NovumIP to join global IP solution provider Questel
Amsterdam, Munich, 8 March 2021 – NovumIP and its companies Novagraaf and PAVIS announced today that they will be joining Questel, after the IP solutions provider acquired a majority stake in the business from private equity firm, Paragon Partners.
The parties anticipate that the closing will take place in or around July 2021, after definitive approval from the relevant financial supervisory and antitrust authorities. Paragon Partners, the private equity firm that supported the launch of NovumIP, will become an investor in Questel, as a mark of its confidence in the market potential of Questel with its new additions.
PAVIS and Novagraaf joined forces to establish NovumIP in 2019 to provide clients with a wider range of IP advisory, administration and technology-led services. The collaboration was sparked by recognition of the importance placed by IP owners and their advisers on having access to a single, go-to resource for all their IP needs, including both commercially-focused legal and consulting advice, and tech-enabled IP services.
This approach complements Questel's own vision for the IP sector. The global IP solutions provider offers an integrated platform of software and services addressing corporate and law firm needs across the complete IP lifecycle.
"We launched NovumIP with an ambitious plan to become one of the top three service providers worldwide and to offer a new global benchmark for end-to-end IP service delivery," said Chairman Reinhard Ottway. "By joining forces with Questel, we are able to achieve that goal, forming a global IP powerhouse and the second largest IP services provider in the world."
Moving forward, the companies' shared vision is to further integrate knowledge and technology in order to offer clients a new way of managing their IP through tech-enabled delivery of services. The combined group will be present in more than 30 locations around the world, with a team of more than 1,200 people.
"Through the acquisitions of Brandstock and RenewalsDesk, in 2019 and 2020 respectively, Questel successfully expanded its operations into the trademark management and patent annuity markets. These new acquisitions aim to accelerate this strategy by relying on Questel's IT DNA," said Charles Besson, CEO at Questel.
"More than 1,400 clients already enjoy and value our premium annuity service. With Questel's international footprint and client-base, we can now offer our services to the global IP community in one fell swoop. Especially those Questel clients which already use their Intellectual Asset Management platform will greatly benefit from the reliability and efficiency of an integrated annuity service," said Thomas Gruber, CEO at PAVIS.
"Questel has demonstrated its unique capabilities to integrate IP services via investment in software and data, making it the ideal partner with which to consolidate our IP management offerings," said Lutgarde Liezenberg, CEO at Novagraaf. "We're excited to be able to move forward together, and to build on our longstanding and unparalleled heritage in the fields of IP legal and consulting, and global administrative services for the benefit of all our clients."
Supported by the private equity funds, Eurazeo, IK Investment Partners and Raise, the acquisition marks another important step for Questel, which now serves more than 15,000 clients and has more than 1,200 employees around the world. During the past years, Questel has demonstrated a successful M&A integration track record, relying on its corporate culture, purpose-driven strategy, and a strong engagement on environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) issues.

There are beautiful moments in the world of aviation. Last weekend I had one. Standing in the semi-dark at Lanseria Airport, I was struck by the fact that a Boeing was in the circuit. It's always exciting watching or sharing airspace with a Boeing pilot undergoing circuit training. The pure power as the plane does a touch and go. The sound on the ground of a large jet circling the airfield.
On 21st May it was even more beautiful. While the Boeing pilot/s trained, a Blue Moon waxed overhead. Alongside the Moon, Mars glowered in an orange mistiness. It was partly cloudy so I wasn't sure that the astronomical event would feature during my flight.
A blue moon is when 4 full moons appear in a season instead of 3. Usually a blue moon means the Moon is actually the second full moon in a month. But in a strange twist, Blue moon of 21st May actually means its a full moon that's appeared for the fourth time in a season. Thus, its an unusual event. Like a Blue Moon. At least astronomers aren't confused.
Mars in opposition means the earth passes directly between Mars and the Sun and Mars then gleams so brightly in the night that it looks like a bursting star. Its way the brightest thing in the night sky so keep looking up folks, that's going to last for a few weeks yet.
But as luck would have it, the Moon and Mars sauntered into view as I took off. Later, turning in the general flying area – suddenly – I was alone in the great big sky of Johannesburg. It was like a switch had been flicked. Bright moonlight shone on the northern Magagliesberg Ridge which looms up to a high point of 6000 feet, ready to trip up an unsuspecting night pilot. A single plane was descending into Rand Airport 50km away. A chopper swirled around FNB towers near Soweto. In the north, around Rustenberg and Pilansberg, nothing moved.
It's hard to put into words the exact feeling as you fly in such clear skies on a windless night, with a Blue Moon and Mars in opposition for company. For a fleeting moment I felt a little like what space travellers may feel. Solitude, an alien loneliness, an ache to fly.

Q: Kubernetes certbot standalone not working I'm trying to generate an SSL certificate with certbot/certbot docker container in kubernetes. I am using Job controller for this purpose which looks as the most suitable option. When I run the standalone option, I get the following error:

Failed authorization procedure. staging.ishankhare.com (http-01):
  urn:ietf:params:acme:error:connection :: The server could not connect

IMPORTANT NOTES:
 - The following errors were reported by the server:

   Domain: staging.ishankhare.com
   Type:   connection

   Timeout during connect (likely firewall problem)

   To fix these errors, please make sure that your domain name was
   entered correctly and the DNS A/AAAA record(s) for that domain
   contain(s) the right IP address. Additionally, please check that
   your computer has a publicly routable IP address and that no
   firewalls are preventing the server from communicating with the
   client. If you're using the webroot plugin, you should also verify
   that you are serving files from the webroot path you provided.
 - Your account credentials have been saved in your Certbot
   configuration directory at /etc/letsencrypt. You should make a
   secure backup of this folder now. This configuration directory will
   also contain certificates and private keys obtained by Certbot so
   making regular backups of this folder is ideal.

