Changing Things Historically

Last Thursday I flew back the 9,000 miles to New York City, taking a break from the green, windswept city of Wellington, New Zealand. I had completed the first part of the 3 meter-long sculpture maquette. It was a moment for me to reflect back on this pairing of digital technology and traditional drawing and sculpture. And I had that chance this week as I stood in front of an audience in the offices of Changing Our World (the principle fundraisers for the WWI Memorial) in Mid-Town Manhattan.
MID-TOWN NYC
I had been asked to speak to the company about the WWI Memorial Project. And as I stood in front of the audience my thoughts about the alchemy created in this pairing of modern and traditional suddenly started coming out of my mouth in a very heartfelt way. I spoke about my 30 plus years of working in clay to sculpt heroic figures. I spoke of Italy and the 50,000 hours that I had spent in front of life models in my studio to create those sculptures and drawings. Without thinking, my words came out, and they carried a lot of emotion because I understood the finality of what I had just said.
The significance of time in the creation of my art had changed. I would never go back to solely creating sculptures where the element of how long something took to make did not matter. I fully understood with a twinge of sadness, that that era was over. Even a few months ago I saw it as the end of my official sculpture training. That old door had closed. A new door had opened with this epic public project. There was a major deadline to meet. I would be creating Art in the Arena!
When I began work on this Memorial Project back in January of 2016, I was immediately so excited. I wanted to share my passion with this group now. As I began my talk with this audience of 20 and 30 year-olds, I realised that they did not share that same excitement. There was a certain sense of disinterest as they slouched with cell phones in hand, checking their emails and messages. There certainly wasn't a lot of electricity in the room. After all, I was speaking about a war that had happened 100 years ago, and memorials as of late have been underwhelming even on a good day. But as I began to tell them my story of growing up in New York City in the 60s and travelling to Italy, and how at age 19 I could not draw, and how one day I decided to become an artist, ears perked up.
And as I continued explaining what was happening in this project, an excitement started to creep in. Heads began to lift. Cell phones were put down and postures began to change. A charge had hit the room. All of a sudden everyone was sitting on the edge of their chair in rapt attention. They were witnessing, and being let in on, a huge secret that would blow the roof off the art world. They were witness to a historical change. This was the first group of people to see the 3 meter-long maquette outside of Weta Workshop in New Zealand. I was explaining what I had gone through to get here, how I had received a calling. I was letting them in on my journey. I spoke about how sculpture was once the visual medium to bring people together and tell a story, and how film had taken on that job today. And I explained, I was about to change that!
I had travelled to Wellington and discovered the warp speed that digital technology could afford an artist in his creative process. I knew as I stood in front of this group, that this relief wall would bring back the excitement and power that art once had for the general public. I felt like we were in a back room planning a revolution and this group of young 20 and 30-year-olds were privy to the "Visual Explosion" about to be launched. I talked about the correlation between my relief and film. How in film, as we sit there, the scenes change in front of us. I spoke about how in the future people would go visit the Memorial and as they travelled from one end to the other the scenes would change. Memorial visitors would become active observers receiving a spark from the past. They would be sucked into the story and feel emotions about the characters that have travelled to those distant shores, and experienced the carnage. The witnessing of what WWI looks like as told through the relief would create feelings that would be a catharsis of sorts, very similar to what happens in movie theatres at the mall.
And this young generation of listeners understood that a true revolution is about to happen. They understood what is coming and what you will see at Pershing Park will be playing forward the rich and full tradition of figurative art in all its aesthetic power and glory. As Edwin Fountain, the Commissioner of the WWI Centennial Foundation says, "You will see a killer sculpture." All of a sudden, the audience carried that same excitement for the aesthetics of a bygone era. They saw my vision of bringing to life the emotions of film with the intensity of Michelangelo and the beauty of Leonardo. They were inspired by my vision of this aesthetic being reinvented to fit today's world!
There was palpable excitement in the room as I told them this story of A Soldier's Journey.
The visitor will see the husband pulling away from his wife as she grabs his arm in fear of never seeing him again. They will see the soldier launching himself out of the trench with an animal aggression in his eyes. They will see the sadness of war as the nurse holds the gassed soldier in her arms. And out of all this death and destruction they will feel the desperation of the father figure emerging out of the battle scene, staring directly out at you from the relief. For this is a visual narrative told in a three-dimensional material, bronze. It is a story of our humanity. Of how we are born, travel through our life, only to return at the end handing our experiences on to the next generation.
They saw how this art was a return to the visual. I explained how this relief breaks away from the ideology of post-modernism where the importance of the book about the art has superseded the art that it writes about. And they got it.
It was a moment that I will never forget. It was an acceptance from the younger generation. It is a generation that is not literate in the culture and esoteric values that I carry with me. When I began this project, I was determined to bridge the gap between this outdated tradition and imbue it with the excitement of the new. That is why I had flown to Weta Workshop to make use of this cutting-edge technology. And as I stood there, I realised at that very moment that it was not the technology that was the answer. It was the vision that drove the technology, that allowed this aesthetic to be reborn. The technology was just a tool. It was all about the artistic vision.
And it made me happy to know that what I cared about was also something of great value and importance to this younger generation. I left there with tremendous excitement knowing that when this relief wall materialises at Pershing Park, I will be able to change the direction of art history and put figurative art back on the map as the cutting-edge art. I will have given back to others with my life task of creating a contemporary Renaissance Art. And in so doing, I will make art vital again to the general public!
There is no stopping this now, it is coming on like a crashing wave on the beach.
Playing forward the re-humanization of art
Playing forward the rehumanization of art
When I left my studies in Rome Italy in 1987, I really wasn't attuned to what was going on in the current state of the post modern movement.
I wasn't aware that a major coup against the rich tradition of the past was in effect, hell bent on the de-humanization of the figure in the art world. And in a move similar to the rebellious tantrum of a pre-pubescent boy, the energy of contemporary "art " was in a state of complete rebellion. "Art" was proceeding with a grand disillusionment away from what we had held so dear in the past, and proceeding full force towards the leering and sardonic grin of irony.
I came to art late in life at age 19 with the thought that there were three artists to pay attention to and emulate; Michelangelo, Leonardo and Raphael. And in my ignorance, I had no understanding that anything else existed in the art world. So when I answered my call to be an artist on that fall day in October 1982 my sights were on the sacred quality of art that I was all to familiar with from childhood, not on what was going on around me.
From that moment on I worked with life models, drawing and sculpting traditionally 5 to 6 days a week, from 9 to 5 for over 25 years. An obsessive quality drove me forward. I spent years in a boarded up room, blocking out the light of day and regulated my own light and how it fell on those life models. Those life models were my reference for creating a representation of us that spoke of another world. When visitors came into my studio people remarked that you didn't know what time of day it was, nor what the weather was like outside. There were no seasons, nor a sense of time in that room. I wanted to work in an environment where time stood still and there would be no distractions. I just had this driving force to create figures that represented us and spoke of the sacred.
I was after a mythical sublimity with an earth bound reality. I was after emotional depth, outwardly and inwardly alive. I strove for a psychologically and physically real figure full of weight and bound by gravity. My goal was to create a seamless unity between psyche and soma, mind and body. It is what the art critic and art historian, Donald Kuspit says, "It is what makes Old Master portraiture so convincing--what gives their figures presence, suggesting that we are in their presence."
I was after the Re-humanization of Art and I was learning.
I was hellbent on attaining this vision in my sculptures. And in 2011 rising up out of the ashes of irony there is a moment recorded by a cell phone shot that that has tremendous meaning for me. It was taken at a foundry in upstate New York. And it's taken at the end of the day by the foundry workers. It is a picture of the sculpture Apollo cast in bronze. It's unfinished and still in a state of raw metal, the seam lines have just been welded and it's the end of the day when all the body parts had just been assembled. And in this moment of assembling all the cast sections of the figure, I remember we have just nailed the centre of gravity of that figure. It stands in perfect balance. My intention had been to make a figure that soared upwards and moved forward. I had never spent this much time or this much all-consuming energy on one piece. I used life models for 2 1/2 years of work. We had worked five days a week for 3400 hours. It was the end of a long process of studies, 10 years to be exact that culminated in this moment. In my studio it had been Clay, but here it was in bronze. That meant that this piece would outlive me now. I sat looking at that figure that late afternoon in winter and I had a sense of knowing that I had pulled off my dream. But I also carried with me a sense of sadness for I knew I would never do this again. It would be different. I would move on to the next part of my life.
I am glad that moment was caught with the cell phone shot because I will always remember it. It marks the end of a chapter and the beginning of a new one.
