'This is about saving capitalism': the Dutch historian who savaged Davos elite
Rutger Bregman never intended to take billionaires to task over tax at World Economic Forum

'This is not rocket science': Rutger Bregman tells Davos to talk about tax – video
Rutger Bregman had not really intended to stick it to the global elite. He never meant to have a pop at the idea that inequality could be solved by philanthropy or inviting Bono to Davos. But when the Dutch historian decided to go off-piste at the World Economic Forum and tell the assembled billionaires they should stop avoiding paying tax, he became an overnight social media sensation.
"It's been a crazy week and just for stating the obvious," said Bregman, when asked about a panel discussion at the WEF last month in which he said the issue was "taxes, taxes, taxes, and all the rest is bullshit in my opinion".
Bregman had not been to Davos before. He was invited on the basis of the book Utopia for Realists, which argued for a basic income and a shorter working week, ideas that have been taken up by some of the Silicon Valley billionaires who show up for the annual event in the Swiss Alps.
No, wealth isn't created at the top. It is merely devoured there | Rutger Bregman
But he grew more irritated as the week wore on. Bregman gave a speech to a dinner of technology chief executives and then spoke at one of Davos's private sessions, off limits to journalists. There he was surprised and maddened by the pushback when he mentioned tax. "One American looked at me as if I was from another planet," he said.
As a result, Bregman decided to change his plan for a panel on inequality organised by Time magazine on the final morning of Davos. "I went to my hotel room and memorised what I wanted to say by heart," he said.
"I more or less ignored the question asked by the moderator and gave my speech instead. It was mainly to ease my own conscience: someone has to say what needs to be said."
What Bregman said, put simply, was the Davos emperors have no clothes. They talk a lot about how something must be done about inequality and the need to address social unrest, but cavil at the idea they might be a big part of the problem.
He told his audience that people in Davos talked about participation, justice, equality and transparency, but "nobody raises the issue of tax avoidance and the rich not paying their share. It is like going to a firefighters' conference and not talking about water."
Nothing happened over the weekend. Bregman went back to Amsterdam wondering whether his colourful language was a mistake, but then a video of the Time panel went viral, and it has received millions of views on Twitter alone.
Bregman, 30, is not entirely surprised at the reaction. He said he is part of a generation not traumatised by the cold war and radicalised by the financial crisis of a decade ago. "When we say what's needed are higher taxes and the response is 'that's communism', we say 'whatever'," he said.
"I am part of a broad social movement. Ten years ago, it would have unimaginable for some random Dutch historian to go viral when talking about taxes. Yet here we are."
As a historian, Bregman noted the most successful period for capitalism occurred in the years after the second world war, when the top rate of tax in the US was above 90%.
"This is about saving capitalism," he said. "Most innovation has come about through government spending. During the golden age period [after the second world war], there were way higher taxes on wealth, property, inheritance and top incomes. That's what we need today if we are going to tame this beast called capitalism."
Bregman was born in 1988, the year before the Berlin Wall came down. He grew up in the Dutch city of Zoetermeer, studied history at Utrecht University and contemplated doing a PhD before deciding he was not cut out for a career in academia.
"I didn't want to waste four years on an insignificant subject nobody cares about," he said. Instead, the global financial crisis pushed him in a different direction.
"I thought that we needed historians to take the stage and explain what's going on. When I watched the crisis on TV, the only people being interviewed were economists, and these were the guys that didn't see it coming. I thought that we needed some historians there, so I left academia," Bregman said.
He spent a year working on a left-of-centre Dutch paper before joining a new journalism platform that paid him a basic income and provided the freedom to write about anything he chose. Utopia for Realists was the result.
Bregman is working on a new book in which he intends to challenge the view that humans are inherently selfish. It is not true, he said, that people revert to their true, nasty selves when the thin veneer of civilisation is stripped away.

"If we assume the best in people, we can radically redesign our democracy and welfare states," he said.
Bregman bridles at being called an optimist. "I prefer the word possibilist," he said. Optimists are the sort of chief executives found at Davos, who think globalisation is working, neoliberalism is a good idea and inequality is on the decline, he added.
"A lot of great things are going on. In many ways, the past 30 years have been the best in world history. But we can do much better. I prefer the word hope over optimism," Bregman added.
So would he make a return visit to the WEF next year?
"I would definitely go. I would just give the same speech. It is going to be a dilemma for them. If they don't invite me, it will prove my point. If they do, I'll say the same thing all over again," he said.

Joe Jonas is a famous American actor and singer; notable for being a member of the pop band called the Jonas Brothers. Other members of the acclaimed music group are his two brothers, Nick and Kevin. Joe, along with his brothers, became popular following their appearances in Disney Channel musical films such as Camp Rock and Camp Rock 2; as well as the series titled Jonas Brothers: Living the Dream. Together, they released four studio albums which have recorded commercial success in the United States and beyond. Learn more about the fast-rising star below.
Joe Adam Jonas first came into this world on August 15, 1989; he grew up in Arizona, USA. He is the second out of the four sons of Paul Kevin Jonas and his wife Denise Jonas. His other siblings are Frankie Jonas, Nick Jonas, and Kevin Jonas. His father is also a well-known musician and a former minister in Assemblies of God church; while his mother is a teacher as well as a singer. He belongs to the white ethnicity and his nationality is American. Joe is well educated, however, his educational details are currently not available.
The pop band released their debut studio album titled It's About Time in August 2006. However, the album was not commercially successful; it sold only 67,000 copies in the United States. Due to lack of proper management by Columbia records, Joe Jonas and his brothers left the label and signed up with the Hollywood records, through which they released their second album titled The Jonas Brothers in August 2007. The album was commercially successful with over two million copies sold in the US; thus making it to the top five on the Billboard 200. Alongside his brothers, Joe made his acting debut the same year, appearing in the Disney Channel series titled Hannah Montana.
The trio also went on to star in the television series Jonas Brothers: Living the Dream and the movie titled Camp Rock. They released their third studio album titled A Little Bit Longer in August 2008. Joe featured as a guest in the ninth episode of American Idol in 2010; after which he appeared in Vampire Music Weekend's music video for their song titled Giving Up the Gun alongside Lil Jon and Jake Gyllenhaal.
Following lots of irreconcilable differences in their band, the Jonas Brothers split and each went their separate ways in 2013. After the split, Joe, along with Jinjoo Lee, Jack Lawless, and Cole Whittle went on to form a new band called DNCE. The band group released their first studio album titled Cake by the Ocean in 2015. Joe is currently one of the judges on the Australian version of the music talent hunt show titled The Voice in 2018.
Net Worth: How Much is Joe Jonas Worth?
Ever since he stepped into the limelight, he has continued to garner huge fame through his music career. The uniqueness of their songs has not only placed him and his brothers in the limelight, Joe Jonas has also amassed huge wealth for himself and he is currently living a decent lifestyle with a whopping net worth of $18 million. He earns his fortune from his music career, songwriting, and movies.
Joe Jonas is currently engaged to a brilliant American actress named Sophie Turner. Turner is well-known for portraying Sansa Stark in the Box Office hit series titled Game of Thrones. Sophie is an English actress, born on February 21, 1996. She began her acting career in 2011 when she appeared on the aforementioned David Benioff and D.B. Weiss television drama series. She has been playing the recurring role of Sansa Stark till date. Sophie has also featured in other movies including the X-Men film series, Another Me, and The Thirteen Tale, among others.
The couple first saw each other in October 2016 at a mutual friend's party. However, at the party, there was no sign a romance was burgeoning but they turned out to be an amazing couple. Later in November 2016, the pair were spotted cuddled up at the Kings of Leon Concert held in the Netherlands. Their relationship has been blossoming and they are always seen together in the public places and events. Turner confirmed her relationship with Jonas in July 2017 and in October of the same year, the couple announced their engagement. While the amazing couple is counting down to their day of 'I Dos,' we are wishing them a blissful marriage.
Additionally, Jonas has dated other famous stars including Camilla Belle, Taylor Swift, and Demi Lovato.

