Live Wire Blog, MESSAGE FROM THE CENTER
Frank Warren: PostSecret Live" Weds. Jan. 23, 2015-Royce Hall
January 28, 2015 Administrator
(Unsigned editorial from the performance program notes)
In the last decade, PostSecret Project founder Frank Warren has received more than a million postcards. That is a staggering amount of secrets to imagine that one human is willing to assume compassionate responsibilty for. It is also a staggering example of the capacity for empathy we all possess.
The secrets have come from around the world, each bearing a secret the anonymous senders might otherwise never voice.
Hopes, fears, confessions, regrets, dreams, all captured on 4×6 cards that come pouring into Frank's mailbox, and his home, every day.
Tonight, we'll get to see some of the postcards that didn't end up on the PostSecret website or in one of Frank's books. But we haven't all gathered here just to pull back the curtain on the lives of strangers. Frank will share what all those secrets have taught him about the unseen dramas unfolding all around us, and how they can help us be more compassionate.
We all feel the need to conceal parts of ourselves. Whatever our individual secrets may be, we each make daily decisions about what to share and what to hide, which doors to open and which to keep locked.
Here at the Center, we believe in opening doors. We believe in creating a space where we can share an experience, and be reminded that our own most personal truth can be recognized in the unlikeliest of places. Each time an artist takes the stage, it's an invitation to make a connection. PostSecret reminds us that the act of sharing a secret, on an anonymous postcard or in front of a crowd, is just another kind of invitation to connect, another door being thrown open.
Inspired by PostSecret, we've been collecting anonymous answers to the question, What's the Boldest Thing You've Ever Done? Hundreds of cards were dropped into collection boxes across campus over the last few months. They are on display tonight in the lobby. Some, no doubt, carry secrets. All of them help us to see someone else's life through their own eyes.
We hope you'll share your boldest moment, public or private, by submitting your own card before you leave tonight.
We're honored to have Frank Warren here, and to share this evening of insight and discovery with you. Thanks for being here, and for bringing your curiosity and your compassion.
We hope you leave with a new door open.

Bringing 'Peace & Quiet' to Campus
September 25, 2014 Meryl
I am a civilian.
I am a veteran.
Two stacks of small, white note-cards, each printed with the above words. On each card, underneath the printed words are handwritten responses:
I am a civilian, and I want to ask…what did you witness?
I am a veteran, and I wish the world worked in a way that no one needed an army.
These cards were part of a public installation called Peace and Quiet. Conceptualized and designed by Matter Architecture Practice, the original Peace & Quiet was installed in Times Square in 2012 as a temporary dialogue station where veterans and civilians, two groups whose paths increasingly do not cross – could engage in conversation, leave a note, share a story, or just shake hands. When the Center committed to presenting the Los Angeles premiere of Basetrack, a live performance piece featuring the real-life stories of servicemen and women; I began doing research into art projects that explored the veteran/civilian experience in new ways, and after much searching, I found Peace & Quiet. Luckily, Sandra and Alfred, Matter's Co-Directors were willing and eager to revisit the project, so Peace & Quiet will have a new life: re-designed and installed on the UCLA Quad, between the iconic Royce Hall and Powell Library. The quad, one of UCLA's great public spaces, provides an ideal circumstance to host a dialogue station, to initiate and inform an exchange of ideas, and to offer a highly visible hub highlighting the many programs UCLA offers the veteran community.
Last month, before a meeting with the team from Matter, I stood at the northern edge of the Brooklyn Naval Yard, where Matter has their studio. The sky was impossibly clear and blue for an August day in New York, a vibrant backdrop for the Yard's 200-year-old buildings, which stood their ground next to new construction. Established by President John Adams in 1801, the Yard's first naval ship was built and launched to suppress the slave trade off the coast of Africa.
Our country's relationship to conflict is deep and complicated. At the tip of the Naval Yard, surrounded by the bridges that connect Brooklyn to Manhattan, I hoped that our version of Peace & Quiet will be its own bridge: connecting stories, revealing history, closing the gap.
For more information on the upcoming Peace & Quiet installation click here.

Help get the dialogue going by participating in our Peace & Quiet tumblr. We're starting with the concept of service. Share a thought or a quote or a video or photo that answers the question "How do you serve?"

This week at CAP UCLA we are proud to present two unique programs that explore compelling landscapes in musical theater and dance through the art of monologue. These creative and authentic artists harness the spoken word form in ways that will stir your soul—with Young Jean Lee's WE'RE GONNA DIE (starting Wednesday) and Jerome Bel's Cedric Andrieux (Saturdaynight).
Words have power, I believe. The power to tell stories, reveal truths and inspire true human connection. Thinking about these two shows made me think about an interview I heard not too long ago between Michael Silverblatt and Aleksander Hemon. The Bosnian author was talking about his book, "The Book of My Lives,"which contains a personal and very emotional remembering of the loss of his daughter. In the interview the author talked about how he was confronted by a friend at that time who said: "words fail in these situations."
No, Hemon said. Being a writer, he has belief in words. Words don't fail, he said. Platitudes do. Empty phrases that don't instigate connection or communication fail. But thoughtful, reflective words with meaning behind them, those can heal, those can inspire.
What you'll find here at CAP UCLA this week and weekend is a fulsome sense of the power of words, within the context of the art of performance. And you'll be in great hands.
Young Jean Lee is a trailblazing New York theater maker. She comes to Los Angeles for the first time with a profound and acutely realized collection of songs and stories about loneliness, loss and pain, alchemized into a surprisingly uplifting performance that might just leave us more hopeful, more connected, more compassionate and more understanding of our shared human experience.
Young Jean Lee recently told LA Weekly that she conceived this work as sort of self-therapy.
"My father had just died," she remembers. "I tell the story in the show — he died in such a horrible way that I was so traumatized and felt completely isolated from everybody. And then I was thinking, when you're in that place, where you're in so much pain that nobody can reach you, I was like, 'What can be of comfort then?'"
Saturday night we bring another perspective on the human experience—our inclination to strive for success, for expression, for joy and for creative pursuit.
We bring to the Royce Hall stage an incredibly intimate examination of the inspirations and challenges behind the growth and success of one artist—named for and performed by celebrated French dancer Cédric Andrieux. Part spoken word, part solo dance performance, this work by famed French choreographer Jerome Bel, reveals the experiences that propel and compel an artistic life.
In a nakedly honest moment on the stage, the former Merce Cunningham company dancer Andrieux tells us the stories of his life, his loves and his frustrations. Andrieux and Bel invite the audience to embrace the role of avid and confidential spectator, not just of one immediate evening of performance, but of one artist's personal evolution.
Typically in dance performance, the movement speaks volumes. But in this penetrating performance, the words carry weight and power to build an aesthetic bridge between artist and audience.
It's a rare and magical insight into what goes on behind the curtain and inside the heart and mind of an artist.
At one point in the performance Andrieux admits: "This solo, for me, it's thinking about 20 years of my life, through what I have done in dance. I realized I had never spent that much time thinking of what I had done and why I had done it."
Working with Jerome on this solo allowed Cedric to do just that–and he quite movingly shares the revelations this process has wrought for him.
So, if you also, often consider why you do the things you do, if you ever wonder how to deal with pain and loss, if you are into the kind of thoughtful, reflective moments that might just help us all remember how much more we belong to one another than not, please do join us for Young Jean Lee and Cedric Andrieux this week.

