The 1972 Winter Olympics, officially the  and commonly known as Sapporo 1972 (), was a winter multi-sport event held from February 3 to 13, 1972, in Sapporo, Japan. It was the first Winter Olympic Games to take place outside Europe and North America.

Host city selection

Sapporo first won the rights to host the 1940 Winter Olympics, but Japan resigned as the Games' host after its 1937 invasion of China. The 1940 Games were later cancelled. All the cities awarded Games that were cancelled due to war have since hosted the Games (London, Tokyo, Helsinki, Sapporo and Cortina d'Ampezzo).

Sapporo competed with Banff, Lahti, and Salt Lake City. The Games were awarded at the 64th IOC Session in Rome, Italy, on April 26, 1966.

In preparation, the Japanese constructed new largescale facilities at Sapporo and conducted a trial run a full year in advance of the Games. An international sport week was held in February, 1971, to assess the city's preparations as well as "to test its civic mettle and hospitality", and this effort was acclaimed by Olympic observers as "a complete success". The development of new infrastructure proved to be a huge boon for the Sapporo economy: by the time of the Games, the national government had invested some US$500 million in upgrades, including a new subway. The Games' organizers themselves turned a healthy profit in part because they arranged a record $8.47 million for broadcast rights.

Highlights

Emperor Shōwa became the third dignitary to open the Olympic Games twice (first time in summer 1964), after Adolf Hitler had done in winter and summer 1936, then Giovanni Gronchi in winter 1956 and summer 1960.
Prior to these games, Japan had never won a gold medal, and had won only one medal (silver by Chiharu Igaya in 1956) overall, in the Winter Olympics. The host country's fans in Sapporo were boosted when three Japanese athletes, led by Yukio Kasaya, swept the ski jumping 70 m (current K-90 normal hill) event for gold (Kasaya), silver (Akitsugu Konno), and bronze (Seiji Aochi); those would also be the only medals Japan would earn in these Olympics.
Galina Kulakova of the USSR won all three cross-country skiing events for women.
Dutch skater Ard Schenk won three gold medals in speed skating.
In Women's Alpine Skiing, American Barbara Cochran, one of three siblings on the U.S. Ski Team, became the first U.S. woman since Andrea Mead Lawrence to win a gold medal in skiing when she took first place in the slalom.
In Alpine skiing, virtual unknown Swiss Marie-Thérès Nadig won both the downhill and the giant slalom events.
Magnar Solberg from Norway was the first repeat winner in the individual 20 km biathlon event, having first won in Grenoble.
Spain scored its first Winter gold medal courtesy of slalom skier Francisco Fernández Ochoa. Poland did the same with Wojciech Fortuna winning large hill ski jumping competition.
American female speedskaters Anne Henning and Dianne Holum made the United States' best showing in the Winter Games, winning two gold, a silver, and a bronze.
Three days before the Games, controversy over amateur status arose when IOC president Avery Brundage threatened to disqualify 40 alpine skiers who received endorsement and other deals. Austrian skier Karl Schranz, who received over $50,000 per year from ski manufacturers, was banned as an example. Meanwhile, Canada refused to send an ice hockey team, maintaining that professional ice hockey players from Communist nations were allowed to compete with no restrictions.
On a historical note, these Games are the last where a skier won the gold medal using all-wooden skis. Since this time, top-level cross-country skiers use skis made mostly of fibreglass synthetics.
In female Figure skating event, American skater Janet Lynn won not only a bronze medal, but also tremendous popularity among Japanese audiences because of her artistic free program, as to make appearance on the cover of "Olympic Winter Games, Sapporo 1972" photo books published in Japan, and even on Japanese TV commercials later.
Luge had its only tie in the history of the Winter Olympics in the men's doubles event.

Spring is finally in the air (no matter how cold it is where you live). March is officially over and you know what that means….baseball season is here! Oh wait, this is an investing blog. We mean that we all get the chance to put together our Dividend Income summary reports and find out how well we are progressing in this journey towards financial freedom. You all know the drill by now. Each month, we pull together a report of dividend income from many other bloggers in the community to see their progress! We wish we could summarize them all, trust us. Now, let's take a look at how some of our fellow bloggers perform during March.

Chimpanzees (sometimes called chimps) are one of two exclusively African species of great ape that are currently extant. Native to sub-Saharan Africa, both are currently found in the Congo jungle. Classified in the genus Pan, they were once considered to be one species. However, since 1928, they have been recognized as two distinct species: the common chimpanzee (P. troglodytes) live north of the Congo River and the bonobo (P. paniscus) who live south. (Excerpted from Wikipedia).
Lovely Maxine, thanks for joining the challenge.
When I saw the chimpanzee style challenge I knew what I had to do... done with my usual gel pens.


This 'crazy red', from the small Carmignano area in northern Itlay, is 70% Sangiovese, blended with the two main noble Bordeaux varieties following in the footsteps of the Super Tuscans, for a well-rounded, sophisticated modern style of wine. Remarkably full-bodied for an Italian blend, the Cabernet and Merlot influences are evident, with extra weight and plum and blackcurrant fruit joining the Sangiovese's taut red cherry backbone. Drink with super-rich pasta sauces, roast lamb or pan-fried duck breast.

