During the ceremony she recalled her first trip to Hollywood as a tourist.
According to IOL.com she said: "I used two rolls of film on just these stars alone, and I was so excited to be here, and I had my fingers crossed really tightly that one day I could participate in some small way in this medium that I love so much.
"But I got to tell you that I never ever imagined a day like this or that I would be invited to be part of this legacy."
Zellweger's new husband Kenny Chesney did not attend the ceremony as he is currently on tour.

As of 0.5.0, the new address format is used internally and the .address returned from PrivateKey has changed to the new format.

While I'm aware that this most likely not possible but I wished to ask the more knowledgeable people. Is colony Seaports possible?
I believe there was a mod that reduced the leveling range to just the City walls. I haven't seen it in awhile though. Maybe someone could add the seaport as a building and make build spots where the seaports are on the colony.
I'll see if i can find it.
This seems to have promise but i cannot test it right now.
Did you ever get to check that, Darhagonable. I'll be able to check next week.
Oh, I didn't see it before now. I will check it tomorrow when I get back home.


Kerala-based Kalyan jewellers has announced that later this month, it is going to foray in Qatar. It will be opening seven showrooms in Doha.
All seven stores will be opened in a single day later in the month and they will be inaugurated by the brand ambassador of the brand – Amitabh Bachchan. Other stars that will grace the launch ceremony are Nagarjuna, Prabhu Ganesan and Manju Warrier.
Since its launch in international operations, the brand has been steadily expanding its presence in the Gulf Cooperation Council. Over the past two years, the brand has opened over 40 showrooms in India and the GCC.
The jewellery firm had earlier made its entry into the GCC by launching six showrooms on a single day in UAE.


What do pandas, penguins, and hummingbirds all have in common? Not much, unless you happen to be familiar with the ongoing history of updates to Google's search algorithms. If you are, then you know that these three animals are also the names of updates to Google's popular search engine. These updates have gone a long way towards changing the way that Google ranks websites, and that in turn has had an impact on businesses around the world. After all, if a company has worked long and hard to develop its online presence and acquire a high ranking spot, that traffic is one of the more popular ways people are generating leads online.
Here's a quick look at the three major animal-themed Google updates that have been released, and what they could mean for your organization.
Panda was first released back in 2011. The purpose of Panda was (and still is) to identify sites with low quality or duplicate content, and to remove them from the upper-ranking spots on the search returns page. As such, Panda is basically a content quality filter. Anything that is automatically generated, or features articles or content that is redundant, uninformative, unspecific, or full of spelling, grammatical, or factual errors, could potentially fall under Panda's withering judgment. At the same time, sites that feature an overabundance of ads can also have their rankings slashed.
For many companies, Panda was the first in a series of wake-up calls warning them that the entire search engine optimization (SEO) game was about to change. That wasn't necessarily a bad thing. After all, companies should strive to feature original, high-quality content with a minimum of distracting advertisements if they want to impress and retain their customers. Panda simply made it a bit easier for Internet users to do what they've always done in the past – avoid sites that don't have what they want. Of course, before Panda, many users would have to discover for themselves that a site was low-quality before deciding to avoid it in the future. Now, Panda figures that out for them, and hides the sites in question so far down on the ranking page that no one will ever find them.
This only really becomes a problem for legitimate sites that rely on duplicate content for a reason (such as e-commerce sites that often recycle product descriptions), and for sites that may only have one or two low-quality pages, but have their entire site penalized regardless. At the same time, once a site has been identified and come under condemnation from Panda, it can be next to difficult, yet possible, to recover your rankings.
While Panda may have been an attempt to remove low-quality sites from top search rankings, Penguin, which was released in 2012, takes a more aggressive stance against sites that intentionally utilize unlawful "black-hat" techniques. Black-hat SEO uses unethical spam-related methods to increase search engine ranking. These techniques began to be used back in the early 1990s, and by the mid-1990s, they had become so prevalent that the effectiveness of search engines was substantially reduced.
Modern search engines include warnings about the use of such techniques in their terms and conditions, but many sites still rely on black-hat SEO to drive traffic. Penguin is an update that actively locates these sites and reduces their ranking accordingly. Companies whose sites are penalized by Penguin need to turn away from their black-hat tactics and work to earn links organically. Real, high-quality links will help improve a site's Author Rank, which will help the site score higher in search rankings.
The most recent of Google's algorithm updates, Hummingbird takes a step back from the idea of penalizing, and instead works toward improving search returns in general. By using a more complex understanding of human language, Hummingbird reduces Google's dependency on keywords. Instead, it takes into account syntax, word order, and other possible variables in a search request. Thus, when an Internet user decides to search for "Home automation providers," they'll be more likely to be directed to a site for a legitimate company, rather than end up someplace completely unrelated, but just happens to also include those keywords. For businesses, this can be a real blessing. After all, the best that a company can hope for is to be connected with potential customers who are interested in their services. Of course, those businesses that attempt to take advantage of the system may find that it's gotten quite a bit harder to trick visitors into accessing their pages.