Notes from Kristy: Thinking of Lou Reed
October 28, 2013 Kristy Edmunds
As I write this, I feel a combined sensation of a need to honor and a gut filled sorrow from the loss of a truly great artist, Lou Reed. Having received countless messages, I am expressing on behalf of many the acute sensation of longing which comes to the surface when we lose someone who inspired us deeply. Importantly also, is a shared depth of gratitude for his contributions in so many ways to our collective experience through his poetry, music and spirited fullness. I offer our support, condolence and sincere compassion to Laurie Anderson most especially, and the many extended friends and loved ones of Lou's who are and will be grieving the most, while undoubtedly celebrating his incredible life in the days and months to come. Our hearts are with you each and every one.
At the Center for the Art of Performance at UCLA we honor and acknowledge the life work of many esteemed artists, at various stages within their careers and within their evolving projects and ideas. It's in times like this that I can be grateful to know that our mission and purpose matters to many artists the world over, while at the same time I cannot help but feel overwhelmed at how much more we need to be doing to change the culture that supports the incredible possibility of greatness within artists so that they can thrive, contrive and inspire us all with what it means to be truly human in the bigness of our tiny world together.
I am struck in the media and press coverage surrounding the news of Lou Reed's passing, that there is a tremendous articulation of his impact and artistic output — credit authentically coming where credit is authentically due. Occasionally these testimonials are flavored with the mention of his work not garnering substantial "commercial success" (however deserved).
To which I can only really offer this — if the allure for artists to deeply excavate our human truths and give them form, was motivated by commercial success alone, the songlines of our heritage would be thin indeed. I ponder this duality often in my own role as an artistic director where I am requested to deftly straddle the active importance of putting a spotlight on the artistic integrity of artists and their art, with the pressure to deliver the somewhat more comforting nuances of assured familiarity and easily knowable outcomes on behalf of another kind of measurement of "success."
Instead, because of artists like Lou Reed, like Laurie Anderson, like their contemporaries, and the great many artists I have the deep pleasure of working with, not only are our songlines profoundly strengthened, but so too are the tools we have to bolster our awareness of what it means to be "AWAKE" in the world while we inhabit it.
So in honor of Lou Reed, and in service to our communities of artists – I feel compelled to simply say…thank you. Thank you, Lou for expanding the fence line of the familiar and allowing the creative terrain for our souls to wander well, regardless of ever being in full possession of a known outcome at the outset of your own path.

Whilst in China, asked on a Friday afternoon to plan a city expansion by next Monday, we sketched in Hubei province's capital Wuhan the masterplan for an extension to the nearby city of Macheng, situated where one of China's main north-south railway lines was destined to be crossed by a new main west-east railway line. Back in London the neat lines of a new masterplan was drawn up by our weekend team ready for email by Monday morning Chinese time.
The extension plan makes an interwoven overlay of new streets on existing man-made and natural features to make a tartan grid of different thoroughfare speeds, neighbourhood avenues and green spots, a connected string of park and play spaces with two grand commercial boulevards to focus connection between old Macheng to the east, its Jushui river to the south and its two new railway stations to the north and the west.

The importance of plain radiography in the evaluation of radiculopathy after failed diskectomy
Wesley H. Bronson, Steven M. Koehler, Sheeraz A. Qureshi, Andrew C. Hecht
Herniated disks in the lumbar spine are the leading cause of patient visits to spinal surgeons in the United States. Although magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the diagnostic test of choice in patients with a herniated disk, plain radiographs can provide important information and should remain a standard part of the diagnostic workup in any patient indicated for revision spine surgery. This article describes a case of a 36-year-old man with a >6-month history of worsening lumbar radiculopathy who was diagnosed with lumbar disk herniations on the basis of MRI alone and underwent 2 unsuccessful attempts at microdiskectomy at another institution. Further workup by the senior author (A.C.H.), which included initial plain radiographs followed by computed tomography, demonstrated a large disk herniation with a markedly calcified annulus as the continuing source of neurologic compression. The patient underwent revision lumbar decompression with attention being paid to the removal of the calcified annulus and disk material that resulted in complete resolution of his symptoms. Although MRI is the diagnostic test of choice in the evaluation of spinal pathology, plain radiographs can provide important additional information that can be vital to the successful outcome of patients undergoing revision spinal surgery.

Lionsgate, China's Hunan TV Negotiate $1.5 Billion Film Production Pact
The advanced discussions include combined investment in film production and distribution.

Lionsgate is making further inroads into China by being in advanced discussions with Hunan TV & Broadcast Intermediary Co. to invest a combined $1.5 billion in movie making over the next three years.
Reuters first reported on the talks with The Hunger Games producer and its Chinese partner, which came via a statement issued Wednesday by Hunan TV on the Shenzhen stock exchange.
The possible agreement, which also gets Hunan TV into the U.S. market through Lionsgate, includes film production and distribution.
Lionsgate last year partnered with Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba to launch a streaming service in China to distribute titles like Divergent and The Twilight Saga: Eclipse and TV shows such as Mad Men, Weeds and The Royals.
That deal was followed by reports that Mark Rachesky, whose 37.4 percent stake in Lionsgate in 2011 denied Carl Icahn a win in his proxy fight, was looking to sell his investment in the indie studio to Alibaba, which is led by chairman Jack Ma.
Hollywood's interest in China only grew when Michael Bay's robot tentpole Transformers: Age of Extinction did around $320 million worth of box office, a new record for a film in that market.
Jan. 28, 12:50 p.m. Updated to clarify the stage of current talks between Lionsgate and Hunan TV on a possible deal.

