From a corporate event planner's point of view, humor is a kind of go-to entertainment choice because most of the time it helps create the most engaging corporate events.
However, besides the fun it brings to small and large gatherings alike, humor can be used to serve other purposes for a company.
So in this article, we are going to outline a few of them.
Engaging corporate events present a unique ability to create the perfect background for networking and unwinding.
Moreover, if there is something an event organizer can do to provide a good time for their guests, it is having a comedian perform at the event.
If we take into consideration the many benefits of laughter, we have to say it can be an excellent vehicle for conveying information in an effective manner.
Which further means stand-up comedians can become your partners in building a better company culture. They know how to channel the good vibes and then command attention to deliver either a meaningful message or keynote content.
Vickie Sokol Evans – empowering productivity trainer with fantastic comedy skills, as well.
Humor at engaging corporate events can also be leveraged to serve as a prop to your human resources department.
During a stand-up comedy act, the performer can talk about loyalty, time management, interpersonal relationships at work (and other similar topics) without guests having the impression they are given a lecture.
The key is to invite a relatable speaker, someone who has been through it all and knows the ins-and-outs of corporate life, as well as actual solutions to how teams can blend in and work in tune.
Carl Hurley – the education Ph.D. who is a star at any corporate convention.
By 'well-rounded' we mean 'having a natural flow,' and 'flow' is often generated by a balanced distribution of acts.
The technical talks can be demanding, so you need to think of a way of helping participants keep their focus and not check out during the process.
This is where you can leverage humor: you place the comedy acts in-between the information-packed ones.
Leveraging humor at your corporate events can give you a secret upper hand regarding company culture.
You can play with the idea of humor gigs and organize frequent corporate events where you can invite keynote speakers on tech, growth, business development; the key is to look for those professionals who do not rely only on technicalities but on humor, as well.
We provided a few suggestions above, but if you are willing to explore, you can access the full list of corporate speakers and try to see who fulfills the perfect profile you envision for your events.

It's worth noting that in 2019 Indian astrology and yearly Vedic horoscopes, Scorpio is often referred to in Sanskrit as the Vrishchika Rashi, meaning Scorpio sign. However, signs tend to shift backwards by one from western to Vedic astrology due to differences in the way charts are cast. Thus, almost all western Sagittarius zodiac sun signs are considered Vedic Scorpio or Vrishchika rashi, while most Scorpions are actually considered Vedic Libra, or Tula rashi in 2019 Vedic horoscopes. The rule of thumb is that if you are born in the last five or so days of your sign, it doesn't change. Scorpio's western astrological month runs from October 24th through November 22nd while the Vedic Scorpio month runs from November 17th through December 15th.

