Q: Topology in an underlying set of $X.$
Let $X$ be a topological space and let $S$ be a subset $X$ fixed. Show that
$$\tau= \{A \cup (B \cap S) \mid A,B \text{ open at } X  \}$$
determines another topology on the underlying subset of $X.$

My attempt
Using that $A \cup (B \cap S)= (A\cup B) \cap (A \cup S)$
where we see that the union and intersection of subsets of $\tau$ remains in $\tau$ and with it we see that it is a topology.
I am new to this, I would appreciate it if you could tell me if the test is correct or failing, because you would give me some hint to learn topology.
Thank you.

A: To show that $\tau$ is a topology on $X$, you must show three things: $\varnothing,X\in\tau$; for any $U,V\in\tau$, $U\cap V\in\tau$ ($\tau$ is closed under intersection); and for any $\mathscr{U}\subseteq\tau$, $\bigcup\mathscr{U}\in\tau$ ($\tau$ is closed under taking arbitrary unions).
Let $\tau_0$ be the original topology on $X$. Then by definition
$$\tau=\{G\cup(H\cap S):G,H\in\tau_0\}\;.$$
Since $\tau_0$ is a topology on $X$, we know that $\varnothing\in\tau_0$, so for each $U\in\tau_0$ we know that
$$U\cup(\varnothing\cap S)=U\cup\varnothing=U\in\tau\;;$$
this shows that $\tau_0\subseteq\tau$ and hence that $\varnothing,X\in\tau$ (since $\varnothing,X\in\tau_0$).
Now let $U,V\in\tau$; there are $G_U,H_U,G_V,H_V\in\tau_0$ such that $U=G_U\cup(H_U\cap S)$ and $V=G_V\cup(H_V\cap S)$. Thus,
$$\begin{align*}
U\cap V&=\big(G_U\cup(H_U\cap S)\big)\cap\big(G_V\cup(H_V\cap S)\big)\\
&=\Big(G_U\cap\big(G_V\cup(H_V\cap S)\big)\Big)\cup\Big((H_U\cap S)\cap\big(G_V\cup(H_V\cap S)\big)\Big)\\
&=(G_U\cap G_V)\cup(G_U\cap H_V\cap S)\cup(H_U\cap S\cap G_V)\cup(H_U\cap S\cap H_V\cap S)\\
&=(G_U\cap G_V)\cup(G_U\cap H_V\cap S)\cup(G_V\cap H_U\cap S)\cup(H_U\cap H_V\cap S)\\
&=(G_U\cap G_V)\cup\Big(\big((G_U\cap H_V)\cup(G_V\cap H_U)\cup(H_U\cap H_V)\big)\cap S\Big)\\
&=G\cup(H\cap S)\;,
\end{align*}$$
where $G=G_U\cap G_V$ and $H=(G_U\cap H_V)\cup(G_V\cap H_U)\cup(H_U\cap H_V)$. Both $G$ and $H$ are open in $\tau_0$, the original topology, so by $G\cup(H\cap S)\in\tau$, i.e., $U\cap V\in\tau$, and $\tau$ is therefore closed under intersection.
Finally, let $\mathscr{U}\subseteq\tau$. For each $U\in\mathscr{U}$ there are $G_U,H_U\in\tau_0$ such that $U=G_U\cup(H_U\cap S)$. Now
$$\begin{align*}
\bigcup\mathscr{U}&=\bigcup_{U\in\mathscr{U}}\big(G_U\cup(H_U\cap S)\big)\\
&=\bigcup_{U\in\mathscr{U}}G_U\cup\bigcup_{U\in\mathscr{U}}(H_U\cap S)\\
&=\bigcup_{U\in\mathscr{U}}G_U\cup\left(\left(\bigcup_{U\in\mathscr{U}}H_U\right)\cap S\right)\\
&=G\cup(H\cap S)\;,
\end{align*}$$
where
$$G=\bigcup_{U\in\mathscr{U}}G_H\quad\text{and}\quad H=\bigcup_{U\in\mathscr{U}}H_U\;.$$
Being a topology, $\tau_0$ is closed under arbitrary unions, so $G,H\in\tau_0$, and therefore by definition $\bigcup\mathscr{U}\in\tau$, which is therefore also closed under arbitrary unions.
This completes the proof that $\tau$ is a topology on $X$. It is the smallest topology that contains both the original topology $\tau_0$ and the set $S$; that is, $\tau_0\cup\{S\}$ is a base for $\tau$. (To see that $S\in\tau$, just observe that $S=\varnothing\cup(X\cap S)$, where $\varnothing,X\in\tau_0$.)

I'm using BRMS to do a *SAVSYS. The problem is it takes to long so I "kill" it -- I use the BRMS Console. If I use a standard SAVSYS from a straight forward save, it takes about 10 minutes only. After I stop the BRMS save, I check the tape and all the saves are on there. Any idea what is going on?
There is some additional overhead associated with a BRMS save. However, the only scenario I can think of that would add a lot of time your SAVSYS would be if you have a system with multiple Auxiliary Storage Pools. In this kind of configuration BRMS has a default option to save authority for every object in each user ASP. If you have a lot of ASP's with a lot of objects, this can take considerable time. There is a way around this though. You can tell BRMS NOT to save authority data for users ASP's.
From the Backup Policy Menu, take Option 2. Work with items to omit from backup.

Every year my Mother takes my sister and I to a different state over the 4th of July. Alaska is a very special trip because this was my mother's 50th state. Along with visiting Alaska she wished to see a bull moose in the wild. After leaving Chena Hot Springs on a rainy July day in Fairbanks, we were driving down the road secretly hoping to see Alaska wildlife come out of the dense trees. I got my camera out just in time to capture this beautiful peaceful moment. It took our breath away and was a moment we will never forget. Thank you, Alaska!

Malaysia's passenger service charge reduction draws opposing views
The Malaysian government will reduce the passenger service charge (PSC) for international flights from RM73 (US$17) to RM50 at all airports in Malaysia, except Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA), from October 1.
Matta president Datuk Tan Kok Liang
Transport minister Anthony Loke said the move was meant to reduce the tax burden of travellers, in light of the departure tax introduced on September 1.
He added that the PSC rates for other sectors at all the airports will remain the same – RM35 for flights in South-east Asia and RM11 for domestic flights.
AirAsia's group CEO Tony Fernandes called the government's decision "a big win" for Malaysians and the country's tourism industry, according to a report by The Star.
But Conrad Clifford, IATA's regional vice president for Asia-Pacific, was quoted in the same report as saying that the government had created an uneven playing field for airlines, as well as cross-subsidisation of other airports or terminals by KLIA users.
"While the reduction in the PSC for destinations beyond ASEAN is positive for most travellers in Malaysia, we are disappointed the government has chosen to discriminate against the airlines and 28 million passengers using KLIA," he said, adding that if the goal is to offset the departure levy introduced on September 1, a more straightforward solution would be to remove the departure levy altogether.
The Malaysian Association of Tour and Travel Agents (MATTA) refuted the IATA statement that airlines and passengers using KLIA were losing out to other Malaysian airports with lower PSC rates.
MATTA's president Tan Kok Liang said: "Other international airports in Langkawi, Penang, Senai, Kuching and Kota Kinabalu cannot match KLIA's standard. It would be unfair for passengers to pay KLIA rates when using other airports with lesser facilities.
"There is no discrimination as airlines can choose to operate from any airport or terminal in line with their premium or budget service, and likewise, passengers get to enjoy the same options. It is only fair for airlines and passengers to pay more for using KLIA and lesser at klia2, which was designed and built as a LCC terminal, and even more so for other international airports in the country," he added.
"The Transport Ministry ought to be congratulated for currently working on a framework to impose different rates for different airports according to their infrastructure. MATTA fully supports the decision to reduce PSC as facilities at these airports are of no match to KLIA standard, which is our premium airport".

