Bill Ryder-Jones, Trudy: The Arts Club, Liverpool
By Del Pike on	 11th March 2016 Live reviews
Bill Ryder-Jones
As Bill Ryder-Jones faces a hero's hometown welcome, Getintothis' Del Pike is there to witness the event in all its glory.
It's too easy to call Bill Ryder-Jones a Merseyside hero, but the sentiment is unavoidable when faced with the crowd who filled the Arts Club tonight. Claustrophobic doesn't come close but the warmth that emanated from the slowly swaying sea of bodies was pure joy. Everyone was here because they love a bit of Bill.
Trudy have their fans too and thus received much praise in their short support slot. After a set that crumbled a little at The Buyers Club earlier this year, the Liverpool three piece were much tighter tonight and couldn't fail to hold interest. Vocalist/guitarist Oliver Taylor has more charm and stage presence than anyone could wish for, and the band have a tight bunch of songs under their belt that they describe as 50s mutant pop. Each song begins with a mysterious, echoey retro vibe and then descends into a hard edged style that is undeniably influenced by The Libertines.
Taylor's staccato vocals are at times indecipherable but they make for a wonderful sound. Trudy are a rigid unit, all sharing harmonies and pulling together for maximum power. In quieter moments, Taylor's strained voice and distant guitar has shadows of King Krule and even The XX, but these moments are brief as each song descends into sublime chaos. In the studio, songs like Baby I'm Blue sound much softer than when let loose on stage. Daydream and Melanie provided high points in the set and it was all over too soon. With a little spit and polish, Trudy could well be a Liverpool favourite in a very short time.
Chatting to folk in the break it becomes clear that a Bill Ryder-Jones gig is un-missable and most people are clocking up their Bill gigs and comparing different performances. The room fills quickly and although jubilant, the audience are relatively sedate, intent on hanging onto his every word.
Bill is on fine form and is at once glad to be here, bantering from the offset with faces in the crowd before launching into Catherine and Huskisson; a name check to the city streets and a brilliant single to start the set. Frenetic cries of "Baby baby baby" suggest an upbeat performance tonight but it is a mixed bag of fragile ballads and bursts of irresistible energy that weave in and out of the session. Let's Get Away From Here establishes that the set will be dominated by tracks from the West Kirby County Primary album, and this pleases the majority of fans tonight including a fair few teenage girls swooning in the middle.
What is most refreshing about Bill's approach is the complete break away from the style of The Coral, unlike Guy Garvey whose solo album last year could easily have been any Elbow album. Bill has created a completely new musical persona and in some ways attracted a much different audience. His breaking point delivery is always beautiful, even in its most raw moments and places him perfectly alongside his Domino label-mates Julia Holter and Martin Courtney in that singer songwriter with that special something category.
Bill's band, that includes By the Sea's Liam Power on guitar, leave for a while to allow a short quartet of solo songs including By Morning I from A Bad Wind Blows in My Heart. There are some glimmering moments of Michael Head in Bill's voice during the song – Is it too much to suggest he may almost be the Michael Head of his generation? The poetry is certainly there, the delivery just less ravaged.The similarity is emphasised by the pair's beautiful duet at Islington's Union Chapel a couple of years back.
Read about this amazing collaboration here
Put it Down Before You Break It may be the stand-out moment of the evening, but the serenity of the moment is but a memory as the band re-appear and dive headlong into a surprisingly raucous reading of Two Singles To Birkenhead, the obvious crowd pleaser and bringer of new fans this evening. Relatively new song Liam Said It Better is unsurprisingly dedicated to band mate Liam Power and Bill admits it is his By the Sea rip-off. His under the influence sequence also includes a great cover of a track by Glasgow's Lightships, a band who Bill has toured with and clearly respects.
The set concludes with three favourites, the painfully perfect Daniel, Wild Roses and Satellites, with its bombastic opening and rollercoaster narrative. There's no encore and Bill exits the stage at exactly the right point leaving behind a perfect set list with absolutely no filler. Everyone finds a face they recognise and we all agree that it was indeed a brilliant gig. The boy can do no wrong and the audience file out 100% satisfied.

Coastal populations are booming, making access to the water a national problem. Virginia Sea Grant is collaborating with several other programs to bring together stakeholders from communities around the country to share local solutions to preserving public access and working waterfronts.
This fall at Deltaville Yachting Center, volunteers gathered to help the owners find a more natural way of combatting coastal erosion. See how they did it in this slideshow.
One Eastern Shore aquaculture operation is pioneering the use of alternative energy solutions in Virginia fish farming—and hoping to set an example for other marine businesses in Virginia and beyond.
Marine Recreation Specialist Jon Lucy retired in June after 38 years of service with VIMS and the Marine Advisory Program. Working with Claude Bain of the Virginia Marine Resources Commission (VMRC), Lucy cofounded the Virginia Game Fish Tagging Program. This angler-assisted research program trains recreational fishermen to collect scientific data about the fish they pursue. As Jon's successor, I joined him on a tagging trip in November on the Elizabeth River. We had a spectacular day for fishing and succeeded in tagging more than a dozen fish. I took the opportunity to ask Jon about his experience with the tagging program.
About 100 Virginia Sea Grant researchers, staff, and partners gathered in Richmond on February 2 to share resources and experiences relating to their work with VASG. The symposium was followed by the Virginia Seafood Council's annual Seafood and Wine Reception. VASG director Troy Hartley's "State of Sea Grant" report can be viewed below, and more information is available on the Symposium web page.
Twelve projects researching Virginia's coastal and marine environments will receive financial support through Virginia Sea Grant's research program. The funding totals $535,899, with about $192,000 supporting graduate students, $233,000 supporting preliminary investigations, and $111,000 supporting large-scale research.

