American Indian Movement Autonomous Confederation
ON THE OCCASION OF THE MEETING OF THE UNITED NATIONS
OPEN-ENDED INTERSESSIONAL WORKING GROUP CONSIDERING
THE DRAFT DECLARATION ON THE RIGHTS OF INDIGENOUS PEOPLES
The American Indian Movement is a legitimate National Liberation Organization in the original indigenous territories of North America now claimed by the United States. We have been active at the United Nations since before there was a Working Group on Indigenous Peoples and before there was a Draft Declaration. It is because of our long-standing work in this forum that we feel compelled to inform you why we are leaving this process today.
When Indigenous Peoples first arrived at the UN in 1977 the world was a different place. The possibilities for a genuine and respectful expansion of fundamental human rights, especially the right for all peoples to be free from colonial domination, seemed great. We took seriously, as we thought the members of the United Nations did, high-sounding principles such as the self-determination of peoples, and ideals such as the promotion of world peace and cooperation. We came here, with our other indigenous sisters and brothers, to bring revolutionary vision and change to a narrow and moribund United Nations system, not to acquiesce in it, or to accept it fatalistically. We brought the goodwill and the dignity of our peoples and nations to this foreign place in a optimistic attempt to vindicate the rights of our future generations. Now that has neither the need nor the desire to assist us in the de colonization of our peoples and our homelands.
What we have been met with here in Geneva is the all too familiar atmosphere of duplicity, deceit, and disrespect that we receive from the invader states in our homelands. In 1492, the year that our territories were first invaded by European colonialism, the Spanish scholar Nebrija stated that language is the perfect instrument of empire. Over the centuries, we as indigenous peoples have come to realize the truth of Nebrija's forthrightness in describing the methods by which language is used in the legal and political processes of the settler states to suppress us. We are now shocked and dismayed that the process of considering the Draft Declaration is being captured by a similar imperial ideological perspective, and is itself becoming a tool of continuing colonization, empire, and genocide against indigenous peoples.
Specifically, hollow pronouncements that the working group will proceed on the grounds that indigenous peoples will be allowed full and effective participation along with state governments, have meant that indigenous peoples are allowed to comment on the draft, but that states alone will retain the sole right to determine the ultimate complexion and content of the Draft that will impact us. Such an arrangement cannot honestly be construed as the genuine partnership with indigenous peoples that the United Nations has claimed to desire.
When asked to respond to the three reasonable request of the indigenous caucus, namely:
That the Draft Declaration be accepted at this session of the Working Group without negotiation, changes, amendments or deletions;
That the proposed agenda be altered to provide an opportunity for substantive debate on the most critical aspects of the Draft, such as the right of indigenous peoples to exercise self-determination, indigenous territorial rights, treaty rights, and other collective rights. Articles of the draft should not be re-grouped or otherwise subject to suggestion for alteration or revision;
That the rules of procedure for the Working Group be suspended to allow for the genuine, full, effective and co-equal participation of both states and indigenous peoples. Participation is meaningless without the consensus of the Working Group also including the decision-making contribution of indigenous peoples and nations on an equal level with states.
In reaction to the indigenous caucus request, only six states availed themselves of the opportunity to respond, and they in relatively mild or couched language. It was only our indigenous relatives from Fiji who had the good will to address and support our reasonable request fully. Other states made high-sounding statements about how indigenous "input (as opposed to genuine participation) will be indispensable," or that indigenous participation is "absolutely fundamental," to the discussion of the Draft. Yet, when almost all indigenous peoples withdrew from the session in frustration, the states proceeded with the regrouping and suggested text changes in the Draft. On the third point, absolutely no states responded to the need to adopt structural changes that would provide for co-equal indigenous participation in the operation of the Working Group.
It is clear that the Draft is already an expression of compromised aspirations of indigenous peoples. Virtually all indigenous peoples acknowledge that the Draft is an imperfect document that represents, at most a minimum standard of the rights of indigenous peoples. At this session of the open-ended working group, indigenous delegates made it clear that no changes that would serve to weaken the document would be acceptable. Despite this clear indigenous position, states have taken great liberty in suggesting changes and alterations to the Draft, designed to destroy most of the positive content of an admittedly imperfect document. Several states have made it clear that the Draft, after twelve years of debate in which every state in this Working Group had an opportunity to participate, will not be passed in its current form. To ask indigenous peoples after twelve years of work on the Draft, as the chairman of the Working Group asked, to expect the current discussions to continue for an additional seven to ten years, is both unnecessary and intolerable. Indigenous peoples are confronted on a daily basis with matters of life and death, of invasion, theft and survival. To expect us to devote critical time, resources and energy to a process that does not genuinely respect or welcome our legitimate, co-equal, decision-making participation, is unreasonable. To expect us to devote another several years to an unequal and confining process that may, in the end, harm us more than assist us, is unacceptable.
It is also clear that powerful states, such as the United States, will not allow a genuine expression of self-determination, collective rights, or territorial rights to be embodied in the Draft. It is apparent that such state positions, and these United Nations processes which legitimize them, are clearly intended to effect the further "domestication" of all indigenous peoples. We will not consent to be part of such oppressive processes.
We will not allow our presence or our participation in this forum, a forum which is organized in a manner that is contrary and hostile to our own understanding of respect and participation, to be construed as lending either tacit or active consent to this process. We leave this statement as an expression of active opposition to any and all processes that seek to address matters of fundamental concern to us, but that marginalize our authority to affect the ultimate articulation of jour rights and our interests. This statement, however, should not be judged as a mere complaint or nay saying. In the continuing spirit of mutual respect, and in the hope that we might again sit in dialogue with each other, either in your territories or ours, to discuss our mutual concerns, we provide the following recommendations:
That the Draft Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, after twelve years of consideration, discussion and debate in the working Group on Indigenous Peoples, with the extensive participation of indigenous delegates, and with full opportunity of states to contribute to the discussion, should be adopted at this session of the Working Group as the minimum international standard of the rights of indigenous peoples and nations. If states are unwilling to accept this reasonable, albeit flawed, version of the Draft, then we as indigenous peoples and nations should assert our right to strengthen the articles that have already been diluted, and/or to meet independently of the United Nations to revive our own Declaration to stand as an alternative to the ultimate state version that will almost inevitably result from the current process.
That any and all future sessions of United Nations bodies concerned with the Draft Declaration on the rights of Indigenous Peoples have the conventional rules of procedure suspended so as to allow the full, effective and co-equal, decision-making (including consensus making and/or voting) participation of indigenous peoples/nations and member states concerned.
That indigenous nations and peoples, including and especially traditional representation, and not simply those tribal or indigenous governments whose legitimacy is defined or recognized by the states, be seated within and among states, on the basis of co-equality and in the spirit of the partnership described in the proclamation of the UN Decade for Indigenous Peoples
That sessions of future meetings discussing the Draft Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples convene in United Nations regional centers, such as in Bangkok, Thailand or Santiago, Chile to afford indigenous peoples a greater opportunity to participate in the deliberations on a more affordable, and a more participatory, basis. In conclusion, we have come to the realization that the processes in this body have become too arbitrary, oppressive and disrespectful of our status as indigenous nations and peoples to continue our participation. Some states will delight in our departure, but we put them on notice that they have not seen the last of us. We will continue to advance the battle for indigenous peoples' rights wherever we are, and we will continue to support, in every spiritual and physical way available to us, our indigenous brothers and sisters who remain here, and wherever they struggle. Despite all attempts by our enemies to divide us, we as the original peoples of the earth remain steadfast and strong. Perhaps, when we believe that a sufficient level of mutual respect and cooperation has developed in these halls, we may even return here to the United Nations, In the meanwhile, we will return to our homelands to assert our rights where the terrain is a bit more familiar and where the battleground is a little more level.

