A mother helped her daughter escape a troubled arranged marriage and told her 'don't ruin your life, go live it' the night before she was allegedly stabbed to death by her angry son-in-law, a jury has heard.
Muhammad Tafham, 31, is alleged to have murdered Rahman Begum, 46, at her home in Rochdale after his wife, Aysha, 25, left him to move back in with her long-term boyfriend in Bradford.
Aysha continued seeing her partner despite entering into an arranged marriage in Pakistan with Tafham, a cousin on her father's side, who joined her in the UK in September 2016.
Manchester Minshull Street Crown Court heard the couple needed to live together for three years so Tafham could stay in the country - but the pair constantly argued and eventually Aysha asked him for a divorce, which he refused.
Aysha went back to her boyfriend on February 4 this year.
Two days later Mrs Begum helped trick the defendant into leaving their home in Clement Royds Street while Aysha returned with her boyfriend and hurriedly threw her belongings into bin bags and carrier bags before the lovers drove off.
On February 7, the mother-of-five was found lying on her kitchen floor with blood around her and a knife in her hand.
Police at the scene after Rahman Begum was found dead in Rochdale
She was pronounced dead at the scene when paramedics arrived.
A post-mortem examination found she had suffered three major stab wounds to the front of her body and one of them passed through her breast bone and right through her heart.
The Crown say Tafham killed Mrs Begum in anger and then placed the 12in kitchen knife in her hand to make the death appear as a suicide.
Aysha told detectives that her mother had no reason to kill herself.
She said: "She would not do something like that."
She said her father, Gulraiz Sharif, did not accept the relationship with her boyfriend, Malik, and that she only agreed to the arranged marriage with Tafham to keep her father happy.
Aysha said Tafham threatened her over the phone the day after she fled to Bradford.
She said: "I wouldn't tell him where I was staying and he said, 'I am going to come and grab you. I am going to show you who I am'.
"He always used to say, 'I have got a feeling someone is going to get killed out of your family'."
When she returned to Clement Royds Street to collect her clothes, she said her mother told her boyfriend: "Look after my daughter" and had said to her: "Don't ruin your life, go live it."
Giving evidence on Thursday, Aysha said she had fallen out with her father over living apart from Tafham but said her mother never asked her to stay with the defendant.
Andrew Thomas QC, prosecuting, asked her: "Did your mother ever say you were bringing shame to the family?"
Aysha replied: "No, she did not."
Mr Thomas asked: "Did she ever stop you going back to Malik?"
Aysha said: "She said wherever my daughters are happy I'm happy."
The court heard Mrs Begum complained to her GP last November that she was feeling low in mood but had no record of a formal diagnosis of depression or any other psychiatric disorder.
Pathologist Dr Charles Wilson told the jury that he thought "severe force" would have been required to inflict the stab wound which passed through her breast bone.
He added it would have been "very difficult" for Mrs Begum to inflict that wound herself but could not say it was "technically impossible".

Guy Verhofstadt (ALDE group leader), Edward McMillan-Scott (Lib Dem, UK) and Hans Van Baalen (VVD, Netherlands) who visited Cairo on 26-27 February to meet the interim regime and reform groups, are concerned about the validity of the referendum on elements of the constitution in Egypt taking place tomorrow, Saturday 19th March.
Because there has been no voter registration, voters will simply produce their identity cards and indelible ink will be used to prevent duplicate voting. Liberals are alarmed at how the process is being rushed and are concerned about the validity of the referendum as reformist parties have not had time to fully emerge and most lack access to voters in various constituencies.
The drafting of the constitutional changes was done by a group not considered representative of all national interests by reformist groups. They also claim that the referendum process lacks the involvement of legitimate political parties and the wider Egyptian public.
Hans Van Baalen, President of Liberal International said: "The Arab world is watching Egypt and our contacts there suggest great scepticism about this referendum, its timing, and its substance. It is of vital importance that the first real democratic opportunity Egypt has after the fall of the Mubarak regime is genuinely democratic. We call on the current interim Egyptian leadership to conduct the political process according to democratic principles".

� Breaking: CBO Says Repealing ObamaCare Would SAVE 1.4 TRILLION DOLLARS Over 10 Years | Main | Overnight Open Thread �
Judge to Obama Admin: End the Drilling Permatorium
This is the same judge who already found the Interior Department in contempt of court for its shenanigans with the summer's drilling moratoriums. Now he's ordering the Interior Department to start issuing permits (or permit denials) within a reasonable time instead of just sitting on permit applications:
�Not acting at all is not a lawful option,� Judge Feldman wrote, adding that the delays are �increasingly inexcusable� and were causing drilling companies to relocate their rigs to foreign waters.
The interior secretary, Ken Salazar, imposed a six-month moratorium on deepwater drilling in the gulf immediately after the Deepwater Horizon explosion in April, which killed 11 workers and spilled nearly five million barrels of oil into the ocean. Judge Feldman declared the drilling ban illegal in June, but Mr. Salazar modified it slightly, and it remained in place until the department lifted it in October.
However, despite the official end of the ban, Mr. Salazar and the agency�s Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement have not issued any deepwater permits.
The Interior Department has 30 days to make a decision on five permits.