Should I Choose an Electric or Gasoline Pressure Washer?
In your quest for cleaner surfaces you have officially decided to purchase a pressure washer, the ultimate solution to the many challenging surfaces you may face! Now that you decided to purchase, the next question is, what type do you get? There are a few differences among the many brands of pressure washers, however, the most prevalent is the amount of power they produce.
As with any tool, there is a specific application for each. The amount of power produced by a pressure washer can be lumped into two general categories, industrial and residential. You can further break these categories down depending on your use intentions. Industrial pressure washers can be used on a daily basis, provide more power, and are very durable. Residential pressure washers are typically used less frequently, have slightly less power, and can be used on almost any surface without damaging anything.
You are most likely to purchase a residential type washer, which still leaves you with a few more questions to answer. The first question is usually, how much power do I need in a pressure washer? The amount of power you'll need depends on the type of surface you plan on cleaning and the length of time you intend to use the washer. So now your question should be, electric or gas pressure washer. As you may imagine a gas-powered pressure washer will produce more power than an electric, however, more power may not mean it's the best tool for the job. This is the fundamental difference when it comes to a washer, gas powered vs. electric powered.
Gas powered pressure washers are often long-lasting machines that produce the most power. Because they are built to handle highly pressurized water, the parts and components are made of durable metal and plastics. This construction allows the gas-powered washer to stand the test of time. A gas washer is highly portable and will give you a greater range of use, however, depending on your own physical strength this may be a limiting factor. A gas washer is heavier than an electric, so depending on whether or not you can lift it is what determines it's actual portability.
A gas-powered machine also lends itself to daily use, standing up to the tough jobs you have in store. This means it is a reliable tool for larger projects throughout the year. If you have heavily soiled surfaces that need cleaning a gas washer will power right though the dirt and grime! Gas washers can provide much more power which means it will make your job faster and easier. This power doesn't mean you can't use it on a more delicate surface, you'll just need to use the appropriate accessories and keep in mind the various washing techniques used in safe washing.
On the other hand, a gas pressure washer will dig a bit deeper into your wallet. Because of it's construction and overall power, a gas washer has a higher price tag. This should not deter you from making the purchase though, as it will most likely last longer than other types. Because a gas-powered pressure washer is powered by an internal combustion engine, you'll obviously have to maintain it as such. Keeping an eye on fuel and oil levels will need to become a part of your maintenance routine. Something you may not think of at the time of purchase is winterizing the engine. This will need to be done each winter or whenever the washer sits idle for an extended period of time. Winterizing the washer means you need to remove any water from inside, and add a fuel-stabilizer to the gas. This will ensure no damage is done by cold weather, and help your washer last longer. If you've seen a driver broken down on the side of the road, you know that engines are prone to break down once in a while. A gas-powered pressure washer is just as susceptible to breakdowns as a car, something to keep in mind when making your choice. Gas powered washers are very reliable, but you should know that a breakdown is a possibility.
An electric powered pressure washer can serve as an affordable and effective washing tool. Electric washers tend to cost less than gas washers, and be as effective as a gas-powered washer. These washers are ideal for intermittent use, and do very well when used on vehicles, patios, home siding, and other small projects. The majority of electric washers are light-weight, which lends them to easy use by a full range of operators.
If you live in a quiet neighborhood the last thing you want to do is disrupt the peace with a loud noise. The beauty of an electric washer is how quiet and non-invasive it is. The amount of noise pollution you'll emit is extremely minimal, something your neighbors will appreciate!
A few drawbacks of the electric pressure washer are primarily in relation to it's range of use. Manufacturers advise against using an extension cord with an electric washer, which limits your range when working around the house. If you want to pressure wash a fence, you'll be limited to using the nearest power source. Since these washers aren't built to handle extreme pressure they are usually constructed with various plastic parts. This means that they will wear out over time, so you may save money up-front but end up needing to purchase another in the coming years.
As you can see when it comes to a gas or electric pressure washer, each has its own distinct advantages and disadvantages. The best thing you can do when deciding which type to purchase is think of the projects you want to work on. From there your decision should become much easier.

Socialism: A short primer
FixGov
E.J. Dionne, Jr. and William A. Galston Monday, May 13, 2019
In this essay, E.J. Dionne, Jr. and Bill Galston give a primer on socialism in three parts: its definition, the age gap in perceptions of socialism among Americans, and how socialism evolved to social-democratic systems in the U.K. and Germany.
Something new is happening in American politics. Although most Americans continue to oppose socialism, it has reentered electoral politics and is enjoying an upsurge in public support unseen since the days of Eugene V. Debs. The three questions we will be focusing on are: Why has this happened? What does today's "democratic socialism" mean in contrast with past versions? And what are the political implications?

It's worth recalling how important socialism once was at the ballot box to understand that this tradition has deeper roots in our history than many imagine. In the 1912 presidential election, Debs secured six percent of the popular vote, and Socialists held 1,200 offices in 340 cities, their ranks including 79 mayors. Socialism declined after this peak and faced repression during World War I because of the party's opposition to the war. (Debs secured almost a million votes in the 1920 presidential election, running from a jail cell). After the war ended, the Communist seizure of power in what became the Soviet Union contributed to a "red scare" that further weakened America's indigenous socialist tradition.
Socialism never lost its intellectual influence, however. The New Deal drew on proposals pioneered by socialists, and it was a young socialist named Michael Harrington whose book The Other America helped launch the war on poverty. But when it came to electoral politics, socialism was largely shunned or irrelevant.
Until now. The crash of 2008, rising inequality, and an intensifying critique of how contemporary capitalism works has brought socialism back into the mainstream—in some ways even more powerfully than in Debs' time, since those who use the label have become an influential force in the Democratic Party. Running as a democratic socialist, Sen. Bernie Sanders received 45 percent of the Democratic primary vote in 2016, and in the 2018 mid-term elections, members of Democratic Socialists of America were among the prominent Democratic victors. Their ranks included Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who quickly became one of the country's best-known politicians. One measure of her influence: As of early May, Senate Democratic Leader Charles Schumer had 1.7 million Twitter followers; House Speaker Nancy Pelosi had 2.5 million; Ocasio-Cortez had 4 million.
The generational divide
Although President Donald Trump declared war on socialism in his 2019 State of the Union address, its champions felt no pressure to back down. It is not hard to see why.

During the heyday of the industrial era, growth was rapid, its fruits were broadly shared across income and wage classes, and upward mobility was widespread. Capitalism was popular. Socialism was not. In recent decades, however, growth has been episodic and slow, wages have stagnated for working-class and many middle-class families, mobility has slowed, and inequality has soared. The economic and financial collapse of 2008-2009 undermined the claim that the economy had entered a new era of stability and moderation. Experts who had preached the virtues of self-regulation were forced to recant. The slow recovery from the Great Recession left many Americans wondering whether they would ever regain the income and wealth they had lost.
The Great Recession especially shaped the outlook of young adults. The younger working class entered a job market that provided far fewer stable opportunities than their parents had enjoyed. And as revenues fell, many state governments slashed public support for higher education, forcing public colleges and universities to raise tuition sharply. Students had to abandon college hopes or take out larger loans that that consumed a substantial portion of their incomes. And particularly in the years immediately after the crash, many of them had trouble finding the jobs their degrees once promised. As the profits and share prices of large corporations recovered from their recessionary lows, enriching executives and investors, many young adults began wondering whether they would ever share the fruits of 21st century capitalism. They became increasingly open to the idea that the system was rigged against them and that incremental reform was not enough. Only transformational systemic change could get the job done, many concluded, and socialism was the available alternative to the failed "neo-liberal" model of contemporary capitalism.
The generational effect is dramatic. A 2018 YouGov survey found that 35 percent of young adults under 30 were very or somewhat favorably inclined toward socialism, while just 26 percent registered unfavorable sentiments. (40 percent were not sure.) By contrast, only 25 percent of voters 65 and older had favorable views of socialism, while 56 percent were unfavorable.

