Outside In(fluence): Desperate Times - "Peace At Last" album review
Desperate Times are a band from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. I've never been there or anywhere near there. Some members of this band are in a Facebook group I'm in called Warehouse of Strangers and were looking for a review of their new album Peace at Last.
The cover art to Peace at Last is very metal, though Desperate Times isn't a metal band. There's the grim reaper holding a destroyed world and standing over skulls. The background is an assortment of scratches and chains and stuff. It's kind of roughly done, but it fits the album well even if it isn't perfectly rendered.
Peace At Last by Desperate Times
"Enough" starts the album off with screeching feedback into full-speed fury. What I can understand of the lyrics is cool - "I've had enough!". I like the short and discordant guitar solo. "Peering" is a grim thought about the "abyss of our future". I've been worrying a lot about this same thing in the last few months due to losing my job, government issues, and the state of the environment. The song brings a similar anxious quality, and I like the breakdowns that provide a state of clarity that clearly states these types of worries. It's an interesting juxtaposition. "Class War" is the last song on the first side. The guitar sounds great. This song has some extra sonic space which I appreciate.
"Prison" starts with an intro like a sci-fi film, but it's reality about prisons; we don't even need a dystopian future for this monologue. I was less impressed as it started, the vocals being a repeated "and they are" about the state of prison cruelty, but there are some other things here too. I like the idea of minimalist lyrics and the like, but I felt like the phrase "and they are" doesn't stand on its own like it should for something of this nature. "False Till True" has a cool chord progression, and the lyrics go off like a chant. The last song is a cover of "Some of Us Scream, Some of Use Shout" by Flux of Pink Indians, a band that I have not listened to enough. This song was a bit poppier than the others, except perhaps "Class War", though I wouldn't call either of these pop songs. To respond to the song, I don't think that it's too late for us to change. It's a tough fight though.
Peace at Last is a screechy and hard punk album along the lines of Crass and the like. I enjoyed it overall, though these types of things aren't my favorite. If you like peace punk/anarcho-punk, you'll probably dig this one.
Peace at Last receives a Good.
Halifax's Desperate Times yowl about the end of the world on "Peace at Last", an anarcho peace punk platitude.

awesome. look at em wail on that cupcake!
Thanks for adding a good laugh to my day!
This is such an awesome take on it!
WOW!!!!!! I think I've found my favorite cover on here!
I've really liked the direction of the last two Covered covers. Not only do they showcase the artist's individual style but they actually give a true individual interpretation, rather than simply redrawing what had existed.
Thanks for the praise, all. Don't resist the urge to visit my website also, whatisdeepfried.com.

