While selecting a tattoo with a wording, a person needs to pick up a phrase or a word that would be meaningful and carry some value for the user. In this case we've got a tattoo with a word "life". It shows us an importance and need to value life in all aspects and forms. This option is made in an elegant and stylish handwriting that would be mostly suitable for some lady rather than for a man. The males would prefer the text in some sharp edged font.
"Let Us Compare Mythologies" is the first collection of poems that was written by a popular Canadian writer Leonard Cohen. In his works he used to present the biblical and mythological images that were distributed through the words of some wise prophet. This is an awesome reminder that all the things have something in common and that all of the ideas and images derivate from a single common source.
A tattoo can become a wonderful teacher when it comes to remembering something of a great importance. These words on the forearms of the person "Forget " and "Forgive" are an excellent reminder that there is no need to remember something bad that was done to you as it is a total waste of energy. Try to forgive a person for the wrong doings and forget about this. It will make your life much easier.
The text that you can see on the hand of the person is the lyrics of the third single by Chris Daughtry that was entitled "Over You". It was an award winning song that managed to receive BMI Award in 2009. As per interview with an author, the song advises us not to get discouraged, if we lose our love. Once the time has come we can find a new one that will be even better and stronger.
This is a tattoo that was probably inspired by the song of a famous band Depeche Mode. It shows us that the world is filled with noise and meddling. Sometimes the best way to bring your thoughts to order is to sit in a quiet place together with your inner self and try to understand the world around better. In this aspect silence is your best friend that can assist you in your spiritual searches.
What can be special in this simple tattoo? It is composed with a single word and one might think that there is not much to tell. However, it would be better to say that this tattoo is a wonderful teacher that can teach us the most important thing – when you are alive, it means that everything is possible. You need to put all the efforts in order to achieve your goal while you are still capable.
This is a quotation of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry from his world famous story "The Little Prince". It shows that it is very important to be able to release your emotions. It can be translated as "He lied on the grass and started crying". The little prince became overwhelmed with sadness and just couldn't control his emotions and burst into tears. The Flower told him that it's natural to cry and one should not be shy of it.
This is a phrase from the refrain of the song by Peter Gabriel "In your Eyes". As per the author of the song he sings about love. This is love not only between a man and a woman, but also between a person and God. The very phrase means that if you are totally naked there is someone to love you and stay nearby, offering support and a friendly shoulder.
The word "saudade" is not just another word. This is a special state of soul that is used by Portuguese and Brazilian people which describes a state of deep nostalgia of someone with whom the person is deeply affected with. It can be compared with a strong longing to see the person or experience the feeling of love and passion that were for some reason lost. In other words it is the remnant of the lost love that keeps the heart warm.
It's time for Latin quotations in our list of word tattoos and it is better to start with one of the most popular ones: "Carpe Diem". It literally means grasp the Momentum. The phrase orders us to live within the moment of now without wasting your time upon the thoughts about past and worries about the future. The most important thing is living here and trying to live in the best possible manner.
Here we've got a French word "sauvee" that is depicted on the person's forearm in a fine black cursive writing. It means "saving". This tattoo can be a soul's scream for saving by some divine entity like God or angel protector. It's something like a talisman which will calm down the person in the most difficult moment and bring the feeling of security whenever something happens.
Love can come in various shapes and forms and it can bring the widest range of emotions. Love is the feeling that has been described by so many poets in their verses. It was made so that a person would never forget that love is one of the most fantastic things in the world and that people should cherish it and grant respect while it is still possible. Love can make wonderful magic and bring renovation and peace to the whole world. The only thing one needs to do is to accept it.
#13 For the Sake of Creation!
You live when you create something! That is one of the ultimate truths that was stated by the philosophers of all times. The ability to create something is placed into our body by the demiurge himself and many people often neglect this capability. The ability to create something can be seen not only in something unusual, but also in totally common things like baking, sewing, doing some housework etc. That is why each person has a potential of the creator and shouldn't forget about this.
Here we've got another tattoo that was inspired by a song. This time it was a song that was created by The Gazette with the name "Filth in the Beauty" that immediately became a maxi single. Such a tattoo can be accepted as a tribute to the creator of the song or as a wise quotation that means that beautiful is not always good and positive. A lot of filth can hide beneath the mask of beauty, pretending to be such.
This tattoo with a Latin quotation can become a great life teacher as many tattoos do for people. It carries an important message from the ancient Roman drama writer Horatius. By this simple phrase the author tries to stimulate us to enjoy the moment of here and now and never believe in future predictions as they might turn out to be either false or unlikely to come true. Only the moment of present is of a primary importance, everything else is secondary.
The phrase on the body art belongs to a popular fictional character Peter Pan. During the Act three of the play the eternal boy understands that he is really afraid of death but later on he accepts it with a one single phrase "To die will be an awfully big adventure". Perhaps that means that death is still not the end, it is just a continuation of a story.
In fact, there are many quotations from Harry Potter books that are worth mentioning. For example, here we've got a fine quotation from the dialogue between Lily and Severus Snape, while they weren't wizards yet. It was the phrase that was said by Snape regarding the magical world that existed around them in a total invisibility. He promised that everything that seemed a fantasy will become a reality for both of them.
Someone might think what can be motivational in a phrase: "Things I can't". If you look further after these words there is a blank space that can be interpreted with a single phrase "there is nothing that I can't do". It shows us that a person is capable of anything and has a limitless potential of achieving goals under any circumstances, ready to overcome difficulties of any type.
This is an extract from John 3:16 verse that can be considered a fundamental pillar of the whole Christianity. This is an engraving of the idea that Celestial Father has sacrificed his one and only son in order to bring redemption for people's sins and grant them eternal life after death. This is supposed to be an excellent preventive measure against sin as people should remember what sacrifice has been done for their sake.
There is nothing more pleasant than a reminder of some important event. It may be done on the body of the person. This might be an example of the birthday of a precious person like a child, a wife, a mother etc. It looks awesomely stylish and attractive. Moreover, it will be pleasant for a person for whom it has been done to see it imprinted on a skin. The tattoo reflects a really strong emotion towards a person with whom you've got a strong bond.
The canvas of a person's skin can be used for writing down all important events that have taken place in the life of the wearer of such tattoos. With the flow of time the person will place the vital events on the skin so that a user could remember the most memorable moments in his or her life. The best thing about such designs is that each date can be designed in a totally different style, color and font to see the difference in the list. The back is the best place for writing down the information as it has got the greatest amount of space.
One word can change entire lives of nations and people. The only word "IF" changed the fate of the whole nation of Laconia, when the Spartans invaded their territory. Here we see a simple word "Strength". It is obvious from the sense of the world that tattoo reflects the desire of the owner of might and power. It's obvious that it is not only physical strength, but also any sort of moral and spiritual might that is necessary for dealing with problems.
Very often people prefer writing the words which carry the ultimate importance for them. In this case we've got the word "loyalty" that was scribed on the back of a person in a fancy eye style design. Loyalty is not only an state between people in love, but also between friends, partners, spiritual mates etc. It can be interpreted in a way that you are loyal to the surrounding people and demand the same thing in return.
Sometimes when everything around seems too difficult to comprehend and the life situations seem unsolvable, there is a very simple mean to make things right without wasting too much energy and efforts. You just need to relax and let it go. Keeping it simple is often the best way out of any situation as during facing difficulties people tend to complicate everything.
The charismatic alter ego of the protagonist from the "Fighting club" – Tyler Durden said this unforgettable phrase to himself. It states that sitting on a single spot and doing the same thing day by day is a useless thing that transforms a person into the amount of numbers, a statistics that will be of no worth for everyone. The person should rise and fight in order to obtain the state of human. The fighting is an allegory to the ability to setting and achieving goals.
The word that is engraved on the wrist has multiple meanings. One of them is returning back from the kingdom of death. However, there is a totally different meaning of such a word. The "revival" can mean a spiritual transformation, when you gain a totally different experience. Revival is an opportunity to start everything from the beginning. It's the ability of every person to have a restart and try to live a totally different life.
Jimi Hendrix was definitely a talented artist, but, in addition, he was also a wise man. Most of his songs were about love, but he managed to put a deep sense into the lyrics. This quote is among the wisest ones. He states if people understand the power of love and forget about love for power, they will obtain real peace. Many people will agree that love is a total opposite of violence so when love wins, there is no need for violence in the world.
This is a phrase that explains the importance of the family and the necessity to stay always together. Family is always somebody who will be near you, offer a support and aid at the time of need. One needs constantly to remember this, but sometimes the person forgets about it and needs a reminder. A simple text saying that the family needs to be always together is a good memento that will remind of the importance of the closest people.
This tattoo is made in a design of some Mafiosi script. The phrase is very close to the idea that was reflected in Mario Puzzo's "Godfather". As it was often said by Don Vito Corleone the family is something that needs to be always taken care of. Your relatives should be the top priority when making decisions as they are the people who are perpetually near you and know you the best. You need to be grateful to them for they accept you the way you are.
There is a popular trend in fashion to create a tattoo on the back of the owner at the place where the wings of an angel are supposed to be. This tattoo is considered a defense charm against evil as our angel protector will see the text on the back and will do what he is asked for. In this case we've got an art that asks the person to survive under any circumstances. Whenever something happens the preservation of one's life is a top priority.
This elegant tattoo that was performed in a fine handwritten font teaches people not to miss an opportunity during the life. All of us should memorize a simple truth that we live just once and every action that is undertaken carries an equal important significance for future. The chance of life is the most valuable treasure that should be used with wisdom. Every step should be performed with extreme care and with understanding of the possible consequences.
Lust is a feeling of strong affection for something. Here is a description of one of the strongest desires that is characteristic for a human being – the lust for life. This is the most fundamental instinct that is characteristic not only for a person, but for animals as well. It illustrates the fact that if someone enjoys the life at the fullest, it means that the person is really happy.
Tension is not necessary when doing anything. A strong tension is something that prevents people from doing something correctly as it causes stiffness not only in body, but also in mind and spirit, blocking the generation of new ideas. The ability of the person to relax and let something go means seeing beyond the scope of understanding and find a way out easier, faster and more effectively.
This tattoo that is really hard to read is from Twi language that can be translated as "We will meet again". In this simple phrase there is a very deep sense that is far more than just seeing each other once again. It means not just a physical return of the person, but also the retrieval of some emotion one more time. This phrase goes far beyond the scope of physical plane, it is more related to the spiritual and emotional planes.
The tradition of putting a tattoo on the wrist has become extremely popular among people, ladies in particular. It is very convenient to put a memo tattoo at this pot as we tend to look very often at our hands and sometimes even in a pitch black darkness we can see the image of our hands. This tattoo is a reminder that we should experience every moment of life to the fullest.
Back in 1845 a famous abolitionist wrote this phrase in the memoires about his life of a slave. He wished to carry us an important idea that fighting is the means of progress and if we put all our efforts to achieve some goals it will become possible. He set a goal to become a powerful anti-slavery leader and he managed to do this and did a lot of things to assist black people to occupy some posts in the government.
The text of the Corinthians 15:32 says this bold phrase through the lips of one of the soldiers. The person states that every day he faces death and every day seems closer to Lord Jesus. He tells that one should live every second to the fullest as nobody knows when the moment of death may come.
This phrase was said by a famous Danish poet Hans Christian Andersen. It won't be a lie if we say that all people in the world speak various languages, while there is only one language that can bring multiple nations and various people to mutual understanding. Music does not require words, the melody tells us everything so that more people could understand everything.
This tattoo offers a very simple foot solution of body art. It has got a single word that is written in a stylish feminine font and a stylized cross at the end. The word "holy" is the reflection of a strong belief that should be present in the souls of all people.
Here were can see the words naming actions that would be greatly praised by a person with a strong character. The skill to embrace one's dreams is the most powerful action that is necessary for setting one's goal. "Endure" is the action that is necessary to undertake in order to face all the difficulties that will stand on the way to accepting the fate and goal of the person. When combined this two simple actions will transform into a powerful weapon of acquiring an ultimate happiness.
There is a famous illusionist who used to perform in Las Vegas. He is currently involved into charity for children ill with cancer. He performed his shows under the motto "Believe!". He wished to prove that everything is possible in our lives and there is an important thing that must be done while planning something – it's strong belief that everything will end up well!
Another stylish writing of an important word in the life of any person shows us in a symbolical manner that if you believe in something, you will be able to grasp the star from the sky. You know that the heroes of the fairy tales believe in something miraculous and it happens for real. You should also believe in miracles and this body art will remind you about this.
The goal of the person is to create something as it was said in the Bible – God created the person to be similar to him and as the God was the creator of everything, He granted the potential of creativity to the person and one should be wise enough to spend the time creating something.
Despair is considered one of the strongest negative emotions among all and the person requires something to deal with it. The weapon against despair is a strong belief in something good. If you believe that everything will be good – everything will be good! One should never abandon hope as it is the greatest source of motivation for any person.
Another popular fashion for shoulder tattoos is the tattoo with a zodiac sign. Here we have got a stylish tribal style scorpion with a signature that describes one of the qualities that is characteristic of the star sign. One can check out the Internet to find the most suitable phrase and design of the tattoo.
This cute tattoo would be a very characteristic one for a girl who wants her first body art. The flower at the end of the word is a rather girlish attribute. The journey can be as a simple writing or as a reflection of an inner desire of the owner to set off on some sort of a journey. For a teenager a journey and new experience are the most important factors for personality formation.
The Gothic fonts are awesome inspirational tool for creating a tattoo. There is some peculiar fleur of medieval times when you print this tattoo on the wrist. The word "create" is an awesome inspirational memento for a creative person. This would be an excellent tool against procrastination as every time the person would like to avoid the responsibility the word on the wrist will order to create!
It is very often said that people find their reflection in the eyes of their children. The Scottish poet Thomas Campbell stated that we are immortal, but our lives find continuation in the hearts of all the people who's got the memories of us in the hearts of ours. So having the kids means living forever as they will be your continuation.
The extracts from some popular poems are also an inspiration for a body art. Here we can see the phrase from the poem by Ray Bradbury. It tells us about the eternal searches of a human soul for a best place to live and about the beauty of the motherland where the roots of any person are.
It will be a wise phrase to say that peace is one of the most important things for the modern society as this seemingly simple word prevents hundreds of deaths in the wordl and brings happiness and calmeness. The tattto on the shoulder reminds us that it's very important for every single person to maintain peace in the world.