Competing definitions of socialism
The growing popularity of socialism reflects a change in its image. Viewed in the past under the dark shadow of the Soviet system, it is now seen in light of the achievements of social democratic governments in Scandinavia and elsewhere in Europe.
In 2018, the Public Religion Research Institute offered respondents two definitions of socialism. One described it as "a system of government that provides citizens with health insurance, retirement support, and access to free higher education." The other characterized it as "a system where the government controls key parts of the economy, such as utilities, transportation and communications industries." The first definition effectively refers to the Scandinavian model—and the ideas popularized by Sanders. Most proponents of social democracy see it as a way of smoothing capitalism's rough edges, making it more humane, egalitarian, and protective, rather than replacing the market outright. The second definition corresponds to the classic understanding of socialism that dominated public consciousness after World War II, when the challenge from the Soviet Union was at its peak.
As one might expect, young adults, for whom Cold War memories are dim to non-existent, were strongly inclined to define socialism as social democracy rather than public ownership of key industries. Fifty-eight percent of them picked the social-democratic option, and just 38 percent the dominant post-war understanding. By contrast, Americans 65 and older, whose views of socialism reflected the post-war conflict with communism, were somewhat more inclined to focus on government control of the economy, although even the oldest Americans now tilt toward the social-democratic definition, too.
Other survey research confirms this shift. In 1949, the Gallup Organization probed Americans' understanding of the term "socialism." More Americans picked government ownership or control as socialism's defining feature than all the other options combined. Almost seven decades later in 2018, Gallup posed the same question, with very different results. The share of respondents who focused on government control fell by half, to just 17 percent. By contrast, the share who emphasized egalitarianism and generous public services rose from 14 percent in 1949 to 33 percent in 2018.

In the post-war period, Americans viewed socialism through the prism of Soviet communism. Today, they view it through the prism of the welfare state.
In the post-war period, Americans viewed socialism through the prism of Soviet communism. Today, they view it through the prism of the welfare state, the system that Western democracies developed to make market economies more broadly acceptable and to blunt the appeal of communism, which had powerful support throughout Europe in the post-war decades. The Soviet Union threatened liberty. Norway, Sweden and Denmark do not.
There was an important distinction, however, between Soviet-style communism and the system that socialist parties advocated after World War II. The Soviet system was undemocratic and totalitarian. The state (that is, the Communist party) controlled not only the entire economy but also civil society. As a "vanguard" party, the CPSU claimed to represent, infallibly, the "real interests" of the working class, even though average citizens of the Soviet Union might well disagree with the party's "line" at any given moment.
By contrast, the program of Western socialist parties was both democratic and non-totalitarian. Western socialists acknowledged the importance of the individual liberties that Communists dismissed as "bourgeois." These parties distinguished between the parts of the economy that needed to be brought under public control and those that did not. In the main, they did not seek government control of civil society, and they were willing to submit to the electorate's democratic verdict on an ongoing basis.
From socialism to social democracy
The post-war British Labour Party offers a vivid example of democratic socialism in action—and also of the transition from state ownership to greater equality as socialism's core goal. As World War II neared its end in the summer of 1945, the United Kingdom held its first general election in nearly a decade. The Labour Party campaigned on a bold program of economic and social change. "The Labour Party is a Socialist Party, and proud of it," declared its election manifesto. "Its ultimate purpose . . . is the establishment of the Socialist Commonwealth of Great Britain."
The manifesto was serious, even literal, in its choice of the noun "commonwealth." The key assumption was that everything in the U.K.—not just land and natural resources, but also productive facilities and wealth—should be seen as jointly owned by the people as a whole and could be directed to purposes determined by the people through democratic processes.
Not content with ringing generalities, the manifesto spelled out its socialist program in considerable detail. It called for public ownership of the fuel and power industries, the iron and steel industries, and all modes of domestic transportation (rail, road, air, and canal). Other key provisions included the nationalization of the Bank of England, eventual nationalization of land holdings, a National Investment Board to plan and shape public and private investment, and a government-funded and operated National Health Service.

