Die Fakultät Verkehrswissenschaften "Friedrich List" ist eine verkehrswissenschaftliche Forschungs- und Lehreinrichtung in Form einer Fakultät der Technischen Universität Dresden. Sie ging 1992 aus der Hochschule für Verkehrswesen hervor und hat bei dieser Zusammenlegung Dresdner Hochschulen wie das Universitätsklinikum Carl Gustav Carus Dresden ihren Namen zu Ehren des Ökonomen und Eisenbahnvordenkers Friedrich List beibehalten.

Geschichte

Die Fakultät ging aus der 1949 gegründeten Hochschule für Verkehrswesen (HfV) hervor, die zum 30. September 1992 aufgelöst wurde.

Die neue Fakultät übernahm einen Teil der personellen und materiellen Ressourcen der Hochschule; der andere Teil ging auf die Hochschule für Technik und Wirtschaft über. Studenten der HfV konnten ihr Studium an der neuen Fakultät zu Ende führen.

Die Gründung der Fakultät war im Sächsischen Hochschulstrukturgesetz vom 10. April 1992 vorgesehen. Die Fakultät wurde im Rahmen eines Festaktes am 6. November 1992 gegründet. Der Zeremonie wohnte unter anderem Bahnchef Heinz Dürr bei.

An der neu gegründeten Fakultät wurde der Studiengang Verkehrsingenieurwesen mit den Vertiefungsrichtungen Verkehrsplanung und Verkehrstechnik, Verkehrssystemtechnik und Logistik, Elektrische Verkehrssysteme sowie Verkehrsprozessautomatisierung und Kommunikationssysteme angeboten. Darüber hinaus war die Fakultät an den fakultätsübergreifenden Studiengängen Maschinenbau (Studienrichtung konstruktiver Maschinenbau), Bauingenieurwesen (Studienrichtung Verkehrsbau) und Wirtschaftswissenschaften (Studienrichtung Wirtschaft und Verkehr) beteiligt. Bereits im Dezember 1990 hatte die Sächsische Landesregierung die Einrichtung eines Studiengangs für Wirtschaft und Verkehr beschlossen.

Unter dem Gründungsdekan Günter Hertel verfügte die Fakultät Ende 1992 zunächst über acht Professuren. Nach Abschluss der Berufungsverfahren sollten 30 Professuren besetzt sein, die in vier Abteilungen gegliedert werden sollten. Nach einer anderen Quelle standen zur Gründung rund 38 Professuren, 12 Dozenturen und 145 weitere Mitarbeiterstellen zur Verfügung. Rund 2.300 Studenten waren zur Zeit der Gründung eingeschrieben (TU-weit: 19.300). 1994 verfügte die Fakultät über elf Institute.

Zum Wintersemester 1993/94 wurde der achtsemestrige Diplom-Studiengang Verkehrswirtschaft aufgenommen. 1994 begannen rund 40 Studenten ein Studium des Verkehrsingenieurwesens. 1996 lag die Zahl der Erstsemestler in diesem Studiengang bei etwa 100.

Im "Zukunftskonzept" der Universität wurde die Fakultät in den fakultätsübergreifenden Bereich "Bau und Umwelt" eingeordnet.

Im April 2022 wurde eine Exzellenzprofessur "Verkehrssystemmodellierung" besetzt.

Gebäude und Einrichtungen

Der Hauptbau der Fakultät ist der Gerhart-Potthoff-Bau in der Dresdner Südvorstadt.

Das Gebäude wurde zwischen 1953 und 1956 errichtet und umfasst 7.200 Quadratmeter Büro-, Lehr- und Arbeitsflächen. Bis zur Eröffnung des Hörsaalzentrums mit dem neuen Audimax im Jahr 1998 war der Hörsaal POT 81 mit rund 500 Plätzen der größte auf dem Campus der Technischen Universität.

Daneben haben mehrere Lehrstühle der Verkehrswirtschaft ihren Sitz im Bürogebäude Falkenbrunnen, sowie das Institut für Verkehrstelematik im sogenannten "A-Gebäude" in der Andreas-Schubert-Straße.

Integriertes Eisenbahnlabor (IEL)
Das Integrierte Eisenbahnlabor besteht aus drei Teilen. Das bekannteste davon ist das Eisenbahnbetriebslabor, es gehören aber auch das Sicherungstechnische Labor, die Oberbauausstellung und der Signalgarten dazu.

Eisenbahnbetriebslabor (EBL)
Die Geschichte des Eisenbahnbetriebslabors geht bis ins Jahr 1963 zurück, als an der Hochschule für Verkehrswesen (HfV) des zentralen Institutsgebäudes (heute HTW Dresden) das "Technologische Labor des Eisenbahntransports" (TLE) eingerichtet wurde. In dem rund 80 Meter langen und 10 Meter breiten Raum im obersten Stock des Gebäudes waren 385 m Gleis in Spurweite H0 verlegt, darunter 155 m zweigleisige Strecke. Neben zwei mechanischen Stellwerken, vier elektromechanischen und drei Relaisstellwerken ging auch ein Elektronisches Stellwerk für Lehrzwecke in Betrieb, das für 1,5 Millionen D-Mark von Siemens Transportation Systems gestiftet und auch zur Weiterbildung von Ingenieuren des Unternehmens genutzt wurde. Das im Januar 1994 übergebene ESTW umfasst 44 Stellelemente (Weichen, Signale) und war das erste elektronische Stellwerk für Ausbildungszwecke an einer deutschen Hochschule.

