Q: What is the specific reason for the runtime error I'm getting here? #include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>
void main()
{
    char a,b,c;
    printf("Enter alien names:\n");
    scanf("%s\n%s\n%s\n",a,b,c);
    printf("The alien names are %s, %s and %s. A meteor hit %s's spaceship. A star scratched %s\'s spaceship. But %s fixed %s and %s\'s spaceships. The three became friends and are from the planet BYG (which means BLUE YELLOW GREEN)",a,b,c,a,b,c,a,b);
}

What is the specific reason for the runtime error I'm getting here?

A: The posted code has undefined behavior, because the variables a, b, and c are of type char, while the %s conversion specifier in the call to scanf() is expecting a pointer to the first element of a character array that can hold the input string. Mismatched conversion specifers and arguments in a scanf() call lead to undefined behavior, and attempting to write too many characters into the receiving array causes undefined behavior.
The first problem can be fixed by declaring a, b, and c as arrays large enough to hold expected input:
char a[100], b[100], c[100];
...
scanf("%s\n%s\n%s\n", a, b, c);

Note that arrays decay to pointers to their first elements in most expressions, including function calls, so here a is a pointer to the first element of the character array a[]; this is equivalent to &a[0].
There is still a possibility for undefined behavior if the user enters too many characters. To avoid this, always specify a maximum width when using scanf() to read user input into a string. Note here that the specified width is the maximum number of characters that will be read for that input item, not including the null terminator, \0, which will be automatically added by scanf(), so the maximum width must be at least one less than the size of the receiving array:
scanf("%99s\n%99s\n%99s\n", a, b, c);

But if you compile and run this code, you will find that it does not behave as expected. After the third name is entered, the program will continue waiting for more input. This is because the \n character is a whitespace character, and when scanf() encounters a whitespace character in a format string, it reads and discards zero or more whitespace characters in the input until a nonwhitespace character is encountered, or until no more characters can be read. The %s directive tells scanf() to read characters until a whitespace character is encountered. So when the user presses Enter after the final name, scanf() completes matching input characters for the final name and returns the \n character to the input stream; then the \n is reached in the above format string, and scanf() matches the aforementioned \n character in the input stream, and any further whitespace characters that are encountered. This will end if the user enters another nonwhitespace character, or signals end-of-file from the keyboard (e.g., with Ctrl-D or Ctrl-Z).
To avoid this complication, remember that it is almost never correct to end a scanf() format string with a whitespace character. Also, there is no need to use \n rather than a space character, since both are simply interpreted as whitespace directives by scanf():
scanf("%99s %99s %99s", a, b, c);

It would further improve the posted code if the return value from the call to scanf() were checked before attempting to use the input. Since scanf() returns the number of successful assignments made, this value should be 3:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

int main(void)
{
    char a[100], b[100], c[100];

    printf("Enter alien names:\n");
    int ret_val = scanf("%99s %99s %99s", a, b, c);

    if (ret_val == 3) {
        printf("The alien names are %s, %s and %s. A meteor hit %s's "
               "spaceship. A star scratched %s\'s spaceship. But %s "
               "fixed %s and %s\'s spaceships. The three became friends "
               "and are from the planet BYG (which means BLUE YELLOW GREEN)\n",
               a, b, c, a, b, c, a, b);
    } else {
        puts("Input error");
    }
}

A: To solve this issue you should simply consider to use strings (arrays of chars) to contain the different names.
Here is an example how to do that:
    void main()
{
// The string "a" can contain up to 100 symbols (chars).
char a[100];

printf("Enter an alien name:\n");

scanf("%s",a);

printf("The alien name is %s.", a);

}

The difference between "char a" and "char a[100]" is that in the first case the variable "a" corresponds to a single character and in the second it corresponds to a string - an array of chars which can contain up to 100 characters.

A:
What is the specific reason for the runtime error I'm getting here?

The function scanf using the format specifier %s expects to be passed the address of a char array, in which to place the input data. For example an array such as
char a[100];

However, you pass simple char variables a and b and c which can hold values in the range -128 to 127, or 0 to 255, depending on whether the implementation's char is signed or unsigned.
These variables were not even initialised, so indeterminate values were passed to scanf. But even if they had been initialised, it is very likely that the values passed will cause a segfault, when used as addresses.
My compiler issued 2 warnings for each of a, b and c passed to scanf.

warning C4477: 'scanf' : format string '%s' requires an argument of type 'char *', but variadic argument 1 has type 'int'
warning C4700: uninitialized local variable 'a' used

Please enable and act on all compiler warnings.

