De 98e editie van de wielerwedstrijd Ronde van Vlaanderen''' werd gehouden op 6 april 2014. De wedstrijd maakt deel uit van de UCI World Tour 2014. De Zwitser Fabian Cancellara was titelverdediger en slaagde erin ook de editie 2014 te winnen, vóór Greg Van Avermaet en Sep Vanmarcke.

Parcours
Ten opzichte van de editie van 2013 werd het parcours grondig gewijzigd. De drie (steeds kleiner wordende) lussen met de Oude Kwaremont en de Paterberg werden veranderd. Toch moest de Oude Kwaremont opnieuw drie keer beklommen worden en de Paterberg nog twee keer. Maar in de laatste grote ronde kregen de Koppenberg, de Taaienberg en de Kruisberg een meer prominente rol. De start vond opnieuw op de Markt in Brugge plaats. De finish lag voor het derde jaar in Oudenaarde.

Hellingen
In totaal moesten de renners 17 hellingen bedwingen:

Kasseistroken
Naast de hellingen krijgen de renners ook nog 6 vlakke kasseistroken voor de wielen geschoven.

Dorp van de Ronde
Dit jaar is Heule, deelgemeente van Kortrijk, het dorp van de Ronde. Ter ere van Gerard Debaets, tweevoudig winnaar van de Ronde van Vlaanderen in  1924 en  1927.

Національні парки Пакистану створені для захисту і збереження визначних пейзажів і дикої природи в природному стані. Захист і охорона довкілля в Пакистані була вперше включена до Конституції 1973 року, проте Постанова про охорону довкілля була прийнята тільки в 1983 році. Відповідно до законодавства «Сучасних охоронюваних територій», національні парки можуть використовуватися для наукових досліджень, освіти та відпочинку. У них забороняється будівництво доріг і будинків відпочинку, очищення землі для сільськогосподарських потреб, забруднення води, використання вогнепальної зброї, знищення диких тварин. Адмініструванням парків займаються такі державні відомства: Міністерство з охорони довкілля і Управління з біорізноманіття.

Станом на 2010 рік у Пакистані налічується 25 національних парків, 19 з них знаходяться під контролем держави, а інші знаходяться в приватних руках. Найстаріший національний парк Лал Суханра в районі Бахавалпура, був створений в 1972 році. Це єдиний національний парк, який існував і до оголошення незалежності країни, крім того, це єдиний біосферний заповідник Пакистану. Останній з парків, Кала Чітта, був створений у 2009 році. Центральний Каракорум у Гілгіт-Балтістані є найбільшим національним парком країни, охоплюючи територію загальною площею близько 1 390 100 гектарів. Найменший національний парк — Айюб, загальною площею близько 931 гектарів.

У список включені національні парки за даними міністерства з охорони довкілля Пакистану, впорядковані за алфавітом.
Парки мають різну категорію МСОП, деякі парки не мають категорії, низки парків немає в базі даних особливо-охоронюваних природних територій. Дана інформація зазначається в останньому стовпці таблиці разом з посиланням на парк у базі даних. Площа парків наведена за джерелами, пов'язаним з міністерством, і може відрізнятися від площі в базі даних МСОП.

Bill said… "An outstanding work of scholarship on how our war on drugs, our harsh mandatory minimum sentencing, and racism have converged to create a caste system in this country very much like the one under Jim Crow segregation laws.

Bill said… "There's the pious Ross Douthat, a believer in the dogma of the essential Christian experience, and the political Ross Douthat who seems, throughout this book, to be unsure about making peace with a Republican party whose base embraces an absolutist theology… The suspense of where [he's] going to come out is worth the price of the book."

Rita Dove

The Trouble Ball
Martin Espada
Bill said… "You can't read any of his 16 books of poems, translations, and essays, including, most recently, The Trouble Ball, without discovering a man who understands life as struggle.

Winner Take All Politics: How Washington Made the Rich Richer — and Turned Its Back on the Middle Class
Jacob Hacker and Paul Pierson
Bill said… "Gross [economic] inequality didn't just happen. It was politically engineered by powerful players in Washington and on Wall Street. Read how they did it in this book by two of the country's top political scientists, drawn to a mystery every bit as puzzling as a crime drama."

