The organisers of Keswick Mountain Festival have released a short (one minute) promo film to showcase the 14 sports events that will take place during this year's festival, from 17-19 May.
The 2019 Keswick Mountain Festival sports programme incorporates established and new events, including running, cycling, swimming, triathlons and aquathons (swim-run events). New for 2019 is a second cycling sportive, joining the popular Back o' Skiddaw. The Cocker Hoop, on Sunday 19 May, is a challenging 72km ride over iconic mountain passes and includes almost 1,500m of ascent with four summits. It has been added to offer something different for those who have ridden the Back o' Skiddaw in recent years and as a second option for cyclists. The Cocker Hoop also forms the final leg of the new Keswick Conqueror Challenge, a three-stage event over two days that also includes the Twice Round The Island 3km swim in Derwentwater and adidas TERREX 25k Trail Race on the Saturday.

2015 Ford Fusion Overview
Looking for the 2014 Model? 2014 Ford Fusion Model Overview
What's New for the 2015 Ford Fusion?
The 2015 Ford Fusion gets enhanced all-weather capability with optional all-wheel drive on SE trims.
2015 Ford Fusion Exterior
The 2015 Ford Fusion looks out of place in the midsize four-door sedan market, but only in the best possible way. The Aston Martin-inspired grille, the aggressive headlights, thin taillights, and numerous subtle details make it look like it belongs among upscale European luxury sedans.
2015 Ford Fusion Performance
2015 Ford Fusion performance varies wildly thanks to a large range of powertrain choices. The base engine is a 2.5-liter four-cylinder that produces 175 hp and 175 lb-ft of torque, but that can be upgraded to either a 1.5-liter turbocharged i-4, a 1.6-liter turbocharged i-4, or a 2.0-liter turbocharged i-4 with performance scaling all the way up to 240 hp and 270 lb-ft of torque. There's also the Fusion Hybrid and Fusion Energi plug-in hybrid that combine the 2.0-liter with a permanent magnet AC synchronous motor and a continuously variable transmission to get better efficiency at a small cost of power.
2015 Ford Fusion Efficiency
The 2015 Ford Fusion base engine gets 22 mpg city/34 mpg highway. The 1.5-liter gets 23/36 without Auto Start-Stop technology and 25/37 with it, the 1.6-liter gets 25/37, the 2.0-liter gets 22/33 with FWD and 22/31 with AWD, the hybrid gets 44/41., and the plug-in hybrid gets 40/mpg (or 95/81 MPGe).
2015 Ford Fusion Interior
The 2015 Ford Fusion uses recyclable or renewable materials for the seat fabric and foam inside hybrid models to further reduce their environmental footprint. Unfortunately, those hybrid models also offer less storage space because of the large battery pack. There's plenty of room for up to five passengers inside all models, however, and numerous features even before selecting options.
2015 Ford Fusion Safety
The 2015 Ford Fusion comes standard with antilock disc brakes, traction and stability control, front-seat side airbags, side curtain airbags, and tire pressure monitoring system. It received the highest possible five-star Overall Vehicle Score in the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's New Car Assessment Program.

Q: Безопасное выделение памяти для сокета Меня интересует, насколько опасна/безопасна такая работа с сокетом и буфером:
char message[] = "Hello there!\n";
char buf[sizeof(message)];
send(sock, message, sizeof(message), 0);
while(1)
{
    recv(sock, buf, sizeof(message), 0);
    printf(buf);//тут обработка принятого сообщения
}

если конкретно, то интересно, переполняем ли buf? Что вообще происходит с памятью, когда работает recv()?

A: Да, тут возможна проблема с printf(buf);.
Вы не записываете двоичный ноль (nil) после полученных по recv() данных. А printf(buf) будет просматривать buf, пока не встретит nil.
Более того, если в принятых данных будут элементы формата (т.е. %s, %d и т.п.), то printf полезет за несуществующими аргументами. Скорее всего дело закончится SIGSEGV (а вообще-то, такую ситуацию принято называть UB (undefined behavior)).
Правильно будет написать так:
char buf[sizeof(message)];
int l;

while ((l = recv(sock, buf, sizeof(message) - 1, 0)) > 0) {
   buf[l] = 0;
   printf("%s", buf);
   ...
}
// анализ l и errno обработка завершения

A: Разобрался. Ничего плохого с памятью не произойдёт. В буфер всегда будет приниматься не более sizeof(message). Это из-за цикла у меня создалось впечатление, что в буфер принимается слишком большое сообщение. Работа происходит только с char buf[sizeof(message)];
Прошу прощения за глупый вопрос. Спасибо за внимание.

Pacyfikacja Mokotowa – fala masowych mordów, grabieży, podpaleń i gwałtów, które przetoczyły się przez warszawską dzielnicę Mokotów w okresie powstania warszawskiego 1944 roku. Zbrodnie na jeńcach wojennych i cywilnej ludności dzielnicy popełniane były przez Niemców do momentu kapitulacji Mokotowa 27 września 1944, choć największe natężenie przybrały w pierwszych dniach powstania.

Niemieckie zbrodnie w pierwszym dniu powstania
1 sierpnia 1944 o godzinie 17.00 żołnierze Armii Krajowej uderzyli na niemieckie obiekty we wszystkich dzielnicach okupowanej Warszawy. Oddziały Obwodu V AK "Mokotów" poniosły tego dnia ciężkie straty podczas nieudanych ataków na silnie umocnione niemieckie punkty oporu przy ulicach Rakowieckiej i Puławskiej. Powstańcom nie udało się również zdobyć wielu innych celów natarcia – m.in. koszar w szkołach przy ulicach Kazimierzowskiej i Woronicza, Fortu Mokotów, czy toru wyścigów konnych na Służewcu. Na skutek tej porażki znaczna część oddziałów Obwodu V wycofała się do Lasu Kabackiego. Pięć kompanii pułku "Baszta" pod dowództwem podpułkownika Stanisława Kamińskiego "Daniela" obsadziło natomiast bloki mieszkalne w czworoboku ulic: Odyńca – Goszczyńskiego – Puławskiej – Alei Niepodległości. W następnych dniach powstańcom udało się jednak rozszerzyć swój stan posiadania oraz zorganizować silny ośrodek oporu na Górnym Mokotowie.

Już w nocy z 1 na 2 sierpnia 1944 jednostki SS, policji i Wehrmachtu dopuściły się na Mokotowie szeregu zbrodni wojennych. Wzięci do niewoli powstańcy byli rozstrzeliwani, rannych dobijano. Niemcy nie zważali przy tym na fakt, że żołnierze AK prowadzili walkę w sposób otwarty i posiadali przewidziane prawem oznaki żołnierskie – a więc walczyli zgodnie z konwencją haską. Zamordowano między innymi wszystkich polskich żołnierzy schwytanych podczas ataku na niemieckie punkty oporu przy ul. Rakowieckiej oraz kilkudziesięciu jeńców z batalionu AK "Karpaty", który atakował tor wyścigów konnych na Służewcu. Niemcy rozstrzelali także co najmniej 19 rannych i wziętych do niewoli powstańców z batalionu AK "Olza", który rozbito podczas ataku na Fort Mokotów. Część ofiar została pogrzebana żywcem, co potwierdziły wyniki ekshumacji przeprowadzonej w 1945.

Tej nocy doszło również do pierwszych mordów na cywilnej ludności Mokotowa. Po odparciu polskiego ataku żołnierze Luftwaffe należący do personelu Fliegerhorst-Kommandantur Warschau-Okecie (pol. "Dowództwo lotniska wojskowego Okęcie") spędzili blisko 500 cywilów na teren Fortu Mokotów. Wysiedleniom towarzyszyły doraźne egzekucje. Zamordowano wówczas wielu mieszkańców ulic Bachmackiej, Baboszewskiej i Syryńskiej. W domu przy ulicy Racławickiej 97 Niemcy spędzili blisko czternastu mieszkańców do piwnicy, a następnie wymordowali ich za pomocą granatów. Mordy na jeńcach i ludności cywilnej dokonywane były na rozkaz dowódcy garnizonu Okęcia – generała Doerflera.