Nancy Campbell, photographed by Mark Walton.
I interviewed poet, art critic and environmentalist Nancy Campbell about her Arctic residencies, her climate change projects, and her work supporting threatened cultures. Shortlisted for the Forward Prize Best First Collection, Nancy is also an innovative printmaker who has won the Birgit Skiöld Award. She was a Marie Claire 'Wonder Woman' in 2016 for activities including the Arctic Book Club and The Polar Tombola, an interactive live literature event. Nancy's latest book, The Library of Ice, a blend of cultural history, nature writing and memoir, is published by Scribner UK.
Leslie: Can you describe your artistic residency with Upernavik Museum, Greenland, and how your encounter with this community has informed much of your subsequent work?
Nancy: I was invited to be Artist in Residence at Upernavik Museum in the winter of 2010. The expectation was to create a new work for the community during my time on the island. The intention was to respond to the anthropological collections in the small museum, and to the wider environment – the ice-filled expanses of Baffin Bay and the imposing mountains along the coast.
It was a great privilege to live among the community on Upernavik. I was warmly welcomed and the islanders I met supported my work as much as any of the objects in their museum. Since few of the islanders spoke English, I received some informal lessons in Greenlandic, and the language offered me many insights to the culture. I wanted my work to gesture to the uncertain future the islanders faced due to the rapid changes in climate and in society. As one example of this situation, in 2010 the national language was assigned vulnerable status in UNESCO's Atlas of World Languages in Danger.
My interest in the language led me to create How To Say 'I Love You' In Greenlandic, a book I hoped would be equally accessible to the islanders and to my English readers. It is an alphabet book, but one aimed at adults, rather than children. In this dual English-Greenlandic work, the words illustrating the letters of the Greenlandic alphabet spell out a love story to the environment, and a narrative of the effects of climate change on individuals living on the ice edge. It was a challenge to see how few words such a story could be told in, but as a poet used to working in a compressed form, I found the challenge immensely exciting. Each Greenlandic word is accompanied by a hand-printed image of the icebergs which I saw during my time on the island.
Leslie: You trained as a letterpress printer and typefounder. Can you explain what that involves and the artistic work & collaborations it has led to?
Nancy: I left university following three years of studying English Literature wanting to know more about how the books I'd been reading were made. I was especially interested in the crafts that were used to publish books up until the twentieth century, in which the individual worker's hand, and skilled eye, were still relevant.
At the time there were very few places to study traditional book arts. Eventually I found a master craftsman living up a mountain in the Canadian Rockies, who was willing to share his knowledge with me. I lived with Crispin Elsted and his family for a year, learning how to set metal type in a composing stick, how to handle ink and paper respectfully, and absorbing the principles of good book design. Although the studio was out in the woods, and very isolated from the modern world, many wonderful people made their way to it, such as the artist Abigail Rorer and the poet and type designer Robert Bringhurst.
Since that apprenticeship, I've been fortunate to work in letterpress print studios around the world and have collaborated on projects with a number of artists. This form of publishing words excites me – there's so much opportunity for artistry. I feel strongly that if you care about what you write, you should also care about how it looks on the page. Making a book by hand is a slow process and inevitably connects the writer, and the reader, more closely to the words. One of the collaborations I am proudest of is a series of projects with the New York artist Roni Gross. She has created some highly imaginative artist's books engaging all five senses in response to my poems.
Leslie: Can you describe your innovative literature projects to engage audiences with environmental issues, please?
Nancy: I feel very strongly about environmental issues, and I respond in the best way I can – through language. But I am all too aware that the message of many literary works stays within the arts world and doesn't impact on wider society. I strive to find new arenas for performance and playful means of sharing ideas. This might be using an alternative publishing format, or creating public events that overturn the traditional model of the writer standing and reading for an hour to a silent crowd in favour of more egalitarian approaches.
For example, I created The Polar Tombola as a participatory art project that encouraged people to empathise with the experience of speakers of endangered languages. While learning Greenlandic, I realised that the detailed vocabulary for objects like ice enshrines much traditional knowledge about the environment. As the vocabularies of endangered languages diminish, this may affect people's ability to speak about nature, to understand it, and thus to preserve it. The Polar Tombola was set up at events around the UK as a game during which I asked people, 'If you had to lose one word from your language, what would it be?' The question prompted many thought-provoking conversations about language, self-expression and censorship. Common words discarded included 'Hate', 'Sorry', 'Like' and 'Tory'. I was surprised by how many people wanted to banish words for political parties or movements they disagreed with, and sometimes I challenged the speaker: do you not need to keep the word in order to fight the concept you oppose? All the words people offered me were carefully collected and published in an anthology The Book of Banished Words, alongside newly commissioned works by poets, writers and artists including Will Eaves, Vahni Capildeo and Phil Owen.
I hope my work can contribute to developing people's love of language and sense of intrigue in learning about the world. I love reading books about the Arctic and to share that pleasure I set up a book club a few winters ago. Originally meeting around the fire in a small second-hand bookshop in Oxford, it's now developed into an international group that comes together online – you can follow on Twitter: @ArcticBookClub.
Leslie: What have been the stand-out moments from your Canal Laureate work? How has it shaped your writing and what have you learned from it?
Nancy: It's been an incredible year working with the Canal and River Trust and The Poetry Society to spread the word about the waterways. I have used the Canal Laureate role as an opportunity to write about my experience of the canal network as a kayaker. My interest in the sport meant I was already familiar with the waterways and was able to access them for research easily – and at mallard-eye level. I've loved every excursion, whether an outing for fish & chips on the calm Kennet & Avon Canal in Bath, exploring the wide and silty Ouse flowing above York, or a community canoe litter-pick on the River Lea in East London. However, the highlight has to be the week paddling the Leeds & Liverpool canal, the longest in the UK, and talking to those who live and work along it.
One of the ways it's shaped my writing is through the commissioned poems. The Canal and River Trust might provide a specific subject. For example, a poem was requested about rain, which will be painted onto towpaths in hydroponic ink (which only shows up when it's raining); another about a shy species of fish which lives in the Severn estuary. I'm sometimes asked for poems to celebrate particular sections of the canal, in Milton Keynes and Nottingham for example. When writing for myself, I'm often tempted to wait for inspiration to strike, but with a commission I know I need to discover that spark within the chosen theme. It is an incentive to look even more closely at the world.
Usually, I tend to write many drafts before I'm satisfied with a poem, leaving time between each for the words to settle and become unfamiliar. Due to deadlines during this residency, I have learnt to write quickly and impulsively, and let the work go when it's still freshly made. This was hard to reconcile myself to at first, but I've found it very liberating. And in some cases impressionistic results were desirable! For example, the text I wrote for films created by the artist Pierre Tremblay, The Cut and Gastower Park, about the Regents Canal, needed to echo his impetuous, energetic narrative.
Leslie: You've a poetry collection, art criticism and narrative non-fiction. Which do you enjoy most, and why?
Nancy: One of the most enjoyable areas of my work is writing about art; my father was a sculptor and art historian, and my mother a weaver and painter, so my first understanding of the world was visual. I'm fascinated by the highly individual ways artists present their ways of seeing the world, and finding words to describe this is a wonderful challenge. In the last few years I've written essays for catalogues, such as Bill Jacklin's exhibition at the Royal Academy, or on the prints of Louise Bourgeois, Francis Bacon and Lucien Freud at Marlborough Fine Art. I'm particularly interested in artists who respond to polar landscapes – something I cover in my book The Library of Ice: Readings in a Cold Climate. The beauty of icebergs and glaciers is so hard to recreate in any medium, and I'm deeply curious about the work of those who attempt it.
Leslie: Finally, what have you learned from your travels and artistic/writer's residencies?
Next week I interview independent film-maker Molly Brown, winner of the Golden Trellick Award at the Portobello Film Festival.