A:     //There are things that shoudn't be there. Im not a pro but this is what I think.

    #include<stdio.h>
    #include<string.h>//you have include this library but you didn't use a function from it.
                      //I think what you want to do is use the str functions like strcpy
                      //but in this case you don't need to use it.

    void main()
    {
        char a[25],b[25],c[25];//Here you declared a character a, b and c. But if you want to store a string, you have to declare an array of characters. So instead of a, b, c, it's a[someValue], b[someValue] and c[someValue].
                   //Declare an array with a size that you think will cover the whole "alien name". e.g. a[25]..
                   //but i don't know, maybe you did it on purpose. Maybe you just want to name the aliens with one character like A, B, C. But if you want to name the aliens with a long name, you must declare an array.

        printf("Enter alien names:\n");
        scanf("%s\n%s\n%s\n",a,b,c);//You don't need to put the "\n" between those "%s". "\n" means "newline". It will work without it because scanf automatically reads next set of characters when it meets white space of newline.
                                    //--so you can remove "\n" in there and replace it with space. But you can leave it there also but  you really have to remove the last "\n" because scanf will search again for the next
                                    //--new line before it will end asking for input and pressing enter will not work because you have to type another set of characters before scanf will read the last "\n" that you put at scanF.
                                    //Another mistake here is the format specifier that you used (%s). It doesn't match declaration because you declare char a, b, c, that will only store one character each.
                                    //In case that you're really just storing one character each alien's name, you have to use the "%c" instead of "%s" and you must pass the reference of the char variable in
                                    //--scanf, e.g. scanf("%c %c %c", &a, &b, &c);
                                    //Just remember that if you plan on storing a string or a long name there, you must declare an array like I said at the beginning.
                                    //--and if it's an array, you don't need to include the '&' on every variable when you're passing it in scanF.

        //There's nothing wrong here if you're alien's names are string.
        printf("The alien names are %s, %s and %s. A meteor hit %s's spaceship. A star scratched %s\'s spaceship. But %s fixed %s and %s\'s spaceships. The three became friends and are from the planet BYG (which means BLUE YELLOW GREEN)",a,b,c,a,b,c,a,b);
    }

A: The specific reason for the runtime error is this line:
scanf("%s\n%s\n%s\n",a,b,c);

The %s conversion specifier tells scanf to read a sequence of non-whitespace characters from the input stream (skipping over leading whitespace) and store that sequence to an array of char pointed to by the corresponding argument.  The problem is that a, b, and c are not pointers to char; they're single char objects that haven't been initialized.  The odds of any of them containing a value that corresponds to an address that scanf can write to is almost non-existant.
First, change the declarations of a, b, and c tochar a[SOME_LENGTH] = {0}; // initialize array contents to 01
char b[SOME_LENGTH] = {0};
char c[SOME_LENGTH] = {0};

where SOME_LENGTH is a number that's long enough to contain the longest string you expect to enter plus one extra space for the string terminator.  IOW, if the longest string you intend to read is 10 characters long, then your declarations need to be

char a[11] = {0};
char b[11] = {0};
char c[11] = {0};

Secondly, change your scanf call to
scanf( "%(SOME_LENGTH-1)s %(SOME_LENGTH-1)s %(SOME_LENGTH-1)s", a, b, c );

where (SOME_LENGTH-1) is the length of your buffer minus 1.  Again, assuming SOME_LENGTH is 11:
scanf( "%10s %10s %10s", a, b, c );

This will help prevent a buffer overrun in the event you enter a string longer than what the buffer is sized to hold.
Both the %s conversion specifier and a blank space in the format string tell scanf to consume and discard any leading whitespace.  You can run into trouble specifying whitespace characters in the format string.
Additional notes:
main returns int, not void - change your main to
int main (void)
{
  ...
}

*

*If there are fewer elements in the initializer than there are in the array, then excess elements are initialized to 0.  So in this case, the first element is *explicitly* initialized to 0, and the remaining elements are *implicitly* initialized to 0.