Just curious, that's all. And in a real hankering mood for a meal of fresh catfish after several months of being stuck in the office in the middle of Minnesota during the dead of winter. Just curious how soon after ice out channel cats might start biting in a known hot spot. Just curious what some of the better baits might be — and would that change as spring progresses. Just curious, that's all.
So I kept a close watch on the ice conditions at a nearby reservoir with lots of channel cats, with the intent to begin fishing on the day of ice-out and to continue fishing until I'd proven something — anything — relative to fishing for ice out channel catfish.
The hot spot I'll be fishing when I can for the next couple weeks is a bridge area connecting two portions of this reservoir. Large numbers of catfish winter in the deeper reservoir section west of the bridge, then move through this bridge pass on their way into the shallower portion east of the bridge. Many cats also move up a small river that flows into a section of the deep portion of the reservoir, but you need a boat to fish most of these spots. I'll keep things simple, fishing from shore at the bridge area.
On lakes and reservoirs, by the way, bridges can be prime spots for contacting channel catfish, particularly during spring into early summer. Bridge spots with current during summer often produce fish all summer long. Some of these areas also get going again during fall, as catfish migrate back toward deeper wintering areas.
Fishing in these areas almost always is best on the downcurrent side of the bridge, unless the upcurrent side offers much better habitat, such as a deep hole or pieces of cover like logs or brush. Sometimes cats also like to hold around nearby docks that attract minnows.
March 30 — Water temperature 39°F; air temperature 50°F; light westerly wind; partly cloudy.
It's a little cool today, but after a long winter, wetting a line is a pleasant experience. This is a Tuesday, and I've bumped away from my desk at noon to get in a couple hours of fishing during the warmest part of the day. As I walk down to the edge of the water below the bridge, I see light current moving under the bridge from the west (deeper side) to the east (shallow side).
The channel under the bridge usually runs 5 to 6 feet deep, but the water is up a foot or so. The channel cut widens as it moves out from the bridge, shallowing slightly to 6 feet. The channel stays deeper toward the south bank. Indeed, to the north, a 3- to 4-foot-deep bar extends from the shoreline into the channel. Beyond the bar, which is on the side of the bridge I'm fishing, the water pretty much runs 5 to 6 feet deep.
My bait this day by necessity are nightcrawlers, for I've been unable to find chubs or suckers in any of the area baitshops, to use as cutbait. In Minnesota, most folks won't be needing bigger bait until they begin fishing for pike and walleyes in May when the season opens. Fishing for channel cats generally doesn't register here. The fellow in the baitshop finds me a bit strange, admitting that I'm going to fish for channel cats.
So crappie minnows are all that's available at this baitshop. Now I've often caught channel cats by using four or five small minnows on a #4 hook, but this shop has only microscopic minnows for sale. It would take 700 of them to make a decent presentation. Hopefully, I'll be able to pick up cutbait for my next fishing session. I also have along with me two popular dipbait blends, one Sonny's Super Sticky and the other Cattracker's Sewer Bait.
Looking at my watch, I'll be making my first cast at just about 2 o'clock. I'm using a fat crawler run through several times on a #1 hook anchored with a one-ounce bell sinker held about 6 inches above the crawler with a single BB lead shot. Twenty-pound SpiderWire Fusion or Berkley Fireline (I don't remember which) is on this long spinning rod-and-reel combo I use to longline for walleyes. Not much cover here, and I'm not expecting anything I can't handle. Big fish here rarely top 10 pounds and aren't likely to put up a mighty tussle in this cold water.
I place my first cast on the edge of the eddy and the deeper water along the bar running slightly northeast from the bridge. While the current here isn't heavy enough to discourage cats, at least some fish still almost always relate to current edges. Tightening up my line, I place the rod in a forked stick left over from the previous fishing season. Looking out into the lake beyond, I can see the ice is only half out. Another day or so should do it. This really is an ice-out challenge.
I don't even have time to sit down on my cooler. No more than a minute, first bite. Easy now. Drop the rod tip slightly toward the fish but still keep the line relatively tight. Wumpa, wumpa, I can feel the fish has the bait in his mouth shut tight. The wumpa, wumpa is the fish moving his head left-right as he begins to move slightly. I ease the rod tip along with him for a foot or so, then set. Yes. Fish on. Near shore the fish, which is a solid two pounds or so, puts up a determined fight, running left, then right, then diving for the riprap at my feet. He looks so fine on my stringer. Catfish for dinner tonight. Life is grand.
Before I have time to decide on a recipe, I have another fish on. From the same spot. On a crawler. This one bites differently — punk, punk, punk (the fish's pinning the bait against the bottom trying to pick it up). Then thunk, finally gets it into his mouth and moves off about a foot. Won't move farther, but I can still feel the fish, so I set and connect. This one's about 11⁄2 pounds. Nice fat fish. The fins on both fish are covered with leeches. They apparently spent a fair part of the winter resting on the bottom somewhere.
In the next 15 minutes, I catch two more cats and miss one. Need one more fish for my limit, and it takes another 20 minutes to catch it. By this time, given not getting bit right away after casting out my bait, I'm casting to different spots, hoping cats are positioned in different spots in the current area. After trying four other spots, I cast back to the eddy edge to catch the fifth fish, my big fish for the day at perhaps 4 pounds.
Time to try the dipbaits. In the 50°F air temperature, neither bait stays on a plastic dipworm well. Should have taken care to keep the bait warmer. Should have added a little vegetable oil to the dips to loosen them up. Too late now. I have enough dip on the worm, though, to fish it. The essence, that is the taste and smell, is what counts.
No bites. I note, though, that the bite was already dying before I began to fish the dips. Did I clean out the cats holding in the area? Did I hook the five fish and spook the others? I can't get a bite. Switching back to crawlers, I still can't get a bite. So far, I've been fishing for just over an hour. I move to the upcurrent side of the bridge. Nothing. Back to my original position. A bite. The fish is a small carp. Then a perch. Then a small walleye. No more cats. I take all five catfish home for the larder.
April 3 — Stiff east by northeast wind blowing into my spot and against the current flow. Water temperature 40°F. Air temperature 34°F. Heavily overcast skies. All the ice is out.
The water appears to have cleared since my visit four days ago, but the wind has almost stopped the current flow. Couldn't get cutbait, so I'm relying on crawlers. Sure would be nice to at least try the cutbait.
I make a cast to the hot spot, but can't get a bite. I try casting to different spots, letting the bait work in each one for about five minutes. Thirty minutes pass. It's too cold to sit in this wind any longer, so I try the opposite side of the bridge. At least I'll be out of the wind. No bites. Back to the other side of the bridge for 20 minutes. No bites. This is the first time I've fished this spot over the course of two years and perhaps 10 visits without catching a catfish. Didn't try the dipbaits.
