Q: Flickering TSpeedButton in a TMaskEdit descendant I try to create a TComboBox like component, inherited from TMaskEdit with a TSpeedButton inside the edit itself.
The problem when I type something into the edit the most of the button disappears (the right and the bottom edge still visible). If I move the mouse over the component or exit using TAB, the button appears again.
Here is the code:
interface

uses
  Windows, Messages, SysUtils, Classes, Controls, Forms, Mask, Buttons;

type
  TMyEdit = class(TCustomMaskEdit)
  private
    FButton: TSpeedButton;
  protected
    procedure CreateButton;
  public
    constructor Create(AOwner: TComponent); override;
    procedure CreateWnd; override;
    destructor Destroy; override;
  end;

implementation

constructor TMyEdit.Create(AOwner: TComponent);
begin
  inherited;

  CreateButton;
end;

procedure TMyEdit.CreateButton;
begin
  FButton := TSpeedButton.Create(Self);
  FButton.Parent := Self;
  FButton.Align := alRight;
  FButton.Width := 16;
  FButton.Caption := '';
  FButton.Transparent := False;
end;

destructor TMyEdit.Destroy;
begin
  FreeAndNil(FButton);
  inherited;
end;

procedure TMyEdit.CreateWnd;
begin
  inherited;
  Perform(EM_SETMARGINS, EC_RIGHTMARGIN, (FButton.Width + 4) shl 16);
end;

What do I miss?

A: Solved.
WS_CLIPCHILDREN flag have to be included in the CreateParams() AND the button must be placed on TWinControl descendant (TPanel in my case) OR the button itself must be a TWinControl descendant (for example TButton). Graphic controls has no Handle, thats the problem.
Modified code:
procedure TMyEdit.CreateButton;
var
  xDrawRect: TRect;
  xPanel : TPanel;
begin
  xPanel := TPanel.Create(Self);
  xPanel.Parent := Self;
  xPanel.SetBounds(Width - Height, 0, Height, Height);
  xPanel.BevelOuter := bvNone;

  FButton := TSpeedButton.Create(Self);
  FButton.Parent := xPanel;
  FButton.Align := alClient;
  FButton.Caption := '';
end;

procedure TMyEdit.CreateParams(var Params: TCreateParams);
begin
  inherited CreateParams(Params);
  Params.Style := Params.Style or WS_CLIPCHILDREN;
end;

MIRACULOUS ESCAPE
THE occupants of two cars had a miraculous escape when a large tree fell on them in Newcastle during Thursday night's storm. The vehicles had been travelling along the Bryansford Road area, close to The Corragh housing development, when the mature tree was brought crashing down in the high winds. Luckily, and despite the serious damage caused, the cars' occupants were able to free themselves from the wreckage, with neither the NI Ambulance Service nor NI Fire and Rescue Service required to help at the scene. Although those travelling in the vehicles managed to escape uninjured, the damage sustained by the cars, one of which can be seen here the following morning as the tree was cut up, was significant. The road was closed overnight to facilitate the clear-up operation.
Local PSNI sergeant, Kenny Gracey, told the Mourne Observer that "thankfully" there were no reports of injuries. "Police received a report shortly after 6pm on Thursday that a tree had fallen on two cars in the Bryansford Road area of Newcastle due to strong winds. "Thankfully, there were no reports of any injuries," he explained. The officer added that police attended the scene to assist with traffic control, and that the road "was closed for a time to facilitate the recovery of the vehicles, and also due to a fallen power line." In addition to this section of the road, known locally as The Mile, being closed due to a fallen tree, and with a severe weather warning in place, the PSNI advised motorists to exercise caution. Several other local roads were closed by fallen trees, brought down by the strong winds, including the Carnacaville Road, outside Maghera, Seaforde's Manse Road and the Scaddy Road, near Killyleagh. A severe weather warning for wind had been in place from 3pm on Thursday until 3am the following morning. NIE said "a low level of damage" was caused to the electricity network, with some customers experiencing power cuts as a result. Widespread gusts of up to 80km/h (50 mph) had been forecast overnight, with gusts up to 115km/h (70 mph) expected in exposed coasts and hills. There were also heavy and blustery showers, causing difficult driving conditions.