I've also tried running this as a simple Pod but to no help. Although I still feel running it as a Job to completion is the way to go.

A: First, be aware your Job definition is valid, but the spec.template.metadata.labels.app: certbot-generate value does not match with your Service definition spec.selector.app: certbot-generator: one is certbot-generate, the second is certbot-generator. So the pod run by the job controller is never added as an endpoint to the service.
Adjust one or the other, but they have to match, and that might just work :)
Although, I'm not sure using a Service with a selector targeting short-lived pods from a Job controller would work, neither with a simple Pod as you tested. The certbot-randomId pod created by the job (or whatever simple pod you create) takes about 15 seconds total to run/fail, and the HTTP validation challenge is triggered after just a few seconds of the pod life: it's not clear to me that would be enough time for kubernetes proxying to be already working between the service and the pod.
We can safely assume that the Service is actually working because you mentioned that you tested DNS resolution, so you can easily ensure that's not a timing issue by adding a sleep 10 (or more!) to give more time for the pod to be added as an endpoint to the service and being proxied appropriately before the HTTP challenge is triggered by certbot. Just change your Job command and args for those:
command: ["/bin/sh"]

And here too, that might just work :)

That being said, I'd warmly recommend you to use cert-manager which you can install easily through its stable Helm chart: the Certificate custom resource that it introduces will store your certificate in a Secret which will make it straightforward to reuse from whatever K8s resource, and it takes care of renewal automatically so you can just forget about it all.

Your lawn is a living, breathing organism. It is a photosynthesizing, oxygen-producing, carbon-sequestering miracle, teeming with beneficial microbes and insects. Promoting its health is easier than you think!
The benefits of grasses are immeasurable. Lawns give off precious oxygen and trap and hold climate-warming carbon. The dense, fibrous root system helps filter and clean runoff water before it goes into our storm sewers. Your lawn also helps cool the atmosphere when it gives off water vapour through photosynthesis. Lawns prevent wind and water erosion.
Grass can be a valuable and worthy, yet low maintenance, groundcover — soft enough for babies to crawl on, yet tough enough to bounce back after a soccer game.
With just a little bit of care, your family and environment can benefit from a healthy lawn.
Most lawns need regular fertilizing to stay thick and healthy. The professional lawn care members of Landscape Ontario will know the best type of fertilizer and application frequency for your specific lawn. The Lawn Care Sector Group of Landscape Ontario recommends its members use a phosphorus-free fertilizer on established turf. If you are a do-it-yourselfer, your local independent garden centre will have a number of high quality options for slow release fertilizer. Do yourself a favour and measure the square footage of your lawn before shopping, so you know how much to buy.
The most effective way to combat weeds is to have a thick lawn. Applying quality seed, once in spring and again in early fall, will pay big dividends. Over the course of a season or two, you will see a marked difference in your lawn. Be sure to keep the seed out of your flower and shrub beds, and off patios or walkways. You can put the seed on with a spreader, or even by hand if you wish. Apply a light topdressing of good quality compost with the grass seed.
An essential part of keeping a lawn healthy is regular mowing. Generally speaking, mow your lawn every five to seven days, more frequently in spring and fall when grass is growing vigourously. Keep the mower blades sharp, and set your mower to cut at eight cm (three inches) high. Keep regular; infrequent mowing will cause your lawn to thin out — a lot! When it is extremely hot, do not mow during mid-day.
Lawns need an inch of water per week. Rainfall is always better than the tap, so if your lawn is hanging in there with Mother Nature's elixir, there is no need to pull out the sprinkler. It is ok to let your lawn go dormant in the summer — to a point! If your grass has gone three weeks or more without any appreciable moisture, it's time to give it a drink. You don't need to soak it, but leaving the sprinkler on for 15-20 minutes per spot will help it stay alive, and once cooler temperatures and fall rains return, it will bounce back.
If animals are digging up areas of your lawn this spring, chances are you have a grub problem. Nematodes are microscopic worm-like creatures, that will kill grubs when correctly applied. Research has shown us that the only time to apply nematodes to successfully control grubs is in the fall. A professional lawn care member of Landscape Ontario can apply these beneficial organisms to your lawn, or you can purchase them to do it yourself. If you buy from a garden centre, make sure the nematodes have been kept refrigerated.

Q: np.loadtxt ignores the header, how can I save the header data? I've saved an numpy array using savetxt and given the array a header. When I read the file using loadtxt, the header is ignored and only the data is saved in my new array.
How can I access the header as it has important information I want to save as a string.
Edit:
np.savetxt(file_name, array, delimiter=",", header='x,y,z, data from monte carlo simulation')
data = np.loadtxt('test', dtype=float, delimiter=',')

I want to get "data from monte carlo simulation" and save it as a string.

A: To get the header you can simply read the first line of the file using .readline() method on your file. In your case It would look something like this :
f = open(filename)
header = f.readline()
last_col_name = header.split(',')[-1] #returns 'data from monte carlo simulation'

Also if you want to look into a more versatile way storing data you can check out the pandas library.

Not long now – Tradfest 2015 runs from 28th January to 1st February in Temple Bar. Although most of the music is Trad, you don't have to be a Trad fan to enjoy this. The venues and atmosphere are a major plus, and this really is the right time of year for a Trad festival….