The women fighting for white male supremacy
By Nicole Hemmer Sep 18, 2017, 8:40am EDT
Share All sharing options for: The women fighting for white male supremacy
Lana Lokteff, who hosts a show on Red Ice Ice TV, a voice for the racist alt-right.
This story is part of a group of stories called
Outside contributors' opinions and analysis of the most important issues in politics, science, and culture.
"It was women that got Trump elected," Lana Lokteff, one of the most prominent women in the American alt-right, told an audience earlier this year at an "ideas" conference in Stockholm. White women, she means, but when Lokteff — whose pale skin, long blonde hair, and light blue eyes help make her a living embodiment of the Aryan ideal — speaks about politics, the "white" is generally assumed. "And, I guess," Lokteff continued, "to be really edgy, it was women that got Hitler elected."
Hitler wasn't really elected (he lost his race for the presidency and was appointed to the role of chancellor), but facts are fungible for Lokteff. And besides, it was the frisson of name-checking Hitler that counted for the audience.
In the corner of the world Lokteff inhabits, Hitler references are far less controversial than praise for female political power; women tend to be either overlooked or actively dismissed. But then, Lokteff is an unconventional figure: She hosts a white nationalist radio program, Radio 3Fourteen, part of the Red Ice media conglomerate that she runs with her husband Henrik Palmgren, a Swedish national. (Palmgren is media director for Richard Spencer's fledgling AltRight Corporation, described as a "more ideological" — read: more overtly white nationalist — Breitbart.)
Despite her fervent commitment to advancing the interests of the white race, however, Lokteff faces a problem. Like many far-right movements throughout American history, the alt-right movement is as rooted as much in ideas of male superiority as it is white supremacy. The white nationalist side gets more attention, but men's rights activism has been equally important to the movement. Women who are eager to be race warriors are seen by the white men who dominate the alt-right as, at best, subordinate partners, and, at worst, as part of the problem — yet another threat to white male power.
It is a double bind that has faced women of the far right for generations: To defend white supremacy, they must appeal to the values of tradition and hierarchy that structure racist politics. Yet gender hierarchy is also a potent part of that political tradition.
The parallels with the women who supported the Ku Klux Klan
A similar challenge confronted women white supremacists in the 1920s, a decade when feminism and white nationalism were both on the march. The popular images of the era are of women set loose from Victorian restrictions: the flapper dancing and smoking and rouging her knees, the suffragist glorying in her newfound enfranchisement, the New Woman entering government and the arts and the professions.
But women's political ambition stirred in darker corners, too. In 1923, activists formed the Women of the Ku Klux Klan (WKKK), organizing to restrict the rights of Jews, African Americans, and Catholics.
Women were hardly new to the world of organized hate, nor to the Klan itself, although the first Klan, formed in the years after the Civil War, was a strictly male organization. The original Klan operated through intimidation and vigilante violence. White women supported such actions mainly as spectators and behind-the-scenes supporters — and also as highly symbolic supposed victims of the depravities of the lower orders.
Black men whom the Klan lynched were often falsely accused of raping white women, but such lynchings were also a way of policing white women's behavior, reminding them of the dire consequences of crossing the color line.
In photos capturing the grotesque scenes of lynchings, where white crowds numbering in the hundreds gathered to witness the murders, white women feature prominently among the smiling faces, more often than not with children in tow. They were introducing their offspring to the rituals of violent white nationalism.
While white women couldn't don the hood or burn the cross in the 19th-century Klan, they found other white supremacist and nativist organizations to join, groups like Ladies of the Invisible Empire, Hooded Ladies of the Mystic Den, and the Order of American Women.
It took the rise of the second Klan — the one founded by William Simmons in 1915, in response to the release of the Klan-friendly film The Birth of the Nation and a rising nativism in the United States — to create a formal space for women. The new Klan was markedly different from its predecessor. Members of the 1920s Klan joined to protect the white race (although, as historian Kathleen Blee points out, they often publicly rejected the notion that the Klan was "anti-anything or anti-anybody," but instead simply wanted "a stronger America.") Members of the new Klan also engaged in serious vigilante violence.
But unlike the Reconstruction-era Klan, the 1920s Klan was a civic organization that held parades and picnics. Numbering in the millions and stretching from Oregon to Indiana to New York, its members ran openly for public office, and voted as (and for) members of the Klan. Given that women had newly been enfranchised, those electoral ambitions meant the Klan had to change. And so in 1923, the women formed, and the men embraced, the Women of the Ku Klux Klan (WKKK).
Women would not penetrate the upper echelons of the Klan — no Grand Wizard titles for them — but they would be active members, donning the white robes and hoods and canvassing for Klan candidates. The women of the Klan even engaged in acts of violence, reveling — if rarely — in the vigilante bloodlust normally reserved for men.
In Athens, Georgia, women Klan members organized a flogging of an errant husband as part of policing their neighborhood. Mamie Bittner of Pennsylvania recalled marching in a parade of thousands of Klanswomen who carried threatening clubs. Klanswomen also called on the men of the Klan to enact violence on specific people; the Georgia Realm of the Klan, a men's group, received upwards of 20 letters a week from women suggesting possible targets.
A woman helped run PR for the Klan in the 1920s, testing gender boundaries
Though the men of the Klan tended to view the WKKK, condescendingly, as an "auxiliary" group, like the Junior Klan groups for teenagers, many women in the Klan viewed their participation in the movement as a sort of liberation.
Consider Elizabeth Tyler, who worked closely with the men of the Klan to build it into a mass movement. Married at 14 and widowed at 15, Tyler spent her early 30s as part of the "better babies" movement, a scientific approach to parenthood that sat at the intersection of public health and eugenics. Through this movement she met Edward Clarke, a promoter who helped organize "better babies" festivals in the South.
It's tough being a woman in this crowd. But there were a few.

Together they founded the Southern Publicity Association, a for-profit company that created promotional campaigns for organizations like the Red Cross and the Salvation Army. In 1920 they offered their PR services to Simmons, founder of the modern Klan. Tyler and Clarke used novel advertising and organizational techniques to structure and sell the Klan: hiring professional promotors, creating a dues and leadership structure, and selling the Klan with the slogan "100% Americanism." (They also violated the Klan's pro-Prohibition, pro-morality stance when they were arrested together in 1919, in flagrante and under the influence.) Tyler was a full partner in the company's work, making her the highest-placed woman within the Klan.
The WKKK sometimes even fought with the men's Klan, with several local chapters of the WKKK seceding from their local male counterparts to protest men's efforts to dominate the female branch. Such interference, the Little Rock chapter noted upon its defection, "is contrary to our principles of women, by women and for women."
The women of the Klan were thus able to transgress traditional gender boundaries in service of upholding the Klan's most important value: upholding traditional racial hierarchies. The women of the alt-right are navigating those same dynamics.
Largely invisible in media accounts, they nonetheless make up some 20 percent of those who claim the alt-right label. Though the images from the torchlight rally in Charlottesville focused on the men shouting "blood and soil," there were also a few women in the horde.
Lokteff serves as the most visible avatar of these women, for at least two important reasons. Her marriage to a prominent white nationalist serves to soften her ambition, in the eyes of other men: She can be understood as a helpmeet rather than an independent woman, even as her speeches flirt with themes underscoring female power on the alt-right.
Her appearance matters, too. Men have power on the alt-right because male supremacy says they should, but women's place has to be earned, not only through their work as race warriors but also through the way they reflect the movement's ideal woman: white, attractive, feminine, anti-feminist. (For his part, her husband has carefully cultivated his appearance, too, adopting a quasi-Viking look.)
That last piece — anti-feminism — is key. Lokteff might preach about the power of women, but she is scathing about feminism, which has "done a lot to destroy our society, to tear up the family unit," she has said. Men and women, she argues, are essentially different — feminism undermines "our biological roles where we function the best"— and while women can leverage their femininity to prosecute the coming race war, they can never truly be men's equal
And yet Lokteff is carving out a career as a prominent political activist and media mogul. As she speaks of women's power, and seeks it, she also advocates, or at least admits, their subservience.
It's a tension the women of the Klan could not resolve, and the women of the alt-right can't, either. They may claim power, but they can never claim equality.

