Documenta 14 is the first to be held in two locations – in Kassel and Athens. Three voices from the Greek capital.
"Learning from Athens" is what Adam Szymczyk, curator of Documenta 14, aims to achieve with the first Documenta to be held in two locations. The Greek part of the exhibition ended in July. Do people in Athens feel that their voice has been heard? A festival organiser, an artist and a member of the Documenta choir give us their impressions.
There was something magical about those first days, about first sharing our ideas.
"Documenta 14 created a forum in Athens in which all local cultural institutions worked together. The fact that something like this has happened in Athens – in a city that was more emancipated than ever before in its contemporary history – has generated a great deal of hope in the cultural scene. The cooperation between individuals, institutions, schools, advisory bodies and government created such energy that it also spread to visitors.
One of the most exciting moments was when Adam Szymczyk revealed his idea to us in a small group. Another unforgettable experience was when, after endless discussion and effort, we were able to welcome roughly half of the participating artists to Athens three years before the opening. There was something magical about those first days, about first sharing our ideas. I will never forget the love, the energy, the hope, the curiosity, the longing – the urge to create that circulated through that room. There was an unexpressed confidence that everything would come together.
For me, Adam Szymczyk's decision to bring it here is one of the most brilliant ideas in the art scene of the last ten years.
"The Documenta divided the Athens art scene, but I believe there is something good about that. Outsider circles tend to form cliques, and that makes people small-minded. From that perspective, the Documenta was something like a hint of fresh destruction. I remember the opening of an exhibition that was curated by Milovan Farronato. We really thought the building was in danger because the crush was so great. That is just one example of how the Documenta in Athens was a great success.
For me, Adam Szymczyk's decision to bring it here is one of the most brilliant ideas in the art scene of the last ten years. Just think how much it was discussed and how many people responded! We had a plethora of events, and every curator I know wanted to do something in Athens.
I am optimistic that the Documenta has provided the tools with which we can relearn history and imagine an alternative future.
"Whether in Athens or Kassel, the Documenta has become an impressively complex platform for enabling the debate on the crisis of democracy to unfold – for example, by focusing on the myths associated with the rise of the nation-state and the connection between capitalism and colonial policy. A real understanding between Germany and Greece will only develop through the willingness of individual citizens to reject media propaganda and nationalist discourses.
Antidote to small-mindedness: every time the international art world declares Kassel as its capital, visitors can look forward to experiments and extremes.

Die Otzdorfer Madonna ist eine aus Lindenholz geschnitzte Madonnenskulptur des 12. Jahrhunderts, die zur Dresdner Skulpturensammlung zählt. Sie ist eine der ältesten erhaltenen Holzskulpturen Sachsens.

Beschreibung
Maria wird als Himmelskönigin dargestellt, mit Zepter und Buch. Auf ihrem Schoß sitzt das Christuskind.

Die etwa 55 cm hohe, 17 cm breite und 15 cm tiefe Figur erscheint blockhaft in sich geschlossen, Hohlräume und tiefe Mulden an der Außenseite wurden bei der Skulpturierung weitgehend vermieden, damit das Licht die kubische Geschlossenheit nicht auflöst. Die Gewandfalten sind geschmeidig und flach an den plastischen Kern geschichtet. Lediglich der Kopf des auf ihrem Schoß sitzenden Jesuskindes und die rechte Hand der Gottesmutter (beides Einsätze) lösen sich aus der Komposition heraus.

Anhaftende Farbreste deuten darauf hin, dass die Figur – anders als andere gleichzeitig entstandene Skulpturen – nicht vergoldet, sondern bemalt war.

Geschichte
Die Entstehung der Figur wird zwischen 1160 und 1180 datiert. Sie stammt aus der Kirche in Otzdorf (heute Ortsteil der Stadt Roßwein) bei Döbeln, wo sie nach einem Kirchenumbau 1713 auf den Dachboden der Kirche verbracht wurde und dort in Vergessenheit geriet. Zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts wurde die Skulptur wiederentdeckt und befand sich in den 1960er Jahren in einem kleinen Museum mittelalterlicher Plastik auf der Albrechtsburg in Meißen. Seit 2009 ist sie im Schloßbergmuseum Chemnitz ausgestellt, eine Kopie wurde 2002 in der Kirche von Otzdorf aufgestellt.