It's rare that a themed anthology excites me, but Grey Friar Press's Terror Tales of the Ocean just amazed me with the quality and variety of the stories contained. It has this genius layout where the stories are alternated by short articles about real life oceanic horrors like the Bermuda Triangle, Giant Squid, and other dangers of the mysterious depths. Anyone who grew up reading about stuff like ancient aliens or psychic powers will have a lot of fun with this. And the fiction within is first rate, all the stories are either truly disturbing tales representing the cutting edge of weird horror, or are classic takes on the subject manner that embrace their pulp roots and go all out with the genre tropes. The deeper you go into the book, the weirder and stranger this book gets, just like the unexplored depths in the sunless voids of the ocean. I give this collection my highest recommendation. The best themed anthology since Grimscribe's Puppets.
Adam Nevil's Hippocampus - An incredibly creepy story which pulls a trick I have never seen a author pull off, his story is devoid of any characters. You will have to read it to know what I mean.
Conrad Williams's The Offing - A nebulous fever dream of loss and menace.
Simon Strantzas's First Miranda - An attack on the reader with it's freudian delving of the subconscious and the horrors you may find there.
Adam Golaski's Hushed Will Be The Murmurs - Another brilliant nightmarescape from one of the most talented, and underappreciated, writers in the field of weird horror fiction.
Robert Sherman's And This Is Where We Falter - A chimera of surrealism and high pulp action.

Matty Sheets (drums, vocals) has been in a large number of bands over the years, playing guitar and bass mostly, and is always writing songs. Sheets has settled into playing drums most recently, but he started in a three piece band that would alternate playing guitar, bass, and drums called the Deviled Eggs. Locals remember his stint on dirty slide guitar in alt-country band Come Hell or High Water, heading up rock and roll band Eating the Invaders, or just sitting in with whoever would have him.
Currently fronting Matty Sheets and The Blockheads, Sheets also plays drums for Emily Stewart and the Baby Teeth, and Laila Nur. With a wry sense of humor that usually comes through in his writing, he has hosted Greensboro's Open Mic Night for over a decade, and a local-focused radio program, Avant on Air, for two years. Matty also flips a mean burger at a downtown diner.


I have a special love for intimate ceremonies and would love to hear from you if you are planning to elope. I can supply you with a bridal bouquet and a buttonhole which can either be collected from my workshop, delivered or couriered to your destination.
Please get in touch to let me know your plans and we can create something perfect for you both. Prices start at £100.

EU patent: is this really the last mile?
A new unitary European Union patent is supposed to be the successor of the European patent (EP).
The current EP is actually a bundle of national patents and is subject to every national law. To cover the entire EU, translation into all 34 languages is needed.
It takes time to obtain an EP and there are considerable costs involved, both of which put Europe in a poor competitive position against, for example, the US. For some time we have eagerly awaited the new unitary patent: it would be not only much more effective but also cheaper. In addition, a unitary patent that applies directly to all member states is more suited to the unitary market of the EU.
Two separate categories exist: the translation regulation and the unitary patent regulation together, and the unitary patent treaty. According to the translation regulation French, German and English will be the official languages for the unitary patent, so just one translation is required. Italy and Spain challenged this legislation, and even went to the Court of Justice of the EU (CJEU).

Microsoft's new cloud offering targets government
Microsoft says government customers need more flexible, agile and inclusive IT solutions as they struggle to move agency operations to the cloud, and its Open Cloud platform can do just that.
By Kenneth Corbin
Freelance Writer, CIO |
What you can learn from Nordstrom's use...
As government CIOs mull their prospects in the cloud, Microsoft is trying to shed its image of a proprietary, license-driven software behemoth.
For the last several years, Redmond has been talking up its efforts to develop cloud services and applications and expand its developer ecosystem, and now, the company is positioning its technology as a hub that can bind together and support disparate systems, applications, operating systems and cloud environments.
Susie Adams, CTO of Microsoft's federal business, talks of "our general philosophy to become more open," and to support "mixed IT in a heterogeneous world."
"To do that we need to be extremely open," Adams said in a recent interview.
[ Related: Microsoft (hearts) Linux, for Azure's sake ]
Adams recalls the appearance of CEO Satya Nadella last year at an event where he displayed a slide proclaiming Microsoft's love for Linux, a symbolic move that Adams says indicates a fundamental shift within a company that has come to understand the importance and possibilities of working within an ecosystem that allows customers more freedom and flexibility than Microsoft has historically been known for.
Microsoft shopping Open Cloud platform in public sector
Microsoft is now shopping around its Cloud for Government offering, touting the security and compliance features of the system, as well as support for a variety of open source development models and mobile and productivity tools.
"I think a lot of folks in the federal audience are starting to realize that this isn't the Microsoft of 10 years ago, and that our mission has fundamentally changed," Adams says. "We are actually going back to our roots as a software company, it's just the way software is being delivered, the way people consume it, that's changed."
In the government space in particular, Microsoft sees an appetite for a cloud platform that doesn't amount to a complete gut job of an agency's existing technology apparatus. Federal CIOs have been tasked with developing strategies to bring their organizations into the cloud, but have been doing so under limited resources, often with deeply rooted legacy systems, and lingering concerns about security, privacy and control over data.
To that last point, Microsoft notes the assurance the company provides its government customers that data stored in its cloud will be stored within the United States and managed by U.S. citizens.
"At the end of the day data location and data access really matter in the cloud," Adams says. "And I'm not sure government or frankly industry really understood that."
"What we learned is that data sovereignty really matters," she says.
The vision of mixed IT can include applications from different vendors, a blend of legacy and modern systems and cloud architectures that run the gamut from private to public with hybrid in between. The company touts its efforts to support various development communities through moves like the partnership with Docker to bring that community onto Windows Server and integrating the language R into the Azure cloud.
"We want to be able to deliver open and flexible, agile support for any developer in whatever the language du jour is," Adams says.
She also says that Microsoft is moving away from the large, years-in-the-making release cycles, such as the delivery of a new operating system to market. She goes so far as to say that Windows 10 could be the "last operating system" the company produces.
"It's not meaning that it's the last innovation," she says. "We're just not going to do these gigantic releases."
"We might not call it Windows 11, but there will be a Windows 11 -- it will just be windows 10 with new innovations," she adds.

