And Oroszi thinks that technology has a similar role to play in the language industry today. Translation technology has evolved over the past 30 years and the advent of translation memories in the 1990s shifted the industry from a manual to computer-aided model, Oroszi explained. From 2005, early-stage machine translation technology was available and was starting to be used in addition to translation memory software, he said.
Oroszi said that technology that is capable of augmenting the translation workflow is already available, and humans still remain at the core. But, what the future of augmented translation looks like will depend on how far humans (translators, project managers and business owners) engage with these technologies and how effectively these tools and workflows can be personalized to their users, the memoQ CEO explained.
Quoting a survey memoQ conducted in 2018, Oroszi said that 90% of respondents believe that translators will need to increase their technological skill set if they want to remain competitive in the industry. Oroszi also told SlatorCon that memoQ's research found that "the technology skill-set is the barrier, not the technology itself," meaning that people still need to learn how to use the technology effectively for augmented translation to be a complete reality.
Another factor that influences uptake of and engagement in technology is personalization of systems, according to Oroszi. According to the MemoQ trend report, he said, 80% of people think that smarter personalization of methodologies will be on the rise in 2018.
Oroszi spoke of memoQ's journey to date in developing technology that aims to "give everyone the opportunity to understand each other better." Oroszi then described what came next for memoQ: memoQ Zen, an SaaS offering with a web interface that also supports speech recognition.
"You can now dictate to your software [and potentially] save 15, 20% of your time," Oroszi said. "Hey, memoQ," the company's speech to text app, made its debut at this year's memoQfest conference. Users can open the app on their devices, start memoQ on their PC, and connect the two by scanning a QR code. The app relies on the cloud-based speech recognition that is part of iOS, and sends everything users dictate straight to memoQ. Users can control every aspect of memoQ's translation interface through commands specific to the translation environment, in any of the 30+ languages that have dictation support in their smartphones.
Yet, even when the technology is right, success is not inevitable and relies also on the human (user) experience, he explained.
For example, one tester provided feedback on Hey memoQ saying that the system worked and the translations provided by the tools were accurate, but that he preferred dictating over the computer instead of via smartphone. This feedback, again, speaks of the impact that skill-set and personal preference has on how individuals use technology, said Oroszi.
By Oroszi's own admission, memoQ is a complex and interconnected web of tools and platforms. "At memoQ, we [add] 120 features each and every year," he said, and "I don't think that any of our customers [have] implemented even half of them in the last two years. It's complex and challenging," he added. "It's our job to show our customers that they can introduce new possibilities into their workflows and integrate complex translation technology systems," Oroszi said, indicating that customization and personalization are key.
Does Oroszi think this is a problem? Not at all, since he believes that the purpose of technology is to help clients with their unique business model. "It's my job to show you that you can integrate these systems—not all of it, but part of it," Oroszi said, indicating again that customization and personalization are key. And memoQ will still keep adding more and more technologies and features to their offerings, he said.
Revisiting the automotive analogy, Henry Ford, Oroszi said, left an indelible mark on the car industry. Though he did not invent the automobile, Ford made cars available to the masses. "I don't know if we will be the Henry Ford," Oroszi added.
Gartner's hype curve from a slide from Oroszi's presentation.
What he does know, however, is that the technologies that are being hyped up today will be tomorrow's new normal. Oroszi pointed to Gartner's "hype curve," a statistical curve mapping new technologies including blockchain, virtual reality, autonomous driving and deep learning. "I haven't even heard of half of these technologies. God knows in two or five years, the majority of this will be mainstream," he said.
Ultimately, in the midst of all of this technological advancement that makes augmented translation possible, Oroszi sees the true benefit as creation of time. "memoQ itself, the translation technology itself, gives you more time. It's a resource that gives your translators, owners and project managers time," he said. Since time is the scarcest resource for any given translation process, practically everyone is attempting to leverage smart technologies to automate. "Our vision is not based on the architecture of technology we offer. Our vision is to make time and give powers – augment our customers as much as possible," Oroszi concluded.
Norbert Oroszi is CEO of memoQ Translation Technologies, a translation management system of choice of hundreds of enterprises and translation companies. memoQ was Lead Partner of SlatorCon San Francisco 2018.

Home Entertainment Reality TV RHOSLC: Whoopi Goldberg Calls Out Support For Jen Shah
RHOSLC: Whoopi Goldberg Calls Out Support For Jen Shah
Whoopi Goldberg criticizes Real Housewives of Salt Lake City's Jen Shah amidst her ongoing legal woes as well as Meredith Marks for supporting her.
Whoopi Goldberg condemned The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star Jen Shah and co-star Meredith Marks during an episode of The View. Jen took a plea deal after being charged with fraud via a telemarketing scheme and has faced a lot of backlash from viewers as a result. Despite this, the reality TV star has been receiving quite a bit of support from her co-stars such as Heather Gay. Now Meredith is joining in on the support and is facing some criticism as a result.
The legal drama surrounding Jen has created some unforgettable moments on RHOSLC, most notably federal agents storming the cast's sprinter bus before a trip to Vale. Jen was initially arrested and charged with conspiracy to commit wire fraud in connection with telemarketing as outlined by the United States Department of Justice. The charges alleged that Jen and her co-conspirators defrauded hundreds of victims since 2012, specifically targeting the elderly. Jen maintained her innocence throughout RHOLSC season 2 but shocked viewers and co-stars alike when she took a plea deal in July. Jen now faces a maximum of 30 years in prison and is expected to face sentencing in November 2022. RHOSLC fans have denounced Jen in light of her guilty plea, but co-star Meredith continues to stand by her.

