Mumbai Diary: Monday Dossier

The city - sliced, diced and served with a dash of sauce
Poetic miles in Vietnam
A known name on the poetry circuit as the co-founder of The Poetry Club, Ankita Shah is set to explore her love for words and verses further. The 24-year-old is one of 16 artistes, including architects, illustrators, filmmakers and musicians from across the world, to be selected for a two-week trip to various parts of Vietnam.
Through the journey, she will collaborate with fellow travellers on various projects, including a documentary film, a photo-poetry series, and working with ethnic families in the region. The journey has been designed by Roadtrip Experience Project, a platform that invites creators from diverse worlds to explore and co-create with local communities.
"I plan to document the journey by penning a poem every day, which highlights my experience. I will also contribute towards different projects with my words," shared Shah.

The monk who bought a book
We spotted this warm photo that TV journalist and author of Democracy's XI, Rajdeep Sardesai posted on social media recently. The book has been receiving rave reviews for its pick of India's most inspiring and iconic cricketers of all time.
The journalist was in Dehradun for the Valley for Words literature festival, and chanced upon a Ladakhi fan who was keen to get a frame with the author. In his words, "books travel far and wide!"

The journalist fraternity of the city was treated to a melodious evening over the weekend when Pandit Ronu Majumdar played soulful tunes at the Mumbai Press Club.

The maestro expressed his happiness over Indian classical music finding more acceptance among the masses. What was interesting was that Majumdar's dentist son Siddharth also played with him at the recital; something he has started doing only recently. With so much musical inspiration at home, it's easy to guess why.
Biking fun starts
'Tis the season to get on your bike and head to Goa. But with the fifth edition of the India Bike Week scheduled later this week, the sunshine state has become a mecca of sorts for biking enthusiasts from around the country.
To make things fun en route, the organisers are providing riders all assistance. As part of a tie-up with a road-trip app, information on road conditions, navigation, accommodation, food stops, fuel stations and points of interest will be provided. Sounds like a vrooming start.
Stories for kids, just a swipe away
Going by how children take to technology today, it wouldn't be wrong to say that they come wired with the skills to use it.
But does that mean having to settle for sub-standard content that's readily available for kids online? With the aim to make quality literature accessible to children, Pratham Books recently launched an initiative called PhoneStories, a series of four stories, specially designed for mobile devices, complete with an apt narration, subtitles and unique illustrations.
"There is an intrinsic value of a book in a child's hand. Our aim is to use technology as an adjunct to print," the not-for-profit publisher's chairperson Suzanne Singh told this diarist. The stories have been written by Sejal Mehta and are rooted in India's wildlife and forests.
"Sejal is deeply involved with wildlife protection and I have been a birder for many years. Animals are often over simplified in stories. We wanted to keep it real," says Rohan Chakravarty who has illustrated PhoneStories.

Use as you would any regular hairbrush and receive Magnetic Therapy while you brush. This unique Magnetic Hairbrush provides gentle scalp circulation to the hair follicles and a massage to your scalp while brushing your hair.
Used for hair loss, hair color and damaged hair follicles, as it helps with the loss of circulation to the site of the hair follicles. When you add circulation to an area you increase the vital nutrients for better function and performance, very often increasing hair volume and growth in the natural color.
Enjoy images of 1880 and 1890 magnetic hair brush.
Dr. Sierra's 1970's hair brush was a dominoe magnet taped to a custom hair brush with the South (+) polarity to the scalp to re-grow hair. He had a bald area in his scalp, brushing it daily he stimulated hair growth, but not only he had hair growth, his hair changed from white to gray and then to dark and prebvented more hair loss. Results were amazing to him and to many people he prepraed the brush for. Some also had their grey color turned dark. Now these brushes are custom made with both polarities to the scalp.
Remember that the Chinese have believed for centuries that exposure to a Magnetic Field leads to remarkably improved hair growth and improved hair condition. So this is not new!
On the other hand, Dr. Irma Sierra, also applies it to stimulate the acupressure points of the scalp and bring tension out at the end of a busy and stressful day! Also your hair can be healthier, shinier and as thick as possible as it adds volume. As a note, she has been using magnetic therapy nearly 50 years!
Who knows you may prevent hair loss and stimulate hair growth too! You have nothing to loose and a lot to gain!
Try it out! Start with a minimum of 2 minutes brushing in the morning and nite, plus any time during the day!