Top Five Sister Horror Movies
I'm lucky enough to have two sisters, and the relationships I have with them are some of the most important in my life. Because we have so much shared history and are close in age, I don't think there's anybody who knows me better, maybe even better than I know myself. But at the same time, there's a lot of competition and rivalry between sisters that just makes me want to snarl sometimes. That's why sister horror movies are some of my favorites in the genre. When you have sister characters, there's natural, built-in conflict. You know there's nobody who would have your back more but who you might want to drop-kick a minute later. As of right now, here are some of favorite sister horror movies.
1. Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?
Whatever Happened to Baby Jane? is my top sister horror film. Two aging, reclusive sisters have a battle of wills that has been years in the making. Blanche, the older sister, has respect and good will as a silver screen star, who was cut down in her prime in an automobile accident that was believed to have been caused by her younger sister Jane. She's been in a wheelchair ever since then with Jane taking care of her. Jane had a successful career in her youth as a vaudeville performer who went by the name Baby Jane. She supported her family during these early years, but when she grew up, her talent did not. She's been riding Blanche's coattails ever since, a position that she resents. Now, Jane is a blowsy drunk out of touch with reality, who decides to stage a career comeback by reviving her stage persona Baby Jane, complete with floppy hair bow and ruffled pinafore. Bette Davis pulls out all the stops in this performance, and I love her bravery in bringing such an ugly caricature to life. What I also like in this movie is that each of the sisters had a position of power at some time in their sibling relationship, and then the positions were flip-flopped. Typically in a sister story, one sister is more dominant than the other—more beautiful, more talented, more something—but in reality, I've found that these positions switch all the time. Bette Davis and Joan Crawford, the two actresses playing Baby Jane and Blanche, hated each other, and this really comes through in the scenes where they fight, making for good, dishy fun. Since we have a wheelchair at our disposal, my sister Kristi and I have threatened for years to be Baby Jane and Blanche for Halloween. I'd be Baby Jane.
2. Night of the Comet
This eighties gem came out when Halley's Comet could be seen from Earth, and people were getting a little pre-millennial. Sisters Regina and Samantha end up staying the night in protected spaces while everybody else has comet parties, and they remain human as a result. The rest of the population has either turned into red dust or zombies. Thankfully, the Belmont sisters had a father in the military, who taught them how to fight and use guns, so they're able to protect themselves and other stragglers that they come across. There's some sibling rivalry when older sister Regina has chemistry with what appears to be the last guy left on earth, but Regina and Samantha have sister-bonding moments, too. Night of the Comet is B-movie horror in the same vein as Evil Dead II. It's goofy and a real time capsule of eighties fashion, reveling in neon and pastel colors, asymmetrical collars, and big, glorious hair.
3. An American Crime
An American Crime is a devastating movie based on a true story, and it will haunt you for days. It's billed as a drama, but trust me, it's horror. Sylvia Likens and her younger sister Jenny are the children of carnival workers who travel around a lot. When their mother and father get ready to go on the circuit again, the father decides to board his daughters with Gertrude Baniszewski, mother of their new friends, for $20 a week. When the second week's payment doesn't show up, Gertrude whips Sylvia and Jenny. Sylvia asks to take most of Jenny's punishment when her sister falls because of the brace on her leg, and after that, Sylvia becomes the focus of Gertrude's abuse, sparing Jenny. But it doesn't stop with that. Gertrude enlists the help of her own children in the torture of Sylvia, so there are sisters beating on sisters. Catherine Keener gives an incredible performance as Gertrude Baniszewski, and there is such nuance to it that you can see the glimmers of how abuse originates, the cycle that goes on in perpetuity if left unchecked.
4. Ginger Snaps
Ginger Snaps showcases the Fitzgerald sisters, Ginger and Brigette, who are so close in age that they're in the same grade in high school. Ginger is slightly older, and these two sisters of the weird, whose shared passion is death photography, have a pact to be together forever—in life or death. Ginger and Brigette are late bloomers—hard to believe, but it's a movie and some suspension of disbelief is necessary. They sneak out, and Ginger is bitten by something wolflike that claws open her chest. Brigette gets her home, and they find that the wound is magically healing. At the same time, Ginger experiences her first period. Following this are some comical body horror moments as Ginger deals with tampon shopping, extreme body hair, and a torrential flow. With this flood of hormones and magic, Ginger also becomes extremely sexual and starts experimenting with boys. The two are pulling apart and bickering, but Brigette is determined to save her older sister from becoming a werewolf. Mimi Rogers appears as the girls' mother, and I feel like her role could have been so much more. She plays a square mother in hair scrunchies and sparkly sweaters trying to usher her utterly strange daughters through adolescence. She's daffy but willing to do anything to help her girls. I think a great sequel would include the mother, but so far the two movies following Ginger Snaps have focused on one or both of the sisters.
5. A Tale of Two Sisters
A Tale of Two Sisters is a moody, atmospheric Korean horror movie that takes a couple of viewings before all of the puzzle pieces come together. But I like it because the movie takes American horror clichés and stands them on end, creating even more scares because they don't play out the way they're supposed to. In A Tale of Two Sisters, older sister Soo-mi, the dominant one, and Soo-yeon, the younger, dowdier sister, accompany their father and new stepmother out to their country house. The father seems disinterested in the girls' situation, and they end up involved in great conflict with their crazy-acting stepmother. The scenes are bizarre and nonlinear, but they do come together in the end, and the mystery is eventually resolved. It's a different kind of movie, but it will keep you thinking for days about the complex bond that sisters share and what happens when somebody tries to break that.
Are there any other sister horror movies that deserve to be on this list? Let me know if you can think of any, because I'm always looking for more.

