Duffy, Sir Charles Gavan
Maume, Patrick
Duffy, Sir Charles Gavan (1816–1903), politician and journalist, was born in Monaghan town on 12 April 1816, the sixth and youngest child of John Duffy (d. 1827), a shopkeeper and former United Irishman, and his wife, Anne (née Gavan).
Formative years
After the premature deaths of his parents Duffy was brought up by a local parish priest; his three elder brothers died in the 1830s. For much of his life Duffy suffered from lung ailments, and as a young man feared that he might have inherited from his mother a tendency to tuberculosis. Duffy's youth was dominated by a sense that he and his fellow catholics were a dispossessed and downtrodden people; he listened to stories of oppression and bloodshed, and witnessed Orange demonstrations, at one of which a catholic was shot dead in broad daylight, the killers going unpunished. This made a permanent impression on Duffy; he later recalled that until he befriended the journalist Thomas Davis (qv) he was 'a patriot of the school of Rory O'Moore', identifying Irishness with the Celtic race and the catholic religion. He maintained a lifelong fascination with the 1641 rising, and at one time hoped to write a history of it. His poem 'The muster of the north', published in The spirit of The Nation (1843), was accused by numerous British commentators of justifying the massacre of planters in 1641, if not actually advocating its repetition; Duffy pointed out that it was a dramatic monologue in which the speaker's views are distanced from those of the author.
Duffy was educated at a local 'poor school' run by a teacher called Neil Quin, before becoming the only catholic pupil at a classical academy in Monaghan run by a presbyterian minister named Bleakley. He became Monaghan correspondent for the Belfast-based Northern Herald owned by Charles Hamilton Teeling (qv), and in April 1836 went to Dublin to work as a trainee journalist on the O'Connellite Dublin Morning Register. He was depressed by the cynicism of his journalistic colleagues and the failure of Daniel O'Connell (qv) to measure up to the idealised image he had formed of him. But he seized the opportunities offered by the capital for self-education through libraries, and developed a circle of stimulating friends. He enrolled at King's Inns in 1839 and was called to the bar in 1845 though he never practised. While visiting London, nominally to attend a legal institution, which all Irish trainee barristers were then required to do, he met Thomas Carlyle with whom he long maintained an acquaintance, which he later recorded in My conversations with Carlyle (1892).
In May 1839 Duffy became founding editor of the Belfast Vindicator, a populist bi-weekly, which demanded a greater municipal role for Belfast catholics and accused the Ulster liberals associated with the Northern Whig newspaper of using catholics for their own political ends while nursing feelings of superiority and granting them little or no political influence. Duffy pioneered in the Vindicator the type of popular political verse later associated with the Nation. Its voicing of repressed catholic grievances won the paper a healthy circulation of 1,300; Duffy bought out the owners and became proprietor in November 1839. O'Connell praised Duffy's criticisms of the Northern Whig (whose proprietors he described as 'mongrels', who, as they boasted descent from a Cromwellian drummer-boy, should 'go back' to Britain if they refused to call themselves Irish); he was less amused when Duffy attacked the O'Connellite Newry Telegraph.
Duffy helped to organise O'Connell's visit to Belfast in January 1841 to reinforce his claim that all reformers should be repealers; O'Connell had to travel in disguise for fear of hostile mobs and was accused of cowardice when he declined a challenge to debate with Henry Cooke (qv), whom Duffy compared to the serpents expelled by St Patrick (qv). Duffy declared that the mere fact that O'Connell had appeared in Belfast and left safely constituted a triumph; O'Connell was less sanguine. In June 1842 Duffy was convicted of seditious libel for contrasting the acquittal of Downpatrick Orangemen for killing a catholic with the execution of an Armagh catholic for killing an Orangeman; he avoided imprisonment by making a formal apology. During his residence in Belfast, Duffy studied philosophy at the RBAI.
Duffy now formed the ambition of founding a new nationalist paper in Dublin, and his intention was crystallised in the summer of 1842 during discussions with Thomas Davis and John Blake Dillon (qv). In the autumn of 1842 he sold the Vindicator, and the Nation first appeared on 15 October 1842. It was an instant success. Duffy primarily concerned himself with the managerial side of the new paper, installing Davis as chief leader-writer. They differed on certain issues: Davis supported O'Connell's attempt to form an alliance with the Ulster-based federalist movement, which Duffy publicly denounced as a betrayal of repeal; and after Davis's death Duffy was hurt to discover that his friend had privately believed him to lack the sense of an all-embracing Irish nationality that Davis had found in some of his Trinity College contemporaries. Nevertheless, they became intimate friends and, in his biography of Davis (Thomas Davis: the memoirs of an Irish patriot, 1840–1846, 1890), Duffy declared his friend the finest man he had ever known or hoped to know. Duffy's social commerce with his contributors (he had an eye for unrecognised talent) did much to shape the paper's sense of collective identity. Duffy also oversaw the publication of the Library of Ireland, a series of short patriotic works intended for popular circulation.
Young Ireland politics
After O'Connell called off the Clontarf meeting in October 1843, Duffy was one of the 'traversers' arrested with him for seditious conspiracy. He was tried in January–February 1844, sentenced to nine months' imprisonment (from May 1844), fined £50, and compelled to provide securities for good behaviour. However, the traversers were released from their (relatively comfortable) imprisonment in September when the house of lords overturned the verdict. Thereafter, tensions increased between O'Connell and the Young Irelanders, who looked with suspicion on his growing rapprochement with the whigs and became caught up in the rivalry between William Smith O'Brien (qv) and John O'Connell (qv) over the succession to the leadership. Duffy regarded O'Connell's unrequited love for the young Ulster presbyterian Rose McDowell as evidence of senility.
Davis died in September 1845 and a few weeks later Duffy's first wife, Emily McLaughlin, whom he had married only in 1842, also died; he was almost prostrated by these twin blows, and was also depressed by the ill health of a number of his contemporaries. He recruited John Mitchel (qv) to replace Davis as leader-writer of the Nation. Mitchel contributed to the growing tension between O'Connell and the Young Irelanders by publishing an editorial suggesting that if railways were used in an attempt to suppress the repeal movement by military means, repeal wardens should organise the derailing of troop trains. Duffy (who took responsibility for the article) was prosecuted in June 1846, but the jury disagreed after Duffy's counsel, Robert Holmes (qv), argued that the article referred only to a hypothetical situation in which the people would be entitled to resist an unjust attempt to deprive them of their liberties.
After the final breach between Young Ireland and O'Connell in June 1846 Duffy emerged as principal adviser to Smith O'Brien. In January 1847 he founded and oversaw the growth of a separate political organisation, the Confederate Clubs. Mitchel's support for James Fintan Lalor (qv) in his advocacy of an agrarian revolution (combined with his belief in slavery and hostility to Jewish emancipation) led to a breach in December 1847, when Mitchel departed to set up his own paper, the United Irishman. The French revolution of February 1848 brought about a temporary reconciliation, associated with the hope that the overthrow of the existing Irish ancien régime might be possible. In private, however, Duffy and O'Brien regarded Mitchel and Lalor as potential Robespierres who, in the event of a revolution, might treat the moderate wing of Young Ireland as the Jacobins had treated the Girondins; they hoped to persuade the Irish upper and middle classes to side with the revolution in sufficient numbers to retain control of it.
Despite the intense interest in Ireland and abroad in Mitchel's conviction for treason on 26 May 1848 and his sentence to transportation, Duffy opposed the idea of making this the occasion for a rising, since no preparations had been made. Instead, he attempted to secure arms and get the clubs to drill, while preparing for a possible rising after the harvest. On 9 July 1848 Duffy was arrested for sedition as a result of publishing a manifesto The creed of 'The Nation': a profession of confederate principles, in which he advocated an independent Ireland joined to Britain only by the crown, and suggested that if this was not conceded peacefully it might be gained by force. Duffy continued to edit the Nation from prison, but handed control to Margaret Callan (qv), who continued to publish it until its suppression on 28 July. Duffy's imprisonment kept him from participation in Smith O'Brien's abortive insurrection, but the prosecution at the trial of the rebel leaders presented him as having seduced O'Brien into treason. Duffy's trial was delayed by changes of venue and uncertainty over the exact charge to be brought against him. His first trial on 15 February 1849 ended in a hung jury; the jury at his retrial in April 1849 also disagreed, and Duffy was released, though he had to pay crippling legal costs. He thus became the only major Young Ireland leader to escape imprisonment and remain in Ireland.
In September 1849 Duffy refounded the Nation; it never achieved its former circulation, and came under attack from Mitchelite and chartist rivals (notably the Irishman, run by a former Nation employee, Bernard Fullam), which denounced him as a middle-class whig and deserter of the separatist cause. Duffy had decided that under current circumstances repeal was no longer practical politics: indeed, some of his immediate post-famine writings display a bitter feeling that the famine had reduced the Irish peasantry to the lowest depths of degradation and are haunted by the possibility that their failure to rise up in 1848 showed that the country was past saving. In 1852 the publication of Mitchel's Jail journal, which accused Duffy of abasing himself before the government to escape conviction and called him 'Mr Give-in Duffy', led to a bitter journalistic exchange between the two men, in which surviving Young Irelanders were enlisted to take sides. Duffy established that Mitchel had neglected to make preparations for a rising while exaggerating its chances of success and that Mitchel himself was the author of certain Nation articles for whose sentiments he had denounced Duffy; he also accused Mitchel of personal dishonesty in breaking his parole and escaping from Tasmania.
