Constantinople (Gr. the city of Oonstantine; Turkish, Istambul or Stam-bul), the capital of Turkey, situated at the S.
W. entrance of the Bosporus, upon a triangular peninsula belonging to the European (Thra-cian) shore, and formed by the Golden Horn (the harbor of Constantinople), an inlet of the sea, and the sea of Marmora, in lat. 41° N., and Ion. 29° E. Its population, including all its suburbs, was in 1848, according to the official tables of the board of health of that year, estimated at 778,000; the present population is by some estimated at 1,000,000, and by others, who are probably nearer the truth, at not more than 400,000 or 500,000. Of the inhabitants more than one half are Mussulmans, and the remainder are Greeks, Armenians, Jews, Persians, and other orientals, and many Levantines or native Christians of European descent. The location of Constantinople is equally favorable in a commercial and in a political point of view. Its harbor, which is capable of containing 1,200 ships, is thronged by vessels of all nations, and its commanding position at the junction of the Mediterranean and Black seas would, in the opinion of many, render it, if in the possession of a strong and energetic power, the key of the political supremacy in Europe and Asia. - The picturesque aspect of the city is celebrated; but the favorable impression made by the beautiful liilly shores, beset with villas and gardens, vanishes at the first glimpse of the interior of the city.
The streets, before the great fires of 1865, '66, and '70, were nearly all narrow, crooked, and exceedingly dirty, the houses dilapidated, and the atmosphere filled with offensive odors. The old city proper is about 12 m. in circumference, and is enclosed on the land side by a triple wall and moat, which, although unimportant as defensive works according to the requirements of modern military science, might in an emergency offer considerable resistance to an enemy. The wall has 27 gates. The old streets, the irregularity of which defies all attempts of the stranger to find his way, have generally no names, nor arc the houses numbered; they are badly paved, not lighted at night, and in addition to their general cheer-lessness they are the resort of thousands of ownerless dogs. The houses here are for the most part built of wood, and hence destructive conflagrations are of frequent occurrence. During one night in 1852, seven fires destroyed an aggregate of 8,500 houses. A still more destructive conflagration took place in September, 1865, which is said to have swept away 8,000 houses, 20 mosques, and a large number of baths, khans, and public buildings.
Another severe fire occurred in May, 1866; and still others in June, 1870, and early in 1873. The city is divided into separate districts inhabited by Turks, Greeks, Armenians, and Jews. The Turkish districts are the most extensive. The bewildering labyrinth of streets, lanes, and alleys is almost unrelieved by public squares, of which only the following are worthy of mention: At Meidan (horse square), a portion of the old hippodrome; Serai Meidan (palace square); Serasker Meidan, a portion of the old Forum Tauri; Tavuk Bazaar (poultry market); Jindi Meidan; Et Meidan, where the public executions take place; and Vefa Meidan. A feature peculiar to Constantinople is the bazaars or market halls, large fire-proof buildings lighted from above, in which hundreds of tradesmen and shopkeepers retail their wares, and some of which enclose several covered streets. Open markets for the sale of horses and cattle, fish, etc, are kept daily in several streets or squares; also a market for old clothes, not inappropriately called the Bit Bazaar, or lice market. The Avret Bazaar (women's market) was formerly set apart for the sale of female slaves.
Of castles there remains only one, the castle of the seven towers (Yedi Kule), originally built as a citadel, but afterward used as a state prison for princes, and the ambassadors of nations at war with Turkey. The sultan's residence of state is the Serai Humayun (seraglio), a small walled city of itself, nearly 2 m. in circumference, and including mosques, dwelling houses, baths, gardens, governmental offices, the mint, arsenal, and treasury building. Formerly it was inhabited by at least 6,000 persons, and entirely inaccessible to strangers. The mystery which surrounded it gave rise to the most fabulous accounts of the splendor and magnificence of this imperial resi-dence all of which have vanished since it has been thrown open to visitors, who could not fail to see that the sultan's palace stands far below the residences of other European mon-archs in sumptuousness and commodiousness. The outer gate of the seraglio is called the Sublime Porte, a designation frequently applied to the Turkish government. The old seraglio (Eski Serai), erected by Mohammed II. in the centre of the city, is about 3/4 m. in circumference, and encloses the office of the secretary of war, two barracks, the military academy, etc. The number of prayer houses or mosques in Constantinople is very large.
There are about 500 larger ones (jamihs), 100 of them in the old city proper, and the number of lesser ones (mesjids) is given at 5,000; but this is probably an exaggeration. Unrivalled in gorgeousness is the great Agia Sofia, formerly the church of St. Sophia, originally founded by Constantine in 325, rebuilt by Justinian in 532-'8, transformed into a mosque by Mohammed II. in 1453, and renovated by the architect Fossati in 1847. The edifice is built of light bricks, but throughout lined with colored marble; its ground plan has the form of a cross, 350 ft. long and 236 wide; the diameter of the dome measures 107 ft.; the height from the ground to the cupola is 180 ft. The ceiling and the arches between the columns are inlaid with beautiful mosaic work and gilt; the gallery, 50 ft. broad, is sustained by 67 columns, some of which are of green jasper, and are said to have been taken from the celebrated temple of Diana at Ephe-sus; nine massive bronze portals are covered with the most artistic alto-rilievo work.
Other remarkable mosques are Kutchuk (Little) Agia Sofia, built by Justinian; Kilisse Jamih (mosque of the churches), the burial place of several Byzantine emperors; Exi Marmara Jamih (mosque of the six marble columns), said to have been a temple of Jupiter; the mosque of Mohammed II., with which are connected eight medresses (colleges), a hospital, an eating house for the poor, etc.; the mosque of Sultan Ahmed, the only one that has six minarets; the Sulimaniye, built by Solyman the Magnificent in 1550; the Shah Sadeh Jamih (mosque of the princes), and the mosque Nuri Osmani, in the vestibule of which stands a sarcophagus of porphyry, said to have enclosed the mortal remains of Constantine the Great. Constantinople is the seat of the patriarchs of the Greek and Armenian churches. The Greeks have 21 churches in the old city; the prayer houses of the other denominations are small and unimposing. The number of Mohammedan and Greek convents is considerable. No one of the numerous religious orders of the Mohammedans is without one or more convents. Among the charitable institutions is a large number of imarets or soup houses, in which tens of thousands of persons are fed.
