'Free Lee Suk-ki!': An International Declaration Petition calling for the realization of Freedom of Expression in the Republic of Korea.
6 out of 11 former Presidents of South Korea raised and plotted a rebellion.
There were two types of rebellions in Korean modern history.
The first type is a 'successful coup d'etat'.
The military men of Park Jung-Hee (tenure: 1961~1979), Chun Du H-hwan (tenure: 1980~1987) and Noh Tae-woo (tenure: 1987~1992) staged a military coup in 1961 and 1980, respectively, to take power.
Rhee Syng-Man, the first president of South Korea, (tenure: 1948~1960) was accused of rebellion after his removal. He stepped down from his long dictatorship by the April 19 Revolution, born out of which is the students' pro-democracy movements.
The second type is the fabricated rebellion created and manipulated by the dictators. The dictators who took power by military coup utilized the rebellion events to suppress their political opponents. Kim Dae-Jung (tenure: 1997~2002), when he was a politician in the opposition party, had been sentenced to death under conspiracy charges by the military regime.
Lee Myung-Bak (tenure: 2002~2007) had been convicted of rebellion in his college years, due to his participation in a demonstration opposing the military dictatorship when he was a college student.
Another 'Rebellion' charge without violence attempted to cover up the scandal when the National Intelligence Service (NIS) intervened in the 2012 Presidential Election.
In September 2013, Lee Suk-Ki, a member of the National Assembly, and 6 members of the Unified Progressive Party were accused of rebellion conspiracy, inciting rebellion and violating the National Security Law.
At the time, struggles of the people and the resistance of the opposition party and people against President Park Geun-Hye reached its peak around the NIS scandal, regarding the NIS illegally interfering in the Presidential Election. The recordings taken from Lee Suk-Ki's lecture to the party members was the only evidence.
More than half of the audience were women. Before and after the speech, there was not a single action relating to rebellion and no violent action planned by the participants. The public media, which was critical of the government believed that the government, which was losing its ground, was pushed into a corner due to the presidential election scandal and fabricated the charge, just like many former dictators in history.
In January 2015, the Supreme Court dropped the rebellion conspiracy charge, as not guilty but it still found them guilty of inciting rebellion and/or violating the National Security Law, sentencing them to 9 years of imprisonment for the agitation of rebellion and the violation of National Security Law.
The National Security Law and inciting rebellion charge are the legacy of the Cold War era and the dictatorship.
The National Security Law, which was temporarily established in 1948 to cope with the military risks of North Korea, is legislation designed to criminally accuse dissenters who have a different political opinions.
In particular, the Korean former dictators of Korea had frequently used it together with the clause on incitement of rebellion to make political criticisms a crime against the state. It is clear that the National Security Law is the key obstacle in pursuing the realization of protected rights specified in the International Covenants on Human Rights. A number of non-governmental organizations and foreign governmental agencies of other countries, as well as the United Nations Human Rights Council, have insisted that the Korean government should abolish or amend the law. The incitement of rebellion agitation in the criminal law is the twin act of the National Security Law in its functional terms of the violation of people's freedom of expression. The legal experts and human rights groups in Korea have expressed their concern that the suppression of political opponents will be more devastating with the guilty verdict of the accused of incitement of rebellion.
Recently in Korea, the freedom of expression is being severely hindered. Criticisms toward the government, including the creative activities of artists, and internet activities are being criminally prosecuted. Especially Lee Suk-ki's case, who has been sentenced to 9 years of imprisonment due to his 90 minute lecture.
Abolish the National Security Law and guarantee freedom of expression!
Free Lee Suk-ki and Release the 66 other UPP prisoners immediately!
Stop all sorts of continuing investigations and detentions regarding this case immediately!
Observe and adhere to all of the articles in the International Covenant on Human Rights!

