Barça Lassa – Unicaja: Tough night at the Palau (94-83)
Pesic's team won a very tight match thanks to a solid defence and success in the triple
09:00PM Sunday 27 Jan
Barça Lassa had a tough time overcoming Unicaja at the Palau Blaugrana, but did so (94-83) thanks to their defensive intensity and success in attack. The most outstanding players for the hosts were Pangos (16 points and 7 assists), Séraphin (13 points and 6 rebounds) and Singleton (13 points, 9 rebounds and 2 blocks).
Barça were very focused on the game and, thanks to the triple, they went 10-0 up in the first three minutes. Little by little the opponents got back into the game, and tied the match (15-15, min 9). A basket from Séraphin and a block from Singleton in the last play of the first quarter left Barça ahead (17-15).
The French pivot contributed points, rebounds and drive which saw Barça up by 30-23, however, regular turnover ball meant that the visitors were quickly back in the game, and even went ahead (34-36, min 17). At half-time, the scores were level (41-41).
Excellent defence
Tomic and Pangos were key after the break, the pair easing Barça ahead by 66-59 at the end of the third quarter.
The last quarter began with a constant exchange of baskets, but then the excellent defence from Pesic's side gave them the platform for victory at just the right time. In the final moments there was no time for any surprises and the game ended with a home win, 94-83.

Design>Power and Cooling
Power Surpasses Cooling as Top Concern
The availability and price of electricity has become the number one concern for data center operators, according to Gartner surveys.
Rich Miller | Dec 05, 2007
The availability and price of electricity has become the number one concern for data center operators, according to surveys at least week's Gartner Data Center Conference in Las Vegas. Power moved ahead of its close cousin, data center cooling, as the number one pain point for attendees at last week's event at the MGM Grand. Forty seven percent of respondents cited power availability as their top concern, an increase of 14 points from a similar survey last year. "Insufficient cooling," which topped the 2006 survey with 35 percent, slipped to second at 27 percent.
"We are in the midst of a crisis," said Gartner Research VP Paul McGluckin. "The cost of power will absolutely become a huge issue. Even if you don't have to pay for the power, the power costs being visible (in the enterprise) will have implications."
McGluckin led a panel outlining Gartner's research on power and cooling along with Gartner Managing VP David Cappuccio, who said relief on these issues is not imminent.
"During the next several years an increasing number of data centers will have insufficient power and cooling capacity to meet the demands of high-density equipment," said Cappuccio. "By 2011 there will be products and facilities engineering innovations that will significantly mitigate this problem."
In the meantime, data center operators will cope by continuing to expand their infrastructure. Thirty seven percent of attendees at the session said they would be relocating from their current data centers to another facility, while 33 percent will expand an existing site, and 16 percent will renovate their current facility. Just 5 percent of respondents said they would outsource their data center operations to a third-party provider.
An audience poll on cooling strategies found that 48 percent were using computer room air conditioning (CRAC) units; 26 percent were combining CRAC units with specialty cooling such as in-row, in-rack and liquid cooling; and eight percent were using entirely specialty cooling.
The Gartner analysts outlined a number of strategies for mitigating power and cooling issues. McGluckin noted the importance of using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to model temperatures and air flow within your data center. "There was a time when this was an esoteric gearhead kind of thing, but not anymore," he said. "It's well worth the cost to identify potential hot spots ahead of time. If your consultant doesn't think it's necessary, get another vendor who will assist you with this."
McGluckin also recommended reviewing data center temperature set points. "Don't make your data center into a meat locker. Most of us are running the data center too cold. Computers, by and large, can be run substantially warmer, sometimes 3-4 degrees warmer, than they are today. This is low-hanging fruit. You don't need special cooling or to redesign your data center."

This week President Obama signed an executive order requiring federal contractors to allow their employees to earn and use paid sick days. Estimates suggest that between 694,000 and 1,053,000 employees of federal contractors will benefit from additional paid sick leave. A new Economic Snapshot shows that access to paid sick leave remains vastly unequal for private workers, with only 26 percent of the lowest wage workers earning paid leave as opposed to 87 percent of the highest wage workers.

