Q: Status bar hidden while playing video using MPMoviePlayer Iam playing to recorded video using MPMoviePlayer and with a customized overlay on it. Now, I am unble to show the status bar while playing the video. I think it is due to setting the control style to None for movie player.
Here is my code:
        self.moviePlayerVC = [[MPMoviePlayerViewController alloc] initWithContentURL:[NSURL fileURLWithPath:destPath_str]];
        self.moviePlayerVC.moviePlayer.controlStyle= MPMovieControlStyleEmbedded;
        self.moviePlayerVC.view.frame = self.view.bounds;
        self.moviePlayerVC.moviePlayer.controlStyle=MPMovieControlStyleNone;
        [self.moviePlayerVC.view addSubview:[self overLayOnVideoPlayerScreen]];
        [self.view addSubview:self.moviePlayerVC.view];

Give me any suggestions :)

Q: Is there a way to create a dynamically object literal value in JavaScript? In other words, let the value be a variable.
Something like this:
var a=3,b=4;
var obj = {x : a, y : b};
alert(obj.x); //will display '3'
a=2;
alert(obj.x); //want it to display '2' - how can i accomplish this?

A: Make it a method:
var a = 3,
    b = 4,
    obj = {
        x: function () {
            return a;
        },
        y: b
    };
a = 2;

And call it like:
obj.x()  // returns 2

DEMO: http://jsfiddle.net/67NwY/2/
Otherwise there's no native (and supported in older browsers) way to get the "live" value of a by using obj.x. Another answer here provides the use of Object.defineProperty that can do this.
You can apply this to obj.y as well, if you wish to do the same.

A: Here's one approach:
var a=3,b=4;
var obj = {x : function(){return a;}, y : function(){return b;}};
alert(obj.x()); // displays '3'
a=2;
alert(obj.x()); // displays '2'

A: Make it an object
var a = {
  val:3
};

var obj = {x : a};

alert(obj.x.val); //will display '3'
a.val=2;
alert(obj.x.val); //will display '2'

http://jsfiddle.net/tzfDa/2/
Property getters and setters
Adding to what Ian said, in newer versions of JS, you can use property getters and setters. Ian used the programmatic way of defining them, there's also a literal syntax (since your question title mentions "object literal"). Note that by adding a setter also, we allow setting of the value from obj.x and a;
var a = 3;
var o = {
    get x() {
        return a;
    },
    set x(value) {
        a = value;
    }
};
alert ( o.x ); // 3
a = 2;
alert( o.x ); // 2
o.x = 4;
alert(a); // 4

A: You can do this using property descriptors (as of ECMAScript version 5).
var a = 3;
var obj = {};
Object.defineProperty(obj, "x", { get : function(){ return a; } });

alert(obj.x); // 3

a = 2;

alert(obj.x); // 2

JP counselor volunteers in Kenya slums
by Rebeca Oliveira • July 6, 2012 • 0 Comments
Mark Blogier is not spending his summer break from Boston Latin relaxing. The guidance counselor and social worker is spending six weeks in the slums around Nairobi, Kenya's capital, working to improve the lives of African teenagers.
"The reality is, I don't know exactly what I'm doing until I get there," he told the Gazette in an interview last week. "I think it's going to be a real adventure. I'm looking forward to it, even though I don't know what to expect."
The Jamaica Plain resident signed up for the American Jewish World Service (AJWS) program after hearing about it on National Public Radio (NPR). Following the Jewish tenet of tikkun olam—"repairing the world"—he signed up to spend his summer in Africa, helping to develop workshops and protocols for helping troubled teenage girls.
"How do you repair the world when you're leading your life and working? This is an opportunity to do that," Blogier said. "I'm fortunate in that I do have the time instead of just laying out on a beach somewhere. I think this will be a lot more meaningful."
Though AJWS programs usually require a three-month commitment, Blogier was able to negotiate a six-week trip.
"They were very flexible because of my school vacation," he explained. "Some people do a year, but [AJWS] also has different programs for shorter periods."
Blogier is spending a week in training in neighboring Uganda before heading to Kenya next week. His work in Nairobi will likely focus on self-empowerment, sexual health and HIV awareness.
"I suspect I'll learn a whole lot," Blogier said. "I'll probably learn more than I have to offer."
AJWS focuses on human rights and poverty in the developing world, economic justice, natural resource rights and women's rights, among other initiatives, Blogier said.
"They focus on helping oppressed people no matter their racial or ethnic status," he added. "I think this organization is pretty amazing."
Blogier will be blogging about his summer at volunteeringinkenya.wordpress.com.

Beverly Lynds Dark Nebula 183 lies a mere 325 light-years away, drifting high above the plane of our Milky Way Galaxy. Obscuring the starlight behind it when viewed at optical wavelengths, the dark, dusty molecular cloud itself seems starless. But far infrared explorations reveal dense clumps within, likely stars in the early stages of formation as enhanced regions of the cloud undergo gravitational collapse. One of the closest molecular clouds, it is seen toward the constellation Serpens Caput. This sharp cosmic cloud portrait spans about half a degree on the sky. That's about 3 light-years at the estimated distance of Lynds Dark Nebula 183.