With the former Young Irelander Maurice Leyne (qv) as his right-hand man, Duffy sought a new route to bringing about Irish reforms. It was his intention to link the tenant-right agitation stimulated by the post-famine clearances to his own project of creating an Irish parliamentary party that would function independently of British parties and use its influence to secure change in Ireland. He acquired the support of some Ulster protestant tenant reformers, notably Sharman Crawford (qv) and James McKnight (qv), and in August 1850 he and Frederick Lucas (qv) were prime movers in setting up a tenant-right conference in Dublin that founded the Irish Tenant League. Duffy hailed the alliance (in retrospect) as 'the League of North and South' and to promote his ends he engaged in such conciliatory gestures as staying at an inn owned by a son of the murderous Orange leader Sam Gray (qv) when he visited Ballybay on League business. Although Duffy hoped that the League would displace existing MPs, it instead allied itself with a group of Irish MPs who had rebelled against the whig government over the Ecclesiastical Titles Act (1851).
In the 1852 general election Duffy became MP for New Ross; however, his speeches made little impact on parliament and he was absent for long periods through ill health. The Ulster wing of the League failed to win any seats. Tensions arose over the decision of Crawford and McKnight to support the decision of John Sadleir (qv) and William Keogh (qv) to take office under Lord Aberdeen, and they finally broke with Duffy and the Independent Irish Party (IIP) after quarrelling with Lucas (to Duffy's regret). Further difficulties were caused by the active hostility of Archbishop Paul Cullen (qv), who equated Duffy with the Italian nationalist Mazzini, his clerical allies with the Garibaldian Fr Gavazzi, and Young Ireland with the Italian revolutionaries of 1848. Cullen encouraged disciplinary sanctions against priests who campaigned for the IIP and is believed to have prevented John Henry Newman (qv) from appointing Duffy professor of modern history in the Catholic University.
Faced with the ongoing disintegration of the IIP, and suffering from financial and health problems, Duffy decided to resign his seat, sell the Nation, and emigrate to Australia. The Nation was acquired by a group among whom A. M. Sullivan (qv) – the main spokesman of the younger generation for O'Brien's and Duffy's conservative Young Irelandism – emerged as the leading figure. Duffy publicly praised Sullivan as a worthy inheritor, but a letter published – by inadvertence or otherwise – in Duffy's memoirs shows that he privately believed the paper deteriorated under Sullivan's editorship. The Nation of 18 August 1855 published Duffy's final message to his New Ross constituents, stating that until circumstances changed there was no more hope for the Irish cause than for a corpse on the dissecting table. (This famous phrase, quoted out of context, gave many contemporary and later commentators the mistaken impression that Duffy regarded the defeat of Irish nationalism as permanent rather than temporary.) The cessation of Duffy's memoir with his departure gives the impression that the IIP vanished at the same time. In fact it survived until 1859 and historians continue to debate how far he was justified in blaming its demise on Cullen: J. H. Whyte (qv) criticises Duffy's interpretation while Steven Knowlton supports it.
Tired of politics, Duffy went to Australia with the intention of practising law, but he was courted by the Liberal Party and was soon drawn once again into political life. In 1857 he was elected to the first parliament of Victoria on the introduction of representative government. His parliamentary experience gave him an important role in educating his new colleagues on procedure. He was in charge of the land department in the 1858–9 and 1861–3 governments of John O'Shanassy (qv); his 1862 Land Act encouraged small farmers ('selectors') to acquire landholdings, but its impact was limited by poor drafting, which allowed 'squatters' (large landowners) to acquire land by putting up 'men of straw' as selectors, and by Duffy's failure to realise the difference between the land hunger of the Irish peasantry and the speculative outlook of many Australian settlers. His ministerial service qualified him for a pension of £1,000 p.a., which gave him financial security for the remainder of his life. In 1867 Duffy helped to found the Melbourne Advocate. He was also a trustee of the Melbourne Museum and Art Gallery, and acquired artworks for it during his later residence in Europe.
In 1871–2 Duffy was briefly premier of Victoria in uneasy alliance with protectionist radicals – Duffy himself was a free-trader – but his government fell partly on the issue of catholic education, which Duffy favoured (his earlier support for the queen's colleges in Ireland had rested on expediency rather than on any principled hostility to denominational education). He was also suspected of jobbery and had lost the confidence of the governor. Duffy served as speaker of the parliament of Victoria 1877–80. He received a knighthood (commander of the Order of St Michael and St George) in 1873, and a KCMG in 1877. In Victoria politics Duffy had a secure base of support among the Irish (though his position was disputed by the O'Connellite and increasingly conservative O'Shanassy, who even convinced himself that Duffy had been an informer in 1848), but his influence was limited by his catholicism (which aroused vicious and persistent opposition), his adherence to metropolitan liberal principles, and his prickly and self-righteous personality. He was an advocate of Australian federation, and later felt that his contribution to this cause had been overlooked. His sons by his first two marriages made their careers in Australia: John Gavan Duffy (1844–1917) became a minister in the Victorian cabinet in 1880 and again in the 1890s and Sir Frank Gavan Duffy (1852–1936) was Australian chief justice.
Retirement, last years, and legacy
In 1880 Duffy left Australia for Europe. He lived mainly on the French riviera, making periodic excursions to Ireland and Britain. He resisted being drawn into Parnellite politics, just as he had earlier refused to join the home rule party of Isaac Butt (qv); he was occasionally offered parliamentary seats, and after the Phoenix Park murders (6 May 1882) Parnell (qv) considered resigning his leadership in favour of Duffy. In spite of his withdrawal from active politics, Duffy used his status as an elder statesman and his knowledge of Australian self-government to promote the home rule cause. In 1885 he attempted to persuade the Conservative Party through Lord Carnarvon (qv), whom he had known as colonial secretary, to accept a form of home rule. During Carnarvon's lord lieutenancy Duffy helped to arrange clandestine negotiations between him and Parnell on the subject; he was dismayed when the conservatives came out in opposition to home rule and annoyed by Parnell's ungentlemanly breach of confidence in revealing that the negotiations had taken place. (Duffy contributed a chapter on the talks to R. Barry O'Brien's life of Parnell.)
The principal achievement of Duffy's later years was the publication of a series of historical works: Young Ireland: a fragment of Irish history (2 vols, 1880, from which a chapter outlining the course of Irish history was produced for popular circulation as A bird's eye view of Irish history, 1882), Four years of Irish history (1883), The League of North and South (1886), Thomas Davis (1890), and My life in two hemispheres (2 vols, 1898). Duffy's reminiscences draw heavily on the Nation, his own manuscripts, and sources such as the diaries of the conservative Evening Mail proprietor Dr Henry Maunsell (qv).
Duffy's work dominates retrospective accounts of the Young Ireland movement; some of his judgments have been challenged by the availability of manuscript material such as the papers of William O'Brien, and later historians have criticised him for ignoring O'Connell's reasons for distrusting Young Ireland's martial rhetoric and for exaggerating the extent of the old Liberator's senility. However, Duffy's position as participant and eyewitness makes his writings an indispensable source for their era, especially as the diminishing status of Young Ireland in Irish historical consciousness means that no comprehensive modern account has appeared. In 1892 Duffy became chairman of the newly founded Irish Literary Society, which he intended to use to propagate Young Ireland literary ideals. He founded a New Library of Ireland and edited the first volume in the series, Davis's Patriot parliament of 1689. Duffy's didactic view of literature brought him into conflict with W. B. Yeats (qv), who wished to promote younger creative writers and received tactical support from younger separatists, who saw Mitchel as their hero and Duffy as his betrayer.
Duffy spent his last years at Nice and died 9 February 1903 at his home there, 12 boulevard Victor Hugo; he was buried at Glasnevin cemetery, Dublin on 8 March. The length of his career, the breadth of his experience, and his voluminous labours as a chronicler make him an important figure in the history of Ireland and the Irish diaspora in the nineteenth century. He also deserves attention as the most prominent and articulate Ulster catholic nationalist of his time. Duffy married three times. There were two children from his marriage to Emily McLaughlin, of whom one son, John, survived. By his second marriage (8 February 1847), to his cousin Susan Hughes (d. 1878), he had eleven children, of whom three sons and three daughters survived. His third marriage on 16 November 1881, to Louise Hall (d. 1889), niece of his second wife, produced three sons (including George Gavan Duffy (qv), signatory of the Anglo–Irish treaty and president of the high court) and one daughter, the educationist Louise Gavan Duffy (qv).

