Peak of Eternal Light (artefacts)
Peak of Eternal Light: specific points on the polar regions of the Moon bathed in continuous sunlight.
'Peak of Eternal Light' takes us on a hypothetical archaeological journey to the Moon. The project features a monumental temple on the South Pole of the Moon and a series of sacred objects and sculptures, establishing an enigmatic material culture yet to be discovered. Masks, offering vessels and other forms of precious regalia invite us to imagine profound lunar rituals, acknowledging the ancestral spiritual dimension embedded within the cosmos.
When appointed Artist in Residence at the Advanced Concepts Team of the European Space Agency ESA, Jorge Mañes Rubio chose to explore an anthropological approach when addressing the future human presence on the Moon. Instead of seeing it just as a potential site for groundbreaking scientific research, class-privileged tourism or the lucrative exploitation of extraterrestrial natural resources, Mañes Rubio looks at the Moon as sacred ground. Transporting us to this numinous, nearly unspoiled territory, the artist recalls the images and symbols humanity needs to reconnect with a higher purpose.
In 'Peak of Eternal Light' we're lifted to a 'new world' where ancient ways-of-knowing are reimagined, remaining forever indispensable. His mission does not begin by planting a flag or building a permanent colony on the Moon —both symbols of Western colonialism— but by honouring and protecting the ancestral connection we share with our closest celestial neighbour. Challenging the exploitative and colonial patterns taken for granted in space exploration, the artist reflects on how Western knowledge is always perceived as superior over other forms of knowledge, how triumphal and dominant cultures have historically neglected the history of others. In his vision, rockets and spaceships are replaced by sacred buildings, complex rituals and magnificent artefacts carefully crafted with Moon dust and aerospace materials left behind on the surface of the Moon. Openly inspired by our past, these works attempt to recognize the infinity of traditions and wisdom available on Earth, projecting a pluriverse where cultural exchange happens in a relationship of equality.
Mañes Rubio seems to have used his privileged position inside the European Space Agency to purposely displace himself from current plans around the colonisation of celestial bodies —plans driven today by the world's wealthiest, most powerful corporations. Looking at Mañes Rubio's work is disconcerting to say the least. While we're invited to discover evidence that sustain a prosperous human presence on the Moon, these buildings and objects appear to us as relics from a bygone past, implying the inescapable collapse of their source community. Hence the more sustainable, spiritual —perhaps even utopian— narrative the artist has envisioned for our interplanetary future remains in a liminal estate, full of hope and helpless at the same time. It's precisely in this contradiction that his work becomes most valuable, confident, even implacable, tirelessly looking for the traces that make us human regardless of space and time.
"While visionary concepts such as the Moon Village help us to rethink potential futures and our actions to realise them, art allows us to put them into perspective, and recall their human elements. Jorge has made a beautiful bridge between ethnography and space exploration, by imagining future empirical evidence from a 'Moon Village culture'."
Leopold Summerer, head of the Advanced Concepts Team, European Space Agency
"I have no idea if the Moon Temple is utopian or not – not more than if it was utopian, centuries ago to make the Egyptian pyramids, the European Cathedrals, the temples all around the planet or to decide that some mountains and caves were sacred places. Somehow, human spirituality needs large symbols."
Laurent Pambaguian, Structures, Mechanisms and Materials Division at the European Space Agency
Untitled #1 (Vessel)
From the Peak of Eternal Light series, 2017. 20x18x17cm
Mylar, lunar regolith simulant
After decades of isolation, the inhabitants of the Moon Village start developing a certain sense of common identity. They start making intricate objects with a special agency, objects whose function transcends physical interaction. The community used local resources such as moon dust and the iconic golden aerospace materials to create magnificent pieces. With an erratic shape that resembles the lunar surface itself and a precious interior, we can only imagine the purpose of this mysterious lunar artefact. This vase might tell us a story of the supernatural, a tale of immortality.
Untitled #3 (Protection)
From the Peak of Eternal Light series, 2017. 95x36x7cm
Vapour deposited aluminium aerospace film, lunar regolith simulant
This neckpiece, carefully crafted from compressed Moon dust and aerospace materials, is believed to be one of the first objects created by lunar settlers. Due to its large size and weight, it was probably aimed to be worn only during very specific occasions. While its function remains unclear, the piece was definitely created to fulfil sacred and spiritual needs. The object was passed on through different generations of Moon Village inhabitants, and it was believed that it could help restore cosmic balance or provide protection to whoever wore it.
Untitled #6 (Afterlife)
Masks have played an important role in many ancient civilisations from planet Earth. They were worn by shamans, rulers, dancers or important personalities, in many cases even accompanying them to the grave. Most were worn for important celebrations, burial rituals and transformation rites, where the mask would confer mystical powers or serve as a gateway to a parallel dimension. Burial masks were commonly used among Moon Village inhabitants to honour the deceased and secure the departing spirits with a safe passage to the afterlife. Masks were carefully crafted in moon dust featuring the faces of the deceased and covered with golden aerospace materials to protect them on their next journey.
Untitled #8 (Courage)
Mylar, brass, lunar regolith simulant
This female mask reveals some of the most intricate decorative arts that flourished during the first civilisations on the Moon. The absence of gold deposits on the lunar surface turned into another great opportunity for the Moon Village inhabitants to show their immense creativity. Aerospace materials coming from abandoned cargo landers are reused by lunar goldsmiths to create new pieces. Some of these precious artefacts —such as the nose and ear ornaments in this example— certainly reminisce of pre-Columbian cultures, speaking of a sacred human fascination for gold. This particular mask was created to honour the courage of a woman who located cold traps inside the perpetual darkness of the lunar craters. Water ice collected inside these traps can be transformed into drinking water, oxygen and rocket fuel, turning it into the most valuable lunar resource. Only a few humans on the Moon developed a certain intuition that help them locating cold traps in situations where scientific instrumentation is of little use. This mask and its ornaments —symbolically featuring water drops— celebrate this woman's generosity, depicting her with her eyes closed and mouth open in an expression of ecstasy.
Untitled #12 (Dance)
From the Peak of Eternal Light series, 2018. 125x60x5cm
Ceremonial regalia was worn or carried during rituals and other performances to establish a deeper connection with higher spiritual powers that are still active on the Moon. This large sculpture is in fact a dance wand to be used only during celebratory sacred dances. Its substantial weight would render it useless under terrestrial gravitational conditions, but on the Moon men and women used these precious artifacts to influence the wholeness of the community, strengthen their belief systems or perform healing and divination ceremonies. This particular piece features 13 solar feathers and the figure of a space ancestor adorned with embedded brass bolts.
Untitled #9 (Loyalty)
From the Peak of Eternal Light series, 2018. 113x54x10cm
Vapour deposited aluminium aerospace film, lunar regolith simulant, brass
This massive pectoral appears to be an armour used in combat but is in fact a symbol of power and distinction reserved only for a capable lunar shaman. It reveals some of the anthropological complexities from the first civilisation on the Moon. In a world dominated by extremely harsh life conditions, humans turned to the vastness of the universe and their own spiritual realm as a mechanism to transcend the absence of life on the Moon. In an existence dominated by rigorous technological dependence and artificial nature, a new coming of shamanic practices fostered a greater connection to the cosmos and a deeper appreciation of the essential human dimension. Lunar inhabitants considerably expanded their knowledge of the universe, but at the same time acquired a greater understanding of the ethical challenges inherent in the conquest of celestial bodies. Only a handful of individuals that showed an ability to serve as a bridge between humans and the cosmic gods were endorsed with the responsibility of conducting important rituals. Their loyalty to the wellbeing of the community and their spiritual vocation was unquestionable.
Untitled #7 (Trade)
Dependence from planet Earth —except energy easily harvested from the sun— was a norm during the first decades of existence of the lunar settlement. Moon Village inhabitants worked hard to achieve certain self-sufficiency in terms of food, oxygen and water supplies, but they still relied on cargo being dropped every week from the terrestrial landers. The lack of material goods on the Moon didn't stop locals to start trading. Instead it created a completely new submerged lunar economy where goods were replaced by human skills. Lunar citizens would offer their talents, ranging from a particular technical knowledge to storytelling, dancing, or spiritual healing in exchange for a similar future return. Commerce was based on trust, and these mysterious objects were exchanged as a symbolic currency to represent this trust between families and clans.
Untitled #2 Yellow Gold (Reflection) & Untitled #2 Copper Gold (Reflection)
From the Peak of Eternal Light series, 2017. 120x90cm
Vapour deposited aluminium aerospace film on canvas
Several layers of aerospace film are stretched and placed over what appears to be an irregular surface or canvas. The result is a bursting and glowing surface, reminiscing of a powerful solar eruption. This phenomenon, usually accompanied by coronal mass ejections, occasionally results on spectacular auroras on planet Earth. On the Moon though, devoid of atmosphere and magnetic field to deflect radiation, these storms might not be fatal but have certainly been feared since the first human settlements. We can assume that this piece served as a visual reminder to the Moon Village inhabitants of these beautiful yet devastating solar events.
Untitled #10 (Memory)
From the Peak of Eternal Light series, 2018. 165x200cm
Wool & Acrylic blend
This large blanket was found on the Moon, although it was most probably woven on Earth by the family of an early human lunar settler. During the early stages of the Moon Village program, astronauts were sent to the south pole of the Moon for long periods of time. The adaptation to microgravity and the harsh lunar conditions were always a struggle for the first inhabitants, prone to feeling homesick and lonely a few months after their arrival. Contact with other fellow astronauts was sometimes rare since many of them were sent together with their robotic partners on a mission to map the nearby dark craters in search for vital water ice. Families of the astronauts probably started weaving these blankets before a relative would depart, hoping that they would warm and comfort the astronauts on their journey. Their colourful design incorporated both elements from their life back on Earth and their future assignment on the Moon. This particular piece depicts an astronaut's favourite musical instrument, a golden crown from Indonesian origins and the United Nations emblem among some other symbols.
Untitled #4 (Solitude)
Vapour deposited aluminium aerospace film and lunar regolith simulant
Shaped in what seems to be a shield with strong ethnographic influences, this object is used in complex dances and rituals among the Moon Village inhabitants. Living in a tough environment where human contact is scarce, solitude is the most common enemy among the lunar citizens. Therefore this and other similar objects are used in celebrations, where people can acquire a majestic presence, gathering, dancing, and breaking free from their monotonous and harsh daily activities.