Der Umzug in den Keller des heutigen Fakultätsgebäudes in der Hettnerstraße erfolgte zwischen 1999 und 2001. Die Anlage wird seither als Eisenbahnbetriebslabor bezeichnet. Auf der 600 m² und 1300 m Gleis umfassenden Modellbahnanlage wird der Zugverkehr auf einem 260 km langen Streckennetz mit fünf Bahnhöfen und 185 Weichen nachgebildet. Der angenommene Längenmaßstab beträgt 1:200 – abweichend vom H0-Maßstab 1:87. Der Zeitmaßstab beträgt hingegen 1:1, wobei jedoch die Möglichkeit besteht, die Uhren auch langsamer laufen zu lassen. Die Steuerung erfolgt über zehn reale Stellwerke aus allen Epochen vom Mechanischen bis zum Elektronischen Stellwerk. Es ist die weltweit größte Modellbahnanlage für Lehrzwecke.

Sicherungstechnisches Labor (SIL)
Das von der Professur für Verkehrssicherungstechnik betreute Sicherungstechnische Labor (SIL) bietet die Möglichkeit, an originalen Systemen und Komponenten Abläufe und Vorgänge in der Sicherungstechnik zu untersuchen, was im realen Eisenbahnbetrieb nicht ohne Weiteres möglich ist. Im SIL steht ein breites Spektrum originaler Sicherungstechnik zur Verfügung. Die hier vorhandenen Systeme und Komponenten dienen vorwiegend der Anschauung und der Durchführung von Praktika, aber auch Versuche für Forschungen werden hier absolviert.

Oberbauausstellung

Die Oberbauausstellung wird von der Professur für Gestaltung von Bahnanlagen betreut. Das Gelände befindet sich auf einer ca. 400 m² großen Freifläche neben dem Fakultätsgebäude, wo eine Vielzahl von Exponaten moderner und historischer Oberbaukonstruktionen ausgestellt sind.

Signalgarten
Ende November 2015 wurde ein Signalgarten errichtet, mit zunächst zwei, ab Ende 2017 vier, Signalen.

Labor für Optische Wahrnehmungssicherheit und Lichttechnik

Systemlabor für spurgebundene Fahrzeuge
In diesem Labor werden zahlreiche Maschinen vorgehalten, die für das System Bahn von entscheidender Bedeutung sind. Mit dem Gleitenden Umformer und dem Synchron-Synchron-Umformer sind wichtige Maschinen der Bahnstromversorgung vorhanden. Eine Gleichstrommaschine, die auch als Bahnmotor betrieben werden kann, repräsentiert den alten Stand der Traktionsmotoren. Mit einem Versuchsstand für Drehstromantriebstechnik, bestehend aus einem original U-Bahn-Antrieb und Umrichtern, wird die moderne Traktionsart abgedeckt. Darüber hinaus existiert ein Prüfstand mit Dieselmotor und einem hydrodynamischen Getriebe, welches gegen einen Generator und eine Bremswelle arbeiten kann. Des Weiteren stehen zwei Stromabnehmer (Originalgröße), ein Fahrsimulator und wichtige Bestandteile der Oberleitung zur Verfügung.

Labor für Flugsimulation

Am Institut für Luftfahrt und Logistik gibt es einen (nichtbeweglichen) Flugsimulator, an dem das Cockpit einer Airbus A320 simuliert wird.

Verkehrswissenschaftliche Tage
Neben verschiedenen Tagungen einzelner Institute organisiert die Fakultät seit 1998 mit den Verkehrswissenschaftlichen Tagen im zwei- bis dreijährigen Abstand eine Fachkonferenz über alle verkehrswissenschaftliche Bereiche hinweg. Ähnliche Konferenzen wurden bereits durch die Hochschule für Verkehrswesen zwischen 1954 und 1989 organisiert.

Studentenvertretung
Der Fachschaftsrat Verkehrswissenschaften "Friedrich List" ist die studentische Vertretung der Fakultät. Dieser wurde am 1. Oktober 1992 mit der Eingliederung der Fakultät in die TU Dresden gegründet.

Ihr Vorgänger war der Studentenrat der Hochschule für Verkehrswesen. Dieser entstand in der Wendezeit 1989/90. Die ersten demokratischen Wahlen wurden am 1. Oktober 1990 durchgeführt. Neben dem Studentenrat gab es weitere Sektionssprecherräte für einzelne Fakultäten. Im Jahr 1992 gab sich die Studentenvertretung den Namen "Studentenschaft Friedrich List". Zusammen mit der HfV endete seine Existenz am 30. September 1992. Von 1994 bis 2002 gab der Fachschaftsrat zeitweilig die Zeitschrift List-Express heraus ().

Der Fachschaftsrat wird auf jeweils ein Jahr gewählt. Diese Wahlen finden in der Regel mit weiteren universitätsweiten Wahlen im November eines Jahres statt. Zwischen 1992 und 1995 bestand der Fachschaftsrat Verkehrswissenschaften aus 15 Mitgliedern. Anschließend wurde die Zahl auf 20 Mitglieder erhöht. Im Potthoff-Bau unterhält die Studentenvertretung ein Büro und tagt während der Vorlesungszeit im wöchentlichen bis zwei-wöchentlichen Turnus. Zur Vertretung der Studenten in den Gremien hat er dabei das Recht Vertreter in den Studentenrat der TU Dresden, in die Studienkommissionen, in die Prüfungsausschüsse sowie in die Institutsräte zu entsenden. Lediglich die Vertreter des Fakultätsrates, sowie die studentischen Senatoren werden von den Studenten direkt gewählt.

Weitere Aufgaben des FSR Verkehr sind die Förderung der Studenten und studentischen Initiativen der Fakultät. Hierbei arbeitet er mit verkehrswissenschaftlichen Vereinen, den sogenannten "Listigen Vereinigungen" zusammen und organisiert Veranstaltungen. Neben diesen Aufgaben pflegt er die nationalen und internationalen Beziehungen, wie etwa bei den Bundesfachschaftstagen Verkehr.

Eine Besonderheit des Fachschaftsrates sind die hohen Wahlbeteiligungen. Von 2004 bis 2014 erzielte diese Fachschaft jedes Jahr die höchste Wahlbeteiligung innerhalb der TU Dresden.