I'm a big fan of the Pragmatic Programmers, so when Ruby first appeared on the scene I bought a copy of the first edition of Programming Ruby. Honestly, it failed to grab me. It looked like a nice enough language, but its syntax is sort of a hybrid of Perl and Python. Given that I already know both Perl and Python, I couldn't see the point of spending much time on Yet Another Language, especially one that was more of the same.
Still, buzz continued to grow. I picked up a copy of Hal Fulton's book The Ruby Way. This one included Appendices explicitly for Perl and Python programmers, as well as several "real-world" examples, so I gave it another shot.
Actually, I started to give it another shot. But since the Appendices were squarely aimed at me, I started there. Big mistake — I fell asleep. Several times. I put the book aside and figured I was done.
Three years later, in 2004, along came Ruby on Rails. Wow. Do I really need to tell you how impressive Rails is? But at the time I wasn't working on any web applications, I still wasn't thrilled with Ruby as a language, and I certainly wasn't thrilled at the prospect of learning a whole new language just to write web apps.
More recently I've been looking at the cavalcade of Rails clones. I think I've settled on CakePHP as the best documented, most mature, and easiest to learn. But just as I was getting started, it occured to me….
The purpose of Learn to Program is, well, to learn to program. The language just happens to be Ruby. Honestly, I don't even remember when I first learned to program — I must have been 7 or 8 years old. (BASIC, on a Timex-Sinclair 1000, if you must know). I can't really comment on how well the book succeeds in that goal, because I'm clearly not the target audience.
I read through the book fairly quickly, since I already understand the concepts. A couple of things concerned me, though. The explanation of "variables" seemed overly complicated. I think the author was trying to explain references, without actually using the word "reference".
Ditto his explanation of recursion — I admire the attempt to suggest that recursion is a perfectly natural concept (the title of Chapter 10, on recursion, is "There's Nothing New to Learn in Chapter 10″), especially since most CS1 textbooks for imperative languages make it far too complicated. But c'mon. If it's so easy, why does "nothing new" take 17 pages to explain?
So I can't tell you whether it's a good book for a beginner, but it was a good book for me. The truth is, the only way to learn a new programming language is to write code. You can't just sit and read a book about programming; you need to do it yourself. In this, the author succeeds wonderfully. The exercises he suggests (under the heading "A Few Things to Try") are geared toward putting the concepts you've just read about directly into practice. And they're straightforward enough that, instead of thinking "oh great, another programming exercise," you'll be thinking "hey, that sounds easy enough," and you'll dive right in.
An "Angry Boss" program, which rudely asks you what you want, then yells and fires you.
The example programs are great, too. A psychology student who's dying to found out whether you wet the bed as a child? An algorithm from the game Civilization III? A baby dragon? Heh. Baby dragons. If you're looking to pick up Ruby, this is a fun way to get started. Oh, and my impressions of Ruby now that I've written a few short programs? It's kind of a nice language. You can slurp the contents of a file in a single line. It switches seamlessly between fixed-sized integer types and "big" integers. (As it turns out, so does Python, but I'd never seen it before). YAML is nicer than Perl's Data::Dumper. I like that you can add easily add methods to built-in classes, even if it's probably a bad idea — being able to type 3.factorial is coool.
Ruby strikes me as being sort of like Python, if Python had been written by someone who liked Perl. I don't think, though, that it goes the other way: Ruby is not sorta like Perl. It just has enough Perl-ish bits to make the transition less painful.
I'm having trouble deciding on my next Ruby book. I'm leaning toward the Pickaxe Book, but Ruby for Rails looks good, too. After all, that's why I was planning to learn Ruby in the first place.
By the way, click here for some bits of Ruby code. Nothing spectacular, but they're sitting here on my hard drive — no point in not sharing them.
Download and install an older version of CMake from http://www.cmake.org/files/. (The latest version won't work without change, and the last thing I need to learn is a new build tool.) I used CMSetup14.exe.
Set the Active Project Configuration to "ALL_BUILD - Win32 Release".
Choose Project, Settings…. Settings For: should be set to "Win32 Release", and all sub-projects should be selected.
Holding down the Ctrl key, de-select ALL_BUILD. Some more tabs should appear to the right. Select the C++ tab, and change Category: to "Preprocessor". Under Additional include directories:, add C:\fltk-1.1.7.
Not sure how I could have missed mentioning this, but apparently I did. My little Google Outline Browser was featured quite prominently in Jon Udell's Byte column last month. I'm quite gratified, and a little guilty that my own doctitles aren't quite up to snuff.
Since its introduction, pundits have wondered why Jini has failed to catch on like other Java technologies. Having recently tried to take the plunge into JavaSpaces, I believe I can answer that question.
Put simply, Jini is too hard to configure. I consider myself fairly intelligent, and I have a lot of Java experience and a fair amount of Solaris experience. Nevertheless, it took me over a week of wasted evenings trying to run the Ray Tracer example included with the Jini distribution. Running this example requires no less than 6 processes to be running, 4 of which require commands spanning multiple lines to start.
You can see the fruits of my labor, a shell script that starts everything running. For everyday use, I've broken it into 5 different shell scripts: jini-start-all.sh, jini-start.sh, jini-stop-all.sh, jini-stop.sh, and one for the application (e.g., browser.sh or raytrace.sh).
I haven't even started writing my own programs, this is just to run the example. Folks, developers are going to be slow to adopt Jini until this get easier.