How to cook venison
By Kerrie Wilson	 Last updated Apr 29, 2019
Photo by Gabor Degre
Deer meat has gotten a bad reputation for being a tough, chewy, gamey meat that's difficult to work with and not worth the effort. But with attention and proper handling, venison can be a delicious, healthy alternative to beef.
Wild vs. Farm Raised
Venison is a dark red lean meat with little fat. It has more protein, iron and Vitamin B6 than beef, with one-third the fat content.
"Farm raised deer are milder in flavor, those are the ones sold in stores," said Leon Emery, owner of Emery's Meat and Produce in Brewer, Maine.
"Gamey is a weird concept. In general, gamey is an aroma and not a flavor, and a result of poor handling. Most meat you buy in stores is corn fed, which creates a similar taste profile. With a different diet, it'll taste different. If you've had lean grass fed beef, venison tastes similar," said Hank Shaw, food writer, author of Hunter, Angler, Gardener, Cook and "Buck, Buck, Moose: Recipes and Techniques for Cooking Deer, Elk, Moose, Antelope and Other Antlered Things."
Types of Cuts
Venison has two types of cuts: tender and working. Tender cuts were areas that didn't get much use during the deer's life, so they have a minimal amount of connective tissue.
Tender cut areas are mostly in the back and some parts of the leg muscles, when properly butchered and trimmed. Backstraps, long strips of meat from both sides of the spine, are a popular and versatile tender cut.
Tender cuts are better prepared with quick cooking methods, up to rare or medium rare. The worst thing you can do is overcook venison; it makes the meat rubbery, chewy and dry.
Cooking Venison
"White tailed deer or wild game deer, you can treat a lot like beef. Cooking it rare is okay," Emery said. "Loin steak is the easiest, just some salt, pepper and butter."
Working cuts come from areas with heavily used muscles and have a lot of connective tissue and therefore more flavor than tender cuts. They're found mostly in the shoulder, rib and leg areas.
"I'm more excited to cook the front of the deer: shanks, shoulder and neck. Backstrap is just a steak; nice, but it's one note. You can do all kinds of things with shank. I like to turn an unloved part into the best part of the deer," Shaw said.
Working cuts should be cooked for a long time, at a low temperature to break down the connective tissues.
"Wild venison can taste very gamey in stews; adding a lot of spices can help cover the taste. Rosemary helps a lot with masking the gamey flavor," Emery said.
"Connective tissue becomes your friend when you braise or stew. A nice simmer results in a silky venison because the connective tissue melts," Shaw said.
If you don't want to slow cook a tough cut, you can grind the meat up. Ground venison lends itself to delicious burgers, meatloaf, sausages and meatballs. You can add ground pork for some additional fat content without losing the unique venison flavor.
"Ground venison when it's with pork fat, or beef fat, is better. Ground venison is tricky to work with alone, because it has no fat. I like using pork fat because it has a neutral flavor with a lower melting point," Shaw said.
According to Shaw, the easiest cuts to work with for beginners are shoulders, stew meat or chunks. "It will only need time. Cook it more if it's not tender enough for you," said Shaw.
"Most beginners tend to cook the tender parts too much and the tough parts too little. Don't get hung up about it. Cooking venison is a learning process. It takes practice, but it's not rocket science. Have fun in the kitchen," Shaw said.
Where to get venison
So, where can you get venison to cook?
According to the United States Department of Agriculture Food Safety and Inspection Service, most states allow the hunting of wild game for personal consumption but not to sell. Wild game can — where allowed — be gifted by the hunter who shot it, but the meat has to be packaged and (in Maine) labelled correctly, with the hunter's permit number clearly marked, so the meat is easily traceable, Emery said.
That doesn't mean you won't find venison in stores though. Farm-raised game, such as deer, can be sold.
"Farm raised deer, usually New Zealand Red Deer, is what's sold in stores. It tends to be milder in flavor than wild game," Emery said.

