Explore the broad field of humanities, and read about some of the topics you could study in an online humanities bachelor's degree program. Review your wide-ranging job options with an undergraduate degree in humanities. Schools offering Interdisciplinary Studies degrees can also be found in these popular choices.
What Is a Bachelor's Degree in Humanities?
A bachelor's degree in humanities is a liberal arts degree program that covers numerous academic disciplines, including literature, religion, art, history and anthropology. You can usually complete a bachelor's degree program in four years, or possibly even two years, if you have already earned an associate's degree. Because humanities is such a general area of study, it prepares you for a broad range of career options, including teaching, social work, media and public relations. Some schools offer these programs entirely online, while others offer only a portion of the curriculum online.
Common Courses Sociology, fiction and poetry, American literature, world religions, political science, cultural communication
Other Academic Requirements Many humanities degrees allow or require students to complete an internship or create a capstone project before graduating
Program Outcomes Graduate school or a variety of careers related to education, social services and sales, among others
What Classes Will I Take?
The courses you'll take in your program will vary by the area of humanities you choose to focus on; for example, you may choose to focus your studies on a concentration area, such as creative writing, women's studies, ethnic studies or English. In some humanities programs, rather than taking required set of major courses, you could work with an advisor to create your own curriculum, one that best suits your academic and career goals. You could also complete a capstone course or internship. Examples of classes you may take include:
Cultural communication
Greek and Roman mythology
Fiction and poetry
How Will My Degree Help Me?
You could continue your education by moving on to a master's or doctoral degree program related to the humanities. A humanities degree program is also good preparation for graduate degree programs in other disciplines, such as law and medicine. If you're interested in teaching at the elementary or secondary levels, you could enroll in a post-bachelor's teacher certification program. Alternatively, you can search for employment after earning your degree. Because humanities is such as broad discipline, you'll be able to pursue many different job titles, such as teacher, editor, social work assistant, writer and sales manager.

PROSTITUTE DIES DURING SEX WITH CORPER IN TRANSIT, CULPRIT ARRESTED 5 MONTHS LATER
Posted on February 1, 2020 February 1, 2020 AuthoradminLeave a comment
Suspect, 27, on his way to NYSC orientation camp in Bauchi, stops over in Nasarawa
◗ Pays prostitute for brief hours of sex, flees leaving dead body in hotel room, arrested five months later in Benin City
◗ I have a fiancée, I only want to experience sex with a prostitute, suspect says
On August 20, 2019, when the naked body of a young woman was found stone-cold dead inside Room C4 in City Rock Hotel, Maraba, Nasarawa State, there was pandemonium, fear and uncertainty. All that was known was that the young man that lodged in the room the previous night brought her in to spend the night with him. By morning he had vanished, leaving the management of the hotel in a quandary. Unravelling the mystery of the dead body in the hotel room, therefore, was a job for detectives.
Enter the IRT operatives. In time, the pieces were glued together. The dead body was identified as 22-year-old Favour Edoh, an alleged sex worker; the suspect, 27-year-old Augustine Ohimai, a member of the National Youth Service Corps, was tracked down to Benin City where he was arrested on January 17, 2020; and from his confession, detectives tied up the loose ends. What emerged is a story of illicit sex gone awry.
For the young man, his poor and immoral decision to pick a prostitute from the street came back to haunt him. Now he has to face the nightmare: when sex ends in death, punishment is inescapable.
Led to doom by his libido
A tearful Augustine Ohimai soberly recounted the story of the night his life turned upside down, the moment what he thought would be brief hours of enjoyment became a tragedy.
Up till that fateful evening, his life was in order: a young man from Benin City who has successfully completed his education at Auchi Polytechnic where he studied Computer Science, en route to Bauchi for his National Youth Service.
"On my way to Bauchi, I stopped at Maraba in Nasarawa State because the journey was very far. I asked a commercial motorcycle driver to take me to an affordable hotel. He took me to City Rock Hotel. Because I had only a few hours before boarding another bus to Bauchi, the receptionist agreed to collect N2, 500 from me.
After I checked into a room, I went out to look for water and something to eat. Some prostitutes hustling in the vicinity of the hotel approached me and asked if I'd need their service and I was interested. They asked for N5, 000, but one of them, who later told me her name was Favour, agreed to take N2, 000 for the night. She said that there was no customer and the day was already over."
Having paid the sex worker, she followed him to his hotel room.
"I took my bath and we started making love, I was still on the first round when I discovered that her body was no longer moving. I checked her and I realized she was gone," he recounted.
"I was scared. I moved her severally to see if she would wake. I decided to run away because I knew no one would believe my story."
At 6:30 am, he sneaked out of the hotel premises and took the first bus out of the city.
After three weeks at the NYSC orientation camp in Bauchi, he thought the tragedy was behind him. Redeployed to Delta State, he began his service to his fatherland. Every weekend, he'd travel to Benin and stay in his sister's house, at Eme-Ora West Road, Evboriaria. That was where police arrested him on January 17, 2020.
Now he must account for the crime that happened inside a hotel room in Nasarawa on the night of August 19, 2019.
On why he succumbed to the lure of paid sex that night, Ohimai could only offer a lame excuse: "I have never slept with a prostitute before. Although, I have a fiancée who I am planning to marry at the end of my NYSC programme, I wanted to know the difference; I wanted to have a taste of sex with a prostitute."
Still trying to make a sense of what happened, he claimed neither he nor his partner took sex drugs. "I am sure she was sick because I did not do much before she died," he said. "I do not take drugs or alcohol. I ran away only because I was terrified."
The suspect debunked the insinuation that he killed the victim for ritual. "I do not do Yahoo Yahoo. I am a dedicated child of God. You can go to my church and ask about me. I did not take anything from her, even the money that I gave her was still in her purse when I left," he claimed.
He concluded his story on a pleading note: "I want to use this opportunity to beg her family to forgive me. The devil took advantage of my weakness to put me in trouble. If God save me from this problem, I promise to be a pastor and serve God all the days of my life."
The case of missing bra and panties
The manager of the hotel, Emmanuel Paul Agbocheni, who spoke with Saturday Sun over the phone, refuted some aspects of the suspect's story.
For instance, he alleged that the deceased was discovered stark naked with her clothes, including undies, missing.
"He came to our hotel on that day at about 11 pm. He was alone and requested for a room. After filling the data form, he paid N2, 500, the price for the cheapest room. We asked him if he was staying alone and he told us his girlfriend would soon join him. As a matter of policy, we do not allow two men to sleep in a room for fear that they might plan and execute bad thing from there" Agbocheni narrated.
According to him, the guest returned a few minutes later with a young lady. The next morning, there was a heavy rainfall from 4 am till 9 am, delaying the cleaning of the rooms. When the housekeeper decided to clean the empty rooms and discovered that Room C4 was locked, she assumed the occupant was yet to check out. She found the room still locked at 12:30 pm, which was past check out time and promptly drew the attention of the receptionist to it. They took a spare key, opened the door and to their horror discovered the naked body of a woman on the bed. They raised an alarm and the hotel management subsequently alerted the police at the Maraba station.
The hotel manager claimed the victim's belongings cloth, pant, bra, money and phones were missing.
"It was only her makeup kit that was seen inside a green purse that we assumed belonged to her," he affirmed.
He could hardly hide his relief at the arrest of the suspect. "We are grateful to God that police have found that young man," he said. "This will prove to the world that we had no hand or knowledge of the incident."
Detectives are currently rounding off their work on the case. They are awaiting the outcome of an autopsy to ascertain the cause of death which could either corroborate or contradict suspect's claim that the victim died naturally during their sex romp.

