SL Green signs expanding law firm at 600 Lexington
Dec.December 03, 2013 05:50 PM
Law firm Goldberg Segalla has more than doubled its space with a move to SL Green Realty's 600 Lexington Avenue.
The firm's old home at 780 Third Avenue, at just under 5,000 square feet, was its first in New York City and opened a year ago. The new digs will be roughly 12,500 square feet on the 36-story office tower's ninth floor, where asking rent was $65 per square foot.
"They wound up adding attorneys and building their business a lot sooner than originally anticipated," Kyle Ciminelli, a Newmark Grubb Knight Frank broker who represented the tenant along with Robert Eisenberg, told Crain's.
The duo also helped the firm find a replacement tenant for the Third Avenue office. Dawson Securities inked a deal at the firm's former space, which Ciminelli said needed a short-term, modestly-sized lease.
Goldberg's current five-year lease comes with options to incrementally add at least 10,000 square feet of additional space if needed.

A World Cultural Heritage Site since 1978, Quito is a not-to-be-missed centerpiece of what mainland Ecuador has to offer, given its strategic location in the central Andes with easy and close access to major highland attractions.
Built in the shadow of the imposing Pichincha Volcano, the city´s architectural and artistic noteworthiness spans over four centuries, with a most striking "up and down" topography that grants you outstanding views from wherever you stand. Moreover, just to the north, on the other side of the equator, lies the land of the colorful Otavalo people, their market a photographer's and shopper's delight. And just to the southeast are the serene "páramo" highlands for a perfect day's outing amongst the more natural volcanic wonders, where one of the world's largest flying bird's (rivaling in size with the Galapagos waved albatross) may be seen – the Andean condor!
It's no wonder so many Galapagos-bound travelers come back a second and even third time for more of mainland Ecuador!
Welcome to Ecuador! Our driver will meet and transfer you to the hotel.
Enjoy something for kids of all ages: an informal hot chocolate making class! You first get an eye-opening briefing on the history and origins of cacao, the beans from where chocolate is made from. This goes back thousands of years ago when the beans were so valuable that they were used as currency, up to our present times, where Ecuador has become the No. 1 producer and exporter of the finest aroma chocolate in the world. We will use award-wining Pacari Ecuadorian chocolate to make your own cup of grandma's style hot chocolate, aromatized with cinnamon, orange peel and lemongrass. We also add a special ingredient, "máchica" or toasted barley flour to make our drink thicker and resemble the traditional "chapo" that Andean people eat on a regular basis. Hence, this creation is called chapolate.
We will use kitchen utensils from 18th century Quito to prepare your own traditional corn tortillas. Fill your delectable tortillas with cheese, onions and annatto (a rare spice from the Amazon used to give food a special color and tang), and cook them on a "tiesto" or adobe hot plate. Next, we will grind organic roasted coffee beans and learn how to make a delicious cup of this aromatic brew using a "chuspa" or cloth filter. And to accent your tortillas, we will prepare a special chili sauce using a volcanic stone grinder to mix all of the ingredients – an ancient-old method still used by the more traditional Quiteño families. Finally, enjoy a healthy Ecuadorian snack!
On Wednesdays and Fridays, you can experience the dance shows by Jacchigua National Folkloric Ballet, a colorful performance comprised of over 80 dancers, musicians and stage support that highlight the culture and traditions of Ecuador. This 2-hour presentation features 6,160 pounds (2,800 kilograms) of costumes and ethnic elements in various regional dances from around the country. Under the direction of choreographer and founder Rafael Camino, some of the most popular dances are: The Black Mama Festival, The Deer Hunt, The Ribbon Weaving Dance, and Traditions of Saraguro. Starts at 7:15 pm and costs USD 40 per person. More info here: www.jacchigua.org.
Departure from Quito to the northern Andes region. Brief stop at Calderón, famous for its handcrafted masapan bread-dolls. Continue through the town of Guayllabamba to savor its typical chirimoya or custard apple fruit, unlike anything you may have tried before. At Guachalá, you will cross the equator into the Northern Hemisphere, with Mt Cayambe in the distance, the only snowcapped in the world that straddles latitude zero at almost 20,000 feet (6,000 meters) above sea level. The nearby Quitsato Equatorial Marker is an experience not to be missed, where guests can straddle latitude zero "all to themselves", away from any tourist crowds. Moreover, here you will learn about the "correct" way to view Planet Earth and the constellations, with the Big Dipper and Southern Cross visibly opposite one another at the same time. Additionally, some interactive experiments will prove you are indeed "in the middle". At the town of Cayambe, savor Ecuadorian bizcochos – oven-baked biscuits served with cheese and/or brown sugar spread. Eventually, we reach Otavalo, known as "The Awakening Valley", passing by beautiful San Pablo Lake and Mt Imbabura. In 1495, the Otavalo region was conquered by the Inca Empire and in turn occupied by the Spanish Crown in 1535. Today, this is a most prosperous community of skilled textile weavers, who gather to sell their products at an open-air market as they have done for centuries, not only for business, but also for socializing at this colorful gathering place. Elegantly dressed, the women do all the negotiating, where you get more than what you bargained for, as the most exquisite woven works of art will be hard to pass up. And the setting is spectacular, crowned by Andean landscapes of outstanding beauty: mountains, lakes and cascades, as integral elements of their lifestyle and beliefs. But that is not all.
Finally, enjoy a typical lunch at a small restaurant in front of the Condor Lookout.
After breakfast, our driver will take you to the airport, ready to continue with our tour extensions to Galapagos, Amazon or Andes.