Q: Implementing meaningful equals method for non-static inner classes I am currently wondering if there is a good way of implementing an equals method for a non-static inner class in Java. I basically a class Foo with an inner-class Bar like this:
public class Foo {

  private final String foo; // constructor omitted

  public /* non-static */ class Bar {

    private final String bar; // constructor omitted

    @Override
    public boolean equals(Object other) {
      return other != null && other.getClass() == getClass()
        && ((Bar) other).bar.equals(this.bar)
        && Foo.this.equals(Foo.((Bar) other)); // Will, of course, not compile.
    }
  }

  @Override
  public boolean equals(Object other) {
    return other != null && other.getClass() == getClass()
      && ((Foo) other).foo.equals(foo);
  }
}

My classes are a lot more complex in reality and I want to reuse the Foo#equals method from within Bar#equals in order to save me a lot of code. I am now considering to make the "inner-class-relationship" explicit in order to being able to refer to the "outer" class. However, then I have to add accessor methods manually and I want to avoid this. I cannot get rid of the feeling that there should be a Java approach of doing this.

A: Yes, this is possible. This is often done when you need to pass around "Key" objects that represent a unique identifier for some set of data but do not either have the data or want to transport it.
class SomeData {
    private String data;
    public static class Key {
        private final int firstId;
        private final int secondId;

        public Key(int firstId, int secondId) {
            this.firstId = firstId;
            this.secondId = secondId;
        }

        public boolean equals(Object x) {
            if(!(x instanceof Key))
                return false;
            Key key = ((Key)x);

            return this.firstId == key.firstId
            && this.secondId == key.secondId;

        }

        // implement hashCode as well
    }
}

In the example above the inner class is static but that doesn't really matter. The only reason I set it that way is so that exterior classes could construct it. Make sure when you are overriding the .equals that you also get the .hashCode. They should change with each other.

I have been making some failed attempts to calculate interaction energy of 2 monomers using a dummy/ghost atom in NWChem6.5.
However, I'm not being able to replace H atom with a dummy/ghost atom (with no charge) in the calculation.
If I use bqH 5.966 28.410 48.528 in the geometry section and calculate odft then also the calculation an error.
Any suggestions or modification needed in the code to achieve this target will be highly appreciated.

It's a slim. I just bought it in March, so it should be good. The thing is so quiet compared to my 360 that I didn't even notice it was on.

sometimes a set a plate of frozen meat behind my (fat) ps3 to defrost it faster. those things kick out some serious heat. hrrmmm wonder if i could use it as a modern day hot water bag, as winter is coming.
I use my PS3 as a heater in the winter but in the summer I run a fan on it...I should get out more How about them SF GIANTS!
After having worked at a Roller Derby last night, I came to this conclusion...if I were single, I'd go here to meet chicks. Just the right combo of tough, independent, geeky, and smokin' hot.

"JUSTICE SHALL BE DEMANDED": SECOND SHADES' RESPONSE TO ISLANDS
May 8, 2017 The Ankh
Having seen the Spring 2017 Theatre Department production of Islands, we the board of Second Shades strongly condemn this production and the values for which it stands.
First of all, only five out of ten of the performers (including an understudy) are undergraduate Wesleyan students, and so we question the validity of this production at an educational institution. Faculty productions are meant as educational opportunities for students to grow and mature as theatre artists through collaboration with experienced theatre faculty. However, resources designated for these emerging artists have been allocated to a production that heavily features hired, professional performers. It is important to note that the production had to hire these performers in part because many students dropped out, many of whom are students of color who did not feel comfortable participating any further in this racist project. Given the outcome of the production's casting, we are left to believe that the creative team spearheaded by Ronald Jenkins did not do enough to actively seek out actors of color, specifically of Indonesian descent. Furthermore, we question the efficacy of Ellen Nerenberg's leadership and oversight as the current chair of the department, given the lack of introspection and self-awareness within this production.
The Theatre Department website states that "courses and productions reflect the interdisciplinary interests of our faculty and majors." If the production of Islands truly mirrors the values of our community, it does great disservice to the students of color and international students who have contributed to the theatre community at Wesleyan.
Although the production does feature people of color, white characters dominate the play. This dynamic is exemplified by the choice of having an actor who plays a white colonialist join ceremonial acts as part of the Indonesian community. Although we understand that an actor may be asked to take on multiple roles in a given production, the way it is handled here is tasteless. Not only is this an instance of whitewashing, it is even more insensitive as it places the body of a white European colonialist character in a colonized Indonesian space, and asks for the audience to embrace him as part of the Indonesian community depicted. In another instance, the only white woman in the ensemble dances above the rest so that the audience's attention is drawn to her, clad in Indonesian clothing. In addition, her costume is more colorful than the rest of the ensemble members, distinguishing her further from the performers of color. Similarly, the understudy for the narrator Enrique is a white student. Allowing a white performer to understudy and potentially play the role shows a blatant disregard for the original ethnicity of this historical figure. This is whitewashing.
We also question Enrique's role as the representative voice of a play about Indonesia. Despite being Magellan's slave, he was a skilled translator who in some accounts also led Spanish colonialists to a massacre. He was an important figure in early Southeast Asian history, but in the play, he is reduced to a parody. He says of himself, "I am just a slave," a mere nobody. The decision to use a clownish archetype for Enrique—the only prominent character of color— evokes the imagery of Sambo. Although the play attempts to highlight Enrique as the first person to circumnavigate the world, his use as a narrator in a performance that is solely dedicated to one island in Indonesia was awkward at best. The show condenses the richness and complexity of a people and their culture to its most profitable export, the export that Westerners value the most: the nutmeg. Characters exclaim they are nothing without the nutmeg. Although Islands attempts to shed light on the exploitation of the Rhun for its nutmeg, the play itself does not give the community any depth outside of its relationship with nutmeg. This decision is reductive, colonialist, and ironically exploitative in itself, as the show congratulates itself for depicting colonialism without actually challenging these power dynamics within the production itself.
Early on, a character makes a joke about how the nutmeg is an aphrodisiac, as it "makes your nuts mega." This sets the predicate for the misogyny and hypersexualization of Asian women present in the play. There is only one part of the 90-minute show that places an Indonesian woman in the focal point. The character delivers a monologue in which she describes sucking on a nutmeg to relieve her insomnia. This is utterly reprehensible in its insensitivity, given the horrific sex trafficking of young Asian girls that occurs in real life. Even if the sexual innuendo was not intended, the production should have been more aware of the ramifications of such a monologue. The show claims to examine molestation and rape under colonialist rule, yet the women of color are reduced to part of the background.
The show establishes the white European colonialists as those in the wrong. However, the puppet of the colonialist is brown, which reeks of colorism. How convenient that the giant symbol of evil white European colonialism is represented by a brown-skinned puppet!
The show exploits revolutions and sells them as if they were a product. While the production wanted to use the exploitation of Rhun as a springboard to discuss themes of colonialism and histories of oppression in a broader sense, it fails to recognize how these different experiences cannot be interchanged and generalized across the world.
We are deeply disappointed in the production of Islands and its blatant racism, Eurocentrism and misogyny. We demand the following:
1. Collect and analyze data, and release an annual report on statistics regarding diversity in the Theatre Department
2. Incorporate diversity requirements for the major
3. Expand course offerings from qualified faculty that are not about the white Western canon
4. Hire tenure-track professors of color
5. Increase student participation in season planning
The Theatre Department keeps two ghost lights on as a symbol of solidarity. However, symbols are not enough. We urge the Department to back up their pledge to social justice with concrete actions.
We await your response by Monday, May 15th.

