Vancouver Sun: Harsh Realm
8:17 a.m. Burly, bearded assistant director Vladimir (Val) Stefoff squints into the early morning sun, takes one look at a mockup of a bombed-out church near Cordova and Abbott streets and yells, Robin Williams-style: "Good mooorning, Vancooouver!"
9:03 a.m. A lighting technician asks cinematographer Joel Ransom if one of his colleagues is qualified to pull off a tricky camera move. Ransom: "If he knows the difference between four feet and five feet, then he can do the job."
10:17 a.m. A studious-looking extra, dressed in a tattered, torn grey longcoat in his role as a Sarajevo refugee, is reading The Magician's Nephew by C.S. Lewis while waiting for his scene to be shot. I later mention this to Harsh Realm writer-producer Chris Carter. "One of the things you learn quickly in this business," he says, with a wry smile, "is that extras will do anything to get noticed."
10:23 a.m. "I hate the sunshine," key grip Al Campbell says, casting a sour look at the uncharacteristically clear sky. The crew anticipated rain; now they will have to fake a cloudy sky in case it rains the next day.
2:10 p.m. Props assistant Ina Brooks wanders around the set with a plastic bag filled with earplugs while armourer Rob Fournier unpacks a crate of M16s. "For my protection and your protection," Brooks intones loudly while handing out the plugs. Most of the crew take her up on her offer.
2:12 p.m. How can people communicate with each other if they have plugs stuck in their ears? Ransom: "We just kind of make it up as we go along."
2:41 p.m. I pick up a prop M16 and feel the cheap, plastic workmanship where one would expect metal. I imagine real M16s are much heavier, I tell Fournier. "That is a real one," he replies.
3:41 p.m. Joanne Service, Carter's assistant in Vancouver for five years before leaving with the departure of The X-Files, blocks her ears for an upcoming shot. "Has it happened yet?" she asks plaintively, and uncovers her ears. The quiet is instantly shattered by a hail of gunfire.
4:10 p.m. Gaffer Richard (Bucky) Buckmaster proudly shows off his three-month-old son to an admiring crew. "Good thing it looks like him," Campbell says. "I wonder when he had the time to do that?" "Too many hour lunches," Carter replies.
5:03 p.m. A woman's voice, seemingly disconnected, heard above the noise: "I'm getting a headache from all this gunfire."
5:17 p.m. A props assistant spills a bag of Cheezies all over the street and sheepishly scoops them up, one by one.
"Yeah, spill Cheesy Poofs all over a Sarajevo street, why don't you?" another technician says, witnessing the scene. "That'll look real good in continuity."
5:46 p.m. "We're losing the light," co-executive producer Tony To announces. By now, everybody is too tired — and too cold — to block their ears against the gunfire.
7:10 p.m. "I lose the kids at 7:30," To tells director Daniel Sackheim, referring to an industry rule that says young actors can work no later than that hour. "We wrap at 7:30."
8:45 p.m. Shooting wraps.
7:08 a.m. The day dawns pissing with rain, a biting wind blowing hard from the east. Production manager George Grieve folds his arms and regards the sky unhappily. "It could be worse," he says.
8:19 a.m. Sackheim calls for a gunfire test. Muzzle flashes and gunshots erupt from the Downtown Parking Centre parkade on Cordova, echoing off the surrounding buildings. Ungurait looks up from her notes happily. "Good mooorning, Vancooouver!" she yells.
8:26 a.m. Sackheim wants to make the Sarajevo street set look more realistic. "How about a dead dog with flies buzzing around it?" he says.
"How about a two-legged dog with flies?" Ungurait adds. "How about one dead American director?" To says.
8:35 a.m. "How do you take your coffee?" a production assistant asks Sackheim. "With cyanide," To interjects.
10:41 a.m. Between setups, To tells anybody who will listen an old show-business joke. "There's this movie package being put together in heaven that's going to be the greatest movie ever made, see?" he says. "The pitch from the top goes something like this: Will Shakespeare is going to write the script. Michelangelo is our designer. We've got Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart for the music. Perfect. So far, the best movie ever. There's just one other thing, by the way: God has a girlfriend who can sing."
11:17 a.m. Sackheim calls a crew meeting. "Group hug!" Stefoff shouts. "Group hug!"
8:03 p.m. As the Oscars drone on, Harsh Realm cast-member Max Martini, who appeared in Saving Private Ryan as Matt Damon's squad commander, is engaged in a spirited contest of wills with Ungurait, who is rooting for her own favourite, Shakespeare in Love.
Martini is suffering the barbs of the crew over being trapped in the basement of the old Woodward's building in a pool of cold, brackish water and mud while his Private Ryan compadres are dolled up in tuxes and tails for the evening, with a night of serious Oscar partying to look forward to.
Ungurait has managed to tune a weak, snow-impaired signal from CTV on her video monitor and the crew is giving Martini a running commentary of the evening's events. Martini breaks up the crew with his sarcastic rendition of a typical Gwyneth Paltrow acceptance speech — plenty of sobbing and clutching the chest — but Ungurait gets the last laugh when Paltrow cops the Oscar for best actress.
Martini briefly gets his own back when Spielberg wins the best director award, but Ungurait is appropriately thrilled when Shakespeare in Love does the unthinkable and tops Ryan for best picture.
9:41 p.m. Shooting wraps to a round of applause and spontaneous hugging. Sackheim: "Thanks for a great week, everybody."