One other theme suffuses the manifesto—the proposition that building socialism is akin to the wartime mobilization that directed all the nation's energies toward a single overriding goal. "The nation and its post-war Governments will be called upon to put the nation above any sectional interest, above any free enterprise," the manifesto asserts. "The problems and pressures of the post-war world threaten our security and progress as sure as—though less dramatically than—the Germans threatened them in 1940. We need the spirit of Dunkirk and of the Blitz sustained over a period of years."
This said, the Labour Party's version of socialism was entirely consistent with the British system of individual liberty and parliamentary democracy. The manifesto goes out of its way to underscore Labour's commitment to freedom of worship, speech, and the press. It rejected the proposition that wartime restrictions on individual liberties should carry over into peacetime. The Labour Party won power peacefully and democratically in the 1945 parliamentary election and when Labour lost the subsequent election, it yielded power to the victorious conservatives.
In many respects, the Labour Party's postwar program represented a high-water mark for democratic socialism.
In many respects, the Labour Party's postwar program represented a high-water mark for democratic socialism. Beginning in the 1950s, after they lost power, Labour leaders deemphasized, without formally repudiating, the aspects of their program that focused on nationalization of key industries. The 13 years of Conservative government between 1951 and 1964 saw the rise of Labor's "revisionists," who moved the party away from the nationalization of industry as a central goal. In his seminal book, "The Future of Socialism," Anthony Crosland, a major figure in the party, argued that a focus on nationalization confused means and ends and that the purpose of socialism was greater equality, not government ownership of industry. The party's leader in the period, Hugh Gaitskell, was a revisionist who regularly battled with the party's left. And when Harold Wilson led Labor back to power in 1964, he stressed the power of technological change to transform society and the promise of the "white heat" of the "scientific revolution." It was a long way from taking over the coal mines.
In Germany, the transformation of democratic socialism was formal and explicit. As late as the mid-1950s, Germany's Socialist Party (the SPD) continued to espouse classic socialist ideology. A key SPD leader declared that the crucial point of the party's agenda was "the abolition of capitalist exploitation and the transfer of the means of production from the control of the big proprietors to social ownership." But after a series of electoral defeats at the hands of a center-right Christian Democratic Union (CDU) that itself supported a significant welfare state, the SPD came to understand that its post-war program had been outrun by events. Rapid economic growth based on private property and regulated markets during the 1950s had sparked the emergence of a new middle class and rendered obsolete an economic program centered on nationalization of key industries. The Soviet Union was a threat to social and political freedom, not an economic model to be emulated.
The SPD's famous Bad Godesberg Program, adopted in November 1959, represented a fundamental change of course. It castigated Soviet Communism and repudiated Marxism. The proletariat was no longer the sole engine of progress; the SPD had changed from being a "party of the working class" to a "party of the people." Henceforth, democracy, freedom, equality, and the fullest possible development of each individual would be the guiding principles.
The Program defined the social function of the state as "provid[ing] social security for its citizens to enable everyone to be responsible for shaping his own life freely and to further the development of a free society." While achieving this aim would require substantial government regulation, it would not necessitate government ownership except in the rare cases in which "sound economic power relationships" could not be guaranteed by any other means.
The new economic vision rested on freedom—"free choice of consumer goods, free choice of working place, freedom for employers to exercise their initiative as well as free competition." Where excessive concentration restricted competition, government must intervene to restore competition. The task of a freedom-based economic policy was to contain the power of big business, not to replace the private sector. In some instances, they suggested that what we would now call a "public option" could be used to broaden choices for consumers and diminish corporate power. But in a remarkable break with socialist orthodoxy, the Program stressed that "every concentration of economic power, even in the hands of the state, harbors dangers." Widespread government ownership of the means of production is not always the solution; it may be part of the problem.
The Program focused, not on government taking control of the economy, but on using government to improve the lives of all citizens.
The Program focused, not on government taking control of the economy, but on using government to improve the lives of all citizens. Key planks included full employment, generous wages and shorter working days, a redistributive system of taxation, secure retirement with a state-guaranteed minimum pension, universal access to health care, and decent and affordable housing. These are among the building blocks of the system of "social democracy" that developed and spread throughout the West as the alternative to both socialism and unregulated capitalism. As scholar Sheri Berman puts it, "Capitalism remained, but it was a capitalism of a very different type—one tempered and limited by political power and often made subservient to the needs of society rather than the other way around."
From social democracy to the Third Way
Although social democracy came to represent the dominant political program in most democracies, its triumph was short-lived. Starting in the late 1970s, conservative leaders who challenged key tenets of social democracy scored electoral victories in the U.K., U.S., Germany, and elsewhere. They argued that excessive government intervention and spending had slowed economic growth, impeded innovation, and promoted inflation. Moreover, excessive deference to organized labor had reduced private sector profits and investments, while the pursuit of equal outcomes had deprived the "job creators" of needed incentives to take risks. Government was not the solution for the problems of capitalism, the new conservative wisdom held, but rather the principal obstacle to the success of a market economy. Industries had to be deregulated; spending on programs of social protections had to be curtailed; taxes had to be slashed; and unions needed to be brought to heel.
The political success of conservative policies persuaded many center-left leaders that their social democratic programs needed to adjust to new circumstances. As this movement gathered strength, the fall of the Berlin Wall and the collapse of the Soviet Union transformed the political situation. It seemed that every alternative to capitalism had faded. The future lay in a dynamic and increasingly global market economy with the fewest possible fetters on the free flow of capital, goods, services, workers, and information. Appropriate fiscal, trade, investment, immigration, and education policies would enable Western democracies to seize the commanding heights of the new economy. The future for workers lay in lifetime education and training, not in organized labor's efforts to thwart needed change. Regulations that impeded efficiency in key sectors such as banking needed to be swept away. Competition would promote "self-regulation" as an alternative to the heavy hand of the state. Programs to promote economic and retirement security were acceptable—as long as they did not break the bank, raise interest rates, and squeeze out private investment.
Led by key figures such as Bill Clinton in the United States, Tony Blair in the U.K., and Gerhardt Schroeder in Germany, this new economic vision—dubbed the Third Way by its friends and neo-liberalism by its foes—guided changes in center-left parties. As long as the new economy delivered ample jobs and broad-based income gains, center-left parties enjoyed political success. But the financial crisis of 2008 and the ensuing severe global recession undermined public confidence in the institutions and policies that permitted the disaster. On the Right, populist forces began to stir. (In retrospect, the Tea Party was a harbinger of things to come.) On the Left, the failure of post-Cold War globalized capitalism opened the door to critics of the status quo. Occupy Wall Street targeted the "1 percent"—the wealthy elites whose greed and myopia, they said, triggered the crisis and left those of lesser means to suffer the losses and pay the costs.
By 2016, right-wing populism had taken over the previously center-right Republican Party in the U.S., while Sanders gave Hillary Clinton, the establishment center-left candidate, a surprisingly tough race. Throughout Europe, traditional center-left and center-right parties suffered heavy losses while both right-wing populists and far-left parties gained support. In the U.S., U.K., and elsewhere, insurgents have rejected what they see as the Third Way's objectionable and ineffective compromises with conservative principles and programs. It is against this historical backdrop that young adults in America embraced programs that promised more than incremental change—and that they were not afraid to call themselves socialists.
Medicare and Social Security are, in a sense, socialist, and so are our public schools and universities, our community colleges, our water supplies and sewers, and our mass transit systems.
There has always been a gap between rhetoric and reality in discussions of (and, especially, attacks on) socialism. Not one economically advanced society can be described as purely capitalist; every one of them is a mixed economy that includes some elements of socialism. Medicare and Social Security are, in a sense, socialist, and so are our public schools and universities, our community colleges, our water supplies and sewers, and our mass transit systems. Municipally owned and built sports stadiums are forms of socialism. North Dakota still has a publicly-owned bank, created during the years when agrarian populism and socialism overlapped. The Tennessee Valley Authority is a form of socialism, as conservatives never tire of pointing out.
Ideas rooted in socialism have often been deployed to save capitalism from its excesses—usually in the face of opposition from capitalists themselves. The political scientist Mason Williams points to a comment from New Deal lawyer Jerome Frank as capturing this history nicely. "We socialists are trying to save capitalism," Frank said, "and the damned capitalists won't let us."
And from Franklin Roosevelt to Barack Obama, conservatives have made it a point to charge their Democratic foes with being socialists, no matter how many speeches they made in praise of the market. In attacking the program of his erstwhile friend FDR, Al Smith declared: "There can be only one national anthem, the Star Spangled Banner or the Internationale." In the 1950 mid-term elections, Republicans briefly used the slogan "Liberty versus socialism." (It turned out not to test very well.) Ronald Reagan's 1964 speech on behalf of Barry Goldwater that made The Gipper a hero to conservatives argued that Goldwater's victory over Lyndon Johnson was necessary to stop the advance of socialism. And, of course, Barack Obama's health care plan, which was a very long way from a single payer system, was regularly denounced as socialist.
For the most part, Democratic politicians have regularly denied they were socialists—and even in this campaign cycle, marked by socialism's resurgence, most Democrats earnestly pronounce themselves capitalists. The ranks of proud capitalists include Elizabeth Warren, who is by most measures as progressive as Sanders and has issued even more comprehensive proposals than he has to restructure contemporary capitalism. The fact that Sanders calls himself a socialist and Warren does not suggests that socialist/capitalist divide tells us less about policy than we might think and more about the valence assigned to the labels by different parts of the electorate.
With the collapse of the Soviet Union, the term socialism has lost its once-automatic linkage to the United States' mortal enemy. The embrace of socialism no longer incurs the taint of treason, and proposals advanced by avowed socialists have expanded the perimeter of acceptable debate. As recent comments on the imperiled future of capitalism by Jamie Dimon, the CEO of JPMorgan Chase & Co, and Ray Dalio of Bridgewater Associates suggest, the sharper critiques of capitalism are gaining attention from capitalists themselves. In the past—from the New Deal years through the 1960s—fears for the system's future have led important voices within the business world to embrace social reform as necessary to saving the system. Socialists might once again be the forerunners of capitalist reform.
There are three bottom lines here. The first is that attitudes toward socialism now divide the two parties. In a 2018 YouGov survey, 46 percent of Democrats had a somewhat or very favorable view of socialism, while only 25 percent held an unfavorable view. Among Republicans, only 11 percent viewed socialism favorably, while 71 percent viewed it unfavorably—including 61 percent who had a "very" unfavorable view. Tellingly, the breakdown among Independents was 19 percent favorable, 40 percent unfavorable. Among Americans who voted for Hillary Clinton, 53 percent of had a favorable opinion of socialism, a view held by just 7 percent of Trump voters.
Second, sympathy for socialism is still a minority view. In the YouGov survey, overall, socialism was viewed favorably by only 26 percent of American adults and unfavorably by 46 percent. Among registered voters, the breakdown was 30 percent favorable, 50 percent unfavorable. As Warren's self-labeling shows, most politicians trying to win national elections will continue to resist the S-word. If socialism is more popular than ever, it is still, on net, a troublesome word for a large share of the electorate. But whatever it is called, the impulse to use public power to smooth the market economy's rough edges and to enhance opportunity and security for all Americans is a powerful current in today's post-Great Recession politics.

