Should I hire an attorney to help me with my Georgia truck accident claim?
You should hire an experienced Atlanta truck accident lawyer to help you with your Georgia truck accident claim if it has resulted in the wrongful death of a loved one or if you have sustained a serious and life changing injury because of the truck crash.
An Atlanta truck accident lawyer can help protect your legal rights during the often complicated Georgia truck accident claims process. Truck accident cases are more complex than most personal injury claims because of the complexities of federal laws governing interstate truck commerce and safety as well as the distinct possibility that one or more parties may be ultimately liable for your truck accident injuries.
There is also a lot of evidence you will need to gather to help substantiate your Georgia truck accident claim that may be difficult for you to obtain on your own. This can include the log books or electronic records from the truck itself as well as the vehicle's maintenance records, information about the driver, and so on.
An experienced Atlanta truck accident lawyer knows what kind of evidence to look for and what may constitute negligence on behalf of the trucking company itself as well as other potential third parties based on the specifics of your truck accident.
Because of the complexity of these types of cases, working with an attorney is recommended only in cases of severe injury or the death of a loved one. If your injuries and property damage are minor, you can most likely settle with the insurance company on your own, though it still might be a good idea to at least consult with an Atlanta truck accident lawyer about your options.
Attempting to settle with the truck company's insurance carrier is not a good idea for severe injuries as they will not take into account the full spectrum of your injuries, including long-term care. If you have an Atlanta truck accident lawyer working on your side, you will have a personal advocate working for a settlement that will address your current and future medical needs as well as quality of life issues.
If you or your loved one has been the victim of someone else's negligence or carelessness, in a Georgia truck accident, you have certain rights guaranteed by law. To help you understand these rights and seek the compensation you may be eligible for to help get your life back in order, contact the Atlanta Law Offices of Sheryl L. Burke for a no-cost consultation on your injury case.
When you agree to an out of court settlement for your Georgia personal injury claim you are choosing to avoid taking your case to trial. In an out of court settlement no judge or jury will be present in the decision process of your Georgia personal injury claim.
An out of court settlement is also known as a negotiated settlement and involves both parties, as well as their attorneys and, in some cases, a conflict mediator. There are advantages and disadvantages to the out of court settlement process and many reasons why either party may seek this type of resolution.
In some cases, one or more parties may wish to keep the details of the Georgia personal injury claim private and out of court records. Out of court settlements also result in lower legal fees and negate court fees, so they may allow for a more substantial settlement amount to the plaintiff.
When you are unsure about whether an out of court settlement is appropriate for your Georgia personal injury claim, you should consult with an Atlanta personal injury lawyer.
If you are the victim of someone else's negligence or carelessness, whether in a traffic accident or some other type of accident, you have certain rights guaranteed by law. To help you understand these rights and seek the compensation for which you may be eligible, contact the Atlanta Law Offices of Sheryl L. Burke for a no-cost consultation on your injury claim.
How do I know if I've been offered a fair settlement for my injuries?
How is liability determined in a Georgia car accident claim?
The driver that is considered liable in a Georgia car accident claim is the one at fault for causing the accident. Georgia traffic laws will often be cited when determining liability in a car accident.
For instance, if someone violates the law by running a stop light or making an unauthorized U-turn, that driver would most likely be held liable in a Georgia personal injury case.
In some cases, certain types of car accidents will result in an almost automatic assumption of liability. For instance, a person who crashes into the back of someone else's car is usually considered to be at fault for the rear-end collision. An exception to this automatic fault rule is if a driver rear ends you, and causes you to hit the car in front of you. In this case, the driver that struck you would be held responsible for initiating the chain reaction.
In a Georgia personal injury case stemming from a car accident, you will need to provide evidence to support your claim. Your documentation may include photographs, witness statements, police reports, expert analysis and other applicable evidence. An Atlanta personal injury attorney can investigate your claim, and help you fight for the compensation to which you may be entitled.
The insurance companies involved in handling your Georgia personal injury claim will be conducting their own assessment of the accident and damages before agreeing to a settlement. Your Atlanta personal injury attorney can negotiate with an insurance company to fight for a complete and fair settlement. You may be eligible to receive compensation for lost wages, medical expenses and pain and suffering, among other considerations.
If you are the victim of someone else's negligence or carelessness, whether in a traffic accident or any other type of accident, you have certain rights guaranteed by law. To help you understand these rights and seek the compensation to which you may be entitled, contact the Atlanta Law Offices of Sheryl L. Burke for a no cost consultation.
What are Georgia's motorcycle insurance requirements?
What types of damages can I recover through a Georgia personal injury claim?
You may be eligible to recover damages from a Georgia personal injury claim based on 2 main categories: economic damages and non-economic damages.
While economic damages are fairly easy to determine, determining non-economic damages is often difficult due to its subjective nature. Therefore, it is best to consult an experienced Atlanta personal injury attorney who can assist you with filing a claim for these damages and defending that claim in court if necessary.
A traumatic brain injury (TBI) occurs from a blow, jolt or bump to the head that disrupts the normal function of the brain. This can happen when the head hits an object without warning or if an object makes contact to the head - in some cases piercing through the skull and damaging brain tissue.
When a person experiences head trauma, it's important to seek treatment as soon as possible. If you or someone you love has experienced a traumatic brain injury and believe negligence may have been a factor; have an Atlanta personal injury lawyer assist you in determining your legal options for filing a Georgia personal injury claim.
Although not all blows or bumps to the head will result in a TBI, a traumatic brain injury can range from mild to severe. The majority of TBIs that can occur on an annual basis are concussions, however even a mild concussion can lead to serious injury if it is not treated or a if secondary concussion occurs before the first one heals properly.
Getting immediate medical treatment can help save a life or reduce the potential long-term effects of a traumatic brain injury. If you sustained a severe TBI because of the negligence of someone else, such as through a motor vehicle accident or slip and fall, you can get the legal opinion of an experienced Atlanta personal injury lawyer to see what options you may have for compensation to help with medical bills, lost wages, and other accident expenses.
After a worksite accident in Georgia, do I have to see the doctor my employer chooses? Can I ever get a second opinion?
Under Georgia law, if you've been involved in a worksite accident, your employer must allow you to select a doctor from an established list, known as the Panel of Physicians. They should have already assembled this list for such situations.
At your company's or their insurer's expense, you have the right to pick from the list any doctor to examine and treat you. Additionally, you can change to another doctor on the Panel without the insurance company's or the State Board of Workers' Compensation's approval.
Please review the Panel of Physicians carefully. One of the clauses states that your employer or the insurance company can send you to a doctor of their choosing for an independent medical exam.
This Panel has to be posted in an area that's noticed by all employees on the job site. Your Atlanta Workers' Compensation attorney can explain how your company should handle your injury and their responsibilities in the Workers' Compensation claims process as well as your personal responsibilities.
Within a window of 120 days after receiving income benefits you can obtain a second opinion with a doctor of your choice. Additionally, you can get this second opinion through requesting permission from the State Board of Workers' Compensation.
Despite the State of Georgia strictly enforcing this law, many companies choose to ignore the requirements. If you work for a company that fails to follow the regulations, you should speak with your Atlanta Workers' Compensation attorney right away to discuss your legal options.
Remember, when you see the doctor, be careful in what you say because it can be held against you in the course of your Georgia Workers' Compensation claim.
On personal injury cased, including wrongful death and medical malpractice, fees are on a contingency basis. That is, if you do not receive compensation for your injury, we do not charge a fee. All initial consultations are free.
Can we settle out of court?
A claim can be settled at any time. It can be settled before suit is filed, after suite is filed, and of course before trial is started. Suits and claims are also settled during and after trial. Statistically, most cased settle before trial and a few go to trial.