Rozkaz Hitlera o zniszczeniu Warszawy i jego realizacja na Mokotowie

Na wieść o wybuchu powstania Hitler wydał Reichsführerowi-SS Himmlerowi oraz szefowi sztabu generalnego Naczelnego Dowództwa Wojsk Lądowych (OKH), generałowi Heinzowi Guderianowi ustny rozkaz zrównania Warszawy z ziemią i wymordowania wszystkich jej mieszkańców. Zgodnie z relacją SS-Obergruppenführera Ericha von dem Bach-Zelewskiego, którego mianowano dowódcą sił wyznaczonych do stłumienia powstania, rozkaz brzmiał mniej więcej następująco: "każdego mieszkańca należy zabić, nie wolno brać żadnych jeńców. Warszawa ma być zrównana z ziemią i w ten sposób ma być stworzony zastraszający przykład dla całej Europy". Rozkaz Hitlera o zniszczeniu Warszawy otrzymali również dowódcy niemieckiego garnizonu w Warszawie. SS-Oberführer Paul Otto Geibel, dowódca SS i policji (SS- und Polizeiführer) na dystrykt warszawski, zeznał po wojnie, że już wieczorem 1 sierpnia Himmler polecił mu telefonicznie: "niech pan zniszczy dziesiątki tysięcy". Z kolei 2 sierpnia dowódca garnizonu warszawskiego, generał Reiner Stahel, wydał podległym sobie oddziałom Wehrmachtu rozkaz mordowania wszystkich mężczyzn uważanych za rzeczywistych lub potencjalnych powstańców oraz brania zakładników spośród ludności cywilnej (w tym kobiet i dzieci).

Mokotów obsadzały w tym czasie dość silne jednostki niemieckie – m.in. 3. zapasowy batalion grenadierów pancernych SS w koszarach przy ul. Rakowieckiej (SS-Stauferkaserne), baterie artylerii przeciwlotniczej na Polu Mokotowskim, spieszone oddziały Luftwaffe w Forcie Mokotów i koszarach artylerii przeciwlotniczej przy ul. Puławskiej (Flakkaserne), czy oddział żandarmerii w gmachu komendy powiatowej przy ul. Dworkowej. Mimo tego realizacja eksterminacyjnego rozkazu Hitlera nie przyniosła na Mokotowie tak tragicznych rezultatów jak na Woli, Ochocie czy w Śródmieściu Południowym. Dzielnica uznawana była za odcinek peryferyjny więc przez dłuższy czas Niemcy nie prowadzili tam większych działań ofensywnych. Oddziały niemieckie, zachowując się biernie wobec powstańców, masowo mordowały jednak polską ludność cywilną znajdującą się w zasięgu ich działania. Palono także domy oraz dopuszczano się grabieży i gwałtów na kobietach. Ocalałą ludność wypędzano z domów i kierowano do obozu przejściowego w Pruszkowie, skąd wiele osób deportowano następnie do obozów koncentracyjnych lub wywieziono na roboty przymusowe w głąb III Rzeszy.

Masakra w więzieniu mokotowskim

W momencie wybuchu powstania w więzieniu mokotowskim przy ul. Rakowieckiej 37 przebywało 794 więźniów – w tym 41 małoletnich. 1 sierpnia obiekt ten był atakowany przez żołnierzy AK, którzy zdołali wedrzeć się do więzienia i zająć budynek administracyjny, lecz nie byli w stanie dotrzeć do budynków penitencjarnych.

2 sierpnia inspektor sądowy Kirchner, który pełnił obowiązki naczelnika więzienia, został wezwany do pobliskich koszar SS przy ulicy Rakowieckiej 4. SS-Obersturmführer Martin Patz, dowódca 3. zapasowego batalionu grenadierów pancernych SS, oświadczył mu, że generał Reiner Stahel zarządził zlikwidowanie wszystkich więźniów. Ową decyzję zatwierdził również SS-Oberführer Geibel, który nakazał dodatkowo rozstrzelanie polskich strażników. Kirchner sporządził wówczas protokół przejęcia, na mocy którego przekazał do dyspozycji Patza wszystkich znajdujących się w zakładzie więźniów. Tego samego dnia w godzinach popołudniowych na teren więzienia wkroczył oddział SS. Blisko 60 więźniów zmuszono do wykopania trzech masowych grobów na więziennym podwórzu, po czym rozstrzelano ich ogniem broni maszynowej. Następnie Niemcy zaczęli wyciągać pozostałych więźniów z cel i mordować ich nad wykopanymi mogiłami. W kilkugodzinnej egzekucji zginęło ponad 600 osób osadzonych w więzieniu mokotowskim.

Rzeź, która odbywała się na więziennym dziedzińcu była doskonale widoczna z okien cel, a obserwujący ją więźniowie zrozumieli, że są skazani na śmierć i nie mają nic do stracenia. Osadzeni ze znajdujących się na drugim piętrze oddziałów nr 6 i 7 zdecydowali się więc na desperacki krok i zaatakowali oprawców. Następnie pod osłoną nocy i przy pomocy ludności okolicznych domów od 200 do 300 więźniów zdołało przedostać się na teren kontrolowany przez powstańców.

Masakra w klasztorze jezuitów przy ul. Rakowieckiej

W pierwszym dniu powstania Dom Pisarzy Towarzystwa Jezusowego przy ulicy Rakowieckiej 61 nie został objęty walkami. W klasztorze schroniło się natomiast kilkunastu cywilów, którym strzelanina uniemożliwiła powrót do domów. Rankiem 2 sierpnia Dom Pisarzy został ostrzelany przez niemieckie działka przeciwlotnicze z pobliskiego Pola Mokotowskiego, a wkrótce później wtargnął do niego ok. 20-osobowy oddział SS – przysłany najprawdopodobniej z pobliskiej Stauferkaserne. SS-mani zarzucili przebywającym w klasztorze osobom, że z budynku ostrzeliwano niemieckich żołnierzy. Po pobieżnej rewizji, która nie doprowadziła do znalezienia żadnych dowodów na poparcie tych oskarżeń, Niemcy wyprowadzili z budynku przełożonego klasztoru, ks. superiora Edwarda Kosibowicza – rzekomo celem udzielenia dodatkowych wyjaśnień w dowództwie. W rzeczywistości zamordowano go strzałem w tył głowy na Polu Mokotowskim.

Po pewnym czasie pozostałych Polaków stłoczono w niewielkim pokoiku znajdującym się w podziemiach klasztoru, po czym obrzucono granatami. Następnie przez wiele godzin trwało metodyczne dobijanie rannych. Ofiarą masakry padło ponad 40 osób, w tym 8 kapłanów i 8 braci Towarzystwa Jezusowego. Zwłoki zamordowanych oblano benzyną i podpalono. Ocalało czternaście osób (w większości rannych), którym po chwilowym odejściu Niemców udało się wydostać spod sterty ciał i uciec z klasztoru.

Mordowanie ludności cywilnej

W pierwszych dniach sierpnia oddziały niemieckie na Mokotowie – zarówno jednostki SS i policji, jak i Wehrmachtu – wielokrotnie dokonywały wypadów mających na celu sterroryzowanie polskiej ludności cywilnej. Akcjom tym towarzyszyły zwykle doraźne egzekucje połączone z paleniem domów. Już 2 sierpnia SS-mani z koszar przy ul. Rakowieckiej zapuścili się w ulicę Madalińskiego, gdzie przystąpili do mordowania ludności cywilnej. Rozstrzelano wówczas co najmniej kilkudziesięciu mieszkańców domów pod numerami 18, 20, 19/21, 22, 23 i 25 (w większości mężczyzn). Zamordowano także sześciu mieszkańców domu przy ul. Kazimierzowskiej 76 (w tym trzy kobiety i niemowlę). W domu przy ul. Madalińskiego 27 Niemcy zamknęli dziesięciu mężczyzn w małej stolarni, gdzie następnie spalili ich żywcem.