WhatsApp urges users to update app after discovering spyware vulnerability
The spyware, developed by Israeli cyber intelligence company, used infected phone calls to take over the functions of operating systems

WhatsApp is encouraging users to update to the latest version of the app after discovering a vulnerability that allowed spyware to be injected into a user's phone through the app's phone call function.
The spyware was developed by the Israeli cyber intelligence company NSO Group, according to the Financial Times, which first reported the vulnerability.
Attackers could transmit the malicious code to a target's device by calling the user and infecting the call whether or not the recipient answered the call. Logs of the incoming calls were often erased, according to the report.
WhatsApp said that the vulnerability was discovered this month, and that the company quickly addressed the problem within its own infrastructure. An update to the app was published on Monday, and the company is encouraging users to upgrade out of an abundance of caution.
WhatsApp 'deleting 2m accounts a month' to stop fake news
The company has also alerted US law enforcement to the exploit, and published a "CVE notice", an advisory to other cybersecurity experts alerting them to "common vulnerabilities and exposures".
The vulnerability was used in an attempted attack on the phone of a UK-based attorney on 12 May, the FT reported. The lawyer, who was not identified by name, is involved in a lawsuit against NSO brought by a group of Mexican journalists, government critics and a Saudi Arabian dissident.
"The attack has all the hallmarks of a private company reportedly that works with governments to deliver spyware that takes over the functions of mobile phone operating systems," WhatsApp said in a statement. "We have briefed a number of human rights organizations to share the information we can and to work with them to notify civil society."
NSO Group did not immediately respond to the Guardian's request for a comment. The company told the FT that it was investigating the WhatsApp attacks.
WhatsApp hack: what should I do?
Users are strongly advised to check for WhatsApp updates manually through the Apple App Store on an iPhone, Google Play or similar on an Android device, the Microsoft Store on Windows Phones and the Galaxy app store on Tizen devices.
A vulnerability in the popular Facebook-owned messaging service has been discovered that allowed hackers to install spyware through an infected WhatsApp voice call.
The spyware is capable of trawling through calls, texts and other data, activating the phone's camera and microphone and performing other malicious activities.
All brands of phones with WhatsApp or WhatsApp Business installed are affected, including Apple's iPhone (iOS), Android phones, Windows Phones and Tizen devices, according to Facebook. WhatsApp is used by 1.5 billion people globally.
Facebook implemented a server-side change to help protect users and pushed out updates for the various smartphone WhatsApp versions on Monday.

"Under no circumstances would NSO be involved in the operating or identifying of targets of its technology, which is solely operated by intelligence and law enforcement agencies," NSO Group told the FT. "NSO would not, or could not, use its technology in its own right to target any person or organization, including this individual."
NSO limits sales of its spyware, Pegasus, to state intelligence agencies. The spyware's capabilities are near absolute. Once installed on a phone, the software can extract all of the data that's already on the device (text messages, contacts, GPS location, email, browser history, etc) in addition to creating new data by using the phone's microphone and camera to record the user's surroundings and ambient sounds, according to a 2016 report by the New York Times.
WhatsApp has about 1.5bn users around the world. The messaging app uses end-to-end encryption, making it popular and secure for activists and dissidents. The Pegasus spyware does not affect or involve the app's encryption.

Dairy farmers running Fullwood's Merlin 2 milking robot can now monitor the performance of their herd through a new app.
The interface shows real-time performance data and historical milking records, both for individual cows and the herd as a whole.
It can be used to display parameters such as milk yield, number and duration of milkings per day and the time of last visit to make sure that cows are performing as expected.
These can be compared against a 10-day or 24-hour yield average and the information can be accessed from anywhere in the world, provided the user has wi-fi or a mobile data connection.
The app is also able to alert herd managers to potential problems with the robot and gives users easy access to the robot's cleaning records and maintenance schedules.
This includes any deviations in terms of cluster attachment timings and milk captured during the first two minutes of milking to provide an immediate warning of potential problems.
According to Fullwood, this helps make sure each Merlin is working as efficiently and hygienically as possible and should also help herd managers improve their work-life balance.
The M2erlinInfo app is free to download from Google Play and the Apple App Store.
It is compatible with the Merlin 2 robot but requires a communicator module to be installed.


URBANA — Working in a small hospital in Pakistan, Gary Massey encountered soldiers with some diseases that most Americans will never see, if they're lucky.
Later, he worked at an Air Force Base where administrators coordinated where to send wounded soldiers from Vietnam.
Massey, 71, grew up in Rantoul and graduated from Rantoul Township High School in 1965. A year later, he got a notice to take a physical.
Before he was drafted into the Army, he talked with an Air Force recruiter, took his tests and was assigned to medical administration.
After a stay in Wichita Falls, Texas, at the massive education center on Sheppard Air Force Base, he was sent abroad. But not to Vietnam.
In April 1967, he was sent to Peshawar, Pakistan, near the Khyber Pass, and the border with Afghanistan.
Well-known now because of the U.S. conflict with Afghanistan, Peshawar was obscure to Americans at the time. In fact, it was a home to the CIA spying on the Soviet Union.
Massey knew about the high-flying U-2 missions because of the 1960 missile downing of a U-2 that had flown from Peshawar.
"Everybody knew about Francis Gary Powers," the unfortunate U-2 pilot, Massey said.
Security was high on the base. He worked in a 24-bed medical unit treating service personnel; many of the sick or wounded were transported to Spain or Germany for further care.
Massey was able to get off the base for a short trip to the remote Khyber Pass, where many invaders had passed over the centuries.
Pakistan and India had particularly strained relations; there would be war in just a few years. He watched truckloads of Pakistani troops disappear over the hills to make sure the border with India was strengthened.
Most of the locals he met were Peshawar civilians with jobs at the air station, and they were the only non-Americans he talked to. He remembers women "covered from head to foot" among the workers.
After 15 months at the posting, he was sent to the (now greatly reduced in size) Kelly Air Force Base near San Antonio, Texas, where there was a medical airlift squadron. He spent two years there.
He also sold copiers and worked at the former Southland distribution center here, then at University of Illinois housing, before happily retiring with wife Pat.

