Q: Arduino: Oled not working when SD library is included I'm currently trying to put together a datalogger with an OLED screen and am having issues when adding the SD library to the script. I've seen that others have gotten error messages when combining Oled and SD cards that is related to RAM. Though in my case, the code runs, there is no error message, but the screen doesn't display anything. The code below shows the "OLED code" where the Oled display wouldn't show anything when I added the "#include <SD.h>".

A: Its just memory problem. I fix it by decrease the resolution only for usage area.. Its not the best solution however good enough for me

A: This was apparently a memory issue.
I've now connected an Arduino Mega instead of a Nano, and the code ran nicely. I've also added the remaining piece of code that was necessary to log the sensor readings.
According to what I've read on other forums, the SD and SPI libraries take up quite a lot of memory.

For most business owners, you concentrate on innovative marketing strategies, unique product promotions, seductive sales for services, outstanding special events, and precise product quality. While all of those concentrations are excellent ways for you to improve your overall net revenue, there is something that underlies all of those facets: a clean office. I cannot tell you how many business owners forget about or don't research cleaning services for their office; a majority (if not all) of their energy is spent on figuring out ways to increase their productivity. However, there are two specific reasons why your clean office has a significant impact on revenue and sales.
Research has shown that companies which have an office cleaning service provider achieve higher production numbers because of an increased staff morale and organization. In other words, not only does the clean office lift their employees' spirits (per se), but it also encourages them to be more organized within their personal workspace. The increased organization is one of the difference-makers between a productive employee and an employee that doesn't improve your bottom line revenue.
Studies also demonstrate that a clean and organized workplace improves employee retention due in large part to decreased stress. Take a minute to think about how you feel when you come back to your desk and it looks like a bomb just went off; you probably feel stressed, rushed, disorganized. The same holds true with regard to the entire office space. If you have a clean office, your stress level decreases (and so does your staff's).
Customer satisfaction surveys show that a clean office allows a stronger sense of trust in the company. With a stronger sense of trust comes an increased ability to sell quality products or services, and (therefore) reinforces overall clientele satisfaction.
Other comments and client feedback research also shows that cleanliness of a retail space is something that people talk about when discussing companies with friends and family. In other words, when someone asks their friend for a particular company, they talk about the products, services, customer service, and retail space. So, if you have a clean retail space, you are one step ahead of the game because that is one of the major topics of discussion when it comes to recommendations.
In summary, whether you choose to have a clean office for staff purposes or retail reasons, your company's productivity will be positively influenced.
Should you need help with office cleaning services or would like to talk about how a clean office can benefit you please don't hesitate to contact us today.


I began watching a show on Hulu. It came up with Spanish subtitles. I want to switch it to English subtitles.
I was instructed by a Hulu customer service rep to go to the Hulu website, log in, pull up the show, start playing it, hover the mouse until the control bar appeared near the bottom of the screen, click the gear, select English from the closed captions options, and then log out on the web site which would set it as a global default. I did this, and it did make the show, as seen on my browser, use English subtitles, but this did not affect the same show as seen on Apple TV. However, if I start watching a new show, the subtitles are in English. It's as though Hulu has "committed" me to watching The Handmaid's Tale with Spanish subtitles, and won't allow it to be changed.
The customer service rep said this was a "known problem with Apple TV" and that I'd have to wait for Apple to fix it. I'm dubious.
Does anyone have experience with the Hulu app on Apple TV, and can suggest how to force a subtitle language change on a series I've already begun watching?
So i was having the same problem and stumbled on the solution. While watching the video hit the pause button on the Apple TV controller. then swipe down. A menu bar should appear at the top of the paused video Info Subtitles Audio When you hover over subtitles you will see it defaulted to Spanish. Just switch to English. Wow, so simple but took me forever to accidentally swipe down after pausing and then the menu appeared. Good luck.