View Full Version : sound problems/fixes?
I have the 1946 4.08 version. It ran beautifully for 1 year. Now the sound is rough. Voices tend to echo or repeat a small amount. I've tried adjustments to both the sound and set-up menus. Nothing improves it, but is is possible to make it worse.
-Sound went away on the computer 3 times. IYogi got it going again.
-The sound symton began on the 3rd fix.
-We uninstalledn and reinstalled the original sound blaster cd.
-Then uninstalled and reinstalled the 1946 and 4.08.
-Also, we updated the sound blaster with the latest patch.
- when using direct x...the sound card does not show a version.
-all other music on the computer works fine.

Gallagher will open a new campaign at Ruakaka on Saturday with the hope of a return to black type competition in the new season.
The youngster showed promise in his first three runs before a break and he is forward to resume in the Almanzor at Cambridge Stud 1000m.
"Like everyone else in the country we're looking at the Guineas races," trainer Jacob McKay said.
Gallagher finished runner-up on debut and was then an unlucky fifth in the Gr.3 Phoenix Park 2YO Classic (1200m).
"He was pretty stiff at New Plymouth, he got held up a couple of times before the turn," McKay said.
Gallagher was turned out after the son of Epaulette and an Encosta de Lago mare ran sixth in the Gr.3 Reid & Harrison Slipper (1200m) in February.
"To be fair, he was a late foal and when I bought him at Karaka to syndicate he was a bit backward," McKay said.
To be ridden at Ruakaka by McKay's brother Shaun, Gallagher has drawn wide but that hasn't dampened any enthusiasm.
"It's probably not the worst from the start there," McKay said. "There's a bit of a dog leg and if he jumps nicely he should be able to get on the pace.
"He's showed a bit of gate speed and in a fresh state he should be able to bounce out and put himself in the race." – NZ Racing Desk.

Additional features of the description of C. glacialis can be found here.
C. glacialis differs from C. hochbergi in having a smooth rather than a rugose shell, a thick rather than a thin mantle septum, a peculiar pattern of pigmentation on the oral face of the arms and web and a caecum that is much larger than the stomach. Unfortunately, differences in fixation and physiological state could account for some or all of these apparent species characteristics.

20.11.2019 - EEF review on FEI General Assembly 2019
EEF review on FEI General Assembly 2019
Moscow (RUS)
The FEI General Assembly 2019 in Moscow was well attended with 91 present member federations and 29 proxies.
The attention brought to this year's FEI General Assembly not only by the equestrian community but the broad public was very much focused on the awaited actions responding to the experienced deficits within the discipline Endurance and the future of Reining as an FEI discipline, besides the general rules revision.
Firstly, as for Endurance, the approval by a vast majority of the Endurance rules (with approved amendments) for 2020 at the ordinary General Assembly by the international delegates can be judged as a strong signal and big step forward regarding the protection of the welfare of the horse and the strengthening of clean and fair sport.
In preparation of the FEI General Assembly the European endurance working group, chaired by Quentin Simonet (FRA), had been in close exchange with the Temporary Endurance Committee, chaired by Dr. Sarah Coombs (GBR), and giving important contributions to European opinion making and elaboration of a European standpoint. The EEF proposals submitted were the result of months' work and deliberation in 2019 between all EEF NFs, stakeholders and experts, they were thoroughly presented and debated during the GA Group sessions and were approved at the GA by clear majority, consisting of EEF and non-EEF NFs, a sign of broad acceptance in the equestrian community.
The rules which have been approved on, have set new limits to minimum weight of the athletes for CEI2* events and Junior and Young Rider events, since it was agreed that no or a too low minimum weight requirement would open a potentially dangerous room of manoeuvre for maximizing speed by minimizing weight. Moreover, general consensus among the European national federations could be found regarding the qualification requirements from cEI1* to Championships. Considerations and efforts in that context have been to keep the discipline sufficiently universal and therefore accessible for more than just the very top performing national federations of the discipline but nevertheless suitable for the different sports performing levels.
When it came to express an opinion about the moment of implementation of the new rules, the European federations have largely agreed on being in favor of a partial implementation of the rules by earliest possible moment, i.e. by January 1st of 2020 and a postponement of some specific rules which the ETC and the FEI board had been mandated to identify where some further administrative and technical clarifications and developments will have to be undertaken and realized to 1st of July 2020.
The EEF has nevertheless pointed out to the fact that in addition to the rules themselves, the integrity of all the stakeholders involved is of paramount importance when it comes to the enforcement of the set rules and the guide lining control policy regarding the FEI anti-doping rules.
Secondly, the EEF has unanimously agreed on supporting the remaining of Reining as a FEI discipline. It was Secretary General, Sabrina Ibañez, who brought a positive message already at the occasion of the regional meetings beforehand the votings reporting that the dialogue between FEI and NRHA has been reactivated and a general agreement had been found. Sven Friesecke (SUI), chair of the FEI Reining committee, had underlined that the European federations represent two thirds of the actively practicing countries and that the European positioning in that matter was of high importance. The voting at the ordinary General Assembly then confirmed Reining as a FEI discipline.
Thirdly, the FEI's proposal to revise Articles 103 and 108 gave cause for serious concern during the months prior to the General Assembly. The proposal had foreseen to accord the FEI the authority of allocation of the "O-Status" – being the basic condition for hosting the team competition Nations Cup – of CIOs at top level instead of the National Federations. At the regional meeting, FEI President, Ingmar de Vos, had explained the FEI's motivation to propose such a change with its ambition of promoting and strengthening the Nations Cup, as FEI Series. The European federations have opposed to this proposal in unanimous manner, since they felt their sovereignty endangered. In consequence the proposal had been withdrawn from the General Assembly's voting items by the FEI.
As for the Longines EEF Series, the respective rules had been approved by the delegates along with the revision of the FEI Jumping Rules. This step marks a new beginning for Nations Cup competitions in Europe with the launch of the Longines EEF Series in 2020. The idea to replace the former Europe Division II with a format focusing on the development of sports, along with organizers and officials across the European territory was first proposed by the EEF Working Group Jumping, chaired by George Dimaras (GRE), in the beginning of 2019. With the guidance of the EEF Board and the EEF Series WG, the valuable co-operation of the FEI and the support of Longines, it is now becoming reality.
Lastly, when it came to elections and appointments, the European Equestrian Federation had acknowledged with satisfaction a good representation of European candidates on the different technical and standing committees of the FEI, reflecting the strong competencies and knowledge present in the European territory and responding to the efforts of regional diversity of the FEI's staff and volunteers.

