Russia Sounds "All-Out Nuclear War" Alarm As Disney Displays "We Love You Satan" Children
A deeply troubling new Security Council (SC) report circulating in the Kremlin today first noting Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov warning this morning that any conflict between nuclear states, even if it starts with conventional weapons, is "likely to escalate into an all-out nuclear war", says he then proclaimed that former relations between Russia and the socialist Western colonial powers "will not be restored", and declared: "If, and when, at some point in time, our Western neighbors and former partners suddenly become interested in somehow restoring joint work on European security, then restoration will not work…Because restoration means that was before…But there will be no business as usual".
In a further forever fracturing of relations between Russia and the godless socialist Western colonial powers, this report notes, the Federation Council approved a bill this morning that imposes a complete ban on LGBTQ, pedophilia, and sex-change propaganda, which will become law when signed by President Putin—and is a move to protect Russian children against socialist Western colonial demonic ideology joined by the Just Tasty restaurant company in Russia, known formally as McDonalds, that just announced it will replace toys in its Happy Meals with wholesome books and puzzles.
While Russia moves to protect its children from demonic ideology, this report continues, over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend in America it saw entertainment giant Disney announcing it's projected to lose $100-million over the failure of its demonic pro-LGBTQ child indoctrination cartoon movie—an announcement quickly followed by Disney airing a Christmas movie that beyond shockingly displayed young children holding up words to spell out the phrase "We Love You Satan".
Joining the demonic indoctrination of young children by Disney, this report details, this past week it saw the socialist Western colonial luxury fashion house Balenciaga running an ad campaign with baby children holding teddy bears wearing sexual bondage gear—a demonic ad campaign Balenciaga attempted to blame on others, but which experts proved they knew about and approved.
At the same time Disney and Balenciaga are demonically indoctrinating young children, this report notes, the socialist Democrat Party iron-grip controlled State of California was exposed releasing a tsunami of child sex offenders long before they served their full prison sentences—and virtually unnoticed by Americans, is that all of these demonic acts are occurring at the same time Scotland lowered its age of sexual consent to 16—France lowered its age of sexual consent to 15—Germany joined a number of Eastern European nations to lower its age of sexual consent to 14—while in New Zealand, their radical socialist Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern just declared that her government will draft legislation to change the voting age to 16, after a landmark supreme court ruling that the existing age of 18 was discriminatory and breached the human rights of young people.
Virtually alone in keeping the American people informed about the spread of socialist demonic ideology to sexually indoctrinate children, this report continues, is Fox News, about whom the just published article "Fox News Channel Beats CNN And MSNBC Combined In November Cable News Ratings" reveals: "For a month featuring the hotly contested mid-term elections, Fox News sailed to victory in the key November ratings race, outperforming the combined ratings of CNN and MSNBC—for the fourth straight month"—a revelation quickly joined by the article "CNN Formally Announces 'Hundreds' of Christmas Season Layoffs", wherein it cites Chris Licht, CNN's hapless new chief of lies, stating: "I recently described this process as a gut punch", and notes about him: "Not once during Licht's tenure has CNN broken a consequential news story that didn't later turn out to be a lie".
The dire consequences of an American media landscape divided into warring factions, this report concludes, is best exampled in new revelations like: "When asked, "How much do you trust that America's elections are fair and accurate?" only 43.2% of respondents said they "strongly trust" the election system…A majority, 56.8%, expressed concerns about the system, with 17% saying they "somewhat trust" it, 17.9% saying they "somewhat distrust" it, and 21.9% saying they "strongly distrust it""—"The rise of woke politics has undermined public confidence in the brass…The Reagan Institute releases an annual survey of public attitudes on national defense, and this year only 48% reported having "a great deal of confidence" in the U.S. military…That's down from 70% in 2018"—and—"A study titled "Trend in Loaded Handgun Carrying Among Adult Handgun Owners in the United States, 2015‒2019" found the number of law-abiding US adults carrying handguns nearly doubled from 9 million in 2015 to 16 million in 2019"—all of which are revelations of divisions history has long proven shows a nation is on the verge of coming apart at the seams, that even the most seemingly inconsequential spark can ignite, and of which the many that could occur, the deliberate harming of children will unleash a firestorm.

