Normaal Amsterdams Peil
NAP is a photo- and cartographic investigation into the norm of Amsterdam's housing stock. Our fascination was propelled by the apparent reluctance of our generation to deal with a notion that is both statistically inescapable and urgent with respect to the challenge of affordable middle class housing. Ultimately, raising the qualitative norm of housing provides better for housing for most people.
Why has the norm become such a difficult topic? Why is it implicitly relegated to unnamed 2nd-tier colleagues, or to other professions entirely? Why do we glorify the collaborative approach of the Amsterdamse Stijl but remain incapable, or reluctant, to work together with such deliberation?
This project investigates the norm through mapping parts of the city that were entirely built in one decade and consist of repetitive housing units built in close proximity. Through site visits and photography we sought to capture the guiding principles, aspirations and ideologies of that period. The series clearly reveals certain continuities and ruptures during the last century and seeks to establish a more self-conscious and reflective discourse about the implicit contemporary norms that we apparently find so difficult to acknowledge.

Three men in a sinking boat, having traveled far and wide, even to the 'Orient', provide a triptych of the 'recline' of the American empire. A combination of a call to arms coupled with a nostalgic farewell to arms where the trusted and true signifiers 'culture', 'work' and 'competition' stage a last fading appearance against the red shift of the technoscape. It is a little like Hopper's main street America after the throughway has by passed the town leaving the old men on the porch wistfully discussing the glories of last season. Virtual nostalgia for the virtuous.
In each writer the recuperative moment varies according to the remnants of the modern tradition that are used as the saving grace. With Thurow it is the exhortation to become Nietzsche's 'Good Europeans', or Americans or Japanese if you prefer, with Reich it is the fear of abandonment by the Kantian 'Cosmopolitan Universal Symbolic Analyst', or with Galbraith it is the sated 'Hobbesian man' who has found 'commodious living' and has no desire to go forward to the glorious revolution.
All this played out against a screen that each writer agrees to: first that, in Galbraith's words, the vast majority of America is constituted by a 'Functional Underclass' that is becoming less functional; second that American dominance is only assured in the military; and third that the dynamo of all relations is that of the technological operator that successfully challenges the existing social and economic order of worker, corporation and nation. Hence the threat of disappearance of America and the recuperative strategies to sustain an American world order which is fast following its alter image, Reagan's 'evil empire', into a virtual fantasy land.
Thurow comes right out of the pages of Nietzsche's On The Genealogy Of Morals as the vivisectionist whose (pre)description for the future concerns the creation of the 'beast' (perhaps no longer blond) of the 'Good European'. As if to underscore the necessity of this sociobiology engineering, Thurow begins the reprint of the paper edition with the following written in 1993.
Naturally this genetic engineering will, in Thurow's opinion, require a concomitant reengineering of values in line with the technological requirements of the creation of the competitive block. For the middle and eastern Europeans "Basic attitudes about fairness will have to change" (p. 97) acknowledging the projected growth in inequalities and the unstated creation of an underclass governed by technological demands. Thurow also signals the demise of the will in the willing not to will of the technological spectral 'competition'; a competition that is itself more virtual (technological) than real.
Hence, the Japanese, as befitting Thurow's revitalized social Darwinism, have gone beyond good and evil, in that their "secret is to be found in the fact that they have tapped a universal human desire to build, to belong to an empire, to conquer neighboring empires, and to become the world's leading economic power." (p.118) Thurow then goes on providing his list of 'world historical figures', not the consumers but the "the conquerors, the builders, the producers — Caesar, Genghis Khan, Rockefeller, Ford." (p.119) It is on this basis that Thurow's argument carries him naturally from the underclass to the necessity of the ruling class drawn on Nietzsche's 'overmen': "What America lacks is genuine, old-style capitalists — those big investors of yesteryear who often invented the technologies they were managing and whose personal wealth was inextricably linked to the destiny of their giant companies. It misses them. Men like Henry Ford; Thomas J. Watson, of IBM; and J.P. Morgan were at the heart of the system that produced the greatest economic power and the highest standard of living in history." Thus following Thurow where is Genghis Khan when you need him, or for that matter Clinton?
Of course, Thurow's Nietzschean turn is more reflective of the ressentiment that accompanies the realization that the American individual and the American economy are "floating" in a world economy where the appropriation of process technologies, notably by the Japanese, has replaced the romantic, world historical inventor of new products at the core of economic change. The processed world floats in the technological space that creates the screen for the virtual space of 'competition' Thurow circulates in his call for recombinant new beasts — new beasts which will have high technology body parts at a minimum.
Robert Reich's recoding of Smith's Wealth Of Nations has at least the virtue to follow through more consistently on the logic of the technological class that is at the core of transforming each of the institutional structures of the postcapitalist economic state. Here one enters most explicitly into the inner logic of extermination of the local bounded space by the hyperspace of technique. This gives rise to the technological universal citizen that Reich approaches as the schizoid embodiment of alterity; a disappearing corporeal existence (work or labour) set into circulation in the 'floating world' of symbolic manipulators. Thus Reich's America and America's 'work' force, whether explicitly recognized or not, are disappearing and he is out to save it.
Hence the paradox of Reich's retrieval set against the core of Reich's analysis which is the (pre)description of the trend towards the disappearance of what he calls the 'national idea'.
What is left are transnational global knowledge webs (that is no longer property based corporations per se) and large holding areas of labour identified with nation states or trading areas. These labour encampments contain in turn 'workers' in three classes: "routine production services, in person services, and symbolic-analytic services." (p.174) Of these categories the first is completely fungible (clonal) with any other labour source and hence is consigned to permanent 'poverty', the second being more site specific is marginally better off but going nowhere (homeostasis), leaving only the third as the skilled technical class created by the rich but whose future Reich sees in terms of the universal, transnational economy.
Having made the case for the disappearance of Tocqueville, and Tocqueville's America Reich then magically brings him back. "What is being lost in this debate is a third, superior position: a positive economic nationalism, in which each nation's citizens take responsibility for enhancing the capacities of their countrymen for full and productive lives, but who also work with other nations to ensure that these improvements do not come at other's expense. " ( p. 311) Here one has come full circle back to the world of Kantian bucolic universal peace with a concomitant belief that technology may hold the promise of morality as well as progress. Here, however, the peaceable kingdom is the simulated realm of virtual systems that operate beyond the nexus of worker/capitalist.
Nonetheless, there is more than a little irony in Reich's role as Secretary of Labor. Reich is, in essence, the chief shop steward of a the Union of Disappearing American Workers; now orchestrating the sacrifice/dispersion of America for the world. Reich pressed after a recent budgetary strategy commented that the federal budget initiatives have in the end mainly only psychological impact. A conjurers budget perfectly suited to the chameleon nature of the Clinton program.
With Galbraith we reach the height of America in recline where culture following that of work, competition and the individual passes into the world of early retirement. Galbraith's 'Hobbesian man' has tired of the self interested pursuit of power after power. Having achieved the fruits of power and authority the pursuit of happiness is now successfully realized, at least for the 'fortunate', in contentment. Galbraith is then the first complete liberal playing out the final logic of the classical political economy of desire where desire finds its end in contentment.
But Galbraith discovers a more than just a dubious basic instinct in contentment for it is as well a 'controlling mood'. This postmodern mood Galbraith sees appearing in the devaluation of politics, the creation of the functional underclass, the continued maintenance of property or bailouts like the savings and loans scandal; the disappearance of the signifiers of modern America all now as controlling factors that undermine democracy.
But as we know from Hobbes, desire's twin is fear; together desire/fear create the alternating currents of Galbraith's liberal America. With the satisfaction of desire (contentment) comes the growth of the military and the private security industry. The controlling mood is one of violence and force. As both Galbraith and Reich note private security has the highest rate of increase in the 'service' sector. America then as a screen for the play of the military role that remains America's 'comparative advantage'. Again Galbraith on democracy which serves as "the rood screen, perhaps more precisely the altar, behind which the modern military-industrial complex enjoys its self-generated and self serving autonomy." (p.138) Here there is no redemption for Galbraith for he has taken liberalism to the moment of its exhaustion leaving only violence and fear — except for the wistful nostalgia of those who see their own culture of contentment bleeding in front of them.
The recuperative moments of Reich, Thurow and Galbraith all wish to save America by recoding with modern signifiers whose eclipse they have documented. In America there are no longer, if there ever was, 'Good Americans', or 'Tocquevillean citizens', or the 'fortunate' who are going to look to the future. America is in the process of disappearing, dispersed across the world in a continuing sacrificial spiral. America now reengineering itself via a technological processes that creates the culture, work, competition and self that is no longer 'made in America' or made anywhere other than in technological space and whose future may well be played out in the only realm that America still holds the edge — violence both inside and outside the nation.

