Famous Roulette Exploits
Roulette has a long history of famous players and famous exploits. For most players, the game of roulette typically offers only modest returns, but players can reap significant rewards by making risky bets and getting very lucky on a few numbers. The payouts on straight bets, for example, are 35 to 1. For some players, the odds just worked out in their favour and the money poured in. Here are a few of the most well-known stories describing their huge wins.
In 1873, Joseph Jagger famously won over £65,000 at the Monte Carlo casino. Jagger, who came to be known as "the man who broke the bank at Monte Carlo," studied the outcomes on the roulette wheels at the casino. He had a suspicion that not every roulette wheel could be mechanically perfect. By tracking the results, he discovered that one wheel frequently produced a set of nine numbers. Jagger then used this information to win huge sums of money at the casino. His exploits are equal to over £3million today.
Some gamblers risk everything for a chance to win. In 2004, a British man sold everything he had to bet on a game of roulette. Ashley Revell sold all his belongings and amassed a sum of £135,300. He took that money and bet it all on a single game of roulette in Las Vegas. Revell bet on red, and the wager paid off. He won the bet and doubled his money to the tune of £270,600. Although he could have pressed his luck, Revell knew when to stop. He gave the dealer a $600 tip and left the casino immediately.
Philip Green, a British businessman, won huge sums of money playing at London's Les Ambassadeurs in Mayfair. In a single night, he won more than £3,000,000 by making only a few bets. Green is known to be a very risky gambler. His strategy was to use a combination of outside bets and straight bets on particular numbers.
Famous roulette bets also extend to the movie screen and other fictional accounts. Roulette wins have figured in the classic 1942 film Casablanca. In one scene, Rick helps a couple to win money on his rigged roulette wheel by telling them which number to bet. On the first spin, they bet 22 as he suggests. Again, Rick tells the man to bet 22. When they win again, he informs them that it is best to walk away with their money.
In popular culture, baccarat is known as the favourite game of James Bond. However, Sean Connery is also known to have won massively in a game of roulette. In 1963, Connery bet on the number 17 five times. Although he lost the first two bets, he won the third bet and placed his bet on the number 17 again. Incredibly, the roulette wheel landed on 17 again. Connery risked his money again, putting his cash on 17. Again, the wheel landed on 17, and Connery won a total of £27,000.

Here, for your viewing (and possibly crocheting) pleasure, is my collection of vest patterns. You'll find a variety of styles and lengths with one thing in common. They are all vintage designs. Many of the patterns are Mail Order designs. In this section, you'll also find a small scattering of bolero's, pullover vests or sleeveless jackets as these patterns frequently overlap.


The ballistic missile fired by Yemeni rebels that targeted the Saudi Arabia capital was from Iran and bore "Iranian markings," a top US Air Force official in the Middle East has said.
Lieutenant General Jeffrey L Harrigian, who oversees the Air Forces Central Command in Qatar, made the comments at a news conference in Dubai.
Mr Harrigian said authorities were investigating how the missile was smuggled into Yemen amid a Saudi-led coalition controlling the country's airspace, ports, and borders.
More detail was not given, though the ministry also mentioned it found similar evidence after a 22 July missile launch however a rebel spokesperson told Al Jazeera that it was a Burkan 2-H missile – a Scud-type missile with a range of more than 800km.

Why It's OK to be Upset over Notre-Dame
My mother loves Paris. It's one of her absolute favorite cities in the world, and whenever you mention Paris, she gets a wistful look in her eye. When my niece, Sally, was a toddler, my mom used to fantasize about bringing her to Paris when she was older. And finally, as Sally turns 15, that plan--so long in dreaming--is in the works.
So when I saw the news that Notre-Dame was burning up, I immediately grabbed my phone to text my mom. She beat me to it: Notre Dame Paris is on fire.
We commiserated by text all that day, and collectively sighed in relief when it became clear that nobody had lost their lives and that most of the art--and the windows--had been saved.
There was something compelling about this event even for me, a staunch non-Catholic (non-any religion at all, actually). Standing with the people of Paris as they watched one of the grandest and most loved monuments in the city dance in the flames and smoke--It was like standing vigil as a loved one takes their final breath. It felt respectful to watch the drama play out, no matter what happened in the end.
As an active social media user, I'm familiar with the normal pattern of social media responses to news like this: first there's an outpouring of surprise, then of support, then of grief…and then the naysaying creeps in. The self-righteous posts about how "it's just a building, and meanwhile there are kids in cages" and "Nobody cared when black churches in the US south were being burned down!!"
When two French billionaires got into a pissing contest about who will provide the most funding to rebuild, the naysayers erupted in renewed fury--not unlike the way a fire acts, if you think about it--"If these rich guys can afford to fund reconstruction of an old church, that just shows that they can afford to feed hungry countries!"
Now, let me just say that neither of these responses are wrong. Yes, it's troubling that the wealthy sit on their unearned money while others starve, and then open their pocketbooks for something sentimental but ultimately merely an object. It's a travesty, and the wealthy should be ashamed of their selfishness.
And it's also true that the media tends to ignore events happening in black communities, and that we're so numb at this point that most of us go through our days not giving much thought to the tragedy of the current US administration's (I won't give the purveyors of these evil acts any attention by using their names) wanton kidnapping and abuse of migrant children.
I absolutely agree.
But we can feel grief over Notre-Dame--even as we also feel relief that the news wasn't worse--and also feel rage, grief, and despair over everything else that seems to be collapsing in the world.
The collapse of accountability, decency, empathy, critical thinking. The collapse of common sense, of personal responsibility, of respect. The potential collapse of democracy under the weight of narcissism, greed, and corruption. The collapse of communities under water and wind from rampant and unchecked climate change.
Of course, these are all catastrophic.
As the firefighters desperately fought the flames, my mom and some friends and I pondered the fact that--even given the rest of the terrible news of the day--the burning of Notre-Dame affected us more emotionally and deeply than other crises. Maybe because it's such a complicated symbol, where art, religion, culture, and history mingle: deep and often dark nuances of pain and struggle intertwining with soaring beauty and elegant craftsmanship.
Can't we stop, take a breath, and spend some time marveling at an old, grand building--and a symbol of an old, grand, battered but still thriving city? Can't we consider the value of ancient relics and art, even if we don't personally believe the Crown of Thorns was actually atop Jesus' head? Even if we think religion is bullshit? Can't we feel glad that three incredible, intricate stained-glass windows were saved?
Notre-Dame is not "just" a building. It's a physical representation of the soul of Paris; it's 800 years of history; it's countless tears, hymns, and cries of wonder.
And in a world where we slog through the mud of tragic news from the minute we open our eyes to the minute we close them, we're allowed to turn our attention to this near-tragedy. We're allowed to sadly admire the flames as they consume the spire, gasp in combined horror and awe as it topples, listen to Parisians singing in the streets as they watch their beloved cathedral glow red from the inside.
Social media is, obviously, a constant feedback loop of opinion--we must always provide our opinion because it makes us feel validated. And I'm no different. But I'm here to say that it's OK to be struck by what happened to Notre Dame. To feel sad about it. It doesn't mean we're ignoring the herds of other tragedies and crises bearing down on us. It just means we can appreciate what we almost lost.
What Is Joy?
Can life really be joyful, even when hard things happen? Maybe not on the surface, but below our pain and fear, below the judgment of ourselves and others, there's a kernel that's an inherent and unstoppable desire to live; to see what happens next. At JATHT, we'll explore life, love, joy, and sorrow and hopefully learn something in the process. Welcome!