my week at the movies: 'Over Her Dead Body,' 'Sputnik Mania,' 'In Bruges,' 'George Romero's Diary of the Dead,' 'The Band's Visit,' 'Chicago 10,' 'The Eye'

Eva Longoria Parker is dead, but don't think that will stop her from trying to ruin her the life of Paul Rudd, her still-living boyfriend, particularly when he gets a new girlfriend. Over Her Dead Body [opens wide February 1] is the directorial debut of TV guy Jeff Lowell (a vet of Sports Night and Spin City), which doesn't help dispel the terrible premonition I have that this is gonna feel like a sitcom. Nor does the working title: How I Met My Boyfriend's Dead Fiancée. Ugh.
Sputnik Mania [opens limited March 14] is a History Channel documentary (one set for a theatrical release) about the panic that gripped America after the Soviet launch of the first artificial satellite, and how it set off the space race. Space stuff is always good by me.
Irish playwright Martin McDonagh makes his debut as a screenwriter and film director with the hitman comedy In Bruges [opens limited February 8], which just debuted at Sundance. Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson are, I gather, not the brightest criminals the streets ever produced, and now they're stuck in the titular Belgian city while they wait for their next assignment. I not a particular fan of McDonagh's stage plays, but he did win an Oscar last year for his short film, "Six Shooter." And I do like Colin Farrell. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for this one.
George Romero's Diary of the Dead [opens limited February 15] also made its debut at this year's Sundance. This one's about a group of young filmmakers shooting a horror movie in the woods when — yup — they run into some zombie troubles. Romero's last zombie flick, Land of the Dead, was great — I'd love to think this one will be, too.
An Arab military band arrives in Israel for a concert. Apparently, comedy ensues in The Band's Visit [opens limited February 8]. I guess worst things could have happened.
Chicago 10 [opens limited February 29] is a partially animated documentary about the eight anti-war protestors who were prosecuted for their actions at the 1968 Democratic National Convention. Neat.
It's another remake from Asian horror, and it stars Jessica Alba. There's a reason why The Eye [opens wide February 1] won't screen for critics before it opens. But Lionsgate is holding a courtesy screening on Friday morning, and I'll be there. *sigh*

Q: Find $6^{s}$ complement of $N=(268)_{10}$ Question

Find $6^{s}$ complement of  $N=(268)_{10}$

My approach

First i converted $N=(268)_{10}$ to $(1124)_{6}$

then ,

i found the $6^{s}$ complement by subtrating $N$ from $r^{n}$

where $r$=base
$n$=number of digit
which is

$6^{4}-1124$=$1296-1124$=$172$

which seems to be incorrect  because if i do using diminished radix complement
i.e using $5^{s}$ complement and then adding $1$ ,it is coming as-:
$(5555-N)$+$1$=$(5555-1124)+1$=$4432$
I am confused.
Please help me out !

A: Assume that the number $ N $ is written in base (or radix) $ r $. The radix complement of $ N $ is by definition
$$r^n-N=\left((r^n-1)-N\right)+1, \tag{1}$$
where $ n $ is the number of digits of $ N $.
Your error is in

$6^{4}-1124$=$1296-1124$=$172$

because the number $1124 $ is written in base $6$, while $1296 =6^4 $ is written in base $10$. Since $(6^4)_6=(10000)_6 $ you should have:
$$(6^4)_6-(1124)_6=(10000)_6 - ( 1124)_6 = (4432)_6. \tag{2}$$
Alternatively, for $ r=6$ and $N=(1124)_6$, $ n=4 $. And since $(6^4)_6-(1)_6=(5555)_6$,  we obtain from $(1) $ the same result, confirming your last computation
$$\begin{align}(6^4)_6-(1124)_6&=((6^4)_6-(1)_6)-(1124)_6+(1 )_6 \\
&=(5555)_6-(1124)_6+(1)_6 \\&= (4431)_6+(1)_6\\&=(4432)_6.\tag{3}\end{align}$$

Terps add QB Jackson before summer workouts
José Umaña June 6, 2019 0 0
COLLEGE PARK – The University of Maryland football team added more depth on offense after they announced the addition of former Virginia Tech quarterback Josh Jackson as a transfer student.
Jackson comes to College Park with an impressive resume: He started all 13 games for Virginia Tech as a red-shirt freshman, throwing for 2,991 yards and rushing for 324 yards. The 6-foot-1, 215-pound quarterback set new school freshman records for passing touchdowns (20), total passing yards and 200+ yard passing games (nine).
The Ann Arbor, Michigan native will compete for a starting job at Maryland after having his 2018 season cut short due to a broken left fibula in the third game of the season. On Jan. 23, Jackson announced his decision to leave the Virginia Tech program.
"But after much thought, consideration and discussion with my family, we think it'd be best for me to pursue my academic and football career elsewhere," Jackson said in a statement posted on his Twitter account. "It will be an honor to receive a degree from Virginia Tech and I will forever be a Hokie and cherish my time spent in Blacksburg."
The addition of Jackson adds more depth into the quarterback position that has been unstable for the past few seasons due to injuries. Last season, Maryland's passing offense finished ranked 121 out of 129 Division I teams and only threw 12 passing touchdowns.

Tyrrell Pigrome, who started in the final two games last season and threw for 376 yards, will return next season. However, he was recently was held out of the Spring Game on April 27 with a knee injury. Meanwhile, both Tyler DeSue and Max Bortenschlager took advantage of the extra playing time, with the former throwing for 218 yards and scoring two touchdowns.
"More reps equal better play, and I want that," said DeSue on April 27. "Everything worked out well for me this spring, and I hope I continue to get more reps this summer and fall camp."
Meanwhile, last year's starter Kasim Hill, announced on Feb. 8, that he would explore transferring out of Maryland and put his name on the transfer portal. He was still listed on Maryland's roster during the spring game as he continues to recover from an ACL injury.
Since taking over for former Head Coach DJ Durkin and interim Matt Canada after the 2018 season, Head Coach Michael Locksley attempted to court more high-named talent to come to play at Maryland. The former Alabama assistant coach stated in previous interviews that Maryland would use various methods including bringing in transfers, graduate students and junior college players.
"Obviously, we have a lot more work to fill out and develop the rest of this class between now and the next signing day period," Locksley said following Early Signing Day on Dec. 20. "But I'm thrilled with the student-athletes we added today."
His strategy almost worked in bringing on former Alabama star quarterback Jalen Hurts. After the former Crimson Tide star put his name in the transfer portal, he attended a Maryland men's basketball game in January with Locksley as part of his recruitment to College Park. However, it did not ultimately succeed once Hurts announced his decision to go to Oklahoma.
Locksley did make significant additions on National Signing Day on Feb. 6, when four-star quarterback Lance LeGendre from New Orleans, Louisiana announced his decision to join Maryland. Locally, DeMatha Catholic High School cornerback Nick Cross was already verbally committed to Florida State before Locksley and his staff entered the Maryland campus.
However, Locksley made a final push to get him to get the Stag to join his new revamped recruiting class. The tactic worked as Cross announced his decision to flip and join the Terrapins on Feb. 12.
In addition to Jackson, former Buffalo tight end Tyler Mabry was also announced as another transfer addition to the Maryland roster. He named First Team All-Mid-American Conference in 2018 after making 27 catches for 230 yards and two touchdowns. He was a pivotal part of the Bulls rushing attack as a blocker as well. The Bulls averaged 189.1 yards per game last year.
Both Jackson and Mabry already earned their undergraduate degrees and are eligible to play immediately next season, according to Maryland officials.