Automation: it's inevitable and it's here. As humanity's technological capability continues enhancing, we are developing smarter ways to make our lives easier.
We now stand at the point where robotics and automation are on the cusp of a revolution. A revolution that will radically change every aspect of our society. The problem is we are nowhere near ready.
In the awesome futurist video 'Humans Need Not Apply' CGP Grey explains that just as human created "mechanical muscles" during the Industrial revolution, we have now created "mechanical minds" which are poised to achieve a similar revolution.
We can already see computers replacing those with manual, low skilled jobs. But, no one is truly safe, even white-collar and professional jobs are at risk of being replaced by robots or software.
As robotics becomes cheaper and grow in sophistication, they only need to do the job better than a human in order for it to be beneficial for a business to replace its human workforce.
However, despite the fact millions of jobs are at risk of replacement, this is not an issue on the lips of many. A much quoted study by Oxford University estimates that 47% of jobs could be automated within 20 years. This is a huge and rapid change that could become reality. Simply by talking about the issue more we are raising awareness and making people alert to this change. So what can we do about it?
One potential way of dealing with automation is to try to resist. This has been the approach adopted so far by the Trade Union movement and they have had some success – the London Underground still have drivers, even though the DLR has run without one since it opened in 1987. However, as CGP Grey points out, this is an exception, almost every time unions have tried to fight technological advancement, they've lost. The fact that supermarkets are gradually replacing checkout staff with self-serving machines demonstrates this.
Another possible option is to introduce a Universal Basic Income (UBI). This is an idea which is already being experimented and the Green Party is strongly advocating it. The concept is simple, but bold: pay every citizen the same amount each month so they have enough to live off. This would be a major change to society and would see the end of the welfare state.
The idea does have some significant merits. If you're stuck in a job where you were being treated unfairly, UBI would allow you to challenge your boss without fear of financial hardship – it would always be there to fall back on. However, one counter argument is that by introducing UBI, it becomes impossible to maintain open borders. The options would be to create two types of citizen or to close the borders, which in the post-Brexit world, might not sound like a ridiculous idea.
But what is Labour doing about this? Well, Tom Watson's 'The Future of Work Commission' is already looking at this issue in depth. Fingers crossed it will provide some practical solutions which Labour can put to the electorate.
Despite this, I believe we are not as alert to this change as we should be. Especially as this 'revolution' looks set to disproportionately affect the UK's youth. Many young people rely on low-skilled and manual jobs to support themselves, whether that's working during your studies or filling a gap in-between jobs; the fact that bar staff, baristas and supermarket workers are at risk of being replaced by machines erodes a vital lifeline from our generation and the ones to come. The future's coming and we're simply not prepared.


The first time you see Joey Diaz, and possibly hear him speak, you might find him intimidating. Even for a journalist whose job is to interview him and give him some publicity, I was more nervous than a teenage boy at his prom. The reason? When I called him to do an interview, I got his voice mail. Needless to say, it was brash, straight-forward and filled with a thick, New Jersey accent. Add to that, I knew what he looked like from a press photo that I had to accommodate with the story.

Halloween rats set loose in Old Town

SAIC alum creates rat parade in Chicago
By Jesse Stein
Are you stumped for an idea for your Halloween costume, but relish the chance to partake in a bit of public spectacle? Ben Fain's The Rat City Parade float, at the Annual North Halsted Halloween Parade in Old Town, just might be that moment of stardom you didn't even know you needed.
The Rat City Parade float is an initiative by artist Ben Fain, a SAIC alum who now teaches in the Sculpture Department at the School. In 2007 he proposed the general theme of "rats" for the 2008 Annual North Halsted Halloween Parade. The theme, which happens to fit neatly with the Chinese zodiac Year of the Rat, was approved by the Triangle Neighbors Association and the North Halsted Area Merchants Association, who have applied the rat theme to the entire parade.
The neighborhood parade, now in its twelfth year, takes place on October 31, and starts at Belmont and North Halsted, heading north to Addison. One of the most popular Halloween parades in Chicago, it attracts over 10,000 spectators, and participation is open to any adult, child or pet, who wishes to dress up and parade through Old Town, provided they register before the event. According to the Triangle Neighbors Association, this year participants are encouraged to consider costumes related to "everything from Ratatouille to The Rat Pack to Rugrats."
Why rats? "I am in interested in the metaphorical value of the rat, in that they are pestilent, carry disease, live in their own feces, and represent an obvious oral/anal connotation," said Fain. "Freud argued that we hate the rat because they remind us of ourselves—they are insatiable and highly adaptable."
Fain is responsible for a specific float in the 2008 parade, The Rat City Parade, which will involve 70 performers dressed in elaborate and frightening rat costumes. The general effect, according to Fain, is intended to be "nightmarish" and "terrifying yet inexplicable." In addition to a massive, self-propelled float in the form of a moving bedroom scene—Homecoming garlands and all— The Rat City Parade will also feature a large, spinning pizza in the shape of a pyramid, and will include a live performance by Chicago drumming group the Bucket Boys. Fain is working with a choreographer to orchestrate the rat performers in a set of movements and gestures based on observations of rats, insect-swarms and oscillating, wave-like motions of sub-atomic particles.
The Rat City Parade is one of several processional and ritual-style artworks and productions that Fain has produced over the past few years. He commented, "I think parades are one of the last remaining positive rituals we have left." Fain's artistic practice is based around finding alternative ways to use public space and involve communal participation, challenging viewers while simultaneously allowing work to be accessible to broader audiences.
When asked about what it takes to be a rat volunteer in The Rat City Parade, Fain said, "It doesn't take any experience to do it and I would love to get as many people involved as possible…Costumes are limited (to 70) … The performance involves a lot of running, but I think it will be so much fun, and hopefully slightly terrifying."
Anyone who is interested in participating in Ben Fain's The Rat City Parade should contact Sarah Febbraro, ratcityparade@gmail.com. The first mandatory meeting will take place on October 5, 5 p.m. at Alogon Gallery, 1049 N. Paulina Street, #3R. Participants must attend at least one of the two rehearsals, on Saturday, October 26, 1 to 4 p.m., and Wednesday, October 29, 6 to 9 p.m.
The 12th Annual North Halsted Halloween Parade takes place on 31 October, from 7 p.m., starting at North Halsted Avenue at Belmont, extending up Halsted to Addison.