Scathach is a Teulu Hero character encountered in the second part of The Banner Saga.
A duty-bound trader dedicated to his herd, Scathach is more trusting of strangers than the majority of his kind. While most humans think of horseborn as a myth, Scathach has interacted with the Kragsmen of the southern bogs often enough to temper his fear.
The Horseborn Teulu charges forward and tramples an enemy, then attacks from behind. The enemy target suffers regular Strength damage during the charge, is subesequently struck for 1 Strength per tile the Teulu moved before the trample, and is left Concussed, suffering 20% miss-chance on his next (regular) Attack.
When promoted to Rank 6, Scathach gains the primary active of Ro'Ech, Mule Kick.
The Horseborn Teulu delivers a devastating kick with his powerful horse's legs, dealing (Armor) Break damage to the target, sending him flying across the battlefield and leaving him Stunned when he lands. Any other unit unfortunate enough to be in the path of the flying enemy suffers a violent hit as well, taking 1 Strength damage. Be careful who is in the Knockback path!
Scathach joins the Skogr caravan in Chapter 10, when the Horseborn are first met near Lundar.
There is no event leading to Scathach's departure.
Trample increases both the range and the damage output of the Teulu's Attack: at Ranks 1/2/3 it effectively adds +2/3/4 to both range and damage.
As with Derdriu, Scathach is the name of an Irish mythological figure.

Q: Ao modificar um dado antes de enviar para a Query ele atualiza a tabela Estou fazendo uma query select com o spring + hibernate,
Query query = em.createNativeQuery(sqlBase);

Eu estou passando para o 'sqlBase' uma Empresa como parametro,
SELECT e.* FROM Empresa e WHERE e.id = :empresa

Nessa empresa eu modifico alguns dados antes de passar para essa consulta, troco um dado do objeto EMPRESA, quando eu envio para a Query ele acaba ATUALIZANDO esse dado que eu modifiquei.

A: Olá,
O que provavelmente está acontecendo é o seguinte:
Você tem o objeto Empresa e ele está na sessão do Hibernate. Assim que você modificar esse objeto e realizar um flush(), os dados serão atualizados.
Então, o que está ocorrendo e que ao realizar uma nativeQuery, o Hibernate provavelmente está realizando esse flush.
Possíveis soluções:
1) Você pode obter a instância da Empresa de forma apenas leitura.
@Transactional(readOnly = true)

2) Você pode modificar essa nativeQuery para ser uma query HQL, e isso talvez resolva se não for chamado nenhum flush ou save da sessão do Hibernate.
Recomendo fortemente a utilizar a primeira caso não tenha interesse em alterar a entidade.

As a Christian should I be suspicious or supportive of government?
Are laws and government a gift from God? Or do they usually represent a threat to human freedom?
Some Christians place great confidence in the role of government, believing that through good legislation society can be transformed. Others are more nervous, being concerned about the consequences of secular laws for freedom of religion and Christian values.
What then is God's view of government? What is its proper role and what are its limits? And what are the implications for us as lawyers engaged in the administration of justice?
In this short video, David McIlroy, experienced barrister and Head of Forum Chambers, explores with us the biblical mandate given to government and how it should affect the way we view our day-to-day work as lawyers.

Trump Got The Shutdown He Wanted But Doesn't Seem To Have A Plan To End It
WASHINGTON ― President Donald Trump remained hunkered down in the White House on Thursday, firing off angry missives about a government shutdown he once proudly claimed to own but now seems unable to end.
"Have the Democrats finally realized that we desperately need Border Security and a Wall on the Southern Border," Trump wrote on the sixth day of the partial shuttering of about 25 percent of the federal government over his fight to fund a border wall. It was the first day that would have been a normal workday for most affected employees.
"Democrat's say they don't want the Wall (even though they know it is really needed), and they don't want ICE," he wrote later. "They don't have much to campaign on, do they? An Open Southern Border and the large scale crime that comes with such stupidity!"
Trump has not spoken to the Democratic leader in either chamber of Congress in recent days. Discussions have continued at the staff level, but Democrats said the problem remains that Trump himself does not seem to know what exactly he wants.
"He does not appear to have a clear endgame in sight," one senior Democratic aide said on condition of anonymity.
Trump's White House had indicated he would sign a short-term spending bill to keep the government open through Feb. 8, but then Trump changed his mind after TV and radio hosts criticized him for caving on his campaign promise to build a wall along the Mexican border.
Actually, Trump had claimed he would force Mexico to pay for such a wall, but he abandoned that part of the promise almost immediately upon taking office. He persuaded House leaders to insert $5.7 billion in unspecified border security money into the short-term spending extension that the Senate had already passed unanimously. But not even a majority of the Senate voted for the revised version of that bill last week, let alone the 60 votes it would need for passage.
Both the House and Senate held brief procedural sessions Thursday, but almost no lawmakers were in town. Similar procedural sessions were set for Monday, New Year's Eve, but the most likely scenario seemed to be that the whole issue would be put off until Jan. 3, when the new Congress is seated with Democrats taking control of the House.
Nine Cabinet agencies, including the departments of homeland security, justice, state and interior, ran out of funding at midnight Dec. 21, leaving hundreds of thousands of federal employees uncertain if they would get scheduled paychecks in mid-January.
In a Dec. 11 Oval Office meeting with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, Trump said he would be "proud to shut down the government for border security" if Democrats refused to agree to billions of additional dollars for his wall. Ever since that point, though, Trump has reversed tactics and is blaming Democrats ― even taking that message to U.S. troops in Iraq.
"You're fighting for borders in other countries, and they don't want to fight ― the Democrats ― for the border of our country. It doesn't make a lot of sense," Trump told service members Wednesday at Al-Asad Air Base on his first visit to a combat zone since taking office.
"The president turned his first visit to our troops into another cringe-worthy Donald Trump reality show special," said Drew Hammill, a Pelosi aide. "With the House majority, Democrats will act swiftly to end the Trump shutdown and will fight for a strategic, robust national security policy, including strong and smart border security, and strong support for our service members and veterans."
White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said Trump has already sacrificed to reach a deal to end the shutdown but that Democrats are uninterested. "The president and his team stayed in Washington over Christmas hoping to negotiate a deal that would stop the dangerous crisis on the border, protect American communities and reopen the government," Sanders said. "The president does not want the government to remain shut down, but he will not sign a proposal that does not first prioritize our county's safety and security."

