Trump fumes over border wall as budget deal advances
A September shutdown showdown is still a possibility, which Republicans are eager to avoid.
By BURGESS EVERETT and MELANIE ZANONA
President Donald Trump is still fixated on his beloved border wall — complaining about media coverage and insisting to confidants behind closed doors that the replacement wall being funded by Congress is not getting the attention it deserves.
"The media is wrong. The wall is being built," Trump told Senate Republicans at the White House last week, according to attendees. "400 miles of wall."
And in private meetings at the White House this year, as well as publicly, Trump has voiced frustration with Democrats — and former Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) — for failing to implement his immigration priorities, according to multiple sources familiar with the conversations.
The Senate is on course to pass a sweeping, two-year budget agreement this week that averts the threat of default and avoids blunt spending cuts loathed by both parties.
But separate legislation to fund individual government agencies must still be passed by the end of September, and the bipartisan deal does little to spell out how Congress and the president will handle the issue that fueled the longest government shutdown in U.S. history.
The Supreme Court delivered Trump a major victory on Friday, ruling that his administration can start using $2.5 billion in unspent military funds to construct a wall along the southern border. That could help satisfy Trump if he feels like he can point to progress on a key campaign promise.
But Republicans readily acknowledge they don't know how the fall funding fight will play out and are reluctant to predict what Trump will do. They don't know how hard Trump will push for a border wall, not to mention other hot-button immigration provisions. If he won't compromise with the Democrats who control the House, a shutdown fight could ensue — exactly what GOP leaders are eager to avoid heading into an election year.
"I'm sure there's going to be a fight over the border wall," said Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), a close Trump ally, who added that he is far more eager to overhaul asylum laws, as Trump has also demanded.

Republicans are still smarting from last winter's 35-day shutdown after Congress denied Trump $5 billion for the wall, as well as the tough votes they were forced to take on upholding his national emergency declaration and unilateral funding transfer. Unless Trump rescinds his national emergency, Republicans expect to be forced to vote on it again as soon as September.
Given that ugly history, GOP leaders hope they've secured enough releases to keep Trump from picking a border wall fight that ends in another shutdown.
For instance, the budget deal preserves the president's power to redirect money from the Defense Department to a wall and included an agreement from Speaker Nancy Pelosi not to include "poison pill" policy provisions that might restrict Trump's immigration agenda. Now, he's also been given a green light from the Supreme Court to spend excess military personnel funds and other Pentagon money on border wall construction.
There's also always the possibility of a stopgap spending bill for the Department of Homeland Security that would provide roughly $1.4 billion for improvements to existing border barriers. One senator predicted that stopgap could be applied all the way until November 2020.
Yet Republicans are realistic about the toxic mix of issues facing them ahead of a funding deadline that will approach quickly after Congress returns from its August recess. The Homeland Security spending bill is likely to be the last one written, considering how controversial immigration policy has become. And it's not just the border wall that could trip up Congress, but also detention beds and ICE funding.
"It's going to be challenging, no doubt. We're just going to work hard to get the president's priorities," said Sen. Shelley Moore Capito (R-W.Va.), who leads the DHS spending committee. "We're always going to be fighting over the wall and ICE beds, all the way until the election, even if we can settle it in our minds."

Though the budget agreement is being widely sold as taking a shutdown off the table in September, few are willing to predict that it will stop another round of brinkmanship on the border. Sen. Kevin Cramer (R-N.D.), a close Trump ally, said the president has not been boasting about the transfer authority he maintains, suggesting he's still unsatisfied.
"It seems like the border wall is moving along so slowly even with money, much less without it," Cramer said.
Continuing current funding for DHS would still give Trump wall money, albeit money for specific sections of fencing that have already been funded. Several lawmakers noted privately that, given those limitations, such a stopgap bill could annoy the president.
Democrats say they are pleased with their negotiating position heading into the fall since it preserves the status quo, even though the budget agreement maintains the president's transfer authority, which he could try to use as a back door to slip billions into his border wall.
"I would like to see the current authority restricted," said Senate Minority Whip Dick Durbin (D-Ill.). "Of course, I'm concerned about it. But what I'm saying is: We're not in any worse shape because of this agreement."
Republicans are actively touting the preservation of the president's border wall transfer authority as a huge concession by Democrats. They say that even though Democrats have the House, they won't be able to stop the president from moving around money.
"It's a win for the White House," said Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas).
GOP lawmakers also said Trump has been trying to brainstorm new ways to notch progress on one of his signature campaign issues as he heads into 2020.
"I can tell you, when we were able to last talk as a group with him, he was very frustrated," said Rep. Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.), a member of the House Freedom Caucus. "But he is always upbeat about new ideas. 'How can I do this? How can we construct this?'"
Many Republicans are trying to redirect the president to other immigration fights, even if they are just as unwinnable as one over the wall.