TRD Insights: Google isn't coming back to the office until at least next summer. Here's all the space at stake
Search giant's decision could signal the end of its 20-year quest for more office space in coastal cities.
New York Insights /

In December 2018, Google CFO Ruth Porat announced plans for the search giant's new 1.7 million-square-foot campus in Manhattan's Hudson Square, a move that would allow the company to "more than double the number of Googlers in New York over the next 10 years." It was the latest in a series of billion-dollar moves that had made Google one of the most consequential office tenants in core U.S. office markets, with a large presence in New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago.
Now, the company has announced plans to extend remote work until at least July 2021. The decision applies to nearly all 200,000 employees of Google parent Alphabet, and covers workers in most of the company's major offices, including its Mountain View, California, headquarters and offices in the U.S., United Kingdom, India, Brazil and elsewhere.
Google's decision could signal the reversal of the company's 20-year quest for more office space in coastal cities it saw as hubs of talent. It could also portend the upheaval of office markets in metros across the globe, with some speculating that its competitors could soon follow suit.
This is a big deal since Google is a lot smarter than our government: The move will affect the vast majority of the roughly 200,000 full-time and contract employees across Google parent Alphabet, and is sure to pressure other technology giants https://t.co/v69DZ4V4tT via @WSJ

There will be a big ripple effect from the Google announcement extending WFH to July 2021. Other companies will match. WFH, or hybrid, is the new normal.
— Spencer Rascoff (@spencerrascoff) July 27, 2020
Since the turn of the century, the search engine titan has steadily expanded its footprint on both coasts in the United States, starting in Silicon Valley and then supersizing space commitments on the East Coast.
In December 1999, the company inked its first Manhattan lease at 1440 Broadway in Times Square. Google grew its footprint at that location to 170,000 square feet over the next several years. Later, it signed a pair of mammoth leases at RXR Realty and Youngwoo & Associates' Pier 57 project, and in late 2018 announced it would bring 7,000 employees and invest $1 billion into a trio of properties totaling 1.7 million square feet in Hudson Square. All told, as of November 2018, Google occupied 3.35 million square feet and owned 4.7 million square feet in New York City, according to Yardi Matrix data.
In Los Angeles, Google joined a tech pilgrimage to "Silicon Beach," leasing up to 100,000 square feet at the Frank Gehry-designed Binoculars Building in Venice in 2011. Five years later, the company tripled its LA footprint by leasing the entirety of a 319,000 square-foot former airplane hangar in Playa Vista known as the "Spruce Goose."
How Google became a Manhattan landlord

These office landlords are most exposed to Big Tech's #WFH movement
That appetite for office space wasn't strictly coastal. Google's lease commitments in downtown Chicago total 1.3 million square feet, and its decision to move its midwest headquarters to the Fulton Market triggered a tidal wave of amenity-laden office development in the neighborhood.
The company's real estate strategy has evolved away from leasing to ownership. Google bought 111 Eighth Avenue in the Meatpacking District for a record $1.8 billion in 2010, only to eclipse that deal eight years later by purchasing the Chelsea Market building for $2.4 billion. It is not clear how much space Google has taken up at its Eighth Avenue property, but one source said it could be as high as 800,000 square feet.
Those New York deals weren't isolated events, but rather part of a series of acquisitions that grew Alphabet's global real-estate portfolio to a valuation of $14.5 billion as of March 2018, according to Real Capital Analytics.
After Facebook, Twitter and Shopify announced remote-work plans, researchers and industry analysts published a flurry of reports and think pieces focused on what a corporate exodus could mean for major cities. The conclusions have been mixed, with some predicting urban demise and others urban resilience.
One survey from Redfin found that 61 percent of New York City residents would leave the city if they no longer had to commute to the office, citing the high cost of living as the chief reason for their departure. Before the coronavirus pandemic, 14 percent of survey respondents were working remotely most of the time. During the shutdowns, the share of those working from home shot up to 76 percent. In the San Francisco Bay area, that figure is 85 percent, though the transition to remote work has not been an entirely smooth one.
By contrast, a report from the Brookings Institution found that migration to downtowns nationwide has grown for decades, a trend that predates many tech companies' move into major cities, and one that's not likely to stop once they leave.

Adelina Amouteru is a survivor of the blood fever. A decade ago, the deadly illness swept through her nation. Most of the infected perished, while many of the children who survived were left with strange markings. Adelina's black hair turned silver, her lashes went pale, and now she has only a jagged scar where her left eye once was. Her cruel father believes she is a malfetto, an abomination, ruining their family's good name and standing in the way of their fortune. But some of the fever's survivors are rumored to possess more than just scars—they are believed to have mysterious and powerful gifts, and though their identities remain secret, they have come to be called the Young Elites.

There is a great deal of death in this exhibition but, ultimately, it is an overwhelming lust for life that permeates every room

12 March – 6 September 2020
(Due to the coronavirus, all Tate's four galleries are temporarily closed until further notice)
by BETH WILLIAMSON
This exhibition takes the personal story of Andy Warhol (1928-87) as its starting point. That story threads through an exhibition that considers Warhol's subject matter, his investigations of different materials and his crafting of a distinctive public persona. It asks how this personal story helped to shape his view of the world and the artworks he made.

Warhol was born Andrew Warhola in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the son of immigrant parents from what is now Slovakia. He was raised in the Catholic religion, took art lessons at his local museum and drew with his mother, Julia. From a young age, he was entranced by religious imagery and Hollywood movies. When Warhol's father died in 1942, he left money for him to go to college where he studied pictorial design. Warhol moved to New York in 1949, aged 21, to work as a commercial illustrator. It was at this time that he began to fashion his persona. He dropped the "a" from his surname, underwent plastic surgery on his nose, and began wearing a distinctive silver/grey wig to hide his receding hairline. His mother soon joined him in New York and helped with his illustrations, living with him until just before her death in 1972.

As a gay man, Warhol embraced the queer community of dancers, poets, artists and designers that New York offered. His exhibitions in the 1950s featured line drawings of young men at a time when the machismo of abstract expressionism dominated the US art world. It would be another 10 years before Warhol would be successful as an artist.
Warhol's first serious art film was Sleep (1963) and it is one of the first works in this exhibition. The closeups of Warhol's one-time lover, the poet John Giorno, sleeping in the nude are transfixing. By editing out any excessive movement and projecting the 16mm film in slow motion, Warhol turned Giorno's naked body into a field of light and shade, much like an abstract painting.