Trump had originally planned to fly down to his resort in Palm Beach, Florida, on Dec. 21 after signing the short-term extension. The ongoing shutdown, though, could make it politically difficult for Trump to salvage even a portion of his planned 16-day golfing vacation.
Among the agencies whose employees are either working as "essential" or have been furloughed is the Secret Service. If Trump chooses to go to Mar-a-Lago and his nearby golf course in West Palm Beach, he will create the public relations disaster the White House had hoped to avoid: Trump playing golf while the Secret Service protecting him don't know if they'll get their next paycheck.

Jazz and Identity: Comment on Lydon's Iyer Interview
My reactions to @RadioOpenSource interview with Vijay Iyer.
Radio Open Source » Blog Archive » Vijay Iyer's Life in Music: "Striving is the Back Story…".
Sounds like it will be a while before the United States becomes a truly post-racial society.
Iyer can define himself as American and he can even one-up other US citizens in Americanness, but he's still defined by his having "a Brahmin Indian name and heritage, and a Yale degree in physics."
Something by which I was taken aback, at IU Bloomington ten years ago, is the fact that those who were considered to be "of color" (as if colour were the factor!) were expected to mostly talk about their "race" whereas those who were considered "white" were expected to remain silent when notions of "race" and ethnicity came up for discussion. Granted, ethnicity and "race" were frequently discussed, so it was possible to hear the voices of those "of color" on a semi-regular basis. Still, part of my culture shock while living in the MidWest was the conspicuous silence of students with brilliant ideas who happened to be considered African-American.
Something similar happened with gender, on occasion, in that women were strongly encouraged to speak out…when a gender angle was needed. Thankfully, some of these women (at least, among those whose "racial" identity was perceived as neutral) did speak up, regardless of topic. But there was still an expectation that when they did, their perspective was intimately gendered.
Of course, some gender lines were blurred: the gender ratio among faculty members was relatively balanced (probably more women than men), the chair of the department was a woman for a time, and one department secretary was a man. But women's behaviours were frequently interpreted in a gender-specific way, while men were often treated as almost genderless. Male privilege manifested itself in the fact that it was apparently difficult for women not to be gender-conscious.
Those of us who were "international students" had the possibility to decide when our identities were germane to the discussion. At least, I was able to push my «différence» when I so pleased, often by becoming the token Francophone in discussions about Francophone scholars, yet being able not to play the "Frenchie card" when I didn't find it necessary. At the same time, my behaviour may have been deemed brash and a fellow student teased me by calling me "Mr. Snottyhead." As an instructor later told me, "it's just that, since you're Canadian, we didn't expect you to be so different." (My response: "I know some Canadians who would despise that comment. But since I'm Québécois, it doesn't matter.") This was in reference to a seminar with twenty students, including seven "internationals": one Zimbabwean, one Swiss-German, two Koreans, one Japanese, one Kenyan, and one "Québécois of Swiss heritage." In this same graduate seminar, the instructor expected everyone to know of Johnny Appleseed and of John Denver.
Again, a culture shock. Especially for someone coming from a context in which the ethnic identity of the majority is frequently discussed and in which cultural identity is often "achieved" instead of being ascribed. This isn't to say that Quebec society is devoid of similar issues. Everybody knows, Quebec has more than its fair share of identity-based problems. The fact of the matter is, Quebec society is entangled in all sorts of complex identity issues, and for many of those, Quebec may appear underprepared. The point is precisely that, in Quebec, identity politics is a matter for everyone. Nobody has the luxury to treat their identity as "neutral."
Going back to Iyer… It's remarkable that his thoughtful comments on Jazz end up associated more with his background than with his overall approach. As if what he had to say were of a different kind than those from Roy Hayes or Robin Kelley. As if Iyer had more in common with Koo Nimo than with, say, Sonny Rollins. Given Lydon's journalistic background, it's probably significant that the Iyer conversation carried the "Life in Music" name of the show's music biography series yet got "filed under" the show's "Year of India" series. I kid you not.
And this is what we hear at the end of each episode's intro:
This is Open Source, from the Watson Institute at Brown University. An American conversation with Global attitude, we call it.
Guess the "American" part was taken by Jazz itself, so Iyer was assigned the "Global" one. Kind of wishing the roles were reversed, though Iyer had rehearsed his part.
But enough symbolic interactionism. For now.
During Lydon's interview with Iyer, I kept being reminded of a conversation (in Brookline) with fellow Canadian-ethnomusicologist-and-Jazz-musician Tanya Kalmanovitch. Kalmanovitch had fantastic insight to share on identity politics at play through the international (yet not post-national) Jazz scene. In fact, methinks she'd make a great Open Source guest. She lives in Brooklyn but works as assistant chair of contemporary improv at NEC, in B-Town, so Lydon could probably meet her locally.
In some ways, Jazz is more racialized and ethnicized now than it was when Howie Becker published Outsiders. (hey, I did hint symbolic interactionism'd be back!). It's also very national, gendered, compartmentalized… In a word: modern. Of course, Jazz (or something like it) shall play a role in postmodernity. But only if it sheds itself of its modernist trappings. We should hear out Kevin Mahogany's (swung) comments about a popular misconception:
Some cats work from nine to five
Change their life for line of jive
Never had foresight to see
Where the changes had to be
Thought that they had heard the word
Thought it all died after Bird
But we're still swingin'
The following anecdote seems à propos.
Branford Marsalis quartet on stage outside at the Indy Jazz Fest 1999. Some dude in the audience starts heckling the band: "Play something we know!" Marsalis, not losing his cool, engaged the heckler in a conversation on Jazz history, pushing the envelope, playing the way you want to play, and expected behaviour during shows. Though the audience sounded divided when Marsalis advised the heckler to go to Chaka Khan's show on the next stage over, if that was more to the heckler's liking, there wasn't a major shift in the crowd and, hopefully, most people understood how respectful Marsalis's comments really were. What was especially precious is when Marsalis asked the heckler: "We're cool, man?"
It's nothing personal.