During an interview with Page Six, Meredith spoke on the state of her relationship with Jen, saying, "Jen and I are still speaking, and I think more than anything she needs support from the people around her." Meredith's interview was brought up during an episode of The View. Upon hearing Meredith's decision to support Jen, Whoopi responded, "Maybe the old folks that she defrauded might also need some support around them as well," throwing some serious shade at Meredith for standing by Jen. The Academy Award winner went on to add, "When it comes to older people, I'm not as forgiving. I'm just not because that's low-hanging fruit." Many of Whoopi's sentiments have been shared by RHOSLC fans, but her View co-hosts had some different thoughts.
Whoopi's View Co-Hosts Side With RHOSLC's Meredith
Former prosecutor Sunny Hostin shared a more positive outlook on the situation, saying, "I was always appreciative when you had someone take a plea." She explained further, adding, "They know they did something wrong. They've admitted to it. There's accountability there." Co-host Sara Haines continued to empathize with Meredith for supporting Jen, saying, "What I was always taught by my family and my church was in the darkest moments, you show up for people," seeming to support Meredith's decision to stand by her friend. While Jen's situation is quite difficult, Meredith's decision to support her has left some fans scratching their heads.

Meredith and Jen haven't always had the best relationship. In fact, they've spent the last two seasons of RHOSLC feuding, with allegations that Jen incited cyber-bullying of Meredith's son, Brooks Marks, taking center stage last season. Meredith has made it very clear on the show and off that anyone who messes with her family will reap the consequences. While Jen did apologize to Meredith for any pain she may have caused the Marks family, it's quite surprising to see Meredith be so vocal in her support of Jen. This new alliance between the two comes on the heels of Meredith closing the door on former best friend Lisa Barlow. Lisa's relationship with Jen has also been strained after last season's explosive RHOSLC reunion. It looks like Meredith and Jen might be bonding over their shared enemy, and it just may spell trouble during RHOSLC season 3.

Why do I need to choose my max concurrent call capacity?
Call capacity is needed to ensure we can route voice traffic to and from your phone numbers. Without it, you can't make or receive calls. It dictates the number of simultaneous conversations you will be able to have using the same number. The more capacity assigned to a number, the more concurrent calls you can make and receive. It's that simple.
How many concurrent calls can my numbers carry?
As many as you like! Because we use SIP trunks to deliver voice services via our private infrastructure and the internet, we can send as much traffic to each number as you need.

We have our club model show and contest in October each year, an official IPMS show. Each year we have had a Make 'N Take as part of the event, usually a table off to the side of the contest room where new or young modelers can sit and build a snap type model, and then take it home with them. Most of the people at a model show are already familiar with modeling and are more interested in the 1/24 th scale car kits, and more complex aircraft ones.
We also help officiate a contest at the Antigo County Fairgrounds that is given by the Badgerland Classics & Customs car club in August. As you might imagine, this contest is automotively themed and draws a hundred plus car and truck models. The classes of models are deliberately biased towards the younger modelers: one category for Juniors, three for Intermediates, and two for adults. That's Juniors, Intermediate Race cars, Intermediate Non-Race cars, and Intermediate Trucks, and Adult Cars, and Adult Trucks. The emphasis is on race cars since the Fairgrounds holds the local racetrack for the area.
For the last few years the Glue Crew has been holding a Make 'N Take event at the Badgerland contest. The first few times, attendance was light since we were rather out of the way on the fairgrounds and most of the attendees to the BCC model contest were already builders.
That all changed the Year of the Great Rain.
Car shows do not thrive in the rain. People do not like to have their spit shined cars rain spotted. Some of the cars date to the earliest years of automotive excellence and their owners feel that 80 years or more of getting rained on was enough.
Never the less - it rained.
And people were driven indoors for a bit of shelter.
We were in the largest volume of covered space available - the multi-purpose building.
Suddenly, a few hundred people found us. And the Make 'N Take models.
We wound up with 8, 8 foot long tables, half a dozen Glue Crew guys acting as building coaches, and ran out of models. Models for the BCC M'NT, and models set aside for our own show later in the year.
At the end, we had to defend our stack of boxed prize kits - the models to be given to the winners of the model contest - from prospective builders. I think we wound up with 3 pre-painted 1/100 th airplane models left over for "our" own contest!
Since then, people have known where to find us. And mercifully, the IPMS has been instrumental in supplying us with snap kits. Those folks - kids and adults - can go through lot of kits in 5 hours!
Thanks to the IPMS and the contributing model companies for all the help in the last years!


