Parliament gives conditional support for Palestinian statehood
MEPs give their overwhelming backing to resolution that supports drive for Palestinian statehood "hand in hand" with a reinvigorated peace process.
By Andrew Gardner
December 17, 2014 4:47 pm CET
The European Parliament yesterday (17 December) said that it supported "in principle" that Palestine should be recognised as a state, with the major political groups, including the conservative European People's Party (EPP), backing the resolution.
The resolution passed with 498 votes for and 88 votes against, with 111 MEPs abstaining.
The vote had been delayed by a month at the suggestion of the EPP, with the intervening month being used to find weaker wording that would allow the five political groups involved in the drafting to find a compromise.
Nonetheless, large fractures emerged within groups and even within national parties. The liberal grouping, ALDE, was split three ways, with a majority, 39, voting for the motion, five rejecting it and 24 abstaining. The European Conservatives and Reformists – and, in particular, the British Conservatives – were spread in all camps, with seven backing the resolution, 36 opposing it and 21 abstaining.

The final wording states that the European Parliament "supports in principle recognition of Palestinian statehood and the two-state solution, and believes these should go hand in hand with the development of peace talks, which should be advanced".
The EPP immediately sought to highlight the caveats in its support for the resolution, issuing a press statement entitled: "European Parliament rejects unconditional recognition of Palestine".
Its spokesman on foreign affairs, Elmar Brok, a German who heads the Parliament's foreign-affairs committee, emphasised that support for Palestinian statehood was conditional on progress in peace talks. He also highlighted the Parliament's call for all Palestinian factions to recognise the state of Israel, and the EPP's condemnation for Israel's continued construction of settlements on territory held by the Palestinians prior to the war of 1967.
The vote does not bind the EU, but is part of a broader trend within Europe towards recognising Palestine as a state. The EU has long called for a two-state solution to the nearly 70-year dispute between Israelis and Palestinians, but its western member states had shied away from formally recognising Palestine as a state until Sweden broke ranks in October. Israel responded by recalling its ambassador from Stockholm. Parliamentarians in France, the UK, Spain, Portugal and Ireland have since also passed resolutions called for recognition of Palestine as a state.
The EU's member states have also raised pressure on Israel in recent years, with only one member state – the Czech Republic – voting in 2012 against granting Palestine the status of a "non-member observer state" of the UN.
The more assertive stance being adopted by European politicians comes at a point when efforts by the United States to broker a resumption of peace talks have floundered and shortly after Israel's coalition government introduced a bill that would describe Israel as "the nation-state of the Jewish people", reinforce use of the Hebrew calendar, and strengthen a law granting every Jew automatic right to citizenship.
The Israeli government has since collapsed, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu calling early elections for 17 March.

Q: I want to create jenkins credentials via ansible I am putting together a developer machine using ansible. In that machine i am installing jenkins.
I have created the jobs for jenkins with ansible:
- shell: "java -jar {{ jenkins.cli_jar }} -s {{ jenkins.server }} create-job \
      {{ item.name }} < {{ jenkins.jobs_dir }}/{{ item.xml_file }}"
  with_items: "jenkins.jobs"

And installed the plugins, via cli etc.
But now i am missing the ssh credentials for the jobs; i just want a ssh credential with user "jenkins" and that uses "From the Jenkins master ~/.ssh".
This type of credentials are the ones i am talking about:

Maybe is a groovy script but i haven't find a lot of information about it. Thanks for the help.

A: As of version 2.1.1 of the plugin (June 2016) this is possible through the CLI or the REST API:
https://github.com/jenkinsci/credentials-plugin/blob/master/docs/user.adoc#creating-a-credentials
from that page:

$ cat > credential.xml <<EOF
<com.cloudbees.plugins.credentials.impl.UsernamePasswordCredentialsImpl>
  <scope>GLOBAL</scope>
  <id>deploy-key</id>
  <username>wecoyote</username>
  <password>secret123</password>
</com.cloudbees.plugins.credentials.impl.UsernamePasswordCredentialsImpl>
EOF
$ curl -X POST -H content-type:application/xml -d @credential.xml \
https://jenkins.example.com/job/example-folder/credentials/store/folder/\
domain/testing/createCredentials

A: You can use the jenkins client from command line on the machine where the jenkins runs like:
java -jar jenkins-cli.jar -s http://localhost:8080/ groovy create-credential.groovy

with create-credential.groovy:
import jenkins.model.*
import com.cloudbees.plugins.credentials.CredentialsScope
import com.cloudbees.plugins.credentials.impl.UsernamePasswordCredentialsImpl

def addPassword = { username, new_password ->
    def creds = com.cloudbees.plugins.credentials.CredentialsProvider.lookupCredentials(
        com.cloudbees.plugins.credentials.common.StandardUsernameCredentials.class,
        Jenkins.instance
    )

    def c = creds.findResult { it.username == username ? it : null }

    if ( c ) {
        println "found credential ${c.id} for username ${c.username}"
    } else {
        def credentials_store = Jenkins.instance.getExtensionList(
            'com.cloudbees.plugins.credentials.SystemCredentialsProvider'
            )[0].getStore()

        def scope = CredentialsScope.GLOBAL

        def description = ""

        def result = credentials_store.addCredentials(
            com.cloudbees.plugins.credentials.domains.Domain.global(),
            new UsernamePasswordCredentialsImpl(scope, null, description, username, new_password)
            )

        if (result) {
            println "credential added for ${username}"
        } else {
            println "failed to add credential for ${username}"
        }
    }
}

addPassword('pinky', 'narf')

