5 years on, would you have ever considered skydiving Jerseys to have become the industry norm?
Marketing value is being added by the second on social media, (even right now) purely through brand recognition by identifying Dropzones, Staff and Competitors by their colours and design, just as national sports teams have done for decades. This is the benchmark now (out with those cheap t-shirts) Skydiving Jerseys and apparel with breathability, durability and performance.
With the addition of a few more companies trying their hands at the rag-trade, making sure your partnering up with a leading manufacturer and not simply buying a look-a-like product used in a related sport, will stop you from missing out on the key functions that make all the difference during jumping weather.
When it comes to shopping for new clothes, we're always trying to find the bargain. If something can be bought for less, why not grab it? Although this mindset makes sense for everyday clothes, (to save a buck or two to spend on extra jump), you can't afford to think the same way about clothing or gear that and serves a purpose.
The strength of a seam, the flexibility of a fabric and the fit of your skydiving Jersey matters – a lot.
The process behind what your wearing is not often considered, simply because you trust that the design team is thinking of you – well we are, because we are you. Skydivers, BASE Jumpers, Paragliders, Swoopers and SkyGods.
Innovation requires development, research and testing; necessary steps to successfully building what we believe to be the well-designed features included as standard in our extreme sports apparel.
Sports apparel requires higher standards of performance to lifestyle wear. Cotton, has a natural breathability, but it lacks the strength of man-made synthetic fibres which we have taken advantage of – polyester. Sports apparel companies around the world utilise polyester for its strength, and by leveraging today's technology by combining the characteristics of cotton with our polyester in the fabric composition, we strive to increase your comfort while enjoying your adrenaline-filled flying.
200km/h (120mph) is the average speed you're faced with after exiting the plane. Fact: Skydiving apparel needs to be built to handle the stresses of freefall, whilst not causing excess drag on your body. Paying attention to the effects of seam construction and engineering the right fit before testing styles in the sky, tunnel and (most importantly on competitive athletes) can be a slow process but is a priority for increasing your speed on jump run.
Durability must be guaranteed. Products must perform at a higher peak and for longer, because this is what you expect and what you need to keep skydiving and flying. Although the investment might be staring you down now, the return for years to come will be worth it. Not to mention, it will showcase your brand to an audience that is literally flipping through pictures hour by hour!
Combining the strength of steel and the softness of silk is a balancing act that requires compromise. Manufactory Apparel will always put durability first, our products are built for extreme customers. We do not compromise on quality.
As a result, our value reflects our commitment to quality – and we wouldn't have it any other way!
That's why quality is the new norm; quality, consistency and reliability in extreme sports apparel.

«Лобстер» () — фильм режиссёра Йоргоса Лантимоса, вышедший на экраны в 2015 году. Лента была показана в рамках конкурсной программы Каннского кинофестиваля 2015 года, где получила Приз жюри.

Сюжет
Главного героя Дэвида отправляют в «отель» после того, как жена бросила его. Менеджер отеля сообщает, что у одиноких постояльцев есть 45 дней, чтобы найти партнера, или они будут превращены в животное. Спутником Дэвида является собака — бывший брат Дэвида, который не смог найти себе партнера. В первые дни пребывания в отеле Дэвид знакомится с Робертом («Шепелявый Мужчина») и Джоном («Хромой Мужчина»), которые становятся его друзьями. Дэвид также замечает трех женщин: Женщина с Носовыми Кровотечениями, Женщина, Любящая Сдобное Печенье, и Бессердечная Женщина.

В «отеле» много правил и ограничений: мастурбация запрещена, но сексуальная стимуляция со стороны горничной в отеле является обязательной. В качестве развлечений гости ходят на танцы и смотрят театральные сценки, пропагандирующие преимущества партнерства в сравнении с недостатками жизни в одиночестве. Также гости по вечерам отправляются на охоту на одиноких людей, которые живут в лесу. Каждый пойманный «одиночка» добавляет один день к проживанию в отеле. Однажды во время охоты Женщина, Любящая Сдобное Печенье, предлагает Дэвиду секс, от которого он отказывается. Она говорит ему, что если ей не удастся найти себе пару, она убьет себя, выпрыгнув из окна отеля.

Джон привлекает внимание одной женщины, симулируя кровотечение из носа. Общая особенность позволяет им съехаться в один номер и начать «пробный период» отношений в течение месяца. Если сожительство будет успешным — они смогут уехать из отеля вместе. Роберту не удается найти партнершу, а Дэвид решает ухаживать за Бессердечной Женщиной, которая поймала на охоте больше одиночек, чем кто-либо другой. Дэвид притворяется бессердечным и безэмоциональным, чтобы заполучить внимание Бессердечной Женщины. Во время очередного разговора Бессердечная симулирует удушье, но Дэвид игнорирует это; тогда Бессердечная Женщина решает, что они подходят друг другу. Однажды утром Дэвид обнаруживает, что его спутница избила его собаку до смерти. Дэвид старается сдержать эмоции, но вид мертвого брата вызывает у него слезы. Бессердечная сразу же направляется к менеджеру, чтобы сообщить об обмане Дэвида. Однако Дэвид убивает Бессердечную (или превращает её в животное) и сбегает из отеля.

Дэвид присоединяется к одиночкам в лесу. В отличие от отеля, они запрещают любые романтические отношения и презирают взаимопомощь. Флирт, поцелуи и другие проявления чувств караются увечьями. Однако Дэвид знакомится с Близорукой Девушкой, и общая особенность вызывает у пары сильные чувства. Они тайно встречаются, придумывают общий язык жестов и вместе ходят на секретные миссии в город, идеально изображая влюбленную пару. У них возникает желание сбежать.