The Truth About Trade Wars: Everyone Loses, and the Damage Is Hard To Undo
President Trump is repeating the mistakes of the Great Depression.
by Sebastian Edwards via Made by History on June 6, 2018
One of the most important — and disrupting — trade wars in history began in June 1930 with the passage of the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act. This legislation increased import duties for agricultural and manufactured goods. Broadly supported by the Republican Party, its main purpose was to raise the cost of imported items and reduce the degree of foreign competition faced by domestic producers.
Then, as now, economists warned that protectionism was a "mistake." On May 5, 1930, 1,028 economists released a public letter declaring that Smoot-Hawley would "invite other nations to compete with us in raising further barriers to trade." Members of Congress dismissed these views as out of touch, coming simply from the ivory tower.
Yet the economists, not Congress, proved to be correct. As they predicted, Smoot-Hawley unleashed nationalistic sentiments across the world. Immediately after the law was passed, countries as diverse as Spain, Canada and Cuba raised their duties on U.S. goods. But the most serious blow came in August 1932, when Great Britain and the Commonwealth countries established a system of imperial preferences, imposing huge tariffs on goods coming from the United States.
Although Smoot-Hawley had been introduced in Congress some weeks before the stock market crash of October 1929, its passage ended up magnifying the Great Depression, making recovery more difficult and inserting the issue into the 1932 presidential campaign.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt campaigned for lower tariffs. He asserted that freer trade was required to revive international commerce and to end the Depression. On Sept. 29, 1932, six weeks before the election, he promised to reverse Smoot-Hawley and to end the trade wars. He stated that high import tariffs had "ruined our export trade" and that they "must come down." "We must consent to the reduction to some extent to some of our duties," he said, "in order to secure a lowering of foreign tariff walls."
After winning the election, Roosevelt appointed Tennessee Sen. Cordell Hull, a committed free trader who had strongly opposed Smoot-Hawley, as the new secretary of state. Hull immediately went to work establishing a "tariff truce" by securing a commitment from the other powers to initiate serious trade negotiations. The administration planned to launch its freer trade strategy at the London World Monetary and Economic Conference, a gathering where countries intended to negotiate issues related to the gold standard, currencies, debt and recovery.
But unraveling the trade war sparked by Smoot-Hawley proved to be far easier said than done.

Why former NHLer Dan LaCouture joined the concussion litigation
By Jason BroughApr 6, 2015, 3:38 PM EDT
Whether you agree or disagree with the lawsuit that's been brought against the NHL by former players who continue to struggle with symptoms related to concussions, it's hard to read this account by Dan LaCouture in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette and not feel sympathy.
LaCouture, 37, played 337 games in the NHL with six different teams. While in the league, he was no stranger to dropping the gloves.
I have debilitating headaches, nausea and motion sickness every day. I am always irritable. And with recent studies showing the shattering illnesses linked to traumatic brain injury, along with the recent news of National Hockey League legend Stan Mikita's unfortunate battle with dementia, I fear worse symptoms are yet to come.
My most serious concussion occurred in 2004 during a game at Madison Square Garden when I jumped into a fight to defend a Rangers teammate who had been hit from behind. During the brawl, my helmet slipped off and I split my head open on the ice as another player landed on top of me. The next thing I remember was being lifted off the ice by teammates and trainers. I got some stitches but never received an MRI, a CAT scan or serious medical treatment of any kind.
Things have changed in the relatively short time since then. There's more awareness now, and head injuries are treated more seriously.
But this case isn't about the present. LaCouture alleges that the NHL "for years denied the link between hits to the head and devastating neurological disorders," and also that the league "concealed information from players."
That's the key element in all this — concealment.
The NHL, obviously, disagrees with that particular allegation.
Related: Do the players suing the NHL over concussions have a case?

Cougar cubs at Columbus Zoo reunite with Montana firefighter who rescued them
Encarnacion Pyle, The Columbus Dispatch
Oct 2, 2014 at 12:01 AM Oct 3, 2014 at 10:18 AM
J.P. Rupp is back in Columbus to visit family, but he was just as tickled yesterday to see the two cougar kittens that he helped rescue from a wildfire in Montana at the end of August. The male cubs, Lewis and Clark, have been recovering from smoke inhalation at the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium.
�Relieved.�
That�s how J.P. Rupp felt yesterday after being reunited with the two cougar kittens that he helped rescue from a wildfire in Montana at the end of August.
�It�s good to see them like this: so happy, playful and doing so well,� said Rupp, who grew up in Groveport. �The last time I saw them, they were in a bad, bad spot.�
Rupp, a wildland firefighter for the U.S. Forest Service in western Montana, got to play with the curious cubs at the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium yesterday.
He, his wife, Shakti, and their two children had been planning a visit to see family in central Ohio when he learned that the cubs were recovering at the zoo.
Jack Hanna, the zoo�s director emeritus, had arranged to bring the cougars to Columbus after hearing about their rescue. The male cubs � named Lewis and Clark � were treated for smoke inhalation.
�It�s amazing they survived,� Hanna said recently. �I�ve been in those fires, and it�s hot.�
When they get a little older, Hanna would like to use the brothers as �animal ambassadors� and keep them at the zoo or at the Wilds in Muskingum County.
The cubs are still receiving medical care and are not on public display, zoo spokeswoman Jennifer Wilson said.
Rupp and his family petted, scratched and cooed at the kittens as they wandered and pounced around the zoo�s business office yesterday.
The 6-week-old cubs couldn�t sit still for long, so zookeepers dangled keys in front of them as Rupp�s sister tried to capture the reunion on camera.
�Wow, I never in my life thought I�d actually see a baby mountain lion,� 9-year-old son Jonathan Rupp said. Cougars are also known as mountain lions, pumas and panthers.
�Look at those huge paws. They�re like big paddles,� said Rupp�s 14-year-old stepdaughter, Allissa.
Rupp added, �They had quite the adventure.�
On Aug. 29, Rupp, 40, and other firefighters on his team found the pair on 48 acres of burning land near Florence. The crew was digging a line around the quickly spreading fire to contain the flames when they heard a chirping noise near a burning log.
Rupp looked in the surrounding shrubbery for an injured bird.
A helicopter carrying water from a nearby pond doused the log, and out shot a wet, furry critter from under the wood cover, Rupp said.
�It just squirted out, like it rode the wave,� he said.
Rupp picked the baby up and knew right away that it was a cougar.
A second kitten shot out after a second water drop a few minutes later, but it landed face first in a sooty, muddy puddle of water, he said.
�He was coughing and choking and had ash all over his tongue, nose and face,� Rupp said. �We brushed him off, did a makeshift Heimlich maneuver on him and warmed him up.�
It�s amazing that the firefighters happened to be in the area, said Rupp�s father, Jack �Butch� Rupp, the assistant fire chief at the Plain Township Fire Department.
�They were in the right place at the right time under the right circumstances. I�d say that�s lucky,� the elder Rupp said.
The cubs were 7 to 10 days old. Their eyes had only begun to open, and their ears were still closed. Their mother was never spotted.
Rupp said he had seen many adult cougars while working and near his home, but this was the first time he came across cubs.
The kittens stayed at the Montana Wildlife Center for 2 1/2 weeks before they were brought to Columbus, said Beth Nagoda, an animal-program specialist with the Columbus Zoo.
The cougars sucked on bottles while the Rupps were visiting.
Nagoda said the pair weigh about 7 1/2 pounds apiece. They�ll rapidly gain weight now that they have started eating meat.
They�re also doing all the things they should be doing at their age, such as learning to climb and hunt. They will lose their spots as they grow up, she said.
�They�re not snugglers,� she said. �They�re busy babies who love to jump and pounce.�

Title: 8-Bit Christmas 2021
Genres: 2021 Movies | Comedy, Family, Fantasy
Directors: Michael Dowse
Writer: Kevin Jakubowski
Stars: Winslow Fegley, Neil Patrick Harris, Steve Zahn
Synopsis: 8-Bit Christmas 2021 is a new Hollywood movie which is directed by Michael Dowse. The film star cast is Winslow Fegley, Neil Patrick Harris, and Steve Zahn. The story of the movie is based on Jake Doyle, who returns home for Christmas. He tells his daughter the story about how he got a Nintendo Entertainment System in the late 1980s. Jake's sister gets a real Cabbage Patch doll. Because it's a film that is aimed at kids, you just have to captivate it. But then again on the other side, his family teaming up together to try to hold up all video game systems from being sold is unimaginable. Indeed, even staggering as the presence of a gigantic 5th-grade menace twice as old as the remainder of the pack. In 1988, the year in which we see the youthful Jake, the company that created the dolls failed. Hasbro assumed control over the privileges to deliver Cabbage Patch dolls.

SECS uses a double-sided single-elimination bracket. In other words, nobody is out after the first round. Instead, losing teams are put into their own single-elimination bracket.
All matches are best-of-one. Every Sunday is a new bracket, and the bracket must be completed on Sunday night.
Teams get 2 points per win in the winner's bracket (including the first round); and 1 point per win in the loser's bracket. Points accumulate throughout the season.
The eight teams with the most points will be seeded into the playoff brackets. If there is a tie for 8th place, a playoff game will be used to determine who enters the brackets. If a team does not wish to participate in the playoffs, the next highest scoring team will take their place.
At the end of the season the winning team will receive 3 bonus points; runner up 2 points; and the winner of the lower bracket 1 point.
The top 2 teams in the playoff will receive prizes courtesy of MyGaming:
1st: R 1,500
2nd: R 500
Prizes will be paid directly to the team captain, whose responsibility it will then be to distribute the money to his/her team.
Prizes must be claimed within 2 weeks of the end of the season.
Opening Season: 10 February - 10 March 2013
Season 2: 7 April - 5 May 2013
1. A valid MyGaming forum account is required to enter the tournament.
2. Teams are tied to a captain. If the captain leaves, a new team must be formed. Rosters must be submitted, but ringers are allowed. Nobody is allowed to play on more than one team in any given week.
3. At least 3/5 players in every game must be from South Africa.
4. All players must be registered with their most common name. All players must play with their most common name in-game.
5. Every team must have at least one representative on IRC in channel #PolarfluKe (irc.shadowfire.org). This IRC channel will be used for all forms of communication, including contacting opponents, coordinating with streamers, and reporting match results. Alternatively, each team must have a representative in the PolarfluKe channel on Dota 2.
6. SECS starts at 4:45pm. You must check-in with the tournament admin between 4:00 - 4:45pm. Teams who do not check-in by 4:45 will not be included in the bracket. Matches start at 5:00pm. Any team without five players in the game lobby by 5:00pm will forfeit the match. When you are late, you waste the time of your opponents, the tournament admins, and the streamers. One delayed match will consequently delay the entire tournament.
7. Do not postpone matches, even if both teams agree.
8. Report match results to the tournament admin in #PolarfluKe (irc.shadowfire.org). Additionally, an end game screenshot must be posted to the MyGaming Dota 2 SECS forum.
9. Any observer is allowed to stream matches. Players are not allowed to broadcast a first-person stream of their own match.
10. Game settings:
Server Location: Luxemburg
Game Mode: Captains Mode
Starting Team: Radiant
Version: Latest
Spectators: Enabled
Cheats: Disabled
If teams cannot agree which side to play on, the team with more total points according to the season standings gets to choose. If it is a tie, the tournament admin will flip a coin.
Team captains may agree to make use of the South African Dota 2 servers. Luxemburg will remain default though.
11. Those who do not wish to follow the rules will be asked to leave. Please use this tournament as an opportunity to practice professionalism as well as game performance.