Mikron Tool employees pedal 380 Km. For Greenhope.
Home / News & Events / News / Sponsors wanted!
25 April 2018 - For the 20 years jubilee, a cycle tour for a good cause, you too can help us!
On May 31, 12 "crazy" Mikron Tool employees on their bicycles start in Rottweil to arrive after 4 days in Agno. The occasion for this is the 20 years company anniversary. However, more is involved: with the help of Kilometer-Sponsors an amount as high as possible will be collected for the nonprofit organization Greenhope. Obviously Mikron Tool participates at the event with donations for each cycled Kilometer.
The initiative for this anniversary tour came from a group of "cycling crazy" employees, which wanted to contribute and wanted it to be for a social nonprofit cause. With this the tour Rottweil – Agno "from one company site to the other" became reality. And the company fully supports the effort and donates for each pedaled Kilometer! Besides the athletes hope for the support of their families, friends and colleagues. Are you also going to participate? Go here to the website and the participation form: www.crazyaboutcyclingmto.com .
"SPORTS AGAINST CANCER", that's the goal of Greenhope, a non-for-profit organization, which uses sport events to raise money. Money for Children with cancer, for them to spend carefree moments with their families for activities such as sled dog's trips. Here you find additional information. Besides they also support young, talented athletes. So, maybe small athletes become one-day big athletes. Many of today's famous athletes act as ambassadors for this organization: Lara Gut / Ski world champion, Gilbert Gress / football coach, all Swiss Hockey Clubs in the top league and many more.

