This large-format (232 × 192 cm) composition on the typical subject of The Adoration of the Magi was painted for the interior of a church. The treatment of the subject is indicative of the influence of the Antwerp Mannerists and also, in the use of forms from classical architecture, of Italian art. The picture came into the Hermitage in 1814, from the collection of Empress Josephine that was kept in the Château de Malmaison. Over the course of the next centuries, the attribution of this painting changed several times – from the Netherlandish school of Lambert Lombard (attribution by Gustav Friedrich Waagen, 1864) to Cornelis van Cleve (Max Jakob Friedländer, 1937). On the basis of stylistic features, the painting has been dated to approximately 1550.
The painting was transferred from panel to canvas in the Hermitage by the restorer Andrei Mitrokhin. An inspection of the work in late 2017 identified numerous old restorations, darkened varnish, soiling and overpainting that have completely obscured the original colour scheme of the work. The painting has not been on display in the museum for a long time. Modern scientific restoration will make it possible to bring back its original appearance and to present this outstanding work in the halls of Netherlandish art.


When World Coffee Research (WCR) formed in 2012, one of the first initiatives the organization launched was the International Multilocation Variety Trial (IMLVT). Each of 24 participating country planted the same 31 varieties. Most of the trial sites were established in 2016, and earlier this month, the first coffee cherries began to arrive. Here, photos of the first harvest at one IMLVT site in Guatemala.


The development of the web has increased the diversity of pornographic content, and at the same time the rise of online platforms has initiated a new trend of quantitative research that makes possible the analysis of data on an unprecedented scale. This paper explores the application of a quantitative approach to publicly available data collected from pornographic websites. Several analyses are applied to these digital traces with a focus on keywords describing videos and their underlying categorization systems. The analysis of a large network of tags shows that the accumulation of categories does not separate scripts from each other, but instead draws a multitude of significant paths between fuzzy categories. The datasets and tools we describe have been made publicly available for further study.

Eberhard Gwinner (26 December 1938 – 7 September 2004) was a German ornithologist and founding director of the Max-Planck Institute for ornithology. He specialized in the study of annual rhythms, their endocrine control, and biological clocks in birds.

Gwinner was born in Stuttgart and educated at Ludwigsburg and Tübingen. He became interested in birds at a young age and published his first note at the age of 17. He received a doctorate from the University of Tübingen in 1964 with research on ravens under the guidance of Gustav Kramer and Konrad Lorenz. His post-doctoral studies with Jürgen Aschoff made him interested in the timing of migration and breeding. He worked in Zaire from 1965 to 1966. He began to research endocrinology with Donald Farner in Washington and examined circadian rhythms at Stanford with Colin Pittendrigh. In 1979 he became head of the Radolfzell observatory and in 1998 he founded the Max Planck Research Centre for Ornithology and served as its director until his death.

He conducted long-term experiments on captive stonechats (Saxicola torquata) and garden warblers (Sylvia borin), some kept for nearly twelve years, under controlled environmental conditions and demonstrated that there were endogenous annual rhythms in the body that continued to show even when the birds were maintained under constant and artificial day-night durations. He examined proximate control mechanisms such as melatonin secretion by the pineal gland and the response to photoperiod. He examined if photoperiod directly controlled rhythms or whether they merely synchronized the internal rhythms, acting as a "zeitgeber" (time-giver).

By no means is this an exhaustive history of the area now inhabited by Bell Mountain Ranch Equestrian Center. Dating back to a time before Colorado joined the union, this area has been home to equestrians, cattle ranchers, miners, homesteaders, farmers, families, and communities. As a part of this grand history, bell mountain ranch equestrian Center embraces the past to build a better future.
Pioneers have been described as those who have gone before, preparing the way for others to follow. There have been many whose footprints have paved the way on Bell Mountain.
The first recorded land owners were Oliver and John Gaff in 1870. They were followed by a long list of homesteaders, including John Bell, who filed a land patent in 1917. He was listed as a farmer and, according to tradition, the ranch was named for him. Over the years, Bell Mountain land has been used for farming, ranching, logging, and mining. The last recorded homesteader was George and William Medinger, who were cattle ranchers. Over the years, these property owners have left their mark on Bell Mountain and provided an amazing heritage for others.
Ed's grandfather came to Denver and started Cambridge Dairy Farm when the land was just large farms and dirt roads. Both his grandfather and father spent their lives building the dairy business.

