Home Opinions The Hindu Diaspora and its hostile relationship with ethnic minorities in India
The Hindu Diaspora and its hostile relationship with ethnic minorities in India
Franca Colozzo
Lately, looking for news about what has been happening in New Delhi since 26 February 2020 with regard to Muslims, I was struck by reading an article that made me think a lot: "Why Does Hindu Diaspora In Developed Multicultural Countries Hate Minorities Back Home In India?" "The Hindu diaspora has been taking keen interest in electoral politics, supporting and financing the 'Hindutva' candidates in elections in India.", by Ashok Swain, 20 December 2017 and republished by OUTLOOK INDIA March 02, 2020.

This new witch hunt, which seems to be repeated over time in a large and overcrowded continent like India, composed of a puzzle of cultures, ethnic groups, religions and atavistic cultures, has made me think about how man is always looking for a scapegoat for his frustrations. Whether it is the Coronavirus of these days and the hunt for the sick or healthy bearer, the plague-stricken on duty guilty only of having contracted the virus, or the migrant seen as a burden or burden to unload elsewhere, it seems that this leap year 2020 has not started off on the right foot.
Intolerance, dissatisfaction, frustrations of various kinds, disappointment of the young and not-so-young at working-age groups, incompetence are dragging humanity towards the hellish circle of witch-hunting.
Mindful of the years of the plague in Milan, as expertly recounted by the great Italian writer Alessandro Manzoni in "I Promessi Sposi" (The Betrothed), a famous historical considered the most famous and the most widely read among those written in the Italian language published in its final version between 1840 and 1842, I dived into the historical setting, between 1628 and 1630, in Lombardy during the Spanish domination.
Now that we are living the contradictions of our overcrowded world, with all the ecological and environmental problems (climatic variations, pollution, deforestation, over-consumption of the soil, etc.) the current pandemic reminds me of the Great Plague in Milan of 1629-1631.
In addition to the economic consequences of so much unjustified alarmism, given the medical knowledge far superior to the past and the use of innovative drugs able to counteract the serious forms of pneumonia, etc. here, as if that were not enough, a strong ostracism against migrants, ethnic and religious minorities reappear on a global level.
But the Indian phenomenon has deeper and more deeply rooted roots than what happens in the world.
Shame for what is happening in New Delhi these days, an infamy for human rights.
I've been reading articles by senior Indian leaders, now abroad. They point out the dichotomy between their struggle as minorities against the governments of the countries in which they reside and the struggle that they conduct in India the residents against the ethnic minorities.
You can't ask when you are in the Diaspora that your requests be accepted as belonging to a Hindu minority, when at home you become a cruel and ruthless executor of laws against minorities. There is an underlying contradiction. Double standards. Try to implement human rights in a fair manner, instead of spreading hate messages that fuel further hatred. This is what is happening now in New Delhi, the capital of India, a world shame also condemned by the UN.
Not being in favor of any terrorist groups, I have only photographed the current situation in New Delhi which, condemned by all included UN, should be condemned also by you residents of India. One day you will find yourself as the Germans besieged by Hitler's SS, then you will understand that India has been torn apart by yourselves.
A brief history of the RSS to understand its historical matrix appears necessary. Why then declare RSS a Terrorist Organization?
«Founded in 1925, the RSS took direct inspiration from the European fascist movements of the 1920s-1940s, including the Nazi Party. Today, it has metastasized into a 6 million + member uniformed and armed paramilitary. The RSS is responsible for acts of gross violence, including participating in every major pogrom in independent India. We are calling on the US State Department to declare the RSS a terrorist organization.
The RSS is infamous for its members dressing in uniforms which strongly resemble those worn by members of the Hitler Youth. It was founded in 1925, the same year that the Nazi party was reformulated with Hitler as its leader. In addition to drawing inspiration from the Nazis, the RSS modeled itself after Mussolini's fascist movement in Italy.
In 1931, RSS co-founder BS Moonje met Mussolini in Rome. After praising the dictator's fascist youth group, ONB, for its "military regeneration" of Italian youth, Moonje wrote, "India and particularly Hindu India need some such institution for the military regeneration of the Hindus." He claimed that "the idea of fascism vividly brings out the conception of unity amongst people" and declared: "Our institution of Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh of Nagpur under Dr Hedgewar is of this kind."
