Netflix and Chill(y): What I'm Streaming This Cozy Season
On November 15, 2019 November 15, 2019 By MarshaIn Arts & Entertainment, Lifestyle
Both Disney and Apple have launched new streaming services recently, so is now the time for me to jump ship from my tried-and-true platform Netflix?
Heck, no.
Why? Because, in my opinion, Netflix has always been a great value, I can stream episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation whenever I want, and as we're entering cozy season in earnest, Netflix is about to release new seasons of three series I've been waiting for all year.
The Crown (Season 3)
Farewell Claire Foy and Matt Smith, hello Olivia Colman and Tobias Menzies! I've been waiting nearly all year for the third season of one of Netflix's most popular serial dramas.
Colman has long been a favorite since her days on Broadchurch and, more recently, Fleabag, and Menzies has been absolutely electric in Outlander on Starz. I'm looking forward to their interpretations of Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip as they navigate mid-life and a changing Britain.
Dubbed Netflix's answer to the Game of Thrones phenomenon (hopefully written with a much better ending), The Witcher stars Henry Cavill as Geralt of Rivia, a mutant and monster bounty hunter…I think. Admittedly, I don't know much about the series of novels and short stories by Polish writer Andrzej Sapkowski upon which the show is based, but fans of the series have been waiting for a film adaptation for a while. In spite of my relative ignorance about the storylines, I'm really excited about delving fully into a fantasy world again.
The first time I saw Cavill onscreen was as Charles Brandon in HBO's The Tudors, so I'm looking forward to seeing him again as Geralt.
Anne with an E (Season 3)
No, I don't just love Anne with an E for all of the fabulous knits. It's got a winning, well-loved story told from a fresh perspective, a strong cast fronted by the absolutely effervescent Amybeth McNulty, and breathtaking scenes from some of Canada's most beautiful landscapes.
I've already written about how much I love this update of the Anne of Green Gables story. I'm even more excited to see how this story continues to evolve in this iteration of one of my favorite book series.
More titles to stream on Netflix
Three series does not an entire cozy season streaming library make, so there are a few other Netflix originals that have piqued my interest and will likely make it into my streaming queue this fall and winter:
"Time passes and tension mounts in a Florida police station as an estranged interracial couple awaits news of their missing teenage son." Starring Kerry Washington and Stephen Pasquale; released November 1, 2019.
An "incisive and compassionate look at a marriage coming apart and a family staying together." Starring Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver; release date December 6, 2019.
Goodbye, Pope Benedict, hello, Pope Francis. Two Popes is "an intimate look at a historic turning point in the Catholic Church." Starring Anthony Hopkins and Jonathan Pryce; release date December 20, 2019.

One thought on "Netflix and Chill(y): What I'm Streaming This Cozy Season"

Thanks for visiting Em's Life After 40! I will add to my watchlist – am already a HUGE fan of Anne with an E and The Crown. Nothing like a cozy winter evening for Netflix…


For Archer Scavenger Hunt 2016 I created this six minute ASCII animation to fill in the back story of Dr Krieger's pets and their perilous journey from New York to Los Angeles. The story is loosely based on the movie Homeward Bound.
The first thing I did was a proof of concept animation. I made a walk cycle for each character – common practice in regular animation, but in the text-based ASCII genre elaborate movements are almost completely unheard of. I assume because of how archaic and tedious the whole process is. No mouse, no stylus, no keyframes or other modern crutches. The only tool is a simple text editor (ok, so there's a few ASCII drawing programs but I found them unsuitable for creating frame based animation).
Creating ASCII art is a slow process – the visuals are created by typing different letters, numbers and symbols, often trying different combinations until you achieve the desired look. ASCII animation is no different, except you have to do it hundreds, maybe thousands of times. Each 'frame' is made up of just 14 lines and 65 columns, and one of those lines is wasted by a number that tells the computer how long to display that frame for.
A successful animation test inspired me to take the idea further.
Once the walk-cycle was complete, I could see the potential in developing this into something much more ambitious than your typical run-of-the-mill ASCII animation. Seeing the long, tedious path ahead of me, my friends doubted my sanity, but undeterred, I soldiered on.
To be more than a neat demo it needed a story behind it, a narrative that could stand up on it's own. Something with a beginning, a middle and an end. The idea of a Homeward Bound homage was suggested by the producers but it needed fleshing out. With nobody volunteering to help, I came up with a basic outline that fit into the Archer universe, then expanded it into a six minute short film script.
Then it was full steam ahead on the animation. The finished ASCII text file was 29,457 lines long with over 1.8 million ASCII characters, a significant number of them placed by hand.
My ASCII Bound script beside some 'frames' of animation taken from the 29,457 line ASCII text file.
I would be a maniac if I didn't at least try to find a few shortcuts. Copy and paste helped out a lot, but it was not without it's problems – in a text file, every line and column is connected to the next so any disturbance can wreak havoc and throw everything out of alignment. I discovered that the program TextMate has a unique feature that allows you to drag a box over an exact multi-row section without selecting entire lines. This helped a great deal.
Standard copy & paste vs TextMate's advanced multi-row copy & paste.
I almost forgot to mention, the whole purpose of this endeavor was to simply hide a puzzle for Archer Scavenger Hunt 2016, which was underway at the time. ASCII Bound was ostensibly created by the show's resident mad scientist and possible scavenger hunt mastermind Dr. Krieger, who would reveal his ASCII creation to the world in a tweet which would link to the animation's YouTube page.
The YouTube version of ASCII Bound features Krieger admiring his creation. His computer screen reveals he's watching the animation on Telnet, an antiquated text-based way of connecting to the internet that pre-dates the rich visual web we know today. The address is telnet figgis.agency and to the delight of the scavenger hunters, the address was real and the animation could actually be watched on Telnet in it's native text-based state. The link opened up a whole new dimension to the scavenger hunt and players willingly jumped down the rabbit hole.