Berkeley BART station shut down after suspicious substance is found
By BY Examiner Staff • July 28, 2006 12:00 am
A suspicious substance shut down the downtown Berkeley BART station on Thursday for almost an hour.
The substance was discovered at 11:50 a.m. and caused 20-minute delays on the Richmond to Fremont and the Richmond to Daly City lines, according to chief BART spokesman Linton Johnson.
"There was something spilled, we tested it, and it wasn't dangerous," he said.
The unidentified substance was discovered near the station agent's booth, BART spokesman Jim Allison said. The station was closed until 12:45 p.m. while BART investigated whether the material was dangerous.
During the closure, trains were turned around at the North Berkeley and Ashby stations and an AC Transit bus shuttled passengers between the stops. Service on the two affected lines was restored shortly after the station reopened and did not affect the evening commute.

Q: Wordpress - use $wpdb->update and limit 1 It's probably a stupid question but I'm trying to use $wpdb->update instead of $wpdb->query but I'm not sure how to use limit 1. So instead of
$wpdb->query("update {$wpdb->prefix}vp_pms_group_users set read = '1', seen = '1', time_seen = '{$date_time_seen}' where message_id = '{$last_message_id}' and group_id = '{$group_id}' and to_username = '{$session_uid}' and read = '0' limit 1");

I've tried with
$wpdb->update($wpdb->prefix . "vp_pms_group_users", array(
                'read' => '1',
                'seen' => '1',
                'time_seen' => $date_time_seen,
            ),
            array(
                'message_id' => $last_message_id,
                'group_id' => $group_id,
                'to_username' => $session_uid,
                'read' => '0',
            ),
            LIMIT 1 //????
);

Should I use limit after the array or inside it?
Thanks.

A: Here's an answer, it's not pretty, but based on looking through the method chain within $wpdb it's possibly the only way to achieve what you're after, and still use $wpdb->update().
Step 1.
Make your update with a unique parameter which you'll later replace, note that this must be the last parameter passed to the WHERE clause, otherwise replacing it with LIMIT 1 will cause a syntax error in your SQL statement.
Something like:
$wpdb->update(
    $wpdb->prefix . "vp_pms_group_users",
    array(...),
    array(
        ...
        'MyReplacementLimit' => 1
    )
);

This should give you an SQL statement like so:
UPDATE vp_pms_group_users SET ... WHERE ... AND MyReplacementLimit = 1;

Step 2:
Now you can use the query filter to replace that fake clause with a limit...
add_filter('query', function ($query) {
    return str_replace('AND MyReplacementLimit = 1', 'LIMIT 1', $query);
});

This is untested and is based purely on reading through the code available in $wpdb. It may need a few tweaks to get working correctly.
A simpler solution:
You could always just use SQL directly, so long as you're using $wpdb->prepare() it's probably easier to read, and more understandable than the above approach.

