Q: Is the canonical model structure on strict $\infty$-Cat left proper? Is the canonical (or Folk) model structure on the category of (strict) $\infty$-categories as constructed by Lafont, Métayer and Worytkiewicz in A folk model structure on omega-cat left proper ?
All its objects are fibrant, so it is right proper, but left properness is not clear at all.
I tend to think it is not, but the pushout of a cofibration in $\infty$-Cat are still a relatively well-behaved operation so it might very well be. In any case, I don't know explicit examples of pushouts showing it is not left proper.
I would also be interested in answers to this question for the folk model structure for 2 or 3-categories (either strict or semi-strict) as this would very probably shed some light on the question.
Motivation: I've stumbled on this for several reasons, but one of them is that the folk model structure has many interesting left Bousfield localizations. For example for each $n$ it can be Bousfield localized so that the fibrant objects of the localization are the $(\infty,n)$-category in the sense that all arrows of dimension $>n$ are weakly invertible (contrary to Ara–Métayer's "generalized Brown-Golanski" model structure in The Brown-Golasinski model structure on strict $\infty$-groupoids revisited,  where the arrows of dimension $>n$ are strictly invertible; whether these two things are Quillen equivalent is as far as I know an open problem).
But in order for the localization to be an actual Quillen model category (instead of a semi-model category) one need left properness.
I'm very curious to know if this localization is an example of a Bousfield localisation of non proper model structure (because those have surprising properties and I don't know really natural examples of this so far), or if it is actually a Quillen model structure (which would also be nice).

A: The canonical model structure on 2-Cat is left proper.  This is proven in Steve Lack's original paper A Quillen model structure for 2-categories that constructs this model category.  The proof involves a long calculation of the pushout of trivial fibrations along the generating cofibrations.
(Side note: many of us believe the adjective "folk" is not really appropriate for these model structures, except possibly in the case $n=1$.)

In India, widows are not invited to celebrations. Many years have passed since the Sati Sahagamanam has been banned, a ritual where widows were burnt alive with their husbands. Nevertheless, they are still viewed today as being such bad luck that most avoid interacting or associating with them.
So when a widow gets on a stage in front of thousands to light up the ceremonial lamp, something powerful indeed has happened. Because lighting this lamp, in India, is full of symbolic meaning. It is believed to repel misfortune. So having purposefully, a widow to perform publicly such a powerful act is cause for concern if not scandal.
Moreover, if this gesture is done with the manifest approval of the best-known Hindu leader around, then something like a revolution is definitely happening. This is exactly SOPAR-Bala Vikasa's intention: a real change in mindsets which will bring social justice to the 15 000 widows it has been working to empower for the past 10 years.
This year, the organization has invited religious leaders from all faiths to meet with widows and speak publicly on their behalf. All of them have responded positively, because there is no mention whatsoever, in any religious doctrine, discriminating against widows.
Believe it or not, it was taken in front of 4 000 women who were recently attending an annual conference on empowerment. These women are part of self-help groups set up by Bala Vikasa in many poor villages of India.
Sri. Gangu Upendra Sharma, appearing on the left, is the Hindu leader of the province of Telangana. He presides over 30 million souls. On Bala Vikasa's invitation, he has publicly defended widows in the last few months, calling for an end to an injustice that has no part in Hindu religion. Many other Christian and Muslim leaders have done the same.
The word is spreading. More and more widows dare to stand up for their rights and go against the superstitious beliefs like in this picture. They gain new supporters in all spheres of society. In many villages where SOPAR-Bala Vikasa is active, authorities are becoming more open to widows' participation in community life. Some of these women are breaking another taboo by putting back their bindi and jewellery. They are invited in public events like weddings and festivals. Some even join local committees.
SOPAR-Bala Vikasa has opened the way for these widows. The road ahead will still be arduous but they can now count on more and more supporters who are joining their voices to ask for social change saying in one united chorus : "Justice for widows is justice for all".

