Designed by Minoru Yamasaki, the architect behind the innovative design of the former World Trade Center Towers, The Tulsa Performing Arts Center springs from remarkable origins. In 1973, philanthropists John H. Williams and Leta Chapman called on Tulsa voters to fund half of the cost of construction and they would match the amount. The people of Tulsa took up the challenge and the center opened its doors in 1977. It is home to 12 resident companies and has seen the likes of Ella Fitzgerald, Michael Buble and Itzhak Perlman take to its many stages.

Milwaukee Brewers manager Craig Counsell has been unconventional with his pitching staff for the entire National League Championship Series, but he took it to a whole nother level in Game 5 when he started left-hander Wade Miley on three days' rest but then removed him after one batter in favor of right-hander Brandon Woodruff.
The move was a clever one as the Dodgers typically utilize platoons based on the handedness of the opposing starter. But Dodgers manager Dave Roberts anticipated something may have been amiss.
The move looked to be working for a while as Woodruff tossed four scoreless innings to begin the game. However, the Dodgers eventually got to him and tagged him for five hits and three runs (two earned) in 5.1 innings in their 5-2 victory to take a 3-2 series lead.
Roberts wasn't ready to admit that he wasn't surprised by the move, but he emphasized that he and his club were anticipating anything. "Again, you never know. It was very unconventional, but we were prepared for anything," Roberts said.
Miley is now set to start at Miller Park in Game 6 of the NLCS. He will all but certainly face more than one hitter in that game. There was a scenario in which Miley would have made a more conventional start on Wednesday.
With the Brewers' biggest strength being their bullpen, and the Dodgers' being their positional player depth, the NLCS has been quite the chess match between the two managers.
Roberts seemed to have pulled the right strings on Wednesday, and the Dodgers are now just one win away from returning to the World Series for the second consecutive season.


Viva la Mamma Beretta is one of the most popular Italian brands of ready meals. Thanks to the synergy with Bitmama, it created its clear and defined voice on social media, a voice which is cheerful and ironic, always looking on the bright side of life.
In 2018, the brand launched its versatile products – from tramezzini sandwiches to hot and ready meals for the oven – in order to occupy, with its Viva la Mamma, a very important moment in the working day: lunch break.
Lunch break is a very sacred moment for everyone, especially for workers. But how can Viva la Mamma enter people's on and offline life and entertain them? It's easy! Thanks to a campaign based on a web series with a unique taste.
In "I Nemici della pausa pranzo" (Lunch Break Enemies) we bump into four colleagues in an office – from Mr. Perfect obsessed with his desk to the clumsy newly hired – struggling with funny hitches and planning tricks to save their lunch break. Five short episodes made of hilarious gags and unexpected solutions share a common element: Viva la Mamma products, a different way to show the values and features of the brand.
Along with the episodes, "I Nemici della Pausa Pranzo" has been a multi-channel campaign for media amplification: a landing page which shows Viva la Mamma and its several protagonists; pre-roll contents for YouTube; a Google Search campaign and a creative banner display. Icing on the cake? Instagram stories and Facebook memes, two ideal formats to engage users in a funny and interactive way.
Online from September to December 2018, the campaign reached outstanding results: over 7 millions views, more than a hundred thousand interactions and almost 11 millions impressions on all platforms. This helped Viva la Mamma conquer lunch break in terms of visibility and conversations.

