Victoria: Trans History Recap
Posted on March 31, 2016 by calgarygayhistory | Leave a comment
We had a stimulating three days of exploring trans identity and trans history at the University of Victoria's Moving Trans History Forward 2016 conference, March 17-20. The conference was a grounding in important dates, personalties, and terminology in the transgender community. It also touched on current issues such as the need for preservation of trans histories and the status of trans materials in larger queer collections such as at the Canadian Lesbian and Gay Archives (CLGA).
Academics, community activists, artists and historians created a stimulating jam-packed event. And like at most conferences, some of the most interesting conversations were with the person you found yourself sitting beside at lunch. One highlight was learning about the Transvengers web comic. A collaborative project between trans youth and researchers at the University of Exeter, that saw the youth interact fantastically with sexologists from the past.
We were delighted to learn that there will be a trans history exhibition at the Nickle Galleries at the University of Calgary this June. Called Trans Trans, the show will explore the influence of Magnus Hirschfeld on Alfred Kinsey through images found in the Kinsey archive and others in popular culture. Trans Trans is curated by U of C history professor Annette Timm, and her academic partners, Michael Taylor (Portland, Oregon) and Rainer Herrn (Berlin, Germany).
We talked to trans activist, Rupert Raj, about his time in 1970's Calgary, and his association with the Gender Identity clinic at the Foothills Hospital. Following the conference, we found sources in UVic's Transgender Archives about the physicians who ran the clinic as well as more on the early days in Calgary of the Foundation for the Advancement of Canadian Transsexuals (FACT).

Trans History in YYC
Posted on March 17, 2016 by calgarygayhistory | 1 comment
In June 1978, a national Trans publication was began in Calgary. Called Gender Review: A FACTual Journal, it was the publication of the Foundation for the Advancement of Canadian Transsexuals (FACT), which began in January of the same year. The non-profit organization focussed on public education of gender dysphoria.
Gender Review's premier issue had an article on "Transsexual Oppression" about Montrealer Inge Stephens; information about transsexual resources; news items such as trans woman Canary Conn's appearance on the Phil Donahue show; and a listing of books and articles by and about trans people.
The founding president of FACT was Rupert Raj, who moved the organization and publication to Toronto in July 1979. Raj has gone on to be a leading Trans activist and educator in Ontario and Canada and in 2013 was inducted into the Canadian Lesbian and Gay Archives (CLGA) National Portrait Collection. His personal records are also housed at the CLGA as the Rupert Raj Trans* Collection.
The University of Victoria's Moving Trans History Forward 2016 conference's concluding event is a Founders Panel, on Sunday March 20th from 9:30 AM – noon. Raj will be one of five panellists. Unlike other conference events the Founders Panel is free and open to the public – we hope to see you there.

It was a magical day, and the Calgary Hay History Project would like to thank One Voice Chorus for focusing on our city's gay history in their artistic programming.
In other news, our colleague in queer history, Dr. Aaron Devor, the founder and academic director of the Transgender Archives at the University of Victoria, let us know that their publication, The Transgender Archives: Foundations for the Future, is now a finalist for a Lambda Literary Award in the category of LGBT Nonfiction. Click on the book link for a free PDF copy; it is an absorbing read and exploration of trans histories.
The 27th Annual Lambda Literary Awards–or the "Lammys," as they are affectionately known–kick off another record-breaking year with the announcement of the finalists. They were chosen from a record 818 submissions from 407 publishers. The winners will be announced at a gala ceremony on Monday evening, June 1, 2015 in New York City.
Lethbridge-based artist and curator Leila Armstrong, is looking to fill her Cabinet of Queeriosities with an open call for submissions. This is the third Queeriosities exhibition, celebrating LGBTQ history, identity, culture, and pride through a diverse range of subject matters and approaches. Let all of the queer artists and historians in your network know that they have until June to submit.
In closing, I will leave you with the final poem of the Club Carousel concert, sourced from the Club's September 1973 newsletter and written by the editor.

