Even as most of the 50,000-odd employees at Satyam Computer Services remain concerned about job and pay cuts, 250 to 300 employees working on the Merrill Lynch project have accepted an offer from Bank of America (BofA), the bank that bought the sub-prime meltdown-hit investment bank in September last year.
The first known instance of what is known as "rebadging", these employees will join the BofA office at Hitec City between April 2 and 8. They have been given salary raises of around 10 per cent and a bonus depending on their skill sets (Rs 1 lakh in some cases). "The bonus will be given after about 45 days of joining," said an associate.
Most of the employees on the Merrill Lynch project work from Satyam's Bahadurpally office. Their work is to provide infrastructure support and handle the database of the financial management and advisory firm.
Bank of America has become the first U.S. bank to withdraw job offers made to foreign M.B.A. students graduating from U.S. business schools this summer, according to The Financial Times. The reason, the newspaper said, is that the government's Troubled Asset Relief Program prevents financial institutions that have received bailout money from applying for H1-B visas for highly skilled immigrants if they have recently made US workers redundant.
"Recent changes in legislation made it necessary for Bank of America to rescind job offers it had made to students requiring H-1B sponsorship," a Bank of America spokesman told the newspaper.
New York state's top legal officer and U.S. Rep. Barney Frank demanded Monday that Bank of America Corp provide more details on $6.9 billion in bonuses paid in 2008, including $3.6 billion at the former Merrill Lynch & Co.
The billions of dollars paid to executives is a controversial issue in the recession, and New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo has been putting pressure for months on the banks that received U.S. government money to stay afloat.
A legal tussle between Cuomo's office and the bank has wound up in state court, with Bank of America (BAC, Fortune 500) telling a judge it would suffer "grave harm" if forced to reveal bonus data, citing concerns over competitors poaching staff and privacy.
sources familiar with the matter. The account contributes around $40 million to Satyam's yearly revenues.
ML had sent a team in early February to assess the ground situation at Satyam's headquarters. The bank had told the Satyam team of their intention of handing over most of the IT services to another vendor. ET had reported in its edition dated January 31, that ML would be sending its team to the company's office.
TCS currently provides application, maintenance and development work for the bank in the field of transaction documentation, legacy application, capital markets trading and financial accounting among others. TCS and Satyam also share financial services major Citi as a client.
Bank of America, which took over Merrill in September 2008, is also a TCS client. Industry officials say that when the two banks start their system and application integration process, TCS is likely to gain from this.
Bank of America/Merrill Lynch has dished out pink slips to 40 bankers in the wealth management division of DSP Merrill Lynch India, officially called the Global Private Client (GPC). This includes the head of investment products and head of investment research for India and other senior financial advisors. Curiously, the head of wealth management for Asia Pacific put in his papers last Friday, raising doubts about the timing of his exit.
Responding to a mail from ET, DSP Merrill Lynch India said: "As announced on December 11th, Bank of America expects to eliminate 30,000-35,000 positions over the next three years." Bank of America acquired Merrill Lynch in September 2008 for $50 billion. A senior executive at the bank, speaking on condition of anonymity, said that given the state of the economy and markets this was an inevitable exercise and that more layoffs would happen over the next few weeks.
Merrill Lynch Global Wealth Management, a unit of Bank of America Corp. (BAC), plans to cut less than 10%, or under 1,000, support staff positions in its branch offices, according to people familiar with the situation.
The cuts, which will include some client associate and sales assistant positions, come as Merrill recently let go several hundred rookie brokers based both on performance and an effort to reduce costs.
The firm has also lost several key executives, including former Chief Executive John Thain; Robert McCann, former head of the wealth management unit; and Greg Fleming, former chief operating officer and the No. 2 executive at Merrill.
The firm has more than 8,000 support staff in its branches.
Bank of America is getting ready to announce its next round of layoffs. According to the Financial Times, the bank is going to cut up to 4,000 employees. The layoffs will come from the capital markets business, which was recently merged with Merrill Lynch. Over the next three years, Bank of America is expected to cut about 35,000 jobs as a result of the Merrill Lynch merger. Officials have not said when the latest round of cuts will take place.
It looks like the job cuts at Bank of America could be three times as bad as expected. Business television station CNBC is reporting that up to 30,000 jobs could be cut as Bank of America merges with Merrill Lynch.
If there's any good news in this for Charlotte, it's that the vast majority of the job cuts are supposed to be in New York City.
UNC Charlotte professor Tony Plath says most of the cuts are rumored to be in investment banking.
"It's going to hit the Merrill Lynch side harder than it will hit the general bank," Plath told us. Plath added that even the cuts on the Bank of America side are likely to be mostly out of New York, because that's where B of A's investment banking is headquartered.
Still, Plath says if 30,000 jobs are cut, there's no way Charlotte can escape unscathed. He estimates the Queen City will lose anywhere from a few hundred to a few thousand jobs, but says it's too early to tell.
Plath says the timing of these cuts couldn't be worse. They'll likely take effect late this year into the first quarter of next year. During that first quarter, Wells Fargo is also expected to announce job cuts when it completes its expected takeover of Wachovia.
"Both of those layoff rounds are going to hit the market in Charlotte at the same time," Plath said. "It's going to be a bad first quarter here."
Plath says the effect of Wells Fargo/Wachovia job cuts is likely to hit the Queen City harder than the Bank of America cuts will -- meaning the bad news for Charlotte is far from over.

