The eight-week program, which will be offered twice a year, begins on August 17. Sessions will be held on Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Participants will have the opportunity to pitch their idea or new venture during the final week for a chance to win $5,000 to assist with initial startup costs and free desk space for one year in the heart of downtown, surrounded by other entrepreneurs, investors and support organizations.
"Engaging with the Greenville community is nothing new to Furman," said Anthony Herrera, Furman University's Chief Innovation Officer and the founding executive director of the Furman Institute for Innovation and Entrepreneurship. "GVL STARTS is one of the many new ways we are collaborating with community partners to grow a culture of innovation and position Greenville as a national hub for entrepreneurship."
According to Bryan Davis, Managing Director of the Furman Institute for Innovation and Entrepreneurship and the Program Director for GVL STARTS, while startups and small businesses are critical to a vibrant economy, over 70% of new businesses fail within five years due to problems that can be addressed with the right foundation.
"Fortunately, a community like Greenville, which is fueled by collaboration and driven by a can-do spirit, has the opportunity to flip the script in an inclusive and equitable fashion," said Davis. "There is a critical mass of collaboration partners around the table supporting the GVL STARTS program, and ultimately, the aspiring entrepreneur or founder. To me, that is the magical element of this. It's not just about the great training, it's about the connections and experience you'll have that will absolutely give you a leg up to be successful in Greenville, regardless of your background, race, gender, age, etc."
According to Greenville City Manager John McDonough, GVL STARTS helps address the challenges facing every aspiring entrepreneur – the accessibility of training, connections and resources – and exemplifies the type of partnerships that Greenville is known for.
"Greenville is more than a vibrant place to visit and an affordable place to live. It's a thriving community for entrepreneurs," said McDonough. "We welcome, support and collaborate with innovators, and the GVL STARTS program powered by Furman will provide the educational workshops, coaching and networking they need to build confidence and ensure success."

Here's the deal: this is a 100% numbers-matching, documented, investment-grade, 36,806-mile 1970 Hemi 'Cuda with no baggage. But don't just take our word for it�there's an original Chrysler Corporation Broadcast Sheet and a complete Govier inspection report, with photographs, that confirms all this, too. Call us and we'll fax it to you.
Stories? This 36,806-mile car has none. All the sheetmetal is original. All the glass is original. It is one of only 368 Hemis built with a TorqueFlite transmission. The high-quality restoration was finished a few years ago, and the car has seen very little use since. It was regularly detailed top and bottom and stored in a climate-controlled facility since completion. The only major deviation from the "by the book" restoration was the installation of a 4.10 gearset in place of the original 3.55s, just to make it that much more fun to drive. "Nice car" doesn't even begin to describe it.
1970 Plymouth Hemi Cuda restoration was carried out to the highest standards using all the correct components, hoses, fasteners, and clamps. Although the fender tag suggests that the expected build date was October 13, 1969, the original door VIN decal indicates that the car was actually built sometime in November 1969. As a result, all the pieces on the car are properly date-coded prior to this. The engine casting date is 5-19-69, the transmission assembly date is 10-9-69, and the engine assembly date is 10-22-69. All 7 of the critical VINs on the car match, and we have a clear copy of the original broadcast sheet to go with it. This car is the real deal.


Keep up with pool cleaning this summer to make sure your paradise is happy and healthy!
Paradise can't truly be paradise if it's dirty and grimy! That's why it's important to make sure your pool is clean as can be at all times. Aside from the visual unattractiveness of a dirty pool, dirty water can also be quite dangerous to swim in. There might not even be visual signs of unhealthy water, which is why it's crucial to keep up with pool cleaning. As pool owners open up paradises throughout Maryland, here are some tips to make sure that your paradise is clean and healthy all summer long.
Surface Skimming. It all starts at the surface. Leaves, bugs, and other debris are practically inevitable. While water circulation will push a good deal of it into your pool's filter baskets (which, by the way, you need to empty frequently), you'll likely need to take a pass with a skimmer to totally clear off the surface. This reduces the amount of debris that sinks into the pool and reduces the amount of chlorine you need to keep your pool safe.
Vacuuming and Brushing. Your pool should be vacuumed about once a week to clear out any debris that sinks to the bottom. There are both manual and automatic varieties, and we'll touch back on this later. In addition to vacuuming, pool cleaning also means giving the tile and walls a good scrub once a week to prevent algae growth and calcium deposits. The material of your pool walls or pool finish will determine what tools you use — the harder the surface, the harder the brush you can and should use.
Pool Filters. Your filter needs to be cleaned or replaced to keep your water clean, but doing so too often can actually reduce the effectiveness of the mechanism. It should be cleaned (generally simply rinsed with a hose) when the flow pressure into the filter reaches about 10-15 pounds per square inch.
pH. This is a measure of the water's acidity or alkalinity, on a scale from 0 (most acidic) to 14 (most alkaline). The target for cleaning your pool is between 7.2 and 7.8 — the ideal range for healthy swimmers and effective sanitizers. Test kits are easy to find and easy to understand, and will tell you which types of chemicals your pool needs to balance out to a neutral pH.
Chlorine. Chlorine is one of the most commonly recognized pool cleaning agents. Organic contaminants like ammonia, nitrogen, and various bacteria will accumulate over time. Chlorine eliminates these contaminants and keeps your pool clean.
Did all of that sound like a whole lot of work? We have great news. Paradise Pools offers a few different automated cleaning systems that can take care of some (sorry, not all) of that hard work all on their own. Click through to that link to learn more about each of the systems we offer. With each one, however, this much is true: investing in an automated pool cleaning system will help ensure the prolonged cleanliness and healthiness of your pool — water, structure, and mechanisms. The amount you save by increasing the longevity of your pool, and the value you get from its cleanliness, far outweigh your initial investment. If you have any more questions about any of the pool cleaning systems listed here, feel free to reach out and get a conversation started.