2) I will be using the cluster for animation (art + computers) and may have to bend it and tinker with it...therefore it makes sense for me to know it inside out.
5) I have a bunch of old computers lying about which are not so old and run basic versions of linux fast.
All decent reasons to put together a cluster.
As a practical matter, 1 U high systems are quite tight inside, and tough to cool, because the fans can only be an inch or so high (maybe 40mm) and to move any amount of air, they have to spin fast. Fast small fan = low efficiency, lots of noise..
>What is a blade system?
Where there's a "card cage"  into which one slides cards (or "blades") which are a whole PC.  They all share a common power supply and they're denser because you don't have extra sheetmetal between PCs.
OTOH, denser means more heat in a small volume, which aggravates the cooling problem.
>I would be putting it in a room with air conditioning.
There's "air conditioning" and "AIR CONDITIONING".. Throw a few kilowatts worth of computers in a room, and you'll find out which one you have.
> Also again, what might be some upto date books on the subject and any experiences regarding the actual creation of the rack and the physical hardware.
Catalogs are your friend, as far as packaging goes.
>I am starting with 3 nodes to be expanded to n nodes....The 3 nodes will allow me to keep complexity down while learning and then i can expand to n nodes once i have it down to increase speed.
Good luck.. At 3 nodes, you can just throw the PCs under the table and hook em up with a ethernet switch.
But, if you find a pallet load of surplus PCs, and want to repackage them a bit more densely, then the cookie sheet approach is easy.

Infinite Jest [Ep]
by We Are The Fury
Ferociousness is cheap, but that doesn't mean it isn't fun, and "ferocious" is definitely the word that comes to mind as soon as you start listening to the debut EP from this Toledo quintet. It's not the death-obsessed, self-hating hardcore kind of ferocity, but more of a sex-obsessed, girls-and-scotch-loving variety -- the kind that might bring to mind an attention-deficit version of the Buzzcocks if you're over 35, or maybe a slightly more frenetic version of My Chemical Romance if you're a 20-something. Singer Jeremy Lublin somehow manages to sound simultaneously frantic and louche, and guitarist Chris Hatfield is a man of about 100 different guitar sounds, all of which he throws down on the floor together in piles about ten or 12 deep while Lublin staggers and gasps his way around them. Lublin's lyrics flirt tantalizingly with coherence, but the harder you try to figure out what he's saying the more you realize it isn't anything very interesting: "We are all the pawns while the king and queen push us along," "You want to talk about indecision?/Just take a look at all the Seminole lies," and so on. In terms of pure sound, though, these guys show real promise. ~ Rick Anderson, Rovi

British summers can be hot. If the weather does heat up, take these steps to stay comfortable and safe. Some might seem obvious but all will help improve your training and make sportive day a much happier experience.
You'll lose a greater volume of fluid through sweating in the hot weather, so drink up. "Staying well hydrated can reduce the sense of effort during exercise as dehydration of more than one to two per cent of body mass will impair both physical and mental performance," says Professot Ron Maughan of Loughborough University. Work out your sweat rate by weighing yourself naked before and after a ride, and aim to drink one-and-a-half times the amount you lose over the course of the ride.
If you feel full up, pouring water over your head is a good way to lower your temperature on a hot day. The water acts like instant air conditioning as you're riding along, bringing your overall temperature down by a degree or two. Alternatively, tie a buff that's been soaked in cold water around your head for a similar effect.
A recent study by Cancer Research UK has found that the number of men dying from skin cancer has doubled over the past three decades. As a cyclist, you'll be spending more time in the sun than most people so make sure you minimize your risk. A high-factor sport-specific sun cream is ideal – it's designed not to wash off at the first sign of sweat. If you're riding for a long time, take some in your saddle pack or pocket and reapply when you take a break. And don't neglect areas like your ears and the backs of your hands that might be exposed despite gloves. Also, if your jersey has mesh panels, it's a good idea to smear it on under these too.
Along with looking good and delaying the onset of crow's feet, there are other more serious benefits to wearing sunglasses when you ride. The UK College of Optometrists claims that neglecting to protect your eyes from the sun's rays can result in permanent damage. "Sunlight can damage the retina and lens of the eye and we risk causing long-term damage to our eyesight, developing conditions such as cataracts and possibly age-related macular degeneration." Lighter colour eyes are even more susceptible. "If you have blue eyes, take even more care to wear glasses in the sun." Glasses also protect your eyes from wind, dust, flies and road debris as you're riding along.
Keep an eye on the pollen count, which is at the end of TV weather forecasts or can be found at www.metoffice.gov.uk, and, if possible, avoid long rides when levels are high.
Wear wraparound sunglasses to help to keep pollen out of your eyes.
Rub a little Vaseline inside your nose – pollen will stick to it instead of being inhaled.
Don't hang your cycling kit in the garden to dry – the pollen will infiltrate the fabric and trigger your allergies.
To reduce the risk of this occurring while on the bike avoid riding if you have a hangover or if you've recently suffered from diarrhoea or vomiting, all of which cause you to become dehydrated. Prevention is better than cure so make sure you drink plenty of water, preferably with electrolytes, but if symptoms do occur stop riding immediately, find a shady spot, remove excess clothing and drink plenty of fluids.

