EXCLUSIVE LIVE SET FROM THE LEGENDARY EAT STATIC!!!
18 to enter - 21+w/ picture ID to drink.
looking forward to...... We are all visitors to this time, this place. We are just passing through. Our purpose here is to observe, to learn, to grow, to love... and then we return home.
walla u guys don't stop surprising, uh?
i've been wishing for a long time to see eat static.... and live?? can't wait... my feet are starting to jump from the floor already!!!
there is small room next to mens bathroom so I belive thats the place. na kopcu Kosciuszki za sterami Komandor.OrZech..
psyfaeri - "& who is supposed to believe this event will happen???
very sad... so very sad... "
soset... - "Perhaps you should really try to move on from whatever has happened in the past, and start behaving like a grown-up."
I saw Koxbox a few moons ago and he absolutely is a master. Incredible trance.
Luna I would just go, even if there is a headliner missing that party will crack the transdimensional gates of perception and send you straight to heaven he he Not to say that you will dance surrounded by beautiful ppl. I mean if it is in your destiny, don't think it twice.
psyfaeri - first of all, you weren't at the party, you didn't pay for a ticket, you didn't lose anything, and even if you were there, you have no right to accuse anyone of being a thief, or a liar, without any foundation. I thought it was somewhat ironic that, after those comments, you were telling us "i so wanna fly up for this... "
I would have thought that, after reading the explanation by the Alladin crew, that you might have offered an apology for your remarks. That's what a grown-up would do!
"...im going to spend $$$ on a flight plus tix to a show from out of state... i expect the headliner better damn well be there..."
Do you really think this is a "show"? For me it's an opportunity to dance all night. Really, I don't care who's playing as long as the music drives the dancefloor. Seems like you are a little too concerned with who is "headlining" the party.
soset if you had any idea the incredible music of koxbox and eat static, you would care if they showed up or not.
I guess you don't know. I suggest you get aquainted.
we've got a killer party comming up, Eat Static, Kox Box, and a chillout room, cant wait!!!!!!
BOOOOM! We are all visitors to this time, this place. We are just passing through. Our purpose here is to observe, to learn, to grow, to love... and then we return home.
Kyma - firstly, I didn't complain about anything so I have no clue what the fu*k you are talking about.
and, secondly, maybe you should take your own advice and travel around to see other psytrance parties. perhaps you will come to understand what is important, and what it's all about.
As it does matter to you who's playing....it only matters to me how well it's played.....simply a difference of opinion. Also, you don't know me, so don't assume that you know anything about my musical tastes.
By the way, no need to answer. Let's just go to the party and enjoy ourselves.
one last thing....after the "soset manifest" soap opera u said u wouldnt write in the forum anymore....i dont need to quote that do I? changed your mind?
ill go back to my state of silence now....lets not waste time energy, ok?


I just read the press release on the Toaster 3. I have two questions. The spline controller on "all parameters of the toaster edit." What does that mean? Specifically will we now have the ability to have soft edges on for instance PIPs? Second question will Toaster 3 accept alpha channel clips without having to import them into Aura and convert them into RTV clips.
Just for the record, I support paying for the upgrade. I want to encourage further development.
will Toaster 3 accept alpha channel clips without having to import them into Aura and convert them into RTV clips.
well, there is not really a standard for alpha implementation in AVI, so that will not likely change in T.
Thank you for your continued support of Toaster's development!
Hmmh... Well, if it really isn't a "standard", then how come Aura has no problem with it?
You didn't answer his first question. Will there be soft edges on P&P?
Will there be soft edges on P&P?
Little by little, bit by bit, we're beginign to get a better picture of this incredible new upgrade.
Thanks. That's good news. Can't wait.
- Spline editor for all parameters within ToasterEdit.
1. Does that mean full xyz rotation with perspective?
2. Spline control of the path parameters to create "ease in/out" type movements?
Any image or clip, with or without alpha, can be moved/positioned/rotated as can do now post-process within Aura, except it's real-time in TEd.
Anything that can be keyframed today, can be keyframed with full spline control, and you can even add regions of influence between spline nodes!
The Re-designed DV support and capture, does that mean we will finally be able to record a DV signal as a DV without having to use a 3rd party program?
This would go a long and I mean a long way to convincing wedding videographers that T3 is something to look at.
Most of my footage shot to date is DVCAM. My deck has SDI & firewire out. When I use SDI out, I use up about a gig a minute. If I use firewire out, will I save five times the harddrive space since it's a 5-1 compresion, and it should be identical to the SDI captured footage, Correct??
Anything that can be keyframed today, can be keyframed with full spline control, and you can even add regions of influence between spline nodes!That is fantastic!
how about masks, garbage mattes or stencils...?
Yes, transfering DVCAM via firewire as its native 5:1 compressed would look identical to uncompressing it and SDIing it over to Toaster.
Since DVCAM is your source and not doing anything else to it.
If you need to do multiple operations to the video once it is in your computer, involving multiple save operations, like complex layering and compositing not done "all at once", then saving it as an uncompressed RTV would still be cleaner than compressing/uncompressing as DV, of course.

SP's kisaan yatra march against farm laws: Akhilesh Yadav detained on way to Kannauj, booked
Akhilesh was then taken to Eco Garden in a van and detained for close to five hours. Police also resorted to lathicharge to disperse SP workers.

The Lucknow administration stopped Samajwadi Party (SP) President Akhilesh Yadav from heading to Kannauj on Monday to launch his party's Kisaan Yatra against the Central government's three new farm laws as police detained the former Chief Minister for close to five hours. Police also beat up SP workers and supporters who were accompanying the SP chief.
Later in the evening, police booked Akhilesh for violation of Section 144 CrPC and under Epidemic Diseases Act. According to senior officials in Lucknow, the Kannauj district administration had denied permission to the Samajwadi Party to hold the march, citing Covid pandemic and had imposed Section 144 of the CrPC – that prevents gathering of four or more people – in the districts.