Initially you may feel that with the relatively modest heights at which most people ski, that the effects of altitude should not cause a problem with day to day skiing. This is substantially correct, but there are situations that you should be aware of, especially as more and more exotic and high altitude mountain ranges are opening up for snowsport oportunities (such as Gulmarg in India, which has lift access upto 4250m, and hiking opportunities many hundreds of meters higher). There are even more mainstream resorts such as Breckenridge in Colorado (skiing upto nearly 4000m) which could potentially pose some difficulties.
Unpleasant symptoms associated with altitude have been known to people living in high mountainous regions since at least the 16th century. However as early as 30BC Chinese histories talk of the greater and lesser headache mountains. Similar names have been given by the Tibetan people. Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS ) was fully described by Ravenhill in 1913 and largely forgotten until re-described by Charles Houston in 1946. AMS is associated with headache, nausea and vomiting. The symptoms come on gradually especially at the end of the day, and early signs can include irritability and intolerance of bright light. It should be pointed out that these symptoms are not specific for AMS.
Symptoms of AMS can appear as low as 2,500m and are common above 4,000m. Problems occur with rapid ascent to altitude especially for those staying high. Acclimatisation by a gradual increase in altitude along with going high then sleeping low is a wise precaution. You are unlikely to run into trouble if only spending an hour or two at altitude.
Physical fitness is no bar to the condition, indeed there is some suggestion that young people may be particularly prone. Previous experience at altitude may have some relevance – if you acclimatise well in your twenties this is likely still to be the case later in life. One difficulty is the unpredictability of the condition. There have been fatalities, albeit rare as low as 2,500m and conversely reports of older people performing well above 4,500m.
Standing on the crater summit of Chillán Volcano (3,122m) at sunset...not a good time to be loosing your head.
AMS has started to become relevant as many skiers are visiting high remote regions Such as in the Himalayas and Andean mountain ranges or spending several days at altitude when ski touring in the European Alps. If you suspect AMS there is one golden rule which is to lose height as soon as possible and not to press on. It goes without saying that there is less oxygen to breathe at 3,000m than at sea level.
Even without feeling ill with AMS, the lack of oxygen can have some effect on brain function. This may not be too important when cruising a gentle blue run but possibly highly relevant in a challenging couloir for example. Coupled with all this you should think about dehydration and diminished quality of sleep.
Visitors to high altitudes often have unrestful sleep because, and even at intermediate altitudes many peole suffer from periodic breathing. Periodic breathing, (which is effectively clusters of breaths separated by intervals of apnea (no breathing),occurs during 24% of all sleep at 2,440 meters, and profoundly effects the oxygenation of the blood. Sleep at altitude is also characterized by frequent wakening, and thus produces an unsatisfying sleep and contributes to daytime fatigue….this in turn can greatly effect performance and judgment in critical situations. As with the symptoms of AMS at intermediate altitudes, sleep can be expected to return to normal with acclimatization.
Only a small shortfall in fluid balance – say 1.5 litres can substantially reduce performance. When on a skiing holiday overindulgence in alcohol is common so you may start the day in a mildly dehydrated state. In addition to this there is further fluid loss from sweating and an increased breathing rate in dry air, which is exacerbated while skiing as we try to compensate for the reduced oxygen levels by breathing deeper and more frequenly. Putting all this together, a combination of breathing air which is short in oxygen as well as mild dehydration may be factors in reduced performance or even causing accidents, regardless of whether the skier is suffering from AMS.
There seems to be a widespread shortage of knowledge and information regarding dehydration and the effects of altitude. When skiing many people have only limited time so inevitably there are pressures which may result in questionable decisions. It is worth noting that there are of course other reasons for developing a headache and vomiting after a night out in a ski resort!


Child custody disputes can become very difficult for all parties involved. The argument over who gets custody becomes even more complex when it involves multiple jurisdictions. When parents separate, perhaps they want to move to another state or already have moved and wish to file for their divorce in that state.
The problem with this is determining which state has jurisdiction or the legal right to oversee the case. This will complicate matters more when both states are claiming jurisdiction over the child custody case. In order to resolve this issue, the law today gives jurisdiction to the home state of the child. Before delving deeper into the present day laws, it is important to understand the origins of the laws surrounding these jurisdictional issues.
When it comes to fighting for custody of your child as you attempt to prove home state jurisdiction to resolve your case, you'll need the experience and guidance of a San Diego family law attorney from Huguenor Mattis, A.P.C.. We can help walk you through what you will need to do and what you should know when entering into a jurisdictional dispute surrounding your child's custody arrangements.
In the past, there were many instances where parents were fighting for custody and would kidnap their children across state lines and attempt to find a different court to hear their case. In order to prevent these unlawful attempts from happening, the Uniform Law Commissions enacted the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction Act (UCCJA) in 1968, and to reinforce this more, the Parental Kidnapping Prevention Act (PKPA) in 1981.
However, there were issues found with the implementation of both of these, mainly in not providing the home state of the child first priority and there was no section regarding interstate enforcement of child custody orders. In order to answer the confusions of these two acts, the Uniform Law Commissions created the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act (UCCJEA) in 1997 to replace the UCCJA. The main thing this law did was to provide exclusive jurisdiction over child custody cases to the home state of the child.
What is Home State for A Child Custody Dispute?
When looking to make a determination around which state has the legal jurisdiction to decide the results of a child custody dispute, courts will need to figure out which state is the home state for the child. Home state is decided by seeing where the child has lived with either one parent or both for a period of six consecutive months directly preceding the commencement of the divorce proceedings. If the child is under six months old, courts will determine the home state to be the state in which the child has lived since birth. Once the court decides on the home state, that state will oversee the child custody dispute and have complete jurisdiction over the case.
How Can A San Diego Family Law Attorney At Huguenor Mattis, A.P.C. Help Me?
Making the determination of the home state of your child in a child custody case can be complicated and it is understandable if you are feeling overwhelmed with this dispute along with the other issues pertaining to your divorce proceedings. If you have moved or live in a different state from your former spouse and you are trying to gain custody of your child, you'll need the help of an experienced family law attorney from Huguenor Mattis, A.P.C. Contact our office today and learn more about what we can do going forward with resolving issues involving your child custody case and jurisdictional disputes. We can be reached at (858) 458-9500.

Q: Android AlarmManager starts ringing on wrong time I am trying to create an alarm application. I am getting the alarm time settings from the user using a time picker
I have studied the following comments but could not find a solution:
Alarm starts at the wrong time
AlarmManager fire at the wrong time
AlarmManager running at the wrong time
When I set the alarm time before the current time, it starts ringing immediately. However, if the alarm time is set after the current time, it works fine.
Following is my code...
calendar.set(
             calendar.get(Calendar.YEAR),
                   calendar.get(Calendar.MONTH),
                   calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH),
                   timePicker.getHour(),
                   timePicker.getMinute(),
                   0
           );
       AlarmManager alarmManager= (AlarmManager) getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
        Intent intent=new Intent(this, AlarmReceiver.class);
        PendingIntent pendingIntent=PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this,0,intent,0);
    alarmManager.set(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP,calendar.getTimeInMillis(),pendingIntent);

If the user sets the alarm after the current time, it works fine. However, if the time is set before the current time (for the upcoming day), the ring immediately starts.
Kindly help me resolve this. Thanks in advance!

A: From AlarmManager docs

If the stated trigger time is in the past, the alarm will be triggered immediately.

Your calendar is set to current day and hence the alarm is going off immediately when the time is set to before the current time. When using future dates get the calendar for that date and time and then set the alarm.

