Tag: Rylander Theatre
The Friends of the Rylander Theatre, winners of a 2021 Georgia Historical Records Advisory Council (GHRAC) grant, have partnered with the Digital Library of Georgia (DLG) to make materials documenting the Americus, Georgia theater's history from 1921 to 1957 available freely online.
Rylander Theatre Special Collections was digitized and described as part of the DLG's competitive digitization subgrant program, broadening partner participation amongst nonprofit cultural heritage institutions across the state.
The items in this collection show the "first life" (1921- c. 1951) of the Rylander Theatre and the various types of entertainment the establishment hosted, including live musicals, vaudeville shows, and movies (both silent and "talkies"). In addition, a 1929 school club card and a 1930 theater coupon book show a detailed picture of Depression-era Americus, the popular tastes of this South Georgia town, and details of how local businesses sought to incentivize commerce in their communities during dire times.
Other materials, like photographs, programs, and fliers, provide factual information like names and dates on programs, visual and aesthetic information such as the design of movie advertisement floats in the lobby of the Rylander. The interior design and decoration of the soda shop owned by local businessman George Saliba attached to the Rylander Theatre (and identified in the 1937 Americus city directory as "George's Place") are essential to researchers who wish to fill in details related to life in south Georgia. There are also key examples of rural southern movie theater culture within the Jim Crow era, where establishments like the Rylander accommodated segregated audiences and the impact of the Hays Code (the motion picture industry's self-imposed production code implemented between 1934 and 1968).
Researchers interested in the early life of young Jimmy Carter (the Rylander Theatre's most famous local patron) would also find the materials in this collection enlightening. Those researchers can dig even deeper into advertisements for Rylander Theatre programming that appear in issues of the Americus Times-Recorder digitized for presentation in Georgia Historic Newspapers. And Carter researchers will be able to connect his lifelong enthusiasm in movies to his presidential daily diary.
Jacob A. Ross, Park Ranger at the Jimmy Carter National Historical Park in Plains, Georgia, describes the importance of this collection:
"As a park ranger for the Jimmy Carter National Historical Park, I consider the Rylander Theatre's history of being part of President Carter's history, as the young Carter would often attend shows at the Theatre during the same era these items were created. As a historian interested in southern American culture, this collection has been an enlightening and revealing addition to the unique entertainment and racial histories of theater venues in southwest Georgia…These items also appeal to communities looking to perform a similar restoration of their local theater."

Description: Original photo of movie display in the entryway of the Rylander Theatre when it was under Martin Theatre management. The Martin Theatre chain was comprised of more than sixty-five theaters in Georgia, Alabama, and Florida owned by R. E. Martin of Columbus, Georgia. The movies on display include After The Thin Man (1936), starring William Powell and Myrna Loy; and The Plainsman (1936), starring Gary Cooper and Jean Arthur. The display also announces that the "Imperial Hawaiians," a group of male musicians, were scheduled to perform onstage. The "R" at the top of the display as well as the architectural details at the top of the photograph point to the location of this photo as the Rylander Theatre, as opposed to the Martin Theatre that opened up across town in 1957.

Digital Library of Georgia Awards Digitization Grants to 8 Georgia Cultural Heritage Institutions Across the State
Eight institutions (and nine projects) are recipients of the ninth set of service grants awarded in a program intended to broaden partner participation in the DLG and engage with diverse institutions across the state of Georgia. The DLG solicited proposals for historic digitization projects in a statewide call, and applicants submitted proposals for projects with a cost of up to $7,500.00. In addition, DLG staff will provide free digitization, metadata, and hosting services so that users can find more of Georgia's diverse history online for free. This subgranting program was presented the 2018 Award for Excellence in Archival Program Development by a State Institution by the Georgia Historical Records Advisory Council (GHRAC).
Preference in the selection process was given to proposals from institutions that had not yet collaborated with the DLG. As a result, the Rylander Theatre and the National Museum of the Mighty Eighth Air Force are new partners for the DLG.
This year's slate of projects provides something for everyone: art enthusiasts will be able to find information about a vibrant South Georgia community theater. Folklorists will discover materials that focus on rural Georgians and Southern folklife, including African Americans and white people. Genealogists will be able to locate church records that contain perhaps the only information recorded about enslaved people. History researchers will have access to public domain photographs of prominent, high-profile politicians and public servants and periodicals about Southern Baptist women living in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Primary sources and publications about Georgia World War II military history and journals documenting how a small group of Methodists served the Freedman's Aid Society during Reconstruction in Georgia will be available online.
The recipients and their projects include:
University of Georgia Alexander Campbell King Law Library Archives & Special Collections (Athens, Ga.)
DLG will digitize and describe a collection of photographs taken by the University of Georgia School of Law's staff, including its Communications and Public Relations Department, or by photographers hired to capture prominent event speakers encompassing fifty years of legal and political history.
Atlanta History Center (Atlanta, Ga.)
Digitization of 149 oral history interviews conducted by Georgia State University students enrolled in Dr. John Burrison's folklore curriculum between 1969 and 1970. These students interviewed rural Georgians and Southeasterners from rural and often isolated areas, where little documentation survives. Interview topics include crafts, storytelling, superstitions, jokes, remedies, songs and ballads, and traditions. The body of interviews provides unique insight into underrepresented Southern cultures during the twentieth century and will contribute to the teaching, study, and presentation of southern folklore.
Columbia Theological Seminary (Decatur, Ga.)
Digitization of Lexington Presbyterian Church (Lexington, Ga.) records, 1822-1916. The Lexington Presbyterian Church records document the names of enslaved members of the church. It is not unlikely that these are the only existing records that these people ever lived for some of the names provided. There are also records of prominent educators and politicians who resided in Oglethorpe County, Georgia.
Digitization of Henry Newton papers, 1842-1900. Henry Newton was a Presbyterian preacher raised in Athens who graduated from the University of Georgia in 1841 and the Columbia Theological Seminary in 1845. He served numerous northeast Georgian churches from 1845-1897.
Mercer University Archives and Special Collections (Macon, Ga.)
Digitization of the Mission Messenger (1895-1921), published by the Women's Baptist Missionary Union of Georgia. The periodical is a significant source of information about white Baptist women during the Progressive era of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
National Museum of the Mighty Eighth Air Force (Pooler, Ga.)
Digitization of materials that focus on the activity at Savannah Army Air Base (Hunter Field), Savannah, Georgia, to prepare the Eighth Air Force for combat following its activation on January 28, 1942.
Pitts Theology Library (Decatur, Ga.)
Digitization of bound conference journals dating from 1867 to 1939, produced by the Methodist Episcopal Church (MEC), a Northern church that established missions in Georgia during the Reconstruction Era. The church worked closely with the Freedman's Aid Society to find schools and colleges for the formerly enslaved while integrating the then-separate Black and white churches into the same conference. MEC churches were established in both rural and urban areas throughout the state.
Friends of the Rylander Theatre (Americus, Ga.)
Digitization of materials belonging to the Rylander Theatre that document downtown Americus, Georgia, and the role of the local theater in the rural south spanning from 1921-1957, including items related to the Rylander Theatre's "first life" before it went dark for 40 years in 1951.
University of North Georgia. Special Collections & Archives, Dahlonega Campus (Dahlonega, Ga.)
Digitization of the North Georgia College Cyclops yearbook collection, focusing on volumes dating from 1975-1995. This subgrant will complete the digitization of the last twenty yearbooks for North Georgia College, which ended in 1995 (in 1996, the institution's name changed to North Georgia College & State University).