In 2015 the Forum Transregionale Studien (TraFo) in Berlin awarded Paola Molino, at that time Alexander von Humboldt Postdoctoral Fellow at the Ludwig Maximilians Universität (LMU) in Munich, a grant for the organization of an exploratory workshop on information management in early modern societies. While working on her application, Paola Molino had invited Martina Siebert, Guy Burak, and me to join her as co-convenors. The workshop was held in Berlin on 6 October 2016 in the Staatsbibliothek (SBB), and on 7 October 2016 in the rooms of the TraFo.
In February 2017 Paola Molino submitted her official final report about the workshop to the TraFo. Her version was written with the co-convenors, with contributions by Anne MacKinney, and is available here. The following text includes sections from earlier interim drafts, and is therefore more detailed.
This project began with a serendipitous crossing of the paths of four scholars working on the transmission of knowledge and the history of science in European, Middle Eastern, and East Asian societies. All of us have extensive experience with libraries—as readers, catalogers, and librarians—and hence quickly found common ground in our abiding interest in the composition of finding aids between 1400 and 1800 ce. In western Europe, during the early modern era, the transformation of feudal societies into territorial states prompted the ruling elites to invest into the construction of imperial libraries and archives, whose design projected transregional connections and supranational ambitions to the world at large. Although new cataloging principles emerged for the collections housed within these new physical spaces, they did not explicitly break with the already recognized knowledge traditions, and rather attempted to integrate the established authoritative epistemes into new classificatory regimes. These finding aids are fascinating objects in their own right: as artifacts they are primarily paper tools and, yet, their written contents can also be understood as a graphic representation of ideas. Therefore, we decided to focus our exploratory workshop on the catalogues themselves. One of our goals was to cross over the institutional barriers of memory institutions such as libraries, archives, and museums, as they often generate a confrontational relationship between readers and librarians. We invited colleagues with a wide range of expertise to reflect on the roles of finding aids within the history of their own academic disciplines. The transformation of concepts of knowledge—from fifteenth-century Humanism to eighteenth-century Enlightenment and nineteenth-century Positivism—has already received significant scholarly attention, and it has been studied from the bottom-up through tracking the interpersonal transmission of knowledge, and from the top-down by analyzing how imperial institutions, such as academies and universities, supported the diffusion of knowledge. Against this backdrop, the workshop pursued the nexus between the catalogued items—whether written texts or material artifacts—and the concrete, practical power of a catalogue. How were finding aids employed as instruments for transforming amassed holdings into a collection's apparent order? Conversely, how were cataloging ventures expressions of a ruler's sophistication through the effective control of precious, rare assets? In the daily business of doing research catalogues are usually experienced as humble tools and inevitable intermediaries operating as transparent, and thus seemingly neutral, interfaces between readers and written texts. We wanted to use the exploratory workshop for comparing finding aids in different cultural traditions in order to open fresh views of these very familiar resources—as if they had suddenly changed into unexplored territories.
The workshop comprised five sessions. We were joined by fifteen established scholars and around two dozen registered guests. In addition, we included four lightning talks by Sebastian Felten, Celeste Gianni, Anne MacKinney, and Julian zur Lage, since they are currently working on research projects related to the history of information management in a transregional perspective. On the first day the workshop was held in the Simón Bolívar Lecture Hall, generously made available by the Berlin Staatsbibliothek. Since the hands-on examination of a catalog's handwritten or printed copy is an indispensable part of research on their intellectual history, we are grateful that the Staatsbibliothek allowed us to draw on its rich collections for a show-and-tell. For the second day we convened in the rooms of the Forum Transregionale Studien.
The workshop opened with a session on the epistemology of catalogues, and was chaired by Nur Sobers Khan, a curator at the British library and a historian of Turco-Persian societies after 1500. Paola Molino, Islam Dayeh, and Martina Siebert investigated how the construction of libraries and the design of their research facilities developed in conjunction with the organization of finding aids. Molino focused on early modern Europe, Dayeh examined Arabic finding aids from the Arab world before 1500, and Siebert surveyed the development of Chinese bibliography between the first and the nineteenth century. The speakers agreed that the refinement of classification schemes went hand in hand with a growing demand for the systematization of knowledge. Particular attention was given to the technical terminology of classification schemes vis-à-vis the various purposes of bibliographical information, and to the appreciation of finding aids as intellectual achievements in their own right. In the discussion, we explored the possibility of a methodology for the study of finding aids as sources for a transregional history of knowledge. What is the impact of ideology on classification schemes? To which degree are cataloging ventures driven by the universal human experience of loss and the complimentary desire to prevent the destruction of cultural heritage? What is the relationship between technological change in the reproduction of written language (e.g., manuscript books, blockprinted books, books printed with moveable letters), levels of book production, and approaches to the compilation of bibliographical information?
The show-and-tell highlighted some of the important Latin, Arabic, and Japanese finding aids in the Staatsbibliothek's collections. Ursula Winter presented the holograph of the Catalogus manuscriptorum by Johann Raue (1610–1679), the first librarian of Berlin's Kurfürstlicher Bibliothek (Electoral Library, est. 1661). In 1668, after Friedrich Wilhelm of Brandenburg (r. 1640–1688) had opened his Electoral Library to outside readers, Raue compiled the first catalogue of the new library's manuscript holdings, arranging these codices according to how they were shelved within the library. Raue's Catalogus illustrated the possible interdependence between library architecture and a catalogue's systematic arrangement (cf. the use of so-called shelf lists as strictly internal methods of inventory control). Christoph Rauch und Dagmar Riedel explored how bibliographical information was transmitted in Muslim societies by contrasting two Arabic manuscript copies (dated 1724 and c.1840 respectively) of the Kashf al-ẓunūn ʿan asāmī al-kutub wa'l-funūn ("The removal of doubts from the titles of books and the scholarly disciplines") with an Arabic fragment (dated 14th or 15th cent.) of the Wafayāt al-aʿyān ("Death dates of notables"). The Wafayāt by Ibn Khallikān (1211–1282) is a bio-bibliographical dictionary and the Kashf by Katib Çelebi (1609–1657) a title catalogue in alphabetical order, but neither the Wafayāt nor the Kashf was designed as a finding aid for the holdings of a particular library. Exploring the affinities between catalogues, anthologies, and book collections, Ronny Vollandt showed an Arabic manuscript (dated 1325) with an anthology of prophetic books from the Old Testament, al-Jawhar al-muḍīy fī'l-sittat-ʿashar al-nabī ("The essential content of the sixteen prophets"), and Christian Dunkel explained a private collection of Japanese bookseller catalogues.