Rock and Roll and Beyond
Georgia Dentel, the woman who put Grinnell College on the musical map
At 89, Georgia Dentel's recall for conversations with people 50 years ago is clear and eloquent, much like her voice. From her easy chair at the Mayflower Community Health Center in Grinnell, she tells stories about performers and agents and concert promoters. The longer she talks, the stronger her voice becomes.
In 1960 when President Howard Bowen interviewed Dentel for the new position of activities counselor, he said, "I need activities. I need things happening for the students to do. I need to establish some sort of weekend activity, but I don't know what that should be."
"He didn't know what kind of things he wanted," Dentel says. She arrived on campus that fall not completely certain what her duties were. So she met with various students and formed a committee to oversee new ideas.
One of the early speakers was a local insurance man who talked about marriage. He got the best response, Dentel says.
"It emerged gradually that the only thing students wanted were concerts," she says. "They wanted rock and roll." There were a couple of bands in Iowa, but Dentel hated to bring them because they weren't very good, she says.
"It occurred to me that the best bands of the country were at Fillmore East and Fillmore West," Dentel says of the music venues in New York City and San Francisco, respectively. So she called Bill Graham, the legendary concert promoter and artist manager who was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1992. "I asked him if he had any bands that would make a trip to the Midwest for the Grinnell College homecoming. For the amount of money we could offer — it was very small — I can't believe I had the nerve to ask him.
"He said, 'No, I really don't.' But we talked a little while. I told him I wanted only the best. I didn't want a lot of trashy stuff.
"He said, 'I don't have anybody right now, but there's a band I'm thinking of bringing into the Fillmore. They're playing in a club.'"
Even though Graham didn't say so explicitly, Dentel could tell that the band wasn't making much money, so the College could probably afford them.
"Just as we were about to hang up," Dentel says, "I said, 'Oh, by the way, what's their name?'
Jefferson Airplane played for Grinnell's homecoming dance, Oct. 22, 1966.
"Music was in my life always," Dentel says. She played clarinet in the concert band and marching band at the University of Iowa, where she earned her bachelor's degree in English and history in 1948.
When she arrived at Grinnell in 1960, "music was largely out of a jukebox," Dentel says. The jukebox was in the Student Union, a former Army barracks in about the same location as the Forum, which was then in the planning stages.
The Student Union was a "rickety wooden building," says John Gleysteen '63, "but to us a very lively place." As chairman of the Student Union his junior year and social coordinator his senior year, Gleysteen worked closely with Dentel.
"She was very helpful to me in making suggestions of who to bring for what time," Gleysteen says. "She obviously knew her field. We all had our ideas as to what we wanted to do. She didn't make an effort to intercede and do things her way instead of our way. She was truly there to facilitate."
Jack Spence '64, concerts chair in 1963–64, agrees. "Georgia asked for suggestions and offered suggestions," he says. "She played an entrepreneurial role and a mediator role. Her goal, I think, was having events spread throughout the year instead of one big concert. I can remember her sort of cajoling us. She'd say, 'If we have such and such a group, we can afford this, but it means we'll have fewer groups.'"
At that time, most colleges were giving one big dance per semester. For the 1963 Christmas Formal at Grinnell, Count Basie played, and for the 1964 Spring Formal, Louis Armstrong played.
Learning on the job
Dentel says, "There were some students who had wonderful record collections. Students knew more about the artists than I did, but I knew how to get in touch with them."
Figuring out how to book artists was the main thing she had to learn. "When I was learning about this, it was really self-taught," she says. "I became acquainted with a couple of bands playing in Cedar Rapids. This fellow turned out to be a pretty good source of people in Chicago, and it kind of gradually developed."
When it came to negotiating about money, Dentel says, "I just had to work with what I had. Some of these bands became very, very expensive as time went on, but at first they were up against it as far as money was concerned."
Gary Giddins '70, concerts chair in 1967–68 and social coordinator for 1968–69, says, "What I discovered was any band that tours, they hate a night without a gig. Maybe they're doing Chicago and St. Louis. We'd get bands for a decent price — Duke Ellington's 15-piece band for $4,000, whereas a three-piece rock band was $12,000.
"Georgia really understood that jazz groups were getting a fraction that rock groups were getting and that my obligation was to provide something every month," Giddins says. "Since I loved jazz, she made it very clear to me that I could probably do something every month — B.B. King, the Carter family, Doc Watson. Whereas if you have a rock band, you squander your whole thing on one night.
"Georgia knew every agent, and if she didn't, she never questioned me — my taste or me. She gave me a lot of leeway that way. And then she'd take over as soon as I gave her the telephone number. She'd make the deal."
Even when she was able to pull off something fabulous — like a Pete Seeger concert — she sometimes got pushback. "Some faculty didn't like that Pete Seeger was on a weeknight," she says. She'd tried to get Seeger "many, many times in the past. He was almost unreachable." Darby Gym was packed that Tuesday, Oct. 21, 1969. Dentel says, "If the students wanted something, they could usually get it. Pressure on the administration would cause them to give in. I don't think [students] really understood how much influence they had."
Professional reputation
As a result of Dentel's growing reputation among agents, they eventually started calling her. She recalls an agent calling to see if she was planning to bring Bruce Springsteen to campus.
"He'd mentioned him to me before," Dentel says, "but I didn't know who Springsteen was. I said, 'Yes, I am.' This was May that he called. He said, 'If you want him, you should take him now because by fall he's going to be out of your reach.' I said, 'I don't know. I've never booked two years out.' He talked me into it."
Brian Mann '76 was social coordinator when Springsteen played at Grinnell on Sept. 20, 1975, a month after his album Born to Run was released. Springsteen was on the October covers of Time and Newsweek.
Mann says Springsteen's people "did everything in their power to get out of the concert because they were playing these big venues then. So they started making all these demands. They started saying, 'Well, the little gym you have us playing in can't handle our light show.' So Georgia worked it out to drain the power from the science building to support it. 'We're going to need a big spread of fruit.' Done. 'We're going to need security.' Done. So I'm sure the cost of the concert doubled. It was a major event. Georgia was amazing in navigating that. I'm told that the Springsteen people joked for years about the private party they played in Grinnell," Mann says.
Job in jeopardy
In 1976, Dentel was at the top of her game. Even so, her position and four others — all but one held by women — were eliminated during an administrative reorganization instituted by President A. Richard Turner. The changes were to take effect the next fiscal year.
Waldo Walker, professor emeritus of biology, was Turner's executive vice president then. "When Turner came to campus as a newly-appointed president," Walker says, "he mentioned to me early on that he believed that the administration was too large, especially in regard to middle-administration positions, considering the financial stress which the budget was experiencing at that time.
"Georgia was having no problems," Walker adds, "and as far as I could see she was doing a good job getting really big-name entertainers to come to Grinnell College. Her track record there was excellent."
During an open forum in the South Lounge of the Forum Sept. 22, 1976, Turner told several hundred students that he would not reconsider his decision about eliminating Dentel's position.
Dozens of students and alumni wrote Turner letters describing Dentel's expertise and significant impact on campus. Turner sent a standard letter back, writing in part, "We are well aware of the quality of her work in the area of social programming and booking events for college performances. Unfortunately, the College is in a posture of budget reduction that forces us to reduce the number of middle level administration by three positions."
Faculty members were also concerned. Joseph Wall '41, professor of history, was on leave in 1976–77 and wrote to Turner: "Part of the difficulty for the faculty and students may lie in the fact that this plan was put into operation during the summer." Students raised this point too.
Wall also addressed another sensitive issue — possible sexism. "The questions of principle that seem to be raised by this reorganization are centered around the issue of women administrative and staff personnel in very visible roles," Wall wrote. "At a time when the faculty is being urged nationally and locally, legally and ethically, to make an all-out effort to bring highly qualified women to the teaching staff, the abrupt lopping off of three administrative and staff women naturally raises serious questions among the faculty and students."
Turner replied, "I think the question, which I realize is not yours personally, as to whether the whole thing was rigged to get rid of women, is despicable." For Turner, the move was about saving money. In his postscript to Wall, Turner wrote, "As you all too well know, there has not been any serious attempt to tighten up the administration in 15 years. The tendency has been to move people around and not face the issue."
The uproar lasted until fall break, by which time Turner changed his mind. Dentel was offered a half-time position, which she eventually accepted.
D. A. Smith, professor emeritus of history and a great friend of Dentel's, says, "They put her on half time, but she found it impossible to reduce her work hours accordingly."
Dentel's job was threatened again in 1984 — and again the issue was budgetary and again students protested vigorously. Smith believes a handful of trustees intervened on her behalf. Dentel doesn't talk about these difficulties, however.
The voice on the phone
Dentel did not have a typical 8-to-5 job — even when it was full-time. She worked year-round because, she says, "I had to be available to bookers and managers." She often worked late into the evening, making calls to booking agents to line up performers for concerts, much of which she did from home.
After the early 1970s, the students who worked closely with Dentel knew her only on the phone.
"She was sort of mysterious," says Pat Irwin '77, concerts co-chair 1976–77. He spoke with her on the phone frequently. "She was the expert. She knew the world, the business. She was the adult in the room."
Dan Klatz '84 recalls her great voice. "She was animated, engaging, thoughtful on the phone," he says. "She clearly wanted to connect with people in meaningful ways."
"She was always fun to talk to," says Leif Larsen '88, concerts chair during his senior year. "She had a good sense of humor. She was always interested in what was happening on campus."
Smith says, "Probably Georgia's greatest enjoyment in the whole job was working with students who found her a sympathetic person." Dentel retired in 2001.
Giddins, who became a major jazz critic, says, "I got to talk with Duke Ellington and meet Louis Armstrong. So I got to learn about [jazz] from the musicians themselves."
Irwin, who became a professional musician, says, "I think of her as one of the more impactful people in my experience at school. As important as it might have been to write a paper or research a project, for me, meeting musicians, making dates work, working with her was unforgettable."