Ed, however, preferred playing music, flying, and riding horses to running a dairy farm. With his parents' passing, he became an entrepreneur, building several business including the Cherry Creek Inn. In 1965 he purchased 1,700 acres of Bell Mountain property. Although the ranch itself was run down, it was a beautiful piece of land with an excellent location off Highway 25. This was the beginning of Cambridge Morgan Ranch.
During the next 35 years Ed, with the help of Carol Nelson, built the ranch into a top Morgan horse breeding farm in the United States. Ed loved riding and was part of an elite group called the Roundup Riders of the Rockies who spent a week each year riding in the Colorado Rockies. They also enjoyed numerous rides on the Bell Mountain property and several of the members boarded their horses at the ranch.
Carol Nelson believes her life began in 1968 when she first visited Bell Mountain Ranch. Having frequently noticed the ranch and the beautiful panoramic view while commuting back and forth to work, Carol finally got up the nerve to stop and meet Ed Young and his Morgan horses. A single mother with a Morgan horse of her own, she began visiting the ranch regularly and eventually took over running of ranch and training the horses.
During the 35 years Carol managed the ranch, her horses won fourteen World Championships, including the Grand Champion mare and World Champion Reining horse. Bell Mountain Ranch's horses were sold all over the country and one was sold to a large ranch in Venezuela (Windchant) as a breeding stud. Many of the streets in the Bell Mountain Ranch subdivision today are named after Ed and Carol's horses, including Windchant, Bold Sun (who was a Grand Champion Stock Horse), Enchantra, and Vanguard.
Anything you could do with a horse, our horses could do with style.
Many people spend years on their street without giving a thought to where its name came from. Residents of Bell Mountain Ranch unknowingly enjoy a special connection to the Equestrian Center, as many of the street names in the community were named after the talented horses bred and trained by Carol Nelson and Ed Young.
One of the hundreds of bluebird feeders Mickey installed on the grounds.
When Mickey took over the property in 1999, the Ranch was in a complete state of disrepair. The two houses on the property did not meet building codes, the stables were not in working condition, and the rest of the structures needed serious work. Over the next few years, Mickey began work on reclaiming and renovating the property. Mickey, with matching contributions by the Bell Mountain Ranch developer, also contributed to the purchase of 40 pounds of wildflower seeds to spread along the trails and open space as well as 250 Blue Bird houses which were purchased from the Colorado Division of Wildlife. These were mounted throughout the community.
On July 1, 2004, he drew the building permit and started construction on the Indoor Arena which would include attached box stalls. Despite increased steel costs, the EagleSpan arena was completed in December that same year.
In five years' time, Mickey built an equestrian facility that would be a positive and long-term addition to the Bell Mountain community. Over the next couple of years, more upgrades were made to the equestrian facilities and Mickey subsidized the day to day operations of the ranch. Mickey Fouts' efforts at Bell Mountain were a labor of love and a wonderful legacy to those who follow.
Bell Mountain Ranch, with its rolling hills, private mountains, and abundant wildlife, was promoted from the beginning as an equestrian community with hiking and horse trails.
Walking or riding the trails provides visitors with views of trees, grasses, wildlife, and wildflowers, true Colorado experience.
In early 2000, Mickey Fouts signed a joint funding contract with the Bell Mountain Ranch Metro District to build the trails within Bell Mountain Ranch. With the assistance of Al Hawkins, who voluntarily laid out all the trails with a handheld GPS system, they personally walked every mile of the trails over the next three years, constructing the trails as they went. The spring of 2003 brought the completion of the trails and the arrangement of a trail maintenance agreement to keep the trails beautiful and in good repair.
With the completion of the trails in the Spring of 2003, Bell Mountain Ranch proceeded with a contract to maintain them. However, when the Metro District requested that the maintenance be turned over to them a year later, Mickey was relieved to no longer have the extra work and costs involved.
We dedicate Bell Mountain Ranch Equestrian Center to the pioneers that shaped her past, to the dedicated equestrian professionals who guided her through all of her challenges, and to the future passionate horse lovers who will determine her future.
This area has been a part of the community in Castle Rock, Colorado since before Colorado joined the Union. It has served equestrians, cattle ranchers, miners, homesteaders, farmers, families, and communities.
Our vision for the future of Bell Mountain Ranch Equestrian Center is to renovate, improve, and share it as one of the jewels of the Bell Mountain Ranch and Castle Rock community.
While we develop and renovate several of the historic buildings, every beam we touch will be with an eye single to restoring the great history of each structure, each paddock, every inch of land.
We invite you to take part, get involved, and leave your mark on Bell Mountain Ranch Equestrian Center's future, as those pioneers before us did on our past.

Taking a writing vacation may be just what the editor ordered to recharge and renew your verve for writing.
This vacation season, don't miss out on an opportunity to write your most-informative, most-inspired article yet.
Bring these author-friendly items with you when you're writing on-the-go or traveling in general.
Laptop – Typing increases writing efficiency. Bringing a laptop with you on your vacation may help you get more writing done in the time it would take to write it out long hand and then transcribe it later. Skip the transcribing step: bring your laptop.
Journal and Pen – For those trips where Internet access is not an option, there's the classic journal and pen combination. Even if you do have Internet access, this combination has been known to help authors fight writer's block and get those creative juices flowing no matter where they are. Use a pen (or pencil) to randomly scrawl notes and a writing journal to keep ideas bound together (and eliminating the need to hunt for disjointed scraps of paper when you get home).
You're exhausted. Time always seems to be fleeting and your goals – writing, business, and family – seem to be further away than ever.
Work smarter, not harder by eliminating – even hacking – the inessentials so you can focus on what matters: your goals. This is not a cut corners to skimp on quality strategy. It's about increasing your value by working efficiently and effectively.
Get ready because we're about to put more time on your clock so you can get closer to achieving your writing goals.
Prioritize – Family, team members, friends – sometimes it seems like you're performing dozens of tasks that sap up hours of your time for everyone, but you! When I felt like this was happening to me, I reevaluated what I was doing with my day and prioritized. I found that many of those tasks brought little value to the table, driving me further away from my goals. Prioritization is king in time management. Determine the order to deal with tasks according to their relative importance and value. Ask yourself, "Does it give value?" If it isn't delivering any value, completely eliminate it to free time up for things that do.

Help your readers see falsehoods by unveiling the truth. Leverage your authority and build trust with your readers using the True or False Article Template.
Brainstorm by creating a list of falsehoods relevant to your niche. To prevent negative backlash, avoid targeting people or brands that may have initiated the falsehood – "who started it" should not be the point or focus of your article. Take command of the issue by revealing the truth in a positive manner that will actually help readers, not hinder them.
From resources to spending to time … Waste comes in many forms and can become overwhelming if left unchecked.
When you look back on your own professional projects, business ventures, and even finances, you consider how to become less wasteful. No doubt you've discovered a few strategies along the way that have helped you become more effective, more efficient, and overall increase your value.

Newsmax Is Publishing, Promoting New Book By Jerome Corsi
Topic: Newsmax
When birther and conspiracy theorist left WorldNetDaily a year ago to move further down the credibility spiral for a job at Alex Jones' Infowars -- where he has been peddling even wackier conspiracy theories -- we thought we were done with him, since that particular cesspool is too toxic even for us.
But Corsi is back -- and not at WorldNetDaily.
Newsmax has a promotion going on centered around Corsi's newest book "Killing the Deep State," which tries to sell the contents of the book and the author's credibility this way:
Secretly operating behind the curtain of "national security" in Washington, D.C., exists the real government of the United States — the Deep State. This is the story of the players who pull the strings, no matter who you voted for, who actually sits in the Oval Office, or even who controls Congress.
Now, the New York Times bestselling author of The Obama Nation, The Late Great USA, and Unfit for Command pulls the veil off the Deep State and the powerful agencies behind it — the FBI, CIA, DOJ, NSA, and the Federal Reserve.
In his latest bestseller, Killing the Deep State, Dr. Jerome Corsi reveals for the first time powerful evidence that the Deep State is seeking to remove President Trump from office.
Corsi argues that no government agency, department, or official inside Washington — including the president of the United States — is immune from the powerful grip of the Deep State.
It also includes this Corsi-esque quote from Corsi: "The Deep State will not care if Trump is removed from office by impeaching him, declaring him mentally incompetent, or in the final resort, by assassinating him, as long as he is removed from office before the completion of his first term."
The cover blurbs Newsmax includes in the promotion are a rogue's gallery of dubious fringe right-wingers -- discredited author Ed Klein, dirty trickster Roger Stone, and Corsi's former boss, WorldNetDaily editor Joseph Farah.
Needless to say, Newsmax's promotion doesn't mention Corsi's deep involvement with bogus birther conspiracy theories -- so deep, he got himself to Joe Arpaio's bogus "cold case posse" on the subject -- or that Corsi is employed by conspiracy-crazy Infowars, or any other aspects of his sleazy history that ought to discredit him from being taken seriously by anyone.
Newsmax also doesn't mention that it's the publisher of Corsi's book. Humanix Books is listed as the publisher, which we've previously noted is a division of Newsmax.
Newsmax is also promoting Corsi on its website as well. A March 19 article let Corsi opine about the questionable firing of FBI official Andrew McCabe, and a rather lame article the same day notes that "The Barnes & Noble flagship store at Union Square in New York City is featuring best-selling author Jerome Corsi's new book 'Killing the Deep State' on the front table of the store." The article doesn't disclose whether Newsmax paid for that front-of-store placement -- nor did it disclose that Newsmax published the book being promoted.
If Newsmax is trying to be taken seriously as a news operation, its current dalliance with Corsi will not help that effort.

