Asuka Langley Soryu is a fictional character of the Neon Genesis Evangelion franchise. Within the series, she is designated as the Second Child and the pilot of the Evangelion Unit 02. Her surname is romanized as Soryu in the English manga and Sohryu in the English version of the TV series, the English version of the movie, and on Gainax's website. Asuka is voiced by Yūko Miyamura in Japanese in all animated appearances and merchandise; Asuka is voiced by Tiffany Grant in English. In the Rebuild of Evangelion movies, Asuka's Japanese surname is changed to Shikinami. In a Newtype poll from March 2010, Asuka was voted as the third most popular female anime character from the 1990s.
Asuka Langley Soryu was born in Germany to an American father and a Japanese-German mother. Asuka's surname comes from the Japanese World War II aircraft carrier Soryu, her German surname from the American World War II aircraft carrier Langley, and her Rebuild surname from the Japanese World War II destroyer Shikinami. Her first name comes from Asuka Saki, the main character of the Japanese manga Super Girl Asuka, written by Shinji Wada.
Asuka also appears in many manga series based on the anime, including Neon Genesis Evangelion by Yoshiyuki Sadamoto. The events in this manga series mirror those of the anime with some divergences apparent. Asuka appears as a main character in the series and is depicted, for the most part, similar to her anime counterpart. Asuka appears in various other manga spin-offs including the Shinji Ikari Raising Project and Neon Genesis Evangelion: Campus Apocalypse with varying changes to her personality and characterization.

Talking is a natural development milestone that your little one will go through. However, by talking to them and engaging them in dialogue you are not only helping them to talk earlier, you are also helping them to learn a much wider vocabulary.
As soon as your little one is born you should talk to them. They may not make any form of reaction but they are absorbing a lot more than you may realise.
Even as infants it is important to talk to your little one about more than the daily routine. It you catch them in a gaze follow the stare and explain to them what it is they are looking at. This will go a long way in helping them learn more words. Having a chat with your child can be one of the most effective ways to give them a head start in speech development.
Touch-and-feel books are great for babies under six months because their sense are a primary skill. You will also be more inclined to make up your own tale thus strengthen your bond with your little one. Reading can inspire a rich vocabulary and provide fun themes for you to discuss.
When you do say something to them try to give them a chance to respond to your voice, even if it is just goo-ga-ga. You should also respond to the sounds that they make as this will teach them how a conversation works.
Back-and-forth social interaction is essential to encourage and a TV character does not respond to your youngster. When you reply to your little one's sounds, they will be encouraged to do it again.
The more words that your child is subjected to, the easier it is for them to connect the word to its meaning which will encourage them to say more.

5 Surprising Ways Champagne Is Really Good for You
As if you needed another excuse to drink it.
By Sam Dangremond
We're big fans of champagne (here's proof, in case you needed it). But until now, we weren't aware that the bubbly we're drinking on the reg actually has a quite a few scientifically-proven health benefits. Take a look:
It's low-calorie.
While a glass of red or white wine contains between 135 and 200 calories, a glass of brut (dry) champagne clocks in at only 95. And the low-sugar version, called "low dosage," has a mere 65 calories per glass.
It prevents dementia and memory loss.
A study at the University of Reading determined that drinking one to three glasses of champagne each week can boost brain health. The study was done on rats, half of whom were served champagne every day for six weeks (nice life for a rat, right?). The rats were tasked with completing a maze, and while the sober rats had an average success rate of 50 percent, the bubbly drinkers had a 70 percent success rate.
It's good for your skin.
"Champagne detoxifies the skin with antioxidants, and its lightening tartaric acid helps even out the skin tone," says dermatologist Marina Peredo. "For those with oily skin, its antibacterial properties [help with] breakouts."
It's a heart-healthy beverage.
In fact, it's just as good for your heart as red wine. Another University of Reading study concluded that "two glasses of champagne a day may be good for your heart and circulation and could reduce the risks of suffering from cardiovascular disease and stroke." Maybe they should rename the place Champagne University?
It may actually help you drink less in the long run.
Champagne and other effervescent drinks have been shown to make people drink slower and feel full more quickly. There's even a diet plan based around it.
Seems like these might be an even better idea than you thought:

O Siirtspor Kulübü foi um clube de futebol turco sediado na cidade de Siirt, fundado em 1969 e extinto em 2020.

Suas cores oficiais eram o azul e o amarelo. Enquanto atuou profissionalmente, mandou seus jogos no  Siirt Atatürk Stadi, estádio com capacidade máxima para  espectadores.

História
Fundado em 1969 com a denominação Siirt YSE, o clube era formado por integrantes da YSE - Yol Su Elektrik (em português, Água-Energia-Rodovias), autarquia federal ligada ao antigo Ministério das Cidades da Turquia responsável pela construção, manutenção e gestão de redes de energia elétrica, abastecimento de água e do sistema rodoviário do país entre as décadas de 1960 e 1980. Com o passar dos anos, o clube alterou sua denominação diversas vezes a medida em que fechava contratos de patrocínio com novos parceiros comerciais. Foi somente em 2002 que o clube passou a denominar-se Siirtspor Kulübü, nome pelo qual ficou conhecido até o encerramento de suas atividades em 2020.

Seu ápice dentro do cenário do futebol turco ocorreu na temporada 2000–01 quando disputou a Primeira Divisão Turca pela primeira vez em sua história. Entretanto, sua participação na divisão máxima do futebol turco foi breve, sendo rebaixado ao final dessa mesma temporada ao terminar a competição na 16ª colocação entre 18 equipes.

A partir desse rebaixamento, o Siirtspor passou a enfrentar uma séria crise financeira ocasionada pelo elevado investimento no plantel para a disputa da 1. Lig que não provou-se acertada e que piorou após a falência de seu principal patrocinador, acarretando no rebaixamento do clube para a TFF 2. Lig ao final da temporada 2001–02.