The Traveling Salesmen: Ansel B. and Howard H. Donohoo, Part II
This post is part of the Donohoo Descendancy Project.
Brothers Ansel B. and Howard H. Donohoo were born the ninth and tenth children of Michael and Caroline (Green) Donohoo. They were grandsons of Patrick and Sarah Donohoo (although they would have been very young when their grandparents died). They grew up in a Catholic family that ran a temperance tavern in Bardstown, Kentucky. Both men enjoyed entertaining friends through musical and dramatic performances, both at church and other social occasions. They moved together to St. Louis as young men in their 20s and worked for several of the same companies as traveling salesman. Both brothers married, but neither had children. Their stories have been traced through numerous newspaper mentions of their travels and theatrics.
Part 2: Howard Hynes Donohoo (AKA H.H. Donohoo)
Howard H. Donohoo was born in June of 1859, in Nelson County, Kentucky to Michael and Caroline (Green) Donohoo [1]. In the 1860 Census, one-year-old Howard resided in Nelson County, Kentucky, with his parents Michael and Caroline, four brothers, three sisters, his maternal grandfather and five boarders [2].
By 1870, Howard was 11 years old, residing in Nelson County, Kentucky, with his parents Michael and Caroline, four brothers, two sisters, and three boarders [3]. By 1880, Michael Donohoo had died, leaving Caroline as the head of household, with 21 year old Howard, four other sons and one daughter living in the household. Howard worked as a clerk at a wholesale grocery [4].
By 1882, H. H. Donohoo is listed in the St Louis city directory, as a traveling salesman for Yarnall Bros. [5]. On April 23, 1884, Ansel B. Donohoo married Ada Wood in Nelson County, Kentucky. His brother, Howard H. Donohoo, acted as surety [6]. By the next year, Ansel is also in St. Louis working for Yarnall Bros.[7] Thus begins the brothers' circuitous routes for their business travels, as documented in hotel patron newspaper lists:
Between 1882 and 1891, Howard's sales circuit includes: Memphis, Tennessee [8]; Louisville, Kentucky [9]; Atlanta, Georgia [10]; Wilmington, North Carolina [11]; and Charlotte, North Carolina [12].
In the 1891 St Louis city directory, Ansel B. and Howard H. Donohoo are listed consecutively as traveling for the Taylor Manufacturing Company [13]. In April 1891, Ansel and Howard visited their mother, Caroline, in Bardstown [14], as was their annual tradition [15].
Howard's social engagements and entertaining nature made note in the newspapers during these years as well: [16]
Between 1891 and 1900, while still anchored in St. Louis, Howard's sales circuit included: Wilmington, North Carolina [17]; Asheville, North Carolina [18]; Raleigh, North Carolina [19]; Houston, Texas [20]; and New Orleans, Louisiana [21].
Sometime around 1901, H.H. Donohoo changed to a non-traveling sales position based in New Orleans, Louisiana with the Preston & Stauffer tea department [22], and then with the N.O. Import Co., Ltd.[23].
In April of 1905, Howard visited friends in Atlanta, who, by newspaper account, had missed his company: [24]
By this time, H.H. Donohoo was 45 years of age, widely known and traveled throughout the South, and still single.