Is the Arab World ready for a collaborative economy? This Syrian student says yes.
Aline Mayard • 14 May, 2013
Would you be ready to carpool? Lend your house or your hammer to someone you don't know? Give a few hours of your time to teach someone? Chip in someone's project? If yes, then you're in for a treat, as the collaborative economy is coming to the Middle East!
Wamda's contributors have been torn about whether the Middle East is ready for a sharing economy- Ahmad Majid said that there are endless possibilities for sharing in Saudi Arabia, while Gulay Ozkan noted that sharing startups in the Middle East will have to innovate to mesh with local culture.
Yet if you believe that a sharing economy is still just a Western boho's dream, have a look at what Ahmad Sufian Bayram and his friends in Syria have to say. They recently set up the first MENA branch of OuiShare, a global group dedicated to supporting the collaborative economy.
They may be in the midst of a civil war, but they're ready to launch a new type of revolution in the Arab world.
What is the collaborative economy, exactly?
In a collaborative economy, people share their expertise, time, space and goods, both online or offline, in order to save money, maximize their use of resources, and connect.
Over the last 10 years, the movement has gotten traction globally, with the rise of open source, crowdsourcing, crowdfunding, collaborative consumption, and maker and hacker communities.
A year ago, a few French activists created OuiShare, to support the collaborative economy, first in Paris, then in London, Brussels, Barcelona, Rome, Madrid, Munich, Berlin and more. Bayram joined the open network earlier this year.
"Arab countries are no different than other countries."
This is what Bayram keeps repeating. A 22 years-old student in business administration, he believes this "shift in paradigm" is happening in the Arab world as well, as people increasingly care about maximizing benefits rather than maximizing profits.
Bayram believes that the Middle East is ready for a sharing economy movement. "We have a technology revolution here in the Middle East, we have communities, we trust each other, and we have the ability to share, but also we have a huge recession and a lack of money," he says. "We have the abilities and we have the need."
What's more, people are already collaborating without realizing it. "In Beirut, people share taxis to reduce costs, find taxis faster and reduce the traffic."
In Syria, people share electricity generators, and more than 38,000 people joined a Facebook group to sell their used items. In Morocco, Avito.ma, a classified ads website have become the second most-visited website. Hackerspaces and coworking spaces are on the rise. In Egypt, Palestine, and Lebanon people are using crowdsourcing to get informed about traffic through services like Wasselni or Ma2too3a.
It's still early days, however. Swaphood encouraged people to swap their items locally, but only nine items have been listed in the first quarter of 2013. Arabrooms.com wanted to let people rent each others' apartments, but seems to have pivoted into a traditional hotel booking service.
Beyram believes it's just a matter of time. "Once people see the benefits, they make it happen."
Evangelizing in the Arab World
In the meantime, he's turned into a one-man evangelist for the collaborative economy, blogging and posting videos in English and Arabic to explain the concept.
Last week, on May 11th, he organized the first OuiShare event (shown below) in the Arab world, in Damascus, with the help of Wikilogia.
Following this event, Bayram created a Facebook group to foster debates and discussion.
"People have to start, then the government will give it more power."
Bayram isn't stopping with Syria; he's now creating vanguard teams in major Arab cities to establish the vision and spread community values.
His country might be in the midst of a civil war, but the Syrian student believes that governments throughout the region could one day play a role in supporting collaborative consumption, by giving legal incentives.
Now, he's planning future events in Beirut, Cairo and Amman, and hopefully in the Maghreb or Gulf, once he finds sponsors- or crowdfunders.