I had no idea where life was taking me, and in 2015 I entered into the WW1 National Memorial competition. That summer I paired up with with the architect, Michael Imber and produced my first idea for the competition. I saw a picture of two US soldiers in Iraqi and that initial image was the spark that initiated the idea. With that germ of an idea I created my initial concept drawing for the WW1 Memorial. The drawing and idea was the concept for a sculpture in the round with two soldiers crouched together. The hero soldier holds his less fortunate brother in arms in a moment of compassion. It is a piece about connectedness and compassion that comes out in humans in the horrors of war. It was called the Brotherhood of Arms. Our team did not make the final selection. But in September I received a call from Joe Weishaar and joined his team eventually winning this esteemed competition. I was elated. This would be the next step in my art making journey.
As an artist you never know what's coming even in the next 10 minutes. And now 9000 miles away in New Zealand at Weta Workshop, I stood in front of the test model produced from my concept drawings. I stood there in the imaging room with photo lamps dramatically illuminating the 9 foot long Soldier's Journey. Maddy, the photographer clicked a candid shot from behind me at that moment of introspection. An all too familiar feeling was happening. I knew that this was another moment in my life. It was another chapter. But this time it is the beginning of the chapter not the end. This time it is about creating a sacred art of re-humanization. And this time I am in service of something incredibly large and powerful. Everything that I have learned in the making of Apollo will be played forward in this sculptural relief that shows 38 figures moving forward in a processional composition towards the future. But what is different here is, that this is not an art only for the few. I have left behind that realm of esoteric creation and moved into the realm of artistic creation that is in service of many. I am now "playing in the arena", as Teddy Roosevelt has said.
From my perspective the relief and story that I've created are a visual poetry of WW1 and plays forward history for all to understand what it felt and looked like. And in this moment I am reminded of how some of the great artists of the past dealt with similar epic projects. For me the past is something to learn from and play forward using those brilliant ideas created then and morphing them into the present and the future. I remember as a rebellious 15-year-old visiting Florence and having an epiphany about how powerful Michelangelos Medici Tomb was. It was that day under a hot Tuscan summer's sun that my Dad dragged me into the shade of cuppola of San Lorenzo. We went from the noisey blistering heat of San Marco market plac , to a cool, light filled room with a smell of incense. It was at that moment that a light bulb went off in my head. I had a spark of yearning to create something that carried that superhuman magical power. In the Medici Tomb in Florence, Michelangelo was accused of not making the 2 effigy sculptures of the Medici rulers realistic in likeness. History has changed that. Michelangelo's representation of Guilano and Lorenzo is how we remember them today. Those two sculptures of the medici rulers carry far more power than a figure from this world could ever have attained. His work transcends the real world, and as Picaso would say years later, " To tell the truth you must tell a lie." This is the tradition that affected me that day and inspired me to work the way that I do today.
The mythology that I followed and used in my previous classical work has made its way to into this new work. In the middle of the relief sits the battle scene. It is a giant wave that moves forward and crashes into the ground. And through the iterations led by Edwin Fountain, I developed at least four major versions of this central section. The initial ones were too chaotic, with figures all going in different directions. The final and accepted iteration was the unification of these six men charging. I thought of the concept of a school of fish, or a flock of birds and how they look like one unit all moving in unison with one determined action in mind. A few months ago a university professor came to our house for dinner and looked at the concept drawing. She remarked on how this was a perfect rendition of what the God of War, Mars represented.The Greeks believed, Mars became present on the battlefield where he elevated men to super human strength. It's the transformation that occurs for men in that moment of extreme danger when time stands still and things move in slow motion. In my own life I have done many dangerous sports, such as rockclimbing and motorcycle riding. I am well aware of what the Greeks were talking about with Mars. And in those sports the mind is transformed with a rush of adrenaline and other chemicals that elevate the physical power and drive one forward in a focus and clarity that is unhindered and outside of our everyday vision and experience. As I posed the models I looked for ways to capture that psychology and feeling in each of their gestures. And in my idea of what that battle felt like to those soldiers, I created figures that flow forward in one aggressive adrenaline fuelled charge.
The figure that leads that charge also went through many iterations with Edwin. That pose became the catalyst for me working towards figures with greater drama and movement. For this project I changed my studio practice and art making process. Instead of posing the model on the modelling stand and then observing, I began having the actor act out the call to arms in motion. And in their movements I would find the one pose that explained the whole story. Edwin had also spoken about a Gunnery Sergeant. A very famous marine call Dan Daly. One of the most famous quotations in Marine Corps history came during this initial step off for the battle when Dan Daly yelled to his men,"Come on, you son of a bitches, do you want to live forever!" Edwin asked me to give him a figure that represented this moment at the Battle of Bella Woods when the United States turned the war and achieved victory. Again I began to transfer my previous classical work into this historical humanistic art. I looked back at what I had done with the sculpture of Apollo, a figure that leads with light. And I thought this would be a perfect pairing of Mars and Apollo in the relief. Light leads aggression. It is a fight led by correct principles. The Apollo pose is similar to my original piece with his heart exposed in a vulnerable position leading his charge. His arms spread to their maximum reach in a display of courage. It is a moment of rising to the occasion. The pose speaks of human vulnerability and courage and represents how the United States rose to the occasion in the war that turned the tide.
My reference to art history also became part of my vocabulary in choosing how to present these characters of the relief. In the initial section of the relief on the left, the wife of the principal character is derived from Lady Liberty. She is not only the soldiers wife but is also a representation of America. I was very struck by the painter, Delacroix, and influenced by his painting of Lady Liberty. In his painting, A woman personifying the concept and the Goddess of Liberty leads the people forward over a barricade and the bodies of the fallen, holding the flag of the French Revolution.
The winged victory of Nike at the Louvre Museum in Paris was also influential in the creation of the soldier's wife. I looked towards references that would allow me to create a wall of honour and present the characters in a human and heroic ways. Again these figures represent a rising to the occasion presented in a emotionally dramatic and humanly heroic way.
Following the battle scene to the right is the cost of war scene. This scene begins on the ground as the charging figures are angle steeply down from above on the left. This is a different world as framed by a broken structure in the background. It's representative of the broken world and society that was destroyed by the war. This section has groupings that are strongly influenced by Michelangelo and Renaissance Pietas. I wished to portray death and suffering with the sacredness and a sense of caring from humanity. So I created compositions that intertwined figures into a brotherhood of arms and represented the camaraderie of our troops.
So as the giant wave of the charging battle scene crashes to the ground, this next scene of the cost of war rises up from that point on the ground. From the beginning of the cost of war this strong diagonal rises up towards the only figure coming out directly at the viewer. It is the only figure not moving towards the future. It is a moment of introspection, and acts as a full stop in the visual phrasing of this story. This figure is the principal player of the whole composition. He comes out toward the viewer at the three-quarter mark of the length of the wall. He is the father coming out from the battle scene. The soldier is trying to make sense and process what he has gone through. I was asked by Edwin Fountain to give the composition a figure that shows the thousand yard stare and has a shell shocked look. A vacant stare into nothingness. He is the hero of our story. The father figure represents America. And this moment represents the transformation that this country went through from an Agrarian nation to an industrial superpower. A sword is forged by intense heat. My analogy is that the father is forged and transformed by what he has seen in the war. He is a man, and the representation of a country forever changed. He is seeing once again in the very last scene of the relief. In this scene he hands his daughter his helmet. And she holds his helmet. She holds the doughboy helmet a representation of the history of WW1 in her hands gazing into it and divining the future. She is the next generation.
There is also a powerful nurse to the right of this soldier and she is inspired by the WW1 nurse Julia Stimpson. Stimpson served on the front line eventually changing the profession of nurses forever. She was seen as charismatic, courageous and determined. She made a huge difference during the Great War for many men whose lives she saved. My intention was to create a female figure that would be seen as a heroine, full of power and charisma as she stands directly to the side of the Hero in the next grouping of three soldiers moving towards the end of the war.
She is also part of the diagonal which rises up from the cost of war and continues up to the highest point in the relief which is the flag.
As we come towards the end of the relief there is a grouping of three men that carry this flag. This grouping represents the Johnny Comes Marching Home parade scene. And is influenced by the three figures often seen in the American revolutionary war that carry a fife and drum, and flag.
In four days I board a plane for New Zealand and return to Weta Workshop. Our next step is creating the clay version of this 9 foot long model of the relief wall. I look forward to being able to share my process and show that the art world has other options. It's an amazing moment in my life to be able to share my passion with so many. And be able to create something that speaks of the sacred and us in an uplifting way.
For me this is a catalyst and a spark in the art world. And we can only wait and see what other fires this creative spark will light.
Sabin Howard sculptures are classical figures that feel thoroughly modern while recalling the mastery of the Renaissance and ancient Greece.

