Not Covid But It Was Narendra Modi, Ramayana & Mahabharat Wave In 2020 – See Detailed BARC Report
Not Covid But It Was Narendra Modi, Ramayana & Mahabharat Wave In 2020 – See Detailed BARC Report, Check Out ( Photo Credit – Facebook / Narendra Modi ; IMDb )
Prime Minister Narendra Modi was the most-watched personality on television in India last year, according to the annual TV viewership report for 2019-2020 by Broadcast Audience Research Council (BARC). PM Modi's public addresses regarding the ongoing Covid pandemic, and his also his speeches focussing on a range of issues — from India being at the forefront of exporting Covid-19 vaccines to the ongoing farmer protests.
Broadly, here are the top three trends that one can spot in the report:
THE MODI WAVE
"Whether they are his interviews, speeches at global events, address to the nation or even a wildlife adventure show, channels that broadcast the content see their viewership leapfrog and set new levels," the report stated, explaining the impact PM Modi had.
Notably, PM Narendra Modi's speech at Red Fort, which was over two hours long, with 133 million viewers, saw a rise by 40 per cent, compared to his Independence Day speech in 2019.
The Prime Minister's speech on March 24, 2020, where he announced the first lockdown, saw more viewing minutes than any of his previous addresses.
His address to the nation in April 2020, where he announced a relief package of Rs 20 lakh crores, became the most-watched address with over 203 million viewers tuning in.
"Each time PM Modi's coronavirus-related addresses were aired, there was a noticeable drop in the viewership of major genres like General Entertainment Channels (GEC), Movies and Kids," the report said.
His call for solidarity by switching off lights for nine-long minutes reflected in a 60 per cent decline in TV viewership during those nine minutes.
The report also notes that due to the pandemic, and following an increasing curiosity about government measures and announcements, the share of news in total TV viewership tripled as compared to the yearly growth of seven per cent previously.
MYTHOLOGY AND DOORDARSHAN REIGN
Last year, "the viewership contribution of mythological shows to Hindi GEC genre spiked from a mere 14 per cent to 43 per cent by week 15, 2020". The fact that no new content was being created because of Covid guidelines, archived content made a huge comeback and Doordarshan (DD) was probably the biggest benefactor.
The channel's decision to re-telecast "Ramayan" and "Mahabharat", and other popular TV shows of the eighties and the nineties, saw the total viewership of the channel grow by 68 per cent last year.
LOVE FOR FILMS STAYED INTACT
Unlike the GECs, which suffered an initial loss due to lack of original content, BARC notes that the Movies as a channel genre didn't face any hiccups, and these saw growth by 10 per cent over the viewership of 2019.
"Regional movies genre posted higher growth than their Hindi counterpart, although Hindi language genre accounted for close to 60 per cent of total movie genres viewership. Apart from Hindi, the other major markets for the genre were Telugu, Tamil and Kannada," the report stated.
However, the report also suggests that the lack of original content meant a reduced share for GEC content in the first half of the year. It became normal, post-July, once the lockdown restrictions were eased.

I've been falling behind a bit on my LJ entries, so I do want to post my EFRC update even though it was a pretty uneventful day.
On my way to Indiana, I had to buy gas, and had to pay over $20 for a tank of gas for the first time (in the US). Also, on the way home, I saw a different station charging over $2 a gallon for regular -- a lot of stations had been at $1.999 but I hadn't seen one over the magic $2. Damn oil companies. Hope they can stay greedy long enough that people remember it in November. *smack* get back on topic.
I got to the center a little late -- almost 10:30 by the time I was ready to start actually doing things -- and a fair bit of the feeding and cleaning was already done, but there was still a fair bit to do. I cleaned a couple of cages; I fetched some straw; I filled some water buckets.
The most unique challenge I helped deal with was that one of the tiger cages had a big pool of standing water in it; Fallon (my best guess at spelling) and I had to try to figure out how to get through the jungle outside the cage to open up the plugged place where the water should drain out. They didn't issue us machetes, but we did manage to get where we needed to be without them.
I again spent a good chunk of time spraying water into a water tank from outside the fence while the tigers played with the stream of water. I talked to Karen, who's probably the most senior and respected of the regular employees, and she agreed with me that it would be a good idea to build some kind of bracket or mounting system so that more of the tiger's water tanks could be filled from the outside, without having a person actually stand there and hold the hose. Not only would it save employee and volunteer time, it would cut down on the time the cats have to spend locked out of the main part of their enclosures while water tanks fill, and most important, it would give the tigers the chance to play with the water more often. They really enjoy it, and any easy chance for more enrichment is always good. The hard part will be to convince Joe of the merit of the plan.
I got good visits with most of the cats that I'm friendly with, which left me feeling pretty good about the day even though I didn't get to play with any without a fence between us.
One of the highlights of the early to middle part of the day was the number of butterflies that were around. Butterflies often seem to be attracted to the minerals on the ground on some of the paths and work areas, and there were several red-spotted purples and tiger swallowtails today. There was also an unfamiliar swallowtail, and a completely unfamiliar butterfly (not a swallowtail, more normal wing shape, but fairly large), which had black wings with yellow borders.
In addition to just watching butterflies, I like to photograph them, and I like to try to pick them up and get them to sit on my hand. Sometimes I can do it fairly well; other times I can't. I have a notion that whether a butterfly will sit on your hand has something to do with how at peace you are with the universe -- I seem to be more successful when I'm feeling less stressed out with the world. I call this 'butterfly karma'. My butterfly karma wasn't too good today; I didn't get any butterflies to sit on my hand, and only one that really even came close.

"Босански пријатељ" је био први босанскохерцеговачки часопис, који је почео излазити 1850. године. Оснивач, уредник и за живота готово једини аутор је био фра Иван Фрањо Јукић. Објављена су укупно четири броја, од којих је прва три припремио Јукић а последњи број његов ученик фра Антун Кнежевић.