Journal Register Company files Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection
(Publisher's note: Previously, I worked for the Journal Register Company.)
The Journal Register Company, which owns "The Chelsea Standard," filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on Wednesday, Sept. 6.
Here's the press release from the company, "Digital First Media, which operates MediaNews Group, Journal Register Company and Digital First Ventures, today (Sept. 5) announced that Journal Register Company filed voluntary petitions for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York and will seek to implement a prompt sale.
"We expect the auction and sale process to take about 90 days, and we are pleased to announce the company has a signed stalking horse bid for Journal Register Company from 21st CMH Acquisition Co., an affiliate of funds managed by Alden Global Capital LLC," said John Paton, chief executive officer of Digital First Media.
The filing enables Journal Register Company to continue normal business operations during the sale process.
"The Journal Register Company has made solid progress in its digital transformation in the last two years more than doubling its digital audience with 235 percent digital revenue growth from 2009 to 2011," Paton said.
"But that transformation is threatened by a decline in print advertising revenue – the company's largest revenue source – and legacy costs incurred when Journal Register Company's total revenues were nearly twice the size it is today. Since 2009 the Company's pension liabilities grew 52 percent."
"Journal Register Company has reduced its overall costs by about 10 percent while increasing its digital investment by 151 percent and reduced its debt by 28 percent from a height of $225 million in 2009," Paton said.
"However, from 2009-2011 print advertising declined 19 percent and print is more than half of Journal Register Company's total revenue."
Print advertising for the newspaper industry declined about 17 percent over the same time period, according to the Newspaper Association of America. Paton said Journal Register Company circulation print volume and revenues also shrank over the same period.
"After much consideration, the Board of Directors concluded a Chapter 11 filing was the best course of action for Journal Register Company," Paton said. "As difficult as they are, the steps we announced today are steps that will ensure the company's future."

Q: Event Hub Error: Catching an exception: status-code: 401, status-description: Unauthorized TrackingId:xxx I am working on an Azure Function which sends data as a producer to an Event Hub. Azure function is in a different tenant/subscription and Event Hub in a different one. I was able to send data to EventHub from the Functionapp while running a project in my local machine via local-host.
But when i deployed the function to Azure Cloud i am getting the following exception when publishing the data to Eventhub.
Catching an exception: status-code: 401, status-description: Unauthorized TrackingId:XXXX-XXXXX
Event Hub and Function App are in different tenants, different subscriptions. ACL is open between them. Before the ACL is open, got connection closed error and now the above error.
Are any additional firewall or networking updates required on the EventHub?
Thanks in advance.

A: Thank You Anand Sowmithiran for your valuable suggestion. Posting as an Answer to help the other Community Members.

You need to give your function app an Identity, which is then given access by your Event hub(which is on different subscription).

The functionapp does have a system generated identity, should we try adding it to EventHub roles? I doubt if that is needed.

Refer to this Microsoft Blog - Azure Event Hubs support for Azure Active Directory based access control) which guides in using Azure Active Directory (Identity) to control access to Event Hubs.