April 7 — Mild (55°F) but windy (15 to 20 mph) from the west. Water temperature 44°F.
The wind is moving current steadily from west to east under the bridge. The water's clear, and I immediately catch a two-pound catfish by casting a nightcrawler to the eddy edge, which was the hot spot on day-one. In-Fisherman Editor Jeff Simpson is fishing with me today. Takes 10 minutes for him to get our next bite. He swings and misses, then shortly after, so do I. The fish are tentative, bumping the bait against the bottom, probably to taste the bait, then barely picking it up. But then they won't move off so it's hard to get an angle on the fish to ensure a hookset.
We catch five fish over the course of the first hour, missing three fish. I fish dipbait for 15 minutes but don't get bit. Then, curiously, redhorse suckers move in, and we absolutely can't catch another cat. We try many different casts to different locations, but all but two of the fish and one miss have come from the general area of the eddy edge that's been so productive. Again, no cats on the upcurrent side of the bridge.
Seems cats are present when we arrive, then we either quickly catch the ones that are present or catch a good share of them and spook the rest. Simpson scores big-fish honors this day, with one about four pounds. The rest run 11⁄2 to 21⁄4 pounds. Take two fish home to eat.
April 11 — Wind at about 15 mph from the north-northeast. Air temperature 34°F. Water temperature 42°F. Overcast.
This is Sunday, and as difficult as the weather is today, it was worse on Saturday, when the wind was even stronger from straight east. Given my experience with the poor fishing when the wind was blowing into my spot on April 3, I decide not to fish Saturday, in hopes that on Sunday the weather will moderate. That might have been a mistake (and I had wanted badly to fish two days in a row to see how it affected the fishing), for I proceed, beginning at about noon, to catch five fish in 40 minutes, before, as now has become typical on each trip, the fishing slows. In the next 20 minutes I miss another fish, then catch a final fish.
This is the first day I've had cutbait along, but because I've been fishing each previous day with nightcrawlers, I decide not to use the cutbait until I can no longer catch fish on crawlers. The last fish is on cutbait. But it takes almost 20 minutes to catch it.
My guess is that the fish that are present would bite cutbait as well as crawlers if it were the first thing I presented to them. But I'll never know for sure. Certainly, my hot spot is worth a bunch of quick fish before the fishing slows. Again, it's impossible to determine whether or not the slowdown is due to removing most of the fish or spooking the remaining fish. That's why I wanted to fish two days in a row. Would the fish build back up in the spot that quickly?
It's curious how fish can be so hot, even in difficult weather conditions, that they go immediately and then shut down completely. I haven't tried dipbaits today because of the air temperature. Haven't caught a catfish yet on one of the dips. Yet dips have proven to be a hot option in this spot during summer. The earliest I've caught fish on dips here is early May, with water temperature hovering around 55°F, air temperature in the 60°F range.
Perhaps current made the difference on this otherwise difficult day weatherwise. Even with a cold wind blowing in, the increasing water level over the last weeks has made the current run steady and fairly strong. The weather report is for calm mild conditions with temperatures increasing to 65°F by Wednesday, April 14, which will be the final day of my experiment.
April 14 — Clear, calm, air temperature 60°F. Water temperature 46°F.
I'm here late this day, making my opening cast at 3 o'clock. What a beautiful day. After taking the water temperature and noting the increase, I'm ready for my first cast, which will be with a piece of freshly cut sucker. My plan is to alternate casts between cut sucker and nightcrawler. As usual, I catch a fish within minutes of my first cast to the current edge area. Typical 2-pound cat. I mention at this point that having cleaned fish over the course of the last weeks, the only food the fish have had in their stomachs were portions of the crawlers I've been using to catch them. Still, these fish are fat as can be, and obviously they're ready to feed. Five of the fish I've cleaned have been males, two females.
The second cast, this time with a crawler, produces another fish, within about five minutes of splashdown. This day I total six more fish (eight in all, with two misses) before the catching dies. This takes place within an hour of my arrival at 3 o'clock. I fish until 5 o'clock without another hit from a catfish, although I catch two carp and several suckers, plus a bluegill and a perch, all on crawlers. Ten to fifteen minutes of fishing with dips doesn't produce a fish.
While dipbaits haven't been a productive factor in this experiment, I've caught enough catfish on them shortly after ice-out to suggest that you keep them on hand. The main ingredient in fishing them successfully at this time of year might depend on what the cats are feeding on. Sour baits work well in rivers and reservoirs with winter-killed shad, and cats move in after ice-out to feed on them. But dipbaits also often work well in these areas at this time.
Air temperature seems to be a factor, too. Below about 55°F, unless you take particular care to keep dipbaits warm, some don't stick well. Toad Smith used to carry a little plastic squeeze bag of the stuff held under each armpit. I usually keep the vats near the heater in the truck, then alternate between two vats, keeping one wrapped in newspaper or a towel in a cooler, while the other one's near the heater. Baits that stick better have been developed this past year.
Nightcrawlers remain a readily available and potent bait for cats in early season , not just for channel cats, but for blues and flatheads, too. I'm guessing that crawlers are particularly overlooked during early season for those last two species. Bullheads could be a problem on some waters, however. But then I don't mind a mess of bullhead fillets just after ice-out.
I also wouldn't be on the water anywhere during early season without fresh cutbait, so long as it's available. It remains, in my mind, overall the most consistently productive natural bait over the course of the season for channel cats and blues. Sometimes early on, sour baits will outfish it. The best sour baits are dead shad gathered along a shore of a river or reservoir where you're fishing. Keep them in plastic bags. Doesn't hurt if they get a little bit warm, but if they're already soured, don't leave them in the sun any longer because they'll just deteriorate. If they aren't sour enough, leave them in the sun for an afternoon or two.
My favorite sour bait remains winter-killed carp or buffalo. We're talking real sour here. One 5- to 10-pound fish goes a long way filleted and cut into strips. Slip your hook once through the tough outer skin. Often these baits will last for a half dozen fish. I've caught a fair number of channel cats just on the skin alone — no meat left on the bait.
If I can catch cats at ice-out in Minnesota, you have a fair shot at fish where you live, especially in those portions of the country that don't freeze. The key there is watch the weather. Even during the dead of winter an extended warm-up streak can get channel cats biting. A couple days of warm weather isn't enough. Watch for four or five days to a week of warming weather. Cats get going best and quickest in ponds. You can almost always, though, catch some cats before most people expect it.


