Staging Utopia. Stage Archive: Intervew To Rosa Barba

Stage Archive is the title of an exhibition cured by Chiara Parisi and Andrea Villani shown at Mart (Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Trento and Rovereto) until August 28. In this exhibition Rosa Barba explains and reinterprets the historical archives of the museum in which futurist documents and works are stored.
Rosa Barba was born in Agrigento, 1972, but she now lives and works in Berlin. Lately her personal exhibition at the Tate of London ended and last year she was awarded with the "Nam June Paik Award". She is one of the most appreciated artist of her generation. Her research is always precise and sharp. It aims to the dissection and fragmentation of the cinematographic language to obtain its minimal grammar unities. It is a sort of surgical re-invention of the medium: projector, light, celluloid, frame, text, so
und, images, every element becomes, in the imagination of the artist, alive again, as an independent part of an organic whole, under a sculptural and performative perspective. Cinema can then reborn as a space of interpersonal relations, dialogue, sharing, collective vision that often dissolves in the contemporary range of use or, to quote Francesco Casetti, within the "re-locations" of the post-media era.
Rosa Barba seems to put into spectators' hands linguistic fragments of the cinema of the origins like they were letters of an alphabet used to rewrite what was considered the great visual utopia of the twentieth century.
Thanks to a project carried out by the Mart in Rovereto, in collaboration with Fondazione Galleria Civica di Trento, the artist comes to Italy with a personal exhibition divided in two different spaces. In Trento there are some of her most recent works such as Private Tableaux, Let me see it, One Way Out and some of her new works like White Curtain, which is a phrase carved in white felt that introduces the exhibition. In Rovereto there are three site specific works, which were ideated and realized by taking into account the space of the museum.
The importance of taking into account the museum space was so strong that it is possible to read on the central stairs' walls that lead to the exhibition floors a sign that leads to a potential and virtual museum. We could even call it 'fictional' to pay homage to André Malraux. No Titles , made with the institutional lettering of the museum, is in fact a sort of pleasant disorientation inside the museum itself.
"The Observer is always in the International centre of things for the study of Futurism" – writes the artist referring to the basement, perceived from the stairs of the first floor as a huge central cavity, as a vacuum at the centre of the building that increasly sinks as the higher floors are reached. It is right there, at a step from the archives where the museum's heart and brain live, that we meet two sculptures made by the artist with the aim to put on stage utopia and the visionary immagination of the avante-gardes at the beginning of the century.
Theory in order to shed light is a diptych made of felt. On one side texts and graphical elements are carved. They come from Fortunato Depero's sceneries of movies that he never produced. On the other side there is a rectangular cut that reproduces the white frame, a visual and conceptual element that is typical of Rosa Barba's research. The light passes through the felt and projects on the wall, where the shape of letters and geometrical figures become absolutely visible. It's like the light goes beyond the screen and reinterpret some of the cinematographic historic avant-garde visionary ideas, like the one that breaks the limits imposed by the frame of the shot and by the frame of the screen itself..
Although those utopias have nowadays become possible due to the malleability and ductility of electronic and digital media Rosa Barba preferes to put on stage desire, the power of imagination, the visionary force, the "not yet" that leaves any opportunity open, the emptiness that preceeds any beginning and that contains all the energy of the creative gesture. It's like a blank page, or a not exposed film, like the ones of Stage Archive, the huge circular sculpture that named this exhibition.
It is an archive on stage, that follows the perfect avand-garde style of the machinic aesthetics and that reproduces a sort of concert performed by many voices, a "mechanical ballet" of emptyness, where the most important things are not the documents in the archive, but the gap, the interval, the absence that allows the creation of new imaginative scenarios.
I had the pleasure to meet Rosa Barba at the Mart museum, in its suggestive rooms, rigth close to her works. Our conversation, aimed to retrace some of the key elements of her research, started exactly from there, from that emptiness, that could also be perceived as a beginning…
Rosa Barba: In my opinion emptiness can always become action. It is a way to put energy on stage. Instead of adding something, I prefer deducting. Fragmentation characterizes all my work. I always look for those points and gaps in the history of the place where I find myself to wornk in. Even in my longest movies what interests me is a trace of the story that has not been documented yet, a story that somehow already exists but is still not part of the real story.
Giulia Simi: In your work, the document is another element that shares with the emptiness a sort of vital energy and creative potential. The object-document is not at the core of your attention. It is rather the invisible gap between one document and the other what interests you.
Rosa Barba: You're right. In my movies, for example, even the landscape represents a document. Every trace is a sort of document that constantly changes. The document is never something still for me. For istance even people can be documents. In my movies the actors do not have to play a part. They are people in the middle of the story. In the movie I shot on the Vesusio (Split Field) there are people who survived the last eruption. Well, for me those people are that scenario's document. It is this document that captures my attention and that is also linked to the mise-en-scene, to the creation of potentialities.
Giulia Simi: What does working in the field of cinema as a medium mean for you? In a previous interview you stated: "The film is not the most open medium of all, but I like the limitations that it offers." This statement proves a very different attitude from the one of some video arts pioneers who hoped to be able, through the electronic media, to go beyond the limitations imposed by the cinema and create something completely new. But for you it's rather the opposite. Is the limit itself a space for creativity?
Rosa Barba: Yes, in almost all my movies I have to deal with limitations, also temporal ones. If I have for example a 10 min film and I have to put everything on stage then I have to try to edit in real time which also means I have to be careful with what I film. Another important thing is the sound. The noise that the camera makes when I turn it on has always been extremely important for me. It is part of a sort of performance that you miss during the video. And then there is the huge amount of material that has to be handled. The video implies endless opportunities to create something. These opportunities however make difficult sometimes to understand what the key moment is.
Giulia Simi: And then I guess there is the material aspect that you must consider. The film, the projector…
Rosa Barba: Yes, precisely. Cinema has a sculptural value for me. Yet this aspect gets certainly lost during the video. There is a sort of interactivity with the physical medium that is able to create another sort of space. It is then possible to find a moment for a shared vision, for an action that can be experienced with the public. I consider this dialogic aspect fundamental. There is a sort of performativity in the relation with the spectator and between spectators themselves. It's the collective vision. And it's extremely different from the typical fruition of digital media, for which you can buy a DVD and watch it at home, alone. It is a very different thing.
For 15 years I have been working with movies and I can say that its fade is an extremely recent event. Since the beginning I followed the world of film festivals, which maintains the dialogic aspect alive through the discussion after the vision of the movie. Nonetheless I have always been attracted by the performative aspect, the transformation of such action. I began very soon to work with installations, in order to put on stage also machines. In any case my work is always in progress. I never think of my works as something finished, I like to think of them as something travelling, in constant metamorphosis.
Giulia Simi: Let's talk about your felt sculptures. The projected light on the wall reminds of cinema. But they also remind, in my opinion, of the memory machine, often described by scientists and philosophers, e.g. Freud, through the metaphor of the writing leaving traces on a surface. In your case the writing pierces the surface…
Rosa Barba: Exactly, like if it was something negative. I consider they are like instruments that have to pass through the negative in order to become visible.
Giulia Simi: There is also the matter of the cut, which is more likely a wound..
Rosa Barba: Yes, it is. But I never thought about it. First of all the work was a research about the frame. Each letter finds its way out through the material, which could also be found through the drawing. In any case the letters are burnt by the light. For me it's like finding my way out from the cinematographic system. A way out from a specific system of functioning to look for another type of language.
Giulia Simi: And then there is the colour white, an element that always comes back in your work. What does white represent to you?
Rosa Barba: It is like the reset button. It is a gap, but it's also resetting. When I started my first movies, I used the colour white to bring the narration into another level. I used white to fragment the story. When I used two or three stories at the same time, the white is useful to create different levels. It was very powerful because it was able to lead to new temporalities, and for that reason I always considered it extremely important. Then I began to use it exclusively. I said to myself: "All right, let's take off everything else and leave the white". And I made a lots of sculptures with only white standing out on the background.
Giulia Simi: And what about black…
Rosa Barba: Black for me is like a break, it's like taking a breath, while the colour white is like a jump towards a new form of imagination. Just like in Stating the Real Sublime, where I hung the projector on its own narration, on its own film that tries in this way to create the white.. I researched a lot about this visual element. As you can see also here – it is the first time I use two felts in a composition – I presented it again through the rectangular cut of the second felt.
Giulia Simi: Last question about the concept of archive. This concept has been fundamental in this exhibition which is a dialogue between the historical archives of this museum. However, the same concept seems to be present also in most of your work, in which a relation with the past is often present. I am thinking about your movies on underground architecture. There is a sort of digging, an attempt to bring back to light something uncovered…
Rosa Barba: Yes, it's true. The archaeological work, the digging in order to discover something always comes back, over and over…
Giulia Simi: It is a very different operation from using found footage or images found and presented through editing, like some filmakers do. It is like a metaphorical, symbolic work…
Rosa Barba: Absolutely. In fact I never use found footage. Editing has a different value for me. It is action, or what happens in front of the public. Even here, with the archives I had, I did not care about extracting some documents, but rather about getting inspired by them. I study and observe them in order to create a new artwork.

