Henri Julien Félix Rousseau, francoski postimpresionistični slikar samorastnik, naivec ali slikar primitivizma, * 21. maj 1844, Laval, Mayenne, Francija, † 2. september 1910, Pariz.

Znan je bil kot Le Douanier (carinik), kar je šaljiv opis njegovega poklica trošarinskega uradnika. V času njegovega življenja je bil zasmehovan od kritikov, kasneje pa so ga spoznali kot genija samouka, katerega dela imajo visoko umetniško kakovost. Rousseaujeva dela so imela velik vpliv na več generacij avantgardnih umetnikov.

Življenje
Henri Rousseau se je rodil v Lavalu, Francija leta 1844 v družini vodovodnega inštalaterja, kjer je bil prisiljen delati kot majhen deček. Srednjo šolo je obiskoval v Lavalu, najprej kot dnevni dijak, nato pa kot gojenec v internatu, saj je njegov oče postal dolžnik in so morali njegovi starši zapustiti mesto, ker so jim zasegli hišo. Bil je povprečen pri nekaterih predmetih, vendar je osvojil nagrado za risanje in glasbo. Delal je pri odvetniku in študiral pravo, vendar je »izrekel majhno krivo izpoved in se zatekel v vojsko«, ki jo je služil štiri leta, z začetkom leta 1863. Po očetovi smrti se je Rousseau leta 1868 preselil v Pariz, da bi kot vladni uslužbenec podpiral svojo ovdovelo mater . Leta 1868 se je poročil z Clemence Boitard, hčerko svojega najemodajalca, s katero je imel šest otrok (le eden je preživel). Leta 1871 je bil imenovan za trošarinskega uradnika in sicer za pobiranje davkov na blago, ki je vstopalo v Pariz. Njegova žena je umrla leta 1888, nakar se je leta 1898 poročil z Josephine Noury. Resno je začel slikati v svojih zgodnjih štiridesetih letih. V starosti 49 se je upokojil iz delovnega mesta in se posvetil svoji umetnosti s polnim delovnim časom.

Rousseau je trdil, da ni imel »drugega učitelja kot narave«, čeprav je priznal, da je sprejel »nasvet« dveh uveljavljenih akademskih slikarjev, Félixa Augusta Clémenta in Jean-Léona Geroma.  Kot samouka ga uvrščamo med slikarje naivce ali primitiviste.

Slike
Njegove najbolj znane slike prikazujejo prizore džungle, čeprav ni nikoli zapustil Francije ali videl džungle. Zgodbe, ki jih širijo občudovalci, da je bil vključen v francoski ekspediciji v Mehiki, so neutemeljene. Njegov navdih je prihajal iz ilustriranih knjig in botaničnih vrtov v Parizu, pa tudi podob dermoplastičnih divjih živali. Srečal se je tudi z vojaki v času svojega službovanja v vojski, ki je bila udeležena v francoski ekspediciji v Mehiki in poslušal njihove zgodbe o subtropskih deželah, ki so jih videli. Kritiku Arsène Alexandru je opisal svoje pogoste obiske v parku Jardin des Plantes: »Ko sem šel v steklenjake in videl nenavadne rastline eksotičnih dežel, se mi je zdelo, da sanjam«.

Skupaj z eksotičnimi prizori, je bila sočasna proizvodnja manjših topografskih podob mesta in njihovih predmestjih.

Trdil je, da so izumili nov žanr portreta krajine, ki je bil dosežen s slikami, kot je najljubši del mesta z osebo v ospredju.

Kritika in priznanja

Rousseaujev nivo in na videz otročji slog, so omalovaževali mnogi kritiki; ljudje so bili pogosto šokirani nad njegovim delom ali so se posmehovali. Njegova naivnost je bila skrajna in je vedno hrepenela, zaman, po konvencionalnem sprejetju. Številni opazovalci so pripomnili, da je slikal kot otrok, toda delo kaže, prefinjenost s posebno tehniko.

Od leta 1886 je redno razstavljal v Salon des Indépendants in čeprav njegovo delo ni bilo na vidnem mestu, je naslikal vse več del. Tiger v tropski nevihti je bila razstavljena leta 1891 in Rousseau je naredil svoj prvi resen pregled, ko je mlad umetnik, Félix Vallotton zapisal: »Njegove slike Tiger v tropski nevihti ne smemo zamuditi, to je Alfa in Omega slikarstva«. Minilo je več kot desetletje preden se je Rousseau vrnil k prikazovanju svojega videnja džungle.

Leta 1893 se je Rousseau preselil v studio na Montparnasse, kjer je živel in delal do svoje smrti leta 1910.  Leta 1897 je izdelal eno najbolj znanih slik, La Bohémienne endormie (Speča ciganka).

Leta 1905 je Rousseau naslikal veliko džungelsko sceno Lačen lev se vrže na antilopo, ki je bila razstavljena v Salon des Indépendants blizu del mlajših vodilnih avantgardnih umetnikov, kot so Henri Matisse, kar je zdaj videti kot prvi prikaz fauvizma. Rousseaujeva slika je celo vplivala na poimenovanje fauvizma.

Leta 1907 je po naročilu matere umetnika Roberta Delaunaya, Berthe, grofice Delaunay, naslikal The Snake Charmer.

Le Banquet Rousseau
Ko je Pablo Picasso opazil sliko, ki jo je Rousseau prodajal na ulici kot prebarvano platno, je takoj priznal Rousseauju da je genij in je pristopil, da bi ga spoznal. Leta 1908 je imel Picasso pol resen, pol burlesken banket v svojem studiu v Le Bateau-Lavoir na Rousseaujevo čast. Le Banket Rousseau je bil "eden izmed najbolj opaznih družbenih dogodkov dvajsetega stoletja", piše ameriški pesnik in literarni kritik John Malcolm Brinnin, "ni bil niti orgiastična priložnost niti razkošen. Njegova poznejša slava zrasla iz dejstva, da je bilo pisano dogajanje znotraj revolucionarnega umetniškega gibanja v času najzgodnejših uspehov tega gibanja in dejstva, da so bili posamezniki, katerih ločeni vplivi sevajo kot napere ustvarjalno svetlobo v svet umetnosti generacij."

Gostje na banketu so bili: Guillaume Apollinaire, Jean Metzinger, Juan Gris, Max Jacob, Marie Laurencin, André Salmon, Maurice Raynal, Daniel-Henri Kahnweiler, Leo Stein in Gertrude Stein.

Maurice Raynal, je pisal o  "Le Banket Rousseauja" v Les Soires de Paris, 15. januarja 1914, str. 69.

Upokojitev
Po Rousseaujevi upokojitvi leta 1893, je dopolnjeval svojo majhno pokojnino z delom s krajšim delovnim časom in igranjem violine na ulicah. Prav tako je kratek čas delal v Le petit journal, kjer je izdelal številne platnice.

Rousseau je svojo zadnjo sliko Sanje, razstavil marca 1910 v Salon des Independants. V istem mesecu je utrpel flegmon v nogi, ki ga je ignoriral. V avgustu je bil sprejet v bolnišnico Necker v Parizu. 2. septembra 1910 je po operaciji umrl zaradi krvnega strdka. Na njegovem pogrebu je stalo sedem prijateljev ob njegovem grobu: slikarja Paul Signac in Manuel Ortiz de Zarate, umetniški par Robert Delaunayeve in Sonia Terk, kipar Brâncuși, Rousseaujev najemodajalec Armand Queval in Guillaume Apollinaire, ki je napisal epitaf, Brâncuși pa ga dal na nagrobnik.