Storied watches going missing are always a point of fascination for collectors. After all, it wasn't too long ago that people were saying, "I wonder what happened to Paul Newman's Paul Newman Daytona." One such watch story revolves around the Speedmaster worn by NASA astronaut Donn Eisele, who flew on the Apollo 7 Mission into Earth's orbit with crew mates Wally Schirra and Walt Cunningham. Eisele, like many other NASA astronauts, wore an issued Speedmaster on his wrist, and that watch was inscribed SEB12100039-002 (the part number for NASA Speedmasters) and given a unique serial number, "34." In 1989, two years after Eisele's passing, the watch was stolen from a display at the Instituto Geográfico Militar in Quito, Ecuador (the watch was on loan from the Smithsonian.) An investigation was launched, but the thief was never found.
For nearly 30 years, the watch stayed missing—that is, until just five months ago, when a watch with a very curious inscription surfaced on the Web. It was Eisele's stolen watch, and it was in Mexico City.
For the full account and background on how the watch was found and recovered, check out this fantastic write up here and here.


Today, on Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI) Awareness Day, the Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety (CCOHS) reminds workplaces to learn the causes of, and help prevent, repetitive strain injuries.
To help workplaces promote International Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI) Awareness Day in their workplace and work towards preventing these injuries, the CCOHS website www.ccohs.ca/events/rsi has a dedicated page populated with free infographics, shareable social media images and messaging, informative fact sheets, posters, and podcasts.
International Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI) Awareness Day falls on the last day of February, the only non-repetitive day of the year and is a day dedicated to education about, and prevention of repetitive strain injuries.
2.3 million Canadian adults annually experience a musculoskeletal disorder serious enough to limit their normal activities; the majority of these injuries are work-related.

This product was a easy OEM direct replacement part, my old VCT was worn out and started making the classic rattling noise. A common wear and tear problem in the black top edition SR20DET and DE variants, once I replaced the part the noise went away, and operation of the vehicle was back to normal I also replaced the VCT solenoid just for that extra bit if piece of mind well wort it.

Golf In Milano, built on an area of 115.000 sqm in the Forlanini park, is only 5,5 kilometers away from the center of Milan. The structure offers the player a long driving range of 290 meters with a dual opposing array of shooting tees. The six-hole, par 23 for a total lenght of 1.600 meters, with large water hazards and deep bunkers, are technically exciting and visually striking thanks to its excellent integration into the typical regional countryside.


SEO copywriting simply refers to ensuring that the written copy ranks excellently in the search engine. It is the wish of everyone as he or she creates a website and update content does that with the intention of having as many visitors to the website as possible. For one to rank, he or she should know more than just creating a website and uploading content on it. One would need to focus on building authority, sell products and engages readers using his or her content. Only where one gets it right, one would easily reach out to the potential clients through the web page in question and definitely rank higher on the search engine. One, as a result, would need to make sure that he or she has the best knowledge of putting down convincing content.
To begin with, one would need to start by ensuring that he or she gets it right in identifying his or her audience. One would need to focus on having the right people visiting the website and hence take action. While retaining the current audience is essential, one would also need to make sure that he or she widens the audience base by finding ways of having more visitors.
One would also need to make sure that he or she comes up with magnetic headlines for his or her content. It would be essential for one to also make sure that he or she takes his or her time to put add a headline that easily gets to the heart of the reader. As a matter of facts, you would need to make sure that you focus on ensuring that you create a worthwhile first impression every time a client comes across your content.
It would also be essential for you to make sure that you try alphanumeric in the crafting of the headings of your content. A good number of people tend to ensure that they read in where numbers are involved with some skimming through the content. One would find himself opening the content even when he or she is doing it just for the sake of it only to be attracted by the content and end up reading through. You may also need to know that SEO techniques should be used even on the title of the content in question where applicable. You would also need to make sure that any reader can skim through the whole content within the shortest time possible. You may also need to make use of italics and bolds, shorten paragraphs, and give answers good fonts, case and strategically designing your content.

Q: MSVS2017, Boost C++ error with namespaces Can anyone help me out. I stumbled into a roadblock.
I've modified the project properties to include the Boost header path, and Boost linker path--plus the 'not using predefined header files' options'
Some how, Visual studio can't see std_in/std_out as part of the boost::process namespace.
I've compile the same file on Linux, and it works fine. Same version of Boost 1.78.0.
namespace bp = ::boost::process;

bp::opstream chldInput;
bp::ipstream chldOutput;

bp::child c(cmd.c_str(), bp::std_out > chldInput, bp::std_in < chldOutput);

A: It's not that it can't see bp::std_in and bp::std_out. It's because you've swapped the streams.

*

*ipstream is an implementation of a reading pipe stream - a stream that you can use in a similar way as std::istreams, like std::cin.

*opstream is an implementation of a write pipe stream - a stream that you can use in a similar way as std::ostreams, like std::cout.

However, bp::std_out needs to go to a bp::ipstream (which you then can read from) and bp::std_in needs its input from an bp::opstream (that you can write to).
Example:
bp::child c(cmd.c_str(), bp::std_out > chldOutput, bp::std_in < chldInput);

Since chldInput isn't connected to anything, you may want to use stdin instead:
bp::child c(cmd.c_str(), bp::std_out > chldOutput, bp::std_in < stdin);

You may also want to c.wait() for the command to finish.
Swapping the streams like you've done will likely generate an error like
program.cpp: In function 'int main()':
program.cpp: error: no match for 'operator>' (operand types are 'const boost::process::detail::std_out_<1>' and 'boost::process::opstream' {aka 'boost::process::basic_opstream<char>'})
      |     bp::child c(cmd.c_str(), bp::std_out > chldInput, bp::std_in < chldOutput);
      |                              ~~~~~~~~~~~ ^ ~~~~~~~~~
      |                                  |         |
      |                                  |         boost::process::opstream {aka boost::process::basic_opstream<char>}
      |                                  const boost::process::detail::std_out_<1>

(and a few hundred lines more).