I am beginning to feel the absence of a cook during the past few days. She has gone on leave for a few weeks.
When the cook was present, I did not value her presence a great deal. So, one day last week when she went away after her work – not paying heed to my words to wait for a mechanic to attend to the TV – I seethed at her disobedience. I even thought I had enough of her.
The next morning as I was having my breakfast I got immersed in the taste of the food. Then gratitude and appreciation crept in – for the food and the person who made it so well. The disobedience of the cook no more mattered. My ego vanished and there was a new understanding.
Within a matter of a few hours, I was able to make the transition from being imprisoned in the cage of my ego to a state beyond the self, to the realm of the soul. From a state of siege, mistrust and defensiveness, I traveled the distance to freedom, expansiveness and trust.
My senses are the threshold to gratitude and happiness. When I let the wonder of every moment sink in through my senses, the presences fill me with completeness, making me awash with gratitude. When presences are experienced with appreciation, absences are rarely encountered.
On some days I wake up with feelings of unease. They are probably residues of the previous day's preoccupations mainly concerning office. Sometimes they linger through the day or for several days. Often I shake them up a bit during my runs, and allow newer thoughts and realities to take hold of me.
These days, however, I do not let worries cripple me. I am learning increasingly to hold and examine them closely to find out the messages embedded in them. Often solutions emerge when I observe them dispassionately, without dread, even with a tinge of love.
It makes sense to develop a healthy sense of companionship with worries and problems as they are offshoots of my life's longings. As I realize that pain and happiness are not deadly enemies but are part of a united and harmonious kaleidoscope of life, there is liberation born out of this understanding.
Yes, while there are those issues in the office that beg for attention and solution, there are also many gifts I am grateful for. We are getting known and keep getting business by word of mouth. Customers are delighted with what we do. And, we have a new office which we have taken a lot of care to design. It feels very good working from the new place. Then, there are the many people in the office who make good things happen.
The sense of incompleteness which cry for attention pertaining to the work we do, are only indicators of where I ought to focus my attention.
Getting our staff used to excellence in all they do is what I am here for. Excellence cannot be obtained through decrees, only by a new understanding and a state of being.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery's following words reminds me not to focus on too much of doing, but on being.
I create this longing for 'the immensity of the sea' by communicating endlessly about the vision, mission and values of the company. And about the stories of hope, aspirations and stretching that characterize our company. Surely, the brunt of my communication will revolve around offering services with a heart.
There is another thing I see myself communicating in everything I do and I am. That is the ability to demand higher standards from our teams.
It is very easy to let things drift in the office – like inattentive, self-absorbed parents who let their children run amok. It takes a lot of care, internal anchoring and discipline to demand higher standards.
Raising the standards for others in the organization cannot be stage managed. Nor can my ego dictate the terms of engagement. It is my state of being which I share with them with emotions and heart. And my effervescence and beliefs that others catch and hold.
Whether it is in dealing with a cook or the employees in my company there are two ways of declaring my presence to the world. One is through the limited, scheming ways of the ego. The other is through the spontaneous flow of thoughts and emotions springing from my depths. These find expression in every relationship I forge.
In that state, there is gratitude for the way things are. Before that, there is awareness.

Everything to Know About Matt James, the First Black Bachelor
Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images
James says his casting is a "step in the right direction" for the franchise.
By Christopher Rosa
The Bachelor kicks off 2021 with much-needed good news. Matt James will make his debut on January 4 as the first Black Bachelor in the franchise's two-decades-long history.
James was officially announced as the next lead June 12, 2020, on Good Morning America, where he gave a brief interview saying he thinks his casting is a "step in the right direction" for Bachelor Nation. The show has been criticized for a while now for its lack of diversity, but those conversations reached a fever pitch last summer in light of the Black Lives Matter protests happening around the country. Fans started a campaign, aptly titled the Bachelor Diversity Campaign, to advocate for more people of color on the show—both in front of and behind the camera. Naming the first Black Bachelor is certainly working toward the campaign's goal.
Here's everything you need to know about Matt James, the first Black Bachelor:
He's a 29-year-old real estate broker, entrepreneur, and community organization founder. Originally from North Carolina, James attended Wake Forest University, studied economics, and played wide receiver on the football team. He played football professionally a bit before moving to New York City, where he now lives with...
Tyler Cameron! Yes, James and Cameron are best friends and roommates. Most of Bachelor Nation knows this, though. Fans were originally introduced to James as one of Cameron's BFFs. James created ABC Food Tours—an organization Cameron is heavily involved with too—which is "designed to find creative ways to engage kids from underserved communities in New York City, encouraging physical and mental wellness, while also giving them opportunities for new experiences throughout the city," according to a press release from ABC.
He was supposed to be a contestant on Clare Crawley's season of The Bachelorette. At the time, Bachelor Nation was pretty stoked about James signing on. So naturally, they're really excited about him becoming the next full-on Bachelor.
Apparently, he's already made history on the show."Matt did something on night one that we've never had happen before…. It's not what you think, though; it's really crazy," ABC exec Robert Mills said on Nick Viall's podcast, according to Us Weekly. Um, we can't wait.
He is very, very hot. Just look at his Instagram. In fact, do yourself a favor and follow Matt James now.

HOUSTON - (Jan. 6, 2014) - Although complications from surgical care for cancer patients may seem infrequent, the costs associated with such outcomes are extremely high, according to researchers from Rice University's Baker Institute for Public Policy and the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. Their findings were reported in the Dec. 30 online edition of the journal Cancer.
"It is widely known that outcomes after cancer surgery vary widely, depending on interactions between patient, tumor, neoadjuvant therapy and provider factors," said Marah Short, a senior research analyst for the Baker Institute's Health Policy Forum. "An area of cancer care that has received little attention is the influence of complications on medical outcomes and costs of care. In our study, we found consistently higher costs associated with cancer surgery complications. Improved patient outcomes and substantial health care savings could be achieved by targeting these complicating factors for quality improvement."
Short co-authored the article with Vivian Ho, the chair in health economics at the Baker Institute, a professor of economics at Rice and a professor of medicine at Baylor College of Medicine, and Thomas Aloia, an associate professor in the MD Anderson Cancer Center's Department of Surgical Oncology. The authors' findings come against the backdrop of rising cancer care costs in the United States, which were estimated at $124.6 billion in 2010 and could rise by 66 percent to $207 billion by 2020.
In cancer treatment, unlike many benign conditions, there tends to be a higher threshold of tolerance for complications, the authors said. In addition, the direct cause of complications is more difficult to determine as there are complex interactions between patient, tumor, multimodality therapy and provider factors that contribute to adverse outcomes.
In their study, the authors used the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality's Patient Safety Indicators' (PSIs) definitions to identify patient safety-related complications in Medicare claims data. PSIs are a set of transparent outcome measures that provide information on potential in-hospital complications and adverse events after surgeries, procedures and childbirth. They analyzed hospital and inpatient physician claims from all 50 U.S. states for the years 2005 through 2009 for six cancer resections: colectomy, rectal resection, pulmonary lobectomy, pneumonectomy, esophagectomy and pancreatic resection.
They found overall PSI rates for complications arising from the six procedures ranged from a low of 0.01 percent for postoperative hip fracture to a high of 2.58 percent for respiratory failure. Rates of postoperative respiratory failure, death among inpatients with serious treatable complications, postoperative thromboembolism and accidental puncture/laceration were more than 1 percent for all six cancer operations. Several PSIs -- including decubitus ulcer, postoperative thromboembolism and death among surgical inpatients with serious treatable complications -- raised hospitalization costs by more than 20 percent for most types of cancer surgery. Postoperative respiratory failure resulted in a cost increase of more than 50 percent for all cancer resections.
"These data indicate that even in the complex cancer care environment, in which many controllable and uncontrollable variables may contribute to complications, improvements in patient safety indicators are highly likely to reduce costs," Short said. "We may not have identified all of the complication measures that are important determinants of surgeon and hospital costs. However, because we know so little about the links between provider volume, care processes, complications and costs, this analysis represents an important first step in examining these relations."
The study was supported by grants from the National Cancer Institute and the Cancer Prevention and Research Institute of Texas.