Palmeiro Caught Red-Handed
What else can go wrong for the Orioles?
Still reeling from an 8-18 July that helped their half-game division lead turn into an eight game deficit and a fourth place standing a month later, Baltimore had something else to cry about on Sunday.
Orioles DH/1B and presumably first-ballot Hall of Famer Rafael Palmeiro was suspended yesterday for testing positive for one of the banned substances in MLB's new drug policy. Palmeiro did not indicate in his press conference that he failed the test due to cough syrup or diet pills, so we are left to presume that it was some kind of steroid for which his ten-day suspension was levied.
Palmeiro had denied, before the United States Congress and the literally millions of baseball fans who had tuned into see the hearings or watched them replayed on SportsCenter like so many fielding bloopers, ever having used steroids. He defiantly pointed his finger at the committee and stated emphatically that he had never used steroids. That story had changed only slightly yesterday, to say that he had never intentionally used steroids.
This does not leave us with many viable possibilities.
1) Palmeiro is telling the truth. He had not ever used steroids previously and did not do so on purpose this year. The steroids got into his body because they were in his Ovaltine and he didn't realize it. He's really sorry and he's switching to Qwik.
B) Palmeiro is stupid, but honest. He had never previously used steroids at all, but this year, knowing that there was a new testing policy and that there had already been several players suspended for testing positive for something they bought at a GNC nutrition store, he used some kind of supplement that was banned without thoroughly researching it.
iii) Palmeiro is really stupid, and lying. He had never previously used steroids, when they never did any testing and they weren't banned, but he decided to start taking them this year, under a newly-formed, much more rigorous, random testing policy, knowing that he could now actually get in trouble for it.
IV) Palmeiro is lying now, and he lied to Congress in March. But he's smart. He used steroids before, and he kept using them, or changed his dosage or patterns in hopes of avoiding detection. He figured that even if he got caught he would only lose 10 days (not even ten games) the first time, and probably wouldn't get tested again this season.
That last one seems to make the most sense.
Palmeiro was forced to appear before Congress because he was subpoenaed, and he was subpoenaed because he was accused, in Jose Canseco's book Juiced, of using steroids. Indeed, Canseco attests to having injected Palmeiro with steroids and Human Growth Hormone personally, as well as to showing Raffy how to do this himself.
In this particular case, the numbers seem to bear out Jose's testimony. Canseco was traded on 31 August 1992 was traded by the Oakland Athletics to the Texas Rangers for Ruben Sierra, Jeff Russell, Bobby Witt, and cash, according to BaseballReference.com. Before the trade, Palmeiro had hit a pedestrian .259/.333/.402, with 15 homers and 20 doubles in 513 at-bats, striking out 72 times compared to 57 walks. After the trade, Raffy ripped up the American League to the tune of .316/.409/.611, with 7 homers and 7 doubles in only 95 at-bats, and now walking more than he struck out.
Certainly, this is not definitive proof that Palmeiro started regularly visiting the the Canseco Clinic, as Jose had said. Steroids are supposed to take a few weeks to start to have an effect, and box score data from Retrosheet.org seems to indicate that Palmeiro was hitting better and for more power within a few days of Canseco's arrival in Texas. But it is evidence.
That was not even the best month of Palmeiro's career, as he had hit .390/.456/.710 with eight homers in 100 at-bats in July 1991, without the help of steroids or at least without the help of Jose Canseco.
It could be argued, I suppose, that it was not Canseco's presence behind Palmeiro in the locker room stall, injecting nasty concoctions into Raffy's rump that made the difference, but rather Jose's presence behind Palmeiro in the lineup, injecting fear into opposing pitchers and affording Palmeiro some protection he did not have the rest of the season. This theory also breaks down though, as Palmeiro only hit in front of Canseco 12 times in the Rangers' remaining 27 games, and did not hit appreciably better with Canseco behind him than he did with the likes of Juan Gonzalez, Dean Palmer or Ivan Rodriguez following him in the batting order.
The real evidence, though, comes after the 1992 season. To that point in his career, Palmeiro had been a good-average, little-power hitter, despite starting his career in one of the better hitters' parks in baseball, Wrigley Field. After having never previously hit more than 26 homers in a season, he suddenly hit 37 in 1993. After having totaled 28 stolen bases and being caught 17 times in almost 900 career games to that point, Raffy swiped 22 of 25 in '93. He had 95 homers in 3270 career at-bats at the end of the 1992 season, and a career .457 slugging percentage. His most comparable players by age were:
Age    Player
26     Al Oliver
27     Darin Erstad
28     John Olerud
Decent players, who hit for average but not power. Nobody will be petitioning the Veterans Committee to let any of them into Cooperstown if they're not elected in their first 15 years of eligibility, you know?
But from 1993 until now? Holy cow. After reaching an age at which most players tend to plateau for about four or five years, Palmeiro kept climbing the mountain. He has hit 474 homers and slugged .542 since the start of the 1993 season, and is still padding his stats and helping his team to win. His comparable players since that age include Billy Williams, Orlando Cepeda, Jeff Bagwell and Eddie Murray, all current or future Cooperstown cronies.
Palmeiro has worked his way into an elite group of players. He's one of only four guys in baseball history to amass 3,000 hits and 500 homers, and with 584 doubles and counting, he stands a good chance to soon be one of only two players with 600 doubles to boot, along with Hammerin' Hank.
Whether or not steroids helped him to do that, he still belongs in the Hall of Fame when he's eligible. There were no rules against steroids in baseball until recently, and even with the acknowledgement that steroids were a major factor in his success, he still had to do what he did. There are literally thousands of baseball players who had access to the same chemicals made available to Palmeiro who did not do what he did. That doesn't mean that we necessarily give him the same respect we would give to Hank Aaron or Willie Mays, but he gets a little more than Lenny Harris, don't you think?

