Out of the Fog (1941) Anatole Litvak
Mar2 by John Greco
"Out of the Fog" is based on a 1939 play called "The Gentle People" by Irwin Shaw. The play ran for a respectable four and half months on Broadway and had one heck of a cast that included Franchot Tone, Lee J. Cobb, Sam Jaffe, Sylvia Sydney, Elia Kazan, Martin Ritt and Karl Malden. It was produced by the legendary Group Theater and directed by the visionary Harold Clurman. The play was an anti-fascist parable (Shaw subtitled the play, A Brooklyn Fable) of the meek overcoming the arrogant and the powerful. In the play the two main characters were elderly gentle Jewish men, Jonah Goodman and Philip Anagnos, who are shaken down for five dollars a week in protection money by a smart aleck, stylishly dressed, wise ass gangster named Harold Goff (Tone). Goff also awakens the dreams and sexuality of Jonah's bored daughter Stella (Sydney) who has hopes of leaving her meaningless existence for a more exciting life. When Goff learns the two fishermen have money saved to buy a boat, he demands they hand the savings over to him too. In order to rid themselves of Goff's extortion and threats, the two fishermen lure him into their boat. Once they are out in the ocean they kill him and toss him overboard but not before taking his wallet filled with the money.
When Warner Brothers decided to make the film they were well aware some changes would have to be made. First they needed to softened the characters names or changed them completely so they would not be Jewish. Additionally, the Hays office would not allow the two men to not be punished for killing Goff, now played by John Garfield. Subsequently, in the film the two men cannot go through with shooting him. His death becomes an act of God when he falls overboard and drowns since he cannot swim.
Still, Goff represents the powerful, a man "with rocks" in his coat, easily tossing a lit cigarette on to a wooden boat setting it on fire and watching it burn with childish joy. Goff is a full blown bully, pushing his way around, full of insolence; he has no problem putting the moves on Stella, played by Ida Lupino, the daughter of Jonah Goodwin (Thomas Mitchell), one of the fishermen he is terrorizing. Sensing Stella's bored restlessness, Goff tells her everything she wants to hear and has been dreaming of, the fancy nightclubs, the parties, travel, a new and exciting life away from her dreary days in Brooklyn. Stella is a good kid but is lured by temptation and excitement into betraying her father and her own beliefs.
Goff is the most evil character John Garfield has ever portrayed. He never shows any indications of regret or vulnerability. When Jonah calls the police on Goff, he is dragged into court, however the judge releases him when he presents a "contract" of a loan signed by the two fisherman (earlier he actually forced them to sign it). Goff seeks revenge by beating the older man with a rubber hose. He shows no compassion, just an immoral racketeer as he stands tall over the beaten Jonah telling him how he knows he can get away with this because people are weak and unwilling to fight back. The strong survive and the weak will perish.
This is a pretty dark film both figuratively and literally. Much of the film takes place at night and quite a bit is fog bound, both adding to the emptiness and claustrophobic feeling the film conveys. James Wong Howe's photography is exceptional, though the film does suffers somewhat from being bound by obvious studio sets. Ida Lupino's performance is direct and upfront managing to convey both the loving daughter and the woman who desires a grander, wilder life than the one life has dealt her. The best performances though go to Thomas Mitchell and John Qualan as the two fishermen. The rest of the cast includes Eddie Albert, as Stella's decent but dull boyfriend George, and both Leo and Bernard Gorcey in supporting roles.
"Out of the Fog", despite its watering down from the play to meet the Hays Code restrictions, still makes no bones where it stands politically. The screenplay was by Shaw and Robert Rossen, and the film is nicely directed by Anatole Litvak.

