Finland. I de finländska delarna av det historiska Karelen talas idag dialekter som även de kallas karelska, men som är mer påverkade av riksfinska. Karelskan är det tredje största språket i den östersjöfinska språkgruppen, efter finska och estniska. Majoriteten av språkets talare utgörs av etniska kareler som bor i Karelska republiken och i Tver-området (Tverkarelen)  i Ryssland, samt omkring 10 000  i Finland.

År 1998 röstades ett förslag ned i Karelska republikens parlament om att göra karelska till ett av republikens officiella språk. Språkets framtidsutsikter är inte omöjliga, men osäkra, eftersom de flesta ungdomar lika gärna talar ryska. Andra väljer att lära sig finska i stället för karelska. Det kan också tilläggas att karelskan vid vissa perioder har ansetts "ful" eller "lantlig", vilket kan vara en av anledningarna till att språket inte överförts från den äldre generationen till den yngre, och att det periodvis under Josef Stalins förföljelser var förbjudet att tala karelska.

Karelskan är sedan 2009 officiellt icke-territoriellt minoritetsspråk i Finland.

Det utkommer två tidningar på karelska: "Vienan Viesti" på egentlig karelska samt Oma Mua ("eget land", jämför finskans oma maa) på livvi-dialekten. På båda dialekterna utkommer det skolböcker och undervisningsmaterial. Man kan läsa karelska i grundskolan, vid universitetet i Petrozavodsk eller vid universitetet i Joensuu.

Alfabet
Många försök att skapa ett enhetligt standardspråk har gjorts, men inte lyckats speciellt bra då de olika dialekterna är så pass olika. Karelskans alfabet var en tid baserat på det kyrilliska alfabetet, men skrivs idag med latinska bokstäver. Enligt en lag som stiftades av Vladimir Putin, måste alla officiella språk skrivas med det kyrilliska alfabetet, men eftersom karelskan inte är ett officiellt språk, berörs inte karelskan av denna lag. Språket lärs idag därför fortfarande ut i skolorna med det latinska alfabetet.

Karelska alfabetet från 2007:

Finska språket ersattes 1939 i Karelska republiken med ett karelskt skriftspråk som skrevs med kyrilliska alfabetet. Detta skriftspråk vann aldrig någon större acceptans bland språkets talare och används inte längre. Översättningar från ryskan till detta språk förstås någorlunda av en ryss, men knappast av en karelare som inte kan ryska.

Dialekter

Karelska, som för de flesta talare av finska och karelska är ömsesidigt begripligt med viss ansträngning, och där finskans östliga dialekter och karelskan bildar ett dialektkontinuum, men skiljer sig vad gäller uttal, stavning och ordförråd, som jämfört med finskan av naturliga skäl är mycket starkt påverkat av ryska. Det finns ingen standardkarelska, men språket är uppdelat i flera dialekter med vissa skiljaktigheter i skriftspråk:

 Egentlig karelska med en sydlig och en nordlig variant. Den nordliga varianten - viena - talas i de norra delarna av Karelen i de glest bebyggda distrikten runt Kalevala och Louhi och den sydliga i de mellersta delarna av Karelen, norr om sjöarna Ladoga och Onega.
 En variant av egentlig karelska, tverkarelskan, talas i Tverkarelen.
 Livvi (aunus, olonetsiska) Livvi talas i de södra delarna av Karelska republiken, i synnerhet i Olonets (finska: Aunus; karelska: Anus), och i de omkringliggande byarna, men också i Karelska republikens huvudstad Petrozavodsk (finska och karelska: Petroskoi).
 Lydiska som talas söder om Onega.

Språkhistoria
Det äldsta karelska språkminnesmärket är ett näverbrev, Näverdokument 292, från mitten av 1200-talet, som hittades i samband med en arkeologisk utgrävning i Novgorod 1957. Denna ristning är den äldsta östersjöfinska text som existerar och har tolkats som trollformel mot åska alternativt en bön till Gud om skydd mot blixtnedslag. Texten kan uttydas på flera sätt, men ett av dem lyder enligt följande:

"Jumolanuoli ï nimizi nouli se han oli omo bou jumola soud'ni iohovi"

