Schalit joins Pollard campaign for Peres action

Gilad, parents join 1000s signing petition that president should use medal of freedom to press Obama over jailed Israeli spy.
Former captive IDF soldier Gilad Schalit and his parents Noam and Aviva joined a petition drive Thursday that is aimed at pressuring President Shimon Peres to take action to bring about the release of Israeli agent Jonathan Pollard.
The petition, which has been signed by nearly 30,000 people, calls upon Peres to persuade US President Barack Obama to commute Pollard's life sentence before Obama gives Peres the Presidential Medal of Freedom in June.
Gilad Schalit signed the petition at the request of singer Ruhama Raz, who was active in the movement to bring about his release and now has become active in the Free Pollard campaign.
Noam Schalit told Raz that in a future press conference, his son would come out strongly in favor of releasing Pollard. Noam Schalit first made a statement on Pollard's behalf in February 2011 when he and Aviva were living in a tent outside the prime minister's residence.
Peres will meet on Sunday with the heads of the Knesset caucus for Pollard, Uri Ariel (National Union) and Ronit Tirosh (Kadima), who will deliver him a separate petition containing the signatures of 80 MK which they want Peres to deliver to Obama when he travels to the US
Ariel held a mock Passover Seder outside the Prime Minister's Office on Thursday with an empty chair for Pollard. Ariel was going to hold the protest Seder outside the president's residence, but he moved it when Peres agreed to meet with him.
Peres will meet with Ariel and Tirosh following his traditional visits to Shas mentor and former Sephardi Chief Rabbi Ovadia Yosef, Ashkenazi Chief Rabbi Yona Metzger and Sephardi Chief Rabbi Shlomo Amar to personally greet them on the Festival of Freedom.
Peres's office has been working in coordination with the Committee to Free Pollard with the aim of maximizing the effort to secure his release. Committee members have met with the top echelons in the President's office to map out a joint strategy that will result in Peres returning from the US together with Pollard.
The committee welcomed Gilad Schalit's signing the signature and expressed hope that "if Peres puts his full weight on the issue, there will be results soon."
Obama announced last month at the American Israel Public Affairs Committee Policy Conference that he would give Peres the medal. Peres's office said he had discussed Pollard's fate with Obama when they met in Washington ahead of the conference.
"As president, I see it as very important to work determinedly to bring about Jonathan Pollard's release," Peres said "We are all united in the call to release him immediately. In all my meetings with president Obama and top American government leaders I raised the request to release Pollard and I will continue to do so when I meet with Obama in June."

The Death of Beth
July 21, 2016 Alma Alexander
Over the mumble years since I first read "Little Women" as a girl, I have taken more than one quiz about which character I wanted to be, or was most like.
Of course, I always came out as Jo.
Because…well seriously, Jo is the only "real" one out there.
These reflections come in response to an essay by Stephanie Foote, The Thing About Beth ("Little Beth, loved by everyone: Except me"), in the LA Review of Books.
Amy was Vanity, Meg was Poisonously Good (with just that faint little dash of spirit in the end, but that got scotched pretty fast and she remained the Good Girl who Did What She Ought To). And Beth is a gentle ghost.
And not one that haunts, either. She wafts through the story, and then she's gone. Perhaps it's that she didn't have TIME to do anything. She was just Sister #4 from central casting, the one destined for the weepy let's-go-the-violins death scene which would serve to "strengthen" (in the virtuous "what doesn't kill me makes me stronger " sense) everyone else.
This was a book I read when i was quite young, living in a very different world, and to me, the background and the setting of it was as incomprehensible as it would have been if it had been set on Mars. But I devoured it, and I fell in love with Jo, like everyone did. I felt betrayed when Laurie went and picked up silly flappy little Amy instead.
Yes, I cried when Beth died, but it really was a sad set-scene. I don't think I wept because I had felt any kind of warmth or a kinship with poor little Beth. I wept because I was supposed to weep at that point, for that character. And everyone dutifully did.
I suspect that I would less susceptible to that if I read the book now. And yes, i suspect I would respond far more viscerally to the things that Beth left behind. So much of that character lives in "her things": Too much. Not nearly enough of it lived in the girl herself…

10 Annoying Literary Terms
You might not know it, Gelgud writes, but you have probably put a prolepsis into play recently.
"Did you know that a signature isn't necessarily a scribbled name on a credit card receipt? You know that classic character that Gilda Radner played on "Saturday Night Live" who'd confuse "violence" with "violins"? Do you know what kind of mistake that is? You probably know what a climax is, and maybe even how to pronounce denouement, but do you know what part of a plot makes up the anagnorisis?"

In the New York Times, Annie Correal writes about
For about four decades, applicants wanting to work at the Strand, the undisputed king of New York City's independent bookstores, have confronted a final hurdle, the literary matching quiz.
There are tests for driver's licenses and citizenship, for New York City landmarks preservationists and sanitation workers. But a quiz for an entry-level retail job at a bookstore?
Fred Bass, 88,created the literary quiz in the 1970s. Credit George Etheredge
Bass, who owns the Strand along with his daughter, created the literary quiz in the 1970s. He had selected masterworks to appear on the quiz,
"And then I did a sneaky thing. I made one not match. 'Gone With the Wind,' and no Mitchell," he said
BTW, I took the quiz and got 40 out of 50 right. My husband refuses to tell me how well he did. [I always beat him at Scrabble, too. 🙂 ]

New Pokémon Game Takes Bookstores By Storm

Booksellers are always looking for new ways to attract more customers to their stores, but it's doubtful that many thought that Pokémon would be the answer. The sudden popularity of the smartphone video game Pokémon Go is driving people into bookstores and, in some cases, driving up sales.
The nature of the game is proving a boon for foot traffic at some bookstores, like Wild Detectives Bookstore in Dallas. "It's crazy," said Sam Villavert, a barista at the store.