Believe it or not, work doesn't have to be miserable. If you're in the right profession, then going to work shouldn't be so dreadful every week. Are you wondering if it's time to start applying to jobs again?
1. You're lazy and unmotivated.
You've given up on doing your best. You have no desire to go above and beyond like you did when you first started your new job. You just don't feel motivated to do well anymore for whatever reason, and maybe your work lacks quality as a result.
2. You dread going to work every day.
3. The thought of working instantly brings you down.
Are you depressed when you think about your heavy workload? Or when the weekend is almost over? What about when you're even just sitting in the office? No matter where you are or when you think about it, the thought of work gets you down.
4. You don't get along with any of your co-workers.
So the responsibilities of your career are cool… but the people you work alongside are not. This can put a major strain on your perception of work and make you dislike it entirely.
5. You rarely receive appreciation or positive feedback from your boss(es).
Do you feel like your manager doesn't acknowledge your hard work and effort? Feeling unappreciated or overlooked can result in a loss of interest. Find a new job with an employer who will recognize and reward you for your skills and productivity!
6. There is no room for growth.
Maybe you enjoy your work, but there is no opportunity to grow beyond your current position. Dead end jobs are a huge reason to leave and start looking somewhere else.
7. Work doesn't give you a sense of purpose or fulfillment.
Walking out the door at 5PM shouldn't be the only time you feel good about the work day. If your job doesn't bring a smile to your face (more often than not), then it's time to reflect on what you really want to do in life and consider going elsewhere.
Do you agree with most or all of these 7 signs? If so, then it's probably time for you to switch career paths!
If you do accept an interview invitation, remember to run the employer through a people search like Kiwi Searches before you go! You'll save both yourself, and the company, some time.


Ford Motor Co. is hosting a ten day party in Michigan Central Station. Which is still hard for us to wrap our minds around because we, like most people who've been in Detroit long enough, remember the train station most vividly through images of illicit adventuring.
Despite the fact that the party's hosts are advertising "live graffiti painting" alongside "face painting" — which is the MOST absurd and the squarest move EVER, we're still in because anyone who has ever stepped inside Michigan Central Station will tell you it's GLORIOUS.
Plus night markets are rad and our old friend Daniel Land did some 3-D mapping magic and we heard rumors of visions of Diego and Frida inside.
Oh and the Detroit Historical Society is pulling out some artifacts, and who doesn't love an ice sculpture?!
Pray for reasonable weather and THANK NAIAS!
The event runs until 10 p.m. THIS Sunday.
"The 10-day festival is an extension of Ford's North American International Auto Show presence. Tapping into advanced 3D projection-mapping technology and old-fashioned storytelling, Ford is using the 18-story train station as a canvas to re-create its glory days, its revitalization, and its future as the centerpiece of a new 1.2-million-square-foot Corktown campus, where along with its partners, the company seeks to shape the future of mobility and transportation.
The festival runs through Jan. 27. Open 5:30-10 p.m. on Friday and Saturday and from 5:30-9 p.m. Sunday.

}}Round Midnight (en España, Alrededor de la media noche; en Argentina, Cerca de la media noche''') es una película francoestadounidense musical y dramática de 1986 dirigida por Bertrand Tavernier y con actuación de Dexter Gordon, François Cluzet y Herbie Hancock.

La historia, que narra la vida de un músico de jazz ficticio inspirado en las figuras del saxofonista Lester Young y el pianista Bud Powell, está basada en la biografía sobre ambos llamada La Danza de los infieles, escrita por Francis Paudras y publicada en 1986. El filme fue galardonado con el César a Mejor Sonido y el Oscar a Mejor Música en 1987.

 Sinopsis
Dale Turner es un saxofonista negro estadounidense y pionero del jazz bebop. Turner está tratando de salir de sus largos años de alcoholismo mientras vive y trabaja en París durante la década de 1950. Turner traba amistad con un dibujante y diseñador gráfico francés incomprendido llamado Francis Borler, que se especializa en realizar pósteres de películas.

Francis es desde joven un admirador de Dale, y para rescatar al primero de sus recaídas en la adicción lo lleva a vivir a su hogar, donde lo cuida junto con su pequeña hija. De a poco, Dale regresa a su estado óptimo y da lo mejor de sí tocando en vivo, además de volver a grabar un disco de estudio con material nuevo. La amistad de los dos hombres se hace cada vez más intensa y gratificante para ambos, hasta que un día Dale decide volver a la Ciudad de Nueva York, cambiando para siempre el curso de su vida y la de Francis.