Judging by media's role in such post-Cold War crises as the Persian Gulf War, Somalia, Bosnia, and Chechnya, there seems to be a symbiosis between governments and the media in the coverage of international affairs. The Diplomatic Arena In addition to traditional intergovernmental diplomacy, global communication seems to have generated three new types of diplomacy, which may be labeled public, people, and virtual diplomacy.
Radio communication has a bias for two-way communication, but when introduced into a commercial or government controlled social environment, it assumes the character of one-way broadcasting.
Numerous other individuals and groups are also engaged in such efforts. To turn to another policy arena, the question of patent and copyright protection is primarily a commercial issue.
Growth, Poverty and Inequality in Latin America: Whether this is just a short-term downturn in a general trend of sustained economic growth, as neoclassical economists argue, remains to be seen. In this process, the media follows Media relations macro structural level essay pattern of story-telling that has been well-established in the American Westerns with enormous success at the box office, i.
The Media's War in the Persian Gulf: Entman describes framing as "the process of culling a few elements of perceived reality and assembling a narrative that highlights connections among them to promote a particular interpretation.
Good governance is paramount for achieving legitimate public participation, and therefore fostering dialogue. Electronic media especially television broadcasts provide a greater sense of reality which sometimes provide more credibility than others and stronger influence to the audiences.
Though the quality of the research has been called into question, one of the findings suggested a direct role between movies depicting delinquent adolescents and delinquent behaviors in adolescents.

Framing[ edit ] News outlets can influence public opinion by controlling variables in news presentation. The peculiarity lies in the lack of strong institutions, which leads to conflict, which then creates institutional arrangements that perpetuate conflict and the whole situation prevents development.
The religious policy of a state thus has profound consequences for its cultural policy. But even when the state is not captured, it may face enormous constraints due to lack of financial resources and trained personnel. This is not to say that developing countries should not be responsible for their own poor economic performance.
However, it has important consequences for a country's international obligations. It is very easy for a movie to become caught up in making its films look artistic that they begin to make their audiences indifferent to the true horror that is taking place on screen.
Rubenstein's view is certainly crucial, but could be extended to include some other important links beyond ethnic, racial and religious conflicts. The central dilemma of how to balance cultural diversity with national unity is a perennial problem for any national cultural policy.
Functionalism fails to recognise social change, contrasting to Marxism which recognises and aspires to it. Audiences learn and conduct their political sights of view from reading, listening to the political analysis and evaluation.
The possibilities for virtual diplomacy through the Internet as well as audio or video conferencing are thus immense and will no doubt be exploited further in years to come.
From a mediation perspective, the global communication networks and media act as negotiating arenas among conflicting authorities, legitimacies, and identities of governments and opposition groups. As the images of the bloody battlefields reached American homes, the Pentagon's claims of victory were increasingly questioned and anti-war sentiments among the public forced the government to finally withdraw from that country.
Politicians and political operatives can simulate the political virtues of transparency through rhetorical and media manipulation. Authoritarian media policies often follow the dictates of tradition. Without democratic institutions that can guarantee minimum standards of transparency from the government, the level of trust in any given society is generally low.
However, every society has deviants and so this statement is a little too confident. It provides both a forum for the discussion of current issues and a channel through which opinions are formed. Public is not only an information receiver anymore. Public diplomacy has thus assumed an increasing importance in the conduct of foreign policy.

No one really knows the dangers involved when fighting the demonic, unless you are a victim or the person that is known as the Exorcist.
ONTARIO, Calif. - Dec. 31, 2014 - PRLog -- There should be no doubt of the existence of good versus evil in the world we live in. Whether it's the evil that man do or the evil that can be seen in man, evil can never hind its ugly face.
In this enlightened time, when strange behavior in the human condition can be identified by the psychiatry community as a chemical imbalance, nothing more, and evil or demonic possession and demons only exist in the mind, not in the real world. Of course this point of view is not always shared by all for there are a few psychiatrists who are open enough to think "outside the box" and will acknowledge that sometimes psychiatry may not have all the answers and some symptoms cannot be explained.
Everyone has seen the movies and read the many books on this dark and troubling subject. In our modern age of worldwide technology where anyone who has access to a computer can do an Internet search on the paranormal and find people claiming everything from witnessing ghosts in haunted locations to people with symptoms of demonic possession.
Many people who find themselves with such problems may first contact their local paranormal investigation group before contacting the clergy, in fear of being rejected, ridicule or dismissed for having mental issues.
It's a little known fact that very few ministries will support the claims of demonic possession, since psychiatry is more acceptable in this day and age of modern time. Paranormal investigation groups are helpful to a certain point. But when the case is demonic in nature, people with such problems should search an organization that has experience in demonic investigation and assessments, with clergy and medical psychiatrists support.
The Order of Exorcists is such an organization, with demonic assessment teams, lead investigators, clergy and medical/psychiatrists members, ready to work together when requested for case assessments. The organization is International, with members in 24 countries.
In 2013 a family contacted the Order of Exorcists http://www.orderofexorcists.weebly.com and requested a team to conduct a demonic assessment. Three weeks later, after the first contact interview and assessment with a medical and psychological report which was reviewed by the chief exorcist, Archbishop Ron Feyl who is the Presiding bishop of the Independent Catholic organization known as the Order of Exorcists, decided to perform the ritual himself.
The team of eight along with The Reverend Mother Susan who heads up the Order of Saint Hilda, whose members are prayer warriors and serve as assistants in rituals of exorcism, met in front of the victim's house and prayed for protection before entering the house.
"This was not the typical case, but no cases are, when it comes to demonic infestation. Apparently many years ago the former residents had performed satanic rituals where sacrifices may have taken place.
The family reported that after a few months living in the house they witnessed and felt things happening including physical attacks on family members including touching and pushing. They even stated a family member was pushed down the stairs.
During the investigation, team members and The Reverend Mother Susan heard knocking throughout the house and felt the temperature decrease.
On the day of the exorcism the team members gathered in a circle around the room, where the Archbishop Ron Feyl standing in the center begin the ritual.
The following is what happened in the words of the exorcist.
"I was attacked by one of many demonic entities. In the past I can remember being attacked in past rituals when I fought the demonic, but this time I almost lost the battle as well as my life." as The Archbishop Feyl continues.
"I felt three penetrating blows to my left rib cage which took my breath away. I continued to read the ritual and prayers to the end. We were successful, but at a cost. Immediately after the case I started to have shortness of breath and pains on my left side rib case. After going to my family physician who suggested I get a chest x-ray. It was at that time I was immediately admitted to San Antonio Hospital in Upland California, where I learned that I had a sack of two liters of blood around my heart."
"I was told that the blood kept my heart from efficiently pumping and caused my lungs and belly to develop fluid caused by the leakage. I was in the critical care unit for almost one month, with electrical leads and tubes running out of my chest. I had three operations while I was there."
"The doctors has no idea in what caused my condition. I was instructed to take 40 pills a day for the next six months, which caused all kind of side efforts."
"Since that case my life has never been the same. The side efforts of the medication I was on give me Tinnitus, which is a continues rings in both ears and I'm slowly losing my hearing. I have muscle aches and pain most of the time."
"I have been fighting the demonic more then half my life, over 36 years, and I can attest to the fact that we are at war. The battle of good versus evil is real and those of us who fight on the frontline of the battlefield can get hurt."
"Just like a soldier who is called to fight for their country, we are called by God to serve Him and willing to put our life on the line for God's people."
As said by the Archbishop Ron Feyl, chief exorcist in the Order of Exorcists.
Demons, Demonic Haunting, Demonic Possession, are they REAL? Who Should You Contact?