This is one of several images of owls given to poet and scholar Walter Strachan (1903-1994) by Abram Krol (born 1919). An engraver, painter and tapestry designer, Krol came from a Polish Jewish family, although he moved to France to study in 1938. His father was an authority on the Talmud and Krol's early familiarity with the Jewish Old Testament remained an important influence in his work, not just in the subject matter he chose to illustrate, but in stylistic elements which derive from hieratic art. His work combines realism with decorative effect and pictorial symbolism similar to that found in Egyptian hieroglyphics. A famous work by him is Cantique des Cantiques (Song of Songs) which he published in Paris in 1952. He also illustrated a medieval Bestiaire, the original Lyon 1488 edition by Barthelemy de Glanvil as translated by Jehan Corbichon. He published this in Paris in 1955.
Abram Krol's work is characterised by contrast of line and texture. He employed an interesting technique of colour etching and aquatint from shaped plates. His early experimentation with this technique involved making a cut out (detouré) image shape so that the subject when printed was surrounded by a slight relief. This developed to cut-out shapes superimposed onto flat colour wood-engravings with touches of aquatint. The method of aquatint produces a textured area of uniform tone. The printing plate is covered by a granulated acid-resistant resin so that the acid eats into it between the grains. The area eaten by the acid is then inked to produce the tone. For colour aquatints, more than one plate might be needed.
Walter Strachan was fascinated by the art of the book. His interest was inspired by a visit to an exhibition of artists' books at the National Gallery in London in May 1945. In due course he wrote many articles on the subject, as well as a major reference work, The Artist and the Book in France (published 1969); he also encouraged successive Keepers of the National Art Library at the V&A "to buy them for England." To this end he visited France every year, to meet the artists, and acquired proof pages to illustrate his articles and to show to potential purchasers of the books, including the V&A. Over the years he amassed a collection of images of owls; some of these were illustrations from livres d'artistes, and others were designed especially for him as gifts or greetings. The collection of owls began with a visit to the artist Roger Chastel (1897-1981) in 1952, where he witnessed the printing of Le Bestiaire de Paul Eluard. In a subsequent article ("Genesis and Growth of a Collection", for Connoisseur, 1972) he explained: "My article on Chastel's Bestiaire had the happy result of bringing me a special print on Auvergne paper of the owl which I had admired in the book. Contacts in the art-world of Paris are close and friendly, and I was marked down as an owl-man, in consequence of which I have gradually been given dedicated owl prints and originals in every medium from pen and ink to enamel…"

This forms part of a collection of prints, drawings and paintings of owls bequeathed to the V&A by Walter Strachan (1903-1994). Strachan, a scholar and collector of Livres d'Artistes, became friendly with a large number of artists, who, on hearing that he had a fondness for owls, began sending him images to add to his collection.

If you think Courtney Love's relative silence lately means she's fallen off the face off the earth, you're out of luck. In fact, she's been busy with stuff other than music these days, like art and, um, figuring out what happened to that missing airplane.
The erstwhile Mrs. Cobain posted a detailed (well, we're guessing for her anyway) image on Facebook of where she think Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 may have went down during its disappearing act on March 8.
"I'm no expert," she begins, understating a fact known to millions. "But up close this does look like a plane and an oil slick … prayers go out to the families #MH370 and its like a mile away Pulau Perak, where they 'last' tracked it 5°39'08.5"N 98°50'38.0"E but what do I know?"
Love used the crowdsourced Tomnod tool to "find" the missing aircraft. If her theory turns out to be true, it will be her most significant contribution to mankind since 'Live Through This' 20 years ago.