The longest-serving RSS chief, M.S. Golwalkar, called it treason for an Indian to convert away from Hinduism or refuse to "glorify the Hindu Race and Nation." In 1939, he also wrote glowingly in support of Nazi racial policy: "To keep up the purity of the race and its culture, Germany shocked the world by her purging the country of the Semitic races — the Jews. Race pride at its highest has been manifested here." He called this "a good lesson for us in Hindustan to learn and profit by."
In its June 2019 report, the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom warned that the RSS's agenda "to alienate non-Hindus or lower-caste Hindus is a significant contributor to the rise of religious violence and persecution."
The RSS has been repeatedly accused of instigating violence. It has been banned several times, the first time following the assassination of M.K. Gandhi by a former RSS member.
In 2002, Human Rights Watch named the RSS and its subsidiaries as the groups responsible for an anti-Muslim pogrom that killed 2,000 in the Indian state of Gujarat. In 2012, Swami Aseemanand, a full-time RSS worker, confessed to orchestrating several terrorist bombings which claimed hundreds of lives from 2006 to 2008. Many other instances of bombings, assassinations, and pogroms have been laid at the feet of the RSS.
The RSS (including its many subsidiaries) has been linked to many other major incidents of anti-minority violence all across India. These include the 1947 Jammu Massacre (20,000+ Muslims killed) and the 1969 Gujarat Riots (400+ Muslims killed) — both of which occurred shortly after visit by Golwalkar. Later came the 1970 Bhiwandi Riots in Maharashtra (190+ Muslims killed), the 1983 Nellie Massacre in Assam (2,200+ Bengali Muslims killed), the 1984 Sikh Genocide in Delhi (3,000+ Sikhs killed), the 1985 Gujarat Riots (hundreds of Muslims killed), the 1987 Meerut Riots in Uttar Pradesh (hundreds of Muslims killed), the 1989 Bhagalpur Riots in Bihar (900+ Muslims killed), the 1992 nationwide riots following the Babri Mosque destruction (2,000+ Muslims killed), the 2002 Gujarat Pogrom (2,000+ Muslims killed), the 2008 Odisha Pogrom (100+ Christians killed), and countless other smaller-scale incidents.»
Democracy and freedom are this: to speak aloud without fear, maybe some people have to learn from European history and revolutions to achieve these goals. That's why Indian diaspora wants to come to Europe, a continent where freedom is the fruit of two cruel World Wars. Freedom is a seed that must be watered every day in order to have fruits of stability and peace, is not a commodity acquired beforehand.
Because men are animated by protagonism and war is one of the most flashy stages. Does this seem strange? But from what world is world nothing has changed if we continue to slaughter each other even for a piece of bread, for a commendation, for a quote. Is this the way to peace? Where are the sleeping heroes of history? I often see them writhing up there in the sky among the wandering clouds of my memory.
The real problem is that Indians in the diaspora (not me, but an eminent Indian PHD who lives in Sweden) want to have minority rights in the other countries where they go to work, but they don't recognize them to other minorities (especially Muslims and Christians) in India. This is a real paradox!
As is clear from the article that struck me and made me understand the anthropological and sociological matrix of this rampant phenomenon of "Witch Hunt" on the Hindu side.
Livor for the situation of an Indian GDP that is not growing like the Chinese one, for example, shifting American and Arab interests towards India in order to slow down Chinese growth and therefore increase the Indian one? The signals coming from the world are contradictory, but one thing is certain: there is always the imperialist push to shift the world balance towards this or that country according to internal needs. This is how globalization has canned the world, making the peoples servants of the masters!

The Adler relation (AR), which bridges soft interactions of neutrinos and pions, might look as a manifestation of pion dominance. However neutrino cannot fluctuate to a pion because of lepton current conservation, instead it interacts via much heavier hadronic components. This fact leads to nontrivial relations between interaction amplitudes of different hadronic species, in particular, it links diagonal and off-diagonal diffractive interactions of pions. Absorptive corrections break these relations making the AR impossible to hold universally, i.e. for any target and at any energy. We predict a dramatic breakdown of the AR for coherent neutrino-production of pions on nuclei at all energies.