11 Contemporary Italian Directors Everyone Should Know
By Alison Nastasi
Film Society of Lincoln Center is treating us to a survey of new Italian cinema in their annual Open Roads program. Veterans and emerging directors alike will screen for New York City audiences, featuring the newest and greatest comedies, indies, and experimental features. To get into the spirit of the diverse lineup, we've highlighted the works of ten contemporary Italian filmmakers you should know — a starting point for newcomers. But this is hardly a complete list, so feel free to mention the recent films from Italy you loved, below.
Films to watch: Caro diario, The Son's Room, We Have a Pope, Mia madre (coming soon to the US)
A critical view: "Actor-writer-director Moretti, a darling of Cannes, where We Have a Pope premiered last May (and where he will serve as president of the jury next month), has often been referred to as the "Italian Woody Allen"; in his earlier works, like Caro Diario (1993), he turned the camera on himself and his foibles. Here, as in his previous film, The Caiman (2006), which takes aim at Silvio Berlusconi, he attempts to scrutinize the oddities of all-powerful leaders and institutions." —Melissa Anderson for the Village Voice, We Have a Pope
Films to watch: The Consequences of Love, Il Divo, The Great Beauty, Youth (coming soon to the US)
A critical view: "People are likening this Italian nominee for Best Foreign Language Film to Fellini's work, and certainly his fans won't be disappointed. But The Great Beauty also asks hard questions about the very world Fellini depicted; most powerfully, it wonders whether living the flamboyant life of an artist, surrounded by sensual pleasures of all kinds, can kill any inspiration or urgency one has to actually make art." —Our own Judy Berman, The Great Beauty
Films to watch: The Embalmer, Gomorrah, Reality, Tale of Tales (coming soon to the US)
A critical view: "Garrone uses an unadorned documentary style, lean, efficient, no shots for effect. He establishes characters, shows their plans and problems, shows why they must kill or be killed — often, be killed because of killing. Much is said about trust and respect, but little is seen of either. The murders, for the most part, have no excitement and certainly no glamor — none of the flash of most gangster movies. Sometimes they're enlivened by surprise, but it is the audience that's surprised, not the victims, who often never know what hit them." —Roger Ebert, Gomorrah
Films to watch: Bianco, rosso e Verdone, Compagni di scuola, In viaggio con papà, Borotalco
A critical view: "Carlo Verdone is a jack-of-all-trades when it comes to cinema. He began his career in television in the 70's. With the guidance of legendary director Sergio Leone, Carlo Verdone made a smooth transition to the big screen. Since the success of his first film in 1982, In Viaggio con Papa (Traveling with Papa), Verdone has been regarded as one of the most important and influential filmmakers of our time. In recent years, he's gone beyond the boundaries of acting to find further success in directing and screenwriting." —Blog Italian Cinema & Art Today
Paolo and Vittorio Taviani
Films to watch: Padre padrone, La notte di San Lorenzo, Caesar Must Die, Wondrous Boccaccio (coming soon to the US)
A critical view: "A distinctive force in European cinema for over 35 years, Paolo and Vittorio Taviani achieved from their first films an eloquent stylistic bridge between Rossellinian stringency and Fellinian braggadocio. Their movies are often framed like friezes, but the chaos of human whim always muddies the compositions. Appropriately, the Tavianis began as political barnburners, fashioning absurdist parables and sometimes cosmic commedia from Italy's lunatic flirtations with extreme movements. No European filmmaker has ever been as dedicated to their nation's peasant legacy, and no one on the continent since the '70s has made such potent and revealing use of their native landscape." —Michael Atkinson for IFC, The Night of the Shooting Stars
Films to watch: Scarlet Diva, The Heart Is Deceitful Above All Things, Firmeza, Misunderstood (coming soon to the US)
A critical view: "There's something irresistibly hip about Asia Argento, even as a concept. The sultry, pouty daughter of trash-horror maestro Dario Argento, her public image as a wild child jack-of-all-trades-as-long-as-they're-kinda-glamorous (actress, singer, model, director) does make her something of a poster girl for tough, troubled, attitude-y cool (just check out her Cannes red carpet pic or her Twitter account for that matter). But after her first two forays into directing, "Scarlet Diva" (in which she also starred as a self-destructive starlet) and child abuse chronicle "The Heart is Deceitful Above All Things," she has shifted gears in several ways with her third: she makes a brief, Hitchcock-level cameo but doesn't star, and most welcome, she moves from straight-up miserablism to a beguiling cockeyed whimsy." —Jessica Kiang for The Playlist, Misunderstood
Alice Rohrwacher
Films to watch: Corpo celeste, The Wonders (coming soon to the US)
A critical view: "The narrative is also dreamlike at times, skipping a few links like a bike with a loose chain, as when the fate of a deeply traumatized juvenile delinquent Wolfgang brings in to work for the summer becomes a central mystery and is left only partially solved. But those gaps feel like gifts rather than errors, signs of respect from a director who wants to leave space for us to imagine our way into the world she creates. Like a rural Fellini, Rohrwacher mixes the mundane with the absurd to create a sometimes fabulous tale that always feels palpably real." —Elise Nakhnikian for Slant, The Wonders
Films to watch: His Secret Life, Facing Windows, Sacred Heart, Fasten Your Seatbelts
A critical view: "Born in Istanbul, the Italian director Ferzan Özpetek's themes of family bonds, secret sexual identities and interracial relationships have been clearly defined in films such as Hammam: The Turkish Bath (1997) and Le Fate Ignoranti (2001). Moving more towards the mainstream, Özpetek ties these themes to a more conventional romantic thriller situation – and quite successfully judging by the 5 Donatello awards the film picked up in 2003 – but Facing Window seems to constantly lose focus in the process." —Noel Megahey for The Digital Fix, Facing Windows
Laura Bispuri
Films to watch: Passing Time, Sworn Virgin (coming soon to the US)
A critical view: "The question of body, gender and sexuality is one of the most explored themes in contemporary cinema and has taken a myriad of forms, from Lucia Puenzo's XXY to the Afghan tale Osama. In brief, it's hard to find new things to say on the subject. Sworn Virgin (Vergine Giurata) taps patriarchal Albanian tradition to ask whether renouncing sex can ever be the path to personal freedom. The answer is pretty clear. Award-winning short filmmaker Laura Bispuri has made an impressive leap into Berlin competition with this well-made feature bow, where critical response should be encouraging and help this small, special film find its niche." —Deborah Young for The Hollywood Reporter, Sworn Virgin
Films to watch: Armandino e il Madre, Honey
A critical view: "With grace and understanding, actor-turned-filmmaker Valeria Golino explores the inescapable eventuality of human mortality: that one day, each and every life will come to its conclusion. The means and method provide her plot, as ensconsed in an issue topical and controversial; yet, the film's fictional narrative is steeped in emotion, rather than rhetoric. In Honey (Miele), it is the time leading up to that unavoidable end that matters, and the ways in which we accept our fate that proves most pertinent." —Sarah Ward for ArtsHub, Honey