This one was a bit like From Dusk Till Dawn, turning on a dime and morphing into a completely different movie. It also helped that it was a bit under the radar, because I came to it completely cold.
With its grimy East End London setting and trappings of poverty, I thought the character of Jamie (Sturgess) was going to be a borderline genius or great unrecognised artist with a mental disorder (or some other such stalwart from movies about the disenfranchised) thanks to the heart shaped birthmark on his face he's always had an ambivalent relationship with.
There's a strong element of gang violence as a mysterious and murderous clan of youths in hooded jackets are on the rampage, carrying out nasty rituals and killing people by throwing Molotov cocktails at them.
Jamie sees them at it one day and is horrified when one of them turns to face him and reveals a reptilian face and a mouth full of sharp teeth. I thought he was finally cracking up from his lot in life.
But no, as we later find out in an attention-grabbing turn of events, the creatures are real. What's more, they're demons roaming the streets of London and Satan has sent them to ensure enough chaos and mayhem remains on Earth to maintain his presence. When Jamie is led by an enigmatic young girl who turns out to be a sort of angel from Hell, he gets to meet who I can only assume is Satan but who calls himself Papa B.
Papa B offers Jamie the chance of a lifetime – he'll remove all the blotches and discolourations from Jamie's body if he carries out his small slice of chaos when called upon, something innocuous that might not even come up for years.
Jamie agrees and his life turns around when he meets and falls for pretty courier Tia (Posey), but soon learns you should never make deals with the Devil. A bureaucrat (Marsan) comes to visit dispiritingly quickly in the one humourous scene of the film, telling Jamie his calling has come and that his task is far from innocuous – he has to kill someone within only hours.
The rest of the film is a stylised thriller and by the time it ends it's become a completely different beast from the one you sat down to watch. Interesting, well shot, and with only a minimum of plot stumbles.

The Smith Street Band Unveil Pool House Records
November 3, 2016 Sam Miller	Leave a comment
Less than 24 hours after releasing a video for their new single, "Death to the Lads", and announcing an Australian tour bearing the same name, The Smith Street Band have unveiled their new record label, Pool House Records. The band's upcoming album (title and release date yet to be announced) will be the first Pool House release, though the band has expressed a desire to release music for their friends in the near future. Along with the announcement, Chris Cowburn (drums) penned a heartfelt goodbye to the band's current label, Poison City Records.
We've loved our time on the label and personally it's a of part of my life that I'll genuinely cherish forever, and I know the rest of the guys would say the same. We wouldn't be the band or the people we are today without all the help, time, wisdom and advice Andy and the label have provided us.
You can follow Pool House Records on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook at @poolhouserecs. You can check out the new video for "Death to the Lads" (starring the band's moms!) right here!

Watch The Dramatic First Trailer For Marvel's Inhumans
"We've been hiding here too long."
By Dan Auty on June 29, 2017 at 12:08PM PDT
The first trailer for Inhumans has arrived. The upcoming Marvel show focuses on a family of superpowered moon-dwelling beings, whose members include the hypersonically-voiced Black Bolt and the super-haired Medusa. The trailer suggests plenty of family intrigue and provides us with a first look at giant teleporting dog Lockjaw. It's certainly dramatic, although at times it also has the feel of a cheesy '70s sci-fi show. Check it out below:

Inhumans is overseen by Scott Buck, the showrunner for Netflix's Iron Fist. Anson Mount stars as Black Bolt, with Iwan Rheon as Maximus, Serinda Swan as Medusa, Eme Ikwuakor as Gorgon, Isabelle Cornish as Crystal, and Ken Leung as Karnak.
The show is co-produced by ABC and IMAX. The first two episodes of the eight-part series will get a worldwide release in IMAX theaters on September 1. The series premieres on ABC on September 29, with the first two parts airing back-to-back.
The Inhumans were created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby and first appeared in a 1965 issue of Fantastic Four. Their first self-titled comic line ran from 1975 to 1977, and they have subsequently appeared in a variety of limited and ongoing series over the past four decades.

Here comes "parallel reality" computing!
A startup called Misapplied Sciences has developed technology, which it calls "parallel reality," that enables hundreds of people to look at a single screen and see completely different, customized views. I could look at a screen and see information in English, while the person standing next to me sees the same information in Mandarin and a third person sees French. Or, for that matter, I could see my texts and the others could see theirs.
"Parallel reality" technology could bring us something like augmented reality, but without the glasses.

Ticonderoga is a planet located in the Vegas System. The planet runs on produce from farming and is one of the many sources of food for Vegas. The world is often used as a stepping stone when entering the system before traveling to Vegas itself. The residents of Ticonderoga are modest and hard working. They are just trying to eke out an existence in such a rough time for the galaxy.
The economy of Ticonderoga is primarily fueled by agriculture and tourism. Most of the tourists are simply staying at the planet for a few days at a time before departing for Vegas.
The planet is so sparsely populated that crime is rare among residents. Most of Ticonderoga's crime rate comes from tourists and poachers. The vast majority of residents are armed, something that the VSG purposely overlooks.
Residents tend to be human, though a small contingent of alien refugees have found a home in the planet's agrarian lifestyle.

