A brief history of Taiko
By Jaron Foote on December 8, 2016 Features
The origin of taiko drum dates back as early as the 6th century CE, with archaeological evidence showing that the drums were in use during the late Kofun period. Historical records suggest they were introduced to Japan through Korean and Chinese cultural influences and have been used for a range of purposes including theatrical, military, communication and religious ceremonies.
The mythological origin is said to have resulted from Amaterasu, the goddess of the Sun, sealing herself in a cave out of anger, thus casting the world into darkness. The goddess of dawn lured her from the cave by dancing frenetically upon a huge overturned sake barrel, the rythm of her feet was so lively that it prompted Amaterasu to peak from her hiding place before slowly emerging and restoring light to the world.
Traditionally taiko have played a large part in Japanese theatre; in kabuki plays the dramatic atmosphere that the drumming generates adds to the sense of tension in scenes. In noh theatre a wide range of rythmic drum patterns are employed during performances. They also feature in many buddhist ritual dances and local festivals throughout Japan.
Taiko are generally constructed from the Japanese keyaki tree – a highly valued wood often used for furniture and cultivating bonsai.In common use, taiko often refers to the performance itself (kumi daiko) – rather than an individual drum. This ensemble style drumming performance was developed in the 1950s and gained enormous popularity worldwide due to the high energy levels, precision and climactic beats produced by performers.
Quality taiko drums are made from highly valuable keyaki wood – the same tree as bonsai
The timber is used to construct the hollow body then cow-hide drum heads are attached to each end. These large drums resembling a large wine barrel are called byou-uchi-daiko or the more common nagado–daiko. Although some may be built using a single piece of costly keyaki wood, they can also be made using actual wine barrels.
Often an o-daiko (large drum) is featured in taiko performances, these drums are typically as large as 180cm in diameter and can be so heavy they are rarely shifted from their location – you may often see these at shrines and temples.
Taiko come in several varieties and are categorised by both their construction method and intended purpose. A drum intended for particular Buddhist ceremonies may be constructed in much the same way as other byou-uchi-daiko, hower due to its intended purpose it would have a unique classification of its own – in this case miya-daiko.
Typically the different types of drum fill a different roll within the taiko performance; chu-daiko are the most common and provide the rythm for the group; shime-daiko – which are a smaller drum often used in solo performances – are used for setting tempo; and o-daiko provide the pulse. Kakegoe or shouts are also a common feature of taiko and provide encouragement and cues amongst performers as well as adding extra energy to the overall experience.
As well as the power and rhythm of taiko, a great deal of the appreciation for the art can be gleaned from the silence between drumstrikes and the kata of the performers (posture, precision and movements) much the same as martial arts.
"Taiko no Tatsujin" is a popular arcade game in Japan. A drum simulating the taiko is played in time with music – difficulties range from keeping a simple rythm to frenetic beating! Stop in Sapporo or Tokyo and try it for yourself!

Q: How to access state during transitions in Akka FSM I am using Akka FSM for handling state in my Actor. I want some actions to be performed every time a transition to a certain state occurs, no matter which state the transition was made from. After reading the docs, I felt certain that this could be resolved like this:
onTransition({
  case (_, ToState) => performAction(stateData)
})

...

when(FromState){
  case "changestate" => goto(ToState) using NewStateData
}

However, when the transition occurs, stateData is not yet updated to NewStateData.
What is the recommended way to perform actions on entering a certain state?

A: Thanks for bringing this to my attention, that was indeed an oversight, which I fixed immediately (see the ticket). Unfortunately there is not much you can do (apart from merging in the tiny patch yourself) until 1.3 is out, which should be next week; if you are particularly impatient, I would appreciate if you could try out RC2 with the fix which will be released this week.