3 sierpnia SS-Oberführer Geibel, wzmocniwszy kilkoma czołgami oddział żandarmerii z komendy powiatowej przy ul. Dworkowej, nakazał przeprowadzenie akcji mordowania ludności cywilnej w rejonie ulicy Puławskiej. Żandarmi dowodzeni przez Oberleutnanta Karla Lipschera dokonali terrorystycznego wypadu, posuwając się wzdłuż ulicy Puławskiej w kierunku południowym. Na ulicy Szustra (obecnie Jarosława Dąbrowskiego) rozstrzelali około 40 mieszkańców domów nr 1 i 3. Dotarli następnie aż do ulicy Boryszewskiej strzelając do uciekającej ludności cywilnej, której ciała zasłały Puławską i jej przecznice. Tego dnia wymordowano większość mieszkańców domów położonych w czworoboku ulic: Puławska – Belgijska – Boryszewska – Wygoda. Zginęło wówczas co najmniej 108 mieszkańców domów przy ul. Puławskiej nr 69, 71 i 73/75 oraz kilkadziesiąt osób zamieszkałych w domach przy ul. Belgijskiej. Wśród zamordowanych znalazło się wiele kobiet i dzieci. Z kolei z domów przy ul. Puławskiej 49 i 51 Niemcy i ich ukraińscy kolaboranci wyprowadzili ponad 150 osób – w większości kobiet i dzieci. Zatrzymanych ustawiono trójkami i poprowadzono ku siedzibie żandarmerii przy ul. Dworkowej. Kiedy kolumna dotarła skraj skarpy, do schodów prowadzących w kierunku ul. Belwederskiej (obecnie park Morskie Oko), Niemcy odsunęli zasieki z drutu kolczastego sugerując, że pozwalają cywilom przejść na terytorium opanowane przez powstańców. Część grupy zeszła już schodkami, gdy żandarmi niespodziewanie otworzyli ogień z broni maszynowej. Zginęło około 80 osób, w tym wiele dzieci. W trakcie egzekucji szczególną bezwzględnością wyróżnił się służący w żandarmerii volksdeutsch, Edward Malicki (vel Maliszewski). Ponadto w domu przy ul. Bukowińskiej 25 niemieccy lotnicy zamordowali tego dnia od 10 do 13 osób.

4 sierpnia w godzinach porannych dwie kompanie pułku "Baszta" dokonały nieudanego ataku na komendę żandarmerii przy ul. Dworkowej. Po odparciu powstańców Niemcy postanowili zemścić się na ludności cywilnej. Żandarmi z Dworkowej wsparci przez oddział ukraińskich kolaborantów ze szkoły przy ul. Pogodnej szczelnie obstawili niewielką ulicę Olesińską (usytuowaną naprzeciwko komendy żandarmerii). Kilkuset mieszkańców domów nr 5 i 7 spędzono do piwnic po czym wymordowano za pomocą granatów. Ogniem broni maszynowej wybito tych, którzy próbowali wydostać się z zamienionych w masowe groby piwnic. Ofiarą masakry padło od 100 do 200 osób. Była to jedna z największych niemieckich zbrodni popełnionych na Mokotowie w trakcie powstania warszawskiego.

4 sierpnia pacyfikowane były również okolice ul. Rakowieckiej. SS-mani z koszar Stauferkaserne i lotnicy z koszar przy ul. Puławskiej wpadali do domów ciskając granaty i strzelając do osób otwierających im drzwi. Zamordowano wówczas około 30 mieszkańców domów przy ul. Rakowieckiej 5, 9 i 15 oraz co najmniej 20 mieszkańców domów przy ul. Sandomierskiej 19/21 i 23. Dwie ranne kobiety lotnicy pozostawili w podpalonej kamienicy pozwalając by spłonęły żywcem.

Szeregu zbrodni na ludności Mokotowa Niemcy dopuścili się również 5 sierpnia. W godzinach wieczornych SS-mani i policjanci przysłani z siedziby Sicherheitspolizei w alei Szucha otoczyli kwartał domów zamknięty ulicami: Puławską – Skolimowską – Chocimską – bazarem mokotowskim. Zamordowali następnie około 100 mieszkańców domów przy ul. Skolimowskiej 3 i 5 oraz około 80 mieszkańców domu przy ul. Puławskiej 11. Wśród ofiar znalazła się pewna ilość ukrywających się tam powstańców, w tym kapitan Leon Światopełk-Mirski "Leon" – dowódca III Rejonu w Obwodzie V AK "Mokotów". Zwłoki rozstrzelanych oblano benzyną i spalono. Tego samego dnia niemieccy lotnicy zamordowali także od 10 do 15 osób ukrywających się w schronie przy ul. Bukowińskiej 61.

W kolejnych dniach Niemcy nadal podpalali domy i wysiedlali ludność z opanowanych przez siebie kwartałów Mokotowa. Miały także miejsce przypadki rozstrzeliwania cywilów. 11 sierpnia zamordowano około 20 mieszkańców kamienicy przy al. Niepodległości 132/136 (w tym kilka kobiet). 21 sierpnia rozstrzelano około 30 mieszkańców domu przy ul. Madalińskiego 39/43, a następnego dnia – 7 mieszkańców domu przy ul. Kieleckiej 29A. Istnieją także relacje mówiące, że na przełomie sierpnia i września 1944 w rejonie ogródków działkowych przy ul. Rakowieckiej Niemcy rozstrzelali blisko 60 osób cywilnych – w tym kobiety, starców i dzieci.

Zbrodnie na terenie Stauferkaserne

Od 2 sierpnia Niemcy wypędzali polską ludność z opanowanych przez siebie kwartałów Mokotowa. Potężne koszary SS przy ul. Rakowieckiej 4 (tzw. SS-Stauferkaserne) zamieniono wówczas w prowizoryczne więzienie. Przetrzymywani byli tam głównie mężczyźni, których traktowano jako zakładników oraz poddano rygorowi obozowemu. Uwięzionych w Stauferkaserne Polaków przetrzymywano w nieludzkich warunkach i traktowano z ogromną brutalnością. Więźniowie otrzymywali minimalne racje żywnościowe (dla przykładu pierwszej grupie osadzonych dostarczono pożywienie dopiero po upływie jednego dnia). Na porządku dziennym było również ciągłe bicie. Zatrzymanych mężczyzn zmuszano do wyczerpującej pracy, polegającej m.in. na czyszczeniu latryn gołymi rękami, rozbieraniu powstańczych barykad, czyszczeniu czołgów, grzebaniu trupów, pracach ziemnych na terenie koszar (np. kopanie rowów łącznikowych), oczyszczaniu ulic, czy przenoszeniu i ładowaniu na samochody zrabowanych przez Niemców dóbr. Wiele spośród tych prac miało na celu jedynie wyczerpanie i upokorzenie zatrzymanych. Ciężkie warunki życia i pracy doprowadziły wkrótce do zupełnego wycieńczenia więźniów. Wybuchła także wśród nich epidemia dyzenterii.

W okresie powstania Niemcy zamordowali na terenie Stauferkaserne co najmniej 100 Polaków. Między innymi, 3 sierpnia Niemcy na chybił trafił wybrali z grona więźniów około 45 mężczyzn, których następnie wyprowadzili partiami po 15 i rozstrzelali poza terenem koszar. Następnego dnia zamordowano na dziedzińcu koszar około 40 mężczyzn z domu położonego na rogu ulic Narbutta i al. Niepodległości. Na terenie koszar często dochodziło także do pojedynczych egzekucji, dokonywanych zazwyczaj na polecenie SS-Obersturmführera Patza. Znany jest przypadek publicznego powieszenia jednego z osadzonych. Ponadto część uwięzionych w Stauferkaserne mężczyzn wywieziono gestapowskimi "budami" w nieznanym kierunku i ślad po nich zaginął. Prawdopodobnie zostali oni zamordowani w okolicach siedziby Sipo w al. Szucha. Więzione w koszarach kobiety z Mokotowa pędzono natomiast przed czołgami w kierunku powstańczych barykad.

