Hone your crisis communications skills and learn from experts who manage emergency scenarios every day
Could you handle being "in the hot seat" of a major event or catastrophe? When your client or organization is facing adversity, how should you manage the many demands coming in at once?
Greater Fort Worth PRSA is offering a half-day professional development seminar from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Thursday, September 15, 2022, in Ridglea Country Club's Garden Room. The seminar features a tabletop emergency exercise led by members of the Dallas Office of Emergency Managementfollowed by a luncheon featuring Sparkle Bell, Communications Division director for the Harris County Flood Control District.
During the tabletop exercise, you and a team of other professionals will be confronted with a series of realistic, escalating emergencies for which you must provide communications support.
You will devise strategy and tactics in real time and gain valuable experience, including conducting a mock press conference and drafting social media responses in real-time. Tabletop excercise participants are encouraged to bring a fully-charged laptop for use throughout the session.
Our facilitators are:
Catherine Cuellar, director of communications, outreach and marketing, City of Dallas. Catherine is a two-time TEDx speaker and award-winning journalist with experience at NPR affiliates in Los Angeles and Dallas and at The Dallas Morning News. She has spoken about smart cities and creative placemaking at conferences including South by Southwest, the New Cities Summit, ULI and Rail~Volution.

Rebekka, Claudia and Sofie are freshmen in high school and will no longer accept being treated as juniors. Taking matters into their own hands, they devise a rite of passage, the 'fortune teller', symbolising their entry into adulthood. As they take turns challenging each other's sexual boundaries, they eventually have to ask themselves whether performing weird rituals is the easiest way to get to know themselves and feel grown up.


People are nice and the world is fun. If you'll indulge me, I'll go into a little further detail as to how I came to that conclusion. Yesterday I played my London show at Nambucca. Although everything was right on paper: The venue was great, the sound was fantastic, I felt a little unhappy and a bit stressed. Not with anything in particular, but I just felt the grind and the competitiveness and the offhandedness that is London.
One by one, people came and took all my stress away. Yesterday I had a chance to catch up with the usual suspects as well as with those whom I haven't seen in ages. So, what I enjoyed most about the show was all of you. Some of you have accompanied me in my musical endeavours for over three years now and I can't tell you how touched I am by your ongoing support. It made my day and made the show for me. I hope you enjoyed the new songs, the drums and the distorted acoustic! Thank you very much to all of you for joining me yesterday and a special thanks goes to Chris and Alicja for your loyalty and for being lovely, to Nicholas Blake, who not only takes amazing live picture but also presented me with a copy of "Ten Stories About Smoking" (which I'm about to read now!) and to Roger for rearranging his entire gig schedule for the night to see my show (and if you know Roger, you'll know what an honour that is!) – thank you! Ooh, I should also thank James from Washington DC for coming down to check out the show (it was great to meet you!) and to the other James for filming the show.
The world is fuelled by serendipity. I came home tired, but much happier at around midnight to find an email in my inbox from JayMay. This, is super cool even if you might not know why: I stumbled across her music about a year ago and fell in love with it. A few weeks ago I'd sent her an email to ask whether I might be able to support her when she tours Europe next. This was a long shot and I must have been in a good mood at the time. I honestly did not think I'd get a reply. And yet, in my inbox was a really sweet reply from her including a personalized list of New York venues for me to contact for my next trip. There, people are nice and the world is fun.
What have I learnt apart from that? Holloway Road is long and one can ever have enough spare plectrums.
In a couple of hours I'll arrive in Norwich. First stop is the BBC Norfolk for a live session and interview, then off to the Bicycle Shop for show number three!
It's great to see you tenaciously happy with a little help from your people. It's natural to feel a bit low sometimes… you don't have to keep the fire alive always by yourself.

Having a successful and growing business is the dream of many people. Indeed, to achieve success requires a strategy and seriousness. As a beginner businessman you must be able to share more time and energy to build your new business.
But not infrequently the new business people forget about financial plans in their business. Do not let you as a beginner businessman forget about these things. well, these are 5 reasons why beginner business people often fail.
Beginner business people often forget the problem of unexpected expenses when making financial plans. This can impact failure and find it difficult to make a profit.
It is important for novice business people to prepare and plan funds for unexpected things so that there is no loss or over budgeting .
Allocating funds for unexpected costs is very useful in difficult times and helps keep the business afloat during these difficult times.
It is very important for beginner business people to ensure a balance between income, expenses, debt and profits. Because, many business people who fail to set the balance between income and expenditure.
Because of poor financial arrangements, there is often an imbalance where spending is more than income. Or too much debt and not enough equity that creates a crisis in profits.
Very often beginner businessmen only focus on product prices and estimates of income rather than making detailed calculations regarding income income, net income & financial flows.
This is actually very important, as business people should learn how to make a book with the correct matrix. So that all the incoming and outgoing finances and even the development of your business will be clearly seen.
Very often beginner businesspeople do not have knowledge about how to manage finances so that the pegs don't happen bigger than the pole.
What happens is that you will seem to be in a hurry to act because you did not make a sound financial plan, so that losses can occur.
To avoid this, you must understand how mature your business is and find out if it is time to add capital to the business you manage.