Лидер Одиночек находит личный дневник Близорукой Женщины и узнает о плане побега. Лидер отправляет Близорукую в город, чтобы сделать операцию по улучшению зрения, однако вместо этого ослепляет её. Дэвид и его возлюбленная пытаются найти другие общие особенности, но кроме близорукости у них нет ничего общего. Однажды утром Дэвид связывает Лидера Одиночек, оставляя её в могиле, у которой потихоньку собираются дикие собаки. Наконец он и Слепая Женщина могут сбежать в город. Пара останавливается в пригородном ресторане. Дэвид направляется в туалет, с целью ослепить себя. Однако его решение остается неизвестно зрителю.

#Review: With Confidence – Love And Loathing 🥀
21/08/2018 21/08/2018 Matt Wright - Muzik Speaks2 Comments
With Confidence are a pop punk band from Sydney, Australia, who formed back in 2012. Having been through some line-up changes, the band now consists of Jayden Seeley (lead vocals & bass), Inigo Del Carmen (lead guitar & backing vocals) and Joshua Brozzesi (drums). In 2016, the band signed to Hopeless Records and released their debut album Better Weather. Now, in 2018, the band are back with their sophomore record, Love And Loathing. Here's what we have to say about it…
This feels very much like the band have studied and followed the recipe for making the perfect pop punk record, down to a tee…and that's not even a bad thing! Somehow, the record feels timeless within the realm of the genre but without sounding like a carbon copy of so many others. After only a couple of listens, it feels just like returning to an old favourite that has been in my collection for years!
Opening track, 'That Something', is a stunning way to kick off an album – it's got catchy vocals (but not obviously so) about finding a new love interest, paired with strong instrumentals of varied tempos, topped off with superb and subtle production flourishes.
Other huge tracks to take note of, include: 'The Turnaround' is a massive tune about making a change in your life and grabbing it by the horns, all accompanied by seriously incredible falsetto vocals; 'Jaded' which is a fast-paced thrashing track that you might find from the likes of Simple Plan; 'Better' is probably my favourite song on the record – about the desire to improve yourself with it's occasionally satirical lyrics and soaring high-pitched vocal melodies, it's a track you can easily get lost in.
Diversity spans the record: 'Spinning' is much calmer tune that has 'woohoos' and the subtle catchiness of a We The Kings or Maroon 5 track; 'Pâquerette (Without Me)' wishes an old love well with mellow acoustic vibes and 'Icarus' is a far grungier and more aggressive song that bares a resemblance to something by You Me At Six – it's got heavy guitars and screamy vocals and adds a new depth to the record.
After only a couple of listens, it feels just like returning to an old favourite that has been in my collection for years!
Even in its lower moments, this is an album that feels overall, positive and like a band that's been revitalised. The tracks each sound unique and interesting in their own ways; some outright pop punk anthems, other mellow, heartfelt ballads and even a couple of slightly more experimental numbers…yet it all still comes together as a cohesive record. Love And Loathing is just that – a record of two halves, covering the excitement of new relationships and hatred of old ones.
It is a tight, well-produced album that, despite some recent, tumultuous events, feels like a band now set for even bigger things! Could this be the next All Time Low or 5 Seconds Of Summer? If you're a pop punk fan, you will love every second of this record!

#Review: Milestones – Red Lights
01/03/2018 08/03/2018 Matt Wright - Muzik SpeaksLeave a comment
Milestones are a British pop punk band, hailing from Manchester. The quartet, fronted by singer Matt Clarke, have worked with producer, Phil Gornell (Bring Me The Horizon and All Time Low) to produce their debut album, Red Lights; their first full-length record with Fearless Records. Here's what we have to say about it…
Milestones are certainly making a mark on the pop punk scene with this strong, punchy debut…but are they bringing anything new to the table? Not really, but nevertheless it works!
The album is quite formulaic with its use of 'Woah ohs', 'Na na nas' and other gang vocals, amongst a whole host of stop pushes, grungy guitars, semi-cliché lyrics about being against the world and such like, and to top it all off, are some straight-up, damn-catchy choruses.
It's quite easy to make comparisons with bands like All Time Low, We The Kings and to some extent You Me At Six, but most notably, The Friday Night Boys, due to their pop punk precision and following of the modern tendency to over-produce these types of songs. Furthermore, being a British pop punk outfit, they've followed in the footsteps of so many others, by adopting the faux-American accent and referencing places in the USA (probably due to the amount of time the band have spent touring over there), but this band will still undoubtedly have made a name for themselves with this actually, pretty great album.
There are huge, sing-a-long choruses that would easily fill a stadium and Matt Clarke's epic vocals are delivered with massive power and heaps of conviction. It sure shows a band who know their sound and have the strength to produce a powerful album.
There are some mammoth highs, with powerhouse songs like 'BitterSweetHeart', 'Once Upon A Time', 'Paranoid' and 'Liar' and trademark, heartfelt "ballads", exposing their more vulnerable side, with tracks such as 'Against The World', 'Hold On' and 'Counting Cars', all of which further fits themselves in to the mould. With its minute-long intro, 'This Is My Life' provides a moment of calm amid the album, almost splitting it into two parts, before kicking into the main song and 'Eighteen' is just a bit of fun, though lyrically lacking in some ways, whilst 'Forever Or Never' is a big track, bringing the album to a good conclusion.
Whilst it might sounds like I'm slating this record, I'm not trying to; I'm merely pointing out the current trends in the pop punk genre, but I actually thoroughly enjoyed it and have had it on repeat since receiving it. There are huge, sing-a-long choruses that would easily fill a stadium and Matt Clarke's epic vocals are delivered with massive power and heaps of conviction; he sings 'Now I'm stuck in this fucking rut', almost spitting out 'fuck' like no one I've ever heard. Overall, there are some stunning moments on this album (the harmonies in the middle 8 of 'BitterSweetHeart' being one of my favourite) and though it may not blaze trails within the genre or lead to world domination of the market, it sure shows a band who know their sound and have the strength to produce a powerful album.

