"Finding Room for Common Ground: No Enemies, No Hatred"
By Joanne Leedom-Ackerman | September 8, 2017 | 4
The train from Copenhagen airport to Malmö, Sweden took just half an hour across the 21st century Øresund Bridge, which spans five miles of water, then the train dove into 2.5 miles of tunnel. Looking out the window at farmland and the blue waters of the Baltic Sea, I imagined this journey was not so easy 74 years ago with Nazis in pursuit. In 1943 as the Nazis went to sweep Denmark's 7800 Jews into concentration camps, Danish and Swedish citizens rallied, and 7220 people managed to escape in boats across this Sound to nearby Sweden. Thousands landed in Malmö where I was headed for a less dramatic, but still fraught, occasion.
Members of the Independent Chinese PEN Center (ICPC) whose writers live inside and outside mainland China were joining writers from Uyghur PEN, Tibetan PEN and members from Inner Mongolia, along with writers from PEN Turkey and Azerbaijan for the First International Conference of Four-PEN Platform: "Finding Room for Common Ground: No Enemies, No Hatred." Swedish PEN was providing the safe space for debate, discussion and strategies of action on human rights and freedom of expression. Just six weeks before, one of ICPC's founding members and honorary President Nobel Laureate Liu Xiaobo, died in a Chinese prison after serving nine years of an 11-year sentence for drafting Charter 08, a document co-signed by 308 writers and intellectuals calling for a more democratic and free China.
A recognized leader in China's Democracy Movement, Liu Xiaobo's loss was deeply felt. A number of the writers gathered knew and worked with Liu. Most knew at least one fellow writer in prison. Many now live in exile themselves. Almost half of PEN International's writers-in-prison cases are located in the regions represented at the conference.
The theme "No Enemies, No Hatred"—drawn from Liu Xiaobo's final statement at his trial—sparked the debate in Malmö.
Keynote speaker Nobel Laureate Shirin Ebadi challenged, "But I do have enemies and I do feel hatred." Facing death threats from her government in Iran, she had to leave everything behind at age 63 and move to London.
"Liu Xiaobo said he had no hatred and no enemies, but he also never compromised with any dictators," she noted. "We must fight against dictators but our weapons are our pens and are nonviolent. We must not be silent. We can't compromise with governments such as China who would eradicate an 'empty chair' from the internet." [When Liu Xiaobo was unable to attend the Nobel ceremony because he was in prison, the Nobel Committee placed an empty chair on stage to represent him. The Chinese government is said to have censored the term "empty chair" from the internet in China.]
"What is the use of a pen if Liu Xiaobo is dead?" challenged one writer. Another speculated that if Liu Xiaobo had known how his life would end, he would have changed his message. A friend of Liu's assured that he would not because for him no enemies and no hatred was a spiritual commitment.
"Hatred only eats away at a person's intelligence and conscience, and an enemy mentality can poison the spirit of an entire people (as the experience of our country during the Mao era clearly shows)," Liu declared to the court at his trial. "It can lead to cruel and lethal internecine combat, can destroy tolerance and human feeling within a society and can block the progress of a nation toward freedom and democracy…. I hope that I can answer the regime's enmity with utmost benevolence, and can use love to dissipate hate…. No force can block the thirst for freedom that lies within human nature, and some day China, too, will be a nation of laws where human rights are paramount."
Within this frame and this hope, stories of persecution were exchanged among the Tibetan, Uyghur and Mongolian writers in China and among writers from Azerbaijan and Turkey, where over 150 writers and journalists are currently in prison and over 100,000 judges, academics and civil servants have been fired.
Uyghur and Mongolian writers noted that starting September 1 the Uyghur language is banned from all schools.
"The Chinese call all Uyghurs terrorists," said one participant. "I have never seen a gun or a bomb in my life, but my name is on Interpol's list because of my pen. I am a German citizen, and I was in Italy, invited by the Italian Senate when Italian police arrested me because the Chinese government put me on a terrorist list because I speak out for the Uyghurs."
Can one operate against totalitarian, oppressive governments without hatred and enemies? The question remained unresolved, but participants agreed that protest and actions needed to remain nonviolent. To amplify the voices of the writers who were in prison, those outside could publish them, protest to their governments and recognize the writers with awards. Implicit was a belief in the power of culture and ideas to ultimately change society.
The 2016 Liu Xiaobo Courage to Write Award was given at the conference to Hu Shigen and Mahvash Sabet. Writer and lecturer Hu Shigen spent his career in the Democracy Movement since 1989 Tiananmen Square when he was arrested for "counterrevolutionary propaganda" and sentenced to 20 years in prison and after release was arrested again for "subverting state power" and returned for seven and a half years in prison where he still resides. Mahvash Sabet, a teacher and noted Baha'i poet, was detained for her faith and for "acting against the security of the country and corruption on earth" in Iran and is now serving a 20-year sentence in Evin prison in Tehran. Her friend Shirin Ebadi accepted the award on her behalf.
Other cases highlighted by the conference included Ilham Tohti, Nurmuhemmet Yasin, Gulmire Imin, Memetjan Abdulla, Gheyret Niyaz, Zhao Haitong, Omerjan Hasan, Qin Yongmin, Zhang Haitao, and Mehman Aliyev. The gathering also highlighted the situation of Liu Xia, Liu Xiaobo's wife, who is believed still under house arrest. Many are working in the hope of getting her out of China.
When Shirin Ebadi was presented a statue of Liu Xiaobo, she noted that it would sit beside a statue she'd been given of Martin Luther King.
Dr. King's writing of 54 years ago in "Letter from a Birmingham Jail" read at the closing demonstrated the power of ideas and words to endure long after their author has passed away: "We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly."