Aragorn or Sauron, Who is Lord of the Palantir?
Later Aragorn tells them that he has looked into the Stone of Orthanc and that there he has confronted Sauron himself. Gimli is horrified, remembering what had happened to Pippin when he looked into it and perhaps thinking, too, of Saruman and how he had been corrupted by Sauron and turned traitor.
The implication in what Gimli says is that Aragorn has no more business looking into this tool of the Dark Lord's than Pippin. Aragorn's response is almost frightening.
It is essential here to understand that Aragorn is not trying to present himself as one who has gained some kind of extra special bragging rights. There is no, "Look at me, everyone!" going on here. This is what it means to respond to a calling. George, Duke of York, was gripped by fear as he approached a coronation that he never expected before his brother, Edward VIII, abdicated. The fear was connected to the terrible stammer from which he suffered, a story told in the film, The King's Speech. Later he was to describe how, when the Archbishop of Canterbury anointed him, a strength came into him and he left Westminster Abbey a different man. He was King George VI. He continued to struggle with many fears and there is a particularly poignant story of a day when he was to meet British troops in North Africa and had almost to be dragged from his tent because once again the fear had overcome him. When I first heard this story my love and admiration for him deepened, knowing the inner fears that he had to overcome, almost daily, in order to fulfil his duty to his people. The struggle ultimately brought him to an early death when in his 50s. Strength is given to fulfil a calling but a price has to be paid as well. This is rarely understood by those who seek power.
That is why Aragorn overcomes Sauron in the struggle for ownership of the Stone of Orthanc, just. He is its true lord and yet he recognises that he is the servant of a destiny that is far greater than he is. Thomas Merton put this tension wonderfully in his book, No Man is an Island.
It is not Aragorn but Sauron who lives in a self-created myth and that is why he loses this struggle but, as Gimli puts it, "he wields great dominion, nonetheless." Aragorn's challenge will bring forth a terrible response.
I love Frodo too although for me that is a recognition that Sam's simple heart is something that I cannot achieve. It just isn't simple or straightforward anymore. And I would follow Aragorn wherever he went. I looked for leaders like him for a long time. There were some good people who seemed afraid to do anything bold. And there were some who, in tough times, used to make it clear that if anyone was going to go down then it was certainly not going to be them. I don't think that I ever met and Aragorn but then maybe the challenge is to be as much like him as I can be in the place where I am. But then I come back to Frodo and I can imagine just putting one foot in front of another and just keeping on going.
If I could then I would certainly vote for him! Great to hear from you again!

The story is set at Myōjō Academy, a private girls' boarding school. All the students in the 10th year's Kurogumi class are assassins with one target, Haru Ichinose. Tokaku Azuma is a recent transfer student who is also targeting Ichinose, but she gradually develops feelings for Ichinose.

