"I am a collaborative and nurturing leader", Ricardo Brennand-Campos, commercial Director of Photography
Amazing Workplaces
The Amazing Workplaces team interacted with Ricardo vs. Ricky Brennand-Campos, commercial Director of Photography currently based in Los Angeles. Ricardo speaks about his experience during Covid, his leadership style and his biggest lessons at work.
Tell us about yourself?
I am a Director of Photography in Los Angeles CA. I work closely with a film director in order to manifest their ideas and stories into an image while designing a visual language for the project.
What is your style as a leader?
I believe that I am a collaborative and nurturing leader. I love to hear ideas from all different positions on a film set and like to make sure that credit is given where credit is due. It's important to me that everyone on a job feels heard and supported.

Article will continue after the video
Tell us about your covid experience?
Working in the film industry during COVID was very daunting at first. At first it really felt like things took much longer to accomplish and that in turn jobs cost more. I believe that the film industry is so resilient and adapts very quickly to what's going on around them. After a couple of months, guidelines were put in place, and the industry really came together all in the name of keeping the work going in the safest manner possible.
What's your biggest key lesson learned?
The biggest lesson that I've learnt so far might sound trivial but to me it's become so important. Speak less, and listen more, hear what your coworkers and collaborators are trying to achieve, and figure out the way you can best support that and accelerate the process.

The tips I would share with any entrepreneur starting out are the following:
Don't be discouraged by failure, just make sure you learn from it.
Follow the work of others who are doing what you want to eventually do in the long run.
Try to be as prepared as possible for when the time comes where you are given the opportunity that you've always dreamed of. Success happens when opportunity meets preparedness.
What are some trends you see in the photo space?
I'm no trend forecaster, but I see VFX through the means of shooting blue screen, or XR screens, for the sake of creating worlds that we can't create practically, as something that's here to stay. We all have been craving an escape from the current landscape of things, and being able to create these environments in 3d is huge right now.

Fashion For Better
What Changed For The Better In Women's Life Since The 90's
By Isabelle Araújo de Souza and Beatriz Cristina • Casper Libero Contributors • Culture May 30, 2019 at 10:30am
The Feminist Movement claims for gender equity since its beginning. It has gone through three Waves with different objectives in which one. The first one, back in the late 19th century, fought for political and human rights, like the right to vote, study and work. The second one started in 1960 and was against the patriarchal structure and women discrimination.
The third Wave began at the 1990's decade and is still happening. It requires freedom for women bodies, the end of gender violence and puts different ethnicities together as it is a more inclusive form of feminism. Here comes a list with some of the things that changed for better in women's life since the start of the 90's around the world.
1. World Conference by United Nations Organization
At the first World Conference after the Cold War, the violence against women and women's rights were on the spotlight. Some compromises were assumed by almost 90 countries to eliminate gender inequity, as the creation of laws and strengthening of rights obtained by women.
2. Coalition of Lesbian Activists in Australia
The only non-governmental organization accredited by United Nation fights towards the end of discriminations against lesbians. C.O.A.L. influences the Australian Commonwealth to eradicate the prejudice against women.
3. Quota for women in politics
In 1996, the Brazilian Congress included a quote system in the Electoral Legislation that obligates every party to subscribe at least 20% of women in all the electoral slates. It was developed thinking about women getting more political positions.
4. Decriminalization of the "non virginity"
In 2002 the Brazilian's Civil Code took off the article that used to say that the "non virginity" of women was a reason to justify divorce. Until that year, a man could cancel the marriage if he discovered that the woman wasn't virgin anymore.
5. Maria da Penha Law
One of the most important conquers to Brazilian women, the law named "Maria da Penha" was sanctioned to protect women against domestic violence, including physical, sexual, patrimonial and psychological aggressions. Maria da Penha is actually a real woman who suffered domestic violence from her husband for 23 years. He tried to killed her twice: the first time with a fire gun and the second time by electric shock. She got paraplegic, but became committed to the fight for women's rights and the punishment of her husband, because of that the law honor her.
6. Women assuming important political occupations
Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton is an American lawyer and politician. She was the first woman to run for president in the United States at the 2016 election. Before becoming the Democratic Party candidate, she was Secretary of State of the United States from 2009 to 2013 and Senator of New York from 2001 to 2009.
Dilma Vana Rousseff is a Brazilian economist and politician affiliated with Partido dos Trabalhadores (PT). She was the 36th President of Brazil and the first woman to be in this position from 2011 untill her impeachment in 2016.
Asha-Rose Migiro
Asha-Rose Mtengeti Migiro is a politician, lawyer and teacher born in Tanzania. She was the first woman to be elected the deputy secretary on United Nations and occupied this position between 2007 and 2012.
7. Legal Abortion
Portuguese citizens voted on a plebiscite to decide for or against the decriminalization of the voluntary termination of pregnancy in 2007. With 59% of the votes in favor of the decriminalization, it was taken to the Portugal's Parliament that approved the choice of woman to abort until 10 weeks of gestation. To decide what to do with your own body was a big step on women's rights, and it was spread to other countries, such as Australia in 2008, Spain in 2010 and Uruguay in 2012.
Recently, women from Argentina marched for the right of legal and safe abortion, but Senate decide to maintain abortion as a crime for women who were not rapped or without being in a risk of life.
8. Violence against women becomes illegal in India
In 2013, after the young woman Jyoti Singh Pandey was rapped by six men inside of a bus, a lot of riots claimed by justice and it worked out. Rape is, since that year, considered a heinous crime.
9. Femicide Law
In 2015, the Femicide Law, sanctioned by President Dilma Rousseff, changed the Brazilian penal code by including a new type of homicide: the crime, which is practiced against a woman reasoned by the fact that she is a woman, was characterized as a hate crime. This law recognizes and gives visibility to the discrimination, oppression and systematic violence against women that, in some cases, causes death.
Brazil occupies the fifth position in a rank of femicides' taxes in countries around the world: 4,8 homicides to 100 thousand women according to the World Health Organization.
10. Harassment is a crime in Brazil
Sexual harassment started being considered a crime in Brazil in 2018. When the woman has her freedom hurt, even in cases of divulging intimate photos, the harasser can be punished with up to five years in jail.