Israel to US: Challenge Iran to end nuclear program at once
Israel delivers strongly worded message to U.S., following comments advising Israel not to attack Iran's nuclear facilities • Defense Minister Ehud Barak: We are responsible for our own decisions concerning our future.
Shlomo Cesana, Lior Yacoby, Yoni Hirsch and News Agencies
Israel on Monday demanded that the U.S. challenge Iran to immediately put an end to its nuclear program while the U.S., for its part, urged Israel to allow sanctions against Iran to do the job and cease planning for a military strike. The exchange occurred in a meeting between U.S. National Security Adviser Tom Donilon and Defense Minister Ehud Barak and Chief of General Staff Lt. Gen. Benny Gantz, one of several that U.S. government officials have recently held with their Israeli counterparts in ongoing discussions concerning the Iranian issue. On his visit to Israel this week, Donilon also met with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is scheduled to travel to Washington next month where he will meet U.S. President Barack Obama on March 5, according to a White House statement.
Israeli officials clarified that as long as Iran does not halt its nuclear program entirely, action must be taken now to stop it from progressing any further. "The conversation covered a broad spectrum of topics that relate to our ties as well as a variety of issues concerning the entire region," Barak said after his meeting with Donilon. Barak pointed out that Israel's ties with the U.S. involve those of "sovereign countries that are ultimately responsible for their own decisions and futures."
Israeli government officials believe Iran is using diversionary tactics - such as agreeing to talks with Western countries - to stall for time and allow it to advance its nuclear program. The U.S. position is that there is still time for options - other than military action - to run their course.
Meanwhile, Iran continues flouting the international community's request for greater transparency about its nuclear program and continues to play war games. As U.N. nuclear inspectors arrived in Iran on Sunday for talks with Iranian officials about how far the country's controversial nuclear program has advanced, Iran's army began a drill to test the defenses of its nuclear facilities against an aerial assault. The four-day exercise - code-named "God's revenge" - is said to be testing advanced anti-aircraft missile systems, as well as artillery, radar, and management and control systems.
As International Atomic Energy Agency officials met with Iranian officials, Iran announced that in the coming months it intended to replace the core of a reactor in one of its nuclear facilities near Tehran with a more advanced version. In the same statement, the Iranian government spokesperson said that Iran continues to make important strides in its nuclear capability.
A spokesman for Iran's Foreign Ministry on Tuesday said the visiting U.N. team has no plans to inspect the country's nuclear facilities but will only hold talks with officials in Tehran. On Monday, Iranian radio said the U.N. team had asked to visit a military complex outside Tehran that has been suspected as a secret weapons-making location.
Ramin Mehmanparast said the IAEA experts are holding discussions Tuesday in Tehran to "accelerate" cooperation with the U.N. watchdog. He says this cooperation is at its "best" level. The two-day IAEA visit, which started Monday, is the second in less than a month by the U.N. team amid growing concerns over alleged Iranian weapons experiments .
Iran also said it would take pre-emptive action against its enemies if it felt its national interests were endangered, the deputy head of the Islamic Republic's armed forces was quoted by a semi-official news agency as saying on Tuesday.
"Our strategy now is that if we feel our enemies want to endanger Iran's national interests, and want to decide to do that, we will act without waiting for their actions," Mohammad Hejazi told Fars news agency.
Following Iran's announcement on Sunday that it was halting shipments of crude oil to Britain and France, Iran's Oil Minister Rostam Qassemi said on Monday that the country would halt oil shipments to other European countries if they moved forward with sanctions against Iran. The European Union imposed an embargo on oil imports from Iran, to start from July 1.
Qassemi warned the price of crude oil could reach $150 per barrel. On Monday, the price-per-barrel reached a nine-month high of more than $103.
Meanwhile, the Yomiuri newspaper in Japan, citing unidentified sources, said Japan and the U.S. reached an agreement at talks last week about the size of cuts to crude imports from Iran, with a formal deal expected by the end of this month.
Avoiding sanctions is essential to protect the Japanese financial sector's operations abroad, but cutting oil imports could pose a risk to Japan's economy. Reliance on oil imports has grown since a 2011 earthquake and tsunami triggered the Fukushima radiation crisis, leading to most nuclear reactors at Japanese power plants being shut down.
"We are closely negotiating with the United States and are moving forward toward mutual understanding, but it is not the case that we have reached a conclusion," Trade Minister Yukio Edano told reporters.
Iran, the biggest oil producer in OPEC after Saudi Arabia, denies Western suspicions that its nuclear program has military goals, saying it is for purely peaceful purposes.
At the same time that the U.S. government focuses on diplomatic efforts and sanctions, it is also trying to persuade Israel not to launch an attack on Iran's nuclear facilities. The New York Times reported on Monday that Israel would not be able to successfully strike Iran on its own, saying that "its pilots would have to fly more than 1,000 miles across unfriendly airspace, refuel in the air en route, fight off Iran's air defenses, attack multiple underground sites simultaneously - and use at least 100 planes."
According to The New York Times, that assessment is supported by a large part of the U.S. military establishment, many of whom point out that a strike on nuclear facilities in Iran would require much more than the surgical strike Israel carried out against Iraq's Osirak reactor in 1981 and the 2007 attack on a nuclear reactor in Syria that foreign media have attributed to Israel.
The report explained the practical difficulties involved in such a strike, and said there are "three potential routes [to reach Iran]: to the north over Turkey, to the south over Saudi Arabia or taking a central route across Jordan and Iraq." It added that military experts say the third choice - over Jordan and Iraq - would be the best path, since Iraq has had no air defense systems in place since U.S. forces left the country last year.
The next problem, says the article, is distance. Although the Israel Air Force possesses F-15i and F-16i combat aircraft, they will not be able to fly to Iran without undertaking complicated refueling operations in midair, and it is not certain that Israel has enough airborne refueling planes (tankers) to fulfill that task. Even if they do have enough tankers, the Times reported, additional combat aircraft would be required for protection during refueling.
Aside from Iranian anti-aircraft systems, The New York Times article cites other obstacles to an aerial strike on Iran, such as the fortified bunkers that house some of its nuclear facilities. Although Israel does reportedly have U.S. manufactured "bunker buster" bombs, it is unclear how far underground they can penetrate.