Family/
They settled it on the field.
October 30, 2016 — Leave a comment
My nephew Alex is in his senior year and he and his best friends are in the middle of a football playoff run. Nate and Alex both play receiver on offense and corner back on defense. Alex also serves as the punter and Nate returns kicks for the team. Colin is a lineman and Kyle, a star on the basketball team, serves as the unofficial mascot so that he can watch the games from the sidelines. They visited me in Lake Placid last summer and we climbed Seymour mountain and kayaked through the upper lock to visit Middle Saranac Lake. I asked about the upcoming football season during their visit and sensed that they did not expect the team to do well this year.
Football is big in the small village where I grew up and on game days there is no one more proud, or nervous, than the mother of a varsity team player. They belong to the "Grid Iron Mom" club and wear t-shirts with their son's numbers embroidered on the shoulders. They make pictures of their sons wearing football uniforms into small lawn signs and serve spaghetti at team dinners on the night before every game. Today they left town before the team did so they could hang good luck signs on an overpass and wave to the team bus as it passed below them on the interstate.
The team struggled early in the season and made the playoffs as the bottom seed after a four win and three loss regular season. They were expected to lose badly last week against the top seed but they played their best game of the year and won convincingly on a cold and rainy night in Greene.
I had business in New York this week and decided to delay my trip back to Baltimore so I could watch today's game. I arrived in Sidney late yesterday only to learn that the game might not be played. The other team, Harpursville-Afton, had played all season with an ineligible player and been disqualified after admitting the infraction. An appeal was pending and late yesterday the disqualification was overturned to the dismay of many of the football mothers, my sister-in-law included.
The game started at 3 this afternoon and was played at a neutral field in Endicott, about an hour's drive from Sidney. After the coin toss, Sidney received the opening kickoff. Alex caught the first pass of the day and Nate caught the second for a large gain. Quarterback Darren Smith's third pass was thrown under pressure, intercepted and returned 80 yards for a touchdown. He kept his cool, though, and would end the game with 28 completions for 445 passing yards, probably a school record.
On their next possession Sidney moved 63 yards down the field on long pass plays but was stopped on the 2 yard line. Harpursville-Afton's next drive started well, but Colin made a key stop and Sidney was back on offense. Harpursville-Afton had no answer for the Sidney passing game and Alex, Nate and the other receivers made long gains before Sidney's second drive was stopped at the 12 yard line. The first quarter ended with Sidney trailing 6 to zero.
Sidney finally scored on its second possession of the second quarter after a 59 yard screen pass play to Alex brought Sidney to the one yard line. Sidney scored on the next play and with 6:19 left in the first half the score was tied, 6 to 6.
Sidney almost always attempts an onside kick. It usually doesn't work and today's first attempt also failed but the Sidney defense made up for it. The opposing quarterback was pressured on third and long and intercepted. Sidney scored three plays later on a 46 yard touchdown pass. The two point conversion attempt failed but, with 5:09 left in the first half, Sidney took its first lead, 12 to 6.
Sidney's second onside kick worked but the drive ended with another interception on a long 4th down pass. Harpursville-Afton scored three plays later to take a 13 to 12 lead at the end of the first half.
Harpursville-Afton started the second half with a dominating run game, driving 75 years to score again and extend the lead to 8 points. Harpursville-Afton's attempt at an onside kick failed and Sidney answered by driving down the field with pass plays before scoring on a trick play with five minutes and forty-six seconds left in the third quarter.
Another Sidney attempt at an onside kick failed, but two plays later Alex intercepted a pass to end the Harpursville-Afton threat. Sidney's first play from scrimmage was a twenty-five yard pass to the 19 yard line. Another pass brought Sidney to the one yard line. Sidney took the lead on the next play, having scored 16 unanswered points in just over three minutes. Harpursville-Afton did not give up and tied the game again on its next possession. But Sidney returned the ensuing kickoff for a touchdown as time expired ending the third quarter.
The fourth quarter started with Sidney leading 34 to 28 but unable to recover an onside kick attempt. Harpursville-Afton fumbled again and Sidney failed to score on a fourth down play. There were seven minutes and twelve seconds remaining when Harpursville-Afton took over but another fumble put Sidney back on offense with less than five minutes remaining.
A 30 yard pass to Alex brought Sidney to the 20 yard line. Three minutes remained in the game. A play later Sidney was at the 2 yard line with a first down, goal to go. Harpursville-Afton refused to let Sidney score and seal the game and took over after four failed attempts by Sidney to advance the ball beyond the goal line. Harpursville-Afton had no time-outs remaining, and 95 yards to go with 65 seconds left in the game. After a long run by their quarterback they were at the Sidney 32 yard line. There were 22 seconds left. Another long run brought them to the 5 yard line with 8.2 seconds remaining. Though it seemed certain they would score, somehow they were stopped short on the next play and the clock counted down to zero with Sidney still ahead, 34 to 28. The moms in the Sidney stands went wild.
Alex finished the game with twelve catches for 179 yards, a pretty long punt and an interception and a fumble recovery. Nate had four long catches for 47 yards and some nice kickoff returns. Colin and the other lineman protected their quarterback well throughout the game and on defense stopped the run when it mattered most. It was a great game and I am glad I was able to be here to watch Alex and his friends play so well together.
I will leave it to others to debate whether or not Harpursville-Afton should have been allowed to play today. "Rules are rules," after all, and in fairness normally should be enforced. I suspect however that when they look back on this game many years from now, those who played in it will be glad that the team from Harpursville-Afton was allowed to compete and that Sidney made it to the finals by winning the game and not by way of a forfeit. They settled it on the field today and the better team won.
Best of luck next week Alex, Nate, Colin and Kyle and remember, above all else, to have fun and enjoy the game.