IPM Italiana Prodotti Minerali s. r. l .
Italiana Prodotti Minerali s.r.l., was established in Genoa, Italy about half a century ago in 1966 to meet the need of various raw materials for the European Steel Industry and was soon able to gain confidence and trust of the globally reputed steel manufacturers. Today it has a strong client base that includes names like Thyssen-Krupp, Voest etc.
Four decades later, it became quite evident that though India herself is a mineral rich country, the projected growth that this country is poised for in the core sectors will soon lead to a deficiency in terms of the essential raw materials for steel.
And thus began the journey of IPM COMMODITIES PRIVATE LIMITED, the Indian arm of Italiana Prodotti Minerali s.r.l., in April 2010, with its base in Kolkata. The company emerged with an objective to provide complete solutions in terms of raw materials to the steel and associated industries in India.
In early 2016, a new organisation named Minmet S.A.M was formed in Monaco in order to give better financial and commercial support to the Indian and European operations. Minmet S.A.M has now become the major stakeholders of IPM Commodities Pvt Ltd. Accordingly, IPM Commodities became the Indian arm of Minmet S.A.M. to carry out the same type of business as earlier.
In pursuance to its objective of providing solutions in terms of sourcing of raw materials to the steel and allied industries, IPM Commodities felt the necessity of having its presence in Singapore through a subsidiary entity to facilitate transactions with the Indian customers in foreign currencies, thus providing financially competitive offers to its customers. Eventually, IPMC (Singapore) Pte Ltd. wasestablished in January 2017, with75% stakes held by IPM Commodities.The objective of establishing this new company was to start full-fledged trading business of various industrial commodities to cater to the needs of Indian steel mills and alloy manufacturing units.Having presence in Singapore, IPMC Singapore has not only got access to international finance at a competitive price but also has got the accessibility to the international market in terms of chartering a vessel, sourcing materials and also diversified selling opportunities.
During the first year of operations ending 31st March 2018, IPMC (Singapore) has traded only in manganese ore and has recorded a turnover of USD 15.43 million. With trading of other commodities like carbon products and increased trading volume of manganese ore in the coming years, the company is poised to grow at a rate of 30-35% progressively over the next 5 years.
We are actively involved in the sourcing of raw materials for the manufacture of steel products. Our global contacts enable us to source manganese ore, iron ore, coal and coke from countries as diversified as South Africa, Russia, Ukraine, Turkey, Italy, China and various other countries.

Stavis Seafoods
Stavis Seafoods has represented the Boston seafood industry since 1929. Originally called the Stavis Ipswich Clam Company, it was founded by Isadore Stavis and focused primarily on buying and distributing fresh clams from Boston, New England and Canadian waters. Since its inception, Stavis Seafoods has grown in size and variety of products offered and has become one of the leading fresh seafood companies in the United States. Stavis added frozen seafood to its repertoire in the early 1960s, an area that continues to grow until this day.
The company remains family-owned and operated today with four members of the Stavis family still actively involved in the business. The growth of Stavis Seafoods from one employee in 1929 to a $160 million wholesale seafood company and international seafood distributor is due to the commitment of the Stavis family to the business. Widely considered an innovator in the seafood industry, Stavis Seafoods offers more than 700 of the best seafood items from more than 25 countries around the world. They are one of the few companies capable of importing such volume from so many different countries and selling to so many different markets. Stavis is a responsible importer and takes a number of affirmative steps to certify its vendors, including in-depth HACCP plan analysis and plant visits to ensure the quality, safety, and integrity of the items that it imports.
StavisSeafoods_logo.jpg
Stavis's primary distribution facility is located in the Marine Industrial Park in Boston. An expansion and renovation completed in 2006 allows them to distribute product held to the highest standards of safety. Stavis also has a distribution location in Miami, which provides fresh and frozen seafood to the active Miami seafood and Florida seafood markets. Stavis Seafoods ships more than 38 million pounds of seafood annually. The company has come a long way from buying live clams in New England and Canada. Today, Stavis distributes via air, truck and ships both nationally and internationally. Stavis also ships seafood direct from several ports around the USA, including Miami, Los Angeles, New Jersey and Alaska. Overnight delivery available via FedEx.