EYE 2 EYE After All... reviews
This sophomore effort by French outfit Eye 2 Eye should please many fans of what's coined Neo Progressive rock, as well as quite a few followers of the more vintage-sounding symphonic prog expression - as long as the latter don't mind modern sounding synths that is.
Tracks close to or of epic length, carefully crafted guitar patterns of the melodic variety underscored neatly by the bass guitar with all manners of keyboards, organs and synths in the back of the mix is the name of the game here, sometimes sounding like a UK act of the mid 80's suddenly discovered while at other times the band are closer to the more symphonic moments of German act Eloy in their overall sound.
Some odd choices, at times somewhat weak and accented vocals and a production that on a very few occasions fails to do the music justice is the main negatives here. All of them minor points, but in total enough to make this a very strong effort rather than an instant classic.
Fans of Neo Prog may well regard this as one of the better albums of 2009 though.

Review by Marty McFly
SPECIAL COLLABORATOR Errors and Omissions Team
When speaking of Neo-prog, one can't help to not compare this with Martigan's album. Most people will probably more like Mart (y?), because it's far more well known, but this one also has a lot to offer. It's problem to promote album, to get people know about it. So I hope my review will help you to eventually choose, or hate this one (I hope for first choice).
It's Neo-prog, maybe typical sound of neo, for me characteristic by guitar sound and certain composition of songs, in other words, structure. It's hard to describe it, I just feel it. That this album is good example of Neo-prog. Second track, Tears of a Clown really reminded me Marillion's first album. Not by music, or at least not much, but more like with atmosphere, idea of sad clown. Cold and Happy, I can almost see imagination of some distant country, standing on a ridge and watching forest landscape under my feet, many meters down, in a land and time, when kings still reigned, even the lyrics are completely different. It's epic album and is full of mostly longer tracks. I wonder, why (when I first listened this album) C & H charmed me so much. I know the reason, it's because this song has magic inside. It's here as one of the elements to make final impression. And not only this song, most of them. Only track I don't like much is first, Overture intro, but that's not important one. Not bad, but more like setting mood, just introduction to what will await, full of unfulfilled ideas, promising, but not satisfying. Yet.
5(+), simply inspiring masterpiece, undeservedly overlooked.

Review by b_olariu
Second album of this french neo prog band followed after 3 years from first one named After all is a natural continuation over the previous one, but again some mediocre moments combined with some good make from this album only a good one. As I said on previous review , same problems are here again. On vocal department, sometimes the voice sounds a bit too naive and without balls, is like this guy is complaineing on every note about his tragedy in life, a fact that is almost true because the album sounds very melancholic in places, atmospheric but always kep on high level because of the keyboards passages. This is the main attraction of the band, realy if were not some truly amazing key arrangements on both albums, this band were a forgetable one , at least for me, because the rest are usual stuff, nothing really bad, but nothing oustanding either. I don't understand the high rating of this album here, ok only two reviews from 9 votes, is a good album, but to give 5 stars is a bit too much, I can't give more then 3, while is ok is far from other albums from 2009 and far from other albums from this genre. In some parts is weak and without many truly great moments that worth more then a couple of spins.

Review by Tarcisio Moura
Very interesting french neo prog outfit that offers their second CD. After All... is a concept album of sorts and while it is a ´true´ neo prog record, with everything that makes this kind of music so appealing to me (dramatic vocals, beautiful Latimer/Rothery inspired guitar solos and dreamy keyboards) , it is also clear that the band has not reached a point where they you can tell they have a sound of their own. Eye 2 Eye was obviously influenced by Pink Floyd and, specially, early Marillion. That´s part of the problem: some parts sound too much like PF while others are pure Marillion (not as much as canadian band Red Sand does, but close).
On the other hand it is also obvious that the group has very talented musicians and their songwriting is, at least, above average. Oddly enough, singer Jack Daly delivers his parts more like Steve Hogarth than Fish, even if several hints of Fish lyrics are present along with the music (a homage?). The addtion of a violin player on some tracks is a plus and I hope they use this instrument more in the future. As expected the guitar solos are brilliant and the keyboards are great too. Ok, nothing really new, but brilliant parts anyway. Production is very good.
Conclusion: a great promise. In 75 minutes of musis, After All... has lots of tasteful moments that will please the neo prog lover for sure. But the band has to hone their strong songwriting skills to make something less derivative and more original. Certainly they are more than capable of doing so. I´m looking forward to hear their next release. Maybe this will THE one. For now, they are good (most of the time very good), but hardly essential: 3,5 stars is a good rating.