We will setup your account after we have received payment and we and/or our payment partner(s) have screened the order(s) in case of fraud. It is your responsibility to provide us with an email address which is not at the domain(s) you are signing up under. If there is ever an abuse issue or we need to contact you, the primary email address on file will be used for this purpose. It is your responsibility to ensure the email address on file is current or up to date at all times. If you have a domain name registered with BizBOOM!, it is your responsibility to ensure that the contact information for your domain account and your actual domain name(s) is correct and up-to-date. BizBOOM! is not responsible for a lapsed registration due to outdated contact information being associated with the domain. If you need to verify or change this information, you should contact our sales team via email. Providing false contact information of any kind may result in the termination of your account. In dedicated server purchases or high risk transactions, it will be necessary to provide government issued identification and possibly a scan of the credit card used for the purchase. If you fail to meet these requirements, the order may be considered fraudulent in nature and be denied.
All transactions with third party providers are solely between the visitor and the individual provider. BizBOOM! is not the agent, representative, trustee or fiduciary of you or the third party provider in any transaction.
All services provided by BizBOOM! may only be used for lawful purposes. The laws of the State of California, and the United States of America apply.
The customer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless BizBOOM! from any claims resulting from the use of our services.
BizBOOM! servers, including all related equipment, networks and network devices are provided only for authorized customer use. BizBOOM! systems may be monitored for all lawful purposes, including to ensure that use is authorized, for management of the system, to facilitate protection against unauthorized access, and to verify security procedures, survivability, and operational security. During monitoring, information may be examined, recorded, copied and used for authorized purposes. Use of BizBOOM! system(s) constitutes consent to monitoring for these purposes.
Any account found connecting to a third party network or system without authorization from the third party is subject to suspension. Access to networks or systems outside of your direct control must be with expressed written consent from the third party. BizBOOM! may, at its discretion, request and require documentation to prove access to a third party network or system is authorized.
Sites hosted on BizBOOM!'s service(s) are regulated only by U.S. law. Given this fact, and pursuant to Section 230(c) of the Communications Decency Act, we do not remove allegedly defamatory material from domains hosted on our service(s). The only exception to this rule is if the material has been found to be defamatory by a court, as evidenced by a court order. BizBOOM! is not in a position to investigate and validate or invalidate the veracity of individual defamation claims, which is why we rely on the legal system and courts to determine whether or not material is indeed considered defamatory. In any case in which a court order indicates material is defamatory, libelous, or slanderous in nature; we will disable access to the material. Similarly, in any case in which a US Court has placed an injunction against specified content or material; we will comply and remove or disable access to the material in question.
The language of Section 230(c) of the Communications Decency Act fundamentally states that Internet services providers like BizBOOM! and many of BizBOOM!'s other webhosting services and brands are republishers and not the publisher of content. Our service merely provides a hosting platform and space on which to host content, and any creation or publication of content on our services is the sole responsibility of the third-party user which creates or publishes the content. Therefore, BizBOOM! should not be held liable for any allegedly defamatory, offensive or harassing content published on sites hosted under BizBOOM!'s webhosting service(s).
BizBOOM! reserves the right to require changes or disable as necessary any web site, account, database, or other component that does not comply with its established policies, or to make any such modifications in an emergency at its sole discretion.
BizBOOM! reserves the right to charge the holder of the account used to send any unsolicited e-mail a clean up fee or any charges incurred for blacklist removal. This cost of the clean up fee is entirely at the discretion of BizBOOM!.
You agree to supply appropriate payment for the services received from BizBOOM!, in advance of the time period during which such services are provided. You agree that until and unless you notify BizBOOM! of your desire to cancel any or all services received, those services will be billed on a recurring basis. No bills, invoices, or other forms of communication will be sent by postal mail or fax. Clients wishing/requesting a paper printed invoice, cancellation notice, or any other form of communication, may request that BizBOOM! does so, but will be done at an added fee. As our billing system is completely automated, and as such is "unmanned", there will be a MINIMUM fee of $10.00 per printed request, to cover labor, printing, mailing expenses, and any other fees. Your requested documents will be sent upon payment.
Cancellations must be done in writing via the cancellation form provided in your BizBOOM! billing/support account. Once we receive your cancellation and have confirmed all necessary information with you via e-mail, we will inform you in writing (typically email) that your account has been cancelled. Your cancellation confirmation will contain a ticket/tracking number in the subject for your reference, and for verification purposes. You should immediately receive an automatic "Your request has been received..." email with a tracking number. An employee will confirm your request (and process your cancellation) shortly thereafter. If you do not hear back from us, or do not receive the automatic confirmation email within a few minutes after submitting your cancellation, please contact us immediately. We require that cancellations of service are done through the online form to (a) confirm your identity, (b) confirm in writing you are prepared for all files/emails to be removed, and (c) document the request. This process reduces the likelihood of mistakes, fraudulent/malicious requests, and ensures you are aware that the files, emails, and account may be removed immediately after a cancellation request is processed. Cancellations for virtual private servers (VPS), dedicated servers, dynamic (private cloud) servers, and cloud hosting accounts MUST be received 15 days prior to the invoice due date, or an additional month of service will be assessed.
As a client of BizBOOM!, it is your responsibility to ensure that your payment information is up to date, and that all invoices are paid on time. You agree that until and unless you notify BizBOOM! of your desire to cancel any or all services received (by the proper means listed in the appropriate section of the Terms of Service), those services will be billed on a recurring basis, unless otherwise stated in writing by BizBOOM!. BizBOOM! reserves the right to bill your credit card or billing information on file with us. BizBOOM! provides a 10 day grace period from the time the invoice is generated and when it must be paid. Any invoice that is outstanding for 7 days and not paid will result in a $10 late fee and/or an account suspension until account balance has been paid in full. The $10 late fee is applied in addition to whatever else is owed to BizBOOM! for services rendered. Access to the account will not be restored until payment has been received. Please note that the late fee for hosting services other than Business Hosting Packages are at a rate of 10%.
BizBOOM! reserves the right to change the monthly payment amount and any other charges at anytime.
our use of this service is at your sole risk. Our backup service runs once a week, overwrites any of our previous backups made, and only one week of backups are kept. This service is provided to you as a courtesy. BizBOOM! is not responsible for files and/or data residing on your account. You agree to take full responsibility for files and data transferred and to maintain all appropriate backup of files and data stored on BizBOOM! servers.
BizBOOM! reserves the right to cancel, suspend, or otherwise restrict access to the account at any time with or without notice.
Exchange rate fluctuations for international payments are constant and unavoidable. All refunds are processed in U.S. dollars, and will reflect the exchange rate in effect on the date of the refund. All refunds are subject to this fluctuation and BizBOOM! is not responsible for any change in exchange rates between time of payment and time of refund.
Customers may cancel at any time via the cancellation form provided in your BizBOOM! billing/support account. BizBOOM! gives you an unconditional 30 day money back guarantee on managed shared hosting.
Cancellations requested after the initial 30 days for Shared accounts will go into effect on the renewal date for that particular hosting package. Unless specifically requested, the account will remain active until the period expires. If the account is eligible, any request for a refund outside of the initial 30 day period will be given on a prorated basis with any previous extended term discount withheld. Refunds are to be determined once the account has been cancelled. Payments older than 60 days may require a refund via PayPal or mailed check due to our merchant account policies and procedures.
There are no refunds on dedicated servers, administrative fees, and install fees for custom software. Refund requests for .com, .net., and .org domain names (made within the 30 day money-back guarantee period) will have the common market value subtracted for those tld's. Any ccTLD's domain name purchases are non-refundable. Please note that domain refunds will only be considered if they were ordered in conjunction with a hosting package. Eligibility of said refunds will be determined at the time of cancellation.
Cancellation Requests must be received prior to the next billing period. Requests received after the billing period date will be billed an additional month of service. Cancellation Requests will not be processed until all outstanding invoices have been paid.
This section applies to Simple Shared Hosting Plans.
The use of more than 100,000 inodes on any shared account may potentially result in a warning first, and if no action is taken future suspension. Accounts found to be exceeding the 100,000 inode limit will automatically be removed from our backup system to avoid over-usage, however databases will still be backed up. Every file (a webpage, image file, email, etc) on your account uses up 1 inode.
On dedicated servers no full refund will be honored -- the 30 day money back guarantee does not apply. We reserve the right to refund a prorated amount or no refund at all.
BizBOOM!'s managed shared servers carry a 30 day unconditional money back guarantee on them. If you are not completely satisfied with our services within the first 30 days of your service, you will be given a full refund of the contract amount. Remember, this is only for monthly shared packages and does not apply to dedicated servers, administrative fees, install fees for custom software, or domain name purchases.
BizBOOM! will not activate new orders or activate new packages for customers who have an outstanding balance with BizBOOM!. For a new order to be setup or a new package to be activated, you must have a balance of $0.00, unless otherwise stated by BizBOOM! in writing.
Resellers are responsible for supporting their clients. BizBOOM! does not provide support to our Reseller's Clients. If a reseller's client contacts us, we reserve the right to place the client account on hold until the reseller can assume their responsibility for their client. All support requests must be made by the reseller on their clients' behalf for security purposes. Resellers are also responsible for all content stored or transmitted under their reseller account and the actions of their clients'. BizBOOM! will hold any reseller responsible for any of their clients actions that violate the law or the terms of service.
The amount you pay for hosting will never increase from the date of purchase. We reserve the right to change prices listed on bizboom.net, and the right to increase the amount of resources given to plans at any time.
Customer agrees that it shall defend, indemnify, save and hold BizBOOM! harmless from any and all demands, liabilities, losses, costs and claims, including reasonable attorney's fees asserted against BizBOOM!, its agents, its customers, officers and employees, that may arise or result from any service provided or performed or agreed to be performed or any product sold by customer, its agents, employees or assigns. Customer agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless BizBOOM! against liabilities arising out of; (1) any injury to person or property caused by any products sold or otherwise distributed in connection with BizBOOM!; (2) any material supplied by customer infringing or allegedly infringing on the proprietary rights of a third party; (3) copyright infringement and (4) any defective products sold to customers from BizBOOM!'s server.
By using any BizBOOM! services, you agree to submit to binding arbitration. If any disputes or claims arise against BizBOOM! or its subsidiaries, such disputes will be handled by an arbitrator of BizBOOM!'s choice. An arbitrator from the American Arbitration Association or the National Arbitration Forum will be selected in the state of California. Arbitrators shall be attorneys or retired judges and shall be selected pursuant to the applicable rules. All decisions rendered by the arbitrator will be binding and final. The arbitrator's award is final and binding on all parties. The Federal Arbitration Act, and not any state arbitration law, governs all arbitration under this Arbitration Clause. You are also responsible for any and all costs related to such arbitration.

