Yesterday I was on a Southwest flight flying back home and I sat next to this woman who is loosing her eye sight. She mentioned that she could not see my face just an outline of my face. She said that she was once very independent and a lab technician. She had visited Italy and lived in places like Anchorage Alaska and for the last 42 years in Arizona. But now that she is going blind, she needs some help and is moving to Seattle to live next to one of her sons.
Her house sold in just a week so the last month has been very hectic selling and giving away her possessions and you can just see that she was exhausted physically and emotionally. Her flight from Arizona to Seattle included a stop in Los Angeles and Sacramento each time changing planes. Not being able to see, she had to rely on the kindness of strangers to get her from one plane to another. A Southwest employee, who happened to be a man, was the one who took her to her flight in the Los Angeles airport. As soon as we got in the air, she had to use the restroom. She said there was no one to take her in Los Angeles, but I think since he was a man, she might have been embarrassed to tell him she needed to go. I helped her to the restroom and carried her bags off the plane to the next stranger who would help her get to her next flight.
I thought that this woman has to have faith in the kindness of strangers and that all will work out. If she had any anxiety, she did not show it. Or she was just so exhausted and had nothing left to give that she just gave in to what will be will be. Either way, she counted on the help of strangers. What would happen if we all just let go and not think of "the how" we will get there and just have faith that we will get to where we need to go?
This short encounter was a big teaching moment with several lessons. First, to be grateful for what you have now because you may not have it in the future (like your eye sight or independence). Secondly, to trust that everything will work, even if we don't know "the how". And finally, to let others help you. When we let others help, we are giving them a gift to spread love. There are gifts in both the giving and receiving, so don't just be a giver and let the others help you in your journey of life.
Being grateful for the kindness of strangers reminds me of when I was 9 months pregnant and my shoe became untied. I stranger bent down and tied my shoe for which I was very grateful. Engage in life and let others help. When we positively engage, we are spreading God's love and that love increases out to the whole universe.
I am grateful to my fellow passenger for all these lessons that she taught me. There are no coincidences (more on this in my next post) that I sat next to her on the plane. So thank you, kind lady, for sharing your story with me! I appreciate your honesty in sharing with me, a stranger, your life. Good luck in your new home in Seattle and may your 4-year-old grandson let Nona rest today!


This example builds on a previous one in which an MIT Kerberos V master KDC and administration server was installed on a host, called kdc1.example.com, running Debian 5.0 (lenny). If followed properly, this step-by-step process should produce a new slave KDC. The system relies heavily on timestamps, so reasonably accurate time synchronization among all participating hosts is essential.
Indeed, the same KDC database master key password that was used for kdc1 − adamanteus − is used here as well. This is to avoid a bug. It should be possible to perform the next two commands without it, but that results in an error. With Debian 6.0 (squeeze) this is no longer be necessary.
~# nmap -sT -sU kdc2.example.com.
See this section for a more detailed explanation of this file. The line "kdc = kdc2.example.com should then also be added to this configuration file on all the other hosts that are part of the same realm, or else they will not be able to make use of this server.

NYUAD Celebrates Diversity and Unity of African Continent
The University community gathers together to celebrate African Night, hosted by the NYUAD Office of Intercultural Affairs.
End-of-semester fatigue was nowhere to be seen as NYU Abu Dhabi students, staff, and faculty converged on the University's Downtown Campus to celebrate the diversity and unity of the African continent late last week.
To kick things off, a football tournament was held in the garden in the late afternoon before students settled down to watch performances on the stage. There was also a smorgasbord of dishes offering delicious tidbits from all over the continent, art displays, and of course the centerpiece, a melange of contemporary and more traditional dances. The dances were interspersed with a quiz testing the audience's general knowledge of Africa, a musical piece, as well as a glitzy fashion show. Students charged down the "runway," parading fashions from all over Africa. Given the array of colorful clothing, however, it is fair to say the whole night was a fashion show of sorts.
Africa Night was held as part of the NYUAD Cultural Ambassadors' events series, which has packed the semester with Diwali celebrations, National Day celebrations, and now a celebration of Africa. Each African nation was represented in some small way — from the Thieboudienne of Senegal to the delectably sour injera bread from Ethiopia.
The dances were so natural and so full of joy, which is what Africa is all about.
Abdoulaye Ndiaye, NYUAD Class of 2016
Freshman Abdoulaye Ndiaye relished in the opportunity to recreate customs from his home country of Senegal. "The Africa Night brought back so many memories thanks to the little details, for example, sitting on mats," he said. "I really felt at home."
Ndiaye, however, maintained that the dancing was his favorite part. "The dances were so natural and so full of joy, which is what Africa is all about," he explained. This year's celebration followed the success of last year's event and seems to have secured Africa Night's spot on the University calendar for some years to come.

Commentary: Deutsche Bank's bankers were alienated from their jobs
Disloyalty is so embedded at investment banks that the habit is hard to break for both sides, says the Financial Times' John Gapper.

By John Gapper
10 Jul 2019 01:06PM (Updated: 10 Jul 2019 01:10PM )
LONDON: It is the mark of a strange employer to pay some of its employees millions each year but, when it decides to let them go, instruct them to leave the building rapidly, clutching their belongings.
Since the failure of Lehman Brothers in 2008, the scene we witnessed on Monday (Jul 8) at Deutsche Bank in London, New York and Hong Kong has become familiar.
It was regarded internally as evidence of rare humanity that Deutsche's departing equity traders and sales people were permitted to remain in its London headquarters for three hours before being ejected.
THE AXE FALLS ABRUPTLY
Some displayed signs of distress but many of them adjourned to a nearby pub, having anticipated that their days at the bank were numbered.
That is what you come to expect if you work on the trading floor of any global investment bank — the last ticket you sign is the one with your pay-off.
There is some logic to the way that the axe falls so abruptly at investment banks, with security cards being invalidated and access to systems shut off in case a resentful employee executes a rogue trade in revenge.
But it is also a symptom of malaise — the alienation of bank from banker, as if the job is just another transaction.
MONEY AS MOTIVATOR
"Discipline" was the word Christian Sewing, chief executive, used to explain why he was ending its ambition, reaching back 20 years to its purchase of Bankers Trust in 1999, to rival Goldman Sachs and others.
The individual of whom he spoke most warmly was Bernd Leukert, a former SAP executive who will be in charge of bringing more automation to the bank.
It is understandable that Mr Sewing tired of employing people who did not produce enough to justify their bonuses — Deutsche's costs were higher than its income in the final quarter of 2018 and he plans to shed 18,000 jobs by 2022. Under the traders who led its expansion, what he calls "spectacular ambition" was substituted for strategy.
READ: Despite layoffs, Deutsche Bank strategy on track at last, a commentary
But it is difficult to see how any business can achieve long-term success when there is evidently so little bond between it and its employees. Deutsche is not alone in this absence — many investment banks rely almost entirely on money as their motivator, and have very fragile cultures.
Analysts said it was high time for Deutsche Bank to stop its decades-long drive to emulate the investment titans of Wall Street. (AFP/Boris Roessler)
TREATED POORLY
Most professionals, particularly in sectors such as medicine or education, identify with their jobs and gain purpose from them.
Citing Karl Marx's notion of labour alienation, one study last year concluded that "when there is no purpose, work becomes absurd, alienating or even demeaning."
Two academics who studied investment bankers in London who had survived the industry's upheavals to become successful and highly paid were surprised by their degree of cynicism and noted the absence of "meaningfulness, emotions and personal investment in work values".
They encountered "identity minimalism" among investment bankers, who focused solely on making money with an "instrumental, almost mercenary attitude to self and work". The bankers did not expect any loyalty from above and took it for granted that they would be dismissed one day.
READ: Dismissed Deutsche Bank staff head out as overhaul bites
Investment bankers are human, despite the popular image, but they tend to cultivate loyal relationships with the colleagues around them, or with the asset managers and clients with whom they work, rather than with their employers.
The latter reward them for the money they bring in, and they return that lack of feeling.
"They do very well, they get paid an awful lot, they are considered indispensable, but in bad markets they don't do very well, and frankly then they get treated quite poorly," concluded one senior executive, referring to the "beta" — correlation with market performance — of traders' jobs.
NOT SUFFICIENTLY DEVOTED?
This is an apt description of what happened at Deutsche, and the fatalism with which it was greeted by those fired. After commiserating with colleagues over a drink, some would have called headhunters, citing their revenue-earning potential for another bank.
"We lost our compass in the last two decades," Mr Sewing told investors after announcing the restructuring; he also wrote to staff about wanting to create a new corporate culture that "always puts the bank and its clients first, before the interests of the individual."
The implication for Deutsche's departing equities traders was obvious.
READ: 'What happens tomorrow, who knows': Deutsche Bank employees brace for more bad news
READ: Banks still have lessons to learn about overworked staff, a commentary
But suggesting to people whom you have just dismissed that they were insufficiently devoted is irrational.
Some may have treated Deutsche as no more than the place that paid their bonuses for a while. They turned out to be correct: It would have been foolish to place too much faith in it.