Weeds in their native, sun-drenched habitats of the world, most herbs actually grow quite well outdoors in Canada, much to the surprise of uninitiates and to recent immigrants from those lands.
Of course, with the Canadian phenomenon of snow, ice and the like, many of these herbs are forced to retreat indoors over winter. If there is a relatively little culture shock in adjusting to our summers, there is relatively more in bringing these herbal treasures indoors. The main problem is the lack of light. But despite lighting conditions often less than one tenth the intensity and duration of the outdoors, herbs can be grown indoors successfully year round and many herb enthusiasts in Toronto do so.
Most herbs will grow well in any east, south or west window that receives at least four hours of direct sunshine a day. Artificial grow-lights are useful to supplement natural light (say in a north-facing window) but they by themselves do not provide enough light of grow herbs with enough vigor to satisfy a cook's demands.
A simple growing system that works well for most of the popular herbs is the windowsill planter box method. The planter box may be plastic or wooden, approximately 15 centimetres wide, 15 centimetres deep, and 1 metre long (6 by 6 inches by 3 feet) and should fit the intended window so that the plants are as close as possible to the available light. Pieces of charcoal broken into 1-centimeter (1/2 inch) pieces are placed in a 2 centimetre (1 inch) layer at the bottom. Charcoal tends to prevent the soil from going sour, especially if there are not drain holes in the planter. On top of the charcoal is placed 5 centimetres (2 inches) of sterilized potting soil. Herbs potted in plastic or clay pots are then placed firmly on this soil layer and then more soil is packed down in the space between the post and the walls of the box. Do not remove the pots; plant pot and all. About six herbs will fit in a 1-metre long box, leaving space between each pot. The soil level should be slightly lower than the rim of the pots, which in turn should be about 1 centimetre (1/2 inch) below the rim of the box.
This simple planting system has several important features. First, individual herbs can be removed, repotted or replaced, as necessary, without disturbing the rest of the herbs in the planter. Second, the extra soil around the pots allows the roots to penetrate new soil when they otherwise would have exhausted the soil of a stand-alone pot. Third, with careful watering, the herbs will be happy even if you decide not to punch holes in the planter box for fear of water dripping over furniture and floors. On the third point, however, it is always better to have holes on the bottom and allow the water to drain out of the planter.
This system works well with most of the herbs listed below. With minimum care, a planter will flourish for a year or two, before needing a complete overhaul. If the potting soil used is a good compost mix with well-rotted manure mixed in, then little fertilizer will be necessary. A liquid fertilizer high in nitrogen (the first number in the analysis) can be applied every four to six months if hunger signs (yellowing) develop.
During the summer you will notice faster and healthier growth if you move the planter outdoors. If you do, expose the herbs gradually over several weeks to the stronger light to allow them time to adjust. You will also need to water more often. When you bring the plants back in the fall, you will again need to adjust the plants to the changed light condition. This time, expose them gradually to the lower light.
Contrary to popular belief, herbs are susceptible to pests despite their natural biochemical arsenal. This is especially true (for reasons not yet fully understood) when herbs are grown indoors. A good practice is to check for whiteflies, spider mites, etc. regularly and apply an insecticidal soap if necessary.
Basil: The lord of pesto and everything tomato actually comes in more than a dozen varieties with varying size, colour and scent. Among the more exotic are the anise, lemon and cinnamon scented strains, but most Torontonian herb lovers are already married to that known as "sweet basil" in either the diminutive Italian bush or regular large leaf forms. Bush basil has a lovely dwarf, compact habit well suited for pot culture. Most varieties will grow quite happily indoors, but as annuals, they wear out after four to six months and need to be replaced. Starts easily from seeds or available in plants form.
Chives: Welcome inhabitants of kitchen gardens, these, the most delicate members of the onion family, offer great improvement to salads, soups, vegetables, omelettes and cheese dishes. There are two kinds: the regular onion chives with hollow leaves and mild onion flavour, and the irresistible garlic chives variety with flat leaves. Both are easily started from seeds or available in plant form.
Coriander: Regular coriander (also known as cilantro or Chinese parsley) is best grown from seeds; don't buy plants, unless you are buying the less common Vietnamese coriander, which has the same flavour but entirely different (oblong) leaves. Regular coriander must be sown in three or four pots a week apart in rotation in order to ensure a constant supply of fresh leaves. Do not transplant, just snip stems when large enough. Once snipped, they don't grow back, so a new pot must be sown to replace the old one. The Vietnamese variety, on the other hand, regrows continuously from the same pot.
Mints: No green thumbs required here. The mints make few demands, growing happily even in the indirect light of a north facing window. Their only demands are occasional pruning and repotting to control their aggressive habit and to replace exhausted soil. There are dozens of varieties, the most popular of which are the venerable spearmint and peppermint. My favourite for indoor growing is english mint because it has sturdy compact growth habit and a versatile flavour. Do not try to start mints from seeds because the result will have little culinary value.
Oregano: There are many kinds of oregano, good and bad; buy only plants whose leaves burst out with he familiar oregano odour when squeezed. Can also be grown from seeds, but it is difficult to know what you are getting because some seed companies sell strains almost completely lacking in flavour and odor. Greek oregano is highly recommended.
Parsley: Fresh parsley is so widely available in markets year round that it could be omitted from the indoor herb garden. It never seems to thrive in pots as well as it does outdoors anyway. However, outdoor-grown plants can be dug up and potted in large pots or tubs in autumn for an extended season indoors. If undamaged in the digging process, the large tap root usually has enough food stored to carry the plant for several months. The familiar curled leaf is popular for flavouring and garnishing, but those in the know prefer the flat-leaf Italian variety, which is stronger in flavour. Start from seeds or purchase plants.
Rosemary: Fresh rosemary has many unexpected used in the kitchen. Rosemary is best acquired in plant form as the seeds are slow to germinate. Give rosemary your brightest window.
Tarragon: Its distinctive anise or licorice-like flavour is deeply satisfying to the palate. Since only the fresh leaves possess flavour, it is essential to establish one's own fresh supply. Buy only true French tarragon plants after applying the squeeze-and-smell test. Indoors, tarragon will succeed in a bright window for most of the year; however, it can languish during the winter months unless it gets a cold treatment.
Thyme: The culinary thymes (as distinct from the ornamental thymes) come in several forms, including three common English and French varieties, an attractive silver form, and the lemon, caraway and nutmeg-scented thymes. English and French can be grown from seeds or plants purchased. The others are available in plant form only.