Peg and I retired in 2013, from our 35 year careers in Dallas and thus started a new chapter in our lives. We sold our house in Texas, relocated our belongings to storage, and moved to Arkansas where we had already purchased property several years back. Spending the winter of 2013 in a 19ft camper with our two dogs while our new house was being built is an experience that will not soon be forgotten although for many reasons you may not suspect.
It wasn't long before we realized that we wanted something more than just being retired, but something short of another full time job so Song Dog Kayaks was born and another new chapter made its beginning (chapters seem to come faster after you retire). We are having a grand time and hope you will become an active participant of this chapter with us.

KISSIMMEE, Fla. - The subject of who will close for the Phillies arose again this week, and Pete Mackanin stressed patience. He listed three names - Andrew Bailey, David Hernandez, and Cuban righthander Dalier Hinojosa, who has all of 23 innings in the majors.
"He's in the mix," Mackanin said. "They're all in the mix. It's a big mix."
With a week until the Phillies break camp, the projected bullpen is no clearer. Just about every option is in play. Mackanin expects decisions to be made at the last possible moment.
But one must be made this week. Veteran righthander Edward Mujica can exercise an opt-out clause Saturday if he is not added to the 40-man roster.
Mujica, 31, no longer possesses the kind of stuff that made him an all-star reliever in 2013. The Phillies like that he throws strikes, which is something he's done this spring. He has allowed one run on two hits and two walks with four strikeouts in six innings.
The problem is that Mujica's strikes could be hit a long way. He permitted 10 homers in just 47 innings last season.
Knowing they will need quite a few relievers to survive a 162-game season, the Phillies may decide to break camp with the arms they must keep in the majors or else lose. That bodes well for Mujica and Rule 5 pick Daniel Stumpf, who struck out both Astros batters he faced Wednesday night.
Last season, Charlie Morton made 23 starts with Pittsburgh. He threw 100 or more pitches in just five of those games. "You have to be able to throw deeper into games," Morton said.
The sinkerballer rolled 11 groundouts in a 2-1 loss to Houston. But he needed 94 pitches to complete 51/3 innings, a number that did not please Morton. The goal, he said, was to reach the sixth inning.
He did that, but not by much. "I still need to be more efficient than that," Morton said.
He was not helped by a missed catch by Darin Ruf at first base, which led to two unearned runs. Morton, who will start the third game of the season, was slowed earlier this spring by an illness that reached all corners of the Phillies clubhouse.
This time, he felt stronger.
"I feel like I'm in a good spot," Morton said.
Odubel Herrera was a late addition to the travel roster for Wednesday night's game because the coaching staff wanted to see him take batting practice. Herrera has not played in 10 straight days because of a bruised left finger.
He did not swing at full strength Wednesday. The team still believes Herrera will be ready for the start of the season, but his recovery has taken far longer than officials expected.
Carlos Ruiz returned to camp after spending a week in Panama playing for his country, which did not qualify for next season's World Baseball Classic. He started at catcher Wednesday night. . . . The Phillies reassigned catcher Gabriel Lino to minor-league camp, leaving the team with 47 players still in camp. . . . Cody Asche played four innings in a minor-league intrasquad game and had two at-bats. He could start on the disabled list with a strained rib cage.

Bordered by a perfect powder-white beach and cyan waters, this blissful boho-chic resort has been created with an authentic Mauritian charm and made to resemble a traditional local fishing village, with each thatched roof giving the impression of an unfurled sail of a fishing boat—a pirogue—from which the resort draws its name.