Lufia II: Rise of the Sinistrals, known as Estpolis Denki II (エストポリス伝記II, officially translated Biography of Estpolis II) in Japan, and as simply Lufia in Europe and Australia, is a role-playing video game with puzzle elements developed by Neverland and published in Japan in 1995 by Taito, and in North America and Europe in 1996 by Natsume and Nintendo respectively, for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System.
tas snes lufia ii rise of the sinistrals by gunty in 3 03 12 78
Nintendo DS remake
The game is a prequel to Lufia & the Fortress of Doom. It follows the story of the first main character's ancestor, Maxim, and explains the origins of the war between mankind and a group of gods called the Sinistrals. Lufia II made a number of changes from the first game. Dungeons no longer have random encounters and there are hundreds of puzzles throughout the game, ranging from simple to extremely challenging. It also introduced new skills, such as a variety of weapons that could be used to stun monsters or solve puzzles, and IP attacks. In 2010, Square Enix released a re-imagining of the original game titled Lufia: Curse of the Sinistrals.
In Lufia II, characters walk around an over world map, enter dungeons, fight monsters, buy or find new equipment and spells, and set out on a quest to save the world. The player's party supports up to four characters at once, along with a Capsule Monster. There are various forms of transportation which the player may utilize in order to travel faster than walking, these include; warping, a spell learned early in the game; a boat, modified by Lexis into a submarine and later a blimp. Various casino games are accessible later in the game; these include Pachinco Slot, Black Jack, Slot Machine, Stud Poker, and Action Bingo.
In dungeons, monsters appear on the map, and can be avoided if the player wishes. Motion in dungeons is also turn-based, and monsters do not move unless the player does. Maxim gains a number of tools and weapons for use in dungeons (similar to the The Legend of Zelda titles), such as a bow and arrow, bombs and a hookshot; these, along with his sword, will stun monsters temporarily and interact with obstacles. Finally, dungeons place great emphasis on puzzles. On the world map, monsters are encountered randomly.
Aside from the RPG standards of "Fight," "Use Item" and "Use Magic," characters also have access to IP Skills, which are attached to weapons, armor and accessories. Each character's IP bar fills when he or she takes damage, and is depleted when an available IP skill is invoked. IP Skills take varying amounts of charge to activate. Players can freely wear and customize their characters with different varying sets of these weapons and armor for different IP skill effects and apply them while utilizing tactics during battles. Also, IP Skills themselves cannot be customized, sometimes forcing the player to choose between a newer and stronger piece of gear, or an older, weaker one that has a useful IP Skill.
Capsule monsters are special creatures which the player may only find on specific locations of the world. Once a Capsule monster is found, the party acquires a fifth, computer controlled member. These monsters can be fed items and equipment, and once they are satiated they evolve to a different form, up to a fifth and definitive form, labeled M. Seven of them exist, and each Capsule monster belongs to a different element (Neutral, Light, Wind, Water, Dark, Fire and Soil), and has a different set of skills.
The Ancient Cave, a randomly generated dungeon composed of 99 floors, is presented to the player as a side-quest in the town of Gruberik. Every time the player enters the cave, a new layout is generated, similar to the roguelike genre. Within the cave, the characters are downgraded to zero experience points and stripped of nearly all equipment and items. The player must proceed through the cave's floors, collecting equipment, finding magic spells and increasing levels, with the objective of reaching the Ancient Cave's final floor. There are three ways of exiting the cave: by dying, by reaching its bottom or by finding and using an item exclusive to the cave, named "providence". Within the cave lie two kinds of chests, blue and red. Red chests contain items which can only be used inside the cave for the duration of the playing session. As soon as the player leaves the cave, all items from red chests disappear, except for "Iris Treasures," which cannot be equipped and serve only as collectibles. The rare blue chests contains items which can be used outside the cave and brought back to the cave on subsequent journeys. Some items that can be found in blue chests can also be found by other means, such as monster drops. These can also be taken in and out of the Ancient Cave just as if they were found in blue chests. The bottom floor of the inn in Gruberik serves as a storage for these items.
The game is a prequel, set ninety-nine years before Lufia & the Fortress of Doom, which tells the story of how the Sinistrals first appeared in the world and the battles fought against them. The story is centered around the hero Maxim, a swordsman from the town of Elcid who is born with a natural ability to fight and is destined to destroy the Sinistrals. Throughout his journey, he meets other warriors who are able to confront the Sinistrals as well.
The game's protagonist is Maxim, a talented swordsman from the town of Elcid. Little about his past is mentioned in the game, but the game begins to follow him when a mysterious woman named Iris tells him that he is to go on a journey.
Throughout the game, Maxim is joined by other talented warriors or 'Heroes of Legend' such as Tia, his childhood friend, who has a romantic interest in Maxim; Guy, a wandering warrior who joins Maxim after he rescued his sister; Dekar, the powerful bodyguard of Prince Alex of Bound Kingdom; Lexis, a brilliant inventor; Artea, an elven bowman; and Selan, commander of the Parcelyte army who becomes Maxim's wife in mid-story.
The game's antagonists are the Sinistrals, a group of four godlike beings bent on world domination. They are led by Daos, the Sinistral of Terror, who seeks an ultimate weapon to use against the people of the world. His three subordinates are Gades, the Sinistral of Destruction, who is credited with the destruction of two entire cities; Amon, the Sinistral of Chaos, who is known to be a brilliant tactician; and Erim, the Sinistral of Death.
The North American release of the game has a few graphical and textual glitches which were corrected in the European version. The European versions were released in English, German, Spanish and Dutch for distribution in Australia, Germany, Spain and the Netherlands respectively. The Australian version was released in 1997, one year after the North American version. Both the European and Australian releases of the game were titled "Lufia", not "Lufia 2", and included no subtitles because Lufia & the Fortress of Doom was never released in Europe and Australia.
The game was met with positive reviews upon its release and its reputation has continued to grow throughout the years. It currently has an aggregate review score of 87% on GameRankings. Upon its original Japanese release, Famitsu gave the game a score of 30 out of 40, while it received a perfect score of 10 out of 10 in their Reader Cross Review. Upon its North American release in 1996, GameFan magazine gave it a score of 90 out of 100, describing it as "one of Japan's favorite RPGs for over a year! The music, puzzles (which are most intriguing), storyline and anything else you can think of are all new and improved. (Lufia II) is put together very well."
An action-RPG remake of Lufia II for the Nintendo DS was developed by Neverland, with much of the staff of Lufia II involved in the project, and released in 2010. As in the original game, it features dungeons that focus heavily on puzzle-solving, but unlike the original, the gameplay is now oriented towards action, with the player controlling Maxim directly in battle and switching between characters by tapping his or her portrait on the bottom screen. The story also differs heavily in many points and received several additions.

Home SPURS FAN CAVE Derrick White appears primed to make the final Team USA roster
Derrick White appears primed to make the final Team USA roster
Marilyn Dubinski August 17, 2019 Spurs News Leave a Comment
Photo by Andrew D. Bernstein/NBAE via Getty Images
With more dropouts, the Spurs guard should not only make the team, but receive playing time as well.
Team USA is down to 13 players to choose from to make their 12-man roster for the FIBA World Cup in China. That includes the Spurs' own Derrick White, who has risen from camp invitee, to Select Team member, to being named to the senior roster with a chance to make the final cut.
That chance seems better than ever with P.J. Tucker dropping out due to an ankle injury and De'Aaron Fox surprisingly withdrawing after experiencing a similar rapid rise up the ranks as White. He reportedly played a team low 6 minutes in Friday's exhibition win over Spain and may have been unhappy about being — coached? As ESPN reported:
During USA Basketball's 97-78 exhibition win over the select team on Aug. 6, Fox scored 12 points and had three rebounds, three assists, three steals and two blocks in 15 minutes. He also made 6 of 9 shots, but Fox said Team USA head coach Gregg Popovich got on him for passing up shots.
Whatever Fox' reasons for withdrawing (he's calling it "preparing for the NBA season"), it's good news for White, whose main competition at this point is an injured Marcus Smart. He has yet to participate due to a calf injury, although he remains confident he'll be ready to go by the time the World Cup starts and has no plans of withdrawing himself.
Beyond White and Smart, the only other true point guard on the team is Kemba Walker, so not only does White appear primed to make Team USA, but he could receive plenty of playing time as well following his impressive run throughout training camp.
Pop has until August 30 to make a final decision on the roster. The tournament will take place from August 31 through September 15, and Team USA will play the group stage in Shanghai against Turkey, Japan, and the Czech Republic.

A pair of suicide bombers targeted a police station in a shopping district in central Damascus today, killing at least 14 people and wounding 31 other. The explosions did major damage to shops in the surrounding area.
The attack was near Martyrs Square, which has been regularly targeted over the course of the ongoing Syrian Civil War, but it is the first strike in six weeks, as fighting has mostly taken place outside of Damascus.
So far there has been no claim of responsibility by any particular rebel faction, but suicide bombings have been a common tactic of Jabhat al-Nusra, which has also shown a particular interest for carrying out attacks in the capital city.
Syrian officials said that the attack made them more determined than ever to move against the rebels in the northern city of Aleppo, saying they believe they have the momentum to oust them from the key industrial hub.
Our taxpayers' dollars at work.
The barbarians have no other option but blowing up themselves and som innocent people.., no matter if they are sent from Saudi Arabia, UAE or EU…, a barbarian is always a barbarian.., a barbarian is good when is used by the enemy of the Syrian people.., otherwise they good for absolutely nothing.
for some King or Shah to be in power and rule and exploit him???
exploited from their rulers like Europeans 400 years ago!!
And for that the really poor people are killing themselves??
they at least have some self respect.