BizBOOM! disclaims any warranty or merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose.

Self-Launching Convenience with a Back Up Engine
Our motorized, self-launching glider lets us give you a better, more diverse flight than we would be able to in a pure glider that needs to be towed. With our auxiliary engine, we can fly where ever, from Olympia to the San Juans, or fly later and see a sunset and the beautiful lights of the city at night. We can motor to areas where the soaring is good. And if the air lift fails, we can motor home. It's just like a sailboat with an engine, so you can go where you want to, even when nature isn't cooperating. The engine can be re-started during the flight at any time, assuring that your flight will last the full length of time.
With our self-launching glider, you have the best of both worlds. The engine is there when you need it and silent when you don't.
Extended Opportunities
It is also possible to go touring with our motorglider, from the San Juans, to Mt. Rainier, or even go out for a jaunt over the incredibly beautiful and remote Pacific coast of Washington. We've flown our glider over the Grand Canyon, Rocky Mountains, Sierra Mountains, Lake Tahoe, California coastline, and even as far as El Paso, Texas. Where would you like to go if you could?

The Ride
Our standard rides range from 25 minutes to one hour and cost between $100 to $200. Customized flights can be arranged. Gift Certificates are available, too.

The Perfect Gift Idea
The prefect gift is one which someone would really love but would never buy for themselves. And here you have it! Who wouldn't appreciate a gift certificate for a gloriously peaceful and quiet glider ride where they can take in all the beauty of the surrounding scenery from up in the sky?

Mahama and Trump come from the same stock – Majority Leader predicts loss for NDC
November 9, 2020 admin	LOCAL NEWS NEWS Politics
Majority Leader is asking former President John Mahama not to draw inspiration from the victory of Joe Biden, the President-elect of the United States of America.
Osei Kyei Mensah Bonsu argued that the NDC flag bearer is synonymous to what he described as the incompetent leadership of Donald Trump and thus he would be rejected during the upcoming December polls.
"Somebody should wake him up from his slumber. Perhaps it's one of the attributes of incompetent people. In his slumber he thinks that he can win," he told a media house on Sunday.
NDC Chairman Samuel Ofosu Ampofo speaking at a rally in Suhum asked Ghanaians to reject President Akufo-Addo just as the Americans did to Trump.
He observed that both Joe Biden and John Mahama shares same political history since both served as Vice Presidents and have also appointed for the first time a female running mate for a major political party.
But in a quick response, the Majority Leader wants former President Mahama to "pack his things and go and rest in pieces."
"Don't forget even when they were losing, they were telling Ghanaians that they were in a commanding lead just like Donald Trump did.
"When he was losing he said his people should rest he has won, John Mahama style. The two of them come from the name stalk. So John should pack his things and go and rest in pieces," he emphasised.

Home » Support for you » Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) » What is obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA)?
Obstructive sleep apnoea, or OSA, is a breathing problem that happens when you sleep.
If your throat closes completely, you stop breathing for a time. This is called an apnoea if it lasts for 10 seconds or more. If the airways in your throat narrow this is called a hypopnoea. When this happens, there may be a dip in the level of oxygen in your blood.
Your brain will start your breathing again. Some people wake up briefly, but others are not aware of what's happening. Breathing often restarts with a gasp or grunt and some movement. You relax again, and the pattern then starts again.
If you have severe OSA, this cycle can happen hundreds of times a night. These frequent arousals disrupt your sleep and so you can feel very sleepy during the day.
In normal breathing, air can travel freely to and from your lungs through your airways during sleep.
In OSA, your airway collapses, stopping air from travelling to and from your lungs, disturbing your sleep.

If you're a Jorge Luis Borges aficionado, there's a decided pleasure in judging if Croll's interpretation of Borges-as-programmer reads as authentic. If you're unfamiliar with the work of Arundhati Roy, on the other hand, and you find yourself drawn to her non-linear approach to Croll's chainable function assignment, you might be inclined to pick up The God of Small Things after reading this book.
Croll effortlessly explains Shakespeare's use of iambic pentameter, elucidating the structure and analyzing how the Bard both skillfully commands and breaks away from the poetic meter. In highlighting how Shakespeare is able to add dramatic emphasis by at key moments deviating from that poetic meter, Croll provides a useful connection between poetry and programming. Both languages have their formulas, and both can be experimented with once you've learned the rules.