Zapuščina

Rousseaujeva dela so imela velik vpliv na več generacij avantgardnih umetnikov, tudi Pabla Picassa, Jeana Hugoja, Fernanda Légerja Jeana Metzingerja, Maxa Beckmanna in nadrealiste. Robert Smith, umetnostni kritik, je napisal za The New York Times: "Beckmannovi neverjetni avtoportreti za primer, so izpeljava ostrih, zgoščenih oblik Rousseaujevega portreta pisatelja Pierra Lotija".

Vizualni slog animirana filma Kirikou in čarovnica  Michela Ocelota iz leta 1998 je delno navdihnil Rousseau, zlasti upodobitev vegetacije džungle.
Kritiki so ugotovili vpliv Rousseauja na poezijo Wallace Stevensa: primer Floral Decorations for Bananas v zbirki Harmonium..

Ameriška pesnica Sylvia Plath je bila velik občudovalec Rousseauja in njegove umetnosti, kot tudi navdih za risanje iz njegovih del, v njeni poeziji. Pesem  Yadwigha, on a Red Couch, Among Lilies (1958) temelji na njegovi sliki Sanje, medtem ko pesem Snakecharmer (1957) temelji na slik The Snake Charmer.

Eno izmed njegovih del je bilo navdih za animirani film Madagaskar.

Pesem Jungle Line, Joni Mitchell, tudi temelji na Rousseaujevi sliki.

Leta 1911 je bila retrospektivna razstava Rousseaujevih del prikazana v Salon des Indépendants. Njegove slike so bile prikazane tudi na prvi razstavi Blaue Reiter

Q: default value of an select tag I have the following problem: I want to establish a default value for my select tag, but the default value should be the result of an sql select statement; so I want to have a select filed with values from a table from a database, and the default value should be the result of an sql select statement from the same table....
Does anyone have an idea?
Thanks!

A: The general pattern for emitting a <select> while setting a default value from a database looks something like this (pseudo-code):
get data for select -> table
get default value -> defvalue

output "<select>"
for each row in table
    output "<option value=\"row.value\""
    if row.value = defvalue then output " selected"
    output ">" + row.description + "</option>"
next row
output "</select>"

The key here is that we conditionally include the selected attribute based on whether the current option row being printed happens also to be the default value retrieved from the database.
Hope this helps!

A: my answer assumes you have some knowledge with JSP/Servlets or Ajax calls
2 options:

*

*when your DOM's ready (document-ready event), make an ajax call to the server to fetch the requested value (SQL query, in your case) to the client. When the value is returned in the ajax callback, set the relevant combo-box option 'selected' attribute.

*if you have a JSP, make your SQL query, set the result to some java variable 'val', then assign it to the relevant option via the <%=val%> directive.

Muskiest music festival is planning to be held in August at the Steel Stacks. (Tiancheng Ji/B&W Staff)
Musikfest music festival will be held in person in August
By Christina Perrier — ; Published May 19, 2021, 10:57 am ; updated May 26, 2021, 10:34 pm Coronavirus, Lifestyle
UPDATE: Musikfest will be held in person this coming summer and the festival will take place between Aug. 6 to 15.
Some of the headline performances include Phillip Phillips, Sam Hunt, Zedd, The Wood Brothers and many more.
ArtsQuest will continue to follow local and national CDC guidelines for the event.
"We are working in partnership with ArtsQuest and our community public health and safety partners to put on the safest festival possible in order to support small business, tourism and economic development," Bethlehem Mayor Bob Donchez said. "For more than three decades, Musikfest has brought millions of people to Bethlehem. Now, more than ever, it is important to support ArtsQuest including the performers, artists, vendors and small businesses in any capacity possible."
May 19: Bethlehem resident Shirley Morganelli has not missed a day of Musikfest since the festival started in 1984, with the exception of last year since the event was virtual due to COVID-19.
Morganelli said she is excited for the event to return in person this August, and she will most likely attend, even though she is a little apprehensive about health concerns because she is a nurse.
Musikfest is an American musical festival founded by ArtsQuest that is held annually in Bethlehem.
Patrick Brogan, chief programming officer and manager of ArtsQuest, said currently they are planning to hold an in-person festival in accordance with CDC and state guidelines, but a final announcement won't be made until later this month.
"We've been able to feel the energy that everyone knows is out there of people looking to get back," Brogan said. "Get back into live concerts and live music and community environments. We also heard the importance of safety and the praise for safety leading the way in our decision-making. We can marry those two things together well in how we plan for the festival."
Morganelli said she thinks ArtsQuest is smart and creative enough to hold a safe, fulfilling event, and hopes that attendees are honorable and only go if they are vaccinated.
The festival is scheduled to take place from Aug. 6 to 15 at the Steel Stacks.
The festival has confirmed shows for Willie Nelson & Family, Darius Rucker, Shinedown and Kelsea Ballerini.
ArtsQuest has been working closely with the City of Bethlehem, as well as consulting with health officials and the community to come up with the best plan.
"ArtsQuest fully operates, organizes and pays for the festival, the city just provides support however we can," said Eric Evans, business administrator for the City of Bethlehem. "It's a significant effort on the city's part, but the heavy lifting is done by ArtsQuest."
Brogan said they have also been consulting with colleagues in the event and festival industries, both locally and nationally, to figure out best practices, policies and procedures.
The ArtsQuest team has learned a lot from piloting different COVID-19 procedures at the previous shows they have been holding at Steel Stacks and Levitt Pavilion, Brogan said. These practices include social distancing tables and pods and mandating masks when not seated.
Another challenge ArtsQuest has had to navigate is finances. The nonprofit lost more than 90 percent of their revenue in 2020, however, they have received a lot of support from their corporate sponsors and the Bethlehem community.
Brogan said these gifts are what puts ArtsQuest in a position to be able to hold Musikfest 2021.
Evans said Bethlehem is lucky to have ArtsQuest, as their events drive businesses that enrich the community. He said he is excited to see more activity in downtown Bethlehem during the festival.
"The festival was founded to bring the community together, to celebrate music and arts and inspire and engage the community," Brogan said. "As well as for economic purposes of driving business in and around the region. All of those factors you very much see alive and well today."
Mandy Martin, the artist who designed the 2021 Musikfest poster, said this event may represent light at the end of a dark tunnel of the pandemic.
She painted bright poppy flowers in the poster as a symbol of hope for the future and to capture the joyous energy music festivals bring people.
"[The poppies are] reminding us that new growth often arises after times of hardship," Martin said. "It's definitely been a difficult year or so for a lot of people. I hope that we can all look at this and feel the sense that new things are on the horizon and new growth is coming."
Brogan said their weekly Steel Stack shows have been successful so far and many performances have sold out even when at 50 or 30 percent capacity. He anticipates Musikfest will follow suit and full capacity will be allowed.
"Musikfest transformed Bethlehem," Morganelli said. "It makes such a big impression on me that this area brings so much joy and that people choose to come here for their annual vacation. It's a hugely important event. Bethlehem is so proud of it and it's such an asset here that I think it will just go on and on."