Ban all schools? That's a dangerous thought
The Earth can cope with global warming, schools should be banned and we should learn to love bacteria. These are among the dangerous ideas revealed by a poll of leading thinkers.
John Brockman, the New York-based literary agent and publisher of The Edge website posed the question: what is your dangerous idea? in reference to a controversial book by the philosopher Daniel Dennett that argued that Darwinism was a universal acid that ate through virtually all traditional beliefs.
Brockman received 116 responses to his challenge from Nobel laureates, futurists and creative thinkers. These were among them:
The evolution of evil
When most people think of stalkers, rapists, and murderers, they imagine crazed, drooling monsters with maniacal Charles Manson-like eyes. The calm, normal-looking image staring back at you from the bathroom mirror reflects a truer representation.
The danger comes from people who refuse to recognize that there are dark sides of human nature that cannot be wished away by attributing them to the modern ills of culture, poverty, pathology or exposure to media violence.
The danger comes from failing to gaze into the mirror and come to grips with the capacity for evil in all of us.
David Buss, Psychologist, University of Texas, Austin
Ban all schools? That's a dangerous thought [1]
Telegraph.co.uk [3]
[ Sat. Dec. 31. 2005 ]
Our planet is not in peril
Environmental crises are a fundamental part of the history of the earth: there have been dramatic temperature excursions, severe glaciations, vast asteroid and comet impacts. Yet the earth is still here, unscathed. And yet many people in the various green movements feel compelled to add on the notion that the planet is in crisis, or doomed; that all life on earth is threatened. The most important thing about environmental change is that it hurts people; the basis of our response should be human solidarity. The planet will take care of itself.
Oliver Morton, Chief news and features editor at Nature
Let's stop beating Basil's car
Basil Fawlty, television's hotelier from hell, was at the end of his tether when his car broke down. He seized a branch and set about thrashing the car within an inch of its life. Of course we laugh at his irrationality. Instead of beating the car, we would investigate the problem. Is the carburettor flooded? Has it run out of petrol?
Why do we not react in the same way to a defective man: a murderer, say, or a rapist? Why don't we laugh at a judge who punishes a criminal, just as heartily as we laugh at Fawlty?
Isn't the murderer just a machine with a defective component? Or a defective upbringing? Defective genes? Why do we vent hatred on murderers when we should regard them as faulty units that need fixing or replacing? We shall grow out of this and learn to laugh at it, just as we laugh at Fawlty.
Richard Dawkins, Evolutionary biologist, Oxford University
Biotechnology will be domesticated in 50 years
This means cheap tools and do-it-yourself kits for gardeners to design roses, and for animal-breeders to design lizards and snakes. It means biotech games for children, like computer games but with real eggs and seeds.
There are two dangers. First, smart kids and malicious grown-ups will find ways to convert biotech tools to the manufacture of lethal microbes.
Second, ambitious parents will find ways to apply the tools to the genetic modification of babies.
The unanswered question is, whether we can regulate domesticated biotechnology so that it can be applied to animals and vegetables but not to microbes and humans.
Freeman Dyson, Physicist, Institute of Advanced Study
Bacteria are us
Our sensibilities, our perceptions that register through our sense organ cells evolved directly from our bacterial ancestors. Yet our culture's terminology about bacteria is that of warfare: they are germs to be destroyed.
We load our soaps with anti-bacterials; stomach ulcers are now agreed to be caused by bacterial infection. Even if some admit the existence of "good" bacteria in soil or probiotic food, few of us tolerate the dangerous notion that human sperm tails and sensitive cells of nasal passages lined with waving cilia are former bacteria.
If this idea becomes widespread it follows that we humans must agree that, even before our evolution as animals, we have tried to kill our ancestors. Again, we have seen the enemy and, as usual, it is us. Social interactions of sensitive bacteria, then, not God, made us who were are.
Lynn Margulis, Biologist, University of Massachusetts, Amherst
The posterior probability of any particular God is small
You can't in any logical system I understand disprove the existence of God, or prove it for that matter. But in the probability calculus I use, He is very improbable.
Philip Anderson, Princeton University, Nobel laureate
Science must destroy religion
Our fear of provoking religious hatred has rendered us incapable of criticising ideas that are now patently absurd and increasingly maladaptive. It has also obliged us to lie to ourselves about the compatibility between religious faith and scientific rationality.
In the spirit of religious tolerance, most scientists keep silent when they should be blasting the hideous fantasies of a prior age with all the facts at their disposal.
Sam Harris, University of California, Los Angeles
Science encourages religion in the long run (and vice versa)
Ever since Edward Gibbon's Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, scientists and secularly-minded scholars have been predicting the ultimate demise of religion.
But, if anything, religious fervour is increasing across the world. An underlying reason is that science treats humans and intentions only as incidental elements in the universe, whereas for religion they are central.
Science is not well-suited to deal with people's existential anxieties, including death, deception, loneliness or longing for love or justice. It cannot tell us what we ought to do, only what we can do.
Religion thrives because it addresses people's deepest emotional yearnings.
Scott Atran, Anthropologist, University of Michigan
School is bad for children
Schools are structured today in much the same way as they have been for hundreds of years. Schools should simply cease to exist as we know them.
The Government needs to get out of the education business and stop thinking it knows what children should know and then testing them constantly to see if they regurgitate whatever they have been spoon-fed.
We need to stop producing a nation of stressed-out students who learn how to please the teacher instead of pleasing themselves.
We need to produce adults who love learning, not adults who avoid all learning because it reminds them of the horrors of school.
We need to stop thinking that all children need to learn the same stuff. We need to create adults who can think for themselves.
Call school off. Turn them into apartments.
Roger Schank, Chief learning officer, Trump University
Free will is exercised unconsciously
By observing another person's brain activity, one can predict what someone is going to do before he is aware that he has made the decision to do it.
This finding has caused -philosophers to ask: if the choice is determined in the brain unconsciously before we decide to act, where is free will?
Are these choices predetermined? Is our experience of freely willing our actions an illusion, a rationalisation after the fact? Is one to be held responsible for decisions that are made without conscious awareness?
Eric Kandel, Columbia University, Nobel laureate
Science may be 'running out of control'
Public opinion surveys (at least in the UK) reveal a generally positive attitude to science.
However, this is coupled with widespread worry that science may be "running out of control".
Whether this idea is true or false, it's an exceedingly dangerous one because it engenders pessimism, and de-motivates efforts to secure a safer and fairer world.
The future will best be safeguarded - and science has the best chance of being applied optimally - through the efforts of people who are less fatalistic.
Lord Rees, President, the Royal Society
Revealing the genetic basis of personality and behaviour will create societal conflicts
We attribute behaviours in other species to genes but when it comes to humans we seem to like the notion that we are all created equal, that each child is a "blank slate".
But it will inevitably be revealed that there are strong genetic components associated with most aspects of human existence, including personality sub-types, language capabilities, mechanical abilities, intelligence, sexual activities and preferences, intuitive thinking, quality of memory, willpower, temperament, athletic abilities, and so on.
The danger rests with what we already know: that we are not all created equal.