"Our Merlot combines fruit from Napa, Sonoma and Monterey. The flavors and textures unique to each region harmonize perfectly to create a wine that has dark succulent fruit balanced by natural acidity. Intense aromatics of raspberry and blueberry lead to flavors of crushed berries, vanilla and leather, which are wrapped up in a soft, smooth tannin structure."

Exclusive: Studies find 'super bacteria' in Rio's Olympic venues, top beaches
By Brad Brooks
RIO DE JANEIRO (Reuters) - Scientists have found dangerous drug-resistant "super bacteria" off beaches in Rio de Janeiro that will host Olympic swimming events and in a lagoon where rowing and canoe athletes will compete when the Games start on Aug. 5.

The findings from two unpublished academic studies seen by Reuters concern Rio's most popular spots for tourists and greatly increase the areas known to be infected by the microbes normally found only in hospitals.
They also heighten concerns that Rio's sewage-infested waterways are unsafe.
A study published in late 2014 had shown the presence of the super bacteria - classified by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) as an urgent public health threat - off one of the beaches in Guanabara Bay, where sailing and wind-surfing events will be held during the Games.
The first of the two new studies, reviewed in September by scientists at the Interscience Conference on Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy in San Diego, showed the presence of the microbes at five of Rio's showcase beaches, including the ocean-front Copacabana, where open-water and triathlon swimming will take place.
The other four were Ipanema, Leblon, Botafogo and Flamengo.
The super bacteria can cause hard-to-treat urinary, gastrointestinal, pulmonary and bloodstream infections, along with meningitis. The CDC says studies show that these bacteria contribute to death in up to half of patients infected.
The second new study, by the Brazilian federal government's Oswaldo Cruz Foundation lab, which will be published next month by the American Society for Microbiology, found the genes of super bacteria in the Rodrigo de Freitas lagoon in the heart of Rio and in a river that empties into Guanabara Bay.
Waste from countless hospitals, in addition to hundreds of thousands of households, pours into storm drains, rivers and streams crisscrossing Rio, allowing the super bacteria to spread outside the city's hospitals in recent years.
Renata Picao, a professor at Rio's federal university and lead researcher of the first study, said the contamination of Rio's famous beaches was the result of a lack of basic sanitation in the metropolitan area of 12 million people.
"These bacteria should not be present in these waters. They should not be present in the sea," said Picao from her lab in northern Rio, itself enveloped by stench from Guanabara Bay.
Cleaning the city's waterways was meant to be one of the Games' greatest legacies and a high-profile promise in the official 2009 bid document Rio used to win the right to host South America's first Olympics.
That goal has instead transformed into an embarrassing failure, with athletes lamenting the stench of sewage and complaining about debris that bangs into and clings to boats in Guanabara Bay, potential hazards for a fair competition.
SITUATION GETTING WORSE
Picao's study, which has undergone internal reviews at Rio's federal university, analyzed water samples taken between September 2013 and September 2014. Using 10 samples taken at five beach locations, the study found super bacteria were most present at Botafogo beach, where all samples were positive.
Flamengo beach, where spectators will gather to watch Olympic sailors vie for medals, had the super bacteria in 90 percent of samples. Ten percent of Copacabana's samples had the microbes.
Ipanema and Leblon beaches, the most popular with tourists, had samples that tested positive for super bacteria 50 and 60 percent of the time, respectively.
The Oswaldo Cruz study of the Olympic lagoon, which was peer reviewed, is based on water samples taken in 2013. It found that the lake is a potential breeding ground for super bacteria and their spread through the city.
While the studies both use water samples that are from 2013 and 2014, Picao and other experts said they had seen no advances in sewerage infrastructure in Rio to improve the situation.
Valerie Harwood, an expert in recreational water contamination and antibiotic-resistant bacteria at the University of South Florida who was not involved in the studies, said that if anything, things were getting worse, as the super bacteria naturally spread by infecting other microbes.
The contamination has prompted federal police and prosecutors to investigate whether Rio's water utility Cedae is committing environmental crimes by lying about how much sewage it treats. Investigators are also looking into where billions of dollars in funds went since the early 1990s, money earmarked to improve sewage services and clean Guanabara Bay.
Cedae has denied any wrongdoing. It said in an emailed statement that any super bacteria found at the beaches or the Olympic lagoon must be the result of illegal dumping into storm drains. Cedae said it carries out sewage treatment and collection in the entire "south zone" of Rio, where the bodies of water are located and where the water samples were taken.
'LIKE CANDY'
Five scientists consulted by Reuters said the immediate risk to people's health when faced with super bacteria infection depends on the state of their immune systems.
These bacteria are opportunistic microbes that can enter the body, lie dormant, then attack at a later date when a healthy person may fall ill for another reason.
Super bacteria infect not only humans but also otherwise-harmless bacteria present in the waters, turning them into antibiotic-resistant germs.
Harwood said the super bacteria genes discovered in the Olympic lagoon were probably not harmful if swallowed by themselves: they need to be cocooned inside of a bacterium.
"Those genes are like candy. They are organic molecules and they'll be eaten up by other bacteria, other organisms," Harwood said. "That's where the danger is - if a person then ingests that infected organism - because it will make it through their gastrointestinal tract and potentially make someone ill."
The presence of the super bacteria genes in the lagoon indicates the bacteria themselves had recently died or simply were not detected by testing, Harwood said.
Health experts say Rio's poor wastewater management has already created endemic illnesses associated with sewage that disproportionately impact the city's poor, including gastrointestinal and respiratory problems, Hepatitis A and severe heart and brain conditions.
Rio's Olympic organizing committee referred questions on water quality to state authorities.
Rio state's Inea environmental agency said in an emailed statement it follows the World Health Organization's recommendations for testing recreational water safety, and that searching for super bacteria is not included in that. It also said there was a lack of studies about the bacteria in water and health outcomes.