Role of the Media: How Hate was Spread in 2002 in Gujarat Excerpts from the Concerned Citizens Tribunal Report, Crimes Against Humanity, Gujarat 2002
29, Jan 2019 | CC Team
The following piece that first appeared in the Nov Dec 2002 edition of Communalism Combat examines the role of media in spreading hate during the Gujarat 2002 communal carnage.
The Tribunal recommends that all the recommendations made by the Editors' Guild in its report on the Gujarat carnage be implemented. India; Rights and Wrongs the Editors Guild Report is available here.
On February 28, the two largest circulation, multiple-edition Gujarati newspapers, Sandesh and Gujarat Samachar, which are fairly dependent on the state government's largesse, played up the unsubstantiated official version of there being a 'foreign hand' behind the Godhra tragedy. It was only 3-4 weeks later that reports rubbishing this theory began to appear in newspapers. But by that time, the damage had already been done.
Sandesh and Gujarat Samachar have been playing a blatantly communal role since the BJP returned to power in Gujarat in 1998. The BJP government's patronage of these dailies needs to be looked into carefully, so that they do not continue to act as mere government agents. In the recent carnage, too, the role of Sandesh was particularly mischievous, while some smaller circulation newspapers like Gujarat Today, Sadhbhav and Gujarat Mitra acted responsibly.
On February 28, the day after the Godhra tragedy, Sandesh published photographs of the burning coach of the Sabarmati Express with the headline, 'Fifty Hindus burnt alive' above the masthead. Besides, it also had a gruesome colour spread of photographs of the Godhra corpses. This was the first major breach of media ethics and law in the context of the Gujarat carnage. Witnesses told the Tribunal that copies of this issue of Sandesh were widely photocopied and flaunted by cadres of the RSS/VHP and BD in rural areas, to provoke anger and prompt the participation of ordinary people in the carnage that followed.
In the same issue, another front page headline that read, 'From among those abducted from the Sabarmati Express, two dead bodies of Hindu girls found near Kalol in mutilated state' had the following report: "Vadodara, Thursday: News about the dead bodies of two girls, abducted from the bogies during the attack on the Sabarmati Express yesterday, found in a mutilated and terribly disfigured form near a pond in Kalol, has added fuel to the already volatile situation of tension, not only in Panchmahal, but in the whole state. In an act of inhumanity that would make even a devil weep, both girls had their breasts cut off. It is evident from the dead bodies that the victims had been repeatedly raped. There is speculation that the girls might have died because of gross sexual abuse." After investigations, the police found the report to be entirely baseless.
The police, too, stands indicted in this case by choosing to remain silent and doing nothing to expose the newspaper and initiate action against it for publishing a totally baseless but highly inflammatory story. Meanwhile, Sandesh continued, unchecked, to paint Muslims as murderers and traitors. On March 1, a report titled, 'Call from the mosque: Slay the non-believers — Islam is in trouble' told its readers: "On February 27, at 11.30 a.m., a mosque located along the railway tracks incited a crowd with the call: 'Slay the non-believers… Islam is in danger.' Responding to the call, the crowd attacked the surviving Ram sevaks from the torched train compartments, who were sitting by the railway tracks." This, too, was a story without any basis.
On March 7, Sandesh carried a report with a damaging headline, suggesting that Indian Muslims returning from the Haj pilgrimage could be a potential 'terrorist' threat to Hindus. Titled, 'Hindus in danger! Possibility of attack with terrorists' support! Frightening scheme of attack by returning Hajis!'
'When Muslim leaders shouted slogans like 'Hindustan Zindabad!', read a Sandesh headline on March 8. The report said that the Circuit House witnessed 'an unprecedented event', when Muslim leaders of the city came together to shout slogans like the one mentioned above, and appeal for peace. The implication was clear: that Muslims are inherently anti-national and violent, whose raising of patriotic slogans and appealing for peace was 'unprecedented'.
Typically, the opening lines of most reports concerning the post-Godhra violence began with, "In the continuing spiral of communal rioting that broke out as a reaction to the demonic (or barbaric) Godhra incident…" The denunciatory words used liberally to describe the Godhra incident were strikingly absent when reporting the subsequent genocide. Clearly, like the Gujarat government, Sandesh, too, continued to justify the carnage in the rest of Gujarat as a 'reaction' to the heinous arson in Godhra.
Inflammatory tactics were used consistently by Sandesh. Reports on gruesome acts, like the burning alive of people, were published in bold letters, under banner headlines. Photographs of burnt, mangled bodies were a regular feature on the front page, or the last page reserved for important local news. In the first week of violence in the state, Sandesh published colour photographs of scenes of the carnage, superimposed with a 'burst' giving readers the latest figure of casualties. Photographs of trishul-wielding 'Ram sevaks' were splashed on the front pages in the first week. The photographs served to instill terror amongst Muslims and to provoke intense passions and mutual hostility between the two communities.
Sandesh did worse than ignore the journalistic code of conduct that prohibits naming the communities involved in violent conflagrations. It published reports like: 'a mob of religious fanatics' (read Muslims) who were abducting tribal women, having to face the wrath of the people; or: 'religious fanatics' about to attack a temple causing tension in certain areas in Vadodara city, bringing 'devotees' (read Hindus) out on the street to protect their place of worship.
Throughout the violence, Sandesh cynically propagated the idea of Muslims being anti–national and pro–Pakistan. Areas in the city or the state with a sizeable Muslim population were described as 'mini-Pakistan'. On March 7, a report claimed to have discovered Godhra's 'Karachi connection': an entire area in Karachi named Godhra. On March 1, the headline of a news item claimed that a 'mini-Pakistan' was in existence in the Navayard area of the city. The article went on to say that such 'pockets' were being created in the city, and asked the police to take note of the 'criminal' UP migrant labourers who lived in this area. That Muslims in such bastis were living in complete terror at the time, was a trivial detail the Sandesh reports had no use for.
On March 1, a report claimed that the entire Sabarmati Express would have been put to flames had it not been delayed. The headline claimed, 'A mob of 7-8,000 was waiting for the Sabarmati Express to arrive at Godhra.' The mob, Sandesh reminded its readers, was made up of 'religious fanatics'.
Gujarat Samachar, the other leading Gujarati paper, also played a role in inflaming passions, though not as consistently as Sandesh. Reportage on the Godhra incident, in particular, was inflammatory and irresponsible. But it also carried reports highlighting the need for communal harmony.
On February 28, the lead story on page 1 carried the headline, '3–4 young girls kidnapped.' The source of this information was not mentioned. On page 10, a report quoted VHP leader, Shri Kaushik Patel, who claimed that 10 girls had been kidnapped. The reporter, evidently, had not cross–checked the concocted claims, either with the IGP or the railway police. The report did not mention the names of any of the girls or any other details about the alleged kidnapping.
On March 6, the Gujarat Samachar carried a report on the last page with the headline, 'The Plan was to torch the whole train, not just one bogie.' A box item on the last page stated that, 'a mob was ready for the second attack.' Again, the source of information was not mentioned; the tone and tenor of the reports, however, suggested they were reports based on careful investigation.
On March 7, Gujarat Samachar carried a box item on the last page, claiming that, "ISI is creating trouble in Gujarat; Kalota and his colleagues are important link; the deputy commander of 'Huji', arrested in Kolkata, has confessed to the conspiracy." The report uses the term 'Rambhakt' several times for the travellers on the Sabarmati Express on that fateful day. On March 6, the headline of a report read 'Torching of the train at Godhra was pre-planned. Kalota was tipped off by a railway officer on how to cut open the vacuum pipes.' The source of information was not mentioned.
On March 16, a page 1 story titled, 'Indiscriminate firing from Fatehganj Mosque,' was a complete fabrication.
On March 18, a photograph on page 1 showing bombs recovered by police during combing operations in the Danilimda area of Ahmedabad, had a caption that said: "People talking of secularism should be asked if protecting criminals is secularism."
There were many other stories that contributed actively to the belief that Muslims were mobilising on a large scale to attack Hindus. It is evident from the communal pogroms and conflicts in recent years, that a section of the mass media is being increasingly used to peddle the familiar communal tactic of depicting the victim as the aggressor and vice versa. On March 24, a heading on page 1 of GujaratSamachar read, 'Sat Kaival temple receives threat; Sarsa temple and pathshala under threat of being blown up using remote control.' And a heading on page 2 in the same issue read, 'Possibility of attack with deadly weapons; Secret agencies receive information; Religious and educational institutions will be targeted. All DSPs alerted.' On March 26, Gujarat Samachar had a story on the last page, 'Sabarmati Express incident was nothing but a pre–planned incident; many youths ready to commit crimes on just one signal from Bilal.' There was absolutely no basis to any of these reports.
However, unlike Sandesh and Gujarat Samachar also carried some positive stories. Here are some examples:
Ø Muslims saved a Hindu shopkeeper's shop in Halol. (March 2, p.5)
Ø Residents of Ram–Rahim tekra in Ahmedabad are an example of communal harmony. (March 5, p.1).
Ø Hindus saved the life of a Muslim woman in Halol. (March 5, p.5).
Ø No one wants riots. Rare scenes of communal harmony in sensitive areas of the city. (March 6, last page).
Ø Elol village near Himmatnagar is an example of communal harmony. (March 6, p.5).
Ø A Muslim woman offered shelter to a Hindu family. (March 7, p.3)
Ø At Bhoj village in Padra taluka, Muslims were given shelter in a temple. (March 7, p.8).
Ø "Oh! He is our Rahim Chacha… our guruji…" and they saved him. (March 10, p.11; An article by Bhaven Kachchhi in Sunday supplement.)
Ø At Lilapir Dargah of Talaja, devotees include all — Hindus and Muslims. (March 11, p.5).
Ø An old Muslim woman saved from a mob by a Hindu youth. (March 22, p.2)
Ø A pregnant lady taken to hospital by a Muslim youth risking his life. (March 28)
Gujarat Today is an 11–year–old Gujarati daily with a claimed circulation of 70,000. It is published by the Lokhit Prakashan Trust, Ahmedabad. The paper was started by Muslim liberals, and is probably the only Gujarati daily with a large Muslim readership. The paper carries news from villages and district towns that are not generally covered by the mainstream media. Given that Muslims constitute the vast majority of the readers of Gujarat Today, the role it played during the carnage is particularly noteworthy and significant
There was no editorial on the Godhra carnage on February 28, to condemn the heinous crime of torching a train compartment, whatever the provocation. Principles apart, the daily, it would seem, was even oblivious to the enormous communal consequences of what had happened. However, thereafter, the extensive coverage of the incidents, helplines and information about the police and the administration was factual.
The daily also made a consistent effort to report on instances of communal harmony, and to project the view of Hindu liberals and progressives who were critical of the Hindutva project in Gujarat. Some examples are reports on: how the lives and properties of 175 Muslims of Naroda in Ahmedabad were protected by local shepherds; how Hindu doctors in Bhavnagar saved properties from burning and made efforts to treat the injured; relief in the form of foodgrain and clothes provided by Hindus to victims in Jhagadia; a group marriage of Hindu and Muslim youths in Mangrol.
Also reported was news from Prantij, where a woman sarpanch successfully stopped riots occurring in her village. The March 8 edition carried news items about peace committees in Vagra, Palej, Dholka and Bharuch. On March 10, the paper had a report on how Hindu families saved the lives of 15 Muslims in Kavitha village near Borsad. While there were reports from Juhapura, of how Muslims saved Hindus, there was also a report on how looting of both Hindus and Muslims took place.
The March 12 issue carried news of a Hindu family in Dehgam, which sheltered 20 Muslims in their house, and a boxed item about a relief camp in Bhalej village, Kheda district, run by Hindus and Muslims. The March 15 issue had a report of how Muslim women saved the lives of Hindus. News of unity among the Hindus and Muslims of Lambadia and Sami was reported in other issues of the paper.
The Gujarat government, the Tribunal notes, was selective about action against TV channels and publications. While it banned some local TV channels, and also a national channel — Star News — on March 2, because it had exposed the government's inaction, it took no action against newspapers like Sandesh. The ban was lifted on the assurance that the CM would be given a chance to air his views on the channel.
The English language newspapers, with their local editions in Gujarat, did a commendable job through most of that period.