Arthur Powell Davies did not start out as a Unitarian minister. He came to the United States in 1928 from England, as a minister in search of a "freer" strain of Methodism. Once he found his home in the Unitarian movement, he became one of the leading figures in the American Unitarian Association (AUA) and was an advocate for institutional growth and change throughout his career. He advocated for a move away from the view of Unitarianism as just another sect of Christianity, proclaiming, "If we are 'just another Protestant denomination,'then we have no distinction and no justification for larger scale advance. If we are what Channing called 'the universal church' . . . then we must begin to be that church."
Davies was a popular and talented preacher who was greatly involved in the social and political issues of his day. He wrote extensively in favor of the American pursuit of freedom, and when McCarthyism ran rampant through the country, his well-known anti-Communist credibility allowed him to speak out against questionable governmental tactics without calling his own patriotism into question. By the 1950s, he was well established in Washington, D.C. as the minister of All Soul's Church, Unitarian, with influence that extended to several Supreme Court justices and even to the office of the President. Once he had been accepted as a powerful presence in Washington, Davies applied a "change from within" strategy to matters of racial desegregation. He worked to establish an integrated youth club and led a city-wide campaign to patronize restaurants that were racially integrated, while at the same time he maintained his membership in a prestigious whites-only gentleman's club, hoping to influence the power elite through institutional channels.
Meanwhile, under the leadership of Davies, the All Souls Church, Unitarian began spinning off "daughter" churches, planting new congregations throughout the greater D.C. area. He and his wife, Muriel Davies, nurtured these new institutions. His passion for his work kept him from slowing down even after major surgery in 1953. He died several years later, at fifty-five, from a blood clot that resulted in hemorrhaging.

Spain / Madrid / Madrid / Apartment Ref. 231653
Apartment for rent in the centre of Madrid

Dining-room (3/12)
Bathroom (6/12)
Environment (10/12)
Dining-room (3 / 12)
Bathroom (6 / 12)
Environment (10 / 12)
50 sq metres apartment located in the historical and romantic area of Madrid de Los Austrias, one of Madrid's most desirable neighbourhoods, very close to the Royal Palace, Opera theatre, Plaza Mayor and Puerta del Sol, the real heart of the city. It is surrounded by historical buildings, restaurants, traditional tapas bars, shops and parks. Ideal for business executives and visits to Madrid. The apartment is on the 5th floor of a building with two elevators and a door man, central heating. Fully furnished with TV, a bedroom with double bed, and a living room with 1 person sofa bed. American kitchen with refrigerator, stove, microwave, washing machine. Full equipped bathroom. Internet and phone with free local calls. The transportation connections are perfect with the metro and bus just a few metres away from the apartment. There are plenty of restaurants and shops in the surrounding streets. The closer metro stations are Latina (line 5), Opera (line 2), Tirso de Molina (line 1) and Plaza de España (lines 10, 2 and 3)
The Latina area is an attractive and often ignored part of old Madrid. In and around this area are the origins of Madrid. Its difficult to put precise boundaries on La Latina, because, like its immediate neighbours, streets are narrow and wind a lot, but for convenience, we will define its boundaries as the calles Bailen and Toledo, the Plaza Mayor and the Puetra de Toledo. Apart from being one of the most attractive parts of the city to wander about in, it is home to many particularly fine tapas bars, restaurants, and many spots for nightlife and social life centered in the plazas de San Andres, de la Cebada and de la Paja.
From San Francisco el Grande church, go up Carrera de San Francisco street. At the plaza de San Andrés, dominated by the dome of the Capilla de San Isidro, is the San Isidro Museum which shows the different of Madrid through the ages, from its beginnings as a Muslim stronghold to its birth as a metropolis. San Isidro Museum provides an account of Madrid´s archaeological past and the material, social and spiritual heritage of the various cultures that have lived here. It also contains an exhibition of the art and traditions associated with the patron saint of Madrid, Saint Isidro.
The street Cava Baja nearby has excellent restaurants, among which the reknown Lucio, and fashionable bars.
At the Plaza de la Cebada is the local covered market originally made of iron and glass, it was demolished in 1956 and rebuilt as we can see today. Look out for the calle Almendro and the famous tavern with the same name.
Not far is the Plaza de Cascorro, heart of the popular Sunday street market, or Rastro.plaza de la paja madrid
Plaza de la Paja
Here the visitor will be reminded that while the Plaza Mayor was once a small dusty square on the edge of town, the Plaza de la Paja (Hay) was were the real city centre lay. Its name derives from the fact that it served as the auctioning centre for hay being resold by the caretakers and foremen of convent lands, who thus paid their use of lands with a tithe, for the privilege of using church lands.
It is a quiet atmospheric place with cafés and terraces.
The walled garden of the Prince of Anglona is located next to the like-named palacio. It is a haven of tranquil repose from which to observe the goings-on in the Plaza de la Paja.
From this square one can seen the Mudejar-style tower of the church of San Pedro El Viejo (the Elder), from the 14th century. Besides the artistic and religious interest it inspires, there is a legend surrounding the church: it says that the first bell to ring from the tower bellfry raised and hung itself up in the tower unaided. The story tells that when it was hoisted on many backs and the attempt was made to bring it up, it got stuck among the tower walls. The workers gave up and went to take a break from their labour; when they returned the next day, to their great surprise, the belll was already hanging in its designated place.
The charming plaza del Alamillo (small poplar tree) is not far. It is where the seat of the Arab court was thought to have stood, in the days when Madrid was Mayrit, the Arab city founded in the 9th century. There is a mexican restaurant on the corner with a priviledge terrace during the good weather days.