EMBEDDED DISLOYALTY
Disloyalty is so embedded at investment banks that the habit is hard to break for both sides.
Traders demand big bonuses and threaten to leave for higher offers because there is no security; banks expand in profitable activities or growth regions such as China while firing laggards.
Mr Sewing is not the first to conclude investment banking is too unstable and the risks too great. Perhaps one day, another aspirant will crack the code and build a bank that works differently.
Until then, bankers will carry on being highly paid and disposable.

Gartner Says Worldwide Semiconductor Sales Expected to Reach $348 Billion in 2015, a 2.2 Percent Increase From 2014
Softness in Key Electronic Equipment Segments, Including PCs and Smartphones, Slowing Growth
STAMFORD, Conn., July 8, 2015 -- Worldwide semiconductor revenue is forecast to reach $348 billion in 2015, a 2.2 percent increase from 2014, but down from the previous quarter's forecast of 4.0 percent growth, according to Gartner, Inc.
"The outlook for the major applications that drive the semiconductor market, including PCs, smartphones, and tablets, have all been revised downward. This, combined with the impact of the strong dollar on demand in key markets, has resulted in a lower semiconductor forecast for 2015," said Jon Erensen, research director at Gartner. "The typical second-quarter bounce did not materialize this year, and as a result, the semiconductor industry is more back-end loaded and dependent on a strong third-quarter rebound, driven by Windows 10 and the ramp-up to the holiday season."
From an application point of view, smartphones and solid-state drives (SSDs) will continue to drive semiconductor market growth, while the traditional PC segment will experience the greatest decline, with production units down 8.7 percent in 2015, slightly weaker than the previous quarter's forecast. "Inventory in the PC market remains high despite vendors looking to clear the supply chain in anticipation of Windows 10 and Intel's Skylake products. Any issues with the launches of Windows 10 or Skylake in the third quarter of 2015, which are expected to reinvigorate PC sales, could lead to further decline," said Mr. Erensen.
In the smartphone market, Apple's iPhone is the bright spot for the market with strong unit growth and increasing average selling prices (ASPs), driven by the strong performance of the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. However, lackluster performance in high-end Android smartphones and general softness in the smartphone market in China will continue to impact growth.
Although the wearables market, including smartwatches, head-mounted displays (HMDs), smart glasses and Bluetooth headsets, is a growing industry, revenue for wearables semiconductors — processing, sensing and communications chips — will represent only 1 percent of total semiconductor revenue by 2019. Smartwatches are the top semiconductor growth in the near term.
From a device point of view, DRAM continues to be one of the primary growth drivers of the overall industry. DRAM revenue is expected to increase 3.8 percent in 2015, following a 32 percent increase in 2014. However, Gartner expects an oversupply (or "underdemand") to develop in 2016 as limited new capacity comes online and technology migration continues. DRAM industry revenue is expected to decline 17.4 percent in 2016 and 7 percent in 2017.
"The typical second-quarter bounce did not materialize this year, and as a result, the semiconductor industry is more back-end loaded and dependent on a strong third-quarter rebound, driven by Windows 10 and the ramp-up to the holiday season," said Mr. Erensen.
Additional analysis on the outlook for the semiconductor market can be found in the Gartner Webinar "2Q15 Semiconductor Forecast Update".

New record price for Korean painting
by Philip Gowman posted 29 May 2007 22 Jun 2020 updated 22 Jun 2020
in Arts. 2 minute read
Every few months there's another news item in the Korean press about a new domestic record price paid at auction for a Korean painting. And each time, the artist is Park Soo-keun (Bak Su-geun, 박수근) (1914-1965).
The most recent record was set this month (22 May), at W4.52bn:
Park Soo-keun: A Wash Place (Oil on canvas, 37 x 72 cm)
The previous record was for Park Soo-keun's "Woman at a Marketplace" (24.9 x 62.4 cm) which sold for W2.5 billion at K Auction in March:
Park's paintings are also in demand internationally. His "Leisure Time" fetched $1.128 million at Christie's in New York on 24 March 2003, according to the International Herald Tribune, just exceeded a year later by his "Seated Woman and Jar" which fetched $1,239,500.
With prices rising, it's natural that the unscrupulous try to make a quick buck. Park Soo-keun was one of the artists whose work was forged by a multi-million forgery ring busted earlier this year.