Jeff Flugel says:
Good review of an interesting sounding film. I think Garfield, with his intensity and physicality, was a good choice to play the thuggish Goff and seems an improvement over Franchot Tone. I haven't seen this film but with that cast and with Howe's cinematography, there seems a lot to recommend it.
John Greco says:
Hi Jeff! Garfield is really nasty in this film. he's no anti-hero here just plain bad. The film does pop up on TCM once in a while so keep an eye out for it.
John, must admit that when I first saw this film I was slightly bewildered by it – by the sheer evil of Garfield's character, and also by the way that Ida Lupino allows herself to be seduced by the man who is bullying her father. When I read about its origins as an anti-fascist parable, suddenly it all made sense. Despite the ending being watered down from the stage play, I agree with you that it is still clear where the film stands politically. I do feel that the film really belongs to Thomas Mitchell, who is the lead in all but name, but Garfield and Lupino are both good even though they don't get the chance to show their full range. Litvak is a good director – everything of his I see makes me admire him more. Great piece here, John!
Thanks Judy!
It is surprising to see Garfield play such a out and out rotten person, and like you, I was a bit shocked by it the first time. I like Litvak's work too, he's always interesting to watch. Garfield and Lupino make a good team. They made a couple of films together, I wish they made more.
Patricia Nolan-Hall (Caftan Woman) says:
"Out of the Fog" has meant different things to me at different times. It impressed me very much as a youth and less so as a young adult. A recent viewing put it back on the pedestal. I'm not sure what it says about me or the film, but it says a lot of good about Garfield who always draws me in.
Patricia – The film still packs a punch. It's a dark film both visually and style wise. I do wish they did not have to water it down but that was the times. Thanks!!!
I do wish
Really great review, John, and a terrific addition to the blogathon. Thanks so much for participating!
I read in Mr. Garfield's bio that the lack of success of this film "indicated that the public wanted no part of a John Garfield presented in a wholly unsympathetic light."
I guess audiences loved him as the rebel, but not the evil rebel.
I am a Franchot Tone fan (though to a much lesser extent than I am a Garfield fan). It would be fun to see him in this role. Too bad those stage performances aren't on film!
Glad to have particopated Patti. I always thought it was surprising that he took such a bad role. Most stars do not want to be seen in such a bad light, but for Garfield I think the work was more important than his image as a star. Too bad the audiences of the day did not appreciate that.
The Lady Eve says:
John, I'd watch any Garfield or Ida Lupino film, so the two together is hard to resist (plus the added pleasure of Thomas Mitchell). Knowing the play's awkward journey to the screen explains why some elements may not have worked well. But I didn't have any problem with Garfield as an unrepentant thug – he was completely believable. He could've made a career of villains if he'd wanted to – and if he'd had the time. He died much too young.
Eve- Garfield is totally convincing but i guess audiences were not ready for to see one of thier favorite stars in such an evil role. He's terrific as is Lupino who is always a joy to watch. Mitchell, and I will add in John Qualen, are both a pleasure too. The film does have its problems but it's still a good fiick.
Wonderful review, for a film I have not yet seen. Looks like a great cast line up.. I have to admit.. John Garfield makes a perfect villain.
Dawn, he's truly nasty in this one. The cast is good and while overall not a great film,its good and certainly worth watching when you get a chance. Thanks!
doriantb says:
John, I knew that John Garfield wasn't afraid to play unsympathetic characters, but WOW, he was pure evil in OUT OF THE FOG! As our wonderful Blogathon hostess Patti put it so well, "I guess audiences loved him as the rebel, but not the evil rebel." That's another thing I liked about Garfield as a person and an actor, though. Just as Garfield wasn't afraid to tackle tough stage or film roles, he also wasn't afraid to confront tough real-life issues (sometimes to his peril, sadly). BRAVO on a terrific post, my friend, as always!
Thanks Dorian, yeah he was fearless as an actor and I know early in his career he felt trapped by Warners for always puttin him in the same kind of role, so this was certainly something different.
FlickChick says:
Great review, John. Garfield and Lupino – now that's a team that needs more exploration. They were very good together, weren't they? And no – we don't like our John Garfield all bad.
Flick Chick, yes, Garfield and Lupino did make a great duo. I loved them both in THE SEA WOLF too.
I love this film and, although I'm not even close to having seen all John Garfield's films, of the ones I have seen this is definitely one of my favorites! Yes, he was horrible in it but he played it so well and I adore Ida Lupino, making the movie even better for me! Wonderful review and thank you for reminding me how much I enjoy this one:)
Thanks Victoria, I envy your journey and discovering new Garfield films. I still have a few, but not too many that I need to catch.
R. D. Finch says:
John, I enjoyed your post on this film. Garfield usually played tough but had a repressed sensitive streak that allowed the female lead to reach him and redeem him, a variation I suppose of the Beauty and the Beast idea. As you note, though, there is no redeeming soft center here, and Garfield is thoroughly convincing as a sadistic thug. Judy made a couple of comments I found quite apposite–that it's a big stretch to accept Lupino's fascination for him when he is such a threat to her father, and the way Thomas Mitchell really walks off with the film. I found Garfield and Lupino to be well matched, though. (As I recall, her biographer quoted her as having nothing but good things to say about him.) They were even better, I thought, in "The Sea Wolf."
R.D. i agree about THE SEA WOLF, a film I love watching. Mitchell is excellent in this film. Actually, the only actor whose performance I found wanting was Eddie Albert. I ithought the role was weak and he comes of that way too. Thanks!
Le says:
The stage cast was already spectacular, and for sure many changes had to be made. It's interesting that names had to be less Jewish, considering that years later Garfield was an important supporting character in Gentlemen's Agreement. He did many dark films, but this darker role seems very interesting!
Don't forget to read my contribution to the blogathon! 🙂
Will check out your review!
Classicfilmboy says:
I reviewed this a year or two ago and agree with much of your assessment, although I was disappointed by the movie overall. I like your history at the beginning, which I didn't know.
CFB – It's an interesting film without being a great one. Thanks. Will hunt for your review.
Paulie says:
nice review! that cast for the stage version is fascinating! i would love to see Tone's take on that character! One doesnt usually think of him in that kind of role but he was so awesome as the deranged psychopath in the Phantom Lady i'm sure he was worth seeing in that play as well. i agree, Goff is JG's most evil character and he was quite convincing in the part. Litvak did some interesting work. his films are always a bit "different", much in the same way Jean Negulesco's films are.
Thanks! When i first read Tone was iin the stage version I had a hard time picturing him in the role. Would have been interesting to see. for sure. I love much Litvak's work I think he has been underrated. Negulesco is interesting but I need to watch more of his work to get a handle on him.
How many times does John Qualen say Jonah (Yona) in this film, 🙂 ?
Half his dialogue consisted of Jonah! (LOL) He was very good though!

