Cosmopolis (2012)

I was reading a review the other day of Alejandro Jodorowsky's Santa Sangre, a Mexican horror movie that contains a great number of surrealist elements. Now, I'm not a big fan of the movie, but the negative review I was looking at was aggressively pissy because the film played with symbolism and metaphor. Because the director didn't approach the film with the lowest possible regard for his audience, the reviewer was hostile.
Today, here, in this review, I will not pretend that I have a complete comprehension of David Cronenberg's Cosmopolis. But I also won't write it off because it's obtuse. That's a cheat to you, and speaks pretty damn ill of me. Instead, let's look at it together, since a critic's job isn't to throw a hissy fit when something challenges their perception, but to explore it, on behalf of their audience and themselves.
Episodic and pensive, Cosmopolis defies easy explanation and denies the viewer a significant narrative thrust. A young stock market guru, Eric Packer (Robert Pattinson) has decided he wants to traverse the entirety of New York City to get a simple haircut. He takes a long white limousine that's packed with computer screens and other accoutrements, all the while a death threat hangs over his head and an anarchist riot plagues the city.
Water bottles have never seemed so erotic. (It's there, you can't see it.)
As he makes the journey, he picks up guests with little or no explanation and has long, rambling conversations with them. Each meditates on a point or a theory, with the interplay between money, power, sex and technology surging beneath the surface. As the day progresses, it all begins to wear on Eric. Starting cool and implacable, his fortune dissipates as he foolishly gambles his wealth on the performance of the North Korean Yuan. His power affords him a great deal of physical pleasure, but he can't possess his wife (Sarah Gadon) and that desire begins to undo him.
The film's overriding desire is to deconstruct. The opening credits, framed as the painting of a Jackson Pollock-esque art piece on a white canvas, is mimicked throughout the film by the destruction to the pristine limousine and the pristine white body of Robert Patterson. Both get soiled throughout.
Pattinson is good and believably understated in his role. He's surrounded with a lot of great supporting work: Juliette Binoche as his ravenous art dealer who gleefully rolls on his limo floor, Paul Giamatti as a bitter ex-employee, and Mathieu Amalric plays perhaps one of the most thematically important characters as a terrorist who likes to get the rich in the kisser with cream pie. There's also Samantha Morton as Packer's theological adviser. Her scene with her borderline-erotic dialogue describing how technology has eliminated time and rendered humanity obsolete borders on dizzying.
Morton had my favorite sequence as the person who has stopped believing in the relevance of the present.
Sarah Gadon seems to have perfected an Adrienne Shelly affectation which drives this film close to the same territory as director Hal Hartley's obscure science fiction flick The Girl from Monday. In fact, a lot of Hartley's offbeat mannerisms seem to inform the first half of the film, as Pattinson has become so disconnected from humanity that normal conversation works against the natural order. This diffidence melts, and we're left with a very messy picture, one that defies order and logic as nature would have it.
The temperature is cold and the heart is stone, but it's not nihilistic in the current trendy way. I didn't like Cosmopolis because it was dense or because I didn't fully understand it, but because I liked the acting, the setting, and the ideas it bandies about. It's not an easy movie to love, and it certainly goes on a bit long by the end, but anyone who feels out of touch to the world or worried about how technology and humanity are colliding will find that it serves as a fascinating and rather damning parable.
I hope that at least gives you a fair warning what you're in for, and a nice summary of what I liked about it. This is a movie that needs a DVD and a devoted man at a computer to completely deconstruct, but, as you get older, you realize that sometimes the pleasures in life lie in the mysteries. I don't have to understand everything that happens in the film, but getting angry because I don't understand it and blaming the movie... well, that would just make me an asshole.

Hey there. I'm the guy that wrote that Sante Sangre review. I just wanted to defend myself a little. First of all, I wasn't "pissy" because he dabbled with metaphor and symbolism. I actually like tons of movies that have symbolic elements. Hell, I have a degree in English/Literature and taught it for 3 years. Symbolism and metaphor are the types of things I can enjoy in a story, and a film doesn't have to play to the "lowest possible regard" for me to enjoy it. I didn't care for the film because that's *all* it was. There was no real story. There was nothing to draw me in outside of the fact I had no idea what absurdity I was going to see next. Even David Lynch, another surrealist-esque director will have something to tie all the symbolism together. This just felt like a mishmash of randomness that focused on a theme and a central character and that was it. There was otherwise no purpose to it, and because of that, I felt like I had wasted 2 hours of my life. I found very, very little entertainment in the film.
Second, I have an incredibly dry sense of humor, so–especially when it's a film I didn't enjoy–I often write very hyperbolically and matter-of-factly at the same time. This tends to set people off when they don't know my personality or my style and don't realize that I almost *never* intend actual malice toward a film.
So I apologize if you were offended by the review, but my negative reviews are typically written as reactionary-comedy and shouldn't be taken at face value. Think along the lines of the Nostalgia Critic from That Guy With The Glasses.com, if you know who that is.
( REPLY )
First I wanted to apologize for calling you out on my blog rather than on your own, which is a shitty thing to do. I thought about commenting, forgot that I wrote this, and then it dropped this morning. I can be shitty, and this is one of those instances.
I do know who the Nostalgia Critic is, and, while not a fan, I can see what you were trying to do with your review a bit more clearly with that information. The problem between the Nostalgia Critic and what you've prepared is that, without a voice and face, all I have is your words, which sound dismissive. Punctuating with profanity hasn't struck me as naturally funny in a couple of years, so that may just be my age kicking in.
And you don't have to tell me Santa Sangre sucks, I agree. I just went into your review hoping to learn something from it, either about the movie or yourself. Your explanation here is more what I was looking for than what I got in your review, which I appreciate.

You know, I don't just dismiss films for being challenging or obtuse, as I love the works of people like Lynch, and even Cronenberg himself. That said, I couldn't stand Cosmopolis. I found it dull, pretentious, smug-as-hell, with nothing to engage me, or make me care enough to even try to figure it out. To me, this was a big miss for Cronenberg.

