"To leave one's home place"
Since 645 A.D., Japanese history has been divided into 231 gengo a term marking the accession of an Emperor to the throne or some other auspicious event. Modern Japan has had four gengo: Meiji (1868-1912) the era of imperial restoration and assimilation of Western technology; Taisho (1912-1926) the era of concurrent parliamentary and totalitarian ascendancy; Showa (1926-1989) an era marked by imperial expansion, war and democratic reconstruction; and Heisei (1989-?) an era as yet undefined. In graduated order, each era has distanced itself from the 264 years of the Tokugawa Shogunate (1603-1868).
The Tokugawa period was one of the most unique in human history. During its lengthy tenure, Japan closed itself off from the rest of the world and brutally prescribed an internal ethic that crystallized almost every aspect of the Japanese character. It has been an exercise in modernity to temper the historical momentum of the harsh ethics established during Tokugawa. Tanaka's life is, as are the lives of all Japanese, a personal record of this process of adaptation and redefinition.
Kakuei Tanaka was born on May 4, 1918, in the Taisho era, an era characterized by direct conflict between the old ways of Tokugawa and the new ideals of Meiji. He grew up in the small rural hamlet of Futada, now Nishiyama, in the secluded Prefecture of Niigata. The family's two-acre farm accommodated three generations and a dichotomy of values. Kakuei's grandparents, Sutekichi and Kome, had been raised according to the stern ethics of Tokugawa; his parents, Kakuji and Fume, on the promise of Meiji. The difference in attitudes was amplified by their respective professions. Sutekichi was a respected craftsman of small, wooden Shinto shrines. Kakuji turned an inheritance of several farm horses into an erratic trading business supported by additional odd jobs and gambling. In a place where rice share-cropping was considered good, honest work, and where conformity and humility were supreme virtues, Kakuji was neither in the right occupation, nor was he conformist or humble. He consistently placed family security in jeopardy with farfetched, get-rich schemes.
Kakuji's misplaced entrepreneurship kept the family near poverty and severely damaged their reputation within the tight-knit Futada community. Lacking even a modicum of advantage, Kakuei's family background magnified the social barriers that were also his inheritance.
A significant feature of the Tanaka legend is his romanticized fable of "Fushicho," the Phoenix. Of all the obstacles he would face during his life, none would be more insurmountable than those left him at birth. To appreciate his phenomenal rise to power, it is necessary first to attempt a brief, albeit unjust, glimpse at the geographical, cultural and historical context in which it took place.
Tanaka's geographical crucible was the prefecture of Niigata. For the majority of its history, this area of Japan was called Echigo, a name that Tanaka would later revive in honor of his prefectural heritage.
Located along the coast of northwest Japan, Echigo was blessed with scenic beauty and productive land, but cursed with a harsh climate and isolation. Consequently, early settlers did not migrate to this region, and throughout Japan's history, Echigo was never more than an ancillary target of possession.
The richest land in Japan is between Tokyo and Osaka. Within this area there are many large alluvial plains. Japanese history has been defined almost exclusively by the lords of this region. Power, opportunity and privilege, over the course of time, centralized on the Pacific side of Japan. As a consequence of social and cultural hegemony, a deep-seated bias was formed. Japan was psychologically sliced in half. The population facing the Pacific Ocean enjoyed advantage; the population facing the Japan Sea did not. This prejudice has two names: Omote Nihon, the right side of Japan, and Ura Nihon, the wrong side or bottom of Japan.
Locked between sea and mountain, Echigo's narrow corridor of harvest is hampered annually by immense snowfalls. Its winters are some of the most severe in the world, with annual accumulations of snow that range from thirteen to sixteen feet. The massive expanse of the Mikuni Mountains not only contributes to inclement weather, but has further served as a principle retardant to the region's development.
Whereas people in the Pacific and southern areas endured and prospered from the totality of social machinations, the people of Echigo remained a step behind. Innovations in technology and culture were slow to traverse the Mikuni. The early aboriginal inhabitants, called Ezo, were easily subdued. Immigration was primarily a byproduct of conquest and exile, rather than of frontier spirit. As the nation matured from one political period to the next, Echigo was repeatedly reapportioned. Its land was given in booty to tertiary officers serving the interests of Omote (Right Side) rulers and its people were governed by rules superimposed from Omote capitals.
The first major implant was the Shinto religion, indigenous to the Nara area. It arrived during the 4th and 5th centuries. A simplistic outgrowth of curiosity over fertility and natural phenomenon, Shinto has played an essential role in the development of the Japanese character. As the perpetuation of the tribe was dependent on the fertility of people, animals and crops, an instinct for survival led people to venerate all matters of birth and growth. Being that fertility was subject to intervention by the forces of nature, people came to worship natural phenomenon. Literally millions of phenomenon qualified as objects of worship and were given the status of "kami," a concept that has had an important impact on the nation's sociology.Kami was defined as a spirit of something of superior origin a meaning similar, yet different from, the Western concept of God. Kami were believed to be present in certain trees, rivers, mountains and other objects of nature. The concept was not limited to nature, however; human behavior was indivisibly incorporated into the system. Each clan was given a inherent uniqueness and clan chieftains of special merit were elevated to the status of kami. In the nation's earliest records, reference is made to "Uji no kami" God of the clan. The gods themselves were then defined as "Uji no gami." Just as seasonal changes became the subject of harvest rituals, clan leaders were venerated through rituals of obedience that over time developed into ceremonial ancestor worship. The worship of kami and gami in all its forms strengthened the community by imposing forms of ceremony. Shared rituals fostered clan loyalty, first as a cohesive instrument of the small group and later as justification for leadership over a large group.
The Nara-based Yamato rulers were deeply influenced by Korean and Chinese migration. With them came a new cultural life and the premise for imperial authority. The Emperor Tenmu (673-686 A.D.), determined to embody tradition, commissioned the creation of the Kojiki (Record of Ancient Matters) and the Nihon-Shoki (Chronicles of Japan). Modeled after Chinese chronicles, these biblical works reconstructed an entirely new genealogy, in Shinto form, defining the imperial family and the nation.
Shinto, while lacking a scriptural foundation, has at its core the ethical precept of purity. Unlike religions teaching that man is created by God and left on earth to struggle between the forces of good and evil, Shinto holds that the Japanese are descended from God, born in purity and harmony. While impurity is created through communal occurrences that offend the senses, Shinto ritual removes impurity through ceremonial cleansing. The ritual of misogi cleanses with water; the ritual of harae cleanses by the waving of a wand. The spiritual importance of these acts is as evident today as in ancient times. A victorious election of a corrupt politician is still referred to as misogi and new enterprises are launched with harae. The Kojiki and Nihon-Shoki, in a grand sense, functioned as instruments of national purification. For two centuries or so, the nation had been overrun by Korean and Chinese ideals. Buddhism had found great acceptance among members of the court. To preserve a sense of the uniqueness of Japan, Yamato aristocrats needed their own grand design an indigenous mandate capable of co-opting foreign influence and reinforcing imperial authority.
That design was the mythology born during the reign of Emperor Tenmu, then carried by Omote settlers to every region of Japan. It began with six generations of deities born to Takama ga Hara (the plains of heaven). In the seventh generation, a heavenly couple known as Izanagi and Izanami were sent to create the world.
Standing on the celestial bridge of Ame no Ukihashi, Izanagi dipped his spear into the murky liquid below. As he withdrew it, drops fell from the point and created an island called Onokoro. The couple descended and made their home on the island which became known as the Japanese archipelago. The rest of the world followed later. Izanami then gave birth to the elements of nature, each an individual god. While giving birth to the god of fire, she died. Izanagi, in grief, cut off the head of the newborn fire god and retreated to the land of shadows in search of his wife.
When Izanagi came upon his wife's decomposed body, he fled back to earth in horror. Wishing to purify himself, he bathed in the sea. The cleansing process produced twenty-six new gods one from each part of his body and clothing. The sun goddess, Amaterasu, was born from his left eye and received Japan as her dominion.
Ninigi, the grandson of the sun goddess, took human form. It was Ninigi's great-grandson, Jinmu,who was ordained Japan's first Emperor according to the biblical histories. Jinmu was given a mythical date of enthronement at around 660 B.C. Chinese records first speak of Japan in the late third century A.D.; nonetheless, all Emperors to the present one claim Jinmu and Amaterasu as their ancestors. According to mythological accounts, forty-one descendants of Jinmu had occupied the throne by the eighth century.
The Shinto-inspired chronicles which promoted the myth, elevated the religion above the foreign imports of Buddhism and Confucianism. Shinto offered legitimacy to Omote aristocrats through dance and festivals for the common people. Buddhism offered the pageantry of organized religion, replete with a code of morals, the hope of salvation and the promise of enlightenment. Confucian doctrines focused directly on human relations and the self, not on the supernatural. The three religions complemented each other. The first provided national sanctity, the second self-enlightenment and the third social obedience and refined manners.
Armed with their own mythology, Yamato Emperors consolidated and settled all territories up to and beyond the northern reaches of Echigo, though aboriginal clans, known as Ezo, were not dislodged from the northern tips of the main island of Honshu. Sixty-eight political regions were carved out. A virtual reproduction of the T'ang central government was created and civil codes were administered.
Under the Chinese system, the Emperor was served by a Great Council that was presided over by a Head Chancellor (Daijo Daijin). Below him were two ministers: the Minister of the Left (Sadaijin), and the Minister of the Right (Udaijin). Below them were the eight divisions of government: Justice, Treasury, Education, Ceremony, Civil Affairs, Military Affairs, Imperial Household and Imperial Communications.
The Chinese system embodied the Analects of Confucius. The system's complex definition of individual responsibilities, not rights, was an interpretation of the schematic five elements as outlined in Confucian doctrine: one principle as the core of existence; two poles negative and positive/man and woman; three manifestations heaven, earth and man; four notions wood, fire, metal and water; and six kinships ruler to subject, father to child, and husband to wife.
The Kojiki and the Nihon-Shoki forced an alteration in the first element, which in turn modified the others. The Japanese were of heavenly descent, so for them, the original principle could not be a mandate from heaven as it was for the Chinese. Consequently, extraordinary attention had to be given to pedigree. Qualifications for authority became measured first by birth, then by character and finally by ability. The Kojiki and the Nihon-Shoki were taught as literal fact until 1945.
In 794 A.D., the Yamato capital was moved to Kyoto. The relocation was accompanied by a significant refinement of political institutions. As the central government became increasingly sophisticated, the power of court nobles grew. Among the royal families, the Fujiwara family gained the most power and came to dominate the Imperial Council. They created a labyrinth of etiquette and ritual that increasingly removed Emperors from an active role in policy making.
By the tenth century, the number of court princes grew at an alarming rate and became a heavy burden on the national treasury. As a solution, they were given a family name and control over provincial sectors. Two great families emerged: the Taira or Heishi, descendants of Emperor Kanmu (781-806), and the Minamoto or Genji, descendants of Emperor Seiwa (858-876). The families formed military castes in the service of Fujiwara regents. Each vied for court favor producing an intense rivalry. By the eleventh century, Taira forces controlled 235 districts and Minamoto forces controlled 224. The ancient family of Jo controlled the province of Echigo. As descendants of Koremochi, they were Taira an unfortunate occurrence for local residents and their progeny. When war broke out between the Taira and the Minamoto in 1180, Echigo's warlords Sukenaga Jo, his younger brother Nagamochi Jo and Sukemori Jo, who was the nephew of Nakamochi, along with the entire Taira clan met with defeat. Echigo became a vassal province of the Minamoto and was given in booty to Kanto warriors. All members of the family of Jo were eliminated in 1200.
The clash between the Taira and the Minamoto firmly established the social dominance of the warrior class. Yoritomo Minamoto was declared Shogun (Military Commander and Chief) in 1192. For the inhabitants of Echigo, the ascendancy of Minamoto marked the beginning of seven centuries of benign neglect. For them, it was the legacy of a defeated Taira. In 1343, Echigo was given as a reward to the Uesugi clan by the newly established Ashikaga government.
It was around this time that Tanaka's ancestors first settled the Sakata area in Futada hamlet. They were one of eighteen families to arrive as farmers, and their descendants remained farmers until Tanaka himself sought a different profession some five hundred years later.
In 1568, Nobunaga Oda, a descendant of Taira, organized a ferocious military command that began unifying feudal estates. He was aided by the guns that had been introduced to Japan by Portuguese traders in 1543. Just short of total conquest in 1582, he was assassinated. Hideyoshi, a general in Nobunaga's forces, seized the moment and finished what Nobunaga had started.
Even though Hideyoshi became the undisputed military leader of Japan, the Emperor did not confer upon him the title of Shogun, but rather that of Kanpaku (principle regent). Hideyoshi lacked royal blood and therefore bore no family name. His father was an Ashigaru apart-time Samurai of the most inferior rank in the service of a feudal lord. It was only by imperial decree that Hideyoshi received the surname Toyotomi, an important first step in the process of passing power to his heirs.
Hideyoshi is historically considered one of Japan's most brilliant administrators, two of his policies had a profound impact on Echigo. The first was the confiscation of weapons from the peasants. The second was his great land survey, known as Taiko no Kenchi, that required sixteen years to complete (1582-1598). Motivated by fear that his government was being cheated on taxes, he ordered that every significant plot of soil be ranked according to fertility, quantity of yield and value of the type of crop produced, and decreed that the cultivator working the land be registered with the central authorities. As an addendum, Hideyoshi's surveyors assigned responsibility for production to the land registrant. Titles were made nontransferrable, productivity quotas were fixed, and each farmer was ranked in proportion to the size and productivity of his property.
The survey results were transcribed into law. For the first time in history, agricultural production came under the direct control of central authorities. As a result, feudal lords surrendered a portion of their autonomy, and the new peasant class, nearly 90% percent of the population, found their lives legislated by uniform code. Both lord and vassal were held strictly accountable for set tax rates based on the productivity quotas established by Hideyoshi's surveyors. The new system, accompanied by Hideyoshi's weapons confiscation policy, caused widespread rebellion and graft. On threat of public crucifixion for violators, the two initiatives were made successful.
Hideyoshi died in 1598, the same year that Kagekatsu Uesugi was allowed to trade Echigo for the more valuable province of Aizu. It was also the same year that Taiko no Kenchi was completed. As cruel and efficient as Hideyoshi's policies were, the magnitude of discipline required from each peasant subsequently rose exponentially under the rule of Tokugawa.