The use of knowledge/information provided in this post/article is all up to user/reader. Download official versions of games the companies who made these games deserve the credit.
In Clash of Clans mod apk there are two main modes available, that is the development and improvement of their village. The second is the very attack on goblins when you get a decent army.
The Clash of Clans needs to start with training, in which you will be shown by arrows what buildings to build, and which units to use. If, after completing the training, you still do not understand what and how to do because of the English language. Then, first of all, you should build a gold mine – to mine gold coins for many purchases.
The second important point is the standing army, which is needed to fight dangerous goblins and other online players.
The game will finally open new buildings and battle units. With real players before reaching the eighth level and the reason for the army cannot try to fight, it will only be a waste of your time.
Here you can chat and players on the chat and create powerful clans for extreme struggle. The strategy will be the main currency for purchases of gold coins and purple elixir.
The game has everything you need for a good strategy for portable gadgets: beautiful hand-drawn graphics, high-quality animation, and a beautiful environment.
A feature of the game is the location of units on the battlefield and a lot of tools on which the battle will depend. The overall picture a little spoils Donat, but how without it, because the developer must also be rewarded for good work!

Tips for beginners:
At the beginning of the game, do not waste your time on green gems for building, it is better to save them for another "builder's hall"; things will go faster with it;
Do not rush to enter into multiplayer battles against other players to at least 8 Lvl, otherwise, you will fail most of all. This time you can participate in attacks on goblins;
Brazen robbers can take revenge, for this go to the history of battles (bottom left) and after survey the enemy base you can take revenge on the thief, returning all the loot and even more;
Up to 30 Lvl should choose whom you will attack in online battles. The first thing you need to attack weak enemies because more than 90% of you win a victory, and attacking strong enemies- get defeated;
Join the clans in order to get the support of a strong army. In many clans, it is customary to thank each other for help;
You should not get involved in the game Donate because everything that you will buy for real money can be achieved by your own efforts;
In the game, you can meet many clans because anyone can create a clan. But there are very few good and intelligent players. If you joined the clan and you see that no one wants to share an army, but only donate requests are "hanging" – run away there as soon as possible.
Something new in the air!