This will add the global credential for user 'pinky' with password 'narf'

A: Jenkins credentials plugin doesn't allow credentials creation using API (https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-28407).
A viable solution would be recording a credential creation using your prefered browser and JMeter proxy or Selenium IDE. and replaying it using JMeter CLI or saving the Selenium recorded test as a groovy script.
You may also take a look at https://github.com/jenkinsci/credentials-plugin/pull/33

A: Here is an example ansible task that uses "jenkins_script" instead of directly specifying the CLI or calling the REST API, and it adds the benefit of updating existing credentials.
- name: establish credentials
  jenkins_script:
    script: |
      import jenkins.model.*
      import com.cloudbees.plugins.credentials.CredentialsProvider
      import com.cloudbees.plugins.credentials.CredentialsScope
      import com.cloudbees.plugins.credentials.common.StandardUsernameCredentials
      import com.cloudbees.plugins.credentials.domains.Domain
      import com.cloudbees.plugins.credentials.impl.UsernamePasswordCredentialsImpl
      def domain = Domain.global()
      def instance = Jenkins.instance
      def credstore = instance.getExtensionList(
          'com.cloudbees.plugins.credentials.SystemCredentialsProvider'
          )[0].getStore()
      def existingCreds = CredentialsProvider.lookupCredentials(
          StandardUsernameCredentials.class, instance).findResult {
              it.username == '${username}' ? it : null
          }
      def newCreds = new UsernamePasswordCredentialsImpl(
          CredentialsScope.GLOBAL, null,
          '${description}', '${username}', '${password}')
      if (existingCreds) {
          credstore.updateCredentials(domain, existingCreds, newCreds)
      } else {
          credstore.addCredentials(domain, newCreds)
      }
    args:
      description: "entrada credential"
      username: "{{ item.username }}"
      password: "{{ item.password }}"

Rose Parade returns to Pasadena amid Omicron surge, smaller crowd – Los Angeles Times
3 weeks ago immitate
The Rose Parade is back.
After the coronavirus forced its first cancellation since World War II last year, the whimsical, flower-filled procession returned to Pasadena on Saturday.
The parade began at 8 a.m. Pacific, with actor and television host LeVar Burton serving as grand marshal. The theme is "Dream. Achieve. Believe."
While the return of the Rose Parade is seen by many as a cheerful respite from two painful pandemic years, it is clouded by a dramatic surge in COVID-19 cases fueled by the highly contagious Omicron variant.
As spectators from across the country lined Colorado Boulevard, nearly 1 in 4 people in Los Angeles County who are being tested are positive for the coronavirus, and daily totals of new, confirmed infections are doubling every two days.
The parade crowd was smaller than in years past. Although some people had been camped along the route since midday on New Year's Eve — a beloved tradition for those hoping to score a good view of the floats — many arrived Saturday morning and found a front-row spots and, pratically unheard of, good parking.
On Thursday, Kaiser Permanente canceled plans to have front-line medical staffers participate in the Rose Parade.
"We must prioritize the health and safety of our front-line medical staff and ensure we are able to treat patients during this recent surge of COVID-19 cases caused by the Omicron variant," the healthcare system said in a statement.
Kaiser had planned to have 20 medical workers riding and walking in front of its float, which is called "A Healthier Future" and features the figures of four children, including one wearing a stethoscope and caring for a teddy bear named Booster. The float will still be in the parade.
Numerous health and safety measures are being taken by event organizers, including the cancellation of indoor events leading up to the parade.
"All the planning that we have done has positioned us well to be able to host the Rose Parade in a safe and healthy way," said David Eads, executive director of the Tournament of Roses.
"The overall sense of renewal and rebirth of the Rose Parade is forefront with everybody. We've come up with a couple of terms for it: 'One parade, two years in the making,' and 'The bloom is back.'"
The Tournament of Roses is requiring the 6,000-plus parade participants, including people on floats, marching bands and equestrians, to provide proof of vaccination or a negative coronavirus test within 72 hours of the start of the event.
Parade spectators ages 12 and up in ticketed areas, including grandstands, also had to provide proof of vaccination or a negative test. Attendees ages 2 and up in those areas were required to wear a mask.

Along the rest of the 5.5-mile route, where people can just walk up and watch, vaccination and negative test results were not checked.
Before the parade began, Craig Farestveit jogged along an empty Colorado Boulevard with two friends, as he has done annually for a decade.
Even without a parade last year, they jogged the route to try and keep the festive spirit alive.
"It's nice being back, seeing the tortillas in the street, innovative bedding situations," Farestveit said as he peered around at campers who rang in the new year on the street. (For years, it has been a tradition for campers to throw tortillas filled with shaving cream at passing cars.)
Farestveit and his friends shook their heads when asked if the Omicron surge made them consider sitting this year out, saying running was one of the things they have been able to do safely together.
"At the height of COVID, on our deep trail runs, everybody was masked up; it was interesting," said his friend, Tom Queally, 60.
Just before sunrise, Leslie Lemus and her family plopped their camping chairs along Colorado Boulevard in the Pasadena Playhouse District.
In years past, at that hour, the sidewalks would have been jam-packed with spectators. But Lemus found easy, close parking and plenty of viewing space.
"You get like VIP views!" Lemus told her 8-year-old daughter, who sat bundled in a thick, hooded jacket.
"I'm surprised there aren't more people," said Lemus, who wore a black surgical mask.