Gypsy fiestas change their tune
Traditional flamenco is giving way to reggaeton, salsa and rumbas at Roma celebrations
Amelia Castilla
Madrid - 30 Jul 2014 - 14:48 UTC
A Roma birthday celebration outside Seville.Alejandro Ruesga
Gone are the times when Gypsy weddings, baptisms and birthdays were celebrated with tangos, seguiriyas and bulerías until daybreak.
Nowadays you might still hear these classic flamenco rhythms towards the end of a celebration, when older guests take over the dance floor. But for the most part, young Roma prefer fusion sounds that merge flamenco with salsa, reggaeton and rumba.
"It used to be that everything was done with a group of singers and hand-clapping; the bride or hostess would take someone out on to the dance floor, but the fiesta changed when the piano and drums were introduced," explains Pedro Molina, a photographer who has been documenting Gypsy celebrations for the last 35 years.
Not a Roma himself, his success is based on his discretion and respect for the community's customs, which include inserting a white handkerchief into the bride's vagina to see whether her hymen ruptures and blood comes out – proof of her virginity.
It's as though the sound of coughing were being amplified" Manuel Molina, singer
At the beginning of his career, "weddings would go on for three days without interruption," he recalls. "But the crisis has reduced that to as little as one day."
Molina will not offer his opinion on the new flamenco fusion that features prominently at today's celebrations. Nor will Raimundo Amador, the 55-year-old guitarist who has himself blended flamenco with rock: "Who among us can tell young people what they should be listening to?"
No wonder. Who knows what his own father, Luis Amador, thought when he saw his son playing Jimi Hendrix.
But flamenco singer Manuel Molina has provided an eloquent description of what the new rhythms sound like: "It's as though the sound of coughing were being amplified."
There is one band that stands out for producing "innovative" work these days: Los Yumay come from the notorious Seville projects known as Tres Mil Viviendas, and they play rumba with a Latin touch. The lead singer, Horacio Silva, 37, dropped out of school at age 16 and tried his hand at many jobs before succeeding as a singer and songwriter. He has been supporting his family for over a decade on what he makes.
"I can't complain," he says via telephone from the rehearsal studio. "I ask party organizers to come to the studio and tell me about the event, including the hosts' names and their story, including their uncles, aunts and cousins; then we make music around that."
Enrique Salazar, the guitarist, says they cover reggaeton, salsa and flamenco, then upload their work on to the internet.
"Many people grab it from there and play it across Spain, without paying royalties," he says.
Los Yumay do not have a label to back them up, and until now they have never played outside Roma circles. Their income comes from live gigs, which bring in between €500 for the full package and "enough to cover costs, plus a small gift."
Back in the good old days, people hired well-known artists such as Niña Pastori and Parrita, but the crisis has hit everyone's pockets.

