The Difference Between Alone and Isolated
Katie Li May 11, 2012
Muse came and went and, as I wrote in my last entry, I returned to my writing desk.
There are subtleties of aloneness that I had not considered in my last post. After the conference, I can see the difference: I am as alone as ever but far less isolated than I was a week ago.
I am more connected with writers and literary professionals than I was before Muse. I have spent most of my writing time this week hardly writing at all, but maintaining correspondence with the people I met over the weekend. Actually, between the twitter and the email and the status updates I started feeling like this–
I hit critical mass when I saw the news about Obama's statement regarding his support for same-sex marriage. I was also halfway through reading Committed, Elizabeth Gilbert's follow-up to Eat,Pray, Love where she considers western attitudes about matrimony as she herself prepares for her second marriage. With my head filled with new trivial about the legal, emotional, and community implications of marriage, I couldn't come up with a coherent statement to show my support for his support, or my disappointment in our culture as a whole that this is even a point of contention.
I had to step away from the computer, put my smart phone down, and walk away.
Where did I go?
The Museum of Fine Arts. Really, what better place to unplug than a museum of hushed galleries filled with masterpieces that silently demand your attention. Maybe demand is the wrong word. I paused in a room filled with impressionist paintings where work by Van Gogh and Monet and Degas shared the walls with the same humility. Like– "yeah– we're here now. We were made by these super cool artists that lived 100 years ago and are now respected all around the world and probably will be for a while. It's cool."
I stopped in that particular room to think for a while.
A lot of writers complain that writing is isolating. After hibernating all winter with my manuscript-in-progress, I know first hand how lonely writing can be. But it doesn't have to be. I can recall a workshop I attended where the instructor asked students to list all the stereotypes associated with writers. We came up with–
Troubled, pained, alcoholic, romantic, emotional, misunderstood, privileged, indulgent.
With that kind of model, it's no wonder that writers isolate themselves from others. As tempting as it can be to continue working alone, where no one will judge or argue, isolation can not be the exit for an artist.
At the conference last week, keynote speaker Richard Nash noted the reader, "completes the text." The same way Monet's lily ponds needed me and the dozens of other people milling in the gallery to be seen and appreciated and understood, or even disregarded, a writer's work is incomplete without the reader to act as a witness, taking action by giving the story a place to exist within his or her imagination.
In that way, Nash noted, books are much more like video games than movies. We can passively watch movies, sponging in the story through visual and auditory details, but in books or video games we are required to take action, participate.
Chuck Palahniuk shared a similar sentiment during his Muse keynote speech three years ago. Palahniuk did not use writing as an excuse to check out of the world, but a reason to be a part of it. Saying yes to every party or reading or function he was invited to, Palahniuk would rush off to the bathroom to write little notes to himself about conversations or characters for future stories, but ultimately, built connections that would lead to a successful career.
There's no better example of this than Amanda Palmer, who launched her kickstarter campaign to raise $100,000 to promote her new album, and exceeded her goal in the first few hours. With over 10,000 contributors, she has raised a half million dollars and still has the rest of the month to get more support. All because she has worked her ass off, created wonderful music, and built meaningful connections with fans and fellow artists.
The lesson here is to jump in, do what you love, talk to people about it, share your work. Mistakes will be made, that's a given. Have thick enough skin to take criticism but stay open to feedback. Give feedback to other artists and musicians and writers and entrepreneurs. There's always room for improvement and we can help each other.
Get connected, but don't forget to unplug– there's whole lot of paintings in the world, quietly waiting for you.

Q: Ошибка в синтаксисе Подскажите пожалуйста, где допустил ошибку?
    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ';', expecting '(' in .......
Сам код:
     $(document).ready(function() <?php echo "#jpId".jPlayer.ready.function; ?>); - ошибка
    },
    supplied: "m4a, oga",
    swfPath: "/jPlayer/js"
  });
});

A: У вас ошибка не jquery, а php. Все, что вы эхаете, должно либо быть переменной со строкой и строкоприводимым объектом, либо заключено в кавычки. У вас же в кавычки взят только jpId, остальное воспринимается как константы, а function как объявление функции, которая и ожидает открывающую скобку.
     $(document).ready(function() {<?php echo '"#jpId".jPlayer.ready.function;' ?>);
    },
    supplied: "m4a, oga",
    swfPath: "/jPlayer/js"
  });
});

В принципе, этот код тоже не будет работать, но уже на стороне js, потому что я не знаю, что он должен делать, а в текущей версии это не будет валидным js.
A: Может все-таки имелось ввиду:
<?php echo '"#jpId".jPlayer.ready.function'; ?>

A tornado watch means conditions might support development of a tornado related to weather bands from Hurricane Michael.
>> Ongoing coverage of Hurricane Michael
The Third Judicial Circuit has announced that the Suwannee County Courthouse will be closed Thursday.
• Water looks to have started flooding Dock Street in Cedar Key. Dock Street is known for several local restaurants, which had employees boarding up windows and moving cooking equipment to second floors Tuesday afternoon. A live stream of the flooding in Cedar Key can be viewed here.

"Sheriff (Sadie) Darnell is in touch with sheriffs in the Panhandle and with the state emergency operation center. We don't think we are going to have much here but we are we are prepared to go to the Panhandle if we get a mutual aid request," Forgey said. "It's a definite possibility, if it is as strong as they are saying. Us and Jacksonville are the first two two big counties outside of the affected area that would be able to be pulled from."
Forgey said ASO may be sending law enforcement and communications staff to Bay County. He added that Sgt. Brett Rhodenizer, an ASO spokesman and a Florida National Guard commander, has already been deployed and is working on planning the aircraft response for the guard. Rhodenizer is a helicopter pilot and flies Black Hawk choppers for the guard.

