Body of War
"Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger. It works the same in every country." -Herman Goering at the Nuremberg trials Body of War, a film by Ellen Spiro and Phil Donahue, premiered at the Toronto International Film ...

Sex In The Noughties
"This expression of female sexuality was a total role reversal of the weeping into a chardonnay image that Bridgette Jones had given us and Abby Lee wasn't alone in thinking it. Thousands of women were agreeing with her." The blogs that consistently attracted massive readerships were the anonymous, confessional sex diaries written by women. From Belle De Jour to Bitchy Jones, these incredibly graphic female sex blogs gave an explicit insight into the secret desires of women, revealing what they really wanted in a way that had never been seen before. At the centre of this revolution was one British woman whose own brand of frank sexual confessions came to be read by millions, creating a publishing sensation in the process. This radical new ...
"On September 11, 1973, he was overthrown by a military coup... The dictator of Pinochet crushed that democracy which had perfected itself over two centuries, and destroyed, day after day, for 18 years, the country I knew. Thousands of Chileans were murdered and tortured and hundreds of thousands went into exile." This homage that Guzmán pays to Chile's ex-president reminds us of the radiant dream that a generation lived (where politics and utopia were synonyms). The piece is direct. It has no explicative or demonstrative information; rather, it offers a space for reflection that is human and personal and at the same time historical. The outcome is a generous film. "Salvador Allende" sold 120,000 tickets in France, with 34 copies in ...
Our Brand is Crisis
"I think the most important thing we can do is to be dedicated to this message and to figure out how we can make all of this…fit the frame, because I think if we are going to win this election it's because we've chosen the right frame. The frame for us is, you know, crisis…we must own crisis and we must brand crisis. Who can deal with it, who has the capacity to deal with it, and Goni as the guy who has strength and the plan." For decades, U.S. strategists-for-hire have been quietly molding the opinions of voters and the messages of candidates in elections around the world. They have worked for presidential candidates on every continent (in Britain, Israel, ...

Q: wi-fi turned off after some time on android 4.1 I have my phone to do some work with network, so I need to keep turn on wi-fi always and my phone shouldn't sleep. But sometimes wi-fi connection lost and I need to reconnect manuale, so I decided to use AlarmManager to reconnect each hour to my own wi-fi network.
But after 5-7 days my phone lost wi-fi. It's always "off" and I can't turn it on. I need to do software reset! Why it can happen? I have noticed that this problem appeared after I add some code to reconnect each hour to wi-fi network. So here it is.
I have some permissions in my manifest.xml
 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS"/>
 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WAKE_LOCK" />
 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" />
 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED" />
 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CHANGE_WIFI_STATE"/>

Also I have AlarmManager to plan my reconnection
    alarmIntent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, TimeReboot.class);

    alarmIntent.putExtra("type", 3);
    alarmIntent.setAction("actionReconnect");

    PendingIntent rpendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(MainActivity.this, 3, alarmIntent, 0);

    Calendar rcalendar = Calendar.getInstance();
    rcalendar.setTimeInMillis(System.currentTimeMillis());
    rcalendar.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 6);
    rcalendar.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 25);

    manager.cancel(rpendingIntent);
    manager.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, rcalendar.getTimeInMillis(),
            1000 * 60 * 60, rpendingIntent);

And here some code for reconnect in onRecieve method of my BroadcastReceiver class
            WifiConfiguration wifiConfig = new WifiConfiguration();
            wifiConfig.SSID = String.format("\"%s\"", desiredNetworkSSID);
            wifiConfig.preSharedKey = String.format("\"%s\"", modemwifipass);

            WifiManager wifiManager = (WifiManager) context.getSystemService(context.WIFI_SERVICE);
            //remember id
            int netId = wifiManager.addNetwork(wifiConfig);
            wifiManager.disconnect();
            wifiManager.enableNetwork(netId, true);
            wifiManager.reconnect();

Also I use have this code in my onCreate method of main activity
    wifi = (WifiManager)getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE);

    if(!wifi.isWifiEnabled()) {
         wifi.setWifiEnabled(true);

    }
    else
    {
         WifiInfo newInfo = wifi.getConnectionInfo();
    }

    // wi-fi always ON
    lock = wifi.createWifiLock(WifiManager.WIFI_MODE_FULL_HIGH_PERF, "LockTag");

    if (lock != null) {
        lock.acquire();
            }

    // shouldn't sleep!
    PowerManager pm = (PowerManager) getSystemService(Context.POWER_SERVICE);
    wl = pm.newWakeLock(PowerManager.SCREEN_DIM_WAKE_LOCK, "My Tag");

    if (wl != null) {
        wl.acquire();
            }

I have no idea where can be my problem?? Please any ideas??

A: I noticed that using WIFI_MODE_FULL_HIGH_PERF you don't need to keep the screen on, but it will consume more power.
However, if you really need to keep the screen on, I also noticed that SCREEN_DIM_WAKE_LOCK is a deprecated constant and they recommend using FLAG_KEEP_SCREEN_ON (but this will keep the screen bright).
Besides this, try to check in the logs for your "LockTag" when that forced disable happens (from the createWifiLock):

tag: a tag for the WifiLock to identify it in debugging messages. This string is never shown to the user under normal conditions, but should be descriptive enough to identify your application and the specific WifiLock within it, if it holds multiple WifiLocks.

The fact that the wi-fi is forcefully disabled makes me wonder if, by default, the system disables the wi-fi when it's locked for a prolonged use... The fact that you need to reset the software is disturbing. That may be a bug in Android.