Favorable 46 19 11 53 7
Unfavorable 25 40 71 24 83
Not sure 28 41 18 22 10
Third, decades of rising inequality and the shock of the 2008 crash have led large numbers of Americans —whether they call themselves socialists or not— to call the fundamentals of our economic system into question. The resurgence of socialism is a warning sign for those who want to preserve this system and an opportunity for those who would reform it. And, as has happened before, their two causes may come to overlap.

Defense a family affair for Veterans Memorial defensive line

Peter L. Scamardo II, Corpus Christi Caller Times Published 6:00 a.m. CT Nov. 27, 2019
After forming a tight knit bond over two seasons together, Veterans Memorial's defensive line is making havoc a family affair. Wochit
When opposing offenses look across at the Veterans Memorial defensive line, they see a group intent on wreaking havoc, but that was not always the case.
When defensive line coach James Villarreal accepted the position at Veterans Memorial in 2018, he took on a defensive line group that had lost almost all of its starters.
Demetrius Ortiz and Daylan Pena had never started and MJ Rodriguez had never played football before, Villarreal said. Anthony "Big T" Guerrero was the only returning starter.
Villarreal set about building a relationship with his players.
Right from the start Villarreal was able to work with the defensive line individually on practice. Head coach Cody Simper gave Villarreal the time knowing that they had to build up a young group of players. That extra time has formed a familial bond between the coach and his players.
"I got those guys when they were very raw and they've just done a great job of growing up and taking coaching," Villarreal said. "I'm very blessed with a special group of guys. I know that."

Over the past two seasons the Eagles D-line has shown an ability to shut down opposing offenses but also find a way to make stops late in tight contests and preserve victories.
That close bond they have can be attributed directly to Villarreal, who has gone out of his way to introduce the players to his family and to hold team dinners for the unit as a way for them to bond outside of football.

— James Villarreal (@Coach_V_) November 14, 2019
"When you do that, players see you as a person and not just a coach screaming and yelling at them," Villarreal said. "It enables me to coach them hard, it enables me to be able to explain exactly what we're doing and then for them to execute because they really care, they care for each other."
The defensive line has a motto "Love what you do, love where you do it and love who you do it with."
"It's not hard with these guys to build that relationship," Rodriguez said. "Everyone's so easy going and fun to get along with. We look forward to those team dinners, those D-line dinners, we can't wait to get with everybody and just have a good time."

Natural competitors
It might be odd to see two Division I baseball commits lining up on defense — Rodriguez has signed with Oklahoma State and Peña has verbally committed to Texas State — but the fact many of the defensive linemen are multi-sport athletes mean they step onto the gridiron with a natural drive to compete.
Villarreal admits that he does not give pre-game speeches to get his players going, if anything he has to calm them down because of how motivated they are.
"Most of the guys are my brothers, we're tight," Peña said. "We know that we're going to have a crowd, we know there's going to be people watching so we go out and give it our best."
Strong defense has been a reflection of Veterans Memorial football the last two years. This season alone the Eagles have held opponents to less than 10 points four times this season. Veterans Memorial came up short on their quest for a second straight district title but are back in the regional semifinals for the third straight year.

This time is different as the Eagles get to play Miller in a rematch of their 50-43 double overtime loss from earlier in the year.
In that game the Eagles defense got off to one of their hottest starts of the year, shutting down Miller's explosive offense and helped the Eagles jump out to a 23-0 first quarter lead.
In fact it took two defensive scores on Miller's part to help get momentum back on the side of the Buccaneers and help them pull out the win. Now the Eagles have a chance at revenge.
"We're in a good situation and you don't really get those situations, to get a team that you lost to during the season," Guerrero said. "We're just going to have to play hard, get stops on the field and play good defense. Swarm to the ball and hopefully we should come out with the win."
Their focus the first time against Miller was to get stops and nothing has changed, Villarreal said. The goal is to get stops and get Miller's offense of the field. The defensive linemen are of the same mind that if they all do their job and play their hearts out, they will come out on top.
One last go round
Regardless of whoever comes out on top on Friday, eventually this group of defensive linemen will have to hang up their cleats. For seniors such as Guerrero and Rodriguez, they all still have one more baseball season together but will miss the brotherly bond they have formed.
Juniors such as Peña will return to the D-line but admits his teammates will be missed.
"They've been here for me since my sophomore year," Peña said. "They were there for me, they helped me through some stuff. Just not being able to play with them next year, not being able to look to my left and right and see them, it's going to suck but they're my brothers and we've got some work to do."
At the very least this group has one more game together and they are intent on wrecking havoc to get one more chance to play with their teammates.

Anyone here speak Arabic? Arabic-speaking Muslims, Arab Christians, Halp!
I don't have the Arabic handy, because I only have a translation (it's medieval Arabic from Ibn al-Qutiya's Ta'rikh Iftitah al-Andalus). Artabas says to al-Sumayl (an illiterate) "Truly God has honored you - you have status and power. I only honored that man (Maymun al-abid) for the sake of God Most High! The Messiah - peace and praises be upon Him - has told us: Whoever of God's servants has been honoured by Him, should honour all his fellow men."
Now, the Messiah refers to Jesus, but I'm wondering if the italicized portion is a reference to Islam's conception of Jesus and comes from the Qur'an or if this comes from Arabized Christianity in al-Andalus. I feel like it has to be the former, but I want to double check.