Na Terceira Divisão Turca, o clube permaneceu por 5 temporadas, alternando entre campanhas medianas e ruins até ser rebaixado para a TFF 3. Lig ao final da temporada 2006–07. Já na Quarta Divisão Turca, o Siirtspor permaneceu por um período ligeiramente maior, disputando ao todo 7 temporadas até ser forçado pela Federação Turca de Futebol a abandonar a competição durante a temporada 2013–14 por não conseguir mais arcar com as despesas básicas de deslocamento e hospedagem de seus atletas para os jogos oficiais realizados fora de casa contra as demais equipes do campeonato.

Com seu afastamento das divisões profissionais do futebol turco, o clube mudou sua razão social e passou a ser uma associação civil controlada pelos sócios-torcedores. Em seus últimos anos, alternou participações entre as Ligas Regionais Amadoras e a divisão distrital de Siirt até 2020 quando a diretoria do Siirtspor decretou o encerramento definitivo de suas atividades após sua situação de insolvência fiscal ter sido declarada pela justiça desportiva local, não havendo mais o interesse tanto de potenciais patrocinadores quanto dos próprios sócios-torcedores em manter a existência institucional do clube.

Petrarch, who conceived the idea of a European "Dark Age". From Cycle of Famous Men and Women, Andrea di Bartolo di Bargilla, c. 1450
The "Dark Ages" is a term for the Early Middle Ages or Middle Ages in Western Europe after the fall of the Western Roman Empire, characterizing it as marked by economic, intellectual, and cultural decline.
The concept of a "Dark Age" originated in the 1330s with the Italian scholar Petrarch, who regarded the post-Roman centuries as "dark" compared to the "light" of classical antiquity.[1][2] The term employs traditional light-versus-darkness imagery to contrast the era's "darkness" (lack of records) with earlier and later periods of "light" (abundance of records).[1] The phrase "Dark Age" itself derives from the Latin saeculum obscurum, originally applied by Caesar Baronius in 1602 when he referred to a tumultuous period in the 10th and 11th centuries.[3][4] The concept thus came to characterize the entire Middle Ages as a time of intellectual darkness in Europe between the fall of Rome and the Renaissance. This became especially popular during the 18th-century Age of Enlightenment.[1]
As the accomplishments of the era came to be better understood in the 19th and 20th centuries, scholars began restricting the "Dark Ages" appellation to the Early Middle Ages (c. 5th–10th century),[1][5][6] and now scholars also reject its usage in this period.[7] The majority of modern scholars avoid the term altogether due to its negative connotations, finding it misleading and inaccurate.[8][9][10][11] Petrarch's pejorative meaning remains in use,[12][13][14] typically in popular culture which often mischaracterises the Middle Ages as a time of violence and backwardness.[15][16]