Lux in Arcana: The Vatican Secret Archives Revealed
January 12, 2012 February 5, 2015 Slow Italy capitoline museums, rome, vatican, vatican city, vatican secret archives
ShareTweetPinterestShare
ShareWhatsappMailSubscribeDiggReddit
An unprecedented and once-in-a-lifetime cultural and media event will take place from March 1 till September 9, 2012 at the Capitoline Museums in Rome: 100 of the most historically significant documents held by the Vatican's Secret Archives will go on public display. It will be the first time in history that so many original documents, covering more than 700 years of history, will be allowed to leave Vatican City.
The exhibition held at the Capitoline Museums in Rome, Lux in arcana – The Vatican Secret Archives revealed, will recount history through its sources. The documents held by the Vatican Archives are extremely important in reconstructing the political, religious and social history of cities, nations and continents. The exhibition features many unique and peculiar documents such as the letter from the American Indians written on an unusual and very fragile material, birch bark. It is in Indian language but written in Western script, and dates to "There where the Great Grasses are [Grassy Lake], in the month of the flowers [may]".
Two documents from 1308-1311 will fascinate the public: the Chinon parchment with the sacramental absolution of the Temple's dignitaries and the Trial against the Order of the Templars contained in a roll 60 linear meters long.
Another impressive document is the letter emanating from Henry VIII to Clement VIII asking for the pope's annulment of the King's first marriage so that he could marry the young Anne Boleyn. The document has been called "the most impressive one ever circulated by the Tudors." Its 83 signatures embody the stories of the protagonists and the victims of some of the bloodiest decades in English history.
The collection also includes a letter on silk from Empress Helena-Wang of China informing the Pope Innocent X of her conversion and that of her son, emperor Yongli-Constantine. The letter was sent in 1650 but would arrive in Rome only in 1655 when Alexander VII had in the meantime succeeded Innocent X.
Other documents include Galileo Galilei's conviction, Luther's excommunication, and many other historical texts.
The Archives treasures also include many curiosities, such as ciphered documents that were subsequently decoded or, in some rare cases, original code-books, the key to decrypt the "secret" text. The oldest ciphered texts kept in the Vatican Secret Archives date back to the first half of the 14th century.
The most common ciphering technique was substitution, when the message's original letters were replaced by other characters, numbers or symbols, by using a ciphered alphabet. The invention of the "ciphering wheel" allowed the use of two or more ciphering alphabets, a technique known as polyalphabetic substitution. From the 15th century on, a new system was employed, halfway between a code and a code-book, which featured a ciphered alphabet and a list of words, names and syllables, just like a small code. This "mixed" system that was usually written on large folded sheets of paper was named nomenclator.
The cryptologists working for the Roman Curia were among the most famous and skilful of the early-modern period. They had their own office of Segretario della Cifra, created in the mid-15th century. In 1861, Vatican espionage succeeded in intercepting ciphered wires between the Savoias and Camillo Benso Cavour, which are preserved nowadays among the Spogli dei Cardinali.
The Vatican Secret Archives are famous all over the world not only for the antiquity, quantity and typology of the documents (some even dating back to the 8th century AD), but also for the bulk of some of them. The heaviest archive item is the volume numbered 8590 in the Vatican Secret Archives. It is 40 cm large, 55 cm tall and 37 cm thick and weighs over 60 kilograms! It is so bulky and heavy that it takes two persons to carry it from the underground bunker of the Vatican Secret Archives to the study rooms.
Opening hours: Tuesday-Sunday: 9.00 am – 8.00 pm; Last admission 1 hour before closing time. Closed: Monday. Capitoline Museums, Rome.

Visit Luther trees in your neighbourhood and find small hidden treasures.
On our map trees with a Geocache are highlighted blue.
Geocaching is a global treasure hunt for the whole family. The basic idea is to hide a container and to publish the position on the web. There are several kinds of caches. Traditional caches consist our of a container, including a logbook and small items (treasures). A GPS-compatible mobile phone or a GPS-receiver and the information published online will lead you close to the treasure. It is also part of the treasure hunt to let nobody know that you are searching for a treasure.
a Luther treasure (cache) ?
See the map of all Luther tree caches. Each location entry contains additional information and a link to geocaching.com / opencaching. There you find the GPS data to the cache. You can also enter the geocaching platforms directly and type in the search term "Luther tree" / "Lutherbaum".
The GPS data will guide you close to the cache. As soon as you have found the cache you sign in the logbook and leave a note on the Geocache website. With the QR-code on the container you receive further information about the Luther tree.
a Luther tree cache ?
After having found a Luther tree in your neighbourhood and collecting information you can create a cache by yourself. Therefor you need a small weatherproof container. Hide the container at the tree or close to it. Create an entry with the GPS position at geocaching.com / opencaching and send further information about the tree to us (link to registration form below).
You can add a text about you and your tree or make a film clip (3 minutes maximum). We publish it on our website as soon as possible. For the cache you will receive a sticker with a QR code from us. This code is linked to the tree-information on our website. You can affix this sticker to your cache.
Somebody from your group should be willing to check on the cache on a regularly basis.
Receive a QR code which you can affix on your cache.
That is quite easy, isn't it?


When doing it for the 'Gram goes wrong.
Turns out the year's hottest accessory is also the same one that'll get you stranded in the middle of a giant lake. Yep, those giant pool floats are all fun and games while getting the perfect Insta pic until you float into a part of a lake that looks more like Shrek's swamp than anything you'd ever want to dip your toe in, which is exactly what happened to a group of women in Minnesota last week.
According to the Chisago County Sheriff's Office's Twitter, two deputies were passing by Fish Lake near Stark, Minnesota when they saw a group of women on a giant unicorn pool float in the middle of a sludge-y lake. Reportedly, the deputies went over just to ask for a picture (maybe they've been MIA from the Internet and haven't heard of a unicorn float before), but when they got closer, they noticed the women were stuck in a bunch of weeds.
Once the deputies realized the five women were stuck, one deputy sprung into action with his "mad rescue roping skills" to save the stranded women while the other deputy, thankfully, caught it all on video. In the video, you can see the women trying and failing to paddle out of the weeds before the deputy threw a rope to reel them in.
Consider this your warning to check the water before floating! It's not all smooth sailing out there!