Around 12.30 pm, as Akhilesh came out of his Vikramaditya Marg residence in a car, his convoy was stopped by the police. With the vehicles not allowed to move forward, the SP president said that he would march to Kannauj district on foot, leading to a commotion. Akhilesh than squatted on the road. "Where in a democracy one should be stopped from going out of their house? You locked us in our houses with barricading on all the sides… If I am allowed to go there (Kannauj), I will just speak with the protesting farmers and join the march," Akhilesh told officials as he sat on the road at Bandariya Bagh Chauraha.
In a series of tweets later, Akhilesh hit out at the Yogi Adityanath-led BJP government in the state for preventing him to take part in a protest march. "People are seeing the double standards of the BJP which itself is organising events but is arresting the Opposition in the name of coronavirus. BJP is desperate because now even the common citizens have joined the farmers. When a government becomes the oppressor, a protest turns into revolution in no time. We will see for how many days, BJP will stop us."
Calling it an "undeclared emergency", SP spokesperson Ashutosh Verma said, "Kisaan Yatra was to take place peacefully in support of our protesting farmers. We will do this again and again… For the benefit of a few business houses, the BJP government will not be allowed to oppress our farmers."
Lucknow Police officials said they had urged Akhilesh to cancel his visit in the morning. "The District Magistrate of Kannauj had written a letter to Akhilesh Yadav on Sunday, requesting him to cancel the programme due to safety issues, the coronavirus situation and imposition of Section 144… He ignored our requests and came out of his house and sat in protest after the administration stopped him from going ahead. In order to avoid any law and order situation and mismanagement, he was detained. He was let go around 5 pm. In total around 250 SP workers from different places were taken to Eco Garden," said Lucknow Police Commissioner DK Thakur.
A statement issued by Lucknow Police said, "…SP workers gheraoed and tried to take out march against the rules. When stopped, they misbehaved with police, manhandled and beat them up… Some of the workers were arrested under Section 151 CrPC… Akhilesh protested at Bandariya Bagh Chauraha in violation of section 144 CrPC and blocked the road halting the traffic. On this, he was detained under section 188 (disobedience to order duly promulgated by public servant) of the IPC along with sections of the Epidemic Act."
A total of four FIRs were filed in connection with the protest.

Нуре́к () — город в Таджикистане, в 70 км к юго-востоку от столицы Душанбе.

Возник в ходе строительства Нурекской ГЭС путём преобразования 16 декабря 1960 года кишлака Нурек в город районного подчинения (Орджоникидзеабадского района).

География

Нурек расположен на реке Вахш на высоте 885 м над уровнем моря.

История
12 июля 1961 года Нурек получил статус города республиканского подчинения.

Население
Население по оценке на 1 января 2022 года составляет 28 800 человек.

Известные уроженцы, жители
Амирбеки Мусо — советский и таджикский композитор, музыкант, дирижёр.

Промышленность
 Нурекская ГЭС: запущена в эксплуатацию в 1972, высота плотины 300 м, мощность электростанции 3000 МВт, площадь зеркала водохранилища 98 км²
 завод железобетонных изделий
 швейная фабрика
 хлебзавод

Экологическая ситуация
Развитая промышленность и быстрый рост населения привели к тяжелому экологическому положению в Нуреке: из-за нехватки инфраструктуры для сбора отходов город оказался переполненным свалками, не соответствующими санитарным нормам.

Стратегические объекты
В Нуреке на высоте 2200 м расположен оптико-электронный комплекс «Окно» («Нурек») системы разведки космической обстановки (РКО), принадлежащий Воздушно-космическим силам Российской Федерации.

Telco Bloodbath: Will Cisco Guide Down?
AT&T's capex announcement is still sending ripples through the networking hardware business. Let's face it, right now it's a telco bloodbath for equipment providers. As we noted on Friday, many telecom equipment suppliers have missed their quarters and have been forced to guide down. This is based on one thing and one thing only: Pricing pressure in legacy proprietary hardware.
Even before the AT&T announcement, suppliers were already under a lot of pressure, as witnessed by one round of vicious pricing cuts experienced by Ciena (CIEN) in the quarter and the daily rumors of more pricing cuts in markets such as IP routers. You have to ask: How is this going to be good for Cisco? The company reports earnings tomorrow, after the market close. Some analysts predict the company will have to lower its guidance, based on service provider market alone.
"We think Cisco's revenue guidance this week may be soft, largely due to the Service Provider market," wrote MKM Managing Director Michael Genovese in a research note.
Cisco may be able to get by in it's other markets, but the service provider market has been a thorn in Cisco's side for some time. In its fiscal fourth quarter announced in August, earnings came in at expectations, but the numbers were weighed down by service provider spending and China. Service provider spending was down 9% in that quarter.
The problem goes back to the economics of the carriers. Take a look at AT&T: It just announced that it's making a $2.5B acquisition. Investors are worried about the dividend. It has piles of debt, and it's trying to buy DirectTV. Where's all the money going to come from? The answer is: Out of the capital spending budget (capex) and suppliers' pockets.
The service providers can afford to take this risk because they see the promise of cheaper technology coming. As white-box and Software Defined Networking (SDN) comes onto the scene, they see a day when they don't have to pay for proprietary software. AT&T is working on its Domain 2.0 program for next generation technology, and sources tell us that Verizon is active as well. This means one thing and one thing only: Existing, proprietary hardware vendors are under threat.
Cisco is fighting this trend, but it's probably not going to work out on them in the near-term. Verizon and AT&T want cheaper gear.

Q: How can I make Photoshop menus dark? Photoshop menus are white:

Even with dark mode on:

I also use Win10 native dark mode:

How can I make Photoshop menus dark?

A: You probably have to find something like win7 Window Color and Appearance and tweak the windows dark mode including also the menu and other parts.

Here you should be able to tweak the colors as needed.
If even this doesn't help my only idea is to tweak some undocumented registry key as usual happens in windows environment -_-'

A: Reddit user CreeDorofl pointed me to the following solution:

It turns out photoshop respects an ancient Windows setting for customizing your window and menu colors, even though that option isn't available anymore in windows 10 or 11. You can still change the colors through the registry, or through a little freeware tool.
Tool can be downloaded here: https://www.wintools.info/index.php/classic-color-panel
The colors you want to change are listed as "menu" and "menutext". All the tool does really is modify certain registry settings. If you're comfortable with the registry, run regedit and navigate here (you can copy and paste this path into the nav bar up top):
Computer\\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Control Panel\\Colors

In the pane on the right you'll see various keys, representing UI elements that can be recolored. Most of them (seemingly) won't work because Windows 10 puts a new custom interface on top of all the old menus. But photoshop's white menu will be affected. Double click the "menu" key on the right, and change it to whatever you want. the format is RGB numbers between 0 and 255, separated by a space. Examples:
40 40 40 = Very dark gray.
255 0 0 = pure red.
etc.
You will also want to change the menu text color from black to white, or at least something light.
Screenshot of the registry settings I used: https://i.imgur.com/Wr6kR8P.png

Q: Python converting a hexString Working with NFC with pyscard I received a hexstring like this "01 CB"
I need to convert it to something like that b'\x01\xCB'
--
I know it is a 2 octet big endian and should be equal to 459.
I basically want to run that after the conversion int.from_bytes(b'\x01\xCB', byteorder='big')
Any help is appreciated, thanks

A: If you need just integer value you might simply remove space and treat it just like hex-number i.e.:
string = "01 CB"
digits = string.replace(" ","")
value = int(digits,16)
print(value)

Output:
459

int's second (optional) argument is base - this can be any number from 2 to 36.