Republicans have been pushing to scuttle the Flores settlement, a 1997 decision that allows the release of children after 20 days in federal custody. But asylum reforms are unlikely after bipartisan talks fell apart just days ago.
"We need money for the border wall, but more than anything else we need to change our laws because everybody coming here is trying to get caught," said Graham. "My focus now is not the wall, it's asylum."
Even the Republicans who egged on Trump to shut down the government last year are now suggesting Republicans should prioritize dealing with the migrant influx and be satisfied with the border wall status quo.
"There's still the $4 [billion] or $5 billion to construct border wall initiatives with reprogramming. And I know it was an issue with this budget deal to make sure that [Democrats] couldn't stop that," said Rep. Mark Meadows (R-N.C.), one of Trump's closest confidants and the head of the hard-line Freedom Caucus.
There's a widespread belief within the GOP after the last shutdown that cooler heads will prevail both this fall and next.
Trump has shown ideological flexibility when it comes to increasing spending and cutting deals with Democrats to avoid a fight over the debt limit. And he's signaled that he understands any budgetary chaos could hurt his reelection campaign.
But until the government is actually funded past September, few are willing to declare victory just yet.
"You're asking me to predict what Donald Trump will do?" asked Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.), a frequent Trump antagonist. "I think we will hear about the wall again."

How Can you Cost Effectively Market your Indie Films?

If you are an indie film maker, you must be often forced to work on shoestring budgets. Moreover, you may often have to make compromises with the creative concept of the film simply because you know that the marketing effort would eat up a chunk of the total appropriation. But there are some innovative methods of marketing that are becoming increasingly popular with indie film makers. If you haven't tried them out yet, you may give them a try.
Innovative marketing efforts that can save you money:
Make your audience a part of the film right from the beginning– This is an idea which is tried by marketing teams of big budget films as well. Creating small teaser videos of an engrossing scene doesn't take much. Make that one scene a talking point. Don't reveal a lot and keep the suspense growing. In the lead up to the film, you can release a few 1 to 2 min videos. You may also take candid footages of the actors during their shoot and make a collage and upload them on Youtube or Vimeo.
Create a page on Wikipedia– Wikipedia is a free site and creating a page won't cost you a single pie. Create a page about the film well in advance. After the film has been conceptualized and the script has been locked, you can put out some interesting information about the film like the characters, the tentative actors, a one-line or two-line plot summary and a working title, if the final title has not been locked.
Stage a short play or skit– You can take your group of amateur actors to different local film festivals and stage short skits outside. You would get your ideal audience outside these festivals and you can directly engage them. Ask for their opinion and advice to make them even more involved.
Film Festivals– Film festivals may be your best bet. Try to take your film to as many festivals as possible without waiting for only the top burns like Raindance or Sundance. Request the organizers to screen your film, became part of interactive sessions, talk to the media if you get a chance and try to build up a positive word of mouth publicity.
Create an interactive Facebook Page– This is the least expensive way to reach out to as many of your target audience as possible. Use a lot of graphics, photos from the movie and share interesting trivia about the movie. Basically, try to create a compelling narrative on your page. Publish interviews of your leads in a Q&A format like newspapers and magazines do. Hold chat sessions with your fans. It will really help to drive engagement.
See how easy marketing a movie can be? In the digital age, marketing a movie has become almost as easy as shooting one. Just go out there and shoot!

the Original Krewe of Orpheus History
On a balmy April's Fool evening in 1987, near the shores of Lake Ponchatrain, eleven businessmen gathered at Benny Delauzin's home to form a new carnival Krewe that would bring a first-class parade to Mandeville. The ladies Original Krewe of Orpheus had successfully paraded the year before. By February 12th, Orpheus had grown to 225 men, and paraded for the first time on the Friday night before Mardi Gras in l988 with thirteen floats and as many local and regional marching bands. Reaction was overwhelming - both from riders and parade goers. Riders who had ridden in other parades in New Orleans were amazed that folks here actually say "Thank You" when tossed beads or other throws. The family orientation of parading in Mandeville was a pleasant departure for many seasoned riders who were used to rowdy crowds and big city hassles. The public and press declared Mandeville's new Krewe a "great success" and the Organization grew into the Northshore's premier men's carnival organization.
Quality and quantity are stressed in the "throws" department, with the generous Krewe creating their own throws throughout the years. During an early Board of Directors discussion of throws, Roger Farris opined that it would be cool to have an indigenous Krewe throw. Webb Williams went home and began the development of a pinecone sprayed purple, green and gold, sprinkled it with gold glitter and glued a gold doubloon to its base. Legend has it that those who catch an Orpheus Pineloon and display it in their home will experience good fortune all year long. Now, parade goers hold up signs asking for the special throw. Float members get together in the months preceding the parade and have Pineloon parties, at which some pineloons actually get created. It has become as popular as the coconut is to Zulu.
The offical call and response of the hearty Krewe is: "HAIL ORPHEUS" "HAIL YES"
The original Orpheus eleven: Doug Baker "Captain", Kerry Burst, Bill Cox, Jack Cressend, Benny Delauzain, Roger Farris, Howard Hodes, Grant Macdiarmid, Ed Parker, Art Rahn and Webb Williams.