There's not much that needs to be said for this one! You've probably seen Jimmy Kimmel's Mean Tweets segment, where celebrities read horrible tweets about themselves.
Well now, the nation has spoken (on Twitter) with their opinions on NZ Policing! Here's what they said and how the cops reacted..


Talbot County Emergency Services in coordination with our Volunteer Fire and Law Enforcement response partners have provided a way for businesses, nursing homes, and other facilities that are required to submit hazardous Materials (SARA Title 2) reports and site plans to the Local Emergency planning Council (LEPC).
We have provided a Pre-Response Template for those who would like to submit information that will assist our first responders in responding and managing an emergency situation at your facility.
Those submitting "Tier 2" reports and site plans may do so by completing the general submission information and attaching a "PDF" of the form as well as a site plan.


If you think quidditch is some imaginary game not possible to play by us mere muggles you'd be sorely mistaken.
These incredible expert skydivers brought one of our favourite Harry Potter exports to life. Broomsticks, a special flying ball, hoops and all.
They were crashing back to earth at around a thousand feet per second but that didn't stop them from indulging in a friendly game of quidditch. They actually make it look quite easy (we're sure it's far from that).
The stunt was made as an advert for Colombian telecommunications company ETB. It really makes the singing man from GoCompare look well lame.


Having come a long way from the traditional four-legged designs of the past, these exceedingly popular stools have evolved into an ever-expanding collection with something for everyone.
Exuding a real organic charm, wooden bar stools make use of natural materials for a homely vibe and warm, pastoral feel. Ranging from handcrafted bentwood to sumptuously padded modern masterpieces, you can find everything from dark walnut and light oak, to sleek cognac and black satin finishes. Renowned for its dynamic aesthetic is striking Zebrano Wood, with a contrasting striped grain that's sure to catch the eye. Whilst the archetypal box frame still stands strong, contemporary models that fuse a gas lift mechanism with classic rustic seats are fabulously versatile.

Home / Food & Drink / Wines & Spirits / Penfolds Creates Exclusive New Blend with Four Grange Vintages
By Alex Martin | July 23 2020
Penfolds has announced a new and exclusive wine blend, the g4
The most prestigious name in Australian wine, Penfolds, has announced a new and exclusive wine blend created with four Grange vintage releases. The aptly named Penfold g4 is a precise blend of the 2002, 2004, 2008 and 2016 vintages and the result is a completely unique expression of one of Australia's finest reds.
The g4 is the second iteration of its kind. In 2017, Penfolds released another unique blend from three past vintages (2008, 2012, 2014). Following its success, the g4 is the natural next step for a trilogy that concludes with the release of the g5 in 2021.
Penfolds chief winemaker, Peter Gago said of the new release: "These four Grange vintages are amongst our favorites of the last two decades. All so different – in every sense, not just climatically. The synergistic blending of these vintages worked perfectly from a quality, structural & style perspective.
The g4 is the second Penfolds Grange vintage blend of its kind
"Each vintage component was carefully selected to bring something different to the final g4 blend, adding layers of intrigue and complexity. Broadly: the cooler-vintage 2002 Grange is highly defined and sleek while the 2004 Grange is relatively quite opulent. The 2008 Grange is big and bold."
For ardent admirers of Penfolds, the g4 will offer a tantalizing first glimpse at the 2016 Grange, which is included as part of the blend but has yet to be released. The wine is expected to be released later in August with Gago saying the 2016 "freshens up the blend".
The original experimental 1951 Grange created by Max Schubert is now a wine regarded as one of the world's most celebrated collectibles. Indeed, the wine made global headlines earlier this month when a bottle of 51 Bin 1 Grange sold for $103,555 AU ($74,000) to become the most expensive Australian bottle ever. The extremely rare bottle was snapped up by a mystery buyer at an online auction following fierce bidding.
Only 2,500 bottles of Penfolds g4 will be made available on August 6, when the 2020 Penfolds Collection is released globally at $3,000 USD for a 750ml bottle.

I spotted this 'original still in the box' first Radio Shack Acoustic Modem while browsing in my computer museum warehouse last week. Not a unique item but worth a little discussion.
Modems were developed to fill the need to connect a printing device to the telephone line. Devices with functions like modems were in use as early as the 1920's however the mass production of modems started in the 1950's. SAGE air-defense systems in 1958 used modems and the word modem to connect there large computers together in a network using telephone lines.
These early modems worked at slow speeds of 110 to 300 bits per second or as computer folks would say "baud" and not "bits per second". These early modems had a very simple function of converting the tones that could be sent over telephone circuits into digital "One's (1) & Zero's (0). This allowed two way digital communications over wires for very long distances.
Modems performance did not improve much until the microprocessor was embedded into the circuitry in the late 1970's. Telephone modems were used by personal computer users & others until the World Wide Web or Internet became common use in the mid to late 1990's. With the use of embedded microprocessors the smart modem speed of data transmission over telephone circuits increased up to 14.4 Kilobits per second. Almost no one uses this type of telephone modems now except for Telephone/FAX machines. FAX machines are dying out fast with the sending of text document over the Internet.
FAX machines may be in use for a long time as they have a different level of privacy then the Internet - not really private but also not as searchable as the Internet.
The word modem is still in use as a common device used to connect the Internet, DSL or other high speed data links to computers and other digital devices.
This Radio Shack Modem has never been out of the box until now - 37 years after it was sold.
This Radio Shack Modem is acoustic coupled to the telephone line and no electrical connection were made direct to the phone line. The Acoustic coupling was not real efficent because of the extra telephone microphone and telephone ear receiver being coupled to the modem over and air link. The next photo shows this link.
The art deco telephone was also in the museum warehouse - The green color could not have been very popular however I will sure keep as cool example of the old rotary dial up telephone.
Here you see how the telephone was placed into the rubber coupling of the receiver and transmitter on the modem - no electrical connection. ATT had a monopoly and some government regulations did not permit direct connecting to the telephone line.
Of course many users ignored the regulation and made direct connections for a more efficient data transfer.
I expect Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs often made direct connection to the telephone line for some of their Blue Box calling to avoid paying the long distance tolls in the early 1970's.. The Steve's has a good little business selling their Blue Box's for short period of time.
The Manual was included in the box with modem and had a good description of the device and how it worked along with a schematic diagram.
This Modem is most likely not made by Radio Shack but a private labeling of a general purpose Modem for the TRS- 80 Model 1 computer - the first Radio Shack computer - 1977.
"I remember these well. The local RS had one on display with the TRS Model I. I wrote, debugged and ran my first program on that computer in 1977 at the ripe old age of 14. I coded it on pape first, then rode my bike to the store and typed it in. Several debugging cycles later (and about 2 hours) I got it to run. The manager liked the fact that I was there. Shoppers would come in and he would say "Look! It's so easy that a kid can use it!". "
While in the warehouse finding the Radio Shack Modem I came across these switches -they have been out of sight & stored for 20 or 30 years.
Looks like the same switch used on the IMSAI 8080 computer and perhaps a few others. If any of you retro computer folks need one please contact me.
Mostly red and a few black switches about 150 or so.
It is always fun to look thought the computer museum warehouse. I have more then 10,000 items on the museum data base "Past Perfect". This is not fully complete so their are probably twice this many total items and having been collecting for over 40 years I sure don't remember just what is in the warehouse.