Q: join() returns a list instead of a string I am doing the codewars 'Replace With Alphabet Position' fundamental training challenge. I have pretty much got the desired result, but now the problem is that my return statement is returning the result in a list ([]) rather than the string itself.
I found this tutorial that said to use the join method (https://www.programiz.com/python-programming/methods/string/join), but when I try that.. it is not giving me just the joined values.
These are the instructions:

Welcome.
In this kata you are required to, given a string, replace every letter
  with its position in the alphabet.
If anything in the text isn't a letter, ignore it and don't return it.
"a" = 1, "b" = 2, etc.
Example
alphabet_position("The sunset sets at twelve o' clock.")
Should return "20 8 5 19 21 14 19 5 20 19 5 20 19 1 20 20 23 5 12 22 5
  15 3 12 15 3 11" (as a string)

Here's my code:
def alphabet_position(text):
    text = text.lower()
    print(text)
    alphabet = {
        'a':1,
        'b':2,
        'c':3,
        'd':4,
        'e':5,
        'f':6,
        'g':7,
        'h':8,
        'i':9,
        'j':10,
        'k':11,
        'l':12,
        'm':13,
        'n':14,
        'o':15,
        'p':16,
        'q':17,
        'r':18,
        's':19,
        't':20,
        'u':21,
        'v':22,
        'w':23,
        'x':24,
        'y':25,
        'z':26
    }

    new_string = []

    for char in text:
        if char.isalpha():
            new_string.append(alphabet.get(char))
    return ''.join(str(new_string))

Here is the output:

A: .join() expects a list of strings, but alphabet.get(char) returns an int so new_string is a list of ints. You need to move the call to str() into the previous line, like so:
for char in text:
    if char.isalpha():
        new_string.append(str(alphabet.get(char)))
return ''.join(new_string)

DEMON Pushed Fr. Malachi Martin To His Death?
A Catholic priest who inspired The Exorcist died from a fall after what he claims was a possessed child spoke to him, it has emerged. The new revelation comes from a CIA agent after it had been widely reported Malachi Martin from Ireland told a friend an invisible force pushed him to his death. Ahead of the release of a new documentary, his close friend Robert Marrow has lifted the lid on the moment he believes the priest was effectively killed - when a possessed four-year-old girl he was meant to be exorcising spoke to him in America. Daily Mail
P. O'Brien January 13, 2017 at 10:16 AM
1)Fr. Malachi Martin did not inspire the movie "The Exorcist."
2)If he had been already pushed to his death, how did he manage to tell his friend that invisible force had done him in?
3)Fr. Martin was not recognized as an exorcist in the Archdiocese of New York.

Water is brought to a boil, the oats are added and as the oats cook, a starch is released so the oats soften into a gelatin-like substance that becomes a thick, mushy and creamy textured. This breakfast dish which may also be called "oatmeal" is then topped with sugar, syrup or mollasses and milk poured into the cooked oats.
In other countries, there are different types of Porridge made from a variety of dried pulses, vegetables or grains, such as rice for a Porridge referred to as Congee in Asian countries or as Rice Pudding in Scandinavian countries. Other types of Porridge in various countries include British Frumenty made from wheat; Middle Eastern Haleem made from meat and vegetables; Hawaiian Poi made from taro; Russian Grechka or Grechnevaya Kasha made from Buckwheat Groats; Ugandan Matoke made from plantains; Mexican Polenta made from maize (cornmeal); and Tibetan Tsampa made from barley.

Data-Centers-NC-v4 LTc6: Bicycle facilities 1 point
Bicycle network
Design or locate the project such that a functional entry and/or bicycle storage is within a 200-yard (180-meter) walking distance or bicycling distance from a bicycle network that connects to at least one of the following:
at least 10 diverse uses (see Appendix 1);
a school or employment center, if the project total floor area is 50% or more residential; or
a bus rapid transit stop, light or heavy rail station, commuter rail station, or ferry terminal.
All destinations must be within a 3-mile (4800-meter) bicycling distance of the project boundary. Planned bicycle trails or lanes may be counted if they are fully funded by the date of the certificate of occupancy and are scheduled for completion within one year of that date.
Bicycle Storage and Shower Rooms
Case 1. commercial or institutional projects
Provide short-term bicycle storage for at least 2.5% of all peak visitors, but no fewer than four storage spaces per building. Provide long-term bicycle storage for at least 5% of all regular building occupants, but no fewer than four storage spaces per building in addition to the short-term bicycle storage spaces. Provide at least one on-site shower with changing facility for the first 100 regular building occupants and one additional shower for every 150 regular building occupants thereafter.
Case 2. residential projects
Provide short-term bicycle storage for at least 2.5% of all peak visitors but no fewer than four storage spaces per building. Provide long-term bicycle storage for at least 30% of all regular building occupants, but no less than one storage space per residential unit in addition to the short-term bicycle storage spaces.
Case 3. mixed-use projects
Meet the Case 1 and Case 2 storage requirements for the nonresidential and residential portions of the project, respectively.
Short-term bicycle storage must be within 100 feet (30 meters) walking distance of any main entrance. Long-term bicycle storage must be within 100 feet (30 meters) walking distance of any functional entry. Bicycle storage capacity may not be double-counted: storage that is fully allocated to the occupants of non-project facilities cannot also serve project occupants. Core & Shell projects should refer to Appendix 2, Default Occupancy Counts, for occupancy count requirements and guidance.
Europe ACP: Bike Path Width
If the requirements on the width of bike paths cannot be met due to the historic urban context of the project site, compensating measures to reduce street speeds and/or to enhance biking security on routes connecting to a qualifying bike network are acceptable:
A security lane for biking (marked dedicated bike lane, which can be shared by cars in narrow sections of the street when no bikes are present) or a physically dedicated bike lane less than 5 feet (1.5 meters) wide
Intersections spaced no more than 400 feet (122 meters) apart
Travel lane widths no greater than 10 feet (3 meters) and parallel parking lane widths no greater than 8 feet (2.4 meters)
Routes that meet the alternative requirements outlined above must be clearly identified by type within the required documentation. See all forum discussions about this credit »
What is length of stay is considered 'short-term' vs. 'long-term'?
If the building is listed in Appendix 2 Default occupancy codes with zero transients, does that mean we don't have to provide any short-term bike spaces?
Regarding the requirement to provide shower facilities on commercial and institutional projects, what counts as "on-site"?
Can double-stacked bike storage racks comply with this credit?
Add an International Tips section that reads:
"Bike Path Width
European projects located in historic urban centers may be exempted from bike path width requirements on routes where the requirements cannot be met due to space constraints. Additionally, the bicycle network definition is expanded to include additional criteria on these routes."
"Europe ACP: Bike Path Width
If the requirements on the width of bike paths cannot be met due to the historic ur-ban context of the project site, compensating measures to reduce street speeds and/or to enhance biking security on routes connecting to a qualifying bike network are acceptable:
• A security lane for biking (marked dedicated bike lane, which can be shared by cars in narrow sections of the street when no bikes are present) or a physically dedicated bike lane less than 5 feet (1.5 meters) wide.
• Intersections spaced no more than 400 feet (122 meters) apart
• Travel lane widths no greater than 10 feet (3 meters) and parallel parking lane widths no greater than 8 feet (2.4 meters)

Description Doctor Alexander Moore, a former Attucks student and dean of boys, became principal in 1957 following Russell Lane. This is a transcript of an interview that was conducted as part of the Crispus Attucks High School Social History Project. The purpose of the project was to document the recollections of former teachers, administrators, and students from Attucks. The project also aimed to uncover some of the challenges faced by those involved with the first years of the school.