Village Dancer
Ahmad Tohari, Rene T. A. Lysloff
Manoa 12.1 (2000) 13-23
Ahmad Tohari
February 1966: a small town in a remote corner of Central Java. The period of oppressive darkness had lasted for more than half a year. Except for security personnel, people did not leave their homes after dark. At night the air was filled with the sound of gunfire, military transport vehicles, the pounding of boots, and the howling of feral dogs whose noses tingled with the smell of blood and rotting flesh. Corpses drifted lazily down the rivers and streams. Hundreds more were buried in shallow mass graves or lay in open fields.
Late one night, only a single house was still lit, glowing faintly. Fixed in ghostly silence, the windows and doors of the house were bolted shut with heavy metal bars. In the front yard was a guardhouse, where soldiers wearing red scarves and armed with rifles and machine guns stood on alert.
The one-room house had been transformed into an emergency detention center for nearly two hundred people, many of them women. Because of the confined space, the prisoners were forced to stand, packed together like bundled kindling. The air stank of dirt and body odor. The floor was wet and slimy with urine and fecal matter. The walls dripped with moisture, the condensation of sweat and humidity. Few signs of communication passed among the two hundred prisoners, save for occasional soft whispers and the momentary exchange of glances. But somewhere in the crowd, a woman could be heard sobbing softly. She had momentarily dozed off, and her dreaming had taken her away from the night's cruelty and returned her to the day before, when she had been at home with her husband and children. The dream had lasted only a moment, and then she found herself awake again, pressed against other prisoners in a foul-smelling room.
A soldier, peering at her through a barred window, averted his eyes. Private Rasus could no longer bear to watch the prisoners. He turned and walked toward the guardhouse, but without the jaunty strut of a soldier wearing a uniform and carrying a loaded rifle. In the shadow of the guardhouse where he stopped to think, he suddenly heard the sound of an approaching vehicle.
The roar of the truck's engine shattered the evening silence. When it stopped in front of the guardhouse, two young men in black uniforms and two paramilitary officials got out of it. After reporting to the guardhouse, [End Page 13] they proceeded towards the detention center. The iron bar securing the front door was lifted, and the door swung open. Prisoners who had been crushed against the door by other prisoners were forced outside, but just as quickly shoved back by the paramilitary officials. All the prisoners were roused by the noise. Jostling one another, they stood on tiptoes to see what was happening, some briefly entertaining the hope that they might be permitted to leave the unbearably hot and claustrophobic room.
The prisoners listened carefully as one of the paramilitary officials called out names. Some of those whose names were called, feeling that their moment of freedom had arrived, responded with a clear shout. Others swallowed their dread before answering in faltering and choked voices. Seven prisoners were called: all men who wearily made their way toward the door.
When the seven were outside, the officers attempted to close the door. But at the last moment, a female prisoner broke through the crowd and slipped outside. She pleaded with the officer, "I want to come along, sir. If they're leaving, why can't I go, too? Please, sir, I don't even know why I'm being held here."
"I'm just following orders. You're not allowed to come along. Maybe another time. Go on, get back inside!"
For a moment the woman stood transfixed, then fell to the ground at the feet of the officer. He and the other men were even more startled when she jumped up and ran to the back of the truck.
"Very well," the man relented...

