The plaintiff, Mark Zimmerman, 44, lived in a three-story building. The building came with a deck attached to an exterior stairwell. As Zimmerman was leaving for work, he bent over to pick something up while holding on to the deck railing. The railing collapsed. Zimmerman fell three stories to the ground, fracturing his right ankle. He also suffered lumbar fractures at L2 and L4.
Zimmerman underwent two ankle surgeries and a spinal fusion surgery. His medical bills totaled more than $400,000. Before the date of this incident, Zimmerman worked as a school janitor. He has not returned to work since.
In a lawsuit filed in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Ill., Zimmerman sued the owner of the building and its management company. He alleged premises liability because of the defective railing, saying it was unsafe and caused his injuries.
The defendants maintained that the injuries Zimmerman suffered were from a pre-existing medical condition. Before trial, the parties settled for about $905,000.
Mr. Zimmerman was represented by Charles L. Cannon, III.
Zimmerman v. Heywood, No. 2010 L 012100 (Cook County, Illinois).

JVA Honorees Tom Isaacs: A grand vision VAN ANDEL INSTITUTE | 25 YEARS DR. PATRIK BRUNDIN AT GRAND CHALLENGES IN PARKINSON'S DISEASE, 2012 2012 VAI establishes the Grand Challenges in Parkinson's Disease symposium When Dr. Patrik Brundin arrived at VAI in January 2012 to launch our Parkinson's research program, one of his first acts was to establish Grand Challenges in Parkinson's Disease, a symposium that brings together Parkinson's experts to explore the latest research. The inaugural event took place that fall and included the presentation of the first Jay Van Andel Award for Outstanding Achievement in Parkinson's Disease Research. This award is given annually to a scientist or scientists who have made outstanding contributions to Parkinson's disease research and who have positively impacted human health. It honors the memory of VAI Founder Jay Van Andel, who battled Parkinson's for a decade before his death in 2004. Today, Grand Challenges in Parkinson's Disease has grown into a multi-faceted event that routinely attracts hundreds of attendees from around the world. It has covered a host of critical issues in Parkinson's research, including genetic factors, inflammation, clinical trials, disease-modifying therapies and the role of non-motor symptoms. In 2014, VAI and Cure Parkinson's (formerly The Cure Parkinson's Trust) added a critical new dimension to the event with the establishment of Rallying to the Challenge, a parallel meeting for people with Parkinson's. Designed as a way to amplify the voices of the Parkinson's community, Rallying to the Challenge has become a global touchpoint for people with Parkinson's, advocates and care partners to connect, collaborate and provide valuable insights to scientists. DAVID VAN ANDEL, DR. ANDREW SINGLETON & DR.

This fervent belief manifested into the Rallying to the Challenge meeting, which annually brings together scientists and people with Parkinson's from around the world. Isaacs passed away in 2017. In his memory, Cure Parkinson's and VAI established the Tom Isaacs Award, which recognizes an individual who includes people with Parkinson's in a participatory way in their work.

At The Lohman Law Offices, PSC, we represent individuals injured due to negligence. While an insurance company will work to minimize their exposure and minimize your payout, our team has your best interests in mind. A personal injury lawyer can build a compelling case and maximize your settlement or award.
We are a personal injury law firm. That's what we do. Our firm represents individuals who have been injured due to the negligence of other people, whether it involves an auto accident, a slip and fall, a medical malpractice claim. And whether it involves a work injury, that does not have to be the negligence of someone else, as long as the injury took place on the work site, then the individual has a valid workers' compensation claim. It's very important in a personal injury case to have a lawyer on your side from the very beginning. Memories fade. Evidence disappears. The person who watched a car run a red light may forget what the color of the car was, or where the other cars were at the time that the car ran the red light, things like that. And so, because of that, it's important to contact an attorney immediately after an auto accident occurs, or after a slip and fall happens. In thinking about hiring an attorney, think about what's going on, on the other side of your case. They have lawyers at that insurance company working on their side. They have lawyers telling them what they need to do, what the insurance carriers need to do to minimize their exposure and to minimize what they are going to pay you at the end of your case. It only makes sense that you should have a lawyer on your side, who can work for you to determine how you're going to maximize your settlement at the end of the case. Or if the case can't settle, how you're going to maximize what you get in front of the jury. In other words, have a lawyer early on, who's going to figure out from the very beginning how best to get you justice for the injury that you suffered.

Fairytale Castles of Germany
Explore the Famous Castles of German Royalty
Many visitors traveling to Germany have at least one or two historic castles they'd like to experience up close. With so many German Schlosses throughout the country, it can seem difficult to decide where to start. Read on to learn about the most famous, awe-inspiring castles of Germany and where you can find them.
Hohenschwangau Castle
Part of the appeal of this Schloss is its location. Sitting high above a hilltop outside the town of Fussen and in the village of Hohenschwangau, this castle was home to its founder, Maximillian II, for many years. With rolling hills, trees a-plenty, and mountainous overlooks surrounding the castle, the site was used by the crown prince as his summer home and hunting lodge.
Anyone planning to visit Hohenschwangau should set aside enough time to visit all the rooms within the castle including the big ballroom, called "Heroes Hall"; the oriental room, which was designed with Moorish, Grecian, and Turkish style influences; the Hohenstaufen Zimmer, the king's dressing room; The Berchta room, Queen Mary's writing room; and the Tasso room, the king's bedroom.
Lichtenstein Castle
Although this German Schloss is not nearly as old as some of Germany's other castles, this neo-gothic castle, located in the Swabian Alps, makes the list. First built in the 19th century, Lichtenstein Castle stands in the place of another castle that was first built in the 12th century but eventually became irreparable. Today, visitors of Lichtenstein Castle can walk the grounds and marvel at the vast collection of medieval weaponry throughout the castle.
Schwerin Castle
Reported to have first been erected in the 10th century, Schwerin Castle is a stately structure with multiple turrets and towers showcasing Germany's extraordinary architectural ingenuity. Situated on an island in Lake Schwerin, this castle has served many purposes throughout the centuries. In its early years, Schwerin Castle is where the dukes of Mecklenburg resided. By the 20th century, it became a college; now, it is a museum open to the public. For any thrill-seeking travelers with a penchant for the paranormal, keep your eyes peeled for Petermännchen, the 17th-century ghost that is said to be wandering around the castle.
Hohenzollern Castle
Possibly one of the most regal castles in the country with impeccable views, Hohenzollern Castle, situated atop Mount Hohenzollern, was first constructed in the 11th century. Many of the remains of the original castle were ruined throughout the century; the current structure was built in the 19th century by King Frederick William IV of Prussia. For many centuries, Hohenzollern Castle was home to the royal Hohenzollern family. Although the castle is privately owned, it has been converted into a museum that houses valuable remnants of history, including the crown worn by Prussian kings. Vsitors can find the castle by traveling 30 miles outside of Stuttgart.
Neuschwanstein is arguably one of Germany's most visited castles and certainly one of the most photographed. Like Hohenschwangau Castle, this Schloss is located outside Fussen in the Bavarian Alps. And unlike many castles in Germany, Neuschwanstein was not used for defense; rather, it was a place of luxury for King Ludwig II of Bavaria. So enchanting and fairy-tale-like is this castle that it inspired Walt Disney during the creation of the animated classic Sleeping Beauty. Today, visitors can explore the many floors throughout the castle and swoon over the beauty of each painting and chandelier along the way.