Lemus figured the smaller crowd was because of the coronavirus surge. She said she felt safe on Saturday because her entire family was vaccinated and was putting some space between themselves and other attendees.
Nearby, Danelle Sullivan, 45, of Highland Park, applied makeup to her eyes with a small compact mirror as her 9-year-old daughter slept next to her on an inflatable mattress, clutching a stuffed horse with a Rose Parade bandana around its neck.
Sullivan watched the parade on television as a child but said it's extra-special seeing it in person.
The mother and daughter last came in 2018. They arrived for this year's parade at noon Friday, expecting the huge crowds they saw back then.
"We could've stayed warmer for longer," Sullivan said. "But [we're] not really upset. To come out here is an adventure."
Near Roosevelt Avenue, Deborah Twyford, 54, of Eastvale, sat by a propane-fueled fire pit with crumpled confetti at her feet. Six chairs were reserved for the rest of her family, who arrived Friday afternoon and camped overnight, barbecuing hamburgers and playing games.
"I thought there would be more people last night for the New Years celebration, and I thought I'd wake up to rows of chairs from what I'd read," she said. "I'm really surprised."
This year's parade features 43 floats, 20 marching bands and 18 equestrian units, according to the Tournament of Roses.
Michelle Van Slyke, senior vice president of marketing and sales for the UPS Store, said in an interview that preparations for the company's float — which is called "Rise, Shine & Read!" and features a bespectacled, bright yellow rooster named Charlie reading to a group of chicks — has been going on for about a year.
The float won the parade's prestigious Sweepstakes award this year.
In 2020, float planning was already underway when the Tournament of Roses pulled the plug on the event because of the pandemic. But the UPS Store, she said, "had our hands full" as an essential business that stayed open amid lockdowns.
This week, as the final decorations were being applied to the float, she said that "safety is the number one priority" and that masking and social distancing have been essential.
The company's float is enormous: 35 feet tall and 55 feet long. Van Slyke said it weighs about 24 tons, with 12 moving parts and 130,000 flowers.

"If you're going to do it, do it in a way that's going to be fun and magical," she said. "We all know we're in the life's-too-short category these days, and we want to bring some brightness after everything we've been through these last two years."
Van Slyke grew up in San Bernardino and came to the Rose Parade year after year with her grandfather, a construction worker who came annually, even if he was by himself. They would spend the night along the parade route with chorizo and egg burritos and hot chocolate in thermoses.
"My grandfather would just be ecstatic if he knew I was involved in putting a float together," she said.
Despite the festive atmosphere and postcard-perfect blue skies, some attendees said COVID-19 was never far from their minds.
"COVID worries me in general, like all the time," said Kathleen Peralta-Wente, who shouted, "Happy New Year!" at every passing float and band while standing atop a kitchen stool near Madison Avenue to see over other spectators' heads.
Several of Peralta-Wente's relatives tested positive for the coronavirus after gathering for Christmas, she said.
Peralta-Wente, 55, a lifelong Pasadena resident, quarantined at home all week and tested negative before the parade, which she has attended at least 25 times.
"We did not go out," she said of herself and her husband. "We Postmated and Instacarted our way through that."
She said she plans to get a booster shoot soon, with added motivation after this week's scare.
Valerie Brown, 62, of Loma Linda, sat with several family members near Lake Avenue, wearing a Happy New Year headband.
"Sometimes I've been here when it's so crowded you can't move," Brown said from the unobstructed front-row spot she snagged Saturday morning. "So it is nice having less people."
After moving to California in 1986, Brown made it a priority to attend the parade as much as possible. Her father had always wanted to come.
"We grew up in Indiana watching the Rose Parade, but we could never afford to go," Brown said. "We'd talk about how he always wanted to watch it."
Her father loved the marching bands. He played tuba in his high school band. Brown played the flute, her sister played the clarinet, one brother played the saxophone, and another brother played the trumpet.
Brown's son was a percussionist and still does music for a living, she said.
She was able to bring her father to the parade one time. A bucket-list item, checked off.

