For the French, it's the Battle of Verdun. For the British, the Somme. For the Americans, the Meuse-Argonne is the superlative battle. The largest battle in US history: 1.2 million American soldiers participated. The longest battle: lasting 47 days. The deadliest: 26,277 Americans killed.
The battle ended with the war, November 11, 1918. It began September 26. For the 137th Infantry Regiment, it began at the "V of Vauquois." Private Potts, with Company M, was in the lead battalion.
One century later, to the minute, we can place Private Benjamin Franklin Potts, with reasonable confidence, in the line between "Route Nationale No. 46" (left) and hilltop "253" (mid-sector), "approximately 500 meters from the enemy's front line trenches…" (Haterius 139).
On this map, we can see where Private Potts would have been on any given day from September 26 through September 30, 1918.
The map, prepared by the American Battle Monuments Commission in 1937, shows the area through which the 35th Division advanced in the first days of the Meuse-Argonne Offensive. The two red vertical lines mark the boundaries of the division sector, left and right. The ragged horizontal red lines show the front line at midnight on the date indicated.
From the battle plan, we know when the artillery's rolling barrage began, as well as its rate of advance. We also know the infantry moved roughly 100 meters behind it. Therefore, up until 7:40 a.m. when the rolling barrage ceased, we can follow Private Potts's movement across the battlefield.
At H-hour, the order is given: "Let's go." Private Potts crawls out of a shallow hole and heads into No Man's Land. An exploding wall of dirt and debris, the artillery's rolling barrage, precedes him. An orange flash, veiled by dense fog in the pre-dawn dark, reveals for an instant the man on his left and the man on his right and, to his front, grotesque forms in the disheveled land. The ground trembles. The blast pierces the ears. The soldier moves forward.
Private Potts's first combat experience was here, west of Vauquois Hill, east of the town of Boureilles, at the "V of Vauquois." Stretched across his path beyond the fog, four lines of trenches, named Balkans, Serpent, Constantinople, Enfer (pronounced on-fair).
Company M advances in staggered formation, never presenting a straight line shot of two men to the enemy trenches, with a few meters between each man, to minimize casualties from a single grenade or artillery blast. Ahead, in silhouette against the orange flashes, appears an earthen berm and mangled wire. Drawing no fire from the Balkans trench, the men pass cautiously.
Kenamore: "Once fairly in the field it became apparent that the going was to be very bad. The autumn frequently brings to that part of France a thick, clinging fog which only a bright sun or a strong wind can disperse. The heaviest fog of the season had descended on the valley of the Aire that morning. At first thought, it appeared that this might be of assistance to the Thirty-fifth, for it would conceal the advancing troops from the waiting machine gunners, but very soon it became apparent that the maintaining of liaison would be most difficult.
Any optimism rising in a soldier's heart on passing the abandoned trench shatters in bursts of machine-gun fire from the next one. Platoon leaders shout orders, incoming artillery blasts the ground, dirt and mud rain down on the soldier, who moves forward in a crouch. Boom! A thrown grenade silences the machine gun. Rifles fire in the fog, Pop! Pop! Tat! Tat! Pop!
Serpent is littered with gray-clad bodies, still and bleeding. Through the trench the men must trudge. The stench of mud and blood and human waste assails the nose. Up the other side, the soldiers look to their left and right. Comrades in the fog, still thick, dull gray before dawn.
The blasts of the rolling barrage more distant, the order cuts through the mist, and Company M advances the line into the next burst of machine-gun fire. Adrenaline pumps in the veins. Legs move without thought. Tat! Tat! Pop! Boom!
Constantinople is cleared. Wounds are dressed. Prisoners escorted to the rear. The dead are marked with a rifle, fixed bayonet thrust in the ground; regimental band members bearing stretchers are to follow. Again the order, again the men advance.
By the time they cleared the last machine gun from their sector of Enfer (French for "Hell"), the boys of Company M were combat veterans, and the sun had not yet risen over the blanket of fog that covered the battlefield on that first of what would be five days of fighting.
Meanwhile, on the right half of the division sector, the 138th Regiment, according to orders, avoided Vauquois Hill, moving around its east flank. This was done to prevent delay in the advancing line. The task of taking the fortified hill and Rossignol Wood behind it was assigned to a battalion of the support regiment.
As our Third Battalion, 137th Regiment, cleared the trenches of the "V of Vauquois," the Second Battalion of the 139th Regiment, followed close behind. This battalion, once the leading elements had passed Vauquois Hill, veered to the right behind it to attack from the flank.
Whether it was the lengthy bombardment prior to attack, the threat of being surrounded, the hill's reduced strategic importance since the introduction of the airplane, or a combination thereof, when Second Battalion arrived, the Butte of Vauquois was scarcely defended.
The 139th's Second Battalion rejoined its regiment at 9:30 a.m. south of Verennes. The four-year Battle of Vauquois was over.

In a landmark article, Summit (1983) discussed a typical pattern of experiences by childhood sexual abuse survivors. I would submit that many adult survivors have experienced some or all aspects of Childhood Sexual Abuse Accommodation Syndrome.
What's love got to do with it? The victim his hungry for it. The offender perverts that need to feed himself.
The victim may have acute psychosocial human needs that may not have been adequately met for a multitude of reasons. We, humans, are needy creatures… the need for connection, love, attachment, affirmation, nurture, parenting, wisdom, direction, encouragement as well as endless practical needs. The persuasive offender takes the time to "know" the victim's need.

The victim often comes to love, trust, and need the persuasive offender. Unwittingly consuming the narcotic of grooming, the victim has no idea of the offenders nefarious intent. By the time the offender has made his first sexual overt sexual move, he is virtually guaranteed unfettered access.

The victim typically understands the relationship in view of their lower estate, believing wrongly that the offender has her best interest in mind.

The power differential makes consent impossible.
The persuasive offender takes the time to gain the trust with the victim before he traumatically sexualizes the relationship, by preying on the legitimate human needs and hunger of the victim. This is a form of interpersonal violence, a source of trauma, and searing shame for the victim.
The victim may feel complicit because she held love for the offender. In some cases, the pre-abuse grooming/sexual abuse proper may have been the only food her hunger has ever known. Those human hungers do not go away they go underground.