When it comes to navigation and communication for the traditional hot air ballon we rely on state of the art global positioning systems and electronic flight recording.
Also our inflation fan is state of the art: One click is enough to change from rolling to parking position with automatic wheel brake application. An idea that has been frequently copied. The new ladder frame construction ensures low vibrations and thereby a long life for the fan. The powerful and easy to start 9 or 13 HP Honda engine and plastic propeller provide high inflation air pressure. Alternatively we offer a high performance carbon fibre propeller for even more airflow and increased pressure. As a metter of course it is equipped with a stainless steel frame.
Schroeder Airpusher in size 1.800 - 5.000 cbm and 5.000 - 8.500 cbm made powder-coated of high quality stainless steel, available in various colors.

OMG! California Wants To Tax Text Messages (SMH)
Jeff Dunetz December 13, 2018
I know what you are thinking, AYKMWTS? But no this is true. California will tax anything, and to prove it they are looking at taxing text messages to help pay for cell phone service for poor folks. The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) is looking to vote on the proposal as early as late December, but until then the wireless industry is working hard to defeat the proposed tax (a copy of the tax proposal document is embedded below).
Per Mercury News:
"It's a dumb idea," said Jim Wunderman, president of the Bay Area Council business-sponsored advocacy group. "This is how conversations take place in this day and age, and it's almost like saying there should be a tax on the conversations we have."
It's unclear how many individual consumers would be asked to pay their wireless carrier for texting services under the proposal. But it likely would be billed as a flat surcharge per customer — one of those irksome fees at the bottom of your wireless bill — not a fee per text.
Business groups, including the Bay Area Council, California Chamber of Commerce and Silicon Valley Leadership Group and others opposing the idea, calculated the new charges for wireless consumers could total about $44.5 million a year.
But they add that under the regulators' proposal the charge could be applied retroactively for five years — which they call "an alarming precedent" — and could amount to a bill of more than $220 million for California consumers.
This proposal puts cell phone companies at a competitive disadvantage as other texting platforms such as Facebook and/or Messenger, twitter, and others, remain free.
The Federal Communications Commission is expected to affirm that Wednesday at a meeting, the CTIA said, which would confirm that the state utilities commission "has no authority to impose surcharges on text messaging."
Beyond that, the wireless industry argues a surcharge on texting would put carriers at a disadvantage with competing messaging services that wouldn't be hit with the new fees, such as Facebook's Messenger and WhatsApp, Apple's iMessage and Microsoft's Skype. Those kinds of services account for "almost triple the volume" of wireless carriers' share of the more than 3 trillion text messages sent in 2018 alone, according to the CTIA.
"Subjecting wireless carriers' text messaging traffic to surcharges that cannot be applied to the lion's share of messaging traffic and messaging providers is illogical, anticompetitive, and harmful to consumers," the CTIA said in its filings.
In a letter to commissioners urging them to drop the plan, business groups and other critics added that wireless customers already pay a surcharge for the Public Purpose Programs (PPP), which they said "are healthy and well-funded, with nearly $1 billion in the budget."
The CPUC is already taxing the phone call part of cell phone service. Fortune Magazine explains the reason the CPUC is looking at squeezing revenue out of text messaging that PPP revenue is down because people have changed their manner of communication from voice calls to texting.
As mobile phone users have shifted their usage patterns away from voice calls, voice call revenues for PPP have dropped by about a third, while the budget for subsidizing poorer users has risen by almost half. So California's PUC is exploring its options and, as texts share infrastructure with voice calls — even if the medium is different — it estimates it could raise $44.5 million a year with the change. Applied retroactively it could amount to a bill of more than $220 million for California consumers.
IMHO this proposal is nuts, but TBH this is California where crazy rules the day. If they tax texting what's next? A tax on flushing toilets? FFS! And these California voters keep electing these idiots who keep taking their money–why?

La membrana epiretinica o pucker maculare (dall'inglese pucker, "grinza", "ruga") è una patologia dell'occhio che consiste nello sviluppo di una sottile membrana traslucida sopra la macula (la zona centrale della retina fondamentale per la visione). Quando tale membrana si contrae e si arriccia, causa una deformazione e una progressiva distorsione della macula stessa.