Response to Saving Privacy
We need collective action, not individual self-protection.
Richard M. Stallman
The most important points in any position are the assumptions it is based on. You can see which side Reed Hundt is on when he studiously maintains neutrality with respect to Edward Snowden's whistleblowing. That is a clear rejection of the campaign against massive surveillance that Snowden's heroism made possible. Hundt asks, "Who watches the watchmen?" but he shrinks from the undeniable answer: whistleblowers do that job.
Another strange premise is about democracy. Democracy does not mean that "individuals are sovereign," though human rights do demand such sovereignty, up to a point. Democracy means that the people as a whole—not the noble, or the rich, or the male, or the white—control the state and its actions. We can't control actions hidden from us, so democracy depends on whistleblowers. But the state goes to great lengths, including prosecution, to punish whistleblowers. To make democracy effective, we must make whistleblowing so safe that whistleblowers do not need the courage and careful planning of a Snowden.
It is not sufficient to store the records about our communication outside the state's direct control. The United States now finds whistleblowers by looking at journalists' phone records, email contacts, and so on to find out who has talked with them. Labeling whistleblowing a crime provides the legal grounds to search these records, no matter where they are kept.
For democracy's sake, we must make sure those records are nowhere to be found. We must put an end to the accumulation of dossiers about people in general—that is, about people who are not visibly committing crimes and not subject to specific court-ordered surveillance. We must make sure that the state does not know in general where we go and whom we communicate with. (See the GNU Web site for more on this point, and technical recommendations for many systems.)
Instead of this full solution, Hundt proposes individual self-protection: use of privacy-enhancing technologies. Programs such as Tor, the GNU Privacy Guard, and GNUnet are useful, but they address only part of the problem. They can't protect you from being tracked by face recognition or portable tracking devices (cell phones) as you move around, from the phone company's records of who you called and who called you, or from credit card companies taking note of what you buy. Fixing this problem requires collective action.
But Hundt's most vicious assumption is that "almost everyone" would choose a total surveillance state as a way to "protect our families from harm." We used to think it proper to take risks to defend our freedom, but he dismisses that idea. What a sad end for the land of the free and the home of the brave.
The NSA's claim that its massive surveillance really protects us appears to be a lie, but even if it were true, the danger of terrorism in the United States is too small to justify sacrificing anything important. To the extent that it exists, its main cause is our own government's crimes, which inspire hatred. To prevent this, we need to make our democracy function, not sacrifice the rights it is based on.
These rights matter elsewhere, too. Every human being, U.S. citizen or otherwise, deserves human rights. It is not enough even for the United States to fully and honestly respect the rights of its own citizens. The government must not spy indiscriminately or without valid justification on people anywhere in the world.

I have very fond memories of Peanut Cookies, when I was a little girl, I sometimes goes to the coffee shop a.k.a Kopitiam in my hometown for breakfast with my maternal grandpa, my cousin and I will asked for a treat after we finished our meal. There were these huge glass jars with red color cover that have all the goodies inside, the old time version of tidbits. Those see through jars are very self explanatory, they never needed labels or advertisement, everyone knows what is inside -- some fried peanut crackers, pickled papaya soaked in colored vinegar, long shape orange color crackers which name unknown to me up till today, coconut biscuit, and of course, this peanut cookies.
It cost 5 cents per piece for this cookie then, not sure about the price now, and not even sure if those coffee shops still carry them!
I got this recipe from a fellow blogger years back, recreating and tasting it made me miss grandpa so much. Those were the days.
1. Blend together castor sugar and all purpose flour, set aside. Separate egg yolk from egg white, set aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl, using a spatula, knead together all purpose flour, castor sugar and peanut butter. Knead it with patience and add in cooking oil slowly, do not add all the oil in at one go, just use as needed.
3. Scoop out 12-15 gm of dough and roll it in hand to form a small ball, use your fingers to lightly gather the center of the ball to make an arch like shape, the ball now looks like a small mountain, this is to help even baking. Brush egg york on top of the cookie, and pressed down a piece of split peanut.
4 . Preheat oven to 370 F,baked for 8-10 minutes, leaving the oven door ajar, wait for about 10 minutes before removing the cookie from oven. DO NOT touch the cookie when it is still warm, they break easily.

He held batters to a batting line of .164/.208/.224. He appeared in four games in the postseason, working  innings, allowing three runs as the Dodgers won the 2020 World Series. With the victory, Kolarek earned his first ever World Series championship.

Oakland Athletics
On February 12, 2021, Kolarek was traded to the Oakland Athletics (along with Cody Thomas) in return for Sheldon Neuse and Gus Varland. He was designated for assignment on June 30, 2022. On October 13, Kolarek elected free agency.

In his major league career through 2022, he kept left-handed batters to a batting line of .190/.243/.260.  Between 2017 and 2022, he primarily threw an 89 mph sinker and a 79 mph slider, while also throwing an 83 mph changeup and a 92 mph fourseam fastball.

Los Angeles Dodgers (second stint)
On December 15, 2022, Kolarek signed a minor league contract with the Dodgers.

International career; Team Israel
Kolarek will be eligible to play for the Israel national baseball team in the 2023 World Baseball Classic, to be held starting in Miami during March 11–15, if it passes the first round. He would be playing for Team Israel manager Ian Kinsler, and alongside outfielder Joc Pederson and starting pitcher Dean Kremer, among others.

Personal
His father, Frank Kolarek, played in the minor leagues in the 1970s and 1980s. Adam married Melanie Rae Shapiro on November 11, 2017.