The difference between the 2 categories lies soley in the brewing processes involved.
These differences between ale and a lager comes down to 3 main differences in the brewing process.
Ales are made with "top-fermenting" strains of yeast which means that the yeast ferments at the top of the fermentation tank. Actually, they typically rise to the top of the tank near the end of fermentation. Ale yeasts also tend to produce chemicals called esters that can affect the flavor of the beer, depending on which strain of yeast is used. That said in rare cases, there are some brewers that use "bottom-fermenting" yeasts to make ales.
Lagers use "bottom-fermenting" yeasts which sink to the bottom of the tank and ferment there. Because they collect on the bottom of the tank, they can often be reused. The yeast in lagers does not usually add much in the way of flavor. This typically comes from the other ingredients in the brew (malt, hops, etc).
Ale yeasts ferment best at warmer temperatures, usually around room temperature and up to about 24° C. For this reason, they tend to mature and ferment faster than lagers.
Lagers ferment at colder temperatures (8-10°C). Historically, lager beers came from continental European countries like Germany, where cooler temperatures are the norm. The word "lager" comes from the German word "lagern" which means "to store" which refers to the lagering process where the beer typically ferments over longer periods of time than ales. The combination of colder temperatures and bottom-fermenting yeast is responsible for the mild and crisp taste of most lagers.
Ale recipes often contain a higher amount of hops, malt and roasted malts, hence they typically have a more prominent malty taste and bitterness.
Furthermore, brewers of ales seem to be more experimental than lager brewers and often add additional ingredients known as adjuncts to their brews. This can partially be attributed to the German 1516 beer purity law (Reinheitsgebot) which basically limits beer ingredients to malted grain, hops, yeast and water (preventing the use of adjuncts). The inception of the law was founded in a noble cause to prevent brewers from skimping on quality in order to save money by using cheaper ingredients. The problem is that the law is outdated and has stifled creativity in many European breweries that specialize in lagers and still follow this law.