GIFF XXII COMES TO A CLOSE
By Imagen Giff
GIFF wraps another edition filled with unforgettable moments
The twenty-second edition of GIFF was a success in its two locations. We enjoyed the best of world cinema with a large Official Selection with national and international feature films and short films of the highest quality in genres such as documentary, experimental cinema, animation and fiction. 223 films screened and 120 of them in competition, from 47 countries, showed that Guanajuato is the quintessential home of film culture in our country
We also celebrated 100 years of Filipino cinema with a careful selection of the best of cinema in this Asian country. We celebrated classical and contemporary filmmakers who have shaped the cultural identity of their nation and continue to be a source of inspiration for emerging Filipino filmmakers.
We highlight the presence of the great Filipino filmmaker Kidlat Tahimik. Recognized by his peers as the patriarch of Filipino independent cinema, this prominent auteur received an international tribute and shared his experiences in a pleasant talk that enriched the cultural heritage of all who attended.
Among those from our country, legendary Mexican actor José Carlos Ruiz received a well-deserved tribute to his outstanding career. A professional of his trade that has earned the recognition and affection of the audience through rigor, discipline, perseverance and intelligence, always making clear that he's driven by his passion for cinema to continue working to the end of his days.
The Women in Film and Television organization recognized the contributions of Mexican actress Queta Lavat and the remarkable career of negatives restorer Guadalupe Ramírez, who with her work has exalted our national film industry.
All of them received the UNAM Film Library Medal, made with the silver nitrate of the films they have helped forge, and which is given to the most important personalities of world cinema.
In San Miguel de Allende, renowned American director Gus Van Sant received the Silver Cross in honor of a career that has created an unmistakable style focused on eccentric characters and worlds formed with great mastery. He also offered a Master Class in which he reviewed his career and took a look at his creative process.
In Guanajuato, the great filmmaker Terry Gilliam also received an international tribute for his remarkable career, which has raised freedom and creative imagination as banners. His cinema, as opposed to all kinds of conventions, expands the limits of our reality through art and forms a mold for all the dissatisfied people of this world. At his Master Class, Terry Gilliam called for the use of imagination and humor to travel through life and oppose a materialistic reality that can often be oppressive – values to which his magnificent films are undoubtedly attached.
The Music + Cinema concerts made us dance, giving a joyful touch to this international film festival. In addition to offering a space to strengthen important creative and labor ties, GIFF offered spaces for reflection with conferences, special presentations for all types of audiences, workshops, courses and a wide variety of events that gave rise to the concerns of art enthusiasts. that – among many other things – include industry and technology.
The Identity and Belonging contest celebrated a decade of telling the stories that young people from Guanajuato live. In this edition of the festival was made up of El Llano, Faroles, León es como lo pintan, Mi herencia, Pólvora and Toci. The young university students showed an enormous capacity and talent to tell the stories that belong to us all. Their efforts are an example and a note of hope for the country's culture.
The XI University Rally featured 6 teams from 6 different states of Mexico. From an exhaustive preparation over months, the filmmakers filmed their short films for 48 hours using unique location offered by a Human Heritage city as a backdrop for their stories.
The range of experiences and emotions that GIFF XXII inspires in all who participate in it is incalculable and from now on it will be part of our lives and our memories. It is for all this and much more that the Guanajuato International Film Festival thanks our sponsors, guests, organizers, participants and the general public, who made this new edition a celebration of the best that Guanajuato has to offer in the beautiful streets and screens of these two World Heritage cities.

But, a greenhouse for your orchid can literally cost a fortune and take a ton of maintenance. For example, a Phoenix Greenhouse from Charley's Greenhouse & Garden can range from $8,000 to $15,000!
I am going to show you 11-steps to an inexpensive yet, effective way to give your orchid the environment it needs to live a long and happy life! Especially in desert climate like Arizona!
The milk jug will be used to house the orchid. First, we need to cut out a window on the opposite side of the handle on the milk jug. Do this by using the marker to draw a big rectangle as shown below.
Now, cut out the rectangle. To cut with ease, try poking a hole with the scissors first and working your way around. The cut out can be disposed of when done.
The lava rocks will be used next. Simply place a single-even layer on the bottom of the milk jug. This is used because the surface area between the holes will produce the most evaporation.
In order to put our orchid inside the greenhouse, we need to repot it into the small, square plastic pot. This is the messiest part of the process so I recommend completing this step outside. Also, even though the orchid might seem fragile, it can really take a lot so don't hesitate to ruffle up the plant in this next step. We will need our Orchid Grow Mix, small plastic pot, scissors and the orchid. The first thing you need to do is grab the orchid out of the plant. I do this by holding it upside down and yanking it out.
Now, there is a ton of either moss or dirt surrounding the orchid. We need to take all the moss or dirt off. Do this by pulling the material away from the roots. When you are done, your orchid should look naked with only roots and plant showing. Before moving to the next step, be sure you cut off any dead roots that are dry and white and you trim any live roots that are longer than six inches. Six inches is the perfect length for an orchid root.
Now, cut the Orchid Mix bag and put a single layer (less than an inch) of the mix into the small, plastic pot. The Orchid Grow Mix I use needs to be pre-moistened. If yours does too, then be sure to run water through the mix before potting.
Next, use your thumb and index finger to hold the orchid over the small plastic pot. The roots that are a light green or yellow should be placed deep in the pot, while dark green roots that are short and toward the top can hang over the Orchid Grow Mix. Use your free hand to grab a handful of the Orchid Grow Mix (pre-moistened) and start filling the pot. Use your thumbs to press down on the mix to fit more inside. The mix should be filled to the top. Now, your orchid is repotted and fertilized!
Next, we need to put water into the milk jug underneath the lava rocks. The lava rocks will indicate how much water is needed. The water should never actually touch the orchid roots so we need there to be just enough water to cover the lava rocks half way.
Now, we need to place our plastic divider (preferably with holes) on top of the lava rocks. This will serve as a barrier between the water and the pot and will create an even surface for the orchid to be placed on.
It's time to place the newly potted orchid inside, simply place the orchid inside the jug on top of the plastic divider.
There is just one last step to complete your greenhouse! Take the plastic bag and place it over the milk jug as shown below.
You now have your very own homemade, inexpensive mini-greenhouse! Your orchid will love its new habitat because the temperature and the humidity inside the jug are perfect for the orchid to flourish for years to come!
Do not leave the greenhouse outside. I made this mistake and a storm came and blew my greenhouse away.
The orchid still needs to be watered one to two times a week. Just take the orchid out of the jug, water it and then put it back in the greenhouse.
The orchid will need to be re-potted when it outgrows the container.
Most orchids do not like direct sunlight so find a balanced spot for your greenhouse.