A: you should change Previous answer add_filter to this:
add_filter('query', function ($query) {
    return str_replace("AND `MyReplacementLimit` = '1'", 'LIMIT 1', $query);
});


Finally! U.S SEC Releases Cryptocurrency Token Guidance: What's Next For XRP And Other Tokens?
For a long time, there has been a call for a clear regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has been focusing on tokens that fall into the security category but, until now, has not given any clear definition of token securities. Today's cryptocurrency news is about the first ever SEC cryptocurrency token and guidance and how it affects the XRP SEC saga and the ETH SEC saga. The Guidance, per the report on CoinDesk, was released yesterday.
The token guidance from the SEC focuses on the security classifications of tokens. What this means is that it outlines the possible circumstances in which it may view a given token as a security. The XRP army has been waiting for a day when the XRP SEC saga will be put to rest. Even the Ethereum community has been expecting this day. However, the SEC still didn't clarify the issue of security tokens. How so?
A while ago, William Hinman, the Director of Corporation Finance at the SEC, said that they were working on formulating new regulatory guidance for cryptocurrency tokens. Many other agencies confirmed that the SEC was working on such a document. At the time, Hinman said that this document will serve as a guide for investors to help them determine which tokens are securities. This is why it contains details of what falls under the securities category and what doesn't. The document made reference to the Howey Test that has been used by regulators to define securities for many years now.
The new guidance leaves many questions unanswered so it doesn't solve the XRP SEC saga or the ETH SEC saga. Rather than use a new method of definition, the SEC decided to use the old Howey test which wasn't even updated to suite the unique nature of cryptocurrency assets. It didn't explain active participants impact the cryptocurrency projects, how startups that aren't based in the United States would be affected, and under what circumstances tokens will no longer be classified as securities.
Well, the good news is that even if this new guidance leaves many questions unanswered, it is still a step in the right direction and it is better than nothing at all. Hopefully, it would be updated in the future to put this XRP SEC saga to rest ones and for all. For now, investors and exchanges have no choice but to wait and see how it all plays out. XRP is doing well per adoption and price movement. The more the SEC delays in creating a clear regulatory framework for tokens, the more successful the industry will become. Rather than worrying about the XRP SEC saga or the ETH SEC saga, it's better to enjoy the flow in the market one day at a time.

#1 Mistake In Modern Music Marketing and How To Avoid It | hypebot
The most common mistake in modern music marketing is both frustrating to fans and deprives artists of precious plays. It is also very easy to avoid.
"I'd say one of the most misunderstood marketing essentials, even in 2019, is that marketers tend to simply direct listeners to a single track on a streaming service," says Cindy James, VP of streaming and playlist strategy at Island Records.
"The problem is that if the user who clicks on the link isn't a premium subscriber of that service, they won't be able to play the song on demand," James told Music Ally. Most music services, including the mobile version of Spotify's free tier, do not enable full single song plays. If you are not a paying subscriber, most only deliver 30 seconds of music, if they offer anything at all.
James suggests that, "it's far better to direct listeners to a playlist of that artist's music on a joint premium and ad-funded service."
Other alternatives include pointing fans to the track on Soundcloud or YouTube. Bandcamp also offers the option to allow full song playback. Services like Linkfire (pictured to the right) and AmplifyLink quickly create a landing page that allows the fan to use the music service of their choice.

It's the time of year when kids gear up for the start of school, filling their backpacks with new textbooks and school supplies. But they may be carrying more than just educational materials with them. Backpacks can be the source of neck, shoulder and back strain.
According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, in 2016 emergency departments, doctors' offices and clinics treated 35,937 people for backpack-related injuries.
De Rham Tortorelli encourages parents to remain vigilant about overloaded backpacks. "Check frequently that your child is not carrying more than 15 percent of his or her body weight in the backpack," she advised. To calculate the maximum weight recommendation, multiply your child's weight by 0.15. The backpack should not weigh more than this number.
• If the backpack seems too heavy for the child, have them remove some of the books and carry them in their arms to ease load on the back.
• Encourage your child to store as many items as they can in their locker, rather than their backpack.
• Educate your child on how to properly wear a backpack by keeping straps on both shoulders, adjusting the straps to fit snugly and using the waist strap.
• Help your child understand how to distribute the weight properly by putting the heaviest items low and near the center of the back.
• The backpack should be positioned evenly in the middle of the back, near the wearer's center of gravity. It should not extend below the lower back.
• When picking up a backpack, lift properly by bending at the knees and hips.
• Shoulder straps should be wide and padded to help distribute the weight evenly.
• Choose sturdy material to help prevent sharp objects from poking through.
• Use a waist strap to hold the pack close to the body.
• Multiple compartments help with organization and even weight distribution.
"A crossbody bag can also be a good alternative for carrying books and supplies," de Rham Tortorelli added.
Parents should not ignore any back pain in a child or teenager and should evaluate backpack use immediately if numbness, tingling or discomfort in the arms or legs are reported.
It's also important to encourage children to be active. "This can promote better muscle strength and flexibility, which makes it easier to carry a backpack," de Rham Tortorelli explained.