There are countless advantages to hiring a capital management firm like CCMP Capital to oversee the functioning of a business. Hiring this firm reveals where every department of the business is overspending because it devises plans that scrutinize and adjust costs. For instance, a decade ago, a hardware company in Nevada was going through tough times in its landscape equipment business. Although the business was doing sales in the range of millions of dollars, the profits were consistently at zero for the first five years. The CCMP Capital installed a plan that called for the same sales level to make an annual profit of at least one million. They knew better. The business was able to set up its subsidiary in two other locations in the next five years and have been running smoothly ever since. There are numerous examples like this where businesses have profited by products, services and strategies that CCMP Capital sells.
Hundreds of business owners are seeking services from Stephen Murray CCMP Capital. The sales volume at the company has been increasing while indicating a sign of success. Plans devised by the professionals here have no room for trial and error. These plans go through the profit and loss statement of businesses to justify why every item has to exist. There is no room for sloppy budgeting and excessive purchasing as well. Because these plans focus on costs, they can be a great tool in uncovering ruthless efforts. The plans also make certain that every client enforces them. Hiring a capital management firm like CCMP Capital may be an alien subject for some, but as soon as they see benefits, they are going to embrace it.
It is all about being disciplined and holding accountable for profits and losses. The products and services from this company are adaptable to minor trims along the way. There is plenty the businesses can learn through this. Not having an adequate system to control the business can put the business in a position of extreme vulnerability. There is no making up for the sudden cutbacks sometimes as well. In other cases, increased sales require drastic measures of expansion and diversification. All these are better handled by a professional firm like CCMP Capital. The company works with what little resources the business has to emerge successfully. The system will weed out unnecessary expenses in a way that makes more sense. It is the plan to survive in a turbulent economy as well.
Stephen "Steve" Murray is the founder and man behind the success of CCMP Capital. He is a graduate from Boston College and Columbia Business School with a degree in commerce and business administration. He is also a well-known financial expert and philanthropist.
Planning for a private investment should always be done with institutional investors with track records and reputation. That is why the eassy writer is often always preferable to other services. The fact still remains that one will bet with more confidence dealing with CCMP capital since they have a working strategy for customers.

CREVE COEUR TEAM SHINES THROUGH WITH THOUGHTFUL AND SKILLFUL ALZHEIMER'S CARE.
This story is about Sharon B. More accurately, it's about the impact that Autumn View Gardens and our staff had on her life, even though she was with us for just a short time.
Before and after Sharon was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, she and her family experienced a challenging care journey. There was rehab. They tried another assisted living community. Sharon was cared for at home, for a while. There were trips to the hospital and the emergency room. Finally, Sharon's daughter, Lisa, gained guardianship of Sharon and set on a mission to find a permanent care and housing solution for her mother. We are honored that Lisa found us at Autumn View Gardens, Creve Coeur.
Lisa, her mother and other family members toured our facility near the beginning of the year. "It was lovely from the very start," says Lisa. It was decided that Autumn View would care for Sharon by providing assisted living services.
According to Lisa:
"Everyone was wonderful. They understood our unique situation. The physicians and nurses, everyone was great. They recognized that we loved our mother. They worked collaboratively to provide everything we needed to stabilize her difficult situation and provide the best care. Everyone knew exactly what to do and how to treat my mom."
Lisa singled out our own Susan Press, Director or Sales and Marketing. "She was wonderful, extremely empathetic, helpful and kind." We agree, that's certainly the Susan we know.
"The entire staff treated us with respect and dignity," says Lisa. "Even Keith, a maintenance team member, made a point to engage my mother. Everyone was kind, responsive and genuinely interested in my mom, not just as a patient, but as a person. She became close to the staff and to the residents. She made some meaningful, personal connections, Mom started to feel safe, relaxed and trusting of the situation, and that was so important."
"The facility itself is bright and modern. It felt like an apartment community. The kids loved when we visited. In addition to seeing their grandmother, they could take advantage of the activity areas, the rec room and pool tables…"
About six months after joining us, it was necessary to move Sharon to a nursing home. While she was here, she made quite an impression on us. Her daughter, Lisa, says the feeling is mutual.
"I would say Autumn View Gardens is an excellent place for family members with Alzheimer's. There is a feeling of independence, …a sense of normal living. And a sense of real caring."
Thank you, Lisa.
And thank you, Sharon, for being with us.