Emily Rockey is very passionate and talented in the plant world. She has had the opportunity to work at Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square, PA. The collection in Pennsylvania fascinated Emily and helped her grow an "enormous appreciation" for orchids. "They are fascinating, sometimes it seems to me that they have something like a personality," said Emily Rockey. She currently is in charge of the greenhouse, and she curates all the other plants in the Tucson Botanical Gardens Collection. Emily also belongs to the Tucson Orchid Society.
Nora Merza: How did the very first "Mad About Orchids" exhibit go?
Emily Rockey: The exhibit was a great success; we got a lot of good feedback on it. Orchids are not typically featured at gardens in our desert environment, which made it something new and special, I think. The three beginner educational courses on orchids were extremely popular; we will be offering it again this fall.
Nora Merza: What made you give orchids their own event?
Emily Rockey: I didn't actually decide on the exhibit, and oddly nor did horticulture department here at the gardens. The executive director and planning committee made the choice. But I'm glad they did, and I bet we will see it again in the future.
Nora Merza: What have you noticed that interest people the most about orchids?
Emily Rockey: People seemed to "exclaim" the most about the diverse shapes and colors of the blooms. They look so exotic. They also many grow epiphytically, perched on something (like our "tree" in the exhibit), which is different.
Nora Merza: Do you think "Orchidelirium" is just a fad, or here to stay?
Emily Rockey: It is definitely here to stay, and will only become more popular if anything. Only in recent years have beginner orchids been so available in super markets and grocery stores. They are no longer a "specialty plant." The term "Orchidelirium" refers to a period in the mid-19th century where people began to grow and be amazed by orchids. They were new and different at that time. We have learned so much about care and culture, and hybridization alone is an enormous business.
Nora Merza: Which orchid at the Mad About Orchids event is your favorite?
Emily Rockey: I have a weird favorite. It is actually a mutant plant, which is referred to as peloric. This is a Doritaenopsis, a moth orchid hybrid, a cross with a Phaleanopsis and a Doritis. This particular peloric plant has 3 lips instead of one. Look closely and you can see which one is the "proper" lip. I have applied a special hormone to try to vegetatively reproduce this plant, or get it to grow a little clone plant on it, because collecting seed from it would most likely not produce a plant with the same mutation.
Coming soon: A video of the 'Mad About Orchids' exhibit and the complete interview with Orchid Curator, Emily Rockey!
I used the rule of thirds here.
Orchid in a giant mug pot.
If you want to think like an interior designer you need to think orchids. Orchids are fashionable, trendy and they guarantee a smile with every notice. The professional's secret is to place the orchid in a fashionable pot. Try placing a pot of orchids in a giant mug and add some glamour to your kitchen sink!
And the thing that I love most is that both men and women can use orchids to twist perception to accommodate whatever mood or setting you want to exist.
And I agree! I take my boyfriend to look at orchids all the time. The type of orchids that men can decorate with are these unique masculine breeds like the Jewel Orchid.
If you live in a dorm, an apartment or any bedroom that you change frequently, I recommend going to the store and finding your decoration vision from an orchid. There are literally thousands of orchid style, colors, designs, patterns and textures that I promise you will find one that speaks to your soul and imagination!
For example, if you need to decorate a room you can visit your local grocery or home improvement store and snag some inspiration.
Use Chinese light fixtures, and you're done!
Do you have any more decorating ideas with orchids?
Chinese lamp that would prefectly compliment an orchid.
There is endless depth in the tribe of orchid lovers. There are Feng shui practitioners, tattoo enthusiast, art masters, lovers and anyone who can appreciate the beauty of a flower.
Don't forget to show the orchid love in the office too! Six Wise said that "in Rehabilitation Literature, a manufacturing company integrated plants into its office so that no employee would be more than 45 feet from greenery. The result? Company administrators said they noticed enhanced creativity and increased productivity in employees." That kind of evidence is awesome and I recommend enhancing your work environment.
Beautiful bloom of 11 orchids on the edge of office desk.
I used to think that the whole process of giving and receiving flowers was really outdated. I just was not a fan of putting my flowers in my amazing vase and then they die within four days. Orchids are the complete opposite of that. They can be a wonderful way to show someone that you not only love them, but that you care about them in a deep way. Orchids have a tendency to provide long term fulfillment.
Orchids have evolved into one of the most popular house plants to own. Since orchids hit the mainstream, the world has become a much more beautiful place. Orchids are the latest, greatest trend happening in flowers because they are drop dead gorgeous, they are easy to grow almost anywhere and they have overcome stereotypes of being overly posh and expensive.
As you can see, orchids are awe-inspiring.
"No other plant family is as diverse as the orchid family or as colorful, and no other houseplants offer flowers that can remain in bloom for months," said Wilella Stimmell, Orchid Society of Arizona member and 30-year orchid grower.
There are more than 100,000 hybrids and 25,000 – 30,000 species of orchids alive today (Wilella Stimmell).
For the most part, orchids have a very tarnished reputation. The history of orchids is responsible for the orchid's reputation. According to the Tacoma Orchid Society, orchid collecting began in the Victorian Era. Wealthy settlers in Europe would hire explorers to go search the tropics to find the most unique and exuberant orchids that existed. When the orchids would return back to them on ship, most of the orchids withered away from the long travel. The wealthy Europeans "built glass houses heated with coal furnaces," to serve as a modern day greenhouse to keep the plants alive. When they would witness an orchid in bloom, Europeans would cause frenzy and send the next crew of explorers out to collect more. The history of orchids definitely adds an extra flair to the orchid excitement. Since the Victorian Era, orchids have come a long way.
People tend to think orchids are extremely pricey and that only people living in a luxury real estate magazine can afford them. Others believe that keeping a flower like the orchid alive would require endless, sleepless nights farming in a greenhouse lab. But the truth is you don't have to visit a deserted tropical island to find one, you can just pick one up the next time you are at the grocery store. Common, everyday stores like Frys, Wal-Mart, IKEA or even Home Depot all carry orchids for $7 – $14.
Despite having complicated names, the breeds Phalaenopsis (fal-eh-NOP-sis) or Paphiopedilum (paff-ee-oh-PED-ih-lum) are the easiest to keep alive and in bloom. I have a collection of this breed all throughout my home and office. Watering this plant is simple because most of the time all that is needed is three ice cubes. When watering becomes a habit, ice cubes begin to remind you of orchids, making it much easier to remember to water. Besides three ice cubes, all the orchid needs is to be re-fertilized every couple of weeks, and that is it!
The reasons to join the orchid phenomenon are never ending. If you haven't changed your mind yet, I am going to leave you with a picture of the Phalaenopsis Brother Sara Gold to gasp at.