Mol, Arthur P. J.
Many writers either glorify globalization or vilify it, particularly for its destructive environmental effects. In this book environmental sociologist Arthur Mol provides a more balanced understanding of the relationship between globalization and environmental quality. Mol bases his arguments on his theory of ecological modernization, which holds that although processes of modernization and globalization often result in environmental degradation, they also can encourage policies and programs designed to arrest degradation and improve environmental quality. Building on earlier ecological modernization studies that focused on Europe, North America, and East and Southeast Asia, Mol takes here a more global perspective. He also addresses the increasing roles of nonstate actors, especially international institutions, nongovernmental organizations, popular movements, and transnational corporations. After examining the confusion created by the failure to distinguish among globalization, global capitalism, and neoliberalism, Mol analyzes both globalization's destructive environmental consequences and its contribution to global environmental reform. Elaborating on the subject of reform, he focuses on three case studies, one involving the economic triad of the European Union, the NAFTA region, and Japan; one involving the relationship between the triad and developing countries; and one involving three developing countries: Vietnam, the Netherlands Antilles, and Kenya.Mol, Arthur P. J. is the author of 'Globalization and Environmental Reform The Ecological Modernization of the Global Economy', published 2003 under ISBN 9780262632843 and ISBN 0262632845.

In general terms, the Romans coined the name 'Gaul' to describe the Celtic tribes of what is now central, northern and eastern France. To the north of these were the tribes of the Belgae, divided from the Gauls by the rivers Marne and the Seine. By the middle of the first century BC, the Atuatuci were located in central Belgium on the plain to the north of Namur and eastwards of Brussels. They were neighboured to the north by the Eburones, to the north-east by the Cugerni, to the east by the Tungri, to the south by the Caerosi and Condrosi, and to the west by the Nervii.
The Belgae would seem to be an eastern branch of Celts who migrated to the Atlantic coast some time after their Gaulish cousins had already established themselves to the south. Their dialect probably used a 'b' or a 'v' sound where their western cousins in Gaul used a 'w' sound, opening up different interpretations for their names. This tribe's name is formed of two elements, 'atua' or 'adua' and 'tuc'. The last element is probably a mention of the god Dagda ('dag'), which frequently crops up in tribal names. The first element is much tougher to understand. It may be an unknown Celtic word that is related to the Latin 'adduco' which means to lead, induce, persuade. Perhaps the tribe were led by Dagda, although this is a guess based on very flimsy evidence.
Julius Caesar stated that the Celts who lived nearest the Rhine waged continual war against the German tribes on the other side. However, Caesar also describes the Aduatuci as being Germans themselves, having descended from the Cimbri and Teutones. What he doesn't mention is that both the Cimbri and Teutones appear to have borne some elements of Celtic society, although they were primarily Germanic. This trait seems to have been common with all Germanic peoples in the Cimbric Peninsula, with them straddling both definitions. The subject is discussed in greater detail in the accompanying feature. The Cimbri tribal name is wholly Celtic, and means 'compatriots' or 'companions' in the sense that they were people with a common background and heritage. So was the tribe itself really Celtic, or perhaps Germanic with a Celtic elite ruling it? Moreover were the Aduatuci at least as Celtic, or even more so, having been living for half a century in territory that was filled with Belgic tribes?
The tribe had an oppidum called Atuatuca (modern Tongeren in north-eastern Belgium), but they also possessed at least one fort. The location of this fort is not known for certain, but various candidates have been proposed over the years, including a previously-abandoned fort at Hastedon (modern St Servais, a little to the north of Namur), and a location to the south of modern Thuin in the Hainault region.

113 - 109 BC
Teutobod and Boiorix lead a large-scale migration of Cimbri and Teutones from their homeland in what later becomes central and northern Denmark. Along the way they pick up Celto-Germanic Helvetii peoples (in territory that later becomes Franconia), but also drop off fragments such as the Atuatuci. Their passage sparks a partial tribal movement by elements of the Boii who invade the Norican region south of the Danube.
57 BC
The Belgae enter into a confederacy against the Romans in fear of Rome's eventual domination over them. They are also spurred on by Gauls who are unwilling to see Germanic tribes remaining on Gaulish territory and are unhappy about Roman troops wintering in Gaul. The Senones are asked by Julius Caesar to gain intelligence on the intentions of the Belgae, and they report that an army is being collected.
Caesar marches ahead of expectations and the Remi, on the Belgic border, instantly surrender, although their brethren, the Suessiones remain enthusiastic about the venture. The Bellovaci are the most powerful among the Belgae, but the confederation also includes the Ambiani, Atrebates, Atuatuci, Caerosi, Caleti, Condrusi, Eburones, Menapii, Morini, Nervii, Paemani, Veliocasses, and Viromandui, along with some unnamed Germans on the western side of the Rhine.
The Battle of the (River) Axona (the modern Aisne in north-eastern France) witnessed the beginning of the end of the Belgic confederation against Rome
Caesar encourages his ally, Diviciacus of the Aeduii, to attack the Bellovaci and divert part of the Belgic forces. The remaining Belgae march against the Romans en masse, The Bellovaci are defeated at the Battle of the Axona, and the Suessiones are forced to surrender, as are the surviving Bellovaci and Ambiani. The Nervii, refusing any surrender, assemble with the Atrebates and Viromandui to offer battle. The Atuatuci are expected to join them, but the Nervii launch an early surprise attack at the Battle of the Sabis (probably the River Selle). The attack surprises the Romans, but they rally and turn potential defeat into a near-massacre of the Nervii.
The Atuatuci, who had been marching to the assistance of the Nervii, return home once they hear that they have missed the battle. They are attacked there by the Romans and are completely defeated. The region inhabited by the Atuatuci on the western side of the Rhine is left entirely depopulated when Caesar sells all surviving tribal members into slavery, which amounts to something like fifty-three thousand individuals. With this action, northern Gaul has been brought under Roman domination, while the victorious legions winter amongst the Andes, Carnutes, and Turones.
The recent assassination of Tasgetius of the Carnutes, born of very high rank and a descendant of chiefs of the tribe, raises the fear in the Romans that the tribe will revolt. Lucius Plancus takes a legion to winter amongst them, but his investigations into the murder are interrupted. About fifteen days after the legions enter winter quarters, Ambiorix and Cativolcus of the Eburones instigate the revolt mentioned above, prompted primarily by pressure from their people. A legion under Quintus Titurius Sabinus and Lucius Aurunculeius Cotta is defeated, with both generals being killed and the survivors committing suicide in their fort to avoid capture. Only a few men escape to relate the news to Caesar. Ambiorix marches his cavalry to the Atuatuci, with the infantry following on. Despite what cannot have been more than a rag-tag guerrilla force of warriors after their complete dismemberment by the Romans in 57 BC, the Atuatuci are roused by tales of his victory and then so are the Nervii. Together they launch an attack on the legion of Cicero, razing much of his fort and hard-pressing the defenders.
Word of this reaches Marcus Crassus amongst the Bellovaci, just twenty-five miles away, and Caius Fabius also marches from the lands of the Morini, with both forces having to negotiate their way through the lands of the Atrebates along the way. Caesar arrives to relieve Cicero and is attacked by about 60,000 Gauls. Despite the massive disparity in numbers compared to Caesar's own 7,000, the Gauls are put to flight with great losses, although the Romans suffer casualties of ten per cent. This defeat must surely signal the end for what little remains of the Atuatuci.
The gentle rolling landscape of the Limberg region would have made idea pasture and farming land for the Belgic tribes, but its proximity to the Maas would have provided the woods and swamps which served as a refuge in times of need
The Atuatuci are not mentioned again in history but, curiously, a tribe called the Tungri appear in this year, occupying very similar territory once they take over the land of the Eburones. Could they be formed of an amalgamation of the Atuatuci and Eburones survivors, both of whom have a Germanic element to their make-up, just like the Tungri? This becomes even more likely when it is remembered that the Tungri have a capital at Atuatuca (modern Tongeren), which is also attested as being the tribal centre of the Atuatuci.