Notes: Byron Hawk, "Stitching Together Events: Of Joints, Folds, and Assemblages"
September 11, 2017 / tpasswater	/ Leave a comment
Hawk, Byron. (2013). Stitching together events: Of joints, folds, and assemblages. In Theorizing histories of rhetoric. Carbondale, IL: Southern Illinois University Press, p. 106-127.
Hawk models an approach to historiography that tends to the emergent to answer to some of the theoretical issues that arise from traditional conceptions of revisionist historiographies by turning to jazz improvisation as a way to discuss the role of networks.
Keywords: networks, historiography, histories of rhetoric, archives, methodology
"[H]istoriography requires not mourning, memory, or nostalgia but continual production, which is the only thing that can outpace dominant claims to truth by names and narratives" (p. 112).
"A networked historiography based on complexity and improvisation involves a break with the simple or casual chains of narration and story" (p. 124).
It appears I drew on a connection too early! In my previous post (see Enoch), I worked through connections I saw to Enoch's work and Clary-Lemon's, who is asking for networked-material approaches.
I am admittedly still trying to think through a complexity-theory, post-human, OOO, actor-network historiography. A distributed history answers to many of the issues Hawk outlines at the top of 110, but I'm still thinking about the central premise of generating "as many persuasive models as can possibly be fashioned" (p. 110). There is room to allow for the emergent, but I'm not sure I can put my finger on my reticence.
Alexander and Rhodes (2015) explore networks and ANT in their Techne: Queer Meditations on Writing the Self. They write
[A]ctor-network theory seems to presume a sort of intentional innocence among its nodes and has been "forcibly reminded of its non-innocence by Donna Haraway in her own much more explicitly political material semiotics. . . . We make realities, she said. They only question is: what kind of difference do we want to make?" (Law 154). We might add to that question another: How do we recognize in these webs possibilities for making difference, for making a difference? And how do we do so purposefully? (intro3b1).
The advance something more phenomenological than the flat ontological. On the Deluezean rhizome that underscores many of the texts Hawk draws from, they write:
The rhizome works flatly through lines rather than static point, but rootstock might dare ask Deleuze's "useless questions," for that reaching is part of an identity. Longing. This longing, too, is a tangled line. Indeed, we might say that a feminist rhizomatic or rootstock most resembles Rosi Braidotti's nomadic subject, a vision of subjectivity that embraces simultaneity and multiple, sometimes contradictory layers of identity (rhizome4).
I'm wondering what a feminist rootstock, or a queer phenomenological turn in the network, would ask of "as many persuasive models as can possibly be fashioned". Surely, they wouldn't lose the complexity of systems that seems to be the central idea, but perhaps ask an extra step toward towardness, maybe? Not the telos that we're avoiding here, but eros.
Desire and becoming: history as a network of erotics. Certainly Hawks use of Cohen to discuss the finding of other nodes and creating new openings feeds into the continual generation he discusses (p. 121) is extremely productive and useful to think about.
Notes: Jessica Enoch, "Releasing Hold: Feminist Historiography Without the Tradition"
September 11, 2017 / tpasswater	/ 2 Comments
Enoch, Jessica. (2013). Releasing hold: Feminist historiography without the tradition. In Theorizing histories of rhetoric. Carbondale, IL: Southern Illinois University Press, p. 58-73.
Enoch questions the dominant work in feminist rhetorical historiography to reclaim women rhetorical figures or reread canonical texts and instead poses rhetorical approaches that call attention to the rhetorical work of gendering and creating public memories about and for women.
Keywords: feminist rhetorics, historiography, histories of rhetoric, archives, methodology
"Rather than use the archive to recover women, a feminist memory studies approach to the archive prompts scholars to see it as a site that creates and shapes public memory for and about women" (p. 66).
"[T]heir work is predicated on the idea that the process of gendering is deeply rhetorical in that it relies on discursive, material, and embodied articulations and performances that create and disturb gendered distinctions, social categories, and asymmetrical power relationships" (p. 68).
I'm deeply interested in Enoch's work in articulating the rhetorical work of the archive and of archival scholarship. I can see connections readily available to some of my concerns in approaching an archival project that sits somewhere between queer theoretical work and LGBTQ histories. Particularly in how Enoch discusses how a feminist memory studies approach calls attention to the rhetorical work of remembering women—but also the rhetorical work of forgetting. She discusses the archive itself as something of scholarly inquiry and its sustained (in)attention (p. 66). These seem like promising premises. Enoch poses questions of how historiographic work is done, but also offers theoretical inroads into performing historiographic work (in part by doing a historiography of feminist rhetorical histories).
I'm reminded a bit of Jen Clary-Lemon's "Museums as Material: Experiential Landscapes and the Canadian Museum for Human Rights", which perhaps is an extension of some of this conversation, arguing that the museum is itself a textual site performing rhetorical for interrogation. She discusses rhetorical accretion as a means to examine
museum interiors and landscapes as both housing and being different "core texts" that can be seen through a lens of material rhetoric can encourage complex understandings of the layers that are formed from objects, spaces, architecture, and affect from a range of different subject positions, and disturb the bifurcation of inside/outside that emerges from considering museums as object repositories—instead opening these landscapes to see inside and outside as connected in a network of place (para. 6).
Clary-Lemon argues that the networks of accretion in museum spaces are a material part of the rhetorical work that sustains remembering and forgetting. It would pose an interesting question to bring in an approach such as hers to each archive, to ask how "material existence constructs networked meaning out of materials, durability, reproduction, and effects on text and peoples" (para. 30).
Though different approaches, I can see how each is asking for methods that call explicit attention to the rhetorical work of creating, shaping, and sustaining rhetorical memory and forgetting.
Notes: Linda Ferreira-Buckley, "Archivists with an Attitude: Rescuing the Archives from Foucault"
September 3, 2017 / tpasswater	/ Leave a comment
Ferreira-Buckley, Linda. (1999). Archivists with an attitude: Rescuing the archives from Foucault. NCTE 61(5), 577-583.
Ferreira-Buckley argues that rhetoric and composition, having a deep history of training in theories of history writing from literature, lacks training as a discipline in the standard methods of historians. Ferreira-Buckley contends that rhetoric and compostion needs to develop standard and deep practices with the archives in order to address this.
Keywords: archives, disciplinarity, histories of rhetoric, methodology
"I want to insist that traditional methodology, far from being incompatible with a progressive politics, is in fact the best agent of change" (582).
"Theoretical sophistication does not obviate the need for practical training. We lack the tools of the historians' trade; familiar with only the most obvious granting agencies, we cannot secure the money needed to carry out research agendas that are both deep and broad" (582).
This strikes me as a text that is calling for the discipline to define its expertise, or shore it up, as much as it is calling for a deeper understanding of archival practices. She opens pointing to what may be a deep rift in rhetoric and composition/writing studies's history: its connection and histories with literature. And later in the text brings up issues of funding research enterprises, which seems a symptom of that rift.
At the same time, the point that the discipline needs to take seriously the practices of the methodologies it takes up is one that needs making and reminding. The call is important to attend to methods carefully, to instruct in them carefully, and to represent them thoroughly.
I find it, perhaps, especially compelling that she writes, "I believe fully the truism that even historians who deny theory operate nonetheless from a theory" (p. 577). Though, I suppose that's on my mind after my reading of Gaillet's text. Ultimately, it is important here though to note that she discusses practice in a way that is not separable from the theories that operate within it, but that one nonetheless needs to develop an understanding of practice as a part of that. I'm not sure if it is because the time since then, or my own disposition, but all of this seems—is nonissue or obvious the right word?
I come to a sticking point around the emphasis of 'traditional methodologies.' Traditional methodologies, I have no doubt, can be agents of change—and by all means should—but I'm dubious of the suggestion that the privileged methods are the means, in the name of expertise, should be naturalized or given the superlative of 'best' in her concluding paragraph. For one, it seems arhetorical: best for who, in what context, to what ends—one's methodology need not stop at one's theory, but in the interpolation between one's theory and one's methods, which will occur in particular contexts.
And, perhaps simply: research is messy. Becky Rickly writes in "Making Sense of Making Knowledge" of the need for "our field become a little more comfortable with what Law refers to as the 'messiness' of research" (p. 266). Rickly argues that "we need to situate our methods (and our application/analysis) so that they help us understand more complicated research scenarios and questions" (p. 262). And histories and archival works are certainly messy, certainly complicated, and need methods to be situated as such.
While I understand the need for expertise as well, I'm not sure that it needs uncritically reinforced. Disciplinarity disciplines at the same time as it offers material conditions that allow for meaning making, such as funding, graduate programs, and tenure lines. Jack Halberstam writes in The Queer Art of Failure:
Being taken seriously means missing out on the chance to be frivolous, promiscuous, and irrelevant. The desire to be taken seriously is precisely what compels people to follow the tried and true paths of knowledge production around which I would like to map a few detours. Indeed terms like serious and rigorous tend to be code words, in academia as well as other contexts, for disciplinary correctness; they signal a form of training and learning that confirms what is already known according to approved methods of knowing, but they do not allow for visionary insights or flights of fancy (p. 6)
I mention this because it interrogates the assumption that the traditional modes of doing knowledge production are the best means of doing so, in some sense by asking the questions "best for who?" and also by asking "what is meant by best?"
Developing practical knowledge is important, but that practice is always situated and a rhetorical education of methods needs the work of situating to be explicit and as much a part of the research design as any other part of a method.
Notes: Lynée Lewis Gaillet, "Archival Survival: Navigating Historical Research"
September 3, 2017 September 17, 2017 / tpasswater	/ 1 Comment
Gaillet, Lynée L. (2010). Archival survival: Navigating historical research. In Ramsey, Alexis E., Wendy B. Sharer, Barbara L'Eplattenier, and Lisa S. Mastrangelo (Eds.), Working in the archives: Practical research methods for rhetoric and composition, 28-38. Carbondale, IL: Southern Illinois University Press.
Gaillet offers practical considerations of archival research in response to, and as a part of a collection edited by, L'Eplattenier's concerns about the lack of practice-oriented texts for novice and experienced archival researchers. Gaillet addresses means of preparing, accessing, and coming to working with archival materials, as well as how to put these materials within the context of one's research. Gaillet positions archival work both within the work of histories as a function of rhetoric and composition/writing studies.
Keywords: archives, historiography, histories of rhetoric, methodology
"Recovery and revision historiographical theory in rhet/comp argues that the researcher becomes a part of the project—a participant whose ethos is evident in his or her research" (p. 36).
I suppose one thing I'm thinking of, reading this, is how practical does something need to be to be practical? Gaillet mentions many factors that bind archival work to be project or archive-determined/specific, but offers a great deal of thoughtful considerations for working with archives. Is this text putting forth the phronesis or the techne of working with archives? What is this article doing with doing in archives? I'm wanting something here that I'm not so sure that I can put my finger on precisely. I suppose what I'm wanting is something to anchor the advice offered: to walk through an archival project with her, for this to put together its archival reflections in experiencing and learning from the work, or to construct the methods section that L'Eplattenier's earlier article calls for. I suppose this is somewhat of a minor thing in the grand scheme, because the text offers a fantastic way to consider many of the considerations of doing archival work. But if the method is contingent upon access to the archive, or if the means of coding and organizing data are always difficult for researchers to consider, or if one's ethos is indeed evident and participant within the research, seeing that, or in some sense doing that alongside her, situates the advice and could provide entry points into other considerations/issues/hooks in archival work.
I'm also thinking of the work that Jody Shipka has recently started asking what an archive is and who gets to determine what counts as an archive. I realize that these questions are beyond the scope of this particular piece, but they come to mind as I'm reading this, particularly when I'm thinking about her discussion of accessing an archive, the materiality of archives, and how one's ethos participates and is evident in archival research. And if I hold these questions against Jonathan Alexander and Jacqueline Rhodes's "Queer Rhetoric and the Pleasures of the Archive" and Techne: Queer Meditations on Writing the Self", or Sara Ahmed's Willful Subjects, the questions become richer for me to think about and perhaps even more vexing. Admed writes about tracing the figure of the willful child as she appears, willfully resisting her being contained in many ways: her work is in creating this archive for the willful child, or allowing her to figure herself in something we might call an archive (if the point is that the part might not want to reproduce the whole, than an archive of willfulness might not be an archive at all). Rhodes and Alexander write in "Queer rhetoric and the Pleasures of the Archive":
"Once queer subjects begin to speak…" With what do they speak? … in the tongue we find a robust metonym of our struggle, our critique, our possibility. The queer tongue, long denied its utterances, long disciplined by legislation and normalization, long in the making of critique and the construction of queer identities, of queer particularities, of queer taste. The tongue contains our histories, and our possibilities. We have variously been tongue tied and twisted. We have bitten our tongues, but also gestured tongue-in-cheek through camp, spoken in the tongues of innuendo and insinuation, longed for a mother tongue, a tongue untied, and found just as often the tongue bath, the deep-throated kissing that articulates the desires of the body in its annunciation of alternatives to your lives, your limited languages. We are these tongues, so many tongues, speaking, depressed, suppressed, repressed, but still expressed in the plays of power that twist and bite, but also lick and delight. We reserve our right to be mouthy, to spit, to eat fire, to do things that we are not supposed to do with our mouths and tongues.
What might be an archive of tongues or that are (em)bodied, or archives of activity, that are distributed, that move (to follow Morris's "Archival Queer"). I ask these not as criticisms, but just as things that I'm thinking about. Personally, I'm wanting to look at the late 80's and early 90's LGBT activism, to listen to queerness inventing (itself, possibilities, criticisms, futures, lives), how these activists used their tongues and their (em)bodied action to inscribe and be inscribed, to trace a queer rhetorical history in the face of its silencing and the violences against using their bodies.
I need to ask these methodological questions before I come to the steps that Gaillet might put forward. How and what I approach as an archive participates in the histories that come from that research, holds some bodies and voices—Rhodes and Alexander ask "With what do they speak?"—and silences others: this is a question of access, but it is also a question of the work of the archive as much as it is a question of archival work.
I suppose this long aside is just to say that I want a discussion of practice or of doing to attend to the complexities of the work. Such a thing need not be overwhelmingly theoretical, but these things are always operating together: to not address the underlying thought or experience of working in the archive leaves its essential questions. But again, the text is a wonderful foundation, I don't mean this to be at all a criticism. Thinking alongside the text and having questions about archival work is heavily framing my reading of it.
Notes: Barbara E. L'Eplattenier, "An Argument for Archival Research Methods: Thinking Beyond Methodology"
L'Eplattenier, Barbara E. (2009). An argument for archival research methods: Thinking beyond methodology. College English, 72(1), p. 67-79.
L'Eplattenier is responding in the text to the need for the discipline of rhetoric and composition/writing studies to develop practical understandings of how to do archival work. L'Eplattenier notes that the methods employed may often be too specific toward particular projects and archives, but encourages thoughtfully articulating thorough methods sections to create incremental disciplinary understandings of archival work that may allow for more generalizing.
"Finally, because archival historical work is often so unique—each archive, each situation, each study is different, with different resources, different access, different constraints—generalizing about archival work can be difficult, especially for the individual researcher" (p. 68).
"A good methods section, however we construct it, offers us details regarding the circumstances of the research and pulls back the curtain on work done. It lets us see the man behind the curtain, so to speak. It is a pedagogical model to show our students—a way to familiarize ourselves with how to 'do' histories" (p. 72).
As terms that often become vexed, fraught, or problematically reduced, I appreciated L'Eplattenier giving a clear differentiation between method and methodology. She writes, "Just as methodology allows us to theorize the goals of our research, methods allow us to contextualize the research process or the researched subject and materials" (p. 69). I was reminded of something that Derek said after our think-tank session at Cs this passed year on the middle ground between method and methodology, when he said, "Something we call methodology might travel by the name of theory. Something we call method might travel by the name of practice." It seems important to L'Eplattenier's central concern in the piece to do some of this differentiation. The importance of this differentiation allows for research to be engaged with by not only novices, but other audiences with each project more fully.
Her discussion of the work that a methods section does seems important across research methods, as they allow for interrogation of the work and allow for a conversation about how knowledge is produced disciplinarily. She writes,
An actual methods section shows us the cracks, fissures, and gaps to allow us to see the construction. It allows us to more clearly point out our blind spots, our areas we didn't realize we could research, our awareness of the fragmentary nature of archival work. If all histories are constructions, then a methods section allows us to see the building blocks of that construction. We can see which section of the foundation is strong or weak, where we can build a wing, where we can add a door (p. 74).
This in some ways reminds me a bit of a hauntology that leaves a certain openness for others to enter into and the work that hauntology does to interrogate histories as constructed, but on a different scale and talking about a different relationship. Rather than discussing the relationship between researcher and subject, L'Eplattenier discusses the relationship between the researcher, audience, and future researchers.
Provenance also seems like a compelling means to discuss the representation of evidence that speaks to the work of doing history. She writes, "By positioning the transcript with other documents and stating the difficulties with it, we did not accidentally misrepresent it or what we learned from it" (p. 73). This speaks to some of the ways that research design can be accomplished, but also makes as visible as one perhaps can the means by which a history is constructed.
Notes: Herbert W. Simons, "Requirements, Problems, and Strategies: A Theory of Persuasion for Social Movements"
August 26, 2017 September 3, 2017 / tpasswater	/ Leave a comment
Simons, Herbert W. (2001). Requirements, problems, and strategies: A theory of persuasion for social movements. In Morris Charles E. and Stephen H. Brown (eds.), Readings on the Rhetoric of Social Protest (p. 35-45). State College, PA: Strata Publishing, inc.
Giving a general theory of the rhetorics of social movements, Simons draws on sociological theory to offer a way into social movements' rhetorical considerations. The outlines Simons provides offer ways of delineating exigencies, practices, and issues the leadership of social movements often deal with.
Keywords: activism, advocacy, social movements, protest, sociology
"Designed for microscopic analysis of particular speeches, the standard tools of rhetorical criticism are ill suited for unraveling the complexity of discourse in social movements or for capturing its grand flow" (p. 35).
This text could have served me well in developing a foundational understanding of the intersections of rhetoric and activism early on, and Simons's search for theory and strategies reminds me of the Beautiful Trouble. And I think I see this text as asking for new methods for investigating rhetorics of social movements, but these methods seem to be searching for something whose claims from inquiry are generalizing and universalizing. Though maybe that is the disposition of a rhetorical criticism instead of other methodological frames that subvert these totalizing gestures.
I suppose I am a bit hung up on the enumeration strategies the text employs in creating this heuristic (in a static sense instead of an inventional one). While my own experiences in activism and advocacy work align with much of Simons's descriptions, I can't help but find the taxonimizing and leadership-centric approach binarizing and reductive.
I felt this most when reading the section on rhetorical strategies (p. 40-43), where the text identifies 'militants,' 'moderates,' and 'intermediates' as the types of strategies employed as though each were options in responding to the same exigency. Material conditions, access, privilege, lived experiences all shape the available means that shape strategies deployed. It seems there's far more nuance in what shapes a social movement's actions than the text addresses, in addition to these three being identified as the kinds of strategies.
Notes: Michelle Ballif, "Historiography as Hauntology: Paranormal Investigations into the History of Rhetoric"
August 26, 2017 / tpasswater	/ Leave a comment
Ballif, Michelle. (2013). Historiography as hauntology: Paranormal investigations into the history of rhetoric. In Ballif, Michelle (ed.), Theorizing histories of rhetoric (p. 139-153). Carbondale, IL: Southern Illinois University Press.
Ballif articulates hauntology as a historiography methodology which resists ontologizing or epistemologizing historical narratives in favor of contending with the radical singularity of events, whose excesses extend beyond 'knowing.' Hauntology signals a kind of rhetorical listening that unsettles static notions of addressor and addressee that occupy central positions in rhetorical theory, (dis)placing both.
Keywords: historiography, hauntology, histories of rhetoric, Derrida, methodology
"The ethical obligation to listen to these unfamiliars is not motivated by a desire to render them (finally) familiar, which—again—is an attempt to bury the remains (finally), but rather to render ourselves unfamiliar (as scholars and as a discipline)" (p. 140).
"To write as if a listener is to listen precisely to that which is excluded, to that which our modes of understanding have excluded, to that which—therefore—lies at the threshold of our understanding. And there, at that (non)place, at that border or threshold, the uncanny manifests itself in a continuous 'unsettling (of itself)'" (p. 152-153).
I'm thinking a lot about Steedman's "Something She Called a Fever: Michelet, Derrida, and Dust," in which she takes up some of the central claims of decentering time in historiography and archival methods. The archive, for Steedman, has no beginning and cannot have a beginning—each document is captured "in medias res" with so much beyond or absent from the archive that claims at closure of time become fraught (1175). She writes:
Contemplating Everything, the historian must start somewhere, but starting is a different thing from originating, or even from beginning. And while there is closure in historical writing, and historians do bring their arguments and books to a conclusion, there is no End—cannot be an End, for we are still in it, the great, slow-moving Everything (1177).
I'm thinking too of Rickert's work in Ambient Rhetoric on chora—which, at once, refers toward invention or origination but also toward its own receding from that invention (62-63). The radical singularity of an event toward some of this: by placing the addressor as somehow central toward rhetorical action—and in this case, representing histories of rhetoric—invents, and withdraws the work of its invention, origination and imposes linearity of time. A hauntology unsettles this and muddles the addressivity of speakers and events.
Queer rhetorics seems to, if tacitly, work toward such hauntology—if nothing else than by understanding queerness as historically being that which haunts heterosexual presents/presence (a la Foucault History of Sexuality and Sedgwick Epistemology of the Closet). Morris's "Archival Queer" and Alexander and Rhodes's "Queer Rhetorics and the Pleasures of the Archive" talk about queer archives as restlessly moving and pushing against boundedness of heterosexual spatiotemporalities in ways that seem attentive to this radical singularity and the both absence and presence of excesses in such work.
What I especially find interesting is the disciplinarity focus of hauntology. Hauntology resists modes of knowing and others the researcher and the field. This ethical gesture of listening acknowledges our unknowing and resists the creation of grand narratives—it seems especially interesting to be thinking of this so close to the celebration of CCR's 20th anniversary as a program and hearing the narratives created, documented, and told at that celebration.