Research takes back seat in Australia's international boom
Research the goal but not the currency, as Australian universities chase Chinese dollars
By John Ross
Twitter: @JohnRoss49
Source: Getty
While foreign postgraduates are increasingly bankrolling research at Australia's most prestigious universities, the role that research plays in their learning experience appears to be diminishing.
International enrolments at the Group of Eight universities have exploded in recent years, as institutions harvest foreign tuition fees to compensate for flatlining government funding.
New data suggest that this enrolment surge has been almost exclusively in postgraduate taught rather than research programmes, and that students are increasingly being instructed by academics who are not active researchers.
The number of international students enrolling in research higher degree programmes at Go8 universities' Australian campuses declined marginally between 2012 and 2016, according to customised Education Department data obtained by Melbourne demographer Bob Birrell.
Over the same period, the number of foreigners commencing postgraduate "coursework" or taught programmes – mostly master's degrees costing between A$35,000 and A$50,000 (£20,000-£28,000) a year – ballooned by 69 per cent.
Search our database of more than 7,000 global university jobs
By 2016, the Go8 was admitting 11 new international postgraduate taught students – up from six in 2012 – for every new overseas research higher degree candidate. The bulk of this surge came from East Asia, with the group more than doubling its intake of Chinese postgraduate taught students to 14,600. This compared with about 500 Chinese research postgraduates.
Among non-Go8 institutions, the number of commencing Chinese master's students rose by just 3 per cent over the same period. The trend was reflected in Chinese undergraduate commencements, with numbers increasing by 121 per cent at Go8 universities and 13 per cent elsewhere.
Dr Birrell said that almost all of the Go8's increase in international commencements had come from China. He said that he had been surprised by the surge in enrolments for taught master's programmes, which had traditionally predominated in less expensive universities.
Go8 universities were trading on their global top-100 status by attracting "a significant fraction of very wealthy Chinese", Dr Birrell said.
The University of Sydney did this most effectively, increasing its intake of Chinese postgraduate taught students by 181 per cent to more than 4,100 by 2016. Monash University and the University of Melbourne each saw increases of about 150 per cent to around 2,600 students, while the University of Queensland almost doubled its intake to about 1,500.
Dr Birrell said that universities had conscripted international students "to the neglect of their teaching effort". The Go8 rejected this, saying that senior Education Ministry officials in Beijing had praised the quality of its education.
"Their graduates return home well educated and very employable," said executive director Vicki Thomson. "The fact that we have seen growth in this market would suggest that students and their families see the value proposition from what the Go8 universities have to offer."
However, Education Department staffing statistics offer scant evidence that Australian universities have invested their international tuition fee windfall in teaching resources. In full-time equivalent terms, the Go8 institutions increased their overall staffing levels by just 1.5 per cent between 2012 and 2016.
Their full-time equivalent student numbers rose by 14 per cent over this period, with international students contributing 78 per cent of this rise. The statistics also suggest a shift towards non research-active staff, with the Go8 institutions increasing the number of casual employees by 7 per cent and tenured teaching-only academics by 17 per cent.
Across the sector, staffing levels rose 6 per cent to accommodate a 15 per cent increase in student numbers.

What the article fails to acknowledge is how nearly all of this international student growth is focused on business schools. I could have old statistics but approximately 60% of all intl students study business and the business schools are invariably loaded with students who struggle even with the most basic english language skills (https://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-11-25/poor-english-no-jobs-little-support-international-students/10513590?fbclid=IwAR2_fWsF-V_Og9JDnvHQcDRg5v7S6hBwk1gxPDcaUWEspSlXpoY1huT42rQ). The business schools are, in some cases delivering upwards of several hundred million dollars in free cash flow to their universities and the sole reason many universities have bee financially viable over the last two decades is because of the margins associated with low cost but high price business degrees. My colleague, Graham Dowling, and I wrote an article in the Australian published on 8 May 2003 (which can be read at http://www.modern-cynic.org/2013/04/27/a-modest-proposal/) that highlighted this more than a decade ago (and offering a solution that no one was willing to take up). I assume that the situation is now even more worrying.