New life is being breathed into Horsforth Cemetery Chapel thanks to an innovative project restoring landmark buildings across Leeds.
The chapel, which was built in 1881, is one of a number of landmarks being restored across the city as part of a three year training programme funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund.
Remaking Leeds gives trainees the chance to learn traditional skills that are at risk of being lost and forgotten, such as lime plastering and stone-masonry.
One of those involved is painter and decorator Laura Cunningham-Clarke, (pictured above) who after a two-year course at Leeds College of Building last year, joined the programme in November.
As well as the chapel at Horsforth Cemetery, she has applied her newly acquired skills at Leeds Town Hall and Lotherton Hall near Aberford, Leeds.
Passing on his knowledge and experience alongside her at the chapel is team supervisor Brian Berry, who has worked for Leeds City Council since 1975.
The programme will see a new group of trainees, mostly made up of 18-24 year-olds who already have a general construction qualification, receive bursaries to complete a Level 2 Heritage Construction Award each year.
The Cemetery Chapel had been out of use for some years and was in a badly neglected condition when the team arrived.
"The building was thick with cobwebs, the paint was flaking off the walls and the roof was leaking," said Mr Berry.
Two weeks later the damage has been stripped away, a special primer added, and there are two coats of fresh white paint on the walls.
Miss Cunningham-Clarke is looking forward to using decorative gold-leaf for the first time when she helps refurbish the Oakwood Clock at Roundhay in a couple of weeks.
Miss Cunningham-Clarke, who continues on the Remaking Leeds programme until October, is hopeful that a permanent position will become available at the council.

Matt Kuchar wins the Memorial
Matt Kuchar (Photo credit: Keith Allison)
Matt Kuchar entered Sunday's final round at the Memorial with the lead and despite charges from a few players, he was able to hang on for a two shot victory.
Kuchar entered the day leading at 8-under par, and thanks to the difficult weather that was present throughout much of the week, he was paired up with his two closest competitors in Kevin Chappell and Kyle Stanley, both of whom sat two shots behind. Chappell, Stanley and Scott Stallings made charges at various points throughout the day, but Kuchar never lost the lead, thanks to a superb day of driving the golf ball. Kuchar hit 13 of 14 fairways, and just seemed to be playing smart and tactical golf, the kind that Kuchar needs to play to win events against players who have more distance and creativity.
Last week, Kuchar carried the lead into Sunday at the Crowne Plaza Invitational but couldn't hang on when Boo Weekley grabbed his first win in five years. Kuchar couldn't keep the ball in play last week, missing everything on the left side, which killed him on Sunday. There was none of that this week, as Kuchar fired a final round 68, which was bested only by Stallings and James Driscoll, who each shot 67.
Final Leaderboard
1. Matt Kuchar -12
2. Kevin Chappell -10
3. Kyle Stanley -7
T4. Scott Stallings -6
T4. Bill Haas -6
T57. Rory McIlroy +6
T65. Tiger Woods +8
What The Win Means For Kuchar
The win for Kuchar means that he's won just about everything that you can, with the exception of a major. He's won the smaller PGA Tour events, he's got three big non-majors in the Barclays, the PLAYERS and the Memorial, and he has a WGC win after capturing the Match Play earlier this year. With six wins on the PGA Tour and nine as a professional, Kuchar's next step is to win a major, and with the USGA deciding to go back to Merion this year, a course that sets up well for Kuchar's game, there will be many pegging Kuchar as one of the favourites.
Coming into the week, Kuchar was ranked ninth in the Official World Golf Rankings, but the win here will move him into fifth place, behind only Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy, Adam Scott and Justin Rose. Kuchar also earned $1.116 million for the victory, and it moves him into second place behind Woods in the race for the FedEx Cup.
Even if you didn't think he was going to win this week, the performance of Tiger Woods, namely in Saturday's third round, was definitely the surprise of the week. You can look at a number of stats to try and pinpoint what went wrong, but his 44 on the back nine (teed off on 10), is the highest nine hole score of his career. His final score of 79 was topped only by his memorable 81 in the third round of the 2002 Open Championship. It's not that it's impossible for Woods to have a bad tournament, but at Muirfield Village where he's won five times?
To those who are wondering what it means for Merion in a couple of weeks, don't read too much into it. This is still a guy who has already won four events on the PGA Tour this season. Sometimes this happens, even to players like Tiger Woods. Luke Donald may have summed it up best in a tweet on Saturday night:
I'm guessing Tiger's 44 for nine holes today gave every single golfer on the planet hope for their own game#ThatWasNiceOfHim#GolfIsHard
— Luke Donald (@LukeDonald) June 2, 2013
Hey, sometimes things don't work out the way you planned it, especially in golf. Woods came back and shot an even par round of 72 today. And before anyone asks, no, you shouldn't be worried about Woods or McIlroy right now.
K.J. Choi's new clubs
We all know how good professional golfers are, but perhaps no story illustrates that point any better than what K.J. Choi did this week. Choi hasn't been feeling comfortable on the course, so before he teed it up this week at the Memorial, he took a trip to the local Golf Galaxy in Columbus and tested out some Mizuno MP-64's. He liked them enough to buy them on the spot, and he put them in the bag this week. Not only did he fire an opening round of even par, he navigated the course and the weather to end up tied for 21st at 1-under par. Mizuno man Luke Donald clearly approved:
Saw KJ in the gym this afternoon and he said to me "I'm now playing same clubs as you" – he seemed very chuffed @golf_mizuno #MP64
— Luke Donald (@LukeDonald) May 30, 2013
Notables to miss the cut: John Huh, Chris Kirk, Dustin Johnson, Kevin Streelman, D.A. Points, Webb Simpson, Guan Tianlang, Brandt Snedeker, Nicolas Colsaerts, Branden Grace, Geoff Ogilvy, Jeff Overton, Sang-moon Bae and Nick Watney.
Both Lee Westwood and Johnson Wagner withdrew from the event on Friday night, as opposed to going back out on Saturday morning to complete their second rounds. Both were going to miss the cut anyway, so I get why they wouldn't want to finish out, but I can't imagine that the PGA Tour is too impressed.
On the other end, Seung-yul Noh apparently intended to WD but instead got hit with a DQ after walking off the course and not telling anyone.
Apparently Kyle Stanley has sought putting help from Arron Oberholser. Not quite Woods and Stricker, but something must have worked this week. Stanley has quietly posted top-10 finishes in three of his last five events.
Mikko Ilonen picked up his third career European Tour win this morning in Sweden, with a three shot victory over Jonas Blixt at the Nordea Masters. Matteo Manassero followed up his win at the BMW PGA with a tie for fourth.
Inexplicably, no video seems to exist of Andrew Dodt's holes-in-one at the Nordea.
Despite the weather, Jack Nicklaus and crew kept the course looking great and it was playing pretty difficult too. It's going to be a great venue in a couple of months for the President's Cup.