UK Government ban means wind industry idles as supplier announces job cuts
Posted on 01/11/2019 by Nick Sharpe
Almost 50 wind farms which could power the equivalent of 850,000 homes risk losing vital planning permission unless a political ban on their access to the energy market is lifted, new research has shown.
The new study comes as the UK's only wind turbine tower manufacturer, CS Wind, says market conditions mean it may need to cut three-quarters of its Argyll workforce.
The wind farms identified in the Scottish Renewables study would increase Scotland's renewable energy capacity by almost 15% - but most have not been built because of a UK Government block on onshore wind power.
Other issues affecting development include the speed at which alterations to projects – vital to improve their economics – are held up in Scotland's planning system, as well as increased fees for planning services, business rates and aviation issues.
Planning permission for the 47 projects, which stretch from Shetland to Dumfriesshire, was obtained during the period of the UK Government's onshore wind moratorium – and will begin to expire from next spring (2020).
Claire Mack, Chief Executive of Scottish Renewables, which has carried out the research, said: "It is heart-breaking to see jobs being lost at CS Wind in Argyll as the projects which could have provided the company with work are unable to proceed in large part because of the UK Government's politically-motivated intransigence.
"New onshore wind farms are the cheapest form of energy generation, and therefore the cheapest way we have of tackling the climate emergency.
"Developers are desperate to build these projects, which alone would increase Scotland's renewable energy capacity by almost 15% and deliver vital jobs for companies like CS Wind.
"Onshore wind's popularity is at an all-time high, with 79% of people supporting the use of the technology. Scottish Renewables polling earlier this year (2019) showed that almost seven in ten Scots living in rural areas support the use of onshore wind energy, so the case is clear-cut: the UK Government's opposition to onshore wind as wrongheaded today as it was when it curtailed this cheap, popular technology's access to the energy market in 2015.
"It is imperative that that ban is lifted as a matter of urgency and that issues which have been identified with Scotland's planning system are addressed so these projects can deliver economic and social benefits for Scotland, as well as helping meet our stretching climate targets."
The 47 onshore wind projects identified in the new research would add almost 1.6GW of renewable energy capacity in Scotland, enough to power the equivalent of 850,000 homes.
The UK Government excluded onshore wind from participating in the CfD Auction Round 2 in 2017 and CfD Auction Round 3, held last month (Sept 2019). More detail.

Q: Por que consigo dar argumentos para uma função escrita depois no programa?
Estou fazendo recentemente um curso de python e me foi apresentado a
seguinte linha de código:

def main():
     name = input("What's your name?")
     hello(name)

def hello(to="world"):
     print("Hello",to)

main()

Eu não consigo entender como que na primeira função eu consigo passar um parâmetro para uma função que nem ao menos foi criada...

A: Segundo a documentação:

A function definition is an executable statement. Its execution binds the function name in the current local namespace to a function object
...
The function definition does not execute the function body; this gets executed only when the function is called.

Traduzindo:

A definição de uma função é uma declaração executável. Sua execução associa o nome da função no namespace atual ao objeto que representa a função.
...
A definição de uma função não executa o seu corpo; este só é executado quando a função é chamada.

Ou seja, quando você define uma função (def nome_funcao(etc...), o código que está dentro dela não é executado. Você só está associando o nome da função ao respectivo bloco de código. Mas como aquele bloco não é executado, não dá erro (ou seja, ao definir a função main, o código dela não é executado, então ele não verifica neste momento se a função hello existe ou não).
Quando você chama a função, aí o código dentro dela é executado. Ou seja, ao executar main(), em determinado momento ele vai tentar chamar a função hello. E como hello foi definida antes de você chamar main, então tudo bem.