(Thanks for your thoughtful responses Abigail).
Where are you from? Describe your childhood.
I've been lucky in that I've been able to live on the East Coast, Gulf Coast, and the West Coast in my life, but home will always be south Louisiana. I grew up on the banks of the Mississippi, and the unique mix of Southern, Creole, Caribbean, and European culture in that part of the country is ingrained and a part of who I am. I was homeschooled along with my other three siblings by my mother, who is an amazing, strong, creative woman who always taught us to follow our own path, and not be afraid of taking risks and doing something different. We kind of had that mythical southern life that people dream of- we grew lots of tomatoes, wore straw hats in the garden, raised chickens, drank sweet tea under oaks covered in moss, haha. Because I grew up somewhat in the country and spent a lot of time at home, women and the domestic will always be a huge source of inspiration for me.
What made you decide to study fashion design?
Touch has always been the door to my world. It makes things real. I also have alien fingers. I'm double jointed, and I can bend them in really bizarre ways. Literally, when I was born, my aunt looked at my fingers and said I was going to do things with my hands one day! She was right. I've always loved touching-texture, fiber, cloth, handiwork...they just make my heart race in a way that nothing else does! I've always loved history, particularly fashion history, and the language of dressing, because of the way it gives you a glimpse not only into a specific point in time, but into the thoughts and mind of the wearer. It's the silent way of communicating who we are, where we're from, and what we believe, without ever having to say a word. This is amazing to me! I used to collect books from the Kyoto Costume Institute and the V&A, and would pour over these for hours on end. I also watched a lot of old films and collected vintage; I loved the construction and how women used to put such care into the way they dressed. It was the combination of these things, and the fact that no one in my family really sewed, that made creating clothing so appealing.
What's been your favorite fashion project so far?
What's your favorite thing to do apart from designing clothes?
I like to pet cats. Really. It's therapy. And drink tea. Sketching. Good books. I read Hemingway's A Moveable Feast during break and fell in love. Also late night walks are always fun. I like to go out at midnightwith friends and bring blankets and cookies and lay under the trees. Seattle is great for this. I slept under the cherry blossoms at UW at least once a week this Spring.
Why Seattle? And what are you feelings towards this city?
I moved to Washington in 2013 with my family, and to Seattle about 8 months ago. Honestly, at the beginning, I didn't know if I would ever feel at home. Everything was foreign- the trees,people, smell in the air, even the light was strange. Since then, it's completely won me over. I love exploring this city, and all the little distinct neighborhoods. We really have the best of everything here. The mountains, the ocean, prairie, even rain forests...I love it all.
What's your favorite thing to do outside of the city?
Hiking! The forests in the PNW are so otherworldly beautiful. I like going to Deception Pass and all the lakes, like Samish, Shannon. And Skagit Valley near the flats is so beautiful. I have this dream of buying and restoring an old farmhouse out there and living in it.
My favorite ice cream flavor is Blue Bell Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough. No substitutes. I can't find it anywhere in the city though. If you see it somewhere please let me know!
And I like my red lipstick, roux dark and my eggs sunny side up.


'Iron Wall Hanging III' measuring 37 1/8 x 37 1/8 x 2 1/2 is made out of a recycled iron chain welded into a circle with a variety of iron and recycled vintage objects inside of it. This sculpture acts as an artistic representation of Dylan's upbringing, with a variety of metal tools and scrap metal instruments, such as a spanner, horseshoe and gears. It encapsulates his boyhood growing up around these implements and a great iron industry, especially in the mining of iron ore.
He calls these sculptures "Gates" as they act as a means to transport the viewer into the time and place of his youth. They are portals into another world, one of industry, mines and furnaces. These sculptures are not Dylan's first venture into the world of metal work however. In 1978, Dylan told the Minnesota Times that when he returns to his home state: "I like to blast sculpture out of metal".

Canadian Forces dealing with 17 streptococcal infection cases at recruit school in Quebec
David Pugliese, Ottawa Citizen

The Canadian military is dealing with 17 cases of streptococcal infection at its recruit facilities in Saint-Jean, Quebec, the second such outbreak in less than a year.
The cases of Group A Streptococcus bacterial infection, also called GAS, were identified among the roughly 1,500 recruits at Canadian Forces Leadership and Recruit School. The Canadian Forces Health Services is monitoring the increase in cases of GAS pharyngitis, also known as strep throat, Canadian Forces spokesman Maj. Travis Smyth said. There have been no serious cases of GAS infection and no hospitalized cases.
In early April, Postmedia reported that more than 1,800 military personnel had been given antibiotics after an outbreak of streptococcal infections at the same military facility. Six recruits from the Saint-Jean Garrison were hospitalized. Of those there was one confirmed invasive Group A Streptococcal (GAS) case and one probable invasive GAS case, according to the Department of National Defence.
The garrison, located in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Que., is the basic training base for recruits in the Canadian Forces.
Smyth said antibiotics are being provided to recruits at the facility. The use of antibiotics is on a voluntary basis, he added. Antibiotics were "also used in the late winter and early spring of 2018 and was successful in quelling an outbreak at that time," he added.
Common areas, dormitories and other shared-use objects such as fitness equipment, pay telephones and doorknobs are being decontaminated. Masks are being worn by those who have cold or flu symptoms.
"Group A Strep (GAS) is a very common problem in military recruits," the Canadian Forces stated in an earlier email. "Of note, GAS is on the rise throughout Canada and there have been a number of outbreaks across the country recently. We suspect that the combination of increased GAS in the country/community as well as the situation of living, training in close proximity in the basic training environment makes recruits particularly susceptible."
Group A streptococcus is found in the nose, throat and on the skin of healthy people. Those with no symptoms are referred to as carriers. It can cause milder illnesses, include strep throat and impetigo or more serious illness due to invasive infections.
Invasive group A streptococcal infection occurs when the group A strep bacteria enters a part of the body that is usually sterile, such as the blood or joint fluid. It can cause severe illness and death.
A new article in the in academic journal, Military Medicine, noted that during an earlier outbreak of GAS in the Canadian Forces, recruits were reluctant to seek medical care or use antibiotics. "Reluctance to seek medical care, challenges in following cough etiquette, and low compliance with antibiotics were identified among recruits," the Military Medicine article noted. "A GAS surveillance system was implemented and efforts to improve antibiotic compliance and medical consultation were recommended," the article added.