A Puritan Christmas under Cromwell
by Jessica Brain
The Interregnum, the word used to describe the period marking the republican government of England was an eventful and momentous time to be alive but what do we know about what life was really like during this time?
The period began with the execution of Charles I in January 1649, ushering in a Commonwealth period in English politics with Oliver Cromwell at the helm.
The English Civil War had divided communities between those who supported traditional monarchy and those who supported the parliamentarians. In the end, Cromwell and his forces managed to suppress any last ditch efforts to overthrow the growing tide of republican support and Charles I's son was subsequently forced into exile on the continent.
The eleven years that followed would mark the beginning of not only a political experiment which embraced republicanism and shunned traditional English forms of governance, but also, a social, cultural and religious experiment which recalibrated expectations and reinforced Puritan values. The result of which would have enormous ramifications on some of our best loved traditions, none more so than the celebration of Christmas!
With the advent of parliamentary victory in the English civil war, the catharsis that was achieved following such a win was the enforcement of more Puritan dominated views which emphasised the value of living a simple life free from the indulgence associated with Charles I's reign. As part of this newly advocated lifestyle, dates on the social and cultural calendar of medieval England were suppressed as Christmas and Easter were first on the list for a Puritanical purge.
In medieval England Christmas had been an important part of the year, much like it is today!
The combination of religious observance, the attendance of Church and traditions of decoration within the home were all part and parcel of the festivities. 25th December was a holy day in which the birth of Jesus was commemorated and as such, celebrations would last until the 5th January with the Twelfth Night marking the coming of the Epiphany.
Christmas was a time of the year where merriment and celebrations brought communities together in church services, tavern knees-ups and big family and friend celebrations. The home was adorned with traditional decorations consisting of holly, ivy and mistletoe and festive food for those who could afford it included favourites such as turkey, mince pies and yummy puddings.
A selection of Christmas food
Whilst the level of celebrations varied depending on your budget, Christmas Day was a public holiday whereby, whether you lived in an isolated village community or in the centre of the hustle and bustle of London, special food and drink, merriment and gatherings unrestricted by usual rules for the rest of the year were the order of the day.
Whilst businesses closed early, communal festive celebrations might include the precursor to the modern pantomime, staged to entertain the family. Moreover, in an ambiance of medieval jubilance, singing was high on the agenda. Unfortunately, in the Interregnum period, all this was about to come to an end.
The austerity propagated during this period was in direct contrast to the indulgences associated with the festive time of year. Not only were Christmas and Easter in the firing line, but also a range of other cultural aspects of medieval society including theatre. A new era of social interaction was being hastily introduced with the celebration of Christmas on the 25th December banned.
Such a direct attack on the religious holiday had been brewing for some time; even before the outbreak of the Civil War, the Long Parliament had begun to chip away at the festive celebrations. By the time Charles I was overthrown, the dominance of certain values made way for draconian religious legislation.
The new parliamentary platform created during this period gave a stronger voice to strict Puritans who wanted to enforce their ideals through the legal network. There had already been a growing discontent about the perceived frivolousness of celebrations and the way in which this religious festival was being celebrated long before the Interregnum.
A Puritan family at dinner, woodcut, 17th century
One such figure who had strong views on this matter included the pamphleteer Philip Stubbs who produced "The Anatomie of Abuses" which castigated many established cultural traditions such as theatre, fashion and the consumption of alcohol. For those like Stubbs, the introduction of a new Directory for Public Worship in January 1645 was well-received as a framework for introducing strict religious observance based on Puritanical values.
Christmas Day was thus forbidden, alongside the prohibition of everything that came with it, including the yuletide joy of singing. For the Commonwealth, the roots of celebrating Christmas were linked to "popish" origins with Roman Catholicism still viewed with a keen sense of resentment, bitterness and paranoia at the time. Catholicism and all aspects of idolatry associated with the faith were viewed with suspicion and the Puritans within parliament argued strongly in favour of the abolition of such festivities which had been fashioned by several centuries of Catholic tradition.
In 1644, these strict ideas were put into practice by an Act of Parliament which banned the festivities and then three years later, the Long Parliament went further in confirming the abolition of the Christmas Feast. Meanwhile, the tradition of singing at Christmas was now viewed as more of a political act than as a form of celebration.
Whilst strict adherence to these laws was expected, it did not prove enough to suppress the festivities of men and women across the country. They would not be silenced by this religious diktat, rather they were forced to carry out their celebrations in a clandestine manner, marked by secret singing and services. Carol singing whilst legally silenced still echoed underground, such was the will and desire to observe centuries of happy tradition.
By 1656 even stricter measures were introduced to curb the flouting of rules, even going so far as to have soldiers patrolling the streets of London to ensure no-one was buying food traditionally associated with the Christmas feast. Whilst Sunday was seen as a holy day, Christmas by contrast was supposed to function much like any other, with shops and marketplaces being told to remain open.
Much legislation was passed during the Interregnum as a means to encourage the general public to fall in line with Puritan ideals and reject traditions which were steeped in Catholic forms of worship and religious observance. Through draconian measures of enforced austerity, the abolition of singing, feasts and nativities continued until the Restoration of 1660.
With all forms of celebration associated with Christmas banned, this Puritan inspired prohibition did not win the popular vote of the general public and incited pro-Christmas riots and blatant flouting of the rules leading to confrontations in a number of cities including Canterbury, London and Norwich.
Cromwell, the figure most synonymous with this period, was in power for much of the time these values were forced on the public. Whilst such strict cultural legislation is often directly associated with him personally, it was not in fact he who had initiated the ban, rather the Commonwealth parliament which had seen fit to invoke such widespread prohibition. If anything, Cromwell proved to be somewhat of a moderate force when it came to the abolition of Christmas; nevertheless, in his role as Lord Protector from 1653 onwards, he presided over these measures which actively tried to alter the cultural and social interactions of the public.
Despite the best efforts of the Puritanical elements of the republic, the will of the English people to celebrate could not be suppressed and by 1660, with the future of the Commonwealth looking more fragile by the second, these austere values no longer found a place in English society.
The severity of the period was now void and Christmas once more triumphed in the face of suppression. Celebration could now be observed freely and Christmas carols, many of which we continue to sing today were sung with glee.
This was not only a triumph for Christmas and all the festive joy it brings, but also a triumph for celebration, culture, tradition and community.

Breast reconstruction by Autologous Fat Transfer has been performed for many years, usually by moving fat from the back or abdomen into the breast. The fat is transferred on a "pedicle" consisting of an artery and veins so that the fat maintains a blood supply in the new position. This is a complex and relatively time consuming surgical procedure with a high complication rate.
Breast reconstruction can also be performed by inserting an artificial implant into the space occupied by the breast or under the pectoral muscle. Although a simpler procedure, it is not unusual to have complications related to the implant such as rippling or capsule contracture resulting in the breast feeling hard and unnatural.
Breast reconstruction by Autologous Fat Transfer is an entirely different approach, which is based on our breast augmentation by Autologous Fat Transfer procedure. It can be used after a partial or segmental mastectomy to fill in the defect caused by excision of part of the breast.
It is very useful when used around a breast implant to conceal rippling and to make the breast feel generally softer. It can also be used as a sole method of breast reconstruction. In this technique your own purified fat is grafted into the thin layer of fat that remains under your breast skin.
Because every woman's requirements are different, we would welcome the opportunity to discuss the way in which Autologous Fat Transfer could be of benefit to you.


CALGARY – Former U.S. secretary of state Hillary Clinton says whatever the decision on the proposed Keystone XL pipeline, it's important that Canada and the United States retain a good working relationship.
"I think it's important not to let whatever that decision is on one pipeline colour the potential for co-operation … between the United States and Canada on energy production and climate change," Clinton told about 2,500 business leaders at a private event in Calgary on Thursday.
She offered little assurance to the oil and natural gas sector about approval for the proposed pipeline.
The $5.4-billion pipeline would carry bitumen from the oilsands in northern Alberta to refineries along the Texas Gulf Coast. The project has been in limbo for more than five years and has become a symbol of the political debate over climate change.
"What pipeline?" Clinton joked during a question-and-answer period with former New Brunswick premier Frank McKenna following the speech.
"This is a pipeline that crosses our international border and so falls under the perview of the State Department," she said.
"During the four years I was the secretary, there was a very comprehensive process that took into account many different factors, including some of the concerns … (such as) pipeline capacity as well as jobs. I can't comment any further than that.
Kerry is leading a regulatory review of Calgary-based TransCanada Corp.'s (TSX:TRP) pipeline proposal and is accepting public comments, including a letter of support from the Canadian government.