When you are a new Mom and your baby is in pain or suffering from colic, you can feel helpless and want nothing more than to make the pain go away. Read on to learn the things that helped my baby the most with his tummy pains.
During the first three months after my baby was born, it seemed like he constantly had a tummy ache and there was not much I could do to relieve his discomfort. I researched everything I could find and tried many different techniques to help him. I compiled the techniques and products that I found helped the most.
Disclaimer: I am not a medical professional. These techniques helped in my situation with a baby with tummy problems but may not work for everyone. Talk to your baby's doctor if you are concerned with your baby's crying to rule out more serious issues. This post contains affiliate links. If you purchase an item through my link, I receive a small commission at no extra cost to you- thank you!
Listening to your baby cry, you can feel so helpless. It can make you feel like a bad mother and can make the transition to motherhood even harder. If your baby suffers from colic or tummy problems, I hope some of these tips can help to bring a little bit of relief to you and your baby.
Again, I am not a doctor. If you are concerned about your baby's health, reach out to your pediatrician right away to rule out any serious conditions.
1.) Bounce on the edge of a bed with your baby in your arms upright, while patting his back- this can greatly help to get the baby to burp.
Warning- Once I started bouncing my baby on the edge of the bed, he no longer wanted to be put to sleep any other way. Now, even when I am not trying to get him to burp, he falls asleep very quickly if I hold him sideways with a pacifier in his mouth and bounce him.
Sitting on the edge of a bed like that for extended periods of time is definitely hard on your back. Try to pay attention to your posture when doing this to avoid lower back pain.
2.) Lay your baby on your legs, with his tummy over your right leg. Support his head on your left leg and with your left hand. Gently jiggle your right leg and pat his back with your right hand to help relieve gas.
My Dad originally showed me this technique and it really helped my little guy when his tummy was hurting him. It was amazing, as soon as he got in that position, he stopped crying.
This was a tad difficult for me to do on my own the first time. Have your partner or someone else help you for the first time to get the baby in position safely.
3.) Mommy's Bliss Gripe Water Night Time – Like many moms, I swore by this gripe water. It is amazing for an upset tummy. I especially like the night-time gripe water to help in getting my tough sleeper ready for bed. You just put the recommended dose at bedtime in a bottle or directly in the mouth if breastfeeding. I also used Mommy's Bliss Gripe Water during the day.
4.) Little Remedies Gas Relief Drops – This can be taken up to 12 times a day, just make sure to measure the recommended dose with the enclosed syringe. I put several drops in each of my son's bottles to help with his gas. He has always been a very gassy baby and this definitely helped to lessen the discomfort.
5.) Babies' Magic Tea – This tea really is magic. It can help relieve gas, colic, and upset stomach. I made this in the morning and added some to his bottles throughout the day.
6.) Happi Tummi Colic and Gas Relief Waistband – this is great to help ease discomfort from tummy aches. You heat the bag in the microwave and place in the pouch. You then put the pouch over the baby's belly. ALWAYS follow all directions on product, never overheat, and test on your wrist before placing on baby, over clothing.
7.) Add a probiotic such as Gerber Soothe Colic Drops – My baby's doctor gave me the green light to introduce a probiotic at 8 weeks. Check with your doctor to see if this may be a good option for your baby.
8.) Hold baby in a "football" hold with his belly against your arm and his head resting in your hand. Your arm should be between his legs. Having the baby on his tummy can help to ease some of his discomfort.
I was not able to hold my baby in this position for very long, especially as he got bigger. If you are having trouble with this or are afraid you do not have a good hold on baby, get your spouse or a partner to help you.
9.) Do "bicycle kicks" with your baby's legs, straighten the legs and then gently push upward towards the belly, bending the knees to help expel gas, one leg at a time. I also bend the knees, bring up to baby's belly, and gently rock the knees side to side lightly against the belly.
This will help to ease discomfort and expel gas, bringing instant relief to baby.
10.) Give baby a warm bath. If the baby's tummy is not fully submerged in the warm water, place a warm washcloth over the tummy. When nothing I did helped my baby's tummy ache, a warm bath would always help to calm him if only temporarily.
I love this baby bathtub because it allows baby to be kept at an incline without the hassle of a mesh sling. This allows the baby to be safely submerged in warm water. NEVER leave your baby alone while in the tub, even for a second. Pre-position everything you will need before the bath: towel, washcloth, onsie, diaper, swaddle, baby lotion, etc.
I hope these tips help to ease some of your baby's discomfort. Have any tips to add that helped with your baby's gas or colic? Let me know in the comments, I would love to hear about it!
If you found value in this post, please like and share!
Babies magic tea is pretty amazing. My six week old son seemed to have tummy troubles, gas and colic starting in the late afternoon and would be up for hours, screaming, at night. After drinking this for a couple of days (since I'm breastfeeding), he wakes up happy and smiles and coos a whole lot more.
Hi Bethel, I loved the tea! I wish I had known about it in the beginning. My son had tummy problems until he was four months old and just seemed to be fussy all the time. I did not find out about the tea until almost 2 and a half months! It was amazing though and I will definitely be using it for baby #2. Thank you for sharing, I am so glad it helped!


At the beginning of any learning process, a client often comes with the question, "How can I achieve my goal?" As practitioners we then go on a discovery tour with them to find out. We work together with the client to learn which patterns are still limiting their freedom today, and then we experiment with how to stop those patterns in order to grow stronger and access more of their individual potential for better health and wellness.
We want to do the same with the IAGMP. Our goal is to be a strong and healthy group of professionals recognized by the public, sharing a common vision of ethics, professionalism and a high standard of bodywork training. This past year has already been the beginning of our own discovery tour. We have started to change some of the old structures still limiting our organization today. There's still work to be done, and we're happy to continue this process together with our members to combine forces in reaching this shared aim.
After months of intense work and collaboration with designers, consultants, practitioners, board members and other friends, we're so happy today to have achieved our goal of launching our new website and being able to present this fresh face of our organization to the world. We're excited to have a new platform to communicate and share our thoughts and experiences with the public about our work as practitioners of the Grinberg Method.
It has been an amazing experience over the past months to realize that we could make many decisions together– not only within the board but with a lot of input from our members as well. Our process has been focused on creating more transparency and open and direct communication both inside and outside of the organization.
As a board we received a lot of feedback and ideas of our members, who are constantly striving for more freedom and excellence in their work as practitioners. There have been many suggestions throughout the year and we're looking forward to continuing the discussion at our General Meeting in November, where our very international group gets to meet each other in person and further discuss how to continue on this path of becoming an even stronger as an organization.
Our aim is to continue defining and forming a structure to uphold the high quality of work and professional development that we all would like to have, and to do so in a way that each one of us can also work as freely as he or she would like. At the end of the day, we want to know that each of our members, like our clients, are satisfied and confident in their own work, in that of their colleagues and in the support of our professional organization, the IAGMP, in bringing our profession and better health and wellness out into the world.
We are filled with curious anticipation about what the future will bring and excited to share it with you!