Board Awards $103m in Prop 47 Funds to Innovative Rehabilitative Programs
SACRAMENTO (June 8, 2017) – Grant awards from a voter initiative that reduces from felonies to misdemeanors certain low-level crimes and directs state savings to rehabilitative programs received approval today from the Board of State and Community Corrections.
Approximately $103 million in estimated state savings resulting from the enactment of Proposition 47 will go to 23 applicants whose rehabilitative programs were deemed most promising by a workgroup of the Board.
The criteria for the awards was established by language in the proposition, which directs 65 percent of the overall state savings to the BSCC to fund grants for mental health and substance-use disorder treatment. Assembly Bill 1056 added housing assistance and job training to the mix of eligible funding criteria. The bill targets for services people "who have been arrested, charged with, or convicted of a criminal offense and have a history of mental health issues or substance use disorders."
Programs awarded funding include: $5.9 million to the Contra Costa County Health Services Department to divert low-level, non-violent people with behavioral health issues to treatment instead of jail; $6 million to San Diego County to expand a misdemeanant diversion program and rehabilitative services, which will be provided by community-based organizations; $1 million to the Tehama County Restore Program to connect youth who need mental health and substance-use treatment with coordinated care that includes housing and employment services; and $6 million to the Orange County Health Care Agency to expand jail in-reach and reentry planning to include outside support and resource services, counseling and housing.
The grant awards followed a lengthy and complex process. The time between the November 2014 election and the awarding of the grants allowed the state Department of Finance to estimate State court and incarceration savings for the three-year grant cycle. It also allowed BSCC staff time to consider input from a broad range of stakeholders and other interested parties with ideas about the types of rehabilitative programming and support services that should be funded. Staff particularly sought out strategies that formerly incarcerated people and their families said had been critical to recovery.
"We know this money will make a difference," said Board Chair Linda Penner, "and we are optimistic and believe in a positive outcome."
As part of the effort to recruit members for the workgroup, called an Executive Steering Committee (ESC), the BSCC sought statements of interest from individuals reflective of California's diverse population, including people who were formerly incarcerated and system-involved. Board members Leticia Perez and Scott Budnick co-chaired the committee, and 16 other members with diverse personal and professional experience also served.
The ESC followed the requirements of the initiative and legislation to guide creation of the Request for Proposals. The committee also established "guiding principles" that successful projects needed to have met, including showing that applicants would implement trauma- informed practices, encourage community engagement, collaborate with other agencies and find ways to target underserved populations.
Projects were rated individually by committee members, who determined how well each met the established criteria. Members reconvened May 30 to discuss and, in some instances, adjust their scores before making final recommendations to the Board. Successful projects had to earn at least 65 percent of available scoring points to be considered for funding.
Prop 47 mandated that public agencies be the lead applicant on the project, and the ESC agreed that at least half of the funding must be passed through to community-based organizations. Agencies that proposed to pass through more than 60 percent of the funding earned additional points on their applications. Agencies could apply for large awards of up to $6 million, or small awards of up to $1 million. The County of Los Angeles was allowed to apply for up to $20 million.
The grant cycle begins June 16, 2017 and ends Aug. 15, 2020. The funding stream is ongoing, and the BSCC anticipates releasing a new RFP in early 2019.
The BSCC, established in 2012, is a multi-faceted organization that provides assistance to the counties on community corrections issues. The agency annually administers and awards millions of dollars in grants designed to reduce recidivism and address juvenile justice and delinquency prevention, sets standards for the training of local corrections officers and the operations of local corrections facilities, promulgates regulations and inspects local detention facilities, and administers the current lease-revenue bond process for local jail improvements.

San Francisco Department of Public Health
Project Title: Promoting Recovery and Services for the Prevention of Recidivism (PRSPR)
Summary: The San Francisco Department of Public Health proposes to interrupt the cycle of substance abuse, unaddressed mental health issues, homelessness, and incarceration by increasing the availability of residential substance use disorder (SUD) treatment for criminal justice system-involved adults who may also have co-occurring mental health (MH) issues.