O mesmo não ocorreria se você chamasse main antes de definir hello, pois aí dá erro:
def main():
     name = input("What's your name?")
     hello(name)

# chamei main() antes de definir hello
main() # erro! NameError

def hello(to="world"):
     print("Hello",to)

Agora dará erro: "NameError: name 'hello' is not defined", pois o código de main foi executado e tentou chamar hello, que ainda não foi definida.

Podemos ver melhor este comportamento com esta função:
def funcao():
    funcao_que_nao_existe(x)
    outra_funcao_que_nao_existe(y, z)

Se meu arquivo .py tiver somente isso, não dá erro. Isso porque, como já dito, só estou definindo a função (ou seja, associando o nome funcao com o respectivo bloco de código). Mas o código dentro da função não é executado, por isso ele não vai detectar que as duas funções ali não existem.
Só quando eu chamar a função é que dá erro:
def funcao():
    funcao_que_nao_existe(x)
    outra_funcao_que_nao_existe(y, z)

funcao() # NameError: name 'funcao_que_nao_existe' is not defined

Pois agora ele tentará executar o código da função, e verá que a funcao_que_nao_existe não existe, porque não foi definida em lugar nenhum.

VVVVVV flips onto the Switch eShop on November 17 for $9.99
News reported by
Welp, guess I'm double-dipping.
Nicalis said:
SANTA ANA, California, October 23, 2017—Nicalis, Inc., video game developer and publisher, announces today that the crazy fun gravity-switching saga VVVVVV will release on the Nintendo eShop for digital download on November 17. It will carry a price of $9.99.
In VVVVVV you play as Captain Viridian, brave commander of a spaceship whose crew members are accidentally teleported to random locations in an unknown dimension. While exploring the ship and its surroundings, you can switch the polarity of gravity at any time. You can "fall up" to extricate yourself from pits and walk across the ceiling when it's too dangerous to step on the floor. Viridian uses this ability to search for teleporters, shiny collectible trinkets and the ship's missing crew.
"VVVVVV was designed by Terry Cavanagh as an homage to the 8-bit Commodore 64 computer games that he played while he was growing up," says Nicalis president Tyrone Rodriguez. "But you don't need to have had those experiences to enjoy every last bit of it. It's one of those rare games that are immediately accessible and simple."
The Switch version of VVVVVV runs at 60 frames per second, with bright and colorful throwback graphics and a number of graphical filters to change the visual aesthetic. The supremely catchy chiptune soundtrack will stay in your head for hours after you stop playing.
Developed by distractionware and Nicalis, Inc., VVVVVV will be available for Nintendo Switch on November 17 as a digital download from the Nintendo eShop for $9.99 (North America) or 9,99€ (Europe). The game has been rated E by the ESRB.

Awesome game. Definitely one of the best soundtracks ever even if I did eventually have to unfollow the musician on Facebook because of his constant rants about "SJWs" and such.
Wonder if I'll bother getting all the trinkets this time around. That loooooong section that forces you into getting past it by pure trial-and-error induced muscle memory never sat well with me.
@Zero
Oh great. Another swedish arsehole making his stupid voice heard in the gaming industry. Thank jebus for Image & Form. They're still cool. Right? Right?!
@r_hjort To be fair he doesn't really have much of a presence in the game industry. I only knew this because I was friends with him on Facebook.
Ah, good good. I think I thought that he had done some music for Slime-san recently, but as it turns out that was FantomenK. Who actually seems to be alright, so that's nice.

Q: Widget ordering in Widget Gallery I have a WidgetBundle that contains multiple widgets in the following format:
@main
struct SampleBundle: WidgetBundle {
    @WidgetBundleBuilder
    var body: some Widget {
        Widget1()
        Widget2()
        Widget3()
    }
}

When I launch the Widget Gallery the widgets appear in the order defined above, but the carousel does not always default to the first widget / slide for the user to add. So there would be situations where the second widget (2nd slide) or 3rd is shown by default and the user needs to swipe back in order to get to the first slide.
Ideally, I'd like to always default to the first widget. Most of the apps that have widget bundles have this functionality, so I figured there must be something obvious that I'm missing.
A few notes:

*

*All widgets in the bundle only support small widget family

*All widgets in the bundle have dynamic intents

*All widgets in the bundle have placeholders defined

Any help is greatly appreciated!

MOSCOW — Edward Snowden, the fugitive American intelligence leaker, missed another plane to Havana on Thursday. As an overnight stopover in Moscow drags on, Snowden's stay is taking a toll on the U.S.-Russia relationship.
President Obama took time out on a trip to Africa to prod the Kremlin to turn over Snowden.
"My continued expectation is that Russia or other countries that have talked about potentially providing Mr. Snowden asylum recognize that they are part of an international community, and that they should be abiding by international law," Obama told reporters in Senegal.
American congressmen have come out with a series of statements sharply critical of the Kremlin.
Kremlin showing no sign of cooperating.
American intelligence experts worry that Russian officials have copied the memories of the four laptops that Snowden brought with him.
Russian President Vladimir Putin rejects U.S. pressure over Snowden.
"He's in the transit hall as a transit passenger now," President Putin said on a visit to Finland Wednesday. "Our special services have never worked with Mr. Snowden and aren't working today."
In Hong Kong, Snowden told journalists Glenn Greenwald and Laura Poitras with The Guardian newspaper he rejects accusations that he leaked America's secrets to help foreign powers.
The longer Snowden stays in Russia, the more he is winning conservative support in the country. Russian lawmakers and some human rights leaders now want the Kremlin to grant Snowden asylum. One Russian Senator, Ruslan Gattarov, invited Snowden to address a parliamentary working group set up to explore allegations of American wiretapping of Russian citizens.
President Putin says he will not extradite Snowden to the United States. But he wants the fugitive to keep moving. "Mr. Snowden is a free man," he said in Finland. "The sooner he chooses his final destination, the better it would be for us and for himself."
If Snowden keeps missing flights to Havana, a new solution could be on the horizon.
Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has said that he is considering granting Snowden asylum. Next week, President Maduro is to fly to Moscow in Venezuela's presidential jet, an Airbus, to attend a conference of gas-producing nations.
In the roomy jet, he could bring along two other left-leaning leaders of South American gas-producing nations, Bolivian President Evo Morales and Ecuadorian President Rafael Correa. Ecuador has said it is reviewing an asylum request from Snowden.
Conceivably, Snowden could fly directly from Moscow to Caracas with this high level entourage. Perhaps aware of this possibility, President Obama promised not to take extraordinary measures.
"No, I'm not going to be scrambling jets to get a 29-year-old hacker," he said, referring to Snowden who turned 30 last week in Hong Kong.