Hood & Portland To Coast Relays (Official Page) / Facebook
40th Anniversary Hood to Coast Relay Proudly Announces Partnership With Knockaround
The 40th anniversary Hood To Coast Relay, Portland To Coast Relays, and HTC Race Series proudly announce their 2022 and 2023 partnership with Knockaround. As the Official Sunglasses Partner of all HTC's endurance events and race series, Knockaround will have a presence at all events and design custom-branded 40th Anniversary Hood To Coast sunglasses.
"Growing up, my dad had a pair of sneakers in the garage that he'd wear when he mowed the lawn. He called them his 'knockaround' sneakers - he could count on them, they were dependable, and he didn't care if they got beaten up," said Knockaround Founder and Chief Creative Officer Adam Moyer. "So, I just applied the idea to sunglasses. I wanted them to be high quality yet affordable and the Knockaround name seemed like a natural fit."
Moyer continued, "We look forward to partnering with Hood To Coast as one of the most authentic races and endurance events. Having a presence at the most popular relay race in the world with almost 20,000 runner and walkers coming from all over and designing a 40th Anniversary custom limited edition pair of sunglasses solidifies our position as a leading sunglasses brand in the world of running and sport."
"We love the style and practicality of the Knockaround brand. The affinity for the sun and their laid-back style are a perfect fit for our participants," said Race Director Felicia Hubber. "We're excited to launch the custom-branded 40th anniversary sunglasses to our participants and spectators."
The 40th anniversary Providence Hood To Coast Relay is the most popular relay race in the world with nearly 20,000 runners and walkers participating in three events. The sold-out events annually place another 40,000 participants on a waiting list. This popularity has led to domestic and international expansion that started in 2017 with Hood To Coast Washington, Hood To Coast China, Hood To Coast Taiwan, and Hood To Coast Israel. The series of relays has also included HTC Europe, HTC Pacific City (OR), HTC Hilton Head (South Carolina), High Desert Relay (OR), Wind River Relay (OR), and Capitol To Coast Relay (Florida).
Since 2014, the Providence Cancer Institute has been the primary beneficiary of Hood and Portland To Coast fundraising revenue. Throughout those years, Hood and Portland To Coast participants and volunteers have raised over $6 million.

Rex Warner (9 March 1905 – 24 June 1986) was an English classicist, writer and translator. He is now probably best remembered for The Aerodrome (1941).[1][2] Warner was described by V. S. Pritchett as "the only outstanding novelist of ideas whom the decade of ideas produced".[3]

He was born Reginald Ernest Warner in Birmingham, England and brought up mainly in Gloucestershire, where his father was a clergyman.[4] He was educated at St. George's School in Harpenden, and at Wadham College, Oxford, where he associated with W. H. Auden, Cecil Day-Lewis, and Stephen Spender,[5] and published in Oxford Poetry. He obtained a 1st in Classical Moderations in 1925 and later graduated with a 3rd in English in 1928,[6] he spent time teaching, some of it in Egypt.
Warner's debut story, "Holiday", appeared in the New Statesman in 1930.[5] His first collection, Poems, appeared in 1937. Warner's poem, "Arms in Spain", a satire on German and Italian support for the Spanish Nationalists, has often been reprinted.[7] He was a contributor to Left Review. Warner was a great admirer of Franz Kafka, and his fiction was "profoundly influenced" by Kafka's work.[4] Warner's first three novels all reflect his anti-fascist beliefs; The Wild Goose Chase is in part a dystopian fantasy of a tyrannical government which is overthrown in a heroic revolution.[8][9] His second novel, The Professor, published around the time of the Nazi Anschluss, is the story of a liberal academic whose compromises with a repressive government lead eventually to his arrest, imprisonment and execution "while attempting to escape"; contemporary reviewers saw parallels with the Austrian leaders Engelbert Dollfuss and Kurt Schuschnigg.[2][8] Although Warner was initially sympathetic to the Soviet Union, "the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact left him disillusioned with Communism".[5] The Aerodrome was an allegorical novel whose young hero is faced with the disintegration of his certainties about his loved ones and with a choice between the earthy, animalistic life of his home village and the pure, efficient, emotionally detached life of an airman.[2] The Times described The Aerodrome as Warner's "most perfectly accomplished novel".[4] Why Was I Killed? (1943) was an afterlife fantasy with an anti-war theme.[5] Warner then abandoned contemporary allegory in favour of historical novels about Ancient Greece and Rome, including Imperial Caesar for which he was awarded the 1960 James Tait Black Memorial Prize for fiction. Imperial Caesar was praised by John Davenport as "delightfully perceptive and funny" and by Storm Jameson as "brilliant, intelligent, continuously interesting. It has everything".[10] The Converts, a novel about Saint Augustine, reflected Warner's own increasing devotion to Christianity.[4]
Warner served in the Home Guard during World War Two.[4] From 1945 to 1947 he was in Athens as Director of the British Institute. At that time he was involved in numerous translations of classical Greek and Latin authors. Warner's translation of Thucydides' History of the Peloponnesian War sold over a million copies.[5] He also translated George Seferis, later a Nobel laureate (Poems of George Seferis, 1960).
Interviewed for the book Authors Take Sides on Vietnam, Warner argued that the US Army should withdraw from Indochina.[11]
Later he was Tallman Professor of Classics at Bowdoin College (1961) and then professor at the University of Connecticut from 1962 for eleven years. He died in Wallingford, Oxfordshire.
Warner was married three times. His first marriage was to Frances Chamier Grove, in 1929.[4] The marriage ended in divorce after almost two decades, and in 1949 Warner married Barbara, Lady Rothschild, formerly the wife of Baron Victor Rothschild.[4] After his second divorce, Rex Warner, in 1966, remarried his first spouse.[3]