Daniel, James Rushing. (2016). The event that we are: Ontology, rhetorical agency, and Alain Badiou. Philosophy & Rhetoric, 49(3), 254–276.
Daniel offers Badiou's concept of the event to rethink the discipline's considerations of relativism and flat ontologies.
Keywords: agency, materiality, ontology, rhetoric, rhetorical theory
"While these approaches suggest that agency is not a linear means of enacting change but rather a distributed, emergent process, they nevertheless retain the notion of responsibility and with it the value of human choice. Many following object-oriented, materialist, or ecological models are accordingly caught in such a bind, espousing a model of agency that minimizes the role of the human subject and yet attributes to the human subject a unique significance" (p. 256-57).
"Badiou is not concerned with the consequentiality of things but rather with sets, discrete groupings of mathematical objects that concern spheres of human existence Badiou terms 'situations' or 'worlds.' Unlike the materialist approaches of contemporary rhetoric that seek to understand the role of objects within a flat ontological system, Badiou's perspective allows for the consideration of the composition of discrete spheres of ontological being and the ways in which such spheres are disrupted and transformed by events" (p. 259).
Notes: Elizabeth Wingrove, "blah blah WOMEN blah blah EQUALITY blah blah DIFFERENCE"
Wingrove, Elizabeth. (2016). blah Blah WOMEN Blah Blah EQUALITY Blah Blah DIFFERENCE. Philosophy & Rhetoric, 49(4), 408-419.
Wingrove argues, within a Rancièrean perspective, that women's 'dissensus' or assertions of injustice are tied and muted by a grammatical and historical police order.
Keywords: feminism, feminist rhetorics, feminist theory, rhetoric, writing studies
"[W]omen's enactments of equality might remain so encased in the "blah blah blahs" of the gender order that their ability to disrupt the dogged certainties of patriarchal ideology remains forever diminished" (p. 409).
"The consequence, ultimately, is that within the Rancièrean framework, feminist 'dissensus' must remain muted, not by the unintelligibility (always potentially productive) of women's 'noise' but by the challenge of 'putting two worlds in one and the same world'… when both worlds are already lived, signed, and fabricated through the stuff of gender and the differences it presumes and reproduces. It is precisely this intertwining of worlds that risks emasculating feminist assertions of wrong, because we've already heard it all before: we've always lived in that world" (p. 417).