At the 4th September 2016 H!P Kenshuusei Happyokai evening performance, a 'KobuTalk' segment was held with Kobushi Factory members Fujii Rio and Hamaura Ayano as well as Kenshuusei Takase Kurumi and Kiyono Momohime.
The theme was 'Members that love Tsugunaga Momoko'.
Which begs the question of why notorious Yaji-oshi Fujidon was doing there.
Makoto: Their stories of their admiration of Tsugunaga-san will be balanced out by her love of Yajima-san.
Takase goes into further details about how Momochi leads Country Girls and keeps them in order.
She also enjoyed Momochi's expressions at the Buono! Budokan, where she got teased and babied by the other members.
Hamachan talked about how Momochi glances upwards and to the left after she's done singing a solo part, using examples from 'Mousou Rehearsal'.
Kiyono elaborated on the way Momochi pronounces her 'Koyubeam' - her 'ko' sounds close to a 'ka'.
Kiyono's attempt at a 'K(a)oyubeam!' was met with approval by the wota.
Kiyono started collecting ribbons because she'd heard that Tsugunaga-san had been collecting them expressly for her Momochi Musubi, and she wanted to have a hobby in common.
Kiyono now has a collection of 100 ribbons.
Takase: Her eyelashes and her lips.
Takase even has an 'eyelash and lips' folder in her smartphone, with photos focusing on both of those aspects.
Hamachan is known for her love of Tsugunaga Momoko, so she receives Momochi goods and photos. It's also well known that she has a file where she keeps the Momochi items she's received.
The ball-point pens and mechanical pencils Hamachan uses at school are also Tsugunaga-san's, and she always keeps her Momochi card case hanging around her neck.
Makoto-san asks Fujii-san if she'd like to share any stories of Yajima-san, having listened to the stories of the Tsugunaga Momoko-loving members from beginning to end.
While Fujidon suspects that most people are familiar with her many incidents with Yajima-san, she has a recent story to share.
She's recently been into using a face-switching app. The other day, she switched faces with Yajima-san's photobook, and proceeded to send that photo to the other members.
Fujidon was brought forward to do a Yurushite-nyan. having done that, the Momochi-loving members then criticised her performance.
Firstly, Fujii's head was completely straight.
Hama: Incline your head a little to the left.
(Fujii inclines her head to the left, from the audience's point of view.)Hama: That's the right.
After all the advice, Takase judged Fujii to be at her cutest, which lifted Fujidon's spirit.
Finally, the corner ended with all four of them doing the Yurushite-nyan.

U.S. lifts restrictions on transatlantic travel
The U.S. announced that it will lift travel restrictions for vaccinated citizens starting in November. AmCham welcomes the decision of the U.S. Administration believing this decision will boost business and trade and will strengthen overall U.S.-EU economic relations
Beginning in early November, foreign travelers will have to provide proof of vaccination before getting on a flight as well as proof of a negative COVID-19 test performed within three days before coming to the United States, White House pandemic coordinator Jeff Zients told The New York Times.
"International travel is critical to connecting families and friends, to fueling small and large businesses, to promoting the open exchange ideas and culture," Mr. Zients said. "That's why, with science and public health as our guide, we have developed a new international air travel system that both enhances the safety of Americans here at home and enhances the safety of international air travel."
Membership is an attestation that we belong to the modern Latvian business community.
Dace Silava-Tomsone, Managing Partner, COBALT
Being part of AmCham is a great way to maintain business contacts with entrepreneurs and professionals.

The reporting of animal studies is biased, inflating the efficacy of drug candidates and pushing them into the clinic before they are ready. This is the verdict of new research, which finds that more treatments go from pre-clinical to human trials than ought to, wasting valuable resources and potentially putting trial participants in danger.1 It adds to a growing body of evidence pointing to problems in the way animal testing is reported and managed.
Secondly, research groups will often run several sets of statistical tests, choosing the method which gives them the most significant result. The third issue is that of small study-effects. Smaller datasets are less accurate, which is particularly pertinent in animal trials, where many individual trials are performed with very small groups of animals.
Some of these problems may be harder to fix than others, but everyone seems to agree that the process should be more transparent. Pre-registering, a practice common in clinical trials where publication is agreed regardless of the outcome, would mean negative results don't get ignored. Multi-centre trials should help to eliminate small study effects.
Overcoming the inertia of the old ways of doing things may be hard, but the rewards could be huge. Macleod says that a new system of multi-centre animal trials could save millions of pounds. 'For stroke you need a dataset of about 1000 animals before you can be confident of what the drug does.' He proposes a system where 10 or 20 labs take part in the same trial. Information would be uploaded to a central database and then assessed 'blind' by one of the other centres. Such a trial would be expensive – around £2 million by Macleod's estimate – but much cheaper than a clinical trial costing £40 million.
Jarrett shares Macleod's optimism. She believes that bioscience is already becoming more open, as its practices grow more visible and acceptable and animal rights extremism retreats. 'Back in the 90s there was a lot of secrecy, mainly out of fear. Now scientists feel able to be more open.' She points to projects like figshare, an online data sharing service, as an indicator of scientists' willingness to address the problem.

Gayle Moran Corea at Carnegie Hall: Review from Eye on Dance Blog
Gayle Moran Corea — you know her as the stellar vocalist of Mahavishnu Orchestra and Return to Forever, and Chick's lovely wife of 42 years — sung at Carnegie Hall's Weill Recital Hall last week, in the much-anticipated "New Genre! Part 2" concert led by marimba master Mika Stoltzman.
The evening began with impeccable readings of new arrangements on Steve Reich and John Zorn, performed by Stoltzman and the Harlem String Quartet. Eye on Dance — a blog covering performing arts in NYC — was there:
The surprise came in the second half, when the musicians were scheduled to play pieces by Corea, when suddenly Ms. Corea announced that her husband was going to take the stage. Evidently, this was a last minute decision, but it made for the evening's most delectable moments. After all, jazz is about improvisation, making art out of the unexpected, which is precisely what they all did.
The night wound up with a gorgeous conclusion:
At the end the audience cheered, and as an encore, Chick played "My Funny Valentine" – a song that brought out the best in Ms. Corea and soared in the duet between Stoltzman and Chick—two consummate artists, who share a clarity of voice, astounding technique, musical breath and generosity of spirit.