Most of you are probably aware of the vast Kindie Rock scene out there. Here are some of our current favorites that are in steady rotation at our house:
BRIAN VOGAN AND HIS GOOD BUDDIES, BVGB
This is the 6th album from the Good Buddies and it delivers everything you come to expect from them, awesome sound, funny, poignant lyrics, and a vast exploration of well-executed musical styles. You'll find ballads, klezmer, pop songs, and an alterna-rock, feedback-laden track called "I'm a Nasty Cavity" to round out the mix. Brian Vogan channels the spirit of childhood in his albums. He is regularly inspired by his work with children at the Childhaven schools in Seattle. We ***LOVE*** Brian Vogan and his Good Buddies and hope you do too, take a listen!
Dinosaur in My Drawer
I'm a Nasty Cavity
Marla Has Two Moms
RECESS MONKEY, Hot Air
More Kindie Rock greatness out of Seattle ( we swear we are not biased) with Recess Monkey's latest album. Beautifully crafted, this album presents itself as a optimistic, Beatles-esque journey through a day-in-the-life of a child's mind space. All three band members are elementary school teachers whose goal is to publish a kindie-rock album per year. This is their 12th album released and last year, it garnered Parent's Choice Award Gold Medal. Take a listen!
Lighter Than Air
Penguinese
Brian Vogan and his Good Buddies and Recess Monkey are a part of the Kindiependent Collective, a group of indie artists who are passionate about cultivating a vibrant kids music scene in the Pacific Northwest.
FRANCES ENGLAND, Explorer of the World
Bay area singer, songwriter, kindie rocker extraordinaire released her latest album, "Explorer of the World", April 1st of this year. The album's tone is sweet, quiet and authentic. Frances England's style lands somewhere between folk and acoustic alternative rock. Her hooks are catchy and her lyrics capture the essence of childhood wonderment. There is a lot of depth to this album and is absolutely worth listening to while relaxing, doodling, or (more realistically) while you are diligently shuttling your children and their friends to their next activity. Listen to these tracks and be transported.
Explorer of the World
There are also some noteworthy original and cover tracks have recently popped up in our children's listening requests.
JACK WHITE AND THE ELECTRIC MAYHEM, You are the Sunshine of my Life
Jack White. Muppets. Enough said. Jack White's guest appearance on the new "Muppet Show" prompted the release of a cover of Stevie Wonder's "You are the Sunshine of My Life", which, apparently, is Kermit and Miss Piggy's song (they are creatures of the 70s after all…). Below is a clip from the season finale where Jack White attempts to get the frog and the pig back together.
http://www.rollingstone.com/tv/news/see-jack-white-sing-you-are-the-sunshine-of-my-life-with-the-muppets-20160301
DAVID BOWIE, Kooks
The loss of David Bowie at the beginning of this year had me playing a lot of old Bowie albums in the car. A lot. The song "Kooks" from David Bowie's early album "Hunky Dory" came so often requested by my daughter that I wondered whether anyone from the Kindie Rock scene had covered it. Lo and behold, Elizabeth Mitchell plays a cover of "Kooks" on her 2012 album "Blue Clouds". Her cover is sweet, folky, and anchors the track solidly back to childhood and new parenthood, but, you know, sometimes you just can't beat the original. Take a minute to revisit the Bowie original.
Kooks
RENEE & FRIENDS, Starfish and Coffee (featuring Maya Rudolph)
Another pick inspired by a more recent, huge loss, Prince's Starfish and Coffee covered by Renee Stahl featuring guest vocals by Maya Rudolph has become a part of our "tribute" listening at home. Renee & Friend's version, from her latest album, "Simpatico", has a more college coffee house feel than Prince's original version. Yet, it is still charming and is worth listening to alongside the original. It is good to expose your children to variety! Here is Renee & Friend's version, and below it, a link to Time Magazine's tribute post featuring the late artist, Prince performing Starfish and Coffee on the Muppet Show.

Behavior & Appearance
Why Does My Dog Tilt His Head? | Hill's Pet
Strange Behaviors You've Probably Noticed in Your Dog
Dogs are so closely tied to humans that at times they even resemble us in their behaviors. When a dog acts like a child, reaching to be picked up or demanding that we watch them play with their toys, we hardly bat an eye at their behavior. Some dog tendencies, on the other hand, are so uniquely dog-like that they can't help but remind us that we're dealing with a separate species. Why do dogs tilt their heads when we speak to them? Why do they chase their tails? Here are the answers for at least some educated guesses on these and other quirky dog behaviors.
Why Do Dogs Tilt Their Heads?
While head tilting has never been studied scientifically, according to Mental Floss, dog behaviorists have a number of theories as to why your dog sometimes cocks his head to the side when you speak to him.
He's trying to understand you. Dogs actually understand the meanings behind a number of words and voice inflections. It's possible that when your dog appears to be listening attentively by cocking his head, that's exactly what he's doing. He's listening for words, phrases and voice inflections that have positive meanings and associations.
He's trying to zone in on your voice. While dogs have excellent hearing, their ability to pinpoint the source and location of a sound is actually worse than that of a human. It could be that tilting the head helps a dog identify where the sound of your voice is coming from.
He's trying to see you better. A theory put forth in Psychology Today points out that a dog's muzzle partially blocks his view of your face. Tilting his head helps him see around his muzzle so he can read your entire facial expression and pick up on cues that tell him whether you're happy with him.
He knows it's cute ... sort of. While your dog probably doesn't actually understand the concept of cuteness, he does understand that you respond positively when he engages in this adorable behavior, which reinforces it. So he keeps doing it deliberately to get a positive reaction.
Why Do Dogs Kick with Their Back Feet after Relieving Themselves?
Dogs are territorial by nature. Whenever they relieve themselves, this serves as a territorial marker, according to the American Kennel Club. However, because many animals mark their territory in this fashion, dogs attach an additional message letting other animals know that the deposit was left behind specifically by them. Vetstreet adds that dogs have glands in their paws that secrete pheromones when they scratch their back paws in the earth. Essentially, this is your dog's way of adding his signature to his territorial marker.
Why Do Dogs Circle Before Lying Down?
This behavior is most likely a holdover from before dogs became domesticated, says Vetstreet. Your dog's wild ancestors would most likely circle the ground in order to soften the dirt or tamp down grass or leaves and make a little nest in which to lie. Scratching prior to lying down is also tied to this ancestral practice. Dogs in the wild would dig a hollow in the ground to sleep in, which would serve to regulate body temperature and provide some protection from the elements. These behaviors have apparently become so deeply ingrained in the species that even the cushiest indoor bed won't prevent your dog from doing them from time to time.
Why Do Dogs Chase Their Tails?
As with head tilting, tail chasing has a number of possible causes, says Canine Journal. Some dogs appear to chase their tails simply because it's fun or to alleviate boredom. Some dogs also do it to express excitement or a desire to play. And dogs with high prey drives are likely to chase after anything that moves in their field of vision, including their own tails.
However, tail chasing isn't always fun and games for your dog. It could also be a sign of something more serious, such as a medical condition or an anxiety disorder. If your dog is a frequent tail chaser, you should talk to your veterinarian about the following possibilities:
He has a medical or skin condition. Problems with the anal glands might be causing your dog to turn in circles trying to reach his posterior and provide some relief, which looks a lot like tail chasing. Similarly, flea allergy dermatitis might be causing his rump to itch like crazy, and he's simply trying to reach the itch.
He has high cholesterol. This might sound like a strange reason for tail chasing, but according to Vetstreet, a study published in the Journal of Small Animal Practice found that tail chasing occurs more frequently in dogs with high cholesterol. One theory is that the extra cholesterol blocks the flow of hormones that control mood and behavior, causing dogs with this condition to be anxious or excitable.
He has obsessive-compulsive disorder. OCD is an anxiety disorder that is fairly common to dogs, and frequent tail chasing is a common symptom of this disorder. One way to tell if this behavior might be related to OCD is to see if your dog can be easily distracted from it. If not, or if he also displays other obsessive behaviors, you should discuss the possibility of OCD with your vet.
Of course, if your dog doesn't chase his tail very often, or if he only does it when he's clearly excited or it's time to play, then it's most likely nothing to worry about. Still, it might be worth mentioning it to your vet during his next checkup, just to be on the safe side.
Why Dogs Scoot Across the Carpet?
If you are a dog parent, you have undoubtedly seen your dog scoot his bottom across the carpet or grass from time to time. While you might think it is funny, it is actually a sign of an issue for your pup. When he scoots, he is trying to soothe an uncomfortable or irritated bottom. The irritation can be caused by a number of things from inflamed anal sacs to tape worms to allergies. If the problem persists more than just once or twice it is best to take your dog to the veterinarian to have him checked out. Your vet can help you diagnose the issue as well as provide you with treatment plans to prevent it in the future. While you may get a good laugh out your poor buddy scooting across the floor, remember that he is in an uncomfortable state and that it's his bottom that is scooting across your floor, just think about that for a second.
Why Do Dogs Sniff Each Other's Butts?
We know, we know, we have the 411 on dog butts apparently, but admittedly you're probably curious. Dogs sniffing each other's rumps is nothing new to dog parents. In fact, it is probably one of the first things you notice when you introduce your new pup to another dog because it seems so abnormal and contrary to human behavior. But for dogs it's actually quite normal.
Dogs have an incredible sense of smell, 10,000-100,000 times better than humans, and they use that sense of smell to investigate other dogs through their derrière. While it seems disgusting to us, it actually is a wave of discovery for dogs. Dogs have anal sacs that produce pheromones and scent molecules that tell your pup a lot about their new friend including age, gender, diet, reproductive status, and more. While it is their way of saying hello, they're getting in a full conversation with a few whiffs. This is why you'll notice that dogs that meet often and know each other quite well don't succumb to butt-sniffing very often. So, while you might think it is disgusting and you're trying to prevent your pup from partaking in a butt-to-nose greeting, just remember it's their instinctive way of getting to know each other better.
Dog tendencies can seem quirky and, at times, downright strange from a human perspective. But when you think like a dog, they start to make a lot more sense. If you're someone who's ever asked, "Why do dogs tilt their heads?" or another question relating to your dog's behavior, having a better understanding of dog psychology may help you feel closer to your furry friend.