South Fort Myers Beach is awesome!
Amazing beachfront views from corner unit 206 lanai with easy access to beach, Lovers Key park, and shuttle to Times Square. Superb bird watching, shell collecting, a private heated pool and walking distance to restaurants/bars & bike rentals. Did yoga on the beach and had a spectacular sunrise and sunset view each day. South end location provides more private beach activity and quieter boat traffic than larger rentals on the north end. Highly recommend for families, nature lovers, or friends vacation spot.

Q: git clone failed from Jenkins: port 443 operation timed out I am running a jenkins pipeline which is having 2 layered git repos.

*

*Jenkins pipeline is in one repo from which pipeline is triggered.

*once pipeline is triggered it clones repo from another git repo to perform some operations.

I am able to trigger the pipeline, it starts correctly but give me following error when it starts to perform checkout of another repo-
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/<project-name>/<project>.git/': Failed to connect to github.com port 443: Operation timed out
[Pipeline] echo
hudson.AbortException: script returned exit code 128

any help or pointers what is wrong.

A: Make sure the account under which Jenkins process is running has access to a global git config where the proxy is defined (as in here)
And make sure there is no firewall rule preventing you to access internet from your Jenkins server.


An old guy on a boat.
After living her entire life in Rauel, I'm surprised Tobi can swim. Or even knows the word.
Maybe she went through some water-themed dungeons ?
I'm betting the water is somehow toxic or magic. Maybe toxic magic? Bad juju anyway.
I can confirm Rauel has water-themed dungeons, yes.
All those switches, huh, Neo?
He looks like a professional adventurer. Ordinary adventurer have to choose what to take from dungeons. He can easily transport a whole dragon's hoard, and then more. I'd bet he is higher lever than Tobi, so she should be careful.
Neo, I feel like this barge is the most detailed thing we've seen in a long while.
I have a fond appreciation for the effort it must have taken.
I could never draw a pile of scrap that good!
He looks like a Red Mind employee, which is probably why he's helping her.
The foreground rocks also look excellent.
Looks a lot like Frogatto rocks.
The color of the spear reminds me of Undyne.
Styx? Maybe one of the others?
Then again, maybe I'm thinking too magical... maybe, as someone else suggested, it simply dissolved everything and that's why it's clean. Could even be that it doesn't smell bad any more because the smell from the lake has overpowered her senses to the degree that she cannot smell ANYTHING.
You'd think Tobi would know better than to trust such strange water without scanning it first.
The water is not likely to be anything magical at all. Instead, it is more than likely a very potent acid. Note how all of the rescued refuse is sparkling clean.
It would stand to reason that the water itself is extremely acidic and dissolves organic matter readily, leaving inorganic refuse polished and clean.

Q: Showing an UIAlertView causes EXC_BAD_ACCESS I'm using AFNetworking to make a web request. After the web request completes. I want a UIAlertView to be shown. I'm using ARC and the code seems to work on devices. If I use a simulator I get an error: EXC_BAD_ACCESS
What am I doing wrong?
UIAlertView* postSubmitAlertView = [[UIAlertView alloc] init];
postSubmitAlertView.delegate = self;
[postSubmitAlertView addButtonWithTitle:@"Ok"];

AFHTTPRequestOperation *op = [[AFHTTPRequestOperation alloc]
    initWithRequest:request];

[op setCompletionBlock:^(void) {
    if(op.response.statusCode == 200) {

        postSubmitAlertView.title = @"Submission Good";
        postSubmitAlertView.message = @"GOOD";

   } else {

        postSubmitAlertView.title = @"Submission Failed.";
        postSubmitAlertView.message = @"FAIL";
   }

   [postSubmitAlertView show];
}];
[op start];

A: The key problem is that UIKit stuff should be called on the main thread.

Note: For the most part, UIKit classes should be used only from an application's main thread. This is particularly true for classes derived from UIResponder or that involve manipulating your application's user interface in any way.