New figures show over 3,500 Irish women went to Britain for abortions in 2013
Patrick Counihan
Turn your frown upside down with these top tips on beating homesickness.Getty Images/iStockphoto
Over 3,500 Irish women travelled to Britain for abortions in 2013 according to new figures released by the UK's Department of Health.
Official documents confirm that 3,679 Irish women underwent abortions in the UK, a drop of 7.6 per cent and continued a downward trend.
The Irish Family Planning Association has told the Irish Independent that the latest figure does not tell the full story.
The Association said that not all women seeking an abortion provide their Irish addresses and some women travel to other European states to access abortion services.
IFPA Chief executive Niall Behan told the paper: "At least 3,679 women were forced to travel to the UK last year to access a safe and legal abortion because they are denied these necessary health services in their own country.
"Every day our clients tell us about their experiences of being abandoned by the Irish health care system and being forced to rely on the services of another country.
"Since 1980, over 158,252 women have had to make the journey to the UK to access abortion.
"These women are not criminals but the law treats them as such, because they are seeking a service that is illegal in almost every circumstance in Ireland."


A German style Wheat Beer made with a combination of Pilsner, Munich malted barley and malted wheat. Hopped during the boil with Hallertau and dry hopped in the fermentation with Sumemr hops.
The beer is fermented with a German yeast strain WB-06 at a high temperature to create fruity esters, these esters are most noticeable by the slight banana flavour in the finish.
With these beers, it is best to stick with lighter more subtle meals. There is a reason; the yeast remanants in the beer - so you can taste them. These go down well with dessert. A German Hefeweizen with a bana custard or an orange dessert would be a good match. Citrus style desserts bring out the lemon/orange and spice from this style beer.


Ancient Greeks and Romans considered Elecampane root as a cure-all for a broad range of ailments. It was considered to be a useful herbal remedy for dropsy, menstrual disorders, digestive upsets, and sciatica. A distinguished Western herbal energy tonic that affects the spleen, lungs, and heart. Elecampane is used for decreasing the level of cholesterol, to purify the blood and for preventing the forming of ulcers. Elecampane was used as an herbal cold remedy and is believed to promote sweating and bring up phlegm. Herbalists today still rely on Elecampane to relieve bronchitis, asthma, emphysema and whooping coughs. It has been beneficial to all pulmonary and catarrhal affections. Elecampane is an exceptionally rich source of inulin, a polysaccharide, that is sometimes used as a sugar substitute for diabetics. This herb is the richest source of insulin. Elecampane also has a long history in veterinary medicine as an effective remedy for skin disease and has been found to be beneficial in the treatment of psoriasis and eczema. The extracts from the herb kill methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Externally, it has been used for scabies, herpes and other diseases of the skin. It is a traditional remedy for intestinal worms, such as roundworm, threadworm, hookworm and whipworm infestation. Elecampane may also be helpful for patients with cardiovascular disease to ease the stress on the heart caused by shortness of breath, and by providing better pain relief than nitroglycerin in some people with the disease. It has been found to relieve all kinds of pain, especially those that arise from chills and animal bites. Elecampane has a mild sedative effect and has been found to be helpful in promoting sleep and relaxation. This extract has been shown to have a direct effect on moods and can assist with negative feelings and depression, also it relieves stress and tension headaches. Due to its diuretic effects, Elecampane detoxifies the body and relieves rheumatism. It can nourish hair and nails by providing them with oxygen.
Today, Elecampane tinctures are used primarily for respiratory ailments and regular intake of this herbal tincture can relieve symptoms of colds, asthma, and chronic bronchitis. Inula magnifica is particularly beneficial in the treatment of bronchitis in the elderly and congestive complaints in children. It is a relaxant that is indicated when there is a nervous component in a cough. Elecampane root extract is used with Echinacea for tuberculosis, emphysema, pleurisy and whooping cough. Elecampane's antibacterial properties have been known to kill ordinary bacterial organisms, also being particularly destructive to the tubercle bacillus. A rich source of inulin, it is used to relax the lungs. Volatile oils in the root provide expectorant, anti-inflammatory and warming properties that help break up congestion and calms coughs.
Elecampane contains all the minerals and vitamins that the body needs to strengthen its immune system. Japanese scientists have recently discovered the Elecampane extract can help fight free radicals from elements that include environmental pollution and stress. Internally, it is known for stimulating the process of dissolving fat and detoxifying the body. In the investigation of components of Ginger root and Elecampane root extracts, it was found to have antiproliferative properties which may be beneficial to prevent constipation-related cancer. The effects of the extract have been shown to have a highly selective toxicity toward four different tumor cell lines.
Elecampane root extract provides many benefits to the gastrointestinal system by treating the irritations of mouth tissues, intestinal tissues, and stomach tissues. Studies done on this herb have shown two other active ingredients that are useful in expelling parasites, including worms from the intestines. This research also the traditional use for healthy digestion. The rich amounts of inulin present in the herb help to lower blood sugar levels and may be beneficial for diabetics. The inulin helps to stabilize the blood sugars and improve absorption of nutrients from food. Elecampane also helps to promote "good" intestinal bacteria, which ensures regular bowel movements. It boosts and protects this beneficial bacterial growth in the colon and suppresses harmful bacteria growth, and so may be helpful in the prevention of colon cancer. The plant's bitter tonic properties can stimulate the appetite and useful in the treatment of debilitating conditions. With Elecampane's ability to improve digestion, you can rest assured that your cells are getting all the energy they need. Elecampane is a liver stimulant and is called a "chologogue," an herb that stimulates the flow of bile from the liver into the intestines, which is very useful for hepatic ailments, further helping digestive disorders.
Elecampane is a powerful diaphoretic and increases perspiration profusely, helping to reduce fevers and cleanse toxins from the body through the skin. Elecampane is also a diuretic that has been used to help people whose urine has stopped or who have difficulty urinating. It is also thought to reduce water retention and may be helpful in the treatment of edema.
The superbug, MRSA, the bacterium that is the root cause of many infections, Horse-heal, or Elecampane root, has been found by researchers to be 100% effective against MRSA colonies. As a topical remedy for skin, Elecampane root tinctures have anti-inflammatory properties that help to relieve rashes, eczema, psoriasis and other types of skin inflammation. The alantolactone in the roots appears to be responsible for its healing benefits. You can easily prepare a wash using the liquid extract of Elecampane root. It has also been used for the treatment of scabies, herpes and other skin diseases, from which it received its common name of Scabwort. It has been used in cosmetics to help heal the marks left by acne and also for washing hair, as it relieves all irritations, including itchiness and irritation.
Elecampane promotes the menstrual flow and is beneficial in the treatment of anemia. It is an effective herbal remedy for alleviating the unpleasant effects of menopause. This is due to the high quality of minerals that it contains, which enables it to feed the blood as well as treat back pains. The herb is effective in calming stressful moods by inducing a state of tranquility and relaxation, followed by sleep, as well as it relieves tension headaches and stress.
New developments in research have claimed that Elecampane may be of great help in cases of congestive heart failure. In clinical studies, the herb was said to relieve shortness of breath caused by exertion and may (in the correct dosage) provide more pain relief than nitroglycerin.
Ingredients: Elecampane Root, Structured Water, 20% Alcohol.