46 Pd 106.420000000 Palladium
See more Palladium products. Palladium (atomic symbol: Pd, atomic number: 46) is a Block D, Group 10, Period 5 element with an atomic weight of 106.42. The number of electrons in each of palladium's shells is 2, 8, 18, 18 and its electron configuration is [Kr] 4d10. The palladium atom has a radius of 137 pm and a Van der Waals radius of 202 pm. In its elemental form, palladium has a silvery white appearance. Palladium is a member of the platinum group of metals (along with platinum, rhodium, ruthenium, iridium and osmium). Palladium has the lowest melting point and is the least dense of the group. Palladium can be found as a free metal and alloyed with other platinum-group metals. Nickel-copper deposits are the main commercial source of palladium. Palladium was discovered and first isolated by William Hyde Wollaston in 1803. Its name is derived from the asteroid Pallas.
19 K 39.098300000 Potassium
See more Potassium products. Potassium (atomic symbol: K, atomic number: 19) is a Block S, Group 1, Period 4 element with an atomic weight of 39.0983. The number of electrons in each of Potassium's shells is [2, 8, 8, 1] and its electron configuration is [Ar] 4s1. The potassium atom has a radius of 227.2 pm and a Van der Waals radius of 275 pm. Potassium was discovered and first isolated by Sir Humphrey Davy in 1807. Potassium is the seventh most abundant element on earth. It is one of the most reactive and electropositive of all metals and rapidly oxidizes. As with other alkali metals, potassium decomposes in water with the evolution of hydrogen because of its reacts violently with water, it only occurs in nature in ionic salts. In its elemental form, potassium has a silvery gray metallic appearance, but its compounds (such as potassium hydroxide) are more frequently used in industrial and chemical applications. The origin of the element's name comes from the English word 'potash,' meaning pot ashes, and the Arabic word qali, which means alkali. The symbol K originates from the Latin word kalium.

Birmingham's Dr. Larry Lemak has built his name as a world-renowned sports medicine and orthopedic surgeon, operating on thousands of patients, from well known athletes to regular citizens.
But Lemak says his public battle with throat cancer has made him an even better doctor as he got to experience up close the best in medical care from the other side: as a patient.
"In my journey, I learned how to be a better doctor," Lemak told a packed audience at the Hyatt Regency The Wynfrey Hotel during his keynote address this morning, May 5, at the 33rd Annual Hoover Mayor's Prayer Breakfast.
His speech at the event, sponsored by the Hoover Beautification Board, resonated with the audience, including Hoover Mayor Gary Ivey and emcee ABC 33/40 anchor Brenda Ladun, both cancer survivors.
Lemak is founder of Lemak Sports Medicine & Orthopedics, which specializes in sports medicine and knee replacement. He talked of being "stunned" two years ago upon being diagnosed with throat cancer.
The most difficult part was telling his loved ones: his wife of nearly 50 years, Georgine, three children and grandchildren. He then informed his employees, and credits his family, employees and friends with giving him encouragement, especially during difficult days of radiation treatments.
His cancer battle, Lemak said, gave him a chance to get "my affairs in order" as the disease is difficult to predict. He leaned heavily on his faith in God.
Being a public doctor, Lemak said he faced a quandary in how to deal with media calls as his cancer battle became public. He asked the media if he could craft his struggle in his own way, and was "overwhelmed" by community support.
Since enduring his throat cancer battle, Lemak has become an advocate for others, reaching out to cancer victims just as those going through it helped him cope.
Lemak said he was blessed to be treated by a great team of cancer doctors at UAB.
Lemak said he underwent six weeks of care, including multiple radiation treatments a week. Throat cancer caused him to have to eat using a straw, mostly broth, and he credits his wife for strengthening his faith on tough days.
"I came back with the ability to be a better doctor because of the key people who were with me throughout this, including my wife and my family," Lemak said.
His three friends who were throat cancer survivors "gave me hope," he said.
Lemak said he is not through with his struggle, but thanks to faith in God, great doctors and supportive friends and family, he is much better. He asked attendees at the prayer breakfast to pray for those battling cancer, including some in the room.
"There is no substitute for the power of prayer," Lemak said.

Two Photos of Interest from LosCon
November 30, 2008 November 30, 2008 John Scalzi59 Comments
Both once again courtesy of Tom Suter:
Look! It's Bacon Cat! In anthropomorphic form! You can't see it well here, but this young lady's nametag actually says "Fluffy." I was deepy amused.
And here is Wil Wheaton and me, posing with the infamous "Velvet Wesley," which as you'll recall I had commissioned. It was quite literally the centerpiece of our Wil & Scalzi Happy Fun Time Hour, which, I assure you, you are very sad to have missed.
Yes, we are having fun at LosCon. Why do you ask?
Also: When I get back to Ohio, I'm going on a friggin' diet, because this middle aged pear-shape crap has got to stop. That said, I have at least two more Double-Doubles to get through before that happens. But after that comes the diet. I swear.
In Case You Were Wondering if That In-N-Out Caddy Thing is Real
I mentioned that LosCon was committed to providing me In-N-Out Double-Doubles on demand, and look! Here's the nerve center of the "Feed John Scalzi Tasty Burgers" effort. And look! There's me with a Double-Double! It works! Bwa ha ha hah ha! Life is good.
Having a fine time at LosCon so far, as you can see. Hope your weekend is similarly good.

LosCon is about to start, so now posting will be even more sporadic than it was earlier this week. But, you know. You could always come here and catch the live show.
The Obligatory Black Friday Commerce Message, or A Reminder About Getting Signed Books
November 28, 2008 November 28, 2008 John Scalzi7 Comments
Remember, folks, a signed, personalized book from John Scalzi is just the thing to bring happiness to all the people on whom you wish to spend money this holiday season. I mean, they make me feel warm and fuzzy inside. Here's how to get them. Ordering early (like, now) will make sure your signed books arrive to the right people on time. So don't wait! Spend mad amounts of money! NOW!
We return now to our regularly scheduled programming.
LosCon=Awesome
So, I casually mentioned yesterday that the hotel LosCon is at doesn't stock Coke Zero. In response, the LosCon convention runners have presented me with three twelve packs and 4 20-ounce bottles. Because they rock. This is going to be a fun convention. Or at least a heavily caffeinated one.
That said, I can't help but notice that the hotel LosCon is at has a dearth of Ford Mustang V8s…
(Walks off, whistling)
Give Toby Some Love (and Sales)
Toby Buckell, who was recently in the hospital for heart related problems, is now back in the hospital, this time for a pulmonary embolism. Which sucks.
You know what would make him feel better? Besides not having a pulmonary embolism? You picking up his latest book, The Cole Protocol, which came out on Tuesday. Heck, buy two, they're small.
Also drop by that link and let him know he's in your thoughts. That would be nice, too.
A Well-Timed Class Exercise For Y'all