Infantino sadness at passing of FIFA Council member, "football lover" Koutsokoumnis
FIFA President Gianni Infantino shares sadness at passing of Costakis Koutsokoumnis
Cypriot was elected to FIFA Council in April 2017
Has acted as Cypriot FA President since 2001
FIFA President Gianni Infantino has expressed sorrow at the death of long-time President of the Cyprus Football Association and FIFA Council member Costakis Koutsokoumnis. The 61-year-old died on Monday after a months-long battle with cancer. A long-time servant of Cypriot football, he was elected to the FIFA Council in April of last year.
"There's no word that can express how sorry and sad I am to hear about the passing away of Costakis Koutsokoumnis," President Infantino said after learning of the news. "I have known him for a long time and appreciated him very much.
"As a football lover, he has dedicated a large part of his life to our beautiful game, and we had the chance to have his competences to help us within the FIFA Council since last year. I can only regret this journey together has been far too short. Today, during this difficult moment, my thoughts are with his family to whom, on behalf of the FIFA Council and of the entire FIFA I offer my sincere condolences."
Koutsokoumnis started working in the Cyprus FA as vice-president and a head of the national teams department in 1994-95 before winning seven uncontested elections for President from 2001.
He also served as first vice-chairman of the UEFA's HatTrick Committee working to develop football for all and was a member of various other UEFA committees over the last two decades.

At CIDAN Machinery, we endeavor to bring our customers high-quality production start-to-finish. Since every sheet metal process line starts with a decoiler to hold and safely pay off or uncoil, controlling the speed, direction, and viability of your working material, we believe that it all starts with that machine.

As always, CIDAN Machinery believes in offering the options necessary to provide the machine that perfectly fits your needs. For easier loading and unloading, coil carts can be added to any of our machines. Plus, with four powered and three manual models, it's easy to find exactly what you are looking for to get your production process started on the right foot.
The CIDAN MANUAL decoiler comes in three different models; the DO 2-12 MANUAL decoiler with manually adjusted break system, single frame, and expandable mandrel, the DC 5 MANUAL decoiler with expandable mandrel and manually adjusted brake system, and the CRADLE with four supporting rolls, two side rolls, and fixture for transportation of pallet jack.


To reproduce boot a live session of Lubuntu. Then on the run command in the menu run lxsession-default webbrowser. Then the session will exit and you will be at a login screen.
Also note this this exits the session and on first try you can press enter at lightdm and log in. After that you can no longer log into a session if you run lxsession-default webbrowser again.
This does not happen on a daily build of utopic i386 on a desktop running lxsession 0.4.9.2+git20140410-0ubuntu2. And dbus 1.16.18-0ubuntu9. Which /usr/bin/lxsession-default uses dbus.send.
Same here but on an installed Lubuntu 14.04.1 LTS.
- execute command : "lxsession-default webbrowser"
I cannot reproduce this in a daily Vivid live session, so it may have been fixed in subsequent updates since occurring in Trusty/14.04 LTS. I'm still new to bug triage, so I will reach out and see what to do in this case.
I definitely can reproduce this on an up-to-date version of Trusty.
Will file an upstream bug.
I can reproduce this bug on a fully up-to-date version of Trusty.
It also happens when I type lxsession-default calculator or press the reload button in lxsession-default-apps for calculator.

Bollywood Celebrity Scandals: The Juiciest Controversies and Gossip
Bollywood Scandals and Controversies: A Look into the Dark Side of Indian Cinema
Bollywood Celebrity Scandals: The Juiciest Controversies and Gossip Breaking Bollywood Celebrity News: The Latest Gossip and Scandals
by rakeshsharma January 24, 2023 January 24, 2023 0201
Bollywood, the Indian film industry, has always been surrounded by scandals and controversies. From nepotism to drug abuse, the industry has seen it all. In this article, we take a look at some of the biggest scandals and controversies that have shocked Bollywood in recent years.
Nepotism in Bollywood
Nepotism, the practice of favoring relatives in the selection process, has been a long-standing issue in Bollywood. The industry is known for being dominated by a select few families, with actors and directors passing down their legacies to their children. This has led to a lack of opportunities for outsiders, who struggle to make a name for themselves in the industry.
The issue came to a head in 2017, when actor Kangana Ranaut spoke out against nepotism in Bollywood during a talk show. Her comments sparked a nationwide debate and led to many in the industry being called out for their actions.
Drug Abuse in Bollywood
Image Credit – DNAINDIA
Drug abuse has also been a major issue in Bollywood. In 2020, the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) launched an investigation into drug use in the film industry following the death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput. The investigation led to the arrest of several high-profile actors and directors, including actor Rhea Chakraborty, who was charged with procuring drugs for Rajput.
The scandal brought to light the extent of drug use in Bollywood and the need for stricter regulations in the industry.
Sexual Harassment in Bollywood
Sexual harassment has been a long-standing problem in Bollywood, with several women coming forward with their stories in recent years. The #MeToo movement in India, which began in 2018, led to several powerful men in the industry being called out for their actions.
Notable examples include director Vikas Bahl, who was accused of sexual harassment by several women, and actor Nana Patekar, who was accused of sexual harassment by actor Tanushree Dutta.
Bollywood, like any other industry, has its fair share of scandals and controversies. From nepotism to drug abuse, the industry has seen it all. However, it is important to note that these issues are not unique to Bollywood and are present in other industries as well. It is crucial for the industry to address these issues and work towards creating a safer and more inclusive environment for all.