Euroland, the TARGET system and the potential challenges for creditor nations
by James Bevan
in Blogs · James Bevan
The official literature states that Euroland's TARGET2 had been set up as a 'settlement system' for cross border transactions within Euroland by the member banking system and it was suggested that it was in effect a copy of the US's Fedwire System whereby if (for example) the Richmond Fed runs a balance of payments deficit with the San Francisco Fed, then the Richmond Fed will end up with a debit balance in Fedwire with respect to San Francisco. Then, at the end of the financial year, the various debit and credit balances of the various Fed Districts are calculated and settlement then takes place, with the debtors discharging their debts through the use of gold certificates (i.e. claims on the gold reserves in Fort Knox).
On this basis, the US is internally still on something of a gold standard and it is certainly true that if a particular district of the Federal Reserve runs deficits, money will leave the area in question, it will not be replaced (i.e. the local banking system will lose deposits and hence some of its intrinsic ability to create new credit) and there will be a tendency for the region in deficit to deflate. Meanwhile, in the surplus districts, money enters the banking system, and there is therefore a tendency for inflation in that area, often evidenced by what happens to property prices and wages. The system involves both inflation in the creditors and deflationary forces in the debtors, thereby implying that the burden of adjustment is shared. Fedwire, perhaps as a result of its history, still works very much as though it were an old style fixed exchange rate/gold standard system and the fact that there's settlement at the end of the fiscal year means that any district's debit or credit balances do not become overly large.
When TARGET2 was set up, it too was explicitly designed to accommodate modest balances, but one very important way in which TARGET2 differs from Fedwire is that there is no settlement date and hence large balances can accumulate within the system, and so they have. In effect, with no scale or time limit, deficit countries are in theory never called to account with funds lost through balance of payments deficits in theory automatically replaced by lending flows from the surplus countries. Hence there is no pressure for monetary deflation in deficit countries. Meanwhile, surplus countries are systematically obliged to expand their central banks' balance sheets by constantly acquiring claims on the deficit countries on the asset side of their balance sheets, while creating (excess) reserve deposits for their own banking on the liabilities side.
Looking back, as a result of the not unrelated timing of EMU in relation to German reunification, Germany joined the Euro with an exchange rate that was perhaps 20% too high (the Bundesbank's contemporary estimate). This overvaluation of the "German Euro" implied that it was Germany that experienced a tendency towards balance of payments deficits and borrowing through the TARGET system but crucially Germany was not expected, and indeed did not deflate. Despite talk that Germany deflated its way back to competiveness in the late 1990s does not square with the observation that wages did not fall in any quarter during the period. What did happen was that the then competitive parts of Euroland, the PIGS, inflated and the 'inflationary Euro' sank like a stone on the foreign exchanges. Germany's weakness was therefore accommodated by the Euro System with the result that the Euro exhibited a tendency to high background inflation, and currency weakness. However, by 2003-5, inflation in the PIGS had rendered them uncompetitive, and in theory Germany should then have been the country facing inflationary pressure. However Germany did not experience heightened inflation given the timing of the global financial crisis, which impaired capital adequacy of the German banks and the desire to extend credit, the long term trend in German demographics (aging populations tend to be relatively bad at generating inflation), ongoing weakness in world trade, and the Fed's monetary policy regime, despite building up excess reserves in its banking system.
Some inflationary pressures have emerged in Germany such as parts of the housing market, and there has been some wage inflation, but Germany does not just need higher unit labour cost inflation than the PIGS to close the competitiveness gap – it needs perhaps inflation of 400–500bp above the periphery and so far it's fallen well short of that. In consequence, although there is an inflation-biased adjustment mechanism implicit within the design of the TARGET2, it hasn't functioned that way. Deficit countries have witnessed large 'supportive' inflows from the TARGET2 system, so deflationary pressures have been countered but the inflation that was supposed to have occurred in Germany has simply not been sufficient. Hence, the balance of payments deficits in the PIGS, and the surpluses in the core countries, have remained unresolved and the accumulated balances continue to expand.
Over recent months, general awareness of the existence of the TARGET system has increased and commentators have tended to follow the official EU line that TARGET will by design always cover a deficit country's needs, but TARGET was never designed to cover, and certainly not 'sold' to its participants as a system that would cover, countries such as Spain running balance of payments deficits that are now in excess of 30% of their GDP, and heading higher. Indeed, Spain has suffered a BoP deficit of more than €300bn over the last year and Italy is not far behind at almost €200bn. Portugal and Greece have each suffered BoP Crises. Much more positively Ireland has achieved surpluses over the last 12 months, although it still owes a substantial net amount to its TARGET system creditors.
The TARGET system aggregate balances total almost €2tn. These are magnitudes which the system was not designed to cover, and Germany's €600bn (as of July) positive balance in the system leaves the Bundesbank unhappy, and there is now a concern in Germany over the long term monetary impact of, and the contingent liabilities connected with, the huge build up in claims on the TARGET system despite the ECB and others' attempts to avoid this debate. To put this in context, Germany's net positive balance in the TARGET system is the equivalent of around 20% of its GDP, and there is a potential contingent liability for the government of at least €200-300bn (so 10% of GDP) in the event of Euro failure and default by any or all deficit countries. Meanwhile, the build up in TARGET balances at the Bundesbank has also contributed to the creation of the equivalent of 50% of domestic GDP is excess reserves in the German banking system. Thus far, these excess reserves have not resulted in a meaningful pick up in credit growth within Germany but were the banks ever to feel more optimistic and their capital adequacy ratios improve, then such reserves could represent a huge potential inflationary overhang for Germany. However, in proportion to its GDP, Germany is not the most 'at risk' from the build up of positive TARGET system. Luxembourg has claims on the TARGET system equivalent to over 120% of its annual GDP while Finland, at nearly 50%, of its GDP is also very exposed to the system.
If the Euro does not break, the build up in TARGET balances could ultimately create a wave of inflation in Finland, Luxembourg and perhaps even Germany at some point. But, if the Euro fails and the debtors default, then the governments of these countries could find their public debt ratios leapfrogging even those of some of the embattled PIGS.