Barre workouts intrigue me with the combination of dance-inspired ballet positions and components of yoga and pilates. It's a great workout for a stronger core, better posture, leaner muscles and balance – I've become a Barre fan!
You don't need ballet experience as you certainly won't be doing any pirouettes and all you really require is a chair (unless by any chance you have a ballet barre at home). I follow the below video by Sleek Technique which is easy to follow and manageable while still pushing your fitness. It's so wonderful to try something different but not entirely so; it reminds me of a yoga class recently where we used a chair with very similar positions.
You'll feel the burn, particularly at the start, but that's what's so great. It actually works! When you hear the word pulse, just think of those muscles working their magic!!
Try it, I'm sure you'll love it just as much as me!

Health professionals gathered for a solidarity event against Line 3 at Mears Park in St. Paul, Minnesota on August 17, 2021. (Photo: Health Professionals for a Healthy Climate/Twitter)
Joining Fight Against Line 3, Health Professionals Urge Biden to Block Project
"It is essentially science denial to permit a pipeline of this magnitude during a climate crisis."
Jessica Corbett
U.S. doctors, nurses, and other health professionals came together Tuesday for a national day of solidarity against Line 3 that included various events and a letter calling on President Joe Biden to block Enbridge's tar sands project.
The health professionals are pressuring Biden to "take action that climate science demands, listen to the voices of Indigenous frontline leaders," and reverse the federal government's permitting of Line 3 under former President Donald Trump.
Their call echoes demands of Indigenous and climate activists who have long fought against the Canadian company's effort to replace an aging pipeline with one that would have the capacity to transport 760,000 barrels daily.
Noting the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report on the latest climate science that was released last week, the health professionals write to Biden:
We applaud you for rejoining the Paris climate agreement and canceling the Keystone XL Pipeline. We now call on you to revoke the permits for the Enbridge Line 3 pipeline expansion in Minnesota. Line 3 will carry the same product as the Keystone XL Pipeline, dirty tar sands oil. If it is put into operation, Line 3 will accelerate the damage to our climate, releasing carbon emissions equivalent to that of 50 coal plants, every year. This is in stark contrast to your stated goal to reach a net-zero emissions economy by 2050. We have neither the carbon budget nor financial budget to continue investing in fossil fuel infrastructure if we want to meet that ambitious but necessary goal. We also don't have the time—as U.N. Secretary General António Guterres stated, the IPCC report "...must sound a death knell for coal and fossil fuels, before they destroy our planet."
The health professionals highlight that Line 3 is a problem for not only the climate but also environmental justice, warning that letting the project proceed conflicts with Biden's "stated goal to stand up against fossil fuel companies and other polluters who put their own profits over people and disproportionately harm communities of color and low income communities."
"Line 3 cuts through the heart of the Anishinaabe territory in Minnesota, violating treaty rights, damaging sacred wild rice beds, and threatening the health of our Indigenous communities, who have already experienced generations of oppression and trauma due to exploitation of their land and their people," the letter says. "Health professionals across the country stand in solidarity with our Indigenous leaders who are putting their bodies on the line to defend sacred water, land, and climate."

When Manfredi Romano, better known as DJ Tennis, answers the Skype call, he sits in his Miami studio after just getting back from Hawaii. The short break had been a combination of business and pleasure, as he played at the Asylum Afterhours club and discovered the archipelago. The Italian DJ/producer, event organizer and Life & Death label manager looks very relaxed and tells that with his visit he fulfilled a childhood dream.
When you see his achievements in the field of electronic music, it's hard to imagine he doesn't hail from a musical family. Instead, young Manfredi was formed by listening to the radio, something he misses nowadays. "It's a pity that there's no good stations anymore, except for web radio and some college stations in the US. All the others have to broadcast music for the masses because their business model is based on advertising." As most of his teenage friends, the Italian was a gothic with dark hair, black clothes and as little tan as possible, listening to Siouxsie and the Banshees, the Cure and Joy Division. He then started collaborating with concert organizers and radio broadcasters, building his network and musical knowledge.


Response: There is a lot of variability in what "BRCA1/BRCA2" testing is between different laboratories in different parts of the world. Thus, results are not equivalent.
Response: Future research could better characterize the process by which laboratories classify genetic variants as being associated with disease (pathogenic) or not being associated with disease (benign) and variations between laboratories around the world.

During the spring of 2015 Bergman taught courses in Dance History and Yoga at The University of Iowa, Iowa City.
The University of Iowa Department of Dance provides an environment conducive to comprehensive training in performance, choreography, and theoretical studies in the framework of a liberal arts education at the Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Fine Arts, and Master of Fine Arts levels. Integrating dance and general studies, we seek to establish a foundation for artistic production and intellectual development. To provide specific bodies of knowledge, and ways to discover, synthesize, and apply this knowledge is paramount. The Dance program is based upon the central premise that both art and education are extensions of the total humanistic endeavor, and that by developing creative artists and nurturing the art of dance in higher education, individuals may be empowered to enrich and further the arts in our society in relevant, diverse, and meaningful ways. http://dance.uiowa.edu

Saturday, December 6, 2014 at LOOM Studio in Bushwick, Brooklyn, NY. www.loomyoga.com
Lecture description:
Yoga, especially asana, is an ubiquitous aspect of the American cultural landscape, yet the fascinating story of its rise to prominence in contemporary times is not often retold. What were the social, political, and cultural conditions and who were the individuals that contributed to the development of yoga from its traditional ascetic roots into the lifestyle industry it is today? We'll examine the many ways cultural exchange operates. The borrowing of ideas and practices is not only in an East to West direction; we will see how deeply Western influence effected Indian yogis and institutions. We'll learn about early associations with the occult, about several generations of gurus and teachers, and about the relationship between Vedic philosophy and New Age and self-help ideas. Drawing from recent historical scholarship, this entertaining, thought-provoking lecture will highlight the intricacies and forgotten histories of the development of modern yoga.