Winter Clipart
Wintertime - the season with the most fun of all! In honor of winter and all of its glory, we bring you this Winter clipart.
Winter is when we celebrate the holidays and see a big change of scenery. The snow falls, the winds rush in, the landscape turns white, and it is fun to stay inside and take care of business we've been putting off all year long.
It's great fun to live in a land where there are four seasons. The year is an endless source of variety, with snowflakes falling, the snow blanketing the ground and roofs and mountains and trees, and then eventually it melts and we are left with the return of life to frozen lands. The next year, the cycle begins anew, and it is an important day when the first snowflake falls again.
So, in honor of winter, we present to you this hand-picked collection of beautiful winter scenes, arranged for your delectation and enjoyment, whether it be during winter itself or during the hot months when winter still is only a dream away.

'Tangled' Clipart
'Tangled' is the 2010 Walt Disney Animation Studios adaptation of the 'Rapunzel' tale - you know, the girl with the long, golden hair who is locked in a tower. In 'Tangled, Rapunzel is rescued by Flynn Rider, a wastrel and a rogue who has a heart of gold. Mandy Moore voices Rapunzel, and Zachary Levi does the voice of Flynn. There also, of course, is a villainess, and that is Mother Gothel, voiced by Donna Murphy.

Snow White Clipart
Everybody loves 'Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.' 'Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs' was Walt Disney's breakthrough, the first animated feature film that really captured the public's imagination. It also was an oasis of color in a sea of black-and-white films. Depression-era audiences loved it.
'Snow White' comes from ancient folklore. The Grimm Brothers wrote it down, but it existed long before them. It told the tale of an innocent but beautiful young girl who is envied by an older Queen who resents the young woman stealing her thunder.
The Queen connives to give the young girl a poisoned apple. Fortunately, there is a prince, Prince Charming, who loves Snow White. The Evil Queen, who loves to talk to her Magic Mirror and ask it who is the fairest of them all, gets her just desserts.

Litany for Wound and Bloom by Judith H. Montgomery
By Mom Egg Review on January 30, 2019 Book Reviews
Review by Julie L. Moore
Litany for Wound and Bloom, the fourth collection of poems by Oregon Book Award winner Judith H. Montgomery, is like "Another Kind of Prayer" (one of her poem's titles), as it both raises excruciating questions—"If in the beginning was the Word then what / of ending— stutter? then silence?"—as well as expresses women's pain and praise in exquisite language (45). As a follow-up to her previously acclaimed work, Litany for Wound and Bloom incisively explores themes related to infertility and motherhood, oppression women face, and old age, all with painstaking precision.
Organized into three sections, the first is aptly titled, "(Womb)," which poignantly reveals the speaker's agony with infertility as well as her insightful contemplations about pregnancy. For instance, "D & C" concerns the painful paradox that sometimes accompanies fertility: "To bloom, she understands, / first she must be wounded" (5). Because the speakers in these poems often are "caught / between bloom and prune" ("Cicatricula" 6), it is fitting that "Yet Praise the Scar," asks us to "[c]onsider how, breached by blade / or flame, the body rushes to repair, / quick-clot the hurt" (12). Montgomery is never satisfied with mere cleverness or astute conceit; she also mines metaphysical meaning in poems such as "Expectant: II," which reinterprets John 1:1 in the striking voice of the Mother Mary:
I am what I am become—
the word made flesh,
preparing to spill forth.
Unfurling each rib, I enter
hallow, from hollow . . . . (13)
Such poems demonstrate Montgomery's originality with lineation and lyrical language that travel the often inhospitable topography of womanhood.
In addition, Montgomery understands how to transition well between sections. The last line of "B-Word," also the last poem in section one, declares, "All words uncoil to bloom in the womb of the poem" (18), leading us seamlessly into "(Word)," the second section. This opens with another discursive poem—"Having Vanished"—about John 1:1. After the annunciation, when "[e]ach molecule of air shines" and "a skirt of shimmer / flicks off dust-dried walls," Mary realizes "[h]er womb, / no longer hers" presents an "ambiguous gift: crossed / in cords of thorn" (23). Simply put, the masterful assonance and consonance in this poem—"shines" and "shimmer"; "skirt," "flicks," and "gift"; and "crossed," "cords," and "thorn"—epitomize the strength of Montgomery's musicality and her impressive originality.
Likewise, Montgomery is masterful as she depicts other women—both in myth and in reality—bound by comparable thorny vines. Thus, by the time we readers encounter "Breast: Still," one of several moving ekphrastic poems, we then poignantly experience with the survivor of a mastectomy how beauty can mysteriously flourish amid its own loss:
A sharp needle's mended loss
across her rib—still
she summons us to see
beyond absent beauty
to bloom of lip,
to pulse of nectar at her throat—
to all that speaks, and lives. (44)
Finally, Montgomery shifts her focus in the final section to "(Witness)." Here, we find "Follow-Through," where the speaker's babies, now school age, scare her since it's possible they "rehearse for days" to throw grenades "into some other sons' makeshift shed / or trench" (53-54). "Simmer" then ruminates on actual wars, as the speaker realizes "how fear deforms object. Subject. How it / twists the blessing of stout wire tight about / the most delicate of human parts" (62). This stunning reversal—blessing yielding torture—gets extended in the poem "A Blessing," when it explores how paradox can wind so tightly around a relationship, it snaps. In this poem—one of the most harrowing and brave in the collection—we learn
Her job
is to sever. Us from our son.
Our son from home. To assign
custody, the legal keeping
of this child, over to the State. (57)
Because of Montgomery's earlier poems depicting the travails of infertility, we now endure, in agonizing ways, how the promise of fertility turns against itself. Indeed, the poet is witness, and a helpless one at that, like the voice in "Send," the book's last poem that shows South Korean children on a ferry snapping pictures of each other on their cell phones as they drown. These last words emphasize such powerlessness:
I cannot send to erase this boy's nape, efface
the dim wrist
of that girl, each image a litany
of witness: here am I. Remember me. Us. (71)
What a gorgeous and gut-wrenching book Montgomery has composed. Indeed, it is a litany of wound and bloom, stutter and silence, magnificent in its paradoxical execution.