If you're in to product design, software design, construction or any type of other market, there is definitely generally even more than 1 way to get stuff done. In terms of projectmanagement, both of them most prolific methods meant for getting stuff done will be the classic waterfall style of task managing as well as the cutting edge child on the prohibit, cellular task management.
To decide which can be best for the needs you have, you need to develop a great comprehension of the advantages and limitations of each and every type of project administration strategy. Here we all inspect what is diverse regarding the two schools of thought, and review side by side the huge benefits and restrictions of each.
Design job control imitates the normal work flow process in any processing or structure project as it is a sequential process. All the stages occurs in abkapselung, and once total, the team begin the subsequent level in the selection.
Waterfall task management depends upon thoughtful record saving. This means there exists a clear newspaper trek to adhere to, enabling the procedure to be finished and increased in the future. From the beginning, the client could have a clear notion of what is definitely going to happen during project delivery. They will find out roughly what the price, timescales and size of the job will probably be, and will have got a good idea of what to expect in the long run.
Once a level in the process has been completed, presently there is simply no way to get back and change items without scrapping the full job and beginning once again. The full process relies on effective first requirements; in cases where these are flawed then the project is bound to inability from the outset. The product is designed in stages and only analyzed fully at the conclusion, meaning bugs may always be so historical in due course item that they are unachievable to eliminate. Finally, this kind of project management is not going to permit alterations to the brief, consequently if the consumer understands they should alter the short half way through, surrenders will want to become made in conditions of budget and timescales.
Kbvkj was when recognized seeing that the perfect solution is to many of your problems in waterfall job management. Rather than following a range of steps in remoteness, this approach is dependent upon a gradual strategy to the project delivery. Project groups start shut off with an incredibly simple idea of where they are going, and in that case work on subtle adventures in short 'sprints'. At the end of every sprint the modules happen to be tested to learn any glitches or flaws and customer comments is gained before the subsequent sprint takes place.
Plenty of changes may be produced after first plans happen to be developed, the truth is rewrites and major improvements are practically anticipated. This will make it easier to put features and keep abreast of modifications in our sector, even while the job will be sent. Regular examining ensures faults happen to be acknowledged in early stages, that means that the merchandise can be looking forward to kick off faster and is more likely to be a quality item.
As well . needs a solid project administrator to preserve tasks upon track and balance out creative imagination with task delivery requirements. Mainly because of the haziness of the classic project method, the final item may often end up being wildly different to what was originally designed.
Each of the strategies of task management have their some place, plus the one which usually is best for your needs will depend entirely on your own specific simple. When you know what a final product should always be and therefore are self-assured the customer will never have to switch the range half approach through, waterfall project supervision is your good friend. Even so in cases where tempo of creation is even more important than the top quality of the finished product and the client would like to be able to improve scope throughout, agile makes for more flexibility and is one of the things every task director should know about.

Response to the Statement of Kosovo Police (KP) Spokesperson Mr. Baki Kelani
Abbot Sava Janjic
Yesterday, on his personal Facebook page, Abbot Sava Janjić of Visoki Dečani Monastery responded to the official police statement regarding the Satruday arrest of several armed Muslims outside the monastery:
In his statement for local media the Kosovo police spokesperson Baki Kelani said yesterday that the armed persons who were arrested two nights ago in front of our monastery had nothing to do with terrorism and that it was only a case of illegal weapons possession. Kelani also said that "the suspects' car had been seen much earlier but was stopped by police in the street there, which was the most appropriate location for the police."
In relation to this statement it is very important to bear in mind that the appearance of armed men with Islamist literature in their car is far from an ordinary case of illegal weapons possession. The arrested were certainly not tourists and the police must investigate what they were doing armed in the vicinity of the monastery at night. As the incident happened in front of the monastery gate we are particularly interested to have all the facts on this incident fully published. Kelani's hasty statement that armed Wahhabists have nothing to do with terrorism is an insult to common sense and is damaging for Kosovo police credibility.
At the same time it is not true that Kosovo police stopped the suspects' car. In the video material from CCTV cameras around the monastery one can clearly see that it was the Islamists themselves who had stopped the car in front of the monastery and that the police patrol came only later, checked their documents and searched the car. Today we showed this material to the local chief of police who had been out of Kosovo until yesterday. It is sad indeed that the KP spokesperson Mr. Kelani gave incorrect statements without having learned the facts beforehand and without anybody from KP requesting to see the video files immediately after the incident. Publishing arbitrary information creates the impression of downplaying the case for unknown reasons which is not to the benefit of Kosovo citizens regardless of their ethnic or religiou background, as terrorism is a danger for all. This also damages the already diminished confidence of our Church in Kosovo police particularly regarding the protection of our sites which are no longer protected by KFOR.
We strongly believe that the police will for the sake of transparency and professionalism in their work inform the public of all details of this case and that this incident will not remain simply one among the many which have remained unsolved.
Fr. Sava Janjić
The Abbot of Visoki Dečani Monastery
"No terror link" as "armed Islamists" are arrested in Kosovo "No terror link" as "armed Islamists" are arrested in Kosovo Four armed Islamists have been arrested in front of the main gate to the Serbian Orthodox Monastery of Visoki Decani in Kosovo.

$$$, Vietnamese,
"This dish is perfect to share. The hot plate is served in the middle of the table alongside a huge portion of beef, shrimp, calamari, butter, herbs, rice paper, rice and dipping sauces. The object of the game is to first add butter, then proteins. Patiently wait while the proteins cook on the hotplate and race to see who can build the best spring roll. It's a classic battle of chopsticks and determination. The victor gets bragging rights and a full belly. Extreme fun!"