Sintomi
Al momento della comparsa della malattia si verifica una lieve distorsione delle immagini e, soprattutto, dei testi scritti con caratteri più piccoli (le righe appariranno ondulate). Quando la trazione esercitata dalla membrana sulla macula aumenta, ci si accorge che la lettura dei testi diventa sempre più difficile. L'evoluzione della malattia porta, infine, alla visione di una macchia che impedisce la visione centrale.

Diagnosi
La diagnosi viene fatta grazie all'esame del fondo oculare, che permette di visualizzare la membrana. Tuttavia, la conferma deve essere ottenuta tramite OCT, esame con cui si valuta l'entità della trazione: aiuta a controllare nel tempo l'evoluzione della patologia.

STEM School's contract renewed for five years
By Alex DeWind
STEM School Highlands Ranch's contract was renewed for five years, contingent upon multiple conditions, at a special Douglas County School District Board of Education meeting June 29, a day before the K-12 charter school's contract was set to expire.

"It feels great," Penny Eucker, the school's executive director, said. "I had high confidence we would prevail, but it's nice to resolve it here."
The school board had listened to nearly three hours of public comment 11 days earlier as the board considered rescinding a prior three-year contract offer and offering a one-year extension.
The resolution, introduced June 14 and considered at a June 18 board meeting, would have essentially tacked on one year to the school's current, five-year contract, giving the district more time to address a list of concerns with the charter school that serves roughly 1,800 students and to negotiate a new contract. The resolution said the May 7 school shooting that left one student dead and eight others injured raised questions about the school's safety and security.
Board members said that the newly negotiated contract strikes a good balance between accountability and the school's success.
"It is our sworn duty to hold any school accountable for the health, best education practices and safety of its students, and I believe this contract is that," board member Anne-Marie Lemieux said.
Board member Anthony Graziano added: "I would like to call out all the outstanding, great compromises made by all parties, to present a really mutually beneficial resolution and agreement, one that will deliver a full, five-year agreement to the STEM community to improve their financial stability and allow them to continue to achieve their educational achievement objectives."
After the June 18 meeting, board members felt that the public didn't understand that a renewal of the contract, not a termination of the contract, was up for discussion.
"I just want to be really clear that we never had any intention of shutting down this great school," Lemieux said.
The school's safety policies have been in the public eye since the May 7 shooting. Two STEM students were arrested on suspicion of carrying out the attack. A private security guard allegedly fired at a Douglas County deputy and wounded a student.
The school did not have a resource officer, insteady employing private security. The Douglas County Sheriff's Office declined to renew a contract for a resource officer before the 2018-19 school year.
Per the 45-page contract approved by the school board June 29, STEM will have to commit to a number of stipulations, including developing a parent complaint policy, implementing a whistleblower policy, conducting annual evaluations of leadership and staff, and regularly reporting to the district on finances and safety assessments. The school is required to contract with local law enforcement to provide an SRO to the high school program and hire a private security officer for the middle and elementary school programs.
For enrollment, preference will be given to students who live in Douglas County, the contract states.
STEM is also required to conduct regular staff, parent and student satisfaction surveys and report the findings to DCSD's Choice Programming Office, and hire and retain licensed special education teachers and mental health professionals "in a manner that meets or exceeds District staffing ratios," the contract says.
The full contract is available here . If STEM does not comply with the renewal conditions, the contract will be shortened to three years.
"We have a lot of work to do," Eucker said.
The packed boardroom of parents and students at the June 29 special meeting were elated to know that their school was approved for five more years.
"It's taught me so many technological skills," student Aidan Frey said. "It's the best school."