Stunning luxury accommodation is one of the (many) reasons Mauritius is such a sought after holiday destination. But gorgeous, luxury accommodation that is unequivocally and uniquely Mauritian (not to mention newly renovated), with each room being a beautiful standalone thatched bungalow with a terrace, tucked away in a coconut palm grove, is as rare as it is special. This is exactly what makes the accommodation at La Pirogue Mauritius so magical. Not only do the rooms represent the sail of a pirogue and boast easy access to the pristine beach, they have been built with volcanic rock from the island, helping them to maintain their integrity to their natural surrounds.

One of the most outstanding facets of La Pirogue Mauritius is how magically unique it is. Apart from the unparalleled Mauritian influence, signature offerings and outstanding and novel dining options, it's also got something you would find very difficult to find elsewhere; a dedicated wine bar. Epicures and bon vivants can indulge in the best wine from around the globe at the Van der Stel wine bar which has been designed in the same boho-chic style as the rest of the resort (post-renovation). This bar is the first of its kind on the west coast of the island and offers over 60 bottles of wine from around the world that can be enjoyed during a tasting, by the bottle or by the glass. The in-house sommelier is available to assist with wine selection and tastings, and charcuterie and cheese boards are available to complement your experience at this bar—which, if you are a fan of fine wines, is bound to be extraordinary.

Okrągłe () ist ein Dorf in der polnischen Woiwodschaft Ermland-Masuren. Es gehört zur Gmina Dąbrówno (Landgemeinde Gilgenburg) im Powiat Ostródzki (Kreis Osterode in Ostpreußen).

Geographische Lage
Okrągłe liegt westlich des Lewalder Sees () im Südwesten der Woiwodschaft Ermland-Masuren, 31 Kilometer südlich der Kreisstadt Ostróda ().

Geschichte
Bei Klein Lehwalde handelte es sich um einen weit gestreuten Ort, der noch bis zum 25. Juni 1871 Okrongeln hieß. Ab diesem Datum wurde das Dorf eine selbständige Gemeinde. Als solche wurde sie 1874 in den neu errichteten Amtsbezirk Elgenau (polnisch Elgnowo) im Kreis Osterode in Ostpreußen eingegliedert. Zu ihr gehörte auch der Wohnplatz Kolonie, der im Jahre 1905 17 Wohnhäuser umfasste.

Im Jahre 1910 zählte die Landgemeinde Klein Lehwalde 277 Einwohner. Ihre Zahl verringerte sich bis 1933 auf 205 und belief sich 1939 auf noch 180.

1945 kam das Dorf in Kriegsfolge mit dem gesamten südlichen Ostpreußen zu Polen. Klein Lehwalde erhielt die polnische Namensform "Okrągłe" und ist heute eine Ortschaft im Verbund der Gmina Dąbrówno (Landgemeinde Gilgenburg) im Powiat Ostródzki (Kreis Osterode in Ostpreußen), bis 1998 der Woiwodschaft Olsztyn, seither der Woiwodschaft Ermland-Masuren zugehörig.

hi im 16 and am certain that this is what i want to do but have no idea where to enter the business if you've got any suggestions they would be greatly appreciated.
i am picking my GCSE's next week, and i would love to do this as a job. is this a great job? what GCSE's do i need for it? is this a good job if i dont love science, but don't mind them?!
I am a student of Bsc 3rd year, Department of Zoology, Pandu college, Assam. I would like to inform you that along with my studies, I am working as a professional script writer at 'Doordarshan Kendra Guwahati', Assamese entertainment chanel 'Rang' and another assamese entertainment chanel 'Prag'. I am also working as a chief assistant diretor in 'Rang' and 'Prag' chanel. Till today I have independently directed 6 documentaries and one short film. Sir, I would like to spread awareness to the people about wild life conservation by wildlife film making. I want to take wild life film making as my career. Is there any wild life film making courses available in India? I would be grateful if you provide your valuable advice and some help to take wild life film making as my career.
Once I had an intense desire to come to become a wild life film maker! But I didn't get anyone to advice or support! After almost 8 years I am rethinking about the same! I found your post really inspirational regarding it! It is such a challenging as well as interesting job!
The parties involved negotiate a deal and sign contracts. Once all parties have met and the deal has been set, the film may proceed into the pre production period. Thanks.
Best Business Plan can help perform a number of tasks for those who write and read them.
Great blog post, very useful. I wanted to add something (it's kind of a question but I can't work out how to phrase it properly), I know I have the will and perseverance to do this and I think people would say that I'm a nice person, I'm always as polite as I can be, however I'm unlikely to randomly start a conversation without a lot of anxiety and I am not very pushy, it's just not me. Things have been going well for me so far but do you think this will hinder me? Also do you know of any female wildlife film-makers, so far I know of two, it would be nice to have some more role-models? Thank you.
Sir I'm prafull Verma from India 17 years old I want to be next Mike how to be please guide me.