Trump claimed Oakland's mayor doesn't want released immigrants. Her response: We welcome all.
By Kayla Epstein
Kayla Epstein
Embedded audience editor on the National desk
President Trump threw more fuel on the flames of the immigration debate Saturday night in tweets that focused on Democrats and news outlets that had reported on his administration's plan to relocate migrants to "sanctuary cities."
Trump specifically singled out the mayor of Oakland, Libby Schaaf (D), who had criticized a proposed policy to relocate detained immigrants to sanctuary cities as an "abuse of power and public resources."
Then the president claimed the mayor does not actually want the detained immigrants to be released into her city. In fact, Schaaf's administration strengthened Oakland's sanctuary policy in 2018 and had warned residents last year of a coming raid by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
On Saturday night, she responded to Trump's attack with a clear message: "Oakland welcomes all."
It's time to stop fanning hate and division @realDonaldTrump - I've been consistent and clear: #Oakland welcomes all, no matter where you came from or how you got here. https://t.co/KWl2P9ps3k
— Libby Schaaf (@LibbySchaaf) April 14, 2019
"Democrats must change the Immigration Laws FAST," Trump tweeted earlier. "If not, Sanctuary Cities must immediately ACT to take care of the Illegal Immigrants."
The president characterized the undocumented migrants as "gang members, drug dealers, human traffickers, and criminals of all shapes, sizes and kinds," a frequent trope in his immigration rhetoric that has faced widespread criticism from Democrats and immigration advocates.
"Sanctuary cities" are jurisdictions that limit, to various degrees, how much their local law enforcement will work with federal immigration authorities to deport undocumented immigrants. Trump frequently invokes these cities in his calls for stricter immigration laws, and they serve as symbols for what he believes are failed immigration policies.
The exchange between the president and Oakland's mayor comes after another week of twists and turns in the Trump's quest to implement his immigration agenda.
Last week, The Washington Post reported the White House had considered a plan to release migrants into sanctuary cities as a way to put pressure on Democratic politicians. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's (D-Calif) district was reportedly on the list of places considered. The policy was rebuffed by ICE.
"This was just a suggestion that was floated and rejected, which ended any further discussion," the White House statement said in response to the story.
But Trump later contradicted his aides and embraced the policy in tweets on Friday.
Due to the fact that Democrats are unwilling to change our very dangerous immigration laws, we are indeed, as reported, giving strong considerations to placing Illegal Immigrants in Sanctuary Cities only....
Schaaf appeared on CNN and NPR's "Weekend Edition" to condemn the president's proposal, saying she was "proud to be the mayor of a sanctuary city."
"This is an outrageous abuse of power and public resources," she said Friday on CNN. "The idea that the administration thought in any way that it would be acceptable to use families and children, human beings, as political retribution against their enemies should infuriate every American regardless of political affiliation."
Since his first days in office, Trump has attempted to rein in sanctuary cities or states, arguing that they create security threats for the American citizens living there. He has attempted to withhold their federal funding, and his administration has sued states such as California, which passed controversial statewide sanctuary laws in 2017 in an effort to blunt Trump's immigration policies. Most of Trump's attempts have been blocked by courts.
Trump's immigration policies have been a failure. Neither he nor Democrats have much of a solution to the current problem.

Good Ol' Al Sharpton, he never misses an opportunity to race bait. Over the weekend the supposed "reverend" who doesn't believe in the commandment about bearing false witness, criticized the National Rifle Association for not defending the gun rights of two black men killed by police last week. Sharpton claimed the NRA believes "the Second Amendment is for whites only." But today the NRA is fighting back against Sharpton's idiotic and unsubstantiated charges.
In his weekly address the self-important professional bigot gave at his Harlem headquarters, Sharpton as usual declared himself judge and jury declaring that punishing police officers for misconduct is the only way to prevent incidents like last week's fatal encounters involving Alton Sterling in Louisiana and Philando Castile in Minnesota. Apparently the leader of two anti-Semitic pogroms in NYC already knows what happened in those two cases, even though the investigations are not nearly close to being completed. "Both of them were killed by police based on 'they had a gun,'" Sharpton said.

Q: How do I approach rendering text in a fully sprite based game? (ActionScript 3) I've created a Canvas class which has an Array of multiple instances of CanvasEntity. Each of these has a skin property which is a reference to a previously created instance of BitmapData, representing some graphics that can be used.
The Canvas runs through this list each frame to perform a render:

*

*lock() the canvas

*Clear the canvas using fillRect().

*Loop through the aforementioned Array and use copyPixels() on each of the instances' skin properties.

*unlock() the canvas.

This is all fine, but now I'm a bit unsure of the best way to approach rendering text in the same fashion.
Do I need to make a sprite sheet with all of my glyphs on it, just like I do for all the frames of any other object? Or is there a simpler way to create a piece of BitmapData that will represent these?
Making a sprite sheets seems painful as there would need to be individual objects representing each glyph to be rendered.
So far I have this as a sprite sheet:

A: The average game doesn't contain that many text. It's generally not a performance critical part that requires to much optimization. You could just create a normal sprite, add a TextField with the text and style you need and copy that graphic to canvas. Maybe chache the text graphics if you need them more often.
If you want some animation (character-by-character-appears-with-annoying-sound-of-typewriter-effect), you probably should go with the sprite sheet. But you can create that dynamically just once, using the same technique. Loop through every possible character of your font, draw it to your sheet.

A: You don't need an individual object for every character. If you want a low-cost text display, have a single class that extends CanvasEntity and accepts a string in the constructor, copies relevant data from the spritesheet to the skin.