Inmate Coronavirus Infections Skyrocket in California
By Scott Shackford - June 30, 2020 at 01:10PM
Nearly a third of the 3,500 inmates incarcerated in San Quentin State Prison in California have tested positive for the coronavirus as of Monday.
California is one of the states seeing new spikes in COVID-19 infections, with nearly 225,000 infections across the state and 6,000 deaths as of Monday. Total deaths in the state still rank well below New York, which has had more than 31,000 deaths, but California is seeing new highs in the daily number of new infections as well as number of new deaths.
Nowhere is the spike more obvious than at San Quentin State Prison, north of San Francisco in Marin County. The prison accounts for half of all new COVID-19 infections among the state's inmates. Up until May, San Quentin had managed to go without any reported infections at all. Now they have more than 1,000. A representative for the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation told USA Today that the prison is setting up tents within the prison to serve as triage space for handling new infections.
In a press conference on Monday, Gov. Gavin Newsom said it's possible that the infections came to San Quentin via the transfer of prisoners from Chino, formally known as the California Institution for Men, located in San Bernardino County. According to NPR, the 122 prisoners who were transferred from Chino to San Quentin in late May were not tested before being moved. This is particularly foolish since prisoners were moved to San Quentin due to Chino's own coronavirus outbreak and related overcrowding. (Currently, Chino has more than 500 active COVID-19 infections and has had 16 deaths.)
Newsom says California has released 3,500 inmates and has identified another 3,500 who could potentially be let out in order to reduce the level of crowding and thus the chances of the coronavirus spreading. The state has identified 110 inmates at San Quentin that could potentially be released soon. According to daily population data from California's prison system, the state prison population is down more than 11,000 inmates from this same time last year.
Despite the new spike and California's high prison population, the state's prison system is still seeing fewer infections than in states like Texas and Ohio. Though The Marshall Project notes that 585 inmates in state and federal prisons have died of COVID-19 as of June 25, California has seen comparatively fewer prisoner deaths so far. Hopefully the prison system will learn from this disaster caused by poor planning in its prison transfers and will avoid creating new infection outbreaks. You can't blame this one on bars and beachgoers.

NPR Report Further Confirms Role Of Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood In Egyptian Protests
By gmbwatch on	 February 17, 2011 Daily
National Public Radio (NPR) in the US is reporting comments by journalist Charles Sennott on the role of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood in the recent Egyptian protests. According to the NPR report:
Though the group was absent during initial Egyptian protests in Tahrir Square, it took on a larger role as the uprising continued — helping to organize emergency medical clinics, setting up checkpoints to prevent supporters of former President Hosni Mubarak from instigating problems, and participating on the front lines of the revolt. And much of their participation, Sennott says, was due to the interest of young members of the organization"They brought a lot of organizational skill," he says. "If you looked carefully, you could see that the Muslim Brotherhood was playing an important role, but you would miss the meaning of the revolution if you thought it was theirs. It really wasn't. It really was pushed on by all of these aspects of society. But going forward now, [when we ask]what does this revolution mean, the Muslim Brotherhood and all of that organizational structure they revealed in the demonstrations will come into play and raises the question: 'What role will they play in the new Egypt?' " The Brotherhood, which claims to have 600,000 members, has been officially banned in the country since 1954. Earlier this week, the Brotherhood said it intends to form a political party once democracy has been established in Egypt. But, Sennott says, it is less of a political movement than a social movement in the country. "Their intention is to change Egyptian society to become more Islamic — to accept Sharia law and to live as good Muslims," he says. "And there is a kind of cult of patience of taking things slow — of making sure no one pushes too hard, of understanding that this will take a long time." That patience, he says, was part of the Muslim Brotherhood's strategy during the revolution — when it took a step back and tried to position itself as a centrist force in the country instead of a leading player in the uprising. Sennott says that was no accident. "I think it was very well-rehearsed [and]very disciplined certainly in [their]approach toward this revolution because they did not want to allow the Mubarak regime to paint this as a Muslim Brotherhood revolution," he says. "And it wasn't." "This is the most exciting story I've ever covered in my life," Sennott says. "I've been a reporter for 25 years. I've covered the Middle East for more than 15 of those years. It was just so thrilling, so breathtaking, so unpredictable, and really a journey for the whole country of Egypt but also for those correspondents who've covered the Middle East for a long time." Sennott describes an event he saw hours after President Mubarak stepped down, when he witnessed members of the revolutionary youth council — including members of the Muslim Brotherhood — creating what he calls "a birth certificate of a free Egypt." "There were people there from the April 6 youth movement, from the secular opposition parties, Muslim Brotherhood was in the tent, a Coptic Christian woman with a secular party was there," he says. "And it was really quite a moment. They were there with flashlights beaming down on a ripped-off piece of cardboard from a water box. … It was the Muslim Brotherhood representative who became the scribe and just began drafting sentences [which laid out several goals for the new government of Egypt]. And all of them were working together to come up with these sentences and it really was quite a moment to see these young people giving voice to what it meant. … You really felt like you were inside a revolution." Despite their religious differences, there were no tensions between members of the council inside the tent, Sennott says. "This was one of the really exciting and beautiful aspects of this revolution, to see young people within Egyptian society coming together from a lot of different walks of life," he says. "The 30-year truth of the regime of Mubarak was that he made sure that never happened. He kept people divided. There was a concerted attempt not to allow people to pull together like that. And I think [those in Tahrir Square]were thrilled and energized by that, and you could feel it."
Sennot's somewhat breathless and uncritical appraisal about the role of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood in the protests confirms earlier posts which discussed the generally unreported importance of the Brotherhood.
It should be noted that the Muslim Brotherhood today has become a global network and that the Egyptian mother branch is not necessarily the most important part of the movement. Sheikh Youssef Qaradawi, close to Saudi Arabia and the Gulf states, is often referred to by the GMBDW as the most important leader of the global Muslim Brotherhood, an acknowledgement of his role as the de facto spiritual leader of the movement. In 2004, Qaradawi turned down the offer to lead the Egyptian Brotherhood after the death of the Supreme Guide.
Readers should keep in mind the fundamentalism, religious intolerance, and support for Palestinian terrorism which generally characterizes the Global Muslim Brotherhood and which is documented throughout the thousands of posts on the GMBDW.