Bergman attended the joint Society of Dance History Scholars and Congress on Research in Dance conference "Writing Dancing/ Dancing Writing" hosted by the Department of Dance at The University of Iowa, November 13-16, 2014. Elizabeth assisted in the organization of the conference in the capacity of local events committee and selection committee. www.sdhs.org
Bergman's short dance film Pidgin/Pigeon was screened as part of the 20th Annual Culcalorus Film Festival in Wilmington, North Carolina
November 12-14, 2014.

What happens when the language you speak does not fit the place you find yourself? Pidgin/ Pigeon is an odd bird- one that seeks beauty in unusual spaces. This edited improvisation puns about ballet, bums, and twisting tongues together.
"Cucalorus is a joyful amalgamation of interdisciplinary art, a top-quality selection of international and local films, and an intimate bonding experience fueled by bonfires and moonshine." -- MovieMaker Magazine, 2013
The premiere of Bergman's modern dance group work If I fall, created in collaboration with the dancers of The Collective, was performed as part of Tri-Dance, November 9, 2014 @ 3pm, Baltimore Museum of Art

Tue, Aug 5 - 10:00 pm
Thu, Aug 7 - 5:30 pm
Oh Christ/ A Masturbatory Dance is a darkly comedic performance about heartbreak, absurdity, and virtuosity. At times poignant, at times painful, this solo work has its tongue in its own sexy cheek.
The weekend of July 25-26, 2014 Bergman was in Independence, Iowa participating in the annual Wapsipinicon Theatre Festival in "The Bike Ride of the Valkyries" a comedic saga inspired by Norse mythology and Richard Wagner's Ring Cycle.

Living the Practice: Lessons Learned in Northern India
This workshop, offered through Heartland Yoga's Dive Deeper Series, reflected the experiences and lessons learned from Bergman's six-week immersion in a yoga teacher training with Rishikesh Yog Peeth in northern India. Guided by the insights gained from her daily asana, pranayama, and meditation practice in the cultural homeland of yoga, this workshop aimed to inspire a new devotion to your own practice as well as deepen and enrich participants' understanding of the traditional methods and purpose of hatha yoga. This two-hour practice was followed by an hour-long lecture about the history of cross-cultural exchange between India and the West that created modern yoga as we know and practice it today. www.icheartlandyoga.com
From May 19th to June 28th, 2014, Bergman was in Rishikesh, India practicing and studying yoga as part of a 300 hour-level teacher training. Rishikesh Yog Peeth, a Yoga Alliance certified program, is located in this northern holy city which is also home to several famous Hindu ashrams and the Ganges River.

Popular Culture Association/ American Culture Association National Conference April 16-19, 2014, Chicago, Illinois.
Bergman presented her paper " Michael Jackson: Postmodernism, Race, and Kinesthetic Empathy" Friday, April 18th at the Marriott Hotel downtown.
Bergman spent the week of March 25- March 30, 2014, in Baltimore, Maryland in residency with The Collective. She created a nine and half minute, dance work in collaboration with eleven dancers that explores the dynamics of falling, being off-kilter, and trust in leaning against another body. The company may also be performing material and ideas from the set work and our creative process in a site-specific, improvisatory festival.
For more information about this unique group's mission and activities, visit http://www.collective-dance.com.
Special thanks to Jessica Fultz, co-director of The Collective, friend, and fellow alum of DeSales University.
C-I-R/ Creative in Residence at Earthdance Creative Living Center in Plainfield, Massachusetts with Taja Will. March 12-19, 2014.
Taja Will and Elizabeth Bergman are both independent dancemakers who use improvisation in their work. Inspired by the creative immediacy of their improvisational practices, the line between process and product was blurred in this dual/ solo residency. Their collaboration honored their commitment to solo work while exploring the dynamics of performer/ directorial relationships as well as processes of feedback and revision. The intention of the time at Earthdance was to be as creatively productive as possible- both in the task of generating and crafting material for their respective solo work as well as engaging in feedback sessions with the ED staff and local community. Bergman also participated in Taja Will and Blake Nellis's movement improvisation workshop "Rigor, Clarity, and Magic" March 20-23.
Master Classes in February 2014
On Friday, February 21st Bergman taught a contemporary/ modern class at Creighton University, Omaha, Nebraska.
On Sunday February 23rd she taught a contemporary/modern class at Omaha Academy of Ballet.
Friday, February 28th saw Bergman back at her undergraduate alma mater, DeSales University in Pennsylvania, for a contemporary/ modern class.
On January 25th 2014, Bergman joined a number of talented dancers and teachers at a Day of Dance in Dubuque, Iowa. Analia Alegre-Femenias and Bergman presented a new duet "Untitled Revisions (You/Me)" based on Alegre-Femenias' previous two solo works inspired by Pablo Picasso's Bull studies. This event was organized by Tyler Nemmers; more information about the day and the participating artists can be found at http://dayofdance.homestead.com.
For the fall of 2013 Bergman was based out of Denver, Colorado, which has a diverse and friendly dance scene. She took a variety of dance classes from companies and institutions around the city: from Hannah Kahn (Limon-based modern), Angie Simmons of Evolving Doors Dance (release-based modern/ contemporary), Cecilia Jones and Winifred Harris (Horton-based company class at Cleo Parker Robinson), Jacob Mora of Moraporvida (contemporary), West African with Koffi Toudji and two ballet classes alongside professional and retired professional ballerinas at Denver Dance Center. Bergman attended the Sans Souci Festival for Dance for Camera in Boulder (co-artistic directed by the lovely Tara Rynders, a friend from the EMERGE residency at Earthdance last winter) and a performance event in which the audience was shuttled by bus from downtown Denver through the industrial wastelands to a protected wild area just outside city limits (with site-specific performances along the way) by Control Group Productions.
Bergman was also a "yoga tourist" during this time and took advantage of a dozen Denver studios' new student specials. Exploring many different styles and communities was fascinating and gave her lots to think of in terms of the socio-cultural and political (and capitalist) dynamics at work within yoga culture. The range of styles, attitudes, and forms offered under the term "yoga" can only be described as postmodern in the appropriations, mistranslations, and (mostly sincerely felt) understanding that well-being and transformation can be experienced through physical asana. What well-being and transformation are defined as is another story altogether.
Bergman was in attendance at the 2013 Congress on Research in Dance/ Society of Dance History Scholars joint conference hosted by UC Riverside November 14th-17th. The many papers, presentations, discussions, performances, and conversations inspired by "Decentering Dance Studies: Moving in New Global Orders" were rich and thought-provoking and there was a great sense of camaraderie and community. www.sdhs.org www.cord.org
Bergman participated in Susan Sgorbati's Chicago Dance Improvisation Festival 2013 workshops on "Emergent Improvisation" which coincidentally was the content of this season's Contact Quarterly chapbook (www.contactquarterly.com) and in Chris Aiken and Angie Hauser's "The Shape of Attention" workshops in Minneapolis the following weekend, June 8-9, 2013.
Bergman was on faculty at the third annual International Dance Day Festival in Byblos, Lebanon, hosted by the Lebanese American University and Byblos Munincipality. This inclusive, inspirational festival is the brainchild of the talented and dedicated Nadra Assaf, founder/ director of Al Sarab Alternative Dance School in Byblos (their page can be found on Facebook) and has been developed over the course of its existence with the assistance of East Coast-based artist and educator Rain Ross.
The other international, national, and local teachers taught modern, hip hop, folk dance, "oriental" or "belly dance", jazz, and improvisation classes to the students. Bergman taught classical ballet master classes to all ages, created an original ballet work on Lebanese student dancers, and delivered a lecture entitled "The Influences, Career, and Impact of Pop Superstar Michael Jackson" to LAU college students. She also performed an improvised solo and collaborative faculty work during the culminating Gala.