You have a social media account for your business, you post frequently, have a lot of followers, and your posts always seem to get a lot of likes but barely any comments…why? When you post a status, you should ALWAYS engage with your followers. Whether it's using games, developing relationships, or inviting conversation, there are many ways that you can increase your social media feedback.
Using Games: People like to respond to questions, and they also like to be right. When you use trivia, it brings in more follows, likes, and traffic. It's a great way to build participation, accrue followers, and it can also be fun!
Develop Relationships: Social media is a place where people can have conversations with your brand, rather than just be marketed to. If you want to be successful, it can't always be about "The Sell". These types of posts are bonding opportunities through a show of friendliness, humor and imagery. For example, share a funny quote, interesting fact, or cool graphic that will make someone want to respond to it, rather than simply throwing your product at them.
Inviting Conversation: Posts that invite conversation have a clear and friendly purpose: "Talk to us." This is one of the most effective ways to open up your social media platforms for two-way communication, which is a great way to enhance your social media relationships. Create posts that ask your audience for their ideas, opinions, or advice. People LOVE giving their opinions.
Giveaways: Giveaways are a great way to boost feedback on any social media platform because people always like receiving a prize of recognition. For example, you could ask your followers to fill out an entry form, like your page, or comment with their favorite story about your brand to win a free product or subscription. Giving away free products is a fantastic way to get people on your side.
Research: Social media marketing is not about selling and posting random content. Brands need to engage with and learn everything there is to know about their targeted demographic. As a result, they'll build relationships, brand reputation, and a community following over time.

Q: Add SQL check keyword in django model I have a Django model with a list of choices:

Downloaded and now i install the patch, let`s see how will work on my old pc.
The game works great now finally can i finish the game THANKS MAD VULTURE GAMES.
Playing now, amazing, it's a titanic work.
I am glad that there are people in the world, they cured Forsaken Gods.
Saving and loading is very fast.
Forgive me for asking, it is possible a patch in the future, which would optimize Saving and loading in Gothic 3?
Just completed downloading the patch.
Gothic 3 Forsaken Gods Enhanced Edition - Patch version now available!
Finally it's done and the patch is ready to be downloaded as well.
Thanks, please update the first post.
Thanks team well done.. downloading shortly.
Can you define "completely revised combat system"?
It appears that the combat system of enemies has been revised.At least,the enemies in the arena can now unleash never-ending combos on you,just like zombies could in Gothic 3.
I've just been playing the enhanced edition (EE) and wow, there are no micro-lags!
The absence of the micro-lags is marvelous! In Gothic 3 the constant micro-lags were a bit irritating. I wish G3 could do without them.
I will put Two Worlds II aside for a while to play this!
Like I said, that shaders-getting stored-on hard disk needs to be implemented for G3 as well.
Hi everybody! Just a few questions. I bought Gothic 1-3 and Forsaken Gods from Steam sale. I´m bit off cause I really don´t know how Forsaken Gods differs from Gothic 3, could someone tell bit about that? And also does this newly released community patch for FG change things in Steam FG EE version, should I install this patch? Thanx in advance!
It uses the same engine as G3 (but with the latest patch I think it's more advanced in that area ) and other stuff. It's dubbed an addon, but it doesn't require G3 to be installed to play it. It's set 2 years, iirc, after the events of G3.
Also, the Steam version comes with the patch preinstalled, so you only have to download the patch if you have the disc version of Forsaken Gods.
This is my third day of downloading this patch, and presently I have only 44% downloaded because I am on a dial-up modem connected to the Internet.
Free Download Manager is being used to download the patch directly from Mad Vulture Games Direct, and occasionally my modem phone line is disconnected which results in lost time.
At this present slow data transfer rate I might have the entire huge patch file downloaded by next week on March 28, but things could go wrong with my dial-up connection and cause further delays.
The reason I am downloading this new patch is because the previous official patches did not fix the Forsaken Gods game when I played it.
For example, when I found a group of orcs guarding a temple ruin entrance, I was able to walk past the guards into the innermost chambers, and no orc interacted with me or noticed me at all. I should have been stopped by orcs.
That was when I knew the game was broken. When characters do not interact at important points in the story, then the game is broken and cannot be completed as intended.
The entire arrangement of having Indian programmers code a German Gothic game was a total blunder by JoWood.
This detail has been fixed. Which doesn't necessarily mean that all NPC behaviour was fixed in total, btw. Many of these issues had to be handled for each NPC separately. So it could still be that we oversaw some unpleasant situations.
What I am expecting in this final patch is the certainty that the major plot and quests can be completed without breaking down into incompleted actions and reactions of essential main characters.
Last year my progress playing the game did not advance far at all because I could not get the major characters to interact, and when I learned that the Indian programmers were not going to release another patch, I gave up on the game.
But now I have hope this game will perform adequately. I do not mind minor glitches, but when the linear flow breaks and the plot cannot advance, then the game is not entertaining, only frustrating.
Although many players were able to complete Forsaken Gods by using the previous patches, I could not do so, and I tried all released versions.
Although I bought two copies of the Forsaken Gods DVD, I will probably buy the enhanced version DVD because it has this huge patch included.
If my hard drive crashes and I lose the Forsaken Gods game, then I would not want to spend many hours day after day to download this patch again!
It would be easier and much quicker to install the Enhanced Edition disc.
Based upon my ISP problems, I expect my modem will become disconnected during the night and more time will be wasted until I can reconnect when I wake up the next day.
My download progress is still only 44% completed with an estimated 78 more hours until it is finished.
Yes, we fixed the plot lines.
There is no new DVD version of the game in sight. Only the Steam version, but that would be an even bigger download than the patch.
Please save the patch on USB stick, DVD or external hard drive, son you won't have to download it again.


Paul Rodriguez was nice enough to let us intrude on a day in his life last week. He was very open and had a lot of interesting things to say. I have a ton of footage left over from the day and might have to do something rad with it in the future. We also filmed a trick tip for an upcoming project that will not disappoint and P Rod blew me away. He did about 25 nollie crooked grinds in a row and literally never missed one. His consistency and impeccable style really leave him in a class of his own. Behind the scenes photos here.
Filmed and edited by me me me me me.


Google announced on September 12th that Inbox by Gmail would be shut down in March 2019 and while many speculated it was just another example of generally anti-user decision making, it can probably be attributed to ads.
By 2015, Gmail had over 1 Billion monthly active users1, which is a massive audience to reach with ads. Additionally, marketers love email, email users are easily addressable, easily trackable, already used to receiving promotions, already spending lots of time in email clients, already spending lots of mobile time, difficult to ad block, can be contained in the in-app browser and more.
There are no publicly available metrics for Gmail ads or Inbox by Gmail adoption, but in many cases Gmail is the top placement for marketers running Google Ads display network campaigns.
For Google to sell Gmail ads, they need to engineer and maintain a lot of code including the ad units themselves, the ad slot code in the clients, the UI to manage the ads, the backend campaign mechanics and inclusion in the AdWords API, plus provide support and marketing.
After Gmail Ads were launched in September 2015, of the course of years, they have steadily announced feature enhancements, including the release of Gmail Dynamic Retargeting Ads last November.
Gmail ads launched as Gmail Sponsored Promotions, which had to be managed outside of AdWords and also required a change to Gmail's email scanning policy.
Years later the benefits of merging into mainline Google Ads is clear.
Google killed Inbox by Gmail because of ads, or the lack thereof. RIP.