Q: Other ways to find the formula of a general term of the sequence $x_{n+1} = \frac{1}{2-x_n}$ where $x_1 = {1 \over 2}$
Given a sequence:
$$
x_{n+1} = \frac{1}{2-x_n}
$$
  Finding the general form of the sequence $x_n$ where $x_1 = {1 \over 2}$ and $n \in \mathbb N$

What I've done is expand the terms $n$ times and then go backwards in order to find some pattern, so:
$$
x_{n+1} = \frac{1}{2 - x_n} = \frac{1}{2-\frac{1}{2-x_{n-1}}} = \dots
$$
Now wrapping from the bottom:
$$
\frac{1}{2 - {1 \over 2}} = {2 \over 3} \\
\frac{1}{2 - {2 \over 3}} = {3 \over 4} \\
\dots \\
{1 \over {2 - \frac{n-1}{n}}} = {n \over n+1}
$$
So the pattern suggests that $x_n = {n \over n+1}$.
I'm not satisfied with that approach since i believe it's going to fail for more complicated sequences.

What approach or technique could i use to reach the same result in a more "analytical" way?

A: There are no general methods for solving $x_n=f(x_{n-1})$ where $f$ is a general function. The only way to go about it is compute $x_n$ for small values of $n$, hope to notice a pattern, then prove it by induction. If the problem is not possible by this method, you will not be expected to solve it.
However, there are some special classes which admit general solution methods. One example is
$$
f(x) = \frac{ax+b}{cx+d}
$$
The reason this works out nicely is that $x_n=f(f(\dots f(x)\dots))$, and function composition of functions resembling the above behaves exactly like matrix multiplication. To see this, compute the composition of $f$ with $g(x)=\frac{ex+f}{gx+h}$, rearrange it so it is of the form $\frac{px+q}{sx+t}$, and compare $p,q,s,t$ with the entries of matrix product
$$
\begin{bmatrix}a&b\\c&d\end{bmatrix}\cdot \begin{bmatrix}e&f\\g&h\end{bmatrix}
$$
See wikipedia for more information.
This means that a closed form for $x_n$ can be found by putting the matrix of $f$ in Jordon form, because powers of a Jordon block matrix are easy to compute.
There are a number of other recurrence relations which can be solved exactly, like linear recurrence relations with constant coefficients like $x_n=2x_{n-1}-x_{n-2}$.


Chinese New Year is a big thing here in the Philippines (despite all that disputed territory stuff). A lot of us are familiar with the traditional feast. We have had our fair share of tikoy or fried rice cakes, hopia or mung bean cakes, and pancit or noodles even if we aren't Chinese. And of course, what's a feast without a roasted something, like lechon (roasted pig) or Peking duck. But did you ever wonder why it had to be these foods that are eaten on Chinese New Year? As we know, the Chinese are a superstitious people and there is meaning in every dish they have in their New Year's feast.
Ever walked in your house to see that it's overflowing with tangerines, pomegranates, and every round fruit that's in season? To the Chinese, 8 round fruits must be served because it symbolizes infinity. If you've noticed, tangerines are favored among all the round fruits. That's because the word "orange" sounds like "gold" and "tangerine" sounds like "luck" in Chinese.
The golden color of the spring roll is associated with gold itself. A friendly reminder: the more spring rolls you eat won't really increase your luck but will increase your chances of heart failure.
It's deep fried sticky cake that is believed to be offered to the Chinese Kitchen God so that he'll tell those in the heavens that the family is in his favor. Tikoy also has three characteristics: round, sweet, and sticky. The sweet flavor symbolizes close relationships; the sticky texture symbolizes unity in the family, and the roundness means wealth.
The longer the noodles, the longer the life, they say. Not unless you choke on one.
A chicken represents togetherness and rebirth. This will help bring the family closer or let it stay together. It's also good to keep the head and feet on the chicken when serving it.
It's meant for the sweetness that is to come in the year. The layers mean the amount of abundance. Then lastly, the round shape symbolizes a family reunion.


I have stayed at Mirage before (2015) and it was damn good. I went back this time, and was disappointed with the bathroom condition. No hot water. The water from the bathtub was not flowing out. And the bathroom was getting wet from the water sipping from the sides of the bath tub. The bathroom is clean but its condition needs to be looked into. Was so upset on this.
Dear Mr.Sivakama, Thanks for your comments and we will certainly look in to your feed back and hope to Welcome you again at Mirage.
Location is out of central Colombo, but it is a great location on the beach. Some good seafood restaurants about 10 minutes down the road and other shops on Galle Road about 3 minutes walk. Staff were very helpful including the GM. Room was comfortable. Food was average.
Thanks for your comments we hope to welcome you again at Mirage.
reception is awesome. dont do booking from any website.They give cheaper price at hotel. thanks to the great room cleaning and housekeeping services. and the super delux was very Airy and clean at 7th floor. dont expect the reasturant room service to be good. most of them lacks the professional standard and etiquette. beautiful scenery and view from. 3rd floor have a small infinity pool of 4 ft. good for kids.
Thanks for your comments and we will improve the short comings you have mentioned, Hope to see you at our hotel. Thank you.Ronald Perera,C.E.O, Mirage Hotel.
Though it's late, thanks for your valuable comments.Ronald Perera,C.E.O, Mirage Hotel.
The Mirage Colombo was perfect for me to spend a few days at the end of a Sri Lankan tour. My room with a sea view was clean and spacious. The chairs by the window provided a lovely place to people watch (especially the people hanging onto the outside of the passing trains at peak hour) and see the beautiful sunsets. The train line does run parallel with the hotel but the noises did not concern me. It was some distance from the main bazaar but tuk tuks were quite cheap. As it was the end of my holiday, I was content with less chaos and happily wandered through the local shops one block back from the sea.
Unfortunately I wasn't overly impressed with this hotel : it's definitely overpriced. I had a standard room. This hotel is definitely noisy. Situated directly across from the train line, you can hear the trains passing through even when you are in your room : thankfully the trains didn't run too early or late. My room was situated close to the lifts and you could hear them. The breakfast buffet was limited although not too bad. I would suggest eating out for lunch/dinner as their are a good couple of options close by. The one big positive for this hotel is its staff, they are very helpful & friendly.
Due to location and lack of in-house services in the hotel its a serious setback.
Please visit our hotel now, you can see the change.Thanks for your valuable comments.
The hotel is new and the staff are just getting acquainted with the processes. However they were very attentive and lovely. The room was nice as well. The hall way was a bit dim but otherwise good place to stay.
It was a good, new hotel. Across the street from the beach.Nice sea view from the restaurants.
Overall the hotel is quite clean and cozy. the variety of breakfast can be better improve. communication break down between staff. will consider to stay in the same hotel again.