Yon Family Farms is a family-owned operation whose primary purpose is to raise high-quality Angus, SimAngus, and Ultrablack cattle. The Yon family consists of Kevin and Lydia and their three children: Sally, Drake, and Corbin. Kevin is a first generation Angus breeder who got his introduction into the cattle business at the age of twelve. It was then that he borrowed money to purchase an Angus heifer. Kevin met his wife, Lydia, at Clemson University where they were both pursuing degrees in Animal Science. After college, they got their feet wet as a couple in the cattle industry by landing their dream job of managing a registered Angus operation, Congaree Farms, near Columbia, SC. After seven years of growth there, the owner decided to disperse his cattle operation. Out of a job, but not their dream, the Yons took the plunge in 1996 and started their own Angus operation, Yon Family Farms in Ridge Spring, SC. By this time, the Yons were the proud parents of three children under the age of six, who made the move with 100 head of Angus females to embark on the venture that would become the family's sole source of income to this day. With both parents working full-time on the farm, the children have essentially "grown up" with the farm and have been part of its development every step of the way. Angus cattle have been an integral part of their lives and they were very involved in National Junior Angus Association activities as well as 4-H and FFA. All three children have graduated college (Sally- '13 Clemson University/'15 Oklahoma State University, Drake- '14 Clemson University, Corbin '16 Clemson University) now, and have returned home to work at the farm full-time. The spring of 2017, the Yon family welcomed a new son and daughter to the family. Drake married Nicole Schutte in April and Sally married Reid Harrison in May. We also have the third generation on board at YFF with the addition of Zoe Ruth Harrison born October 2018 and Elloree Gray Yon born April 2019. What began on 100 acres with additional leased land has evolved into an operation utilizing over 5000 acres, which maintains approximately 1200 head of registered broodcows and 200 commercial cows. The Yons will host both a Spring and Fall Production Sale where they sell around 425 registered bulls and 200 females each year. The Yons stress the importance of utilizing all the tools available. They develop three groups of sale bulls each year. Their operation is forage based and focuses on producing cattle for their customer base which is made up mainly of progressive commercial cattlemen.

Iryna Borysivna Hurvych (30 June 1911 - 30 March 1995) was a Soviet Ukrainian animator and screenwriter, Honored Art Worker of the USSR (1973).

Life
Iryna Hurvych was born on June 30, 1911, in the town of Letychiv, Podil Province (now Khmelnytsky Region). From 1934, after graduating from the Kyiv Art Institute, Hurvych worked at the Kyiv Studio of Feature Films. Later she became the artistic director of the Creative Association of Artistic Animation "Kyivnaukfilm". Hurvych was a member of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU) since 1947.

As an animation director Iryna Hurvych brought up many talented masters of animation. In 1960, she invited young artists, former architects Volodymyr Dakhno, David Cherkassky and Mark Draitsu, to become animators in The Adventures of Pepper, the first animated film by the creative association. There were no special institutions for learning a new profession at that time, so Hurvych as a senior specialist passed on the knowledge to younger ones, and they invented many new ones and later became known all over the world.

Iryna Hurvych died on 30 March 1995.

Amaryllis: Eating the bulb can cause abdominal pain.
Christmas Trees: Ingesting the bark can cause abdominal pain. The sap may cause an itchy skin rash. Christmas trees may be a bigger fire danger than poison danger.
Holly Berries: Eating one or two berries should be OK. More than two berries can cause nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. Minnesota Poison Control says 20 berries can kill a child.
Jerusalem Cherry: Ingestion can cause vomiting, skin redness, drowsiness or restlessness, and hallucinations. Seizures are possible, but rare.
Mistletoe: All parts of mistletoe contain toxins. If ingested, mistletoe can cause vomiting, diarrhea and abdominal pain. According to California Poison Control, one to two berries or leaves eaten by a child will NOT result in serious harm. If you hang mistletoe in your home during the holidays, place it in a piece of netting or a plastic sandwich bag to prevent leaves and berries from dropping to the ground where kids and pets can eat them.
Poinsettia: Contrary to popular belief, poinsettias are relatively safe, although eating several leaves can give you a stomach ache, and the sap can cause skin rash.
Pyracantha: You can eat a large number of berries before getting a stomach ache. Like the poinsettia, this plant is considered safe by experts.
Rosary Pea or Jequirity Bean: These berries are very dangerous. They can be swallowed whole, but can be life-threatening if they are chewed prior to swallowing. Vomiting and abdominal pain occurs within a few hours after swallowing, followed by bloody diarrhea.