This was how this Match Review began to form as I left the Cottage at half past four (I think that in my Fulahish lifetime, I've only left before the final whistle three or four times, incidentally), after McDonald ridiculously demonstrated once again just how hapless we've become, looking a shadow of the inspirational hero of last season to earn a cheap second yellow card.
I reasoned, once I arrived home, that maybe my initial reaction would be too harsh to share publicly and it would benefit from a delay in putting pen to paper so to speak. I'd already decided I was in no mood to watch the lowlights on the telly as I had just about seen my share for one day, so I'd leave the review until Sunday.
Well, I've since watched MOTD and frankly, there's nothing to add to the above.
As our American owner was attending the match, one really has to speculate how he must feel about this astonishing reversal in so few games.
I can't help hypothesising that if he's really serious about this crazy little hobby of his, he needs to have a heavier hand on the tiller because something is definitely not working in the navigation of our old tub.
Bournemouth are another bogey team for the Whites. This is becoming something of a mantra, this season but sadly the record is ten won, nine drawn and twelve lost, we could certainly do with an eleventh victory over the Cherries to boost those stats and we need three points rather urgently too.
To be fair, since our first meeting in 1928, we have met just 31 times, twenty six in the various levels of the English Leagues. Maybe if this was the next round of the Carabao we'd be hopeful of a win, as in the three games in that competion Fulham have a 100% record, the two FA Cup ties have us honours even.
The only positive thing to say about dismal records like these is that they are there to be broken so let's hope that this season sees us end bad runs against our bogey teams, including Bournemouth and chalk up some welcome wins.
Abject, spineless, clueless, embarrassing, pitiful, disgusting, rubbish, pathetic, ghastly, infantile, horrid, gormless, insulting, worthless, idiotic, immature, hopeless, pointless and incomprehensible!

funny comment ... maybe I'd rather give up coffee?
The delivery was fairly fast with 2-3. I liked the product for what I was hoping for.
I got the item quickly, there were no problems. Thank you.
I got a pretty long time shipping to a post office. I started using the supplement only on the first day, and I can not appreciate its performance. Service quality itself is good, informative.
I quickly received the item. Everything is great.
Ok ok delivery fast thanks.
The lid of the supplemental package has been split, so the lid has not formed.
We are still using it for a while, but it looks good.
Fast acting effective supplement. Helps to overcome depression.
Great product, very fast delivery!
I got the item very quickly.
It works very quickly, but the effect is not very long. Stress relieves effectively. As if in the evening, if not night if you do not sleep.

Q: How to update DIV content in Firefox using Javascript? I have this code in javascript to show time in div and update it:
  if (!document.all)
    return

  var Digital=new Date()
  var hours=Digital.getHours()
  var minutes=Digital.getMinutes()
  var seconds=Digital.getSeconds()
  var dn="AM"

  if (hours>12){
   dn="PM"
   hours=hours-12
  }

  if (hours==0)
   hours=12

  if (minutes<=9)
   minutes="0"+minutes

  if (seconds<=9)
   seconds="0"+seconds
   var ctime=hours+":"+minutes+":"+seconds
   $("#c").text(ctime);

   setTimeout("show2()",1000)
}

window.onload=show2

and I have this div :

in IE every thing is ok but when I try it in Firefox, it's not working.
I also tried to use
c.innerHTML=ctime

and it's not working.
What is the right way to do it on both IE and Firefox?
Thanks

A: it's the first line
if (!document.all)
    return

since .all property exists on Explorer and Opera only.
You are preventing other browser to continue code execution

A: Try

 and document.getElementById('c').innerHTML = ctime;
and get rid of if (!document.all) return

A: Remove
  if (!document.all)
    return

since document.all is an IE only extension, and FireFox doesn't support it

« WHERE THE HELL ARE THE BLOGGERS AND RADIO PERSONALITIES WHEN PEOPLE NEED THEM?
Let me start by saying I like State Auditor Tom Wagner. But he is over his head when he tries to get involved with law enforcement related matters.
The Sunday News Journal's excellent story about the Lofink case (one million dollars stolen from the Department of Finance) gives firsthand living proof that State Auditors know NOTHING about how to handle alleged corruption. When Auditor Wagner got a tip about the possibility of an in-house embezzlement might have been committed, he ran right the head of the finance depart to report the tip. THAT'S CRAZY! All you did Tom was to give a Department Chief the opportunity to cover it up, or cook the books, or hide it, or say it was taken care of and there was no need to go any further. You always have to consider that potential.
THAT'S WHAT SERPICO DID ON THE NYPD back in the day when I was there.
YOU NEVER TELL THE "SYSTEM" INVOLVED WHEN RECEIVING SUCH A TIP ABOUT THAT VERY SYSTEM.
If a tip came in to an Inspector General's Office, the Finance Department would have been the LAST people to hear about it. Who knows if more people were not involved. Who knows for sure that the head of the Department might want to hide it?
An Inspector General would have pounced on it with an undercover wired-up agent to work in the place, and do the investigating from the inside. That type of corruption cannot be hidden from everybody….the undercover agent would have discovered who was doing what. Or, an IG would have raided the place, grabbed the books before cooking could take place. Every one within the system is a possible suspect.
It all would have been done quickly and efficiently—not the Delaware Way of giving people time to manipulate the outcome. Auditors would have worked under the IG, and not make the decision on his own to give the incriminating suspicion to the head of the very agency that is committing the crime.
It is no wonder that people could have stolen hundreds of thousands more in AFTER the tip was passed on; as the News Journal reported. No one can convince me that the Finance Department might not have been using a hell of a lot of time trying to figure out how to gt out of the mess without going public.
Sure the magnitude of the amount could not have been totally covered up…but I'll bet they wasted a lot of time trying to figure out how NOT to let it out. Meanwhile, while they are wasting time perhaps trying to cover it up, the thieves were able to grab even more than they had already stolen.
GIVE IT UP, ATTORNEY GENERAL AND STATE AUDITOR!