Q: Javascript refresh array I am using ajax to call DB and using DOM to create the HTML for a small weather widget.
So I have an Array of element called _weather.
Its populate fine, however I am having touble to refresh the data in the array.
I have a button that if clicked call this function and pass the city name _town
My idea is to remove the value from array and call the function _checkNewTown to display the city I just removed from the array.
var _update_city = function(_town){

    ntown = _town;
    town = _town;

    _weather.prototype.removeByValue = function (town) {
        for (var i = 0; i < this.length; i++) {
            var c = this[i];
            if (c == town || (town.equals && town.equals(c))) {
                this.splice(i, 1);
                break;
            }
        }
    };

    _checkNewTown(ntown);

}

However its not working and its returning
SCRIPT5007: Unable to set value of the property 'removeByValue': object is null or undefined
weather_widget.js, line 121 character 3

I tried change it but could not figure out what to use.
Any help will be apprecciated

A: You can use Array.prototype.filter to remove items from an array like so:
var weather = [{city: 'city1', ....}, ....];
var city = 'city1';

var filtered = weather.filter(function (i) {
  return i.city !== city;
});

Alonso hoping for Spain debut and 'dream' World Cup call
Chelsea defender Marcos Alonso could make his Spain debut against Argentina on Tuesday, with the World Cup in Russia on the horizon.

Chelsea defender Marcos Alonso - Getty Images
Marcos Alonso is hoping to impress on his Spain debut to keep his World Cup dream alive.
The Chelsea defender was handed his first international call-up for friendlies against Germany and Argentina, but he was left on the bench for Friday's clash with the world champions.
Alonso is waiting to see if his opportunity will come against Argentina in Madrid on Tuesday, the former Fiorentina star looking to make a lasting impression.
"I am very happy to be here and I'm proud to represent my country," he told Marca. "Only the coach knows if I will get some minutes on the field.
"The scene and the opponent could not be better and it will be a beautiful test.
"It would be a dream to play in Russia, the dream of any footballer. I will focus on my club and the game at the [Wanda] Metropolitano."
Chelsea team-mate Alvaro Morata is not involved during his international break, but Alonso is hopeful the forward can have an impact for both club and country in the weeks and months to come.
"[Morata] has had a little problem with his back, but he has already recovered," the full-back said. "He will be key for Chelsea in these next months.
"He is an important player in the national team and [coach Julen] Lopetegui will have to decide.
"In England, after winning the Premier League, it is normal to have a difficult year, especially with the level that Manchester City are maintaining throughout the season.
"Now we have an important end of the year, to qualify for the Champions League and fight for the FA Cup. We're looking forward to it."
Chelsea are five points off fourth-placed Tottenham, who they face at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.

Yemen War Death Toll Surpasses 70,000
By ACLED
Acled Data 18 April 2019
Region: Middle East & North Africa
Theme: Media Disinformation, US NATO War Agenda
More than 10,000 people have been reported killed in Yemen over the last five months, bringing the war's total death toll to over 70,000 since 2016 according to data collated by the Armed Conflict Location & Event Data Project (ACLED). While overall reported fatalities have trended downward this year amidst the UN-backed peace process, lethal fighting continues across the country and has even intensified in key governorates like Taiz and Hajjah.
Total conflict fatalities:
ACLED records over 70,200 total reported fatalities1 from 1 January 2016 to 13 April 2019
More than 7,600 have been reported so far in 2019:
Approximately 2,350 in January; 1,930 in February; 2,330 in March; and 1,000 so far in April
Fatality rates have shifted significantly across multiple governorates between the last quarter of 2018 and the first quarter of 2019:
Reported fatalities increased most dramatically in Al Jawf and in Hajjah, though also in Taiz, Sadah, and Ad Dali
They dropped most significantly in Hodeidah, though also in Marib, Sana'a, and Al Bayda
Civilian fatalities:
ACLED records 3,155 direct attacks targeting civilians resulting in over 7,000 reported civilian fatalities2 since 2016
The Saudi-led coalition and its allies are responsible for the highest number of reported civilian fatalities from direct targeting: over 4,800 since 2016
The Houthis and their allies are responsible for over 1,300 reported civilian fatalities from direct targeting
Notably, so far in quarter one of 2019, reported civilian fatalities are at their lowest point since the third quarter of 2017
Still, nearly 380 civilian fatalities have been reported this year stemming from direct targeting
Flashpoints (spotlight on three governorates):
Reported fatalities continue to decline dramatically in Hodeidah:
Reported combat fatalities dropped 89% from the last quarter of 2018 to the first quarter of 2019 thus far (from nearly 2,500 reported fatalities to fewer than 300)
Reported civilian fatalities dropped from nearly 250 to approximately 100
Deadly fighting has spiked in Taiz:
Reported combat fatalities have risen from approximately 850 in the last quarter of 2018 to over 1,000 in the first quarter of 2019, a more than 20% rise
Reported fatalities from civilian targeting have risen from approximately 40 to over 60 in the same period
In Hajjah, violence is reaching record highs:
Over 1,100 combat fatalities have been reported in the first quarter of 2019 — the highest numbers ACLED has recorded in Hajjah since the start of 2016
Over 80 fatalities from direct civilian targeting have been reported in the same quarter — the second-highest number of reported civilian fatalities recorded for the governorate
1 Fatality numbers are often the most poorly reported component of conflict data. While ACLED codes the most conservative reports of fatality counts to minimize over-counting, this does not account for biases that exist around fatality counts at-large. As such, these figures should be considered estimates, rather than exact counts. Find more information about ACLED's methodology for coding fatalities here.
2 This figure includes only civilians killed as a result of direct civilian targeting. It does not include collateral civilian fatalities. As such, the number is assumed to represent an underestimate of total conflict-related civilian fatalities in Yemen.