There are 200 hospitals, in some of which Christians are provided for, over 2,000 public baths, and 40 khans (large enclosures, including warehouses and hotels). Two aqueducts 9 or 10 m. long, built by the emperors Hadrian and Constantine, furnish the city with water. The cisterna basilica, constructed under Justinian, the roof of which rests upon 336 marble columns, is still used as a reservoir. - The number of primary schools in Constantinople, in which only reading and the prayers are taught, is over 1,000; the former secondary schools have been abolished, and replaced by adult schools for instruction in Arabic, rhetoric, mathematics, and history. Most of the mosques have their medresses. There are also several special preparatory schools for civil service, as the college of "the sultan's mother," inaugurated in 1850, and others. Popular education is still at a very low point, despite the reforms that have been introduced by recent sultans. The military academies are as yet the only educational establishments in which a systematic course of studies, according to the modern standard of science, is pursued. Besides these, there are a medical and a veterinary college, and a naval academy.
There is a number of public libraries, mostly connected with mosques, and some of them supposed to contain valuable old manuscripts. - Among the suburbs of Constantinople only five are frequently mentioned, viz.: Pera, Galata, Tophana, Kasim Pasha, and Scutari, all but the last named on or near the European shores opposite Stambul, between the Golden Horn and the Bosporus.
Ruins of the Aqueduct of Valens.
Pera was until the fire of 1870 the principal seat of the Christian higher classes and of the foreign ministers, and contained churches for the principal Christian denominations, several theatres and concert rooms, four hospitals (English, French, Italian, and German), three post offices (Austrian, French, and Greek), French, German, Greek, and Armenian schools, and a new French college. Gas was introduced in 1858, and telegraphic communication with London completed in the same year. Ga-lata, built by the Genoese, is still enclosed by the old Genoese wall and moat, about 8,000 ft. in circumference. In the centre of the town stands an old round tower, originally intended as a work of defence, but now only used as a watch tower. It is 140 ft. in height, and from its top the finest view of Constantinople and its vicinity can be obtained. Galata is the principal commercial suburb of Constantinople. It is incessantly thronged by a busy crowd of merchants, clerks, carriers, seamen, etc. A merchants' exchange, the customs office, and an Austrian and an English marine hospital are among the prominent buildings. Tophana derives its importance from the large government founderies, the cannon made at which are equal to the best of European manufacture.
The red and gilt Turkish clay pipes are also manufactured there on an extensive scale. Ivasim Pasha contains the great arsenal and navy yard. Scutari is situated on the opposite Asiatic coast, on the site of the ancient Chry-sopolis. An immense number of haiks (small boats) keep up the communication between it and Constantinople. A large business in silk and cotton goods, leather, etc, is carried on there. It contains a great number of khans and warehouses, also a Turkish post office, an imperial palace, and the barracks of the imperial guards. - Constantinople had greatly improved after the conflagrations of 1885 and 1866, when the greater part of Pera was again destroyed by fire, June 5, 1870. A new quarter has since sprung up near the tower of Galata, and the arsenal, which is rapidly filling up with fine buildings, bids fair to eclipse the former advantages of Pera. In place of the old wooden bridge between Stambul and Pera, there is now a new iron floating bridge; while the irksome communication between Pera and Galata, through crooked and steep streets, which made driving impossible and even riding difficult, has been superseded by a pneumatic tunnelled railway; and the great inconvenience to commerce from the absence of good landing places is to be remedied by the establishment of quays on both sides of the harbor.
Horse cars run in different parts of the city and the suburbs. The railway to Adrianople was opened in March, 1873, and other railways are in course of construction. The oriental characteristics of the city are, however, not essentially altered by these innovations. Camels, hamals (porters), ara-bas (clumsy Turkish carriages), dervishes, turbaned orientals of all descriptions, and veiled women still throng the streets as of old; the bazaars are still picturesque and bustling. The number of foreigners is however increasing, especially the English and Germans. Since the great fire of Pera the neighboring villages have gained in population, especially Therapia and Buyukdere. - Constantinople is the seat of important banking and commercial establishments, and is the great centre of Levantine commerce. In 1870 the number of arrivals was 24,055 sailing vessels, with a tonnage of 5,042,009, and 1,322 steamers, tonnage 1,322,-926; the total arrivals in 1871 were 25,686 vessels, tonnage 5,483,818. The local industry, however, is unimportant. The principal articles of manufacture are leather ware, carpets, embroideries in gold, silver, and wool, arms, perfumes, and smoking apparatus of all kinds.
In 1873 there were published in Constantinople 19 newspapers issued daily; of these 5 were in Turkish, 5 in Armenian, 4 in French, 3 in Greek, and 2 in English. Besides these there were 34 periodicals in different languages issued tri-weekly, weekly, and at longer intervals. - We have already described the origin and the history of this city down to A. D. 330, when Byzantium became Constantinople. (See Byzantium.) Afterward it was the capital of the Roman, or from 395 the Byzantine empire, and of the ephemeral Latin empire (1204-'61). In A. D. 413 an earthquake destroyed it, when it was rebuilt by Theodosius II. Its size and population under the Byzantine emperors may be judged from the fact that once, in the 8th century, 300,000 of its inhabitants fell victims to a pestilence. In the middle ages Constantinople stood a large number of sieges or assaults by Saracens, Bulgarians, Russians, Turks, and others. (See Byzantine Empire.) On May 29, 1453, it was stormed by the Turks, the last Byzantine emperor, Constantine XIII., losing his life in the defence, and since that time it has remained in their possession undisturbed.