Increasingly, wearable technology looks more like the province of the enterprise than it does the consumer. Sure, there are exceptions, but the enterprise is flooding into wearables and, in turn, causing many new developments with the enterprise in mind. APX Labs is one such producer of these new developments, recently releasing Skylight R5 enterprise software system for smartwatches.
Skylight R5 represents several new developments in one handy package. Reports suggest that it not only offers new options in voice control systems, but also a claims-based Active Directory authentication system. There are also new photo capture capabilities that work in high-resolution, and a new work management system known as Workstreams. With Skylight R5, all these tools are brought to Android Wear devices, and soon, for Apple Watch as well.
The voice control systems are said to be particularly useful for those using smartwatches or even smart glasses, and there are even some signs to suggest that Skylight R5 might make a jump to other tools, as it's described as offering "...a common user experience and a single, manageable back-end across their entire mobile operations". The use of Workstreams, meanwhile, lets companies focus on workflow generation, which can help keep an office better organized and thus less likely to waste time and money trying to overcome confusion about who should be doing what when.
Those interested in hearing more out of APX Labs will want to take note of the Wearable Tech Expo, set to hit the Jacob Javits Center in New York City July 13-15. APX Labs' vice president Ed English will be delivering a talk on Monday, July 13 from 4:15 to 4:55 pm entitled "AR & VR in the Enterprise: Changing the Business Process." The talk will cover how augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) are making inroads with businesses, offering new value in training, field work, and a host of other fronts.
Indeed, AR and VR both have valuable applications, and especially so when incorporated into wearable devices. Imagine field service techs going out into the field with smart glasses that can show how to take apart and rebuild a unit in real time, explaining how to fix it, reconstruct it, etc. But it's not just repairs that can help; imagine sales reps who can see a client's face and immediately reference information about that client right from a smartglasses interface. Imagine physicians who can identify problems based on visual sightings. These are just the start of what wearables coupled with VR and AR can do, and the Wearable Tech Expo will provide plenty more insight into this rapidly changing field.
While there will likely be at least some consumer demand for wearables, the enterprise has certainly taken to this new platform in a big way. With so many options—like APX Labs' Skylight R5—on hand, there likely won't be any shortage of interested users, either.

А́ксель Ю́ленкрук ; , ймовірно, 2 серпня 1664, Або —  17 вересня 1730, Свенсторп, повіт Одарсльофс, область Мальме) — шведський барон, генерал-лейтенант, чиновник.

Батько — окружний суддя Андерс Крук, після прийняття дворянства Юленкрук, мати — Марія Мумс-Юленкрук.

Вступив на службу в Лейб-гвардію 1687 р., а також став прапорщиком 1688 року, лейтенантом 1693 року і капітаном 1696 року. У ті часи він пройшов свою підготовку, несучи службу у французьких збройних силах. Велика Північна війна дала гарні можливості для швидшого підвищення по службі. Потім Юленкрука було поранено як під Нарвою, так і під Ригою, він ніс службу як генерал-квартирмейстер-лейтенант в укріпленнях у Курляндії в 1701 р. і в тому самому році його призначили майором Лейб-гвардії. Він очолював авангард шведської армії під час походу на Варшаву та вів батальйон у битві при Клішові в 1702 р. Під час війни в Польщі він обійняв посаду начальника польового штабу укріплень у 1703 р., а також став генерал-квартирмейстером у 1706 р. у званні підполковника та в наступному році генерал-квартирмейстером-полковником. На цій посаді Юленкрук мав дбати за розквартирування війська та його боєздатність і розвідувати шляхи просування армії тощо; у російському поході ці обов'язки стали вкрай важкі та відповідальні. Вже перебуваючи в Саксонії, Юленкрук розробив за наказом короля карти Саксонії та Польщі. Більшість з них подібно до тих, що він склав пізніше, особливо Полтавської битви, не має ні найменшої історичної цінності. Після поразки Юленкрук супроводжував короля Карла до Бендер, звідки він у жовтні 1709 р. направляється до польського кордону з загоном шведів і козаків, щоб спробувати зв'язатися з генералом Крассау з огляду на підготовку подорожі короля на батьківщину. Проте його обсідає набагато численніший російський корпус і він змушений здатися (1709). Юленкрука відвезли до Москви і там тимчасово тримали в такій суворій в'язниці, що йому навесні 1712 р., згідно з донесеннями Піпера, «забило памороки». У полоні він записав 1711 р. свої славнозвісні розповіді про похід на Росію і Полтавську битву (востаннє видану Н. Шьобергом у 1913 р; з рецензією А. Стілле в Історичному журналі того самого року). Здається, Юленкрук там хотів, щоб вважали, що він 1707 р. намагався схилити короля до плану, який не передбачав походу в глибину Росії, а замість того базувався на обороні прибалтійських провінцій і завоюванні міста Псков, через яке цар здійснював маневри з Санкт-Петербурга. Про цінність цих оповідань точаться дискусії серед дослідників Карла XII, декотрі з яких вважають, що вони мають занадто особистий та апологетичний характер.

Юленкрук визволився тільки після миру та прибув до Швеції 1722 р. Він став генерал-лейтенантом у тому самому році, губернатором області Ґетеборґ і комендантом розташованих там фортець у 1723 р., а також бароном у 1727 р. Генерал одружився 1723 р. з Марією Геґардт, дочкою радці і купця з Мальме Петера Геґардта. Це був її третій шлюб, з нею Аксель мав дочку та сина.

Ставши вдовою, Марія здобула 1743 р. майорат на родове помістя Свенсторпа.

У 1932 році у м. Ґетеборґ на честь Акселя Юленкрука було названо вулицю. Це вулиця Юленкрука в міському районі Йоханеберг.