Levy County's coastal area including Cedar Key and Yankeetown/Inglis still has an evacuation in effect but damage at this point appears minimal, said David Peaton, assistant emergency management director.
"We have another tide cycle to come in and water is pretty high out there, but so far so good with no reports of major damage," Peaton said. "The damage assessment team is out there to do an initial look and we'll send them out again in the morning."
Bronson Elementary School was set up as a shelter but few people showed up, Peaton said.
So far only minor flooding has occurred on some streets in Cedar Key as Hurricane Michael churns in the Gulf of Mexico. City Hall receptionist said no problems have been reported.
"The next high tide is at 3:36 and that is what we are waiting on," Sharp said.

Legacy Libraries Maria Àngels Anglada d'Abadal, H.D.
"I thought to myself, 'If it is true that everyone has his own star in the sky mine must be remote, dark and meaningless. Perhaps I never had a star at all'" (pg. 91).
"What comforted me was the prospect of oblivion after death. The thought of an after-life frightened and fatigued me. I had never been able to adapt myself to the world in which I was now living. Of what use would another world be to me?" (pg. 99).
I enjoyed this novel, it was like reading a nightmare. The narrator is a tortured man and witnessing his descent is captivating. The passage on masks in the second half of the novel reminded me of The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge by Rainer Maria Rilke.
This novel is unique compared to other works I have read relating to madness like Hunger by Knut Hamsun or The Temple of the Golden Pavilion by Yukio Mishima. In some ways the protagonist of The Blind Owl is like the main character of Stefan Grabinski's short story The Area in which the character is haunted by himself, the phantoms originate inside him. Stefan Grabinski is another author like Sadegh Hedayat that has been compared to Edgar Allan Poe.
"I had become like a madman and I derived an exquisite pleasure from the pain I felt. It was a pleasure which transcended human experience, a pleasure which only I was capable of feeling and which the gods themselves, if they existed, could not have experienced to such a degree" (pg. 112).
A friend once told me Sadegh Hedayat wanted the book itself to be the experience and not a book about an experience. I couldn't agree more. So what was my Blind Owl experience? With every page I felt as if I was spiraling down through my subconscious and unconscious until I plunged into the collective unconscious. A female figure in a black cloak and a meeting of eyes, shinny, alluring, sensuous eyes – the anima? Another turn and there's an ancient old man with white hair and long white beard with the index finger of his left hand pressed against his lips – the wisdom archetype? And yet another turn and I was walking in a fantastic landscape of trees and hills of geometrical shapes: cylinders, perfect cones, truncated cones – a dream or hallucination? And there are the eyes again and the ancient old man with his index finger pressed against his lips – a dream or hallucination or a reading of The Blind Owl? I put the book down and walk outside and the landscape is fantastic: all the trees and hills are cylinders, perfect cones and truncated cones and I see up ahead a female figure in a cloak. I was warned by Porochista Khakpour in his preface to The Blind Owl. And now you've been warned.
A tale of one man's isolation, the novel contains a maze of symbols, recurring images, social commentary, allusions to opium-induced states, contemplations of the human condition, interjections on art, and references to literary and religious texts—all of which have, for decades, made it fertile ground for critical interpretation.
In life there are certain sores that, like a canker, gnaw at the soul in solitude and diminish it.
There are sores which slowly erode the mind in solitude like a kind of canker.
Considered one of the most important works of modern Iranian literature, The Blind Owl is a haunting tale of loss and spiritual degradation. Replete with potent symbolism and terrifying surrealistic imagery, Sadegh Hedayat's masterpice details a young man's despair after losing a mysterious lover. As the narrator gradually drifts into madness, the reader becomes caught in the sandstorm of Hedayat's bleak vision of the human condition.
A young man, distraught over the loss of a mysterious lover, begins a slow decline into madness.