UIKit Framework Reference
Looking at the docs for NSOperation under setCompletionBlock:

Discussion
  The exact execution context for your completion block is not guaranteed but is typically a secondary thread. Therefore, you should not use this block to do any work that requires a very specific execution context. Instead, you should shunt that work to your application's main thread or to the specific thread that is capable of doing it.

The simplest solution to modify your code is to call the UIKit stuff on the main thread
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
  [super viewDidLoad];

  NSURL *URL = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.google.com"];
  NSURLRequest *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:URL];

  AFHTTPRequestOperation *op = [[AFHTTPRequestOperation alloc]
                                initWithRequest:request];

  [op setCompletionBlock:^(void) {

    dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
      UIAlertView* postSubmitAlertView = [[UIAlertView alloc] init];
      postSubmitAlertView.delegate = self;
      [postSubmitAlertView addButtonWithTitle:@"Ok"];

      if(op.response.statusCode == 200) {

        postSubmitAlertView.title = @"Submission Good";
        postSubmitAlertView.message = @"GOOD";

      } else {

        postSubmitAlertView.title = @"Submission Failed.";
        postSubmitAlertView.message = @"FAIL";

      }

      [postSubmitAlertView show];
    });

  }];
  [op start];
}

A: The EXC_BAD_ACCESS is caused by accessing a released object. To avoid this make your call to UIAlertView kind of modal:
//Function body:

-(void)checkSaving
{
    UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Do you want to add these results to your database?"
                                                    message:@"\n\n"
                                                   delegate:self
                                          cancelButtonTitle:@"No"
                                          otherButtonTitles:@"Save", nil];
    alert.alertViewStyle = UIAlertViewStyleDefault;
    [alert show];

    //this prevent the ARC to clean up :
    NSRunLoop *rl = [NSRunLoop currentRunLoop];
    NSDate *d;
    d = (NSDate*)[d init];
    while ([alert isVisible]) {
        [rl runUntilDate:d];
    }
}

//Your choice result:

- (void)alertView:(UIAlertView *)actionSheet clickedButtonAtIndex:(NSInteger)buttonIndex {
    // the user clicked one of the OK/Cancel buttons
    if (buttonIndex == 1)//Save
    {
        //do something
    }
    if (buttonIndex == 0)//NO
    {
        //do something
    }
}

//Register the functions in the interface declaration:

@interface yourViewController ()
-(void)checkSaving
- (void)alertView:(UIAlertView *)actionSheet clickedButtonAtIndex:(NSInteger)buttonIndex
//...
@end

//To call:

[self checkSaving];

I wish this will help you.

A: UIAlertView* postSubmitAlertView = [[UIAlertView alloc] init];
postSubmitAlertView.delegate = self;
[postSubmitAlertView addButtonWithTitle:@"Ok"];

AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation = [[AFHTTPRequestOperation alloc]initWithRequest:request];
[operation  setCompletionBlockWithSuccess:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, id responseObject) {

        NSLog(@"success: %@", operation.responseString);
        postSubmitAlertView.title = @"Submission Good";
        postSubmitAlertView.message = @"GOOD";

}
    failure:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, NSError *error) {
        NSLog(@"error: %@",  operation.responseString);
        postSubmitAlertView.title = @"Submission Failed.";
        postSubmitAlertView.message = @"FAIL";

}
 ];

[postSubmitAlertView show];

Hope this will solve your problem.

Q: Building APIs using Laravel returns empty object only when called via javascript ... sometimes I'm building a webpage using VueJS and Laravel, everything worked fine until I hit this problem.
First, let me share the necessary code:
<script>
    axios.defaults.headers.common['Content-Type'] = 'application/json'

    var app = new Vue({
        el: '#app',
        methods: {
            getHotelsByCityName: async function () {

                const resp = await axios.get('localhost/api/hotels');
                console.log(resp);

            }
        },
    })
</script>

The Javascript code for sending the request is really as simple as that, and then for the backend I just encode the data in JSON format and send it back to the client.
   public function getHotels(Amadeus $amadeus,$destination)
    {
        $hotels =   $amadeus->searchForHotelsByCityOrAirportName($destination);
        return response()->json($hotels);
    }

Please note that I sometimes get the data, and sometimes I get empty object , in fact , If I open the webpage and just keep on refreshing it , sometimes I get the data and sometimes I don't , I found that clearing browser cache increase the chance of me getting the right data so it could be a caching problem, but what is being cached exactly ? what's going on here?
I am using Amadeus APIs , and just so you know, when I visit the API link directly in the browser it always work. so the backend seems fine, not sure where the problem is.
Edit 1: I noticed that I'm getting an empty object (again sometimes) when I inspect the request using google chrome dev tools, but again when I hit the API with the browser directly everything works fine, I am not getting any errors in the console but I am guessing it could be a headers , or cookies problem. if someone could help I'd greatly appreciate it.
Edit 2: I found out that if i wait a couple of seconds and then execute the method everything works fine, the problem only happens when I call getHotelsByCityName from mounted() function or any other method that executes as soon as the page loads.