I am a PhD candidate in one of the nonG8 universities in Sydney. I am also part of the less celebrated casual teaching staff. Both from teaching and researcher roles, I could see a kernel of truth in this report. I do not have any specific statistics, but it seems our university is driving to bring more and more international students into the taught programmes, both in undergraduate and higher degree level. The number of Higher Degree Research (HDR) international students also growing, but it is not comparable to the taught courses. Moreover, existing funding for international students are not often adequate, and they need to operate under extreme time pressure. The scholarship will only cover a certain period and any extension would attract additional charges. Needless to elaborate the strain it put on already frail finance of an international student. Taken together, perhaps, our university sees the future as more teaching based institutes. (comments are my own).

If the previous release candidate had few changes, this one is the opposite. I consider this good news as it's better to catch bigger issues now rather than later. Thanks for feedback!
I managed to improve the Redux version of Kanban. Most importantly I integrated redux-devtools to it. The implementation could probably use a few more tweaks, but that's not the priority right now.
Thanks to reader feedback, the Kanban implementation has improved in various places. The UX is a little better now and the logic is clearer in certain parts. These are small touches that are worth doing. I still need to update certain screenshots at the book to match the current status, but the technical parts are there.
html-webpack-plugin reached a new major version. Unfortunately this broke compatibility with html-webpack-template temporarily. There's a compatible version of the latter available as a tagged version. The problem has been resolved in the current version.
In total 58 commits went to 2.0.0-rc3. To make it easier to follow what happened and where, I've split up the changes below.
On general level I tidied up arrow syntax. I.e. instead of (name) => ... you might see name => .... The latter form is less noisy so that's used where it makes sense. Feel free to use either one you prefer, though.
To make it easier to use the book, I wrote a section on how to approach it. There's no one right way and it all depends on what you know already and how you prefer to learn. You could, for instance, jump straight to the React bits and read Webpack ones after that.
Suggested the usage of Vagrant in addition to the official Node.js packages.
Defined a starter index.html by hand. Now html-webpack-plugin gets discussed later in the book. It felt like introducing it so early could be distracting. It's better to start with something people are familiar with and move from there.
Improved flow overall. Now it should be a little easier to follow.
Dropped the mention that stage 2 features are included in Babel. That's not true anymore given the book uses Babel 6.
Included babel-plugin-transform-object-assign to the project preset. This allows us to use the standard Object.assign while keeping it legacy compatible. One less direct dependency to worry about!
Simplified "Rendering Through index.jsx" greatly. This was possible thanks to the fact that html-webpack-plugin is discussed later.
Dropped the mention of react-transform-catch-errors. No need for that anymore given there's a Babel preset now that deals with the details.
Changed editing logic to use defaultValue instead of placeholder while setting the input caret to the end. This achieved by using a ref with a callback. It's a small trick that's worth knowing and covering as it gives you more control just for cases like this.
Dropped object-assign dependency. This isn't needed anymore given we go through Babel now. We can use just Object.assign directly and it will work.
Cleaned up the implementation of storage.js. Now it's all ES6.
Renamed NoteStore.get and NoteStore.getNotesByIds to make it unambiguous.
Annotated NoteStorage.getNotesByIds in detail. There's quite a bit going on so this felt like a good idea.
Improved UX of lanes. Now there are separate controls for editing and removing lanes. You can begin to edit a lane name by clicking anywhere on the lane header. The only exception to that rule is adding a note to it. In that case we trigger stopPropagation to override the default bubbling behavior.
Converted console.log to use backtick syntax where it felt like a good idea. A little easier to read.
Converted console.log to use backtick syntax where it felt like a good idea.
Removed removeNote and wrote the logic inline into attachToLane. Simpler and easier to understand.
Moved html-webpack-plugin bits here. Now there's a single section where I discuss the approach. Far neater!
Made sure webpack-clean-plugin isn't in verbose mode. This breaks Webpack stats so it's better to do it this way for now. The problem is that the plugin uses Webpack API wrong and goes through console instead of the logging API that Webpack provides. I'll try to get the plugin fixed in the near future.