2) Get more descriptive error message
except mysql.connector.Error as err:
    print("Unexpected error : ", format(err))

3) SQL standard requires single or double quotes for strings within statements, e.g. cursor.execute("SELECT '%s'", ("foo",))

The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1939) is one of many film adaptations of the classic 1831 Victor Hugo 'beauty and the beast' novel about a deaf, hunch-backed, outcast bellringer Quasimodo (Charles Laughton) in the Notre Dame Cathedral tower in medieval 15th century Paris, who fell in love with beautiful gypsy girl Esmeralda (18 year-old Maureen O'Hara in her first major US role). Due to prejudice and crazed jealousy, she was wrongfully framed for murder by the spitefully wicked and sinister Chief Justice Jean Frollo (Cecil Hardwicke). In a number of sublots, various attempts were made to save her from the gallows, by King of Beggars' Clopin (Thomas Mitchell), Esmeralda's poet-husband Pierre Gringoire (young radio actor Edmond O'Brien in his film debut), King Louis XI, and by Quasimodo himself.
This 1939 black and white RKO film version from German expressionistic director William Dieterle, the first made during the sound era, was rivaled only by the 1923 silent version starring Lon Chaney. [Note: In the first filmed version of Victor Hugo's novel The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1923), Lon Chaney was transformed into the deformed hunchbacked bellringer for the silent film with extensive, convincing makeup (a wig, puffy cheeks, false teeth, fake eye, etc.).]
Charles Laughton, in arguably his best acting performance of his career, was almost unrecognizable as the disfigured and mis-shapen, but sympathetic title character Quasimodo. Laughton's extensive make-up took 2 1/2 hours each day to apply. Laughton had also appeared in another Victor Hugo film adaptation, Les Miserables (1935). A Tale of Two Cities (1935), another Hugo-based film adaptation, closely rivaled this 1939 classic.
The historical costume adventure-drama (with a love quadrangle of sorts) also contained an element of horror - in the character of the deformed bellringer, although the real 'monster' in the movie was the manipulative, treacherous, scheming and villainous Chief Justice (Jean Frollo), who was possessed by crazed homicidal urges stemming from unrequited love. Hugo's book was very different from the film version due to Hollywood's Hays Code restrictions that wouldn't allow a member of the clergy (Archdeacon Claude Frollo) to be villainous, dogmatic, lust-motivated and murderous. To compensate, the negative traits of the religious Archdeacon in the novel were transferred to the secular character of the Chief Justice in the film - the Archdeacon's brother! And a typical 'happy ending' replaced the more somber ending of the novel.
The main thematic strand that ran throughout the film was the conflict between the changing world of modernity, intellectual reason and enlightened progress vs. religious superstition, ignorance, prejudice and the old order. There were striking contrasts between the haves (the nobility and corrupt ruling class) and the have-nots (the common people and the outcast gypsies, lower-class beggars and thieves) - some of whom had formed their own united 'Guild.'
There were also a few prominent dualities in the film:
the Kings (King Louis XI, the 'King' of Fools, and the self-proclaimed 'King' of the Beggars)
the two "Frollo" brothers (the white-clothed and good Archdeacon, and the black-clad evil Chief Justice)
the sacred 'sanctuary' space of the cathedral and the dangerous, depraved real-world outside
the "pretty ugliness" of both Esmeralda and the pure-hearted bellringer
the two "monsters" (the Hunchback and the 'monstrous' evil-hearted character of Chief Justice Frollo)
and the 'kangaroo court' trials and tests of guilt or innocence (Gringoire's 'bell-boy' test, Quasimodo's sentencing before a deaf Judge, and Esmeralda's 'trial by ordeal')
the two public punishments (Quasimodo's Christ-like flogging and Esmeralda's near-hanging)
the two daggers (Esmeralda's and the King's)
the gargoyles and bells - Quasimodo's two groups of friends
Budgeted at somewhere between $1.8 and $2.5 million (and with domestic revenue of $3.27 million), it was one of the biggest productions of its era. (It was RKO's second-most expensive film to date, topped only by the same year's Gunga Din (1939)). The sets were imposing, the cast was first rate, and the script (screenplay by Sonya Levien and adaptation by Bruno Frank) was engrossing. Matte artist Chesley Bonestell created the extraordinary matte paintings used in the film to recreate Notre Dame Cathedral and medieval Paris. The 190 foot tall replica of Notre Dame Cathedral itself (supplemented with matte paintings), was constructed at the RKO Ranch in the San Fernando Valley in Southern California, at a cost of $250,000. The film's script - written with the backdrop of war in Europe (and the Nazi invasion of Poland in 1939 and the persecution of Jews) - made timely parallels between the ostracized Jews and the race of mistreated gypsies (Romani peoples), and dramatically showed the schism between the two socio-economic classes in Paris (the 'haves' and the 'have-nots').
Masterful scenes included the sweeping crowd scenes outside the Notre Dame Cathedral, the "King of Fools" celebration, the military processions, and the deformed hunchback's thrilling and daring rescue of condemned-to-die gypsy Esmeralda from being hanged on a scaffold, by swinging to her on a rope and whisking her back to Notre Dame, while crying "Sanctuary, Sanctuary." Also remembered earlier was Esmeralda's merciful offering of water to Quasimodo after a brutal public flogging in the church square, Quasimodo's pouring a bucket of molten metal from the mouths of gargoyles onto rampaging Parisian peasants from high atop Notre Dame to protect Esmeralda, and the bellringer's heartbreaking closing line next to one of his "friends" - a stone gargoyle in the belltower: "Why was I not made of stone like thee?"
It was remade as Notre Dame de Paris (1957, Fr.) with Anthony Quinn and Gina Lollobrigida in the title roles, and there were numerous TV movies (1976, 1982, 1986, and 1997). Also, Disney released a dark and adult-oriented animated musical in 1996 with an Oscar-nominated score by Alan Menken and Stephen Schwartz.
The year 1939 has been called the "greatest year in film history" by film buffs, movie historians, and critics, chiefly due to the inordinate number of classic films. Some of the greatest films ever made, including this one, were released in 1939, including Gone With the Wind, Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, Ninotchka, Stagecoach, The Wizard of Oz and Wuthering Heights. In France, both Marcel Carné's Daybreak (aka Le Jour Se Lève) and Jean Renoir's The Rules of the Game (considered by some to be the greatest film of all-time, but banned during the German occupation) were released. Other major classic films in 1939 included Beau Geste, Dark Victory, Destry Rides Again, Love Affair (later remade as An Affair to Remember), Only Angels Have Wings, Gunga Din, Midnight, Of Mice and Men, The Women, Young Mr. Lincoln, and many more.
It was no wonder then, that the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences (AMPAS) was unable to nominate every deserving role. The Academy neglected this film's two main lead roles for Oscar nominations: Charles Laughton as the deformed Quasimodo and Maureen O'Hara as Esmeralda. The film had only two nominations and no wins for Best Sound and Best Score (Alfred Newman).
The Opening Title Credits and Prologue:
The two opening title pages of the credits announced: "RKO Radio Pictures, Inc. presents Victor Hugo's Immortal Classic The Hunchback of Notre Dame" - to the sound of the Notre Dame Cathedral's bell ringing.
The film's scrolling prologue described the historical background: the Hundred Years' War (1337 to 1453), between France and England) had just ended:
"With the end of the 15th century, the Middle Ages came to a close. Europe began to see great changes. France, ravaged by a hundred years of war, at last found peace. The people under Louis XI felt free to hope again ~ to dream of progress. But superstition and prejudice often stood in the way, seeking to crush the adventurous spirit of man."
[Note: The French monarch at the end of the 15th century was King Louis XI, who ruled from 1461-1483 AD.]
The New Invention - The Printing Press:
In the opening scene set at a print shop in the late Middle Ages in the year 1482, some of the major characters were introduced - including Louis XI, King of France (Harry Davenport) and his racist and superstitious advisor - Chief Justice of Paris, Jean Frollo (Cecil Hardwicke). They both expressed their opposing views on the progress afforded by Gutenberg's revolutionary printing press in the shop (developed in a commercial form by 1450 AD), owned by printer Master Fisher (Charles Halton). Their views regarding the new invention highlighted the difference of opinion between one member of the enlightened king in the ruling class, and another representative who was opposed to the repercussions of a cultural and social revolution that undoubtedly would occur with the spread of knowledge:
King Louis XI: (listening to the bells of Notre Dame) "I've never heard a more beautiful Angelus. Who is the bellringer of Notre Dame?
Printer: "Quasimodo, Your Majesty. The people simply call him the Hunchback."
King Louis XI: "Quasimodo. What an odd name. And now, Master Fisher, let's see what reason my High Justice had for asking me to come to your shop. What do you call this apparatus?"
Printer: "The German inventor, Gutenberg, calls it a printing press, Your Majesty."
King: Louis XI: "What is it for?"
Printer: "To print books, Your Majesty."
King Louis XI: "For whom?"
Printer: "For the people. They will learn to read when they can get books. I can print a volume, like this one, in a few weeks, and quite inexpensively."
King Louis XI: "Imagine, Frollo, a few weeks. When I ordered my prayer book, it took them years to copy it out and cost me a fortune. This is more beautiful than the printed book. Nevertheless, the printing press is a miracle."
Frollo: "A horrifying miracle."
King Louis XI: "Horrifying? This small press?"
Frollo: "Small things have a way of overmastering the great. 'The Nile rat kills the crocodile.' This small press can destroy a kingdom."