Each week brings documents, emails, new jobs, and job lists. Just how much of this is different from the work you've done before? Odds are, not much. Many of our daily tasks are variants on something.
Don't reinvent the wheel every single time you start something fresh. Use templates–as starting point standardized files with formatting and text. As soon as you save a version of the template add, eliminate, or alter any info for that document, and you'll have the new job done in a fraction of this time.
Templates work anywhere: in word processors, spreadsheets, project management programs, survey platforms, and email. Here's how to use templates and to automatically create documents from a template–so it's possible to get your tasks quicker.
Programs take the time to build, and it's easy to wonder whether they're worth the investment. The short answer: absolutely. Editing a template takes much less time than formatting something. It is the difference between retyping it, or copying and pasting some text.
That is only one benefit: Using a template means you're less inclined to leave out key info, also. For instance, if you need to send freelance authors a contributor arrangement, modifying a standard contract template (rather than composing a new contract every time) guarantees you won't leave out that crucial clause regarding owning the content once you've paid for it.
Templates also guarantee consistency. You send regular job updates to investors or customers. Using a template, you know the upgrade will always have the same formatting, design, and standard structure.
First, templates should be comprehensive. It is easier to delete information than add it , so err on the side of including instead of too small.
Imagine you are creating a template of your own resume. You'd want to list in-depth facts so you are going to have all the information you want to submit an application for almost any job.
You always have the option to delete less-important notes later on, but you might forget it at the last 25, if it is not in the template.
Some tools will automatically fill in these variables for you (more on this in a bit). But should you need to fill in the information on your own, add some text that is simple and obvious to look for so you can find.