A lovely bra, very gentle colours. Most Freyas in this cut fit me well, so a good fit is no surprise. I need to be on my skinny days to achieve a great fit though.
This bra is so close! I the cup depth/wire width is perfect. The band is a bit stretchy (as normal for freya). I love the adorable polka dotted bow in the center. It's my favorite thing about the bra. It's so so so cute! Unfortunately, this bra doesn't fit because the gore is too wide for me. It sits on breast tissue and is generally just terribly painful. I'm considering altering it, but I should probably just rehome this one.


Too often boxing and the training associated with it is presented as threatening, making it unappealing to many women. But a burgeoning number of 'women that punch' are putting on the gloves for a the best workout ever!
Boxers need to be agile and light on their feet therefore are constantly moving and prepared to react to their rival.
This constant movement keeps your heart rate high which is great for fat burning. Mixt it with the powerful and fast moves of the upper body and the heart rate increases, devouring even more calories.
After 1 hour cession you will have burnt up to 600 calories!
But the advantages of boxing don't obviously stop here… It allows you to build more confidence (you finally can express what the societal norms prohibit).
So why not trying one of our classes?

Our Move Along, Nothing-To-See-Here Media
The overt and extraordinary bias and partisanship on the part of far too many leaders and the media that support them has led to a form of moral blindness that has warped values.
In the comedy movie series, "Naked Gun," an alien flying saucer lands in New York's Time Square. Beautiful aliens emerge. Leslie Nielsen, who plays the role of a bumbling detective, stands in front of the spacecraft and tells amazed bystanders, "Move along, nothing to see here."
That phrase could well be the motto of our era.
Much of the world has turned a blind eye to terrible assaults on human rights, particularly barbaric attacks on Christians. Open Doors recently published its World Watch 2020 report, detailing the massive international persecution that religious group currently endures. According to the data presented, 260 million Christians worldwide suffer high levels of persecution in at least 50 nations. The Beijing regime uses sophisticated technology to catch and convict what the Communist regime terms the "illegal spread of Christianity." In Burkina Faso, Christians are fighting for their very survival. Dozens of priests have been killed. Protestant ministers face not only dire threats to themselves, but to their families as well. Open Doors notes that, "In Sri Lanka, 250 people died and more than 500 were injured in attacks on Catholic and Protestant churches and hotels on [an] Easter Sunday. In Pakistan, radical Islamist groups have used so-called "blasphemy laws" to imprison Christians. Due to relentless persecution, Christianity is on the verge of completely vanishing from portions of the Middle East."
While the chattering classes vocally condemn the concentration camps that darkened Europe in the 1940s, there is only minimal condemnation of the 21st Century version of those nightmare establishments, those existing in China set up for the specific purpose of wiping out the Uyghur people and culture.
Over the past dozen years or so, we have been advised by Washington power brokers and media barons to ignore astounding violations of the Constitution, the law, and common decency. In affairs both foreign and domestic, on the streets of our cities, in the playing fields of our stadiums, in the boardrooms of corporations, in the courtrooms of our judicial system and most prominently in the halls of government, acts which are a clear affront to American values, traditions and statutes have been shrouded by government obfuscation, and censorship of facts self-imposed by deeply partisan news organizations.
When the Obama Administration's FCC representatives attempted to place federal monitors in newsrooms, the move, (fortunately defeated) didn't get the level of aggressive response it truly warranted. When that same White House used the Department of Justice and the Internal Revenue Service to harass organizations that differed from the President, no one was punished. When Senate Minority Leader Charles "Chuck" Schumer introduced legislation to remove First Amendment protections from paid political speech, much of the media and academia were stone quiet.
After losing the White House in 2016, a totally false narrative of "Russian collusion" was concocted to cripple the incoming Administration. Despite clear repudiation of that charge after years of intensive investigation, the perpetuators of the plot went completely unpunished.
As President Trump began to put his legitimate stamp on U.S. policy, illicit means to deny him his constitutional authority took shape. Courts on several levels, particularly the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, issued rulings in areas over which they had no Constitutional authority in an effort to stop the lawful exercise of Executive Branch power. Most Lawyers' associations and legal academic institutions and journals chose to side with these judicial usurpers.
Now, we are told that while there were some irregularities in the 2020 presidential election, it's not enough to change the outcome or to be concerned about.
Move along, there's nothing to see here.

Can anyone ID this medal for me?
Google Romanian Medal of Maritime Virtue and then click images.
Looks great! Can we see the whole spange?
I do not own this medal bar at this time. If I get it then I will post detailed photos for you.
Kingdom of Romania: Medal for Military Virture, instituted 13 November 1926. This is the Type 1 (1926-1940) Class 2: Silver Medal with crown described as a civil award for 'navigating personnel'.
Megan why does it say Pentru Marina.which refers to Maritime rather than Military which I thought was another medal?
'Pentru Marina' literally means 'For the Navy'.
This is the Maritime Medal, established in 1936, later named Medal for Maritime Virtue.
Hello and thank you to everyone who helped me with this new acquisition. I hope you like it as much as I do!

Cities of Light: The Rise and Fall of Islamic Spain takes viewers on an epic journey back into one of the most fascinating and important periods of world history. It tells a story of vital importance for our contemporary world about the triumphs and shortcomings, achievements and ultimate failures of a centuries-long period when Muslims, Christians, and Jews inhabited the same far corner of Western Europe and built a society that lit the Dark Ages.
The lemon tree, the water wheel, and Aristotle's lost philosophy all arrived in Europe through Islamic Spain, as did algebra and the beginnings of modern medicine, science, and poetry. Here were the very roots of the European Renaissance.
All this was the legacy of a diverse society that managed to create a culture of light in a time of general darkness and ignorance in Europe. Cities of Light shows how it was possible for Muslims, Christians, and Jews to co-exist and thrive together—and yet how fragile that union can be when religious extremism begins to rise. The glories of Islamic Spain are beautifully rendered, but the film does not flinch when vividly portraying the violence and horror that ultimately engulfed it—violence that seems similar to what we witness today.
The world is at a crossroads. Exploring the vibrant history of Islamic Spain could not be more important as we confront the profound political, strategic, and ethical challenges that will determine issues of war and peace for generations to come.
The history of Islamic Spain demonstrates that when religious diversity is accommodated within a social and political system, problems and tensions may still exist, but society is able to successfully manage them, generally to the benefit of all. But when a power system or religious movement rejects complexity and insists on a single cultural and religiously-centered point of view, then society is likely to come to grief with everyone losing something.

Over at Daily Kos, Zwoof has seen a rash of chain emails about "welfare junkies" who are "drug-fueled slackers." Obligingly, Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC) has introduced the Welfare Reform Act of 2011 to discipline deadbeats on food stamps.
This is old news. It is Ronald Reagan's "welfare [...]