Koz: Where's the Reset Button?
by Koz
koz@insightbb.com
Last week at this time, Penguins fans were on top of the world. Sidney Crosby had risen to the top of the scoring race and looked ready to pull away. Despite a handful of injuries to key players, including the franchise goalie, the Pens ripped off an incredible winning streak to rise to the top of the standings. Most of this was made possible by Ty Conklin's version of a Western Pennsylvania winter tradition second only to Punxsutawney Phil – namely the random goalie who comes from nowhere to resurrect the Pens out of a mid-season funk.
So where are we today? Suffice it to say, if you were playing out this Penguins season on your Sega Genesis, you'd be looking for the reset button right now.
If you've ever played a sports video game, you know what I'm talking about. Injuries to one or two guys -- ok, that makes it a challenge. Three or four? You start wondering if anyone beta tested the game. Then your star player goes down for "six to eight" in the middle of an MVP season. The coup-de-grace comes in the very next game when two more guys get hurt and you're forced to start a line of computer created players just to fill your lineup. Now you've thrown your controller across the room and your poor dog is walking with a limp. Bad times.
Well this isn't Sega. It's real life. On Monday, Coach Therrien's starting line consisted of three centers (#25 - #11 - #16). The Filewich-Brent-Minard line (I don't even know their numbers) made their season debut, not just as a group, but as individuals. The whole trio has the combined NHL experience of 15 games, and it's all credited to Tim Brent's brief stint with Anaheim last season.
Yesterday, Sidney Crosby announced to the world that he's giving up hockey for Lent. We are one bad rut in the ice away from Kenny the Cotton Candy Guy cracking the fourth line.
He can peddle spun sugar, but can he forecheck?
Where shall we turn for inspiration in these dark days? How about Animal House!?
"Over? Did you say 'over'? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no! And it ain't over now. 'Cause when the goin' gets tough … the tough get going! Who's with me?"
Bluto's right. Psychotic, but absolutely right. I'm in. We're okay. Here's the reality: We're spoiled. We have two of the top 10 players in the NHL. We have Evgeni Malkin.
After scoring 15 points in the last nine games and successfully negotiating peace in the Cedric Wilson hostage situation, Geno was able to convince the NHL honchos he's worthy of the All-Star game. He's possessed right now. Let's assume Malkin continues to beast out and celebrate goals like the Nintendo 64 kid a couple times each game, all the while gaining loads of experience and confidence. If Geno can dominate like this now, why would you put him back on Sid's line? There's no reason the Pens can't get back to the original plan of having Sid and Geno centering the top two lines. Even John Blutarsky with his 0.0 GPA knows two scoring lines are better than one.
Malkin can lead us through the desert and keep us in playoff contention through March. Even with the patchwork group in two games without Sid, the team looks fine. We'll learn a lot from Thursday's game against the Flyers, who will literally be flying because as I write this they are getting embarrassed in their own building by the Devils.
But before I go, I owe you something about the All-Star game and a suggestion to improve the league. I present to you…
The Hockey YouTube of the Week: I'm tired of people ragging on the NHL All-Star game. Okay Canadian media, we get it -- it's not "real" hockey. There's no checking. There's no defense. We know, and we're ok with it. You should be too! It's fun! Just because there's no place for any of the Maple Leafs, doesn't mean we should bag the whole thing. It's not like home-field advantage for the Stanley Cup Finals is on the line (I mean honestly, who would do that? Even the NHL isn't that desperate!). So if you need a reason to rekindle the All-Star magic, here is a must-see that proves the game is relevant, entertaining, and memorable.
In 1990, as a wee lad, I was fortunate to attend the All-Star game at the Civic Arena. Insanity ensued 21 seconds into the game. Special bonus feature: Look for Kerry Fraser's hair. It's criminal that they make him wear a helmet now. Would the NFL ever dream of forcing Ed Hochuli to wear sleeves?
The NHL would be better if the conferences were still named after dead people.
I hope you're feeling better now. Enjoy watching Evgeni and his landlord in Atlanta next week. Oh and please, back away from that reset button.

I always loved how Marv Albert pronounced Patrick Roy's name as "R-wah." Marv's one of the all-time great play-by-play men, but he sucked at calling hockey.
great post. I'm interested to see how the Pens play without Sid. Having Sid out could actually help Geno develop his game and learn that he has to take over sometimes.
God Bless Ty Conklin
I'd give anything to be able to play some Golden Axe right now.

Did any of you ever play the X-Men game for Sega where you actually had to press the reset button to complete the one stage? I was so confused by that part forever, and I think I finally accidentally figured it out.
PS: Since this was posted it was announced that Tyler Kennedy has mononucleosis. I mean, come on now. Seriously? Mono?
What's next? Yellow fever? The mumps? Bubonic plague?


Steven Oduor Dede a.k.a Dj Shiti alias Magazine is the funniest comedian in Kenya. We, indeed are lucky to have him grace our screens as he brings an authenticity that we cannot deny. A master in his own right, Shiti is funny without trying to be funny. That is the sign of a top comedian.
Defined by hardships before his big break, Shiti is the epitome of what it means to hustle, persevere and finally make it.
The man clearly enjoys his craft as he belts out accents and vocabulary only unique to him. When you own a brand and play you, then we say you are well on the way of mastering your craft.
Shiti was born and bred in Mumias and his chance to fame came knocking when he met Jalang'o, who by then, was in the inner circles of Kenyan comedy.
After an audition with 100 episodes of Churchill show, the man got his break, though it was still tough for him to adjust to the fast-paced lifestyle of Nairobi.
He admits in interviews that he had to seek help from twilight girls to survive and get something to it.
It was not always going to be like that.
Shiti had a dream, and it came to first step fulfilment when he was cast for The Real Househelps of Kawangware, a TV show in one of the local Kenyan channels.
Although he was set to only appear in five episodes, the love he generated in the show's faithful led to the creation of a permanent spot for him.
His videos make their way to social media and are shared numerous times, because of that special thing they have: uniqueness.
To be a great comedian, you must know your audience and prepare accordingly. He appeals to individuals who can relate to the struggles of an ordinary Kenyan.
Just watch his videos and interviews; you will know what I mean. If you are able to think quickly on your feet, you have won.
Comedy is hard work. You keep trying even if your audience doesn't get the jokes. For him to get to where he is now, it has taken toil and hours of perfecting his craft. This is perseverance.


Here's a little history, since some of my students are starting to look me up on the web. It's also a story about how life is so weird that, if you wrote about it in a movie, the audience would say 'no way'. Ready for some acronym soup?
After getting a degree in the US, I was hired to work on a joint US/NASA mission (called ASCA or Asuka, depending on which language you use). I got to work in Japan at their space agency, called ISAS, for that and, yes, it was as awesome as you might imagine. Later I returned to the US to work on other missions, then got my PhD, then went freelance, and now I'm a professor at Capitol College.
One good comment is worth a thousand readers. In the past three weeks, as I've been busy with midterms, my Calliope posts have been simply brief blog-entries rather than full articles. And with that, I've gotten great resources and leads on issues like Cubesat conferences and ganged Cubesat flights.
The latter doesn't mean gangs of roving Cubesats builders picking on non-techies, though I admit that could be fun. Rather, a poster told me about the Cal Poly group that helps broker flights for people who don't have their own rocket.
SpaceUp: any of the regional ones. The previous SpaceUpDC was fruitful for me.
AAS (American Astronomical Society) twice-yearly meetings. I will be at the Jan 2014 one, in D.C.
AIAA (American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics) has focused topical conferences, plus an annual on Jan 2013 that might be worth attending. I haven't been, but a colleague recommends them, and I'd love to hear from others who have attended AIAA events.
14 space agencies walk into a bar... Okay, no joke. The ISECG Initiative (I added 'Initiative' because it sounds more sci-fi) is an attempt to basically let individuals at different science institutes share information. Given the strength of Intellipedia and perhaps even Wikipedia, it seems info sharing might be the way to go.
Sonification-- like our Project Calliope satellite will do-- is taking the measurements of something and converting it to sound so you can hear the patterns and rhythms in an intuitive manner, rather than trying to figure out those patterns as numbers or graphs. It a way to remix data.
Apparently a TED talk discusses doing the opposite-- taking data and saying it is like sound. That's a step I'm not willing to take, but Janna Levin considers gravity waves a cosmological equivalent to sound. Err, okay? I suppose it's good enough for TED.