Untitled #11 (Mediators)
From the Peak of Eternal Light series, 2018. 160x237cm, 160x250cm
These pieces are heavily inspired by the teachings of Korean shamans; folding and cutting pieces frequently used during sacred rituals. Described by a shaman as 'chairs for the gods', these are mediators between humans and higher spiritual powers that are still active in our world.

Moon Rays. From the Peak of Eternal Light series, 2019.
Video installation. Dimensions and length variable
In 1977 two Voyager spacecrafts were launched, each carrying a 12-inch gold-plated record containing sounds of life and culture on Earth. This selection was made by Carl Sagan and a handful of his collaborators at NASA.
"Moon Rays" is a video installation that features hours of original 16mm footage from NASA's Apollo Moon missions paired with the artist's own record collection of Detroit Techno, spanning almost four decades of music. Astronauts have been removed from the footage, and the film is edited as a non-return, one-way trip from Earth to the Moon.
The title "Moon Rays" references a track released by Detroit's music collective Underground Resistance, a "movement for sonic revolution". Techno music was created in the early 80's by young musicians who, inspired by Detroit's rich musical legacy and technological base, created new futuristic sounds, breathing new emotions into machines. This music often speaks about distant worlds and has been defined as "High Tech Soul".
The record collection is exhibited and activated as a site-specific, ever-changing soundscape, unlocking new meanings in humanity's greatest journey. The installation aims to reflect on the importance of personal cultural archives and forms of knowledge, shining light on the problematic issues regarding the selection and preservation of cultural heritage, especially now when massive archives are currently being sent out of our planet, risking a generic representation of humanity.

Peak of Eternal Light has been created by Jorge Mañes Rubio as artist in residence at the Advanced Concepts Team of the European Space Agency ESA.

A Visit to Bosnia, with Zeynab Gamieldien
By Sana Gillani on Dec 26, 2016 in Blog, Featured |
For almost as long as I've known Zeynab, I have witnessed her fascination with different cultures and their histories. Two in particular have always been Russian and the Balkan legacies. When Zeynab first told me she would have the opportunity to visit Bosnia, I was so excited for her. All the books, travelogues and documentaries she had consumed about this great land, would come to life in a highly perceptive set of eyes. I interviewed Zeynab about her trip, and here is what she had to share...
What inspired you to travel to Bosnia?
I've always been fascinated by the Balkans - its history, culture and traditions. It has been influenced by its time under the Ottoman Empire, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and more recently, its time as part of socialist Yugoslavia and the bloody aftermath of the war. I wanted to see how those influences would come together and how people were coming to terms with the legacy of the war, which is still very much a visible part of the landscape. When I travel, I like to go to places where I can interact with and see Islamic history and culture, so for me Bosnia was also appealing for that reason.
What did you do to prepare for your trip?
I did a lot of reading, as Bosnia isn't a massive tourist hub. I read forums on TripAdvisor, searched for Instagram accounts on Bosnia and read blogs and books written by people of Bosnian background. I also knew that I wanted to go to places outside of the capital, so I looked up and booked a day tour to several cities and towns.
Did you use any guided tours and if so, would you recommend this tour operator?
I did a day tour with Superb Adventures, a tour company run by a local named Faruk Osmanovic. I highly recommend the tour, as Faruk was very knowledgeable and had so many interesting insights as someone who grew up during the siege of Sarajevo. We went to see many interesting landmarks and he answered my many questions about Bosnian culture and history.
What were the main features of your itinerary?
We mainly stayed in Sarajevo, which is a very walkable city, marked by graves along its sloping hills, from which Serbian forces besieged the city. We were staying very close to the Old Town, Bascarsija, which we spent a lot of time in. We also visited several of the city's ancient mosques and fortresses, and also did a day trip where we visited Mostar, the Pocitelj fortress, Kravice waterfalls, and several other points of interest.
What did you enjoy most about your travels?
Bosnia has some amazing natural scenery - driving around the countryside was spectacular. Sarajevo is a very beautiful and resilient city and has some distinct Ottoman features such as fountains on many street corners (The water in Sarajevo tastes amazing, just as an aside.). I loved just strolling through the streets and taking in the amazing views and trying the local delicacies. At the same time, you do notice remnants of the war everywhere, which is a sobering reminder of the sufferings of the people in this region and their resilience and courage. One thing I did really like is that there weren't many international chains and there weren't huge hordes of tourists either.
Can you tell us about some of the sights of significance to Islamic history that you visited?
Gazi Husrev-Beg is an important figure in the history of Sarajevo, as a patron and founder of the city's Islamic sites. The large Gazi Husrev-Beg mosque bears his name and is absolutely stunning, with a unique water fountain inscribed with many different styles of Arabic calligraphy. Attached to the mosque is the Gazi Husrev-Beg madrassah, which details the Islamic teaching traditions passed on from generation to generation. Outside the madrassah is a wall dedicated to scholars who lost their lives in the war, which was very touching.
Another amazing Islamic site we visited was the Sufi dervish house at Blagaj, which dates back to the 16th century. The house is set against a magnificent cliff face with fresh spring water, which you can scoop up and drink.
In light of the tragedy of war and genocide experienced by the Bosnian people, what were your observations of Bosnia today?
Bosnia is still coming to terms with the impact of the war. Its buildings are marked with physical damage and when you speak to locals, they have confronting and sad stories to tell. No family was left untouched by suffering, even down to its youngest members. Corruption is rife and the unemployment rate is extremely high at present, but nevertheless I found that people had a very matter-of-fact and practical outlook on most things, as well as a rather black sense of humour!
Do you have any recommendations on do's, do not's, must see's or must eat's when in Bosnia?
In Sarajevo, Svrzo House is a must see. It's a beautifully preserved house of a wealthy family from the Ottoman period and is quiet and off the beaten tourist track, with serene gardens and unique Islamic-inspired architecture. The Gallery 11/07/95 in Sarajevo is a chilling reminder of the genocide of the Bosnian people in Srebrenica and is an important reminder of the atrocities.
Outside of Sarajevo, Blagaj is absolutely stunning, with its fresh spring water and Sufi dervish house, and Mostar, while touristy, is a must-see, if only for the iconic Stari Most bridge.
Food in Bosnia is cheap and plentiful, if not particularly varied. You must try the local speciality, cevapi, which is a type of skinless sausage in bread, but my favourite was burek, flaky pastry stuffed with a variety of fillings such as potato and spinach. The dessert tufahije, stuffed, sweetened apples, is also worth a try.