Dirt 3 Review
June 3rd, 2011 by Greg Giddens
The main focus this year for the Dirt series is content. The amount of tracks, cars and modes, based on the last iteration, has been significantly improved; making Dirt 3's package easily the most comprehensive yet. Moreover, the quality of the content is unmatched. Dirt 3 is, quite simply, one of the best off-road racing titles on the market.
Dirt 3 includes a whole host of different off-road disciplines. They run the gamut, including Rally Cross, Land Rush, Head to Head, Trailblazer and the list goes on, offering you a huge variety. From point to point races where you compete against the clock and the times set by other racers, to full on multicar races across multiple laps. It allows you to enjoy your rally experience the way you like it, dashing through the mud, snow, sand or concrete alone, with ghost cars or with other racers through the woodland of Finland, the snow covered peaks of Aspen, the dusty villages of Kenya and the industrial tracks of Chicago.
The singleplayer campaign has you join the ranks of professional rally drivers and climb to the number one spot through several seasons. As you complete each series of events you gain reputation points based on you position and by meeting certain criteria, which in turn unlocks new events, sponsors and driver ranks for you to progress within the series and onto the next. As you unlock sponsors you are offered different cars from a roster of 50, specific to each event – you can even choose cars from different eras, from the 60s to present day to mix things up. Progressing through each series continues on the theme of variety, offering a spread of each mode and location to avoid fatigue. It works brilliantly, keeping the experience fresh throughout and the introduction of the Battersea compound and the Gymkana events offer up something completely different.
The Battersea compound allows for free-roam driving, completing an optional list of challenges, whilst the Gymkana events challenge you to perform precise driving tricks around obstacles courses. It's an original experience that can completely consume your time as you painstakingly learn how to handle your car in just the right way to pull off the drifts, spins and jumps required to earn the gold and platinum medals. It's a tricky set of manoeuvres to get to grips with but utterly brilliant when you do.
All the modes, including the Gymkana events, are also available in multiplayer; two player split screen and eight player online. Two of the online party modes in particular stand out, Outbreak and Transporter, which are driving variants of the zombie infected mode and capture the flag mode respectively. They're both excellent, with players dashing around sizable areas tagging cars to spread infection in Outbreak, and crashing into players to steal the flag in Transporter, and with the exceptional damage engine, which can be switched between cosmetic and realistic, it results in a hugely addictive and dynamic set of multiplayer modes.
As with the previous title, Dirt 3 allows you to adjust your handling options to a style to suit you. Options include switching on steering assists, driving lines, automatic acceleration and braking, for you to completely customise the handling to match your skill level and preference. For the simulation fan you can even opt for Hardcore mode which turns all assists and HUD elements off and places the camera in the driver's seat for a more realistic and challenging setup. Flashbacks also return from Dirt 2 which allows you to rewind time to undo any errors you make up to five times per race at the penalty of reputation points. It's a handy option for to counter the inevitable spins you end up in as the excellent and aggressive AI checks you on the way past, as well as the unavoidable crashes caused by the new weather effects of snow and rain combined with the surface spray. You'll be bashed by opponents, completely blinded by spray and weather, crash and lose your lead, but you'll love every second of it.
It's hard to find fault with Dirt 3. It's an exceptional rally game that truly brings to life the excitement of off-road racing. The new additions create exceptional variety, the tweaks polish the experience and the gorgeous visuals draw you in completely. Sure the inability to save replays other than through the new YouTube upload system is a shame and some more locations would have been nice but there's no denying the calibre of Dirt 3. It's racing miles ahead of the competition.
Platform: Xbox 360 Release Date: 24/05/11

Elon Musk Proposes To "Build Rockets In Australia" And Let Them Just "Fall Into Space" After Smoking Marijuana
Elon Musk is on the headlines again. After smoking marijuana on Youtube, the magnate has proposed something that no one ever thought about: building rockets in Australia, to reduce the cost of launching them into space by almost 80%. This is the benefit of the marijuana.
"Now we will only need to worry about building the rockets and satellites. We won't need any launch vehicle. The falcon 9 was a huge waste of time.", said Musk in an interview on Youtube.
"Assuming that the Earth isn't flat, then Australia would be upside down", said Musk during the interview. He kept going: "No one lives in Australia because people can't live upside down, or they would just fall into space. We can build rockets in Australia and then simply 'drop them' into space" he concluded.
Even though the interviewer was not a scientist, he thought that Musk's theory didn't make sense. So he questioned him: "How do you make them orbit earth? If you just let them fall into space, they won't get into orbit".
But Musk had already figured it all out. "We will put my car on the right side of the rocket", he said. "We can start my car and make it run really fast. That'll shift the rocket to the right until it eventually gets into orbit", he concluded.
"It's gonna be a Tesla", he concluded.