Thomson Reuters Corp (TSE:TRI, Mkt cap 42.19B, P/E 27.12, Div/yield 0.46/3.30, EPS 2.03, Shares 736.56M) has announced a restructuring that will reduce its global workforce by 4% as part of efforts to help "simplify and streamline" the business.
About 2,000 employees will be affected by the restructuring, which will take place across 39 countries and 150 locations, the news and information company said on Tuesday.
Employees in the Financial & Risk business and the Enterprise, Technology & Operations Group will be most affected. Chief executive Jim Smith told employees that there will be no decrease in headcount in the Reuters newsroom.
The announcement coincided with the release of Thomson Reuters' financial results for the third quarter, showing net income of $286m or 36 cents per share, compared with $293m or 36 cents per share in the same period a year earlier.
Revenue rose 1% to $2.74bn before the impact of foreign currency, and was flat when currency effects were factored in.
The company said that it plans to record a charge of approximately $200m to $250m in the fourth quarter of 2016 to cover the costs of the restructuring.
The changes are part of its multi-year effort to streamline the business, Smith said in an interview with Reuters News.
As a result of the fourth-quarter charge, Thomson Reuters lowered its 2016 forecast for underlying operating profit margin to between 16% and 17%, from a range of 18.4% to 19.4%.

With solar panels going up our roof on an unseasonably warm December day, and world leaders at the Paris climate summit, it seems appropriate to make a few observations about the transition to a 100 per cent renewable world.
There is much speculation as to when Ontario's "feed-in-tariff" (FIT) program — 20-year, fixed-price contracts for renewable electricity which began in 2009 after passage of the Green Energy Act — will terminate. The FIT program has certainly benefited local companies and co-ops here in eastern Ontario. Our house is becoming a small electricity-generating business. Worldwide, solar and wind have followed the same path as computer technologies — more power, less cost.
However, Ontario's FIT contract prices are not falling as fast as in other jurisdictions. Ontario Auditor General Bonnie Lysyk, in the Electricity Power System Planning section of her 2015 audit, criticizes the Ontario government for offering "significantly higher prices" to FIT generators than could be obtained through competitive procurement. She estimates that this price differential could be as high as $9.2 billion for existing FIT contracts over their 20-year duration (she also notes that Ontario's Independent Energy Supply Operator (IESO) estimates the differential at $5.3 billion because solar generators will not receive a cost-escalator for inflation).
So, does this mean that Ontario's Green Energy Act is responsible for Ontario's high electricity prices?
But media coverage of Ms. Lysyk's report ignored this concern about surplus nuclear power.
The provincial Conservatives jumped quickly to blame green energy. PC Energy Critic John Yakabuski said in a news release, "A shocking $9.2 billion more has been paid for these green energy contracts because of the political manipulations of this Government," failing to note that this figure includes future costs under 20-year FIT contracts, and has not been adjusted for inflation.
Global Adjustment data on the IESO website combine renewable energy and nuclear refurbishment costs, making it impossible to examine each individually. Could this represent deliberate obfuscation — an unwillingness of Ontario's public agencies to provide public information on the costs of nuclear power?
There is absolutely no doubt that Ontario's high electricity costs are largely attributable to nuclear power plants, with their cost over-runs, Global Adjustment and debt retirement charges, and payments to other jurisdictions to soak up surplus power.
With regard to the Bruce refurbishment deal, Minister Chiarelli has stated that "We also have built into the process … some off-ramps." Nonetheless, he is expected to soon announce refurbishment of two Darlington reactors — despite the auditor general's warning about the economic risks of creating "inflexible" surplus generation capacity, and massive public concern about the lack of a means of evacuating Toronto in the event of a nuclear emergency.
Some economic optimists maintain that a transition to renewables can emerge through market forces alone. They underestimate the fierce desire of bureaucracies and corporations to cling to the status quo of nuclear power. They ignore huge nuclear subsidies: government-backed financing for refurbishment, a federal bureaucracy (the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission) to manage nuclear risks, a federal nuclear research laboratory in Chalk River, federal legislation to limit the liability of nuclear generators for damages from major accidents.
Now that climate change has taken fossil-fuel generating plants off the table, policy-makers must level the playing field between nuclear power, conservation and renewable energy. Surprisingly, Ms. Lysyk criticizes public investments in conservation: "We are concerned that the Ministry continues to invest in conservation efforts when Ontario already has significant surplus power." Why on earth would Ontarians not welcome public conservation investments if they reduce electricity bills?
Ms. Lysyk is also critical of the inability of solar and wind energy to provide peak power, i.e., enough electricity to keep Toronto's air conditioners humming on hot summer days. However, conservation measures (which can be as simple as closing window blinds) can drive down electricity demand for cooling, and solar generation peaks when the sun shines on hot summer days. New innovations such as two-sided solar panels on white-painted rooftops can increase peak capacity of solar power.
The worst-case scenario is that Bruce and Darlington refurbishment will raise electricity prices and create a surplus of "inflexible generation." Higher prices will create a strong incentive for homeowners to conserve and will drive larger industrial consumers out of the province. Ontario will have to pay other jurisdictions to take our surplus. Rather than locking Ontarians into this treadmill, the provincial government should cancel — or greatly scale back — its nuclear refurbishment plans.
We should not look at renewables with rose-coloured glasses. Mistakes have been made. Quebec's massive James Bay projects triggered strong initial opposition until fairer deals were made with the Cree First Nations. Early solar installations under the Green Energy Act covered acres of prime farmland (this is no longer allowed). And the Ontario government allowed large corporations to impose wind turbines on local communities, triggering a backlash. In jurisdictions other than Ontario, co-ops and local businesses have a much larger share of the renewables market.
Hundreds of thousands of people marched in cities around the world just before the start of the Paris climate summit, demanding a transition to 100 per cent renewable energy by 2050. We need their vision of a peaceful world, built upon renewable economies and green jobs. We can have a future that does not involve endless wars over dwindling non-renewable resources, or risks of nuclear accidents, whether caused by humans, acts of nature, or a combination of both, as at Fukushima.
The renewables transition is shaking up existing power structures and meeting fierce resistance. It can happen — but only if public agencies make available complete and credible information on costs of different energy options, and citizens choose wisely through their democratic institutions.