Diesel Sales Receive Boost In Used Car Market
Wed 15th Aug 2018
Whilst the diesel car market has generally taken a battering in 2018, latest figures show that the used car market is providing something of a safe haven for the maligned fuel engines.
The latest figures released by the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders for the second quarter of 2018 show that used diesel car sales rose by 3.2 per cent, with sales of 898,573 units. Petrol sales dropped in the used car market, but demand for alternative fuel and electric vehicles has risen by more than a quarter, though that is not as high as the new car market. Sales of electric vehicles in the used car market are affected by the limited availability of new powertrain tech.
Meanwhile sales of new model diesels are still on a sharp decline, with a drop of 24 per cent.
Speaking about the return to form of diesel for used cars, Mike Hawes, Chief Executive of the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders said: "It's great to see the used car sector remain in robust health as motorists take advantage of the exciting high-tech models filtering down from the new sector – including some of the latest low emission diesel and alternatively fuelled vehicles," says SMMT chief exec Mike Hawes.
"However, with used sales so closely reflecting the new car market, some cooling is expected over the coming months. Given fleet renewal is the fastest way to improve air quality and reduce CO2, we need greater business and consumer confidence to keep both markets moving."
Want to continue diesel's revival? CarSupermarket.com has plenty of diesel options available in its stock of over 2000 cars.

Q: Connection to memory (R) I have to repeatedly serialize (big) R objects. To avoid repeated garbage collecting of the resulting raw vectors (after profiling, it turns out that half of my script running time is spent in gc!) I'd like to ask R to directly write in a memory buffer -- always the same, as after each serialization I'd call a C function with .C that would work directly on this memory buffer; it is the result of this C function that interests me.
Is that possible? How unreasonable is it?
Thanks in advance.

A: I might not have understood your problem,  but why don't you directly use your R object in c++ code using Rcpp.  There will be no copy and you don't not need any serialization.

MLK's daughter weighs in on her father's dream in a polarized America


"I remember thinking, 'I'm about to beat this b**** up.'"
Anyone who grew up watching the Disney Channel in the 2000s can't forget the weekend when Demi Lovato left the Camp Rock tour to get treatment for "emotional and physical issues" after inexplicably punching one of her backup dancers in the face while boarding a plane in Peru.
At the time, the public didn't know much of anything about her struggles with an eating disorder, drugs, or bipolar disorder, so the incident sent shockwaves through her young fanbase. At the time fans speculated the incident was connected with fallout from her breakup with Joe Jonas.
But in Demi's new YouTube documentary Simply Complicated, she opened up about that night back in 2010 and got really honest about what really led up to the backup dancer punching incident. Turns out that while her complicated relationship with Joe may have played into her mindset at the time, it wasn't directly involved with the incident. It all came down to Demi's hard-partying ways.
"I was in Colombia," Demi said, opening up publicly about what led up to the incident for the first time. "I was on the Camp Rock 2 tour and I invited a bunch of people to dinner — my band and my background dancers."
But the dinner turned quickly into a rager at their hotel. "I paid for all the alcohol," Demi continued. "Somebody ended up getting weed. I was on Adderall and we had trashed the hotel. The hotel was threatening us. They went to some of the dancers and asked what had happened."
It was one of Demi's backup dancers revealing to management that she was secretly using Adderall that sent Demi over the edge. "I think they told on me for using Adderall," Demi revealed. "Somebody told Kevin Jonas Sr. and [my manager] Phil and my dad. I was very upset. I couldn't believe that it happened. Now it was out that I was on Adderall."
The next day, Demi was determined to figure out who "ratted" her out no matter the cost. "I was in a lot of trouble," Demi recounted. "I remember going to Kevin Sr. and saying, 'Listen, I want to thank whoever told on me because I know they were just worried about me and you know I just really want to know who told you.'"
Looking back, Demi knows her actions were manipulative. "I manipulated him into telling me who it was," she admitted. Demi easily convinced Kevin Sr. into telling her the person who told was Alex Welch, better known as Shorty, and Demi was angry because she'd grown close to Alex during the Camp Rock movies and tours.
Demi pictured with Alex Welch (on right).
"I remember thinking, 'I'm about to beat this b**** up,'" Demi said.
And that's what led up to the punch that changed everything. "She had already boarded the plane," Demi recounted. "I just went up to her and it was like a blur... Everyone was freaking out."
Demi seemed to be the only person who wasn't freaking out. After punching Alex, she walked right to her seat and went to sleep. "I just remember going and sitting down [after], texting my mom 'I'm sorry,' and I slept the whole day," she said.
Even though it's sad that this incident ever happened, after living a lie that she was a perfect Disney Channel in the spotlight while she spiraling out of control behind the scenes for so long, it was the moment Demi needed to go through to address her issues. While it certainly wasn't smooth sailing for Demi after she checked into a treatment facility, it did set in motion her long road to recovery, and that's all that matters.
Check out Demi tell the story herself in Simply Complicated below.

Boundary AWS EC2 Plugin
=======================

The Boundary AWS EC2 plugin collects information on AWS [Elastic Compute Cloud](http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/) using the [CloudWatch](http://aws.amazon.com/cloudwatch/) API.