Часопис је нудио информације из историје, географије, етнографије, етномедицине, народног стваралаштва и културне дјелатности истакнутих појединаца. Заступао је и разне књижевне правце и представљао својеврсну енциклопедију знања и забавног садржаја. Од радова објављених у часопису се издвајају: Љетопис Католичке цркве, Земљодржавописни преглед турског царства у Еуропи, Омер-паша и босански Турци и путопис Путовање из Сарајева у Цариград 1852. године.

Издања

Први број Босанског пријатеља Јукић је завршио 1850. у Варцар Вакуфу (данашњем Мркоњић Граду), а штампао га је Људевит Гај исте године у Загребу у својој штампарији и о свом трошку. Материјал за прву свеску Јукић је прикупљао годинама раније, јер је планирао оснивање књижевног друштва "Коло босанско" које би објављивало свој часопис, али до тога није дошло. Први број је посвећен бискупу Јосипу Штросмајеру и имао је 140 страна. У њему се, између осталог, аутор жали на тешкоће око издавања часописа и позива на оснивање књижевног друштва и пребацује црквеним и световним властима што немају разумијевања за овакве идеје.

Други број је изашао у новембру 1851. и трошкове штампања је сносио сам Јукић. Овај број је имао око 200 страна и био је посвећен сераскеру Омер-паши Латасу. Само два мјесеца након објављивања овог броја, Латас је Јукића ухапсио у Сарајеву и касније пребацио у цариградски затвор и протјерао из Босне.

Трећи број часописа Јукић је састављао у изгнанству, углавном за вријеме службе у Ђакову. Објављен је тек 1861. (четири године након његове смрти), а штампање је омогућила Матица Илирска. Имао је 215 страница.

Четврти број је саставио и издао 1870. године у Сиску фра Антун Кнежевић, који је у Варцар Вакуфу био Јукићев ученик и касније близак пријатељ и следбеник.

Who > A - G > Charlotte
1844, Franklin County, Alabama
Between 1844-11-20 and 1844-12-03, Franklin County, Alabama, by John Brown
Charlotte was an enslaved woman who lived in Franklin County, Alabama, in the northwest portion of the state, in the Tennessee River Valley. She joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints sometime between November 20 and December 3, 1844, attending the small and short-lived Little Bear Creek Branch.[1]
Latter-day Saint missionary John Brown's journal is the only surviving source to mention Charlotte by name. Brown recorded that he "baptized Reuben Copeland and a black woman named Charlotte," but failed to specify the date of the baptisms or the name of Charlotte's enslaver.[2] Adding to the challenge of tracing Charlotte over time is the fact that in 1890, Franklin County's courthouse burned down, destroying any records that may have shed additional light on Charlotte's life, including marriage, birth and death records, wills, probate records, and land sales and deeds. Because of the scarcity of information about Charlotte, only an approximation of her life can be inferred from what we know about her potential enslaver, the religious life of enslaved people in the South, and the demographics of antebellum Franklin County, Alabama.
Simply because Reuben Copeland and Charlotte were baptized on the same day, Copeland is Charlotte's most likely enslaver. Evidence suggests that Reuben's wife Margret had already joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and now Reuben and Charlotte would too. Latter-day Saint missionary Abraham O. Smoot stayed at the Copelands when preaching to the Little Bear Creek Branch and Brown likely did too.[3]
We know of only three members of the Little Bear Creek Branch by name: Copeland, Charlotte, and the presiding elder of the branch, Joseph L Griffin. Griffin enslaved two women and two men in the 1830 census, and four people of undetermined age or gender in the 1850 Alabama Census. Though it is possible that one of Griffin's enslaved women was Charlotte, Griffin lived several miles from Copeland, making it is less likely that Charlotte would have traveled from Griffin's farm to be baptized with Copeland with no mention of Griffin at the baptism. By February 15, 1845, the Little Bear Creek Branch had over twenty unnamed members, one of whom also could have been Charlotte's enslaver.[4]
Even still, Reuben Copeland is the most plausible possibility. In Franklin County, enslaved people made up about 42 percent of the population in 1840.[5] However, a partial survey of the county census indicates that only half of the heads of household in the area were enslavers. Of those, most did not own large plantations but farmed smaller acreages and enslaved three to four people. Copeland fit this pattern. He grew corn on less than forty acres and owned no slaves in the 1840 census. By 1850, however, he had acquired four enslaved people: a 35-year-old woman; two boys, ages nine and ten; and a five-year-old girl.[6] Records do not indicate whether the 35-year-old woman was Charlotte or if the three enslaved children in the household were her children. In any case, the children were probably meant to help on the farm and in the house, with the enslaved woman expected to watch over and care for them as well as perform other household and caretaking duties.
In situations like the Copeland household with few enslaved people, the slaves typically lived under the same roof as the enslavers and were more likely to follow the cultural and religious inclinations of their enslavers. But they did not do so naively. By the early nineteenth century, African Americans had made Christianity their own, often conducting preaching and prayer meetings outside the knowledge or authorization of their enslavers, celebrating the Old Testament stories of Moses freeing the Israelites. Enslaved Christians in the American South found hope in Christ, not only in a life to come, or as support for their mortal travails, but as a promise that they would be freed from bondage in the near future.[7] Because they were under more supervision, household slaves were less likely to attend such covert meetings, but the slave theology preached at them was nonetheless widespread.
Brown offers no clue as to what may have attracted Charlotte to the Latter-day Saint cause or how much choice she was given in the matter. Perhaps Charlotte simply acquiesced to the wishes of Reuben and Margaret Copeland and was baptized with Reuben. No matter her motivation, contradictions would have complicated her choice. In the very year that Brown baptized Charlotte, Methodists, who made up the majority of religious believers in Franklin County, were experiencing a secession crisis over the question of slavery.[8] There is a very good chance that the debate over the morality of slavery and the biblical status of African Americans came up in the discussions and preaching of the Latter-day Saint missionaries there. Both Brown and Smoot, the missionaries who recorded all that we know of the Little Bear Creek Branch, were from the South and would go on to own slaves in Utah Territory. Thus, Charlotte may have heard Latter-day Saint missionaries affirming typical rationalizations for slavery and white supremacy before she was baptized. However, such justifications would have been no different from what other white preachers might have said. She already would have been adept at separating the good from the bad and holding on to those things that gave her hope. Perhaps there was something in the Latter-day Saint message that affirmed to her that Jesus Christ claimed all flesh as his own and that he was no respecter of persons (Doctrine and Covenants 38:16), even if the missionaries who preached such a message contradicted those ideals.
Reuben Copeland continued to enslave people for at least another decade following Charlotte's baptism. Copeland claimed two slaves in the 1855 Alabama census but that is the last public record to document his enslavement of other people. He appears in the 1860 census but not in the 1860 slave schedule. As a result, there are no marks of gender and age to suggest Charlotte's continued presence in the Copeland household.[9]
As for the Little Bear Creek Branch, a February 1845 conference report is the last to mention the small Alabama congregation in any records of the Church or its missionaries.[10] No overland pioneers have been traced to the branch. If Charlotte remained religious, whether as a believer in the Latter-day Saint cause or not, she likely would have worshipped God in another setting of her choice after that.