De Graventoren in Rupelmonde is een overblijfsel van de waterburcht uit de 12de eeuw die werd gebouwd door de graven van Vlaanderen ter verdediging van de Schelde en de Rupel.

Geschiedenis

In de 12de eeuw bouwden de graven van Vlaanderen ter verdediging van de Schelde en de Rupel een kolossale vesting omgeven door een brede wal, die rechtstreeks in verbinding stond met de Schelde. Aangezien indertijd bijna alle transport nog via water gebeurde, waren deze rivieren van zeer groot economisch belang.

In 1254 werd het kasteel in opdracht van Margaretha van Vlaanderen aanzienlijk uitgebreid en vond het archief van het graafschap Vlaanderen er een veilig onderkomen. Ook in de volgende eeuw bleven de opeenvolgende graven de burcht regelmatig renoveren. Rond 1330 trachtte graaf Lodewijk I met allerlei voorrechten de urbanisatie van Rupelmonde te stimuleren, maar opeenvolgende conflicten fnuikten haar groei. Een laatste grote renovatiecampagne vond plaats tijdens de Vlaamse Opstand (1379-1385), waarbij het kasteel min of meer haar uitzicht behield tot in de 17de eeuw, zoals te zien is op de gravure van het kasteel in Sanderus' Flandria illustrata.

In het kasteel werden de charters en keuren van Vlaanderen bewaard. In 1564 gingen ze bijna in vlammen op bij een ontsnappingspoging van de reformator Jan Hendrickx. In 1583 werd de burcht door Servaas van Steelant overgedragen aan de Spaanse veldheer Alexander Farnese. Een tegenaanval van Filips van Marnix van Sint-Aldegonde mislukte. De burcht bleef tot in 1647 in gebruik als staatsgevangenis, maar werd in de decennia daarna stelselmatig gesloopt.

Het kasteel vormde de achtergrond van verschillende historische terechtstellingen en gevangenisstraffen. Hier liet Robrecht III van Vlaanderen zijn oudste zoon Lodewijk I van Nevers arresteren op beschuldiging van hoogverraad omdat deze de zijde van de Franse koning had gekozen. Hij zou ternauwernood aan onthoofding zijn ontsnapt door de oplettendheid van kastelein Jean de Verrières. In 1338 werd Zeger van Kortrijk, bondgenoot van Gwijde van Dampierre, er op bevel van de koning van Frankrijk onthoofd en hield Filips de Goede de gemaal van Jacoba van Beieren, Frank van Borssele, in 1432 in hechtenis op het kasteel. Tot slot zat ook Mercator er in 1544 gedurende zeven maanden gevangen op beschuldiging van ketterij.

Door de lange strijd van Spanje en de Verenigde Provinciën tegen Frankrijk, werd het Gravenkasteel in 1678 opnieuw ernstig vernield en werden de nog bruikbare bouwmaterialen gerecupereerd door de plaatselijke bevolking. Zo werd materiaal van de burcht gebruikt bij de bouw van de plaatselijke Onze-Lieve-Vrouw-Bezoekingkerk. Hoewel het middeleeuwse Gravenkasteel nooit werd hersteld, deed het nog tot 1748 dienst als militaire verschansing. In 1817 werden in opdracht van baron Guillaume de Feltz (1744-1820), schoonvader van graaf Philippe Vilain XIIII, de laatste bouwresten van de burchtruïne opgeruimd en werd op de oorspronkelijke torenvoet van Doornikse kalksteen een bakstenen jachtpaviljoen opgetrokken.

Op initiatief van de Antwerpse romancier Lode Baekelmans en de dichter Bert Peleman werd er in 1955 een Schelde- en Mercatormuseum ingericht.  De torentinne biedt vandaag de dag aan de bezoekers van het museum een spectaculair zicht op de Scheldevallei.

In 2023 werden de Graventoren en getijdemolen voor 27 jaar in erfpacht gegeven aan Toerisme Vlaanderen.

Often parents of prematurely born infants fear that their children may find it difficult in school. But the results of a new large-scale study by the Northwestern University dispel these fears and reassure parents.The study analyzed 1.3 million infants born between 1992 and 2002 in Florida, with gestational ages between 23 to 24 weeks, who in the period between 1995 and 20012 attended Florida public schools.
They found that two-thirds of prematurely born babies at 23 or 24 weeks became ready for KG at the right time. And, unbelievably, almost 2% of them excelled in school, and most of them demonstrated high degree of cognitive functioning. Though this group usually scored low on standardized tests, those prematurely born babies at 25 weeks or thereafter performed just a bit lower than full term babies.
In fact, with increasing length of pregnancy after 28 weeks, there were negligible differences in test scores. Parents of premature infants therefore need not worry about their child's future educational outcomes. The researchers in their future work will concentrate on how service-providers and parents can aid future premature children to attain their full potential, said one of the researchers.

Welcome to the Machine...
An intermittant interface into my head
My President
datan0de
While I can still say this…
I love my President. He's a good, decent, compassionate, thoughtful person, and a brilliant, deep thinker. He's imminently competent, and fully understands the complexities of the job and the subtleties of domestic and international policy.
He is flawed. There are things he's failed to do. On more than one occasion he has disappointed me, either through his actions or his lack of action. There are critical issues facing our nation and our world to which I think he's given far too little attention, and in some cases I believe that that's helped to bring us to what's coming. But I've never doubted his motivations, his qualifications, or his ability. I understand that, with over 300 million constituents, he cannot please everyone, and he will not always please me, but he's done a far, far better job than I expected, and his accomplishments in office include things I didn't think I'd see in my natural lifetime.
I've never once thought "I could do a better job" or "I'm smarter than this guy."
He has brought dignity and respect to his office, and by extension to the United States. I'm so very proud to have voted for him (twice), and to have him represent me to the world. I think that history will look back upon his presidency as an enormous success, and I'm happy to have lived through this time.
Thanks, Obama.