What is the true value of architecture? Is it the provision of safe, functional and affordable building solutions? Is it the making of an artistic statement? Or is it the challenge architects can pose to the political status quo by reinventing the way we approach, say, public housing or subway stations? The truth lies somewhere in the middle – because when a building is truly worthy of praise, it is capable of doing all three.
In September 2016, a museum designed by British-Ghanaian architect David Adjaye was opened in Washington, D.C. to widespread acclaim. This year, Adjaye will unveil another of his creations: the Ghana National Museum on Slavery and Freedom. Located in Ghana's Cape Coast, an area known for its role in the slave trade, the museum will sit overlooking the water and will boast a bold, geometric design that blends earthy copper tones with cutting edge materials. Most importantly, this is a site that will commemorate the victims of the slave trade and offer an African perspective on colonialism.
The most daring architectural designs can often be found in our cultural centers, and Berlin's brand new concert hall, the Pierre Boulez Saal, is no exception. Named for the composer Pierre Boulez, this space has been designed by Frank Gehry, who donated his services for free. Constructed entirely from wood, this performance space will inhabit a building formerly used as storage for the Berlin State Opera. When it has been finished it will play host to the Barenboim-Said Akademie, an organization devoted to training Middle Eastern classical musicians. As with Adjaye's museum, this is a building of vast cultural, political and artistic importance.
We live in an increasingly tech-centric world, and architecture has had to adapt to reflect that. This year, we'll witness the unveiling of Apple Park in the Californian city of Cupertino. Designed by Foster + Partners, this vast circular complex has been built with innovation in mind; 12,000 employees will work on the site, collaborating on projects in the open plan communal areas. The complex will also be home to a 1,000 seat auditorium dedicated to Steve Jobs. Most notable, though, is the central area contained within the ring structure – here you'll find an orchard, a meadow, a pond, and walking and running tracks for the employees.
Pantone's Colour of the Year for 2017 is Greenery, a shade inspired by all things natural. It's fitting; across the world, people are becoming more eco-conscious and concerned with the preservation of natural spaces. We are also becoming increasingly aware of how spending time in nature can be beneficial for our mental health and happiness. That's what makes a design like the Seoul Skygarden so important. Designed by MVRDV, this outdoor complex is being constructed on the site of a former highway next to Seoul's busy Central Station. It will involve the planting of 254 species of tree, shrub and flower and has been designed with the health, education and day-to-day happiness of Seoul residents in mind.

They ate sweets...a lot of icecreams, cakes, cookies and more. But they did not go wild.
When we got back to U.S., it proved to me that we have much more sugar in everything. My kids started acting wild again after they ate a few cookies and drink a cup of soda.
Wow, what else could it be?
I started re-think about what I had to give them from now on.

Sep 30, 2019 - Economy & Business
An inflection point for the market
Dion Rabouin
Illustration: Aïda Amer/Axios
The market's ebullient mood has soured as September comes to a close and stock traders seem to have lost the risk appetite that had been pushing equities back toward all-time highs.
Why it matters: This week will likely provide an inflection point that will drive the market through the Q3 earnings season, which picks up in mid-October, and could last through the Fed's meeting on Oct. 30.
The market was in a similar position last September and ended up having its worst year in a decade as concern grew about the Fed's rate tightening cycle.
Between the lines: After 2 weeks of strong inflows to stocks, high yield bonds and other risky assets, investors sold both this past week, rotating back into safe-haven government bonds and money market funds, Bank of America Securities chief investment strategist Michael Hartnett pointed out in a note to clients.
The intrigue: This year has been what analysts at Bank of America Merrill Lynch called "The Miracle on Wall Street" in a recent note. (I called it "The Twilight Zone.")
The analysts point out the S&P 500 is up 17% this year and on pace to gain 30% despite the fact that investors have been net sellers of equities in every single month, driving a total of $201 billion out of stocks year to date.
What to watch: The all-important U.S. nonfarm payrolls report will be released on Friday, but investors also will get key data on manufacturing from the U.S., China and the eurozone before the end of the week.
Then there's the political fireworks: Democrats in the House look poised to push forward their impeachment inquiry into President Trump.
And British Prime Minister Boris Johnson is pushing forward with his quest to pull the U.K. out of the EU with or without an agreement on goods and trade.
The big picture: With good news on politics in short supply and earnings expected to be negative for the second straight quarter, continued solid readings on jobs and consumer spending will be paramount.
The GM strike could impact September's jobs numbers, which are already slowing, notes Bannockburn Global Forex chief market strategist Marc Chandler.
The 12-month average of nonfarm payroll growth peaked in February 2015 at 260,000 and has slowed to 158,000 this year.
"The quarterly average has steadily fallen this year, and it will again if the jobs growth reported on October 4 is less than 178,000," Chandler said.