David Madore introduces 2011 candidate interviews
Elections, Issues
by David Madore
Click the VOTE button to see the candidate interviews for Clark County.
We are posting more candidates daily. Check each day, then vote for your favorite!
COUV.COM staff invited every candidate competing in a contested race for city or town council positions, or for mayor, in each of the eight cities in Clark County to come to share their views on seven different issues. We also invited candidates Craig Riley and Sharon Wylie, who are competing to represent the 49th legislative district.
David Madore, CEO Click his image to go to David
Topics included impact fees, taxes and expenditures, bus rapid transit, C-Tran management, light rail, growth vs. sprawl, and financial responsibility. We also gave candidates an opportunity to make an impromptu closing statement, in case they felt compelled to address different topics or share why they were running for office. We will be posting a couple of videos at a time, each day from Thursday, October 6 until they are all online well before ballots are mailed. Please check back daily.
A total of 21 candidates participated in our video interviews. The remaining candidates chose not to participate, despite multiple invitations by e-mail and phone. In order to be as fair as possible, each candidate was asked the same seven questions by a member of the COUV.COM staff they did not know personally. Each candidate could speak as long as he or she desired to fully answer each question. No candidate knew what questions would be asked before recording started.
Candidates agreed to keep the questions and topics confidential until after we started posting the videos on COUV.COM. We did not share the questions beforehand because we wanted to know what the candidates thought in their own words, not what a political consultant would advise them to say. We encourage you to ask each candidate about their experience with this project. Candidates were very complimentary and we think this will be very helpful to our community.
We understand that there are many more topics worth exploring and each city has its own unique issues. In retrospect, it may have been helpful to have tailored additional questions for each city. Perhaps, we can do that next time.
Some voters, and even some candidates, may think that some of these issues really do not apply to them and that they are only for the city of Vancouver. The fact is every city or town council member in Clark County is charged with the responsibility of dealing with each of these issues in one way or another, especially as it relates to matters of transportation and C-Tran.
Seven of the eight cities in Clark County (excluding Woodland) have representation on the C-Tran Board. In the case of the smaller cities, one board member represents two cities (Camas/Washougal, Battle Ground/Yacolt, and La Center/Ridgefield). Decisions that the C-Tran Board makes, such as proposing a new sales tax or spending two million dollars to study Bus Rapid Transit, impacts the smaller towns. C-Tran is a huge responsibility with a budget that is much larger than the smaller cities in Clark County. That is why we included the C-Tran questions for every candidate.
We based our questions on stories that were current at the time we started. Once we interviewed the first candidate, the questions remained fixed, even if the stories continued to evolve.
One example is Chuck's Produce. Part way through our process, the $1 million traffic impact fee that Chuck's initially received for a proposed store in Salmon Creek was reduced to $843,000. The five percent entertainment tax for a new minor league baseball stadium was also current at the time we started. If the stadium does not happen, the entertainment tax could still be an option that the county commissioners or individual city councils could adopt.
We all face a local private jobs crisis. What would each candidate do to open the floodgates for local private jobs? The answer to that question can be deduced by the sum of their answers that will encourage business growth or drive businesses away.
We intend to include a poll that will allow you to say who you support. Our software will only allow one vote per device. We ask you to indicate your choice only for the valid choices on your particular ballot.
We are here to serve our community. How are we doing? Please share your feedback with us so we can serve you better. If you like COUV.COM, please tell others about us and like us on Facebook. Thank you. We will also be posting information for and against ballot issues and allow you to show which measures you support or oppose. Our goal is to enable voters to cast informed votes November 8.

Intrathecal clonidine and the response to hemorrhage.
Intraspinally administered alpha 2-adrenergic agonists are being examined for postoperative analgesia, yet their effects on the hemodynamic response to acute hemorrhage have not been examined. In this study chronically prepared conscious sheep received thoracic intrathecal saline or clonidine 300 micrograms followed in 15 min by rapid removal of 1,000 ml blood. In saline-treated ewes blood pressure was maintained and heart rate steadily increased during hemorrhage of up to 700 ml blood, with further blood removal resulting in rapid decreases in both variables. In contrast, heart rate never increased and blood pressure was maintained only up to 400 ml blood loss in animals receiving intrathecal clonidine. Compared to saline controls, clonidine did not alter blood pressure or heart rate at the end of hemorrhage or during blood pressure restitution during the next hour. Clonidine inhibited the increase in plasma epinephrine at the end of hemorrhage without altering plasma norepinephrine, vasopressin, renin, or atrial natriuretic factor. Intrathecal idazoxan, a specific alpha 2-adrenergic antagonist, reversed clonidine's effect on blood pressure during hemorrhage. Intravenous DG-5128, a poorly lipid-soluble alpha 2-adrenergic antagonist, also reversed clonidine's effect and additionally completely blocked any reduction in blood pressure and heart rate during hemorrhage. These data suggest that intrathecal clonidine interferes with maintenance of blood pressure during hemorrhage, likely because of a spinal sympatholytic effect, but does not affect the ultimate decrease in blood pressure after rapid removal of 1,000 ml blood. This difference in effect during the two phases of hemorrhage can be explained by the relative importance of the sympathetic nervous system in each.

Excellent, authentic Malay food with great service. Enjoyed the food and casual ambiance.
I am from Singapore and I love food like Mee Rebus & Nasi Lemak! The reason why I rated 4 instead of 6 was because it depends on what you ordered? The pricing for Mee Rebus was worth it! The sauce was as good as when I had it in Singapore even though I had it for $2 in Singapore. I will totally order this again! I feel that the price for Nasi Lemak was overrated. The rice wasn't fragrant, not much ingredients as well. Portion was small. The Nasi Lemak rice was blended. I mean I ate better ones in Singapore for $5 or even the same price? The Cincau (Grass Jelly) drink that I had? It was utterly disappointing though. No taste at all. It was like soda water with jelly in it? I ordered Ondeh Ondeh. Texture was good. It was gooey and soft. BUT, the whole gist of Ondeh Ondeh was for the Gula Melaka to flow out when you bite it, I didn't get that. Once again, I tasted better ones in Singapore for a pack of 5 selling at $2. Overall, I will visit there again if I'm drying to have some Malay food and I will only order Mee Rebus and try some other stuff.
Had breakfast with a group of 12 on the weekend. Good selection available, with specials and lunch menu available from after 11.30am. The nasi lemak bungkus brought back memories of my staple of warung delicacies, and was a good portion. The rice was weak in the lemak (coconut milk) but sambal was tasty enough if not spicy. Kudos for serving the ikan bilis (anchovies) and peanuts separate to keep them crunchy, though I wouldn't have minded if it was altogether in the banana leaf wrapping. The fried beehoon and mee goreng also commendable. Portion size sufficient and not spicy - palatable to most Australian tongues. The winners were the Lontong Johor, pulut bakar, ketayap, ondeh-ondeh and kuih keria. The lemak gravy in the lontong had the right consistency and rich in flavour. Add the sambal and I was transported back to my favorite warung in old Malacca that served a similar style of lontong. The pulut bakar was very tasty and the sweet kuih had the right balance of gula melaka to the savory flavour of the dough. Teh and kopi tarik also commendable, though a little dilute. Will return to try their lunch menu and more!
MyRasa is one of my favourite restaurant. The food is authentic and the owners and staff are lovely. I have never tasted the same authenticity in other restaurants. The fish curry, mee rojak, fish cooked 3 ways are my favourites. My kids loved the chicken chop that comes with the authentic mushroom sauce. 😋😋 Also not forgetting their Teh tarik (milk tea).
This is our third time dining here. Our party of 5 enjoyed everything that was served. Two of our guests are visitors to Perth from and were impressed with the quality of food as well as the serving size. MyRasa is a place you must try if you're looking for delicious Malay cuisine.
The food at MyRasa is always tasty and of high quality and the relaxing atmosphere is great. I enjoy breakfast there on weekends and also prefer to go to MyRasa when catching up with friends.
MyRasa Restaurant was excellent ! The food was delisciuos and very authentic Malaysian cuisine. The service was excellent too ! The staff were amazing ! Thank you so much for looking after me and my friends (a party of ten people) !