Halifax police stop illegal cannabis transportation, nab bevy of fake MVI stickers at checkpoints
CTV Atlantic Published Friday, June 14, 2019 9:42PM ADT Last Updated Friday, June 14, 2019 10:21PM ADT
Cellphone use and having no insurance were just two of the problems police found when they set up checkpoints this week.
They also encountered some more surprising issues, like a man transporting a number of large marijuana plants in his vehicle.
"There is a prescribed number which you are allowed to have and he had above that number," said Halifax police spokesman Const. John MacLeod. "It's a 32-year-old man that's been charged under the Cannabis Act and he's scheduled to appear in court at a later date for that."
Thirty people were stopped for driving with bald tires at two checkpoints in the city, while on the other end of the traction spectrum, four drivers were caught with studded tires -- in the middle of June.
Perhaps the most surprising thing police found was that 18 motorists were caught with fake inspection stickers on their vehicles.
"Our officers over the years have come across individuals who have tried to make counterfeit stickers, or circumvent the program so that they can operate their vehicle with it being unsafe to be on the road," MacLeod said.
A Coast Tire employee says they've been seeing fake inspection stickers around Halifax for a few years now.
"We have heard of it," said Peter McFetridge. "We haven't encountered really any of it, here, that I can recall, at least this year."
In Nova Scotia, vehicles must be inspected every two years.
McFetridge say it's important to have a mechanic properly inspect your vehicle.
"Unfortunately, with these fake stickers, yeah, you run into that problem, where you have vehicles going down the road in unsafe conditions," McFetridge said.
The department of transportation and infrastructure renewal says they are also aware of fraudulent motor vehicle inspection stickers in the province and have added new inspectors to their staff, so they can spend more time addressing the issue.
Halifax police can't say if they're seeing more fake inspection stickers these days, but, are looking to combat the issue.
"Our officers are looking for those folks that are out there, they are pulling those vehicles off the road," MacLeod said.

Soldiers trade rifles for snow shovels to help dig out St. John's


Property lecturer and Property Investment Professionals of Australia (PIPA) chairman Peter Koulizos shares the suburbs set to grow in each capital city.
Despite market fluctuations, Mr Koulizos believes that there is an abundance of investment opportunities across the capital cities—even in the softening markets of Sydney and Melbourne.
According to him, the only secret to finding the best location for property investment is going back to the fundamentals of a good property.
The property lecturer said: "Look for undervalued areas around prime hubs. It's not just based on median price because before it might just be really cheap because the soil is contaminated."
Of all the capital cities, Brisbane might just be the best contender for growth. Mr Koulizos said that, at any moment, the capital city 'should start firing'.
"Adelaide and Brisbane, I think, are the two picks. There's plenty of picks for Brisbane," the property lecturer said.
Adelaide's inner west can also expect to see significant growth over the coming months due to gentrification, according to Mr Koulizos.
Gentrification also plays a big role in the growth suburbs of Melbourne.
However, unlike most markets where houses are deemed better investments than units, Mr Koulizos believes that investors would be better off in the Victorian capital with 'old-style flats and units' or small properties as investments.
"Ideally, I'd say buy houses, but you're far better off buying a unit or a small property in a good location than a house or a big property in a poor location because you can never change location. For the same money, you're better off buying a flat or a unit, but never an apartment," the property lecturer highlighted.
Similar to Melbourne, Sydney's growth suburbs are all about gentrification and good location.
The 'unit strategy' can also work in the New South Wales' capital where affordability issues continue to affect the property market following the end of the property boom.
According to Mr Koulizos, investors will do well to find gentrified suburbs as well as locations with developing infrastructure and explore their neighbouring areas where the 'ripple effect' might be taking place.
"There's a train line that's heading out through there, across Stanmore, Petersham, Erskineville, and there could be that ripple effect. Newtown has virtually finished that gentrification process. Erskineville has almost finished it. Then, it's off to Enmore, St Peters, Tempe," he said.
Areas close to the city and to the river are investors' best bets in the Western Australia capital, according to Mr Koulizos.
Like Perth, suburbs close to the water are also Darwin's best areas for investment.
While there are good investment opportunities in Tasmania, Mr Koulizos warns investors against low-quality housing.
As always, according to the property lecturer, staying near the city centre is the best way to maximise wealth-creation potential.

Good job keeping up with the QAL's - Alida's block looks great in grey and pink! Thanks for sharing!
I love your beaver block, especially the way you quilted it! And that Postcards from Sweden HST quilt is one that has caught my eye as well. It's really beautiful and I hope you enjoy making it!
Your beaver block looks so good! I really like the wood grain quilting I can see peeking out of the checkerboard tail. Neat!
I know what you mean about not being able to sleep when your brain is full of quilty ideas. Sometimes I have to force myself to just breathe and not spin around all the possibilities.
Oh my! The quilting on your beaver really kicks the design up a notch!
I agree with you about ebjoy9ing having projects in various stages of completion. It lets me pick whichever task I'm in the mood for. As long as I don't have so many that I can't decide what to work on, it's a good strategy.
You are making lots of progress! So glad to have you quilting along in the Postcard From Sweden QAL!
Hot Dog...I see England's souvenir posted! Love the color of the teapot. It is so lovely and I cannot wait to see your 'chain' applied!
So many projects on the go! I like the way you are depicting my life with the England quilt. You don't want to know how much tea I get through in a day.
The beaver quilt is really sweet, and I agree, quilting is the fun part of the process.

Radioskaf (, též známý jako SuitSat nebo Radio Sputnik) byl neobvyklý ruský satelit, totiž skafandr typu Orlan po záručné lhůtě s rádiovým vysílačem umístěným v přilbě. Radioskaf-1 byl vypuštěn na dočasnou oběžnou dráhu okolo Země 3. února 2006. Myšlenka na takovýto neobvyklý satelit byla poprvé formálně představena na sympóziu AMSAT v říjnu 2004, ale za její autora je označován ruský tým ARISS, který chtěl takto oslavit 175 výročí založení Moskevského státního technického institutu.

Radioskaf-1

Vypuštění bylo původně plánováno na 6. prosince 2005, ale Radioskaf-1 vstoupil na svou vlastní oběžnou dráhu 3. února 2006 ve 23:02 UTC, když ho vzal na kosmickou procházku z Mezinárodní vesmírné stanice Valerij Tokarev a Bill McArthur. Hlasové zprávy nahrané vývojovým týmem a studenty z celého světa byly ze skafandru spolu s telemetrickými daty opakovaně vysílány v mnoha jazycích. Signál se začal ozývat asi 15 minut po odhození a byl přenášen zařízením na palubě ISS. Kdokoliv, kdo zachytil signál mohl zapsat na suitsat.org detaily o čase, místě a obsahu zprávy. Jako dlouho bude signál vysílán se přesně nevědělo, ale osudem Radioskafu-1 bylo shořet v atmosféře.

Skafandr dostal katalogové číslo 28933 a mezinárodní označení (COSPAR) 2005-035C, což je trochu nelogické, protože je odvozené od označení Progressu M-54 (2005-035A), s kterým ale nemá tento skafandr žádnou spojitost. Byl totiž dopraven na palubu ISS 17. září 2001 na palubě modulu Pirs. Progress M-54 (2005-035A) však vynesl radioamatérskou vysílačku, která byla do skafandru vložena.