Intervention Workover Control Systems (IWOCS) configuration?
Is there an example of the Intervention Workover Control Systems (IWOCS) configuration that someone can share?
IWOCS are complex and varied from one company to another. I would recommend to contact a specific manufacturer and ask them to propose an IWOCS configuration based on your requirements and project's needs.
Umbilical clamps preferably are to be cast or forged steel, and must have no loose components. All bolting or fastening devices used by the clamps are to be trapped in place, preventing accidental dropping of sub-components in the hole.

Catch Town On TV
TV coverage of the Mariners' trip to Wembley kicks off today.
BBC Look North get things underway at lunchtime, and ITV have a special interview with some of the stars of 98 from 6pm. Sky Sports News are also in Town to cover the Mariners ahead of the FA Carlsberg Trophy Final.
The TV coverage of Town will continue over the weekend on ITV Calendar, BBC Look North and Sky Sports News. The Mariners have a stall in the Cleethorpes Tesco and the players and the cameras have been there this afternoon.


Biz stone did an interview with Bloomberg TV today. Among other things, he revealed that Jelly may get a search feature in the future, and search might be how it ultimately monetizes the app.
Stone also revealed that Jelly had twice the number of accounts in its first three days than Twitter did in its first year.
It may also have something to do with the fact that Stone's name is much more well-known now because of Twitter, which led to a lot more media coverage and general interest than Jelly would've otherwise gotten.
But yeah, Facebook and Twitter helped to spread the word too.
"When we launched and we got featured in the apple app store, it was just crazy," he said.
Again, Stone's name may have contributed to that.
Jelly recently shared some findings from its first week. Some third-party data also shed some light on usage.

Speaking to the Soul: Naming as Transfiguration
Episcopal Cafe
I had a dream once in which I was in a warehouse-like grocery store at the check out counter. "There's a tornado coming," someone shouted, and everyone ran to the back of the building, away from the floor to ceiling windows facing the parking lot.
Then the tornado came into the building – through the open door. But I saw that it was small, not much taller than a linebacker, really. And I was very curious, so I stayed. It came right up to where I was standing, right up to the other side of the check out counter. I looked at it, a little dumbfounded. The wind of it blew my hair back and stung my cheeks. Cloud and dust were swirling around in a thick darkness.
It was a moment of acute awareness. There I was, standing at the check out counter, hands resting on the conveyor belt, eyeball to vortex with a tornado. No one else was anywhere around. It was just me and it. And then it said, "Your name is . . .", and it gave me an image impossible to adequately translate into words. The image was so clear and so amazing that I have never forgotten it.
And it is, indeed, my name; I can't deny it. In the depths of my heart, it transfigures me. The understanding that the tornado gave me made room for me to live my life in a way a little contrary to the norm. It helped me be who I truly am.
Up on the mountain with his disciples, Jesus hears the voice of God. God names him who he is most authentically, who he has been from the creation of the universe. With the gift of his true name, he also receives the courage not to turn aside from his path to Golgotha. And he is transfigured.
When someone names you, and does it with the sure knowledge that comes from the profound reach of the soul, you know it. They tell you who you are, and something deep within you resonates. All you can say is, "Yeah, that's me, all right." It transfigures you.
If you think about it you may have experienced such a moment. Often it isn't a mountain-top event. We are named in everyday circumstances, by those with whom we share a glimpse of who we really are. A friend of mine was named by an emotionally disturbed child with whom she worked. "You are not happy," he told her. "But you are mean to all the monsters. You are The Monster Tamer." When she told me what he had said, her face was dazzling.
Who in your life has named you? What is your authentic name? What does this name give you the courage to take on? What does it allow you to let go of? How has it transfigured you?

I resonate strongly with this post. It also speaks of Dabar- Hebrew for "word," and the essence is that the word as spoken is already coming into life, as did the Logos, Christ, was with God and was God incarnate in human form for us: "He became flesh and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth" Johm first chapter. I named my children with biblical names: Nathan, Rebecca, Deborah and Suzanne
Christine The final name, Suzanne Christine is anglicized from the French and means Christ is the Lily of the Valley: she was born Christmas morning.
I think names are sacred and extremely important, and names one calls a child, in many instances. (Especially when parents are angry and use demeaning names: we remember those!)