Sep 17 Mishka Henner: Semi-Automatic at Bruce Silverstein Gallery

Mishka Henner's Semi-Automatic is an excellent example of how the use of photography is being redefined in our digital age. The works on display combine pictures from mass media, public databases and Internet culture to create dystopian images that comment on political topics such as the oil- and sex industry.
Image above: During the opening night at Bruce Silverstein Gallery. ©Paul McLaren.
For one of the installations Henner loops images downloaded from Google Street View on one of the gallery's TV-screens. At first sight these photographs looks like any random images you would see using the database, but the photographs Henner has picked out all have a common factor: on the side of the road sex workers have been unintentionally and unknowingly caught by the Google Street View Camera. Their faces have been automatically blurred by the database, which makes the impact of what the photos actually document even stronger. These automated photographs are reminiscent of E. J. Belloqc's images of prostitutes in New Orleans in the early 20th century. Where Belloqc scratched out the faces of the prostitutes in the photographs, Google Street View has now done automatically and created a modern version of Belloqc's work, thus documenting an industry that has not changed much in the past 100 years.

Henner reaches back in time with other works as well: for example the 18 aerial landscape photos that show a striking similarity to abstract expressionist paintings from the 1940s. Another example is the way that The Netherlands chose to censure certain areas on Google Earth by using Photoshop's crystalizing effect and therefore unintentionally redefining documentary landscape photography reminiscent of how Dutch artists redefined landscape painting in the 1600s. The landscape motif recurs in the exhibition and one of the strongest ways that Henner uses it is by showing how man alters the landscape for financial gain. Examples of this are patchwork compositions of aerial images showing oil pumps in Denver or the feedlots in Texas that are used to intensify animal farming by speeding up the life process of cows.

By repurposing existing photographs to create new meaning Semi-Automatic function as a comment on the world we live in and the effect we have on it. By reaching back in time and drawing power from art history the exhibition also explores the use of photography and brings up a fascinating question: What does photography mean today?

Learn how to effectively write unit tests with NUnit and Moq. This tutorial covers getting started, naming conventions, best practices and more.
I'm assuming that you have seen the light, and that you are sold on the benefits (and indeed the drawbacks) of unit testing. I have read literally dozens of blog posts, watched many videos, and read several books about unit testing and the various approaches and frameworks. I have worked with several of these frameworks in both small and enterprise level applications, and I have found that (in my opinion at least) NUnit and Moq are great for helping to get simple tests written quickly and to a decent standard. The purpose of this blog post is to get you up and running writing your first unit tests with NUnit and Moq quickly.
If you want to learn unit testing in depth using mocking frameworks such as Moq, FakeItEasy and Typemock Isolator, I highly recommend checking out The Art of Unit Testing: with examples in C# by Roy Osherove.
Moq (pronounced "Mock-you" or just "Mock") is the only mocking library for .NET developed from scratch to take full advantage of .NET 3.5 (i.e. Linq expression trees) and C# 3.0 features (i.e. lambda expressions) that make it the most productive, type-safe and refactoring-friendly mocking library available. And it supports mocking interfaces as well as classes. Its API is extremely simple and straightforward, and doesn't require any prior knowledge or experience with mocking concepts.
Personally, I prefer the latter two approaches. And which one I use largely depends on what project I am working on. Feel free to use whichever you feel most comfortable with, and if you want to come up with your own naming convention, that's fine too.
In object-oriented programming, mock objects are simulated objects that mimic the behaviour of real objects in controlled ways. A programmer typically creates a mock object to test the behaviour of some other object, in much the same way that a car designer uses a crash test dummy to simulate the dynamic behaviour of a human in vehicle impacts.
In the above code sample, if an InvalidOperationException is thrown at some point in the test, the test will pass. Otherwise, the test will fail.
The Returns() method is called the first time the GetId() method is called, when subsequent calls are made, the logic in the Callback() is executed.
You can declare the behaviour of each MockObject created by the MockRepository in the repository constructor, or you can set this by passing in the desired MockBehavior to the MockRepository.Create method.
Moq is a powerful, extremely flexible mocking framework. When used in conjunction with NUnit, you have all the tools you need to write fast, useful unit tests that can improve the reliability of your code.