Nakonec mise Radioskaf-1 nebyla úplným úspěchem. NASA TV druhý den po vypuštění oznámila, že Radioskaf přestal vysílat kvůli selhání baterii, jen po dvou obězích. Pozdější zprávy hovořily, že Radioskaf-1 pokračoval ve vysílání, ale velmi slabšího signálu, než se původně očekávalo, takže bylo zaznamenáno vysílání, ale jen málo zpráv o srozumitelnosti potvrzeném příjmu.

Familiárně byl pojmenován "Ivan Ivanovič" nebo "Mr. Smith". Rádiový signál vysílal na frekvenci 145,990 MHz.

Naposledy byl signál zaznamenán 21. února 2006 v 08:11:38 UTC.

Investing In Education Is Only Hope For The Future: Adi Godrej
While making a keynote address, Adi Godrej, Chairman, Godrej Group stated, "I of course never had the opportunity to meet Gandhiji. He passed away when I was a very little kid. But I had the pleasure in meeting Nelson Mandela in Davos where he had come to speak there and where in fact some of the discussions for the changes in South Africa were held with the President, de Klerk. Both Gandhi and Mandela believed that education is a must, for a society.
by Avishek Banerjee
The Gandhi Mandela Peace Initiative celebrated the 150th birth-anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi and the 100th birth-anniversary of Nelson Mandela. BW Businessworld Chairman and Editor-in-chief, Dr. Annurag Batra in association with Tarina Patel, Founder of RBP Foundation and Kartikeya Sharma, Founder of The Sunday Guardian Foundation organized the event in Delhi on July 11.
While making a keynote address, Adi Godrej, Chairman, Godrej Group stated, "I of course never had the opportunity to meet Gandhiji. He passed away when I was a very little kid. But I had the pleasure in meeting Nelson Mandela in Davos where he had come to speak there and where in fact some of the discussions for the changes in South Africa were held with the President, de Klerk. Both Gandhi and Mandela believed that education is a must, for a society to realize all the core values that they fought so hard all their lives. Education is indispensable for a society to be tolerant, equal and a peace-loving. Mandela said education is the most powerful weapon to change the world. Mandela's words couldn't be true in today's scenario. As we look at the world around us today with rising poverty, inequality, violence, and crime, investing in education is our only hope for the future".
He also maintained, "Literacy in itself is not education". As Gandhi said, this is an important distinction to recognize as we often confuse education with literacy. If literacy alone were enough, increasing literacy levels must on its own have taken care of several issues. But sadly, that is not been the case. Of course, one must acknowledge the massive efforts of the government and organizations across the world over several decades towards providing better education to the children and youngsters. But, certainly more needs to be done".
"Mahatma Gandhi and Nelson Mandela are global leaders who have inspired millions of lives. They both were similar in their views. Mahatma Gandhi's strong views on equality, non-violence, and respect became the bedrock of India's Independence movement. We had deep roots in the experiences of a much younger time. Nelson Mandela spearheaded the movement against apartheid, racist oppression of the non-white majority of South Africa. Such deep-rooted was his angst against such oppression and the urge to unshackle his fellow countrymen from it that spent 27 years in prison. He championed the non-violent transition of South Africa from a white minority regime to a non-racial majority rule in 1994. He fought for equality and respect, all his life. In his words, peace can only exist in every individual in a society. Wealthy is wealthy regardless of where he leaves and regardless of his status. It is indeed true that Mandela and Gandhi had very similar ideologies and Mandela had himself mentioned on many occasions that he is inspired by Gandhi," Godrej further added.

Hellsing (stylized in all caps) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Kouta Hirano. It was serialized in Shōnen Gahōsha's seinen manga magazine Young King OURs from May 1997 to September 2008, with its chapters collected in ten tankōbon volumes. The series chronicles the efforts of the mysterious and secret Hellsing Organization as it combats vampires, ghouls, and other supernatural foes who threaten England. The series was licensed for English language release in North America by Dark Horse Comics. From 2002 to 2006, Hirano released a six-chapter prequel series, Hellsing: The Dawn, in Young King OURs Zōkan (later Young King OURs+ before ceasing publication).

A thirteen-episode anime television series adaptation by Gonzo, directed by Umanosuke Iida and Yasunori Urata, with screenplay by Chiaki J. Konaka, was broadcast on Fuji TV from October 2001 to January 2002. A ten-episode original video animation (OVA), titled Hellsing Ultimate, was produced by Geneon. It followed the manga storyline more closely than the anime series. It was released between February 2006 and December 2012. In North America, both the TV series and the OVA were first licensed by Geneon Entertainment and later by Funimation.

Plot

Hellsing is named after and centered around the Royal Order of Protestant Knights originally led by Abraham Van Helsing. The mission of Hellsing is to search for and destroy the undead and other supernatural forces of evil that threaten the queen and the country. This organization is currently led by Sir Integra Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing, who inherited the leadership of Hellsing as a child after the death of her father. She witnessed his death which turned her from a once innocent and shy little girl to a tough and deadly force.  She is protected by the faithful Hellsing family butler Walter C. Dornez, a deadly foe in his own right, and Alucard, the original and most powerful vampire, who swore loyalty to the Hellsing family after being defeated by Van Helsing one hundred years before the story takes place. These formidable guardians are joined early on in the storyline by former police officer Seras Victoria, whom Alucard turned into a vampire.

As the scale and frequency of incidents involving the undead escalate in England and all around the world, Sir Integra discovers that the remnants of a Nazi group called Millennium still exist and are intent on reviving Nazi Germany by creating a battalion of vampires. Millennium, Hellsing, and the Vatican section XIII Iscariot clash in an apocalyptic three-sided war in London, and Millennium reveals its true objective: to destroy the vampire lord Alucard, ending a feud begun during World War II.

Production
In 1996, manga author Kouta Hirano published a one-shot, titled Hellsing: The Legends of Vampire Hunter, in Wanimagazine's hentai magazine Comic Kairakuten. Hirano commented that it was not his intention to create a story of this genre, and that he only wanted to create a "somewhat daring" action story. Hirano said that the original story did not take him long to create, and that the fact that he was drawing hentai at the time afforded him the opportunity to have it published. Afterwards, Hirano considered to create another story, using the same setting, removing the erotic side and focusing more on the action, explaining that this was the origin of Hellsing. Given its "atypical" universe, Hirano and the publisher, Shōnen Gahōsha, decided to test the reception with readers, explaining that that was the reason why the start of the series may seem "a little disjointed", and that after the reception turned out to be positive, it was decided to make it a serialized work.

Hirano stated that he wanted to make a story with gunplay, but that a story of vampires with guns would not work with Alucard being portrayed as a "formulaic vampire", so Hirano added him a hat and a long coat, stating: "[i]t's still dark and ominous, but just more suited to his behavior. I always come up with the characters before the story." Hirano said that he received various comments comparing Alucard's design to Vash the Stampede from Trigun (whose continuation, Trigun Maximum, was also published in Young King OURs), expressing that he "shouldn't have given him the sunglasses". Hirano said that, due to the "dark, desolate story", he wanted to create someone who made the series "a bit warmer" and a female character involved as well, so he created the character of Seras Victoria, who offered the opportunity "for both of those at the same time", adding that she is "the only one who stands out from the darkness." Hirano commented that for the references to historical characters, mythology, and pop culture featured in the series, he did not do specific research, stating that he is not "someone with a lot of culture", but "just an otaku", and that all the references came from what he had saw and read out of "otaku passion".

The anime producer, Yasuyuki Ueda, commented that for Hellsing Ultimate he wanted to make it as an original video animation (OVA) instead of a television series due to the time limit that implies the former, and since he was a fan of the series, he wanted to take more time to "get more out of my system from the manga", adding that the OVA allowed him to do much more than the TV series. He discussed it with writer Yōsuke Kuroda and he agreed to write the script. Ueda commented, at the time, that various series were using CG animation, which he said that was "very time-consuming", especially when incorporating it to traditional animation, but that since the project would be an OVA, they did have the "luxury" to work with it, and that he wanted to use it for the weaponry and bullets to make them look realistic.