How to fight therapeutic technological consumerist militarism
The current issue of Geez magazine ("Contemplative Cultural Resistance") just arrived in my mailbox from Canada, and the issue opens with a quote from Walter Brueggeman's 2005 essay "Counterscript." Geez had to abridge the quote, but here's the original:
"The dominant script of both selves and communities in our society, for both liberals and conservatives, is the script of therapeutic, technological, consumerist militarism that permeates every dimension of our common life.
"I use the term therapeutic to refer to the assumption that there is a product or a treatment or a process to counteract every ache and pain and discomfort and trouble, so that life may be lived without inconvenience.
"I use the term technological, following Jacques Ellul, to refer to the assumption that everything can be fixed and made right through human ingenuity; there is no issue so complex or so remote that it cannot be solved.
"I say consumerist, because we live in a culture that believes that the whole world and all its resources are available to us without regard to the neighbor, that assumes more is better and that 'if you want it, you need it." Thus there is now an advertisement that says: 'It is not something you don't need; it is just that you haven't thought of it.'
"The militarism that pervades our society exists to protect and maintain the system and to deliver and guarantee all that is needed for therapeutic technological consumerism. This militarism occupies much of the church, much of the national budget and much of the research program of universities.
"It is difficult to imagine life in our society outside the reach of this script; it is everywhere reiterated and legitimated."
Later in the essay, Brueggeman goes on to say that this script has "failed," for "we are not safe, and we are not happy." He points to the complicity of the Christian church in "enacting" this script, adding:
"It is the task of the church and its ministry to detach us from that powerful script."
Unitarian Universalism got kicked out of the Christian church more than a century ago (a fact we're now kind of proud of), but like many Christian churches we too are enacting the script of therapeutic technological consumerist militarism. We firmly believe that we can find ways to live our lives with no inconvenience. We firmly believe that we can find a fix for every problem.
The next two points may not be as obvious, and will require some explanation.
We may protest that we fight consumerism, but we live our lives as though resources are ours to exploit. We cut down on our oil use, but we firmly believe that the sun and wind are ours to exploit for energy. We say we are anti-racist, but the financial health of many of our congregations can be traced back to seed money accumulated through exploitation of people of color: land appropriated from Native American peoples, labor appropriated from persons of African descent, etc.
We may protest militarism. Many of us may be peaceniks, and some of us have been arrested protesting militarism. But in the end we depend on systems that protect therapeutic technological consumerism, and so we protest that upon which our livelihoods depend.

Mystics and Transcendentalists
Below is the uncorrected text of the talk with which I began a class on the mystical tradition within Unitarian Universalism, focusing (of course) on the Transcendentalists. A fascinating discussion followed, in which participants offered corrections where I was vague or in error, amplified things that needed to be amplified, and added lots of good thinking. So if you read this, remember that you're missing the most interesting part of the class. Also, I diverged from the text at several places, so the talk you heard may not be the talk you read here.
Yes, liberal religion has a mystical tradition!
It seems odd that I have to assert this so vigorously. But our Unitarian and Universalist traditions, and Unitarian Universalism today, have not been particularly hospitable towards mystics. Throughout our history, and into the present day, the rationalists dominate our theological conversations — and I include both the theistic rationalists and the atheist rationalists. Our faith tradition clings to its belief in a rationalism inherited from the Enlightenment; we believe in carefully reasoned arguments; we have a tendency to focus on the brain and mind and ignore the heart and the rest of the body; we are most likely to use logical thought, and we are inclined to ignore other ways of knowing and interpreting the world.
However, by the same token, the mystics among us been not been kind towards their non-mystical co-religionists.
Emerson against religious formalism
Back in 1838, Ralph Waldo Emerson gave what is now known as the Divinity School Address; he spoke to the graduating class of Harvard Divinity School, supplier of most Unitarian ministers of the day, and told them how to be good ministers. Do not be coldly rational formalists, he warned. And then, speaking of the minister of his Unitarian church in Concord, Massachusetts, a man by the name of Barzillai Frost, Emerson said:
"Whenever the pulpit is usurped by a formalist, then is the worshipper defrauded and disconsolate. We shrink as soon as the prayers begin, which do not uplift, but smite and offend us. We are fain to wrap our cloaks about us, and secure, as best we can, a solitude that hears not. I once heard a preacher who sorely tempted me to say, I would go to church no more. Men go, thought I, where they are wont to go, else had no soul entered the temple in the afternoon. A snow storm was falling around us. The snow storm was real; the preacher merely spectral; and the eye felt the sad contrast in looking at him, and then out of the window behind him, into the beautiful meteor of the snow. He had lived in vain. He had no one word intimating that he had laughed or wept, was married or in love, had been commended, or cheated, or chagrined."
Emerson was prone to really bad puns, and here he indulges himself in a hidden pun: It is Barzillai FROST who is speaking in a SNOW STORM; bad as this pun may be, it points up a difference between two kinds of coldness: there is the coldness of the snow, which is real and can be experienced; and there is the coldness of religious formalism.

(2) How Thoreau was affected by Eastern religions
(3) The circle of writers and thinkers who came and went in the town of Concord during Thoreau's life
(4) Why Thoreau left his Unitarian church, and place his departure in the context of wider trends in Unitarianism

Donna Minkowitz: Growing Up and Writing It All Down
Author: Sarah Burghauser
This past October, former Village Voice contributor and activist journalist Donna Minkowitz released her hot-blooded new memoir, Growing Up Golem (Magnus), about her struggle with the inhibitive physical condition RSI, her injurious family history, and the intimacy of abuse.
In an email exchange with the Lambda Literary award winner, Donna discussed the roles of fantasy, identity, and writing sex in Growing Up Golem.
I'd like to start with a quote from your book: "I have never felt particularly Jewish or lesbian. I identify much more, I say, as a sort of sexy, holy kid on a motorcycle. The kid may be male. He's an effeminate boy with long hair. I think he has pork remnants on his fingers."
When I read these lines I began to wonder if you consider your book to be more of a queer memoir? A Jewish memoir? A disability memoir? Or something else entirely? In other words, is there a particular part of your story that you see as the northern star? A theme more naturally fertile or interesting to you as a writer?
The reader should bear in mind that I'm saying these words at a very particular moment in the book; this is not always how I feel. (In the book, I'm saying those words as a member of a panel on "Jewish Lesbian Writers," and of course I immediately feel the ways I don't fit in that box.) Actually, I find I'm feeling both more "Jewish" (in terms of culture, not religion) and more "lesbian" as I get older. As to the rest of your question, the book is all of them and more! It's also a memoir mixed with Tolkien-style fantasy. It's impossible to separate the different aspects of it, just as it would be impossible to separate me into the queer Donna, the working-class Donna, the fantasy geek Donna and so on. Which is appropriate, because it's a book about becoming whole.
When you read your book now, do you still see the Donna Minkowitz in the book as yourself or as a character? How much distance do you have now, or did you have during the writing process, from the "protagonist"?
Someone said about memoir, the writer must know more than the narrator, and the narrator must know more than the character. So there are really three Donnas here, the writer, the narrator (the voice telling the story), and the character (the person described as going through the events in the story).
I needed to have a great deal of distance during the writing process, because I think the whole point of doing a memoir is to really observe yourself and attempt to write about yourself with some insight. That's only possible if you try to step away and really look at the things you do.
But of course, it's also me. The Donna in the book does all the things I did, and goes through the same travails.
The sex scenes in the book are very powerful–the writing really stands out in these scenes. Can you talk a little bit about the experience of writing sex, specifically with this character?
I like writing about sex, and in particular, writing about real sexual and sensual experiences. Partly because I think the reality of sexual experiences is often elided in writing into something less ambiguous or ambivalent than sexual experiences often feel. All of the emotions and sensations you may feel at a particular time of having sex – fear, discomfort, and annoyance or anger, as well as excitement, ecstasy, connection and fullness – need to be written about. The other piece of it for me is that I just really like to convey sensual experiences of all kinds through words. I think descriptions of touch and smell can be some of the most lyrical writing there is, and I think they can give memoir more of a concrete base; a base in the physical world.
In reading, it seemed as though a lot of your healing and processing through your abuse happened during the actual writing process. As a reader I felt like I was watching your thoughts unfold before me. In the moment. Did it feel raw writing it? Does it still feel raw now? Or was this the effect of a highly calculated and arranged tone/approach to give readers that illusion?
I would say it's almost entirely an illusion. I'm glad you felt like you were watching my thoughts unfold before you in real time, but that was definitely an illusion! I worked on the book for eight years, and almost all the events in the book had been over for a long time before I wrote about them. I mean for the book to feel raw – that was my goal. It is almost a book about feeling raw, as though you don't have a protective outer layer. The main character doesn't, or at least she starts out that way. One of the many meanings for "golem" in Hebrew is embryo… one of the newest, rawest and most vulnerable things there is. "Golem" also means fool, and it is partly a book about starting out not knowing how to run your own life, and then perhaps gradually learning how.
Throughout the book, you use direct address – particularly in the form of pet names for readers. Some of these names include: doll, best beloved, gentle reader, sweet little reader, baby doll, honey buns, little one, and sweet pea. At first I thought that maybe this familiar (and perhaps a bit flamboyant) language was meant to invoke an oral tradition of storytelling. But as I read on, these direct addresses began to hit my ear as diminutions. Why are readers your "best beloveds"?
The book is fundamentally about relationships. The main character is anxious about them, wants them badly, and doesn't really know how to have them. So I decided to configure the relationship between the narrator and the reader as an important relationship in its own right. The narrator is telling a very intimate story, so it makes sense in a way that she addresses readers as her intimates. Perhaps it's a way to tell an intimate story without too much embarrassment or shame – the narrator makes clear to the reader that the reader isn't a voyeur, but one person listening to another.
On another level, the series of peculiar endearments is supposed to be odd, and yes, there's a reason that the narrator is using diminutives. Golems are created as slaves, so they are very conscious of power imbalances, and very frightened of them. The reader necessarily has more power than the writer – she can read the book however she wants. So the frightened narrator is trying to redress that imbalance by attempting to "make the reader smaller." It's a way of revealing the narrator's character, and her fears. Also, the narrator is intended to be a bit of an annoying sort, especially in the beginning. As we go on through the book, the endearments to the reader become more tongue in cheek as the actual connection to the reader grows.
Finally, could you talk a little bit about the publication process? How did you end up working with Magnus?
There's no question that this is a challenging time in publishing, probably for all players. But I'm just thrilled that Don Weise of Magnus got behind the book so strongly. He "got" the book immediately, which won my heart.

Reed: Fight poverty by creating climate for success

Reed: Fight poverty by creating climate for success The answer is simple: We must aggressively pursue an agenda of opportunity. Check out this story on ithacajournal.com: http://ithacajr.nl/1rq9dRP
Rep. Tom Reed Published 9:51 a.m. ET July 19, 2014
Rep. Tom Reed, R-Corning(Photo: FILE PHOTO)
Counties in District 23 have above-average poverty rates compared to other parts of New York.
The Revitalize American Manufacturing and Innovation Act (RAMI) can generate jobs.
We need to enact real tax reform, and address a 70,000-page tax code.
We must work together to strengthen resources like local food banks and pantries.
As every American knows, our economy continues to struggle. Across the country, and across the 23rd Congressional District, families have felt the impact of the economic crisis as many struggle to make ends meet. Americans need jobs and steady paychecks. Families in the Southern Tier and Finger Lakes deserve leaders who listen and care.
Our families have made tough decisions in an endless financial juggling act. With higher-than-average poverty rates across the country and in our own backyard, how do we address this growing challenge?
The answer is simple: We must aggressively pursue an agenda of opportunity. I care about the families in my district, and I believe that when you create jobs you create security. Government should be used as a tool to provide the stability and opportunity needed to attack poverty. Together, we can revitalize our manufacturing sector, train a world-class workforce, strengthen the economy and bring new ideas to the table.
One such idea is the bipartisan manufacturing legislation I introduced. The Revitalize American Manufacturing and Innovation Act (RAMI) creates a network of regional institutes to generate jobs, provide extensive workforce training and bring thousands of jobs to areas in need. With more than 40 Republicans and 40 Democrats on board, we continue to build momentum towards final passage.
America's job growth depends on a trained and skilled workforce, competitive energy costs, a lower tax burden and a community willing to invest in its future. My opponent instead has chosen to reiterate the Obama-Pelosi agenda and preach about income equality while the income gap in the county she represents has grown at an alarming rate. According to the Census Bureau, one in five residents of Tompkins County live in poverty, the highest rate in the district. According to the New York State Department of Labor over the last year, 1,300 private-sector jobs have been lost in Tompkins County. Behind these numbers are real people who have been unfairly victimized by a county government that has doubled taxes during my opponent's tenure.
We need to enact real tax reform, and address a 70,000-page tax code that hasn't seen comprehensive reform since 1986. A simpler, fairer tax code would save a typical family in the 23rd District an average of $600 annually.
We must work together to strengthen resources like local food banks and pantries that families rely on during their time of need. That's why I introduced The Fighting Hunger Incentive Act, which incentivizes restaurants and groceries to contribute excess inventory to local organizations working to fight poverty. It's only right and fair to bring together business and charitable groups to help them care for our neighbors.
I grew up here and, like all of you, I want our area to thrive and grow. We want more opportunities and a greater country for our kids. That's why I entered public service, and that's why I will continue the fight to bring jobs and economic security to the Southern Tier and Finger Lakes.
Reed, a Republican, lives in Corning.

Why Trump's MAGA crowds believe his lies and think he's hilarious
HalBrown / Daily Kos (10/21/2018)
The New York Times / YouTube
There are two aspects to the MAGA crowd who are cheering his lies and laughing at his nasty jokes that reasonable people should find troubling. One is their uncritical acceptance of any lie he tells and the other is how they respond with laughter at his cruel attempts at humor. There are two articles online today that focus on these phenomena.
Existential philosophers like Simone de Beauvoir and Jean-Paul Sartre wrote about bad faith. They described how people, "under pressure from social forces, adopt false values and disown their innate freedom." (Wikipedia) Their lessons are very much applicable to the way the MAGA crowds and the member of the GOP who are smart enough to know better, follow and enable Trump.
Consider how applicable the following is to cross-roads our democracy is currently at:
According to existentialism, dedicated professionals of their respective moral codes – priests interpreting sacred scriptures, lawyers interpreting the Constitution, doctors interpreting the Hippocratic oath – should, instead of divesting the self of responsibility in the discharge of one's duties, be aware of one's own significance in the process. This recognition involves the questioning of the morality of all choices, taking responsibility for the consequences of one's own choice and therefore; a constant reappraisal of one's own and others' ever-changing humanity. One must not exercise bad faith by denying the self's freedom of choice and accountability. Taking on the burden of personal accountability in all situations is an intimidating proposition – by pointing out the freedom of the individual, Sartre seeks to demonstrate that the social roles and moral systems we adopt protect us from being morally accountable for our actions. Wikipedia
Much continues to be written from a Christain perspective as to why this supposedly Christain president is the least worthy to wear the mantle of religiosity. For example, recently a pastor wrote in USA Today "Evangelicals are paying a high moral price for anti-abortion gains. What would Jesus do?"
Social scientists past and present have written about why people believe the lies of despots in fascist states. The first article which is from Slate article offers a good summary.
The second article from Politico which is about Trump's jokes is more descriptive than scientific. If you want to read some of the science explaining why people think humor depicting human suffering is funny, check out Study Reveals Why We Laugh at Disgusting Jokes from Live Science and Why we Laugh at things that are not Funny from Popular Social Science.
Why Trump's Supporters Will Believe Any Lie He Tells, from Slate
…in "The Authentic Appeal of the Lying Demagogue," explain that those who want to destroy the "political establishment" willingly embrace a liar because they understand that the lies themselves serve a destructive purpose. The people who want to destroy the political establishment today are those who are threatened by growing diversity. Trump's lies work toward that end.
In a totalitarian regime, state-controlled media normalizes the leader's constantly changing stories, which serves to further obliterate any notion of a shared truth. Trump's favorite news outlets similarly normalize his changing stories, thereby undermining factuality. When people can no longer sort out what is factual and what was invented, they conclude that the truth is unknowable. It's the ultimate in relativism and skepticism. Without facts and a shared reality, jury verdicts have no meaning, and the results of law enforcement investigations are easily manipulated or even dismissed.
Steve Bannon explained a broader administration strategy for dispensing with facts. "The real opposition is the media," he has said. "And the way to deal with them is to flood the zone with shit." Yale professor Timothy Snyder, in his groundbreaking book The Road to Unfreedom…
Trump's final aim isn't simply to escape accountability for his crimes. The final aim is to replace democracy itself with a form of autocracy, under which he and his cronies are forever unaccountable for criminal actions. Normalizing lies and flooding the zone shatters the public sphere upon which democracy depends. Without that shared reality, Mueller poses no threat to Trump. Similarly, without a shared public sphere, Trump doesn't have to worry about resistance. As Yale professor Jason Stanley says, without truth it is impossible to speak truth to power, so there is only power.
The United States is on a steep learning curve. Because truth, factuality, and our very public sphere are under attack, our democracy (and republic) is in danger. The attack is devastatingly effective, partly because we have never experienced anything like this and thus are largely unprepared. Our task now is to save our public sphere.
It would be interesting to have social scientists study what else people who believe the Trump lies he spins also believe and how gullible they are in general. Consider that The Flat Earth Society is still making the news: The Flat Earth is Back.
In MAGA world, Trump's jokes always land, Politico
The article includes comments from Trump supporters who find him funny. Here are some general excerpts:
Trump's brand of humor — cutting, insulting and sometimes even downright mean — has long offended and shocked the president's critics. But for his supporters and allies, Trump's irreverent jokes, which have become a central part of his increasingly frequent rallies across the country, are a feature, not a bug.
Trump's advisers say the president's crass sense of humor is at the core of his appeal to a conservative base that has rejected political correctness — and they're betting that his jokes, paired with his broader say-anything attitude, will help deliver a repeat of the success he saw in 2016, rallying Republicans ahead of the midterms and helping him get reelected in 2020.
Indeed, there's no hand-wringing or finger-pointing in the West Wing after the president delivers a crude one-liner. In fact, some Trump advisers, one of whom privately compared his rally performances to a stand-up comedy routine, have urged him to incorporate more wisecracks into his speeches.
David Litt, a former Obama speechwriter who helped craft jokes for the 44th president's WHCA addresses and is now a writer for "Funny or Die," said Trump's humor is often based in cruelty.
"He weaponizes what he would call jokes to an unprecedented extent," Litt said. "All of the examples of him telling a joke are also examples of him being a bully."
Litt added that the laughter at Trump's rallies "is about solidifying a tribal identity at the expense of someone else. It's laughter in agreement rather than laughter because something is funny."
There is a world of reasonable decent people who live by a code of ethics and personal morality, who feel shame and guilt when they do something to hurt others. They may have laughed at Don Rickles but knew that his schtick was finely tuned insult humor but that his moniker "Mr. Warmth" was not only meant to be ironic but that underneath the persona was a good-hearted person.
Don Rickles, who Frank Sinatra insisted perform unrehearsed at Ronald Reagan's second inaugural ball, was sometimes called the "Merchant of Venom." Rickles called this the performance of his life.
The other Don never headlined in Vegas but had a brainless TV show which made him famous enough to become president. He is the true merchant of venom because he carries venom in his veins and he spews it whenever he opens his mouth.

Trumps cult is made up of cowards who hid under a rock in fear of President Obama for eight years, then caught a whiff of Trump's racism, sexism and hatred and came out to help him STEAL the election! His base is made up of slimy gits who complained about a Democratic Black President for eight freaking years by mumbling their disapproval to themselves, then reared their ugly heads when Trump displayed in public what they were already cowardly thinking!

If you want to out-wrestle the pig, you need to get just as dirty, and enjoy it more! Civility, willingness to compromise, and empathy (on the part of Democrats) have allowed the GOP to batter down the door and thrust tRump into the Oval Office.

var str = viewModel.application.appKey

into data-uuid
probably using jquery.
Please help!

A:

//Method 1
var $player = document.getElementById('applicationVideo'),
    str = viewModel.application.appKey;

$player.setAttribute('data-uuid', str);

//Method 2
$('#applicationVideo').attr('data-uuid', str);
<player id="applicationVideo" data-uuid="xxx"></player>

The Essential Love Songs of Philadelphia: "Baby's Arms" by Kurt Vile
February 10th, 2019 | 4:13PM | By John Vettese

Every day leading up to Valentine's Day this year, The Key is recapping 14 songs that scream "love" just as strongly as they scream "Philly." The Essential Love Songs of Philadelphia continues with "Baby's Arms" from Kurt Vile's 2010 album Smoke Ring For My Halo.
It's hard to imagine Kurt Vile as anything but a goof. He's the person with a smarmy half-smirk looking at you from out of the album cover of Bottle It In. He pays compliments to the fashion choices of his own reflection in "Pretty Pimpin'." He wrote an entire song, "Loading Zones," about how to find free parking in Philadelphia. And the wordplay; Vile is big into wordplay, and at the opening of his 2013 album Wakin' On A Pretty Daze, he combines his prankster and poet leanings for a lyric that is possibly peak KV: "Risin' at the crack of dawn / And I gotta think about what wisecracks I'm going to drop along the way."
Acclaimed guitarist, spectacular vibe-caster, noted smartass — that's our Kurt. Except for those moments when he's being unexpectedly, unabashedly, heart-warmingly sincere. The song that opens his pop breakthrough LP, 2011's Smoke Ring For My Halo, is one such moment.
"Baby's Arms" is a dreamlike wash of fingerpicked acoustic guitar and atmospheric instrumental elements — reverb-soaked maraca percussion, wandering Fripp-style guitar backings — and it serves as a gentle lead-in to the record where Vile discusses, with candor, the love of his life. Or is it loves?
The opening lyric "There has been but one true love" certainly gives the impression that Vile is singing about his wife, Suzanne Lang. Lyrics later on reinforce this — "I get sick of just about everyone / And I hide in my baby's arms," a relatable sentiment not just for anybody in the limelight the way Vile has been for half his adult life, but for anybody who has, like, been out in the world and had to interact with anyone on any level. People suck; take comfort in those who you love.
But think about where Vile was in his life when he wrote this song in 2010; he and Lang had just become parents to their first daughter, Awilda. As he told Vanity Fair last fall, "People said, 'Pretty soon you're going to be writing all these dad songs—songs about your kid.' I said, 'No, I'm not. That's bullshit.'…And then she came, and immediately I started writing reflective songs. Because it's, like, a magic experience."
Go back and listen again, and notice how the "baby's arms" and "baby's hands" lyrics can often work both ways. "I will never ever ever be alone / Cuz it's all in my baby's hands" — could be about how the next generation, Awilda's generation, shapes the future, or it could be about Lang has been a supportive rock in Vile's career (another theme that recurs in interviews). Or, "except for her / There just ain't nothing to latch onto."
Or back to that opening (and closing) lyric — "There has been but one true love in my baby's arms." It's the love of partners, as much as it's the love of seeing your partner hold your child in their arms. It's the love of a close-knit family, told through clever wordplay, because of course Vile wouldn't have it any other way.

How Gore won by losing the presidency.
The loser of the 2000 election may yet be the winner.
I couldn't agree more with the first statement. About the second, I continue to have my doubts. The recent, carbon-neutral Gore boomlet misses a curious aspect of his political career. As his movie unintentionally illustrates, the farther the former vice president gets from electoral politics, the more he seems to accomplish in his principal cause, raising the alarm about global warming. If you care about this issue—and the film makes an overwhelming case that everyone must—you should hope he continues his crusade from outside the White House.
An Inconvenient Truth is flawed in a number of ways. For those who have read a substantial book on the subject, such as Tim Flannery's The Weather Makers or Elizabeth Kolbert's Field Notes From a Catastrophe, it will contain little that is new. It is afflicted with a number of inconsistencies and exaggerations, such as the suggestion that polar melt could cause sea levels to rise 20 feet and leave much of Manhattan underwater. It suffers from Gore's labored, condescending manner and is cast too much in terms of his highly polished personal "journey" for my taste.
It is, nonetheless, fully successful in its effort to explain a tricky, technical issue of the greatest imaginable consequence. Gore's real talent has always been for popularizing science. His illustration of consequences we may face—drought, famine, and a mass exodus of refugees in South Asia, epidemics, catastrophic storms, drowning polar bears, and the possibility of a new ice age in Europe—are vivid and terrifying. "A nature hike through the Book of Revelation," he calls it at one point. One cannot leave the theater without understanding that climate change is real, man-made, and an urgent threat to everything we value.
Gore has done more than any other person to forge a public appreciation of these points. An irony of his career is that he has produced more movement on the issue as a freelance professor than as a politician. Gore has been on to the problem of carbon emissions since studying with the pioneering scientist Roger Revelle at Harvard in the late 1960s. He held the first congressional hearings on the subject in 1980 and used his long-shot 1988 presidential bid to draw attention to it. After he lost that election, Gore wrote his book Earth in the Balance, which was one of the first attempts to explain the issue to a mass audience. He also began presenting a slide-lecture version of the keynote presentation (not PowerPoint—he's a Mac man) that grew into An Inconvenient Truth.
Yet when he ran in 1992 for vice president, Gore made very little of the greenhouse effect. It was the Republicans who raised the issue, to tease him as an environmental extremist. Climate change was not a major theme of the Clinton years, and little progress was made while Gore served in the White House. His only significant act over eight years was to help negotiate a Kyoto treaty that the Clinton administration never submitted to the Senate for ratification. One might argue that the problem was Gore's limited power within the administration. But a better explanation is probably that Gore was too worried about his own future to press the case harder. Running for president in 2000, he downplayed environmental concerns in general, for fear of again being caricatured as "ozone man." Faced with what his political consultants viewed as a potential liability, he abandoned the cause nearest his heart.
With his political career seemingly finished after 2000, Gore returned to the issue with pedantic passion, lugging his laptop through airports and presenting his slide lecture—more than 1,000 times, he claims. This advocacy, which is both depicted and captured in the film, has, with the assistance of scientific unanimity, helped to transform public consciousness in a way Gore never accomplished in elective office. Because of this not-yet-triumphant crusade, Gore may eventually have the last laugh, coming to be seen as a more important leader than our 43rd president and perhaps even than our 42nd. He may one day be regarded as the political hero of his era—a man who saved the world not by winning the presidency, but because he lost it.

Q: Integrating changes in the kernel using Yocto using patches If you want to modify the linux kernel such that it excludes certain modules, you usually go to /kernel/msm-4.9/arch/arm/configs/vendor/<machine-name>_defconfig, which has a bunch of Kconfig symbols, and the ones I want to exclude are commented out, as shown below.
CONFIG_PPP=y
#CONFIG_PPPOL2TP=y
CONFIG_PPP_ASYNC=y

Then I build the linux image by running bitbake virtual/kernel which should ideally have my changes integrated, but when I boot the image, I still see some of the logs of the commented module showing up.
I checked yocto documentation and looks like they create a patch of the file they want to modify, and then append that modified file in the .bbappend file like:
 FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "${THISDIR}/${PN}:"

 SRC_URI += "file://0001-calibrate-Add-printk-example.patch"

So in my case, if I were to modify /kernel/msm-4.9/arch/arm/configs/vendor/<machine-name>_defconfig, I would:

*

*create a copy of this original file

*paste it into poky/meta-bsp/recipes-kernel/linux-msm/files

*rename it

*include this file in the .bbappend (as shown above)

But how will the above patch override the original /kernel/msm-4.9/arch/arm/configs/vendor/<machine-name>_defconfig that I planned on modifying by this approach?

A: You are right, sources modifications are done with help of patches in Yocto. Answering your question

But how will the above patch override the original /kernel/msm-4.9/arch/arm/configs/vendor/_defconfig that I planned on modifying by this approach?

it is done automagically:)
That is, build system (bitbake) automatically detects files with extension .patch among SRC_URI content, copies those files from meta-layer directory to build directory somewhere under build/tmp/work/... and automatically applies thous patches on source code (sources directory is defined by S variable in recipe).
But there are some recommendations about other stuff in your question. Some concepts here, skip it to the right way is or even fast way below if bored))
One of the main ideas behind Yocto is reproducible and extensible builds. That means, that all metadata is split into different repositories (that is layers), that are maintained by different teams. Basically teams do not have access to each others repos and none has access to some external project (kernel in your case) source code. Of cource, one may create git-forks of all this, but this is way more complicated than writing metadata. That's why Yocto was created - to take external metadata (ex., poky layer), source code ('kernel') and make it work only by writing your one metadata (your own layer), with no any git-forks.
So, adding your patch and .bbappend to poky layer make no sense, because you wouldn't be able to commit poky layer and distribute this to your customers - poky layer belongs not to you) You may create git-fork however, but that complicates the process of distribution.
That's why the right way is:

*

*create your own BSP-layer

*create .bbappend in your layer

*add patch to the kernel in your layer (actually the right way is to use .scc files, put patch also will go)

This shall make your build

*

*reproducible - rerunning kernel compilation, or even fresh clone of Yocto with your BSP-layer, would be able to produce the same kernel

*distributable (extensible) - customers need only your BSP-layer, other Yocto stuff may be found on internet

And finally, the fast way. If you don't need all this reproducible and extensible but just build some stuff for your home-project and send Yocto to trash, hack the build like this:

*

*clean all kernel-stuff you have bitbake -c cleansstate virtual/kernel

*get kernel sources (clone and patch) bitbake -c patch virtual/kernel

*handle manually everything you need in kernel sources, found somewhere on working stuff like <TOPDIR>/build/tmp/work/<machine-name>-poky-linux-gnueabi/linux-yocto/<version>/git

*build the kernel bitbake -c package virtual/kernel (cloning and patching would be skipped, as bitbake remembers this tasks are done; kernel build artifacts wouldn't be removed, because task rm_work goes after package, and kernel stuff actually is never removed)

But in this case, if this kernel stuff is removed, or breaks somehow, you'll have to walk through this algorithm again (remember - not reproducible).
To easy rebuild the kernel manually (not through bitbake) you can run script <TOPDIR>/build/tmp/work/<machine-name>-poky-linux-gnueabi/linux-yocto/<version>/temp/run.do_compile


While Thanksgiving is a national family holiday in the U.S., not all students are able to travel back to see their family during the five-day break, and have to find ways to celebrate on campus.
Americans tend to travel to spend time with their loved ones, especially around this time of year. According to the AAA, one of the oldest automobile organizations in America, about 50.9 million Americans were projected to travel for Thanksgiving in 2017. However, for some Mason students, travelling home for the holiday is not always an option due to many reasons.
The lack of financial resources is a common one. During Thanksgiving, the prices of air fare and tickets for other sources of transportation skyrocket. Out-of-state and international students generally prefer to save money and stay at school, either in dorms or their off-campus residences.
Dash, a freshman civil engineering major, expressed a similar feeling. "We miss our friends and family, but with all the expenses here in Mason, it becomes hard to visit family during Thanksgiving," said Dash.
Another reason why students might not go home during Thanksgiving break is because of school. Some students prefer to catch up with their studies, as working on assignments or exams during this break could benefit those students who lag behind their courses.
Hundreds of international students reside in Mason's dorms, or live near the school. Generally, Thanksgiving is not a part of their culture or norms. Despite the break they prefer to stay back and take advantage of Thanksgiving by enjoying deep discounts in Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales.
Understanding that Thanksgiving can be an emotional time for students who are away from their families, "Mason gives a chance for students who live in dorms by arranging Thanksgiving dinner for the students who do not get to visit their families," according to Elim, a graduate student studying statistical science.
"I have already signed up for that dinner and it would be lot of fun, you no longer feel sad and lonely," Elim said.
If you're a student staying on-campus for Thanksgiving, don't worry. You can still celebrate by signing up for Thanksgiving dinner like Elim did or in your own ways.

We value the individual differences each child brings to the classroom. The richness of our academic programs encourages students to connect separate elements of knowledge to a coherent perspective of the whole, thus producing insightful creative and analytical thinkers. The very diverse cultural backgrounds and learning styles of our student population makes The Aryan School an ideal setting of minds to grow.
I have associated with The Aryan School, since 2004, grooming foreign students in ELT. 'Special class' caters to the need of the slow learners wherein the individualized attention in each subject helps the learner to learn at his/her own pace and have a better grasp of the concepts.
I believe that 'Each child is a gift of God' entrusted to our care and has lot of potential which needs to be channelized well.

The Division of Drinking Water (DDW) Lowers PFAS Notification and Response Levels
Tue Jul 30th, On Environmental Law, by Julieanne Nguyen
Considerable measures have been taken to minimize the public's exposure to Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and Perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS), two chemicals categorized into a larger group known as Per – Polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). With everyday items – such as food packaging, fire-fighting foam, stain- and water-repellant fabrics in some carpeting and clothing, non-stick pans, among others – laced with these chemicals, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has carefully studied the harmful effects these substances may cause. It has been disclosed that exposure to these chemicals at certain levels may result in fetal developmental issues, cancer, and various other adverse health effects. Due to the potential risk, health guidelines have been established. With drinking water becoming a primary concern, EPA announced a lifetime health advisory for PFAS in drinking water in May 2016. This mandates a PFAS warning to consumers if contaminants exceeded the levels over 70 parts per trillion in the community drinking water supply.
States have also begun regulating PFAS; many, including California, have imposed more strict guidelines. For example, on June 26, 2018, the Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) recommended the Division of Drinking Water (DDW) to determine notification levels for PFOA based on liver toxicity risks and PFOS based on immunotoxicity. As a result, DDW set the notification levels in California extremely low: at 14 parts per trillion and 13 parts per trillion for PFOA and PFOS, respectively. In early July 2019, DDW informally announced to water manufacturers that it intended drop the notification levels even further, starting on July 8: to 5.1 parts per trillion for PFOA and 13 parts per trillion for PFOS.
In cases where the concentration of contaminants surpass the amount specified by the notification levels, a response level is applied. The response level in California was originally set at the EPA notification level: 70 parts per trillion for PFOA and PFOS combined. DDW's early-July notification to water manufacturers, however, disclosed that it intended to lower the response level to 10 parts per trillion for PFOA and 40 parts per trillion for PFOS, starting July 8.
Despite DDW's early-July "informal" announcement of its intent to lower the notification and response level for PFOA and PFOS by July 8, no formal announcement has yet been released; and such lowering of levels has not yet been implemented. At least one entity sent in comments objecting to DDW's intent to lowering the notification and response levels[ as such an action would allegedly have "unintended consequences"—e.g., "Water systems would … be compelled to remove numerous wells – at least 30% or more for many impacted water systems – that, notwithstanding PFOA and PFOS, are in compliance of existing drinking water regulations."
The California Environmental Attorneys at Bick Law LLP will continue to monitor the Division of Drinking Water's potential changes to PFAS notification and response levels.