The plugin requires Python 2.6 or later, as well as the [Boto Python library](https://github.com/boto/boto).  [Click here](https://github.com/boto/boto#installation) for Boto installation instructions.

## Metrics

The plugin reports all EC2 metrics reported by CloudWatch.  For a full list of these metrics and their descriptions, see [this AWS documentation article](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudWatch/latest/DeveloperGuide/ec2-metricscollected.html).

**Note:** CloudWatch will not supply values for metrics that do not have any activity.  For example, the NetworkIn metric will not be supplied for periods where there was no network traffic.  In this case, you will see holes in the Boundary graph.  This is normal and a product of how CloudWatch works.

**Note:** CloudWatch reports EC2 metrics in either 60 second or 5 minute periods, depending on metric.  You will only see data appear in Boundary every period for the preceding period.  This is normal and a product of how CloudWatch works.

## Adding the EC2 Plugin to Premium Boundary

1. Login into Boundary Premium
2. Display the settings dialog by clicking on the _settings icon_: ![](src/main/resources/settings_icon.png)
3. Click on the _Plugins_ in the settings dialog.
4. Locate the _aws_ec2_ plugin item and click on the _Install_ button.
5. A confirmation dialog is displayed indicating the plugin was installed successfully, along with the metrics and the dashboards.
6. Click on the _OK_ button to dismiss the dialog.

## Removing the EC2 Plugin from Premium Boundary

1. Login into Boundary Premium
2. Display the settings dialog by clicking on the _settings icon_: ![](src/main/resources/settings_icon.png)
3. Click on the _Plugins_ in the settings dialog which lists the installed plugins.
4. Locate the _aws_ec2_ plugin and click on the item, which then displays the uninstall dialog.
5. Click on the _Uninstall_ button which displays a confirmation dialog along with the details on what metrics and dashboards will be removed.
6. Click on the _Uninstall_ button to perfom the actual uninstall and then click on the _Close_ button to dismiss the dialog.

## Configuration

Once the EC2 plugin is installed, metric collection requires that a _relay_ is installed on the target system. Instructions on how to install a relay for Linux/Unix can found [here](http://premium-documentation.boundary.com/relays), and for Windows [here](http://premium-support.boundary.com/customer/portal/articles/1656465-installing-relay-on-windows).

Before the plugin will collect metrics, you must provide it with a valid AWS Access Key ID and Secret Access Key.  [Click here](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSSimpleQueueService/latest/SQSGettingStartedGuide/AWSCredentials.html) for more information on where to find/generate these keys.  The keys you generate should be for a user with access to both CloudWatch and EC2.

General operations for plugins are described in [this article](http://premium-support.boundary.com/customer/portal/articles/1635550-plugins---how-to).


Munich, October 4, 2018 (kk) - Gerhard Richter's black and white photo pictures from the 1960s are among the artist's internationally most sought-after works. The "Porträt Schniewind" is going to be called up in the auctions at Ketterer Kunst in Munich from 6 - 8 December with an estimate price of € 800,000-1,200,000.
The slightly blurred portrait of the Rhenish businessman and acclaimed art collector Willy Schniewind is part of a small series of portraits that Gerhard Richter made in context of his first solo show and on the initiative of the legendary Duesseldorf gallery owner Alfred Schmela. It is one of three portraits of the recognized sports officer Schniewind. Just as it is the case with this work, one of the two other works also used to be part of the art collection of Fänn and Willy Schniewind. The third version, once in possession of the ZERO artist Günther Uecker, can now be admired at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Next to the technically refined oil painting "Willy Schniewind", the auction also comprises the two other works "Rhombus" and "18.4.88" (estimates up to € 350,000) by the ingenious artist from Dresden.
Günther Uecker's work "Zärtlicher Garten" (Gentle Garden) from 1964 has been estimated at € 600,000-800,000 and is one of the artist's early large-size nail pictures from his ZERO period. The work also leads an array of around a dozen works by Uecker, of which more than half a dozen will be offered with estimates in six-digit realms. The work "Light-Disk (Light Box)" is particularly interesting, as it is one of the artist's very rare engine-driven light disks. The estimate is at € 300,000-400,000.
Ernst Wilhelm Nay's oil painting "Streifen" from 1967 and the "Mäanderlied (28.VII.91/2.VIII.91)" by Georg Baselitz will both enter the race with the same aforementioned estimate price. The latter work, which is particularly impressive for its tremendous format, was executed between July 18 and August 2, 1991 on a canvas that the artist had spread out on the floor of his studio. It is a remarkable art-historical document of the work period that began after 1990 in which the artist once more reverted to the expressive figurative motifs of his "Heroes" from the 1960s, now presented upside down. The work's provenance is just as exciting as the work itself, as it used to be in possession of the internationally acclaimed art dealer Taddeus Ropac. Up until 2015 it was part of the important collection of the publisher Alfred Neven DuMont from Cologne.
In 1921 the Weimar Bauhaus masters created a remarkably diverse portfolio with woodcuts, etchings and colored lithographs. The complete first portfolio with 14 sheets comprises works by Lyonel Feininger, Paul Klee and Oskar Schlemmer and has been estimated at € 150,000-180,000.
Those who would like to call Alexej von Jawlensky's "Abstrakter Kopf: Erleuchtung II" from 1919 their own will have to dig deeper into their pockets, as the oil painting carries an estimate of € 200,000-300,000. The small-size paper work is particularly captivating for a strong composition that is reduced to a minimum as well as its excellent freshness and luminance.
Next to Lovis Corinth's still live "Chrysanthemen im Krug", which is expected to fetch € 180,000-250,000, Carl Hofer's "Hinduknabe" and Otto Dix's "Gletscher im Engadin" from 1938 are two other highlights. The estimate of both is at € 180,000-240,000.
The sculpture section is led by Max Bill's heavy-weight large bronze "strebende kräfte einer kugel" that has been estimated at € 250,000-300,000.
Another sculpture that will guarantee a thrill in the saleroom is Wilhelm Lehmbruck's 90 cm tall "Gebeugter weiblicher Torso" from 1912/13, which is one of the very rare stone casts of this motif. World-wide only one copy is in possession of a public collection. The estimate price for one of the most famous expressionist works by the artist is at € 160,000-180,000.
Apart from several watercolors by Emil Nolde (with estimates up to € 150,000) and paintings by Fritz Winter ("Triebkräfte der Erde" and "Später Sommer", estimates up to € 120,000) and Max Liebermann's "Reiter in einer Allee" (estimate: € 150,000-250,000) as well as Joseph Beuys' "Minneapolis Fragment" (estimate: € 100,000-150,000), other remarkable works come from Stephan Balkenhol, Karin Kneffel, Imi Knoebel, Otto Mueller, Gabriele Münter and Fritz Wotruba.
The family company Ketterer Kunst (www.kettererkunst.com and www.ketterer-internet-auctions.com), with headquarters in Munich and branches in Hamburg, Duesseldorf, Berlin and the USA, was founded in 1954. It is one of the leading European houses for auctions of Fine Art from the 19th to the 21st Century and Rare Books. The 2018 art market review, compiled by artprice.com, ranks Ketterer Kunst on place 19 in the TOP 100 Fine Art Auction Houses worldwide. The auctioneer's clientele predominantly consists of international collectors, art dealers, curators and museums.