Revolt in the Boardroom The New Rules of Power in Corporate America
Authors: Alan Murray
Throughout the 20th century, American corporations were governed by autocratic, almost unaccountable chief executives. Their word was law, and the only check on their power was a board of directors composed of their friends and allies. Then, in a stunning reversal, a momentous series of firings deposed the heads of some of the world's best-known companies. In Revolt in the Boardroom, Alan Murray examines the new world of corporate power. Using the access afforded to him by his influential Wall Street Journal column, Murray tells the story of three seminal board revolts: the now-famous Hewlett-Packard drama, the ousting of Boeing's Harry Stonecipher, and the deposing of one of the world's…
most autocratic executives, Hank Greenberg, from AIG.
Alan Murray is the Washington bureau chief of the "Wall Street Journal", a columnist for "SmartMoney" magazine, and a twice-daily commentator on CNBC. He is the author, with Jeffrey Birnbaum, of "Showdown at Gucci Gulch". He lives in Washington, D.C.

Dwelling on the details
With no change in rates, technical adjustments the only news from the Fed today.
Published 01-29-2020 January 29 2020
Susan Hill, CFA®
Senior Portfolio Manager, Head of Government Liquidity Group
The Federal Reserve kept monetary policy unchanged today, maintaining the fed funds target range at 1.5%-1.75%. It did, and said, nothing to change expectations that policy will be on hold for a while. The majority of the action came from the press conference. Chairman Jerome Powell characterized policy as being well-positioned, with the expansion in its 11th year and the pace of job gains solid. Although noting there is more clarity with respect to trade and cautious signs that sluggish global growth may be stabilizing, Powell said uncertainties remain. He identified the potential impact of the coronavirus as one of these, but emphasized it was too early to know what the effects could be on domestic or global growth. With respect to inflation, officials of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) expect it to move closer to 2% as low readings from last year drop out of the year-over-year calculation. But Powell emphasized that many FOMC participants would not be satisfied with inflation readings running below 2%.
The Fed did make technical adjustments to two of its administered rates, raising the interest on excess reserves (IOER) from 1.55% to 1.60% and the rate on the reverse repo facility from 1.45% to 1.5%. These adjustments were intended to keep the fed funds rate within the established target range (recently, it had drifted to the low end). We anticipate repo rates to trade incrementally higher as a result.
During the press conference, Powell also spoke at length about and fielded several questions related to the volatility in the repo market in September. He characterized the Fed's response to the situation through the use of temporary and permanent operations as "prompt, decisive action."
He confirmed the Fed would be continuing with temporary open market operations at least through April. The Fed's permanent operations, consisting of the purchasing of Treasury bills, will continue into the second quarter. At that point, policymakers expect reserves to return to a level considered plentiful enough to avert frequent intervention. The minimal level apparently is around $1.5 trillion. Powell said that the Fed had not made a decision about the need for a standing repo facility at this point, and that it continues to study the role regulation may have played in the repo-market dislocations.

Understanding Russia's identity through Olympic ceremonies
Kramareva, N and Grix, J ORCID: https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7315-1641 (2022) Understanding Russia's identity through Olympic ceremonies. European Journal for Sport and Society. ISSN 1613-8171
File will be available on: 4 August 2023.
Official URL: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/16138...
This paper focuses on the comparative (mis-)interpretation of the 1980 Moscow and 2014 Sochi Olympic ceremonies by media outlets located in Great Britain and the USA, Russia's 'significant others'. Further, the paper attempts to uncover the most persistent facets of Russia's identity–by decoding culturally-specific meanings of the signs and symbols in both ceremonies–and to trace which aspects of its national narrative Russia had to let go eventually in the course of the 34 years that separate the two Olympics. This is undertaken by a documentary analysis of 'Western' media between the periods of 20 July and 6 August for Moscow and 7–23 February for Sochi–time frames when the direct coverage of the ceremonies took place. Our key findings suggest that instead of enabling Russia to validate a new national identity and image the Western media only helped to reproduce resilient reciprocal national identities. Furthermore, it was the Sochi Olympics as Russia's biggest soft power party to date, not the aftermath, which, not least through a transformative attendant media response/framing from both sides, became the closing chapter of the Russian-Western interdependent identity construction in the early 21st century. Thus, apart from placing the spotlight on Russia's evolving identity and interests, this paper also investigates how the USA's and the UK's media resisted Russia's (Soviet) soft power strategy, whilst in the process solidifying their own identities and promoting their strategic narratives.