Silver Star Story Touch' Receives Massive 3.0 Update With New Options, Music, and More – TouchArcade
It's been a little while since the last update to SoMoGa's fine port of Lunar, Lunar: Silver Star Story Touch ($9.99). It's been a longer while since its last major update, version 2.0. Four years and eight years, respectively. Well, late last week SoMoGa suddenly dropped an astounding update to the game, bringing it up to a spiffy 3.0 with a ton of great features. Let's go through all of it, shall we?
So, Lunar: Silver Star Story Touch. The only way to buy the English version of Lunar in any form these days shy of diving into the second-hand stores or picking up that PSP remake. Even SEGA couldn't swing a deal to bring the English version of the SEGA-CD original to its Genesis Mini 2. That makes this a rather important app, and one that I certainly wouldn't want to see disappear. Publisher SoMoGa isn't exactly active on the App Store, with just this game and Vay ($0.99) in its catalog. With literal presidential terms passing between updates at times, it wouldn't be weird to expect them to throw in the towel and head home.
But no! Glorious update! Amazing update! In the category of graphics, the game now runs at 60 fps on all compatible devices. Excellent. Widescreen support has been improved, and a number of effects that haven't been working right since the original Saturn version are now properly implemented. The audio quality has been improved, and you can now choose between the PSP and Saturn versions of the soundtrack. You can also adjust audio levels separately for various components in case you want the music to be quieter than the voices or something.
Tons of new Bluetooth controllers are supported now, and the settings can actually be accessed in-app rather than having to go through your device's Settings app. Yes, this app is that old. You can now speed up gameplay in both battles and exploration, allowing you to move through the game more quickly. You can now hide the touch controls and switch to the classic UI in case you're playing with a controller and want a more vintage feel, and you can switch between two different difficulty settings. The easier one lines up with the Japanese Saturn version, while the harder one matches the American PlayStation version done by Working Designs.
In essence, you can pretty much Saturn this port up or down as you prefer. And that is awesome. The only casualty here seems to be the ability to play the game in Portrait mode. If the feature is still there, I must have missed it. If it is gone, that is somewhat unfortunate. Sometimes I just like to play Lunar with one hand while I'm sword-fighting with Mikhail with my other hand. But it's a small price to pay for all of these fine improvements. The app has been completely rejuvenated, giving me renewed hope that if I nag SoMoGa enough we will get a port of Lunar: Eternal Blue someday. You have given a Nall a cookie here, my friends.
You'll need a device that uses an A10 CPU or better to use this new version of the game. That means an iPhone 7 or up, or an Apple TV 4K, that sort of thing. Provided you do (and I hope you do), you can update your game or go ahead and buy it if you haven't before and dig into a fancy-pants version of one of the finest RPGs of the 16-bit era. Seriously, though. Lunar: Eternal Blue. Conk whoever you have to on the head to make it happen.

Norwegians assist Kinniya tsunami affected families
[TamilNet, Friday, 17 March 2006, 00:52 GMT]
Twenty permanent houses constructed with the funds collected by Norwegians in their country under the sponsorship of Norwegian Solidarity Organization were handed over to the tsunami affected families in Naduottu, a village in Kinniya division in Trincomalee district Wednesday afternoon. Each 500 sq.ft house was constructed at a cost of five hundred thousand rupees, sources said.
Several Norwegians raised money in their country to assist tsunami hit Kinniya residents following an appeal made by Mr.Mubarak Ali who was born in Kinniya and later immigrated to Norway for the last twenty years. He is the eldest son of late Mr.M.E.H.Mohamed Ali who represented the Muttur electorate, which included Kinniya division in the Trincomalee district in the parliament for several years.
Representatives of Norwegian Solidarity who helped for the cause arrived in Colombo beginning of this week and later visited Kinniya Wednesday in the company of Mr.Mubarak Ali and participated in the handing over of houses to the tsunami affected families. Mr.Erik F.Brede, Counselor of the Norwegian embassy in Sri Lanka accompanied them.
Money collected by several Norwegians was channeled through the Norwegian Solidarity, a non-governmental organization and the implementing partner was the Eastern Forum For Resources Development (EFFORD), sources said.