Doctors Reckon With High Rate Of Suicide In Their Ranks
Analysis | By Kaiser Health News
An estimated 300 to 400 doctors kill themselves each year, and the suicide rate is more than double that of the general population.
This article first appeared August 03, 2018 on Kaiser Health News.
By Blake Farmer, Nashville Public Radio
Alarms go off so frequently in emergency rooms, doctors barely notice. And then a colleague is wheeled in on a gurney, clinging to life, and that alarm becomes a deafening wake-up call.
"It's devastating," said Dr. Kip Wenger, recalling a 33-year-old physician and friend who died by suicide in 2015. "This is a young, healthy person who has everything in the world ahead of them."
The medical profession is built on the myth that its workers are all highly conditioned athletes — clocking long hours while somehow staying immune to fatigue and the emotional toll of their jobs.
But there's a dark side to the profession that has been largely veiled — even from doctors themselves: They are far more likely than the general population to take their own lives.
Wenger said his colleague was a confident doctor who worked with him in emergency rooms all over Knoxville, Tenn., and died in one of those same ERs. Wenger is regional medical director for TeamHealth, one of the country's largest emergency room staffing companies, based in Knoxville.
One of the unavoidable dangers of being a doctor is knowing exactly how to kill yourself and having easy access to the tools to do it. There are stories of anesthesiologists found in a hospital, hooked up to an IV. Wenger said his colleague used numbing agents in order to die more painlessly.
"She wrapped herself in a blanket, and she got a Bible," Wenger said. "She wrote a note on the door to her best friend. 'If you come here, don't come in the door. Call Kip or call Peter and they'll know what to do.' And that's how she checked out."
This young doctor had confided in a few co-workers about recent relationship struggles, but nothing that affected her work. And then she became part of the grim statistics.
"She was very strong-willed, strong-minded, an independent, young female physician," said emergency doctor Betsy Hull, a close friend. "I don't think any of us had any idea that she was struggling as much personally as she was for those several months."
Addressing An Uncomfortable Reality
An estimated 300 to 400 doctors kill themselves each year, and the suicide rate is more than double that of the general population, according to a review of 10 years of literature on the subject presented at the American Psychiatry Association annual meeting in May.
For TeamHealth, the young woman's death in 2015 sparked some deep soul-searching.
"A few of these things happened that were just so sobering," said TeamHealth co-founder Dr. Lynn Massingale. "People don't stab themselves to death. Young people don't stab themselves to death."
It's been an uncomfortable topic to address. A 2018 study from Mayo Clinic finds disenchanted doctors are more likely to make mistakes.
But TeamHealth held listening sessions and realized that burnout was rampant. To start, they began encouraging doctors to work less. Massingale said the company average is now close to 40 hours a week — though there's no avoiding nights and weekends in the ER.
The company also started a new protocol for one of the most stressful times in a physician's career: when doctors are sued. The company then pairs them with someone who has been there.
"We can't change the facts. We're not coaching you to change your memory," Massingale said. "But we can help you deal with the stress of that."
And TeamHealth is trying to reduce some bureaucratic headaches. A significant portion of the required corporate training has been deemed optional. And the company began spending millions of dollars a year to hire scribes — staff members who follow around ER physicians and enter information into sometimes finicky electronic health records.
Technology has become a real source of stress in a career that comes with lots to worry about, even beyond dealing with patients.
Dr. Jeffrey Zurosky, who is an ER director at Parkwest Medical Center in Knoxville, said he's concerned for his youngest doctors who start out with a mountain of med school debt, eager to pick up as many shifts as possible.
"I tell them: Be balanced. Don't overwork yourself. Spend time with your family. Stay married, if you can," Zurosky said.
Yet to some in the medical community, the problem is far more fundamental than "burnout." Pam Wible doesn't even like the term, since it puts the burden on physicians, as if they just have to find a way to cope. The family practitioner from Eugene, Ore., sees it all starting in medical schools. Entrenched ideals, like muscling through long hours on little sleep, are hard to break. Wible calls it abuse.
"These people who have been previously abused are now the teachers," she said. "They're teaching the next generation of doctors."
Too Close To Call For Help
And when physicians do want help, the industry makes it especially difficult. Wible said they can't go see a psychiatrist without jeopardizing their medical license.
"I know a lot of them," Wible said. "They're having to sneak out of town, pay cash and use a fake name to do it. Why are we putting these people in such a situation?"
Wible has collected more than 900 stories of doctor suicides and set up an anonymous help line. She has inspired more physicians to share their experiences, such as an emergency doctor licensed in Ohio.
"You don't focus on the 99 you save," that ER doctor said. "You end up focusing on the one that you lose."
The one he lost was 19 years old and came in with the flu, but tests didn't show anything unusual. He sent her home. She returned in cardiac arrest. When he found out she died, he went to a dark place — despite no history of depression.
"Like all doctors, you put that Superman cape on and you think you can get through it," he said.
The family filed a complaint. And being told he might lose his job pushed him over the edge. He swallowed a lethal overdose. But the police found him, and got him to a hospital where he had to be revived.
This ER doc had treated untold numbers of suicidal patients but never saw himself in their place.
"I didn't know I was at higher risk of suicide than the average person," he said.
Kaiser Health News and NPR are not naming this doctor because his story could affect his future career. But he said he wishes he could speak more freely, thinking it might encourage physicians to seek help sooner than he did.
Kaiser Health News is a national health policy news service that is part of the nonpartisan Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation.

Q: Would like a dialog window to open once IconFont is clicked I am working with React and am very new to it. I have a page that has a bunch of FontIcons. I would like the user to click on an icon and have a dialog pop up. I found information on the dialog piece, http://www.material-ui.com/#/components/dialog. I have not found anything on how to make the onclick action render the dialog component.
I know I need to add something in here..
 manageBookmark(parsedParams, this.props.documentRdxDoc.acm, this.props.documentRdxDoc.docTitle)}>
<Tooltip label='Manage Bookmark' position='right'>
<FontIcon className='material-icons' style={{color:
 appConfig.globalFontColor}} tooltip="Notifications">star</FontIcon>
</Tooltip>

A: You need to create the dialog component itself and then show it when the FontIcon is clicked (using the onClick property).
The dialog state can be tracked using the component state object and modified via handler methods.
Here's an example based on the documentation site:
export default class DialogButtonSample extends React.Component {
  state = {
    open: false,
  };

  handleOpen = () => {
    this.setState({open: true});
  };

  handleClose = () => {
    this.setState({open: false});
  };

  render() {
    const actions = [
      <FlatButton
        label="Cancel"
        primary={true}
        onClick={this.handleClose}
      />,
      <FlatButton
        label="Submit"
        primary={true}
        disabled={true}
        onClick={this.handleClose}
      />,
    ];

    return (

             manageBookmark(parsedParams, this.props.documentRdxDoc.acm, this.props.documentRdxDoc.docTitle)}>
                <Tooltip label='Manage Bookmark' position='right'>
                    <FontIcon className='material-icons' style={{color: appConfig.globalFontColor}} tooltip="Notifications" onClick={this.handleOpen}>star</FontIcon>
                </Tooltip>
                <Dialog
                  title="Dialog With Actions"
                  actions={actions}
                  modal={false}
                  open={this.state.open}
                  onRequestClose={this.handleClose}
                >

