Q: How to alternate speed using an array of integers for javax swing timer I am attempting to simulate rain falling using fixed line lengths with randomly generated x coordinates. I have got the random x coordinates working but I want lines to have different falling speeds as well once they are repainted onto the window. I am using the javax swing timer and the java Random to generate integers to pass into my "speed" array as indexes. The speed however does not change. It remains the same and is way too fast.
public class rain extends JPanel implements ActionListener {
int i = 0;
int[] speed = {5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50};
double[] x = {10, 202, 330, 140, 250, 160, 470, 180, 290, 510};
double y1 = 10, y2 = 20;
double down = 1;
Random random = new Random();
//Timer t = new Timer(speed[i], this);

public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
        super.paintComponent(g);
        Graphics2D l = (Graphics2D) g;
        Line2D line = new Line2D.Double(x[i], y1, x[i], y2);
        l.setColor(Color.blue);
        l.draw(line);
        Timer t = new Timer(speed[i], this);
        t.start();
}

public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
        if (y2 < 380) {
            y1 += down;
            y2 += down;
        }else{
            y1 = 10;
            y2 = 20;
            i = random.nextInt(10);

        }
    repaint();

}

A: You start a new Timer each time your panel is repainted, and all the previous ones are still running. You should change your algorithm to use a unique timer, and compute the new y based on the previous one and on the current speed.
For example, the time would repaint every 40 milliseconds. If the speed is N, the new y would be the previous one + (N * down)


Desc: A live version, but excellent.

did i ever say i like your name because it reminds me of vikings?
Someday, we'll cruise down the coast of Florida in a Drekkar.
I'll let you lead the raiding party.
you are adorable and i love you! be my best friend!

Uper Energy Wins Best Solar Operations and Maintenance Award of the Year at Global Solar + Energy Storage Congress & Expo in South Korea
SHANGHAI, July 3, 2019 /PRNewswire/ — Uper Energy (UPER), a global renewable energy asset manager, won the annual award for best solar operations and maintenance at the 5th Annual Global Solar + Energy Storage Congress & Expo 2019 in South Korea. The event, held on June 24-25 in Seoul, South Korea, is one of the most influential gathering of leaders in the field of solar energy storage, attracting more than 80 speakers from some 50 countries in addition to more than 1,000 attendees.
On the evening of June 24, the Annual Solar + Energy Storage Awards Reception 2019 was held to honor key individuals and companies who promoted the development of the industry in 2018. UPER, known for its advanced products and quality services, won the annual award for best solar operations and maintenance. The award is not only a commendation for the success of the efforts the company has made in the operations and maintenance (O&M) of solar power stations, but also a recognition for the company's best-in-quality services and products.
At the roundtable meeting on June 25, guests engaged in a heated discussion on the topic of "Rational Use of O&M Solutions to Maximize the Asset Management and Operation Status of Solar Projects". Zhang Chengfei, Director of Overseas Market Development at UPER, shared his own views and suggestions on the topic.
According to Zhang, the renewable-energy power station is a fixed asset that can generate a stable revenue for investors who seek to maximize the revenue that a power station can deliver. It stands to reason that, in addition to construction, the stable operation of a power station in the later stages is critically important. However, due to the large amount involved in the initial investment, most investors and owners attach more importance to the construction phase, which only accounts for 2% of the life cycle of a power plant, and neglect the later operations and maintenance, some 98% of the life cycle.
Zhang suggested that for energy investors, it is not only necessary to seek proper EPC partners to build best-in-quality power stations, but also to pay attention to the performance of the power station during its operation. They can encourage third-party operation and maintenance organizations to become involved with the operation of the site at an earlier stage, as the sooner they enter the site, the better they can put forward reasonable suggestions and avoid possible risks.
In its role as a renewable energy asset manager, UPER can supply an overall evaluation service of the power station for investors and owners starting from the beginning of the construction phase, to identify defects and formulate a reasonable operations and maintenance plan. UniCare, an asset management platform for renewable energy power stations independently developed by the company, combines Internet and digital information technologies alongside expertise in the world of PV, to provide meaningful digital management of PV power stations.
Zhang noted, UPER has established an ecosystem based on management of core technology assets, omni-directional value-added services and derivative advanced customer system management. In the early stages of the development of a renewable energy project, UPER can optimize the investment decision for customers through their years of experience accumulated in the process of power station asset management.
During the construction period, the company's eRM™ platform helps customers have better control over the power station assets by managing the data concerning the assets in real time. During the operational period, UPER provides customers with oversight and control in six key areas, among them, the station's production and operation, daily operation and maintenance, quality and safety, and supply chain management, with its UniCare asset management platform. In addition, the company's DoctorU™ service provides one-stop testing, evaluation and upgrade services for management of the customer's renewable energy assets, as well as all-in-one solutions to enhance power station revenue for customers.
Through the comprehensive due diligence with after-sale guarantee and the operation and maintenance service with pre-sale risk control, UPER provides customers with one-stop service from power station evaluation, diagnosis in concert with a comprehensive optimization scheme to post maintenance, so that a well-operated and well-maintained power station can become a hard currency in the power station trading market and maximize its revenue.
About Uper EnergyUper Energy (UPER) is a global renewable asset manager providing secure, reliable and efficient operations and maintenance (O&M) support for solar power plants, wind farms and energy storage equipment. Operating in more than 150 cities worldwide, UPER manages power plants with more than 2 GW of installed capacity. UPER is now working to expand its footprint and gain market share in India, Japan, the Netherlands, Singapore and Thailand.