Q: Merge two different rows into single row in SQL with different pattern I am trying to merge several records of same type into single row in SQL. Here is my sample data. I had also tried using COALESCE(Name + ',', '') AS Names, by merging them together and split them again in a common table. But, this is kind of merging row two records and doing an pivot on top of it.
Any inputs on this would be helpful. Thanks !
Type| Name  | Department | Value1 |  Value 2 | Value 3
-----------------------------------------------------
1  | John  |  A         |  100   |  NULL    |  NULL
1  | John  |  B         |   NULL |  200     |  NULL
1  | John  |  C         |  NULL  |  NULL    |  300
2  | Kay   |  A         |  400   |  NULL    |  NULL
2  | Kay   |  B         |  NULL  |  500     |  NULL
3  | Lor   |  B         |  NULL  |  600     |  NULL

Edited: Apologies for not properly articulating my original problem. Updated below again.
Here is the transformation output looking after the query. Given departments can be many and they are transformed to only 3 columns in the output based on Dept Type.

ID | Name  | Department1 | Department 2| Department 3 | Value1 |  Value 2 | Value 3
-----------------------------------------------------
1  | John  |  A         |          B   |      C       |  100   |  200    |  300
2  | Kay   |  A         |          B   |      NULL    |  400   |  500    |  NULL
3  | Lor   |  NULL      |          B   |       NULL   |  NULL  |  600    |  NULL

I was trying with below query, but i am not able to transform department values into column values.

SELECT
   ID,
   MAX(Value1) AS Value1,
   MAX(Value2) AS Value2,
   MAX(Value3) AS Value3
FROM Employee
GROUP BY Name ```>

A: You could do that as:
SELECT
   ID,
   Name,
   Max(case when department = 'A' then 'A' end) as Department1,
   Max(case when department = 'B' then 'B' end) as Department2,
   Max(case when department = 'C' then 'C' end) as Department3,
   MAX(Value1) AS Value1,
   MAX(Value2) AS Value2,
   MAX(Value3) AS Value3
FROM Employee
GROUP BY Id, Name;

Thinking it is just for some kind of pivot like display.
UPDATE: I am not really sure if you meant as in your sample though (would be nice if your question is clear):
WITH
  x AS (
         SELECT
              Name, Department, DENSE_RANK() OVER (PARTITION BY Name ORDER BY Department) AS dept
         FROM Employee
       )
SELECT
         t.Type                                        AS ID
       , t.Name
       , MAX(CASE WHEN x.dept=1 THEN x.Department END) AS Department1
       , MAX(CASE WHEN x.dept=2 THEN x.Department END) AS Department2
       , MAX(CASE WHEN x.dept=3 THEN x.Department END) AS Department3
       , MAX(Value1)                                   AS Value1
       , MAX(Value2)                                   AS Value2
       , MAX(Value3)                                   AS Value3
FROM     Employee t
         INNER JOIN x ON x.Name=t.Name
GROUP BY t.Type, t.Name
ORDER BY t.Name;

Guadalupe González-Hontoria y Allende-Salazar (Madrid, 25 de enero de 1921 - ibíd. 26 de octubre de 2014) fue una investigadora etnóloga española miembro de la Real Academia de la Historia (2002). Creó el Museo de Artes y Tradiciones Populares de Madrid, fue directora de la revista de etnografía Narria y recibió el premio "Henry Ford" a la Conservación del Patrimonio,  (1997) Tarea y resultados que, según sus propias palabras, abordó "con el convencimiento de que los utensilios, además de su función primera, son obras de arte".

Biografía

González-Hontoria se doctoró en Historia en la Universidad Complutense de Madrid. Ya desde muy joven, y en circunstancias muy parecidas a las protagonizadas por otra ilustre colega en la investigación etnográfica, la también historiadora Natacha Seseña, recorrió en la década de 1970 los pueblos más remotos de España en su Renault 4x4. La importante colección de piezas reunidas fueron luego cedidas a la UAM (Universidad Autónoma de Madrid). El conjunto de objetos, además de valiosos ejemplares del XVIII, está datado entre mediados del siglo XIX y mediados del XX, y una coda de elementos más recientes.

En 2002 fue recibida como Académica Correspondiente de la Real Academia de la Historia.

El Museo de Artes y Tradiciones Populares
Este museo, que puede considerarse su legado patrimonial más importante, fue inaugurado en 1975 en la Facultad de Filosofía y Letras de la Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, con cerca de tres mil piezas donadas por Guadalupe (tesoro que llegaría a doblar con nuevas donaciones). En 2011, el Museo se trasladó a la calle de Carlos Arniches, en las inmediaciones del Rastro de Madrid, compartiendo espacios con el Centro Cultural La Corrala, dependiente también de la Universidad Autónoma de Madrid. La colección del Museo de Artes y Tradiciones Populares reúne más de 8.000 piezas de toda España (desde instrumentos musicales y artesanía hasta vestidos o aperos de labranza) de evidente valor etnográfico y antropológico.

ABC Classic FM is a station that is the primary classical station operated by the Australian broadcasting Corporation. The station plays primarily classical music and live concerts from the area. The main slogan of ABC classic FM is "Where music lives".
The history of ABC classic FM get started first in the year 1976 in which ABC FM was once called ABC fine music. The entire station was inspired by the BBC radio three, a channel that had extensive success in the UK. Classic FM studios were first established in Collins would in Adelaide South Australia and the program infrastructure has since moved to Sydney for a larger audience. There is now a sister station ABC classic 2 that can extend the range of this company and its programming.
Listening to this station can be done through DAB, Internet radio and through the FM band which varies by state. In Adelaide the frequency is 103.9 FM, In Canberra its 102.3 fm in Perth its 97.7fm and in Sydney it's 92.9 FM. For a full listing and frequency guide the website offers a listing number.
Some of the main shows and personalities are the weekday afternoons program, classic breakfasts, mornings program and the classic drive program. The main hosts include Philip Sametz, Martin Buzacott, Mairi Nicolson, Alice Keath and Graham Abbott to name a few.
On the website listeners can find a fairly clean interface to discover Australian music, to discover the appropriate station frequency for each area across Australia and to find live streams of the programming. The station site also features biographies on every one of the radio hosts.
Connecting with the station can be done on the site, through their Instagram account, on facebook and through youtube. The Australian broadcasting Corporation I view app and the shop are also great places to connect with the program managers and the creators or programming.