Brazil's top court rules against da Silva on prison
By PETER PRENGAMAN and MAURICIO SAVARESEApril 5, 2018 GMT
A demonstrator against Brazil's former President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva extends a Brazilian flag outside the National Congress in Brasilia, Brazil, Wednesday, April 4, 2018. Brazil's top court could rule as soon as today whether da Silva can stay out of prison while appealing a corruption conviction, a decision that could radically alter October's presidential election in Latin America's largest nation. (AP Photo/Eraldo Peres)
RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — Brazil's top court voted narrowly in the early hours Thursday to turn down an attempt by former President Luiz Inacio da Silva to stay out of jail while he appeals a corruption conviction, a decision that will have widespread implications in this polarized nation.
After nearly 11 hours of often heated debate, the justices of the Supreme Federal Tribunal voted 6-5 to deny da Silva's preventative habeas corpus request to stave off a 12-year jail sentence while he fights a conviction in a case that he argues was nothing more than a ploy to keep him off of October's presidential ballot.
Despite the conviction and several other corruption charges pending against him, da Silva leads all preference polls for the election. The decision means he will likely be jailed soon, though probably not until at least next week thanks to various technicalities.
Within minutes of the decision, da Silva's Workers' Party, which held Brazil's presidency from 2003 to 2016, put out a tweet that foreshadowed the struggles to come.
"The Brazilian people have the right to vote for Lula, the candidate of hope," it read. "The Workers' Party will defend this candidacy on the streets and in every court until the last consequences."
The court's debate underscored how fraught the matter is at a time of high tension and angst in Brazil, which is struggling to emerge from a crippling recession and is four years into a major corruption scandal that has ensnared much of the country's elite, including da Silva.
"The constitution secures individual rights, which are fundamental to democracy, but it also assures the exercise of criminal law," said Chief Justice Carmen Lucia, who cast the deciding vote after spending much of the session being criticized by colleagues.
Justice Gilmar Mendes, traditionally a critic of da Silva, voted in favor of the former leader's petition to stay out of jail, challenging his colleagues to buck pressure from society.
"If a court bows (to pressure), it might as well not exist," said Mendes.
Justice Luis Roberto Barroso argued that the integrity of the justice system was at stake.
"A penal system that doesn't work with minimal effectiveness leads to an instinct for taking justice into one's own hands," said Barroso, who voted against the petition.
Justice Rosa Weber, who legal analysts predicted would be key because there was much doubt about her position on the matter, voted against da Silva.
In one of several brisk exchanges, after Weber's vote, justice Marco Aurelio Mello accused Lucia of plotting against da Silva's case. Mello said limiting the vote just to the habeas corpus petition and not the larger question of when a convict should be forced to begin serving a sentence helped sway Weber's vote.
"I want this to be registered in the court's records," Mello told Lucia, who responded by saying "yes" to the request.
The session reflected the debate happening across Brazil as millions tuned into the televised session. When the decision was leveled, fireworks and yells could be heard and seen in Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo, two of the nation's most important cities.
Da Silva was once wildly popular after his two terms as president from 2003 to 2010, but he has become a polarizing figure amid the "Car Wash" corruption scandal that has roiled Brazil the last several years and made average citizens furious with the political class.
Da Silva was convicted in July of helping a construction company get sweetheart contracts in exchange for the promise of a beachfront apartment. He denies any wrongdoing in that case or in several other corruption cases that have yet to be tried. An appeals court upheld the conviction in January, and the three reviewing magistrates even lengthened the sentence to 12 years and one month.
Technically, the Supreme Federal Tribunal's decision doesn't keep da Silva off the ballot. The country's top electoral court makes final decisions about candidacies beginning in August, but it has been expected to deny da Silva's candidacy under Brazil's "clean slate" law, which disqualifies people who have had criminal convictions upheld.
Thursday's decision was about much more than the future of a once towering politician trying to make a comeback. Many legal observers had said that allowing da Silva to stay out of jail could have a big impact on all the other cases related to "Car Wash" and other white-collar criminals with the means to continue appealing.
Congressman Jair Bolsonaro, a right-leaning legislator who is running second in the polls behind da Silva, summed up what many da Silva detractors were likely thinking.
"Brazil hopes that after today's vote Sergio Moro is able to order his arrest to show corruption doesn't work," Bolsonaro said while demonstrating outside Congress in Brasilia during the session. "We should never do politics like this again. Crooks should not have votes. They should have a cell."

Q: switching from French to Arabic in JTextFields I have a form which contains JTextFields, some are specific for French and others for Arabic.
i want to switch from a language to another without pressing alt+shift key.
any help on the solution will be appreciated. thanks,

A: Thanks aymeric for your answer, but i found a solution for the problem, here is how i resolve the problem:
public void Arabe(JTextField txt) {
    txt.getInputContext().selectInputMethod(new Locale("ar", "SA"));
    txt.setComponentOrientation(ComponentOrientation.RIGHT_TO_LEFT);
}

public void Français(JTextField txt) {
    txt.getInputContext().selectInputMethod(new Locale("fr","FR"));
    txt.setComponentOrientation(ComponentOrientation.LEFT_TO_RIGHT);
}

private void txt1_FocusGained(java.awt.event.FocusEvent evt) {
    Arabe(my_textfields1);
}

private void txt2_FocusGained(java.awt.event.FocusEvent evt) {
    Français(mytextfields2);
}

A: The way I understand the question is that you want some specific textfields to be in Arabic (from right to left + with arabic characters) and some other in French.
If your main concern is to avoid the user to press ALT+SHIT, just make your program do it for him :)
This is only a example to get you started (if you didn't find any solution yet):
public class Test {

    /**
     * This method will change the keyboard layout so that if the user has 2 languages
     * installed on his computer, it will switch between the 2
     * (tested with french and english)
     */
    private static void changeLang() {
        Robot robot;
        try {
            robot = new Robot();
            robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_SHIFT);
            robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_ALT);

            robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_SHIFT);
            robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_ALT);
        } catch (AWTException e1) {
            e1.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {

        JFrame f = new JFrame();