CHRONOLOGY OF REMBRANDT'S DOMESTIC LIFE.
JOHN W. MOLLETT, B.A.,
OFFICER D L'INSTRUCTION PUBLIQUE (FRANCE).
THE WORK OF M. VOSMAER, from which the substance of the following treatise has been taken, is not only an exhaustive recapitulation of all that deserves notice in the writings of previous biographers and critics of Rembrandt, it is a perfect systematic exposition of a theory that the biographer has worked out, of the cardinal importance of his subject.
He commences his task by gathering together for comparison all the influences of time, place, and circumstance of which, he maintains, the peculiar genius of Rembrandt was the outcome. Influences local, political, social, and atmospheric, are analyzed with regard to their combination in the artist. Previous revolutions in art are laboriously traced back to their sources, and forward to their share in the production of the school that produced Rembrandt, so that when we are brought at last to the history of the man and his work, we seem to have acquired a prophetic knowledge of both, and to be able by our complete oversight of the past to anticipate the character of his life and mission in art.
The treatment of the actual biography is not less scientifically systematic. The life of Rembrandt is touched upon only in its relation to, or as it is illustrated by his works. Rembrandt was so indefatigable, unceasing a worker that this is not difficult. The works themselves, ranged in order of date, are explained to be illustrative each of its period, and to emanate naturally each from its predecessor in the same way as it leads on to its successors, just as the painters did who lived and worked before, as the unconscious harbingers of the great culminating master. Vosmaer himself uses a figure which explains this theory when he says that the predecessors of Rembrandt may be ranged along the radii of concentric circles of which he is the luminous centre.
A history of the school of art radiating in the same manner onwards from Rembrandt would be equally interesting.
The reduction into a small compass of Vosmaer's totum teres atque rotundum, is a task that differs widely from that of merely extracting from the work of an ordinary biographer the chief heads of interest. To retain the whole argument, selecting details for omission, and to reduce the treatise to the few pages it now consists of, without destroying the chain here and there, has been impossible; but the imperfect result must be read, like a compendious text-book of a science, with a constant recollection that each illustration deserves to be amplified, and the whole merely provides, as it were, pegs to hang additional congruous matter upon.
A number of false reports and legends are dissipated by Vosmaer's accuracy of detail, and especially he has aimed at clearing the reputation of the Master from the reproach of sordid avarice and vice that some of his biographers have attached to him. He has given their proper prominence to Rembrandt's indefatigable industry and passionate devotion to his art, and to his longing to collect round him other men's works, and his magnificence in the acquisition of art objects, indicating aesthetic appreciations far in advance of his rank and period.
The treatise should be read with constant reference to the chronological tables at the end of the book. In following Vosmaer's system these will admirably correct any lapses in the argument arising, in spite of all care to the contrary, in the process of condensation.
The limits of the work have not permitted enough to be said of Rembrandt's activity as a painter of landscape, but as this part of his art life is regarded by Vosmaer as distinct from the general story of his progress, and is treated in a chapter by itself, and not brought into the chronological narrative, its absence does not destroy the continuity of the history. An interesting light that it would have thrown upon Rembrandt's personal history is the description it involves of his sketching-tours in Holland and his habit of incessant watchfulness, as he walked on, sketchbook in hand, to record with the wonderful facility that he alone possessed everything that interested him in Nature.
But Rembrandt's fidelity and devotion to Nature are the key-note of the whole work, and it is in virtue of this quality of truth and love, combined as it was with unparalleled power and untiring industry, that his biographer regards him as the greatest and most admirable of painters.
J. W. M.
March, 1879.
REMBRANDT VAN RŸN
REMBRANDT'S BIRTH-PLACE.
THE CITY OF LEYDEN IN the seventeenth century was rich and prosperous, and in all Holland second in extent only to Amsterdam; beautiful, clean and pleasant, abounding in handsome houses, intersected with canals of fast running water, its broad streets planted with trees, and overlooking the Rhine. Its houses, of red brick lined with white masonry, shadowed the pathways with their projecting gables; and their ornamentation of arches, festoons, and medallions carved with quaint and heraldic devices, completed a style of architecture that was characteristic and charming. Above these houses rose a large and splendid Town Hall, two beautiful gothic churches, and a number of buildings originally dedicated to religious, but at that time to secular uses.
The traveller arriving from the south or south-west, and approaching the city by the White Gate, had the Rhine on his left hand, and low-lying meadows on his right; as he entered the Gate, all Leyden, with its numerous peaked gables and turrets, and its lofty ramparts studded with bastions and windmills, lay before him. He passed the wooden bridge, and a low gate flanked by two tall towers admitted him into the city. Advancing now between the ramparts and a row of houses, he entered a street called the Weddesteeg—or, as we should say, Water Lane—passing two windmills on the ramparts on his left. Much controversy has arisen respecting these windmills. An imaginative biographer—Houbraken—states that Rembrandt was born in