Written by The Barman on 14 June 2016 .
Garage-punk pioneers and stand out performers at 2012's inaugural Dig It Up! Invitational in Australia, The Sonics, return Down Under this September-October at the invite of Wollongong's Yours & Owls Festival and for headline shows around the country.
The Sonics laid down the blueprint for garage-rock back in 1963 with the release of their first single The Witch. They followed that up with even up with even more grease and oil soaked nuggets in "Psycho", "Boss Hoss", "Cinderella", "Strychnine", "He's Waitin'", "Shot Down" and "Have Love Will Travel" before calling it quits in 1968. Reuniting briefly in 1972 and again in 1980, The Sonics then took permanent leave while the rest of the world caught up with them.
Written by The Barman on 22 January 2015 .
Here's a taste of the forthcoming studio album by garage rock pioneers the Sonics. Recorded at Seattle's Soundhouse Studios with killer producer Jim Diamond behind the controls, It will be their first LP release since 1980 and first album of all-new material since 1967.
Yeah, it's obvious that this has been a long time coming. Compiler and Real O Mind Records chief Geoff Ginsberg toyed with the idea of a Scott Morgan box set and put a version together - as a one-off for friends - many years ago. But now the real deal's here, with the involvement of Ginsberg as compiler and UK label Easy Action honcho Carlton Sandercock as issuer, and you'd be a fool to miss it.


Overall, I actually really like this trailer, as a trailer. It's dark and grim and gloomy, and looks very much like a movie I would like to watch, even if I have mixed feelings about director Zack Snyder as a filmmaker. What gives me pause is that I'm not sure how I feel about it as a Batman and a Superman movie.
The Batman side feels fine. He's tends to be a brooding, serious fellow, and we've seen him go real, real dark, especially in recent years. But they're setting up Superman as a heel, as a villain, as an invading outsider alien. We're used to seeing him as the ultimate Boy Scout, as the ultimate good guy, so it'll be interesting to see how people react to that. It does, however, appear that they're borrowing heavily from Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns arc, which is badass—if you're going to lift from anything, might as well lift from the best.
Despite any misgivings, however, this definitely looks like a movie I want to see. In all honesty, I was going to see this regardless, but it's nice to actually be excited about it (I'm meh on Man of Stees). Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice stars Ben Affleck and Henry Cavill and opens everywhere March 25, 2016.