A: Press F12 or ctrl+shift+I to open the developers tools on your browser. And switch to network panel to check the requests sent by browser and the results sent by server.
I believe that getHotelsByCityName() should be written in created or mounted section in Vue to get the data when page is loaded.

A: Use then for async await
<script>
    axios.defaults.headers.common['Content-Type'] = 'application/json'

    var app = new Vue({
        el: '#app',
        methods: {
            getHotelsByCityName: async function () {

               await axios.get('localhost/api/hotels').then(resp => {
                  console.log(resp)
               })

            }
        },
    })
</script>

News – April 2018
Owen Hewitson - LacanOnline.com May 7, 2018 News – April 20182018-05-07T14:56:02+01:00 News 2 Comments
Beginning with the latest publications in the Lacanian field, released last month was the new collection Unconscious Incarnations edited by Brian W. Becker, John Panteleimon Manoussakis, and David M. Goodman. Focussing on the status of the body in psychoanalytic theory and practice, it examines concepts like trauma, healing, desire, subjectivity, and the unconscious from an interdisciplinary perspective that brings Freud and Lacan into conversation with continental philosophy.
Newly-released from the Palgrave Lacan Series is Lacan and the Posthuman, edited by Svitlana Matviyenko and Judith Roof. The collection looks at what psychoanalysis adds to contemporary conversations about subject/object relations, systems, perspectives, and values in the posthuman age. Its chapters deal with posthumanism as sinthome, posthumanism and the baroque, cybernetic theories of causality, and graphocentrism, among many others. A full chapter list is available on the publishers' site.
Routledge published Donald L. Carveth's Psychoanalytic Thinking: A Dialectical Critique of Contemporary Theory and Practice at the end of last month. While the book discusses Lacan with other post-Freudians like Klein, Bion, Fromm, and Kohut, Carveth attempts a dialogue and mutual critique between them as part of "an ever-evolving synthesis" of psychoanalytic disciplines. Carveth is Emeritus Professor of Sociology and Social and Political Thought at York University, Toronto. He was also previously Director of the Toronto Institute of Psychoanalysis and Editor-in-Chief of the Canadian Journal of Psychoanalysis/Revue Canadienne de Psychanalyse. A video of Carveth discussing the book is on YouTube here.
The English translation of Catherine Millot's Life With Lacan was released last month. Awarded the André Gide Prize for Literature, in this short volume Millot reminisces about her relationship with Lacan – both as analysand and lover – during the 1970s up to Lacan's death in 1981. You can read some of the more salacious details in Stuart Jeffries' (largely complementary) review for The Spectator.
As heralded earlier this year, CFAR will publish its collection of essays on Obsessional Neurosis: Lacanian Perspectives this month through publishers Routledge. Edited by Astrid Gessert, it seeks to challenge the cliches which reduce obsession to the question 'Am I alive or dead?' and instead examines obsession viathemes such as debt, guilt, action, aggression, and solicitude.
Announced in April for publication later this year is a translation of Colette Soler's work on Lacan and Joyce, taking the English title Lacan Reading Joyce. Originally published in France in 2015, it naturally focuses on Lacan's Seminar XXIII devoted to the Irish writer, but in particular Soler explores what Lacan learned from Joyce for the development of his later work.
Also newly-announced is Shanna de la Torre's Sex for Structuralists: The Non-Oedipal Logics of Femininity and Psychosis which is due for release by Palgrave Macmillan in October. It looks at key texts on myth, trauma, and unconscious frantasy by Freud, Lacan, and Lévi-Strauss, and the status of structuralism in an age post the incest prohibition and zero symbol.
Looking further ahead, announced last month for release at the start of 2019 is Eliot Rosenstock's Zizek in the Clinic: A Revolutionary Proposal for a New Endgame in Psychotherapy. As a psychotherapist, Rosenstock proposes a philosophical foundation for mental health treatments based on Zizek's work.