I did see a lot of art, but it was when I was thirteen that we visited the National Gallery together. That was the first time I got to see a Pollock. This very long Pollock, long and narrow. It was a very meaningful experience for me, and I think that shaped the way I think. I wasn't a writer then. At thirteen, I'd never thought about writing. But the experience of understanding that you cannot take the entire work in at once, yet that there are places you can enter—I still hold onto that.


What does frenzy look like?
Discussion in 'Barbarian' started by Breakdown, Aug 28, 2006.
It's pretty much like double swing, however, with each hit, your attack, and running speed get a bit quicker.
Frenzy is, in a way, a bit like the druid Feral Rage and Maul in that you get a temporal boost when you hit with your Frenzy swing.
You have seen the visual cue for an active Frenzy countless times as it is the skill used by Thorned Hulks and Minotaurs (most commonly known as "Frenzytaurs" for exactly this reason).

Huntley Community School District 158COVID-19Updated Guidelines Regarding Quarantining After Close Contact
Updated Guidelines Regarding Quarantining After Close Contact
Huntley 158 families,
On Wednesday afternoon we were notified by the McHenry County Department of Health of updated guidelines regarding quarantining of students due to close contact in a classroom with an individual who has tested positive for COVID-19. We are pleased that this change has been made, reflecting the concerns we and other area districts have voiced around this topic.
Definition of "Close Contact" Within Classroom Setting
Effective immediately, within a classroom space that is strictly adhering to mitigation interventions, close contacts may be defined as being within 3 feet of the confirmed case for a cumulative period of 15 minutes over 24 hours and not fully vaccinated.
Appropriate mitigation will be assessed by the School Nurse or District's liaison and discussed with MCDH staff.
This new guideline effectively reduces the distance defining a "close contact" from 6 feet to 3 feet within the classroom setting.
All fully vaccinated staff and/or students that are identified as a close contact will not be required to quarantine.
Quarantining for 14 days is still required for close contact exposure to a confirmed case within 6 feet of the confirmed case for a cumulative period of 15 minutes over 24 hours and not fully vaccinated in all other settings outside of the classroom, to include, but not limited to lunchrooms, buses, and extracurricular activities. These exposures will be assessed by the School Nurses or the District's liaison and discussed with MCDH staff.
Quarantine Period Before Returning to In-person Instruction
Close contacts of a known COVID-19 case that are in quarantine may be permitted to attend in-person instruction only after 10 days under the following conditions:
Close contact remains asymptomatic since the date of their known exposure
Close contact has ability to strictly adhere to mask wearing, social distancing, and hand and cough hygiene while attending in-person instruction
This 10 day option is only permitted for in-person education. This option is not permitted for extracurricular activities including sports. Although close contacts may return to in-person instruction, they shall continue to quarantine when outside of the classroom setting for the full 14 days since the date they were last known to have been exposed.
Close contacts are considered potentially infectious until 14 days after the date they were last known to have been exposed. If the close contact experiences any symptoms during the 14 days after they were last known to have been exposed, they should immediately self-isolate and alert their local health department regarding this change in clinical status. MCDH requires that close contacts are to be monitored through the IDPH symptom monitoring system in order to use this option.
Thank you for your continued cooperation and patience throughout this year.