The second session investigated catalogues as means to the mastery of knowledge, and featured presentations by Christian Jacob, Seth Kimmel, and Alberto Cevolini. Arndt Brendeke, a historian of early modern Europe, presided over this session. Drawing on Kantian epistemology, Jacob highlighted the power of catalogues. He argued that knowledge is always bound to specific historical circumstances, so that the organization of finding aids reflects concrete human practices of the transmission of knowledge. Comparing finding aids and maps, Jacob suggested that insights gleaned from research on maps can be employed to advance our understanding of information management through catalogues. Kimmel used the ultimately failed project of a grand universal library, which the Spanish cartographer, explorer, and bibliophile Hernando Colón (1488–1539) had pursued in Seville, to explore tensions between the Humanist ideal of universal knowledge and Spain's politics of conquest in the Americas. In contrast, Cevolini focused on a mechanical indexing device for the storage of written notes and excerpts, known as the "ark of studies" and designed by the otherwise obscure Thomas Harrison (1595–1649) in the midst of the English Civil Wars. Cevolini described the "ark" as an external memory, and interpreted it as a disruptive invention which showed how new cognitive habits were accompanied by new organizational strategies. Approaching the "ark" from the perspective of the sociology of knowledge, Cevolini argued that from the 1450s onwards, after the invention of letterpress printing in western Europe, readers had to confront a dramatic information overload because of steadily increasing levels of book production. In the discussion, Cevolini's interpretation of the "ark" was challenged for its rather negative view of information management in manuscript cultures and its complimentary teleological belief in the inevitable progress of technological change.
The second day opened with a session dedicated to the cataloging of books, handwritten or printed, in Arabic, Hebrew, and Persian. The presentations by Christoph Rauch, Emile Schrijver, and Francs Richard, who all have worked as catalogers and librarians, combined an examination of the historical development of cataloging standards with observations about the impact of digitization on the access to books in the twenty-first century. Its chair was Guy Burak, a librarian at New York University and a legal historian of the Ottoman empire. Rauch used the history of the Berlin Staatsbibliothek's Arabic manuscript collection to highlight the importance of scholarly expertise for the cataloging of texts in Semitic languages which were not widely taught at nineteenth-century German universities. While Rauch presented the cataloging history of a state-owned collection, Schrijver explored the challenges posed by cataloging the books of a religious minority, and surveyed how the history of Hebrew bibliography reflects the precarious life of the Jewish diaspora in western Europe. Because of the hearty embrace of digitization for the preservation of Jewish Schriftkultur Schrijver examined how digital surrogates are changing the roles of both libraries and catalogs. Since readers increasingly rely on global online catalogs in order to access books as digital surrogates in global online collections, such as those of the National Library of Israel, what will happen to the relationship between a library's spatial organization and the systematics of its catalogs? Richard's presentation took as its starting point the cataloging practices in Muslim societies since the tenth and eleventh centuries. Although there is much evidence for vibrant library traditions in Turkey, Iran, and India, very few catalogs of historical library collections have come down to us. Richard observed that the librarian's personal responsibility for a collection under his care might have worked as a disincentive for the compilation of publicly available finding aids, since a catalog can also be used to control the work of the librarian. At the same time, Richard was sceptical about the current practice of 'digitize first, catalog later', arguing that digital surrogates of uncatalogd books are effectively inaccessible as no catalog can be searched for unidentified items. The discussion was dominated by questions about digital screens as today's omnipresent interface between readers, catalogs, and books, since some well-funded western libraries are encouraging readers to set up online accounts in order to create their own digital collection of the depository's holdings. Does the access to the contents of books through digital surrogates imply changing ideas of who owns the physical artifacts and consequently pays for their cataloging? What is the reader's responsibility for the physical artifact if she only is engaging with its digital surrogate as downloaded unto her own computer? We also observed that digital surrogates are accompanied by their own access barriers, since readers need a working internet connection in order to benefit from Open Access depositories such as Gallica.
The fourth session approached catalogs from the micro perspective of individual sample entries, and juxtaposed the British cataloging of Persian literature with the Ottoman cataloging of North African literature. It was chaired by Ronny Vollandt, a Semitist and a specialist of biblical manuscripts. Nilanjar Sarkar's case study was the entry on a manuscript copy of the Fatāwā-yi jahāndārī ("Imperial legal opinions") in the highly regarded and still indispensable Catalogue of Persian Manuscripts in the Library of the India Office (1903) by Hermann Ethé (1844–1917). Although Ethé was a very accomplished scholar of Persian literature, he did not recognize that the Fatāwā is a work of advice literature which originated in Dehli around 1350, and wrongly identified a work of belles-lettres as an anthology of historical legal opinions. Sarkar examined to which degree Ethé's cataloging error reflected British colonial attitudes to the knowledge traditions of pre-colonial Muslim India. Guy Burak and Dagmar Riedel used the entry on the Dalāʾil al-khayrāt ("Signs of good deeds") in the aforementioned Kashf al-ẓunūn to demonstrate that scholars inside and outside Muslim societies approached this alphabetic title catalog as a work of pragmatic literature which everyone could adapt and correct in accordance with their own particular needs. In different manuscript copies and printed versions of the Kashf, the entries on the Dalāʾil, which is a widely used prayerbook by the North African Sufi Ibn Jazūlī (1404–1465), vary considerably. These variances can nonetheless seem insignificant, since this prayerbook is so well known. In the discussion we returned to the point, made by Christian Jacob during the second session, that catalogs are never neutral collections of facts as their production cannot be independent from the ideological commitments of their compilers. But we also explored the importance of errors and misreadings for the transregional diffusion of knowledge.
The global historian Sebastian Conrad chaired the workshop's fifth and final session on catalogs of books related to East Asian societies. Michael Facius, Florence Hsia, and Joachim Kurtz discussed synchronicity in knowledge management, and challenged the evidence of transregional influence and interdependence in order to probe the nature of knowledge circulation. Facius analyzed how the library of the Tokugawa Shogunate (1603–1867) served as an important node in the knowledge networks of early modern Japan. He examined the relationship between the catalogs of the Shogunate Library and the Nagasaki commissariat's control of the import of books in Chinese and other foreign languages. Hsia used the historical development of sinological archives in early modern Europe to pursue the sociological dimensions of list-making. She examined in particular the challenges posed by the task of cataloging Chinese texts within the Jesuit tradition of bio-bibliographies, and the efforts of Thomas Hyde (1636–1703) to identify the Chinese books held at the Bodleian Library in Oxford. Joachim Kurtz took the torrent of publications translated into Chinese between 1895 and 1911 as an indicator and a factor in the drastic remaking of China's intellectual landscape in the waning years of the Qing dynasty (1644–1912). These catalogs were compiled by publishers as well as scholars and reformists, and range from thinly veiled advertisements to analytical reviews of new branches of learning. Taken together, they provide ample evidence for changing intellectual emphases, new epistemic ideals, and consequential taxonomic shifts that hastened the demise of China's imperial order with the end of the Qing dynasty.