Among the journals, the latest edition of Lacanian Ink, number 51, was released last month. Its theme this time is 'The Political' – a topic which has occupied many WAP-affiliated organisations in the past year – and it presents papers by Jacques-Alain Miller on 'Heresy and Orthodoxy', Eric Laurent on 'Shame and Self-Hatred', as well as Francois Regnault's tribute to the late Judith Miller. Full contents and previous editions of the journal are on Lacan.com.
Recommended for Lacanians interested in the development of the French school of psychoanalysis around Lacan will be the latest New Books podcast with Dominique Scarfone who discusses his 2015 book The Unpast: The Actual Unconscious. Scarfone is an Honorary Professor at the University of Montreal and one of the world's leading experts on Lacan's contemporary, Jean Laplanche. Like both Lacan and Laplanche, Scarfone's project is to chart "a new itinerary through the vast landscape that is Freud", looking at themes of time and history with Freud's drive theory and metapsychology.
For French speakers, published last month was Jean-Daniel Causse's Lacan et le christianisme which explores Lacan's interest in Christianity. His lifelong inspiration by Saint Augustin's teaching, to the motifs of christendom which appear in the Borromean knot and concepts such as the Name-of-the-Father. Jean-Daniel Causse is a practicing psychoanalyst and professor of psychoanalytic studies at l'université Paul-Valéry-Montpellier 3.
Turning to upcoming events, Analytica will be hosting two events with Dr Bracha Ettinger on Saturday, 19th May as part of its ongoing Future Analyst Seminar. In the first, 'Matrix/Phallus: Feminine Ends of Analysis', Ettinger will discuss feminine sexuality and the clinical implications of a matrixial dimension of subjectivity for sex, gender, and desire. The second, 'The Symptom of Art and The Art of the Symptom' will look at what art can teach analysis, and vice versa. The seminars will be available by virtual transmission internationally. Registration for both is open here.
At the Freud Museum, London on 25th May, Todd McGowan will be giving a talk on 'The Gaze as Cinematic Object'. McGowan will be exploring Hitchcock's Vertigo and Orson Welles' Citizen Kane to bring out the contrast between the theorisation of the gaze in film studies and in Lacanian psychoanalysis.
A reminder that the Freud Museum will also be hosting a conference on the films of David Lynch in May. Freud/Lynch: Behind the Curtain will run 26th-27th May and invites psychoanalysts, scholars and cinephiles to reflect on enigmas presented in Lynch's work.
In the US, Lacanian Compass is organising an event in Miami on 10th May entitled 'Violence: There where speech gives up'. It will address the nature of violence and the ethical implications of contemporary issues, like the decision to arm teachers in the United States, and the role of the law and symbolic order such moves entail. A round table of psychoanalysts will lead the discussion. More details on the group's site here.
The Earl's Court Clinical Group will host its next Open Meeting in London on Saturday 2nd June. Each of the four speakers will give a short presentation on a clinical topic which will then be opened up for discussion. Full details and tickets are available on Eventbrite here.
In New York City, the Training Institute for Mental Health will be holding an introductory seminar-workshop on Lacan's clinical technique with David M. Castro on 18th May. It will include a clinical case presentation and supervision discussion drawing on principles derived from Lacan's work. Full details are on the TIMH's site here.
With the next NLS Congress,'In a State of Transference', due to take place 30th June-1st July, a number of preparatory events are organised for the month ahead by the NLS's schools. The London Society will be hosting a seminar with Sophie Marret-Maleval entitled 'Transference reveals the truth of love' on Saturday 19th May, while the Irish Circle of the Lacanian Orientation will be holding its 6th Annual Study Day on Saturday 2nd June, with guest presenter Lynn Gaillard, under the title 'Transference: In and Out'. The Argument for the Congress, registration, and blog are all now available.
Lastly, in London on Friday 11th May, the London Review Bookshop will host Lacanian psychoanalyst Bice Benvenuto to present her film The Villa of Mysteries, based on her 1994 book Concerning the Rites of Psychoanalysis. Tickets to attend and more information are on Eventbrite here.