This tour will bring you in a virtual time warp, authentic 19th century Principalia Mansions and original Bahay na Bato (Stone Houses), stand resplendent around a cobblestone plaza and streets paying tribute to the magnificent craftsmanship of our forefathers. Walking along the cobblestone streets or riding one of the caruajes (horse- drawn carriages), one has to constantly remind one's self that he is in the present somehow trapped in the past; not just peeking through a looking glass but walking, touching, living amongst history's silent witnesses.The structures, at least 100 years old, are restored to its former grandeur creating a museum of Filipino architecture. Located in Bagac, Bataan, significant in Philippine history for the World War II Death March, this "village" of heritage houses is designed to replicate Hispanic town settlements. Lunch at the resort. Enjoy the sea breeze after lunch then return back to Manila.
The experience of life in the countryside is what this resort (formerly a plantation) offers. Visitors are welcomed with songs and guitar music by rural folk in traditional costumes and are brought into the resort proper in a cart drawn by a water buffalo. The original plantation house has been preserved and beside it is a chapel and museum displaying a collection of religious art from the personal collection of the owner of the plantation. The farm produces rice and coconut. There is a wide and green river for rafting, a village where residents graciously show off their homes and weekend presentations of traditional dances and music. Lunch is served by the flowing stream down the foot of a man-made mini waterfalls.
Claimed as one of the most beautiful natural harbors in the Philippines, Puerto Galera in Mindoro is one of the most popular beach destinations in the country for its white sand cove beaches, forest and mountains. In spite of the island's attractiveness to local and foreign visitors, and its closeness to Manila, it has preserved its natural character and charm with well-kept, simple and laidback accommodations.
Manila and Cebu are the Philippines' main cities and economic hubs. Manila, the capital of the country, is not only a business and government offices center but also home to historical sites. There's the Walled City in Fort Santiago, where you can retrace the footsteps of the country's National Hero, Dr. Jose Rizal, before he was shot. Cebu, on the other hand, is rich in history, being the oldest city of the Philippines.
The premier city of the Philippines, Manila, is a vital stopping point in Southeast Asia. The city was also a former Malay settlement, founded by the Spanish Conquistador, Miguel Lopez de Legaspi in June 1571. Then it was known as the "Distinguished and Ever Loyal City of Manila".
Tagaytay is a picturesque city perched on a ridge 750 meters above sea level and overlooking Taal Lake and the Taal Volcano Island. Taal Volcano is the lowest volcano in the world and one of the most active. The lake and the volcano are sometimes described as "an island within a lake within an island within a lake.
Taal Volcano Trekking tour is a soft adventure tour to Taal Volcano, the country's smallest but one of the most active volcano. Head on a morning departure from Manila to a lake shore town called Talisay. The short drive from Tagaytay down to the lake is a breathtaking experience in a descending narrow road that winds to a jump-off point to the island volcano.
Pagsanjan is a prime attraction in Laguna province, which is only two hours drive southeast of Manila. The drive to Pagsanjan passes through a rich agricultural region of rice and coconut plantations; the University of the Philippines' College of Agriculture; the International Rice Research Institute; Calamba town, the birthplace of the national hero, Dr. Jose Rizal; and the fertile volcanic plains at the foot of two famous and mystical mountains, Mounts Makiling and Banahaw.
Located in nearby Laguna province and a one and a half hour's drive from Manila, this subterranean valley was formed thousands of years ago during a volcanic eruption. It is enveloped by rain forests of primeval beauty with age-old trees, giant ferns, wild orchids and mineral springs with varying degrees of temperature.
Known as "The Rock", Corregidor is a tiny island-fortress in the mouth of Manila Bay. It is one of the glorious names in World War II history and is now a national shrine to the valor of the Filipino and American soldiers who defended it.