Q: ASP MVC EF6 Code first Multi tenant get tenant id we keep fighting with out multi tenant application.
This is an ASP MVC EF6 Code First web application.
We initialize a list of tenants in the Application_Start, getting a pair of values:
Host
TenantId

So we can associate any host with one TenantId, and store that list in cache.
We have configured a custom filter to get the current tenant.
public class TenantActionFilter : ActionFilterAttribute
{
    public override void OnActionExecuting(ActionExecutingContext filterContext)
    {
        filterContext.HttpContext.Items.Add("TenantId", GetCurrentTenant(filterContext.HttpContext.Request.Url.Host));

        base.OnActionExecuting(filterContext);
    }
}

The GetCurrentTenant function just access the list in cache and get the current one based on the host passed.
Is it correct to store the current tenant in an item in the context?
After that, we have created an Interceptor to get any query and add a filter to filter by TenantId. This is done and working good, we just need to add the tenantId from the context:
The problem we have is where we get the TenantId for each request.
if (HttpContext.Current.CurrentHandler == null) return;
var clientId = Convert.ToInt32(HttpContext.Current.Items["ClientId"]);

        foreach (DbParameter param in command.Parameters)
        {
            if (param.ParameterName != TenantAwareAttribute.TenantIdFilterParameterName)
                continue;
            param.Value = clientId;
        }

We don't know if this is the correct approach since there is a lot of informationon the net.
Thanks.

A: In my experience, the persistence of the tenant Id in the HTTP context is not right, as in some cases, the HTTP context becomes null.
You can try to get the tenant Id from the claims of the current principal. Creating a static class with a tenant identifier property that reads from the claims and gives is more reliable. Assuming you are using the owin pipeline, this should be easy to do.  You can take a look at the reference sample application from github here
It looks like the below block,
public static class UserContext
{
   public static string TenantId
   {
       get
       {
           return Threading.Thread.CurrentPrincipal.FindFirst("tenantid");
       }
   }
}

On the first expense account Susie works on, the employee has a hotel receipt for $130 a night, but no food expenses. Susie processes the reimbursement for $90. The employee becomes irate as his reading of the travel policy is that he can be reimbursed for $130 a night for hotel and food with a receipt.

Upon the conversation, he is pondering on a comment his wife made; she said, "I'm no accountant, but after four years, you would think that the company could get done how its estimates affect expenses and those other accounts." What might the company be doing, and what should Paul do from an ethical reasoning view?
(TCO D) A young man by the name of Mr. Meeks works at an accounting firm that has a written ethics code of conduct. The code specifically outlines the duties and obligations that every employee must follow without question. One of rules states that every accountant should not lie under any circumstances. Last week, Mr. Meeks sent out a finalized tax return to Wrong Client. Wrong Client called Mr. Meeks from the card attached to the tax return and informed Mr. Meeks that he was sending the tax return back to him overnight. Meanwhile, Right Client called Mr. Meeks and wanted to know where the tax return was. Mr. Meeks told Right Client that he sent it to the wrong address, and he will send it out as soon as he received it back from Wrong Client. Right Client was irritated and called the partner of the firm. The partner scolded Mr. Meeks and wanted to know why he told the client he sent the return to the wrong address. The partner said he should have told the client that the return was in the 2nd partner review or some other excuse to cover up the mistake. Mr. Meeks explained that the ethics code of conduct specifically states that he should not lie under any circumstances, and he was just following his ethical duty. The partner grinned and told Mr. Meeks that the next time this happens, he should consult with the partner first. Using the ethical decision-making model and ethical theories, justify the positions of either the partner, Mr. Meeks, or an alternative solution.

As cyber threats evolve, Sophos reinforces 'channel-best' promise to partners
Charts new paths to growth.

Following an overhaul of Sophos' channel leadership in the past year, the firmed-up Asia Pacific and Japan (APJ) team is doubling down on its go-to-market for channel partners.
Speaking to ARN, Sophos director of APJ channel sales Chad Cleevely said he has embarked on fortifying the vendor's relationship with partners in the region and charting new paths of growth, particularly in the managed services space, since taking the reins in March 2022.
"We had a great year last year across many metrics: number of transacting partners; number of active partners; and new go-to-market opportunities for the partners around our adaptive cyber security ecosystem," he said.
"We remain very focused on our channel – how we deliver superior outcomes for our partners, how we create that improved longer term relationship for our partners with their customers through managed services [and] managed threat and response and how we help partners enhance their value back to their customers."
Sophos' commitment to the region and its channel was seen in other new appointments; Charles de Jesus stepped in as director of Australia and New Zealand channel sales in January 2022 and Sandra Lee joined in July 2022 as managing director of Southeast Asia and Korea.
"Sophos remains a channel-first company and we're very committed to our partners. We're investing in our channel – you can see that not only with the number of people we bring into our company and our organisation in Asia, but the calibre and experience of the people," Cleevely said.
MSP-centric strategy
While building out the channel is top-of-mind for Sophos, Cleevely shared that with the industry shifting towards managed services, supporting the managed service providers (MSP) community would "add substantially more value" back to Sophos partners and help customers better enhance their security operations.
Notably, the APJ market continues to be a hotbed of opportunity and growth for Sophos' service business. Cleevely observed that the vendor's regional businesses – from Japan and greater China to ASEAN and India – are "performing really well".

