When the man on the street becomes a work of art: Klaus Pobitzer's giant "People" take over Museion Passage.
There's a grungy girl in cargo pants and a cheeky-looking young lad, a bespectacled, pashima-wearing intellectual and a woman in a trenchcoat. The kind of people you pass in the street, in other words, but now on display in a museum. This is concept behind People, the project by the artist Klaus Pobitzer currently on show in Museion Passage: eight giant canvases of figures that are more than four metres tall and almost two across, have invaded the ground floor of the museum. The figures are drawn by the artist using a computer and printed on canvas in acrylics. The vibrantly colourful end result channels advertising graphics and comic strip style, evoking a return to pop art. The figures manage to convey something entirely familiar and common, yet diverse and unique, which is basically the essence of the individuals we pass on the street every day. The one-word title of the project also emphasises how the work appears to embody and fulfil Warhol's prophecy of "15 minutes of fame" for everyone.
This work was exhibited for the first time in Pobitzer's solo show at the Smak, the Stedelijk Museum voor Actuele Kunst in Ghent (Belgium) in 2006. It is a continuation of the modus operandi the artist began using in 2000, giving rise to various public projects including the huge installations he created for Milan's new exhibition centre in 2005.
Klaus Pobitzer was born in Silandro in 1971, and lives and works in Vienna.

Eagles 14 Niggers 17
(Racial Slur Database)
Lone Star Dietz, the inaugural coach of the Boston Redskins who are now the Washington Redskins, was a Native American? Daniel Snyder, the owner of the Redskins, insists he will never change the name as it honors the first coach and is in fact of term of respect and honor. Well, lets see how his contention impacts the argument against the name.
We'll begin with a little supposition. We'll make the inaugural coach a Black man, born and raised in the deep South who did not recognize the slight or degradation of the name. He was a big man, a strong man, a man who none would dare denigrate to his face. He was a proud Nigger. In his honor, lets imagine a little sports color and play by play;
"John Stamps, fifth year with the Niggers. He's real load! Only 5:10, but 310 pounds, and he runs the 40 in 4: 6. At 310 that's unheard of. Played at Stanford.
"At wide out; Matthew Williams, a long time Nigger, ten years, a starter every year except his third year when he tore his ACL. That was a disastrous year for the Niggers. For the year they had 19 players on injured reserve. But Matthew has made a complete recovery and is now the offensive Captain.
"At Center we have Thomas Toms, 305 pounds at 6'4". He has Niggers in his blood, his father played 30 years ago, and his mother was a big Niggers fan, was a Cheer Leader for 3 years from 1982 until 1985 when she married a Nigger. And now, Thomas. Nigger his runs deep with the Toms."
The ball is snapped and play by play commences: "Palmer give to Tucker. To the 21, across the 24 to the 25. A gain of 5. Pierce almost had him in the back field for a loss, but Tucker with that driving leg action was able to pickup positive yardage on the play."
We could go on, but you get the point. The ignorance or stupidity or hostility of any member(s) of a minority or non minority group can never be accepted as legitimate reasoning to damn others; nor can it excuse despicable conduct or behavior, particularly by those who should know better. It honors no one.
Matthew 7:12(NIV) So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.
Note: A color commentator, sometimes known as a color analyst, is a member of the broadcasting team for a sporting event who assists the play-by-play announcer by filling in any time when play is not in progress. The term is of North American origin. The color commentator provides expert analysis and background information, such as statistics, strategy and injury reports, on the teams and athletes, and occasionally light humor. Color commentators are often former players or coaches of the sport being broadcasted.