Bill said… "[Haidt's] ideas are controversial but they make you think.

The Righteous Mind Book Excerpt
Days of Destruction, Days of Revolt
Chris Hedges, Joe Sacco
Bill said… "For all his power of expression, sometimes words fail even Chris Hedges, and a picture can say more in a single frame than paragraphs of explanation. That's what makes his partnership with graphic artist Joe Sacco on their book so potent and so effective… An unusual account of poverty and desolation across contemporary America."

The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism
Bill said… "The main thesis of Shock Doctrine, which came out five years ago before the great crash, was that disaster capitalism exploits crises in order to move greater wealth to the hands of the fewer and fewer people… that privatization of resources, monopolization of resources by the rich, in times of crisis, further divide us as a society."
Naomi Klein on Becoming a Radical (Video)
End This Depression Now!
Bill said… "It's both prescription and warning: our current obsession with slashing the deficit and avoiding that well-known and worn fiscal cliff is killing us, Krugman writes, getting in the way of what really needs to be done — which is dedicating government to creating jobs and getting us back to full employment. He blames not only Congress but the White House."

Bill said… "A masterful new account …You will not find in one volume a more compelling story of the heroic men and women who struggled for the right to vote, or a more cinematic rendering of the political battle to enact the [Voting Rights Act], or a more succinct telling of the long campaign to subvert it."
The Condemnation of Blackness

It's Even Worse than It Looks: How the American Constitutional System Collided with the New Politics of Extremism
Norman Ornstein and Thomas Mann
Bill said… "Mann and Ornstein argued that democracy and the economy are in a crash dive, and that congressional gridlock was largely the fault of the Republican Party and its takeover by right wing radicals. What's more, they said, the mainstream media was adding to the problem by resorting to "false equivalency," pretending that both parties were equally at fault."

The Speech: A Historic Filibuster on Corporate Greed and the Decline of Our Middle Class
Bill said… "You may recall what happened two years ago when Senator Sanders, having finished his usual Vermont breakfast of oatmeal and coffee, walked on to the floor of the Senate and began speaking. He spoke on for eight and a half hours, castigating the agreement President Obama and the Republicans had made to extend the Bush tax cuts for the ultra-rich, lower their estate taxes, and jeopardize the future of the Social Security Trust Fund by diverting revenue away from it to other purposes. That speech is now this book."

Every Riven Thing
Christian Wiman
Bill said… "When religion is used as a bludgeon, when political campaigns duke it out over religious beliefs, descending to strident partisan shouts of holier than thou, it's hard to remember that true faith and reason still can be part of what it means to be human. Today, a kindred spirit finds in poetry a way to face death with a graceful equanimity built on faith."

Book review: The Private Patient
Published in 2008, The Private Patient turned out to be the fourteenth and last in the Adam Dalgliesh detective series by PD James and there are flashes which make me think James knew that. It wasn't to be her last novel, though. Death Comes to Pemberley, published in 2011, was to be her last. She died in 2014 at the age of 94.
Is The Private Patient her best Dalgliesh novel? For me, no. I think the thirteenth in the series, The Lighthouse, is the best. Other favourites are Devices and Desires and Original Sin.
The Private Patient takes a while to get going. The first few chapters tell us about the victim, Rhoda Gradwyn, who we know will die at a private clinic in Dorset. Rhoda has a facial scar which she will have removed in surgery at Cheverell Manor. The intriguing thing for me is that Rhoda tells her surgeon she has no further need for the scar, but this seemed to get buried in the explanation of Rhoda's background and that of the staff at the Manor. Of course, once the murder happens, the story moves rapidly. This is an old-fashioned English murder story set in a private cosmetic surgery clinic where it seems everyone has something to hide. The characterization is a little clichéd, perhaps James' use of her own background is more evident here than in earlier novels.
We get more this time about Kate Miskin which I enjoyed, more beyond her origins which James has told us about before. If James had been younger, I can quite see that she would have retired Dalgliesh and started a new series based on Miskin.