Making art is making a model of the world. It proposes what the world might look like or what the world does, in fact, look like if we only look at it differently. I am especially interested in models exploring our notions of self and other in relation to how we live in our societies and in the globalized world of today.
Art can activate our imagination, listen to us, create beauty, exercise critique; it insists on complexity—rather than easy-to-consume one-liners—and in that, forcefully pushes in the opposite direction of populism. Art challenges notions of identity, of belonging, and estrangement, and questions borders and the distribution of privilege, to mention only some of the things it is capable of doing. To me, Green light - An artistic workshop is about all of the above. It is a model of the world that is a part of the world. The Green light project began at a specific moment in time, in 2015, when refugees were arriving in Europe by the hundreds of thousands, fleeing hardship, political and economic instability, and war in their home countries. Although these problems had begun years before, many—myself included—often felt emotionally disconnected from the reality of what we read or saw on the news. Art and culture, I believe, can have a pertinent role to play in responding to such events: as a start, it can reverse our emotional disconnect and, whether directly or indirectly, inspire us to take action. This conviction was also shared by Francesca von Habsburg, founder of Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary (TBA21), and by TBA21's chief curator Daniela Zyman, with whom I had extensive conversations throughout the late summer of that year. We believe that culture is able to shine a light on and shape discussions about contemporary global challenges such as climate change and forced migration, and is able to develop new models of interaction and catalyze positive change.
But how does one proceed from the assembly of a light module to social change? The journey might seem long and convoluted, yet a simple but crucial first step is to trust the potential in the non-spectacular situation of sitting down together and doing something basic with our hands—in this case, working on a lamp that is more easily assembled by two pairs of hands than one. Add to that a multifaceted program of shared learning, with practical workshops, counseling, language classes, cooking, sports and cultural events, and knowledge exchange. What emerges during these activities is a shared social space. And once the initial nervousness has evaporated, moments of relaxed enjoyment unfold, pieces of personal history are exchanged. This elicits a feeling of interconnectedness that is incredibly strong. I believe that allowing ourselves to be open to this feeling is key to intensifying our engagement in society and to participating actively in coming up with solutions in times where forced migration affects us all.
The Green light lamp module is a stackable polyhedral unit, initially developed by the late Einar Thorsteinn, a mathematician and architect who was a close friend of mine. Einar called it the "super cube," and it is one of numerous geometric studies that he and I began together and that my studio team and I have continued working on over the years. The Green light units themselves are made mostly of recycled and natural materials and fitted with small green LEDs. They can be hung alone or assembled into larger light sculptures. I love the fact that you can make unruly, wild growths of lamps from them as well as ordered structures like a luminous wall or a sphere. The question for me is not so much what the lamp is, but what it does, both in the social spaces out of which it emerges and in the physical spaces in which it is installed. Every Green light has agency.
I undertook the Green light project with TBA21 with the hope of developing a scalable model that would work in an art context, but could reach beyond it and also be implemented in a school, a public library, or a political institute. So far, we have been able to bring different versions of the project to Salzburg, Basel, Houston, and Prague, in addition to Vienna. And, now, we are presenting the Green light model at the Venice Biennale in an attempt to bring one of the most urgent issues today to the heart of the art world. Next up is Yokohama, and further stations are under consideration. While the Green light community expands, I hope that cities, national governments, and policy-makers also begin to see the potential of creative approaches to welcoming refugees, addressing concerns among their populations, and devising collective solutions. Populations around the world will become increasingly multi-ethnic and multicultural and it is clear that the near and distant future will continue to be shaped by migration. We therefore need solutions, now and into the future, at all levels of society.

Campus rioting egged on by journo-terrorists in the mainstream media
Saturday, February 04, 2017 by: JD Heyes
Tags: domestic terrorism, media, riots, UC Berkeley
(Natural News) Another riot broke out on another university campus last Wednesday night as haters of law and order egged on by co-conspirator journo-terrorists in the media destroyed public and private property and attacked supporters of President Donald J. Trump, beating at least one man unconscious.
As you're likely aware by now, domestic terrorists – let's not call them "protesters" because that's not what they are – shut down a planned event featuring Trump supporter and Breitbart senior editor Milo Yiannopoulos, setting fires, smashing windows, and using steel pipes to beat several people before police moved in.
However, the terrorism didn't end there, as reported by the San Francisco Chronicle:
But even after the event's cancellation, hundreds of protesters spilled off campus into the city streets, where the violence continued as they confronted drivers, engaged in fights, smashed storefront windows and set fires.
In the past, such terrorism has been staged by groups funded by billionaire anarchist George Soros, a Nazi collaborator who has literally taken over the Democratic Party. What's more, Democrats don't seem to mind; while they compare Trump to a Nazi, Democratic leaders are in bed with someone who actually helped them. (RELATED: Keep track of who's behind the collapse of our society at Terrorism.news)
As noted by the Gateway Pundit, Soros' filthy hands are all over the anti-Trump, anti-GOP violence in recent months:
A week before last Soros was reported as being behind 50 Groups involved in the 'Women's Protests' the day after the inauguration.
Before that Soros groups were reportedly being used by social media giants to combat 'Fake News'. These groups will use the Soros funded website Snopes which is notorious for its far left leaning positions on all issues related to politics. The result of these efforts will be more far left news supported by the Nazi collaborator.
Before this, Soros was connected to the groups demanding the recounts after the November 8th election. And at about the same time, Soros money was funding protests shortly after the election results were official.
Then, of course, there is the pathetic, co-conspirator media, which gives a platform to left-wing hate-mongers spewing all kinds of crazy, disgusting things that, were Barack Obama still in office, would have been treated as nothing less than treason (and why isn't he speaking out against all of this violence?).
For instance, little-watched MSNBC put Hillary Clinton's vice presidential pick, Senator Tim Kaine of Virginia, on the air and let him say this, unchallenged, about the Democratic anti-Trump "strategy" moving forward:
What we've got to do is fight in Congress, fight in the courts, fight in the streets, fight online, fight at the ballot box, and now there's the momentum to be able to do this. And we're not afraid of the popular outcry, we're energized by it and that's going to help us do our job and do it better.
Then, Foreign Policy published this unhinged screed from a former State Department "senior advisor," Rosa Brooks, who actually suggested a military coup to remove Trump from office. Claiming Trump is "crazy," she implores us to read the 25th Amendment to the Constitution, which gives instruction on how to remove a president from office that has been deemed unfit.
And why is Trump unfit? Because the angry Left has proclaimed it so! And just look at what he's doing to the country!
Who's the real lunatic here? I say it's a former government "advisor" who recommends the military overthrow a duly elected U.S. president, as if we were a banana republic. (RELATED: The angry Left won't stop until the civil society is destroyed – stay tuned at Collapse.news)
That any media outlet would even give someone a platform to suggest war in the streets and a military coup to remove our president proves once again that journo-terrorists are working hand in hand with actual terrorists funded by a real Nazi sympathizer to destroy civil rights.
Here is what the "tolerant" Left is really like:

The rapid emergence of AI is creating an urgent need for new ways to deploy computer vision, deep learning, and other analytics into embedded applications.
Developers have many options for training their models, with popular frameworks such as TensorFlow, MXNet, and Caffe ready to do the heavy lifting. But once it's time to deploy that model, developers have even more options, with associated problems.
One of the biggest problems is the mismatch between embedded hardware and AI tooling. Because AI started in high-performance data centers, the tooling was designed to target uniform, high-performance resources. In contrast, embedded systems are highly cost- and power-constrained, and use a wide variety of architectures—often including heterogeneous mixes of CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, and other processors.
To deploy AI into the messy world of embedded systems, developers need embedded-specific tools that can work with a variety of architectures. These tools should use existing embedded APIs and frameworks to maximize portability, flexibility, and scalability. And the tools should produce inference engines optimized for the resource-constrained realities of embedded design.
For developers looking to embed AI capabilities, the solution to these challenges may lie in the OpenVINO (Open Visual Inference & Neural network Optimization) toolkit Formerly known as the Intel® Computer Vision SDK, OpenVINO is a multi-platform tool kit that scales across Intel vision products, providing a common API for Intel processors, Intel integrated graphics, Intel FPGAs, and the Intel® Movidius™ Neural Compute Stick.
OpenVINO includes computer vision, deep learning, and pipeline optimization. It is based on the convolutional neural networks (CNNs) widely used for pattern recognition in computer vision. The kit also leverages existing frameworks, including a variety of Intel computer vision libraries and the Intel Deep Learning Framework.
The kit provides broad processor support through three APIs: the Deep Learning Deployment toolkit, as well as optimized functions for both OpenCV and Open VX (Figure 1).
With this wide base of support, as well as Windows and Linux operating systems, developers can bring deep-learning inference to embedded systems using an optimized combination of hardware architectures.
The first step in using OpenVINO is training the model. The toolkit includesmany cloud-based frameworks that this can be done through, such as Caffe, TensorFlow, or MXNet. Intel even has its own open-source deep-learning framework, called neon™.
The next step is to import the trained model into the OpenVINO Deep Learning Deployment Toolkit, which comprises primarily the Run Model Optimizer and the Inference Engine (Figure 1, again).
The Optimizer is a Python-based command-line tool that imports the trained model and performs analysis and adjustments for optimal execution of the static trained models on the edge device. It then serializes and adjusts the model into an intermediate representation (IR) format (.xml, .bin, OpenVINO). The IR is imported into the Inference Engine, with a common API across all processing hardware options with optimized execution.
For example, some layers can be executed on a GPU and others, such as custom layers, can be executed on a CPU. Developers can also take advantage of asynchronous execution to improve frame-rate performance while limiting wasted cycles. The inference can be further optimized using a C++ AP to work on IR files.
Features such as access to OpenCV and OpenVX let users create custom kernels and use Computer Vision Libraries' functions as well as Intel's computer vision libraries. Developers can also use a growing repository of OpenCL starting points in OpenCV to add customized code.
It's worth noting that while the capabilities of OpenVINO and its Deep Learning Deployment Toolkit are already extensive, they're also constantly being updated by Intel to improve development and hardware acceleration of CNN deep-learning algorithms. That said, performance improvements to date compared to standard Caffe and OpenCV show marked improvement (Figure 2).
To help developers get a smart-vision application off the ground more quickly, Intel partnered with a number of ecosystem members to develop accelerator development kits supporting OpenVINO. For example, the UP Squared AI Vision Development Kit from UP ! Bridge the gap is ideal for conceptualization and early development (Figure 3).
The kit is based on an Intel Atom® x7 processor with an integrated GPU and VPU. It also supports a range of hardware options, including the Intel® Movidius™ Myriad™ 2 VPU in a Mini PCIe form factor that comes with the kit.
The kit is fully configured for OpenVINO. Developers can prototype with the cloud-based Arduino® Create IDE and optimize performance using Intel® System Studio tool suite. This software is included on a pre-installed custom Ubuntu Desktop OS configured to allow for computer vision development out of the box.
For developers with a few cycles to spare, note that UP is a brand from AAEON Europe, which is actively looking for members to join its AAEON Community Beta Program. Benefits include early access to AAEON products, free samples of boards, the option to participate in its community content development, and discounts.

Feliks Światopełk Słupski (ur. 1 maja 1868 w Skolimowie, zm. 22 marca 1950 w Warszawie) – polski malarz, portrecista, przedstawiciel realizmu, pedagog. Pochowany na Cmentarzu Powązkowskim.

Tworzył w Warszawie w pierwszym trzydziestoleciu XX wieku.

Życiorys

Młodość
Syn Franciszka Świętopełka-Słupskiego i Anny z Biesiekierskich, brat Zygmunta. W latach 1885-1989 kształcił się pod kierunkiem Wojciecha Gersona, prywatnie oraz w prowadzonej przez niego warszawskiej Klasie Rysunkowej przy Szkole Sztuk Pięknych w Warszawie. W roku 1888 uzyskał stypendium Towarzystwa Zachęty Sztuk Pięknych im. Mikołaja Kopernika z fundacji Jana Matejki. Dwa lata później przeniósł się do Monachium, gdzie uczył się w . Od roku 1891 do 1897 przebywał w Paryżu, gdzie studiował w Académie Julian. Uczył się u malarzy takich jak Wojciech Gerson, Jules Joseph Lefebvre, Jean-Paul Laurens,  czy Jean-Joseph Benjamin Constant.