In 1960, Warhol began to make hand-painted images using advertising imagery and expressive painting. He quickly moved to the cleaner graphic style we now know as pop art. He wanted to speed up the replication of images and, in 1962, adopted commercial screenprinting techniques. Among these images are his Death and Disaster paintings, images of film star Marilyn Munroe and his famous Campbell's soup cans.

There are three joyous and explosive parts of this exhibition that come one after the other, heightening the impact and experience for visitors. The first concerns the Factory, Warhol's experimental art studio and social space with its walls covered in silver paint and foil. From 1964-6, Warhol documented the people passing through the Factory in his Screen Tests. In collaboration with others, he made more than 500 films between 1963 and 1967. The Factory scene with its many personalities became a kind of living artwork in its own right by the mid-60s.
The second joy in this exhibition is Silver Clouds, a space replete with metallic silver balloons filled with helium that invite viewer interaction. Warhol called them "paintings that float".
The third joy is Exploding Plastic Inevitable, or EPI. This room was designed by The Andy Warhol Museum to give an impression of the EPI multiscreen, multimedia shows featuring film, performance and music.
There was music from Velvet Underground and Nico, and strobe lights and coloured gels overlaid projections. There was dancing with whips from Factory superstars Gerard Malanga and Mary Woronov. Exploding Plastic Inevitable is sexy, stirring and truly mesmerising.

When the writer Valerie Solanas shot Warhol in an attempted murder in 1968, his physical and mental health were affected for the rest of his life. In the 70s, Warhol returned to printing with a number of large-scale screenprints like the Mao series of 1972 and the Hammer and Sickle and Skull series of 1976. In 1975, he produced another new series titled Ladies and Gentlemen and featuring anonymous Black and Latinx drag queens and trans women. From more than 500 photographs of 14 models, a selection were enlarged on to silkscreens.

Warhol was an international celebrity by the 70s. Often photographed with well-known figures such as Grace Jones and Debbie Harry, Warhol went out every night. His social networks earned him portrait commissions that helped to fund his more experimental work. In 1978, his Oxidation series used human urine to oxidise metallic paint, creating pools of colour to parody abstract expressionism.
In 1980, Warhol extended his practice into television premiering Andy Warhol's TV on a cable channel. Then he showed Andy Warhol's Fifteen Minutes on MTV in 1986.
Andy Warhol. Sixty Last Suppers, 1986. Nicola Erni Collection. © 2020 The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, Inc. / Licensed by DACS, London.
Warhol's Sixty Last Suppers (1986) is, fittingly, the last work in this exhibition. A copy of Leonardo da Vinci's The Last Supper (1495-8), depicting Jesus the night before his crucifixion with the 12 disciples, had hung in the Warhola family kitchen. Warhol deliberately used a cheap reproduction based on a 19th-century copy, a copy of a copy of the original. The repetition of the image and the sheer scale of the work mean its impact is significant. Tate's interpretive material suggests it is a "portrait of endless loss", and it is. It was made after the death of Warhol's former partner Jon Gould from an Aids-related illness. It is also reminiscent of the wall graves found in some cemeteries. Sitting in front of it in the gallery certainly felt like an act of commemoration.
There is a great deal of death in this exhibition but, ultimately, it is an overwhelming lust for life that permeates every room. I was fortunate to visit just days before Tate Modern closed its doors due to the Covid-19 threat. As I write this review, I cannot help but wonder how it looks now. Still, emptied of visitors and awaiting their return in order to breathe new life into the artworks, the gallery spaces and each other.

Robert Rauschenberg: Combines
It was only a matter of time before the work of Robert Rauschenberg would again receive a star billing in Paris, and there could be no better venue than the Centre Pompidou. The reason is that the work literally benefits from the implied temporariness of the 'rooms' at the Centre.
The Lichtenstein retrospective at the Hayward Gallery establishes an interesting timescale in terms of the appreciation and significance of Lichtenstein's work and the development of a critical apparatus to understand it.
The exhibition at the National Galleries of Scotland in Edinburgh (at the Mound) commemorating the 20th anniversary of Warhol's death has dramatically set to rights the prevalent theory of the 1990s that by the time he died Warhol's best work was long back in time, that he was by then a spent force.