The defending Massachusetts State Collegiate Athletic Conference (MASCAC) champions will host five games this season at Bridgewater State University, while making the trek to five institutions, including Buffalo State in week one.
Bridgewater State, which has unveiled its 2017 slate on its athletic department's website, will play its initial home game on Saturday, September 9th when the Bears entertain Endicott College with kickoff scheduled for 12:00 p.m.
The Gulls and Bears last met in 2012 with Bridgewater State claiming a 20-14 win in Bridgewater. Mike McCarthy highlighted the contest with a pair of rushing scores – he concluded the game with 144 rushing yards on 20 carries.
Bridgewater State won nine games in 2012 and competed in the opening round of the NCAA Division III Tournament against Widener.
Following a pair of non-conference clashes, the Bears will hop into league play with a 'Friday Night' clash with Framingham State University. Last season, Malik Garrett highlighted his team's dramatic (and exciting) win over the Rams as he rushed for a pair of scores, including the game-winning touchdown in overtime, which helped the Bears lock-up the conference crown.
Bridgewater State will close out the opening month with a visit to Fitchburg State (Saturday, September 23rd) and a home date against Westfield State (Saturday, September 30th).
The Bears will visit a pair of squads in October, beginning with Plymouth State on Saturday, October 7th followed by a trip to UMass Dartmouth (Oct. 13th). Bridgewater State beat both squads last season, but needed two overtimes to top the Panthers in Bridgewater.
Bridgewater State will host Western Connecticut on Saturday, October 21st as part of the school's 'Homecoming Weekend' before capping its regular season with back-to-back November tilts against Worcester State (Nov. 4th) and Massachusetts Maritime Academy (Nov. 11th).
PROGRAM NOTE: We'll have more on the Bears as we get closer to the start of the 2017 football season.
BUZZARDS BAY, Mass. – Massachusetts Maritime Academy will look to conclude its regular season slate with a victory against Bridgewater State in tomorrow's 35th Annual Cranberry Bowl presented by Ocean Spray.
Buccaneers head coach Jeremy Cameron would certainly like to send his seniors, who have tallied 20 wins over the past four seasons, out with a win. And after yesterday's luncheon concluded, we caught up with Cameron to chat about the game, as well as his team's season.
On the senior class: "They have and we have 17 of them, and there are some key players like Mike Stanton, Keith Caruso, Stefan Gustafson, Michael Sylvia, John Bochman, Sheldon Roper, John Moriarty (and) Brandon Rodrigues (are just a few), so I'd like to send those guys off and we just appreciate what that senior class has done to our program for the last four years.
On defending BSU quarterback Mike McCarthy: "We've seen all of their games and I have a tremendous amount of respect for him, but frankly I am just blown away by him. He's an absolute stud. The way he runs the ball, week after week is amazing. You know you still can't stop him and then when you allocate too many people to try and stop him he just pulls up and he can make all the throws, so the kid is one of the best football players that I have seen. He's a competitor, tough and just the total package. We're looking forward to seeing him play on Saturday, but we just hope to contain him.
BUZZARDS BAY, Mass. – Bridgewater State quarterback Mike McCarthy will suit up for the final time tomorrow as the Bears travel to Massachusetts Maritime Academy to take on the Buccaneers in the 35th Annual Cranberry Bowl presented by Ocean Spray.
McCarthy and his Bears won't be competing after tomorrow's final whistle due, but expect to play their best football of the season.
Bridgewater enters the game with a 5-4 overall record, along with a 25-8-1 mark against the Buccaneers in this particular contest.
We quickly caught up with McCarthy following yesterday's luncheon to chat about his final collegiate game. Below are highlights from our conversation.
BUZZARDS BAY, Mass. – Bridgewater State will conclude its 2013 slate on Saturday when they travel to Massachusetts Maritime Academy to take on the Buccaneers in the 35th Annual Cranberry Bowl presented by Ocean Spray.
The Bears, who enter the contest with a 5-4 overall record, will look to earn their six win of the season, along with their 26th Cranberry Bowl crown. Bridgewater State has won this contest 25 times, according to the game's program, which includes the two most recent meetings. Massachusetts Maritime has won this contest eight times, including five victories in Buzzards Bay.
After this afternoon's luncheon concluded, Noontime Sports caught up with Bears head coach Chuck Denune to discuss the contest, as well as his team's goals.


I drive a 2006 Hyundai Tiburon with the J290 stereo and six CD changer. If you have this stereo or a similar such stereo you know how it "remembers" what track was playing and exactly where it was playing when you turn it off and back on or switch to the radio. Anyway, this morning, in haste before starting the car or even turning the key to the accessories position, I wanted to swap out the six CDs in the stereo and thus I ejected all of them by simply pressing the eject button. The battery can handle powering the eject mechanism, right?
"Ah, it's just a glitch," I thought, "I'll simply press the load button and put a new CD in there to clear it up." Nope. The stereo would have none of that. In fact, the stereo's CD menus were completely frozen; it would not allow me to do anything with the CD changer, but the radio worked just fine. "Okay, when I get to my destination I'll pull the fuse to the stereo, which will reset the stereo, and then I'll have my beloved bass-thumping stereo back." Nope. That didn't work either.
Once I finally got home at the end of the day I detached the battery. That did the trick. Everything appears to be functioning normally, though I need to reset the clock and my radio presets.
This reminds me of a few PCs and laptops I've used over the years that wouldn't shutdown, even after depressing the power button, and would only turn off after disconnecting the power cable or yanking the battery from the laptop. Conjure up in your imagination any of several images from the Terminator or Matrix movies to see the future of where we're going with technology that won't behave! Or maybe we humans will wind up being the oppressors of non-compliant technology as in the flesh fair scene in A.I.


JUST by looking at the water in Kaler's Pond in East Moriches, it's hard to tell who's right.
Are there or aren't there big large-mouth bass still swimming around down there, just waiting to be caught by local fishermen?
There are no fish, contends David Romeo of East Meadow, who in 1984 set a world record catching 3,001 bass in just 77 days. Most of his fish were caught and released in Kaler's Pond.
But officials of the State Department of Environmental Conservation say there are still plenty of bass in Kaler's Pond. They have just been caught so many times by Mr. Romeo and other fishermen that they have become hook-wise.
The dispute will be settled this week when the Environmental Conservation Department takes a survey of bass in Kaler's Pond. ''We were going to do it anyway,'' Mr. Guthrie said.
The department's fish counting method may seem a real shocker. Called ''electro-fishing,'' it involves zapping the fish with an electrical charge. Using an 18-foot boat that has three eight-foot metal poles wired to a 3,500-watt generator, department employees will send 220 volts of electricity into the water, thereby shocking the fish and knocking them out for a few minutes. The unconscious fish turn on their sides, making them easy to spot. They are netted, measured and counted, then released.
AN East Hampton realtor, Tina S. Fredericks, has sold many an exclusive house in her day, but one of her latest listings, a new house in Sagaponack currently for sale at $750,000, even she admits, ''is going to be tough'' to move.
In the East End real estate world, the stainless steel house of Sagaponack has become this summer's cause celebre.
''This is not your typical house,'' said the architect William B. Gleckman, referring to the 4,400-square-foot structure he created. With a desire for a ''metallic look,'' Mr. Gleckman designed and co-owns with Dr. Rodney B. Ryan of Southampton the first all-stainless-steel-exterior house on Long Island, and possibly in the world, he adds.
The exterior, manufactured by Reynolds Aluminium, ''looks like table flatware,'' Mr. Gleckman said. Other comparisons by some local residents have been less flattering.
WHAT to do if your great works of art start to disintegrate? It's happening to the scultor Bill Tarr of Springs, and it's incredibly frustrating, he says.
Within the last year two of his most important sculptures - ''Morningside Heights,'' a welded steel sculpture weighing 13 tons and measuring 40 feet by 8 feet by 8 feet, and the cube-shaped ''A Monument to Martin Luther King Jr.,'' which the artist says is the largest welded steel sculpture in America, weighing 65 tons and measuring 30 feet by 30 feet by 30 feet - have started to rust so badly that pieces have fallen off.
To avoid any danger to the public, the two sculptures, which stand on street corners in Manhattan, have been boarded up by the New York City Board of Education, which commissioned the works in the late 1960's and early 70's.
''They look like they're in great big packing boxes,'' Mr. Tarr said of the sculptures, which took ''seven years of my life to create.'' The problem, he said, appears to lie with Cor-Ten, the material Mr. Tarr used to make the works.
Cor-Ten, a self-oxidizing metal that is supposed to develop a protective patina, was manufactured by United States Steel, now the USX Corporation. It is not holding up the way it was advertised, Mr. Tarr said. He's been trying to get USX or the Board of Education, which he says didn't maintain the sculptures properly, to help pay for repairing the works. So far nothing has happened. ''I'm cloutless,'' the sculptor said.
A spokesman for USX in Pittsburgh, Norman F. Wesley, said that ''the situation is unfortunate but we have no responsibility in the matter.'' He said Cor-Ten has been used widely in the construction industry.