Review by Warthur
French outfit Eye 2 Eye deliver a fairly straight-ahead and unadventurous neo-prog offering on After All. There's nothing really surprising or novel about the album, which is very much in the Marillion-inspired style of so many other second tier neo bands, and whilst such a musical approach can win me over when it's combined with excellent musicianship and inspired compositions, here the performances and songwriting are merely lukewarm-to-good. If you're a particular fan of this style it might be of interest to you, particularly if its emphasis on longer compositions is appealing, but I think most neo-prog fans would be able to name a dozen more interesting albums in this style without really trying

Review by apps79
At the fall of 2006 Eye 2 Eye faced the departures of Benoit Derat and Cecile Carratero, but soon they would find their replacements on singer Jack Daly and bassist Aymeric Delteil.The recording sessions for a second album started in 2008 and the following year the new album ''After all...'' saw the light with the support of Musea Records.
The line-up changes only good could have made to a band that had a rich and grandiose sound, but failed to deliver memorable material and conveincing songwriting.The receipt was the same: Mostly long tracks with plenty of changes, melodic passages and doses of symphonic grandiosity next to more downtempo atmospheric soundscapes.The influences come still from the music of MARILLION, PINK FLOYD, GENESIS and PENDRAGON with the musicianship being often absolutely bombastic and dense.What had really changed was the presence of striking melodies, the delivery of more powerful, orchestral movements and, last but not least, the presence of a new singer with a highly expressive voice.The arrangements contain plenty of changing climates, mostly in a very emotional or theatrical manner, that are tightly connected to each other, with floating synthesizers, cinematic orchestrations and deeply lyrical offerings.The guitar work is usually stunning, serving the needs of the atmosphere.Nervous riffs leave their places to thrilling solos, while there lots of GILMOUR-like smooth vibes around.The result ranges from sufficient to outstanding and the atmospheric textures are in a great balance with the melodic patterns or the more emphatic instrumental ideas.
This is certainly a welcome development over the decent but slightly colorless ''One in every crowd''.A must have for Neo/Symphonic buffs and a warmly recommended album for all lovers of atmospheric Progressive Rock...3.5 stars.

Q: Meaning of "route add -host xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx dev eth0:1" if the format is:
route add -host 192.168.1.20 gw 10.1.1.20 dev eth0:1

I know, It will route 192.168.1.20 to 10.1.1.20
Then, what's the "dev eth0:1" mean?

A: The inclusion of 'dev eth0:1' forces the kernel to use the eth0:1 interface for traffic matching the route specification.
Also in this case, the interface specification is for an alias interface or label configured on eth0.

A: you have to assign an interface to direct the traffic.
your interface is dev (device) eth0:1 the :1 is a logic id for the interface, cause you can configure multiple networks in an interface.

When we were choosing organizations to help donate, I immediately signed up for this organization. It means a lot to me to see this organization make a difference. If you help us, you will be helping lives who don't have all the things that we do, and will help kids like me be set free to live normal lives.
My name is Johnny F., someone who wants to make a difference just like I hope you will too. I am not famous or rich, I am just a normal kid noticed suffering and wants to help change the world, one step at a time. We could have just ignored the fact that kids our age or younger are enslaved, we could have just let other people solve this problem, but we wanted to help, like you will too. The world can't just ignore huge problems like these, and we can't change the world alone, we need everyone's help. Don't just keep thinking that others will change the world for you, take a stand for what you believe in and join us.
My name is Sam J., not your average 13 year old. I want to be the difference that I want to see in the world. I want to help people come out of poverty and slavery. My vision is for all of the people in the world to come together as one; to help each other as we are all friends treating each other equally.

iSyudad: Selected narratives of HPFPI Communities Asserting Their Right to the City
The National Capital Region(NCR) commonly called as Metro Manilla, is one of the twelve defined metropolitan areas in Philippines. With a population of more than 11million, Metro Manila ranks third as the most populous urban area in the world. In spite of multiple economic activities and opportunities, many of its inhabitants still remain in the state of poverty.
"The failure of the government to deliver decent housing and adequate services to majority of the urban poor were primarily rooted from poor planning, government incompetency and corruption, and complex regulatory requirements(USAID 2016)"
The increase of land value in Metro Manila, necessitated by the growing demands for commerce and financial activities, has made the drooling cycle of poverty a burden to its residents, particularly the urban poor. Their limited access to property rights and secure tenure, both in land and in housing, places them at the fringe of development — literally by residing in public lands that are also tagged as danger areas or in readily available vacant lots that, in most cases, are privately owned. Moreover, the urban poor are also considered one of the most vulnerable sectors when it comes to disasters.
The problems associated with urbanization have, in fact, a direct correlation with landlessness. Security of tenure gives urban poor communities the opportunity to increase their economic potential including gaining access to livelihood, credit and financing, thereby enabling them tto invest and upgrade living conditions.