Theatre review - The Ladykillers, Theatre by the Lake, Keswick
Ken Powell
Keswick's Theatre by the Lake (TBTL) has opened the summer season in the main house with Graham Linehan's stage adaptation of the Ealing comedy classic 'The Ladykillers'.
Ironically, given the gentle mocking and stereotyping of British characteristics, the original movie script was written by an American, William Rose. Nevertheless, the quintessential Britishness of decency and gentlemanly conduct - even among criminals - shines through, though it proves to be the undoing of the gang.
This play is a textbook slapstick farce with a gang of robbers fall foul of a series of mishaps and, of course, their landlady - the frail old eccentric Mrs Wilberforce. As such, the production is ideal both for older generations who remember the golden era of slapstick and younger ones too who may be experiencing 'grown up' theatre for the first time. There's the occasional moment of mild swearing and ultimately the comedy is a black one - talk of murder and deaths abound in the second act - but the overall feeling is one of gentle fun and great silliness which will be appreciated by young and old alike.
I'm of a generation which grew up on the great Ealing comedies (repeating on just three TV channels) and, though I have not seen the classic 1955 movie since I was a boy, I found large parts of the story coming back to me with fondness, as I watched the stage production. It is early days with the run and some comic timings need a little polishing (so vital with slapstick to avoid humour falling flat) but the cast were such fun you couldn't help but fall a little in love with all of their characters. Most lovable perhaps was that of One-Round, played perfectly by Eric Potts, who constantly hasn't a clue what's going (or even what his fake name is) but is the most decent and kind of all the gang. I look forward to seeing the actor in two more productions at TBTL this year.
For a little bit of nostalgic silliness then, 'The Ladykillers' is as good a place as any to go and a fun way to start what will hopefully be a cracking summer for us all.
'The Ladykillers' is showing at Theatre by the Lake's Main House until 30 October. To find out more call the Box Office on 017687 74411 or visit www.theatrebythelake.com.

New Fund Launched to help Calgary's Artists and Arts Workers
When mass gatherings were banned on March 12, 2020, arts organizations, artists, and arts workers were immediately affected. In addition to being one of the first sectors to feel the devastating effects of COVID-19, the arts sector will also be one of the last to recover.
"The pandemic has reminded us how much artists enrich our lives by providing music, stories, images, design, and new ideas that entertain us and help us stay connected, and emotionally engaged," says Calgary Arts Foundation Chair Dean Prodan in a statement. "The Cultural Vitality Fund has been created to support these individuals and to set the groundwork for more creativity in our city and a more diverse economy."
"Throughout COVID-19, people have really leaned on the arts," adds Calgary Arts Development President & CEO Patti Pon in a statement. "During many tragic events and catastrophes, artists are some of the first to step up and bring people together to raise funds for those in need. This time artists and arts workers themselves have been catastrophically affected. The Cultural Vitality Fund is one way to help ensure that artists and arts workers make it through the pandemic so they can continue to be there for us when we need them most."
Up to $200,000 raised through the Cultural Vitality Fund will be matched by the Calgary Foundation with the total funds raised going to Calgary Arts Development to fund individual artists and arts workers through project grants and other programs.
"From those who conduct online classes to those who stage virtual live concerts, artists help lift our spirits and keep us connected during these months of self-isolation and social distancing," says Eva Friesen, President & CEO of Calgary Foundation, in a statement. "We are happy to support a fund that will help artists and arts workers get through the current challenges and thrive post-pandemic."
Calgary Arts Foundation is also grateful to the RBC Foundation who came on as one of the first major supporters of this fund.
"Individual artists provide the talent, creativity, skills, and vision that fuel cultural vibrancy in our city," says Jerilynn Daniels, RBC Regional Director, Community Marketing and Citizenship, in a statement. "We are committed to supporting endeavours that empower organizations to make a difference and inspire others, and we couldn't think of a better way than by supporting individual artists through the Cultural Vitality Fund."
September has been declared the Month of the Artist by the Alberta Government. People can show their support of the wonderful contribution artists make to our city by making an online donation to the Cultural Vitality Fund at calgaryartsfoundation.ca. Gifts of any amount are appreciated and all donors will receive a tax receipt.
Funds raised through this campaign will be granted to Calgary Arts Development through The City of Calgary to support their grant investment programs for individual artists.

Hungry black holes trapped in an intimate dance feast on the remnants of a galactic merger
A nearby galaxy merger contains two massive black holes that appear to be the closest pair ever detected at multiple wavelengths, according to a new study.
The two galaxies, collectively known as UGC 4211, are located just 500 million light-years from Earth in the constellation of Cancer and are in the final stages of merging. Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Array (ALMA), an international observatory in Chile, scientists have discovered two black holes feeding on the by-products of a galactic merger, the research team said in a statement. (will open in a new tab).
When these supermassive black holes gobble up nearby matter, they emit bright jets and winds, creating a bright active galactic nucleus that ALMA can detect. Recent observations show that the two black holes are only 750 light-years apart.

"ALMA is unique in that it can see through large columns of gas and dust and achieve very high spatial resolution to see objects very close together," said Michael Koss, lead author of the study and senior scientist at Eureka Scientific. statement. "Our study has identified one of the closest pairs of black holes in galaxy mergers, and since we know that galaxy mergers are much more common in the distant universe, these binary black holes may also be much more common than previously thought."
Galactic mergers in the distant universe, while common, can be difficult to observe. Thus, detecting a nearby galaxy merger such as UGC 4211 with an active pair of supermassive black holes could help detect the gravitational waves generated by these cataclysms.
"There may be many pairs of growing supermassive black holes at the centers of galaxies that we have not yet been able to identify," said Ezequiel Treister, study co-author and astronomer at the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile. statement. "If this is the case, then in the near future we will observe frequent gravitational wave phenomena caused by mergers of these objects throughout the universe."
To get a complete picture of UGC 4211, the researchers used data from other telescopes, including the Chandra X-ray Observatory, the Hubble Space Telescope, the Very Large Telescope, and the V.M. Keka. Together, the data provided insight into the galactic merger from multiple wavelengths.
"Each wavelength tells a different part of the story," Traister said in a statement. "While ground-based optical images showed us the entire merging galaxy, Hubble showed us high-resolution nuclear regions. X-ray observations have shown that the system has at least one active galactic nucleus. And ALMA showed us the exact location of these two growing hungry supermassive black holes.
"All of this data together has given us a clearer picture of how galaxies like ours came to be the way they are, and the way they will be in the future," he added.
Our Milky Way galaxy is on a collision course with another spiral galaxy called Andromeda. The collision is still in its early stages and is predicted to occur in about 4.5 billion years.
"What we have just studied is the source at the very last stage of the collision, so what we see portends that [Milky Way-Andromeda] merger, and also gives us insight into the relationship between mergers and the growth of black holes and, ultimately, the formation of gravitational waves, "Koss said in a statement.
Their findings were published Monday (January 9) in The Astrophysical Journal Letters. (will open in a new tab); The researchers also presented the work at the 241st meeting of the American Astronomical Society, which will be held this week in Seattle and virtually.