Take Shelter Review [Sundance 2011]
By Blake Griffin 9 years ago
Review of: Take Shelter Review [Sundance 2011]
Reviewed by: Blake Griffin
Last modified:July 24, 2013
Tight editing and pace make for a careful and thoughtful film that is a very strong piece of cinema.
Take Shelter, the sophomore effort from writer/director Jeff Nichols, represents a major step forward from Nichols's first film, Shotgun Stories. Shotgun Stories, a very good movie in its own right, showcases Nichols's particular skill for building and sustaining tension and capturing the nuances of interpersonal relationships. But where Shotgun Stories at times feels aloof and seems to linger too long on some scenes, Take Shelter is tightly edited and intimately involves the viewer in the lives of its characters.
Michael Shannon plays Curtis LaForche, a young husband and father who leads a modest small-town life with his wife and daughter. He has a home and a job that provides for his family's needs. But Curtis has begun suffering from increasingly vivid and disturbing nightmares that appear to predict a massive natural disaster looming on the horizon. Worse still, they may be indicative of the onset of mental illness, which runs in Curtis's family. So Curtis begins taking drastic measures in an attempt to ensure the future security of his wife and daughter.
As noted above, Nichols is a skilled writer and director. He has crafted a story that is personal and heartbreaking, even as tension steadily mounts to a powerful crescendo. The nightmare sequences, in particular, are harrowing and effectively express the anxiety that Curtis experiences in his day-to-day existence. Shannon has made a career out of playing larger-than-life psychotics, and it's refreshing to see how nicely he acquits himself to playing a suffering everyman who is quietly struggling to come to terms with how little control he has over his life.
But the real revelation here is Jessica Chastain, who is terrific as Curtis's ultra-capable spouse, Samantha. Rather than playing Samantha as nagging and exasperated wife, Chastain infuses her with a sense of purpose as she tries to hold the small family together in the midst of her husband's increasingly erratic behavior. I suspect that we will see great things from her in the future. (She apparently has a prominent role in Terrence Malick's upcoming The Tree of Life.)
I do want to note that audiences appear to view the final scene in this movie as a twist in the spirit of M. Night Shyamalan. Such a literal interpretation ignores the careful work that Nichols has put into the film to that point. When you consider what has come before it, and where the characters have ultimately arrived, the scene becomes a masterstroke in a powerful, finely-crafted piece of filmmaking.

Backers of new Stillwater bridge make their case in D.C.
A coalition of local city officials and residents are in Washington D.C. to meet with lawmakers and lobby for speedy passage of a bill that would clear the way for the new bridge.
Bill in Congress to cap cost of Stillwater bridge threatens project
A bill in Congress would limit the use of federal funds for the crossing at $574 million. That's significantly lower than the project's estimated $700 million price tag. Democratic Congressman Keith Ellison says he's not against building the bridge but says the price is just too high. The group lobbying for the crossing says that cost also includes highway improvements in both Minnesota and Wisconsin.
30 lawmakers in Minnesota, Wisconsin sign letter opposing Stillwater bridge
The state legislators signed a letter to federal lawmakers opposing a plan to build a $700 million bridge that would replace the current lift bridge. Republican Rep. Michele Bachmann and Gov. Dayton have spoken out in favor of the bridge. The legislators who signed the letter say the money could be better spent elsewhere.
Movement begins for new Hastings bridge
The process of moving the bridge span for the new Hastings bridge over the Mississippi River has begun. The 545-foot span will be lifted into place next Wednesday. Residents gathered along the Mississippi Friday to watch the historic event.
Stillwater Lift Bridge to close for 4 months
The Stillwater Lift Bridge will close Monday for four months while MnDot crews make repairs. The bridge will not reopen until late December. The lift span will open to boat traffic on Sundays from Oct. 15 through Nov. 5 and will also not open again until late December.
100 Central Minn. Girl Scouts travel to D.C. for 100th anniversary event
Central Minnesota's Girl Scout troops will be well represented at the 100th anniversary of the organization Saturday in Washington, D.C. About 100 local Girl Scouts will appear on behalf of more than 35 troops. About 200,000 people are expected to attend the Girl Scouts Rock the Mall sing-a-long event at the National Mall.
Decades of debate could be near end as Stillwater bridge bill moves to U.S. Senate floor
A Senate committee earlier overwhelmingly approved the bill sponsored by Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar. An identical bill is pending on the House floor. The proposed span would replace the historic lift bridge, which has seen traffic congestion and structural repairs increase over the years.
New exhibit honors I-35W bridge collapse rescue workers
A new exhibit opened Saturday at the Firefighters Hall and Museum in northeast Minneapolis to commemorate the efforts of rescue workers after the Interstate 35W bridge collapse on Aug. 1, 2007. Titled "81 Minutes: After the Bridge Collapse," the exhibit chronicles the training that happened ahead of the collapse and the collaboration between firefighters and residents after.
5 years after I-35W bridge collapse, bridge repair program halfway complete
Minnesota is on track to meet a 2018 deadline to repair or replace 136 bridges that have been identified as having the most serious deficiencies, as part of a 10-year, $2.5 billion program. State lawmakers created the program just a few months after the I-35W bridge plunged into the Mississippi River during the peak of evening rush hour on Aug. 1, 2007, killing 13 people and injuring more than 100 others.

Following the events of the SWORD ART ONLINE Alicization anime series, SWORD ART ONLINE Alicization Lycoris finds Kirito in a mysterious but familiar virtual world, "Underworld," where A.I.s behave like humans. As players take control of Kirito, they will relive heart-pounding scenes from the series through intense combat. Players will also encounter fan favorite characters including Eugeo, Alice, Administrator, and many more. A wide world awaits Kirito and his friends in this exciting adaptation to the SWORD ART ONLINE Alicization series.