The Goldilocks Test: Why China Is Just Right
Ryan McMunn
Founder & CEO BRIC Language Systems
China, with its bustling economy and continuing growth is managing to create their own version of Silicon Valley. Add in the financial support of the Chinese government and their desire to take risks, it's only a matter of time before China's Silicon Valley will bypass the U.S. tech-hub.
China's venture capital economy is booming, and there is no denying the money pouring in. In 2015, government-backed venture funds swelled to $231 billion, tripling the amount under management in a single year. To put that into perspective, that's five times the amount raised by venture firms worldwide.
So what is it like to be a foreign venture capitalist looking at startups in China? I spoke with three active venture capitalists with funds focused on China to find out.
Surging venture capital.
"Chinese entrepreneurs have greater access to venture capital than anyone in the world, and the risk-appetite in China now rivals the United States," says Phillip Kingston, Trimantium Capital's managing director.
Related: China's Effect on the U.S. VC Game
For Phillip Kingston's fund which focuses on fin-tech and health-tech startups that have the potential to scale globally, it isn't enough to be a source of capital for startups in China. With the nation's own government pouring over $338 billion into China's startup economy since 2015, venture capital firms such as Trimantium Capital see a nation that is more sophisticated in its venture capital strategy than anywhere on earth.
"Not only are ideas getting bolder and more original, but highly sophisticated domestic funds are being established at a dizzying pace. Globally there's unrivaled scale in China by sovereign entities, high net-worth families and smart diversified Chinese listed corporations, and I expect this to continue right through 2016 and beyond," says Kingston.
With capital so readily available, it's little wonder that China would have its own Silicon Valley. In a 2016 report, the Chinese city of Shenzhen emerged as the nation's priciest real estate market, with the average home prices elevating the city over Beijing and Shanghai. Dubbed "China's Silicon Valley," this is where about 10 percent of all new startups are born, finding a home alongside the nation's tech giants including Tencent.
"There is still a ton of action concentrated in the large ecosystems such as Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Hangzhou and maybe Chengdu, Wuhan," says Rui Ma, 500 Startups Partner in China.
"However there is a 'power law' at work here and Beijing really dominates in terms of number of deals as well as active investors. Beijing is to Shanghai as Silicon Valley is to New York City in terms of the level of activity - anywhere between 2 to 4 times depending on what report you read," says Ma.
The biggest draw for investors in China, however, is likely to be the exit.
"Chinese venture capital firms have several accepted ways of exiting," says Ma.
Related: 7 Tips For Businesses Looking for EB-5 Funding
"For early stage investors (usually Pre-Series A), they tend to exit to series A or B investors. That usually doesn't happen in the US, but is very common in China. Because there are now so many listed companies (on NEEQ and on bigger main boards) who raised money through an IPO or follow on offerings, and because they trade at very high P/E or revenue multiples (at least compared to the U.S.), acquisitions are also now common exits."
But in spite of the perks of an exit, playing in China's startup scene doesn't come without its risks. High prices for startups due to the oversupply of capital relative to deal-flow is dangerous, says Ma, and the general slowdown of the economy is also a huge source of worry that affects all investors and players in the economy."
Confidence and tag-teaming in cross-border deals.
For U.S. investors and entrepreneurs looking to conquer China's Silicon Valley, the good news is that there are more cross-border deals. There is even a trend now for Chinese companies to acquire U.S. startups (as happened for example, in the case of Grindr).
"The quality of deal flow in China is on par with the United States and Israel," says Kingston. "Few Chinese companies focus beyond the Chinese-speaking world. The most likely transition will be more globally focused Chinese companies wanting to sell to Chinese outside of China, which means that there are more cross-border deals seeking investors like us."
There are also U.S. investors who are aggressively building relationships in Asia with partners who understand international markets -- from banking to bitcoin.
Related: The Sharing Economy Is Absolutely Blowing Up in China
"Software, and more specifically bitcoin and blockchain technology are permeating every corner of the world -- this is not a silo phenomenon but rather a global technology with global reach, so it's important for us to build as many investment and entrepreneurial bridges to Australia and Asia as possible," says Cameron Winklevoss, co-founder of Winklevoss Capital & Gemini.
With the feverish confidence of Chinese venture capitalists and entrepreneurs giving Silicon Valley a run for its money, it's become clear that the nation is no longer the country that merely manufactured your iPhone. Big name firms, like 500 Startups, Sequoia Capital and Trimantium Capital are investing in China and the world is realizing why -- that for the first time -- China might soon overtake our own Silicon Valley.
David provides constructive insight to help businesses focus on their company growth, build brand awareness and know when and how to raise money.

Delicate Edible Birds
A triumphant collection of literary short stories from the author of the New York Times bestselling The Monsters of Templeton.
FROM THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF FATES AND FURIES
Lauren Groff's critically acclaimed The Monsters of Templeton was shortlisted for the Orange Broadband Award for New Writers 2008, and critics hailed her as an enormous talent and a writer to watch. In Delicate Edible Birds, she fulfils that promise.
Delicate Edible Birds includes nine stories of vastly different styles and structures. 'L. De Bard and Aliette' recreates the tale of Abelard and Heloise in New York during the 1918 flu epidemic; 'Lucky Chow Fun' returns to Templeton, the setting of Groff's debut novel, for a contemporary account of what happens to outsiders in a small, insular town; the title story of Delicate Edible Birds is a harrowing, powerfully moving drama about a group of war correspondents, a lone woman among them, who fall prey to a frightening man in the French countryside while fleeing the Nazis.
With a dazzling array of voices and settings, Delicate Edible Birds will cement Lauren Groff's reputation as one of the foremost talents of her generation.
Lauren Groff is the author of three New York Times bestselling novels – Fates and Furies (named by Barack Obama as his favourite book of 2015), The Monsters of Templeton and Arcadia – as well as the story collection Delicate Edible Birds. She graduated from Amherst College and has an MFA in fiction from the University of Wisconsin–Madison. Groff's fiction has won the Pushcart Prize and the PEN/O. Henry Award, among others, and has been shortlisted for the Orange Award for New Writers and the Los Angeles Times Book Prize. In 2017, she was named one of Granta's Best of Young American Novelists. Her stories have appeared in publications including The New Yorker, the Atlantic,One Story and Ploughshares, and in several of the annual TheBest New American Stories anthologies. She lives in Gainesville, Florida, with her husband and two sons.
Also by Lauren Groff
Praise for Delicate Edible Birds
...begins with a story set in the sort of mythical small town of plenty that Krasikov's characters might dream of...Here Groff peers behind the white picket fence to reveal a nastier underside; other stories take in World War II, and transpose the tale of Heloise And Abelard to New York in 1918.
Groff's first collection of stories, Delicate Edible Birds, demonstrates the often surprising ways that quality can bear fruit. Bringing together nine stories, it moves almost effortlessly through different locales, from Templeton to Argentina, post-first world war New York to contemporary America ... in her strongest writing, Groff echoes the magic of her gothic forebears
Delicate Edible Birds is wonderfully imaginative, subtle and precise, brimming over with brave and fascinating women... A dazzling collection to make all those readers who are wary of short stories think again.