About this weekend: Three thoughts
1. THE UFC NEEDS A NEW SUPERSTAR — STAT
Saturday night kickboxing ace Alistair Overeem toppled Brock Lesnar with a series of shots to the midsection, but minutes after the bout, when the WWE star-turned UFC cash cow announced his retirement from the Octagon, the folks running the world's fastest-growing sports league probably felt like they'd been kicked in the gut themselves.
Yes, the UFC is distinct from boxing. Instead of relying on a handful of superstars to generate attention and revenue, the strength of the UFC's brand is the brand itself, and the idea that no individual competitor — whether it's Anderson Silva, Georges St-Pierre or Overeem — is more important than the organization.
Which is true, except that Lesnar generates pay-per-view buys than all of those guys, and even if the UFC doesn't collapse in his absence it'll miss the money he brings in.
It's tough to deny the UFC strength of the brand. After all, Fox wouldn't have signed on for seven years if the UFC's popularity appeared set to fizzle out. But unless last Saturday's card was a blockbuster 2011 figured to be the first year since 2007 that the UFC hasn't held a single event that drew more than 1 million purchases.
And we can attribute that trend to Lesnar's extended absence, since four of the previous five events that attracted 1 million buys featured him in the main event. Predicting the next UFC pay-per-view event to do Mayweather and Pacquiao numbers is an exercise in guesswork.
This isn't to slight any of the UFC's current roster of superstars. Jon Jones is a once-in-a-generation talent with a constantly evolving set of skills, while Anderson Silva is a virtuoso who doesn't seem to age. And St-Pierre is the crossover star the sport has always craved.
But while Jones is a pleasant man who apprehends muggers in his spare time, his personality doesn't polarize — which is key to persuading a few million people to pay to see you bash somebody's face in.
If Silva were going to undergo a Pacquiao-esque transformation from foreign fight phenom to mainstream marketing marvel he would have done it by now.
And St-Pierre's surgically repaired knee will sideline him for most of 2012, creating yet another superstar void the UFC needs to fill.
None of that means the UFC will disappear from view, but without Lesnar it will have a significantly smaller pay-per-view footprint.
2. FUNNY HOW "TEBOW TIME"…
Runs out when opponents blitz and play man-to-man.
Especially in the fourth quarter.
I don't say this to celebrate the Broncos' loss to the chiefs, or to revel in Tebow's putrid stat line (6-for-22, 60 yards and an pick, if you're counting).
It's just an observation from someone who's glad to see the runaway Tebow hype lose momentum.
At last.
Remember his magical fourth-quarter passer rating? A few short weeks ago it was the highest in the league.
If you were a Tebow "believer" you knew that stat came from Tebow's unique ability to "turn it on when it counts," and that his never-before-seen combination of grit, faith and will-to-win would propel Denver to a fourth-quarter comeback and a thrilling win.
You could point out that the entire team needs to play well to make a comeback happen, and that Tebow's compiled his magical fourth quarter stats against soft zone defenses played by teams content to trade yardage for time off the clock, but that would make you a hater at best and non-believer at worst.
Personally, I've never seen Tebow as a figure worthy of belief or disbelief. He's not Jesus dying for our sins, or even Santa Claus delivering presents. He's a football player — a great one in college and deeply flawed one as a pro.
Prevent defenses in "Tebow Time" have allowed him to gloss over those flaws, but when defenses keep the pressure cranked up for four quarters Tebow's numbers suffer. If you don't believe me, believe Sunday's stat line, or the two picks and the fumble he served up in the final 17 minutes against the Bills in week 16.
That's not a coincidence, or a non-believer nit-picking.
It's game-planning and execution.
It's defenses cracking the Tebow code and making adjustments.
It's football.
While we've been celebrating Tebow's legendary will to win, we've forgotten that the other team wants to win too. Just as badly as Tebow does.
When everything else is equal skill beats will, and Tebow's skill needs a ton of work.
But I'm not asking you to believe me.
Just watch the Broncos' last two games and believe your eyes.
3. A NICKNAME FOR VICTOR CRUZ AND ELI MANNING
How about "El Gran Combo"?
Two simple reasons for this one.
First, Cruz can salsa and he isn't shy about showing off his steps every time he scores. If you know me, you know I love my salsa, so it didn't take Cruz long to become my favourite NFLer taller than 5-foot-9.
And second?
Cruz and Manning have connected for nine receptions, 342 yards and two season-defining touchdowns over the last two weeks, and have been doing Brujería to defenses all season long.
Amazing thing about Cruz is that he played just three games as a rookie, and didn't catch a single pass.
This year he has 82 grabs for 1,536 yards and 9 scores, stats that somehow didn't get him to the Pro Bowl but will put him in the playoffs.
It's as if the Giants suddenly realized what El Gran Combo knew years ago:
Sin Salsa no Hay Paraiso.