King Louis XI: "Oh, come, come, my High Justice, don't exaggerate. What is that?"
Printer: "It is the first page of a new book, Your Majesty."
King Louis XI: "Let me see it. On the Freedom of Thought. Who wrote it?"
Printer: "Pierre Gringoire."
King Louis XI: "Gringoire? Who is he?"
Printer: "A French poet, Your Majesty."
Frollo: "A heretic, sire. To spread him is to communicate disease."
King Louis XI: "How do you know? It may be a great blessing to France if people can get books and learn to read. To me, it's a new form of expression of thought. Out there is the old form. All over France, in every city, there stand cathedrals like this one, triumphal monuments of the past. They tower over the homes of our people like mighty guardians, keeping alive the invincible faith of the Christians. Every arch, every column, every statue is a carved leaf out of our history. A book in stone, glorifying the spirit of France. The cathedrals are the handwriting of the past. The press is of our time, and I won't do anything to stop it, Frollo."
Frollo: "Sire, we must break the press and hang the printer. For between them, they will destroy our old and holy order."
King Louis XI: "No, I'm not such a fool."
Frollo: "I, for my part, will protect France from these printed books, as I will protect it from witches, sorcerers and gypsies, the foreign race that is overrunning all of Europe."
The benevolent and kindly King was impressed by the miraculous invention, a sign of the transition from the Middle Ages into the Renaissance. The press would drastically eliminate the time-consuming, laborious, hand-copying method of printing, decrease the cost of books, increase the dissemination of printed materials and the need for literacy, and create a demand for learning. However, the anti-progressive, close-minded and Machiavellian Frollo was suspicious of the printing press and uninterested in offering the Parisian people "freedom of thought." The bigoted Chief Justice not only condemned the device for threatening "the holy order," but also opposed heresy. He was prejudicially-supportive of the persecution of undesirable "foreign" gypsies in Paris and proposed treating them as outcasts and eradicating them:
Gypsies Denied Permission to Enter Paris' Gates:
Throngs of people were seen entering Paris' gates in the medieval 15th century, including gypsies and other migrants who were held back and whipped into submission. A gypsy father with his family in a horse-drawn cart inquired of one of the Royal Guards why they were not permitted entry, when others were allowed:
Royal Guard: "Because no gypsies can enter Paris any longer without a permit. It's the new law...You're gypsies. Foreigners."
Gypsy: "If the others can enter, why can't we?"
Royal Guard: "They are Frenchmen. You are gypsies. Foreigners."
Gypsy: "Foreigners! You came yesterday. We come today."
The gypsy rightfully pointed out the discrepancy that in earlier waves of immigration, the current Frenchmen were once the foreigners. While the interrogation was taking place, a young, pretty gypsy girl (later identified as Esmeralda (Maureen O'Hara)), surreptitiously snuck in, but was chased through the crowd. In the chaos, another young girl named Helene (Angela Mulinos) screamed and fell into the arms of her Grandmother (Gisela Werbisek), fearful and superstitious that she had crossed paths with the Hunchback. She was advised: "Go home quickly, and light the candle." Another woman stated that the Hunchback was "possessed."
The Fools' Day Celebration:
Parisians (including many thieves and beggars) were beginning to celebrate Fools' Day in medieval 15th century Paris with the crowning of a King. [Note: In medieval times, the Feast of Fools occurred on New Year's Day, January 1st, although obviously, the film was portraying a summer-time event.] Crowds roasted a huge pig and gorged themselves on the meat, as others frolicked, played instruments, caroused, drank and danced in the street. Some observed acrobats on a stage, and other contortionists and jugglers. Unknowingly, some in the crowd became victims of pickpockets.
A royal box was set up where the King, his elderly Doctor (Etienne Girardot), one of his noblemen (Fritz Leiber) and Frollo watched the proceedings. After observing an acrobat (James Fawcett) balancing himself on a large ball, a humorous argument ensued between the King and the nobleman about whether the Earth was round or flat. The nobleman started the discussion by calling the acrobat an idiot: "He has heard it rumored that the Earth is round and is attempting to walk to the Indies - the idiot." In contrast, the King was in agreement with "famous geographers and mathematicians" who theorized that the world was round. However, Frollo dismissed the idea that the foolish Christopher Columbus ("the laughing stock of the court of Spain") had sailed in a western direction to reach the Indies. The Doctor also kept insisting that the world was flat: "The Earth isn't round. It's flat....I've observed it in all my travels over Europe - it's flat. Everywhere it's flat!"
As part of the festivities and proceedings, poor and unpaid street poet, playwright, actor and activist Pierre Gringoire (Edmond O'Brien), was preparing the performance of a stage play in the square with his acting troupe, including a Grim Reaper figure. He rhythmically beat on a drum to emphasize each line of a poetic proclamation that he was reciting:
"The old can never last. The new is claiming its place. It's foolish to cling to the past. Believe in the future's face. It pains me to relate that death, Is the fate of noble and peasant, alike. You are born in a womb. And end in a tomb."
In the crowd (some of whom wore masks), the self-proclaimed 'King' of the Beggars Clopin (Thomas Mitchell) was determined to prevent the play from distracting 'business' for the beggars. Gringoire continued to enlighten the ignorant populace: "You rest and live, and rest again. Beware you do not live in vain." Clopin mockingly interjected: "And if you eat too much you throw it up again!" The crowd roared with laughter at the joke, as Gringoire responded that he was devoted to truth: "You stupid, ignorant drunkards, you. I offer you truth!" One of the crowd members shouted back: "We don't want your truth!" Gringoire was further ridiculed and the show was interrupted and broken up by the followers of Clopin, who threw garbage at the stage.
A call came from one of Clopin's followers to select, crown and proclaim a King of Fools for the Feast of Fools - "We will now choose the King of Fools. Applicants come forth. Men, women. The ugliest face wins the crown. Ugly faces!" Nearby, King Louis XI of France intoned:
"The ugly is very appealing to man...It's instinct. One shrinks from the ugly, yet wants to look at it. There's a devilish fascination in it. We extract pleasure from horror."
Esmeralda's Sensual Dancing:
After managing to sneak into Paris, pretty gypsy Esmeralda (Maureen O'Hara) was dancing with a tambourine before the mesmerized and appreciative audience (including the King, Frollo, and Gringoire), even though gypsies were being persecuted and considered outcasts (and prohibited from entering Paris). The King noticed the transfixed 'interest' of the mob of bystanders (seen in a tracking scan to the left) who were stunned at the dancer - she exemplified supremely beautiful 'ugliness' - according to one woman who ironically exclaimed:
"That's the prettiest ugliness I've ever seen."
A Captain of the King's forces (later identified as Captain Phoebus) was also spellbound by the dancer: "That girl, what a beauty!" The King was impressed by her sensual dancing with a tambourine, and mentioned: "The people seem to like her, and so do I." To compensate her, he asked to borrow a fivre coin from his Physician, although Frollo snidely remarked: "She's a gypsy, sire." The admiring and enchanted King responded without bias: "Who cares about her race? She's pretty." Esmeralda put the King's coin thrown to her into her bodice.
King Louis XI: (To Frollo) "Doesn't she make your pulse beat faster? What about you, Doctor?"
The King's Physician: "I'm a widower four times, sire, but I could begin all over again."
As she danced, one ominous-looking eye peered out to secretly watch her from under the stage and she shrunk back in horror: "That eye, staring at me," as various onlookers commented: "It's an animal. It's a fiend." It was the first hideous view of misshapen and deafened Quasimodo (Charles Laughton), the ugly hunchback bellringer of Notre Dame - only part of his deformed face was visible.
The Crowning of Quasimodo:
Quasimodo was selected as the most likely 'ugly' candidate and led to the stage by a throng of people: ("Make him the King," cried one female audience member). When he thrust his head through an opening in a backdrop, the first full view of Quasimodo's face, the beggars exalted him as the undisputed winner of the title "King of Fools" ("Well, Quasimodo, we knew you were ugly, but didn't know you were so ugly"). He was presented with a belled joker's jester crown, a robe of rags and a scepter. He accepted the strange adulation and was paraded around on the mob's shoulders, as the rabble sang:
"King Quasimodo, Quasi-Quasimodo. Quasimodo, ruler of fools we bow. All you rabble, scum and scavengers of France. Mark you the fool with crown upon his ugly brow. Hail to the idiot king. Shout and sing Quasimodo, Quasimodo. King of the Fools is Quasimodo. Hail to the king. King of the Fools. Cock-a-doodle-doo. Cock-a-doodle-doo. Quasimodo. Cock-a-doodle-doo, hey.."
Gringoire tried to dissuade the crowd: "I am the true King of Fools. I battle for beauty, and the ugly gets crowned. What greater fool can there be than I?"
After the crowning, as Quasimodo was made a public spectacle through the streets of Paris, Frollo - who was Quasimodo's guardian and adoptive father figure, intervened and rode up on horseback. He shamed Quasimodo for participating in the ridiculing, and ordered the bellringer to follow him back to Notre Dame. Meanwhile, some of the royal guards identified Esmeralda as an outcast who had illegally entered the city without a permit. She fled from a couple of soldiers when confronted and threatened with eviction - she sought refuge in the Cathedral, where Frollo's brother Claude Frollo (Walter Hampden), the Archdeacon of Paris, offered her the church's protection: ("Church is sanctuary for all...The power of the law ends at this threshold").

Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) category - recent case-law
Following our review at the end of 2015, this article will discuss some of the case law relevant to Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) visa applicants. Information about the recent changes to the rules and the most recent statistics for entrepreneur applications can be found in other articles.
AH (BANGLADESH) & ORS v SSHD [2015] EWCA Civ 1071
This was an application for permission to appeal to the Court of Appeal where Lord Justice Elias considered the retrospective applicability of the changes to evidential flexibility. The Appellant had applied before the change in the rules which allowed evidential flexibility to be exercised where information is missing from a specified document. Elias LJ noted that the new provision would have been of assistance to the Appellant, but concluded that the Rule could not have retrospective effect. With some sympathy for the Appellant the application for permission was dismissed, but the Judge encouraged the Home Office to reconsider their decision, notwithstanding the refusal of permission.
TA (NIGERIA) & ORS v SSHD [2015] EWCA Civ 1235
In an application for permission to appeal from the Court of Appeal, Mr Justice Henderson found that there is an overriding duty for the Secretary of State to act fairly, but that the threshold for establishing the unlawful exercise of a discretion is a high one and therefore the standard paragraphs which are included on refusal letters referring to reasons why evidential flexibility under paragraph 245AA has not been exercised, are lawful.
This, however, was in a specific case where there were a large number of deficiencies in an application. In many refusal decisions, the Home Office standard paragraph on evidential flexibility is quoted inappropriately, misquoted, or incorrectly applied in cases where it has clearly been copied and pasted onto a refusal, rather than having been given any proper consideration by a caseworker.
NAWAZ AND OTHERS [2016] CSIH 6
The Appellant applied for leave to remain as a Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) and relied on funds which were held in her husband's account which he had made available to her. Her husband was a Dependant on the Appellant's application. The Court concluded that Paragraph 245AA was of no assistance to the Appellant and then went on to consider the public law duty of fairness.
Their Lordships found that however detailed and prescriptive a policy might be, a decision maker must always be open to the facts and circumstances of the particular case. As a general rule there is no unfairness in refusing an application under the PBS rules which does not meet the evidential requirements but the general rule can be overcome in the circumstances of the case, for example where the SSHD is responsible for the problem, where the decision is perverse or in defiance of common sense.
HK (BANGLADESH) [2015] EWCA Civ 963
This was the decision on an application for permission to appeal to the Court of Appeal, following the dismissal of an appeal in the Upper Tribunal. The Appellant had been refused leave as a Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) migrant as the specified documents submitted with the application intended to demonstrate that the business was trading did not meet the evidential requirements. Lord Justice Tomlinson found the 'Second Appeals test' had not been met, because this was a matter of fact which the Immigration Tribunal must decide and decisions of fact are not an area which the Court of Appeal will intervene.
MH (BANGLADESH) & ANR v SSHD [2015] EWCA Civ 1442
The Appellant had applied for leave to remain as a Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) migrant, relying on funds from a third party. The letter from the third party's bank did not meet the specified evidence requirements as there was information missing. There were also problems with the evidence submitted to meet the English language requirements. Lord Justice Moore-Bick granted permission to appeal on the basis that the funds were available in every real sense and that the evidential flexibility rules were engaged in relation to any defects in the evidence submitted.
MQ v SSHD [2015] EWCA Civ 726
This was a decision of Lady Justice Rafferty in the Court of Appeal. The Appellant applied for leave to remain as a Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) migrant and did not include all the specified documents with his application, however, he wrote to the Home Office requesting permission to send further documents before a decision had been made. The Home Office invited him to submit the documents within a period of 7 days. Some of the evidence post-dated the date of the application. The Application was subsequently refused without the additional documents having been considered. Lady Justice Rafferty confirmed in refusing permission to appeal to the Court of Appeal that documents have to be in existence at the date of application. The Home Office letter agreeing to accept documents sent within 7 days did not amount to an agreement to consider the documents or to dis-apply the requirement that documents must be sent with the application.
SI (Bangladesh) v SSHD [2015] EWCA Civ 737
This was an application for permission to appeal to the Court of Appeal. The Appellant applied for leave to remain as a Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) and submitted bank statements up to two weeks before the date of the application with a fluctuating level of funds. The Upper Tribunal Judge was not satisfied on the balance of probabilities that the funds were available on the date of application, even though the specified evidence was provided. There was no discussion of the relevant policy guidance and requests for further documents under the genuine entrepreneur test. Lord Justice Richards refused to consider any new evidence and refused permission to appeal.