Hanksville, Utah
Goblin Valley, Hanksville, utah, Wayne County
In the spring of 1882 Ebenezer Hanks, Ebenezer McDougall, Joseph Sylvester, Charles Gould, and Samuel Gould moved with their families from Washington County to the junction of the Fremont and Muddy rivers in what is now eastern Wayne County. This early settlement in what was known as Graves Valley–a name applied to the area by John Wesley Powell survey expedition member Walter Graves, who had mapped the region–developed into the community of Hanksville.
In the summer of 1882 the General Land Office let contracts for the surveying of townships along the Fremont River from Capitol Reef eastward to Hanksville. These surveys were completed by the spring of 1883, allowing the earliest settlers to file and establish orderly land claims.
The small community developed quickly; postal service from Green River was established in 1883 with a delivery three times a week. The mail was carried by pony express and the rider would make the 110-mile round trip in two days. The community's name was changed to Hanksville in 1885, and by 1890 twenty families had moved to the valley and maintained permanent residences there.
Telephone service began in 1913 under a cooperative plan connecting Hanksville to Fruita and other communities in the county. This service was updated in 1960. Hanksville did not receive electricity until 1960; before 1960 many residents operated individual generators run on butane or diesel fuel.
The early settlers depended on culinary and irrigation water from the Fremont River. Culinary water improved in 1933 when a well was drilled that was financed by the Drought Relief Commission; a second well as completed in 1939 by the Civilian Conservation Corps.
A Federal Aviation Agency (FAA) airport was constructed five miles north of Hanksville in 1945. This station still functions as an emergency landing strip and provides current weather data to the busy Los Angeles to Denver route utilized by commercial, private, and military air traffic.
In 1959 a schoolhouse was completed to replace the two-room unit that had housed eight grades since the early organization of the community. At present high school students ride the bus to Bicknell.
Hanksville has always been a hub for mining activity in the area. In 1889 J. C. Summer and Jack Butler developed the Bromide mine in the Henry Mountains. The Turner mine was discovered shortly thereafter; and mine operators treated their ore at Crescent Creek. Today the economy of the area depends heavily upon mining, agriculture, and tourists heading south to Lake Powell. The 1990 census recorded a population of 129 in Hanksville.

This shotgun is a demonstration of what can happen if one does not pay close attention to exactly what item is being bid on at an auction. A similar lesson may be learned at Absentee Bidding.
While attending a gun auction, the author flipped forward in the catalog to determine which guns were coming up later to bid on. When the author flipped back in the catalog to the gun currently being bid on, he noticed the gun in the catalog was a Winchester Model 41 shotgun. Realizing that these shotguns are currently worth about $500.00 in the condition of the one at the auction, the author thought he made a wise investment when he agreed to a bid of $150.00 that made him the new owner of the gun. Total cost for the gun came to $170.40 ($150.00 + $10.00 handling fee + $10.40 6.5% sales tax = $170.40). However, the author soon realized that he did not bid on the Winchester, but on an Eastern Arms Company .410 single shot shotgun that he would not have given $10.00 for (literally). To add insult to injury, the author also had to wait several more hours till the FFL (Federal Firearms License) Background Check was completed and approved before he could resume normal activities. The only question that remains is: Who was the other person bidding on this gun who was willing to pay $140.00 plus fees and taxes! Maybe that person too thought they were bidding on a gun other than the Eastern Arms gun?
For those interested, the Winchester Model 41 shotgun eventually sold for $489.90 ($450.00 + $10.00 + 29.90 = $489.90).
Internet rumors are that guns like the Eastern Arms Company shotgun were sold during the 1920s through the 1950s and are considered to be a "Hardware Gun" that was made for a hardware store by any one of several major manufacturers. They were marked with names like Eastern Arms Co., Central Arms Co., Western Arms Co., Acme Arms Co., Empire Arms. Co., and so on. The Eastern Arms Company was supposedly a trade name for guns sold by Sears & Roebuck and the shotguns are rumored to have been manufactured by either J. Stevens Arms, Iver Johnson, Meriden Firearms, or Harrington & Richardson (H&R).
This particular Eastern Arms Company .410 shotgun is Serial Number 57559. The information below describes and shows the correction and preservation operations performed on this shotgun.
There are no damaged, broken, or missing parts.
None of the metal is dented, bent, cracked, or broken and no metal repairs have been made. The exposed metal has some surface rust with some pitting and some original finish remains. Virtually all of the unexposed metal is in good condition with virtually 100 percent of the original finish remaining.
The wood is cracked in places but none is broken and no wood repairs have been made. The stock and forend appear to have been revarnished because varnish exists on top of small scratches in the wood. There are no missing sections, gouges, deep scratches, or dents in the wood.
Apparently, the gun has had little use because the action is tight and the bore is in excellent condition.