Singing one More Song
Yesterday was the 21st birthday celebration of Hanson as a band and their music.
At the Irving Plaza in New York City, Hanson held a birthday party with their fans while the music and media world watched slightly from the sides, a little in awe and a lot in admiration of the moment.
Hanson Irving Plaza
21st birthdays are perhaps clichéd in their promise of independence and freedom. Certainly for Hanson, the keys to control of their own decisions and freedom of expression were acquired a long time ago. For them the 21st birthday was more of a statement and celebration of where they have been, ready for the launch towards the boundaries of song that is album 6 – Anthem.
In searching for references to being 21, an interesting quotation from Benjamin Franklin showed up. Franklin was one of the Founding Fathers of the United States. He was an author, scientist and politician.
He is famous among other things for his theories regarding electricity and guess what? He invented the lightning rod. You get the connection don't you?
His observation on being 21 is,
"At twenty years of age, the will reigns; at thirty, the wit; and at forty, the judgment."
This quote certainly resonates with Hanson as since even before they were in their early 20s, their story has been one of fierce determination to succeed, be independent, say what they mean and do it all with astuteness and humour.
Now at the ages of 32, 30 and 27, the brothers Hanson bring keen intelligence and inventiveness to the creative table with the new album Anthem.
This can be seen in the music, which brings together and develops their love of certain sounds as well as in the clever way that they have promoted and launched the record.
As this is being written, Anthem is #4 in the pop charts and #24 in the general charts on ITunes.
If Franklin was right, when Hanson as individuals reach 40, they will be drawing on their experiences and judging the moments with even greater precision – the promise of that must excite and inspire although exactly what that will look like for fans of their music – only time will tell.
The set list from last night's party took the music from Middle of Nowhere, opening up with "Thinking of you" – the first track on that album, to "Scream and be Free" from Anthem.
This song invites the listener to trust the inspiration of the moment, follow their passions and shape their own story, with Hanson as their muse.
Throughout the evening Hanson sang the songs that have been statements of their own story – including This Time Around, Strong enough to Break and Great divide.
An interesting note is that Hanson did not end the party with a face melting rock number but with the gentler "Been there before" from their 2007 album, The Walk.
This is an unapologetic reference to their musical inspirations and journey.
It suggests that Hanson know in their bones that experiences bring you back to the same place, the same moment, time after time.
Hanson would say that in many ways they are no different now to how they were 21 or 16 years ago.
Their passions are the same, the influences are similar, the energy draws from the same inspiration and the music is simply an evolution.
Maybe Hanson and Franklin have something in common – something more than just the ability to play with fire and electricity – The capacity for exploration that leads to invention and discovery.
Credit Hanson
Anthem is the present shape of that exploration. It is familiar and yet it is new.
It speaks for Hanson now.
Tonight Hanson will perform Anthem and the shape of that exploration will be experienced by everyone there.
For some people it will be a revelation. Many others will know that they've been here before.
But somehow – it was never quite like this.
And know it for the first time."
T.S. Eliot — "Little Gidding"

Die Villa Majorelle ist ein ehemaliges Wohngebäude in Nancy. Es wurde 1901/02 im Stil der École de Nancy erbaut und gilt als herausragendes Beispiel für die Art nouveau in Frankreich. Das Gebäude steht seit 1975 als Monument historique unter Denkmalschutz.

Geschichte

Im Jahr 1898 beauftragte der Möbeldesigner und Unternehmer Louis Majorelle die jungen Architekten Henri Sauvage und Lucien Weissenburger mit dem Bau eines Wohnhauses. es war das erste Projekt des 24-jährigen Sauvage. Weissenburger, der später einer der bedeutendsten Vertreter der École de Nancy wurde, hatte bereits die Fabrik der Majorelles erbaut.

Wie viele andere Unternehmer in Nancy ließ Majorelle die Villa an der Straße zu seinem Unternehmen errichten, umgeben von einem 3,5 ha großen Park. Das große Grundstück in einem damals neuen Teil der Stadt hatte ihm seine Schwiegermutter geschenkt. Aufgebaut hatte das Unternehmen Majorelles Vater Auguste. Seit 1860 produzierte man vor allem Möbel.

Nach dem Tod von Majorelle erwarb der Staat das Gebäude und nutzte es als Bürogebäude Die Villa steht seit 1975 als Monument historique unter Denkmalschutz, der 1996 erweitert wurde. 2016/17 wurde das Äußere des Gebäudes renoviert.

Die Möbel des Schlafzimmers befinden sich heute im Museum der École de Nancy. Die Villa kann nach Voranmeldung im Musée de l'École de Nancy besichtigt werden. Bis 2020 ist das Gebäude aber aufgrund von Sanierungsarbeiten im Inneren geschlossen.

Architektur

Die dreistöckigen Villa von Sauvage und Weissenburger wurde im Jugendstil errichtet. Auffällig sind die großen Bogenfenster und die floralen Motive im Außenbereich. Majorelle selbst fertigte die Schmiedearbeiten sowie die Inneneinrichtung, die Täfelung und die breite Treppe.

Das Gebäude ist leicht asymmetrisch errichtet worden. Der Haupteingang sitzt an der Nordostecke. In der Hauptfassade sitzt daneben ein geschwungener Risalit der weit aus dem Baukörper ragt und das Treppenhaus aufnimmt. Im Erdgeschoss sitzt in der Schaufassade eine breite Auslucht, die erst später errichtet wurde. Zuvor war hier eine große Terrasse mit Balustrade gebaut worden. Auffällig war hier der Eingang zum Haus, der von einem riesigen Oval gebildet wurde. Darüber sitzen zwei Zwerchhäuser. Dem größeren ist ein Balkon vorgelagert, der von auffälligen vegetabilen Schmiedeeisenarbeiten getragen wird. An der Westfassade sitzt hier eine hölzerne Loggia. Auffällige Fayencen schmücken die Fassade. An vielen Stellen ist das Haus mit schmiedeeisernen Arbeiten geschmückt. Ungewöhnlich sind die Fallrohre der Regenrinne, die durch geschmiedete und gefaltete Metallbefestigungselemente gehalten werden, die Blätter von Wasserpflanzen nachahmen. Die aufwendig gestalteten Fenster stammen von dem Pariser Glasmaler Jacques Grüber. Die Wandmalereien schufen Francis Jourdain und Henri Royer. Im Zentrum des Esszimmers steht ein monumentaler keramischer Kamin, geschaffen von Alexandre Bigot.