Q: javascript sort DOM element alphabetically using innerHTML I'm loading a html from a JavaScript array with innerHTML. I'd like to sort it alphabetically, if I click an anchor tag. How can I do that? My code is pretty complex, but the for the question, this is the important part:

Order byAlphabetically ordered

How can I order the elements alphabetically by title, (#load list h3 a), I've tried the sort function, but it didn't work. What is the best way to achieve that?

A: Javascript arrays have an inbuilt function for sorting - Array.sort.  In the case of arrays of arrays the they will be sorted by the first element of each child array.  To sort by another element in the child array you can supply a compare function -

$(document).ready(function() {
  var list = [
    [1, "b"],
    [2, "c"],
    [3, "a"]
  ];
  $("#originalresults").text(list.join(','));
  list.sort(function(a, b) {
    if (a[1] > b[1])
      return 1;
    if (a[1]  b[1])
        return 1;
      if (a[1] < b[1])
        return -1;
      return 0;
    });
    $("#load_list").clear();
    ........ generate your load_list_html using the code from your question
    $("#load_list").html(load_list_html);
});

EDIT:
OK, I've re-read your question and it looks like you may be looking for a way to sort your HTML after it has been rendered.  If so you should be able to do something like this -

$(document).ready(function() {
  $("#sorter").click(function() {
    var $sections = $("#container").children().detach();
    $sections.sort(function(a, b) {
      if ($(a).find("h5 span").text() > $(b).find("h5 span").text()) return 1;
      if ($(a).find("h5 span").text() < $(b).find("h5 span").text()) return -1;
      return 0;
    });
    $("#container").append($sections);
  });
});

      D

      Something about "D"....

      Something else

      A

      The letter "A" is the first letter of the alphabet.

      Something else

      C

      "C" is the first letter of many words.

      Something else

      B

      The word bee starts with the letter "B".

      Something else

<button id="sorter">Sort Them!</button>


Fox News anchor Julie Grauert and Rob Summers attend the MFA Council Summer Party at MFA in Boston.
Madeleine Capino of Lexington and Kathie Chrisicos of Boston enjoy the MFA's Summer Party.
"Urban oasis" is a great party theme, and if that bash is held in the soaring, glass-enclosed Shapiro Family Courtyard of the Museum of Fine Arts, an enchanting escape is all but guaranteed. That's where more than 800 young arts supporters dressed in their black-tie best attended the Museum Council's ?annual Summer Party Saturday night.
Guests were welcomed to sip (even if the cocktails were hard to come by), nibble on sweet treats and late-night bites and dance to the beat of music spun by DJ Rich DiMare.
Among them: co-chairs Elizabeth Dunne Marcoulier and Jason Marcoulier, Alice Rossiter and George Lewis, Charlotte Zawel and Marc Zawel, real estate doyenne Allison Mazer, jet-set social media maven Tiffany Dowd, Nina Lewis-Schroeder, NECN's Nelly Carreno, interior designer Alexandra Pappas, and Mix 104.1's Kennedy Elsey.
The soiree also featured a juried silent auction with work by established and emerging artists including Jason Middlebrook, Maud Morgan, Julia Powell and Tess Atkinson.
The annual fete raises vital operating funds for the Museum of Fine Arts, and a portion of the proceeds from the Summer Party benefits the Museum Council Special Exhibition Fund.