Q: c++ std::stack top returning reference I'm working on a multi threaded demo app to test some program profiling tools for my company.
I spawn two threads and have a mutex to control access to a stack of objects.
I believe the top() function is returning the reference and not a copy of my object to my threads... subsequently when I release the mutex after accessing the stack the other thread grabs the mutex. Something odd is happening.
A
std::stack<polygon> * polygonList = new std::stack<polygon>();

threadedFuntion()
{
    polygon p = polygonList->top();
    polygonList->pop();
    ReleaseMutex(polyListMutex);

    // preform point in polygon check
    bool done = false;
    while(!done)
    {
       done = p.doWork();
    }
}

The program works when its structured like this
B
std::stack<polygon> * polygonList = new std::stack<polygon>();

threadedFuntion()
{
    // preform point in polygon check
    bool done = false;
    while(!done)
    {
       done = polygonList->top().doWork();
    }

    polygonList->pop();
    ReleaseMutex(polyListMutex);
}

But then its not releasing the mutex until its done doing its work.
I want the threads to grab a copy of the polygon object, take it off the stack, and release the mutex, then continue on doing its work.
EDIT I'm following this guide for mutexs and threading
EDIT Overriding operator=
polygon& polygon::operator=(const polygon &obj)
{
    if (this == &obj)
        return *this;

    std::cout << "equals";
    pa = obj.pa;

    return *this;
}

A: You haven't really given enough information, but I'm going to assume polygon::pa is some sort of pointer to an array of points, or worse, a pointer to a std::vector or some such. In your assignment operator (and presumably, your copy constructor), you are just copying the pointer, so that when the copy constructor is invoked on this line:
polygon p = polygonList->top();

... p has the same pointer as the top element in polygonList.
When you then call polygonList->pop(), the top polygon in polygonList is destroyed, which likely calls delete [] pa. Thus, p will now have a pointer to deleted memory.
You should make sure you understand the rule of three and its modern versions, rule of five and rule of zero. Once you've understood those, consider making pa a vector of points (not a pointer to a vector of points), or if you insist on taking a more manual approach, at least use a std::unique_ptr.
Also, in your example there is no reason to use std::stack<polygon> * polygonList = new std::stack<polygon>(); just say std::stack<polygon> polygonList;. It is shorter, clearer, and more correct. It looks like you are trying to program Java or C# in C++. Learn to love the stack and automatic resource management instead of manual approaches to resource management.

A: When you use top() you are getting a reference to an object on polygonList. When you use pop() you are removing that same element from polygonList, which calls that elements destructor in the process and any reference to that object is no longer valid.
In your code it looks like you are creating an object polygon and setting it equal to the reference returned from the top of the stack. I'd make sure that polygon has a proper copy-constructor that is performing a deep copy (if necessary).
When you debug it, what happens to the member variables of polygon p after you pop the top element off of your stack? That should give you some insight into what is happening.
Another thing to consider, in the "bad example" you could have multiple threads in the "do work" section of your code. Is that section of your code thread-safe? Are there other arrays or objects being accessed by that code that are common among the threads that could be causing issue?

Colorful self-made billionaire H. Ross Perot dies at 89

Posted By TheNewsCommenter: From News.yahoo.com: "Colorful self-made billionaire H. Ross Perot dies at 89". Below is an excerpt from the article.
DALLAS (AP) — H. Ross Perot, the colorful, self-made Texas billionaire who rose from a childhood of Depression-era poverty and twice mounted outsider campaigns for president, has died. He was 89.
Perot, whose 19% of the vote in 1992 stands among the best showings by an independent candidate in the past century, died early Tuesday at his home in Dallas surrounded by his family, said the spokesman, James Fuller.
As a boy in Texarkana, Texas, Perot delivered newspapers from the back of a pony. He earned his billions in a more modern fashion, however. After attending the U.S. Naval Academy and becoming a salesman for IBM, he went his own way — creating and building Electronic Data Systems Corp., which helped other companies manage their computer networks.
The most famous event in his business career didn't involve sales and earnings, however. In 1979, he financed a private commando raid to free two EDS employees who were being held in a prison in Iran. The tale was turned into a book and a movie.
"I always thought of him as stepping out of a Norman Rockwell painting and living the American dream," said Tom Luce, who was a young lawyer when Perot hired him to handle his business and personal legal work. "A newspaper boy, a midshipman, shaking Dwight Eisenhower's hand at his graduation, and he really built the computer-services industry at EDS."
The death of a 3-year-old boy in a restaurant's underground grease collection tank has prompted two state lawmakers to draft new safety legislation.