By pairing experts with would-be entrepreneurs, Chicago Innovation Mentors is creating a path for new technologies.
Paul A. Fehrenbacher and two fellow graduate students at Northwestern University are postponing their graduations to develop a technology to help surgeons identify and keep from accidentally cutting blood vessels.
Daniel Leventhal, a doctoral student in cancer biology at the University of Chicago, is helping advise two professors working to develop new ways of treating cancer with less radiation or by making radiation treatment more effective.
Both Fehrenbacher, 34, and Leventhal, 26, are benefiting from Chicago's little-known biotech incubator, Chicago Innovation Mentors, or CIM.
CIM pairs would-be biotech entrepreneurs with seasoned experts, and provides hands-on business experience to aspiring biotech entrepreneurs, faculty and graduate and post-doctorate students. The students face an increasingly tight job market in academia.
The long-term goal is to give students, professors and entrepreneurs the skills to create biotech companies in Chicago, and to build a community strong enough to keep those companies, jobs and brainpower here.
The effort to birth biotech companies is occurring as Chicago aims to boost the industry's presence here. The world's largest biotech conference, the BIO International Convention, meets April 22-25 at McCormick Place. In advance of the convention, Gov. Pat Quinn is slated to unveil a study on Illinois' biotech sector. A research report last year put Illinois' biotech industry at 3,400 sites and companies, called "establishments," employing about 80,000.
CIM's monthly meetings act much like "The Voice," the NBC-TV reality singing competition in which contestants vie for coaches who can help them become stars. Most teams get three to five mentors — volunteer experts who have no vested interest in the startups.
It's a unique program nationally because three rival universities — Northwestern University, the University of Chicago, the University of Illinois at Chicago and the University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana — cooperate to send would-be student and faculty entrepreneurs to the matchup meetings. Other CIM members include Argonne National Laboratory, the iBIO Institute's Propel Center, the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago and the Chicago Biomedical Consortium.
Alan Thomas, director of UChicagoTech, the University of Chicago's technology transfer and intellectual property office, is credited with starting CIM with four colleagues — Alicia Loffler, Nancy Sullivan, David Miller and David Tiemeier.
John Flavin, a serial biotech entrepreneur, is the executive director and has grown the organization to 147 mentors advising 62 ventures.
Fehrenbacher, the Northwestern medical student, co-founded the surgery-tech startup, BriteSeed, after he and fellow students Muneeb A. Bokhari, a law student at the time; Jonathan W. Gunn, a law-school student, and Mayank Vijayvergia, a master's level biomedical engineering student, watched their class-team mentor, Dr. David M. Mahvi, perform surgeries.
They came up with the idea of SafeSnips near-infrared technology that can be integrated into surgeons' cutting tools to give a real-time, bird's-eye view of blood vessels.
The aim is to keep surgeons from accidentally cutting the wrong vessels at less cost than rivals' solutions. Mahvi, the vice chair of surgery and chief of gastrointestinal and oncologic surgery at Northwestern, served as the students' mentor in the "NUvention: Medical Innovation" program at the university. BriteSeed won the NUvention competition, as well as business-plan competitions at Chicago's Techweek and New York's Healthcare Innovation Group.
The BriteSeed leaders pitched their idea to CIM in July, and attracted six mentors, ranging from a serial entrepreneur to an intellectual property attorney to a cardiovascular surgeon who runs his own investment fund.
"To be able to have such expert knowledge from a variety of backgrounds provided us with the support, courage and fortitude we have today," Fehrenbacher said.
Fehrenbacher, Gunn and Vijayvergia are delaying their graduations to work full-time on their company.
BriteSeed is partnering with Ravenswood-based Insight Product Development to develop a prototype of their technology.
The CIM Fellows program, run by the University of Chicago, assigns graduate students and post-doctorate students in the biosciences to work with professors who are making discoveries in the lab.
The big goals are to help mankind by advancing breakthrough technologies; enhance a university's reputation with an innovative discovery; and let the students and faculty, or just the students, start their own companies and become biotech or life-sciences entrepreneurs, said Dr. (MD) Steven Gould, an entrepreneur-in-residence at the University of Chicago's Office of Technology and Intellectual Property who was the first to mentor the bioscience graduate and doctoral students. He is also founder and principal of the Gould Consulting Group.
Students need experience figuring out how to get lab discoveries into the marketplace, partly because only 15 to 20 percent can get faculty jobs in academia. It's a bubble created after federal funding for biosciences trainees got cut.
Besides, more faculty have an interest in starting private companies based on their lab work, but don't have time to dedicate to a full-time venture, so why not let the students do the risk-taking and heavy lifting?
Michael Seiler, who started the University of Chicago's Biotechnology Association to help the PhD and post-doc students gain business skills and get jobs, said the university has 300 biotech post-docs, and Northwestern University has 850 in engineering and life sciences.
Those students need to learn how to write business plans that explain a technology's value so they can "take researchers' cool ideas into the commercial space," he said.
Seiler, vice president for scientific development at molecular-technology startup ArborVita Associates, said the skills he learned through CIM boosted the company's ability to raise $190,000 in seed funding. Arbor Vita has set up a lab at the Illinois Institute of Technology's University Technology Park.
Leventhal, the University of Chicago doctoral candidate who is vice-president of the school's Biotechnology Association, is working with two professors to develop the idea of treating prostate cancer with a new treatment that requires less radiation or more effective radiation.Professors Stephen Kron and Dr. Ralph Weichselbaum call their startup Oncosenescence, a mixture of terms meaning stopping cancer cells from growing.
Leventhal remains unsure about a career, but he said the experience has given him terrific insights into how to work in the private-sector.
"The more we integrate biotech entrepreneurship into the universities and bolster students' and faculty training, the greater the chances it will bring more biotech to Chicago because there will be qualified job candidates," he said.