Lara Pawson / Lists / Politics
An Angolan Reading List
Posted on July 29, 2014 by theibtaurisblog	Leave a comment
Lara Pawson, author of In the Name of the People, selects five essential reads to initiate the uninitiated into the politics, culture and history of Angola.
Since I first went to work in Angola in 1998, I have become accustomed to people looking at me blankly when I mention the country. They might have heard a bit about the wars from 1961 to 2002, they might raise an eyebrow when I mention its vast oil resource, and they might even dredge something about Portugal out of their memory – but it rarely goes further than that. As someone obsessed with the place, I find this frustrating. But it also makes an irresistible challenge – to persuade people who know nothing about Angola that it's worth finding out more.
Whilst pondering which books might entice the uninitiated to go deeper, I sent a message to various Angolan and 'Angolanist' friends to ask them for their top five books. One man, a seasoned Angolan journalist, told me to forget the books and focus on Facebook. For it is there that thousands of Angolans exchange information, opinion, photographs and gossip about their country day after day. Of course, this isn't much good to non-Portuguese speakers or people without Angolan Facebook friends. Other suggestions were largely confined to many excellent books, but which are regrettably only available in Portuguese. So, I have chosen the following five books, all of which are in English. In different ways, they have each taught me a great deal about the country, encouraging me to write my own In the Name of the People: Angola's Forgotten Massacre.
Portugal and Africa by David Birmingham (Ohio University, 1999)
The author of this fabulous collection of essays is a British historian who began writing about Africa and Portugal over 60 years ago. Beginning in 1488 when the Portuguese mariner Bartolomeu Dias sailed all the way to the Cape of Good Hope, Birmingham takes us through the following five centuries with his customary wit and intelligence. From the early colonial encounters in Angola, to the Atlantic slave trade and the establishment of the church and the coffee and cocoa plantations, to Portugal's stand-off with Cecil Rhodes in 1890, all the way through to the establishment of the New State under Portugal's fascist leader, António de Oliveira Salazar, and finally to Angolan independence. The last chapter 'Black and White in Angolan Fiction' provides a vivid insight into the work of two important novelists: António de Assis Junior (1887-1960), one of the country's few published black writers, and the brilliant Pepetela (1941- ), a white Angolan whose novels seem only to get better and better and better.
Creole by José Eduardo Agualusa (Arcadia Books, 2002)
Translated by Daniel Hahn
In the final pages of this beautifully written novel, one of the two narrators, a black Angolan woman called Ana Olímpia, recalls that, in her language, the word for 'the sea' is also the word for 'death'. Thus, she explains, for slaves shipped across the Atlantic from Angola to Brazil, 'the journey was a passage across death'. If they made it to the other side alive, they experienced 'Rebirth'. This twist of optimism is the provocative end to a book that explores the life and mind of the Portuguese aristocrat Fradique Mendes as he travels between Western Europe, Angola and Brazil during the decline of the Portuguese Empire. While witnessing the demise of the slave trade, he falls in love with a former slave, the beautiful and clever Ana Olímpia. Born in 1960, Agualusa is one of Angola's most successful novelists and, alongside the older Pepetela, probably its best-known internationally, thanks partly to Daniel Hahn's excellent translations.
Good Morning Comrades by Ondjaki (Biblioasis, 2008)
Translated by Stephen Henighan
This novella is a child's account of everyday life in Luanda during the Cold War. Set in the 1980s, it mirrors Ondjaki's early life. The narrator is a boy called Ndalu: the author's real name is Ndalu de Almeida. We follow Ndalu around his home, listening in on his conversations with the elderly cook, Comrade António. We accompany him to school, where his Cuban teachers talk up revolution while he and his friends worry about war. Bubbling up beneath the often whimsical text are deeply unsettling matters – what the author has called Angola's 'deepest wounds' – that expose a cruel and unyielding political dictatorship. Ondjaki pokes fun at the absurdities of the highly censored state-owned media and at the president, too, who we encounter in an armed convoy speeding along streets that have been given a quick layer of tarmac for his excellency's pleasure. Born in 1977, Ondjaki is less burdened by ideology and party loyalty than several older Angolan writers. He also has an ear for the banter, the gossip and chit-chat that beats at the heart of Luandan life.
Intonations: A Social History of Music and Nation in Luanda, Angola, from 145 to Recent Times by Marissa J. Moorman (Ohio University Press, 2008)
If you're a reluctant reader, do yourself a favour: buy a copy of this elegantly written and engaging book and listen to the fantastic CD included in the plastic sleeve at the back! Once you've swayed and shimmied to some of the greats, including Urbano de Castro, N'Gola Ritmos and Paulo Flores, you will be dying to know more. Moorman doesn't simply provide translations – often in two languages – of her chosen tracks, she shares her meticulous research to tell the story of how Angolans in Luanda's shanty towns used music to talk back to the colonisers. Her book is packed with information drawn from national radio archives and many extensive interviews with some of the country's foremost musicians. An academic historian, Moorman is a clean writer who has produced a very compelling piece of work. I refer to Intonations as 'my bible'.
Angola From Afro-Stalinism to Petro-Diamond Capitalism by Tony Hodges (James Currey, and Bloomington, Indiana University Press, 2001, in association with The Fridtjof Nansen Institute & The International African Institute)
Although this book is a bit dated, it nevertheless provides a thorough, clear and concise introduction for anyone wanting to get a handle on Angola's economy since the 1970s. Hodges is particularly adept in explaining how, in the early 1990s, the ruling party abandoned nearly 20 years of state socialism for unbridled capitalism and how a tiny elite has amassed huge fortunes from diamond and oil resources. Published over a decade ago, it has nothing about the crucial role that China now plays in Angola's economy, nor the role that Angola has played in propping up Portugal's. For the latter, you might try Os Donos Angolanos de Portugal, which was published in Portugal earlier this year and is currently only available in Portuguese. Once you've got Hodges' book under your belt, I would strongly recommend keeping your eyes peeled for Magnificent and Beggar Land: Angola Since the Civil War by Ricardo Soares de Oliveira, due to be published later this year. I am reliably informed that he has not left a single stone unturned. Then, I would recommend you learn Portuguese! ■