Patterns: Lab seeks interested parties (adiós, little dorito man!)
Posted on October 10, 2014 October 10, 2014 by Inara Pey
Linden Lab has announced it is discontinuing development of Patterns, its sandbox game for the PC and Mac. In a press release issued on Thursday October 9th, the Lab state:
Recently, Linden Lab announced that we are working on an ambitious project to create the next-generation virtual world, while we continue to improve Second Life and grow Blocksworld. As we focus on these priorities, we have ceased development for Patterns, and we will be no longer offering the game for sale.
We at Linden Lab are extremely grateful for the adventurous early players who explored the Patterns genesis release. Those who purchased the Patterns genesis release will still be able to play their copies of the game, but features relying on server connections, such as world-sharing, will not be functional.
Patterns had early promise, and while Linden Lab focuses our efforts on our other offerings, we are still evaluating the future of the Patterns technology. Interested parties are welcome to contact us with proposals.
Patterns: development discontinued
Following the announcement, the Patterns website was taken down, and all links to it referred back to the Lab's corporate website. However, the game itself remains accessible, as per the announcement, although the loss of server-side elements means that the Cosmos for world-sharing is no longer functional, limiting users to the worlds they created and save locally or to the default worlds supplied with the game. Also, as a result of the move, keys for the game will not longer be purchasable, although existing keys will remain redeemable for those who have them.
Patterns was another of the games which the Lab started developing (initially using a company called Free Range Software) under Rod Humble's tenure. Despite never reaching a formal release status, the game had undergone continuous development right through until earlier this year (I covered a lot of the updates and additions to the game through this blog), with the last update introduing a new UI. It also established a quite loyal following of users both through Steam and, later Desura.
In its last major update (May 2014) Patterns gained a revised UI
As a game, Patterns was hard to judge; the sandbox capabilities were interesting, and these came to be a focus, with more and better tools being added, together with the likes of materials capabilities and so on. Over time, creatures were also introduced, and a multi-player capability was added which allowed up for four players to work together (or compete). However, outside of the sandbox element and creating new worlds, and the competitive "you build it up, I'll knock it down" aspect, it was actually hard to see where Patterns would potentially gain a large enough following to make it viable.
The most interesting point of note with the announcement, however, is that the Lab appear to have taken on-board the Versu situation, and rather than simply closing the door, have indicated they'd be willing to hear from third parties who might be interested in taking Patterns on – albeit with the caveat that the company is still evaluating the technology used in Patterns at this time.
Regular readers here will recall that while the Lab initially closed the door on Versu and indicated that they weren't interested in seeing its development move elsewhere, they did eventually reach an agreement with Emily Short, Richard Evans and Graham Nelsen which allowed them to take Versu forward under its own banner.
That further changes to the Lab's product portfolio may be forthcoming was perhaps hinted at in the Designing Worlds interview. In discussing his thoughts on whether or not the Lab was what he was expecting, Ebbe Altberg commented (around the 3-4 minute mark), "some of the other products in Linden Lab's portfolio were maybe a little bit surprising to me, but we're getting that cleaned-up" [emphasis mine]. Hearing him use the present tense – given that Versu dio and Creatorverse went at the start of 2014 – seemed to suggest to me that one or more of the Lab's other products might be under the microscope as far as continued support might be concerned.
Whether or not Free Range Software have retained any involvement in Patterns, and if so, whether they (or indeed anyone else) would be willing to take it on, is unknown. For the moment, however, it would seem that the little Dorito Man is heading off into the sunset.
Will Dorito Man head into the sunset, or will he yet live on somewhere else?

This is a major surprise —- NOT!
Development has been sporadic at best since shortly after the initial release. My feeling was that it was a make-busy project for developers between assignments.
The last we heard from the developers was back in May with a teaser video at http://www.patternsguru.com/
There were steady updates throughout – averaging about once a quarter, as tracked through these pages (for the most part). The update referred to in the teaser video you've linked to was actually released – there's a link to my review of it in the article above.
There was a dedicated team working on Patterns. Again they did semi-regular livestreams with players, with updates and inside looks. admittedly, there were only three of them … but they were there. The slow-down after May was likely due to management mulling over the game's future.
This should be a hint or a warning sign for Linden Lab that a new world with spiffy new building tools is not a guarantee for success. Linden Lab might just want to dump it because of fear running into patent claims from Microsoft in the future. Rod Humble asked for permission to the creator of Minecraft to develop this clone product. While Notch didn't mind Microsoft would.

On 30 April 2010 I started a six month period of travelling in the footsteps of Jaroslav Hašek, from Školská ulice 16 in Prague where he was born in 1883 to Lipnice nad Sázavou where he died nearly 40 years later.
Please note that there is no activity on this page any more as the trip was completed on 29 October 2010. However, development on the web pages is continuing.
During these forty years Hašek lived an extraordinary life; it can by no means be described by drawing a straight line from Prague to Lipnice, nor does it fit on a simple web page. His travels took him as far as beyond Lake Baikal in Siberia and to numerous other places on the Eurasian continent.
Making travel plans accordingly is thus complicated, so the main emphasis is on the years 1915 to 1920. During this time his whereabouts are relatively well known, and he also documents parts of it himself in his satirical masterpiece The Good Soldier Švejk. From Prague to Western Ukraine I followed Švejk's route although it in some cases deviates from the author's own journey. From then on I based the itinerary on material by Pavel Gan, Alexandr Drbal and Radko Pytlík.
I visited 13 countries on the trip: Norway, Denmark, Germany, Czech Republic, Austria, Hungary, Slovakia, Poland, Ukraine, Russia, Kazakhstan, Estonia and Sweden. The distance travelled was an estimated 25,000 kilometres; using ferries, trains, buses, one bicycle, taxis and private cars. I also walked an estimated 500 km. During these six months I spent seven weeks in Russia, seven in the Czech Republic, four in the Ukraine and two weeks or less in the other countries. The longest single leg was from Irkutsk to Moscow on the way back, it lasted 75 hours. The trip was all in all very successful; I achieved all I set out to do (and even more), meat many fine people, kept healthy and suffered only minor misfortunes. Please see the detailed itinerary below for further information.
Birthday of Jaroslav Hašek. My last day at work before November 1st. Half day at work, picked up Kazakh visa, Baudelaire hour with Gro and Marianne at "Venterommet Pub". Leaving 17:00 with DFDS ferry for København.