Media

Manga

Written and illustrated by Kouta Hirano, Hellsing was serialized for eleven years in Shōnen Gahōsha's seinen manga magazine Young King OURs from May 1997 to September 2008. Its 89 individual chapters were collected by Shōnen Gahōsha in ten tankōbon volumes, released from September 24, 1998, to March 27, 2009.

In North America, the series was licensed for English release by Dark Horse Comics in 2003. The ten volumes were released from December 1, 2003, to May 19, 2010. In January 2020, Dark Horse Comics announced that they would re-release the series in a three-volume deluxe edition, with over 600 pages each. The volumes were released from July 15, 2020, to June 16, 2021.

Chuang Yi licensed the series in English in Singapore. Madman Entertainment released the series in Australia and New Zealand.

Crossfire
Crossfire is a three-chapter one-shot story, which was published in the defunct Hobby Japan's magazine . It follows Heinkel Wolfe and Yumie Takagi, a Catholic nun and an assassin who work for the Iscariot organization. They call themselves "earthly agents of divine punishment". Crossfire also has cameos by Alexander Anderson and Enrico Maxwell, the head of Iscariot. Across the three chapters, Heinkel and Yumie face a variety of opposition, including Islamic terrorists, communist revolutionaries, and finally, an obscure pagan cult. Crossfire as a side work was discontinued by Kouta Hirano, but it was republished in the first three volumes of Hellsing as an extra. Crossfire was adapted into a drama CD and included in Hellsing Ultimate OVA 6 and 7.

Hellsing: The Dawn
A prequel series, titled Hellsing: The Dawn, was published Young King OURs Zōkan (later Young King OURs+ before being discontinued), with six chapters released from the March 2002 to the March 2006 issues; the series remains incomplete. The Dawn features a fourteen-year-old Walter C. Dornez and Alucard, in the form of a young girl, attacking Millennium's base of operations in Nazi-controlled Poland in September 1944, during the Warsaw Uprising.

Anime

The manga was adapted into a thirteen-episode anime television series by Gonzo. The series was directed by Yasunori Urata, under the chief direction of Umanosuke Iida, and written by Chiaki J. Konaka. The series uses the same characters and settings, but narrates a different story from its source manga. It was broadcast on Fuji TV from October 11, 2001, to January 17, 2002. The series opening theme is  by Yasushi Ishii and the ending theme is "Shine" by Mr. Big.

Original video animation

In April 2005, it was announced that a new original video animation (OVA) adaptation, titled Hellsing Ultimate (still known simply as Hellsing in Japan), more faithful to the original manga than the TV series, would be released by Geneon Entertainment in Japan and North America. The first four episodes of the OVA were animated by Satelight, directed by Tomokazu Tokoro, and written by Yōsuke Kuroda; they were released from February 10, 2006, to February 22, 2008. The three following episodes (#5–7) were animated by Madhouse, directed by Hiroyuki Tanaka and written by Kuroda; they were released from November 21, 2008, to December 23, 2009. The three last episodes (#8–10) were animated by Graphinica, directed by Yasuhiro Matsumura (#8, 10) and Kenichi Suzuki (#9–10), and written by Kuroda; they were released from July 27, 2011, to December 26, 2012. Each limited edition of the last three episodes' home video release included an episode of Hellsing: The Dawn.

In North America, Geneon Entertainment released the first three episodes from December 5, 2006, to October 16, 2007. Geneon announced that they would stop self-distribution of its titles in 2007. The first two episodes were broadcast on Starz Edge's Animidnight programming block on February 12, 2008; episodes #3–4 were also announced to air, but the 4th episode was not ready with an English-language track at the time and they were not broadcast. In 2008, Funimation announced that they would distribute "select" Geneon titles, and re-released the first three episodes of Hellsing Ultimate on September 16 of the same year, along with the fourth episode on September 23. In 2010, Funimation announced that they had licensed the 5th through 7th episodes; in 2011, they announced that they had licensed the 8th episode as well. Funimation re-released the first four episodes on DVD/Blu-ray Disc sets on October 30, 2012, while episodes 5–8 were released on the same formats on November 13 of the same year. Episodes 9–10 were released on October 28, 2014. The series was broadcast on Adult Swim's Toonami programming block from September 13 to December 13, 2014. Funimation released all the episodes on a Blu-ray Disc set on June 4, 2019.

Soundtracks

An extra CD, titled Somehow, Iscariote, was released with the limited edition of the second Blu-ray box set on April 1, 2015.

Live-action film
In March 2021, it was announced that Amazon Studios is developing a live-action film adaptation of Hellsing with scripts by Derek Kolstad. It will be produced by Kolstad, Automatik's Brian Kavanaugh-Jones and Fred Berger, Ranger 7 Films's Mike Callaghan and Reuben Liber, and Soluble Fish Productions' Jason Lust.

Reception
The ten volumes of the Hellsing manga have sold 4 million copies worldwide. In 2005, the sixth and seventh volumes ranked among Diamond Comics Distributors' list of the top 48 manga volumes sold in the United States for the year.  In November 2007, the ninth volume was among the top 10 volumes sold according to Japan's monthly sales rankings.

In a review of the first volume, Winnie Chow of Animerica commented that the English translation "works to enhance the locations and people of the story", and noted that the original manga contains more comedy elements than its anime adaptation. Chow said that the series' violence is "everywhere, which is only to be expected when one is in the occupation of undead extermination", and that the characters are "magnificent to behold in action when they get into a frenzy, from crushing heads beneath their boot heels to impaling an enemy with an untold number of blessed blades", ultimately stating that Hirano "does violence right". Reviewing the first volume, Publishers Weekly called the series "mostly a fun, violent romp", stating that the "rather awkward" religious sparring between the Catholic Church and Hellsing, are "goofy details" that give it "some charm and energy". They concluded: "Hirano's storytelling is easy to follow, as stylish close-ups of the "we're-groovy-and-we-know-it" characters explode into violent full-page illustrations of all-out mayhem." In a review of the first volume, Barb Lien-Cooper of Sequential Tart gave it a 7 out of 10, commending the series for its worldbuilding and pacing, but criticizing the "repetitive violence", stating: "[y]ou've seen one blown off head, you've seen 'em all." Reviewing the first volume, Justin Rich of AnimeOnDVD gave it a B− grade. Rich commented that the series is consistent with the action, and while he stated that the first volume does not have a "real sense of a continuing arc", "orders here are very enjoyable", and concluded: "[s]itting down and spending some time with the blasé Alucard makes me look forward to the next volume." Connie C. of Slightly Biased Manga, in her review of the first volume, said: "[i]t's got just the right amount of blood and violence, great art, and I like everything about this series", concluding: "[r]ead it if you're in to this sort of thing, I promise you'll love it if you're not offended."