Aug. 5: "Our Lady so sweet tonight…"
Message Posted August 6, 2014
August 6, 2014 A.D.
Our Lady revealed in Medjugorje that August 5 was Her real birthday. We share with you a little snapshot of the celebrations in Medjugorje and in Alabama.
Our Lady's Birthday Apparition, Medjugorje, August 5, 2014
Pilgrims began gathering at 4:30 P.M. outside the Chapel of the Two Hearts, Medjugorje visionary Marija's private chapel, for the birthday apparition of Our Lady Queen of Peace. For two hours those gathered prayed and wrote petitions to Our Lady. As pilgrims began to gather, a storm arose with thunder, and multiple lightning strikes shown in opposite directions of the sky. As the wind grew strong the bells of St. James Church rang out for some time through the village and the fields calling all to pray for protection from the storm. The tradition of the village is that every time a storm threatens, the church bells ring to call the villagers to prayer.
Caritas Community members from Alabama, with pilgrims from our pilgrimage group, having prayed the Marian Mysteries of the Rosary earlier today, grew excited as the storm came just as when Mary was born. After almost an hour, the storm passed with no rain. Several pilgrims walking through the vineyards just after the storm saw a beautiful rainbow in the sky.
As pilgrims continued to arrive, the Rosary began with messages of Our Lady read in between each decade. There was continuous prayer until the moment of apparition. The apparition lasted 4 minutes and 54 seconds. After the apparition, before Marija spoke, "Happy Birthday" was sung loudly and joyfully by all gathered.
Marija's description of tonight's apparition:
"In moment of apparition when Our Lady come, I recommend to Our Lady all us, all our intentions. Our Lady so sweet tonight and She come in gold dress, really gold dress, and She pray over us and I recommend all us, all our intentions all that we have in our hearts, and all those people recommend to us in our prayers. And Our Lady then blessed us, She prayed one other time over us. She said, "Go in peace, dear children." She make Sign of blessing and She leave."
Our Lady's Birthday, August 5, 2014
Marija's Chapel of the Two Hearts can be seen in the background amidst the thousands of pilgrims who are packed in and around Medjugorje visionary Marija's home. Marija and her husband Paolo, after building the chapel, gave it to Our Lady as a gift to Her on the 20th anniversary of Her apparitions in Medjugorje. They had prayed a novena to Our Lady humbly asking Her to name the chapel. Our Lady smiled at Marija's request and then held up two fingers and then traced a heart over Her heart. Instantly, the words "Chapel of the Two Hearts" came to Marija's mind. This apparition took place on June 24, 2001. This chapel, up until recently, has been the primary site of Marija's daily apparitions ever since. But on such a day as Our Lady's birthday, when Marija sends out an invitation for everyone in the village to attend, an altar is set up outdoors and a seemingly endless line of pilgrims pass through her gate. This unexpected gift, to be with Our Lady on the day of Her birthday apparition, is received with great joy in the heart of all the pilgrims. And as Marija expressed today, it is also a joy for Our Lady to be so surrounded by Her children and their affectionate love for Her.
Pilgrims who prayed the Marian Mysteries of the Rosary, mediations on the birth of Mary, written by A Friend of Medjugorje, were said to be excited when thunder pealed and lightning began striking within the village of Medjugorje today. The reason for this is that mystics who were given supernatural light into the birth of Our Lady have said that a great storm came just before Our Lady was born:
"It has been told that a violent storm arose the day of Mary's birth. Thunder roared, hail rained down and lightning flashed all around. But at the moment of Her birth, at the sound of her first cry, the storm was subdued and a most beautiful rainbow appeared in the sky that seemed to encompass the whole of Israel. A large star appeared shining as bright as a diamond and a full moon rose to take its place among Heaven's array, all of creation seemed to come alive at the entrance of Mary in the world."
From The Marian Mysteries of the Rosary by A Friend of Medjugorje
After the storm passed in Medjugorje today, a large rainbow appeared in the sky. Those who knew the story of Mary's birth were in awe of the signs from Heaven given on this day in Our Lady's village as they walked home through the fields.
This statue of Marija's has been in the presence of Our Lady, literally, thousands of times throughout the past three decades. It has followed her from her home where she grew up where she was given it several years after the apparitions began, to her home after she married, to finally rest in the Chapel of the Two Hearts. Marija placed the statue on an outdoor altar amongst the multitude who gathered around her for Our Lady's apparition today, August 5, for Her 2030th birthday.
"Dear children, today I am calling you to reflect upon why I am with you this long. I am the Mediatrix between you and God. Therefore, dear children, I desire to call you to live always out of love all that which God desires of you. For that reason, dear children, in your own humility live all the messages which I am giving you. Thank you for having responded to my call."
Community of Caritas, Alabama
The Caritas Community gathered in the Field the evening of August 4, 2014. It is understood that Mary's Eve, a celebration on August 4, that a Friend of Medjugorje was inspired to institute many years ago, will become a looked-to feast, in anticipation of Our Lady's birth. When one day, the world sees for itself the role that Our Lady has played not only in the history of salvation, but in this present history, love for Her will be celebrated with public feasts throughout the world. There are some today who are working to have the Church declare Our Lady as the Co-Redeemer. While this may be a noble intention, Our Lady calls us to make a place for Her in our hearts, that She be Queen of our Hearts. When that takes place, and the future events foretold at Medjugorje take place, and the world changes, the world and Church will declare to be the truth that which it has yet to see: That God intervened in the history of Man, and sent the Virgin Mary to fulfill Her mission as Co-Redeemer. When the realization of this takes place, Mary, whose birthday we just celebrated will be in every home, honored and loved.
Our Lady in Her message to Ivan on Monday night, spoke about Her children:
"…especially I rejoice when I see so many of my children who are happy through these days…"
One cannot help but think that She sees these children who gather everyday at the statue to honor the time of Her apparition, and what that will fruit for them in the future, and for the future of the world. These children here, playing amongst the rocks, are Her future apostles.