I think this tour will become a memorable tour for Matt Kuchar. He has played some extra ordinary shots. On the other hand the bad weather has become the plus points for him. Actually he has played so organized. He has looked very confident.

Couples: Now that you're in a relationship, how might you make it a great one? How might you consistently bring your best to each other?

But what about developing the skills and practices we need in order to bring our best to our relationships?
Our closest relationships are a primary determinant of our social, economic, and psychological well being, yet we don't have much in the way of practices or tools to ensure that we consistently build high-quality relationships. So what does a great relationship actually look like? And how might we build one?
Join us on March 23+24 for a hands-on workshop to learn the tools and practices you need to build the relationships you want.
Topics will include: self-awareness, trust, conflict resolution, reactivity, personality styles, and mindfulness.
Invest in being the right person for yourself and the people that matter the most to you.
Seats are limited, register today.
1. Who are you and who is leading the workshop?
The workshop will be led by Alex Li Trisoglio. Alex is a world-class leadership advisor and relationships coach with 20 years' experience working with senior executives of global organizations including McKinsey & Co. and The World Bank.

The only requirement is that you're 18+ and you'd like to learn how to build great relationships. We welcome singles, couples, and those dating to the workshop, and those from diverse communities.
If you're single, bring a friend to get the two-person discount!
3. Will I have to share or stand up in front of the room if I don't want to?
Psychological safety is at the core of our operating model. Workshop participants are invited to share and participate at the level they are comfortable with.
4. What's the schedule going to be like? Are meals provided?
We will start promptly at 9am and end at 5pm on both Saturday and Sunday. Tea and coffee will be available from 8:30am. Meals are not included. We invite you to enjoy a meal at one of the many cafés and restaurants nearby.
5. Is this relevant for my professional development?
While how it applies may slightly differ, the skills and practices to build self-awareness, trust, and resolve conflict are the same and are fundamental in both our personal and professional lives.
If you have professional development funds from your organization, consider using this course as part of your personal leadership growth.
No previous education on relationships is required. However this educational workshop is not therapy. If you have any serious mental health issues or are dealing with addiction, domestic violence, or other serious relationship issues that require intervention, this workshop may not be suitable for you.

The Gufs
A Different Sea
Red Submarine
After a seven-year hiatus The Gufs have returned with A Different Sea and it's arguably the best record of their career.
The Milwaukee four-piece's previous effort, Holiday From You was a terrific album but the band have clearly used their downtime to good effect because A Different Sea is a modern rock masterpiece.
Explosive opener "Beautiful Disaster" picks up where the rather pessimistic Holiday From You left off, but proof that The Gufs are a more upbeat band these days comes on the glorious rocker "Extraordinary" and the energetic "Lifetime". So far, so good, but the highlights of an incredibly strong and consistent record come in the shape of "Free" and the superb pop-rocker "Stars", which morphs spectacularly from a delicate piano intro into an anthem of truly epic proportions.
Frontman and main songwriter Goran Kralj sounds as good as ever, Kevin Sucher's production is first rate and the band is clearly re-energized and refocused, having taken their music and career into their own hands following their split with Atlantic. A Different Sea is a triumphant return – hopefully The Gufs won't leave it another seven years before making the follow-up.