Lydon at His Best
By definition, my reaction is subjective. So it might just be the fact that it's a sunny day or that Life Is Good®, as my water bottle and diner mug say.
Yet there's something about the April 17 episode of the Radio Open Source (ROS) podcast with Christopher Lydon which works for me.
Maybe I was just charmed by the introduction as it played with my expectations. But there's clearly more to my enthusiasm for Lydon's interviewing style in that specific episode than the mere enjoyment of being fooled. My initial excitement abated a bit as the show progressed and Lydon went back to his I-show mode (which I mentioned before and warned students about). This decrease in excitement strengthens my notion that Lydon was, surprisingly enough, letting participants speak in earlier portions of the show.
In fact, Lydon did something he rarely does, during the first part of this episode: he proposed a topic and let one of his guests respond without even asking a question. Sometimes, Lydon will string together a long series of questions to which the interviewee cannot really respond. In the way I was enculturated, these strings of questions are markers of close-mindedness so I have a hard time understanding why Lydon would produce them.
In fact, I would seriously like to do some conversation analysis of Lydon's interviewing style. For instance, how long (in seconds) are his questions as compared to his guests' comments? Is there a difference when the guest is perceived to have a higher status, in which case Lydon might go into "deference mode?" Is my perception accurate, that Lydon speaks differently to women and men? (In my observations, ROS seems to mostly have women as guests when gender is admittedly the focus.) Are there cues in Lydon's speech patterns which reveal what he might be thinking about his guests? Is Lydon typical of "Old Media" radio shows even though he entered the "Web 2.0 landscape" with ROS?
What ticked me off, originally, was Lydon's tendency to cut his guests in a very cavalier manner and his habit of emphasising distinctions based on perceived prestige. These issues are less problematic to me during some shows, but they still do tick me off fairly frequently. Lydon's respect, contrary to mine, seems quite selective.
Why do I care so much about Lydon's style, you ask? Why do I ever listen to the show if it makes me react so strongly? A number of reasons.
Radio Open Source is one of the first few podcasts to which I subscribed when iTunes began podcast support. Although I've unsubscribed to many other podcasts, this is a podcast which became part of my habits. I know several people who watch shows they don't like so that they can complain about it. It might be the case for my listening to Open Source. Although, I would really prefer it if I were not to complain (I hate myself every time I do). My "problem" is that ROS often has insightful guests, frequently tackles fascinating issues, and represents the cultural specificity of a small segment of U.S. society with which I happen to relate on a fairly regular basis. In fact, ROS often provokes thoughts in me which lead to my own insight about U.S. society specifically or, on occasion, about post-industrial societies in general. And the often insightful blog comments, gatekept by the very thoughtful "blogger in chief" Brendan Greeley, occasionally make their way into the program, which evokes a type of polyvocality that is rare in Old Media (but required in the "Web 2.0 movement"). (Unfortunately, Greeley is apparently leaving the show, on which occasion I might start listening to another Greeley show if it's podcast.)
So I probably won't stop listening to ROS for a while. Can't avert my ear.
Why do I tease Lydon so much? Well, as we say in French, «qui aime bien, châtie bien» or "I keed because I like." People from the United States, especially those who claim European-American ancestry and respond rather well to the Judeo-Christian liberal model, tend to avoid conflict at all cost. It might be the main reason why, though some members of the ROS staff have contacted me after reading some of my blog posts about the show, I get this feeling that my perspective on the show is falling on deaf ears. It's not that they don't want to hear criticisms and critiques of the show, it's just that my voluntarily confrontational style might clash with their own styles. If anyone on the ROS staff reads this: sorry, nothing personal!
So, do I write those posts just to be mean? Not really. But I do like challenging preconceived notions about the skills of people in positions of power. In other words, I tease Christopher Lydon because I know he can handle it. He apparently has a fairly high status within "PRI culture" (which is possibly similar to the "BBC culture" described by Georgina Born). And, to be honest, he sounds self-assured enough (notice I didn't say "cocky" or "arrogant") to dismiss this type of nagging offhandedly.
So, Lydon is the journalist I enjoy teasing.
Hey, it is some people's idea of fun!