Q: SQL Server login failure in middle of application run I have an application that suddenly started throwing the following exception:

System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Login failed for user 'username'.

The username and password are correct and the app does some queries/inserts using the same login before throwing the exception.
What are some other reasons a login can start failing?  Does SQL Server have a default maximum number of connections that may have been reached?  I'm using LINQ to SQL - does the fact that I'm reusing a DataContext to insert multiple rows of data rather than creating a new one each time have any relevant consequences?

A: Using the same DataContext for multiple sequential operations is just fine, but make sure you're not sharing the DataContext among multiple threads.  If, for example, you're creating an ASP.NET application, make sure that each new request uses its own DataContext.

A: I think the issue was with the way I was creating DataContexts - I was keeping one around in the class and creating a new method-local one every time I did an update (see here for more details).  I just refactored the code to create a new DataContext for each transaction and the error went away.

Thirty if I had to identify with an age.
I have an undergraduate degree in Computer Science and my MFA in Illustration.
2012 was my first commission but I had no idea what I was doing ultimately.
I was a programmer focusing mainly on systems design and implementation. I also worked in food and beverage through college at a restaurant and hotel.
Currently, I'm a freelance illustrator full time. My studio space is about 35 minutes away from home where I'm working on an illustration system for a really cool educational music product which will have a ton of characters and world building. I'm also juggling smaller tasks with long term clients as well as some personal animation projects with some friends.
I've been trying to stay inspired by things a little less connected to my industry lately. Jamie Hewlett is very inspiring to me the way he implements alternative and bizarre fashion into his work. It reminds me to look at diverse references. I'm also always blown away with the energy and grit in Pam Wishbow's work with such a simple color palette. And basically, anyone that worked on the new Spider-verse movie.

Illustration is not a career met with an easy point of entry. You don't graduate and get a job at a company like you may as an accountant. Be prepared to have to pave your own way and put in the work. I spent 4-5 years putting in 18 hour days because I knew I was working from a deficit (not having practiced drawing my whole life I had a lot of catching up to do) but it worked. Drawing is a skill learned, not naturally gifted. Practice is the only way to get good.

Notre Dame – Golden Dome rout
Home // 1984 Season // Notre Dame
Notre Dame - 1984 Season
Post your own memories
September 22nd – at Notre Dame Notre Dame 55, Colorado 14
Colorado traveled to the hallowed grounds of South Bend, Indiana, for their third game of the 1984 season carrying heavy hearts. Thoughts of Ed Reinhardt had to be on the minds of the Buffs as they played Notre Dame beneath "Touchdown Jesus" for the first – and only – time in school history.
Notre Dame, as had been the case in 1983, came into the matchup against the Buffs unranked. Embattled Notre Dame head coach Gerry Faust had the Irish off to a 1-1 start, but this was hardly cause for celebration in South Bend. Notre Dame had been ranked seventh in the nation in the 1984 preseason Associated Press poll, but had promptly dropped out of the poll after falling 23-21 to Purdue in the season opener. The Irish did not look much better the following week against Michigan State, falling behind 17-3 in the first half before rallying to win, 24-20. Though the 1984 Colorado/Notre Dame game would be played at South Bend, there seemed some hope for the struggling Buffs to make a game of it against a less than dominant Fighting Irish squad.
For Colorado, though, 1984 was not like 1983, when the Buffs were riding high coming into the Notre Dame contest. The previous season, the Buffs were 2-1 and brimming with optimism, but were humbled by Notre Dame at home, 27-3. The Buffs in 1984 were 0-2, and had little to be optimistic about.
The scene was set for disaster, and the Buffs did not disappoint, playing their worst game since the Nebraska rout the year before.
By the end of the first quarter, it was 21-0. By halftime, it was 38-0, Notre Dame.
Before the Buffs scored late in the third quarter, the score was up 52-0. The 55-14 final could have been much worse. The Irish played three quarterbacks and even tried out three kickers. Fourth stringers were on the field at the end. The Notre Dame crowd cheered and cheered – a rare occurrence during the Gerry Faust era.
In the "for what its worth" category, on Colorado's third possession, quarterback Steve Vogel completed an 18-yard pass to Loy Alexander. With the completion, Vogel passed Gale Weidener for the top spot on the all-time list in career passing yards at Colorado. Vogel now had 3,150 yards, surpassing the only other 3,000+ yard career for the Buffs, put up by Weidener (1959-61). It was only fitting for the day that the 18-yard completion came on third down … and still did not pick up enough yardage for a first down.
The record for Vogel came before the quarterback made an early exit. Vogel hurt his neck after completing only three-of-seven passes for 44 yards. Vogel's injury just added him to the Colorado list of walking wounded. Tight end Jon Embree went out in the game's first series of the game with a deep thigh bruise.
The injury situation for the 0-3 Buffs was now past critical.
Coming into the Notre Dame game, Colorado was already forced to start six players who had not started against Michigan State just two weeks earlier. A preseason all-conference pick at linebacker, Barry Remington, had played little since the opener. Fellow linebacker Dan McMillen underwent orthoscopic surgery the week before the Notre Dame game and was out indefinitely. The secondary was so devastated that four new starters were contemplated. The situation was dire for the paper-thin depth of the Buffs.
For his part, Colorado head coach Bill McCartney refused to use the injuries, or Ed Reinhardt, as an excuse for the blowout. "I just want to set the record straight", McCartney told reporters after the game. "We didn't come here and hang our heads on the basis of what happened last week. We were emotionally ready."
The scoreboard suggested otherwise.
– By the end of his career, quarterback Steve Vogel owned most of the career passing records at Colorado. Vogel finished his career with 309 completions on 688 attempts, for 3,912 yards, 27 touchdowns and 33 interceptions. Most of Vogel's career numbers were eclipsed by the mid-1990's, as either Kordell Stewart or Koy Detmer assumed the top spots in career passing statistics. Joel Klatt finally tied the career interception mark in 2005; it was finally passed by Cody Hawkins in 2009 – 25 seasons after Vogel hung up his cleats.
– Notre Dame would not take advantage of its rout of Colorado. A mid-season three-game losing streak and an Aloha Bowl loss to SMU would doom Notre Dame to a second consecutive 7-5 season. A 5-6 record in 1985 would bring about the end of the five-year tenure of Irish head coach Gerry Faust.