Pacyfikacja Sadyby
Osiedle Sadyba od 19 sierpnia pozostawało obsadzone przez oddziały AK przybyłe z Lasów Chojnowskich. Sadyba znajdując się w polskich rękach osłaniała od południa powstańcze pozycje na Dolnym Mokotowie. Generał Günther Rohr, który dowodził niemieckimi siłami w południowych dzielnicach Warszawy otrzymał od SS-Obergruppenführera Bacha zadanie zdobycia osiedla, co miało stanowić pierwszy krok na drodze do wyparcia powstańców znad brzegów Wisły. Od 29 sierpnia oddziały niemieckie przypuszczały ataki na Sadybę. Osiedle było także intensywnie bombardowane przez niemieckie lotnictwo i ostrzeliwane przez ciężką artylerię. Ostatecznie 2 września atakujące z kilku stron oddziały Rohra zdołały całkowicie opanować Sadybę. Zginęło około 200 obrońców. Tylko nielicznym żołnierzom AK udało się wycofać na teren powstańczego Mokotowa.

Po opanowaniu Sadyby Niemcy wymordowali wszystkich wziętych do niewoli powstańców. Rannych dobijano. Doszło także do szeregu zbrodni na ludności cywilnej. Żołnierze niemieccy – przede wszystkim ci, którzy należeli do spieszonych formacji Luftwaffe – obrzucali granatami piwnice, w których chronili się cywile oraz przeprowadzali doraźne egzekucje, których ofiarami padali nie tylko młodzi mężczyźni podejrzewani o udział w powstaniu, lecz także kobiety, starcy i dzieci. W jednym z masowych grobów odnaleziono później ciała ośmiu nagich kobiet z rękami związanymi drutem kolczastym. Po upadku Sadyby zamordowano m.in. co najmniej 80 mieszkańców ulic: Podhalańskiej, Klarysewskiej i Chochołowskiej. Jedną z ofiar masakry był Józef Grudziński – działacz ruchu ludowego, zastępca przewodniczącego konspiracyjnej Rady Jedności Narodowej. Z zeznań świadków wynika, że niemieccy żołnierze mordujący mieszkańców Sadyby powoływali się na rozkazy dowództwa, mówiące o likwidacji wszystkich mieszkańców Warszawy.

Po ostatecznym opanowaniu Sadyby Niemcy spędzili kilka tysięcy ocalałych cywilów na teren Fortu Piłsudskiego, gdzie przed egzekucją ocaliła ich interwencja niemieckiego generała. Był to prawdopodobnie sam SS-Obergruppenführer Bach, który tego dnia zapisał w swym dzienniku, że jechał "wzdłuż tysięcy jeńców i cywilów" wygłaszając "płomienne przemówienia", w których gwarantował im życie. Niemniej, na terenie fortu zamordowano pewną liczbę młodych mężczyzn podejrzewanych o udział w powstaniu.

Upadek Mokotowa

24 września 1944 oddziały niemieckie przypuściły generalny szturm na Górny Mokotów. Po czterech dniach zaciekłych walk nastąpił upadek dzielnicy. Podobnie jak miało to miejsce w innych dzielnicach Warszawy niemieccy żołnierze mordowali rannych i personel medyczny w zdobytych szpitalach powstańczych. 26 września rozstrzelano lub spalono żywcem kilkunastu rannych leżących w powstańczym szpitalu przy ul. Czeczota 17 oraz na punkcie opatrunkowym przy ul. Czeczota 19. Tego samego dnia w powstańczym szpitalu przy al. Niepodległości 117/119 Niemcy rozstrzelali sanitariuszkę Ewę Matuszewską "Mewę", a nieznaną liczbę rannych wymordowali za pomocą granatów. Po kapitulacji Mokotowa (27 września) SS-Obergruppenführer Bach zagwarantował życie wziętym do niewoli powstańcom. Mimo tego Niemcy zamordowali nieustaloną liczbę ciężko rannych Polaków leżących w piwnicach domów przy ul. Szustra (odcinek między Bałuckiego a Puławską), jak również podpalili szpital powstańczy przy ul. Puławskiej 91, gdzie zginęło ponad 20 osób.

Z opanowanych kwartałów Mokotowa Niemcy brutalnie wypędzali mieszkańców, dokonując przy tym grabieży oraz podpaleń. Na ul. Kazimierzowskiej rozstrzelano ponad 70 mężczyzn podejrzewanych o udział w powstaniu. Po zakończeniu bitwy Niemcy zgromadzili ludność cywilną wraz z rannymi powstańcami na terenie toru wyścigów konnych na Służewcu, a następnie wywieźli do obozu przejściowego w Pruszkowie.

Egzekucja przy ulicy Dworkowej

Po kilku dniach niemieckiego szturmu stało się jasne, że z powodu ogromnej przewagi wroga upadek dzielnicy jest nieunikniony. Wieczorem 26 września na rozkaz dowódcy obrony Mokotowa – podpułkownika Józefa Rokickiego "Daniela" – oddziały 10. Dywizji Piechoty AK rozpoczęły ewakuację kanałami do znajdującego się wciąż w polskich rękach Śródmieścia.

W trakcie chaotycznej ewakuacji część powstańców zabłądziła w kanałach i po kilkudziesięciu godzinach ciężkiego marszu omyłkowo wyszła z włazu na terenie zajętym przez Niemców. Schwytanych powstańców i cywilów doprowadzono pod pobliską komendę żandarmerii przy ul. Dworkowej. Tam Niemcy odseparowali osoby cywilne oraz część sanitariuszek i łączniczek od reszty schwytanych, podczas gdy wziętym do niewoli żołnierzom AK rozkazali uklęknąć przy parkanie na skraju pobliskiej skarpy. Gdy jeden z powstańców nie wytrzymał napięcia i spróbował odebrać broń strażnikowi, policjanci z Schutzpolizei rozstrzelali wszystkich wziętych do niewoli żołnierzy AK. Ofiarą masakry padło około 140 jeńców.

Kolejnych 98 powstańców, ujętych po wyjściu z kanałów, rozstrzelano przy ul. Chocimskiej. Przed egzekucją Niemcy skatowali jeńców, zmuszając ich do klęczenia z rękami podniesionymi do góry i bijąc kolbami karabinowymi.

Odpowiedzialność sprawców
8 sierpnia 1944, a więc jeszcze w trakcie powstania, żołnierze AK przypadkowo wzięli do niewoli SS-Untersturmführera Horsta Steina, który cztery dni wcześniej kierował masakrą na ul. Olesińskiej. Stein stanął przed powstańczym sądem polowym, który skazał go na karę śmierci. Wyrok wykonano.

W 1954 Sąd Wojewódzki dla m. st. Warszawy skazał na karę dożywotniego więzienia SS-Brigadeführera Paula Ottona Geibla, sprawującego formalne dowództwo nad oddziałami SS i policji, które w pierwszych dniach sierpnia 1944 dopuściły się szeregu zbrodni na Mokotowie. 12 października 1966 Geibel popełnił samobójstwo w więzieniu mokotowskim. Dr Ludwig Hahn – komendant SD i policji bezpieczeństwa  w Warszawie, kierujący wraz Geiblem obroną "dzielnicy policyjnej" – przez wiele lat mieszkał w Hamburgu pod swoim prawdziwym nazwiskiem. Przed sądem stanął dopiero w 1972 i po trwającym rok procesie skazany został na karę 12 lat pozbawienia wolności. W procesie rewizyjnym hamburski sąd przysięgłych podwyższył karę na dożywotnie pozbawienie wolności (1975). Hahn wyszedł jednak na wolność w 1983 i zmarł trzy lata później.

W 1980 sąd w Kolonii uznał SS-Obersturmführera Martina Patza, dowódcę 3. zapasowego batalionu grenadierów pancernych SS, winnym wymordowania 600 więźniów więzienia mokotowskiego oraz skazał go na 9 lat więzienia. Sądzony w tym samym procesie Karl Misling otrzymał wyrok 4 lat więzienia.

Any insurance policy is a promise to pay claims based on the rules of the contract being followed. Insurance companies are not in the business to pay claims out of altruistic motives—they pay them because they must, as they are bound by the contract.
Which brings us to the matter of claims. The rules of a trade credit insurance policy vary by insurance company and by policy type.
For example, many insurers require you to report overdue receivables on a monthly or quarterly basis, while others have no past-due reporting requirements. When an account must be reported as past due also varies. Even for insurers that require past-due reporting, the amount and number of days past due is negotiable, depending on your unique needs.
Fundamentally, the fewer rules that one must follow is a good thing for all credit insurance policyholders. For a specialty broker, this is a guiding premise—to maximize your ability to file claims, and to minimize the number of hoops through which you must jump to get your money in the event of a loss. Furthermore, a specialty broker is ethically bound to this standard.
For agents of insurance companies, they are beholden to the insurer and responsible for the insurer's bottom line, not yours.


