The grand opening of the first cat café in the country drew dozens of cat lovers and spectators to Downtown Oakland on Saturday—or rather, Caturday. Cat Town Café, founded by Ann Dunn and Adam Myatt, better known as the "Cat Man of West Oakland," is a café and adoption center meant to speed up the adoption process for cats in Oakland shelters.
Over at the café, cat-themed art adorns the walls, including watercolor paintings of cats by artist Megan Lynn Kott, with quirky message like, "So. You're telling me I'm adopted?" or "No dogs, no masters" or "I own the Internet" — a joke referring to the massive popularity of online cat videos. There's also a large painting of Godzilla-sized cats climbing historical downtown buildings: one cat walking on the skyway between the federal towers and another hugging City Hall. There are no tables or chairs in the café side, but customers can buy coffee, bagels and cat-shaped cookies.
A corridor with double doors divides the two rooms to meet health and safety codes and to control influx of people visiting the Cat Zone, where the felines roam freely and where folks who are looking to adopt or simply pet the furry friends can sit and sip on their coffee—in closed paper cups, of course. Visitors who want to spend time with the cats in the Cat Zone can make a reservation online and pay a $10 donation to secure a one-hour spot Wednesdays through Sundays. If there are empty spots, walk-ins are welcome to spend time with the cats for free.
Cat lovers from different parts of the Bay Area came prepared to celebrate the opening wearing cat paraphernalia and accessories: cat earrings, cat ears, cat back-packs, cat print shoes, hats and skirts, catchy cat t-shirts with messages like "Cats are people too." Some parents dressed their children in homemade furry cat costumes too. Passersby smiled as they peeked through the glass windows to catch a glimpse of the cats.
During the opening, some cats took naps on laps, others rubbed their bodies against the legs of visitors, many played with cat toys, and Tiny threw up—but the team of caring Cat Town volunteers were quick to make sure Tiny was just fine and cleaned up after his accident.
Both founders of the café have a history of caring for Oakland's cats in need. Dunn is the founder and president of Cat Town, a non-profit organization that works with Oakland Animal Services to place cats in foster or permanent homes, and she also helps run outreach campaigns.
Myatt is cat photographer and Cat Town volunteer who is known as the "Cat Man" for his photographs of street cats in West Oakland. He publishes pictures on his website Hoodcats (hwww.oaklandhoodcats.com) and also produces a Hoodcats calendar. Myatt's photographs hang on the café section, like the one of a cat peacefully sitting on top of a parked car in Oakland.
Cat cafes have been particularly popular in Japan. In the US, only temporary cat Cafes have popped up in cities like New York and Los Angeles. But Cat Town Café is here to stay in Oakland.
The opening drew dozens of people, and adoptions began to take off. "We just know more cats are going to be adopted," Dunn said.

Sounds probably never before heard in Dallas filled Southern Methodist University's Caruth Auditorium on Monday night.
The virtuoso perpetrators were Roomful of Teeth, an avant-garde vocal ensemble increasingly wowing audiences and critics around the country. The concert was presented by the Dallas Chamber Music Society.
"Roomful of Teeth" performed at Caruth Auditorium in Dallas on Monday.
Founded in 2009, Roomful of Teeth has studied and incorporated vocal effects from quite a variety of traditions outside Western classical — even pop — styles. Discounting, say, birds, the human voice is the original musical instrument, and Monday's concert spun veritable kaleidoscopes of sonic effects. Although words were sometimes sung or whispered, this was mainly instrumental music for voices.
Everything was amplified, with a separate microphone on each of the eight singers: two sopranos, two altos, two baritones, a bass-baritone and a bass. The amplification lent extra visceral oomph to Cameron Beauchamp's deep bass notes.
The largest of the selections, the four-movement Partita for 8 voices by Caroline Shaw (b. 1982), won the 2013 Pulitzer Prize for music. Although its movements are named for dance-based movements of baroque instrumental suites, the effects are baroque in the more basic sense of extravagance.
In "Allemande" words and numbers were jumbled amid hummings, imitation electronic sounds, whistlings and other wind effects. Soprano descants sometimes floated above close harmonies; elsewhere textures were busily contrapuntal. "Sarabande" explored down-and-up glissandos and wild, edgy sounds.
"Courante" was energized by rhythmic gasps. "Passacaglia" included nasal rasps and elaborate sonic pileups suggesting an old-fashioned short-wave radio.
High Done No Why To by William Brittelle was jazzy in both quick and slow senses. with some harmonies that would fit right into a King's Singers concert. Render, by Brad Wells, artistic director of the group, spread watery washes of vocalism, with some complex harmonies over pulsing men's voices. Cesca's View, by Rinde Eckert, for women's voices, made much of yodeling effects.
Eric Dudley's Suonare/To Sound luxuriated in echoing overlappings. In dancing rhythms, Quizassa, by Merrill Garbus, nasalized the women's voices then assigned the rhythmic momentum to the men, humming and gasping.
None of this would be possible without wildly flexible, but flawlessly tuned, voices, and Roomful of Teeth delivered the goods with genuine virtuosity. This was quite a show.
The Dallas concert followed two performances earlier this season at the University North Texas in Denton. Two of the singers, by the way, have area connections. Austin-based Beauchamp and bass-baritone Thann Scoggin are both UNT alums, and during student years both sang with various area choral ensembles.

Barking and Dagenham Post > News > Local Council
Majority of Barking and Dagenham's striking GMB members return to work
Published: 7:00 PM June 1, 2015

The end of the bin strike is "not a victory for the council", but a victory for "common sense" according to Barking and Dagenham's cabinet member for finance.
Cllr Dominic Twomey - Credit: Archant
The industrial walk-outs, which started back in March, were effectively brought to an end today, with 76 of the 106 GMB members agreeing terms to return to work.
Initially called by the GMB, Unite and Unison unions, workers claimed council changes to working conditions would leave drivers £1,000 a year worse off and cut the time allowed for safety checks on wagons.
Although the latter two unions agreed terms including a one-off £500 payment for each worker at the end of April, GMB members continued strike action which had been due to end at the end of this week.
While 30 drivers are yet to return, Cllr Dominic Twomey insists the borough's waste and refuse services are "fully operational" once more, though it will take two weeks to catch up with the back-log.
"It's not a victory for the council," he said. "It's not about being a victory.
"We offered a fair deal and we're glad that drivers have taken it upon themselves to sign up to that deal.
"Common sense has won the day."
Although other council staff had been recruited to deliver the borough's green garden waste collection service during the disruption, Cllr Twomey also revealed a further six drivers had been hired on short-term contracts last week.
While the newly-returned GMB drivers have accepted the same terms as agreed by Unison and Unite workers five weeks ago, the borough's finance member believes staff were brought around by the recent lack of earnings.
"I am sure they realised it's a fair deal," he added. "Unfortunately some of the drivers have lost quite a lot of income.
"While the GBM members have been striking it's actually cost them more than they could have gained."

Using a small roller or brush, fill in the shapes with the paint colours of your choice.


It's not the first time the artist has examined a tough topic: now based in Vienna but originally from Graz, Beer has previously addressed loneliness in an era of electronic connectivity; fear of financial ruin; and the need for each individual to harness their own destiny.
With 'Remember To Forget', the video uses selective colouring on an otherwise black and white background to symbolise the way the human mind reflects on the past: some memories are strong in our recollection, remaining bold and vivid as if they'd only happened yesterday; while others fade to grey. It's a touching, if slightly chilling metaphor, especially for those memories we don't want to retain but somehow can't shake.
We can feel Beer's passion in the song, and can see it in the clip, with his face betraying the fact he has many such memories. It's introspective and deeply personal, and we are left with a somewhat disarming feeling of intruding on a private experience.