Lighthouse, The
Sexual content, nudity, violence, disturbing images and some language
Robert Eggers
"The Lighthouse" is a hypnotic and hallucinatory tale of two lighthouse keepers (Dafoe and Pattinson) on a remote and mysterious New England island in the 1890s. As an approaching storm threatens to sweep them from the rock and strange apparitions emerge from the fog, each man begins to suspect that the other has become dangerously unmoored. (Gary Reber)
Special features include commentary with the Co-Writer/Director Robert Eggers, the featurette "The Lighthouse: A Dark & Stormy Tale" (HD 37:47), four deleted scenes (HD 05:17), upfront previews and a digital code.
The 1.20:1 1080p AVC picture, reviewed on a Sony Bravia Z9D 4K Ultra HD HDR display, upconverted to 2160p with greater resolution and luminance, was photographed on Eastman film stock in black-and-white using the Panavision Panaflex Millennium XL2 camera system and sourced from a 4K master Digital Intermediate format. Film grain is not objectionable and is barely a factor in the presentation. The gray scale imagery is extremely dark with poor shadow delineation during scenes within the lighthouse's living quarters. Glimpses of candle and oil lantern light and natural light provide a sense of contrast. Blacks are deep but lack definition. The range of black and white creates a haunting image. Resolution is satisfactory but focus tends to be soft rather than detailed. The picture is generally satisfying and artistic, as well as filmic. (Gary Reber)
The DTS-HD Master Audio™ 5.1-channel soundtrack has been repurposed from the original theatrical monaural version. The sound is frontal focused, though, at times the music extends aggressively to the surrounds. Sound effects such as crashing waves, seagulls, and lighthouse belting sounds are at times intense and envelop the soundfield. The storm is very intense with pounding deep bass extension throughout, especially in the .1 LFE channel. Pounding rain and a loud fog horn enhance the tension. Atmospherics and Foley sound effects further enhance the realism of the setting. Dialogue is intelligible throughout with generally good spatial integration. This is a hauntingly dialogue-focused soundtrack with compelling atmospherics and powerful sound effects. (Gary Reber)
I read Widescreen Review because it has had a consistent editorial perspective since its inception: a no-compromise approach to making home theatre the best that it can be. I have read the magazine cover to cover since Issue 2. Despite staff and reviewer changes over the years, thanks to Gary's leadership this perspective has never changed. As new technologies are introduced, Widescreen Review always provides in-depth analyses of not just the technology itself, but the political and industry forces that may be forcing compromises in its development. You have always sounded the clarion call to stop compression madness or any other madness that may force us to accept a home theatre experience that falls short of what it could be. Thank you!

TCAPS Administration ignores the needs of 5000 TCAPS parents by refusing to reschedule the HR/Policy meeting from 1:30 p.m. to the late afternoon or 5:30 or 6:00 p.m. evening time, when ALL 64 Previous Meetings over the last 5-1/2 years were held. They will be discussing adding the "sexual orientation" (dangerous homosexual behavior) to policy, which is the "crown jewel" of homosexual activism in the schools, and it will greatly endanger your children.
Pastor shepherds -- before they realize that the 10000 TCAPS sheep are in grave danger from wolves who pretend to be promoting safety, but in actuality are promoting dangerous homosexual behavior to impressionable and idealistic children and young adults.
You may read TCAPS' Chris Davis' letter refusing our request to change the meeting time; she said: "It was difficult to find a time that worked for all committee members." (It's funny that in all the other 64 previous meeting times, NOT ONCE was early afternoon a convenient time for the Board, but now, when they are discussing adding the crown jewel of "sexual orientation", early afternoon happens to be the most convenient time.
Still, IT IS NOT A CONVENIENT TIME for 90% of the 5000 TCAPS parents. And when they are discussing a CRITICAL ISSUE such as this, the TCAPS Board SHOULD GO OUT OF ITS WAY TO ACCOMMODATE THE 5000 TCAPS PARENTS, whose children TCAPS is called to protect.
"not because of our creative ideas, it is not because of the merit of our positions, it is not because we care about children, and it is not because we have a vision of a great public school for every child. NEA and its affiliates are effective advocates because we have power."
TCAPS Dr. Jane Mohr stated on TV7&4 that Safety is the #1 goal at TCAPS.
We elected the TCAPS Board to power -- that's not a bad thing; however, they should use their power to PROTECT the students -- it must be more than just a slogan. By adding "sexual orientation", they will greatly endanger the students.
TCAPS should simply PROTECT ALL CHILDREN AT ALL TIMES, PERIOD! -- which is exactly what the co-founder of Bully Police (the largest U.S. anti-bullying organization in the USA) recommends.
You can speak for up to 3 minutes at the meeting to voice your opinion on TCAPS plan to add "sexual orientation" (homosexual behavior) to the non-discrimination policy.

The bilateral relationship between Romania and Germany, especially in regard to the German community in Romania and the Romanian community in Germany, as well as the European agenda in terms of Romania's preparations to assume the Presidency of the EU Council were discussed on Friday at a meeting of Romania's President Klaus Iohannis and the German senior federal official in charge with German immigrants and national minorities Bernd Fabritius.
"The President of Romania highlighted the special bilateral relationship between the two countries, defined by strong interpersonal ties and substantial economic and political cooperation. President Klaus Iohannis restated his firm conviction that the German minority in Romania, alongside the Romanian diaspora in Germany and the Romanian-born German ethnics are a strong binder between the two countries as well as a catalyst for bilateral and European co-operation. The Romanian President and the German senior official highlighted the significant role played by the German minority in the formation of the modern Romanian state, which has always been a loyal and trustworthy partner, as well as a positive factor in the development of the Romanian-German relationships. President Klaus Iohannis also pointed out that Romania is a model of good practice in the field of the protection of the national minorities' rights," the Presidential Administration informed in a press statement.
In his turn, Fabritius commended the good Romanian-German collaboration in promoting the rights of the peoples belonging to the German minority in Romania and emphasised the importance of further promoting a comprehensive minority policy, including during the term of Romania's Presidency of the EU Council.
Fabritius also made a brief presentation of the Romanian-German Intergovernmental Committee for Romania's German Ethnics, which is an important factor in strengthening bilateral co-operation, and underlined the beneficial role that the German minority in Romania still plays in the Romanian society. During the conversation, it was emphasised that the concrete projects initiated by the general framework offered by the committee have essentially contributed to the preservation of the identity and the economic and social development of both the German ethnics of Romania and the communities they belong to.