It is a mistake to suppose that we must restrict ourselves in order to develop greater power or usefulness. This is to form the conception of the Divine Power as so limited that the best use we can make of it is by a policy of self-starvation, whether material or mental. Of course, if we believe that some form of self-starvation is necessary to our producing good work, then this belief will become a fact for us.
If we clearly realise that the creative power in ourselves is unlimited, then there is no reason for limiting the extent to which we may enjoy what we can create by means of it. Where we are drawing from the infinite we need never be afraid of taking more than our share. That is not where the danger lies. The danger is in not sufficiently realising our own richness, and in looking upon the externalised products of our creative power as being the true riches instead of the creative power of spirit itself.
If we avoid this error, there is no need to limit ourselves in drawing on the infinite storehouse: "All things are yours." And the way to avoid this error is by realising that the true wealth is in identifying ourselves with the spirit of opulence. We must be opulent in our thought. Do not "think money," as such, for it is only one means of opulence; but think opulence, that is, largely, generously, liberally, and you will find that the means of realising this thought will flow to you from all quarters.
We must not make ourselves dependent on any particular form of wealth, or insist on its coming to us through some particular channel—that is at once to impose a limitation, and to shut out other forms of wealth and to close other channels; but we must enter into the spirit of it. Now the spirit is Life, and throughout the universe Life ultimately consists in movement and circulation, whether within the physical body of the individual or on the scale of the entire solar system; and circulation means a continual flowing around, and the spirit of opulence is no exception to this universal law of all life.
When this principle becomes clear to us we shall see that our attention should be directed rather to the giving than the receiving. We must look upon ourselves, not as misers' chests to be kept locked for our own benefit, but as centres of distribution; and the better we fulfil our function as such centres the greater will be the corresponding inflow.
The answer is that we must always start from the point where we are; and if your wealth at the present moment is not abundant on the material plane, you need not trouble to start on that plane. There are other sorts of wealth, still more valuable, on the spiritual and intellectual planes, which you can give; and you can start from this point and practise the spirit of opulence, even though your balance at the bank may be nil. Then the universal law of attraction will begin to assert itself. You will not only begin to experience an inflow on the spiritual and intellectual planes, but it will extend itself to the material plane also.
If you have realised the spirit of opulence you cannot help drawing to yourself material goods, as well as that higher wealth which is not to be measured by money; and because you truly understand the spirit of opulence you will neither despise this form of good, nor will you attribute to it a value that does not belong to it; but you will co-ordinate it with your other more interior forms of wealth.
It is not money, but the love of money, that is the root of evil; and the spirit of opulence is precisely the attitude of mind which is furthest removed from the love of money for its own sake. It does not believe in money. What it does believe in is the generous feeling which is the intuitive recognition of the great law of circulation, which does not in any undertaking make its first question, How much am I going to get by it? but, How much am I going to give by it? And by making this the first question, the getting will flow in generously.
We are not called upon to give what we have not yet got and to run into debt; but we are to give liberally of what we have, with the knowledge that by so doing we are setting the law of circulation to work, and as this law brings us greater and greater inflows of every kind of good, so our out-giving will increase, not by depriving ourselves of any expansion of our own life that we may desire, but by finding that every expansion makes us the more powerful instruments for expanding the life of others.

J&K Bank Chairman and CEO Parvez Ahmed and Director General Health Dr Saleem-ur-Rehman today jointly inaugurated the Automated Teller Machine (ATM) in the premises of Jawaharlal Nehru Memorial Hospital here at Rainawari. Medical Superintendent JLNM Hospital Dr Nazir Ahmad Shahdad was also present on the occasion.
The chairman was accompanied by the bank's Presidents P K Tickoo, Abdul Rashid Sheigan, and Zonal Head Kashmir Central-I Manzoor Hussain, Vice Presidents and other senior functionaries of the bank.
After the inaugural ceremony, Parvez Ahmed had an interactive session with the doctors, para-medical and other staff stationed at JLNM hospital.
Addressing the doctors present on the occasion, Parvez Ahmed highlighted the extraordinary role played by medical fraternity while operating in the challenging environment in the valley.
"I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the medical fraternity of the state which is working in a difficult environment round the clock. Today I feel honoured to dedicate this ATM for the service of the public in general and the JLNM staff in particular", said Parvez Ahmed.
"Our state has produced a number of doctors who earned social and global acclaim for their extraordinary services and research-work in different fields of medicine and brought laurels to the state," he added.
On the occasion, Parvez Ahmed also announced a Cash Deposit Machine (CDM) shall be installed in the hospital premises in near future.
Pertinently, with the commissioning of today's ATM, the total number of such machines operating in the Kashmir Division increased to 713. Notably, the Chairman gave a patient hearing to the various queries and suggestions put forth by doctors in the meeting.