Kylie Philipps and Trent Schwartz named 2021 AMSA Student Teacher "Cleaver" Award Recipients
KEYWORDS American Meat Science Association / awards / meat science / Reciprocal Meat Conference (RMC)
Kylie Philipps and Trent Schwartz have been selected as the 2021 American Meat Science Association (AMSA) Student Teacher "Cleaver" Award winners. A meat cleaver is resilient and designed to break through soft bones and cartilage. Graduate teaching assistants are encouraged to be "cleavers" by being resilient in teaching abilities, breaking through to students, and enhancing their knowledge. The tough metal and thick blade of a cleaver are unique and more durable compared to other knives. Graduate students are expected to be durable through their obligations, and above all, to create a unique learning experience for students.
Kylie Philipps is a master's student in the Department of Animal Science at the University of Florida. "As an undergraduate, I was fortunate to be taught by some outstanding instructors. However, one of these individuals stood out above the rest, as he continually challenges me and teaches me how to truly think. He has been the biggest supporter through my graduate education and the reason I strive to challenge my students to be learners the same way he challenged me," said Philipps. Her passion for teaching served her well as a graduate teaching assistant while at the University of Florida. "From the very first class, she did an amazing job teaching and managing her students; we were all engaged despite meeting via zoom," said Douglas Natoce, an undergraduate student at the University of Florida.
Trent Schwartz is currently a Ph. D. student in the Department of Animal Science at Texas A&M University. Schwartz says, "My passion for teaching and mentoring students can be attributed to all of the amazing folks who have helped me along the way." With a motto of "students first" defining his teaching philosophy, he successfully converted a meat science course to online during the COVID-19 pandemic. Dr. Jeffery Savell, University Distinguished Professor, Texas A&M University says, "Trent has become a valuable part of our program, who puts all of his efforts to do the best he can and deliver every time."

Staphylococcus epidermidis isolated from newborn infants express pilus-like structures and are inhibited by the cathelicidin-derived antimicrobial peptide LL37.
Coagulase-negative staphylococci and its subtype Staphylococcus epidermidis are major indigenous Gram-positive inhabitants of the human skin. Colonization occurs in direct connection with birth and terrestrial adaptation. This study focuses on factors that may influence skin colonization of the newborn infant that relates to the immune status of both the bacteria and the host. Skin is an effective barrier against bacteria, and this function is partly mediated by the presence of antimicrobial peptides including human cathelicidin peptide LL37. Gram-positive bacteria have been described to have adhesive pili on their surface that mediates specific attachment to the host. Here, we identify, by negative staining transmission electron microscopy (EM), two different types of pilus-like structures commonly expressed on S. epidermidis isolated from newborn infants. We also show that the cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide LL37, constitutively expressed in the skin barrier of the newborn, significantly inhibited growth of S. epidermidis indicating its importance for the ecological stability of the skin microbiota. Further studies are required to elucidate molecular mechanisms of host-microbe interactions, both for the maintenance of a mutually beneficial homeostatic relationship and for the protection of self when it results in overt disease.