Marion "Suge" Knight has been arrested for murder in the hit-and-run death of a man in Compton, California Thursday night. The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department says Knight was booked at around 3:00 a.m. PT and is being held at the West Hollywood station on $2 million bail.
The Death Row Records founder apparently got in a fight on the set of a promotional shoot for the biopic Straight out of Compton, about the group NWA.
According to his attorney, James Blatt, Knight claims he was attacked by two people and while driving away, he struck his friend with his vehicle, killing him. Another man was injured in the incident.
The vehicle involved in the incident was described as a red Ford F-150 Raptor, similar to Knight's vehicle, authorities said.
Knight remained at large for a number of hours after the incident. KABC-TV reports he arrived at the L.A. County Sheriff's Department's West Hollywood station early Friday morning, where homicide detectives interviewed him.
Knight was already free on $500,000 bail after being accused last fall of stealing a paparazzo's camera.
In August, Knight was wounded in a shooting at a pre-MTV Video Music Awards party in Los Angeles.
Knight was also shot at a pre-VMAs party hosted by Kanye West in 2005.

O'Rourke: 'Hell yes, we're going to take your AR-15'
Traci Edwards | Friday, September 13, 2019
Democratic presidential candidate Beto O'Rourke responded late Thursday to what he claimed was a "death threat" from a Texas state lawmaker.
O'Rourke unveiled a proposal weeks after that shooting calling for a national gun registry, a nationwide gun licensing system and the mandatory buyback of assault-style rifles as part of his plan to curb gun violence and the rise of white nationalism.
"The high-impact, high velocity round, when it hits your body shreds everything insider your body because it was created to do that, so that you would bleed to death on the battlefield", O'Rourke said to raucous applause.
"Hell yes, we're gonna take your AR-15", O'Rourke, a former congressman from El Paso, Texas, tweeted during the debate.
The debate audience erupted in some of the loudest cheers of the night by the time O'Rourke finished.
O'Rourke has been blunt about the need to take powerful weapons off the streets.
Senator Kamala Harris of California praised O'Rourke, saying "God love you for standing so courageously in the midst of that tragedy".
But O'Rourke has earned the ire of many on the right and gun enthusiasts.
Some Twitter users noted that Robert Francis was also the name of Robert F. Kennedy, who was shot dead while running for the Democratic nomination for president in 1968.
O'Rourke was quick to reply to Cain's tweet.
"In case you forgot, people were just killed in El Paso", responded Mary E. Gonzales, a Democratic member of the Texas House. Clearly, you shouldn't own an AR-15-and neither should anyone else.
Other Twitter users posted that they had reported it and two people on the O'Rourke campaign told CBS News they checked in about it with the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The campaign declined to offer any additional comment, including any response to Twitter's decision to take down Cain's original tweet.
The Twitter policy that Cain violated, according to a Twitter spokesperson, was the rule that "You may not threaten violence against an individual or a group of people".
Speaking to reporters after the debate, O'Rourke said that Cain's comment "sure reads" like a death threat.
O'Rourke has argued for a mandatory buyback of assault weapons, among other gun control measures.

All solutions were warmed to space temperature prior to injection
All solutions were warmed to space temperature prior to injection. ethanol inhibition of adult neurogenesis. CB2R agonist HU-308 treatment did not create any significant switch in DCX+IR. Interestingly, neither ethanol nor CB1R agonist produced any alteration in cell proliferation in dentate gyrus as measured by Ki67+ cell populace, but cleaved caspase-3 positive cell figures improved following ethanol or ACEA treatment suggesting an increase in cell death. Conclusion Collectively, these findings suggest that acute CB1R cannabinoid receptor activation and binge ethanol treatment reduce neurogenesis through mechanisms involving CB1R. access to food and water. Experimental procedures were authorized by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) of the University or college of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and carried out in accordance with National Institutes of Health (NIH) regulations for the care and use of animals in study. For the ethanol experiment, subjects received either a single dose of ethanol (EtOH; 5.0 g/kg, i.g., 25% w/v in H2O) at a volume of 0.025 mL/g body weight ID 8 to produce a blood ethanol level of 100-160 mg% as previously described (Crews et.al., 2006) or a similar volume of Vehicle. For the cannabinoid experiments, all medicines were purchased from Cayman Chemical (Ann Arbor, MI) and stock solutions prepared as recommended by the manufacturer. SR141716 (SR1; 1.0 mg/kg, i.p.) and AM251 (1.0 mg/kg, i.p.) were supplied as a solid and dissolved in minimum amount volume of ethanol to prepare a stock answer (30 mg/mL and 14 mg/mL, respectively). JZL 195 crystal was dissolved in DMSO to produce a stock answer of 1 1.25 mg/mL and administered at 3.0 mg/kg, i.p. cannabinoid receptor type 1 (CB1R) agonist ACEA (3.0 mg/kg, i.p.) was supplied in methyl acetate and the organic solvent evaporated under nitrogen and dissolved in ethanol to produce a 20 mg/mL stock answer. The cannabinoid receptor type 2 (CB2) agonist HU308 was given at 15 mg/kg, i.p. All medicines were further diluted using a vehicle consisting of 5.0% ethanol, 5.0% emulphor (alkamuls-620; Rhone-Poulenc, Princeton, NJ), and 90% saline (0.9%; ethanol: emulphor: saline 1: 1: 18; (Wiley et al., 2006; Kinsey et al., 2013; Wiebelhaus et al., 2014; Gamage et al 2014). All cannabinoid compounds were given intraperitoneally (i.p.) at a volume of 10 L/g body mass. All solutions were warmed to space heat prior to injection. The control group received a similar i.p. injection of the same vehicle. The doses of the medicines were chosen based on the literature search for the doses of the compounds used in additional studies (Wilson et al., 2006, Wiley et al., 2006, Tsvetanova 2006, Walsh 2015). CB1R antagonist SR1 and AM251 was given 30 minutes prior to ethanol and/or CB1R agonist ACEA or JZL 195 administration in all experiments. The amount of ethanol present in the vehicle was insignificant after drug dilution. Animals were sacrificed 3 hr or 24 hr after the summary of treatment. Animal perfusion, cells preparation and immunohistochemistry Perfusion and mind cells preparation and immunohistochemistry methods were performed as explained early (Vetreno & Crews, 2015). Rabbit Polyclonal to NUMA1 Briefly, at the end of each experiment, animals were euthanized with sodium pentobarbital (100 mg/kg, i.p.) and transcardially perfused with 0.1 M phosphate-buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.4) followed by 4.0% paraformaldehyde in PBS. Brains were excised quickly and post-fixed in 4.0% paraformaldehyde for 24 h at 4 C followed by 4 days of fixation in 30% sucrose answer. Hippocampal cells sections were sampled between bregma -2.12 mm and -3.80 mm according to the atlas of Paxinos and Watson (1998) ID 8 yielding cells for analysis of the dentate gyrus throughout the dorsal hippocampus. Coronal sections (1:12 series) of 40 m were collected on a vibrating microtome (Leica VT1000S) and stored in cryoprotectant (30% glycol/30% ethylene glycol in PBS) at ?20 C until immunohistochemical labeling. Free-floating sections (every 12th section) were processed for immunohistochemistry following standard methods for DAB detection. Briefly, cells was washed in 0.1M PBS, ID 8 incubated in 0.3% H2O2 in PBS to inhibit endogenous peroxidases, and incubated inside a blocking answer (PBS, 0.1% Triton-X and 4% goat serum [MP Biomedicals, Solon, OH]) for 1 h. Cells was then incubated at 4 C for 24 h in main antibody (anti-DCX; 1:1000) or anti-Ki67; 1:500) from Abcam) diluted in obstructing answer. Sections were then washed with PBS, incubated in biotinylated goat anti-rabbit IgG for 1 h (Vector Laboratories, Burlingame, CA), and incubated.