The Parliamentary Secretary for Disabilities and Carers, Senator Jan McLucas today threw her support behind a student-led campaign at the University of New South Wales to create an accessible campus for students with disability.
Senator McLucas joined students for a barbecue for the launch of the Disability Awareness Campaign, which aims to give students with disability a voice.
Senator McLucas also took questions from students in a panel session alongside respected academic and former Senior Australian of the Year, Ron McCallum AO, who serves on the Committee of Experts for the United Nations Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, and Paralympic swimming gold medallist Prue Watt.
Senator McLucas praised the students driving the event, including the Students with Disabilities Officer, Joel Wilson who expanded the university's previous campaign from a week to a year to raise awareness of the issues students with disability face.
"I congratulate the students and the University for showing leadership and action in creating an inclusive community," Senator McLucas said.
"The University provides a Student Equity and Disabilities Unit and a student appointed to advocate for students with disability.
"The University of New South Wales also has a fully accessible Disability and Welfare Room—a new space for any student with disability or welfare concerns to hang out, relax and chat.
"Yet we know more can always be done. Going to university is an exciting milestone in young people's lives, but the fact is many Australians still face significant barriers when doing so.
"During the year, the Disability Awareness Campaign will tackle disability issues at the university, including accessibility of campuses, services available to students with disability, employment for people with disability following university, and attitudes towards people with disability.
Senator McLucas reiterated the Australian Government's commitment to creating an inclusive and accessible society for people with disability.
"The Federal Labor Government's $1 billion National Disability Insurance Scheme will roll out from mid-year in five launch sites across the country—in the Barwon area in Victoria, the Hunter in New South Wales and across South Australia, Tasmania and the Australian Capital Territory," Senator McLucas said.

Q: Display Android dialog on top of another? I have 2 alert dialogs, dialog A and dialog B. Clicking on one of dialog A's buttons will bring up dialog B. I then want to have a button that will dismiss dialog B and return to dialog A.
Is there a way to do this apart from dialog B performing a showDialog(dialogA) ?
This works, but you can see the reload of dialog A, instead of just returning to an already existing dialog A. Performing a dismiss in dialog B just dismisses both of them.
A minor question, but I'd like to see if there is a way to stack them on top of one another.
Thanks

A: Using the basic dialog building blocks it is not possible to have them stack, you will need to re-show the first dialog.
The reason for this is that when you press a dialog button it internally will dismiss the dialog as part of the process for calling the click handler you assigned for each button in the dialog builder API.
One way around this is to make a custom dialog layout that doesn't have the dismiss behavior, by setting up your own buttons in the layout, rather than using those created by the dialog builder methods. Then in the click handler for you own buttons simply show the second dialog without dismissing the first.
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/dialogs.html#CustomDialog