Gale and Library Journal Name King County Library System 2011 Library of the Year
Farmington Hills, Mich., June 7, 2011 — Gale, part of Cengage Learning and a leading publisher of research and reference resources for libraries, schools and businesses, and Library Journal magazine today announced that King County Library System in Issaquah, Washington has been named the 2011 Library of the Year. Each year this prestigious recognition goes to the public library in the United States that most profoundly demonstrates service to community, creativity, leadership and innovation in developing specific community programs, particularly programs that can be emulated by others. In addition to a cash award of $10,000, King County Library System (KCLS) will be featured as the cover story for the June 15, 2011, issue of Library Journal.
"King County Library System has a lot of fans at Library Journal, with good reason. We've watched KCLS lead the way for years in innovative service to their community," said Francine Fialkoff, editor-in-chief, Library Journal. "This year, all their efforts aligned—from new buildings to new services to record-breaking usage—and we're thrilled to name them Library of the Year."
The King County Library System was founded in 1942 to serve rural areas and small towns. Now, nearly 70 years later, KCLS is one of the busiest libraries in the U.S., serving 1.3 million county residents with its 46 branches and 2,131 square miles of service area. Patrons have visited the library 10.2 million times in the last year, and KCLS's unique marketing efforts and innovative programs have helped get them in the door. Some examples:
"Take Time to READ" program encouraged community members to take time to read for fun, providing "Quick Read" books and chairs in the unlikeliest places, but often the busiest, such as the Department of Motor Vehicles and the mall
Focusing on the number one use of American public libraries – job and career assistance – KCLS implemented the "Look to Your Library" project, offering 46 workshops on job searching, resume writing and networking
Bringing library resources direct-to-patrons with its "Library2Go" and "Digital Discovery Zone" vans, housing tools for creating computer graphics, games and animations for citizens of all ages
Over the last year, KCLS grossed more than 30 million website visits, driving traffic by:
Redesigning its Web pages and expanding its digital downloads collection with new eBook titles
Producing eReader information cards to answer questions about device compatibility and download procedures, and preparing "Get Started" videos and Facebook ads
Revamping its book review blog "Book Talk" into a fantastic collection of reading recommendations from more than 60 librarians
Creating a "Tell Me a Story Wiki" featuring filmed finger plays, songs, rhymes and links to materials, encouraging adults to share early literacy activities with children
Creating Web pages in Spanish that offer access to materials, programs and services, ensuring a key service group can take advantage of the library's many services
"Supporting libraries is always paramount to our daily work at Gale, and the contributions being made by King County Library System deserve our greatest support and recognition," said Frank Menchaca, executive vice president and publisher, Gale. "Through its tailored career help programs, community reading programs and social media outreach, KCLS has reached new and underserved groups within the community while continuing to support and strengthen services its patrons have always relied on."
"We're delighted to receive this recognition from Gale and Library Journal," said Bill Ptacek, director, King County Library System. "The Library of the Year Award is an honor for the entire community: for our patrons, who made their libraries the busiest in the nation; for the voters who made it possible through their continued support; and for our hard-working staff who continuously create innovative programs and services that best meet the needs of the communities we serve."
Special mentions for Library of the Year were also given to Middle Country Public Library, Centereach, NY; San Diego County Library, San Diego, CA and Jefferson County Public Library, Lakewood, CO in recognition of their service philosophy and dedication to community.
The 2011 Library of the Year Award will be presented formally at a gala reception at the American Library Association Annual Conference in New Orleans on June 26, 2011.