#MeToo Cases in the Spotlight as Southern Baptists Convene
by David Crary and Ryan Tarinelli .
The Southern Baptist Convention opened its annual national meeting Tuesday in an anxious mood as the denomination's all-male leadership grappled with the fallout of multiple sexual misconduct cases.
With virtually no opposition, delegates at the meeting adopted resolutions condemning any sexual misconduct by SBC ministers, urging more action to prevent "all forms of abuse," and encouraging abuse victims to contact civil authorities to seek protection and support.
In a late addition to the program, the SBC announced that Vice President Mike Pence would address the meeting Wednesday. In Tuesday's opening session, a delegate from Virginia, Garrett Kell, sought to cancel Pence's address and replace it with a time of prayer, but the motion was defeated.
"Many of our minority brothers and sisters will be especially hurt by this invitation," said Kell, who warned the SBC against associating with any particular administration holding power in Washington.
The agenda in Dallas did not include any reconsideration of the SBC's doctrine of "complementarianism," which espouses male leadership in the home and in the church and says a wife "is to submit herself graciously to the servant leadership of her husband."
However, the pastor elected Tuesday as the SBC's new president - J.D. Greear - is among numerous SBC leaders saying the doctrine needs to be observed in a way that's respectful of women and encourages them to play an active role in church affairs.
In a recent video posted on Facebook, Greear said the church has hurt itself by excluding women from top leadership posts.
Complementarianism "is biblical and we need to honor that ... but at the same time recognize that God has gifted women with spiritual gifts," he said. "We need to be as committed to raising them up in leadership and ministries as we are to our sons."
Greear, 45, a megachurch pastor from North Carolina who sometimes preaches in jeans and shirts with no sport coat, won about 69 percent of the votes in his election victory over former seminary president Ken Hemphill, 70.
Greear narrowly lost the election for president in 2016 and has been viewed by many Southern Baptists as the inevitable winner this time. Hemphill was nominated by some veteran SBC leaders who view him as less likely to propose potentially divisive changes.
As the two-day meeting began, about two dozen protesters gathered across the street from the convention center, drawing attention to abuse against women.
The protesters called for the creation of a database identifying pastors accused of sexual abuse and misconduct. They also want pastors and seminarians to receive training on how to respond to sexual abuse and domestic violence.
"We are not against the Southern Baptist Convention, but we believe it can be better," said Ashley Easter, a writer and speaker from Raleigh, North Carolina, who is an advocate for victims of abuse and an organizer of the protest.
Paige Patterson, the central figure in the most prominent of the SBC's #MeToo cases, had been scheduled to deliver the featured sermon at the national meeting. However, he withdrew from that role Friday, heeding a request from other SBC leaders.
Patterson was recently dismissed as president of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Texas because of his response to two rape allegations made years apart by students. He also was accused of making improper remarks about a teenage girl's body and contending that women who are in abusive relationships should almost always stay with their husbands.
SBC leaders say there are many more cases - adding up to a humiliating debacle for the 15.2 million-member denomination.
"The avalanche of sexual misconduct that has come to light in recent weeks is almost too much to bear," the Rev. Albert Mohler, president of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, wrote in a recent blog post.
In addition to its debates over gender roles, the SBC has struggled to overcome its history as a denomination formed in defense of slaveholders.
On Monday, SBC leaders announced they would expel the Raleigh White Baptist Church in Albany, Georgia, because of racial discrimination.
According to Baptist Press, the SBC's official news service, the Raleigh White congregation agreed three years ago to share its space with a predominantly black congregation, but conflicts arose. In March, when some of the black worshippers arrived at the church unexpectedly, a black female was told to use the restroom at a nearby convenience store, rather than the restroom in the church.
SBC spokesman Sing Oldham said he believed it was the first time the SBC had expelled a church on racism-related grounds.
Crary reported from New York.

Covid cases fall to a 6-month low of 8.2 lakh in December | India News
In a year ruined by the pandemic, there was reason for cautious optimism at the end, as December saw the lowest count of new Covid-19 cases in six months and the fewest deaths from the virus since May.
Some 8.24,000 cases were detected in December, the lowest monthly count since June and a 35% decrease from the November count. It was also the first time since June that the monthly case count in India was below the 1 million mark. July was the first month in which more than a million infections were reported in India at 1.1 million. Almost 11,400 deaths from the pandemic were recorded in December, the lowest number in seven months. The pandemic claimed fewer lives for the last time in a month in May, when the figure was 4,267. In June, 11,988 deaths were recorded, slightly more than the December number.
December was also the third consecutive month of falling Covid cases and deaths since the pandemic peaked in September. More importantly, daily cases continued to decline during December, with no signs of an increase to date. The seven-day moving average of daily cases stood at 40,868 on November 30. A month later, on December 30, it dropped to almost half of that number to 20,507, indicating that the daily numbers almost dropped by 50% over the course of the month. December was also the second month after October to record a decrease in the seven-day average of daily cases for every day of the month.
Compared to the previous month, December registered a 35% drop in cases. This was the steepest monthly drop on record to date. Cases had fallen 32% in November and 29% in October.
India has so far registered 1,02,87,267 cases of coronavirus, the second highest in the world after the United States. The death toll from the viral infection stood at 1.48,976 as of Thursday night, according to data collected from the states. India has the third highest number of victims of the pandemic after the United States (3.5 lakh) and Brazil (1.9 lakh).
By Thursday, the last day of the year, 19,886 cases had been reported as of around midnight, and numbers have yet to be received from Assam and Meghalaya. The day's death toll stood at 255. There were almost 2.55 lakhs of active cases in the country, although currently the number has dropped by a few thousand every day. The number of recovered patients stood at 9.88 lakh, which represents 96% of all cases.

