Fiddler on the Roof is a 1971 American musical comedy-drama film produced and directed by Norman Jewison. It is an adaptation of the 1964 Broadway musical of the same name, with music composed by Jerry Bock, lyrics by Sheldon Harnick, and screenplay by Joseph Stein and based on stories by Sholem Aleichem. Starring Topol, Norma Crane, Leonard Frey, Molly Picon, and Paul Mann, the film centers on Tevye, the father of five daughters, and his attempts to maintain his Jewish religious and cultural traditions as outside influences encroach upon the family's lives. He must cope both with the strong-willed actions of his three older daughters, who wish to marry for love – each one's choice of a husband moves further away from the customs of his faith – and with the edict of the Tsar who evicts the Jews from the town of Anatevka.
Throughout the film, Tevye talks to God and directly to the audience, breaking the fourth wall. In these monologues, Tevye ponders tradition, the difficulties of being poor, the Jewish community's constant fear of harassment from their non-Jewish neighbors, and important family decisions.
The film was released to critical acclaim and won three Academy Awards, including Best Music, Scoring Adaptation and Original Song Score for arranger-conductor John Williams. It was nominated for several more, including Best Picture, Best Actor for Topol as Tevye, and Best Supporting Actor for Frey, who played Motel Kamzoil the Tailor. Topol and Frey had performed in stage productions of the musical; Topol as Tevye in the London production and Frey in a minor part as Mendel, the rabbi's son, on Broadway.[3]

The film's plot largely follows that of the musical from which it is adapted.
Act 1[edit]
In 1905, Tevye, a poor Jewish milkman living in the Ukrainian village of Anatevka, a typical shtetl in the Pale of Settlement of Imperial Russia, compares the lives of the Jews of Anatevka to a fiddler on the roof (who appears throughout the film in this metaphorical role), using tradition to "scratch out a pleasant, simple tune" without breaking their necks.
In town, Tevye meets Perchik, a radical Marxist from Kiev, who admonishes them for talking but doing nothing about news of Jews being banished from their villages by the tsar. Tevye invites Perchik to stay with his family, offering him room and board in exchange for Perchik tutoring his daughters.
Tevye arranges for his oldest daughter, Tzeitel, to marry Lazar Wolf, an older, and widowed, wealthy butcher. Tzeitel is in love with her childhood sweetheart, Motel Kamzoil, and begs her father not to make her marry Lazar. Although he is initially angry, Tevye realizes that Tzeitel loves Motel and yields to his daughter's demands.
In order to convince his wife Golde that Tzeitel should not be married to Lazar, Tevye claims to have had a nightmare. He says that Golde's deceased grandmother told him Tzeitel is supposed to marry Motel, and that Lazar's late wife, Fruma-Sarah, threatened to kill Tzeitel if the two are married. Golde concludes that the dream was a message from their ancestors, and Tzeitel and Motel arrange to be married.
Meanwhile, Tevye's second daughter, Hodel, begins to fall in love with Perchik. They argue over the story of Leah and the place of old religious traditions in a changing world. The two dance together, which is considered forbidden by Orthodox Jewish tradition. Perchik tells Hodel that they just changed an old tradition.
At Tzeitel and Motel's wedding, an argument breaks out after Lazar presents the newlyweds with gifts. When Tevye tries to speak to Lazar about the Torah, Lazar refuses to listen, arguing that the wedding should have been his all along. Minutes later, another argument breaks out over whether a girl should be able to choose her own husband. Perchik addresses the crowd and says that, since they love each other, it should be left for the couple to decide. He creates further controversy by asking Hodel to dance with him.
The crowd gradually warms to the idea and Tevye and Golde, then Motel and Tzeitel, join in dancing. The wedding proceeds with great joy. Suddenly, the military presence in the town, along with the constable, arrive and begin a pogrom, the "demonstration" which he had earlier warned Tevye was coming. The constable stops the attack on the wedding celebration after Perchik is wounded in the scuffle with the tsar's men; however, he allows the men to continue destroying property in the village. Tevye and the immediate family stand still, until Tevye angrily orders them to clean up instead of standing around. Tevye silently asks why God allowed this to happen to them.
Intermission[edit]
In its original theatrical release, the film was shown with an intermission and entr'acte music.[4].
Months later, Perchik prepares to leave Anatevka for the revolution. He proposes to Hodel, and she accepts. When they tell Tevye, he is furious that they have decided to marry without his permission, but he again relents because they love each other. Tevye tells Golde his reasons for consenting to their daughter's marriage, which leads them to re-evaluate their own arranged marriage. Tevye and Golde ultimately realize that, despite having been paired by a matchmaker, they do love each other.
Weeks later, Perchik is arrested in Kiev and is exiled to Siberia. Hodel decides to join him there. She promises Tevye that she and Perchik will be married under a canopy. Meanwhile, Tzeitel and Motel become parents, and the latter finally buys the sewing machine for which he has long scrimped and saved.
Tevye's third daughter Chava falls in love with a Russian Orthodox Christian named Fyedka. Tevye tells Chava to be distant friends with Fyedka, because of the difference in their religions. When Chava eventually works up the courage to ask Tevye's permission to marry Fyedka, Tevye tells her that marrying outside the family's faith is against tradition. He forbids her from having any contact with Fyedka or from even mentioning his name. The next morning, Fyedka and Chava elope and are married in a Russian Orthodox church.
Golde learns of the marriage when she meets up with the priest. When a grief-stricken Golde tells Tevye about the marriage, he tells her that Chava is dead to the family and that they shall forget her altogether. Chava asks Tevye to accept her marriage. In a soliloquy, Tevye concludes that he cannot accept Chava marrying a non-Jew. He accuses her of abandoning the Jewish faith and disowns her.
One winter day, the Jews of Anatevka are notified that they have three days to leave the village or be forced out by the government. Tevye, his family and friends begin packing up to leave, heading for various parts of Europe, Palestine, and the United States.
Yente, the Matchmaker, plans to emigrate to Jerusalem, and says goodbye to Golde with an embrace before departing. Lazar plans to emigrate to Chicago, to live with his former brother in law, whom he detests, but "a relative is a relative". Lazar and Tevye share one last embrace before departing.
Tevye receives letters from Hodel mentioning that she is working hard while Perchik stays in the Siberian prison. It is hoped that when Perchik is released, they will join the others in the United States. Chava and her husband Fyedka come to Tevye's house and tell the family that they are leaving for Kraków in Russian Poland, being unable to stay in a place that would force innocent people out. Tevye shows signs of forgiving Chava by murmuring under his breath "And God be with you", silently urging Tzeitel to repeat his words to Chava. Golde calls out to Chava and Fyedka, telling them where they will be living in New York with a relative.
The Constable silently watches as the mass evacuation of Anatevka takes place. The community forms their circle at a crossroad one last time before scattering in different directions. Tevye spots the fiddler and motions to him to come along, symbolizing that even though he must leave his town, his traditions will always be with him.