Physicists around the world are theorizing that reality as we know it may just be one big hologram. That means, the 3-D objects you see around you aren't actually 3-dimensional. At the moment, this is just an idea. But a team of physicists and researchers at Fermilab are conducting an experiment to try to find evidence that such a theory is possible. Joining us to explain is Craig Hogan, Director of the Fermilab Center for Particle Astrophysics and professor of Astronomy and Astrophysics at the University of Chicago.


The half-naked Ohio woman arrested earlier this month after she led cops on a high-speed chase that reached 128 mph appears to have gained many male admirers due to the alluring combination of her lead foot and G-string/see-thru top ensemble.
But police car footage of 28-year-old Erin Holdsworth (seen at right) may damage her growing online popularity.
As seen below, a dashboard camera in a Bainbridge Township Police Department cruiser captured Holdsworth, a mother of three, emerging from her vehicle after the October 11 chase. The video--which is NSFW--shows Holdsworth unsteadily walking backwards from her 2002 Mazda at the shouted direction of a cop.
Since 25 minutes of the police footage is without sound, it is likely that Holdsworth's total epithet count was significantly higher.
Charged with, among other things, drunk driving, criminal damaging, and eluding police, Holdsworth is next due in Chardon Municipal Court on Wednesday at 10 AM. Holdsworth, whose rap sheet includes two prior DUI collars, was actually wearing an ankle bracelet that monitors alcohol intake when she was nabbed by Bainbridge cops.

Abstract: This article provides a critical review and discussion of current literature on technology transfer and academic entrepreneurship. Drawing upon the notion of robustness in social systems and public choice theory, we review, code, and taxonomize 166 studies in order to assess the likelihood that these initiatives will generate innovation and economic growth. We find that academic entrepreneurship initiatives are characterized by conflicting goals, weak incentive structures for universities and academics, and are contextually dependent on several factors, e.g. strong vs. weak universities. Our results therefore suggest that there are critical boundary conditions that are unlikely to be fulfilled when universities and governments enact policies to support academic entrepreneurship. Policymakers therefore need to be cautious in the potential design of such mechanisms. We discuss how technology transfer from universities might be better achieved through alternative mechanisms such as contract research, licensing, consulting and increased labor mobility among researchers.