"This is a simple but super delicious 'po' boy': grilled pork hot link sausages nestled in a perfectly baked French baguette. It is then smeared with mayo and topped with shredded lettuce, tomatoes, and pickles, and served with a side of sweet potato fries. Can you say 'order up'?"
Potato gnocchi w/ blue crab & black truffle
Restaurant August

"This dish is by far the most delicious that Restaurant August continues to produce since its inception. It just screams elegance and sophistication. Yukon gold potatoes incorporated with flour, egg, and a pinch of nutmeg are rolled into a perfect gnocchi. It is then heated in a creamy fumet studded with fresh black truffles and Louisiana blue crab. It is then topped with shaved Parmesan cheese and more shaved truffles! OMG… need I say more?"

"The marinated short ribs are charred on a grill, giving it this sweet and bitter taste. This is counterbalanced by the lemon pepper dipping sauce and spicy kimchi.

"Once again, simple and fresh ingredients make long-lasting memories. These Vietnamese crêpes are packed full of fresh herbs, pork, shrimp, and turmeric, which turns them a yellowish color. They are cooked in oil with high heat that gives them a crispy texture on the outside and gooey texture within, and then they are served with herbs, lettuce wraps, and nước mắm (fish sauce)."


Abstract: Radiotherapy for cancer patients damages normal tissues, thereby inducing an inflammatory response and promoting cancer metastasis. We investigated whether nicaraven, a compound with radioprotective and anti-inflammatory properties, could attenuate radiation-induced cancer metastasis to the lungs of mice. Nicaraven and amifostine, another commercial radioprotective agent, had limited effects on both the radiosensitivity of Lewis lung carcinoma cells in vitro and radiation-induced tumor growth inhibition in vivo. Using experimental and spontaneous metastasis models, we confirmed that thorax irradiation with 5 Gy X-rays dramatically increased the number of tumors in the lungs. Interestingly, the number of tumors in the lungs was significantly reduced by administering nicaraven but not by administering amifostine daily after radiation exposure. Furthermore, nicaraven administration effectively inhibited CCL8 expression and macrophage recruitment in the lungs 1 day after thorax irradiation. Our data suggest that nicaraven attenuates radiation-induced lung metastasis, likely by regulating the inflammatory response after radiation exposure.

Raising chickens in Halfmoon Bay | John Marian: all right all right all right - I'll write!
I don't fully identify myself that way…probably out of aversion to the limits of categorization.
I write, obviously. But I garden too….sing (well enough to please me at least)….invent a bit…channel the odd witticism….retain some hand skills and the physical wherewithal to use them. My guitar playing sometimes surprises me and can draw the odd approving comment. I have recorded four albums of my songs.
I'm about being manifest in as many ways as bring me some level of satisfaction, wishing to be complete…for no better reason than to not be incomplete.
From which observation I can go 'writing off in all directions'.
This bit of pondering is in aid of finally getting around to re-vitalizing this web-site from which I have been too long absent……. attending to those other interests.
Other content on this site indicates, I would think, that adventure is one of my delights. And still, now out of the mainstream of endeavor as it were, the odd one comes my way without my seeking it out as I once did.
It might bring a degree of associated fear, suffering, hurt and loss, but also delight and triumph…as is the way with adventure and my experience of life in general.
It is late afternoon of a pleasant fall day. I nevertheless have gotten busy inside the house when the phone rings, as it does infrequently nowadays. One of the very good neighbors whose places bracket mine relates anxiously that four raccoons have just vacated her back porch and might be after my hens.
Guilt suffuses my very being. I let them out of their enclosure and forgot needing to keep working outside where I could keep an eye on them. I thank her for the heads up, hang up, glance out into the yard and ponder how to quickly arm myself.
After losing birds last year to the weasel from hell and then to a black bear I went to great trouble to rebuild their run to exclude predators. It's a fair-sized enclosure but doesn't work if the 'girls' aren't in it and my own dislike for feeling penned in has me free them into the larger yard when I'm working out there. On a nice day, I generally am and was earlier on this one.
I have a couple of rifles from my hunting days, but I'm not going to use either in this semi-rural residential area. I have a pretty good sling-shot, precisely for this kind of occasion. But, hanging underneath a coat and long unused it just plain doesn't come to mind.
So I pull on my high rubber boots (as a hedge against bites), go out the back door, grab a piece of bamboo about four-feet long, slip through the gates that bracket the bird run and hurry to where, sure enough, four raccoons are dragging my spunky little barred-rock hen towards the alders and salmon-berry bushes on the other side of the back hedge. She's on her side, one wing dragging, head bloodied.
The hen is either in shock or is realizing that deliverance is at hand. She and I seem to connect at the soul level, very much eye-to-eye. Seriously. And she is by far and by habit the more aloof of my two hens.
The four-raccoons….this spring's litter by the size of them….orphaned perhaps….their mother, at any rate, thankfully, not on the scene…..are looking warily up at me.
The stand-off lasts less than a minute, until one of them can't take the tension and starts to sidle off towards the hedge. Two more quickly follow. The third reluctantly looses the bedraggled hen from its salivating jaws and joins the retreat.
And up she springs…..literally…..and gallops across the scrub grass into the bird run.
I herd the four raiders off the property…..directing a few half-hearted pokes their way. They go and return and finally go for good.
And that's it. I flush out the other hen from where she's hiding under a clump of bamboo, herd her into the run, close it up, and get back to whatever I was doing in the house, feeling strangely blessed to live where I do, at the edge of the forest, where such things can happen.
The next morning, in an act of noble obduracy I thought, but more probably because it was in process already, my little hen gifted me with her usual egg. The last of her laying season, as it turned out, but then the other hen had laid herself off a few weeks earlier, as hens will in winter, and my rescued one was due for a rest, on multiple counts.
Young raccoons might be appealing but a sow with her teeth bared is a different matter. And once they have a taste for your wares- animal, vegetable or fish, deterring them takes more than a little application.
Live traps can work on raccoons, if you terminate those you've caught, and only until more show up. Relocating them might accommodate your own understandable aversion to this, but it shifts the consequences of your intervention elsewhere. Dropping a predator off in habitat that already has its balance of species just means some other creature or creatures are going to take the brunt of the move….if the raccoon doesn't find its way back to you.
My pond plants sit snugly in a grid cut from galvanized cattle panel, about 30" square, with barbed wire laid around them on the surface. I hose-clamped this grid atop a galvanized milk crate within which I located my pump, the spout just clearing the surface. For a change the raccoons left both plants and pump alone. The array provides shelter for fish and frogs. A plastic crate would work just as well.
I could not trap and never did see the weasel that lay waste to first three and then another two hens on separate nights. Rare they might be, but nothing else could have got in through two-inch stucco mesh. I rebuilt the whole run…with chunks of old concrete, stucco wire and rocks buried eight to ten inches deep around the perimeter, all of that covered over with foot-wide swimming-pool material and smallish stones for looks. I will be adding electric fencing as a deterrent to bears.
My alternative to all that was to give up on having hens and perhaps adding a drake-for slug deterrence. It was immensely satisfying to refuse to be beaten. The re-framing and rewiring with one-inch mesh was excellent if painful therapy for wrists that were sequentially operated on last winter.
It isn't having the eggs that I like best about having birds in the backyard mix….it's having close-to-hand a place to throw organic kitchen and garden waste. It just plain disappears. A roomy run for two hens generates no smell and one or two eggs a day for much of the year.
I got my heavy-duty, factory-seconds 1" mesh from Fraser Valley Wire and Steel, in Abbotsford. They make it there and carry cattle panel…..54" x 16′. They can order in the 5 gauge (1/4") 7 1/2'x20′ concrete mesh that I cable-clamp end to end and have located pretty much free-standing between two row of hedge to keep out deer. A pretty neat place to check out for the practically inclined. They sell top-quality hog-ring pliers and the rings…18-gauge hold up pretty well to the pressure of stretching. Chain cutters will run you about $40 at GBS in Sechelt. You'll need the 24" ones to cut cattle panel or barbed wire..or a small grinder. The upper-body strength some folks might have to borrow from a friend.