Jonah Lopin, CEO of Crayon, a software developing startup, works in a trendy open office space in downtown Boston. Even though he's CEO, he doesn't have an office where he can shut the door. There's a lot of noise from his co-workers. When he needs to concentrate, he puts on noise canceling headphones and plays the recording of a fan.
"Somehow when the fan is going, it clicks off that part of the brain that's anticipating interruptions and I'm able to focus," Lopin said.
Music has long been used to boost productivity in the workplace. Factories and offices pipe music in. But changes in the nature of work, office spaces and technology now have workers opting for sounds that don't quite qualify as music.
There's been an uptick in the sale of ambient sound recordings, part of the industry of sounds marketed to help people focus. Will Henshall, CEO of the audio service Focus@Will, said such products are especially attractive to tech workers, designers and entrepreneurs, and that the demand is growing. "We think the market is globally upwards of possibly $500 to $700 million market in the next three years," he said.
That particular track has had over 12 million views. The sounds that people choose vary widely. Kaite Rosa, marketer at Payfactors, a data management startup in Braintree, Massachusetts, listens to a recording of murmur in a coffee shop.
Rosa said she needs that controlled background noise to think. Her least favorite sound to work to? Complete silence.

Will I miss anything if I watch Dragon Ball Z Kai?
What are the 5 Kai in the anime?
The Ginyu Force were defeated by the Z Fighters and sent to Hell, which was rather impressive considering King Kai considered them to be most fearsome group in the universe, and at least five times stronger than Goku prior to training.
However, both were eventually promoted with Chronoa becoming Supreme Kai of Time while Zamasu became an apprentice Supreme Kai under Gowasu. This shows that Kais can be promoted to the rank of Supreme Kai. The King of the Demon Realm is that portion of the universe's equivalent of a Kai.
Is Supreme Kai higher than Grand Kai?
Grand Kai is considerably stronger than the other Kais, and is known to be the greatest fighter in the four quarters of the universe.
Is Beerus above Supreme Kai?
Beerus is way stronger and doesn't seem to like being bossed around, so even if supreme kai is higher rank on the books, in reality Beerus dominates.
Unlike Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood or the Berserk show, DragonBall Z Kai is a revision of DBZ and not a remake. Kai primarily consists of retouched scenes from DBZ, with a few new scenes added in.
First off, Dragon Ball Z Kai doesn't include anything from Dragon Ball, which is the story of Goku as a child. Secondly, the main difference is that Kai lacks the filler content of the original Dragon Ball Z, and stops at the end of the Cell saga. By filler I mean content not originally in the manga.
Who is King Kai in Dragon Ball Z?
In the Dragon Ball Z: Bojack Unbound movie, King Kai explains that in the past, he and the other three Kais (South, East, and West) took it upon themselves to stop the evil galactic thug Bojack. To do so, they combined their power and imprisoned Bojack and his followers on a planet (a star in the dub) at the far end of the galaxy.
Is Grand Kai in Dragon Ball manga?
North Kai and South Kai are the only two of the five Kais of Universe 7 that appear in the Dragon Ball manga . Although not appearing, Grand Kai is mentioned twice in the manga, by Piccolo and Dende in Majin Buu Saga.
They are called the North Kai (this position is held by King Kai in the local Earth galaxy), the West Kai, the South Kai, and the East Kai. The fifth one is a Grand Kai who oversees them all.