Marion T. Boden Of Hampton Bays Dies September 5
Marion T. Boden of Hampton Bays died on September 5 at Peconic Bay Medical Center in Riverhead, surrounded by family. She was 94, and just two hours earlier, she had been feeding carrots to her granddaughter's horse when she became ill.
Ms. Boden was born in Brooklyn to Augustus and Marion Bullock. She attended St. Agnes Grammar School and Bishop McDonnell Memorial High School. One of her favorite, though allegedly not too frequent, teenage activities was to skip school with a group of friends and go to the New York Paramount to see such notables as Frank Sinatra and Tommy Dorsey. Despite this, she graduated from high school during the worst of the Great Depression and got a then-coveted job with the New York Telephone Company to help support her family. In her later years, after she lost her sight, she would amuse herself by mentally translating English sayings into Latin.
During World War II, she married Frank X. Boden, who predeceased her in 1987.
Survivors said her favorite saying was, "Isn't nature wonderful!" and that every day she would thank God for the beauty surrounding her little house on the hill. Before she died, she heard Joan Rivers joke about a woman who passed away. Friends were trying to console the family by saying she had gone to a better place. Joan Rivers said, "Are you kidding? What do you mean a better place? She had a house in the Hamptons." Survivors said Ms. Boden loved the joke because she had a house in the Hamptons with a lovely garden and a view of Shinnecock Bay from her deck.
Ms. Boden is survived by four daughters, Marion of Hampton Bays, Jane Muir of Hampton Bays and Florida, Nancy "Midge" of New Jersey and Laura of Hampton Bays and Scarsdale. She is also survived by two sons-in-law, William Muir and Lucas Torres. She was predeceased by son-in-law, Vincent Sforza.
She is survived by her grandchildren, Joseph Sforza and wife Kelly Halloran, Teresa Lambe and husband Gerald, Jane Sellery and husband David, William Muir and wife Christa, Alice DeSarno and husband Christopher, John Muir, Scott Hodges and Steven Hodges and wife LouAnn Raymond, and Emily Boden Torres; 14 great-grandchildren; and a brother, Augustus "Red" Bullock of Massachusetts and his family.
Although related only by marriage, Ms. Boden was thought of as a "sister" and "aunt" to many in the large Boden clan. They include her surviving sisters and brothers-in-law, Patricia Boden, Anne Riggs, Richard Racioppi, Angie Boden and Edwin Boden.
Funeral arrangements were under the direction of the R.J. O'Shea Funeral Home in Hampton Bays. Family members played an important part in her funeral Mass at St. Rosalie's Catholic Church in Hampton Bays, which included the singing of the Ave Maria by her granddaughter Alice and a eulogy delivered by her son-in-law Bill. Burial was at Good Ground Cemetery in Hampton Bays.

OWU profs talk COVID-19
Quaye
Biser
Four Ohio Wesleyan University professors with vastly different backgrounds discussed finding solutions to problems posed by the novel coronavirus pandemic in a YouTube video Monday.
"In a crazy twist of fate, I'm now teaching a course on the Black Death," said history professor Ellen Arnold. She is referring to the most fatal pandemic in history, which killed 100 to 200 million people in Europe and Asia from 1346-1353. Arnold's emphasis is on environmental history.
Arnold said that although the world of the Middle Ages was different in many ways than it is now, their human responses to disease mirrors what we're seeing today, with examples of people doing good things, bad things, being indifferent, hopeful, fearful, generous and greedy.
"That interplay of difference and similarity is what makes it so exciting," Arnold said. "One of the things we do as historians is not only tell the stories of the past, but look at ways that people of the past told stories for the future, so that we could understand our world by looking at the ways they understood theirs."
Past pandemics and disasters "expose the underbelly of society, to let you see the structures that are in place — the invisible social, racial, gender, religious and economic structures, and the assumptions people bring into their worlds."
In the case of the Black Death, some historians suggest it ultimately led to the end of feudalism, the predominant social system of medieval Europe.
"Food security is incredibly important in times of disaster and disease," Arnold said. "In 1347-48, there were so many that died that there were not enough people to harvest the crops, so the food system was radically disrupted. It forced workers and landholders to re-evaluate their goals."
While expertise is needed, Arnold said we also need to remember there is "a lot of skepticism of expertise. There are times when experts have been wrong or had malicious intent. Resistance to experts is complicated. A blanket solution may not work."
She suggested local and community experts are vitally important in those instances.
Randy Quaye, professor of Black world studies, is the author of three books and is an expert in health care and social conditions in the African American community.
Quaye said he wondered why in some circles people refer to COVID-19 as the Chinese virus, and why the pandemic is affecting people differently. He said that ideas are not limited by national boundaries, and knowledge is not the preserve of a particular group.
"I do believe that globally some countries are doing better than others," Quaye said. "What I'm really worried about is what we do for citizens in developing countries, like in Ghana, the system is overstretched. Countries that rely on resources like Nigeria, 60% of its revenue depends on oil, and given the price of oil now has made it very difficult to obtain the resources to meet this challenge.
"In Europe, given that they have national health systems, the impact is not going to be as severe as one would expect because everyone is covered," Quaye continued. "In the United States, I think we are doing well, but still have a long way to go given that we currently have 12% of our population who are uninsured."
He was concerned that Native Americans often have to travel 50 miles to reach the nearest hospital, and that "it is a disgrace that people are going hungry in our country."
Quaye spoke about possible solutions such as a more decentralized system of government, putting more food in shelters and pantries, and using community-based initiatives such as churches for testing and quarantining.
"I would urge our leaders to make sure we have accessible health care," Quaye said. This "disease is communicable. If you get this disease, whether you do the right thing or not forces us to be cautious about how we treat others. We really have to think about best practices."
Professor of politics and government Ashley Biser opened the discussion "in the spirit of mutual respect and learning."
Biser said, "It's our contention that we can't understand what's happening to us unless we learn from experts in many different fields. Only with our combined knowledge can we finds ways to craft a better future."
She said society will need to balance between the rights of the individual and the greater good of the community in the wake of the new coronavirus pandemic.
"There is an irony that we're all in this together, but many people are experiencing this pandemic differently," Biser said. "I'm looking forward to finding ways we can work with others after we get to leave our houses safely to find ways to build solidarity among different communities to work together."
A professor of politics and government, Sean Kay's specialty is global and national security. He said that during the Sputnik crisis in 1957, many Americans were worried about Russian technology with their launch of the world's first satellite.
"President Dwight Eisenhower said we're going to need a lot of investment in science and education," Kay said. "He said, we're not just going to need the Einsteins — we're going to need the Emersons. (Ralph Waldo) Emerson was a transcendental poet. What does that have to do with national security? Everything. Because it gives us a context, the breadth to understand things and better find things we can find agreement and move ourselves as society, nation, and a world going forward. It's time for this country to liberate it's human capital."
At the local level, Kay felt that Dr. Amy Acton and Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine's handling of the COVID-19 crisis is a model and leader for the world.
"We're going to have to have open minds and open hearts," he said. "We're going to have to be really patient as we do the reopening.
"We need to make sure we stick with the motto of the course," Kay said. "We're all going to have to help each other by challenging assumptions, being respectful and listening, and then getting busy. We're Americans, we can do this stuff."
The four professors were in a panel discussion that began "We're in This Together: An Interdisciplinary Exploration of the Coronavirus Pandemic." The course is available to OWU students and the public.
An OWU spokesman said more than 800 people have registered for the free 10-week online class, which was developed by 25 instructors over seven weeks.
"We're overwhelmed by the response," said OWU President Rock Jones. "Here at Ohio Wesleyan we are known for small classes, often with a dozen or 15 students. So this is quite different for us. … You'll have the opportunity to experience the compelling teaching of our faculty that our students experience every day."