Fifa Planet Cup 2022: Premier League Transfer News, Jude Bellingham, Enzo Fernandez, Liverpool, Arsenal, Joao Felix, Epl 2022, January Transfer Window
In a tense first half, Dortmund had 3-quarters of possession but had to wait almost the complete half for another opportunity in stoppage time, when a Jude Bellingham effort was cleared off the line. The hosts, who travel to Ajax Amsterdam for the Champions League subsequent week, had shot out of the blocks and earned a dream start out with Reus thumping in a deflected cutback in the third minute for a dream start out. Dortmund go major on 18 points, two ahead of champions Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen, who face every single other on Sunday.
Our official app enables you to follow the events from the match all in one particular spot. Please note, 22/23 Men's Season Ticket holders can claim one free of charge ticket for this fixture. Technically, Hertha Berlin's Olympiastadion doesn't have a standing terrace but tickets behind the target in the Ostkurve are sold as such. The identical was true of the Red Bull Arena in Leipzig, but actual standing terraces have now been added. Union Berlin's Stadion an der Alten Försterei is famously more than 80% terracing.
The race for his signature is anticipated to intensify at the finish of the present season, with the likes of Real Madrid, Manchester City and Chelsea also circling as properly as Liverpool. Is a international sports multi-platform and media firm that operates with its own technology. VAVEL is the go-to supply to seek advice from for its wide coverage of sport around the globe. The fight continues in midfield and each teams seek to impose circumstances. There's small sneak a peek at this web-site. sensible information to be gleaned from the performances of Kawasaki Frontale and Urawa Reds in their defeats against Paris Saint-Germain last week, during the very first two stops of the superstar club's sold-out Japan tour. Both nation and club have had to account for Reyna's extended unavailability more than the last half year, wondering what may possibly have been had injury not derailed the initial program.
As someone who has followed Borussia Dortmund's progress for many years now, Miller is excited about the club's potential. And he desires to enable promote the Black and Yellows' already developing brand in North America. Borussia Dortmund's expansion into the United States industry is set to get a big increase as the club has partnered with Official League to develop club-inspired hat designs. The extra exposure and creation of these restricted edition styles will be geared towards advertising and developing awareness about the club in North America. Adidas provided the Germany 2022 house jersey, which combines a white base with black and metallic gold facts. The German flag is on the collar and as a stripe along the sides to the bottom hem.
And in a nod to Dortmund's future, England international Jude Bellingham set up fellow teenager Youssouf Moukoko to score a late winner to give Haaland the great send-off. Alex Barker takes a appear back at all the important stories from the weekend's action from across Europe, such as Lionel Messi's first totally free-kick target for PSG, Erling Haaland's goal scoring record and Borussia Dortmund's loss to Cologne. Comply with Get Football on TikTok, Instagram and A single Football for all our vertical video content.
The significance of Gio Reyna's return from the sidelines has only been magnified that substantially further in light of the other-worldly injury crisis that the club at present finds itself in. A summer that featured new signings across each and every location of the pitch must be viewed as a accomplishment in regard to Sebastian Kehl's inaugural showing in the part of Sporting Director. With the Pole in the beginning line-up after informing the club of his want to leave and not extend his contract that runs out subsequent year, Bayern have been in manage from the start. Josip Stanisic headed them in front in the 17th minute, setting a new league record with the club's 48th away objective in a season. Dortmund have been linked to a lot of distinctive types of players at the top of the pitch, and it appears as though a deal for Karim Adeyemi of Salzburg is all but confirmed for subsequent season.
The report claims the Catalan club are relying on Kounde's preference to move to Barca in the identical way they did with Leeds winger Raphinha, who opted to join the Blaugrana more than Chelsea earlier this month. Just to comprehensive the loop, Brighton left-back Marc Cucurella is a target for Man City, but his club want more than £50m. The Gunners are set to commit £30m to sign Man City defender Oleksandr Zinchenko and appear likely to loan out Tavares to acquire more encounter. As for Suarez, the ex-Barcelona and Liverpool playmaker had been linked with quite a few clubs in South America and had not too long ago said he had gives from Key League Soccer. According to Sky Sports Deutschland, Dortmund bosses are weighing up regardless of whether or not it would make sense to sign the 35-year-old Uruguay star.
Bochum return to the Bundesliga just after an 11-year absence with an homage to their time in the prime flight in the course of the 1980s and their household on Castroper Straße. The colours are described as 'floodlight' and 'floodlight blue' in reference to the floodlights higher above the Ruhrstadion that guide fans to the stadium. The French international saw his next opportunity saved in the 64th minute but created no error with his third chance five minutes later as Real softened the memory of their 4- house humiliation by Barcelona last month. Substitute Donyell Malen managed to briefly reduce the deficit in the 84th with a header at the far post but Leipzig responded two minutes later with Dani Olmo's effectively-placed shot from outside the box to seal an emphatic victory.
The 42-year-old former club captain has spent 4 years as the club's Head of Skilled Football, properly shadowing Zorc in preparation to succeed him. Terzic sent Julian Brandt and Youssoufa Moukoko into the mix thereafter and the pair promptly combined, with the latter striking the foot of a post with a tidy work from distance. Adeyemi then headed narrowly previous the far post from a corner as Dortmund stepped up the pace.
According to FIFA, the group presently ranks eleventh worldwide with 1650 points. The coach named his 26-man-squad on 10 November, shocking fans with his options of interesting inclusions and exclusions. I believe there's plenty of talent there, but there's no doubt it would be a bit of a threat.
The January transfer window could give them an chance to enhance their squad, even though they may realistically have to wait until the summer season for the targets they actually want. Chelsea would choose to sell and the asking cost would probably begin at about £40million. Though Newcastle, riding high beneath Eddie Howe, are prepared to bid they would hope to knock down the charge. Their January transfer window priority is a wide operating player with Leeds United's Jack Harrison and Brighton's Leandro Trossard nonetheless possibilities. Fiorentina are reportedly keen to hold onto their star defensive midfielder until the end of the season, but delivers will certainly test their resolve in the upcoming transfer window. According to transfermarkt, in the two-and-a-bit seasons he has played to this point, he has missed 35 games through injury.

Q: Play 2 framework spring data with MySQL I am new to Play Framework and I am trying to do a simple example to understand how it works. I have used the template play-spring-data-jpa to start. I would like to use MySQL in a persistent way and that is why I chose it.
I started with h2 to understand how it works and then tried to move to connecting to a MySQL local database.
I followed the steps to use JPA from https://www.playframework.com/documentation/2.1.0/JavaJPA to get a persistence unit.
The code works fine with h2, but when I switch to MySQL, I get an error.
The connection with the database works fine, as I get the message:
[info] play - database [default] connected at jdbc:mysql://localhost/brainUp?useUnicode=yes&characterEncoding=UTF-8&connectionCollation=utf8_general_ci

But right after that message I get the following one:
[error] o.h.t.h.SchemaUpdate - could not get database metadata
com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLSyntaxErrorException: Unknown table 'sequences' in information_schema
    at sun.reflect.NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance0(Native Method) ~[na:1.7.0_51]

I don't quite understand the message and I have been searching for quite long and have not found anything that makes me understand what is happening.
Thanks in advance

A: Thank you  @Krzysiek for the interest. I revised the persistence.xml again and found the error there. As I think you suspected it was about the defined dialect.
As I previously used h2, so the dialect was defined for that instead of for MySQL.
Here's the new persistence.xml which works fine, in case someone encounters the same problem as me.
<persistence xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence"
             xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

        </properties>
    </persistence-unit>

</persistence>

I also would like to note for new users like me that if you want to create the tables from java code you should set   to create-drop, and just to use and edit data stored you might want to switch it to "update" instead, when the database is created and will not suffer structural changes anymore.

Musicians today are forced to be merely "corporate entertainment", Ry Cooder claims in the new issue of Uncut, dated January 2014 and out now.
The guitarist and singer-songwriter says that the current state of the music business is "a tragedy", as he discusses his career, the rise of Americana and his new boxset, 1970-1987.
"What made music great was the four-minute pop song and the care that people took to create something that had never existed before," explains Cooder.