Companies interested in participating in the Second Offshore Licensing Round are invited to form consortia composed of at least three companies each and submit their Applications on the open blocks (Blocks 1, 2, 5, 8 and 10) before the 31st of January 2020.
The first round of Lebanon's licensing process saw blocks 4 and 9 awarded to a consortium of companies – French Total, Italian Eni and Russian Novatek.
Cabinet Thursday approved the second licensing round, whose purpose was twofold: to increase exploration in Lebanese waters and boost competition among offering companies.


Doris Salcedo is a Columbian artist whose understated sculptures and installations embody the silenced lives of the marginalized, from individual victims of violence to the disempowered of the Third World. Salcedo has gained notoriety for her powerful pieces that provoke viewers to understand both the victim and the perpetrator, with her work 'Shibboleth' featured to great acclaim in the Turbine Hall of Tate Modern in 2007. Her art as a whole explores ideas of the immigrant, community, and the experience of racial hatred.
With the pitch and timbre of an accomplished storyteller, Carrie Mae Weems uses colloquial forms – jokes, songs, rebukes – in photographic series that scrutinize subjectivity and expose pernicious stereotypes. Her work focuses on the experience of African-Americans in matters gender, race, sexuality, politics, and personal identity, while injecting her personal experiences to help articulate broader truths.
William Kentridge, having witnessed one of the Twentieth Century's most contentious struggles, explores the social injustices of his homeland, South Africa, through film, drawing, sculpture and performance. He transmutes sobering political events into powerful poetic allegories, most notably through his animated films.
Art 21: Art in the 21st Century is an award-winning series of 24 programmes in which 100 contemporary artists explain their creations, their creative processes, and their perceptions of art. Available for the first time on DVD in the UK, Art21 covers a wide range of artists and contemporary visual art.

|NQ==MA==ZA==YQ==eQ==| -- | NQ==MA== ZA==YQ==eQ== |


Married to the mob is a term of endearment here – capturing a part of the motivation behind the remarkable contributions of David Schleich, PhD to the naturopathic medical profession's "mother ship" and to powering growth for the naturopathic profession in North America.
Schleich has presently served 11 years as president and CEO of what was, when he started, the National College of Naturopathic Medicine (NCNM). NCNM is legitimately the field's mother ship: the school educated the founders of each the profession's 7 other North American colleges. In his term, Schleich led NCNM to become the multidisciplinary, clinically expansive and research-engaged National University of Natural Medicine (NUNM). The university has announced that on July 1, 2019, Schleich will retire.
His work for the naturopathic profession did not begin at the Portland, Oregon-based NUNM. Schleich previously served from 1996-2003 as president and CEO of the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine (CCNM). When he arrive, CCNM – a niche school at the periphery of higher education regulation – was struggling with 78 students, negligible assets, and a negative endowment.
When he left 8 years later, enrollment was at 544, annual patient visits were pumped up from 1,240 to 9,885, and operating budgets from $989,000 to $10,340,000 annually. Campus assets jumped to an $18-million valuation after he led the acquisition of CCNM's first permanent campus. CCNM was the first Canadian naturopathic college to gain accreditation. The profession in Canada moved beyond survival mode. Schleich and his team provided the foundation for what is now a $40-million academic operation with a significant research department and nationally renown integrative oncology clinical program.
Programs Increased NUNM program offerings from two post-graduate degrees to a total of 11, including three undergraduate degrees.
Revenues Increased annual revenues from $14,900,877 to $22,440,853.
Research Research grants at NUNM's Helfgott Research Institute include a total of $3,092,898 in National Institutes of Health grants since 2015, tops among natural medicine universities and colleges.
Clinical/Medical Homes Remarkably, NUNM's array of clinical services includes two state-credentialed Tier 4 Patient-Centered Primary Care Home clinics and eight additional community clinics through offering some 30,000 patient visits per year.
Physical Plant In 2011, the City of Portland approved NUNM's 2012-2022 Master Plan, a five-acre campus with five facilities and other properties.
External Financial Support In Schleich's era, NUNM has seen an infusion of $16-million in cash and in-kind contributions.
This may sound mundane. But in those still quite dark days for his field, each successful engagement with the powers that be was a historic breakthrough for the public's option to have a doctor of natural medicine.
Part of what Schleich found through his work at CCNM was a spouse. He met naturopathic physician Sussanna Czeranko, ND in 1997. They married in 2006, just before Schleich reentered full-time work with the naturopathic profession at NCNM. In Czerenko, Schleich found a partner who would distinguish herself in the profession for her work to re-awaken a connection to the profession's roots. As Rare Books curator at NUNM, Czeranko has finished 11 books of a 12-volume series based upon the journals published early in the 20th century by the field's founder, Benedict Lust. Ten of the books have been published, including Origins of Naturopathic Medicine, Philosophy of Naturopathic Medicine, Dietetics of Naturopathic Medicine, and Principles of Naturopathic Medicine. In his marriage to Czeranko, Schleich has been anchored to the profession and its roots, 24-7. Their son, Julah, graduated from NCNM in 2015.
Which brings us back to "married to the mob" notion. Schleich was the 2015 awardee as Champion of Naturopathic Medicine from the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians. He is one of several in recent years who share this trait. The award goes to a non-naturopathic doctor deemed to have had significant impact on the naturopathic profession. An extremely effective association director. A publisher of a key monthly. Another a writer and organizer – in this case, me! A kind of osmotic activity happens through that proximity, with the principles and passions of and for the field passing the external-soul barriers, uptaken and infusing one's work. The high hopes and significant challenges for the field become those of and for the self. Such alchemy forged and tempered Schleich's powerful contributions.
Some of the growth is certainly era-related. Schleich's time with each school has been during significant growth across naturopathic programs and a general uptake in the natural health professions for which NUNM and CCNM educate. The past two years have seen declining enrollments. Asked how it felt to be exiting at the time of what may be a difficult trend, Schleich noted that the demographics from Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) "alerted the profession to this trough at the beginning of this decade." There had been decreases in the rate of growth from 2002-2012 that stimulated NUNM to add to its mix of programs and keep the overall enrollment more robust. He notes that stand alone programs are expected to be hurting until 2021 when numbers of students moving from high school to university and from university to post graduate programs are expected to rise again.
I had spoken with Schleich about his future not long before the announcement. He and Czeranko are both Canadians. She, in particular, has yearned to return. They have land where Czeranko has been cultivating dreams and built a clinic and retreat center on the shores of a lake known for its medicinal waters. Anyone who has known Schleich will know that he'll not likely be settling down with Netflix as his constant companion anytime soon. He ticked off an exhausting list of projects, writing and entrepreneurial, that have been begging for years, to which he is excited to turn. Now he adds another area of likely engagement: "I am not exiting work with the profession actually, just changing gears. There are many places to do this work – fundraising, lobbying, writing, and speaking." The marriage in all its dimensions will apparently continue.