After turning heads during this past June's North by Northeast (NXNE) concert series and a brief tour supporting the Arkells in September, July Talk released their self-titled, debut album on Oct. 16.
If you're thinking July Talk sounds vaguely familiar, it's likely because you missed their opening set at the Tunes Against Tuition concert at Campus Commons in early September. While an empty campus at 1 p.m. may not have been the ideal setting to see leading band members Peter Dreimanis and Leah Fay in action, July Talk will be returning to Kamloops on Oct. 31 to play a free Halloween show at Bailey's Pub that you will not want to miss.
The contrasts presented by the black and white album art are immediately contextualized on the opening track as Dreimanis's growl hauntingly dances around the bass line, only to be followed by Fay's sickly sweet vocals entwined with the guitars' slamming entrance. The first song, "The Garden," seamlessly flows into "Guns + Ammunition" and the listener barely has time to grasp their bearings before Dreimanis forcibly grips you, chanting, "When you leave, I cannot sleep and when you leave my body shakes." At this point you're hooked and you want more.
Fay and Dreimanis continue to lead the listener into "Paper Girl" where Dreimanis spews, "I'll be laughing in your head, until I want to stop," characterizing himself in an authoritative position one can only imagine comes standard with a voice as deep as his.
July Talk runs full course, slowly bowing out with the slow-burning "Come Down Champion," fading into the bluesy "I've Rationed Well," ending the album just beyond the 30-minute mark.
The fleeting tension and angst depicted through the juxtaposing of Fay's and Dreimanis's voices makes it quite clear that she's both his vice and muse. Complete with highs and lows, full blown rock 'n' roll to groovy synth layers, July Talk is an adventure.
See you all at the Halloween show.


One of the advantages of working at the edges of the mainstream music business is that an artist can bring an audience to fine music that they otherwise would not have the opportunity to hear. That is one half of the essence of Key Pianists, Terry Eder's concert series that present offbeat repertoire by musicians, who have the kind of careers that involve teaching or research as much as concertizing.
Eder herself closed the current fourth season of Key Pianists with a performance Monday night in Weill Recital Hall. She has a special personal interest in music from Eastern Europe, especially Hungary, and some such works were on a program that had a broad scope through styles and epochs.
But as a concert, it was often a rough and frustrating experience—surprisingly so for this fine musician. The best moments, which came after intermission and were quite fine, were bookended by some difficult and unsuccessful playing.
Eder has recorded some of Ernst von Dohnányi's piano music, and she started with his moody, brooding Intermezzo in F minor, Op. 2, No. 3, from the composer's 4 Klavierstücke. Immediately, things seemed a little off.
The timing between notes, and the balance between those spaces, was just uneven enough to leave phrases feeling unsettled, unfulfilled in the way that a sentence promising some enlightenment might trail off into ellipses. Musical ideas came to the precipice of being fully formed, but none were truly realized.
One thought this may have been the result of interpretive indecision. But the following works—Schubert's Impromptu No. 1 in F minor, D. 935, and Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 28— had one realizing the problems were technical, and they were real problems.
The mood of the Impromptu took some time to clarify; at first it seemed nostalgic, but then dried out into a nice, sober clarity, and Eder seemed poised to let the music speak for itself. But soon she started fighting with the music, struggling again with phrases, but also with basic execution. Mistakes are temporary and usually inconsequential, but she had problems playing sequences of sixteenth notes, and bass notes were frequently wrong.
The opening movement of the Beethoven sonata was fine, and Eder put the wistful, imaginative harmonies on display. But her technical struggles returned with the second movement, again getting in the way of her music making. An excellent transition from the third to final movement was in the end thwarted by problems with basic four-note patterns in the right hand which threw a knot into every coherent passage. A clueless audience member's electronic device breaking out into an extended samba didn't help matters.
There was a transformation for most of the second half, beginning with superb performances of four pieces by Kodály: the Transylvanian Lament (No. 2 in his Op. 11 Seven Pieces for Piano), his Op. 3, No. 7 Allegro giocoso, the Méditation sur un motif de Claude Debussy, and the Op. 11, No. 4 Epitaphe. Like Bartók, the music was full of color and jaunty rhythms. Eder's playing was so fluid and secure, especially in the improvisatory Epitaphe, that one could just listen with pleasure.
The excellent Méditation had one anticipating the following music, Book I of Debussy's Images. As with the previous set of pieces, Eder's playing was superb. She maintained a balance between poetry and form, eschewed easy indulgence in Debussy's sensual sonorities, and pointed up the clarity of Debussy's rhythms. It was refreshing to hear the music approached with such interest in the structure, which let the effect take care of itself.
She finished with L'isle joyeuse, and, once again, it was rough going. Where Images was flowing and pure, this was uneven, even awkward, and at one moment was on the edge of faltering completely.
Eder dashed off Chopin's G-flat Waltz, Op. 70, with elan, and that left one with a good feeling and the inclination to chalk it up to a bad night from a good pianist, something which afflicts us all.