In sum, we organized the workshop in order to examine catalogs as intellectual enterprises and material artifacts within a transregional framework. Its starting point was a gesture of inversion, since usually catalogs are consulted for reference purposes, and not studied in their own right. The workshop's focus on the comparative analysis of catalogs from a wide range of European, Middle Eastern, and East Asian societies allowed us to explore similarities and differences in their compilation, while being mindful of the dynamics between catalogers and readers. The intellectual generosity of all participants ensured stimulating debates that revealed the potential of not yet explored sources and yielded numerous new ideas for future research projects. Venturing beyond the comfort zone of one's own discipline is always a challenge, and we deeply appreciate that the Forum Transregionale Studien gave us the unique opportunity to take this risk.
From the last decades of the eighteenth century and for at least a century and a half, Britain and France dominated Orientalism as a discipline. The great philological discoveries in comparative grammar made by Jones, Franz Bopp, Jakob Grimm and others were originally indebted to manuscripts brought from the East to Paris and London. Almost without exception, every Orientalist began his career as a philologist.
Historiographical debates, when they stray beyond the internal logic of the field, generally discuss the social or political relevance of new paradigms or approaches, but rarely do they examine the extent to which our scholarship may be shaped by the institutional makeup of our profession.
In the historiography of Middle Eastern and Islamic Studies we concentrate on Orientalism and Islamophobia, since self-critique is even harder, when a scholarly discipline feels unfairly singled out and criticized. We are vocal in our critique of Orientalist scholarship which produced the Western mirage of the timeless Orient in the nineteenth century. But we are reluctant to provide further ammunition to those who are already gunning for us, since we are continually confronted with the question of why on earth anyone would study a civilization or a religion that is responsible for …—and everyone will draw on their own experience for the completion of this sentence: terrorism, oppression of women, religious fanaticism, etc. While much research in Middle Eastern and Islamic Studies necessarily focuses on contemporary Muslim societies, I find curious that in the last decade manuscripts and books in Arabic script have begun to attract much more attention. During the last years, François Dèroche, Adam Gacek, and Jan Just Witkam have regularly offered five-day introductions to Islamic codicology in Europe and North America. Historians and literary critics have published studies about Islamic book culture, drawing on statements preserved in literary sources and paratexts, such as ownership statements and reading certificates, though rarely connecting the literary evidence with the material evidence of the manuscripts and printed books themselves (e.g., the Special issue of JAIS 2012 on "The Book in Fact and Fiction in Pre-Modern Arabic Literature"). In research on the history of science, technology, and medicine, the trend is still to explore how a certain intellectual milestone was first reached in Muslim societies before anyone in Christian Europe managed to do so (e.g., the project on "Scientific Traditions in Islamic Societies: Intellectual, Institutional, Religious, and Social Contexts," McGill University). The follow-up question of what happened to all these grand ideas after their initial conception seems much less popular (e.g., the project of Sonja Brentjes and Jürgen Renn on "Islamicate Transformations of Knowledge," Max-Planck-Institut für Wissenschaftsgeschichte). Moreover, there is little interest in harnessing the advances in Humanities computing to improve access to this material evidence through the creation of digital catalogs. For the time being, we cannot match literary works with identified copies, whether these are accessible, alleged to be extant, or assumed to be lost, as there is neither a complete inventory of documented works written in a language that uses Arabic script (cf. Leuven Database of Ancient Books), nor a catalog of known copies of manuscripts in Arabic script (cf. Universal Short Title Catalog).
As regards the role of the Digital Humanities in research on the Islamic book, we seem largely content to limit their application to publishing on the Internet, though primarily as digitized book or article, and not as born-digital publication. While many scholars in Middle Eastern and Islamic Studies are maintaining personal websites and weblogs, employing Computer Science to answer research questions need be distinguished from digital publishing on the Internet. Significant resources continue to be dedicated to the production of digital surrogates, and the number of digitized manuscripts and printed books in Arabic script, many of which are available for free on the Internet, is steadily increasing. It is rarely noted, though, that free online access to the digital surrogates of insufficiently cataloged manuscripts and printed books does not automatically make their contents available. The proud press releases are usually very reticent about the indispensable cataloging, which has become a little appreciated and largely ignored activity since Edward Said first associated manuscripts with philology. Nonetheless, the consequences of insufficient cataloging in combination with poor bibliographical reference works are severe and far-reaching. As long as we have at best some random bits of information about some works and their extant copies, we have a very limited grasp of how the works to which we happen to have access are related to the intellectual life of any particular period of Middle Eastern history between the seventh century CE and the present. For example, there is no research on the best practices for assessing survival bias in any corpus of manuscripts or printed books in Arabic script.
Against this backdrop, it seems rather unlikely that in the foreseeable future scholars in Middle Eastern and Islamic Studies will obtain the institutional resources to embark on even one of these cataloging projects, be it the inventory of works or the inventory of their copies, however urgently they are needed. Their coordination will demand not only expertise in Middle Eastern and Islamic Studies but also experience with large-scale Digital Humanities projects and the development of a global network of participating institutions in order to guarantee its financial viability. The funding mechanisms for research in the Humanities in general and in Middle Eastern and Islamic Studies in particular provide few incentives for embarking on such a complex project which will primarily benefit future generations. Aside from the practical challenge that even the most generous grant cycle will be unable to accommodate a decades-long project, whoever will finally manage to embark on either project will probably not live long enough to see it reach maturity.
This dispiriting situation raises the practical question of how to design meaningful research projects that make the most creative use of the already available resources and digital tools. What seems feasible are clearly limited studies that examine Islamic books in synchronic and diachronic contexts. Synchronic projects would focus on book production in order to establish criteria for the cataloging of both the literary works and their material support, whether they are manuscripts or printed books, while diachronic projects would trace the circulation and reception of a range of literary works in Arabic and Persian from the Abbasid era (750-1258 CE) to the present. Both types of project necessitate the codicological analysis of manuscripts and bibliographical research on printed books, so that the project outcomes should combine the publication of a study, whether a book or an article, with an online depository for the accumulated codicological and bibliographical data. To establish these new publication standards for research about manuscripts and printed books in Arabic script could perhaps even serve as the first baby step towards the organization of an inventory of either works or copies, if scholars working on related subjects agree to contribute their codicological and bibliographical data to a shared Open-Access depository (cf. Open Context which organizes the review, documentation, and Open-Access publication of primary data in cultural heritage related fields).