Clear as Ice - #HockeyFiction Prompt Three
Prompt three is shot. Prompt one is here. Prompt two is here.
"You know what this means, right?" Jay said through the screen.
Sienna put away the clothes that they had decided against. The team marketing person had told her they'd have a jersey there for her at the arena, and to plan for it to be cold inside. Despite having lived in the DC area since high school, she'd never been to the arena. She'd never gone to a sports game, never been to a concert big enough to be in this arena. It was kind of exciting.
Jay's face on the screen was staring at her. Sienna had assumed it was a rhetorical question that didn't require her participation. "What?" she said.
"If the Domes lose, they'll decide you are a jinx."
"Okay," Sienna shrugged. She had lived her whole life ignoring hockey. Going back to that wouldn't be much of a stretch. Her mentions on social media had been a lot, a mix of folks mansplaining hockey to her, telling her she was too stupid to understand it anyway, and well, those were the nicer ones. But Sienna had been on the internet a while. And while sports fans were particularly creative in some of their threats, she could handle it. She was good at blocking and good at ignoring. If anything, this week had shown her that she should have listened to Jay and ignored the ex trying to score points off of her.
Wait no, that was old Sienna thinking. She had been invited to a hockey game, was getting a free jersey, and a chance to talk to teen girls who played hockey, and a chance to meet a hockey player. So, if anything the lesson here was to be open to new experiences.
Jay was still starting at her. "Seriously, Jay, it will be fine. Either they win the fish game-"
"Piranhas. They are called the piranhas."
Sienna leaned closer to the camera. "Piranhas are fish aren't they?"
Jay sighed. "Yes."
"So, either they win the fish game, and I'm a good luck charm and they have to invite me back forever. Or they lose and I'm a jinx and I still got to go to a hockey game for free. It's fine." She smiled.
"Okay. Try not to call them fish at the game."
Sienna smiled and ended the call. She knew Jay was going to text her to remind her not to call them fish. But Sienna liked calling them fish.
Sienna's seats were in the second row just around the corner from one of the goals. She had gone live for a bit, so show what a great view of the action she had, and also to show how fast the hockey was. She had watched a few clips before coming. Okay, she had tried watching a whole game but she had gotten distracted. But in person it was so fast. And you could feel the chill, and hear the skates and sticks and bodies moving across the ice. Plus the entire stadium was rocking. Fans cheered, the screens planted overhead constantly told you to cheer, or make noise, or stomp, or clap. Music played anytime the game stopped, which happened more than she had expected.
Daisy from the team appeared on the cement stairs next to her. "Having a good time?"
"I am!" Sienna said. So far there had only been one goal, for the Piranhas. But it had been during a penalty so the Domes had been short a player, which was kind of a fascinating rule. Sienna still was relying on a lot of the information they put across the screens to figure out what was going on, or the music cues, but the goal thing had been very clear. Being in the second row, she was near enough to both see and hear the players thud against the boards and the glass.
"We're coming up on the end of the period. The junior girls team will come out and scrimmage on the ice, so keep watching. They will only go for about ten minutes, then I'll grab you and bring you back to say hi to them, and - oh-"
Daisy's eyes fixed on the ice so Sienna turned and looked. Two players, a blue jerseyed Dome player and a white and green jerseyed Piranha player were skating towards the goal. The Dome player had the puck and the Piranha player kept trying to grab it with his stick, but the Dome player kept shifting it away while still moving towards the goal. The other players were all skating towards them, but they were out in front of the pack. The Dome player shifted again, and it almost felt like the whole crowd hushed for a second. He flicked the puck towards the goal.
The goalie hunched in a way that seemed to make him look both more compact and larger at the same time as the puck flew towards him. From this angle Sienna could only see that the puck was moving towards his arm. Looking up at the screen overhead wasn't much clearer, but a siren sounded and the whole stadium cheered. Sienna watched the replay on the screen. The puck had gone into the tiny bit of space between the goalie's arm and the bar of the goal.
"Kunyk has such a great snap shot," Daisy said quietly.
Sienna nodded and made a mental note to figure out what a snap shot was. But now the teams were tied. So, that was good.
The remaining minute of the period was less eventful. As it ticked down to the last seconds, the players themselves seemed to skate slower, as if they needed a break.
The two junior girls teams came out, each adorned in mini Dome's jerseys, one set blue, and the other white. They looked a little lost and overwhelmed, although, with the full face shields, it was kind of hard to tell, so maybe Sienna just imagined they were overwhelmed. Some of the fans had left immediately to go do other things during the break, but the ones who remained leaned forward and cheered any time one of the teams got close to a goal. It was pretty cute. The players waved as they wrapped up their scrimmage. Sienna waved back. Daisy returned and led her up and then, through a door marked staff, that got them into an area that was much more quiet.
"Oh," Daisy said, "I should warn you that Albert doesn't like doing mid-game stuff, especially against the Piranhas, so if he seems like grumpy or anything don't take it personally."
"Okay," Sienna said. That didn't seem ominous at all.

Use of capital receipts to fund redundancies a "necessary evil" say councils
by Colin Marrs
in 151 News · Funding
— 6 Mar, 2019
Councils have defended their use of capital receipts to fund redundancy packages, in the face of criticism from an article published on the Huffington Post website.
In 2015, the then chancellor George Osborne introduced new flexibilities allowing councils to spend capital receipts on transformation projects.
Earlier this week, HuffPost published the results of an investigation carried out with the Bureau for Investigative Journalism, which found that councils have spent £115m on redundancy payments since the power was introduced.
The article said: "The local government funding crisis has become so dire that councils are being forced to sell thousands of public spaces, such as libraries, community centres and playgrounds.
"In a double blow to communities, some local authorities are using the money raised from selling off buildings and land to pay for hundreds of redundancies, including in vital frontline services."
Through a series of Freedom of Information requests, the bureau discovered 64 councils in England have spent a total of £381m through the capital receipt flexibilities, with, £115 million spent on redundancy payments.
This means though that just 1.2% of councils' total of £9.3m of capital receipts were spent on making redundancies over the period.
At £23m, Birmingham City Council was cited in the report as the council spending the highest amount of capital receipts on redundancies.
In a statement to Room151, the authority said that due to austerity it has been forced to reduce its workforce by 12,000 people, "with the use of compulsory redundancies always a last resort".
It said: "The redundancies help meet the financial challenge in the long term – and the council has used the capital powers available across local government to it to ensure it can fund this course of action and deliver the necessary ongoing savings."
Another council, London Borough of Haringey, spent £8m of capital receipts on redundancy payments, according to the report.
A spokesperson for the council said "The council has utilised allocated capital receipts to meet the costs associated with these redundancies, in order to make possible ongoing revenue savings.
"This is unfortunately a necessary part of the council's business and financial planning."
Commenting on the HuffPost investigation, local government finance consultant Stephen Sheen, said: "The flexible use of capital receipts initiative is a temporary opportunity to cross over the revenue/capital divide, so that capital receipts can be used to finance revenue expenditure.
"However, this is only possible where the revenue expenditure is intended to generate more than commensurate future savings.
"As redundancies are unfortunately one of the key mechanisms for generating future savings in staff costs but involve incurring upfront expenses, they are a clear candidate for the flexible application of capital receipts.
"The theory is therefore sound.
"However, as with all things Prudential Framework, the freedoms to act effectively also bring the opportunity for authorities to act ineffectively (whether accidentally or deliberately)."
He said that if the framework was allowed to operate freely, the split between revenue and capital expenditure would not be required, "as affordability assessments of all projects would all be made equally in relation to their lifetime impact on revenue".
Government data shows that English local authorities gained £3.3bn in capital receipts during 2017/18.
However, this is still lower than levels in the years before the financial crisis – with £4.0bn recorded in 2007/08.