The Excessive Sameness of Politics and Hotelling's Main Street
A lot of politicians may sound like they have differentiated view on the campaign trail, but either during the campaign or after being elected, they seem to become homogenized and squishy in their views. Thus, many voters of all political dispositions are continually frustrated because they feel as if all politicians are discomfortingly alike. Maybe you want to vote for someone who isn't a hanging-off-the-ideological-cliff extremist, but you would like to vote for someone with clear and definite views--even if you differ with some of those views. To quote a phrase associated with the Goldwater presidential campaign of 1964, but applicable to all sides of the political spectrum, many voters feel that they want "a choice, not an echo."
A famous long-ago economist named Harold Hotelling proposed a classic explanation for this phenomenon back in a paper called "Stability in Competition," published in the March 1929 issue of the Economic Journal (39:153, pp. 41-57).
In one of his illustrations, Hotelling discussed the of two sellers of a product who are thinking about where to locate along Main Street. For simplicity, imagine that the addresses along the street are numbered from 1-100. The working assumption is that customers are spread evenly along Main Street, and the customers will go to whichever store is located closer to them. In this situation, if one store locates at, say, 10 Main Street, the other store will then choose to at 11 Main Street. The first store will then get all the customers from 0-10, and the second store will get all the customers from 11-100. The first store will then relocate to 12 Main Street, to snag the majority of customers, and the two stores will keep leap-frogging each other and relocating until they end up located side by side, right in the middle of Main Street.
As Hotelling pointed out back in 1929, this clustering is not ideal. From the consumers's point of view, it would be more useful to have the two stores located at 25 Main Street and 75 Main Street, because then no consumer along the street from 1 to 100 would be more than 25 away from a store. But the dynamics of competition can lead to excessive clustering.
Hotelling argued that this excessive sameness is apparent in many aspects of public competition, including competition between firms introducing new products, and competition between Republicans and Democrats. He wrote:
"Buyers are confronted everywhere with an excessive sameness. When a new merchant or manufacturer sets up shop he must not produce something exactly like what is already on the market or he will risk a price war ... But there is an incentive to make the new product very much like the old, applying some slight change which will seem an improvement to as many buyers as possible without ever going far in this direction. The tremendous standardisation of our furniture, our houses, our clothing, our automobiles and our education are due in part to the economies of large-scale production, in part·to fashion and imitation. But over and above these forces is the effect we have been discussing, the tendency to make only slight deviations in order to have for the new commodity as many buyers of the old as possible, to get, so to speak, between·one's competitors and a mass of customers.
So general is this tendency that it appears in the most diverse fields of competitive activity, even quite apart from what is called economic life. In politics it is strikingly exemplified. The competition for votes between the Republican and Democratic parties does not lead to a clear drawing of issues, an adoption of two strongly contrasted positions between which the voter may choose. Instead, each party strives, to make its platform as much like the other's as possible. Any radical departure would lose many votes, even though it might lead to stronger commendation of the party by some who would vote for it anyhow. Each candidate " pussyfoots," replies ambiguously to questions, refuses to take a definite stand in any controversy for fear of losing votes. Real differences, if they ever exist, fade gradually with time though the issues may be as important as ever. The Democratic party, once opposed to protective tariffs, moves gradually to a position almost, but not quite, identical with that of the Republicans. It need have no fear of fanatical free-traders, since they will still prefer it to the Republican party, and its advocacy of a continued high tariff will bring it the money and votes of some intermediate groups.
Of course, it's not literally true that Republican and Democratic politicians both locate exactly in the middle of the political spectrum. Hotelling was describing a tendency to push to the middle, but in politics, there is also a need to assure your voters that you share their beliefs. Thus, there's a saying that American politics is a battle fought between the 40-yard lines. (For those unfamiliar with the line markers on an American football field, the statement suggests that the political battle is fought between the addresses of 40 and 60 on a Hotelling-style Main Street.) Mainstream politicians thus face a continual dynamic where they seek to reassure their more ardent partisans that they are on their side, while shading and tacking as needed to pick up voters in the middle. At an intuitive level, politicians recognize that offering "a choice, not an echo" is part of what led Barry Goldwater to a loss of historic magnitude in the 1964 US presidential election.
Political competition that is usually between centrists, whether right-of-center or left-of-center, does have some benefits. Extremists are much less likely to win high office. And even when the other side wins, it's reassuring to think that the person who won is at least closer to the center than the true believers at the extreme of that side. But every now and then, many of us yearn for a few more conviction politicians, who say what they mean and mean what they say, who play a greater role in driving the public debate, and who are OK with the possibility that doing so might end up costing them an election.
[For the record, using the metaphor of a football field to describe the range of political choice seems to have originated with the 1970 best-seller The Real Majority: An Extraordinary Examination of the American Electorate, by Ben Wattenberg and Richard M. Scammon. But they used the image to discuss how political conflict might sometimes be between those near the middle and sometimes between those at with more extreme positions. The claim that American politics usually happens between the 40 yard-lines is one of those statements that seems to have evolved afterwards, without a clear single author.]

The Rhode Island School of Design hosted the 18th Annual Animation Show of Shows Saturday. The Show of Shows premiered Sept. 30 at the Cable Car Cinema.
The Show of Shows is a collection of 16 short animated videos curated by Ron Diamond, executive producer of Acme Filmworks, Inc. and co-founder and president of Animation World Network. These short films come from countries around the world, such as Latvia, Korea, Belgium, France, the United Kingdom, Israel, Russia, Canada, Norway and the United States.
The films were all unique. Some such as "Pearl" or "About a Mother" dealt with the themes of parenthood. These left a particularly bittersweet taste, as the viewer is confronted by the sweet sadness of a child growing up and moving away from home. Others were more humorous, such as the Korean "Afternoon Class" that gave epic proportions to a student's struggle to stay awake during class. Some films were far darker, focusing on barbarity, suicide or the Norwegian concept of the Bøygen — "the formless obstacle," as it was described by director Kristian Pederson.
Some of the films used sophisticated computer animation technology to bring the characters to life, while others were entirely hand drawn. Some were black and white, while others were a burst of watercolors. Certain videos were productions from DreamWorks or Disney, while one was entirely drawn by a Russian art student as a final project.
A notable example of a breathtaking solo production was the work of Ainslie Henderson. "Stems" is Henderson's celebration of stop-motion puppets. The puppets he created come to life before the viewer's eyes and make music among themselves. Puppets have an "inherent sadness about them," Hendersen says in a voice-over. "They have a tiny little life" that blooms before the viewer's eyes.

Wes Montgomery, właśc. John Leslie Montgomery (ur. 6 marca 1923 w Indianapolis, zm. 15 czerwca 1968 tamże) – amerykański gitarzysta jazzowy. Znany z techniki gry na gitarze elektrycznej w której do wydobywania dźwięków nie używał kostki gitarowej, tylko mięsistej części kciuka prawej ręki. W ten sposób uzyskał nieznany wcześniej cieplejszy ton instrumentu. Łączył rytmy swingowe i oktawowe solówki, w które umiejętnie wplatał akordy lub pojedyncze dźwięki. Stał się inspiracją dla większości wykonawców gitarowego jazzu.

Kariera
Na gitarze zaczął grać w wieku 19 lat i nauczył się wszystkich solówek gitarowych Charliego Christiana. Słuchał też Django Reinhartda. Podczas pierwszych występów w lokalnych klubach grał ze swoimi braćmi: basistą Monkiem Montgomerym i wibrafonistą Buddym Montgomerym. Następnie, w roku 1948 wstąpił w szeregi zespołu Lionela Hamptona. Po opuszczeniu go dwa lata później wrócił do grania z braćmi i założył zespół Mastersounds, później przemianowany na Montgomery Brothers. Często odwiedzanym przez nich miejscem był klub Missile Room, w którym grą Montgomerego zachwycił się saksofonista, współpracujący z Milesem Davisem Cannonball Adderley, który załatwił mu kontrakt z wytwórnią Riverside Records prowadzoną przez Orrina Keepnewsa. Dla Riverside gitarzysta nagrał wiele albumów, które dzisiaj są uważane za przełomowe w historii gitary jazzowej. Współpracował z legendarnymi pianistami Wyntonem Kellym i Tommym Flanaganem oraz bębniarzem Jimmym Cobbem. W późniejszym okresie działalności artystycznej tworzył muzykę z udziałem orkiestr pod przewodnictwem znakomitych aranżerów: Dona Sebeskyego, Clausa Ogermana i Olivera Nelsona. Płyty te odniosły duży sukces komercyjny w Stanach Zjednoczonych. Zmarł w swoim domu w Indianapolis, rankiem 15 czerwca 1968 roku z powodu nagłego ataku serca. Miał wówczas 45 lat i był u szczytu swojej kariery.