Production[edit]
The decision to cast Topol, instead of Zero Mostel, as Tevye was a somewhat controversial one, as the role had originated with Mostel and he had made it famous. Years later, Jewison said he felt Mostel's larger-than-life personality, while fine on stage, would cause film audiences to see him as Mostel, rather than the character of Tevye.[6]
Principal photography was done at Pinewood Studios in Buckinghamshire, England. Most of the exterior shots were done in SFR Yugoslavia—specifically in Mala Gorica, Lekenik, and Zagreb within the Yugoslav constituent republic of Croatia. Though the area was under heavy snow during location scouting in 1969, during the filming the producers had to ship in marble dust to stand in for snow.[7] Three hundred extras conversant in various foreign languages were used, as were flocks of geese and pigs and their handlers.[8] Isaac Stern performed the violin solos.[7]
Director Jewison has a cameo as a rabbi (voice only) during Tevye's dream sequence.[citation needed]
Differences from the Broadway musical[edit]
The film follows the plot of the stage play very closely, retaining nearly all of the play's dialogue, although it omits the songs "Now I Have Everything" and "The Rumor (I Just Heard)".[9][4] Lyrical portions of "Tevye's Dream (tailor Motel Kemzoil)" were omitted to avoid repetition. The film's soundtrack release notably contained some of these omissions, indicating they were removed during filming. These include Golde blessing herself, before going back to sleep.
Changes were also made in the song "Tradition," with the film omitting the dialogue between Reb Nachum the beggar (who, in the film, cannot speak) and Lazar Wolf as well as dialogue spoken by Yente and Avram. In addition, in the film, two men argue about whether a horse claimed to be six years old was actually twelve, rather than whether the horse was actually a mule. The LP film soundtrack notably retained their names; Yitzhak and Avram, however this was also omitted the film's release. Instead, an on-set, improvised take of Topol (saying 'he sold him'), rather than the recorded dubbing, was used.
Seven additional scenes were added to the film:
The Constable gets orders from his superior for a "demonstration" against the Jews (referred to by the superior as "Christ-killers") in Anatevka.
Perchik is arrested at a workers' rally in Kiev.
Golde goes to the priest to look for Chava (described by her in the stage production). She is confronted there with Christian images (of historically Jewish individuals) in a juxtaposition with the synagogue montage at the start of the film.
Motel gets dressed for his upcoming wedding to Tzeitel.
The rabbi and his students inside the synagogue receive news of the arrival of Motel's new sewing machine.
The rabbi takes the Torah out of the ark inside the synagogue for the last time. He weeps and chants quietly about having to abandon the synagogue.
Tevye feeds his animals in the barn for the final time. He tells his lame horse to take care of his leg and to treat his new owner and master well.
The scene with Hodel and Perchik, where he plans to leave to start a revolution, was extended in the film. A new song sung by Perchik was recorded ("Any Day Now"), but was omitted from the final print; however, it was included in the 2004 reissue of the soundtrack. When the film was re-released to theaters in 1979, 32 minutes were cut, including the songs "Far from the Home I Love" and "Anatevka".
In the film, Tevye and Lazar Wolf discuss Wolf's proposed marriage to Tzeitel in Wolf's home, while in the stage version, the two meet in a tavern. The film shows Wolf's home as filled with golden artifacts. Prior to Lazar Wolf entering the scene, Tevye speaks to a female servant, who tells him not to touch anything.
Although a faithful adaptation of the original stage version, Fiddler scholar Jan Lisa Huttner has noted several differences between stage and screen.[9][10] She argues that changes in American culture and politics and developments in Israel led the filmmakers to portray certain characters differently and to offer a different version of Anatevka.[9] For example, the Broadway production cast Bea Arthur as a tall, booming Yente, while the film portrays Yente as tiny and timid. Huttner also notes that the "Chagall color palette" of the original Broadway production was exchanged for a grittier, more realistic depiction of the village of Anatevka.[9]
Release[edit]
Roadshow presentation[edit]
Because the film follows the stage musical so closely, and the musical did not have an overture, the filmmakers chose to eliminate the customary film overture played before the beginning of most motion pictures shown in a roadshow-style presentation. However, there is a solo by the Fiddler played over the opening credits (after the conclusion of "Tradition"), an intermission featuring entr'acte music, and exit music played at the end after the closing credits.
The film was a success, earning United Artists profits of $6.1 million, plus distribution profits of $8 million.[11]
On review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an 83% rating based on 40 reviews, with an average of 7.7/10. The consensus summarizes: "A bird may love a fish - and musical fans will love this adaptation of Fiddler on the Roof, even if it is not quite as transcendent as the long-running stage version."[12]
Roger Ebert thought the story line of the musical was "quite simply boring", but still gave the screen version three stars out of four, explaining that Jewison "has made as good a film as can be made" from the material.[13] Gene Siskel awarded three-and-a-half stars out of four, writing that the musical numbers were "better staged and choreographed than in any recent Broadway film adaptation".[14] Vincent Canby of The New York Times thought the film version was inferior, explaining that by "literalizing" the show with real landscapes and houses, Jewison and Stein "have effectively overwhelmed not only Aleichem, but the best things about the stage production ... pushed beyond its limits, the music goes flat and renders banal moments that, on the stage, are immensely moving."[15] Charles Champlin of the Los Angeles Times wrote that the film "has been done not only with such artistry, but also with such evident love, devotion, integrity and high aspiration that watching it is a kind of duplex pleasure."[16] Gary Arnold of The Washington Post stated, "Jewison's Fiddler is a great film, by which I mean great in the sense that matters most — greatly moving, an extraordinarily powerful, emotional experience."[17] Pauline Kael of The New Yorker called it "an absolutely smashing movie; it is not especially sensitive, it is far from delicate, and it isn't even particularly imaginative, but it seems to me the most powerful movie musical ever made."[18]