How many of these pop songs do you remember from your younger days?
One of our lovely interns, Amna Khan, has written this tribute to her favourite memories of Pakistani pop music. Which of these can you relate to?
We have all read the comical sign often in restaurants illustrating, 'No Wifi, talk to each other like its 1995'. Often forgetting how during that era people bonded over music equally as much as they did over stimulating conversation. A pop culture era that initiated its rudiments within the Pakistani Music scene during the early 1980's right after Zia's demise. However It all officially started by Ahmad Rushdi's 'Ko ko korina' in 1966.
Then came Nazia Hasan with her brother Zohaib Hasan who took the infant industry to insurmountable levels, even to this very day we can relate to the tunes of 'Disco Deewane' and 'Boom Boom'.
The cataclysm of the Pop culture of Pakistan was further dominated by Vital Signs, Strings, and Junoon. These bands who worked and toiled hard to maintain a niche market attracting people all over the world to their concerts far more than any artists of Indian origin. Yes, undoubtedly there was the panache of Stereo Nation and Palash Sen's Euphoria. But the loyalty exacerbated by South Asian Youth towards their local artists is next to incomparable.
Vital Signs' soft songs, Junoon's Sufism and String's freshness is still being praised by music lovers. 'Purani Jeans' by Ali Haider and 'Mr.Fraudiye' by Awaz sums up the majority of the dilemma we face as youth in the 80's when times were simpler and people less pretentious.
However more often than not that is enough for those of us who remember and feel the transiency of time. Who crave the fervor and relish the effect of that classic patriotic music, Nayyara Noor's 'Wattan Ki Mitti', Mehdi Hassan's 'Ye Wattan Tumhara Hai' which made us believe how tangible and progress this state is.
'Dil Dil Pakistan' was ranked third in the BBC World Service international poll of popular songs and used to be one of the favourites of all school celebrations and performances on Independence Day.
'Mera Paigham Pakistan' by another legendary voice, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan who engendered in us the sacrifices that our country men made to establish their nation. The expression through the art of words and verse exactly how they feel about their mother land pop music will formally always remain a testimony to the sagacity of our nation.

38 Movies That Will Transport You to Paris
Musicals, mysteries, and a whole lot of Audrey Hepburn.
Paris has inspired every type of artist over the years, from Impressionist painters to literary giants. But the city perhaps shines the brightest on the big screen, serving as the backdrop to countless movies over the past century. Even before French directors like Jean-Luc Godard and François Truffaut launched a cinematic movement in the 1960s, Hollywood showcased the beauty of Paris in breezy musicals and romances. And since then, we've seen the city shine in animated films, white-knuckle thrillers, gritty biopics, and more. Regardless of the genre, one thing's for sure: The City of Light sure knows how to steal a scene. From Amélie to Ratatouille, here are 35 movies that will transport you to Paris—no plane ticket required
When I think of Paris on film, I think of scenes from Amélie. The quirky 2001 romantic comedy follows the titular character, played by Audrey Tautou, as she flits around her hometown of Paris, observing strangers around her. Though she's struggling with her own loneliness, she becomes fixated on improving the lives of others, often from afar and with no recognition. The feel-good film was supposedly filmed in over 80 locations throughout the city, so it alone is a whimsical trip through the City of Light. —Megan Spurrell, associate editor