Korea's IBK Clinches Partnership With Myanmar MSME Development Working Committee
By Nancy Lyons
In a bid to expand its operations in Myanmar, the leading Industrial Bank of Korea (IBK) said it had signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Myanmar MSME Development Working Committee on Monday at Lotte Hotel Busan.
The signing of the MoU will pave the way for IBK and MSME to support small and medium-sized enterprises in both countries and develop joint policy finance projects.
As per the agreement, the two sides will enhance personal and policy exchanges to nurture SMEs. The agreement will assist Korean and Myanmar companies in discovering business opportunities in each other countries.
It will help the Industrial Bank of Korea and Myanmar's SME policy headquarters to expand business in the Southeast Asian region, according to the officials.
The Industrial Bank of Korea is expected to share key knowhow and crucial experiences to assist the individuals in Myanmar. The state-run lender will help in developing specific skills in SME financing, along with some other vital financial knowledge.
An IBK official said that both the economies of Myanmar and Vietnam had displayed massive growth potential in ASEAN. There will be fast economic growth and facilitation of the government's new southern policy with Korea's cooperation.
This has emerged as IBK's fresh initiative to boost cooperation with Myanmar soon after an MOU was signed earlier this year in September jointly by the bank, Korea Land & Housing Corp. (LH), and Korea Trade-Investment Promotion Agency (KOTRA) to assist Korean SMEs to make their debut in Southeast Asian country.
Korea Development Bank and KB Kookmin Bank are also planning to expand its business operations in Myanmar along with IBK.
Myanmar registered an annual growth rate of 7%, which has turned it into a happening investment destination. Earlier, Myanmar's government also introduced deregulation efforts to attract foreign investment.

Macroinvertebrate Community Patterns In Relation to Leaf-Associated Periphyton Under Contrasting Light and Nutrient Conditions In Headwater Streams

Temperate headwater streams traditionally have been considered heterotrophic and brown food web dominated with little primary production. Recent work, however, suggests algae on leaves in these streams may play a greater role than previously thought through interactions with microbial decomposers like fungi. Algae also may be important for macroinvertebrates colonizing leaves in streams. Algae are a more nutritious food resource for shredders than fungi and bacteria and provide a food resource for non‐shredder macroinvertebrates.
In a field experiment, we manipulated light in three low‐nutrient and three high‐nutrient streams using leaf bags filled with red maple leaves in winter and spring. After four weeks we measured algal and fungal biomass, leaf stoichiometry, and macroinvertebrate abundance and biomass associated with the leaf bags. We also identified the macroinvertebrate community and examined differences in functional feeding guilds and taxa under ambient‐ and shaded‐light treatments and low‐ and high‐nutrient concentrations in relation to measured leaf characteristics.
Algal biomass on leaves was greatest in high‐nutrient streams and ambient‐light treatments in both seasons. Fungal biomass on leaves was greatest in high‐nutrient streams and showed a moderate marginally significant positive correlation with algae during the winter. Leaf C:N was negatively correlated to algae in winter and fungi in both seasons, while leaf N:P and C:P were negatively correlated to fungi in winter and algae in spring. Interactions between fungi and algae on leaves and the nutritional importance of each for macroinvertebrates likely change across seasons, potentially impacting macroinvertebrate community composition.
Macroinvertebrate diversity did not differ, but biomass was significantly greater in shaded‐light treatments during spring. Abundance was highest in the high‐nutrient ambient‐light conditions in both seasons, corresponding to greatest algal biomass. Functional feeding guild biomass and abundance were related to different leaf characteristics by season and guild. Higher algal biomass was an important factor for colonization of certain macroinvertebrates (e.g., Ephemerella (Ephemeroptera: Ephemerellidae) and Stenonema (Ephemeroptera: Heptageniidae)), while others were more abundant under shaded treatments with lower algal biomass (e.g., Tipula (Diptera: Tipulidae)), indicating taxa‐specific responses.
Leaf‐associated algae may be an important factor mediating macroinvertebrate communities associated with leaves in temperate headwater streams. Our results demonstrate that green and brown food webs intersect within leaf packs, and they cannot be easily disentangled. We therefore should consider both autochthonous and allochthonous resources within headwater streams when examining their communities or developing water management strategies.