An Interview with Ken Rosenthal
A Dream Half Remembered #ZD-54-12, 2004 -- Ken Rosenthal
This year marked the first retrospective exhibition for Ken Rosenthal, and with it, his first book, an archive of ten years of photographic projects — Seen and Not Seen, Not Dark Yet, Ghosts, A Dream Half Remembered, Missing and Days Between. Ken Rosenthal: Photographs 2001-2009 contains 14 of his most iconic images from these projects, several of which photo-eye has been proud to represent on the Photographer's Showcase for many years. Rosenthal's much anticipated publication was selected as one of photo-eye's Best Books of 2011 by Susan Burnstine and Gordon Stettinius.
The images from this series established Rosenthal as an accomplished photographer making thoughtful and memorable images in a distinctive style. Deliberately out of focus, they are glimpses from a hazy black & white world of a distant memory — or perhaps a dream. The basic imagery is always simple, making them more familiar — at times eerily so — but belie an emotional complexity. Rosenthal's images feel at once personal and universal, as if tapping into our collective memories of childhood, our family photo albums, our visual cinematic archive.
On this occasion, we've asked Rosenthal to tell us a bit more about this series and how he went about making it, putting together his exhibition catalogue, and the process of moving away from the signature style that previously characterized his work.
Your work featured on the Photographer's Showcase has a distinctive style and uses an unusual process that you worked in for 10 years. How did you stumble upon making images like this? What about this technique spoke to you?
I was trying to make sense of some prints I was working on using family negatives. These images eventually formed the foundation of my series Seen and Not Seen. I had been printing the images completely straightforward, but the prints weren't at all successful. To me they were too recognizable as my own family, and referred too directly to a specific period of time. I did have a base idea of what I wanted the prints to look like, and a pretty solid idea of how I wanted them to function. I actually stumbled upon my printing technique quite by accident. It was probably the one time that carelessness due to distraction paid off. I was on the phone while printing, which I never do, and was clearly not paying attention fully to the task at hand. As a result of this happy accident, I came upon the style of printing for which my work is known. It did take awhile to figure out exactly what I'd done, and longer still to refine it. But the origin of the technique was really a byproduct of chance.
A Dream Half Remembered #JLB-49-7 and From the series Seen and Not Seen #788-3 -- Ken Rosenthal
When working in this method, there's a difference between what you capture with your camera and what ends up the final product in the darkroom. How do you conceive your images? Are you visualizing the final outcome when shooting, or does the image come to its own spontaneously in the darkroom?
There is indeed a huge difference! I'm often asked if I shoot my images out of focus, which I do not. I always shoot my film in focus, enabling me to have complete control over how much detail I allow each image to have. All of the image manipulation is done in the darkroom. Due to the nature of my process, I do have to visualize how I want the image to look in the print before I take the shot. Without wanting to give too much away about my printing technique, the way I expose and light a shot is determined by how I envision the print will look.
My images are often conceived with a series in mind. My series usually start off with several images that have been shot some time ago. I'll periodically go through older contact sheets, looking for images that I'm interested in but have not printed before. It's fascinating to me how differently an image reads several years after I've shot it from how it did at the time I took it. They are constantly changing, I suppose, because we are constantly evolving. Anyways, I like to make work prints of these images and lay them out together. Eventually several images will begin a dialogue with each other, and spark some ideas that shape the direction of the series.
Ken Rosenthal: Photographs 2001-2009, your first book, is a wonderful retrospective catalogue of your work. Can you tell us a little bit about putting this project together, your decision to feature the tight selection of 14 images, and using the online fundraising site Kickstarter?
Cover of Ken Rosenthal: Photographs 2001-2009
I embarked on this project last year after a chat with my friend Mary Virginia Swanson (aka Swanee). We talked about a show that I had upcoming, and Swanee thought the time was ripe to produce a catalogue of my work. I had been showing for a fair number of years at that point, and it made sense to bring out a publication, even a modestly sized one. The only real obstacle was I did not have the funds to produce a catalogue, especially one with print quality high enough to do justice to my prints (which are not easy to reproduce well.) We set up meetings with a fantastic design firm owned by a friend of mine, as well as with a local press, and began moving forward (despite the lack of funding.) Late one night I recalled a website for crowdsourced funding of creative projects, Kickstarter. There were a few photography projects on the site, including one by a friend, and it seemed like as feasible way as any I could think of to come up with the finances. Swanee was skeptical at first, but the more in depth we researched past and active Kickstarter campaigns, the more we believed it might work. I spent a great deal of time on the site, and did extensive research before concluding that it was feasible to raise the needed funding through the launch of a Kickstarter campaign. My thinking was that this was a good way to, in essence, pre-sell the catalogue, as well as a limited edition of the catalogue with a choice of silver-prints. Additionally, it enabled me to offer prints at a smaller size, and at a less expensive price than my regular editioned prints sell for. I have for some time wanted to be able to make some work that was at once accessible to more people without competing with the works that my galleries handle.
The scope of the project, 14 images, was two-fold. For one thing, I needed to scale the project to fit the budget I had to work with. But more than anything, my goal is to find a publisher interested in publishing a larger collection of this work. I have a very tight edit of approximately 60 images that I feel would make for a very strong debut monograph.
From the series Seen and Not Seen #94-3 -- Ken Rosenthal
You recently moved on from the formal process that characterized your pervious work. What were your reasons for leaving this technique behind and how has this changed the way you make images? Has this altered conceptual elements behind your work?
Yes, for several years now I have very gradually been inching away from the formal qualities that people associate my work with. When one works in a highly stylized manner for a long time, it can be hard to break away from that for any number of reasons, not the least of which is the expectations of one's audience. And there's also the comfort factor. It took me a while to realize that some of the things that made me reluctant to change were, in and of themselves, reason enough to change. As an artist, it is not to your benefit to play it safe, to remain stationary. You have to keep moving forward and taking chances.
In 2010 I began working on a series (now nearly completed) titled That Was The River, This Is The Sea. It is the first series where I backed off of the blur I had employed for years. In this body of work there is still a very recognizable connection to my earlier work, both in terms of subject matter and conceptual concerns. The main departure I made was formally, in my style of printing. The series is still highly autobiographical in nature, as is the latest series I've begun working on. Some of the negatives I began working with were of images that I tried to include in earlier series but that didn't translate well to the way I was printing.
I'm currently working on a very dark series of landscapes, titled The Forest. It's probably the most complicated and personal work I've done. All of the images have been made in the Selkirk Mountains, in NE Washington State. My family has a cabin in the Colville National Forest, and I have spent nearly every summer of my life there. There is no place on earth that I have greater affection for.
The Forest #4987 -- Ken Rosenthal
But as beautiful a place as it is, there is a very palpable sense of mystery and darkness. I believe that there is a very strong presence in this forest, a presence that is hard to define but is experienced viscerally. On the periphery, the forest appears pristine: very neat, and seemingly ordered. But upon hiking further in you realize that there is more of a state of disorder. Fallen trees and jagged branches litter the forest floor. Majestic pines give way to a more gnarled mass of decayed and fallen trees, clusters of anthropomorphic trees akin to those in a fantastical film.
This body of work in part relates to a specific place, but is in essence an exploration of self. While The Forest is a series of landscapes, the work is really not about landscape or the region depicted in the photographs. The landscapes function as metaphor for an internal state. The work is very dark and densely layered, visually as well as in content. To me, the photographs are more closely aligned with fairy-tales, story telling and portraiture/self-portraiture than with landscape. The images are interwoven with thoughts on magic, loss, spirits, discovery and renewal. I'll be returning this summer to continue working on the series.