Impact of Coronavirus on UKRI-supported research
Our funding supports research and knowledge exchange (KE) activities in higher education providers (HEPs).
Our core funding is allocated each year using formulae. We notify providers annually how much formula-based funding they will receive for the coming academic year (1 August to 31 July). You will find more information on how we do this below. Sometimes there are additional requirements that providers have to fulfil in relation to these formula-based funds, such as the submission of a strategy on how the money will be spent.
Our core funding streams are quality-related research (QR) funding, the Higher Education Innovation Fund (HEIF), and the Research Capital Investment Fund (RCIF).
Some of our funding is allocated on the basis of successful applications to funding schemes that are time-limited. These funding schemes are announced at various times of the year, and are earmarked for specific purposes. Examples of these funding schemes are the Research England Development (RED) Fund, and the Connecting Capability Fund (CCF).
The remainder of our allocations are for national facilities and initiatives to support the development of national infrastructure. Examples are funding to support museums, galleries and collections, and funding to support Jisc. These grants are announced as they are allocated, which may be at any time of the year.
Sign up to our newsletter to keep informed of new opportunities.
Dual support funding
Public funding for research in English higher education is administered under a 'dual support' system.
Under this system, we provide annual funding for English HEPs in the form of a 'block grant', and the other UKRI councils provide funding for specific research projects and programmes. Research funding for HEPs also comes from charities, businesses, government departments and other sources.
Research England funding supports HEPs research infrastructure and enables them to undertake ground-breaking research in keeping with their missions.
Our funding to HEPs for knowledge exchange complements funding from the Research Councils and the business-focused funding of Innovate UK.
What is our core funding for?
In general, providers can spend their core formula-based research funding on their own priorities so long as these relate to activities we are empowered to fund, namely research, knowledge exchange, and related activities. They are not expected to mirror our calculations in their own internal spending. (One exception is the Global Challenge Research Fund, more details on our GCRF page.)
Providers must spend their core KE funding on KE in keeping with their KE strategies.
This allows them to target spending towards their own priorities, so long as these relate to activities that we are empowered to fund: research, knowledge exchange and related activities. It means that providers can be autonomous and does not impose a burden of accounting in detail for expenditure.
'Quality-related' research funding
The majority of our funds for research are distributed on the basis of research quality, and take into account the volume and relative cost of research in different areas. This is called 'quality-related research (QR) funding.
Quality is measured in a periodic exercise known as the Research Excellence Framework (REF) which we administer on behalf of all four devolved higher education funding bodies.
Find out more about quality-related research (QR) funding.
Higher Education Innovation Funding (HEIF)
The majority of our funds for KE are distributed on the basis of KE performance.