Legal Consultant Limelight: Sabina Lippman
By Katrina DeweyOctober 25, 2016November 29th, 2016Legal Consultant Limelights
"Best in the business."
"A game changer."
"The real deal."
My, oh my, has legal recruiting changed. Not so long ago, prestigious partners were loathe to acknowledge they even knew a recruiter.
Today? Some of the nation's most acclaimed lawyers can't gush enough about the guidance they've been given to find a better fit for their skills. Those quotes above? They're about one recruiter, Sabina Lippman, of Lippman Jungers in Los Angeles.
She and her business partner and husband, Mark Jungers, have rocked the recruiting world since forming their firm in 2011, combining her experience with a couple of Southern California's more prolific firms and his leading Major Lindsey & Africa's Chicago office. Their deal sheet is to die for, and spans New York to Shanghai with individual partner moves and staffing of AmLaw250 offices.
We talked to Lippman about her success, which – no surprise – was far from overnight.
Lawdragon: Tell me a bit about your background and how you got into legal recruiting?
Sabina Lippman: I earned my undergraduate degree in mechanical engineering at MIT, and then an MBA there. I went to Ford in Detroit and Dearborn, Michigan, for five years and did powertrain planning and realized I was not a car person. You have to love cars to do that, and it was also very hierarchical. If there were 37 levels, I was a seven. If you think law firms are hierarchical, try Ford.
So I went to law school, at the University of Michigan. Richard Posner wrote that law school should be a two-year program and a one-year internship. Law schools would lose a lot of money, but that would have been a better program for me. I quickly realized once I started practicing that working by the transaction and not by the hour is a much better fit.
LD: I think a lot of law graduates feel the same way. But unlike a lot of lawyers who get lost, you found your way to recruiting after working at a couple of firms and in an entertainment business. What was your thinking?
SL: To be candid, I realized I had a lot of debt from all my degrees and had never focused on optimizing my income. I had thought I'd go to work in human rights or women's rights, but realized I needed to make money. I had a friend at the time who mentioned recruiting as a possibility.
I went to work for an L.A. recruiter who wasn't set up to do much volume; you can't build on that foundation. So I went to work at Watanabe Nason because I was looking for a serious brand for partner placement. I was there for eight years, the last five as a partner. I left in March 2011.
LD: You must have learned a lot of lessons that you put to good use when you opened your own firm.
SL: We had our best year ever the first year of Lippman Jungers and we've been going up ever since. I learned a lot at each place, from the importance of forming personal connections to creating yourself as a peer of the lawyers you want to place. I also worked with recruiters with really impressive standards of productivity, from which I learned the number of candidates you have to represent at a given time to make the number of placements you need. We have refined and added to those ideas, and created a better system.
LD: That's interesting. Can you elaborate a bit on how systematic you need to be in the exclusive ranks of recruiters?
SL: We can't share all our secrets of course, but a key philosophy – which is true for every successful person heading a recruiting company – is I have a cold call target every day and every week. And during periods where we are significantly exceeding our projections, I can relax those numbers.
We target keeping in touch with people and sustaining long-term relationships, which are calendared at particular intervals. Our team backs us up creating lists that we customize and update every week. We do a lot of work in Asia, too.
In the U.S., we meet with folks and show them the landscape they could look at, and explain how things could be different for them. We have various tools that allow us to customize this for each partner, and also a lot of stuff stored upstairs after 16 years that gives you an instinct or feel for what would make sense. We have gotten to know the people and styles of our clients and what would work or not on a personal level. It is a combination of systems and experience.
LD: It sounds like you put your MIT background to very good use.
SL: It's very helpful. I'm really comfortable creating programs and charts to show what different scenarios look like to candidates.
I'm highly systematic, where Mark is a lot more social in his way of working with candidates. We both share years of experience of doing big group deals and having a lot of institutional knowledge. Mark loves golf, tennis and wine, and this creates a great bond with a number of candidates who would not be interested in going to bootcamp with me. So while our methods overlap, we vary along those lines.
LD: Do you have a sweet spot with recruits?
SL: I don't think anyone can afford to have a sweet spot. I really like to make money, so I can't just make a couple placements in my sweet spot each year. You can hang out with people in certain practices and talk a lot, but they still aren't going to move if the time isn't right. So you really have to methodically work the whole spectrum.
That being said, we typically work in the AmLaw 100, AmLaw 200 spectrum as that's more easily translatable from firm to firm. But you also have to look at individual people, with a multi-part strategy. It's really fun to do deals and work with people at the highest level, but you still need to have bread and butter.
Our California practice is roughly one-third Northern California and two-thirds Southern California. We also do work in New York, Chicago, Miami and Asia.
LD: A trend in law firms seems to be cutting equity partners, either their positions or their compensation. Do you see a lot of that and is there much you can do to help?
SD: We do have lots of those situations. But it doesn't mean the lawyers are bad. It means the firm is prioritizing others. They still may be very valuable to other firms.
There are lots of times where unfortunately the person isn't marketable and there isn't a value placed on them in this market. In many circumstances it's our job to know what firms are prioritizing and sometimes make things happen in a hurry – many times we are working on a deadline.
Compensation is starting to be announced into the next couple of months. That prompts lawyers to call us, and we call them too. Most of the time lawyers tend to be more reactive than proactive. They want to keep their day job, and won't be thinking about optimizing their situation. Instead, they tend to focus on the client and doing the work.
LD: What's your favorite thing about being a recruiter?
SL: Of course, I really like doing a huge deal. But more long term, I really enjoy being able to show someone a landscape they wouldn't have known existed and have them discover an opportunity they wouldn't have known about.
And I love getting a call a few years later when someone calls to say, "I'm so happy." That's really great too. And I remember that long after the deal closes. For someone I did help to get a better job and to become more successful economically and practice-wise, and to feel his or her life is going in a different direction, that's great.
I remember in particular a female partner, and when I met her, I said "You're incredibly talented. Why are you at x firm and in leadership at 36? You're spending huge amounts of time on management, which you can't use to build your book, so your compensation is lower than it should be." When I met her she was making $275,000, and I told her I could help her get to $1M by 40.
I ultimately placed her a couple of times. Sometimes it's difficult to get from A to C in the first shot. She went to B, which could have worked, but they were conservative coming in the door and she wasn't as aggressive in negotiating (or allowing me to do so) and having confidence in her numbers. After her second move, she is now a practice leader at the right time in her career, has a substantial practice, is working with very meaningful clients, leading business development events and enjoying life. Admittedly I was a year off on the $1M – she got there by 41.
Another guy, I met as a junior partner in a local firm, buried below big name trial lawyers. I knew at our first meeting that he had the hustle and business savvy to become a rainmaker. He was not happy at his firm and was considering opportunities outside law. A dozen years later, he has a number of marquis clients and a practice in the eight-figure range and feels like the master of his destiny. It was exciting to be part of that climb.
It's also rewarding when a partner insists that a recruiter is not necessary for the right move, but ultimately comes around. This happens all the time. On one recent occasion, I stalked the partner for weeks. He finally met with me and cautiously agreed to allow me to represent him, even to firms where he felt he was already very close to management. He wound up getting three amazing offers, and told me that the firm he chose would not have been a top choice in the beginning, but ultimately was the best fit (and best offer). We spent about 10-15 hours a week talking about this decision in the last two weeks and it was great to get a very kind and heartfelt thank you. I've since heard from the managing partner that he has been a superstar.
Finally, doing a big deal along with team members is awesome. We have some super talented recruiters who have become close friends – a number of former lawyers. It's fun going into the trenches as a team and celebrating if we are lucky enough to come out victorious.