Alba Iulia (starorum. Bălgrad; ; , ; , od 1711 Karlsburg; polska nazwa nieodmienna) – miasto w Siedmiogrodzie (Rumunia), stolica okręgu Alba. Leży nad Maruszą. Liczy 58 681 mieszkańców (2011).

W mieście znajduje się stacja kolejowa Alba Iulia.

Historia
Miasto było ważnym centrum politycznym, ekonomicznym i społecznym Dacji. Pod nazwą Apulon zostało wspomniane przez starożytnego greckiego geografa, Ptolemeusza. Gdy południowa część Dacji stała się częścią Imperium rzymskiego, miasto zostało stolicą Dacji Apulensis, znane było jako Apulum. Apulum było jednym z największych centrów rzymskiej Dacji. Stacjonował tu XIII Legion.

W IX wieku miasto jest znane jako Bălgrad ("Biała Cytadela"). Węgierskie źródła wspominają władcę o imieniu Geula/Gyyla/Jula, który zdobył miasto i uczynił je stolicą swojego księstwa w X wieku. Następnie ustanowiono biskupstwo katolickie Siedmiogrodu (1009) po przyjęciu chrztu przez króla Węgier – Stefana I. Pierwsza katedra została zbudowana w XI wieku. W 1442 roku Jan Hunyady, wojewoda siedmiogrodzki wykorzystał cytadelę do przygotowań do głównej bitwy z Turkami. Katedra została rozbudowana za jego czasów i stała się miejscem jego pochówku.

Jako Gyulafehérvár Alba Iulia stała się stolicą Siedmiogrodu w 1541 roku, za Jana Zápolyi oraz Izabeli Jagiellonki. Status ten utrzymała do roku 1690.

W listopadzie 1599 roku Michał Waleczny, wojewoda Wołoszczyzny wkroczył do Alba Iulia w następstwie swojego zwycięstwa w bitwie pod Şelimbărem i został władcą Siedmiogrodu. W 1600 roku Michał przejął kontrolę nad Mołdawią i rządził tymi trzema krajami do swojej śmierci w 1601 roku, zamordowany przez agentów Giorgio Basty. Osiągnięcie Michała ma historyczne znaczenie dla Rumunów, ponieważ oznacza pierwsze zjednoczenie trzech rumuńskich krajów: Wołoszczyzny, Mołdawii i Siedmiogrodu.

Podczas panowania księcia Gabriela Bethlena w mieście założono Akademię. Po pokoju karłowickim w 1699 Alba Iulia znalazła się w granicach monarchii Habsburgów. Późniejsze ważne dla rozwoju miasta wydarzenia to powstanie biblioteki w XVIII wieku oraz zbudowanie linii kolejowej w wieku XIX.

W 1918 roku dziesiątki tysięcy Rumunów (dokładna liczba jest przedmiotem sporów węgierskich i rumuńskich historyków) zebrały się w Alba Iulia 1 grudnia, obchodzonego dziś jako Dzień Niepodległości Rumunii, by usłyszeć proklamację przyłączenia Siedmiogrodu do Rumunii. W 1922 roku Ferdynand I został symbolicznie ukoronowany na króla Rumunii w Alba Iulia, co stanowiło nawiązanie do dokonania Michała Walecznego.

Gospodarka
W Alba Iulia rozwinął się przemysł maszynowy, metalowy, skórzany, obuwniczy, spożywczy oraz materiałów budowlanych.

Zwiedzanie
Główne centrum historyczne Alba Iulia to miasto górne, rozwijane intensywnie przez cesarza Karola VI. Habsburgowie przemianowali miasto na Karlsburg dla uczczenia Karola. Zamek górnego miasta – imponujące założenie w stylu vaubanowskim – został zbudowany w latach 1716–1735, w obrębie twierdzy znajdują się m.in. dwie katedry (średniowieczna katolicka i XX-wieczna prawosławna) i Batthyaneum – biblioteka, w której znajdują się rzadkie manuskrypty, zbudowana w 1794.

Katedra św. Michała

Pierwszą świątynią na miejscu dzisiejszej katedry była murowana rotunda wzniesiona zapewne w X w. Ta została zastąpiona w XI w. przez murowaną romańską bazylikę, która została zniszczona podczas najazdu mongolskiego w 1241. Po tej katastrofie, w drugiej połowie XIII w. zbudowano obecną, późnoromańską (z elementami gotyku) katedrę. W XIV w. dokonano jej pierwszej przebudowy, wznoszono też jeszcze wieżę (ukończoną ostatecznie w XVII w.) oraz niewielki szczyt fasady zachodniej (XVIII w.). W XVI i XVII w. katedra znajdowała się w rękach protestanckich (katolicy odzyskali ją po pokoju karłowickim).