'Harbor Command' visits the Richmond District
April 20, 2019 April 21, 2019 SF Film Locations
The television show 'Harbor Command', starring Wendell Cory as Captain Ralph Baxter, ran from the fall of 1957 until the summer of 1958. Most of the episodes were filmed around the Embarcadero, but in the episode 'Lovers' Lane Bandits' the Harbor Command takes a trip to the Richmond District. A teenage girl, who attends George Washington High School in the Richmond District, sneaks out of the house after she's been grounded to meet her boyfriend at a "lovers' lane' near the Pesidio. She witnesses a murder there, and, unfortunately for her, one of the killers has seen her, although she doesn't know that. Captain Baxter learns about the girl through detective work and is desperately trying to find her before the killers do.
Baxter goes to the old Playland-at-the-Beach amusement park to talk to her father who works there. Baxter and his partner park at the Cabrillo streetcar turnaround near the Funhouse. The bottom picture is where they entered Playland from the Great Highway today.
Baxter questions a fellow who works at the Funhouse to find out where the girl's father is. This scene has an extremely rare shot of Laffing Sal in action at the Playland Funhouse. Behind them is the Playland Merry-go-round. The merry-go-round is still in operation today at the Yerba Buena Center.
This is about the spot where the Funhouse once was.
Baxter learns from her father that she's meeting a friend at a drug store at Balboa Street and 42nd Avenue. Here, the two girls leave the drugstore heading west toward the beach. This is the northeast corner where the girls were walking today. I couldn't get the same line up on the corner because of parked cars.
The killers stalk behind them in a truck.
When we next see the two girls they're at the corner of Balboa and 37th, five blocks east in the opposite direction from where they were heading the last time we saw them. The girl with the light hair has a real problem; she's witnessed a murder and she knows she should tell someone, but her dad had grounded her and when he finds out she sneaked out she's sure he'll just kill her! Hey, honey, turn around! Your dad probably won't kill you, but the two guys in the truck behind you will!
When her friend goes into the market on the corner one of the killers grabs her. Oh, oh, this doesn't look good! Somebody had better learn to obey her dad in the future.
Her friend comes out of the store to find that she's disappeared. This was at the northwest corner of Balboa Street and 37th Avenue.
But this teenager has a guardian angel, Ralph Baxter, approaching the corner where she was taken north from 37th Avenue.
Her worried friend tells Baxter the direction they went.
The bad guys turn north off Balboa onto 40th Avenue.
Harbor Command misses the turn at 40th and in a action reminiscent to the chase scene in 'Bullitt' burn up rubber backing up to 40th Avenue.
They head up 40th to Geary Blvd.
On Point Lobos Road the Harbor Command police cut the truck off right about here, just down from the Cliff House.
As Baxter and his partner approach the truck, they threaten to shoot the girl if the officers don't back away.
When the teenager faints, (well, I probably would have too) Baxter gets a clear line of fire and shoots the man with the gun. That's Sutro Heights behind him. He pulls the driver out of the truck, and case closed. The two videos below are the Funhouse scene from the show, and Laffing Sal today in Pier 45 at Fisherman's Wharf. They say it's the same one; judge for yourself.
1906 + 113
Today is the one hundred and thirteenth anniversary of the 1906 Earthquake and Fire in San Francisco. For the first time in awhile they didn't extend the April 15th tax filing deadline so I was able to go over to San Francisco on the day before the anniversary to take some pictures. These are location shots of high density photographs of the disaster, many of them from the Shorpy Archives vintage picture collection.
We'll start at the foot of Market Street looking west. The crowned Call Bulletin Newspaper Building, the tallest building in San Francisco at the time, can be seen in the far background on the left in the vintage picture. That was the ruins of an interesting looking building where the Hyatt Regency is today on the right.
We're further up Market Street now at Montgomery Street. There are three survivors today from the vintage picture; the Call Building on the left, remodeled now and called the Central Tower, the gothic looking Mutual Savings Bank Building directly across from the Call Building, and the reddish-brown Chronicle Building, taller now that it was back then. (blogspot.com)
New Montgomery and Mission Streets, looking north toward Market Street showing the ruins of the Palace Hotel and the rebuilt Palace Hotel there today. The building in the background is the one on the right in the previous vintage picture taken at Market and Montgomery Streets.
Army soldiers brought down from the Presidio marching past the Call Building on fire: Woe betides to any looters they may have come across; they shot them on the spot back then! (blogspot.com)
We've moved north to Pine Street looking east past Kearny Street. That's the Bank of America Building on the left center in the current picture.
We're up on the top of Nob Hill now. That's the gutted James Flood mansion, the only mansion on Nob Hill to survive the earthquake and fire. I don't mind a cable car photo bombing one of my pictures any time. The Flood mansion is now the exclusive Pacific Union Club.
Looking toward the south western corner of California and Powell Streets where Leland Stanford's mansion stood. Farther up California Street are the ruins of Mark Hopkins home, now the Mark Hopkins Hotel.
Refugees heading east and west along Market Street near 3rd: The Ferry Building is in the background. It's interesting how most of them are following traffic rules and staying on the right in both directions.
And, of course, most San Franciscans favorite survivor, the Ferry Building; roughed up, but she took it well. In spite of these monstrosities they're putting up nowadays, like the Sales Force Tower, the Ferry Building is still the "Grande Dame" of San Francisco.
What you miss with Photoshop
April 4, 2019 November 15, 2019 SF Film Locations
Photoshop is a great computer program that even an amateur like me can have fun experimenting with, but you have to leave a lot out to get a decent fade in with then and now pictures. This set is a Photoshop collection of pictures of mine along with my original photos; sort of comparing two comparison types of comparison pictures.
A hoodlum kidnaps Vincent Parry (Humphrey Bogart) and drives him to a spot below the southern entrance to the Golden Gate Bridge in the 1947 film 'Dark Passage'. Since September 11th 2001, this area has been off limits to the public.
Fisherman's Wharf near the end of Taylor Street at twilight in the 1950's:
Orson Welles exits the Funhouse at Playland-at-the-Beach leaving a dying Rita Hayworth inside in another 1947 movie 'The Lady from Shanghai'. Welles is walking toward the Great Highway. Playland was demolished in 1972.
After being shot twice and left in an empty prison cell on Alcatraz by John Vernon and Angie Dickinson, Lee Marvin recovers consciousness and swims back to San Francisco from Alcatraz with two bullets in him to seek revenge. That's quite a feat! The movie was 'Point Blank' from 1967. The modern picture is the current San Francisco skyline from Alcatraz Island.
Lana Turner enters the old I Magnin Department Store on Geary Blvd. across the street from Union Square in "Portrait in Black' from 1960. This is an effort to establish her alibi while she plots with Anthony Quinn to kill her husband. In the background is the St. Francis Hotel on Powell Street.
"Look out!" Almost a head on crash with a cable car and an automobile at Hyde and Greenwich on Russian Hill: The vintage picture is a Fred Lyon photo from the 1950's. This picture is sometimes labeled as looking toward Telegraph Hill from Lombard Street at Hyde, but it's not.
"Come all ye young sailormen listen to me, and I'll sing you a song of the fish in the sea."
Fisherman's Wharf Boat Lagoon in 1939 in a picture from the Charles Cushman Collection. In the background of the vintage picture is the large gas tank near Fisherman's Wharf located there from the early 1930's to the 1960's.