Verizon executives would like it very much if you purchased a Verizon subscription for your… car. The communications giant unveiled a new product, Verizon Vehicle, which will plug into car dashboards and provide real-time engine diagnostic information, Bluetooth-based roadside assistance, and instant emergency alerts. Erik Goldman, a Verizon executive, said at a Detroit press conference that the product would be available to all car owners and would not require a Verizon Wireless account.
The dongles, which plug into OBD-II connectors (found in most cars created after the mid-1990s), could create headaches for automakers with their own telematics systems and a host of startups. Services like GM's OnStar are reliable revenue generators for midrange and luxury vehicles, while smaller companies like Metromile, Automatic, Mojio, Zubie already offer products similar to Verizon Vehicle. Verizon, of course, has a much bigger marketing budget than any of these little guys, and its distribution infrastructure will make it a formidable opponent.
Goldman added that the dongle is designed to send information on potential auto-related discounts to drivers via SMS text message, email, or phone push notifications. Pricing for Verizon Vehicle is tentatively planned to be $14.99/month for the first car, and $12.99 for each additional auto under a two-year contract. According to Verizon, families with multiple cars are expected to be one of the main buyer categories for the service.

Doctor murdered on Duty, Uttarakhand HC...
Doctor murdered on Duty, Uttarakhand HC asks state to pay Rs 1.99 crore to Wife| Detcare
The Uttarakhand high court directed the state government to pay a compensation of Rs 1.99 crore to Sarita Singh, whose husband Dr Sunil Kumar was shot dead in April 2016 while discharging duties in Udham Singh Nagar district.
The directions were issued by the division bench of acting chief justice Rajiv Sharma and justice Manoj Kumar Tiwari.
Sarita Singh had made a representation before the chief secretary, along with a copy to the chief minister for providing extraordinary pension under Rule 10 of the Uttar Pradesh Civil Services (Extraordinary Pension) Rules, 1981.
The chief medical officer, Udham Singh Nagar had also sent a communication in 2016 to the director medical department for providing compensation to the petitioner.
The HC said: "The petitioner's husband was discharging the official duties at CHC, Jaspur. He was shot dead on 20.4.2016. The chief minister has agreed to pay compensation of Rs 50 lakh but till date, only a sum of Rs 1 lakh has been paid to the petitioner."
"It was the duty of the state government to protect the life of the petitioner's husband. He was on duty as per the averments made in the petition. Killing a doctor, while on duty, amounts to negation of rule of law," the order said.
HC also noted: "The petitioner was entitled to extraordinary pension as per the Uttar Pradesh Civil Services (Extraordinary Pension) Rules, 1981, as amended from time to time. The stand taken by the respondent - state that the rules are not applicable is not tenable. The purpose of framing these rules is to help a family after the death of an employee on duty," the order said.
The court said it can take judicial note of the fact that doctors also risk their lives while performing their duties.
The HC said: "The petitioner's husband was 51 years of age at the time when he was shot dead. His last drawn salary was Rs 1,27,300. He was bound to be promoted to the post of chief medical officer (CMO). In case of promotion to the CMO, his salary would have been Rs 1,91,000.
"Even after making necessary deductions, the figure comes to Rs 1,25,300. The reasonable multiplier at the age of '51' would be '11'. Thus, the family is entitled to Rs 1,89,09,000 as compensation. The petitioner's family is also entitled to the loss of consortium and love and affection quantified as Rs 10 lakh," the order said.
The court also directed the government to award extraordinary pension to the petitioner as per the provisions of the Uttar Pradesh Civil Services (Extraordinary Pension) Rules, 1981within 10 weeks along with arrears at the rate of 8.5% per annum.
It also directed the state government to enforce the provisions of 'Uttarakhand Medicare Service Persons and Institutions (Prevention of Violence and Damage to Property) Act, 2013, in letter and spirit.
A great judgement indeed.