Over the three year grant period, the project will serve 192 potentially duplicated participants. All participants, under the guidance of case managers or Peer Navigators, will have access to the city's system of care including behavioral health services (SUD and MH treatment), physical health services, employment, and the newly formed Department of Homelessness and Supportive Housing, which coordinates all of the city's housing resources (bridge housing, support hotels, sober living environments, coops) through one agency.
San Joaquin County Behavioral Health Services (BHS)
Project Title: Homeward Bound
Summary: Homeward Bound is a comprehensive initiative to restore non-serious, non-violent offenders back into the community and reduce recidivism. The initiative will address critical system gaps that contribute to: a revolving door, whereby individuals released from jail are soon re-arrested for similar offenses; and hopelessness, whereby those seeking support are "not eligible" for services intended for higher-acuity/risk populations. Specifically, Homeward Bound will create a Behavioral Health Assessment, Respite and Treatment Center offering MAT (medication assisted treatment), medically-monitored withdrawal management services, and primary health care services – along with case management and housing support services for individuals enrolled in program activities. BHS anticipates that as many as 1,000 individuals will be served annually through the WPC (Whole Person Care) homeless outreach and engagement components; coordination with law enforcement to deflect public inebriates away from the jail and into program services; and partnership agreements with local community-based organizations to help direct clients to assessments and evidence-based treatment services.
Solano County Health & Social Services
Project Title: Prop 47: Expanding Service Continuum for Drug Treatment and Continued Supports for Improved Outcomes
Summary: This project is intended to deepen the capacity to provide residential drug treatment and the many services necessary throughout the continuum of recovery in order to sustain treatment achievements. A lack of residential treatment beds in Solano County makes it difficult for someone engaged in treatment to also transition seamlessly to their community, support system, or even a job opportunity. Creating in-County resources will improve the ability for our residents to sustain the gains they make when they are in residential treatment. For others who do not need or will not accept residential treatment, it is critical that they are in a safe and supportive living environment while engaged in outpatient services; for this reason the project also emphasizes transitional housing and sober living environments. This continuum of service and housing will be supported by a robust case management program that will assist the clients transitioning through the service continuum and help to address barriers toward their success. In addition, an attorney will be dedicated to the program to assist with legal advocacy.
Yolo County Health & Human Services Agency
Project Title: Steps to Success
Summary: This project proposes to use Proposition 47 grant funds to expand Yolo County's existing continuum of criminal justice diversion programs. Specifically, the proposed project will apply the principles of restorative justice and trauma-informed care to provide wraparound services to individuals who are eligible for a diversion program, but are unlikely to succeed without intensive supports due to their history of mental health issues and/or substance use disorders. In an effort to address the gaps in its current criminal justice continuum, HHSA's Steps to Success project will use the following five-step process to provide participants with a range of diversion as well as mental health, substance use disorder, and supportive service assistance: Step 1-Outreach and Assessment; Step 2-Diversion Program; Step 3-Intensive Case Management and Treatment; Step 4-Civil Legal Services; and Step 5-Permanent Housing Assistance.

Sam Smith – Too good at goodbyes (new video)
Sam Smith released the single "Too good at goodbyes" to mark his return to music.
The gospel-tinged ballad was co-written with Jimmy Napes, who collaborated with Smith on half a dozen of the "In the lonely hour" album, and Stargate (Rihanna, Coldplay, Sia).
"This song is about a relationship I was in and it's basically about getting good at getting dumped" Sam explains. "I'm still very, very single. I think I'm even more single than I was when I released 'In the Lonely Hour', so I'm insanely single. People are going to see, this one as I've said is about me and something that I've gone through".
Directed by Luke Monaghan, the clip shows different couples captured in intimate moments.
The London-based musician's new album will be out next months, before Christmas. He also teased that the LP will include collaboration with Timbaland and a special duet.
His last album "In the lonely hour"
Smith's last full album "In the Lonely Hour" went seven-times platinum in the UK and double-platinum in the US. It also spawned a string of hits including the number ones "Money on my mind", "Stay with me" and "Lay me down".
You must think that I'm stupid
You must think that I'm a fool
You must think that I'm new to this
But I have seen this all before
I'm never gonna let you close to me
Even though you mean the most to me
'Cause every time I open up, it hurts
So I'm never gonna get too close to you
Even when I mean the most to you
In case you go and leave me in the dirt
And every time you hurt me, the less that I cry
And every time you leave me, the quicker these tears dry
And every time you walk out, the less I love you
Baby, we don't stand a chance, it's sad but it's true
I'm way too good at goodbyes
(I'm way too good at goodbyes)
I know you're thinkin' I'm heartless
I know you're thinkin' I'm cold
I'm just protectin' my innocence
I'm just protectin' my soul
I'm way to good at goodbyes
(I'm way to good at goodbyes)
No way that you'll see me cry
(No way that you'll see me cry)
No, no, no, no
No, no, no
Ahhh~