In order to reduce systematic errors (such as language bias) and increase the precision of the summary treatment effect estimate, a comprehensive identification of randomised controlled trials (RCT), irrespective of publication language, is crucial in systematic reviews and meta-analyses. We identified trials in the German general health care literature.
Eight German language general health care journals were searched for randomised controlled trials and analysed with respect to the number of published RCTs each year and the size of trials.
A total of 1618 trials were identified with a median total number of 43 patients per trial. Between 1970 and 2004 a small but constant rise in sample size from a median number of 30 to 60 patients per trial can be observed. The number of published trials was very low between 1948 and 1970, but increased between 1970 and 1986 to a maximum of 11.2 RCTs per journal and year. In the following time period a striking decline of the number of RCTs was observed. Between 1999 and 2001 only 0.8 RCTs per journal and year were published, in the next three years, the number of published trials increased to 1.7 RCTs per journal and year.
German language general health care journals no longer have a role in the dissemination of trial results. The slight rise in the number of published RCTs in the last three years can be explained by a change of publication language from German to English of three of the analysed journals.
Approximately more than 10,000 randomised controlled trials (RCTs) – widely acknowledged as the gold standard for the evaluation of medical interventions – are published each year. Systematic reviews of RCTs, such as those disseminated through the Cochrane Collaboration, synthesise the results of individual trials to facilitate the use of external evidence in clinical decision making. The process of systematic reviewing is designed to maximise validity. This is accomplished with a series of steps to minimise bias, such as a comprehensive literature search. Indeed, the exhaustive identification of trials, irrespective of the language of publication, seems important to reduce systematic errors like language bias. Studies investigating the influence of language bias reveal controversial findings. For the comparison of German and English-language trials, a significant trend towards publication of statistically significant results in English-language journals was identified . However, reanalysis of published meta-analysis including both English and non-English language trials found no consistent change in the summary estimates of meta-analyses when excluding non-English language trials. These findings, however, seem to depending on the medical specialty. In complementary medicine several meta-analyses resulted in significantly smaller summary result estimates when excluding non-English language trials [2–4]. Therefore, without consistent empirical evidence supporting the exclusion of non-English language trials, the set of eligible trials for systematic reviews and meta-analysis should be as comprehensive as possible and should therefore not preclude the inclusion of trials because of language reasons.
In order to support reviewers the Cochrane Collaboration organised an international project to manually search the health care literature from many countries for RCTs. The trials identified are added to the Cochrane Controlled Trials Register and thus made available to reviewers.
Eight German language general health care journals (and their predecessors) were manually searched for the years 1948 to 2004: Deutsche Medizinische Wochenschrift, Journal of Molecular Medicine (formerly Klinische Wochenschrift), Medizinische Klinik, Medizinische Welt, Münchener Medizinische Wochenschrift, Swiss Medical Weekly (formerly Schweizerische Medizinische Wochenschrift), Wiener Medizinische Wochenschrift, Zeitschrift für Allgemeinmedizin.
The sample sizes of the identified trials were extracted and analysed in groups of three consecutive calendar years.
1618 RCTs were published as original articles with a median total number of patients of 43 (quartiles 20 and 87). Only 19.3% of the identified trials included more than 100 patients. The number of published trials was very low between 1948 and 1970 and increased between 1970 and 1986 to a maximum of 11.2 RCTs per journal and year (figure 1). In the following time period a striking decline of the number of RCTs was observed. Between 1999 and 2001 only 0.8 RCTs per journal and year were published on average. In the last analysed time period (2002–2004) an increase in the number of published trials can be observed: 1.7 trials per journal and year were published.
Number and Size of RCTs published in eight German language general health care journals.
Personal communication with editors of the journals resulted in a fairly uniform explanation of this trend: The widespread introduction of using journal impact factors for the allocation of resources has strongly motivated researchers to publish in higher impact journals. As these are almost entirely in English, German general health care journals now rarely receive RCTs for publication.
Concerning the trial size, a slight but steady increase of the number of patients per trial can be observed. The median number of patients per trial rose from 30 in the years 1969 to 1971 to 60 between 2002 and 2004.
The number of RCTs published in the German language general health care literature has declined dramatically between 1986 and 2001. Between 1999 and 2001 eight major German language general health care journals published only 20 RCTs.
This observation confirms developments in other general health care journals, but is in clear contrast to high impact international general and specialist journals where a constant number of RCTs has been observed over past decades [5–7].
The slight increase of the number of published trials in the years 2002 to 2004 can (partially) be explained by changes of publication language from German to English in three of the analysed journals (more than 50% of the 39 RCTs published between 2002 and 2004 were in English language).
The sample size of trials identified in German language general health care journals was small with an increase in the more recent volumes. Although the trial size increased, it remains even in recent years rather small with a median number of 60 patients per trial. The average sample size of RCTs published in German appears to be comparable to other general health care journals and specialist journals, however, trials published in international journals of high impact are considerably larger [5, 7]. The proportion of RCTs with 100 or more patients published in the BMJ and the Annals of Internal Medicine in the years 1995–1997 was 76% compared to 19.3% in the investigated German language journals .
The observed decline of RCTs published in German language general health care journals raises the question whether the number of trials is declining or whether trials nowadays are more frequently not published or published elsewhere. Currently German ethics committees do not know the exact number of approved RCTs because their records do not distinguish between different study designs. We can only speculate whether an increasing proportion of these trials is never published, or where these trials have been published in recent years. What can be concluded is that the leading general health care journals in the German language area have abandoned their role in the dissemination of RCTs. However, the change of the publication language from German to English (as in the Schweizerische Medizinische Wochenschrift – now swiss Medical Weekly) resulted in a contrasting development with an increase of the number of published RCTs.
Allocation of funding resources and the scientific career depend to a great extent on the value of the scientific output (measured by impact factor points) of an institution or an individual researcher. The result is an increasingly fierce competition for publication in high impact journals, with high rejection rates, influencing the chance to get manuscripts published in due time. German-language RCTs, and those from comparable non-English language countries, face far more obstacles to publication than a decade ago when they were easily submitted to German-language or other non-English language journals, with a good chance of being accepted for publication. It is unclear how these changes in dissemination patterns affect the validity of systematic reviews and meta-analyses, and, generally, the transfer of knowledge from research into practice. Prospective trial registration, frequently stipulated but not implemented universally, would allow tracking trials from ethics committee approval to publication and help prevent under- and overreporting . This study adds another piece of evidence to the urgent need for more transparency in the dissemination process, as it is intended by the present initiative of WHO . In this initiative WHO has taken the lead to establish a standardized, global framework for the prospective registration of clinical trials as e.g. required by the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) to reduce biases in the reporting and publication process of clinical trials and thus improve the base for decision making in health care .