Building an Arsenal to Fight Cancer
Academic pharmacy is engaged in biomedical and cancer research that will produce new tools to prevent and detect disease, better treatments and improved survival rates for cancer patients that lead to longer lifespans. Below are just some of the ways that pharmacy faculty are contributing to the fight against cancer.
Two Researchers at UB Take Aim at Cancer with New Treatments
Dr. Dhaval Shah has spent the past three years searching for the Holy Grail of medicine: a cure for cancer. Shah, an assistant professor in the University at Buffalo School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, leads cutting-edge research focused on protein therapeutics and the engineering of proteins for medical use.
While he hasn't found cancer's cure, Shah has made progress in the way the disease is treated. His efforts have helped advance development of antibody-drug conjugates (ADC), a novel molecule that can target cancer cells directly, eliminating the toxic side effects of traditional chemotherapy.
These antibodies act as a Trojan horse, targeting receptors specific to cancer cells. When the ADCs reach the tumor, the molecules release the drugs hidden inside, which are then free to break the DNA within the cancer cells. But the drugs are only released if the ADCs reach their target, which prevents the chemotherapy treatment from harming healthy cells.
Shah's study of ADCs caught the attention of Boston-based cancer drug developer Oncolinx. In the early stages of the startup, its founders Sourav Sinha and Riley Ennis reached out to Shah for guidance on merging ADCs with cancer medication. A mutual interest in protein therapeutics led Shah to eventually join the company as a scientific adviser.
"When you see someone doing the same science as yourself, you want to help them out," says Shah. "Talking to people about science is what makes you a good scientist. The more I talk to like-minded people, the better my science becomes."
The concept of targeted cancer treatment has existed for more than decade, but the technology to make such a drug was largely developed within the past five years, Shah says. There are now three ADCs approved for use, while another 50 are undergoing clinical trials.
Dr. Joseph Balthasar, professor and associate dean for research in the School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, is also taking aim at cancer through research that will test new strategies for improving the delivery of potent toxins to cancer cells. The study "Catch and Release Immunotoxins: CAR-Bombs for Cancer," led by Balthasar, received a five-year $1.8 million grant from the National Cancer Institute to support research that aims to use an untested method of delivering antibodies to target colon cancer cells that, if effective, could be applied to nearly any type of cancer.
"The strategy that we are pursuing is a 'platform approach' that may be applied to many different types of cancer," says Balthasar, also director of the UB Center for Protein Therapeutics. "If our work is successful, we may be able to move forward to develop a panel of treatments, providing increased safety and efficacy for many cancer patients."
Although advances have been made in the treatment of cancer with surgery, radiation and chemotherapy, there is a critical need to develop novel approaches with promise for improved selectivity, potency and efficacy, Balthasar said.
He will test a new treatment strategy that employs "catch-and-release" antibodies that are bound to powerful toxins and cell-penetrating peptides. These molecules target and bind to cancer cells, allowing for the efficient release of toxins into the cell's cytoplasm—the fluid that fills a cell.
Preliminary data gathered to access the binding, toxicity and pharmacokinetics—how the body affects a drug—of the antibody support the feasibility of the method as a viable form of treatment, Balthasar said.
Revolutionary Approach for Treating Glioblastoma Works with Human Cells
Researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill have made another advance in the development of an effective treatment for glioblastoma, a common and aggressive brain cancer. The work, published in the Feb. 1 issue of Science Translational Medicine, describes how human stem cells, made from human skin cells, can hunt down and kill human brain cancer, a critical and monumental step toward clinical trials—and real treatment.
Last year, the UNC–Chapel Hill team, led by Dr. Shawn Hingtgen, an assistant professor in the Eshelman School of Pharmacy and member of the Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center, used the technology to convert mouse skin cells to stem cells that could hone in on and kill human brain cancer, increasing time of survival 160 to 220 percent, depending on the tumor type. Now, they not only show that the technique works with human cells but also works quickly enough to help patients, whose median survival is less than 18 months and chance of surviving beyond two years is 30 percent.
"Speed is essential," Hingtgen said. "It used to take weeks to convert human skin cells to stem cells. But brain cancer patients don't have weeks and months to wait for us to generate these therapies. The new process we developed to create these stem cells is fast enough and simple enough to be used to treat a patient."
Surgery, radiation and chemotherapy are the standard of care for glioblastoma, and that hasn't changed in three decades. In months, the tumor comes back in almost every single patient, invariably sending tiny tendrils out into the surrounding brain tissue. Drugs can't reach them, and surgeons can't see them, so it's almost impossible to remove all of the cancer, explained Dr. Ryan Miller, a coauthor of the study and neuropathologist at UNC Hospitals and associate professor at the UNC School of Medicine.
UNE Professor's Breast Cancer Detection Marker Garners National Attention
Dr. Srinidi Mohan, assistant professor in the , received a provisional patent for his breast cancer early detection and disease monitoring method, which uses a marker in the blood to detect the presence of highly aggressive tumors and help track cancer growth. His groundbreaking research garnered attention from national media outlets, including the Associated Press, Hearst and the Portland Press Herald.
"I was simply in the right place at the right time," Mohan said, discussing how he stumbled upon this finding in 2014 while studying nutritional supplements. He found that the marker Nw-hydroxy-L-Arginine (NOHA) was both a sensitive and reliable indicator for estrogen receptor-negative (ER–) tumors, found in the most aggressive types of breast cancer.
Mohan, who had never previously studied breast cancer, began testing the marker on cell lines of African-Americans, Caucasians, Jews, Asians and Hispanics to see if it could detect tumor presence across disparate ethnicities. In each case, he found that the results aligned with his hypothesis: low levels of NOHA in the blood are consistent with ER– tumor presence.
Research Finds Access Barriers to Pharmaceutical Care for Those at Risk of Breast Cancer
Research led by Dr. Shelley I. White-Means, professor of clinical pharmacy at the University of Tennessee College of Pharmacy, has discovered that the nation's highest racial disparity in breast cancer mortality exists in Memphis. The work is part two of a study to gain understanding of reasons for the large breast cancer mortality disparity between African-American and White women who live in Memphis.
In this study, Memphis oncologists indicated that the transportation infrastructure and geographical access to services, in part, underscore this disparity trend because low-income minority residents face barriers to obtaining services that are primarily available in distant areas of the city. Oncologists noted that high quality breast care facilities and medical providers are not located in neighborhoods that are primarily African-American. The researchers suggest that new models for healthcare delivery may be needed in order to address this finding.
How does this relate to the College of Pharmacy? In contrast to resources that are specifically designed for screening and treatment of breast cancer, pharmacy services are widely available in many of the neighborhoods where low-income African-Americans live. Nonetheless, if there are access barriers to other types of medical care services (i.e., screening and treatment of breast cancer), then there are access barriers to pharmaceutical care. This is because access to prescription medications is highly dependent on access and use of services provided by non-pharmacists.
Startup Advances Three-In-One Cancer Drug Rooted at UW-Madison
Co-D Therapeutics, a University of Wisconsin–Madison spinoff, is developing a three-drug cocktail to battle a wide range of cancers. The first target for Co-D is angiosarcoma, a rare and lethal cancer that arises from blood vessels.
The triple-threat product, Triolimus, was invented by two of Co-D's co-founders, chief scientific officer Dr. Glen Kwon, professor of pharmaceutical science at UW–Madison School of Pharmacy, and chief medical officer Dr. Kevin Kozak, a radiation oncologist at Mercy Health System in Janesville, Wisc.
The Triolimus package is a double-layer structure called a micelle that is only 40 nanometers in diameter—about 1/200 the diameter of a human hair. The company's submicroscopic package contains paclitaxel, a standard cancer drug, combined with two other drugs designed to reduce the resistance that often develops against chemotherapy drugs.
Although paclitaxel and related cancer drugs derived from the Pacific yew tree are in widespread use, they usually require a toxic solvent that can cause dangerous anaphylactic shock in patients. The micelle technology eliminates the solvent and allows the simultaneous administration of other insoluble drugs.
The result is a single, apparently safe package that can carry multiple drugs and, by eliminating the toxic solvents, allows for increased dosages. The carrier technology is key to these benefits, Kwon said. "The micelle can safely deliver a really potent three-drug combination, even though all of them are insoluble in water."
Research in an animal model of angioscarcoma showed a better outcome from the triple-drug Triolimus than for a micelle carrying paclitaxel alone. In both cases, the micelle permitted a paclitaxel dose three times above the standard dose.
OSU Guo Awarded Prestigious NIH Grant
Dr. Peixuan Guo, Sylvan G. Frank Endowed Chair in Pharmaceutics and Drug Delivery Systems at The Ohio State University College of Pharmacy, has been awarded a $2.79 million grant from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Alliance for Nanotechnology in Cancer, part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), to identify and optimize RNA nanoparticles for cancer targeting and treatment. Guo hopes to someday promote RNA nanoparticles as a new generation of drugs for the treatment of cancers.
RNA nanotechnology has progressed rapidly during the past several years. This nanotechnology includes the integration of multiple functional modules into one nanoparticle, of which the scaffolds, ligands, therapeutics and regulators can be composed of RNA. Dr. Guo proved the concept of RNA nanotechnology in 1998 by showing that RNA dimers, trimers and hexamers can be constructed by bottom-up assembly of modified nature RNA. He published his findings in Molecular Cell and was featured in .
Guo's lab has constructed RNA nanoparticles of diverse size, shape and stoichiometry displaying high chemical and thermodynamic stability, and has demonstrated their ability to harbor different functional groups. The lab is currently working to characterize the behavior of RNA nanoparticles in vitro and in vivo, with a goal to improve the efficiency for specific cell targeting, internalization and intracellular trafficking, favorable bio-distribution without entrapment in liver, endosome escape, and tumor regression.
Guo's study aims to dissect the intracellular pathways taken by RNA nanoparticles and enhance their endosome escape capabilities; inspect the pharmacokinetics pharmacodynamics and bio-distribution of RNA nanoparticles; and evaluate the immune responses of RNA nanoparticles to minimize non-specific side effects. Previously, they reported that the immune response of RNA nanoparticles are size, shape and sequence dependent. They can make the RNA nanoparticles non-immunogenic, or highly immunogenic to serve as vaccine adjuvants or reagents in cancer immunotherapy.
Ovarian Cancer Target Molecule May Be Key to Blocking its Spread
Blocking a protein found on the surface of ovarian cancer cells could prevent or reduce the spread of the disease to other organs, according to new research at the University of Illinois at Chicago.
"The greatest barrier to our ability to treat cancer in this stage is that we know very little about the molecules that cause the disease to spread," said Dr. Maria Barbolina, associate professor of biopharmaceutical sciences and lead researcher of the study. "The goal of our research is to identify key molecules that govern metastasis and use them as targets for the development of new drugs."
Barbolina and her colleagues hypothesized that biomolecules successfully targeted with drugs in other cancers might also be targets in metastatic ovarian cancer. In earlier research, Barbolina discovered that a fractalkine receptor—a protein found on the cell surface—is expressed in the majority of ovarian cancer cases. It could help the cancer spread to other organs throughout the body when stimulated by another protein that binds to it.