The Radical Nature of PROUT
19 August, 2012 prbhkr	Leave a comment
By Dr. Marcos Arruda
The nine years that have passed since Dada Maheshvarananda first published this precious book have proven its validity and relevance. The first decade of the 21st century dramatically revealed the chaotic, dehumanizing and destructive nature of global capital. Capitalism's logic of maximum profit in the shortest time, with minimal government regulation and intervention has created a war economy of all against all – people against people, companies against workers and other companies, workers against workers, nations against nations, gender against gender, humans against God, nature and other species. And commercialized fiction still imagines wars between humans and aliens! Humanity seems to have forgotten its spiritual origin and been caught in the trap of fetishes: material wealth, money and power have become the goals not only of the economy, but of life itself.
"PROUT does not ignore the contradictory nature of our human reality, for that is what stimulates our evolving, dynamic character."
Dada Maheshvarananda's book enriches the paradigm of P.R. Sarkar, who proposes that human development in its highest sense should be the goal of economic development. Dada emphasizes Sarkar's conception of an economy that is human-centered, that human beings are multi-dimensional, and that their wholeness encompasses the natural, the individual and the social, the physical, mental, psychic and spiritual. Such a being is in continuous evolution, self-directed in active and creative interaction with the great human family, life as a whole and with the natural environment, in a search for balance, harmony, wellbeing and happiness that is continually being recreated.
The radical nature of this proposal is the second feature of Sarkar's PROUT, and lies in its viability – the act of making real the vision and dream of an economy that is just, equitable, and harmonious, and which produces wellbeing and happiness for all. Dada illustrates this feasibility with a great wealth of examples, narrated so that anyone reading the book feels confident that PROUT – and every proposal for an economy that is centered on the whole human being, conscious and progressive – is historically viable.
In the holistic and systemic approach of Prout, which I greatly admire, no aspect of human existence is left out. There is critical reflection about the reality of the world, as well as the search for another way of constructing it.
The proposal to place human beings, individually and collectively, in the center of the social relations of production, demands that the economy be treated as valuable, but economics is not the only dimension of human existence on the planet, nor even the most important one. In the work of Sarkar, enriched by Dada, the economy exists alongside political, cultural, environmental and spiritual dimensions, creating a challenge that is just as complex and multidimensional as human beings are.
This is just one aspect of PROUT's proposal that is close to what we have built under the name of "solidarity socioeconomy". Other aspects of this convergence include a radical critique of capitalism and emphasis on human values such as altruism, a cooperative spirit, solidarity and mutual respect for human and cultural diversity. Our very survival as a species depends on our developing these qualities, applying them not only with other humans, but also with the Earth and the Cosmos.
PROUT does not ignore the contradictory nature of our human reality, for that is what stimulates our evolving, dynamic character. It enhances our human consciousness, allowing us to adopt an attitude of active collaboration with the Creation. It achieves this by:
Working to overcome the pseudo-culture that subverts the spirit and will of many people, conditioning them to be self-centered, competitive and aggressive. In addition, deconstructing the illusion that individualism is the highest value, and the capitalist myth that, by maximizing self-interest, everyone benefits.
Promoting the culture of compassion, altruism, cooperation and solidarity.
Striving to realize the complementary dimensions of the human being: personal and collective, feminine and masculine, present and historical, active and contemplative, rational and sentimental, instinctive and volitional, material and spiritual, animal, human and superhuman.
Sarkar's critique of global capitalism is deeply radical, and the author applies it to the reality of Brazil, where he lived for 11 years, and to the world. It is revolutionary, because it examines capitalism not only as a system that organizes the social relations of production, but also for its ontological, ethical and epistemological assumptions. The author examines the fruits of capitalism, not in their abstract sense, but in their historical and social location.
PROUT proposes that personal development has a role in changing the world. Great historical transformations begin with personal choice. Our everyday actions can contribute to significant social change. Each transforming act of improvement joins with others, like small lights merging to form a great effulgence.
This book presents some concepts that are completely redefined. For example, today's notion of wealth is purely material, centered on capital, money and goods. PROUT greatly expands this concept, designing the economy to satisfy the material needs of human beings and supporting their mental and spiritual growth. Technological progress is also reinterpreted, as that which frees the time of workers from the tasks of mere survival, allowing people to dedicate more and more time to developing their higher capacities.
The author's analysis of global capitalism is deeply critical. Even as this capitalist system progresses technically and materially, producing an ever-growing abundance of products, it causes growing human suffering. Because of a compulsion to increase the concentration of wealth, capitalists construct increasing numbers of obstacles to the healthy distribution and circulation of money and resources. They commercialize and steal the dignity of not only everything in Nature, but also of the human being.
The book brings together prominent contributing authors from diverse cultures to construct a Proutist vision of socioeconomic and human transformation. The author shares with us Sarkar's opinion that Karl Marx was not opposed to spirituality or to superior human values.
There are countless spiritual movements that propose that the solution for every human problem lies in the subjective sphere. However, this is not the case with PROUT. Although it is deeply rooted in Indian culture and spirituality, this movement combines action with contemplation, and material human development with the spiritual. It contributes to an undeniable universalism. The book has another value: the author is one of the guides of this movement, combining all the wealth of these proposals with his practical experience and spiritual understanding.
The "utopian" aspect of this proposal may intimidate some readers. I would like to remind them that no system of social organization ever appeared in history based only on the abstract vision of an illuminated thinker. PROUT's proposal is being lived, even as I write, in a diversity of forms and with different names, by millions of people and communities around the world. The "utopian" dimension of the proposal involves planning for an entire country, and hopefully, all of humanity. But it is practical in that it aspires to be a "realistic utopia." This vision is anchored in the human being's wholeness, and enacted in the enlightened lifestyle of a growing number of activists who search for concrete answers to the problems faced by contemporary humanity.
Global capitalism, with its single-minded desire to consume, fails to fulfill the deepest aspirations of humanity as a whole and of each individual. PROUT's proposal has the power to construct itself in a post-capitalist project that embraces both existential values and the organization of human society.
This proposal is also being submitted to the hard test of the real world. Venezuela, where Dada currently lives, offers favorable conditions for its implementation. And it is exactly in the field of practice that I believe PROUT will network and converge more and more with other grassroots groups that share similar principles, values and vision, such as the solidarity socioeconomy, the solidarity economy, the social economy and the agricultural revolution. Eventually this will become concrete in one or more experiences at the national level, leading towards a cooperative globalization based on solidarity. The ever-more likely potential of this movement is to transform the human species into ultra human beings.
Rio de Janeiro, March 17, 2012.
In 1970 the Brazilian dictatorship imprisoned and tortured Marcos Arruda. Amnesty International lobbied the government to release him. Once released, he was forced into exile for 11 years. He worked with Paulo Freire for four years at the Institute for Cultural Action based in Geneva. He also served as a consultant to the ministries of education in Guinea Bissau, Cape Verde and Nicaragua. He received his Master's degree in Development Economics from American University in Washington, DC, and a doctorate in Education from Universidade Federal Fluminense. He has contributed to several books and has written over one hundred articles and papers. With sociologist Herbert de Souza ("Betinho"), he founded the Brazilian Institute of Social and Economic Analysis (IBASE). Marcos Arruda is director of the Institute of Alternative Policies for the Southern Cone (PACS), which helps educate and train groups of workers in Rio de Janeiro to manage their own enterprises.