Q: Is `document.write` suitable for finding the element associated with the currently running script? How can I find the script element associated with the currently running script? I'm only interested in scripts inside the body of the document, not in the head (or elsewhere).
Here is what I have so far, it seems to work alright. Are there any possible pitfalls I'm not thinking of?
function getCurrentScriptElement() {
    var placeholderId = 'placeholder-' + Math.random(),
        script, placeholder;
    document.write('<br id="' + placeholderId + '">');
    placeholder = document.getElementById(placeholderId);
    script = placeholder.previousSibling;
    placeholder.parentNode.removeChild(placeholder);
    return script;
}

The use case I have in mind for this involves scripts that need to inject content at the same place in the document where the script tag occurs, so delayed loading will not be an issue. In other words I will only be calling this function in places where it's appropriate, it's not going to be exposed as part of an API or anything.
I'm also aware of the problem with document.write and XHTML, and am not worried about it in this case (so far).

My previous attempt looked something like this:
function getCurrentScriptElement() {
    var scripts = document.getElementsByTagName('script');
    return scripts[scripts.length - 1];
}

But, as we see in this question, this could easily fail if another script has been injected into the document.

I also found document.currentScript in this WHATWG spec. It doesn't seem to be widely supported at this point. There's an interesting shim for document.currentScript that takes another route... The script triggers an error, catches it, inspects the stack trace to find the URL of the script, and then finds the script element with the matching src attribute.
It's a clever solution, but it apparently won't work in IE, and it would break if several scripts use identical URLs.

Ideally, I would like to find a solution that gives the same result as the top code sample (no extra requirements), but doesn't rely on document.write. Is this possible? If not, is this code fairly safe assuming it's used correctly (only during page load, not XHTML)?

Edit: See this answer for another potential use case, and details on why a br element is used for the placeholder.

A: OP has a good solution to a tricky problem. Yet, here are few minor suggestions to improve it.
The function should use document.currentScript when available. It works well regardless of situation. Available in FireFox +4, Chrome +29, and Opera +16.
With IE 6-10 the script.readyState can be used to emulate document.currentScript. It also appears to work well regardless of situation.
To avoid problems, the function should exit when document.readyState == "complete" or even at the earlier "interactive" stage depending on the code.  document.currentScript appears to stop working when "complete". However, document.write stops at "interactive", i.e., the tag writing method of finding scripts will fail with a lazy loaded script.
The script async attribute should be checked before using document.write().  Scripts marked async are detached from the document and document.write() method will not work as expected.
OP's code writes a <p> tag, but a style tag appeared to work better with scripts in both the body and head ... and without side effects.
The random number tag ID doesn't seem to serve much purpose since the element is removed. Might be better to go with a GUID constant that's reused.
UPDATE:
I've updated my code sample below to illustrate a way to do this without writing tags. It appears to work fine with Chrome, FireFox, Opera, and IE 5-10. Returns the correct value regardless of injected scripts and script attributes (defer and async). The difficult part is what to do about IE +11? Microsoft removed script.readyState in IE11 without providing an alternative. One workaround is to use "MutationObserver" to look ahead for scripts. In IE these events events happen each time before a script is executed (as opposed to onload which happens afterward). And this works well except when there are externally loaded scripts with defer or async attributes set.  Async scripts are especially difficult because they can execute anytime and not always in the same order (my observation).
Anyway, I thought I'd post this code with the hope it might provide a starting point and help others out.