Main values in the context of EU-history
Background information for teachers and educators: Main values in the context of EU-history
Hands photo created by rawpixel.com
This blog article aims to summarize important facts concerning the European Union, its history, institutions, and its values.
In this article, we address six basic European values, such as respect for human rights, democracy, freedom, peace, tolerance and respect, and equality and solidarity.
Tolerance and respect
Equality and solidarity
1. Human rights
The Human Rights that apply to the EU member states are enshrined in the European Convention on Human Rights, which has been in force since 1953. The convention concerns the 47 member states of the Council of Europe, an international organisation founded in 1949 (not to be confused with the European Council or the Council of the European Union).
The European Court of Human Rights monitors compliance with human rights in the 47 member states of the Council of Europe. In addition to the European Convention on Human Rights, there is the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, which emphasises the protection of citizen rights before the nation states (https://www.europarl.europa.eu/charter/ pdf/text_en.pdf).
Neither of the founding treaties of the European Communities – the Treaty of Paris (1951) or the Treaty of Rome (1957) included any reference to fundamental rights. When the European Union was formally established by the Treaty of Maastricht (1992), this case law of the Court of Justice on the dual sources of fundamental rights in the EU was codified in the new Treaty on European Union in its Article F(2). Nonetheless, in its case law the European Court of Justice started to treat such rights as unwritten 'general principles of Community law', thereby granting them the status of primary law… The entry into force of the Charter of Fundamental Rights as a binding legal act in 2009 did not, however, deprive the ECHR of its role in the EU legal system as a source of fundamental rights in the form of general principles.
(Extract from European Parliament Think Tank: https://www.europarl.europa.eu/thinktank/en/document.html?reference=EPRS_BRI%282017%29607298; accessed on 7/04/2020).
The Charter essentially covers the six major areas: human dignity, freedoms, equality, solidarity, civil rights and judicial rights.
The EU's human rights' policy does, however, go beyond the guarantee of human rights for its own citizens. For example, the EU has set itself the goal of promoting human rights worldwide. The EU sets the following priorities:
Support rights for women, children, minorities and displaced persons;
Against the death penalty, discrimination, torture and trafficking; and for civil, social, economic and cultural rights;
Appointing for the protection and defence of human rights in partnerships and co-operation with other organisations;
Strengthening a common human rights policy of the Member States of the EU through results-oriented approaches.
However, in December 2015, the Court of Justice of the European Union ruled that the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union did suffice for the protection of the Court's exclusive jurisdiction. At present, no new accession agreement has been advanced, but 'both the Parliament and the Commission underline the need for EU accession'.
Scholars seem today divided, with some considering this accession as an added value, and others expressing the view that accession would be harmful to EU citizens.
The following table shows the difference between the European Convention of Human Rights and the Charter of Fundamental Rights:
The term democracy comes from the Greek words "demos", meaning people, and "kratos" meaning power; so, democracy can be thought of as "power of the people": a way of governing which depends on the will of the people.
There are so many different models of democratic government around the world that it is sometimes easier to understand the idea of democracy in terms of what it definitely is not.
Democracy, then, is not autocracy or dictatorship, where one person rules; and it is not oligarchy, where a small segment of society rules. Properly understood, democracy should not even be "rule of the majority", if that means that minorities' interests are ignored completely.
A democracy, at least in theory, is government on behalf of all the people, according to their "will" […] However, a democracy is also incomplete without a thoroughgoing respect for human rights. Taking part in government, in a genuine way, is almost impossible to do without people having other basic rights respected.
The EU presents an important democratic characteristic: the separation of powers. Even if this does not happen in the classical form of the legislature, executive and judiciary, power is not centred on one person or institution.
The legislative power is constructed in the interaction between citizens, the Council of the European Union and the European Parliament:
Every adult EU citizen has the right to stand as a candidate and to vote in elections to the European Parliament, to vote in their country of residence, or in their country of origin. Against the death penalty, discrimination, torture and trafficking; and for civil, social, economic and cultural rights;
In the European Union, the Council of the European Union (or 'Council of Ministers' of the EU) and the European Parliament are the only two sources of democratic legitimacy; they are the EU's two legislative chambers composed of elected officials.
The European Council is composed of the heads of state or government of the 27 EU member states together with its President and the President of the European Commission, and defines the guidelines of EU strategies, priorities and policies.
On the other hand, the European Commission is composed of 'commissioners' who are not elected by EU citizens, but who are nominated by governments of the member states in consultation with the president of the commission; commissioners are, therefore, non-elected officials who represent their member state's executive. The European Parliament approves the EU commission as a body. Further, the executive power is in the governments of member states that implement EU laws and regulations at the national level.
The EU also has a supreme court, the Court of Justice of the European Union, which ensures the uniform application and interpretation of EU law; its decisions are binding for all Member States (see section 4.1.1).
With the establishment of the European Parliament and the first elections in 1979, central democratic institutions were created to increase the co-determination of EU citizens. The voices of the citizens are therefore represented in the European Parliament. National representatives are elected every five years and move into the European Parliament; nevertheless, they are allocated according to the political parties they belong.
There are always discussions as to whether this approach is ideal. For example, each country is allocated a certain number of seats according to the size of its population. This means that in small countries, with few inhabitants, candidates must win fewer votes to get seats than in, for example, Germany in order to get a seat. This principle of degressive proportionality means that not all votes count equally.
The equality of the value of all votes, however, is actually a principle of democratic elections. This is alleviated by the fact that, at least in the national elections, all the votes cast count equally.
The Union offers its citizens an area of freedom, security and justice without internal frontiers in which the free movement of persons is ensured […].
(Extract from Art. 3 II TEU,).
3. Freedom
As already mentioned in Article 2, TEU, all member states of the EU commit themselves to cultivate a plural All member states of the EU commit themselves to cultivate a plural society that is free for every individual. Individual freedoms such as respect for private life, freedom of thought, religion, assembly, expression and information are protected by the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights.
Finally, a large area that guarantees free- dom between different Member States within the EU is the four fundamental freedoms of the internal market since 1993.
These concern the free movement of persons, services, capital and goods. This means that people can move and reside within the EU. Under the Schengen rules they can travel without being checked at the borders. Goods can be traded duty-free and services can also be offered on foreign markets. EU citizens are also free to choose the country in which to invest their money.
In addition to the economic union that the EU was at the beginning, it has also been a monetary union since the introduction of the euro in 2002. 19 of the 27 member states to date have adopted the euro as their official currency (European Union, 2019a).
Europe has a major role to play on the international scene and must therefore show its commitment to making this world a safer place, a place of shared prosperity, and a place where human rights and human dignity are at the centre of everyday life.