The Louvre – the most visited art museum in the world | France
testdata	September 16, 2011	0 Comments
As far as tourist attractions in Paris go, the Louvre is right up there with the Eiffel Tower. The most visited art museum in the whole world, it is found on the Right Bank of the Seine in the 1st arrondissement.
The Louvre began its life as a fortress built in the late 12th century, making it in itself just as interesting as the art it holds — you can still see the remains of the fortress in the basement. From the outside it is a magnificent building, as opulent and grand as you could wish for, marked by an enormous glass pyramid that you enter to descend into the museum.

The Louvre Framed [Paris, France]
Inside the museum is split into eight departments: Egyptian Antiquities; Near Eastern Antiquities; Greek, Etruscan, and Roman Antiquities; Islamic Art; Sculpture; Decorative Arts; Paintings; Prints and Drawings. It houses some of the most famous works of art in the world, including the Mona Lisa and the Venus de Milo. However there is much to delight in the Louvre and you could spend hours in there.

Leaving the art gallery, there is in the same building a small shopping centre. Going back above ground you can cross the road to the Jardin des Tuileries, a beautiful garden in the French formal style where you can sit and watch the world passing you by for free, enjoying the fountains and sculptures there. Cross the river to find a stretch of some of the most expensive and beautiful shops in all of Paris.

Q: WDK (Windows Driver Kit) and VC++ headers problem I'm trying to read from an USB HID device, I know how to do it in C# using DLLImport hid.dll, but I want to do it from C++, this way I don't have to declare all the structures, etc, and just include the headers files.
So I downloaded the WDK and then when including the headers files and linking the libraries I'm getting a lot of errors:
#include <windows.h>

extern "C" {
    #include <hidsdi.h>
}

int main(){

}

Errors (6 out of 163):
Error   1   error C2065: 'PASSIVE_LEVEL' : undeclared identifier    c:\winddk\7600.16385.1\inc\api\hidpi.h  302 driver

OK so I read somewhere that I have to upgrade the Windows SDK too, I had the Microsoft Windows SDK v6.0A, I downloaded and installed the windows SDK v7.0. But then looks like I have two SDK now? How I properly do the SDK upgrade in visual studio?
I very much appreciate your help,
Thanks,
Carlos

A: I found a solution, don't know why this is working, but it is!:
In Visual Studio go to:
Tools->Options->Projects->VC++ Directories and then Show directories for: include files.
Add this folders:
C:\WinDDK\7600.16385.1\inc\ddk and C:\WinDDK\7600.16385.1\inc\api
Now here is the trick that solved the problem for me and I don't know why, because seems odd but here it is:
C:\WinDDK\7600.16385.1\inc\ddk -> This directory have to be the first directory in the list!
C:\WinDDK\7600.16385.1\inc\api -> This directory have to be ABOVE "$(WindowsSdkDir)\include" BUT BELOW "$(VCInstallDir)include"
Example:
C:\WinDDK\7600.16385.1\inc\ddk
$(VCInstallDir)include
$(VCInstallDir)atlmfc\include
C:\WinDDK\7600.16385.1\inc\api
$(WindowsSdkDir)\include
$(FrameworkSDKDir)include

és una sèrie anime, adaptada d'un joc hentai, de gènere ecchi que consta de 12 episodis i 2 Ovas que van ser realitzats per lEstudi Matrix, creat per Groover i estrenada en el 2003.

Història
Hi hagué dos "amants a qui se'ls va prohibir estar junts en el passat i van prometre tornar a renàixer per a així casar-se i ser feliços per a sempre"

Aquest és el pròleg de la sèrie, explicant així que Midori i Yuusuke són aquests amants.