    );
  }
}


This past month, in honor of Campanita's 9th birthday, I decided to start illustrating and posting her story on my Instagram.
If you follow me on my social networks, you already know that Campanita is my tiny Chihuahua, and that I love her so so so freaking much!
And because it was her birthday, of course I got her some presents! First of all, she got a new outfit, perfect for summer time! I also got her a new cute (and really pink) blanket, and finally, some fun, cute and yummy treats!
She also got Salmon Oil From Zesty Paws and I couldn't be more grateful! her health is so important to me, and now even more that she is getting old :(. This Oil is An all-natural dietary supplement with Wild Alaskan Salmon, which features Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids to deliver premium nourishment.
She also got this Self-Heated Dog Bed from petmagasin.com, that she has been loving! I'm really grateful about this present – this bed is awesome, it's not only self-heating, but absorbs, holds, and reflects your dog's body heat. Since it insulates doggies from cold floors, obviously Campanita only wants to be in this bed hahahahaha, she gets so comfy and warm.
Pet Magasin was super nice and gave me a coupon to share with all of you!
Get a 30% off !!!
and don't forget to follow Campanita's story on my instagram!!!

February 6, 1910 in the sky: 1st certified aircraft in South America
Flight History – February 6, 1910. This February 1910 marks the centenary of the country's independence in Argentina, leading to some celebrations within the framework of the festival, the first flight in the history of this country. South America, in official view. A fantastic performance "unpublished" which would be in the guise of a Frenchman who, to be exact, had already unofficially signed on a plane in the Argentine skies.
This French pilot is none other than the young 21-year-old Henry Brookie, who has won the famous Sesame n ° 26 since December 1909 and already holds a pilot's license. Taking control of his biplane type aircraft will be equipped with voice workshops, equipped with a motor capable of delivering 50 horsepower, while the aviator will fly over the Longchamp Racecourse in Buenos Aires during his demonstration.
Brooke has traveled to Argentina for the exhibition at the joint request of the State of Argentina and Argentine aviator Jorge Newberry. Its flight of eight minutes and forty-five seconds scans 3,000 people to see the sky evolve at an altitude of 60 meters, at a speed of forty kilometers per hour.

David Haney
David Haney, Ph.D.
President of Hiram College
HaneyDP@hiram.edu
Dave Haney has been in higher education for over 30 years. Before coming to Hiram, he was president of Centenary University in New Jersey. He holds an MA and PhD in English from the State University of New York at Buffalo and a BA in English from Macalester College, where he was inducted into Phi Beta Kappa.
He began his administrative career as Dean of Students at the Cambridge School, a progressive secondary boarding school near Boston, MA, where he discovered that working with smart team members to provide transformative education to students was the best career possible. After five years he returned to higher education with a one-year sabbatical replacement appointment at Swarthmore College followed by a 12-year faculty career at Auburn University in Alabama, where he also served as Director of Undergraduate Studies and then Director of Graduate Studies for an English department with over 100 faculty members. He moved to Appalachian State University in Boone, NC, to chair the English department, and then entered university-level administration as Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education. In that role he implemented a new general education program, reshaped student services and interdisciplinary programs into a University College, and created an early intervention program for at-risk students.
Following a year as Provost of Black Hills State University in South Dakota and as a policy analyst for the South Dakota Board of Regents, he moved to private higher education as Vice President for Academic Affairs and Dean of Faculty at Emory & Henry College in southwest Virginia. There he led the founding of the Emory & Henry School of Health Sciences, raising $5.7 million to inaugurate graduate programs in physical therapy, occupational therapy, and physician assistant studies. He also led the development of a strategic initiative for project-based liberal education, the expansion of community engagement initiatives, the growth of the honors program, and the expansion of international education. As president of Centenary University, he led the effort to achieve financial sustainability, reorganized the university's administration, developed a strategic plan using the principles of human-centered design, expanded both institutional and student connections to the community, and raised $2.8 million for the construction of a turf baseball field. After departing from Centenary in December 2018, he developed a consulting practice on strategic planning, published articles in the national higher education press, and began drafting a book that uses "hermeneutics," or the philosophy of interpretation, to address problems arising from the modern emphasis on the individual and to provide a philosophical basis for successful administrative practices.
His scholarship has focused on British Romantic poetry and the philosophical connection between interpretation and ethics, with two monographs on Penn State Press's Literature and Philosophy series, as well as articles on British Romanticism, literature and philosophy and higher education. Dave is married to Lisa Baldwin, a veteran elementary school teacher and musician, who holds an MA in Appalachian Studies from Appalachian State University. As the presidential couple at Centenary University, they regularly welcomed students, staff, faculty, trustees, and alumni to the president's home, and they attended student events whenever possible. Lisa was the leader of a grant-funded initiative to connect Centenary students with the local elder community, and she served on the board of a local nonprofit that addressed issues of domestic violence. Dave has a previous career as a bluegrass musician, and Lisa is a singer-songwriter with her own children's music and movement program, "Music, Minds, and Motion," so they continue to play music together. Dave relaxes by building things (most recently a she-shed for Lisa), and they love to travel through national parks with their teardrop camper and their blond lab rescue dog, Jefferson. They have one son, James, who currently teaches English in Spain.

Ein Eisewer ("Eis-Ewer"), manchmal auch Eiskahn war ein kleiner Bootstyp, der bis in das 19. Jahrhundert zum Aufsägen vereister Fahrrinnen genutzt wurde.

Geschichte
Auf der Elbe und anderen regelmäßig zufrierenden nordeuropäischen Flüssen verwendete man über Jahrhunderte einfache Hilfsmittel, wie Eisewer, beziehungsweise Eiskähne zum Herstellen schiffbarer Fahrrinnen. Die hölzernen Fahrzeuge wurden von zwei Mann Besatzung bedient und erreichten pro Tag eine aufgeschnittene Strecke von rund 80 Metern. Der Sägemechanismus ähnelte einer Gattersäge.

Eisewer wurden beispielsweise noch in den Eiswintern 1845 und 1869/1870 genutzt, in denen Dampfer auf der Elbe einfroren. Auf der Suche nach Abhilfe wurde auch mit Kanonenschlägen gearbeitet und versucht, den Eisbrecher Pilot aus Russland zu erwerben. Erst der darauf folgende und nochmals erheblich schwerwiegendere Eiswinter führte in Hamburg zum Bau des Eisbrechers Comité, der im Dezember 1871 in Dienst gestellt wurde.