Q: Cannot access dockerized MySQL instance from another container When I start MySQL :
docker run --rm -d -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=root -p 3306:3306 -v /Docker/data/matos/mysql:/var/lib/mysql mysql:5.7

And start PHPMyAdmin :
docker run --rm -d -e PMA_HOST=172.17.0.1 phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin:latest

PMA cannot connect to the DB server.
When I try with PMA_HOST=172.17.0.2 (which is the address assigned to the MySQL container), it works.
But :

*

*as MySQL container publishes its 3306 port, I think it should be reachable on 172.17.0.1:3306.

*I don't want to use the 172.17.0.2 address because the MySQL container can be assigned another address whenever it restarts

Am I wrong ?
(I know I can handle this with docker-compose, but prefer managing my containers one by one).
(My MySQL container is successfully telnetable from my laptop with telnet 172.17.0.1 3306).
(My docker version : Docker version 20.10.3, build 48d30b5).
Thanks for your help.

A: Create a new docker network and start both containers with the network
docker network create my-network

docker run --rm -d --network my-network -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=root -p 3306:3306 -v /Docker/data/matos/mysql:/var/lib/mysql --name mysql mysql:5.7

docker run --rm -d --network my-network -e PMA_HOST=mysql phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin:latest

Notice in the command that I've given the mysql container a name 'mysql' and used it as the address for phpmyadmin

A: Just found out the problem.
My ufw was active on my laptop, and did not allow explicitly port 3306.
I managed to communicate between PMA container and MySQL, using 172.17.0.1, either by disabling ufw or adding a rule to explicitly accept port 3306.
Thanks @kidustiliksew for your quick reply, and the opportunity you gave me to test user-defined networks.

A: maybe it's a good idea to use docker-compose.
Create a docker-compose.yml file and inside declare two services, one web and the other db, then you can reference them through their service names (web, db)
ex: PMA_HOST=db

If you want to use taijiquan in combat, it is important for you to have the ability to move in any direction with ease. Spontaneity is fundamental in combat.
We need freedom of movement, ease, comfort, naturalness and whole-body strength.
The stances popularised in many schools are extremely low or linear. They offer a certain kind of strength but limited mobility when pressure-tested.
Large stances impede joint mobility and deny the skeleton its full range of natural movement.
If you work on the premise that all attacks are likely to involve more than one opponent, you make no assumptions regarding stance.
Boxers have fought using an upright skeletal stance for millennia, yet many taijiquan people stand as if performing yoga. Why is this?
Yoga is great for strong stretching but has no known combat application. It is common for taijiquan exponents to over-commit themselves and displace the joints; this is bad for combat.
If you want to do a strong stretch, do yoga. If you want to taijiquan, only stretch to 70%.
Taijiquan stretching is mainly internal, not external. The stretching is mild. We address the bulk of our stretching during qigong, leg stretches, core strength and Taoist Yoga.
Be careful not to take strong stretching into combat.
The human skeleton is upright. Standing upright, with the feet beneath the shoulders/hips maximises your ability to rotate the hips, move the hips, knees, ankles and shoulders comfortably.
Do not interfere with your body. If you cannot generate power standing easily and naturally, you are relying upon unnatural stances.
Exaggerating the taijiquan is a bad habit practiced by inexperienced students who lack a subtle sense of the art.
Instead of moving in a way that follows the underlying kinetic energy flow, the student takes huge steps, low stances, and extends their arms absurdly far from the centre.
Big stances limit your ability to move the joints in a fluid, comfortable way. The overly-extended limbs create tension in the joints that hamper free movement.
Taijiquan is not yoga. It is about spontaneous movement, not strong stretching.
Your body usage needs to feel as comfortable and as natural as possible. This will improve mobility, attract less attention and protect your knee joints.
If you cannot get power from an everyday standing position, you are overly dependant upon the hips and the solidity of your base.
Whole-body movement generates power in a wave-like fashion. A low stance is simply redundant.
There is a danger in seeking to improve the human body. Taoism encourages an attitude of going with the flow, of working with what you have.
Keep your movements as natural and comfortable as you can. If it feels like a posture, then you are exaggerating it.
Combat requires spontaneity and ease of movement. It asks you to move in any direction at any moment. Being fixed will not offer you this.
A large frame offers you a gain in one area at the expense of a loss in another. We need to remain open and flexible, free and mobile.
Stand normally, with your knees relaxed - you already have mobility. Why mess with it?
Taijiquan magazines, articles and video clips often feature Chinese people adopting extremely demanding taijiquan postures. These are certainly impressive.
However, such stances are merely demonstrations of agility, strength and suppleness. They possess no martial value whatsoever. Adopting an exotic stance in combat would be suicidal.
It is important to consider your motive when training taijiquan. If your intention is to perform in front of audiences, then exceedingly low stances may well be a crowd-pleaser.
If you are seeking good fitness and martial skills, such exotic postures are unimportant. Taijiquan is not about extremities. It is about natural, comfortable, easy movement.
The emphasis needs to be upon the word 'movement'.
Combat is not static or fixed. An extreme stance represents a martial commitment that will hamper your ability to move smoothly.
Besides, if you are a Western adult, your knees may well suffer if you try and squat inches from the ground in a very low stance. Why bother?
The final test of taijiquan fighting ability is freeform combat against multiple opponents.
This will not prove whether or not you will succeed in a real life street confrontation, but it will pressure test your taijiquan.
Do not take our word for anything. Prove it for yourself. Try low stances against earnest opponents who launch random, unstylised punches, kicks and grapples.
Find out for yourself what works and what does not.
One of my friends studied judo for years and years. She was waiting for a chance to use it, but for a long time nobody tried to attack her. Then one day somebody grabbed her in a parking lot - and she slugged him with her purse!
And then she thought, "Oh! What happened to my judo?"
She must have been practicing judo as if it were an isolated thing. We should always practice to let the immediacy of the moment come through. Then you always have a sense of what you are doing now.


Flow Dental, a leading provider of dental x-ray film and accessories, asked The Brand Counselors to revamp thier existing product catalog. Having worked on some of Flow's packaging in the past, we wanted to bring the clean, organized presentation that was developed for those projects into the catalog. The products in the catalog were grouped into different workflows; products that work with x-ray film, digital x-ray sensors, patient protection, film processing equipment, etc. Custom icons were created and sections were color-coded so the reader would know exactly what section they were in.
The result was both an organized, easy-to-read catalog and the basis for an overall brand feel for Flow Dental.