Open Leaders X
X factor: Populating the globe with open leaders
Open Leaders X, a growing program supported by Mozilla, aims to cultivate leaders who think and act openly—all over the world.
17 Dec 2019 Chad Sansing Feed
At Mozilla, we think of open leadership as a set of principles, practices, and skills people can use to mobilize their communities to solve shared problems and achieve shared goals. Open leaders design and build projects that empower others to collaborate within inclusive communities.
Learn about open organizations
Mozilla's Open Leaders program connects and trains leaders from around the world whose communities can help one another address the challenges and opportunities they face in creating a healthier internet, more trustworthy AI, and better online lives for all.
Starting small
Open Leaders began in 2016 with a face-to-face meeting between dozens of scientists interested in creating more open labs, datasets, methods, and communications. Their passion, questions, and insights helped shape "working open workshops," which quickly developed into an open leadership curriculum reaching hundreds of people online—from all across the open ecosystem.
What began as a small, collaborative inquiry into the nature and possibilities of open science has become a thriving community of open leaders helping one another infuse their projects and cultures with the principles and practices of openness.
While Mozilla staffers have historically organized the program, returning graduates have served as the experts, mentors, and community call co-hosts of each subsequent round of programming, contributing their time and expertise back to the program and its participants. They have also helped us at Mozilla better participate in discussions of engagement, value exchange, sustainability, power-sharing, care, and labor (among many, many other interwoven open topics).
We are humbled by the notion that a meeting of 25 like-minded people dedicated to opening their practice in science has become a network of hundreds of leaders working to connect their home communities and parts of the open ecosystem—like open art, campaigning, data, education, hardware, government, and software—with the internet health movement and the push for more trustworthy AI.
At Mozilla, we think of open leadership as a set of principles, practices, and skills people can use to mobilize their communities to solve shared problems and achieve shared goals.
As we tried to think of how best to bring core lessons from the Open Leaders program to the global MozFest community while also sustaining the program, we organized the most recent round of Open Leaders—the last we'll organize for now—as a train-the-trainer program. Working with program graduates, Mozilla staff and fellows, and leads from 10 different community projects, we co-designed Open Leaders X (OLx) to help community members run, connect, and sustain their own open leadership programs. We hoped that by distributing the development and ownership of Open Leaders across the open ecosystem and internet health movement, we could ensure its survival and strengthen its development through community co-ownership. This would allow each program to tailor itself to the needs, challenges, and opportunities each group faces.
We are so proud of the entire Open Leaders community and especially grateful to our OLx leads and contributors, who took the plunge with us and dove into this new train-the-trainer model. Rather than close the loop on Open Leaders, the decision to make it a community-driven program continues its upward spiral.
In October, we brought together nearly all 30 of our OLx leads at MozFest 2019, the momentous 10th anniversary of the festival. They launched their programs and issued their calls for applications, as well as their invitations to community members (like you!) to serve as mentors, experts, and guest speakers for each program. In 2020, these 30 leads and their 10 projects will welcome the next 200 open leaders into the community and the internet health movement.
We look forward to all the new connections we'll make together between these new Open Leaders cohorts and the burgeoning MozFest community. Our goal is to help people across these communities stay connected and engaged with both one another and the open, federated principles and practices of MozFest all year long.
We can't wait to collaborate, learn together and to discover what's next for Open Leaders, internet health, and more trustworthy AI.
You are invited to join this work and all of its challenges, learning, and fun! Watch the OLx launch party videos and find links to each program online!
You can also check out the OLx syllabus. You can even look further back at the most recent Open Leaders syllabi from round 7, both the project track and the culture track. You can visit Mozilla Pulse, as well, to keep track of each project and sign up for our newsletter to keep up with our latest programming.
We hope you'll join the Open Leaders community and visit us at the next MozFest! We can't wait to collaborate, learn together and to discover what's next for Open Leaders, internet health, and more trustworthy AI.