Q: Need hint for this olympiad combinatorics problem I've been thinking about this combinatorics problem for a few days but couldn't figure it out, a hint would be highly appreciated.
Numbers $1,2,\dots,2019$ are written on a board.
You keep doing the following operation:
Select numbers $a, b, c , a+b+c$ from the board erase them and write $a+b, a+c, b+c$.
Show that you can't keep doing the operation more than $600$ times.
The only things I can notice are pretty basic, the sum of the numbers is constant and so the average keeps on increasing, you need at least a number less than $2019/3$ or 2 less than $2019/2$ for each operation. I couldn't think any further, any hints?

A: Not only $\sum a_i$ is invariant, but also $\sum a_i^2$:
$$(a+b+c)^2+a^2+b^2+c^2=(a+b)^2+(b+c)^2+(a+c)^2.$$
So when starting with the integers $1,2,\ldots, N$, after $m$ of moves, we have $n=N-m$ integers $a_i$ with some average $\overline a=\frac 1n\sum a_i $and for these we find
$$\begin{align}0&\le\sum(a_i-\overline{a})^2\\&=\sum a_i^2-2\overline{a}\sum a_i +\sum \overline{a}^2\\&=\sum a_i^2-\frac1n\left(\sum {a_i}\right)^2\end{align} $$
We conclude that
$$ n\ge \frac{\left(\sum {a_i}\right)^2}{\sum a_i^2}=
\frac{\left(\sum_{k=1}^{N} k\right)^2}{\sum_{k=1}^{N} k^2}
=\frac{\left(\frac{N(N+1)}2\right)^2}{\frac{N(N+1)(2N+1)}6}
=\frac{3N (N+1)}{2( 2N+1)}>\frac 34 N$$
and so
$$m=N-n<\frac N4.$$
With $N=2019$, this gives us
$$ m\le 504.$$

Canada says the Sinixt tribe is extinct. The tribe's American descendants disagree.
September 14, 2018 · 4:15 PM EDT
By Emily Schwing

Listen to the story.
Rick Desautel, flanked by his daughter and his wife, Linda (right), celebrates his acquittal of illegal hunting charges outside the provincial courthouse in Nelson, British Columbia, in March 2017.
Emily Schwing/PRI
About a decade ago, Rick Desautel, an American descendant of the Sinixt tribe of Canada, decided to challenge a declaration by the Canadian government — that the Sinixt in Canada were officially extinct.
The declaration had come after the last Sinixt member in British Columbia passed away in 1956. As a result, Sinixt descendants like Desautel who regularly crossed the US border into Canada lost their rights to traditional land claims in that country.
"One of the big things that I wanted to get was the invisibility of me erased," Desautel says, "so I can come back here and have some input on things that are happening in this country to save a lot of this history that's still here."
Desautel lives on the reservation of the Confederated Tribes of the Colville in northeast Washington state. In 2009, he crossed the border into Canada to shoot an elk to be used for Sinixt ceremonies such as weddings and funerals. His wife, Linda, helped him quarter and haul the elk out. She said her husband figured they could just strap it on her back.
"I'm just thinking to myself 'Holy criminy, what the hell you doing to me, trying to kill me?' But, we got it out," she says.
But Desautel wasn't a resident of Canada and he didn't have a hunting license, so the hunting trip was illegal. For him, it was also a protest.
"I knew for a fact that if somebody didn't start this, it never going to get going," Desautel says. "So, when I was asked if I wanted to start this, I said, 'Sure, I'll come up here and kick up a little dust and see what happens here.'"
On March 27, 2017, a court in British Columbia acquitted Desautel of charges related to illegal hunting. According to the judge, Desautel was exercising an aboriginal right that stretches back thousands of years.
"I knew for a fact that my ancestral grounds were here," Desautel said after the ruling.
Sinixt descendants who were gathered outside the courthouse cheered, cried and threw their arms around each other. The celebration was a long time in coming.
The Sinixt, like many Indigenous tribes, have faced centuries of conflict. White settlers started arriving within Sinixt traditional homeland in the early 1800s. Eventually, the Sinixt were pushed across the US-Canada border and onto the Colville Reservation. More than 4,000 Sinixt descendants live there today — among them Shelly Boyd, who comes from a long line of Canadian Sinixt. She testified at Desautel's trial.
"There's been some moments in this past year when we sat in the courtroom and heard the judge for the first time say that we were not extinct, that that was ridiculous. I never thought I'd hear that in my lifetime," Boyd says.
But the case isn't over. The provincial government lost an appeal in late December. Now, the case is before British Columbia's Court of Appeals. The latest hearing was on Sept. 12. The province argues the ruling could raise questions about the security of Canada's border.
The provincial government has declined multiple requests for comment because the case is still in the appeals process. Questions about reparations for the Sinixt tribe remain unanswered for now. But some observers say this small case about hunting an elk could set a big precedent for tribal sovereignty issues in Canada in the future.