AMPED™ FEATURED ALBUM OF THE WEEK: KEITH HARKIN/IN THE ROUND
KEITH HARKIN
IN THE ROUND is an intimate and personal live album recorded by Keith Harkin, best known as a founding member and lead soloist of Celtic Thunder, the Irish sensations who have sold over a million albums worldwide. Prior to the release of IN THE ROUND, Harkin released two solo studio albums - KEITH HARKIN (2012) and ON MERCY STREET (2016) – plus the Christmas album NOLLAIG (2016), which debuted at #1 on the Billboard World Music Chart. While Celtic Thunder's theatrical live performances are the stuff of legend, Harkin's live performance on this release is stripped down to acoustic guitar and vocals. IN THE ROUND lets Harkin's voice and the songs' melodies do the talking.
"I was with Celtic Thunder for a great 10 years," Keith Harkin explains, looking back on that evening when he recorded IN THE ROUND. "But I never got to actually show what I do best. A lot of people didn't know I could even play three chords on guitar, much less hold a whole concert together on my own. They didn't know I wrote my own songs. So, the time finally came for me to show that side of me."
BBC Radio once called Keith the 'Irish Jack Johnson' and on this release, it is not hard to wonder why. Both gentle and emotional, IN THE ROUND features Harkin accompanied only by guitarist Dave Bakey. The 14 performances on the album include "Lauren And I," which he originally wrote and performed with Celtic Thunder, "Wait On Me" and two previously unreleased songs co-written with legendary songwriter and performer Jack Tempchin (co-writer of some classic Eagles and Glenn Frey solo tracks). Overall, IN THE ROUND is an album that will surprise and delight longtime fans and those completely unfamiliar with Celtic Thunder.
Keep on truckin',

CBS says Hello Again to One Big Happy creator Liz Feldman
Liz Feldman is getting a second shot at a three's-a-crowd comedy: Deadline reports the creator of One Big Happy has just landed a put-pilot commitment at CBS for Hello Again. The multi-camera comedy will follow a "mostly happily married woman" who struggles with second thoughts and chances after she learns her new neighbor happens to be "the only other man she's ever loved." Feldman's previous endeavors include the aforementioned NBC comedy in which the third wheel was alternately one of the newlyweds or Elisha Cuthbert-as-a-lesbian, and stints writing for The Ellen DeGeneres Show and 2 Broke Girls. She'll executive produce along with Aaron Kaplan, who is also developing shows about monsters and Nicki Minaj—which are two separate concepts, obviously.

For centuries, people have been flocking to America in search of a promise of a better tomorrow. The journey is often marked with both intense hardship and shining resilience.
"Becoming American," a traveling film series that incorporates art and lectures, is currently at the Museum of Boulder — the only nonprofit in Colorado selected to participate in the grant-funded program. The ongoing, six-week event, chronicles different perspectives through mediums that prove to be engaging, eye-opening and indelible.
"We are honored to have been chosen by the National Endowment for the Humanities to offer this program in Boulder," said Megan Moriarty, director of community engagement for the Museum of Boulder. "I hope the program creates the space for an informed discussion about immigration in the United States, as well as provides a venue for neighbors to learn about each other's diverse backgrounds and recognize how many of us share similar immigration stories."
Now in its second week, the free series remains a draw for students, historians, professors and community members of all backgrounds. On Tuesday, attendees will be treated to the 2009 documentary "Welcome to Shelbyville," which gives an emotional look into one Bible Belt town's reaction to the influx of Somali refugees and a growing Hispanic population. A light is shone on cultural differences, unexpected friendships, misunderstandings, prejudice and mutuality that can eventually prosper when long-standing residents welcome newcomers.
In conjunction with the ongoing films, attendees can take in the poignant work of Louisville-based photographer Dona Laurita. In her series, "The Silhouette Project: Stories of Immigrants, Refugees and Dreamers," she captures powerful black-and-white photographs that hold a sense of mystery and an otherworldly, at times ethereal, vibe. Paired with the images are journal-like entries that give an inside look into the innermost thoughts of those who have started over beneath purple mountain majesties, against amber waves of grain. What began in 2016 has grown into an ever-evolving project — highlighting various individuals in their quest to adjust and settle in the States.
"I'm excited to show Dona's work during this series because it incorporates the voices and stories of local immigrants and refugees," said Moriarty. "Her series brings the conversation about immigration into the present day. The 'Becoming American' series is focused on the history of immigration and her work shares the voices of recent immigrants, refugees and Dreamers living in our community today. Also, I believe art like 'The Silhouette Project' allows us to find common ground with each other."
Dr. Nick Villanueva, assistant professor of Ethnic Studies at the University of Colorado, will be moderating the discussions post-film, where attendees can voice their concerns and viewpoints in a relaxed atmosphere sure to spark plenty of lively dialogue.
"The NEH requires we partner with a local scholar to help moderate the series and Nick is the perfect partner, given his extensive experience teaching — in and out of school — adults about immigration in the United States," said Moriarty. "Participants will benefit from his scholarly expertise on issues of citizenship, national identity and community, as well as his experience facilitating workshops on contentious issues."
From capturing both the joys and struggles of a Dominican family chasing the American dream, in New York City, in 2001's "My American Girls" to showing the journey of Irish immigrants into Ellis Island in the late-1800s in "Destination America: The Golden Door," the films offer a layered look into what newcomers face.
"I'm looking forward to the entire series," said Moriarty, "but I think the final session on 'Immigration and Popular Culture' will be especially impactful given the current political backdrop and the push for better representation of recent immigrant voices in popular culture, like TV and movies."
In the concluding night of the series, on Feb. 26, the film "The Search for General Tso"— a freewheeling look at Chinese food in America — will be screened. Through interviews, it explores the culinary phenomenon and origin of Tso Chicken, a delicacy that's managed to spring up on the menus of Asian food restaurants far and wide. Themes like commodification of culture, the Americanization of ethnic fare and the concept of Chinese food as comfort food all surface in this delectable and sometimes humorous documentary.
"I'm looking forward to having community members use our new museum space to have honest, thoughtful discussions about a topic that is often misunderstood and talked about in sound bites," said Moriarty. "I hope the documentary films, paired with facilitated discussions, will allow us to go beyond the rhetoric around immigration and get to know each other as neighbors."