After graduating from the University of California, Berkeley in 1950 with a degree in art, Francis moved to Paris, where he would be named by Time magazine in 1956 as "the hottest American painter in Paris these days." While in Paris, Francis developed close friendships with fellow American artist Joan Mitchell and the Canadian artist Jean Paul Riopelle. In the 1970s to 1980s, Francis was working with a lush and vibrant palette and painting with elongated forms, drips and splatters. This is a classic gestural painting by Francis, full of energy and intensity. The multitude of colours, diverse textures and varying placements of paint are typical of his 1980s acrylic works on paper.

Sir Charles Wyndham (23 March 1837 – 12 January 1919), né Charles Culverwell, was an English actor and theatre proprietor. Wyndham's Theatre in London is named after him, and he also built the New Theatre (now the Noël Coward Theatre) nearby.

Wyndham's family intended him for a medical career, and he studied medicine while enthusiastically engaging in amateur theatricals in his spare time. Torn between medicine and the stage, he spent three years in the US as a surgeon in the Union army in the American Civil War and on two occasions acted unsuccessfully on the New York stage. After returning to Britain and establishing himself as an actor he made further trips to the US between 1882 and 1910, playing in theatres all around the country.

In London, Wyndham became known for his comic skills, both in light comedy and farce. He took over the management of the Criterion Theatre in 1876 and remained in charge there for more than 20 years. "Criterion farce" became a familiar feature of the West End theatre, usually risqué French pieces toned down to avoid shocking the Victorian British audience. Later, Wyndham was known for his appearances in period costume dramas, most of all T. W. Robertson's David Garrick, which he revived frequently. Among the authors who wrote for him were W. S. Gilbert, F. C. Burnand and Henry Arthur Jones. Oscar Wilde wrote The Importance of Being Earnest with Wyndham in mind, but circumstances prevented him from playing in it.

Wyndham commissioned two London theatres, both designed by W. G. R. Sprague: Wyndham's, opened in 1899, and the New, which opened four years later. He retired in 1913, and died at his London house in 1919, aged 81.

Life and career

Early years

Wyndham was born in Liverpool on 23 March 1837, the second son of Major Richard Culverwell (c. 1820–1860) and his wife, Mary Ann. He had one brother, who did not survive childhood, and three sisters. Biographies published in Wyndham's lifetime state that Culverwell was a doctor, but in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography (2011) Michael Read writes:

Wyndham went to boarding-schools in England, Scotland, Germany and France. In Scotland he acquired the taste for amateur theatricals, and in Paris he frequented the Comédie-Française and the Théâtre du Palais-Royal. The former was known for its classical style and the latter had a long tradition of farce; both were a formative influence on his acting. He studied medicine at King's College, London, and at the College of Surgeons and the Peter Street Anatomical School in Dublin, and despite the counter-attractions of amateur acting and theatre-going he qualified as MRCS in 1857 and took his Doctor of Medicine degree at the University of Giessen in 1859. In 1860 he married Emma Silberrad (c. 1837–1916), a member of a German family that was both aristocratic and affluent. Read comments, "By marrying into this house of merchant princes Wyndham was spared the fear of destitution that plagued other actors".

In February 1862 Wyndham, who had by then adopted his stage surname, made his professional debut at the Royalty Theatre as the juvenile lead opposite the young, but already experienced, Ellen Terry. Her acting was praised; his was not. At the time, it was the practice of some London theatre managers to engage amateurs to appear in prominent roles in otherwise professional companies, and The Examiner took Wyndham for such an amateur. He remained in the Royalty's company for six months, and after his inauspicious debut he began to attract excellent reviews. In the farce Grandfather Whitehead he won praise from the theatrical newspaper The Era, which found him "a very promising Light Comedian" and his playing "as easy, natural and perfect as it need be". In a later review during the season The Era said:

Still undecided between a theatrical and medical career, but too adventurous in spirit to relish the idea of becoming a family doctor, Wyndham travelled to the US later in 1862, determined to become a medical officer in the Union army in the American Civil War. The military authorities hesitated to sign him up, but he successfully persisted and served until the war was nearly over. During breaks from his military service he made two unsuccessful appearances on the stage in New York, first in a company led by John Wilkes Booth (later the assassin of Abraham Lincoln), and then in Mrs John Wood's troupe.

Professional advance, 1865–1873
In 1865 Wyndham returned to England. He resumed his British stage career in a leading role in a play he had written, My Lady's Guardian, which opened at the Theatre Royal, Manchester in July. The local correspondent of The Era was moderately complimentary about the play and said that Wyndham "possesses innate talent as a light comedian". When Wyndham took the production to Liverpool the same paper described him as "one of the most accomplished actors we have seen for a long time". His success in this and other provincial productions enabled him to gain a West End engagement the following year.

Wyndham joined the company of the Royalty in May 1866 under the management of Patty Oliver. He played Sir Arthur Lascelles in Maddison Morton's well-known play, All That Glitters Is Not Gold, given as a supporting piece to a new extravaganza. Of his later roles during the season, the most prominent was as the smuggler, Hatchett, in F. C. Burnand's new and immensely popular burlesque on Douglas Jerrold's nautical comedy, Black-Eyed Susan, with Oliver and Nelly Bromley. Burnand was impressed by Wyndham – his dancing as much as his acting.