Cultural identities and the aesthetics of Britishness
Dana Arnold
Search for other papers by Dana Arnold in
The need for a single public culture - the creation of an authentic identity - is fundamental to our understanding of nationalism and nationhood. This book considers how manufactured cultural identities are expressed. It explores how notions of Britishness were constructed and promoted through architecture, landscape, painting, sculpture and literature, and the ways in which the aesthetics of national identities promoted the idea of nation. The idea encompassed the doctrine of popular freedom and liberty from external constraint. Particular attention is paid to the political and social contexts of national identities within the British Isles; the export, adoption and creation of new identities; and the role of gender in the forging of those identities. The book examines the politics of land-ownership as played out within the arena of the oppositional forces of the Irish Catholics and the Anglo-Irish Protestant ascendancy. It reviews the construction of a modern British imperial identity as seen in the 1903 durbar exhibition of Indian art. The area where national projection was particularly directed was in the architecture and the displays of the national pavilions designed for international exhibitions. Discussions include the impact of Robert Bowyer's project on the evolution of history painting through his re-representation of English history; the country houses with architectural styles ranging from Gothic to Greek Revivalist; and the place of Arthurian myth in British culture. The book is an important addition to the field of postcolonial studies as it looks at how British identity creation affected those living in England.

Royal tourists, colonial subjects and the making of a British world, 1860–1911
Charles V. Reed
Royal Tourists, Colonial Subjects, and the Making of a British World, 1860-1911 examines the ritual space of nineteenth-century royal tours of empire and the diverse array of historical actors who participated in them. The book is a tale of royals who were ambivalent and bored partners in the project of empire; colonial administrators who used royal ceremonies to pursue a multiplicity of projects and interests or to imagine themselves as African chiefs or heirs to the Mughal emperors; local princes and chiefs who were bullied and bruised by the politics of the royal tour, even as some of them used the tour to symbolically appropriate or resist British cultural power; and settlers of European descent and people of colour in the empire who made claims on the rights and responsibilities of imperial citizenship and as co-owners of Britain's global empire. Royal Tourists, Colonial Subjects, and the Making of a British World suggests that the diverse responses to the royal tours of the nineteenth century demonstrate how a multi-centred British-imperial culture was forged in the empire and was constantly made and remade, appropriated and contested. In this context, subjects of empire provincialized the British Isles, centring the colonies in their political and cultural constructions of empire, Britishness, citizenship, and loyalty.
Civilising rural Ireland
The co-operative movement, development and the nation-state, 1889–1939
Patrick Doyle
Civilising Rural Ireland examines how modern Ireland emerged out of the social and economic transformation prompted by the rural co-operative movement. The movement emerged in response to systemic economic problems that arose throughout the nineteenth century and coincided with a wide-ranging project of cultural nationalism. Within a short space of time the co-operative movement established a swathe of creameries, agricultural societies and credit societies, leading to a radical reorganisation of rural Ireland and helping to create a distinctive Irish political economy. The work of overlooked co-operative experts is critically examined for the first time and reinserted into the process of state development. The interventions of these organisers, intellectuals and farmers built up key institutions that shaped everyday life across rural communities. The movement weathered war and revolution, to become an indispensable part of an Irish state infrastructure after independence in 1922. The strained relationship and economic rivalry that developed between Irish and British co-operators is also explored in order to illuminate the changing relationship between Ireland and the United Kingdom from an economic perspective. Civilising Rural Ireland will appeal to a wide audience interested in modern Irish history and readers are introduced to an eclectic range of personalities who shared an interest in co-operation and whose actions possessed important consequences for the way Ireland developed. The creative use of local and national sources, many of which are examined for the first time, mean the book offers a new perspective on an important period in the making of modern Ireland.
Incest in Sweden, 1680–1940
A history of forbidden relations
Bonnie Clementsson
This study brings out the norms and culturally dependent values that formed the basis of the theoretical regulation and the practical handling of incest cases in Sweden 1680–1940, situating this development in a wider European context. It discusses a broad variety of general human subjects that are as important today as they were hundreds of years ago, such as love, death, family relations, religion, crimes, and punishments.
By analysing criminal-case material and applications for dispensation, as well as political and legislative sources, the incest phenomenon is explored from different perspectives over a long time period. It turns out that although the incest debate has been dominated by religious, moral, and later medical beliefs, ideas about love, age, and family hierarchies often influenced the assessment of individual incest cases. These unspoken values could be decisive – sometimes life-determining – for the outcome of various incest cases.
The book will interest scholars from several different fields of historical research, such as cultural history, the history of crime and of sexuality, family history, history of kinship, and historical marriage patterns. The long time period also broadens the number of potential readers. Since the subject concerns general human issues that are as current today as they were three centuries ago, the topic will also appeal to a non-academic audience.

R. Murray Schafer (no relation) coined the term soundmark, meaning a sound unique to an area, analogous to a landmark. Taking it a step further, Schafer argued that soundmarks should be preserved, since they define the acoustics of the surrounding community. And I agree! Tower bells fit this description. Bells are not so ubiquitous (at least in the US) as to be ordinary. Furthermore, if you listen carefully, you can hear the timbral and tonal differences in sets of bells, which lend themselves to providing a unique aural stamp on a location.

Q: How can I get raw keyboard input in VB.NET? I know that I can use the KeyDown, KeyUp, and KeyPress events to handle keyboard input, but the input uses ASCII input, meaning that it's not smooth (i.e. when I hold down a key, the events are repeated as if I was typing something: triggering it once, waiting half a second, and only then repeating). How can I get raw key input from the keyboard that directly checks whether or not a key is pressed down, instead of looking at the keyboard buffer?

A: It's only the KeyPress event that looks at the keyboard buffer.
When a key is pressed the KeyDown event is triggered, and if it's not a control key (shift, ctrl, alt etc.) it also produces a character for the keyboard buffer which triggers the KeyPress event.
As long as the key is pressed, more characters will be generated for the keyboard buffer, each triggering another KeyPress event.
When a key is released, the KeyUp event is triggered.
To keep track of keys that are pressed, you use the KeyDown and KeyUp events. There is no way to directly check if a key is pressed or not, the keyboard only communicates with the computer by sending down and up events for keys.
Note that the KeyDown event is not always followed by a KeyUp event for the same key, but the events can overlap. Typing an uppercase A for example typically produces these KeyDown and KeyUp events:
KeyDown for shift
KeyDown for a
KeyUp for a
KeyUp for shift