Back to School in the Future
The School by the Sound in Copenhagen, Denmark.
Lee Mindel
A century old glass-enclosed handicapped ramp for children stands exactly as it was designed, and is still in use. Beyond merely accommodating, it is an expression of pride and dignity for children with disabilities.
Designed by the great Danish architect Kaj Gottlob in the 1930s, Copenhagen's School by the Sound (Skolen ved Sundet) is an open-air elementary school for children with significant motor disabilities, and stands and operates today in its original condition, without renovation, nearly 100 years later.
The new concept of distance-educating, created during the tuberculosis epidemic of the 1930s, finds its built form at Copenhagen's School by the Sound; an aerie with a naturally-lit ceiling containing a compass, a map of the city on the inlaid floor and a joyously colorful elevated stage.
The original design of the building remains relevant in that it was built according to the principles of wellness and accessibility. Understanding that light and air can be positively stimulating to young minds and bodies, Gottlob designed both a light-filled indoor primary school and an adjacent open-air school for children whose physical or mental conditions required outdoor access, creating an inclusive environment where wellness is honored alongside education.
The perforated handrail in this yellow stair creates punctuations of sunny light and air.
Open-air architecture was becoming popular in design in the early 1900s, due to the widespread rise of tuberculosis. The design of School by the Sound parallels that of other tuberculosis sanatoriums, such as Alvar Aalto's Paimio Sanatorium (1933), where buildings were designed to prevent and combat disease with good ventilation, light and nature.
A paramount part of the program was accessibility, which Gottlob enforced in the use of large, wide ramps throughout the buildings—a safer solution to stairs that made the school fully handicap accessible and embracing of a wider range of needs from the start.
We are grateful to Gottlob's grandson, Johan Casper Crone—also an architect and Danish historian—who introduced us to the campus during school recess.
During this pandemic, we are anticipating how architecture will adapt to the changing circumstances of our society. We are inspired by Gottlob's School of Sound, which foreshadowed changes in school design and has stood the test of time in its honesty, rigor and quality design.

Q: How to resolve this error Xcode7.3? I want too Generate my .ipa file but its showing on

ERROR:"Code Sign error: No provisioning profiles found: No non–expired
  provisioning profiles were found."

Step:1 I had created apple ID

A: You need to create a App Store or AdHoc provisioning profile using your Distribution Certificate from Apple Developers Portal. Without these, you cannot create a .ipa file for testing. While creating those, you also get chance to select the devices on which you will be allowed to test the .ipa file. And for all this, you will need a paid developer's account.
If you have paid developers account then I will suggest you to go to developer's portal and revoke all the certificates and start from scratch, i.e., from from create bundle identifier.
There is a good guide by Parse to setup all this for push notification. You may follow it, excluding the certificate uploading section and try to resolve your problem.

A: I've made a similar problem. How I fixed it was to login on the apple developer web site to apply and download a profile for your app.
After double-click the download file , you can see the file in organization of the project in Xcode.The name of the bundle id is the type like com.yourname.appname
Move to Target -> General and select the correct Team.
Now go to Project Build Settings -> Code Signing Identity and select just 'iOS Developer' and 'Automatic' in Provisioning Profiles. Your app should now compile and run smoothly.
Hope this helps.


Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders's re-election campaign spent just under $300,000 on private jet use in October, Federal Election Commission (FEC) records show.
"This expense was for transportation for the senator's 9-day, 9-state tour to support Democratic candidates up and down the ballot ahead of Election Day," campaign spokeswoman Arianna Jones told local website VtDigger.com, which first reported on the jet expenses.
"This cost covered the entirety of the tour from Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa, South Carolina, Colorado, Nevada, Arizona, California, and back to Vermont," Jones said.
Climate change is the single greatest threat facing our planet. On Nov 6th, we must show up at the polls from coast to coast and stand with candidates who are willing and ready to accelerate our transition to clean energy, and finally put people before the profits of polluters.
Because flying generates significantly more greenhouse gases than driving, climate hawks generally advocate against taking unnecessary flights.
"The campaign purchased carbon offsets from NativeEnergy to support renewable energy projects and invest in carbon reduction projects to balance out the emissions produced on the trip," Jones told The Daily Caller News Foundation.
"Climate change is a planetary crisis. Our task is clear. We must take on the fossil fuel industry that's largely responsible for global emissions and accelerate our transition toward energy efficiency and sustainable energy sources," Sanders wrote in an Oct. 10 tweet.
Jones said the payment of $4,980 to NativeEnergy will be reflected in the campaign's Dec. 6 filing, which covers activities after Oct. 17.
Sanders, an independent who caucuses with Democrats in Congress, is widely expected to run for president as a Democrat in 2020.

Q: How to iterate a string using while loop in C++? number = 100010001111111

for (int i=0; number.length(); i++) {
    while number[i] == 1 {
    k++;
    }
}

I would like to implement a while-loop as a replacement for the for-loop as shown above.
How could I convert this to a while-loop?

A: Here's a solution for the problem you mentioned in your comment (Problem - 96A)
    #include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
   cout << "Please enter your players situation" << endl;
    std::string str;
   cin >> str;

std::string::size_type i = 0;
int NumbersofAppearances = 0;
int ConsectiveNumberSequence = 7; //You can change that to whatever sequence you like
bool IsDangerous=false;
while (i < str.size())
{

     if(str[i]=='1'  )
     {
         ++NumbersofAppearances;
         //We need to check if we reached the consecutive number or not and save it on a different bool variable
         if(NumbersofAppearances>=ConsectiveNumberSequence)
         IsDangerous=true;
     }
     else
     {
        NumbersofAppearances=0;
     }
    ++i;
}