A: As one reply mentioned, you cannot do this with standard dialogs. But you can do it by making the first dialog be an activity that is styled to look like a dialog, and the second is actually a dialog.
Just set the theme of the activity in your layout like so:
<activity android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Dialog">

See this topic on making an activity that looks like a dialog.
https://stackoverflow.com/a/1979631/602661

A: dismiss the dialog from within itself.
Edit, here is some clearer code.
    alertDialog.setButton("OK", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
            dialog.dismiss();
            return;
        }
    });
    alertDialog.show();

A: You should use inside your custom layout one view/button and based on this view/button click you can create another dailog without cancel first one, if you use builder.setNegativeButton or builder.setPositiveButton your current dialog will be close, my working code like as,
AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(ActivityAppImages.this,R.style.your_style);
LayoutInflater inflater = getLayoutInflater();
View dialoglayout = inflater.inflate(R.layout.your_custom_layout, null);

final Button mButtonCreateOtherDailog = (Button)dialoglayout.findViewById(R.id.txt_create_second_dailog);
    mTextView.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            //create your other dailog here
        }
    });

builder.setView(dialoglayout);
builder.show();

Check COPD registers for misdiagnosed patients, GP practices told
Emma Wilkinson
Practices should check their COPD registers, say researchers, after an audit found patients may be misdiagnosed.
Checks of Welsh GP records carried out by the Royal College of Physicians found most patients did not have a gold-standard spirometry test record, and of those that did a quarter had a result that suggested they did not actually have COPD.
The audit, conducted in 2014/15 in 61% of practices in Wales, found that only 19% of COPD patients had a post-bronchodilator FEV1/FVC recorded, the researchers reported in the British Journal of General Practice.
Among these patients, 25% had incompatible spirometry (FEV1/FVC ≥0.70), suggesting they may have been misdiagnosed.
The researchers calculated that at the time of the audit, as many as 16,000 patients may have been misdiagnosed in Wales.
They also estimated that the total cost of inhalers prescribed for audit patients with incompatible spirometry and no known asthma was approximately £1m per year.
Potential reasons may include issues around correct use of read codes, patients being diagnosed in secondary care, and difficulty accessing tests, the researchers said.
The results have already led to several funded initiatives to improve COPD care in Wales, including an optional practice audit as part of QOF, training offered to more than 1,000 nurses and a quality tool due to be launched later this year to help identify patients who may need review.
But the researchers said similar audits done in individual CCGs in England suggest the problem is not confined to Wales and encouraged practices to check their records.
English practices did not take part in the RCP audit and there is no national programme, although some CCGs have opted to fund work on COPD, the BMA said.
Study leader Dr Marie Fisk from the University of Cambridge said the reasons for the results they found were complex and included the fact that in some patients spirometry is not the right test to do and that interpretation of tests was difficult.
The researchers concluded that 'a concerted effort to determine an accurate diagnosis in these patients is urgently needed' to reduce potential harm and medical costs and there was no reason to think the situation in England would be different.
'Some of the clinical team have run similar audits in their English CCGs and found similar results, so yes we would recommend every English practice runs searches of its QOF register to find who has not had post-bronchodilator spirometry and who has had it but has a result with FEV1/FVC ratio =>0.7.'

God is faithful to hear our prayers. Over and over again, I can tell of the times that He has met me in my moments of need, and given the strength, courage, wisdom, resources or care that I needed most to move forward from my place of deficit. He listens to our every call, and comes close, so that we are made aware of His nearness. Though He may not always answer the way we anticipate, He is always faithful, and forever true. Because His love and faithfulness will not end, neither will my prayers. May we seek the Lord in all things and at all times, for He is faithful to listen to our every petition presented before Him.
For His word won't lie.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You that You hear our every prayer – for mercy, for help and for hope. Thank You that You listen and love us to life. Forgive me for the times that I neglect to present my petitions before You. Teach me to trust You more, as You alone are the One who is my help and my hope in all things and at all times. Show me how to love others in such a way, that I may be Your hands, heart and voice to convey mercy and faithfulness that points straight to You. May many come into a lasting relationship with You. Be glorified O God, as we love You with all that we are, and lift our prayers before You. Amen.