Życie zawodowe
W roku 1904, wraz z żoną, malarką, Marią z Zarembów, założył w Warszawie prywatną szkołę rysunku (Szkoła Malarstwa Feliksa i Marii Słupskich przy ul. Wilczej). Równocześnie pracował jako nauczyciel rysunków w Szkole Handlowej Zgromadzenia Kupców m. Warszawy oraz w latach 1912–1914 w Seminarium Nauczycielskim na Ursynowie, gdzie zajmował się rysunkiem i malarstwem. W okresie 1921–1935 piastował stanowisko dyrektora i wykładowcy w Szkole Sztuk Pięknych im. Wojciecha Gersona w Warszawie. W latach 1923–1939 uczył rysunku w Akademii Stomatologicznej.

Słupski był członkiem rzeczywistym Towarzystwa Zachęty Sztuk Pięknych (TZSP). W roku 1927 został członkiem jury salonu, a w 1929 uzyskał dyplom honorowy oraz prawo hors concours, które upoważniało go do wystawienia dzieł w salonach warszawskich bez konieczności wcześniejszego przedstawiania ich do oceny komisji kwalifikacyjnej.

Był autorem wielu recenzji i artykułów, oraz książki O nauczaniu sztuk plastycznych uwag kilka, w której zawarł swój program nauczania, propagujący tradycyjne metody (m.in. kopiowanie gipsowych figur w pracowni). Wielokrotnie wygłaszał wykłady i odczyty dotyczące sztuk plastycznych.

Twórczość
Specjalizował się w malarstwie sztalugowym, malował portrety, pejzaże, martwe natury, kompozycje kwiatowe, miniatury portretowe na kości słoniowej. Korzystał najchętniej z techniki olejnej i akwarelowej. Malował też obrazy o charakterze rodzajowym (znane jedynie z tytułów): Rozbawiona, W pracowni, Zaraz pójdzie na pokutę, Na poddaszu.

Prace Feliksa Słupskiego pokazywane były między innymi w Paryżu, na salonach Warszawy (wystawa 100 lat malarstwa polskiego w Pałacu w Łazienkach w 1919, wystawy i salony TZSP w l.1918–1939, Salonie Zachęty w r. 1925/6), Krakowa (wystawy TPSP: Malarze warszawscy w 1936, wystawa bieżąca w 1937) i Poznania (wystawa TPSP –1937). Niektóre obrazy były reprodukowane w pismach: Świat (1913) i Tygodnik Ilustrowany (1914). Malarz nie doczekał się jednak ani za życia ani po śmierci dużej wystawy monograficznej.

Znakomita część jego obrazów zaginęła w czasie okupacji, jego pracownia przy ul. Pięknej w Warszawie została zbombardowana, a płótna znajdujące się w prywatnych kolekcjach częściowo rozkradzione. Kilka obrazów do dziś widnieje na liście strat wojennych. Część znajduje się w zbiorach oddziałów Muzeum Narodowego w Zachęcie i Nieborowie, pozostałe w kolekcjach prywatnych.

HOLLY HERNDON
That the trailblazing California-based sound artist and composer seems to take an academic approach to electronica is no surprise: Herndon is currently working towards a phD at Stanford. On her inventive new album, Platform (4AD), the incorporation of voice gives her electronic meanderings a distinct emotional nucleus.

Though the topic of Aromanticism, the L.A.-based singer-songwriter's excellent debut album, may eschew the traditional notions of romantic love, his work has earned him the ardent devotion of many. It's easy to understand why: While Sumney's music is smart and soulful, it's his voice—graceful and glimmering, adroitly volleying between tenor and falsetto—that is irresistible.
TUNE-YARDS
Since releasing her debut album in 2008, Merrill Gabrus, aka Tune-Yards (her project with partner Nate Brenner), has been crafting music that defies categorization. Her latest, I Can Feel You Creep Into My Private Life, is part sonic experimentation, part social observation. She'll be on tour this summer and, come fall, will share the stage […]
LOLA KIRKE
Fans of Mozart in the Jungle, Amazon's classical music dramedy, will recognize Lola Kirke as whipsmart oboist and aspiring conductor Hailey. And the actress' (she can also be seen in the recent film Untogether opposite her sister Jemima) musical proclivities extend off-screen: The longtime singer-songwriter will release her debut album this year.
Though their sound is pure Americana (they count Emmylou Harris, Johnny Cash, and Townes Van Zandt as muses), Klara and Johanna Söderberg, the stylish sisters behind First Aid Kit are, in fact, Swedish. On their fourth album, Ruins, released earlier this year, their bucolic harmonies get an assist from Wilco's Glenn Kotche and R.E.M.'s Peter […]
The Getaway issue
A journey is unique in its ability to inspire extraordinary discoveries, art, stories, and also food. Now, as the need to get away from it all, if only for the duration of a meal, feels more urgent than ever, the summer 2018 Getaway edition of Gather explores the many shapes that an escape might take.