//print out the end result
if (IsDangerous)
cout <<"YES , this is dangerous"<< endl;
else
cout <<"No, this is not dangerous"<< endl;

   return 0;
}

Nacho Libre: I knew this would be bad. But Jack Black is usually pretty good, and I thought if anyone could pull off a film about a Mexican monk who wants to be a luchadore, it would be him. There are a few funny moments here, but mostly this movie–even with Jack Black in it–stinks.
Empire Falls: I read this book several years ago and just loved it. Richard Russo is amazing. When I found out about this two-part miniseries…and that Paul Newman played the role of Max…and that Russo wrote the screenplay…I knew I had to see it. Newman is perfectly cast. I can't imagine anyone else as a better Max. And although some details from the book were omitted from the movie, for the most part the movie works very well and sticks closely to the book. The one bit whose omission weakened the movie, I think, was the scene in which Francine teaches Miles how to drive. The phrase "power and control" is mentioned in the film (perhaps as a nod to those who've read the book and understand how pivotal it is here) but isn't nearly as meaningful as it could be without the additional background. Still, I highly recommend this movie–though I recommend reading the book first.
Whale Rider: I have finally conquered my personal case of "Movie Guilt." You know what I mean: you get a DVD from Netflix and hold on to it for weeks or months because you just aren't in the mood to watch it (though you do want to watch that movie–just not right this minute), then eventually mail it back unwatched, telling yourself you'll get it another time. Well, this was my third go with Whale Rider, and I'm glad I managed to push through the "not sure if I'm in the mood for this movie right now" barrier. No frenetic editing here–just a beautifully filmed, character-driven story that is unlike most of what's out there. I liked it a lot.
I loved Whale Rider and may have to watch that one again. I'm glad to know about Nacho Libre. I like JB, but I was unsure about this one.
Chris, there are four. I tolerated "School of Rock," but generally concur with you.
I haven't seen "Whale Rider" since the theatrical release, but loved it.
Marsha, I heard the NPR interview with Sheedy et al on Hughes. Hawsum. Thanks!
I like JB when he's being over-the-top JB–as in "School of Rock" (which has the added bonus of starring a Cusack). When he tries to do anything else, it just doesn't work.
I liked Whale Rider too. Also, I'm glad I'm not the only one that sits on a Netflix movie for months. I try not to estimate the average movie rental cost in my head.
I loved Empire Falls and had no idea it was a movie. I'll have to get it. Thanks!

New York has long been a key arbitration centre, second only to London. But it is facing increasing competition from emerging players, particularly Singapore as well as closer neighbours like Houston and new entrant Panama.
The role of New York arbitration in maritime matters began with the city's Dutch roots, according to an earlier article by lawyer Clay Maitland, managing partner of International Registries and chairman of New York Maritime (NYMAR), a member of the New York Maritime Consortium.
The Society of Maritime Arbitrators (SMA) was formed in 1963. It has issued more than 4,200 awards and has 63 arbitrators on its roster hailing from a wide spectrum of roles in the industry.
SMA president Jack Warfield says the group's dynamics have changed over the last 53 years. Compared to the early days when decisions were made over drinks at the bar at New York's Whitehall Club, SMA arbitrations are now more "legalistic".
Yet they remain more flexible and informal than going to court or waging arbitration under the London Maritime Arbitrators Association, which is still considered the leading arbitration body. Parties, for example, can decide the procedures that the arbitration proceedings will follow. That means it tends to be more cost-efficient, says Warfield.
The New York Maritime Consortium, a group of area maritime organisations including the SMA, has been on a mission to bolster the Big Apple's status as a maritime arbitration centre. In that effort, it continues to draw on a video produced some months ago to give an inside look into the city's role in the resolution of shipping disputes.
Dramatic news footage, as part of the "very off-Broadway" mock arbitration hearing surrounding a fictional casualty, shows acrid black smoke billowing into the air near the entrance to New York Harbor after an explosion on a chemical tanker carrying paraffin wax, a cargo that does not ignite in normal circumstances.
Unlike courtroom proceedings, arbitration is held in private, although the SMA stands out as a rare body that makes its decisions available to the public.
The mock arbitration, in which the sides battled over whether the charterer of the stricken chemical tanker had to post security, showed the power of an SMA arbitration panel to issue subpoenas and require such security, and to convene on short notice, Warfield says.
Arbitrations are on the decline globally, as parties work out smaller disputes on their own and as mediation gains wider use.
"We think one of the benefits that we bring to the table is that we have over the years published over 4,200 reasoned awards. There's no other venue that does that," Warfield said. "We think that's helpful but it also helps people settle."
Burke & Parsons lawyer Keith Heard, who has handled cases before SMA arbitration panels and is one of the scriptwriters of the mock arbitration, says that compared to courts, SMA arbitrators bring the benefit of strong commercial knowledge about the industry.
"Judges are very smart and well educated, but they're broad-based," he said a recent presentation of the mock arbitration video in Darien, Connecticut. "Unless they were maritime lawyers in private practice, and very few of them were, they won't have the knowledge of international commerce and trade, the knowledge of ships and the shipping industry that the arbitrators will."
That leads to arbitration proceedings that are typically far quicker than court cases, although one audience member at the Darien event complained of an instance of an arbitration that lasted years.
Legal experts say some in the shipping industry believe SMA arbitrators to have a tendency to favour, for example, charterers or owners in their decision making, and that they are chosen by parties for arbitration panels based on that bias.
But SMA arbitrator Bengt Nergaard, who is an in-house lawyer for Heidmar, does not believe that arbitrators hold such biases. Rather, because SMA awards are public, parties and their attorneys review prior awards and form an opinion about how a particular arbitrator might rule.
"That gives us a great sense of predictability which they don't have in the other arbitration forums," Nergaard said.
He also notes that split decisions make up a minority of awards at the SMA. He says that is rooted in the wide commercial experience among arbitrators, who are made up of chartering executives, technical professionals, brokers, agents, insurance experts and other shipping industry specialties.
"These people who are appointed know the industry very well. Depending on what kind of dispute you have, you want probably to select somebody as your arbitrator who has past experience with that particular segment of the industry," he said. "Because of that, the awards tend to be fairly unanimous."
There also remains a perception by some that one of London's advantages in arbitration is that there are fee-shifting rules that require the losing party to pay legal fees of the winning party.
But while US courts do not have that "loser pays" system, the SMA has long had fee shifting in its rules, says Bruce Paulsen, a maritime lawyer with Seward & Kissel.
"If you adopt the SMA rules, to a certain extent the loser is going to pay," he said. "But for whatever reason, I'm not sure that the knowledge of this is in the marketplace, so despite the fact that's no longer a major advantage for London, some people still think it is."