Our job is not to worry about what lies before us, but rather to lift all things up before the Lord. He calls us to present our needs before Him, and thank Him for what He has done. His peace comes when we place all in His hands. The Lord guards our hearts and minds as only He can do, when we choose to live allowing Him to lead us. May we set aside our ways of worry, and present our every petition in prayer. As we ask, He is faithful to answer, and the Lord will guard our hearts and minds with His perfect peace as we pursue a life lived in Him.
Will come all the more.
To all who choose ask.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You that we need not worry about anything, but rather we can come to You and pray about everything. Thank You that we can tell You what we need and thank You for all that You have done. Thank You that Your perfect peace comes and overwhelms us, despite our circumstances. Forgive us for giving way to worry rather than seeking You first. Teach us how to trust You more, so that we would come before You in all things and at all times, knowing that You are far greater than anything we face. Show us how to love in a way that demonstrates Your faithfulness and goodness to those in need of Your perfect peace. May many come into a lasting relationship with You. Be glorified O God, as we set aside worry and present all to You in prayer – trusting that You will be who You say You are in all things. Amen.

Though the same verse, I appreciate the verbiage of the different translations. In our hope, we can be happy, joyful, confident and have reason to rejoice. Our faith in Christ gives us the strength and grace to have patience and stand our ground when trials and trouble come our way. Finally, prayer must be a priority. When we are faithful – devoted to communicate with our Creator, we are best able to recognize our hope which grants us the joy and patience we need to persevere in all things and at all times. May we be ever joyful in the hope we hold in Christ, trusting Him in our trials and continuing to present our prayers of both petition and praise before Him.
but in truth we claim.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You that we have reason to rejoice and be confident in the hope we hold in You. Thank You that You grant us patience through our times of trial, as You show us that You are present and moving on our behalf. Thank You that You made the way for us to come before You to pray, personally – as You know us and call us by name. Forgive us for forgetting the grace and strength that You provide, if only we choose to seek You. Teach us to trust You more, in all things and at all times. Lead us to love others in such a way, that they may see the joy and hope that is held in You. May many come into a lasting relationship with You. Be exalted O God, as we choose to rejoice in our confident hope, have patience in times of trouble, and keep on praying in all things and at all times. Amen.

When worry or anxiety come our way, we are given specific instruction in scripture as to how we are meant to overcome that which has come against us. Rather than fret about our concerns, we are meant to come before Christ, thanking Him for all that He has done, and then asking Him for what we need. We serve a big God, who is far greater than our struggles or shortcomings. He knows our needs and has more than enough to provide for us, personally, when we choose to present our requests before Him. Often our answers do not look the way that we might imagine, but He is always faithful to answer and be present with us. May we choose to set aside worry and anxiety, and prayerfully present our petitions before the Lord with hearts full of thanks and praise. He is good, and His love endures for all time.
that makes our hearts new.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You that we need not worry nor be anxious about anything, but rather in every situation we can come to You and pray to You with hearts full of thanks, and ask You for all that we need. Thank You that You hear our every prayer, and that You are faithful to meet us each time we come before You. Forgive us for allowing worry and anxiety to overwhelm us. Teach us to trust You more, so that we would come to You in the midst of our moments, and give You thanks and praise, presenting our petitions unto You, because You are faithful to hear our every heart cry. Lead us to love others in such a way, that they too, may find reason to give thanks, even in the midst of struggles and storms, because You are always good. May many come into a lasting relationship with You. Be glorified O God, as we choose to give You thanks and present our requests before You, rather than worry over what we cannot control. Amen.

To give all of our worry, distress and uneasiness of mind to Christ, is easier said than done. It has a way of sneaking into the sinews of our soul, and creating claws, that grab hold and grip tightly so that we find ourselves tense without even realizing why. In Philippians 4:6, we are instructed as to how to cast our cares on Christ, so that we can actually allow Him to care for us. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your request to God. In other words, when worry or uneasiness come, pray – tell God about it. We are not meant to carry the burden by ourselves, but rather we are to make our request known before He who is abundantly able to carry the load that we cannot. Yesterday, in my Pastor's Intensive class, we were covering some deep and difficult material. One of our instructors had a great bit of advice. She said that when we come to a crossroads where we want an answer to be black and white, but there clearly isn't one for us to find, we are to hit our knees and worship. God is so much greater than our struggles, that our dependence on Him is what matters most. He cares for us and will meet us in our space of need; however, we must choose to trust.
as shown through His Son.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You that we can cast all of our anxiety on You, because You care for us, and You do not want us to stay stuck in that space. Thank You that we can come to You, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, and present our requests before You. Thank You that You meet us in that space with Your peace and Your comfort and Your care. Forgive us for allowing fear and anxiousness to reign in silence, rather than calling on You out loud, and allowing You into the darkness. Teach us to trust You more, so that we will remember that where Your light shines, darkness cannot be found. Lead us to love others in such a way, that they too, may come to know the peace and presence that are found forever in You. Be glorified O God, as we cast all of our anxiety on You, and move forward boldly in all that You have called us to become. Amen.