Germany, Frankfurt Guide (A): Frankfurt Art Museums
Frankfurt has a lot of art museums, more than can be visited during a normal stay. An all-purpose ticket good at 33 museums over two days allows visitors to cherry-pick their way through a lot of art for 15 euros (about U.S. $22). The museum pass is available at all participating museums. Most of the museums on this tour are very close together, making the tour a good rainy day option. Many museums are closed Mondays.

Guide Name: Frankfurt Art Museums
Guide Location: Germany » Frankfurt
Sight(s) featured in this guide: • Museum Giersch • Liebighaus • Staedel Museum • Museum of Communication • Schirn Kunsthalle • Modern Art Museum • Portikus
Author: Joe Mapother
Author Bio: Joe Mapother is a journalist who has lived and worked in Europe for most of the past 30 years, the last five of them in Frankfurt. Still an inveterate wanderer, Joe last year began turning that experience into travel pieces to make the journey easier for others.
1) Museum Giersch
Giersch opened its doors in 2000 and is dedicated to exhibiting art from the region. Among regional notables are Hanna Bekker vom Rath, patron, collector and talented artist in her own right, whose "Blue House" outside Frankfurt in Hofheim was the nucleus for a group of influential Expressionist painters prior to World War II. Another well known center for Expressionism was the Mathildenhoehe, a hilltop artists colony in nearby Darmstadt. Most of the four museum floors are given over to temporary exhibitions. The cherry picker's tip is the permanent collection of 18th and 19th Century landscapes of Frankfurt, found on the ground floor. This provides a rare opportunity to see what the city looked like before the medieval fortifications were torn down. Hours are; closed Mondays; Tuesday - Thursday, 12 p.m. to 7 p.m. Friday - Sunday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
2) Liebighaus
Liebighaus takes on the daunting task of tracing 5,000 years of sculpture from ancient Egypt through the Neo-Classic era in the 18th and 19th centuries. For stroll that is five-millenium long, the exhibition area is fairly compact. An English-language broschure with map is available. The cherry picker's tips are the Renaissance 'studioli' rooms and Baroque 'bozzetto' study, which display not only the art but they way it was exhibited in those periods. The courtyard cafe is quiet and shady. Opening hours are; Tuesday - Saturday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday, 10 a.m. to 9 p.m.
3) Staedel Museum
Staedel, with a collection of 2,700 paintings and 600 sculptures, is the main city art museum. Its roots go back to 1815 and a generous donation by banker Johann Friedrich Staedel. At the time of this writing, the museum is nearing the end of an extensive 45-million-euro renovation. During construction, exhibitions continued in a wing of the museum behind the main building. The renovated and expanded portions of the museum will begin reopening Oct. 7, with an exhibition of the works of German painter Max Beckmann. Opening hours; Tuesday, Friday - Sunday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday, 10 a.m. to 9 p.m.
4) Museum of Communication
This compact museum traces the development of the mails and telephone system from the 1700s to present day, with a strong emphasis on art. The museum foundation owns collection of more than 250 paintings with emphasis on post-war art. It includes works by Salvador Dali, and Max Ernst. Only some works are on display, but the combination of art with more traditional postal fare in this airy, modern museum provides an off-beat look at the world of communication. Cherry pickers at this museum may want to view the Enigma coding machines used by the German military in World War II, which are in the downstairs exhibition area. Another stop is a video screen showing famous Hollywood actors and their sometimes not so memorable lines spoken into a telephone. It's the sequencing that makes it work, and the language is English. Opening hours; Tuesday - Friday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Weekends and holidays, 11 a.m. to 9 p.m.
5) Schirn Kunsthalle
This art museum doesn't have a permanent collection. What it has been doing since it opened in 1986 is special exhibitions. Sometimes a couple are run simultaneously. With 21,500 square feet of exhibition space, there is plenty of room. The gallery is located next to the main cathedral in the heart of the old city. Oversize posters on the outside walls advertise the current exhibit. They're hard to miss. If you want to check in advance whether there is an exhibition, the Schirn program is available on an English-language website: www.schirn.de/en.html Opening hours; Tuesday, Friday - Sunday, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday, 10 a.m. to 10 p.m.
6) Modern Art Museum
If you like the impossible architecture of M.C. Escher, the Museum for Modern Art (MMK) is worth a visit just to see the building. The interior stairways seem to occupy different planes within the all-white interior and there are ramps to interior windows designed for no other reason than to offer a new vantage point to view the interior. Paintings on display at MMK date from the 1960s to the present and include works of Claes Oldenburg and Roy Lichtenstein. The cherry pickers tip is to find a seat in one of the triangular rooms on the corners of the building and look out at the city through the floor-to-ceiling windows. Opening hours; Tuesday - Sunday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Wednesday, 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.
7) Portikus
Portikus is a small gallery devoted to modern art, generally artists who are not well known. A sample of recent exhibits include works by the American Dan Graham, the Chinese artist Chu Yung and Sergej Jensen, a Danish artist who lives in Berlin. Portikus is located on an island in the Main river, which has been its home since 2006. If you want to check whether there is an ongoing exhibition, the gallery is closed between exhibitions, or want to see what is on display, go to English-language website: http://www.portikus.de/19.html?&L=1 and click on 'Chronological.' Portikus hours are Tuesday - Sunday, 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., Wednesday, 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.