This article describes the development of a lipidomic platform consisting of a 4000 QTRAP mass spectrometer and a self-installed sample inlet system to indentify and quantify 12 phospholipid and five sphingolipid classes from lipid-rich brain tissues of mouse, duck, and salmon. The total mass spectrometry analysis time per sample was 30 min, including 14 min for direct infusion for phospholipids and sulfatide in precursor ion scanning mode or neutral loss scanning mode, and 16 min for liquid-chromatographic separation of ceramide, sphingomyelin, monohexosylceramide, and dihexosylceramide in multiple reaction monitoring mode. The method was fully validated in terms of linearity, detectability, recovery, and repeatability, with satisfactory results for all targets. We individually quantified 307, 308, and 330 lipid species from 17 lipid subclasses, and obtained total amounts of 57.2, 61.7, and 53.1 mg/g wet brain for mouse, duck, and salmon tissues, respectively. Phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine, and sphingomyelin were the major lipids in all the brain samples, whereas phosphatidylinositol occurred at a relatively higher level in the salmon sample. For phospholipids, sphingolipids, and minor lysophospholipids, differences in the identity of the molecular species, their distributions, and their relative amounts as well as the contribution of each lipid subclass to the whole polar lipidome were found. Palmitic acid (16:0), stearic acid (18:0), lignoceric acid (24:0), oleic acid (18:1), nervonic acid (24:1), arachidonic acid (20:4), and docosahexaenoic acid (22:6) were found as the main saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated fatty acids in samples from the different species, but eicosapentaenoic acid (20:5) and docosahexaenoic acid (22:6) were more abundant in the salmon brain sample. The results are in good agreement with those in previous reports obtained from the relevant tissues, providing a reliable basis that could be extended to clinical research and resource evaluation.

Many firms still not prepared for US dollar Libor transition
Paul Golden
With less than a year to go until the cessation of Libor for US dollar-denominated contracts, market participants seeking a smooth transition face a number of challenges.
At a Benchmark Strategies Forum meeting back in March, International Swaps and Derivatives Association chief executive Scott O'Malia noted that while Secured Overnight Financing Rate (Sofr) has changed trading conventions in the interdealer market for linear US dollar swaps, cross-currency swaps and non-linear derivatives, it was still important to encourage participants in other market segments and geographies to switch from US dollar Libor.
Since then, volatility in capital markets, specifically lack of deal activity in the leveraged loan market where issuers would normally revisit existing debt, has slowed progress.
Julien Rey, S&P Global
US financial institutions must get their operations in order so that the operational legacy of Libor doesn't linger, says Yann Bloch, vice-president product management Americas at NeoXam.
"This means ensuring the most up-to-date technology is in place to easily be able to automatically transfer thousands of Libor-linked contracts over to the new risk-free rate," he says.
However, there is no one-size-fits-all approach with respect to data or technical functionality for the transition, says Tal Reback, director at KKR with responsibility for leading the firm's global Libor transition.

For the last few months, 34-year-old Sunil Singh has been struggling with kidney failure and has been diagnosed with end-stage kidney failure which is the most severe form of the condition.
"His sons miss their father. Their father is the brave and hearty one at home. Seeing him sick and bedridden has scared them. They keep asking when he will come back and things will become normal", said Sunil's brother, Durgesh.
Ever since Sunil was young, he has worked very hard. He has needed to look after his parents, works even harder to look after his wife and two children. He had been doing well for himself until that time when everything simply came crashing down.
A few months back, Sunil was diagnosed with kidney failure. He needs dialysis thrice a week. As of now, his treatment has come to a point where it is no longer working. The doctors have given up on him unless he undergoes an urgent kidney transplant.
Sunil has always worked hard to ensure that his sons had a childhood different from him - without despair and poverty. He worked in a fabric shop earning Rs 100 per day. While not enough to look after a family in a city like Mumbai, he constantly strove harder by working overtime to make ends meet. His wife is a homemaker and Sunil is the only earning member in the family.
But his dreams were cut-short by kidney disease. He needs frequent dialysis and has no energy left. His health has made him incapable of working. If he doesn't get a transplant soon, his health will fade away and shatter the life he so carefully built for himself.
In just a month, the family has spent over 2 lakhs on treatment and have no resources left. Sunil's mother is willing to donate her kidney to her son, but it will be for nothing if he doesn't get the funds to undergo surgery for the transplant.
Sunil's family is all dependent on him as he is the only earning member of the family. His younger brother is in Kolkata pursuing his studies and stays with his father, who is also a daily-wage worker. His children, Arjun and Bhim, are both in school and their education is also expensive. In this condition, he is unable to work and at present, has no source of income leaving him and his family in a fix.
The only treatment now for Sunil is to undergo a transplant for which the treatment cost amounts to around 6 lakh Rs. Unfortunately, Sunil does not have the funds to pay for the transplant and needs our help.
Your contribution can help Sunil undergo the treatment he deserves before it is too late.