Vacation 2013 once again took Nigel out West, and I feel it's best memorialized by a series of reviews and articles that will take at least eight months to complete due to the fact that I never have time to write anything anymore.
On second thought … forget it. Nobody wants to suffer through that again.
Vacation 2013 was another outstanding trip, similar to the 2011 version as we headed to the American Southwest. This time, however, we didn't follow Route 66, nor did we spend but a quick night in New Mexico (we did hit Santa Fe on the way home … couldn't resist the call of green chile). We spent three nights in Vegas, giving the better half a chance to see the most overdone, overpriced, and pointless place on the planet Earth for the first time (Nigel was there twice previously and is still not a fan). We spent six painful hours driving through Nebraska, got to tour the southern part of Wyoming a year after touring the northern part (not as scenic), and saw some beautiful country driving through Utah. We spent a week in the familiar confines of the greater Phoenix area, and then popped a flat tire in "No Man's Land," crossing the border from the Oklahoma panhandle into southwest Kansas. Spend nearly two hours stranded in Rolla, Kansas and another hour at a tire shop in Hugoton, Kansas, and you'll quickly appreciate life in the Midwest … at least parts of the Midwest that are actually populated.
As was the case with the two previous road trips, we brought back a haul of beer not found back home, a mix of our Western favorites as well as some new treats to sample. We may have outdone ourselves this year, as the day after popping the flat on the Kansas border, we woke up in Salina, Kansas to find our trunk wouldn't shut. The fact that we were hauling seven six-packs, six four-packs, six bombers, as well as a cooler full of assorted singles, not to mention two weeks' worth of luggage and plenty of souvenirs, surely didn't help. Fortunately a pair of needle-nose pliers got the latch back in place, and we returned to frosty Wisconsin with plenty of malted barley and hops.
One of the selections hauled home was Myrcenary Double IPA from Odell Brewing Co. Odell is based in Fort Collins, Colorado, and checked in at number 44 on the Brewers Association Top 50 Largest Breweries list for 2012, down two spots from the previous year. While overshadowed by their craft neighbor in Fort Collins, New Belgium Brewing Co. (number 8 on the list, making them essentially the fourth largest true craft brewer), Odell has made a name for themselves with a similar formula, namely hop-centric ales that are distributed to a large portion of the U.S., though still not Wisconsin.
Odell IPA is considered one of the best examples of an American IPA by many craft beer drinkers. I've had Odell IPA on numerous occasions, both out West and in neighboring Minnesota, where it's widely distributed. It's a solid version, but I've had better … I would have to classify it as somewhat overrated. Myrcenary is Odell's take on the Imperial IPA, named after myrcene, which is an essential component in hop oils that help give hoppy brews their distinct flavor and aroma. Odell claims that they brewed Myrcenary to accentuate all the characteristics that make hopheads such as Nigel salivate.
Myrcenary pours with a creamy head about a half a finger deep that slowly dissipates, leaving a noticeable lace throughout the session. A cloudy, golden brown color with little sediment, Myrcenary is not overly intimidating for an imperial IPA at first sight. By no means is that an issue; rather I enjoy the fact that it looks crisp, clean, and refreshing.
The aroma is a bit hard to decipher at first. My initial impression is that it's too acidic and slightly stale. With the senses churning, the various aromas become clearer, first with a noticeable citrus profile of orange zest and grapefruit. Some spicy notes come through next, followed by a distinct earthy undertone as well as the occasional hint of evergreen. All of these various aromas combine to create a unique scent that is not overpowering and reminds me of fresh asparagus. Yes … asparagus. Call me crazy, but I'm telling you … it's there.
Initial flavors are heavy on the hops, with noticeable bites of pine combining with more earthy, resinous hop notes to give it a well-rounded hop profile. Add in some nice balance with tropical fruit (as with the aroma, mainly zesty orange and grapefruit) and well as just a slight hint of alcohol (not surprising, as it checks in at 9.3 percent ABV) and you have a complex, yet drinkable imperial IPA. There's a malty backbone as well, which helps mute the overall bite of the hops at times and helps prevent the other flavors from becoming overwhelming. For a 9.3 percent hop behemoth, Myrcenary is surprisingly drinkable, with a smooth mouthfeel and only a slight aftertaste. The strength will quickly remind you that it's a brew to be enjoyed in small doses should you forget. That having been said, it's an imperial IPA that you could easily find yourself drinking more than one of over the course of the evening.
Myrcenary has plenty going for it, but ultimately this is a four-mugger in my book. Balanced and approachable, yet with some complex flavors and aromas, it is an excellent take on an imperial IPA and another top-notch example of a Western brewer knowing their way around a hop cone. However, it doesn't do quite enough to stand out from the crowd to hit the top rating. It's certainly worth a try for any hophead traveling west; according to their web site, Myrcenary is available year-'round and four packs can be located at most retailers that have a good selection of craft beer.