If you dream that you or someone has golf balls for eyes, then it means that you are not seeing eye to eye with someone on a situation. You don't understand their perspective or they don't know where you are coming from.
To see or hold a golf club in your dream symbolizes your drive, energy and determination. These are the qualities that you need to achieve your goals. More directly, the dream may indicate your desire to play or learn golf.

Framing Jewish Culture
Boundaries and Representations
Social groups: religious groups and communities
Relating to Jewish people and groups
I thought you would find this interesting: Framing Jewish Culture Boundaries and Representations Bronner, Simon J. Jewish Cultural Studies, Volume 4 (2014)
FormateBook
Modernity offers people choices about who they want to be and how they want to appear to others. The way in which Jews choose to frame their identity establishes the dynamic of their social relations with other Jews and non-Jews - a dynamic complicated by how non-Jews position the boundaries around what and who they define as Jewish. This book uncovers these processes, historically, as well as in contemporary behavior, and finds explanations for the various manifestations, in feeling and action, of 'being Jewish.' Boundaries and borders raise fundamental questions about the difference between Jews and non-Jews. At root, the question is how 'Jewish' is understood in social situations where people recognize or construct boundaries between their own identity and those of others. The question is important because this is by definition the point at which the lines of demarcation between Jews and non-Jews, and between different groupings of Jews, are negotiated. Collectively, the contributors to the book expand our understanding of the social dynamics of framing Jewish identity. The book opens with an introduction that locates the issues raised by the contributors in terms of the scholarly traditions from which they have evolved. Part I presents four essays dealing with the construction and maintenance of boundaries - two by scholars showing how boundaries come to be etched on an ethnic landscape and two by activists who question and adjust distinctions among neighbors. Part II focuses on expressive means of conveying identity and memory, while, in Part III, the discussion turns to museum exhibitions and festive performances as locations for the negotiation of identity in the public sphere. A lively discussion forum concludes the book with a consideration of the paradoxes of Jewish heritage revival in Poland, and the perception of that revival by Jews and non-Jews. *** ..".these essays help us understand the social dynamics of Jewish identity and how identity is constructed in modern life." -- AJL Reviews, February/March 2015 (Series: Jewish Cultural Studies - Vol. 4) [Subject: Jewish Studies, Cultural Studies]
Simon J. Bronner is Distinguished Professor of American Studies and Folklore and Founding Director of the Center for Holocaust and Jewish Studies at the Pennsylvania State University, Harrisburg. He is also the convener of the Jewish Folklore and Ethnology Section of the American Folklore Society. His books include Folklore: The Basics (2017) and Explaining Traditions: Folk Behavior in Modern Culture (2011).

Kerr wanted his team to take care of the ball.
James exits the game at 1:47 left in the first quarter. The Warriors go on an 10-0 run to finish the frame and take a seven-point lead to the bench. James has 15 points on 7-of-8 shooting. Thompson has been back to his normal self for Golden State, scoring 16 points on 5-of-7 shooting. It's been fun, but the result is the same. The Warriors have the advantage.
Kerr wanted his team to take care of the ball. That hasn't happened. The Warriors already have 11 turnovers with seven minutes left in the first half.
This is getting ridiculous. James has 21 points in 13 minutes. He has missed on one shot so far. And the Cavs are down 46-43.
Another injured player worth keeping an eye on is Indiana wing OG Anunoby, a combo forward who is still recovering from an ACL tear he suffered in January. Teams have been monitoring Anunoby, even with the possibility that he might not play at all next season.
The Lakers have been hopeful that Anunoby would somehow last through the first round to their second pick, No. 28. Of all the things their young core of recent draftees lacks, a defensive edge tops the list, and that is Anunoby's strength.
While there is some concern about whether he is more of a small forward or power forward, Anunoby shrugged that off, saying Three and four are kind of the same thing now.
But the Lakers will have to dodge plenty of interested teams should they decide that Anunoby is their guy. The Heat, with the 14th pick, have also shown interest, as have the Blazers at 15.

Victor Martinez hospitalized overnight, goes on DL due to irregular heartbeat
The illness that forced Victor Martinez to leave Thursday night's game in the seventh inning led to the 38-year-old being hospitalized overnight.
Tigers manager Brad Ausmus told MLB Network Radio on Friday that Martinez was taken to the hospital for observation. Before Friday night's game, Ausmus told reporters Martinez had been diagnosed with an irregular heartbeat and would be placed on the 10-day disabled list.
Martinez was still in the Tigers clubhouse immediately after Detroit's 5-3 home win over the Rays on Thursday but declined to speak to reporters about his condition, according to the Detroit News.
Ausmus told reporters after the game that Martinez had cold sweats, was dizzy and his heart was racing.
Martinez barely made it to first base after reaching on an error in the seventh. He was replaced by pinch-runner Dixon Machado.
Ferrell signed a 10-day contract with Dallas on Jan. 28, started in his Mavericks debut and hit a pair of game-sealing free throws in a road win against the Spurs on the 29th. He then outscored Kyrie Irving in a victory over the Cavaliers on the 30th.
On Feb. 3 against the Trail Blazers, he hit his ninth three of the game — tying a rookie record, giving him a game-high 32 points — with 19 seconds left in the Mavs' 108-104 win, propelling Dallas to its first four-game winning streak of the season.