Conflict Prevention in the 21st Century: an evening with Noel Lateef and The Lafayette Club
Posted byprotocolmagazine1 October 25, 2018 Posted inGlobal, North America, ReviewsTags:conflictprevention, education, foreignpolicy, worldleaders
While heavy rain poured outside on Thursday, 11 October, students and members of the Lafayette Club committee gathered in the society room of St Andrews' Hotel du Vin Thursday evening to hear Noel Lateef speak on the importance of conflict prevention in the 21st century. Mr Lateef, longstanding president of the Foreign Policy Association based in New York, came to St Andrews as part of the Lafayette Club's speaker series that seeks to bring world leaders and industry experts together with university students.

The Foreign Policy Association is a New York based private, nonprofit, non-partisan educational organization which is devoted to the education of American citizens in international affairs. At its founding in 1918, the association was known as the 'League of Free Nations Association' and was established to support US President Woodrow Wilson's vision of world peace as described in his famous Fourteen Points speech. Additionally, its American founders hoped to increase support for United States' membership in the international organization described at the time in the Versailles Treaty and Paris Peace Conference of 1919.
Today, the organization has built upon its roots as an arena for supporting policy to becoming an educational body more generally. Not only does the organization seek to develop a deep awareness and understanding of how global issues affect the United States, but also to teach citizens media literacy in order to craft informed decisions on foreign policy. Beyond education, the Foreign Policy Association is often the principal venue for foreign policy addresses by presidents and foreign ministers from around the world.
With 24 years of experience as president of the Foreign Policy Association and as author to a number of publications, Noel Lateef was able to share both personal and professional insights into how to navigate the increasingly multi-polar international political system from a lens of conflict and conflict prevention. While Mr Lateef's speech largely focused on the role of the United Nations as a body that promotes conflict prevention, he also offered personal anecdotes on his journey to becoming president of the Foreign Policy Association.
As the son of an American foreign service officer, international politics have always been heavily imbued in Mr Lateef's life. For his bachelor's degree, Mr Lateef attended the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs at Princeton University where he graduated magna cum laude. During this time, he pursued an internship at the US State Department, which he said changed his mind about pursuing a career in foreign service. Instead, he then went on to study public policy at Yale Law School before working for a judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit and later as chairman of the Bowery Savings Bank.
Mr Lateef's 45-minute speech opened with an anecdote about the Japanese Prime Minister that both highlighted the Foreign Policy Association as an esteemed arena for foreign politicians and showcased the organization's direct effects on policy matters. In this specific example, the prime minister was misquoted in his speech, sponsored by the Foreign Policy Association, by the media which then led to front page headlines and a hefty drop in stocks that very day.
While a large part of Mr Lateef's introductory remarks consisted of his past experiences and narratives about various visitors and speakers to the Foreign Policy Association, his speech quickly narrowed in on his ideas surrounding conflict and conflict prevention in the 21st century. He stressed that conflict prevention is crucial for determining whether human civilization will still exist in the next hundred years. While conflict has been a pressing issue for civilization for thousands of years, in this age of globalization and rapid modernization, conflict has become all the more detrimental, not to mention the growing implications of global warming on why and how modern conflicts will be fought.
Staying true to the origins of the Foreign Policy Association, Mr Lateef discussed at length the history of the United Nations in peace building and its important role as a preventer of conflict. Mr Lateef strongly believes that conflict prevention rests heavily in the prioritization of education, which he pointed out is an ideal upheld in the preamble to the United Nation's Education, Scientific, and Cultural Organization's (UNESCO)constitution: 'since war begins in the minds of men, it is in the minds of men that the defences of peace must be constructed'.
Although conflict still persists, Mr Lateef did highlight the ways in which society has improved its abilities to prevent conflict ranging from the early detection of danger, accurate and fast information collection, cooperation between across countries and agencies, fast action, and early mediation. Mr Lateef's speech ended on a somewhat positive train of thought, which stressed both the progress made and the importance of imagination. The talk concluded with Mr Lateef arguing that the end of the Cold War should be the most esteemed example of the art of the possible.
Overall, Mr Lateef's speech was extremely informative and equally eye-opening. It should be said, however, that the potency of Mr Lateef's message may have been lost at times in the overuse of anecdotes and in-text quotes that occasionally seemed to not have a clear connection. Nonetheless, Mr Lateef is an extremely intelligent and insightful speaker who joins the esteemed ranks of the Lafayette Club's speakers.