Ander Herrera 'signs move' to PSG from Manchester United
By Colin Millar - 9 May 2019, 10:44
Manchester United midfielder Ander Herrera has agreed to join Paris Saint-Germain on a five-year contract this summer, report Cadena Ser.
The 29-year-old is out of contract at Old Trafford this summer, meaning that he has been free to discuss terms with other clubs since January.
This is the latest report to have claimed that he has already decided to end his five-year stay in Manchester to join the Parisians on a free transfer.
A report from March in Diario AS claimed the Spaniard will move to the Parc des Princes on a three-year contract, with a 'significant wage increase' from a reported €112k per week up to €170k per week.
Then a multitude of other media reports followed that the midfielder was set for a move to the France capital, despite interest from former club Athletic Club Bilbao.
"Right now I'm only thinking about football and beating Barcelona in the Champions League," Herrera told Spanish outlet ABC last month.
"I have two months left on my contract while at the moment me and United do not think the same on the renewal terms.
"I want to continue playing at the top level and for a big club for as long as my body allows, and it is still my obligation to listen to what United have to say.
"I do not want to rule out any options at the moment."
Atletico Madrid have also previously been linked to the combative central midfielder, alongside Italian side Roma.
Herrera joined United in 2014 in a €30m deal and has made 189 appearances to date for the club, scoring 20 goals.
The report claims the midfielder wants to end his career at former club Real Zaragoza.

The Local Government Association ("the LGA") instructed Nigel Giffin QC to provide opinion on the issue concerning the extent to which a local authority or other body which is the administering authority of a fund established for the purposes of the Local Government Pension Scheme ("LGPS") might in that connection be subject to regulation by the Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA") pursuant to the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 ("FSMA").
In managing an LGPS fund, the administering authority is not carrying on a regulated activity, and does not require FSMA authorisation. Nor do the substantive provisions of CASS apply to the activities of an administering authority acting as such, even though that authority may have FSMA authorisation for some other reason.
A number of stakeholders have raised question regarding the legal status of local pension boards in particular their legal relationship with the authority acting as scheme manager. Accordingly LGA approached James Goudie QC for a view against the following questions.
3. Whether there is a conflict between the requirements of the 1972 Act and the 2013 Act with regard to membership of Section 5(7) Combined Committee Boards?
1. Local pension boards are constituted entirely under the Public Service Pensions Act 2013 and are not local authority committees. He goes on to point out some of the practical difficulties that arise from this view such as access to council officers and indemnity insurance cover.
2. In his view the relationship is entirely that set out in the PSP Act 2013.
3. There are conflicts between 1972 Act and the 2013 Act but they are not mutually exclusive and it is possible for a combined committee/board to exist however in his view 'An administering authority should think long and hard before choosing to go down the combined role route'.
4. The advice then goes on to point out the difficulties in this area in particular his view that a pensions committee with investment decision making powers is a finance committee and is therefore restricted in its membership.
The Shadow Scheme Advisory Board for the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) in England and Wales was established in July 2013. It is the forerunner to the Local Government Pension Scheme Advisory Board, which is established under Section 7 of the Public Service Pensions Act 2013. The Board has been set up prior to the formalisation of the regulations setting out the formal remit of the Scheme Advisory Board, which are expected to come into force in early 2015.
Last year, the Board sought and published advice from Counsel on fiduciary duty in the LGPS, a copy of which is located here.
the interaction between the LGPS and the EU Institutions for Occupational Retirement Provision (IORP) Directive 2003.
This advice is available as a PDF document here.
The generally accepted position in the LGPS was that the Administering Authority was required to meet benefit payments on a statutory basis regardless of the circumstances of the fund it operates. In the event, Nigel Giffin QC finds that the assumed position above is not reflected in the regulations resulting in a potential (if extremely unlikely given the strength of local government finance requirements) circumstance of there being an uncertainty around benefit payments should the funds be unable to meet them.
Such a situation, however unlikely, is in the Board's view untenable and therefore the Board will be asking DCLG to amend regulations in order to clarify the requirement for administering authorities to pay benefits on a statutory basis.
In Counsel's view the requirements of article 8 (which sets out that there should be legal separations between sponsoring employers and pension schemes) are met by the regulations but he accepts that regulations could be more explicit on the use of fund monies and that model structures such as South Yorkshire present no possible issues for compliance. The Board will continue to look at the issue of separation between fund and authority and will consider the content of this opinion as part of that work.
In terms of article 18 (which details how investments should be made in institutions for occupational retirement provision), Counsel makes some suggestions to strengthen regulations to ensure full compliance but reminds Administering Authorities that they should act in accordance with the Directive regardless of the current state of the regulations. The Board will be making recommendations to DCLG for changes to investment regulations which take on board this opinion to ensure that the relevant parts of Article 18 are adopted, reflecting the legal views provided by the Law Commission and Michael Furness QC.
This commentary is available as a PDF document here.
I. Does an LGPS administering authority owe a fiduciary duty and if so to whom it is owed?
1. In managing an LGPS fund, the administering authority has both fiduciary duties and public law duties (which are in practice likely to come to much the same thing).
2. The administering authority's power of investment must be exercised for investment purposes, and not for any wider purposes. Investment decisions must therefore be directed towards achieving a wide variety of suitable investments, and to what is best for the financial position of the fund (balancing risk and return in the normal way).
3. However, so long as that remains true, the precise choice of investment may be influenced by wider social, ethical or environmental considerations, so long as that does not risk material financial detriment to the fund. In taking account of any such considerations, the administering authority may not prefer its own particular interests to those of other scheme employers, and should not seek to impose its particular views where those would not be widely shared by scheme employers and members (nor may other scheme employers impose their views upon the administering authority).
So for example, in our view, an administering authority may choose to take into account the public health implications of tobacco investment but only if the result of such consideration is the replacement of these investments with assets producing a similar return.
Alternatively, in our view, an administering authority may take account of social housing needs but only if an investment in such stands up as an investment in its own right and can demonstrate that it is not preferring its own interests over other scheme employers in making the investment.
Furthermore, in our view, in making such decisions the administering authority cannot impose its view (on this or any other issue) on scheme employers nor can scheme employers impose their view on the administering authority if either resulted in a material risk to the return to and/or a suitable balance of assets in the fund.

Q: SharePoint list to show all items, with the exception of closed/completed items that are older than a specific amount of time (e.g. 7 days)? I am familiar with filtering the list to only show current items (not closed/completed), but is there a way to show all items except any that have been placed in closed/completed status more than 7 days ago?  I have a column that the user can enter the completed date, so I would be able to calculate based on that.  I am having trouble with the custom filter.  Status is not equal to Completed does not work, obviously, because that will show everything with the exception of the closed items.
Current relevant columns:
Status (Completed is a choice)
Completed Date

A: If you don't record the status change date in a separate field with a workflow, you can only rely on filtering by two fields: Status and Modified. View filter lets you filter by Modified less than or equal to [today]-7.

A: You will need to use Two AND filters, based on three fields.

*

*Is the task complete more than 7 days ago? [Today]-7

*Is the task complete? Yes

The following is the filtered list from more than 7 days ago.

The following is the list with all items.

If you use a user entry field, this all you need to do.
Otherwise, you can have a lot of fun by creating a modified import list, etc., etc.

Zemětřesení v Turecku 2020 nastalo 24. ledna 2020 v 18:55 v turecké provincii Elazig, poblíž města Sivrice. Silně zasažena byla i sousední provincie Malatya.