payton releases debut EP "insomnia", along with the music video for his escapist track "way out"; Headlining The Echo in Los Angeles on August 2nd to celebrate release of EP
Posted on August 2, 2022 by Emily May
Rising singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist payton has released his debut EP insomnia to celebrate his birthday with fans along with the music video for escapist track "way out." Following the release of love-sick anthem "blame" and the slow-burning single/video for "all wrong," the 6-track collection ushers in a new era for payton sonically, building upon his catalog of confessional yet hook-heavy songcraft that's already won him enormous attention online (including 80 million streams, over 15 million TikTok fans, and billions of views and impressions to date). Increasingly recognized as a disruptive force on the alternative scene, payton is now set to deliver a collection that reveals the full extent of his artistry, reinforcing his rare gift for conveying complex feelings in immediately catchy pop songs. In bringing his new music to life, payton worked solely with producer Donny Bravo and dreamed up a more understated, R&B-infused sound than he's ever attempted before. On August 2nd, payton will be celebrating the release of insomnia with a headlining performance at The Echo in Los Angeles at 7PM. Find tickets HERE.
Named an "Artist You Need To Hear" by Alt Press, when it comes to making music with a massive impact, less is more for 18-year-old viral hitmaker. Since the arrival of his soul-baring debut single "Love Letter"—an April 2020 release that racked up more than 1.5 million Spotify streams in just a week—the Los Angeles-based artist has shown his supreme talent for drawing immense emotion from the most minimal of elements: fearlessly honest lyrics, unpredictable rhythms, and his rare gift for conveying complex feelings in immediately catchy pop songs. With his new music, payton looks forward to strengthening his connection with the countless fans who have come to rely on his songs for comfort and catharsis.
"When I was on tour, I had a lot of people coming up to me and telling me that my music had saved them when they were going through tough situations in their lives," payton says. "In my own life, I'm not really the type to be super-honest with the people around me if I'm having problems; I usually just deal with everything by putting it into a song. It means a lot to me that my music could end up helping people and making them feel better at those moments when they feel like no one understands them."
Born Payton Moormeier in Georgia and raised in North Carolina, payton took up guitar at the age of nine and instantly showed a natural talent for the instrument. After getting his start posting covers on social media, he moved on to writing and self-recording his own material, mining inspiration from the free-flowing introspection of artists like Juice WRLD. At first, payton hesitated to share his original output with the world. "I had songs on my phone that I'd play for my closest friends, but the idea of letting anyone else hear them was so nerve-wracking," he says. But with the release of "Love Letter"—an intensely vulnerable track about being ghosted by a former girlfriend—those anxieties quickly dissolved." Since his debut, payton has released a string of buzzworthy singles that ooze emotion and vulnerability, inspired by challenging situations that he has allowed to transcend through his music. Creating songs that allows listeners to feel different emotions is what payton loves the most about making music and with each release, he offers his truth and inner-most thoughts through the best way he knows how: music.

Raining E-Blows on Egos
THEY pour into your e-mail in-box, as explicit as they are relentless, with subject lines too shameful to share with colleagues. Enlarge your penis! Shrink your waistline! Enhance your sex life! Delete, delete, delete.
But they reappear, as relentless as they are explicit, with pop-up pictures embarrassing for the boss to see. Enlarge your penis! Shrink your waistline! Enhance your sex life! All before lunch.
The spewing of spam over the digital transom has long been derided as an annoyance and provoked concerns about the insecurity of computer networks. But now some e-mailers and experts on psychology and technology worry that it is also having a more pernicious effect: insecurity for the recipient.
With worldwide volumes having doubled in the past year, and ever-more sophisticated spammers singling out computer users with particular interests or problems, it can serve as a constant reminder of what is lacking for those with fragile egos — whether a sinuous body or an eight-cylinder sex drive.
"How do they know I need to (fill in the blank)?" the recipient wonders.
Delete, delete, delete.
"It can affect your emotions and your level of stress," said Jeffrey T. Parsons, a psychology professor at Hunter College, who has conducted research on sexuality and the Internet. "Once you get in a spam loop, you can get bombarded with these things four or five times a day, and that can definitely trigger insecurities and exacerbate ones that already exist."
Pam Fitzgerald, managing partner of a marketing company in Virginia who struggles with her weight, bristles at the diet-plan spam, wondering "who knows how much I weigh." And her heart aches for one of her young employees, the only one in the small firm not to have finished college, who seems to be a magnet for spam pushing Johnny-come-lately bachelor's degree programs. "It's rubbing him raw day in and day out," she said. Worsening the psychic toll is the increasingly focused tailoring of spam of all stripes.
Legitimate retailers buy contact lists of e-mail addresses, while underground computer hacks trade — or steal — them. Spammers often steal e-mail addresses from topic-oriented and corporate Web sites with scores of registered users, and also corral highjacked networks of personal computers called botnets to glean specific information from other computers' hard drives, like e-mail address books.
So junk e-mail arrives looking as if it came from a personal friend, or it will seem sympathetic to the receiver's lifestyle, with advertisements for Christian mortgages popping up in the in-boxes of computer users active in Christian organizations.
Howard Steinberg, a diabetic and the head of a Westport, Conn., company specializing in diabetes education, is a lightning rod for diabetes-related spam — most of it offering quack remedies for a disease he considers deadly serious.
"They are absolutely using social engineering techniques," said Daniel Druker, executive vice president for marketing at Postini, a communications company in San Carlos, Calif., that provides anti-spam services and processes about 1 billion e-mail messages a day. "Anything they can do to break down your natural resistance."
Though 99 percent of spam is still sent randomly, Mr. Druker said that tailored spam is increasing and that we will only see more of it. "I would predict that in 2007, the bad guys will be targeting their attacks even more."
All of which only enhances a computer user's fear that somehow he keeps getting a certain solicitation for penis-enlargement because someone, somewhere, thinks he is lacking.
"Whether it's overweight or sexual topics, for those who have challenges there can be low self-esteem," said Joshua Fogel, an assistant professor of behavioral sciences at Brooklyn College. "There's a lot of psychological baggage with being overweight. Likewise for a man who is having trouble sexually. The spam reminds them of their vulnerabilities and will make them feel even more inadequate."
Though e-mail ads for weight-loss and sexual performance products have been around for years, they are still among the most common forms of spam. And if you are struggling with a personal issue and happen to be easily suggestible, such spam can be uncomfortably personal.
"It feels like a real invasion of privacy," said Ms. Fitzgerald, the Virginia marketing executive wary of weight-loss spam. "You do react emotionally to this stuff, there's no doubt about it."
What are sensitive types to do? Professor Parsons recommends addressing the root of the problem. "Seek professional help for the underlying issue," he said, so that spam doesn't become "a trigger for more emotional distress." People with serious disorders, like sex addicts, should get a very strong filter that not only blocks access to pornographic Web sites, but filters out pornographic spam.
Unlike the sources of glossy catalogs and other pieces of bulk mail that pile up on kitchen tables, spam's origins are often illicit, the handiwork of offshore operators. Even for those who are at peace with their physique, having unseemly spam thrust into their face can be embarrassing, evoking a tawdry netherworld they would rather not know about.
"Some of the penis enlargement ones will have images, which gets you," said Carolyn Sevos, president of IntraCommunities, a technology company in Manhattan, referring to the thumbprint-size pictures that appear at the bottom of her screen as she scrolls through e-mail even without opening it.
"You're sifting through your e-mail — click, click, click — and then you'll see that and it makes you sit up in your seat," Ms. Sevos said.
Betty Maul, who owns a print and advertising company in Cherry Hill, N.J., said more than 115 junk e-mail messages had poured into her in-box one recent day by 5:15 p.m. There were cures for obesity and impotence, cheap pills from Canada, men in hot pants, stock tips, gambling opportunities and the cryptically worded "love enhancements."
Absent, at least for the moment, was one of Ms. Maul's favorites: a come-on for breast enlargements. "I'm already a very well-endowed woman, so that one frightens me," she said. "That's become a joke in our office. Everybody howls."

the DOT experience continues... It gives you an unexpected kind of FREEDOM creating lines with dots. This time i doubled the resolution by using 2x2 circles. Finally your eye can help making curves of any size look complete and entirely smooth! Oh my god... I see more possibilities now than ever before!! That technique of "dotting", as i call it, will make my brain bust, i guess. :P May the force be with me!