Years ago, I used to be an avid Cosmopolitan reader (magazine not website).
But, with all the different life style/dating/relationship portals online, there are tons of places to get info!
So, when I saw the Cosmo article-slide show "10 Dating Truths You Can't Ignore", describing various male dating patterns, I forgot how much…I Love My Cosmo!!
Have you dahlings ever experienced any of the above "Dating Truths"???
p.s. Thank you to my recent SIMC darling Jaime from La vie…J'aime. I won her giveaway and just received it!!
Cosmo is still my favorite. That is a good list.
It would have spared me a lot of trouble a long time ago.
HAsn't happened to me, but I agree with most of the points listed.
Truth #5: No woman in a healthy long-term relationship has ever said, "Gee, I really wish I'd slept with my man sooner."
That is hysterical because a lot of it is so true!
i have totally done #1 !!!
Truth #8 is so trueeee,err myabe 100 times harder?
well i exagerrate a lil bit okay?
#4 holds true if you met through an online dating service as well. A lot of men will say "you're great, I don't want to date anyone else" but check their online profile to see if true.
My hubby, who I met me online, told me this after the 2nd date — guess what? He took down his profile by the next day. It was nice to know that some guys mean what they say and don't play games.
Great advice and wish I'd had it much earlier.
OMG. These are so true.
So so so true! I love it!
I've only just begun reading Cosmo over the past year, and have fallen in love. Sadly, almost every guy I have ever dated falls under category # 7. I have no clue why I even put up with it – I loathe ex talk!
My sister loves Cosmo. I'm a guy and I can say that many of these are true.
Truth #4 sort of contradicts Truth #9. If we're "women & not livestock" why do we have to wait for the guy to make the first moves?? I don't agree with that at all but that's just my opinion.
LOL @ guys who think cat-calling actually works. The other night a group of my friends got whistled & kissy-faced at by some loser walkigg past us. I stopped, turned around & said "PLEASE ENLIGHTEN ME AS TO WHEN THAT HAS EVER WORKED FOR YOU." He basically ran away hahaha.
Number 6 is actually not that bad. I do that when I spend the night over my girls' house or if I have to do change unexpectedly (like a casual friday turned into an impromptu presentation).
Haha, these are great! I'm in the same boat with #1 (ugh) and all I can is WORD to #2!
These are hilarious MG…and oh so true.
Mmmm, you are making me hungry with your prize. Congrats!
These are hilarious. I especially like the one about the exes. I had that with a platonic friend. All the friend's old co-workers/acquaintances were "someone I worked with for a year, she wasn't that great" and stuff along those lines. I finally said, "When are you going to start talking about me that way?" The answer: After a year!
This is so much truth to this, I can't help but smile as I'm reading it!
and looking for a marital affair or married dating.


This six-story, 24-unit project was the second affordable housing structure in the country built to "passive house" standards. It features six units designed for disabled residents. The project includes a rooftop terrace and rear parking lot, but most notable is the energy efficiency of the building. Knickerbocker will consume just 10% of the energy normally consumed by a building of its size. It features a wedged foam and stucco facade that shades windows from the sun in the summer, collect rays in the winter and provides insulation, as well as energy recovery ventilators, triple-pane, 700-pound windows and lining that covers the building putting it past the national passive standard.

AMY'S STORY
Our Amy Foundation was established in January 2018 in the memory of Amy Vigus, with the purpose of educating the local community on the misuse of recreational drugs.
We hope that by spreading the message of Our Amy we can prevent further such tragedies.
We kindly ask for your donations, no matter how small, in order to help us to raise drug awareness in the local community and schools through talks and presentations. We will also advise the public about the risks of recreational drugs and the affects they can have on the individual and their family. We also continue our support of Colchester General Hospital (Colchester Hospital Charity) who were incredible in Amy's final hours. In particular, the donations will provide funding for the Colchester Intensive Care Unit (ICU) for provisions of equipment. In September 2019 we donated £5000 to the ICU to help towards rehabilitation equipment. In total we have raised £15000 for Colchester General Hospital since August 2017.
Our Amy Foundation is based in Amy's home town of Colchester, Essex and run entirely by the family and close friends of Amy. We have set ourselves the goal of making her proud and helping to prevent this happening to others – charity work was close to Amy's heart and she'd want us to continue her charitable work.

My uncle, Richard Borthwick lived in Invergordon from about 1946-1951. This is one of several photos of him and his Invergordon pals during this time - the Invergordon location should be obvious.
The Daily Mirror of May 23rd 2016 carried a story about Richard still playing competitive football in Weymouth where he now lives. 80 years old!!!
And it was his early football in Invergordon that played such a big part in his love of the game and has kept him so young at heart!