It's no secret that we are currently enjoying a crush on a veteran aquarium fish, the eight-inch yellow belly blue tang that we first spotted at Marine Designs in Suwanee, Georgia. The personality of this old aquarium fish and the unique coloration was too much to resist and the yellow belly blue tang is now swimming in quarantine with a pair of true percula clownfish.
In pictures by itself, it's hard to get a sense of how jumbo this yellow belly blue tang is – in the video, the Indian Ocean surgeonfish is in a 29 gallon quarantine tank that is 30 inches long, and the larger of the true percula clownfish is over three inches long. The show size aquarium veteran blue tang will be QTeed for a couple weeks before he gets to enjoy a nice six foot fish aquarium.
I personally only go ga-ga for really dope specimens of corals so a fish is truly something when it makes such a strong impression. The pictures and video hardly do it justice but we'll keep trying to capture and convey how special this yellow belly blue tang is. At least in the video still above you can see how the black is still very bold yet it is dissolving in the dark blue coloration that surrounds it.

DSS Diverted N4million Taken From Federal Inland Revenue Service Coffers For Our Feeding Monthly – El-Zakzaky
Leader of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria, Sheikh Ibraheem El-Zakzaky,as he described his plight in custody as well as that of his wife, and the government officials' failure to issue their passports.
The Shiite leader charged President Muhammadu Buhari's government of refusing to allow him to receive medical attention overseas despite the fact that he had toxic gunshot fragments spread all over his body.
He added that when Lai Mohammed declared millions were allocated for himself and his wife's wellbeing while in custody, he wasn't exaggerating.
The money, according to the Islamic cleric, was reportedly redirected by the DSS.
He said, "Actually, we were not given the opportunity to tell the real story while we were in detention because the people who were detaining us made things difficult for us. The real truth is that all through our detention we fed ourselves. Since the time we reached Kaduna, after we were released, nobody gave us a single bottle of water! We were feeding ourselves.
"Even during our stay in Abuja, we were feeding ourselves. But this is something that cannot be disclosed because it was illegal. Legally, they were supposed to feed us. But they didn't want anybody to hear that we were feeding ourselves. For the entire five years, seven months that we were in detention, we fed ourselves; nobody gave us a bottle of water!
"We were even paying electricity and water bills while in detention. We were paying also for the fuel to power the generator. We bought our own generator in Abuja, even when we were in detention and we were buying fuel to run it.
"He (Lai Mohammed) was actually not lying. The DSS told him so. But what I learnt was that about N4million was taken out of the FIRS coffers for our feeding every month. But that money was going to their pocket; not a single kobo was given to or spent on us. It is true that they were taking the money out of the treasury but they did not spend it on our feeding. It is a lie that they were feeding us with this money."

Ford Laumer and Mary Jane Laumer (left) and Harbert College Dean Bill Hardgrave present the Mary Jane Laumer Endowed Scholarship to Colin Elizabeth Harrang of Westminster, Md.
Even after retiring in 2005 from a faculty position he held for 33 years, former marketing professor Ford Laumer continues to positively influence Harbert College of Business students.
Laumer, who earned the Student Government Association's outstanding professor award nine times as well as the college's Lifetime Achievement Award, invests in their future through the Mary Jane Laumer Endowed Scholarship in the College of Business.
In August, the Harbert College of Business celebrated the excellence of its students and the generosity of its donors during the 2013 Scholarship Awards Ceremony and Reception at The Hotel at Auburn University & Dixon Conference Center.
The college presented 383 undergraduate scholarships and graduate fellowships totaling more than $540,000.
Laumer said that the college's scholarship recipients have good reason to be proud of their accomplishments, but that "this is not the end of the line." He touched on the fact that students' academic and professional excellence is often the product of internal drive, but that many others – parents, teachers and mentors – factor into their journey.
Harbert College Dean Bill Hardgrave thanked friends and graduates of the college for being generous in their support of students.
That thought definitely resonated with Cheryl Casey `83, Senior Vice President for Dreyfus Investments, who endowed a scholarship. She hopes to grow the Cheryl Casey Endowed Scholarship to the point of providing support for multiple Harbert College students.