i felt the urgent need to share this!
i know it's not finished.
in fact, numerals from 6-9 are missing, but i promise this will grow a little bit more in glyph amount.
Again you're driving it to the next level!
My only suggestion: The "M, W, w" are a bit too narrow on the left.
Fantastic. I'm stoked on that lower case 'y'. Keep building it out.
i didn't like most of the dotted fonts so far but this one plays in a league of its own. wonderfully crafted. the proportions all perfectly ballanced. you really should think about recreating this one in a "real" vector based program. the forms got so much potential.
Absolutely, totally unbelievably, good looking.
This is verry, verry fine. Nice work!
thanks for your kind words, everyone.
and you did it again. 12!
it's really satisfying to read all this after putting soooooooo much effort in this one.
This is totally UNDER FONTSTRUCTION at the moment, so if you want the real DOSE, try to be patient for let's say 1-2 days!
It's time well spent and it really shows in the result.
I keep coming back just to look at the letters...they're so beautiful.
je suis contente, de t'avoir pu inspirer pour les petits point! Continues ainsi!
I think this is your best font yet. How can it be flashy and restrained at the same time? I don't know, but it is.
Ok. I think it's done!
four leaf clover = "#"
single notes = "(" and ")"
double notes = "[" and "]"
The treble clef? Are you kidding me? Curvilcious wow, wow, wow.
Silky smooth clef! The extended chars look great as well.
Damn, you just keep taking to another level.
*whistles* That's a good looking font!
i know i'm late, but this is SO beautiful!
I can't believe it's been over a month since I was going to comment. First of all, I think this is absolutely brilliant. Very clean. Love your sample too.
1. I'm surprised no one has mentioned it yet, but the A looks like it needs to be flipped, the same way as the V and W were transposed. In order to maintain consistency, the right side of the A would need the thicker stem to match the diagonal strokes of the V and W.
2. I know this is an experimentation with 2x2 circles and this next comment does not really help you out now since it comes after the fact, but here goes. Using quarter circle bricks do open up more possibilities for brick placement. But if you start with a filter setting of 2:2, then you can achieve the same thing with only one full circle brick. Since everything becomes double scale, the single circle brick would automatically cover a 2x2 grid space. In terms of file efficiency, it cuts down the number of bricks used by 75%, which eases the save capacity for larger fontsructions. For maximum dot placement, you can try using the four quarter circles in 2:2 scale, which creates circles that cover a 4x4 grid area.
After all i'm lucky this is downloadable. I'll keep that scaling in mind if i'm starting my next dot font.
I think that will change soon.
it sounds like the discussion about flipping, moving, rotating of selected bricks, will bring some interesting changes.
I'm totally looking forward to that!
I don't know...I think the A looks ok as it is.
I thought about that, but the new "A" just seems more familiar. I left a copy of the old one on "§".
Perfect font! What about a filled version?
J'aimerais tellement être capable de faire d'aussi belles choses, plutôt que de m'obstiner à continuer toujours la même (Anguleux). Une police identique avec des lettres pleines serait parfaite !
2) Open the .zip folder and Copy the .ttf file to the Desktop.

Er... I meant ____________ ^ here.


Ok .......we are inundated with wall to wall talk about the defict, online on tv , every where and interestingly enough, most of it is coming from the left! Thats right, we now have a huge percentage of Neo-deficit Hawks..........so it seems. But those of us who genuinely have been concerned about the deficit know that these neo-deficit hawks really aren't concerned about the deficit, what they are concerned about, is the fact that obama has not been able to raise taxes.....and to them, that is equivalent to leaving billions of dollars on the table that they should be taking to give to others. How can anyone say they are concerned about the deficit yet support trillions of dollars in deficit spending? They cant, what these neo-deficit hawks are really about is redistribution! Plain and simple!
Um, the right has been backing hundreds of billions of dollars in tax cut extensions, with no spending cuts to correspond. Both parties are screwing up. It is the spending, not tax cuts or tax increases thats going to help the economy.
It's almost surreal listening to these congress creatures talk around the spending that got us here in the first place.
If only they were as passionate and creative about staying within a budget as they were about finding ways to grab more money from us.
It is the spending, not tax cuts or tax increases thats going to help the economy.
We agree on this.......the difference is you want the government to TAKE money from who they decide doesn't deserve it and spend it the way a bunch of rich corrupt out of touch bureaucrat, politicians think it should be spent. I believe we let people keep as much of THEIR money as possible and let them spend it how they see fit.
Nope, I like tax cuts, I just want them accompanied by a spending cut to offset the loss of revenue.
Republicans are big on tax cuts, but they never cut any programs. They always say they are going to cut things, most of which I disagree with, but then they never do.
Thats because the things they attack, social security, medicare, welfare, etc are supported by 70% of the population or higher (70% of TEA party members support SSI and medicare in its current form).
So its no better than democrats increasing spending and not increasing taxes.
I want pay as you go. Neither party wants that. There are plenty of things to cut that won't effect the poorest Americans, and won't effect the bottom line of people that can't stand it.
This really encapsolates this fiscal fraudelance of the modern day GOP. They cater to unsophsticated people who can't intellectually comprehend more syllables than "tax cuts." They refuse to say how we will make meaningful cuts in spending to coincide; that's because over 70% of our spending revolves around Republican money-makers: military spending and social security.
The Republican "solution" is to feed people who don't know any better irrelevant cliche's about food stamps and entitlements and ear marks, all of which make up virtually nothing relative to the large scale.
OK, wise guys, give us some specifics of where you want to cut. Then try to get Congress to vote for it. Even the smallest items with little benefit to the public are hard to cut. The larger ones are almost impossible. Most voters would support a 10% cut in Congressional pay but Congress certainly won't go for that and it is a minuscule part of the budget anywawy.
Sounds like someone didn't get his Obama money.
Blame it all on the other side.

Report: Zinedine Zidane gives Chelsea £200m ultimatum
Zinedine Zidane has reportedly laid out his terms after informing Chelsea that he is interested in becoming their next manager.
The former Real Madrid boss, who won three Champions League titles in three years at the Bernabeu, has been strongly touted as a possible successor for under-fire boss Maurizio Sarri.
Chelsea are rumoured to be weighing up whether to part company with Sarri after less than a year at the helm following an underwhelming run of results and concerns over the playing style.
The Sun reports that Zidane is keen to discuss the job as he feels he can turn the club into contenders once again, but he will only do it on his own terms.
It is claimed that the Frenchman has asked for a £200m transfer kitty to strengthen the squad, and he wants a major say in who joins and leaves.
Zidane also wants Eden Hazard to stay in place, despite the Belgian winger angling for a move to Madrid.
A big week for Sarri starts with Monday's FA Cup fifth-round tie against Manchester United and culminates in the EFL Cup final against Manchester City.