        JTextField arabicTextField = new JTextField();
        JTextField frenchTextField = new JTextField();

        f.add(frenchTextField, BorderLayout.NORTH);
        f.add(arabicTextField, BorderLayout.SOUTH);

        frenchTextField.addFocusListener(new FocusAdapter() {
            @Override
            public void focusGained(FocusEvent e) {
                changeLang();
            }
        });

        arabicTextField.addFocusListener(new FocusAdapter() {
            @Override
            public void focusGained(FocusEvent e) {
                changeLang();
            }
        });

        arabicTextField.setComponentOrientation(ComponentOrientation.RIGHT_TO_LEFT);

        f.pack();
        f.setVisible(true);
        f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    }
}

It is now spring, so I thought I would share this cute little bambi video, which appears to show umm, a deer using a cat flap to enter a house. Bizarre indeed!
The original text seems to indicate "This curious deer obviously wanted to see the inside of a house".
Is the deer a pet? It looks like it was somehow enticed into the house? Or has just got itself confused after watching the cat?


Discussion in 'PowerPC Macs' started by LarsG5, Sep 5, 2016.
First of all, I know there's already been around 10 threads about flashing an FX4500 for G5, but none of them is actually helpful for me.
I've got some issues I'd like you to help me, please.
Is it flashable? If so, which rom should I use, as I've got at least four of them from this forum and Mac elite?
Should it be FX4500 or GTX7800 rom?
And finally, could anyone tell me exactly how to flash it? I've seen some tutorials about it on youtube, but idk if they will work with mac roms as well.
I simply wasn't sure about my card, since there are two types of them with roms on the back side.

Even though it's not something new, the MapReduce concept was purely theoretical to me before I got to Zalando. I did read the paper more than once and I had a pretty good idea when to use this kind of approach. My buddy Carsten found a very cool recipe for that quick 5min data analysis, but when you have really huge datasets and not that much time, MapReduce is there to the rescue.
The main use case for MapReduce is when the huge amount of data can be processed in parallel. You're probably asking... what kind of data is well suited to be processed in parallel?
This is exactly what I want to share with you. I've been working with Be Buckingham Avert On Spent To Catastrophe Millions Palace AxS7gq frequently so I decided to share my experience. Hopefully I'll help you get a clearer overview of what it's all about, just like I would explain to my non-geek friends.
So, what kind of data could we have at Zalando that should be processed in parallel with Hadoop? We are generating a huge amount of log files every day that hold valuable business metrics. For the sake of simplicity I'll create a very simple scenario, which I believe, makes it easier to understand how it works. Keep in mind the example is based on fake data and the purpose is not the better way to achieve the goal but just to demonstrate a comprehensive scenario.
Let's also assume our data is based on this list of countries and that, for each country, we have two attributes - the region it belongs to and the amount of purchases for a given day.
boston late accent nbc www Https night video meyers com with seth This is some sample data where you can see the region and daily purchases for each country. What we want to find out is the total amount of purchases for each region. This is the interesting point where we should realize that since we can group the countries by region, without caring about countries from other regions, it is the perfect scenario to work the data in parallel. The first step to get the total amount of purchases for each region is to group the amount of purchases by region and then calculate the sum for each group.
2 Smartphone Gaming Evo Controller Gamepad Android Pro Review x6EI48 We only care about the sum for each region so the data about the country name can be discarded. We'll only have the region and the amount of purchases for each country.
Then we're able to join all those values for the same region. The result will be a list of purchase amounts for each region.
Really, it's that simple. And all of this would have worked in parallel, with huge amounts of data.
Now let's try to establish a relation between all of this to their respective MapReduce operations. As you have probably noticed, there are 3 stages during a MapReduce operation: Map, Shuffle and Reduce.
We had an input map with the country as a key and the tuple with region and the amount of purchases as the value – Https video boston seth nbc night meyers www accent com with late Map. If you remember correctly we threw away the country name, as we wanted to group the amount of purchases by region. From that step we got an output map with a new key (the region) holding the amount of purchases (the value) – Map. This is what the Map part does. It creates a new map with only the data that can be grouped, and is actually relevant for us.
The shuffling takes this output and groups all the Purchases for the same Region. We got a new map with the Region as the key and a list of Purchases as the value – Map>. MapReduce does this step automatically so you don't have to worry about it.
This new map from the Shuffle stage is the input for the last step – the Reduce stage. As you probably figured out by now, all we had to do was to sum all the Purchases on those lists. The output was another map with the Region as the key and the sum of Purchases as the value – late night nbc com Https with accent meyers seth video boston www Map.
That's all there is to it. MapReduce makes all this pretty easy. Using Hadoop you usually only have to override the Mapper's map() method and the Reducer's reduce() method and adjust to your specific needs. You could, for example, just change the reduce() method to calculate an average instead of a sum. Everything else would stay the same.
The wonderful part about it is that everything is distributed across all the nodes in your cluster, making it possible to perform this kind of calculation really fast, and easy, with a real huge dataset.