Hampton Inn Owners Announce Location of 87 Room Inn
CIRCLEVILLE – Today Shaun Pan and Steve Chen announced the location and plans for the 87 Room Hampton Inn in Circleville. Both Pan and Chen have 40 years of combined experience in the hospitality, experience, and ownership of hotels.
"Hampton Inn by Hilton is one of the most widely recognized lodging brands in the world, and we are pleased to add the Circleville area to our family of hotels," said Pan. "Circleville was on our radar, but the outpouring support from the mayor and local entities reinforced that building in Circleville was the right thing."
Pan and Chen's family came to this country in 1978 and purchased their first hotel from the classified section of the paper, a 21 unit roadside hotel on January 1, 1980. The hotel had some local History, Cincinnati Reds Johnny Bench's parents owned it before them.
Pan started his career in Hospitality after receiving a Bachelors degree in Business Administration from Ohio State University. Then he owned and operated two hotels in Middletown Ohio for over 20 years with his partner and family member Steve Chen who went to school for Computer science at the University of Cincinnati.
Pan and Chen now operate two successful hotels Hawthorn Suites by Wyndham in Cincinnati Ohio, that has the highest ranking of all Wyndham hotels on trip advisor in Cincinnati and ranked in top 10 hotels in 2012-2018, and a new six-story 122 room Hampton Inn built in Newport Kentucky, a hotel that supports the Newport on the Levee area. It has also won several prestigious awards, in 2017 The Hampton Lighthouse Award an award that is only given to the top 5% of all Hamptons and in 2018 The Hilton Circle of Excellence Award for ranking in the top 10% of Hamptons.
The ownership team is planning to break ground on five hotels and open one by the fall of 2020 expanding their portfolio substantially. Pan told Sciotopost that they support the local businesses and attractions by referrals and special offers.
"Our customers want to experience the area, and most ask the front desk what is available in the area. Our customers want to experience the local eateries, not usually chain restaurants. They want to see what the area has to offer, so this is how we work closely with the community. At our Hampton Inn in Kentucky we sold the most tickets in our area for the Newport Aquarium last year at our front desk at the hotel," said Pan. We have maps that customers pick up at the front desk or their rooms that give them a guide to the area that highlights local."
Circleville's Hampton Inn will have 87 rooms, state of the art technology, and four electric car charging stations. Pan said that Tim Wilson of the Pickaway County Welcome center noted that one amenity that was needed in the area was a large meeting room the biggest in the area could only hold around 50 people.
"The Hampton will have a meeting room that can hold up to 90 people. The room could be used for large corporate meetings, wedding parties, and conventions in the area. We also will offer a private board room that can hold around 12 people for smaller meetings or for professionals to get away and work in a comfortable environment," said Pan.
The Hampton Inn will break ground in July and is located beside Walmart on South Court Street in front of the Thompson building. It will be a Four story building with a water feature and lots of amenities. The Inn will face South to Southwest angled towards U.S. 23.
"It's an honor to have been so welcomed to build the first new hotel in over 20 years in this area by leaders that want to make Circleville the next destination for travelers," stated Mr. Pan. "And to be able to do it under the Hilton umbrella makes this project even more notable. We're thrilled to be adding this new Hampton Inn to our portfolio with such an outpouring of local support and teamwork."
With its name recognition and outstanding reputation, Hampton Inn Circleville is expected to be a top choice for travelers to the Circleville/Pickaway County region. Pan and his partners are looking forward to a successful relationship with the City of Circleville, and are excited to become active members of the Circleville community.

The human body is a complex machine, and the foods that we use as "fuel" have an impact on the bodies general health. The same is true, especially in the case of your gums and teeth. Many dentists are concerned that their patients are consuming a record number of sugar-filled sodas, fruit drinks, candies, and non-nutritious snacks. All of these food choices can negatively affect dental health and can take a serious toll on the gums and teeth over time.
It is very important for children and teens to start establishing healthy eating habits to prevent future decay. When bacteria (plaque) come into contact with sugar in the mouth, acid is produced which attacks the teeth for 20 minutes or more. This can eventually cause tooth decay.
So what foods are more likely to cause tooth decay? Any foods that contain sugars can contribute to tooth decay. Almost all foods have some kind of sugar, however, they should not be totally removed from our diet because they provide essential nutrients and give us energy. One should choose foods low in added sugar and the simple sugars which are present in soft drinks, hard candies, cookies, and pastries.
If your diet lacks certain nutrients then you could be more at risk for infection and periodontal (gum) disease. This is a major cause of tooth loss in adults.
So what can you do to prevent tooth decay and gum disease through healthy diet?
Limit the number of sugary between-meal snacks.
If you cannot brush after a meal, chew sugarless gum containing Xylitol, a sugar substitute that reduces tooth decay.
Floss or use an interdental (between teeth) cleaner daily to remove plaque (a thin film of bacteria) from between gums and underneath teeth.
Schedule regular cleanings, dental visits, and routine checkups.
Keep a food diary and compare this to the food guide pyramid's daily recommendations.


In urban areas during the early years of the 19th C. the spread of gas lighting was rapid, but in rural areas it was very slow in developing. Instead, oil lights remained the most common type of lighting. The rural areas lacked the needed population density to make the production, distribution, and sale of gas cost effective. So it wasn't until the middle to the end of the 19th C. before it was replaced by another coal-based fuel – kerosene. Unlike the coal gas used in urban areas kerosene could be stored in containers and safely delivered to customers.
As the price of whale oil started to rise during the early years of the 19th C. and gas lighting was not yet available in most areas, alternatives started to be sought out. The first fuel to be developed was a mixture of alcohol and turpentine. Known as Burning Fluid it was easily produced and was inexpensive to purchase. The lamps that burned it were simple to make and operate and it produced a white, smokeless flame. But it was also one of the most volatile and dangerous lighting fuels ever produced. Hundreds of people were injured or killed in accidental fires.
Therefore, a search for a better replacement was widely pursued. In 1846, a Nova Scotia physician named Abraham Gesner was experimenting with coal as a fuel source. Related to but different from illuminating gas, he produced a clear, thin fluid which he named kerosene. It was inexpensive to produce and much safer than the earlier burning fluids. It very quickly replaced oils as the main source of illuminate throughout the rural areas in America. By 1864 it unquestionably became the most popular lamp fuel in North America.
A flat-wick lamp was the most common type of kerosene lamp. Simply constructed it consisted of a fuel tank with an attached lamp burner and a glass chimney. The chimney performed two important functions. The first is that it kept the flame from burning out, and second, its shape created a thermally induced draft which enhanced combustion. The bottom of the flat cotton wick extended into the kerosene and the top was held in place by a wick-adjustment mechanism. The quality of the flame was controlled by adjusting the height of the wick.
The last and most significant advancement in lamp design was when the Welsbach mantle technology that was commonly used with coal gas lighting was applied to kerosene lighting (refer to the Gas Lighting section). This technology proved so successful that it has remained essentially unchanged and continues to be used in modern camping lanterns.
Kerosene lamps continued to be used in many parts of the U.S. well into the 20th C. until the rural areas were fully electrified and incandescent lighting was introduced.
The visual effects of kerosene lighting remained similar to that of animal and plant oil lighting except it was much brighter – approximately twice as many lumens per Btu.