UN kicks off major climate change effort
UNITED NATIONS, United States (AFP) - UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres calls it the defining issue of our time: climate change is moving to the center stage at the United Nations, three years after the Paris agreement went into force.
A major UN push for progress on climate change kicks off next week when Guterres travels to New Zealand and several Pacific islands, where rising sea levels are threatening the very existence of those small countries.
The stepped-up diplomacy will culminate with a climate action summit at the United Nations in September, an event billed as a last chance to prevent irreversible climate change.
"We are still losing the battle," Guterres told reporters last week. "Climate change is still running faster than we are, and if we don't reverse this trend, it will be a tragedy for the whole world."
In Fiji, Tuvalu and Vanuatu, Guterres will meet with families whose lives have been upended by cyclones, flooding and other extreme weather events.
Pacific island countries face an especially dire risk from climate change because of sea level rise. In some cases, low-lying countries could disappear completely.
Fiji is working to build a coalition of more than 90 countries from the Caribbean, Africa and Asia facing climate crisis.
"We hope that the secretary-general will draw far more inspiration from his first visit to go further, faster and deeper with the climate summit," Fiji's UN Ambassador Satyendra Prasad told AFP.
"We are very hopeful that the climate summit will mark a turning point."
China: climate power
The UN push on climate change is shaping up amid geopolitical shifts: the United States under Donald Trump has decided to pull out of the Paris agreement to combat global warming, giving China more space to assert its views.
"The Trump administration's disdain for climate diplomacy has left China looking like the main guarantor of the Paris agreement," said Richard Gowan, UN director for the International Crisis Group.
"While China is increasingly active across the UN, other states are suspicious of its stances on human rights and development. But it is the indispensable power in climate talks now."
Trump announced in 2017 that the United States would exit the Paris agreement, but under the terms of the deal the withdrawal will only become effective in 2020.
The US administration is not taking part in summit preparations but has not said it will skip the event, according to UN officials.
Guterres' mission may also be further complicated by Trump's nomination of Kelly Knight Craft as UN ambassador.
Craft, who is married to a major coal magnate, raised eyebrows for declaring that she believed "both sides" of climate science, indicating she may well be out of sync with the UN on the issue.
Plans, not speeches
Guterres has told leaders to bring plans, not speeches, to the summit to be held in New York on September 23 during the annual gathering of world leaders at the United Nations.
The summit is seen as critical because of US resistance to discuss climate change at other forums including the G7 and G20, and again last week at a meeting of the Arctic Council in Finland.
"What people are looking for is countries to commit to major ambition increases in 2025 and 2030 at the summit or in 2020," said Nick Mabey, head of the E3G climate think tank.
This should include legally binding targets for countries to phase out coal, become climate neutral and invest in climate resilience, especially for the poorest countries, he added.
A string of apocalyptic reports on the state of the planet is bringing home the need for concrete steps.
One million species are on the brink of extinction. Carbon dioxide emissions continue to rise, pushing targets from the Paris accord further out of reach.
UN climate envoy Luis Alfonso de Alba told AFP on Friday that he was optimistic about prospects for a breakthrough on climate, saying the dire predictions were having a galvanizing effect.
"The situation worldwide is quite different from what it was five to 10 years ago. Five to 10 years ago, countries were looking at their neighbors before acting," he said.
"Today, everybody has full conscience of the urgency to act, and they are not going to wait for their neighbors to act."

Workshop Weekend is a community-based two-day event that brings together dozens of short, hands-on workshops across a variety of disciplines, from crafting to engineering to gardening, all taught by local, passionate instructors with years of experience in their craft.
For my brother and I, our experiences growing up inspired us to create Workshop Weekend. We were lucky to discover a few of our own passions early on in life, and we explored these passions throughout our high school and college years and, later, through our professional lives.
There's no magic to discovering what you're passionate about; if you haven't found it yet, keep exploring. We think everyone, young and old, should have the opportunity to discover that passion, and that belief has driven us to put together Workshop Weekend: It's a way to encourage that exploration of passions.
We hope you'll join us. Share your passion by running a workshop or find a new passion by taking one!

This is Tomorrow Festival Canceled For 2022
CelebrityAccess Staff Writers Contact MePosted on 8 April, 2022, 02:01 PM EDT
NEWCASTLE, UK (CelebrityAccess) — The team behind the This is Tomorrow festival pulled the plug on the event for 2022, citing the ongoing economic crisis and an "oversaturated" festival market.
According to organizers, the event will return in 2023 and has already been announced for the bank holiday weekend of May 26-28.
The cancellation comes less than two months before the festival was scheduled to take place at Newcastle's Exhibition Park and followed noise concerns that prompted the Newcastle City Council to impose new restrictions on events in the space.
According to event organizers, those new noise restrictions presented a challenge but weren't the reason for the events cancellation.
In a statement published on the festival's website, event organizers said:
We are sorry to tell you that we have taken a business decision to not run This Is Tomorrow festival this year.
It's disappointing we know, but we can promise you a seriously strong line up of acts when we come back with a bigger and better event on May 26-28 in 2023.
We appreciate your support in buying early bird tickets for this year but, with an oversaturated market and an ongoing economic crisis, 2022 is not the time for the festival to expand further and build on last year's success.
The recent discussions and restrictions placed on the license for Exhibition Park present a challenge, but this is not the reason we are choosing to have a year off, and we are looking forward to This Is Tomorrow returning to its traditional place in the calendar during the May bank holiday weekend.
Ticketline will be in touch to offer face value refunds for those who do not wish to transfer their tickets to This Is Tomorrow 2023.