same pinout with TL074. I think it's exchangeable.
As is LM324 and most other quad opamps... All three, plus TL084 should be a nice set to try on.
what is the purpose of line 6 row 11 connection? I think it is connected to a blank line.
That's exactly what it is - extra ground lane, but a mistake. But luckily it doesn't affect anything.
Bottom switch could be subbed for a pot. Just replace the 33k reistor with 50k pot and you're done.
Yeah interesting! I'd remove the 10k and the 33k and just put the pot paralel to the 18nF. Maybe use a 25K pot with a 10k resistor in series.
Please add a link to the schematic!!! That should be part of every layout picture here. Many beginners start with just a layout and when they make a mistake, they realize that it's not as simple as color-by-numbers.
This has been discussed over and over. At least on 5 different occasions on separate comment threads. You may feel as butthurt as you like, but we are not able to post schematics - in many cases not even a link to a schematic.
1. If the schematic is drawn by one of us, then it is ok for us to post it. We are not able post anyone else's artwork without infringing their copyright.
2. Many of the schematics are behind closed websites that will require an user account. Linking to a schematic file to a forum that asks credentials is just stupid and comparable to paywalls.
Again. Since we are able to find the schematic file - you should be able to do so too. We are not (no, none of us) part of illuminati or similar secrect society that has access to something the rest of the world hasn't.
If you feel like a schematic is important part to add, then i suggest you redraw every single schematic we've laid out and publish them with at least CC license that allows anyone and everyone to share your work.
And for beginners... We've written and published quite a lot of tutorials on building and debugging. How much more hand holding is required? Last time i checked, we're doing this as a hobby and thus, not getting paid. So where shall i return the zero currency units you paid me for my crappy service?
Sorry. Didn't mean to sound this mean.. But i just don't enjoy being held accountable for not doing anything wrong.
I had a PCB of a tubescreamer laying around and I made this overdrive with the normal transistor buffers (MPSA18!) and one 4558. This sounds incredible good and very, very SRV like! The original schematic has two opamp buffers, but this makes no difference in sound with transistor buffers. Did the edge mod with a 10kB pot and a 1k5 resistor. Did the bottom mod with 100kA pot and 10k in series. Extreme good sounding screamer.
hi, Should there be a resistor going to pin 5.....1 Meg bias ??
Well, I have built it as per the above schematic and it works - somewhat noisy in the 'high' gain mode, but I'm going to try other IC's from the LF444.
Pin 5 has no resistor so the only way that the input IC can get any bias is the voltage fed back from its output back into the '-' input. I am willing to be corrected if I am wrong.
Thanks for that, John. I followed what you said, even if i didnt entirely understand it!
As it happens, im having a bit of unusual bother with my build. It sounds great (tried lf444, tl074, tl064, lf347, lm324) and the controls/switches work as indicated. But after about 1 minute, it quickly splutters and stops working. I still get a change in background hum if i adjust pots and switches, but no signal. If i leave it unplugged and switched off for a while it then starts working again.
I wondered if it might be a dodgy capacitor? The only 100uF i had was a 16v - but i understand that should be ok.
If you haven't installed the 1 meg resistor then the output will drift.
I found the schemo on K Helstrom photo bucket page, second page, hand drawn on 1/4 inch graph paper. This was eluded to in a post further up the tread.
Apologies for the delay in replying to you, and thanks for your assistance again. I have tried to find the schematic, but the link above no longer works, and Google hasnt been my friend.
The 1M resistor - would it go from ground to any spare hole attached to pin 5, eg just left of the 100nF cap leg?
I am assuming the 1M between input and ground isn't what you're talking about.
Yes, present 1meg is the input reference resistor.
Yes, again 1meg from V/2 to pin 5.
I simply sleeved the new 1Meg and soldered it to the bottom of the strip board, slightly raised so as not to short.
Forgot to mention that there was some discussion and mods on the DIYstompboxs.com forum.
John - i installed the 1meg resistor between pin 5 and ground, but this only seemed to make things worse, making the overdrive spluttet and 'fart' out. I won't give up (mostly as my 5 yr old 'designed' the enclosure), but reckon a whole new vero is in order with some more sockets to try different components.
Good grief, im an idiot. One of these days i'll follow simple instructions correctly (thought id read the schematic ok too). Apologies, and thanks for the patience!
John - a quick word to say your assistance is much appreciated. Despite looking a bit messy, my vero build now works. And sounds pretty good too.
I mis-read the schematic, thinking the downwards triangle was another ground point and not, as it should have been, to Vcc/2.
All good.................life is for living and learning.
Don't forget to visit the DIY forum for the Jersey discussion and mods.
And, on a second note, you probably have a wiring problem or a component soldered to the wrong place.

What if everything you ever thought was true about your past, wasn't true at all?
Liana Winn has always felt like an outsider in her family. As a child she was adopted by relatives after her parents' plane accident in India, but now that she is as an adult, her disjointed memories—and nightmares—of the past continue to make it impossible for her to bridge the wide gulf she still feels with her adoptive family. She is plagued by questions about her parents' deaths and wonders if that event is the reason for her inability to form deep personal relationships. Although her adoptive brother Christian has become her greatest friend and supporter, she even has difficulty bonding with him. Needing someone means love, and losing those you love hurts too much.
When Liana meets successful businessman, Austin Walker, who has risen above his own difficult childhood on a Wyoming farm, she's certain their business will not extend to friendship. Yet she cannot deny their powerful connection and the feeling of hope he offers for romance.
But the ghosts of the past will not rest for Liana, and while searching for answers, she makes a shocking discovery that just might mean the end of everything she's ever believed.
Take Me Home is about healing, redemption, and self-discovery. This powerful women's fiction piece will resonate strongly with any reader interested in stories of personal heritage and Ukrainian orphanages, adoption, and connections with those who would be accepted as family. –D. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review
Note: All the stories in the Finding Home Series are complete stories without cliffhangers. Each novel is about a separate couple. There are tie-ins with the series, of course, but you do not have to read them in order. Enjoy!

'Make schools colder to improve learning'
by Amlan Das/ January 3, 2018/ Learning/	No Comments/
The EIS teaching union claims a maximum temperature would make schools safer and improve health and wellbeing
Students will learn better if a maximum permissible temperature is introduced in schools, a teaching union has claimed. It also believes that this would make schools safer and improve the health of staff and students.
The EIS teaching union, Scotland's largest, said that workplace regulations already set a minimum threshold of 16°C – or 13°C "where rigorous physical effort is taking place" – but that there is no equivalent for maximum temperature.
It is calling for a maximum temperature in response to a Scottish government consultation on updating regulations for school premises.
EIS general secretary Larry Flanagan said: "Too much heat can cause fatigue, tiredness and loss of concentration, which can lead to increased accident risks and impaired learning experiences for children and young people."
Current workplace regulations are "too vague to be applied meaningfully in school settings", he added, stating only that the temperature in all workplaces inside buildings should be "reasonable".
Mr Flanagan said: "Schools sometimes send pupils home when the school is too cold – but we also need to be aware of the potential risk of classrooms being too hot for pupils and teachers to work in safely."
University of Salford research has suggested that the classroom environment can affect a child's academic progress by as much as 25 per cent a year.

"Star Watching Network" is an activity in which individuals simultaneously nation-wide star observation by familiar means, such as with the naked eyes or binoculars. This project has been conducted twice a year (summer and winter) since 1988 with the aim of stimulating interests of participants toward clean and clear atmosphere without any light or air pollution.
Through this project, the Ministry of the Environment (MOE) has tried to widely appeal the significance of clean air. The MOE will further promote various policies which foster favorable outdoor lighting set-ups, the prevention of global warming and the improvement of local atmospheric environment, such as the diffusion of lighting apparatuses with less light leakage into the air and with subdued lighting.
Participants are required to watch the stars for more than one day during the period.
Observe the Milky Way in three different altitudes (in the vicinity of Perseus, Gemini, and Monoceros).
Observe stars near the racket-shaped area in the Pleiades star clusters and check the magnitude of the stars observed.
Apply to the authorities in charge of air quality management in prefectural, ordinance designated cities, or in the core city governments.
Star Watching Network activities are introduced in the MOE webpage for children at http://www.env.go.jp/kids/star.html (in Japanese).
The MOE has designated 23 locations at which observation is conducted consecutively for photographing stars, in order to assess night sky brightness.