Norm flouting during Puja may steer Bengal into third wave, say experts
"The third wave may wreak havoc again across the country particularly the states that are getting prepared for festive seasons. We are requesting the people to avoid crowd, use masks and get vaccinated in order to prevent yet another tsunami of pandemic in Bengal,"

With fluctuating spurt in Covid cases in the state experts fear that the third wave may wreak havoc again similar to the second wave during MayJune if the Covid appropriate behavior (CAB) is violated mainly during the Durga puja.
About a month ago, an expert panel, set up by an institute under the Ministry of Home Affairs, had predicted the third wave hitting the country anytime between September and October and suggested ramping up vaccination.
The committee of experts, constituted by the National Institute of Disaster Management (NIDM), had also said that children would have a similar risk as adults since paediatric facilities, doctors and equipment like ventilators, ambulances, are nowhere close to what may be required in case a large number of children become infected.
Medical experts in Kolkata have also pressed an alarm button urging the administration to force people to follow CAB like vaccinations, using of masks, hand sanitisations and social distancing.
"The third wave may wreak havoc again across the country particularly the states that are getting prepared for festive seasons. We are requesting the people to avoid crowd, use masks and get vaccinated in order to prevent yet another tsunami of pandemic in Bengal," said Dr Sukumar
Mukherjee, general medicine expert and a leading member of the global advisory board (GAB) formed by the state government a year ago. Dr Samiran Panda, senior epidemiologist attached with the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), told The Statesman from Delhi, "We have to strongly follow the Covid-19 protocols including vaccinations, wearing masks and maintain social distancing to fight the third wave. We can't stop festivals belonging to any religions but at the same time people will have to be conscious about the CAB."
It is said that the third wave could peak in October with 3.2 lakh cases per day, according to the report submitted to the MHA in August. But this has now been complicated by the new and more virulent mutated variants of SARS Cov-2 that have the ability to escape immunity and in some cases even the vaccines, it said. Children with Covid-19 infection have largely been seen to be asymptomatic or develop mild symptoms. But if children have comorbidities, it becomes dangerous.
According to the Union health ministry, out of all the children hospitalised due to Covid19, 60-70 per cent had comorbidities or low immunity. CoWin portal data showed, out of the total 5,29,24,709 vaccinated so far till 21 September in Bengal, 76, 64,159 have got first dose while the rest have got the second

The Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF), a South African political party, launched its election manifesto on 2 February 2019 in the country's Gauteng province. The national election is scheduled for 8 May 2019.
The party claims that "landlessness and joblessness among black South Africans are at crisis levels, posing the biggest challenges that confront South African society today".
The EFF's claim applies to a worldwide comparison, the party's national communications manager Sixolise Gcilishe confirmed. She referred us to three documents to support the statement.
The common thread in these documents is work done by Professor Martin Gustafsson, an education economist and member of the Research on Socioeconomic Policy group at the University of Stellenbosch. However, Gustafsson does not agree that his work supports the EFF's claim.
"In fact, as far as secondary [school] completion is concerned – that's essentially what this is about – we're fairly normal for a middle-income country," he said.


A closed box is not best suited for low frequency reproduction as the roll-off can be as low as 12dB/oct. below the -3dB point (F3, fsb), which means that the sound pressure level drops rapidly below the -3dB point. However actual roll-off is largely determined by the enclosure volume in conjunction with the Q factor of the loudspeaker, the lower the Q factor the lower the roll-off. A closed box has a few advantages though which are quite suitable for our design. For example a woofer with a low Q factor offers a very fast and accurate response in small closed box. Furthermore the air inside the closed box will limit the excursion of the woofer at low frequencies.
Mounting the XLS10 in a 30-liter enclosure means that the total quality factor, that is the Q factor of the woofer and the enclosure combined (Qtc) drops to about 0.3. Normally a value between 0.5 and 0.7 is considered ideal for accurate low frequency reproduction from a closed box. Hence in this case the 30-liter enclosure has a F3 of 78Hz and a very low Q factor which means the frequency response extends far down and the slope of the frequency response is reduced to about -6db/octave below F3 as per the below shown graphs.
In order to determine whether the XLS10 in a 30-liter closed box is able to meet the other requirements, we have to model the box again, but now factoring in the power input to the woofer. The requirement we set is a spl of at least 100dB at 20Hz. The XLS10 can handle up to 300-watts nominal input. But that number is meaningless if we don't also factor in the maximum excursion. As obviously the woofer needs to be kept below its maximum excursion. Plotting the graphs for a power input of 300-watts yields the following results as shown in the graphs below.
As can be seen from the second graph the woofer already reaches maximum excursion at 30Hz, at 20Hz it is increased to 17.4mm, well over the safe limit. Hence it is safe to say that even with a low total Q of 0.3 the XLS10 is unable to produce 100db at 20Hz in a closed box of 30-liter volume. Modeling the box again for 60-liter, double the volume, or 15-liter, half the volume, yields similar results. Obviously the next thing to try is a vented box, of similar volume, to see whether that yields better results.

The second annual Latino Health Summit brought in hundreds of the state's Latino residents to highlight health care access issues and to push for the services they deserve.
The two-day event at the York Expo Center, sponsored by Harrisburg-based Latino Connection, began Wednesday, April 17, with multiple keynote speakers, several organizations and a wide range of health service providers.
"When the team and I decided to take on this endeavor, we did it with one purpose only: to connect resources to the most vulnerable communities in the state," said Latino Connection CEO George Fernandez.