Mardi Gras, Buy the Book
Never before has the history of the Mardi Gras celebration been looked at this way. Errol Laborde focuses on the first 60 years of the organized celebration in New Orleans, a period that bridges the premiere parade of the Mistick Krewe of Comus and the founding of the Zulu organization. Along the way he discovers fascinating characters; including a poetic journalist who survived a bloody attack, an archduke looking for fun and a would-be king finding religion. Laborde also links an African War with Custer¹s Last Stand and disproves some of the conventional wisdom about Carnival¹s early history. This is the most important contemporary book on early Carnival history. And it fun to read too.

Family Finally Agrees to Bury Mugabe in 'Heroes Monument'
The family of former Zimbabwe leader Robert Mugabe have agreed to bury him at a monument for national heroes in Harare, a family spokesman said on Friday though the date for the ceremony was still unclear.
Mugabe died in Singapore last week aged 95, leaving Zimbabweans torn over the legacy of a leader once lauded as an anti-colonial guerrilla hero, but whose 37-year iron-fisted rule ended in a coup in 2017.
His family and President Emmerson Mnangagwa, a former Mugabe ally who turned against him, had been at odds over where he would be buried after his body returned home on Wednesday.
"Yes I can confirm," Leo Mugabe told reporters when asked whether the family had agreed to a burial in National Heroes Acre in Harare.
He said the traditional chiefs in Mugabe's homestead had made that decision.
"They have now pronounced their position so if they have pronounced that the burial will be at the Heroes Acre that means that we now have to wait for the details… whether it will be a private burial or a public one."
Tensions erupted after Mnangagwa's government proposed a burial at the National Heroes Acre in Harare while the family said he would be buried at a private ceremony, possibly in his homestead of Kutama, northwest of the capital.
The former leader had been travelling to Singapore regularly for medical treatment but allies say his health deteriorated rapidly after his ouster. Mugabe's body arrived from Singapore on Wednesday at Harare airport.
Chinese President Xi Jinping, Cuban former leader Raul Castro and a dozen African presidents, including South Africa's Cyril Ramaphosa, are among those expected to attend Mugabe's state funeral on Saturday in Harare.

Who: Mansfield Senior Tygers (3-1, 1-0 in OCC) vs. Orrville Red Riders (1-3, 0-1 in OCC).
Where: Heartland Field at Red Rider Stadium.
All-Time Series: Orrville leads 9-6, including 5 of the last 6. Senior has not won at Orrville since 2002.
Last Year: The Tygers won 21-14.
Coaches: Chioke Bradley is in his 3rd season as Tyger head coach with a 12-12 record. Doug Davault is 51-25 in his 7th season as Orrville head coach.
Well...this is certainly uncharted territory for Red Rider fans..and players/coaches too. We've not lost 3 games in a row since 2002 & it's only happened 3 times since 1990. And never had an Orrville team lost 3 in a row in a season and gone on to make the playoffs.....but enough of the negative, that's not what this site is about and that's not what this team is about.
I have a real good feeling about this matchup with the Tygers. They've won 3 of their first 4 and are averaging 40 points per game over the past two weeks. Our offense struggled to put points on the board last week at Lexington, but had several drives stall in Lex territory & our defense fell victim to the big play.
Senior will bring maybe their most talented and athletic team (and new helmets) they've had in a long time to Orrville so the Riders will have to play their most complete game of the season to break the losing streak and get all-time win #598. Senior has not won at Orrville since 2002 so they'll have plenty of their own motivation. A week after breaking a 7-year drought against Clear Fork last week, Senior is out to put another losing streak to bed, and position themselves nicely in the OCC and possibly a playoff appearance.
With West Holmes coming to town next week and a trip to Ashland after that, the Riders are running out of time to get back in the hunt. Another OCC loss probably means another season without a OCC title and will dig us a deep hole in the hunt for playoff appearance #23.
I think the Riders come out with something to prove. I'm encouraged to hear that the kids are keeping their heads up and continuing to work hard to get better. I think it's a matter of hitting some big plays early. Playing with a lead is imperative this week...as Senior seems to be a team that gets more confident as the game wears on. It's time our defense creates some turnovers and some big plays of their own....let's get an early lead and make the Tygers play catch up.
The Riders haven't killed themselves with penalties so far this season, it's just a matter of finishing drives. When we get inside the 20, we have to find a way to put points on the board.
Call it a hunch, but I think the Riders get the win and ride some momentum into week 6. Our backs haven't been against the wall in week 5 in a very long time...and if there's one thing fans should know by now is that we seem to play our best ball when our backs are against the wall & everyone doubts us.
All Time Series: Orrville leads 8-5.
Last Week: Orrville lost to Copley 34-28, Lexington lost Olentangy 35-21.
Coaches: Dan Studer takes over Minutemen football after BJ Payne resigned at the end of last season. Studer is a Massillon graduate and one of the featured subjects in the film 'Go Tigers.' Doug Davault is in his 7th season at Orrville, with an overall record of 51-24.
This isn't territory an Orrville football team is accustomed to. The last time an Orrville football team lost 2 straight games was in 2009 when they dropped the first 2 games of the season to Northwest and Triway. The Riders under Doug Davault have never lost 3 games in a row. A 3-game losing streak hasn't happened since the 2002 season that saw them go 2-8.
The Riders will seek to avoid a 3-game losing streak when they travel to Lexington Friday night in the opening week of OCC play. Lexington is coming off their first loss of the season last week so both teams will be looking to right the ship.
I hate to look any farther than this week, but if the Riders are to make a run at their 4th straight playoff appearance, this game is as "must win" as any week 4 game can be. A 1-3 record with Mansfield Senior, West Holmes and Ashland looming on the schedule would not bode well for the Riders playoff chances. But a win over the Minutemen Friday would give the Riders a much-needed jolt of confidence heading into 2 straight home games.
The Riders will look to build on last week's positive effort against Copley. They fought back from down 28-7 to make it a 1 touchdown game. If not for the effort of Copley's Aregeros Turner, the Riders might have pulled that game out.
For the 2nd straight week, the game won't be on TV or radio, which is a bit disappointing, as a drive to Lexington is nearly an hour. This would be where a web radio broadcast specifically for Orrville games would come in real handy....someone should work on that.
Here's hoping for a Rider win. Let's get this thing back on track.
All Time Series: Orrville leads 24-14. Copley has won the last two matchups, 34-33 in double overtime in 2010 and 14-13 in overtime last year. Orrville is 3-2 at Copley since the rivalry renewed in 2001.
Last Meeting: Copley won 14-13 in overtime last season.
Last Week: Orrville lost to Triway 29-20, Copley beat Akron Firestone 34-27.
Coaches: Doug Davault is 51-23 in his 7th year as Orrville coach, Ron Viscounte is 27-26 in his 6th year for Copley.
Radio/TV: None that I know of.