Clarence Earl Gideon: Unlikely World-Shaker
Where did Clarence Gideon get the idea that he was entitled to a free lawyer?
Jack King
The Champion® Issue June 2012 Page: 58
Access to The Champion archive is one of many exclusive member benefits. It's normally restricted to just NACDL members. However, this content, and others like it, is available to everyone in order to educate the public on why criminal justice reform is a necessity.
Who was Clarence Earl Gideon, and where did he get the idea that he was entitled to a free lawyer?
Clarence Earl Gideon was not well-educated, but he was far from dumb or ignorant. A benign sort of career criminal (according to relatives, he just had a problem with stealing),1 more of his arrests ended with dismissals or acquittals than convictions. But where would a man with such extensive experience with the criminal justice system in several states have come by an abiding conviction - for lack of a better word - that due process requires the court to appoint a lawyer to represent any criminal defendant who cannot afford one? Gideon asserted that right in open court on August 4, 1961, when he was put on trial for breaking and entering the Bay Harbor Pool Hall in Panama City, Fla. Forced to represent himself, he still pled not guilty and tried his best to defend himself. He was convicted. Gideon was stubborn, and felt he had been gravely wronged by the state of Florida, and he would not give up.
Born august 30, 1910, in Hannibal, MO., Gideon had been in and out of prisons since he was 16. His father, a shoemaker, died when he was three, and his mother remarried. Gideon and his stepfather did not get along, and he ran away from home at age 14, "accept[ing] the life of a hobo and tramp," making his way as far as California before returning to Missouri about a year later.2
Gideon's mother introduced him to incarceration shortly after his return. "When [sic] to my mother's brother and started living with him until my mother found out where I was at and she came and got me. Had me place in the jail at Hannibal which I excaped from the next day[.]" It was cold, and Gideon broke into a country store and stole some clothes. The store's owner caught him wearing the clothes the same day. This time, Gideon wrote, "My mother ask the court to send me to the reformatory which they did for a term of three years."3
"Off all the prisons I have been in that was the worst I still have scar on my body from the whippings I received there anyway I was paroled after a year. I was then sixteen years old," he wrote.4 He got a job in a shoe factory soon after his release and married.
Gideon and his first wife managed to get along on his $25 a week, but when he found himself out of work at 18, he had his first serious run-in with the law when he was arrested after a one-man crime spree in his home state. A lawyer was appointed to represent him.
"I got without a job and I committed some crimes in 1928. I was caught and thru a court appointed attorney was sentenced to the Missouri Prison for ten years for robbery with three sentences of Burglary and larcney [larceny] running concurrently."5 He was paroled three years and four months later. That early experience probably helped cement his lifelong belief that due process required a lawyer for every man haled into court, rich or poor.
Gideon had at least four felony convictions and a host of minor infractions and arrests on his record. He spent more than half of the next two decades behind bars, but he was also something of an escape artist. The first time he was locked up, at age 15, he escaped from the Hannibal jail. In 1934, he was convicted of theft of U.S. government property and conspiracy and sentenced to three years in Fort Leavenworth, where he was assigned to the shoe factory. In 1939, he was arrested on an unknown charge and again escaped from jail before trial. In 1940, he was convicted of burglary and larceny and sentenced as a repeat offender. In 1943, he escaped from prison and went to work on the Southern Pacific Railroad as a brakeman, using an assumed name and forged Selective Service card. The following year he was arrested on a tip, convicted of escape, and imprisoned until January 1950. In 1951, he was convicted of an unspecified crime in Texas and served 13 months.6
In most of the prisons in which Gideon had done time, prisoners routinely filed appeals and petitions claiming, per Betts v. Brady,7 that the trial court had erred in failing to find "special circumstances" - such as illiteracy, youth, mental defect - which would have entitled them to court-appointed counsel. Gideon's petition did not. Betts notwithstanding, Gideon simply asserted that, as a poor man, he was entitled to a lawyer, just like anybody else. The record of his 1961 trial for breaking and entering the Bay Harbor Pool Hall shows that his assertion of that right was absolute, if unfounded in law:
The Defendant: Your Honor, I said: I request this court to appoint Counsel to represent me in this trial.
The Court: Mr. Gideon, I am sorry, but I cannot appoint Counsel to represent you in this case. Under the laws of the state of Florida, the only time the Court can appoint Counsel to represent a Defendant is when that person is charged with a capital offense. I am sorry, but I will have to deny your request to appoint Counsel to represent you in this case.
The Defendant: The United States Supreme Court says I am entitled to be represented by Counsel.8
Gideon, of course, was mistaken, but so was the judge. Florida law after Betts gave trial judges considerable discretion in appointment of counsel for defendants, and in some circuit courts appointment was fairly routine for serious felonies.
By now practically a "professional defendant," Gideon appealed his conviction to the Florida Supreme Court on the ground that he was denied counsel and due process of law. The court turned down his petition.
Prof. Bruce Jacob, who argued Gideon on behalf of the state of Florida, postulates that a fellow prisoner may have assisted Gideon with his petition. Gideon's cellmate was a former Palm Beach lawyer and municipal judge named Joseph A. Peel Jr., who was convicted of murdering a rival judge and his wife.9 Jacob's source for that interesting tidbit was none other than his friend and colleague W. Fred Turner, the able attorney who represented Gideon at his retrial. In a 2003 law review article, Jacob wrote, "According to Turner, Peel, Gideon's cellmate, stood over his shoulder as Gideon wrote and told him what to say."10
"Peel was a murder er, but he had also been a lawyer. If Turner is right - that Peel helped Gideon with his petition - this might explain why no special circumstance was alleged," Jacob speculated.
[A] lawyer such as Peel would have understood that the Supreme Court was on the verge of overruling Betts and that the perfect mechanism to enable them to do this would be a petition for habeas alleging no special circumstances, a denial by state courts, and then a petition for certiorari alleging a denial of the right to counsel, but not alleging any special circumstances. Also, a lawyer would have been aware that Gideon lost nothing by "shooting for the moon" in this attempt.11
Ironically, it would appear that Gideon had already given up his life of crime, if not his gambling and his drinking, by the time he was arrested for the break-in at the Bay Harbor Pool Hall. His arrest record notwithstanding, his last official conviction was in 1951. After the Bay Harbor poolroom case, he married for the fourth time and finally settled down to a quiet life of odd jobs and pumping gas.
Gideon died of cancer in Florida on January 18, 1972. He was only 61 years old.
His family brought his body back to Hannibal, and buried him in an unmarked grave, a few feet from his natural father, Charles Roscoe Gideon.
In November 1984, the American Civil Liberties Union placed a granite headstone on his grave.12 The stone quotes a line from the last paragraph of Gideon's November 1962 letter to Abe Fortas: "I believe that each era finds an improvement in law for the benefit of mankind."13