The application was designed by a group of European expats in San Francisco, most notably Joel Gascoigne and Leo Widrich. Gascoigne is currently the CEO of Buffer. By December 2017, the team had reached 69 people working remotely from 50 cities in different parts of the world, more than 4.5 million registered users and over $16 million in annual revenue.
Buffer began its development in October 2010 in Birmingham, United Kingdom by co-founder Joel Gascoigne, who established the idea of the social media application while he was in the United Kingdom. Once he developed the idea he created a landing page to see if enough people were interested in the product to make it a profitable venture. After reaching a critical mass of registrations, Gascoigne built and designed the first version of the application software over a span of 7 weeks.
On November 30, 2010, the initial version of Buffer was launched. It contained limited features which only allowed access to Twitter. Four days after the software's launch Buffer gained its first paying user. A few weeks after this, the number of users reached 100, and then that number multiplied to 100,000 users within the next 9 months.
In July 2011, the cofounders decided to move the startup venture from the United Kingdom to San Francisco in the United States, and Buffer was converted into an incorporation. Whilst in San Francisco, the cofounders dealt with the San Franciscan startup incubators AngelPad. This was due to the increase in cost after moving from Birmingham. Throughout December 2011, cofounders Joel and Leo were able to secure 18 investors to their company, after being refused by 88% of the people they met with to offer an investment to their company. The investors include Maneesh Arora, the founder of MightyText, Thomas Korte, the founder of AngelPad, and Andy McLoughlin, the co-founder of the software company Huddle.
Due to visa issues with the co-founders, the company's base shifted to Hong Kong in January 2012. Then in August 2012, following more visa issues, it migrated again to Tel Aviv, Israel. In October 2012, Joel Gascoigne reported that "1.5-2% of users are on the paid plan, so we're currently on a $800,000 annual run rate". In May 2013, the company's base shifted back to the United States, after the co-founders' visa predicaments were resolved.
Buffer allows users to schedule posts sent through the application to the user's social media accounts. This feature can schedule and send posts to Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, Pinterest and Google+. There are various default time slots in the application, which are based on the times during the day when social media users are most active online. However, Buffer does allow its users to mend or remove the default time slots if they wish to do so . The free version of the application allows a maximum limit of 10 posts to be scheduled at any given time, and only allows the management of one social media account per social media website. Buffer also contains features that give post suggestions to users, and gives information on the number of clicks, retweets, likes, favorites, mentions and potential views each post has, which is based on the number of feeds that single feed would show up on.
Browser: allows the application to work as downloaded extensions for three browsers, Google Chrome, Safari and Mozilla Firefox.
Mobile: allows the application to be installed on iOS systems and Android phones.
Newsreader: allows the application to be integrated with various newsreader applications, such as Flipboard and Zite.
Buffer offers a paid plan, named Pro, which gives paying users access to additional features, such as the Feeds feature that adds an RSS feed to a user's Buffer profile, displaying suggested links from external websites chosen by the user. Additional features include analytics for the number of posts sent out and the number of active users over a span of time. The plan also allows an increased limit of 100 posts at any single time, and the option to manage 8 social account profiles.
Buffer for Business produced over 10% of the company's total revenue in December 2013. In 2014, the app was used by over 2,500 publishers and agencies. Organizations that use Buffer for Business include About.com, Fortune Magazine, and Business Insider.
After its establishment in 2010, Buffer's total revenue per year increased to $1 million in January 2013, and then crossed $2 million in September of the same year through the growth of customers using the application. By September 2013, Buffer gained 1 million users, with around 16,000 paying users. The number of posts shared through Buffer application crossed 87,790,000 posts and the number of accounts that were used through the application reached 1,266,722, with an average of 70 posts per account. By February 2014, the number of Buffer users reached 1.3 million. The organization's annual revenue reached $3,900,000, a 38.3% increase since December 2013.
In December of 2015, Buffer acquired Respondly, a social media customer service and brand monitoring tool, which it has since rebranded to Reply. According to the terms of the contract, the cost of the acquisition was not released.
Buffer is partnered with various other software applications and companies. Most notably, Buffer is an official Facebook Marketing Partner under Community Management.  Additionally, Buffer has partnerships with Wordpress, Twitter, Zapier, IFTTT, Feedly, Pocket, Reader, and Quuu.
Buffer's team uses multiple platforms for marketing, including blogs, emails and the social media websites Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube. Their marketing team works remotely from 6 time zones  and includes their community team.
In October 2013, Buffer's system was hacked, allowing the hackers to get access to many users' accounts. This resulted in the hackers posting spam posts through many of the user's social media accounts. On October 26, 2013, Buffer was temporarily suspended as a result of the hacking. Co-founder Joel Gascoigne sent an email to all users, apologizing about the issue and advising Buffer users about what steps they should take. Buffer was then unsuspended within the same week.
In March 2015, Pablo by Buffer, the social media image creation app, was launched. Its aim is to create engaging pictures for social media within 30 seconds.

would this be the problem? i'm not familiar with vag, how do i reprogram it. how come it didn't come up before? i installed the pc16 at least 2 weeks ago.
Did you clear the code? If so, how long before it came back?

Living in an RV full-time isn't for everyone. It may not even be for us, who knows? As we explore that question in random places across the US and Canada, we post resources to help make RV living easier and more enjoyable for others, here. Many of these articles include checklists that we've found useful or book and product recommendations. Others are just insights into life on the road.
If you're interested specifically in downsizing, roadschooling, gear for your RV, or RVing with kids we have separate sections where we cover those topics in detail.


Anyone know how to find what username/password it wants or how to get around this? I mean, I just plugged it in and it worked so there was never any creating passwords about it.
The manual for the router should contain the default user name and password as well as the instructions on how to change it.
If you do not have a hard copy of the manual, Google is your friend.
Yeah, the book is long gone but the no username / password: admin worked!
I would recommend changing the pass and/or setting a username at some point in the very near future.

Q: How to escape special characters? I'm trying to remove songs via a bash shell for loop yet removing a file like this
while read item; do rm "$item"; done < duplicates

keeps getting caught up on song name.  Is it possible to get around this?  My song titles might look like this:
/home/user/Music/Master List's Music/iTunes/iTunes\ Music/John\ Mayer/Room\ for\ Squares\ \[Aware\]/07\ 83.m4a
/home/user/Music/Master List's Music/bsg\ season\ 1\ \(Case\ Conflict\ 1\)/06\ A\ Good\ Lighter.mp3
/home/user/Music/Master List's Music/Nino\ Rota/The\ Godfather\ Pt.\ 3/14\ A\ Casa\ Amiche.m4a

as you can see, in order to remove an item I can have no %.()[] or anything else without being escaped unless it's the . before the file extension obviously.  Is there a way I can escape special characters like this?
For instance, I used sed to turn the %20 into spaces:
cat duplicates | sed 's/%20/\\ /g' > clean_duplicates