The Babe
(Back when I was 24, I pitched up at Time-Life Inc. in its 48-story box headquarters on Sixth Avenue & 50th Street, one more desperate job applicant, and was directed to Sports Illustrated where a kindly woman named Honor Fitzpatrick looked at my writing samples and gently discouraged me. "Your talent is for fiction," she said. "The only opening I have is for a fact-checker. I don't think you'd be happy doing that." Discouraging at the time, but in retrospect one is grateful. Profoundly grateful. A job in that box might've sent me down a path that turns into a deep trench, only to awaken at age 48, divorced, in a junk-ridden studio apartment on West 23rd where I sit night after night beating up on a clunky novel about the Midwest. Twenty years later, an editor at S.I. asked me to write something for them and of course I said yes — I took it as corporate capitulation — and wrote a piece of fiction.)
OUR LAKE WOBEGON TEAMS DID not do well last year, the Whippets with no pitching finishing dead last, the Leonards pitiful and helpless in the fall even with a 230-pounder to center the offensive line, and now it's basketball season again and already the boys are getting accustomed to defeat. When they ran out on the floor for the opener versus Bowlus (who won 58-21), they looked pale and cold in their blue and gold silks, and Buddy had the custodian turn up the heat, but it was too late. These boys looked like they were on death row, they trembled as their names were announced.
It's not defeat per se that hurts so much, we're used to that; it's the sense of doom and submission to fate that is awful. When the 230-pounder centered the ball and it stuck between his tremendous thighs and he toppled forward to be plundered by the Bisons, it was, I'm sure, with a terrible knowledge in his heart that he had this debacle coming to him and it was useless to resist. Two of the basketball players are sons of players on the fabled 1958 squad that was supposed to win the state championship and put our town on the map, but while we looked forward to that glorious weekend our team was eliminated in the first round by St. Klaus. None of us ever recovered from that disappointment. But do our children have to suffer from it, too?
As Harry (Can O'Corn) Knudsen wrote: "In the game of life we're playing, people now are saying that the aim of it is friendship and trust. I wish that it were true but it seems, for me and you that someone always loses and it's us."
Can O's inspiration came from playing eleven years for the Whippets, a humbling experience for anyone. The team is getting trounced, pummeled, whipped, and Dutch says, "Come on, guys, you're too tense out there, it's a game, go out there and have fun," and you think, This is fun? If this is fun, then sic your dogs on me, let them chew me for a while, that'd be pure pleasure. But out you trot to right field feeling heavyhearted and not even sure you're trotting correctly so you adjust the trot and your left foot grabs your right, you trip on your own feet, and down you go like a sack of potatoes and the fans in the stands are doubled up gasping and choking, and you have dirt in your mouth that you'll taste for years—is this experience good for a person?
Some fans have been led to wonder if maybe our Lake Wobegon athletes are suffering from a Christian upbringing that stresses the unworthiness angle and is light on the aspect of grace. How else would boys of sixteen and seventeen get the feeling that they were born to lose, if not in Bible class? And the uneasiness our boys have felt about winning—a fan can recall dozens of nights when the locals had a good first half, opened a nice lead, began to feel the opponents' pain, and sympathized and lightened up and wound up giving away their lunch. Does this come from misreading the Gospels?
Little Jimmy Wahlberg used to sit in the dugout and preach to the Whippets between innings, using the score of the ball game to quote Scripture; e.g., John 1:1: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God," or Matthew 4:4: "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God." That was fine except when he was pitching. God had never granted Little Jimmy's prayer request for a good curveball, so this fine Christian boy got shelled like a peanut whenever he took the mound, and one day Ronnie Decker came back to the bench after an eternal inning in centerfield and said, "First Revelations 13:0: Keep the ball down and throw at their heads."
Ronnie is Catholic, and they have more taste for blood, it seems. (Was there ever a Methodist bullfighter?) In St. Klaus, the ladies chant, "Make 'em sing and make 'em dance / Kick 'em in the nuts and step on their hands." The boys are ugly brutes with raw sores on their arms and legs and with little ball-bearing eyes who will try to hurt you. A gang of men stands by the backstop, drinking beer and talking to the umpire, a clean-cut Lutheran boy named Fred. Fred knows that, the week before, Carlson called a third strike on a Klausie, dashed to his car, the men rocked it and let the air out of the tires but couldn't pry the hood open and disconnect the spark plugs before he started up and rode away on the rims. Fred hopes to keep the fans happy.
For a Golden Age of Lake Wobegon Sports, you'd have to go back to the forties. The town ball club was the Lake Wobegon Schroeders, so named because the starting nine were brothers, sons of E. J. Schroeder. Nine big strapping boys with identical mops of black hair, big beaks, little chins, and so shy they couldn't look you in the eye, and E.J. was the manager, though the boys were such fine ballplayers, he only sat in the shade on a white kitchen chair and grumbled at them, they didn't require management.
E.J. was ticked off if a boy hit a bad pitch. He'd spit and curse and rail at him, and then R.J.'d go up and pound one out of the park (making the score 11-zip) and circle the bases and the old man'd say, "Boy, he put the old apple right down the middle, didn't he? Blind man coulda hit that one. Your gramma coulda put the wood on that one. If a guy couldn't hit that one out, there'd be something wrong with him, I'd say. Wind practically took that one out of here, didn't even need to hit it much"—and lean over and spit. When the Schroeders were winning every game, E.J. bitched about how they won.
"Why'dja throw to first for, ya dummy?"
"But it's the third out, Dad. We won the game."
"I know that. You don't have to point that out to me. Why'ntcha get the guy at third?"
"It was easier to go to first."
"Easier! Easier??!!"
The tenth son, Paul, had a gimpy right leg but still tried to please his dad and sat in the dugout and kept statistics (1.29, for example, and .452 and .992), but E.J. never looked at them. "That's history," he said, spitting, "I am interested in the here and now."
So his sons could never please him, and if they did, he forgot about it. Once, against Freeport, his oldest boy, Edwin Jim, Jr., turned and ran to the centerfe1d fence for a long long long fly ball and threw his glove forty feet in the air to snag the ball and caught the ball and glove and turned toward the dugout to see if his dad had seen it, and E.J. was on his feet clapping, but when he saw the boy look to him, he immediately pretended he was swatting mosquitoes. The batter was called out, the third out. Jim ran back to the bench and stood by his dad. E.J. sat chewing in silence and fnally he said, "I saw a man in Superior, Wisconsin, do that a long time ago but he did it at night and the ball was hit a lot harder."
What made this old man so mean? Some said it happened in 1924, when he played for the town team that went to Fort Snelling for the state championship and in the ninth inning, in the deepening dusk on Campbell's Bluff, Lake Wobegon down by one run, bases loaded and himself the tying run on third, when the Minneapolis pitcher suddenly collapsed and writhed around on the mound with his eyes bulging and face purple and vomiting and foaming and clawing and screeching, everyone ran to help him, including E.J., and he jumped up and tagged them all out. A triple play, unassisted. What a rotten trick, but there they stood, a bunch of rubes, and all the slickers howling and whooping their heads off, so he became mean, is one theory.
And he was mean. He could hit foul balls with deadly accuracy at an opponent or a fan who'd been riding him, or a member of the fan's immediate family, and once he fouled twenty-eight consecutive pitches off the home-plate umpire, for which he was thrown out of the Old Sod Shanty League.
"Go! Hence!" cried the ump.
"For foul balls?"
The umpire and the sinner were face to face. "Forever!" cried the ump. "Never again, so long as ball is thrown, shall thy face be seen in this park."
"Foul balls ain't against any rule that I know of!"
The umpire said, "Thou hast displeased me." And he pointed outerward and E.J. slouched away.
So he coached his boys. He never said a kind word to them, and they worked like dogs in hopes of hearing one, and thus they became great, mowing down the opposition for a hundred miles around. In 1946 they reached their peak. That was the year they disposed easily of fifteen crack teams in the Father Powers Charity Tournament, some by massacre, and at the closing ceremony, surrounded by sad little crippled children sitting dazed in the hot sun and holding pitiful flags they had made themselves, when E.J. was supposed to hand back the winner's check for $100 to Father Powers to help with the work among the poor, E.J. said, "Fat chance!" and shoved away the kindly priest's outstretched hand. That was also the year Babe Ruth came to town with the Sorbasol All-Star barnstorming team.
The Babe had retired in 1935 and was dying of cancer, but even a dying man has bills to pay, and so he took to the road for Sorbasol, and Lake Wobegon was the twenty-fourth stop on the trip, a day game on November 12. The All-Star train of two sleepers and a private car for the Babe backed up the sixteen-mile spur into Lake Wobegon, arriving at 10:00 A.M. with a blast of whistle and a burst of steam, but hundreds already were on hand to watch it arrive.