November 30, 2017 December 1, 2017 ethanabides
Getting in to see Mr. Bob was surprisingly uncomplicated. That evening, I made my way to the house we had passed through on the previous evening. I wasn't exactly sure how to proceed, so I decided to take the benignly normal approach and knock on the door.
About ten seconds after I knocked, the door was opened by Sherraine. "Come in," she said, to my surprise. Tentatively, I entered the house. "Mr. Bob has been expecting you," she explained as she closed the door. "Come this way."
I followed where she led, and soon we were in the elevator, going down. Neither of us spoke. For my part, I was too busy thinking. Being welcomed into the headquarters of Mr. Bob was the last thing I had expected. As a result, I was completely unprepared for what was happening. I used the time in the elevator to get my bearings and calm down.
The elevator stopped and the door opened into a lobby that I had not seen before. It was lushly appointed and furnished, and I surmised that it was Mr. Bob's true headquarters. At the far end of the room, there was a large set of double doors. In front of them sat a desk complete with receptionist. This particular receptionist was a reptilian humanoid creature of indeterminate gender, but it had a lovely speaking voice.
"Welcome, Mr. Millik," it said, standing up and walking around the desk towards us. The soft lighting glinted off its shiny black and green mottled scales as it moved. The three of us met in the center of the room.
"With your permission," said the receptionist, "I will conduct you to Mr. Bob. May I take your coat? Would you care for some refreshment?"
"No thanks to both," I said, trying not to sound rude. "Let's just go in. If that's okay."
"Of course, sir," said the reptilian receptionist smoothly. "Right this way." I followed it towards the double doors. Sherraine moved to sit in one of the chairs that were tastefully arranged about the room.
The receptionist opened the double doors, each hand pushing a portal inwards. "Mr. Millik to see you, sir," said the receptionist. It stood aside and I entered a room that was jaw-dropping in its urbanity. In the center of the room sat an enormous desk, behind which Mr. Bob had arranged himself.
"Ah, Andrew," said Mr. Bob. "Come in, come in. Have a seat. Cigar?" A large green hand fished a huge cigar from a polished wooden humidor and brandished it in my direction.
I moved into the room warily. I heard the doors click to behind me. Mr. Bob and I were alone in the room. "No thanks," I said. "I don't smoke."
"Neither do I," said Mr. Bob, puffing on an enormous cigar of his own. "Cigars don't count."
By then I had reached the desk, and I stopped in front of it. Mr. Bob looked up at me for a moment, then said, "Well, are you going to sit, or are you going to make me crane my neck the whole time you're here?"
I considered for a moment and decided to opt for politeness. I took a seat in one of the armchairs that were arranged near the desk. "Alright, I'm seated," I said. "Now suppose you tell me what this is about."
Mr. Bob gave a short croak of laughter. "Me tell you? You're the one who came to see me, aren't you?" I was about to make a retort, but Mr. Bob held up his hand. "Easy now, Millik. I think you already know what this is about. You've got business with me, and it just so happens I've got some business with you."
"How did you know I was coming?" I demanded.
Mr. Bob snorted. "Of course I knew you were coming. I'm Mr. Bob."
That, I had to admit, was a fair point. "Alright," I said. "Who's going first?"
"Nice of you to ask," said Mr. Bob, flicking cigar ash into a tray on the desk. "I think I'll go first. Got a proposition for you."
"That's right. I want to offer you a job."

I wrestled with the devils - Olisa Metuh reflects on his life in prison
Olisa Metuh, the former spokesman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has said that he will use the rest of his life serving God and mankind, revealing that he saw hell while he was in prison.
Metuh spent 10 months at the National Correctional Centre, Kuje, FCT over issues bordering on money laundering and was released on December 24, 2020.
Speaking during a reception organised for him by the PDP in Awka, the Anambra State capital on Wednesday, February 24, Metuh said he saw hell in prison and has learnt how to serve God and humanity.
"I have been to the lowest, deepest end of the valley. I have wrestled with the demons. I wrestled with the devils. The Almighty God has saved me. For that, I commit the rest of my life to the service of God and the people. It is not easy. It is just like being in your house and an armed robber comes to your house, takes away all your earnings, beats you up, violate your wife, deal with your children and you can't do anything because he has the gun. When we have power, we should know how to use it because there is God in heaven. At the end of the day, all of us will die," he said
Metuh said while in prison, he learnt to be humble and to forgive people. He urged people to try to forgive one another.

Yankees Updated Starting Rotation After Gerrit Cole Signs 9-Year, $324M Contract
Paul KasabianSenior ContributorDecember 11, 2019
Patrick Semansky/Associated Press
The New York Yankees signed free-agent starting pitcher Gerrit Cole to a nine-year, $324 million contract Tuesday, according to Jon Heyman of MLB Network and WFAN Radio.
The Yankees are now the clear front-runners to win their first World Series since 2009 after landing the American League Cy Young runner-up and MLB strikeout leader to anchor a rotation that was hit-or-miss all of last season. He's an excellent addition to a team that won 103 games largely because of an excellent power-hitting lineup and a deep bullpen.
The starting rotation should now be a clear strength as well.
The top four figures to be Cole, Luis Severino, Masahiro Tanaka and James Paxton, per YES Network's Jack Curry. Either Domingo German or Jordan Montgomery will fill the fifth and final spot.
The Yankees' starters managed a 4.51 ERA last season, which was MLB's 15th-best mark. That didn't stop them from coming two wins away from knocking off the Houston Astros for the American League pennant, but signing the ace that co-anchored Houston's staff last year gives the Yanks the clear edge over their recent postseason archnemesis moving forward.
Cole is coming off a two-year stretch in which he went 35-10 with a 2.68 ERA and 602 strikeouts in 412.2 innings. He also punched out 10 or more batters over an 11-start stretch that ran into the postseason.
The question is how the rest of the Yankees pitching staff will do.
A healthy Severino is capable of being one of the American League's best pitchers, which was the case in 2017 and 2018 when he finished in the top 10 of AL Cy Young voting. However, a Grade 2 lat strain kept him off the diamond for all but three starts in the regular season this year.
Tanaka and Paxton were up and down. Tanaka posted a career-low 7.4 strikeouts per nine innings but largely excelled in the playoffs with a 2.25 ERA in three starts. Paxton seemingly ran into trouble every first inning but found a groove at the end of the season with a 1.69 ERA over his final seven starts.
Regardless of how they do, Cole's arrival will give the Yanks a chance to sport tremendous depth in their rotation, one that looks ready to compete for a World Series title.
Caesars Sportsbook lists the Yanks as 7-2 favorites to win the Fall Classic, ahead of the 6-1 Los Angeles Dodgers and 6-1 Astros to top the ledger.