Work For Hire Producer Agreement
Almost all producers receive proper recognition for their reqardless work when it is work-for-for-hire. Rock producers, who do not usually compose the ordy music, receive their corresponding production credits. The best news is that you don`t need to get in touch with a lawyer or slaves via a keyboard to get your hands for an interesting job for the contract of thought. Many models are available online from sites like legalzoom.com or Docracy. WORK FOR HIRE: The producer agrees that all results and revenues from his services are considered a «loan work» for the company [or artist] in accordance with U.S. copyright. Accordingly, the producer also recognizes and accepts that the company is and will be the author and/or exclusive owner of the Beat, including the underlying musical composition and sound recording. Recordings and musical compositions that are included for all intents and purposes and the exclusive owner of the whole world of all rights of any kind included in the copyrights and extension rights contained in copyright or extension rights, as well as any other right, and this company has the right to use any or all of the media that are now known or developed below, throughout the universe, in any configuration. In connection with this, Producer grants the company the right, as an effective lawyer, to execute, recognize, provide and record all beat-related documents in the United States or elsewhere if it cannot execute them within five (5) days of the company`s date. As mentioned above, the work for hire contract should contain the following: a work for rent (or «work for rent») essentially stipulates that a person or company that orders a work by an author retains the actual property and is in fact considered the legal author of the work. The author of the work cannot or should not be publicly credited for the work and has no rights to payment that go beyond what was originally promised in the employment contract.
Steve, what`s the best thing for a producer who wants to retain his rights and be paid for the next 50 years, a WFH agreement basically means that if you hire a musician (or producer or arranger) to contribute to a project or recording session, you retain the copyright to the finished piece and you are considered the rightful author of the work. In a WFH agreement, the contractor (committed musician) is usually asked to create something new (p.B. write, organize, record a game) and is paid for his contribution. Basically, the WFH agreement means that in the future, these contractors will no longer be able to return to claim copyright ownership and claim royalties – their contributions have been offset in the agreed payment, and this agreement is what is written in the business loan agreement. If the agreement is a sale, it is usually structured as «work for rent.» In a loan work, the producer loses all rights to the pace, including copyright and the right to use the beat again for any purpose.

A drawing of the Church of the Holy Apostles in Constantinople?