What is the Ma'yan Research Training Intensive (RTI)?
The RTI is a two year research, activism, and leadership experience for self-identified high-school-age Jewish girls.
Applications are now closed for the fall. If you would like to be notified about the 2017 RTI, contact Beth Cooper Benjamin.
What do the RTIs do?
Participants in the RTI discuss questions about Judaism, feminism, and mass culture. In year 1 they explore their experiences, learn about society and social justice, and bond as a group. In year 2 they generate an original research question based on the previous year's learning, conduct a research project to investigate an issue of concern in their communities, and use creative approaches to present their findings to peers, educators, administrators, and other community leaders, using their knowledge to advocate for change.
The cohort meets about twice a month on Thursday nights over the course of two school years (meetings are not held during the summer) at JCC Manhattan. The next program will begin this September 2016. There will also be one weekend sleepover per year, in the fall or early winter.
The subsidized RTI costs $500 for the first year. Second year pricing TBD. We will work with you so that cost is not a barrier to participation.
How can I get involved? Am I eligible to apply?
Applications are now closed for the 2016-2018 RTI cohort. If you would like to be notified about applications for 2017 RTI cohort, contact Beth Cooper Benjamin.
Can high school seniors apply?
This is a two-year program, but high school seniors are invited to apply to Year 1 of the Intensive. All other applicants will be considered for the two-year program.
What is unique about the RTI?
c) considering the ways we are shaped by holding multiple identities (gender, race, class, religion, sexuality, etc.) in the same body at the same time.
When we talk about RTI, we refer to it equally as a "deep dive" — a sustained examination of an important and challenging topic — and a "come-as-you-are party" where every participant is invited to bring their full self and nobody has to prove their value because we already figured out you're amazing.
Why is this program longer than it used to be?
Every RTI cohort has been awesome, and we take feedback from previous cohorts seriously. Often we hear from our alums that the program felt too short, and that somehow both the learning stage and the research project felt like they ran short on time. That's why this year we are expanding our 1.5 year program to a fulltwo years to make it even stronger. Now there will be more time for both aspects of the program, but the basic idea is still the same: learn about how things work in society; research a specific problem, and use the research to advocate for change!
What do alumnae and parents say about RTI?
The RTI is led by Ma'yan staff and a team of RTI alumnae. Graduates of the RTI who are still in high school will have the opportunity to take part in a paid internship where they will get to learn and practice facilitation and group leadership skills as they help to train the next RTI cohort.
To learn more about the RTI, get in touch with Ma'yan's Director of Research, Beth Cooper Benjamin.
The Research Training Intensive Year 2 is based on the model of Participatory Action Research.

The video shows the installation as it was presented at Cinemathèque québécoise from December 3 to 21, 2009.
To this date, the installation was shown once, in the Norman McLaren exhibition hall of the Cinémathèque québécoise in Montreal, from December 3 to 21 2009. It consisted in the simultaneous projection of twelve versions, in twelve different languages, of the "Only the hand…" performance which is a live animation performance where I animate the sentence Only the hand that erases can write the true thing (more details follow about this). The languages were: English, French, Italian, Dutch, Yiddish, Portuguese, Lakota, Paiute, Romanesco, Romagnolo, Ojibway and Innu. There were four screens side by side on three walls of the space. The different versions were placed from left to right in chronological order so that beyond the multiplicity of languages it did give evidence to an evolution in time in the way of approaching the animation of the words and to a geographical circulation in order to do each performance in countries were the language was spoken. The date, location and language were identified under each of the screens. The installation repeated itself every 35 minutes and it played with a music track by Stefan Smulovitz.


Between the years 1907 and 1931, the Ziegfeld Follies were the toast of New York. The lavish entertainment spectacle that featured beautiful girls in beautiful gowns was wildly popular among New York's high society, as was its creator, Florenz Ziegfeld, whose life was as decadent as his shows.
How fitting that in 1936, at the height of the Great Depression, Metro-Goldwyn Mayer (known for removing its audience from their current financial woes with its own lavish musical productions) decided to create a large-scale biopic about the lavish and luxurious life of Florenz Ziegfeld. The 3-hour exploration of Ziegfeld's loves and losses simultaneously reminds viewers of what life was like when people had money to spare, and acknowledges the problems of the present. Several former Ziegfeld performers appear as themselves in the film, notably Ray Bolger and the legendary Fanny Brice (from whom we hear a few measures of her signature song, "My Man," but the camera cuts away and the rest of the song is lost. A disappointing cinematic choice, in my opinion!) A reminder that Florenz Ziegfeld was essentially left for broke when the stock market crashed in 1929 resonated with audiences in 1936, still reeling from the stock market crash 7 years prior, as well as audiences of the present day. Ultimately we are reminded that our luxuries are temporary, and that we should not take anything for granted.
William Powell and Luise Rainer as Florenz Ziegfeld and Anna Held.
The story hinges mostly on Ziegfeld's common law marriage to Anna Held, a Polish-French stage performer, portrayed in the film by Luise Rainer. Ziegfeld (William Powell) is painted as a perpetual ladies' man, and his line of work certainly doesn't curtail his propensity for chasing women. Anna tolerates it to a point, but when Ziegfeld is seen kissing a drunk chorus girl, she leaves. Despite his indiscretions, the film makes it clear that she still loves him. Ziegfeld subsequently becomes involved with Billie Burke (Myrna Loy) and when he marries her, Anna is heartbroken.
Luise Rainer won the 1936 Academy Award for Best Actress for her role as Anna, and it is widely said that her scene congratulating Ziegfeld on the telephone was what secured the award for her. Though it is a brilliant and beautiful scene with magnificent acting by Rainer, for me it is the few seconds just before she gets on the phone that stand out as the most emotional moment of the film. The character is miserable, anxious, and shaky, and the emotion exuded by Rainer is raw and shockingly real.
Ziegfeld's romance and marriage Billie Burke is the most celebrated of all Ziegfeld's exploits, but gets the least amount of attention in the film. The character of Billie Burke doesn't come in until 2 hours into the movie, and the exploration of Burke and Ziegfeld gets about half an hour of screen time. The birth of their child is completely glossed over (suddenly the audience is confronted with a 4-year-old child who was never mentioned previously, and is left to the task of deducing that this is the child of Burke and Ziegfeld), and it seems that Metro was in a hurry to get this expensive picture wrapped at the expense of the continuity of the plot.
Nonetheless, the last few minutes of the film, depicting Ziegfeld in the throes of bankruptcy and severely ill, is full of poignancy and in itself a representation of the American identity in the 1930's. Ziegfeld himself, in many ways, represented the 1920's. Extravagant, joyous, devil-may-care, his attitude was reflected in the overarching sentiment of the country. The stock market crash ruined Ziegfeld just as it ruined the spirit of the 1920's, and the vision of this symbol of extravagance and luxury lying on his deathbed is one that holds a double meaning for audiences. The film ends as Ziegfeld has a vision of his Follies for one last time–before the flower he is holding drops to the ground.
The film is extremely long, but doesn't particularly feel that way until the plot begins to speed about 45 minutes before the film's end. Beautiful performances all around, and I feel that Myrna Loy's portrayal of Billie Burke could have been a lot more exposed had the studio taken the time to expand the end of the film a bit. Myrna Loy's high, sweet voice with just a hint of the flitty quality to it that defined Billie Burke's, it is clear to me why they chose Myrna for the role.
to work on the stage. She retired to London, England, where she still lives, having recently celebrated her 103rd birthday. She lives a semi-quiet retired life, but made an appearance at the first annual TCM Classic Film Festival, on the occasion of her 100th birthday.
Here are some pictures of the real Florenz Ziegfeld, Billie Burke and Anna Held. See you next time!