"All you could ever want from a murder mystery" – Review of Another Number for the Road
Posted on July 15, 2017 by LNH
Thanks to writer Leigh Verrill-Rhys for this generous review of Boom-Books author CJ Verburg's new Cory Goodwin mystery!
Featured Book: Review
June 26, 2017 by Leigh Verrill-Rhys: EverWriting
CJ Verburg's Another Number for the Road has all you could ever want from a murder mystery set in two iconic periods of American history: the 1960s: Free Speech, Free Love, Stop the War, Civil Rights and sex, drugs, rock and roll; and 1980s: Reaganomics, Cold War Collapse, Punk Rock, big hair and bigger shoulders.
Rock journo cum detective, Cory Goodwin (who has as many names as identities) goes on a "Magical Mystery Tour," and then some, to recover her true inner self which has been consumed and subsumed by the demands of her multimillionaire son-of-the-founder-of-a-cosmetics-conglomerate husband's boardroom betrayal of all they meant to each other as writing romantics who eloped in creative Paris and crashed in corporate necessity in Boston.
Cordelia Goodwin Thorne had many years of protest activism and rock star groupie antics to keep her from sinking into the paradox of her journo daydreams and her cosmetic charity dinner reality.
She joins the "Magical Mystery Tour" when she learns that The Rind is the mystery band—a group she interviewed for a magazine as a teenager. She aims to rekindle her past admiration for the much-maligned strongman of the band, the appropriately named, Dan Quasi, who, after the brutal murder of his friend and co-band member, Mickey Ascher, takes a runner and hides out for the twenty year hiatus, having lost his wife and his French bit to aforementioned co-band member.
Did this Quasi musician kill his best friend? Or was it the French bit? Or possibly her jilted lover and third band member, also appropriately named, Roach? Or has the mild-mannered Terry, fourth band member, been hiding a violent temper all these years?
The process of discovery is further energized by the author's experience as a playwright and director. CJ Verburg makes use of the theatrical technique of juxtaposing two scenes on stage at once: flashbacks, backstory, supposition and real time, one upon the other, while skillfully juggling a cast of characters that would daunt Cecil B. DeMille and D.W. Griffiths.
Another Number for the Road will satisfy all fans of complex, convoluted whodunits who remember the Sixties with longing and survived the Eighties, Nineties and are in deep with the Twentieth Century.

Wuhan Plans to Test All 11 Million Citizens as New Coronavirus Cluster Emerges
Cory Ray
Wuhan officials have announced that the city now plans to test all of its residents for the coronavirus over a 10-day period.
The announcement comes after the city confirmed six new cases over the weekend, all of which have been traced back to an 89-year-old man.
Even with the drastic measures, health officials are trying to reassure people by explaining that a small cluster of new cases does not necessarily mean a larger, second wave of the virus.
Another city in northeastern China, Shulan, reported more than a dozen cases over the weekend and has now re-entered lockdown, declaring itself in "wartime mode."
Wuhan to Test All 11 Million Residents
After a small but concerning spike in COVID-19 cases, Wuhan officials have announced that they intend to test all of the city's 11 million residents by the end of next week.
The announcement, made Monday, comes after Wuhan confirmed six new cases over the weekend. While such a number may seem small compared to what the United States is currently experiencing, for many, it's a worrying sign of a potential second wave of cases.
That's because, before these new cases, Wuhan went 35 days without seeing any new infections. On April 8, the city even reopened, ending a 76-day lockdown.
According to a notice ordering these tests, "Each district should make plans and arrangements to conduct nucleic acid tests on the entire population in its jurisdiction within a 10-day time limit."
Because of that, each district will also pay for testing all of its residents.
The notice also went on to say that the first round of testing will focus on vulnerable groups such as the elderly or those who are immunocompromised. It will also reportedly focus on densely populated communities such as those with concentrated migrant populations.
According to the Chinese financial news agency Yicai, more than one million people in the city have already been tested.
The Cluster of Cases Leading to this Testing
On Sunday, local health authorities reported that five people in a single residential compound— the Sanmin compound in the East West Lake district of Wuhan—had been diagnosed with the coronavirus.
All of those cases were then linked back to an 89-year-old man who was confirmed to have the coronavirus the day before.
Notably, this compound houses about 5,000 people. During the lockdown, 20 people there tested positive for the coronavirus. According to reports, that man was never tested, but it seems that he may have also contracted the virus during the lockdown.
That's because on March 17th, he reportedly developed a fever, but he later recovered at home within ten days. Last month, however, his health issues resurfaced. He then seemingly spread the virus to his wife and two other elderly couples.
As to why his symptoms seemingly came back out of nowhere, Wu Zunyou, the chief epidemiologist at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention told China Central Television, "…the course of disease could last 30 to 50 days for some patients. The virus could take longer to manifest itself in patients with weak immunity, who are also prone to 'ons' and 'offs' of symptoms."
Wu also stressed that this small cluster of cases shouldn't be considered the start of a second wave in Wuhan.
"There will not be a new minor peak," he said. "We have had the epidemic under control after more than three months of efforts and accumulated considerable experience in both diagnosis and [epidemic] notification. Therefore, we will not allow scattered cases to develop into massive outbreaks."
When asked if he believed it truly necessary to test everyone in Wuhan, Wu said that tests could be targeted to areas with known infections but that there's no need to do it in residential areas without any cases.
Another Chinese City Re-enters Lockdown
On Tuesday, the National Health Commission reported only two new confirmed cases for Monday, both of them imported and neither in Wuhan. One is located in the Inner Mongolia autonomous region while the other is in the Shanghai municipality.
That doesn't mean Wuhan is the only city in China seeing smaller clusters of cases. Over the weekend, the northeastern city of Shulan reported 14 new cases and has now declared that it's in "wartime mode."
Like the cases in Wuhan, they've all been traced back to a single person. This time it was a 45-year-old woman who was diagnosed with the coronavirus on Thursday, though it's unknown how she actually contracted the virus.
Because of that, the city has now gone back into lockdown until the end of the month.