Wild Card: Ace In The Hole Previous Page
The King has work for you to do, and that's just what you happened to need. Pay him a visit at the King's School of Impersonation.
QUEST REWARD: 1650 EXP.
QUEST OUTLINE: To follow...
Backtrack and go inside the King's School of Impersonation. Pay Pacer 50 caps to speak with the King. Tell him you paid to see him and you can get your money back. Get back to business and he'll tell you to hire a guard named Orris at the northern gate of Freeside. He'll hand you 200 caps to close the deal with Orris. Hire him (as mentioned before, at the northern gate of Freeside) and follow him around. After a while he'll "kill" four thugs. If you have 6 or more Intelligence (and you should), use this option. You can also inspect the thug bodies if you have a 30 Medicine Skill.
Alternatively, a more universal approach would be to just pop a bullet into one of the "corpses" and see what happens. Orris and the four thugs will turn against you, so be prepared for this to happen. His Hunting Revolver is extraordinary powerful, so you may want to move to the far northwest and shoot one of the corpses from afar (and at least save before attempting). Look for back up near the King's School of Impersonation - Orris usually gets into trouble with the Security Gatekeepers. When the thugs have been taken care of by you and the Kings, loot Orris' body or lure him to the Kings as well. As mentioned, his Hunting Revolver is not only very powerful, but very valuable as well. His Metal Armor isn't too bad either. Return to the King and report. Don't let the question marker fool you; the King's (sometimes) located in his suite on the third floor.
Working for The King
THE NCR AND THE KINGS
The next task for you is to head to Old Mormon Fort and ask the locals about their assailants. Find Old Mormon Fort northeast/east of Freeside and enter through the large wooden gate. Speak to Roy (and Wayne too, who probably has an IQ of 83), then return to the King with the information. This time, inquire about his dog, Rex, and you can even start a new quest: Nothin' But a Hound Dog. Return to Old Mormon Fort and speak with Julie Farkas about the NCR troops. She tells you to speak with Major Elizabeth Kieran, telling her to mention her name. You can also start yet another new quest at Julie regarding trouble in Freeside: High Hopes. Let's first continue with G.I. Blues.
Tip: Head into Fort Mormon through the door in the west corner and look around the bedroom upstairs to find the [SNOWGLOBE - MORMON FORT] in the cabinet, and a {TODAY'S PHYSICIAL} on the desk.
Travel around Old Mormon Fort, heading southeast/east, and locate the missionary to the northeast. He's part of the NCR and wants you to take a quiz before telling you the password. The correct answers are: Tandi, Shandy Sands, Bear. With the password, travel down the street northwest, then follow the destroyed highway southwest until you reach the NCR Ruined Store to your left (southeast). Speak with Elizabeth Kieran here to get the information you came for. Return to the King's School of Impersonation and Pacer approaches you, asking (telling) you not to tell the King what you just found out. You can bargain with him and he'll give you 200 caps (what is the amount with 50 Barter, anyone know?).
COMPANION REX
Speak with the King anyhow, and inquire about Rex first (if you spoke with Julie about this earlier). Tell him that Rex can be cured, and the King will actually lend you Rex! This gives you a companion similar to Dogmeat in Fallout 3, and arguably cooler! This also grants you the Search and Find perk as long as Rex is a companion: It's more nifty than extremely useful, but when zooming the camera will highlight chems, firearms and ammunition in the surroundings, making them slightly more easy to find. You need to know about Rex that he chases off after rats (and probably after people with hats, too). You can also view Rex as an important expansion of your inventory, as he can carry 240 weight. Do be careful on hardcore mode: If Rex dies, he'll be gone forever.
GETTING INTO THE STRIP
Also tell the King what Elizabeth told you, then head back to the NCR Store and you'll find Pacer under fire by NCR troops. Speak with Elizabeth nearby the outpost tower to the northwest to defuse the situation and report back to the King. This concludes the G.I. Blues quest.
You can now ask the King for a favor:
1. Join the Kings. This makes you one of them, and you're less likely to be attacked around Freeside.
2. Get into the Strip. The King sends you to Mick and Ralphs where you can claim the [COUNTERFEIT PASSPORT], allowing you to access the strip.
3. Money. This gives you 1000 caps.
Since you'll want to get into the strip, option two is currently recommended. Of course, you can also pick one of the others but you'll have to figure out a different way to get into the strip. Mick & Ralph's is located in the same area as Mormon Fort, and is located southeast from there (check your local map). Head inside and talk to Ralph, telling him the King sent you regarding a favor he owes you. Ralph will then give you the counterfeit passport. With this in your posession it's finally time to enter the strip.
After entering, a security bot tells you to visit Mr. House, which initiate the 'The House Always Wins, I' quest. Let's first continue with the Ring-a-Ding-Ding quest and continue to the Strip. You'll also be able to buy some weapons you can sneak into casino's (such as a silenced pistol(!!) or switchblades). It's a good idea to buy at least a Silenced .22 Pistol if you don't already have one.
THE TOPS CASINO
Proceed to the next part of the Strip, and enter the The Tops Casino (with the circling flashy lights). Hand over your weapons (not everything, of course), then meet Benny who's in the north area of the casino. There are a few approaches you can now take:
1. Attack Benny (highly unrecommended, you barely stand a chance).
2. Meet him in the VIP suite (you go first).
3. Use the Black Widow Perk to get a hilarious conversation and Benny will leadyou to the suite.
4. Use Barter (35 ) or Speech (60 ) to get Benny to follow you to the suite.
The 'Wild Card: Ace In The Hole' quest now also starts.