Chiquet looks back on 13 years at one of fashion's most storied houses in her new memoir.
In honor of the release of her debut memoir, Beyond the Label: Women, Leadership, and Success on Our Own Terms, Maureen Chiquet, the former CEO of the house of Chanel, sits down with HarpersBAZAAR.com to discuss Karl, the effect of the digital revolution on the luxury market and how to raise a family while running a global fashion empire.
Harper's BAZAAR: The last Chanel Haute Couture show you presided over was hailed as among the best of the Fall 2016 season. Your resignation was announced just a day later. How do you hope your tenure will be remembered? What legacy do you hope to have left?
Maureen Chiquet: I was at Chanel for 13 years. Towards the middle and end of my tenure, I initiated a new leadership effort called "the active and conscious leadership journey." The idea was really to think about all the qualities we would need as leaders to face all the different issues happening in the 21st century. The digital revolution and globalization have completely disrupted the luxury industry. These qualities—things like deep listening, collaboration, flexibility, tapping into our emotions—seem to me to be the kinds of qualities that are intrinsic to women. I think that's the thing I'm most excited about: continuing to promote women in the workplace.
The second thing, and this is something I've been involved with my entire career, is creating a container for great creativity to happen, and stirring innovation. Whether it was at Gap or Chanel, that's been a defining part of who I am.
"You've got to get close to what you really value. When you strip away your role as a parent, as a mother, and as an executive, what really makes your heart sing? How can you make your mark?"
HB: How did those 21st-century realities you mentioned, i.e. the digital revolution and globalization, cause your role and perspective to shift over the course of the 13 years you spent at the helm of Chanel? Did the job become something other than what it was when you signed on in 2007?
MC: It's funny: when I started as CEO in 2007, it was pretty soon after Facebook and other social media came into the fore, and in a way that was really important. It was a shock to have all these bloggers who were commenting on [Chanel] and other brands. Consumers could tell you what they thought of your brand everyday. The luxury brands have traditionally been focused on being rare, having scarcity and complete control of their messages. They've been focused on a kind of exclusivity. everything available to everybody. So you can imagine social media poses a lot of questions to us in the industry: how do we maintain the basic premise of luxury while continuing to walk into the future?
I think that conflict has only gotten more extreme today now that there are more bloggers, more ways of sharing messages, videos; on the one hand it's an incredible opportunity because luxury houses have amazing tradition, history, heritage and artisanship that they can now share with so many more people. The difficulty, though, was in figuring out how to keep your product rare when you've got knock-offs and even what we call the "grey market"—authentic products sold in non-authorized places—when you can type in "Dior" or any other brand name and find so many places where you can buy that handbag aside from the official site. To me, that was kind of the arch of it. It's only gotten more difficult, and more exciting.
HB: How do you think being female has impacted—as both a barrier and a benefit—your success in the industry?
MC: In a way we are privileged because there are a lot of women in this industry and we serve a lot of female clients. I think being able to sit in the shoes of a woman and being able to manage products that are mostly sold to women, alongside a lot of female employees, is really helpful because you hold that empathy to the situation. You can understand where the customer is coming from. I think culturally we've been looking at the frame of leadership through mostly what some social researchers are calling "masculine" qualities. Harnessing those traditionally "female" qualities I mentioned earlier—which I think men possess but aren't asked as much to use—is really virtuous for both our clients and employees.
HB: In the past you've attributed much of your career strengths to a blend of what you call "research and instinct." Can you tell me more about this leadership philosophy?
MC: When I first started out in my career, I'd been a lit major in college so I didn't have a lot of choices. The traditional options were management consultant or investment banking, and I hadn't even taken an economics class so those were pretty much out. I didn't want to go into academia. For me, research and instinct were my unique tools that seemed to work best on a marketing and merchandizing path. It's kind of right-brain and left-brain.
HB: What was it like to be an American at the head of such a storied French fashion brand?
MC: It was an amazing experience; I really connected with Gabrielle Chanel's story, and the idea of this woman who was an iconoclast and basically took women out of corsets and long dresses and put them in menswear fabrics. It was a really subversive act that allowed women to be and to move in new ways. Because of my background both in deconstructionism and literature, and my bias towards wanting to subvert things from different frames and angles, I was very attracted to the ethos of Chanel.
When I first started at the company it was 2003, and I had been working in mass market for 15 years, so I had been selling more things to more people all the time. That was our goal [at Gap and Old Navy]: optimize sales. So it was really an adjustment for me to come into a brand where it was all about rarity and preciousness, and on top of that I was surrounded by a team in the beginning of ten men, all of whom had two decades more experience than I did in the luxury industry, and most of whom were about ten years my senior. I had to now learn how to un-learn everything I knew and see things from a new perspective.
"It's important to look for mentors all around you."
HB: What was it like to work with Karl Lagerfeld? What figure(s) have most influenced your path?
HB: How have you balanced your career with your personal life?
MC: It's not easy. There is no solution or perfect model you can follow. The best thing I can say is you've got to get close to what you really value. When you strip away your role as a parent, as a mother, and as an executive, what really makes your heart sing? How can you make your mark? I really thought about the things I'm really good at and how I could contribute to my kids' growth and development as human beings. Anton, my husband, stayed home and took care of the kids while I worked. For me, it was about dealing with two teenage kids who have all the academic and friend and love issues every kid has and actually being there as their emotional support, while Anton would be there to deal with the day-to-day things.
HB: What's next for you now?
MC: I'm doing a lot of speaking engagements for different organizations, and it's really exciting to be in touch with people about the book and about their perceptions of women and the world in general. I'm eager to write another book so we'll see how that goes; I haven't quite had the time to start yet but I'm excited to do it.