#Review: ROAM – Great Heights & Nosedives
ROAM are a British pop punk band from Eastbourne, consisting of members Alex Costello (vocals), Alex Adam (lead guitar and backing vocals), Matt Roskilly (bass), Sam Veness (rhythm guitar) and Miles Gill (drums). The band formed in 2012 and since then have performed on the Warped Tour '16, signed to Hopeless Records and have now just released their second album, Great Heights & Nosedives.
The band's new record opens with the hard-hitting track, 'Alive', and doesn't really let up from its high-energy, bounce-inducing pop punk for the majority of the album. It is undoubtedly a good effort from the band and a strong follow-up to 2016's debut, Backbone, however it's not really taking any great strides to revolutionise the already saturated world of pop punk.
Sadly, 'Curtain Call' feels a little like it's trying too hard to be profound but slightly missing the mark, whilst 'Home' is quite a letdown – it really doesn't finish the album in as strong a way as it started, with just a quick fade out at the end, making it feel like the band weren't sure quite how to finish the track – I really expected some long and explosive grande finale.
This is an album which is undoubtedly going to sit well within a hardcore, pop punk lover's collection.
Don't get me wrong, there are some really great moments on the album too, such as the banger that is 'Alive', thundering guitars and mosh-inducing rhythm of 'Left For Dead', the grungy, fast-paced 'Open Water' and the varying tempos of the somewhat funky, 'The Rich Life Of A Poor Man', which overall, make it quite a thrilling record, however I still feel like it's nothing that hasn't been done before. I find myself reminiscing some of the earlier days of New Found Glory, All Time Low and We The Kings and at points even Four Year Strong.
The album was produced by Kyle Black (who's worked with the likes of State Champs, New Found Glory and Comeback Kid) in Los Angeles, California. This explains the authentic American sound to the record and might account for Alex Costello's pseudo-American accent throughout. Whilst this is synonymous with the genre, it'd be nice to hear an English-sounding pop punk band, just for a change.
This is an album which is undoubtedly going to sit well within a hardcore, pop punk lover's collection…and it should; it's a decent record. I just think that in order to really stand out from the masses of similar bands and achieve longevity in their career, they're going to have to really push the boundaries of the genre on their next album; consider the likes of Paramore, Fall Out Boy, Good Charlotte and All Time Low.

#ThrowbackThursday: We The Kings – 'Check Yes Juliet'
2017 marks the 10th anniversary of We The Kings' self-titled, debut album, from which 'Check Yes Juliet' is one of the most successful singles.
The song is everything you could want from a power pop/pop rock/pop punk track – punchy guitars, swirling synths, beltable vocals and an epically catchy chorus. The song undoubtedly exploded the band onto the pop rock scene and it's great that we are now celebrating their 10th anniversary with them. You can also catch them on their 10th Anniversary US tour now (BUY TICKETS HERE).
The music video is a take on William Shakespeare's classic tale, in which lead singer Travis plays Romeo, 'tossing rocks' at Juliet's window. Juliet's parents do not approve of her relationship with her "Romeo" and demand that she stay away from him. The video ends with Juliet sneaking out to see Travis perform at a house party.

#FeelGoodFriday: Andy Grammer – 'Honey, I'm Good.'
31/07/2015 23/07/2015 Matt Wright - Muzik Speaks1 Comment
Andy Grammer could just take over the world with this song…it's catchy as hell and my word does it have the feel-good vibe going on! It's sort of summery, happy and fun all rolled into one awesome (just over) 3 minute package!
The premise for the song is that he's turning someone down because he's got someone at home, so he's staying faithful. The video is quite sweet too; it's just lots of couples celebrating how long they've been together and messing around. It's got all the makings of a viral video…I'm thinking Nickelback's 'Rockstar'!
Andy Grammer is also signed to S-Curve Records who have worked with the likes of Tom Jones, Joss Stone and We The Kings.
Is this song as feel-good as you'd like for this Friday? Have you got any similar songs you could share with us? Please comment below.
You can download 'Honey, I'm Good' from iTunes now – https://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/honey-im-good/id1014516901?i=1014516965