Q: lookup tables in C++ 11 with multithreading I have 2 similar situations in a multithreaded C++11 software :

*

*an array that I'm using as a lookup table inside a method declaration

*an array that I'm using as a lookup table declared outside a method and that is being used by different and several methods by reference or with pointers.

now if we forget for a minute about this LUTs and we just consider C++11 and a multithreaded approach for a generic method, the most appropriate qualifier for this methods in terms of storage duration is probably thread_local.
This way if i feed a method foo() that is thread_local to 3 threads I basically end up having 3 instances of foo() for each thread, this move "solves" the problem with foo() being shared and accessed between 3 different threads, avoiding cache missings, but I basically have 3 possible different behaviours for my foo(), for example if I have the same PRNG implemented in foo() and i provide a seed that is time-dependant with a really good and high resolution, I probably will get 3 different results with each thread and a real mess in terms of consistency.
But let's say that I'm fine with how thread_local works, how I can write down the fact that I need to keep a LUT always ready and cached for my methods ?
I read something about a relaxed or less relaxed memory model, but in C++11 I have never seen a keyword or a practical application that can inject the caching of an array/LUT .
I'm on x86 or ARM.
I probably need something that is the opposite thing of volatile basically.

A: If the LUTs are read-only, so that you can share them without locks, you should just use one of them (i.e. declare them static).
Threads do not have their own caches. But even if they did (cores typically have their own L1 cache, and you might be able to lock a thread to a core), there would be no problem for two different threads to cache different parts of the same memory structure.
"Thread-local storage" does not mean that the memory is somehow physically tied to the thread. Rather, it's a way to let the same name refer to a different object in each thread. In no way does it restrict the ability of any thread to access the object, if given its address.

A: The CPU cache is not programmable. It uses its own internal logic to determine which memory regions to cache. Typically it will cache the memory that either has just been accessed by the CPU, or its prediction logic determines will shortly be accessed by the CPU. In a multiprocessor system, each CPU may have its own cache, or different CPUs may share a cache. If there are multiple caches, a memory region may be cached in more than one simultaneously.
If all threads must see the same values in the look-up tables, then a single table would be best. This could be achieved with a variable with static storage duration. If the data can be modified then you would probably also need a std::mutex to protect accesses to the table and avoid data races. Read-only data can be shared without additional synchronization; in this case it is best to declare it const to make the read-only nature explicit and avoid accidental modifications.
void foo(){
     static const int lut[]={...};
}

You use thread_local where each thread must have its own copy of the data, usually because each copy will be modified independently. For example, you may choose to use thread_local for your random-number generator, so that each thread has its own RNG which is independent of the other threads, and does not require synchronization.
void bar(){
    thread_local RandomNumberGenerator rng; // one per thread
    auto val=rng.nextRandomNumber(); // use the instance for the current thread
}

I say 'good fortune' because, if it had not been for the fact that I have a soft spot for 'Lola', she would not be sitting pretty right now, rather she would be sitting in the dustbin!
As soon as I saw the latest edition of Molly Makes, I just knew that Lisa Lam's little fortune cookie purse on the cover would be perfect for Lola, so I ordered the frame straightaway from U-Handbag and got to work making up the body of the purse.
I have never made a framed purse before, but the pattern was straight forward enough and I was surprised at how quickly and easily it all came together.
A few days later the purse frame arrived. Now, I knew I would have to glue the frame to the fabric and, if I'm honest, a few wee pangs of anxiety were already beginning to creep in – it was the 'glue' that was making me nervous. Give me a needle and thread any day, but glue? Mmm … nah!
I mean, get a grip, how hard could it be to glue the frame on?
To say I swore a couple of times would be a lie… more like a dozen times or more! The air was blue, I can tell you – even my husband put a concerned head around the door at one point to see what all the huffin' and puffin' was about. The problem was that the purse was just the teeniest, tiniest bit too small for the frame and, try as I might (and I tried mighty hard!), there was no way that I could get that little bugger to fit in the frame! Poop!
To cut a long story short, I ended up having to insert a tiny little triangle of fabric each side of the gusset to make it fit. And even then it took a good bit of jiggery pokery to get the pesky thing just right. Talk about a bad frame day! Tsk!
I think 'Lola' deserves pretty ribbon and lace …..don't you?

Looking at old photographs from the 20's and 30's and there is something so charming about the tiny tots in sailor suits and smocked, embroidered dresses. Delicate cottons and silks with tiny pintucks, careful embroidery and lace edges all make for beautiful heirloom pieces that are as gorgeous today as they were back then.
Belle Heir provides an outlet for just such vintage children's clothing pieces. A love for vintage children's wear sparked intense searches of estate sales, antique shops and flea markets and has resulted in a breathtaking collection of unique dresses, sunsuits, rompers, and sailor suits from the turn of last century through the 1960's.
You probably won't want to feed your little one her messiest meal while wearing a delicate cotton dress from 1930, but for special occasions or just a beautiful summer day in the park nothing is sweeter than a crisp cotton sunsuit or white smocked dress with French knot details.
To bring back some vintage charm from the elegant days gone by, and to find an outfit that is truly as unique as your child, look to Belle Heir for the perfect vintage outfit.

The presence of Ghanaians in Italy dates back to the 1980s.

Numbers
In 2010 in Italy there are 46,890 regular immigrants from Ghana. In 2006 there were 36,540. The three cities with most number of Ghanaians are: Palermo, Modena and Reggio Emilia.

History

In Italy the migration from Ghana began in the mid-1980s, when people came over as students driven by economic motives.

The choice of Italy as a place of destination, it is often due to the ease of obtaining an entry visa, and the difficulty of obtaining an entry permit for other European countries. In fact initially the preferred destinations are Britain, then Netherlands and the United States, but many of them, the first citation is available and has been for Italy.
Towards the year 1988 also was easier to get a visa for Italy because there were few immigrants, but Britain was more rigid because many Ghanaians actually entered as tourists stayed permanently.
The guys of the second generation who were born in Italy, studying, trying to carve out a space, to achieve a respectable economic independence and parents work very hard to guarantee them a relative stability.