AEM Forms allows form developers to seamlessly embed adaptive forms in an AEM Sites page or a web page hosted outside AEM. The embedded adaptive form is fully functional and users can fill and submit the form without leaving the page. It helps user remain in context of other elements on the web page and simultaneously interact with the form.
For information about embedding an adaptive form in an AEM Sites page, see Embed adaptive form in AEM Sites.
Read on for how to embed an adaptive form in an external web page.
Publish the adaptive form on AEM Publish instance.
On AEM author instance, go to AEM Web Console Configuration Manager at http://[server]:[port]/system/console/configMgr.
Find and click Apache Sling Referrer Filter to edit the configuration.
In the Allowed Hosts field, specify the domain where the web page resides. It enables the host to make POST requests to the AEM server. You can also use regular expression to specify a series of external application domains.
Insert the following code in the web page in which you want to embed the adaptive form.
// HTML API of jquery extracts the tags, updates the DOM, and evaluates the code embedded in the script tag.
Replace options.path with the publish URL of the adaptive form. If the AEM server is running on a context path, ensure that the URL includes the context path.
Replace options.dataRef with attributes to pass with the URL.
Replace options.themePath with the path to a theme other than the theme configured in the adaptive form. Alternatively, you can specify the theme path using the request attribute.
CSS_Selector is the CSS selector of the form container in which the adaptive form is embedded.
Header and footer in the original adaptive form are not included in the embedded form.
Drafts and submitted forms are available in the Drafts and Submissions tab in the Forms Portal.
Submit action configured on the original adaptive form is retained in the embedded form.
Adaptive form rules are retained and fully functional in the embedded form.
Experience targeting and A/B tests configured in the original adaptive form do not work in the embedded form.
If Adobe Analytics is configured on the original form, the analytics data is captured in Adobe Analytics server. However, it is not available in the Forms analytics report.
The external web page that embeds the adaptive form sends requests to the AEM server, which typically sits behind the firewall in a private network. To ensure that the requests are securely directed to the AEM server, it is recommended to set up a reverse proxy server.
Let's look at an example how you can set up an Apache 2.4 reverse proxy server without dispatcher. In this example, you will host the AEM server with /forms context path and map /forms for the reverse proxy. It ensures that any request for /forms on Apache server are directed to the AEM instance. This topology helps reduces the number of rules at the dispatcher layer as all request prefixed with /forms route to the AEM server.
Open the httpd.conf configuration file and uncomment the following lines of code. Alternatively, you can add these lines of code in the file.
Set up proxy rules by adding the following lines of code in the httpd-proxy.conf configuration file.
Replace [AEM_Instance] with the AEM server publish URL in the rules.
If you set up any other topology, ensure that you whitelist the submit, prefill, and other URLs at the dispatcher layer.
Ensure that the styling rules defined in the web page CSS do not conflict with the form object CSS. To avoid the conflicts, you can reuse the web page CSS in the adaptive form theme using AEM client library. For information about using client library in adaptive form themes, see Themes in AEM Forms.
Make the form container in the web page use the entire window width. It ensures that the CSS rules configured for mobile devices work without any changes. If the form container does not take the entire window width, you need to write custom CSS to make the form adapt to different mobile devices.
Use getData API to get the XML or JSON representation of form data in client.
Use unloadAdaptiveForm API to unload the adaptive form from HTML DOM.
Set up the access-control-origin header when sending response from AEM server.

Celebrity Couple Speeds Divorce Using Prenuptial Agreement - Duff & Kronfeld, P.C.
Celebrity couple Chris Pratt and Anna Faris have signed off on a settlement agreement, bringing them one step closer to a finalized divorce. The pair legally separated in August 2017 after eight years of marriage and officially filed for divorce in December. The couple has one child together, Jack, six years old. The couple has agreed to share custody of their child and their marital property will be split according to their prenuptial agreement. This, and the appointment of a private judge to finalize the split, has sped up the process of finalizing the divorce for the couple, who have remained on good terms since the split.
A prenuptial agreement is a contract signed by spouses prior to marriage that agrees upon how certain property will be divided, personal and real estate, and any other marital issues they wish to include in the case of future divorce, incapacitation, or death of one of the spouses. These agreements are signed before the marriage is official and goes into effect as soon as the couple is legally married. Virginia recognizes prenuptial agreements so long as the agreement is in writing and signed in contemplation of marriage. Prenuptial agreements are not recognized in Virginia if one spouse did not sign voluntarily or if the agreement is unconscionable to one of the spouses at the time that it is signed.
Virginia law does allow for the modification or termination of a prenuptial agreement so long as both spouses consent to the change and it is signed in writing. It is important to note the items that a prenuptial agreement generally does not cover: child custody, and child support. Any issues regarding children typically cannot be bargained around with a prenuptial agreement because the court makes those determinations through the lens of what is in the best interests of the child at the time of the divorce, which may be decades after the prenuptial agreement is signed. However, a prenuptial agreement can provide many benefits for a couple during and after the marriage.
There are many benefits to signing a prenuptial agreement prior to a marriage. For couples where one or both are coming into the marriage with significant assets or liabilities, it can be helpful to identify those as separate property in the agreement. Dividing property in a prenuptial agreement can also support an estate plan and avoid court involvement for probate. A prenuptial can dictate any special arrangements you and your spouse have regarding specific property or living arrangements, and the agreement can significantly speed up the process of divorce, which saves both spouses time, money, and stress in addition to reducing overall conflicts between the spouses, which is incredibly helpful if children are involved in the proceedings.
If you are interested in creating a prenuptial agreement for your marriage in the Fairfax area, our office is here to help. Call or contact us today at Duff & Kronfeld to speak with one of our experienced family law attorneys about creating a prenuptial agreement in Virginia.