Linda Hicks to resign as BCPS superintendent
Board President Todd Stagner said Hicks is stepping down
Linda Hicks to resign as BCPS superintendent Board President Todd Stagner said Hicks is stepping down Check out this story on battlecreekenquirer.com: http://bcene.ws/1JcnLNa
Safiya Merchant, Battle Creek Enquirer Published 3:21 p.m. ET July 20, 2015 | Updated 9:42 p.m. ET July 20, 2015
Battle Creek Public Schools Superintendent Linda Hicks is resigning, the school board president said Monday night.(Photo: Enquirer file)
Linda Hicks will resign as superintendent of Battle Creek Public Schools, Board of Education President Todd Stagner said at Monday's board meeting.
Her resignation will be effective Friday, he said.
"The board and Dr. Hicks have mutually agreed that Dr. Hicks will tender and the board will accept her resignation as superintendent, effective July 24, 2015, in order to pursue other professional opportunities," Stagner said Monday. "The board would like to thank Dr. Hicks for her service, and the district wishes her luck on all future endeavors."
The announcement came at the beginning of the meeting, which Hicks did not attend. Her evaluation as superintendent for the 2014-15 school year was on the agenda to be discussed at Monday's meeting after it had been postponed twice earlier this year.
Stagner told the Enquirer that Assistant Superintendent Kimberly Parker-DeVauld has been serving as interim superintendent while Hicks has been on vacation.
"She's continuing on in that role at this point, we haven't discussed that," Stagner said. When asked if the district will be conducting a search for a new leader, Stagner said their next step has not been processed yet.
Stagner could not provide further information on the resignation. Efforts by the Enquirer to reach Hicks for comment Monday night were unsuccessful.
Hicks was hired in spring 2010 to replace Charles Coleman, who retired and later became head of Joliet, Ill., Public Schools.
At the time, Hicks said "The sky's the limit when it comes to options" on improving the district budget. Improvements to draw students back to the district were as much an option as building closures, she said.
Hicks and the board disagreed this spring over Hicks' proposal to close two elementary schools to reduce the district's $2.4 million budget shortfall for the 2015-16 school year. The board delayed a decision on Hicks' proposal to shutter Coburn and LaMora Park, then elected to only close Coburn.
After the board's decision, Hicks said "The next step now is for me to meet with the board president and get some insight and direction about how we're going to head out in this process because we need to be aligned and connected and so when I make a recommendation, their support for it going forward, we need to make sure that we're communicating together."
Springfield Middle School teacher Joe Ratti, a past president of the Battle Creek Education Association, said Monday he thought Hicks had some good ideas. He also said staff morale went up at the beginning of her term as superintendent.
However, as time went on, he said he thinks staff morale declined. Discipline of teachers was also harsher under her reign than previous years, Ratti added.
"I think that staff morale had dropped from a bargaining standpoint and from teacher discipline and some of the things that I was involved in," Ratti said.
Ratti said Hicks "had issues being a people person" and that she was directly involved in many aspects of the district.
"...One of the things with bargaining is everything had to go through her," Ratti said. "Discipline went through her, bargaining went through her, and so there wasn't really any bargaining. It was her way or else and that's not bargaining. ... Some of the initiatives that we wanted to do to try to get kids back into the district, everything had to go through her. And I think she needed to put more trust in the people she works with."
Ratti was also a part of the staff committee that had recommended Urbandale and Fremont schools to close during this year's school closure conversation. Hicks' recommendation -- LaMora Park and Coburn -- was completely different.
"It's a slap in the face for the teachers to give their recommendation and then for her to totally disregard it," he said.
LaMora Park teacher Brandi Gillson said Hicks had started off with an "open-door policy" but "then it became nobody wanted to talk to her out of fear of (we could) get in trouble."
"I came down a couple of times with other staff members talking to her and she was very open and receptive," Gillson said. "It's just as time went on, it became more and more of a 'she didn't want to talk' -- or at least she gave off the air that she didn't want to be bothered with things."
Bonita Keeler, whose five grandchildren went to Coburn before it closed and have been split up between Ann J. Kellogg and Post-Franklin, said she was glad to hear of Hicks' resignation.
"She ruined the whole school system," Keeler said. "She made it her way, she made it to where she closed down everything and put everything on the north side of Battle Creek and made everything on the south side go away. ... Now that she's done messed up everything, now she's leaving? That isn't fair to us."
Gillson said she also is glad Hicks will be gone.
"Personally I am (glad) just to see if we can get somebody in that will help move the district back up where it should be," she said. "We need a change, we do, we can't keep going in the way it's going."

High flow oxygen therapy is a form of respiratory support used in the hospital where oxygen, often in conjunction with compressed air and humidification, is delivered to a patient at rates of flow higher than that delivered traditionally in oxygen therapy.
High flow oxygen therapy is usually delivered using a blender connected to a wall outlet, a humidifier, heated tubing and nasal cannula.
High flow oxygen therapy is commonly used on patients with acute respiratory failure (ie, hypoxemic respiratory failure) in the hospital system. Patients are usually in ICU or high dependency wards, and require assistance with respiration to stabilise breathing and control blood gases.
The AcuCare High Flow Nasal Cannula provides high flow oxygen therapy for adult patients with acute respiratory failure. It is designed to deliver continuous oxygen therapy up to a maximum flow of 60 L/min.
The AcuCare High Flow Nasal Cannula is for single-patient use (maximum seven days) in the hospital/clinical environment. It has been designed to provide superior comfort and ease of use to patients requiring high flow oxygen therapy.