Mr BrokeSocialite (@MrTeeBeeEss) says:
Pithy analysis from you as usual. I loved your assessment of Lesnar/Overeem. I was unaware of Lesnar's PPV ratings. I'm kind of new to MMA, but I have an amateur wrestling background, not rasslin'. lol.
This is a stretch for the boxing analogy, but isn't this just another instance of "great white hype." I can't win so I'm going home? Lesnar's lack of resolve really bothers me as a former wrestler. Wouldn't he be better served, by going back down and having a few more fights to enhance his skill set? Jon Jones is a former wrestler who has used those skills to open the door to MMA. Jones has also worked on his striking ability to become a more well rounded fighter. Lesnar appears to think this route is too arduous for some one of his lofty status.
Loved the skill beats will. I'm going to steal that one from you.
I'm now in the process of renouncing my membership in the chuch of Teezus. (sorry Rodimus Prime) I've now joined the church of Breesus!
Keep up the good work on All Balls Don't Bounce!
Morgan Campbell says:
Thanks for the feedback!
I dunno that it's a great white hype thing since the UFC is already full of white guys and white fans it's not like they need to inflate the credentials of undeserving white dudes for the sake of racial pride. With Lesnar it was a case of wanting to capitalize on the audience he brought with him from Rasslin, and I can't argue with that strategy…clearly it worked.
Seems like Lesnar's biggest problem was that he never got used to getting hit. It's a tough skill to master as an adult, and not one you want to learn on the job when you're fighting at the highest level of the sport. He probably would be better served with some fights against lesser dudes just to build his skill set BUT at 34 he's too old for remedial work, and WAY to high profile to engage in a string of skill-building undercard fights…
Thanks again for the comment