Petrarch
Triumph of Christianity by Tommaso Laureti (1530–1602), ceiling painting in the Sala di Constantino, Vatican Palace. Images like this one celebrate the triumph of Christianity over the paganism of Antiquity.
The idea of a Dark Age originated with the Tuscan scholar Petrarch in the 1330s.[14][17] Writing of the past, he said: "Amidst the errors there shone forth men of genius; no less keen were their eyes, although they were surrounded by darkness and dense gloom".[18] Christian writers, including Petrarch himself,[17] had long used traditional metaphors of 'light versus darkness' to describe 'good versus evil'. Petrarch was the first to give the metaphor secular meaning by reversing its application. He now saw classical antiquity, so long considered a 'dark' age for its lack of Christianity, in the 'light' of its cultural achievements, while Petrarch's own time, allegedly lacking such cultural achievements, was seen as the age of darkness.[17]
From his perspective on the Italian peninsula, Petrarch saw the Roman period and classical antiquity as an expression of greatness.[17] He spent much of his time traveling through Europe, rediscovering and republishing classic Latin and Greek texts. He wanted to restore the Latin language to its former purity. Renaissance humanists saw the preceding 900 years as a time of stagnation, with history unfolding not along the religious outline of Saint Augustine's Six Ages of the World, but in cultural (or secular) terms through progressive development of classical ideals, literature, and art.
Petrarch wrote that history had two periods: the classic period of Greeks and Romans, followed by a time of darkness in which he saw himself living. In around 1343, in the conclusion of his epic Africa, he wrote: "My fate is to live among varied and confusing storms. But for you perhaps, if as I hope and wish you will live long after me, there will follow a better age. This sleep of forgetfulness will not last forever. When the darkness has been dispersed, our descendants can come again in the former pure radiance."[19] In the 15th century, historians Leonardo Bruni and Flavio Biondo developed a three-tier outline of history. They used Petrarch's two ages, plus a modern, 'better age', which they believed the world had entered. Later the term 'Middle Ages' – Latin media tempestas (1469) or medium aevum (1604) – was used to describe the period of supposed decline.[20]
During the Reformations of the 16th and 17th centuries, Protestants generally had a similar view to Renaissance humanists such as Petrarch, but also added an anti-Catholic perspective. They saw classical antiquity as a golden time, not only because of its Latin literature, but also because it witnessed the beginnings of Christianity. They promoted the idea that the 'Middle Age' was a time of darkness also because of corruption within the Catholic Church, such as: popes ruling as kings, veneration of saints' relics, a licentious priesthood, and institutionalized moral hypocrisy.[21]
Baronius
In response to the Protestants, Catholics developed a counter-image to depict the High Middle Ages in particular as a period of social and religious harmony, and not 'dark' at all.[22] The most important Catholic reply to the Magdeburg Centuries was the Annales Ecclesiastici by Cardinal Caesar Baronius. Baronius was a trained historian who produced a work that the Encyclopædia Britannica in 1911 described as "far surpassing anything before"[23] and that Acton regarded as "the greatest history of the Church ever written".[24] The Annales covered the first twelve centuries of Christianity to 1198, and was published in twelve volumes between 1588 and 1607. It was in Volume X that Baronius coined the term "dark age" for the period between the end of the Carolingian Empire in 888[25] and the first stirrings of Gregorian Reform under Pope Clement II in 1046:
Volumes of Patrologia Latina per century[26]
7th 80–88 8
9th 97–130 33
10th 131–138 7
11th 139–151 12
"The new age (saeculum) that was beginning, for its harshness and barrenness of good could well be called iron, for its baseness and abounding evil leaden, and moreover for its lack of writers (inopia scriptorum) dark (obscurum)".[27]
Significantly, Baronius termed the age 'dark' because of the paucity of written records. The "lack of writers" he referred to may be illustrated by comparing the number of volumes in Migne's Patrologia Latina containing the work of Latin writers from the 10th century (the heart of the age he called 'dark') with the number containing the work of writers from the preceding and succeeding centuries. A minority of these writers were historians.
Medieval production of manuscripts.[28] The beginning of the Middle Ages was also a period of low activity in copying. Note that this graph does not include the Byzantine Empire.
There is a sharp drop from 34 volumes in the 9th century to just 8 in the 10th. The 11th century, with 13, evidences a certain recovery, and the 12th century, with 40, surpasses the 9th, something the 13th, with just 26, fails to do. There was indeed a 'dark age', in Baronius's sense of a "lack of writers", between the Carolingian Renaissance in the 9th century and the beginnings, some time in the 11th, of what has been called the Renaissance of the 12th century. Furthermore, there was an earlier period of "lack of writers" during the 7th and 8th centuries. So, in Western Europe, two 'dark ages' can be identified, separated by the brilliant but brief Carolingian Renaissance.
Baronius' 'dark age' seems to have struck historians, for it was in the 17th century that the term started to spread to various European languages, with his original Latin term saeculum obscurum being reserved for the period he had applied it to. But while some, following Baronius, used 'dark age' neutrally to refer to a dearth of written records, others used it pejoratively, lapsing into that lack of objectivity that has discredited the term for many modern historians.
The first British historian to use the term was most likely Gilbert Burnet, in the form 'darker ages' which appears several times in his work during the later 17th century. The earliest reference seems to be in the "Epistle Dedicatory" to Volume I of The History of the Reformation of the Church of England of 1679, where he writes: "The design of the reformation was to restore Christianity to what it was at first, and to purge it of those corruptions, with which it was overrun in the later and darker ages."[29] He uses it again in the 1682 Volume II, where he dismisses the story of "St George's fighting with the dragon" as "a legend formed in the darker ages to support the humour of chivalry".[30] Burnet was a bishop chronicling how England became Protestant, and his use of the term is invariably pejorative.
During the Age of Enlightenment of the 17th and 18th centuries, many critical thinkers saw religion as antithetical to reason. For them the Middle Ages, or "Age of Faith", was therefore the opposite of the Age of Reason.[31] Baruch Spinoza, Bernard Fontenelle, Kant, Hume, Thomas Jefferson, Thomas Paine, Denis Diderot, Voltaire, Marquis De Sade and Rousseau were vocal in attacking the Middle Ages as a period of social regress dominated by religion, while Gibbon in The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire expressed contempt for the "rubbish of the Dark Ages".[32] Yet just as Petrarch, seeing himself at the cusp of a "new age", was criticising the centuries before his own time, so too were Enlightenment writers.
Consequently, an evolution had occurred in at least three ways. Petrarch's original metaphor of light versus dark has expanded over time, implicitly at least. Even if later humanists no longer saw themselves living in a dark age, their times were still not light enough for 18th-century writers who saw themselves as living in the real Age of Enlightenment, while the period to be condemned stretched to include what we now call Early Modern times. Additionally, Petrarch's metaphor of darkness, which he used mainly to deplore what he saw as a lack of secular achievement, was sharpened to take on a more explicitly anti-religious and anti-clerical meaning.
In the late 18th and early 19th centuries, the Romantics reversed the negative assessment of Enlightenment critics with a vogue for medievalism.[33] The word "Gothic" had been a term of opprobrium akin to "Vandal" until a few self-confident mid-18th-century English "Goths" like Horace Walpole initiated the Gothic Revival in the arts. This stimulated interest in the Middle Ages, which for the following generation began to take on the idyllic image of an "Age of Faith". This, reacting to a world dominated by Enlightenment rationalism, expressed a romantic view of a Golden Age of chivalry. The Middle Ages were seen with nostalgia as a period of social and environmental harmony and spiritual inspiration, in contrast to the excesses of the French Revolution and, most of all, to the environmental and social upheavals and utilitarianism of the developing Industrial Revolution.[34] The Romantics' view is still represented in modern-day fairs and festivals celebrating the period with 'merrie' costumes and events.
Just as Petrarch had twisted the meaning of light versus darkness, so the Romantics had twisted the judgment of the Enlightenment. However, the period they idealized was largely the High Middle Ages, extending into Early Modern times. In one respect, this negated the religious aspect of Petrarch's judgment, since these later centuries were those when the power and prestige of the Church were at their height. To many, the scope of the Dark Ages was becoming divorced from this period, denoting mainly the centuries immediately following the fall of Rome.
Modern scholarly use