Q: Does it make sense to directly use a business object's DependencyProperty's in the model? With the following business object:
public class ItemsRow : BusinessObject<ItemsRow>
{
    public static readonly DependencyProperty ItemIdProperty = DependencyProperty.Register("ItemId", typeof(int), typeof(ItemsRow));
    public static readonly DependencyProperty DescriptionProperty = DependencyProperty.Register("Description", typeof(string), typeof(ItemsRow));

    public int ItemId
    {
        get { return (int)this.GetValue(ItemIdProperty); }
        set { this.SetValue(ItemIdProperty, value); }
    }

    public string Description
    {
        get { return (string)this.GetValue(DescriptionProperty); }
        set { this.SetValue(DescriptionProperty, value); }
    }
}

How would you go about exposing the properties in a model, seeing as how the properties are already DependencyProperty's?
I was wondering if it would make any sense to do this:
public class ItemModel: DependencyObject
{
    Item _item;

    public ItemModel(Item item)
    {
        _item = item;
    }

    public static readonly DependencyProperty DescriptionProperty = Item.DescriptionProperty;

    public string Description
    {
        get { return _item.Description; }
        set { _item.Description = value; }
    }
}

Would that work as intended or would the model necessarily have to have its own set of DependencyProperty's that are backed by the business object's DependencyProperty's?  Or could this be modified slightly to work correctly?

A: That won't work because the dependency property registration needs to know on which type the property is being defined; that's why you pass the third argument to the register method. So far that reason alone, it won't work properly. But from a theoretical MVVM design stand point, having a separate object in your model that closely resembles your business object is a trade-off that you chose to have another layer of abstraction. You are essentially buying the redundancy to allow yourself to have another layer of abstraction allowing you to swap the business object without changing your model. However, if you make your model object dependent on specifics of your business object implementation, you are defeating that purpose. In that case, I would just directly use the "business object" as your model object.

Bechyně je železniční stanice ve východní části města Bechyně v okrese Tábor v Jihočeském kraji nedaleko řeky Lužnice. Leží na jednokolejné elektrizkované trati 202 (1500 V DC). Ve městě se dále poblíž původního nádraží nachází železniční zastávka Bechyně zastávka.

Historie
Původní železniční stanici, která se nacházela na opačném břehu řeky od centra města, vybudovala soukromá společnost Družstvo bechyňské dráhy v rámci výstavby tratě z Tábora, přes který od roku 1871 procházela trať společnosti Dráha císaře Františka Josefa (KFJB) na trase nově budovaného spojení Vídně a Prahy. Nádraží v Bechyni vzniklo jako koncová stanice, dle typizovaného stavebního vzoru. Elektrizovaná dráha se stala první svého druhu v Rakousku-Uhersku a ve střední Evropě vůbec, na jejím budování se významnou měrou podílel podnikatel a vynálezce František Křižík.

Roku 1928 byla po nově otevřeném bechyňském mostu železnice zprovozněna až do města, čímž se délka trati prodloužila z 23 na 24 kilometrů. Zpočátku se do Bechyně jezdilo přes staré nádraží úvraťově, ale od 15. května 1929 byl zprovozněn oblouk pro nový směr a část tratě ke starému nádraží byla změněna na vlečku, napojenou na vlastní trať směrem k Bechyni, a staré nádraží bylo změněno v nákladiště dřeva.

Popis
Nachází se zde dvě nekrytá úrovňová nástupiště, která jsou přístupná pomocí úrovňových přechodů přes koleje. Ze stanice odbočují dvě vlečky do přilehlých průmyslových areálů (mimo provoz – stav k roku 2018).

Switch ASICs need to monitor buffer pointers and free lists at wire speed -- assuming the switch is wire speed. So information about buffer occupancy is in there somewhere. Packet buffers are used and released far too quickly to be managed by the system processor. The challenge is how to report it. An SNMP-style poll of a gauge that changes slowly like air inlet temperature works fine. But for something that can have important events that begin and end within 100 mS, polling cannot run fast enough.
One commonly adopted solution is water mark analysis. The switch is programmed with a threshold. When buffer occupancy exceeds the threshold (aka water mark) a report is generated. When the water goes back down, another report is generated. Or perhaps there are two thresholds to provide some hysteresis and avoid chattering when the water bumps above and below the mark at high speed.
Another approach is for the switch to stream buffer info directly to a collection system without a poll/response cycle. This is the same approach adopted by S-flow.
Cisco does it differently in their Nexus 3500. As the market leader, Cisco works to differentiate from the crowd of ankle biters that would help Cisco with their lunch. One way they do this is to sing the praises of custom ASICs, most recently in a blog. A lot has been written about this. It amounts to a rat race with ever increasing costs against merchant silicon competitors that show ever increasing capabilities. The link to Cisco's blog should not be read as an endorsement of its contents.
One of the areas where Cisco has applied custom technology is buffer queue monitoring. This has been covered here in the write up on the 3548. The particular approach used by Cisco requires tight integration between the switch ASIC and the control processor. The approach is not friendly to a disaggregated system where hardware and software meet at an API.
Arista with their lanz latency analyser program lead the way to commercial availability of buffer occupancy reports. Arista proudly proclaims that all their products run the same EOS switch software. If the implication is that they all have the same capabilities, well, not so much. The EOS software running on the control processor can only expose features that were placed in the switch silicon when it was manufactured. The stuff that Cisco [ Nexus 3548], Arista [7150S] and Broadcom [Trident-2 and later] put into their silicon are unlikely to be the same. Arista actually claims that LANZ buffer reporting is available on four switch systems: Intel FM6000, Broadcom Trident II, Broadcom Dune and Cavium Xpliant.
The original description of LANZ was written in 2013 when the FM6000 was the only switch silicon supporting granular buffer reporting.
This unique event driven model, allows congestion periods as short as a few 100ns to be detected and reported.
The report goes on to claim that the only limitation on latency measurement is that switch accounting is done by counting allocated 480 byte buffer blocks. The last block of each packet might be full or it might contain only a single byte. The uncertainty depends on the line speed; at 1 Gb/s it amounts to 4 uSec.
Arista has pointed out, a shared memory switch like the FM6000 based 7150S deals with buffers in a different way than a Broadcom DUNE switch that queues packets on its input ports.
What this says is that the switch system processor reads buffer stats from the switch chip every second. I was told on a trade show floor that the buffer state represents the peak value during the interval between reads and it is cleared after each read. Water mark events are detected at the system processor level and report generation follows. Peak latching will catch microbursts. It will not give detailed information about their shape. An that is probably OK.
Broadcom introduced Buffer Statistics Tracking (BST) in March 2015 about 2 years after the LANZ paper. The feature first appeared for the Trident-II and is available in subsequent XGS products (Trident-II+, Tomahawk) as well as the most recent Dune products (Jericho and Qumran). When equipment manufacturers use Broadcom ASICs, they use the BST feature set to access buffer data. There simply is no other way to get buffer data. BST is part of Broadview that includes other monitoring and debug features.
At announcement in June 2015, I was told that fine grain monitoring was in the silicon and accessible via the SDK. But Mellanox had not integrated access into their software. Fast forward to March 2017: "It took a while, but we're there now." And in a Cumulus webinar a week later, fine grain monitoring was demonstrated -- using Cumulus Linux. So, it is real. David Iles from Mellanox pointed out that Mellanox has histograms for buffer occupancy bins while Broadcom shows a single peak occupancy for each port in each measurement interval. Iles says that Mellanox is better than Broadcom.
This example was part of a webinar on March 14, 2017. It shows access to watermark data in a switch running cumulus linux. Here we are looking at the results of two simultaneous 10 second iperf tests that passed through this port. The high waternark values were cleared ahead of the run. The units are buffer particles. Particle size for Mellanox Spectrum ASICs is 96 bytes.