Doing the first six chapters on Švejk, visiting all key points.
Arrival of Dr Hans-Peter Laqueur. Visit to Staré město.
Overnight trip to Lipnice. Tasting the new excellent Haškův ležák, brewed specially for "Česká koruna". Met Michal Giacintov and Jaroslav Koudrna, both in k.u.k uniforms. Hungarian party headed by László Polgár arrived.
Back to Prague in miserable weather. Bookfair "Svět knihy" in Holešovice. Launch of new edition of Karel Vaněk's Švejk illustrated by Petr Urban, event co-hosted by Dr Radko Pytlík. Pub-visit with Urban, Pytlík, Hašek, Polgár et al.
Starting at "U Kalicha", walking with Hans-Peter the route of Švejk from home to the Garrison prison at Hradčany. Beer festival with Lászlo, Zsofia and Eero Balk. Ceremonial visit to Hašek-statue in Žižkov and the last of many beers at "U vystrřeleného oka".

A less ambitious 17 km leg two, but still hard with a heavy backpack. Accommodation in the local brewery. Can hardly move my feet and aching in unmentionable places. Walked through Květov, a village of Švejk note. Decided to abandon the plan of carrying the backpack all the way. Will move to Písek and use it as a base and do further legs by taking the bus to the starting point early in the morning. Reason: the thing is heavy, the electronics doesn't like humidity and accommodation in the villages is far and few between.
Accommodation for seven nights at U Kloudů in Písek. Good day and new findings at "Státní okresní archiv".
Office work in the morning, walking in the afternoon. Wet and miserable.
Setting off 6:30. Fog in the morning but the weather improved. Excellent few hours at Radomyšl where I was able to locate Dolejší ulice, "Floránek" and the place where the farmer Melichárek lived (he was a real person who Hašek allegedly knew personally).
Taking the train to Radomyšl and walking to Štěkeň, and cutting the visit to the Putím hay-stack short. Severe pains in private parts led me to Ražice to take the train home somewhat prematurely.
Using Skočice as the symbolic location of the Schwarzenberg sheep-shed. It was probably located in the forest above the village (according to Dr Pytlík). It was wet, so I skipped the trip up the hillside.
The final leg of the anabase. Visit to Putim, and got facts about the village confirmed. First dry day since Tábor, but very windy and cold.
Awful weather. Went back to Tábor to pick up my books.

With summer coming up, there's no greater natural pleasure than having some freshly ripened fruit to snack on. But like so many things, timing is crucial to getting fruit at its optimum flavour, colour and texture.
At Co-op, many of our growers are involved with breeding fruit varieties to improve flavour, appearance and shelf life to ensure you get the best fruit available. Check out this British fruit buyer's guide so you can select the sweetest treats at the right time of year from your local store.
Rhubarb is available from mid January and, when it is 'forced' (or grown indoors), this gives the light pink colour. However, outdoor rhubarb starts in about March, but it does depend on the season.
Raspberries come into season in June until November. Similar to strawberries, the first fruit is often the best for eating. Recent work on varieties is changing the profile and appearance of the crop, giving a more consistent quality throughout the season.
Blueberries are in their prime in July/August and blackberries are perfect from June till November. Again, lots of new super-sweet varieties are available, including Karaka Black, Ouichita and Arapaho.
Rhubarb forced crop is light pink, but the outdoor crop is a green/dark pink colour. Forced crop is generally sweeter, but is only available for a limited time. The best prices on rhubarb are during spring and summer.
Cherries should have fresh green stems and glossy fruit. Being 'homegrown', UK cherries can be left on the tree longer, and those extra few hours or days of sunshine build the sweetness inside.
Plums in the UK may look different to most of the imported varieties and are more oval in shape, with a green colour to the skin. Do not let that deceive you, though – this fruit is full of sweetness and picked to perfection.
Look out for Berries in promotional packs, as they generally offer excellent value when on offer.
Always put fruit in the fridge as soon as you can, but not below zero degrees. And wash it just before you eat it, as washed soft fruit doesn't keep as well.
Cherries can be kept at really cold temperatures, down to 2oC. Keep them in the fridge so the fruit is firm and the stems are greener longer.
Plums can also be refrigerated but, for the best taste, leave a few in your fruit bowl to ripen.