The Cain Episode Reminds Us – Republicans Play A Different Game.
By James Boyce On November 1, 2011
But there is one thought I would add to the debate over the issue and the coverage of the issue. The Republicans flat out play a different game. And, as a Democrat who has worked on two Presidential Campaigns, here's why it matters.
Now We Can All Welcome Them Home
By James Boyce On October 26, 2011
When President Obama re-affirmed his commitment to have all the troops out of Iraq by the end of 2011, my thoughts went to two different groups of veterans and one remarkable project I was recently introduced to.
Occupying My Thoughts
The power of the Occupy movement will not be seen now; just as the power of the ON MAY 12th wasn't seen on May 13th. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, according to Lao Tzu. The steps are starting to add up. The journey has begun. Hold on, it could get a little crazy out there.
Another Journalist Revels in Ignorance about Dominionism
By Frederick Clarkson On September 20, 2011
In recent weeks, we have seen an odd flurry of articles and conservative op-ed columns attacking a number of authors and journalists who write about the Christian Right. Religion writer Mark I. Pinsky has issued the latest scurrilous screed, this time in USA Today. It is remarkable that so much prime [...]

Analystas are rushing in from all sides to examine the causes of the UK riots. Are they about politics and economics? Or is it merely an opportunity for thugs to steal stuff? All we know for sure is that it's anarchy in the UK and that Saturday's opening day [...]
Romney's Mysterious Million Dollar Donor
By Diane Sweet On August 4, 2011
Mitt Romney has been kicking ass on the campaign fundraising trail, leaving his GOP rivals in the dust raising $15-20 million through June 30, 2011:
"Obviously, Romney has leveraged his standing in the polls to raise early money in the race," said Tobe Berkovitz, a professor at Boston University's College of Communication. [...]
ALEC Has Theirs. Now They Want Yours.
By Tom Sullivan On July 17, 2011
The massive amounts of money America's rich spend to keep from paying taxes seems as irrational as it is obsessively ideological. There's something creepily cultish about it. This week's massive leak of corporate-written model legislation from the Koch brothers-financed American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) has further exposed the depth and breadth of the [...]

LoJ: #464 (Pre-LiDAR: #) "Ellingwood Ridge" Formerly UN 13206 - Map
Sawatch Range / Top 500 / Class 2+
"Ellingwood Ridge" ("Formerly UN 13206 - Map")
Quadrangle › La Plata
Neighboring Peaks › La Plata Peak
Previously identified on the USGS map as a point of 13,206 ft., then re-estimated to be 13,220 ft., and finally pegged at 13,222 ft. by Lidar, this high point of Ellingwood ridge has now been promoted in 2022 to ranked status with 305 feet of prominence. Primary access is by the La Plata Peak trail and then venturing off into trail-less terrain with a long, steep slug up a rock-filled couloir and a briefly entertaining, Class 2+ summit scramble. This will be a fairly long day for most, but faster, more capable types can complete in about a half day.

Camping Near Trailhead? No
From Aspen, take CO 82 and drive over and down Independence Pass. From the very last switchback as you drop down to the level of the North Fork of Lake Creek, it's 5.1 miles south and east on Co 82 to the trailhead parking. Space is very limited here. Even on summer weekdays, arrival by 6:00 AM is mandatory.
From where CO 82 intersects US 24. south of Leadville, turn west onto CO 82 driving past the Twin Lakes and continuing for 14.5 miles (from the intersection) to the trailhead parking on the side of CO 82 at the coordinates provided.
Camp spots are available all along CO 82 as it follows the Lake Fork. One of the best and most reliable spots we have found is located 2.25 miles west of the La Plata-Ellingwood TH. This fairly large, primitive camp area sits at the foot of Graham Gulch and a diversion tunnel. Coordinates for the turnoff are: N 39° 04' 54.16" W 106° 32' 13.02". There are also campgrounds along CO 82 closer to Twin lakes. The two closest are Parry Peak and Twin Peaks. Both participate in a reservation system and have standard facilities.

From the trailhead parking along CO 82, hike south on FR391, crossing the recently constructed bridge across the North Fork of Lake Creek and walk SE up the road for about .3 mile to where the road makes a turn to the SSW. At this corner is where the trail for La Plata Peak takes off heading eastward. Parking here is not allowed. N 39° 04' 04.33" W 106° 30' 18.34". Follow the trail to the crossing of the South Fork of Lake Creek on a sturdy, steel bridge, then continuing east to cross the unnamed creek flowing out of La Plata Gulch on logs. Once across, the trail swings out away from the creek a little, but generally heads south, always staying on the east side of the creek and usually staying well above it. Note that the La Plata trail no longer follows the USGS map or the 2016 Forest Service map, which indicates it heads farther east and then turns up the long, forested, northwest ridge of La Plata. Instead, the trail now stays closer to the creek in La Plata Gulch, at times climbing very steeply above the watercourse. Eventually, you'll reach a section where the trail is following close to the stream and things have flattened out some. At these coordinates is where we turned off the trail and began hiking up a steep hillside of open trees and not too much deadfall. N 39° 03' 07.39" W 106° 29' 32.86". 11,025 ft. elevation.
Gain about 800 feet in elevation up this slope to reach the ridge above. Once on the ridge, head for these coordinates at an open and flat meadow. N 39° 03' 04.19" W 106° 29' 09.63". Ellingwood Ridge and the high point will be visible from here. Continue in an eastward direction at the level of the meadow at 11,800 ft. There's no need to gain any more of the ridge. Instead, you'll be contouring SE over into the next drainage of La Plata Basin. The overall goal is to get to near the last trees in the upper basin. The contour will take you across both open tundra and areas of talus. There is a gradual loss of elevation. Near the last group of trees on the west side of the creek, the stream is choked with willows. Crossing through the willows and crossing the creek at these coordinates will be the easiest place to get through. N 39° 02' 51.36 W 106° 28' 35.36". Elevation here is very close to 11,700 ft. At these coordinates, you'll be at the foot of a steep rock glacier tongue with large boulders. Walk north along the edge of the creek a short distance to gain a grassy slope that heads east and up along the boulders. After the last trees, you should be at the foot of the great couloir that leads to a saddle about 1,200 feet above. About 1/3rd of the way up this couloir, a great rock outcrop splits it. Going up on either side works but there may be less small. loose scree by working the left side. Either way is not easy with plenty of scrambling over boulders of all sizes and gravel/sandy areas. We went up the left side and descended the lower right-hand side later after the summit.
After the long slugfest to the saddle, turn south for the finish on Class 2 terrain of rock blocks and the like for some fun scrambling. Depending on exactly how you work toward the top, there may be one or more Class 2+ or Class 3 moves without any great exposure. The actual summit is an uneventful area of rock blocks. The view of La Plata is outstanding as is also the view of the remainder of Ellingwood Ridge toward La Plata. Once you've enjoyed your summit scenery, descend by retracing your route all the way back to the trailhead. Before making this descent, back at the saddle at the head of the great couloir, you may wish to ascend the other summit point just south of the saddle. This can be easily done by contouring around the east side of the ridge, then working up a shallow gully to the left to regain the ridge crest for the final short distance to this other false summit. There's one short Class 3 move to reach it with no significant exposure. We noted some marginal trail here and a few cairns.