ESG Reporting Standards – What is Next?
June 2, 2021 | Guidance,
The US ESG Landscape
The movement around ESG and sustainability reporting in the United States has been growing for years with a significant number of independent players in the space. In hopes of providing consistency and simplification to the crowded arena, the International Financial Reporting Standards Foundation (IFRS) announced in March 2021 that they are moving ahead on a proposal to consider setting up an International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) which would draw ESG metrics and standard insights from many of the familiar players including standard setters and key jurisdiction. For now, it is unclear what is coming, though these actions could be the beginning of sweeping changes in the standardization of reporting in the United States with global consequences.
Collaboration Amongst Key Players
We work with many of our clients to develop strategies and report to the top corporate standards and guidance related to ESG frameworks that often overlap in requirements.
Acronym Name Description
GRI Global Reporting Initiative As the official reporting standard of the UN global compact, it's the oldest and most widely used sustainability reporting framework.
SASB Sustainability Accounting Standards Board An investor-led reporting framework specific to each industry and its unique financially material topics.
IIRC International Integrated Reporting Council A coalition that promotes the use of its Integrated Reporting framework to help companies integrate non-financial disclosures into financial reporting.
VRF Value Reporting Foundation IIRC and SASB are merging into VRF, a unified standard-setting organisation.
IFRS International Financial Reporting Standards Foundation A non-profit accounting organisation that develops and promotes international financial reporting standards through the IASB.
IASB International Accounting Standards Board The independent, accounting standard-setting body of the IFRS Foundation. The global equivalent of FASB and SASB thatsets reporting standards.
FASB Financial Accounting Standards Board An organisation that establishes financial accounting and reporting standards.
CDSB Climate Disclosure Standards Board A collaborative forum for 8 organisations including CDP and WRI that works to improve reporting practices and standards.
DJSI Dow Jones Sustainability Index Indices that assess the performance of a company's ESG criteria to support investor decision making.
SFDR Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation An EU standard that imposes mandatory ESG disclosure obligations in the finance industry.
CDP Formerly the Carbon Disclosure Project An investor-led global disclosure system that focuses on three topic areas: carbon, water and forestry.
TCFD Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures An investor-led body of recommendations to help companies better account for climate-related risks in their disclosures.
For years, a varying portion of the organisations responsible for ESG standards & guidance frameworks have been threatening to collaborate or converge standards. In September 2020 a subset of them (CDP, CDSB, GRI, IIRC, SASB) – sometimes referred to as the Alliance or the group of five – issued a statement of intent, outlining a vision for a comprehensive corporate reporting system, and their commitment to work together to achieve it.
In early 2021, the Alliance (CDP, CDSB, GRI, IR, SASB) published a high-level prototype for what reporting under a theoretical harmonized standard might look like. It is not a final solution but an example of how a combination of existing frameworks and governing bodies could, through collaboration, standardize ESG reporting. It was also a call to action to the global financial accounting community to pick up the ball and run with it.
What might a standard look like?
At present the most likely path for the development of a global ESG reporting standard would be from the proposed new International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) developed under the IFRS Foundation which would build on the existing IASB Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting. This new standard would almost certainly borrow from the prototype concepts provided by the Alliance, WEF's white paper on measuring stakeholder capitalism, and other perspectives on how to define and report ESG value creation. Consolidating frameworks and recommendations could result in a global ESG reporting standard and metrics that highlight value creation and enable comparability.
This kind of harmonization could be a step toward making integrated reporting a viable solution. Integrated reporting is more than just combining ESG and financial reporting. The intent is to describe how an organization creates value over time based on what it affects or transforms through its activities or outputs. IIRC refers to this as the Six Capitals model (financial, manufactured, intellectual, human, social and relationship, natural) that define an organization's value creation. A challenge is that companies tend to do a poor job of prioritizing (focused materiality) and communicating (KPIs) information related to ESG value creation.
The IFRS plans to make decisions about the potential formation of a new International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) before COP26, scheduled for November 2021. This will provide more clarity on whether the IFRS is intending to take on this challenge and if so, what form it might take. Over time, a system that integrates ESG into financial accounting could dramatically change the reporting and accounting space. For now, sustainability professionals should hold tight until there's more visibility into tangible outcomes.

Lori McKenna: The Tree
Truth is something that we each have our own version of, based on our unique perspective of a shared world. Two people could look at the same building from different sides and describe seemingly disparate experiences. One sees windows. One does not. Each tells their truth of that moment in this world, without elision or interpretation, and they still offer conflicting accounts of the same detail.
When you've known your husband since you were kids and raised five children together in your hometown, you've lived quite a few truths of your own. That's the well from which Lori McKenna draws the songs on her albums, including her latest release, The Tree. There's a universality, a familiarity to the truths McKenna writes. Like the well-worn boards of a kitchen floor, you can hear the strained creaks from years of use, yet still feel the unwavering support of their inherent puissance and see the natural beauty in the details of their grain. Lifetimes have passed through these songs, as over those floors.
McKenna proves that point from the top on down, starting with the simple eloquence of "A Mother Never Rests." As she sings through sentimental details that include band-aids and broken bones, night lights and hatchbacks, it all comes off as comforting rather than corny. Only someone who has lived those details could deliver them in that way. Such is the song's gossamery authenticity, even if this particular soliloquy doesn't match your mother, you want it to.
Familial nostalgia is The Tree's leitmotif, cropping up in the Timex watch and billfold of "People Get Old," the bathroom tile and kitchen towel of "You Won't Even Know I'm Gone," and the bedside Bible and summer smells of "The Way Back Home." But, again, McKenna imbues these tales with so much of herself that she makes you long for a life you might never have lived. In German, the word fernweh means to be consumed with longing for a place you have never been. That's what these songs do… fernweh.
Even as those folky ballads highlight her heart in ever-captivating ways, it's on the feisty bounce of "Young and Angry Again" that she really shines. If you've only ever experienced McKenna through her songs, rather than reading an interview or seeing a show, you might not know how humbly hilarious she is. "Young and Angry Again" isn't a funny song, exactly, but it exudes a definite lightness of spirit that draws from that side of its writer.
Just like that building, Lori McKenna has different truths to tell, depending on which side of her you're witnessing. And just like those floors, every side of every truth is time-tested and resplendently rendered.