Despite the fact I've started sharing Lost and Found on this blog, it isn't quite finished. I've been going over it chapter by chapter and cleaning it up, polishing it and making it as good as I can. Midway through the novel I ran into some problems that necessitated extensive changes. That slowed down my progress and resulted in the situation I'm in now; serializing a novella that isn't quite finished. However, at this precise moment I am, quite literally, fifteen minutes away from having Lost and Found polished and done. Ready to get sent out for reviews. So why am I blogging?
Why haven't I finished it up?
As a psych student I could come up with several valid theories. Things about endings, letting go, perfectionism… but truthfully I don't know what the answer is. I don't know why I've spent the last hour or so mindlessly surfing instead of finishing up these last few paragraphs, I just have.
Enough of that. Time to get this finished and start collecting reviews. Really. As soon as I post this blog.
Happy Birthday! Now with cookies!
It's not just any birthday though, today my little girl turns thirteen. Thriteen. Wow. So now I'm officially the mother of a teenager. And not just any teenager, a freaking awesome one.
For those of you who haven't had the pleasure to meet Dani, let me tell you a little bit about her. Danica is clever, funny and creative. She loves rice, ice cream and tofu and up until recently wouldn't eat a green vegetable without a significant amount of coercion. She's a huge fan of horror movies (her favourite movie when she was 3 was Interview With a Vampire), enjoys singing, drawing and hanging out with her family. The most remarkable thing about Danica, however, is the size of her heart.
Last year at the end of the year her teacher passed out personalised presents to all the kids in her class. On each of them she'd chosen one word she thought applied to that particular person. On Danica's she'd written "Benevolent" and I think she hit the nail on the head. Danica has got the biggest, kindest heart of anyone I've ever met.
I love her to pieces and I'm so very proud to be her mother, and honored to have been able to watch and help guide her as she grew up to become the wonderful young lady she is today. The teenage years are challenging ones, there is no denying it, but they are also exciting and full of potential. I have no doubt Danica will navigate through them with style and grace and continue to make me more proud than I could ever express.
I love you Goober, happy birthday!
Ever since Dani was very, very small we've baked together. At first she was actually so little she couldn't sit up in her highchair without help and I'd have to tuck towels in around her to keep her upright, so she was just sort of watching what was going on. Now, she is more often than not to be the one in charge of the baking with me acting as supervisor and sometime assistant. It's a happy coincidence then that my friend Beth is asking her friends to share some of their favourite recipes over the next few days in order to celebrate the publication of her baking-related story in the Mountain Magic anthology coming out on the 9th.
If you can do this in a mixer than you get bonus points. I sometimes start out with the hand mixer and then switch to a fork for lack of a funtastic uber mixing machine.
Cream the butter and sugars together, then add the salt and vanilla and mix it until its fluffy. Add the eggs and the baking soda and give it another mix, then start adding the flour. Finally add the chocolate chips and skor bits if you've got them. Drop by the spoonful onto a greased cookie sheet and back at 350 for about 11 minutes.
Check out Beth's recipe at her blog: Catch A Star As It Falls.

James Dolan Can't Do the Right Thing—Even With Spike Lee
The Knicks owner just can't help himself, which is why he'll never be able to help the franchise. As long as JD is in charge, New York has no shot—let alone a straight one—at winning.
By Rodger Sherman Mar 3, 2020, 4:09pm EST
Share All sharing options for: James Dolan Can't Do the Right Thing—Even With Spike Lee
They moved the deck chairs on the Titanic, and apparently they moved the entrances through which famous people are allowed to enter Madison Square Garden. At least the Titanic sank quickly—the Knicks have been taking on water for decades. Monday was hypothetically a good day for the franchise, as they announced a new team president and notched a surprising win against one of the league's best teams. But Tuesday dawned, and James Dolan is still the captain—he paid a lot of money for that little hat—and as long as that's the case, the ship is still going down, and all the changes will add up to nothing.
First, the good news. The Knicks' new president is Leon Rose, a longtime agent at CAA with a roster of big-name players. The idea behind hiring an agent like Rose is that he has a proven history of establishing relationships with the league's stars, and can finally convince marquee players to sign with the Knicks. (Of course, considering some of Rose's former clients—from Carmelo Anthony to Julius Randle, from Frank Ntilikina to Eddy Curry, Andrea Bargnani, Renaldo Balkman, and Mardy Collins—one could be forgiven for presuming that Rose has been running the Knicks for quite some time.) And just hours after announcing Rose, the lowly Knicks went out and beat the playoff-bound Rockets, easily their biggest win of the season, with rookie RJ Barrett posting a career-high 27 points. What a day for a sad franchise!
But don't worry, the focus soon shifted back to the Knicks' dysfunction. During the game, a video circulated of Spike Lee getting into an argument with MSG staff. Lee, the team's most prominent and consistently upbeat supporter, had trouble getting into the game Monday night, as he apparently couldn't enter through the same door he had been using for the past 28 years. The issue appeared to be minor and fixable, especially after Lee and Dolan spoke at halftime. One could presume that Dolan was apologizing to the team's longtime patron, and that things would be smoothed over. But that's just not how the Knicks do business.
On Tuesday morning, Lee went on ESPN's First Take to announce that he was done attending Knicks games for the rest of the season. He felt that Dolan and the Knicks were "harassing" him, and that the statement the Knicks put out the previous night about his conversation with Dolan was "Garden spin."