As a user I would like to query all constraint violations in WDQS even if the item is not visited by logged in users, so I can find violations and fix them.
At the moment constraint checks are only run when a logged in user visits an item or if it is explicitly checked via API.
Therefore only some constraint violations are query able in WDQS.
To be able to query all constraint violations we need to run constraints checks on all existing items regularly.
• Addshore added a parent task: T192567: Expose constraint violations to WDQS.
• Addshore removed a subtask: T204022: Add functionality to run QualityConstraint checks on an entity after every edit.

Week 7 of the Raja Yoga training at the Ananda center. Focus on energization.
In this session, I discover a process for overcoming procrastination — a process that turns out to be enormously energizing.
Some of the nicest instruction I've ever seen on the Yoga "twist" pose.
The important thing is for your spine to lift up as you twist. Otherwise, it's hard to breathe.
Cross your foot over the bottom knee only if your hips are level in that position.
Place your foot on the ground in front of, inside of your other knee, rather than crossing over it.
As you inhale, lift your spine upward. As you exhale, twist your lower body (pelvis mostly), keeping your head and eyes to the front.
Inhale and lift upwards again. As you exhale, twist your mid-body (torso), keeping your head and eyes to the front.
Inhale and lift upwards again. As you exhale, twist your head and neck.
Stay there a few breaths, relaxing into it. The reverse in stages, inhaling and lifting upward, then exhaling to unwind your head and neck, torso, and lower body, in that order.
Maha Mudra is where you sit with one leg straight out in front, with the other foot tucked in. It's like a meditation pose on one side, and a leg stretch on the other.
If you put your straight leg out to the side, you work the groin and hips more. With it straight ahead, you work the hamstrings and glutes more.
The important point is to lift your heart upwards to the sky, and lead with the heart as you stretch into position.
You can bring arms overhead and use their weight to intensify the stretch, or bring them in from the side and glide them down your leg, whichever is more comfortable.
After you get into your fully-extended position with your head up and heart forward, you can relax your head and neck to sink into the pose.
The root words of enthusiasm are "in divinity" (which I would also translate as "divinely inspired").
That was a good point. It helps to explain why I love being enthusiastic! And naturally, when you are extremely enthusiastic, you are also highly energized.
But the question, of course, is how to tap into that enthusiasm for things you must do, as opposed to things you want to do. As you'll see, I got a number of great answers, and got even more in the days that followed.
Ok. I'm still having a hard time with this one. But if it's true, it's an important concept to grasp. And there is reasonable evidence for its truth.
Item #1: Some people accomplish great things. Others barely get off the ground, despite similarities in every obvious respect.
Item #2: In the book, Autobiography of a Yogi, most of the experiences were foreign to me, on first reading. But after a lot of processing in various forms of training, nearly 2/3 were quite familiar to me! All of those experiences — and most of the siddhis (internal powers) possessed by Yogis and masters of many Oriental arts are nothing if not some form of mental energy.
So while I'm still struggling to understand this concept, there is a reasonable basis for assuming it to be true.
The fundamental unit of energy is the photon — basically a vibration with zero matter, which allows it to travel at the speed of light.
Thoughts are photon-energy, too, so thoughts can have an effect.
Again, I'm still struggling with this bit. I'm not sure that syllogism actually holds, logically. And what sort of effect can a photon have, anyway! But especially after my experience "energizing away" procrastination, and feeling the resulting energization, I'm more inclined to give this concept some credence.
It occurs to me that when you first start the process of inner transformation, it takes a lot of discipline to sit down for your practice. Thankfully, I'm past that point, but that has created a new problem.
I love it when I'm in my practice, connecting and being inspired. And I love it when I'm working on my books, recording the results of those inspirations.
But then comes a day when I need to pay bills, do some cleaning, and do other chores. On those days, I'm so fatigued, I can barely get out of bed!
Keshama: Think of yourself as "A joyful __X__", where you fill in the blank with what it is you need to do. For example, "I am a joyful bill payer".
Sita: Do the Kapalpathi breath (described next) to get more energy for the task.
Rammurti: Any time you make a statement about yourself, add "I choose to…", either mentally or out loud. So in response to "How are you?", you might respond, "I choose to be (good/great/what have you)".
I'm extremely disciplined, about anything I'm enthusiastic about.
I'm not very disciplined about things I'm not enthusiastic about.
My sports, music, professional, and spiritual activities attest to the first two points. But of course it is the third that needs some work!
I choose to be highly enthusiastic.
I choose to be extremely disciplined about anything I'm enthusiastic about.
I choose to be not very disciplined about things I'm not enthusiastic about.
This is a great pranayama technique. I wrote about it in the Asana plus Pranayama workshop that Swamiji Asanganand gave. (That's where I learned it first, and the instruction was terrific. But I learned a few things this evening, as well.
At the start of the day, I began to see how the anti-procrastination suggestions could be put together. By the end of the day (after sleeping a few times, so I was both fully rested and inspired), I began to see exactly how it could be done.
On Saturday, the thoughts came together, big time. By mid-day, I saw how to put together a solid protocol.
Did the practice Saturday, and had a number of additional insights in the process, so I spent most of Saturday writing it up. Got a little bit of other work done in other areas, too, but not much. That night as I went to sleep, I ran some more affirmations with respect to cleaning (as something of a continuation of the practice earlier in the day, rather than as a new practice).
On Sunday, the effects were noticeable. And incredible! A whole new me! I could not wait to get to the bill paying, and do some cleaning, and investigate insurance options (the major chores of the moment). I mean, I simply could not wait. And doing them, I was fully energized and enthused! I felt as connected, as motivated, and as happy as I have ever been, at any time in my life!
I decided to call the procedure the Anti-Procrastination Protocol, but so far it looks to be good for all kinds of internal changes.
After I've been writing for a while, I get tired. I tend to take a break, have something to eat, maybe take a nap. But it's difficult to take a nap if you're at work! And if I get to the point that I need to take a job once again, it's going to be important to work on someone else's more normal schedule — even (or especially) if it's a short-term contract.
Just figured out why I like computer solitaire so much.