Karyn Kusama is a director who has previously dabbled in studio fare, from 2005's troubled "Aeon Flux" to 2009's quirky, Diablo Cody-scripted "Jennifer's Body," but her work has been, to one degree or another, at the mercy of other cooks in the kitchen whose concern has strictly been the bottom line. For the first time since her 2000 debut feature, the Sundance hit "Girlfight," she has taken the steps to make a movie for herself, using her own sensibilities, with the hope other viewers will share in her tastes. Not only has this leap toward creative freedom paid off, but it should hopefully signal another major turning point in the evolution of her career. Masterfully actualizing a stunner of a script written by Phil Hay (Kusama's husband) and Matt Manfredi (2001's "crazy/beautiful"), Kusama establishes herself as a legitimate filmmaking force, someone who can take a single location and create from this a tour de force of emotionally aching transcendence and nearly unbearable slow-boiling dread and tension.
The less one knows going into "The Invitation," the better. If you'd like to step away and return only after having seen it, that is probably a wise decision. Logan Marshall-Green (2012's "Prometheus") stars as Will, a man in his thirties still carrying with him the weight of a tragedy from his past. When he receives an invitation for a dinner party hosted by his ex-wife Eden (Tammy Blanchard) and her current beau David (Michiel Huisman), he accepts with the hope of reconnecting to old friends. With girlfriend Kira (Emayatzy Corinealdi) by his side, Will journeys into the Hollywood Hills, to the very home he once shared with Eden. She and David have only recently returned from a 2-year sojourn to Mexico, and Will can sense almost immediately a change in her demeanor and personality. When she speaks of discovering a new way of life free of pain and sadness, Will is quietly crushed that she could suddenly be so flippant over a shared loss he is still struggling to come to terms. As the night wears on and the soiree takes a number of uncomfortable turns, the appearance of Sadie (Lindsay Burdge) and Pruitt (John Carroll Lynch)—strangers tightly ensconced in Eden and David's lives—leaves Will progressively suspicious of their motives. Has Eden simply found herself a hippy-dippy spiritual outlet for overcoming her grief, or is there a far more sinister plot already in play?
"The Invitation" takes its time yet wastes nary a frame, each moment methodically, sublimely building as a get-together with friends and loved ones treks toward a creeping pall of peril. The narrative, told from Will's perspective, provocatively evolves based on the baggage, hang-ups and fears he brings with him to the idyllic Los Angeles home where he no longer resides but memories both irreplaceable and unthinkable still exist. Is he being paranoid of his hosts' intentions, or does he have a right to be worried? Is Gina's (Michelle Krusiec) boyfriend Choi (Karl Yune) really just late, or has something happened to him? And is David insistent on locking all the doors based on a safety concern, or to trap everyone inside? As this ominous conundrum threatens to bubble over while wine-drinking guests continue to keep up appearances, weightier human themes begin to take shape. Will is guilt-stricken and suffering over a devastating loss he has gone through, but he rightly views this as a natural part of the grieving process. In the interim since he last saw Eden, she has seemingly wiped all of this away—or so she says. Behind her artificial smile and halcyon serenity, Will sees the hurt in her eyes and feels betrayed that she is outwardly denying these difficult but necessary emotions. A human being cannot simply turn off certain feelings like a light switch, and Eden's claims that she can are the result, he believes, of someone who is lying to herself or potentially brainwashed.
The ensemble cast is superlative, filled with character actors who infrequently receive big-screen roles this significant and juicy. Logan Marshall-Green is an affecting center as Will, a man taking steps to pull himself out of the darkness but not quite equipped to do so. When Kira tries to let him know she is there for him and he expresses in all honesty that he is unsure if she can help him, the words sting them both for different reasons. He doesn't realize they may be on the precipice of having to save each other, and in a whole different manner. Marshall-Green's role is one demanding he play introspective, quietly mournful spectator, then someone who gradually finds the fire in himself he no longer thought he had, and he sells every moment. Emayatzy Corinealdi (2012's "Middle of Nowhere") gives Kira an empathetic soul, one that benefits her all the more when she chooses to stand by Will following a heated confrontation he has around the dinner table. Tammy Blanchard (2014's "Into the Woods") gives a full three dimensions to Eden, her all-is-well charade made all the more unsettling by her silent, not-entirely-concealed anguish. Michelle Krusiec (2005 "Cursed"), as the fun-loving Gina, and Marieh Delfino (2003's "Jeepers Creepers 2"), as the sensible Claire, get a number of terrific moments as two of Will's friends looking to mend their broken bonds with him, while the oft-brilliant John Carroll Lynch (2015's "Hot Pursuit") cuts a foreboding figure as the enigmatic Pruitt, speaking volumes and providing an "is-he-or-isn't-he?" threat with no more than a look.
"The Invitation" is a film of understanding and compassion, but also one which takes an unsparing gaze at the lengths desperate people will go to find comfort through faith, no matter the cost or sacrifice. It is also, for what it's worth, immensely frightening. The layers director Karyn Kusama builds within her slickly modernized house of cards enticingly grow in emotional complexity and chilling suggestion. Every corner forces the viewer to reassess what he or she has just seen, and what is about to follow. Cinematographer Bobby Shore stages the action with a keenly enthralling understanding of space, lighting and mood, while he, Kusama and production designer Almitra Corey take expert advantage of their setting, ensuring the property's architecture, landscaping and cliffside vistas provide a place both grandly enticing and eerily isolated. A nerve-shredding climax, capped by a final shot as brilliantly alarming as it is hair-raisingly evocative, seals the deal on a picture dripping in dark, rapturous portent. Part of the stressful pleasure of watching "The Invitation" is in guessing where the story is headed and, once discovered, recollecting on where it has been. This isn't a horror-thriller-as-magic-trick, though. Quite the contrary, it is a splendidly ominous, beautifully constructed exploration into damaged peoples' lives and the awful, fallible turns they can take.

David Baines: Compensation lacking in chartered accountant fraud case
David Baines, Vancouver Sun columnist 05.06.2013
Janet Bayda is charged with several counts of fraud in connection with the embezzlement of more than $1 million from the International Centre for Criminal Law Reform and Criminal Justice Policy.
Ward Perrin / Vancouver Sun
Accountant at UBC-based criminal justice think tank charged over alleged million-dollar embezzlement
There is obvious irony in the allegation that Janet Bayda, while working as finance director for the International Centre for Criminal Law Reform and Criminal Justice Policy, embezzled more than $1 million from the organization.
As reported Friday, the RCMP Commercial Crime Section has charged Bayda, a chartered accountant, with nine counts of fraud in connection with her work between 2004 and 2011.
According to a news release issued by the centre, Bayda embezzled anywhere from $1 million to $1.5 million before her alleged scheme was discovered in December 2011.
The centre said it immediately fired her and reported the matter to police and Bayda's professional association, the Institute of Chartered Accountants of B.C., which "took steps to protect the public with respect to Ms. Bayda's accountancy practice."
Bayda voluntarily resigned from the institute on Friday, just days after the charges were laid.
The centre said Bayda has been cooperative and has facilitated the recovery of $425,000, but that still leaves a big hole in the centre's finances.
As mentioned, there is obvious irony in the allegation that such an organization has been victimized by one of its own staff members.
But there is another, less-obvious irony noted by Vancouver lawyer Don Sorochan, who the centre hired to sort out this mess.
Sorochan said in an interview that the centre decided to pay extra money for a chartered accountant, rather than a mere bookkeeper, to ensure the integrity of its accounts.
However, Bayda instead used her accounting skills to effect a long-running fraud on the centre.
Asked why the alleged fraud wasn't discovered earlier, Sorochan replied: "This is a fraud committed by a professional. She's an accountant and knew how to cover her tracks."
When the alleged fraud was discovered, the centre learned, to its dismay, that the CA institute doesn't have any provision to compensate clients who are defrauded by errant members.
This contrasts with the Law Society of B.C., which has such a fund, and has paid out millions of dollars on account of lawyer fraud over the past decade — most notably $38.4 million to victims of a massive real estate fraud facilitated by former Vancouver lawyer Martin Wirick.
"From a public policy point of view, why doesn't the institute provide the same sort of protection for people who put their trust in CAs?" Sorochan asks.
Chris Utley, the institute's director of ethics, says lawyers (and notaries) maintain compensation funds because they routinely hold funds in trust for clients. Chartered accountants do not, which is why they don't have a similar sort of fund.
He added that chartered accountants are not alone in this respect. No other accounting body in Canada or the United States maintains such a fund.
Tough luck for Sorochan's client, for sure, but this is the sort of fraud that any employer can suffer. I don't think the fact that Bayda was a CA is sufficient reason to create and maintain an insurance scheme like this. These sorts of frauds are very rare in my experience.
Another quarter, another loss for Westport Innovations Inc., the Vancouver maker of natural gas engine technology. Westport's total revenues for the quarter ending March 31 were down by nearly $6 million to $30.1 million US. Losses, meanwhile, rose by just over $9 million to $22.6 million (55 cents per share).
The company has been a chronic money loser ever since it went public in 1997. Last year, it lost $98.8 million, nearly double the prior year. Cumulative losses are now $461.7 million and climbing.
The stock is currently hovering at the $29 level, down from its 52-week high of $40.75, but still enough to afford the company an other-worldly market cap of $1.6 billion.
The gravity-defying share price may explain why shareholders don't revolt over the huge levels of compensation that the company pays its senior officers.
Its top five officers all received more than $1 million in total cash and share compensation. Founder and CEO David Demers led the pack at $3.17 million, down only slightly from the $3.25 million he made the previous year.
Another quarter, another loss for Ballard Power Systems Inc., the Burnaby-based maker of fuel-cell technology.
Despite the oft-repeated characterization of Ballard as a "local success story," it has actually been a chronic money loser.
During the first quarter, revenues increased by $2.3 million to $12.3 million US, but the net loss barely budged at $8.4 million (nine cents a share).
That is on top of the $44.5 million (44 cents a share) that the company lost last year. Cumulative losses are now a massive $1.1 billion US.
It has been, however, a lucrative enterprise for its senior officers. Last year, president and CEO John Sheridan earned $559,910 cash. In view of the company's lacklustre performance, he waived his usual bonus in return for a long-term incentive package of shares and options valued at $900,000. Thank God for small mercies.
The company's stock is now trading at a dollar, about the mid-point of its 52-week range. That is down slightly (excuse the sarcasm) from its peak price of $210 in March 2000.
At the current price, its market cap is now $95 million, which in my view is still way too high. After all, what value is a company if it never makes any money?