Scottish independence, like Brexit, depends on creating a villain as politics turns into militant smearing – Alastair Stewart
Nothing is so challenging as to "see oursels as ithers see us! It wad frae mony a blunder free us, An' foolish notion".
By Alastair Stewart
Tuesday, 22nd June 2021, 4:55 am
Nationalism, or patriotism, has as many heads as the mythical Hydra, seen being slain by Heracles in this picture from circa 1750 (Picture: Hulton Archive/Getty Images)
Between 2014 and 2019, I lived in the south of Spain. If I had those years again, I'd pick experiencing the Scottish independence and Brexit votes away from home every time.
Nothing quite brings out Scottishness than listening to drunk Englishmen proclaim our "wee country" is "having ideas beyond its station". Even the most devout of unionists choke on their café con leche with their back up at the mention of "sweaty Jocks".
Sign up to our Opinion newsletter
Paradoxically, nothing quite brings out a unifying assemblage of Britishness than Spaniards decrying Brexit as folly from a country with, ahem, "ideas above its station". It brings out the inner Flashman: "By Gad, damn their impudence and have another one for Lizzy. Chin chin."
Nationalism, patriotism, chauvinism – it has more heads than the Hydra and is twice as hard to kill – thrives with an opposition. It seldom ever prospers without a bad guy, a foil or an oppressive force (real or imagined). Human history is replete with adversaries that bring together implacable foes in a common cause. Winston Churchill needed a Hitler to unite Britain, the United States and the former USSR.
Independent Scotland would act as a 'bridge' between EU and UK, says former SNP ...
We see it every day at home; we just don't clock it as much. From our sports to our politics – it all works on the same principle of negativity. Seldom do like-minded people congeal to achieve a common cause without having something to go against. It is the oldest political trick in the book, and it's astonishing that so few call it out for what it is.
Or, more accurately, describe it for it is. 'Divisive' politics is a bad cliche. Gordon Brown took it as self-evident when he warned of 50-years of conflict between Scotland and England.
Neighbouring democratic countries only fight and compete for extended periods when their national consciousness creates the idea of an enemy. Sometimes it's justified. At other times, it's propaganda designed to enrage. Those flames are fanned in our politics, and that is a real obstacle to cooperation.
In fairness to the Americans, they created their entire political system around checks and balances – one institution against another, constantly aware that it would be the end result, anyway. 'Group mentality' is the bedrock of conflict.
Devolution was pursued in the naive belief that fracturing a unitary state would not lead to immovable divisions along party and national lines. There are no checks or balances, merely limits that are regularly pushed by both Westminster and Holyrood. And we yet lack a process akin to the Constitutional Court of Spain. Whenever the Scottish and UK governments 'go to court', this is taken as a political crime rather than a procedure towards a more perfect union.
Alan Moore's comic Watchmen made this point brilliantly. It took a faked space octopus killing millions to bring the USSR and USA back from the brink of Cold War annihilation. Only with some obscene, absurdist 'other' could humanity come in from the cold and unite.
For a country as supposedly outward-looking as Scotland, our politics is intensely inward-looking and fractured. Our foreign policy is one giant Potemkin village. How we want to be seen does not make it so. We no longer have the best health service, the best education system and certainly not the best political system in the world. But the myth survives because we're 'fighting' Westminster.
And living abroad provides that perspective. Rather than checks and balances, we have mudslinging of the highest ilk. The fractured 'other' is not inevitable, but created by party politics which can frame the 'other' as being a threat.
What was once 'politics' is now militant smearing. Boris Johnson's Tories are determined to be the last party standing. Their approach is destined to untie the United Kingdom, isolate us internationally and do whatever it takes to keep his party in power.
Consider the reaction against our own citizens during Brexit. Those Britons living abroad who dared to raise concerns about Brexit were treated as the symptom of the EU problem. 'Expats' was a slur. The total weight of the argument turned on its head: if you don't live here, you have no right to have a say. The 'us and them' argument took hold.
The Scottish referendum was no better. Scots abroad were denied a voice (despite the Yes campaign regularly showboating celebrities who had made their home overseas) because the powers-that-be were unwilling to include Scots living in other parts of the United Kingdom.
Identity politics comes in many forms these days but the common form of argument is vilification. There's a curious acceptance that the independence debate will be around as a fact of life until it is achieved.
Scotland is stuck in the Groundhog Day of 'independence is the way' and 'Brexit has doomed us'. There never seems to be any movement forward. Repeated 'othering' throughout the history of international relations is one reason behind the endless cycle of war and occasional peace.
Independence will answer nothing, as sure as Brexit has answered zip – there is always another bogeyman, another conflict, another villain who needs to be fought.
If we removed 'the other' from our debates, would the arguments for independence, Brexit, and everything else hold water? Or do they only thrive when people have a villain to throw stones at?

Like most Americans, you probably have a bank account, a mortgage, an auto loan and life insurance. You had to give a lot of sensitive, personal financial information to the bank or financial services company in order to obtain these things. Now imagine if that bank or loan company sent your information out to whomever they wanted to. Thanks to the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (GBLA), enacted by Congress to put safeguards on how financial services firms protect and share your personal financial data, you are protected.
At Paulson & Nace, PLLC, we take privacy protection seriously. If your bank, financial service or lending institution violated the GLBA – regardless of the impact the violation has had on your life – we fight to hold the company accountable for its actions. When you need a Washington, D.C. consumer protection attorney who does not back down in the face of a challenge, you want Paulson & Nace.
The safeguard rule – Financial services companies and insurance companies must secure personal information for their customers through the use of computer firewalls and encryption, and procedures for safely destroying personal information.
The financial privacy rule – These firms must inform you of their privacy policies and how they share your personal financial information (privacy disclosure).
Opting out – These firms must give customers the option to opt-out of sharing some of their personal financial information.
The GBLA is also tasked with preventing third parties from gaining access to your personal financial information through fraud, trickery, false statements, and fraudulent, lost or stolen documents.
When a financial institution violates the GBLA, there are severe civil and criminal penalties that may include fines and imprisonment. If you believe that your financial privacy rights were violated by your bank, credit card company or any other financial institution, it is time to contact Paulson & Nace in Washington, D.C. At our office a consumer privacy attorney reviews your case and helps you analyze your options moving forward. In the District of Columbia, it may be possible for individuals or non-profit special interest organizations to bring private rights of action for violations of GLBA through DC's Consumer Protection Act. If you have a case under the GBLA, our experienced trial attorneys have the skills and the resources necessary to represent to in court.
You have rights and protections afforded to you when someone disseminates or uses your financial information illegally. At Paulson & Nace, PLLC we help uphold those rights so you can take back control of your life. To schedule a consultation in our Washington, D.C. office, please call 202-930-0292 or fill out our contact form.

Q: bazel run *_deploy.jar fails with "cannot execute binary file" Given the following BUILD file
java_library(
  name='target_lib',
  srcs=['target.java',],
)

java_binary(
  name='target',
  runtime_deps=[':target_lib',],
  main_class='com.example.target',
)

I can perform a bazel run //path:target on a java_binary and it successfully executes my application; however when attempting to execute bazel run //path:target_deploy.jar it failes with "cannot execute binary file"
I'm attempting this on MacOS (if that matters)
Also if I manually attempt to do a java -jar bazel-bin/path/target_deploy.jar I find that the manifest doesn't specify a main_class.  Unsure if that's related.
Bazel version information:
$ bazel version
Build label: 0.26.1-homebrew
Build target: bazel-out/darwin-opt/bin/src/main/java/com/google/devtools/build/lib/bazel/BazelServer_deploy.jar
Build time: Thu Jun 6 18:36:29 2019 (1559846189)
Build timestamp: 1559846189
Build timestamp as int: 1559846189

A: This is working as intended. bazel run doesn't actually execute the deploy jar, but a stub script that sets up the runtime environment for the jar determined by the target's dependency graph. If you pass a file label (e.g. //x/y:deploy.jar) to bazel run, Bazel will attempt to execute it as a standalone binary without java -jar.