Throughout the day Wednesday, there were a variety of sessions, including yoga, lessons about unconscious bias and information about access to integral health services and immigration and refugee services.
Roughly 450 individuals registered for the summit, as did about 60 vendors.
Although there were many events, one message remained prominent: Latinos face inequity regarding access to health care.
State Office of Health Equity Director David Saunders wouldn't say whether health equity has improved in recent years, but he said the conversation has been much more robust over the last decade.

Discussions Wednesday were partially based on data within the office's 2019 Health Equity Report, which highlighted problems regarding minorities' ability to have a fair shot at health.
An individual's health is about 20% determined by environmental or social factors, according to the report. Social determinants of health include housing, education, discrimination and socioeconomic status.
On average, Latinos make $18,000 less annually than whites in Pennsylvania, according to the report. The group also has lower graduation rates and higher poverty levels and teenage pregnancy rates.

"It's historic," Saunders said. "Those that have been given the opportunities tend to do well. It comes down to economics, power, which individuals get the best education and which live in the communities that have environments where health is easier to attain."
In part because of such economic factors, the study reported, 14% of Latinos are uninsured; 21% can't see a physician because of the cost; 15% haven't taken prescribed medication because of the cost; and 23% have health care bills that are being paid off over time.
"If we don't start now, we will have generations and generations who continue to have poor health outcomes," said Aerielle Waters, the OHE's public health program administrator.
Those working to address such issues, including the OHE, are emphasizing the dissemination of health-related information, research and policy-making to combat the discrepancy in coverage.
"We have the capacity to improve the lives of those in the most vulnerable communities," Saunders said. "It's a matter of will."
Health care providers, including Aetna, a medical insurance company, were in attendance to do their part in helping Latino and other minority communities.
Jason Rottman, CEO of Aetna Better Health — the branch of the company that handles Medicaid, said addressing the issues can be difficult because of limited resources, but the company is throwing all it can at the efforts.

"We need to be local and be in each community trying to understand what the barrier is," Rottman said. "Within the minority community, there are slightly different factors (for lack of access). We have to tailor it a little bit to understand what the driver is."
From there, providers can address barriers including language and transportation, he said. For example, Aetna has translators on staff for their services.
Thursday marked the second and final day of the summit, which again included vendors and continued the theme of access to health services and other problems facing the Latino community.
Keynote events included a public-health impact panel and a session dedicated to HIV prevention services.
Attendees also had the opportunity to learn about a variety of diseases affecting the Latino community, oral health and barriers to health care, such as transportation.

Q: How to Create an Interactive SIde-by-Side Map using JavaFX? I'm trying to create a JavaFx gui that displays 2 maps side by side. One map is of the city while the other is the same city's transportation system. The goal of this application is to do the following:
When the user clicks on a certain location in the the first map (Normal City Map) the second map (Trans Map) should be highlighted in the same exact location or corresponding location.
i have already created the interface where it displays both the same maps and was able to make the mouseEvent in order to extract the coordinates.
The question is, How can i make the 2nd map highlight the same location when clicked?
ِAlso, is it possible to add a Zoom Feature on the interface?

In ways a different world entirely
By Alison Appelbe

Photo by Alison Appelbe
An oasis and town in desert-like eastern Morocco.
Jane flew into Casablanca, via Paris, from her home near San Francisco. Inside her carry-on backpack nestled half a dozen small shampoo-style bottles, each filled with a single martini — presumably the appropriate blend of gin and vermouth.
Their purpose was to provide — at least in the early days of her two-week Morocco tour — a civilized late-afternoon tipple.
Importantly, this trip fell during the lunar month of Ramadan, when alcohol is particularly difficult to get in this Islamic country. So when drink time rolled around, the retired social worker — good spirited, unreserved, and not, it must be noted, a problem drinker — would make her way to the hotel bar or restaurant area and demand a glass filled with ice.
During Ramadan, Muslims fast between dawn and dusk, and when Ramadan falls in mid-summer, as it did this year, that span of abstinence runs from about 5:30 a.m. to 7:45 p.m. It's a long stretch to go without food, water (yes, water), cigarettes and other forbidden easers of human tension.
And Morocco was hot — very. While daily temperatures ranged from the low 30s to mid-40s, it reached 51 during our stay in Marrakech, according to our tour guide.
Throughout the country work slows, incomes suffer, tempers flare. When I tried to get a taxi on a particularly oppressive afternoon in Marrakech, a handful of drivers almost came to blows for the opportunity to earn the meager fare.
Our small tour group — Jane and myself, and four Australians — were following a well-travelled circular route from Casablanca through Rabat to Fes, into the eastern desert, back through the M'Goun Valley to Marrakech, and out to Essaouira on the Atlantic coast.
And the repressive reality of Ramadan affected how I saw things. Casablanca, while filled with too-often neglected art-deco architecture and metal work that appeal to me, appeared tawdry. Fes's celebrated 1,200-year-old medina felt like a crowded slum. And in the medina of equally historic Meknes, north of Fes, we flitted through an open-air market where all I could see was the fact that the the food on display — from fresh meats to honey-soaked pastries — was hovered over by swarms of large black flies.
It was only in out on the desert — where we travelled by camel to overnight in tents (although we slept outside, given the heat) — that Morocco revealed, to me at least, her beauty. I also appreciated the central M'Goun Valley — a mountainous area where abandoned mud-walled fortified houses, and the newer homes to which the locals have relocated (singled out by the satellite dishes on the roofs), emitted a gorgeous earthy, even pinkish, hue.
Jane had come to Morocco on a carpet quest. Her goal was a specific type of Berber carpet that she'd researched back in the States. She knew precisely what she wanted. At shop after shop, she rejected a seemingly endless stream of what looked to me like highly attractive options. At a showroom a the oasis city of Tinghir, I felt so badly for the hapless merchant that I bought a small carpet — neither needed nor really wanted — in a misguided attempt to ease his misery.
During Ramadan, most restaurants open only after a call or signal (like a loud buzzer) from a mosque that reports that the sun has dropped below the horizon. Then it's time for the Muslims to do some serious eating. That means that foreign visitors — and, defying common sense, there were lots of us, including Europeans with small children — must wait an additional hour or so, until the locals have dined.
So we ate around nine, and if we were lucky we could order a beer and maybe a bottle of wine (in most places, a pretty inferior product bottled in Meknes).