The draft of of the never completed third volume of the Catalogue of the India Office Library's Persian manuscript collection, written by C. A. Storey (1888-1968), Reuben Levy (1891-1966), and A. J. Arberry (1905-1969), is now available as a digital surrogate on the BL's website (Mss Eur E207/1-38). The unit of digitization is the individual page, and it is impossible to use full-text search for finding information about particular works or specific copies.

Successful tanning depends on precise control of pH levels in the process. For that, you need Butan 7840LR, an alkaline basification agent that promotes optimal bonding to carboxyl groups by gradually and predictably raising the pH level in the bath. The result is superior neutralization and chrome fixation, batch after batch. With Butan 7840LR you'll reduce the risks often associated with basification and bring to market more uniform leathers. And that can bring you greater profitability. D232.

MINNEAPOLIS — Officials are investigating a multistate outbreak of hepatitis A potentially linked to fresh organic strawberries.
According to a press release from the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA), they're investigating 17 cases in the U.S., including one in Minnesota. Traceback data show the potential link with FreshKampo and HEB brands that were purchased between March 5 and April 25.
Officials are recommending anyone who purchased these strawberries during these dates, and then froze them, to throw them away. The FDA is also urging anyone who may have already eaten FreshKampo and HEB brands during that timespan, and is not vaccinated against hepatitis A, should consult a healthcare professional.
Officials also say if you think you have symptoms after eating these strawberries, you should consult a healthcare professional.

Cyanobacteria of the genus Prochlorococcus are the smallest and most abundant phytoplankters in the ocean. Temperature is a major influence on Prochlorococcus abundance and distribution in the ocean, but the physiological basis for this relationship is not well understood. In other microbes, lipid and fatty acid composition have been shown to be influenced by temperature, and temperature has also been proposed as a relevant factor for setting the elemental allocation in marine phytoplankton. In this study, we found that percentage of fatty acids unsaturation was negatively related with temperature in some Prochlorococcus strains, but this was not universal. Temperature had a significant linear positive effect on nitrogen and carbon cell quotas across all strains. As temperature increased 10˚C, nitrogen and carbon quotas rose by 40.0% and 34.6%, respectively. Individual strains displayed negative relationships between growth rate and phosphorus quota.
Studies in other photosynthetic organisms suggested that HOOH and temperature extremes act together as stressors. Importantly, it also has been shown that Prochlorococcus is highly susceptible to hydrogen peroxide (HOOH) and co-occurring heterotrophs such as Alteromonas sp. facilitate the growth of Prochlorococcus at the ocean surface by scavenging HOOH. To address the potential synergistic effects of temperature and HOOH on Prochlorococcus, we monitored the growth of environmental-relevant concentrations of cold-adapted (MED4) and warm-adapted (MIT9312) Prochlorococcus strains with different initial concentrations of HOOH under a range of temperatures. While not impacting the temperature optima for growth, higher concentrations of HOOH severely diminished the permissive temperature range for growth of both Prochlorococcus strains. At the permissive temperatures, the growth rates of both Prochlorococcus strains decreased as a function of HOOH, and temperature extremes increased susceptibility of photosystem II to HOOH-mediated damage. While these effects were manifest in both strains, they were more pronounced in the warm-adapted strain. Heterotrophic bacteria, serving as a proxy for the natural community, increased the Prochlorococcus growth rate under these temperatures and increased the growth temperature range (MED4), and this was attributed in part to their ability to remove HOOH from the medium.

The Secret Super Fruit: Bilberries
Bilberries are packed with antioxidants and powerful compounds called anthocyanins that may help prevent serious diseases while also boosting fitness and cognitive function. There's more than meets the eye when it comes to these little dark bundles of joy... and we're here to run you through the basics.
Berries have been used for thousands of years as a medicine and food. But it's only recently that the main health-promoting compounds in berries were identified as anthocyanins, which are a form of flavonoids. The anthocyanins in bilberries are visible to the eye as blue and red pigments, and are responsible for giving them their distinctive colour.
Often overlooked in favour of other more common berries, the benefits of bilberries are huge - and somewhat surprising. So much so, that British soldiers and pilots were known to eat these as they felt that they improved their vision.
What are Bilberries?
You may be asking yourself - what is a bilberry? Why have I never heard of this before? You'd be forgiven - these little super fruits aren't commonly on supermarket shelves.
Sometimes referred to as European blueberries, bilberries and blueberries are very similar in appearance. The key difference is that while blueberries are native to the United States, bilberries are native to Northern Europe. The other advantage that bilberries hold over their American cousins is that they contain higher levels of Vitamin C, Vitamin E and much higher levels of anthocyanins. Bilberries are also a lot more tasty - with an intense flavour, which is why they are particularly popular with those that try them.
What are the health benefits of bilberries?
Bilberries contain high levels of anthocyanins which are compounds in the flavonoid family of polyphenol phytochemicals. These compounds are said to be responsible for various health benefits including potential improvements to cardiovascular health, glucose control and reduced inflammation by combating oxidative stress, which is particularly helpful for reducing the muscle soreness you feel after exercise.
While research is ongoing, it's suggested that anthocyanins could help to inhibit the development of serious diseases such as cancer, heart disease and inflammation, and could also potentially limit or even reverse age-dependent deteriorations in memory and cognition.
As well as overall health benefits, the bilberry fruit brings some huge nutritional benefits, too.
Rich in nutrients
High antioxidant levels
Contains Vitamin C and K
High in manganese
Bilberries are an ingredient in several of the Innermost blends: The Strong Protein, The Health Protein and The Lean Protein. Recommended for anyone looking to improve their overall well-being and also relieve muscle soreness after an intense bout of exercise or weight-lifting.