Gideon concluded his 22-page letter to Abe Fortas:
I believe that each era finds a [sic] improvement in law each year brings something new for the benefit of mankind. Maybe this will be one of those small steps forward, in the past thirty-five years I have seen great advancement in courts in penal servitude. Thank you for reading all of this. Please try to believe that all I want now from life is the chance for the love of my children the only real love I have ever had.

Savers need to lock up cash for SEVEN years to match inflation
Despite coming in at a lower-than expected rate of 2.6%, July's CPI inflation rate still remains a challenge to savers.
Consumers breathed a sigh of relief as the UK'S CPI inflation figure for July remained steady at 2.6%, unchanged from the previous month, and lower than the peak of 2.9% seen in May.
While the rate confounded expectations of an inflation rise, the figure hasn't done much to alleviate savers' concerns as the value of their money is being eroded over time. And coupled with the poor returns on cash, savers have to be savvier than ever to make their money work hard.
Aside from high interest current accounts and linked saver products, one way for savers to match the 2.6% inflation rate is to open a fixed bond and lock up their money for seven years.
Challenger PCF Bank is offering a seven-year bond which pays 2.6%. It's fairly new to the savings scene, having only received its bank authorisation in December 2016, but financial data site, Moneyfacts, said it has offered some incredibly competitive rates from the outset.
However, finance expert, Rachel Springall, said seven years is a considerable amount of time for someone to invest in cash, but it is an alternative for those who do not want to risk their capital on the stock market.
She said: "Consumers should be mindful that inflation could rise further still and that interest rates on cash savings are unlikely to outpace its effects in the current market. Therefore, savers would be wise to compare all kinds of cash savings vehicles to boost their returns: Fixed rates, regular savers, high interest current accounts but be mindful that they are likely to face funding and access restrictions on some of these options."