St. Thomas Parish Council Proposes Dedicated Emergency Shelter
The St. Thomas Parish Council is proposing the establishment of a central emergency shelter for the parish.
Head of the St. Thomas Parish Council, Mayor Joan Spencer, told JIS News that the Council will be writing to Prime Minister, Portia Simpson-Miller as well asthe relevant agencies, including the Office of Disaster Preparedness and Emergency Management (ODPEM), outlining the proposal.
According to Mayor Spencer, a dedicated parish shelter would reduce the need to use schools as emergency shelters for extended periods. "You have persons, who are going into the schools and they vandalise them but if we have a parish shelter, those persons would go into the shelter. So we will be writing to ODPEM and central government to see how best we can formulate this," she said.
Secretary Manager of the Parish Council, Clinton Gordon, noted that "purpose built" facilities would be beneficial in times of an emergency. "So you can equip them with water, food, blankets and bedding so when persons go to a shelter, there are things there for them already and there would be no need to move (school furniture) around," he said.
He noted further that "each time you go to a shelter you face a repair bill because people do not always take care of the facility and it's a challenge to get the principal to allow use of the school the next time".
According to Mr. Gordon, "once the (parish shelter) is established, people can be moved there. Kingston has people moved from all over by JUTC (Jamaica Urban Transit Company) buses from Portmore to the National Stadium so it shouldn't be hard to move people from Yallahs to Morant Bay."
The Secretary Manager noted that once the centre is established and the basic amenities are in place, then adequate planning and preparation for hurricanes can be done.


Nikki Beach Marbella was the first beach club in Spain to offer Balinese beds on the beach. It was something new and groundbreaking that hadn't been seen here before. They were pioneers in establishing a unique concept of lifestyle on the beach – a place to comfortably spend the day in bed, enjoying high quality cuisine and the best drinks, with staff attending to your needs with a personal touch at all times.
They were serving sushi on the beach at a time when it wasn't that popular and not regarded as a dish to eat overlooking the sea. They made music something that could be enjoyed all day, not just at night, featuring some of the best DJs. This is now part of the beach club philosophy.
As well as its entertainment and animation, they create a unique identity thanks to the live performances, famous deliveries of champagne and aesthetics that thematizes the entire staff of waiters during some of the most unique festivals of the yearly calendar.
Over 15 years, Nikki Beach Marbella has been continuous in their efforts to deliver premium service and top quality care to their customers.
In 2014, they undertook a total renovation of the site which included changing floors, furniture and decoration and adding an octagonal bar to the right of the club and the large central pool. Around this, there are VIP beds arranged on a raised platform facing the sea and in the beach area with beds on the sand. It also has a boutique offering Nikki Beach lifestyle with clothes to wear during the summer, a VIP terrace with spectacular views of the Mediterranean Sea and a large outdoor restaurant.
Nikki Beach Marbella continues to innovate and never disappoints the exclusive national and international clientele that has returned every year since its opening. This year, they have revised the restaurant's menu, providing innovative dishes that combine flavours from around the world and spices representing all of the places where a Nikki Beach is located. Of course, the menu still maintains its popular signature dishes, the most demanded classic dishes which includes Nikki Beach's famous Chicken Satay and their world famous Mojito is still present in their cocktail menu.
Lovers of these values and this philosophy return again and again. This is because of the music, the food, the entertainment, the fashion, film and art. Over 200,000 people visit the Marbella club every year, including celebrities such as Eva Longoria, Michelle Rodriguez and Sergio Ramos.
Nikki Beach Marbella is known locally for its fabulous parties, especially the iconic White Party which has been held every year since 2003. This special ocassion is an ode to the white dress code, with different themes each year, live acts, DJs, stunning performances and a spectacular decoration.
On Thursday July 26, Nikki Beach Marbella will open its doors providing an opportunity for you to don your finery and celebrate their 15 Year Anniversay – Celebration of Life.
You can dance the night away at a party hosted by Martin Solveig. The acclaimed international DJ will be the star providing remixes and rhythms of electronic music that will vibrate to the hundreds of people who will be there to celebrate Nikki Beach's fifteen years of life.
In addition to this stellar performance, the party will have live music, entertainment and the best music from their resident DJ. The new menu will be available from the restaurant for anyone who wishes to enjoy it with wine and champagne menus.