Alphaville (1965)
The genius of Jean-Luc Godard's hard-boiled dystopian sci-fi flick from 1965 is that it uses the Paris of its day to create a world that feels utterly unlike the place we think of as Paris, then and now. Shooting at night, Godard used the glassy Modernist high-rises of La Défense and other then-new developments on the outskirts of the city to depict the cold, computer-run autocracy of Alphaville, a Brave New World sort of place into which a Humphrey Bogart-ish American detective (played by Eddie Constantine) must go to seek the people's freedom. The marriage between noir and science fiction that Godard achieved here is one that numerous other filmmakers would seek to replicate, with Ridley Scott in Blade Runner being perhaps the greatest example. —Jesse Ashlock, U.S. editor

Nana's dance from "Vivre Sa Vie" (1962)
Vivre Sa Vie ("My Life to Live") is a 1962 French New Wave drama film directed by Jean-Luc Godard.
Nana (Anna Karina), a beautiful Parisian in her early twenties, leaves her husband and infant son hoping to become an actress. Without money, beyond what she earns as a shopgirl, and unable to enter acting, she elects to earn better money as a prostitute. Soon she has a pimp, Raoul, who after an unspecified period agrees to sell Nana to another pimp. During the exchange the pimps argue and Nana is killed in a gun battle. Nana's short life on film is told in 12 brief episodes each preceded by a written intertitle.

French new wave star Anna Karina dies aged 79
Karina was best known for the string of films she made with Jean-Luc Godard, including A Woman Is a Woman and Pierrot le Fou
Danish-French actor Anna Karina, star of Bande à Part and Pierrot le Fou and collaborator with New Wave director Jean-Luc Godard, has died of cancer at the age of 79, her agent said.
Karina, who epitomised 1960s chic with her elfin features and big kohl-rimmed blue eyes, starred in seven films made by her ex-husband Godard, including Alphaville.
"Anna died yesterday in a Paris hospital of the effects of cancer," her agent Laurent Balandras told AFP, adding that she passed away in the company of her fourth husband, American director Dennis Berry.
"Today, French cinema has been orphaned. It has lost one of its legends," culture minister Franck Riester tweeted.
Karina was still a teenager when she hitchhiked to Paris from her native Denmark to try to become an actress. She developed a successful modelling career before being spotted by Godard while walking along the Champs-Elysees. Godard offered her a nude scene in Breathless, his first film, but she refused.
They were a couple when, at barely 21, she won best actress at the Berlin film festival for his 1961 film A Woman is a Woman. They divorced in 1965. "We loved each other a lot," Karina told AFP in an interview in Paris in March 2018. "But it was complicated to live with him," she added.
"He was someone who could say to you, 'I am going to get some cigarettes' and come back three weeks later."
She later went behind the camera to make Vivre Ensemble, a romance between a history teacher and a free spirited young woman that ends in drugs and domestic violence.
Karina also had some success as a singer, recording Sous Le Soleil Exactement with Serge Gainsbourg.

Behind Jean-Luc Godard's Shades: Agnès Varda's Ways Of Seeing
Elsa Court unpicks the cinematic relationship between Agnès Varda and Jean-Luc Godard. With her new film, Faces, Places, in UK cinemas soon, and a retrospective currently on screen at the BFI Southbank, a reassessment of the often marginalised Varda feels more vital than ever
"L'art du cinema consiste à faire faire de jolies choses à de jolies femmes" – the art of cinema consists in having pretty women do pretty things. This quote, from Francois Truffaut, was how I chose to open my lecture – the last of four taught on the directors of the French New Wave at the Department of Continuing Education at Oxford University last autumn – on Agnès Varda. I had decided to save Varda for last, and Truffaut's quote, frequently remembered in the wealth of critical writing on the French New Wave, seemed to me a good entrée en matière to discussing the postfeminist narrative of Varda's Cléo de 5 à 7 (1962).
So far into the course, I had approached the movement according to its standard historical – and therefore predominantly male – perspective, placing the films of Truffaut, Jean-Luc Godard, and Alain Resnais within their cultural context in postwar France, stressing the way in which the young, anti-orthodox filmmakers simultaneously called for a reassessment of cinema as art and for a relaxing of the rules of filmmaking. By the end of the day, I had yet to discuss the New Wave's inclusion of women and its representations of gender relations, which jarred with the movement's professed radical attitudes towards both film and the changing landscape of France's society and culture. My lecture on Varda deliberately approached her work through the perspective of her uniquely playful, even generous redressing of the codes of female representation within the movement and in French cinema in the broader sense.