Demjanjuk's Quiet Exit
By Jewish Week Editors	March 20, 2012, 12:00 am Edit
More than 30 years after he was stripped of his United States citizenship and first charged with Nazi war crimes, John Demjanjuk died in his sleep last weekend in a nursing home in Germany at the age of 91, stateless. His legacy remains in limbo because his conviction last year for serving as a guard at the Nazi death camp of Sobibor, in Poland, was being appealed.
Over the years, and in trials in Israel and Germany, Demjanjuk's case underscored the difficulty of reaching a clear-cut ruling on events that happened in traumatic war times decades earlier, based on the testimony and memory of victims ravaged by age.
Demjanjuk, who came to the U.S. after World War II and was an autoworker in Cleveland, maintained that he was the victim of mistaken identity. Others insisted he was a guard who collaborated in the deaths of nearly 28,000 people at Sobibor. Stripped of his citizenship here, he was deported to Israel where in 1988 he was convicted of being the infamous and sadistic "Ivan the Terrible," who murdered thousands. But the Israeli Supreme Court ruled five years later that he was not Ivan the Terrible, and he was released.
He resettled in the U.S., and became a citizen again. But new charges were brought, and he was deported to Germany in 2009. He was found guilty two years later in a Munich courtroom.
Demjanjuk's son, John Jr., described his father this week as "both a victim and a survivor of Soviet and German brutality from childhood 'til death."
But Efraim Zuroff, who heads the Simon Wiesenthal Center in Jerusalem, said Demjanjuk "died guilty of his service in the Sobibor death camp, and that is how he should be remembered — not as a person falsely accused but as an individual who volunteered to serve in the SS, and who at the height of his physical powers spent months helping to mass murder innocent Jews deported to that camp."
Some believe the Munich trial may be the last of the major war crimes in Germany, which began in Nuremberg in 1945.
The words of Justice Meir Shamgar of the Israeli Supreme Court, on overturning Demjanjuk's conviction in 2003, are fitting at this time. "This was the proper course for judges who cannot examine the heart and the mind, but have only what their eyes see and read," he wrote. "The matter is closed — but not complete. The complete truth is not the prerogative of the human judge."
Demjanjuk


The past 14 months have proven to be a particularly exciting time for Ultra Deep Solutions, developing the biggest construction DP3 deep-diving vessel in the world and a project that will put the Company on the map as the go-to in the industry. The vessel will have the capability to conduct dives up to 600 meters - the first of its kind - with research still ongoing, many exciting developments are being made to the technologies used within Ultra Deep's ship.
Ultra Deep Solutions is becoming particularly well known for its ability to build state-of-the-art DP3s, the original aim being to grow the businesses reputation in the industry through the creation of these vessels.
Alongside this new-found reputation are the core competencies of the Company, with specific divisions to cover all aspects of the market, such as subsea diving, offshore construction and ship building - the area in which Jithu Sukumaran is in charge.
The Company's core consultancy is of course ship building, involved in five vessels now and providing clients with subsea support services and a range of activities including reaching offshore installation and construction inspection of maintenance for existing pipeline facilities.
Founded in 2014, the Ultra Deep solutions has come a very long way over the course of just three years, now with multiple vessel launches on the horizon including DP3 Van Gogh in April 2018,Andy Warhol in July 2018 and Mattisee in 2019.
The Company was very lucky to have a creator Mr.Sheldon Hutton, who with him brought few talented young minds for the development of the company. With his support, Ultra Deep Solutions has been able to tap into the best possible technology available, also working with world renowned partners such as MAN Germany, KONGSBERG NORWAY, ROLLSROYCE NORWAY, MCGREGOR, and reputed designers from Norway.
Sukumaran describes: "Van Gogh has been designed according to the class notation of achieving a clean design, alongside SPS codes and the pivotal importance placed on achieving a low fuel consumption, subsequently reducing emissions for the environment and focusing on the clean environment and technology.
Additionally, the ship will be arranged with twin work ROV with Active Heave LARS available in the hangar, while it will also be able to perform the field support duties expected of a subsea construction vessel that is available for deployment worldwide.
Similarly Andy Warhol, the Company's state-of-the-art diving and construction vessel, which was designed to meet the specific needs of the offshore market, firefighting capabilities and also using extremely efficient azimuth thrusters and a system for dynamic positioning.
In order to continuously carry out such high standards of work in the industry, Ultra Deep Solutions ensures that it is hiring experienced people to fill the highly-skilled roles.
As Ultra Deep Solutions is based in Singapore, a large proportion of its staff are Singaporean, with foreign talent brought in for the particularly specialised jobs from all over the world. Staffing of the vessels does slightly vary, mostly dependant on where the ship itself will be based.

What exact error did you get ?