Richard Gere claims he is being extorted for $500k by producers over rights to Buddhism film
The religion may be very Zen — but things can get pretty heated over the movie rights.
Richard Gere has claimed he is being extorted for $500k over the film rights to a book on Buddhism.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the 68-year-old filed a lawsuit on Friday in L.A. County Superior Court, stemming from a battle over Bones of the Master: A Buddhist Monk's Search for the Lost Heart of China by George L. Crane.
Gere claims that in 2009 he entered into a joint producer agreement with Random Acts Entertainment, owned by Scott and Anna Elias, with a view to bringing the book to the big screen.
He wanted to star in and direct the film, while Anna would write one or more drafts of the screenplay.
Gere claimed they agreed in 2015 to split the cost of the $35,000, and that he fronted the entire cost upfront.
However he said the Eliases never repaid him, thus losing any rights they had to the book.

Kikizo: The game's out in February. What have you got left to do?
Kikizo: Yeah, but haven't you been at the balancing and polishing phase for a few months now?
Smets: For multiplayer, we started our closed alpha gameplay testing last December, that was the first round. And this year in February we had the second round. At that time there were only half the maps - the other four were still being developed. And I think the other four were layout-final by March, and then we did gameplay alpha testing on those as well. So there was definitely some overlap, but everybody's testing and polishing now.
Kikizo: It's been rumoured that the game is in fact finished, and that the reason it isn't coming out this year is that Sony wants to avoid putting it into competition with Resistance 2.
Smets: The time that we still have left is definitely time that we need. As you can see we're still optimising, the frame-rate is still [inconsistent], there are collision errors in there... specifically for multiplayer the whole bug-fixing process, period. A lot of the bugs there will only happen if you have a full game. If you're a programmer and you have a bug fix, you need 32 people to see if your bug-fix actually fixed the bug! And I think that's really why for online multiplayer the process is so much longer, and of course because of the public beta trials, where you have to start really slow and add more people in as you go along.
Smets: It doesn't feel like a luxury! [laughs] The guys are in crunch time.
Smets: Yeah, it would definitely make sense. I imagine [the winter release] would have been the same week - that would not have been terribly smart, I agree.
Smets: I'm really looking forward to it. I think the trailer doesn't do justice to how scary the game will be once you play it.
Kikizo: And do you think Killzone 2 is going to be the definitive multiplayer experience on PS3?
Boltjes: It's really quite a unique experience, you know - the Killzone universe, the multiplayer features we have, and I really hope it's going to do well on the PS3 obviously.
Killzone 2's out in February. Interview by Adam, words by Edwin.

Hi, I'm doing a SSD upgrade on a DELL Dimension E510. I've used Acronis True Image for Crucial so it has reach to the "Less than 1 minute" mark but the old drive stop making it noise and the meter is not moving. I've checked the task manager to see if it's responding or not but it's working. It's been like this more than 30 minutes. The computer is not frozen but the cloning software is not finishing up the cloning process, what should I do?
It's a Windows 7 Machine and it seems it has downloaded some windows updates when it was doing the cloning process but I turned off the internet.
I would recommend creating a bootable Acronis USB drive and booting from the Acronis USB drive so things like this don't interfere with the clone. It should also speed up the cloning process a bit. There should be an option within the Acronis software to create a bootable USB drive. It may be referred to as Recovery Media.
If you still have issues with the clone when using the bootable Acronis USB drive, then you may want to check your original drive's health using a utility such as GSmartControl (there is a portable version which does not require installation).

Q: How to align a marginpar with a section title I wish to have brief information in a marginpar (or other solution) that aligns with the corresponding section (not section*) heading. So far the margin information is above or below the section title.
When run, the following MWE generates the margin text below the section title.
\documentclass[openany]{book}
\begin{document}
\chapter{Chapter Heading}
\section{Section Heading}\marginpar{\normalfont\normalsize Associated text}
Is it working?
\end{document}

I've searched the interwebs for help. I found Vertical alignment of marginnote and section heading, but this article deals with section*. Alas, perhaps it can't be done...
But I hope that it can.

A: \documentclass[openany]{book}
\usepackage{marginnote}
\renewcommand*\marginfont{\normalcolor\normalfont\small}

\begin{document}
\chapter{Chapter Heading}
\section[Section Heading]{Section Heading\marginnote{Associated text}}
%The optional argument of \section is used for the TOC
Is it working?
\end{document}

A: Move the \marginpar inside the argument for \section:
\documentclass[openany]{book}
\begin{document}
\chapter{Chapter Heading}
\section[Section Heading]{Section Heading\protect\marginpar{\normalfont\normalsize Associated text}}
Is it working?
\end{document}

As an alternative, you can use \marginnote from the marginnote package instead and move the \marginnote command inside the argument for \section:
\documentclass[openany]{book}
\usepackage{marginnote}
\begin{document}
\chapter{Chapter Heading}
\section{Section Heading\protect\marginnote{\normalfont\normalsize Associated text}}
Is it working?
\end{document}

The optional argument was used so the marginal note won't be in the ToC so \protect is not really needed; if the optional argument is not used, it is necessary to \protect the command.

Q: Is that possible to write dynamic code for Salesforce SOAP to use object like map? For regular SObject, I can run the following code:
static void x(Map<String, String> fieldValuesMap) {

    SObject so;

    for (String key: fieldValuesMap.keySet() ) {

          so.put( key, fieldValuesMap.get(value) );

     }

    insert so;

}

However, when I try to do the same thing with SOAP SObject
static void x(Map<String, String> fieldValuesMap) {

    sobjectEnterpriseSoapSforceCom.sObject_x so;

    for (String key: fieldValuesMap.keySet() ) {

          so.put( key, fieldValuesMap.get(value) );

     }

    insert so;

}

the last one raises an exception

Method does not exist or incorrect signature:
  [sobjectEnterpriseSoapSforceCom.Account].put(String)

Is it possible to dynamically fill field values for SObject in SOAP?