The title of this march was selected by a vote of radio listeners; it was premiered by the Goldman Band on Sousa's birthday, November 6, 1932. Goldman dedicated the cheerful "la-la and whistle" march to a friend, Mabel Rosenthal. At that time there was little to cheer about in the United States since the county was in the midst of its worst depression, with banking operations at a standstill and many people standing ins soup lines. The Goldman Band did its share by presenting concerts to help New Yorkers forge their troubles -- at least for a time.

Mumbai to witness the Heritage Sport and Historic Event of Polo The Turf Games Events & Entertainment at Mahalaxmi Race Course
Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], December 20: Mark your calendars as the city of Mumbai will be witnessing to the enthralling game of Polo at the Mahalaxami Race Course. The playoffs commence from the 19th December 2022 with the grand finale on the 24th December 2022.
This historic game that dates back to well over 1,000 years was once considered the sport of kings', as it certainly is the king of sports.
A game once only played by the erstwhile royalty, is now also played by the corporate tzars and affluent members of society.
Unfortunately the sport that originated in India, migrated the world over well over 500 years back and till date still hasn't found its roots back India.
Turf Games Events and Entertainment with the support of Incredible India and Maharashtra Tourism has been formed with a single vision – to change the paradigm of how polo is viewed in India.
A vision to bring the game of Polo to the people, for the people and by the people!
To turn back time when rich men had cars and poor men had horses, rather than rich men have horses and poor men have cars!!
The promoters, famed entrepreneurs Ms Sonam Gupta and Mr Saif Hyder along with Architect and Polo player Ar. Riyhad Kundanmal, thru their common passion have come together and proposed this cause to make a difference and grow the sport.
Speaking to Riyhad who has been a passionate polo player for 30 years & is also the Honorary Secretary and Polo Chairman of the Amateurs Riders Club.
"There's a huge furore and demand for Polo globally, where the sport is open for participation & is played by youngsters all the way up to professionals.
Our endeavor at Turf Games Events and Entertainment is to to create the same awareness and participation in India.
The sport which had lost its roots from India and has since been long forgotten even though its popularity is well encapsulated by countries worldwide.
Here at the premier horse riding club – Amateur Riders' Club in Mumbai we teach young members the basics of horse riding and thereafter they progress into polo or other equeatrian sports.
It's a body contact sport full of adrenaline, heart thumping action and intense moments that requires nerves of steel with anticipation and strategy."
Currently India with all its population has only 25 odd professional Polo players, and around 300 active players.
Sonam states "our mission is to introduce the youth of this nation to this heritage sport and revive this forgotten game, as well as place this sport of Polo back as India's rich cultural sport and ensure India is placed on the global platform of Polo, and a country with a Polo team to reckon with.
Turf Games Events and Entertainment proudly presents our very first Polo
Tournament "The Turf Games Christmas Cup"
Date: December 24th 2022 – Christmas Eve
Venue – Mahalaxmi Race Course

Joanot Martorell (Valencia, Spanyolország, 1413 körül – 1465) 15. századi valenciai lovag, író. Híres regénye, a valenciai nyelven írt Tirant lo Blanch (1490) tartotta fenn hírnevét.

Élete
Valencia városában született nemesi családban. Hat testvére volt, köztük Isabelle, aki 1439-ben Ausiàs March költő felesége lett és még ugyanabban az évben meghalt. A család anyagi helyzete egy idő után megromlott.

Joanot Martorell 1438-ban közel egy évig Londonban tartózkodott, ahol megnyerte VI. Henrik angol király szimpátiáját és megkapta a térdszalagrendet. Később, 1440 és 1442 között valószínűleg megfordult a V. Alfonz aragóniai király nápolyi udvarában, és másodszor is 1450 és 1458 között mint kamarás. Ottani olvasmányai és tapasztalatai is hozzájárulhattak műve megírásához.

Regénye
A Tirant lo Blanch (Tirant, a fehér) című regényt 1460-ban kezdte írni. Tirant lovag fiatalon megismerkedik az angliai udvarral, azután sereg élén a szaracénoktól fenyegetett Rodosz felmentésére, majd a törökök által ostromlott Konstantinápoly megsegítésére siet, ahol végül elnyeri a császár unokahúgának kezét. Tirant lovag hősi élete a Ramon Muntaner krónikájából ismert Roger de Flor itáliai hadvezért példázza, aki 1303-ban elfoglalta Konstantinápolyt. Az író Ramon Llull Llibre de l'orde de cavalleria (A lovagi rend könyve) című művéből is vett át motívumokat.

A könyv mégsem kimondottan lovagregény. Egy-két résztől eltekintve (pl. Arthur király epizódja) tartalmában, előadásában egyaránt valószerűségre törekszik és történeti érzéket árul el, nincsenek benne csodák vagy varázslatok. A lovagi ideálok mellett az egyéni bátorság és méltóság reneszánsz vonásai és a mindennapi élet valós részletei keverednek a történetben. A Don Quijote-regényben Cervantes is megemlékezett a könyvről, és éppen annak valószerűségét értékelte: "lovagjai esznek, isznak és ágyban halnak meg", jó a stílusa és "fölötte szórakoztató a tartalma".

Az író a regényt már nem tudta megjelentetni, talán teljesen be sem fejezte. Halálakor valenciai ismerőse, bizonyos Martí Joan de Galba kezében volt a kézirat, talán neki kellett befejeznie. Galba csak 1489-ben – tizenöt évvel a valenciai nyomtatás kezdete után – tett lépéseket a mű közzétételére, de a kész munkát már ő sem láthatta meg, mert 1490 elején meghalt. Az ősnyomtatvány a Valenciában letelepedett Nicolau Spindeler német nyomdász műhelyéből került ki 1490. november 20-án. 1511-ben jelent meg Diego de Gumiel nyomdásznál a kasztíliai fordítás – ezt a kiadást olvashatta annak idején Cervantes –, és olasz nyelven 1538-ban adták ki.

2006-ban Vicente Aranda spanyol rendező filmre vitte a történetet.

Q: innerHTML is not working with Angular ng-drag-drop I am trying to implement nested drag and drop functionality in angular project. For this I am using https://www.npmjs.com/package/ng-drag-drop.
HTML:

Row with Tow Columns

Add Element Container Here

Inside the 'layout-container' I want to drag and drop another HTML code. which is:

Column A - Add Element

Column B - Add Element

As you can notice, I want to enable second droppable div inside parent div. This works perfectly when I hardcoded the code. However, I want to fetch the code from database. So I tried using innerHTML, but its not detecting the ng-drag-drop scopes (droppable, [dropScope], etc).