Man convicted of killing UNC Charlotte student granted new trial
Mark Carver, convicted of killing UNC Charlotte student Irina Yarmolenko in 2008, has been granted his request by a judge for a new trial.
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (FOX 46 CHARLOTTE) - A man convicted in 2011 for the murder of a UNC Charlotte student in 2008 has been granted a new trial.
A judge on Tuesday found Mark Carver's 2011 murder conviction is to be set aside and cited ineffective counsel. He will be granted a new trial for the murder of 20-year-old Ira Yarmolenko. The UNC Charlotte student was found strangled to death near the Catawba River.
Carver was serving life in prison for the killing.
RELATED: Man convicted of killing UNC Charlotte student in 2008 requests new trial
Prosecutors said Carver's DNA was found on Yarmolenko's car, but not on her body or the murder weapons. During his appeal process, Carver's lawyers argued more advanced DNA tests showed the DNA found in a mixture of genetic material on Yarmolenko's car can't be connected to Carver, and the state's crime lab intentionally chose not to use the new tests before his 2011 trial.

THE BLOG Unforgettable Emotional Insight from Tolstoy's "War and Peace"
WAR AND PEACE has tons of amazing, unforgettable moments in it. There's a thread listing many of them, on Goodreads. Here's one of my favorites. BTW, this text is from the spectacular translation by Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky. I can't recommend their many translations from great Russian writers, highly enough.
To the right Rostov saw the first rows of his hussars, and still further ahead he could see a dark strip, which he could not make out but thought to be the enemy. Shots were fired, but in the distance.
"Quicken the tghrot," came the command, and Rostov felt his Little Rook kick up his rump, switching to a canter.
He guessed his movements ahead of time, and felt merrier and merrier. He noticed a solitary tree ahead. This tree was first ahead of him, in the middle of the line that seemed so terrible. But then they crossed that line, and not only was there nothing frightening, but everything became merrier and livelier. "Oh, how I'm going to slash at him," thought Rostov, gripping the hilt of his saber.
"Well, now let anybody at all come along," thought Rostov, spurring Little Rook and, outstripping the others, sending him into a full gallop. The enemy could already be seen ahead. Suddenly something lashed at the squadron as if with a broad besom. Rostov raised his sword, preparing to strike, but just then the soldier Nikitenko galloped past, leaving him behind, and Rostov felt, as in a dream, that he was still racing on with unnatural speed and at the same time was staying in place. The familiar hussar Bandarchuk galloped towards him from behind and looked at him angrily. Bandarchuk's horse shied, and he swerved around him.
"What is it? I'm not moving ahead? I've fallen, I've been killed . . ." Rostov asked and answered in the same instant. He was alone now in the middle of the field. Instead of moving horses and hussar backs, he saw the immobile earth and stubble around him. There was warm blood under him. "No, I'm wounded, and my horse has been killed." Little Rook tried to get up on his forelegs, but fell back, pinning his rider's leg. Blood flowed from the horse's head. The horse thrashed and could not get up. Rostov went to get up and also fell: his pouch caught on the saddle. Where ours were, where the French were— he did not know. There was no one around.
Having freed his leg, he got up. "Where, on which side now was that line which had so sharply separated the two armies?" he asked himself, and could not answer. "Has something bad happened to me? There are such cases, and what must be done in such cases?" he asked himself, standing up; and just then he felt that something superfluous was hanging from his numb left arm. His hand was like someone else's. He examined the hand, vainly looking for blood on it. "Well, here are some people," he thought joyfully, seeing several men running towards him. "They'll help me!" In front of these people ran one in a strange shako and a blue greatcoat, dark, tanned, with a hooked nose. Two more and then many came running behind him. One of them said something strange, non-Russian. Among the men in the back, wearing the same shakos, stood a Russian hussar. He was being held by the arms; behind him they were holding his horse.
"He must be one of ours taken prisoner . . . Yes. Can it be they'll take me, too? What men are these?" Rostov kept thinking, not believing his eyes. "Can they be Frenchmen?" He looked at the approaching Frenchmen and, though a moment before he had been galloping only in order to meet these Frenchmen and cut them to pieces, their closeness now seemed so terrible to him that he could not believe his eyes. "Who are they? Why are they running? Can it be they're running to me? Can it be? And why? To kill me? Me, whom everybody loves so?" He remembered his mother's love for him, his family's, his friends', and the enemy's intention to kill him seemed impossible. "But maybe even—to kill me!" He stood for more than ten seconds without moving from the spot or understanding his situation. The first Frenchman with the hooked nose came so close that the expression on his face could already be seen. And the flushed alien physiognomy of this man who, with lowered bayonet, holding his breath, was running lightly towards him, frightened Rostov. He seized his pistol and, instead of firing it, threw it at the Frenchman, and ran for the bushes as fast as he could. He ran not with the feeling of doubt and conflict with which he had gone to the Enns bridge, but with the feeling of a hare escaping from hounds. One undivided feeling of fear for his young, happy life possessed his entire being.
"Me, whom everybody loves so?" That has stayed with me for years.

Harry Oscar Clarence Thomander, född 9 juni 1916 i Brännkyrka Stockholm, död 11 november 1998 i Örebro, var en svensk målare.

Han var son till köpmannen Oscar Thomander och Anna Hultman och från 1949 gift med Sonja Viola Lindskog. Familjen flyttade till Örebro 1921. Thomander tog realexamen på Karolinska läroverket och började 1933 som elev på Viktor Lindblads ateljé för fanor och standar på Rosta strand 21 i Örebro. Parallellt studerade han vid Harald Ericsons målarskola i Örebro och för Isaac Grünewald vid Kungliga konsthögskolan i Stockholm 1938–1943 samt under studieresor till Frankrike, Spanien och Jugoslavien. Separat ställde han ett flertal gånger på Vallins konsthandel i Örebro och han medverkade några gånger i Sveriges allmänna konstförenings salonger i Stockholm samt utställningar arrangerade av Örebro läns konstförening samt ett flertal utställningar med provinsiell konst i Örebro. Bland hans offentliga arbeten märktes utsmyckning vid det tidigare Livregementets grenadjärer I 3 i Örebro. Hans konst består av stilleben, spanska kustbilder, nordliga landskapsbilder och stadsbilder från Örebro. Thomander är representerad vid Örebro läns museum.