Tableau And Accenture Displaying Natural Language Generation At Tableau 2018
David A. Teich
B2B technology analyst, marketer, and consultant
Fotolia - Sergey Tarasov
Many of the companies I've talked with this year are involved in Natural Language, both in processing (NLP) and generation (NLG). The former is the easier problem (not to imply it is easy), as search engines such as Google have been moving towards that solution for a few years. Tableau 2018 is happening this week in New Orleans. Tableau is one of the companies moving towards inclusion of both NLP and NLG, and the first day of the conference held a couple of sessions that discussed NLP moves.
The first discussion was part of the keynote and discussed Ask Data, the NLP text query method being introduced next year and the second was a presentation by Accenture of a prototype for NLP voice linking to Tableau.
Ask Data – Natural Language Text
On Tuesday, Adam Selipsky, CEO, hosted the standard keynote. Towards the end of the presentation, a demonstration was provided for Tableau Ask Data, the new natural language query language interface for end users. The interface translates mostly natural language text, identifying keywords and linking them through metadata to appropriate queries and results.
One of the other machine learning (ML) components of Tableau that is being leveraged, without an obvious product name but just as a normal part of the process, is in the displaying of results. As with many visualization and reporting tools, Tableau is moving into a level of intelligence in providing automatic decisions about visualization choices. Only a few years ago, analysts would have to set the initial options for visualizations, such as choosing a bar graph, pie chart, etc. As the visualization options became more complex, business users and analysts alike must figure out complex choices, slowing down the flow of information. Today's products are beginning to use intelligence to understand the information being returned and suggest the appropriate initial visualization. Users can always change, but that decision simplifies and speeds the initial flow of information. Tableau's linking NLP and ML for query/display is a good and needed advancement.
The Ask Data feature is schedules for release in version 2019.1. The company changed naming conventions for releases to be year and point release within year, so that is due out sometime in early 2019. While no date has been announced, the Beta was made available this week and is downloadable by any customer who is interested in the new features, including Ask Data.
Accenture Linking Alexa To Tableau For NLP Voice
A very interesting session was also held on Tuesday, to standing room only. Axel Goris and Kristian Di Gaetano, members of the Visual Intelligence and Analytics Practice, Accenture, gave a nice example of the next step in NLP – voice.
Using open source APIs, as well as a combination of R and Python scripts. A small team created a prototype linking Amazon Alexa and Tableau (2018.2, if I remember correctly). The demo shown was an excellent one where they gave instructions to Alexa on a smart phone and the desktop Tableau interface showed the results of the queries.
While clearly a prototype, the example showed why Accenture predicts that 50% of all searches in 2020 will be by voice. That prediction is a little grandiose, but it's probably off by only 2-3 years.
After the session, I asked Kristian if the demo was by a small, independent, team or if Accenture sees the need to move forward on this. The response was a good indication that the firm is moving towards the later. He said there is a 30-person team, already expanding, centered on the Detroit office, that is looking at how to formalize the work and help clients begin to use NLP voice within business practices.

You are here: Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics About the department History
50th Anniversary 2018
Seal until 2011
The department was established on 5 June 1968 under the name of the Department of Molecular Biology. The department has changed its name several times (Institute for Molecular Biology and Plant Physiology, Department of of Molecular and Structural Biology, Department of Molecular Biology) in connection with mergers with other sections and departments.
On 1 July 2011, the Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics (MBG) was created by merging the Department of Molecular Biology (excluding the research groups within Lipid Biochemistry and Engineering) and the research groups within Molecular Genetics and Biotechnology, Molecular Genetics and System Biology, Quantitative Genetics and Biostatistics from the Department of Genetics and Biotechnology localised at Foulum (by Viborg) and Flakkebjerg (by Slagelse).
The department's activities are currently spread over six different locations (Research Centre Foulum, Research Centre Flakkebjerg and in five different buildings in Aarhus - the "Biokæden" (Campus), at Biomedicine (Campus), the Science Park and the iNANO house at Gustav Wieds Vej), but in 2022, the whole department (except for the groups in Flakkebjerg and at iNANO) will move to a building complex at the municipal hospital ("Kommunehospitalet") as all the activities of the hospital have been moved to the new hospital in Skejby.