This is a fairy tale like no other I have seen before. It feels like a Beauty and the Beast inspired Sci-Fi film set during the Cold War USA of the early 1960s. There is real beauty in the love story between a mute woman and a male creature that comes across as a mixture between a mermaid and robot. He also cannot talk but clearly has intelligence and feelings. The film at times becomes rather annoying when the portrayal of the US government and its personnel becomes a caricature rather than a realistic portrayal what the USA military was like during the conflict with the Soviet Union.
As an adult you walk into Beauty and the Beast not expecting suspense how the story will end. Of course the beast will get the beauty in the end! The open questions are about their journey. What challenges will the couple face before their happy ending? For me the best part of the movie had very little do with the two story itself. The makers of the film use the plot and the characters as an excuse to show off mesmerizing feats of imagination and creativity. The most stunning scene happens as the beauty (Emma Watson) takes her first dinner in the castle of the beast. She is alone. Only with the staff, who have been years transformed by curse some years ago from human beings into clocks, candle holders and walking closets. The beast is mad with fury in his quarters. We already have learned that the staff has a very strong incentive to ensure the beauty falls in love with the beast: If this happens before a rose dies the staff (and the prince who is trapped in the body of a beast) will be transformed again into their human form. But the rose has not much longer to live. I can assure you have never seen a staff figuratively and literally pulling out all the stops as in this scene. My gut feeling tells me that people behind Pixar movies had their hands in 'cooking this scene". In any case, go watch Beauty and the Beast have your iPhone ready and when this scene starts, record it on your phone. And next time when you get poor service at a restaurant, instead of complaining, ask the waiter or waitress to quickly watch this scene with you. This will give them clear ideas how you would like them to lift their service game.
Unlike in the case of Sully, I knew very little about Lala Land except that it is a musical. Lala Land feels very fresh. It resurrects the musical genre but does it in a way that our current sensibilities are not offended. The most interesting part of the film is how it vi- sually told story. I almost need to see the film one more time to put my finger on how what made it visually so appealing. It sometimes moves seamlessly between what is real and what is fiction. I enjoyed the most the the opening and closing scenes. Lala Land is fun. At times you simply want to get up in your seat and start dancing. Enjoy!

I'm happy to report that Mockingjay Part 2 feels a bit fresher and takes the plot in a somewhat different direction.

ST. LOUIS, MO—Brian Paluch, former Chief Financial Officer & Senior Vice President of PARIC Construction was indicted on three charges of mail fraud involving his scheme to use the company's corporate funds to pay his own personal expenses during the period January, 2010 through February, 2014.
According to the indictment, Paluch used the PARIC issued American Express card to pay for personal expenses, including personal travel, dining, spa charges, electronics and personal gifts for family and friends. In order to conceal his scheme, Paluch submitted false and altered financial summaries of the monthly American Express statements by deleting and altering his own personal charges. On several occasions, Paluch forged the PARIC President's signature on these false financial summaries as purported authorization for the payments. Additionally, as part of his employment at PARIC, Paluch was permitted to join the Sunset Country Club, and PARIC paid the monthly membership dues. Paluch, on behalf of PARIC entered into an agreement with Sunset for the purchase of various types of apparel and golf items containing the PARIC corporate logo. The indictment alleges that Paluch created sham and inflated Sunset Country Club invoices to pay for personal items at the club unrelated to the legitimate business of PARIC. In his position as CFO, Paluch was responsible for calculating the annual bonuses for PARIC's employees, including his own. As a further part of his scheme, Paluch inflated his base salary in calculating his own annual bonus for several years. Paluch also assisted a PARIC employee issue corporate checks to pay for the employee's daughter's private school tuition without PARIC's knowledge. Additionally, during Summer, 2011, Paluch directed the payment of $5000 in PARIC corporate funds to a St. Louis area law firm as an incentive for that law firm to hire his niece as a summer associate.
Paluch, 58, Kirkwood, Missouri, was indicted by a federal grand jury on three felony counts of mail fraud. He is expected to appear in federal court later this week.
If convicted, each count of the indictment carries a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison and/or fines up to $250,000. In determining the actual sentences, a judge is required to consider the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines, which provide recommended sentencing ranges.
This case was investigated by the Postal Inspection Service, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation. Assistant United States Attorney Hal Goldsmith is handling the case for the U.S. Attorney's Office. The victim, PARIC Construction Company provided assistance in the investigation.

On the occasion of the exhibition Bacus, the masks of the god, we can see for the first time in the Museum a figurative mosaic, unique in Baetulo, which refers to the god Bacus. The mosaic, made of white and black tiles, decorated a room of a domus located on Pujol street. This house, therefore, was close to the domus of the Dolphins and Ivy.
The mosaic, which is one of the outstanding pieces of the exhibition, was found in April 2018 during the second phase of an archaeological excavation that had begun in 2006 and which revealed an artisanal pottery settlement from the founding moment of the city (1st century BC) and part of a street (decumanus) with constructions on either side.
The decoration of the mosaic, which has been restored, refers to Bacchus, since the elements that appear there (the goat, the panther and the craters from which vine elements appear) are part of the Roman iconography tradition linked to this divinity .