What makes a comic without any characters.
September 15, 2015 April 4, 2016 Mark Abstract Comics
Comics have characters, places and things, a plot with events no matter how surreal. From Batman to the latest hipster wildness, characters take action in a world. Comics telling those stories is the same practice that Homer engaged in around a fire, the creation of empathy, narrative suspense, and fascination. If you remove the characters, the empathy, the narrative drive traditionalists think there is nothing there. But it's a rich nothing that has paper, ink, paint, a cartoonist, a reader, pages, things that make a book. Can that basic of a book exist outside of narrative traditions?
Alan Haverholm's "When the Last Story is told", is a 61 page graphic novel. It has no words, a six-panel grid and pages that look like late minimalism, others pages look like action painting, still more are paper and or photo collages.
You can't consume this like a traditional comic, with no words you can't even read it. As you you turn pages you have to ask yourself why? In a book, 61 collages become one object. As one object each panel now has a relationship with all the other panels. The first page with juicy thick white paint built over collaged paper declares itself as "Art" these days. A textural stamped black smudge runs out underneath panel 2 and leads the eye to turn the page.
The first spread is built on two sheets of torn drawing paper, 1 brown, 1 grey, with the six panel grid drawn on top of them. Both pages have a base of collage with paint brushed across the whole panel mostly covering up the collage but letting layers of it peak through. With the first spread he actually explores the color palette of the book, white black light grey and brown drawing papers a royal dark blue and a burnt orange. The dark rich colors are in one whole panel, the royal blue looks back to Ad Reinhardt's blue square painting.
The next spread uses white paint even more so to cover the collage in all three and we get one panels of gestural blobs in black hearkening back to abstract expressionism and the fifth is an orange circle in a black line covered in scraped white. With the smeared gestures it's hard not to think of zen calligraphy and the drawing of the circles.
There's a spread of splatter panels intercut with panels that are collages of photos. The photos seem to be texture, interiors, the incidentals a camera catches when it's pointed at a subject or the carpet taken when it's left on and pointed downwards. The photo panels build to a full page splash that an interior, possibly a work space which the six panel grid is drawn but then a lighter burnt orange corner holds a shot of clouds that overlaps the bottom four panels. Making the panel lines feel like a crucifix.
Another small chunk of light green paper sits over the bottom right corner, saying it's time to turn the page. Which reveals a spread of stark black and white spread. The right pages second panels has a bar of orange peeping out over a scrim of paper. The first page is a checkerboard of dark and light texture, stamped, gestural and sprayed.
By placing all of these painting into a book, giving us a rigorous grid to deal with, Haverholm makes you wake up and look at a comic. Almost all comics tell you how to feel, you are locked by the narrative into not thinking you just consume the story line. The drawing is meaningless. Drawing is just a representation of a character. Line, form, color, the handling of paint is just decoration on the characters. Even in the most painted of comics it's just a mess of artifice and Photoshop to say look how cool I am. But in this all we have to understand why this book is the artist making choices. And I as the reader am left to invent my own stories about what has happened, why the artist did this. What does the orange mean exactly? That dark royal blue that makes me think of Ad Reinhardt, a 20th century painter who pursued a minimal art that became all black paintings of six squares barely perceptible visual meditations. Does the artist even know Reinhardt's work? Or are his six panels range across the techniques of modernism, collage gestural abstraction and minimalism.
Reading fiction develops your empathy as you meet new people. Most comics are trapped in this pattern, the reader is never asked to engage beyond the level of a college academic. "When the Last story is told" demands you awake and become alive to another's existence. You have to walk in his shoes and experience the making of the drawings as they are recorded to the page. The reader has to look and engage with another real human being who has made this work. As in life, there are no heroes, there's just another day, filled with trauma, joy, death and life. You can't be entertained by empathy, by the hero overcoming their obstacles. I have to make the meaning out of the book. I have to wake up, think and be alive in the moment.
Waking up it's what we should all do, that's what this book asks of you.