ENGLISH IN MONGOLIA.
February 15, 2005 by languagehat 16 Comments
A story by James Brooke (originally in the New York Times, but linked here from the International Herald Tribune website) discusses the increasing prominence of English in Mongolia, until recently under the sway of Russia and its language:
"We are looking at Singapore as a model," Tsakhia Elbegdorj, Mongolia's prime minister, said in an interview, his own American English honed at graduate school at Harvard University. "We see English not only as a way of communicating, but as a way of opening windows on the wider world."
Camel herders may not yet refer to each other as "dude," but Mongolia, thousands of kilometers from the nearest English-speaking nation, is a reflection of the steady march of English as a world language…
The rush toward English in Mongolia has not been without its bumps. After taking office after the elections here in June, Elbegdorj shocked Mongolians by announcing that it would become a bilingual nation, with English as the second language.
For Mongolians still debating whether to jettison the Cyrillic alphabet imposed by Stalin in 1941, this was too much, too fast.
Later, on his bilingual English-Mongolian Web site, the prime minister fine-tuned his program, drawing up a national curriculum designed to make English replace Russian next September as the primary foreign language taught here.
Still, as fast as Elbegdorj wants the Mongolian government to proceed, the state is merely catching up with the private sector…
With schools easing the way, English is penetrating Ulan Bator through the electronic media: bilingual Mongolian Web sites, cellphones with bilingual text messaging, cable television packages with English language news and movie channels and radio repeaters that broadcast Voice of America and the British Broadcasting Corporation on FM frequencies. At Mongolian International University, all classes are in English. English is so popular that Mormon missionaries here offer free lessons as a way to attract potential converts.
Increased international tourism and a growing number of resident foreigners explain some moves, like the two English-language newspapers here and the growing numbers of bilingual store signs and restaurant menus. During the first eight months of 2004, international tourist arrivals were up 54 percent; visits by Americans doubled, a rise partly fueled by the movie "The Story of the Weeping Camel," a documentary set in Mongolia.
Foreign arrivals were up across the board, with the exception of Russians, who experienced a 9.5 percent drop. Their decrease reflects a wider decline here of Russian influence and the Russian language. Until the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russian was universally taught here and was required for admission to university in Mongolia.
"Russia is going downhill very fast," said Tom Dyer, a 28-year-old Australian who teaches at the Lotus Children's Center, the orphanage where Urantsetseg was describing the shark family.
Russia, leery of immigration from Asia, has imposed visa requirements on Mongolians. China does not. Today, it is hard to find a Mongolian under 40 who speaks better than broken Russian.
Within a decade, Mongolia is expected to convert the nation's written language from Cyrillic to the Roman alphabet.
For a trading people famed for straddling the east-west Silk Road, Mongolians have long been linguists, often learning multiple languages.
But for many of Mongolia's young people, English is viewed as hip and universal.
Stopped on a sidewalk on a snowy afternoon here, Amarsanaa Bazargarid, a 20-year-old management student at Mongolian Technical University, said optimistically: "I'd like English be our official second language. Mongolians would be comfortable in any country. Russian was our second official language, but it wasn't very useful."
With official encouragement, the U.S. Embassy, the British Embassy, and a private Swiss group have all opened their own English language reading rooms here in the last 18 months.
"If there is a shortcut to development it is English," Munh-Orgil Tsend, Mongolia's foreign minister, said in an interview, speaking American English, also honed at Harvard. "Parents understand that, kids understand that."
"We want to come up with solid, workable, financially backable plan to introduce English from early level all the way up to highest level," the minister added.
After attempting during the 1990s to retrain about half of Mongolia's 1,400 Russian language teachers to teach English, Mongolia now is embarking on a program to attract hundreds of qualified teachers from around the world to teach here. "I need 2,000 English teachers," said Puntsag Tsagaan, Mongolia's minister of education, culture and science. A graduate of a Soviet university, he laboriously explained in English that Mongolia hoped to attract English teachers, not only from Britain and North America, but from India, Singapore and Malaysia.
Tsagaan spins an optimistic vision of Mongolia's bilingual future. "If we combine our academic knowledge with the English language, we can do outsourcing here, just like Bangalore," he said.
I'm surprised that "it is hard to find a Mongolian under 40 who speaks better than broken Russian," but I guess it makes sense. Oh, and I highly recommend The Story of the Weeping Camel.
(Via The Argus, where Nathan adds "I can't tell you how happy I would be if English education in Inner Asia improved to the point that 'dude' replaced 'fuck you' as a friendly greeting.")
Michael Farris says
"We are looking at Singapore as a model," Tsakhia Elbegdorj"
He wants a Mongolian-English pidgin to become the everyday language for the majority of the population? What a strange thing to want for one's country? Or maybe he's talking about the fascism.
Tatyana says
I'm struck, Michael – is there a gaping hole in my world picture? I wasn't aware Singapore is a fascist country. Or for you a country willingly cooperating and friendly with US, like Singapore, is a fascist one automatically? Than so is Poland. Do you list Poland as fascist country, too?
I'm lost.
Brennus says
I read the interesting article on English in Mongolia in The New York Times, myself, this morning. However, I must say that even in this age of modern satellite technology, I think it's hard to escape geography. Despite more Mongolians studying English, Russian and Chinese will continue to overshadow Mongolia the most just as English will in Latin America. In fact, I remember when Cuban students began learning Russian in the 1960's and when Castro sent large numbers of them to Moscow to study. Yet, today English is still the number one foreign language in that country.
Scott Martens says
Tatyana – Fascist is a bit far, but authoritarian, Victorian, and built atop some remarkably strict social controls is fairly close to true for Singapore, and I hope not so true of Poland.
As for English in Mongolia, Singapore is not a likely model. Singapore has several major ethnic groups, and its Chinese majority is divided by a number of different dialects. English as the language of the colonial administration was the only unifying language they had. Korea is much closer to Mongolia's actual conditions, and the state of English in Korea is not like the state of English in Singapore. But really, I suspect that Russian and Chinese are not going to start declining in importance in Mongolia any time soon. I note that the rise of global English has not stopped Swiss children from studying German, French or Italian.
Tatyana: I was referring to Singaporean government's penchant for micro-managing its citizens lifestyles. They've loosened up slightly in recent years (I think chewing gum is no longer illegal, I don't know about facial hair or video games). Very strange place. I was maybe a little provocative with the word 'fascism' but there are few places I'd less rather live (from my viewpoint as an outsider)
Scott: English may have been the language of colonial power, it was by no means the only common language available to them. The area is right in the middle of the Malay lingua franca zone. Of course the raison d'etre(sp?) of Singapore was to not be Malay and so using that language was distasteful to the Chinese majority (one of the reasons Chinese have always been distasteful to Malay speakers). (yes, the above is a gross simplification, but I think the outlines are clear enough).
hat: I'd be skeptical about the claims for Russian declining. The IHT knows that English speakers like to read about their language's good fortunes and writes accordingly.
Similarly, the Hungarians I know are insistent that English is far more studied now than is German (traditional second language) but when my Hungarian isn't up to the tasks I set for it (by no means a rare occurence) I've noticed that Hungarians are more likely to try German instead of English (esp. outside of Budapest, but in Budapest too outside the highdensity tourist areas).
I'd say it makes sense for Mongolia to add English to the foreign language mix, but it's just not suited for the goals of it's addlepated prime minister. (maybe his grasp of other issues is more realistic than his grasp of language policy).
I'm very sceptical about the supposed impending romanization of Mongolian. I once read that plans for re-introducing the traditional mongolian alphabet stalled because people strongly preferred the current cyrillic orthography (though it's far from ideal). I have seen some short messages in ASCII though and interestingly, they seem to use v as the vowel [y].
Toby says
As an ESL teacher who has worked with adult students from around the world, I have had only a handful of Mongolians. The country is poor, far away and probably had restricted travel. It was also a Soviet client state. (I had to use my intermediate Russian skills to communicate with the beginning level ESL students I had from Mongolia.) More and more of them are coming here, at least to the big city where I live and work. In addition, there are diplomatic relations and probably a trade mission.
In style, there is something Soviet in their behavior, their handwriting, their manners. In a class with ethnic Kazhak and Mongolians, I'd get them confused.
Putting an emphasis on English is an excellent idea, not only because I'm American and an English teacher. Remember the word "vehicular load"? Well English's got it big time.
C. Callosum says
I don't wish to embroil myself in a political dispute here (I am a Singapore citizen) so I shall restrict myself to commenting on the more language-related aspects of this post.
While it's true that many Singaporeans speak a hodge-podge of English, Malay, the Chinese dialects (plus a bit of Tamil), this is one of the basilectal forms of "Singlish". Many Singaporeans, especially among those born post-independence, wouldn't have much of a problem communicating if you plucked them out of Singapore and deposited them in any of the major English-speaking cities in the world. The accent would be different, there may be some grammatical mistakes, but it's passable. In fact, many people (though not a majority) speak utterly grammatical English, with few mistakes – no more than you would hear from the average American or Briton. In this sense, the government has succeeded in its aim of building up a corps of people who can go to the West and do business with native English speakers, with no communication barriers other than the usual cultural ones. In fact, they succeeded so well that the standard of Chinese is declining. (The newspapers and Parliament have been going on about it for months, discussing Chinese language teaching reform.)
As for the comment on Malay, when Singapore became independent the government went out of their way to give Malay a privileged place. Malay is our national language, the National Anthem is in Malay, and initially all schoolchildren, including Chinese ones, were expected to learn Malay, though that requirement has since been phased out. The decision to make English the language that official correspondence and lessons were carried out in was purely pragmatic, in my point of view. And everyone knows the legendary pragmatism of the Singapore government.
Thanks for the comment — it's always nice to hear from someone who actually knows what they're talking about!
Where I work (in an inner city mostly black school teaching ESL to Spanish-speaking immigrant children), we have a new staff member. He's from Singapore, of Indian ethnicity. I asked him point-blank, hoping he wouldn't be offended, if Singapore was fascist. He said not at all, though there are certainly authoritarian features to the society. Previously, he was commenting on its unusual prosperity, high standard of living and education.
dungbeattle says
Many of the 'well off' Mongolians have come to La La Land to brush up on the American Version, so that they then can fix the internet and fix japanese cars and all the mod cons. But the Malay connection maybe to de-emphasize the Hollywood and be given a useful ballance. Their economy has faced bad weather related connections, and they be next to answer your Pharmaceutical bill or phone bill problems in lieu of those in Madras etc.
ariunaa says
How are you everyone! I wanna study English more.
Cyber Critic says
Isn't it sad….the rest of the world want's to learn English in order to do business with America, and yet here in America it is considered totally acceptable if you only speak Spanish, and have no intention of ever learning English. In fact the use of Spanish only is encouraged by the US goverment as ALL goverment forms, including those for citizenship, are available in Spanish.
Anybody have any clue why English has not been made the Offical language of the US…?
Critico Cibernetico;
Escribiria a usted en ingles, pero soy norteamericano y mi govierno no me permite. Que lastima.