A new King Soopers brings booze to the party
Jonathan Shikes | November 15, 2010 | 2:16pm
Thanksgiving dinner isn't complete without a big glass of wine, and King Soopers will open its first and only grocery/liquor store just in time to take advantage of that.
The store, at 4600 Leetsdale Drive in Glendale, will roll out the shopping carts and slide open the automatic doors on Wednesday, November 17, with a day-long grand-opening party that will include coffee and doughnuts, samplings, giveaways, a string quartet and appearances by Rocky, the Denver Nuggets mascot, and Miles, the Broncos mascot.
While the finishing touches are still being applied, King Soopers spokeswoman Kelli McGannon promises that "this store will be glowing come Wednesday." Many products are already on the shelves, and the produce is being stocked today.
But the biggest reason that customers may celebrate the opening? Booze.
Colorado liquor laws currently allows a company to apply for only one drug store/liquor license that it can use for only one store. This means that each of the major grocery chains has had to pick a single location to sell anything stronger than 3.2 beer.
Target sells booze at its store in Glendale, while Safeway uses its liquor license at a spot on Mineral Road in Littleton. This will be King Soopers' first venture into full-strength alcohol sales in Colorado.
The company had been waiting for the right location, and found it at a long-vacant Cub Foods that King Soopers bought four years ago. The space is about 75,000 square feet, including 10,000 square feet for alcohol, and is the first new King Soopers to open in the Denver metro area in about eighteen months.

Ayesha Curry Can Only Get Steph To Cook For Her Once A Year—'If I'm Lucky'
The chef, author and television personality opens up about her husband, Golden State Warriors player Steph Curry, cooking at home.
Amanda Marsalis
By Ana Calderone	· Updated October 26, 2020
This article originally appeared on People.
Even though she's a chef, Ayesha Curry isn't afraid to admit she sometimes dreads coming home after a long day and having to cook for her family.
"I would be a liar to say no I didn't," the mom of two and wife to NBA star Steph Curry, told PEOPLE at the launch of Arla Foods and No Kid Hungry's Live Unprocessed Project. "I have those days when takeout is the direction we go."
Unfortunately, on those days, Ayesha can't necessarily rely on Steph to step up to the stove. "If I'm lucky, like once a year he'll cook me," she laughs. But it's not for a lack of trying. Ayesha says ever since she released her cookbook, The Seasoned Life, the Golden State Warriors player has shown an interest in the kitchen. "He's actually cooked a bunch of recipes out of the book," she says.