The missing include at least 13 children under the age of 16.
Children Missing From Hotels
There are 200 asylum-seeking children missing from government care in the United Kingdom according to the parliamentary undersecretary of state at the Home Office.
When children are seeking asylum in the U.K. alone or separated from their parents, the government puts them up in hotel rooms for temporary accommodation. They have done so since 2021 and have temporarily accommodated 4,600 children in that time. However, Simon Murray, the parliamentary undersecretary of state at the Home Office, said that 200 of the children placed in those hotels are missing, including at least 13 who are under the age of 16.
In response to this information, a collection of more than 100 charities sent a letter to the Prime Minister demanding the end of the procedure of placing kids in hotels over safety concerns. The letter says that these children are at risk of trafficking and exploitation by staying in these hotels alone.
Other officials have echoed these concerns, claiming these hotels are targets for organized crime where people use these vulnerable children for labor or trafficking.
Parliament Calls Incident "Horrific"
Murray told the House of Lords on Monday that despite the media reports, his department does not know of any kidnapping cases, though they are investigating. He went on to say there are many reasons why children go missing.
However, lawmakers were not appeased by Murray's assurances. In a later debate, one member of Parliament called the missing cases "horrific" and another said that it was "putting children at risk." The children's commissioner for England also reportedly chimed in asking for, quote "assurances on the steps being taken to safeguard the children."
Murray went on to say that the use of hotels for asylum-seeking children will hopefully be phased out as soon as possible but did not give a timeline.
The nonprofit Refugee Council called on the government in a tweet to spare no expense in the location of these missing kids.

100,000 U.K. Nurses Launch Biggest Strike in NHS History
Chris Tolve
Opposition leader Keir Starmer called the strike "a badge of shame on this government."
The NHS Grinds to a Halt
Some 100,000 members of the Royal College of Nursing (RCN), the United Kingdom's largest nursing union, launched a historic 12-hour strike Thursday after the government refused to negotiate on higher pay.
The work stoppage, which spans England, Wales, and Northern Ireland, is only the second in the RCN's 106-year history and the largest the NHS has ever seen. It marks the breaking point for many underpaid nurses and the culmination of a years-long decline in the NHS's quality of care, put under increasing stress by severe staffing shortages.
Although most NHS staff in England and Wales received a pay rise of around £1,400 this year, worth about 4% on average for nurses, they say it has not kept up with inflation as Britain plunges deeper into a cost-of-living crisis.
When inflation is accounted for, nurses' pay dropped 1.2% every year from 2010 to 2017, according to the Health Foundation.
Meanwhile, the number of patients waiting for care has reached a record 7.2 million in England, or over one in eight residents, more than double what it was seven years ago.
In July, the cross-party Commons Health and Social Care Select Committee estimated the staffing shortfall could be as high as 50,000 nurses and 12,000 doctors, what one MP called the "greatest workforce crisis in history."
Many nurses argue that boosting pay will help hospitals recruit more staff.
The RCN demanded a pay raise 5% above the retail rate of inflation, which amounts to a 19% increase, but both Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and the government's health secretary have claimed that's not affordable.
During Thursday's strike, partial staffing continued to remain open for urgent care such as chemotherapy, kidney dialysis, and children's accident and neonatal units.
Sunak and Starmer Brawl in Parliament
Labor leader Keir Starmer grilled Sunak during Wednesday's Prime Minister's Questions (PMQs) on the upcoming strike.
"Tomorrow will be the first-ever nationwide nurse's strike," he said. "All the Prime Minister has to do to stop that is to open the door and discuss pay with them. If he did, the whole country would breathe a sigh of relief. Why won't he?"
"We have consistently spoken to all the unions involved in all the pay disputes that there are," Sunak replied. "Last year, when everyone else in the public sector had a public sector pay freeze, the nurses received a three-percent pay rise."
Starmer fired back: "Nurses going on strike is a badge of shame for this government. Instead of showing leadership, he's playing games with people's health."
Sunak called Starmer's demand that he reopen negotiations with the RCN "just simply a political formula for avoiding taking a position on this issue."
"If he thinks the strikes are wrong, he should say so," Sunak said. "If he thinks it's right that pay demands of nineteen percent are met, then he should say so. What's weak, Mr. Speaker, is he's not strong enough to stand up to the union."
While Starmer has called on Sunak to negotiate with the RCN, he has not explicitly backed the 19% pay raise himself.
Unless the government returns to the bargaining table, the RCN plans to launch a second round of strikes on Dec. 20 to be followed by ambulance strikes that Wednesday and the next.
If the government still refuses to budge, the union said in a statement that nurses will strike for longer periods in more places starting in January, disrupting more health services.
Other industries are also set to see work stoppages this month, including workers on railways, buses, highways, and borders, as well as teachers, postal workers, baggage handlers, and paramedics.

Fortnite Developer Sued By Parents for Making the Game as "Addictive as Possible"
One child mentioned in the lawsuit played over 7,700 rounds of Fortnite in two years.
Epic Games Sued
A Quebec City judge recently approved a 2019 class-action lawsuit accusing Fortnite developer Epic Games of deliberately making Fortnite addictive.
The parents who brought forward the lawsuit claim their children have become so obsessed with the game that in some cases, they've stopped eating, showering, or socializing. The lawsuit claims that these kids have played thousands of games since Fortnite's release in 2017. In one example, a teenager played over 7,700 games in less than two years.
If the lawsuit succeeds, players addicted to Fortnite living in Quebec since September 2017 could receive compensation. The plaintiff's attorney, Philippe Caron, reports that over 200 parents outside the lawsuit have reached out to him, saying their child's well-being has diminished since downloading Fortnite. He told The Washington Post that they are very confident about their case.
Epic Games Responds
"We plan to fight this in court," Natalie Munoz, a spokesperson for Epic Games said to The Post, "We believe the evidence will show that this case is meritless."
Munoz also said that Fortnite does allow parents to supervise their child's playtime and require permission for purchases.
The parents involved in the lawsuit are claiming that they were not aware of the dangers playing Fortnite could pose for their children.
"If she had been informed by the defendants of the risks and dangers associated with the use of FORTNITE," the lawsuit says of one guardian. "She would have categorically refused to allow the game to be downloaded."