Recently, while looking through some posts in various Facebook groups I belong to, I came across an interesting and unexpected post written by a fellow food allergy mom. She was tired of reading about success stories when it comes to Oral Immunotherapy, or OIT. My initial thought was, wow, this mom is going to get a lot of negative feedback about her post. However, a second later my thought changed to me too! I am also tired of hearing all of the success stories, not because of jealousy, but because it is not an option for everyone. For our family, it does not feel like the right choice. For some insurance won't cover the procedures, for others, it is not offered by their doctors.

Q: AngFire add field in createuser() Is there a way to add the field displayName when I create the user?
For example I'm working on this :
Signup(email: string, password: string, displayName: string) {
    this.angFire.auth.createUser({
      email: email,
      password: password,
      displayName: displayName
    }).catch(
      (err) => {
        console.log(er.....

But I had an error on displayName:
Argument of type '{ email: string; password: string; displayName: string; }' is not assignable to parameter of type 'EmailPasswordCredentials'. Object literal may only specify known properties, and 'displayName' does not exist in type 'EmailPasswordCredentials'.

I'm using Firebase in ionic 2, angular2. If I put only email and password it works.
UPDATE
Could this works? Inside Signup function, after create the user, write this ?
 firebase.auth().onAuthStateChanged((user) => {
      if (user) {
        let user1 = firebase.auth().currentUser;
        if (user != null) {
          user1.displayName = displayName;
        }
      } else {
        console.log('no user');
      }
    });

UPDATE
Can't it's just in read mode

Editorial: Rochon's public relations campaign headed south
Allison Latini/The Ithacan
With the chant "Tom Rochon: No confidence" ringing through the air at Ithaca College, as well as a number of documents detailing grievances against him being released by faculty and students alike, President Rochon has been forced to defend himself with a strategic public relations campaign. In just the last couple of weeks, Rochon has been featured in interviews with The Ithacan, the Ithaca Journal and the Ithaca Voice and has even published an op-ed in The Chronicle of Higher Education. Yet, despite all of these opportunities, Rochon seems to be digging himself deeper into a hole of contradictions and continues to avoid the very issues that put him on the defensive in the first place.
It is not an unprecedented practice for Rochon to shift accountability onto another person or group in times of distress, as was made evident by the sudden creation of a chief diversity officer position to front for the administration on race issues in the midst of high-profile protests. This same act of putting responsibility onto someone else appeared again in Rochon's interview with the Ithaca Journal, in which he blamed other constituencies, particularly faculty, for the reinforcement and perpetuation of the inequitable campus climate, stating how there are "instances of faculty either making insensitive comments or kind of standing by not seeming to intervene effectively in the classroom when students make comments to other students." He goes on to assert the same complicity among students and staff as well, instead of addressing his role in creating this climate of insensitivity.
But if Rochon does hold faculty behavior responsible for some aspects of the campus' negative racial climate, his newly developed administrative action plan fails to adequately address the need for faculty and classroom education as a necessary avenue for improvement, only including a provision of optional diversity training for faculty members, which is hardly enough.
In terms of public relations, it serves Rochon well to shift reasonable blame onto faculty and other constituencies for the current racial climate. But his contradictory recognition of this fault while refusing to address it with real determination seriously undermines his credibility as an able leader and problem-solver.
His public avoidance of the doubts surrounding his credibility as an able leader, though faculty have made it clear they are dissatisfied with his entire top-down administrative methods, gives rise to even more concerns. Rochon chooses to focus on the issue of race, as he does in his op-ed in The Chronicle of Higher Education, titled "Why Embattled Leaders Should Be Stepping Up, Not Stepping Down." In "stepping up," Rochon is referring to how administrators like himself should be stepping up to the "opportunity to bring a commitment to inclusion into fuller alignment with a longstanding commitment to diversity."
Rochon likely attaches his public relations campaign almost exclusively to the race issues on campus because this is what stemmed student dissatisfaction with his presidency, and the reality is he probably feels much less threatened by students than he does other constituencies dissenting against him, such as the faculty, who in their classes and in a series of letters published by The Ithacan, have detailed each and every grievance they have against Rochon's top-down approach to leading the college.
And now, even students and alumni have joined in on making others aware of these grievances. Dominick Recckio, current student body president, along with the student body presidents of the last nine years and one student trustee, explained these grievances in an open letter published in this week's issue of The Ithacan. There is no shortage of posts on social media from other students that bring up these issues as well.
Rochon should not be ignoring these concerns, and instead should be seeking out ways to collaborate with the faculty and students protesting his presidency. His avoidance of their grievances only furthers the disconnect, when the administration should be structuring avenues for conversation and sharing of power in decision-making, to alleviate the top-bottom approach to leadership that has been plaguing this campus.
However, Rochon continues to distance himself from these criticisms and focus on issues regarding the racial climate because within these problems, he sees an opportunity to help himself. He can take the campus protests against the racial tensions at the college and spin them to demonstrate the college's encouragement of activism and freedom of speech, as he did quite explicitly at the Open House event.
In issues of racism, it is not difficult for him to pass on responsibility to someone else through the creation of new administrative positions. In discussions of campus climate, it is not difficult for him to remove himself from accountability by placing fault on the "insensitive comments" made by faculty and students.
But he cannot avoid being accountable for the way in which he leads this college and makes administrative decisions any longer. He cannot dismiss his responsibility in creating a culture of fear at the college through his top-down, deeply hierarchical and problematic leadership tactics, which continue to be present in his public relations strategies as he disregards faculty and student voices.
If Rochon has any chance of winning the respect and approval of the campus community members currently dissenting against him, he must stop ignoring the comprehensive list of grievances faculty, students and alumni have issued against him. He must recognize, both personally and publicly, that the current campus racial climate is not the only issue he needs to address and begin to address the roots of this issue, an important one of which is his leadership.
The editorial published in the Nov. 12 issue of The Ithacan analyzed how different constituencies were beginning to take power for themselves through protests and no confidence votes. At this time, this redistribution of power is critical as it gives us the first glimpse of what shared governance might look like on this campus.
Rochon needs to acknowledge this redistribution. He needs to listen to it. He needs to listen to what his constituents are saying about him, and he needs to make the change this burgeoning form of shared governance is speaking to and make it publicly clear how he is making that change. Only then will his public relations campaign, and his leadership, be effective.