Q: Entity Code First Custom Data Type 2 Questions regarding custom data-types in Entity Framework and performing things automatically...

*

*I have a class that is able to provide a string representation of itself and construct itself from a string.  Is there anyway to include this class as a property of a E-CF class and have it create a string underneath?  e.g:
public class MySpecialClass
{
    public MySpecialClass(string _data)
    {
    } // eo ctor

    public string ToString()
    {
    } // eo ToString
} // eo MySpecialClass

public class EntityObject
{
    public MySpecialClass Special {get; set; }
} // eo class EntityObject

That would be really useful!

*I have a whole bunch of classes that have things such as CreatedBy, ModifiedBy, ModifiedDate etceteras.  Is there an easy way to automatically set these when an object is first created, or whenever it is modified at a later point?  Ideally I'd like an event I could hook in to to implement this kind of behavior, as some of my objects actually require a write to a "history" table if certain fields change.  Actually, is there any way to do that too?  To know if a certain field was modified during an update?

A: In your entity you must define property as string. EF is not able to work with custom classes. Each generated entity class is defined as partial so you can define additional property in partial class which will work with instance of your type:
// EF generated part
public partial class EntityObject
{
  protected string SpecialString { get; set; }
}

// Your part
public partial class EntityObject
{
  public MySpecialClass Special
  {
    get
    {
      return MySpecialClass.Deserialize(SpecialString);
    }
    set
    {
      SpecialString = MySpecialClass.Serialize(value);
    }
  }
}

You will not be able to use Special property in Linq-To-Entities queries.

Edit:
I didn't notice that you are using
  code-first. In such case you don't use
  partial classes for entities and you
  can use same approach in single entity
  where MySpecialClass will be marked with
  NotMappedAttribute.

For your second question - it is usually responsibility of data access layer (currently very popular repository pattern). The only build-in events available in EF are

*

*ObjectCotnext.ObjectMaterialized - fired when data are loaded from DB and instance of object is created

*ObjectContext.SavingChanges - fired before EF executes changes in DB

You can add some custom events if you override SaveChanges method.

Frequently Asked Questions - Tax 911 NOW!
I filed my tax returns but didn't have the money to pay. What should I do?
First of all, you have done the right thing by filing the taxes. Because if you do not file, you may have to face late filing penalties, which sometimes can add up to be more than your tax owing considering the compounded daily interests. For the tax owing, if you do not pay the balance then CRA may take legal action shortly that includes garnishing your income, bank freeze, put a lien on your home, direct a sheriff to sell your assets, etc. By reviewing your situation, we can determine your best course of action. If you can not afford to pay the full balance right away demanded by CRA, we can help to negotiate an affordable monthly payment plan. For many other with no ability to pay, we can help to apply for tax relief.
What type of documents should I bring for the consultation?
To help us better analyze your tax situation, please bring us CRA's letters such as demand to file, notice of assessment, collection notice, statement of account, etc. and any other documents that provide supporting information. We will provide you with a thorough analysis and recommendation based on your documents.

What is the Taxpayer Relief?
What Legal Actions does CRA take to Collect Tax Owing?
If you owe taxes and can not afford to pay up. CRA may take legal actions to collect the debts owing. Legal action include income garnishment, such as wage garnishment, bank levy, or account receivable if you have business; CRA may also freeze your bank to force you to pay; House lien is also common for collection purpose, sometimes, CRA may send a sheriff to sell your assets to pay the debts. Once the legal actions started, CRA will not stop till the balance is paid or other satisfying arrangements are made, such as negotiating a payment plan.
Can I go to jail or prison for my tax filings?
If you view all the court conviction records, you may find that a lot of the cases are simply due to failure to file taxes, including personal income taxes, business income taxes, etc. Failure to file taxes is illegal, and thus subject to criminal and civil penalties, which means that you can indeed go to jail or pay large penalties which may destroy you financially.

Just browsing the code for the particles that get emitter when project() is called, I found that ActorProject only use particles.type from the particles parameter given to project(). That seems fine, except that Map:particleEmitter() has 3 relevant parameters: radius, def, and args. While it is obvious that radius should be 1 (as the method gets called for every tile), there are no reason why args is set to nil instead of particles.args.
One application of being able to set args from the project() function would be to change the color of the emitted particles depending on the element of the spell. Of course, this can be done by calling particleEmitter() directly, but using the particles of project() is simpler.

By Excluding Palestinian Voices From Jerusalem Debate, Cable News Avoided Addressing Israeli Rights Abuses
If Palestinians were given a larger platform, "people would have to confront the reality of supporting an apartheid regime," said Ahmad Abuznaid.
Dina Sayedahmed Zaid Jilani
Dina Sayedahmed, Zaid Jilani
December 14 2017, 2:12 p.m.
Palestinian voices were largely absent from American cable news' coverage of President Donald Trump's decision last week to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. By turning to their stable of regular political commentators to weigh in on the unprecedented move, the three major news networks – CNN, MSNBC, and Fox News – excluded those most impacted by the decision and avoided difficult questions about Israeli rights abuses, Palestinian human rights lawyers and activists say.
Had more Palestinians been asked to weigh in, they would have "highlighted the broader context that this is a fulfillment of decades-long policy of removing [Palestinians]," said human rights lawyer Noura Erakat. Instead, the network coverage had the cumulative effect of framing the move as a bad policy decision, when in reality it is an extension of longstanding U.S. policy, added Erakat, who was one of a handful of Palestinians to appear on MSNBC last week.
"Nobody wants to admit that we are witnessing the inevitable consolidation of Israel's settler colonialism and apartheid regime," she added.
CNN Anderson Cooper 360 on Dec. 6, 2017.