HHS Class of 2021 Graduation Livestream Links Message to Families May 14, 2021


Two thousand years ago the Prince of Peace atoned for the sins of his fellow-men on earth by mounting the Cross with words of forgiveness and love for his persecutors. And though man felt ashamed and humiliated he did not mend his ways.
The primitive man hunted for food; in the middle ages he killed for glory. The supermen of our age stalked the globe with a technique of slaughter and enslavement in the wake of greed and exploitation. The earth was rent with weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth. Humanity lay prostrate under the agony of 'unnamable' outrages.
In the midst of all this clash and conflict came, once more, a Wise Man from the East. Like the Good Shepherd he shouldered the ailing sheep, the insulted indentured Indian, toiling far away from home, and comforted him and his tribe. With words soothing and life-giving, he sayeth unto them: "Come ye that grieve and are heavily laden. I bring to you good tidings, --the Gospel of Resistance."
And he shepherded his flock and ministered unto them in their afflictions with tenderness and affection. He taught the worm to turn. He taught little mothers to stand upright and resist racial arrogance and insult, marching with babes in their arms and courting prisons.
He sat among overbearing foreigners and pleaded his people's cause, disarming them with his courtesy and his integrity. He evoked their sympathy with his gentle sufferings and earned a great renown.
"You are the salt of the earth. Ye are to establish once more, by testifying to it in and with your lives in this holy land of synthesis, the supremacy of soul over matter; of God over Mammon; of service over self-interest. And ye are to carry the Gospel of this non-violent resistance to the farthest ends of the earth. In this redeeming task, he who shall lose his life shall find it, and he who shall seek to save his life shall lose it."
"To me there is no God other than this. It is my sole weapon and my refuge. And know ye, that it is not the weapon of the weak. It is for the bravest. Learn ye, therefore, to wield it against all your ills. It shall sustain you against the mightiest. For it is forged on the anvil of Love that exalteth and that abideth in God."
And behold! Great multitudes followed him.
And he covered the entire land with his journeys, plying his wheel, and with its thread linked men with men, - whole masses of them.
The toilers came from their fields and spinners from their hovels; fishermen left their nets, tradesmen their counters. Rich men, encumbered with large possessions, came too, in search of solace, and he lightened their burdens. Women came resurrected and awakened to the true dignity of their state. The untouchables came with their limbs withered and their souls crushed under the weight of age-old inequities. And he ministered unto them with all the passion of his soul and made them whole.
He made them God's Chosen. Came also the publicans, the hated ones -- servants of Government -- who served the alien rulers and worked against their own country for a mess of pottage. And he called upon them to repent and turned many into humble servants of the dumb millions. Lepers came and he built them shelters and himself washed their wounds. Came also the pharisees, the learned ones, negotiators and peace-mongers. And he suffered them all and treated them with unfailing patience and tenderness.
They came from distant lands and from across the seven seas. They came from all parts of the earth. And he taught them all and made them good men and women. Even like one of his great predecessors, - The Guru Gobind - he would make the sparrow hunt down the hawk, but with a different weapon. With patient labours of a lifetime extending over half a century and spread over the entire land, he worked on his people to forge his weapon and to temper it.
Out of dross he made precious metal; out of earth-clods he made material to challenge and defy the might of an insolent empire; to whose people he bore the greatest friendship, and yet whose end he ordained, even as Krishna had ordained the end of the arrogant Jadavas. He called upon the foreigner to quit the land which he had bled white and in which he had worked much inequity.
And behold! For the first time in human history the world witnessed an epic struggle of a whole nation locked for three decades in non-violent combat with the alien rulers so that her chains should break.
A saga of peaceful peasantries challenging the might of established authority, armed to the teeth, by refusing to submit to its unjust levies, inviting upon themselves untold sufferings and living under conditions of a siege till the privations turn them and their cattle white; of millions throughout the length and breadth of the country defying salt laws in the face of lathis, tear-gas, horse-hoofs; women refusing to part with their pinch of salt till their bones dislodge; men tying their own hands with iron wires to prevent slackening of their grip on raided salt; of gallant men who would be counted among the very peak of any army, offering to be beaten or pounded to death, by official myrmidons, without so much as raising their eyelids in protest; of statesmen, savants, tribunes of their own people - objects of world adoration, leaders of men and of an age, who would adorn the halls of any international assembly -- accepting cheerfully to surrender long indefinite years of their great lives to be wasted in cold, dark, solitary dungeons on a par with felons; of the nation's Bards pouring forth the agony of an age before sobbing magistrates in crowded court-rooms; of apostles who walked the land bare-foot, broadcasting the New Gospel carrying neither purse nor shoes nor yet staves, pleading guilty against their accusers and urging the courts to inflict on them maximum penalties; of wandering monks offering to starve themselves to death in protest against outraged womanhood through long agonizing fasts without a trace of ill-will towards the guilty; of frail little men offering to lay down their lives denying themselves in their prison cells all food and water till death do deliver them, and in the meanwhile coaxing their captors to administer 'without blame' 'some suitable poison' when their sufferings did annoy them; of street urchins proudly mounting the gallows after being court-martialed for bold pranks; of village peasants naively facing military reprisals, with no better armour than plywood planks hung in front of their chests; of whole masses of unarmed, undrilled men and women flinging themselves in blind abandon against bayonets, bullets, guns and bombs.
Righteousness the world over wailed in oblivion. Untruth was in excelsis. Naked Fascism masquerading in the garb of aggrieved innocence stalked the land. It maligned virtue with impunity. Truth was lynched. The stars in high heavens wept over the inequities and the vileness of man. And against it all, in his indignation, the Father of the Nation lay crouched and twisted on his Bed of Fire for the tenth time, challenging his accusers from behind the prison.
And his protest rang through the world penetrating the Iron Curtain. His Great Disciple, who was to him more than his own son, and 'with whom my Father is well pleased', lay in a handful of ashes at the prison corner. And the gentle Mother of the Nation was to meet her millions no more. Outside the prison raged Revolution. The Empire shook, and his mighty accusers trembled. They fell flat. Their chagrin knew no bounds. And behold! The Titan collapsed under the weight of his own inequities.
And he quitted; but not without upholding the disruptionist who clamour for rending his own Mother's garments. Freedom came, but Her face was ghastly. Brother flew at the throat of brother, and women wept. Millions were uprooted and flung on the roadside. Men lost all their sense and shame, and they burned and killed and perpetrated unmentionable abominations. Cities swelled with fleeing men and wailing women. They cursed and called aloud for retribution.
Overwhelmed and humiliated, the anguished Father, bent under the infirmities of age, runs once more to their succour, even like the hen covering her brood under her wings against death. He takes his abode among the sorrowing. He faces the Fiery Ordeal again and again and works miracles.
He repeats to them his lasting message: "Not through hatred and ill-will ye shall seek to avenge yourselves. 'Vengeance is mine' sayeth the Lord. Grieve not; forsake your fear; work and strive for goodwill and unity. For know ye who are afflicted, that Love exalteth, Love alone triumphs."
And he gathered them around him evening after evening as was his wont and prayed with them for the purification of their hearts, beseeching them and admonishing them and instructing them with his words of wisdom and cheer.
They gathered in the ancient city under whose precincts mighty empires lay in dust and in whose neighbourhood his Great Predecessor taught Eternal Wisdom to Man from His Chariot on the battlefield. But so that the Scriptures may be fulfilled, and that the world's Martyrdom may attain its perfection, behold! there comes on the scene, once more, the infamous Ashwathama - the perverse Assassin of Ages, the vile Brahmarakshas with the eternal wound on his mangled head and condemned to everlasting life of a roving ghost, - the embodiment of the accumulated evil of his race.
He comes unrepentant and unrelenting, aye, even with a gusto within, for his unholy design, and accomplishes his foul deed of calculated cold murder before the eyes of a staggered multitude, to the everlasting shame and humiliation of his nation.
To Thee, Father of our Nation! we pay our grateful reverent homage. We salute Thee. We rejoice in the midst of our tears and our shame. We rejoice rather than sorrow and are grateful that the merciful Providence spared Thee to us to accomplish our deliverance, however shameful and agonising the aftermath. We glory in Thy having walked our earth. For Thou hast given to mankind new values and compelled obeisance from a recalcitrant world by challenging it once again to measure its own stature against them.
Thou art indeed in the line of Thy recurring Predecessors - the Great Saviours of mankind.
Thou didst come to fulfil the Scriptures and to fulfil the pledge made in the Song Celestial: "For the protection of the Good, for the destruction of the Wicked, and for the firm establishment of righteousness on Earth, I am born again and again."
Even so through ages hast Thou lived and laboured again and again. All Thy life didst Thou wear Thy Crown of Thorns and bear Thy Cross, finding life's final fulfilment in surrendering it as a ransom for our own sins and shortcomings. Greater love, indeed, hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for goodwill among his fellow men.
We salute Thee, Father of our Nation! None that hath received Thy Light shall walk in darkness.
Swami Anand, born as Himmatlal Ramchandra Dave, took a vow of renunciation while still in his teens, took on the name Swami Anand and became a monk with the Ramakrishna Mission. Before he met Mahatma Gandhi in 1915 on the latter's return to India from South Africa, he worked in the Kesari, the Marathi newspaper founded by Bal Gangadhar Tilak.
After Gandhiji launched his weekly, the Navjeevan from Ahmedabad four years later he sent for Anand to become the manager of the publication. Swami Anand took over its management in late 1919. He proved to be a good editor and manager and when the Young India was launched, he moved the publication to larger premises.
Gandhiji's autobiography was serialised in the Navjeevan from 1925 to 1928. It was written by Gandhiji at Swami Anand's insistence. The English translation of these chapters was done by Gandhiji's principal secretary Mahadev Desai which appeared in instalments in the Young India as well.