Collaborative research is the cornerstone of the Ragon Institute. Within the institute, many laboratories focus on common research areas in order to make the best use of time and resources.
The majority of individuals newly infected with HIV-1 develop a transient symptomatic illness, associated with high levels of HIV-1 replication and an expansive antiviral immune response.
It is during this initial cycle of viral replication that important pathogenic processes are thought to occur. These include the seeding of virus to a range of tissue reservoirs and the destruction of CD4+ T lymphocytes, in particular within the lymphoid tissues of the gut.
The very high levels of HIV-1 viremia are normally short-lived, indicating that the host is able to generate an immune response that controls viral replication. Over the following weeks, viremia declines by several orders of magnitude before reaching a setpoint point of viral replication that is a strong predictor of the speed of HIV-1 disease progression.
Several factors can influence viral replication during acute infection and the establishment of a viral setpoint, including the fitness of the infecting virus, host genetic factors and host immune responses. This initial phase of the infection therefore represents an ideal scenario to investigate and identify the correlates of protective immunity in HIV-1 infection.
The overall goal of the Acute HIV-1 Infection research efforts at the Ragon Institute is to define predictable elements of the virus-host interaction that occur during acute HIV infection, and exploit these to guide effective HIV vaccine design.
HIV-specific CD8 T cells (CTL) specifically recognize and kill virus-infected cells because infected cells display at their surface HIV epitopes loaded onto MHC-I molecules.
The intracellular degradation of HIV proteins into epitopes –called HIV antigen processing- is a multistep process involving multiple peptidases in several subcellular compartments.Eventually peptides are loaded onto MHC-I and presented to CTL. Therefore the steps leading to epitope presentation are critical to the priming and activation of HIV-specific immune responses during HIV infection.
Very little is known about how HIV proteins are degraded into epitopes and how the efficiency of epitope processing relates to the phenotype and antiviral functions of the corresponding CTL responses.
Furthermore HIV viral mutations may alter the processing and presentation of epitopes and eventually the recognition of infected cells by CTL.
Finally as efficient HIV vaccines aim at eliciting CTL responses with strong antiviral capacity, it is therefore necessary to understand how to design immunogens from which protective epitopes will be selectively and optimally presented.
The goal of the International HIV Controllers Study is to help scientists understand why some people are able to control HIV infection without the need to take any medications. These findings could assist in the development of vaccines and new therapies.

The innate immune response represents the body's first line of defense against pathogens.
Cells of the innate immune system, including natural killer cells, monocytes, and dendritic cells, constantly survey the body for non-self antigens through a vast array of non-specific pattern recognition molecules. Upon activation, innate immune cells respond rapidly, without the need for prior antigen sensitization, and have been shown to play a central role in the early control of the foreign invader as well as in the induction of the ensuing adaptive immune response.
Increasing evidence suggests that the first events that occur between the virus and the host following HIV-1 infection determine the speed of disease progression, suggesting that the quality of the innate immune response may have a profound impact on the ability of the immune system to gain control over the infecting virus.
Different components of the innate immune system can impact HIV-1 pathogenesis. Persistent stimulation of immune cells via Toll-like receptors (TLR), either due to intestinal translocation of microbial TLR4 ligands during chronic infection or due to stimulation of TLR7/8 by HIV-1-encoded nucleotide repeats, can drive immune activation providing a fertile environment for the virus replication.
Epidemiologic and functional studies demonstrate that the combined expression of specific NK cell receptors along with their HLA class I ligands is associated with slower disease progression, suggesting that NK cells may place vital early control over HIV-1 replication.
Furthermore, HIV-1 can modulate dendritic cell functions, and an altered DC phenotype/maturation status has a dramatic impact on the quality of the adaptive immune response to the virus.
Investigators at the Ragon Institute are actively engaged in defining the innate immune pathways involved in HIV-1 pathogenesis, and are exploring ways to harness innate immunity to gain more effective control over HIV-1 replication.
As part of the Ragon Institute's overall goal to study the pathogenesis of HIV and ultimately develop an effective vaccine, the Virology Platform was established, creating a critical infrastructure which provides a centralized facility for preparation, titreing, and storage of HIV stocks for immunological and virological studies, as well as viral sequencing services and the evaluation of viral replication capacity of HIV strains and constructs.


Erin Hanson. Unique, different, colorful, fabulous! I love her paintings. Just look at these fabulous tree shadows, that wonderful color against the purple and the magical trees. Talk about drawing you in! Wow. Erin's work is fresh.
Another one of Erin's paintings that just blew me away. I feel as if I'm right there in the Arizona desert with her. Erin hikes, rock climbs and visits all kinds of wonderful locations. Be sure to read her bio, it's amazing, as is her website. She gives so many details for those looking to buy. Very nice!
Hanging precariously and horizontally from red sandstone, hundreds of feet above the ground, may not seem like it would inspire the creation of beautiful oil paintings, but that is exactly what happened with Erin Hanson. After a lifetime of experimenting in different styles and mediums, it wasn't until Hanson began rock climbing at Red Rock Canyon that her painting style was consolidated by a single inspiration and force of nature.
Erin Hanson began painting as a young girl, voraciously learning oils, acrylics, watercolor, pen and ink, pastels, and life drawing from accomplished art instructors. She began commissioning paintings at age ten, and by age twelve, she was employed after school by a mural studio, learning the techniques of acrylics on the grand scale of forty-foot canvases. Two years later, a high school scholarship took her to Otis College of Art, where she immersed herself in figure drawing. Graduating high school at age sixteen and once again demonstrating that she was a child prodigy, Hanson next attended UC Berkeley, excelling further in her studies and creative development and attaining a degree in Bioengineering.
After graduating from college, Hanson entered the art trade as a professional, inspired by landscapes and vantage points only beheld by the most adventurous. Rock climbing among the brilliantly colored cliffs of Nevada and Utah, watching the seasons and the light change daily across the desert, provided endless inspiration for her work. In these beautiful surroundings, Hanson decided firmly to dedicate herself to creating one painting every week for the rest of her life. She has stuck to that decision ever since and has for the past decade been developing a unique, minimalist technique of placing impasto paint strokes without layering, which has become known as "Open-Impressionism." As other artists began emulating her painting techniques, Hanson was credited as the pioneer and originator of this contemporary style.
Through the years, Hanson has continued to use the outdoors to inspire a huge collection of work. She visits the Colorado plateau every year, backpacking and hiking through areas such as Zion National Park, Canyon de Chelly, and Monument Valley. Other favorite haunts include Paso Robles, Joshua Tree National Park, and the Anza-Borrego desert. Erin Hanson transforms these landscapes into abstract mosaics of color and texture, her impasto application of paint lending a sculptural effect to her art. Her oil paintings stand out in a crowd, bringing a fresh new look to Western landscapes.