The classical ether-drift experiments: A modern re-interpretation
M. Consoli
C. Matheson
A. Pluchino
Regular Article
The condensation of elementary quanta and their macroscopic occupation of the same quantum state, say k = 0 in some reference frame Σ, is the essential ingredient of the degenerate vacuum of present-day elementary particle physics. This represents a sort of "quantum ether" which characterizes the physically realized form of relativity and could play the role of preferred reference frame in a modern re-formulation of the Lorentzian approach. In spite of this, the so-called "null results" of the classical ether-drift experiments, traditionally interpreted as confirmations of Special Relativity, have so deeply influenced scientific thought as to prevent a critical discussion on the real reasons underlying its alleged supremacy. In this paper, we argue that this traditional null interpretation is far from obvious. In fact, by using Lorentz transformations to connect the Earth's frame to Σ, the small observed effects point to an average Earth's velocity of about 300 km/s, as in most cosmic motions. A common feature is the irregular behaviour of the data. While this has motivated, so far, their standard interpretation as instrumental artifacts, our new re-analysis of the very accurate Joos experiment gives clear indications for the type of Earth's motion associated with the CMB anisotropy and leaves little space for this traditional interpretation. The new explanation requires instead a view of the vacuum as a stochastic medium, similar to a fluid in a turbulent state of motion, in agreement with basic foundational aspects of both quantum physics and relativity. The overall consistency of this picture with the present experiments with vacuum optical resonators and the need for a new generation of dedicated ether-drift experiments are also emphasized.

Bush and co in the US
Former US presidents are considered outside politics (they are mostly ineligible for further office) in a way that former British PMs are not.
Carol Stewart, in reply to Nick Russell, 10:42 Jul 8, 2016
Maybe it's because we expected better of Blair.
It'll be interesting to see whether the Chilcot report stirs up any soul searching in Australia. Neither the Howard government nor Kevin Rudd emerge from the quagmire with much credit.
Carol Stewart, 10:48 Jul 8, 2016
Apparently it has: What was Australia's role in the Iraq war and should we have had an enquiry?
Nick Russell, in reply to Carol Stewart, 10:51 Jul 8, 2016

I wouldn't bet on it. There's an awful lot of denial going on in all quarters. The Tories in UK supported the war far more than the Labour Party did and the Tory press were rabidly in favour. You wouldn't know that from reading the Daily Mail. They were happy to believe Blair then and they are just as happy to condemn him now.
I don't recall who said it but there is a famous quote that all newspaper editorials ever do is bayonet the wounded after the shooting has stopped. I think that's where we are on this now.
bob daktari, 11:05 Jul 8, 2016
The question I have is will the findings of the Chilcot report lead to any country still involved in the middle eastern conflicts reassess their strategies for the area
Given the pretence for the original invasion was wrong, that justification wrong, the subsequent plan for post invasion Iraq inadequate... will anyone actually think, fuck maybe there's a better way to handle this clusterfuck that won't lead to ever more crazy insurgent groups and terrorist cells forming as a result of our actions... maybe there is a means to operate in the area that won't see us having to take back Fallujah by force again... a way that won't see us "training" the same people over and over again with no discernible success
Maybe their is a leader out there with the guts to say "we're doing this wrong"

Margaret Thatcher gained in power by invading the Falklands.
No doubt Blair believed that he would also gain.

I first heard about Hard News because of the impending war. I asked a friend who was more net-savvy (read: had a lot more spare time on his hands) than I, if there was anyone writing anything that made sense about this debacle in this country, so pathetic was the mainstream media reporting. Hard News was high on his list of go-tos for sensible journalistic opinion on it. I think I pretty much gave up on MSM opinion pieces on that day. MSM is now something that I read/watch/listen to only for strictly factual detail – anything that is not a statement of something that actually happened is something I don't even read/watch/listen to. It's been extraordinary to find myself in MSM recently, since I barely partake of it myself. I find out about it from other people, and don't feel that enthusiastic when I do. I still rate ten times higher than a media interview a simple engagement from a committed good faith commentator. In that discourse comes the soul of rational thought. In clips and soundbites comes the destruction of it.
So this site, with it's long and consistent deconstruction of the predictable and disgusting intervention in the Middle East, has been a great thing, a rare thing, an important thing. In my opinion. From that backbone comes the many other cool things that it has built, the other interesting authors, a community with a soul.
I was there protesting when 15 million people protested against the US invasion of Iraq in a single coordinated demonstration of rejection. I felt how powerless we'd become in that way, and it was a very alarming feeling indeed. Organizing truly effective protest takes a lot more than that. I don't know what the future of progressive movements is. The only hope I really have is that another thing that happened in the 10 years since, the move from fringe to outright dominance of Linux and Wikipedia in their respective spaces, has the seeds of the future of human organization and work in it.
If we must work for free, at least we could work on what is righteous. The vast bulk of people can't afford to, but those who can, should. To that end, I applaud you, Russell, for working on at least keeping some of the record straight on Iraq. It's a huge job, your contributions a tiny piece of the global picture. But it still helps, it was still worthwhile, however little you got paid for any of it.