Because on Thanksgiving, I find it is useful to reflect on such things, you see:
What are you thankful for, this year?
A Science Fictional Thanksgiving
November 27, 2008 John Scalzi
Yes, even on Thanksgiving Day, I have a column up on AMC — and this one, appropriately enough, is about the things I'm thankful for when it comes to science fiction movies. And yes, Darth Vader is one of those things. How could he not be? Go over and see what else I'm thankful for, and feel free to leave a comment about the things about SF that make you say "thanks," too.
Netbooks and Google Docs
I've gotten a couple of questions in the last couple of days of how I'm liking my netbook and whether I am, as I suggested I would, using Google Docs as my primary word processing program. Rather than giving them each their own entry, let me bundle them up here.
The netbook: So far, I really like it. I think the size netbook I have (8.9-inch screen, a something like 80%-sized keyboard) really is about as small as I could go and actually have it usable for me on a daily basis, but in fact it is actually usable — more so than my 15-inch Toshiba, actually, since it's a lot lighter to carry and easier to open up and get to business on. I'm not sure I would want to write a novel on it, but I have written articles (and obviously, blog posts) without any real problem at all. For what I use it for during travel (e-mail, browsing, light word processing) and at home use (basically the same thing), it does great.
The only real disadvantage to the netbook at this point is that the screen is small enough that I spend more time than usual craning my neck downward to look at it; I suspect this is a computer where I will need to take a slightly greater number of breaks to avoid neck/wrist/etc strain. This is not a bad thing. Also, I do strongly suspect that people much larger than I am at 5'8″ and of average proportions therein might find a computer of this size a little too small to be useful. But then again I've seen really tall people whacking away at Blackberrys, so what do I know.
Google Docs: Actually, I do use it quite a bit… for some things. Google Docs works great for when I'm doing short things that don't require much in the way of formatting — so for example, it's perfect for writing short short fiction or Uncle John's Bathroom Reader pieces or my AMC column. But for things that do require formatting, like novel or novella manuscripts, it's sort of a bust because, in fact, Google Docs don't allow you to do anything more than rudimentary formatting (or if it does, does not allow it in a obvious fashion, which amounts to the same thing). Also, Google currently puts a cap on the size of the Google Doc files, which is less than what I need for a whole novel, so again that's something of an issue. So, basically, I use Google Docs for short stuff, and I end up using Word or Open Office for longer, formatted stuff. It's not a bad division of labor, especially since I write the longer pieces at my desk anyway, and so don't need to have those documents be portable. I do occasionally post chapters of longer works into Google Docs for archival purposes, just in case my computer implodes, but that's just one way I archive work in progress. It's not for actual writing in that case.
And that's where I am with portable technology today.
In Which I Reveal a Terrifying Secret
I actually prefer the taste of Diet Pepsi to Diet Coke.
Of course, I prefer Coke Zero to either, but at the moment I'm at a hotel which does not include that particular beverage among its offerings (at least not in the concierge lounge, where such carbonated beverages are provided at will — I do not say "free of charge" because their cost is included in the room charge). So when confronted with these choices, I've been choosing the Diet Pepsi.
I mention this so that those of you who come to LosCon this weekend will not feel shocked and dismayed when you see me wandering around with a Pepsi product and/or declare that I am not really John Scalzi at all, but instead some clever facsimile that has replaced the original, pod-like, whilst the real John Scalzi is trapped in a dank cell or is being slowly digested by alien plants, or whatever it is you may imagine in your fevered heads. Fear not; it's really me.
Apparently a large chunk of LA's power grid went down last night (because it rained), and the internet connectivity in my hotel is down. So I'm in the lobby of the hotel right across the street, sucking down their free lobby wifi instead. Here's a thought — when hotels right next door have reconnected to the InterTubes, you can't blame a momentary overnight power outage for your lack of Internet.
Anyway, can't hide out in this lobby for too long. If I'm hard to find online today, you know the reason. Well, that and the fact I'm, you know. On vacation.
At the moment I am writing this, there are exactly 120,000 comments on Whatever.
Quick! Be 120,001! Hurry!
The Big Idea: Kelsey Timmerman
November 25, 2008 December 18, 2008 John Scalzi8 Comments
And now, the second part of today's "Big Idea" two-fer, and it's somewhat special for me, because Kelsey Timmerman, the author, is a fellow citizen of Darke County, the small agricultural Ohio county in which I live. Yes, that's right, Darke County now has two published authors! We're all very proud. But while I write about other worlds from Darke County, Timmerman had to leave Darke County to visit the rest of the word in order to write his book. Why? Because his clothes were made in other places all over the word — and as you might guess with a title like Where am I Wearing?, Timmerman had a curiosity about where his threads were fabricated. But the original impetus for the journey was, perhaps, a little unusual, with an emphasis on the word "little." Here's Timmerman to tell you more.
KELSEY TIMMERMAN:
Herve Villechaize, or more specifically Herve Villechaize's face, gave me my big idea.
His devilish mug, which he lent to the character Tattoo on the 70s hit Fantasy Island, was emblazoned on my favorite T-shirt. His eyes sparkled with mischief. His smile was too wide, his comb-over too perfect. "COME WITH ME TO MY," hung over his head and "TROPICAL PARADISE," sat just beneath his dimpled chin. I was curious where Tattoo's tropical paradise was. I looked at the tag; it read Made in Honduras.
What if I went to the countries where my clothes were made and met the people who made them? Where was I wearing?
As someone who has never needed much of an excuse to travel anywhere, this sounded like fun, an exercise in experimental travel that would take me around the world. It was the garment equivalent of tossing a dart over my shoulder at a map and going to wherever it landed.
An Idea is abandoned
In Honduras, I did a lot of things that had nothing to do with my Tattoo T-shirt. I explored the jungle on the Mosquito Coast with my brother, who later contracted malaria. For a very brief moment I shared a dugout canoe with a deadly fer-de-lance. (The snake stayed in the canoe; I jumped into the river.) I taught an island-village to play baseball. I went SCUBA diving. On my very last day in Honduras I tracked down the factory that made my shirt and came face-to-face with a worker named Amilcar. I had been telling myself that this was the reason I was in Honduras, but once I had the opportunity to ask Amilcar about his life, I couldn't do it. Part of me wanted to know what his life was like, but the other part was quite content not knowing, maybe even a little scared about what I would learn.
I left Honduras knowing very little about my Tattoo T-shirt or the workers who made it, and abandoned the idea of meeting the people who made the rest of my clothes.
An idea becomes an obsession
Events changed me. I got engaged. I bought a home. I started to become a normal American-a consumer with a mortgage, a refrigerator, and a flat-screen television. I began to settle into my American Dream, and comfortably so, I might add. But then, a pile of my favorite clothes appeared once more. My Jingle These Christmas boxers were made in Bangladesh. My all-American blue jeans were made in Cambodia. My flip-flops were made in China, and, believe it or not, my favorite pair of shorts were made right here in the USA.
I couldn't put on a T-shirt without thinking about Amilcar and the questions I failed to ask him. I became obsessed with where my stuff was made.
I started to read books about globalization and the history of the garment industry, but they missed something. More than the forces, processes, economics, and politics of globalization, I had to know about the producers who anchored the opposite end of the chain. The lives, personalities, hopes, and dreams of the people who make our clothes were lost among the statistics.
I decided to resume my quest to meet these people. To finance it, I did perhaps the most American thing I've ever done-I took out a second mortgage. You see, my big idea was really expensive.
Off I went…again.
An idea is resurrected
In Bangladesh, I went undercover as an underwear buyer and spent the day with a single mom who hoped she didn't have to send another son to Saudi Arabia to work. In Cambodia, I toured a Levi's factory, and befriended a small dorm room where four girls slept on a wooden bed and the other four slept on the concrete floor. In China, I was berated by an American corporation's vice president, and visited the village of a husband and wife who hadn't seen their son in three years.
Before you start thinking that my big idea led to nothing but depressing revelations, it wasn't like that. I made a point of not focusing on just the challenges the workers faced. We went bowling, rode a rollercoaster, played Frisbee, and just hung out with family and friends. We spent more time laughing than we did talking seriously.
Together we bridged the gap between producer and consumer.
Writing an idea
In the particular case of my book Where am I Wearing?, living the idea was as difficult and as important as writing about it. Still, tackling weighty and controversial issues such as globalization, outsourcing, labor rights, and child labor was more than a little daunting at times. I think that when people hear about the book they often think I'll be standing on my soapbox preaching at them for 272 pages. But I didn't want to write a book like that.
So, like my travels, I focused on the workers. Each day I sat at my desk, flipped on my digital picture frame with photos of Arifa, Nari, Ai, Mr. Li, Zhu Chun, and all of the rest, and wrote their stories. In an effort to make sense of our world, our economy, and to answer the question at the heart of my book – "Where Am I Wearing?" – I took my perspective as a consumer and melded it with theirs as a producer. The result is a story that is every bit theirs as it is mine.
What started as a random excuse to travel inspired by a 70's pop icon on my T-shirt, became so much more.