Celebrating Panda Express and the Lunar New Year!
January 21, 2023 | By Donald B
Tomorrow, January 22, 2023, marks the beginning of Lunar New Year and the Year of the Rabbit in the Chinese zodiac. Lunar New Year is one of the world's biggest festivals centered around food, family and togetherness.
Since 2007, Panda Express has been making an impact at Children's Miracle Network Hospitals by raising millions of dollars throughout the year by asking guests to round-up at the register. Funds donated stay local and benefit patients and families in your community.
We would like to join the associates and guests celebrating this Lunar New Year and take a moment to recognize the immense impact made on Children's Miracle Network Hospitals in 2022. Millions of dollars were raised for programs that support the whole child, including their mental, emotional, physical and spiritual well-being. Additionally, Panda opened more Centers of Hope at countless Children's Hospitals, which are hospital spaces designed to provide a safe and comforting place where kids can be kids again.
We are grateful for the ongoing partnership with Panda and the many ways they help change kids' health to change the future across the country. Learn more about this partnership by watching the video below.

Geographical Information Systems (GIS) are used today at several planning applications and taking advantage of information technology, this system enable the handling of both spatial and non-spatial data for constructing thematic maps describing a variety of information relating to economic activities. Current research examined the potential of suitable location as well as to study customers' preferences for shopping malls in the area. In this study, evaluation of data concerning the suitable location selection was performed in Geographical information system Arc Info-GIS environment and a number of other criteria were used to evaluate alternative sites, showing four suitable sites for new location of malls. The result shows that the best site choice meeting all the requirements is located in Airport District area. 500 questionnaires were distributed to assess the customer preferences for shopping malls. Even existing in the low population density area, a high percentage of respondents (46%) prefer to shop at Bawadi Mall because it is helpful in servicing large numbers of people and reducing crowds in the city centre. The study concludes that the distribution of shopping malls was generally found to be random and uneven in the city of Al Ain. Therefore, study recommends that there is a need to set the common standards for building malls and carry out more investigation regarding factors such as soil types, land ownership and compensation.

Growing up, Randy Rozenboom watched his father farm and knew that farming was all he wanted to do. Throughout high school Randy worked for local farmers as a hired hand. Randy and his wife Carol started farming for themselves in 1974 and added a trucking fleet in 1980.
Their business has grown since, and their family–son Justin and daughter Ranae–have been blessed. Justin became a partner with Randy in 1993. Today, Justin and his wife Becky handle the operation of Rozenboom, LLC, the trucking fleet.
Today Rozenboom LLC operates with a fleet of 22 units. Rozenboom LLC has trailers for most needs, such as grain hoppers, belt trailers, tanks, flat beds, step decks, detach trailers, and vans.
Randy and Justin continue to farm jointly while Carol continues to handle the books for the farming operation. Becky handles the day to day business for the trucking and warehouse operations with Ranae helping out part time.

Q: Android Market Screenshots and high-res Icon This is my first attempt to publish an app to Android Market and I've been working off the "Preparing to Publish Checklist" at http://developer.android.com/guide/publishing/preparing.html
But when I tried to upload an app I discovered it wanted stuff that isn't even mentioned in the checklist. (why aren't they on the checklist?!)    It wants at least two screenshots in specified dimensions along with a large icon.     I don't have anything like that prepared because they're not on the checklist nor on the link on that page to "Publishing on Android Market" - http://developer.android.com/guide/publishing/publishing.html#market

*

*How do we get screenshots off our phones?   Or do people make screenshots from the Emulator?   I have screenshots on the app's website that I made from the emulator but they illustrate specific examples in the app's tutorial.   (this is an app for collecting data mostly in a medical or scientific context and it's user-configurable so the appearance of a screen is very specific to the user's configuration)

*My icons are deliberately designed for standard Android icon resolutions (up to 72x72) - it would look ridiculous at 512x512 - Should I just make a 512x512 piece of art that's thematically related to the app's icon?
Is there some Google/Android document where they discuss these considerations?
Thanks in advance!

A: The requirements that you mention that aren't on the list, such as the 512px icon, are recent changes.  It seems somebody forgot to update the document.
The 512px icon is for the web market, although it is actually scaled down to 256x256px currently.  It is supposed to be the same image that you use for the app icon.
You can take screenshots from a device using the DDMS tool in the SDK.  Or you can just take a screenshot of the emulator.  The two will look slightly different depending on which device you are using.  You might choose the one you think looks better or just use whichever is easier.