Ichiro's arm shows its age in place where legend was born
Ichiro Suzuki had a chance Wednesday to reprise the throw that made him famous 16 years ago. Same stadium, basically the same spot in the outfield.
Problem: Not the same arm. It's 43 now. Father Time has claimed another victim.
Ichiro was playing right field for the Marlins against the A's in Oakland when Jed Lowrie grounded a single through the hole. Ichiro came up throwing. To be fair, it looked like he wanted to go home before going to third.
Bradley's effort and celebration was short-lived, as Mark Canha went yard in the bottom of the 10th to give the A's a walk-off win.
I feel like it has a lot more rhythm to it, a lot less herky-jerky. Started from nothing. I think, working off the pitcher, being able to guess, Tebow told me after that May 2 game. Getting my front foot down in time, being able to adjust to righties, lefties, submarine guys, I've seen them all now. Today, I think I only saw lefties. So it's really just trying to be locked in and see everything.
SS Alcides Escobar
Age: 30. Status: Free agent after 2017
Need to know: He was undeniably a huge part of Kansas City's back-to-back World Series runs. No doubt about that. But he's not what he once was. He's still an elite defensive shortstop, sure, but at the plate, he's far below average. Like, really far below average. Think about this: For the stat OPS+, 100 is league average. Escobar was at 67 in 2015, 72 in 2016 and he's at 21 this season (it's not an accumulative stat, btw). By more traditional numbers, in 2017 he's hitting .180 with a .211 on-base percentage, numbers which rank 176th and 180th, respectively, of 180 qualified hitters in the majors. It's hard to imagine they'd get anything more than a low-level, low-ceiling prospect in return.

Red Sox fan dives head-first into Faceplant Hall of Fame after whiffing on foul ball
This could go in the Hall of Fame of epic face plants.
This Red Sox fan reached for a foul ball in the upper deck, and landed two rows from whence he came.
The good thing is, the Red Sox fan seemed to be in good spirits and waved off additional help from security. It could have ended a lot worse, especially if his momentum carried him further down.
There was probably an oh s' moment for the fan, but this one is definitely all good. Everyone had a good laugh. Slightly scary to watch.
No harm, no foul. Except for the ball.
Tebow's home ballpark (for now) is kind of unique.
When the Fireflies aren't in town, it's open to the public from sunrise to sunset, like any city park in Columbia. The wide concourse serves as a running/walking track ' each lap is a third of a mile ' and people bring their lunches to eat on the many tables around the field. It's a pretty cool setup.
On game days, Fireflies employees politely clear out the stadium a little more than three hours before first pitch, which means the public can actually be out there watching Tebow and his teammates go through the first half-hour or so of their pregame routine for free. And maybe even pregame hacky sack.
He's been a full-time starter for six seasons, and in three of those seasons, he's been equal to or worse than any available player the Royals could have found to play first base (a call-up from the minors or a guy available as a midseason free agent).

B. The desert island that a rabbi, a Scotsman, and a nymphomaniac are stranded on lies ___ leagues (rounded to the nearest team) from the Galápagos Islands.
C. In what novel besides The Mill on the Floss does the phrase "Call me Ishmael" not appear?
Answers: A. Wrong B. Wrong C. Wrong. A legitimate Nobel Prize candidate would have recognized these as trick questions and countered with 3 authentic Brain Twisters. New Rule: Imposters must return this claim form, torn in half, with a check or money order in the amount of $1.
5. DO I THINK LIKE A NOBEL LAUREATE?
Imagine yourself in the following situations and describe what you would do if:
A. The Queen of Sweden "came on" to me as I sat waiting to make my acceptance speech.
B. Greenpeace picketed the awards ceremony, condemning me as a guppy-murderer.
C. Visa declined my card when I tried buying the Awards Committee a round of drinks.
This has been a test of your sangfroid. These situations and the proper responses are listed in "So You've Won a Nobel," the pamphlet included with the welcoming fruit basket in your Stockholm hotel room. (Do NOT accept pamphlets tendered by masked gypsies riding in the same hotel elevator.)

}}Ranunculus cortusifolius Willd. é uma espécie de plantas com flor pertencente ao género Ranunculus da família Ranunculaceae.Ranunculus cortusifolius. Germplasm Resources Information Network (GRIN). USDA ARS. Retrieved 27 April 2017. A espécie é um endemismo da Macaronésia, onde ocorre na Madeira, Canárias e Açores, sendo conhecida pelos nomes comuns de de bafo-de-boi e douradinha. A espécie é comercializada no mercado internacional de plantas ornamentais sob os nomes de Azores buttercup ou Canary buttercup, estando naturalizada em algumas regiões mais húmidas da Califórnia.
Descrição
A espécie ocorre nos habitats mais húmidos das ilhas Canárias e dos Açores, sendo frequentemente cultivada como planta ornamental nas regiões subtropicais e temperadas de todo o mundo.  Ocorre com maior frequência em zonas de montanha, em geral ligada a formações de laurissilva (nas Canárias entre os 800 e os 1500 m de altitude, nos Açores a menores altitudes) e em vales húmidos e sombrios em zonas mais baixas (a partir dos 200 m de altitude). Há registos de que a espécie se tornou naturalizada em partes da Califórnia.

É uma planta robusta e velosa (recoberta de grossos tricomas) que apresenta tubérculos. As folhas são basais, com 30 cm de comprimento, de forma orbicular-cordiforme com lóbulos pouco profundos. A forma das folhas, semelhantes às do género Cortusa, deu origem ao epíteto específico cortusifolia (com folhas de Cortusa'').

As flores são amarelas, muito vistosas, agrupadas em inflorescências do tipo subcorimboso. Cada flor pode medir até 5 cm de diâmetro, com 5 pétalas de coloração amarelo vivo.

Apresenta raiz grumosa, formada por fibras grossas, carnudas e fasciculadas. Caule em forma de hastes de 65-120 cm de altura, terete e, tal como a folhagem, peludo com tricomas volumosos e dilatados na base. As folhas mais próximas da base apresentam pecíolos longos e peludos, são grandes com morfologia foliar entre orbicular e reniforme, com três a cinco lobos que se subdividem e cortam em vários lóbulos agudos, ou grandes dentes afiados, com margens cortadas e serrilhadas, formando um conjunto com estruturas um tanto ou quando radial e dicotómica. As folhas superiores gradualmente menores, sésseis, partidas em cinco, por vezes apenas três, segmentos lanceolados, grosseiramente serrilhados nas margens, com venação paralela.