Off-payroll changes need to be delayed, says FSB
Next year's expansion of the off-payroll rules into the private sector should be delayed, according to the Federation of Small Businesses (FSB).
In 2017, HMRC introduced new off-payroll rules to the public sector, which saw some contractors' net income cut significantly. HMRC also shifted the responsibility for compliance from the individual contractor to a public body or recruitment agency.
From 6 April 2020, new tax rules will use the 2017 changes as a starting point for the extension to large and medium organisations in the private sector. This would make hiring sole traders less appealing, according to the FSB.
Commenting on the proposals, Mike Cherry, National Chairman of the FSB, said: 'Against such an uncertain backdrop, the self-employed certainly don't need an IR35 rule change that makes hiring contractors less attractive. We've already heard noises from big corporates to indicate that, if this change does take effect in April as planned, they'll pull the plug on sole traders.
'Common sense dictates that a delay to the April roll-out of these rules is now needed.'
In the run-up to the General Election, the FSB is calling on the major political parties to 'reinject optimism into the self-employed community' with their manifesto commitments.
As well as delaying the changes to the off-payroll rules, the business group wants to see tax rises ruled out for the self-employed; a freeze on fuel duty and Insurance Premium Tax (IPT); and more action to combat late payments.

We were unsure if the bed sheet was clean and there was no duvet cover. Luckily we had our own but we would not usually bringing these with us. We would have appreciated clean sheets and a duvet cover very much.
The French strike and the delay on metro and the RER nearly missed my train in Paris during arrival and also return .
The apartment looked untidy with dirty towels, dishes, bathroom. The electricity plugs looks obsolete and some of them did not function.. also a weird sound coming from plugs. A bit of nightmare for us!


Panic Attacks are a very common experience for those who experience anxiety or stress and most importantly are not harmful.
The DSM5 is a guide for clinicians to make diagnosis for certain conditions. Here is the definition for Panic Attacks.
Having worked with many clients who have anxiety and panic everyone's experience is different. Everyone's body is made up differently hence my experience of this may be different to yours. This does not mean you are not having a panic attack it means your body is reacting differently. If you have had a panic attack it may have lasted a few minutes or up to a few hours this is a very personal experience. In the aftermath of panic, you may feel drained of energy.
Panic attacks are caused by chronic stress or high levels of anxiety. Panic Attacks occur due to your body going into the fight or flight response. This response is an innate response to danger or threat. At some point prior to a panic attack whether conscious or unconscious you felt under threat or in danger. The response is activated, and you begin to feel the symptoms.
This fight or flight response causes adrenaline and cortisol to flow around your body and this is when symptoms like chest pain, racing heart dizziness nausea come into play. These symptoms are not exclusive to this response but are the most common symptoms I have encountered in my work with panic attacks.
Panic attacks can happen expectedly or unexpectedly. Expected panic attacks are ones in which people would anticipate panic. Unexpected panic attacks can be difficult to comprehend, and you can experience this even when you feel relaxed. People who experience their first panic attacks can often present at A&E thinking they are having a heart attack. Panic attacks are very real experiences and can be very difficult and debilitating.
These are the most common that I hear in my office when people attend for counselling for anxiety or panic attacks.
After the panic attack you may becoming increasingly worried that you will have another panic attack, if this is consistent for you and especially if you have been experiencing panic for 6 months or more, I would recommend you seek help from a therapist that specialises in anxiety and or your GP.
Anxiety and Panic are very easily managed with Counselling and Psychotherapy, CBT and if needed medication can help in combination with Counselling or Psychotherapy. I integrate many therapies and offer an individualised service around anxiety and panic. People suffer in silence and it really is not necessary it is a common experience and I can help you find your peace.

Odludek albo mizantrop (gr.: Δύσκολος ἢ Μισάνθρωπος, Dyskolos e Misanthropos) – jedyna zachowana w całości komedia Menandra, napisana w 317/316 roku p.n.e.

Odludek jest wczesną sztuką Menandra. Opowiada dzieje miłości bogatego młodzieńca, Sostrata, do pięknej córki zgryźliwego starca, Knemona. Liczne zabiegi Sostrata o rękę ukochanej nie dają rezultatu, do czasu, gdy Knemon, wskutek nieszczęśliwego wypadku, zmuszony jest poprosić o pomoc. Doświadczywszy własnej ograniczoności, zgadza się ostatecznie na ślub córki. Odludek jest komedią charakteru. Cała intryga sztuki osnuta jest wokół postaci zgryźliwego i złośliwego starca ze wszystkich sił broniącego swojej samotności. Komizm utworu budują powracające sceny dobijania się do drzwi i Knemonowych połajanek. Tekst utworu zaginął pod koniec starożytności, odnaleziony w drugiej połowie XX wieku, został opublikowany w 1959 roku.

Dzieje utworu
Odludek powstał w roku 317/316 p.n.e. Wraz z całą spuścizną Menandra zaginął pod koniec starożytności, kiedy to dorobek komediopisarza, ze względów językowych, uległ stopniowemu zapomnieniu. W 1959 roku Martin Victor wydał pełny tekst utworu z Papirusu Bodmera 4. Okoliczności odnalezienia papirusu i jego zakupu przez bogatego szwajcarskiego kolekcjonera Martina Bodmera nie są znane. Kodeks składający się z 16 kart podwójnych, to jest z 64 stronic, zawierał trzy sztuki Menandra: Kobietę z Samos, Odludka i Tarczę. Początek i koniec kodeksu uległy zniszczeniu. Znajdujący się w środku tekst Odludka zachował się w całości. Kodeks został spisany na przełomie III/IV wieku. Tekst sądząc po liczbie pomyłek i błędów był książką spisaną na prowincji do użytku szkolnego.

Odkrycie pierwszej całej sztuki Menandra wywołało lawinę tłumaczeń (po francuskim, szwedzkim i duńskim z 1959, włoskie i niemieckie z 1960, francuskie z 1962, włoskie i niemieckie z 1963, rosyjskie z 1964, angielskie z 1965). W połowie 1959 roku sztuka została nadana przez radiofonię duńską i szwedzką. 5 czerwca 1959 roku miała miejsce nowożytna premiera utworu w Theâtre de Carouge w Genewie w ramach obchodów 400-lecia Uniwersytetu Genewskiego. Jako drugi wystawił Odludka Teatro Olimpico z Vicenzy. Od tego czasu utwór był wielokrotnie wystawiany na wielu scenach świata. Premiera polska miała miejsce w Wałbrzychu, w grudniu 1960 roku w Państwowym Teatrze Dramatycznym w inscenizacji Ireny Byrskiej. Jako słuchowisko nadano sztukę po raz pierwszy w II programie Polskiego Radia 9 marca 1974.