The idea of "still life," (the representation of inanimate objects, such as fruit, in paintings or photography) intrigues me. One day, I set out arranging and rearranging items in pleasing manners to take photographs. Maybe for quilt ideas, or if the images came out real good, to frame and hang on my walls. The image I liked best is this one: my shoes, hat, guitars, quilt, water, glass, magic leaves.
Both of these artists radiate music through voice, timing, and percussion. In Gangsta Party, there is no slide in, no pause: "Picture perfect," before we realize the verse has even begun. In Too Young to Know, Muddy sings/narrates, but the conversation is between young girls and the more mature women who knows very well. Both are lightening and thunder. Spontaneity, exaggeration and craft. I honor them. They are more than inspiration, they motivate me to add my voice to the conversation.
So, the mind as mixture, seemingly askew, but not, simply bubbling excitement, and these artists, with our shared origins, led me to go back further, to research other artists and was there such a thing as homemade stringed instruments. This is a sampling of what I found.
Stunning beauty and creativity all around the African continent and the Diaspora. The second photo is not of a homemade instrument; just wanted to show her excitement. The images are excitement and contagious. The artists have the nerve to create, are in possession of the artists' way. Create, no matter what. So I thought, what if? The following is Blue Belle, my homemade cigar box guitar.
2. : a compelling attraction; charm or fascination.
A conversation. Yes. This is magic, spellwork and especially divination. Further, every experience has the potential to be magical, especially, as the definition states—words, and of course, music. Think about your favorite songs, how the hearing of them gives you goose bumps, how sitting in a favorite chair wearing ear plugs and listening to that favorite voice, and or instrumentation puts you in a sort of trance. You are relaxed. You are smiling. You are content.
My next burgeoning project began as songs, just me playing around with lyrics and guitar chords. One of the songs that emerged, White Night Falling, seemed a strong contender for the main voice of something. I just didn't know what.
Artists, you know that in these times of seemingly jumbled information, the thing to do is wait, listen to day and night dreams, believe and ask the question, what if?
What if the project was poems and music?
What if the project expanded to include other written forms?
What if the title and book cover had to do with trance states, magic words, the awesome-ness of still lives, those inanimate objects that portray the power of seemingly motionless form?
What of heterodoxy, the challenge of taking the least walked or new path?
What if you include a cd of musical forms and selected poems?
Coming soon, maybe by autumn or winter.
We free-flow create: write, sing, draw, sew, etc.
One day I searched goodreads.com for something to read and found a book titled All the Women Are White, All the Blacks Are Men, But Some of Us Are Brave, edited by Gloria T. Hull, Patricia Bell Scott, and Barbara Smith, The Feminist Press, 1982.
2. My feeble attempt to create something.
The title, All the Women Are White, All the Blacks Are Men, But Some of Us Are Brave, inspired me to write a poem about how I think black women are, and are not, seen in the media, particularly television and movies. It was an OK poem.
The image shows a little girl. She is no older than 10. She and the other children are slaves. While the mothers of the babies are working the field, the older child watches the children. She is the babysitter.
I said, "Yes Berthenia. You are the most beautiful. I sat at the computer. She continued to speak and I transcribed her words. She even sent me back to retrieve the initial OK poem I had written inspired by the book title, All the Women Are White, All the Blacks Are Men, But Some of Us Are Brave.
It was an easy fix. Berthenia showed me my mistakes, and how to re-imagine the poem so that it could take its rightful place in her story.
The name, Berthenia Belle, entered the session in the midst of Berthenia's narration.
Berthenia is an artist: songwriter, musician, craftswoman. She gave me the lyrics to one of her songs, and she created her own Diddley Bow.
Back in 2016, I was beginning to teach myself how to play guitar because some of my poems wanted to be songs. In researching early musicians, especially Blues musicians, I wondered what they played before the guitar, as we know the guitar today. One of the instruments they played was the Diddley Bow.
The following pictures show my Diddley Bow. It is nailed to a door frame in my kitchen. The door frame surrounds my Ilé `Ọrun (my family ancestor shrine or altar).
As was the custom, Berthenia's Diddley Bow is nailed to the front porch post of the cabin where she lived with the babies.
Berthenia Belle, the most beautiful flower. Thank you for your life, your power, your struggle, your creativity.
I thank God for Berthenia Belle, this brave child, this wondrous woman baby girl.
Some of the ancestors are children.
Berthenia Belle spoke her story to me as one long, book length poem.
Look for Berthenia Belle, a poem, on amazon and on this website on or before July 1.
Follow the progress of Berthenia Belle, a poem, here.
This is how we listen. This is how we create.