Arrest in Fatal West Roseville Stabbing
by MaryAnn DePietro	,	February 23, 2015
On Sunday night, February 22, Placer County Sheriff's detectives made an arrest in Friday's fatal stabbing of 21-year-old Andrew Petrenko of Carmichael, according to an official press release.
Witness interviews and leads led detectives to the suspect's apartment. Zachary Nicholas Gonzalez, 22 of Sacramento was taken into custody without incident in the parking lot of the apartment complex where he resides. Gonzalez was taken to the Placer County Jail where he was booked on a murder charge. He is being held without bail. He is scheduled to be arraigned in the Auburn jail courtroom on Tuesday, February 24 at 1 p.m.
According to the Placer County Sheriff's Office, the incident occurred at approximately 11:30 p.m. in a West Roseville neighborhood. The investigation indicates the victim was walking with friends to a party on Lanie Court when he exchanged words with the suspect, who was driving by. The suspect allegedly exited his car and stabbed the victim. Although the investigation is ongoing, it does not appear the victim and suspect knew each other.
Records show that Gonzalez was previously arrested in October for public intoxication. He was picked up by Sacramento Police Friday, October 3 at 1:47 in the morning at the AM/PM Mini Market at the Arco station on J Street and 29th in east Sacramento. The victim Andrew Petrenko also has a history with law enforcement. Records show he was arrested in June of last year in Placer County for threats and weapons charges, and in July in Sutter County for residential burglary, possessing stolen property, and conspiracy. Further details of those incidents were not available.
Petrenko's family and friends have established a GoFundMe.com page to raise money for funeral costs.

Can you tell which picture is real and which picture is 'Minecraft'?
Moraine Lake in Alberta, Canada is a beautiful, picturesque scene: a crystal-clear lake surrounded by snow-touched mountains and green pine trees.
The lake's beauty is so captivating that a Minecraft player who goes by JakBB recreated the real-world scene in all its glory, sharing it on Reddit side-by-side with an actual photo of the lake. The visual mod that JakBB used makes it extra realistic.
If you can't tell, the Minecraft recreation is the one on the left, and the picture on the right is a real photograph.
JakBB said he used external software to generate the terrain, but the project still took about eight hours to complete.
Fittingly, while JakBB's Moraine Lake recreation grew in popularity, an actual photograph of the lake was on the front page of the EarthPorn subreddit.
Earlier this month, JakBB posted another stunning Minecraft creation on Reddit: a recreation of the MacOS Sierra wallpaper.
Yes, that's all created with Minecraft blocks.

Q: A simple database and Query System? I am new to databases and trying to solve one problem in which I have to build a simple database having few entries and then querying that database and then recording that answers from the database. I have to send many queries one by one. It is kind of experiment to learn database.
Could anyone suggest which simple software or language can I use to do that. I would prefer some high-level language. I know that it is doable in C/C++ but it does look fun in doing C/C++.
Thanks!

A: I would suggest using Postgres as the database for a beginner. This is the most ANSI compliant one of the open source databases. Unlike MySQL, it wont teach you any bad habits.
Pretty much all languages support querying Postgres, MySQL and SQL Server - just pick the languages you want to learn.

A: The simplest - shell script running psql commands :)  Otherwise, any high-level language can be used for the sake of experiment to learn database - ruby, python, java, etc.

La Teologia mistica è una branca della teologia che si concentra sulle esperienze o stati dell'anima che hanno esperienze mistiche e non possono essere prodotte da volontà umana.

Tradizione Cattolica

Nella dottrina del Cattolicesimo romano tali stati non avvengono che con l'ausilio ordinario di grazia divina. Teologia mistica, quindi, comprende tra i suoi discepoli tutte le forme straordinarie di preghiera, le forme più alte di contemplazione in tutte le loro varietà o gradazioni, rivelazioni private, visioni, e l'unione crescente di questi tra la Trinità di Dio e l'anima, conosciuta come l'unione mistica.