Merit Scholarship Strategist Nancy Paul Urges Families To Do Their Homework to Win the Most Institutional Merit Aid
Nancy Paul, author of the Amazon best-seller The Little Book about Scholarships, encourages families to take the time to study the opportunities that exist for their student to win both private and institutional merit scholarships – money for college based on achievement. Institutional merit aid comes from colleges while private merit aid is offered by businesses, individuals, and organizations.
"Most families are unaware of how to use merit scholarships to their full advantage," Paul shares. She adds, "Schools offering institutional merit aid to their list of prospective colleges, while also pursuing a range of local and national private merit scholarships, position students to win more money for college that doesn't have to be paid back."
"Institutional aid is often renewable and larger than private scholarships," Paul reveals. "The best way to win institutional merit aid is to be overqualified in terms of GPA and standardized test scores," Paul shares. "Schools vary on how – and whether – they award merit scholarships, and a good rule of thumb is to apply to some schools where the student's GPA and test scores are at least 25% higher than the average at that school."
Paul clarifies one point in the recent Wall Street Journal article which says, "In most cases, students don't need to actively seek merit scholarships from colleges and universities which tend to determine who will get help when reviewing applications and transcripts."
"While institutional merit aid is often awarded without a separate application," she explains, "families can miss out on large amounts of money by not fully researching all the requirements as well as the opportunities available at a given school."
There are institutional merit scholarships that do require a separate application, such as UCLA's Alumni Scholars Award, which currently provides as much as $ 20,000 over four years. Paul's eldest daughter, Rebecca, won the top Alumni Scholar Award for the State of California in 2010.
There may also be merit scholarships open only to upperclassmen.
"Furthermore, some colleges have admissions deadlines tied to automatic consideration for merit aid," Paul continues. "Students may still apply for admission after that date; however, they forfeit consideration for merit aid." Indiana University, as example, requires student to apply by November 1, to be automatically eligible for merit aid as an incoming freshman.
Paul has first-hand experience of the pain of missing such deadlines. Following the advice of their private college counselor, her youngest daughter waited to apply to Indiana until her latest ACT score was available, and missed the scholarship deadline. Kayla was admitted, but missed out on as much as $11,000 per year.

After growing my hair out for two and a half years, I was excited and apprehensive to dye my hair once again.
Apprehensive because I had to lighten it to get any colour to show up and didn't want the same harsh, obvious re-growth that I'd just recently got rid of.
Excited because duh. I live for brightly coloured hair.
I didn't want to do the bleaching myself, though, so I visited Studio 62 in Dubbo to get it professionally done for the first time in my life. They did it so that it would grow out a little more subtle, as you can see from the photos, and lifted it to a beautiful ashy blonde that I would love to have all over my head one day, when I could guarantee I'd get it professional done on a regular basis. The photos really don't do the blonde colour justice.
Since I'd already bought the colour I was going to cover the blonde with (on the assumption the blonde would look terrible on me), I only waited a few days before dying it again, with the help of my boyfriend.
After washing and blow drying my hair, we lazily sectioned it into four at my insistence. If I'd had some clips at my disposal, I might have done smaller sections, but I couldn't be bothered when I was using hairbands to keep it out of the way. Of course, I highly recommend doing so if you want an even coverage. There are parts of my hair where the blonde shows through and that looks more green than blue. I'm not particularly fussed by it, but might pick up some more dye to try and even it out a little more.
We used L'oreal Paris Colourista Washout in #AQUAHAIR. Each tube contains 80mls and we used three tubes. It was covered with two, but the third was to make sure my hair was thoroughly saturated.
One of my favourite things about dying my hair is that it always feels amazingly soft afterwards and this time it was no different. Until viewing the photos, I had no idea how damaged my hair looked after the bleaching. The dye didn't call for any conditioner to be used afterwards since it contains it, so I wasn't sure how it would feel in the end.
As you can tell from the photos, though, my hair was in much better condition afterwards. It was silky soft to the touch. Though my ends are probably still a little dry, my hair bounds back pretty fast from any damage done to it and I rarely blow dry and straighten my hair either, so until I dye it again that's it for the damage I'll purposely and knowingly inflict on it.
I left the dye on for 25 minutes because I wanted a vivid colour, but the shorter you leave it on the more pastel it's supposed to appear. I'm pretty happy with the colour, although I think my dark roots make it not seem too bright, at least to me. I love seeing it in the sun, though. I'm hoping that the colour will last about a month between only washing it a few times a week and washing it in cold water. The only unknown factor is that I swim pretty regularly now, but it's in a salt pool, not a chlorine one, so we'll have to see how that affects the colour.
Assuming it lasts as well as I hope, I'll be dying it again sometime in February. There are a few different colours I want to try from this brand so I'll be able to give a few ago and eventually be able to comment on the brand and dye overall.
Let me know your favourite hair dye brands (mine is Schwarzkopf) in the comments. Heck, send me selfies of your brightly coloured manes. I wanna see!

        <meta charset="UTF-8">
        <title>ListenFTP</title>
        <link rel="stylesheet" href="../../../../../css/component-usage.css" type="text/css" />

Usage Description

            By starting the processor, an FTP server is started that listens for incoming connections on the specified port.
            Each file copied to this FTP server gets converted into a FlowFile and transferred to the next processor via
            the ListenFTP processor's 'success' relationship.

            Before starting the processor, the following properties can be set:

Bind Address: if not set, the FTP server binds to all network interfaces of the host machine
                    (this is the default). If set to a valid address, the server is only available on that specific address.

Listening Port: the port on which the server listens for incoming connections.
                    Root privileges are required on Linux to be able to use port numbers below 1024.

Username and Password: Either both of them need to be set, or none of them. If set, the FTP server
                    only allows users to log in with the username-password pair specified in these properties.
                    If the Username and Password properties are left blank, the FTP server allows anonymous connections,
                    meaning that the client can connect to the FTP server by providing 'anonymous' as username, and leaving
                    the password field blank. Setting empty string as the value of these properties is not permitted, and doing so
                    results in the processor becoming invalid.

SSL Context Service: a Controller Service can optionally be specified that provides the ability to
                    configure keystore and/or truststore properties. When not specified, the FTP server does not use encryption.
                    By specifying an SSL Context Service, the FTP server started by this processor is set to use
                    Transport Layer Security (TLS) over FTP (FTPS).

                    If an SSL Context Service is selected, then a keystore file must also be specified in the SSL Context Service.
                    Without a keystore file, the processor cannot be started successfully.

                    Specifying a truststore file is optional. If a truststore file is specified, client authentication is required
                    (the client needs to send a certificate to the server).

                    Regardless of the selected TLS protocol, the highest available protocol is used for the connection.
                    For example if NiFi is running on Java 11 and TLSv1.2 is selected in the controller service as the preferred TLS protocol,
                    TLSv1.3 will be used (regardless of TLSv1.2 being selected) because Java 11 supports TLSv1.3.