The output I'm looking for looks like this:
/home/user/Music/Master\ List\'s\ Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/John\ Mayer/Room\ for\ Squares\ \[Aware\]/07\ 83.m4a
/home/user/Music/Master\ List\'s\ Music/bsg\ season\ 1\ \(Case\ Conflict\ 1\)/06\ A\ Good\ Lighter.mp3
/home/user/Music/Master\ List\'s\ Music/Nino\ Rota/The Godfather\ Pt\.\ 3\/14\ A\ Casa\ Amiche.m4a

A: Update To address the actual url-decoding (I missed it before):
while read line; do printf "$(echo -n $line | sed 's/\\/\\\\/g;s/\(%\)\([0-9a-fA-F][0-9a-fA-F]\)/\\x\2/g')\n"; done < input

Output:
/home/user/Music/Master List's Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/John Mayer/Room for Squares [Aware]/07 83.m4a
/home/user/Music/Master List's Music/bsg season 1 (Case Conflict 1)/06 A Good Lighter.mp3
/home/user/Music/Master List's Music/Nino Rota/The Godfather Pt. 3/14 A Casa Amiche.m4a

So in order to delete those files, e.g. redirect the cleaned output to a file:
while read line
do
    printf "$(echo -n $line | sed 's/\\/\\\\/g;s/\(%\)\([0-9a-fA-F][0-9a-fA-F]\)/\\x\2/g')\n"
done < duplicates > cleaned_duplicates

while read file; do rm -v "$file"; done < cleaned_duplicates

If you prefer to store the names into a script files using explicit shell character escaping you could do
while read file; do printf "rm -v %q\n" "$file"; done < cleaned_duplicates > script.sh

Which should result in script.sh containing:
rm -v /home/user/Music/Master\ List\'s\ Music/iTunes/iTunes\ Music/John\ Mayer/R
rm -v /home/user/Music/Master\ List\'s\ Music/bsg\ season\ 1\ \(Case\ Conflict\
rm -v /home/user/Music/Master\ List\'s\ Music/Nino\ Rota/The\ Godfather\ Pt.\ 3/

How Sydney bar Bulletin Place stays at the top of its game, five years in
Bulletin Place before service.
Story by Sam Bygrave
It's customary to begin a profile on a bar like Sydney's Bulletin Place listing their achievements. Now in its fifth year (they turn five years old this December), they've won the Cocktail Bar of the Year award at the Bartender Magazine Australian Bar Awards an unprecedented four years in a row, and figured on the World's 50 Best Bars list each year since opening.
IT'S ALL down to three things if you ask co-owner Rob Sloan.
"Respect the produce, keep it simple, and just be nice to people," he says.
Easy, right? Well, kind of.
Bulletin Place began back in December of 2012, opening just before Christmas, as an effort between Sloan and co-owners Tim Philips and Add Ruiz. They'd all worked at Melbourne institution Black Pearl at one point or another, and they coalesced around a simple idea; take a small, 50 person space in the then barren cocktailing district of Sydney's north CBD, use only fresh, seasonal produce to craft classic drinks without gimmicks (aside from the odd fruit-driven pun), and create a new cocktail menu every day of five drinks. Every day.
They started with bare walls and bare-bones furniture — the joke was that the ice machine cost more than the decor — and relied on their hospitality and their drinks to bring in the punters. And the punters came.
Since then they've opened a second venue, Dead Ringer, in Surry Hills, and Ruiz has stepped away from the business to pursue his dreams in Tasmania.
Paul Hammond, who shares a background with the UK's Match Group with Philips and operations director David Hobbs, came on board as bars manager.
"It's a huge transition for us going from Adi who was here from day dot, and it's been great, Paul has brought in fresh ideas," says Sloan.
They've also taken over the upstairs tattoo parlour, which, although it was initially going to be a bar, has become more of a test kitchen space, which has allowed them to focus on the creative side of things.
Rob Sloan, Paul Hammond, and David Hobbs.
"The banquettes [in Bulletin Place] downstairs were our storage," Sloan says. "At the start of every shift you'd get your juicer out, you'd get your equipment out, then you'd wash it, put it all bag in — this is much more conducive to creativity you know where everything is, you don't have to go through daily arguments about where everything is. This makes us feel a bit more serene coming into a shift."
What goes into keeping Bulletin Place at its peak? Whilst the idea of a 50 person bar, focused on fresh produce with a five-cocktail strong list changing daily looks simple, it's the behind the scenes work which makes it look easy.
To begin with, it's no easy task in Sydney right now attracting and keeping good bartenders.
"One of our biggest challenges in the industry is the paucity of staff — HR is our number one challenge and I guess for everyone in Sydney it's the number one issue," says Sloan. The days of being able to just cherry-pick the best bartenders is over, he says.
"No-one really wants to move anymore, they're wrapped in cotton wool and kept in their organisation. We're the same, we're fiercely protective of our staff." So they're finding staff who are committed to bartending as a career — "to do what Tim Philips has done," Sloan says — and putting them through a 12 week bootcamp of sorts.
"For us having them a bit green is a good thing, rather than having to untrained bad habits, it's often better because you don't get the ego attached. Especially the older a bartender gets — when you're watching, they're doing it your way, but when it's Friday night the muscle memory kicks in," he says.
They focus on aptitude and attitude, and each new recruit is subjected to a test of their bartending knowledge as a means of gauging which areas the top brass will need to work on with them.
Inside Bulletin Place's prep kitchen.
Then there's the ongoing training needs, an area which Hobbs has addressed through smart adoption of technology.
"In our day, training was, "here's the till, here's the ice well" and you get the booklet of classic cocktails or bar specs and they'd all be crossed out, drinks spilt all over it — it was a complete nightmare," says Sloan.
So how do they minimise the ambiguity and they've got the same message to everyone, in a bar where the list changes every day?
"I've always been interested in where hospitality and technology intersects," says Hobbs. "One of things we've expanded across both businesses is centralised training notes, through an app called Airtable."
It's one great big database of every drink they're putting on the list at Bulletin Place, and is searchable via name, spirit or style of drink.
"When we make a change, it automatically spits it down through Slack," Hobbs says.
"Every classic cocktail that we expect staff to know is highlighted here," Sloan says. Tasting notes for food, wine, beer, it's all in there and it's all accurate, all the time.
Given that each of the five bartenders will create one or two menus a week, the database offers assistance in working out what will work at any given time of year.
"Being able to look back on it — so when we get to this point next year, here are the key produce, here's what we used, what we did last year, what worked and what didn't sell," says Hammond.
Once a month, they hold a training session — say, on cognac — and then they're tested on the previous month's session. They then sit down, take stock of key dates for the month ahead.
Planning, Bulletin Place.
"So let's think about flavours that tie in with those, and make sure we're getting the best out of those products," says Hammond.
What's the process in creating a menu? It's not quite as carte blanche as you might think.
Around 11 or 12 at night, the bartender that was on will handover to the next day's bartender, updating them on stock and produce.
"He will say, 'right, you've got 500ml of raspberry syrup left, you've got to use that,'" says Hammond. "'You've got a punnet of grapes left, you've got to use that. And then you've got three produce lines for us to order for you. So from whatever time that is until 1pm the next day you've got to create your menu".
The bartender also needs to consider other constraints, like glassware."You don't want to do three Sours because you're going to die," says Hobbs. "You've got to spread the glass types, you've got to spread the ice types — it's not quite as much of a blank sheet of paper as people imagine."
And it's these little choices, made before service starts, that can really affect the whole night.
"The success of the night lives and dies by [you]," says Sloan. "If you're having a shit night as a bartender at Bulletin, the whole venue sinks, because we've got a really strict eight minute check time," says Sloan.
"We've had younger bartenders in the past who have been removed from their station mid-shift, because they've got 10, 12, 14-minute check times."
Whilst the bar is small — a maximum of 50 punters will be in at full flight — the work is always cocktails, which make up 80 percent of the drink mix.
As it's a one-person bar, the second bartender's primary duty is to fill in the gaps for the number one bartender who has created the list for the night, finishing drinks off, pulling out glassware at the right time, and cashing off bills.
"On a busy night, as number two you're earning your money, you're glueing the whole venue together," says Sloan. "For any young bartender, there's about a 12 week process before they get behind the bar, where they can make drinks quick enough, even on a Tuesday night."
It's these details that make the bar what it is. "A ripe mango, in season, why fuck around with that?" says Sloan. "We still work on that principle. If it ain't broke, don't fix it."