The Babe was a legend then, much like God is today. He didn't give interviews, in other words. He rode around on his train and appeared only when necessary. It was said that he drank Canadian rye whiskey, ate hot dogs, won thousands at poker, and kept beautiful women in his private car, Excelsior, but that was only talk.
The sleepers were ordinary deluxe Pullmans; the Excelsior was royal green with gold-and-silver trim and crimson velvet curtains tied shut—not that anyone tried to look in; these were proud country people, not a bunch of gawkers. Men stood by the train, their backs to it, talking purposefully about various things, looking out across the lake, and when other men straggled across the feld in twos and threes, stared at the train, and asked, "Is he really in there?" the firstcomers said, "Who? Oh! You mean the Babe? Oh, yes, I reckon he's here all right—this is his train, you know. I doubt that his train would go running around without the Babe in it, now, would it?" and resumed their job of standing by the train, gazing out across the lake. A proud moment for them.
At noon the Babe came out in white linen knickers. He looked lost. A tiny black man held his left arm. Babe tried to smile at the people and the look on his face made them glance away. He stumbled on a loose plank on the platform and men reached to steady him and noticed he was hot to the touch. He signed an autograph. It was illegible. A young woman was carried to him who'd been mysteriously ill for months, and he laid his big hand on her forehead and she said she felt something. (Next day she was a little better. Not recovered but improved.)
However, the Babe looked shaky, like a man who ate a bushel of peaches whole and now was worried about the pits. He's drunk, some said, and a man did dump a basket of empty beer bottles off the train, and boys dove in to get one for a souvenir—but others who came close to his breath said no, he wasn't drunk, only dying. So it was that an immense crowd turned out at the Wally (Old Hard Hands) Bunsen Memorial Ballpark: twenty cents per seat, two bits to stand along the foul line, and a dollar to be behind a rope by the dugout, where the Babe would shake hands with each person in that section.
He and the All-Stars changed into their red Sorbasol uniforms in the dugout, there being no place else, and people looked away as they did it (nowadays people would look, but then they didn't), and the Babe and his teammates tossed the ball around, then sat down, and out came the Schroeders. They ran around and warmed up and you could see by their nonchalance how nervous they were. E.J. batted grounders to them and hit one grounder zinging into the visitors' dugout, missing the Babe by six inches. He was too sick to move. The All-Stars ran out and griped to the ump but the Babe sat like he didn't know where he was. The ump was scared. The Babe hobbled out to home plate for the ceremonial handshakes and photographs, and E.J. put his arm around him as the crowd stood cheering and grinned and whispered, "We're going to kill ya, ya big mutt. First pitch goes in your ear. This is your last game. Bye, Babe." And the game got under way.
It was a good game, it's been said, though nobody remembers much about it specifically, such as the score, for example. The All-Stars were nobodies, only the Babe mattered to the crowd, and the big question was Would he play? He looked too shaky to take the field, so some said, "Suspend the rules! Why not let him just go up and bat! He can bat for the pitcher! Why not? It wouldn't hurt anything!" And nowadays they might do it, but back then you didn't pick up the bat unless you picked up your glove and played a position, and others said that maybe it wouldn't hurt anything but once you start changing the rules of the game for convenience, then what happens to our principles? Or do we change those, too?
So the game went along, a good game except that the Babe sat sprawled in the dugout, the little black man dipping cloths in a bucket of ice and laying them on the great man's head—a cool fall day but he was hot—and between innings he climbed out and waved to the fans and they stood and cheered and wondered would he come to bat. E.J. said to Bernie, "He'll bat all right, and when he comes, remember the first pitch: hard and high and inside."
"He looks too weak to get the bat off his shoulder, Dad. He looks like a breeze would blow him over. I can't throw at Babe Ruth."
"He's not sick, he's pretending so he don't have to play like the rest of us. Look at him: big fat rich New York son of a bitch, I bet he's getting five hundred dollars just to sit there and have a pickaninny put ice on him. Boy, I'd put some ice on him you-know-where, boy, he'd get up quick then, he'd be ready to play then. He comes up, I want you to give him something to think about so he knows we're not all a bunch of dumb hicks out here happy just to have him show up. I want him to know that some of us mean it. You do what I say. I'm serious."
It was a good game and people enjoyed it, the day cool and bright, delicious, smelling of apples and leather and woodsmoke and horses, blazed with majestic colors as if in a country where kings and queens ride through the cornfields into the triumphant reds and oranges of the woods, and men in November playing the last game of summer, waiting for the Babe, everyone waiting for the Babe as runs scored, hours passed, the sky turned red and hazy. It was about time to quit and go home, and then he marched out, bat in hand, and three thousand people threw back their heads and yelled as loud as they could. They yelled for one solid minute and then it was still.
The Babe stood looking toward the woods until everything was silent, then stepped to the plate and waved the bat, and Bernie looked at him. It was so quiet you could hear coughing in the crowd. Way to the rear a man said, "Merle, you get your hands off her and shut up now," and hundreds turned and shushed him. Then Bernie wound up. He bent way down and reached way back and kicked up high and the world turned and the ball flew and the umpire said, "BALL ONE!" and the catcher turned and said, "Be quiet, this doesn't concern you," and the umpire blushed. He knew immediately that he was in the wrong. Babe Ruth was not going to walk, he would sooner strike out and would do it himself, with no help from an umpire. So the umpire turned and walked away.
The Babe turned and spat and picked up a little dirt and rubbed his hands with it (people thought, Look, that's our dirt and he's putting it on his hands, as if the Babe might bring his own) and then stood in and waved the bat and Bernie bent way down and reached way back and kicked high and the world turned and the ball flew and the Babe swung and missed; he said huhhhnnnn and staggered. And the next pitch. He swung and cried in pain and the big slow curve slapped into the catcher's mitt.
It was so still, they heard the Babe clear his throat, like a board sliding across dirt. They heard Bernie breathing hard through his nose.
The people were quiet, wanting to see, hear, and smell everything and remember it forever: the wet fall dirt, the pale-white bat, the pink cotton candy and the gentlemen's hats, the smell of wool and the glimmer of a star in the twilight, the touch of your dad's big hand and your little hand in it. Even E.J. was quiet, chewing, watching his son. The sun had set beyond right field, darkness was settling, you had to look close to see—Bernie took three steps toward home and pointed at the high outside corner of the plate, calling his pitch, and the Babe threw back his head and laughed four laughs. (People were glad to hear he was feeling better, but it was scary to hear a man laugh at home plate; everyone knew it was bad luck.) He touched the corner with his bat. Bernie climbed back on the mound, he paused, he bent down low and reached way back and kicked real high and the world turned and the ball flew and the Babe swung and it cracked and the ball became a tiny white star in the sky. It hung there as the Babe went around the bases in his famous Babe Ruth stride, the big graceful man trotting on slim little feet, his head down until the roar of the crowd rose like an ocean wave on the prairie and he looked up as he turned at third, he smiled, lifted his cap, strode soundlessly across home plate looking like the greatest ballplayer in the history of the world. The star was still in the sky, straight out due northwest of the centerfield fence, where he hit it. The ball was never found, though they searched for it for years.
"Did you see that?" your dad says, taking your hand.
You say, "Yes, I did."
Even E.J. saw it and stood with the rest and he was changed after that, as were the others. A true hero has some power to make us a gift of a larger life. The Schroeders broke up, the boys went their own ways, and once they were out of earshot, E.J. sat in the Sidetrack Tap and bragged them up, the winners he produced and how they had shown Babe Ruth a pretty good game. He was tolerated but Babe Ruth was revered. He did something on that one day in our town that made us feel we were on the map of the universe, connected somehow to the stars, part of the mind of God. The full effect of his mighty blow diminished over time, of course, and now our teams languish, our coaches despair. Defeat comes to seem the natural course of things. Lake Wobegon dresses for a game, they put on their jock-straps, pull on the socks, get into the colors, they start to lose heart and turn pale—fear shrivels them.
Boys, this game may be your only chance to be good, he might tell them. You might screw up everything else in your life and poison the ones who love you, create misery, create such pain and devastation it will be repeated by generations of descendants. Boys, there's plenty of room for tragedy in life, so if you go bad, don't have it be said that you never did anything right. Win this game.