            After starting the processor and connecting to the FTP server, an empty root directory is visible in the client application.
            Folders can be created in and deleted from the root directory and any of its subdirectories.
            Files can be uploaded to any directory. Uploaded files do not show in the content list of directories, since
            files are not actually stored on this FTP server, but converted into FlowFiles and transferred to the next processor via the
            'success' relationship. It is not possible to download or delete files like on a regular FTP server.

            All the folders (including the root directory) are virtual directories, meaning that they only exist in memory and do not get
            created in the file system of the host machine. Also, these directories are not persisted: by restarting the processor all the
            directories (except for the root directory) get removed. Uploaded files do not get removed by restarting the processor, since
            they are not stored on the FTP server, but transferred to the next processor as FlowFiles.

            When a file named for example text01.txt is uploaded to the target folder /MyDirectory/MySubdirectory, a FlowFile gets
            created. The content of the FlowFile is the same as the content of text01.txt, the 'filename' attribute of the FlowFile
            contains the name of the original file (text01.txt) and the 'path' attribute of the flowfile contains the path where the file
            was uploaded (/MyDirectory/MySubdirectory/).

            The list of the FTP commands that are supported by the FTP server is available by starting the processor and
            issuing the 'HELP' command to the server from an FTP client application.

24.10.2016 — Interview
Interview Survey:
Doremifasolasido
Florence Arts Centre, Cumbria
by Jackie Haynes
Doremifasolasido 2016 residency and exhibition at Florence Arts Centre, Egremont, Cumbria was the second manifestation of an artist-led residency inviting emerging artists from around the country to Cumbria to forge links between artists and arts organisations working in urban and rural settings.
This year taking place at Florence Art Centre based in the former shower block of the now-disused Florence Mine, the selected participating resident artists were Pippa Eason, Mark Essen, Stephanie Farmer, Merlin Fulcher, Freya Gabie, Jackie Haynes, Louis-Jack Horton-Stephens, David Lisser, Bess Martin, Jocelyn McGregor, Elizabeth Porter, Lisa Risbec, Sarah Tew, Esmerelda Valencia, Lillian Wilkie, Joshua Wilson & Jacob Wolff.
Post-residency Jackie Haynes carried on conversations that developed around themes of materiality and how residencies help artists to develop their practices and compare their individual experiences with one another. Asking all participants the same questions, below are a selected collection of responses:
What material did you bring along to the residency?
Ranging from nothing, to what could be carried by one person on public transport, to more detailed accounts such as this by artist and residency co-organiser, Jocelyn McGregor: 'I brought an existing artwork called 'Jennifer' that I'd made in response to one of the first R&D trips to Florence Arts Centre – when I met Jenni Payne and heard about the Florence Paintmakers. I mixed in a small amount of the Florence hematite pigment into body casts I'd been making, turning out legs like fingers of some sort of giantess'.
This was the first visit to Florence Mine for most. Without giving too much away, a strategy also adopted by the organisers to leave space for the full impact of the site on arrival, the materiality of the site was immediate and apparently irresistible. This is the sort of place which warrants a visit rather than relying on representations of it.
The commitment of bringing pre-prepared work, ideas and selected materials presents a situation where habits of mind and practice can be tested, stretched and developed, as indicated by David Lisser: 'it was quite hard to choose what to include in my 'sculptors survival bag' as any particular choice would determine the kind of work I could make.' Surviving with studio essentials was a consideration for many, including Sarah Tew, who packed her 'staple diet: pencils, black block printing ink, food dyes, paper, blotting paper, chromatography paper, photo print outs of recent studio doings.' Whereas conversely, I abandoned my original plans to explore the Cumbrian coastline for 30 shades of sticky-backed plastic and the materiality of the scrap yard. I was drawn to the faltering activity of the once essential components being in suspended animation until reactivated. Conversely and thinking collectively even prior to arrival was co-organiser Steph Farmer's approach: 'I brought absolutely loads of stuff but used very little of it. I partly brought things that I thought other artists might need'.
What material other than what you brought did you use?
Florence Art Centre is in walking distance of Egremont town centre, home of gurning and the annual Egremont Crab Fair. Located to the west of the Lake District National Park, it is reachable by the jaw-dropping Cumbrian Coastal Railway route.
This creates possibilities for picking up materials and inspiration along the way. Elizabeth Porter stopped off en route, 'A local quarry gave me a block of the local pink sandstone' and Lillian Wilkie used 'bric a brac bought from charity shops in Egremont' whereas Bess Martin amongst other things, used 'clay, bought for a fiver from another artist on site.'
Almost without exception, participants used the plentiful locations, objects and substances left over from Florence Mine's industrial past. Pippa Eason 'used the Egremont Red pigment, in many forms. I used the pigment to paint with, which was used in a variant of pinks/reds in the work. I also salvaged grills from the scrap heap'.
For 90 years, up until 2007 when the Florence mine closed for good, iron ore was extracted from miles of underground tunnels by the thousands of miners who used to shower in what is now Florence Art Centre. Of great significance during the residency were the first hand accounts of the mine, from site owners Barbara and Gilbert Finlinson and Garry's tour of the pit head, mine shafts and wells. On site resources extended even further, to technical support, event promotion, Florence Paintmakers' workshop and equipment facilities, all facilitated with off-the-scale hospitality from the Florence community.
What material did you regret not bringing?
This question yielded the least results although Jocelyn McGregor felt that – 'Oddly enough, I almost regret bringing my materials full stop… I couldn't shake the feeling that I could do this on my own time – I felt that this project was about the group, and for that week, so was I.' Mark Essen regretted not bringing books and Sarah Tew also identified a genuine lack but remained philosophical: 'Large scale sheets of print-making paper (uncontaminated). However, the lack of this forced the work to remain linked to the site of making/process.' Responses from artist/organisers reveal that theirs was quite a different experience from other participants, having a range of curatorial concerns to deal with as the rest of us merrily got on with the business of art production. To their credit, all aspects of the residency were managed seamlessly. This ranged from hosting the daily breakfast caravan to accommodating the coach load of friends and writers from Different Skies Publication arriving at Tarnside Caravan Park from London at 4am in horizontal rain. Close to Tarnside was Sellafield nuclear processing plant, which inspired regrets from Merlin Fulcher: 'At the time I also wished I had brought a Geiger counter because this would have allowed me to analyse the campsite and arts centre for any radioactive particles. However on reflection such findings (if any) may have unduly coloured the artwork and limited other creative possibilities. Also interpreting the data in an interesting, responsible and thought provoking way may have been tricky without training in the equipment. I had planned to distribute sea kelp capsules (as protective tokens) to tour participants but I was unable to source these in time.'
How did you use the material you brought?
Josh Wilson, who describes himself as a 'noticer' more than a 'maker', 'couldn't help but think, what was I doing here? To just get something done and to grab my own insecurities by the scruff of the neck, I confronted the residual labour relations through an absurd performance that considered my male characteristics in relation to the public memory or idea of the male character types that worked in the mine. So I literally scattered every item of clothing of mine around the equipment, underpants and all, and then I stood on a make shift platform with a drum and haphazardly 'sang' the introductory leaflet to Florence Mine.'
The term material comes fully loaded with subjective apprehensions circling, for instance, around tools, processes, concluded work, documentation and theory. Freya Gabie, possibly both a 'noticer' and a 'maker', describes how she used different forms of material: 'the water I pulled from the mineshaft I froze in the form of a rock (using an amazing mould!) that was pink in colour from the iron ore. This melted during the show leaving a red stained trace of the sculpture…. I also used my recorder to record loads of incredible stories from the miners Garry and Gilbert.'
Five days of largely uninterrupted productivity prior to a group show is arguably both luxurious and not very much time at all. Lisa Risbec responded: 'I mainly used the paper, as a base for the pigment. I got obsessed with the shimmering pink tones left when the paper was dipped into the mounds of iron ore. I think I probably spent a disproportionate amount of time sat in the pink shed next to the pink digger rubbing the ore into the paper.'
The different rhythms of each participating artist in the group gradually became apparent, with the outcomes of artistic experimentation becoming visible around the site over the week. Dave Lisser: 'I found an old wooden brake block that would've been used to clamp the steel cables that led down the shaft. It was quite clear that this had never been put into service and I thought there was a subtle poetry about an unused brake block. It was quite a beautiful shape and very reminiscent of totem carvings, so I decided to carve it a counter-part out of a discarded sleeper and see what I could draw from their relationship.'
How the range of outcomes would exist together in a group show seemed to organically find its way onto the agenda – or maybe this is an example of the seamless management. With the gallery at our disposal, it was clear that the exhibition would extend to the immediate surroundings. In preparation for his performance as well as evening walking workshop, Merlin Fulcher used his 'brought materials to scour the internet for text and image resources which could help me produce content for my performance. Google Earth's satellite imagery was very useful for recording my findings (using digital map pins) and also for investigating unknown objects on the horizon such as Sellafield's dome-shaped experimental reactor.'
Describe new ways of working discovered on the residency:
[EP] 'I gathered at Florence Mine, material that I will be using for the next few years.'
[LW] 'Working intuitively and for pleasure. Satisfying impulses. Talking problems through earnestly with people who I didn't really know but already felt very close to.'
[ME] 'Communication in short terms, sniffing around others, exchange in ideas, thoughts, beliefs and views.'
[JW] 'The relentlessness of discovery and making was very different to my kind of tangential drifting, but fascinating and inspiring to see.'
[PE] 'I learned to think on my feet, no planning, no over thinking. I thought purely on a material basis, to discover how materials worked together.'
[EVL] 'It was completely new to me to work on a video work consisting of sections of footage making up one sequence with a beginning and end and which was not dependent on the space in which it was shown.'
[SF] 'I've started putting paper into clay which feels like a real development for me from my papier-mâché work… I think it was that big pile of pigment that made me want to make my papier-mâché more earthy.'
[LR] 'Gathering and arranging, responding to a site and creating temporary and permanent sculptural collages, as well as writings on the context of the site which formed whilst I made work.'
[BM] 'I am usually shy to work quickly, messily and experimentally around others but I felt comfortable and was able to do so and produce work I am proud of too.'
[FG] 'Everything I learnt from the miners, listening to there stories and going on walks with them around all the local disused mines, it was incredible! '
Describe reflections on differences or gaps between intentions and outcomes before and/or during and/or after the residency:
[LW] 'I now recognise that I was guilty of another interesting tendency of artists on residencies – superficial engagement with a locale, exoticizing localness and performing a sort of impotent engagement. After all, what can one seriously achieve in a week, in a night, that can constitute engagement?'
[ME] 'I kept looking at people and then looking at their work and thinking what does this work they're making represent? I went away from that only to reflect on my work, in turn ask myself the same, what am I trying to represent, in turn was a daunting thought.'
[JH] 'I went with the intention of producing work which presented it's own material self rather than representing anything, with the ambition of privileging materiality over language. A series of micro-interventions, entitled 'Decommissioned,' involved, for example, the use of a currently off-road milk float as a vehicle for branding the Doremifasolasido residency. Having persuaded Jacob Wolff to spray in the letters missing from a rejected vinyl decal job, I arguably foregrounded language, not leaving enough work for the viewer, leaving a gap between intention and outcome.'
[EV] 'The tasks set up were excuses to meet and interact with people in a new environment. At the same time I was worried that the situations would be too interesting or engaging for me want to make art of them.'
Artist and co-organiser Louis Horton-Stevens explains the name of the residency, also the title of a Kurt Schwitters collage: 'Doremifasolasido was chosen to be the title of the residency whilst establishing the first instance of it in 2015 at the Merz Barn. The word seemed to capture the lyrical, all-embracing and whimsical nature of Schwitters' practice. All of these qualities felt very relevant to what we were doing with the residency.'
Jackie Haynes is currently a PhD candidate at University of Cumbria Institute for the Arts, researching selected aspects of the legacy of Kurt Schwitters/Merz through art practice.