Katedra jest jednym z najcenniejszych zabytków Siedmiogrodu. Została zbudowana na planie krzyża łacińskiego, jako trójnawowa bazylika z transeptem. Zachodnia fasada posiada tylko jedną wieżę, południową (północnej nie wybudowano). Od północy przylega do kościoła renesansowa kaplica Lazoniusa z początku XVI w. Patrona świątyni przedstawia płaskorzeźba romańska z XIII w. W południowej nawie świątyni znajdują się groby przedstawicieli wybitnego węgierskiego rodu Hunyadych, m.in. Jana Hunyadyego, wojewody siedmiogrodzkiego, oraz jego syna Władysława. W kaplicy Królewskiej znajdują się nagrobki Izabeli, córki Zygmunta Starego, oraz jej syna Jana Zygmunta Zapolyi, księcia siedmiogrodzkiego.

Oxytocin Receptor Gene, Socioeconomic Status and Childhood Obesity
Recent work by UCSF researchers in the Division of Developmental Medicine suggests that children raised in low socioeconomic status environments who have a genetic variant for the oxcytocin receptor may be at increased risk for childhood obesity.
In a paper published in JAMA Pediatrics, the researchers described how body weight was more likely to be affected either positively or negatively by socioeconomic status (SES) in children with the A form (allele) of the oxytocin receptor gene. Compared to children with the G allele, who had moderate rates of obesity irrespective of SES, children with the A form were much more likely to be obese if they were of low SES but much less likely to be obese if their SES was high.
"As a field, we have thought of children as either "vulnerable" or "resilient" to socioeconomic conditions," said Division Chief Tom Boyce, MD. "But this work indicates that it may be more helpful and informative to consider the relative sensitivity of kids to their socioeconomic environment."
The findings fit into an increasingly popular theory of differential neurobiological susceptibility, which holds that some individuals are more sensitive than others to both positive and negative environmental factors.
Childhood obesity currently affects almost 1 in 5 children in the United States, putting them at risk for physical, social, and psychological problems as they age. Low socioeconomic status has a longstanding and strong association with obesity risk across the lifetime, one that may occur through its relation to factors such as lower birth weight, lack of access to health care, limited availability of healthy foods and places to exercise, and increased exposure to environmental stresses such as noise, crowding, toxins and violence.
The paper's lead author, Nicole Bush, PhD, who is associate director for research for the division, became interested in how genetics might confer individual differences in responses to socioeconomic adversity during her postdoctoral studies at UCSF and UC Berkeley. Oxytocin has been shown to promote antistress physiological responses and is also associated with appetite and weight in both animal models and studies with human adults. This study, funded through Bush's participation in the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Health & Society Scholars Program, is among the first to look at the role of the oxytocin receptor gene in child obesity, said Bush.
Participants were drawn from the Peers and Wellness Study (PAWS) led by Dr. Boyce, a larger, ongoing project that enlisted families from San Francisco Bay Area public school classrooms to examine the effects of social status on health. Families were assessed during the children's kindergarten year (2003-2005) and again during middle school (2009-11). Children's physical data was collected through anthropometric measures (body mass index and triceps skin fold), DNA was collected via saliva samples, and family socioeconomic status was measured with questionnaires. A total of 186 socioeconomically and racially/ethnically diverse children, approximately equally divided between males and females, were included in the study.
"Socioeconomic status is powerfully linked to so many risk factors for poor health. Studies like this can help us understand who is more at risk for the association between low socioeconomic status and obesity and point to opportunities for intervention," said Bush.

Q: Cannot connect to sharepoint site from visual studio 2010 I have SharePoint 2010 foundation and Visual Studio 2010 on my desktop. SharePoint Server 2010 is installed in a virtual machine in the server machine. I have added myself as administrator of the VM, added myself as farm administrator and provided DB Owner access to SharePoint Content DB.
I need to create a SharePoint 2010 Empty SharePoint Project through VS 2010 and giving the url of the sharepoint server(virtual machine) in the box 'What local site do you want to use for debugging?'- 'http://serappsp/'  and selected to deploy as a farm solution. When i click 'Validate' the error prompted is : 'Cannot connect to the SharePoint site: 'http://serappsp/'. Make sure that the Site URL is valid, that the SharePoint site is running on the local computer, and that the current user as the necessary permissions to access the site.'

A: You are trying to make a Farm Solution where as your Visual Studio is on a different Machine. You need to install and work on Visual Studio on the same virtual machine where SharePoint is installed.

A: Came across this question while investigating same issue. Error message suggests a site issue but resolved it by giving myself permissions to the SP__Content database in sql server.