Jaitley underwent a kidney transplant at AIIMS in May due to which his portfolio was assigned temporarily on May 14 to Railways Minister Piyush Goyal as an interim arrangement.
NEW DELHI: Union minister Arun Jaitley has resumed charge of the ministries of finance and corporate affairs after a hiatus of over 100 days, during which he underwent a surgery for kidney ailment. Jaitley met key finance ministry officials, finance secretary Hasmukh Adhia, financial services secretary Rajeev Kumar, expenditure secretary A N Jha and corporate affairs secretary Injeti Srinivas, soon after resuming office on Thursday.

He had also held additional charge of ministry of defence as well as that of ministry of information and broadcasting. During his over three-monthlong break, Jaitley was working from home, which included meetings with officials on key issues.
He wrote on various issues of national importance, such as National Register for Citizens (NRC) in Assam, emergency of over four decades ago, no-confidence motion in Parliament, Rafale fighter jet deal, and the goods and services tax. He also participated in a couple of events, including banking conclave and the first anniversary of the launch of GST through video conferencing. He held at least one meeting with ministry officials through the same mode after the surgery.

A compilation and discussion of the changes contemplated, inspired and completed by the citizens of neighborhoods and/or cities around the world.
Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has"
"If you don't like the news .... go out and make some of your own !!"
Government is a slow and tedious process. While it often includes citizen and neighborhood involvement, non-governmental, private organizations have created movements and interesting groups which can create positive change in our cities and towns.
I am fascinated by the way groups are created and how they influence public decision making. This blog merely recognizes them and forwards the description of these groups from their own websites.
The city of Pontevedra in northwest Spain has become a leader in walker-friendly urban policy over the past 15 years. In light of its relative anonymity and population of 83,000, one might find it difficult to imagine the traffic congestion that prompted this transformation.
However, as the capital of its province, county and municipality, Pontevedra attracted enough automobile commuters each day to overwhelm its antiquated streets.
Instead of razing old buildings and constructing bigger roads, the city council began taking proactive measures to reduce traffic. They widened sidewalks, established a free bike-lending service, installed speed bumps and set a speed limit of 30 kilometers per hour throughout the city. They even banned motorized transport in sections of Pontevedra.
Walking zones now extend from the historic center to streets and squares in newer neighborhoods. Although the driving ban initially faced resistance, it is now broadly supported and has become an essential part of the city's identity as an attractive place to live.
To further improve walkability, Pontevedra's city council produced a map that visualizes the distances and travel times between key places on foot at an average speed of five kilometers per hour.
Known as Metrominuto, the map has color-coded lines that resemble those of a subway guide. The pink line from Peregrina Square shows that it takes about 14 minutes to walk from there to the train and bus stations. Free parking areas are marked to encourage visitors to leave their cars outside the city center.
According to the map, someone who parks in the free lot near the police station can get to Peregrina Square in less than eight minutes via Santiago Bridge. Metrominuto reminds residents and visitors that many automobile trips can be made in a more convenient, environmentally friendly and healthy way by walking.
The Metrominuto initiative recently won an award from Intermodes, the organizers of an international transport convention for the European Congress, who explained: "Metrominuto is an idea that can be easily transposed in cities that have 80,000 inhabitants (or less), of which there are more in Europe than there are very large conurbations." Pontevedra's urban restructuring program has also earned accolades from the Spanish Committee of Representatives of Persons with Disabilities and the Spanish Directorate General of Traffic.
Pontevedra's walker-oriented initiatives raise questions as to how they came into being and how they've influenced living conditions in the city. Researching these questions should tell us whether Intermodes' recommendation is warranted, offering insights into the potential for similar initiatives in other cities around the world.

How A Novel-in-Verse Amps Up Emotional Insight
By Lia Posted in - Guest Post on August 4th, 2011 1 Comments
A wonderful series of posts donated by other Vermont College of Fine Arts MFA graduates. This week's is from Sherry Shahan:
My most recent novel, PURPLE DAZE (Running Press Teens), is a novel-in-verse which I conceived while attending MFA Writing for Children and Young Adults program at Vermont College of Fine Arts.
Is the prevalence of young-adult novels-in-verse in the last decade merely a trend?
Or can the novel-in-verse do something traditional prose novels can't? Is it, in fact, peculiarly suited to the turbulent, but often secret, inner lives of teenagers?
Perhaps publishers, editors and readers have accepted this form because it's an appropriate platform to showcase the inner drama of adolescence. Indeed, as I was reading scores of novels-in-verse, it became clear to me that poetry can bring readers closer to the consciousness of teens—perhaps even closer than YA novels penned in traditional narrative prose.
When should a writer consider this form?
Stories that are better told from more one than one character's point of view. Mel Glenn's verse novel Who Killed Mr. Chippendale? has more than fifty viewpoint characters. Even if Glenn had used an omniscient viewpoint – in other words, bouncing in an out of others' minds — it would be confusing to the reader. However, not all verse novels have more than one viewpoint character.
Stories that are predominantly character driven, as opposed to action-driven. Verse novels tend to deal with highly charged emotional issues. Some issues include, incest (Furniture by Thalia Chaltas), mental illness (Stop Pretending What Happened When My Big Sister Went Crazy by Sonya Sones), and teen pregnancy (First Part Last by Angela Johnson). In each of these novels, what the characters are thinking and feeling is more important than what they are doing.
Stories with poetry as a subplot or theme. In Locomotion Jacqueline Woodson's main character Lonnie is exploring poetic forms to help him deal with the untimely death of his parents. In Ron Koertge's Shakspeare Bats Clean Up the main character is bedridden. He's a bored kid who reads his dad's poetry books and then begins writing his own poems.
Stories that are best told in short, energetic bursts – instead of traditional margin-to-margin prose. For example, scenes that capture one moment whether it be an emotion or an idea.
Try this exercise: Take a paragraph from any novel. Rewrite it in verse. Concentrate on metaphor, assonance, imagery and cadence. Shouldn't all good writing contain these elements? Sure. But I find it easier to focus on 'voice sounds' and 'patterns of expression' when my writing looks like poetry.
Sherry Shahan has 30 children's books to her credit, fiction and nonfiction. YA novel PURPLE DAZE is set in 1965 Los Angeles where six high school students navigate war, riots, love, rock 'n' roll, school, and friendship. She teaches a writing course for UCLA Extension. Feel free to contact Sherry if you have any questions about novels-in-verse or the VCFA MFA writing program.