However, the Knicks could not let Lee have the final word. They immediately released a statement that began with "The idea that Spike Lee is a victim … is laughable" and somehow went even farther downhill from there.

— NY_KnicksPR (@NY_KnicksPR) March 3, 2020
The Knicks, incredibly, even attached a picture of the entrance and a grainy photo of Dolan and Lee shaking hands at Monday night's game. This was meant to serve as a mic drop—Lee had claimed he didn't shake Dolan's hand, and yet here were nearly 200 pixels proving otherwise. The note finishes by referring to Dolan simply as "Jim," as if he's our friend and not the vain billionaire who has concluded that the size of his bank account means he's smarter than everybody else in the building.
This is the second high-profile feud with a beloved Knicks icon that Dolan has had in the past few years: Almost exactly three years ago, MSG security kicked fan favorite Charles Oakley out of the building and Dolan accused the stalwart of alcoholism. (Dolan, who has experienced alcoholism himself, likes to accuse basically anybody who disagrees with him of alcoholism.)
It is truly baffling that the team chose to go in on Spike, who has arguably been the face of the franchise for 25 years and counting. I'm a Knicks fan, and I can barely muster the energy to watch my doomed team—let alone witness it in person. Lee has stood by the franchise through thick and thin—mainly thin—and paid millions for the privilege of doing so. When confronted on ESPN with the cumulative $10 million bill for his almost 30 years of front-row seats, Lee simply said "I look stupid now!")
Jayson Tatum Is Up to the Challenge
Giannis Antetokounmpo Has Become the NBA's Apex Predator
If the Knicks had just said nothing, they probably could have gotten away with Monday night's mistake. Sure, their most famous fan was mad on television, but one could have been convinced that this was just an entitled celebrity spouting off because he wasn't treated like a king. But James Dolan's Knicks are physically incapable of saying nothing (unless someone is asking tough questions). They couldn't resist making a public statement painting Dolan as being in the right and his enemies as being in the wrong. Of course, the hyperbolic fury of the statement immediately made it clear that Dolan was the one off-kilter. Dolan doesn't hesitate to expel anybody who criticizes the Knicks, but he also takes issue with people whose support for the Knicks is more prominent than his own. It took 25 years, but Dolan eventually got pissed off about how a universally respected director pays massive sums of money to loudly support his team.
Dolan's decision to feud with Lee underlines why the hiring of Rose will ultimately be futile, just like the hirings of Phil Jackson and Isiah Thomas and every other person the Knicks have tabbed over the past two decades to right the ship. For years now, the Knicks' rebuilding strategy has simply been to hope big-name free agents will sign with them because of the bright lights and supposed glory of playing in New York. Instead, those stars have famously avoided the Knicks because of the dysfunction that has infested the organization at every level, from the owner to the front office to the PR team.
The team can hire a brand-new front office and a brand consultant to try to make the Knicks seem "cool" again, but there's nothing cool about a franchise whose ownership will ensure that the fan base will spend the morning after a big win pissed off and embarrassed. And as long as that's the case, nobody will want to sign with the Knicks. I feel like I've written this story before, because of course, I have, multiple times. Every supposed cure for the Knicks ignores that Dolan is what actually ails them. Spike Lee has been kicked out of his deck chair; the ship still be sinkin'.

Q: Can someone explain to me what I'm doing when creating a list in C++? While I get the concept behind lists and pointers, I just don't understand the script, what each part is saying. Here's an example of what we've been doing in class:
struct Node
{
   int info;
   struct Node * next;
};

struct Node * first;

first=NULL;

I do get the second part: simply defining the first element in the list and assigning an empty value to it. But what about the struct Node part?

A: struct Node
{
   int info;
   struct Node * next;
};

Defines a struct type named Node containing 2 data members, an int and a struct Node* pointer.  A struct is a way to group related data together in memory. A class is another way. These are more formally known as compound types.
When used in a linked list of nodes, each node's next member will be set to point at the following node in the list.  The last node in the list will have its next member set to NULL instead.  Starting with the first node in a list, you can iterate the whole list from one node to the next until NULL is reached.
struct Node * first;

Declares a pointer variable named first of type struct Node * (the struct keyword is optional here in C++, but is required in C).
first=NULL;

Sets the pointer variable first to a value of NULL (ie, for a linked list with no nodes in it).

A: Get five coat hangers. Consider each of them one variable of type Node (struct Node is the same, just in a C-style of syntax, which a C++ compiler also accepts).
Your hand is the pointer first (of type Node * in C++ syntax and struct Node * in the C-style).
Your hand being still empty is like first being NULL.
Take one of the coat hangers in your hand. (Hold it on one end, not on the hook.)
Now first points to the first hanger. (Hold the first hanger with the hook pointing down.)
Hang the second hanger into the hook of the first, so that the second hook is empty and pointing down. You have added the second element to your list, by making the hook/pointer of the first hold the second. The hook of the second is empty, NULL.
Hang the third hanger into the second, third hook pointing down and empty.
Add the fourth likewise.
Your second hand, if you ever use it, is a helper pointer, you will often need one.
Whatever you are asked to do with linked lists, try it with your five hangers first,
this should help you with all programming problems you encounter.
Good luck.
I am thinking of coat hangers looking like this