The term was widely used by 19th-century historians. In 1860, in The Civilization of the Renaissance in Italy, Jacob Burckhardt delineated the contrast between the medieval 'dark ages' and the more enlightened Renaissance, which had revived the cultural and intellectual achievements of antiquity.[35] The earliest entry for a capitalized "Dark Ages" in the Oxford English Dictionary (OED) is a reference in Henry Thomas Buckle's History of Civilization in England in 1857, who wrote: "During these, which are rightly called the Dark Ages, the clergy were supreme." The OED in 1894 defined an uncapitalised "dark ages" as "a term sometimes applied to the period of the Middle Ages to mark the intellectual darkness characteristic of the time".[36]
However, the early 20th century saw a radical re-evaluation of the Middle Ages, which called into question the terminology of darkness,[10] or at least its more pejorative use. The historian Denys Hay spoke ironically of "the lively centuries which we call dark".[37] More forcefully, a book about the history of German literature published in 2007 describes "the dark ages" as "a popular if uninformed manner of speaking".[38]
Most modern historians do not use the term "dark ages", preferring terms such as Early Middle Ages. But when used by some historians today, the term "Dark Ages" is meant to describe the economic, political, and cultural problems of the era.[39][40] For others, the term Dark Ages is intended to be neutral, expressing the idea that the events of the period seem 'dark' to us because of the paucity of the historical record.[10] For example Robert Sallares, commenting on the lack of sources to establish whether the plague pandemic of 541 to 750 reached northern Europe, opines "the epithet Dark Ages is surely still an appropriate description of this period".[41] The term is also used in this sense (often in the singular) to reference the Bronze Age collapse and the subsequent Greek Dark Ages,[12] the brief Parthian Dark Age (1st century BC),[42] the dark ages of Cambodia (c. 1450–1863 AD), and also a hypothetical Digital Dark Age which would ensue if the electronic documents produced in the current period were to become unreadable at some point in the future.[43] Some Byzantinists have used the term Byzantine Dark Ages to refer to the period from the earliest Muslim conquests to about 800,[44] because there are no extant historical texts in Greek from this period, and thus the history of the Byzantine Empire and its territories that were conquered by the Muslims is poorly understood and must be reconstructed from other contemporaneous sources, such as religious texts.[45][46] The term "dark age" is not restricted to the discipline of history. Since the archaeological evidence for some periods is abundant and for others scanty, there are also archaeological dark ages.[47]
Since the Late Middle Ages significantly overlap with the Renaissance, the term 'Dark Ages' became restricted to distinct times and places in medieval Europe. Thus the 5th and 6th centuries in Britain, at the height of the Saxon invasions, have been called "the darkest of the Dark Ages",[48] in view of the societal collapse of the period and the consequent lack of historical records. Further south and east, the same was true in the former Roman province of Dacia, where history after the Roman withdrawal went unrecorded for centuries as Slavs, Avars, Bulgars, and others struggled for supremacy in the Danube basin, and events there are still disputed. However, at this time the Abbasid Caliphate is often considered to have experienced its Golden Age rather than Dark Age; consequently, usage of the term must also specify a geography. While Petrarch's concept of a Dark Age corresponded to a mostly Christian period following pre-Christian Rome, today the term mainly applies to the cultures and periods in Europe that were least Christianized, and thus most sparsely covered by chronicles and other contemporary sources, at the time mostly written by Catholic clergy.[citation needed]
However, from the later 20th century onward, other historians became critical even of this nonjudgmental use of the term, for two main reasons.[10] Firstly, it is questionable whether it is ever possible to use the term in a neutral way: scholars may intend this, but ordinary readers may not understand it so. Secondly, 20th-century scholarship had increased understanding of the history and culture of the period,[49] to such an extent that it is no longer really 'dark' to us.[10] To avoid the value judgment implied by the expression, many historians now avoid it altogether.[50][51] It was occasionally used up to the 1990s by historians of early medieval Britain, for example in the title of the 1991 book by Ann Williams, Alfred Smyth and D. P. Kirby, A Biographical Dictionary of Dark Age Britain, England, Scotland and Wales, c.500-c.1050,[52] and in the comment by Richard Abels in 1998 that the greatness of Alfred the Great "was the greatness of a Dark Age king".[53] In 2020, John Blair, Stephen Rippon and Christopher Smart observed that: "The days when archaeologists and historians referred to the fifth to the tenth centuries as the 'Dark Ages' are long gone, and the material culture produced during that period demonstrates a high degree of sophistication."[54]
Modern non-scholarly use
A 2021 lecture by Howard Williams of Chester University explored how "stereotypes and popular perceptions of the Early Middle Ages – popularly still considered the European 'Dark Ages' – plague popular culture";[55] and finding 'Dark Ages' is "rife outside of academic literature, including in newspaper articles and media debates."[56] As to why it is used, according to Williams, legends and racial misunderstandings have been revitalized by modern nationalists, colonialists and imperialists around present-day concepts of identity, faith and origin myths ie. appropriating historical myths for modern political ends.[56]
In a "groundbreaking"[57] book about medievalisms in popular culture by Andrew B. R. Elliott (2017), he found "by far" the most common use of 'Dark Ages' is to "signify a general sense of backwardness or lack of technological sophistication", in particular noting how it has become entrenched in daily and political discourse.[58] Reasons for use, according to Elliott, are often "banal" (a term he coins in banal medievalisms), "characterized mainly by being unconscious, unwitting and by having little or no intention to refer to the Middle Ages"; for example, referring to an insurance industry that still relied on paper instead of computers as being in the 'Dark Ages'.[57] These banal uses are little more than tropes that inherently contain a criticism about lack of progress.[58] Elliott connects 'Dark Ages' to the "Myth of Progress", also observed by Joseph Tainter, who says, "There is genuine bias against so-called 'Dark Ages'" because of a modern belief that society normally traverses from lesser to greater complexity, and when complexity is reduced during a collapse, this is perceived as out of the ordinary and thus undesirable; he counters that complexity is rare in human history, a costly mode of organization that must be constantly maintained, and periods of less complexity are common and to be expected as part of the overall progression towards greater complexity.[15]
In Peter S. Wells's 2008 book, Barbarians to Angels: The Dark Ages Reconsidered, he writes "I have tried to show that far from being a period of cultural bleakness and unmitigated violence, the centuries (5th - 9th) known popularly as the Dark Ages were a time of dynamic development, cultural creativity, and long-distance networking".[59] He writes that our "popular understanding" of these centuries, "depends largely on the picture of barbarian invaders that Edward Gibbon presented more than two hundred years ago," and that this view has been accepted "by many who have read and admire Gibbons work."[60]
David C. Lindberg, a science and religion historian, says the 'Dark Ages' are "according to wide-spread popular belief" portrayed as "a time of ignorance, barbarism and superstition", for which he asserts "blame is most often laid at the feet of the Christian church".[61] Medieval historian Matthew Gabriele echoes this view as a myth of popular culture.[62] Andrew B. R. Elliott notes the extent to which "Middle Ages/Dark Ages have come to be synonymous with religious persecution, witch hunts and scientific ignorance".[63]

This was not the old view, and it does not agree with the proper meaning of the name.