From the writings of Homer to the early modern period, what society considers to be "heroic" has been characterized in European literature in the form of carmen heroicum epos. This project examines the burgeoning, but often neglected, tradition of Latin epos in the early modern period by analyzing the epic portrayal of Maximilian I, Holy Roman Emperor (1459-1519).
This example lends itself to study for various reasons: Maximilian was not only an extraordinary figure of European history; he was also the focus of the discourse about heroes during his time. We only need to remember his collection of Middle High German epics in his Ambras Book of Heroes or his self-dramatization as a knightly hero in Theuerdank. Part of the larger discourse about heroes originates from the literary epics in Maximilian's courtly milieu: for instance, R. Sbrulio adapted Theuerdank into Latin hexameter, G. S. Emiliano "Cimbriacus" wrote of Maximilian's youth and early reign in Enconmiastica and R. Bartolini recounted the emperor's role in the War of the Succession of Landshut in Austrias. Outside his court, parties that were hostile to Maximilian also penned epic texts such as S. Lemnius's Raeteis, the modern Swiss national epic, as well as a number of short French epics. Because a few of the texts that are analyzed in this project also served as models for later epics north of the Alps, Maximilian can also be seen as model for epic heroes in general.
The texts selected for this project will be analyzed in various ways: as elements of an epic tradition that stretches back to antiquity, in the context of a political and literary propaganda war, and as a template for the heroization (and demonization) of a ruler. As a part of his dissertation project, Dennis Pulina is writing about the epic discourse surrounding Maximilian, while contextualizing his depiction with regard to a changing heroic model (such as those in tales about knights) and contemporary political ideologies. He also explores how heroism is constructed through epic narrative. Beyond this central theme, this project additionally analyzes the later reception of the Maximilian epics (for example in a number of further Austrias epics). Finally, a conference will be organized that will be devoted to the topic of the heroization of Maximilian in the literature and art of his time.

Ida Johanne Hesbeck (2. september 1873 i Varde – 25. marts 1927 i Holte) var en dansk fotograf.

Hun var datter af købmand Christoffer Johannes Hesbeck og Ida Theodora Elisabeth, født Nyegaard. Johanne Hesbecks far døde blot 35 år gammel, og hendes mor drev forretningen videre. Moderen giftede sig atter, men blev enke for anden gang.

Hesbeck har formentlig tidligt fattet interesse for fotografering, og det lykkedes hende at komme i lære hos tidens mest efterspurgte og innovative fotograf, kgl. hoffotograf Peter Elfelt. Her var hun ansat fra 13. maj 1905 til 1. september 1914. Der er ikke mange oplysninger at hente i Peter Elfelts arkiv, der opbevares på Det Kongelige Bibliotek ud over, at hendes navn optræder i Elfelts lommebog på listen over personer, der modtog et årligt julekort.

Efter udstået læretid flyttede Johanne Hesbeck flyttede i april 1915 til Holte i Søllerød Sognekommune, hvor hun boede til leje i ejendommen Esthersvej 4 (nu: Rønnebærvej 6), der var ejet af tømrermester Hemming Petersen. Senere købte hun selv huset, hvor hun slog dørene op for sit atelier. Hun tilbød primært portrætfotografering. Det viste sig at være en god lokalitet, for i de år voksede forstaden Ny Holte, og nye villaer skød op. Hun fik en solid kundekreds og leverede desuden i begrænset omfang fotos til Søllerød Tidende.

Hesbeck døde allerede 1927, kun 55 år gammel. Fotografen Ella Bach videreførte Hesbecks ateliervirksomhed helt frem til slutningen af 1970'erne. I 1980'erne blev Hesbecks gamle villa og atelier revet ned for at give plads til en parkeringsplads til Holte Midtpunkt.

Bach tog også vare på Hesbecks samling af glaspladenegativer, der nu findes på Rudersdal Museer. Samlingen omfatter ca. 4.000 glasplader i størrelsen 12 x 8 cm (visit) samt ca. 400 glaspladenegativer i størrelsen 16,5 x 12 (kabinet) optaget i perioden 1915-1927. Dertil skal lægges ca. 300 glaspladenegativer stereoskopfotos i varierende størrelser formodentlig optaget fra omkring 1895-1915.