According to IDC's Worldwide Security Spending Guide, spending on security solutions and services in Asia Pacific (excluding Japan) is forecasted to exceed US$31 billion in 2022, an increase of 15.5 per cent from 2021.
Moreover, investments in hardware, software and services related to cyber security are expected to reach US$57.6 billion in 2026, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.4 per cent for the period of 2021-26.
Factors influencing investments include a rise in cyber attacks, increasing demand for a hybrid working model and ensuring data privacy and regulatory compliances, thereby creating a need for effective threat management as enterprises move towards digital sovereignty.
The research also revealed that the demand for a suite of security services – such as managed services, consulting, integration and support services – has been spurred by technology shifts towards multi-cloud, automation, artificial intelligence (AI) and analytics which require a highly secure environment to operate in.

At the core of it, services are expected to be the largest category among security markets, accounting for almost half of security spending throughout the forecast period growing at a five-year CAGR of 16 per cent. The security services market is dominated by managed services – constituting around 40 per cent of the security services spending throughout the forecast – followed by consulting services and integration services.
"Our MSP business continues to grow. We see our MSP partners making that shift away from traditional IT and moving towards managed services, moving towards AI-based technologies to help customers better enhance their security operations," Cleevely said.
Within this context, he reiterated that Sophos' "partner-first" and "partner-best" values continue to be a mainstay and its commitment to partners is reflected not only in the solutions and services offered to support their go-to-market but also through the Sophos partner program which provides enablement and training.
Amid the pervasive challenge of limited IT resources and in particular, "capable resources" on the security end, Cleevely evaluated that customers operating small- and medium-sized businesses (SMB) are more likely to lack the capability or resources to defend against modern cyber threats due to the scale of threats and risks. Hence, these organisations are likely to outsource their security needs to their MSP partners.

With the threat landscape evolving rapidly, partners are also required to provide "more predictive [and] more proactive" advice to their customers and Sophos is poised to support this endeavour with its global managed threat response pool of resources.
"The partners have a role to play here in particular because as they are offering services to those customers, they are becoming the trusted advisors and customers today are looking for vendors that are experienced and have been doing this a long time," Cleevely added.
"We continue to see thousands of new managed threat and response customers sign up with Sophos on a quarterly basis worldwide because they know they don't have the capabilities, global view and perspective of threat intelligence and they need someone to respond to them. So, they look to Sophos for that service, but it gets delivered through our partners."

Traditionally, the common treatment for repairing herniated discs in the neck was an Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF) procedure. In a fusion surgery, the disc is removed and either a bone spacer or a plastic implant is be placed in the disc space to restore disc height and remove pressure on the pinched nerves or spinal cord. A metal plate and screws are then placed on the front of the neck to hold the implant in place. The result of this procedure will be a segment that no longer moves, or is "fused".
In the low back, because of the number of vertebrae, this loss of movement is less of a problem as the remaining vertebrae can provide enough rotational movement. In the neck, however, there are fewer vertebral bones. When two vertebrae are locked together as in the ACDF surgery, not only does the person notice that they have less rotation in the neck after surgery, but other issues also come into play. Because two vertebrae are locked, the other vertebrae above and below have more stress on them, which can in turn cause additional disc herniations in the remaining segments.
Over the past decade, several artificial discs for the neck have emerged and have worked well for single level disc herniations in the neck. However, none of these previous artificial discs addressed the patient who might have disc degeneration at two levels. Those patients were not addressed by the other implants.
In 2015 surgeons began using the latest advance in artificial discs for the cervical (neck) area: Mobi-C® artificial disc. Mobi-C® is the first and only cervical disc replacement device to receive FDA approval to treat both one-level and two-level cervical disc disease. Mobi-C® is different from other cervical discs because of its bone sparing technique, which eliminates the need for bone chiseling and drilling, and optimizes it for two-level applications.
With any artificial disc surgery, the surgeon must make room for the new implant that then replicates the movement and rotation of the original disc. This involves some chiseling of the existing bone. The new Mobi-C® implant significantly reduces the amount of bone that is affected so you are preserving much more of the vertebral body.
Like all artificial discs, the advantages of the Mobi-C® device over fusion is that the neck maintains normal motion and reduces the stress placed on the other discs in the neck. The goal with motion preservation is to retain the normal rotation of the neck and lessen the need for any future surgery at other levels in the neck.

The history of the artificial disc for spine
Perhaps the most anticipated advance in spine surgery over the past 25 years was the arrival of the artificial disc. The first artificial disc in the United States — Charite — received formal approval by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for widespread use in the United States on October 26, 2004.
While this technology was somewhat new in our country at that time, artificial discs had been in use in Europe for more than 15 years before that.