Reviewing the fourth volume, Liann Cooper of Anime News Network (ANN) said that one its "greatest strengths" is the impeccable storytelling of Hirano, calling the story "dark and gory", but also "incredibly amusing". Cooper concluded: "[c]ombined with highly detailed artwork and near flawless character designs, every action-packed, blood-spewing battle to each eerie character expression completes one of the most well-rounded manga series I've had the pleasure of reading. This is one horrifically enticing vampire series that you can't afford to miss." Hilary Goldstein of IGN, in a review of the sixth volume, called it "the best vampire manga around", and that it "clamors forward with a seething wit and a frantic pace, and style that passes beyond gothic grace." Reviewing the first volume, Ryan Huston of Manga Life gave the first volume a C− grade. Huston wrote that the series "borrow heavily" from the stylistic elements of Blade, Castlevania, The Crow, and BloodRayne, also calling it "very contrived", stating that "there's nary of whiff of originality", and criticizing the "inconsistent" artwork. In a more positive review of the eighth volume, Lori Henderson of the same website gave it an A grade. Henderson wrote: "I generally don't read blood-spilling horror manga, but for Hellsing, I make an exception", stating that she was "instantly hooked" by the series, concluding: "Hellsing is a title that totally lives up to its hype. The art is fantastic, and the story strings you along just enough to keep you coming back for more." Also reviewing the eighth volume, Katherine Dacey of PopCultureShock gave it a B+ grade. Dacey said that the plot of the volume is "absurd", but that "Hirano's bold visuals, insane plot twists, and extended action sequences make for an entertaining read, even when the plot makes absolutely no sense at all."

Reviewing the tenth and final volume, Davey C. Jones of Active Anime commented that it "doesn't disappoint but it is always sad to see such a great series come to an end", also expressing that the series has a "unique style and an awesome, mind bending anti-hero in Alucard", concluding that it is "hard not to keep from wanting more." Reviewing the same volume, Connie C., writing for PopCultureShock, gave it a B grade. She commented that the series is "ridiculous, violent, over-the-top, and absolutely revels in its debauchery", and called the epilogue "a little underwhelming", but stated, however, concludedt: "[i]t was violent and action-packed in the most extreme way possible all the way through and quiet moments feel out of place. It revels in depravity and does it better and marginally more coherently than most other series that try it. It's a true legend to the end." Carl Kimlinger of ANN gave the final volume a B grade. Kimlinger criticized its ending, stating that the final arc "finishes it in an undignified rush", and that it "falls back on some insultingly overused anime cheese to expedite its finish." Kimlinger, however, wrote that "a tired, rushed Hellsing is still Hellsing", adding that "[t]here's still enough demented ultraviolence and bizarre indulgences on display to shame all but the most transgressive of other manga."

Courtney Kraft of Graphic Novel Reporter said that one of the series' appeal is that "every cast member is very one-dimensional, and yet each is unique, interesting, and memorable", not only commending the main cast, but also the rival organizations, stating that "[t]here's no shortage of interesting characters to love." Kraft said that the series is "dark and violent and disturbing", but that despite its graphic nature "it should not be passed up." Kraft said that Hirano's artwork is "so detailed and full of motion that it's sometimes impossible to tell exactly what's happening", commenting that to some readers it may be "fascinating" and to others "just frustrating". Kraft concluded that reading the series is a "risk" and that people "either love it or hate it", but that "for those who love it, it can easily turn into an obsession." Reviewing the first volume of the deluxe edition, Danica Davidson of Otaku USA, commenting about its portrayal of Nazis as "monsters of the night", stated that the series "would probably work more in its absurdity if it stuck with fictional creatures." Davidson said that it is "an action-packed series with lots of bloody, gory battle scenes", and that the new edition "enlarges the pages so you can really appreciate the detail of the art", adding that Hirano's panels are "just fantastic at building a scene."

In Manga: The Complete Guide, author Jason Thompson gave the series 3 out of four stars, stating: "[a]lthough the story is technically sex-free, the phrase 'pornography of violence' doesn't begin to describe the fang-in-neck and gun-in-mouth action. lovingly drawn with gangly black silhouettes and rapacious, ghoulish faces", calling it as well a "masterpiece of fetishistic violence on a grand scale." Writing for ANN, Thompson called it one of his favorite manga. He commented that one of the fascinating things of the series is its willingness use religion and history as the motive for "this big fight-slash-slaughter", calling it "one of the most anti-religious comics ever" and "demented but completely sincere and original". Thompson concluded: "Hellsing is an epic ode to destruction and nihilism which happens to take the form of a vampire story [...] It may be confusing at times, it may go off the rails at times and go on a little too long, but it's a great manga with a lot of personal style and passion."

Although the colours and designs of Iznik pottery have held a special attraction for the European eye for the last century and a half, documented evidence of their interest in the sixteenth century is surprisingly scanty. The only literary evidence seems to be a suggestion by the Habsburg Ambassador in Istanbul in 1577 that the Bishop of Salzburg might wish to order some Iznik tiles, but no such order is known to have been placed. All the more important, therefore, is the set of dishes emblazoned with a European coat-of arms. Of this set, ten pieces are known to survive, and two are in the Ashmolean [EAX.3268 & WA1888.CDEF.C324].
Whose coat-of-arms it actually is, is not absolutely certain. The most likely candidate, however, seems to be a member of the Spingarolli de Dessa family of Dalmatia (northern Yugoslavia), whose blazon fits that on the Iznik dishes most precisely. The Dalmatian city of Ragusa (modern Dubrovnik) had a flourishing trade with the Levant in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, and an order for Iznik dishes from one of its merchants would be perfectly appropriate.
In the twentieth century, components of a dinner service are expected to be in an identical pattern. It is interesting to see that the Iznik dishes, though they are all decorated with a spray of flowers, bear different floral arrangements. For example, whereas in these two examples the blazon is set against the central flower stems, on some pieces it is framed by them, making a quite different visual impact.

Q: "Can't create test file /var/lib/mysql/user-desktop.lower-test": How to run mysql server on Xubuntu 13.04 (kubuntu-desktop) I have downloaded and unpacked MySQL 5.6.12 to /opt/mysql/server-5.6. I want to use this db instead of pre-installed 5.5 version. But neither version works.
When I want to start a server with mysqld --console (pre-installed version) I get this error:
user@user-desktop:~$ sudo mysqld --console
[sudo] password for user:
130719 19:26:17 [Warning] Can't create test file /var/lib/mysql/user-desktop.lower-test
130719 19:26:17 [Warning] Can't create test file /var/lib/mysql/user-desktop.lower-test
mysqld: Can't change dir to '/var/lib/mysql/' (Errcode: 2)
130719 19:26:17 [ERROR] Aborting

130719 19:26:17 [Note] mysqld: Shutdown complete

There are no any of these dirs in my system:
/var/lib/mysql/
/var/lib/mysql/
/var/lib/mysql/

How can it be? MySQL is pre-installed but dirs are absent. Should I create them manually? Or do I need to do smth else, run some program, to create them? What mode do I need to set for them?
There is some mysql_install_db program in the system. Should I run it to set up MySQL?

A: Make sure that you installed MySQL as root sudo apt-get install mysql-server. This should usually work.
To carry on from what you have here. You can create the missing directories but make sure they are owned by user\group mysql: chown -R mysql:mysql /var/lib/mysql
If you would like to change MySQL's data directory, do so in MySQL's configuration file /etc/mysql/my.cnf
Then you can chose between configuring apparmor to allow MySQL to read\execute\modify the new data directory and sub directories or, at your very own risk, you can remove apparmor. You may need to be root to do the following:
/etc/init.d/apparmor stop
/etc/init.d/apparmor teardown
update-rc.d -f apparmor remove
apt-get purge apparmor
reboot