When can we expect the next 'Amuse-Bouches' column? As for Carveth, as much as he's after a dialogue, it's one directed towards a Kleinian perspective, from his YouTube seminars at least!

Drinking IPA and eating hop-leaf tabbouleh, celebrating anniversaries with special tappings and tap take-overs, and lots more foamy talk.
Another anticipated brewery opened last week. Like Minds (823 E. Hamilton St.) combines smartly brewed beers that pair nicely with a menu created by one of the best chefs in the midwest, Justin Aprahamian. Ann Christenson gave an overview of the food menu in last week's Dish in Dining.
I made it in last Friday. The bright, airy space is certainly welcoming, and the beer is worth . I tried the Horehound IIPA, which was bitter but not overpowering, and Archimedes, an IPA that features a nice spicy funk from the presence of the yeast strain Brettanomyces.
The thing I like about the new spot is the menu. There are plenty of small plate options, like spiced nuts and hop leaf tabbouleh, which are perfect for sustenance that won't fill you up while sampling beer. Aprahamian knows what he's doing.
Not too many Wisconsin breweries took home medals at the Great American Beer Fest last weekend in Denver, but one local did just fine. Raised Grain grabbed a gold medal for Paradocs Red Imperial IPA. It's a well-deserved honor for a great brewery and a fantastic beer. Cheers to the guys in Waukesha!
Silver medals were grabbed by two Madison breweries – Vintage for Better of Red and Greenview's Copperhead.
It's hard to overstate how good the barrel-aging program is at Central Waters. What they're doing in Amherst stands up against anyone in the world, in my humble opinion. Another example is this year's Bourbon Barrel Belgian Quad. Sure, it's boozy, but the heat is countered by a rich dark fruit flavor that makes it an excellent sipper. If you see this beer, try it.
I don't normally mention too many beer releases (due to the sheer volume of them), but an announcement by Upland Brewing has me intrigued. Latitude Adjustment is a pale ale made with Mosaic hops, pineapple and coconut. Interesting enough, but I love the fact that Upland is releasing this tropical pale ale during the chill of November.
Tuesday, Oct. 11: Champps (1240 S. Moorland Rd.) has a couple of big, and limited, Central Waters brews hitting the taps at 6 p.m. A keg of the Bourbon Barrel Belgian Quadrupel is worth the visit, but Champps also has a small firkin of Fat Elvis Imperial Stout with Cherries and Vanilla. Get there early.
Wednesday, Oct. 12: MobCraft is taking over the taps at Ray's Growler Gallery (8930 W. North Ave.) starting at 5 p.m.
Wednesday, Oct. 12: As of late last week, there were still tickets available for the grilled cheese and beer pairing at Uber Tap Room (1048 N. Old World Third St.). Deliciousness starts at 6 p.m. and costs just $20.
Wednesday, Oct. 12: Camino (434 S. 2nd St.) opened a year ago, and we're glad. To celebrate, the bar is letting 3 Floyds take over the taps. I hear from owner Casey Rataczak that Arctic Panzer Wolf IIPA, Moloko Milk Stout, and yes, Zombie Dust, are just a few of the barrels being tapped.
Wednesday, Oct. 12: Monsters Bierklasse at Café Centraal (2306 S. Kinnickinnic Ave.) tackles big beers with ABV's of 11% or more. The cost is $30, plus your Uber fare home. Reserve a space at Bierklasse.com.
Thursday, Oct. 13 – 16: Milwaukee Oktoberfest sets up shop in Veterans Park. It starts with a ceremonial keg tapping at 5 p.m. on Thursday and runs through Sunday. Check out the full schedule.
Friday, Oct. 14: Discount Liquor Milwaukee (5031 W. Oklahoma Ave.) is handing out samples of Summit from 4 to 7 p.m.
Friday, Oct. 14: Some tasty samples from Stone are coming to Discount Liquor Waukesha (919 N. Barstow Ave.) from 4 to 7 p.m.
Saturday, Oct. 15: Wisconsin Brewing brings samples to both Discount Liquor locations from noon to 3 p.m.
Saturday, Oct. 15: Draft & Vessel (4417 N. Oakland Ave.) is simply one of the best beer drinking spots you'll find, anywhere. Celebrate its two-year birthday with food from Tess, music, and tappings of Vintage 2015 Bourbon Barrel Ulfberht Baltic Porter at 6 p.m. and 2016 Founders KBS at 8 p.m.
Sunday, Oct. 16: Pours start flowing for the Sunday bottle share at The Malt Shoppe (813 N. Mayfair Rd.) at 5:30 p.m. The theme is Clear the Cellar, so snag whatever unique beer you have sitting around and share with others. Bring a snack and a bomber (or a pair of 12-ounce brews).


"Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer" is a comedy Christmas song and the eponymous animated movie. Written by Randy Brooks, the song was originally performed by the husband and wife duo of Elmo and Patsy Shropshire in 1979. Brooks offered Shropshire the rights to the song for $500, saying his own band wouldn't let him play it.
The song was originally self-released by the Shropshires in 1979 on their own record label ("Elmo 'n' Patsy"), with the B-side called "Christmas". By the early 1980s, the song was becoming a seasonal hit, first on country stations and then on Top 40 stations.
The 2000 animated television program Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer portrays the events depicted in the song - though, being made for children, the cartoon is toned down of adult content, so that Grandma does not die, and Santa is actually innocent of the crime, which was instead masterminded by a scheming relative.

The National Bee Pest Surveillance Program is an early warning system to detect new incursions of exotic bee pests and pest bees. The program involves a range of surveillance methods conducted at sea and air ports throughout Australia considered to be the most likely entry points for bee pests and pest bees.
To act as an early warning system to detect new incursions of exotic bee pests and pest bees. This greatly increases the possibility of eradicating an incursion and limits the scale and cost of an eradication program.
The program is jointly funded by the Australian Honey Bee Industry Council, Hort Innovation, Grain Producers Australia and the Australian Government Department of Agriculture and Water Resources. In-kind contributions for the implementation of the program are provided through each state and territory Department of Agriculture as well as volunteer beekeepers. At a national level, PHA coordinates and administers the program.
Part of the Bee Biosecurity Video Series produced by PHA and Plant & Food Research NZ, this video gives an overview of the National Bee Pest Surveillance Program.
This summary document includes the objectives of the program, methods used for surveillance, the role of PHA in the program and the sources of funding.