Teaching Comics to Myself: Fundamentals


During this service, we texted prayers for Christian Aid Week. See prayers from around the UK and Ireland here.
Most of us here are probably familiar with the story of Jesus feeding the five thousand. But we are probably less familiar with the story of Elijah and the widow of Zarephath. The two stories are somewhat similar: a tale of hunger, of thinking that nothing can be done, and God providing.
The story about Elijah comes as part of a longer story about Elijah's conflict with King Ahab of Israel. It is said of Ahab that 'he sinned against the Lord more than any of his predecessors' (1 King 16.29). He was married to Jezebel, the daughter of the King of Sidon, who encouraged him to worship the old gods of the land, instead of the Lord God of Elijah. The Prophet Elijah has decreed a drought, as the punishment of the God of Israel on the King. When there is no other water in Israel, God instructs Elijah to go to a place where one stream continues to flow from which he can drink; and ravens bring the prophet food. But eventually, even that brook runs dry.
So now God sends the prophet to Zarephath, near Sidon- the very region where the wicked Queen Jezebel, with her foreign gods, comes from. And it will be one of these foreigners, someone who worships the gods Elijah condemns, who, ironically, will be the one who helps him. She's the first person Elijah sees at the city gate- a widow gathering firewood. The prophet asks her for a drink of water, and she willingly goes off to get it (for so often, the poorest are those who are the most generous and willing to help, even if the person in need is a foreigner). As the widow goes off to get the water, Elijah calls after her: 'And please bring me some bread, too'. This stops the widow in her tracks. She swears by Elijah's God that she can't. She only has a handful of bread and drop of olive oil- all that's left for her and her son. 'That will be our last meal, and then we will starve to death', she says.
The problem of hunger is still with us today. It never seems to go away. Decades ago, George Macleod said, "The great community problem of our modern world is how to share bread' (quote from Christian Aid material). It seems to be very difficult for us to find a way in which everyone in the world gets enough to eat. In this country, we ought to have enough to eat. Yet many people are surviving only because of food banks. And people on low incomes often suffer from bad health because they cannot afford to eat a healthy diet. Other people suffer because they have too much to eat. We are all of us guilty of throwing away food. And meantime, millions around the world just about survive- and often starve.
It's easy for preachers like me to say that this is wrong. It's easy to say, 'its because of sin and evil that people go hungry'. It's harder to fix the problems. In these Bible stories, the fixes seem so easy. '"Don't worry," Elijah said to the widow. "Go on and prepare your meal. But first make a small loaf from what you have and bring it to me, and then prepare the rest for you and your son. For this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: 'The bowl will not run out of flour or the jar run out of oil before the day that I, the Lord, send rain.'" The widow went and did as Elijah had told her, and all of them had enough food for many days. As the Lord had promised through Elijah, the bowl did not run out of flour nor did the jar run out of oil'. That sounds to us like fairy story or a folk tale. We know that world is not that simple! It's the same with story of the feeding of the 5,000. Somehow, miraculously, a huge crowd is fed- and twelve baskets are left over! Unbelievable?
Yes, these are unbelievable stories, in many ways. But read them more closely, and we have some clues to what these tales are trying to tell us. Go back, for example, to the widow's astonishment when Elijah asks her to give him some bread. Asking a starving widow to make you bread, when she has only enough to feed her and her son one last time before they inevitably starve to death, seems cruel and heartless. No wonder she complains that it can't be done.
The same kind of incredulity occurs in the Gospel story. Jesus says he's going to feed the crowd. Every church needs a treasurer who will point out what our ambitious plans will cost. Philip does that for Jesus- he does the sums and says, ' For everyone to have even a little, it would take more than two hundred silver coins to buy enough bread'. A silver coin was what a rural worker would earn in a day (GNB note to 6.7)- it's going to cost an astonishing amount to feed all these people, says Philip.
Both Philip and the widow of Zarephath are indignant about the suggestion that God will provide. They cannot see how it can be done. But in both stories, it is done- people are fed in impossible circumstances. Yes, there is an element of the miraculous in these stories. But there purpose is to tell us that it's not God's will that anyone should go hungry; God wants everyone to be fed. And sometimes, even in impossible circumstances, it can be done.
For in both these stories, before God does a miracle, humans have to do something. Elijah tells the widow that if she makes the loaf for him, she will never go hungry: 'The bowl will not run out of flour or the jar run out of oil'. Perhaps even more remarkable than Elijah saying that is what happens next. It seems as if the widow recognises that when Elijah speaks, it is the word of God, for, amazingly, she obeys him: 'The widow went and did as Elijah had told her'. She believes that when this prophet of a foreign God says she will not run out of food, he speaks the truth. I don't know how he said it to her, but she is convinced. She makes the loaf for Elijah, and yet there is enough: 'the bowl did not run out of flour nor did the jar run out of oil'.
Of course this is a miracle story. Of course there is only enough food because of divine intervention. But the miracle does not happen, cannot happen, until the widow makes the bread. She uses up what she believes- knows- is the last of her ingredients, in order to make the loaf for the prophet. And only after she's used the last of what she had does she realise God's promise has come true, as she finds that the bowl of flour does not go empty and the olive oil does not run out. Before God's miracle could happen, the widow had to make the bread.
The same sort of thing happens in the Gospel story. Philip has laid bare how impossible it is to feed the people- it would cost a fortune, and that is simply not available. But Andrew, brother of Simon Peter, brings to Jesus the young boy with his famous: 'five loaves of barely and two fish'. I don't know why Andrew thinks this is worth bringing this boy and his packed lunch to Jesus' attention. Perhaps it's Andrew's best attempt. He's been looking around to see what is available. And when he finds something- anything- he takes at least that to Jesus- 'Look Jesus, this is all I can find!' And Andrew is terribly realistic about what he's been able to do: 'But they will certainly not be enough for all these people', he admits.
Yet Jesus take the loaves and the fishes, and somehow everyone is fed. That is pure miracle. It is something only the power of God could do. But it would not have happened had not Andrew, hesitantly, brought the boy and his fishes to Jesus' attention. I think Andrew shows an interesting kind of faith in this story- a hesitant, unsure faith. He cannot find much- a few loaves and fishes. He admits it is not enough. But something makes him bring it to Jesus anyway. He's like an unconfident, hesitant child, who paints a picture which isn't any good, but who gives it as a birthday present to mum anyway. 'It's not that good, but it's the best I could do, and I hope you like it'. No decent parent would reject such a gift. Christ certainly doesn't reject the gift. Christ takes it, little as it is, unsatisfactory as it is, and performs a miracle with it.
Thank goodness God is like that. God's miracles don't come from nowhere. The depend on people having faith- even if it's a hesitant, uncertain faith. And thank goodness God can take the little you and I can offer, the not very good, and work miracles with it. Going by these takes, we're not to sit around waiting for miracles. We're not to say, 'we don't have enough, and what we want isn't good enough'. God will decide if it's enough, or good enough. But miracles don't happen unless people get involved.
Technology means that we humans can often do what would once seem miraculous. But often we don't do that. Given a mobile phone, many people will fritter away time sending gossipy texts or sending pictures of cats to one another. But for Justin Ireri, mobile phone technology as the potential to change his life. Being able to get those accurate local weather forecasts means that he can feed his family- something which seemed very doubtful before. In a way, that is as much a miracle as the widow's flour and olive oil, or the wee boy's packed lunch of loaves and fishes. Technology can be used for good or evil. But when we offer our best efforts to God, miracles can happen.