When the Muslims conquered Constantinople in 1453, one of their first actions was to tear down and demolish the Church of the Holy Apostles, the church to which the mausoleum of Constantine was attached, and to build on it the mosque of Mehmet the Conquerer.
I have never seen a drawing of the church until today. But Ste Trombetti has kindly sent me a link to a digitised manuscript online, which contains an early map of the city of Constantinople!
The oldest known map of #Constantinople (ca. 1420!) by Cristoforo Buondelmonti: Bibl. Medicea Laurenziana Plut. 29.25 pic.twitter.com/w7dBEK7nwr
— Ste. Trombetti (@ste_trombetti) July 27, 2014
The link is to a manuscript at the Biblioteca Medicea Laurenziana, Plut.29.25, Christophori Ensenii descriptio cycladum et aliarum insularum. It appears here, on p.74:
Constantinople 1420, Ensenius / Cristoforo Buondelmonti
The image is not as high resolution as one might like, but I have zoomed in and got this, with the now vanished church in the very centre of field:
The building is labelled "s[an]ctorum apostolorum" ("of the holy apostles"), with abbreviations. The Hippodrome is to the right – note the towers of fortification around it. Left of that are two columns, the right hand one labelled "hic Justinianus in equito porphyia" ("here is Justinian on a porphyry horse"). Above the Church of the Holy Apostles is another column, labelled "hic Constantinus …" with two words underneath which I cannot read, referencing Constantine, of course.
It looks as if most of the churches stand inside a walled enclosure – remember that most of the city was just fields by this date. But this may not be so, as we shall see.
The depiction of Hagia Sophia does not fill one with confidence that the pictures are very accurate, it must be said. But it is certainly better than nothing!
The image itself is not an original, but a copy of a drawing by Cristoforo Buondelmonti, an early traveller, from his Liber insularum archipelagi. Another copy of the map is at Wikimedia commons here, from a Paris ms, apparently:
This is very low resolution, but seems to give a better and more believable image.
Yet another version of the map is owned by the Metropolitan Museum in New York, from where someone has copied a bitmap to Wikimedia.
This is drawing gives us a much more likelike picture. Hagia Sophia looks more accurate. The churches no longer stand in courtyards but have high walls with domes atop them, which is probably correct.
But … this isn't a perfect copy. Note that Justinian on his horse is now perched atop the column. It is just as well that the copy was put on Wikimedia, for the link to the Metropolitan Museum no longer works. It is infuriating that curators do this, considering that locating images is very hit and miss anyway.
Thankfully libraries are getting more sensible, and a visit to the Gallica site at the French National Library can pay dividends. Doing so reveals a volume containing Ptolemy's Cosmographia which also contains plates by Buondelmonti, such as this one, Ms Latin 4802 (1552), on f.134r:
But this is a late copy, and various important bits have vanished. Also the walls of the churches have turned into courtyard walls – perhaps this is a feature of later copies? Here I was hoping for an early copy, but evidently this is not available yet.
A different image in many ways – and one in which the writer has just put stuff wherever he likes, seemingly, is here, a 1450 manuscript copy of the Liber insularum archipelagi sold in Chicago.
The copies of the map of Cristoforo Buondelmonti, from the Liber insularum archipelagi, vary greatly it seems. What we need, I think, is some nice, high resolution images of all the copies that we can find. The results could not fail to be interesting and informative.
UPDATE: Ste Trombetti has kindly sent me a bibliography on Ensenius/Buondelmonti. This includes T. Thomov, "New information about Cristoforo Buondelmonti's drawings of Constantinople", Byzantion 66 (1996) 431-453, which seems to be sadly offline but is often referenced where these maps are concerned. Also a link to another image, a copy of Buondelmonti's "Liber insularum Archipelagi", in MS Lat.X.123, at the Bib. Marciana:
This is clearly not an accurate copy.
I also found a bibliography on the Vatican website, giving Thomov's article as a reference for the following Vatican manuscripts (which, presumably, must contain also copies of the Buondelmonti map): Chig.F.V.110, Ross.702, Ross.704, Urb.lat.277. Sadly none of these appear to have been digitised as yet.
Another find, an article by Michel Balard,[1] tells us more about the map:
Buondelmonti's positive appreciation of the Turks can be perceived not only from the text of the Liber insularum Archipelagi, but also from the illustrated maps which complete his vision of the Aegean world. The most important are those of Constantinople, which can be found in 16 manuscripts of the Liber. Ian Manners has demonstrated how at the beginning of the fifteenth century, the cartographers changed their way of constructing their work.[19] In their bird's eye views, they wanted to represent places and landscapes as they appeared to the travellers. For instance, when they drew the design of Pera, the Genoese colony on the north of the Golden Horn, they show the galleys waiting along the shore, the wooden piers, the walls, the churches and some specific building known by everyone at that time. The maps display the city "as known, as experienced, as remembered, as imagined by artists and cartographers", with a growing realism and a tendency to accentuate and add particular facts of peculiar interest to themselves. In so far as the manuscripts and their drawings can be dated, the maps depict the transformation of Constantinople according to the main events of its history, and particularly according to the contrast between the last years of the Byzantine domination and the reconstruction by the Ottomans after 1453.
When he visited Constantinople in 1421-2, Buondelmonti received from Vitold of Lithuania, father-in-law of John VIII Palaiologos, a commission for a map of Constantinople, which perhaps could have been a model for the illustrations of Buondelmonti's text on the city. The oldest maps, drawn between 1420 and 1450, depict a city quite ruined, with very few indications of monuments and places. The representation insists on the fortifications, sometimes with a single line of walls and towers, sometimes with a double line, similar to the reality. The city has a triangular shape, as is described by many chroniclers and travellers using a frequent topos and comparing the triangle-shaped city to a lateen sail.[20] Very few monuments are drawn inside the walled city: the imperial palace of the Blachernai, two monumental colums, and some churches, but no effort has been made to emphasize or even identify the great church of Hagia Sophia. Pera, described in the text as "Januensium pulcerrima civitas", is shown on the opposite site of the Golden Horn as a very small suburb of Constantinople. The general impression is that of an open and empty city, with a few scattered buildings. Buondelmonti with his text and drawings wants to show the miserable condition of the city and of its inhabitants, whose hostility towards the Latins is underlined by reference to the Franks put to death by the Greeks who, during the crusades, offered them bread mixed with lime (a legend related by many chroniclers since the First Crusade).
The fall of Constantinople in 1453 changed the representation of the city in the copies of the Liber insularum of the second half of the fifteenth century. Buondelmonti died probably after 1431, but those who used his text and illustrated it shared partially his representation of Constantinople. The majority, especially the authors of the copies made in Chios, give many details about the city's system of fortification: a moat, a double line of walls studded with strong towers, a single but mighty line for Pera. And, above all, inside the urban perimeter, a great number of churches, differentiated by their shape and denomination. The more recent maps also show the Byzantine standard: a cross with the quadruple "b" of the Palaiologoi. It seems that the illustrators, longing for the city's Christian past, wanted to enhance its Christian heritage. For them, Constantinople, which possessed so many relics and shrines, is still the New Jerusalem, a holy city with the benefit of divine favour. These copies are often linked with the writings of Aeneas Silvius Piccolomini, who, when he became pope, attempted to…
It is, then, clearly important to have a list of manuscripts, and to get the images from each.
The article is an interesting one, and it is a pity that it is offline. It seems to give a biography of the Florentine priest, Christopher Buondelmonti, who knew Niccolo Niccoli, based himself at Rhodes and visited Constantinople twice, in 1420 and 1421-22, while hunting for Greek manuscripts.
[1]Michel Balard, "Buondelmonti and the Holy War", in: Ruthy Gertwagen & Elizabeth Jeffreys, Shipping, Trade and Crusade in the Medieval Mediterranean: Studies in Honour of John Pryor, (2013), 414-424 (?). Google books preview here is rather odd and I can't make out much about the pagination.↩

Roger, do you know what that thing up in the top left is? It looks like a windmill or a signal tower or something.
Roger Pearse says:
It must be a windmill, I think. Some early Ottoman pictures show loads of windmills inside the city.