I had some pumpkin left over from another recipe and I wanted to come up with something fun but I didn't have a lot of time for dinner. When time is tight, I turn to quinoa, it's a quick meal that I can through all the ingredients into a pan, mix and serve.
A few years back I had pumpkin ravioli that was served in a butter sage sauce with chard on the side. Since then that flavor combination has been a favorite but I don't always have the time to make ravioli. This recipe brought me back to that ravioli but I didn't have the guilt afterwards since it wasn't doused in delicious butter sauce!
Cook quinoa in vegetable stock.
Sauté onions and garlic in a little olive oil. Add mushrooms and cook until there is no more liquid in the pan. Deglaze the pan with the white wine. Add in rainbow chard and cook for 2-3 mintutes or until nicely wilted. Add in remaining ingredients as well as the cooked quinoa.
Serve when still hot and garnish with shredded parmesan.

N ightingale stopped the MGB in front of the gates to Gosling Manor and looked across at Jenny expectantly. 'Can you get the gates?'
'What did your last slave die of?' asked Jenny, climbing out of the car. It was dark and the gates gleamed in the MGB's headlights.
'It wasn't overwork,' said Nightingale. He waited until Jenny had pushed open both gates before driving through. She closed them and got back into the car, shivering and rubbing her hands together.
'Why didn't Gosling install electronic gates?' she asked.
'I get the feeling he didn't have many visitors,' said Nightingale. He put the car in gear and drove along a narrow paved road that curved to the right through thick woodland.
'Who's taking care of the grounds?' asked Jenny.
'No one at the moment. Gosling let all the staff go before he topped himself.'
'You're going to have to get someone in when spring comes,' she said, nodding at the expansive lawns to their left, the grass glistening in the moonlight. 'The grass will need cutting and you can't let woodland take care of itself. It's got to be looked after.'
'I keep forgetting that you're a country girl at heart,' said Nightingale.
'Daddy has three gardeners working full-time,' said Jenny. 'And this place isn't much smaller.'
'I'll have to check the money situation,' said Nightingale. 'But I'm pretty sure I don't have enough to pay for a gardener.'
'There's the money from the books you sold from Gosling's library. You got a stack of cash for them.'
'Yeah, but that's got to go towards the mortgages Gosling took out on the house. Could turn out to be negative equity there, in which case I'm really in trouble.'
'Wasn't there insurance? On Gosling's life. I know he killed himself but most policies pay out if the suicide is a couple of years after the policy is taken out.'
'Turtledove didn't mention any insurance policies, so I guess not,' said Nightingale.
He parked in front of the house, a two-storey mansion, the lower floor built of stone, the upper floor made of weathered bricks, topped by a tiled roof with four massive chimney stacks. To the left of the house was a four-door garage and behind it a large conservatory. In the middle of the parking area stood a huge stone fountain, the centrepiece of which was a weathered stone mermaid surrounded by dolphins and fish.
'Are you going to sell it?'
'I think I'll have to,' he said. 'I can't see myself living out here in the middle of nowhere.' He switched off the engine and climbed out. He lit a cigarette as he looked over at the ivy-covered entrance. 'It'd make a great hotel.'
'You should get an estate agent to value it,' said Jenny, getting out of the car. She looked up at the front. 'It really is a beautiful building. Doesn't seem like the sort of place that a Satanist would call home, does it? Even at night.'
Nightingale chuckled. 'Doesn't look like a haunted house, you mean?'
'It's a family house. You can imagine the kids playing on the lawn, Mum in the drawing room, Dad in the study tying fish flies, the faithful retainer in the kitchen giving a couple of pheasants to the cook.'
Nightingale looked over at her, his cigarette halfway to his lips. 'You are joking, right?'
Jenny shrugged. 'Maybe, maybe not,' she said.
'Who has a cook and a faithful retainer these days?'
Her cheeks flushed and she looked away.
Nightingale grinned. 'Daddy?'
'It's a large house and it needs staff,' said Jenny. 'You'll find that out for yourself. I can't imagine you'll want to be dusting and polishing and cleaning windows.'
'Yeah, but a faithful retainer?'
'Lachie is a gamekeeper, if you must know. Now stop taking the piss, Jack. And let's go inside, it's freezing out here.'
Nightingale fished the key from his raincoat pocket and unlocked the massive oak door. It opened easily and without a sound, despite its bulk. He switched the lights on. The hallway was as big as his office, with wood-panelled walls, a glistening marble floor and a large multi-tiered chandelier that looked like an upside-down crystal wedding cake.
There were three oak doors leading off the hallway, but the entrance to the basement library was concealed within the wooden panelling. Nightingale pulled open the hinged panel and reached inside to flick the light switch. He stepped aside and waved for Jenny to go ahead. 'Ladies first,' he said.
'Age before beauty,' she said. 'I'll follow you.'
'Scaredy cat,' he laughed, and went down the wooden stairs. Despite Nightingale's levity he could understand Jenny's reservations; there was something decidedly spooky about the basement. It ran the full length of the house and was lined with shelves laden with books. Running down the centre of the basement were two lines of display cases filled with all sorts of occult paraphernalia, from skulls to crystal balls. Nightingale had spent dozens of hours down there but had seen only a fraction of the contents.
Jenny followed him down, keeping a tight grip on the brass banister. 'I still don't understand why he kept all this stuff hidden,' she said. 'There's a perfectly good study and library upstairs.'
'I don't think he wanted his staff knowing what he was up to,' said Nightingale. He walked along to a seating area with two overstuffed red leather Chesterfield sofas and a claw-footed teak coffee table that was piled high with books. He sat down into one of the sofas.
Jenny ran her finger along the back of the other. 'Looks like no one's dusted in years,' she said.
'Are you offering?' asked Nightingale.
'No, I'm not.' She sat down. 'So what's the plan?'
Nightingale waved at the bookshelves behind him. 'I guess we need to find books on devils, see if any of them refer to a Frimost. While we're at it, we should start compiling a list of titles so that I can see which ones I can sell. We've got to sort the wheat from the chaff because some of them are really valuable. That's where most of Gosling's money went, remember?'
'It's going to take forever, Jack. There must be – what, two thousand books here?'
Nightingale shrugged. 'Yeah, give or take.'
'And most of them don't even have titles on their spines.'
'The longest journey starts with a single step,' said Nightingale.
'Did you get that piece of wisdom from a Christmas cracker?'
'From Mrs Ellis at my primary school, as it happens. We don't have to do them all at once.' He put his feet up onto the coffee table. 'What do you think's the best way of doing it?'
'Not sitting on your backside would be a good start,' she replied. 'How about we take a shelf each and work along it? We can write the details down and if either of us spots a book on devils we can flick through it and see if Frimost is mentioned.'
'Sounds like a plan,' said Nightingale. He stood up and went over to a huge oak desk that was piled high with books. He pulled open a drawer and found a couple of unused notepads. There were a dozen or so ballpoint pens in an old pint pot and he took two. 'There we go,' he said, giving Jenny a pen and a pad. 'Race you.'
'You're so competitive,' she said.
Nightingale pointed at the bookcase next to the stairs that led down from the hall. 'Might as well be methodical and start there,' he said. 'I'll take the top shelf, you take the one underneath.'
'I've just had a thought,' said Jenny. 'Have you actually looked for a list yet?'
'A list?'
'With this many books, he must have had some sort of inventory. How else would he know if he already had a particular volume?'
Nightingale nodded thoughtfully. 'Okay, that makes sense. But where would he keep it?'
'That's the question, isn't it?' said Jenny. 'He could have put it on a computer or his BlackBerry, if he had one. Or he could have written the list down in a book. Or filed it away.'
'Or maybe he didn't have a list in the first place.'
'Oh ye of little faith,' she said. 'There isn't a computer down here, is there?'
Nightingale gestured at the far end of the basement. 'There's one down there linked to the CCTV feeds but I'm pretty sure it's just for recording. And I haven't seen a laptop.'
'Have you checked the desk?'
Nightingale shook his head.
'Why don't I go through the desk while you make a start on the books?'
'Go for it,' said Nightingale. He took went over to the bookcase, where he started taking books down. They were mostly leather-bound and dusty but they had all been read and had been annotated in the same cramped handwriting. Passages were underlined and there were exclamation marks and question marks in red ink in the margins.
There didn't appear to be any logic to the order that the books were in. There was a book on plant biology next to a book on Greek mythology, then a first edition of Lord of the Rings next to a book on fairies. There were historical books, works of fiction, books of photographs and books written by hand. In turn, Nightingale noted down the title and the author and a number corresponding to its position on the shelf.
A bell rang somewhere upstairs. 'Who's that?' asked Nightingale.
Jenny smiled sarcastically. 'I'm not psychic,' she said.
'Yeah, that was just about the only thing missing from your CV,' said Nightingale. He stood up and walked the length of the basement to where half a dozen LCD screens were fixed to the wall in two banks of three. Nightingale tapped a button on a stainless-steel console in front of the screens and they flickered into life. There was a man in a dark overcoat standing in front of the main door, his hands in his pockets.
'Who is it?' called Jenny.
'The last person I want to see just now,' said Nightingale.