^ Baronius's actual starting-point for the "dark age" was 900 (annus Redemptoris nongentesimus), but that was an arbitrary rounding off due mainly to his strictly annalistic approach. Later historians, e.g. Marco Porri in his Catholic History of the Church (Storia della Chiesa) or the Lutheran Christian Cyclopedia ("Saeculum Obscurum") Archived 2009-10-19 at the Wayback Machine, have tended to amend it to the more historically significant date of 888, often rounding it down further to 880. The first weeks of 888 witnessed both the final break-up of the Carolingian Empire and the death of its deposed ruler Charles the Fat. Unlike the end of the Carolingian Empire, however, the end of the Carolingian Renaissance cannot be precisely dated, and it was the latter development that was responsible for the "lack of writers" that Baronius, as a historian, found so irksome.

December 29, 2019 (San Diego's East County) – These local leaders who passed on in 2019 left their indelible marks on our communities, gone but never forgotten.
GEORGE BAILEY -- Shortly after celebrating his 100th birthday, former La Mesa Mayor and San Diego County Supervisor died at his home on March 11th of congestive heart failure. He served on the San Diego Association of Regional Governments (SANDAG), chaired the California Councils of Government and was director of the National Association of Regional Councils.. The George Bailey Detention Center was named in his honor, due to his support for winning voter approval to fund construction. He was also instrumental in preserving the cross atop Mt. Helix and improving traffic in our region. He is remembered as a leader who left behind an indelible stamp on East County and the San Diego region, drawing respect from colleagues on both sides of the political aisle.
JIM BELL -- Jim Bell, ecological designer and internationally recognized expert on sustainable development who twice ran for mayor of San Diego, was a graduate of El Capitan High School in Lakeside. His vision was vast: to transform the San Diego/Tijuana Regional economy" from one that relied almost entirely on imported water and energy into an economy that would be prosperous and 100% renewable--energy, water and food self-sufficient--creating a model for others to emulate around the world. He died at age 77 of complications from a stroke.

February 10, 2014 (Boulevard)--Yesterday, we reported how three authorities state Soitec's consultant is wrong, Boulevard does not possess enough water for their proposed solar project. Now a video from the February 6 community meeting, at Boulevard, reveals that Soitec's consultant, Dudek, recently underestimated the amount of water needed at SDG&E recent ECO substation project by more than three times what would be the final total. (The original estimate was 30 million gallons and the actual amount was closer to 100 million gallons.) Dudek is also alleged to have seriously underestimated the amount of water needed for the Ocotillo Wind Project. If this is true, how can we assume that Dudek's estimates for the Boulevard project are correct?

Lemon Grove Recreation Department
May 5, 2011 (Lemon Grove) – A packed audience turned out Tuesday in Lemon Grove, where the cash-strapped city's council voted 3-2 to eliminate the Recreation Department. Around 20 members of the community addressed the council, which also opted against outsourcing programs to the YMCA.
"All the community people who spoke were in favor of keeping the city's youth programs," said Councilman George Gastil, who voted against axing the department.

A community leader and historian contends that the City's proposal to eliminate its recreation department is a lemon--and that residents will be squeezed.
By Helen Ofield, president, Lemon Grove Historical Society
April 26, 2011 (Lemon Grove) – [Councilman] Tom Clabby has given permission to release to you his response to Howard Cook's bizarre email. Please see below. Cook, who ran as a budget wizard, is evidently unable to fathom the same budget figures you and I have been reading.
Poison pen letters like the one to Tom, wild statements to media (Channel 10 a couple of days ago, Union-Trib, etc.) to spread inaccurate statements, skewering long-time, skilled, city employees, attempting to divide the council on trumped-up fiscal issues -- all of this is a throwback to the bad old days when we suffered with a rogue councilman, who also touted himself as a financial wizard. The said rogue has long since been discredited, but not before nearly destroying the Senior Center with his budget mismanagement. In other words, history is repeating itself.

Those functions include leasing recreation buildings to community groups and operating city events, such as the holiday bonfire and concerts in the park. Staff will present its report to Council on May 3rd.

Metro riders in Montreal got quite an eyeful recently when the co-called 'bird lady' started plucking a winged creature on her ride home. Of course when the story gets passed down the line it turns into the woman gutting and eating the bird raw. Not true. Christina David told a podcast show it was a ptarmigan she received and was a real treat and couldn't wait to get it prepared before she got home. Obviously this an example of where cultures collide where Montrealers aren't aware of the Inuk culture. It's a misunderstanding but an act from which both sides can learn. Hopefully Ms. David will be more sensitive to other riders in the future and people will be less ignorant and insensitive by calling somebody 'crazy' for something we don't understand.