Talk did you I mean the years you took writing this book. Did you delight in inertly out over the scientific neighbors. I mean i can just imagine spending as where you weren't necessarily writing but you were going on google scholar and look you know looking at all. The weight is kinda stuff. Scott you know me. Well i think i i imagine you have done the same thing too. I have a sneaking feeling. Yeah i totally geek. Out about the journals. And that's why this book thome took me so many years because it does cover a lot of different disciplines. A lot of different strands of research. And yeah oh. I totally geek out about the research. And what's exciting is that there's more of this research coming out. Every day on embodied cognition on situated cognition on socially distributed cognition. I really feel like were. Maybe at the at a turning point where you know the i think the old brain bound conception of thinking is just not adequate anymore and we're realizing that there's so there's so much more to what goes on when we when we think and so to me the the research is pointing really exciting. New directions really. Oh well along those lines what are you. What some recent stuff that. You're most excited about excited about Had its shoes. Oh gosh and what. We haven't really talked much about gesture. I find gesture really fascinating. Because i tend to be someone who talks with her hands a lot and i love the idea for example that often are most advanced or most cutting edge yard our newest ideas that we can't quite put words to yet show up in our hands. I you know there's in some movement of our hands. We managed to capture some element of what we're trying to express verbally. And then we can read off that self-generated information you know. We can read off our own hands that can inform our sort of emerging verbal explanation for Of what we're what we're trying to get at. And so i love the idea of Naturally encouraging students and others to to move their hands but also creating occasions where gestures or more likely to happen like people are more likely to jester when they're asked to give an impromptu explanation for something in front of an audience because to speak in an impromptu way like that is really cognitively taxing so we tend to off load some of that burden onto our hands. We also gesture more when there's something to gesture at you know some kind of artifact or model or map or diagram and so and you know the research suggested the more we gesture as we're trying to work something out in our heads the the the greater our understanding the more accurate our memory so we actually want to be getting people to gesture as much as possible. I find that really fascinating. It is fascinating it's also can be used as a manipulation tool for marketers. Who don't really want you to pay that much attention to the words. They're saying distract found that. Just because like i. I grew up like a disabilities so i became hyper. Hyper tune into non verbal communication. And yes and i actually cringe. When i watched some of these people you know like like motivational gurus and people you know like some some of them on youtube five things that will help you breen and and they're likely overdo it with a hand motions but like i actually listen to the words. They're saying about that. So scott i i you know i do. I write in the book about how entrepreneurs who are making a pitch for their their proposed venture when they employ the skilled use of gesture. They j- they attract more funding. Now they maybe they're they. That goes for the charlatans as well as the earnest well meaning entrepreneurs but I tend to think of gesture as another channel of communication and so that channel could be used could be as forgot our allies. Plus absolutely i mean it can be used like i said we used to manipulate. I mean that can be good. Are you wanna to convince certain foods. Mercy's you know. Maybe that are worthy manipulate. But um oh boy what what other topic. What have i missed. What have i missed. I feel like we covered. We covered a lot thinking bodies surround. Now there's something. I think is super coal by your book the way the we over the way we can wilder ideas nope and things. I've long argued in the field of intelligence that we focus too much on working memory capacities the corner aspect of human intelligence and that you can get a lot more intelligence out of people especially diverse people who issues By allowing them to take these things by unwielding reminds me that i think it's just tells nicely with a lot of that is interesting scott. I mean i've been arguing since the book came out. Made the point on a bunch of podcasts. That people who who learn differently or think differently are often kind of leading the way in terms of extending the mind because because their brains don't work the same as as other people's because they're narrow narrow narrow atypical. Is that how you say it north. They diversion they have had to develop ways of thinking outside the brain and using skillfully using resources You know and not and not thinking in the conventional way but But developing often very ingenious solutions that involves thinking outside the brain so and that there's a lot we have to learn from people who who've encountered challenges in conventional classrooms and workplaces. You know because they've been forced by necessity to come up with really ingenious ways of thinking outside the brain and cognitive offloading as you mentioned is is one of those ways just getting. I think all of us can benefit from getting that stuff out of our head onto physical space where we can manipulate ideas. As if they were objects or navigate through them as if they were a physical three dimensional landscape. Because those are the things we evolved to do me do so effortlessly and easily and to keep it all in our heads again doesn't doesn't do. Justice doesn't draw on all this the capabilities and resources that we have as human beings. What's the benefit of lake copying experts. Yeah well in that chapter on experts. I talk about and i'm sure i know you know this research. About how by virtue of being experts. You know experts. Find it very difficult to articulate for a novice. Exactly how they do what they do. Because it's become automated for them. It's become second nature in a way that they're not even that's not even accessible to them anymore and yet our systems of education our systems of workplace training they rely on experts teaching novices. So we really need to think harder. I think about how experts can become more legible examples. for novices so that they can become more easily copied. Because you know that's another bias in our culture that i'd like to push back against this idea that innovation and originality is always better than emulation an imitation because You know imitation used to be at the core of of education for centuries that was it was understood that to master a body of knowledge or a particular skill you emulated the people the masters the people who did it the best and you learn how to do it sort of from the inside that way and only then. Could you add your own twist. There was famous professor of composition rhetoric. Who liked to say imitate that. You may be different. But you. I have to master the fundamentals and an imitation can be the most efficient and effective way of doing that. So i'd love to see the stigma that that attach to imitation currently in our society to love for that to fade away. Yeah well that. And the not like journal.

Norm Macdonald Of 'SNL' Dies At 61

Comedian and former Saturday Night Live cast member Norm Macdonald, a mainstay on the veteran NBC late night sketch comedy series from 1993 to 1998, died Tuesday after a private nine-year battle with cancer.
"He was most proud of his comedy," Lori Jo Hoekstram, Macdonald's friend and producing partner, said to Deadline. "He never wanted the diagnosis to affect the way the audience or any of his loved ones saw him. Norm was a pure comic. He once wrote that 'a joke should catch someone by surprise, it should never pander.' He certainly never pandered. Norm will be missed terribly."
Born October 17, 1959 in Quebec City, Canada, Macdonald's first performances in comedy were at stand-up clubs in Ottawa, regularly appearing on amateur nights in the mid-1980s. In 1990, he competed on Star Search. Two years later, he was hired as a writer for ABC sitcom Roseanne before quitting to join Saturday Night Live.
Known for his impressions of personalities like Burt Reynolds, Larry King, David Letterman, Quentin Tarantino and politician Bob Dole, among others, Macdonald was upgraded to the "Weekend Update" segment in SNL's 20th season.
In 1998, Don Ohlmeyer, then president of NBC's West Coast division, had Macdonald removed as the "Weekend Update" anchor, blaming his performance for a decline in the ratings. Macdonald was replaced by Colin Quinn.

Soon after exiting SNL, Macdonald co-wrote and starred in the "revenge comedy" Dirty Work. He also voiced the character of Lucky the Dog in the Eddie Murphy adaptation of Dr. Doolittle (and its two sequels). And he headlined his first sitcom, The Norm Show (later shortened to Norm), opposite Laurie Metcalf on ABC effective in March 1999. It ran for three seasons.
In 2003, Macdonald has a 13-episode run on Fox sitcom A Minute With Stan Hooper. He also appeared in Canadian sketch comedy Sunnyside in 2015 and had a recurring role on ABC comedy The Middle. Additionally, Macdonald lent his voice to Nickelodeon's Fairly Oddparents, Skylanders Academy, The Orville and Mike Tyson Mysteries. And he made numerous appearances on various late-night shows, particularly Late Night With David Letterman and Conan.

Macdonald also released three stand-up comedy albums: Ridiculous (1996), Me Doing Standup (2011) and Hitler's Dog, Gossip & Trickery (2017). And he published his semi-fictional memoir Based on a True Story in 2016.
Macdonald is survived by his son, Dylan.

Girl Meets World Star Rowan Blanchard Opens Up to Fans: "I Identify as Queer"
Rowan said she was surprised by the backlash her comments received.
Actress and Girl Meets World star Rowan Blanchard opened up to fans on her Twitter about her sexuality, telling them that while she's found herself mostly attracted to boys, she identifies as queer and refuses to be labeled.
Aye! ♡♡♡ pic.twitter.com/NXOZv5Jlzy
— Rowan Blanchard (@RowanBlanchard) January 16, 2016
"In my life – only ever liked boys," she wrote in a tweet draft she screencapped. "However I personally don't wanna label myself as straight, gay or whateva so I am not gonna give myself labels to stick with – just existing."
According to the Parents and Friends of Lesbians and Gays, queer is an umbrella term:
It includes anyone who a) wants to identify as queer and b) who feels somehow outside of the societal norms in regards to gender or sexuality. This, therefore, could include the person who highly values queer theory concepts and would rather not identify with any particular label, the gender fluid bisexual, the gender fluid heterosexual, the questioning LGBT person, and the person who just doesn't feel like they quite fit in to societal norms and wants to bond with a community over that.
It is a fluid label as opposed to a solid label, one that only requires us to acknowledge that we're different without specifying how or in what context. It is also a concise word that people may use if they do not feel like shifting their language along with their ever-evolving gender, politics and/or sexuality. It may also be an easier and more concise identity for some people to use if and when people ask, because they do.
When asked by a follower if she was open to liking another gender, Rowan said she was.
@phippstea yes open to liking any gender in future is why I identify as queer
"Yes open to liking any gender in future is why I identify as queer," she wrote.
She also expressed surprise at some of the negative responses she received for her initial tweets.
@lovingrowboat like I thought I was being brave and was proud of myself and then everyone attacks me... Cool
No one will ever understand why some people on Twitter feel compelled to shit on those who are just trying to talk openly and honestly about themselves. The good news is, the majority of tweets sent to her were extremely supportive and appreciative of her statements.
Rowan has emerged as a strong and vital role model for young people in the past year, thanks to a series of thought-provoking essays and posts. Time magazine recently named her one of the Most Influential Teens of 2015. Her openness and willingness to discuss such a personal topic and open up a dialogue about it is important for young teens and fans, many of whom struggle with the same issues of identity and sexuality.