Q: Subtitles do not appear immediately after I have stopped them and enabled them again I am using VLC media player to watch movies, and sometimes I enable subtitles with the V hotkey. And they work fine.
But if I accidentally press the V key again, and then one time more, the same line of the subtitles never appears again unless I rewind the video a bit backwards.
Is it possible to change this behavior?

A: No, unfortunately. With "soft subs", which you certainly are using (from your described behavior), it is not possible to change this behavior, because the subtitle info consists only of text, start timestamp, and sometimes display duration. So if you're past the start timestamp, the subtitle "event" isn't seen and doesn't happen.
There might be other players that support the behavior you're looking for (as implementing it is conceivably possible), I do not know. But VLC's subtitle parser, from all my experience, doesn't support seeking backwards to look for the most recent subtitle from any given point.
Note: OP points out in comments below that SMPlayer has this capability, so that is a potential alternate player.

With "closed subs" (or "prerendered subs"), you'd see the behavior you want anyways, because these are just another video layer that can be hidden and displayed on top of the main video at will.
With "hard subs", you wouldn't be able to turn them off at all, really, since they are part of the actual video itself.

If for some reason you really have to have this behavior in a player that doesn't support this, you could try to find a tool that will render soft subs to a closed sub (prerendered) format. Then you should be able to use that, although you would lose some features like the ability to change subtitle fonts, colors, etc. on the fly.

That said; one alternate approach to solving your problem of accidentally pressing the key could be to change the keyboard shortcut to something like CtrlAltV (or whatever, check that it doesn't conflict with anything else first) that is harder to accidentally press. Or disable the shortcut altogether if you never use it.
You can do this in VLC if you go to Tools → Preferences → Hotkeys.