So, I figured to appease you and to clear my conscience, I'll just blah-blah on about how droll things are, and whenever you're about to fall asleep, I'll flash a cute cat picture. I could even talk about my referral list, if we really run out of stuff to talk about and I want to become a complete cliche.
Let's see. I've been reading. I mentioned that. I finished Lullaby, which wasn't as scary as I thought it was going to be, but just the right amount of disturbing that I love about Chuck Palahniuk.
I'm in a group where we read plays and discuss them, or we see movies we've never seen but we're supposed to.
I know. I'm turning old right before your eyes. We had this once when I was in college, and we called it Avenue F, I think, and I'm pretty sure it lasted about three meetings before everyone got sick of each other. But this is a small group, and so far it's gone well. We just would have gotten together anyway, but now we're getting together with homework.
Shut up. It's good for me. It's healthy. I finally read The Homecoming. And last week we read Painting Churches, which I was the only one to like because I seem to be the only person that likes Tina Howe plays.
Anyway, this week it's Spinning Into Butter, which I read last night during a hot bath and I really enjoyed it. I think it's going to make for an interesting discussion, as it's about white guilt racism, something I've seen my entire life, no matter what city I was living in.
Hey. At least I'm using my degree for something.
Yes, it has a name. Shut up.
We're also putting the Anne Heche show up again, for six weeks at the Hudson Theater, starting January 10th. That's my little plug, right there. For those of you who live in the LA area, I promise it's a fun show.
What can you do to help? Well, I'm glad you asked me. Hmm? You didn't what? I can't hear you.
Anyway, if you're interested in supporting the Hollywood Free Clinic and would like to make my life a little easier, and you have a copy of Anne Heche's Call Us Crazy that you don't want anymore (hardcover or paperback), and you'd like to send it to me so we can sell it at the show, let me know. We're going to sell used copies at the show and donate the proceeds to the Hollywood Free Clinic, and it seems nobody bought this damn book, so any copies you might like to ship my way, me and all the other people that have had to use the Hollywood Free Clinic over the years would greatly appreciate it. Oh, and Anne Heche would too, I bet. Sure. Probably.
So my friend Jessica recommended this book to me, Life of Pi, and it sat on my shelf for a really long time. She's a really good judge of what I'd like. Last year she handed me a proof of The Lovely Bones before it was released. I was reading it on airplanes, as it was a time when I had to fly to Texas over and over in a month.
"What's that you're reading?" people would ask me, as the title is intriguing and the cover is pretty.
"The nation's next bestseller," I'd always answer.
One woman is convinced it's because of all the air travel I did that month, telling everyone all over the country to read that book.
Anyway, so Life of Pi. It just sat there, collecting dust, being brushed off longer than The Bonesetter's Daughter, a book I put off because I hate having to wait so long to read more Amy Tan. If she's going to take forever to write a book, I can take forever sitting down to read it. I was giving Amy Tan the passive-aggressive cold shoulder.
It's called The Culture Club, okay? There. Are you happy now? I'm in a silly group called The Culture Club.
I put it on the shelf and forgot about it.
I was giving Jessica every Chuck Palahniuk I had the other day when both of our eyes rested on Life of Pi. I pulled it out and handed it to her.
Oh, here. Yes. This is yours.
Pam! It just won the Booker Prize. Read it.
The Booker Prize? Oh, no. You just said the Kiss of Death.
It's a literature prize? For good books?
Have you read any other Booker Prize winners? It's always like, "I'm a sentence without punctuation, living a hard, gross Trainspotting-worthy life." First I tried that How Late It Was, How Late, which I quickly renamed How Hard I Was To Read, How Hard, or any of those Paddy Clarke Ha Ha Ha books.
Are you still speaking English?
There was one called e or maybe it was just a semicolon or something. The Booker Prize is a big warning light for me.
You just hate the Scottish.
Please, please, please try the book again. Get far enough to meet Pi. Once you meet Pi, I promise you'll be hooked.
If there's one "Me Da" in there, I'm putting the book down.
So, I tried it again. And I met Pi. And in one night, I've read half the book. In fact, until I meet Jessica this afternoon for lunch and Harry Potter, I'm going to sit still and keep reading. It's really, really good and I owe Jess a big apology for thinking she'd forgotten what kind of books I like to read.
Then she was going to read Trainspotting or Filth, but luckily I stopped her and told her to read Speaking With the Angel first, and if she liked his short story, then maybe she'd be able to stomach an entire novel.
I made Jessica read Bee Season, my favorite book from last year, and she loved it. So we're even.
And, in closing, here's Cal viciously attacking… his own foot.