I have added a brief footnote to the recent post, now titled A Study in Contrasts.
I have also softened the imagery of my moose hunt, as my slang reference to the moose's possible demise was troubling me.
The physical reality of killing another creature — which of course is the intended end result of good hunting — is troubling me lately, and I was trying not to mince words, and perhaps also trying a little too hard to shake people up. I will try to be a little less off-the-cuff.
This blog world is a strange one and if I offended anyone I apologize. Not my intent.
Amazing contrasts Sad thing is, they stop being striking as a person gets along in their life. Used to be, coming out of the woods, even into the relative calm of Ely Minnesota, even from a relatively short outing like a Lynx Track 7-day trip, I would feel as if I had been transported into a different dimension. Everything was moving too fast, everyone was talking too fast, it all made very little sense for a day or two.
Now — scary as it is for me to admit, sitting in the Edmonton International (YEG) departure lounge, soon to board a Delta smoker for a three- hour flight to MSP, 600 miles an hour at 36 thousand feet, with a hundred and fifty strangers — this all seems quite normal.
Even though a week ago today, I was sitting alone on a taiga rock hilltop, trying my best to sound like a cow moose, so that I could lure a 700-pound bull moose in close and — very reluctantly, these days, but you gotta eat what grows around you and I have not a single doubt on that point — shoot him dead..
Which I did not, because Bullwinkle never appeared, but which I certainly would have, given a chance.
Here, ensconced among the 1% or at least the 10%* (which, lest we forget, includes everybody reading this blog, or so I would wager) light bulbs burn sixty or a hundred watts each and the Mark's Work Wearhouse in Camrose Alberta is selling winter jackets with electric heating wires embedded in the fabric. Electric clothing. As if we didn't have enough gizmos sucking up enough electricity every day already, now they would like us to plug our coats in at the end of the day. Sheesh.
Scary thing, though, is that none of it really fizzes on me any more, as they say in Canada. Meaning these contrasts, where clothes tumble dry in electric heat, where phones charge and thermostats do their thing and rubber-tired monsters hurtle in all directions — all as contrasted to that 30-year-old burn on the edge of McLeod Bay, that utter silence, that ancient outcrop, that 600 or more miles northeast of me on that sunny cold day a week ago, surely the most remote remaining portion of the North American mainland.
I step in and out of two worlds. Depend on the one to get by in the other.
And — I hope — still recognize, deep down, the vice versa.
Depend on the other to get by at all.
*December 7, 2006 A new study on The World Distribution of Household Wealth by the Helsinki-based World Institute for Development Economics Research of the United Nations University was launched earlier this week. The study shows the richest 2% of adults in the world own more than half of global household wealth. The most comprehensive study of personal wealth ever undertaken also reports that the richest 1% of adults alone owned 40% of global assets in the year 2000, and that the richest 10% of adults accounted for 85% of the world total. In contrast, the bottom half of the world adult population owned barely 1% of global wealth. The research finds that assets of US$2,200 per adult placed a household in the top half of the world wealth distribution in the year 2000. To be among the richest 10% of adults in the world required US $61,000 in total assets, and US $500,000 in total assets was needed to belong to the richest 1%, a group which — with 37 million members worldwide — is far from an exclusive club.
October and Still on Floats… and an Owl in Flight, Eye to Eye.
6 October, Hoarfrost River. Gray and mild, more drizzle. + 4 degrees C.
At last that long round of work is winding down and I can break out of the routine of gazing at the weather charts over morning coffee, and plotting what might be possible, and tying down the plane in the last light of day. Moose hunting has been sporadic, and so far unproductive, but there is a young muskox bull hung in the cache and we have laid eyes on two moose so far, east of home. No shots fired.
Almost all of my autumn flying has been to the tundra north and east of home these past weeks, and much of it has focussed on caribou. Native hunters looking for caribou, biologists trying to develop new techniques of photographing and counting them, and far-flung solo forays in the Husky to retrieve radio-tracking collars which have "gone stationary," in the parlance of the researchers. This translates to "the caribou wearing that collar is now deceased" about 99% of the time, and "collar prematurely popped off" every once in a great while. (The collars have a clasp which is somehow programmed to take a burst of energy from the battery and pop open at a certain date.) These dropped collars are still sending a VHF signal, which can be picked up from the plane a few miles back, and their last location is still known, so it is usually easy to land and walk and find them, and bring them back to town for overhaul and refurbishment. Evidently sending a small plane 200 miles out from base to collect a few dropped collars is well worth the cost, because the requests to do so keep coming in. Good work if you can get it. A small nimble plane, no passengers, no big loads, nobody on a tight schedule or in a rush for the work to get done. For a bush pilot, life does not get much better than that combination.
Surprised yesterday to see four snowy owls in the space of about an hour of flying northeast of Artillery Lake. That area is familiar enough to me, and I have flown over it, low and slow, frequently enough in the past 26 years, to say that this is either a bizarre coincidence or a real boom in owl numbers. I suspect the latter.
Yesterday I came up on one of those owls from behind, with the Husky configured in full-flap slow-flight mode. He (or she) was striding through the cold air with powerful wing beats, distinctive from the flight of an eagle or a falcon. I have no doubt he was getting skittish as the plane approached from his 4 o'clock high. As only an owl can, he turned his head completely around in flight, to fix that amazing owl stare right at the plane. Magical birds. An unforgettable sight. A moment worth trying to share, at least within the paltry boundaries of words.

Acquisition Highlight: Frank Stella's Jabłonów II
| Modern & Contemporary, painting
One of the Foundation's biggest – literally! – acquisitions in 2015 was Frank Stella's Jabłonów II, 1971. Jabłonów II, which measures 95 1/2 x 114 inches, is part of the current Power Geometry exhibition on view at Orange Door in Chicago. Jason Foumberg, the Foundation's curator, tells us about the artwork, its history, and its significance for the Thoma Foundation collection.
As one of the best-known artists in the field of Hard Edge painting, Frank Stella developed a geometric style that changed the course of art history. Stella's artwork brought the Minimalist movement to painting, and he further innovated his medium by producing works such as Jabłonów II, which contains elements of collage, painting, and low-relief sculpture.
This monumental work is part of Stella's Polish Village series. The series includes 130 canvases, which each reference a wooden synagogue destroyed by the Nazis in Poland during World War II. These works seem to have been inspired by the carpentry techniques used to construct the now-lost synagogues.
For this work, Stella built an original form, called a shaped canvas, and responded to that construction with the painting surface. In this way he attempted to modify spatial perception through dimensional, large-scale painting. At over 9 feet tall, Stella's painting has a powerful visual influence, and the work envelops a viewer's perception in its color-forms.