The FDA tries to regulate the use of new technology and drugs to provide time to study if these innovations actually provide some benefit to patients, and to determine if any innovations are harmful to patients.
For example, the models of artificial discs approved by the FDA for use in the United States are expected to grow as new models emerge on the scene and surgeons become trained in their use.
Each disc is designed for use either in the low back (lumbar area) or neck (cervical area). In addition to Charite, some common artificial discs that have been in use in the United States over the past few years include: Prodisc® C for the neck area; Prodisc® L for the lumbar area; Prestige® for the neck area; BRYAN® cervical disc, PCM® cervical disc; Mobi-C® cervical disc (also called LDR); and SECURE®-C for cervical.
In addition, other artificial disc models are available on a limited basis through "clinical trials" where a patient agrees to be part of clinical study designed to measure the success of a new disc model, which will be part of an FDA study. Patients who participate in a clinical trial can gain access to the most current technology, even though it has yet to gain FDA approval for use in the U.S.
Pursuing an alternative to fusion surgery
The artificial disc concept is intended to be an alternative for spinal fusion surgery. Each year in the U.S., more than 200,000 spinal fusion surgeries are performed to relieve excruciating pain caused by damaged discs in the low back and neck areas.
During a fusion procedure, the damaged disc is typically replaced with bone from a patient's hip or from a bone bank. Fusion surgery causes two vertebrae to become locked in place, putting additional stress on discs above and below the fusion site, which restricts movement and can lead to further disc herniation with the discs above and below the degenerated disc. An artificial disc replacement is intended to duplicate the function level of a normal, healthy disc and retain motion in the spine.
When a natural disc herniates or becomes badly degenerated, it loses its shock-absorbing ability, which can narrow the space between vertebrae. In fusion surgery, the damaged disc isn't repaired but rather is removed and replaced with bone that restores the space between the vertebrae. However, this bone locks the vertebrae into place, which can then damage other discs above and below.
A common aspect of all artificial discs is that they are designed to retain the natural movement in the spine by duplicating the rotational function of the discs Mother Nature gave us at birth. Most artificial disc designs have plates that attach to the vertebrae and a rotational component that fits between these fixation plates. These components are typically designed to withstand stress and rotational forces over long periods of time. Still, like any manmade material, they can be affected by wear and tear.
Benefits of using an artificial disc vs. fusion
Some of the main benefits of the artificial disc parallel that of knee replacement and hip replacement.
This can include the following benefits:
An artificial disc in the neck or back, in principle, is designed to retain motion in that particular segment of the spine.
It prevents degeneration of disc levels above and below the affected disc
There is no bone graft required
There can be a quicker recovery and return to work or activity
It can be a less invasive and less painful surgery than a fusion
There can be less blood loss during surgery
Lumbar vs. cervical artificial discs
Because of the weight of the body and the rotational stress that the trunk places on discs in the low back (lumbar) area, more stress is placed on artificial discs in the lumbar area than in the neck (cervical) area, which only supports the weight of the head.
A second issue relates to the ease of the artificial disc surgery and any necessary revision surgery to replace a worn out artificial disc. Because the surgeon must access the front of the spine, an incision is made in the abdomen for lumbar discs and in the front of the neck for cervical discs. Generally speaking, it is easier and safer to access the herniated disc in the neck than it is to access a herniated disc in the low back by maneuvering around internal organs in the stomach area.
Other issues to consider
When treating knee and hip replacement patients, the best orthopedic surgeons try to postpone the implantation of an artificial joint until a patient is at least 50 years old so that they do not outlive their artificial joint, which typically lasts anywhere from 15 to 20 years. Revision surgery, which may be necessary to replace a worn-out artificial joint, can be complex.
There is also the same concern with the artificial disc for the back and neck.
Unlike knee and hip replacement patients who are typically in their 50s or 60s, many patients can benefit from artificial disc technology at a much younger age — in their 20s or 30s. Therefore, the implantation of an artificial disc in younger patients can raise a surgeon's concern about the potential life span of the artificial disc in the spine and the need for revision surgery to replace a worn-out artificial disc, which can be complex.
In summary, the best spine surgeons are cautious about the use of artificial discs for the following reasons:
Wear and tear on artificial joints cant require revision surgery in 10 to 20 years that can be extremely complex.
Most artificial disc implants only address rotational forces, not the up and down shock absorbing function of the natural disc.
Overweight people can wear out a lumbar disc prematurely.
New artificial discs are continually in development, however FDA approval is a lengthy process.
There are not many 20-year-long studies that show the long-term effects of wear and tear on artificial disc implants.
Generally, the technology is very promising. Your spine surgeon can provide information if your problem can be addressed with this technology.