The layers of history housed in Camp Salmen Nature Park begin in the late 1700s. The property was originally awarded as land grants by Spanish governor Estevan Miro in 1785 and 1787. It is thought to be the home to one of the oldest trading posts in the Bayou Liberty Region and in Louisiana, built in the early 1800s by Joseph Laurent, a lake trader. Alongside the Trading Post (now Salmen Lodge), Camp Salmen offered a major ferry across the bayou which operated from the early 1800s into the early 1900s. In 1901 the property was acquired by the Salmen Brick and Lumber Company. Salmen Brick conducted timbering operations for many years on the site until the property was donated to the Boy Scouts of America in 1924, which used the property as a regional camp reservation for the Greater New Orleans area.
On March 28, 1901, the Salmen Brick & Lumber Co. bought the Breedlove Tract, which included the old trading post building and 376 acres of property and so ended the building's nearly century-long use as a trading post. Twenty-three years later, in 1924, the Salmen Brick and Lumber Co. donated the building and about 73 acres of the old Breedlove Tract to the Boy Scouts for their use as a campsite. A later land donation brought the actual Salmen bequest to 106 acres. The scouts nicknamed the building Salmen Lodge in honor of Fritz Salmen, an ardent supporter of the scouts and the patriarch of the Salmen Brick and Lumber Company.
In 2006, the historical significance of the Salmen Lodge was affirmed when the lodge was added to the National Register of historic places. The 200-year-old building is awaiting restoration and when complete will be restored to its original trading post appearance. There is also discussion to add a small museum in the future. This remnant of the early history of the Bayou Liberty region will become a center for visitors, including school children, to learn about the unique architecture of the building, its years as a trading post, and the significant role the Bayou Liberty region area played in supplying timber, tar and pitch, bricks, produce, and livestock to the growing city of New Orleans across Lake Pontchartrain.

An Imam of a Masjid can be replaced, but a governmental leader cannot be overthrown as long as he is Muslim. In both cases, sincere advice based on Quran and Sunnah (not feelings) should be given to the Imam or Sultan. An Imam who is sexually immoral or otherwise a proven fasiq, and therefore does not qualify to be an Imam or ruler over the people. Facts are not established against a person until that person is allowed to defend themselves against all accusations. A person is truly considered innocent until proven guilty in Islam.