.ts
inner_html: string = '';

// Fetched from database
layout: any = `

Column A - Add Element

Column B - Add Element

`;

innerElement: string = `<h1>Final Element</h1>`; // This is fetched from database

onLayoutDrop(){
 this.inner_html += this.layout;
}

.html

Row with Tow Columns

Add Element Container Here

A: Hey I hope you have the possibility to change your data that is fetched from the api. I really hope you get a proper model in JSON format and do not get some rigged HTML from your backend.
Because:

*

*The data persistence should not know how the data is presented

*HTML in the Database is a security flaw

*With innerHtml you are working around angulars change detection

My advice: If it feels quirky to implement, it usually is quirky to implement.
So to a solution for your very problem:

*

*Separate Data from Layout:
export interface SomeElement {
   description: string;
}

*Use *ngFor

{{ element.description }}

*fetch data
elementsFromDb: SomeElement = /* fetch an array that looks like this [{ description: 'Column A - Add Element' }, { description: 'Column B - Add Element'}] */

The Glasgow Humane Society continues to serve the public of Glasgow and the visitors to our great city.
If we look at what is happening water safety wise in other Cities across the UK, Glasgow is lucky. Many Cities are now spending many thousands of pounds on safety surveys to see how they can make their territory safer.
The Glasgow Humane Society has been carrying out this type of survey in the Greater Glasgow area for over 228 years.
Glasgow has had this service since the time of the French Revolution.
Officers, Directors and supporters of the Glasgow Humane Society, Councillors City Employees Citizens and visitors must be, and rightly should be, proud of our partnership.
The City, the Country, the World is full of problems that require to be looked at, but I cannot apologise for being extremely parochial in my following comments, only looking at water safety throughout our wonderful City.
The Glasgow Humane Society has been giving this service to the Greater Glasgow area for over 226 years.
More Independent Lifeboats are being set up along our coastlines and in our Lochs/Lakes Rivers and other waterways. There are possibly more Independent Lifeboats in the UK than there are RNLI.
Glasgow has set and is setting a standard in waterside development incorporating safety. While others spend-spend-spend on consultancies we do it in-house with a combination of the Glasgow Humane Society and the Glasgow City Council Water Safety Group—founded by the Humane Society.
Officers, Directors and supporters of the Glasgow Humane Society, Councillors City Employees and Citizens must be, and rightly should be, proud of our partnership.

Angel has been working with kids ages 3 and up since 2006 and has managed to perform from high school recitals to sharing the stage with local and touring acts throughout Southern California including SOMA San Diego (legendary punk venue), The Epicentre (Mira Mesa), and in the Queen Mary ship (Long Beach). Being classically trained, Angel is able to teach techniques that would later help in the long run. His way of teaching is in a step-by-step section-by-section process that would allow the student to learn small portions at a time to not make it look so overwhelming.

Norwegian dramatist: b. Skien, Norway, 20 March 1828; d. Christiania, Norway, 23 May 1906.
He became an apothecary's apprentice in the little town of Grimstad, being forced to earn a living owing to the impoverished condition of his family, but was determined not to ignore any possibility of obtaining an education by reading and study. His opposition to convention at first took the form, so common among young persons, of an avowed advocacy of the wicked and irregular, expressed in the thought that if he should be destined ever to perform a great deed, it would necessarily be a "deed of night," and in his occupation with the study of the subversive characters of history, including chiefly Catiline (q.v.), who became the hero of his first play ('Catilina,' 1850).
At Christiania, Ibsen attended a preparatory school in order to prepare for the medical school of the university. He failed in the entrance examinations, however, and undertook the publication, together with two other young men (Aasmund O. Vinje and the bibliographer, Batten-Hansen), of an unsuccessful weekly, Andhrimnir, Ibsen's contributions to this paper were short satires and lyrics. He was also much interested in Old Scandinavian history and legend, and began to write a number of dramas on themes connected with these legends, not uninfluenced by the works of Oehlenschläger (q.v.) and H. Hertz, the first of which is 'Kæmpehöjen' ('The Warrior's Grave,' 1850), which had three performances at Christiania and was later printed serially in a Bergen newspaper (1854). In 1851 the violinist Ole Bull obtained for him the position of manager in the National Theatre at Bergen, which he held until 1857.
Very important for Ibsen's artistic development was the trip which he undertook in 1852, under instructions from the Bergen theatre, to inspect the theatres of Dresden and Copenhagen, which were then managed by Devrient and L. Heiberg, respectively. His chief duty in connection with the theatre at Bergen was to produce an original play for performance each year on the anniversary of the theatre's foundation (2 January). The 1855 play was 'Fru Inger til Östraat' ('Lady Inger of Östraat,' dealing with the events preceding the Reformation in Norway). In 1856 came 'Olaf Liljekrans' (not printed until 1898, and then only in German, as a part of the nine-volume edition edited by Georg Brandes for S. Fischer, Berlin), and in 1857, 'Gildet paa Solhaug' ('The Banquet of Solhaug'), a drama from the life of the Norwegian people in the 14th century.
From 1857 until the bankruptcy of the Norwegian Theatre at Christiania, in 1864, Ibsen held the post of manager at that institution. In this period he produced only three plays, 'Hærmændene paa Helgeland' (1868) (introduced to the English and American stage a few years ago by Ellen Terry; 'The Vikings at Helgoland'), a pregnant, intense, laconic tale of Icelandic family feuds, taken from the Saga of Sigurd, and written in a prose not unlike that of the Icelandic sagas; 'Kjærlighedens Komedie' ('The Comedy of Love,' 1862). a rimed satiric play dealing with social conditions; and 'Kongsemnerne' ('The Pretenders,' 1864), another study of Norwegian history, interesting chiefly in that it presents a picture of self-confidence and moral responsibility in their struggle with laxity and irresoluteness, as personified in the persons of King Hakon and Jarl Skuli.
In 1864 Ibsen was so fortunate as to obtain a traveling scholarship, and from this time until 1891 he spent almost all his time in foreign countries, where most of his great plays were to be produced, residing chiefly at Rome, Dresden and Munich.
The larger, freer, more cosmopolitan life of Europe gave Ibsen a larger outlook than the narrow parochial atmosphere of the small Norwegian city, but he now turned to Norwegian themes with a greater intensity and vigor than before, treating them now as universal in their appeal; no dramatist ever limited himself so completely to his own country in his choice of subject, and none ever treated all his subjects so absolutely from the purely human point of view. 'Brand' (1866) and 'Peer Gynt' (1867) are the first of his great plays. They are the last plays Ibsen wrote before discarding verse. 'Brand' exposes the danger and destructiveness of the idealist who would force others to live according to his ideals, while 'Peer Gynt' satirizes the idealist who constructs a world only for himself and shuts all others out of it.
In 1869 came 'De unges forbund' ('The League of Youth'), a modern social comedy exposing the knavery of conscienceless political agitators and inaugurating the long line of social dramas, dealing with vital and concrete problems of every-day life, to which Ibsen was to devote the rest of his active labors. Once only (in his next play, 'Emperor and Galilean,' an enormous tragedy in two parts, of five acts each) he was to work again in the field of history, producing an impressive study of the clash of free will and historic preordination, impersonated in the character of Julian the Apostate, in his vain effort to restore paganism at a time when the world was already ripe for Christianity.
It is the remaining plays, produced after 'Kejser og Galilæer,' with which readers are chiefly acquainted, which make Ibsen immortal, and which have entirely remolded the dramatic literature of the world since their appearance. They are 'Samfundets Stötter' ('Pillars of Society,' 1877), 'Et Dukkehjem' ('A Doll's House,' 1879), 'Gjengangerne' ('Ghosts,' 1881); 'En Folkefiende' ('An Enemy of the People,' 1882); 'Vildanden' ('The Wild Duck,' 1884); 'Rosmersholm' (1886); 'Fruen fra Havet' ('The Lady from the Sea,' 1888); 'Hedda Gabler' (1890); 'Bygmester Solness' ('The Master Builder,' 1892); 'Lille Eyjolf' (1894); 'John Gabriel Borkman' (1896); 'Naar vi döde vaagner' ('When We Dead Awaken,' 1900).
These 12 plays are a complete comédie humaine, a comprehensive indictment of the evils necessarily associated with a disordered society, beginning with 'Pillars of Society,' which is a sort of headline synopsis, in cruder form, of all the plays that follow, and running on through play after play, each taking up and pursuing with merciless clearness some problem outlined but not completely disposed of in its predecessor. Thus, 'A Doll's House' puts the problem of the devoted self-sacrificing wife whose husband values respectability and social position above her affection, and who deserts him that she may know what life really is; it caused Ibsen's provincial critics to ask: "Why did she not remain? Was not her first duty with her two children?" Ibsen accordingly answered this question in 'Ghosts,' the next play, in which, in three terrible acts, he presents the case of a wife who remained with her husband and child. The husband's respectability cloaked a boundless dissoluteness, and the disease contracted in one of his dissipations causes the son to go insane many years later.
The student wishing a complete interpretation of Ibsen and of the connection between his social plays is referred to G. B. Shaw's, 'The Quintessence of Ibsenism,' from which the above quotation is taken (1st ed., 1891); there is also an interesting but rather crabbed essay on 'Hedda Gabler' by Henry James. The understanding of the later plays, beginning with 'Rosmersholm' (1886), is rendered somewhat difficult by the introduction of numerous symbolic elements. The tone becomes one of bitter resignation, of regret at having wasted opportunities for natural living and real enjoyment. The last 15 years of his life were spent at Christiania, the last seven years in increasing mental disturbance, which indicated that Ibsen's mind was slowly weakening.
In 1900, after the last play, 'When We Dead Awaken,' was finished (Ibsen seems to have intended it to be his last, for he called it "A Dramatic Epilogue"), a bronze statue (by Sinding) was erected to him in Christiania .... The reception of Ibsen's plays in Norway and in foreign countries was at first uniformly hostile. The venomous nature of the attacks by professional literary critics is best evidenced by the quotations given in Shaw's book (see above) from contemporary London newspapers, and is paralleled only by the similar outbursts called forth from the musical critics by the first of the epoch-making innovations of Richard Wagner.
The New York press greeted the first American performance of 'Ghosts' in 1902 with equal hostility. But Ibsen's popularity long before his death was already so great that the later plays appeared simultaneously in all the capitals of Europe, translations into the important languages having been prepared before the publication of the original.