The Big Idea: Christopher Barzak
Perspective is a hard thing to come by, even for a writer, whose job description, if one thinks about it for a minute, is all about perspective. And so when Christopher Barzak was almost randomly offered a chance to change his perspective, he jumped at the chance — and had a series of experiences which have lead to his latest novel, The Love We Share Without Knowing. "Barzak's perceptive writing evinces the fragile and overwhelming desire for meaning and love," Publishers Weekly notes in its review, which suggests that Barzak indeed has gotten a new view of the world, and has succeeded in sharing it.
What was this change in perspective? Here's Barzak to tell you all about it.
In 2004 I moved to Japan to take a job teaching English in a Japanese elementary and junior high school system. Friends from grad school had gone over several months before, and through e-mail had asked me, "Hey, what are you doing back in the States?"
I replied, "I just finished writing a novel. Other than that, not much."
"Why don't you come over here, then?" my friends asked.
I had always wanted to live in another culture, just to know what that would feel like, since I was a teenager. I grew up in a rural small town in Ohio, where the quality of sameness was so prevalent that my imagination became my strongest faculty; the means by which I could encounter difference. So when my friends invited me over, saying they could get me a job, after deliberating for a few days, I wrote back, "Okay, sure, why not?" After all those years of imagining a life for myself elsewhere, I figured I had better seize the chance to make that a reality.
Japan, however, had never been on my map of places I wanted to visit, let alone places I wanted to live. So I agreed with some reluctance. The fact that I had graduated with an MA in English/Creative Writing and was living in the Rustbelt City of Youngstown, Ohio where there were very few opportunities for a person with a graduate degree in English, though, aided me in making a decision to leave my home and live in a country to which I had no strong connection or desire to visit. Times were hard. Bush was president (I already speak of this in the past tense, probably unwisely). The tenor of America was harsh, unkind, divided by our own ideas of ourselves. Why not live elsewhere for a while, I figured?
So I arrived in Japan without much expectation, other than I was about to enter a strange land. What I discovered, though, on the other side, was a place where I was suddenly free of all the cultural conflicts of America. Japan certainly has its own problems, but I was now a free agent. Being a foreigner comes with many benefits. One of those benefits is a sort of freedom from participating in both one's host culture as well as being free of the rules and regulations of one's home culture. If you have never experienced this before, I highly recommend it.
Early on in what came to be my two-year stay in the Land of the Rising Sun, I began writing stories. At first I thought they were short stories. After the first two, though, I realized there were character overlaps, and by the time I wrote a third one, it was clear that the people I was writing about were all connected to one another, even though they themselves did not realize their own connections, the way they were influencing and affecting one another's lives without knowing.
Soon I found myself halfway through the first draft of a novel in which I was trying to make sense of being a racial minority for the first time in my life, a foreigner in a country that had military bases full of my own country's people living on them, how growing up with a foreign military in your own back yard must feel. I found myself writing a novel about Americans who have chosen to leave their country because of their great disappointment with it, a novel about Japanese characters who felt alienated in their own homeland for its own cultural limitations, a novel about how easy it is to feel alone in the world, whatever part of the world you may live in, for any number of reasons, but how our aloneness is the common thread that binds us together.
I found myself in Japanese art museums, staring at long folding screens, the panels of which Japanese artists have been painting with epic imagery for centuries, depicting movements in their cultural history, and wondering if a novel might not be made to emulate that visual structure. I found myself learning a new language, becoming friends with children for the first time in ages, learning how to care for young people, how to befriend someone even though we did not share a common language, how to be grateful for the amazing kindnesses perfect strangers gave to me throughout my time there, helping a foreigner in ways that I could not imagine many people in my own country, Land of Learn the Language!, performing so honorably and with such ease as the Japanese.
I found myself remembering what it is like to live in a true community. It had been a long time since I'd felt that. Because of the loss of an economic foundation in the Rustbelt, in places like Youngstown, Ohio, I'd grown up in a place where people did their best but were wary of each other, afraid that kindness would only lead to someone taking advantage of them-the curse of capitalism, to capitalize, to take advantage. Because I'd left a country behind that was so divided by our differences from one another, I found myself able to begin making a relationship with the world again, rather than trying to run away from it. I found myself smiling and happy when a Japanese person who spoke little English trying to anyway-famously saying, "Please! Enjoy!" Two words that indicate a welcoming, and a wish for a guest to make themselves at home. If you know no other words in another language, those are two of the loveliest to know.
That's the Big Idea of my novel, The Love We Share Without Knowing. A novel is never just one big idea, though. A novel is a constellation of ideas. There are more ideas, big and small, in this book. Please! Enjoy! Please enjoy them all.

My LosCon Schedule
Just a reminder that it's not too late for you to spend your Thanksgiving weekend with me at LosCon, Los Angeles' foremost science fiction convention, at which I am guest of honor this year. Hey, I'm more exciting than all that leftover turkey you'll have.
For those of you who are coming, here is my schedule of panels and stuff, taken mostly from the descriptions sent along to me:
Friday 11/28, 12:00pm OPENING CEREMONIES
The Official Opening & Welcoming to the convention. Come and hope for surprises.
Friday, 12:30pm PARODY, PASTICHE, AND HUMOR
There's a time and place for everything. Or is there? Does humor have a place in modern fiction? Can there ever be too much?
Friday, 4:15pm BOOKS THAT SHOULD BE FILMED
Everyone talks about what has been filmed. Here is a discussion of works that haven't been filmed but should be. What should you look for to make a good film? What won't translate from the printed word to the visual media? Why haven't these works been made?
Saturday 11/29, 1:45pm STYLE VS. SUBSTANCE
Is science fiction becoming too concerned about literary style at the expense of storytelling?
Saturday, 3:00pm FILMS 2008
Not for the squeamish. That describes a number of the science fiction and fantasy films that have come out this year. It also describes the reviews a number of films have received. Come hear our experts' opinions and see how they differ from yours.
Saturday, 4:15pm Guest of Honor John Scalzi
Loscon's Writer Guest of Honor John Scalzi hops onto the stage for a free-wheeling Q&A session about everything and (most) anything, from his Hugo-nominated works of science fiction to his having been an in-house writer for AOLand, perhaps, even about taping bacon to a cat.
Saturday, 5:30pm (ish) SUPER HAPPY FUN TIME WITH WIL AND SCALZI
Wil Wheaton and I take to the stage and do… what? Hell if we know. We're making this up as we go along. But we might take audience questions and suggestions.
Sunday 11/30, 12:30pm RELIGION IN SF BOOKS & MOVIES
Religion is frequently ignored in science fiction and fantasy. But sometimes it isn't. How is it treated? Do we see standard Earth religions or all-new ones? Or ones that just think they're all new? Some authors seem to think that, come the future, all people will just abandon their religious beliefs. Does that seem likely?
Sunday, 1:45pm AUTOGRAPHING
Need a book signed? That's what Scalzi's here for.
See? That's a jam-packed schedule of wackiness. And naturally when I'm not on panels, I'll generally be hanging about, so feel free to come up and say hello and stuff. And when you're sick of me, there's tons of other stuff to do, too. You can't beat that.
And Just Where Have I Been All Day?
Well, here's a two word hint for you:
ANIMAL STYLE.
Away For Most of The Day
Try to find a way to carry on. I know it will be hard. But I believe in you.
Yearly on the Vigil I Will Feast My Neighbors, Strip My Sleeves and Say "These Wounds I Had on St. Yogurt's Day"
By request, the Yogurt Wound:
Fortunately, the wound is not on my pointing hand. I could have been out of commission for weeks.
Newly Added to My List of "Things I Have Done That You Probably Haven't"
"Cut myself on yogurt."
Yes, yogurt. Not the container, the actual yogurt.
And not just cut myself. Made myself bleed.
It takes a special kind of person to cut themselves on a thixotropic food product; apparently, I am that kind of person. I don't know how I feel about that. It's not exactly the most manly thing I've ever done. On the other hand, how many others can claim such a distinction? I'm thinking not very many. Ever. So I have that going for me.
Status Stuff
* This is my now obligatory "I've caught with all my e-mail for the last couple of weeks so if you sent me something and wanted a response but didn't get one, send it again" notice.
* This next week is likely to see Whatever on an abbreviated schedule of some sort, on account that I have some work to catch up with, there's a major holiday at some point in the week (I think near the end of it; I'll have to double-check) and because at some point I am traveling to Los Angeles to do the Loscon thing. Which is to say, hey, I'll be busy in the real world. I expect you might be too. But to help make up for it, I'm posting a Big Idea two-fer this Tuesday. Yes! Two Big Idea pieces for the price of one! And now you have a reason to live, at least through Tuesday.
Thank you for your attention. You are now free to go on with your lives.