Maggiori contributori
Per quanto riguarda la storia o lo sviluppo del misticismo, è difficile registrare una storia delle esperienze dell'anima umana. Il massimo che si può fare è di seguire la letteratura, consapevoli che le più straordinarie esperienze mistiche sfidano l'espressione nel linguaggio umano, e che Dio, l'autore di stati mistici, agisce sulle anime quando e come vuole, in modo che non ci può essere alcun dubbio di ciò che potremmo considerare uno sviluppo logico o cronologico del misticismo come una scienza. Ancora, è possibile rivedere ciò che scrittori mistici hanno detto in certi periodi, e soprattutto quello che la Santa carmelitana, Teresa d'Avila, ha fatto per trattare i fenomeni mistici del tempo come una scienza.

De Theologia Mystica è un trattato di Pseudo-Dionigi l'Areopagita, il mistico del V secolo e teologo, in cui egli discute la trascendente natura di Dio a partire dal suo negativo. Gli scritti dello Pseudo Dionigi-Areopagita non raggiunsero l'Occidente fino all'anno 824 circa, quando furono inviati a Ludovico il Pio da Michele II l'Amoriano, imperatore di Costantinopoli: l'opera fu tradotta in latino da Giovanni Scoto Eriugena (c. 815 - c. 877).

The beauty standards set by the society we live in have tremendous influence on the styles and trends we are drawn to.
In the past few years there have been some fascinating experiments done to see how the rest of the globe interprets beauty. In one, a journalist sent a photo of her face to freelancers in over 25 countries and asked them to make her look beautiful. A similar experiment had female graphic designers in 18 different countries Photoshop the image of a woman into the "ideal" body type according to the beauty standards where they live.
In both experiments, all of the photos look vastly different from one another.
The desire for a milky, smooth complexion is also popular in other parts of Asia, including South Korea. While pale skin was originally a signifier of wealth and prestige, the desire for white skin is now associated with youthfulness. The first signs of aging on Asian skin is pigmentation, not wrinkles, so men and women use beauty products with whitening agents to appear as light and ageless as possible. These beauty products, known as K-beauty in the global market, are focused on health and hydration (we can thank South Korea for sheet face masks). It is about nourishing your skin so you look incredible with little to no makeup. Korean beauty consumers favor a dewy, glowing complexion with textured, yet natural eyebrows. Beauty trends lean towards soft, earth toned eyeshadow and natural lips with lightly tinted color.
It is somewhat hard to pinpoint the beauty standards in America since there is such a variety of cultures and races. And, what is considered beautiful has changed dramatically over the past few decades. In the '90s, the beauty standards were to be tall, thin, and fair-skinned. Beauty brands had complete control over what defined beauty.
However, according to research by Mintel, the beauty industry is changing. Men and women are starting to embrace their imperfections and take control of how beauty is defined. Today, the confidence that comes from accepting and loving one's body is considered beautiful.

Sleep Apnea in Children Can Be Cured!
Early detection equals easier treatment and better results.
We practice airway-driven dentofacial orthodontics for children. We know that proper facial development can be directed or corrected. Using custom designed orthopedic appliances and braces, we can develop the jaw, open the nasal and oral airway, correct the position of the teeth and skeletal symmetry to assist in full skeletal growth and correct structural abnormalities.
The good news is that sleep apnea in children can be cured! Because children are still growing, their structure can be directed for optimal developmental orthopedically. Dr. Klauer is trained in dental sleep medicine and structural, skeletal development. He is able to evaluate and determine the cause of your child's sleep problems and provide treatment.
First line treatment for OSA includes removal of tonsils and adenoids when they are noticeably inflamed upon examination. It is essential that proper nasal breathing is maintained to prevent relapse and recurrence of OSA after treatment.
Dr. Klauer has devoted his practice to treating patients with sleep, pain, and breathing problems and will always advocate for the patient to receive the best, most current, and comprehensive treatments.