Inequality in the Digital Society
Summary of a joint workshop by the Friedrich Ebert Stiftung and the New Economics Foundation
16 January, 2017 | Publications
Stephen Devlin
In November 2016 Friedrich Ebert Stiftung and the New Economics Foundation jointly hosted a workshop in London to discuss and debate new technological trends and how they impact inequality on society. The workshop was attended by representatives from industry, civil society and government, and discussion was stimulated by contributions from Professor Daniel Buhr from the Universität Tübingen, based on research conducted by himself and colleagues, and Annie Quick and Stephen Devlin from the New Economics Foundation. This paper summarises the key points that emerged from the workshop and serves as a basis for further discussion.
Technology is increasingly central to our lives in all manner of ways and is continuously opening up new possibilities. But who will most benefit from them?
Some claim that tech companies and the products they develop are empowering ordinary people to take more control over their economic and social lives, enhancing their personal wellbeing and smashing up the old monopolies and economic power bases of the 20th century. But is this really the case? Without proper governance, the increasing role of technology in our lives and in our economy could change relations between people and institutions in a way that strengthens existing inequalities of power, rather than dissipating them. This paper explores the channels through which this could occur, the consequences of those changes, and some of the public policy questions that result.
This paper covers three broad and interrelated topics:
Automation & Industrial Transition: Changes to production processes resulting from new technology
Consequences for the welfare state and fiscal policy: The effects of technological change on the need for and effectiveness of social security and redistribution
Big Data & Digitalisation: Changes to how information is captured, stored and shared that affects how people (as consumers, workers, employers, etc.) relate to one another

St Kitts-Nevis Independence (1982-1983)
Bookmark:https://archiveshub.jisc.ac.uk/data/gb101-ics98
Institute of Commonwealth Studies Library, University of London
GB 101 ICS 98
Birch, Chris, fl 1982, journalist
Documents relating to the achievement of independence by St Kitts-Nevis in 1983, including official publications; papers on objections to the proposed constitution published by the St Kitts Nevis Anguilla Labour Party (Workers League) and Professor Bryan King and newspapers, bulletins and articles relating to the achievement of independence.
St Kitts-Nevis comprises the islands of St Kitts or St Christopher, in 1623 the first West Indian island to be settled by the British, and Nevis which was colonised in 1628. The two islands, together with Anguilla were united in 1882, and became an independent state in association with the United Kingdom in 1967. There were objections by Anguilla to the administration, which it considered to be dominated by St Kitts, and independence was declared by Anguilla later that year. Negotiations to resolve the dispute failed, and after being placed directly under British control in 1971, Anguilla was granted its own constitution in 1975 and union with St Kitts and Nevis formally severed in 1980.
There was a Constitutional Conference in London in 1982 to discuss the independence of St Kitts and Nevis. Despite disagreements over special provisions for Nevis in the proposed constitution, the independence process continued and was formally achieved on 19 September 1983. The objections came principally from the Labour Opposition, which until recently had dominated the administration and was still the largest party. Since 1980, however, the Government had consisted of a coalition of the People's Action Movement and Nevis's Reform Party, which held the balance of power and which the Opposition felt was instrumental in achieving Nevis's strong position in the new constitution.
The papers are grouped into three sections according to the type of document

Q: Proper formula for Debye field What is the proper formula for Debye field that accounts for not only electrons, but also for other charged particles that may be present in plasma? Information about it in the web is scarce and in the books it is only mentioned along side Debye length/radius that only accounts for electrons.

A: I think the paper "On the generalized formulation of Debye shielding in plasmas" by G. Livadiotis should answer your question.
You can also refer to the paper written by the same author, "Electrostatic shielding in plasmas and the physical meaning of the Debye length."