Definitely blush. I mostly use bronzer in the summer when I'm more tanned, but blush I wear all year long.
Lipstick, for sure. I am not a big fan of lip gloss, probably because my hair always ends up sticking to my lips whenever I wear it lol.
I have never tried a lip butter, so I have to go with chapstick, although I've heard great things about the Revlon Lip Butters.
Matte or Shimmer Eye Shadow?
I used to LOVE matte eye shadows, but recently I've been sporting slightly shimmery shadows and have fallen in love with the look!
Gel, Liquid, Cream, or Pencil Eyeliner?
I will have to go with pencil because I cannot get the liquid liner look down for the life of me (I end up looking like a raccoon, no joke!). I've also never tried gel or cream liners.
That's a tough one! I would have to say foundation because it evens out my complexion by eliminating any redness. Obviously combining it with concealer gives the best results, but if I had to pick one I'd go with foundation.
Liquid for sure because it is full coverage. Powder on it's own just doesn't cut it for me!
Pressed! Loose shadows are just too messy, although they have amazing pigmentation.
Non waterproof, less work to remove it!
Lately I've been loving my Beauty Blender, so I have to go with sponges!
Powder, Cream, or Liquid Highlighter?
Powder since those are the only ones I own and they give great results!
Great post! Ive just posted this since i just saw it on here, kinda gave it ago and i link your one in the post i hope you dont mind? Now following!
I'll wait you on my blog dear.Have a Great Day!

Man Utd and Liverpool to field youth teams in EFL trophy next season
Manchester United and Liverpool will field their Under-21 sides in the EFL Trophy for the first time next season.
The clubs have previously refrained from taking part in the competition but the English Football League has announced that the Premier League's top six will now be fully represented.
United and Liverpool's Under-21 sides are the latest Category One Academy teams to take part, forming part of the 16 invited teams that will join the 48 League One and League Two clubs in the competition.
Involvement in the EFL Trophy will help United fill the void left by their absence from the UEFA Youth League, with the failure of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side to reach the Champions League meaning they missed out.
Nicky Butt, the club's head of academy, said: "We are looking forward to being involved in the EFL Trophy next season.
"The competition provides a range of experiences that will act as the ideal platform for the development of our homegrown talent.
"We are always looking to be innovative in order to find the best development path for our young players; the opportunity to face senior opponents will benefit them greatly."
Portsmouth won this year's EFL trophy thanks to a 5-4 penalty shoot-out victory over Sunderland after the game ended 2-2 after extra-time.

Q: Compare 2 list and append in new list using python group1 = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
group2 = [9, 8, 7, 6, 5]
a=[]
n=[]

for k in group1:

    for v in group2:

        if k == v:
            a.append(k)
            print("a=",a)
        else:
            n.append(k)
            print("n=",n)

The following output is required:
a=[5]
n=[1,2,3,4]

Please help me to get the required output, thanks!

A: The reason why your list n grows so much is that you have a double for-loop. To achieve your desired output you can just iterate through both lists at the same time using the zip function:
for k, v in zip(group1, group2):
    if k == v:
        a.append(k)
        print("a=",a)
    else:
        n.append(k)
        print("n=",n)

print(n) # [1, 2, 3, 4]
print(a) # [5]

A: Here are some approaches which all do the same in the end.
group1 = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
group2 = [9, 8, 7, 6, 5]

a=[]
n=[]

# option 1:
for value in group1:
    if value in group2:
        a.append(value)
    else:
        n.append(value)

# option 2
a = [x for x in group1 if x in group2]
n = [x for x in group1 if not x in group2]

# option 3
a = list(filter(lambda x: x in group2, group1))
n = list(filter(lambda x: x not in group2, group1))

print("a =", a)
# output: a = [5]
print("n =", n)
# output: n = [1, 2, 3, 4]

Hope this helps!
Good luck and have fun learning python!

A: do a list comprehension and use in:
a = [x for x in group1 if x in group2]
#[5]

n = [x for x in group1 if x not in group2]
#[1, 2, 3, 4]

or faster:
n = [x for x in group1 if x not in a]
#[1, 2, 3, 4]

Cyril Ramaphosa and Jacob Zuma. File photo.
President Cyril Ramaphosa and former president Jacob Zuma shared a light moment when they exchanged words about the benefits of being on pension.
Ramaphosa was speaking at a dinner at the launch of the ANC's political school, the OR Tambo School of Leadership.
Shortly after concluding his speech, Ramaphosa paused to greet Zuma at one of the tables and remarked that he looked good since going on pension.
Zuma, who celebrates his 77th birthday on Friday, replied by pointing at his belly, indicating that it had grown somewhat, drawing a big laugh from Ramaphosa.
During his speech, Ramaphosa condemned the actions of protesters - some wearing ANC T-shirts - who disrupted the launch of Pieter-Louis Myburgh's book Gangster State in Johannesburg on Tuesday night and called for books to be burnt.
Ramaphosa called these actions "strange to our movement".
"What we witnessed earlier this week is not what the ANC stands for," he said.

Nemesia linearis, also known as the witleeubekkie in Afrikaans (translates roughly to white lion mouth), is a species of plant from southern Africa. It is found in South Africa and Namibia.