Podle prvních údajů dosáhlo zemětřesení síly 6,8 Mw, istanbulské středisko pro výzkum zemětřesení později uvedlo, že intenzita zemětřesení byla 6,6 Mw.
Po zemětřesení bylo zaznamenáno ještě 948 slabších otřesů, více než dvacet z nich dosáhlo síly 4 Mw. Otřesy byly kromě Turecka zaznamenány i v Sýrii, Gruzii, Arménii, Íránu a Libanonu.

V důsledku zemětřesení zemřelo 41 lidí a 1 607 lidí utrpělo poranění. Jedenáct dní po zemětřesení zůstávalo 5 vážně zraněných na jednotce intenzivní péče. Úplně zničeno bylo 87 budov, poškozeno jich bylo celkem 2945. Do pátrací a záchranné akce se zapojilo skoro 4 000 lidí a 22 psů.
Nejméně 45 lidí vyprostili z trosek záchranáři.

Už 22. ledna 2020 zasáhlo západní část Turecka středně silné zemětřesení, které vzniklo v hloubce asi 6,8 km. Událost se obešla bez zraněných a větších materiálních škod.

Face to Face: Bolivia's Growing Pains
On 24 May 2000, the Carnegie Economic Reform Network (CERN) co-hosted with the Inter-American Dialogue a Face-to-Face with Bolivian Minister of Finance Ronald Maclean Abarroa. Mr. Maclean spoke in response to a talk given by former Bolivian president Gonzalo Sanchez de Lozada at the Endowment on May 17.
Bolivia, Mr. Maclean began, is undergoing a crisis, but it is a crisis of success. The pains that Bolivia now feels are not pains from illness, but are pains from growth. Around 18 years ago, Bolivia decided to adopt a new economic model, a western model. Bolivia is mostly indigenous and thus it was hard to build support for this foreign model. Nonetheless, 18 years ago democracy was established, prices stabilized and structural adjustment undertaken. And these reforms have been sustained. Bolivia has continued with many deep institutional reforms; of the judiciary and legislature as well as the customs system. All of this is a big step toward fighting corruption.
Bolivia is now a country in transition. And this, Mr. Maclean said, is the worse place to be. Bolivia has ceased to be an authoritarian country, has ceased to follow a model based on centralism. Now, democracy is taking a hold and people in Bolivia vote individually but with a sense of collectivism. Mr. Maclean said that it must be admitted that it is an oligarchic democracy; the elites in Bolivia do control a lot. But, he says, Bolivia is now undergoing decentralization. It has come a long way. Yet, the people still look to the state for all the solutions; people think it is more centralized than it is.
Currently, the central government is very restrained in its capacity to invest in projects because much more money and responsibility has gone to the municipalities. The Public Participation Law of 1995 created a new, decentralized Bolivia. To extend this the current government has created the National Dialogues. Politics at the national level are decreasing in importance. And with this comes the end of oligarchic democracy, Mr. Maclean said. Politics are much more led by municipalities and local mayors than it ever has been before. So this, Mr. Maclean said, is the transition. And because of it, Bolivia is suffering growing
pains. But it is doing well; Bolivia is not ill.
The challenge today is to build a new constituency for change. This will be a fight since there are many who are against reforms, including old corrupt officials, labor bosses, coca growers and even some entrepreneurs who want protection from competition. Bolivia, said Mr. Maclean, needs to build a new political class.
Bolivia has many wars ahead of it, Mr. Maclean said. The first fights is the fight against corruption. On this count, there is a lot of opposition, even from Mr. Maclean?s own party. People are used to corruption and they all want a piece of the power.
The second war is the war on drugs. So far, the government has made good inroad to reducing illegal coca production, and Mr. Maclean says it aims to continue with this success. He recognized the reduction in coca production is the equivalent of
extracting 3-5% of the economy. This, plus the cost of pension reform (another 3%) has affected the economy and hurt the poor.
The third war is the war on poverty. This is a long and hard struggle, with no quick fix. Currently, Mr. Maclean said, there are too many intermediaries. It would be best, he said, for the central government to rely on local governments to carry out poverty reduction. Decentralization has the potential to really improve incomes in the rural areas, where most of the poor are.
It is against this backdrop that the issue of water came to a head in April. Mr. Maclean argued that the war over water is not a sign that the government, democracy or the market has failed. Two interrelated issues are important, he said. First, there had been a water project in Cochabamba. The entrepreneur who won the bid for the project discovered after beginning that it required more money than he had anticipated and when the difference was not covered the project was abandoned. This was quite simply a local business problem.
In the 1980s, the mines in Bolivia were closed and the miners were sent to the rural areas. Many of them became coca growers and made a good income. Their children, the next generation, are used to a fairly decent standard of living. After the government began with the eradication of coca, these families migrated to Cochabamba. They were strong and motivated, Mr. Maclean said. The media in Cochabamba mobilized the 20,000 peasants, creating a timebomb that was ready to explode with the increase in the price of water.
The Banzer government declared a state of emergency that lasted twelve days. (The former government, Mr. Maclean said, declared states of emergency that equaled six months.) The government has been accused of not being tough enough. Mr. Maclean defended his government saying that in order to it to have been tougher, they would have had to kill people, which is completely unacceptable.
The solution to the water problem will only come after the whole situation has been rethought and new ideas are on the table. The current government, Mr. Maclean said, insists however that the solution come from the people of Cochabamba, so that they can recognize and overcome the difficulties as well as build the public support that is crucial to such a project.
The session ended with a question and answer period.

San Diego Carpet Repair: What can be repaired and when to replace?
All types of accidents can happen to a home's flooring such as wrinkled carpet, pet damage, spilt bleach, burns, tears and more. This article will answer the most common questions on when a carpet can be repaired or if it is best to replace.
1. Loose & wrinkled carpet is the most requested carpet repair we receive in our San Diego office. The reason most carpet becomes wrinkled over time is from poor & improper installation. Thanks to new carpet installation guidelines carpet is now installed using a power stretching tool, although in recent, this type of installation was not a requirement. This type of carpet repair can be easily remedied by a reputable carpet repair or installation technician. Be sure to request the re-stretching to be done using a power stretching tool and not a knee-kicker.
5. Red Kool-Aid Stains are easily removed by a repair expert familiar with the "heat transfer" process. This type of a method is great for Kool-Aid, wine, sports drinks, coffee, and stubborn pet stains. A commercially formulated emulsifier is used to lift this type of stain from the carpet utilizing a white terry cloth towel and a clothes iron. If the stain does not respond it can be "patched" in by the technician.
7. Water damaged carpet can be repaired similar to the steps in #6 above. It would be a good choice to hire a certifiedwater damage restoration company that is knowledgeable in carpet restoration and drying procedures. It is very important to remove the damaged pad as soon as possible, clean the carpet and force dry with a carpet blower or fan. If left unattended the carpet pad will begin to mildew and before long a mold problem will require further restoration or even replacement. A knowledgeable carpet repair technician will be able to determine the correct thickness and density of the pad and match it, saving you from replacing the whole room with new pad and cutting your restoration cost.
San Diego Carper Repair – When should you replace?
2. Worn traffic areas are not restorable. Carpet that has been "flattened" down in the main walk areas is permanent. These areas can be raised using a nap lifter during the cleaning process and maintained with a carpet rake but once a carpet has been worn in traffic areas it can be quite difficult keeping it "fluffed up" again.
4. Sewage overflows warrants for carpet replacement. "Gray or Black" water damage is how a restoration company classifies a water damage loss. It is always a good idea to replace carpet if there has been a sewage back up resulting in damage to your carpet. Much like the decision to replace molded carpet, an individual who suffers from allergens or has a respiratory disease will have a very difficult time with this type of bacteria in the home.
Concluding this article on types of carpet repair and when to replace, you will find most misfortunate accidents that occur to your carpet can be easily repaired.