I have been making an effort to eat low carb recently. It is amazing how once you switch to this way of eating (and count carbs) how much hidden sugar there is in food. I have always been highly attached to carbs, but if I am honest, it is more that I am attached to sugar. Weaning myself off sugar has not been easy, I think for the simple psychological bond I have with it! We have been close companions for such a long time!!!:) My love of biscuits, cakes and sweets have always been my downfall and my desire to make these things is fuelled mainly by my desire to EAT them!
I think eating has moved from something that is life giving to something that is pleasure giving and while I certainly don't think that food shouldn't be pleasurable, I definitely think, that in an effort to make people consume more, the marketing machines of food producers emphasise the pleasure aspect to get us to buy. After all, we don't generally need all the crap they are making do we? Certainly we don't need all the chemicals, preservatives and additives that make their way into so many processed foods and my feeling has been that it wouldn't hurt me to eat more in the way of 'whole' foods.
I am not going to bore you with the ins and outs of eating low carb, however I have been pleasantly surprised at how satisfied I am eating this way. It is surprisingly easy, although it does require some effort with regard to everything needing cooking- there are few 'packet' options on this diet, just real food, cooked simply!
Steak- quantities depend on how many you are serving- I used rump but I often use sirloin too.
I know I have been remiss in providing quantities but really this is a trial and error thing, and depends on your personal tastes and preferences. Just don't be too heavy handed with the sesame oil as it can be too overpowering.
Cook the steak in a frypan or on the BBQ until medium rare. Let rest for about 5-10 mins. While it rests throw all your salad ingredients onto a large platter, slice the steak up and scatter over the salad, drizzle over the dressing and sprinkle with sesame seeds. I also made some noodles up for the carb eaters at the table- some egg noodles, cooked and tossed with sesame oil and more toasted sesame seeds makes a nice accompaniment.
Hi Linda! Interesting reading and great recipe! I too am into lowcarb, ie no carb ;) LCHF. I feel so well now and it is not purely a method of loosing weight (even if I have). So many good sideeffects. I am also trying to avoid all the food preservatives and chemicals!
Hi Linda, I'm reading your blog back -to -front at the mo, I'm really interested in your post as I'm going low carb soon- I'm not looking forward to weaning myself off carbs - I can really relate to what you said in your post.
I gave up ciggies - I can kick carbs, lol. I can, I will.

EPD concerned about Georgia Power's plans to close down coal ash ponds, P.2
On behalf of Stack & Associates, P.C. posted in Water Contamination on Wednesday, November 16, 2016.
Last time we began looking at Georgia Power's recent release of its plans to close a number of coal ash ponds. As we noted, the safety measures surrounding these closures have since generated concerns about the safety of the company's plans.
According to the Southern Environmental Law Center, Georgia Power's closure plans are not being disclosed in a way that would allow the public to understand the long-term safety implications. Environmental groups are particularly concerned about the possibility of toxins leaking into the ground from unlined coal ash pits.
Twelve of the 29 coal ash pond closures will be "closed in place," meaning that the company will leave the coal ash on site and implement measures to prevent leakage, such as pouring concrete on top to prevent lateral movement of waste material. It is the legitimacy of these planned "containment" efforts that is called into question by environmentalists.
Critics say that the only way to ensure leakage will not occur is to move coal ash to lined pits that are not near waterways and groundwater. This is not only because of the ordinary risk of leakage, but also because of the possibility of catastrophic events like flooding, earthquakes, and underground erosion, which could trigger the release of toxins.
Related to all this is that the Georgia Environmental Protection Division voted late last month on proposed amendments to the state's solid waste disposal rules, which include the regulation of coal ash disposal. In our next post, we'll look at how the agency ruled on this matter.

Harvard's annual financial report for fiscal year 2012 (ended last June 30), released in early November, paints in attention-getting terms a sober portrait of the University's circumstances today—and likely in the years to come. That context overshadows the latest (nearly break-even) financial results, summarized in the chart and analyzed in full detail at http://harvardmag.com/financial-report .
President Drew Faust's introduction extolls some achievements of the year—the learning and teaching initiative , edX , and the I-Lab —before pivoting to financial crises in Washington, D.C., and in Europe, and other uncertainties "likely to prove even more destabilizing in the months ahead." This proves a gentle segue to the castor oil in the blandly titled "Financial Overview" by vice president for finance Daniel S. Shore, Harvard's chief financial officer, and Corporation member James F. Rothenberg, University treasurer since 2004.
Revenue increased $130 million, to just over $4.0 billion—but expenses increased a few million dollars more (also to more than $4.0 billion), yielding a negligible $4.5-million operating deficit. Endowment distributions for operations drove revenue growth in fiscal 2012. Student income increased about 5 percent, to just above three-quarters of a billion dollars (after $357 million in financial aid is subtracted from tuition and fee revenue). But sponsored research support declined. Increased expenses reflected higher compensation—the people costs that account for nearly half Harvard's annual spending. Interest expense declined; in fiscal 2012, the University redeemed about $300 million of outstanding debt.
A fiscal roller-coaster ride. "Since Harvard thinks and acts in long-term timeframes," Shore and Rothenberg write, "we believe it is important" to consider fiscal 2012 "in the broader context of Harvard's changed financial circumstances and prospects." Beginning in 2002, "the University enjoyed substantial growth through fiscal 2008 driven by large increases in both net assets and debt"; a chart accompanying their text demonstrates that as the endowment more than doubled (to $37 billion), so did borrowings (to nearly $4 billion). Faculty ranks expanded 10 percent. Campus facilities were enlarged by more than four million square feet (20 percent), heavily funded with debt—and all entailing expenses for operations and maintenance. The financial-aid budget boomed.
We are challenged by volatility in the capital markets due to our endowment dependence and disproportionately fixed cost structure. We depend considerably on [federal] funding of biomedical research at a time when the government's projected deficits and accumulated debt create enormous pressure to reduce such discretionary dollars. The University's sizable campus requires significant annual funding to maintain and still more funding to address deferred maintenance.
Turning to matters at hand, they term the increase in employee-benefit costs "unsupportable…relative to actual and expected growth" in revenue. Harvard is now addressing those costs largely by effecting changes in healthcare benefits (co-insurance and deductibles rose during calendar 2012), and by increasing the share of premiums borne by higher-paid employees in calendar 2013.
Foreseeing a lasting shift from "many decades of growth and stability" to "rapid, disorienting change" buffeting higher education, the two men restate the case for "integration opportunities" (further wringing out costs through the library reorganization, centralizing information technology, and other initiatives); attack "generous employee benefit offerings"; and urge "exploring incremental revenue" (including "more creative strategies to leverage the University's space and its vast intellectual resources for additional monies that can be reinvested in our teaching and research aspirations"). And, of course, "a fundraising campaign" (see "The Coming Campaign ").
The need for change in higher education is clear given the emerging disconnect between ever-increasing aspirations and universities' ability to generate the new resources to finance them. Certain aspirations more closely resemble imperatives and will require universities to make decisive and inevitably difficult choices from among competing priorities. We can be successful if we equate change with the opportunity to improve and move forward.
…Success will require a tolerance for ambiguity, an openness to different ways of doing things, a commitment to experimentation, an underlying confidence in our ability to implement a sustainable economic model, and an abiding passion for the University and its impact in the world. These are the same success factors that have enabled Harvard to thrive throughout the centuries, and we expect to achieve similar results in the future.