The ROARlty coronation ceremony will kick off homecoming week at 7 p.m. Oct. 16 in the McAfee Gym.
The coronation will involve the crowning of Homecoming King and Queen, Prince and Princess, as well as Faculty King and Queen and Lil' Prince and Princess.
The nomination and choosing process differs for each of those spots, Ishmael Williams said.
The process for homecoming king and queen and prince and princess are the same, with both having an application, an interview and voting to determine who wins.
The interview process happened over the weekend, with candidates being asked questions, many pertaining to the spirit of Eastern, with the scoring of said interviews accounting for 60 percent of their entire score.
The only difference between the king and queen and the prince and princess are the age groups: prince and princess are underclassmen where as king and queen are upperclassmen.
To start the coronation process, potential nominees are nominated by their RSO and have to reach certain academic standing requirements.
The only requirement is that nominees are on campus, full-time students.
Coronation chair Allorah Miles-L'Hote said a focus for the committee this year was to step away from the stigma that involved persons must be affiliated with Greek life.
Faculty King and Queen are nominated by students who fill out an application explaining why their teacher should be elected.
Lil' Prince and Princess are local children whose parents enter an application for and are used as a way to get the Charleston community involved.
Miles-L'Hote said another important aspect of homecoming is the spirit of togetherness that happens when students show up to support each other.
The ceremony itself differs from year to year in decoration and set-up, and they hope this brings students new and old out to the night's ceremony, both Williams and Miles-L'Hote said.
Miles-L'Hote said the shared showing of school spirit brings the campus, and all those in it, closer together and more unified.
"It comes back to spirit, I think that's a really important aspect of it, I think it bonds us closer together and, while we're not a family, we are a 'panther family', and I think that's important and I think that Eastern is one of those few schools that really has that aspect about it," Miles-L'Hote said.


Boy Scouting at FPC has had a long and rich tradition. Troop 121 was chartered prior to 1915 and is the oldest troop in Florida. Dedicated leaders and youth meet Wednesday evenings for action-packed meetings based on teaching the ideals of Scouting through the Patrol method and the concept of the boy led Troop.
Boy Scouts meet on Monday evening from 7:30 – 9 p.m.
Cub Scout Pack 121 meets every Monday evening for Den and Pack meetings. The unit strives to provide a quality program with all the traditional events such as the Pinewood Derby, the Blue & Gold Banquet and many summertime events. Scouts are placed in age appropriate Dens for a fast-paced year of family-oriented fun.
Cub Scouts Pack 121 meets on Mondays from 6 – 7 p.m.
Children participating in Brownies and Cub Scouts are invited to work on their God & Family or God & Me scout awards. These special programs encourage children to learn more about their faith and can be tailored to fit any schedule.
For more information, contact Dave Ryan at 293-9745.


Interior building enhancements, including upgrading the gymnasium floor and sound system in the cafeteria.
"Reading Counts", the Fall Dance and teacher appreciation.
Enrichment of the classroom experience, with the purchase of supplies and technology to increase academic goals.
Strategic Teacher Grants that expand on the curriculum and special projects.
All meets take place on the 3rd Thursday of the month from 9:15-11:15 am at Newton. Please sign in at the front office and they will give you the room number.

Does Spike deliver the new costumes or can any of the other costumes create the new costume?
Any chest from any costume can have any costume piece. Keeping that in mind, the rarer the piece, the less likely you will get that piece in a chest.
You can also obtain any costume pieces you need in the Marketplace.


Have you ever published this? Its amazing and really resonated with me. Beautiful writing and such an important thing to talk about so thank you.
Thanks for asking permission, Sadie: Go for it! Just as long as you credit me as the author and original source, that's totally fine. Good luck with your performance!
I absolutely love this spoken word! I too struggle with anorexia and have for about 13 years now. I was wondering if I would be able to use this piece for a monologue competition coming up next Saturday? I just need your name to cite you and give you the credit for the amazing work you've composed.
Hi Madeline! I'm so glad you enjoyed this piece, and I'm flattered as all hell that you'd like to perform it 🙂 By all means, go ahead! My name's Allison Epstein (rhymes with "green," not with "mine," if you have to say it out loud) for citation. And if you want to let me know how the competition goes, that would be great too!
Just like the comment above, I have a drama competition and was wondering if I could possibly use this as a monologue? I would definitely credit you of course!