        var observer, current, nodes;

        // IE+11 - untested with other browsers.
        if (!document.currentScript && typeof MutationObserver=='function') {

                if (document.readyState=='complete') observer.disconnect();
                mutations.forEach(function(mutation) {
                    nodes = mutation.addedNodes;
                    if (nodes.length && nodes[0].nodeName=='SCRIPT') {
                        current = nodes[0];
                    }
                });
            });
            observer.observe(window.document, {childList: true, subtree: true});
        }

        // PUBLIC
        return function() {

            if (document.readyState=='complete') return;

            // CHROME+29, FIREFOX+4, OPERA+16
            if (document.currentScript) return document.currentScript;

            var i, s=document.getElementsByTagName('SCRIPT');

            // MSIE+5-10
            if (s[0].readyState)
                for(i=0; i<s.length; i++)
                    if (s[i].readyState=='interactive') return s[i];

            // IE+11
            if (current) return current;

            // BEST GUESS
            return s[s.length-1];

        }

    })()

A: If your script isn't inline (e.g. it's loaded via '<script src>', Throw an error in a try block then check it's stack trace in the catch block. You'll be able to determine the file name. You can then use 'querySelector('[src="'+filename+'"]')' to find the tag and insert your content before it or it's sibling.

A: Just another idea: according to w3schools the <script> tag supports global HTML attributes.
Using any of the global attribute (id, class, title) You can distinguish between the script tags used, although in that case you have to pre-define the id and class.

A: Assuming your script isn't deferred, you can just do:
var allScripts = document.getElementsByTagName("script"),
    currentScript = allScripts[allScripts.length-1];

The Jung-White Letters
Edited by Ann Conrad Lammers and Adrian Cunningham, with consulting editor Murray Stein
The Jung-White Letters charts fifteen years of correspondence between C. G. Jung and Victor White, an English Dominican priest and theologian. The dialogue between the two provides valuable insights into the development of Jung's thought and the relationship between psychology and religion.
Jung hoped that his correspondence with White would help him to reinterpret the classic Christian symbols, and White sought Jung's support with his project to integrate analytical psychology into Catholic theology. Although both Jung and White were committed to a productive collaboration, the letters trace a trajectory toward a crisis of misunderstanding and betrayal, culminating in a sharpening of disagreements after publication of Jung's Answer to Job.
The letters are presented with attention to authenticity, and Jung's previously published letters have been restored to their original style. The text is helpfully annotated throughout with historical, literary, and personal references.
A wealth of editorial material is also included to set the letters in context, including an authoritative memoir of Victor White. Jung's engagement with White was an essential dialogue that contributed importantly to Jung's late writings, forcing him to refine his critique of classical theology. This volume will be of great interest to Jungian analysts, psychoanalysts and psychotherapists, and anyone interested in investigating the complex relationship between analytical psychology and religion.

Thinking of Becoming a Yogi?
It is not hard to be drawn to the allure of yoga. Promises of instant zen, toned body, lengthy limbs – it is enough to get you to sign up for a class pass instantly.
But before you buy, make sure you shop around for the best studio that fits your needs. We suggest trying a few classes at different studios before you commit. Because let's be honest, you want to feel nothing but love in the studio you select.
Do you connect with the teacher?
Do you like the style?
Let's face it, convenience is key to consistency. If you have to drive more than 15 minutes to attend a class, you might just opt out. Choose a studio that is close to home or work, to lessen the effort of getting to class.
You must connect with the teacher! If not, you might find their every word leads you closer towards angry than ahhhh! Connecting with a teacher may be as simple as loving their playlist or as technical as knowing specific ques for proper body alignment.
With so many different styles of yoga to practice, explore them all and often. Vinyasa, yin, restorative, hot – the list goes on and on. Don't just stop at one!
Now that you have a path to select your perfect yoga studio, let's clarify a few myths that still might be holding you back from starting your yoga practice.
Yoga is not a religious practice or cult.
Yoga is not a superpower.
Yoga is not a competition.
Yoga is not about the poses.
You don't have to chant, burn incense, or change who you are.
Not convinced? Check out Bad Yogi Official, Erin Motz, as she debunks a few more myths for Yoga Journal, about starting a yoga practice and becoming a yogi! Together, we will get you on your mat.