Thank you to all the contributors for the informative and insightful posts you've shared with us this past week!
(1) awesome folk have had something to say...

U.S. Rep. Tom Rooney, R-Tequesta, addressed some of the most talked-about issues in the country at a town hall meeting hosted by the Republican Club of the Northern Palm Beaches on Monday in Palm Beach Gardens.
Rooney's primary topic — one he and other congressmen across party lines have elevated to a top priority — is the War Powers Act. Rooney introduced a resolution, and testified before Congress this month, stating that President Obama is in violation of the War Powers Resolution. The resolution sets a requirement for the withdrawal of U.S. forces from Libya unless Congress authorizes military action.
The constitutionality of the issue is a subject familiar to Rooney, who was asked to teach constitutional and criminal law at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point in 2002.
The congressman shared insight and anecdotal examples of the new landscape on Capitol Hill. He said he is aware of the dynamic that exists with the current leadership and the incoming freshmen, adding that "freshmen, like Allen West and many others like him around the country, have changed the dialogue." According to Rooney, freshmen are telling leadership the way they see it and that it is clearly time for a new generation.
Rooney's past service in the military — spanning more than four years in the U.S.Army JAG corps — and his continuing service on the House Armed Services Committee give him an upper hand in understanding issues concerning U.S. military interests.
As for the troops withdrawing from Iraq and Afghanistan, Rooney says the countries will soon be staffed primarily with Special Forces, CIA and other intelligence officers, not regular troops.
On the subjects of balancing the budget, the Ryan proposal and taking on major hot-button issues like Medicaid, Rooney reaffirmed his commitment to having the courage it takes to tackle such difficult challenges.

Santa Fe High School shooting
Lawyer of teen suspect in Santa Fe HS shooting: We need to learn from tragedy
By Shelley Childers
Attorney of Santa Fe massacre suspect: We need to learn from this
SANTA FE, Texas (KTRK) -- The trial for accused Santa Fe High School shooter, Dimitrios Pagourtzis, is expected to happen in 2019, according to his defense attorney, Nick Poehl.
In the meantime, Pagourtzis remains in solitary confinement at the Galveston County Jail, where he is undergoing evaluations.
"There's things he seems to understand. There's things that he doesn't, and so I'm waiting for the doctor's report on that," said Poehl.
A behavioral psychologist hired by the defense is now evaluating the accused school shooter.
"There is testing that goes to cognitive, behavioral and mental health issues," Poehl mentions.
Apart from investigating his social media accounts and internet browsing history, his attorney says they are now examining the teen's physiology.
"Behavior can be impacted by either strictly psychological or mental components, and sometimes, there's a physiological aspect, as well. We're looking at both avenues."
The defense attorney hired by the parents of Pagourtzis is not refuting his client opened fire inside Santa Fe High School, but he says his work now is to determine why.
"It all boils down to how did this happen? How does it keep happening?"
The shooting happened during the first class period on May 18.
The 10 people killed included eight students and two substitute teachers.
Poehl says the effort to evaluate Pagourtzis is not to defend or excuse the horror that took place, but to learn from it.
"I think the ultimate shame in this case would be if we didn't use this case and look at other similar cases to try to figure out what's going on, so that we can try to put a stop to this at some point."
The psychologist is also evaluating if the teen will be able to stand trial.
Prosecutors will also be using their own expert psychologist to evaluate Pagourtzis sometime in the new year.