Women-headed households: diversity and dynamics in the developing world
Chant, Sylvia and Campling, Jo (1997) Women-headed households: diversity and dynamics in the developing world. Palgrave Macmillan, Houndmills, Basingstoke, UK. ISBN 9780312172428
Households headed by women are a growing presence worldwide. This is the first book to focus on their diversity and dynamics in developing countries. Set within the context of global trends and debates on female household headship, the analysis explores the reasons for the formation and increase in women-headed households in different parts of the world and their capacity for survival in societies where male-headed households are both the norm and ideal. Case-study material from urban and urbanising areas in Mexico, Costa Rica and the Philippines illustrates the varied routes by which low-income women enter household headship, and the outcomes for women and other household members at the grassroots. While personal experiences of female headship often differ between individuals and countries, women-headed households everywhere are exposed to discrimination and disadvantage. Vital measures to counteract this tendency include increased awareness and acceptance of multiple contemporary forms of household and family life. To this end, Chant calls for greater collaboration in analysis, policy and action for gender equality across the North-South divide.

The 'Tinder Poet' Might Be the Only Good Thing On the App
June 29, 2018 By Kate Mooney
Most people, upon hearing "Tinder Poet," will cringe, imagining some corny, deluded Lothario shilling stanzas for swipes. But there is a real life dude who goes by that moniker, and wouldn't you know, his profile might be the one bright spot on the app.
Scene: Before bed one night, I was reluctantly swiping — you know, out of habit, boredom, and that "oh, just in case!" mindset — when I matched with a certain Alexander, no age, "Tinder Poet" listed as profession. His bio read "hey, you've reached the tinder poet. Archive: https://tinderpoetcom.wordpress.com," followed by a poem of the day.
I was pleasantly surprised that the day's poem didn't suck, so I looked up his website and found myself scrolling through verses for maybe half an hour. Some are odes to ostensible Tinder matches, like "For Federico," which contains the lines, "I don't want to date you/and I won't/though your fourth pic is pretty hot/you should make it your first."
Others put forth New York-specific sensibilities, like the unnamed piece beginning "I am an imposter/in these nice clothes/shuttling through the air/on the old el train." There are reflections on past loves, "Hey I miss the way you say I'm sorry" and random musings about mortality, "when have you remembered that your birth was mysterious? That you came bloody, out of the womb, and managed, for decades, not to fall down the stairs?"
"For Brian" ends like the world's most whimsical fortune cookie, "you're going to be lit by a green light, notice someone's crooked elbow, ask them to dance," and elicited in me that corkscrew-to-the-gut sensation I associate with being moved by something.
This is good shit, I thought. And felt grateful to this unlikely troubadour for doing what a standard swiping session has never done for me: piqued my curiosity, stimulated my intellect, and made me feel actual emotions. Sure, the standards are low, but this was a welcome departure from that signature Tinder blend of malaise and revulsion.
I messaged Alexander asking if I could interview him about his project, and we set up a non-date at Project Parlor in Bed-Stuy, our shared neighborhood. I vaguely recalled spending evenings there drinking PBR with dirtbag "poets" during my MFA days, so it seemed an appropriate choice.
When I arrive, he's seated in a shabby sofa chair, talking on the phone, very official-like. We move out to the backyard, and he explains that Alexander is actually his pen name, and prefers I use that in the piece.
TP/Alexander is tall, brown-haired and bespectacled, a gentle giant who answers my questions in careful, measured responses. He's easy to talk to, and I immediately like him as a person, which is more than I can say for most Tinder dates.
This, however, is not a date. Alexander tells me he's in a relationship, insisting that his presence on the app is strictly in service of his poetry project, and, "although tempting," he never uses it for dates or hookups.
"I want to keep the integrity of it," he says. "I only respond to people who acknowledge me as the Tinder Poet. Otherwise, I just don't have the time."
The 30-year-old began the project in January of this year, after a work trip to LA where he found himself overbooked with Tinder dates every night of the week and finally burned out from dating app exhaustion. He wanted to do something more meaningful with the platform, providing matches with "something to look forward to."
"I want to be the only good thing on Tinder," he says, and then clarifies, "my real goal is to become the poet laureate of the United States, through Tinder poetry only."
Although he says he's been writing a poem a day since his junior year of high school, so far, it remains a labor of love. As his actual profession, he's a new music/concert composer (he rejects the term "classical," finding it limiting). He plays cello and guitar, and was formerly in a band called Polysonic Joy until they had a "dramatic falling out."
I ask if he would ever want to publish a book of his Tinder poems, and he shrugs. "It's inevitable. We live in a capitalist society."
He does have a more immediate vision for his alias off the app, though: a poetry reading where he'll invite everybody on Tinder and auction off a date with him, using the money to fund a guerrilla cover-up of all the subway poems.
"I'm really upset about the subway series," he explains, which amps me up because, second to the MTA's crumbling infrastructure and hellish scheduling problems, the outdated, mediocre poetry lining the subway cars draws my ire. We joke about how absurd it is that the mock poems in the PolicyGenius ads are inadvertently better than any of the actual subway poems.
But the egregiousness of the MTA can have a silver lining: it facilitated a meet-cute for Alexander and his girlfriend. They were both waiting for the bus in the Navy Yard; he, after a class in film scoring, at the Feirstein Graduate School of Cinema; she, after a shift at the Mast Brothers Chocolate Factory. The bus was taking forever to show up, so they started talking and immediately hit it off.
Transit delays aside, how does one actually make these real-life romantic encounters happen?
"Be bold," he says. "It's awkward to talk to strangers, but I feel like if you want to meet somebody in real life, the definition of meeting somebody is talking to a stranger." I tell him my vibe is probably not the best: always wearing headphones, resting bitch face, dodging catcalls.
"A big part of meeting people in real life is being open to it," he says, adding that if you're giving off a good vibe, "people will be attracted to you rather than you having to chase them."
Or, be the aggressor. One way? Swoop in on a bad Tinder date while one of them goes to the bathroom, he suggests. "Hey, is that a terrible date? Here's my number.
"Maybe that's your calling card. It's super obnoxious, but if that's you, that's you."
I think, I just might try it. I tell him he should write a dating column, "Ask the Tinder Poet."
He says he'd love to.
One Man's Crusade Against the 'Epidemic' of Fake MCs
December 7, 2017 By Mathew Silver
Keep your eyes peeled. A new poster, featuring rapper Big Daddy Kane, claims that "real MCs" are absent from the world of modern hip-hop. Zeps, a hip-hop artist turned children's book author from Brooklyn, is the guy who made the poster, and according to him, there's a new trend to blame for the disappearance of authentic artists. It's that thing where, instead of singing during live performances, rappers just yell sloppily over the studio version of their song. He said his poster should be considered a public service announcement.
It reads: "There is a horrible new trend among today's rappers: RHYMING OVER VOCALS LIVE. This is unacceptable. You are ruining the essence of live hip-hop, it's lazy and means you have no stage presence." The 36-year-old has been putting up signs with this message for a few years, and said that there's a whole generation of rappers who think this style of performing is cool. But according to Zeps, it's taboo and makes you look foolish.
Looking For a Girlfriend Guy is Now Busy Perino-Scoping Around Town
December 21, 2015 By Kavitha Surana