What brought you to Dataconomy in the first place?
First of all, it was my passion for events. I decided to become part of the team as I also wanted to work in a startup environment, as it's something quite hyped in Berlin, and organising Big Data events all over Europe was something that definitely fit with my goals.
What do you do at Dataconomy?
I am the Events Manager and I am responsible for the organisation from inception to completion of our European meetups (16 locations at the moment and we intend to keep growing!) and the annual conference Data Natives.
How do you use data driven technologies in your day to day life?
Personally, it's mostly my smartphone, which keeps me connected to my dear ones. I am also now taking advantage of the cool apps that are trendy in Berlin, such as Drive Now, which is a game changer!
Dataconomy puts on several events on a yearly basis with the philosophy of being a "Data Native" – what does this mean to you?
To me it means that we are moving along the pattern of the industry changes, which is in fact a whole new era – from Digital Natives to Data Natives. There is so much technological potential nowadays, and our behaviours, mentalities and preferences are constantly changing, so we want to share this knowledge with our communities.
What topics do you like to read on Dataconomy?
We are quite popular for providing innovative content to our readers, so the more extravagant and daring the content is, the more it captures my attention. I usually like reading topics connected to AI and IoT.
Dataconomy is based in Berlin, what is your favourite thing about living in such a booming tech town?
I love how open-minded people are here, and that combined with their creativity – no wonder Berlin is such a booming tech town! You always feel that you're part of something innovative which can change things for the better, and that's a great feeling to have, especially when you're a foreigner trying to integrate in a new culture.
Touch base with her on LinkedIn or by email at [email protected].

Q: Java blinking cursor Ubuntu terminal I want to stop the blinking cursor while running a program in Java with a Java command in Ubuntu terminal. How can I do it?

A: Your Java program doesn't exactly have control of the terminal the user ran it from. My advice would be to have your program manage its own window which you can control.
But if you don't feel like doing that then one idea is that there are codes which some terminals listen for. This is very dependent on what terminal you are using but Linux seems to mostly adhere to a spec.
Ubuntu manpages even lists its codes here: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/focal/man4/console_codes.4.html
Under ECMA-48 Set Graphics Rendition section it says that ESC [ 25 m sets blink off
correction, as mentioned by VGR, this controls whether printed text blinks, not the cursor blink
So search for and try some different codes for your specific terminal and remember to actually run from your terminal as your IDE terminal isn't necessarily the same:
// \u001B is ESC
public static final String ESC = "\u001B";
public static final String HIDE_CURSOR = ESC + "[?25l";

public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
    System.out.print(HIDE_CURSOR);
    System.out.println("Where'd your cursor go??");
}

The Real Lesson of the Rhineland
William Kristol, one of the big kahunas of neoconservatism, has an op-ed in today's Washington Post criticizing the Obama administration for "accepting" Iran's alleged nuclear weapons program. (Of course, Kristol doesn't use the word "alleged.") I don't have time to respond to all his points, but his opening paragraph gives me an opportunity to repost one of my most popular columns from my early days at the Hazleton Standard-Speaker. Here's the prompt from Kristol:
In March 1936, Hitler occupied the Rhineland. The French prime minister, Leon Blum, denounced the act as "unacceptable." But France, Britain and the rest of the world accepted it. Years later, the French political thinker Raymond Aron commented, "To say that something is unacceptable was to say that one accepted it."
Comparing Iran to Nazi Germany plays fast and loose with history to a dangerous degree, as I explained in May 2008: Continue reading "The Real Lesson of the Rhineland"

So I know it has been a long time since I have posted anything, but that is because I have been super busy. We have been re-doing our living room. I like it better now. It looks more homey. At any rate, We wanted to have everything look more put together, so after buying the rug, we chose two colors from it (sage green and the yellow-tan color) and decided to paint our walls. We aren't quite finished yet, because we are going to paint the ceiling and all the trim, as well as add some crown moulding to where the wall and ceiling meet. Already it looks great, so I am pretty excited for when it is finally finished. Also, I don't have any of my pictures hung, but we will get to that soon. This is what it looks like thus far.
trying to teach The Boss to walk. I am working on the whole rolling over bit still, but walking is good too. He just has so much weight, it is a little difficult, but what can you do. He will be mobile soon enough.
Looks good! I know it's weird, but I actually LOVE painting. It's like getting an entire new room!