Mostly, though, Steph serves as the perfect taste tester. "Because I am a chef, I have to try new things all the time so it's been really good to have my family to be able to be there and test everything out," she says.
One dish he can't seem to get enough of is Ayesha's chicken parmesan. "I like cooking my spice rubbed chicken for him with parsley mint sauce but he just loves chicken parm," she shrugs.
With her show Ayesha's Home Kitchen returning to Food Network on Sunday, viewers can expect to see a lot of their adorable interactions on the small screen. "I have fun with food and everything's easy. There's always a hack, there's always something to make people's lives easier in the show so I'm just excited for people to see that," she says. "I bring a lot of my family in and have fun with them in the kitchen and I feel like that's really special."

Vandals take over virtual Denmark in Minecraft and trash it with American pride.
This is a text about the utopia of a frictionless space defined by perfect reception and its discontents.
In the late eighteenth century a chess-playing automaton toured the courts of Europe. Known as the "Mechanical Turk," the automaton defeated Napoleon and Benjamin Franklin before being exposed as a hoax: hiding in its innards, a human operator was, in fact, moving the chess pieces. In a way, this was a reverse Turing test, predating Turing: a kind of labor in which it is required that humans pass for machines—with all that this passing entails, mainly a forfeiting of needs and rights, and more importantly, a forfeiting of time. In 2005 Amazon resurrected the "Turk" but generalized its principle: the Amazon Mechanical Turk is a crowd-sourcing internet marketplace that "enables individuals and businesses to coordinate the use of human intelligence to perform tasks that computers are currently unable to do."1 See Wikipedia entry on Amazon Mechanical Turk →
Technically speaking, every mechanism usurps a human function. Automation has a political unconscious: behind every attempt at automating the production process lies what Barbrook and Cameron called the "quest for the perfect slave," who will never rebel or ask for a raise.2Richard Barbrook and Andy Cameron, "The Californian Ideology," Mute, vol. 1, no. 3 (Autumn 1995) → Since the first Industrial Revolution, several waves of techno-utopianism have sought to extract slave-like labor from automatic machinery. But whereas technology is usually expected to render work obsolete, to free laborers from the curse of labor, in reality it tends to render workers more pliable and prone to exploitation, and ends up extracting machine-like labor from automated humans.
Automation also breeds technically challenged pockets, cracks, and fissures, which need to be filled by humans. It is within these zones of friction between the social and the economic that one finds mechanical turks and task rabbits: labor that cannot unionize and to whom you do not even owe the courtesy of offering a hot cocoa for shoveling the snow out of your driveway.
In the wake of the USSR's demise, Wired magazine ran a cover story titled "The Long Boom," which claimed that, no longer encumbered by political strife and ideological antagonism, the world would witness unending market-driven prosperity and unabated growth.3 The header read: "We're facing twenty-five years of prosperity, freedom, and a better environment for the whole world. You got a problem with that?" The convergence of media, computing, and telecommunications would inevitably beget freedom and direct democracy. But the fall of the Berlin Wall didn't mark the beginning of a global democratic era—rather, its opposite. As a United States senator once said, the European welfare state was an aberration, an effect of the Cold War; once Communism had been defeated, social democracy became redundant.
Though the internet was hailed as a solution to all kinds of perennial problems—blogs will solve the issue of the corporate consolidation of the press; Bitcoin will solve currency manipulation and rampant corruption in financial markets; social media will fix the democratic deficit—the digital economy entails a shift from a formal to an informal economy, which replaces formal benefits, like salaries, pensions, and social safety nets, with "likes" and barter, while the formal benefits accrue to the very few.4Social theorist Jaron Lanier points to the case of Instagram, sold for a billion dollars but employing only thirteen people, as an example of how the internet is shrinking the economy—clearly, Instagram's "users" are the ones producing its value, yet their work is not formally rewarded. Under the twin pressures of financialization and what is called "the sharing economy," capital has emancipated itself from its direct relationship to labor—which is not to say that it has done away with work; it has just overcome the need to pay formal salaries, along with the claim to formal possessions. As Anthony Marcellini has put it, "every new technological advance means that we get to do for free work that we used to be paid for, and that we get to lease the things that before we were able to own."5 From an unpublished text. The idea of citizenship, with all its rights and social obligations, has faded and given way to the citizen-as-user, and the main function of the state has simply become to guarantee that credit is converted back onto cash payments, no matter how much misery such conversion causes. In Living in the End Times, Slavoj Žižek contends that the (brief) marriage of capitalism and democracy is over, but what seems to be also over is the (rather longer) affair between capitalism and the middle classes. While countries have shifted from being the providers of services (health care, education, welfare) to being the procurers of—mostly financial—services, corporations behave more and more like countries. These new multinational corporate states are not bound by the constraints of physical geography, but this doesn't mean that they are boundless territories. As the digital sphere becomes incorporated, a virtual geography starts to become apparent. In order to better grasp its constitution, we must accept that it does not intend to function as a 1:1 representation of real space,6 When physical states attempt to map themselves in this territory, the failure of this attempt at representation becomes apparent. In March 2014, the Danish Ministry of the Environment released a 1:1 topographical map of the entire country of Denmark in Minecraft, only to have it attacked by American hackers within two weeks. The hackers smuggled game "dynamite" into the map, planted American flags, and razed entire cities.or to become a virtual equivalent to reality, because it is not defined by contiguous space, nor is it defined by the standard markers of the nation-state (race, religion, language, colonization). Rather, it is structured around notions of profit, and it doesn't limit itself to the physical sphere; it actually cuts into both personal space and time, extracting information and monitoring your geolocation in the process of defining itself and its own boundaries. Curtailing the potentiality of the medium, a not-quite-obsolete authority enters into operation. Instead of a seamless World Wide Web, we are faced with the creation of artificial borders: the corporate sandboxing of the digital sphere.7It is no accident that this is the name for it, and a sandbox is where children play.