Description
This annual grows  tall. It has an unpleasant fetid smell. The ridged stems are erect and tufted at the base. They may be simple or may branch at the base. The leaves either grow directly on the stems or grow on short stalks. They are linear or lance-shaped. The lower leaves have toothed margins while upper leaves have entire margins.

Plants produce inflorescences made up of many flowers between August and January. They are grouped in loose corymbs and have dot-like hairs on the bracts, stalk and calyx. The bracts are lance-shaped and lack teeth.The corolla is white, although it may be tinted in mauve with pink or purple veins. The entrance to the tube is yellow and has a biconvex shape. The conical spur is up to  long.

The fruit is an oblong capsule that narrows very slightly towards the tip. The base and upper margin are rounded. It has no horns.

Distribution and habitat
Nemesia linearis is endemic to South Africa and Namibia. In South Africa it grows in the Eastern Cape, Northern Cape, Western Cape and Free State provinces. This plant prefers dry habitats. It grows in well-drained sandy or gravelly soil, often in streambeds. It grows in open areas where it will not be shaded by rocks or other plants.

These days, there is a regularly expanding movement of individuals to urban ranges. Social insurance benefit is a standout amongst the most difficult perspectives that is extraordinarily influenced by the immense convergence of individuals to downtown areas. Subsequently, urban areas around the globe are putting vigorously in advanced change with an end goal to give more beneficial environments to individuals. In such a change, great homes are being furnished with brilliant gadgets (e.g., shrewd meters, sensors, et cetera), which create huge volumes of fine-grained and indexical information that can be broke down to help savvy city administrations.
In this paper, we propose a model that uses savvy home enormous information as a method for learning and finding human action designs for social insurance applications. We propose the utilization of continuous example mining, bunch investigation, and expectation to gauge and dissect vitality use changes started by inhabitants' conduct. Since individuals' propensities are for the most part distinguished by regular schedules, finding these schedules enables us to perceive odd exercises that may demonstrate individuals' troubles in taking look after themselves, for example, not planning sustenance or not utilizing a shower/shower. This paper delivers the need to investigate fleeting vitality utilization designs at the apparatus level, which is specifically identified with human exercises. For the assessment of the proposed component, this paper utilizes the U.K. Residential Appliance Level Electricity informational index time arrangement information of energy utilization gathered from 2012 to 2015 with the time determination of 6 s for five houses with 109 machines from Southern England.
The information from savvy meters are recursively mined in the quantum/information cut of 24 h, and the outcomes are kept up crosswise over progressive mining works out. The aftereffects of distinguishing human movement designs from machine utilization are exhibited in detail in this paper alongside the precision of short and long-haul forecasts.

Квадратная академическая шапочка () — головной убор, состоящий из квадратной горизонтальной доски, закреплённой на ермолке, и прикреплённой к её центру кисточки.

Этот головной убор вместе с мантией и иногда капюшоном составляет торжественное одеяние преподавателей и выпускников (студентов) высших учебных заведений во многих государствах и странах, следующих британской модели образования.

Название
В английском языке за этим головным убором закрепились названия ,  («оксфордская», по названию университета),  (из-за схожести с доской —  — используемой каменщиками для держания извести — ). В Великобритании и США в сочетании с мантией называется . В Австралии этот головной убор называют квадратной (), «траншейной» () или угловатой () шапочкой. Прилагательное «академическая» тоже используется.

В XVI—XVII веках её называли , «угловатой шапочкой» ( в Марпрелейтских трактатах).

В русском языке используется название «квадратная академическая шапочка», магистерская шапочка, иногда бонет ( «шапка, шапочка») или название другого головного убора похожей формы — конфедератки.

Происхождение
Полагают, что академическая шапочка произошла от биретты, шляпы похожей формы, которую носило католическое духовенство. В свою очередь, биретту возводят к древнеримской pileus quadratus, напоминавшей ермолку с квадратом. Она вернулась в виде шапочки епископа Ланселота Эндрюса () и связывается теперь также с его именем.

Итальянское слово  происходит от , возводимого к словам  и , обозначавшим красный цвет. Красные (реже чёрные) конические беретты, родственные древним тутулусам этрусков и пилеусам римлян, использовались в XIV и XV столетиях как знак учёных, студентов, людей искусства, а также обучающейся и цветущей юности. Форма и цвет обладали значением: красный долго считался символом королевского могущества, вероятно, из-за сложности добычи красителя или цвета крови, обладавшего большим символическим значением жизни и смерти — и означавшего власть над жизнью и смертью.

Не случайно капо (капитаны наёмников Ренессанса) часто изображаются в красной шапочке. К концу XV столетия её носил и цвет итальянской знати — как символ их военного и гражданского могущества над городами. В это время Европа менялась под итальянским влиянием.

Возможно, на академическую шапочку оказали влияние и традиции мусульманских медресе. По слухам, выпускники носили ермолку с закреплённым на ней Кораном.

Первоначально академическая шапочка предназначалась для обладателей магистерской степени (высшей в средневековых академиях), но позже была приспособлена и для бакалавров, и для студентов.