A Bakewell Media Publication
Bank of America supports local legend and national icon, Jackie Robinson; Danny Bakewell, Sr. selected to honor Robinson Legacy
Published on Thursday, 14 April 2016 15:05
Written by Special to the LAWT
Special to the LAWT
Few people in Los Angeles know that legendary baseball player Jackie Robinson is a local hero who went on to become a national icon when he broke baseball's color barrier on April 15, 1947. Jackie grew up in Pasadena and went to college at the University of California, before joining the Brooklyn Dodgers to become the first African American to play in the major leagues.
The legacy of Jackie Robinson was recently chronicled in a two-part documentary that aired April 11-12 on PBS and is available to stream online throughout the month of April. Directed by acclaimed filmmakers Ken Burns, Sarah Burns and David McMahon, the film not only details Robinson's life-long battle for social justice, it also highlights his wife, Rachel Robinson, who fought alongside Jackie and became a symbol of women's empowerment. Bank of America's support of Jackie Robinson represents the company's steadfast commitment to the importance of fostering an inclusive culture by not only celebrating the diversity of its own workforce but also in the communities it serves.
As an extension of this commitment, on Friday, April 15, Bank of America will sponsor Jackie Robinson Day at Dodgers Stadium, where the first 40,000 fans in attendance will receive an adult Jackie Robinson replica Number '42' jersey. They will join all MLB players who will don the number '42' in honor of Jackie Robinson Day, as part of an annual observance that has taken place each April 15th since 2009.
Bank of America's support of Jackie Robinson Day included the opportunity to nominate a candidate to throw the first pitch, and its local African American leadership team selected Danny Bakewell Sr. in recognition of the impact that the Bakewell family and The Bakewell Company has had in fostering a more inclusive culture in the city of Los Angeles. Danny Sr. co-founded the National Black United Fund and served as president of The Brotherhood Crusades, a civil rights advocacy organization, for more than thirty years.
As part of its dedication to fostering an inclusive company, Bank of America supports employee networks to connect a workforce that's based in more than 35 countries and features diversity in thought, style, sexual orientation, gender identity, ethnicity, culture and experience. By supporting films like Jackie Robinson, as well as moments like Jackie Robinson Day where communities can come together to recognize local civil rights heroes like Danny Bakewell Sr., the bank seeks to foster a more inclusive culture beyond its own walls as well.

Q: Jquery mobile plus/minus issue I was going to use jQuery mobile for this one to get the mobile theme http://jsfiddle.net/hhken790/
HTML
<input type="button" value="-" class="qtyminus" />
<input type="text" name="myInputs[qty][]" value="0" class="qty" />
<input type="button" value="+" class="qtyplus" />

jQuery
$("#dynamic").on("click", ".qtyplus", function (e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    var $input  = $(this).prev("input");
    var currentVal = parseInt($input.val());
    if (!isNaN(currentVal)) {
       $input.val(currentVal + 1);
    } else {
       $input.val(0);
    }
});

However, the plus and minus wont work here. Any idea what causing this?

A: When you add jQM, it enhances/styles many DOM elements by adding container divs and other DOM elements. This means that your buttons and text inputs are no longer siblings in the DOM and prev() will not work. Instead traverse up the DOM and then down:
var $input  = $(this).closest("div#dynamic").find(".qty");

e.g:
$("#dynamic").on("click", ".qtyplus, .qtyminus", function (e) {
     e.preventDefault();
    var $input  = $(this).closest("div#dynamic").find(".qty");
    var currentVal = parseInt($input.val());
    if (!isNaN(currentVal)) {
        $(this).hasClass("qtyplus") ? $input.val(currentVal + 1) : $input.val(currentVal - 1);
    } else {
        $input.val(0);
    }
});

Q: Something wrong with armstrong number java code I wrote a code for school in java that verifies if a number is an armstrong number. I programmed it so that it runs as many times until the user inputs 0, at which the program will terminate. I am having 2 problems.