Northwood Community Partnership
Posted by NCP Admin on Sunday, 22nd March 2009, 00:00
Chairman: Colin Palmerton
40 Greenways, Northwood.
Email: overner@onwight.net
Vice-Chairman: Alan Chick
75 Pallance Road, Northwood.
Secretary: Eileen Turner-Palmerton
Email: whitecross@onwight.net
The views expressed are those of the contributors, and are not necessarily those of Northwood Community Partnership.
NORTHWOOD COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP REPORT (Colin Palmerton)
Hopefully, most residents will have noticed that a brand new notice board has been sited on the grassed area adjacent to the Horseshoe Inn Public House, the previous board having exceeded its useful life and lately subject to some mindless vandalism.
Also, seats have been provided at four village bus shelters – on both sides of Newport Road, near to Northwood Stores and on both sides of Nodes Road close to the junction with Uplands Road. This Project was enabled through a financial partnership between the Community Partnership and The Rural Development Programme for England and funded by DEFRA and the EU. The European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development, Europe investing in rural areas.
The notice board has been specifically designed in three sections to benefit the Parish Council, the Community and the Community Partnership. Any community activity or information can be displayed in the centre section. The maximum space for each section is sufficient to hold nine A4 size sheets of paper. Planning consent does not permit us to allow commercial advertising.
Very many thanks to Derek Toms for his creative and invaluable work in creating this board, which will serve our village and its residents for many years to come.
The overall cost of this Project was almost £4,000 of which the Partnership provided 20% of the cost. Ultimately, this has reduced our funds to an extremely low level. With automatic grants no longer available from the Isle of Wight Council, it will become even more difficult to fund future projects bringing benefit to Northwood. Nonetheless, two future schemes have been devised. How and from where funds will become available is a matter of guesswork.
The first is a 'Welcome Pack' for new residents of our village. (This is where YOU come in). What information should be in the Pack? Local shops & businesses? Medical services? Community Groups? Link to the village website? Local Parish Councillors?
This is YOUR village. What would YOU want in such a Pack? Give us your ideas.
There is also an intriguing idea to create 'FIT' village trails around Northwood.
If you believe, as a village resident or not, you should help in any way with these (or other projects) the next Partnership meeting is on Tuesday 28th April 2009, starting at 7.45 pm in the Northwood W.I. Hall, Newport Road.

Designers should be continuously redefining their worldview because the world is continuously redefining itself. We need to keep up with the people we're trying to reach.
Here's what I do to keep up with the world.
Leave the house. Behind every great man is a woman who makes him put on pants and get outside. Go to the mall. Be a consumer. See the promotions, the package design, fonts, see what people are wearing…unless it's Walmart; then just look at the package design.
Listen to a different radio station every week. Even that one station that makes your ears bleed. Chances are you'll have to develop a creative strategy to woo those people. Better find out what they like to dance to.
Check in on TV shows. You don't have to like "Under the Dome" (or my daughter's favorite "Dance Moms") you just have to know what all the silliness is about. Think of it as eating your pop culture spinach.
See a show. Go to a gallery. A museum. A gentleman's club (just wanted to see if you were paying attention). Sure, a museum may seem stodgy, but I'm sure a work by Kenny Scharf (pictured above) or Jeff Koons can get you excited.
Talk to your co-workers. Actually, I should say listen to your co-workers. No one wants to hear about you not wearing pants.