From 0-5 to 5-0, Penn State Football Has Done a Complete 180
Story posted October 4, 2021 in Sports, CommRadio by Jack McCune
Saturday, Oct. 24, 2020 was finally the day for the return of Penn State football after the Big Ten Conference delayed its season due to COVID-19.
The Nittany Lions' schedule was announced about a month prior, and a trip to Memorial Field to play Indiana was first on the list.
Penn State was the No. 8 team in the nation and 22-1 all-time against the Hoosiers before the game, and many fans and experts brushed over the Week 1 matchup for the next game against Ohio State.
That all changed when Indiana quarterback Michael Penix Jr. extended his right arm with the football towards the pylon in overtime for what would become the controversial call heard around the world.
The successful two-point conversion gave the Hoosiers the 36-35 upset win, and the hype for the date with the Buckeyes was all but lost.
The Nittany Lions entered a tailspin after the shocking defeat.
Both Ohio State and Maryland entered a nearly empty Beaver Stadium and beat Penn State by double digits, and Iowa did the same after the blue and white lost at Nebraska the week prior.
Reality was setting in for head coach James Franklin — Penn State was 0-5 for the first time ever. The two-time champion with the eighth-most wins in the history of college football was nearly at rock bottom.
Four straight wins to end the 2020 campaign would ease some of the pain, but the 4-5 record would mark the first losing season since 2004, and after playing in a New Year's Six game the year prior, the program opted out of its bowl eligibility.
Fast forward to Week 5 of the 2021 season — the Nittany Lions were coming off three straight non-conference victories at home after beating a ranked Wisconsin on the road. Fans were back for the fourth-straight game at Beaver Stadium.
On Saturday, less than a year after the Indiana loss, Penix and company were in Happy Valley for the Stripe Out game under the lights, and No. 4 Penn State took the 24-0 win. The Nittany Lions were 5-0.
In the span of one offseason, the conversation turned from if Sean Clifford was the answer to whether the quarterback is a Heisman candidate. Franklin's speculation around leaving for USC lingers, but this time, no one wants to see him go. Hopes for a win have turned into hopes for a birth in the College Football Playoff.
The season isn't even halfway over, though, and the blue and white's toughest test yet is coming up next week in a road matchup with No. 3 Iowa.
Penn State hasn't lost in Kinnick Stadium since 2010, and last year's loss broke a five-game win streak against the Hawkeyes.
However, with the 5-0 start to the 2021 season, and a revenge win under their belt, Franklin, Clifford and the rest of the team can completely forget about last year.