Eating Out in Bristol
A new cheese and beer shop is opening on Bristol's Whiteladies Road
Safe to say, we're very excited...
It's common knowledge that cheese and wine are a match made in heaven, but did you know that the same also applies to cheese and beer?
The relationship between the latter is definitely lesser known, but a couple on the brink of opening a new shop on Whiteladies Road plan to change that.
Dominic Pulsford and Lara Issa moved to Bristol from London in February and immediately set their sights on opening a new shop which brings together their two main passions: craft beer and cheese.
Two Belly is weeks away from opening
After identifying the prime location in Clifton, they quickly got to work and are now just weeks away from seeing their dream become a reality, with the signage going up last week.
"Lara and I are both very passionate about craft beer," said Dominic.
"I worked in a number of craft beer pubs in London and ever since we met we've had a dream of opening up our own brewery, but over time that dream changed and it became a craft beer shop instead.
Popular Hotwells pub The Rose of Denmark reopens and legendary Sunday roasts are back too
"During my final four months in London I worked as a cheesemonger for Neal's Yard Dairy, which is why we wanted to marry the two together in the shop."
Two Belly will stock a wide range of beers from the finest local breweries such as Moor Beer and Lost and Grounded, while the majority of the cheese will come from Neal's Yard Dairy, using the links Dominic made in the capital city.
Imagine this with a top notch Belgian beer... (Image: Pexels)
Cider will also be on sale at the shop, which is located between Boots and Tradewind Espresso, supplied by highly rated manufacturers from Bristol and Herefordshire.
"The South West is the Mecca of British cheese and there are so many fantastic breweries here, which is one of the reasons we wanted to open our shop in Bristol," added Dom.
A disused kiosk on Bristol's Welsh Back has been transformed into a vegan paradise
"We're really keen to pair different cheeses with different beers and we will have a wide range on offer including some delicious Belgian beers and sour beers."
Dominic and Lara hope to be up and running by early September, in time for Bristol Craft Beer Festival.

Coastguard Takes Delivery of New Chopper
#COASTGUARD - The Irish Coast Guard has taken delivery of its new search and rescue helicopter at its Shannon base, The Irish Times reports.
As previously reported on Afloat.ie, Sikorsky completed production of the new S-92 helicopter for the Irish Coast Guard last December under the rescue service's €500 million deal with CHC Ireland to revamp the aircraft fleet.
The deal will also see the coastguard's remaining four Sikorsky S-61s replaced by second-hand S-62s from Scotland over the coming months.
Training with crews at Shannon is set to begin shortly ahead of the S-92's first public demonstration at the centenary of the Titanic's departure from Cobh in Cork Harbour.
Meanwhile, it is expected that the Air Corps may be offered an upgraded air ambulance role, after they were ruled out as contenders for search and rescue work amid some controversy.
The Department of Health has reportedly been in exploratory talks with private firms regarding the provision of an inter-hospital emergency air transfer service, as called for by the Roscommon Hospital Action Group.

Q: Calling a PowerShell script from Azure batch custom activity I am trying to run a PowerShell script from within an Azure, Data Factory, Batch Service, Custom Activity.  The closest I've gotten to this working is the following:
powershell powershell -command  '$env:AZ_BATCH_TASK_DIR\wd\processInAzure.ps1'

When I run this I get the following error message
At line:1 char:23
+ $env:AZ_BATCH_TASK_DIR\wd\processInAzure.ps1
+                       ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Unexpected token '\wd\processInAzure.ps1' in expression or statement.
    + CategoryInfo          : ParserError: (:) [], ParentContainsErrorRecordException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : UnexpectedToken

I've been able to get a directory listing of $env:AZ_BATCH_TASK_DIR\wd and see that processInAzure.ps1 exists at this location.  I've been able to Write-Host "Hello from Azure" so I can see powershell is working.  What I'm not getting is how to reference the ps1 script file using an environment variable.  Would anyone know the syntax sugar to get this working?
With Architect Jamie's input (including his deleted edit!!! Put edit back it directly led to the solution) I was able to put a few things together to get this to work.  The double powershell at the beginning of the command line is not a typo BTW.  This is what ended up working:
powershell powershell -command ("$env:AZ_BATCH_TASK_DIR" + '\wd\processInAzure.ps1')

What didn't work is the following:
powershell powershell -command ("$env:AZ_BATCH_TASK_DIR" + "\wd\processInAzure.ps1")
powershell powershell -command ("$env:AZ_BATCH_TASK_DIR\wd\processInAzure.ps1")
powershell -command ("$env:AZ_BATCH_TASK_DIR" + '\wd\processInAzure.ps1')

A: Try this:
powershell -command "$($env:AZ_BATCH_TASK_DIR)\ws\processInAzure.ps1"

It's not possible to access object member properties or methods inside single quote qualified strings.  Using the double quote in PowerShell allows you to expand variables at runtime.
Edit:
Though the above is true, in this instance the reason for the error is that PowerShell is treating the path being tacked on as part of the environment variable identifier.  Using $() variable expansion as above will work, and you should also be able to use ('$env:AZ_BATCH_TASK_DIR' + '\ws\processInAzure.ps1')