The networks began to heavily report on the issue about a week before Trump's December 6 announcement that the United States would recognize Jerusalem – which is revered by Christians, Jews, and Muslims alike – as Israel's capital and move the U.S. Embassy from Tel Aviv. Between December 1 and December 6, Fox News did not interview a single Palestinian about the consequences of the decision, and CNN interviewed just four. MSNBC outperformed its competition in terms of featuring Arab-American guests, with Arab-American reporter Ayman Mohyeldin on the ground in East Jerusalem and the Palestinian territories, and Erakat and other guests of Arab descent being invited to speak.
Israel captured East Jerusalem in 1967 and later annexed it, an action that has not been recognized internationally. In fact, Israel has long recognized Jerusalem as its capital, despite international law that states that an occupying power has no sovereignty in the territory it occupies. While the Palestinian Authority issues ID cards for residents of the West Bank and Gaza, Israel maintains the right to issue — and revoke — ID cards for Jerusalem residents. Palestinians living in Jerusalem are also subject to Israeli law and face various forms of discrimination. In that sense, Trump's decision makes no substantial changes on the ground and essentially serves as an extension of the Oslo Accords and the United States's policies toward Israel and occupied Palestine, critics say.
"The occupation and consistent colonization and erasure of Palestinian existence on the ground is inherently violent," said Ahmad Abuznaid, Jerusalem native and director of the Dearborn-based National Network for Arab American Communities. "If there was more representation of Palestinians in mainstream media, people would have to confront the reality of supporting an apartheid regime."
Mainstream outlets have normalized the Israeli occupation, Erakat argued, and, as a result, condemnations of Israel's actions are rare. "No matter what [Israel] does, it becomes stuffed into a sovereignty framework," she said.
Indeed, last week's network coverage of Jerusalem focused on an end to the Middle East peace process, and conversations rarely touched on Israel's building of illegal settlements throughout Jerusalem. Since 1967, Israel established more than 200 settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, according to B'Tselem, the Israeli Information Center for Human Rights in the Occupied Territories. A 2016 comptroller report found that about 15 percent of building permits in East Jerusalem were issued to Palestinians. Rather than focusing on occupation as a form of violence, the networks instead anticipated reactive violence from the Palestinians, something that did not materialize.
"By focusing strictly on the Arab and Palestinian response, suggesting that the violence will be caused by the Arabs and Palestinians, [mainstream outlets are] pathologizing the Palestinian response to Israeli violence and erasing the Israeli settler violence," said Lamis Deek, a Palestinian-American human rights attorney.
Deek said Israel's violence and the United States's support for it is the issue of primary concern in the region. However, unlike Palestine, Deek said, Israel enjoys media exceptionalism that serves to demonize Palestinians and justify Israel's continued colonization of Palestinian territories. Hamas's transgressions and individual incidents of Palestinian violence, for example, were disproportionately covered in comparison to Israeli aggression during the 2014 Gaza war.
In six days of coverage, CNN interviewed four Palestinians: Husam Zomlot, the Palestinian Liberation Organization's envoy to the U.S.; PLO negotiator Saeb Erekat; a Jerusalem resident interviewed by correspondent Ian Miller; and Erakat, the U.S.-based human rights lawyer. But that's not for a lack of coverage of the issue. In other segments, former Israel lobby activist Wolf Blitzer interviewed U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Nikki Haley and New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman. CNN's Jake Tapper played a 30-second clip of Erakat speaking about the issue and gave State Department spokesperson Jen Psaki, the Federalist's Mary Katharine Ham, and former U.S. Ambassador to Israel Dan Shapiro the chance to respond.
At one point, CNN's Erin Burnett seemed almost self-aware about the lack of Palestinian voices on the network. In an interview with Israeli Ambassador to the U.S. Ron Dermer, he claimed that recognizing Jerusalem as Israel's capital "lays a foundation of peace because it is based on truth and fact."
She replied, "Obviously not the view of Palestinians today, but we'll see what happens."

— Remi Kanazi (@Remroum) December 6, 2017
Fox News did not interview a single Palestinian for its segments, but the network did play a pre-recorded clip of Palestinian negotiator Hanan Ashrawi. When former Arkansas Republican Gov. Mike Huckabee weighed in on Fox, he said he hopes the next time he visits Jerusalem there will be an American embassy there.
MSNBC's Mohyeldin has extensive experience in the region and traveled to Jerusalem to cover the implications of Trump's decision there, including in an interview with former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak. Throughout the week, MSNBC hosts interviewed people like Jim Zogby, head of the Washington-based Arab American Institute; Rula Jebreal, a Palestinian journalist; and Erakat.
Like the other networks, much of MSNBC's coverage featured pundits who are regular contributors to the network. That so few of them are of Arab or Palestinian descent speaks to a general lack of diversity in the mainstream media.
Had Palestinians been included in the national conversation about Jerusalem, the tenor would have been quite different, Abuznaid said. For example, the networks emphasized the imperiled feature of the Middle East peace process, but many Palestinians do not believe in the existence of the process, he said, due to Israeli transgressions and U.S. support for them. Last year alone, the United States signed its largest-ever military aid package, agreeing to give Israel $38 billion over the next decade. The United States has also done little more than verbally condemn Israel for its consistent and repeated violations of international law, such as its settlement expansions, which, alongside the status of Jerusalem, is a core issue at the heart of the peace process.
"Jerusalem is a microcosm of what the Palestinian-Israeli conflict has developed out of and now we're at the heart of the discussion," Abuznaid said. "The two-state solution has been effectively eliminated publicly. … We can now deal with the reality that the U.S. is not a neutral broker and the fact that the two-state solution is dead."
Correction: Dec. 15, 2017, 1:58 p.m.
This article previously stated that CNN interviewed three Palestinians between December 1 and December 6. The network, in fact, interviewed a fourth: Husam Zomlot.

Failure to Blog - But Successful in Life!
So, I leave you with a lot of photos of me and my family in thermal pools, and that's it. This thing hasn't been updated since July 4, and it's nearly September.
Some of you might be questioning my dedication to this blog...so do I.
However, in my defense, I would like to offer a little recap on what I've been doing since the 4th of July. It's been a pretty wild ride!
July 7: Cirque de Soleil. Now I know what the frenzy is all about!
July 17-19: Camp Vermilion 50th Anniversary and Family Visit: I got to see my 3-month old (at the time) niece and my 81 year old grandmother, all in the same weekend! Also, it was incredible to get to reconnect with many of my old Camp Vermilion friends/counselors/fellow staff.
July 20-26: The ELCA National Youth Gathering: For the first time, LC/NA was invited to have a booth in the Interaction Center of the Gathering. My intern, Dylan, and I were there all week, handing out temporary tattoos of the RIC logo. We talked to kids about LC/NA and the Reconciling in Christ program is. The kids (and chaperons) were very excited and thankful that we were there. We signed up 600 Reconciling Lutherans! It was an awesome experience. We need more space next year!
July 26-30: Convention of the Lutheran Youth Organization: I presented a workshop and was a resource person for conversations about the ELCA's proposed Social Statement on Human Sexuality. I got to connect with many of the young leaders of the church, many of whom are excited about the direction that the ELCA is heading. I feel confident with them at the helm!
August 3-7: The Naming Project Summer Camp: This was the biggest camp year yet, with 13 campers! The group was very close and got along incredibly well. There was little drama to deal with. It was another good year with TNP!
August 24-26: Welcoming Program Leaders Round-table Retreat: Spending time with my counterparts in all the other denominations. Getting to gloat about the Lutherans' good work from the week before.
August 28: MN State Fair: Butter sculpture and crop art. Oh, and lots of food!
So, that pretty much brings me up to the present. I'm trying to rest and recuperate before the business of the fall begins. I've been too busy to update this, but I feel that this summer was not a failure at all. It was a SUCCESS!
Blessings to you as you wind down your summers!

Two foreign tourists were hit by waves while visiting Angel's Billabong, Nusa Penida on Sunday morning. Qui Wei, 43, a Chinese tourist, drowned, while the other English tourist, Emily Seth, 34 was saved.
They were both in a group of six people on a day tour of Nusa Penida, stopping at Angel's Billabong first. According to Emily, who posted her story of the event on Facebook, Qui Wei, his wife and Emily lowered themselves down to the pool area "aiming to swim in the pool, take photos and admire the view," she wrote. Apparently the sea was calm at this point. Next, in her words, a 'tidal wave' hit the pool, smashing her against the rocky wall and sending her gasping underwater. By the time the next wave hit she had found a rock to hold onto and was lifted to safety. The Chinese man's wife managed to scurry up the steps, but unfortunately, Qui Wei couldn't swim and was knocked unconscious by the first wave and the second wave took him out to see where he drowned.
The Head of Nusa Penida Polsek, Commissioner I Ketut Suastika, said several witnesses claimed that the sea was calm earlier, then when the group went down to the pool, big waves hit the area and the victim was swept away. "The height of the waves grew to three meters at that time, witnesses said," Commissioner Suastika told nusabali.com on Sunday.
He also said that the victim was floating for 10 minutes before he was lifted from the water by a local boat. "The body was then brought to Nusa Penida Pratama Hospital. The doctor confirmed that he was already dead on arrival and there were several wounds on his body," he added. The body was taken to Sanglah Hospital, Bali on Sunday afternoon.
Emily Seth warned in her post on Facebook about the dangers of the area.
She wrote, "Whilst a beautiful natural landmark, this area is incredibly dangerous. After this all happened I looked into its safety and multiple people have suffered similar fates, despite all the travel websites and Instagram pictures showing the public how beautiful and safe it looks from the outside in. If you know anyone visiting the island please warn them of the dangers of this area! I'm incredibly grateful for all the help I've received following the accident and amazed by the generosity of total strangers in a time of horror and distress. I'm now on my way back to England following what happened but my thoughts will forever lie with the woman who lost her husband that morning."
While Emily claimed the wave was a tidal wave connected to the Lombok earthquake that morning, there were no tsunami warnings that morning and the swell picked up quickly that morning due to distant storms in the southern Indian Ocean and conditions have stayed rough since. Fast boats are still prohibited from making the crossing till this morning.