Measuring the DC Parameters of Op Amps
ВЫПУСК #67
James Bryant Загрузить в формате PDF
Modern op amps have very high open-loop gain and very low offsets. How can one possibly measure them? Or is that a closely held secret?
Remarkably easily, and absolutely not!
In the very first RAQ column, I praised the restaurant "La Cognette" in Issoudun in central France. I ate there again quite recently and, not long afterwards, at what is arguably the best restaurant in Africa, "Le Quartier Français" at Franschhoek in the South African winelands. At both places I had occasion to ask the chef how a dish was prepared, and at both I was willingly given all the details I could wish. The mediocre try to hide in secrecy, while the truly great wish to spread their knowledge.
Analog Devices is a world leader in analog technology. We believe that "If you cannot measure it, it's not science1" and are happy to share details of how we measure the parameters of our products.
Many textbooks include a diagram of an op amp with grounded inputs and a closed loop gain of 1-10 thousand driving a voltmeter that displays its offset amplified by 1-10 thousand. This technique works, provided care is taken to minimize thermoelectric voltages and the effects of bias currents, but it will only measure offset.
A slightly more complex arrangement, using a second op amp, allows the measurement of offset voltage, bias current, open-loop gain, common-mode rejection (CMR), and power supply rejection with minimal changes to the circuit and no low-level signal switching (which can introduce noise and errors). The addition of two more resistors and two more capacitors allows ac measurements as well. Furthermore, the second op amp need not be a high-performance device in order to make high-accuracy measurements (e.g., to measure very small offsets and very high gains).
The basic principle behind the circuit is that the auxiliary op amp provides feedback to the device under test (DUT), causing its output to be at a potential that forces the differential voltage at the auxiliary op amp's inputs to be (close to) zero.
While it is tempting to challenge readers to work out the fine details of the circuit's operation for all the different measurements, a detailed description is contained in "Simple Op Amp Measurements".
1 In "The Door into Summer" by Robert A. Heinlein (Chapter 9), Dr. Twitchell says, "If you can't measure it, it's not science." This is an inversion of "If it's science, you can measure it." Popularly attributed to Lord Kelvin, this is a poor synopsis of what he actually said, which is nearer to Dr. Twitchell's observation. "In physical science, the first essential step in the direction of learning any subject is to find principles of numerical reckoning and practicable methods for measuring some quality connected with it. I often say that when you can measure what you are speaking about, and express it in numbers, you know something about it; but when you cannot measure it, when you cannot express it in numbers, your knowledge is of a meagre and unsatisfactory kind; it may be the beginning of knowledge, but you have scarcely in your thoughts advanced to the state of Science, whatever the matter may be."