Nothing But Thieves – Nothing But Thieves
U.S. Release: 2/5/16 via RCA Records
History has repeated itself once again. The United States is a half step behind the British on the music front.
Last October, London's indie heartthrobs Bastille tweeted praises for fellow Englishmen Nothing But Thieves. Their self-titled debut album had just dropped to the lauding masses, but those of us bound stateside had to wait a few more months for it to bridge the Atlantic Ocean. Then Feb. 5 arrived.
RCA Records released the album. The band has since booked a slew of upcoming U.S. shows, performed on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" and even released a music video starring RJ Mitte (aka Walter Jr., aka Flynn, aka if you're not a "Breaking Bad" fan this makes no sense to you).
It's safe to say the album is a hit. Nothing But Thieves merges alternative modernity with rocking guitars to create their alluring sound. Lead singer Conor Mason's vocals are first class. His pipes have the purity of a pop star and the strength of a seasoned veteran. It's difficult to place this group into a specific genre. They mix watery indie guitar licks and distorted power chords while keeping a hint of pop sensibility. Their melodies glue themselves to the underside of your skull without making you want to bang your head against the nearest brick. The sheer catchiness of these tracks transports the American listener back to a day when Fall Out Boy was king and Green Day practically owned radio. Nothing But Thieves are obviously far from pop-punk, but they trigger a similar feeling of empowerment in listeners. These guys are making rock music with a contemporary twist that appeals to their generation.
Each track is like a single. It takes all of 51 seconds for the opening track, "Excuse Me", to drop jaws by showcasing Mason's vocal versatility. The same is true of "Itch", which is fit for a full-volume blast. "Trip Switch" captures the personality of the album through its poppy chorus and its tasty alt-rock drum and guitar pocket. It's a great segue into the depths of the chilling ballad, "Lover, Please Stay". Grab the deluxe album to experience the irresistibly syncopated verses and grimy guitar solos of "Hanging" or the Muse-esque "Six Billion". You won't be disappointed.
Here's the rundown.
Italicized tracks are only on the deluxe album.
Excuse Me
Ban All the Music
Itch
If I Get High
Graveyard Whistling
Trip Switch
Lover, Please Stay
Tempt You (Evocatio)
Honey Whiskey
Neon Brother
Six Billion
Thank heavens the Brits have done it again. This album is the real deal. Nothing But Thieves deserve nothing but praise, and they're out to steal your heart.

Cord fue una marca de automóviles de lujo estadounidense con sede en Auburn (Indiana), fabricados por la Auburn Automobile Company entre 1929 y 1932, y de nuevo entre 1936 y 1937.

La Cord Corporation fue fundada y dirigida por E. L. Cord como un conglomerado empresarial debido a sus diversos intereses en el campo del transporte, incluyendo la empresa de automóviles de Auburn. Cord se caracterizó por su tecnología innovadora y sus diseños de línea aerodinámica.

Innovaciones
Dos de las innovaciones introducidas por Cord son la tracción delantera en el L-29 y los faros escamoteables en los modelos 810 y 812.

Aunque DeSoto los utilizó en 1942, los faros escamoteables no volvieron a aparecer como una característica de lujo hasta la década de 1960, comenzando con el Chevrolet Corvette de 1963. Fue seguido dos años más tarde por su compañero de división en General Motors, el Buick Riviera, en el que los estilistas de GM indicaron más adelante que estaban tratando de capturar la "sensación" del diseño del Cord.

También se usó un "servo" mecanismo de cambio, valiéndose de un pre-selector con un sistema de electro-vacío diseñado por Bendix (un tipo de desplazamiento electromecánico).

Cord L-29
Este fue el primer coche de tracción delantera estadounidense en ser ofrecido al público, adelantándose al Ruxton por varios meses en 1929. Creación del antiguo ingeniero de Miller, Cornelius Van Ranst, su sistema de accionamiento estaba tomado de los coches de competición dominantes en las 500 Millas de Indianápolis, usando el mismo diseño con eje De Dion y frenos interiores. Construido en Auburn, Indiana, el Cord fue el primer automóvil de tracción delantera en utilizar juntas homocinéticas. Aunque se usa comúnmente en la actualidad en todos los vehículos de tracción delantera, sería Cord en 1929 la primera marca en utilizarla. La ausencia de los componentes de la transmisión trasera y el bastidor plano (sin la línea ascendente trasera empleada para alojar el eje trasero), permitió que este automóvil tuviera una altura mucho menor que los coches con los que competía, cuya altura promedio era de alrededor de 1,8 m. Tanto el modelo de serie como algunos modelos especiales construidos sobre el chasis del Cord por carroceros europeos ganaron premios en concursos en todo el mundo. El L-29 estaba equipado con una instrumentación muy completa, incluyendo un indicador de temperatura, indicador de presión de aceite, y el velocímetro a la izquierda, con un medidor de combustible, medidor de nivel de aceite, y amperímetro a la derecha del volante.

Estaba accionado por un Motor SV 120 de 4934 cc y 93,2 kW (125 HP) fabricado en Auburn, con el cigüeñal sobresaliendo a través de la parte frontal del bloque y el volante de inercia montado allí. Disponía de una transmisión de tres velocidades, aunque su mecánica y la del eje delantero no eran muy adecuadas, por lo que el coche, de 2130 kg de peso, vio limitada su velocidad máxima a un poco menos de 130 km/h, un valor insuficiente incluso entonces, superado en este aspecto por numerosos otros coches de menor precio. Sin embargo, su estilo era muy bueno, y a pesar de la batalla de 3490 mm y la dirección que exigía dar cuatro vueltas de tope a tope, su suavidad y manejo eran soberbios. Con un precio de alrededor de 3000 dólares, competía con los Cadillac, Marmon, Lincoln, Packard, Franklin y Stutz. El Chrysler de 1930 imitó su estilo. Sin embargo, la Gran Depresión afectó gravemente al mercado de los coches de lujo, y el Cord L-29 dejó de producirse en 1932, con tan solo 4400 unidades vendidas. La distancia entre ejes era de 3,5 m y la altura del sedán era de 1,54 m.