La història es desenvolupa en l'escola "Kanenone Gakuen", que és una escola per a xics, que acull a un grup de xiques provinents d'altre institut durant l'estiu per un temps, a manera de prova per a veure si "Kanenone" pogués tornar-se més endavant una escola mixta. No obstant això, els xics de la mateixa ho veuen únicament com una oportunitat per a tenir relacions sexuals.

Quan arriben les xiques a l'escola i s'obrin les portes de l'autobús en el qual venien, apareix del no-res una xica dita Midori, qui en veure a Yuusuke es llança sobre ell.

Així és com la vida del pobre Yuusuke canvia de cop i volta, sense tenir la més remota idea de qui és Midori ni de la llegenda, però els amics d'aquest (Bacchi-Gu, Tenjin i Ichiban-boshi) aprofitaran totes les oportunitats possibles per a fer els seus somnis realitat.

També es veuran involucrades altres xiques en la història com Futaba, Wakaba i Sanae.

Personatges

Ordinari, agradable, i potser un poc paranoic, Yuusuke és el protagonista masculí típic que un trobaria en la majoria de sèries anime. És amic del trio d'idiotes, amb qui comparteix tot menys amb els seus interessos "pervertits". No obstant això, ell generalment es troba en situacions així per culpa el trio, que acaben sovint en malentesos respecte a les seues intencions. Per alguna raó, Midori sembla conèixer a Yuusuke. Yuusuke no té cap idea de qui és ella i al principi la manté lluny, sense fer-li cas i tractant-la malament. Ell se torna enamorar d'ella després que Midori li besara, la qual cosa li fa recuperar la memòria. Açò, juntament amb els sentiments que sentia cap a Futaba, forma un triangle amorós.

La protagonista principal, Midori, és una noia que destaca sobre la resta i és alegre. Sembla conèixer a Yuusuke i està enamorada d'ell, tant que està disposada a fer qualsevol cosa per ell. Midori narra una història de fa temps sobre dues persones que estaven enamorades, però l'amor de les quals fou prohibit en eixe llavors i no van poder romandre juntes. Així que prometeren ajuntar-se en altra vida futura, fent al·lusió que Midori és la noia de la història i d'alguna manera conservava els seus records, mentre que Yuusuke és el noi, però ell no recorda res d'aquesta història.

Futaba ocupa el paper de la "xica seriosa". El trio d'idiotes la disgusta (especialment Ichiban-Boshi que està boig per ella però aquesta l'hi correspon a colps) i considera a la majoria dels xics de Kanenone uns pervertits. Futaba quasi sempre acaba colpejant al trio (fins i tot de vegades Yuusuke), però després canvia el seu parer cap a Yuusuke en ser rescatada per ell quan tractava de fugir de l'Acadèmia. Aquest fet, juntament amb quan li dona una tovallola quan la seua samarreta era mullada, fa que augmenten els seus sentiments cap a Yuusuke, i prompte Yuusuke es troba també atret cap a Futaba. Futaba és la protagonista principal en el segon OVA on finalment declara els seus sentiments a Yuusuke (i de passada té sexe amb el). Té una germana menor, Wakaba.

Germana menor de Futaba. Ella accepta i respecta a la seua germana. El tret característic de Wakaba és el seu cactus, que ho diu Togemura (que significa literalment Senyor Espines). Wakaba duu a Togemura a totes parts amb ella i sembla poder parlar-li i sentir l'estat d'ànim de Togemura. Fins i tot utilitza a Togemura com arma para defensar-se dels pervertits, és bastant còmica i sempre tendeix a parlar de vegades de mes, s'ha guanyat més d'una vegada una renyada de la seua germana per això, Ichiban pareix tenir sentiments cap a ella especialment en l'OVA.

Feble i tímida, Sanae sembla molt més jove que la resta dels personatges femenins principals i està bastant feble de salut. Açò crida l'atenció de Tenjin, a qui li atrauen les xiques tipus "germana petita", a las que pot protegir. De fet, Tenjin vol que Sanae ho anomene "Onii-chama", la traducció aproximada del qual seria "germà major", combinant els honorífics "chan" i "sama". Sanae, no obstant això, s'espanta a mort amb Tenjin pensant que és un pervertit i desitja estar el més lluny d'ell com siga possible. Sanae anà al viatge a Kanenone perquè els seus metges creuen que l'aire fresc de la zona seria beneficiós per la seua salut, també se li pot veure que té sentiments cap a Yuusuke (provocant forta gelosia en Tenjin).

Reika és la "millor amiga" de Midori i sembla saber una mica sobre la connexió entre ella i Yuusuke. Ella sembla estar atenta per a mantenir als dos separats, i intenta ajuntar a Yuusuke i Futaba. Els motius de Reika s'expliquen prop del final de la sèrie (resulta ser una missatgera de la destí). Igual que altres personatges, no està present en el joc hentai que es basà la sèrie. La van crear com personatge nou per a la sèrie de televisió.

Chigusa és la infermera del col·legi de les noies. Vingué en el viatge com la supervisora de les noies. El trio d'idiotes, especialment Bacchi-Gu, està enamorat de la bellesa de Chigusa i especialment dels seus darreres i dels seus pits E-Cup (copa E). Encara que ha de mantenir a les xiques vigilades, Chigusa és molt tolerant i les anima realment que coquetegen amb els nois, detall que denota en episodis avançats quan veu el que sent Futaba per Yuusuke.

El trio d'Idiotes

 Aquests tres personatges destaquen com la part còmica de la sèrie, són uns pervertits de manera exageradament extrema a tal punt de fer qualsevol cosa per flirtejar amb una xica, a més a més de ser uns malalts mentals cadascun a la seua pròpia manera, el trio el conformen:

El líder evident del trio d'idiotes Bacchi-Gu, té excés de pes i és un pervertit que no té cap vergonya. L'arribada de noies belles a Kanenone sembla portar-lo a embogir. Fa coses tals com beure l'aigua de bany on les xiques es banyaren fa pocs minuts, se sent atret per la infermera Chigusa Iino i per Reika Morimura. Bacchi-Gu és considerat la revelació còmica de la sèrie (encara que la sèrie és sobretot comèdia) i és la mascota masculina de Green Green.

Traduït literalment com "Estrella brillant número un," Ichiban-Boshi és qui té una mala sort terrible en el grup d'idiotes. Ell és potser el menys pervertit dels tres, però no obstant això segueix sent pervertit. Tracta de flirtejar amb les dones per mitjà del que aprèn dels llibres del Dr. Tanaka (sense cap èxit clar), i la xica que li atrau és Futaba Kutsuki (que sempre l'hi arremet a colps) i en l'OVA la seua germana Wakaba.

Somia amb tenir una noia jove que ho considere un germà major, i llavors que ella dorma al seu costat... mentre que ell l'olora i menja arròs al mateix temps (una broma que es refereix a la paraula "okazu", que significa "menjar" i "porno"). L'aspecte jove i feble de Sanae l'ha atret immediatament cap a ella, però Sanae no vol res amb Tenjin (de fet li té molta por).