Health authorities and agricultural researchers in China have joined forces to investigate the source of a recent brucellosis outbreak that infected nearly 100 people at a research institute in Northwest China, the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, which oversees the institute, said on Sunday.
The pathogen, which mainly infects livestock and cannot be transmitted among humans, was first singled out at a hospital in Lanzhou, capital of Gansu province, on Dec 2, when four people from the Lanzhou Veterinary Research Institute were suspected of brucellosis infection.
The city"s health commission said on Friday that 65 of the 263 people at the institution tested positive for the bacteria. The infected personnel, mostly laboratory researchers, were put under treatment and medical observation, it added.
The number of infections was reported to have climbed to 96 by 12 pm on Saturday after tests expanded to 317 people, though none had displayed symptoms of the disease, China Central Television quoted the Lanzhou disease control and prevention center as saying.
In a statement posted on its website on Sunday, the academy said it was cooperating with the National Health Commission and local authorities to hunt down the source of infection to eradicate risks of future spread. "Investigation into possible negligence or lapses that led to the outbreak is also underway, and we will hold violators accountable," it added.
The academy also urged all affiliated institutions to conduct thorough examinations of biosafety hazards and shut down laboratories that present risks.
During a visit to the institute in Lanzhou on Saturday, Tang Huajun, head of the academy, said health and veterinary departments should step up collaboration in investigating the source of the bacteria, and medical treatment and psychological counseling should be provided.
People who have tested positive for brucellosis but display no symptoms should be observed for two to four weeks, said Wang Linghang, chief physician at Beijing Ditan Hospital"s Institute of Infectious Disease. For those who show symptoms, including fever, muscle pain and swollen lymph nodes, standard treatment, which usually lasts 13 weeks, is effective and accessible, he added.
Brucellosis is categorized as a Class B infectious disease-the middle level in the country"s three-tier system for such diseases, according to the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention.
A widespread epidemic of brucellosis was recorded in the 1950s and 1960s in China. The most recent outbreak occurred at Northeast Agricultural University in Heilongjiang province in 2011, leading to 28 infections. An investigation found that faculty members at the university had failed to inspect goats used for laboratory experiments and did not implement necessary protective measures.