Authors & Books – Cynthia Vespia
Musa Publishing, which receded into the mists last year, was more than just a publishing house. It was a gathering place for a range of authors, some previously published and others easing their way through that magical doorway for the first time. I also found it a wonderful opportunity to meet writers of other genres and discover, to my great delight, that we weren't so very different in many ways.
But I have to say, I haven't encountered many authors who have also been a model, a trained mixologist (yes, of course I had to look it up!), a licensed private security guard, and an award-winning video editor. It's a wonder Cynthia found any time for writing!
Q1. When did the writing bug first bite you?
I had the bug early on. I used to read a lot so I always liked the escape that stories brought me. It wasn't until high school that I got really interested in becoming a writer. It was after reading Dean Koontz novel Intensity that I decided I wanted to be an author. Years later I actually got Dean to sign that book for me!
Q2. You've had a varied and interesting past. Are there any experiences you draw upon in your writing?
I draw from all experiences in one way or another. That's what writing is…experiences. Specifically, I used my time as a fitness competitor for the training scenes in Demon Hunter and I drew upon my experience as a security guard for Lucky Sevens.
Q3. Given your work as a graphic designer and video editor, do you always have a cinematic approach to your books and stories?
I do but it's more from watching a lot of movie and TV! I mean who among us writers has never visualised their characters as a specific actor, or wondered what their story might look like on the big screen?
Q4. What are your creative goals in 2016?
Creatively I have quite a few series to either finish or continue writing. Demon Huntress will conclude, I've gotten a few ideas to expand my novel Lucky Sevens into a trilogy, and I'm working on 2 brand new series that I will be shopping to publishing houses and agents.
Q5. Tell us about your latest book and how it came to be written.
Well, speaking of new series I just finished writing the first in a 7 part dystopian thriller. Without giving too much away I'll just tell you it is a bit of Game of Thrones meets The Walking Dead! It's about the survivors of World War III. I got the idea for it from watching (not reading) Divergent. I've never read the books so I have no criticism but the movie was lacking for me so much so that I wanted to make a better one…there goes that cinematic approach again!
I also just finished the second in the Demon Huntress series which is available now on Amazon, Smashwords, and Barnes and Noble. The idea for the Huntress came from a fan at one of the conventions I attended. She said "it would be cool if the hunter was a vampire." So I took that suggestion and ran with it! Which is why Khalen struggles so much in the Huntress series.
Q6. How do you handle some of the common challenges writers face?
I love everything about the writing process. And after finishing my new novel I'm excited and passionate about it again. What I struggle with, as most writers probably do, is in the marketing. Writing is a business and the marketplace is so saturated now with self-published novels that it is growing more and more difficult to stand out from the pack. You may have written a great book but if no one can find it then that's where things get tough. And, unfortunately, it has become more of a popularity contest than it is about the writing. How many Facebook likes can you get, or Twitter followers? That becomes word of mouth for a novel but it doesn't necessarily mean the novel is any good. I don't know about you but I don't have all day to be on social media…I'd rather be writing!
Q7. Where can we find your books?
All of my books are across multiple digital platforms. Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Smashwords, Lulu, and my own website www.CynthiaVespia.com where you can also find out more about my graphic design and video services. I do custom cover design and book trailers at an affordable cost.
Q8. Which authors and books continue to inspire you?
Dean Koontz will always be my first love, I just really enjoy his writing style. I'm also a fan of Mary Higgins Clark which is why I've somewhat left the fantasy genre behind and I'm leaning towards more suspense/thrillers. But I'm also always on the lookout for new authors as well.

Place & Foote, General Store
Number 39 on the Burleigh map, this business dated its establishment to 1817 by John McKenley. After passing through the Brown and then the Burgess families, Charles A. Place (1869-1937) and James C. Foote (1867-1939) purchased the firm in 1891. Beyond the usual range of clothing, food, and domestic goods the store was noted for its "most attractive articles in the way of fancy good" (Caledonia Advertiser 10 Jan. 1895).