Treść

Akt I
Akcja utworu rozgrywa się w gminie attyckiej Fyle na północny zachód od Aten, u podnóża góry Parnes, przy drodze do Teb. U stóp góry znajduje się grota poświęcona bożkowi Panu, a obok dwa samotne domostwa. Sztukę rozpoczyna prolog, w którym Pan przedstawia jej bohaterów: attyckiego chłopa Knemona, prawdziwie nieczłowieczego człowieka, który stroni od ludzi, z żoną nieustannie się kłócił, aż uciekła od niego do syna z pierwszego małżeństwa, Gorgiasza. Odtąd Knemon mieszka samotnie z córką i służącą. Czczącą Pana i nimfy dziewczynę, bożek chce wynagrodzić wzbudzając dla niej miłość w sercu zamożnego młodzieńca Sostrata.

Sostratos przybywa pod dom dziewczyny, ale nie śmie zapukać do jej drzwi. Inicjatywę przejmuje jego towarzysz Chajreas, który wysyła sługę Pyrrias, by się wywiedział wszystkiego o pannie u jej ojca. Pyrrias wpada po chwili, uciekając przed Knemonem, który obił go i obrzucił ziemią i kamieniami, za to że wszedł na jego teren. Radzi czym prędzej uciekać. Chajreas proponuje, żeby odłożyć rozmowę z Knemonem na bardziej stosowną chwilę, po czym na widok nadchodzącego wieśniaka umyka. Wchodzący Knemon żałuje, że nie ma jak Perseusz skrzydeł, żeby nie spotykać ludzi i cudownej tarczy, którą by mógł intruzów zamieniać w głazy. Na widok Sostrata chroni się do swojej chaty, z której wychodzi jego córka, zmartwiona, tym że niani urwało się wiadro i wpadło do studni, a ojciec potrzebuje wody. Zachwycony jej widokiem Sostratos ofiaruje się zaczerpnąć dla nie wodę ze źródła nimf. Rozmawiających ze sobą napotyka Daos, sługa Gorgiasza i postanawia powiadomić swego pana, brata dziewczyny, o tym co widział. Przed nadchodzącym bractwem wyznawców Pana chroni się w domu. Następuje pieśń chóru.

Akt II
Gorgiasz łaje sługę, że nie wywiedział się kim jest obcy i nie stanął w obronie czci jego siostry. W trakcie ich rozmowy nadchodzi Sostratos, który nie spotkawszy swego sługi Gety, u którego chciał się poradzić, postanawia bezpośrednio rozmówić się z ojcem dziewczyny. Gorgiasz z początku wzywa go, by nie gardził ubogimi i by nie hańbił jego siostry i ostrzega, że gniew skrzywdzonego biedaka jest trwalszy niż gniew bogacza. Sostratos zarzeka się jednak, że przyszedł tu w uczciwych zamiarach, prosić o rękę panny. Gorgiasz, odmalowawszy charakter Knemona, zapewnia Sostrata, że w swym wytwornym płaszczyku nie ma u Knemona żadnych szans, może jednak liczyć na poparcie Gorgiasza. Sostratos natomiast godzi się pomóc Gorgiaszowi przekopać pole, w nadziei, że zobaczy ukochaną i będzie mógł porozmawiać z jej ojcem. Tymczasem nadchodzi Getas z najętym kucharzem Sikonem. Mają przygotować ofiarę dla Pana i ucztę dla ofiarodawczyni, matki Sostrata i jej domowników. Matce przyśniło się, że bożek Pan zakuł jej syna w kajdany, założył mu na grzbiet kożuch i każe kopać motyką w polu. Ofiara ma odwrócić nieszczęście. Następuje pieśń chóru.

Akt III

Wychodzący do pracy w polu Knemon natyka się na nadchodzących ofiarników: matkę Sostrata z córką i sługami. Rozeźlony chroni się do chaty. Ponieważ kobiety zapomniały kociołka, Getas puka do drzwi Knemona, by go pożyczyć. Rozwścieczony najściem Knemon łaje go i obiecuje obić następnego natręta. Niezrażony niepowodzeniem Gety Sikon sam próbuje pożyczyć naczynie. Kiedy jednak Knemon zamierza się na niego, ucieka. Zbolały Sostratos wraca z pola, utrudził się nad siły, a panny nie zobaczył. Ogorzałego od słońca, Getas nie umie zrazu rozpoznać. Dowiedziawszy się o przygotowywanej przez matkę uczcie ofiarnej, Sostratos postanawia zaprosić do stołu Gorgiasza i jego sługę, by zyskać w nich dzięki gościnie stronników. Tymczasem z chaty Knemona wypada nieszczęśliwa Simiche, która próbując wyciągnąć ze studni wiadro, uwiązaną na sznurze motyką, upuściła i motykę, a teraz boi się gniewu pana, który chce kopać w polu i pomstuje z powodu braku narzędzia. Z chaty wypada za nią Knemon i grozi, że ją samą przywiąże do sznura i spuści do studni. Getas oferuje mu pomoc, ale Knemon lży go tylko i wbiega do chaty. Sostratos, Gorgiasz i Daos udają się do groty na poczęstunek. Następuje kolejna pieśń chóru.

Akt IV
Z chaty wybiega przerażona Simiche. Knemon podczas próby wyciągnięcia wiadra i motyki sam wpadł do studni. Simiche prosi Sikona o pomoc, ale ten ani myśli wchodzić w drogę Knemonowi. Z groty wychodzą Gorgiasz i Sostratos i udają się w stronę studni. Sikon nie kryje satysfakcji, że został przez bogów pomszczony. Sostratos oczarowany widokiem swej wybranki, trzy razy wypuszcza sznur z rąk. Ostatecznie Gorgiaszowi udaje się wyciągnąć Knemona. Spojrzawszy śmierci w oczy, Knemon przekonuje się, że nie wystarczy sam sobie w każdej sytuacji. Bezinteresowność postępowania Gorgiasza, tyle razy przezeń przepędzanego, każe mu też zmienić zdanie na temat motywów ludzkiego działania. Uznając swą pomyłkę, prosi Gorgiasza, by wziął w opiekę jego córkę i znalazł jej męża, bo on sam pewnie nie wybierze dla niej nikogo. Gorgiasz, korzystając z okazji, przedstawia Knemonowi Sostrata i wychwala jego pracowitość. Knemon odchodzi do swej chaty, dając coś w rodzaju zgody. Wobec tego Gorgiasz zaręcza pannę Sostratowi. Nadchodzi Kallipides, ojciec Sostrata, w którym Gorgiasz rozpoznaje zamożnego i pracowitego rolnika. Ojciec i syn wchodzą do groty posilić się i porozmawiać. Na scenę wkracza chór, by zaśpiewać swą pieśń.