We all remember Dan Perino, aka Looking for a Girlfriend guy and his abundant flyers around the East Village, don't we? (At least, we hope you didn't forget his speed dating escapades at our B+B Bazaar last year.) Well, he's kind of pulled back on his flyers as of late, and his bid for a reality show seems either stalled or forgotten. Could it be that Perino's quest for the perfect child-bearing-aged match is complete? (After all, he claims of hundreds of dates to his name.)

Looks Like the 'Looking For a Girlfriend' Backlash Has Begun
October 27, 2014 By Daniel Hoffman
(Photo: Daniel Maurer)
When we announced that Dan "Looking For a Girlfriend" Perino would be speed dating at our Bedford + Bowery Bazaar, a "Concerned EVer" commented, "This person has made such an ass of himself in the EV that I cannot imagine ANYONE actually being interested in him." Either that commenter has access to a Sharpie or others feel the same way, because here, above, is what someone has done with at least two flyers announcing Perino's new Indiegogo campaign.

And Now 'Looking For a Girlfriend' Guy Wants to Make a Doc About the 40 Cock Shots He's Received
September 26, 2014 By Daniel Hoffman
Just minutes after posting a story about knockoff "Looking for a Girlfriend" fliers, we stepped outside to discover that Dan Perino, the OG, is back on the scene, having posted the above flier today. That's right, he's looking for funds to make a documentary about what he says are now 67 dates and counting.
'Looking For a Girlfriend' Guy Is Officially a Meme, Is Now on Facebook
Not only did he inspire the "Also Looking For a Girlfriend Guy," but check out this flier advertising School for the Dogs, spotted across from Ruff Club on Avenue A. Dude's bigger than Dan Smith!
As for the real Dan Perino, who has started adding a personal website to his fliers, he joined Facebook earlier this month and is now posting his media appearances along with updates on his lurve life. Last week on PIX 11, he said he'd posted 15,000 fliers and gone on 65 dates.

It's Official: Flyering Is the New Swiping
Months after we spoke to Dan "Looking For a Girlfriend" Perino about the flyers he threw up around the East Village, they're still everywhere. We take it the lampost lothario still hasn't found that girlfriend, but that hasn't stopped the above Don Juan from putting up these hilarious "Also Looking for a Girlfriend" flyers in Williamsburg. Dude has copped Perino's exact steez — except he specifies that, in addition to being an artist, he's a game designer looking for a "gamer chick" who likes burgers (vegans need not apply).
Either that or he's the same guy putting up the fake movie flyers.

Meet the Man Behind Blish, Who Admits He Went 'a Little Overboard' With All Those Flyers
August 13, 2014 By Kate Beaudoin
If you've noticed these incendiary posters hung around Brooklyn, you'll be happy to know we found the man behind the curtain. Mark, who opted not to share his last name—"because I've been putting down so many blogs"—is a 25-year-old reality-TV producer with (no surprise here) a history of rejection and a big-ass chip on his shoulder.

The Latest Lamppost Lothario Has Gotten Over 400 Calls
July 28, 2014 By Kirsten O'Regan
When we saw this latest "Looking for a Girlfriend" poster up around the East Village, we thought it might be one of our previous flyer boys. Probably not swinging-man Alex, but possibly lonely-hearted Luis. This assumption was based on similar, defensive wording: "I'm really looking for a girlfriend. This is not a joke. Just tired of the singles scene and hoping to meet the right person…Open to the possibility of the relationship morphing into something more profound."

Meet the Heartbroken Man Who's Trying to Build a Social Network… With Flyers
July 1, 2014 By Kirsten O'Regan
(Photo: Kirsten O'Regan)
After the cocksure mystery-man approach of "Alex A." (AKA "Mr Right"), we wondered whether the heart-on-sleeve approach might be more effective. In this second flyer we recently spotted in the East Village, "Luis" (who's just "looking for someone to talk to") details how his girlfriend of seven years "decided that she couldn't deal with me and my financial struggle"; "[I]f you have a heart, you can give me a call or text," reads the flyer. "Don't be cruel I am really vulnerable right now." We spoke to Luis to check in on whether the community at large was playing nice.

I am getting ready to go tackle my garage…..UGH! It's a scary, scary place but I have been completing quite a few pieces lately that I haven't shared and I need a "photo" area. It will save our backs from lugging them out to the yard for every photo shoot.
The pictures that you all share at the Meet Me Monday party are awesome! I have been challenged to take better photos.
So many neat projects last week that were so inspiring!
Here were a few of the favorites.
Our Prairie Home shared an awesome card catalog transformation. Who all remembers the card catalog at the libraries? Her post talks about trying to explain them to her technologically savvy children. LOVE THIS!
This Happiness Blog shared a precious and easy to do fall table-scape! Check it out and tell her hello!
Real Southern Living shared an AWESOME deal on her mums that she found at Walmart! I think these are gorgeous and such a great deal!! She has great taste and you will love browsing around her blog! When do you put your mums out? I really think it is too warm here for my mums but maybe I am wrong. I love hers!
Now it's your turn! What have you been up to this week?
Will you be sharing fall ideas? Painting transformations? DIY projects? Recipes? Funny posts? It is all welcome here and I can't wait to see it!
What great features! Thanks so much for hosting!
Amazing features! Headed over to link up my project for this week, and what a nice surprise to see my Fall table featured — thank you 🙂 Have a wonderful week!
Thank you for hosting such a great party – so much inspiration…..