*

*The code only works the first time through, if the user inputs 371 (an armstrong number) the first time, it works, but after that it returns that the number is not an armstrong number.

*When the user inputs 0, it still shows the statement whether it is or is not an armstrong number, which I don't want it to.
This is the code:
import java.util.Scanner; //import Scanner for user input

public class Ch6Project {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        int userNum, totalValue = 0, num, numLength; //declare variables that will be used
        String suserNum; //declare user input variable
        Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in); //declare a Scanner

        System.out.println("Welcome to the Armstrong Number Program."); //description
        System.out.println("\nTo calculate an Armstrong number: ");
        System.out.println("\t 1. Cube each digit of the number.");
        System.out.println("\t 2. Take the sum of these cubes.");
        System.out.println("\t 3. If the sum equals the number, it is an Armstrong Number.");
        System.out.println("\t e.g. 3^3 + 1^3 + 7^3 = 317");

        do {
            System.out.print("\nEnter a whole number (0 to quit): ");
            suserNum = input.nextLine(); //collect user input
            userNum = Integer.parseInt(suserNum); //parse user input
            numLength = suserNum.length(); //calculate length of user input

            for (int i = numLength; i > 0; i--) { //create loop to run for n times
                num = Integer.parseInt(suserNum.substring(numLength - 1, numLength)); //get last digit of number
                totalValue += Math.pow(num, 3); //cube a digit
                numLength--; //subtract userNum by 1 to get the rest of the digits
            }

            if (totalValue == userNum) { //if total value equals user input, it is Armstrong #
                System.out.println("Your number is an Armstrong number.");
            } else { //if total value does not equal user input, it is not an Armstrong #
                System.out.println("Your number is not an Armstrong number.");
            }

        } while (userNum != 0); //run loop until user input == 0
        input.close(); //close user input

    }
}

A: Change your code so that it breaks immediately after entry of the userNum
e.g.
userNum = Integer.parseInt(suserNum); //parse user input
if (userNum == 0) {
   break;
}

then you can also change your loop to a endless loop
while (true) {
   // your code
}

A: It works only the first time because you don't reset your sum variable: just after the do insert:
do {
    totalValue =0;..
}while (userNum != 0);
plus, your code doesn't immediatly exit because the check of the condition is at the end, hence you insert the number, the code is executed and THEN you check. BTW: when you can, avoid using break statement.
Put an if controll after the reading of the number, like this:
do {
    System.out.print("\nEnter a whole number (0 to quit): ");
    suserNum = input.nextLine(); //collect user inputuserNum =
    Integer.parseInt(suserNum); //parse user input

    if(userNum !=0){...your code...}
}while (userNum != 0);

There are a ton of more elegant way to code it but this should do the work

A: public class E1 {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      int c = 0, a, temp;
      int m = 153;
      int n = m;
      temp = n;
      while (n > 0) {
         a = n % 10;
         n = n / 10;
         c = c + (a * a * a);
      }
      if (temp == c)
         System.out.println(m + " is an armstrong number");
      else
         System.out.println(m + "is not an armstrong number");
   }
}

Above all, the Central and State Governments and many dignitaries deserve gratitude for their co-operation and help interest in the development of the College and the Hospital.
In 1936, management of the medical school was handed over to the Arya Samaj, Saban Bazar, Ludhiana, under the aegis of Arya Pratinidhi Sabha, Punjab. A separate Managing Body was nominated by the Managing Committee of Arya High School, Ludhiana and it was shifted to its own building in 1937 (now, Dayanand Medical College & Hospital, College Campus).

The management of this college was taken over by a galaxy of prominent people of Ludhiana, who formed an organization known as the "Managing Society of Dayanand Medical College & Hospital, Ludhiana" and Late Shri H.R.Dhanda, a prominent industrialist of the town, became its Founder President.