The European Union should speak with one voice and act accordingly when it comes to peace, security and human rights. In the long run, ensuring stability on the European continent can only be achieved through co-operation (Council of Europe, 2017; European Union, 2019b; European Commission, 2020). Sustainable and social development is integral to peace.
The Second World War ended at least 55 million lives in Europe. In view of this suffering and the intention that such a tragedy would not be repeated, the European states agreed to pro- vide not only for the abatement of military force, but also for a genuine peace between the nation states in Europe. This is what British Prime Minister Winston Churchill demanded in 1946:
"Our constant aim must be to build and fortify the United Nations Organ- isation. Under and within that world concept we must re-create the Euro- pean family in a regional structure called, it may be, the United States of Europe, and the first practical step will be to form a Council of Europe. If at first all the States of Europe are not willing or able to join a union, we must nevertheless proceed to assemble and combine those who will and who can. The salvation of the common people of every race and every land from war and servitude must be established on solid foundations, and must be created by the readiness of all men and women to die rath- er than to submit to tyranny.[…] Therefore I say to you 'Let Europe arise!'".
(Winston Churchill, 1946)
Robert Schuman, at that time French Foreign Minister, designed on behalf of the French government a first idea of the practical implementation of a peaceful and cooperative Europe. Thus, economic co-operation helped to lay the foundation for 70 years of stable peace in Europe.
The European Union was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2012 for this achievement. The Norwegian Nobel Committee justified this decision with the achievements of the European Union, which can be seen in the successful fight for peace, reconciliation, democracy and human rights. This award was, however, heavily criticised in light of policies that left more than twelve thousand refugees drowning in the Mediterranean Sea and the arms' exports of European countries. Nonetheless, Herman van Rompuy who was President of the European Council at that time summarised in his acceptance speech:
"Peace is now self-evident. War has become inconceivable. "
To this day, promoting and maintaining peace is a central element of the Lisbon Treaty (Arti- cle 3 TEU), and the pursuit of a peaceful future based on common values is also formulated in the first sentence of the preamble to the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union.
5. Tolerance and respect
Tolerance and respect are enshrined as values in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union. The preamble to the Charter already states:
The Union contributes to the preservation and to the development of these common values while respecting the diversity of the cultures and traditions of the people of Europe as well as the national identities of the Member States and the organisation of their public authorities at national regional and local levels […].
(Extract from CHARTER OF FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS OF THE EUROPEAN UNION (2000) – Preamble; https://www. europarl.europa.eu/charter/pdf/text_en.pdf
"In addition, Article 21 (1) of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union also contains essential principles regarding non-discrimination:
Any discrimination based on any ground such as sex, race, color, ethnic or social origin, genetic features, language, religion or belief, political or any other opinion, membership of a national minority, property, birth, disability, age or sexual orientation shall be prohibited.
(Extract from CHARTER OF FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS OF THE EUROPEAN UNION (2000) – Art. 21 (1); https://www.europarl.europa.eu/charter/pdf/text_en.pdf
Conversely, it shows that the European Union is committed not only to non-discrimination, but also to tolerance and the acceptance of the equality of all citizens. This can also be deduced from the importance of human dignity in the EU. Article 1 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union reads as follows:
Human dignity is inviolable. It must be respected and protected.
(Extract from CHARTER OF FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS OF THE EUROPEAN UNION (2000) – Art. 1; https://www.europarl.europa.eu/charter/pdf/text_en.pdf
In order to make tolerance and respect important factors for living together in the EU, the EU has issued several directives that address various aspects of tolerance and respect:
against discrimination on grounds of race and ethnic origin.
against discrimination at work on grounds of religion or belief, disability, age or sexual orientation.
for equal treatment for men and women in matters of employment and occupation.
for equal treatment for men and women in the access to and supply of goods and services.
against discrimination based on age, disability, gender, sexual orientation and religion or belief beyond the workplace.
Despite these efforts by the EU, citizens' perceptions of the success of these directives show some weaknesses. Eurobarometer surveys in 2015 showed that 22 percent of respondents in the European Union did not consider anti-discrimination efforts to be effective. In addition, questions on personal attitudes towards discrimination showed that there is a significant part of the population that has reservations about people of, for example, other backgrounds, cultures or religions.
However, it can also be seen from the objectives of the directives that tolerance and respect are also very closely linked with equality. For this reason, the value of equality is examined in more detail below. This value was also seen as a key value by respondents to the survey as part of this project.
6. Equality and solidarity
In general, no differences are made between citizens in the EU, regardless of which EU Member States they come from or which gender they belong to. The EU promises all its citizens to stand up against discrimination and social exclusion that could threaten them.
Diversity should be respected and encouraged.
Another principle of the EU is that all member states are treated equally. For this purpose, the EU establishes its intention to "enhance economic, social and territorial cohesion and solidarity among EU countries" (European Union, 2019c).
Another fact that underlines the equality of all member states is, for example, that all languages within the EU have the same importance. There is no official language, but every important document is always translated into all the official languages of the member states.
Not all policy areas of the EU ensure equality for all. Although laws and rules have been passed at the institutional level that treat everyone equally, there are wage differences in the member states, for example. The full solidarity between the member states is also repeatedly confronted with economic interests. It is, therefore, regularly questioned whether the EU is not primarily an economic union and not a union of values.
[The EU] combats social exclusion and discrimination and promotes social justice and protection, equality between women and men, solidarity between generations and the protection of children's rights.
It promotes economic, social and territorial cohesion and solidarity between Member States.
[The EU] shall respect its rich cultural and linguistic diversity, and shall ensure that Europe's cultural heritage is safeguarded and enhanced.
(Extracts from Art. 3 III TEU, translated into English from: https://dejure.org/gesetze/EU/3.html).
In addition to the election of the European Parliament, EU citizens have other opportunities to participate. There are also structures of direct democracy in the EU.
With the help of the European Citizens' Initiative, they can get the Commission to propose laws, which are then adopted in an interplay between the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union. For a European Citizens' Initiative, citizens have to collect one million signatures for their topic of request.
Each citizen of the EU can submit a petition to the European Parliament alone or together with other citizens. He or she can complain about individual or general matters, report violations of the law or demand that the European Parliament give its opinion on certain matters (European Parliament, 2019b).
The last possibility to use a direct democratic structure is to submit a complaint to the Ombudsperson. If an EU citizen wishes to complain about an EU institution, he or she can turn to the Ombudsperson. Only a complaint to the Court of Justice of the European Union cannot be dealt with through the Ombudsperson (European Parliament, 2019a).

Q: Maven local file:// repository is not resolved I know it is a bad practice, but the situation must have this approach.
I am trying to put part of the dependencies in the project dir itself.
I created a dir called m2 in the project root(it is on the same level as the pom file) and copied the file structure there. Also, I added this local maven repo to the POM.
The problem is that I am using a parent POM which is located in this new local m2 repo, but it can't get resolved. I am using a windows machine.
Local file repo added to pom:
<repository>
    <id>local-maven-repo</id>

Parent pom definition:
