Maiju Tirri – Chasing the Ice
Maiju Tirri (FI)
Chasing the Ice
Wadström Tönnheim Gallery, Marbella
11 September, 2020 – 9 January, 2021 (dates extended due to the Covid19 pandemic)
The former Spanish based artist Maiju Tirri makes her first collaboration with Wadström Tönnheim Gallery when she exhibits her new series of sculptures made out of recycled glass, resin and paint. Vernissage for Maiju Tirris new exhibition "Chasing the Ice" is Friday 11 of September 19.30-22.00h.
– The globe is getting warmer. And fast. Glaciers are melting. New forms of devastating natural disasters and climate change are occurring. Everything is happening rapidly. The melting of glaciers due to global warming is expected to have devastating consequences. We have to wake up to the fierce urgency and act to prevent further damages to our earth and save ourselves from ourselves. Because I think and believe that we do care. And that we can do our part. These art pieces with a resemblance of ice are just a reminder for us all, that even small actions matter, says the Finish artist Maiju Tirri.
Finnish artist Maiju Tirri has lived by the frozen sea and been surrounded by ice and snow most of her childhood winters. She has always been overwhelmed by the beauty of the winters, which no longer are as cold and white as the used to be. Maiju has therefor created art around this theme to do her part and awaken us. Something fascinating and beautiful is made out of the ugly truth to touch the soul of the viewer. Maiju Tirri uses recycled glass, resin and paint to create the illusion of ice.
Maiju Tirri, based in Helsinki (Finland), has had various solo and group exhibitions around Europe. Her large abstract works are has in various public and private collections in Europe, Middle East and US. And she has a degree in Arts and Design from Finland's South west Institute of Arts and Crafts.
Address and opening hours: Poligono Nueva Campana, Local 37B, Nueva Andalucia (Marbella). Open by appointment Monday to Saturday at any time. The exhibition will go on until the 31 of October 2020. Because of the Covid19 situation and the surrounding circumstances and restrictions there can be a change in opening hours or visiting capacity due to new regulations.

FEEL THE NEED
Posted on mars 6, 2020
THANK YOU FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING AND LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR VISIT. THE ART WORLD NEEDS YOU MORE NOW THAN EVER! WELCOME TO CONTACT ME AT +46 704-411914 or mattias@wadstromtonnheim.se
Wadström Tönnheim Gallery starts out the season with solo shows by two, and in their own unique way, minimalistic Spanish artists. The established (Andalusian based) conceptual painter José Medina Galeote shows his exhibition "Feel the need", and the Madrid based Sculptor Odnoder (represented by gallery Espacio Primavera 9) who creates most of his art work in wood. In the new show room in the front space it will be a design exhibition by the brand Ferromagno who will display its latest collection created by their designer Andrea Di Carlo. Andrea presents "Verses of Texture", a clearly defined series of artistic objects which find in craftsmanship their milestone to reach excellence.
José Medina Galeote makes use of painting and its conceptual derivations to reflect on the pictorial act itself. The reproduction of objects and drawings in different media and on different material allows him to present the spectator with a type of game that can be challenging, violent or disturbing. In it, the roles of artist and viewer seem to become confused or to change places, but this game inevitably leads to a profound reflection on artistic practices in general and on painting in particular. Galeote has been able to combine the age-old questioning of the nature of painting (almost as old as the art form itself) with a language or device such as camouflage, which was fully developed from the early 20th century and onwards. It is here that we encounter one of the numerous transferences between art and war. This is because artistic formulas frequently originating in Cubism and Surrealism were applied to the art of war in order to obtain protective camouflage. One such example is "dazzle" painting, which was indebted to Cubism and which basically consisted in making an object unrecognizable through the application of stripes or other geometrical lines or colors.
Galeote has succeeded in construction a particular aesthetic that makes him stand out in a radical manner, both stylistically and in the ideas that underlie his artistic strategy, which has acquired coherence over the course of time. This has come about through the judicious encounter that he has established between camouflage and a meta-pictorial investigation that has led him to constantly question the specific characteristics of painting and drawing from the standpoint of those disciplines themselves. In contrast to other artists who devote themselves to the aesthetic of camouflage, Galeote stands out for not using it in a particularly critical or political way, not as an exercise of militant resistance but as a way of investigating painting. Also on an aesthetic level, his work has clear references to the minimal and conceptual art of the 1960: artists like Bruce Nauman, Trisha Brown or Ivonne Rayner became their work a source of research and experimentation artistic. They questioned the very concept of representation and led to the art to a basic exploration of reality. Galeote has exhibited in several important solo and group exhibitions such as Contemporary Art Center Málaga. BIENNAL ART CONTEMPORARY Pamplona, BIENNAL DE Valencia and Centre Pompidou.
Odnoder (full name Pablo Redondo Díez) creative process follows a subtle dialogue between inspiration and the nature of the work material. Each wood has a different cellular structure, and each piece has a unique arrangement of knots and veins. Some woods give great freedom to be carved. Others require not just departing from the mode of growth of the tree they come from. Some slender forms need an oily wood, such as Burmese teak. Others ask for the expressiveness of the veins of the olive tree, the diamond-shaped texture of an oak, or the color of the lemongrass.
Many moments of inspiration comes to Odnoder in the middle of nature, walking alone in the mountains. Some logs that he find along the way suggest a certain way. On other occasions he has the form imagined, waiting for a piece of wood capable of housing it. In both cases, when he start carving a piece of wood, the shape he has in his head is altered by the interior structure of the piece, invisible from the outside. The wood speaks to Odnoder and he is modifying any previous idea to adapt to it. While creating he like to think that something similar happens when a person attracts you and you begin to feel before you know. Its exterior appearance is the first thing that inspires you, but its presence is modified by discovering the mysteries of its interior. Odnoder has been exhibited at galleries and art fairs in the south of Europe.
Andrea Di Carlo presents Verses of Texture, a clearly defined series of artistic objects which find in craftsmanship their milestone to reach excellence. This carefully arranged collection of craft works not only revisits and refreshes traditional and popular craftsmanship, thanks to a meditated recovery of techniques, noble materials and classic construction processes, but it also succeeds in integrating in a natural way in the areas of conceptual research and development of the most contemporary creations. Her pieces have been designed and created with a site specific character, carrying a calling to fill defined spaces with a soul and energy of their own.
For this new show the designer has nurtured – as has become a tradition in her methodology – of her own experience, experimentation and the possibilities inherent to each material, and in this way delving into new ways of making: using technological abilities at the service of her imagination in order to question us with unique objects awaiting to be lived. Andrea Di Carlo is an Argentinian designer based in southern Spain, and her creations come to life under the brand Ferromagno.
Address: Poligono Nueva Campana, Local 37B, Nueva Andalucia (Marbella).
Wadström Tönnheim Gallery exhibits at Drawing Room art fair in Madrid
Posted on februari 28, 2020
Wadström Tönnheim Gallery, based in Marbella Spain, participates at Drawing Room art fair in Madrid, which is open from Wednesday the 26th of February until Sunday the 1 of March. Wadström Tönnheim Gallery exhibits the following artists Maria José Gallardo (from Spain, based in Sevilla), Ana Velez (from Portugal, based in Lisbon and Madrid) and Daniel Fleur (from Sweden, based in Malmö), whom also is represented by the gallery.
– It is a new take for us participating at this small emerging, but yet promising and influential, contemporary art fair. Considering Drawing Room is a niched art fair specialized in works on paper and drawings, says Mattias Tönnheim director for Wadström Tönnheim Gallery and continues:
– We are bringing works in different sizes and price ranges for all type of collectors and clients. MariaJosé Gallardo detail oriented and figurative works together with Ana Velez exploratory and abstract but yet sensitive paper ink transfers presented together with Daniel Fleurs elaborating drawings that examines the substance of the digital image and its relation to painting creates a dynamic visual context.
DANIEL FLEUR, (born 1992). Lives and works in Malmö, Sweden. Daniel has a Masters of Fine Arts from Malmö Art Academy. What is painting in a world saturated with digital images that constantly surround us? Color and light turn into images. What is the substance of the digital image and what is its relation to painting? A specific light, a few seconds shutter speed, has been frozen and digitized. The photograph of the painting has then served as the starting point for a new painting. Translation of information and compression creates deviations. A small change in color temperature can cause major changes. But also, the impact of technology on the alteration of a picture. The images oscillate between dematerialization and materialization. There is a confrontation or a meeting between coded information and the haptic qualities of painting that in itself influences the image. The paintings carry their past in their present state. But the paintings are never static. It's not simply about a then and a now, it's also about a future, in which the image continues to undergo changes. Daniel has already been exhibited at numerous established galleries and art fairs around Europe.
MARIAJOSÉ GALLARDO, (born 1978). Lives and work in Sevilla Spain. MariaJosé has a Bachelor of Fine Arts with the specialty of Design and Engraving from Sta. Isabel de Hungría in Sevilla. She is represented at several prestigious collections and has been exhibited in several museums/institutions and galleries in Spain and south America. MariaJosé Gallardo has always found stimuli in emblems and the narrowing baroque shutter, the ornamental, the psychoanalysis of the torture – when a sycophant has been placed in manifest abstracted from other analytical context-, the ridicule of imagery, the frivolous popular culture and holistic, broth unknown everyday qualities, to some extent, of perversion. Placing around the board game a madman's family circle, can be descriptive, narrative and dismal. To make a collection of the extract so that the wicked may have another condition, can also be wrapped in certain provocation.
ANA VELEZ, (born 1982). Lives and works in Lisbon, Portugal. Ana has a Masters in Fine Arts from Faculdade de Belas-Artes da Universidade de Lisboa, Lisbon, Portugal. Her work has been marked by solo and group exhibitions at the institutional level, but also by collective projects of urban art. She is co-founder and active member of Vazarte, a multidisciplinary collective dedicated to create reflective art projects, art spaces and urban art creations. In her work she has established drawing as a directional tool, inquiring about its multiple material possibilities, which led her to develop her work also in the public space. There she made a series of pictorial interventions on damaged or already disappeared buildings. She addresses themes that go around the concept of identity, based on three ideas: place, memory and body, highlighting place as the container of memory and identity. Her work is part of several institutional and private collections, both national and international.
Luca Zarattini "There is music and music" 211119 – 100120
Wadström Tönnheim Gallery and international art curator Irina Machneva Mota present, for the first time in Spain, the latest series of works from the emerging Italian artist Luca Zarattini (b. 1984, Ferrara). The project "There is music and music" is dedicated to one of the greatest composers of the second half of the 20th century – Luciano Berio, and has taken a name of his famous TV program "C'è musica e musica".
Fifteen paintings is a graceful result of a complex research on a subtle relationship between painting and music by the artist to discover a new way of looking at still-life through merging musical and pictorial compositions into the space of the canvas. Through the attempts of capturing essence of the music in a painting he creates a bridge between these two arts, showing how they enliven each other in astounding ways when they are combined.
Inspired by musical compositions like John Coltrane's A Love Supreme, Miles Davis' In a Silent Way, Luciano Berio's Stanze, Luca Zarattini acts as a conductor of images, thereby letting the music of colors, lines, drawings of human and animal figures, plants and vases sound in his large format paintings. He reveals the reality of an art work by dividing the music piece into elements of his associations that must be reunited in harmony on his canvas in a tangible form, each on its time and place.
The work process itself is extremely important for the artist, involving a meditative focus on the canvas while listening to the works of great musicians, masters of improvisation and experimentation. He seeks to express his mystical experience. "What truly interests me is the journey. For this reason, I feel close to the jazz musician during a night jam session, when one listens to another" – says Luca.
The artist's picturesque language – lively, vibrating like a sound – makes the viewer feel the rhythm of the music, the movement of his hand, the musicality in all the fragments, lines, elements, and most importantly, the enjoyment of the sensual enigma of creating through the dialog with the great musicians, while becoming a music himself.
At the opening night, the artist accompanied by the jazz musician Gianluca Fortini will present an improvisational music performance.
Irina Machneva Mota
Luca Zarattini (b. 1984, Ferrara/Codigoro). He currently lives and works between Ferrara and Rome. He graduated on July of 2009 from the Academy of Fine Arts in Bologna.
Address and opening hours: Poligono Nueva Campana, Local 37B, Nueva Andalucia (Marbella). Open Monday to Friday 15.00-19.00 or any day and time by appointment. The exhibition will go on until the 10 of January 2020.

Strike by Northern Illinois Bay Valley Foods workers enters ninth week
By George Gallanis
On Tuesday, some 94 workers at the Bay Valley Foods in Pecatonica, Illinois, 15 miles west of Rockford, began the ninth week of their strike against the food distributing company. Striking outside of the Bay Valley Foods plant for nearly 24 hours a day for the past 75 days, the workers have tenaciously withstood the bitter cold of the Midwest's ongoing winter.
Teamsters Local 754 called the strike on November 12 after negotiations, which began in May, failed to produce an agreement they could get rank-and-file workers to accept. Workers are striking to oppose increases in health care costs, win improved pension funding and block Bay Valley Foods from moving the plant to Iowa, according the union.
Food workers on strike in Illinois
Union and Bay Valley Foods representatives have met with federal mediators several times since the strike began but, according to media reports, both sides cannot reach an agreement on health care costs.
Bay Valley Foods, which produces private label foods and food service goods, is a subsidiary of TreeHouse Foods, a multinational food processing company, ranked 427 on the Fortune 500 list in 2017. In 2014, it brought in $2.9 billion of revenue. Notably, from 2005 to 2007 former first lady Michelle Obama served on the board of directors.
According to Indeed.com, a machine operator for Bay Valley Foods makes $13.28 an hour, a senior machine operator makes $12.83 an hour and an assembler makes $11.18.
Ben, one of the striking workers, told the World Socialist Web Site workers had walked out because "Treehouse Foods has gutted our current contract and wants to implement measures that would in essence break the union." He said workers are demanding an increase in wages, "job preservation, and an increase in our pension contribution from Treehouse Foods."
Ben added, "Treehouse Foods has a philosophy of arrogance and power. They have hired non-union temp workers to do our jobs and at a great expense a security firm to patrol, harass and attempt to intimidate us during this long strike."
When asked about unifying the working class in a common struggle against the exploitation of workers around the world by the corporations, he said, "I think unifying the working class is a more productive approach to opposing the corporate war against workers. All unions should be fighting the battle for better wages and benefits."
A genuine fight by workers would receive popular support around the Rockford area, where thousands of workers, including Fiat Chrysler workers at the Belvidere plant, are anxious to recoup lost wages and benefits, handed over by the Teamsters, the UAW and other unions. Once a major hub of machine tools, farm machinery, furniture and fastener manufacturing, surrounding Winnebago County now has an official poverty rate of 15.9 percent, with 25 percent of young people under the age of 18 living below the poverty line.
This regression is the product of decades of collusion by the pro-capitalist and nationalist unions in the name of making US corporations more competitive and profitable, while politically subordinating workers to the corporate-controlled Democrats. The Teamsters are now praising the "American First" nationalism of Trump, even as he hands over trillions in tax cuts to big business.
If the Bay Valley Foods strike is not to be defeated, like so many struggles before it, rank-and-file workers must take the conduct of the struggle into their own hands. Rank-and-file strike committees should be elected to establish lines of communication, including through social media, with workers and young people to mobilize the broadest support for this fight.
Workers must be warned, however, that the Teamsters are colluding with the federal mediators and the company to impose yet another concession contract. Teamsters Local 754 principal officer Chuck Murdoch told a local news outlet, "These members have been making sacrifices for the past eight years. Their last contract took away any matching into their 401k, so they're fed up and they're out here, unfortunately, fighting for their rights."
These givebacks did not fall from the sky, they were imposed by the Teamsters, which are trying to the same thing again. "We gave the company an offer they could've accepted back in September," Murdoch acknowledged. "It was a reasonable offer. They rejected it. They chose to go down this road, knowing we'd go on strike. But they've been jamming contracts down these guy's throats for eight years, and they're not going to let it happen anymore."
This makes it clear that it is only the opposition of the rank-and-file workers that has prevented the Teamsters from signing another miserable deal. This opposition must now be broadened.

The first step needed top maintain the garage door in good conditions for years is to talk with the Garage Door Repair College Park company to check the garage door frequently. This way, the specialists will determine if all the pieces are fixed, and if the springs and the rolls are perfectly. Remember that those parts are the first that are worn; therefore they will need to be replaced often. However, if you decide to use the services of this Garage Door Repair College Park Company, you will benefit of complete maintenance, and you will probably have a good door for the years to come.
The garage door company will check the springs first, and for this, the motors must be unplugged. The door will probably open and close easily, as it does not has an excessive weight. If the door has the tendency to slam, it probably means that the springs must be replaced, and in this case, the support of the garage door service is needed.
If the garage door was installed correctly, the rolls on the exterior side might still work. In case a spring is more damaged than the others are, and the lateral pieces are not straight, the door might have more weight, and this is why closing and opening the door will probably be more difficult.
The Garage Door Repair College Park Company uses special methods to determine if the weight of the door is distributed uniformly, and this weighting will probably tell us if the door needs a Garage door cable repair.
The sectioned doors are in the top of preferences for the citizens of College Park today, as they offer more space in the interior of the garage, and more maneuvering space. Those doors are mounted behind the empty space, offering an increased resistance to the garage door tracks.
The garage doors come in different models and sizes, and this is why a broken garage door spring must be carefully evaluated by our specialists. This way, they will determine what devices are needed, and what is needed to be done for the respective door. It is one thing to do a genie opener repair, and another to fix a liftmaster garage door opener.
No matter how sophisticated the door is, it must make a simple function, allowing the car to enter and to exit the garage. You must consider this aspect when you establish the dimensions of the door. As for the right door, it depends on many factors. Of you have a separate garage from the rest of the house, you will need one kind of garage door, and if you need a door for a garage that is integrated in the house, you will need another type of door. The normal garages, built at the level of the ground, are suitable for any type of door, but you will need the advices of the professionals here also, as you might have the broken garage door spring problem more often, if you choose the wring type of door.
No matter what problem you would have with your garage, and even if you would be tempted to choose the offers of other companies in the area, remember that we are the most professional, and maybe the only ones that could fix a garage opener remote with ease, but also to make other useful adjustments to your garage door.

Broken Arrow Suspect's Appeal Denied; He Will Be Tried as an Adult
A 16-year-old boy accused of working with his older brother to savagely murder five members of his family and attempt to kill at least one more will stand trial as an adult after losing his appeal.
Michael Bever, 16, and his brother Robert Bever, 18, are each charged with five counts of first degree murder in the stabbing deaths of their mother, father, brothers (aged 12 and 7), and sister (aged 5). They are also each charged with assault and battery with intent to kill in the stabbing of a 13-year-old sister who survived the assault. A 2-year-old sister was unharmed.
Under Oklahoma law, any juvenile aged 15, 16, or 17 accused of first degree murder is charged as an adult. Juveniles aged 13 or 14 who are charged with first degree murder are charged as adults, but they may be able to be certified as a youthful offender instead.
An attorney for Michael Bever challenged the law which automatically certifies a 15, 16, or 17-year-old as an adult, saying the law does not allow for due process for these juvenile offenders, and it does not take into consideration the fact that teenagers brains are not yet fully developed. He argued that allowing adult sentencing for a child is a violation of the Eighth Amendment prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment. After all, a life sentence for a 50-year-old is likely much, much shorter than the same sentence for a 16-year-old.
The lawyer told the court, "This case presents the court with an opportunity to reconcile provisions of the Oklahoma penal and Oklahoma children's code in a way that's not possible under current the statutory scheme."
The Tulsa County District Attorney, Steve Kunzweiler disputed the unconstitutionality of the law, pointing out that nearly 30 other jurisdictions have similar laws regarding the prosecution of juvenile murder suspects as adults, and saying that the law does not require a judge or jury to give a life sentence to a juvenile defendant convicted of first degree murder.
After only ten minutes of conference, the Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals announced its ruling rejecting the teen's appeal and upholding the state's statute requiring minors aged 15, 16, or 17 to be charged as adults in first degree murder cases.
The Bever brothers have been held without bond since their arrest in late July after a child called 9-1-1 to report his brothers were attacking the family before the line went dead. When police arrived, the 13-year-old sister who survived the attack also identified her brothers as the assailants. Police found the two hiding in the woods a short distance away from the family home.
Preliminary hearing conferences for the two have been rescheduled for February 23 and 24.

Q: Why is jquery-ui-core enqueueing in my footer instead of the header? This is what I'm using to make sure that I have jquery-ui-core available:
if (!is_admin()) add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'zg_load_scripts');
function zg_load_scripts(){
    wp_enqueue_script("jquery-ui-core");
}

I also tried wp_enqueue_script("jquery-ui-core", null, null, false, false); in a vain attempt to force it into the header. No dice. What's going on here?

A: Why do you need it in the header?
It's enqueuing in the footer because when it was registered it was set to enqueue in the footer.
In wp-includes/script-loader.php:
$scripts->add( 'jquery-ui-core', '/wp-includes/js/jquery/ui.core.js', array('jquery'), '1.8.12' );
$scripts->add_data( 'jquery-ui-core', 'group', 1 );

The second line forces it to load in the footer. You could deregister the script, then re-enqueue it in the header:
<?php
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'zg_load_scripts');
function zg_load_scripts(){
    if( is_admin() ) return;
    wp_deregister_script( 'jquery-ui-core' );
    wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery-ui-core', site_url(  '/wp-includes/js/jquery/ui.core.js' ), array('jquery'), '1.8.12' );
}

We could not recommend you enough. So really, just to reiterate how grateful we are for all of your flexibility and allowing us to have the relaxed fun day evening that we wanted.

Uganda's ruling party endorses Museveni for sixth-term run
By AFP - 20 February 2019 - 14:53
Uganda's President Yoweri Museveni has been endorsed as his party's candidate in the next presidential election.
Image: EDUARDO SOTERAS / AFP
Uganda's ruling party has endorsed President Yoweri Museveni, 74, as its candidate in 2021 elections, which could see him seek a sixth term in office, a party resolution said Wednesday.
The National Resistance Movement (NRM) called for Museveni to "continue leading the movement and the state in 2021 and beyond to eliminate bottlenecks to transformation."
The resolution was adopted at a retreat for top party officials chaired by Museveni.
The move comes after a bill was signed in December 2017 scrapping a presidential age limit of 75, which would have blocked Museveni from running again, sparking demonstrations and an outcry from the opposition which accused the president of seeking to rule for life.
The constitutional court in July last year ruled in favour of removing the limit. Last month Uganda's Supreme Court began hearing a petition to challenge this decision.
Uganda deports MTN CEO over 'national security' concerns
Museveni, who seized power at the head of a rebel army in 1986, once said leaders who "overstayed" were the root of Africa's problems.
However while running for a fifth term in 2016, he said it was not the right time for him to leave, as he still had work to do.
Museveni is the only president most Ugandans have known in a country where the median age is less than 16.
Young Ugandans have recently been energised by pop star-turned-MP Bobi Wine, who spearheaded protests against the age-limit amendment and has rapidly become a thorn in the government's side.
Bobi Wine, whose real name is Robert Kyagulanyi, told CNN in an interview earlier this month that he was "seriously considering" running for president in 2021.
"We believe that by the time we get to the election which is about two years away, we will have many Ugandans registered as voters and overwhelming Museveni looks like our only way out," he said in the interview.
Ugandan opposition MP and singer Bobi Wine says he is determined to go home
Ugandan politician Robert Kyagulanyi, better known as pop star Bobi Wine, said Thursday he was determined to return to Kampala despite having been ...
Kyagulanyi was charged with treason in August, along with more than 30 opposition politicians, over the alleged stoning of Museveni's convoy after a campaign rally in the northwestern town of Arua.
During the campaign, Kyagulanyi's driver was shot dead when soldiers from the elite presidential guard raided the hotel in which he was staying.
The singer has also accused the security forces of torturing and beating him while in custody and later received medical treatment in the US for the injuries he said he received. The authorities have denied the allegations.

The Mandalorian Season 3 trailer finds the title character returning to Mandalore
More than two years after the dramatic finale of The Mandalorian Season 2, Disney has released the new Season 3 trailer, debuting March 1st on Disney Plus.
Pedro Pascal returns as the title character, and Katee Sackhoff's Bo-Katan Kryzee also confirmed her return after debuting the new Grogu poster this morning.
Season three will continue the adventures of Pascal's title character and young Grogu, aka Baby Yoda, with Mando revealing that he's returning to his home planet of Mandalore to clear his name.
Mando Returns: More than two years after the dramatic finale of The Mandalorian Season 2, Disney has released the new trailer for Season 3, which debuts March 1st on Disney Plus
Grogu: Season 3 will continue the adventures of Pascal's title character and young Grogu, also known as Baby Yoda, with Mando revealing that he's returning to his home planet of Mandalore to clear his name
The trailer with Mando says: "Our people are scattered like stars in the galaxies. What are we? What do we stand for?'
We see Mando emerging from a group of several other Mandalorians – bounty hunters who live under a strict code.
Mando flies through the depths of space with Grogu as he adds voiceover, "Being a Mandalorian isn't just about learning how to fight, it's about knowing how to navigate the galaxy. That way you will never get lost.'

Mando and Grogu land their ship and reunite with Greef Carga (Carl Weathers) before he reveals his plans for this season.
"I'm going to Mandalore to be forgiven for my transgressions," he says as his ship takes off as Peli Motto (Amy Sedaris) yells, "May the force be with you!"
"This is the way," Mando adds, while Captain Carson Teva (Paul Sun-Hyung Lee) tells Mando, "Something dangerous is happening out there, and when it gets big enough for you to act, it will be." late.'

The trailer shows a number of Jedi Knights getting ready for battle along with a number of exciting dogfight scenes as well as another exciting shot of a number of Mandalorians disembarking from a ship.
It seems clear that Grogu is bolstering his Jedi powers when a large creature approaches his lair, but he hurls it out of the way with The Force as the trailer draws to a close.
The show debuted in 2019 and is set five years after the events of Return of the Jedi, the final film in the original Star Wars trilogy.

The series follows the title character who was tasked with bringing Grogu to where he belongs while having many adventures along the way.
The second season ended with quite a surprise for fans – an aging Mark Hamill returns as Luke Skywalker.
Although it's unclear if Hamill will return for Season 3, in December 2020, shortly after the episode aired, he tweeted that he'd been on the secret for over a year.

At least 15 killed in truck bomb attack in Afghanistan
Afghan National Police personnel stop cars at a check point in Herat on September 27, 2019. (AFP)
Reuters, Kabul Saturday 03 October 2020
Attackers set off a truck bomb in Afghanistan's eastern Nangarhar province on Saturday, killing at least 15 people and wounding dozens, according to provincial officials, as violence continues in the war-torn nation despite peace talks taking place in Qatar.
Attaullah Khugyani, a spokesman for the provincial government, said the number of casualties, most of whom were civilians, could rise and that dozens of people were also injured by the blast in Ghani Khel district.
Obaidullah Shinwari, the Nangarhar provincial council's member, said 52 people were injured in the blast.
For all the latest headlines, follow our Google News channel online or via the app.
Ministry of Interior spokesman Tariq Arian blamed the insurgent Taliban for the attack, saying in the last two weeks they had carried 650 attacks which had killed 69 civilians and wounded 141 people.
The Taliban did not immediately respond to calls requesting comment.
Afghan government negotiators are holding talks with the insurgent Taliban in their political capital of Doha in attempts to end decades of conflict, but calls by the government and international community for a ceasefire or reduction in violence have so far been rejected by the Taliban.
Violence has escalated since a reduction in violence period that led up to the United States signing a troop withdrawal with the group, designed to usher the way to peace negotiations, in February.

x = (
    pd.wide_to_long(
        df, stubnames=["", "gp", "rev"], sep="-", i="refnum", j="Base Year"
    )
    .rename(columns={"": "year"})

A: Let's convert the headers to a useable MultiIndex using str.replace and str.split then stack to go from wide-form to long. Then groupby cumcount to create the BaseYear column.
# Save Columns
df = df.set_index('refnum')
# Create a MultiIndex with Numbers at the end and split into multiple levels
df.columns = (
    df.columns.str.replace(r'^(.*?)(\d+)(.*)$', r'\1\3/\2', regex=True)
        .str.split('/', expand=True)
)
# Wide Format to Long + Rename Columns
df = df.stack().droplevel(-1).reset_index().rename(
    columns={'y': 'Year', 'ygp': 'GP', 'yrev': 'REV'}
)
# Add Base Year Column
df['BaseYear'] = "BaseYear+" + df.groupby('refnum').cumcount().astype(str)
# df['BaseYear'] = df.groupby('refnum').cumcount()  # (int version)

df:
   refnum  Year   GP  REV    BaseYear
0   10001  2021  200  300  BaseYear+0
1   10001  2022  600  100  BaseYear+1

8   10003  2023  300  300  BaseYear+2

A: You could use pivot_longer from pyjanitor; for this scenario, you pass regexes to names_pattern, and the new column names in names_to:
# pip install pyjanitor
import janitor
import pandas as pd
df.pivot_longer(index='refnum',
                names_to=['year', 'REV', 'GP'],
                names_pattern=['^y\d$', '.*rev$', '.*gp$']
               )

   refnum  year  REV   GP
0   10001  2021  300  200
1   10002  2020  300  200
2   10003  2021  300  200
3   10001  2022  100  600
4   10002  2021  200  500
5   10003  2022  500  500
6   10001  2023  300  300
7   10002  2022  300  300
8   10003  2023  300  300

If you want the base year included, you can modify the column labels that end with a number, before using pivot_longer:
(df.rename(columns = lambda col: f"{col}YEAR"
                                 if col.endswith(('1','2','3'))
                                 else col)
   .pivot_longer(index='refnum',
                 names_to= ("Base Year", ".value"),
                 names_pattern=r".(\d)(.+)",
                 sort_by_appearance=True)
 )

   refnum Base Year  YEAR  rev   gp
0   10001         1  2021  300  200
1   10001         2  2022  100  600
2   10001         3  2023  300  300
3   10002         1  2020  300  200
4   10002         2  2021  200  500
5   10002         3  2022  300  300
6   10003         1  2021  300  200
7   10003         2  2022  500  500
8   10003         3  2023  300  300

labels associated with .value stay as column headers, while the rest are lumped into a new column (base year)


Hatch a whole new world with the Hatchimals Colleggtibles Mermal Magic toy line. There are multiple ways to collect new Colleggtibles figures, including in the Flower Shower Playset. This comes with one exclusive baby Hatchimal that you get to hatch from the glittery egg. Just rub the heart on the egg, and when it changes color, use your thumb to crack open the egg and reveal who is inside. Then, you're ready to play with the Hatchimal on the playset.
The Hatchimal has muddy details on it, so it needs a bath. Use the leaf bucket to fill the playset's glittery flower with water. Turn the flower clockwise to let the water rain down on your Hatchimal. There is also a plant sponge so you can give the Hatchimal a good scrub, and a leaf towel for drying it off. Using warm water will make the colors change on your Hatchimal, giving it a clean look.
Hatchimals fans will like the surprise of hatching the egg and the color-change feature. It's a cute way to add to a Hatchimals collection and inspire nurturing and imaginative play.
The Flower Shower Playset is for Hatchimals fans ages 5 and up.
Additional Mermal Magic toys include the Coral Castle playset, sold separately.

Q: Normalization for the Fourier series of a Gaussian Electric field I have a function $f(x) = \exp(-\frac{x^2}{\sigma^2})$ on a box of size $L$. I have the given relation between the size of the box and the width of the Gaussian $\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{2}{\pi}}L$. I use the following definition for the Fourier coefficients:
$$c_n = \frac{1}{2L}\int_{-L}^L \exp(-\frac{x^2}{\sigma^2})\exp(\frac{-in\pi x}{L}) dx$$
For my purpose, $L \gg \sigma$, so I use instead:
$$c_n = \frac{1}{2L}\int_{-\infty}^\infty \exp(-\frac{x^2}{\sigma^2})\exp(\frac{-in\pi x}{L}) dx$$
The computation of the fourier series gives:
$$f(x) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty} \exp(\frac{-n^2}{\left(2L/\pi\sigma\right)^2})\exp(in\pi x/L)$$
I want to check the unitarity of this decomposition, that is, if the $\mathcal{L}^2$ norm remains the same. For the original representation, I find:
$$\int_{-\infty}^\infty f^2(x) dx = \sigma\sqrt{\frac{\pi}{2}} = L$$
For the Fourier series, the calculation is a bit more detailed:
$$\int_{-\infty}^\infty f^2(x) dx = \frac{1}{2}\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}n\sum_{n'=-\infty}^{\infty} \exp(-\left(\frac{\pi\sigma}{2L}\right)^2(n^2+n'^2))\int_{-\infty}^\infty\exp(\frac{i\pi x}{L}(n+n'))dx$$
which simplifies to:
$$\frac{L}{2\pi}\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}\sum_{n'=-\infty}^{\infty} \exp\left(-\frac{\pi}{2}(n^2+n'^2)\right) 2\pi\delta(n+n')$$
We can reduce the sum to:
$$L\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty} \exp\left(-n^2\pi\right)$$
It's unclear to me how to proceed further. I can't be sure that this conundrum isn't because of my initial approximation $L \gg \sigma$. Any insight is appreciated, thanks.
EDIT 1: I am aware that the approximation $L \gg \sigma$ in this case is 'unholy', but I am looking for simple approximations that will do the job upto a quantifiable error, as opposed to dealing with messy, complex-argument error functions. I am open to alternative solutions.

Kupnowytschi (; , ) ist ein Dorf in der westukrainischen Oblast Lwiw mit etwa 470 Einwohnern.

Am 9. August 2015 wurde das Dorf ein Teil der neu gegründeten Landgemeinde Luky (Луківська сільська громада/Lukiwska silska hromada), bis dahin bildete es mit Nyschnje und Wankowytschi die Landratsgemeinde Kupnowytschi.

Am 12. Juni 2020 wurde die Landgemeinde wieder aufgelöst und das Dorf ein Teil der Stadtgemeinde Rudky (Рудківська міська громада/Rudkiwska miska hromada).

Geschichte
Der Ort wurde im Jahre 1337 gegründet. Er gehörte zunächst zur Woiwodschaft Ruthenien der Adelsrepublik Polen-Litauen. Bei der Ersten Teilung Polens kam das Dorf 1772 zum neuen Königreich Galizien und Lodomerien des habsburgischen Kaiserreichs (ab 1804).

Im Jahre 1783 im Zuge der Josephinischen Kolonisation wurden auf dem Grund des Dorfes deutsche Kolonisten lutherischer Konfession angesiedelt. Das Dorf wurde in zwei Gemeinden getrennt: Kupnowice Stare (Alt Kupnowitz) und Kupnowice Nowe (die Kolonie, Neu Kupnowitz). Die Protestanten gehörten zur Pfarrgemeinde Hartfeld in Evangelische Superintendentur A. B. Galizien, später eine Filialgemeinde.

Im Jahre 1900 hatte die Gemeinde Kupnowice Stare 142 Häuser mit 856 Einwohnern, davon 808 ruthenischsprachige, 45 polnischsprachige, 3 deutschsprachige, 802 griechisch-katholische, 1 römisch-katholische, 38 Juden, 15 anderen Glaubens. Die Gemeinde Neukupnowitz, Kupnowice Nowe hatte 37 Häuser mit 255 Einwohnern, davon 244 deutschsprachige, 5 polnischsprachige, 6 ruthenischsprachige und griechisch-katholische, 5 Juden, 244 anderen Glaubens.

Nach dem Ende des Polnisch-Ukrainischen Kriegs 1919 kamen beide Gemeinden zu Polen. Im Jahre 1921 hatte die Gemeinde Kupnowice Stare 152 Häuser mit 858 Einwohnern, davon 834 Ruthenen, 17 Polen, 7 Juden (Nationalität), 831 griechisch-katholische, 1 römisch-katholische, 5 evangelische, 21 Juden (Religion). Die Gemeinde Kupnowice Nowe (Neukupnowice) hatte 38 Häuser mit 237 Einwohnern, davon alle Polen, 189 evangelische, 22 griechisch-katholische, 18 römisch-katholische, 8 Juden (Religion)

Im Zweiten Weltkrieg gehörte der Ort zuerst zur Sowjetunion und ab 1941 zum Generalgouvernement, ab 1945 wieder zur Sowjetunion, heute zur Ukraine.

The New Art and Science of Teaching
This title is a greatly expanded volume of the original Art and Science of Teaching, offering a framework for substantive change based on Marzano's 50 years of education research. While the previous model focused on teacher outcomes, the new version places focus on student outcomes. Throughout the book, Marzano details the elements of three overarching categories of teaching, which define what must happen to optimize student learning.
The School Leader's Guide to Building and Sustaining Math Success
The pressure is on. Principals, expected to improve math performance at their schools, often don't know where to begin—as they may be uncomfortable with math themselves or believe that their schools are already doing all that they can. How can K–12 school leaders recognize and ensure that their school or district is supporting good math instruction? Drawing on their vast experience working with administrators, Small and Duff answer that and other questions and provide practical advice and helpful tools for improving math instruction.
The New Art and Science of Teaching Reading
A reading model structured around five topics— foundational skills, word recognition, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension—and the forty-three elements of effective teaching in Marzano's The New Art and Science of Teaching framework.


The Minnesota Wild, despite having played in the NHL for only 17 seasons, are connected to their fan base. Other professional sports organizations, with much longer histories, don't enjoy the same type of relationships.
This year's team is trying to fight off archrival Chicago Blackhawks for first place in the Central Division of the Western Conference. Starting the season at 20-1 odds with Vegas odds makers to win the Stanley Cup, they've increased their chances in experts' eyes and have moved to only 8-1 odds.
The Wild play their home games to sell-out crowds at Xcel Energy Center in downtown St. Paul. Minnesota has a rich professional sports scene with the Minnesota Vikings (football), Minnesota Twins (baseball), Minnesota Timberwolves/Lynx (basketball), and beginning in 2017, the Minnesota United FC Loons (soccer). When you combine that with the University of Minnesota's competitive teams in the Big 10 Conference, Minnesota sports fans have many options to choose from for sports entertainment.
In Minnesota, the sport of hockey holds a special place in residents' hearts. From pee-wee's through adult recreational leagues, hockey is to Minnesota what basketball is to Indiana, and football is to Texas. Even The U.S. Pond Hockey Championships are played at Lake Nokomis just across the border into Minneapolis.
This week's Minnesota High School Hockey Tournament is just one indication of Minnesota's love affair with the sport. Sell out crowds will watch the games at the Xcel where a typical year might see 135,000 fans come to 8 sessions worth of games. Some 21,000 fans watch the AA Finals in person. The average attendance for a Boston Bruins' game is about 17,500. And for those hockey fans who can't score tickets, well, they'll likely be watching on TV – as quarter-final games through the finals are all televised.
The passion Minnesotans have for hockey can be felt in a quote from Herb Brooks, the U.S. Olympics Coach of "The Miracle on Ice" who passed away in 2003.
So, how does the Wild leverage all that Minnesota interest in hockey? As an organization, they've been able to hit the right notes on many fronts. When the beloved North Stars left in 1993, there was definitely a vacuum for many hockey enthusiasts.
The Wild quickly established itself as a marketing organization that knew what they were doing. From the big picture to the small details, Wild officials delivered for fans who were hungry for hockey.
In their first season, the Wild leveraged Minnesota's rich hockey heritage, by emphasizing "The State of Hockey" theme. At home games, a child skates to center ice with The State of Hockey flag before the puck drops. The theme, supported by the deep roots of the game in ponds, lakes and parks across the state, is also bolstered with The State of Hockey Anthem. The song is played at every home game right after the first period.
Check out this fun aspect of the Minnesota State High School Hockey Tournament All Hair Team.
In mid-winter, the Wiold in cooperation with Fox Sports North features two Minnesota high school games played outdoors, a Minnesota Gophers men's hockey game and an NHL game. If you can't get your fill of hockey on this day, something may be wrong.
Minnesota, perhaps more than most state, are very proud of their own. In the music scene Prince is right up there with home-grown Bob Dylan as two of the most loved Minnesota musicians. When Prince passed away in April of 2016, the Wild used his popular song, "Let's Go Crazy," as their goal horn to be played whenever they scored. The fans liked it so much, they voted it in as the choice going forward for all games.
Minnesota non-profits that align with its mission.
The "Wild About Children" Gala raised over $230,000. As a result, the Cancer Kids Fund at Children's Hospitals and Clinics of Minnesota received $150,000 to help families with a child battling cancer or blood disorder. The remaining funds will support other Wild Foundation initiatives.
Nine local charities were selected as the inaugural recipients of the "Wild Idea Grant Program." The non-profit programs received $180,000 in total, awarded as one-time grants that help to advance the foundation's mission to support the game of hockey and improve the lives of families in the State of Hockey.
The results of all the Minnesota Wild's efforts and more makes for a hockey fan experience that truly resonates with the audience. Xcel buzzes with excitement on game nights. Some of the smartest hockey fans in the world enjoy a sport that is in their blood.

Gideon Levy & Mitri Raheb in Palme Prize Ceremony
Watch the ceremony of the Olof Palme Prize, awarded to the Israeli journalist Gideon Levy and the Palestinian pastor Mitri Raheb on 29 January 2016 in the Swedish parliament – with speeches by Pierre Schori, the acceptance speeches by the Laureates, the award given to them by Lisbeth Palme, plus wonderful music. At the end you can see my conversation with them both.
The venue was the old second chamber of the Swedish Parliament. In that very same place I heard the late PLO leader Yassir Arafat express his acceptance of Israel and a two state solution for the first time. That was in December 1988 – something that later led to the Oslo process which was supposed to lead to the creation of a Palestinian state by 1999.
Yet a two state solution seems more distant today, when the occupied West Bank looks like a Swiss cheese, with holes left to the Palestinians. Former president George W Bush used this metaphor, while on a visit to the West Bank in 2008, when he said that a "Swiss cheese isn't going to work when it comes to the outline of a state".
Also Mitri Raheb talked about the Swiss cheese. So what does he and Gideon Levy suggest that we do now, after nearly 50 years of occupation, when the holes in the cheese are getting smaller month by month? In this video you can hear their answers to my question during the ceremony.

Enos Yeager race yields fine girls effort
By egotwals on September 3, 2022
The Enos Yeager Invitational cross country meet was held Friday afternoon at Chambersburg's Tim Cook Memorial Course and the girls race came down to two outstanding local runners.

The Trojans put four other runners in the top 11 of the race, which dies not crown a team champion. Madelyn Koons was fifth in 16:00, Lexi Boyd was sixth in 16:14, Fernanda Orihuela took seventh in 16:38 and Abigale Bricker was 11th in 16:58. Raegan Hepner was also in the top 20 (15th) with a time of 17:17.
For the Blue Devils, Katherine Board was 12th in 16:59 and Celeste Paniego-Martinez was 25th in 18:16.
Among other area schools, Waynesboro's Bella Ruefle was fourth in 15:57, Shippensburg's Katharine Shope was 17th in 17:39, and Sydney Fleming of James Buchanan finished in 17:51 for 19th place.
Ari Snyder
In the boys race, Carlisle put the first two runners across, with Kevin Shank winning in 12:14.
Chambersburg's Ari Snyder (12:29) edged G-A's Hayden Parks (12:36) for third place. The Blue Devils copped the sixth through eighth places as Dalton Noblit (13:12), Joel Amstutz (13:21) and Kyle Baker (13:21) ran strong, plus Caden Hudson was 11th in 13:42.

Q: Using command eas build -p android --profile preview to create build but the build doesn't have the latest changes that i made in app I am using expo for building a React Native app.
I am using command : eas build -p android --profile preview from expo documentation
to make an apk file for android.
Latest i use that link provided by expo to download the apk file and install in my android device.
But when i install it, it doesn't reflect the new changes i made..
I also tried updating my versionCode and version and then typing eas build:configure.

Q: Multiple dictionaries re-structured for matplotlib plot I've recently been using the PyNE library to model radioactive decay of complex materials. Amongst other things, this library allows you to define an arbitrary material as a dictionary, decay it by time t, then it will return a new material as a dictionary containing the species present at that time and their concentrations. For a once off operation this is simple. However, if you want to repeat the process (decay) for several times you'll end up with several dictionaries. The data in these dictionaries show how the radioactive species evolve (decay) with time.
This is great ,however, what I really want to do is plot each species as a function of time. However, matplotlib plot won't accept multiple dictionaries as input data.
My question is, how can I re-arrange the multiple dictionaries in a pythonic fashion to show each species evolution with time, in a format matplotlib plot will accept?
Let me show an example. Suppose my initial material is defined at T0 and consists of three species each with a quantity of 1.0. My initial dictionary would look like:
T0 = {A:1.0, B:1.0, C:1.0}

Now suppose I decay this material to T1, the new material might be.
T1 = {A:1.0, B:0.35, C:1.0, D:0.75}

We can see that the species B has decayed giving rise to D, but A and C haven't.
Now let's decay it again to T2
T2 = {A:0.9, C:0.8, D:1.0, E:0.1, F:0.2}

This time species B has entirely decayed to D while A and C have started to decay to E and F.
Now obviously I've only shown three simple cases. In reality there will be hundreds of dictionaries and possibly tens of species. In the example I'd like to plot A, B, C, D, E as a function of time. Since the data is in separate dictionaries defined at each time step, Matplotlib plot won't take that as an input argument. What I need is something that will group all the A data together and plot it against time, all the B data together and plot it against time and so on...
My first thought was to append to a 2D list where essentially the columns are times and the rows are species. When extracted in to vectors these could easily be plotted. However I think this may be difficult for species which appear half way through, for example D, E, F above. You'd need to set them to zero as below:
list = [['Time', T0, T1, T2],
['A', 1.0, 1.0, 0.9],
['B', 1.0, 0.35, 0.9],
['C', 1.0, 1.0, 0.8],
['D', 0.0, 0.0, 0.9],
['E, 0.0, 0.0, 0.9]]

Any thoughts on how to manipulate these dictionaries in a succinct pythonic way in to something easily plot-able would be most appreciated.
Mark

A: I think you want pandas DataFrame, it's designed to work with 2D arrays of labelled data, with automatic alignment and convenient handling of missing data and matplotlib integration.
http://pandas.pydata.org/
T0 = {'A':1.0, 'B':1.0, 'C':1.0}
T1 = {'A':1.0, 'B':0.35, 'C':1.0, 'D':0.75}
T2 = {'A':0.9, 'C':0.8, 'D':1.0, 'E':0.1, 'F':0.2}
T3 = {'C':0.6, 'D':0.8, 'E':0.1, 'F':0.2}

df = pd.DataFrame([T0, T1, T2, T3]).fillna(0)
print(df)

     A     B    C     D    E    F
0  1.0  1.00  1.0  0.00  0.0  0.0
1  1.0  0.35  1.0  0.75  0.0  0.0
2  0.9  0.00  0.8  1.00  0.1  0.2
3  0.0  0.00  0.6  0.80  0.1  0.2

Haunting and unique, Lydia Johnson's SUMMER HOUSE is set to chamber works by Philip Glass. In this dreamlike piece, a man and three women recall a period of time spent together in a small Summer cottage far from the world's hustle and bustle. There is no set narrative, and we do not know who these people are or how they came to be in the same space at the same time. Cross-currents of desire, despair and jealousy weave thru the dance though we can never be sure whose point of view we're experiencing at a given moment. Thus SUMMER HOUSE leaves much to the imagination of the viewer, and for me - who once spent a marvelous summer in an old Victorian house on Cape Cod - it stirs up all sorts of memories.
Reed Luplau gives a deeply poetic performance in SUMMER HOUSE. Though he interacts with each of the three women, there's no way of telling where his heart lies; it may in fact lie elsewhere altogether. Reed uses his entire body as an expressive instrument, keeping the physicality of the movement ever-flowing and with his beautiful face illuminated by the emotional colours of the music.
The three women dancing in SUMMER HOUSE - Laura DiOrio, Lisa Iannacito McBride and Jessica Sand - are steeped in Lydia Johnson's style. Maintaining the mystique that surrounds the piece, we do not know if the girls are sisters, longtime friends or simply strangers who have come together for a brief span of time. Though each relates to the male character individually, there's also an undeniable bond between the three of them. Thus another layer of enigmas wraps itself around the SUMMER HOUSE. The questions remain unanswered as the lights fade at the end.

Q: multiple cpu usage when accessing data attached to traited classes I have an application that uses a number of classes inheriting from HasTraits. Some of these classes manage access to data and others provide functions for analyzing that data. This works wonderfully for a gui -- I can check that the data and analysis code is doing what it should. However, I've noticed that when I use these classes for gui-less computations, all the cpus on the system end up getting used.
Here is a small example that shows the cpu usage:
from traits.api import HasTraits, List, Int, Enum, Instance
import numpy as np
import psutil
from itertools import combinations

"""
Small example of high CPU usage by traited classes
"""

class DataStorage(HasTraits):
    nsamples = Int(2000)
    samples  = List

    def _samples_default(self):
        return np.random.randn(self.nsamples,2000).tolist()

    def sample_samples(self,indices):
        """ return a 2D array of data at indices """
        return np.array(
                [self.samples[i] for i in indices])

class DataAccessor(HasTraits):
    """ Class that grabs data and computes something """
    measure = Enum("correlation","covariance")
    data_source = Instance(DataStorage,())

    def compute_measure(self,indices):
        """ example of some computation """
        samples = self.data_source.sample_samples(indices)
        percentage = psutil.cpu_percent(interval=0, percpu=True)
        if self.measure == "correlation":
            result = np.corrcoef(samples)
        elif self.measure == "covariance":
            result = np.cov(samples)
        return percentage

# Run a simulation to see cpu usage
analyzer = DataAccessor()
usage = []
n_iterations = 0
max_iterations = 500
for combo in combinations(np.arange(2000),500):
    # evaluate the measurement on a subset of the data
    usage.append(analyzer.compute_measure(combo))
    n_iterations += 1
    if n_iterations > max_iterations:
        break
    print n_iterations

use_percents = np.array(usage).T

When I run this on an 8-cpu machine running CentOS, top reports the python process at roughly 600%.
>>> use_percents.mean(1)

shows
array([ 67.05548902,  67.06906188,  66.89041916,  67.28942116,
        66.69421158,  67.61437126,  99.8007984 ,  67.31996008])

Question:
My computation is embarrassingly parallel, so it would be great to have the other cpus available to split up the job. Does anyone know what's happening here? A plain python version of this uses 100% on a single cpu.
Is there a way to keep everything local to a single cpu without rewriting all my classes without traits?

A: Traits is not causing the CPU usage. It's easy to rewrite this bit of code without Traits, and you will see that you get the same pattern of CPU usage (at least, I do).
Instead, what you are probably seeing is the CPU usage of the BLAS library that your build of numpy is linked against. numpy.corrcoeff() calls numpy.cov(), and much of the computation of numpy.cov() is taken up by a numpy.dot() call, which does a matrix-matrix multiplication using BLAS. If it is an optimized BLAS library, then it will usually use non-Python threads internally to split up these computations among your CPUs. You will have to consult the documentation of your optimized BLAS library to find out how to change this.