Santiago, Chile (AP) - A five-acre glacial lake in Chile's southern Andes has disappeared - and scientists want to know why.
Park rangers at Bernardo O'Higgins National Park said they found a 100-feet-deep crater in late May where the lake had been in March. Several large pieces of ice that used to float atop the water also were spotted.
"The lake had simply disappeared," head of Chile's National Forest Service in the southernmost region of Magallanes, said Wednesday. "No one knows what happened."
One theory is the water disappeared through cracks in the lake bottom into underground fissures. But experts do not know why the cracks would have appeared because there have been no earthquakes reported in the area recently.
Here's something else. March 6, 2007.
GUATEMALA CITY , Guatemala - killed at least two teenagers as it swallowed about a dozen homes early Friday and forced the evacuation of nearly 1,000 people in a crowded Guatemala City neighborhood. Officials blamed the sinkhole on recent rains and an underground sewage flow from a ruptured main. The pit emitted foul odors, loud noises and tremors, shaking the surrounding ground. A rush of water could be heard from its depths, and authorities feared it could widen or others could open up. Rescue operations were on hold until a firefighter, suspended from a cable, could take video and photos above the hole and officials could use the documentation to decide how to proceed. The dead were identified as Irma and David Soyos, emergency spokesman Juan Carlos Bolanos said. Their bodies were found near the sinkhole, floating in a river of sewage. Their father, Domingo, was still missing, according to disaster coordinator Hugo Hernandez.

Advocates decry proposed delay in funding for BQE repairs
By Maya Rajamani New York City
PUBLISHED 2:30 PM ET May. 13, 2022 PUBLISHED 2:30 PM EDT May. 13, 2022
Mayor Eric Adams' proposed budget would postpone millions of dollars in funding for repairs to the crumbling Brooklyn-Queens Expressway — a move advocates and a Brooklyn city councilman say will lead to dangerous conditions.
Adams' current Executive Plan would shift $180.5 million in funding for repairs to the BQE out of the Fiscal 2023 budget, cutting immediate funding from $225.1 million to $44.6 million, a City Council briefing paper obtained by amNewYork shows.

Advocates and a Brooklyn city councilman say postponing funding for repairs will lead to dangerous conditions
A report released by an expert panel in January 2020 found that the expressway was "suffering from significant deterioration" and would need "significant repairs and replacements" by 2026.
And while the city would still provide a total of $1.5 billion in funding for repairs between the 2022 fiscal year and the 2031 fiscal year, according to the briefing paper, the proposal has drawn backlash.
During a City Council budget hearing on Thursday, Brooklyn City Councilman Lincoln Restler said Adams' proposal was "of grave concern," adding that the city's Department of Transportation appeared to be approaching the project with a "lack of urgency."
"And I am very upset about it, and frankly, in my communications with DOT, I've been underwhelmed by the response I've gotten from the agency," he said, before noting that he was "hearing every day from constituents who are freaked out."
Former Mayor Bill de Blasio in August unveiled a multi-pronged plan aimed at extending the life of the BQE by 20 years.
The Brooklyn Heights Association released a statement on Friday saying there was "no possible justification to delay any of the emergency repairs DOT promised to undertake last August."
"The idea that the city isn't doing everything in its power to prevent a predictable catastrophe is reckless and unconscionable," the association said in its statement. "We are almost halfway through 2022, and neighbors all along the Cantilever are reporting increased levels of rumblings, vibrations, and just a few weeks ago photos of falling debris from the underside of the structure were sent to DOT."
"Anyone who questions the disastrous impact of salt and water corrosion on concrete and rebar need only look to the Surfside [collapse] in Florida," the association added.
Responding to Restler's remarks at Thursday's hearing, DOT Commissioner Ydanis Rodriguez said there was "no issue related to safety here at DOT… when it comes to, you know, how we move money."
"None of this decision to move any money puts anything at risk," he said.
The DOT is "keeping a close eye on the BQE," Elisabeth Franklin, the agency's associate commissioner for budget and capital program management, added.
"We have left the funding in the inner years to do the contracts that we know we have to do now," Franklin said. "And so the funding in the outer years can be moved back in as our monitoring continues, as we find work we need to do earlier."
City Hall did not immediately respond to request for comment Friday.