Humankind loves declaring 'war' on everything and now we have the data to prove it
By Inga Ting
Updated October 16, 2015 — 9.47am first published October 13, 2015 — 1.29pm
War in Syria. Suicide bombings in Iraq. Uprising in the Ukraine. You could be forgiven for thinking we live in a time of escalating conflict.
Well, here's some good news. Crises are at their lowest level since the 1960s – at least, according to an analysis of words used in English-language texts published between 1908 and 2008.
The data comes from Google's Ngram Viewer, a tool that tracks how often a word or phrase appears in Google's enormous corpus of digitised books.
It shows occurrences of the phrase "[any noun] crisis" (eg. housing crisis, migrant crisis) per million two-word phrases (known as 2-grams or bi-grams) published in English-language texts. The latest available data is from 2008.
Crisis peaked in the mid-1970s, remained high throughout the 1980s, but has fallen swiftly and steadily over the past 20 years.
On the other hand, it seems we don't need a crisis to declare a war (or vice versa).
Our penchant for declaring war on stuff has never been stronger, with declarations of "war on [random noun]" since 2001 eclipsing war talk during both World Wars. They're represented by the first two peaks on the graph. (We'll get to that third one in a moment.)
Things get more intriguing when we break them down. Here are the top 10 nouns we declared war on over the past century.
We really didn't like Germany (shown in orange) for a long time there – pretty much for the entire first half of the 20th century.
Poverty (blue) was enemy number one during the hippy heyday of the 1960s – that's the third bump in that second chart – but by the 1990s, our guns were pointed at a new foe: drugs (yellow).
The flat and falling lines of the 1980s and 1990s suggest that by the turn of the century, we were a society in search of a new adversary.
And find one we did. No enemy of the previous century comes close to our 21st century foes, terror and terrorism. Clamour about terror and terrorism was three times as loud in 2008 as mutterings about Germany at their peak in 1944.
As for crises, the chart below suggests we began the 20th century looking boldly outwards but have since retreated inwards.
Doom and gloom warnings about world crisis (shown in orange) dominated from the first World War through to the 1956 crisis in the Suez canal (pink).
Missile crisis (yellow) topped the chart briefly in the late 1960s (think: Cold War and Cuban missile crisis), before it was dwarfed by the century's worst crisis: the energy crisis. (The term "oil crisis", shown in red, refers to the same series of shocks to the West, set into motion by the 1973 Arab oil embargo.)
Fears of a debt crisis dominated from the mid-1980s to the mid-2000s, but in 2007 a new crisis crept to the forefront of our language.
In this confused climate of heightened war set against dwindling disaster, it makes some sense that today we talk most about identity crisis.

i havent really been around much, but i'm a little busy with school
which is what i need some help with
i'm doing an english assignment, and i have to compare a poem and a song
the poem i've chosen is 'Der Lattenzaun' by Christian Morgenstern
the verison i'm using is the english version 'The Pickett Fence'
for my assignment i need a bunch of other peoples interpretations of whet they think the poem is about. different ages and sexes and stuff
and i figured that here would be a good place to get some interesting interpretations
heres the poem:
One time there was a picket fence
with space to gze from hence to thence.
An architect who saw this sight
approached it suddenly one night,
removed the spaces from the fence,
and built from them a residence.
The picket fence stood there dumbfounded
with pickets wholly unsurrounded,
a view so loathsome and obscene,
the Senate had to intervene.
The Architect, however, flew
to Afri- or Americoo.
anyone who actually feels like replying to this, thankyou