I think there's a hadith or so where Rasool Allah saw may have said. "A nation does not get a corrupted leader until they are corrupted themselves." If you know it, could you please forward that to my email?
Today we complain about the oppression of our leaders, whereas these leaders have been appointed over us due to our transgressions. The only salvation from them is through tawbah and perfect obedience to Allah's commands.

Nakama is a staple of the Pittsburgh sushi/fancy drink community. John K. Means, Jr. describes the bar as, "that place where really trashy Pittsburgh women wearing a ton of makeup attempt to meet sleazy fifty-something men." The food is generally good, the crowd is always jumping and the atmosphere is loud and boisterous. This was the second happy hour where we ran into mayor Luke Ravenstall. I think the mayor is secretly following our Facebook group and he is too embarrassed to join - we must be very sheik and intimidating.
Nakama has a fairly good happy hour special, all appetizers are half off. Pictured above is the Mongolian beef. This was the second time I've had the Mongolian beef in less than two weeks, it was very good. The beef was tender and flavorful and not overly salty.
These are the chicken lettuce wraps I sampled following my beef. They were just awful. I had someone next to me give them a taste to make sure I wasn't crazy. They confirmed my suspicions that the chicken tasted like kitty litter. By way of further reinforcement, another happy hour goer also ordered this dish and took one bite before declaring that she thought she was going to be sick. I've heard that this dish is generally pretty good, perhaps Nakama just dropped the ball due to the large Thursday crowd.
The food at Nakama is usually quite palatable. I've always enjoyed the sushi and every dish I've ever had other than the chicken lettuce wraps. It is easy to notice that most patrons aren't in attendance for the cuisine. Nakama is really a see-and-be-seen kind of place. The seating along the front window allows diners to show-off their elite status to other Pittsburghers. Following my lackluster meal, Gary the dentist introduced me to a girl with the most electric fake tan I had ever seen. One of my friends had no means to describe her other than, "she looks like Simba from the Lion King."

Agouran Of The Hour: Faith Lewis
Faith Lewis grew up in Agoura Hills and is currently about to enter Yale Law School, where she will focus on environmental law and environmental justice.
What was it like growing up in Agoura Hills?
I was actually born in New York, and then we moved to California. My experience started in elementary school – I went to Yerba Buena. I had a good time there. I was there from 1stto 4thgrade. I remember doing Girl Scouts – it was a lovely time. After California after fourth grade I moved to Australia, and I was there for six years, and I returned to Agoura Hills for tenth grade, and then I moved again to England, and I finished 11thand 12thgrade, but yeah it was lovely. I benefitted from an environment that told me and showed me that I could do or be anything and anyone that I wanted to be.
Why did you move around so much?
It was my dad's job. We moved to California while he was working for Disney, and we moved to Australia when he was working for Warner Brothers, and he's worked for Warner Brothers ever since.
What was it like moving back after so many years abroad?
I was in Australia for 6 years, and I came to the U.S. for 10thgrade. And it was nice coming back to Agoura because we often came back for Christmas – we saw my family and my grandma and my auntie. So when I moved it had been the first time that I experienced explicit racism, which was a little jarring. I felt like when I was in Australia, it was more like, there was ignorance surrounding race relations, but things weren't malicious. But when I returned back to the U.S. at Agoura High, that was the first time I was called a variant of the N-word, and never before in my life had that ever happened to me, so it was shocking.
But you also said it was a loving and empowering place.
Yes, that was specifically when I was younger, and I think that a large part of that was because of my family. I felt very uplifted, but I think that in 10thgrade it was lovely because there were a lot of different activities that I could choose in high school. I was able to do the dance program, and before I was planning on leaving, I was gonna be the commissioner of cultural awareness, and so there were a lot of awesome opportunities, but some of the aspects around race were jarring to me, because I hadn't experienced them before.
Were you the only person of color in your grade?
There were a few other Black students in my class, but just not that many.
Do you know why your parents chose Agoura Hills?
We chose Agoura in large part because of the school system – Yerba Buena, for example, just has a lot of resources. It's in an area where there's a lot of greenery, and there's a lot of parks to play in. Those are some of my favorite parts of living in Agoura – I like that things are nearby, and there's entertainment and necessities that are all here.
Are you living here now?
Yes, I'm here. I just graduated from American University in Washington, D.C., so I was there for four years, so I'm back here, and I'll be here until I go to law school, so I'll be moving to Connecticut either in January or later, depending on COVID.
Do you know what exactly the plans for next year are?
Yale is doing a hybrid system where part of your classes can be in person, part of them can be online. In particular, it'd be the small groups – it's kind of like your home base. Those are some of the classes that can be in person, and the rest would be online, but you can make a decision not to go, so that's what I'll be doing definitely for the fall semester. I think that it's very possible that Yale will do a good job, but I'd rather stay safe in Agoura Hills.
At Yale you'll be studying environmental law. How did you get interested in that field?
I was in the honors program at American University, and so what that means is we have to do a certain number of courses for the first two years. So the first semester, the course list is climate change, politics, and public policy. It was wonderful, and it really got me interested in climate change, and all the problems with climate change, and kind of started me in looking how all the different things interact, like capitalism, public policy, but I didn't really see a focus on marginalized individuals at that point. But the following semester, I had an advanced writing course, and that's where I was introduced to environmental justice, and I was like, oh, this is what I want to do for the rest of my life. I hit the ground running: I changed my majors to environmental studies and economics, minoring in international studies, and I had the opportunity to later work as a Student Sustainability Educator in the office of sustainability, and worked for justice at the Sierra Club. I had a lovely time, and hope to continue in law school.
What is environmental justice?
Environmental justice is understanding that people of color and low-income peoples are disproportionately affected by environmental degradation. So that means that people of color, and people in other marginalized groups are disproportionately negatively affected by environmental bads, and disproportionately do not benefit from environmental goods. For example, those that might come from different governmental agreements, so it's a really important topic, especially now.
What did you do at the Sierra Club and Earthjustice?
I first started out looking at the National Environmental Policy Act – I came on board at a time when they were still able to give public comment for this bedrock environmental law that was created 18 years ago, had bipartisan support, but it's being really threatened by this administration. There are a number of rollbacks that will have really negative repercussions for environmental justice communities. So in my public comment I discussed the necropolitical nature of the rule, and necropolitics is trying to figure out who lives and who dies in their borders, and essentially it's very clear that who the government is supporting with that action. I've also been looking at utility disconnection suspension – one of the really great things that has been happening is utility companies are suspending disconnections for nonpayment because of the economic crisis, and that's a result of governmental failure, but a lot of utilities are lifting that suspension and starting to disconnect people again.
Do you have a sense of what you want to do after you graduate?
For me I think that I want to focus on the areas of civil rights and liberties, environmental, human rights, racial and ethnic justice, culture rights, environmental justice. Those are the issue areas I'd like to focus on, and I think that I'm very interested in grassroots work, administrative advocacy, lobbying, litigation, policy, those different things. But I really enjoy the work done at Sierra Club, Earthjustice, the Center for Race, Poverty, and Environment, so I see myself working on fighting for environmental justice, and all that comes with it.
Favorite music/musician: John Legend, Craig David, Ne-Yo – nowadays I'm very into Vulfpeck, Tom Misch, Raveena, Vince Guaraldi – he does the "Charlie Brown" music that I listen to when I'm sad
Favorite books: Angela Davis, "Mrs. Biddlebox," which is just lovely – it's about a woman who rolls over on the wrong side of her bunk and makes the best of a bad day in a really fantastical way, which is just lovely
Favorite TV shows: "Bob's Burgers", "Everybody Hates Chris," and "Hunter x Hunter"
Favorite travel destination: Greece
Somewhere you'd like to go next: Japan – I took Japanese for five years, and I've always been super-interested, and also I think it's important to look at environmental justice concerns all over the world, so I'd like to learn about Minamata Disease, which was a result of people ingesting methylmercury for three decades
Favorite person: I'm gonna say my Grandma Jackson. She is so cool. She's done so much. She raised my mom and her sister by herself, while going to school, getting her degree, working, got her master's, worked in New York City. It's amazing, even now she goes out when there's nobody to hold signs. She's done it all before.
Favorite food: Pad see ew – it's a little bit like pad thai, but with bigger noodles.
Favorite drink: Ginger Ale
Favorite Agoura Hills spot: Regency Agoura Hills Stadium. I love going to movies with my firneds.