The Weeknd new music coming soon following 'Avatar 2' music shortlist for Oscars 2023

After releasing his recent song, "Nothing Is Lost (You Give Me Strength)," for the highly anticipated film "Avatar 2: The Way of the Water," it appears Abel is spending a lot of time in the studio working on his next record.
"Nothing Is Lost (You Give Me Strength)" is included on the film's official soundtrack and has been nominated for Best Original Song at the upcoming 2023 Academy Awards.
When asked about his thoughts on the nomination, Abel told The Hollywood Reporter:
"I feel honored to be part of that list. Any kind of recognition for it feels like a blessing."
The Weeknd elaborated on his feelings about being nominated for an Oscar, saying that it "definitely feels different" than being nominated for a Grammy.
In terms of the creative process for "Nothing is Lost," The Weeknd stated that working with collaborators such as James Cameron puts a lot of pressure on him.
He admitted:
"I was honored, but I was nervous. It's such a big opportunity and the film is so massive that naturally I was nervous. I knew I was going to be working with some special collaborators because I was going to be working with people who had vision and knew exactly what they wanted,"
While The Weeknd has been unusually quiet since his release and in recent months, the publication's interview gave his fans some hope that new material from the chart-topping artist is on the way.
He was asked if he worked in music at the end of the interview. The Weekend, being the direct and brief individual that he is, provided a very straightforward response.
He answered:
"I've definitely been inspired. I've been in the studio,"
Although nothing else was said about The Weeknd's new music, it can be said that he was working quietly as he surprised everyone with the release of a new music video for "Is There Someone Else," from his latest project, "Dawn FM."
The video was released on the anniversary of the release of "Dawn FM," which was released on January 7, 2022. The project was released a year ago and debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 albums chart.

"What's the difference?" Is the most frequently asked question about the many muffler options Two Brothers offers with their exhaust systems.
The difference is purely cosmetic. All of their muffler options, Standard, Black Series, Silver Series and the S1R have that one of a kind Two Brothers sound and the same level of performance.
Below are pictures of the different muffler options. We will also go into an explanation of end cap variations and muffler positioning.
Use your back button anytime to exit.
The mufflers shown above are the most common. Side mount with the muffler attaching to the passenger foot peg bracket, as shown here on the Honda CBR500R or the Suzuki GSXR600/750.
Two Brothers mufflers also come with different end cap variations and muffler positioning which is determined by the motorcycle make/model the exhaust is built for, here are some examples.
This is a Silver Series Aluminum muffler which looks different from the mufflers above because of the end cap and the muffler positioning.
Depending on the motorcycle make/model this muffler is available in several styles. For example, the CBR1000RR shown above is the 2012 model and Two Brothers offers muffler options in Black Series Aluminum, Carbon Fiber, Titanium and Silver Series Aluminum and Carbon Fiber. The Kawasaki shown is the ZX6R 2012 and Two Brothers offers muffler options in Aluminum, Carbon Fiber, Titanium (a.k.a. Standard Series), Black Series Aluminum, Carbon Fiber, Titanium and Silver Series Aluminum and Carbon Fiber.
This is a Black Series Carbon Fiber muffler which looks different from the mufflers above because of the end cap and the muffler positioning.
Depending on the motorcycle make/model this muffler is available in several styles. For example, the CBR600RR shown above is the 2013 model and Two Brothers offers muffler options in Black Series Aluminum, Carbon Fiber, Titanium and Silver Series Aluminum and Carbon Fiber. The R1 shown is the 2013 model and Two Brothers offers muffler options in Aluminum, Carbon Fiber, Titanium (a.k.a. Standard Series), Black Series Aluminum, Carbon Fiber, Titanium and Silver Series Aluminum and Carbon Fiber.
Almost every Two Brothers exhaust for the street is an "M2" canister. M2 refers to the size of the canister portion of the muffler. It is much more rare these days than it used to be but there are some motorcycles that Two Brothers manufactures in M2 and M5 canisters. The difference here is only in size, sound and performance remain the same. Here is a line art drawing showing the size difference between M2 and M5.
Some motorcycles are only available in an M5 canister like the BMW K1300S and the Kawasaki Concours 14 as shown below.
The bottom line is that every Two Brothers exhaust is designed to replace the motorcycle's OEM/stock exhaust. Installation is simple, all the necessary installation hardware is included along with detailed installation instructions.

The Meiji reform in the late 19th century abolished Japan's samurai class, and a western-style national army was established. It seemed, for a time, that the once proud warriors would forever be relegated to mobile apps (as fruit-slicing protagonists), classic films (see Yojimbo, Throne of Blood, etc.), and manga… but then Isao Machii came along.
For a few years now, Machii has been flaunting the almost 150-year-old Meiji rules to became a sword-wielding legend, and he's developed quite a following. A video demonstrating the modern-day samurai's lightning-fast reaction skills was posted to YouTube has been viewed 7.5 millions times and counting.
Machii used his sword to slice in half a rubber baseball traveling 161 kph (100 mph). Given his distance from the pitching machine net, he had just 0.2 seconds to react to the ball.
This wasn't the first time Machii has bisected fastballs.
Four years ago, Machii successfully chopped baseballs hurled at 300 kph (186 mph) and 500 kph (311 mph), mixing in annihilation of a soccer ball and gun-fired BB for good measure.
When you're as effective with a sword as Machii, naturally you're going to be called into service to replicate the gameplay of Fruit Ninja — which is exactly what happened when Machii visited Los Angeles. Watch out for watermelon!