Azunna, Chief
Chief Azunna fought for the establishment of the Catholic Church in Okpala parish.
He was born in 1908 in a small village called Umuogbe in Ngo Okpala Local Government Area of Imo State of Nigeria. He was a polygamist.
In 1939, Chief Azunna met the white Irish fathers who paid him a visit at his house. Through an interpreter they discussed with him how to establish a Catholic Church in Okpala. Even though he had not attended school and was not literate, he managed to cooperate with the Irish fathers using interpreters.
After these discussions with the early missionaries, he donated his land to them in 1938 to build St. Peter Claver's Seminary. The seminary was built in 1939 under Rev. Fr. Mohan's supervision.
Chief Azunna's generosity did not stop there. He later expanded his land gift by many acres so that St. Finnber's Primary School and Teachers Training College could be built in 1944. Teachers Training College was later transferred to Azaraegbelu in the present Owerri North Local Government Area of Imo state.
In 1944, Chief Azunna worked with Rev. Fr. Mohan, and Rev. Fr. Michael Dohaney to establish many other stations in Okpala parish such as Holy Rosary Catholic Church, Achara, St. Patrick's Umuohiekabi, St. Paul's Ibokwe, St. Mary's Alulu, St. Paul's Ntu, and C. K. C. Amala etc.
After going deep into Christianity, Chief Azunna chose to marry only his first wife among his several wives.
Today the Catholic Church has gained so much ground in Okpala that St. Peter's Claver Seminary Okpala, established in 1939, is now famous and has trained many Catholic bishops like Mark Unegbu, Cardinal Ekandem, and Anthony Obinna as well as other bishops, priests, and dignitaries.
Chief Azunna died in 1989 and was buried by the Okpala Catholic parish. He is remembered today at St. Peter Claver's Seminary Okpala where a building was named "Azunna House" after him.