.. index:: exceptions, remote traceback

********************************
Exceptions and remote tracebacks
********************************

There is an example that shows various ways to deal with exceptions when writing Pyro code.
Have a look at the ``exceptions`` example in the :file:`examples` directory.

Pyro exceptions
---------------

Pyro's exception classes can be found in :mod:`Pyro5.errors`.
They are used by Pyro itself if something went wrong inside Pyro itself or related to something Pyro was doing.
All errors are of type ``PyroError`` or a subclass thereof.

.. index:: remote errors

Remote exceptions
-----------------
More interesting are how Pyro treats exeptions that occur in *your own* objects (the remote Pyro objects):
it is making the remote objects appear as normal, local, Python objects.
That also means that if they raise an error, Pyro will make it appear in the caller (client progam),
as if the error occurred locally at the point of the call.

Assume you have a remote object that can divide arbitrary numbers.
It will raise a ``ZeroDivisionError`` when using 0 as the divisor.
This can be dealt with by just catching the exception as if you were writing regular code::

    import Pyro5.api

    divider=Pyro5.api.Proxy( ... )
    try:
        result = divider.div(999,0)
    except ZeroDivisionError:
        print("yup, it crashed")

Since the error occurred in a *remote* object, and Pyro itself raises it again on the client
side, some information is initially lost: the actual traceback of the crash itself in the server code.
Pyro stores the traceback information on a special attribute on the exception
object (``_pyroTraceback``), as a list of strings (each is a line from
the traceback text, including newlines). You can use this data on the client to print or process the
traceback text from the exception as it occurred in the Pyro object on the server.

There is a utility function in :mod:`Pyro5.errors` to make it easy to deal with this:
:func:`Pyro5.errors.get_pyro_traceback`

You use it like this::

    import Pyro5.errors
    try:
        result = proxy.method()
    except Exception:
        print("Pyro traceback:")
        print("".join(Pyro5.errors.get_pyro_traceback()))

.. index:: exception hook

Also, there is another function that you can install in ``sys.excepthook``, if you want Python
to automatically print the complete Pyro traceback including the remote traceback, if any:
:func:`Pyro5.errors.excepthook`

A full Pyro exception traceback, including the remote traceback on the server, looks something like this::

    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "client.py", line 54, in <module>
        print(test.complexerror())  # due to the excepthook, the exception will show the pyro error
      File "/home/irmen/Projects/pyro5/Pyro5/client.py", line 476, in __call__
        return self.__send(self.__name, args, kwargs)
      File "/home/irmen/Projects/pyro5/Pyro5/client.py", line 243, in _pyroInvoke
        raise data  # if you see this in your traceback, you should probably inspect the remote traceback as well
    TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for //: 'str' and 'int'
     +--- This exception occured remotely (Pyro) - Remote traceback:
     | Traceback (most recent call last):
     |   File "/home/irmen/Projects/pyro5/Pyro5/server.py", line 466, in handleRequest
     |     data = method(*vargs, **kwargs)  # this is the actual method call to the Pyro object
     |   File "/home/irmen/Projects/pyro5/examples/exceptions/excep.py", line 24, in complexerror
     |     x.crash()
     |   File "/home/irmen/Projects/pyro5/examples/exceptions/excep.py", line 32, in crash
     |     self.crash2('going down...')
     |   File "/home/irmen/Projects/pyro5/examples/exceptions/excep.py", line 36, in crash2
     |     x = arg // 2
     | TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for //: 'str' and 'int'
     +--- End of remote traceback

As you can see, the first part is only the exception as it occurs locally on the client (raised
by Pyro). The indented part marked with 'Remote traceback' is the exception as it occurred
in the remote Pyro object.

.. index:: traceback information

Detailed traceback information
------------------------------

There is another utility that Pyro has to make it easier to debug remote object exceptions.
If you enable the ``DETAILED_TRACEBACK`` config item on the server (see :ref:`config-items`), the remote
traceback is extended with details of the values of the local variables in every frame::

     +--- This exception occured remotely (Pyro) - Remote traceback:
     | ----------------------------------------------------
     |  EXCEPTION <class 'TypeError'>: unsupported operand type(s) for //: 'str' and 'int'
     |  Extended stacktrace follows (most recent call last)
     | ----------------------------------------------------
     | File "/home/irmen/Projects/pyro5/Pyro5/server.py", line 466, in Daemon.handleRequest
     | Source code:
     |     data = method(*vargs, **kwargs)  # this is the actual method call to the Pyro object
     | ----------------------------------------------------
     | File "/home/irmen/Projects/pyro5/examples/exceptions/excep.py", line 24, in TestClass.complexerror
     | Source code:
     |     x.crash()
     | Local values:
     |     self = <excep.TestClass object at 0x7f8dec533b20>
     |     x = <excep.Foo object at 0x7f8dec550f40>
     | ----------------------------------------------------
     | File "/home/irmen/Projects/pyro5/examples/exceptions/excep.py", line 32, in Foo.crash
     | Source code:
     |     self.crash2('going down...')
     | Local values:
     |     self = <excep.Foo object at 0x7f8dec550f40>
     | ----------------------------------------------------
     | File "/home/irmen/Projects/pyro5/examples/exceptions/excep.py", line 36, in Foo.crash2
     | Source code:
     |     x = arg // 2
     | Local values:
     |     arg = 'going down...'
     |     self = <excep.Foo object at 0x7f8dec550f40>
     | ----------------------------------------------------
     |  EXCEPTION <class 'TypeError'>: unsupported operand type(s) for //: 'str' and 'int'
     | ----------------------------------------------------
     +--- End of remote traceback

You can immediately see why the call produced a ``TypeError`` without the need to have a debugger running
(the ``arg`` variable is a string and dividing that string by 2 is the cause of the error).

Digital Beat
An Action Plan for America | Using Technology and Innovation to Address our Nation's Critical Challenges
by Jonathan Rintels
Reaching For The American Dream By Connecting Our Nation
Persuasive research indicates that connecting our nation to broadband will bring remarkable economic, social, cultural, personal, and other benefits to our citizens.
Our New Sputnik Moment
A National Broadband Strategy
While stimulating broadband supply is necessary to achieving the goal of universal, affordable, and robust broadband, it is not sufficient. The NBS must also promote initiatives to stimulate broadband demand. These include programs to ensure that all Americans have access to the digital skills and tools necessary to realize broadband's enormous potential benefits. They also include initiatives that employ broadband-powered applications to address critical challenges facing our nation, including economic growth, job creation, health care, education, public safety, energy consumption, climate change, and others.
By promoting both the supply of and the demand for broadband, a well-conceived NBS will establish a "virtuous circle" in which an increased supply of robust and affordable broadband stimulates creation of applications that produce wide-ranging, valuable social benefits that then cause citizens to demand even more robust and affordable broadband; which in turn stimulates greater investment in more robust broadband; which then stimulates the creation of even more beneficial applications that cause citizens to demand even more robust and affordable broadband.
In this section, we recommend several initiatives to address our nation's critical challenges that will have the added salutary benefit of stimulating demand for universal, affordable, and robust broadband.
Economic Development And Job Creation
Universal deployment and adoption of robust and affordable broadband will stimulate economic growth and create good-paying jobs, according to several private and government studies.
Deployment of Universal, Robust, Affordable Broadband Will Generate Billions in Economic Development and Create Over a Million New Jobs
A National Broadband Strategy Will Spur Economic Development and Job Creation
Telecommunications technology such as broadband offers a tremendous opportunity to make America healthier and allow Americans to live longer...
We must educate new generations of digitally literate citizens to ensure they are able to compete successfully in today's global workforce and participate in our increasingly knowledge-based society.
Infuse Broadband and Technology Throughout America's Education System
Promote Online Learning
Teach Digital Excellence to All Students
By implementing a National Broadband Strategy that includes initiatives to help Americans utilize broadband to reduce energy consumption and carbon dioxide gas emissions, the new Administration can quickly and meaningfully address the threats that energy insecurity and environmental degradation pose to our nation.
Universal, Affordable, and robust Broadband Will Reduce Energy Consumption and Benefit Our Environment
Telework - Saving Time, Money, and the Environment
Smart Electrical Grid - A Broadband-Enabled, Money-Saving Collaboration.
Public Safety and Homeland Security
One of the highest duties of any nation's government is assuring the public's safety and security. One vital element in providing that safety and security is a strong and resilient communications system.
America Needs Modern Telecommunications and Information Technology to Improve Public Safety and Protect Homeland Security
Strong Federal Leadership is Necessary to Implement a National Broadband Strategy that Will Enhance Public Safety and Protect Homeland Security
Reinvigorating Democracy and Government
The ability of citizens to use YouTube, and to meaningfully engage in community affairs over the Internet, is entirely dependent on their ability to access the Internet via broadband.
Efficient, Transparent Government Connected to its Citizens
Appendix A: A Broadband Action Plan
Appendix B: Draft Executive Order on President's Council On Broadband, Innovation And Competitiveness
I am in sync with this
Permalink Submitted by BroadbandGlobet... (not verified) on Thu, 04/30/2009 - 15:26
I am in sync with this article but there is a missing component, the Innovative, new technology component. I looked at a lot of the RFI inputs and saw one from a company called TelePulse Technologies. They give action plans for the rural and underserved to get them up to 20Mbps and beyond without capital expenditure using their patented DTMD technology. They raise the bar for all Americans no matter where they live. This stuff is probably pretty early stage but it looks like something we should be backing because the phone companies never will and private funding won't go for just solving a rural problem (the market size is not juicy enough). If I read the RFI response correctly the price tag could be less than 10% of what it would cost with DSL. Face it, rural customers have been lied to or ignored or told they need to be happy with some convoluted solution that gets them less than 500kbps on a good day. Let us be brave enough to attack the technology side of the problem since the major players do not seem to think it is worth their real attention.