A: If you want to program for SharePoint from another machine, you must use Client Object Model. Try to instantiate the site like this:
string siteUrl = "http://MyServer/sites/MySiteCollection";

ClientContext clientContext = new ClientContext(siteUrl);
Web oWebsite = clientContext.Web;

This morning because of daylight savings time we gained an hour that we lost in the spring. On Tuesday from 7 am to 8 pm you have a chance to take back your township by a vote for Shirley Havens for township treasurer. Make the change for the betterment of your township.
I received several mailings yesterday, one (1) about my opponent and another card with all the reasons Sue Boss should not be voted in. I read both very carefully and you should too.
The reason I decided to run for township treasurer, was I attended the meeting when Sue Boss read a letter aloud to a room full of taxpayers, voters and residents that was not professional as a representative of the community. The card tells of the experience, and accomplishments Sue has made in the township. Did you honestly think the residents were going to allow the board to make the decision not to have access to the lakes. I know it has been said that the issue of the road ends is done, but I guarantee if Sue Boss is re-elected it will be an issue again. I think instead of name-calling Sue should have apologized to the residents who by-the-way, you represent and work for.
Not all of the residents are lakefront owners and you can call us backlotters (by the way my spellcheck does not recognize this word), rednecks and hillbillies but we all have worked hard for what we have.
Most of the township residents, I have been talking to, moved here after they retired because of the lakes, fishing, hunting and most have been coming north for years. So why shouldn't they have access to what is available for recreation and for them to enjoy.
After a neighbor was questioned when he dropped off his absentee ballot about my experience I responded with why didn't Sue Boss ask me.
I am not Humpty-Dumpty who fell off the wall or Chicken Little that fell from the sky I am a voter, taxpayer and resident. I am computer savvy, am able to add 2 and 2 and make it 4. All kidding aside I do have experience in banking, computers, people skills and office management and I would not have put my name on a political ballot unless I thought I was capable of doing the job! This is my first venture into politics other than school politics and fraternal politics but it seems to be the same. It all depends on you the voter!
Bob Dixon and I will be at the polls on Tuesday, if you have questions or you want to see who we are stop by and say hello.
TIME FOR A CHANGE IN BEARL LAKE TOWNSHIP!!! IT IS ALL UP TO YOU THE VOTERS!!!

The Critic #01 (The Lifted Brow 22)
This text was first published in April-May 2014, in The Lifted Brow 22.
1. IN WHICH EPISTEMOLOGY IS DISCUSSED
The Critic always saw theatre from the first-person point of view, because there was no other way. Perhaps because, as a woman, she never felt she was able to assume the universal point of view. The idea of it – that she could see the world unmarred by who she was – felt impossible. The Critic saw beautiful, young women on stage, often in various states of undress, and could see that these were erotic stage images, but not for her. She saw hysterical women, men who would sooner commit suicide than admit an error, she saw manly banter and regret, she saw many things the meaning of which she knew, but did not feel. Theatre being theatre, she also saw many extremely rich people treat servants or people of colour badly, while they themselves revelled in relatively trivial problems, and sometimes thought about how those servants or people of colour represented her ancestors more than the protagonists, how the story of her people was only ever told on the margins. The Critic, in other words, always knew that the theatre was not meant for her, that her eyes were not the bull's eye of the audience target, even when the message arrived. Even when she was greatly moved.
Why did the Critic like theatre, then? Why did she make it her life to see theatre three, four, five, sometimes even ten times a week, if she felt like an intruder? Because the Critic, like many – perhaps most – women, felt like an intruder in most discursive social situations already, and had become accustomed to feeling like she was sitting slightly to the left and down in the audience – a feeling that did not disappear in those prestigious, central seats. Sometimes she was elated, or crushed, sometimes her life changed while sitting in those seats; but it was an expected gift, because she had not been the target audience, because the magic that was done on her was done almost by accident.
It is said that privilege is marked by assuming that your views are representative of everyone's. Speaking with various male critics after shows, ready to judge always slightly faster, the Critic often asked: "Why are you so sure that your opinion is the right one?" It was a strange question to many. "I know what I like," they sometimes answered, tautology imperceptible to them.
"But you aren't everyone", the Critic might offer, uselessly, because in a certain sense they were everyone: they were the bull's eye, the eye that mattered, the eye to which the art was offered. Oh, the Critic was able to pontificate with the best, argue her opinions, be sometimes insistently praising, sometimes cruelly harsh, but it was qualified intellectual bravado, always aware of where fact ended and personal opinion began.
It was with great relief that the Critic found Nataša Govedić, European dramaturg and performance critic, writing: "I think that the critic-as-a-simple-observer has never existed. The critic is always biased, has always held values, ideology if you prefer – and there doesn't exist, not has ever existed, a neutral critic. Therefore, it is only fair to honestly admit which values we uphold, and why we believe in certain processes, and why we participiate in them."
It is paradoxical, then, that the Critic had studiously avoided having opinions on supposedly 'minority' arts, such as Melbourne's Midsumma Festival of LGBT arts, considering it and her mismatched. They were, of course, but less than feared. The queer audience arrived to the theatres with the same layered thinking, palpably so – everywhere around her the Critic could feel a suspicious, reserved energy of distantiation, of mistrust. 'Is this work going to hurt me, or will it finally say something I can agree with?' To the extent to which the audience mood can read, this is what the Midsumma audience seemed to be saying.