$400 MILLION INVESTED IN REGIONAL FLOOD MANAGEMENT SINCE MAJOR FLOODING JUNE 21, 1997
Many lives changed drastically in the Milwaukee area when ten inches of rain fell in 30 hours in 1997, resulting in $53 million in damage. Another flash flood occurred in 1998, damaging more than 3,500 homes and destroying three.
Those events kicked flood reduction efforts into high gear in the region and despite monumental progress and $400 million invested to correct problems, significant work remains in 2017. More than 660 homes remain in the floodplain in the Kinnickinnic River Watershed alone.
1997 National Weather Service Flooding Report
"Interstate 43 in extreme northern Milwaukee county was closed from around 0500CST to 1900CST in the evening. At one point the water depth on the road was 12 feet! Firefighters in rescue boats, while kneeling, managed to touch the bottom of the County Line Road overpass on I-43! In Milwaukee, a sewer line collapsed in front of the Harley Davidson Motorcycle plant, resulting in a sinkhole 30 feet deep and 60 feet wide."
"The Milwaukee Brewers baseball game scheduled for the evening hours was canceled due to water flooding the playing field to a depth of 2 to 3 feet. The last time this happened was in 1986. A portion of a bluff collapsed in Juneau Park along the Lake Michigan shoreline after soils became saturated. For the first time in memory, Brown Deer and Green Bay roads in the city of Brown Deer flooded, and fish were observed to be swimming on these roads!"
The Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District (MMSD) has a long list of flood management projects that are completed, under design or in the planning stages. READ MORE.