Dropped redundant onDelete propType from Note. This isn't needed at all as it's enough to assert it on Editable.
Recommended the usage of "extends": "eslint:recommended", at .eslintrc. It's a good starting point.
Changed package.json example to use namespacing and added some newlines. Cleaner to read and use.
Explained various ways to bump a version in greater detail.
Clarified why to preprocess your distribution files instead of including them to your version control.
Showed how to return an object easily when using the arrow notation for functions.
Added a section on object shorthands.
As usual, I will work based on your feedback. I have a couple of discussion points in mind I want to expand upon. And I need to get those screenshots done. The nice thing is that there aren't that many content related tasks yet! So in short, it's starting to look good.
After I have done the tweaks I have in mind, I'll move to the next step with my publication process to get the first paper version done. Interesting times.
If you are working through the book, remember that you can find up to date code from the book repository. I maintain the stable version at the master branch. For technical reasons the repository shows you the development version, though. This is just to make it easier to contribute to the book.
Remember that you can contact me directly or through the GitHub issue tracker. Also Gitter will work. It's good for me to know where you struggle so I can tweak the book.
You can support my work by purchasing the book at Leanpub. Every little bit counts and allows me to keep it up.


and this year's leave s.
I went to Frome on Saturday; along a little branch line which chumbles slowly between bushes and fields and is single track in places. There are even 'Request Stops' where the train will only come to a halt if you tell the guard in advance that you want to get off.
Rather grandly, the notice board on the platform said it would be going to Cardiff and the signs in the carriages were in Welsh as well as in English.
Dead leaves at the foot of a Holm Oak Trunk. You can go to Bristol on the same train too. Sometimes there's an announcement to say it will go to Gloucester instead.
But whatever its destination - it never fails to be an adventure, going on this train. There's always a sense of 'something beyond' - a notion that, one day, one might simply stay in one's seat and leave it to chance where, and when, one might arrive. And, wherever it's going, it goes slow enough to make it worth while looking out of the window because everything stays there long enough to be looked at.
Much of the Ground Elder is taller than me now.
There are an awful lot of blasted oaks in the middles of fields on the way to Frome. You'd have thought they'd be in the way. And un-blasted ones too. There are little rivers and small hills - and a high ridge to look up to. And nearly all the fields are bright green squares bordered with the white blossom of blackthorn.
Not for much longer though. The further we went into Somerset, the tattier it got, browner, closer to the moment when petals will fall. It'll happen here too soon - and then we'll be into May. There's a white Hawthorn tree near my house which breaks into blossom first every year.
And it's done it again!
And, after the May . . . maybe last year will be gone. In the meantime, there's a lot of 2008 still around.
Hi Lucy, I'm really digging the ground elder (figuratively, not literally)--I love the buds. I also love trains and the idea that you're not quite sure where you may end up! And as a train lover who hardly ever gets to ride trains, may I humbly request a photo or two of any train you come across?!
But Monica - there are no leaves on trains!
I have been thinking of doing a post about the old platforms on an unused railway line nearby . . . and on PICTURES JUST PICTURES tomorrow there's a photo of the unused platform at Frome - which is opposite the one the train comes in and out of.
In the summer, old steam trains are brought back into service for special trips between London and Weymouth. This is very exciting . . . except, for North Americans I think all our trains, even the steam ones, and however special they are to us would lood . . . er . . . a bit tame and small!
Ground elder was such a nuisance to us when we were gardening in Scotland. Esp. b/c the soil was on the clayish side, and the leaves/stems always broke off underground before you could dig out the root.
but your experience sounds much more whimsical!
And isn't hawthorne also called May? It's fragrance is so hard to define. I'm not sure I like it.
Ground Elder is a horrible challenge if it gets into a garden and everyone tries to get rid of it . . . so we hardly ever see what it looks like if it is allowed to grow and because it bolts so high when it comes into flower, we wouldn't necessarily recgnise it for what it is. It certainly doesn't hug the ground!
There seem to be miles of it, round here. And not just in wild places. I've seen a lot beside a large roundabout. It's very pretty and its smell is delicate and delicious.
The stems and the seedheads remain fascinating once the flowers are over (which they will be quite soon now).