Then you can run mysql_install_db.
But then you will have no users in the database ! To solve this:
mysqld --skip-grant-tables --skip-networking & #Start MySQL manually with no authentication checks
mysql # Access MySQL, no username\password needed
use mysql;
DELETE FROM user;
INSERT INTO `user` (`Host`, `User`, `Password`, `Select_priv`, `Insert_priv`, `Update_priv`, `Delete_priv`, `Create_priv`, `Drop_priv`, `Reload_priv`, `Shutdown_priv`, `Process_priv`, `File_priv`, `Grant_priv`, `References_priv`, `Index_priv`, `Alter_priv`, `Show_db_priv`, `Super_priv`, `Create_tmp_table_priv`, `Lock_tables_priv`, `Execute_priv`, `Repl_slave_priv`, `Repl_client_priv`, `Create_view_priv`, `Show_view_priv`, `Create_routine_priv`, `Alter_routine_priv`, `Create_user_priv`, `ssl_type`, `ssl_cipher`, `x509_issuer`, `x509_subject`, `max_questions`, `max_updates`, `max_connections`, `max_user_connections`) VALUES('localhost','root',PASSWORD('root'),'Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','','','','','0','0','0','0'); #Add root user with passowrd, root

CHOP Hosts Fetal Surgery Patient Reunion in Florida
Published on Mar 04, 2013 in CHOP News
Richard D. Wood Jr. Center for Fetal Diagnosis and Treatment
Appointments and Referrals (800-IN UTERO)
Patients and family members treated by the Center for Fetal Diagnosis and Treatment reunite with doctors and staff at the spring training home of the Philadelphia Phillies, Bright House Field in Clearwater, Florida.
March 4, 2013 — The Center for Fetal Diagnosis and Treatment at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) brought together a unique community of families from across Florida: all former CHOP patients who either underwent fetal surgery to treat conditions before birth, or needed specialized care or surgery immediately after birth. The group gathered at the spring training home of the Philadelphia Phillies, Bright House Field in Clearwater, FL.
This reunion is an offspring of CHOP's annual Fetal Family Reunion, an ongoing 17-year tradition in which more than 1,200 people from all 50 states gather in Philadelphia each June to celebrate, reconnect with their medical teams, and interact with other families who have experienced similar struggles. Nearly all of the children in attendance were prenatally diagnosed with a birth defect, such as spina bifida or congenital diaphragmatic hernia, that had potentially devastating outcomes.
"Babies with special needs require very specialized and experienced care, both before and after birth. The families gathered here today represent more than 13,000 expectant mothers from around the world to whom we've been able to offer hope and support since opening our Center in 1995," said N. Scott Adzick, MD, surgeon-In-chief at Children's Hospital and director of the Center for Fetal Diagnosis and Treatment. "It is truly inspiring to see so many children, who as babies likely could have died, now running around and growing up healthy and strong."
The Center's very first fetal surgery patient, Roberto Rodriquez, Jr., now 16 years old, throws out the first pitch of the game.
This Florida reunion was an opportunity for staff and patient families to reunite, celebrate and enjoy a fun-filled family day at a Phillies spring training game. Patients who attended the reunion ranged from several months old to the Center's very first fetal surgery patient, Roberto Rodriquez, Jr., who is now 16 and threw out the first pitch of the game.
"The high volume of patients we see from around the world with incredibly complex, rare conditions makes all the difference in achieving favorable outcomes," continued Adzick "Our experienced team are world leaders in fetal surgery, having performed nearly 1,000 fetal surgeries and treated hundreds — and, in some cases, thousands — of patients with a given diagnosis, including over 100 families from Florida alone."

Q: Sorting array of Strings in lexicographic order I am trying to modify the merge sort algorithm to sort an array of strings in lexicographic order, I am not really advanced so I may be making some newbie mistakes. This is the main and the tester and the mergesorter.
public class MergeSorter
{
    private int[] a;
    private int[] left_side;
    private int[] right_side;

    public MergeSorter(int[] anArray)
    {
        a = anArray;
    }

    public void sort()
    {
        int size = 1;

        int from = 0;
        int to = a.length - 1;

        while (size < to - from)
            {
            int offset = 0;

            while(offset < to)
                {
                    merge(from, to, offset);
                    offset = offset + (2 * size);
                }
            }
        size = 2 * size;
    }

    public void merge(int from, int mid, int to)
    {
        System.out.println("Merging " + from + "..." + mid
        + " and " + (mid + 1) + "..." + to);
    }
}

And ...
import java.util.Arrays;

public class MergeSortDemo

    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        String[] array = new String[]{"Jenny","Rob","Dereck","Mike","Dan"};

        System.out.println(Arrays.toString(array));

        MergeSorter sorter = new MergeSorter(array);
        sorter.sort();
        System.out.println(Arrays.toString(array));

Q: Multiple file upload Yii 2 I'm using mysql DB, I've got table "posts" with columns id, title, text, author_id, image at the moment.
I need to provide a possibility to upload several images to one post in my blog. What's the best way of organizing my DB structure in this case and how it's usually done in Yii 2?
At the moment I just have functionality for saving 1 image and keeping it's path in table field.
Should I keep an array in DB or create another relations table?

A: When you're working with a conventional RDBMS like MySQL:
It seems you're going from a one-to-one, to a zero- or one-to-many relation, in which case i'd recommend creating another table for your files (for example: image*), containing a foreign key image.post_id to posts.id. Added benefit is that you will be able to more neatly store some metadata about the image, instead of creating a load of extra (but perhaps unneeded columns) in the posts table.
The cleanest solution (imho) is usually to stay close to the data structure of your DMBS, instead of placing arbitrary data structures inside a text field, no matter what framework or language you use.
This is different when working with no-sql database like for example MongoDB, where depending on the use-case you may want to use an array property images on your posts document containing image objects.
*yii naming convention for tables is singular instead of plural


December 18, 2018 – As GE announces the spin-off of GE Digital into a standalone company, Factora's CEO, Barry Lynch, spoke with CRN's Dylan Martin about what he thinks the future holds for the industrial IoT business. Along with other partners, Lynch gave insight into some of the most pressing questions surrounding the new standalone company, including who should replace former CEO Bill Ruh, what the decision means for customers and partners, and how the new branch should brand itself amid competitors. "Hopefully they will position themselves as the new kid on the block" says Lynch. While the newly separated GE Digital will still remain under GE's ownership, the decision allows for more flexibility and maintains the option of selling digital assets should the company not reach its goal.

Facebook to make camera prominent on Mobile, similar to Snapchat
During a quarterly earnings meeting yesterday, Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg briefly commented on the status of the company's mobile app experience, mentioning a belief that "a text box is still the default way we share." As reported by Bloomberg, the CEO said that the next step for Facebook on smartphones is a camera-first experience that changes status updates from simple written posts to dynamic photos and videos.
As it stands, when the Facebook app is opened today users must click on "Photo" at the top of the app to begin a status update, then navigate to the Camera icon among their photos in order to take a picture or record a video. Zuckerberg's vision is one more akin to Snapchat's camera-first user interface, but on Facebook it's described as "a swipe away," hinting that it could be introduced as a new left-to-right swipe, replace the friends list currently in the menu that appears after a right-to-left swipe, or come in from the top of the screen.
The Facebook camera itself will be updated with new features as well, including new augmented reality filters — like the ones that appeared on Halloween — and "have many of the same features Snapchat has," according to AdAge. Facebook's move to put itself more in line with Snapchat has stretched into its other apps, including Instagram, and the new camera-first mindset from the social media company is said to be something it's looking to implement in Facebook Messenger (which it's already begun to do) as well as WhatsApp.
For the third quarter, Facebook reported that sales grew 56 percent to $7.01 billion, 84 percent of which was generated on mobile devices. In total, advertising sales account for more than 97 percent of the company's revenue, but CFO David Wehner mentioned that the company will begin "limiting its ad load" so as not to turn away daily users, which rose to 1.18 billion in Q3 2016.
In regards to the new camera-focused update, Zuckerberg said that "it will start to roll out broadly across the world, hopefully sooner rather than later." In a small test in Brazil and Canada, Facebook tried out a Snapchat-like experience in its iOS app over the summer, updating it in those countries with a front-facing camera that appears when users open the app and letting them add various themes and filters onto their selfies inspired by the Olympics.