Contributing Editor Paul Schnackenburg recently had a long interview with Microsoft's top virtualization guy, Ben Armstrong. Some of that interview was included in the December print issue of the magazine, but much of it couldn't be included, due to the space limitations of print. But there are no such limitations online, so I've decided to divide up the interview into more bite-sized chunks here, so you can get the full flavor of what Armstrong says about virtualization, VMware, containers, Azure and more. Future editions will be coming out all this week. Note that I've done some very minor editing, for clarity. -- Keith Ward, editor in chief.
Paul Schnackenburg: What are the most important new features coming in Hyper-V in Windows Server 2016?
Ben Armstrong: That's always the worst question because I love all the features. I love all my children equally and I start giving this list and then I think of other ones and I'm, "Oh but this and, oh but that." Off the top of my head, the work we're doing around Virtual TPM and Shielded Virtual Machine, we see that as a crucial long term strategy play. We've actually been working on this for a number of years. We started working on it right after we shipped Windows Server 2012, and the thing that excites me most about that technology is worldwide we have a whole bunch of users who aren't using public cloud, aren't using hosted cloud, either because they don't trust it or more frequently because they have government and regulatory compliance that stops them from doing that.
Now, whenever I've talked with those customers to date, the attitude of those customers has always been that "This is a political problem, it's not a technical problem, it's not something that you, Mr. Engineer at Microsoft, can solve." And with Shielded Virtual Machine we're trying to come out and say, actually we can solve this, we can build a technical solution where you can take your workload, move it to a public cloud or hosted cloud in a way that meets all the requirements and regulations of your industry, or the government, and so on.
So our expectation is that's going to really unblock a lot of people from moving to public and hosted cloud components. So that's a big one.
Then kind of going to the other end of the spectrum, and I don't know if you've seen the What's New in Hyper-V session I'm doing, but there's so many features I struggle to do it in an hour; so going less for the important but kind of my favorites … one is PowerShell Direct. It is just amazing, and the sorts of automation and deployment and build ... and we have features like this in every release. This is one of those features where we had the user data to say that this was a good thing to do. We kind of sketched it out on the whiteboard and we planned it out and we're like, "OK, this looks like a good thing," and then once we'd built it, well, oh my goodness, this is amazing!
And the entire development team has fallen in love with it and we use it a lot, and all the demos that I do, they're all built using PowerShell Direct and so on. So last week we had the MVP Summit and I did a session for the Windows Server MVPs there.
The title I gave this session was "Hold My Beer While I Build the Data Centre." What I had was a single laptop with dual SSD, 32 GB of RAM, running the latest build of Windows 10 and using a combination of nested virtualization, PowerShell Direct and Nano Server and, of course, Windows Server containers. I basically started this session, hit go on a button and the demo started with three files: the script, an ISO and a WIM file. I hit go, and spent 80 minutes talking about what on earth was happening on the screen behind me.
At the end of 80 minutes, I'd stood up the domain with two domain controllers, a DHCP Server, a management console, a 4-node Storage Spaces Direct plus an 8-node Hyper-V cluster.
On the Hyper-V cluster I'd then stood up 16 virtual machines to act as container hosts, and in each container host I'd stood up four websites running in containers, all completely automated in 80 minutes. And that just wouldn't have been possible without PowerShell Direct, so it's amazing what it enables.
The third thing is geekier and esoteric. The work that we're doing with ReFS [Resilient File System], I'm so excited because we've been talking about ReFS for a while now and really ... and I mean this is the problem when you're working on a new technology to replace an existing one, is that for the last two releases ReFS has been more of an academic exercise.
BA: We've been saying like one day Johnny is going to grow up and achieve great things, but we haven't had much that we can point to and say this. And the stuff that we're doing in Windows Server 2016 around VHD creation, VHD merge and starting to use some of the intelligence of ReFS. One: I'm super happy to finally have that. Two: I just think it's insanely cool and, Three: when we go out with Server 2016 we are going to be making a big push to say "Hey, your storage where you store your VHDs should be in a ReFS volume." So we're happy to be able to do that.
I mean, from the engineering side, for the last two releases, as we've been building, one of the questions we've had is, Will we be able to recommend ReFS as the default storage for VHDs? In the last two releases we've come back and said No, it's not ready. Windows Server 2016 is the first time we're going to be able to say ReFS, is the fastest and the most reliable option.


It is possible to have a pro site level 1 level 2 level 3 level 6 without domain mapping and domain level a, domain level b, domain level c using pro sites plugin. If so how would how would I set that up.
You can achieve levels with and without domain mapping, however you will need to use your level hierarchy to do so.
Keep in mind that with prosites each new level inherits the capabilities of the level below it, so when you set a new capability you are setting the lowest level that can use that feature.
This means that you can enable domain mapping but everything above the first level that you activate it for will be able to use domain mapping as well.
The above example is typical. You cannot take away domain mapping from level 4. Once a capability is active then it remains so.
Hope this help to clear up a few things :slight_smile: Please let me know if I can be of more help!
The answer to your question is a definite Yes. Please have a look at the screenshot.
Do you mean that you can NOT activate domain mapping whatsoever? Or is it that you find it conflicting with Pro Sites?
2. Re-install Domain Mapping. Check your DNS.
I can network activate domain mapping and it works fine. However, if I try to assign domain mapping to a pro site level it is not in the selection of available domains. I have the same problem when trying to add it to individual sites.
However, if I try to assign domain mapping to a pro site level it is not in the selection of available domains. I have the same problem when trying to add it to individual sites.
I am sorry but I cannot understand what you mean by this.
Can you please tell me the process you follow step by step and on which panels/screens the selection is not available?
How could you? It is network activated... ???
if I network activate it I see what you have in the screen shot. does that mean this plugin cannot be activated on an individual site by site basis? that may be my problem I was thinking it could be activated on individual sites.
does that mean this plugin cannot be activated on an individual site by site basis?
I was thinking it could be activated on individual sites.
You can. Actually there is no other way. It means that you will have to go to each and every individual site you want to map and activate the mapped domain as I have explained to you above.
You see, when you have your TLD (Top Level Domain) site called mydom.com turned to a multisite, it means that every single/individual subsite (mydom.com/testdom or testdom.mydom.com) that users create there (those are NOT TLDs), can and will be individually turned to one different TLD respectively (nicedom.com, herdom.com, hisdom.com, etc), once you apply/activate Domain Mapping on every single one of them.
I have found that I cannot use the plugin as I thought. I do see that I can use it on individual sites if I network activate it first. Once I have members I think I will need to put the site in maintenance mode to activate sites. I believe there may be another option I am also exploring.
I believe there may be another option I am also exploring.
So, I guess you can mark this post as resolved.
Thank you for the rep points Ren.
i had setting 4 level's on prosites, i want only the level 4 can using the domain mapping, but the prosites with the wpmu domain mapping is not function. after i try to using mu domain mapping, can done it.
but the way i more hope wpmu staff can solve for us. thanks.
I don't know how much experience you had with domain mapping, but I am sorry to say that I find your statement not correct.
You see we used to have the WordPress MU Domain Mapping on our sites before switching to WPMUDEV Domain Mapping plugin. There are a couple of differences but what you mention is NOT one of them.
Furthermore WordPress MU Domain Mapping has to be placed in the mu-plugins folder which means it is automatically activated for ALL sites, leaving you NO control on individually activating it for specific only sites.
On the other hand -when used together with Pro Sites- you CAN have WPMUDEV Domain Mapping plugin ONLY activated AFTER a certain level. This gives the super-admin more flexibility. For my eyes at least.
I do hope my explanations clarify things a little better.
Thanks jlloke82 I have come up with the same solution. That is to use WordPress MU Domain Mapping which to my understanding can now be placed in the plugins folder. I have not activated a site yet with the new plugin, but I see that I can now select it for a certain level or higher in the pro sites premium themes. By reevaluating the site structure I have changed how I will use this plugin a little.
However you were in great hands with marikamitsos!
I hope you are all fixed up now?
can teach me how to using prosite with domain mapping? step by step.
You assign the minimum level that you want to use Domain Mapping. All levels after that will inherit the ability to use Domain Mapping. Here are the Pro Site Installation instructions for reference.