15 Deadliest Snakes On Earth
1. Boomslang
The Boomslang is covered spotted green skin with a matching pair of huge eyes that look extraordinarily cool, but unfortunately, they're not that friendly. Their venom contains a hemotoxin that disables the coagulation process in a person's body. Signs and symptoms of a bite may not show until hours after.
2. Sharp-Nosed Pit Viper
The Sharp-nosed pit viper, nicknamed "hundred pacers" is mainly found in southeast Asia. It is very poisonous and it is said that victims will only be able to walk 100 steps before dying. Symptoms of a bite include swelling, blistering, necrosis, and ulceration. Luckily, there is an antivenom made in Taiwan.
3. Tiger Snake
The Tiger snake gets its name from its color, as it is banded like the tiger. They're as dangerous as tigers too. Once bitten, a person will suffer pain followed by breathing difficulties and finally paralysis. Studies show that untreated bites have a mortality rate of 40-60%.
4. Black Mamba
A Black Mamba can move at speeds of up to 12.5 mph, making it the fastest snake on the planet. They're good at multiple attacks in a short time when provoked, which means they'll deliver enough toxins to make you die ten times. Antivenom should be administered within 20 minutes, or it doesn't work.
5. Saw-Scaled Viper
Another terrifying devil that each year kills more people than any other snake. Once bitten, you'll suffer bleeding disorders including the possibility of an intracranial hemorrhage. If you can't get treatment immediately you will suffer a long, painful death.
6. Eastern Green Mamba
This venomous snake lives in the trees of East Africa. There was one case where someone died in as little as 30 minutes after one bite. The symptoms of the bite included difficulty breathing, convulsions and nausea.
7. Inland Taipan
The Inland Taipan is distinct from other snakes as it is an expert in hunting mammals and killing warm-blooded species. This makes it the most venomous snake in the world. It usually does not strike unless provoked. Once bitten, the neurotoxins, hemotoxins, mycotoxins included in the venom will respectively affect your nervous system, blood, and muscles. If untreated the venom can be lethal.
8. Eastern Brown Snake
When you live or travel on the east coast of Australia, be very careful of Eastern Brown Snakes! A bite from them can cause dizziness, renal failure, paralysis and cardiac arrest. It is responsible for 60% of snakebite deaths in Australia. But actually, they prefer rodents to humans, unless of course they feel threatened.
9. Common Lancehead
The Common Lancehead lives in the tropical lowlands of northern South America. They're often found in coffee and banana plantations searching for rodents. Their venom is very lethal and fast acting. Almost all cases lead to temporary or sometimes permanent memory loss even when treatment is promptly received.
10. King Cobra
These cobras that mainly live in India and other parts of Southeast Asia have the deadliest know toxin which can even kill a giant elephant. Once bitten by a "king," your central nervous system will quickly be attacked resulting in pain, vertigo and eventually paralysis. It has been reported that death can occur as short as 30 minutes without the antivenom.
11. Eastern Diamondback Rattlesnake
The Diamondback Rattlesnake lives in North America, and won't attack humans unless it feels threatened. The last warning before a bite is when the snake violently shakes its tail. The venomous bite will cause red blood cell deterioration, tissue damage, and if left untreated, death.
12. Western Diamondback Rattlesnake
As the name shows, this snake's habitat is in the southwestern area of the United States. Like the eastern diamondback rattlesnake, it rarely attacks humans but has been reported to be responsible for the majority of snakebites in northern Mexico and the America. Don't piss them off, or they will deliver a large amount of venom to your body.
13. Philippine Cobra
The Philippine Cobra is an expert in long-distance shooting, as they're able to accurately spit their venom at a target up to 3 meters (9.8 feet) away. They love water and are often found close to ponds and rivers.
14. African Puff Adder
The Puff Adder is responsible for the most snakebite fatalities in Africa, as they're very aggressive and strike very fast. The warning signs are that they adopt a tightly coiled posture, and the fore part of their body will form an "S" shape.
15. Many-Banded Krait
The Many-banded krait is mainly found in southern China and Southeast Asia. They usually wander at night and become aggressive to hunt. Symptoms will not appear immediately after the bite but may show hours later. If untreated, death is likely 70-100% of the time.

Buy local fruits for New Year's celeb urges DA chief
Author: DA Communications Group | 30 December 2020
Agriculture Secretary William Dar urges the public to patronize and buy local fruits in keeping with the tradition of serving round fruits during the New Year's celebration.
"We, Filipinos, practice a tradition gathering a variety of round-shaped fruits, as they symbolize good fortune and prosperity. For most, 12 kinds of fruits are displayed on the dining table, serving as a centerpiece of every Filipino family's media noche," he said.
"Promoting our own home-grown fruits will boost not only the country's fruit industry, but also provide farmers and their families more income," the DA chief added.
He suggested 12 fruits that include: pinya (pineapple), tsiko (chico), bayabas (guava), dalanghita (citrus) or sintunis (small orange), Perante or Satsuma (Vizcaya ponkan), melon (cantaloupe), suha (pomelo), atis (sugar apple), pakwan (watermelon), pitahaya (dragon fruit), papaya, and avocado.
"These are available year-round and can be bought in every market. Let's promote and take pride in them, thus giving our tradition a deeper meaning by nurturing our agricultural sector," Secretary Dar said.
He also reminded the public to look after their health and stay physically-fit by engaging in regular exercises, and most importantly consuming not only fruits, but also nutritious vegetables and appropriate protein sources to boost their immune system against COVID-19.
"Now more than ever, with Covid-19 still lurking its ugly head, and with the emergence of a new rabid strain, we need to keep our bodies' defenses strong and functioning. On behalf of the entire Department of Agriculture team, we wish all Filipino families a prosperous New Year!" he declared. ### (Rita dela Cruz, DA StratComms)

Located on the rugged hills of Makara Farm and Terawhiti Station on the south coast of Wellington, the wind farm is made up of 62 wind turbines, each generating up to 2.3 MW of electricity. According to Meridian Energy, the combined output from the wind farm would supply enough power for Wellington's domestic use.
Culham Engineering supplied our 400t Liebherr crane to assist in the dismantling of one of the wind turbines at this extremely challenging worksite. With the rotor 82m in diameter and weighing 54t, mmanoeuvring it onto the waiting transport required meticulous planning to mitigate the associated risks.