The Kuku at the Park Plaza Hotel is available to book exclusively for private events and is ideal for birthday parties and wedding evening receptions. With its own private entrance, The Kuku is decorated in a Moroccan theme with a modern twist. It features hanging Moroccan lanterns alongside decorative wall lights. The stunning copper bar, candle-lit copper tables and satin seating give the Kuku its own quirky flair. Request a proposal now to experience one of the most unique city centre venues, ideal for birthday parties, wedding receptions, engagement parties, award ceremonies, fundraising and networking events.

Clean air everywhere
About air purifiers
Whether in the bustling heart of Manhattan or on a tranquil Alpine slope, these hotels focus on sustainability and the environment.
1. Treehotel Sweden
Don't just imagine drifting off to sleep high above the ground: that experience can be had in countless hotels around the world. Instead, imagine resting amidst sun-flecked branches, with birdsong all around. This, of course, is a tree house: the pinnacle of relaxing in the fresh air. A daydream, to be sure, but in some places it can actually come true.
In a pine forest next to a river in Sweden's northernmost landscape Norrbotten, you can choose from seven different "tree hotels" to check into. Each is equipped for comfortable living and designed by a different architect. Just take The Mirrorcube, whose walls are made from reflective mirror materials – talk about melting into the greenery! The Bird's Nest also does this in its own way, with its "wall" of sprawling branches.
The Treehotel, which is the name of this resort, is part of Britta's Guesthouse. Here, wild game and other local ingredients are often on the menu as an extra ecological bonus.
Where: Treehotel is part of Britta's Guesthouse, situated in the village of Harads, between Luleå and Jokkmokk in north Sweden.
Eco profile: Treehotel has been built so that the living trees are not damaged where the huts are attached. All seven rooms are ecologically conscious in terms of sanitation and building materials.
Website: treehotel.se
2. Crosby Street Hotel USA
A taste of the country in the middle of New York, Crosby Street Hotel has a lush vegetable garden on its roof. It was the first hotel in town to receive gold certification for its environmental performance.
Where: On Crosby Street in the neighborhood of SoHo, New York.
Eco profile: The first hotel in the city to be awarded the LEED Gold Certification from the US Green Building Council. The rooftop garden supplies the hotel restaurant with tomatoes and other products, and also houses its own small henhouse.
Website: firmdalehotels.com
3. Whitepod Switzerland
Whitepod's rooms resemble modern hermit's huts, spread across a steep hillside with breath-taking views of the Swiss Alps. Whitepod offers an original resort for the eco-conscious mountain tourist.
Where: In the village of Les Cerniers in Switzerland. Nearest airport: Geneva.
Eco profile: The huts' energy consumption for heating and cooling is 30 percent less than that of traditional buildings. The design saves building materials. Limited motor transport.
Website: whitepod.com
4. Fogo Island Inn Canada
Resting on stilts on the weather-beaten rocks of the Canadian east coast, a few steps from the angry North Atlantic, Fogo Island Inn has made a virtue of isolation.
Where: On Fogo Island, the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador.
Eco profile: The inn is run along with thorough ecological principles, from the prioritization of local suppliers, to the recycling of rainwater. Design: All 29 rooms offer "floor-to-ceiling views of the sea and sky". The hotel's architect, Todd Saunders, is local but has offices in Norway.
Website: fogoislandinn.ca
5. Soneva Kiri Thailand
By the beach and at the edge of the rainforest on the vast but sparsely populated island of Koh Kood, Soneva Kiri awaits. It is a luxurious resort for the eco-conscious tourist looking to unwind according to the resort's motto: "No news, no shoes." Where: On the Thai island of Koh Kood. Eco profile: Soneva Kiri uses an advanced, organic wastewater treatment method. The resort has its own biologist.