El quítxua de Cajamarca () és una varietat del quítxua parlat aïlladament en les parts altes occidentals de la província de Cajamarca (districtes de Cajamarca, Baños del Inca i Chetilla). És mútuament intel·ligible amb el quítxua de Lambayeque. És part de la branca quítxua perifèrica o quítxua II.

Característiques
Aquesta llengua mai va ser parlada a tota la regió; no obstant això, està probablement en franca reculada en relació al castellà: només es conserva en municipalitats rurals com Chetilla o Porcón, i encara en aquestes zones els nens han començat a parlar exclusivament en castellà. Donada a la mala reputació de llengua indígena, les dades censals són molt més baixos que les xifres reals, per la qual cosa la quantitat de parlants varia ens 10 i 30 mil usuaris.

El quítxua de Cajamarca va retenir del protoquítxua moltes característiques com la diferenciació entre les consonants africades retroflexa  i postalveolar  i entre les fricatives alveolar  i postalveolar . L'aspirada  s'ha silenciat. Com en altres variants, el plural és marcat amb el sufix -llapa.

Félix Quesada va publicar la primera gramàtica i el primer diccionari de quítxua cajamarquino en 1976 per iniciativa del govern militar. Posteriorment, David Coombs va fer treball de camp segons SIL International. Per iniciativa seva es va editar una traducció del Nou Testament en 2005. Existeix a més l'Acadèmia Regional del quítxua en Cajamarca. Aïlladament, el quítxua cajamarquino, recentment, es va dictar com a curs escolar.

L'ortografia usada per SIL no concorda completament amb l'alfabet oficial: És pentavocalista i fonemiza la sonorització de les consonants oclusives /p, t, k/ després de la nasal alveolar /n/.

Fonologia
Té tres vocals: /a, i, u/

Q: Hibernate OneToOne behaving like ManyToOne I have these classes:
public class Person {

    @Id
    private int personId;

    @OneToOne
    private SomeOtherId someOtherId;
}

public class SomeOtherId {
     @Id
     private int someId;

     // other fields
}

I did this:
Person person1 = new Person(1);
SomeOtherId someOtherId = new SomeOtherId(100);
person1.setSomeOtherId(someOtherId);
//Update the database so that both the above entities are persisted

Person person2 = new Person(2);
person2.setSomeOtherId(someOtherId);
//Update the database so that person2 is persisted

It all works! And it assigns someOtherId to both the person entities which it shouldn't as the relationship is OneToOne. Each person has to have a unique SomeOtherId. In database also, I can see a single entity for SomeOtherId and id of that mapped to two Persons.
What am I missing here?

A: You have to add a @JoinColumn and set the unique attribute to true

room interiorInterior design is the art and science of improving the interiors, sometimes including the exterior, of an area or building, to achieve a wholesome and more aesthetically satisfying environment for the end customer. An inside designer is a person who plans, researches, coordinates, and manages such projects. Home design is a multifaceted occupation that includes conceptual development, space planning, site inspections, programming, research, communicating with the stakeholders of the project, structure management, and execution of the design.Home design is the process of shaping the knowledge of interior space, through the manipulation of spatial volume level as well as surface treatment for the betterment of individual functionality.In the past, interiors were put instinctively as a part of the process of creating together.The profession of interior design has been a consequence of the development of society and the complex architecture that has resulted from the development of professional processes. The quest for effective use of space, individual well-being and functional design has contributed to the development of the contemporary home design profession. The occupation of interior design is distinct and specific from the role of Interior Decorator, a term found in the US. The word is less common in the UK where the profession of interior design continues to be unregulated and therefore, strictly speaking, not yet an occupation officially.In ancient India, architects used to work as interior designers. This can be seen from the recommendations of Vishwakarma the architect - one of the gods in Indian mythology. Additionally, the sculptures depicting traditional events and texts are seen in palaces built in 17th century India.In traditional Egypt, "soul homes" or models of houses were positioned in tombs as receptacles for food offerings. From these, you'll be able to discern information regarding the inside design of different residences throughout the different Egyptian dynasties, such as changes in air flow, porticoes, columns, loggias, home windows, and doors.Throughout the 18th and 17th century and in to the early on 19th century, interior decoration was the matter of the homemaker, or an used upholsterer or craftsman who would recommend on the artistic style for an interior space. Architects would also make use of artisans or craftsmen to complete home design for his or her structures. Color is a powerful design tool in decorating, and home design which is the fine art of composition, and coordinates colors to generate stylish system alongside one another.Interior designers have knowledge about colors to understand psychological effects, and meaning of each color to create suitable combinations for every single place. Combining Color also provides certain mind-set, and has positive and negative effects. It creates a available room feel more calm, cheerful, comfortable or dramatic. It makes a tiny room seem larger or smaller also. So that it is the inside designer profession to choose appropriate colors for a place in a way people want to look and feel in the space.Interior designers must be skilled to be able to produce interior conditions that are practical highly, safe, and adhere to building codes, regulations and ADA requirements. They go beyond the selection of color palettes and furnishings and apply their knowledge to the introduction of construction documents, occupancy loads, healthcare regulations and sustainable design principles, as well as the coordination and management of professional services including mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and life safety--all to ensure that people can live, learn or work within an innocuous environment that is aesthetically satisfying also.Someone may decide to concentrate and develop technological knowledge specific to 1 type or portion of interior design, such as domestic design, commercial design, hospitality design, medical care design, widespread design, exhibition design, furniture design, and spatial branding. Interior design is a creative vocation that is new relatively, constantly evolving, and perplexing to the general public often. It isn't an artistic pursuit and depends on research from many fields to provide a well-trained knowledge of how people are influenced by their environments.