"I believe that solving difficult problems requires a tremendous ability to simplify."
Robbie Bach is convinced that solving difficult problems requires a tremendous ability to simplify – getting caught up in the complexity of a situation reduces our ability to grab the low hanging fruit that can create great momentum. To that end, his book Xbox Revisited: A Game Plan for Corporate and Civic Renewal explores the 3P Strategy Framework which simplifies problems by focusing on the critical items of Purpose, Principles, and Priorities. These 3Ps, when combined with a short list of action items, help teams and individuals tackle almost any type of problem, but especially those that feel the most intractable or complex.
Bach's 3P Framework is predicated on the Rule of 3s and 5s. Based on hundreds of presentations in front of large crowds or small groups, he knows that leaders can present at most three ideas if they want anyone to remember them. Shifting from communications to action, he extends the Rule of 3s with a corollary principle called the Rule of 5s: any list of strategies, tactics or programs must be limited to a total of 5 action items to ensure that resources are allocated appropriately to the projects that are most important.
So what is Purpose and why is it so important? Every great, enduring strategy has a strong foundation – a touchstone that forms the core strategic direction for the group or organization. The purpose is a short, declarative statement that answers the questions "why do we exist as an organization?" and "what is it we are creating as a company?" As the architectural basis for the strategy, an organization's purpose should remain constant for a long period of time, requiring great thought and foresight in creating the statement itself. It has to be aspirational enough to stand the test of time and yet realistic enough for people to believe it can be achieved. Although not immutable, purpose statements are meant to be long-lived directional beacons which change rarely and only then based on careful consideration.
If purpose is the foundation for a strategy, principles are the frame of the house that create the shape and scope of the endeavor. Put another way, principles are the guard rails that ensure that organizations stay on course both strategically and morally, avoiding the inevitable distractions and marketplace noise that often mislead or confuse. Importantly, they enable employees to make real tradeoffs and decisions ensuring that the correct tactics are pursued and prioritized properly. These statements reveal up to five key beliefs about important strategy components such as customers, employees, and financial performance. They also codify certain elements of organizational culture that are important to the future success of the group. Principles are not specific programs or initiatives but rather are higher level concepts that endure for many years, in most cases changing only with a change in purpose.
With a solid foundation and support structure provided by purpose and principles, an organization or leader can establish a set of priorities that define the layout of the rest of the strategy building. Priorities define the five (and no more than five) key initiatives and investments that will drive an organization or individual over the next 1-3 years. These five priorities are those areas that MUST be resourced and managed successfully – while other tactical and operational programs coexist or support these priorities, any other major initiatives are either postponed or ignored altogether. The leadership team uses these priorities to create a specific annual plan with matching measurable deliverables and objectives. At the end of each year (or some other appropriate period), the team evaluates their progress against the priorities, makes any adjustments, and creates the plan for the coming period. In this way, the priorities portion of the strategic plan incorporates the flexibility necessary to stay current with competitive and market conditions as well as the performance of the team. It also forms the bridge from long-range strategic planning to annual operating budgets and plans.
A strong 3P Framework is an important element in a successful strategy, but other tools and activities are required to translate the framework into positive outcomes. In establishing priorities, additional techniques such as a SWOT analysis, Porter's Five Forces model, a BCG quadrant analysis, and competitive simulations can all be quite useful. Additionally, the leadership team must do an excellent job communicating and rolling the strategy out to the broader team to ensure understanding and buy-in. At this phase, a strong three page summary of the 3P Framework is especially effective because it is long enough to capture the ideas but brief enough to ensure that it gets read.
As a team moves into execution mode, more detailed plans are required – something often referred to as a "30 page plan". This document or presentation expands on the concepts in the three-pager to enable specific teams to operationalize the priorities that have been established. Ultimately, they will write much more detailed plans (the "300 page specification") to ensure that all of the specifics line up with the original concepts and approaches.
Performance review relative to the previous year's objectives.
An update to the competitive and market situation and a validation of the established purpose and principles.
Updates, if any are required, to the priorities.
Creation of a new annual budget which includes financials, people resources, and programs.
Communication phase including updates to the 3-30-300 plans to ensure team is current on the go-forward plan.
Over time, a team that can establish this rhythm dramatically increases its likelihood of success in the market.

Q: Eval form after symbol has been defined I have a function permanent-set-key that automates adding key-binding definitions, both local and global, to an init file. When the user requests to add a local key-binding, the function determines the current local keymap using this pretty robust approach from the answer to a question I asked earlier.
So now I know the symbol-name of the (current-local-map) and have the appropriate sexp that will define the desired key, for example:
(define-key python-shell-map [3 6] 'python-describe-symbol)

However, at the time of initialization, usually such maps are undefined, so eagerly evaluating the form above will cause error.
What is a robust programmatic approach to scheduling these forms to be eval-ed at the appropriate time?
What I have been doing so far has been to assume a minor mode exists for the current local map, and then guess the name of the minor mode's file in order to wrap the above sexp in an eval-after-load form, according to the convention foo-mode-mode-map. For example, this was generated automatically:
(eval-after-load 'dired '(define-key dired-mode-map [8388711] 'run_gdmap_dired))

and happens to work (since there does indeed exist a dired mode and file).
For the first example, this approach does not work: there does not exist a python-shell minor or major mode. The major mode comint-mode handles several "sub-modes" so adding to it customizations desired for only the "python" version does not seem appropriate.
How can I determine the name of the file which will define a symbol such as python-shell-map?
I suppose I could use after-load-functions and check for all new symbols that may have been defined, but maybe there is a more direct solution.

A: I just found my own answer, thanks to an apropos that I hadn't noticed earlier:
(symbol-file SYMBOL &optional TYPE)

For more information check the manuals.

Return the name of the file that defined SYMBOL.
The value is normally an absolute file name.  It can also be nil,
if the definition is not associated with any file.  If SYMBOL
specifies an autoloaded function, the value can be a relative
file name without extension.

If TYPE is nil, then any kind of definition is acceptable.  If
TYPE is `defun', `defvar', or `defface', that specifies function
definition, variable definition, or face definition only.

[back]

So this works:
(symbol-file 'python-shell-map)--> "/usr/share/emacs/23.3/lisp/progmodes/python.elc"

Edit:
Just to make this more explicit:
(format "(eval-after-load \"%s\" '%s)" (symbol-file keymap-symbol) define-key-sexp)

A: An alternative path to get the behavior you're looking for might be to generate code of the form:
(add-hook '<MAJOR-MODE>-hook
          (lambda () (local-set-key <KEY> <BINDING>)))

this way you don't need to care about the keymap's name nor the file name in which that keymap variable is initialized.