CIFF 2019 preview
tags: Aleli, Chicago International Film Festival, CIFF 2019, David J. Fowlie, film, Forman vs. Forman, Initials S. G., review, The Cordillera of Dreams, The New Bauhaus
The 55th Chicago International Film Festival (CIFF) kicked off this week and like the last several years, I will definitely not get to see all the films I'd like to. This is where goals are interrupted by reality. Traditionally, my goal is to view as many of the programmed films that I can manage to fit into my own life schedule. Of course, the reality is I am never able to fulfill such goals since there are entirely too many films that I'd like to see, making the task nearly impossible. Nevertheless, I persist each year and inevitably wind up rewarded with enriching viewing experiences. Below is my take on five films that I've seen so far and you can expect more coverage in the near future as I see more films.
My approach to CIFF viewing has typically been to cover foreign films and documentaries, since many of the "Spotlight" or "Gala" presentations have already been picked up by major studios and will soon be released theatrically. That's what you'll find below.
The first are two films are from the CINEMAS OF THE AMERICAS program, which
highlight vibrant work of voices from South and Central America, Mexico, and the Caribbean. Indeed these two films are definitely vibrant and unique, showcasing great performances and intuitive writing and distinctive tones that make me crave for more films from Argentina. The other three are documentaries that take a look at the impact of a distinctive region of land or the impact of a passionate and influential artists.
ALELÍ
directed by: Leticia Jorge Romero,(Uruguay/Argentina), 88 min.
Uruguayan filmmaker Leticia Jorge Romero co-wrote a wonderfully astute screenplay with Ana Guevara Pose, and the result is a touching and relatable look at family, specifically the passive-aggressive friction between adult siblings. The title represents those siblings: AL for Alba and Alfredo, E for Ernesto and LI for Lilián, all of whom are relatable characters we're introduced to as this story unfolds. ALELÍ is also a name that still hangs in front of the family's beach house, which is up for sale after their father and family patriarch has recently died. While this sale has kept them and elderly mother peoccupied from mourning, their grief surfaces in both subtle and obvious ways, as their dysfunctional communication comes to an inevitable head. The screenplay is populated with rich characters who are portrayed by a cast who deftly navigate a balance of potent drama and deadpan comedy. The film is a spot-on look at a family at an uncertain time, involving nostalgia, longing and grief in sensitive and humorous ways. (Spanish with subtitles)
Saturday, October 19th at 12:00 pm (director Leticia Jorge Romero and actress Romina Peluffo in attendance)
INITIALS S.G.
directed by: Rania Attieh & Daniel Garcia, (Argentina/Lebanon/United States) 98 min.
Sometimes there's one singular element that will draw me to a festival film. Without knowing anything about the Argentina-set "Initials S.G.", the sole selling point was when I realized Julianne Nicholson was in it. Having recently seen her in "Monos" and being a fan of her previous work, I was both sold and curious when I saw that she was in this hilarious and twisted dark comedy from writing/directing pair Rania Attieh & Daniel Garcia. Set during Argentina's bid for the World Cup, the film follows Sergio Garces (Diego Peretti), a struggling Buenos Aires actor is at the point in his career where he can only find work as an extra in movies or in porn. It could be because he's approaching middle-age status or due to his anger issues, either way his luck is about to take a turn for the worse when his nose is broken while riding his bicycle. Sergio is introduced to a confident and attractive American film publicist (Nicholson), who he eventually gets entwined in sexual and precarious adventures with while becoming a magnet for trouble and misfortune. The film's influences may be apparent (it unfolds like a Coen Brothers film and traces of Scorcese and Godard are apparent), but it has a contagious unpredictability that's invigorating. It left me curious and interested in past and future work from all involved. (Spanish with subtitles)
Saturday, October 26th at 5:45pm & Sunday, October 27th at 6:45pm
THE CORDILLERA OF DREAMS
directed by Patricio Guzmán, (Chile/France), 85 min.
What you'll remember about Patricio Guzmán's latest film is how the titular geography region is stunningly captured. The narrator poetically reflects on "The Cordillera", the immense presence of the Andes mountain range that hugs Chile, as a constant witness to all that the people have endured in the past under tyrannical dictatorship and the changes that the present has brought. Fascinating in its viewpoint and in how it offers an up close and personal ground-level view of Santiago's history, Guzmán offers a passionate look at loyally and devotion to one's land as well as a commitment to chronicling how the lives of its people are affected by local government and economic turns. An enlightening documentary that is dDefinitely worth checking out on the big screen. (Spanish with subtitles)
Sunday, October 20th at 6:00 pm & Tuesday, Oct 22nd at 1:00 pm
FORMAN VS. FORMAN
directed by Jakub Hejna, Helena Třeštíková, (Czech Republic/France), 78 min.
If you're only familiar with Milos Forman's great American films, such as "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, "Amadeus", "The People vs. Larry Flint" and "Man on the Moon", than this documentary is recommended viewing. Here is a documentary which offers a look at his breadth of work, from the distinctive filmmaker's interesting Czech films to his Oscar-winning Hollywood films, all while providing viewers with a greater understanding of Forman on a personal level. Through candid home footage, interviews with colleagues and family members, as well as past conversations with Forman himself, "Forman vs Forman" is a documentary that reveals what exactly went into the director's creative process and how he and his films will be remembered.
Saturday, October 19th at 11:30am & Monday, October 21th at 2:45pm
THE NEW BAUHAUS
directed by Alysa Nahmias, (USA), 89 min.
Every year there is at least one documentary set in Chicago at CIFF and this one sheds light on some fascinating art history that occurred in the Windy City. The focus is on Hungarian artist László Moholy-Nagy, a one-time member of the German Bauhaus art school and how he created a new version of it when he moved to Chicago in 1937. Not only does the film offer a detailed look at the life of this radical artist, it also captures an absorbing look at what art education looked like in the past.