Варианты

Доктора в некоторых университетах носят академические шапочки, хотя в Великобритании больше распространены тюдоровские боннеты. 4-, 6- или 8-клинный тэм пользуется популярностью в США, и мягкий квадрат тэма — преимущественно как женская замена жёсткого квадрата традиционного головного убора.

В США академическая шапочка носится также учащимися средней школы во время получения дипломов.

В Финляндии и Швеции аналогом квадратной шапочки является докторская шляпа-цилиндр.

Кисточка—лирипип

В выпускной церемонии США может иметь важное значение сторона, на которую свешивается кисточка: иногда после получения диплома она перебрасывается с правой стороны на левую.

В средней школе кисточка обычно имеет или основной цвет школы, или сочетает этот цвет с тремя. Иногда в знак отличия кисточка имеет особый цвет (например, золотой) и носится с почётной надписью на латыни (например, ).

Университеты США могут использовать кисточки чёрного цвета или цвета школы, обычно для высоких степеней.

Для степени бакалавра кисточка может быть окрашена отлично от традиционного черного или школьного цвета для представления области, в которой носитель получил образование. В 1896 году большинство колледжей и университетов в США приняли единый кодекс академической одежды. Кисточка может быть украшена брелоком в форме цифр года выпуска.

Строго говоря, ACE постановил, что «кисточка должна быть чёрной или по цвету дисциплины», за исключением лишь золотой кисточки — зарезервированной для носителей докторской мантии в вельветовом головном уборе. Только одна кисточка надевается за один раз.

В школах, где выпускные регалии берутся студентами в аренду или заимствуются, кисточка может быть частью аренды или предоставляться отдельно. Некоторые школы, не предоставляющие кисточек выпускникам, могут предложить их как сувенир отдельно от регалий.

В Великобритании кисточка имеет меньшую длину и крепится к доске кнопкой. В США она длиннее, крепится к кнопке шнуром.

В Кембридже по старой традиции выпускники обрезают свои кисточки очень коротко, так, чтобы они не выходили за край доски. После церемонии они носят академическую шапочку с кисточкой нормальной длины. Однако эта традиция очень редко соблюдается из-за ослабления требования носить шапочку и мантию.

Традиции ношения

Как обычно с головными уборами, мужчины не носят академические шапочки в помещении (не считая канцлера и других высокопоставленных чиновников), но обычно всё же надевают их. На некоторых выпускных церемониях шапочки надевают только женщины, либо от этого и вовсе отказываются. Это породило городские легенды в ряде университетов Великобритании и Ирландии, что ношение шапочек было прекращено как протест против принятия женщин в университеты. Эту байку рассказывают в Кембриджском, Даремском, Бристольском и многих других университетах. В ирландских университетах — в частности, в Лимерике, — ходят слухи, что шапочка обозначает присвоение степени для выпускниц.

Производится несколько типов шапочек. Наиболее распространена в Великобритании мягкая шапочка, в которой головную часть можно сложить для более удобных переноски и хранения. Но традиционно шапочка жёсткая, что считается эстетичнее и предпочтительнее, чем мягкая. Жёсткую шапочку проще  надевать. Оба типа должны подходить носителю по размеру. В США шапочки часто делаются эластичными в «черепной» части, чтобы не затрудняться с поиском подходящего размера. Некоторые шапочки — особенно в Восточной Азии — шнуруются сзади.

Академическую шапочку полагается носить обращённой большей частью назад; доска должна быть параллельна земле. Правильно надетая шапочка не должна легко сваливаться.

До второй половины XX в. эту шапочку часто носили школьные учителя, и она стала символом профессии учителя.

Шапочки часто можно увидеть в США в мае и июне в магазинах для вечеринок, когда они появляются в качестве украшений памятных подарков вроде плюшевых медвежат, и на поздравительных открытках.

Траурная шапочка

Есть версия шапочки, которую носят во время траура. Вместо кисточки и кнопки доску крест-накрест пересекают две широкие чёрные шёлковые ленты. В центре прикрепляется чёрная ленточная розетка, шёлковая или атласная. Эту шапочку можно носить в знак траура по другу или члену семьи.

Другая версия из девяти лент, называемых «бабочками», прикрепляется дополнительно сзади ермолки. Её носят во время траура по монарху, члену королевской семьи или канцлеру университета.

Траурная шапочка носится с траурными лентами и траурной мантией. Капюшон не надевается, так как считается частью праздничной одежды.

A Service Guarantee is a warranty, not an insurance policy. The Service Guarantee period will commence on the theft report date and will end after 60 days. Providing customers meet all eligibility criteria, they will receive an email including a Submission Form after the Service Guarantee period. This form, along with any other requested documentation, must be returned to Absolute Software and payment will be made within 30 days of receipt.
I've been declined for the Service Guarantee, can I transfer my license?
Yes, however, the process of transferring a license from one device to another requires the license to be removed / uninstalled from the current device so that it can be installed on your new device. To do this, we must close your existing Theft Report. If you wish to transfer your license please contact Global Support.
If Data Delete is applied on the stolen device the Service Guarantee is still in effect. Once the device connects to the internet and Data Delete launches (starts deleting data from your hard drive) the Service Guarantee is then void.
This is a new component within EUSA 4.0. It allows us to shorten the window of disruption to our customers and provide them with a Service Guarantee payment quickly so they can obtain a replacement device.