For anyone who's ever done a Read-A-Thon knows it can get kind of crazy. I participated in Booktube-A-Thon this year and I managed to finish 3 books and start a 4th in just that single week. And I read some truly wonderful books. The downside was I had work for 6 days so I didn't feel like I could really give it my all.
But I'm going to have some serious downtime between the 4th-7th of September so I thought I should do my own Read-A-Thon.
I figured there should be some kind of theme for my Read-A-Thon so I started looking through my bookshelf and TBR and I found I have some series I can finish just by reading one or two books. So that's my challenge for this 4 day Read-A-Thon. Finish as many series as possible.
Wayfarer by Alexandra Bracken. The last book in the Passenger duality which I've been putting off reading for the past half year. Now is the time!
My plan is to vlog during this but we'll see how that goes. No promises! Haha.
I'm sooo looking forward to September. I have a feeling this will be really fun!

Comfort Food Yields to Lighter, Seasonal Flavors at 1770 House
Hannah Selinger
Chef Michael Rozzi at the 1770 House in East Hampton. Doug Young photo
We may only just be entering the moment of spring weather, but, at East Hampton's 1770 House, spring has unquestionably sprung. Just ask chef Michael Rozzi, who is in the thick of his seasonal menu reinvention. "We're really in this transition period," he said. "Dishes are changing daily. We're going from winter comfort to cleaner, lighter."
Cleaner and lighter means a focus on emerging vegetables, and entrée accompaniments that are decidedly seasonal. With the East End's challenging maritime climate, fresh local produce arrives late, with the first asparagus harvest often not appearing until mid-to-late May (depending on the season). That means that locally focused chefs, like Rozzi, must find a way to introduce the season to spring-hungry diners without veering too far from the restaurant's ethos of eating local.
"We try to buy the best product that we possibly can," he said. "That's one of the challenges of the early spring: getting a jump on it. We take what we san and spread it throughout the menu. If I find something I like, I run it."
So what's new to the menu at the 1770 House right now? Rozzi confesses a personal passion for the chilled sweat pea soup. Made with a vegetable stock, the soup is served with a fresh, salty, and crunchy salad of coppa and pea shoots. One is meant to drag the salad-filled spoon across the soup, for a more complete bite, a compelling combination of flavors that invokes that old classic, split pea soup. "It's such the flavor of spring," he said. "There's nothing adulterating the flavor.
Michael Rozzi's chilled pea soup. Kathryn G. Menu photo
One running theme on the 1770 House spring menu is allium — the genus of flowering plants that includes all species of onions, scallions, shallots, and garlic. Rozzi features young alliums in many of his dishes. Spring onions are more tender and mild than their late-season cousins, and so the flavor is far more delicate. Recognizing this, Rozzi pairs them with other delicate foods, like oysters. "I fell in love with these wild, flowering onions," he said. "Spring onions and spring garlic are a big portion of what I do."
The flowering onions that Rozzi uses are similar to a scallion, with white, bell-like, edible flowers. Wanting to use the flowers with his food, he turned them, along with the onions themselves, into a mignonette for oysters on the half shell, a soft, floral replacement for the traditional shallot.
An arugula salad with red bunching onions is also new to the menu this season. Rozzi takes the onions and chars them on the plancha, achieving a sweet, smoky note. The arugula is tossed with crunchy snap peas and radishes and sunchokes that have been crisped in oil, while the onions and Sherry vinegar become "this really round, oniony dressing."
Other newcomers to the seasonal menu include a hand-made artichoke ravioli with bacon; a fennel pollen risotto with asparagus (which can be ordered either as an appetizer or as an entrée); Scottish salmon served with leeks and watercress; a buckwheat späetzle with chicken, Thumbelina carrots, and ramp pesto; and steak with escarole and maitake mushrooms. Rozzi is dedicated, he said, to "pure and simple and really powerful flavors in the spring. All these flavors are huge. Ramps: gigantic. Artichokes. Asparagus."
The changing menu is also fueled by a clientele that encourages change and seasonality. "Thank goodness we have the local palate that we have," Rozzi said. "That has evolved, like the rest of the area. "A lot of our year-round clientele have an expectation of variety." Regulars to the 1770 House come, in part, because they know that the menu will reflect changes in seasons, and that the food on the menu comes from such esteemed places as Good Water Farms, Balsam Farms, Milk Pail, and Mecox Bay Dairy. The result is a menu simultaneously steeped in tradition — the restaurant itself dates back to 1942 — and constantly in flux. Like a shark, it remains in motion, which is why it feels so alive.
Expect, as Rozzi said, bright and green flavors, as we move fully into the warmer months. "Everything is green right now," he said. "It's sort of the color of spring."

Q: Eclipse PHP SIGSEGV When Opening Project File Eclipse is crashing every time when I attempt to open a newly created project file and I've done everything I can think of. This only happened after updating my system (Manjaro) and now even reinstalling eclipse and deleting all the files, I can find pertenent to eclipse it is still doing it.
It is very frustrating and I can't really work until this issue is fixed. Thanks in advance. I'm trying to open the files via the PHP Explorer View as well as the Navigator view (built into eclipse).
Eclipse Version: 4.6.1.
Java Version:
openjdk version "1.8.0_112"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_112-b15)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.112-b15, mixed mode)
I've tried to revert eclipse back to the previous 4.6.0 but the issue still persists.
Here is the start of the crash log:
#
# A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:
#
#  SIGSEGV (0xb) at pc=0x00007f04a8da6cc6, pid=26036, tid=0x00007f054f909700
#
# JRE version: OpenJDK Runtime Environment (8.0_112-b15) (build 1.8.0_112-b15)
# Java VM: OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (25.112-b15 mixed mode linux-amd64 compressed oops)
# Problematic frame:
# C  [libgtk-3.so.0+0x173cc6]
#
# Core dump written. Default location: /home/taylor/core or core.26036
#
# If you would like to submit a bug report, please visit:
#   http://bugreport.java.com/bugreport/crash.jsp
# The crash happened outside the Java Virtual Machine in native code.
# See problematic frame for where to report the bug.
#

The rest of the log is very long, and I can link it if needed but the character limit is not beg enough.

A: Sorry, this is not an answer, is a comment but I've not enough reputation to make it.
I have the same problem with Eclipse Neon 4.6 JEE, Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 1.8.0_112, Manjaro recently updated and libgtk-3.so.0+0x173cc6 library.
To avoid being stopped you can try, temporaly, to run Eclipse with GTK2:

*

*Verify you have gtk2 installed

*Edit eclipse.ini and add:
--launcher.GTK_version

Iconic Three Lions Up For Grabs In Charity Fundraiser For Broughton House
Three lions which represent a slice of local history are up for grabs in a school charity raffle being held to raise funds for Broughton House Veteran Care Village.
The wrought iron lions are thought to have sat proudly on the gateposts at the entrance to The Heys School in Prestwich, Greater Manchester, since it was built in the 1930s.
Earlier this year, the school began a new era as an academy after becoming part of the Rowan Learning Trust. The switch heralded a change of name from Prestwich Arts College and the adoption of the Manchester Bee as its new symbol.
The trust is investing £1m on a programme of external and internal improvements, including new electronic gates to replace the old ones.
Now the lions are being offered as prizes in a raffle which is being held to raise money for Broughton House, which is the school's chosen charity.
The Prestwich Arts College sign is also being offered as a prize in the draw.
Tickets to enter the draw cost £10 and are available to buy until Friday, December 4. The winners will be announced the following week.
The raffle marks the launch of the Heys in the Community initiative, which will see the school support local organisations and good causes through donations and volunteering.
Assistant head teacher Phil Taylor said: "Having entered the next phase of our journey with our new identity as The Heys School, raffling off the lions and the sign seems a nice way to mark the end of one era and the start of a new one.
"Thousands of people have passed by the school on Heys Road over the years and seen the sign and the lions, and we know there are many former pupils and staff who would love a memento of their time with us.
"The lions have been repainted several times over the years and would look good in someone's garden or on display in their home.
"It's great to be able to use a little bit of our school's history to support such a worthy cause as Broughton House."
Broughton House is currently undergoing a £13m redevelopment which will see the creation of the UK's first Veteran Care Village.
Phil added: "As Broughton House continues to raise funds for its future, it's nice to use some of our history to help the home achieve its goals."
The school has raised money for Broughton House through a series of activities during 2020, including events held remotely when the school was closed because of the pandemic.
In addition, pupils were assigned pen pals at the home and wrote letters to the veterans to raise their spirits during the first lockdown.
Laura Carr, community and events fundraiser at Broughton House, said: "We are extremely grateful for the continued support of The Heys School and are proud to be their chosen charity.
"Staff and students have been incredible at raising funds through various events such as the sponsored silence, a steps challenge and now a raffle of their iconic lions.
"We are looking forward to seeing how much this raises and appreciate the ongoing kindness of the school."