Well you all know I love to bag a thrifting bargain, so I had to show you my cheapest purchase to date. I've been wanting a jersey wrap dress for ages, so when I spotted this one by New Look in my local Sue Ryder charity shop a couple of weeks ago, I thought it would be ideal.
Here I'm wearing it with my 'Virgin Vie' costume jewellery necklace and my Alberta Ferretti sandals which were from Oxfam a good few years ago.
I love the colours and pattern of this dress-turquoise is great for summer and it's what attracted me to it initially, plus the cut around the neckline is just right for me too.
The reason I got my dress for 25p is that I have a 'loyalty card' with my local Sue Ryder! Its a great scheme they run, in that for every £5 you spend they stamp your card and when its full of stamps you get a free £5 spend in the shop! So the dress was £5.25, but I only had to pay 25p-this is my cheapest buy this year!!
Whats been your cheapest find of the year?
Great dress. I think my cheapest find this year was a pink lace dress for $5.
i really like your dress. and such a bargain!
not such a bargain, but i'm having memory loss and can't seem to remember the past 8 months!
You look fantastic - as always, what a steal!
Wow! You are always sooo Gorgeous, it's as if you just stepped out of a magazine! Hmmm, my cheapest find is still hiding somewhere!
Love it! And I love the Sue Ryder loyalty card concept it is fab!
Score! The dress is beautiful and suits you so well. I love the sandals too. Unfortunately, charity shops are not a big thing in Austria (yet), people take their designer stuff to second hand shops which are still expensive.
25p is definitely a record -- soon these places will be paying you instead of the other way around. The dress fits you perfectly too.
What an amazing find, darling S! And it looks lovely on you!
P.S. Just got some Chloe sandals at 80% off, my best deal of the summer!
That is absolutely ridiculous, 25p!! I feel so extravagant with my Primarni purchases now!
I scored Via Spiga shoes for $16.00!
That was a super find!It looks wonderful on you.
I bought a black 100% cashmere perfect little fitted jacket for $1 aussie dollar on Friday, that's one of my cheaper finds lately, and a little pair of gold leather 80s flats that same day for fifty cents.
What a great find at a great price! I think the cheapest I got stuff for was around the 5 EUR mark for tops and I just paid 3 GBP for a black long-sleeved top. But I'm definitey impressed you got an entire dress for that price - and one this perfect as well!
Just discovered your blog - great finds! I especially love those 50s dresses pictured on the side of your blog. You look great in them.
Look forward to dropping by again.
Hi everyone-thanks so much for all your lovely comments, they are very much appreciated!!
cool deal. hmmm..I almost bought something for 4.99. I was going to alternate it though. It was just too long. I have been looking at dresses in thrift stores lately that would make better tops for me..since I'm short and use the bottom half to make other things with..everything from aprons to pillows. And lavender heart pillows do make great gifts.
I never fail to be shocked at your bargains when I come across your page. What madness!
the Sue Ryder scheme is great! love that dress on you, the cut looks so great on you honey.the print is delish. hope you have had a good weekend.
I like the pattern on that, classic and timeless!
You have me beat all the way around and upside down! Nothing at that price Awesome!


Scalia argues that copyright infringement has a volitional component: you have to try to do the specific infringing act. Citing some concurring case law, he then argues that Aero has not actually done anything at all except respond in an automated way to what its subscribers have done. All the system does is deliver content you select without its assistance in that selection. Since to 'perform' has a volitional component, and since Aero's service is automated and not volitional, Aero does not 'perform' the works in question, publicly or not. As examples, he distinguishes a photocopier (which does not in any way select what the user copies) from Netflix (which carefully curates its library of streaming materials from the universe of possible materials). Breyer relies on an analogy to cable-TV, and Scalia is targeting that: cable is a lot more like Netflix than the photocopier, since cable makes decisions about what content to carry. As he puts it, "deliberately selecting and importing distant signals, originating programs, [and] selling commercials … mak[es] them curators of content—more akin to video-on-demand services than copy shops. So far as the record reveals, Aereo does none of those things" (internal citations omitted).
The distinction being made – the user selects what to pay attention to versus the provider curates – goes to the heart of one of the more important normative issues behind the rise of the Internet (and of the neoliberal theories invoked by Silicon Valley startups): to what extent does the rise of the Internet erode any meaningful sense of a 'public' sphere? Set aside for a moment the race, gender and class (an embarrassed etc. goes here) problems with any actually existing public sphere. As numerous commentators have noted (see, for example, here and here), there are problems for democracy and civil society when one never has chance encounters with things that one might not like, or might not have selected had she known what was coming. Mass media may get a lot of things wrong, and be terrified to report anything neither friendly to its corporate owners nor handed to it on a presidential spoon, but reading a newspaper like the New York Times is still very different from getting the feed from a liberal blog. The newspaper tries to gauge, however imperfectly, what "the public" wants to hear; the liberal blog tries to gauge what people like its self-selected subscribers want to hear. The same distinction applies to broadcast TV, on the one hand, versus the trajectory that runs from cable TV through to video on demand, on the other: for the cable-to-VOD trajectory, you are paying the company to select content that you, individually, will like (cable is basically a monopoly within a geographic area, so they don't have to try very hard at this. But even cable offers sports or movie bundles). In other words, the cable-to-VOD experience is fundamentally privatized, a little more like living in a gated community or a suburb with a strong HOA, and a little less like living in an apartment on a public street overlooking the famous speaker's corner.
What Scalia's dissent shows is that, although it sounds a lot like these other privatized things, Aero actually worked in the opposite direction: even though it was a Silicon Valley startup, it used private equipment to reproduce the experience of being a member of the public. You could watch the same network shows as anybody else, and no intermediary was trying to curate the content to fit its profile of you as an individual.
If we turn now to the opinion, we see precisely a conflation of "public" and "individual subscribers." The decision hinges on the claim that Aero (a) performs content (b) for/to the public. But the construction of public here is the DailyMe. Here are two passages that support that interpretation.
Neoliberalism for the win: a whole bunch of people sitting alone in their living rooms with the blinds drawn, looking at the same content, constitute the "public" as long as they don't know each other. By doing the same activity alone in different places, they have "gathered." "Public" is thus a principle of aggregation – enough individuals do the same thing and it's "public" – but no longer a question of content curation or its lack. That tradition of understanding the publicness of speech simply disappears, occluded by the satisfaction of individualized preferences.
I don't know the caselaw behind the 1976 statutory language well enough to argue the hermeneutic point. But it does look like that, even though a Silicon Valley startup lost, Silicon Valley won today.