Im Erdgeschoss waren vor allem ein Vestibül, ein großer Salon und ein Esszimmer untergebracht, im ersten Obergeschoss mehrere Schlafzimmer. Im obersten Stockwerk hatte sich Majorelle ein Atelier eingerichtet.

This popular chorus, written by Jimmie Davis and Charles Mitchell, echoes across Bay Path University's Longmeadow campus every year as the sun rises on the first day of classes for a 23-year-old tradition known as Campus Awakening.
Hundreds of University faculty, staff, and students participate in the event. Led by President Carol Leary, Campus Awakening is a candlelit walk across campus early in the morning signifying the start of the fall semester, highlighted by stops at various locations where faculty light torches, symbolizing their role in igniting a passion for learning in students.
The tradition began when, in a gesture of fun, a group of students woke the President and campus community to gather and celebrate the morning sunrise. It quickly became a beloved rite on the first official day of classes.
Opening remarks by Anne Chapdelaine, the University's new Dean of Students and Director of Persistence, were given to a larger-than-ever crowd, gathered in front of Blake Student Commons and brimming with excitement. Chapdelaine emphasized the strong sense of community present at Bay Path, and, appropriately, focused on Blake as a hub for some of the most important moments in the students' college experiences. She emphasized that this event would be only the first of many times the campus community would come together at this location to share in happy moments and make memories.
After the procession across campus, participants surrounded Deepwood Circle, where the event ended with closing remarks from Provost Melissa Morriss-Olson, and Student Government Association President Victoria Thomas, before a community breakfast—in Blake Student Commons, of course!

guntrog , tell me what's wrong with listening to Pat Benatar or any other singer or group from different decades. What's your purpose of mocking her ?
It seems to me that you'd prefer to listen to some Hebrew music. I don't mind. That's your choice. You must be a very shallow minded person unless you are just attempting to sideline the real issue.
Thanks to BlackCloudSky and HAZ for dropping by. How R U ???