In 1867 Wyndham joined the company at the  St James's Theatre, where he acted with Henry Irving for the first time. In September and October of the same year he appeared at the Prince's Theatre, Manchester, in Kate Terry's farewell season, in which his roles included Mercutio in Romeo and Juliet, Claudio in Much Ado About Nothing, the clown Modus in James Sheridan Knowles's The Hunchback, and Laertes in Hamlet. Before returning to the West End, he went to his home town, Liverpool, to create the role of Roberto in W.S.Gilbert's extravaganza La Vivandière. The Liverpool Mercury said, "In acting, singing and dancing he fairly carried the audience with him".

Returning to London, Wyndham was then engaged for the Queen's Theatre, Long Acre, and there in October and November 1867 – as the gallant Dujardin in The Double Marriage and the seducer Hawksley in Still Waters Run Deep – he once again partnered Ellen Terry. The company at the Queen's also included Irving, J. L. Toole, Lionel Brough, Henrietta Hodson, Harriett Everard and Ada Dyas, who all appeared with Wyndham in January 1868 in H. J. Byron's Dearer Than Life, given in a double bill with the London production of La Vivandière, in which Wyndham's former role was played by Brough.

In 1868 Wyndham made his first venture into management, when he took the Princess's Theatre, presenting a season of three plays, but the undertaking was not successful. He returned to the US and appeared at Wallack's Theatre in 1869, playing Charles Surface in The School for Scandal, a role he made particularly his own. After several more New York productions, and having established a reputation as a light comedian, he started an American touring company of his own, opening with The Lancers in Washington DC in March 1871. He continued to tour all over the US until 1873, with a repertory of 20 plays, mostly comedies.

Farce and the Criterion, 1873–1881

Wyndham returned to England in 1873 and appeared for various managements including the Bancrofts, in new plays and revivals of classics (as Jack Rover in Wild Oats and Charles Surface again). At the Court Theatre in May 1874, he played Bob Sackett in a new farce, Brighton; Who's Who in the Theatre records, "his success in that play was very great, and the play remained a trump card In his repertory for many years". The Times later described the play as "the founder of his fortunes, [which] set him off upon a theatrical course in which he was unrivalled".

In September 1874 Wyndham inaugurated a series of matinées at the Crystal Palace in which, over three years, he presented nearly a hundred plays, and acted in many of them, in roles including Bassanio in The Merchant of Venice, and Mephistopheles in Faust and Marguerite; he staged but did not appear in Sophocles' Antigone and Oedipus at Colonus.

Wyndham made his first appearance at the Criterion Theatre, in December 1875 in Brighton, and the following year he took over the management of that theatre, which he retained for more than 20 years. The Times described the Criterion under Wyndham as "the home of farce and Wyndham its unequalled performer and stage manager". Many of the plays he presented were adaptations from the French, in which the precision and speed of the Palais-Royal productions of his youth were a considerable influence on his staging. Some Palais-Royal material required judicious modification for a respectable English audience of the 1870s, but The Times said, "His grace and vivacity were enchanting, and his lightness of touch relieved liveliness of offence". Read writes:

Wyndham did not always play in his own productions; he starred in James Albery's The Pink Dominos (1877, 555 performances) but did not appear in Burnand's Betsy (1879, 408 performances). A rare failure was Gilbert's farce Foggerty's Fairy (1881), in which Wyndham appeared with his former employer, Mrs John Wood; it opened on 15 December and closed on 6 January.

Costume drama, 1882–1899

In 1882 Wyndham again visited the United States, where he remained for eighteen months. His Criterion company was the first English troupe to reach America's west coast. On his return to London he successfully continued with modern-dress farce for some years, before turning to period pieces, first in a revival of Wild Oats in May 1886, and later in the same year in T. W. Robertson's David Garrick, a piece with which he became closely associated, playing the title role hundreds of times, including a production in German (in his own translation) which he toured in Europe in 1888, appearing in St Petersburg before Tsar Alexander III and his court.

David Garrick remained Wyndham's principal period-costume role, but he presented several more over the next decade, including Dion Boucicault's London Assurance (as Dazzle, 1890), and 18th-century comedies by Goldsmith, Sheridan, and O'Keeffe. Despite his considerable success in these plays, Read writes that many thought his finest achievement of all was "the portrayal of mellow, titled men of the world, cynical but tender", in plays written for him by Henry Arthur Jones: Lord Clivebrook in The Bauble Shop (1893), Sir Richard Kato QC in The Case of Rebellious Susan (1894), Dr Carey in The Physician (1897), Colonel Sir Christopher Deering in The Liars (1897) and Sir Daniel Carteret in Mrs Dane's Defence (1900).