Them Tornados
Based: Cape Town
Them Tornados are psycho rockabilly
ROCKABILLY is the bastard love child of rock 'n roll and hillbilly country music. Born in the steamy swamps of the deep south, it has a greasy quiff that falls in its eyes when it gets all hot and sweaty. It has cheap tattoos of the names of long lost loves, and if it wears a shirt at all, it's a leopard-print wife beater.
It's the music your mama warned you about, the same music your daddy went out drinking and carousing with all night long. It may even have shot a man once, who knows?
It's the sound you want in the hands of Them Tornados – a little bit dirty, a little bit dangerous and a whole lot of shaking going on in all the right places.
Ian Arrow jitterbugs and jives on lead vocals and plays that Gretsch like his first sweetheart, while Matt Ferguson, in all his wild-eyed kilted glory, beats the mother lovin' crap out of his drums like no one else we know. Completing the trio is Psymon Perry slapping that double bass until his fingers bleed, and he can sing too. Them Tornados give rockabilly everything they've got, and then some. Their live gigs are legendary, leaving fans dripping with sweat and begging for more (yes, it's a lot like sex). They've got the style money can't buy, backed up by rock-solid substance.
The band has been around for a decade, playing all the sleaziest dives in Cape Town and a few respectable venues now and again. Just to pay the rent, of course. They've released a seven-track album accompanied by a hot-red vinyl single – Pyscho, and Cash Is King on the B-side, and are currently working on an all-original full length album.

I Would Do AnyThing For a Like But I Won't Do That: Post-Secondary Social Media Marketing
September 23, 2015 /1 Comment/in Advice, Marketing, Presentations, Social Media /by Jeph
I Would Do Anything For A Like But I Won't Do That from Jeph Maystruck
When it comes to Social media don't forget the social part of it. No one cares about you until you care about them. Engage, interact, retweet, like, and share. Help others and eventually they will help you.
People only go online for two reasons, to solve a problem or to entertain themselves, nothing else. Remember this when you're publishing on your website and sending email.
Don't tell people to like your institution, give people reason to like it.
Don't tell people to follow you online, give people a reason to like you online.
Don't tell people to share something, give people a reason to share what you are doing.

Pole tags should always be applied to the pole using an aluminum nail that has a twisted shank. The special shank design prevents the nail from working out and becoming loose. Poles, Inc.® offers aluminum nails with and without a date stamp on the head. Aluminum is specified for tags and nails because it will not corrode or rust, and is very long lasting. Pole tags that were installed using aluminum nails over 50 years ago can still be found in-service today.


Bumblebees are used for pollination in our high tunnels. The hives are mail-ordered and come in the form of a small cardboard box. Bumblebees don't mind working on cool, cloudy days and are very effective pollinators in high tunnels because they are not hindered by the effects of plastics on light quality. Floricane raspberries will be ripening in the next week or two.
be in the planting, the application will take place late in the evening when bees are back in their hives.

Q: Chrome extension popup not showing anymore I'm creating a new Chrome extension and everything was fine. However, today I was coding a new func, then I saw that my extension icon was grayed. And when I click on the icon, the popup isn't shown. One interesting point is that the extension is working. No error logs.
I commented all the code I wrote, but had no effect. If I open the link directly on the Chrome, it open a new tab showing the popup normally. [chrome-extension://extensionId/popup.html]

A: In manifest.json replace "page_action" (which only works on specific pages) with "browser_action" (which works on all of them).

A: If changing it from "page_action" to "browser_action" still does not work, check to see if your manifest defined any background.js and if that background.js has set any rules.
For example:
In the case of the Getting Started example from Google, the background.js had an onPageChanged rule where the url host must be 'developer.chrome.com' for the extension to be active.
replace
chrome.declarativeContent.onPageChanged.removeRules(undefined, function () {
    chrome.declarativeContent.onPageChanged.addRules([{
        conditions: [new chrome.declarativeContent.PageStateMatcher({
            pageUrl: { hostEquals: 'developer.chrome.com' },
        })
        ],
        actions: [new chrome.declarativeContent.ShowPageAction()]
    }]);
});

with
new chrome.declarativeContent.ShowPageAction()

so that the extension popup will be active for any page.
(This took me ages to figure out, so hope it'll help others)

A: I was following along with the tutorial and had the exact same problem on Chrome 87. The issue is that the page doesn't have access to the extension. To solve this problem:
Click on the extension icon in the top right
It should be next to your user icon.

Under the "Access Requested" header, click on your extension's name
You may or may not have extensions under "Full access" (i.e. I have the react developer tools). This does not matter.

Your extension should now show it's popup. Note that you will have to do this each time you reload the extension.