The Friends of Long Creek helped support an SMCC (Southern Maine Community College) campus tour for eleven very eager and extremely well-behaved residents this month. The students met with an admissions officer, took a student-led tour, and enjoyed a delicious meal in the cafeteria. Chef Ogden from the LDYDC (Long Creek Youth Development Center) culinary program made arrangements for himself and the culinary students to take a special tour of the SMCC culinary program facility while we were there.
The vocational training facilities at SMCC impressed our residents most. Their eyes lit up when they entered the massive automotive repair building, where they enjoyed "talking trucks and engines" with an instructor. Another highlight was the in-depth tour we got of the Integrated Manufacturing Technology Program — led by the department head, himself. The precision manufacturing facility at SMCC is beyond amazing.
Thank you to all those who prioritized the college trips, helped make them happen, and went the extra mile to allow all eleven residents to go. The visits were incredibly inspiring for our guys. Most have never been on a college campus before, and there's just no substitute for seeing, listening to, and feeling what it's really like. The students came back excited about applying to college after the SMCC visit.

Schools of social work have put considerable energy into civic engagement and community partnership. Despite the attention paid to the civic mission of the university and/or of the profession, however, very little attention has been paid to the civic education of social work students. It will be argued here that social work education must include discussions about citizenship and democracy, about participating in our communities apart from our work. Service learning, with its emphasis on civic learning and a complementary focus on social justice, provides both a lens and a pedagogy for accomplishing this.


Awards season is finally coming to a close. Now that they're finally out of the way we can stop tuning into them just to understand the eventual memes that come out of the night. That's why everyone watches them anyway right? I would argue, the most important part of the night was whatever outfit Cee Lo Green was wearing. It's incredibly hard to top a head-to-toe gold C3P0 inspired outfit.
As far as awards go, Adele won big by taking home every award she was nominated for, collecting five gold gramophones in total. Or, four and a half if you count the one she broke in half to split with Beyonce. This is the second time Adele has swept her categories she was nominated in, as well as the second time Beyonce has lost record and album of the year despite her critical acclaim. Even though Lemonade was universally loved by critics and fans alike, she still managed to lose to Adele's 25. By 'splitting' her GRAMMY for Album of the Year with Beyonce, Adele tried to make up for yet another awards show snubbing the clear winner.
Together both Knowles sisters stole the show. Beyonce and her baby bump stunned as beaming symbols of warmth and motherhood in a gold-sequined gown, a glittering chain bikini and a headdress; looks some believe were inspired by West African Yoruba deity Oshun, goddess of fertility, motherhood, love and prosperity.
Between Bey's other-worldly performances of "Love Drought" and "Sandcastles" and Solange's win for "Cranes in the Sky," the Knowles sisters proved they don't really need awards to be the night's winners.
Chance the Rapper won big by taking home Best New Artist as well as Best Rap Performance and Best Rap Album. Drake didn't do badly either with Hotline Bling alone picking up two GRAMMYs, one for best song and the other for best performance.
Twenty One Pilots won the award for Best Pop Duo for their song "Stressed Out" and accepted the awards sans pants because of an "agreement" they'd made years ago while watching the awards show in underwear. Ha ha. The whole story seemed to be a bit of a pointless attention grab.
The rest of the night I would compare to watching the 'who gets the awards for Best Sound Editing at the Academy Awards.' Does anyone really care who won Best Engineered Album, Classical? (It was Corigliano: The Ghosts of Versailles, if you do) No offence to any fans of jazz, latin or spoken word albums, but I think we can agree that they aren't the focal point of the show in terms of hollywood glitz and glam and that comes with other categories.
With this year's awards season finally coming to a close, we can look forward to all the great new media of 2017, and the eventual snubs from this year too.

HGV Driver Shortage Reaching Crisis Point in the UK
The logistics sector has warned that a chronic shortage of HGV drivers since Brexit and the COVID-19 lockdown is an 'extreme barrier' to the recovery of the UK economy. Industry associations have said that UK trade is facing a looming crisis for industrial and retail deliveries with a current shortfall of 70,000 drivers. The triple-threat of Brexit halting driver recruitment from the EU, a backlog of at least 30,000 HGV driver tests caused by COVID-19, and recent changes to s

Q: PyCharm PermissionError I have a little problem with pycharm permission. I wanted to run my script but then appears a permission error. I used the package pythonping to ping a proxy address. I can run the script over the terminal in MacOS with the sudo command but i wanted to run everything in PyCharm.