Watch Winchester (2002) : Full Movie Online Free Winchester combines static 16mm historical photographs of the house, drawings, and laborious digital manipulation to convey a psychological portrait of the house. Accompanied by a moody soundtrack, the piece opens with a black-and-white shot of the architectural facade. Superimposed over the house, the silhouette of a gunfighter fills the frame, alluding to the Winchester legacy. As the film unfolds, both mansion and rifleman are eclipsed by veils of saturated color and kinetic abstractions. Painterly shapes resembling gunshot wounds morph into Rorschach–like inkblots and back again into rifle–bearing specters.


Sept. 1 reports from the Bureau of Labor Statistics on construction employment in August and from the Census Bureau on construction spending in July "show how much vigor private nonresidential construction has," said Ken Simonson, chief economist for the Associated General Contractors of America.
"BLS reported that construction accounted for 17,000 of the 128,000 net new payroll jobs that the non-farm economy added in August," he said in early September. "Over the past 12 months, all five BLS construction categories have grown faster than the tepid 1.3% growth rate for overall employment. Nonresidential building and specialty trades were both 4% higher, residential building climbed 3%, and residential specialty trades and heavy and civil engineering both added 2%. In a favorable omen for future construction, employment in architectural and engineering services rose again, bringing the 12-month gain to a robust 5%."
The Census report on value of construction put in place, he noted, showed a sharp 1.2% drop in the seasonally adjusted annual rate from June to July, but private nonresidential spending increased again. For the first seven months of 2006 compared to the same period last year, private nonresidential spending has risen 16% and public construction 10%.
"Even residential construction is still 4% ahead of last year's total for the first seven months, although I don't expect the final residential total for the year to be up," Simonson said.
Among major subcategories of private construction spending, the areas of greatest strength include: lodging, up 46% year-to-date; multi-retail - general merchandise stores such as "big-box" and discount retailers, shopping centers and malls - up 38%; hospitals, up 27%; manufacturing, up 24%; multifamily residential, up 20%; and warehouses, other than mini-storage, up 17%, Simonson added.
"Office construction is also gaining momentum, with a 12% increase, and electric power construction is reviving, with an 8% rise," he said.
On the public side, highway and street construction has a 17% increase so far this year, while educational construction spending is up 6%, Simonson said.
"These sound positive but are actually about level with last year in inflation-adjusted terms, given the 15% jump in producer prices for highway and street materials and the 8% rise in costs for nonresidential building materials," he noted.
"In the next several months, I expect private nonresidential construction to maintain its strong pace," Simonson said. "Private residential construction will be a mix of increasing rental projects and sharply falling single-family and condo construction. Public agencies will spend somewhat more, but many agencies will have to defer or redesign projects for which materials costs outstrip their budgets."

Eikamp ist ein Ortsteil in Oberodenthal in der Gemeinde Odenthal im Rheinisch-Bergischen Kreis.

Geschichte
Nach einer Urkunde aus dem Jahr 1294 gab es zu dieser Zeit das Gut Eikamp. Der Name bedeutet für sich allein liegende Weide. Hier wohnten Gerhard von Eykamp und sein Sohn Arnold. Um 1700 findet Hermann zu Eycamp Erwähnung, der über 14 Faschinen.und 42 Pfähle verfügte. Die Ortschaft war zu dieser Zeit Teil der Honschaft Scherf.

Die Topographia Ducatus Montani des Erich Philipp Ploennies, Blatt Amt Miselohe, belegt, dass der Wohnplatz 1715 als zwei Höfe kategorisiert wurde und mit Eikamp bezeichnet wurde.

Carl Friedrich von Wiebeking benennt die Hofschaft auf seiner Charte des Herzogthums Berg 1789 als Eikamp. Aus ihr geht hervor, dass Eikamp zu dieser Zeit an der Grenze zwischen Oberodenthal in der Herrschaft Odenthal und der Honschaft Bechen im bergischen Amt Steinbach war.

Unter der französischen Verwaltung zwischen 1806 und 1813 wurde die Herrschaft und die Ämter aufgelöst und Eikamp wurde teils politisch der Mairie Odenthal im Kanton Bensberg und teils der Mairie Kürten im Kanton Wipperfürth zugeordnet. 1816 wandelten die Preußen die Mairie Odenthal zur Bürgermeisterei Odenthal im Kreis Mülheim am Rhein und die Mairie Kürten zur Bürgermeisterei Kürten im Kreis Wipperfürth.

Der Ort ist auf der Topographischen Aufnahme der Rheinlande von 1824 als Ober Eikamp und Unter Eikamp und auf der Preußischen Uraufnahme von 1840 als Ober Eykamp und Unter Eykamp verzeichnet. Ab der Preußischen Neuaufnahme von 1892 ist er auf Messtischblättern regelmäßig als Eikamp oder ohne Namen verzeichnet.

Der Ort war also zeitweise aufgeteilt in Obereikamp und Untereikamp. Des Weiteren war er durch die Grenzlage geteilt in zwei Honschaften, Ämter, Bürgermeistereien und Kreise. Die Grenze zwischen dem Kürtener und dem Odenthaler Teil verlief entlang der Schallemicher Straße bis zur heutigen Bundesstraße 506, die dann auch Teil der Gemeindegrenze war. Untereikamp lag ganz im Kürtener Gebiet im Süden der heutigen Straße Zur Alten Linde.

Seit 1910 gehörte Eikamp (Odenthaler Teil) kirchlich zum Rektorat Herrenstrunden.

1927 wurden die Bürgermeisterei Kürten in das Amt Kürten überführt. In der Weimarer Republik wurden 1929 die Ämter Kürten mit den Gemeinden Kürten und Bechen und Olpe mit den Gemeinden Olpe und Wipperfeld zum Amt Kürten zusammengelegt. Der Kreis Wipperfürth ging am 1. Oktober 1932 in den Rheinisch-Bergischen Kreis mit Sitz in Bergisch Gladbach auf. 1975 kam der Kürtener Teil der Ortschaft aufgrund des Köln-Gesetzes zur Gemeinde Odenthal im Rheinisch-Bergischen Kreis.

1975 erbaute man in Eikamp eine neue Kirche, verblieb aber im Pfarrverband Herrenstrunden. Der Turm wurde erst später gebaut.