Missed opportunity
The next boss of the mining giant will have a tough job boosting the its fortunes
by S.W.
ON HER appointment in 2007 it might have seemed that Cynthia Carroll marked a change of direction for Anglo American. She was everything the London-based mining giant's previous bosses were not. The firm had hitherto been run by South African men. She was American, and that rare sight at the head of a huge global company: a woman. But the firm's direction during here tenure was down, despite the unprecedented boom for mining companies that feed China's vast needs for resources. On 26th October Mrs Carroll announced that she is stepping down as Anglo's chief executive.
Anglo is often compared to Rio Tinto and BHP Billiton, two other giant mining companies. They also got new bosses at around the same time as Mrs Carroll took over at Anglo. But whereas Anglo's share price has since fallen by 7%, Rio's has risen by 40% and BHP's even doubled. Anglo has not performed as terribly as the numbers suggest, but recent events have strengthened the opinion among some shareholders that the firm's problems have not been fixed.
One factor is Anglo exposure to South Africa. Recent violent strikes by workers at its platinum mines in the country have served to remind investors just how dependent Anglo is on the region: nearly half its businesses are located there. Fears that the country might nationalise its mining industry are far-fetched, but the possibility has weighed on Anglo's share price. Indeed, Mrs Carroll has done much to improve relations with the country's leaders.
Anglo has also stumbled in efforts to diversify and consolidate its businesses. Minas Rio, a Brazilian iron ore business that Anglo bought at the top of the commodity cycle, has suffered from multiple setbacks. Burdensome Brazilian bureaucracy and mounting costs have conspired to delay Minas's mining projects and Anglo's ability to take advantage of sky-high iron ore prices before a slowing Chinese economy sent them tumbling. The pricey acquisition of 40% of the De Beers diamond business, a damaging dispute with Codelco, Chile's state-owned mining company, and a failure to divest its 80% stake in the Amplats platinum business have also hurt Mrs Carroll's reputation.
Rumours had long swirled that Mrs Carroll time at the top of Anglo was coming to an end. Some put that down to sniping at an outsider and a woman to boot. There may be some truth in that. But the main reason was Anglo's sliding ranking among mining's behemoths. Xstrata, a mining firm that grew rapidly after its founding just a decade ago, even cheekily suggested a nil-premium merger with Anglo in 2009. Plenty of analysts now think that this would not have been a bad idea.
Anglo simply seems to have failed to take advantage of a commodities boom the like of which the world has never seen before. As China's economy cools and commodity prices fall from extraordinary peaks, Anglo's next boss will have a tough job boosting the firm's fortunes.

BJJ promotes the concept that a smaller, weaker person can successfully defend against a bigger, stronger assailant by using proper technique, leverage and most notably, taking the fight to the ground, and then applying joint-locks and choke-holds to defeat the opponent. It is a physically demanding martial art, and new practitioners typically lose weight and gain muscle while improving coordination and flexibility. Practicing BJJ is also a great way to develop self-confidence and make friends with people from every background. Sparring (also called "rolling") and live drilling play a major role in training, and a premium is placed on performance, especially in competition, to progress through the belt system from white, blue and purple, to brown and eventually black belt. Though competing is not a necessity in order to progress.
At Bangkok Fight Lab our BJJ classes are an hour long and involve a warm up, techniques, drills and positional sparring. Every class is then followed by an optional open mat hour of sparring (rolling) where the techniques learned in class can be applied in a more live situation. For BJJ in Bangkok, Bangkok Fight Lab is the place to go!
We encourage children in Bangkok from the age of 6 to join our Juniors BJJ program. Classes are held 3 times a week and there is a growing number of competitions and tournaments held in Bangkok for all ages, should they be open to competing. Regardless of competition, they will learn not only the physical aspects of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu but also discipline, respect for others and themselves, assertiveness, confidence and many other positive attributes to help with their development.

Can the future be brighter?
Rob Lamond, Founder, Policy Futures, 8 June, 2018
This week's BBC/YouGov English Question poll again highlighted the volatility in English identity politics and the fallout from the EU Referendum, with coverage focusing on the sense of belonging and the characteristics associated with Englishness. One of the key points from the results was that only 17 per cent of respondents felt England's best years are still in the future. In areas as defined by the survey methodology as "ex-industrial", this figure was as low as 13 per cent.
Whilst general negativity for the future was common across all areas, these results again indicate the dislocation of the so called left behind; the post-industrial towns and cities, coastal areas, and geographically and politically remote parts of the country. Ever since the Brexit vote there has been a significant focus on these places from the media, academics and politicians looking to understand what influenced the Leave result and the ongoing tumult.
The current environment seems to be more than the routine appeal of nostalgia for a bygone age, or the latest manifestation of declinism. It is the disorientation-termed "future shock" by Alvin Toffler in his book of that name and memorably revisited by Mariana Gorbis in 2016. As Gorbis puts it, if "large and growing swathes of the population feel like they are powerless victims of the future…If your job has disappeared and your town's economy has been decimated, you feel like a victim of the future someone else is creating". The crash of 2008, years of austerity, questions over automation and the future of work, and the crisis of trust in politicians, the media, and the so-called "elites" all coalesce into this feeling of victimisation.
So how do we enable the communities, towns, cities and regions of England to flourish in the evolving Brexit reality? Some ideas can perhaps be drawn from Bruce Katz and Jeremy Nowak's recent book The New Localism, which assesses the growing trend of US cities as authors of their own futures. Places such as Pittsburgh, Cleveland and Indianapolis – beyond the fashionable and thriving east and west coasts – are no longer prepared to accept central diktat and neglect. They have themselves taken long-term strategic approaches to revitalisation. From "rustbelt to brainbelt", the case studies Katz and Nowak propose illustrate the value of reimagining a place's existing resources and heritage through a focus on high skill and high productivity industries. And whilst the specific industries, governance models and financing will differ from place to place, the principles of this New Localism are transferable and applicable. Key amongst these principles are subsidiarity, collaboration throughout public and private bodies, problem solving, maximising heritage and assets, a focus on long-term prosperity and inclusivity, and crucially both representative and participatory democracy.
There are, of course, similar examples of such approaches in the UK, and the continuing evolution of the existing Combined Authorities offer hope of a similar renaissance in city region policy. But there is a danger that the disparate nature of English devolution continues the idea of an unbridgeable gulf between thriving modern cities and the rest, reinforcing the perceptions in the BBC survey and the feelings of being "a victim of the future someone else is creating".
Gorbis calls the antidote to this "urgent optimism", an integral part of "envisioning and making the future… a massively public endeavour". This is essential in redesigning modern local government. It may seem perverse to be optimistic at a time when our divorce from Europe seems increasingly ill-fated, and the mandate and abilities of our central government appear so weakened. And yet this distraction and weakness may provide the opportunity for local government to thrive and seize its moment. This means the genuine local government enjoyed by many other nations, with fiscal devolution and political freedoms to raise or reduce local taxes, borrow to invest in housing and infrastructure, and fulfil the potential of our local areas. As has been set out recently on this blog, the forthcoming Spending Review offers an opportunity to reform the ways in which public services are funded. But the focus must be on the impact on places, with organisations coming together with a collective voice.
To truly maximise this opportunity there will need to be a genuine and thorough reappraisal of place-based strategies, to grasp and maximise the strengths and uniqueness of each locality. This will need to go beyond the historic boilerplate of council Corporate Plan priorities, with their well-intentioned but often vapid variations on prosperity, wellbeing and communities. In their place, bespoke and agile strategies will require a more thorough understanding and reflection of local aspirations, assets, heritage and potential for the future.
This entails a fundamental reassessment of the relationship between councils and citizens, and transforming the rules of engagement in ways such as those being pursued in Redbridge. This involves the collective responsibility of a broader coalition of communities, commercial, public and civic bodies to create solutions. It is based on a commitment to reimagining the council's role of local leadership, offering a route to a genuine process where everyone can become actively engaged in making those futures. It will not be easy, or happen overnight, but with a sense of urgent optimism the future may be brighter than many people currently believe.