A: Corrected after comments: that works for me with shipped python.el of 24.3:
(eval-after-load 'python-mode (lambda ()
  (funcall (define-key inferior-python-mode-map MY-KEY COMMAND))))

A: Another solution that I ended up using eventually was to use the after-load-functions hook to define a function eval-after-sym-loaded, which evaluates a 0-ary function as soon as the given symbol becomes bound after a load-file call--possibly immediately:
(defun eval-after-sym-loaded (sym fun)
  "funcall the 0-argument function `fun' only after `sym' has been bound after a `load-file'
if `sym' is already bound, call `fun' immediately"
  (if (boundp sym)
      (funcall fun)
    (push (cons sym fun) eval-after-sym-loaded-alist)))

(defvar eval-after-sym-loaded-alist nil
  "alist used internally by eval-after-sym-loaded")

(defun eval-after-sym-loaded-hook (file-loaded)
  (setf eval-after-sym-loaded-alist
    (loop for (sym . fun) in eval-after-sym-loaded-alist
          if (boundp sym) do
              (funcall fun)
          else collect (cons sym fun))))

(add-hook 'after-load-functions 'eval-after-sym-loaded-hook)

;; example usage:

(eval-after-sym-loaded 'html-mode-map
                       (lambda () (message "the symbol 'html-mode-map has been loaded!")))

(eval-after-sym-loaded 'js-mode-map
                       (lambda () (message "the symbol 'js-mode-map has been loaded!")))

Homepage › Reviews › Movie › Train to Busan
Train to Busan was released in 2016 as a zombie thriller directed by Yeon Sang-ho where a zombie outbreak occurs on a train, endangering the safety of passengers. With an animated prequel, Seoul Station, released a month later, this movie duology took the summer box office by storm.
As a divorced fund manager, Seo-wook struggles to care for his young daughter, Soo-an. With his mother taking care of home life while he works himself to a near stupor, it comes to his sudden attention that Soo-an wants to go see her mother that lives in Busan for her upcoming birthday.
After some meek arguments, Seo-wook caves and decides to take his daughter to the next city as a proper gift, one that she would enjoy unlike the Wii he'd invested in. As the next day arrives, Seo-wook notices fire trucks, ambulances, and a load of police cars making their way through traffic on and off. He thinks nothing of it while boarding him and his daughter on the train, letting his ex-wife know they are on the way.
While hell manifests in the city as the train makes through the ominous tracks to either salvation or their impending doom, an outbreak on the other carriers forces Seo-wook to group up with surviving passengers in hopes of getting out alive.
If you know anything about me, it has to be how zombie movies make my life...even the ones that would make you question being friends with me. There's always that thrill of being in those shoes (unless it's Dawn of the Dead because there's so much unnecessary sex in that mall, good lord). Train to Busan reminds me much of World War Z. It could quite possibly be in the same universe as such, given the magnificent portrayal of zombies and how quickly they turn.
The plot doesn't take long to develop. I mean, how far can developing a zombie outbreak go other than quick action and a lot of neck biting? Unlike the norm, I fell in love with Train to Busan because of the range of characters. From high school students to newly married couples struggling to survive while the mental break of others drives them astray; it's a whole lot of adrenaline-pumping fun.
My only complaint with this piece is that it ran far too long than it should've. It's a two-hour-something movie that starts off great in the beginning and end, but loses me for a few scenes during the middle. I do like the technical way of having to save others by outsmarting these brain-eaters, but I think they could've done away with the nonsensical high-school romance that ends in mere demise.
All-in-all, this is definitely a movie you can watch by yourself or with a group on a Saturday night when you just want to get Chili's take-out. Even if it ends up being rubbish food, you'll have a pretty awesome movie night.

Mobility as continuous connection is demonstrating as an online game changer within the software sector. Yahoo and Google are top rated the charge because they build extremely scalable applications in the cloud. Period noticed a significant pattern in solutions that prolonged the power of people's pcs throughout the connectivity with their internet connection. From Photo bucket to Quick books, shoppers and businesses are keeping more and more in their important info online. The ever rising amount of offered net books is a testament to the strength of website-dependent software and raising reliability of website-dependent storage options.
Microsoft's approach of establishing software having a huge amount of bells and whistle is a comparison shotgun to Google's sniper rifle. Don't misunderstand me; several applications such as Excel are enormously powerful instruments that truthfully blow apart your competitors with regards to characteristics. Even so, frequently the overwhelming quantity of special features can depart an end user trying to find the primary functions in which they get probably the most worth from your item. Taking a look at software throughout the zoom lens from the automobile market, experienced far more alternatives compared to the original Japanese imports, but in the long term the Japanese emphasis on central worth and reliability trumped each of the stainless spoilers that Detroit had to provide.

Somin transformed into a sexy concept for her debut with K.A.R.D
Somin had a cute concept when she was in April, but now she's looking all grown up with K.A.R.D!
Somin was previously the leader of April, but suddenly withdrew from the group a few months after their debut. April's debut track, "Dream Candy," was a very cute, poppy song with a bright and colorful video.
Now she's back with the co-ed group, K.A.R.D, who debuted this month under DSP Media. K.A.R.D's anticipated debut single "Oh NaNa" is quite a departure from April's innocent image. It'ss more of a club hip-hop track and the music video has a darker theme.

Josh Brolin In Talks To Join Jurassic World
By Sean O'Connell published 18 October 13
He has been a Man In Black. He's about to be an Oldboy for Spike Lee. And if the ducks line up in a row, Josh Brolin might run from – or stalk – digital dinosaurs in Jurassic World, the fourth chapter in the ongoing Jurassic Park franchise.
Variety reports that Brolin is "in early talks" to join the sequel, which will be directed by Safety Not Guaranteed filmmaker Colin Trevorrow. Brolin reportedly would join an ensemble that includes young actors Ty Simpkins (Iron Man 3) and Nick Robinson (The Kings of Summer). Brolin also might act alongside Bryce Dallas Howard, who has been mentioned for the movie in the past – and is included in the Variety article – but has not yet been confirmed for the new sequel.
A few details are starting to surface, confirming what we've floated. While Variety acknowledges that plot details are "unknown" for Trevorrow and co-writer Derek Connolly's script, the trade does report that Simpkins and Robinson will play siblings, leaving us to think that Howard and Brolin (if they land the roles) could play parents in the movie.
Brolin reportedly was looked at for the lead role by Jurassic World producers when they were trying to cast the sequel earlier. Interestingly enough, Brolin also was in the mix for the Batman role in Zack Snyder's untitled Batman-Superman movie, but lost out to Ben Affleck. It's pretty obvious that Brolin is one of those actors major studios are looking to when they want to build up a major franchise.
But why? And I ask this with absolutely no disrespect to Brolin, who I think is a solid actor. His highest-grossing film, Men In Black 3, did so well at the box office primarily because it was an established franchise resting on Will Smith's shoulders. Brolin's an amazing character actor who has contributed to powerful dramatic ensembles in movies like Milk, True Grit and No Country for Old Men. But when studios have tried to turn him into a bankable leading man in movies like Gangster Squad and Jonah Hex, they've opened to tepid numbers like $17 million and $5 million, respectively.
Now, Jurassic World will sell itself on dinosaurs, and hopefully Trevorrow can lure massive summer crowds into theaters by delivering types of carnivorous creatures that we haven't seen in the previous three Jurassic movies. Will people buy a ticket because Brolin's in one of the leads? Possibly. But I'm sure we're all much more concerned with what the story of the sequel will be, so hopefully a few details regarding the plot will start to leak... and soon.