A: If you read the Get Started(https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/mv2/getstarted/) page carefully, you see the background.js add rules for your page.
You can create an always-true PageStateMatcher to activate your page action.
chrome.runtime.onInstalled.addListener(function() {

    chrome.declarativeContent.onPageChanged.removeRules(undefined, function() {
      chrome.declarativeContent.onPageChanged.addRules([{
        conditions: [new chrome.declarativeContent.PageStateMatcher({
          // Comment below line so that PageStateMatcher match any pages
          // pageUrl: {hostEquals: 'developer.chrome.com'},
        })
        ],
        actions: [new chrome.declarativeContent.ShowPageAction()]
      }]);
    });
});

A: For anyone landing here from Google: the API has changed with manifest version 3.
Now, page_action and browser_action are merged under the property action. Read more in the docs.

Vienna: With Myself and Some Others
March 16, 2016 by inquilabi
Louis Corinth, "Still life with Chrysanthemum" (1922)
"I have found a new way: true art is to practice unreality"
Watch how in this painting the wind from nowhere blows through the flowers. Vienna was a bit like that.
Vienna, Day 2, March 10, 2016.
Beautiful, sparkling sky, blue without any mist.
Took the S-Bahn to the Belvedere Palace. The train had two floors, very fancy and very clean. It was a relief of the familiar to find a Viennese man give me wrong directions to the train and a small, immigrant woman correct him and direct me to the right train.
The Belvedere Palace is a massive Baroque palace that has been turned into a museum. It is set amidst beautiful gardens and faces a shimmering pool. It is fitting that it should house the translucent, golden-magical works of Gustav Klimt.
Belvedere Palace
But more than Klimt, I fell in love today with Egon Schiele, one whom I knew little about.
Apparently Schiele led a dissolute life, married a woman he was not particularly close to and then at twenty-eight died of Spanish influenza along with his wife who was then pregnant with their first child.
There is a vivid and spectral painting by Schiele at the Belvedere—"Mother with two children III" (1915-1917). A grey, grey, gaunt mother is holding two colordrenched children. The eyes of the mother are cast downwards while the children look wide eyed upon you. The mother's head lies at her shoulders, laden with layers of exhaustion, and her body is draped in a half inclined position between the two children. She can barely sit up. Her body is invisible except for her skeletal face and her shroudlike long dress that melds into her face, blurring all distinction between flesh and flesh-cover, both being of the same texture.
"Mother with two children III" (1915-1917)
The children wear vividly colored, patterned clothes. They are based on Bohemian peasant clothes, a region of Austria where Schiele's own mother was from. The bright yellows, oranges and reds of the jackets almost hurt my eyes. Did they drain the colors from their mama? Did they eat her life?
The Mother Again
The second in my Mother series of the day is Giovanni Segantini's (1858-99) Evil Mothers (1899). The painting apparently was inspired by a poem by a twelfth century monk, Luigi Illica. Some sources say Illica was inspired by an Indian epic poem, Pangiavahli. But I have found nothing on this so called Indian poem, so I am both curious as well as skeptical about this 'Indian' connection.
Giovanni Segantini's (1858-99) Evil Mothers (1899)
Who is an Evil Mother?
One who did not fulfill her true biological destiny but aborted/destroyed her children. The painting has in its foreground a woman wrapped in a diaphanous material attached to a tree. A baby is at her exposed full breast. But she herself along with the baby seems to be being birthed. The web like mesh around her holding her in its womb. Her hair is caught in the branches of the tree, but gives the impression of waving in water. Again, is she in this dry barren landscape, or is she being born in painful waters?
The woman in the foreground is one of the redeemed. She is birthing her child and hence can be born herself, anew, as a pure soul once more. Thronging her in the distant desert background are her evil sisters. The unredeemed. They writhe in strange bramble woven cocoons, denied a rebirth into purity. These are the women who have committed the terrible crime of making decisions about their own bodies and their own lives.
We are the children of these women that they refused to foreground.
I am closing my eyes at the Café Central, trying to see Trotsky walking through the doors.
Cafe Central, Herrengasse 14.
Is he ordering a drink or a coffee or both?
Something is wrong with the way the servers are moving around me as I try to think of 1915-17. I realize that I expect them to move slower in the past, sort of glide around me, rather than keep to this hectic, neoliberal, ready-for-the-tourist pace. Imperial culture is all about gliding, only when you expose the actual culture of work and labor do you see the rush. When you make work invisible, everyone glides.