David Kelly, possibly the first casualty of the war on the war on terror.
Deserves to be remembered here.

The Iraq war was primarily an American imposition on the Middle East. Blair was led into it by the fool Bush.
Excellent post Rob. I'd like to add a little about the American motivation behind the Iraq "war". We know now that it never had anything to do with WMDs. That threat was dreamed up* by the Bush administration as a lowest common-denominator excuse, one that the media and the population would swallow. (*Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz – Vanity Fair interview.
Cheney, Rumsfelt and others had already used the shock of 9/11 to pursue their goal of opening up the US military machine to private companies. The "War on Terror" facilitated the transfer of billions of dollars from taxpayers to private corporations, a rort that continues in the US today.
The Bush neoconservatives were looking for a middle east country to become a "model" for capitalism, one whose economic transformation would serve as a catalyst to inspire other Arab-Muslim countries to join the democratic/neoliberal wave. In a post-9/11 world, Iraq fitted the bill. Apart from its vast oil reserves it provided a central location for military bases. And besides, Saddam's use of chemical weapons on his own countrymen made him an easy target to hate.
The plan was to win the battle in a few days, then take advantage of a country in shock to privatise the Iraqi economy and open it up to American companies. While winning the war turned out to be more difficult than they'd anticipated, US multinationals including Halliburton, Gilead and Lockheed flocked to Iraq where there were billions to be made.
They installed Paul Bremner as governor (CEO) of Iraq. He took over Saddam's palace where the US Defence Dept faxed him trade and investment laws which he signed and imposed as law on the Iraqi people. He lowered the corporate tax rate from 45% to a flat 15% and allowed foreign corporations to take 100% of their profits out of the country. The Economist described this as "the wish list that foreign investors and donor agencies dream of for developing markets."
Around $US73b went into rebuilding Iraq, but none of it went to state or local businesses. Nor did they employ locals. The US companies preferred to import their own labour with Halliburton employing 50,000 people in Iraq. They sacked 500,000 state workers, including doctors, teachers and engineers.
A group dominated by high level Mormons called the Research Triangle Institute was given $466m to bring "democracy to the country. They believed they could persuade Muslims to convert to Mormonism. That didn't go well.
Bremner's administration also took over $US20b of revenue from Iraq's national oil company, much of which simply went missing. The war machine made a lot of Americans very wealthy.
This never was a justified invasion. There never were any WMDs. For Cheney & Co this was a giant free market experiment which history will judge as a miserable failure. As Rob said, Blair was taken for a fool, as were many other world leaders who participated in the coalition of the coerced.
Blair had the information to make a wiser decision but decided to suck up the US rhetoric instead. As the former British PM responsible for the deaths of thousands of innocent people, he deserves to be tried as a war criminal.
Apologies for the lengthy rave.

Alfie, that is just plain bollocks. There was certainly a natural alignment between neocons and the profit-seeking Halliburton/Cheney that made the latter easy to co-opt, but as Karen Kwiatkowski http://www.commondreams.org/views04/0310-09.htm observed" target="_blank">https://web.archive.org/web/20140226163127/http://www.commondreams.org/views04/0310-09.htm observed first-hand from within the machine, the primary motivation was pure neocon ideology, which had bugger-all to do with profit.

Well, as you outline in your post, it seems to have succeeded admirably for a few individuals and organisations....

Is Farage a leftist or what? Some of his former speeches make me think, he is not quite the right wing nutter some want us to believe, he saw the issues with the west arming certain groups in the Middle East:
I am surprised the Brexit vote was not more profound, than it was, it is a disaster, just proof of an extension of European powers' imperialism of modern age not working for many.
Europe is screwed, only some left liberal urban dweller bureaucrats think it is a magic solution to all probs, same issues we have in NZ, a lost government and elite class that has lost ALL touch with reality of basic realities of most ordinary people.
The Wellington beltway will soon learn how out of touch they are, polls here and there, and parties living in their own bubbles, just endless BS.
It is the total cowardice of so called "western" liberals that is a hindrance to address the shit that goes on I am sorry.
Fuck Dallas, that shows us there is no unity, and heaps of divisions, I wish it wont be serious, but it looks bad.

Who needs reality when some think your leader has "Charisma" Isnt that the name of a horse?
Tracy can interview her keyboard for as long as she wants she still doesnt understand much...
Lesson 1: Everyone, I'll say that again, Everyone will fuck up. Most of us fuck up and only one's self is affected. It depends on circumstance. When some one in a position of importance fucks up it affects a lot of people. But no matter ..Everyone will FUCK UP. There is no way you wont. Some will do it one, two, three times in their life. Some all the time. Tony et al fucked up. Now to make it worse, they wont admit to it. Way to make it worse guys....Now National & co are fucking up.. And wont fess up . Carry on.