Ultius website represents the kind of semi-blog one. It is really small. But there is everything included. The field of occupation is quite big as well. Let's go into detail with this Ultius.com review.
The company of writing essays along with every other thing as this one having such a blog like interface is strange. To keep up with all the orders and maintain nice support a wholesome web site is simply a must. There is none here and it is quite strange. The site is worked out not very well also. Essay help or this kind of assistance is simply absent at all.
Ultius.com website of writing an essay and more has a bunch of services to offer. Among them are essays, business writing, academic writing, editing and such. Ultius writings have nice quality in general. The writer staff is quite qualified. But in terms of keeping up with the work and giving information to clients not everything is considered and worked out perfectly.
The 'Order' directory is easy to find. It takes quite a while for it to be downloaded though. Everything is clear there. Ultius.com reviews praise that feature. But if you look deeper, it seems even too clear. Some important points about the order are omitted. And the absence of the possibility to add files concerning the order is quite a big minus for Ultius Inc.
Ultius company does not have a very serious image right after seeing its strangely short site. But everything gets even more interesting after seeing a simple price for writing an essay. Even if it is written by a PhD, the price for it is still beyond understanding. It is quite questionable whether it is ordered there at all. If so, it is strange then. It is good that there is no essay help there. Otherwise it would be terrifying to know the price for it. The quality of writing is generally normal, but really is not up to that price range at all.
What can you say about Ultius Inc customer support when it is not even a site in a whole. The information there is short and not very persuasive. And the support is none. Due to the prices for simple writing essays it must be a frightening experience to order something and wait impatiently whether it will come or not after all. Ultius.com reviews considers this to be a very important point for you to consider before making an order there. The blog instead of site does not even present a case to speak about its usability. The information and amount of services are both severely limited due to the format of it.
The same story is with discounts. After being shocked seeing all the crazy prices, it seemed that maybe some discounts will make that pill taste not that bitter. There is no discount program. Even the presence of the smallest ones draws some attention of clients. The absence of it seems quite strange for Ultius writings if they want to be taken seriously. All the other Ultius reviews state this interesting "feature" as well.
Ultius organization has some nice writers around and quality writing is their undeniable feature. It is bad that the prices are that high that it is even scary to look at them for an average user. Not to speak about making an order at all of course. Ultius writing review is not great. The site is small, the information section is limited. It is hard to make something out of it at all.

Triangle businesses see boom as World Cup fans cheer on USA
by: Mariah Ellis
Posted: Nov 30, 2022 / 04:47 AM EST
Updated: Nov 30, 2022 / 04:47 AM EST
RALEIGH, N.C. (WNCN) — You could probably hear the cheers roaring across the Triangle Tuesday afternoon as the U.S. team advanced in the World Cup. The team has made their way to the knockout round after a 1-0 victory over Iran.
"We're excited that we advanced and we're ready for the next round because we think we can advance further," said Drew Sprague who had cheered on the team with friends and a large crowd at the London Bridge Pub in downtown Raleigh.
Fans at the pub weren't only supporting the USA.
Michael Hershman who also came to the London Bridge Pub said, "We come here for every England game. Every time England is in a major tournament, the World Cup, this is the place to be." Hershman cheered with his friends as England came through with a win, also.
Hershman said there's been a few surprises during the World Cup, including losses from both Germany and Argentina that have left soccer fans sitting on the edge of their seats.
He added, "It was a bit of a surprise that we didn't beat the USA." Days ago, England and the USA had tied 0-0.
Manager at the London Bridge Pub, Jessica Kirkpatrick, said they have been selling tickets for fans who want to ensure they can get a spot inside. Kirkpatrick said most games have brought crowds to capacity at the pub and have resulted in a boom in business.
"Even if people don't have tickets, there's been a line down the block all week, every day, even the 5 a.m. matches," Kirkpatrick said.
Kirkpatrick said the business has opened up early and done what they can to accommodate crowds wishing to watch the World Cup. Even through the wild rush, Kirkpatrick said, "It's so crazy, but you know what, the vibe is great. Everyone is having so much fun and we just love it!"
It's a similar experience for Kevin Walker who has also opened his pub—The Winchester Pub and Bottle Shop—during earlier hours and days the business is typically closed.
Walker, who played soccer professionally and had been dorm mates with U.S. Coach Gregg Berhalter at UNC in the '90s, said he couldn't be more proud of his friend.
"They played their hearts out, they looked crisp, they're passing, they're moving the ball well, everyone on the team was working, they were working with each other… I was really impressed," Berhalter said.
Walker said the World Cup is unique in that it not only happens every four years, but it also brings fans of all kinds together.
"We are a soccer pub so unlike some places, we show soccer all the time. The World Cup is the tip of the Iceberg," Walker said. "The World Cup is truly the biggest event in the soccer world that there is."
Both business plan to be open when the U.S. team faces the Netherlands on Saturday at 10 a.m. Fans believe it will be a big game and a tough one, too.

Thai Government Savings Bank's SMEs Trust Fund launches $44m investment vehicles
By Nguyen Thi Bich Ngoc
Thailand's Government Savings Bank (GSB), with support from the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET), has officially launched two investment vehicles at 1.5 billion baht (more than $44 million) to invest in the country's small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
These are the sub-funds of the SMEs Private Equity Trust Fund that the state-owned bank proposed earlier in 2016.
DEALSTREETASIA exclusively reported in April this year that Singapore-based early stage venture capital firm Expara had been selected as manager for the Trust Fund's first 500 million baht sub-fund.
Meanwhile, another 1 billion baht unit managed by a Thai firm called Premier Advisory Group Co, was introduced during an announcement ceremony recently, local media reported.
Krungthai Asset Management acts as trustee for both funds.
GSB had said it would continue to raise capital for the Trust Fund until it reached 2 billion baht to invest in startups and SMEs serving critical sectors.
The 500 million baht fund is already investing some 280 million baht into nine companies, some of which are drone manufacturers.
Douglas Abrams, managing director of Expara, had revealed the establishment of Expara Thailand to manage GSB's first sub fund, which is expected to be active for 4-5 years.
The SMEs Private Equity Trust Fund, which will be 20 per cent supported by SET, might make a funding round of up to 100 million baht in exchange for a maximum 49 per cent equity stake in a startup.
Working in collaboration with SET, the Trust Fund expects to exit when the companies are listed on the bourse, or get to a mature stage when founders want to buy back their shares.
SET president Kesara Manchusree was quoted as saying that over 160 businesses had raised 99 billion baht from listing on the Market for Alternative Investment, an exchange for SMEs, according to Bangkok Post. Also, 23 companies have moved to SET's main board.
Meanwhile, a visual effect producer funded by the GSB-led fund is already planning to list on SET, the news agency said.