About the concept and the exhibition
Thinking about the World through "Connectivity" and "Isolation"▼
While the world today is expanding beyond traditional frameworks, and various kinds of networks are growing, it is being shaken to its foundations by challenges such as conflict, refugees and immigration, and the emergence of protectionism, xenophobia, and populism. At the same time, the world is awash in data far exceeding the processing capacity of human beings, and in an increasingly complex and sophisticated environment where communication tools such as social media are developing rapidly, people appear to be banding together into small, disparate groups of "island universe" and communities. Also, there is increasingly assertive activity by a wide range of small-scale organizations that challenge the dictates of superpowers and centralized political systems.
Against this backdrop of widespread disruption of conventional social frameworks and values, Yokohama Triennale 2017 embarks on a multi-faceted examination, through art, of the themes of connectivity and isolation, under the title "Islands, Constellations & Galapagos." We will contemplate the world in which conflicting concepts and phenomena are intricately intertwined and constantly in flux, the nature of identity and diversity, and how the imagination and creativity of human beings can be used to derive a new vision and ground design for the future when our future remains uncertain. At the main venues ‒ Yokohama Museum of Art, Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse No. 1, and Yokohama Port Opening Memorial Hall ‒ works in diverse media by approximately 40 artists or groups from Japan and the world will be exhibited. It will resemble an aggregation of small solo exhibitions by a tightly selected number of artists, with many of them showing multiple works. This is intended to give the viewers a deeper understanding of individual artists' creative worlds, and at the same time, to embody the image of these worlds gradually connecting like stars or islands forming constellations and archipelagoes.
Participants include artists who consistently address issues with their own unique methods, and carry out activities that transcend existing frameworks and concepts, as well as collaborations among artists and projects that address pressing social issues from an artistic point of view. The themes dealt in their works are broad: some refer to the individual and society, the self and other, and states and national borders, utopia, and others question different historical views, human activities, and civilizations as well as specifically Japanese issues of isolation.
In the planning and conceptualizing stages, the Triennale has deepened the concept from various angles through a Conception Meeting that includes experts from different fields. Also, we are organizing the Yokohama Round, a series of dialogues also featuring experts from various fields, as a platform for discussions and sharing, and exploring ideas through both visual examination and dialogue. In addition, we will collaborate with the local educational institutions such as the Yokohama Graduate School of Architecture "Y-GSA", Yokohama National University and highlight historical sites in the city, seeking to approach the historical background of the opening of the port and the nation as a whole from multifaceted and locally grounded perspectives. While understanding how this present world came to be and where it stands at this moment, we hope that the Yokohama Triennale 2017 will encourage visitors to think about connecting today's memory to the future generations and ways of realizing co-existence in our society.

Looking at Artworks and Fathoming Thoughts on the World and
People to Survive this Convoluted Age▼
We now open the sixth edition of Yokohama Triennale, which was inaugurated in 2001.
In the last 16 years, we have seen a growth in the number of biennales and triennales, which have become a frequently-organized event in different places in and out of Japan; a flourishing landscape that could scarcely have been imagined when the first Yokohama Triennale was held in 2001. This year, the Venice Biennale and documenta will take place along with Skulptur Projekte Münster that occurs every 10 years. In Japan, in addition to Sapporo and Ichihara, the Japan Alps, Oku Noto, and Tanegashima are newly established.
Each of these international exhibitions and festivals are different in their history and size, therefore, not easily comparable. Yet given their rise in the number, since the fourth edition in 2011, we have given due consideration to the fact that Yokohama Museum of Art is the primary venue and the history of Yokohama overlaps with the Japanese modernization, in order to be unique and engage ourselves with communities in and outside of Japan.
We believe that biennales and triennales can provide opportunities to engage closely with the new expressions presented by the contemporary artists, foster multifaceted perspectives, and fathom thoughts on the world and people. Today, when conflicts are frequent and introversion is rampant, the inherent qualities of contemporary art including creativity, imagination, and the multiple perspectives, can be a guiding star in order for us to survive this convoluted world.
In preparing for this edition, we have taken a unique approach of inviting experts from different fields, including philosophy, math, anatomy, and sociology, among others for dialogues and discussions. In addition to the exhibition, we have various programs, including Yokohama Round, Yokohama Sites, Yokohama Program, Yokohama Screening all that connect various activities and practices, including hands-on workshops, walks, performances, film, among others.
We hope to seek new possibilities by connecting things that are different and isolate, through dialog, contemplation and imagination. We hope that through Yokohama Triennale 2017, we will see people opening up their wings of imagination and attaining fecundity that multiple perspectives offer us.