Home > Manufacturers > GerMan > Catalan Artillery & Barricade
Catalan Artillery & Barricade
Contents 6 figures, 1 gun, 1 CD and 1 diorama piece
Material Plastic (Very Soft)
Colours Brown
Once Imperial forces left Barcelona and Philip V began his siege of the city in 1713 the Catalans had between 200 and 300 gunners to serve their guns - not a large force for so large a task. However the Bourbons were also initially short of artillery, and on 25th October a contingent of troops from Majorca arrived which included a further 53 gunners to bolster the city's defences. Nevertheless with assistance from the French the besiegers gained considerably in strength, and as the noose tightened around the defenders during 1714 a further 200 gunners were raised by taking them from ships in the harbour. As in any siege, artillery was a major player in this long action, but ultimately the guns fell silent when the city was taken by the Bourbons.
Besieging a city requires numbers of heavy guns to make a breach in the defences, but the defenders generally need lighter guns which can be moved around the walls and elsewhere to fight off any assaults, and most of the Catalan artillery was of this type. The gun in this set seems to be of a medium calibre, although exact identification is not possible. Like the uniformed gunners it is fairly typical of the time and suitable for this subject.
For a set labelled as 'artillery' the first surprise here is the gunners, all of which can be seen in the first row. The one solitary gun is served by just three men, one of whom is an officer with a halberd. The second man seems to be carrying a ramrod or mop/sponge, while the third is curious in that he is kneeling and holding what looks like a sword, while another sword is still to be seen in his scabbard. Therefore we only really have one man actually working the gun, which is hardly what you would expect from an artillery set.
The second row contains a drummer and a most unusual pair. The manufacturer says the drummer can be an addition to the infantry sets in this range, which is certainly true, and artillery regiments did have drummers themselves, but if this pose is at the expense of a true gunner then we would have much preferred to see the latter. Beside the drummer is a truly remarkable model. It is of two men engaged in the most close-quarter combat you could wish for. They are literally wrestling, with the man on top trying to injure his opponent with a dagger. The model is very well done and amazingly is all one piece - there is no assembly and no gluing! Naturally a soft mould has been used, but even so this is remarkable as there is no excess plastic to remove. While it is dramatic some may struggle to find a use for such a piece, although we generally like such unusual items and such fights could certainly have occurred, particularly once the Bourbons broke into the city.
Just as much of a surprise is the gun, which is also done in just one single piece. Carriage, barrel and wheels all are one piece, which is certainly the first time we have ever seen such a thing done in this hobby. Despite that the detail on all the figures is pretty reasonable, and while there is a somewhat rough quality to them, the gun in particular is as well detailed on all surfaces as most multi-part guns yet produced. However it should be noted that the plastic used for all the brown items pictured above is the usual soft compound used by GerMan, which makes vulnerable parts such as weapons and ramrods prone to breakage. The sculpting style is not elegant but detail is good and the figures are not unattractive. The barrel, bucket and pile of shot accessories are the standard fare for such sets, although again the bucket has been achieved as one piece.
Dominating the whole set is the large grey diorama piece. Apparently this represents part of a square in Barcelona which was fought over repeatedly at the end of the siege. It measures an impressive 205mm in length and 122mm wide, and once again is in one piece apart from the brick arch, which is easy to add. Made of resin, it is hard and far more sturdy than the figures, and offers an excellent backdrop for placing figures and guns. GerMan say this is part one of three pieces which will combine to form a large model of the square, with the other two parts to come in later sets. It is really well done and could have many uses in all manner of scenarios far beyond the War of the Spanish Succession.
Apart from some paper flags the only other component in this set is a data CD which contains a number of very useful items. First is a fair history of the Barcelona campaign along with extensive notes on the Catalan regiments involved and full details of uniform colours and flags. Also on the disc is a separate guide to the uniforms of the participants and a large number of flag templates which could be printed off and used on the figures. Much of the information and most of the illustrations are taken from the excellent Hernandez/Riart book listed below in our bibliography, although the CD has the advantage of being translated into English. Notes for wargamers are also included, along with some inevitable advertising by GerMan of other sets in this series. Nevertheless modellers and wargamers will find this a remarkably useful resource, and a valuable introduction to the subject for anyone that cannot read Catalan or Spanish.
In summary then this set contains many good things, but it must be said the actual gun and gunners are about the least of its parts. GerMan say that other sets will deliver more artillery to make up for the scarcity of them here, and this seems to be the philosophy at work here - an individual set is not so much covering its subject as an instalment in the wider collection. Whether you approve or disapprove of that approach will depend on what you want to do with these figures, but it is worth knowing what the box contains before parting with your cash. The barricade piece is excellent and the CD really useful, but the gun is only reasonable and the figures most notable for the tiny number of suitable poses. Others have done artillery of this period much better, so while this set has much to offer (which is not reflected in our standardised scoring system), the figures themselves contribute very little to that.