Since Argentina recuperated economically, an unmistakable revival in the tourist sector has been evident. Many new options for dining and accommodation have been, and are still, springing up providing modern travelers with a bevy of affordable choices. Captivating cities, far-reaching plains, glistening glaciers and lush, tropical jungles afford a large collection of options for things to do. Now growing more in popularity and appealing to an enormous number of tourists are golf vacations to Argentina. Praiseworthy scenery defines Argentina golf courses with geographical features creating incredulous environments golfers can't resist. From the plains to the mountains, there are more courses for golf in Argentina than anywhere else in South America.
The Europeans first introduced golf in Argentina in the later part of the nineteenth century. With a vast number of resorts on the rise, more and more of them encapsulated golf into their facilities. Tourists planning golf vacations to Argentina should note that the seasons are opposite to seasons in the northern hemisphere and weather is an important factor when it comes to playing golf. December through March is summer, and also peak season for travel in Argentina. During this time you'll want to book ahead to ensure tee times are set. June through October is the winter season and though golf is possible, the weather will not always cooperate.
There are several excellent regions ideal for Argentina golf holidays. When looking for an assortment of courses to choose from, the regions to look at are Bariloche east of Puerto Madryn and Buenos Aires. While most tourist destinations in Argentina offer golf facilities, both Buenos Aires and Bariloche provide the most exceptional choices for avid golfers. Though a step below the aforementioned, Tierra del Fuego and Iguazu are two other terrific choices when looking for Argentina golf courses to play.
There are several ways to arrange playing on Argentina golf courses. If you want to eat, sleep and breath golf during your holiday, think about flying to a few different destinations to try several distinct courses. Most major flights to Argentina fly into the capital of Buenos Aires. From Buenos Aires, there are many affordable choices for flying nationally. Flights from Buenos Aires to Iguazu Falls can be found fairly inexpensively, as can flights from Buenos Aires to Patagonia where a trip to Tierra del Fuego is easily arranged. If interrupting precious golf time with flights isn't your style, choosing one of the excellent golf resorts in Argentina to stay at can be equally gratifying.
Argentina golf resorts are typically flanked by incredibly beautiful surroundings like majestic deserts, towering mountains and vast oceans. Golf packages often include many exclusive amenities such as transportation to and from the course, or courses, if necessary, pro shop bargains and discounts, golf lessons and equipment rental. Even if you're not traveling on a vacation package, most courses offer easy access to many services and facilities. Resorts are often well known for providing a number of luxurious amenities for relaxing after the game like elegant clubhouses, grand spas, swimming pools, fine dining restaurants and high class smoke shops for an all-encompassing and truly relaxing vacation.
Some of the top Argentina golf courses to note in Buenos Aires are the very challenging Los Pingüinos Country Club, the famous Jockey Club and Olivos Golf Club, home of the annual Masters Cup. Choices in Patagonia golf courses definitely worth exploring include Ushuaia Golf Club and sublimely picturesque Llao Llao Resort & Golf. The beautiful, naturally landscaped Salta Polo Club, and the Jockey Club de Tucuman skirting the Cerro San Javier, are two of the best Argentina golf courses to choose from in the northern region. It's evident that no matter what area you travel to, you'll be spoiled with choices. Golf in Argentina is one of the most exciting and fast-rising outdoor sports taking top spot on many holiday rosters.

Q: Show existence of linear transformation from subset to subspace embedded in $\mathbb{F}_2^n$ Assume I have a subset $X$ (not necessarily a subspace) of $\mathbb{F}_2^n$, of size $\leq 2^{n-1}$. It seems likely to me that there should exist a bijective linear transformation taking $X$ to a subset $Y$ contained in the $(n -1)$-dimensional subspace $V \subset \mathbb{F}_2^n$, being isomorphic to $\mathbb{F}_2^{n-1}$ (i.e. $V$ is the embedding of $\mathbb{F}_2^{n-1}$ inside $\mathbb{F}_2^n$). However, I'm finding this hard to argue, since almost all statements I've found that could be somewhat relevant for this is based on linear transformations between sub-spaces or affine spaces.
As per Marc van Leeuwen's comment below, an alternative statement of the problem, which is probably clearer, is the following. Assume $X$ spans the entire space $\mathbb{F}_2^n$ (since if not, the solution is trivial). What I'm looking for then, is a linear map $f$ whose restriction to $X$ is injective and equal to $Y$.
Any idea how one might attack this? I've been thinking about some sort of counting argument and the pigeonhole-principle, but I'm finding it tricky. A non-constructive proof would be just fine.

A: What you want to prove appears not to be true.
Note that if $X$ spans the whole space but one wants (as you do) to obtain that $Y=f(X)$ does not span the whole space, then $f$ cannot itself be injective (hence for dimension reasons bijective) since linear maps preserve spans. dimension reasons $f$ must have nonzero kernel. By just requiring the restriction of $f$ to $X$ to be injective, you want all elements of $X$ to be non-congruent modulo the kernel of $f$.
This means that the difference (equivalently sum) of any two distinct elements of$~X$ is forbidden to be in $\ker f$. But by an appropriate choice of $X$ one can arrange that this excludes every nonzero vector from $\ker f$, forcing $f$ to be injective which we saw it cannot be. For $n=3$, four vectors only give $\binom42=6$ differences which cannot exhaust $7$ nonzero vectors, however with $n=4$ one has ample space for a counterexample; even just $6$ well chosen vectors will do. Concretely take $V=\Bbb F_2^4$ and
$$X=\{(0,0,0,0),~(0,0,0,1),~(0,0,1,0),~(0,1,0,1),~(1,0,0,0),~(1,1,1,0)\}.
$$
One can easily check that all $15$ nonzero elements of the vector space can be written as a sum of two of these vectors. This means that any nonzero subspace contains the difference of two vectors, and so for a linear map $f:V\to V$ to restrict injectively to $X$, its kernel can contain only the zero vector. But then $f$ is an isomorphism and $Y=f(X)$ spans all of $V$; it is not contained in any subspace of dimension$~3$.