As We Move Into 2015, Will It Be The Year Of The African Media?
At the beginning of 2014, we?highlighted the contributions and achievements of African women who made a positive impact on the continent and in the Diaspora in their various spheres of influence. Looking back on the past year, there?s no denying that the African media experienced quite an impactful refreshing. Where in years past, the continent spoke with fragmented voices, the entrance of social media into the conversation enabled a cohesive and powerful voice, uniting the African opinion.
Social Media played a major role in uniting all on issues related to the continent. For one, we all became very well acquainted with the #Ebola hashtag. Even though the Ebola outbreak of 2014 has still not reached a positive conclusion, especially in West Africa, the widespread use of social media to communicate the severity of the Ebola outbreak greatly enhanced much needed awareness. To put this all in context, the last Ebola virus which occurred in Uganda through January 2013 barely had a social media impact. This was partly due to a lower social media participation in Africa, combined with the very important fact that there were only six reported human cases in the former incidence. The current outbreak has had the largest impact of all time, with over 20,000 reported cases and 7,588 deaths. We also saw the launch of African agency led platforms, Ebola Deeply and Africa Responds as well as the contributions of some of the continent?s top musicians in addressing the epidemic. It has been a ground breaking year for public health, and even as affected nations begin to move into recovery, the voices of the media will be just as important in transmitting relevant content and information.
In an age of rapid media distribution of information, atrocities such as Boko Haram, a sect whose very name alludes to its vilification of education, have been unable to evade the public eye. The African media followed the sect as they infiltrated numerous communities and places of worship, and slaughtered a countless number of innocent individuals in their campaign of destruction. The violence continues with no clearly defined rationale or reason other than a vaguely articulated and mostly irrational desire to establish a ?caliphate? with them at the helm. Twitter handles such as @BokoHaramWatch will continue to provide 24/7 monitoring of the terrorist activities.
The #BringBackOurGirls hashtag is probably the biggest African social media export. On April 15 2014, a convoy of vans, trucks and buses made their way towards a girls? boarding facility at a secondary school in northeast Nigeria. The large vehicle?s capacity blatantly divulged a preempted effort to kidnap a large number of girl children for deplorable reasons. That night, over 200 girls were kidnapped from their school, most of whom have never been heard from again, the terrorist kidnappers maintaining that the girls have since been sold off or married. Although the social media campaign has not led to the absolute return of the kidnapped Chibok girls, it brought the campaign to the forefront, making it truly global. U.S. First Lady Michelle Obama has been seen supporting the movement. As one of the leaders of the BringBackOurGirls campaign, Nigeria?s Oby Ezekwesili mentioned, the Chibok girls are a symbol of how we, as Africans, will define ourselves going forward as a society. Be rest assured that the voice of the media will scream even louder in 2015, as the nation continues to demand accountability and action.
Amma Asante
Of course with the lows have come the highs, and we would be remiss if we didn?t highlight media personalities who we think you should be on the lookout for the minute the clock strikes midnight. While we can clearly agree that the continent has produced many talented film directors and producers, we witnessed African influenced media achieve a new prominence. The past year brought about the critically acclaimed movie, Belle, written by Misan Sagay and directed by Amma Asante, and was inspired by the 1779 painting of Dido Elizabeth Belle. Award winning director, Amma Asante certainly turned heads for her outstanding work in directing the motion picture, and she is certainly one to watch as we move into the year. Nigerian film producer and director, Kunle Afolayan is already kicking the year off on the right note as viewers and critics continue to applaud him on October 1, a depiction of the circumstances surrounding colonial Africa?s struggle for independence. Written by Tunde Babalola, October 1 won the award for best feature film at the 2014 Africa International Film Festival. With a number of other films and documentaries slated for release in 2015, major players will continue to be followed, and listened to, in 2015.
In 2014, we continued to witness the rise of established talk shows including Moments with Mo, the first syndicated daily talk show on African regional television, hosted by Nigeria?s Mosunmola Abudu. Other show host greats include South Africa?s Alan Khan and Nigeria?s Funmi Iyanda but of course, if this ex-beauty queen?s title as Most Beautiful Girl in Nigeria wasn?t enough to make Nike Oshinowo a house hold name, 2015 may just be her year. In 2014, Oshinowo officially launched her talk show, Late Night with Nike Oshinowo, and the country looks forward to taking a seat on her couch.
We cannot forget creative influences like South Africa?s best-known cartoonist Jonathan Shapiro also known as Zapiro, who put out his latest collection DemoCRAZY: South Africa?s Twenty-year Trip, which quite humorously records the South African journey over the last two decades. The controversial artist will continue to be celebrated in 2015, even as he continues to illustratively ?go there?. Comedian Trevor Noah will be waving in the New Year as a contributor on Comedy Central?s late night satirical show, The Daily Show, a role he began in December 2014, where he will be taking on a wide variety of issues. We have a feeling that he will continue to be as hilarious as ever.
In 2015, we fully expect the African media to continue its growth trajectory with an added emphasis on global relevance. We expect that new African voices will also be more influential authorities in all spheres, as the continent continues to tell its story.
Cheers to a great 2015!

Virginia Senate Approves Bill Banning 'Ex-Gay' Therapy; Two Transgender Rights Bills
Carlos Santoscoy
Four LGBT rights bills cleared the Virginia Senate on Tuesday.
A bill that would prohibit therapies that attempt to alter the sexual orientation and gender identity of LGBT youth passed with a 20-18 vote, the Washington Blade reported. Eighteen states plus the District of Columbia prohibit such therapies.
The Senate also approved two transgender rights bills. One would allow transgender students to use school facilities consistent with their gender identity, while the other would make it easier for transgender people to update their name and sex on their birth certificate.
A fourth bill, approved with a 25-13 vote, seeks to repeal the state's ban on same-sex marriage. While unenforceable since a 2014 ruling, same-sex marriage has been prohibited by statute in Virginia since 1975. In 2006, voters approved a constitutional amendment that defines marriage as a heterosexual union. The Supreme Court in 2015 ruled that gay and lesbian couples have a constitutional right to marry, effectively striking down such bans nationwide.
A bill that would prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity has also been introduced. The Senate General Laws Committee will hear testimony on the bill on Wednesday.
(Related: LGBT protections bill introduced in Virginia.)
The flood of LGBT rights bills were introduced after Democrats regained control of the House and Senate for the first time since 1996.

The government has reported on the results of its call for evidence on the subject of out-of-school education settings. Views were sought in November 2015 on proposals to introduce a new system of regulation to bring in registration, investigation and intervention for out-of-school settings that teach children extensively.
Prohibited activities (failure to adequately ensure child's safety in their care, appointing unsuitable staff, accommodating children in unsafe premises, corporal punishment and undesirable teaching - including teaching that undermines or is incompatible with fundamental British values, or promotes extremist views).
On considering consultation responses, the government has decided not to pursue the model proposed in the call for evidence, but it instead intends to develop further the evidence base for a national approach, including future legislation where gaps in existing powers are identified.
The government will work with local authorities to provide guidance to parents on out-of-school settings to help them make an informed choice (again reconfirming the commitment in the integrated communities strategy).

Last weekend we headed to downtown Greenville with Max DiNatale and Orion Yorke. We had met Max through the very popular Pickle The Pig instagram account, which if you don't follow already, you definitely should. Max is a media buyer at an advertising agency during the day but loves modeling. He has modeled for many companies from local clothing stores to international companies like Verizon and Delta. When he isn't modeling, he loves watching films, from classic, horror to modern he loves it all.
We teamed up with Orion Yorke who is one of the hottest young guns in town to bring you this video. We met Orion by chance, and I am so inspired by his talent. I can't wait to share with everyone our future collaborations. Check out his Youtube Channel.
"There is the person in the mirror and then there is more. I was asked to explore the more, to draw out the glamour and unsheathe my feathers, the lack of which lately friends have wondered about, but not pursued. It is rare to have someone who believes in your essence more than you do, more so to render it in your liking. That is the work of Jorge Gonzalez."

Q: RxJS - which operator can combine history of last N events? I'm looking for an operator which transform the stream to the stream with history or last N events.
So for a stream e.g. like this one:
clicks$.subscribe((ev) => ...)

I would like to have something like:
clicks$.pipe(
   historyOf(2)
).subscribe(([ev, ev-1, ev-2]) => ...)

Does the operator like this exists, or is there an easy way to combine existing operators to achieve the desired effect?