20 May 3 Key Real Estate Issues to Watch as NYC Fights It's Way Back From the Pandemic
Posted at 20:11h in Insights	by	RESA NYC
By: James Nelson
As the New York City real estate market fights it way back from the pandemic, there are three key issues to watch which could have a major impact on the how buildings are built and operated in New York City:
1) The expiration of Affordable New York
2) Good Cause Eviction and
3) the proposals for the conversion of office or hotels to residential.
The political landscape which will help shape these issues has no doubt changed over the years, with a major shift to the left in Albany. There is now a Democratic super majority in the New York State Senate with a 43-20 position. After Governor Cuomo seemingly stepped aside to let the Housing Stability and Tenant Protection Act of 2019 pass, it seems the State Senate may very well be driving many of these issues.
For starters, The Affordable New York 421a plan expires in June of next year. Under this program, thousands of new units were created. However, critics of the plan say that too many of the developers utilized option C, where 30% of the affordable units were at 130% of the Annual Medium Income. Those affordable units are available to those families making over $100,000 who could in turn pay $3,397 for a two bedroom. Some would not consider those type of units truly affordable.
Those looking to overhaul this plan want more deeply affordable units. On top of that, I'm hearing that prevailing wage could be back on the table. Previously that labor was only required for projects in Manhattan south of 96th Street or along the Brooklyn and Queens waterfront. Trades are pushing to expand this for the whole city. Combined with greater requirements for affordability, any drastic revisions to this 421-a plan could bring a halt to construction.
Given the current state of the City and occupancy, land prices in Manhattan have already dropped 40% from before COVID-19. Construction lenders are understandably weary. That all being said, New York City no doubt needs deeply affordable housing, but without proper subsidies it just won't get built. The fully affordable projects generally apply to land that sells for under $50/BSF where developers are only earning fees on the construction as opposed to developer's profit. Clearly landowners in more desirable areas will not throw in the towel to sell at these levels out of the goodness of their hearts.
Meanwhile, the discussion of Good Cause eviction in the State Senate is an equally scary proposition. The name certainly seems like a worthy cause, but let there be no mistaking – this is universal rent control. Under the proposal, landlords would only be able to increase their market rate rents by the lesser of CPI or three percent each year by the greater of three percent or 1.5x CPI unless they go to court and petition for a higher increase. Given the landscape of the landlord tenant courts, I certainly wouldn't see landlords rushing in to do so if this was ever passed; it would likely be expensive and futile. Luckily, we are hearing that the State has too much on their plate this year and with the eviction moratorium being extended until August, there isn't a great need at the present.
Regardless, the more regulation that applies here the less likely that developers will build new product or investors will renovate old product. If you look at any of the urban land studies, the answer to having more affordable housing is to build more units!
One salvation for landlords might be RSA & CHIP's court case deriving from the Housing Stability and Tenant Protection Act, which makes the argument that government is unfairly shifting the burden to provide affordable housing to the private sector without compensation. If Good Cause is passed, it would certainly support this case. It will be very interesting to see if this case makes it to the Supreme Court. Right now it is sitting in the Federal Court of Appeals.
On the good idea front is allowing the conversion of commercial or hotel buildings to residential. Our Governor came out with a proposal to allow the conversion of office or hotel buildings to residential provided that 25% was affordable. That ultimately was not adopted into the State budget with exception of $100,000,000. Senator Gianaris is now proposing that the money be spent to buy a building or two to let a not-for-profit run as fully affordable units. That unfortunately won't get them far. The cheapest Manhattan office building that sold since the pandemic still went for over $600/SF. Once you factor in renovation costs of $300-400, they might get 200 units if they're lucky, a drop in the bucket.
I actually do like the idea of bringing the SROs back. Mayoral hopeful Andrew Yang mentioned this. By allowing some of these now defunct hotels, built narrow and deep on the lot with multiple rooms per floor, to now allow permanent housing seems a lot more sensible to me.
That being said, Yang also proposed $32 billion for affordable housing. Based on Howard Husack's NY Post OpEd, his plan is very light on details and could lead to more spending with not much to show for it in the way of new housing.
Above all, having a strong mayor at the helm will be key to New York City's future and having a pragmatic voice at the table. I am hopeful that we will have a record turnout for the primaries on June 22, which could be the most important race in New York City's history.

In early 1997, the orchestra made a tour of the Northeastern United States under Levi's baton, including a concert at New York's Carnegie Hall, termed "a performance for the ages," by reviewer Bill Zakariasen. The Atlanta Symphony Orchestra is now in its 53rd season.
Called "a blend of astrology and mythology, austerity and voluptuousness," Holst's The Planets is an orchestral showpiece. Taking the listener on a journey to seven planets, the music ranges from the ominous rumblings of the planet "Mars" (whose rhythms were said to have frightened Holst himself) to the ethereal mystery of the final movement, "Neptune." It's a sonic trip to outerspace, without leaving the comforts of planet Earth.