Cord Modelo 810/812

El Modelo 810/812 es probablemente el producto más conocido de la compañía. Diseñado por Gordon M. Buehrig, contaba con tracción delantera y suspensión delantera independiente, lo que permitió que fuera extraordinariamente bajo, lo que a su vez hizo posible que se prescindiera de los estribos. Accionado por un motor V8 Lycoming de  y  como el L-29, el 810 tenía una caja de cambios de cuatro velocidades seleccionables eléctricamente y transmisión semiautomática entre otras innovaciones.

El coche causó sensación en la Salón del Automóvil de Nueva York en noviembre de 1935. Se recibieron numerosos pedidos, y la empresa se comprometió a servirlos en Navidad, con una producción prevista de 1000 unidades por mes. Sin embargo, diversas incidencias en la fabricación obligaron a retrasar la fecha de entrega prevista hasta febrero de 1936, una estimación que se revelaría bastante optimista, puesto que los primeros vehículos de serie no se entregaron hasta abril. En total, Cord logró vender tan solo 1174 unidades del nuevo 810 en su primer año del modelo. El coche pasó a ser conocido por su frontal plano con un diseño de la parrilla tipo persiana que se asemejaba a un ataúd, ganándose el sobrenombre de "Nariz de Ataúd" ("Coffin Nose").

Desaparición de la empresa
Los primeros problemas de fiabilidad, incluido el deslizamiento de las marchas y el vaporizado del combustible (que interrumpía el suministro de carburante al motor), enfriaron el entusiasmo inicial y la base de distribuidores se redujo rápidamente. Las unidades del 810 sobrantes en 1936 y en proceso de venta, se volvieron a numerar y se vendieron como 812 al año siguiente. En 1937, Auburn cesó la producción del Cord. Se construyó un único prototipo del Cord de 1938 con algunos cambios en la rejilla y la cubierta de la transmisión, que todavía existe (2015). El imperio Cord, en medio de acusaciones de fraude financiero, se vendió a Aviation Corporation y E.L. Cord se mudó a Nevada, donde ganó millones en bienes raíces y otras empresas.

Reedición

El diseño del Cord 812 se volvió a comercializar casi de inmediato en 1940, cuando los fabricantes de automóviles Hupmobile y Graham-Paige, que estaban en problemas, intentaron ahorrar dinero y revivir sus empresas utilizando los mismos troqueles de carrocería. Excepto su similitud externa con el 810, los sedanes de cuatro puertas Hupp Skylark y el Graham Hollywood no tenían nada especial. Los faros delanteros retráctiles dieron paso a faros simples, y la planta motriz optó por un diseño estándar de motor delantero y tracción trasera. Si bien Hupp Motor Company construyó algunos prototipos en 1939 que le valieron pedidos de venta para el año modelo 1939, no disponía de los recursos necesarios para fabricar el automóvil. Graham Paige se ofreció a construir los Hupmobile Skylark en base a un contrato por pieza, y construyó 1850 unidades combinadas para la venta del modelo de 1940. Hupmobile cerró antes de que se lanzara el modelo de 1941. De los 1850 coches producidos del modelo de 1940 por Graham, solo unos 450 eran Hupmobile Skylark. Graham continuó construyendo el modelo Hollywood a finales de 1941, pero la fabricación se detuvo en noviembre de ese mismo año después de haberse construido tan solo unas 400 unidades. El Hollywood era impulsado por un motor Continental sobrealimentado de seis cilindros en línea que rendía 124 HP, casi 50 menos que el Cord original sobrealimentado.

En la cultura popular
 La trama de la película protagonizada por David Niven, Where the Spies Are presenta un raro convertible Cord como incentivo para que el héroe emprenda una misión de espionaje.

 La película Where the Spies Are está basada en la novela de James Leasor Passport to Oblivion, que forma parte de una serie de novelas de suspense/intriga protagonizadas por el ficticio Dr. Jason Love, cuyo "encaprichamiento" con el roadster Cord es una parte destacada de la trama.

 En la novela Vive y deja morir, Felix Leiter maneja un Cord de modelo no especificado cuando coincide con James Bond en Florida.

 El diseño original del Batmobile era un convertible rojo basado en el Cord 812, que el creador de Batman, Bob Kane, consideraba uno de sus vehículos favoritos y adecuado para el justiciero millonario.

 La película de 1965 "What's New Pussycat?" presentaba un convertible Cord 810 rojo bastante estropeado con faros amarillos usados en Francia. El coche era utilizado en varias escenas por Woody Allen, cuyo personaje conducía sobre las aceras de París.

 En la película de 1994 "La sombra", Moses Shrevnitz (Peter Boyle) conduce un Cord 810 Westchester de 1936, alargado a medida y pintado como un taxi.

 Los rompecabezas de la marca "bePUZZLED" cuentan con una breve historia de misterio que acompaña a la imagen del rompecabezas ensamblado. Uno de ellos, lanzado en 1992, presenta un Cord 810 de 1936 de color crema formando parte de la historia.

 En el juego de combate de coches exclusivo de PlayStation de 2001, Twisted Metal: Black, un conductor posee un automóvil basado en el Cord 810, apodado "Crazy 8".

 Como parte de su serie, Jay Leno's Garage en 2013, Jay Leno presentó su propio Cord 812 sobre el que había escrito en Popular Mechanics. El coche había sido restaurado con mucho cariño por el restaurador aficionado Arthur Pirre.