There's a superstition about not bringing the blossom into the house. Maybe that's to do with the smell.
I don't know what you think but I really dislike the smell of flowering currant too.
And there's an odd thing about Spanish Broom - that in the garden it smells wonderful but, if you cut it and bring it into the house, the smell is disgusting. Weird!
How wonderful to live opposite a narrow guage railway!
There is a difference, I think, between tourist railways and ones in regular use. There's a fantastic steam railway between Swanage and Corfe Castle and I would definitely recommmend visitors to try it out if ever they are in Dorset . . . but it very much has a touristy, holiday atmosphere. Whereas the one which goes through Frome is still a functioning, ordinary railway with comuters etc. (and no steam engines). It just happens to follow a very beautiful route. For people who have a day to spare . . . I'd highly recommend that too.
The reason I say 'day' is that the trains are infrequent so you might have to wait before going back the other way. However, if you go to somewhere like Frome, there are some really nice places to eat, very old streets to explore and a fantastic, independent bookshop.
Independent bookshops are rare nowadays but there is another one at Castle Cary (on the same line). Castle Cary has a small but fascinating museum of rural / domestic and agricultural history too.
Seem to have put a Tourist Encouragement Hat on! But this isn't a very well known part of the world despite being full of delights - so I tend to become enthusiastic!
I know there are all sorts of stereotypes associated with Californina. (I seem to remember that you are tall and bronzed and phenominally fit; very wealthy (though not necessarily brainy) spend all your time on the beach, eat nothing but raisins but are eaten by sharks.) But at least people have heard of California! Indeed of Santa Cruz.
P.S. Monica - I confess we probably don't have any pre-conceptions about Michigan. I'm not sure whether that's a good or bad thing.
I feel like I was on the train ride with you. Thanks for pictures of stuff I never see "in the wild" here in Southern California.
A wonderful journey Monica, I thoroughly enjoyed it. I wish I could go on it but I'm in Ireland! We have few trains here of any description. I love the white hawthorn, it's so pretty. That tree is annoying me! Is it a birch or some kind?
I love your theme of last years and this. I don't like your bluebell picture though as they are the Spanish bluebell and are hybradising with our native bluebell, which may become endangered. You must swap it for the real bluebell!!
VP - it's quite enticing going the other way too . . . getting on at Weymouth and arriving somewhere interesting further inland!
Hi Weeping Sore - we are very lucky still to have a line like this.
Hello BT . . . I can't censor the bluebells . . . they really are there and they are growing in the wild. I don't know how they got there but there a quite a few small clusters like this.
I wouldn't plant them in my garden, I admit that, . . . but I'm one of those awful people who feel very pleased even to see rhodadendrons when they've 'escaped' and are taking over landscapes. They look so wonderfully dramatic; just as these bluebells look cheerful and pretty, even if they are not as delicate as the indigenous ones.
I think (and I may be wrong about this) that this is an example where conservation trips us up a little. We aren't allowed (I don't think) to take even a few indigenous bulbs from a wood. There might be so many that you can't take a step without standing on them but we mustn't lift and re-locate a single one. I would have thought (and, as I say, this may be wrong) that spreading the original ones round a bit might help.

How a Special Smell Triggers a Memory
December 6, 2021 February 23, 2022 Science Connected brain, memory
Does the smell of freshly baked cookies make you think of your grandmother's house? When smell triggers a memory, neuroscientists call this an associative memory. Find out how it works.
By Emery Haley
If the smell of baking cookies has ever sent you back to memories of baking at grandma's house, or if the melody of a waltz takes you back to your first wedding dance you've recalled an associative memory. Associative memory is a memory of a connection or a relationship between two things, like a smell and a place or a sound and an activity. This type of memory is what allows us to associate names or features with objects or individuals, like the name of a new coworker, or the taste of a specific food. Neuroscientists at the University of California, Irvine recently discovered the cells responsible for forming and recalling these memories.
Mice Making Associative Memories
To understand how associative memories are formed, researchers looked at how mice form and recall these memories. The mice were given sweet sugar water when one smell, "A", was present and given a bitter quinine water when a different smell, "B", was present. These mice formed associative memories connecting smell "A" with a delicious treat and smell "B" with a bitter taste. Then to test if the mice could recall these memories, the researchers presented the smell and checked to see if the mice presented a licking behavior or not. The mice were expected to lick after smell "A" (expecting sugar water) and not after smell "B" (expecting bitter taste).