Sponge cakes are among the easiest pastries to make. This superbly simple dish is made from flour, eggs and sugar and a leavening agent. They're firm and aerated like that of your typical kitchen sponge. This particular characteristic makes it a delectable choice for layer of cakes that you could fill with butter cream and decorate with some delectable icing. They are also very versatile as you can fill them with different creams or even saturate them with syrup and fruity jams.
There are over a hundred recipes of Sponge cake out there, offering tons of ideas on how to spice up your ordinary sponges. Ours of course is the Orange Sponge Cake. which infuses the richness, tang and zing of the Orange fruit.
Oranges are well known for their superbly high amount of Vitamin C. Before, Vitamin C was well known for preventing flu and colds. Now however, after thorough researches, the flu-preventing Vitamin is now more famous for being a powerful antioxidant.
Now we are quite very conscious of finding substances that could help boost our health and of course, slowing down aging that we make ourselves busy in buying drugs that are thought to contain high antioxidative chemicals. Why buy synthetic antioxidants, if we can readily get them fresh and unprocessed? Also, why drink antioxidative drugs when we can readily mix antioxidative rich food into our favorite food like the Sponge cake, right?
Apart from the antioxidative capabilities of Vitamin C that's in the orange, it is also great for the skin, and the hair. Together with other sorts of vitamins and minerals they make us appear more beautiful and vibrant even over the years.
So the next time you whip up a crafty meal or a dessert, think of one that's enriched with flavor and filled with nutrients that would truly benefit your body. So what else are you waiting for? Learn how to make a sumptuous Orange Sponge Cake dessert for you, your family and friends and share the nutritious benefits of those zesty oranges!
Preheat oven to 350F and place oven rack in the middle position. Grease (2) 7-inch round pan, bottom and sides and line the bottom with 7-inch round parchment paper and set aside. Measure all ingredients needed for the cake.
In a large mixing bowl, combine glucose, eggs and caster sugar and whisk with electric hand mixer until you rich the ribbon stage. Sift half of your cake flour into the egg mixture and at this point you can use a wire whisk and mix lightly just until the cake flour is blended. Add the remaining cake flour with a pinch of salt and sift into the mixture and lightly mix again until blended. Bang the bowl twice on a flat surface to remove air bubbles.
Add orange zest into the batter. Combine fresh orange juice and oil together and stir, add into the batter. This time you need to use a spatula to fold the batter until evenly incorporated and the oil is no longer visible. Divide the batter evenly in both pans and gently bang each pan against the table for the last time to remove air bubbles.
Place the pan immediately in the oven or else it will not rise properly. Bake in a preheated oven for about 15-18 minutes, or until cakes are golden brown and springy when pressed lightly.
Fire off, let it cool completely on a wire rack before frosting.
In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 box (200g) of frosty whip cream powder and ¾ cup of cold water and whip with electric mixer until fully aerated and double in volume. Add in well-drained orange segments and whip just until blended. And now that you have your cake base and whipped cream, let's assemble the cake.
First, we need a cake board at least 1 inch larger than your cake. Using a metal spatula, spread a small amount of frosting into the center of your cake board and place your first layer in the center. Top with orange whipped cream and spread evenly. Cover with another cake and top with whipped cream and spread evenly until you frost the whole cake. Use extra whipped cream for piping swirls on top of your cake.
This frosting is sufficient to frost the whole 3-Layer-Cake. Decorate top with whipped cream swirls, orange slices and mint leaves. Refrigerate your beautiful orange sponge cake at least 30 minutes before serving.
This Orange Sponge Cake Recipe is light, moist, delicately flavored and very delicious.
Thanks for sharing your orange sponge cake recipe. It looks wonderful.


We must be willing to fail and to appreciate the truth that often "Life is not a problem to be solved, but a mystery to be lived.
I think there is a lot of wisdom in the quotes you listed here Bob. I have not read Peck but he sounds very similar to one of my favorite writers Thomas Moore. Thanks for sharing.
I think he was great as a psychologist, but he was also a stumbling block for me, at least. His work was essentially the opening wedge of "spiritual, but not religious" style that you see today everywhere, including Dr. Wayne Dyer, who I think in some ways has taken his place.
I read TRLT and thought I was reading theology. I thought I was reading the truth about God. Love is not only a feeling and an action, it is a Person. A fulfilled human being is fulfilled in Christ, not in our actions (searching, rut-climbing, etc), but not according to him.
I had a far amount of trouble shaking this stuff out of the place in my head where I keep actual religious knowledge gleaned from Scripture, commentaries, lives of saints and so on.
Thanks, Bob for dedicating this post to me!!!!!
I think he is very wise and we can learn a lot from him.
Great words Bob ... I don't think I have ever said - it is your wisdom and warm advice that really appeals to me. It is a blessing for me to have you on my Blog Roll - often when I think I've "nailed" it your gracious advice often advises me to look beyond my own backyard. May you and your wife and family be mightily blessed this festive season.
Thanks for this, K-Bob! Great quotes here. True, true.
"Love is not only a feeling and an action, it is a Person."
What a great thought TZ.. maybe we can only love with true sacrificial love when we are indwelt by Jesus?
Thanks for the nice words Mark.. I look forward to visiting your place in the new year.

Q: Custom input - Redux form I have the following CustomInput component:
import React from 'react';

const CustomInput = props => (

    {props.title}
    <input
      className="form-input"
      name={props.name}
      type={props.inputType}
      value={props.content}
      onChange={props.controlFunc}
      placeholder={props.placeholder}
    />

);

CustomInput.propTypes = {
  inputType: React.PropTypes.oneOf(['text', 'number']).isRequired,
  title: React.PropTypes.string.isRequired,
  name: React.PropTypes.string.isRequired,
  controlFunc: React.PropTypes.func.isRequired,
  content: React.PropTypes.oneOfType([
    React.PropTypes.string,
    React.PropTypes.number,
  ]).isRequired,
  placeholder: React.PropTypes.string,
};

export default CustomInput;

And this is my form:
import React, { PropTypes } from 'react';
import { Field, reduxForm } from 'redux-form';
import CustomInput from '../components/CustomInput';

const renderMyStrangeInput = field => (
  <CustomInput
    inputType={'number'}
    title={'How many items do you currently own?'}
    name={'currentItems'}
    controlFunc={param => field.input.onChange(param.val)}
    content={{ val: field.input.value }}
    placeholder={'Number of items'}
  />
);

class ItemsForm extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
  }

  render() {
    const { handleSubmit } = this.props;
    return (
      <form className="container" onSubmit={handleSubmit}>

Nuevo Pedido

        <Field name="myField" component={renderMyStrangeInput} />

          <button type="submit" className="btn btn-primary input-group-btn">Submit</button>

      </form>
    );
  }
}

ItemsForm.propTypes = {
};

ItemsForm = reduxForm({
  form: 'Items',
})(ItemsForm);

export default ItemsForm;

I can render my component, but there are some issues with the content type. First, if I set the CustomInput to accepts numbers I get:
he specified value "[object Object]" is not a valid number. The value must match to the following regular expression: -?(\d+|\d+\.\d+|\.\d+)([eE][-+]?\d+)?