Nursing and midwifery students in Worcestershire are receiving a 'gold standard' induction to their training placements thanks to a pioneering new scheme in Worcestershire hospitals.
The practice placement team at Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust have received glowing reviews for the specialist induction process they offer to new nursing and midwifery students starting their placements in the county's three acute hospitals (Alexandra Hospital, Redditch; Kidderminster Hospital and Treatment Centre; and Worcestershire Royal Hospital).
The team's induction process was described as the 'gold standard' after they presented at a regional conference on best practice. Health Education West Midlands - the body who oversee the training of student nurses and midwives in the region - have also shared the team's practice with the Learning Education Training Committee.
The inductionprocess has also received a wide range of positive feedback from the students themselves, who all fill out a review of the process upon completion.
The bespoke experience for both nursing and midwifery students is separate to the formal trust induction which all staff must undertake and prepares the students for their practice placements on wards and departments around the county.
Student midwives and student nurses specialising in either adults or children receive the tailored induction from the practice placement team. The process enhances the development of the training relationship between the student and placement team which helps students progress in their placement.
One key area the induction process has clarified for students is the information link between their University and the Trust, allowing them to receive integrated messages about their course and their placements.

Sinking the Pirates - by Dan Liebman
12 August, 2008 11:25 AM
Walking the streets of Manhattan Aug. 9 past the $5 watches, $10 framed prints, and $20 purses, we saw two young men selling compact discs of recently released music.
Judging by the prices, and their low overhead storefront, it was highly possible their inventory did not come from music publishers.
Several years ago, a CNN/USA TODAY/Gallup Poll showed about 17% of adults with Internet access at work, home, or school had downloaded music. That number has surely risen. Countless CDs are being copied on burners. Sites to download music prosper. The movie and video-game industries are seeing similar trends.
So, too, is Thoroughbred racing.
Countless industries are experiencing the pirating of their products, all made possible because of the Internet. Thoroughbred racing has no idea how many people are pirating signals of races and accepting wagers on them.
"Let's just say it is very substantial," said Eugene Christiansen, the head of Christiansen Capital Advisors, a research and advisory firm on the leisure and entertainment industry, particularly as it pertains to gaming and wagering.
Tens of millions?
"No, hundreds of millions," Christiansen said.
While negotiations over the split of handle from advance deposit wagering platforms continue between racetracks and horsemen's groups—many of the latter using the new Thoroughbred Horsemen's Group to bargain for them—potentially hundreds of millions of dollars are being wagered with none returned to the industry to help racetracks put on the show and help horsemen through additional purse monies.
The reason the pirates, and also legal off-shore wagering outlets exist, Christiansen said, is because of demand from high-volume players.
"The underlying reason is the consumer price of betting through state-licensed pari-mutuel facilities is substantially higher than cost-conscious players can get elsewhere, so that underlying circumstance is an incentive for low-cost suppliers to stay in the market," he said. "An indirect by-product is the signal piracy."
Dysfunction happens, Christiansen said, because, "The industry uses a higher cost when a lower cost is available. That goes against every principle of the way a market operates and is anti-consumer."
Racetracks and ADWs must charge more because of takeout, purses, and overhead, while off-shore bookmakers and pirates can offer substantial rebates to players.
An interesting aside, said Chris Scherf, executive vice president of the Thoroughbred Racing Association, is that successful players often get cut off by the rebate shops.
"Both in sports betting and horse racing, if you are winning consistently, they quit taking your bets," Scherf said.
Of more concern to him than piracy, Scherf said, is the impact the offshore bookmakers have had in shifting those wagering on racing to wagering on sports and online poker.
"We have lost business to that," he said.
Many racetracks now offer rewards programs similar to those used for many years by casinos. These are no different than earning frequent flier miles, rewards from a charge card, or discounts given to loyal shoppers by nearly every major retailer. Racetracks, however, are unable to match the percentage of handle rebated to high-volume players, forcing many of them to begin playing offshore. In fact, many are recruited by the bookmaking shops.
On Aug. 4, regulators from 13 states—hopefully soon to be joined by others—announced they will begin requiring offshore wagering outlets and secondary pari-mutuel operations to be certified by the Association of Racing Commissioners International before they can wager into pools. The target date is Jan. 1, 2010.
It is important for racing authorities to know with whom they are doing business, and this is a giant step forward in that direction.
This action comes after the closing earlier this year of the offshore rebate shop International Racing Group, which was owned by Youbet.com. IRG was closed following a federal and state investigation into its customers and operations alleging possible illegal activities.
Perhaps the industry cannot stop piracy, but it can stop some pirates.

Research out of the US claims second-born children are more likely to misbehave, sometimes with severe consequences.
Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) economist Joseph Doyle's research suggests the "curse of the second-born child" could be true.
Prof Doyle and his colleagues collected data from thousands of sets of brothers in both the US and Europe that proved second-borns, particularly boys, are more inclined to be rebellious.
Second-born children are 25 to 40 percent more likely to get into trouble at school or with the law than their older siblings.
The actions of children can be attributed to the parenting styles that accompany birth order, Prof Doyle told NPR.
First-born children often get undivided attention from their parents, while their younger siblings have to share. The family dynamic can also change as the family grows.
"The firstborn has role models, who are adults. And the second, later-born children have role models who are slightly irrational two-year-olds, you know, their older siblings.
"Both the parental investments are different, and the sibling influences probably contribute to these differences we see in the labour market and what we find in delinquency. It's just very difficult to separate those two things because they happen at the same time."
It doesn't mean that second-born children are destined to live a life or crime and mischief - just that birth order may play a bigger role than first thought.