The captain of a doomed Ethiopian Airlines flight did not practice on a new simulator for the Boeing 737 Max 8 before he died in a crash with 157 others, a pilot colleague said.
Yared Getachew, 29, was due for refresher training at the end of March, his colleague told Reuters, two months after Ethiopian Airlines had received one of the first such simulators being distributed. He declined to give his name as staff have been told not to speak in public.
In both cases, the pilots lost control soon after takeoff and fought a losing battle to stop their jets plunging down.
The Max, which came into service two years ago, has a new automated system called MCAS (Manoeuvring Characteristics Augmentation System) that's meant to prevent loss of lift, which can cause an aerodynamic stall sending the plane downwards in an uncontrolled way.
"Boeing did not send manuals on MCAS," the Ethiopian Airlines pilot told Reuters in a hotel lobby.
Globally, most commercial airline pilots refresh training in simulators every six months. In the Ethiopian crash, it was not clear if Yared's colleague on board — First Officer Ahmednur Mohammed, 25, who also died in the crash — had used the new simulator.
At that time, CAE had orders from airlines globally for 30 Max simulators, which cost between $6 million and $15 million each depending on customisation.
The world's largest 737 operator, Southwest Airlines, will not have its first Max simulator ready for use until October, its pilot union said on Wednesday.
With charges looming, could Israel's 'King Bibi' be toppled?


"Even though it may not feel this way right now," writes CareNote author Nancy Stout, a nurse and chaplain, "time, and your own efforts, will begin to heal your heart. You can achieve a sense of peace after loss. Here are some steps that have helped me through the first year of the loss of a very dear friend." This booklet will be a source of strength, hope, and peace as bereaved persons turn to it for help in that uniquely painful first year after a loved one's death.

It is a ruminant, eating its food in two stages and having an even number of toes on each hoof, like camels, goats and cattle. European red deer have a relatively long tail compared to their Asian and North American relatives. Subtle differences in appearance are noted between the various subspecies of red deer.

How To Close The Inventory Period For All Organizations At One Time ?
Yes we can do that ..
This is a batch process that runs and closes the periods based on the Large Org Hierarchy that has been established for the instance. The process will run for the Hierarchy which uses INV_MGD_SRS_HIERARCHY_WITH_ORIGIN.
This process can only be run though if the Large Organization Structure has been implemented for the organizations.


Whether vocal or instrumental, music often brings together talented young people who share the same passion. This passion brought the six Kanneh siblings from Nottingham to Britain's Got Talent, and they managed to prove their undeniable musical talent.
The Kanneh family can be proud of their talented children who participated in the contest with a classical piano, violin and cello performance. The six siblings made Simon Cowell, one of the most frightening judges, enthusiastically affirm that they are the most talented family in the world.
They all master their instruments, and their joy when interpreting any song is amazing. Even though very young, they have learned that music is an impressive art that can give you satisfaction when you put your soul and passion into it.
The Kanneh siblings have won many awards for their musical performances and have also been successful in numerous television shows. In this contest they wanted to share their passion for classical music, and they were rewarded with four favorable votes, to the immense pride of their parents.


New, more sophisticated systems are becoming available almost daily and existing systems are becoming more out dated just as quickly. There are three new affordable voice controlled systems becoming available right now!
When an industry is increasing and changing with such speed, it is a challenge for the average consumer to keep up with new developments and sort through the growing offerings of products.
We have the up-to-date knowledge to help you decide what features you need (or want) and just as importantly features that you don't really need or that may become problematic.
New technology is great, but it has to be beneficial and add value to your home and not become a frustration. For example, who wants to reach for a cell phone to turn a light on when a standard light switch would be much more convenient.
The integration of technology and services within a 21st century home should provide for a better quality of life, enhance your family's safety and security, offer superior functionality and of course add value to your home.
Home automation integration is much more than the amalgamation of various technologies and their control within the home. Connecting standalone systems or devices together and distributing AV services is only the beginning!
Home automation should, as its name suggest, facilitate learning so that your home gets to "know" your family's routines.
There are five levels of home automation, the first three of which are described by automation companies as their vision of "smart homes", but only the last two are in fact truly "smart".
Homes which contain intelligent objects – These are homes containing single, stand-alone objects or devices which function in an intelligent manner.
Homes which contain intelligent, communicating objects – These homes contain appliances, objects and devices which function intelligently in their own right and which also exchange information between one another to increase functionality.
Connected homes – These homes have internal and external networks allowing interactive and remote control of systems, as well as access to services and information, both within and beyond the home.
Learning homes – Patterns of activity in the home are recorded and the accumulated data used to anticipate the occupant's needs and to control the technology accordingly.
Attentive homes – The activity and location of people and objects within the home is constantly registered and this information is used to control technology in anticipation of the occupants' needs.
We can explain the broad range of offerings in each of the above five categories to progress a solution applicable to your needs.