Parliament rejects "no-deal" Brexit, will vote next on delay.
British lawmakers faced a choice on Brexit this week: deal or no-deal. They chose none of the above.
After overwhelmingly voting Tuesday to reject, for a second time, the withdrawal agreement Prime Minister Theresa May had negotiated with the EU, on Wednesday, Parliament voted for an amendment that would rule out a "no-deal Brexit"—a highly risky scenario that would likely result in sharply higher food prices and delays in getting goods into the country, among numerous other disruptions. MPs actually voted to rule out no-deal twice after a complicated set of parliamentary maneuvers that aren't really worth explaining here but led to the bizarre spectacle of the ruling Conservative party trying to whip its members to vote against its own motion.
Wednesday's vote is not binding and in no way takes the no-deal scenario off the table. A no-deal Brexit is still what will happen automatically if no further action is taken by March 29, the previously agreed to withdrawal date.
Parliament also voted Wednesday against an amendment that would have endorsed the so-called Malthouse compromise, a scenario under which Britain would leave the EU without a deal but with an extended transition period and a somewhat-fudged replacement for the controversial Irish backstop. The EU had already ruled out this option, even if Parliament had voted for it.
Parliament will now vote Thursday on whether to request an extension to Article 50, the legal mechanism under which Britain is withdrawing from the union. It's also now increasingly likely that May will put her withdrawal agreement up for a third meaningful vote, now that the only alternative on offer, no-deal, has been rejected. Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn rejected the deal/no-deal binary choice, saying the government should debate his party's alternative plan, a "soft Brexit" that involves a permanent customs union with the European Union, which Brexiteers say would not be a Brexit at all.
The motion the government will put up for vote Thursday, which is still subject to amendment, will set a deadline of next Wednesday for Parliament to approve a deal. If they do, May will ask European governments for an extension just until June 30. If they don't, she will ask for a longer extension that would require Britain to take part in EU Parliament elections this spring, a scenario May's government had hoped to avoid.

The Farnham Pottery Sold! June 2011
June 24, 2011 DL
On Friday 24th June 2011, The Farnham (Building Preservation) Trust exchanged contracts to sell its freehold interest in the Grade II listed Farnham Pottery in Wrecclesham to Mr and Mrs Hains for an undisclosed figure.
Purchased by the Trust in 1998, the Pottery was being offered for sale through commercial property expert Hollis Hockley at a guide price in excess of £400,000.
It was understood that the new owners would be working with The Farnham Pottery Trust, the ceramics based educational business, to ensure the site's future as a centre for local pottery and ceramics.
David Graham, Vice-Chairman of the Farnham Building Preservation Trust, said: "When we purchased the pottery 12 years ago it was the Trust's aim to ensure the conservation of the site and its buildings for future generations as a valuable example of local industrial architecture and heritage. This has been achieved and the sale to Mr and Mrs Hains assures not only the buildings' ongoing preservation but also its future use as a centre for traditional pottery and ceramics.
"The proceeds from the sale will allow the Trust to move on to other projects in Farnham and reinvest the funds to safeguard the future of other historical properties that are intrinsically important to the fabric and character of the town."

OK, so many of you will be reading this and thinking, "Hey Dummy, April 22nd is Earth Day". Well of course it is, but it is also the 40th anniversary of Sir Robin Knox-Johnston's completion of the first-ever single-handed solo non-stop circumnavigation - 30,000 miles, 313 days at sea, most out of touch of humanity, in a 32 ft teak ketch. Nine people entered the Sunday Times, Golden Globe Race in 1968 to be the first to accomplish this. Only one, Robin Knox-Johnston made it finishing on April 22nd 1969. Six abandoned, one sank (Nigel Tetley), one decided to keep sailing (Moitessier) and one was driven mad (Crowhurst).
Sailing round the world single-handed non-stop is called the Everest of Sailing. One difference: over 1,500 people have climbed Everest. Less than 100 in 40 years have achieved a non-stop solo circumnavigation.
1. Blog about it: On April 22nd do a post congratulating RKJ - whatever you think is an appropriate message - then link to another blog who should in turn do a congratulatory post, again linking to another blog, etc, creating a chain of bloggers and a virtual Robin Knox-Johnston Day. The wonderful 70.8% blog has a great excerpt from a book about RKJ's accomplishment that summarizes well what it took to make it.
3. Post to The Wall on Facebook: I created a group in Facebook to make April 22nd RKJ Day on the Web. You can join it here. Best way to show your support is to post to the wall. Do it anytime and I will copy the posts over to this blog. There are now over 100 members from all over the wolrd.
4. Twitter: Do a tweat on April 22nd, including #RKJ in the text. I will find it and post in on this blog.


The regal Mullein demands attention - tall and upright, with bold, furry leaves and an impressive flowering spike it towers above most common herbs and seems to be keeping a watchful eye. The flowering spike is densely covered with bright yellow flowers that greet the weary walker with a myriad of eyes. Dipped in tallow or wax this spike used to be much used as a simple torch. The furry leaves on the other hand, were used to line shoes for extra warmth and comfort. Mullein is an ancient magical herb that played an important role in folk-medicine. It was usually the centrepiece of the '9 herb bundle' around which the other herbs were arranged. Its obvious solar attributes made it a favourite herb for St. John's /midsummer rites. Ceremonial Mullein torches were lit after dark and paraded around the village to scare off evil creatures. Hung in the stables it protected the animals against the evil works of witches and demons and against thunder and lightening.
Mullein is not just soft on the outside - it is also softening by virtue of its inner nature. Applied externally, compresses of the leaves, which contain mucilage properties, are said to soften tumours, hardened swellings and inflammatory conditions of the skin. The leaves and flowers are highly recommended as a cough remedy, especially for a dry, hacking cough, asthma, bronchitis etc. It is also sometimes given for kidney complaints. The tea must be strained through coffee filter paper as the fine hairs can be irritating on the mucous membrane if swallowed. Old herbals often mention mullein leaves as a smoking herb to alleviate lung complaints. An infused oil can be prepared with the flowers which is an effective remedy for earaches.