Episodis

OVAs
En el 2003 eixí un OVA de Green Green. No té relació amb la sèrie de televisió. És una història alternativa on són els estudiants de Kanenone, els quals visiten l'escola de les xiques. Aquesta OVA va ser criticada per la seua animació que era un poc antiquada, igual que la majoria dels personatges perdien el seu carisma que tenien en la sèrie.

Altra OVA titulada  va ser realitzada en el 2004 com el decimotercer episodi i que concloïa la història de la sèrie. Aquest OVA ha estat considerat com un hentai, ja que es pot veure a Yuusuke tenint relacions sexuals amb Midori i després amb Futaba.

També van eixir Tres OVAS especials en DVD que es publicaren al Japó sota el títol de Green Grenn Characters; sent el primer...

... La història de "Sanae i Wakaba" que fou posat a la venda el 19 de novembre del 2003.

 Després eixiria la història de "Futaba i Chigusa" que fou posat a la venda el 17 de desembre del 2003

 Per últim eixí la història de "Midori i Reika" que fou llançat el 21 de gener del 2004

Cada DVD de Green Green Characters inclou una breu història de 8-10 minuts en les quals inclouen una escena de sexe o nus dels dos personatges femenins esmentats, un vídeo musical per al títol de cadascun dels personatges, i altres extres, amb un total de temps d'execució de 33 -38 minuts cadascun. En Amèrica del Nord Media Blaster feu el lliurament de la major part del contingut dels DVDs de personatges es poden trobar en els extres de cada DVD  .

Tom Brady Super Bowl XLIX Prop Betting
Mike Pickett | Tue, Jan 27 2015, 5:59am
Updated: Thu, Jan 29 2015, 1:24pm
Tom Brady may not be very popular outside of Massachusetts right now due to the whole Deflategate scandal. But the New England Patriots quarterback could help bettors make a profit on the 2015 Super Bowl due to a number of props featuring him at online sportsbook Bovada.
Brady is already a two-time Super Bowl MVP and the 7/4 favorite at the sportsbook to tie former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Joe Montana for the most in NFL history with three.
In addition, there are 20 individual player props that focus on Brady's performance in Super Bowl XLIX, ranging from total passing yards (OVER/UNDER 260.5) to total rushing yards (O/U 3.5).
You can even get 7/1 odds on Brady rushing for a touchdown, something he did not do once during the regular season but was able to do in New England's 35-31 victory against the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC Divisional Playoffs. If you do not think Brady will hit paydirt on a run, you will need to pay a hefty price of -1400, meaning you would wager $1,400 to win $100.
Will Brady throw at least one interception against the Seahawks? Then you can lay -160 (bet $160 to win $100) on the OVER. What about two or more picks? Get +190 (bet $100 to win $190) on that scenario. Don't think he will be picked off at all? Then you can get +130.
These numbers are subject to change at Bovada, so bet as soon as you can, or wait and hope for better odds closer to kickoff.

Q: Choosing options in "The company is not doing well-isn't it time you sell/sold/selling off your shares in it?"
Choose the option which expresses the sentence in the best manner:
The company is not doing well-isn't it time you sell/sold/selling off your shares in it?

From my point of view, sell is the best option as the sentence is of simple present tense. Using the option sold will make it in past tense. Please suggest your answers.

A: Sold is absolutely right in place of sell.

Electrotherm India
Electrotherm (I) used to receive hundreds of 'bills payable' documents on a daily basis. Since these documents were in a physical form, several challenges used to arise while handling these documents. These challenges could be classified as:
Tracking – Tracking of physical documents was a huge challenge because of the sheer amount of human effort it required and the physical space needed to store these documents. Also, whenever a document was required for reference, there was difficulty in tracking it because of the lack of accessibility.
Real Time Status – It was difficult to get a real-time status of bills, both approved and 'in-process', at any given time or if the management demanded the same. During such an event, manual reports had to be generated, which came with the possibility of human error. As a result, 100% accuracy in such reports was a remote possibility.
Vendor Relations – Vendor relations were at stake because of delays, difficulty in managing bills processing, and inaccurate reports.
Crown Records Management helped Electrotherm (I) Ltd. to make their entire paper process, digital. Our Electronic Document Management System (EDMS) allowed Electrotherm (I) Ltd. to efficiently capture data, attach documents/bills and get all the approvals from a single application. EDMS helped Electrotherm (I) Ltd. to manage thousands of bills received each month effectively and securely.
The outcome:
Electrotherm (I) Ltd. can now easily retrieve details of all the claims in just one click. All the documents/bills received are automatically uploaded to the system, minimizing the process of manual upload of documents. The documents are then digitally passed through series of approvals, eliminating the chance of losing the documents in transit.
All the reports required for internal or external audit purpose can now be generated with a simple click.
Auto-emails are generated for the stakeholders, informing the case status at each and every stage of the workflow.
Electrotherm (I) Ltd. can also comply with changes in the e-Forms/workflows as per their requirement, through the front end.
The EDMS solution is built on open source technologies, which makes it cost effective. The application is currently accessed by 50 users, and through its successful implementation has now a scope to add another 50 users in a separate unit of the company. The entire solution is totally flexible and scalable making it a solution cut out for Electrotherm (I) Ltd.

If you're coming down to South Devon this summer and are in the mood to hear beautiful music in a gorgeous setting, head to Dartington Estate to take part in our annual International Festival.
Every year, our festival brings together celebrated international performers and enthusiastic amateurs for a month of music-making. Concerts are open to the public and there are up to three every evening, with something for everybody.
What makes Dartington unique is the eclectic mixture of music we programme every week. Ancient and modern blend together in the spectacular concert space of the medieval great hall.
In week 1 (July 29th-August 4th) we've got stunning early music performances from huge names in the industry such as The City Musick, Stile Antico and Emma Kirkby, and are also featuring late night jazz and spoken word.
Baroque and Folk music are the theme of week 2 (August 5th-11th), with folk royalty Martin Carthy coming to perform. We'll also be hearing the fabulous soprano Carolyn Sampson exploring "Schubert's Women" in song.
Week 3 (August 12th-18th) presents a varied programme of French romantic piano music, symphonic classics, and musical theatre. Plus we're thrilled to welcome back the incredible Brazilian percussionist Adriano Adewale who sizzles with salsa and tango.
In week 4 (August 19th-26th) join us for some opera, film music, gospel, jazz and lots more exciting contemporary music.
In short, you can't fail to find something you'll love at this year's festival. When you come, why not make a day of it by exploring (for free!) the spectacular medieval buildings and gardens of the Dartington estate before the concert starts. The entire grounds will be abuzz with music and excitement in preparation for that night's performances.
There are three eateries on site where you can pick up a delicious dinner, and the surrounding countryside and picturesque towns of Totnes and Dartington village provide a perfect base for the day.
We pride ourselves on the community created through music every year at Dartington, so why not come and be part of the fun.