Just two third-party candidates for Scranton mayor file papers so far
BY BORYS KRAWCZENIUK, STAFF WRITER / Published: September 9, 2019
Just two potential third-party candidates for Scranton mayor have filed the required paperwork to get on the Nov. 5 special election ballot so far — despite a flurry of candidates interested in running.
Lackawanna County election officials confirmed city Councilman Kyle Donahue, 33, filed nomination papers as the Independent candidate, and downtown pizzeria owner Giovanni Piccolino, 43, filed as the Independent for Mayor candidate.
Assuming their papers aren't successfully challenged, Donahue and Piccolino will join a ballot that includes attorney Chris Cullen, 66, the Democratic nominee, and retired elementary school teacher Charlie Spano, 71, the Republican nominee. Democratic and Republican committees nominated Cullen and Spano last month. Non-Democrats and non-Republicans who want to qualify each need at least 212 Scranton residents to sign their nomination papers to get on the Nov. 5 ballot. The deadline for filing nomination papers is Sept. 16.
Seven others picked up blank nomination papers last month with the intent of gathering enough signatures.
They are Bob Bolus, 76, a truck parts and towing company owner; Paige Cognetti, 39, a former Scranton school director on unpaid leave from her job as special assistant to state Auditor General Eugene DePasquale; Brian Gaughan, 45, a warehouse team leader and musician; John Goshleski, 30, a tattoo artist; Lee Morgan, 60, a truck driver; Gary St. Fleur, 35, a writer and activist; and Stephen Tunis, 36.
Gaughan, who promoted his candidacy on Facebook, said about 100 people signed his papers so far, but he's having trouble gathering the rest. Many who attend his rock band's shows have shown interest in signing, but can't, he said.
"The No. 1 problem I'm having is half the people don't live in Scranton anymore. Others aren't registered to vote," Gaughan said. "As of right now, I don't have a good hope for it (getting enough signatures)."
Cognetti said she will file soon with more than enough signatures.
"I have enough but I'm trying to get as many as possible," she said.
Bolus, who unsuccessfully sought the Republican nomination, and St. Fleur also said they will file soon.
"We've got more than enough (signatures)," Bolus said. "We're going to be filing, no ifs, ands or buts."
Bolus could face a legal challenge to his ability to serve if he is elected because of felony convictions in 1991 and 2012. However, Bolus said in August he is working to expunge both convictions and will be eligible to serve.
Goshleski said he plans to file next week. He said he has enough signatures but wants to acquire more before filing.
Attempts to reach Morgan and Tunis were unsuccessful.
In the special election, voters will choose someone to serve the remaining two years of former Mayor Bill Courtright's term starting Jan. 6. Courtright resigned and pleaded guilty in July to conspiracy, extortion and bribery. City council replaced him with Councilman Wayne Evans, who will serve until the new mayor takes over. The mayor earns $75,000 a year.

Maria am Gestade, es una de las iglesias más antiguas de Viena (Austria) y uno de los pocos ejemplos que quedan en la ciudad de arquitectura gótica. La iglesia se localiza en Salvatorgasse 12, cerca del canal del Danubio y era frecuentada tradicionalmente por los navegantes.

Se dice que antes había una iglesia de madera en este lugar en el siglo IX, que servía como lugar de culto para pescadores y navegantes. La iglesia se menciona por primera vez en documentos de 1158. El presente edificio fue construido entre 1394 y 1414 en estilo gótico y en 1409 la iglesia pasó a formar parte de la diócesis de Passau. Cuando se estableció la diócesis de Viena en 1469, Maria am Gestade quedó aislada del resto su diócesis. Fue desacralizada en 1786 y usada como almacén y establo durante la ocupación de Viena por parte de Napoleón (1809). En 1812 la iglesia fue renovada y nuevamente consagrada. La iglesia se asocia con la comunidad checa de Viena.

La característica más llamativa de la iglesia es su torre de 56 metros de alto, construida de 1419 a 1428. Se la puede distinguir a gran distancia y aparece representada en las imágenes más viejas de la ciudad. De cerca, la portada de su fachada occidental cuenta con una pequeña escalinata de diez peldaños, rematada por un pórtico hexagonal cubierto por una semicúpula. El coro contiene dos paneles góticos de 1460. Los ventanales conservan fragmentos de vitrales medievales.