Seeking Thomas Howard in Rotherham: local groundings for a global life
May 13, 2019 royalhistsoc Early Career Researchers, Historians Reflect, Historical Research Leave a comment
In the last weekend of April, as part of the program for Professor Elena Smilianskaia, a visiting fellow at the University of Exeter, Dr Julia Leikin, British Academy Postdoctoral Fellow, organized a trip to the town of Rotherham in South Yorkshire, to find out more about Thomas Howard, the third Earl of Effingham (1746-1791). In this post, Julia Leikin recounts the surprising results of the trip.
Howard is, on the surface, an elusive figure. Despite his military and political stature, and a wide range of eccentricities, Howard did not leave behind a substantial archive for historians to exploit. He does have a short entry on Wikipedia, but there is no biography nor even an entry in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography to document his military career, his support of the American colonies in the American Revolution, and his short-lived governorship of Jamaica. Neither is he named among Eton College's notable alumni.
But Thomas Howard is one of the notable figures who appears in my and Prof Smilianskaia's forthcoming annotated translation of Rear-Admiral John Elphinstone's Russian Faith, Honour & Courage Displayed in a Faithful Narrative of the Russian Expedition by Sea in the Years 1769 & 1770. Elphinstone offers a rare, first-hand account of the Russian voyage around the continent of Europe to the Eastern Mediterranean and offers a new perspective of his skirmishes with Ottoman forces, including the famous Battle of Çeşme (1770), alongside caustic descriptions of its participants. (This characterization does not extend to Thomas Howard, for whom Elphinstone was full of admiration.)
Elena and I were intrigued by Howard's participation in the First Archipelago Expedition (as the Russian voyage to the Eastern Mediterranean during the 1768-1774 Russian-Ottoman War is known) and his time in Russia during those same years. Why was the best-known English-language source on the expedition (the anonymous account listed under Further Readings below) dedicated to him? Guided by excerpts from his journal and a few mentions in diplomatic correspondence, we wanted to learn more about Effingham's life: what prompted him to become a volunteer in the Russian army during this war? How did his travels to the Levant affect him? Was he attracted by the romance of the Orlov revolt, a Greek uprising in the Peloponnese in 1770? Did this experience inspire support for the rebelling American colonies?
In our quest to learn more about this enigmatic figure, we turned to the local community in Rotherham. After an email exchange, we were able to arrange a visit. The local historians in Rotherham proved to be a rich source of information, best-placed to see all the pieces of the puzzle, and to assemble them in a way that reveals the bigger, richer picture of Thomas Howard's life. And they did so through local exhibits, lectures, and monuments. From our conversations over the weekend we were able to learn about the various aspects of Thomas Howard's life – something no academic study had been able to provide.
Thundercliffe Grange, Ecclesfield
cc-by-sa/2.0 – © Stephen Richards – geograph.org.uk/p/3442197.
Active in his local community, Thomas Howard left behind two buildings: his home, Thundercliffe Grange, and his hunting lodge with the tongue-in-cheek name of Boston Castle. Through a strong interest in the history of their community, the people we met had amassed a wealth of information about Effingham by combing through local records and local archives, and working with descendants of the family to fill in gaps. While Thomas Howard had not left behind a substantial archive of his own, references and allusions to him crop up in numerous letters, journals, and publications. Taking his life as a starting point, local activists endeavored to collect these pieces to explain the importance of the figure whose lands later comprised Rotherham's first public park.
The Rotherham buildings connected to Thomas Howard also have a remarkable and ongoing afterlife. Both have been revived through hard work, lobbying efforts, and unrelenting enthusiasm. Thomas Howard's home, Thundercliffe Grange has been a stately home, a mental asylum, and an NHS facility. In the 1980s, it became a co-housing scheme for twelve families living in the cooperative in extravagant Georgian quarters. The residents use the spacious social common areas and 22-acre property to host parties and lectures, in the spirit of the way these grounds would have been used by their original owners.
Meanwhile, Boston Castle, Thomas Howard's hunting lodge, has been restored to show its original exterior, and the surrounding grounds were spruced up to attract tourists and visitors. A modest exhibition inside the "castle" tells the story of its proprietor through sketches, artwork, and displays acquired from discrete sources. A longer narrative about the third Earl of Effingham appears on its website.
These innovative appropriations of historical structures keep the local community linked to the history of the place and to the historical figures whom the rest of us – as we focus on history from the archive – might forget.
But the work of local historians is also a reminder for those of us who try to chase the next grand narrative that history works on multiple scales. Historical events and large imperial projects are still the handiwork of individual historical actors who, in addition to their transnational, imperial designs, are also products of their localities; one influences the other, and it is not always clear how or in what way until we inquire into their lives beyond the single event in which we encounter them. And this is how we benefitted from the work on Thomas Howard that has been carried out in Rotherham: it provided insight into this eccentric figure who was otherwise just a name on the pages of our text, and revealed connections between several imperial projects: the Russian journey to the Eastern Mediterranean, the American Revolution, and Britain's Caribbean colonies, connections nobody knew existed.