Paul Lewis brings stellar artistry to Celebrity Series recital
Paul Lewis performed a recital Sunday afternoon at Jordan Hall. Photo: Robert Torres
Paul Lewis's appearances in Boston have been rare, but each has been memorable.
Four years ago, the British pianist made his long-awaited local debut as part of the Celebrity Series. His recital featured the late piano sonatas of Schubert, works with which he has made a mark in international circles. In March of 2015 Lewis paired up with violinist Lisa Batiashvili for noteworthy performances of works by Sibelius, Schubert, and Beethoven.
Lewis's return to the Celebrity Series Sunday afternoon for a solo recital at Jordan Hall stands out as one of the highlights of the current season. Playing with stellar technique and searching musicality, Lewis delivered memorable performances of works by Bach, Beethoven, Chopin, and Weber.
The piano sonatas of Carl Maria von Weber were once performed regularly and recorded in abundance. But in the past half-century the works have fallen into neglect. It's hard to understand why, for they are rich in drama and mark the beginnings of keyboard romanticism.
The Piano Sonata No. 2 in A-flat major, which Lewis performed Sunday, abounds with freely expressive melodies and wide sweeps of emotion. The waltzing theme of the first movement, which looks ahead to Chopin, turns vigorously in place. The furious figures of the Menuetto capriccioso swirled in a whirlwind of filigree. The second movement is poetic, and the finale features spinning melodies that resemble Schumann's lyrical style.
The work had a stellar advocate in Lewis. Playing with remarkable precision and a tone that was plush and rounded even in forte passages, the pianist found the operatic drama laden within the piece. Phrases in the upper register sounded with clarity. In other places, dark passages yielded to lines of sunny lyricism. Lewis conjured the powerful chords and running figures of the first movement with intensity, drawing early applause.
The other big work heard Sunday, Beethoven's Sonata No. 4 in E-flat major, was just as noteworthy for its musical spectacle.
Many pianists render the power in Beethoven's sonatas through crash-and-bang interpretations. But Lewis is capable of building the music to satisfying climaxes while retaining a clear, full tone. The pianist also has the skill to spin technical passages into singing arcs. That was the case in the first movement, where the triplet figures flowed gracefully over solid left-hand chords. The development section, with its diversions into minor keys, had deep mystery.
The Minuet began softly, and Lewis added volume and energy as he moved through the phrase. In the second movement, Lewis spun lines of soft intensity. The Rondo was a true culmination of the sonata, with Lewis shading the contrasting themes with tasteful dynamics.
Even the opener, Bach's Partita No. 1, showed Lewis as a musician of utmost sensitivity. His Bach has the nimble grace one would find in Glenn Gould's performances. Yet Lewis found the song-like quality in the work's trickling lines. The streams and eddies of the Prelude flowed effortlessly, and the dancing phrases of the Allemande and Courante had a warm glow, with Lewis' dynamic touch providing direction and momentum. The two Minuet movements unfolded elegantly into the churning Gigue. Lewis' performance was strongest in the Sarabande, which moved freely, the lines glowing at a distance.
Rounding out the program were three waltzes by Chopin. The works, pieced together with little pause, resulted in an extended musical conversation. In the Waltz in A minor, Op. 34, No. 2, the rhythms turned about in a stately tempo before swelling to a glide. The Waltz in F minor, Op. 70, No. 2 took on greater energy, with Lewis shaping in the principal line with shimmering flourishes. The Waltz in D-flat major, Op. 64, No. 1, nicknamed the "Minute Waltz," was the cresting point, its phrases moving in rapid, twisting motion.
The audience rewarded Lewis and his thoughtful program with generous applause. He returned the gesture by offering a singing and colorful encore of Schubert's Allegretto in C minor, D. 915.
The next classical music event sponsored by the Celebrity Series will feature violinist Hilary Hahn and pianist Robert Levin in music by Bach, Abril, Mozart, Türk, and Schubert 8 p.m. Saturday at Jordan Hall. celebrityseries.org; 617- 482-6661.

Q: Replace string in JPG image I have some images that I import from an android phone and when trying to open on PC, I couldn't open it properly. I could solve the problem by opening the image by notepad++ amd modify part ICC_PROFILE to ICC_PROFILX
I tried this python snippet but the image destroyed
with open("Sample.jpg") as r:
  text = r.read().replace("ICC_PROFILE", "ICC_PROFILX")
with open("Sample.jpg", "w") as w:
  w.write(text)

Any idea how to fix that?

A: JPEG is a binary format; you need to read ("rb") and write ("wb") as binary to avoid corruption, and then pass bytes (b"...") in both the arguments to the .replace method.
with open("Sample.jpg", "rb") as r:
  text = r.read().replace(b"ICC_PROFILE", b"ICC_PROFILX")
with open("Sample.jpg", "wb") as w:
  w.write(text)

If the replacement is not exactly the same length as the original, you will corrupt the file for other reasons. In fact, a much better solution is to use a dedicated image library which understands the JPEG format, but for really simple things, you can occasionally get away without one.
When reading and writing text, Python transparently normalizes line endings, so you can't know if the input file contained \n or \r\n. There are also other corner cases where the internal Unicode representation may not always round-trip back to exactly the original sequence of bytes. If what you are reading isn't actually text, always use binary mode.