Never Succeed Alone: A Conversation with Openbox on Design, Diversity, and Empathy
By Chelsea Power
Associate Director - I'm a recruiter for world-class strategists and researchers.
Openbox is built on the fundamentals of human-centered design and it focuses on designing for better urban living. Through rigorous design research, Openbox takes an equitable approach to development, giving communities an active voice in projects to build urban ecosystems that are sustainable, resilient, and prosperous.
Amy Wang, Creative Director + Managing Partner (Left) and Marquise Stillwell, Founder + Principal (Right)
Bamboo Crowd came together with Marquise and Amy to talk about the Openbox studio, the design industry's struggle with diversity, and what lies ahead.
We spoke about how companies need to move away from the traditional model of emphasizing the time and moment of when something should happen toward understanding and considering when a team member truly becomes a partner or a co-founder.
"I understood the moment when it made sense for Amy to become Managing Partner and have greater equity in the firm. Amy's lived experience is vital to the organization," Marquise said. "The moment happened naturally because the intention was there." And it's not enough these days to just wait for that organic moment to happen, Marquise and Amy explained.
Rather, design studios must continually be thinking about the changes that need to happen at all levels to make sure that women, people of color, and minorities can move to positions of power and influence.
It's not something Marquise, Amy, or Openbox can necessarily teach others—but, this "empathy muscle" can be encouraged and worked out. "This country and capitalism is emphatically out of shape and not always ready to take on the responsibility of the good intentions we speak to. It comes through your family and your life and your stories," Marquise said.
"I remember having a conversation about who you were as a person," Marquise says to Amy.
"When you do enough of this work in any field, but particularly in design, you run into a ceiling—the ceiling that many women and people of color run into," Amy said.
"It's about having leadership that can actually see the person. If there's one key thing to emphasize, it's that you don't just go out and find a box to check, you find a person that helps to check that box for you. It comes back to building your empathetic muscle," Marquise said.
Marquise and Amy describe Openbox as a place where people show up as who they are, with their own passions, beliefs, and lived experiences. It sounds (and is) beautiful.
Showing Up as Who You Are
2020 saw millions of people worldwide engage with the Black Lives Matter movement. But the design and innovation industry is one that struggles with diversity, especially at the leadership level, and studios fail to find talent that truly mirror the communities they serve—the Design Census 2019 finds that Black men and women make up 3% of the design industry and Asian-Americans make up 9%.
Marquise sees the systemic challenge as two-pronged. One issue is education. "We can't think about the industry without thinking about the pathway," Marquise said. This path includes how design schools and universities recruit and work with students but also pedagogy and the historical understanding of design.
"We need to recognize that not everyone needs to go through design school practice to end up in this place. It requires an interdisciplinary point of view and learning," he said.
Amy came to design "later in life" she explains, after starting in the sciences (her bio mentions that she once upon a time researched intestinal parasites). Amy thought she would have been happy to land a job at a traditional agency, designing and producing things. "But as I did more, I realized that it really mattered who the people were that we were designing for. That's not often thought through in the traditional design practice," she said.
As Marquise sees it, the other challenge facing the industry is to create better conditions that allow for people of different backgrounds, gender, and race to feel welcomed and have a place in the studio. "The challenge at many studios is that people are asked to take on and assimilate into a way of thinking that is not their own, and leave behind their cultural relevance, until they're asked to bring this off the shelf," Marquise said.
In a particularly cringe-worthy example, Amy shares a story of a former employer who wanted a Spanish speaker to help land a big client. "I was asked not to attend the whole meeting but a part of it. I popped in and said hello, and they asked me to say it again in Spanish. And that was it. That was the contribution," Amy said.
"Because the industry is so homogenous, there is an expectation of what a contribution looks like, what value looks like, what leadership looks like. Certainly, the people I worked with valued the things I contributed, but they didn't give it the value that would lead to leadership and recognition," Amy said. "Often, the times I was valued for being different, I was tokenized."
"When you've never created conditions to welcome this in the first place, having people of color and women in a leadership role is one of the first steps to provide permission and encouragement for individuals to be able to show up with who they are and how they live their life," Marquise said.
A weak empathy muscle is not the only challenge for studios. Over the last year, Amy has witnessed more companies speaking about equity and diversity. "While it's great that there is interest, it's interesting to see how much of a challenge it is to really uphold the statements they put out. There's intention but it takes hard work," Amy said. This hard work will undoubtedly require empathy, dedication, vision, time, money, resources, and effort.
And then, of course, there's the work itself.
"We're a design firm. The work we do is rigorous, intentional, beautiful, people-centered. I do believe design when done well with people who represent the work, is design. Though I support those doing this for justice, I want to make sure it's done in a matter that still speaks to what dsign is supposed to be," Marquise said.
He explains that a studio's truth emerges not just from a click search on their site, but the actual work they produce. "I hold that there are other firms that will be born out of this moment that are more reflective of the community. Our diversity is not the only selling point—I want our work to be the differentiator," he said.
The truth of Openbox lies not just in Marquise, Amy, and the team but also in the studio's core design thinking practice, which incorporates both qualitative and quantitative approaches to solve the small, medium, and large problems.
A good example is a project with the San Francisco Planning Department. The department collaborated with Openbox and Stae, a partner in civic data management. Over the course of a month, they combined qualitative research with quantitative data analysis to gain a deeper understanding of the impact of parklets on San Francisco's residents and businesses, and published the results in an online, interactive format designed to inform and inspire the public.
"A lot of companies focus on the what," Marquise said. "We can add fidelity to the what with our qualitative research, to make sense of the why." Openbox excels at understanding why people come together, live in cities, and gather. It channels the powerful inputs of residents, cities, designers, and businesses to secure better urban living for all.
"Commerce has changed, particularly after COVID. So, now, what does it mean to live in a marketplace, what does a built environment look like both because of the digital experience and the changing of neighborhoods? We help provide that why for clients," Marquise said.
We're a design firm. The work we do is rigorous, intentional, beautiful, people-centered. I do believe design when done well with people who represent the work, is design.
Marquise Stillwell, Founder and Principal
Adaptations and a New Home
As with so many design studios, last year was a challenging one. In March 2020, the team made a last-minute decision (like an hour-before-the-train-departed-last-minute) not to travel to a public library project site to install massive 8-foot prototypes. But the move was smart: DC declared a state of emergency later that day.
"What motivates the team is wanting to respect ourselves and others. We want to keep everyone safe, including the people who we do research with," Amy said. Last year also ushered in adaptations that continue today at Openbox. For those involved with research, for example, the studio immediately thought of ways it could build value into these now-virtual research interviews in addition to compensation.
Another welcome change is the studio's move in 2020 from a traditional office on 24th Street in Manhattan to a space in Red Hook, Brooklyn that is uniquely situated for gathering, playing, and prototyping.
Openbox sees the new space in three key lights. First is its location on the water. "We're thinking a lot about coastal cities, the environment, rising sea levels, and managed retreat," Marquise said. So where the team will eventually gather is a real and tangible connection to the work it aims to do.
Second is all about what it means to really embed within a community. "Red Hook has the highest density of public housing in the country. There's a stark difference between the housing, the neighborhood, and the industrial area," Marquise said. "There's a conflict and a confluence of these things coming together here."
Third is the space itself. "Many will rethink what it means to have people in a desk every day in an office," Marquise said. "We've reimagined what it means to be in a community. We want to rebuild a community coffee shop in the front of the studio to host events and really activate the space."
On the practice side, our designers are excited to push our methods to add value to our interactions, for the outcome of the design and for the benefit of the communities we work with.
Amy Wang, Managing Partner
What's ahead for Openbox?
There's much for Openbox to look forward to, in addition to the new Red Hook space.
"On the practice side, our designers are excited to push our methods to add value to our interactions, for the outcome of the design and for the benefit of the communities we work with." Amy said. "There's not an end point to this, in one week or year or decade."
"I'm excited about how we come together post-COVID," Marquise said. "I'm interested in seeing how we're adapting to this new way of living and how we see ourselves and our neighbors. I also know there will be a moment of global healing and I hope design can help to usher this in through the work we're doing," Marquise said.
"Neighborhoods are changing faster than technology. People are feeling this. The anger and frustration is because people feel they can't afford to live where they want to live. They can't afford to send their kids to school," Marquise said. "We come in to help understand how people feel, how they want to live, work, and play together and we provide insights for those who are empowered to make better choices about how we all live in this world."
And that, to us, is a great definition of design.