That's a rather strong line Andrew and I'm surprised that you can't see any link between pure neocon ideology and profit. Because to me, the two are inextricably linked.
The link you provided is broken -- I've fixed that. I'm not familiar with Kwiatkowski but note that she stood for the Republican Party in 2012 which might not make her the most strident critic of that party's policies.
While she backs up my comments on the entirely constructed WMD scenario and "Feith-Wolfowitz-Rumsfeld-Cheney's insanely grandiose vision of some future Middle East, with peace, love and democracy brought on through preemptive war and military occupation", nowhere on that page can I find Kwiatkowski claiming that Rumsfeld, Cheney and their mates didn't make obscene profits from the Iraq war. Perhaps you could assist by providing a quote?

Good to see You Tube finally catching on to what madness is still available via their service. One would have thought that certain stuff was no longer available, but they constantly seem to be busy with catch up game with the culprits.
Maybe we also need the NSA doing more cyber-security and surveillance, after all?
Marc C, 02:17 Jul 11, 2016
So I am sorry, but the western people in comfy comfort need to learn what really goes on in the world, this is you risking your own credibility and rights to exist as democratic countries if you do not act, take up refugees and ignore all else, you do this at your own peril, the war will sooner or later come to haunt you, so there you go.
This is what Nazis called a Himmelfahrts Commando, a suicide commando, there we go, idle and soft western media do not quite get it.
So WAR must be resisted, resisted and opposed full stop. I still believe most will not get it but the above should tell all, hey war is SHIT and must not be allowed, only if people across cultures take a stand will this be stopped, I fear most will not get it.

I have asked you not to redistribute these videos here and you did it anyway.
To be honest, I won't miss your tendentious lectures.

How does HGH change the sport
>Categories: Health, Life, Sports
Bicycle racing champion, Lance Armstrong denied allegations of doping and HGH use until 2013. The multi-winner of Tour de France had fallen under a cloud that many, in his sport, say are wide-spread. Knowledge within athletics may be wide-spread. Outside of sports, not as much knowledge of HGH is limited and often confused. Here you can learn more about HGH in sports and how GH finds its way into the sports world. Now let's get to the topic. What is HGH used for in sport and how it affects on results improvement.
How to test HGH doping?
The body makes different forms of GH, each of which has a unique molecular weight (measured in daltons). Most natural (or "endogenous") growth hormone comes in either a 22,000- or a 20,000-dalton form. Synthetic growth hormone, on the other hand, tends to come in a standard size: 22,000 daltons. By checking the ratio of the 22-kDa and 20-kDa varieties, it's a possible spot the presence of the lab-made chemical. Olympic athletes at Athens and Turin were tested for unnatural growth hormone using just this test.
The ratio test has two big problems. First, you have to catch the doper pretty soon after he takes the drug—the ratio of the two isoforms returns to normal within a few days. Anti-doping experts are hard at work to find a more persistent marker for synthetic-hormone use. One approach would be to look for another protein whose levels are affected by an increase in growth hormone. These might be other compounds related to growth, like the insulin-like growth factors, or IGFs.
The second problem with the ratio test is the needle. Players are more willing to pee in a cup than to pop a vein, but you won't find much growth hormone in a sample of urine. Urinalysis works for steroids because they're much smaller molecules—on the order of hundreds of daltons, as opposed to tens of thousands. The kidneys pass anabolic steroids into the urine, but they leave out almost all of the larger growth hormone.
Using of HGH in Sports
Growth hormone in sports deals with the use of growth hormones for the improvement of athletic ability. HGH, or human growth hormone, is a prescription medication and the use of HGH without a prescription is illegal.
HGH occurs naturally in the body. The use of HGH through injection, initially, was for medical purposes and then athletes got hold of it. Before HGH was developed in the early 80s, the only place to get, HGH was from the deceased.
The arrival of HGH, along with other hormone advancements, has made HGH more available both on the black market and from legitimate sources.
According to Dan Duchaine's "Underground Steroid Handbook", 1982 was the first to describe the use of HGH as a doping agent. The 1989 Olympic Committee became the first sanctioning body to brand HGH a banned substance. Despite HGH being illegal in the US, observers state that HGH is present in all levels of sport — from high school sports through the pros.
The proliferation of HGH rests partly on the fact that HGH is harder to detect than other performance-enhancing drugs such as steroids.
While there has never been a large randomized controlled trial that proves HGH provides benefits to users, there are also no significant adverse drug reactions. Many small studies have indicated the analysis was limited by the fact that little of the research evaluated athletic performance and by the fact that dosing levels in the studies did not reflect real-world use.

Q: SQLite query using TEMP B-TREE FOR ORDER BY instead of index I have a very simple table that includes 2 columns, message_id and server_timestamp, but when I look at the plan for this query:
sqlite> explain query plan select message_id, server_timestamp from messages group by message_id order by server_timestamp;
selectid|order|from|detail
0|0|0|SCAN TABLE messages USING COVERING INDEX index_messages_id_server_timestamp
0|0|0|USE TEMP B-TREE FOR ORDER BY

Where index_messages_id_server_timestamp is an index on (message_id, server_timestamp).
Why does this query need to use a temp b-tree for sorting?

A: Due to the GROUP BY, multiple rows of the table might result in a single row in the output. This breaks the relationship between the message_id and server_timestamp values, so it is no longer possible to prove that it is valid to use the index to sort them.