JEWISH HISTORY BLOG
Pharaoh's Chariots
Chariots in those days attacked in squadrons of three and charged in the formation of a triangle, one on the point and two on the flanks. Three charging chariots could break through any line of infantry. Chariots in the ancient world were the tanks of today. The Jews had no defense against chariots.
The Ten Plagues, according to tradition, covered a ten-month period of time. In that relatively short time frame the once great empire of Egypt was shattered. The streets were strewn with the dead of their firstborn. Their economy was in ruins. Most of all, the collective psyche of ancient Egypt was obliterated.
The Jews did not sneak out like prisoners in a prison break. They left as victors. They left "with an upraised hand" (Exodus 14:8).
God marched the Jews along a route that took them to the desert of Sinai. He did not lead them along the road which led directly to the land of Israel (Exodus 13:17-18), which would be the Via Maris or "Way of the Sea" (see Isaiah 9:1). This was the northern road stretching from what would one day be Alexandria up the coast into Gaza, which was the main road used in the ancient world to travel from Egypt to the lands of the north. It was one of the most ancient roads in the world.
The Jewish people, in their moaning and troubles, experienced a salvation so unexpected that a song of spontaneous joy collectively burst forth from them
They came to the Sea of Reeds, which is hard to identify. Perhaps it is in what is today the Gulf of Suez or the Bitter Lakes. In any event, as they encamped by the sea, Pharaoh suddenly had a change of heart. After contemplating the matter he realized that the Jewish people were in a terrible logistical situation. They had nothing to eat, nowhere to go and were trapped against the sea, a position no General would allow his army to find itself in.
Pharaoh could not resist the temptation. He gathered what was left of the Egyptian army, 600 chariots. Chariots in those days attacked in squadrons of three and charged in the formation of a triangle, one on the point and two on the flanks. The chariots also had knives and sharp instruments on their sides. The result was that three charging chariots could break through any line of infantry. Chariots in the ancient world were the tanks of today.
The Jews had no defense against chariots. They were an untrained rabble and the few arms they had were no match for the mighty Egyptian army. Suddenly, they saw Pharaoh's army approaching and found themselves in a situation in which there was no exit and no hope of victory. It was their most desperate hour. They were on the brink of disaster. The people were too immersed in the moment to realize that their highly compromised situation was the precise means by which they would achieve total victory. Had Pharaoh not thought they were vulnerable he would not have attacked and his army would not have been destroyed. The threat of Egypt might have continued.
Their own desperate situation duped Pharaoh into throwing everything into the fray in the hope of a final kill. In his headlong rush to victory he guaranteed his defeat.
The Jewish people, in their moaning and troubles, experienced a salvation so unexpected that a song of spontaneous joy collectively burst forth from them. All sorts of feelings of faith and emotion and hope for the future erupted from their hearts, their mouths and their limbs.
The same is true in the life of the individual. No one likes to be challenged and have troubles. However, the truth is that troubles are usually opportunities for growth and achievement more than one could have before. Many a successful person went on to success because he got fired from his job. He was forced to go out on his own and achieved unprecedented success.
That is an important subtext to the story of the Exodus. The troubles that befall the Jewish people as a whole offer a ray of opportunity. That does make it easier for those suffering from the troubles. Nevertheless, things are usually never as black as they look. One never knows how things will turn out. And then we look back in hindsight and say it was not so bad because out of the very trouble came these good things. Being human, of course, and by definition limited in our vision, it is very hard to be calm and philosophical about the event as it occurs.

The Getaway 3 (also referred to as Getaway 3, Getaway or Getaway PS3) was to be the third installment of Sony's The Getaway series. It was originally planned for release on the PlayStation 3 console. However, due to the fact that the PlayStation 4 was released before The Getaway 3, if The Getaway 3 ever was to be released it would be released on the PlayStation 4 instead of the PlayStation 3. The Getaway 3 was reported as being cancelled on the 4th of June 2008 along with Eight Days. However, in October 2009, the games were reported as not being cancelled but "on hold".
Nicolas Doucet, a member of London Studio says: "I would not say they have been abandoned, just put to one side. Much work had been done. The studio just wanted to focus on its strengths, EyeToy and SingStar. Given the potential of EyePet, priorities have been changed, but the other projects aren't dead yet. Ultimately, the decision [to put those games to one side] has benefited everyone."
The Getaway 3 Tech Demo
A technical demo featuring Piccadilly Circus was demonstrated in May 2005 at E3, but this was not directly from the game. It was confirmed that the game would again be set in London but rumours had been circulating that the game could also feature Amsterdam, which waseo shown at the E3 convention in 2006.
Information regarding The Getaway was released on 7 March, 2008 by screenplay writer Katie Ellwood, who affirmed the action title was still in the works. No estimated release date was given, however, Ellwood did say that Sony executives were making deals with film companies about the possibility of a future film adaptation of The Getaway 3.
Release Edit
As of 2017, there has been no new information regarding the development of The Getaway 3. No new trailers or images have been shown, nor has anyone confirmed that the game is in development and no longer "on hold".
Due to the fact that the PlayStation 4 was released in 2013, it is certain that if the game ever is to be released, it would be released on the PlayStation 4 instead of the PlayStation 3.
In 2016, leaked footage showing gameplay from an unnamed game lends credence to the rumour that the project has been revived. The footage showed a Bentley Continental screeching to a halt in Trafalgar Square before an unknown character leaped out, ran for cover behind Nelson's column and began firing on pursuing police. The graphics were clearly better than the PS3 could ever have coped with, and the flavour was distinctly "Getaway". Sony has not commented on this footage.
In March 2016, after the announcement of Sony's new PlayStation VR ('Virtual Reality') hardware, footage emerged of a demo pertaining to an exclusive launch title for the system under the name, The Getaway: London Heist. This certainly appeared to be some form of revival for the franchise, but it ended up being only an "experience" featured in Sony's Worlds for PlayStation VR, simply called The Heist, just somewhat similar to The Getaway.
In mid-2019, an SCE London game, Blood & Truth, was released. The game features many characteristics of The Getaway series, but isn't a proper sequel - nor a spiritual follow-up - to any of the Getaway games. It was a success, being the first VR game to top the best selling charts in the UK and obtaining a positive reception from critics: as of July 16th 2019 it has a critic score aggregate of 80 on Metacritic and an higher 8.3/10 average, from over 168 ratings given by Metacritic users.
It should be noted that Blood & Truth was initially viewed by SCE London as a sequel of the Getaway, as revealed in an interview, and the studio also seems to be hiring staff to work on a new unannounced action game, meaning that the Getaway series has still one last chance at a revival.