Akt V
W akcie V Sostratos nakłania ojca, by wyraził zgodę na małżeństwo jego siostry z Gorgiaszem. Wygłasza przy tym mowę o wyższości posiadania przyjaciela nad ukrytym w ziemi skarbem. Kallipides ostatecznie ustępuje. Gorgiasz opiera się jednak przed wzięciem za żonę Plangon. Chce sam dorobić się majątku. Kallipides nie upiera się – Gorgiasz może wziąć Plangon z lada jakim posagiem. Wszyscy udają się do groty, by wziąć udział w uczcie przed mającymi nastąpić nazajutrz zaślubinami. Z domu Knemona wychodzi Simiche, która chce przed ślubem porozmawiać jeszcze z panienką i prosi Getę, by posiedział przy łóżku chorego Knemona. Getas z Sikonem postanawiają odbić sobie na starcu doznane przykrości, a przy okazji skruszyć trochę jego trudny charakter. Wynoszą go więc z łóżkiem i zaczynają walić w drzwi, przechodząc jeden drugiego w prośbach o pożyczenie rozmaitych przedmiotów. Zbudzony ze snu Knemon miota się, ale nie umie przegnać intruzów. Sikon z Getą pastwią się nad nim do woli, wreszcie Getas proponuje mu, by dał się zanieść do groty pomiędzy ucztujących, jeśli nie chce dalej znosić ich zabawy. Knemon ustępuje. Getas, ciesząc się z poskromienia krnąbrnego starca, zwraca się do publiczności, by oklaskami nagrodziła dzieło i do Nike Zwycięskiej, by zawsze była przychylna autorowi.

Galeria postaci

Starcy
Główny bohater utworu, Knemon, ma wręcz karykaturalny charakter. Jest przede wszystkim zgryźliwcem (tak najwierniej można przetłumaczyć tytuł dramatu), zgorzkniałym i złośliwym biedakiem, o którym w "Prologu" Pan mówi, że to nieczłowieczy człowiek. Menander nie kształtuje go na czarny charakter. To bieda i ciężka praca uczyniły go człowiekiem z kamienia. W przełomowej chwili swego życia Knemon widzi swoje błędy i decyduje się przekazać swój los i los bliskich w inne, lepsze ręce.

Drugi ze starców, Kallipides, pojawia się pod koniec sztuki, co nie pozwoliło Menandrowi tej postaci szerzej rozwinąć. Jednak i w nim udało mu się pokazać nieco indywidualnych rysów. Kallipides jest tolerancyjny wobec ludzi, z łagodną ironią traktuje zamiary i zapał syna, niecierpliwi się, lubiąc sobie podjeść, że musi czekać na posiłek.

Młodzieńcy

Sostratos z Gorgiaszem stanowią parę niemal klasycznych bohaterów komediowych. Modyfikacja polega na tym, że zniewieściały i rozpieszczony przez matkę Sostratos nie jest jednak hulaką, ani rozpustnikiem. Zakochawszy się od pierwszego wejrzenia, jest gotów ponieść niemałe trudy i wyrzeczenia. Jest nieżyciowy, łatwo daje się oszukać Gorgiaszowi i Daosowi, a jego trud niewiele daje. Bez trudności obdarza zaufaniem i przyjaźnią. Unosi się honorem. Uważa za naturalne wygodne warunki życiowe, jakie zapewnił mu ojciec.

Gorgiasz, doświadczywszy biedy i trudów jest raczej nieufny. Troszczy się o ojca i siostrę. Stać go na poświęcenia. Jest w zamyśle autora prawdopodobnie najbardziej pozytywnym z bohaterów, a przez to osobą nudną i rezonującą. Ma swoją ambicję: nie chce brać nazbyt majętnej żony, ale też nie chce być równocześnie biedakiem i głupcem, dlatego po krótkim oporze bierze jednak Plangon za żonę. Nie zawiera jak Sostratos małżeństwa z miłości. Idzie mu raczej o wzmocnienie więzi rodzinnych i zapewnienie sobie lepszego bytu.

Niewiasty
Córka Knemona, główna postać kobieca Odludka nie ma imienia. Wychowana bez matki, przez ojca dziwaka, jest wolna, co w sztuce się podkreśla, od zepsucia przez kobiety. Jest bardzo piękna. Sostratos na jej widok od razu traci głowę, a potem co chwilę wychwala jej urodę. Jest też pobożna – czci nimfy i Pana, za co bożek udziela jej nagrody, rozkochując w niej Sostrata. Kiedy zjawia się na scenie jest zalękniona o los starej piastunki, boi się ojca, ogarnia ją też trwożne zawstydzenie na widok nieznanego młodzieńca. Kocha swojego groźnego ojca, troszczy się o niego i bardzo przeżyw jego wypadek.

Rozwiedziona żona Knemona jest postacią niemą, przedmiotem troski synowskiej Gorgiasza. Wiadomo o niej, że była dwukrotnie zamężna, i że nie mogąc znieść charakteru Knemona, potrafiła od niego odejść. Postacią z repertuaru raczej tragicznego niż komicznego była w dramacie attyckim piastunka, wychowawczyni dzieci, najczęściej wyzwolenica, dzieląca los swoich państwa. W Odludku postać piastunki, starej Simiche, jest ledwie zarysowana. Sługa Knemona, wychowawczyni jego córki jest osobą zabiedzoną, sterroryzowaną przez pana, nieporadną i stale lamentującą.

Niewolnicy
W Odludku występują trzej niewolnicy. Najprymitywniejsza jest postać Pyrriasa, którego rola wypełnia się w ucieczce (servus currens) i zebraniu razów od Knemona. Daos, sługa Gorgiasza, służy wiernie swemu panu i córce Knemona. Dzieli biedę swego chlebodawcy, pozostaje nieufny i podejrzliwy. Inaczej przedstawia się Getas, niewolnik miejski, sługa rodziny Sostrata. Świetnie zna słabostki swych państwa, doświadczony i obrotny, nie znosi wysiłku, za to przepada za posiłkami. W finale sztuki wraz z kucharzem Sikonem organizuje nauczkę dla Knemona.