Britain's oldest William Shakespeare launches Shakespearean performances for Easter holidaymakers
Created: 22nd Apr 2014
Britain's oldest living William Shakespeare on Wednesday 16 April supported a campaign at Bristol Airport to create an official day for his namesake.
1 year William Shakespeare, from Bristol, joined easyJet and a troop of Shakespearean actors as they staged free performances of the Bard's most famous work for passengers setting off on their Easter holidays.
The theatrical performances are part of a nationwide campaign launched by easyJet to recognise 23 April as National William Shakespeare Day. The airline has staged free Shakespearean performances at airports across the UK this week to help garner the 100,000 signatures required to take the debate to parliament.
Bristol's very own William Shakespeare also joined easyJet at the launch of the campaign where he unveiled a special edition aircraft with a ten foot image of the playwright on the fuselage.
William Shakespeare from Bristol, said: "It is such an honour to be chosen to launch this campaign to recognise my namesake. All my life I have been proud to share my name with such an iconic British figure and I think it is important we recognise his achievements with an official day in the calendar."
Heritage and culture remain one of the key drivers of tourism to the UK (Visit Britain report) and this 23 April – the 450th anniversary of Shakespeare's birth – easyJet will stage a performance of his complete works onboard a flight to Verona.
Paul Moore, Communications Director for easyJet said:"William Shakespeare is Britain's most famous author so easyJet is proud to back the bid to make 23 April his national day. We are asking our UK passengers to sign the petition while suggesting to those from the rest of Europe that they visit the land of Shakespeare to learn more about him and see his works performed.
"Our campaign will run during April in our in-flight magazine read by 5 million passengers a month, across thousands of seat back adverts and we will be staging free Shakespearean performances at airports across the UK."
Nadhim Zahawi, MP for Stratford-upon-Avon said:
"Is it a Bard, is it a plane? William Shakespeare is one of Britain's greatest gifts to the world, 'he was not of an age, but for all time', and I have long argued this sceptre'd isle should celebrate April 23 as a national holiday. I'm delighted that easyJet have chosen to campaign on this issue."

This is a review of most frequently asked questions, so please have a look here first and see if there is an answer to your question before going in the help channels and asking.
Undernet provides a chat environment for many people. Around a million users connect to the Undernet in a week's time, so you will probably have your share of lamers. Here are some few tips on protecting your channel, and yourself, from their attacks. As a general rule, be polite to your fellow chatters while on IRC. Show decency and respect, and you will get the same in return.
You may want to take a look at the "User and Channel modes" section of the FAQ, for reference on the modes being mentioned in what follows.
A drone is a trojan which makes a computer connect to IRC without the knowledge and approval of the owner of that computer. They can usually be identified from using the same nick/ident/real name.
A bot is defined as any type of autonomous software that operates as an agent for a user or a program or simulates a human activity. In short, it is an automated computer program.
If your channel is being flooded by a large number of bots or drones, they will usually join, message the channel, part, change nicks etc, and you will have little chance of keeping them out by simple bans.
This way, the drones won't be able to join, but the bad part is that no one else will be able to join either, if you do not invite them one by one.
Flood bots don't log in to X, so this keeps them out, but it will also keep out people that are not registeredto X or who haven't registered usernames. But this channel mode is effective against flood bots, and it should be regarded as a long-term decision, longer than the +i anyway.
It is possible that someone uses the bots or drones that they command to attack you directly, and not the channels that you are in. In this case, they command their bots/drones to send you private messages, notices, CTCP requests etc, causing you to connect from so much traffic.
Visit http://www.ripe.net/db/whois/whois.html and type the IP there.
You should get information, including abuse email addresses, to which you can send an email and make your complaint.

Matilda Ledger Age Now 2021, Net worth, Godfather ( Heath Daughter )
Name Matilda Ledger (Also known as : Matilda Rose)
Birthday / Date of Birth / How old is Matilda Ledger Age October 28, 2005. As of 2021, she is around 16 years old.
Wikipedia / Biography Information
Matilda Rose Ledger is the only daughter of deceased Australian actor-director Heath Ledger and American actress Michelle Williams.
Personal Life, Parents & Family Background :
Matilda was born on October 28, 2005, in New York City.
Her parents met during the filming of Brokeback Mountain in 2004, in which they both won their first Oscars.
Her grandparents are Kim Ledger and Sally Ledger Bell from the paternal side, Larry R. Williams and Carla Ingrid Williams from the maternal side.
Her grandparents in Australia call her "the little New Yorker" and don't get to see her as much as they liked. This is due to Michelle's lifestyle as an actress and as the benefactor for the Heath Ledger Scholarship in Australia.
Godparents : Jake Gyllenhaal is her godfather and Busy Philipps is her godmother.
She currently lives with her mother in Brooklyn and attends school there.
Heath's Death & Private Life :
There were reports of Heath and Michelle separating four months, before he passed away in September 2007.
Matilda was only 2 years of age when her father accidentally overdosed and died.
Since Heath's death, Matilda and her mother naturally became the centre of attention for the media.
Michelle went to great lengths to try and avoid publicity so as to give Matilda a quiet and normal life. She praised Kirsten Bell for her help in shutting down several media outlets publishing unauthorised photos of celebrities' children, which included Matilda.
Michelle's Key Role in Bringing up Matilda :
Michelle had several but short-lived relationships since her late husband's passing.
Some of her ex-boyfriends include Jason Segel, Spike Jonze and Jonathan Safran-Foer.
This is due to her strong focus on providing for her daughter welfare, which she claims will be made more difficult by having relationships. She said, I would be able to go totally down that line of thinking were it not for Matilda not having her dad.
Michelle finds comfort in her daughter whenever she misses Heath. In the few months after his death, her resemblance to Heath was a source of sadness and grief, but later became a fount of joy and pride for Michelle.
Matilda's aunt, Kate Ledger (Heath's sister) praises her mother for raising her as a single working mother.
The documentary I Am Heath Ledger was a tribute to Matilda's late father, as well as a gift for her about her dad from everyone involved, to get to know him better.
Trivia & Interesting Facts :
Matilda is said to have a split image of her father and is often linked to the memory of Heath. Her grandparents expressed that she has his energy and curiosity, just as Heath was at that age.
She has her late father's deep almond-shaped eyes and wide jawline.
Matilda has a keen interest in animals & owns a cat, a dog and a fish.

Staying in a hostel is not only cheap, but it's also a great opportunity to meet other young people and have the time of your life, especially if you're traveling alone.
Have you considered this as an option? As a twenty-something-year-old, chances are you haven't settled in one place yet, and what better way to explore a new city than to live and work in it.
Have a spare room at your home? You may want to list it on Couchsurfing and, in turn, be a guest at other people's homes around the world.