As students return to classes, Emory is getting back into the swing of things this September with a new season of exciting arts events for the campus community and the general public alike. From film screenings and dance performances to quartet concerts and guest artist lectures, there is something for everyone to enjoy.
Emory Cinematheque returns for the fall semester with film series "Federico Fellini: A Centennial Celebration." Weekly screenings of Fellini's work begin Aug. 30 and take place every Wednesday evening at 7:30 p.m. in White Hall 208. September screenings include "La Strada/The Road" (1954) and "La Notti di Cabiria/Nights of Cabiria" (1957). One of the most widely acclaimed Italian filmmakers of the 20th century, Fellini worked as a writer and director across 40 years. Four of his films won the Best Foreign Film Award at the Academy Awards and Fellini himself won a Lifetime Achievement Award in 1993. If you are a film buff or have interest in cinema classics, you won't want to miss this series. All screenings are free and open to the public. This series is co-sponsored by the Michael C. Carlos Museum.
Dance meets martial arts in "meta/physical," an evening of dance featuring works choreographed by Emory Dance faculty member Julio Medina and guest artist Nadya Zeitlin. Medina's work explores concepts of space, time and identity, using techniques from martial arts to counter and heal from attacks rooted in colonialism. Zeitlin's work is inspired by the unique architecture of Atlanta's Central Library, which was designed in Brutalist style by Bauhaus architect Marcel Breuer. There will be two performances on Friday, Sept. 9, and Saturday, Sept. 10, both at 7:30 p.m. Performances take place at the Dance Studio in the Schwartz Center for Performing Arts and tickets are on sale now.
Visits to the Carlos Museum are extra fun with family-friendly programming like Sunday FUNdays (Sept. 4) or afternoon tea and scones at AntiquiTEA (Tuesday, Sept. 6). On Friday, Sept. 9, Emory students are invited to Student Studio to create their own clay pot inspired by the African Galleries' large, ceramic water vessel from the Makonde people of Mozambique. Admission is free and first come, first served, while supplies last.
In conjunction with "Making an Impression: The Art and Craft of Ancient Engraved Gemstones," Jonathan Master, associate professor of classics, will lead readers through two evenings (Monday, Sept. 12, and Monday, Sept. 19, at 7:30 p.m.) of discussion around a series of short texts that situate gems within the broader Roman discourse of wealth and luxury. This Carlos Reads series will explore the corrosive effects of Rome's tremendous wealth as well as the human cost of gems. Space is limited and registration is required by calling 404 727-6118. The two-part series costs $40 for Carlos Museum members and $60 for nonmembers.
On Thursday, Sept. 15, at 7:30 p.m., Chase Kahwinhut Earles discusses his decades-long effort to help revive, master and honor ancestral Caddo pottery traditions in order to establish a path forward as a contemporary artist and develop a modern narrative. This lecture, entitled "Caddo Ceramic Traditions and Trajectories," is presented in collaboration with the Atlanta Beltline's Art on the Beltline project.
Earles will also lead a ceramic workshop for adults on Sunday, Sept. 17, beginning at 10 a.m. Organized in collaboration with the Atlanta Beltline's Art on the Beltline project, the workshop costs $120 for Carlos Museum members and $150 for nonmembers. Space is limited and registration is required.
In other family-friendly activities, children of all ages can engage with the art at the Carlos Museum on Saturday, Sept. 17, at 2 p.m. during Artful Stories (ages 3-6) and Sunday, Sept. 18, at the Children's Workshop (ages 8-12). Artful Stories invites children with an accompanying adult to explore the Art of the America galleries after hearing the story of a young girl's discovery of shapes all around her in the book "Round Is a Tortilla: A Book of Shapes" by Roseanne Thong. Atlanta quilter Zachary Francois leads the Kuba Patterns and Shapes Workshop, drawing inspiration from the work of Black artists from many different cultures and time periods. Registration is required for both of these events. They each cost $20 for Carlos Museum members and $30 for nonmembers.
The Emory Chamber Music Society of Atlanta kicks off its John and Linda Cooke Noontime Series on Friday, Sept. 9, in the Emerson Hall of the Schwartz Center for Performing Arts. This free 12 p.m. concert features Emory's string quartet-in-residence, the Vega Quartet, and pianist William Ransom performing Schumann's Piano Quintet and Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue.
On Sunday Sept. 11, nationally renowned singer-pianist duo Bradley Howard (tenor and music faculty member) and Lee Thompson (piano) present "Desire & Delusion: A Recital." This concert features works such as Robert Schumann's "Dichterliebe," John David Earnest's "War Dreams" and Maurice Ravel's "Don Quichotte à Dulcinée." Admission is free.
Emory Chamber Music Society of Atlanta celebrates its 30th anniversary Saturday, Sept. 17, at 8 p.m. in the Emerson Concert Hall of the Schwartz Center for Performing Arts. The concert will feature Brahms' "Variations on a Theme of Haydn for 2 Pianos;" Ravel's "String Quartet;" Barber's glorious "Adagio for Strings" and Mendelssohn's irrepressible "Octet for Strings."
The 20th anniversary of the Flora Glenn Candler Concert Series opens Friday, Sept, 23, with the Atlanta premiere of a collaboration between composer Richard Danielpour and former U.S. Poet Laureate Rita Dove, "A Standing Witness." Written for the Music from Copland House ensemble and world-renowned mezzo soprano Susan Graham, this epic song cycle comprises a sweeping retrospective of momentous events in American history over the last half-century. Tickets are on sale now.
Emory's Creative Writing Department kicks off its reading series for the 2022-2023 academic year with renowned prose writer, Jamaica Kincaid. On Monday, Sept. 19, Kinkaid delivers the Phyllis Wheatley Reading at 6:30 p.m. (location to be announced). Earlier that day, at 1:30 p.m., there will be a colloquium in the Kemp Malone Library (N301 Callaway). The event is co-sponsored by the Department of African American Studies.

Since its debut in 1873, whoever has worn Levi's products has always embodied its personal lifestyle.
From the look of workmen in the Californian gold mines to the committed hearts who sit in their bath for that original shrink to fit look. Levi's® Tailor Shop represents the evolution of this concept/idea that has been promoted by Hangar Design Group trough a series of events that took place in Milan. Hundreds of young people/students and customers who joined the event had the possibility to personalise their favourite item and get a unique result.


Just how much can you cram inside a slim sandwich of metal and glass? Thanks to advancements in manufacturing and silicon, apparently a lot. That does seem to be the case with the iPhone 8, which is going to be full of screen, full of sensors, and full of data storage. Those chastising Apple for holding on to its 16 GB models for so long should now take note. It has gone the opposite extreme and might put out one with a whopping 512 GB of storage.
There have been very few criticisms of the iPhone that has persisted through the years. The battery problem has more or less been addressed, but data storage complaint still remain. It was only just recently that Apple finally dropped a 16 GB option from its lineup. And it still refuses to add a microSD card slot. With this new leak, you might not need to. If you can afford it, that is.
Take it with a grain of salt, but the latest information coming from China's Weibo social network would have us believe that the iPhone 8 will come in three storage configurations: 64, 256, and 512 GB. Yes, no 32 or even 128 GB. This is definitely a big leap for Apple but one that would also easily differentiate the iPhone 8 from, say, the iPhone 7s Plus, as if that weren't easy enough already.
The leak also names the manufacturers who will be behind those memory modules. Sandisk and Toshiba will supposedly supply both 64 and 256 GB memory while the 512 GB module will be provided by Samsung and Hynix. Curiously, this is the first time Sandisk's name has been mentioned in this aspect.
Apple, however, isn't being as generous when it comes to RAM, which isn't at all surprising. All models of the iPhone 8, as well as the iPhone 7s Plus, will be getting 3 GB of RAM. The iPhone 7s, however, will still remain with 2 GB only.