The Best YouTube Video Distribution Strategy||SuperWoman||
YouTube has some of the biggest music artists, the craziest bloggers, and the most hilarious comedians on the planet, all of them breaking the internet every single day with their YouTube videos. However, if you are to pin down on the most influential YouTube creator of the recent past, successfully roping in Hollywood superstars in most of the videos, it has to be Lilly Singh, also known as ||Superwoman||.
Lilly Singh is one of the most influential YouTube creators today
Since beginning her channel in October 2010, her videos have received over 2 billion views, and her channel has accumulated over 12 million subscribers. In 2016, she was ranked 3rd on the Forbes list featuring the world's highest paid YouTube stars (behind Roman Atwood and PewDiePie), earning a reported $7.5 million in 2016. Singh has also been part of the annual YouTube Rewind every year since 2014.
If you take a glance at Singh's strategy on YouTube, two things will catch your attention immediately:
1. Content - Lilly Singh has one of the most entertaining channels on YouTube. Most of her videos have a subtle comical flavour, especially the ones where she imitates her Dad and Mom while making fun of 'Indian in the West' stereotypes. This appeals well to the large audience base she has in India. What's more interesting is that her content doesn't restrict to just hypothetical comics like "If my Dad was a rapper". She ensures that she covers a larger spectrum in her video logs ranging from funny takes on feelings and emotions of the young generation to featuring the biggest Hollywood stars and taking a dive into their story. All in all, Lilly Singh's content strategy makes for one of the biggest success stories on YouTube.
2. Distribution - Lilly's team doesn't look at YouTube creation as just uploading videos on YouTube hoping to get growth and traction on social media. There's a meticulous method behind the madness you see, that is her online presence. For Lilly every video is a well crafted social media campaign that spaces out videos sent out across social media with very strong intent of conversion. Let's get into more detail on Lilly's video distribution strategy in the next section.
Deep Dive - ||Superwoman||'s Video Distribution Strategy
Lilly's video team understands that 'one YouTube video fits all platforms' won't work if they have to get the best out of the celebrity's online presence on the internet. While they certainly take care of more obvious checklist items like publishing the video at the right time on a day and following YouTube SEO 101, what moves the needle for Lilly Singh are the additional engagement creatives they produce online:
Teaser - Lilly Singh's Ultimate Social Media Booster
Let's try to understand how Lilly and team leverage teasers by picking an example. You can find below a video she published in April 2017: My Parents Explain Global Warming.
Just a day after publishing the video on YouTube, Lilly's team set Social Networks on fire with a teaser of the video. The teaser she published was nothing but a neatly done collage of video shots from the original video that builds intrigue and anticipation.
Teaser version of Lilly's video on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook
Now let's look at why the teaser video works magic on Social Networks for ||Superwoman||:
Better discoverability early on: YouTube sucks at popping up new content unless it reaches a given threshold of engagement, which is one of the biggest challenges for creators on YouTube. By catching your the attention of your followers on Social Media using a short teaser, Lilly Singh is now able to direct a part of our Social Media followers to YouTube, thereby getting a spike in YouTube engagement. You can see that the posts above have the call-to-action asking the audience to watch the 'full video' on YouTube.
2. Short and sweet: It goes without saying that grabbing the attention of a user on Social Networks even for 10 seconds is a challenge. That's where the 30 - 60 second teasers come in. They don't ask for a lot of time of the user while successfully building an anticipation that forces the user to the original video whenever he/she gets time. This results in better conversion than uploading the original 5 minute video on Social Networks (Instagram doesn't let you do that) or even doing nothing. We did a post recently on why short videos do well on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. You'll certainly find it helpful.
Far more reach: Lilly Singh has 2.87 million followers on Twitter, 6.7 million followers on Instagram and 3 million followers on Facebook. Even if you assume that a large chunk of these followers actively subscribe to her videos on YouTube, there would still be a considerably large follower-base who will discover her video on these Social Networks. That'd easily contribute to the views and watch time on YouTube, in turn improving her monetisation prospects on YouTube.
Coming Soon GIFs - Cheap but Effective
For every video that's published on YouTube, Lilly ends up publishing at least one GIF that captures a quirky part of the final video. Very similar to the job done by teasers, GIFS helps with building intrigue and anticipation. In her case, GIFs are used as a pre-launch creative. They are published before the video is uploaded on YouTube. For example here's a GIF that announces a new video:
How many licks does it take to get to the centre of my new video? Stay tuned. It's coming soon! #SuperMonday pic.twitter.com/8sctMOzWDC
— Lilly Singh (@IISuperwomanII) 24 July 2017
GIFs are a great way to announce a new release and works really well for a creator who has many followers. Since it's difficult to pack shareable content in a GIF, it's not right to expect a lot of virality from GIFs. However the ease of creating them should be reason enough to publish 'coming soon' GIFs before publishing a video on YouTube.
If you are a YouTube creator
I don't have to stress more on what you should start doing with your next YouTube video! First and foremost, treat it more like a campaign than just a video online. Second, however small your audience on Social Networks be, start publishing 'coming soon' GIFs and 30 - 60 second teasers to engage with your followers. You will be pleasantly surprised at the results they get you.

welcome to the new world, where you live in DHara, the Midlands, and Westland! Welcome to the Old World where the Sisters of Light and Sisters of Dark roam!
1. This is a legend of the seeker rp. Any questions, ask me.
4. I will name the seeker, his wizard, and confessor.
5. I will name the leader of the Sisters of Light.
6. I am the leader of the Sisters of Dark, so you must ask me to join.
7. you can either make up your character or use a legend of the seeker character, like I am.
1. There is Mother Confessor, and then Confessors. I am the Mother Confessor, so kings and queens bow down to me, like they do in LOTS.
2. Confessors may Confess whoever they want, but they must wait a day to Confess another, for that's how long it takes for them to regain their strenght.
3. The Mother Confessor is powerful enough to only take four hours of rest.
2. Unless you are a villager of the village we are visiting (me, the Seeker, and Wizard), or a orphan/runaway, like my char Cara, you can't be involved until we visit your village or palace or something.

Woman Donates Dead Brothers Face & Meets The Donor Recipient For The First Time
Three years ago, Rebekah Aversano lost her 21-year-old brother Joshua when he was struck and killed by a minivan while crossing the street. Now, Aversano is finally meeting the man who received Joshua's face after a groundbreaking transplant procedure.
Aversano met Richard Norris, the man who received Joshua's transplanted face, as part of an upcoming special with 60 Minutes Australia. In a promotional clip for the special, Aversano touches Norris' transplanted face in awe, remarking "this is the face that I grew up with."
Norris was injured in a shooting accident in 1997, leaving his face severely disfigured, according to The Guardian. Norris underwent several treatments to repair his face with limited success. Norris opted to undergo a complex face transplant procedure in 2012, which he only had a 50 percent chance of survival.
A series of photographs of Richard Lee Norris, the recipient of the most extensive full face transplant completed to date are exhibited during a news conference. AP
The operation proved successful, and although the transplant has brought new health restrictions for Norris, he is now living with Joshua Aversano's face.
"We can definitely see our son in him," Joshua's mother Gwen told CTV News. "Some of the facial features would definitely be our son, so we could see similarities, very much so. We are just so pleased we have been able to help him. Even though we had such a tragic loss, we were able to give someone else the benefit of our son."

Michael 'The Good Gay' Weinstein Still Insists Truvada Is A 'Party Drug' #removeWeinstein
"In terms of the people who have been yelling the loudest about this, they've all been associated with bareback porn," Weinstein told BuzzFeed.
Unrepentant: the dictator in his lair
The leader of the nation's largest community HIV/AIDS healthcare organization stands by sharp words he had for a drug that has been approved for its potential to prevent the transmission of HIV — comments that some doctors and activists say are "irresponsible" and even led to a petition demanding his resignation.
"I've had debates on this subject, but these people are jumping to character assassination and I'm not going to respond to it," said Michael Weinstein, president of the Los Angeles-based AIDS Healthcare Foundation, the largest HIV/AIDS medical care provider in the U.S. "My record and the record of AHF speaks for itself."
Outrage erupted among activists and healthcare advocates after Weinstein referred to Truvada, a pill that has been proven to be effective in reducing the transmission of HIV when taken daily, as "a party drug" in an April 7 article by the Associated Press detailing some of the differing views on the HIV prevention method. "If something comes along that's better than condoms, I'm all for it, but Truvada is not that," he said.
Weinstein, who has long been a critic of the blue pill, has no intentions of stepping aside or quieting down and blames much of the backlash he's received on what he said is the "bareback porn industry." Michael Lucas, creator of one of the largest gay porn companies, Lucas Entertainment, also called for Weinstein to leave his job in an op-ed published by Out magazine.
"In the last few days in terms of the people who have been yelling the loudest about this, they've all been associated with bareback porn," he said. "They're all associated with bareback porn, which kind of makes my point that it's a party drug."
According to Lucas, Weinstein should be removed from his post immediately, saying, "Mr. Weinstein knows how to portray PrEP, along with gay men, in the most unattractive light," Lucas wrote. "… In Mr. Weinsteing's eyes, PrEP isn't about public health. It's just a highly expensive way for those horny, irresponsible gays to go back to their barebacking-gone-wild."