Extra funding to help councils deal with Brexit is a 'drop in the ocean', the leader of Reading Borough Council (RBC) has warned.
Unitary councils like RBC will be given £210,000, spread over two years. 'to prepare for an orderly exit from the EU' and carry out 'contingency planning'.
James Brokenshire, secretary of state for Housing, Communities and Local Government, said local government will play a "critical role" in making a success of Brexit at the local level.
RBC leader Joe Lovelock said the council had concerns over how Brexit will impact on services if people feel that they need to return home.
A total pot of £56.5 million was announced on Monday to help councils carry out preparations, with further funding to come after Britain leaves the EU.
James Brokenshire MP, secretary of state for Housing, Communities and Local Government, added: "This funding will help councils to adapt to changes caused by Brexit, while still protecting vital local services.
Theresa May will attempt to renegotiate the withdrawal deal with EU leaders, after parliament voted to seek alternative arrangements to the backstop.


Ireland's Eventing team produced an outstanding Cross Country performance at the FEI World Equestrian Games in the USA on Saturday, to climb five places on the leaderboard and into silver medal position heading into the final phase of competition on Monday.
The Irish team of Cathal Daniels, Sam Watson, Pádraig McCarthy and Sarah Ennis were seventh after Dressage on Friday, and made substantial progress up the leaderboard on Saturday. A bit like punters who backed Manchester City on Saturday and had done a betfred sign up earlier that day.
Sam Watson got Ireland off to an incredible start when going clear with Horseware Ardagh Highlight (ISH).
Cathal Daniels, the youngest competitor in the competition at 22 years of age, also jumped clear with Ríoghan Rua (ISH), adding just 3.6 time penalties.
Pádraig McCarthy added another clear with Mr Chunky and at that stage Ireland were in bronze medal position.
Sarah Ennis with Horseware Stellor Rebound (ISH) matched their team-mates perfect performance, and their clear round moved Ireland ahead of France and into second position.
Britain holds the lead on 80.8, with Ireland second on 89.0 and France in third on 91.8. Japan is just outside the medal places on 100.9 and in fourth place of the 15 teams taking part.
Sarah Ennis is in the bronze medal position in the individual competition on a score of 26.3, less than one fence behind German leader Ingrid Klimke (23.3), while Britain's Rosalind Canter is in second on 24.6.
Pádraig McCarthy lies in seventh place on a score of 27.2, Sam Watson is in 25th (35.5) with Cathal Daniels in 28th (37.6) while Irish individual rider Patricia Ryan is 64th with Dunrath Eclipse (ISH).
The final Show Jumping phase of the Eventing competition has been rescheduled to Monday due to Tropical Storm Florence.

The elementary part of the city
Renato Capozzi – The elementary part of the city
CLICK HERE La parte elementare della città_REV
ABSTRACT – The paper reflects on some methodological and operational experiences carried out in the last century and also on the notion of "elementary part" as a method of construction of the residence in the contemporary city in relationship to the nature. The discourse, moving from the Enlightenment's antecedents as the Squares and Crescents or through the analysis of some projects by the masters of the Modern Movement – also as a critical review of some of his initial assumptions – tries to classify the practice of construction of the city that renounces to the compact city system made by urban blocks, streets, squares and gardens and offers complex neighbour units with large extension and services and free portions of natural soil inside. This hypothesis, that opposing the nineteenth century city, is manifested in projects and constructions that significantly recover the principles of the classical city in a renewed relationship with nature / landscape and with the dialectics between residence and civil centres. An idea of "open and polycentric" city able to contrast the spread of the nebulized city, but without proposing a mere densification but identifying certain repeatable units able to absorb the fragments of the sprawl of the contemporary post-metropolis. Furthermore, this hypothesis can be applied also in some areas of the consolidated city to reintroduce, in its core, selected portions of nature.
The proposed classification is divided into the following sections:
– The classical cities as polycentric city;
– The compact city as unique or whole artifact;
– The city of the Enlightenment: from the square to the courtyard blocks;
– The city of the Modern Movement: utopias, principles and methods;
– The new dimension: quartal, quadras, urban sectors;
– Examples by the masters: Le Corbusier/Hilberseimer/Mies/May;
– The neighbourhood as a self-sufficient part: Libera/Cosenza;
– The idea of the city as set of defined parts: Rossi/Aymonino;
– The idea of polycentric city and elementary part: Monestiroli;
– Development prospects in the periphery and in the consolidated city: Bisogni.
The suggestion structure is defined by investigation of the logical urban composition and by paradigmatic examples taken as reference. CLICK HERE La parte elementare della città_REV