In this edition, we check in with Anne-Marie Idrac, High Representative to the French Government for the Development of Autonomous Vehicles, who discusses France's ambitious autonomous mobility plans and the challenges that lie ahead.

Q: Why does FFmpeg encode by default? By default the following unpresuming FFmpeg command:
ffmpeg -i "input.mp4" "output.mkv"

...will lossily encode a file unless it has the -c copy flag added, which will then pass the video through without any encoding. I remember not realising this as a beginner to FFmpeg years ago and being surprised when I found out, and ever since then it's something I've wondered about but not got around to asking.
The main justification for this behaviour that comes to mind for me is that encoding is a much more common operation, and it might be annoying to have to pass an extra -encode flag for most uses.
Was this ever one of the reasons cited for this design decision? Has the issue ever even been discussed in the FFmpeg mailing lists, or has it remained unquestioned since being written during the days of Fabrice Bellard?

The mission of SKN Foundation is to promote total wellness of the person and community through education.
The vision of SKN Foundation is to reduce health disparities and improve health equity through education of our community.
Shri Krishna Nidhi (SKN) Foundation is a 501(C)(3) non-profit organization with a mission to promote total wellness of the person and community through education. In various populations, including the South Asian diaspora, there are radical health disparities in access to care, service utilization and quality, and outcomes. Alongside evidence of chronic disease burdens in heart disease, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and cancer, there is also a poorer understanding of disease prevention in culturally isolated community groups. Lifestyle modification and aggressive compliance with medical treatment is the key to a healthier lifestyle, leading to the prevention of many chronic illnesses. This is accomplished through limiting risk factor development through education.
If your first contact with us is online, we would love to hear from you! Please contact us with any comments or questions.
The acronym SKN stands for Shri Krishna Nidhi, a name inspired by three individuals who are the guiding light behind our work. They inspire us daily to make a meaningful impact on the community that we serve.
Shri Krishna was a highly educated scholar and the first Gold Medal Awardee in the English language at Lucknow University in 1932 and an author of multiple books. He settled down in the small town of Barabanki to become the principal of a school where during a routine illness he was misdiagnosed by an alternative health care provider and with medication errors lost his life at the young age of 40 years.
Gopal Krishna
Gopal Krishna was diagnosed with diabetes in his early forties. With expertise in Mathematics and Statistics he worked for the United Nations as a demographer to lead the census projects in various countries including Liberia. With adequate control but poor knowledge of the comprehensive management required for his disease, the rapid progression of Cardiovascular complications from diabetes led to his untimely death.
Nidhi was a warm and compassionate mother, whose life's purpose was her family and the education of her children. At 36 yrs, her family life was shattered when she was diagnosed with a brain tumor without any prior history or knowledge on identification of symptoms or adequate utilization of the health care system. The diagnosis came as a whirlwind which took her life within 6 months of diagnosis.

Selena Gomez, Winner Of The Woman Of The Year Award, Comments On Her Reconciliation With Justin Bieber
There is often a lot of glamor and attention surrounding the lives of celebrities. Many times, the fame and wealth cover their story and even their flaws. Many raving and die-hard fans follow these celebrities, knowing very little about the kind of struggles and challenges they may have endured while growing up.
Selena was born to a teenage mother who was 16 at the time. Despite the odds surrounding her birth, Selena rose through the cracks to become an outstanding actress, music artist, and philanthropist, among other hats she wears. She began as early as 7, featuring in popular TV series, like Barney and Friends.
Selena, chosen as the Woman of the Year
Selena, who is now 25, has had to endure a kidney transplant, and she cannot but be grateful for the life she has and those who stood by her throughout her ordeal. She found a perfect match who volunteered to donate her kidney.
She didn't have the boldness or courage to ask anyone to do this, but the volunteer chose to let her have it even without asking. Who wouldn't be grateful for that? There are others who suffer the same fate, who do not get donors or are unable to raise the funds to get the transplant done. Selena had both.
Selena gives thanks
Honestly, I couldn't be more grateful for the position that I've been given in my career, from 7 to 14 to now.
Those are words from someone who understands what it means to succeed. No one succeeds in isolation of others. Even an island is so because it is surrounded by water. Selena walked gracefully to the stage to receive the Woman of the Year Award put together by Billboard's Women in Music. She has had an incredible year so far.
She talks about Justin Bieber and The Weeknd
Most people begin dating in their teens. This was the same for Selena who met Bieber in her teenage years and soon enough, they hit the ground running and showed the world they were deeply in love. Love sure has its ups and downs as later, the news broke out that they were no longer together.
Throughout the years they dated, they came on and off until in February 2016, when she was asked again about the state of her relationship with Justin Bieber. She said:
Well, I am sorry, first of all. And honestly, what I would love to be printed is that I am so beyond done with talking about that, and him.
Life sure goes on for this young and vibrant woman. Her recent victory over illness will surely serve as an inspiration many years from now.

Sweden: Adult Vibrant LARPing as a Teen is Sentenced for Killing Swedish Schoolmate
Charles Martel
So this bearded child has been sentenced to seven years in prison, then deportation.
Sweden is actually going to spend hundreds of thousands of Somali rupees (or whatever currency it now uses) to imprison an invader who it supposedly plans to kick out.
Why not just sentence him to deportation from the get-go and be done with it?
Is it because Sweden doesn't actually plan to deport him at all?
Breitbart:
An Eritrean migrant claiming to be 16 has been sentenced to seven years in prison followed by deportation for the murder of a 15-year-old Swedish schoolmate.
The murder took place in February and saw the "underage" migrant get into a fight with the victim who had previously been his friend, and during the altercation he strangled the 15-year-old and killed him — although the migrant claims he did not kill the teen on purpose, Nyheter Idag reports.
Following the death of the teen, the migrant emptied the victim's pockets and took photographs of the body on his mobile phone that he deleted the next day, but they were recovered by forensic experts.
The family of the teen reported him missing two days after the murder but the body was not found until February 13th after the Eritrean had admitted the incident to a friend. The friend relayed the information to his parents who called the police. The migrant was arrested that day.
During the trial of the Eritrean, the court found that despite the migrant's claims, the murder was likely intentional due to the taking of photographs and the looting of the body. Witnesses had also testified that the migrant had threatened to kill the 15-year-old in the past as well.
While the Eritrean maintained he was 16, medical tests revealed him to be at least 18 years old and a witness stated that he was as old as 21.