Inni
Dopełnieniem tej grupy osób jest pasożyt Chajreas, występujący krótko w I akcie utworu. Chajreas nie jest interesowny, raczej nad miarę usłużny i zadufany w sobie. Ostatecznie z lęku przed Knemonem bierze nogi za pas, co wskazuje, że Menander dążył do ukazania indywidualnego charakteru, a nie stereotypowej postaci.

Charakterystyka utworu
Odludek dzieli się klasycznie dla nowej komedii greckiej na pięć aktów przedzielonych występami chóru pijanych młodzieńców, którzy w I akcie są nazwani pijanymi Panistami, to jest czcicielami Pana. Kanoniczna dla ówczesnego dramatu jest też jedność miejsca i czasu akcji, co podkreśla Sostratos pod koniec sztuki: bo do małżeństwa doszedłem w dzień jeden. Dużą rolę w strukturze dramatu odgrywa prolog wygłaszany przez Pana, bóstwo wprawdzie drugorzędne, ale mogące dzięki swemu statusowi, oprócz ekspozycji historii Knemona i jego rodziny, zapowiedzieć także to, co nastąpi, jako że sam pokieruje biegiem wydarzeń. Pan zapowiada, że aby wynagrodzić za pobożność córkę Knemona, wzbudzi do niej uczucie w sercu syna młodego zamożnego ojca i choć na tym zapowiedź urywa, dla widzów staje się jasne, że uczucie to doprowadzi do małżeństwa. Pozostaje tylko śledzić jak do tego dojdzie. W tym miejscu prologu Menander wychyla się przekornie zza postaci Pana i dodaje: To główne punkty, a co do szczegółów, Jak chcecie patrzcie, a popatrzeć chciejcie.

Komizm Odludka częściowo czerpie z dorobku komedii starej. Reliktem komedii dawnej są awantury sceniczne, kłótnie, bójki, ucieczki. Stopniowanie upadku wiadra, motyki i samego Knemona miało prawdopodobnie wzór w komedii Aleksisa Do studni. Sceny, takie jak z opornym baranem, dawały aktorom okazję do błazeńskich popisów w stylu cyrkowym, szczególnie że baranem była zapewne kukła zręcznie poruszana przez aktora. Źródłem uciechy publiczności były też balety komiczne jak w finale Odludka, dobijanie się do drzwi, połajanki otwierających, które pojawiały się już w Acharniakach. Charakterystyczne dla wcześniejszych sztuk Menandra jest oparcie komizmu sztuki na charakterze głównego bohatera. Umiejętność karykaturalnego charakteryzowania postaci pozostaje znakiem rozpoznawczym dramatopisarza. W Odludku każdy kontakt z Knemonem jest okazją do automatycznego wybuchu złości starego zgryźliwca. Artysta sięga też umiejętnie po komizm sytuacyjny, komizm "diabła na sprężynce" polegający na powtarzaniu tej samej sytuacji: ponawiane nachodzenie Knemona przez Getę i Sikona, czy, wspomniane już, stopniowanie wpadania do studni. Inną odmianą komizmu sytuacyjnego jest "komizm marionetek" polegający na tym, że postaci działając, jak im się wydaje, swobodnie, w istocie są kukiełkami w ręku innych, jak choćby manipulowany przez bóstwo Sostratos, czy Knemon w ręku Gety i Sikona.

Moviefone's horror highlights
← return to Movies in Toto
By Christian Toto The Washington Times - October 31, 2008, 11:32AM
When the folks at Moviefone decided to compile a list of the 31 scariest movie moments of all time, they had no qualms digging deep into the vaults.
"Some of those go all the way back to when Count Orlok first looks at the camera in 'Nosferatu.' Some of that stuff still holds up," says Moviefone Editor-in-Chief Scott Robson of the 1922 fright fest.
The list includes expected favorites like "The Sixth Sense," "The Birds" and "Psycho." Coming in at number one — "The Shining."
"We considered more than one 'Shining' moment for the list," Robson says. Ultimately, Moviefone chose the image of those creepy twins in the hotel hallway.
Horror movies might get short shrift come Oscar time, but they effectively tap into the audience's primal fears.
"There's something about horror films that, when they're done really well, affect you unlike any other movie can," he says.
One non-horror movies made the cut.
"The flying monkeys from 'The Wizard of Oz' … generations of film goers are scared by them," he says.
While recent fright flicks like "The Descent" (2006) made the list at no. 17, Robson thinks the task of making a great horror film is getting tougher all the time. Today's audiences have become jaded to the tricks of the trade.
"The music builds to a crescendo and out pops the ghoul … it doesn't have the impact it might have had years ago," he says.
And some movies make the mistake of thinking the more blood gets spilled, the more the audience will shriek in terror. That's hardly a fair equation, he says. Just consider the "Saw" franchise, a profitable film series which releases a new installment each Halloween. None of the "Saw" features made the Moviefone list.
"We looked at those films. But there's nothing scary about them. They're gory and gross," he says.

At 1.8 billion years old, this UNESCO World Heritage Site in the Brazilian Highlands is the oldest rock formation on earth. The washed out grey rocks in the Vale da Lua, or Valley of the Moon, have been smoothed and shaped by the clear waters of the San Miguel River, which runs across it. Over the years, the water has drawn sand particles across the rock surface, creating friction and digging craters.
When to go: Since heavy downpours during the rainy season mean that the river is always flowing and temperatures are always tolerable, you can visit at any time. Bear in mind that high season in Brazil runs from the end of December through March, so prices for flights and accommodations will be pricier then. You do not need to worry too much about crowds at Valley of the Moon, though: many locals aren't even aware of its existence.
What to do: The Valley of the Moon is situated within Chapada dos Veadeiros National Park, which covers 253 square miles of land. Only three percent of the park is open to tourism; the remainder is used for research or preservation. You can see endangered species like pampas deer, maned wolves, and giant armadillos within the park, as well as 25 variations of orchids unique to the area. You can also hike up the 1,315-foot-high Serra de Santana peak, the highest point within the park, and explore the many waterfalls and canyons.