Marxist–Leninist Atheism
Yazmin December 2, 2021, 4:09pm #1
The Spiritual Life – 7 Jun 20
Marxist–Leninist atheism, also known as Marxist–Leninist scientific atheism, is the irreligious and anti-clerical element of Marxism–Leninism, the official state ideology of the Soviet Union.
Est. reading time: 17 minutes
I found this bit from a blog and I found what it says about the Marx and Engels bit about them being Atheists questionable, especially with essays like this:

Why%20Marx%20was%20not%20an%20Atheist.pdf
Tell me what your thoughts are about this.
Fiangol December 2, 2021, 8:29pm #2
You hit the target! I read both your posts. Most of the philosophers like Marx didn't have any knowledge about sciences or arts. Most of them follow ancestor philosophers without any information in sciences. Marx wasn't an Atheist because he know nothing about Logic or Physics.
Scientists didn't follow the philosophers' ideas. You can't find a scientist that ever obeyed any scientific method which was invented by a philosopher. Why? Because all philosophers were and are followers not inventors. The debate is too long to discuss about it here, but as a person who wasted his half of life to read bunch and bunch of nonsense books of philosophers from Wittgenstein to Heidegger, I recommend you Do not take them seriously. Except someone like John Locke, rest of them were some free eaters.(Specially in 19th and 20th century)
Liz December 2, 2021, 8:52pm #3
From the first essay it's clear that Marx was using both atheism and religion to prop up his supposedly "scientific" communist philosophy.
Religion may well be an "opiate" for people, but not necessarily because they are "oppressed" by capitalism (in his mind, the root of all evil).
Atheism isn't a philosophy, and just because one rejects religion it doesn't necessarily follow that, as an atheist, one will embrace Marxism (except in his mind). Of course everything, including religion, had to be destroyed, to make way for his communist utopia, which, ironically, was just as much of a delusion of his warped mind as religion ever was.
I agree - most philosophy (Kant is a good example) is an excruciatingly boring waste of time.
Have you ever read anything on Objectivism?
That is the one exception to the rule that I have found. Any of Ayn Rand's non-fiction is good.
jbecker December 2, 2021, 9:50pm #5
No text by Marx is worth the time and effort of exegesis. He dealt in wrong premises, wrong reasoning, and so, not surprisingly, came to wrong conclusions. (Few on the Right have read Marx, but at least some of us have, whereas I have known none on the Left who have read more than the most common quotations from his works, or from the works that bear his name but were actually written by the somewhat more intelligent Engels.)
However, I read the texts you link to, Yazmin, since you have asked us to comment on them.
The first, from "The Spiritual Life", can simply be discarded. It says nothing worth commenting on. But if there is some particular point you want me to say something about, tell me what it is and I'll do it.
The second, by Andy Blunden, is also worthless. But it is striking how he misunderstands what he quotes. In the 1842 quotation, the young Marx is saying that atheism is no longer a thing for socialism to be concerned with, no longer "needed", NOT that it is wrong. Contrary to the title of this essay by Blunden, Marx WAS an atheist. Of course it's all too easy to mistake Marx's meaning because he is not a good writer. He makes nothing clear because he could not think clearly. Take the quotation about the "earthly family" and the "holy family" - it is a non-sequitur.
Marx was an atheist, but nothing follows from that. Atheism compels nothing in logic. Being an atheist does not mean that you are a good person or a bad person, a humanist or a nihilist, a communist or a capitalist, a liberal or a conservative.
jbecker December 2, 2021, 10:05pm #6
Of course it was necessary to write against Marx. He had to be debunked. And he has been, uncountable times. Numerous thinkers have done it. What I mean is, there is no need for me or anyone else to do it again. The more he is scorned, the less attention that is paid to him now and in the future, the better.
Yazmin and others:
The most readable and sensible critical biography of Karl Marx that I have come across is "The Red Prussian" by Leopold Schwarzschild. If you are looking for one.
There are several editions. One has an Introduction by the famous British Atheist, Antony Flew. Disclosure: I had a hand in getting it published because, at that time, I did not want the English version to go out of print.
Liz December 3, 2021, 4:16am #8
Wow, didn't know your role in that ! I still have the copy I got when you had recommended it several years ago - it's very good.
jbecker December 3, 2021, 5:53am #9
So glad you found it worth while, Liz!
I only had a hand in getting it back into print in the latest edition. And I asked Antony Flew to write the Introduction.
Fiangol December 3, 2021, 2:11pm #10
Dear Jillian, I think Marx was not a true (pure) atheist He was a nihilist that I think is different as a true Atheist. He pretended, because his ideology had an Utopia like all religions. Atheism which he claimed on, was established on some principles that none was Logic. He called these principles "Dialectic Materialism" but most of them were neither Logic nor scientific. He claimed on Atheism because he wanted the support of young generation.
jbecker December 3, 2021, 2:20pm #11
Dear Fiangol - can you quote something he said that indicates he was not an atheist?
No I can't. I try to conclude his thoughts and I can't trust only on his quotes. I am sure you know and you recognize him better because in Iran we have less sources for studying about Marxism. (Fortunately)
Liz December 3, 2021, 4:46pm #13
I think what you were getting at was that Marx conflated atheism with his own communist ideology. So many who have followed in his footsteps have done the same thing!
Fiangol December 3, 2021, 10:02pm #14
Exactly. He rubbed something from someone to establish a fabricated ideology which is used by people who believe nothing. They don't believe god, morals, ethics, culture and… . Then they can do everything. Everything that can bring them power. A true Atheist do not believe god, but she/he believes human being. An Atheist is engaged (is undertaking) to ethics-without religion- but Marx and his followers wasn't (weren't?) engaged ethics. Therefore I think he was not a true Atheist.
Liz:
Dear Liz, unfortunately I've lost my trust (belief) to all philosophers, specially new philosophers. Most of them declare that they have built a new system (methodology) by flourishing their thoughts with some strange or up to date concepts and words. But after you study their systems, you will notice that you have found nothing.
Liz December 3, 2021, 10:47pm #16
That's what I like about Objectivism, though.
It's very reality-based. The "3 R's" of Objectivism are "Reality, Reason, and Rational self-interest".
We live by basing our reasoning on the facts of reality, and then use our knowledge of reality to act in our rational self interest.