The restaurant business is undoubtedly tough especially in Bahria Town and everyone knows it! Every other month, we have been watching unanticipated and continuous closings. Well, I am not an expert in a restaurant's business but I must say to invest in Bahria's market one should ignore the "Risk and Reward" factor here! Because no matter how good is the location, taste, ambiance or enormous investments the restaurant's owner could make. In the end, it came up with the end. Again here is one of the examples of the above statement.
Smoke House Grill restaurant is one of those restaurants who had invested well in order to provide a good ambiance and quality food. The reviews they got were also positive and captivating. However, its been around 3 weeks the restaurant Smoke House Grill is closed. In Bahria Town, it first opened in March this year. Unfortunately, within the period of six months of its operation, the restaurant stopped serving. I went there a few days back to get details to share here. At that time, they just told me that the restaurant is temporarily closed due to some issues.
Now, last Wednesday, I got to know that the restaurant will resume its services soon. So, if you were a frequent visitor of Smokehouse Grill restaurant then do not get disconcert. The initial management of Smokehouse Grill couldn't make it through and eventually, they sold it out. The new management will reopen the restaurant soon. Maybe in a day or two. I've also heard that they will sell the same food and the menu card would be the same like before but it is not confirmed. Well, stay tuned I will share its new menu card here soon!

Silvia Furmanovich Evokes The Beauty Of The Amazon Forest With A New Jewellery Collection
February 21st 2019
A visionary in the jewellery world, Silvia Furmanovich proves why ancestral techniques, hand-craftsmanship and sustainability in the jewellery industry are here to stay...
They say 2019 is the year for you to either go big or don't bother at all when it comes to making a statement with your jewellery. And in Silvia Furmanovich's case, that's exactly what the brand did.
It was in 1997 that the daughter of a renowned goldsmith, Silvia Furmanovich, took the knowledge channeled down from her father and released a distinctive range of jewellery pieces and eventually, clutches too. It was through her memories from unique travel experiences that drove the designer to beautifully craft her contemporary inspirations into a work of art.
The eponymous label broke all jewellery rules when they revived an ancient technique and introduced it to jewellery enthusiasts around the world. Using a 16-century ancestral technique, marquetry, Silvia eventually intertwined the creations with wood, lightness, semi-precious stone and gold, resulting in a precious piece of artwork.
It wasn't too long after that Silvia's son, Alexandre Furmanovich, eventually followed in his mother's footsteps. Adding his own twist to the already-successful design aesthetic of the brand, Alexandre merges the past and the present, eventually manifesting in creations a striking balance between tradition and innovation.
Here, he speaks to MOJEH about the process behind it all, the new Botanical collection and which celebrity he'd like most to front his designs…
Silvia Furmanovich Banana Flower Marquetry
Welcome back to Dubai! Can you tell us more about the new Botanical collection?
The new Botanical Collection is a really important collection for us because it is something that really represents Brazil. It's made by a community located in the middle of the Amazon forest in Brazil. It's made with sustainable wood, natural colour – not dyed or anything – and it was a great collection for us because it is something so unique that people really appreciate the craftsmanship. We started this four years ago and we started with just flat surfaces. Then we decided to do jewellery in a 3D way which includes more volume. We needed to cut the wood into flowers and pieces, and then we had the marquetry work done on it. The community used to work on large sizes like tables and furniture, so they were able to diminish the size in order to make the jewellery.
A sustainable approach to your jewellery pieces! What are your thoughts on how the ethical jewellery industry is growing?
I think the world has changed. Nowadays you need to be sustainable. For example, lots of jewellery houses used ivory and it's the same thing as wearing a fur coat these days. Especially when you extract these types of materials from nature, like wood, you don't want to destroy the trees and you have to be pretty sustainable. The world has changed completely.
What's your favourite piece from the collection?
For me, my favourite would be the butterflies of course! They are always one of a kind pieces. The colours are incredible and I really like the lily pads with the frogs because if you go to the community in the Amazon, you see lots of lily pads over there.
Silvia Furmanovich Butterfly Marquetry Earring
Getting to understand the roots of the brand, how would you describe the Silvia Furmanovich design aesthetic?
It's actually quite difficult to say because there are so many inspirations from all over! (Laughs) And there's a long process that goes behind making the jewellery as well.
How long does it usually take?
Sometimes it takes a year. If it's a really special piece that takes time to manufacture or you need to find the right stone, the right colour or even just for the idea to come, it can take over a year.
What type of woman comes to mind when designing your pieces?
I think it's someone who really likes art and someone who already owns a few diamonds. However, they also want to have something that is unseen before and at the same time, really wearable. It's not something that will stay in the safe all of the time. It's a statement piece.
Silvia Furmanovich Mushroom Marquetry Earring and Marquetry Leaf Bracelet
Your mother started her career with knowledge passed down from her father. Now that you're following in your mother's footsteps, how have you brought your own vision to the brand?
Well the thing is, I was always into stones and my mother was always into different materials. We liked merging these two concepts of the stones and different materials. When I went to India, she also came to India with me and we got several carved stones and we set it in a different way to complement each other.
Was she always keen on listening to your ideas?
Yes! Because I would say that I'm a bit more traditional with stones and she would be more innovative with the materials. When she first discovered wood, I was the one that said we needed to be combined with precious and semi-precious stones.
Your collections seem to be injected with influences from your travels and nature…
Of course! We've been all over and each time we go to different places, we have different ideas. We did a Japanese collection about four years ago. My mother has a really good vision of sourcing collections. She went to a place in Japan called Wajima, and she found a set of antique spoons which she eventually turned into earrings. She cut the spoon in half and one side was a spoon and the other side was the handle of the spoon.
Some of your key collections have also been named after countries including Japan, Egypt, Italy and India. Will we see a UAE-inspired collection soon?
Probably… (Laughs). It's something that we would like to see. We would have to go into the details and find something that is typical here but something that we can adapt to jewellery.
The brand opened its first standalone boutique in Brazil in 2009. Fast forward ten years later, are you hoping to branch out and open more standalone stores around the world?
Yes! But, it would have to be in certain places. I would love to have one in London, in New York and key places around the world. Eventually I would like one here in the Middle East, which will obviously be in Dubai. It's a key city!
What's your take on jewellery here in the Middle East?
I think jewellery is like a culture here in the Middle East. There's everything here. There's something more traditional, and if you think of jewellery from here, you eventually think about gold and [lots] of diamonds (laughs!)
Sheikha Moza bint Nasser Carries Silvia Furmanovich Marquetry Clutch
Some of the brand's award-winning pieces have been worn by celebrities including Naomi Campbell, Gwyneth Paltrow and Isabeli Fontana. Is there another celebrity that you would love to see front your pieces?
For me, I would have to say Cate Blanchett!
What can we expect to see next?
We'll be launching an Oriental collection in three months with limited-edition clutches and jewellery pieces. Stay tuned!