"New miracle weight loss plan- The Bradley Diet"
A few weeks ago, some Iraqi with an AK47 climbed onto a stationary M2 Bradley in Baghdad. The crew knocked him off the Bradley with their turret then proceeded to run in over.
When asked why they ran him over, the crew responded, "We wanted to save ammo."
Guntrog, Are not Trogs extinct.
In the land Rachel came from Bulldozers did not run over young women. Women and young children were not regularly killed. Peoples lives mattered.
If a big D9 bulldozer were not being used as an instrument of terrorism it would not make sense to get in front of it.
But the big D9 bulldozer was being used as an instrument of oppression. If one feels strongly enough against that use it may make sense to get in front of the bulldozer, in the belief that the driver will be morally obliged to stop and not kill you. Or you may not be sure that that the driver will stop, but that your death and martyrdom will result in some improvement to the situation you object to.
Perhaps Rachael thought that an Israeli Zionist D9 bulldozer would not run over an American girl. Perhaps she was so struck by the atrocities carried out by the Israeli Zionist IDF that she no longer cared whether she died. Perhaps she took a terrible risk.
Rachael Corries death gives a message to the world that we should not ignore. Israel has created Israhell in Palestine. We have to know what goes on in Palestine.
If you are Israeli or Jewish GunTrog; then if you do not care about the death of another human being, why should we in the UK or anyone in the USA support nasty Zionism, which is a heresy against God.
By Amos Harel, Haaretz Correspondent, and Haaretz Staff "
There is no way anyone can be definitive about whether the bulldozer driver saw the girl or not. We are only able to make the best assumption we can, about what the was in the mind of the bulldozer driver. But it seems incredulous from the accounts of her fellow solidarity workers that he did not see her. I can see no reason not to believe their account of what happened.
We should then ask whether the people judging this matter are impartial and just. For example, if a street gang attack an innocent person on the street, you not normally get their freinds to act as judge and jury.
What makes a person impartial and just. Then you have to ask about his moral and religious beliefs. so we have to then address ourselves as to what the rabbis teach young Israelis.
From what I have seen 'accidental' death of solidarity workers seems to be very common. In fact far too common. Further it appears that rabbis teach young Israelis that being a jew makes one special. The inference is that other races are inferior and not chosen by God. And that the land of Israel has been given to the jews and Israel is the Torah. In this respect see references to the origin of many or a majority of jews as being descended from Kazars, and not from Jacob, Abraham etc. One might infer that the army do not care about the death/manslaughter/murder of Rachael Corrie. They may actually convince themselves that it was not murder. Certainly they are not impartial or just, not in my definition of justice.
Poor Rachael came from a place where the life of one protestor did matter, and bulldozers did stop. This is true even when whether we empathise with the protestor or not; whether we like or approve of the protestor or not; whether the protestor is an absolute nuisance or not. In the West much of our media do not tell us about what happens in Palestine. But they certainly tell us about Suicide bombers and 'terrorists' Do we forget that Begin was a terrorist who garrotted British troops.
According to Guntrog (what an appropiate name) taking such a risk was remarkably silly. Rachale Corrie could have walked away from the situation. But Palestinians cannot walk away. A martyr's death is either insane or brave according to the value system by which you judge such an act. Here in the UK I hear repeatedly 'How can muslims who say they believe in God justify suicide bombing and terrorism' Yet such a statement is made without knowing/considering the extreme and terrible duress the people of Palestine are under. It is made from the point of view of a person who is not under emotional distress, whose rationalistic argument does not include our (mans) emotional nature. Without having experienced such anger he is unable to understand, and can never do so.
From the number of deaths of Palestinians, and the fact that the IDF is not particularly worried about the deaths of 'innocent' Palestinians, women and children, and the inconvenient deaths of Palestinian Solidarity Workers, my view is that it is impossible to prove murder in each of such circumstances: Yet indifference to life in such circumstances amounts to collective mass murder.
One might be inclined to believe that Zionists believe such distress will further suppress the 'Arabs' as they call them.
To have settlements dotted throughout Palestine must be considered deliberately provocative. This is based on the religious belief that all of the land of Israel belong to the Jews. I hear many Christians in this contry echo this belief. Again, see references in this forum about Kazars, and the racial origin of many Jews.
Again and again we come back to the fact that our religious beliefs and predjudices matter. Perhaps we should remember that Jesus told us "You shall know them by their deeds" and in thinking about people of different religions, when asked "Who is your neighbour, he quoted the parable of the good Samaritan" It is not what belief system we say we subscribe to, but that force of knowing what is right and wrong and the right thing to do. These are emotional forces that we cannot measure. But we can certainly see their effect.
The fact is that we will never really know what was in the mind of the bulldozer driver who ran over Rachael. Was he one of a few extremist zionists willing to carry out murder, or was he really so stupid and ignorant he did not see her. If deliberate was he instructed to do this, or was it done on his own accord. Certainly we can be fairly sure that he knew he would not be judged harshly by the Israeli IDF. From the religious basis of Zionism one cannot regard the Israeli IDF as Impartial. Perhaps we might recall Stalins remark that one death is a tragedy. A million deaths is a statistic. Therefore mone might say that the IDF is not bothered about the deaths of Palestinians or Europeans.
To my mind this is permitted murder.
To my my mind a religion which permits murder is wrong. That is not the will of God.
We in the west permit it. Many 'Christians' believe the whole of the land of Israel belongs to the Jews.
A lot of this is not just the facts that are reported in our media, but the coloration that is present, but which affects us subconsciously. The subconscious way we perceive Israel and Palestine goes to a tribal belief in who we see as tribal freinds and tribal foes. What is taught us about Judaic and Islamic belief systems teaches us who are our tribal freinds and foes. This happens from our childhood. As adults we are not aware of the subsconscious way in which this affects us. So many of the views I held about Israel and Paestine, Judaism Christianity and Islam I have found to be false. It is not so easy to discard long held beliefs. But the accumulation of evidence is overwhelming.
Why should Israel dictate so much US and UK policy? Why should we let Zionist beliefs lead us to disaster? Israel cannot survive with its current Palestinian policy without massive support from the USA and UK. That palestinian policy is driven by the false beliefs of Zionism. And if the Kazar origin of many jews is correct that zionist belief system which states that the whole of the land of Israel belongs to the Jews is based on a falsehood.
Perhaps it is appropiate to end by saying that in response to the events of Sept 11th, the Iraq war was an act of global terrorism. As a result the world is not safer. Certainly the events of Sept 11th put the USA in a state where the USA has been driven almost entirely by emotion rather than reason. This has allowed an allience of neocons, fundamentalist christians,and zionists to get a much deeper grip on the USA, and to a lesser extent the UK. We see increasing signs of violence due to the crassly inept and insensitive handling of post war Iraq.
We come again that we need media who tell us the truth, not just a part of the truth. Or are we happy to be like animals prodded, goaded, and manipulated by our emotions.
This just shows that it is impossible to prove murder, because you are trying to determine what was in the mind of the person who enacted the killing of the victim.
But it is very difficult to believe the driver was not aware of the girls presence. I have no reason not to believe the account of the other solidarity workers.
Additionally deaths of solidarity workers appear to be very frequent occurances, and it becomes no surprise to hear of another.
Re the Driver; think on the concepts of; deliberate / deliberately careless / did not care.
Re the IDF commanders; think on the concepts of instructed, allowed to happen, permitted, ignored, indifferent, rather like it to happen, convenient, but never outrightly stated.
Conclusion; - An indifferent attitude to the lives of other people amounts to constructive murder.
Fact is; Ariel Sharon wants to hound the Palestinians till they have no spirit to fight. That is what zionist rabbis teach Israelis.
Zionists believe Israel is the Torah, and the whole of Israel belongs to the Jews.
They put this belief above that of the life of foreigners who interfere with what they regard as a religious right. i.e to hound the Palestinians out of Israel.
Israel cannot exist with its Zionist policies without massive support from the USA. Frankly it has to manipulate the USA and UK to support it.
Why should we support such a religion that has no regard for the lives of other people?
Control of the media; to have freinds who will edit away inconvenient bits must be one of the greatest affronts to liberty that can exist.
When will we (mankind) do something about this. When will we stop being sheep. Yet we should not act in anger, but with a cold grim determination that we will not tolerate deception.
To know what goes on in Palestine; to understand is crucial. That is the cause of so much frustration by Islamic people. This does not mean we approve of terrorism and suicide bombing. But one has to know the anger these people feel. You can only know this from experience. That experience is not nice. But to know means we do not approve of the terrorism that is carried out by Israel.
Without correct information we can neither think nor act correctly.
Again, my parents taught me not to play in front of big tractors.
"Every time we do something, you [Shimon Peres] tell me America will do this and will do that... I want to tell you something very clear: Don't worry about American pressure on Israel. We, the Jewish people, control America, and the Americans know it."
Prescott Bush, Ford family, Rockefeller Foundation, others supported nazis and nazi ideas.
So what does that make the U.S.?
KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) -- A French United Nations worker was shot and killed Sunday in Afghanistan by a man on a motorcycle who opened fire on her U.N. vehicle, an official said. She was first U.N. staff member slain in Afghanistan since the fall of the Taliban regime.