ISIS Unveils Their Wookie Sniper Squad in the Sinai
By Bridget Johnson Dec 31, 2015 8:06 AM ET
A new batch of PR photos from ISIS shows jihadists draped in furry camouflage among the brush on the Sinai peninsula.
ISIS said the group pictured were graduating from a sniper course.
The group claimed responsibility for taking down a Russian airliner over the desert on Halloween, and later published in Dabiq magazine photos of what ISIS says was the bomb — constructed out of a soda can.
Nearly a month later, ISIS attacked a hotel in al-Arish, killing several people by means of a car bomb, a suicide bomber and a gunman.
ISIS has conducted a heavy recruiting campaign this year targeted at Egyptians, arguing that the Muslim Brotherhood hasn't done enough to topple President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi.
They've promised that they have a contingent of suicide bombers and a weapons stockpile to go after "the Egyptian army collaborator with the Zionists in the Sinai."
ISIS said last spring that they're under "huge pressure" to accept new recruits but building "strong organizational structure" is their first priority.

"Welcome to St Peter's International School. Here, we pride ourselves in bringing out the best in every child in a supportive and stimulating environment, which offers academic excellence at all levels. We encourage our pupils to understand their role as Global Citizens, while equipping them with the skills to prepare them for an internationally minded future."
Carla Davies
Head of International Curriculum
Our International Curriculum starts in Year 9, when pupils can choose to study Cambridge IGCSE (International General Certificate of Secondary Education) in a range of subjects, taught over a period of two years.
In Year 11, our pupils continue their international education through the International Baccalaureate Diploma.
The IB Diploma Programme (DP) is an academically challenging and balanced programme of education that prepares students, aged 16 to 19, for success at university and life beyond. It is structured in such a way that develops the intellectual, social, emotional and physical well-being of students.
The International Baccalaureate Organization (known as the IB) offers four high-quality and challenging educational programmes for a worldwide community of schools, aiming to create a better, more peaceful world. It is the IB's objective is to provide students with values, opportunities and experiences that will enable to them to contribute to the global community.
To this end, the IB DP provides the students with physical, intellectual, emotional and ethical development, enabling them to acquire and understand the contents in a more profound way, raising their awareness for the importance of knowledge, in a more comprehensive sense.
The IB DP students study subjects spanning a variety of areas, including the study of at least two languages, traditional academic disciplines including Mathematics, Experimental Sciences, Individuals and Societies and the Arts.
The programme also includes three additional core areas: Theory of Knowledge (TOK), Creativity, Activity, Service (CAS) and Extended Essay (EE).
Students must complete 6 subjects and the 3 core elements (TOK, CAS, EE):
At the start of the DP, Students will choose six subjects; three at Higher Level (HL) and three at Standard Level (SL).
Students will be required to choose one subject from Groups 1, 2 and 5. They will have the option to take one or two subjects from Groups 3 and 4, studying a total of six subjects. In addition, students will attend Theory of Knowledge (TOK), Creativity Activity and Service (CAS) sessions, while also working on the Extended Essay (EE). This way students will have the opportunity to explore some subjects in depth and others from broader perspective.
IB students have access to a more comprehensive education system, although they can further explore subjects from particular disciplines. For example, a more science-oriented student will be challenged to choose a discipline from the Social Sciences group.
Ultimately, students must have achieved a minimum total of 24 out of 45 points in order to complete successfully the DP program.
The subjects currently being offered at St. Peter's School are:
Group 1: Language A - Portuguese A (HL / SL) or English A (HL / SL)
Groups 2: Language B - English B (HL / SL) or Portuguese B (apenas SL)
Group 3: Individuals and Societies: (optar por 1 ou 2)- History (HL / SL)
- Economics (HL / SL)
- Environmental Systems and Societies (apenas SL)
Group 4: Experimental Sciences: (optar por 1 ou 2)
- Biology (HL / SL)
- Chemistry (HL / SL)
- Physics (HL / SL)
- Computer Science (HL / SL)
Group 5: Mathematics:
- Mathematical Studies (apenas SL)
- Mathematics SL
- Mathematics HL
Group 6: Arts
- Visual Arts
IB DP prepares students for effective participation in a rapidly evolving and increasingly global society. It has the recognition and respect of the world's most prestigious universities. The program, which gives equivalence to Portuguese Secondary Education, was designed to incorporate elements of various national educational systems, without being based on any particular system. As such, IB students may transfer from one IB school to another, although the two-year course comprising the IB DP must be completed at the same institution.

Alis ferch Gruffudd ab Ieuan ap Llywelyn Fychan or Alis Wen ("Alice the White";  1520–?) was a 16th-century poet who wrote in Welsh. She wrote several englynion on matters of her personal and family life, and a cywydd aimed at reconciling two men.

Biography
She was the daughter of the "gentleman poet" Gruffudd ab Ieuan ap Llywelyn Fychan ( 1485–1553) of Llannerch and his first wife Sioned ferch Rhisiart ab Hywel of Mostyn (died 1540). Her two sisters, Catrin and Gwen, were also poets.

Alis composed a series of englynion discussing the kind of husband which she wished to marry and commenting on her father's second marriage in old age, and a cywydd to reconcile Dafydd Llwyd Llydan and Grigor y Moch.

She married David Lloyd ap Rhys of Vaynol in about 1540. They had four children:

 John Lloyd (died 1615), registrar of the diocese of St Asaph
 Thomas Lloyd of Vaynol (died 1602)
 William Lloyd, rector of Llanrhaeadr-ym-Mochnant, Llanfechain and Llanwrin, 1590–1600, and canon of St Asaph Cathedral, 1587–1600
 Edward Lloyd (died 1639), proctor in St Asaph.