Liberté pour ľhistoire - or towards an EU-Dienst-academia?
My brief contribution to the Forum Historiae, to which I was kindly invited by my friend Gabriela Dudeková, SAV History, Bratislava, should be understood as a reverie or perhaps an essay in the European tradition of Montaigne. I do not claim to be an expert on EU legislation or higher education policy.
My brief reflections, that is the liberty I take to freely express my concerns, do not claim to present a concise analysis of the cluster of potential problems for historical research the wise initiators of the Appel de Blois have pointed out. As a supporter of liberty in society and above all, academic research in all fields, and this includes seemingly uninteresting research about e.g. the width of Inuit slides in 19th Century Greenland, I would just like to present a few modest thoughts about the rightful concerns of the initiators of the Liberté pour l'histoire. My reflections are influenced by personal experience: first, as a historian of ideas I specialise in the 19th century political thought of the Slavic nations. While most of my colleagues do not contest that there is such a thing as Russian philosophy and Russian political thought, many still believe that there is no political thought in the Central European states because of the Cold War divide. "Czech and Slovak political thought? That does not exist"! they argue, and they should really know it better. Just because they themselves know nothing about a distinct topic does not mean that the topic does not exist. Second, the recent student protests against the Bologna system call for thinking about the increasing technologisation and economisation of higher education. In November, students all over Europe briefly occupied the main auditoriums of their universities to protest against the Bologna system. Some of their demands addressed the following issues: Sponsorship should not dictate the contents of the curricula; studies would deteriorate to a chase for ECTS points; student fees should be cancelled and access to higher education, on the whole, should be free to everybody. I share some of the students' concerns, which I think, have their origins in the perception that they have, because of the Bologna system, lost something valuable: a few years of freely reflecting, studying, finding their own personal identity and, as my esteemed colleague Ursula Pia Jauch put it, 'they feel instinctively betrayed'. University policy is always a difficult path between autonomy and functionality; the masses that enroll require assistance by technology to ensure that each student can enjoy fair and equal treatment. On the other hand, I find it difficult to support the idea that one should get a university degree without actually attending classes or paying zero fees. But utopian ideas are a privilege of youth and student protests a European tradition.
In May 2009, the Central European states celebrated five years of EU membership, with Bulgaria and Romania celebrating two years. After German reunification in 1990, the East Germans automatically became EU citizens. Following the successful democratic revolutions of 1989, all post-communist states in Central Europe declared membership in Euro-Atlantic institutions such as NATO and the EU to be their principal political and economic goals, the memories of Soviet-type socialism still being fresh. Yet, how do 'younger' and 'older' European states deal with EU institutions, laws and regulations now, twenty years after the revolutions and two and five years, respectively, after achieving membership? How do they deal with their past under "dem real existent gewesenen Sozialismus (the reality of socialism)" as the distinguished philosopher Hermann Lübbe put it when referring to the SED state? How do societies perceive the EU and, above all, how does EU membership and legislation affect those societies' efforts to come to terms with the past?
German reunification and Central European states becoming members of the EU brought to a close a historic and disturbing chapter for the majority of citizens. The period between 1945 and 1989, as well as the war years, were seen in a different light. Opinions and perspectives that could not be voiced in public while Europe was separated by a Cold War of competing ideologies were now being openly expressed. Literary works reflecting on these times are central points of reference. In Western Germany, the author Martin Walser started a debate about forgetting in 1990. It was no coincidence that, around the same time, the lectures of W.G. Sebald on literature and the war in the air took the thinking and pain of the perpetrators as their theme. This was a new topic that had not been a public issue before 1992. Previously unpublished works of the post-war period emerged, such as Heinrich Böll's "The Silent Angel". The fall of the Berlin Wall created a new reality one had to adapt to, partly in an anxious, partly in a bold-spirited way. Jeremy Rifkin expresses a distinct euphoria in his "The European Dream: How Europe's vision of the future is quietly eclipsing the American dream", published in 2004. Hans Magnus Enzensberger, by contrast, can hardly meet any response to that enthusiasm in his book "Ach Europa!". Jürgen Habermas is even more cautious in his reflexions entitled "Ach, Europa": he questions not only Rifkin's quiet eclipse of the American dream, but refers to a silent scepticism about a united Europe and its relation to power. Lastly, power issues dividing the 'older' from the 'younger' members and stemming from Cold War thinking and ideas of Western superiority were made perfectly clear by French president Jacques Chirac, who reprimanded the Polish government in December 2005, declaring that "they have missed a good opportunity to shut up." France led the European opposition to the war in Iraq, while the Polish government supported the U.S. How do the 'younger' members deal with the claim for superiority of the 'older'?