Looking for info on Family Name Folis or Tolis in Eastern Poland
alexstuffbox@...
I am hoping someone here might have any info or thoughts -- I am looking for info on where my great-grandparents lived in Poland in about 1902-1920.
The original family name was either FOLIS or TOLIS. It was changed in Ellis Island, but one of my great-grandfather's brothers used the last name FOLIS and a cousin used TOLIS.
We know my great-grandfather David Folis/ Tolis was conscripted into the Russian Army prior to the revolution in about 19012 & fled to the US, leaving my great-grandmother behind for 8 years. She was Fagabluma Sokol. We also have a photo of her marked Lublin on the back, but because she & my grandmother told me stories of her and her sister smuggling eggs across the Polish/ Russian border, we know they were in a town closer to the border in the east and not near Bialystock...further south.
if anyone has any thoughts or has any info on the name, please let me know.
Alexandra Sokol
ewkent@...
Dear Alexandra Sokol:
I have tried to search for a "D. Folis" and for a "D. Tolis" in the interface for the Ellis Island database at heritage.statueofliberty.org (one needs to register to see ship manifests, but registration is free) , and I have not had luck finding your "David Folis/Tolis" there: the only Folis-es or Tolis-es with a first initial D that I found were Greek or Hungarian. (Therefore, probably not Jews from the Russian Empire.)
I had somewhat-better luck looking for a David Sokol (while the interface found me a David Sokol who arrived in 1904 on the ship König Albert, the manifest image it gave for him didn't have him). I used Ancestry.com to try to find an immigrant David Sokol, and succeeded in finding this David Sokol -- an 18-year-old (if I read correctly, his occupation was given as "tanner") from what may have been written "Krinick" (?) in the Russian Empire (which may have been the town (said to be 28 miles east of Bialystok) whose name is officially spelled "Krynki"). (It seems that he stated he was coming to join an uncle whose last name was written "Salamon" (I can't decipher the 1st name as well) in Newark, New Jersey.)
(My maternal grandmother's parents ("Paat" on immigration records in 1898; later known as "Pat", "Patt", and (eventually) "Pate" in the US) emigrated from Bialystok, but I have learned within the past year or 2 that my grandmother's father's Pat family may have come from Krynki, so I've learned a tiny bit about it -- and apparently it was known for leather-production and tanning.
I'm not sure in which era there was a "Polish/Russian border" -- although Krynki is now near the Polish/Belarusian border, it was (for years before World War I) definitely within the Russian Empire, and I'm not sure what kind of "border" which smugglers would get over would have been near it before World War I. (Maybe the recollection is from 1918 or later?).)
I didn't find any other David Sokols on the Ellis Island database who arrived before 1917, but Ancestry.com has a 3-year-old "Dudio" Sokol who arrived in 1905 (seemingly with the mother), a (9-year-old) David "Sokel" (I think) who arrived in 1906, an 18-year-old David "Sokal" who arrived in 1910 from "Lemberg" (today's Lviv) in Galicia (not in the Russian Empire before World War I), and a 21-year-old "tailor" named David Sokoll who arrived in 1910 said to be from "Psholenka" in the Russian Empire, who stated that he was coming to meet his brother-in-law Adam Stribel (I think) who lived on Canal Street in lower Manhattan.
I think that the David Sokol who came from "Krinick" (and possibly Krynki) is more likely than anyone else I found today; I hope this research will be of help to you (and maybe others who will read this).
(I don't think that I have found much luck finding your great-grandmother "Fagabluma Sokol"; I have found a (34-year-old) Feige Gittel Sokol who arrived in 1911 (stated to have emigrated from Bialystok) with a young son and daughter -- who was said to be meeting a husband in Brooklyn.)
Best wishes for the fall and/or for Jewish Year 5781.
Ethan Kent
(researching Paat/Pat/Patt/Pate from Bialystok (and possibly Krynki), Poland, Kornhauser from Turka (now in Ukraine) -- and possibly Stefkowa (now in Poland), Kantor (probably from Bratslav -- now in Ukraine), Gelperin/Halperin (emigrated from today's Vilnius, Lithuania; father probably from a Krasnoye now in Belarus) -- and (to some degree) related families (including Jaffe in today's Lithuania -- ancestral to Mrs. Gelperin/Halperin (my great-grandmother) )
PS: As you (Alexandra Sokol) may soon find (if someone else hasn't posted about this before me) very few names were "changed in Ellis Island" -- as American immigration workers were instructed to not change the names given on passenger manifests.
Ethan K.
Sherri Bobish
Have you located their U.S. naturalization documents or passenger manifest?
A good site to begin your search is: www.familysearch.org
And, https://stevemorse.org/
Have you searched the databases at JewishGen for records from Poland and other countries? https://www.jewishgen.org/databases/
They may have chosen at some point to change their surname, but their name was not "changed at Ellis Island." Names were sometimes spelled incorrectly when the manifests were written up in Europe.
As to two family members spelling the surname differently, I have seen that previously. It is not unheard of.

It may be time for men to consider switching to Italian-style coffee as a means of reducing their risk of prostate cancer.
A recent study published in the International Journal of Cancer found that the consumption of this beverage has a protective effect on prostate cancer risk.
In an analysis of almost 7,000 men from Italy, those who consumed more than 3 cups a day showed a 53% reduction in prostate cancer disease risk when compared to men who had a daily 0-2 cups of coffee.
"Anyone who knows me well knows that I have always been a huge advocate for the positive health benefits drinking coffee provides", explained Dr. David Samadi.
Prostate cancer remains one of the most common chronic diseases occurring in men particularly over the age of 50. Over the years it has been known that lifestyle modifications have demonstrated a positive impact on the prevention of this disease.
But the impact of coffee consumption on the incidence of the disease is still under debate. In the European Union, the country of Italy has one of the lowest incidences of prostate cancer in comparison to other populations from developed countries showing a higher prostate cancer occurrence.
This study wanted to research and evaluate the effect of Italian-style coffee consumption on prostate cancer risk to gain better knowledge of coffee's influence on this disease.
Italian-style coffee is prepared unfiltered with high-pressure hot water temperature or boiling water that may result in less loss and a greater concentration of bioactive compounds that could be beneficial for reducing prostate cancer.
Coffee's antitumor effect has also been shown in other types of cancer such as bladder, breast, colorectal, esophageal, pancreatic, and liver cancers".

Area Disposal Now Subsidiary of GFL Environmental Group
By Jeremy Coumbes on November 3, 2021 at 3:08pm
Area Disposal Service, Inc. has become a subsidiary of Green For Life Environmental. In letters sent to existing customers, the two companies announced the change that became effective on October 1st.
According to the announcement, changes to service dates and times may change however the company says prior notice will be given to customers before any changes are made.
The look of waste disposal in the area will change over time, as GFL says they will continue to operate under the Area Disposal Service corporate name, but trucks and employee uniforms will change to the GFL green color and logos.
GFL says existing employees will remain at the facility just outside of Jacksonville on Route 104, and customers are asked to continue paying their bills as normal via the Area Disposal website, with an eventual transition to the GFL website for payments.
According to the announcement, GFL is the fourth largest diversified environmental services company in North America. An inquiry with GFL corporate for more information was not returned as of press time.