Second, if I set the inputType to text, it renders a:
[object Object]

so, the console is giving the following warning:
Warning: Failed prop type: Invalid prop `content` supplied to `CustomInput`.

How can I set the content properly?

A: I think the issue is that you are trying pass strings as objects
<CustomInput
    inputType="number"
    title="How many items do you currently own?"
    name="currentItems"
    controlFunc={param => field.input.onChange(param.val)}
    content={field.input.value}
    placeholder="Number of items"
  />

A: You are passing object via props and you must pass string or number.
content={{ val: field.input.value }} // no!
content={field.input.value} // yes! :)

Low Triglycerides But High LDL
Written by Janet Renee; Updated November 28, 2018
1 Normal Serum Cholesterol
2 Definition of HDL, LDL & VLDL
3 What Is a Good HDL & LDL Reading?
4 Is 288 Considered Dangerous for Your Triglycerides?
You should have your cholesterol measured at least once every five years, according to MedlinePlus. Doing so will give you an idea of your heart-disease risk and alert you to diet and lifestyle changes you may need to make to improve your heart health. If you've received your cholesterol test back and notice you have low triglycerides but elevated low-density lipoprotein, there might be a reason not to panic.
The Villain
It's no wonder you're concerned about your LDL cholesterol test result; high LDL is bad news for your heart. LDL is commonly called the bad cholesterol because it can cause plaque to build up inside your artery walls, which puts you at risk for heart disease. A desirable level is less than 100 milligrams per deciliter, according to MedlinePlus. You fall in the high category if your level is 160 to 189 milligrams per deciliter.
Not a Direct Measurement
The LDL measurement is typically considered the most important aspect of your cholesterol profile when it comes to assessing risk. Before you panic about your results, it's crucial to know that the traditional cholesterol test does not directly measure LDL. The fasting cholesterol test calculates your LDL using a formula called the Friedewald equation. It takes into account your total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein and triglycerides to make an estimate. Because of this limitation, results can be misleading under certain circumstances.
LDL Overestimated
The Friedewald equation is not always accurate at estimating LDL, according to a study in the May 2008 issue of the journal "Archives of Iranian Medicine." Researchers found that when triglyceride is less than 100 milligrams per deciliter, the Friedewald equation "significantly" overestimates LDL. When triglyceride is 150 to 300 milligrams per deciliter, however, the Friedewald equation accurately estimates LDL measurement. This data suggests having low triglyceride may have skewed your LDL results.
Better Method
A better way of estimating LDL may be on its way, according to a study in the November 2013 issue of the "Journal of the American Medical Association." Researchers of the study say they discovered a different formula that measures LDL more accurately than the Friedewald equation. In the meantime, you can request a test that directly measures LDL. Keep in mind that a test providing a direct measurement of LDL is typically more expensive than the traditional fasting cholesterol test.

i know Bullet from Blender and it is fantastic to hear that you ported this library to java.
For me it would be very interesting to hear if i could use jBullet also in Jogl.
If this is possible could you please post an example how to realize this.
Anyway, keep on with this good work and thank you for making this public available!
JBullet is fully independent of any 3D engine or graphics library/binding. You can use it with JOGL just fine. I don't use JOGL so I have no plan to create any JOGL examples. But as both LWJGL and JOGL are OpenGL bindings, it should be pretty similar.
But maybe you can help me a little bit with an example to start.
Any help or a code snippet is really appreciated!
I would get the source code since I believe it contains the sources for all of jezek's demos, which should give you an idea on how to set up the physics and run the simulation. If that doesn't give you what you want, visit the bullet webpage and read bullet's user guide.
I've just compared the ragdoll demo in the Java port and the original Bullet SDK (v2.66). The Java version is WAAAY faster. What gives?
I've been looking at both Bullet's and jezek's code fairly heavily and my first guess would be because jezek uses object pools while a lot of the functions for Bullet create unnecessary new objects.
hmmm: I spoke too soon. I built Bullet on my work computer using Visual Studio 2008 express edition - that's where it ran slowly. I build it at home using Visual Studio 2005 express edition and that ran much better - a little better than the Java port, particularly under high load.
At any rate, this port is pretty impressive for only being a few days work so far. Really looking forward to seeing a website for this project and seeing what we can do with this puppy!
Oooh, I may just have to use this. Awesome!
This is the coolest thing since javax.home.SlicedBread !
It would be nice if you would decoupled the lwjgl demos from the bullet library. Are you working on supporting the multithreaded portion of the library?
It would be nice if you would decoupled the lwjgl demos from the bullet library.
I will enhance the package by generating multiple JARs and actually include them in distribution package.
Are you working on supporting the multithreaded portion of the library?
No, and it's low priority for me, at least for now. The ongoing work from my side is towards complete support of base features and synchronizing with newer releases of Bullet.
I've created applet version of JBullet demos that uses software rendering.
Really great work, the vehicle demo is excellent. How did you do 3d in software? Did you use jpct?
It would be cool if you showed performance by displaying the FPS.
Thanks I've created my own OpenGL-like software renderer. I've found jPCT unusable for that task, because it doesn't use the same projection and lighting as OpenGL, and the rasterizer alone is not publicly available (documented) through API, also I couldn't extract it as it's not opensource library.
May I ask how far are you long in having a full port of Bullet?
AxisSweep3 (much better broadphase collision detection), moving trimeshes, some misc. shapes, ContinuousDynamicsWorld.
I'll leave extras (like multithreaded version, COLLADA support, etc.) to others to develop if someone wants them. It's simply not priority for me.
I've just register to JGO because I'm searching a physic library in java and I've discover your porting effort.
I've played a bit with JBullet, and you have done a very good work so far.
Your last post answer partially my current question : have you a comparison between Bullet and JBullet for features ported or not ?
For my project I'll need motors, so I think I'll port DynamicControlDemo if you have not started with it ?
I might create one later, currently the best is to compare which classes are or are not implemented.
It almost works, but I've a small bug : my joints are not correctly positionned.
Seems fine to me. The second line can use one-parameter mul() but it doesn't hurt either.
If you don't catch the error, you can send me the files, and I can look into it. It can be also bug in JBullet itself, not all code is covered by demos or tested.
I send you the files on your email.
Found the bug, it's on line 123 of TestRig.java, where QuaternionUtil.setRotation must be used instead of direct assign to quaternion fields. This fixed the position problem. There is another bug though, the simulation exhibits some jerkiness, I'll be investigating it further.
I've just found that the rotation matrix wasn't good, but i didn't go further.