In the "other Europe" (Jacques Rupnik), the communist regimes had continuously and tiresomely reminded its population of the victory over the Nazi regime, which legitimated communism in an ethical-political fashion. The ideology of Marxism-Leninism evoked a notable degree of motivation in the years following the end of the war. Yet, with the collapse of communism, many dissident authors lost their inspiration: the regimes they wrote against had vanished literally overnight to be replaced by a new and rapidly changing social and political environment. Soon, however, a new object of criticism emerged: democratisation and its goal of membership in the Euro-Atlantic institutions. Uncontrolled, inhuman capitalism, loneliness and social decline, as well as the perceived loss of the recently achieved sovereignty from EU legislators, became the new focuses of criticism. Coming to terms with the years during and after World War II presented an arena of vehement debate, as the socialist regimes had blocked any interpretation of the past that did not fit their own. Examples here are the debate about the Beneš decrees, as well as the Jedwabne debate initiated by the American-Polish sociologist Jan Tomas Gross. The expulsion of the Germans from Central Europe and the Holocaust are still contested topics.
Indeed, it seems that a kind of new European consciousness is emerging, which is eager to keep pace with globalisation and is now being challenged by the financial crisis the economies of the 'mature' democracies have created. Or could it be possible that EU administrators and politicians actually are trying to construct such an EU consciousness?
· How do the 'younger' EU states feel about a financial crisis they have to suffer at no fault of their own? How will their relationships to the established members, which are responsible for the crisis, change?
· Are the concepts of capitalism and market economy, the principal goals of the post-communist states after 1989, now changing, in view of the current financial crisis? Is there a third way?
· Politics as a place of remembering: differences, parallels, and dialectics of forgetting in Europe since 2007, 2004 and 1989 respectively? Does the past play a role in current EU discourse, e.g. the European Council, the European Court of Justice? What are the grounds of nostalgia about the Eastern bloc?
· Specific political interests underlying the forgetting of certain events and remembering of others? Interest groups? Can we speak of an emerging EU ideology?
· Forgetting as possibility, as chance, as remedy, as theft of identity, as renewed violation or political dictate?
· Russia's guided democracy (upravlaemaia demokratsia): cultural or political opposition to the EU or Russia's own path toward democracy?
To legally define what citoyens – to speak with Rousseau – ought to remember – and if they don't one can put a lawsuit on them – will result, at the end of the day, in state paternalism which is just a step away from the fully blown totalitarian state Europeans shook off in 1989. Administrators and politicians, who are no trained historians, will prescribe not only what memory is, but also the contents of our research. This will affect research budgets; only topics and issues that are of immediate interest and benefit to the ruling government will receive funding. Everything else will become l'art pour l'art, an intellectual luxury the state cannot afford. Politicians will tell the populace what it is allowed to remember and, equally important, what not. I fully understand and support the considerations of the German post war government that made the Auschwitz denial a legal offense in Germany. The Holocaust has been and still is being researched by international scholars and the Nuremberg trials have established the facts. But issuing laws, in the best intention of fostering and protecting humanity and condemning crimes against humanity, without the back up of historical commissions, is certainly a step in the wrong direction. By leaving out the experts, politicians will begin to implement their own perceptions and conceptions of what is good for society and what is not. There are, of course, universal moral values every person capable of thinking shares, such as equality, pluralism, the right to emigrate etc. Racism, fascism, sexism and totalitarianism are mostly things of the past, exactly because historians have researched, analysed and described them. One would not leave the management of a nuclear power plant to a five year old child – why then do politicians believe they are entitled to issue laws about memory without historians' expert opinion? I therefore fully endorse the option mechanism suggested by the members of the Appel de Blois: No law about war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocides without an international tribunal.
Laws that condemn crimes against humanity, war crimes and genocides seem to express humanity; they make one feel nice and, above all, they certainly fit into the category of 'political correctness'. But historical research is not about being nice or politically correct; research in our understanding of analysis, facts and scholarly objectivity is about coming as close to the truth as possible – whether one likes the results or not. Is this 'political correctness' not an attempt to establish a binding system of values that is believed to function as a social glue overcoming the various identities a global society is characterized by these days? A nice intention that is born out of the wish to make society better, according to the values of individuality, pluralism, equality of citizens and respect for difference. Yet, while every society needs a certain amount of normative rules that determine how one should treat ones' co-citizens, I do not think that academic research requires such a dictate of being nice. On the contrary, historical research should enjoy full liberty, as limitations of that liberty will strike back like a boomerang: once one important sector of society is being told what to do and think, all others are not safe anymore. If we historians allow politicians and administrators to establish what memory is and what it is not, we have begun to turn into an EU Dienst academia, an academia that is in the service of the state, at its beck and call. Then, the way toward a EU ideology is free.
Once such an ideology is in effect, our hitherto free, pluralist and tolerant societies will begin to have an increasingly mistaken perception of their own: Identity is being constructed in the absence of historical facts and research. I can vividly remember how parts of the Swiss nation rejected the historical facts the Bergier commission had established in ten years of careful research. Nobody likes to think of oneself as having committed bad things. But again, history is not about being nice, but about detail, descriptions, the careful and balanced handling of facts, objectivity and, above all, looking to the past to learn from one's mistakes. Only liberty will grant future liberty and liberty in historical research will be the best guarantee for a free society.