Iwan Andriejewicz Ostermann (ur. 1725, zm. 1811) – rosyjski polityk i dyplomata.

Życiorys
Jego ojcem był minister Andriej Ostermann (1686-1747), gdy popadł on w niełaskę, jego syna Iwana przeniesiono z Gwardii Cesarskiej do wojska regularnego, dopiero od roku 1757 Iwan trafił do służb dyplomatycznych. Był ambasadorem Rosji w Paryżu a potem w Sztokholmie, gdzie udało mu się zdobyć wpływ nad tak nieufnego władcę jak Gustaw III. Przez lat 16 piastował urząd kanclerza Imperium Rosyjskiego (1781-97), czyli najwyższy urząd w państwie.

W 1780 roku powstała tzw. Liga Zbrojnej Neutralności wymierzona przeciw gwałceniu przez brytyjskie statki nietykalności okrętów państw neutralnych w wojnie Wielkiej Brytanii, przeciw jej koloniom w Ameryce i Francji. Pierwszym ogniwem ligi była konwencja rosyjsko-duńska 28 czerwca (kalendarz juliański)/9 lipca 1780 (kalendarz gregoriański). Kolejną konwencję 21 lipca (kalendarz juliański)/1 sierpnia 1780 (kalendarz gregoriański) podpisali w Sankt Petersburgu szwedzki ambasador Johan Fredrik von Nolcken i Iwan Ostermann jako kanclerz rosyjski.

Ergenekon: A Trial Against Democracy and Freedom of Expression
This is the account of EFJ Observer, Patrick Kamenka, who attended the Ergenekon trial in Turkey's Silivri Jail, just outside Istanbul, on Monday:
Heavy sentences were pronounced
against 21 Turkish journalists (one of them received a life sentence) involved
in the Ergenekon case by a court which met inside Silivri's jail (60 km west of
Istanbul) compound on Monday 5 August.
Tuncay Özkan, former owner of
BizTV, was sentenced to heavy life imprisonment and Mutafa Balbay, journalist
with the Cumhuriyet opposition newspaper and an MP (elected in jail) was
condemned to 34 years and eight months. Yalçin Kücük was sentenced to 22
years and six months.
These three journalists have already been in jail in
Silivri, the biggest prison in Europe with 11,000 detainees, for five years,
along with four other colleagues. Only one of them was released: Mehmet
Haberal, due to a health problem. Dozens of others colleagues, who were
released during pending trial, were also sentenced.
heavy security measures were in place for the trial. The families of the defendants were not allowed to
attend it. Hundreds of police and gendarmes (jandarma), armoured cars
and water cannon trucks prevented families and demonstrators from approaching
the court to support the 275 defendants in the case, which started in 2007
after a discovery of arms in Istanbul.
Police and gendarmes forces were
heavily equipped with helmets, plastic shields and clubs. They used tear gas
and water cannons to dismiss a demonstration by thousands of protesters near
a main road going to Silivri. To prevent any unauthorised people from
coming close to the court, double rows of fences were placed at the entry of
the Silivri zone. On the roofs near the jail zone stood police with guns to prevent
any "terrorist attack" from what officials said. Even a helicopter observe the
scene which had been transformed into a real war zone.
To enter the court you had to
receive a special accreditation card that was a different colour, whether you
were a journalist, lawyer or MP. No electronic technology was allowed and everyone
had to be checked in like they were in an airport. The lawyers refused to have
a body search as was planned. Ercan Ipecki denounced the fact that a lot of
Turkish journalists could not enter the court to attend the trail.
Inside the court room, the
atmosphere was very tense. The trial, which was planned to start at 9am, did
not begin until 12.30 when the judges started to read the long list of
sentences.
Before the beginning of the trial,
the defendants entered the room with warm applause from the audience
(journalists, lawyers, and 50 MPs, mainly from CHP (leftist opposition party).
Mustafa Balbay stated
strongly in the court before the sentences: "We don't accept the court
decision, this decision belongs to them."
He added: "Don't let them do what
they want, be prepared for a warm autumn," and in a loud voice he
declared that the defendants "started to feel free after 31
May," the start of numerous
demonstrations in Gesi park and Taksim square and elsewhere in Turkey against AKP
leading party and the Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
He also asserted that the
government "is afraid of the fear they have created themselves," before thanking
the audience for their "support and solidarity".
Responding to this speech,
lawyers and some MPs started to shout: "We are all the soldiers of Mustafa
Kemal Atatürk".
When the judges finally proceeded
and started the reading of the sentences, dozens of lawyers decided to leave
the court room, denying the fact that the president of the court was delivering
the sentences in the "name of the people".
The trial ended at 3.30pm with 16
life sentences given out, among them the former Turkish chief of staff, general
Ilker Basbug. He left the court room in a sign of protest just after the
sentence was read.
Ercan Ipecki, president of TGS,
EFJ representative at the trial, Patrick Kamenka, and others journalists were
interviewed by the Turkish media and strongly condemned the severe sentences
given to the journalists.
Speaking on behalf of the EFJ in
a television interview, Kamenka stated: "This Monday was a dark day for
democracy in Turkey and freedom of speech. We are here to express
solidarity with our Turkish colleagues who have been condemned in an
unfair political trial.
He continued: "We urge all
journalists and their unions in Europe to put pressure on the Turkish government
to stop these continuous attacks on democracy and journalists. We will campaign
with the IFJ and EFJ and support TGS' fight until there is not one journalist
in jail in this country".
Immediately after the trial,
Ercan Ipecki sent an appeal to the EFJ/IFJ to ask affiliates to condemn
the severe sentences by sending messages to the Turkish Prime Minister's office.