Thiruvananthapuram: To avoid any inconvenience in travelling, Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has asked scheduled domestic airlines to mount additional flights to Kerala after the closure of the Coachin airport.
"Out of 71 arrivals and 74 departures of scheduled domestic airlines to or from Cochin, 23 arrival and 24 departures have been rescheduled and additional 19 arrival and departures have been mounted to or from Trivandrum, Calicut and Coimbatore airports. Nine foreign carriers operating to Cochin have also rescheduled their flights to or from Trivandrum," read a statement from Ministry of Civil Aviation (MoCA).
Scheduled domestic airlines have also been advised to ensure that airfares for flights to or from Trivandrum and Calicut airports in Kerala and nearby airports -Mangalore and Coimbatore - are kept at an optimal level proportionate to sector distance.
Accordingly, airlines have been requested to cap the maximum fare around Rs 10,000 on longer routes and around Rs 8000 on shorter routes to or from Kerala and nearby airports.
In addition to that, DGCA is also constantly monitoring airfares on 32 direct routes operating to or from Trivandrum, Calicut, Coimbatore and Mangalore. Spike in airfare on a few routes has been observed. Concerned airlines have been advised to cap the airfare on these flights.
DGCA has also convened a meeting with the higher management of domestic airlines today in this regard.
As per the statement, Control Room set up by DGCA is working 24x7. Passenger-related issues pertaining to the refund of air ticket, rescheduling of flight, alternate options available to them are being addressed.
Kerala has been witnessing incessant rainfall over the last few days, causing unprecedented flooding and landslides in several parts of the state. So far, 324 people have lost their lives due to flood, Chief Minister Officer (CMO) of Kerala said.

School board considers addition to Brookview Elementary
An addition to Brookview Elementary School in Woodbury could be coming sooner than originally expected. Board members have begun conversation about adding additional classroom spaces to address new housing development in the area, which is occurring faster than originally planned.
The city of Woodbury originally planned for nearly 80 acres of land east of the school to be developed after 2020. The city is now exploring development adjacent to the school, which could see construction beginning in 2019.
District leaders knew the school would need to grow as the neighborhood around it expanded. The 450 capacity school was intentionally built in such a way that classroom spaces could be added on easily. Core areas of the building were oversized including the gym, common areas and cafeteria to accommodate up to 600 students. The school board even attempted to add additional classrooms to the building as it was being constructed, but because plans had already been approved by the Minnesota Department of Education the addition was denied.
Administrators are recommending that the board take action in the coming months to approve an addition to the school. Three different options were presented to the board, which could increase the building's capacity by up to 200 students. The cost of the construction would be between $3 million and $5 million depending on the option chosen.
Up to $1.5 million of the project could be paid for with proceeds from the recent sale of Washington School and a parcel of land in Afton. Should the board decide to sell additional buildings, such as Marine, Withrow or the Central Services Building, those proceeds could also be used toward construction. A lease levy, which is the same funding mechanism used to pay for the Early Childhood Family Center, could also be utilized to pay for the addition.
The board has taken no action at this time, but will consider the recommendation and have further discussions in the coming months. Administrators are also conducting a new demographic study to provide updated enrollment projections to the board to consider in their facility planning.

Winland learned from many in his rise to head coach
November 30, 2017 ChronicleAdmin News, People, Sports Comments Off on Winland learned from many in his rise to head coach
There's a new man at the helm of the Rocky Mountain Grizzlies this winter, but he's certainly not a new face.
Longtime assistant coach Pat Winland started practice Monday as the new head boys basketball coach at RMHS, taking the reins from longtime head coach Michael Simmons, who took a job with the LDS Church in California this summer after coaching the Grizz for 12 seasons.
Nine-year assistant coach Pat Winland (left) has assumed the reins of the Rocky Mountain Grizzlies from Michael Simmons (right), who has moved to California.
Winland had been Simmons' right-hand man for nine of his 12 years, and he coached two years at the middle school level. He has also served as head football coach at RMHS and coached track and field at the middle school, as well.
Thus, Winland is no stranger to Rocky Mountain athletics, and he knows the basketball program well. Such was his effectiveness that he was named last spring as Boys Basketball Assistant Coach of the Year by the Wyoming Coaches Association.
Winland said he has had many mentors including Simmons, his father, Ralph, brothers Tim and Rod, and coaches who taught him like Gus Gerhardt and Ron Osborne.
"Michael taught me to put the program first," he said, "to make decisions based on what's best for the program and team before the individual. As a staff we need to do that. It benefits everyone.
"I've encompassed what I learned from Tim, Rod, Michael, by dad and all the other coaches I've had like Mr. Gerhardt and Coach Osborne. From Michael I learned to put the organization first, from my dad I learned to keep it simple. Tim taught me to coach when I was real young, and Rod was a big help teaching me the ins and outs of coaching.
Coaches Osborne and Gerhardt taught me fundamentals, and how important they are."
Asked about his philosophy, Winland said he will run a more patterned offense in half-court sets, with more screens, than in the past, but the Grizzlies will also capitalize on their athleticism and "run as much as we can." He added, "We'll look for the three-point shot but will emphasize getting the ball inside more."
There are 25 players out for the squad this year in the form of five seniors, three juniors, four sophomores and 13 freshmen. Four starters return in seniors Jonathan Allred, Tristan Jewell and Lathan May and junior Ethan Price. Senior Colby Davison saw lots of playing time, as well.
Assistant coaches are Jerry Bellmyer (JVs) and Justin Moss (freshmen), as well as volunteer Jeff Samson.
"I'm excited," Winland said. "I'm ready to go. The staff is ready to go. We had a good practice last night (Monday).
"I'd like to thank the administration, school board and Mr. Hocker (supt.) for giving me the opportunity. I couldn't pass it up."