Entrepreneurship
Ghanacoop was born in Modena in 2005 within the National Association of Ghana and it is one of the first non-profit social enterprises run by immigrants on the Italian territory. It's a concrete example of community enterprise, involving an entire community as a whole of its economic activities, social or cultural.
The farm, which involves 135 workers cultivating an area of 400 hectares, exports its products to the British market and, through Ghanacoop, on the Italian market. On the local market the product is sold to both distributors of fresh produce, and for firms engaged in processing for the production of juices, fruit concentrates and fruit cut, or, in the Italian business vocabulary, fourth range.

Notable Ghanaians in Italy

Learning should grow from the ground up.
Imagine that you've just been asked to develop your organization's orientation program for new hires.
This involves a lot of work, and there's an enormous amount of information that you need to cover. To put it mildly, you're feeling overwhelmed by everything that you need to do!
So, what should you focus on? How can you ensure that your training is engaging and interesting? And, with all the work that goes into designing a learning experience, how can you make sure that you don't forget an important step?
In this article, we'll look at how you can use the ADDIE Model to design effective learning experiences for your team.
Although its origins are unknown, training designers and instructors have used the ADDIE Model for several decades as a guide for building effective, relevant training sessions.
ADDIE is an acronym that stands for the steps needed to prepare an effective learning session. You can see these steps in Figure 1, below.
These steps may look quite obvious, but there are plenty of useful prompts under each of these headers that can help you improve the training that you deliver.
Let's look at each phase in greater detail, and examine how you can work through each step to create better training programs.

Natural Religion Vs Revealed Religion Philosophy
Add: 8-02-2016, 20:36 / Views: 280
Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion is a religious philosophical work of the Scottish philosopher David Hume.?It is about the fight the three characters of Cleanthes, Philo and Demea about the nature of God's existence.
Hume began the process of dialogue later than in 1750, it was published only in 1779.
Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion, religion, philosophical works of David Hume, were published posthumously 1779.?The work is written as a fictional dialogue between the three main characters Cleanthes, Philo and Demea.
Cleanthes argues for the existence of God.?He stresses the teleological sense, for example, that the world's effectiveness suggests an intelligent designer.
Demea can rather be characterized as a mystic, who claims that God is beyond reason.?The main reason for that belief is an internal feeling or certainty.?However, Demea is trying, at one point, to defend a version of the cosmological proof of God.
Philo is the most skeptical of the three, and probably the most often seems to reflect the Hume's own point of view, as described in Hume's Dialogues as Philosophy of Science.
Conversations about religion in the Dialogue concerning Natural Religion, is the literature on philosophy by the Scottish philosopher David Hume.?The publication consults together with three characters- Demea, Philo and Cleanthes, the nature of religion and the existence of God.?They all agree that God exists, but disagree on the nature and properties, and that they can ever gain knowledge of the gods.?Among the things they talk about is the design rationale for the existence of God.
Hume started writing the Dialogues on religion in 1750, but did not finish with them until 1776, shortly before he died.?The publication is based in part on the publication of Cicero "De Natura Deorum" (On the nature of the Gods).?Conversations about religion came to Hume, after he died in 1779.
Give a complete account of the Argument from Design as stated by Cleanthes.
In part I, the skepticism is discussed, which is made strong by Philo.?Cleanthes, however, rejects the global skepticism because it was not for pragmatic reasons, could be represented.?In Part II to VIII, the argument was put forward by Cleanthes, as the argument from design was discussed.
Cleanthes believes that the world has similarity with the products of human activity and could be seen as a great machine.?Since similar effects could also lead to similar effects, it is permissible to infer by analogy that God to the man is similar.?God is a kind of exaggerated human being is, however, better and probably also was distinguished by the usual attributes of immortality, omnipotence, omniscience and benevolence.
Thus, represented by Cleanthes anthropomorphism is criticized by the other two severely and extensively.?Demea calls for the incomprehensibility of God, pointing to the weak nature of the human spirit, which is composed of variable and?Philo designs also a long list of alternative conclusions, and describes the world that could not be excluded by Cleanthes: his argument still leaves many gods instead of one, also could the world be regarded as good as an animal, which enables a completely different description of God.?He also puts forward a variant of the theory of nature, passes after a series of finite worlds to each other the momentum of change.?In this theory, he is already approaching the Hume to as yet unknown theory of evolution.?Cleanthes can be traced from Philo provoking presentations and throws out any of his theories of the world, which were produced exactly as it is of necessity.?This philosophy applies, however, against the design argument for which this is true either.?At the end of Part VIII, he claimed that there was the reluctance of any appeal, the only tenable position, as stated in How David Hume's Critique of the Design Argument Survives for Three Centuries.
Two of the experts involved in the dialogues represent two major trends of the Century of Enlightenment in the discussion of natural religion: one, Cleanthes, is a deist, a theist or perhaps better, not only argues for the existence of God but also of?His providence, the other - Demea, is a defender of orthodox Christianity.?The third, Philo - is the fencing of the skeptical point of view.?The theist Cleanthes claims arrogantly that the power of human reason is sufficient to reach, drawing on the experience of the world and the logic of the arguments, the author's knowledge of the universe.?The orthodox Demea insists, that it is not the strength, but the weakness of a man, and his reason which brings us to the infinity of God and his mysteries.?The skeptic Philo sometimes slyly encourages optimism for the Cleanthes and other pessimism of Demea, thus provoking the confrontation between the two.?This strategy paves the way to defending their thesis of the triumph of moderate skepticism concerning natural religion.