Good parents usually have a sixth sense for who's a good match
By Caleb Hannan • September 2, 2010 12:00 am
Good parents usually have a sixth sense for who's a good match for their kids and who isn't. David and Marilyn Jondle were by all accounts great parents; he a reformed cubicle warrior and she a stay-at-home mom who both worked 200 acres of farm land in Dallas, Oregon. Neither approved of their son Andrew's new girlfriend. Now, after their gruesome deaths, it looks like the Jondles may have been right to be suspicious.The woman the Jondles were wary of was one Cindy Lou Beck. At 46, Beck was more than twice as old as 20-year-old Andrew. She was also a convicted thief who'd lost both her kids to state custody. And, if we may be so shallow, she probably didn't resemble the woman they imagined their baby boy ending up with.David, Marilyn and Andrew Jondle during happier times.Neighbors say Andrew and his parents were a loving family until Beck came along. Unsatisfied with their life in Silicon Valley, the couple moved to Oregon in 2000 to start Abundant Life Farm, where they raised free-range livestock.Andrew was described as a friendly, if quiet, boy. The youngest of three sons, he was the last one at home to help his folks around the farm.Once Beck entered the picture, Andrew and his parents fought constantly about the relationship. Two months ago, he moved out of their place and in to hers. David and Marilyn responded by cutting him off financially and taking back his car.Despite what looks like a poor maternal track record, Beck was apparently desperate to get her kids back. She needed cash in order to get square with her landlord. And according to investigators, she intended to accomplish her goal by convincing young Andrew to rob his folks.Andrew allegedly went to his parents' farm late Monday night with intentions to boost some valuables. But he wasn't exactly a pro.Andrew managed to grab some credit cards and jewelry. But his dad thought something was up. David confronted his son outside near an open barn door. An argument ensued and police say Andrew then stabbed his dad multiple times with a scythe, killing him. He then went inside and beat his mother to death with a metal pipe."There was a lot of anger in this killing," an investigator told the Oregonian. Detectives have charged Andrew with two counts of aggravated murder after finding his parent's stolen items in his apartment. Beck has also been charged with helping her boyfriend get rid of the bloody clothes he was wearing at the time of the murder.
Most of the time, my aversion to being Pitchforked serves me well.

Illinois Great Rivers Conference
A Christmas Refrain
His fiancée found his body lying at the bottom of his swimming pool, June 17, 2012. He was 47.
Well known, but not well known for academic or civic achievements, he made his living as a taxi driver, delivering passengers from point A to point B in LA.
That changed March 3, 1991.
He burst upon the international scene from a high speed chase. Apprehended, beaten, arrested, hospitalized in critical condition and subsequently incarcerated, Rodney King moved to the center of controversy and derision as a thousand interpretations of a videotape of what happened to him at the hands of the LA police made news around the world.
Policemen put on trial for abuse were acquitted. Riots followed. Most observers opined that the acquittals triggered the 1992 riots Los Angeles. The riots were said to have "caused 53 deaths, 2,383 injuries, 7000 fires, damage to 3,100 businesses, and nearly $1 billion in financial losses."
During the height of the riots, the power brokers of LA decided that the word of a convict would accomplish what they could not, cessation of the riot. Lawyers drew up a script for him to read on television. King rejected it. Instead of speaking to the rioters alone about their behavior, Rodney King spoke to all God's people about their behavior in LA, New York, Paris, Beirut, Israel, Africa, in fact the whole world, with an unscripted God inspired speech that will be recalled for years to come. "Can we all get along?" known more widely as "Can't we all just get along?" was his memorable plaintive cry.
When Rodney King fielded questions about his legacy from the BBC, he responded, "Some people feel like I'm some kind of hero. Others hate me. They say I deserved it. Other people, I can hear them mocking me for when I called for an end to the destruction (the LA riots), like I'm a fool for believing in peace."
To a world steeped in violence and terror at every hand, where forgiveness and reconciliation are drowned out by others who allegedly know a better way, Rodney King's unscripted spirit driven statement stands on the shoulders of folk like Martin Luther King, Jr. and Jesus of Nazareth (the Prince of Peace) who espoused the way of peace while suffering violent deaths themselves. A Christmas Refrain framed by one who became persona non grata to many in America finds truth and resonance in minds and hearts unable to stop the cycles of violence washing over us daily.
And so we respond like Rodney King, "Can't we all just get along?"
Who will answer?

Home England Wales Avison Young releases its Big Nine report for Q3
Avison Young releases its Big Nine report for Q3
Tom Merrifield, director at Avison Young in Cardiff
Avison Young has issued its quarterly report of the city centre office markets, Big Nine, that confirms it has been a relatively quiet year in the Cardiff office market, with take-up totalling 286,000 sq ft to Q3, still some way short of the ten-year annual average of 514,000 sq ft.
However, with new schemes coming out of the ground, Cardiff has a substantial amount of speculative development to look forward to that will provide space for those looking to relocate in twelve months' time.
Tom Merrifield, director at Avison Young in Cardiff says, "The Big Nine report reinforces the city's need for a healthy Grade A pipeline if it is to continue to attract major occupiers and compete against the larger UK cities such as Manchester. Currently, there is 379,000 sq ft under construction much of which is in line for pre-let."
In Q3 there were just two deals above 10,000 sq ft; Staling Bank took 14,130 sq ft at Brunel House in the city centre and recruitment agency New Directions took 17,130 sq ft at Lambourne House on Cardiff Business Park. Elsewhere there were a number of deals at Callaghan Square which included occupiers Amey and Grant Thornton.
In terms of new schemes underway, JR Smart has broken ground on the latest Capital Quarter development in John Street, where 107,000 sq ft offices are expected to complete by Q1 2021. At the substantial regeneration of Rightacres' former Brewery site Central Quay, preliminary works have started on the 220,000 sq ft Ledger Building.
At the end of Q3 the city centre take up stands at 59,238 sq ft, with a headline rent of £27.00.
It is a raft of small to medium size deals that have kept the Cardiff market afloat this year.
"The market is crying out for more space," continues Tom Merrifield. "Thankfully over the summer there has been an increase in development pipeline activity, adding up to exciting prospects for 2020 and into 2021 for the Cardiff office market and those looking to relocate."
The Big Nine report, which covers the nine major regional markets in the UK, shows that there is continued inward investment and relocation deals, boosting take-up nationally during the third quarter.
Total city centre and out-of-town activity during Q3 amounted to 2.1 million sq ft. This was just above the ten year quarterly average, as was take-up for the year to date figure of 6.3 million sq ft. Although this is significantly short of the record levels of the last two years it is at a similar level to the referendum year 2016, the last time the market was affected by political uncertainty.
The second half of the year tends to show stronger activity but Brexit has impacted on occupier decisions this quarter, particularly for small to medium sized deals. There has also been a wide divergence in performance between the regions this quarter, with the largest cities performing well against the ten-year averages.
Despite political uncertainty and occupier caution, headline rents continue to edge up across the UK regions, with Manchester leading the way at £36.50, followed by Bristol and Edinburgh.
However, the reality is all of these locations remain undervalued given overall limited rental growth over the last five years set against high building cost inflation. Over the last 12 months average prime rents have increased by around 3% in both the city centres and out-of-town locations.
Looking forward, long-term strategic demand remains robust as regional markets continue to benefit from substantial public and private sector inward investment, particularly from the government hub programme and the BT hub strategy.