DODGE MACKNIGHT (1860-1950) was an American painter who forged a reputation in Boston art circles at the turn of the twentieth century as arguably America's first modernist and, alongside contemporaries John Singer Sargent and Winslow Homer, one of the foremost watercolorists of his day. Through his work he held out a mirror that personally expressed "the scenic wonders of the world," and "the solid and eternal base of continual communion with nature." While many reviewers were shocked by the vividly-colored landscapes of his post-Impressionist palette, other, more progressively-minded critics greatly admired his intense hues and lively brushwork, as did widely-respected artists such as Philip Hale and Harvard University Professor of Art Denman Ross. His patrons came to include a host of Boston's most prominent private and public collectors of the era.
Macknight was born in Providence, Rhode Island in 1860. Though he passed the entrance examination to prestigious Brown University, he chose instead to pursue an artistic career, initially serving an apprenticeship with a theatrical scene and sign designer from 1876 to 1878. Following this endeavor he embarked on a five year period of employment with the Tabor Art Company of New Bedford, Massachusetts, a firm that manufactured reproductions of paintings and photographs. During these years he began painting in his spare time, and in December, 1883, using a loan from a friend as his basis of support, departed for Paris, enrolling in the studio of the eminent Academic painter and teacher Fernand Cormon. While a student at "Atelier Cormon," Macknight studied alongside Toulouse-Lautrec, Emile Bernard, Louis Anquetin, Eugene Boch, and John Peter Russell, and from 1885 to 1887 exhibited at the Paris Salon (Macknight being one of a select few students whose work was chosen for display). Boch and Russell introduced Macknight to the Parisian avant-garde, and it was Russell, an Australian Impressionist painter and portraitist much heralded in his day, who introduced Macknight to Vincent Van Gogh in March, 1886 (Van Gogh having arrived at Cormon's studio in Paris from Antwerp on the 28th of February), and who went on to paint historically significant portraits of both Van Gogh and Macknight. (The Macknight portrait, executed ca. 1887, is the only known portrait of the artist, and sold at auction for $228,000 in 2007.) Shortly after meeting Van Gogh, and following a two-year stay in Paris, Macknight departed for the south of France, traveling from there to the Algerian coast. In March, 1888, he arrived back in France in the village of Fontvieille, northeast of the artist's colony at Arles, where Van Gogh was then situated. The two artists met several times, with Van Gogh extending an invitation to Macknight to join the colony at Arles; though Macknight declined, choosing instead to continue his travels throughout Europe, the historical record reveals that they did explore in tandem the theory of disparate color complementaries, with the Dutch master even being influenced by his young American friend, executing one of his famous Sunflower canvasses (featuring orange flowers in a yellow pot, set against a turquoise background) after having viewed several of Macknight's similar still-lifes (including a yellow pot on a violet foreground, and an orange pot on a blue one).
In 1888, following in the footsteps of Russell and Monet, Macknight made the first of many trips to the storm-tossed island of Belle-Ile-sur-le-mer, off the coast of Brittany, where, pursuing a passion for color shared and encouraged by his friend Russell, he produced a series of watercolors that many art historians believe are representative of his finest efforts. That same year Bostonians were first introduced to Macknight's work when he exhibited thirty-five watercolors of European scenery at the Doll and Richards Gallery. (Excepting the years 1893-1896, he exhibited there annually for the balance of his career.) Another exhibition of his European landscapes took place in 1890 at John Singer Sargent's studio in London. In 1892, while in Orihuela, Spain, he married the governess of Russell's children, Louise Queyrel, a French woman from Valserres, in the Haute-Alpes, and in 1897, after spending eleven years traveling extensively throughout Europe and the Mediterranean, he returned to America with his wife and young son, initially living in Mystic, Connecticut before settling in East Sandwich on Cape Cod, Massachusetts, where Macknight would reside for the rest of his life.
Macknight reached the apex of his career during the 1920s, with his annual watercolor exhibitions at the Doll and Richards Gallery attracting crowds of visitors and frequently selling out within hours. His stature was such that in 1921, his watercolors were exhibited at the Boston Art Club, along with those of Sargent and Winslow Homer, America's other preeminent watercolorists. Two years later, sixty-three of his watercolors were featured at the Exposition d'Art Americain in Paris, again with Sargent's and Homer's (as well as the work of the young sculptor, Paul Manship). The Boston architect Frank A. Burns recorded his impressions of the famous American watercolorists' show in Paris, writing, "Just before (viewing the Salon) I had seen the remarkable exhibition in Paris of four Americans: Sargent, Dodge Macknight, Winslow Homer, and Paul Manship. There were fresh and interesting motives in the American work that seemed wholly lacking in the long corridors of the Salon." This exhibition of the three American watercolorists (plus the sculptor, Manship) comprised an event that is mentioned, and its significance weighed, in every history of American watercolor.
Macknight's reputation at the conclusion of the nineteenth and first quarter of the twentieth centuries engendered an interest in his work that resulted in its display at many of the Northeast's most prestigious venues, including the New York Water Color Club (member); the Boston Water Color Club (member); the New Society of Artists, New York City (member); the Hampton Institute, Hampton, Virginia (1893); the Gallery at the Fiske Library, New Orleans, LA (1893, 1899); the St. Botolph Club, Boston (1894, 1907, 1912); Mrs. Henry Whitman Studio, Boston (1895); the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts Annual Exposition (1895-1899); the Artist's Institute of Chicago (1895-1924); H.S. Hutchinson and Co., New Bedford (1898, 1902); the Boston Art Club (1899); the Artist's Association of New Orleans (1899); the Black and White Club, Plymouth, MA (1902); the New Orleans Art Club (1904, 1932); the Twentieth Century Club, Boston (1907); the New York Armory Show (1913); the New Bedford Art Club (1920); and the Vose Gallery, Boston (1920s; several exhibitions, all sold out). His work is currently represented in several of the country's major public collections, including the Museum of Fine Arts (Boston); the Addison Gallery of American Art, Andover, MA; the Cleveland Museum of Art; the Brooklyn Museum; the Fogg Art Museum, Harvard University; the Rhode Island School of Design; and the Worcester Art Museum. His watercolors were included in the exhibition The Bostonians: Painters of an Elegant Age (1986-1987), which traveled from the Boston Museum of Fine Arts to the Denver Art Museum and the Terra Museum of American Art (Chicago).
In 1931, Macknight's wife and son died. Though he lived for another nineteen years, he never painted again. Perhaps a fitting epitaph comes via the declaration of the well-known collector of modern art, Albert Gallatin, that Macknight, in his opinion, belongs in the ranks of Whistler, Homer, Sargent, Marin, and Demuth as one of the all-time great masters of American watercolor.

Мария Грация Кутули (; 26 октября 1962 — 19 ноября 2001) — итальянская журналистка, работавшая репортёром итальянской ежедневной газеты Corriere della Sera. Она была убита во время своей командировки в Афганистан, где освещала ход военного вторжения США в страну, начавшегося после терактов 11 сентября 2001 года. Кутули была убита в районе между городами Джелалабад и Кабул вместе с тремя другими журналистами. Кутули стала первой женщиной и первым итальянским журналистом, убитым во время войны в Афганистане в 2001 году.

Биография
Мария Грация Кутули родилась и выросла в Катании, (Сицилия, Италия). Она изучала философию и окончила Катанийский университет. С 1990 года Кутули проживала в Милане, будучи профессиональным журналистом.

Карьера
Мария Грация Кутули проработала журналистом более 11 лет. Сначала она трудилась в газете La Sicilia, где писала театральные обзоры, а также освещала местные новости. Кутули публиковалась в таких журналах как Epoca и Panorama. Она ездила в Израиль, Камбоджу, Судан, Руанду и ЮАР и писала статьи не по заданию работодателей, таким образом завоёвывая репутацию иностранного корреспондента. С 1997 года Кутули работала в Corriere della Sera. После её убийства в Афганистане ей посмертно был присвоен статус специального корреспондента Corriere della Sera.

Гибель
Мария Грация Кутули погибла вместе с испанским военным корреспондентом Хулио Фуэнтесом из El Mundo, а также австралийским телеоператором Гарри Бартоном и фотографом-афганцем Азизом Уллой Хайдари, работавшими на агентство Рейтер. 19 ноября 2001 года они были убиты примерно в 90 километрах от Кабула недалеко от селения Саруби, расположенного в провинции Нангархар, когда их группа путешествовала по территории между Джелалабадом и Кабулом. Вскрытие её тела показало, что она умерла от четырёх огнестрельных ранений в спину, и подтвердило, что её мочка уха была специально отрезана одним из убийц, желавшего присвоить драгоценную серьгу.