IVAA advocates for national recognition of anthroposophic medicine and its integration into national health systems because we believe this will contribute to quality of health care.
In Brazil, anthroposophic medicine is one of the five therapy systems of the Ministry of Health's National Policy on Integrative and Complementary Practices of the Unified Health System (PNPIC). Specialization in anthroposophic medicine of physicians, pharmacists and other professions are officially recognized.
In Switzerland, anthroposophic medicine is one of the five complementary medicine systems that are officially recognized and integrated into the health system. This includes reimbursement through the basic insurance scheme, regulatory pathway for anthroposophic medicinal products (AMP), recognition of anthroposophic medicine trainings and introductory teaching in medical school.
A number of public hospitals or hospitals that are part of the national health system are providing anthroposophic medicine in integration with conventional care.
This integration means that physician and nursing staff have training in anthroposophic medicine, that anthroposophic medicinal products are prescribed and anthroposophic nursing techniques are used and that at least some of the additional anthroposophic therapies like arts therapies are available. Some of these hospitals have sought certification through the Anthromed label.
IVAA advocates that more hospitals start to integrate approaches from anthroposophic medicine. A recent experience of introducing anthroposophic medicine in the paediatric department of Fribourg Hospital indicates it is both cost-effective and results in high patient satisfaction. Current care centers integrating anthroposophic approaches are listed here.
Witten/Herdecke University (Germany) provides the "Integrated Curriculum for Anthroposophic Medicine" as a full training program in anthroposophic medicine that is taught in integration with the 6-year conventional medical school curriculum. Introduction about anthroposophic medicine is taught to medical students as part of complementary medicine curriculum at several other universities.
A university chair in anthroposophic medicine has been established at Witten/Herdecke University (Germany) and Berne University (Switzerland).
Other universities have adjunct professors of anthroposophic medicine or professors with specialization in anthroposophic medicine.
At the individual patient level anthroposophic medicine is always practiced in integration with conventional medicine as physicians and nurses are trained both in conventional and anthroposophic medicine and use both approaches. Anthroposophic physicians collaborate closely with different medical specialists and different anthroposophic therapists.

Several months back I finished reading the End of Average by Harvard's Todd Rose, which now sits at #7 of my Top Recommended Books list.
Let me just say, if you are a student of studying talent, as I am, then this is a must-read.
It has greatly influenced my thinking and his work could be the launchpad to a massive change in how we understand education, personal development, hiring, and the evaluation of individual performance and of employees and personnel.
Todd Rose and his colleagues are at the leading edge of a new science – The Science of the Individual, which is a multi-disciplinary field drawing upon recent scientific and mathematical findings to demonstrate that it is simply not possible to draw meaningful conclusions about human beings using statistical averages.
In the End of Average, Todd Rose provokes us to see how for the past century we've all been part of a large scale series of ongoing experiments conducted by a handful of social scientists who thought they could correctly identify how groups of people behave and performed based on averages.
Turns out, they were wrong and you, me, and everyone else that's been through our "factorized" educational system, or who has worked in corporate America, has been touched by this massive error and cultural bias.
"For more than a century, this average-size-fits-all model has ignored our individuality and failed to recognize talent," – Todd Rose.
Our culture is built around averageness, an idea that was first introduced in the early nineteenth century by Adolphe Quetelet, a Belgian astronomer and statistician.
Quetelet was trying to measure planetary speed. He came up with the then novel idea to find the average of variable astronomical observations in the belief that the result would be accurate.
Astronomers thought the average of all the data points was the correct speed: and the deviation was error. This idea of average being perfect took hold. Average became sought-after perfection and everything else well it became deviation.
Quetelet then took it a step further and began to apply the concept of averagism to human beings and invented the then novel idea of the 'average man' in 1835.
That is he took a number of attributes like physical and intellectual measures then proceeded to use the mean of these values to create a "average man".
Again everyone outside of the average or that normal distribution was considered to be deviation.
And so began the obsession with the average.
Then and now we live in a world filled of averages and are constantly rated against these averages.
From IQ, GPA, average income, BMI, average weight, average % of bodyfat, average lifespan, average # of years in school, etc. etc.
Fast forward – to the 1940s, and researchers at the air force were gathering data on 1,000's of would be pilots and measuring them across ten anatomical dimensions in the hope of finding the best cockpit design and then recruiting pilots who measured up to fit in them.
At the same time the search was on to find female perfection.
Dr. Robert Dickinson, Chief of Obstetrics and Gynecology, and his collaborators at the Brooklyn Hospital were taking physical measurements of 15,000 young adult women and created a sculpture called Norma that can be seen today in the Cleveland Health Museum.
The trouble was that there were almost no pilots or young women who actually matched the (average) ideal. There was too much individual variation.
At this point you may be asking what's the big deal about using averages?
Averages are very useful however there's a common drawback when you appeal to or design to the lowest common denominator.
Turns out when you design for everybody you design for nobody.
"By designing the cockpit for the average man, they were designing jets for nobody," says Rose of the Air Force's experiment.
The Air Force responded by abandoning the idea of "designing-to-average" physical stature, demanding that manufacturers instead design "to the edges" – i.e. adjustable for extremes of size, fitting both the tallest or the shortest, and those with wide or narrow chests.
This led to innovations we now take for granted, such as adjustable seats.
Again design to the average may not be a big deal if we are talking about mass market goods like socks or apparel.
Most of us are after all are willing to trade off on fit and comfort for reduced price and the convenience of being able to buy them anywhere.
But what if we're talking about something like education?
And in Rose's mind, averages have failed us spectacularly – especially in our educational institutions.
"We may not all need to fit into a fighter cockpit, but we all have had to fit into a classroom," he says.
And we have yet to see the equivalent of adjustable seating within education or equivalent endeavours.
The educational system we have nowadays is still in large part the same system we've had since the industrial revolution. A system designed to churn out average workers would who fit like cogs into assembly line companies.
So i think we can all agree that broad conclusions say almost nothing about individual experience and capacities.
Intuitively we know this isn't true. Yet the appeal of the average has become a widespread cultural blind spot.
So I've given you a broad swath of some of Rose's big ideas, so let me now relate some of this to trading.
Rose shares three principles to help us end our obsession with average.
Let me share with you these 3 principles and how we can apply them to trading.
The key idea here is that Over-simplifying leaves out necessary complexity.
Average is one smooth number derived from varying (jagged) data points.
By emphasizing and valuing Jaggedness this restores accuracy as an individual signature.
One graphic in the book shows a tall thin man and a short stout man. Both might weigh the same, but that's about all you can say. Average weight is hence an oversimplification.
Simplicity in turn is the enemy of accuracy.
Think about how this relates to trading.
Each individual is better adapted to some things and not to others and Each of us brings different data points to trading.
Think of your own pertinent attributes that relate to trading – some are cognitive, and some are skill and knowledge based.
All of these in composite form our individual jagged signature.
So here's the takeaway if your goal is become a great trader, there is no such thing as an average great trader.
Each trader has a jagged sized profile that is each trader varies on dimensions of learning, skill, and understanding, even geniuses have strengths and weaknesses.
Hence the way you develop as a trader is through cultivating strong awareness and having a strong self assessment of your unique skills, strengths, and weaknesses.
Through this awareness you can cut through the average and instead embrace your jaggedness and be willing to confront your true self.
You cannot be Paul Tudor Jones or Warren Buffett, I'm sure they have are hard enough time being themselves, you can only be you.
So let me leave you with a question, what it is that makes you uniquely you?
Choose to make that your orientation.
The 2nd principle is the Context Principle.
Trait theorists and those who are believers of personality typing tend to believe we're either for instance introverts or extroverts.
But humans aren't fixed entities. Nor are we simple average abstractions.
Personality typing such as Myers-Briggs Type Indicator and Enneagram don't take situation variability into account.
Trait theory has come under a lot of criticism nowadays for many reasons including it's poor track record of predicting individual behaviours and for it's inability to account for why people act the way they do.
For instance let's take the issue of trader discipline.
We all have heard the often quoted importance of being a disciplined trader.
However what does this even mean? How does that even begin to address the behavior of being disciplined? It doesn't.
That's like telling an alcoholic not to drink so much.
What is important in understanding and actually changing behavior is to understand under what context this behaviour expresses itself.
The same trader who fails to take their stops in a disciplined manner may be the same trader who wakes up early at 5am each morning to go for a 10km run in sun, rain, or snow 5 days a week.
So who's to say that this trader isn't disciplined?
What is more accurate to say is that personalities aren't consistent.
We're influenced by situations we find ourselves in: context.
That is each person has a unique set of behavioural "if-then signatures", which are more meaningful than any overarching characterization.
So the takeaway is to stop falling in the trap of labelling yourself as this or that.
The reality is you have a certain set of traits that show up based upon the context.
Again apply awareness to your traits.
For instance you may generally be a disciplined trader however you may find yourself acting out of character based upon a certain trigger.
Perhaps this occurs when you have had a set of losses, or get low ticked, that you let your mounting frustration get the best of you and under this context you move or remove your well planned stop.
The practice is to begin to build a list of if then signatures so that you can better understand how you behave and want to behave in these specific circumstances.
The final principle is the Pathway principle.
While some occupations demand a rigid pathway, not all do. Especially not trading.
Given the low barrier to entry, one only needs to fund a brokerage account to become a "trader". You don't even need to pass an examination.
And so we see a wide range of backgrounds and personalities that show up to trading and it always irks me when i see One-dimensional and dogmatic thinkers who see only one right path to trading success.
The truth is that there are multiple pathways one can take to becoming successful.
For some this may involve reading books, taking courses, hiring coaches, finding mentors, trying different strategies, instruments, etc.
Unlike traditional schooling where success means clocking seat time and not failing "required" courses, trading success requires that one successfully embody a set of skills and mindsets.
The length of time it may take to embody these sets of skills and mindsets can take anywhere between 2 years to 10 years, and some would argue that it never ends.
Given the uniqueness that each one of us brings to the table this is why I always call learning to trade a journey.
Each person has to find their own path towards consistently extracting capital out of the markets.
IF there is one shortcut or one time tested pathway I can leave you with it is to seek guidance from people who have been in your shoes. Their journey will most resemble your journey and will in turn most resonate with you.
I hope you can now appreciate how average thinking destroys talent.
To be a successful trader and investor one of the greatest assets you can develop is your individuality.
It is however our need to conform that keeps us trading and investing like the herd.
So what can you do to begin to embrace your edges so you not just trading and investing like the herd?
Emotional Are Large Losses Necessary?