The aircraft, operating on a flight for the Sri Lankan Air Force to Colombo, took off from Palaly AFB in heavy rain. On climbout the no. 2 engine caught fire and the crew had to return. On final approach (200 m short of the runway) the right wing failed and the aircraft crashed. Reports say the engine caught fire after being hit by a SAM missile fired by Tamil separatists.

Snapchat responds to the Change.org petition complaining about the app's redesign
Snapchat has posted an official response to users who signed a petition on Change.org asking the company to reverse its controversial update, which people say makes the app more difficult to use. In the response, Snapchat promises to make a few more changes to the Friends and Discover section in order to address user complaints.
These changes were announced yesterday, along with GIF stickers from Giphy.
The backlash against Snapchat has been growing in the months since the company rolled out a major revamp, which aimed to make the social app more accessible to a mainstream audience. Snapchat users have left the app bad reviews, complained on social media, turned to rival Instagram, and they signed a Change.org petition entitled, "Remove the new Snapchat update."
Users are upset over a number of things in the new design, including the mixing of Stories in a single "Friends" page, increased difficulties with finding friends and rewatching Stories, and a revamped Discover section which combines content from professional creators, big news outlets, video makers, and social media stars.
Tweets complaining about the update have gone viral.
Celebrities, like Chrissy Teigen, and YouTuber Marques Brownlee (MKBHD), have also weighed in.
I'm seeing this same comment so often. I liked that you guys felt like we were friends. I'm sad it doesn't feel like that anymore. How many people have to hate an update for it to be reconsidered? https://t.co/PI7OAf9Qlg
— christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) February 9, 2018
The Change.org petition didn't delve into the specifics regarding the changes Snapchat users hate, but says the update is "annoying," and has made "many features more difficult." It asks Snap, Inc. to "change the app back to the basics."
To date, Snapchat has been vigorously standing behind the update, with Snap CEO Evan Spiegel saying earlier this month that, basically, people just need time to get used to it.
"It'll take time for people to adjust, but for me using it for a couple months I feel way more attached to the service," said Spiegel.
The user backlash is reminiscent of the one Facebook had faced years ago, when users rebelled over the addition of News Feed which radically changed the Facebook experience. News Feed was ultimately a success; whether Snapchat can pull through is still unknown.
Snap's earnings, however, pointed to the redesign's potential to positively impact the company's numbers. Publisher Stories on Discover grew 40 percent compared to the old design, and users older than 35 were engaging with the app more, the company said, when posting its first earnings beat.
But many users, right now, are not happy. As of February 13, 2018, the Change.org petition had grown to over 800,000 signatures. Today, it stands at 1,223,722, as of the time of writing.
Last night, Snapchat posted an official response to the petition, reiterating its stance but also promising a few tweaks that may help to address users' concerns.
Specifically, the company said that "beginning soon on iOS and with Android in the coming weeks" it will introduce tabs in the Friends section and in Discover, which it says will make it easier for users to find the Stories they want. This update will let users sort things like Stories, Group Chats, and Subscriptions. (You can read more about this here.)
Whether these tabs will placate users who just want the old Snapchat back remains to be seen.
Snapchat's full response is below:
FEB 20, 2018 — To Nic and all of the Snapchatters who signed this petition,
We hear you, and appreciate that you took the time to let us know how you feel. We completely understand the new Snapchat has felt uncomfortable for many.
By putting everything from your friends in one place, our goal was to make it easier to connect with the people you care about most. The new Friends page will adapt to you and get smarter over time, reflecting who you're most likely to be Snapping with at that moment. This same personalization is also true of the new Discover, which will adapt to you the more that you use it.
Beginning soon on iOS, and with Android in the coming weeks, we are introducing tabs in Friends and Discover, which will make it easier to find the Stories that you want, when you want them. Once you receive the update, you'll be able to sort things like Stories, Group Chats, and Subscriptions, allowing you to further customize your own experience on the app.
This new foundation is just the beginning, and we will always listen closely to find new ways to make the service better for everyone. We are grateful for your enthusiasm and creativity. We are very excited for what's ahead.
Team Snapchat

Displaced Mission Trails Mobile Home Residents File Suit Against City, Property Owners
By Mary Tuma
South Side mobile home residents recently forced to vacate and make way for a luxury apartment complex aren't giving up the fight to save their community. Represented by a local civil litigation attorney, the residents have filed two lawsuits—one against the City and the other against the property owners—with the hope of bringing justice to their situation.
Residents of Mission Trails Mobile Home Park gathered outside council chambers last month after a rezoning vote displaced them from their communities. Now, they're filing suit agains the City and property owners. Photo by Mary Tuma. Last month, City council approved rezoning the 21-acre tract of land from "manufactured housing" to commercial and multi-family, allowing local developers White-Conlee to build a $75 million high-end riverfront apartment development in its place, as the Current previously reported. While more than 60 residents (including young children and Latino immigrants) testified, oftentimes pleading with tears, it eventually passed in a 6-4 vote, with Mayor Julián Castro and council members Diego Bernal (District 1), Rey Saldaña (District 4) and Shirley Gonzales (District 5) casting a vote against the zoning item. District 3 councilwoman Rebecca Viagran, whose district encompasses the park, voted for the rezoning and vowed to make sure the residents secured new housing. Developers promised to subsidize moving expenses and hookup fees when transitioning residents to other trailer parks and will provide a $2,500 rent discount to residents and an additional $2,500 from the property buyer if the move occurs before Aug. 15. However, many residents, especially the disabled and elderly, voiced deep concern over their ability to relocate and worry over loss of proximity to doctor's offices and accessible medical care. This week, attorney Nicole Elizalde Henning, on behalf of the roughly 300 low-income mobile home dwellers uprooted from their community, filed two separate suits in response to the displacement. (View copies of the suit below.) The first suit alleges the city violated the Texas Open Meetings Act (specifically, when council met in executive session to discuss contractual issues during the May session) and failed to provide notice of rezoning to residents that own their homes in the park. (While notification isn't required for home renters, City code does mandate home owners must be notified of any changes in rezoning.) Residents felt the property owner or the city should have alerted them to the rezoning, at the least, out of respect. Instead they discovered the change as a result of their own efforts. "They weren't required to notify everyone," Elizalde Henning tells the Current. "But unfortunately, they notified no one." The second suit, expected to be drawn out much longer than the first, was filed against property owners, Colorado-based American Family Communities and the Mission Trails company. That suit charges the owners with, essentially, being slumlords. The lawsuit alleges more than 20 grievances, such as poor and unsanitary upkeep of the property, including raw sewage, exposing residents to bacterial, fungal and other toxins and an overall refusal to make necessary repairs to homes. It also claims "deceptive" water utility billing methods in violation of Texas Commission on Environmental Quality standards. "Under Mission Trails MHC, LLC's ownership, the park has committed numerous reprehensible and serious violations against its residents," the suit reads. "[ ] Defendants' actions are so egregious, it is impossible to list the multitude of violations committed." Elizalde Henning says she contacted both the city and property owners prior to filing suit to settle the issues— offering a proposal to move residents to multi-tenant housing repossessed by the city—but was met with silence. She says no resident has secured alternate housing so far. In fact, she alleges they are on the other end of intimidation tactics from property owners. Viagran refused to comment on the two suits and says she does not recall correspondence sent by Elizalde Henning regarding sub-standard housing conditions. However, she did stress incoming property managers and members of the City's Department of Human Services have made themselves available to answer questions and "settle misinformation" during meetings held at the Mission Library (from 10:30 a.m.- 6:00 p.m. and daily presentations held from 4:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday, Wednesday, and Friday or 5:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. Tuesday and Thursday.) Viagran's office says an open house will be held Thursday June 12 from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. for all residents who would like to speak to representatives of Implicity Management Group, area mobile home parks, the San Antonio Independent School District (SAISD), Catholic Charities of San Antonio, and the Department of Human Services. She hopes residents take advantage of the opportunity for dialogue. "We are working diligently and will continue to work diligently to make sure that everyone has their place secured and everything is followed through," Viagran tells the Current. "Our priority has been to make sure residents get the assistance they need. I just hope this lawsuit does not hinder that." View both suits here via Scribd:

The only real competition comes from its sister food, Orijen, and you can't go wrong with either one.
Orijen has higher meat protein content than Acana. Orijen dog food is made with 75 to 80 percent meat, while Acana dog food is made with 40 to 65 percent meat, depending on the specific formula. Orijen dog food formulas have between 38 and 42 percent protein, while Acana dog food formulas contain protein levels in the 27 to 34 percent range. There is also a difference between Orijen dog food and Acana dog food with regard to carbohydrate levels. Orijen dog food formulas range from 18 to 22 percent carbohydrate while, Acana dog food formulas are generally in the 28 to 30 percent carbohydrate range.
With regard to the amount of fresh meat, Orijen dog food is made with up to 40 percent fresh meats, compared to Acana dog food, which generally has from 9 to 15 percent fresh meats. There is also a difference in fresh meat variety. Orijen dog food contains at least five fresh meats, whereas Acana dog food contains three fresh meat ingredients. Because of these small differences, Acana is priced slightly lower and is more affordable for some pet owners. But the quality of the ingredients is the same.

I find few disagreements with President Duterte's words and deeds, but next to his supercilious designation of the late dictator Marcos as a hero who deserves to be buried at the Libingan ng mga Bayani (Heroes Cemetery), I find his latest caper of floating and signifying his interest in changing the name Philippines to Maharlika the highest of absurdities, if I may call it that way.
It is one thing to put on the highest pedestal one's idol and hero, like Duterte has done about Marcos, but it is another thing to ram it down the throat of the Filipino people because it was once the dream and aspiration of the person you greatly admired.
I do not know if changing the country's name to Maharlika matters really because if Wikipedia has the comprehensive answer for everything then its connotation is not what we want it to be or what we perceived it to be because it says that the origin of the word is Indian-inspired that influenced our culture as members of the Malay race.
When put in the proper context, historians and scholars agree on one thing and it is that Maharlika means anything but "a concept of serenity and peace," as Duterte imputed it to be, or "a royalty" as presidential spokesperson Salvador Panelo wants us to believe it is.
The reason why I am expounding on this alternative name is because it puzzles me why Duterte is picking up where Marcos has left off when what the latter was mainly interested in was having his ego inflated by fantasizing and falsely reviving that the name Maharlika was ancient Filipino nobility.
It is even discombobulating that heroes like Mabini, Luna, del Pilar, Aguinaldo, Bonifacio and notably Rizal did not belittle the name Philippines and in fact were proud being called Filipinos who wrote, condemned, fought and died valiantly for the country against the abuses and atrocities of both the Spanish colonial rulers and the Spanish friars.
It is perhaps prudent for our leaders to be reminded that the name Philippines is not what made us who we are today but, rather, it is us, the people who have given the country the ambiguities perceived today by the people in the world community.

Q: Trying to attach to a screen kills the terminal I was trying to attach to a screen session on a remote computer, with screen -r, but my terminal got killed (I was trying to attach and see what it is, because I did not remember creating it). Now attaching to any kind of screen on the remote computer or on my local computer results in the same thing.
I have the following symptoms in detail. On the remote computer:
fbence@atlasz:~
$ screen --version
Screen version 4.01.00devel (GNU) 2-May-06

Executing an empty screen command results in the terminal closing. Executing a screen -ls command sometimes results in the closing of the terminal, sometimes I get a meaningful output:
fbence@atlasz:~
$ screen -ls
There are screens on:
    26539.pts-8.atlasz  (03/31/2015 02:08:46 PM)    (Detached)
    26410.pts-8.atlasz  (03/31/2015 02:07:40 PM)    (Detached)

    23448.munka (02/17/2015 12:44:03 PM)    (Detached)
5 Sockets in /var/run/screen/S-fbence.

The three newest are very likely the ones that the empty screen command created before the terminal got killed.
On my local machine:
fbence@medusa:~
$ screen -version
Screen version 4.02.01 (GNUbb1ef15) 28-Apr-14
fbence@medusa:~
$ screen
bind (/tmp/screens/S-fbence/17815.pts-1.medusa): Írásvédett fájlrendszer

"Írásvédett fájlrendszer" would be something like write-protected filesystem (sidepoint: I really like that I can use Linux in my language, but translating errors certainly doesn't help googling for help!).
Now, it might be totally unrelated, but my work computer doesn't have much memory in it, but I like to listen to Youtube on chrome, so I sometimes have to clear swap. Which I did, but I did it again in a few minutes (don't know why really), and ended up with this:
fbence@medusa:~
$ sudo swapoff -a && sudo swapon -a
[sudo] password for fbence:
sudo: unable to open /var/lib/sudo/fbence/1: Írásvédett fájlrendszer
[sudo] password for fbence:
sudo: unable to open /var/lib/sudo/fbence/1: Írásvédett fájlrendszer

Again, "write-protected filesystem". And again, trying to attach to a screen ends up in the terminal being killed.
I think (probably) rebooting would solve the issue, but I'm actually intrigued about what happened here.
I use the gnome terminal 3.6.2 on an ubuntu 14.04.02 LTS, my .screenrc is this:
hardstatus alwayslastline "%{= G}%{g}[ %{G}%H %{g}][ %?%-Lw%?%{R} %n*%f %t %{g}%?%+Lw%? %{g}]%=%{g}[ %{W}%c:%s %{g}]"
caption splitonly "%{= g}[%n %t]"
startup_message off
autodetach on
defscrollback 10000
termcapinfo xterm ti@:te@

Any idea on what I messed up and how and how to fix it?