And the Grammy Goes to...
The Grammy Award nominations were announced a couple of days ago, and as usual the big pop music nominees grabbed the headlines (you go, Eminem!). But my favorite category went by without so much as a notice beyond the theatre websites. No biggie! We all know a good thing when we hear it, right?
The good news is (at least in my opinion) that the Best Musical Show Album category has zero filler this year and it represents the fair spectrum of musicals that have played Broadway in the last year. But I'm not sure who votes for the winners. Is it people that are part of that category? Is it the entire voting population? Have the voters seen the productions, too and does that influence the voting? And do they vote on just the recording -quality of sound, music and lyrics - or the whole package - the CD booklet, the entire production of the album? (If you know the facts, please feel free to share with me and I'll post it!)
In the interest of full disclosure, I own only three of the five cast recordings nominated, and I have actually seen four of the five productions. So the opinions I offer here are somewhat incomplete, and for that I apologize.
Here are the nominees, in alphabetical order, and my thoughts:
Green Day's American Idiot
The link to my CD review is HERE.
The album plays as well, if not better than the actual show. Free of all the visual clutter, the CD allows you to really listen to the lyrics and the music. Tom Kitt's orchestrations are superb and really add to the music without making any of them sound like typical show tunes.
If it matters, the the CD itself is wonderfully produced with great pictures, and a booklet that includes liner notes and full lyrics.
Depending on who votes, the fact that this was once a rock album (or two) could be a plus if everyone votes, or a minus if the stuffy old school theatre folk only vote. If that is the case, the nomination is the award.
Unless musicians who know what they are hearing vote, Kitt's masterful contribution will again go unnoticed, much like his snub at the Tonys.
Personally, it is my favorite of the cast recordings nominated this year.
Fela!
I do not have the CD, nor have I seen the show. But based upon what I know...
The producers of the show, namely Will Smith and "Jay-Z" are popular and well-regarded in the music business, a real plus here.
The show itself got nearly unanimous raves.
Its political underpinnings could be a plus or a minus, again depending upon who votes.
On the down side, the style of music, minus the staging visuals may have very limited appeal.
And I certainly hope that when recorded, the cast sounded better than any of the live on TV performances I've seen.
Ultimately, the recording may lose out, due to its narrow appeal, despite its acclaim and musical producers. Or it could win just because of those very things!
A Little Night Music -The New Broadway Cast Recording
Amongst theatre goers, feelings about this production are sharply divided, which might come into play depending on who votes.
A Sondheim score is pretty much a given in terms of quality, so that isn't an issue, especially with a known score like this one.
What might play against it is that the score is already beloved in its original cast version with a very full orchestra. Despite what you think of the smaller orchestration (I like it), and no matter what you thought of it as played live in the theatre, purists and musicians alike may shy away from the less is more approach.
What it does have going for it is its completeness, including superbly acted short scenes from Angela Lansbury and company. It makes the whole thing more understandable, especially if you haven't seen the show.
I love the recording. But I don't think it is "showy" enough.
Promises, Promises - The New Broadway Cast Recording
I personally love this recording, but I see more "against" it than "for" it.
"For" it:
The performances are uniformly good, and fairly jump out of the speakers.
The orchestrations and pit voices are crystal clear and sound great.
Kristin Chenoweth is in terrific voice here, and Lord knows the girl is popular in any medium. And Sean Hayes also sounds great, which might surprise people who know him only from Will and Grace.
The production values of the CD and booklet are top rate, if that counts at all.
"Against" it:
The original cast recording is a classic, and that production is still remembered fondly.
This version suffers in comparison because, while it replicates (very well) the distinctive "Bacharach-David" sound, the fact that it is so crystal clear might actually work against it.
If the voters follow theater, they might be influenced by the controversy surrounding Ms. Chenoweth's performance, though the recording by itself offers a wonderful characterization and superb readings of the songs, including "I Say a Little Prayer" and "A House is Not a Home." Their addition to the score could be a plus or minus.
I have never taken this out of my CD player since I got it - that is how much I love it. But I'm thinking its chances are 50-50.
Sondheim on Sondheim
I saw this production, but I do not have the CD yet. I can, however, offer this:
As always, depending upon who votes, the styling of the songs, most of which veer far from their original interpretations, may be a plus for musicians who can appreciate the styling, the re-arrangements and out-of-context nature of the selections. For purists who like their Sondheim shot straight, this could be a turn-off.
If seeing the show plays into it at all, this show had the shortest run.
The singers - particularly Vanessa Williams and Barbara Cook are well-known and loved by the music community, Broadway and otherwise, which is a definite plus.
Not having heard it, but knowing that some of the Sondheim narration is included. How it plays on the CD, I can't say, but if they've worked it into the CD as well as they did the show, it is a definite plus.
And whether this should influence votes or not, Sondheim is a master, and he has been the focus of dozens of tributes, etc., to the extent that the public at large knows who he is and that he has hit an age milestone.
Will the fact that two of the five recordings have all to do with Stephen help or hurt? Will it split the vote and open the door for one of the other three nominees.
I have no idea how this will play out. But I can say that -even without hearing two of them - the quality of the selections this year is very high. It may be cliche, but cliches all have a grain of truth to them: all of these choices are winners! And think about the shows with CDs that did NOT get nominated...

The Rann Governments' budget has ignored the mental health crisis in South Australia by disregarding non-government organisations (NGOs) and regional areas, and delaying crucial capital works projects, Shadow Minister for Mental Health Michelle Lensink said today.
Ms Lensink said that mental health reform had been placed on the Rann Governments' backburner, as it ignores pleas from NGOs to make the $25 million one-off funding allocated in the 2005-2006 budget recurrent, provide essential programs and services in regional centres and continues to delay capital work projects by over a year.
"The Rann Government highlighted in both the 2005-2006 and 2006-2007 budgets that its target would be to reform mental health. They make promises each year but each year we see funding left unspent and no progress made," Ms Lensink said.
"This budget provides nothing that hasn't already been announced during the election campaign.
"NGOs have been lobbying the government to make the $25 million one-off funding recurrent to allow them to continue with vital programs and services. Because this has not taken place, NGOs are now uncertain whether these services will be able to continue, opening the system up to losses to crucial services and programs, especially in rural areas where there are scant services.
"Seven months later the Rann Government ignores it own opinion by only offering a specialised service at Glenside, and ignoring pleas from communities and farmers' groups to provide services in rural areas.
"I agree with Minister Zollo that especially now, people in rural areas who are facing even further hardship due to the drought, have special circumstances and need services that are accessible.
"Where was this in the budget? – It's just another example of the Rann Government's city-centric attitudes and beliefs that Adelaide ends at Gepps Cross and Darlington.
"There have also been long delays in critical capital works projects, with stage 2 of the Lyell McEwin project commencement being delayed eleven months and completion date fourteen months passed the 2005-2006 projections. The estimated costs of the project have also increased by nearly $11 million.
"The Rann Government has only provided the bare essentials for mental health services in South Australia.