I have just finished reading Todd Purdum's devastating, illuminating article from Vanity Fair about the papers of George F. Kennan (1904-2005), Cold War architect.
This trove is an invaluable asset for scholars, historians and journalists. (I'm not sure if any journalists remain.) To see this Cold War architect's plans in detail (especially the margin notes on the blueprints) will help us to better understand the design, construction and evolution of the ideas that buttress our present monolithic empire. Material like this from the horse's mouth is so much more enlightening than all the other clever and perceptive analyses made by others, after the fact.
It occurred to me that while Kennan may have started the Cold War ball rolling on the political/diplomatic front, the clinically mad mathematician, John Nash implemented the strategic, technical and paranoid broad strokes that became the metrics of the security and secrecy obsessed state we now occupy.
Is it inevitable that our species should come to its sad conclusion at the burnt out end of American empire? I suppose that even at our founding there was that terrible hubris that can only achieve its full toxic unfolding in a monotheist mindset (yes, even in a deist mindset).
Just as Curtis details the social and political aspects of our impending extinction, so Sam Beckett has detailed our spiritual extinction. I have just finished viewing films of his complete works for the theater (available on Netflix). It is pretty hard to make it through all this without having to come face to face with the irrevocable conclusion that the world mankind has come to so dominate would have been better off had we never existed (in spite of our monumental sense of literary irony, our species' lovable, self-deprecating humor and our disarming Vaudevillian pratfalls). Beckett brings this spiritual death home on a decidedly personal, individual level. In the recently published Letters 1941-1956, Beckett celebrated his new-found avocation of gardener-god.
More and more I have found myself delighted to exist at the end of history. How delighted? Because in our end is our beginning, to paraphrase Eliot—and everything in between. In our end we will see this place, our home, clearly, for the first time. I think that, even though I came to majority in the halcyon, post-war Eisenhower years, I still had a deep, emotional grasp of the period that began with my birth in 1937. I had a number of critical coincidences in my childhood that aimed me as surely toward my present state as if programmed for the target.
I see more and more that the last efforts of my dotage lie in the direction of mining our collective past for clues as to how to fully express these last days. As Rilke said in his "Notebooks of Malte Laureds Brigge,"
Having had this traumatic vision of our end makes it extremely difficult to even converse with "normal" people on levels beyond such vital topics as the latest new car models, celebrity infidelities and sports scores. I feel as if I emerged from the mouth of Plato's cave to see, not a blazing sun, but a black hole. I now regard most discussions of politics, progress and especially spirituality as being hopelessly irrelevant.
I believe that, the closer we get to the end, fewer and fewer will actually see it coming—kind of like the perception of global climate change in America today. Perhaps, after all, there is a Divine Providence keeping us in the dark, like docile cattle before the knife.
"He knows nothing. Let him sleep on." - Beckett, "Waiting for Godot"
Cicero was right. All that matters now are a library and a garden. A loaded Beretta might buy a little time but will just put off the inevitable—as Cicero well understood when Mark Anthony's assassins came for him.

Visiting Artwork: Giulio Romano, Tapestry from the set 'Children Playing'
15 Sep 2022 – 16 Jan 2023
Closed on Tuesday
Calouste Gulbenkian Museum
The second visiting artwork of the Calouste Gulbenkian Museum comes from the Museo Poldi Pezzoli, in Milan.
The tapestry set Children Playing by Giulio Romano, is composed of four large tapestries and two fragments, belonging to the Gulbenkian Collection. A fragment on loan from the Museo Poldi Pezzoli, in Milan, will be the next Visiting Artwork to be exhibited, reunited for the first time with the rest of the set to which it belongs. This will be a unique opportunity to admire the true magnificence of the complete set, a remarkable group of tapestries that epitomizes the artistic and technical quality that was achieved in this art form during the 16th century.
The Children Playing set is thought to have been produced for the cardinal Ercole Gonzaga. The tapestries bear the Gonzaga coat of arms and are thought to have been produced in Mantua at the workshop of Nicolas Karcher, a master tapestry-maker from Brussels who settled in Italy.

Biogas first in Kenya
A major deal has been clinched between a leading UK-based engine service provider and a Kenyan developer of biogas and solar plants.
Tropical Power, a developer of biogasand solar plants in Africa, has signed a deal with UK-based Clarke Energy to supply the first two containerised Jenbacher biogas engines in Sub-Saharan Africa.
The units will be supplied to an agricultural biogas plant located at a farm near Lake Naivasha, in Kenya.
Anaerobic digestion is an established technology in Europe and Asia for the treatment of biodegradable wastes and for the production of renewable power, though there are few examples of large commercial anaerobic digestion facilities in Africa.
This first for engine service provider Clarke Energy, which is an authorised distributor and service provider for GE Power & Water's gas engine business, demonstrates the ability of this technology to provide continuous reliable and sustainable power on the African continent.
James Hobday, Clarke Energy's new Business Development Manager for Africa, said: "We are delighted to be supplying gas engines to our first biogas project in Sub-Saharan Africa. This project demonstrates the viability of biogas as a power source in Africa to deliver significant supplies of power to the region."
Mike Nolan, Operations Director at Tropical Power, has significant experience of power generation in Africa and he sees great potential for biogas to help power in the African continent – especially when used in combination with solar power.
Nolan said: "We selected Clarke Energy to supply these biogas engines on the basis of their experience of operating in Sub-Saharan Africa, along with a technical solution that offered high electrical efficiency and robust performance using biogas at high altitude."
Biogas will be produced from an agricultural anaerobic digester processing wastes to give power and fertilizer.
It will allow 2.4MW of renewable electricity to be produced in rural Kenya providing power to the local farm and surrounding area, enough to power 5-6,000 typical homes.
The engines will operate in a combined heat and power(CHP) configuration increasing the overall plant efficiency, through the recovery of heat which will displace diesel normally used in the heating of greenhouses at the farm.
The anaerobic digestion facility will produce biogas, originating from the digestion of food processing wastes coming from the surrounding farms. The technology used in the biogas plant's design is a novel, advanced technology licensed from Germany.
Clarke Energy is contracted for a turnkey project to supply, engineer and install the CHP generators. The biogas will be fed into 2 x J420 Jenbacher gas enginesfrom GE Power & Water. The engines are specially configured to operate at the high altitude of the project at nearly 2,000 metres above sea level.
The gas engines will be configured for cogeneration, with surplus heat recovered as hot water and used for biogas plant process heating and for heating adjacent greenhouses.
The biogas engines will be supplied as containerised units for operation in hot and tropical countries. Containerisation facilitates the ready 'plug-and-play' deployment of the units.
Economic development in Kenya leads to strains on the local power distribution network. Creation of biogas using waste materials will deliver the reliable production of fuel.
In turn, using this gas in the Jenbacher gas engine will facilitate consistent supplies of power to the local area. Surplus power will be supplied to the local electricity grid, helping to stabilise local electricity supplies.
Reliable power helps to ensure consistent business operations and hence is a driver for economic growth and performance.
Following the success of its Nigerian business, Clarke Energy established an East African base in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania in 2012.
Clarke Energy will provide support to Tropical Power, training operators with gas engine operation and maintenance. The more demanding maintenance procedures will be supported by Clarke Energy's East African service hub.
The biogas engines are scheduled for delivery to Kenya in the last quarter of 2013.
The project will be delivered using a combination of European technology and local content originating from local suppliers and operated by Kenyan nationals.