Lovely and informative evocation of a classic.
Thank you Ellis. I enjoy this movie.
I really enjoyed reading this post — I've got this film in my collection, but I've never had the chance to sit down and watch it yet. This weekend looks like the perfect opportunity to do so 😉 Thanks so much for posting this — it made me smile! And hooray for Rainer for still going strong!

Q: Weird behavior on checkboxes in angular 1.2 In Angular 1.0, having two checkboxes with the same name and different true values would correctly cause the checkbox to have the right value.
In Angular 1.2 this behavior seems to have changed completely but with no documentation.
Here is my angular 1.0 good example
http://jsfiddle.net/rpTen/248/
<form name="myForm" ng-controller="Ctrl">

  userType: <input name="input" ng-model="userType" required type='checkbox' ng-true-value='2'>

 <input name="input" ng-model="userType" required type='checkbox' ng-true-value='3'>

 Required

 <tt>userType = {{userType}}</tt>

 <tt>myForm.input.$valid = {{myForm.input.$valid}}</tt>

 <tt>myForm.input.$error = {{myForm.input.$error}}</tt>

          <tt>myForm.input.$dirty = {{myForm.input.$dirty}}</tt>

 <tt>myForm.$valid = {{myForm.$valid}}</tt>

 <tt>myForm.$error.REQUIRED = {{!!myForm.$error.REQUIRED}}</tt>

</form>

here is the same example but updating to 1.2

Q: Regex string between square brackets only if '.' is within string I'm trying to detect the text between two square brackets in Python however I only want the result where there is a "." within it.
I currently have [(.*?] as my regex, using the following example:
String To Search:
CASE[Data Source].[Week] = 'THIS WEEK'
Result:
Data Source, Week
However I need the whole string as [Data Source].[Week], (square brackets included, only if there is a '.' in the middle of the string). There could also be multiple instances where it matches.

A: You might write a pattern matching [...] and then repeat 1 or more times a . and again [...]
\[[^][]*](?:\.\[[^][]*])+

Explanation

*

*\[[^][]*] Match from [...] using a negated character class

*(?: Non capture group to repeat as a whole part

*

*\.\[[^][]*] Match a dot and again [...]

*)+ Close the non capture group and repeat 1+ times

See a regex demo.
To get multiple matches, you can use re.findall
import re

pattern = r"\[[^][]*](?:\.\[[^][]*])+"

s = ("CASE[Data Source].[Week] = 'THIS WEEK'\n"
            "CASE[Data Source].[Week] = 'THIS WEEK'")

print(re.findall(pattern, s))

Output
['[Data Source].[Week]', '[Data Source].[Week]']

If you also want the values of between square brackets when there is not dot, you can use an alternation with lookaround assertions:
\[[^][]*](?:\.\[[^][]*])+|(?<=\[)[^][]*(?=])

Explanation

*

*\[[^][]*](?:\.\[[^][]*])+ The same as the previous pattern

*| Or

*(?<=\[)[^][]*(?=]) Match [...] asserting [ to the left and ] to the right

See another regex demo

A: I think an alternative approach could be:
import re

pattern = re.compile("(\[[^\]]*\]\.\[[^\]]*\])")

print(pattern.findall(sss))

OUTPUT
['[Data Source].[Week]']

Brewery and Toy Store to open in Cobourg
The owners of All Creatures Great and Small, Theresa Rickerby and Heather Haraldsson-Glennie, will be opening a new store soon at 4 King street West called Spark - Smart Toys for Cool Kids. It's also billed as an Arts and Crafts supply store. Their facebook page is here.
Also starting up but not yet fully operational is the William Street Beer company who will make beer at 412 William Street. That's at the northeast corner of William and University – previously a used car dealership - and they plan to renovate the building.
They are a craft brewery and will sell beer, not beer making kits. They describe it as: We brew exciting beers in small batches, only available in our onsite retail store.
They have a blog here.
Also, unrelated to the headline, Gail Rayment reports that The County Bistro on Cobourg's King Street, is to close. And there is a new take-out operation called Yorkie's Bar-B-Q on Cobourg's Division St. north of the 401 on the west side. It offers a take-out menu of ribs and also sandwiches with ingredients fresh from their smoker.
Update on Toy store
The new store at 4 King St W Spark - Smart Toys for Cool Kids is now open for business. They have a cross promotion going with the opening of the Lego Movie at the mall. Their facebook page is here. They don't have a web site. Is that a new trend?