X. The Politics of Multitude (Antonio Negri, Anna Clara Basilicò & Marco Baravallle)
Posted on 30. November 2021 14. January 2022 by brut Koproduktionshaus Wien
Multitude is a "multiplicity of singularities acting together" (Antonio Negri/Michael Hardt), "the many, seen as being many" (Paolo Virno): a network that is neither homogeneous nor self-identical. The concept of the multitude is a counterproposal to the idea of the people, a revolutionary subject that is difficult to grasp or to define – and has been both praised and criticized for this openness. The 10th edition of The Art of Assembly looks at the role of the assembly as a tool and strategy for the multitude to make decisions and to communicate. Political theorist Antonio Negri revisits the concept he – together with Michael Hardt – popularized in the earl 2000s while climate activist Anna Clara Basilicò looks at its potential for current movements.
Can institutions be driving forces of change? Or are they doomed to be bastions of the status quo, capable of slow reforms at best? Arguments about institutions, instituting and institutionalizing are at the core of many progressive movements. But what would it actually mean to imagine institutions in a radical democratic way? How can we understand museums, theatres, galleries, festivals, biennales as assemblies – not only symbolically but by consequently re-negotiating their organizational structures? Curator Ahmed Al-Nawas, focusing in his work on collaborative, anti-racist and de-colonizing practices, takes a close look at the role of authorship and representation within collectives. Nora Sternfeld, art educator and curator, negotiates the possibilities for a radical-democratic museum, imagining a future that is more than the mere extension of the present. And Sarah Waterfeld, spokesperson of the collective Staub zu Glitzer (Dust to Glitter) that occupied 2017 Volksbühne in Berlin with its transmedia theatre production B6112, demands a fundamental rethinking of the way the iconic 'people's theatre' is run.
SARAH WATERFELD / STAUB ZU GLITZER ° Art After All
Posted on 11. October 2021 18. January 2022 by brut Koproduktionshaus Wien
B6112 is an anti-capitalist, queer-feminist, anti-racist, transmedial theatre production by the artist collective Staub zu Glitzer (dust to glitter). It was established on September 22nd 2017 with the occupation of the Volksbühne am Rosa-Luxemburg-Platz in Berlin and is not over yet. With and within this artwork, specific demands are made on theatres as institutions: overcoming bourgeois exclusivity, the radical opening of space for a self-organization process and the collective, participatory development of a new city- or state theatre model. It is not enough to designate a small group of people as collective directorships and to appoint them to managerial positions. In addition to egalitarian wage policies, there has to be a fundamental discussion about who is entitled to a theatre stage and who the final decision maker should be in this respect. Berlin's free space and project-room culture is dying out and one approach is to demand tax-financed institutions for self-organization, although and precisely because this does not correspond to the self-image of these elitist cultural areas. As a place founded by organized workers, the Volksbühne should play a pioneering role in the discourse of participation, anarchist organization, and anti-fascist engagement.
The assemblies of the numerous square occupations during the last decade have often been laboratories of radical forms of democracy, experimenting with non-hierarchical structures and consensus models instead of majority voting. While watching these movements with sympathy, political theorist Chantal Mouffe emphasises also the necessity of dissensus, of an agonistic pluralism in which adversaries openly fight for their hegemonic projects. Philosopher and sociologist Didier Eribon reflects on the conditions and the limits of such mobilisations and insists on the unsurpassable plurality of movements like the gilets jaunes in France, or more recently, the massive strikes and protests against the demolition of the public sector, as well as the demonstrations against racism etc. In the 7th edition of "The Art of Assembly" Eribon and Mouffe discuss how much agonism social movements can bare and how the diversity of democratic demands should be addressed.
MAX HAIVEN ° The Ghosts of Occupy. Notes on a Haunted Decade, in the Spirit of David Graeber?
Posted on 9. September 2021 18. January 2022 by brut Koproduktionshaus Wien
Taking up David Graeber's theorization of Occupy as a movement not simply for political change but for a different kind of politics, Max Haiven presents these afterlives of Occupy as indicative of our political-economic moment where both power and resistance are reconfiguring themselves.
JUDITH BUTLER ° Where are We Now? Assembly, Care, and Connection
presumed access to shared space. And yet, there have been ways to occupy public space that accept the safety protocols for Covid-19. How then do we think about "safety" in relation to assembly? We speak about the right of peaceable assembly, but do we speak as often about safe conditions for assembly? The idea of safety brings up ambivalent viewpoints, and it became a key topic of debate for the Occupy movement and for the uprisings of the Arab Spring. "To play it safe" means not taking risks, not asking for too much, so what role, if any, does danger now play? If we think that heroic forms of risking our lives is part of a political struggle, what happens when the risk that I take is immediately a risk to you as well? Where does an ethics of care enter into our politics of assembly?

VI: Assembling More Than Humans (Radha D'Souza & Sibylle Peters & Florian Malzacher)
Posted on 22. June 2021 14. January 2022 by brut Koproduktionshaus Wien
Discussions about representation in assemblies, democracies and legal cases are usually reserved to human beings. But recent discussions around the Anthropocene and new materialism have fiercely challenged such anthropocentric limitations. Professor for Law Radha D'Souza argues that the concept of rights is fundamentally flawed as it is always associated with private property, contracts, and contractual social relations. Drawing on insights from indigenous cultures and everyday practices, she points out the centrality of assembly for collective life among animals and humans. Performance maker and theorist Sibylle Peters deals in her practice as theorist and theatre maker since many years with concepts of assembling – recently also trying to create zones of companionship in which humans and other co-species can come together without food chains or zoo cages getting in-between.
In 2019 Sibylle Peters devised a project called Animals of Manchester (including humanz) for which she tried to install a zone of interspecies equality in a park. Live artists, animal rights activists, researchers, kids and a number of species present in Manchester worked together to imagine and rehearse an alternative version of the city: How would it look like, if all species – including humanz – had the same rights?

Q: PDF manipulation with placeholders I am looking for a Java tool that can manipulate an existing PDF containing placeholders like ${foo}. I want to generate mail merge documents from that.
I found a lot of solutions with forms but this seems not suitable for me. Currently I generate the PDF with iText but this is a really annoying task to convert existing Word files or similar. I didn't find another solution with iText so far.
I also used JODReports in conjunction with JODConverter but it is necessary to run OpenOffice as a service and the performance is bad.

The C. Henry Kimball House is an historic house at 295 Washington Avenue in Chelsea, Massachusetts. The -story wood-frame house was built c. 1896, and is one of the city's finest Queen Anne Victorian houses. It was built by Charles Henry Kimball, an innovative businessman who developed heated vehicles, revolutionizing the transport of potatoes. He was also a major figure in the development of Chelsea's wholesale fruit and produce exchange.

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