 En el álbum de 1973 de Gram Parsons GP, la canción "The New Soft Shoe" está escrita sobre E.L Cord y sus famosos automóviles.

 En la clásica película policial El Padrino, se ve brevemente un convertible Cord 810 en la propiedad de Jack Woltz.

 Algunas versiones de la canción de Rodgers y Hart The Lady Is a Tramp se refieren a "Lincolns and Cords".

NBA Players Decide to Resume the Playoffs After One-Day Strike
Sports - 5 months ago
Photo Credit: Kevin C. Cox/Getty Images
NBA players voted to resume the playoffs on Friday.
In the wake of the shooting of Jacob Blake in Kenosha, Wisconsin, protests sprang up across the major sports leagues. The biggest surprise occurred on Wednesday, when the Milwaukee Bucks decided to go on strike for their Game 5 playoffs matchup against the Orlando Magic. The league's other four teams scheduled to play also decided not to play. After multiple meetings regarding a plan of action, the league will reportedly resume scheduled games on Friday.
Change doesn't happen with just talk!! It happens with action and needs to happen NOW! For my @IPROMISESchool kids, kids and communities across the country, it's on US to make a difference. Together. That's why your vote is @morethanavote ✊🏾 #BlackLivesMatter

The NBA's players have decided to resume the playoffs, source tells ESPN.
— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) August 27, 2020
ESPN Senior Insider Adrian Wojnarowski broke the news on Thursday morning. According to at least one source, Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James had a change of heart, opting that it was in the players' best interest to continue the playoffs after all.
Yahoo Sources: There was a change in position from last night with LeBron James, among others, relaying it was in their best interest to finish out the season.
— Chris Haynes (@ChrisBHaynes) August 27, 2020
The Athletic senior analyst Shams Charania previously reported that the Los Angeles Lakers and Clippers voted to sit out the rest of the season.
Sources: The Lakers and Clippers have voted to boycott the NBA season. Most other teams voted to continue. LeBron James has exited the meeting.
— Shams Charania (@ShamsCharania) August 27, 2020
The strike was the first NBA work stoppage since the lockout in 2011. However, lockouts are fueled by the owners, not the players. In 1964, NBA All-Stars staged a strike before tipoff in protests of poor working conditions for all players. However short this strike was, the events were pretty much unprecedented.
The NBA, WNBA, MLB, and MLS all postponed games amidst protests among players. Players from the six WNBA teams scheduled to play on Wednesday locked arms while wearing T-shirts that spelled Blake's name. TNT commentator Kenny Smith walked off the studio set in a show of solidarity with the players.
17-year-old Illinois native Kyle Rittenhouse was arrested after allegedly shooting three people in protests surrounding the Jacob Blake shooting.

As server and application infrastructures move to the cloud, one of the critical challenges for the enterprise IT organizations is to ensure they effectively and securely manage high privilege access to those systems. This requires having full visibility over who has access to what, how to enable and revoke access reliably, enabling access to users regardless of their location or device type, automate rotation of sensitive account passwords, SSH keys and SSL certificates and having mechanisms to monitor and record all user actions. This session presents typical scenarios with real world examples around this challenge and recommends a strategy to build an effective privileged access management program for enterprise IT organizations.

Hippocampal abnormalities and age in chronic schizophrenia: morphometric study across the adult lifespan
N. Pujol, R. Penadés, C. Junqué, I. Dinov, C. H. Y. Fu, R. Catalán, N. Ibarretxe-Bilbao, N. Bargalló, M. Bernardo, A. Toga, R. J. Howard, S. G. Costafreda
Journal: The British Journal of Psychiatry / Volume 205 / Issue 5 / November 2014
Hippocampal abnormalities have been demonstrated in schizophrenia. It is unclear whether these abnormalities worsen with age, and whether they affect cognition and function.
To determine whether hippocampal abnormalities in chronic schizophrenia are associated with age, cognition and socio-occupational function.
Using 3 T magnetic resonance imaging we scanned 100 persons aged 19–82 years: 51 were out-patients with stable schizophrenia at least 2 years after diagnosis and 49 were healthy volunteers matched for age and gender. Automated analysis was used to determine hippocampal volume and shape.
There were differential effects of age in the schizophrenia and control samples on total hippocampal volume (group×age interaction: F (1,95) = 6.57, P = 0.012), with steeper age-related reduction in the schizophrenia group. Three-dimensional shape analysis located the age-related deformations predominantly in the mid-body of the hippocampus. In the schizophrenia group similar patterns of morphometric abnormalities were correlated with impaired cognition and poorer socio-occupational function.
Hippocampal abnormalities are associated with age in people with chronic schizophrenia, with a steeper decline than in healthy individuals. These abnormalities are associated with cognitive and functional deficits, suggesting that hippocampal morphometry may be a biomarker for cognitive decline in older patients with schizophrenia.
Affective modulation of external misattribution bias in source monitoring in schizophrenia
S. G. Costafreda, G. Brébion, P. Allen, P. K. McGuire, C. H. Y. Fu
Journal: Psychological Medicine / Volume 38 / Issue 6 / June 2008
Schizophrenic patients tend to attribute internal events to external agents, a bias that may be linked to positive symptoms. We investigated the effect of emotional valence on the cognitive bias.
Male schizophrenic subjects (n=30) and an experimenter alternatively produced neutral and negative words. The subject then decided whether he or the experimenter had generated the item.
External misattributions were more common than self-misattributions, and the bias was greater for patients with active hallucinations and delusions relative to patients in remission. Actively psychotic patients but not patients in remission were more likely to generate external misattributions with negative relative to neutral words.
Affective modulation of the externalizing cognitive bias in source monitoring is evident in patients with hallucinations and delusions.