People, Life And Technologies | Comau
Life, People & Technologies #InsideComau
HUMANufacturing : Inside Comau
A photographic project that accompanies you into Comau's world, where innovation is born.
#InsideComau is a voyage through images captured within Comau's headquarters to discover the people who work with commitment, professionalism and passion every single day and the places where our most advanced technologies are born.
Through different work areas within the factory and Comau Academy training classrooms, to engineering design and development meetings, we tried to tell you what it means to work in Comau, through faces, gestures and the highlights that represent our everyday life.
There are many stories as part of #InsideComau, which you can follow on our website and social media channels.
#1: MATE
To realize all of our technologies, Comau employees' technical competencies and expertise are necessary, from design to assembly and final testing. For example, in the factory of our headquarters in Grugliasco, MATE – the exoskeleton that works like you do - was born. It is the result of calibrated precise steps, attention to detail, and, above all, enthusiasm for a job that gives shape to innovative products every time.
#2: e.DO™
At the assembly corner of Comau's plant in Grugliasco, component after component, e.DO – the modular, open-source robot - takes shape. For a moment, the very high professional competence of our operators takes on an almost playful procedure: the construction, verification and implementation of a small 6-axis anthropomorphic developed for the educational world.
#3: Training Technologies
For Comau's team, the thrill of designing and developing cutting-edge technologies - such as the e.DO modular robot and MATE exoskeleton - always includes the satisfaction of trying and personally testing the products. What better way can there be to optimize a technology than seeing it in action for yourself?
#4: Ready to ship
Tested, checked and ready for shipment: in the Grugliasco Comau plant all the robots, equipped to operate in different sectors and applications, are checked manually and visually, one by one, by specialized operators. The last delicate step before sending to client Companies, from Turin to any Country in the world.
#5: AURA
AURA is a large cobot with a very special skin. AURA is able to work effectively and safely alongside people thanks to bodywork fitted with an advanced system of sensors that function just like the human senses. With the aid of conventional robots, Comau engineers install AURA's bodywork, check its functioning and program it to move and interact in the space of the Smart Factory.
#6: Teamwork life
A large multi-national company like Comau is populated by a mix of skills and professions, nationalities, languages and cultures. Our great team is made up of numerous working groups who collaborate every day to achieve shared objectives, with each member making a "unique" contribution to the development and completion of our projects.
#7: AGILE
The Smart Factory begins with people. All Comau robotic technology is developed thanks to the constant support of human operators. Agile1500, Comau's 4.0 logistic platform, is no exception. It is assembled, installed and tested by Comau technicians before starting to work alongside them and supporting them in the management and operation of production lines and warehouses that are digitally connected to every unit in the factory.
#8: Robot Assembly
 Industrial robots are designed to make factory work easier for people by performing the most tiring, heavy and difficult tasks. But it takes people to design and develop them in the first place and especially to assemble them and put them into service. From the base to the body and the wrist, these mechanical giants are the fruit of human ingenuity.

They were there every step of the way and provided so much support! Our guests loved that they could dance, play yard games, and sit by the fire pit during our reception and have since told us that it was "the best wedding they have EVER been too!" Thanks for everything Brooke, you are truly a brides best friend!"


Is Duane on this ship? How did Clare know that Leora wouldn't be here? I don't know whether this'll be of any use to you. It's Shuvra I want to talk to. That's not my favorite topic. I laughed so hard tears streamed down my face. How often does Mayo take French lessons? I can smell what you're smelling. Everything is new when you look with new eyes. I met with an old woman.
It's still minor league but in the not so distant future they'll be coming to a place near you. There's nothing that we can do to stop her. I must leave here today. Thank you for reminding me about the meeting I have to attend. Some people think that advertising is a form of brainwashing. His name was forgotten. Pantelis wrapped the ice pack in a damp towel and placed it on his thigh. What made Varda so mad? Stu said he could help Klaudia. Margaret said he wouldn't do it.
He was opposed to monopolies. Help is on the way. Chill out. I thought I knew them. Celia spends most of his spare time practicing the guitar. You've got this. They shook hands when they met at the airport. I know you will. How does Trevor intend to fix this? I find the plan to be unsatisfactory in several ways.
Carole certainly has some pretty old-fashioned ideas. As it happens, I have no money with me now. I go to Boston every chance I get. Sanity isn't well. The people tried to clear the street of snow. You're gonna be famous one day. I'm sorry I yelled at them. She's at her tennis lesson. He is very fond of playing the guitar. By that time I'll have already left.
Everybody knows that you are a liar. I know it's going to hurt. The hotel has a good prospect. You can sleep now. He has a sister and she goes to school, too. When I was a small boy in Kansas, a friend of mine and I went fishing and as we sat there in the warmth of the summer afternoon on a river bank, we talked about what we wanted to do when we grew up. I told him that I wanted to be a real major league baseball player, a genuine professional like Honus Wagner. My friend said that he'd like to be President of the United States. Neither of us got our wish. The line is busy now. He's my best friend and we do everything together. I should tell him I'm back. Do you ever think about retiring?
Take off your jacket because it's very hot. The water turned to ice. I crashed in that sprayer plane in 2003. She doesn't know how to tell the difference between good and evil. I spent some time in Boston. I laid myself on the grass. In footnotes, book titles and journal names are written in italics. Come home right away. Esperanto is a flexible and practical language, easy to learn and memorize. I think time will tell.
The auditorium is filled to capacity with anxious applicants. They seem completely absorbed in each other. Stagger must've been suspicious. My uncle's blog posts about his travels in Thailand have piqued my interest in Asian culture. I woke up in a cold sweat. Why don't I pay him a visit? Douglas's great-grandfather was the mayor of Boston. I don't know how much more I can take. We pitched our tent under the shade of a large tree. I'm sure Nils didn't mean it.
The mail arrives before noon. Hein plucked the chicken. He can't afford a new car. Kees would've gone if he could've. Amarth asked me why I never came into the office on Mondays. We gave Ronald some apples. It is next to impossible. The media got wind of a rumor about his engagement and came quickly. Holly was on the same bus with me. And throughout history, Islam has demonstrated through words and deeds the possibilities of religious tolerance and racial equality.
I failed the tests. We'll consult him. I don't think I can get you to understand how difficult that is. I haven't talked about this in a long time. He made an official visit to the French president the day before yesterday. The bank is three blocks away. Some flowers bloom in the spring and other flowers bloom in the fall. When I was fifteen years old, I could speak five languages. Relationships are incredibly complicated. Thomas says he can stay here two or three nights.
It's exactly as you say it is. How is it going? Steen and I are teachers. Jose is anxious about the way she looks. Some were farmers, some were hunters. Did you poison them? Leslie told me to stay in my room. He is our driver. "Would you mind giving me a lift in your car?" "Not at all." That comedian is very funny.