For over a decade from the mid-eighties on The Bates were Germany's best and with over a million records sold, most successful Punkband besides Die Toten Hosen. They toured all over Europe and Japan with bands such as The Toydolls. Sold more than 1 million records and hit the Charts in Thailand but paid tribute to fame and Rock'n'Roll, culminating in the death of singer/bassist Zimbl at the age of 41 because of drug and alcohol abuse. This live album from 1992 shows them at the height of their powers! Raw, wild, a class of their own.
It all started in the mid-80ies in Eschwege, Germany. Four boys and their love for Punkrock accompanied by talent and diligence. Soon after they found their charistmatic frontman Zimbl they started touring locally. The Bates played youth centres and smaller clubs and got known as the hottest thing between Werra, Fulda and Weser. It wouldn't take long until they reached out for the rest of the country and 'til they signed their first major contract with Virgin (who also released "Never Mind The Bollocks") and became a huge success.
The Bates always were a band that stayed real. Of course they did all of this MTV and VIVA party stuff and Zimbl even got pictured in Bravo's 'Foto-Lovestory' alongside German popstar Blümchen, but they stuck to their roots. They sung about love, desire and party. They never were a political band, it was all about having a good time. Proof to this is the stunning live album entitled 'Unfucked' from 1992. Now for the first time ever available on Vinyl and digital. The 4-piece was a very powerful act to experience live, headed by their charismatic singer and bassist Zimbl. The Bates always had great songs like "The Lips of Jayne Mansfield" that were accompanied by stunning cover versions of their favorite artists.
"Unfucked – Live" was originally released by Snoop Records in 1993. It was the band's last album before they signed with Virgin. Surprisingly it never got re-released. It is 100 % proof why The Bates got that big: Because they were a stunning live act! "Unfucked – Live" was recorded in 1992 at the Outpost club in Göttingen and mastered by Pauler Acoustics, Northeim. Master & Servant remastered the files for re-release on Vinyl.
The story of The Bates continues until 2001. After years of drug and alcohol abuse of singer Zimbl the band took a break from which they never returned. Zimbl (Markus Zimmer) died in 2006. He only got 41 years old. Armin (Beck) works as a minister, Klube (Frank Klubescheid) is a social worker specialized in helping disabled persons live rich and fulfilling lives, Reb (Michael Rebbig) is a teacher and Pogo (Thomas Möller) works - since he left The Bates in 1998 – for Hamburg based soccer club FC St.Pauli.
The Bates 'Unfucked - Live' will be released December 4 via Glitterhouse Records limited to 500 copies on red Vinyl. It will be the first Bates album available on Vinyl since 1992.

I thought I'd share this photo of the girls chatting to their Nanna through Skype.
Got to love modern technology. It certainly makes keeping in touch with family and friends on the other side of the world so much easier. Between Facebook and Skype we're always up to date with news and the distance just doesn't seem so big.


Synopsis: One evening Nelly meets Loulou, a down-and-out young man. After her husband kicks her out, she goes off to live with Loulou. She is soon with child, but Loulou doesn't change his wayward life, spending time with his pals and pulling off small-time robberies. Deeply hurt by his attitude, Nelly decides not to keep the baby.
Synopsis: After leaving the asylum, Vincent Van Gogh settles in Auvers-sur-Oise, in the home of Doctor Gachet, an art lover and patron. Vincent keeps painting amidst the conflict with his brother, Theo, and the torments of his failing mental health. He has an affair with Marguerite, his host's daughter. However, she soon realizes that he doesn't love her and that his heart beats only for his art.
Synopsis: When cancer strikes the mother of the family in this French film, everyone in the family expresses a previously invisible caring and tolerance of the others. The father has always been a bit of a drunk, and is forever chasing younger women. Despite that, he and his wife care for each other, and he tends attentively to her in her last days while remaining unchanged in character. The son and daughter-in-law, whose marriage is somewhat sterile, have similarly penetrating interactions with the dying mother.
Synopsis: In a town in northern France, teenagers sitting for the baccalaureate await the fateful date with anxiety tempered with indifference. The past year has been the scene of their conflicts with adults and teachers alike who consider the exam as the highway to employment. The disillusioned teenagers see it more as the dead-end street to unemployment.
Synopsis: Donissan, a mediocre seminarian, haunted by Evil and the failure of his divine mission, mortifies his body and is unable to establish any rapport with his parishioners. Until the day the abbot meets young Mouchette, who has just committed a mortal sin. Based on Georges Bernanos's novel.

Q: Disable asking for passphrase key ssh I have installed LXDE on my ubuntu 16.04 and now every time that I want to ssh to my servers I get this message:
Enter passphrase for key '/home/emadhelmi/.ssh/id_rsa': with unity desktop never I asked for this passphrase. I also do this command lines:
exec ssh-agent bash
ssh-add

But when I start a new terminal I must again do these lines.
Also, I do whatever said in this and add this to my .bashrc:

Caps Basketball: Carbon Monixide Could Be Killing The Caps!
Carbon Monixide Could Be Killing The Caps!
I just couldn't figure it out. Last season the Caps were one of the top teams in the league. This season, they had barely any turnover and didn't lose any of their key players besides a goalie who is struggling in Denver. Bruce Boudreau tried every trick in the book and when that didn't work Dale Hunter replaced him but with not much change. Then one day as I was randomly flipping channels, I caught the following story on the news and had my explanation. Carobon Monixide was killing the Caps!
On the Today show, they ran a report about the dangers of indoor ice rinks. According to them, being in an ice rink can be just as dangerous as closing your garage door and running your car.
The reporter wanted some answers so contacted government agencies and congresspeople but they were all unavailable! Good reporting! Way to get those sources!
While the ice rink at Kettler & Verizon may be clean, the report says there were LONG TERM effects, so it could be affecting any of the Caps players!
"TOXIC FUMES we can't see, smelll, or taste are literally making children SICK"
"In the past 2 years, news reports show that more than 250 people have been POISIONED at indoor ice rinks."
"The CULPRET...Those SMOKE BELCHING resurfacing machines"
"I've probably scared a lot of people and they should be"
The report suggest we get those whimpy electric zambonies. Pshaw, hippies! So please somebody find out what is going on with the Carbon Monoxide at Kettler & Verizon. That is the only possible reason for the poor performance!!!