The New Gold
Monday, 11/19/2007 15:47
Gold is pretty, shiny and ever-more expensive. But why...?
THERE'S A LOT of mystery surrounding the value of gold, but like anything else, it all comes down to supply and demand.
Understanding where those two trends are going right now is critical to understanding where the Gold Price is headed next.
Gold Demand
Even today, new gold-mining supplies are predominately used in making jewelry. Other uses include various industrial applications, dentistry, central bank hoards and, of course, Gold Bullion Investment.
So why is the Gold Price going up? Well, for starters, gold demand is rising.
Drawn on data from the World Gold Council, these charts lay out the picture. We've got solid 2007 numbers through to the third quarter, and it's easy enough to project year-end demand for gold.
Gold demand in the fourth quarter is generally 25% greater than during Q3, with minimal shift in sources of demand.
Obviously, the Dollar demand for gold is soaring. Net gold demand has nearly doubled since 2004, with steady growth in each of the past four years. This chart, of course, incorporates the rising Gold Price into the picture. So as prices rise, "Dollar demand" rises, too.
The tonnage chart flips that on its head and just looks at gross gold demand. On a tonnage basis, the numbers are less exciting, although demand is still up since 2004.
But which is more significant? The truth is, they're both interesting indicators. If tonnage demand were to rise significantly – say, if gold gained a new industrial usage – it would undoubtedly drive prices higher. And the fact that volume demand is trending up can't help but support prices in the meantime.
Meanwhile, Dollar demand is important too, as it offers a realistic tell on the value the world places in gold as a resource.
Just as interesting as the net numbers, however, is a chart examining where gold demand is coming from. Here, we're seeing a significant shift.
Jewelry demand is declining steadily on a percentage basis while Gold ETF use is rising, suggesting more and more investors are using exchange-traded gold funds – rather than jewelry – as a store of value.
Understanding gold demand is key to understanding the Gold Market. So let's look below the surface and see what's really happening.
Gold Jewelry Demand
When you talk gold jewelry, you're talking India. It leads the charge toward all things yellow and shiny as the top importer of gold (715 metric tons last year). What happens in India sends ripples through the entire market.
The driving force behind India's love affair with gold is the festival season, which happens in the latter part of each year. The largest of these festivals is Diwali, or the Festival of Lights, which recently ended (Nov. 9th). Gold is a traditional purchase during this festival, when Lakshmi, the Hindu goddess of wealth, is worshipped.
Unsurprisingly (since everyone's already partying), Diwali marks prime time for Indian weddings, too. In India, Oct. to Feb. is the equivalent of June in the Hamptons. The tradition of dowries is very much alive and well in Indian culture, and parents often give their daughters gold jewelry as a form of savings, as well as for wearing on special occasions.
As you'd expect, Indian Gold Consumers are extremely well-informed and discriminating consumers. They know the price of gold (which is posted everywhere) and are reluctant to spend money on gold when prices are high. Luckily, while the Gold Price has been high in New York, the Dollar has been weak, so consumers in India have been less affected. Volatility, however, has caused chaos.
Beyond India come Turkey, Italy and China, rounding out the top four largest consumers of gold. With China's strong economic growth and an increase in disposable income, demand for gold is likely rising, although research and hard data on Chinese spending on luxury goods is spotty at best.)
Gold in Dentistry, Electronics & Other Industrial Uses
From dental uses to electronics, gold is used in all sorts of places as an industrial input. But demand outside electronics has been essentially flat, and gold use in microchips has risen only by a couple of percentage points in the past three years.
Still, technological advances could change all of that. Back in May, there was discussion of using gold in diesel catalytic converters as an alternative to the more expensive platinum/palladium staples. Despite being cheaper, gold converters might reduce exhaust emissions by up to 40%. It seems like a win-win situation, and if the car manufacturers go for it, industrial demand for gold should rise while the platinum group metals fall.
Gold: Physical Investment
During the last nine months, increasing in Gold Prices have been almost universally attributed to investors, speculators and safe-haven goldbugs. But demand for physical gold has actually remained fairly stable, increasing only slightly.
There are many ways to physically own the metal, and just as many – if not more –websites out there explaining the whys and hows of gold ownership. But demand for vaulted, mattressed and coined gold essentially hasn't changed much over the years.
Gold ETFs – Exchange Traded Gold Funds
Exchange-traded funds are where the bulk of the action now comes. The fastest-growing gold demand segment (outside of BullionVault's Ongoing Growth), Gold ETFs have jumped from virtually nonexistent in 2003 to 9% of gold demand by the end of 2007. That is quite a bit of gold being taken out of circulation!
Forbes Magazine reports that "inflows into physically backed ETFs have risen by 32.5% this year," according to a daily research report by Barclays Capital. That added 205 metric tonnes to gold demand.
But there's no big story here. Gold ETFs have created a substitute for physical Gold Bullion Investment. The challenge for the market is that it's just as easy to sell an ETF as it is to buy one. If investors bail out, the ETF fund managers must sell their gold (almost) immediately, and for all intents and purposes, they must sell on the open market.
The implication is greater flows from institutional funds is higher volatility – volatility driven by something even more fickle than the predilections of Indian brides.
Gold Supply Shrinking as Gold Demand Rises
Of course, you can't understand any commodity by only looking at demand, and gold supply constraints are an issue today, even with gold demand at all-time highs.
Here at Hard Assets Investor, we've talked about Peak Gold before – and it is going to happen sometime, as gold is a finite material. Some say that it has already happened.
South Africa's Gold Mines are producing their lowest levels since 1932. Just like oil, extraction costs are rising as gold becomes harder to find and extract. The only bright spot is China, which has been ramping up mining and may soon pass the United States as the second-largest supplier of gold. China may even take over the No.1 slot from South Africa, due to that country's declining production.
In fact, tight supply and $800-an-ounce gold may even lead to some Long-Closed Gold Mines in California Re-Opening, though mining companies have a tough road ahead of them to convince small-town governments and environmental protection groups that it is in their best interests.
Hell hath no fury like a town meeting. Of course, if Gold Prices now seek to recover heights like those of the 1980s, it will be a much easier sell.

8 - 23 March, with a special Launch event on Friday 1 March 2019.
The 35th Moat Festival featured five full-length theatre productions, as well as a work in development cabaret, the Moonlight Cinema, and a closing night one-woman show. The festival showcased some exceptional emerging talent on campus with each event taking place on the La Trobe University Bundoora campus.
We launched Moat 2019 with an official season launch. It featured a full performance of the show Creatures of the Deep, written, produced and performed by La Trobe Student Theatre and Film alumni (a Picked Last for Sport production).

Fifteen-year-old Vernon Gregory Little is in trouble. And it has something to do with the recent massacre of sixteen students at his high school. The town wants vengeance and encouraged by a clamouring media, blame is laid at Vernon's feet. He escapes the quirky Texan backwater of his home town and finds himself after some bizarre adventures in Mexico where he hopes to re-unite with the divine Taylor Figueroa. It is a darkly funny and scathing portrayal of America in an age of trial by media, materialism, and violence.
Based on the 2003 Booker Prize winning novel by DBC Pierre this highly theatrical adaptation featuring a selection of classic country songs interlaced throughout. A Melbourne premiere, it was performed in the beautiful outdoor Moat Theatre.