At the 2007 Vancouver Jazz Festival, Vijay Iyer gave an afternoon workshop on his compositional approach and took a break before his evening concert to listen to some music and share his comments.
"It Don't Mean A Thing If It Ain't Got That Swing" (from Plays Duke Ellington, Riverside). Monk, piano; Oscar Pettiford, bass; Kenny Clarke, drums. Recorded in 1955, reissued 2007.
Do Jazz Critics Need To Know How To Play Jazz?
Since capturing the 2004 Thelonious Monk Jazz Vocal Competition, Gretchen Parlato has become a favorite of critics, fans and fellow musicians. She sings standards, but not from the dog-eared pages of the American Popular Songbook. With a musician's sensibility, she carves out idiosyncratic arrangements of jazz instrumentals, Brazilian sambas, and 1980's pop and r&b gems. She's also starting to write more and her song stories are as distinctive as her phrasing. It seems everyone wants to work with Parlato these days, and she's already appeared on more than 50 recordings, including projects with Lionel Loueke, Kenny Barron, Terence Blanchard, Becca Stevens and Esperanza Spalding. Parlato's latest recording as a leader is The Lost and Found (Obliqsound).
For this 2004 JazzTimes B&A, Tuck (Andress) and Patti (Cathcart) sat close to one another on the edge of the bed in their hotel room; Tuck cross-legged, Patti dangling her legs and occasionally touching the floor with her feet in rhythm to the music. In between selections, Patti told stories about nervously meeting Carmen McRae ("my heart)" for the first time, and how Mahalia Jackson "answered all my questions" with her music. We started with a classic to break the ice.
Pianist, composer Uri Caine talks about process, various projects and his formative years in Philadelphia during a pre-concert interview at the Atlas Theater, May 22, 2010.
When I met Jean "Toots" Thielemans in early 2007 to record this piece for JazzTimes, he was not prepared to do any serious listening (he thought it would be an interview about his latest cd). He vacillated for a few minutes, finally agreed, and eventually warmed up to the idea and told some great stories. To prompt him, I wanted to get his reaction to various guitarists, a few harmonica players (including Stevie Wonder), and some Brazilian tracks.

According to believers, God is an all-powerful being who has the divine, magical power to do anything. How do we know that this belief is a fairy tale? One way to know is to try to invoke God's magical power. For example, as described in Proof #1, the Bible tells us in many places that God answers prayers. However, whenever we try to pray, we notice that nothing happens (See Proof #1 and Proof #2). That tells us that God is completely imaginary. The magical powers ascribed to him are a fairy tale.
Another way to know is to read the stories of magical events in the Bible. There is the magical flood, yet we know with certainty that the flood never happened. There are the magical miracles of Jesus, but (predictably) none of these miracles left behind any tangible evidence (see Proof #14). There is the magical resurrection, yet there is zero evidence that it ever occured and no reason to believe it (See Proof #15).


Grandparents are the people who become your best friends first and then your family. It doesn't matter what age you are because you are always going to want to go to your grandparent's house and spent time with them. They are the one's who never forget your birthday and always congratulate you on your every milestone. Thank you to our grandparents for making our life a lot more enjoyable.
Here are 10 reasons why grandparents are and will always remain our best friends.
Every time you annoyed your mother or left vegetables on your plate, your grandparents were always there to protect you from an extra slap or an unnecessary scolding. They defended you against your parents and won the battle each time.
Unlike your parents who always told you not to eat too many sweets because you would get cavities. Your grandparents gifted you a box of chocolates every time they saw you. They always know how to pamper children and you got an opportunity to get back at your parents.
Your grandparents understand your emotions and always tell you ways you can better yourself. "Don't go to bed late" or "Focus on your studies now and enjoy for the rest of your life" are some of the ways they teach you to become a better human being.
Grandparents say the silliest of jokes and can diffuse any serious situation at home. From their stories about your parent's embarrassing childhood to their own hilarious stories, there is nothing they can't do to make you giggle.
My grandfather is a retired police officer and his stories never stop fascinating us. He tells us about the time they had to patrol the district on horses or the time he saw Indira Gandhi in her most vulnerable state. After all, their "Zamaana" was a lot better than ours.
One of my best memories is going to my grandparent's big old house and exploring all the small rooms and corners. This became mine and my sister's favourite past time and I still remember every part of the house clearly.
I and my sister would write letters to our grandparents when we were younger but since a few years ago, we stopped writing to them. Our grandfather would constantly remind us to send him a letter. Finally, I wrote him a letter and he framed it.
Without any professional training but a lifetime of practice, our grandmothers make the best food. The kind of food our mother's only wish they could make. My grandmother is 84 years old and even today she cooks for us when we visit her.
Unlike your parents, your grandparents can never say 'no' to you and they give you every weird or expensive thing you ask for. They anger your parents by doing this but win an ocean of love from their grandchildren.
Even though they don't understand technology, they still send you an occasional "Good morning" or a picture of a god. After all, they know you are on your phone 24 into 7 so, they would like to be a part of it too.
From listening to all your childish stories to taking care of you in sickness, your grandparents have always been there for you. It's time for us to step up our game and give back to the people who have spent half their lives looking after us.