Q: Is it possible to use Windows 7 64-bit key on 32bit simultaneously? I have my laptop which got Windows 7 64-bit OS. For development purposes I have installed Windows 7 32bit on VirtualBox on same laptop.
Is it possible to use same key for 32-bit OS on VirtualBox while having 64bit Windows on laptop?

A: Technically yes.
Legally no. You are breaking the EULA.
You can use the same key on 32 or 64 bit Windows of the same edition (e.g. Home Premium, Professional etc.). But, unless you have MSDN or similar, you are only allowed one installation.

A: The answer is no, and you can't since:

You can't install 32 bit one computer and install 64 bit on another computer using the same key.

For your more reference

A: You can absolutely do it, Since its on Virtual box.

As has been exclusively the case in recent years, IAEA Chief Amano Yukiya issued a statement Wednesday confirming once again that Iran is still meeting all commitments it has under the P5+1 nuclear deal.
Under the deal, the IAEA is responsible for verifying that Iran is meeting all of its requirements under the pact. Since the deal's implementation, the IAEA has consistently affirmed that Iran is meeting those requirements.
Which is a source of tensions between the international watchdog and the Trump Administration. The administration has repeatedly declared Iran in violation, but can't get anyone else to confirm that, and has pushed the IAEA to make new demands on Iran, which the IAEA has said are unwarranted.
As the international community tries to save the P5+1 deal after the US withdrew from it, the IAEA reports are increasingly important, in underscoring that the deal was, and is, wholly intact, and it was only the US that decided to abandon it.

Question : I have a son as a result of a previous relationship. I assume financial responsibility, stay in touch and visit with him (he lives far away with his mom) when I can. My question is that I have since married and have two children, now 5 and 3 that see pictures of my son around the house. When should I introduce the topic of my son and how can I explain this to my younger children?


Deployment of the seat is a simple one handed operation.
A Locking Latch is released with the lever on the back of the frame.
The weight of the seat is supported by a gas strut allowing it to effortlessly drop down and lock into place.
A second lever on the side of the seat is lifted to allow the seat back to be raised into position.
When both seats are in their open position there is only a small gap between them. In order for passengers to get in and out, one seat must be folded up.
The seat styling matches our Premium Second Row option and is suitable for both children and adults.
It features a rake adjustable seat back and height adjustable head rest. The seats also have a handy rear storage pocket, whilst still leave plenty of room behind the seats for bags.
Available in all of our standard trim styles as well as a bespoke leather options that can be tailored to your specific requirements.
A three point seat belt kit is supplied with the seat. The buckle mounts to the seat frame as an integral part and a separate inertia reel mounts to the vehicle. You may need to purchase additional hardware to attach the belt to the vehicle.
If your vehicle is a hard top, you will need our Seat Belt Rear Top Mounting Bracket EXT220-16 or EXT220-17. These are left or right handed heavy duty brackets.
If you have a soft top vehicle you will need a suitable heavy duty bar set with integrated seat belt mounts such as our XS Heavy Duty bar set.
The seat is suitable for Defender 90 and 110 vehicles with square wheel arches.
Please note that this seat will Not fit in post 2007 Puma vehicles with the cut away wheel arch. However, many Puma vehicles incorporated the square arches and if your defender has these the seats will fit. If you are unsure please contact our sales team for knowledgeable advice.
Installation of the seat requires drilling of 10 holes. 4 in the floor, 2 in the vertical face of the wheel box and 4 in the top face of the wheel box.
Once fitted in the vehicle you attached the seat to the base frame and attached the gas strut.
A detailed fitting guide is supplied with the seat.
You can also have you seat installed in our Fitting Centre. Contact our sales team for details here.
This seat is designed as a more practical and comfortable alternative to the standard load area occasional seating options. It has been tested at Millbrook Proving Ground in accordance with ECE Regulation 17.08, Annex 7. This is a 20g sled test that simulates a forward and rearward impact at 30MPH It is designed to test the integrity of the seat frame assembly and anchor points. Note, it does not take into account the structural integrity of the vehicle or seat belt anchorages. After the test the seat remained full intact and operational. Full copies of the test report are available upon request.
While every effort has been made to ensure that this seat is robust, it must be noted that this is an aftermarket, retro fit item andyou must follow our fitting guide and instructions. If you are unsure or do not wish to install yourself then it's worthwhile considering our in-house fitting centre where professional fitting service is available.