Yokohama and Triennale
From Yokohama, the First Port that Opened its Doors to the World▼
2017 marks the 150th year since the return of political power to the Emperor in 1867, which signified the collapse of the feudal system and the beginning of Japan's drastic modernization. With the restoration of Imperial sovereignty, Japan ceased to be a nation ruled by samurai, and the new Meiji Period (1868-1912) of rapid change began. One major factor contributing to this change was the opening of Japan's ports to overseas trade during the Ansei Era (1854-1860), after over centuries of enforced seclusion. The village of Yokohama, which had been no more than an impoverished hamlet during the Edo Period (1603-1868), was one of the new trading ports that opened in 1859, and its infrastructure rapidly developed. Inevitably, as a new international crossroads of trade, people, and culture, Yokohama became one of the cities leading Japan on its dramatic march away from Galapagos-like isolation, toward connectivity with the world, and eventually to modernization.
This edition of the Yokohama Triennale aims to examine the diverse issues we face today in a multidisciplinary fashion, drawing ideas from various perspectives closely tied to the overall theme, including "connectivity" and "isolation." One aspect of this will be a conscious focus on the historical background of Yokohama, which may seem at first glance to be unrelated to contemporary art. The selection as venues of historic buildings in the city that symbolize Japan's modernization, and the inclusion of artists that address Yokohama's historical record and topography, is also based on that viewpoint, as is our identification and introduction of several historical sites and facilities near the venue that seem to resonate deeply with the theme of this Triennale.

In the Yokohama Lounge, viewers can take a break during the exhibition to unwind, and also engage with information and ideas that served as inspiration when working out the Triennale's themes and concepts, as well as statements and proposals from the Conception Meeting members. These diverse "materials" may appear on the surface unrelated to the Triennale's theme, but we believe individual viewers will connect them via their own unique ideas and viewpoints, and embark on mental journeys with limitless possibilities by exploring their relation to the exhibited works.
Yokohama Triennale 2017's theme and main keywords are connectivity, isolation, co-existence, and diversity. We refer to facilities implementing projects and exhibitions linked to these keywords, and places and buildings with historical backgrounds as "Yokohama Sites," which are introduced here. Meanwhile, the artist Tamura Yuichiro combines several sites like stars and creates Constellation γ(Gamma), a narrative with a unique viewpoint. Visitors can view the story Tamura has woven in the former third-class dining hall of the ship NYK Hikawamaru moored in Yamashita Park. More detail here

Memoirs of a Good-for-Nothing
By Joseph von Eichendorff
Translated by Ronald Taylor
Memoirs of a Good-for-Nothing quantity
Eichendorff's prose masterpiece – a picaresque account of the wanderings of a young man who leaves home after a row with his father, and who eventually finds love with the girl of his dreams – is one of the best-known classics of German literature.
Deeply imbued with the style and sentiment of German Romanticism, and philosophical and poetic in its approach to nature and existence, Memoirs of a Good-for-Nothing is at once an exhilarating romp and a lively portrayal of nineteenth-century ideals.
SKU: 9781847494511 Category: German Classics Tags: Classic, Fiction, German classic, German Literature, literature, literature in translation, nature, nineteenth century, picaresque, poetic, romanticism
Eichendorff breathes the purity of the fairy tale and the folk song … a blithe and happy symbol, touching in his modesty, of a true humanity, a cultured, Romantic humanity
Joseph von Eichendorff
Despite leading a life of ordinary officialdom, Joseph von Eichendorff (1788–1857) was one of the most important German Romantic poets, also famous for his prose tales.

Lucas Ray is shocked when an adorable puppy jumps out of an abandoned building and into his arms. Though the apartment he shares with his mother, a disabled veteran, doesn't allow dogs, Lucas can't resist taking Bella home. Bella is inexplicably drawn to Lucas, even if she doesn't understand the necessity of games like No Barks. As it becomes more difficult to hide her from the neighbors, Lucas begins to sneak Bella into the VA where he works. There, Bella brings joy and comfort where it is needed most. After Bella is picked up by Animal Control because pit bulls are banned in Denver, Lucas has no choice but to send her to a foster home until he can figure out what to do. But Bella, distraught at the separation, doesn't plan to wait. With four hundred miles of dangerous Colorado wilderness between her and her person, Bella sets off on a seemingly impossible and completely unforgettable adventure home. A classic story of unwavering loyalty and incredible devotion, A Dog's Way Home is a beautifully told, charming tale that explores the unbreakable bond between us and our pets.