As flores ocorrem em inflorescências terminais entre cimosas e paniculadas, com pecíolos florais teretes. Cálice de cinco sépalas ovato-lanceoladas,hirsutas, herbáceas, pálidas e escamosas na margem. Pétalas cinco, grandes, amplamente obovadas, amarelo muito brilhante. Estames muito numerosos. Cabeça dos pistilos curta, oval. Ovário redondo a ovado, comprimido lateralmente, hirsuto, afilando para um estilete recurvado que raramente atinge o comprimento do ovário. Cabeça de fruto semelhante, mas maior.

Don't Trash That Old Office Chair — Freecycle It!
Once, when I was a facilities coordinator, I had to clear out half of a floor which had been vacated by a business unit several months before. The cubicles were still full of stuff. Files that needed to be destroyed. Random personal belongings. And what ended up being piles and piles of barely used and often brand new office supplies.
I set up an empty conference room in the unused section of the floor as a supply depot, and encouraged the remaining business units to take what they wanted. But eventually, the unused section of the floor was leased back to the building and I had to throw everything that was left out. As I filled up gondola after gondola with perfectly good stuff, I knew the landfill was not where it should be going, but I didn't know what else to do. That was over ten years ago, and I still feel guilty over the waste.
Over the years, I've become aware of a couple organizations that might have been able to direct me on how to keep those materials out of the landfill. Here are some of the organizations I know are working to help facility managers upcycle or freecycle materials from their facility.
Scarce in Glen Ellyn, a suburb of Chicago, does a ton of great work around recycling materials from the residential sector. But they also accept books, office supplies, office furniture, even pianos (!) and make them available for free to local schools.
DeliverGood in Calgary (Canada), accepts office furniture and office supplies and makes them available for free to non-profits. I'm talking conference tables, workstations, paper towel dispensers, and other goods.
I hope there are many more such organizations, and I'm hoping you can help educate me. If you know of one, give them a shoutout here with a link to their website (if it's handy), their service area, and the kinds of items they accept.
What are the kinds of challenges you're facing regarding the mountain of supplies, furniture, and other still-usable materials that are in facilities? What do you do with it when you don't need it anymore?
Hi, Naomi. Thanks for the article on this important topic. Here at NOLS, we donate surplus furniture, odd bits of lumber and old paints to non-profits such as Habitat for Humanity who happen to have one of their Restores nearby. Check out habitat.org/restores. I also just found about the Freecycle Network (freecycle.org), though I haven't used it yet. One more thing to share: As a public agency, NOLS must take care to only donate surplus to legitimate non-profits and to make a record of the disposal. If you also work for a public agency, it's a good idea to make sure you are correctly following your organizations disposal policy! Thanks, again.
Hi Brian. That's fantastic. Thanks for shouting out the Restore. Looks like they accept a very wide range of materials: "appliances, furniture, building materials, household goods and more." And thank you for the point about following the organization's disposal policy. Does needing to find that that disposal documentation create any challenges for you? If so, how have you solved for that?
Sorry for the delayed response! We are a very small organization and so don't have to handle tons of surplus. Accordingly, our documentation process is very simple. Once we determine an item is no longer needed, we put it on a list of things to be disposed. Our Executive Board eventually passes a resolution declaring the list of items surplus and then we are free to dispose of it. I update my list of disposed items showing the surplus resolution number, the date of disposal and where the items went to. If anyone should want to know, as a state auditor recently did, I can account for our surplus. Any documentation I create can be done in Microsoft Word or Excel. We don't manage enough surplus to warrant any special inventory tracking software. Hope that answers your question(?). Thanks, again!
Hi Brian — Thank you for the detail. I think it will be helpful for others who are considering their process!
Hi Naomi. Another alternative is to consider refurbishing, which I've been told saves over 90% vs. buying new. If what you have is generally damaged or just LOOKS old, worn, scratched, or discolored, etc., in most cases, you can make your old look like new. Not only will you save $$$, you will keep from adding to overall waste...especially when you realize the huge amount of ADDITIONAL WASTE generated every time you BUY NEW, which includes waste from manufacturing --> packaging --> shipping, etc. Oh, and don't forget to add the waste from the energy required at each step! Your thoughts?
Hi Dave — I think refurbishing is a front-line strategy. There's no sense in throwing out a perfectly functional office chair if all it needs is a serious deep clean or maybe swapping out the chair pad. Systems furniture panels can also be swapped out for a refreshed look.

The Pilot and Seed grant programs sponsored by The Ohio State University, College of Dentistry are designed to advance our careers by providing the opportunity to pursue scholarly activity (Pilot) and/or the opportunity to collect preliminary data for extramural sponsored grant applications (Seed). Awards are typically from $5,000 to $25,000.
The Seed Grant Program
The Seed Grant Program will support new areas of research for Principal Investigators (PIs) so that PIs may generate preliminary data for an extramural sponsored grant application(s).
The Seed Grant Program is intended to support initial stages of new research projects, with a special emphasis on innovative, interdisciplinary, and collaborative projects that advance a research project to the point at which it can attract external funding. The applicant must clearly and convincingly demonstrate that the proposed project represents a new research direction and, therefore, requires seed funding under this program, in order to successfully compete for extramural funds to support the project long term. Ideal projects include work that develops new methods, applies theories or methods to new substantive areas, or translates between previously unrelated theoretical perspectives.
Applicants must be full-time (> 75% FTE) associated track, clinical track or clinical scholar tenure track faculty at the time of application. Note that the principal Investigator (PI) must be from the College of Dentistry and that collaborators can be from other Colleges. Only one proposal per applicant will be accepted in any application cycle.
The Clinical Scholar Research Pilot Program
The Clinical Scholar Research Pilot Program will support clinical faculty to advance careers by funding research projects for the purpose of publishing in peer-reviewed journals.