We've got your exclusive sneak peek at Bill Condon's 'The Good Liar,' starring Ian McKellen as an aging con man and Helen Mirren as his newest mark.
Two other characters add to the overall intrigue: Jim Carter ("Downton Abbey") stars as Roy's longtime partner Vincent ("The kindly one, the one who has more of a moral compass," Condon says), and Russell Tovey ("Quantico") plays Betty's grandson Stephen, who's wary of her new suitor.
As much as Mirren enjoyed her character, she also loves the construction of a mystery and the idiosyncrasies required in her performance: "You sort of need to lead the audience by the nose, in a way."
Although much of the mystery genre has "been taken over" by TV, Condon feels "it's right for re-examination in cinema." And he's bringing it into modern times: While "The Good Liar" is a bit of a period piece – it's set in 2008 ("There are websites but no apps") – he says technology is integral to its puzzle and reveals.

Fantasy Novels to Treat Your Game of Thrones Withdrawal
Posted by Margaret Dunham
With a little less than half a year to go before HBO brings us new episodes of Game of Thrones (but hey, who's counting?) many fans are experiencing classic symptoms of withdrawal.
If you or someone you love have been feeling lethargic, anxious, paranoid that your (fictional) brothers are out to get you or can't stop speaking Dothraki, here are some hand-picked books (other than the actual Game of Thrones novels, that is) to help you get through the wait.
Why you'll love it: Simpsons jokes aside, if you enjoy the epic house rivalry, underhanded espionage, giant monsters (worms not dragons), death duels with poisoned blades, and creepy/awesome priestesses in GoT, hold onto your stillsuit because this is going to be a fantastic ride. In many ways Dune is, like GoT, a fight for the crown, but in this case it's the Imperium and the known universe instead of the Iron Throne and Seven Kingdoms.
How it's different: It's a far-future story of planetary domination, the subjugation of indigenous people, and the psycho-temporal effects of the ubiquitous drug the Spice. There are also mentally supercharged servants, wine that is basically the best study drug in the world, and a little dash of allegory in reference to the oil trade. It's also a very extensive series, so you'll have plenty to read before the season premiere.
Redwall
Why you'll love it: Medieval castles and abbeys, stalwart fighters when called to arms, stories told from the perspectives of multiple characters over the novel (chapter by chapter, just like GoT), and plenty of ale to go around. The feasts are the best part – and The Rains of Castamere definitely isn't on the Abbot's playlist.
How it's different: All the characters are mice or other woodland creatures. Redwall is only the first book in the 21 volume series, and it's an appropriate read for kids aged about 8 and up. This is the book you give your niece or nephew when they start reading over your shoulder during a Cersei chapter.
Dealing with Dragons: The Enchanted Forest Chronicles
Why you'll love it: Given the chance, I'm pretty sure Sansa, Arya, and perhaps especially Daenerys would have been friends with the intelligent and straightforward Princess Cimorene. If you're a fan of dragons, a little intrigue, and well-rounded Bechdel-test-passing female characters on quests, this is a great YA option for you.
How it's different: Dragons in the Enchanted Forest not only talk, but they have a civil order all their own and social obligations. Intrigue in these books is rarely the work of humans – it's almost always wizards or dragons making trouble. It's a four book series, and an ideal read for YA enthusiasts.
Anything J.R.R. Tolkien
Why you'll love it: He's the granddaddy of fantasy as we know it, and you're in for artful descriptions and sweeping epics. Long journeys, extensive histories and ancient conflicts are brought to bear in his work. Plus, you'll be able to spot his influence when new episodes finally arrive (and get to feel super smart).
How it's different: The language and the layout of some of his more popular works like The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings tend to favor the story of one adventure, while GoT has fistfuls of adventure all happening at once. If you're ready for songs in Elvish and Dwarven lineage explanations, this is the author for you.
Awesome Illustration via Mister Moster
Dragons of Autumn Twilight: Dragonlance Chronicles
Why you'll love it: This series has the diverse characters and rich world building you've come to expect as a GoT fan, along with adventurers that are fallible (they miss shots, fall down, get sick, and have awkward crushes). There are dragons on the side of ultimate good, and dragons on the side of evil in a world where magic is a part of life for our travelers.
How it's different: This series is based on Dungeons and Dragons modules, so the world is filled with dwarves, elves, wizards and even once-daily spells. The widely-varied characters travel together on a mission to save the world, rather than the widely-varied characters of GoT that set out to rule it. If you like Dragons of Autumn Twilight, there are 2 more books in the Chronicles and many more after that to keep you busy!
Bonus: 5th Edition D&D Player's Handbook
Why you'll love it: It's out now, and if you love GoT but haven't tried D&D, well, now's the time. One of the best ways to get by when you're missing your favorite fantasy adventure is to build a fantasy adventure of your own. Folks are already raving about the 5th check it out and find some friends to play!
What are you reading to get you through the GoT dry spell? Leave a comment to let us know!