HomeMenlo ParkState approves city's ban on natural gas in new homes — other cities' bans to face state scrutiny
State approves city's ban on natural gas in new homes — other cities' bans to face state scrutiny
BY ELAINE GOODMAN
Daily Post Correspondent
Menlo Park's ban of natural gas in new homes for heating, hot water and clothes dryers has received the green light from a state commission.
The approval from the California Energy Commission was needed because Menlo Park's natural gas ban will go beyond what's in statewide Building Energy Efficiency Standards that take effect on Jan. 1. The CEC voted Wednesday to approve the natural gas restrictions in Menlo Park.
In addition, the CEC approved natural gas restrictions in the cities of San Mateo, San Jose and Santa Monica, as well as in Marin County. In those jurisdictions, new buildings that include natural gas will be required to be more energy efficient than all-electric buildings.
More cities, including Palo Alto, are expected to go to the state commission in coming months for approval of natural gas restrictions.
The Energy Commission isn't pushing the cities to adopt natural gas restrictions, CEC spokeswoman Amber Beck said.
But energy-efficiency programs in individual cities can help test whether the market is ready for such steps, which could eventually be adopted on a statewide level, according to the CEC.
"At the state level, we should partner with, learn from, and support local jurisdictions who develop innovative solutions to improve the energy performance of their communities," CEC member Andrew McAllister said in a news release. The commission's five members are appointed by the governor, confirmed by the state Senate, and make about $155,000 a year.
Local standards require state approval
The statewide Building Energy Efficiency Standards are updated every three years, Beck said. Each time, cities are allowed to set their own energy efficiency standards for buildings, which must be submitted to CEC for approval. The local government must show the commission that its proposal will save energy compared to the state standards and be cost effective.
The CEC on Wednesday approved standards from six local jurisdictions — the first local standards approved as alternatives to the new, 2019 statewide standards. Five of the six included restrictions on natural gas.
Some cities have set aggressive goals for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, Beck said, and moving from natural gas to electricity may be viewed as one way to reach those goals.
"At this time, the easiest pathway appears to electrification," she said.
When the state updated its standards in 2016, about two dozen jurisdictions sought approval for their own standards, according to Beck, who said the number could be higher this time around.
The Palo Alto City Council voted last month to ban the installation of natural gas appliances in new homes starting in April and in new office buildings by the end of 2020. After an ordinance banning natural gas receives final approval at the city level, it will be sent to the CEC for approval.
The Los Altos City Council also voted in favor of natural gas restrictions last month. And the Mountain View City Council has approved a ban on natural gas use in new homes starting next year.
In Menlo Park, electric heating, hot water and clothes dryers will be required in new homes starting Jan. 1. Gas cooking and fireplaces will be allowed, but homes must be prewired for electric if gas appliances are installed.
Menlo Park will require commercial and high-rise residential buildings to be all-electric. But exceptions are possible. For example, commercial kitchens may apply to use gas cooking appliances.
Cost is an issue
Critics of the gas bans say natural gas is a low-cost source of energy that low- and middle-income families rely on. Some say natural gas appliances are especially needed in light of PG&E's recent power shutoffs.
Rebecca Lucky, Menlo Park's sustainability manager, said when it comes to day-to-day household operations, "it's difficult to determine" whether natural gas or electric is cheaper due to fluctuating trends.
But building a house without natural gas piping saves about $7,000, Lucky said, which can be used toward solar energy and energy storage systems. Electric appliances are also becoming more energy efficient, she said.
"Over the life of the building, there's expected savings," Lucky said.
On the issue of power outages, Lucky noted that many newer natural gas appliances need electricity to start up. Having energy storage systems in a home would help during an electrical outage, she said.

You folks are insane. Cheap clean burning natural gas is such an easy choice. And where do you think your electricity comes from? Half of California's generating assets are natural gas generated. You are all so stupid it is comical.

Jokha Alharthi is the first Omani woman to have a novel translated into English, and Celestial Bodies is the first book translated from the Arabic to win the Man Booker International Prize. Alharthi is the author of two previous collections of short fiction, a children's book, and three novels in Arabic.

Warm Bodies the film is a surprisingly fun, cute and almost annoyingly optimistic take on how the world continues to turn after the zombie apocalypse.
Throughout Celestial Bodies there are a smattering of references to zār exorcisms, but little detail is given on what these ceremonies actually are.
What becomes apparent, though, is that many al-Awafi villagers look forward to these gatherings. For one character in the book, these exorcisms become a source of entertainment which she anticipates more eagerly than a village wedding:.