You know these people, whether you've walked passed them on the street, served them at work, or even have a relative who is similar. If The Truth Be Told celebrates the average Aussie men and women and through these intricate monologues we get an insight to the good times and bad times that many of us can face through our life time.

Two women are unknowingly the last people to see the Tasmanian tiger alive. Around a crackling campfire, together they tell a story of extinction, of human intervention and neglect, and of hope. Perhaps it is already too late but perhaps it is never too late. They Saw A Thylacine is being performed for the first time since the original authors themselves starred as feisty tracker Beatie and impassioned taxidermist Alison. We hope we can show you what the thylacine meant to them.

Dream Play. Photography by Melissa Viola.
Mae West was an American actress, singer, screenwriter, comedian, and playwright known for her bawdy double entendres and breezy sexual independence. In 1927, she spent ten days in prison, charged with "obscenity and corrupting the morals of youth" for the play she had written, directed, and was performing in. The Drag is inspired by her work.
A party in the 1920s is our window into the lives of New Yorkers and newlyweds Roland and Clair. The play delves into a world of decadence and ruptured mundanity, exploring strained relationships and the pain that comes with having to hide who you are.

This is not what this cabaret was supposed to be.
Jess Cook is a recent graduate of La Trobe University, and this was her first entry into the Moat Festival. But hey, better late than never!
Lovesick takes an unexpected journey into a mind tainted by romance, but doesn't want to admit it to herself. It's a tale of fleeting crushes, contradictory thoughts and sordid love affairs, told through anecdotes of past and present, and music.
Lovesick is a developmental piece for Moat, born through the curveballs life throws at us. It is raw, it is real, it is contradictory and it is often rife with saccharine confessions that bring on copious amounts of self-loathing.
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. What the bible forgets to mention is that also in the beginning God decided she was bored and created LIARNESS! The goddess of being barely a queen. This show will include laughter, tears, and stories of a 23 year old drag queen trying to make her mark in this world.
Check out the full 2019 program below!

Can the IMF accept COVID-19-struck Lebanon's 'reform-for-support' request despite concerns over Hezbollah and Bassil?
By John Grogan
Lebanese poet Khahil Gibran wrote in the 1920's: "My Lebanon is a serene mountain sitting between the sea and the plains, like a poet between one eternity and another."
When I first met the Chair of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Lebanese Parliament Yassine Jaber on a delegation to the Westminster Parliament in 2007, it seemed that after years of civil war, it was possible once more to dream of Lebanon's development. When I next met him late in 2019 leading another delegation to London it was against a background of a weakened and more divided nation counting the cost of playing host to at least one and a half million refugees from Syria. The economy is now in free fall with a massive decline in remittances and the value of the currency. The streets have resonated to the cries of the young demanding political and economic reform.
Lebanon's Prime Minister Hassan Diab is hoping for a bailout from the International Monetary Fund (IMF). Diab took over after the power vacuum that followed Saad Hariri's resignation in December and he is backed politically by Hezbollah and Gebran Bassil, President of the Free Patriotic Movement. Mr Diab hopes that foreign donors will release the $11 billion pledged at a Paris conference in 2018, which was conditional on economic reforms. The proposed deal is not dissimilar to previous promises of reform made by Lebanon. But can the IMF strike a deal with the Hezbollah-Bassil-Diab axis? The question has a particular resonance in the United Kingdom which last year prescribed the entirety of Hezbollah as a terrorist organisation ending the distinction between its political and military wings. Economic sanctions have followed .
While Lebanon has been in perpetual stalemate in terms of political power, the Iran-backed group Hezbollah has been amassing power and influence. That influence includes their relationship with the Prime Minister and is facilitated by Gebran Bassil. Hezbollah will have a voice on any IMF deal and they will have concerns. Reforms that end subsidies, build financial transparency and regulate how the banks finance the government will be damaging to Hezbollah's control over much of the country and the accompanying money laundering . Equally, the IMF and foreign donors will have major concerns about essentially doing a deal with Hezbollah.
Jeffrey Feltman, who is the John C. Whitehead Visiting Fellow in International Diplomacy at the Brookings Institute, explains: "What distinguishes this plan from previous reform pitches is the fact that this government rests on the support of only one side of Lebanon's political spectrum — Hezbollah and its allies. Previous proposed support packages for Lebanon were implicitly (and often not-so-implicitly) designed to strengthen the legitimate state institutions relative to non-state actors, especially Hezbollah. As this government relies exclusively on Hezbollah and its allies for its parliamentary support, that traditional justification for external assistance no longer works. The challenge for Diab will be to persuade donors that this plan does not solidify Hezbollah's dominance in an increasingly fractured and dysfunctional, if not non-existent, state."
Jeffrey Feltman goes on to add: "One fears that, in a déjà vu sense, this reform plan will face one of two unpalatable fates: Either it, like its many predecessors in Lebanon, will never be implemented, or — given the unprecedented dominance of Hezbollah and its allies — it will be implemented in a distorted, partisan way, even if that is not what Diab and his ministers intend. In either case, any interest by outside donors to help evaporates." He also explains how Hezbollah has been attempting to establish full control over the country's remaining hard currency, using the financial crisis to strengthen its parallel economy at a time when Lebanese banks are suffering a serious currency shortage.
The Lebanese Central Bank like the Lebanese Army has traditionally had a reputation of being above sectarianism but is now very much part of the political struggle.
Habib Ghadar of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy argues this struggle became visible in early April when Hezbollah tried to appoint some of its allies to key financial posts: namely, four open vice governor positions at the central bank, and top spots on the Banking Control Commission, which oversees the daily operations of private lenders. She notes that Hezbollah already controls the Finance Ministry and Interior Ministry, so infiltrating these banking institutions solidify its bid for financial control . She explains that the Hezbollah plan was disrupted when former prime minister Saad Hariri—apparently under pressure from new U.S. ambassador Dorothy Shea—threatened to pull his allies from parliament if the cabinet approved the appointments. Since then, Hezbollah has orchestrated a public campaign against the central bank governor with the apparent aim being to replace the struggling financial and banking system with their own parallel system based on a cash economy. Ghaddar also alerts us that Hezbollah likely has its eye on assets that the Central Bank owns, including two potentially lucrative companies (Middle East Airlines and Casino Du Liban) and vast amounts of land, plus the control of the country's foreign exchange reserves, including the $13 billion in gold stored at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.The central bank and the banking system in general should of course not be above criticism particularly at a time of economic crisis. The lot of the Lebanese people is unlikely to be improved, however, by the replacement of central bank independence with that of Hezbollah control.
The IMF and foreign donors will have to tread very carefully as they decide their course with Lebanon. Of course some be tempted to just give the money and try to play their part in settling the turbulence that Lebanon is suffering. Equally there are so many demands on the funds of international donors that Lebanon's Government cannot assume they will be top of the in-tray.
Back in December soon after leaving the UK MP Yassine Jaber accurately summed up the mood of the international community: "They have basically told us, 'we still have you in mind, but please, for heaven's sake, let us help you by you helping yourselves,' " he told Al Jazeera.
Jaber added that Lebanon is at a critical point where its politicians must regain the confidence of the people, bank depositors, investors and the international community, or the "uprising will become a revolution of the hungry and the unemployed, and they won't leave anything untouched."
If anything such feelings will have intensified over recent months. The IMF will be all too aware that Hezbollah and its allies are tightening their control and in such a context, promised reforms could be meaningless and Lebanon will continue its sad descent, even $11 billion dollars later. To give a future to their children and grandchildren, many of whom have been protesting on the street, Lebanese politicians need to step up to the mark and quickly.
The author, John Grogan, is a British Labour Party politician, who was the Member of Parliament for Selby between 1997 and 2010 and for Keighley between 2017 and 2019.