Then the researchers turned off specific cells, called fan cells, in the lateral entorhinal cortex using a method called optogenetics. These fan cells send messages to the hippocampus, a structure known as the memory center of the brain. In optogenetics, the specific targeted cell type is genetically modified to express a light-sensitive channel. A light fiber is placed in a window through the skull of the mouse. When the light is turned on, it activates the light-sensitive channel, and in this case, acts like a switch to make the neurons inactive.
With each cell type turned off, the researchers tested the mice with the original smells "A" and "B". Since these smell-taste associative memories had already been formed, this test showed whether the mice could recall the memory. Then they looked at whether the mice could still form the same type of associative memories with the cells turned off. The researchers repeated the training and testing using two new smells, "1" taking the place of smell "A" and "2" taking the place of smell "B". When the fan cells were turned off, the mice could still recall the associative memories they formed with smells "A" and "B", but they couldn't form new associative memories with the new smells "1" and "2". In contrast, turning off pyramidal cells, another type of cell in the entorhinal cortex, one that does not send signals to the hippocampus, does not block the formation of associative memory. So the specific signals from fan cells to the hippocampus are necessary for forming associative memories. That's how a smell triggers a memory.
RELATED: How Does EMDR Therapy Work?
How Your Brain's "Reward" Chemical Controls Associative Memories
Next, the researchers directly recorded the electrical activity of these neurons during the training and testing periods. The researchers discovered that the fan cells fired more in response to smell "A" than smell "B" during training. After the memory was formed, the cells stopped firing in response to smell "A". Then the researchers trained the mice again using smells "1" and "2". The fan cells fired in response to smell "1" during training, but not to smell "2". In other words, the fan cell responded to a new smell when it was associated with a reward (sugar water).
The neurotransmitter dopamine is responsible for sending signals of pleasure. In other words, dopamine is the reward chemical of the brain. The fan cells receive dopamine input before sending their signals to the hippocampus. When the researchers blocked the dopamine, the mice were unable to form new associative memories, just like when the fan cells were "turned off". This is the first-time researchers have found dopamine participating in memory.
When was the last time a smell triggered a memory for you? Associative memory is important for our daily lives, but it becomes harder to form or recall these memories as we age. Patients with neurological disorders like schizophrenia, Parkinson's disease, and Alzheimer's disease often have major difficulties with this type of memory. Knowing which cells are responsible for these memories, and how they are controlled is the first step for researchers to find ways to help these patients.
This study was published in the peer-reviewed journal Nature.

More events, you ask? Yup, another 30 or so here in the next nine days to close out September. Look at this list and you'll understand why, if pressed, I'd say the fall is my favorite beer-drinking season of the year. Oktoberfest and "fall harvest" celebrations. New releases. Anniversary parties. Big festivals. Small festivals. Rare beer. Easy-to-find beer. Free beer. Expensive beer. Fun 'n' games, live music, and much more. We've got it all here; a little something for every taste beer. Enjoy!

Materials Testing/Metallurgical Failure Analysis
Materials are the building blocks of our modern world. Ranging from the steel used to build automobiles and other machines to the plastic used in pipes and ropes to the concrete used in our roads, homes, and offices.
As new materials and uses for them increase, so do the sources for them worldwide and the variance in standards for manufacture.
When the failure of a consumer product, component or system is identified as the cause of an accident, particularly one involving extensive damage, injuries or fatalities, learning why the failure occurred is of paramount importance.
Did it occur because extraordinary forces were applied?
Because a component was improperly designed or made of the wrong materials?
Was it manufactured or installed incorrectly?
Or could poor maintenance have caused the failure?
S-E-A's materials engineers focus on why and how materials, components, and systems fail.
They use numerous tools and techniques in their analysis of metallic and non-metallic materials, including optical and scanning electron microscopes, materials and component testing, and computer modeling. S-E-A maintains a stringent "chain of custody" for evidence from receipt to possible litigation.