History of Internet NZ (Part 1)
An introduction to Internet governance in New Zealand.
Management of the New Zealand Internet
The Internet in New Zealand is self managed. There is no specific government legislation with regards to Internet matters, which are covered under general government legislation.
InternetNZ has responsibility within New Zealand for the .nz domain name space (DNS) and maintains a shared registry system (SRS) for the management of .nz domain name registrations and the operation of the DNS.
The SRS provides a single register for registering domain names and associated technical and administrative information. .nz Registry Services (NZRS), owned by InternetNZ, operates the registry. There is a competitive environment for registrations with a number of registrars on the market.
Registrars are responsible for managing their relationship with registrants. There is no communication between NZRS and registrants.
The Role of InternetNZ
InternetNZ is the guardian of the Internet in New Zealand. Formerly The Internet Society of New Zealand, InternetNZ is a not-for-profit organisation fostering coordinated and cooperative development of the Internet in New Zealand.
The mission of InternetNZ is to promote and protect the Internet, ensuring that it operates in an open and uncapturable environment.
Representing a membership including Internet Service Providers, web designers, academia, public information groups and Internet users, InternetNZ provides commentary and advice to politicians, industry influencers and the media. We also represent New Zealand on global Internet organisations, having the delegation for the .nz Country Code Top Level Domain (ccTLD).
As part of the delegation of .nz InternetNZ owns the Domain Name Commission Ltd which oversees the management of the .nz domain name space.
InternetNZ also owns the New Zealand Domain Name Registry Limited, trading as .nz Registry Services (NZRS), that operates the .nz register.
As well as the .nz delegation, InternetNZ is concerned with technical matters such as IPv6, and anti-spam efforts.
Structure of InternetNZ
InternetNZ is governed by a Council (elected by InternetNZ members). The Council is made up of four officers (the President, Vice-President, Secretary and Treasurer) and ten Councillors, all of whom serve two year terms.
The Council is responsible to InternetNZ members for conducting the affairs of the Society. It has a set of bylaws to guide its processes and policies.
There are six permanent committees of Council. They are:
.nz Oversight Committee
Technical Policy Committee
Audit and Risk Committee
The Council or one of its committees often sets up special purpose limited duration task-forces or groups.
InternetNZ Membership
Any person or organisation can join InternetNZ. The members have ultimate authority in the Society. They have the right to amend the Constitution (by two thirds majority), to elect and sack Officers and Councillors and to instruct the Council on matters that they see fit.
InternetNZ Membership Information
The country code Top Level Domain (ccTLD) in New Zealand is .nz. The .nz namespace has twelve 2nd level domains (2LDs), four of which are moderated.
The 2LDs in New Zealand are:
.ac  - used by tertiary educational institutions and related organisations.
.co  - the most common 2LD  used by companies with commercial aims and purposes.
.cri  -  used by Crown Research Institutes (moderated).
.gen  - used by people and organisations not covered under any of the other 2LDs.

Donkey Kong has been a hot Nintendo property for a long time. Few people I know are as passionate about DK as Darryl. He even wrote an article in the late 90s about Donkey Kong and all his related ports. A great read if you're unfamiliar with all the different nuances between the various ports, and the game in general. From talking with him it's a lot deeper than it would appear on the surface.
Give it a read and go enjoy one of the various DK ports.
Hit up his website and check out some of his other work as well.
Hope everyone had a great Holiday time.
We had some fun working on game stuff, and more importantly playing games. Nothing particularly exciting to post yet, but it's coming.
If you like Power Rangers though, the legacy Dragonzord is awesome. Legacy Tigerzord is going to be released soon (here in the U.S.), and you may want to snag Dragonzord during the after Christmas sales or something. Great collectible IMO. Never had the original toy as a kid, though I wanted it. Sweet to have it now though. No electronics but that's a small detail, since it's show accurate.
Go snag one if it's up your alley.
Just a quick update, but got some more time to do some coding.
Nearly all the elements from my previous Android adventure game and the elements from School Maze have been realized in OpenGL.
One of the next things I want to add is Netplay Code. In School Maze one of the things I wanted to do was have a Co-Op mode, but it was a pain with Flash, so I didn't get around to adding it. That shouldn't be a problem though with SDL_Net or WinSockets.
Not much to update, but I am working on several projects.
Working on a 3D OpenGL version of a game I originally started as a 2D tile based game on the Android. It translated pretty well to 3D and I just added a new messagebox system. Makes me reminisce the days of my youth when I first started playing with RPG Maker 2000 or whatever.
Levels are completable as of a few weeks ago so that was a nice feeling to get it back to the level of completeness of the Android version. Now that the messagebox system is finished I can start fleshing out the levels with the story prompts and such to give them a bit more polish.
Hey all, new site is up!
Just went with a WordPress site this time rather than some fancy custom made one. Stay tuned for more news as I get acclimated to WordPress.


Rory didn't look like the others kids at his school, and he was overweight. School was tough.
On the estate where he lived, Rory was affiliated to 'a group of people, a group of my peers'.
Rory remembers being 'permanently in detention' at school, and almost constant fighting, which lead to his exclusion, 'I think it was six times in all'. He spent most of year 11 'walking the streets'.
By his mid-teens, Rory was sentenced to four months in a young offender's institution for robbery. At some point he was diagnosed as having ADHD and bipolar disorder, for which he was briefly medicated. Rory reports little professional intervention in custody.
During the last month of his sentence, Rory's YOT worker visited him weekly to prepare him for release. Rory's family were re-housed due to his gang-affiliation, and moved the day after he was released from custody. Once out, the same YOT worker got Rory on an anger management course which 'worked for a few months'.
Rory recognises that his struggle is a continuing one.
Rory continues to attend the project. He no longer associates with his former criminal gang, but he still struggles with anger.