A: There's no such thing as "reflection" in Apex Code, so if you want to write the fields dynamically, you'd have to write your own set method, which would kind of defeat the purpose.
However, you might be able to get away with using JSON:
sobjectEnterpriseSoapSforceCom.sObject_x so = (sobjectEnterpriseSoapSforceCom.sObject_x)
    JSON.deserialize(JSON.serialize(fieldValuesMap),
    sobjectEnterpriseSoapSforceCom.sObject_x.class);

However, even in that case, you might also need to copy some internal state, so you'd end up having to initialize a refresh copy of sObject_x, convert it to a Map via JSON.deserialize, then use Map.putAll to write the new fieldValuesMap into the new map, then deserialize back into the object again.
Map<String, Object> temp = (Map<String, Object>)
    JSON.serialize(sobjectEnterpriseSoapSforceCom.sObject_x);
temp.putAll((Map<String, Object>)fieldValuesMap);

sobjectEnterpriseSoapSforceCom.sObject_x so = (sobjectEnterpriseSoapSforceCom.sObject_x)
    JSON.deserialize(JSON.serialize(temp),
    sobjectEnterpriseSoapSforceCom.sObject_x.class);

I hope this helps you, but as I said, it's probably going to be a very messy affair.

She worked in an Istanbul-based gallery and frequently contributes reviews and interviews to publications like Istanbul art news, Artful Living, Trendsetter or KLOK. For her current project, the maumau residency, Naz organises the artists' stay and co-curates exhibitions together with her collaborateur and maumau-founder Sine Ergün.
Mine Kaplangı: Naz, you are co-directing the maumau residency in Istanbul, which was founded three years ago. What kind of programs does it offer?
Naz Cuguoğlu: We have three programs: The first – the artist-in-residence program – is for artists, who are interested in staying for 6 weeks, working in a shared studio, networking with the local art community and having a final show at the end. The second is a writer-in-residence program, which is for writers, who also want to stay for 6 weeks and work on their projects. The third is a self-directed-residence program for those who would like to choose the length of their stay and to work on their own project. We also try to take advantage from the residency's central location by organizing artist talks, readings by writers and some exhibitions by artists from Turkey to support them. And at the same time, we do our best to stay familiar, real and even naïve, resisting the difficult atmosphere of Istanbul's art market. We do our best to collaborate as much as possible. Our doors are open to everyone.
Mine: How do you finance maumau?
Naz: It is very hard to get funds for arts and culture in turkey, so we finance the residency program through payments from the artists. However, we send them an invitation letter and luckily 80% receive funding from their own government.
Mine: You write for many different magazines and art blogs – what do you write about?
Naz: Each of them has a different significance for me with their varying topics. I have been interested in writing all my life. I keep on writing short stories and poems for myself.
Mine: How would you evaluate the status of art criticism in Turkey?
Naz: I believe that there is a problem about our way of criticism. Partly, this is about our culture, since we tend to perceive criticism as a mark of someone's negative attitudes and feelings towards us. Therefore, when you read an article, it is all about praises and affirmative comments. On the other hand, critics are afraid of making enemies and of being left all alone. I think we need to break this rule somehow. We need structured criticism to progress and develop.
Mine: Could you tell me a bit about your ongoing interview series about initiatives, that is, project spaces in Turkey?
Naz: Yes, for Artful Living, I am working on a conversation series with different initiatives in Turkey. I wanted to create sort of an archive for current project spaces. Most of them are getting closed from day to day. I wanted to know what was going on. Being part of the initiatives' world through maumau, I am realising during the conversations that we share many common experiences from Istanbul's art world: We all have a hard time to define the initiative, we all want to resist against art market, but at the same time we want to be visible so that we attend art fairs. Money is a common problem: Getting funds for cultural initiatives in Turkey is really difficult for all of us.
Mine: Do you also interview artists and curators?
Naz: For the magazine Trendsetter, I am mainly conducting interviews. My first one was with Özdemir Altan – I was really excited and my hands were shaking. I had prepared myself and tried to find questions that he never got asked. After the interview he told me that he was very impressed by my questions and he added that interviewers would mostly come to him without any questions on their minds. I was really surprised to hear that others do not even prepare questions. I believe that the key words for our generation are: Do not fake it, always ask, be real and be yourself. We need these. Time to be cool is over. Instead it is time to be honest and real and to collaborate!
Mine: The maumau residency is located in the central district Çukurcuma. How does the art scene develop in this part of Istanbul?
Naz: Istanbul is going through a horrible gentrification. Çukurcuma is already gentrified and the process already moved to the districts of Karaköy and Kadıköy. Clearly, this creates problems for Çukurcuma and its art scene. Many galleries and artist studios left this neighborhood, moving to cheaper parts. The quick transformation and the consumption really scare me. However, there are still great and new places in our district: I really support and admire the exhibitions by Blok Art Space and by PRIZMA, who mostly aim to support young artists and creative artworks.
Mine: Where, do you think, is Istanbul's art scene generally heading?
Naz: I find the art scene in Istanbul a bit repetitive. Although there is space for creativity and progress, we do not take most advantage out of it. This is partly because of daily problems, such as depressive news, killings or transportation problems. However, we have to find ways to fight back these problems, and get our hands dirty by experimenting more and taking more risks.
Also, it is interesting to see how small the art community in Istanbul is. We have to find a way to enlarge our community and including a wider audience so that we can talk about different perspectives and progress as the whole art community.
Mine: You are already actively increasing the size of the art community with your residency program and the exhibitions at the space. What will be the exhibition project?
Naz: I will curate an exhibition with the curator and writer Mehmet Kahraman titled 'Active Forgetting' from April 17th to May 16th at maumau. It will be about the memory of the city and the difficulties we face to get over harsh memories, directly related to Nietzsche's concept of 'active forgetting'. We are aiming to make the audience think about what the mind updates while forgetting.
Mine: Like you, many new key figures in İstanbul's art scene belong to a young and strong generation. Do you think that this shift could cause a major change for Istanbul?
Naz: I do believe that our generation will take the power in their hands very soon. There is a great atmosphere of creativity and excitement in the air. The only thing is that we should not forget the power of collaboration. I believe that the ones who will prefer to stay selfish and keep their knowledge to themselves will not progress. We have to meet more, talk more and create more! It is all in the air…