In this youtube video I compare the cryptocurrencies monero XMR and Dash in a head to head comparison chart of their surface features that the average investor and user would consider first when choosing which currency to use. My personal favorite above bitcoin, ethereum, litecoin, ripple, monero, and maidsafe is DASH for many reasons that I have discussed in other videos. I think monero's only chance at survival is the fact that it seems to be the least susceptible to regulation and slander by the media.

Colorado busing migrants to New York and Chicago as Denver looks for more shelter space
KUNC | By Scott Franz
Kevin J Beaty
A small busload of people arrive at an emergency shelter for migrants from the southern U.S. border set up at a Denver recreation center on Dec. 13, 2022.
Colorado is launching new initiatives to house and transport hundreds of migrants that are continuing to arrive in Denver.
The state this week started paying to charter buses to take migrants to New York and Chicago.
Micki Trost, a spokesperson for Colorado's office of emergency management, said Thursday the departures are happening daily and officials are "working with liaisons in the arrival cities as migrants travel to their destinations of choice."
The state did not answer questions about how many migrants are being bused out of Colorado each day.
Earlier this week, Gov. Jared Polis said about 70% of the migrants "don't have Denver as a final destination."
"No one should play politics with the lives of migrants who came here to escape oppression, and in Colorado, we are honoring our values of treating people with dignity and respect," he said.
But his decision to charter buses full of migrants to other states continues to draw some fire even from some fellow Democrats.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams said it was "unfair" for other governors to send migrants to his city when it was already lacking resources to handle the arrivals.
"This is unacceptable what's happening, and we opened close to sixty something emergency shelters," Adams told reporters at a press conference. "And we're not only having to make sure they have a place to sleep, which we're doing, but we're also having to overcrowd our schools, feed, clothe, healthcare and we're not receiving money from anyone."
Polis is defending his busing effort. He told the Colorado Sun this week that his program is different from previous GOP busing efforts because he is not forcing migrants to leave or taking them places they did not originally want to go.
More than 3,700 migrants have arrived in Denver since Dec. 9, according to the city of Denver.
The city says it is currently housing more than eight hundred migrants in emergency shelters.
And officials are looking for more space.
Officials toured a defunct Catholic nursing home in northwest Denver on Monday to see if it could eventually house migrants.
"The discussions with the Denver Archdiocese have gone well and are continuing," Jill Lis, a spokesperson for the city, said after the tour.

News Release 22-Jul-2016
A 'smart dress' for oil-degrading bacteria

Credit: From the research article.
Bionanotechnology research is targeted on functional structures synergistically combining macromolecules, cells, or multicellular assemblies with a wide range of nanomaterials. Providing micrometer-sized cells with tiny nanodevices expands the uses of the cultured microorganisms and requires nanoassembly on individual live cells.
Surface engineering functionalizes the cell walls with polymer layers and/or nanosized particles and has been widely employed to modify the intrinsic properties of microbial cells. Cell encapsulation allows fabricating live microbial cells with magnetic nanoparticles onto cell walls, which mimics natural magnetotactic bacteria.
For this study researchers from Kazan Federal University and Louisiana Tech University chose Alcanivorax borkumensis marine bacteria as a target microorganism for cell surface engineering with magnetic nanoparticles for the following reasons: (1) these hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria are regarded as an important tool in marine oil spill remediation and potentially can be used in industrial oil-processing bioreactors, therefore the external magnetic manipulations with these cells seems to be practically relevant; (2) A. borkumensis are marine Gram-negative species having relatively fragile and thin cell walls, which makes cell wall engineering of these bacteria particularly challenging.
Rendering oil-degrading bacteria with artificially added magnetic functionality is important to attenuate their properties and to expand their practical use.
Cell surface engineering was performed using polycation-coated magnetic nanoparticles, which is a fast and straightforward process utilizing the direct deposition of positively charged iron oxide nanoparticles onto microbial cells during a brief incubation in excessive concentrations of nanoparticles. Gram-negative bacteria cell walls are built from the thin peptidoglycan layer sandwiched between the outer membrane and inner plasma membrane, with lipopolysaccharides rendering the overall negative cell charge, therefore cationic particles will attach to the cell walls due to electrostatic interactions.
Rod-like 0.5-μm diameter Gram-negative bacteria A. borkumensis were coated with 70?100 nm magnetite shells. The deposition of nanoparticles was performed with extreme care to ensure the survival of magnetized cells.
The development of biofilms on hydrophobic surface is a very important feature of A. borkumensis cells because this is how these cells attach to the oil droplets in natural environments. Consequently, any cell surface modification should not reduce their ability to attach and proliferate as biofilms. Here, at all concentrations of PAH- magnetite nanoparticles investigated, authors of the study detected the similar biofilm growth patterns. Overall, the magnetized cells were able to proliferate and exhibited normal physiological activity.
The next generations of the bacteria have a tendency to remove the artificial shell returning to the native form. Such magnetic nanoencapsulation may be used for the A. borkumensis transportation in the bioreactors to enhance the spill oil decomposition at certain locations.
This study was supported by Russian Science Foundation Grant No. 14-14-00924.