Marriage Equality in Texas?
With the beginning of the new year, comes the potential promise of marriage equality. On January 16, the United States Supreme Court decided it would hear appeals from the Sixth Circuit addressing the issue of marriage equality. Before the Supreme Court will be two issues: (1) whether states must allow same-sex couples to marry; and, if not, (2) whether states must recognize same-sex marriages performed in other states. The Supreme Court's decision, likely at the end of June 2015, may finally resolve this issue for the country.
Thirty-six states now have marriage equality – more than double the number of states recognizing same-sex marriage last year at this time. Unfortunately, Texas is not one of these states. However, it's possible Texas will have an answer before the Supreme Court issues its decision in June. Earlier this month, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals heard arguments from Texas, Louisiana, and Mississippi on the constitutionality of these states' prohibition of marriage equality.
Marrying Out of State
Regardless of the outcome of these cases, the option remains for couples to marry out of state. Following the United States Supreme Court ruling in June of 2013, the federal government began recognizing same sex marriage for the purpose of certain federal benefits. Married same sex couples living in Texas are treated as any other married couple for the purpose of the following federal laws: federal taxes, including income tax, gift tax, and estate tax; immigration; military spousal benefits; and, if you are a federal employee, spousal benefits such as health insurance and FMLA. Whether marrying out of state is beneficial to you depends on your individual circumstances.
Planning Remains Important for LGBT Couples
If marriage equality does come to Texas, married same-sex couples will have many of the rights of opposite-sex couples in this state. These rights include homestead protections, the right to inherit from a spouse, medical decision-making ability for an incapacitated spouse, priority as guardian, and numerous other benefits. However, many legal concerns will still need to be addressed in advance.
For example, unless and until Texas law provides otherwise, married same-sex couples will still need to assure legal recognition for both parents through adoption. In addition, because Texas is a community property state, if the marriage were to end, questions remain regarding the character and division of the property of the marriage. Hence, a cohabitation agreement, which allows you to specify in advance the division of debts, assets, and other responsibilities in a relationship, may be helpful. Moreover, for couples who choose not to marry, advanced planning is still vitally important.
You can find more information on legal planning for same sex couples here. For more about these or other matters, feel free to contact me.

Student Senate decided Wednesday night to incorporate more online exhibits about sexual assault to reach out to regional campuses about sexual and domestic violence.
Geneva Murray, the director of Women's Center, is looking into red zone programming, which is a period of six weeks that is believed to be the most dangerous time for campus sexual assault.
Murray gave an overview of the Women's Center and events that it offers students and faculty at Ohio University. Murray began with discussing sexual and domestic violence prevention, a topic that she said was "hot" on campus last semester but should always be talked about by students. She commended student efforts to address the issue head-on.
Murray also talked about the Women's Center's push to improve the lactation rooms on campus. No one was really keeping a list of where all of the available lactation rooms were on campus, Murray said.
The center is trying to provide more of these rooms. Guidelines are also being established for the rooms in order to ensure that each space is comfortable and suitable for breastfeeding.
"We're trying to make things as consistent as possible," Murray said.
The body also had a presentation from Student Trustees Austin McClain and Faith Voinovich that shared the highlights of last week's Board of Trustees meetings.
McClain discussed the board unanimously passing the Senate's proposed amendment. The amendment allows Student Senate to make constitutional changes without approval from the Board of Trustees.
McClain and Voinovich also presented on new academic programs, approved projects and first generation students. A new department of social work also was approved and will be formed.
"This is breaking off due to large enrollment projections for the department," McClain said.

Bitcoin Traders 'Have a good time the Life and Work of Judas Iscariot'
Charlie Munger, billionaire investor and vice chairman of American holding conglomerate Berkshire Hathaway, again criticized bitcoin (BTC), financial markets-focused news outlet Markets Insider reported on May 4.
Munger — who was invited to an event by an unnamed digital currency investment group, but did not attend it — stated that bitcoin investors "celebrate the life and work of Judas Iscariot."
Munger thus reiterated his negative stance towards cryptocurrencies. Last February, Munger described the leading cryptocurrency as "totally asinine," at the 2018 annual general meeting of the Daily Journal Corporation. He then stated:
"And I think the people who are professional traders that go into trading cryptocurrencies, it is just disgusting. It is like somebody else is trading turds and you decide, 'I can't be left out.'"
As Cointelegraph reported earlier today, Berkshire Hathaway's chief executive officer and chairman Warren Buffett — who is also well-known for his scathing stance toward cryptocurrencies — again derided bitcoin for its purported lack of real use value. Buffet likened the coin to a seashell that "just sits there." "It's like a seashell or something, and that is not an investment to me," Buffett said.
Last year, Chamath Palihapitiya, a self-professed "disciple" of investors Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger, said that the two crypto skeptics are wrong about bitcoin. Regarding Munger, Palihapitiya said, "I think it's really unfair to not understand something, and then to disparage it."
Bitcoin is currently trading at around $5,757, down 0.62% over the past 24 hours, according to CoinMarketCap. As previously reported, on May 3, the price of bitcoin spiked from around $5,300 to over $5,700 in major markets, allowing the crypto market to gain more than $7 billion in a single day.

It's . . . more honest to say we're rock stars, we're havin' it large, we're havin' a great time and don't focus on charity too much, that's private. Justice is public. -- Bono
Wake Up Dead Man - Live From Slane 2001 Lyrics
"'Wake Up Dead Man' was something Edge had from the Zooropa sessions. It was a big Gothic rock song, which didn't seem right for this album. Towards the end of the sessions we dusted it off, stripped it down and did a very sparse, electric version of it. It's a very hard-hitting song." - Bono, U2 By U2 2006
Jesus, Jesus help me
I'm alone in this world
And a fucked up world it is too
Tell me, tell me the story
The one about eternity
And the way it's all gonna be
Wake up, wake up dead man
Jesus, I'm waiting here boss
I know you're looking out for us
But maybe your hands aren't free
Your father, he made the world in seven
He's in charge of Heaven
Will you put a word in for me

A symbol of tropical vacations, honeymoons and good times, palms are one of the most well-known and extensively cultivated plant families. They have been important to humans throughout much of history. Many common products and foods are derived from palms, and palms are also widely used in landscaping for their exotic appearance, making them one of the most economically important plants. In many historical cultures, palms were symbols for such ideas as victory, peace, and fertility. Today, palms remain a popular symbol for the tropics and vacations.