The Fortune Teller Book Blast: Giveaway for a Tarot Deck and Book Set
The Fortune Teller by Gwendolyn Womack
Paperback Publication Date: June 6, 2017
Paperback; 368 Pages
Genre: Fiction/Historical/Mystery
FROM THE AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR OF THE MEMORY PAINTER COMES A SWEEPING AND SUSPENSEFUL TALE OF ROMANCE, FATE, AND FORTUNE.
Semele Cavnow appraises antiquities for an exclusive Manhattan auction house, deciphering ancient texts—and when she discovers a manuscript written in the time of Cleopatra, she knows it will be the find of her career. Its author tells the story of a priceless tarot deck, now lost to history, but as Semele delves further, she realizes the manuscript is more than it seems. Both a memoir and a prophecy, it appears to be the work of a powerful seer, describing devastating wars and natural disasters in detail thousands of years before they occurred.
The more she reads, the more the manuscript begins to affect Semele's life. But what happened to the tarot deck? As the mystery of her connection to its story deepens, Semele can't shake the feeling that she's being followed. Only one person can help her make sense of it all: her client, Theo Bossard. Yet Theo is arrogant and elusive, concealing secrets of his own, and there's more to Semele's desire to speak with him than she would like to admit. Can Semele even trust him?
The auction date is swiftly approaching, and someone wants to interfere—someone who knows the cards exist, and that the Bossard manuscript is tied to her. Semele realizes it's up to her to stop them: The manuscript holds the key to a two-thousand-year-old secret, a secret someone will do anything to possess.

Praise for The Fortune Teller
"Beginning as a clever mystery based on an ancient manuscript and evolving into a family epic spanning centuries, an international thriller, and a destined romance, The Fortune Teller has something for everyone. Offer it to fans of A.S. Byatt's Possession and Lauren Willig's Pink Carnation series."―Booklist
"Womack alternates back and forth between a whirlwind history that spans thousands of years and the suspense of Semele's search...Entertaining."—Kirkus Reviews
"The Fortune Teller is a gripping, twisting tale that spans thousands of years, thousands of miles, and perhaps even crosses over to the 'other side.' A fascinating read that is that unlikely combination of unputdownable and thought-provoking."—B.A. Shapiro, bestselling author of The Art Forger and The Muralist
"There aren't enough words to adequately describe how much I love The Fortune Teller. It is a gripping and masterfully woven combination of history, mystery, fate, adventure, and family ties: a true page-turner that enthralls from the first sentence with unique characters, fascinating settings, and intriguing artifacts. Womack brilliantly illuminates how there is more at play in the world than logic can explain."—Kelli Estes, USA Today bestselling author of The Girl Who Wrote in Silk
"The Fortune Teller takes you on an international thrill ride across centuries—with fascinating research and memorable characters—proving once again that Gwendolyn Womack is a magician, keeping readers turning pages with wonder and awe."—M.J. Rose, New York Times bestselling author
"What a mesmerizing journey. The suspense increases steadily throughout the novel, as Semele realizes her identity is caught up in the mysterious manuscript and that the truth of her own abilities is a secret people will kill for. Readers who enjoy the novels of Katherine Neville, Kate Mosse and Diana Gabaldon will savor this treat."—Nancy Bilyeau, author of The Crown