The ship, filled with five hundred refugees, police, women and two hundred children, reached the harbor port of Iran, there was no permission to shelter anyone not even allowed to land , then they could not get help even in Seychelles, there was no permission even in Aden. Finally, the ship wandering in the sea came to the coast of Jamnagar in Gujarat, where Maharaja of Jamnagar, "Jham Sahab Digvijay Singh", not only gave shelter to five hundred women but also gave their children free education in Balachiri an Army School.
These refugees stayed in Jamnagar for nine years … one of the children of those refugee children later became the Prime Minister of Poland, even today, the descendants of those refugees come to Jamnagar every year and remember their ancestors … In Poland, the name of many roads in the capital of Warsaw are named after Maharaja Jam Sahib; in his name there are many schemes in Poland. Every year Poland newspapers print articles about Maharaja Jam Saheb Digvijay Singh.
From the ancient times, the text of the Indian ( Vasudhaiva kutubhkam ) whole world is a family and the tolerance have come to teach the world, on the other hand people of today's novice leaders, etc., are going to put question marks on India's tolerance … "India, etc., was till the end, and will remain … This is Hindu Indian Culture – Rich ,brave, tolerant, compassionate and genuine humanitarian – plus pro life, pro good values and great respect.
Indology: There is a strong tradition of Indology studies in Poland, with Polish scholars having translated Sanskrit into Polish as early as in the 19th Century. Sanskrit was being studied at the 600 year old Jagiellonian University in Krakow (the oldest in Poland) in 1860-61 with a Chair of Sanskrit being established in 1893. The Indology Department of the Oriental Institute at the University of Warsaw (established in 1932) is the biggest centre for Indian studies in Central Europe. ICCR sponsored the first Central & Eastern European regional conference of Indology in Warsaw University in September 2005 in which 19 scholars from 11 countries participated. A Hindi Chair is in place at the University of Warsaw. A Tamil chair is being re-established at the University of Warsaw, which will be shared with the Jagiellonian University. Hindi Teachers have also been deployed, with ICCR support, at the Institute of Oriental Studies of the Jagiellonian University in Krakow and Technical University of Gdansk. A chair of Modern Studies is sought to be established at the Jagiellonian University.
Students exchange: Students from Poland are given scholarships under ICCR schemes to study in India every year. Kendriya Hindi Sansthan, Agra provides four scholarships to Polish students to study Hindi. Nearly 100 Polish officials have availed of the ITEC capacity building training since 2007. Indian students have been studying in Poland on private basis in areas such as medicine, engineering, town planning, ship-building, and coal-mining. The number of such students has climbed to over 1300.
Academic Faculty Exchange: University of Warsaw has institutional arrangements with several Indian universities, including JNU, University of Calcutta, Manipal University, Mangalore University, under which Indian professors visit the university and conduct classes. They also participate in seminars/conferences and share their perspectives at public lectures focused on India's development priorities/agenda among others.
Cultural exchanges: Polish journalists, academics and other opinion-makers have visited India under ICCR's 'Distinguished Visitors Programme'. Over the years, several cultural troupes have visited Poland and staged performances in many Polish cities. From the Polish side, several musical, art and film shows have been organized in India. An active Polish Cultural Institute functions within the Polish Mission in New Delhi, with its premises in Jor Bagh.
Incredible India Road Shows in Poland (July 2015): Ministry of Tourism with support of the Embassy organized Road shows in Krakow and Warsaw in July 2015 with participation of around 18 tour and travel operators from India and several local tour operators.
Yoga: The International Day of Yoga was organized in 21 cities in Poland on June 21, 2015. An estimated 11000 people participated in public events. The flagship event was held in the capital city Warsaw. Three Polish celebrities, 'yoga ambassadors', attended the event in Warsaw. Their involvement generated a tremendous buzz in the local media in the run-up to the event. PIOs showed enthusiastic support for the event. After the event, dozens of TV and print stories appeared on IDY, apart from a great deal of coverage in social media. Newsweek in Poland put up a popular 3 minute video report on its website. Currently around 1000 teachers are propagating yoga in Poland. There are over 200 yoga centre and over 4000 yoga practioners in Poland. The 2nd IDY Festival would be held on 19 June.
Ayurveda: The Opole University, in collaboration with Ayurveda and Yoga Centre of Sulislaw, offers a degree course in Ayurveda & Yoga. Ayush scholarships are offered annually to the Polish students to study Ayurveda & Yoga in India.
Films: Poland is becoming a major destination for shooting of Indian films. We expect this will boost tourism and cultural interaction between the two countries. Bangistan, Aazaan, Fanaa, Yah Jo Hai Mohabbat, Kick, Shaandaar, 24 are some of the Indian films shot in Poland. Bollywood Film 'Fan' was simultaneously released in Poland.
Gandhiji's bust: A bust of Mahatma Gandhi has been placed in the library of University of Warsaw. It was unveiled on May 23, 2002 by the Lok Sabha Speaker, Shri Manohar Joshi.
Good Maharaja Connection: A monument commemorating Jam Saheb Digvijaysinhji Ranjitsinhji Jadeja of Nawanagar, was unveiled on 31 October, 2014 at the Square of the Good Maharaja, Ochota District, Warsaw, Poland. A Polish school is also named after the Maharaja. On 11 March, 2016, the Polish Parliament unanimously passed a resolution honouring the kindness and generosity of the Maharaja on his 50th death anniversary. The Maharaja had accepted more than 1000 Polish refugees, mainly children in the 1940s, who were escaping the depredations of the Second World War.
Streets commemorating Indian leaders: Three streets in Warsaw are named after Indian leaders – Mahatma Gandhi, Indira Gandhi and Rabindranath Tagore. Krakow and Lodz also have streets named after Mahatma Gandhi. Several bus stations are also named after these leaders.
60 years of diplomatic contact: 2014 assumed special significance in our bilateral relationship as its being the 60th year of establishment of diplomatic relations between India and Poland. To commemorate this historic event, a series of outreach activities including seminars, film weeks, performing arts, business forums, cuisine festivals, exhibitions, etc were held in both the countries.
New Embassy premises: The Embassy has shifted to its new Chancery complex, measuring 9,657 square meters, in August 2015. The Chancery is located at the heart of Warsaw. It faces the world famous Lazienki Park on two sides.
Visas: The Embassy of India in Warsaw issues around 20,000 visas annually, for Poland and Lithuania. Poland has been included in e-TV scheme of Government of India with effect from August 15, 2015. Under the scheme, over 6500 Polish nationals have visited India till the end of April 2016, indicating rising number of Poles availing of e-TV visa facility.
Indian Community: Estimated at approximately 3000, the Indian community in Poland consists of traders (textiles), garments, electronics) who came after the collapse of communism and professionals with multinational or Indian companies and software/IT experts.