Q: How do I force intergrated graphics on a Macbook Pro 2011 while using internet recovery? I've got a Macbook Pro 2011 with a failed discrete graphics card. I've been able to install ubuntu on it with some modifications through it's GRUB interface to run on integrated graphics. I followed this guide:
I want to get Mac OS working on this macbook again but I've been told the only way to do that now is through internet recovery during bootup. Unfortunately, when the internet recovery loading bar finishes loading, the screen goes black and doesn't do anything. I think the macbook tries to use the discrete GPU and it fails.
Is there some way to force the mac to use it's integrated GPU like in the link I posted but DURING internet recovery?

Age of Wordsworth (1798-1832)

"It is an admirable little work all the way through and one which the ripest students of the period may read with interest and profit."—The Guardian.
"A full index and a chronological table add value to the book, which is both handy and accurate as a text-book and readable as a contribution to the literature of criticism. Mr. Herford has thrown light on this period by considering mainly its relation to 'the far-reaching and many-sided revival of imaginative power commonly known as Romanticism,' and his work is not only informing but suggestive."—Manchester Guardian.
"It is an eminently stimulating and penetrative piece of work, and its style throughout is a model of vigorous and incisive English."—Educational Review.
"The introductory essay on Romanticism in our literature is an admirable piece of work, full of suggestive thought, but Professor Herford is at his best—and a very fine best it is—in his brief summaries of the lives and works of individual writers. His Cobbett, his Lamb, and others that might be instanced, are veritable gems of biographical and critical compression presented with true literary finish. . . . For the student Professor Herford has provided a rich and suggestive collection of facts ; but he has also done something more, for he has presented them in so able a manner and with such literary flavour as to make his history thoroughly readable."—Literary World.
"The growth of the new impulse of Romanticism, and the manner in which it asserted itself in imaginative literature at the dawn of the present century, is admirably traced in a book which is remarkable for freshness and distinction of style, philosophic grasp of first principles, and critical insight. . . . When we add that the book is also conspicuous for delicacy of literary appreciation and ripe judgment, both of men and movements, we have said enough to show that we consider its claims are unusual."—Speaker.
"One of the soundest and most suggestive manuals of a memorable period of our literature."—Glasgow Herald.
"The desiderated text-book of the period 1708 to 1830 A.D. is no longer to seek. More than that, it has been written by the one Englishman most competent to deal with it. Whatever Professor Herford does he does well ; but he has given us nothing at once so good and so helpful as his book."—University Correspondent.
""Quite worthy of high literary reputation of its accomplished author."—Daily News.
"The order and unity of treatment observable throughout these pages is in a great measure due to the basis whereon the writer has wrought, namely, Romanticism, which he has treated in its various phases and from its beginning, in so many distinct spheres of literature, both of prose and verse. He has enriched his work with much that is valuable in the ripest literary judgments of Continental critics, and he has enlarged the limits of criticism by original observations of his own, by comparisons, and by contrasts, as remarkable for their novelty as for the justice of their appraisements."""—Morning Post.

Consuming Fire Global Ministries (CFGM) is an Apostolic and Prophetic ministry flowing in the power and fire of the Holy Spirit. A church called to teach the strategies and wisdom of God; to combat the power of darkness with knowledge and insight from God. CFGM is a church and ministries called to increase an individual's intercession, worship and intimacy with the Lord. We are called to build up God's end-time army to fulfill the great commission.

The mission of Pagá Global Prayer Connections is to gather mature prophetic intercessors to collectively intercede on behalf of others and pray strategically in various territorial regions to change the spiritual atmosphere on our global. This will be accomplished by pulling down strongholds and binding up powers, principalities, thrones and spiritual wickedness in high places. Additionally we will connect with other established prayer ministries and teams throughout the earth, in order to receive crisis prayer information immediately and forward the prayer news to others strategic watchmen and intercessors as necessary. We will teach on prayer and intercession through such events as Prayer Breakfasts, seminars conferences, and prophetic summits. We currently have a live weekly prayer line called: "The Right Now Prayer line" where prayers are being answered instantly and we will love to have you join us. Another one of our mission is to motivate, inspire and organizes individuals and groups to consistently pray for others as well as have an intimate relationship with Jesus Christ themselves.