Iraq expects fourth mobile license to fetch between $1 billion and $2 billion
Todd Haselton
Speaking to Reuters recently, Iraq's communications minister, Mohammed Allawi, said he believes the auction for a fourth mobile phone operator license at the end of this year could fetch between $1 billion and $2 billion. Similarly, Allawi said that the licensing fees, installation and equipment required to install a new network would cost between $1 billion and $2 billion. 40% of the revenues raised from the auction would be given to the mobile operator, 35% would be given to the public, and the final 25% would be given to Iraq's communication ministry. In 2007 AsiaCell, Korek Telcom, and Zain paid $1.25 billion each for 15-year mobile phone operator licenses. Allawi hopes that the fourth license will be used for faster data networks. "Regarding the fourth license, the most important thing about it is that we are going for more advanced technology," Allawi said. "Until this moment, we have no 3G in Iraq, we have no 4G. We have only GSM."

But just as reporters were quick to judge, some of those responsible for IMF policy during those years became defensive. Among the critiques in the hundreds of pages released by the Independent Evaluation Office (IEO) was the fund's poor economic forecasting. "So what? We were in the middle of a hurricane," said John Lipsky, the No. 2 at the IMF at the onset of the eurozone debt crisis, told the Australian. Managing Director Christine Lagarde also sought cover behind the "unprecedented" nature of the calamity. "Overall, the conclusion I draw is that fund's involvement in the euro area crisis programs has been a qualified success," she said in a statement on the IEO report.
Lagarde can say that because things went well in the other countries that sought her help. The IEO said the bailout of Ireland was "exemplary" and that the fund's work in Portugal went mostly according to plan. Greece was another matter. The country was approved for a loan in the spring of 2010. Three years later, gross domestic product was only 77 percent of what it was in 2009; the unemployment rate had surged to 27.5 percent from 9.6 percent; and the debt-to-GDP ratio was rising, not shrinking as promised. The rescue of Greece can only be described as a qualified disaster.
Treating the IMF fairly doesn't mean letting it off the hook. The IEO said the executive board had a "perfunctory" role in setting policy for Europe. When the decision was made to lend to Greece, the board received almost no notice that management intended to rewrite rules that kept the IMF from lending to countries that in would struggle to keep up with their debt payments. The fund's leaders regularly went straight to European capitals and members of the G7 with issues related to the eurozone, bypassing the board. That likely created a situation of "information asymmetry," as European and G7 board members would have had more intelligence than their counterparts from developing Asia, Africa, and Latin America, the IEO observed. There surely was resentment, as the legacy powers already were dragging their feet on allowing countries such as China and Brazil to have more say. "The IMF's handling of the euro area crisis raised issues of accountability and transparency, which helped to create the perception that the IMF treated Europe differently," the report said.
To be sure, the executive board had been guilty of weak oversight for years. It therefore is easy to understand the impulse to ignore it, especially in the heat of an international crisis. But as the IEO notes, an engaged board might have been able to help the IMF avoid some of its mistakes. For example, the staff hadn't developed a policy for engaging with the eurozone, even though it started to worry about Ireland and Greece in 2009. A discussion with the board might have caused someone to notice such a rudimentary oversight. The decision to rewrite the IMF's lending standards for Greece arguably was the right thing to do. As Lagarde argued, the fund bought the eurozone's leaders time to put out the fire. But the secretive way in which it was done smacked of favouritism and back-room dealing. Republicans in Congress even used the maneuver as justification for their five-year hold on IMF governance reforms agreed in 2010. A debate at the executive board might have avoided reputational damage.
The self-appointed prosecutors in the international business press might also have been left with less material with which to make their cases.

Did you know that getting at least 8 hours of sleep will lower your A1C number by more than 1 percent?
Sleep deprivation triggers insulin resistance. It also causes many other key hormones to act irregularly. For example, the hormones that turn down your appetite plummet, and the hormones that make you hungry (especially for carbohydrates) shift into high gear. This is a setup for weight gain, which makes insulin resistance even worse.
To get 8 hours of sleep, try setting a specific time to crawl in bed every night.
Enjoy the rest. You and your body deserve it!