Surgeon Simulator 2013 – komputerowa gra symulacyjna wydana 19 kwietnia 2013 roku przez Bossa Studios na platformy Microsoft Windows, OS X oraz Linux. Podstawowa wersja gry zawierająca jedną misję została stworzona w ciągu dwóch dni na potrzeby konkursu "Global Game Jam".

Rozgrywka
Celem gry jest zakończone sukcesem przeszczepienie organów pacjenta. Gracz steruje ręką chirurga w taki sposób, że każdym palcem jego dłoni porusza się osobno. Na sali operacyjnej znajdują się przyrządy medyczne takie jak skalpel czy strzykawka, które mogą być wykorzystane podczas zabiegu. Każda udana operacja jest oceniana w zależności od stopnia wykrwawienia się pacjenta i czasu, jaki upłynął podczas operacji.

Odbiór gry
Gra została pozytywnie oceniona, zyskując średnią ocen 71/100 na Metacritic. Magazyn Forbes napisał "nawet ludzie którzy stworzyli tę grę nie potrafią w nią dobrze grać, ale w tym wypadku jest to jej zaletą". Według Ars Technica "Surgeon Simulator 2013 jest prawdopodobnie najlepszą grą komputerową w historii". Do 2015 sprzedano ponad dwa miliony egzemplarzy z grą.

Time for Change is a project set up by Shelter Scotland and co-designed by people who have been homeless. Set up in summer 2016, our Glasgow Time for Change project has already achieved a lot including:
supporting projects such as the Glasgow Participation Project
taking part in events such as the Housing Hustings
providing information and experiences to inform policy work around gatekeeping
Our collective experiences highlighted how many people were unaware of their right to help from their local council and one of our key aims is to support people and change this. Volunteer mentors are trained to take housing advice and support to the community and help those with the most complex needs.
The success of the project in Glasgow led to new projects being established in Dundee, Aberdeen and Edinburgh.
The Time for Change projects in Dundee and Aberdeen are funded by The Social Innovation Fund which is supported by the European Social Fund (ESF) and Scottish Government. Working In partnership with the Institute for Social Policy, Housing and Equalities Research (I-SPHERE) at Heriot-Watt University, the project will:
Establish a network of volunteer peer mentors and provide training and support
Evaluate the impact of the project on peer volunteers and those helped by the project to establish the effectiveness of the model
Review existing services and peer mentor schemes
If you have lived experience of homelessness, find out more about how you can get involved by informing our work

A woman who recently gave birth is fuming after learning that the hospital allowed a 15-year-old schoolgirl, assist in a Cesarean section delivery of her newborn baby, according to news media reports.
A Swedish hospital has apologized to the woman after the incident was publicized.
The new mother read about the incident in her local newspaper, but could not believe that the story was about her delivery.
According to British news media, the mother did not believe that the wizard that helped her delivery could have been a child, since nobody in the hospital had told her about the incident. The truth was revealed when the surgeon called the parents and said that she had allowed a schoolgirl to help.
The student, 15-years-old, was presented to the new mother as a medical student and actually wielded a scalpel during surgery, which took place at Malmo University Hospital. The girl is a relative of the surgeon.
Officials later admitted that the girl had been allowed to participate in a second birth and had "overshadowed the surgeon during a series of operations."
The mother told the newspaper that she thought the girl "was a medical student practicing patient contact, something that is done at the beginning of their medical training." She added: "This is a teaching hospital, so one must be prepared to deal with students."


Queens, kings, villians and dramatic plot twists, a tale almost as old as time. The book of Esther, however, is not just a tale but an historical account of events that keeps the first time reader on the edge of their seat. The twisted plot of evil Haman to annihilate the Jewish people becomes unraveled as Queen Esther calls people to fast and pray at the urging of her wise Uncle Mordechai. The story is a powerful reminder that God has a covenant people, and he will save them from their enemies.
Established in Israel for such a time as this, the team at the Support Center in Afula help Jewish immigrants celebrate Purim.

A: This "codes" is called Json Object and in your case it's string encoded so you can decode it into a PHP object something like:
$obj = json_decode($response);

and you can access it's attributes like this:
echo $obj->JobId;

furthermore you can refer to the PHP documentation json_decode

A: They are called JSON Strings. It's a lightweight data-interchange format.
To decode the JSON string in PHP use json_decode. Like this,
$json_object=json_decode($jsonString);

It will return you PHP Object by default and you just need to read the Object properties. Like this,
echo $json_object->json_key;