Maria S. Poptsova and J. Peter Gogarten. The power of phylogenetic approaches to detect horizontally transferred genes. In BMCEB, Vol. 7(45), 2007.
Keywords: evaluation, from rooted trees, lateral gene transfer, Program EEEP.
Note: http://dx.doi.org/10.1186/1471-2148-7-45.
Toggle abstract "Background. Horizontal gene transfer plays an important role in evolution because it sometimes allows recipient lineages to adapt to new ecological niches. High genes transfer frequencies were inferred for prokaryotic and early eukaryotic evolution. Does horizontal gene transfer also impact phylogenetic reconstruction of the evolutionary history of genomes and organisms? The answer to this question depends at least in part on the actual gene transfer frequencies and on the ability to weed out transferred genes from further analyses. Are the detected transfers mainly false positives, or are they the tip of an iceberg of many transfer events most of which go undetected by current methods? Results. Phylogenetic detection methods appear to be the method of choice to infer gene transfers, especially for ancient transfers and those followed by orthologous replacement. Here we explore how well some of these methods perform using in silico transfers between the terminal branches of a gamma proteobacterial, genome based phylogeny. For the experiments performed here on average the AU test at a 5% significance level detects 90.3% of the transfers and 91% of the exchanges as significant. Using the Robinson-Foulds distance only 57.7% of the exchanges and 60% of the donations were identified as significant. Analyses using bipartition spectra appeared most successful in our test case. The power of detection was on average 97% using a 70% cut-off and 94.2% with 90% cut-off for identifying conflicting bipartitions, while the rate of false positives was below 4.2% and 2.1% for the two cut-offs, respectively. For all methods the detection rates improved when more intervening branches separated donor and recipient. Conclusion. Rates of detected transfers should not be mistaken for the actual transfer rates; most analyses of gene transfers remain anecdotal. The method and significance level to identify potential gene transfer events represent a trade-off between the frequency of erroneous identification (false positives) and the power to detect actual transfer events. © 2007 Poptsova and Gogarten; licensee BioMed Central Ltd."

Louis Tomlinson Release Highly Anticipated Single "Two Of Us"
Music Mayhem March 7, 2019
Louis Tomlinson releases his highly anticipated single, "Two Of Us," via Syco/Arista Records today. Get the song here! The first single off Louis' debut album is his response to the passing of his mother in December 2016. The deeply personal pop ballad was written to ultimately be a hopeful song and is perfect to spearhead his return to music as a solo artist. Alongside the single, Louis released a lyric video which can be viewed below.
"I just feel like musically, I almost needed to get this song off my chest," Louis explains. "People say writing is a part of therapy and in a way, I feel like I'd been avoiding writing this song because I knew I only had one chance to get it right. I don't mean to be too soppy about it, but if "Two of Us" can help just one other person who's going through the tough time that I went through, then that would make me really happy."
Last week, Louis began teasing the new single on his socials with a scavenger hunt where he hid video clips in hotspots around the world for his fans to find.

STAY, STAY, STAY
The exhibition and events programme Stay, Stay, Stay involves artists whose work features an element of exploration of places as well as it conveys the notion of "opening".Their installations, performances, videos and objects often allude to cultural, social and political facts and phenomena, which though not necessarily invisible or inaccessible, often remain hidden or unnoticed by society.
Central Bathhouse, 1 Banski Square, Sofia

Monday to Friday: 12:00 – 18:00

curated by Margarita Dorovska and Antonia Lotz
Stay, Stay, Stay is an exhibition about places – places people pass by without paying attention to and places with which one stays – experiences, which linger in the mind. Some of them are facts from our daily route, passing-by landscapes, physical presence left unnoticed. Yet, they are part of constructed environments, with historical, social, cultural layers, subject to registration, reminiscence and exploration. Places changed by the time, changed in line with somebody's decision, squeezed between intentions, assigned purposes and reality. Becoming subject of artistic production, they come into sight, become visible and possible to observe, sharpen the senses for perceiving the traces of time and dynamics of social space. And so they stay, despite changes and physical erasure.
... somebody's train station in Berlin, no longer existent hotel in Gdansk, a lonely church in Rome, recently built to socially revive one neighborhood, a bingo hall in the subway of a central railway station, an oversized neon billboard from the mid 60s in Sofia, built to represent the traffic light substituting the traffic policeman, but also the party line from that time, architectural landscapes from Berlin and Vancouver, places, captured and archived through the camera of a restless traveller since 1950, a tropical amusement park, built in a facility meant as the biggest hangar in the world, situated in the former soviet military area near Berlin, property development sites, hesitating between present tense and projected future, a place, nominated to gather artist and audience and tested as a condition, sufficient for being entertained...
The exhibition is complemented by a programme, held in the first two days after the opening and the last day of the show. Taking place in a city developing rather speedy than planned, it quietly confronts the participants with different perspectives and standpoints to facts and phenomena from the physical environment and provokes sensitivity and intellectual engagement with their own surrounding. Featuring performances, talks, screenings, discussions and a literary reading, the programme is designed as an inseparable entity of the exhibition, which will be closed with the first public presentation of an epistolary project between a writer from Cape Town and an architect from Bombay. Leaving the domain of personal correspondence, this exchange of images and texts about the two cities, rich in affections, memories and concerns actually accompanies the whole programme by lending its title.
One of the places to come across during the show is its venue – the former central mineral bathhouse in Sofia, build in the very beginning of 20th century and closed in 1986. Situated in the very heart of the city, for more than thirty years now, hidden behind fences and subject to reconstruction, until recently it was a place without clearly assigned function. Having been used as an unofficial/unnoticed (in the sense of not spoken about) refuge for homeless people, a place for private parties, sporadic cultural events, setting for film productions, now one can see how the gorgeous old layers are being covered with white walls and sterilized to become a history museum of Sofia and a spa centre... For the last time one can visit the building and along with the works in the show, read through the stories of the place from the palimpsest walls of its halls and corridors.