A: You can use ideally bufferCount or depending how you want to handle the beginning or termination of the sequence when there're less than N events also scan or filter:
const N = 3;

of(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7).pipe(
  bufferCount(N, 1), // `1` means it'll emit after every emission from source
).subscribe(console.log);

... or if you want to skip emissions when the chain completes:
of(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7).pipe(
  bufferCount(N, 1),
  filter(arr => arr.length === N),
).subscribe(console.log);

... or if you want the beginning events as well:
of(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7).pipe(
  scan((acc, item) => [...acc, item].slice(-N), []),
).subscribe(console.log);

A: I've started a (very) small library of some rxjs utils I've wanted. It happens to have one that may interest you: withHistory. From the docs:
source:         -1----2------3--------4--------5--------|
withHistory(2): -[1]--[2,1]--[3,2,1]--[4,3,2]--[5,4,3]--|
withHistory(0): -[1]--[2]----[3]------[4]------[5]------|

The library is here: https://github.com/simontonsoftware/s-rxjs-utils

Q: Type of a returned class Update: as chepner points out in the comments, creating the class in the function is a bad idea, it performs ten to eighty times slower than other solutions. See the performance comparison in my self-answer, which also shows how to do the typing.

I do this:
def get_an_x():
    class X:
        foo = 1
        bar = 'Hello'
        baz = None
    return X

get_an_x returns a class X, which serves as a plain structure.
What is the type of this class X? Doing def get_an_x() -> type: ... (that what type(X) returns) will not work, then PyCharms's type checker does not detect the attributes of X. Annotating the attributes with ClassVar[...] also does not help.
I have seen this answer, but doing def get_an_x() -> type[X]: ... does not work, because I define the class inside the function, and it is not seen from outside.

A: The issue is, every time you call foo, it returns a different class. If it had a base class, you could annotate it with typing.Type[Base], to at least show the base's attributes. But in your situation I'd suggest you to either let your IDE figure it out without annotations, or to annotate it as typing.Type.
One more option you have is creating a protocol, if you know the exact attribute set in advance, and using it for the annotation

A: Updated Answer
Creating a class in a function and returning it, is a bad idea. It is very slow. There are other ways to do this:
### INITIALISATION

## CLASS INSTANCE
# Structural type info, fastest (except simple tuples).

class MyInstance:
  __slots__ = ['foo', 'bar']
  def __init__(self, foo: int, bar: str):
    self.foo = foo
    self.bar = bar

## DATA CLASS
# https://docs.python.org/3/library/dataclasses.html
# Structural type info, fast.

from dataclasses import dataclass

@dataclass
class MyDataclass:
  foo: int
  bar: str

## SIMPLE NAMESPACE
# https://docs.python.org/3/library/types.html#types.SimpleNamespace
# No structural type info, fast.
# The structure can change, it is useful when working with JSON, see e.g.
# https://medium.com/@shashank_iyer/
#   simplify-json-access-with-simplenamespace-e91f5a09345b

from types import SimpleNamespace

## NAMED TUPLE
# https://docs.python.org/3/library/typing.html#typing.NamedTuple
# Structural type info, slightly slower than above solutions.
# It is a tuple under the hood.

from typing import NamedTuple

MyNamedTuple = NamedTuple('MyNamedTuple', foo=int, bar=str)

## CLASS WITH PROTOCOL (not recommened)
# https://docs.python.org/3/library/typing.html#typing.Protocol
# Structural type info, 10 to 80 times slower than above solutions!

from typing import Protocol

class MyClass(Protocol):
  foo: int
  bar: str

def make_my_class(fooparam: int, barparam: str) -> MyClass:
  class my_class:
    foo = fooparam
    bar = barparam
  return my_class

### USAGE

## PERFORMANCE

from timeit import timeit

def performance(it, does, times=1_000_000):
  timing = timeit(does, number=times)
  print(f"{it:<12} {timing:6.3f}")

performance('instance', lambda: MyInstance(1, 'Hello'))
performance('dataclass', lambda: MyDataclass(1, 'Hello'))
performance('namespace', lambda: SimpleNamespace(foo=1, bar='Hello'))
performance('namedtuple', lambda: MyNamedTuple(foo=1, bar='Hello'))
performance('class', lambda: make_my_class(fooparam=1, barparam='Hello'))

# For comparision, the performance of simple datatypes
performance('tuple', lambda: (1, 'Hello'))
performance('list', lambda: [1, 'Hello'])
performance('dict', lambda: {'foo': 1, 'bar': 'Hello'})
performance('set', lambda: {1, 'Hello'})

## RESULTS

# instance      0.478
# dataclass     0.568
# namespace     0.483
# namedtuple    0.796
# class        14.904  # varies between 10 and 25 seconds
# tuple         0.344
# list          0.591
# dict          0.666
# set           0.707

Original Answer
Protocol, suggested by abel1502, seems to do what I want:
from typing import Protocol

class X(Protocol):
  foo: str
  bar: int
  baz: None

def get_an_x() -> X:

  class x:
    foo = 'the answer'
    bar = 42
    baz = None

  return x

Now PyCharms type checker detects wrong types and non-existing or unknown attributes:
# These are ok

x: X = get_an_x()

foo: str = x.foo
bar: int = x.bar
baz: None = x.baz

# These are type errors

unknown = x.unknownattribute
wrong_type: int = x.foo
wrong_x: str = get_an_x()

def get_a_wrong_x() -> X:

  class x:
    foox = 'the answer'
    bar = '42'

  return x

Reuben's Terrible Sin
"Turbulent as the waters, you will no longer excel, for you went up onto your father's bed, onto my couch and defiled it" (Genesis 49:4).
Before he died, Jacob called his sons to him and passed on to them the blessings—and the judgments—of the covenant God had instituted with Abraham and passed on to him. It was customary in the old covenant, and in fact made formally legal in the Sinaitic law, for the firstborn son to receive a double portion of the inheritance, and to be the captain of his brethren (Deuteronomy 21:15–17). Jacob calls attention to this as he speaks to his firstborn, "Reuben, you are my firstborn, my might, the first sign of my strength, excelling in honor, excelling in power" (Genesis 49:3).
What a statement this is. Reuben as firstborn excels in everything imaginable. How horrible it is, then, for this excellent son to fall into monstrous sin and pervert these great gifts. Yet this is what happens almost every time in Genesis: the firstborn is set aside because of his sin, and a later son inherits because of his faithfulness. Ishmael is set aside in favor of Isaac. Esau is set aside in favor of Jacob. Cain was set aside in favor of Abel, and then of Seth. Adam, the most excellent of all men, possessing in his genes every strength of the human race, was set aside in favor of the Second Adam.
What was Reuben's great sin? It is recounted briefly in Genesis 35:22. It was the sin of incest. Before Sinai, 'brother-sister' incest was not forbidden, and Abraham, in fact, married his sister (as did Adam's sons). According to Genesis 2:24, however, cross-generational incest was forbidden from the beginning (compare Genesis 19:30–38). Thus, under the Sinaitic covenant, cross-generational incest carried the death penalty, while brother-sister incest did not (Leviticus 20).
Reuben's sin of incest was also a sin of seizing his father's robe. In the ancient world, sleeping with your predecessor's concubines, or at least taking over responsibility for them, was a sign that you had taken over his kingdom (see 2 Samuel 3:7–8; 16:22; 1 Kings 2:21–22). To do this while the father still lived was an attack on his authority (Deuteronomy 22:30; 27:20). Had Reuben been patient, he would have inherited Jacob's realm, but because he was impatient and tried to seize it prematurely, he lost it altogether.
The story of Reuben illustrates how easy it is for one sin to lead to another. At the root was Reuben's coveting of his father's authority and his concubines. Pray that the Spirit of God would give you an abiding sense of contentment that you would not be led into one sin followed by another.