Q: How get publish_pages permission, to post on own business Facebook page using Graph API? I am making a server-to-server Facebook 'app' so that some of the news articles we post to our own website can be posted on our own Facebook page too. I have read 14 squintillion pages of documentation, but cannot find how to get the publish_pages permission for myself or the app.
I have coaxed the app through the review process, and got the manage_pages permission allowed. I thought I had to submit all over again, to get publish_pages too, but the documentation says no. Apparently anyone appearing in the Roles for the app can grant the necessary permissions.

I have set myself up as admin for the app, yet when trying to get a token using the Facebook developer tools, I am never shown publish_pages. So even if I create a non-expiring token (my end goal) it is rejected with a message about the lack of publish_pages.

Shouldn't I be seeing more permissions listed here?

I'm sure I've read all relevant parts of the official documentation, plus StackOverflow answers and several unofficial walk-throughs, but I cannot work out what I am missing...

A:
I thought I had to submit all over again, to get publish_pages too,

You do.

but the documentation says no. Apparently anyone appearing in the Roles for the app can grant the necessary permissions.

That is for apps in dev mode. Any of those users can grant the permission to your app, while it is in dev mode. But whatever you publish through your app, will only be visible to this group of users only, and not to the general public.
For the content to be visible to everyone, your app needs to be in live mode.
Before you can ask people - even those with a role in the app - for publish_pages when your app is in live mode, you need to submit that permission for review.

Strange Trivia About the Artists on the Stranger Things Soundtrack
Entertainment TV Music Spotify Stranger Things The Clash Jefferson Airplane Toto The Bangles Modern English Joy Division Corey Hart Dawn The Smiths David Bowie
Listen up, strangers!
Netflix's Stranger Things has the makings of a great sci-fi series: sleepy town where unexplained things always seem to happen? Check. A mysterious child-abducting monster terrorizing the town? Check. Awkward yet endearing characters? Yep. Awesome soundtrack? Double check.
The show's set in 1983, so musical scorers Kyle Dixon and Michael Stein, who are both members of the Austin band S U R V I V E, featured some of the '60s, '70s and '80s greats. They also penned the creeptastic opening theme, which they will perform live for the first time at the Unsound Festival in Krakow, Poland in October.
As we wait, fingers drumming on the desk, for any updates about the next season, Spotify put together a Season 1 playlist. It's a who's who of seminal bands and hitmakers of that nostalgic time, so for those born in the aughts, you're in for a cool treat!

Band bio tidbit:
The Clash is the definitive English band that set the bar high for punk rock acts of today. Singing about political injustice, police brutality and racial equality in their songs like Rock the Casbah, London Calling and White Riot, The Clash had a radical approach to making music. Undeterred by losing their music cred after signing a deal with CBS Records, they made their best albums under the British record label.
Strange trivia:
During The Clash's White Riot Tour set in London, the audience became so aggressive and rowdy, they ripped the seats off the floor.

Sextet psychedelic rockers Jefferson Airplane were a mainstay at big music festivals in the '60s. This San Francisco band had a string of hits like Somebody to Love and White Rabbit of which both earned rankings on Rolling Stone's list of 500 Greatest Hits of All Time, but internal power struggles divided their direction and music. After seven years, the band broke up, with some members reforming under different names like Hot Tuna, Jefferson Starship and KBC Band.
"Jefferson Airplane" is the slang for a roll of paper used to hold a marijuana joint that's too short to hold properly. The band denied rumors their name came from the term, saying it was one of their friends who came up with the silly name.

American rock band Toto was an instant success when they formed in the late '70s and made their self-titled debut album. By 1982, they were Grammy winners, nabbing six big awards for their fourth album, Toto IV, including Album of the Year and Record of the Year for Rosanna.
The band got their name from the Latin phrase "in toto," which means "all- encompassing" in English.
IMAGE CREDIT: Facebook/The Bangles
Eighties radio airwaves would not be the same without The Bangles. This all-female band released hit after hit during their heyday. Walk Like an Egyptian was the number one record in 1987 while Eternal Flame was at the top of the charts in 1989. The Bangles were so huge, they were featured on the'80s cult classic movie The Goonies.
Vocalist Susanna Hoffs recorded Eternal Flame in the buff after producer Davitt Sigerson convinced her to follow Olivia Newton-John, who was believed to give amazing performances while singing naked as she recorded a song.