Growing up, of course, my mom used to play solitaire with a deck of cards. As much as I liked card games, I never really got into solitaire, myself — until computers came along.
These days, there are a number of computer solitaire games where (I'm guessing) the computer makes moves backwards to set up the position, and where the number of moves it makes determines the complexity of the resulting game. The thing about those games is that, if you're clever enough, it seems that you can always win.
The first step in solving those puzzles is to figure out the principles you need to follow to be successful. The second step is, when playing the game, to apply the principles in the right order for the current game, in order to win it. The good ones make it easy to go back to the beginning and try again, so it's no trouble to do that.
So now I see why the computer solitaire games are so addictive! It's for the same reason that my Yoga & Meditation practice is so addictive, and that running was so addictive — endorphins! Or something like that, at least. At rate, that little burst of pleasure is the nature of the addiction!
Interestingly, now that I've recognized that, I also notice that I get a major burst when a game turns out to be difficult to solve. As with different forms of the game I've played over years, it's very difficult for a while, but then it starts becoming easier. After I've played for several months I get to a point where (as now) I win most every game. Once I'm in that state, the games that are really interesting are the ones that are hard to solve!
There is no more frustrating game in the world than golf. I mean, on TV it looks so easy. But in the tournaments that most people watch, the TV camera is focusing on 7 or 8 who are leading the pack — in other words, the best of the best.
But every once in while they'll need some filler, and they'll show someone in the back of the pack. Or you can watch early in the broadcast, before the leaders tee off. Or you can watch a small tournament a couple of weeks before a major. Then you'll see a game that looks recognizable — complete with a world of mistakes.
And these are professionals, mind you. People who spend anywhere from 6 to 8 hours a day on their game. And it's hard for them, never mind how hard it is for you.
There is a reason for that! Someone once analyzed the way the joints move in the golf swing, and identified 19 different degrees of freedom — that's 19 things that all have to occur in just the right sequence, to get the result you want. But we're just getting started! In addition to those 19 degrees of freedom, there are half a dozen degrees of freedom in the equipment you're using (length of club, type of grip, loft of club, etc.). There are more degrees of freedom in how you set up to the ball (ball forward or back, closer to the ball or farther from it, …) and how big a swing you take. Then there are is the lie (uphill, downhill, sidehill, short grass, long grass, sand, dirt) and the landing area (uphill, downhill, fairway, green, or rough), and finally the weather (cold, hot, windy, direction of wind, dew, …).
In all, there are 54 different variables that determine the outcome of a shot when you're playing the game. And if you hold the external variables to a minimum by going to the driving range, you're still dealing with 24 or more!
In short, repeatable results are at a premium! So the game tends to be pretty darn frustrating. The solution: The Orbital Lift! Keeps you sane, man.
I was a dancer for a while in college. And when Irish dance became popular, I was all for it! But it's something like golf, in that it can be really tricky to master the steps.
I did it for 5 years, and got to where I could even fool some Irish people into thinking I knew what I was doing. I saw a lot of people come and go during that time, too.
I noticed was that I could tell pretty quickly who was going to be around for a while, and who was going to get frustrated and give up. The "tell" for people who stick with it was that, when they screwed up, they laughed!
Now partly, the laughter comes from an internal confidence. You know you can do complex physical movements, so when one seems impossibly difficult, it's so incongruous that you laugh. That confidence, in turn, suggests a track record of success in some other endeavor — the foundation for the confidence. So the expectation of success, coupled with the giggle you get when you mess up, keeps you coming back.
For those that have not mastered some endeavor that gives them confidence, or who find failure to be frustrating, the Orbital Lift represents a potential rescue!
I've always had the laughter response, when dancing, because I know I'm good at it. So that has never been a problem for me.
But I used to get immensely frustrated when I couldn't get a bolt started without dropping it. At first, it wouldn't bother me. But after getting tired and dropping tools or parts a dozen times, the failure to get things to work bothered me a lot.
I'm happy to report that Orbital Lift "works a charm" (as the Irish say), in that circumstance, as well. As with golf, traffic, or anything else that tends to be frustrating, the Orbital Lift keeps you sane!


Happy Sunday makers! It's been such a busy, happy week around the studio and I'm thrilled by the response to our new sewing pattern, the Kelly Anorak. My favourite thing to hear from you is "I've been looking for this pattern for so long!", and we heard that a lot over the last few days. It means we're serving you the way I dream and hope to, which is finding those holes in your closet and filling them with thoughtful, wearable garments that make you feel great.
It's also Canadian Thanksgiving, and I am spending it with a group of friends and Harry while Guillaume is in France for the weekend. I'm spatchcocking a turkey for the second time (I dry brined it last night) and I have a feeling it will be my best ever. I hope you're having a wonderful, productive and/or lazy weekend as well!
A few Kelly tester coats have been posted – I love Carolyn's raincoat version (she made it out of a shower curtain!) and Heather's everyday twill jacket.
Autumn exploded all over Erica's gorgeous dress.
Jenny's dirndl dress is deeeeelightful.
This Clare Coat from Lauren is one of the most beautiful I've ever seen. Seriously, go check out how exquisitely made it is!
Large cups rejoice! Norma at Orange Lingerie just extended her sizing of the Bolyston bra!
Peter's designer inspired poplin shirt (and styling!) is wonderful.
A fall inspired blazer from Lori.
Sew DIY totally reminded me how much I still want to make the Tea House Dress by Sew House Seven – isn't it beautiful in red?
Speaking of Sew House Seven; their new sweater pattern looks soooo cozy.
This kente cloth off-the-shoulder top from Sew Urbane makes my eyes happy.
Some pretty indigo dying results from our Kelly Anorak namesake over on Cut Cut Sew.
Everything Mainely Dad makes is wonderful, but this fur backpack takes the cake.
I want to increase my knitting speed so I am going to take this continental knitting class over on Craftsy.
Really inspired by the 67 Percent Project on Refinery 29.
Want to support a great cause? Help this high school sewing class get equipment!
Solange just released my new favourite record and it equal parts sonic ear candy and weighty, important messaging. And this directed video is probably the most stylish thing I've seen all year.