Versatile Coding for Robust, Portable Programs
Floating-point math often confuses programmers. I'm not going to try to clear up all the things that lead to confusion here; there isn't enough space. I'm only going to talk about two terms, "exception" and "trap", that each mean two different things depending on whether you're talking about C++ or about floating-point math. Keep the context in mind and you're less likely to be confused.
Each of these contexts has its own fundamental document. For C++ it's the C++ standard, formally known as ISO/IEC 14882:2003. That defines the syntax and semantics of the C++ programming language, and tells you what a program that meeets the syntactic and semantic requirements should do. Floating-point math also has a document, variously known as IEEE-754, IEC 559, and IEC 60559:1989. (There's a more recent version of this one that adds decimal floating-point math, but that doesn't concern us now.) It prescribes the layout and properties of single- and double-precision floating-point types, and the properties, but not the layout, of higher precision versions of these two types. More important for our purposes now, it sets out what you can do with those types and what happens when an error occurs.
The C++ standard doesn't say much about floating-point arithmetic, leaving it up to the implementation to document what it does. Many systems, including the ubiquitous PC, follow the IEEE-754 standard. So, even though the C++ standard doesn't require it, we'll look here at how errors are handled under IEEE-754.
In C++, when your code detects an error that can't be fixed locally, it should throw an exception. Some function higher up in the call stack should catch that exception. If no function catches the exception, the program exits with a call to std::terminate().
According to IEEE-754, when something unusual occurs in floating-point math, such as dividing 0.0 by 0.0 or dividing 1.0 by 0.0, an exception occurs. This is not a C++ exception; it's a floating-point exception. The default behavior of floating-point exceptions is benign: 0.0/0.0 becomes a NaN (Not A Number) value, and 1.0/0.0 becomes an infinity value.
Under IEEE-754, your program can change the behavior of a floating-point exception by installing a "trap handler". Standard C and Standard C++ do not support trap handlers. You'll have to check your compiler's documentation if you want to do this.
A trap handler is a function that will be called when a floating-point exception occurs. It should set or clear the appropriate floating-point status flags, and return a value that will be used as the result of the invalid operation.
For example, if your program has installed a trap handler for the invalid operation exception, whenever your code tries to do an invalid floating-point operation such as dividing 0.0 by 0.0 your trap handler will be called. To imitate the default behavior for this exception, your trap handler would set the invalid operation flag and return a NaN value.
A trap representation, on the other hand, is entirely different. Under the C99 standard, it refers to a value that results in undefined behavior if you try to use it. Undefined behavior means that the C++ standard doesn't tell you what happens. Some hardware systems will do nasty things with variables that hold trap representations, on the theory that detecting bad values is good for you.
So the next time you're confused about floating-point errors, remember that a floating-point exception is not a C++ exception, and that a trap handler has nothing to do with a trap representation.

Catholic actor says improv performances offer life lessons

by Andrew Nelson
WOODSTOCK, Ga. (CNS) — It's a pre-eminent rule for performers under the bright lights: Make the other actors look better.
That's solid advice for life, says improvisational actor Joe Lemmo.
This Catholic funnyman mixes his stage skills and faith with young people on retreats for life lessons, laughs with engaged couples as future brides and grooms stretch their communication muscles and emcees parish events to make people grin. He also leads a class of students in the craft of improv comedy.
A fifth-grade teacher in the Cherokee County School District by day, Lemmo takes to the stage as part of the iThink Improv Troupe after hours. He performs in Woodstock, where he lives with his wife, Justine, and their toddler. He also performs at The Basement Theatre in Atlanta, and other venues.
Comedy began for the Pennsylvania native with the ability to find humor when out with friends.
"Something happened, I find the comedy in it, I went with it," he told The Georgia Bulletin, newspaper of the Archdiocese of Atlanta.
Lemmo joined the nonprofit iThink Improv to channel the humor. He is now a director.
"It's theater, without a script, based on audience suggestion," he said talking about improv.
Audience tips challenge the 41-year-old to play a portfolio of characters, create scenes out of nothing but a chair on a stage and also experience uplifting moments.
His first stage show was in 2010 and he remembers "love at first laugh," he said. It's hard to beat the feeling of being on stage, said Lemmo, where he can make "a choice in the moment that creates an eruption of laughter."
Asked what makes a good show, Lemmo said he's a bad judge since he has left shows feeling he bombed, but with others thinking it was great. The reaction taught him to think beyond himself.
"I've learned that I can't focus on my own performance when determining whether a show was good or not because it's not about individuality," he said.
He looks at "The Tonight Show" host Jimmy Fallon as a model. The comic seems to be filled with joy and entertains all guests as if they are the best guests ever to appear on the show, Lemmo said.
With a bearded face and wearing a plaid shirt in the basement of the Elm Street Cultural Arts Village in Woodstock, Lemmo repeated a fact of stage life to be lived off stage, too. Put other's success in front of your own, he said.
"The more you make the people around you look better, the better you, in fact, will look," Lemmo added.
Lemmo entertains in what he called "clean comedy." Off-color humor can have its place for adults but crosses a line for him when actors make it crass.
"Most of our conversations in life are appropriate. You are looking for something unusual that becomes the comedy of the scene. I feel like most of the time in the real world, funny things that happen to us are less based on inappropriate language, but funny, awkward situations. You are looking for the creative connections of things," he said.
Jason Wilson worked with Lemmo for the several years as a performer. Asked for three words to describe his colleague, he called him "kind, humble and silly."
"Unlike many improv artists, Joe doesn't go for the cheap laugh but truly works the art form and cares about the audience experience," he said.
This past summer, Lemmo's Catholic improv troupe was a surprise for teenagers at St. Joseph's Church in Marietta. Their work was so impressive, the actors were invited back for another teen event in September. The troupe also entertained a crowd at the annual Knight of Columbus auction at Lemmo's home parish, St. Michael the Archangel Church in Woodstock.
Lisa Fiamingo, director of youth ministry at St. Joseph's, booked Lemmo and the Catholic troupe of performers twice during the summer.
"One of the keys to keeping teens Catholic is to facilitate solid life-giving friendships at church," Fiamingo said in an email. "The improv troupe helps a new group to break the ice and begin laughing together.
"They also fit teachable moments into their act that have a big impact. The teens walk away inspired to develop a moral compass in their own humorous exchanges," she added.
One of Lemmo's goals is to collaborate with parish programs to share improv as a tool for faith education and fun.
Lemmo recently led a workshop for the Archdiocese of Atlanta's "Joy-Filled Marriage" program for engaged couples. He likes to add fun with improv games so couples laugh at each other.
Improv requires actors to focus on the moment. Couples who spend too much time living in the past or focusing on the future can miss amazing moments happening now, he said, in relating the skill to marriage.
Improv works the best when following the rule of "Yes, and."
Every improvisational scene requires the actor to listen, acknowledge what was said and then build on top of it, he said.
A good relationship is built on listening and then enriching it by contributing, he said. The same goes for a relationship with God. Lemmo said people pray, but with God, believers steal from themselves with conditions on the relationship by saying "yes, but."
"We need to say 'yes, and,' which means we accept and trust the opportunities and situations God is presenting to us, and we act on them appropriately."