This new wave band from Essex, England refused to be associated with pop music at first. But after they broke into mainstream music with hits like Hands Across the Sea, Ink and Paper and I Melt With You, they didn't mind the limelight. Modern English is still active today, touring the U.S.to promote their Mesh & Lace album.
I Melt With You ranked number 7 on the Billboard charts and on VH1's 100 Greatest One Hit Wonders of the '80s.
I Melt With You

Despite the band's melancholic musical themes, critics hailed Joy Division's sound as a poetic breath of fresh air from the angst-driven rock hits that dominated the airwaves. Joy won music critics' praises after releasing the exquisite Unknown Pleasures album, gaining more fans with the release of their second album Closer. By the time they became mainstream, lead singer Ian Curtis was spiraling into deep depression. Eight months after the band came out with their biggest hit Love Will Tear Us Apart, Curtis hanged himself.
While performing, Curtis would sometimes do his signature move, the "dead fly" dance, where he flung his arms around in an awkward semicircular motion. People close to him believed it was actually an effect of his epileptic fits.

Artist bio tidbit:
Grammy nominee for Best New Artist in 1984, Corey Hart was a sensation when he released his first album First Offense. The Canadian singer-songwriter boasts nine U.S. Billboard Top 40 singles, 30 Canadian Top 40 hits and has sold over 16 million records worldwide.
Corey and some music producers wore sunglasses while working in a studio to prevent the cold air blowing directly at their face from drying their eyes. The singer was inspired by the moment and started to sing the random lyrics, "I wear my sunglasses at night."

Dawn featuring Tony Orlando

Singer Tony Orlando didn't gain much success as a soloist so when the opportunity came to record and perform with backup singers, he formed Dawn. This American band was behind several '70s hits like Candida, Knock Three Times and He Don't Love You (Like I Love You).
Tie a Yellow Ribbon 'Round the Ole Oak Tree, which was written by Irwin Levine and L. Russell Brown, was first offered to Ringo Starr but the Beatles drummer's management at Apple Records thought it was "ridiculous" and passed it on.

According to a 2002 poll by NME, The Smiths was the "most influential artist ever." True enough, a lot of critically acclaimed bands like Blur, Radiohead and Arcade Fire cite The Smiths as one of their musical inspirations.
Morrissey hates his first name, Steven, so much that he insists on being called by his surname.

This English singer-songwriter was a music maverick on the studio, creating sound styles way beyond the music of his time, and on stage, where he gave an all-out performance complete with metallic makeup, asymmetrical leotards and outrageous platform boots. David is one of the coolest musical oddities this side of the universe.
Bowie's different-colored eyes, the left is blue while the right is black, were a result of a fight with a boy when he was young. His schoolmate socked him in the eye, scratching the surface of Bowie's left eyeball and leaving the iris permanently dilated, a condition known as anisocoria.

Q: Batch script - Starting EXE fails
As a personal project, I'm trying to make a very easy launcher from a batch script (it and games folder reside in the root of E:\) asking what games you wanna play, and when selected, the game is launched via:
:: my/game/path.exe
   Start "" E:/DNL/LR2/LR2.exe

*

*This works for most of my games, but for some, it doesn't work at all; I can see it executed (my games are old and the resolution changes), but it dies very quickly; if I launch the games manually, they work fine.

*I receive no errors and think the problem might be the game's path, trying both relative and absolute paths with no success; I think the problem is the script is located outside of the game folder, as placing it within the game folder and executing the start command works fine.

I have no clue how to make it work from outside the folder and thought about moving it within folder using cd; Is this the correct way to navigate to the games folder?

A: If the batch file works correctly inside the folder, then you should cd into it, as you mentioned.
You should use cd /D if you cd into another partition, as the /D switch takes care of actually switching drives; if you only use cd, you'll have to change the partition manually:
C:\> cd M:
M:\

# Notice how I'm still actually on C:
C:\> M:
M:\>

A: Besides, @hextech's helpful answer, pushd can be used to push directories (while cd /d is a good solution, it does not support UNC paths yet), but pushd will work for both UNC paths and different partitions; you can use popd to switch back to the past directory.
Also, the path you are using is a Linux format, with the correct Windows path being: E:\DNL\LR2\LR2.exe.

Stephen Boyd, a Rolls-Royce and a Chariot!
January 10, 2018 February 20, 2018 ~ Stephen Boyd Blog
In early 1963 Stephen Boyd, a man who loved his automobiles, became the proud owner of a brand new Rolls-Royce, which apparently was delivered to him while he was filming "The Fall of the Roman Empire" in Spain. The two humorous anecdotes below about Boyd's new car are from the Los Angeles Times.
"Chariot Race Champ Drives Rolls-Royce"
Feb 17, 1963 Los Angeles Times
Stephen Boyd has become the unchallenged modern chariot champion. Because of his work in "Ben-Hur" and the currently shooting "Fall of the Roman Empire," Boyd qualifies as the Sterling Moss of the chariot set and the Donald Campbell of the Roman racers. "Five years ago I made 'Ben-Hur' and people still call me 'Messala,'" the actor said. "It makes you wonder how far you can go in life without a chariot. I figure they have taken me farther than a conscientious Roman Red Arrow messenger." A Rolls-Royce owner off the set, Steve says chariots compare favorably to modern vehicles as far as safety is concerned. "The auto driver forgets he has a hundred times more horses in his hands than the charioteer, but he isn't one-tenth as careful."
Stephen Boyd shows off his chariot riding skills during the making of "The Fall of the Roman Empire" in early 1963 in Spain.
May 19, 1963 Los Angeles Times
Hardy passers-by braving a rugged location of Samuel Bronston's "Fall of the Roman Empire" in the Guadarrama mountains of Spain, witnessed the arrival of a brand new Rolls-Royce from which alighted two royal Romans in full regalia and a man in a red snow suit. They were actors Stephen Boyd, owner of the car, Christopher Plummer and director Anthony Mann. En route, Boyd had extolled the virtues of his new auto, not even sparing that bit about hearing only the clock. As he and Plummer mounted their chariots, Mann growled to Boyd : "This AD 180, two horsepower, no stand-up top sports coupe is hardly as smooth running as your Rolls. But if you don't give me a more exciting ride in it than you just did in that gold-plated hearse, I'll let you lose this one too…just as you did in 'Ben-Hur.'"