L.A. settles homeless rights case, likely limiting ability to clear skid row streets
In the middle of skid row, tents are lined up on the sidewalks. Homelessness in Los Angeles has increased significantly over the last several years.
(Luis Sinco / Los Angeles Times)
By Gale HollandStaff Writer
The Los Angeles City Council on Wednesday agreed to settle a pivotal and contentious case on the property rights of homeless people — a decision that is likely to limit the seizure and destruction of encampments on skid row.
The 10-2 vote authorizes City Attorney Mike Feuer to settle a 2016 lawsuit, Carl Mitchell v. Los Angeles, brought by civil rights lawyers on behalf of homeless people and two skid row anti-poverty groups. Downtown business groups had opposed such a deal, arguing that settling the case would deter redevelopment, and leave skid row and the people who live on its sidewalks mired in squalor.
The city has wrestled with the property rights issue for years, losing or settling a string of civil rights lawsuits related to cleaning up tent encampments downtown
In 2016, L.A. adopted an ordinance limiting homeless people's belongings to what would fit in a 60-gallon bag, and requiring the city to give 24-hour notice of cleanups and store confiscated items where they can be readily reclaimed.
But after civil rights lawyers filed the lawsuit that same year, alleging that the city used street cleanups and arrests for minor "quality of life" offenses as pretexts to dismantle their camps and destroy their property, U.S. District Judge S. James Otero in Los Angeles issued an injunction. It barred the city from seizing and destroying homeless people's property on skid row unless officials could show it had been abandoned, threatened public health or safety, or consisted of contraband or evidence of a crime.
Developers and business representatives had lobbied the City Council to take the judge's injunction to trial instead of preserving many of its requirements in a settlement. They argue the injunction has hampered police enforcement on skid row and fostered disorder and disease, including a typhus outbreak.
A homeless man pushes a shopping cart filled with his belongings down Seventh Street in downtown Los Angeles on Wednesday.
The council left the details of the settlement, including exactly what streets would be covered, to City Attorney Feuer. At least one downtown business group assailed council members for agreeing to terms without making them public.
But Councilman Jose Huizar, who voted against the deal on Wednesday, said the settlement would only cover skid row, home to more than 2,000 people who live outdoors, and adjoining streets, including part of Little Tokyo and Main Street. Other parts of Los Angeles would not be affected.
The city, Huizar said, was continuing "to treat skid row as a dumping ground for homeless people."
Councilman Joe Buscaino, who also opposed the settlement, predicted conditions on skid row would deteriorate even further because of the settlement.
"We deserve a city safe and free of public health hazards," Buscaino said after the vote. "Every time we propose a solution (to homelessness) we get slammed for it."
But Councilman Marqueece Harris-Dawson said a lack of money is stopping the city from cleaning up skid row, not the judge's injunction. The city's annual cleanup costs soared to $31 million last year.
"Most districts in the rest of the city don't have the resources to implement (ordinance) 56.11," the city's law governing the storage of homeless people's property on sidewalks and in other public places, Harris-Dawson said. "We just don't have the capacity."
The council's decision Wednesday followed more than three hours of closed-door deliberations. Four public hearings have been held on the issue in recent months, including three before the city's Homelessness and Poverty Committee.
Details of the settlement remain unclear, though.
"The testimony at the past three homelessness and poverty committee meetings and [the] council meeting today showcase the broad concerns of continuing the status quo, and how we need a new approach to the cycle of lawsuits the city faces and solving our region's homelessness crisis with the decision," said Jessica Lall, president and chief executive officer of the Central City Association.
During the public comment period Wednesday, downtown business leader Carol Schatz told the council that the city had mortgaged its future in a "misguided attempt to buy temporary peace with activists."
But skid row residents and anti-poverty activists said the judge's injunction — parts of which are likely to be preserved in the settlement — help homeless people hang on to medication, identity documents, and other belongings critical to their survival. Otero had cited the city's confiscation of a homeless man's medication in his 2016 order.
Children's toys, recyclables and old furniture line the sidewalk at a homeless encampment beside the Harbor Freeway in downtown Los Angeles on Wednesday.
Homeless advocates also argued that said business groups want to criminalize homeless people, making it harder for them to get off the streets.
"The business community has done a great job at confusing the issue," Steve Diaz with the Los Angeles Community Action Network, an anti-poverty group involved in the 2016 lawsuit, told the council Wednesday. "Encampments do not come from homeless people's constitutional rights. They come because of a lack of housing and lack of affordability."
In his council office after the meeting, Harris-Dawson said he did not expect the settlement to hurt or help skid row. Rather, he said, it would make it clear what the city can do as it works to improve the homeless enclave.
"I don't expect it to create worse conditions," Harris-Dawson said. "Skid row is a problem that accumulated over 50 years. This will make the rules clear...so we can focus on getting people housed."

When the idea of designing a touchscreen dashboard for its electric scooter came up at Ather Energy, it was unlike anything any of them had worked on earlier.
A touchscreen which should have high sunlight readability, impact resistant, water resistant - it meant relooking at everything the industry had been following till then.
Ather allowed its engineers to start on a clean slate.
Product startups are reinventing the approach to work, by allowing engineers to experiment with tech and innovate.
In contrast to conventional engineering jobs which are mostly operations-intensive or back-end driven, younger firms allow their engineers to build an entire product on their own.
"In the traditional manufacturing or automotive industry, all technologies and features are so matured after being followed for 30-40 years. There's only so much a fresh engineer can add to it. But here, he gets to do some passionate stuff like building something from absolute scratch and seeing it coming to life in its entirety. Not bearing the baggage of legacy, we can move, pivot and iterate faster." said Tarun Mehta, co-founder of Ather.
The startup, backed by Tiger Global and Flipkart founders, unveiled its first product earlier this year. Ather S340 - India's first smart electric scooter - had everything from the touchscreen interface to the battery pack to the hybrid aluminium chassis built in-house.
This was made possible after team members across departments coming up with ideas on real requirements of the customer and then worked their way backwards.
When experienced people are hired, the company imparts them almost six months of de-education to make them think this way.
Rajaram Swaminathan, who joined the company as director-hardware design and found it a major unlearning experience, notes, "The companies I've worked for in the past would drive product decisions and company strategies top down. The culture here allows every opinion to make its impact and every individual in the company has complete freedom to shape the product decisions".
IIT-Madras incubatee Swadha Energy, which focuses on reducing the power consumption using devices designed indigenously, took two years to develop and pilot its products.
But CEO Ankit Poddar is happy about it. "If any changes are required, now we can do it easily because we have total control over it. Had we outsourced it two years back, the time would have reduced by half but we would have been dependant on that company," he said.

In patients that have minimal skin laxity and good skin tone, liposuction alone can give you the definition and "lift" that is needed. Patients with loosening of the neck muscles that result in "banding" may require only a small incision beneath the chin to allow tightening and release of the neck muscles to re-define the neck contour. This is often performed in conjunction with liposuction of the neck. If significant skin laxity of the neck is present, you may require a limited incision around the base of the ears to allow better tightening of the neck muscles and for removal of the excess skin. Although a neck lift can be performed as an individual procedure, it is commonly performed at the same time as a facelift to optimize facial rejuvenation. Alternatively, for patients concerned about excess fat around neck and jawline giving a "double chin" appearance, Dr. Michaels may recommend Kybella, a non-invasive, FDA-approved injectable treatment that effectively eliminates this unsightly fat bulge on the chin and neck area.