A few days ago you received two mail pieces of the same theme but different headings.
That was a mistake by my e-mail service.
Not only did the software mess up the mail out schedule, it also mixed together two different messages. I know it's kind of confusing.
Here now, is that piece about ADHD.
It may concern your children, or maybe even you.
But whatever the case, we all need to educate ourselves about this ailment, the diagnosis of which some consider arbitrary, at best, and bogus at worst.
The brain is capable of tremendous abilities. So, before you let the "experts" medicate your children or maybe even you, you might want to find out more about options.
Johnny may not be as dumb, or distracted as his school says he is. In fact, it is possible Johnny is just bored because he's not being challenged enough by a school system that relies on tests to gauge students. Tests are NOT necessarily the best gauge of "smart."
Now the authorities say Ritalin and other ADHD drugs used to treat ADHD are safe.
They don't deny that the these medications cause high blood pressure. They don't deny that they increase heart rate either.
What they claim is that these medications are safe for adults, and the reports of these side effects could be dismissed Well, let's see how safe these meds are.
And, an increased heart rate can lead to heart attack /stroke But these medications are safe!
But what is ADHD anyway? How do we know some one has it?
Would you believe that there is no standard test for this "disease"?
Some experts think that a lot of kids diagnosed for this "disease" are just being kids-hyperactive, and what kid is not, unless s/he is not normal?
Isn't it possible that we are too quick to label kids as attention deficient, when we could have channelled their energies towards their natural talents?
What are the implications of drugging children this early in life? Could it pre-dispose these children to addictive behavior as adults-namely drug use?
Has anyone seriously tried to find answers to these questions? Is ADHD-if it is a condition-a result of unbalanced brain chemistry?
If it is, is it possible to balance it with good nutrition, rather than external chemical interventions? And if it is not, why the medications?
Some of the children diagnosed with ADHD have their symptoms persist into adulthood, which is not surprising. If as children, their energies are not channelled into their fields of natural talents, it is safe to assume that the frustrations and lack of adequate outlets would also persist.
You don't need a degree in psychiatry to infer that. Now, not only do children take ADHD drugs, so do adults, even those in their 60s!.
We know children can be hyperactive, and may not be able to to engage in one activity for long periods , but any parent will tell you there is nothing unusual about that.
Is it possible that what is diagnosed as adult ADHD may be a symptom of some other ailments?
Of the adults taking ADHD drugs, how many of them took them as children? And why the sudden rise in adult ADHD diagnoses in the last few years?
And of those children "diagnosed" with ADHD not taking any medication, how have they fared over the years?
That would be the ultimate control group, won't it?
Remember there are millions of children and adults diagnosed with, and taking ADHD drugs.

A wonderful friend invited me to go to Toronto for the weekend to visit the church. We would have no agenda except to see what God was up to there. He had been watching Heidi Bakers testimony and said I want to go next weekend. No problem right? Yes, problem. We live in Oregon, .USA. I didn't think it would be possible but with a little work on my end and a lot of help from my friend, we made it.
We did not know the deliverance sessions were happening but when we found out we planned on attending. That had many blessings in itself.
I want to thank the prophetic prayer team from Sunday. We heard we could sign up so we did. I almost didn't. I felt as if I already had plenty of work to do with the words from my past. I'm so thankful I did.
Walter and Van gave me 7 minutes of affirming, prophetic encouragement and blessing that I was not expecting. They said things about my current circumstances and what God was doing, which were true. They said I had come a long ways, which was true naturally and spiritually. They talked about where I had been and where I was going which is true. Amazing.
But a few things they said were almost direct quotes from a word spoken over my wife and I in 2001. A few weeks before I had been asking the Lord if I was still that guy he spoke over back then. In 2001 he said there was no guile in us. Who uses that word? Apparently God does because Walter said there is just no guile in you.
In 2001 God said, Your future is so bright I would have to wear shades. Thats a line from an 80's song. Your team also said You have a bright future. Wow. Two words from the past almost exactly the same. And right after I had just asked God if that was still me. They changed me. They made me a little more confident. I am closer to breaking out of the cycle they saw I was in. Thank you and Blessings. Please pass this on if possible to your team of prophetic people. They are doing great work. There is more I could say but I think you get the picture.


Treats hereditary orotic aciduria. Also treats overdose of fluorouracil or capecitabine and possible life-threatening side effects caused by these cancer drugs.
You might need to use only some of the medicine in the packet. To use part of a packet: Measure each dose carefully with an accurate scale or marked teaspoon. Your health caregiver should show you how to measure this medicine. Throw away any medicine left over in the opened packet.
Mix the granules in 3 to 4 ounces of applesauce, pudding, or yogurt.
Swallow the mixture immediately or within 30 minutes. Do not chew the granules. Do not save any of the mixture to use later.
Drink at least 4 ounces of water.
Pour 5 mL of milk or infant formula into a medicine cup. Draw up the liquid into an oral syringe.
Hold the syringe with the tip up. Pull the plunger down to 10 mL to make room for the granules.
Cap the tip of the syringe, point the tip down, and remove the plunger. Pour the granules into the syringe. Gently swirl the syringe to mix.
Place the tip of the syringe in the back of the baby's mouth, between the cheek and gum. Gently push the plunger all the way down.
Refill the syringe with another 5 mL of milk or infant formula.
Gently swirl to rinse any granules. Administer in the baby's mouth as before.
Your baby may drink a bottle of formula or milk afterwards.
Feeding tube: Your health caregiver will show you how to mix and administer each dose, if needed.
Missed dose: Take a dose as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, wait until then and take a regular dose. Do not take extra medicine to make up for a missed dose. If you vomit within 2 hours of taking a dose of Vistogard®, take another full dose immediately. Then, take your next dose at your regularly scheduled time.
Do not stop using this medicine, even if you feel well.


D3.js Tips and Tricks: Observations of the impact of publishing the D3 Tips and Tricks book as a web page on Leanpub.
Ahh... I recently added a piece to an earlier blog post (and into the book) that describes how to do this. See http://www.d3noob.org/2013/08/add-line-chart-in-dcjs.html (or in the book (https://leanpub.com/D3-Tips-and-Tricks) it's in the 'Adding a line Chart to dc.js' chapter. The tooltips in this case are added as a function of dc.sc, but they look good. There can be some use cases where their behaviour is 'quirky', but for what you describe I think they'll be good. You can see an example in action on the main dc.js page here (http://nickqizhu.github.io/dc.js/) (although the format of the date / time is different, I explain how to change that in the book / blog. Enjoy.