A glimpse of letterpress legacy
September 15, 2017 12:05 am·0 comments
by Abu Jar M Akkas
A man is picking up small metal pieces, one after another, from a case, of four drawers, full of compartments for each of the letters. He picks them up without looking into where he is putting his hand, sets them, one after another, on a compositing stick, to make up a line. When the line is too short for the usable width on the stick that he has set earlier, he spaces the words out with spacing leads. When the line is a bit long, he takes out some spacing leads or replaces them with small spaces.
As he finishes composing a page, he locks up the metal pieces, known as types, into a chase so that they do not loosen off. He runs an inked roller onto the chase, puts a sheet of paper and presses with roller again so that the ink comes off onto the page for proof correction. When the proof is done, he corrects the mistakes that he might have made.
Once this is done, a machine man mounts the chase onto the bed of a press, puts ink on a disc, with an automated roller inking the types. As the machine runs, the machine man takes a sheet of paper kept on a feed board and places it on the platen. The platen and the chase bed close together to make an impression, letters set beautifully, from the impact, to make text.
It usually took place, in earlier days, in a small dusty, dark room called print shops. The owners could buy the metal types, made of an alloy composed of lead, antimony, tin and, sometimes, copper — so that they can withstand the impact of the press and can last for several hundred papers of print — by weight from type or letter foundries. Type foundries, which cast the lead types off matrices, made from punches, one each for individual letters, have long closed the shop as computer technology started making inroads. The last remaining type foundry, in Old Town of Dhaka, stopped casting types about a decade ago and stopped selling whatever it had five years ago.
Yet, the technology, which started journey for the Bangla language — with Charles Wilkins, aided by his able assistant Panchanan Karmakar, making punches, matrices and casting types — in 1778 for the first Bangla grammar book, A Grammar of the Bengal Language, by Nathaniel Brassey Halhead that was printed in Hooghly, is now nowhere to come by.
But a glimpse of the process is on offer at the National Museum at Shahbagh. It began an exhibition, to run for a month till October 8, called 'Ancient Bangla Printing Process through Hand Composition', on the ground floor just inside the building entrance. Ancient? Not quite. It could be ancient if the 1778 milestone is counted, but it is just old if the time the print shops were closed, which is just a decade ago, is counted.
The exhibition showcases a treadle machine, pedalled, a full Bangla type case, some metal types therein and some others on display in plastic containers. Blocks of Dhaka Prakash, a weekly newspaper that came to be published in March 1861, with poet Krishna Chandra Majumdar as its first editor, and a re-printed copy of the paper, along with rubber, zinc or metal blocks of other print jobs also offers insight into the process. A short view of how text is composed and how the text is printed comes as an added experience. A number of posters put up there offer important information and specimens of texts printed in the initial days of Bangla printing, yet punches, matrices and moulds that were used to cast types could have brought the experience to a full circle.

Want to support this site? The Command Line for Web Developers is available to purchase on Amazon in print and Leanpub in most digital formats. Sales from the book help maintain and update this site and future editions. Reader support is available on Leanpub's discussion page.
This book's three main parts are: getting to know the basics of using the command line including Bash and Unix underpinnings, more advanced topics like running servers and customizing the command line for our purposes and using today's web developer tools like Git and npm.
Just like any development subject, there is a lot of ground to cover with Bash. It's an old technology with a lot of depth. That's not what this book is about. There are plenty of other books with much more detailed academic knowledge. We go into details in some areas, but everything will apply to web development.
Have you ever needed to install software that required entering text to the command line, but did not know what you were really entering? Instead of blindly following "Set up" guides by pasting commands into your terminal, this book explains what is really going on when you use those commands.
While the book is organized to cover basic subjects of using the command line to more complex applications, this does not mean it needs to be read from front to back. Most of the material can stand on its own, and any material that builds off previous material is referenced.
Over the course of two years from when I began writing this book, technology has changed a lot. I suspect that by the time you read it, parts of it will already need updating. For example, Apple has a neweer operating system than what we discuss in this book. Thanks, Apple. Fortunately, when you purchase this book, you can receive email alerts when this book gets updated on LeanPub. If you find something incorrect which needs addressing or more clarification, the LeanPub website has resources for getting those questions answered.
Windows users may notice a distinct Mac perspective. That's fair. While I try and point out when operations differ from Mac and Windows (such as installing Git), there will be areas that get missed. Currently, the web developer community is strongly leaning toward Mac. When I look around my office, my clients' offices, and at conferences, it's Macs all the way down.
The advantages of knowing command line tools are that the vast majority of them can be used from any system, not just Macs and Windows. And with the exception of a few spots where Windows and Macs differ, this book applies to both.
Inspiration to write this book came from my wonderful coworkers and colleagues who have the passion and desire to make great websites. They cover the spectrum of experience, from beginners to old-school pros. But they all have the same enthusiasm to learn. As web developers, learning the ever-changing landscape of our technology can be difficult enough without also knowing the low-level operating systems and shells and other underpinnings. I wanted to provide a base level for learning Bash in an effective and applicable manner. My hope is that no matter what your skill level may be, this book provides a solid foundation for understanding the command line for today's web developer.

3 Important Lessons from Zack George on Coming Back from Injury
The UK's 2020 Fittest Man suffered a season-ending injury in 2021 but is now ready to face off against the best in the sport.
CrossFitCommunityInterviews
By Caro Kyllmann
If you're not already familiar with Zack George's impressive story go and read it now.
The Leicestershire native was crowned the Fittest Man in the UK in 2020, but not many would have guessed that Zack would make a living out of being fit when he was young. In fact, the 31-year-old was "severely overweight and deeply unhappy with his body" growing up.
We'll fast forward past the long hours spent in the gym and the sheer amount of dedication Zack put in to get to where he is – that story has been told before – and will instead tell you about Zack in recent years. Because Zack's dream went beyond losing weight, he wanted to qualify for the CrossFit Games.
If you're familiar with the scene, you might know that his name is not yet in the CrossFit Games leaderboards. After qualifying in 2020 by beating every other man in the UK during the CrossFit Open, his invitation to compete was withdrawn a few months later as a result of the pandemic and its restrictions.
Source: RXd Photography
He set his eyes on the 2021 season, but bad luck would strike again. A new season format meant that athletes had to go through three stages of competition to qualify for the CrossFit Games, without opportunities to catch up if for some reason you missed one.
Zack pulled out during the second stage following a hip injury, forgoing so his chances to see his dream come true for a second year in a row. You'll learn more about his injury shortly, but what sets this story apart is how Zack dealt with it.
Because Zack is positive and humble and relatable in a way few professional athletes are.
And the way he navigated the injury offers invaluable lessons for everyday athletes.
Find acceptance
Zack felt a sharp pain from his hip down to his knee while competing, and while he was getting treatment for the pain daily, the CrossFit Quaterfinals Test 4, a 4-rep max front squat, was too much to take. He made the decision to pull out of competition to avoid causing further damage, the CrossFit Games would have to wait.
"IT Band Syndrome," he told BOXROX during a video interview this week. It is an overuse injury and the only way to treat it is rest.
Any squatting or running would aggravate the pain, so he was told to stay away from these exercises for 12 weeks. There was still plenty to do in the realm of gymnastics, but Zack does admit he lost a lot of leg strength during the recovery process.
Understandably, he was eager to train normally again and decided he was good to perform bodyweight squats again after 8 weeks, so he started incorporating them in his training. He wonders now if he tried to come back too quickly, with the injury lingering by for longer than it could have. Well, that's a lesson half learnt.
Focus on what you can do
Zack had a lengthy list of movements he couldn't do after the injury. He coaches and programs for himself, so week on week he'd feel out the injury and attempt something from the list, ticking off the exercises that didn't cause pain or discomfort anymore.
Bodyweight squats were the first to get ticked off, heavy cleaning was last. But the list was only one part of his training, and Zack went full in on what he could do while in the background slowly ticking away the movements from the list.
Five months would pass before he attempted to compete again, and when he did, he dominated. It gave him a huge confidence boost knowing he could again go all out and fully trust his body to perform without needing to hold back.
See possibility
Zack uses setbacks to achieve other projects. When he faces adversity or an obstacle that is out of his control, he accepts this and moves on.
After finding out the CrossFit Games were out of reach once again, he used the time to write a book and work with brands; opportunities that arose because he had new time available to him, time he would have otherwise dedicated to put forward his best performance.
"It doesn't make the setback worthwhile, but I can look back at the last two years and see something positive," he said. For that he is grateful.
Zack George and the new season
Zack recently finished second at the Madrid CrossFit Championship, a high-level competition featuring prominent CrossFit Games athletes and rising stars.
He's preparing to compete at the Dubai CrossFit Championship in December and then again in Miami at Wodapalooza in January.
"I just love competing," he said. He likes to test himself against the best in the world and gets great enjoyment from competing in front of fans, loving the feeling of hearing them roar and feeling their absolute belief in him. He can sense their desire for him to succeed.
One of his favourite moments – a close second to qualifying for the 2020 Games, which he considers his greatest achievement – was competing at Strength in Depth in 2020. Being in home soil there was so much support, the atmosphere was electrifying.
Additionally, he loves travelling to fun places, testing himself, and gaining an insight into his weak spots and improvement areas. As an athlete, the exposure and opportunity to make money throughout the year are pretty good as well.
He'd like to have finished Madrid, Dubai, and Miami with a lot of valuable information to then tackle the 2022 CrossFit season.
Watch out for him!