How do digital borders manifest? In the sandboxing of devices made by Apple, which prohibits the use of third-party apps and penalizes the jailbreaking of iPhones. Or in China's internet policy, which determines the bounds of Google. These invisible borders were also apparent in January 2014 when cellphone users in Ukraine who happened to be near the scene of the Maidan clashes received text messages saying, "Dear subscriber, you are registered as a participant in a mass riot." Willingly or not, these users were about to cross the border between the good and the bad Kiev.
Though social media was hailed as the enabler of the Arab Spring, the millions who took to the streets achieved no political gains, and, in the wake of Snowden's revelations, an even darker picture of a corporate, surveillance-driven internet began to emerge. Displacing and complicating the image of the internet as a space of limitless possibility, the World Wide Web, like the Lacanian mother, was split in two.8 Lacan argues that since babies cannot conceptualize ambivalence, they split the image of the mother into the "good" nurturing mother and the "bad" absent mother.Instead of a good internet, based on communication and community, we are now faced with the bad internet, a tool of corporate surveillance and political punishment. Everywhere, the global circulation of images and commodities goes hand in hand with increasing partitions in the social sphere: segregation, cultural difference, inequality.
If we understand digital space as a territory in its own right, we need to scrutinize how said territory is being mapped. This is not happening with Borgesian fidelity,9"In that Empire, the Art of Cartography attained such Perfection that the map of a single Province occupied the entirety of a City, and the map of the Empire, the entirety of a Province. In time, those Unconscionable Maps no longer satisfied, and the Cartographers Guilds struck a Map of the Empire whose size was that of the Empire, and which coincided point for point with it. The following Generations, who were not so fond of the Study of Cartography as their Forebears had been, saw that that vast map was Useless, and not without some Pitilessness was it, that they delivered it up to the Inclemencies of Sun and Winters. In the Deserts of the West, still today, there are Tattered Ruins of that Map, inhabited by Animals and Beggars; in all the Land there is no other Relic of the Disciplines of Geography." Jorge Luis Borges, March 1946 edition of Los Anales de Buenos Aires, vol. 1, no. 3. as the corporate interests that are trying to describe this territory are not concerned with accuracy or diversity, nor are they interested in the imaginary (in old maps, unknown lands were often inhabited by fantastical beings, like sea serpents, monstrous beasts, or mermaids, whereas the maps of the digital world are being drawn in Silicon Valley, with little regard for mapping unique or differentiating characteristics of space). Instead of imagining how one could inhabit the spaces being mapped, the digital topographers labor to create a homogeneous landscape where a user is a user is a user, disregarding the social and cultural "accidents" in the landscape, and filling the unknowns in the map with replicas of themselves.
In her seminal essay "The Cyborg Manifesto," Donna Haraway argues that the effect of a digital ontology is the effacement of all oppositions. Instead of firm dichotomies, the distinction between "human and animal," between "organism and machine," and between "physical and non-physical," are increasingly leaky; everything becomes "nothing but signals, electromagnetic waves, a section of a spectrum." The digital frontier carried the promise of a postpolitical condition, free of agonism and struggle; and of an economy of abundance instead of an economy of scarcity. But the California dream was a weak utopia: the frictionless space of perfect technological reception is a first-world effect. The conditions in which innovation is produced have nothing to do with the conditions into which it is deployed. Or, to put it in William Gibson's words, "The future is already here. It's just not evenly distributed."10 Quoted in The Economist, December 4, 2003.The many remain as a digital brute force, the garbage men of post-Fordism, a collective headless body performing menial tasks. Either on- or off-line, "slave labor cannot be obtained without somebody being enslaved," and no technological fix will be able to solve our social problems because technology itself engenders them.11 Barbrook and Cameron, "The Californian Ideology." No technology is immaterial or self-sustaining, and its high level of energy consumption degrades both the social and the natural environment; it produces material, animal, and human waste.12 In Baotou, Mongolia, the byproduct of rare earth mineral mining has created a vast toxic lake that spans several kilometers. Baotou's main exports are neodymium—used to produce lightweight magnets for in-ear headphones, cellphone microphones, and computer hard drives—and cerium oxide, mostly used to polish touchscreens on smartphones and tablets. One Kindle consumes the resources of four dozen books and has the carbon footprint of a hundred.
The production of digital/affective devices, which double as control mechanisms, is dependent on the decimation of every digitally underrepresented region of the world. As this new geography displaces the old, the digital subject becomes more visible than the physical subject. While the circulation of celebrities, luxury goods, liberal professionals, tourists, and financial flows occupies the whole field of visibility, refugees, seasonal workers, immigrants, and illegal aliens are rendered invisible.
What does the future look like for those lacking digital representation? And what does it look like for those who are overrepresented—the digitally obese? If the conditions under which I exist are too precarious for me to be considered a user in this new landscape, I may be destined for extinction, or I may already be extinct, part of a barren, obsolete present that will soon be discontinued.