Addressing Defensive Needs Is Important Despite Defense's Record of Success
By John B Apr 16, 2012, 9:29am EDT
Share All sharing options for: Addressing Defensive Needs Is Important Despite Defense's Record of Success
By pretty much any measure, the Jets had a really good defense last year. They gave up the fifth fewest yards in the league. That is impressive in any context, but it is unbelievable when you consider they played seven games against opponents with top ten offenses and eleven games against offenses ranked in the top half of the league. The defense was one of the best even though it played against one of the least favorable schedules in the league.
The unit might not have been as dominant as it was in 2009, and there were glaring holes at safety and linebacker. On the whole, the Jets were able to overcome these issues. You might say that the team gave up too many points, but that is because the offense gave the ball away a ton. The Jets actually allowed 7.8 points per game off turnovers. Think about that! The offense was spotting the other team more than a touchdown a game. The defense itself allowed 14.8 points a game, a very good number.
The offense was clearly the issue with the Jets a year ago. They were better equipped to get around their problems on defense. The holes at safety and linebacker are more important to fill for the Jets than they would be for most teams in the same spot, though. It has to do with the competition.
The New England Patriots are built to eat teams alive that cannot get to the quarterback without blitzing and have suspect safety play. They have a quarterback as good as anybody in the league at diagnosing and carving up blitzes and a pair of athletic tight ends who torture slow safeties. AS things exist right now, this offense is built well to take on the Jets. This is no accident either. The Pats and Jets have been playing an elaborate game of chess for years in the way they have constructed their rosters. The Jets drafted Nick Mangold because the Pats had Vince Wilfork. The latest incarnation of this came with the Randy Moss trade. Many observers felt Tom Brady force fed the ball to Moss too frequently and ignored his other weapons. This could spell doom against a team that had corners who could take Moss away like the Jets. The Moss trade moved New England to a more balanced offense built on tight ends, much more favorable against the Pats' main competition. This is not to say it was the only reason New England traded Moss. There were many factors, including a diminishing skillset and contract uncertainty, but the way it impacted the head to head matchup with the Jets likely played a role.
Considering how the Pats have looked the last few years, they seem like a virtual lock for 12 wins as long as everybody stays healthy. The Jets pretty much need to sweep New England to have any chance at winning the AFC East. The rest of the league will not be much help. In the Rex Ryan era, the Pats have a .571 winning percentage against the Jets in the regular season and Playoffs and a .760 winning percentage against the rest of the league.
There might be isolated games where a blitz heavy look gets to Brady, but he will eventually figure out a defense, lock in on a favorable matchup, and do damage. His safeties will eat slow safeties like Eric Smith alive. The Jets need to beat the Pats to win the division. They need to win the division to avoid an exceptionally difficult path to the Super Bowl. Ergo better safeties and pass rushing outside linebackers are necessary.

CCU's first Student Fulbright opens first theatrical show in Nepal by Connor Uptegrove
Mural painted by CCU art class brings 'faith, hope and charity' by Nicole Pippo
S.C. Arts Commission celebrates 50 years, with CCU front and center by Mike Kane
"I have always been interested in the [physical theater] format, and I came to Nepal thinking that there would be a lot of physical theatre here," said Peter Seifarth (center). "Since there are a lot of languages spoken here, I had imagined that physical theatre was often used to overcome the language barrier. It was an odd surprise to realize that the theatre scene here is very verbose."
CCU's first Student Fulbright opens first theatrical show in Nepal
by Connor Uptegrove
After a year of researching physical theatre practices in Nepal on a Fulbright grant, Peter Seifarth, a 2017 theatre arts graduate, will return to the United States after directing his first professional physical theatre piece.
"Physical theatre has the unique advantage of sharing stories cross-culturally, by virtue of the fact that you can use universal movements, gestures or attitudes understood by anyone," said Seifarth, who studied in the physical theatre track of Coastal's esteemed BFA program.
Originally from Young Harris, Ga., Seifarth was the first CCU student to win a Fulbright grant. He created an entirely nonverbal show that uses physical theatre to tackle complex ideas and relevant social issues, such as advocacy for women in the Nepali community.
Even after directing professional theatre in Nepal since July 2017, Seifarth still refers back to his education at Coastal.
"CCU's theatre program taught me how to be an artist, first and foremost," said Seifarth. "It taught me how to take risks and to learn from failure."
While Seifarth was taught to learn from failure, his production in Nepal has seen only success.
His first production abroad, "Witch," revolves around the concept of witchcraft and its superstitions in Nepali culture. The show was the culmination of his Fulbright study and research project. It was held at the Sarwanam Theater in Kathmandu and ran for a week.
Seifarth hopes nonverbal physical theatre can be a tool to reach broader audiences from all cultural backgrounds and languages.
Nepal has more than 120 languages spoken as a mother tongue, so "it was the perfect place to experiment with making theatre that can be understood by everyone," said Seifarth, who speaks only minimal Nepali.
An example of the inclusivity of "Witch" could be seen during the last dress rehearsal of the performance, to which more than 100 deaf students were invited to watch.
Seifarth created the show with the help of Roshan Mehta, a Nepali actor he met during his yearlong study abroad trip to Italy during his junior year. Seifarth and Mehta worked at the Accademia dell'Arte, training and experimenting with highly physical movements in the theatre. Accademia dell'Arte is a vibrant arts community in Arezzo, Italy, and a partner institution with CCU.
Seifarth was so impressed with Mehta's talent that he developed an appetite to see Nepali theatre firsthand.
To apply for the Fulbright grant, Seifarth composed a research question applicable to the theatre he strived to create: how can artists use the universality of physical theatre to share more stories with a broader audience?
With his experience in Italy and Nepal, Seifarth has become an enthusiastic advocate on following a dream abroad. He encourages students who study abroad to remain humble and open-minded.
"You will be the face of your country, so represent it well by employing compassion and understanding toward those who are different from you," Seifarth says.
Seifarth returned to the U.S. in May; however, he will not take for granted the cultural understanding he has gained from living abroad. He believes that art is a perfect method to cultivate that understanding. "It can allow us to acknowledge the universal principles that unite us, while also paying homage to our own cultural traditions"