MGM's notion of a "B" picture would be an "A" production at any other studio, and Blonde Fever is no exception. Philip Dorn heads the cast as restauranteur Peter Donay, happily married to the pleasant but plain Delilah (Mary Astor). Approaching "that certain age", Donay's head is turned by curvaceous waitress Sally Murfin (Gloria Grahame, in her first important film role). At first only mildly amused by the flirtatious Donay, Sally begins turning on the charms herself when she finds out that he's won a $40000 lottery. It takes six reels, but Donay finally realizes how much he loves and needs his faithful wife, and how little Sally truly cares about him. Blonde Fever is based on a play by Ferenc Molnar, though it must have taken a lot of cutting to cram the original into 65 minutes' running time. PS: Hume Cronyn and Jessica Tandy, personal friends of director Richard Whorf, show up in unbilled cameos.

Gabriel van Oordt (auch: Gabriël van Oordt; * 24. September 1757 in Rotterdam; † 16. November 1836 ebenda) war ein niederländischer reformierter Theologe.

Leben
Der Sohn des Zuckerfabrikanten Hendrik van Oordt (* 4. Juni 1710 in Middelburg; † 24. Juni 1805 in Rotterdam) und der Wilhelmina von Charante (27. April 1723 in Rotterdam; † 2. Oktober 1802 ebenda) hatte das Gymnasium in seiner Heimatstadt besucht. Hier hatte er sich mit den klassischen Sprachen beschäftigt und wurde besonders von Gerard Johan Nahuys (1738–1781) gefördert, der damals als Pfarrer nach Rotterdam gegangen war und dem eine Professur der Philosophie und Moral am Rotterdamer Gymnasium übertragen wurde. Am 15. Juni 1775 immatrikulierte er sich als Student der Theologie an der Universität Leiden. Hier blieb er sieben Jahre und setzte danach seine Studien an der Universität Utrecht fort. In Utrecht besuchte er zwei Jahre lang die Vorlesungen an der philosophischen Fakultät bei Johann Friedrich Hennert und Johannes Theodorus Rossijn.

Sein prägender theologischer Lehrer wurde in jener Zeit Gisbert Bonnet. Nachdem er am 1. Juni 1784 eine Probepredigt abgelegt hatte, wurde er im Folgemonat nach als Pfarrer Oegstgeest berufen. Am 16. September 1787 wechselte er in gleicher Eigenschaft nach Vlissingen und ab April 1789 war er als solcher in Haarlem tätig. Nachdem er eine Berufung als Gymnasialprofessor in Haarlem und als Pfarrer in Middelburg ausgeschlagen hatte, beriefen ihn die Kuratoren der Utrechter Hochschule am 22. Mai 1804 zum Professor der Theologie. Zu diesem Zweck wurde er von Jodocus Heringa Eliza's zoon am 4. Oktober 1804 zum Doktor der Theologie promoviert und übernahm das ihm angetragene Amt am 11. Oktober 1804 mit der Rede De juvenis animis ad Christianum ministerium formanis, Doctoris Christianiae religionis academici officio cum praecipuo, tum gravissimo ac praestantissimo. In seinen Vorlesungen behandelte er die Dogmatik, die Exegese, Symbolik und legte in der Ausbildung der Pfarrer Augenmerk auf katechetische und homiletische Übungen.

Er beteiligte sich auch an den organisatorischen Aufgaben der Hochschule und war 1809/10 Rektor der Alma Mater. Oordt hatte schwierige Zeiten in der Utrechter Hochschule erlebt. Als diese am 16. Oktober 1815 geschlossen wurde, konnte man es erreichen, dass sie am 6. November 1815 wieder ihre Pforten öffnen konnte und er zu diesem Anlass eine Lehrrede veröffentlichte. Als 1822 ein neues Gesetz über die Hochschulbildung in den Niederlanden eingeführt wurde, konnte er seinen Lehrstuhl nicht mehr behalten. Man hatte ihm zwar einen Lehrstuhl für Natur und Moral angeboten, jedoch sein gesundheitlicher Zustand ließ die Übernahme dieser Aufgabe nicht zu. Daher verzichtete er auf seinen Lehrstuhl, wurde 1823 emeritiert und zog sich von der Hochschullehrertätigkeit ins Privatleben zurück. Oordt von dem keine weiteren Schriften überliefert sind, war dann noch gelegentlich für die Niederländische Missionsgesellschaft und die Niederländische Bibelgesellschaft tätig. Die letzten Jahre seines Lebens verbrachte er auf sein Landgut in Leuvenum, gab hier noch Religionsunterricht und half bei der Gründung einer Schule.

Oordt war zwei Mal verheiratet. Seine erste Ehe schloss er mit Henrietta Maria Vosmaer (* 1752; † 9. November 1815 in Utrecht), der Witwe von Jan Jacob Momma. Seine zweite Ehe ging er 23. August 1821 mit Anna Geertruijd Jacoba Bosch van Bunschoten (* 1768; † 10. Januar 1826 in Utrecht), der Tochter des Matthias Bosch von Bunschoten und der Anna Lucia Cramer van Veeren, ein. Aus den Ehen sind keine Kinder bekannt.