Have you noticed any issues in the game with the new update? Please let us know here.
If possible, please make sure to attach WG Check tool report to your reports. These reports would help our development team to identify the issue and resolve it in a timely manner.
Game does not completely load after update 0.7.0 installed.
ARP Takao's Model hasn't been fixed. Imperial Chrysanthemum still is on there. It was not part of the original model and was not there until a recent update. (Image attached marks the error with a red ring) You can see the original model without the error on the game wiki Image Here and even your promotional art for the collaboration [Link] shows that Takao isn't supposed to have it.
Arpeggio / High School Fleet Voices even with the work around do NOT work with National Voiceover Modification set. This again used to work but broke a few updates ago and no updates have been given on the progress of a fix outside giving the aforementioned workaround.
With the second phase of the High School Fleet Collaboration I'd think you'd have wanted to at least fix their voice set considering that's going to get a lot of buzz to buy their ships and have people excited for the event.
Looks like the individual WoWS account management page on wargaming.net is broken. I usually start there and go to news forum etc. Nice picture of a BB in drydock though "Our warship is undergoing repairs".
When you come back from battle the chat windows snap down to the lower left and won't stay where you have put them.
looks like the post-match mission results are not updating properly. They show the pre-match status, not the updated post-match values. Post match shows 8/10 fires, but mission display shows all 10 fires completed.
Was that after the first battle of the day? It could count progress from previous battles.
nope, mid-day, first segments of some of them were already done. Before the update, the post match results were just that, the post-match results. Now they are not(they don't show the progress from this match).
Game center updated WoWs that when it went to update it's self it crashed and would not install, I have tried to download game center and it tells me that I do not have permission or disc space, both are wrong. And seeing that you can not play any unless you have the Game Center I can not play. I have re-booted 2X downloaded the GC and it will not install. I ran the public test without any issues before today.
FYI, There is no "Check tool" like in the post is cut off and a search comes up with nothing.
The progress on the three patches has disappeared and now shows no progress on two of them and some progress on another. This only happened after the "old" mission/challenges reappeared for the humpteenth time.
I had already finished and received some off the 1st stage of the first two shown below.
The new update is great. I crashed more today than I did for the entire previous update. Good job devs. Keep it up and you might even succeed in making this game as bad as World of Tanks.
Match results page locks up showing nothing just after red team capped base.
Will uninstall WoWS mods and try again.
Sorry to hear that. This thread is more for collecting bugs and technical issues. If you'd provide us your WGCheck tool report that would be perfect. There can be plenty of reasons that may cause crashing and if there's anything that can be fixed on the development side I'll make sure that they'd get that information.
Thanks for the report. Let us know if you have any issues with no mods. Quick tip, you can check your client without removing mods. You just need to start the game client in safe mode. You might find instructions on how to do it here: https://eu.wargaming.net/support/kb/articles/750 Sorry it's for tanks but the idea is the same.
Thank you for your report. Coming from the previous similar cases, that might be just a visual error. I'll try to keep an eye and report to devs if there any other cases.
Have you tried using Standart voiceover set? I just test it in the game and once you're using Arpeggio or HSF Captains, you get proper voiceover. I've tested this for Takao so far so you can test it for your self.
As for the Imperial Chrysanthemum on Takao, I'll make it to my report and make sure that developers notice this issue.
Thank you all for reports. Keep them flowing. I'll make sure that all of them being communicated to the development team.
The fix mentioned gets Standard Voiceover to work for any HSF/Arpeggio captain, But I was running National Voiceover since before the ARP Captains and they had their voices working until a the update that resulted in having to make the workaround exist.
I like the flavor of running National Voiceovers but the fact that it breaks the ARP/HSF captains and makes me have to keep going back to the menu and change back to Standard before any match I use a HSF/ARP ship in and that's just really annoying.
might not be a bug but Musashi has 50mm of armor on her smoke stack (Yamato has 16mm as per the rest of the stuperstructure) seems dumb?


Arthur Conan Doyle's famous detective, Sherlock Holmes, in The Adventure of Black Peter, observed the premises of "Allardyce's" butcher shop.
Robert Louis Stevenson, in David Balfour (the sequel to Kidnapped) (Chapter 1), mentions a "Mrs. Drummond-Ogilvy of Allardice." In his Treasure Island (Chapter 31), the dead pirate found as the party was searching for buried treasure was named "Allardice."
In Thomas Berger's Little Big Man, Chapter 22, the con man is named "Allardyce T. Meriweather." In the movie, starring Dustin Hoffman, this role was played by the fine actor Martin Balsam.

Working in sales might sometimes seem like you have to be more lucky than good, but reality is that there are key factors that can lead to successful salespeople.
Success begins in one place and that is working hard and putting in effort. This is not a revolutionary point to make, but definitely one of the boxes to check when trying to identify what needs or can be done in order to be successful.
One way to make sure that your work ethic is where it needs to be is to track your sales activity and strive to reach activity targets. Not only should you monitor and put in the hours per day, but also strive to get in the needed amount of cold calls and scheduled appointments with target prospects.
One way to ensure that you are getting in the right amount of activity is to establish some sort of routine. This can not only involve starting and finishing your day around the same time during the week, but also compartmentalizing your schedule so that you separate different responsibilities and have scheduled time throughout the week to work on them.
One key that separates successful salespeople from the rest is the ability to learn. This is because there is such a tremendous amount of knowledge and information that you must grasp to be able to master your position. You will likely need to learn about your products, your company, sales processes, sales methodologies, your prospects, the industries that you work in and sell into, your competition, etc.
With learning being critical for successful salespeople, there should always be a place for sales training. Not only should sales training be embraced when starting a new role or position, but it should be used as an ongoing piece of your continued development.
If the company you work for does not provide enough sales training, there are plenty of options available for investing and developing in yourself. There are plenty of sales books out there that have great sales knowledge that you can extract and there are many different web-based sales training options available.
A great complement to sales training can often be sales coaching. This differs from sales training in that it is less about transferring knowledge and information and more focused on identifying challenges and opportunities, making plans for growth, and tracking progress.
If you do not have access to a real sales coach, there are other options available like a manager or senior salesperson at the company that you work for. You could go to these individuals as a sounding board on a recurring basis to help you get to the next level.
One of the most important keys to successful salespeople is being organized. Being a salesperson can be very hectic and fast paced and there is also a tremendous amount of information that needs to be managed.
By being more organized, a salesperson will be much better positioned to be both efficient and effective and this can clearly have a positive impact on sales results. Things to focus on are management of your calendar, management of customer information, and effective management of your sales pipeline.
Launch Pad Solutions provides sales coaching helping to create successful salespeople.