2.146 and 2.198.
The provisions of 35 U.S.C. § 21(a) and 37 CFR 2.195(e) apply only to
postal interruptions and emergencies. These provisions do not provide for
the granting of a filing date to correspondence as of the date on which it
would have been filed but for other exigencies, such as the unavailability
of an office or building other than a USPS facility. These provisions apply
only if the post office was closed or "Express Mail" service suspended in
the affected areas on the specified date due to the Flooding in Iowa.
Under 37 CFR 2.195(e) and 2.198, any person attempting to file
unable to be deposited with the USPS due to the interruption or emergency
in "Express Mail" service in the areas designated in this notice may
particular date in the Office. The petition must:
(1) Be filed promptly after the ending of the designated interruption or
(2) Include the original correspondence or a copy of the original
correspondence; and
(3) Include a statement which establishes, to the satisfaction of the
Director, that (a) the correspondence would have been deposited with the
USPS but for the designated interruption or emergency in "Express Mail"
service, and (b) the correspondence or copy of the correspondence is the
original correspondence or a true copy of the correspondence originally

§ 1141f(a); and requests for extensions of time to oppose applications
based on 15 U.S.C. § 1141f(a). Therefore, it would be inappropriate to
file a petition seeking a filing date as of the date of deposit of these
types of correspondence as Express Mail.
Moreover, 37 CFR 2.197 (certificate of mailing procedure) does not
provide for according a filing date as of the date of deposit with the
USPS. Therefore, it would be inappropriate to file a petition seeking a
filing date as of the date on a certificate of mailing under 37 CFR 2.197.

In casinos, usually, large sums of money are transacted through gaming tables, slot machines, retail operations, and ATM kiosks (or ticket redemption machines). The Bank Secrecy Act was first implemented on financial institutions, but criminal and illegal activities in casinos created a need for creating additional regulations, specific to casinos.
According to recent laws, casinos in the US that generate over $1,000,000 annual revenues are required to report certain transactions to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN). The reason is to assist the FinCEN in discovering illegal activities, such as money laundering, terrorist financing, and other financial crimes.
Title 31 refers to 31 CFR Chapter 10 of the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN). It is a codified regulation that enforces the Bank Secrecy Act. The director of FinCEN is responsible for enforcing compliance with the Bank Secrecy Act. Mostly associated with the Casino and Gaming Industry, Title 31 requires Casino owners to record and report the identity of individual patrons who make transactions of more than $10,000.
Title 31 was adopted to acknowledge that casino owners use banking service. In addition, banking is one of the most regulated industries in the world. Therefore, the illegal use of banking services creates a need for additional regulations, which were specific to the casino and gaming industry.
If your casino or card club generates gross annual gaming revenue (GARA) more than 1 million dollars, you will be required to comply with the casino with Title 31 requirements. In case your casino has a GARA that is less than 1 million dollars, you will not be required to comply with your casino or card club with Title 31 regulations.
• Casino owners are required to file and keep records of all the transactions- Currency Transaction Reports (CTRs). Besides, it is obligatory for them to keep records of Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs).
• CTR-FinCEN Form 112- needs to be filled out and filed electronically via Bank Secrecy Act filing system by casinos and all financial institutions, whenever there's a transaction of more than $10,000.
• SAR- FinCEN Form 111- needs to be filled out and filed through BSA E-filing system by casinos and all financial institutions, whenever more than $5,000 transactions are made that are deemed suspicious.
• It's required to create and implement a written Anti-Money Laundering (AML) program, which is used to assess terrorist financing and money laundering assumed by card club or casino to prevent risks.
Does Title 31 Affect your Casino Business?
Businesses licensed by the IRS as either card club or casino and have gross annual gaming revenues (GAGR) more than 1 million dollars are required to comply with Title 31 regulations. There is an exception for the casinos located in Nevada; casino owners that have GAGA more than $10,000,000 need to comply with Title 31.
• Criminal penalties up to $250,000, imprisonment up to 5 years (of any director, partner, employee, or officer, participated in the violation purposely).
• Criminal penalties up to $500,000, imprisonment up to 5 years (of any director, partner, employee, or officer, participated in the violation purposely), if the violation is committed while breaching another law or performing any illegal activity involving $100,000 or more in 12 months.
• If you fail to develop AML program, you will subject to pay $25,000 penalty for each day until violation continues.
Considering the safe and secure transactions in casino and card clubs, it is crucial for you to comply with the Title 31 regulations.
FinCEN announced a final rule that exempts casinos from the requirement to file CTRCs on jackpots from slot machines and video lottery terminals. The final rule also exempts reportable transactions in currency, under certain conditions, involving certain money plays and bills inserted into electronic gaming devices.


The Seita Holiday Resort inn was built in the 1950s and 1960s when spacious accommodation and proper sound proofing were relatively unknown concepts. The joys and sorrows of life were shared by all.
Times have changed, as have the expectations we place on holiday resorts, but old traditions still have their value. An affordable option, also for those on holiday by themselves.
Today, the Sivakka inn has been updated to meet modern standards. The inn offers a warm room at an affordable price and the same services as elsewhere in the Seita Holiday Resort.
An ideal basecamp for school trips and for other small groups. The common room is well suited for teaching and meetings.

Q: Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class Net_SSH2 in /var/www/phpseclib/Net/SSH2.php on line 194 I have created a CI model that dynamically loads certain classes depending on a parameter that is passed in.  These classes are just wrapper classes around phpseclib to make ssh connections to different devices.
What I'm noticing is that when I try to execute one particular method, I'm getting the above error message.
Here's some sample code to help you understand what I'm doing.  This is what my model looks like:
    public function get_portstatusall($ip, $switchname)
    {
        $classname = $this->switchToClassName($switchname);
        try{
        include_once(APPPATH.'libraries/'.$classname.'.php');
        $switch_obj = new $classname($ip, 'password', '');
        $switch_obj->connect();
        $data = $switch_obj->dosomething();
        $switch_obj->disconnect();
        return $data;
        }
         catch (Exception $e) {
            echo 'this really should be logged...';
            return false;
         }
    }

            public function get_portstatusindividual($ip, $switchname)
            {
                 $classname = $this->switchToClassName($switchname);
                 try{

                     include_once(APPPATH.'libraries/'.$classname.'.php');
         $switch_obj = new $classname($ip, 'password', '');
         $switch_obj->connect();
         $data = $switch_obj->dosomethingelse();
         $switch_obj->disconnect();
         return $data;
         }
         catch (Exception $e) {
            echo 'this really should be logged...';
            return false;
         }
               }