COVID-19Industry Insights
COVID-19 and the value of the travel agent
ATW Connect chats with the CEO of ASATA, Otto de Vries to find out how COVID-19 has affected the industry, what ASATA is doing to help members and what we should be doing now to safe guard our businesses.
What are the key challenges as a result of COVID-19 for the travel and tourism industry? Currently the key challenges are managing costs, focusing on supporting companies and their employees with leveraging the UIF and TERS funding and providing guidance on managing refunds and cancellations expectations of both customers and suppliers.
What are the key opportunities as a result of COVID-19 for the travel and tourism industry? Without a doubt the efforts of the industry over the past month and half has shown the value of engaging a travel professional when booking your travel. Those who went direct or through offshore online booking platforms, will know how hard it has been to get hold of anyone to assist with making changes or helping to manage cancellations and refunds. There is a massive opportunity for agents to position their value proposition to customer that have either never used a travel agent before or had chosen to abandon agents and gone direct in recent years. On the corporate side, helping companies implement practical and reliable duty of care and corporate travel strategies post COVID-19 will highlight the value of TMC in navigating an overload of information, especially around new health and safely protocols that are bound to be put into place to mitigate and manage exposure and transmission of diseases.
What should travel and tourism professionals be doing to protect their business during the COVID-19 pandemic? Communicate honestly and regularly with customers and staff. Consider and develop recovery plans, that meet future business needs. ASATA are currently developing a programme of support for our members that will help them develop appropriate strategies for their businesses, including future modelling with different scenarios, think tanks to unpack these models and then templates and expert forums to guide and support implementation. Companies must also consider staffing requirements in the short, medium, and long term and continue to carefully manage costs. Also now is the time to leverage all opportunities that exist within the COVID-19 funding and financial support options the government has made available.
What is ASATA doing currently to support the industry? In addition to the above,we have created a dedicated Coronavirus microsite. The platform provides information and updates from credible sources, including government, the WHO and suppliers. An ASATA Resources section covers content ASATA has developed, including guidelines, webinars and so forth. We encourage industry to use the resources we have made available on www.coronavirus.asata.co.za
How do we, as individuals or companies support the industry through the pandemic? Show empathy, be considerate, with honesty and transparency when discussing challenges with your partners, suppliers and customers, especially around payments due, refunds and cancellations and do everything you can to retain cash in your business.
What do you think travel and tourism will look like post COVID-19? This will require a lot of unpacking in terms of the various scenarios that could play out. The travel industry is diverse (leisure, corporate and government). We have some ideas, but it is bit like looking into a crystal ball right now. As we unpack the models with different scenarios, we will be better placed to share our thoughts on what we think the industry may look like.
Otto De Vries is the CEO of ASATA (Association of Southern African Travel Agents), past Chairman of the World Travel Agents Association Alliance (WTAAA) and board of the Tourism Business Council of South Africa (TBCSA). He has been active in the travel industry for 30 years, 20 of those in senior management roles in the inbound, retail and wholesale sectors. Otto is a WTAAA delegate to the IATA Passenger Agency Global Joint Council (PAPGJC) and currently Chairs the WTAAA Air Committee. Through the Council he has participated on several sub-committees, including the steering group on NDC Thought Leadership, the Transparency in Payment Advisory Group and the IATA ADM Working Group. Closer to home he actively participates in the Tourism Leadership Forum (TLF) and through the TBCSA worked on several committees that focused on the B-BBEE Tourism Sector Code amendments; amendments to the South African Immigration Act and the Market Access/ Regulatory Environment Working Committee of the Department of Tourism.

Synergy — Metropolitan Suite
(Voiceprint VP303CD, 1987/2003, CD)
Synergy — Semiconductor, Release 2
(Voiceprint VP302CD, 1984/2003, 2CD)
by Jon Davis, Published 1999-04-01
In 1986, the first era of Synergy releases came to an end with Metropolitan Suite, which in some ways is the culmination of Larry Fast's original musical vision. That does not make it necessarily the most successful, or even the best, but it does represent the distillation of his musical style. For all his electronic innovation, Fast is at heart a neo-classicist – his compositions owe more to Beethoven or even Gershwin than to Varèse. In the liner notes, Fast describes taking "detailing and orchestration" inspired by the architecture of New York in the early 1900s and interpreting them with modern electronic tools. Echoes of the Jazz Age and Copland's Americana abound in the grandiose themes. This new version presents all the big sounds with stunning clarity and great dynamic range.
Semiconductor was a collection released in 1984 representing the best of Larry Fast's Synergy recordings to date, starting with 1975's Electronic Realizations for Rock Orchestra and ending with The Jupiter Menace soundtrack in 1982. When it came time to remaster the old Synergy releases, Fast wisely decided to expand the collection to include work through Metropolitan Suite, summing up the era nicely. He also added an edit from one of the long ambient pieces from Computer Experiments Vol.1 and arranged the pieces in chronological order. For anyone curious about one of the true pioneers of electronic music, I can think of no better introduction.