Architectural knotting
Duilio Cambellotti, L'inizio (The beginning).
The awareness of being able to use primary and universal characters in new architectural organisms, built with innovative techniques, responding to new needs and aesthetic values, constitutes the essence of the transition of European architecture to modernity. Buildings constructed according to these principles represent the vast majority of the renewal of cities in the first forty years of the XXI century. The modern movement experiments, even if useful to explore new ways, are, in fact, a minor and not fundamental part in the real urban transformations, above all in the areas of more rooted masonry-plastic culture.
This explains. for example, how it was possible such an evident continuity in the development of architecture in Italy in the interwar period, even in political conditions inducing a rhetorical interpretation of the historical heritage.
These are durable building organisms, using architectural layouts that are still vital precisely because they have not conformed, over time, to a specific function. They are "generic" organisms in the etymological sense of the term, capable of generating whole families of multiple, new architectures.
Many modern buildings (such as universities, schools, postal buildings) tend in different ways, in continuity with historical processes, to form a society of solidary spaces linked by a common purpose and a common rule. This rule is indirectly derived from the transformation of fabrics, through the permanence of typical structures such as convents or palaces. The beginning of this modern process can be clearly identified in the "urban necessity" of linking the building to the external paths, tightening it, at the same time, around an open space that tends to become the true nucleus of the forming process.

5. SPECIAL BUILDING LEARNED LANGUAGE
5c – The genesis of the Roman palace, one of the most fruitful events in the entire history of European architecture, indicates a different path to the formation of modern architectural organisms. A phenomenon that can be read clearly in its manifestation as the becoming of the manifold to form unity. As for the Venetian palace, the process that is at the origin of its particular character is not due to the contribution of a small group of architects, but constitutes the collective, living result of the transformations operating in the fabric. It comes to light from successive mutations of the housing aggregates of medieval origin and from the permanence of that ancient substratum which, in Rome, has always constituted an inexhaustible source of renewal.
Its formation process began with the recast, in the 14th-16th century, of simple single-family dwellings to satisfy the need of building new large-scale residences for the emerging political and economical classes.
In the context of an already densely built city, the only one possibility was the progressive acquisition of fabric units, linking them together through a common private, inner path.
Thus, around the central space of the courtyard that brings together the original pertinent areas, a sort of "reversed" fabric is formed, a small introverted city that takes its characters from the external city. The transition from aggregate to building is expressed by unifying the external facades into a single wall merging the single buildings in a common rhythm of openings. The process also establishes a hierarchy between the different parts: ………………..

NOTES ON BASE BUILDING
"PROFFERLO HOUSE" IN ROME
G.Strappa
The most successful examples of a congruent and proportionate overlap of the modern city with the ancient one is in large part due to the "recasting process" of the existing urban fabric. The act of recasting is not the simple union of elements, it is a plastic modification, a collaboration that implies a structural mutation: the merging and gathering of the individual units into a single whole, into a new unity of a higher degree. The Renaissance palace is, when it derives directly from the fabric, a critical recasting, made with the decisive contribution of the architect who operates the aesthetic synthesis at the end of a "necessary" process. To fully understand its meaning it is essential to mention, at least, the matter of this recast, which, in many areas and especially in Italy, consists of single-family houses. A particularly significant example, from this point of view, is the form of the dwelling house in the Roman area, whose roots date back to the types used from the XI century, in an environment that, due to the low population density, could be considered in large part semi-rural (26).

THE AGGREGATION PROCESS AND THE FORM OF THE FABRIC
Course in Urban Morphology (2019/20)
G. Strappa
The form of the Italian city produced in the Middle Age, often derived from the consumption of decayed ancient urban organisms, expresses the solidarity between housing units that join together to form higher-level organisms.
This organic character, which binds in one unit different components (the route, the building, the pertinent area) in a "society of houses" is certainly the shared heritage of a building and urban custom that was born in the Roman world and is, in turn, linked to a cultural koinè that belongs to the Mediterranean masonry -plastic world. Tacitus had clearly focused on this subject by noting, by difference, the "serial" character of Germanic settlements: "Vicos locant non in nostrum morem conexis et coherentibus aedificiis: suam quisque domum spatio circumdat, sive adversus casus ignis remedium sive inscitia aedificandi" (1). The type of housing at the origin of most of the formative processes of the Italian cities developed starting from the XIII-XIV century is above all the row-house, declined in different local variants in the whole peninsula, from the Venetian types that translate into masonry building organisms originated from wooden courtyard matrices, to the markedly plastic examples of central and southern Italy.
This type of dwelling, which communicates through its own forms the predisposition of the single building to collaboration and aggregation, is remarkably constant, It is identifiable in its transformations process, within the different cultural areas, both in the bicellular type (to which reference will mostly be made), and in the monocellular one derived from the consumption of the courtyard house (pseudo row-house)…….