Bitcoin price rose on Tuesday to trade in close proximity to its last week's levels as the People's Bank of China continued devaluing its currency, to which Bitcoin has a strong correlation.
The value of the yuan touched its lowest level in eight years on Tuesday as the Chinese currency lengthened its accelerated drop against the US dollar, which started with Donald Trump's victory in the US presidential election. The Chinese central bank, which assigns daily fixings for the price of the yuan, tolerated the depreciation of its currency for eight consecutive trading sessions against the dollar as the greenback enjoyed its global surge.
Even with today's gains, Bitcoin remains behind its recent highs that it reached before to the US elections. The digital currency is behaving as a safe haven, thus has been unable to return to its previous levels. However, Bitcoin could be supported by the Indian demand for haven assets, which is on the rise following the surprising decision from India's Prime Minster Narendra Modi to ban the 500 and 1,000 rupee bills. Modi's move aims to stop counterfeit money, however it affects 86% of the cash in the country.
Meanwhile, Bitcoin enthusiasts are eyeing the signaling for Segregated Witness, which starts on Wednesday. The solution that was proposed by the Bitcoin Core developers targets the virtual currency's block size problem and enables it to have a better ability to scale. Once the signaling starts, the network will need to reach 95% consensus for SegWit to be activated, a target that can prove challenging to reach. A single large mining pool with a size similar to the size of the Chinese ViaBTC pool can stop the activation of SegWit, unless the activation threshold is lowered.
BTC/USD traded at 714.4 as of 19:57 GMT, as the pair rose from its opening level at 704.9. BTC/USD touched 740.0 on November 9, before its downtrend took it to 684.7 on November 13.

Despite opposition from local residents, RCSI has been given the green light to expand its presence in Dublin city centre with a €90m development.
The Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland (RCSI) has been given permission by An Bord Pleanála to build a new €90m education and research building to extend its city centre campus. According to The Irish Times, the building will be seven storeys in height and will include research labs, classrooms, catering and recreational facilities.
RCSI has been backed with a €40m loan from the European Investment Bank (EIB) to develop the building, which will require the demolition of a vacant office block at the site of the former Eircom headquarters, the Ardilaun Centre. It will also take over the site of a smaller office building on Proud's Lane.
Speaking at the signing of the agreement with the EIB last October, RSCI CEO Prof Cathal Kelly said that the new development would mark "the most exciting and transformative phase" of the institution's journey.
"Our campus has constantly evolved to meet the medical challenges and opportunities of each new generation," he said.
"The redevelopment of Ardilaun Block A will further transform the way in which we educate our students so they can learn, grow and prepare to take their place as the medical leaders of the 21st century. It will also provide a space that engages and involves the local community and plays a dynamic role in the life of the city."
In the planning documents, consultants acting for RCSI said the new site would enliven the surrounding area of the city in what they claimed was an underutilised site.
"The proposed development is central to the college's ability to attract high quality students and staff," they said.

Issues raised
An Bord Pleanála upheld the decision of Dublin City Council to approve the development, despite opposition from local residents and An Taisce. The planning board rejected complaints made by both parties, with RCSI having previously revised its original plans by removing one storey from the development over fears its visual impact would be overbearing on nearby residents.
The Cuffe Lane Residents Homeowners group raised concerns over potential disruption caused by any construction work, but still broadly approved the development. However, An Taisce said that the plans did not take into account the "historic environs of St Stephen's Green" or nearby historic sites such as the adjoining Unitarian church.
RCSI is the second academic institution to announce an expansion in Dublin 2 in recent years, with Trinity College Dublin last month receiving Government backing worth €150m for its planned €1bn expansion in the so-called 'Silicon Docks' area of the city centre.
The plan is to build a 5.5-acre campus in the Grand Canal Dock district, which will also be a hub for start-ups, a landing zone for foreign direct investment (FDI) companies as well as home to a community of venture capital companies, and public and civic spaces.

Q: GraphQLName annotation I am creating a simple login app using spring boot with Kotlin + GraphQL. @GraphQLName("") is not working for me.
my graphql is
schema {
    query: Query
    mutation: Mutation
}
type Mutation{
    requestOTP(credential: String!,authType: String!): String
}

and in my kotlin
@Controller
class ResetPassword(
    @Autowired val userRepository: UserRepository
): GraphQLMutationResolver {
@GraphQLName("requestOTP")
fun reset(credential: String, authType: String): String{
//codes...
}
}

But It keep saying
Error starting Tomcat context. Exception: org.springframework.beans.factory.UnsatisfiedDependencyException. Message:
 Error creating bean with name 'graphQLServletRegistrationBean' defined in class path resource [graphql/kickstart/autoconfigure/web/servlet/GraphQLWebAutoConfiguration.class]: Unsatisfied dependency expressed through method 'graphQLServletRegistrationBean' parameter 0; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.UnsatisfiedDependencyException:

 com.auth.test.presentation.ResetPassword.requestOTP(~credential, ~authType)
 com.auth.test.presentation.ResetPassword.getRequestOTP(~credential, ~authType)

If I rename fun reset to fun requestOTP, the code compile even I put @GraphQLName("LOLnothingLOL")
. Kindly explain me why I am getting this error and how to fix it. I don't want to use requestOTP directly to have more readability.
Edit:
I am not using pom.xml instead build.gradle

A: Let's try to understand the issue.
Unsatisfied dependency expressed through method 'graphQLSchemaProvider' parameter 0; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.UnsatisfiedDependencyException: Error creating bean with name 'graphQLSchema' defined in class path resource [graphql/kickstart/autoconfigure/tools/GraphQLJavaToolsAutoConfiguration.class]: Unsatisfied dependency expressed through method 'graphQLSchema' parameter 0; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'schemaParser' defined in class path resource [graphql/kickstart/autoconfigure/tools/GraphQLJavaToolsAutoConfiguration.class]: Bean instantiation via factory method failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.BeanInstantiationException: Failed to instantiate [graphql.kickstart.tools.SchemaParser]: Factory method 'schemaParser' threw exception; nested exception is graphql.kickstart.tools.resolver.FieldResolverError: No method found as defined in schema <unknown>:44 with any of the following signatures (with or without one of [interface graphql.schema.DataFetchingEnvironment, class graphql.GraphQLContext] as the last argument), in priority order:

In above error message if you notice last statement, issue is very clear.
nested exception is graphql.kickstart.tools.resolver.FieldResolverError: No method found as defined in schema <unknown>:44 with any of the following signatures (with or without one of [interface graphql.schema.DataFetchingEnvironment, class graphql.GraphQLContext] as the last argument), in priority order:

So the issue is, in your Controller class, Mutation method name is reset() but in GraphQl schema file method name is requestOTP(). Both should be same.
schema {
    query: Query
    mutation: Mutation
}
type Mutation{
    requestOTP(credential: String!,authType: String!): String
}

Also I can see you are using org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-graphql dependency in your build.gradle file. This dependency is enough for GraphQL implementation with Spring Boot. Please remove other GraphQL related dependencies. They are creating confusion in Spring ECO system.
Also if you writing GraphQL schema file yourself then no need to use @GraphQLName annotation.