Should I get baptized? Why is baptism important? What is baptism like?
So, what exactly is so special about getting dunked into a pool of water in front of a group of people? I myself had recently struggled with the question. I already live a Christian-like life. Many of my friends are Christians. I pray and read my Bible every day. I try to reach out to others in need. I go on missions trips. I know that baptism isn't what saves me. Was it really necessary for me to get baptized?
Romans 6:3-4 gave me my answer: "Or don't you know that all of us who are baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? We were therefore buried with Him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life." For Christians, the process of getting immersed in the water symbolizes dying and being buried with Christ. The other process of baptism, coming out of the water, symbolizes Christ's resurrection. So my baptism would be a symbolic announcement about my faith. And hey, if Jesus was baptized (Matthew 3:13-17), shouldn't we be too?
Once I decided that I should probably be baptized, I began to struggle with my age. See, I'm in high school and still hadn't been baptized. All my Christian friends had been baptized when they were younger. But the good news is that age doesn't matter. What matters is if you understand what baptism is all about. I think if I had been baptized when I was little, I probably wouldn't have understood how important it was.
According to the Bible, Christian baptism is important because it is a step of obedience to God. It's a way for us to make our faith in Christ public and express our commitment to Him. It's a way for us to identify with Christ's death, burial, and resurrection.
A Christian only has two requirements to fulfill before getting baptized. First, you must have trusted Jesus Christ as your Savior from sin. Second, you must truly understand what baptism is; it's a step of obedience in publicly proclaiming your faith in Christ. Oh, and you should want to be baptized. Don't do it out of obligation or peer pressure.
Some churches perform a "sprinkling" baptism where water is just dripped onto your head. An "immersion" baptism means that your whole body goes under water—which is how they did baptisms in the Bible.
Maybe by time you've finished reading this, a new question has popped up: "Should I get baptized?" or "When should I get baptized?" If you desire to be baptized, talk to your parents and/or a pastor at your church. Hopefully, they will be excited about your willingness to take that next step of faith!
Sometimes churches hold baptisms at certain times of year, so you could wait until then. But you can really get baptized at any time. Out on the mission field, sometimes they will baptize people immediately after they become Christians, in any body of water they can find, because these new believers are so excited about being new creations in Christ!
Tell us your baptism story in the comments below!
For Christians, the process of getting baptized is a symbolic, public proclamation of faith in Jesus Christ (Romans 6:3-4). Immersion in the water symbolizes belief in dying and being buried with Christ. Coming out of the water symbolizes belief in Christ's resurrection. Also, since Jesus was baptized (Matthew 3:13-17), shouldn't we be too?

Crazy Rich Asians tells a story of traditions while breaking Hollywood's own troubled tradition with all-Asian casts
Having been squeezed dry, the romantic comedy genre has been lacking as of late. Nevertheless, the straightforward genre is still beloved by movie-goers no matter how many times the same old story seems to be recycled. Crazy Rich Asians takes a formulaic yet easily accessible approach to tell a story that has been sidelined for so many years. Its outline may be familiar but its content is as rich as the film's main family.
Crazy Rich Asians boasts an all-Asian cast, something that hasn't been done since 1993's The Joy Luck Club. Constance Wu brings to life Rachel Chu, a New Yorker who is smart, elegant and extremely relatable. Her boyfriend, played by the dashing Henry Golding, is none other than Nick Young, Singapore's wealthiest bachelor. Without knowledge of her boyfriend's status, Rachel is brought to Singapore where she witnesses just how much money this family truly has.
It doesn't take much time for our lovebirds to go to Singapore. When they arrive, Crazy Rich Asians wastes no time showing just how much expensive things one family can really own. We meet Nick's family filled with obnoxious and snobby rich cousins and siblings. However, none are as intimidating as the family's old-fashioned matriarch Eleanor, played by the magnificent Michelle Yeoh. She disapproves of her son's new girlfriend and would do anything to preserve the family tradition. Together, they create one of cinemas' most dynamic and colorful Asian family.
source: Warner Bros.
And what better way than to celebrate such a cinematic accomplishment than to indulge in luxury. For the first half of the film, director Jon M. Chu is showcasing Asian cuisine, Chinese culture and great wealth. The audience is invited in celebrating the accomplishment by visiting big party boats with swimming pools, private islands with unlimited massages, and all you can eat buffets.
But wealth can only get you so far and that's true even for a film. Luckily, Chu has more to say than just party and diamonds. About halfway through, Crazy Rich Asians steps back to explore its central relationship and Chinese filial piety. It adds an unexpected depth that most rom-coms today often forget, exploring themes of immigration, tradition, and family all within the context of modern-day China. It's impressive just how Chu is able to create within what may be the most restrictive genre in Hollywood. The most striking of all, he subverts the male gaze by sexualizing and filming Asian men's bodies and challenging the old stereotype that Asian men are unattractive.
However, there are moments where the film isn't so clever. Awkwafina's Peik Lin and her family serve only as comic reliefs and never really add anything interesting to the overall story. But it's Henry's cousin Astrid, played by Gemma Chan, that finds herself in the film's only misfire. The attempt to mirror her character's love life with Rachel's never achieves the reciprocal influence it reaches for.
Besides, Chu's goal with Kevin Kwan's book is to create a fun accessible film for everyone to enjoy and for the most part, the romantic comedy genre works magic for him. There's plenty to love elsewhere and rom-com devotees will undoubtedly fall in love with the film's narrative flow. However, even for movie-goers who find themselves sick of the old formula, will find that Crazy Rich Asians offers a unique story told in an exciting and extravagant fashion. If you still find yourself unsure, grab your date or your hopeless romantic friend, stop to get some dumplings, and a fun time will no doubt ensue.
Crazy Rich Asians comes out on August 17.