Bruce Forman, Jazz Guitar's Renaissance Cowboy
In this JGT Video Podcast, Bob Bakert speaks to guitarist Bruce Forman about his new album, Reunion! and about a special guitar he used on the project.
Bob Bakert, Editor of JGT: So, where did you develop the skill to hold a conversation and play at the same time?
Bruce: I always seemed to be able to hold a conversation and play…hey…it's the same thing when you're playing! When I was a little kid playing classical piano, family and friends always talked to me, it didn't seem like a big deal? But the pivotal moment was my 24th birthday…in Denver. I was leading a quartet, and the crowd was buying shots for me…Mexican Flags (tequila, creme de menthe, and 151 rum…on fire!). It was a normal thing to play a really fast tune, and for me to stop the band and play some unaccompanied choruses. This night, it was Cherokee…really fast…and when the band stopped I kept playing, and then started telling jokes at the same time. That was when I realized I had this thing together, and since then, it's really no big deal.
Bruce Forman with John Clayton and Jeff Hamilton – "Reunion!"
Jazz Guitar Today reached out to people in the world of jazz guitar to ask some questions.
Peter Henriksen: Do you have a favorite "under 30" guitarist you've taught or worked with? Who is up and coming?
Bruce: Having been around for a while, I have a bunch of fave people who I've hung with both under and over 30. I don't like these questions, because I know I'm gonna leave some people and feel bad about it and worry about hurting their feelings. Some I have hung with, who are amazing players: Charles Altura, Julian Lage, Charlie Hunter, Colin Cook, Eli Koskoff..and there are a number of amazing students at USC right now who have the ability to rock the world…it all depends on where they go, and, of course…fortune/luck or whatever you want to call it?
Bruce and Dizzy Gillespie
Peter Henriksen: If you have one greatest takeaway from the pandemic and quarantine, what is it? What's the biggest change you see?
Bruce: I think it's too early to tell. A huge change has happened and we are at the very beginning of the ramifications of it. However, I prefer to dwell on the positive…it has enabled me to live at home for more than a week or two, (that's really cool, and I'd always thought it was for squares), having time to just play the music I like without any gig pressure on it has been a revelation, embracing certain aspects of technology and developing a community that is far wider than possible in the old paradigm are all positive aspects I think.
Bruce in Italy
Guitarist Ted Ludwig:What was the inspiration for Red Guitar?
Bruce: First of all, my relation to music, and everything, is storytelling. I write novels, I am a comedian (you've heard my playing?) and it's all about that fundamental human thing. There were already some great templates with The Red Shoes and The Red Violin. And I had gotten an amazing red guitar made by Stefan Sonntag. So, put together my passion for the music and its history, my infatuation with the instrument, my writing and poetry…my love of entertaining, and my ability to talk and play at the same time…I think it's kind of obvious…although it took me a while to put it all together and to take that step to commit to it.

Patrizia de Palo has been working in Monini logistics department for seventeen years.
At the beginning it wasn't easy to fit into a men only world but as time went on a marked aptitude for team work helped her to get along smoothly with everyone. Or almost, because now it is the others who have to keep up with her feverish pace!
I WAS IN JERUSALEM WHEN I HEARD I'D BEEN HIRED: IT WAS TRULY A PROPHETIC JOURNEY.
Patrizia working day is filled up with the many activities involved in warehouse management: preparing loads, sorting orders, tracing products and organizing the stock. And then there is the transport relations, especially important when there are delays before goods can leave the warehouse. Monini priority is to reduce the storage time but sometimes it might happen that, when trucks arrive, the goods are not ready for loading.
IT'S LIKE PLAYING MONOPOLY. THERE ARE UNEXPECTED EVENTS, PROBABILITY FACTORS AND CHALLENGES EVERY DAY.
Supplies for Italy and abroad retail outlets, restaurants and grand hotels leave from Patrizia office in Spoleto. Behind a stimulating but challenging task there is the satisfaction to supply good products, professionally and accurately together with a company which is attentive to consumer needs and those of its staff.
OVER THE YEARS THE DEPARTMENT HAS EVOLVED WITH NEW TYPES OF GOODS AND CLIENTS.
Over the years extra virgin olive oil has broken out of the exotic product niche to which it was confined abroad and become one of the product leaders in a new eating philosophy focusing on health and simplicity. This positive fact has opened up new horizons for top quality Italian products and, at the same time, a scenario in which Italian producers are not simply product guarantors but also exponents of a still to be discovered food culture if conscious choices are to be made.

Air conditioning in automobiles has come a long way from the giant blocks of ice used to cool down the interior of the car. Now, a vehicle can be climate-controlled with completely different settings for drivers and riders. And for those who live in hot climates the A/C can be your best friend on those scorching summer days. It's more than just a luxury – it's a necessity.
Many different factors go into making your car's A/C function right. Most of us are familiar with the common terms like Freon and fans, but there is another entire system that helps bring temperatures down. Understanding how they work will help you better gauge the health of your vehicle and know when to take it in for repair work – before the weather gets too hot.
The compressor serves as the hub. It takes the refrigerant (like Freon) and pressurizes it into cool air. Some compressors can even sense temperature changes.
When you make the shift to bring in air from the outside rather than recirculating, your compressor will know just how hot it is and when (or whether) to start the cooling process.
Compressors commonly fail due to leaky seals and inadequate lubrication. It is good practice to turn your A/C on periodically to take note of any potential problems in these areas.
And you know that big belt that turns your engine? The compressor is just one of the many components the belt also controls. The tail doesn't wag the dog.
Then condenser is found at the front of the radiator. It take the hot gases produced by the refrigerant and reduces the temperature and pressure, resulting in a liquid that moves on to the receiver, alternately known as a dryer.
There's a lot going on in the A/C, and because of all the moving parts, liquids and gases, a catchall preventing contaminants from spewing out of your air vents is required. This is where the receiver or dryer comes in. It uses desiccants to trap the harmful debris, moisture or liquid before the cold air transitions over to the ducts.
Similarly, an accumulator monitors, filters and stores excess refrigerant so as not to damage the compressor. If moisture from the condenser reaches the compressor, it can mix to create a damaging corrosive acid. Evaporators cool the air and remove the last bits of moisture before exiting the vent and keeping you cool and refreshed in the heat.
The thermal expansion or orifice tube keeps the two major components, the condenser and the compressor, balanced. It stands vigil over pressure, temperature and refrigerant levels to determine the safest amount of liquids that can pass through to the evaporator. Probably the most important part of the A/C, when this piece malfunctions, it can mean major problems to your whole unit.
Each of these components is housed in a single system, with the average lifespan varying depending on usage and the kind of climate in which you live.
Your car's A/C is a sealed unit. Much of what might be wrong may not be immediately visible; it is not something you need inspected or serviced unless you notice a change.
If the temperature of the air coming through the A/C vents is not as cold as it should be or you discover another possible issue with the system, schedule an inspection with Colony One today. We'll inspect, diagnose and fix the problem at hand to make sure you stay cool in the sweltering Houston heat.