Els feocromocitomes són neoplàsies rares derivades de cèl·lules cromafins de la medul·la suprarenal. Produeixen, emmagatzemen, metabolitzen i solen alliberar catecolamines, però no sempre. Els paragangliomes extra-suprarrenals (sovint descrits com a feocromocitomes extra-suprarrenals) estan estretament relacionats, encara que menys freqüents, amb els tumors originats en els ganglis del sistema nerviós simpàtic i s'anomenen en funció del lloc anatòmic primari d'origen. Molts apareixen a la cavitat abdominal (85%), però també s'originen al tòrax (12%) i a cap i coll (3%). Rarament són multifocals. El terme prové del grec phaios (fosc), croma (color), kitos (cèl·lula) i -oma (tumor).

Further to my previous post on Alma Nungarrayi Granite's paintings from Warlukurlangu Artists at my home town of Yuendumu I found a fascinating set of links between Aboriginal art, the sky and the objects we find there and modern science.
In many ways these links are very similar to the kind of connections that I find in the work that I'm doing on the connections between Aboriginal knowledge and birds – but in the case of Aboriginal astronomical knowledge there seems to be a far more active interest and real curiosity on the part of some astronomers in the Aboriginal equivalent to their work than there is with their counterparts in the the mainstream ornithological scientific community.
And I didn't know it before I had a close look at this exhibition but 2009 is the International Year of Astronomy.


A public exhibition explaining the full impact of gas mains replacement works, due to start next year, will be held.
The National Grid is inviting people to find out more about the work on King's Road in Chelsea, which is due to begin in February.
Aging metallic gas mains will be replaced with tough new durable pipes, but work will result in major road works on the famous road.
For the first phase of work, which will last approximately eight months, King's Road will be made into a one-way road eastbound, between Stanley Bridge and Gunter Grove.
The public exhibitions will give the local community the chance to meet the project team, see detailed plans and ask questions.
They take place at Chelsea Old Town Hall, King's Road, SW3 5EE, on October 7 between 12pm and 8pm, and at the Vialli Suite, Chelsea Football Club, Stamford Bridge, Fulham Road, SW6 1HS, on October 15 between 12pm and 8pm.
He added: "All shops and businesses will remain open for business as usual. By carefully planning the project and using innovative technology we hope to ensure our work has as little impact as possible on residents and road users.
For more information on the events call 0800 389 8261 or email nationalgrid@londongasmains.co.uk.