Basic Strategy for Puerto Rico Board Game
By Seth Brown
Seth Brown
Puerto Rico is one of the enduring classics of the Euro-game board game genre, no doubt partially due to a rich variety of options and depth of gameplay. Many complex strategic calculations can be made when playing a game of Puerto Rico, but if you're just starting out, here are some basic strategy tips:
Early Money Is Crucial
While most players will have a reasonable increasing income as the game progresses, money is very tight for the first few turns. For this reason, even getting a single gold doubloon with the prospector can be a worthwhile action. Early money can quickly translate into early buildings.
Get Some Production Running ASAP
Until you have production, Craftsman actions are useless to you. You want to at least be producing something, so when someone else picks craftsman, you are getting some benefit.
Remember that buildings need people to work, so get people in your buildings then and start earning money to build more buildings. The start of the game is often slow, so anyone who can start fast will have an advantage.
Make Your Decisions Based on Comparative Rather than Absolute Advantage
This means rather than choosing a role to give yourself and everyone else in the game five coins, it is generally better to give yourself two coins and everyone else nothing.
While it may seem counter-intuitive to not take the role that gives you the biggest benefit, you don't necessarily want the role that gives you the biggest absolute boon. You want the role that gives you the biggest gap in benefit between you and the other players.
Try to Figure out What Role Other Players Might Choose
If you can understand what roles are likely to be picked, you can put yourself in a position to take advantage of them. This comes partially from familiarity with the game, but partially from observing the boards of the other players.
If someone has a really good empty building, they may choose Mayor to activate it. If you can build a good building before their turn, when they pick Mayor it will help you too.
Don't Let a Role Leave You Behind
You want to make sure that whenever another player picks a role that isn't prospector, you can benefit from it.
If the other players in your game are heavily relying on shipping, lots of crafting and shipping will happen, so you'd better be producing barrels so you can get points too. Conversely, if nobody else in your game is shipping, you'd likely have to do a lot of the work yourself and pick craftsman a lot, often a bad idea.
Make Other People Do Your Work for You
Generally speaking, when you need something, all you need is the role, not the privilege. If you need one colonist to activate your Factory, it doesn't matter whether you pick mayor or the player before you does. But if you let them pick it, you get to use your turn to do something else you want.
Secure a Trade Monopoly If Possible
Being the only player with a certain type of barrel gives you a number of advantages. For example, if you are the only coffee producer, it guarantees your ability to use the trading hut for big bucks if any spaces remain. If you are the only sugar producer, you can also put sugar on a ship during a captain phase to essentially make it your "personal ship" until someone else starts producing sugar.
Watch for the Endgame
The game will end when someone has all twelve building spaces filled, or whenever the colonists or victory points run out. Usually at least one player has not finished getting their engine running before the game ends; don't let it be you. If you see the game could end soon, start scrambling for victory points.
Remember that whoever has the most victory points at the end of the game wins, so even in the mid-game don't focus entirely on money while forgetting about points.

Does the Web Turn Us Into Partisans?
By Derek Thompson
The Internet provides an infinity of stuff, but it's all too easy to siphon off oneself in a cozy, ideologically uniform echo chamber of information -- or disinformation. You might expect that the searchable, personalized architecture of the Internet might guarantee that we find the information we're looking for rather than the information that we need to know.
But a fascinating new paper from NBER says that's not exactly how the Internet works. The authors find that online news consumption is much less ideologically segregating than face-to-face interactions, but more segregating than offline news consumption. Ryan Avent concludes "The internet, if anything, provides a counter to the more ideologically homogeneous circles of friends, families, and colleagues in which we operate daily."
There's a more pessimistic way to interpret the findings. Imagine online news consumption, from newish e-magazines (eg Slate) to blogs like at The Atlantic and Economist, as a halfway mark between offline news consumption and face-to-face interactions. Many of them are, as Andrew Sullivan likes to say, a broadcast of the writer's opinions rather than an iterative publication. A good broadcast is powerful, but also personal and emotional. In that light, online news takes the offline news model and slow-walks it toward the ideological homogeneity of social circles. Avent's right. We're not there yet. But it's a slow-walk.
The Web might not be turning us into partisans. But it gives our partisanship the chance to marinate in partisan news -- a lot of it, accessible from anywhere. Newspapers have been somewhat partisan for centuries. Magazines even more so. But even if Web readers are merely consuming the news we've always read, but pixelated rather than printed, it is a little disappointing that having been offered a universe of content, readers are probably sticking to their ideological solar systems.

Recounts and comments on the race relations ramifications of an 1859 beating of a black man by whites in Franklin County, Indiana. James Hays, the victim, sued his employer, George W. Kimble, a local Republican, for unstated civil redress, accusing Kimble of having arranged the beating. Unable to secure witnesses to the assault, Hays eventually withdrew his complaint. In an initial response, however, Kimble's attorneys cited the 'Dred Scott' case, claiming Hays, as a black, had no standing in state or federal court. A grand jury issued no criminal indictment. Simultaneously, Hays successfully sued his wife, Elizabeth, for divorce, charging her with adultery with a white man. The author discusses the relationship between Kimble and Elizabeth, defense of Hays by the local Democratic newspaper, and ill will toward Hays by his white neighbors.