Mumbai Metro Line-2 Trials to Start from 26th May
Mumbai Metro
The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) is all set to begin the trial run of Mumbai Metro Line-2, which will connect the two western suburbs i.e. Andheri and Dahisar, from May 26.
The planning authority has set a target to start the commercial operations on the first 20 km of this route by October and the remaining 17 km by December end. On May 18, Mumbai recorded 953 new covid cases, lowest since March.
The work on the line resumed in October 2020 post lockdown. "We brought in the workers from different part of the country," says MMRDA commissioner R.A. Rajeev. "We are taking utmost care of their safety and following all Covid protocol."
The 20 km long section of the metro, line 2A, will connect D.N. Nagar (Andheri) to Dahisar, the last suburb of Mumbai on the west side. The 17 km long section, line 7, will bring Andheri (east) closer to Dahisar (east).
Initially, each metro will have six driverless coaches with a passenger capacity of 380 per coach. The stations on these routes, though, have been constructed to accommodate eight coach trains. Once in operation, these Metro lines will reduce the traffic congestion by 26 per cent. The MMRDA hopes that 25 per cent motorists who travel on the Western Express Highway, as well as 12 per cent passengers of local trains will switch to the Metro.
The work for the metro lines 2A and 7 began in 2016. There were seven bidders for these projects. The Bharat Earth Movers Limited (BEML), headquartered in Bengaluru, won the bid. The work order was issued in November 2018 and the lines were supposed to be operational by December 2020.
However, the lockdown imposed from March to October last year because of the pandemic, delayed work. According to Rajeev, the delay has not resulted in cost escalation. "The total cost of these projects is Rs 12,618 crore. We have spent Rs 6,000 crore so far. In fact, we are going to save at least Rs 1,000 crore by the time the lines are operational."
He attributes the achievement to better contract management, procurements within limits and a transparent bidding process. "One metro coach for line 3 cost Rs 10 crore. For line 2A and 7, we managed to procure each coach at Rs 8 crore. We are going to save Rs 1,000 crore in just the procurement."
This is the first metro in Mumbai being built under the 'Make in India' initiative. However, cables, traction monitor, wheels, air suspension, interlocking hardware, gates, ticket reader, escalators and the lighting system are being imported from 11 countries—Japan, South Korea, Italy, China, Germany, Czechoslovakia, France, Denmark, Singapore, Spain and Finland.
Procuring stocks have been no easy task since these countries were under lockdown for a long time as well. "We used to conduct online meetings in three different time zones to resolve the transportation hurdles," says Rajeev. "Once when there was shortage of steel, I personally spoke to Naveen Jindal, chairman of Jindal Steel, so that the supply could be made smoother."
It was a huge task to coordinate with more than 50 contractors, who completed the civil works. Land acquisition, shifting of power lines and working for only six hours after midnight, when the vehicular traffic is minimum, was also a challenging task. Rajeev said micro-planning helped the MMRDA to overcome these hurdles. "Think about the work and you will get the solution," said Rajeev, who also worked while isolating at home when he was infected with covid-19 last December.
It was also a challenge to keep the fare affordable. The fare for metro 2A and 7 will be cheaper than metro-1, which connects Versova and Ghatkopar, i.e. Rs 10 for the first 3 km, Rs 20 for 3-12 km and Rs 30 for 12-37 km. The maximum fare will be Rs 30, Rs 10 lower than that of the 22 km long Metro-1. The MMRDA has started the process of taking over the operations of Metro-1 that is currently run by R-Infra. The MMRDA has 24 per cent stake in Metro-1.

Fred Ho refutes the claim that Richard Aoki was an FBI informant
Fred Ho refutes the claim that Richard Aoki was an FBI informant Asian American Studies scholar Fred Ho, author of WICKED THEORY, NAKED PRACTICE, writing for Moorbey's blog. https://www.upress.umn.edu/press/press-clips/fred-ho-refutes-the-claim-that-richard-aoki-was-an-fbi-informant https://www.upress.umn.edu/logo.png
By Fred Ho
Moorbey's Blog
I knew Richard Aoki from the period of the late 1990s to the end of his life in 2009. Prior to the publication of Diane Fujino's book, SAMURAI AMONG PANTHERS (University of Minnesota Press), I probably was the main person who had published the most about Aoki (c.f., Legacy to Liberation: Politics and Culture of Revolutionary Asian Pacific America, AK Press).
In fact, Richard Aoki and I spoke on the telephone a day or two before he killed himself. During the Spring of 2009 we were in regular contact via telephone (as he was in the Bay Area and I in New York City) as I had undergone another surgery in the cancer war I have been fighting since 2006, and he was facing major illness and deterioration, hospitalized during this time. Richard regularly contacted me as he was very concerned about my dying, and I was concerned for him as well.
We had a very special relationship that allows me to easily, comfortably and assertively rebut the claims made by the two proponents of the accusation that Richard Aoki was an FBI informant.

Q: Prove that every subspace of $V$ invariant under $T$ has even dimension.
Suppose that $V$ is  a real vector space and $T:V\to V$ is a linear operator having no eigen values.
Prove that every subspace of $V$ invariant under $T$ has even dimension.

Attempt: If $V$ has dimension odd so the characteristic polynomial of $T$ also has odd degree and hence has a real root which is false
Hence $\dim V$= even.
But that's not helping me here,I should deal with invariant subspace  here.But how should I do it?

A: If $W$ is invariant by $T$, $T_{\mid W}$ , the restriction of $T$ to $W$ does not have real eigenvalues too. Suppose that its dimension is odd, the degree of the characteristic polynomial $P_W$  of $T_{\mid W}$ is odd, so it  has a real root, contradiction, since a root of $P_W$ is an eigenvalue.
Write $P_W=a_0+a_1x+..+a_nx^n$, if $a_n>0$ $lim_{x\rightarrow-\infty}P_W(x)=-\infty$ and $lim_{x\rightarrow+\infty}P_W(x)=+\infty$ or the converse if $a_n<0$. So IVT theorem implies there exists $x$ such that $P_W(x)=0$.

Q: How to count different arrays line numbers from reading a file I'm doing a school assignment. It requires me to read names and income from a file and put everyone that is in the same family together to calculate the family's tax.
I have already put people into different arrays, but I am having a hard time to count how many family members that each family has.