Davidson RL, Rykken JJ, Farrell BD. Carabid beetle diversity and distribution in Boston Harbor Islands national park area (Coleoptera, Carabidae). Zookeys [Internet]. 2011;(147) :497-526. DOI (full text)Abstract
As part of an All Taxa Biodiversity Inventory in Boston Harbor Islands national park area, an inventory of carabid beetles on 13 islands was conducted. Intensive sampling on ten of the islands, using an assortment of passive traps and limited hand collecting, resulted in the capture of 6,194 specimens, comprising 128 species. Among these species were seven new state records for Massachusetts (Acupalpus nanellus, Amara aulica, Amara bifrons, Apenes lucidulus, Bradycellus tantillus, Harpalus rubripes and Laemostenus tern cola terricola-the last also a new country record; in passing we report also new state records for Happalus rubripes from New York and Pennsylvania, Amara ovata from Pennsylvania, and the first mainland New York records for Asaphidion curtum). For most islands, there was a clear relationship between species richness and island area. Two islands, however, Calf and Grape, had far more species than their relatively small size would predict. Freshwater marshes on these islands, along with a suite of hygrophilous species, suggested that habitat diversity plays an important role in island species richness. Introduced species (18) comprised 14.0% of the total observed species richness, compared to 5.5% (17 out of 306 species) documented for Rhode Island. We surmise that the higher proportion of introduced species on the islands is, in part, due to a higher proportion of disturbed and open habitats as well as high rates of human traffic. We predict that more active sampling in specialized habitats would bring the total carabid fauna of the Boston Harbor Islands closer to that of Rhode Island or eastern Massachusetts in richness and composition; however, isolation, human disturbance and traffic, and limited habitat diversity all contribute to reducing the species pool on the islands relative to that on the mainland.
Clark A, Rykken JJ, Farrell BD. The Effects of Biogeography on Ant Diversity and Activity on the Boston Harbor Islands, Massachusetts, USA. Plos One [Internet]. 2011;6 (11). DOI (full text)Abstract
Many studies have examined how island biogeography affects diversity on the scale of island systems. In this study, we address how diversity varies over very short periods of time on individual islands. To do this, we compile an inventory of the ants living in the Boston Harbor Islands National Recreation Area, Boston, Massachusetts, USA using data from a five-year All Taxa Biodiversity Inventory of the region's arthropods. Consistent with the classical theory of island biogeography, species richness increased with island size, decreased with island isolation, and remained relatively constant over time. Additionally, our inventory finds that almost half of the known Massachusetts ant fauna can be collected in the BHI, and identifies four new species records for Massachusetts, including one new to the United States, Myrmica scabrinodis. We find that the number of species actually active on islands depended greatly on the timescale under consideration. The species that could be detected during any given week of sampling could by no means account for total island species richness, even when correcting for sampling effort. Though we consistently collected the same number of species over any given week of sampling, the identities of those species varied greatly between weeks. This variation does not result from local immigration and extinction of species, nor from seasonally-driven changes in the abundance of individual species, but rather from weekly changes in the distribution and activity of foraging ants. This variation can be upwards of 50% of ant species per week. This suggests that numerous ant species on the BHI share the same physical space at different times. This temporal partitioning could well explain such unexpectedly high ant diversity in an isolated, urban site.
Rykken JJ, Jepson PC, Moldenke AR. Ground-dwelling Arthropod Distribution and Movement Across a Fragmented Riparian Forest. Northwest Science [Internet]. 2011;85 (4) :527-541. DOI (full text)Abstract
The ability to predict patterns of species dispersal across habitat edges takes on increasing conservation relevance as landscapes become more fragmented. We assessed edge responses for four ground-dwelling arthropod taxa by measuring their distribution and movement patterns across a forest edge associated with a forested riparian buffer and an adjacent upslope clearcut at a single site. We used Spatial Analysis by Distance Indices to describe the spatial distribution of arthropods, habitat variables, and the associations between them across a 49 x 63 m pitfall trapping grid with 80 trapping stations. We used mark-release-recapture techniques to measure the distance, rate, and direction of arthropod movement within and between habitat types. Scaphinotus angusticollis (Coleoptera; Carabidae) was restricted to the cool, moist portion of the riparian buffer and was not observed to cross the forest edge. The carabids Pterostichus lattini and Scaphinotus marginatus had more eurytopic distributions across all habitats. Higher overall mobility for S. marginauts may explain, in part, the greater frequency of movement for this species across the forest/clearcut edge. Lycosid spiders, strongly associated with the clearcut, also moved into one portion of the riparian buffer that was warmer and drier. They had a relatively high frequency of movement across the clearcut/forest boundary. These results suggest that ground-dwelling arthropod taxa are likely to respond differently to habitat edges, and that their habitat affinities and mobility strongly influence movement patterns across the landscape. Understanding these patterns of distribution and movement will aid the sustainable management of forest and riparian arthropod taxa in fragmented landscapes.

Bembidion (Lymnaeum) nigropiceum (Marsham) (=puritanum Hayward), a European species introduced into Massachusetts but presumed not to have become established, has been rediscovered during the Boston Harbor Islands All Taxa Biodiversity Inventory undertaken by the Museum of Comparative Zoology and the National Park Service. A summary is presented of treatment of this species in North America. Data on specimens collected are presented, along with observations on habitat and biology. Some speculations are presented about its highly specialized habitat in the gravel pushed up by high tide, which may act as a food-trapping sieve. A few words are included about future actions needed to resolve questions of distribution and behavior.

Lyza Jane – Indigo ft Lee Scott
Emilia Cox
Gorgeous visuals for 'Indigo' – the single lifted from Lyza Jane's brand new album, h.o.u.s.e.b.o.u.n.d. The kind of music that dreams are made of, h.o.u.s.e.b.o.u.n.d was released today and it's an ethereal masterpiece.
After the release of Baby Blue Champion, a collaborative project between Lyza and Sniff just over a year ago, it was clear Lyza had carved herself a totally unique spot in the scene. This project, which sees toned-down features from Blah friends Lee Scott, Black Josh and Danny Lover, is a strong affirmation of that space she holds. This is one for the books.
You can stream h.o.u.s.e.b.o.u.n.d online now, or cop it on vinyl here. Don't sleep.

Imam al-Jazri was a scholar born in 769Ah who went on to become a master in Qir'at, Tajweed, Hadeeth, History & Fiqh. Some have noted over 90 different works in the different sciences from the Imam, yet his most famous work is the poem translated herein.