Dear Leon...
Anyway, here comes Trotsky. Am going to ask him about poetry and sex. Got to go.
Just ordered a "Large Viennese Breakfast" at the charming Café at the Leopold Museum. Behind me as I sip tea is the Museum Quartier. A vast expanse with several museums lined with trees. I can imagine what this place looks like during the warm months when the trees are in full bloom. There is a children's museum here in the quad, I hope I get to bring Lulu here one day.
Leopold Museum, Museum Quartier
I love the ceiling lights in the café, old 1950s style lamps and there is a bar lining the back of the room. I just saw a father raise his three year old on to the bar stool and order food and drinks for themselves. The little boy's head is framed by a line of Sherries and Cointreaus. So beautiful this nonsegregated childhood between children and adults.
Next to me, on my left, a deeply slivered and lined couple just ordered two little cappuccinos and two huge Sacher tortes.
This is a good place, Vienna.
I came out of the underground metro and right there in front of me, a full kilometer long, is Karl Marx Hof. A full kilometer of 1300 apartments, play area, libraries.
Karl Marx Hof was built between 1927 and 1930 by Karl Ehn, a student of Otto Wagner, during the Red Vienna years, when Social Democrats controlled the City Council without interruption between 1919 and 1934.
It is an astonishing structure, like a little city. The outer perimeter wall has large vaults, arches and heavy, grilled gates which look like medieval castle entrances. Beyond those there are beautiful, wide open, green spaces where the clustering buildings breathe. Looking around it is astonishing to me how utterly modern the early socialist imaginaire was. No sentimental or sly nods to 'tradition' or the past here, it is all suffused with a relentless now and new.
Inside the Museum of Red Vienna
Museum is a rather grandiose term for two rooms, in Washhouse 2. I loved the fact that this archive and memory of working class history was in a laundry building, and a still working one.
The social democrats won their first municipal election on May 4, 1919 winning 100 out of the 165 seats, making Vienna the world's first city of over a million people with a social democratic administration. These were some of the architects of those insurgent times:
Ferdinand Hamisch introduced the 8 hour work day and 48 hour week, social security, unemployment insurance and capping of weekly working hours for women and children.
Julius Tandler, scientist and city councilor said: "What we spend for youth homes we will save on prisons. What we spend for the care of pregnant women and babies we will save in hospitals for mental illnesses." All parents got a "clothes package" for each baby so that "no child in Vienna has to be wrapped in a newspaper."
Money to pay for all these programs came from a socially graduated taxation system instituted by Hugo Breitner. Between 1923-34 over 380 council blocks were constructed with more than 64,000 new homes.
Election Poster for Breitner
The interwar period saw the consolidation not just of the Left, but also of the Right. Paramilitary groups of the Right called "Heimwehren" or Home Guards, began to form all over Austria to fight the organized Left. In response, workers formed their own militia, the Republikanischer Schutzbund.
The first objects you see when you walk into the museum are a military uniform, rifle, flag and pennant of the Republikanischer Schutzbund. Why start with defense rather than celebratory achievements?
Perhaps because the memory of 1934 is still encoded in the architecture of Karl Marx Hof.
On February 12, 1934 the Heimwehren raided the Social democratic Party offices in Linz. Within hours fighting broke out between the Right and the Left all over the country. Particularly brutal centers of the fighting were working class areas and neighborhoods such as Karl Marx Hof. In a civil war like situation that lasted for days more than 1000 people were killed and members of the Schutzbund arrested and executed. On May 1, 1934, the Austro-fascist state was established along with the banning of all organizations of the Social Democrats. Gentle reforms were not enough against the might of Capital, armed to the teeth.
At the end of the exhibition there is a slightly unreal installation, a modern flat screen television pops out slightly from the wall. It plays old black and white film reels of Social Democratic Party propaganda. Right atop the television screen is a melancholy head of Victor Adler.
Here he is, the television blares, the old 1920s posters crowd the room.
Dear Victor, how shall I remember you? For the social housing? For your support for the war in 1914? For your derision of Socialism from below and your utter, unfailing dedication to Socialism from above? In the age of Jeremy, Bernie and Tsipras, your head looks like it's made from papier maché.