2 women accused of aiding escaped convicts

New Mexico State Police Chief Pete Kassetas, left, and Corrections Secretary Gregg Marcantel discuss the escape and capture of two inmates at a news conference on Monday, March 14, 2016, in Albuquerque, N.M. (AP Photo/Mary Hudetz).

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — Two women have been arrested for allegedly aiding and harboring two escaped convicts last week, New Mexico State police said Wednesday.
Michelle Abeyta, 40, of Albuquerque was booked into jail while Patricia Petrushkin, 51, of Humble, Texas, is facing extradition. Petrushkin was taken into custody at a Houston airport, police said.
It was unclear Wednesday night if either woman had a lawyer.
Abeyta allegedly turned in one of the fugitives after a three-day manhunt launched when Joseph Cruz and Lionel Clah escaped from a fortified prisoner transport van in southeastern New Mexico. Both were taken back into custody last weekend in Albuquerque.
State Police said Abeyta allegedly allowed Clah to stay at her apartment while Petrushkin allegedly harbored Clah and Cruz in her Albuquerque hotel room and gave them money and clothing.
Cruz, 32, has been serving a life sentence for a first-degree murder conviction since 2007 for killing a man over drugs in Raton in northern New Mexico. Clah, 29, was serving time for armed robbery and other crimes.
Cruz and Clah were being taken from the state penitentiary in Santa Fe to the southern region of the state when they fled the prison van during a fuel stop in the small desert town of Artesia around 8:30 p.m. on March 9.
Authorities discovered the men were missing around four hours later.
Investigators said they believe the men picked their handcuffs, but it's still not known how they broke free from their leg irons, ditched their white prison jumpsuits and changed clothes, and got a ride headed north to Albuquerque, a roughly three-hour drive. The two made it to an Albuquerque hotel by 2:30 a.m.
Cruz was taken into custody in Albuquerque after a brief foot chase Friday evening, while Clah surrendered to police Saturday at an Albuquerque apartment.
Two unidentified guards were placed on administrative leave pending the outcome of the investigation into the escape, state corrections officials said.

I posted a couple of shots of a Czech-style nymph earlier today in the Facebook Partridge Hook Forum and mentioned that I fish sometimes them in conjunction with a 'heavily weighted point fly' (the lighter-dressed flies taking up the role of middle and top droppers). The heavier point fly holds the task of 'depth-charging', allowing the more lightly-dressed flies to drift a little more naturally. As such, I received a few messages asking what I might use for the point fly as, at the end of the day, I'm already using two nymphs tied on size #10 or #8 Partridge Czech Nymph (CZ) hooks…I mean, how much bigger can we get!?
Here's a favourite I use often when grayling are tight to the riverbed. Tied on a Partridge of Redditch size #10 Czech Nymph (I opt for the standard, thicker gauge for additional weight), with a 5mm tungsten bead and with a section of square lead under-body (which also allows for the creation of a nice taper). I've included a photo of the under-body, prior to tying in a length of latex for the body, and a simple thorax of 1) Hends Micro-Flash Dubbing and 2) brown Wapsi Rabbit Dubbing (split thread). Pick out a few fibres from both dubbs, and you have yourself a nice juicy caddis larvae imitation. The pattern simply comes alive when wet.
There are a load of tyers out there who tie this style of pattern with a hell of a lot more beauty than I, but as this specific pattern is used as a sacrificial-style offering, I ensure they're quick to tie, meaning losing them via hook-ups on the riverbed (and you will!) are a little less heartbreaking.
…and this is more like it, drenched and buggy looking!

Plot: A Japanese police unit who use giant anthropomorphic robots (called Labors) is caught up in a political struggle between the civilian authorities and the military when a terrorist act is blamed on an Air Force jet. With the aid of a government agent, the team gets close to a terrorist leader to stop things from going out of control when after the military is impelled to impose martial law.
The first Patlabor film took place in the summer. Mamoru Oshii took advantage of that by giving us a bright color pallete, and scenes that always managed to describe the heat to us. This second film, very similar in story structure, takes place in the winter. And again Oshii has revamped his production design to suit the season. This film has a greyed-down, sleeker look, and it fills its scenes with unexpected snowfalls and people crowded around heaters for warmth. The mood of the film is similarily toned down; whereas the first film closely resembled the original OAV series, this second one is a lot sleeker. The characters are older and more sedate, and the situation depicted is perhaps more cleverly crafted.
Essentially, the Patlabor films are cautionary tales against the dangers of our dependence on machines. But Oshii arranges these films with a genial flair for entertainment; the cautionary tales are under the guise of deft political thrillers, featuring the lovable Patlabor characters (led by Commander Goto, a modern-day Sherlock Holmes). It is the combination of clever and endearing characters and tight mystery-thriller plots that gives this series its luster.

Q: Storing passwords in Castle Windsor configuration file? I have the following:
interface IDefectRepository { /* ... */ }
class MyDefectRepository : IDefectRepository
{
    public MyDefectRepository(string url, string userName, string password)
    {
        // ...
    }

    // ...
}

I'm using <parameters> to pass the constructor parameters from Web.config. Is there any way that I can store the password encrypted in the Web.config file? Other suggestions?

A: Try inheriting MyDefectRepositoryWithEncryptedPasswords from MyDefectRepository. In the MyDefectRepositoryWithEncryptedPasswords constructor decrypt the password and pass it to the MyDefectRepository constructor, like so:
class MyDefectRepositoryWithEncryptedPasswords : MyDefectRepository
{
    public MyDefectRepositoryWithEncryptedPasswords(string url, string userName, string encryptedPassword)
        : base(url, userName, Decrypt(encryptedPassword))
    {
    }

    public static string Decrypt(string encrypted)
    {
        // Do whatever...
    }
}

Anyway, I don't think you should store encrypted passwords with two-way encryption methods. You should use some sort of hashing (of the cryptographic kind) and compare the hashes. That would require changing your constructor to receive not the password, but its hash.

A: You could inject the password via a ISubDependencyResolver (sample1, sample2) which would get the password from an encrypted section in your web.config.