Why don't you publicize horrific crimes perpetrated against non-Arabs (Berbers, sub-Saharan Blacks, Kurds, Assyrians, and other indigenous groups) by Arabs in Algeria, Lybia, Iraq, and Syria? What about the genocide that is being waged by the Arabs in Sudan? Why don't you condemn that?

A fever is a sign that your body is trying to overcome an illness or underlying infection. Viruses and bacterial infections are notorious for causing fevers, but there are other medical problems such as autoimmune disorders and severe dehydration that can trigger a fever. In a healthy adult, a normal, oral temperature reading should be above 97 degrees F, but below 99 degrees F. One degree above 99 degrees F is considered a fever in an adult.
Some illnesses produce a low-grade fever of about 101 degrees F on an oral thermometer, which can easily be treated with hydrating liquids and plenty of rest and relaxation. A fever of 102 degrees F may require the addition of an over-the-counter fever reducer such as acetaminophen to assist the body in bringing the fever down. But, when an adult's temperature begins to spike at 103 degrees F and above, Banner Health reports, that there may be a cause for concern.
A spiking fever can be dangerous and often requires medical intervention, especially if the high fever lasts for more than 72 hours. According to the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC), when a high fever persists, it can be dangerous. It can also be a sign that a serious medical condition is present. A call to the adult's primary care physician is recommended in order to obtain a diagnosis as well as the necessary medications for lowering the fever.
Contrary to popular belief, a temperature does not have to be high to be dangerous. In fact, a low-grade fever can be just as serious, especially if it persists for several weeks. The Mayo Clinic explains that a low-grade fever can indicate something as simple as an infection in the urinary tract or an illness that is more severe. Lymphomas and other types of cancers can manifest as low-grade fevers, which can often be controlled with medications once the illness is revealed.
The symptoms that accompany a fever can be just as dangerous as the fever itself. In fact, University of Virginia Health Systems reports that listlessness, abnormal breathing, rashes and a stiff neck should be addressed immediately by medical personnel. High fevers can also cause confusion and seizures in adults, which also require immediate medical attention.
Adults who travel outside of the United States should pay close attention to fevers that occur while they are out of the country and even those that manifest after they have returned home. For a recent traveler, a fever as low as 101 degrees F, can be dangerous. According to eMedicineHealth, travel outside the United States can expose an individual to a variety of toxins, diseases and bacterium that can cause illnesses that result in fever. Therefore, an adult who experiences a fever after traveling should seek medical attention immediately in order to determine the fever's root cause.

I have a query regarding mesh element.
In solidworks Simulation we are using tetrahedral mesh elements; these can be varied by changing the aspect ratio.I have heard use of Hexagonal mesh elements in some other meshing softwares, i wanted to know it's charachterstics.
Does anyone have any info regarding where these hexagonal mesh elements are used, what advantage or disadvantage it has over tetraheral elements?
Does solidworks has any option for hexagonal element?
You can mesh with hexagonal elements in the GeoStar interface that comes with Simulation Premium. A disadvantage for the hexagons is that meshing is semi-automatic, at best, but the tetrahedron meshing algorithms are pretty-much completely automatic. I have read several white papers claiming the accuracy of the tetrahedra can be matched with the hexahedra based on particular conditions, to include use of parabolic displacement functional (second order tetrahedron) and adjustments in mesh density to observe convergence. You probably should check with your VAR about getting the CAD model into GeoStar (also known as "COSMOSM") interface, and you can attempt to mesh with hexagons there. Hope that helps.
Thanks Anthony for the valuable information shared.

Porter Davis Homes are Melbourne's 3rd largest volume builder that construct around 1,600 homes per year. They have over 35 display homes located across Melbourne offering a range of designs and price points that attract over 8,000 people every month.
The problem Porter Davis faced was the large volume of people that visit the displays and request more information. Buying a new home is the biggest decision making process anyone will ever make, so ensuring the prospect has the information they desire to make an informed choice about what to build and who to build it is very important. The sales people were only focusing on the people that were there and ready to buy that day. The ones that wanted more information or had just started learning about building a new home were often pushed aside.
In order to better capture and communicate to prospects that visit the display homes, lead capture forms were created that would allow the sales team to capture prospect information. This information was then entered into Act! and allowed the sales people to segment their database into a variety of different categories such as interested home design, budget, land estate interest and purchase timeframes.
Act!'s emarketing tool was used to communicate, filter and qualify leads. By continually sending out emails to leads regarding new house designs or new land estates, we could measure email opens and create hot lists which ranked the lead depending on what they had clicked on in the email. This was an essential follow-up tool for the sales consultants because it eliminated the fear of 'cold calling'.
"One of the biggest benefits is that now everything is being created centrally by marketing with the ability to send on behalf of other sales people." Relationship selling is very important in the property industry and people will buy from the most knowledgeable and trust worthy sales people. Emarketing with Act! helps create this relationship and delivers the message in a professional and sophisticated manner.