Finally Weinstein utters a word of truth, confounding my theory that he's constitutionally incapable of doing so.

The Batu Caves are a popular and iconic tourist attraction in Selangor and a must see if you're lucky enough to be in Kuala Lumpur. We hopped on the air-conditioned KTM Komuter train at Sentral Station and were at the caves in under an hour.
The site of a Hindu temple and shrine, Batu Caves attracts thousands of worshipers and tourists, especially during the annual Hindu festival of Thaipusam.
The main attraction is the worlds largest statue of Murugan. The Hindu God of war and victory rises to 142 feet tall and stands guard over 272 concrete steps leading to the Temple Cave. Of the various temples that comprise the area, the largest and best known is the Cathedral Cave, housing several shrines under its high vaulted ceiling.
You'll most likely be entertained or even harassed by a troop of monkeys that call the temple home. They make great subjects to photograph but keep your valuables tight as they have been known to steal the unwatched backpack, purse, or water bottle.
We were happy to discover a public cafeteria on site serving cheap and delicious vegetarian fare, so make sure to bring your hiking shoes and your appetite.

Q: How to see all currently used packages? I implemented a ros package that depends on some other packages.
These packages depend on even more packages and so on...
How can I find out which packages are actually used when building and running nodes in my package?
(Except for looking at ALL the package.xml files manually, because there are multiple cases in which some packages are listed there but already deprecated and not actually used anymore)
So I'm looking for something like a tool/command/script that can list all actual package dependencies.

A: I think you can do this natively with rospack. To see everything a package depends on (including dependencies of dependencies) without duplicates, just do
rospack depends my_package

You can get it formatted with indents to see all dependency chains of each package (will include duplicates across chains if more than one package shares the same dependency):
rospack depends-indent my_package

And if you only wanted to know the immediate dependencies of your package, you can do:
rospack depends1 my_package

I'm not sure that addresses the problem you identify that it shouldn't identify deprecated dependencies, but if a package is still specifying a dependency explicitly in a package.xml, how is the system to know that isn't really a dependency? It'd be better to get those package.xml files up to date.

Google wants contracting firms to offer health care benefits, parental leave
By: Bloomberg |
Published: April 3, 2019 7:52:14 AM
The new policy will require health benefits, sick leave, a $15 minimum wage, paid parental leave and $5,000 a year for education, a Google spokeswoman wrote in an email.
Google wants contracting firms to offer health care benefits, parental leave (AP Photo/ File)
Google will require contracting companies it does business with to give employees health care, parental leave and other benefits. The decision comes after months of activism from Google staff and contractors asking for equal treatment.
More than half the internet giant's workforce is not full time. The company pays for tens of thousands of contractors, temporary workers and vendors — known internally as TVCs — who do everything from serving food in cafeterias to software code. Some of these people are employed by large staffing firms, including Adecco Group AG and Randstad NV.
Alphabet Inc.'s Google is famous for generous benefits and luxurious working conditions. Now, contracting firms will have to offer some of these expensive benefits, too.
Google's top requirement is comprehensive health care that covers the employee and their dependents and includes hospitalization, preventative and wellness services, laboratory and emergency services, prescription drugs, mental health services, labor and delivery, newborn and pediatric services, oral and vision care, rehabilitative and habilitative care, and counseling.
A Google representative told the Hill that the company will give suppliers until 2022 to institute the health-care benefits. The Hill reported Google's move earlier.
Contracting firms must also provide a minimum of eight days of sick leave, plus 12 weeks of paid leave for birth parents, non-birth and adoptive parents. The $5,000 a year for education will be in the form of tuition reimbursement to learn new skills or take courses, Google said.
"Going forward, in order to do business with Google, all companies that employ U.S. vendors and temporary staff will need to provide these things," the spokeswoman said.

Q: What is the effect of "-ScriptBlock" in "New-Module -AsCustomObject" I am new with powershell and I had been researching how to create custom objects.
With "New-Module" I always find results like "New-Module -AsCustomObject -ScriptBlock".
Like this for example:
$myObject = New-Module -AsCustomObject -ScriptBlock {
    function myFunc(){
       return "myFunc";
    }
}

but when I try without "-ScriptBlock":
$myObject = New-Module -AsCustomObject {

    function myFunc(){
       return "myFunc";
    }
}

it appears to have the same effect to me. I get a custom object with a function myFunc in both cases.
Am I missing something? Or actually it will have no difference in this particular case?

A: New-Module -AsCustomObject -ScriptBlock { function myFunc(){ return "myFunc"; } }

passes the script block { ... } as a named argument to the -ScriptBlock parameter. That is, the target parameter is explicitly named.
PowerShell commands can choose to alternatively support positional arguments, where the target parameter is not named, and instead the relative position among all unnamed arguments implies the target parameter.
The New-Module cmdlet's first positional parameter is indeed -ScriptBlock, which means that
-ScriptBlock before the { ... } block can be omitted here, which is why your two commands are equivalent:
# Same as above, except that -ScriptBlock is *implied*, positionally.
New-Module -AsCustomObject { function myFunc(){ return "myFunc"; } }

(Note that the -AsCustomObject switch parameter (flag) is by definition named, so it has no impact on positional parameter binding.)

You can learn which of a given command's parameters are positional by looking at its syntax diagrams, which you can obtain with New-Module -? or Get-Command New-Module -Syntax:
# Note: PowerShell commands can have multiple *parameter sets*, with
#       distinct parameter combinations.
#       Here, I've omitted the 2nd parameter set that doesn't apply to
#       your call, because it doesn't use the -Name parameter.
PS> Get-Command -Syntax New-Module

New-Module [-ScriptBlock] <scriptblock> [-Function <string[]>] [-Cmdlet <string[]>] [-ReturnResult] [-AsCustomObject] [-ArgumentList <Object[]>] [<CommonParameters>]

The [...] around a parameter name tells you that a given parameter accepts a positional argument, and in the case at hand that only applies to -ScriptBlock, so it is the first and only positional parameter in that parameter set.