Maria Ressa, 2018 WAN-IFRA Golden Pen of Freedom Laureate - Profile
Journalist and author Maria Ressa describes herself on Twitter as a cynic, a pragmatist and an idealist. In the face of attacks against her and her publication, Rappler, the idealism and optimism that Ressa continues to exude has carried her through her professional challenges to make her an inspiration for journalists in the Philippines, and around the world.
By Colette Davidson
Maria Ressa's winning of WAN-IFRA' Golden Pen of Freedom award is far from her first accolade. She has received the Overseas Press Club Award for Best Documentary, the National Headliner Award for Investigative Journalism and an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Investigative Journalism. She was also handed the SAIS-Novartis International Journalism Award for her work in East Timor and received a Ferris Professorship of Journalism at Princeton University.
Ressa has been a journalist in Asia for over 30 years, with a career spanning across various media. As the bureau chief for CNN in Manila and Jakarta for nearly two decades, Ressa was a senior investigative reporter on terrorism in Southeast Asia. Her work there inspired her 2003 non-fiction book, "Seeds of Terror: An Eyewitness Account of Al-Qaeda's Newest Center of Operations in Southeast Asia," focusing on Islamic rebel group Jemaah Islamiyah and its links to Al-Qaeda.
In 2005, Ressa headed up the News and Current Affairs division of Filipino media company ABS-CBN for six years, where she worked tirelessly to redefine journalism by combining traditional and innovative media models. In 2012, she published her second book, "From Bin Laden to Facebook."
Ressa's interest and talents in technology and new media were an impetus for her becoming one of the founders and eventually the CEO of Rappler, a social news network that aims to inspire community engagement and fuel social change. It became one of the first websites in the Philippines to use online multimedia such as video, text, audio and photos, incorporating social media sites for distribution.
Since the website launched in 2012, with its primary bureau in the Philippines and another in Jakarta, it has not only brought people together, but provided fodder for attacks by the government.
Since March 2018, Rappler has been attacked by officials in eight government offices. The publication has had its license revoked by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), been pursued for cyber libel by the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI), and been accused of tax evasion by the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR), among others.
The accusations have come amidst Rappler's coverage of topics considered sensitive by President Rodrigo Duterte's administration, from questioning the government's handling of the drugs war and exposing police brutality, to human rights abuses and abuses of power.
Despite it all, Ressa has held her head high, refusing to bow to government pressure. After the government revoked Rappler's license in January 2018 – a move that received international condemnation from everyone from The New York Times to the Washington Post – the publication called it a direct attack on press freedom.
"This is pure and simple harassment," Rappler said in a statement on their website. "We intend to not only contest this through all legal processes available to us, but also to fight for our freedom to do journalism and for your right to be heard through an independent platform like Rappler."
When the tax evasion case came up with the BIR – who said the publication had willfully attempted to evade tax payments – Ressa again stood her ground.
"This is clear intimidation and harassment," she said. "The government is wasting its energy and resources in an attempt to silence reporting that does not please the administration."
While Rappler continues to face government pressure, Ressa herself has not been spared. She has been the target of a hostile, gender-targeted hate campaign in an attempt to challenge her credibility. She's received threats of rape and murder, and become the subject of such social media campaigns as #ArrestMariaRessa and #BringHerToTheSenate.
But instead of burying her head in the sand, Ressa has become the outspoken face of the press freedom fight in the Philippines, denouncing online harassment and attempts by the government to undermine democracy.
"It began a spiral of silence. Anyone who was critical or asked questions about extrajudicial killings was attacked, brutally attacked. The women got it worst," says Ressa. "And we've realised that the system is set up to silence dissent – designed to make journalists docile. We're not supposed to be asking hard questions, and we're certainly not supposed to be critical."
As Ressa and her team continue to fight for press freedom, they still face uphill battles. As of March, Rappler correspondents based outside Manila were banned from covering events involving President Rodrigo Duterte. And journalists at Rappler – like many others in the country – are continuously fending off attacks, with Filipino media groups recording at least 85 cases of attacks and threats against the press during the first 22 months of President Duterte's administration.
During a press freedom rally in January, following the revocation of Rappler's license, Ressa spoke out, rallying the crowd to have faith in a free press in the Philippines. It's a call that has held through as Ressa and Rappler continue to weather the storm.
"We're not doing anything but journalism," said Ressa. "We're speaking truth to power, that's what we do. That's what makes a democracy successful. We're not afraid."
Maria Ressa is WAN-IFRA's recipient of the 2018 Golden Pen of Freedom award, an annual award that recognises the outstanding action, in writing or deed, of an individual, a group or an institution in the cause of press freedom. More information at www.wan-ifra.org