Members of the Oregon Nurses Association, who've been working without a contract since the end of June, appear to have resolved their differences with management at Mid-Columbia Medical Center.
Nurses at Mid-Columbia Medical Center in The Dalles appear to have resolved their labor dispute with management.
They've reached an agreement on a new three-year contract, the Oregon Nurses Association announced. Its members will vote on the deal next week.
Not many incentives for nursing faculty to remain and salaries too low for young nurses.
Oregon's behavioral health workforce is "critical" to healthcare transformation but the numbers of those licensed last year was inadequate to meet the need for integrating physical and mental health, Oregon's Healthcare Workforce Committee was told.
In the end, nurses at Providence Newberg Medical Center won a lopsided victory to be the last Providence acute-care hospital to join the Oregon Nurses Association on Thursday night.
Frontline workers, from housekeepers to certified nursing assistants, at PeaceHealth's Sacred Heart hospitals in Springfield and Eugene are trying to unionize to improve staffing and boost their wages and benefits.
Will 150 Newberg nurses be the last from Providence to join ONA?
Providence Newberg Medical Center is the last acute-care facility in Providence's Oregon network that lacks union representation for nurses.
That is likely to change Thursday when the hospital's 150 nurses will vote in three private sessions, the last one closing at 9 p.m.
The 42-16 vote in favor of HB 2541 came over the objections of the Red Cross and Rep. Alissa Keny-Guyer that there's no evidence that blood drives with nurses are always safer than those without one.
The House approved a bill Monday that will require a nurse or physician at all blood drives with just a few exceptions.
However, the same rankings showed that physicians didn't make it into the top ten list when the figures were reported by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Medical professionals in Oregon are extremely well paid compared to their colleagues in other states during 2013 – particularly registered nurses, physician assistants and nurse practitioners.
January 23, 2012 -- Kathy Moon, a nurse practitioner at Dunes Family Health Care, is one of the lucky ones whose practice hasn't closed down or had to slash services because nurses now make less for performing the same functions as physicians.
Not that her patients wouldn't notice the strain on her practice, she points out. But while it doesn't affect her personally, being on a salary, it does affect the clinic's ability to hire help in the office.
January 24, 2011 -- The nurses at St. Charles Redmond voted in favor of ratifying their three-year Oregon Nurses Association contract Thursday.
January 12, 2011 – Hospital executives at St. Charles Medical Center in Bend and Redmond have had a tough go lately with the unions.


I finished all 3 volumes last weekend. I am still living in the world created in 1Q84. Such is the effect of Murakami's writing. And well, I still visit the world of the wind up bird chronicle, the only other Murakami book I have read. So the books make you climb in their world and make you want to live there. What. An. Achievement. For any writer this is a feat. And for any book lover its a treat.
So without getting into any more Murakami praise, I will stick to task at hand i.e. trying to review the book.
Book 2 is essentially a love story, of Aomame (uh-oh-mah-me) and Tengo. They are trying to find each other after the intial premise setup in book one. Do they really meet and how entangled their reality is best left to the reading experience. In the process, Murakami takes the concepts/ideas in book one, 'little people' 'air chrysalis' 'other world' to the metaphysical level. Even if interpretations are best left to the imagination, I am really looking forward to discuss these ideas with someone, who has read the book and will not call me insane.
Parallel universe is a reality in this book. True to Murakami writing, it has all pop cultural references that even a non-japanese reader can easily relate to. There is a recurring reference to 'The Thomas Crown Affair' and I felt strangely nostalgic. Not just that the peculiar music that keeps on playing in Aomame and Tengo's lives, their music taste, the attention to detail in these descriptions is just mind blowing. If there is one thing that constantly impresses me about Murakami's writing (hey! I am already a fan!) is his this very ability. He compels you to look at day to day objects/things/occurrences with minute and open eyes. Since last weekend I am looking at the moon every night. The moon which has a special significance in Aomame and Tengo's story.
In this book, a lot is told about Tengo's personal life, his relationship with his estranged father, his thoughts about his mother. As Tengo is exploring his own life, we journey with him, finding out one detail at a time. Light is thrown on the bestseller book that Fuka-Eri wrote and Tengo ghost-wrote. The sense of mystic around Fuka-Eri and her background continues. The reader gets to journey through Japan as well. I think for all these reasons Murakami is the best Japanese ambassador out there.
I will agree with Vivek by questioning the difficulty of reviewing a Murakami book and try to end this futile attempt. With my limited life experiences, I can only say, Murakami's books should be savored by every fiction lover. One should enter his worlds and then look at her surroundings. And then ask in which year they really live.
Ok. I do have to read Murakami now . and I mean it.