Wyndham missed the chance to create one of Oscar Wilde's leading roles. Wilde modelled John Worthing in The Importance of Being Earnest on Wyndham's stage persona, and Wyndham accepted the play for production. Before it could be put into rehearsal, his fellow actor-manager George Alexander had a sudden crisis when a production failed and he had no play with which to follow it. At Wilde's request, Wyndham released the rights, and Alexander staged The Importance in February 1895. Wilde promised his next play to Wyndham, but that did not materialise, as later in 1895 Wilde was disgraced and imprisoned, and his career came to an end.

In 1897 Wyndham separated from his wife. His partner for the rest of his life was the actress Mary Moore, widow of James Albery; she had become Wyndham's leading lady, in 1885, and his business partner in 1896. In November 1899 Wyndham opened a new theatre, to which he gave his name, in Charing Cross Road. Wyndham's Theatre, designed by W. G. R. Sprague, had a deeper and wider stage than the Criterion, and the auditorium had a 20 per cent larger capacity. Wyndham opened his new theatre with a revival of David Garrick, donating the first night's takings of £4,000 to charity.

Later years, 1900–1919
In April 1900 Wyndham played the title role in Edmond Rostand's Cyrano de Bergerac. Read suggests that lack of early experience in provincial repertory had left Wyndham technically struggling with a part so different from his usual roles, but the reviews were friendly, and it was the play that did not attract audiences. He reverted to his recognised speciality, modern-dress comedy.

In the 1902 Coronation Honours Wyndham was knighted. In 1903 he opened another theatre, the New (later called the Albery, and since 2006 the Noël Coward Theatre), in St Martin's Lane, backing onto Wyndham's. In the same year, he and his company appeared before Edward VII and his court at Windsor Castle, in David Garrick; in a second command performance at Windsor, in 1907, Wyndham played John Mildmay in Taylor's Still Waters Run Deep, in which he had first played (in another role) at the Queen's forty years earlier. He continued to act in the US, appearing there in 1904, 1909, and 1910. His memory began to fail, and in 1913 he retired, after a final run of David Garrick. In 1916 his estranged wife died, and he married Mary Moore.

Wyndham died from pneumonia following influenza on 12 January 1919 at his house in York Terrace, Regent's Park, London. He was survived by his second wife and a son (Howard Wyndham, who was also a theatre manager) and a daughter from his first marriage. He was buried on 16 January at Hampstead Cemetery, and a memorial service was held at St Martin-in-the-Fields.

Dhaka's transport system below standard with poor accessibility
RHD-DTCA study finds
FE Report | September 13, 2018 00:00:00
The transportation system in the capital city is below the standard with poor state of accessibility as well as quality and reliability on public transports, according to a study.
Overall score of Dhaka's transportation system in the study is 49.21 per cent.
However, it found better state of fatalities - scoring only 1.64 person per 100,000.
The study findings were shared during a two-day international workshop of United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (UNESCAP).
Roads and Highways Department (RHD) and Dhaka Transport Coordination Authority (DTCA) conducted the study based on secondary data, field visits and interviews, for introducing an index - Sustainable Urban Transportation Index (SUTI) - for the capital.
UNESCAP, with support of DTCA and Ministry of Road Transport and Bridges (MoRTB), is working to introduce the index for assessing Dhaka's transportation system standard in every two years.
The workshop has been organised to build the capacity of all the concerned to introduce SUTI as well as to share various aspects of its 10 indicators on the basis of experiences of the countries where it is being practiced.
Representatives from different cities shared their experience on the first day of the workshop.
Road Transport and Highways Division Secretary Nazrul Islam inaugurated the workshop as the chief guest, and RHD Chief Engineer Ibne Alam Hasan was present as the special guest.
Economic Affairs Officer of UNESCAP Transport Division Madan B Regmi, and Executive Director of DTCA Khandakar Rakibur Rahman also spoke on the occasion.
The UNESCAP official said SUTI has been introduced to assess the implementing countries' level for achieving the goal-11.2 of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
While presenting the study on Dhaka, RHD Superintendent Engineer Noor-e-Alam said the city's score in terms of policy formulation was eight out of 16 for covering multimodal transportation system, pedestrian movement and public transports.
Dhaka's score in investment is impressive following the government's huge investment in mass transit system development.
But the study could not find any information from the private sector on the investment and operational cost to assess the standard.
He further said the city's position in modal share of active and public transports is impressive with scoring 88 per cent out of 90.
Though the SUTI indicators could not assess the state of congestion, the score of public transport quality and reliability is 38 per cent, which is close to minimum level, Mr Alam noted.
The RHD engineer also said the study used data mainly from Revised Strategic Transport Plan, Dhaka Urban Transport Network Development Study, Accident Research Institute, Department of Environment, and from field level by interviewing pedestrians and bus operators.