A roll and dice at Glasgow's best board game cafe
Published in issue 3, 22nd November, 2016 27 November, 2016
Creator Kenny Li talks to us about why Dice Roll cafe is more than just a game.
Credit: Ashley Stebbings
Deputy Culture Editor (Film & TV)
Sitting in the warm din of the CCA Kenny Li strikes a fairly casual figure, but the event that he runs every few weeks, the Dice Roll cafe, is anything but.
"Dice Roll is very casual, but that's because it's centered around accessibility more than anything – it has to be inclusive, philosophically for me, boardgaming is a participatory, very inclusive hobby."
Kenny started the Dice Roll Cafe at the CCA in late 2015. Since then it has continued to be a regular fixture, with a small donation getting you access to an extensive library of games for a whole evening in a cool setting, with like minded people. As we chat, all around us small and large groups are playing all sorts of games, from a couple playing the tactical Star Wars: Rebellion, to a contingent of tipsy students playing out monster skirmishes with dice in King of Tokyo.
"Seeing Snakes and Lattes' [one of the first boardgame cafes to open in 2009] success in Toronto was inspiring, as it showed me that there could be a second home for hobbyists, a nice safe space for a community"
There are other places to play board games in Glasgow, but there aren't really any quite like this. For one, the setting is more accommodating than most, and Kenny prides himself on curating the collection as if it were a public library, "It's helpful, otherwise you're just a consumer who is consuming and it takes the soul out of the gaming a little. We take the hit and they have a good collection of tried and tested classics."
Frequently referring to the endeavour as "we" Kenny eventually reminds himself that this is his own passion project that he has built entirely from the ground up, fitting around 45 hour work weeks. "You can't really do everything that Dice Roll needs to have done unless it was a dyed in the wool passion or obligation." The cafe is thus more than a hobby, he frames it as a mission that he has to undertake.
It sounds a little trite on face value, but Kenny speaks with a knowledge and passion that belies the scale of the event. He believes in the power that games have as social levellers, and as a healthy hobby that encourages interaction and many forms of cognitive exercise such as short term recall. Dice Roll exists to facilitate and make inclusive a hobby that can be quite ostracising via high prices and groups that often cut out more casual players, or those without confidence.
Kenny highlights that board gaming requires only one thing from players beyond ownership of a game (something that Dice Roll takes care of) and that is a willingness to participate. Because of this he believes an organisation like his can have a wide reaching impact in the community if it gains traction "I'd like to strengthen the social conscience side. Setting up sessions for vulnerable groups, like the elderly, the vulnerable or people with depression and other mental health issues. Anecdotally a lot of attendees who are part of vulnerable groups have said they find coming to the event really helps."
Due to this, the curated library he has created contains a wide range of games, but primarily caters to those which encourage sociability and steer clear of complexity; games that can be played easily in larger groups. The shelves are bursting with co-operative games like Ghost Stories and Mysterium, or games like Coup and The Resistance, and Cash and Guns which coax people out of themselves and help them integrate with new players; "even though we have a large selection of big, mechanical games, they don't get used as often. Simple games are definitely the ones that get used the most."
At the end of most nights, Kenny set ups a larger scale game, usually alternating between Two Rooms and a Boom, and Ultimate Werewolf; "you can have comfortably 30 people playing it. It's all very fun, involved interactions but light rules so it's really easy to get your head around." Beyond the social conscience aspect, Kenny sees this as the ultimate goal of Dice Roll Cafe, to expand on the original emphasis of the event: good food, good games, good fun.
"I want to host regular nights of fine food and fine games, in a non-pretentious environment. Food orientated, inclusive events and you get to mingle and eat interesting things and have a good time which is just so compatible with a large format game where you get to mingle and have intriguing interactions and let loose and have a really a good night."
In its current state, the Dice Roll Cafe is still a fantastic night out and a great way to experience a hobby that might otherwise feel out of reach. Kenny's passion is obvious from the laughter and cheers from the various tables, and as an event it is without a doubt one of the more interesting ways to get to know your friends. Every game is an opportunity to slip into a new role, or learn some of the more covert traits and talents that your friends might hold. If it all goes wrong, you can always play Jenga with a few pints afterwards, Dice Roll doesn't discriminate; it's entirely founded on inclusivity.

Is Karnataka following the Gujarat mode of development?
Between 1998 and 2000, communal incidents were reported every six months, every month between 2000 and 2004, and from 2004 on, we find that incidents occur every week."
The invariable plot for violence, he adds, is about a boy from a Muslim or Christian community 'found being friendly' with a Hindu girl, which leads to the self-styled protectors of the Hindu faith 'intervening' to 'free' the girl. Except intervening here means thrashing the boy. "We should remember that there was a sustained campaign against the Muslim community in Gujarat before Godhra happened," says Phaniraj. Just prior to the Surathkal riots in 1998, a lot of pamphlets warning young Hindu women against going with Muslim boys were circulated.
"One of them asked Hindu women to be cautious of Muslim men in footwear shops."
courtesy a local TV channel. On the very same day, Bajrang Dal men had barged into a private party and assaulted those present. And the man who instigated the pub attack, Prasad Attavar, had in 2007 assaulted a Muslim boy at the Ideal Ice-cream Parlour in the heart of Mangalore for talking to a Hindu girl. More ghastly, however, was the 2005 incident in a Puttur cinema when two men (one Muslim) and two Hindu women working in an areca processing factory had gone to see a movie. Around 150 Bajrang Dal activists barged in, dragged the four out and assaulted them before handing them over to the police. As recently as six months ago, a Muslim and Hindu couple living together were forced to return to their native Gadag by parivar activists. "Intrusion into private spaces has become common," says Phaniraj.
Rajashekar rues that even people have become insensitive. "The pub incident is not a one-off criminal act as the CM and home minister are trying to project," he says. "It is part of a political programme. The fact that TV cameras were in position before the incident took place reminds me of the Walter Benjamin observation that 'Fascism makes a spectacle of its ideology'. People are not shocked by what has happened. They simply watched it like any TV serial."
Father Prashant Madtha, former principal of St Aloysius College, Mangalore, attributes the frequent eruptions in the city to a clash of cultures. "Because of the various educational institutions in the area, Mangalore has witnessed an influx of people from across India. The locals feel threatened by the outsiders and feverishly protect their culture from corruption."
Amidst all this are fears that the constabulary too has been communalised. But state DG and IG of police, R. Srikumar, dismisses the idea outright. "It is easy for people to pass value judgements," he says. "Let those who accuse us give us in writing the names of officers who have acted communally and we'll investigate the charges."
The other worry is the media. "The local media here has coopted the language of the parivar," rues Phaniraj. "So, the common man has started accepting propaganda without questioning it." The general attitude of the Sangh to media non-compliance was evident in the case of B.V. Seetharam, the editor of the Mangalore-based newspaper Karavali Ale and a Sangh critic. Handcuffed and arrested in an alleged extortion case on January 6, he is still in prison.
The quality of public discourse too seems to have reached a nadir ever since the BJP has come to power.There seems to be no middle path. Following the church attacks, a mainstream Kannada newspaper ran a poisoned debate on the issue of conversions for over a month. The right-wing historian and novelist S.L. Bhyrappa, who opened the debate, claimed that "there was an alarming increase in conversions ever since Sonia Gandhi had come to power". He also endorsed a study which said that every day "5,000 people in India were converting to Christianity".
Besides the coastal districts, there has been an uneasy calm at other flashpoints like Baba Budangiri since 2004, where the Sangh parivar is hell-bent on converting the Sufi shrine with a rich tradition of religious syncretism into an exclusive Hindu pilgrimage centre. BJP leader H.N. Ananth Kumar had vowed to make it the 'Ayodhya of Karnataka'. The Hubli Idgah Maidan issue had cropped up temporarily in September 2004 when Uma Bharati courted arrest and lost her chief ministership, but there has been little noise since then. The silence is eerie, however, and with a BJP government in power, pregnant.