But it may be that the constitution of this subject is not yet fully graspable, and that in the rush to create the conditions for its viability, we have neglected to generate the tools to understand the atomized psychological space that she inhabits. If subjectivity was a function of private property, what happens when all the frameworks of ownership are incorporated?13 General Motors and John Deere have argued that copyright law cannot conflate ownership of a vehicle with ownership of the underlying computer software. In response, lawmakers in Minnesota and New York have introduced "Fair Repair" legislation that asserts an owner's right to repair electronic equipment they've purchased. Even though the digital obeys physical laws that locate it within the material world, digital bodies are not fully recognized, and there is an ever-widening gap between how the treatment of a subject is prescribed, and how the subject is constructed. Take the example of the person who is institutionalized and has to surrender her digital devices so that she will be forced to interact only with her real friends, even though her relationships are at this moment dependent on her being able to reach them through the very same devices that are being taken away. This atomized space, which has opened up because of our reliance on technology, imbues devices with an affective quality, akin to that of transitional objects to a subject whose hetero-affective other is not necessarily human—the "selfie" is no longer analogous to a self-portrait, but functions rather as some kind of degraded mirror stage for this child of technology that sees the internet as her mother.
The logic of old-media temporality was color-coded: contemporary Africa was black and white, just like Dickensian England. To boot: the third world's present belongs to the first world's past. In the diffuse world of post-Fordist economies, all matter is in permanent motion, and all temporalities are spatialized. Online, every social form gets to have a second life; everything is an image; and all images are up for grabs. The Space Race has been revived as an extension of digital incorporation, but the fantasy of a cultural totality is full of cracks, and the increasingly pervasive vectors of global communication are by far more chaotic than one would care to suggest. Clerics in the UAE have chosen to distance themselves from this frontier narrative, issuing a fatwa that prohibits Muslims from joining any Mars expedition.14 The UAE has deemed that there is no righteous reason for humans to travel to Mars; were Muslims to perish attempting the trip, their death would be considered akin to suicide. Reportedly, around five hundred Saudis and other Arabs applied online for the Mars One mission (the first prospective martian colony, the brainchild of a Dutch Company).The US Department of Defense regularly posts drone-captured footage on its official YouTube channel; known as "drone porn," these videos show recorded attacks and targeted killings. One could point to the reciprocal relationship they establish with the executions—typically beheadings—posted by fundamentalist insurgent groups: the more "drone porn" treats human casualties as metadata, the more gruesome Islamic State videos become. Rather than images of asymmetrical warfare, we could say that these are images at war (literally, with each other) over the image of the digital body. Although it is not possible to map the physical self onto the digital self, one could perhaps say that, in the guise of a Hegelian totality, an essence manifests itself in its alienation: every phenomenon is also defined by what it negates, falsifies, denies.
The internet doesn't exist, but its effects are real—our electronic highways are littered with roadkill. Marx's greatest achievement—unparalleled to this day—was to render capital's operations visible. At present, conspiracy theory is the poor person's critique of ideology. Though optical technologies produce images of virtually everything, the greatest problem is opacity. As the visual became fully mediated, technology severed the link between image and representation.
Is it possible that, as Hito Steyerl suggests, the gap between the two forms of representation—political on the one hand, cultural on the other—is a constitutive feature of communication technologies and social media? Are the mechanisms that enable cultural participation simultaneously generating political exclusion?15 See Tony Wood, "Reserve Armies of the Imagination," New Left Review 82 (July–August 2013) →
Up until now a case has been made for the idea that the technical takes precedence over the social. But the internet is political before being technical. The consolidation of financial vectors runs parallel to the total disintegration of social bonds: the more integrated the algorithmic mapping, the more scattered social relations become. Across a dispersed marketplace, most of us are barred from all but a consumptive relation to "the global village." The idea of a cultural totality (the internet as a single technological entity) displaces social erosion, but what appears as the medium's phenomenology is in fact its ideology. The image of the internet is the degraded cipher for the total logic of capital.
Maybe the transition from analog to digital media can be seen as an aesthetic rather than an ontological problem. Representing nature as spectacle and the biosphere as totality,16 To paraphrase Kerstin Stakemeier, "Lunch Bytes: On Art and Digital Media" conference, Haus der Kulturen der Welt, Berlin. the "postinternet condition" can perhaps be best described as a style17As suggested recently by Philipp Ekardt at the "Lunch Bytes: On Art and Digital Media" conference, Haus der Kulturen der Welt, Berlin.: what Emily Apter has called "oneworldedness"18 Emily Apter, "On Oneworldedness: Or Paranoia as a World System," American Literary History, vol. 18, no. 2 (Summer 2006): 365–389. (another name for Empire), or what Diedrich Diederichsen has described as a "vulgar Latourian fairy-tale," or an "aesthetics of affectivity"19 "Lunch Bytes" conference.coupled with a mobilization of nature at the service of a human agenda—a common theme in Romanticism, which is about to be intensified by the introduction of the Internet of Things—conflated with Warholian currency (appropriation, debasement, iconophilia) and symbolist themes and tropes (liquidity, the over-humanization of nature, existential ennui, pastiche, esotericism, disaffection). What we call "third nature" can also be seen as reified history, while what masquerades as convention is actually allegory.
Once nature has disappeared, everything becomes a human sign, but whether the convergence of computing with bioengineering will bring about a "technological singularity" or result in a digital theme park is yet unclear. By 2020 there will be nearly twenty-six billion devices connected to the Internet of Things—twenty-six billion talking toasters, probably equipped with endearing interfaces—but the sublation of nature into culture will coincide with the consolidation of corporate ownership. The more technology merges with biology the more it becomes opaque qua technology; the more opaque this technology, the more transparent it renders its users. Our object-world will become ever more animated and lively, only that toaster will no longer be truly ours.
In spite of the political, economic, and ecological crisis of the last few years, the new social forms and categories that have emerged have failed to constitute themselves politically, and it's hard to fathom what form change could take. In the absence of a collective horizon, the new (second) Industrial Revolution might not lead to the future but to the past, to a Victorian phantasmagoria of sorts, supplemented by consumer gadgetry and semiotic fetishism. A place akin to the Zone in Andrei Tarkovsky's Stalker, a sentient environment able to materialize all your dreams—but with a twist.