In the last article, we set up a site you could use to hold files, manage tasks and notes, and even do some light word processing. The solution we used, FengOffice, is also capable of managing your e-mail (not unlike GMail) and doing some simple spreadsheet work, although the latter currently has some trade-offs.
Before you start reading, it's worth noting that if you want to use spreadsheets, you'll need to install GelSheet. GelSheet comes pre-packaged with FengOffice, although it's a couple of versions back (v1.7.2 to be exact—the "Administration > Upgrade" option gives you the ability to move up to v1.7.5, but don't do this, you'll lose your ability to create spreadsheets). So if you want the spreadsheet functionality, you'll need to export any files you have in FengOffice and re-import them into the GelSheet installation.
In the last article, I elected to leave the "Mail" component out of the installation. Well, I've come to find that there is no way to re-run the installation to add this functionality after the fact. So if you chose to leave that component checked during your install, congratulations, you're way more forward thinking than I am! If you followed my advice, like me, you'll have to re-install FengOffice (and remember to leave "Mail" checked). Make sure to export any documents you've created if you do need to reinstall.
When you log in, you'll see an "Email" tab on your Dashboard.
1. First, click on the "Email" tab from the main screen.
3. You'll be presented with a screen to fill in details to your account: your username, password, the incoming server (including its port number and whether security should be used or not), its connection method (use IMAP here if your server supports it), and outgoing server (including port number and security) are the important things to fill in here. When you have these filled in, click the "Add Email Account" at the bottom of the page.
4. Once your account is added, you'll see… an empty inbox. Click the "Check mails" button and see what happens.
5. If you don't get any new mails, and you should have it may be because you selected IMAP as your connection method. You may need to subscribe to some or all of the folders in your e-mail account before you can get mail from them. From the "Accounts" pull-down, select "Edit Account," then select the account you just added. Scroll down to the "Incoming Settings" section, and you'll see a list called "Folders to Check," and select all the ones you want to get mail from. Don't forget to click the "Save changes" button at the bottom.
6. Click "Check mails" again, and you should see the mail from your account come in. When you make changes, such as deleting mails, you should see this reflected in your account after you click "Check mails" again (which for IMAP actually means a complete synchronization with your account—even though this is a web-based solution, it works like an offline mail client in this regard).
If you remained on the v1.7.2 of FengOffice that came along with GelSheet, you'll find the "New" drop-down on the "Documents" tab has an option for "Spreadsheet." This has limited functionality (you can't copy and paste formulas, for example), but if you use spreadsheets more for list management, you'll be happy to know you can export to OpenDocument Spreadsheet or Excel, although there are some issues as this is still in beta.
GelSheet and FengOffice may not be as polished or complete in functionality, but on the other hand, they don't rely on you keeping your precious data on another company's servers. You still can have anytime, anywhere access to your information, and also keep it on your own computer where it belongs.

BDB561404
CD90.1 Mouse, PE-Cy7, Clone: OX-7 (also known as OX7), BD
Manufacturer: BD Biosciences 561404
Catalog No. BDB561404
CD90 (Thy-1) is a GPI-anchored membrane glycoprotein of the Ig superfamily which is involved in signal transduction. The OX-7 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to rat CD90 reported to be expressed by hematopoietic stem cells, early myeloid and erythroid cells, immature B lymphocytes in the bone marrow and peripheral lymphoid organs, thymocytes, recent thymic emigrants (a subset of CD45RC- peripheral T lymphocytes), neurons, glomerular mesangial cells, endothelium at inflammatory sites, mast cells, and dendritic cells. Rat dendritic epidermal T cells (DEC) have been reported to be CD90 (Thy-1) negative, unlike those of the mouse.
The OX-7 clone has been reported to crossreact with the mouse CD90.1 (Thy-1.1) alloantigen of the AKR/J and PL strains, but not CD90.2 (Thy-1.2) found on many mouse strains. In the mouse, CD90 is found on thymocytes, most peripheral T lymphocytes, some intraepithelial T lymphocytes (IEL, DEC), hematopoietic stem cells, and neurons, but not B lymphocytes. In addition, there is evidence that CD90 mediates adhesion of mouse thymocytes to mouse thymic stroma. The OX-7 clone has also been reported to crossreact with rabbit and guinea pig thymus, brain, and intestine.
Antigen CD90.1
Clone OX-7 (also known as OX7)
Conjugate PE-Cyanine7
Formulation Aqueous buffered solution containing ≤0.09% sodium azide.
Isotype IgG1, κ
Target Species Guinea Pig, Murine, Rabbit, Rat
Description Rat Thy-1; Mouse Thy-1.1
Format Affinity Purified
Immunogen Rat Thymocyte Thy-1 Antigen
Quantity 50μg
Storage Requirements Store undiluted at 4°C and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze.

Sam Claflin Opens Up About Finnick Odair Casting Backlash For "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire"
MoviesThe Hunger Games
By Siyana Riley	 On Aug 21, 2013
Sam Claflin has had a few blockbusters under his belt, but getting cast as Finnick Odair in 'The Hunger Games: Catching Fire' was a different ballgame. Finnick is many Hunger Games fans' favorite character, and his casting was feverishly debated within online forums and communities months before Claflin was cast.
Of course, Claflin doesn't exactly look like the Finnick described on page, but he seems to have worked hard to achieve the look for the film. In an interview with Elle, he says the initial backlash actually made him more motivated, explaining, "It helped push me forward and motivate me to work harder. I was reading so many stories about people being unhappy that I got the role—and don't get me wrong, I don't sit here Googling myself 24/7—but I think part of me was eager to learn what I needed to do in order to become the Finnick the fans needed me to be. The negative comments made that easier to know what their expectations of me were."
He adds that he's seen bits of the film already, and that 'people will be blown away'.
Catching Fire releases worldwide on November 22nd.

Q: run linux command asynchronously with callback in c++ I am trying to write a c++ program that will run linux commands asynchronously and register a call back for the return values of the linux command. what I exactly want is to write a utility function to which I will pass two parameter one is linux command and other one is callback.
when We call this utility function, it should not block the program and continue the execution of program. but once the linux commands executed it will invoke the callback that we pass as second parameter.
I have tried c++ system() function. and have tried boost.process headers to run
the linux commands. but they are all blocking way of calling linux calls.from c++.
I am new to to this type of async + callback register type of programming.
The program should exactly look like the one I have tried in node.js programs that I use in my node.js programs. which works very well for me the link that I follow for this is http://www.dzone.com/snippets/execute-unix-command-nodejs
Please help me to get this done in c++. what improvements i need to do in c++ system call that run perfectly for me but is blocking. or do we have some direct facility available in C++ or boost library.
NOTE: I am using g++ 4.3 compiler. it is not C++0x or C++11.
Thanks,
Abhishek

A: It's not quite clear what you want to do, but here's some C++11 code that I think would do the trick:
#include <thread>
#include <future>
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
#include <type_traits>

void system(const std::string& s)
{ std::cout << "Executing system with argument '" << s << "'\n"; }

// asynchronously (1) invoke cmd as system command and (2) callback.
// return future for (1) and (2) to caller
template<typename F>
std::future<typename std::result_of<F()>::type>
runCmd(const std::string& cmd, F callback)
{
  auto cmdLambda = [cmd] { system(cmd); };
  auto fut = std::async(std::launch::async,
                        [cmdLambda, callback] { cmdLambda(); return callback(); });
  return fut;
}

int main()
{
  auto fut = runCmd("ls", []{ std::cout << "Executing callback\n"; });
  fut.get();
}

For C++98, you could use Boost.Threads for futures and async, and you could use Boost.Bind to replace the lambdas.
This should at least get you started.