Implementation Outline – Growth. Leadership. Learning.
Wow Brent! You've got some detailed work in this timeline. Are you hoping to use the free or paid versions of Flocabulary and Zzish? I've played with them both a little and are fun. Are you thinking of focussing on Quizalize or some of the other apps in the Zzish hub? I'm still trying to find a comprehensive list of all the apps on their hub. Sorry to use this to post a million questions. Overall, you've packed in a lot of information and I can't wait to hear how the rotation model works for you.
I love how organized this is! Everything is broken down by month which makes the whole thing seem manageable. I might need to incorporate this into my outline. I've never heard of Zzish, off to check it out right now. Great work on this!

Nausa (řecky  Νάουσα, arumunsky Niagusta, slavomakedonsky Nегуш) je město v Řecku v makedonské Imathii. Žije zde asi 33 000 obyvatel. Je známé svým vínem a tradiční osmanskou architekturou, nachází se zde i lyžařské středisko.

Dějiny
V starověku zde nejdříve žily thrácké kmeny Brygů, později se zde usadili starověcí Makedonci. Na místě dnešní Nausy se nacházelo makedonské město jménem Mieze. Z této doby je zde dochované nymfeum. V římské době se vžilo latinské jméno Nea Augusta, které se následně pořečtilo na dnešní Nausu. Nausa začala být významným městem až během turecké nadvlády, kdy zde díky mnohým bohatým řeckým obchodníkům vzniklo několik cenných staveb. Typické jsou hlavně bohaté domy těchto obyvatel, které dnes tvoří historickou část města. Řekové Nausu dobyli během Řecké války za nezávislost v roce 1821 a následně pod vedením Anastasia Karatasose odolávali dlouhému tureckému obléhání, které trvalo celkem měsíc. Pádem Nausy skončila řecká snaha o získání Makedonie od Turků. Řekové Makedonii osvobodili až v roce 1912 po první balkánské válce. Ve městě tehdy žili hlavně Řekové, ale byla tu i početná komunita Arumunů a Bulharů. Bulhaři odešli do Bulharska po řecko-bulharské výměně obyvatel a v roce 1923 po Řecko-turecké výměně obyvatel se v Nause usadilo mnoho Pontských Řeků.

Q: Embedding username and password in Excel Microsoft Data Query so other users can refresh data My company is using Tableau for Served data, but I have user who want Excel text table type data served - Text Tables with many columns, >100k Rows, color conditional formatting - which Tableau deals horribly with.
Everyone also has Excel, so I thought that I could set up an Excel file to pull the data from the SQL Server and be refreshed on demand by the users.  I had found an article here about using Microsoft Query within Excel to access the data source.
In Sql Server, I have a scheduled stored procedure that performs a nightly refresh of a results Table I have created I'll call that Table "[Server].[dbo].[Results]".  This is the Table that I was trying to display in Tableau - and everyone would have been able to access it, but it runs so slow, it is worthless.
I created the same thing in Excel, and it loads or refreshes data from [Server].[dbo].[Results] in < 30 secs with ~30 columns and > 100k rows with lots of colored conditional formatting.  It works great.
So, for Excel, I had our IT department create a user account that only has read-only access to the [Results] Table - that account does NOT have access to anything else in the Server Databases.  The credentials are something like Username = "ResultsUser" and Password = "ResultsPassword".  Again - EVERYONE would have had read-only access to this data if I could have gotten Tableau to work, so we don't care who knows this UserName and Password.  In my Excel file, I used these credentials when I created the Data Connection to [Server].[dbo].[Results], and I DID select "Save Password" for the Connection String
It refreshes fine for me on my work computer over our VPN, but when I sent the file to my user, she cannot refresh the data on her work computer over the VPN.  If I dig into the Connection Properties, even though I can see embedded "ResultsUser" and "ResultsPassword" in the Connection String, I also can see MY Windows UserID listed for the WSID.  Not sure if this is what is preventing my user from being able to refresh.
Some places I read, it sounds like the embedded credentials, just make it so the creator of the file (me) doesn't have to enter username and password when they refresh the data.  What I need is - with ResultsUser and ResultsPassword credentials embedded in the file - ANY USER of the Excel file can refresh the data - as long as they are on the network.
Does anyone know if this is possible?  Is there something I am missing?  Do I need to use some other technique?
Thanks in advance,
MikeC

Rotary Clubs raise £600 for Cancercareline
The Blackwood-based cancer charity received the funding boost just months after it almost closed due to funding issues
Sophie Gidley
Islwyn MP Chris Evans with members of the Rotary Club, the Blackwood carnival queen, the mayor of Blackwood, and Kay and Adrian Reed of Cancercareline
Hundreds of pounds have been raised for a Rhymney Valley cancer charity just months after it almost closed due to funding issues.
Cancercareline, based in Blackwood, has been presented with a cheque for £600.
Islwyn MP Chris Evans joined members of local Rotary Clubs to make the presentation following a successful fundraiser hosted by local Rotarian Allan Sharpe.
Cancercareline had been facing closure following the withdrawal of funding by the Aneurin Bevan Health Board and Caerphilly County Borough Council.
But it was saved back in May this year when the funding was reinstated following a widely-supported campaign.
The service – which has been running since 1985 and hosts up to 40 people and 40 volunteers every week – received confirmation that the £12,000 originally paid by Aneurin Bevan Health Board before the cut would be reinstated for the 2014/15 financial year, along with reduced funding of £13,000 from Caerphilly County Borough Council.
Speaking at the presentation, Mr Evans said he was thrilled to raise money to help support an "immensely worthy cause."
He said: "I am delighted to present Cancercareline with a cheque for £600.
"As a charity, they provide an unmatched service for people in the area. It is an immensely worthy cause, and they have helped thousands of people since they started in 1985.
"When I heard about the difficulties Cancercareline was experiencing with funding, I contacted all the Rotary Clubs in Islwyn to see if they could help. I have been overwhelmed by the response, and I would like to pay tribute to their generosity."
Mr Sharpe is a member of Abercarn and Newbridge Rotary Club, and hosted a summer solstice party in aid of Cancercareline following Mr Evans's letter on behalf of the charity. It was also attended by members of Pontllanfraith and Blackwood Rotary Clubs who helped to raise the funds in aid of the cancer charity.