Have more fun on your next motorcycle ride
Capture the Fun of Your Next Motorcycle Ride
Use Sena's Newest Action Camera to Bring Your Next Ride Home!
When GoPro first arrived on the market 18 years ago, it transformed how we thought about recording video on the go. But despite its Herculean presence in the action camera game, the GoPro and other similar cameras have some downsides, especially for riders. (One quick search for "mounting a GoPro to your motorcycle helmet" and you'll see that this issue—and its potential illegality—has sparked considerable debate among riders online.) And then there's the now-ubiquitous Internet of Things (IoT). In today's connected world, riders are no longer satisfied with a camera that simply films; we want, and expect, Bluetooth to be a feature of all our motorcycle devices.
Thankfully, the action camera game has come a long way since 2002, propelled by new technology and our insatiable appetite for documenting everything on social media for the world to see. The latest action camera model to hit the market, Sena's 10C Pro Camera and Communications System, is designed specifically to help riders not only capture jaw-dropping footage, but have a lot of fun doing it.
The model is currently sold out many places online, so your best bet is Amazon. There's a lot to love about Sena's latest and greatest motorcycle camera-communication hybrid—making it worth the splurge any time of year.
Here are six Sena 10C Pro features that will make your next ride a whole lot more fun. (For its full list of specs, check out its official product page.)
It captures incredibly crisp video
You wouldn't expect anything less than HD from a professional video camera, and the Sena 10C Pro is no different—hence the "Pro" in its name. The 10C Pro shoots video in QHD (1440p/30fps) or full HD (1080p/30 or 60fps), and photos at 16:9, a quality level our content-savvy world has come to demand. The action cam's 135-degree field of view lets you capture every detail, no matter how hard you're hitting the pavement. It also doubles as a reliable dash-cam.
For a fun twist on basic road videos, try the Sena 10C Pro's time-lapse mode, which turns even the most leisurely ride into a sped-up, bite-sized viewing experience full of twists and turns. (Don't have a helmet cam but still want to shoot an awesome time-lapse? Check out this guide for shooting time-lapses with your iPhone.)
It does the audio mixing for you
Thanks to the Sena 10C Pro's Smart Audio Mix feature, your helmet cam will mix audio from your smartphone, or even your Bluetooth intercom, straight into the video you're filming. The result? Real-time voiceovers even an amateur filmmaker can stand behind.
It comes with Wi-Fi connectivity and the user-friendly Sena Camera app
Wi-Fi connectivity lets you preview your camera angle and adjust your lens to fit the curve of your helmet—taking the guesswork out of capturing that unforgettable stretch of your ride. The lens rotates up to 30 degrees, which can make a big difference in the quality of your final footage.
Over on the Sena Camera App, you can configure your camera's settings in just a few swipes and download everything you capture directly to your smartphone. The result is high-quality content, downloaded and shared more easily than ever. There's also the Sena Headset App, which is less exciting but lets you view a helpful quick-start guide.
It lets you communicate with up to three of your rider buddies
The Sena 10C Pro's Bluetooth system is seriously powerful, putting a host of capabilities at your fingertips. You can communicate with as many as three other riders using its intercom, staying in touch even if they're up to 1 mile behind or ahead of you. Use the helmet cam's Bluetooth to listen to music, follow your GPS, make calls and connect with on-bike entertainment systems.
Want to connect with riders around the globe, not a 1-mile radius? Check out the RideConnected App, which lets you chat with other motorcycle riders through your Sena Bluetooth headset, without geographic limitations. Just keep in mind that, unlike Sena's action cameras, the app only has mediocre reviews on Google Play and the App Store. We haven't tested it out yet.
It gives you the power of multitasking
There's nothing worse than getting to the favorite part of a song (or a crucial direction from your GPS), only to have a call put it on hold. The Sena 10C Pro's Audio Multitasking feature lets you speak over its Bluetooth intercom while still hearing a second audio source, like your GPS or music. If you own the Sena 10C, consider this a substantial upgrade to the quality communication experience you already know—and likely already love.
Its installation is easy and secure
Sena has had a few generations of its action cam to perfect the installation system, and with the Sena 10C Pro they've come pretty close. We found this product for sale on Amazon.

On the most sensible of the hill my Zulu shouted and sat at a precise balancing element, at the shaft of his rickshaw. We coasted silently down the slope at what looked to be an excellent pace, among obvious white homes and flamboyant splashes of color. The inn was once in a delightful sq. and was once cool and gorgeous. White turbans and white clothing moved via shadowed rooms. naked or slippered toes slapped discreetly down quiet corridors. I booked myself in after which, with another of our shipmates observed my pal off within the Johannesburg convey and set approximately exploring Durban. I observed the Valley of 1000 Hills from a top referred to as the Berea and, returning, wandered in regards to the streets until eventually my heels blistered and the warmth was once an excessive amount of to be continued. again on the resort i discovered my cool room and its personal darkish toilet and for what was once left of the day, I bathed and rested yet was once too excited to sleep. within the past due night I dined on a large verandah of the lodge and watched the area cross by way of. Who was once the reasonable younger guy who joined me in the course of dinner and ordered, i believe, a bottle of champagne? I fancy, he should have been certainly one of a celebration at a close-by desk and that i feel he should have been a fellow passenger: I didn't simply decide him up. yet i will not bear in mind his identify or assembly with him on the other get together. I keep in mind that he requested me to affix his celebration which used to be celebrating an engagement. I did so and intended it used to be a South African customized to hyperlink hands and click on glasses so ceremoniously. What a fuss! Having, out of pleasure, slept in no way the former evening, and having walked, regarded and stared myself to a standstill through the day and having taken, additionally, glasses of champagne and a few van der Hum with my dinner, every little thing now grew to become hazy. i feel I refused a call for participation to move on someplace and as a substitute went directly to mattress and to sleep for ten hours. the following morning whilst, nonetheless footsore, I got here out of the inn, there, squatting through the kerb along with his rickshaw, used to be yesterday's Zulu. He stated, with a delightful smile, that he used to be my boy and the place have been we going? My scruples approximately one person trotting among shafts for an additional have been in truth held and so they now lower back yet have been weakened through my blisters and careworn through the perspective of the fellow himself. evidently, he had waited there decades while he could have been operating in other places. He may hence be a loser if I provided an evidence (which he wouldn't comprehend or take pleasure in) after which, po-faced, tottered on my blisters looking for a taxi. may still i've got given him a compensatory sum and a self-righteous observation? An odious resolution which he may without doubt have rightly interpreted as an insult to himself and his rickshaw. I took the rickshaw. He mentioned areas of curiosity, nodded, smiled, trotted and uttered cries of greeting or caution to different rickshaws. Did he hate me in his middle, imagine me mad or no longer take into consideration me in any respect? with none shadow of doubt – the final. He carried me to the local marketplace, a spot of attraction. there have been no white humans approximately yet a very good jogging crowd of Indians, Negroes and 'coloureds' whose unique races i used to be not able to outline.