Different factors, networks related to the ideologies of Corruption in the societies and in the EMNC companies have been analyzed in this section.Pernicious effects owing to corruption have seen to affect many dimensions of the society. It causes decisive effects to politics, economy, society and environment (World Bank, 2013). Corruption is an unethical practice. Owing to corruption certain faction of society becomes unknowing and unwitting victims. Corruption hampers the growth and progress of the societies. It leads to growth of certain self-serving individuals. In this process the larger section of the population gets affected. Ramifications of corruption are not found in any one section of the society. It is found to echo in many multimodal forms and affects operation of a number of other sectors. It has been found that it impedes progress and development of the individual countries and causes detrimental effects to the people across the world. It causes disproportionate growth in society and the gap between the rich and the poor widens subsequent to corruptive practices. Explicitly, this leads to chaos and anarchy in the societies (Ip, 2009). Added to this, there is overall disfunction in the society that leads to issues in the individual communities.
According to many reports there has been an increase in corruption in many areas of the developing countries (Olken & Pande, 2011). It has been found from observational analysis that there is increase in corruptive practices in many of the emerging nations. This could be due to the dire need of resources or the fact that these countries do not have proper law enforcement system to monitor their unscrupulous activities. This worrying trend will cause large scale destruction to the societies. To handle corruption, roots of corruption need to be primarily deciphered. There is a need to probe into the root cause of corruption to find ways to solve the issue of corruption that are existing the countries. In recent years, an increasing number of researchers have paid attention to the causes and consequences of corruption. Apart from these there is a need to find the ways to measure corruption. Quantifying corruption has been found to gain prominence in the current times (Mahmoudi, 2014). Definition of corruption itself is a complex connotation; it is a kind of aberrant behaviour. It is based on the initiators, actors and beneficiaries of the process.

CIA's Brainwashing Mayhem is in the Full Swing in the EU
It is now an undisputed fact that the Western democratic values and the so-called "freedom of speech" that have been heralded for a long time as the principal achievements of the Western world are nothing but empty slogans. This is evidenced by the latest resolution of the European Parliament on countering Russia's media influence dubbed the "EU strategic communications with a view to counteracting propaganda." This document was initiated by a Polish member of the European Parliament, Anna Fotyga who claims that Russia has been providing financial support to opposition political parties and organizations in the EU, thereby undermining the unity of its states.
It is noteworthy that the authors behind this document are speaking about the necessity of media pluralism and freedom of information, while introducing a form of censorship against all Russian media sources.
At the same time those behind this curious paper advocate the revocation of Article 55 of Chapter IX of the UN Charter, which demands a universal respect and observance of human rights and fundamental freedoms for everyone, regardless of their race, sex, language or religion, including the rights to freedom of expression.
It's curious that delusional which hunts and the suppression of alternative media sources has recently become one of the principal attributes of the European politics. This is clearly shown by the report that has been presented by Dr Andrew Foxall, the Director of the Russia Studies Centre at The Henry Jackson Society, that advocates the notion that activists, journalists, and politicians should point out the pro-Russian connections of individuals and parties across the political spectrum and challenge the credibility of these entities via political debates, while personal and organizational connections of left- and right-wing politicians and parties and their Russian counterparts should be mapped across Europe.
It's curious that Dr Marcus Papadopoulos, the editor in chief of Politics First has been outraged by the above mentioned report, calling it manifestation of a modern form of McCarthyism. Papadopoulos is convinced that this is nothing but a slap in the face of freedom of speech and a rather stupid attempt to try to silence those who disagree with with the UK government. It's curious that UK politicians are convinced they can call "idiots" anybody who disagrees with their position.
Moreover, the "Foxall's proclamation" was released on the eve of the discussion of the EU strategic communications with a view to counteracting propaganda in the EU parliament and has become a sort of foundation for this document.
This means that the Operation Mockingbird that was launched by the CIA in the 1950s hasn't been discontinued and is now being implemented in the EU. If you take a look at the rapidly growing funding of the European corporate media sources, it becomes obvious that America's loyal puppets have been busy producing disinformation on the massive scale. Every day we witness new articles being published that have nothing in common with reality, yet no amount of evidence can force those corporate media sources to confess that they've been deliberately lying.
Just take a look at the role Western media played in the Ukrainian crisis, where Russia's position is just being ignored by every single Western journal and newspaper. Yet, the fact that Russia hasn't been preparing any sort of occupation of Ukraine has been proven by France's military intelligence, General Christophe Gomart in the speech he delivered in front of the French National Assembly. Yet, his report was just ignored.
It must be clearly understood that a web of deception is always being created by the CIA in those regions and in those periods when specific Washington's actions may become the cause of serious criticism and may lead to the manifestation of one's independence from the United States. For this purpose, the White House annually allocates billions of dollars to the National Endowment for Democracy, USAID, the CIA and countless NGOs to spread disinformation. However, such steps are not causing alarm among European politicians, that are subjecting their people to vassal dependency on Washington and its position.
Back in 2011 the Guardian would report:
The US military is developing software that will let it secretly manipulate social media sites by using fake online personas to influence internet conversations and spread pro-American propaganda.
A Californian corporation has been awarded a contract with United States Central Command (Centcom), which oversees US armed operations in the Middle East and Central Asia, to develop what is described as an "online persona management service" that will allow one US serviceman or woman to control up to 10 separate identities based all over the world. The multiple persona contract is thought to have been awarded as part of a programme called Operation Earnest Voice (OEV), which was first developed in Iraq as a psychological warfare weapon against the online presence of al-Qaida supporters and others ranged against coalition forces. Since then, OEV is reported to have expanded into a $200m programme and is thought to have been used against jihadists across Pakistan, Afghanistan and the Middle East.
Today we can witness the direct result of this program on most European forums, where those dissatisfied with their elected officials are being subjected to harassment and trolling. Yes, the delusional notion about the so-called "Russian propaganda" is the talk of the day in the EU, while the aggressive Washington's disinformation campaign is being silently ignored, as if nothing of interest was happening in this domain.

Dead Record Office
Catalogue No: AUDpub001
Publisher: Art in General, New York, USA.
112-page book.
The Dead Record Office outlines a brief history of AUDINT from their emergence as a sonic research unit shortly after the end of the Second World War until 2014. During this documented 70-year period, the works of the three waves of AUDINT personnel are focused on and their connection to three phases of martial hauntology – the Ghost Army, Wandering Soul and Phantom Hailer – explained. The book functions as a historical document that offers insight into the framework of AUDINT's investigations and experiments; an on going inquiry into the weaponisation of waveforms and the activities of those that harness such techniques to stake out psychological and physiological realms at the edge of perception.
The Dead Record Office reveals the deceptive sonic strategies, technologies, and programs developed by military organisations since 1944 to orchestrate the spectral phenomena of a haunting within an area of conflict for territorial gain. Instances of this frequency-based haunting of the battlefield include – World War II when the U.S. military's Ghost Army pioneered speaker based deception techniques and apparatus; the Vietnam War in which the U.S. military deployed 'Wandering Soul' ('Ghost Number 10') tapes that imitated the voices of dead Vietcong fighters from helicopter mounted speaker units; and in Guantánamo Bay, where detainees who were legally dead yet biologically alive were tortured by Death Metal music.