Группа журналистов выехала небольшой колонной примерно из восьми автомобилей из Джелалабада и направлялась в Кабул. Первые несколько автомобилей колонны были остановлены возле моста вооружёнными людьми, говорящими на пушту и представившимися талибами. В машины начали бросать камни и стрелять, в результате четыре автомобиля, шедшие сзади, развернулись и уехали обратно в Джелалабад. Перед тем, как её убили, Кутили была изнасилована впоследствии осужденным убийцей Резой Ханом.

В день смерти Кутули была опубликована её последняя статья в Corriere della Sera под названием «Запас нервно-паралитического газа на базе Осамы». Эта история была известна и ранее, но в её заметке сообщалось об обнаружении химического завода, представлявшего угрозу во время военных действий.

Суд
Реза Хан свидетельствовал, что талибы заказали убийство журналистов. Другие независимые источники также указывали на талибов.

В 2004 году Реза Хан был осуждён в Кабуле за убийства и изнасилования, а также за другие преступления против граждан Афганистана. В ноябре 2004 года он был приговорён к смертной казни. В 2005 году два брата-афганца также были осуждены за убийство журналистов. Хан был расстрелян в октябре 2007 года одновременно с казнями ещё 14 человек, в том числе осужденных за убийства других журналистов.

Контекст
Группа журналистов с Кутули была убита в течение недели после падения талибов, когда и другие журналисты также являлись потенциальными мишенями для них.

Влияние
Мария Грация Кутули после своего убийства стала героиней в Италии. На её панихиде в соборе Сант-Агата, в её родном регионе Сицилии, присутствовало около 5000 человек. В марте 2008 года в её родной Катании был основан фонд Cutuli Onlus. Там же была основана школа для иммигрантов её имени. В Италии была учреждена национальная премия в области журналистики, которой было присвоено имя Кутули.

Реакция
Среди тех, кто публично отреагировал на убийство Кутули, были президент Италии Карло Азелио Чампи и премьер-министр Сильвио Берлускони.

Will Ginoo get his memory back on Sony SAB's Aladdin: Naam Toh SunaHoga?
December 30, 2020 Vipul	Leave a comment
Taking a rather dramatic turn, Sony SAB's Aladdin: Naam Toh SunaHoga is here with yet another surprise for the viewers. While Aladdin (Siddharth Nigam)is getting flashbacks of his past life, he is also now on a mission to take away Zafar's (Aamir Dalvi)powers and get back the memories of the people of Baghdad. On the other hand, Yasmine (Ashi Singh) is also nearing the truth.
Once again taking the Kala Chor avatar, Aladdin successfully takes away two of Zafar's power devices– the glove and the staff. However, Zafar still owns one last power, this one, in his blood. Aladdin convinces Zafar to store people's memories in a cave, which he plans to steal later, only to realize that the door is sealed with Zafar's blood. Using Zafar's staff to open the door, Aladdin and Ginoo (Raashul Tandon) eventually reach the box of memories. Yasmine, who had been following them, arrives there too and the two indulge in a fight, ultimately releasing Ginoo's memory from the box.
Despite this, will Ginoo get his memory back? How will Aladdin and Yasmine help people of Baghdad regain their memories?
Siddharth Nigam, playing the role of Aladdin said, "It felt so good to be back in the Kala Chor avatar after so long. I really like that character as he is someone who does good deeds without revealing his identity. This new turn of events might be Aladdin's final chance of defeating Zafar and viewers are in for a lot of surprises with the upcoming episodes."
Raashul Tandon, playing the role of Ginoo said, "While Aladdin has already been getting flashbacks of his past life, he is now committed on getting back the memories of people of Baghdad. However, Yasmine has been proving to be a hindrance in his plans. Since the ball containing Ginoo's memory falls and breaks because of Yasmine, it will be interesting for our viewers to watch what happens next. We have been having a lot of fun shooting these scenes, that require us to go sometime in a cave, a jungle or snow."

Nikk and Avneet

Avneet Kaur reveals her mantra for the perfect balance between work and education
Teen sensation Avneet Kaur, who has mesmerized her fans with her phenomenal performance as Yasmine in Sony SAB's Aladdin: Naam Toh Suna Hoga, is preparing for her 12th board exams (HSC) while continuing to her dazzle the audiences on screen.
Off-screen Avneet is preparing for a different test as she is aiming to seamlessly balance her role as Yasmine in Sony SAB's Aladdin: Naam Toh Suna Hoga while also preparing for her exams.
Avneet, who has grown up managing her academic and career with a perfect balance, but this year is rather crucial than any other academic year and to understand how she is juggling between education and her shoots, we caught up with Yasmine and she was pleased to share her mantra during this key phase of her life:
"I feel 12th boards are really important for any student and everyone goes through the serious transition from 'fun' 11th standard to a much challenging 12th boards. As much as I enjoy my work and going for the shoot, but for now it is no longer my daily ritual. I'm focusing more on my academics but at the same time, I don't want my fans and viewers to miss Yasmine, so I go to the set 1-2 times in a week to complete my scenes."
Avneet is following a strict schedule and time table to accommodate all her commitments. As a highly sought after artist, who apart from her popular show Aladdin: Naam Toh Suna Hoga, is also one of the most loved social media influencers. Sharing about her routine these days, Avneet said,
"I am used to juggle between my academics and work. Although this year college is equally demanding as there are several projects and assignments to deliver. I'm fortunate to have an excellent tutor who is helping me with all the subjects. Every morning, the first thing I do is make a schedule for the day and maintaining a to-do list helps me keep a track of all that needs to be done. It is challenging but I'm sure later in life I'm going to look back and cherish what I was able to accomplish."

With Aladdin's ghost back to torment his biggest enemy, Zafar. Fans are set to be taken on a thrilling adventure as Aladdin's ghost will expose Zafar's crimes while nearly killing him previously in Sony SAB's Aladdin: Naam Toh Suna Hoga.

Ali's (Siddharth Nigam) magnificent pack of genies take this opportunity to scare Zafar (Aamir Dalvi) by making Zafar see horrific visuals of blood stained hand and the ghost of the king standing in front of him. Zafar is traumatized and confides in Ali and Yasmine (Avneet Kaur) that Aladdin's ghost is wandering around him only to prove that Zafar is the real killer of the King. Situations take a serious turn when Zafar receives a suspicious letter from Aladdin's ghost stating his intentions of exposing Zafar in front of Baghdad, right in the middle of the market. On the other hand, Yasmine is finding it hard to believe that Aladdin's ghost really exists and decides to keep a close eye on Ali. Zafar makes his way to the market and Yasmine forces Ali to accompany her to really see for herself if Aladdin's ghost really appears or not.
Will Aladdin's ghost really appear in front of anyone? Is Yasmine's suspicion on Ali come true?
Siddharth Nigam, playing the character of Aladdin aka Ali said, "Ali's masterplan of exposing Zafar is finally reaching its final stage. Aladdin is really close to receive the long awaited justice. The upcoming episodes this week are full of surprises and shooting for the upcoming episodes have been thoroughly exciting for me as now even I'm feeling the rush while playing Aladdin's character. The episodes further will uncover Zafar's sins and our viewers are going to enjoy the events that will unfold. So keep watching to know how Aladdin's ghost scares Zafar into revealing the truth."
Aamir Dalvi, playing the character of Zafar said, "Zafar is disturbed with Aladdin's ghost haunting him but he is determined to not reveal the truth behind the King's assassination. With Ginoo, the most powerful Ginn by his side, Zafar will defeat Aladdin all over again. Shooting for these episodes was challenging as an artist and I performed a completely new emotion of Zafar. The upcoming episodes are packed with thrill and excitement and I'm sure our lovely viewers will enjoy it."