August 16, 2022 in Music

Since working from home I've become a huge fan of internet radio, especially since discovering the Radio Garden website and app (a very reasonable £2.08 when I got it). After initially scouring the planet for interesting radio I settled down to a list of favourites that I'll have on at some point during the day.
Was curious to find more stations though as I feel there must be so much out there, from full-on commercial to interesting sounds, easily-accessible music to way-out weirdness.
Here are a few that I regularly tune in to:
Noods Radio - this is probably my favourite, hands down. Based in Bristol, they're guaranteed to have something interesting playing when I tune in. It's basically a load of individuals doing an hour of whatever, whether that be jungle, electronic, soul, random 70s jazz, anything really, although there is a bias towards electronic.
Sub FM - been going for about 20 years, mainly bass-heavy music including dubstep, drum and bass, bassline/garage. They archive all their shows and it goes back to 2004!
Melodic Distractions - similar format to Noods, this time based in Liverpool.
DKFM - shoegaze and dreampop 24 hours a day.
Chillsky Radio - continuous lo-fi hip-hop, you know, the "chill beats to study to" sort.
NTS 1/2 - more formal, with actual live shows, not 100% my bag (bit too much house at times), but usually something interesting going on.
Always after more interesting internet radio, not necessarily music either, any good chat would be interesting too. I'm not totally against commercial radio either, and whilst I don't do it often sometimes it's fun to put on some foreign commercial station and try to figure out what the ads are for.
ZOK
My mate does a show on Noods sometimes, it's good! NTS is my favourite though, it's so good I've even become a subscriber. High Hopes with Judah is probably my favourite show on there.
Here he is: https://noodsradio.com/residents/crossing-the-danny
Count Buffalos
Yeah, I'd say that NTS is essential listening for anyone with more than a passing interest in music to be honest. There's such a great selection of shows to listen to. If you don't fancy the live shows there's an enormous archive of past shows too, which can be filtered by genre.
acidbearboy
Thanks to this thread I remembered to check out Intergalactic FM, which I keep forgetting to do. They also have a basic Android/iPhone app which makes it more likely for me to listen in.
cubik
Soma.fm is my first choice for internet radio. A variety of quality stations, with their electronic options being some of the best.
Flub
I really like this site

I've been introduced to so much new music on NTS it's ridiculous. Even new genres of music I was unaware of, it's just brilliant.
QuackQuack
NTS has been my happy place since 2013. Definitely got a lot slicker in the last 10 years! Wasn't uncommon to just have the N..T..S jingle on repeat for hours at a time
Do!!You!!! with previous, better NTS morning host Charlie Bones has been gathering steam. https://doyou.world
The Lot Radio can be good at times, too
18 hours ago, cubik said:
Checking some of these out now. n5MD Radio and cliqhop idm are the two I'm enjoying the most so far.
Triple R Melbourne. 3RR.
It's another one where there is something interesting on whenever I tune in.
https://www.rrr.org.au/
It's a pain in the arse to play on Alexa though. I have to use Bluetooth. (Alexa is not flexible or clever at all!)
I used to listen to that a lot when I worked in Sydney years ago, it always seemed like a decent station.

That's surprising, I thought the Alexa speakers were much more flexible with this sort of thing.
I have Google speakers, and I had managed to create an app for listening to WFMU (from New Jersey), as well as their online archives, but Google have recently announced that they're shutting down "conversational actions" next year, effectively killing any hobbyist apps on the devices.
I was tempted to bin the lot of them (cos Google are pissing me off in more ways than this) and getting Alexas instead, but ...

He's playing today from 1-2 if anyone fancies listening! Then we'll be djing down at Cosies tonight if anyone in Bristol is about for a night of soul, funk and hip hop.
Art Vandelay
It's such a shame WorldwideFM is pausing in October as that has been amazing. To be honest I've no idea how they kept it going this long with no really subscriber model or advertising. I would have happily paid a monthly amount for it. Fortunately the archive is being kept which is enough for a lifetime.
Worldwidefm.net
Went to listen to some internet radio via Radio Garden app only to be told all stations outside the UK are blocked. Having a read around I found a Reddit post that suspects this is related to a rights issue and that it affects all radio apps. This is sad news and I really hope they can sort it out. Like this country is shit enough as it is already.