Here is the interpretation of a 21 year old caucasian, North American male:
In the first stanza you're introduced to a fence. Fences are typically used to divide two pieces of land or property, so it could be seen as a barrier. However, this fence has "space to gaze from hence to thence," so I believe the poet was trying to convey the sense that this fence is not really acting as a barrier, and that in fact there is nothing limiting or negative about it. The image in my mind is of a nicely painted white fence on a green hillside.
In the second stanza the reader is introduced to an architect, a person whose purpose is to design things. However, the first thing this architect does (in the third stanza) is take the fence apart. This seems like a bit of a contradiction... someone who's supposed to build things taking things apart. I believe this is similar to the fence, which is not acting like a typical fence.
The fourth stanza evokes a sense of sympathy for the fence in the reader. You get the sense that the fence was just sitting there, minding its own business, and it was helpless against the plans of the architect. This feeling is further compounded in the fifth stanza, where you learn that the fence had "a view so loathsome and obscene".
There is some justice done in the second half of the fifth stanza, where "the Senate had to intervene". This gives the reader a sense that the fence will be avenged, and the architect will be punished for his destruction of a helpless object.
The final stanza contradicts the fifth stanza, which brings the poem in a sense back to where it started (with a contradiction). The architect escapes punishment, which seems unjust since the governing body had determined that he should be punished.
My personal interpretation is that this poem represents the shortcomings of the justice system. Coming from an educational background in political and environmental science, I can relate this to the way humanity has altered, taken advantage of, and destroyed the natural world. So often a natural resource or habitat or species is exploited by humans, who only care about their own needs. Often times, other parties realize that action must be taken to fix the situation, yet nothing can be done because of the limitations of the legal system.
Anyways, that's just my two cents. Perhaps you should contact Sandrine about his, I'm sure she'd have an excellent answer for you!
thankyou so much, that was exactly what i needed
it'll help so much

well, the song is caled 'Flying High' by DJ Splash
i think its a remix, but its much better than the original
in my assignment, i've written what i think its about, for the 'reader interpretation' and then i just needed a couple of other opinions of what other people thought it was about
and since you did a spectacular analysis of the poem, it'll be perfect for my assignment
thankyou again
here's the lyrics:
I'll be back and then you'll be mine
Time is passing by, you gotta make it through the night
until the morning you say "Goodbye, for now darling."
Maybe you will come back, on another day you'll do that
Go away with the wind, it takes you now
We are flying high,
saying farewell would be a lie
There's no need tonight to spend a sleepless lonely night
There's no way to say goodbye
You're denying, why?
It's night, you gotta be the fly
flying to the lamp, burning her little chances in the light.
She'll never learn to bite, but for now you cannot fight
and you're here to do it tight, burn your wings now and cry
Long time passed to do that and you plainly got a chance to be my mistress, you had to go.
If you want to fly on, please drop out before fall, waiting for the last call, and you never say no
thankyou soooo so much
Is your song choice set in stone? If I were you I'd switch it. This isn't a very "deep" song. It's all about the euphoria of being in love ("flying high") and it says that straight up. I don't really think there's much to interpret in it. Just a suggestion. If you like it, go with it, but my advice is to switch it.
I just watched a video of "Flying High" by DJ Splash on Youtube... hmmmm techno. I guess the "DJ" part of his name should've given it away (could've been rap too I guess). Going back to what I said about changing your song choice, I would perhaps stay away from techno or anything like that. The lyrics are usually pretty shallow and very repetitive... this style of music is all about the beat, not deep lyrics that will make you think. I would consider choosing some kind of ballad or other more lyrical song. Stay away from rap, pop, run of the mill rock. Look for something by a great songwriter known for their lyrics instead. Once again, just my advice.

Then I wanted to also include images by adding this code:
NSTextAttachment *attachment = [[NSTextAttachment alloc] init];
attachment.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"196H"];
NSAttributedString *attributedString = [NSAttributedString attributedStringWithAttachment:attachment];

And at the and of the array after the last item this:
, attributedString

I'm calling this code in my viewController file:
[self.aFactBook populateLabel:self.Label];

So this code works well but

*

*I need to include over 200+ images

*Is there any better solution than working like this?

Thanks for your help!

A: It depends on how much performance means to you. Sometimes it is really worthy to cache 200 images so you can operate them well, sometimes 200 images could be extended to 10 000 images and then you'd want to store  their names and load them only when needed instead of keeping all of them in memory.
Maybe you should consider using something like database whether it is SQLite or CoreData.

A: The best way to keep your data is to use databases. I personally recommend SQLite, it is very easy and powerful DMS. Also, if you need further expand in the future with the database you will not need to change the code ,just the database's records.
You can use BLOB( data type ) for images and VARCHAR for your facts( those data types are for the building of the database's table.