Activision sinks into more hot water with lawsuit from NYC
May 5, 2022 12:29 PM EDT
Activision is under heavier fire than ever now that a new lawsuit is gunning for the company's internal documents.
By William Phelps
New York, New York - The legal water is roiling now, with another lawsuit targeting Activision and its leadership for botching its response to misconduct claims and rushing a buyout deal with Microsoft.

The New York City Employees' Retirement System filed a lawsuit on April 26, together with the pension funds for NYC's teachers, police, and firefighters, targeting gaming publisher Activision Blizzard, according to reports.
The groups have shares of Activision stock and claim in the suit that the way the company dealt with in-house sexual harassment and gender discrimination allegations, as well as its controversial buyout deal with Microsoft, dropped share value.
The NYC orgs question how fit Activision CEO Bobby Kotick was to make the Microsoft deal, and demands a long list of internal documents from Activision.
Celebrities Katy Perry reveals she declined to work with Billie Eilish: "Huge mistake!"
The documents, including info on Microsoft's buyout offer and other bidders, would help NYC officials find out if the Microsoft buyout and Kotick's continued leadership torpedoed the company's value.
One of the main points from the filing is that Kotick knew about the toxic workplace and mishandled it, which is why claimants believe he was and is unfit to lead the company.
"Given Kotick's personal responsibility and liability for Activision's broken workplace, it should have been clear to the Board that he was unfit to negotiate a sale of the Company," the filing said. "But it wasn't."
This lawsuit is just the newest in a string of legal actions aimed at Activision, including a recently settled harassment case in California where the company agreed to pay $18 million.

Tremont Dentist Faces Additional Indecent Assault Charges After More Victims Come Forward
A Tremont Dentist who was arrested earlier this month on sex charges is facing additional charges as more victims came forward.
Dr. Scott Miller Parkinson, 58, of Orwigsburg is already facing multiple sex charges after being taken into custody at his practice on East Laurel Street in Tremont on August 3rd, 2022.
For the first arrest, Dr. Parkinson had been charged with 1 felony county of sexual extortion by engaging in sexual conduct/nudity, 2 misdemeanor counts of indecent assault without the consent of others, 1 misdemeanor count of indecent exposure, 2 misdemeanor counts of disorderly conduct by using obscene language/gestures, and 2 misdemeanor counts of harassment.
The charges stem from an investigation into reports that he inappropriately touched and exposed himself to a former employee and patient.
According to Investigating Officer Trooper Bedford of the Schuylkill Haven State Police Barracks, Parkinson was brought before Magisterial District Judge Rossi a second time, on Tuesday, after 7 more victims came forward when the first arrest was made public. For both arrests, a total of 9 victims have reported incidents with Parkinson.
Dr. Parkinson's new charges include multiple counts of indecent assault, indecent exposure, and harassment. Judge Rossi released Dr. Parkinson on $50,000 unsecured bail for the second arrest.
He is scheduled to appear before Judge Rossi on October 6th, 2022 for a preliminary hearing.
State Police say they believe Dr. Parkinson's behavior has been ongoing for a considerable amount of time and they suspect he may have additional victims involving similar misconduct. Anyone who believes they have been a victim should contact the Schuylkill Haven Barracks by calling (570) 754-4600.

Speculation: The act will limit charitable giving.
No one knows the answer to this question – in fact, I suggest that no one knows if we'll ever know! The effect will not be apparent soon, and when it arrives will very likely be buried amid other economic factors: a continued strong economy (and sustained donations) may suggest to some that there is no effect, while a troubled economy might exaggerate any interpretation. Trying to ferret out the law's effect might be akin to trying to figure out which specific drink caused your hangover.
Since a conclusive answer to the overall effect may be hard to come by, maybe the best strategy for scrambling nonprofits is to understand that itemization (and charitable giving) will continue to be a case by case decision for every donor. There's nothing new about that – the key, as always, will be to send clear messages and build strong relationships (though perhaps with a bit more urgency than ever before). The tax law might leave a hole in your fundraising goal – but it's a hole that can be filled by your good spadework.
Fact: Tax rates have gone down, but many fewer donors will itemize their deductions.
The maximum tax rate has dropped from 39.6% to 37%, with all other brackets dropping as well. The standard deduction for married couples has been doubled to $24,000 with individuals increased to $12,000. The net effect is to slash 21 million taxpayers from claiming the charitable deduction. Two-thirds of middle-income households will no longer claim a charitable deduction. And for households in the $86,000 to $150,000 income bracket, only 15% will claim a charitable deduction, down from 39%.
We don't know the answer, but most likely, yes, as the game has changed for them.
On their face, changes in rates and standard deduction may seem unlikely to drive such significant changes in behavior. But consider: the personal exemption of $4,050 per person has been eliminated. In addition, deductions for state and local taxes are capped at $10,000, which will reduce taxpayers' incentive to deduct for state and real estate taxes.
When you add all of this up (decreased rates, doubled standard deductions, less robust deductions), the unique implications for each taxpayer make it very hard to speculate on the overall effect. What's clear, however, is that nonprofits that fail to adequately make the case for their mission will no longer have the safety net of tax deductions to help motivate donors. In 2018 and beyond, charities must step up their efforts to refine and communicate their message, so that charitable giving continues to offer donors valuable feelings of meaningful impact.
Fact: The (already dead) "death tax" has died — again.
If you still thought that estate tax had any influence on charitable giving, the Trump act should change that once and for all. This tax only ever applied to a small fraction of the top 1% — those whose estates were going to exceed the $5.5 million ($11 million for a couple) that the old law allowed them to pass untaxed. According to the Internal Revenue Service, of 12,411 estate tax returns filed in 2016, only 5,219 required a payment. Because the new act doubles the tax-free amount to $11 million per individual ($22 million per couple), the estate tax will trouble an even smaller fraction of the top 1%. As a development officer, it's unlikely you'll ever have the chance to provide advice (let alone motivate a gift) based on this tax – any family with $22 million in assets likely knows all they need to know about estate taxes.
Speculation: Donors who itemize their deductions will "stay the course" on giving.
This is where the good news lies (that is if you can make good news out of "a lack of bad news"): for donors who still itemize their deductions, there have been no changes that should disrupt their giving patterns. The law did add some charitable benefits for taxpayers who itemize (cash gifts up to 60% of adjusted gross income can now be deducted – up from 50% — and the Pease Amendment which limited deductions for high-income taxpayers have been repealed. Vanguard Charitable provided an excellent detailed summary of the law's quantitative effect).
Fact: Donors, and nonprofits, are likely to get creative.
Bottom line: the ultimate cost (or benefit) of the tax law will be difficult for individuals to prognosticate — there are just too many potentially beneficial or detrimental moving parts. Amid all the speculation, however, one thing is clear: nonprofits should get ready for a potentially wild ride as all this shakes out…and donors who care about those nonprofits should do their best to ease the effects through their continued generosity.