As you can see, i'm dynamically determining which class to load depending on the switchname that is passed in. This code successfully loads a class called "device123.php", let's say. Class device123 in turn, instantiates the SSH2 object that comes with the phpseclib, and uses it to send ssh commands to the device.
Here's a clip of code from device 123:

class device123
{
// sample code to demo how to use phpseclib to create an interactive ssh session.
//this library relies on phpseclib.  you must include this class and SSH2.php from Net/phpseclib.

private $_hostname;
private $_password;
private $_username;
private $_connection;
private $_data;
private $_timeout;
private $_prompt;

public function __construct($hostname, $password, $username = "", $timeout = 10)
//public function __construct($params)
{
    echo 'in the switch constructor<br>';
    set_include_path(get_include_path() . PATH_SEPARATOR . '/var/www/phpseclib');
    include('Net/SSH2.php');

   $this->_hostname = $hostname;
    $this->_password = $password;
    $this->_username = $username;

} // __construct

public function connect()
{
    $ssh = new Net_SSH2($this->_hostname);
    if (!$ssh->login($this->_username, $this->_password)) { //if you can't log on...
    die("Error: Authentication Failed for $this->_hostname\n");
    }
    else  {

    $output= $ssh->write("\n"); //press any key to continue prompt;
    $prompt=$ssh->read('/([0-9A-Z\-])*(#)(\s*)/i', NET_SSH2_READ_REGEX);
    if (!$prompt) {
        die("Error: Problem connecting for $this->_hostname\n");
    }
    else {

        $this->_connection = $ssh;
    }

    }
} // connect

public function close()
{
    $this->_send('exit');
} // close

public function disconnect()
{
  $this->_connection->disconnect();
  $ssh=NULL;
}

I don't think I quite understand how I can be redeclaring the SSH2 class... but i wanted to see if perhaps I was not destroying / cleaning up after myself properly.
To help troubleshoot, I've tried adding debug echo statements in the constructor and destructor of both the SSH2 class, and also the wrapper class called device123.
It all looks proper...
I don't think I'm on the right track... Can you tell me where you think I should start looking?
Is it because it's possible that both methods are called ... one after the other... and both can possibly load the same class?
Thanks.

A: Php gives such error when you are trying to load class multiple times like same name class exists in other source file.

A: All php classes must have unique names. You should include all the files at one place, keep track of all loaded classes if you want a lazy loading, or just use http://cz.php.net/include_once. The same goes for the require function.
The _once postfix does exactly what you need: it prevents the files from loading if it already has been loaded, thus preventing the class redeclaration.

Alice LaPlante. Scribner, $26 (288p) ISBN 978-1-5011-9088-9
In this well-crafted novel of psychological suspense from bestseller LaPlante (Coming of Age at the End of Days), 39-year-old Jane O'Malley moves from San Francisco to a village on the California coast near Half Moon Bay, where she works with plants at Smithson's Nursery in an effort to get over the death of her 16-year-old daughter, Angela, in a car accident and her divorce from husband Rick, which was a consequence of that tragedy. Then, five-year-old Heidi McCready disappears, and her body turns up carefully wrapped in a blanket left in a field eight days later. More children go missing, much to the consternation of the members of the little community. Jane feels empathy for the bereaved parents, but her erratic behavior causes the FBI to consider her a suspect. The seductive Edward Stanton, an environmental activist, and his beautiful companion, Alma Godwin, who happen to know about Jane's losses, challenge her to move beyond her pain as a surprising climax approaches. This complex character study will appeal as much to mainstream fiction readers as genre fans. Agent: Victoria Skurnick, Levine Greenburg Literary. (July)

Das Komplementprotein C4d ist ein Spaltprodukt von C4 im klassischen Weg der Komplementkaskade. Das Protein lagert sich an jener Stelle ab, wo die Komplementreaktion stattgefunden hat. Bei der akuten Antikörper-mediierten Abstoßung (AMR) in Nierentransplantaten sind das die peritubulären Kapillaren (PTC). Egal ob Biopsien mit Immunhistochemie (IHC) oder Immunfluoreszenz (IF) gefärbt werden, ein positives C4d ist in der Regel mit einem verringerten Outcome assoziiert. Als Ablagerungsform lassen sich die diffuse und die fokale Ablagerung beschreiben, wobei sich die AMR meist in einer diffusen Ablagerung zeigt. Die fokale Ablagerung wurde bis jetzt noch nicht komplett definiert. Die Anti-humoralen Behandlungsstrategien in Form von Apherese und/oder Immunmodulation stellen eine gute Therapie für die Allo-Antikörper-mediierte Nierentransplantatabstoßung dar. Als Allo-Antikörper Screening wird in der Routine der complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) - panel reactive antibody (PRA) Test eingesetzt. Jedoch könnte ein anderer Test, der [C4d]FlowPRA, aufgrund seiner höheren Sensitivität und Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA)-Spezifität eine Alternative zum CDC-PRA Test darstellen.
The complement protein C4d is a cleavage product of C4 in the classical pathway of complement. The protein is deposited on the spot where the complement reaction occurred. In acute antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) in kidney transplants are these peritubular capillaries (PTC). Whether biopsies are dyed by immunohistochemistry (IHC) or immunofluorescence (IF), a positive C4d is usually associated with a low outcome. Deposition can be described as diffuse or focal deposits, in which the AMR usually shows diffuse deposition. The focal deposition is not completely defined yet. The anti-humoral therapeutic strategies in the form of apheresis and / or immune modulation are a good therapy for the alloantibody-mediated kidney transplant rejection. For alloantibody screening in the routine the complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) panel reactive antibody (PRA) assay is used. However, represent the [C4d] FlowPRA due to its higher sensitivity and specificity of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) an alternative to CDC-PRA assay.