Q: using nstimer in viewcontroller I have a scenario where I need to start/stop a timer on a button click. I may move from the page and come back again but the timer should be running. For this purpose I am stoping and releasing it in viewWillDisappear method and restarting it on the basis of a condition in viewWillAppear. But It is not getting started again. Following is my code:
- (void)viewWillDisappear:(BOOL)animated {
if([timerInterval isValid]) {
    [timerInterval invalidate];
    //[timerInterval release];
    timerInterval = nil;
}

}
- (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated {
HealthyBabyAppDelegate *appDel = (HealthyBabyAppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
self.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:[appDel changeBackground]]];
if(appDel.contractionDutation>0) {
    //if(timerInterval==nil)
    timerInterval = [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:1.0 target:self selector:@selector(printInterval) userInfo:nil repeats:YES];
}

}
-(IBAction)Contraction:(id)sender {
HealthyBabyAppDelegate *appDel = (HealthyBabyAppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
if([(UIButton*)sender tag]==2) {//stop the contrction
    [(UIButton*)sender setTag:1];
    [(UIButton*)sender setTitle:@"Start" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
    [appDel startContractionTimer:FALSE];
    [timerInterval invalidate];
    //timerInterval = nil;
}
else {//start the contraction, 2 means contraction is running
    [(UIButton*)sender setTag:2];
    [(UIButton*)sender setTitle:@"Stop" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
    [appDel startContractionTimer:TRUE];
    ([[tblContractionDetail cellForRowAtIndexPath:[NSIndexPath indexPathForRow:0 inSection:0]] textLabel]).text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"Start Time: %@",appDel.contractionStartTime];
    timerInterval = [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:1.0 target:self selector:@selector(printInterval) userInfo:nil repeats:YES];
}

}
Contraction method will stop/delete the timer.

Thanks
Pankaj

A: NSTimer should not be released. It will release itself by triggering invalidate remove the line timerInterval = nil; and try it again. The other thing I have noticed myself: a timer should always be created by MainThread otherwise it will not start executing.
//EDIT: try this code to start it again:
// inside your function
[self performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector(startUpdate) withObject:nil waitUntilDone:YES];

-(void)startUpdate {
    updateTimer = [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:1.0
                target:self
                selector:@selector(doSomething)
                userInfo:nil
                repeats:YES];
}

Christopher Mims of the WSJ has talked to a few members of Gen Z and is here to define the entire cohort's use of social media for us. As someone whose job requires me to deal with members of that generation every day, and who has for the past decade taught classes on negotiating the online world, I think some of what Mims so confidently asserts is right, but other generalizations are very wrong.
The first of his seven points is: "Gen Z doesn't distinguish between online and IRL." This is, frankly, a ridiculous thing to say, first of all because any universal statement about an entire generation is (as I have often but fruitlessly commented) indefensible. Generational cohorts — even within a given country — are divided in serious ways by social class, by economic condition, by culture, by education. The only people Mims talks to are university students and people who work in, or study, the tech sector. It is, to put it mildly, not safe to assume that those people are representative of an entire generation.
Mims's second point: "Privacy online? LOL." This is true to my experience, though (see above) I can't assume that the young people I know are representative. But for what it's worth, almost all of my students understand, in theory anyway, that anything they post online could come back to haunt them some day. I might add that every term I have students who are not on any social media at all, and when I ask them why, they usually cite privacy concerns as their chief reason for abstaining.
"4. Social media is how they stay informed." Also true, to my long-time frustration — though I am increasingly inclined to think that there's no real difference between getting your news from social media and getting it from, say, the Washington Post, since so many journalists today take their marching orders from Twitter mobs. A small data point: Baylor buys access to the WSJ for everyone with a baylor.edu email address, but I have only ever met one student who has the WSJ app installed on his phone.
"5. Video is important, but it isn't everything." No, video isn't everything, but it's hard to overstate the centrality of visual communication (especially edited still images — Snapchat-style even when made outside Snapchat — and emoji) among most of my students.
Mims also quotes in this context a Pew report claiming that the "Post-Millennial" generation is probably going to be the "best-educated ever," but by "best-educated" Pew means simply having the most years of education. And that is, ahem, not the same thing. But that's a subject for another day.
"6. Gen Z thinks concerns about screens are overblown." Some do, some don't. The really interesting question is this: Even if we could determine what percentage of them are concerned about overdependence on screens, which would be hard, how will those views change over the next decade? When today's college students are 30, will they be more or less dependent on their screens, especially their phones?
"7. But they're still susceptible to tech addiction and burnout." Indeed. Mims quotes a young woman who says, "I definitely think we all know that we're addicted to our phones and social media…. But I also think we've just come to terms with it, and we think, that's just what it is to be a person now." I have seen, often, just this helplessness and defeatism, but I have also encountered many students who are not just aware of their condition but determined to do something about it.


2007 March — Dayna Macy, author of "Ravenous"
My son Matthew is a remarkable boy. He is as wise as he is kind and he has my heart.
He wrote it on a yellow piece of paper, and under the note drew a house with one person handing a gift to another. Some sand and sea were in front of the house.
He and his brother also gave me two dollars each, which I put into an envelope with the note.
I will carry the envelope in my purse and the next time I see Sharon, will give it to her.
I work in San Francisco a couple of days a week for Active Interest Media, which owns Yoga Journal, Vegetarian Times, and other magazines and businesses. For weeks now, I've noticed this sweet old lady sitting on the sidewalk with a cup next to her. She wears a kerchief around her head Queen Elizabeth style. She even wears the queens oversized, pale pink, non-descript glasses. She also has the kindest pale blue eyes.
I usually just give her a dollar for which she always thanks me profusively, but today I decided to stop and speak with her.
I asked her if she 'd like the apple I had in my purse, and she very thanked me. I asked her if I could get her something warm to drink — it was so chilly in the city today. She thanked me but said, "oh no. I ate a bowl of oatmeal this morning at Glide Church and I'm warm and full." She seemed genuinely delighted in my interest. Her eyes were sparkly, and I find this hard to believe but she seemed happy.
I asked her name. She said "Sharon".
I wonder if Sharon has a family. She seems like she's someone's mother. I wonder why she eneded up sitting on a street in SF with a cup in her hand. I wonder what her story is.
Perhaps one day, if I'm feeling brave, I'll ask her.
I always admired John Edwards and thought he would make a formidable opponent and good president. He is expected to announce he is dropping out of the presidential race today, because his wife Elizabeth has suffered a recurrence of breast cancer.
I can't help but think if this were Newt Gingrich running, he would have continued his campaign, and divorced her instead.
I love millet. It's birdseed to many but heaven to me.
It's an old grain, grown as early as 3000 BC in China. Yet despite its noble past, Americans barely know it.
Too bad. Millet is fabulous in baked goods where its poppiness really shows.
Next time you make muffins, throw in 1/4 cup of millet. The crunch is satisfying and delicious.