Products of the Schreier family have been used in Banach space theory to built important objects such as the Tsirelson space. In order to generalize these constructions to the nonseparable setting, the families had to be generalized to uncountable index sets. We will present the link between the families and their corresponding Banach spaces and will focus on how to define and construct those families. More precisely, we will present the method (appearing in our recent joint work with Jordi Lopez-Abad and Stevo Todorcevic) to construct such families below the first Mahlo cardinal, which involves defining a family on a tree out of a family on its chains and a family on its antichains, and analyzing the combinatorial structure of it using Ramsey methods.
Christina Brech is an Assistant Professor at the University of São Paulo (Brazil) since 2010. Her research interests concentrate in applications of set theory to the geometry of Banach spaces, field on which she obtained her PhD degree in 2008, in a joint program (cotutelle) at the University of Paris 7 and at the University of São Paulo, under the codirection of Piotr Koszmider and Stevo Todorcevic.
She spent 18 months at the State University of Campinas (Brazil) as a postdoc in 2008-2009 and holds a research grant from CNPq (Bolsa de Produtividade em Pesquisa) since 2013. She is currently a member of the Committe on Logic in Latin America of the ASL and an ambassador of the Committee for Women in Mathematics of the IMU.

It's been a while since I've checked in to see what French designer Sebastien Wierinck (previously here) has been up to, and not only has he been busy at work with his tubular installations and benches, but the Sebastien Wierinck WorkShop also has a nice new website. One of the newer projects is a white tube installation in the recently renovated J1 Hangar, a 6,000 sq. meter seafront space in Marseille, France, made available to the European Capital of Culture as an exhibition space. Wierinck's long and winding recycled polyethylene plastic tubes occupy the large space beautifully, creating seating space and lighting in addition to just looking cool.
The J1 Hangar and tubular installation will reopen in October and be open to the public through January 2014.