Home » Learn » History » Combat History » Korean War
On June 25, 1950, more than 135,000 soldiers of the People's Army from Russian-occupied North Korea (the Democratic People's Republic of Korea) invaded the Republic of Korea (ROK) in the south, crossing the boundary between their nations. The 38th Parallel, as the boundary was called, was drawn in August 1945, splitting what was once a territory of Imperial Japan and dividing it between the Soviets and Americans. By 1950, the two sides became individual states, each ruled by its own leader. In the north, communist Kim Il Sung garnered the support of the Soviets, while in the south, anti-communist Syngman Rhee was essentially backed by the US.
The invasion of South Korea brought Asia into the Cold War. The US viewed the invasion as an international communist threat and feared that the conflict would spread beyond Korea's borders.1 At its urging, the United Nations Security Council sent troops from 15 countries to assist South Korea. The large majority of these troops, led by General Douglas MacArthur, Commander in Chief, Far East, and then later by General Matthew Ridgeway, were American.
On July 5, for the first time since the end of World War II, American troops engaged in ground combat at Osan near Seoul. By September, the North Koreans had taken over much of the Korean peninsula and driven the ROK army to the region of Pusan. In October, Chinese Communist Forces began their first offensive, engaging in their first battle with US forces on November 1 near Unsan. Bitter and bloody battles, including those at Changjin (Chosin) and Seoul within the first six months of the war, would continue on for another two and a half years.
On July 27, 1953, the Korean War, technically a "conflict" since the US Congress did not actually declare "war," would finally come to an end. The armistice between North and South Korea would establish the boundary between nations as a demilitarized zone, or DMZ. By the end of the conflict, Americans suffered some 140,000 casualties.2 The total number of deaths of all armed forces involved is estimated to be more than 1,250,000.3 It is also estimated that at least two million and possibly as many as four million civilians died.4
The Korean War is often referred to as "The Forgotten War," a moniker it was given by US News and World Report as early as October 1951. In actuality, the war itself was not necessarily "forgotten" but, sadly, disregarded. At the time, the American public had little interest in the conflict once it failed to reach the scale of World War II, which had ended just five years prior.5
Today, the Korean War is often overshadowed by World War I, World War II, the Vietnam War, and now, the conflicts in the Middle East. The Nisei who served in Korea are also too often "forgotten."
In 1948, a few years after the end of World War II, segregation in the armed forces was abolished, and the Japanese Americans who fought in the Korean War and then later in the Vietnam War were fully integrated into American units. The Korean War was in fact the first US military conflict in which the races were fully integrated across combat units.6 There were no all-Nisei units like the 442nd Regimental Combat Team in the Korean War.7 Because of this racial integration, exact numbers of Japanese Americans who served in the Korean War are difficult to determine. However, the National Japanese-American Historical Society estimates that some 5,000 Japanese Americans served in the conflict.8 More than 240 Japanese Americans were killed in action.9
While many Nisei helped with the occupation efforts in Japan until 1952, others reported for duty in Korea. Several hundred Military Intelligence Service (MIS) Nisei, now veterans of World War II, served as interpreters, translators, and POW interrogators in Korea. Many Koreans spoke Japanese due to the lengthy period of Japanese occupation, which had only ended with World War II.
From June 1950, the Allied Translator and Interpreter Section (ATIS), then called the 500th MIS Support Group, Far East, became the main intelligence center for the Korean War. The MIS Nisei found themselves serving as linguists in Tokyo. They also served on the battlefront, working as interrogators of Korean POWs, using their Japanese language skills. In the event that the POW did not speak Japanese, the interrogations were translated from English to Japanese and then Japanese to Korean.10

Members from the famous 442nd Regimental Combat Team also served in Korea. One such Nisei was Corporal Hiroshi "Hershey" Miyamura, Company H, 7th Infantry Regiment, 3rd Infantry Division, a veteran of the 100th Battalion who had served at the end of World War II in Italy. On April 24, 1951, near Seoul, the machine gun squad leader demonstrated his valor during an enemy attack on his team. In the midst of the attack, Miyamura jumped from his secure position and engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy, killing at least ten men, and then another 50 or so with machine gun fire in an attempt to protect his team. In the process, he himself incurred severe wounds, and was captured by the Chinese Communist Forces and held as a prisoner of war for 28 months. He was awarded a Medal of Honor during his absence and did not learn of his commendation until after his release.11
Many Japanese American soldiers served bravely in the Korean War. After the war, some continued to serve in various roles worldwide, some moving on to the conflict in Vietnam. Others returned to the United States to restart their lives. Whether or not they returned to America, and whether or not they continued their military careers, many others would quietly slip back into everyday life with little recognition of what they had accomplished during the war.

AKIO KONOSHIMA:
Well, then I was assigned to the PW reports section where they did the---produced the PW reports, you know, put them in mimeograph form and that sort of thing. Others that had gone through the language school with me were put on assignment. They did some interrogation in Tokyo itself, but others were shipped over shortly after that to Korea to be interrog[ators]---to do interrogation there, because in Korea at that time, all the Koreans probably spoke a lot better Japanese than [6:00] we did, actually. And so the Korean people, all that interrogation was done in Japanese, I think. It was the Chinese---when the Chinese came in later, then it was a matter of using often Koreans that knew Chinese and Japanese. And of course we knowing, supposedly knowing Japanese, we get it in Japanese and put in English, actually, so it was a three-way interrogation in a sense.
Yeah. And your job was collating papers?
KONOSHIMA:
Well, in Tokyo it was, but when I went to Korea, then they needed someone to edit the PW reports, which is the main reason why they sent me to headquarters there.
Starts on Tape Three, between 20 and 22 minute marks
No, it's something that bothered me all the way through while I was in Japan. Of course, when I got to Korea it was a completely different show, I mean. Going through Army orientation, they told me about the history of Korea. Well, I knew better than the guide giving us the orientation, but, you know, they tell me, "Well, when you get there, don't use your Japanese because of this and that and all that." Well, it turned out to be so much nonsense because when I got there, they didn't speak any English. I don't speak any Korean, so we communicated basically in Japanese, I mean. And certainly there's no animosity or anything else, in fact. And the thing about the Koreans being anti-Japanese, well, as far as I was concerned, maybe they didn't see me as Japanese anyway because I was in the US uniform, but I didn't sense any of that anti-Japanese feeling among the Koreans at all. There was none of that.

A Northville resident, Mr. Condrad Podolski-Dowel will receive a Purple Heart which he earned in the Korean War. After the National Anthem in front of City Hall, the military will take over and award Mr. Podolski-Dowel his Purple Heart.
Read on to see why it took So Long for him to receive this award!
His life's journey has been most interesting…
After high school and uncertain of his future he decided to enter the Trapist Monk's Monastery in Kentucky. After one year and for health reasons, Mr. Dowel found it necessary to change careers. The Korean War was in full force and Mr. Dowel decided to serve his country as an Army Combat Medic in Korea. He served 3 years in the military and was honorably discharged in 1953. During his time in Korea and as part of his job as a Medic, he was loading wounded soldiers onto a jeep when the vehicle was hit by a bomb. His arms and back were injured and he was hospitalized in Japan for several weeks. He earned the Purple Heart (but was never awarded) because of the injuries sustained while helping the wounded soldiers.
After his recuperation he was sent to Ida Jima, Japan to train as an Airborne Ranger, Mr. Dowel was actually one of the first Airborne Rangers. He also continued being a medic for the injured on the front line.
After his discharge from the military he decided to pursue a career Psychotherapy earning his PHD in both Philosophy and Education and ultimately became a Child Psychotherapist in several school systems working with 'special needs' children until he retired in 1985. To demonstrate his caring, it was at this time that Mr. Podolski changed his name to Dowel because it would be easier for the children to pronounce.
And through all of this somehow the Purple Heart was never received until Monday, July 4, 2011. The reason it has taken so long, as he says, "I was trying to figure out who do I contact?"
Fortunately, Brigadier General Fausone had once worked with Mrs. Dowel and she was able to put Mr. Dowel in touch with the right person, Jim Dempsey of the Disabled American Veterans. Mr. Dowel began this journey about 18 months ago. Why did it take 18 months?
For one thing there was a fire at a military storage area in Chicago and that is where Mr. Dowell's records were. He now had to retrace his military career right back to Korea and Japan to verify that he was in the military and was wounded while on duty. Thanks to photos, arm bands, and medical records in Japan, his service and injuries were all verified.
Monday, at the Northville Independence Day Parade Opening Ceremonies Mr. Podolski-Dowel will receive his Purple Heart as well as his Combat Injury Medal. Immediately after the Anthem in front of Northville City Hall, Mr. Dowel will receive his Purple Heart awarded by Military dignitaries.