Different and Better
On thinking, investing, and living
I was fortunate to take a class taught by the late Jack McDonald, professor at the Stanford GSB, while at law school. Jack was an impressive figure who, over the course of five decades, taught and mentored some of the most successful investors of all time. The class was ostensibly about the tactics and strategy of financial investments, but Jack made clear from day one that his philosophy — that the best things in life come from disciplined investment over the long term — applied to personal investments as well. The extraordinary community around Jack served as a testament to the successful investments he had made in relationships over many years.
His professional record was equally impressive. As a famed value investor, he was a contrarian within the faculty ranks of the GSB, where academic work was dominated by efficient markets theory. Jack's personal warmth was a critical enabler of his intellectual iconoclasm because, as I recall him saying, friends and colleagues can more effectively and constructively disagree within a framework of mutual respect and regard. It didn't hurt that his investment record and that of his intellectual ally Warren Buffett remain a curious exception to the efficient markets conclusion that consistent outperformance by active financial managers over long periods is impossible.
I was reminded of Jack's philosophy recently while reading The Most Important Thing by Howard Marks, the co-founder and co-chairman of Oaktree Capital Management. Marks is an exceptionally clear and lucid writer (and thinker) and the book, which is built around excerpts from his regular memos to clients, begins with the seemingly obvious but under-appreciated observation that investors cannot achieve unconventional results with conventional thinking and behaviour. First level thinking — collecting, analysing, and reasoning about the same set of facts as most others and reaching similar conclusions — guarantees results consistent with or worse than consensus. To outperform, one must think different and better and act accordingly; this is second level thinking and it requires collecting a broader set of information, integrating it successfully, remaining humble about what is unknown and unknowable, and recognising that most people only engage in first level thinking. This final point is perhaps the most critical and has been brilliantly explained in similar terms by George Soros in his essay on reflexivity. In human affairs, Soros argues, we must recognise that the psychology and self awareness of the people involved is a critical, complex, and shifting element of outcomes. The mere knowledge that something is the case or that some relationship holds is often sufficient to change behaviour so that it is no longer the case. This is the source for Soros of the deep and abiding divided between the physical and social sciences. Both are vital, but we are likely to err when we mistake human bodies for Newtonian bodies. Reflexive human interactions resist being modelled in the same way that physical scientists model laws of nature.
In the context of investing, thinking different and better means being contrarian — and right. But how? Everyone claims to be contrarian in at least some regard, which is, of course, how we know it is not true. Most people are the herd as we can see by observing the latest social fad or investment behaviours, and everyone is part of the herd in at least some regard. The trick is to be contrarian and right in domains of importance where the returns to doing so are high. Marks argues that, in a professional context, this requires bringing to bear a set of intellectual tools that enable consistently superior thinking applied in a disciplined manner. His recommendations can be grouped into two categories:
Analytical Heft to enable identification of some fact, quality, or characteristic of reality that others don't yet recognise and are therefore failing to integrate into their thinking. You must also be correct in this identification.
Psychological Fortitude to act on that analysis and withstand the loneliness and, perhaps, ridicule likely to result until the consensus view shifts in your favour.
The Most Important Thing was written in 2011 and discuss how Oaktree was able to understand, recognise, and manage risk during the bull market before the financial crisis of 2008 in a way that limited losses and drove massive outperformance during the recovery. While he is very clear that he did not predict the crisis, he did successfully identify and articulate the risk building in the system in the years before and acted aggressively to defend against it. (Aggressive defence captures a lot of his recommendations.)
Reading his recommendations in 2021 is interesting because, while value has been handsomely outpaced by growth since the financial crisis, the unacknowledged risks being taken in 2004–2007 that Marks analysed bear many similarities to some current market behaviour. Now, like then, the sense in financial markets is that risk is low and "stonks only go up". Asset prices, buoyed by extremely loose monetary policy, are at or near all time highs and the recent acceleration of prices is reminiscent of jubilant periods that preceded falls. Not satisfied with seeing their neighbour or fellow Redditor get rich, retail is crowding in to equities in record numbers, afraid of missing out on the seemingly low risk rise of the hottest stocks. Novel financial products with questionable economics are proliferating (SPACs) and crazy financial behaviour is dominating headlines ($GME). Marks's recommendations prompt a clear conclusion: hold onto your wallet. With prices very high, the perception is that risk is low and expected return high; the reality is that, because markets are cyclical, risk (understood more broadly than the theoretical identification of risk with volatility) is high and expected returns are low. Bull markets eventually end.
Note, though, that Marks was sounding the alarm in 2004 about a crisis that manifested in 2008. So, while he was analytically correct, it required enormous psychological fortitude to look wrong for a long time. This is the rub. It is easy to articulate a set of principles for thinking and acting but it takes conviction and discipline to actually apply those principles when the herd is heading in the other direction. Jack embodied this discipline by applying the principles of long term perspective, analytical clarity, humility, integrity ,and conviction to cultivate success in investing but also in life. He taught me that the most rewarding returns of any kind are the result of sustained, disciplined, and high integrity investment over very long periods. What could be a more important thing than that?
Writing about things that interest me. Views are entirely my own.