This is our radio home these days, there's a huge amount of great shows on it. Discoverability could be a bit better, but just jump on the live stream and give it a whirl.
On 21/10/2022 at 14:56, Vimster said:
It's probably all related to this court ruling from 2019, which did for TuneIn ... so I wouldn't hold your breath.
1 hour ago, peeveen said:
Absolutely tragic. Yeah, that's not going to get sorted. Thanks, Warner and Sony, thanks a bunch.
Luckily my VPN provider has an Android app and now Radio Garden appears to work. Phew.
Brave browser with a Tor tab will get around it too it seems.
Hey, on the subject of internet radio we went to a festival in the summer called Watching Trees, the ZOK Consort had heard it being advertised on the Optimo show on NTS and we took a flyer on it. And it was brilliant! There were around 500 people there including crew, we met so many lovely people and I think must have been amongst the only people who there who didn't know Optimo in some way (it was a 25 year celebration for them).
So hats off to NTS again!
@ZOK If you haven't already I'd check out John Gomez's breakfast show. I think it's the highlight of their programming at the moment. He also does a monthly one which is amazing.
19 minutes ago, Art Vandelay said:
Yes I've listened to him - I think all the breakfast shows are good, I love Flo, Zakia, Macca etc. There's a guy on Fridays who does a lunch show that is great as well, I can't remember his name though.
1 hour ago, ZOK said:
Scratcha? He's a good time
Yes it may be - he does break downs of song lyrics which are hilarious, and plays a mix of soul, hip hop and breakbeat stuff.
Really good jazz show from Beirut just started on NTS: https://www.nts.live/shows/ernesto-chahoud/episodes/ernesto-chahoud-5th-november-2022
There is a cracking show on NTS at the moment, looks like one from the archives - Louise Chen has special guest Tyler the Creator on, and they play great tunes:

BERLIN: The World Economic Forum (WEF) has named BMW Group Plant Regensburg a 'Lighthouse of the Fourth Industrial Revolution', acknowledging its pioneering role in the digitalisation of industrial production.
According to the WEF, especially by using the custom BMW Group Intranet-of-Things platform, the Regensburg Plant cut the time to deploy all new applications by 80% leading to a significant reduction in logistics costs.
"Effective digital solutions and structural decisions provide us with clear strategic guidance and, along with the overarching BMW IoT platform, they are key factors in our success. The capacity of our associates to shape developments and integrate new solutions into production is fundamental to what we do," he added. The digitalisation of the BMW Group Production System is largely taking place in the fields of innovative automation and assistance systems, additive manufacturing, smart data analytics and smart logistics, it stated.

Q: Failed to execute goal... error. Deploying to Heroku I am trying to deploy my application to Heroku, but I'm geting this message all the time. When I run it in IntelliJ the application is working.
The application is written in Spring Boot.
What could be the cause of this error?

Here is my pom.xml

A: I think the problem is due to a mismatch of the Java version in your project's pom.xml file and that being used by Heroku.
A simple solution could be either specify your target version in pom.xml or configure the Java version in Heroku. You can add the following code below <description> in your pom.xml file to specify your target version.
    <properties>
        <java.version>1.8</java.version>

Students with a bachelor's degree or the equivalent from an accredited college or university may apply for admission to the Graduate School. Please see the Graduate School admissions site for details on graduate admissions including deadlines, required materials, GRE/GMAT scores, and application fees.
Degree-Seeking or Graduate Certificate Students
Applicants for a degree or graduate certificate program at UMSL must submit an application, official transcript documenting the baccalaureate degree and all other prior coursework, scores from examinations required by the program, and other evidence of academic and professional preparation required by the program. Such evidence may include standardized test results, letters of recommendation, transcripts of all academic work attempted, and writing samples.
When there are openings for new students, applicants are normally admitted given official evidence of:
A baccalaureate or advanced degree from an accredited institution of higher education,
An undergraduate grade point average (GPA) and major field GPA of at least 2.75,
An acceptable score on each requisite examination, and
Satisfactory additional materials required by the particular program.
The dean of the Graduate School makes the final decision on applications, based on recommendations from the program.
Non-Degree-Seeking Students
Applicants may seek status as Non-Degree-seeking graduate students if they are visiting students, they do not intend to pursue a degree, or they want to participate in graduate workshops or institutes. Applicants must provide an official transcript showing completion of a baccalaureate or higher degree, with a GPA of at least 2.5. A Non-Degree student must maintain a GPA of at least 3.00.
The dean of the Graduate School admits Non-Degree-seeking students only upon recommendation of the program.
Course work completed by Non-Degree students is not regarded as work toward a degree program. Therefore, Non-Degree students are not eligible for federal financial aid. Should a Non-Degree student apply for Degree-Seeking status and be admitted to the program the maximum hours of Non-Degree status work that can be applied to a degree program is nine semester hours. A Non-Degree student wishing to take more than nine hours may be allowed to do so contingent upon departmental recommendation. No credits taken as Non-Degree status may count as part of the residence requirement for a degree.
Non-Degree Education Certification students are exempt from the nine-hour limitation on non-degree courses because they take courses for State Department of Education certification. However, all other conditions regarding admission and registration that apply to Non-Degree students apply to Education Certification students.
Students wishing to change from Non-Degree to Degree-seeking must submit a new graduate application for review and approval by the program and the dean of the Graduate School.
Important Note Regarding MyGateway:
Once a student has been admitted, a new MyGateway student account will be established. MyGateway will be your online portal to manage many activities like registering for courses, viewing your grades, and communicating with faculty.

After 9 years of hosting an annual golf classic, we announced yesterday that we will not be hosting the Jason Richardson Golf Classic this year. In the past nine years we have been able to raise more than $198,000 thanks to the support from Jason Richardson, his foundation and our incredible community members. Although we won't be hosting the golf outing this year, we look forward to working with Jason and his foundation again in the future.
This year United Way of Saginaw County received a "challenge" from our friends at The Dow Chemical Company. If we could get enough community leaders to step up and give a donation at one of our leadership levels or if they were already giving at a leadership level to increase their gift to the next level, then The Dow Chemical Company would provide a match of $25,000.
Thanks to our generous donors, we were able to raise $2,273,163 for the Saginaw County community! We announced the campaign results at our Campaign Celebration breakfast on Thursday, January 17, 2013.
Thank you to the AT&T foundation for their generous $20,000 corporate donation.