Q: Continuity of $xy^3/(x^2+y^6)$ at $(x,y)=(0,0)$ Let $f(x, y) = \frac{xy^3}{x^2+y^6}$ if $(x,y) \ne (0,0)$  and $f(0,0) = 0$.
Is this function continuous at $(x,y) = (0,0)$?
I believe that it is, because the function appears to be approaching $0$ as $(x, y) \to (0,0)$, and the hole is filled there, but I'm not sure how to prove that the limit is $0$.

A: if we take the path $x=my^3$ we have:
$$\lim_{y\to 0}\frac{my^6}{m^2y^6+y^6}=\frac{m}{m^2+1}$$
which depends on $m$. Hence limit does not exist.

A: What happens when you take the limit along the path $y = x^{1/3}$?

A: Let $x=y^3$ therefore we have
$$\lim\limits_{(x,y)\to(0,0)}\frac{xy^3}{x^2+y^6}=\lim\limits_{y\to0}\frac{y^6}{2y^6}=\frac{1}{2} \ \ \ (1)$$ and if we consider $x=y$ then
$$\lim\limits_{(x,y)\to(0,0)}\frac{xy^3}{x^2+y^6}=0  \ \ \ \ (2)$$ so that from (1) and (2)  we see that limit don't exits. Therefore the function is not continuous.

A: Just to mention, that an important fact of this example is that for every $v\in\mathbb{R}^2$ which is not $0$ then $\frac{\partial{f}}{\partial{v}}(0,0)=0$ but as wrote above, the function is even not continous at the origin

The Pantera was the result of an Argentinian racing driver (Alejandro De Tomaso), Italian engineering, and American muscle. The styling was handled by Tom Tjarda while Giampaolo Dallara was responsible for the structural design. Looking at the vehicle, it greatly resembles that of the Lamborghini offspring. The reasoning for this resemblance could be attributed to Giampaolo Dallara who was also aided in the designing of the Lamborghini Miura.
The wing on the back was optional. If used, it would help by providing downforce and increase stability, however, it also slowed the vehicle down and decreased the visibility out the rear-view mirror.
The engine was a V8 borrowed from the Ford Mustang and the 5-speed transaxle was that of the Ford GT40. The design of the car was intended to be simple. The reasoning was to mass-produce these easy-to-assemble cars. An ambitious goal of 5,000 vehicles a year was set. Ford aided with some of the financing. Their part of the deal was to retain distribution rights in the US while DeTomaso could have the European market. Ford was the first to back out, after energy crises were becoming more common in the 1970's, coupled with the poor build quality of the vehicle. DeTomaso continued but in limited production.
