In any case, it wasn't the rabid anti-Semitism that disturbed me; for some reason, I took no particular exception to this. No, what bothered me was the inconsistent portrayal of character. Shylock is incredibly clever and cunning throughout three and a half acts of this play and then turns into a bumbling idiot.
Because any fool with two brain cells to rub together would see that the way to get a pound of flesh without spilling any blood would be to scrape it off. While this wouldn't kill Antonio, which is of course the consummation most devoutly to be wished, it would be remarkably painful and, with any luck, leave scars.
Only loyalty to my brother is keeping me from turning straight in the face of such an awesome mind.
Burn the flesh sounds fun….
Your selection criteria for women is, in a word, frightening. I can only hope you apply different standards when selecting men….
You were reading Shakespeare when you were NINE????
I was just reading through your "best of" and stumbled upon your post about The Merchant of Venice. I've been putting off reading it all day. It must be a sign from God.
Funny,that. Those are the same women I'd turn lesbian for.

Jerome Charles Hillebrand
Posted: August 18, 2012 11:25 AM
Updated: December 31, 2019 10:12 PM
CROSS PLAINS – Jerome Charles Hillebrand, age 94, died on Wednesday, Aug. 15, 2012, at Agrace HospiceCare in Fitchburg. He was surrounded by his family and friends during his last days. Jerome was born on March 14, 1918, in Cross Plains, the son of John I. Hillebrand and Ida Schulenburg. He grew up on the Hillebrand farm on the edge of Cross Plains, now Bourban Road. He attended the new St. Francis School beginning in 1925, the very first year it opened. Jerome took part in the CCC program for 18 months from 1935 until 1936. He was in a camp near Fairchild. Their job was to build roads, dams and to plant trees. He was able to attend classes and received his eighth grade diploma from the Neilsville School District. On May 23, 1939, he married Cora Dresen. They spent their married life and raised their children in Cross Plains. Jerome worked at the Badger Ordinance Plant (Powder Plant) during World War II. While working shifts at the plant he took classes at MATC studying electrical work. The rest of his working life was as an electrician. Many of us will remember Jerome as "The Bird Man of Sherwood Forest". He is known across the United States for his knowledge of birds, both exotic and common. His wife, Cora, passed away in February 2009 at Heartland Country Village in Black Earth. Jerome has also lived there since June 2011.
Jerome and Cora were blessed with six children. He is survived by, Diana (Bernard) Long of Waunakee, James (Verna) Hillebrand of Cross Plains, Judy Sveum of Madison, Kenneth (Janice) Hillebrand of Cross Plains, Randall (Annette) Hillebrand of Kiev, Ukraine; five grandchildren, Diana, James, Judy, Kenneth and Randall; 19 grandchildren; many great-grandchildren; brother, Edward (Elizabeth) of Cross Plains; sisters-in-Law, Jeanne Hillebrand and Ginny Hillebrand both of Cross Plains. He was preceded in death by his wife; his parents; and sons-in-law, Ronald Hillebrand and Kenneth Sveum.
Jerome will be missed and fondly remembered for his knowledge of the history of Cross Plains. The family would like to thank Heartland Country Village for the loving care given to Jerome and to Cora during their stay. Many thanks go to Father Thomas Kelley and to Sister John Rose for their spiritual care during their last years.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at ST. FRANCIS XAVIER CATHOLIC CHURCH, 2947 Thinnes Street, Cross Plains at 10:30 a.m. on Monday, Aug. 20, 2012, with Father Thomas Kelley presiding. Burial will be at St. Francis Xavier Catholic Cemetery. Visitation will be held at the church from 9:00 a.m. until the time of the service on Monday.


LYNCHBURG, Va. – No. 9/11 Shenandoah University opened the defense of its ODAC baseball title Thursday afternoon with an 8-1 victory over Bridgewater College in a game played on the Liberty University campus.
Shenandoah, 31-8 and the tournament's No. 1 seed, scored six runs in the first inning and two more in the fourth to take a commanding lead over Bridgewater (21-18).
The Hornets jumped all over Eagles starter Ryan Leake (4-5) for six runs on five hits in the first inning; a crucial error at second base allowed five of those runs to be unearned.
Shenandoah sent 11 men to the plate in the frame with leadoff hitter Joe Coleman getting two hits. Coleman led off the game with a single to center and then drove in the final two runs with a single through the left side.
The offense was more than enough for senior Michael Scimanico as the southpaw celebrated being named All-ODAC for the third time in four seasons with seven strikeouts in 6.0 innings pitched.
Scimanico's first strikeout, of Cavin Clyde in the first inning, broke the single season record at SU that was co-held by Scimanico and Greg Van Sickler '11.
After loading the bases with no outs in the seventh, Scimanico turned it over to classmate Ryan Mossman for the final nine outs.
Mossman earned picked up the three inning save by scattering two hits in his 3.0 innings pitched. In the ninth, Mossman benefitted from a double play as right fielder Abel Arocho gunned down Clyde at third base as he attempted to tag on a Brett Jones fly out.
The twin killing was one of two double plays the Hornets turned in the contest.
Eight of the nine SU starters had at least one hit with Coleman and Tristan Baker each getting two hits.
Coleman and Jake Loew both had a pair of RBIs. Loew had an RBI groundout in the first and a run-scoring single to right in the fourth.
The win pushes SU into a 2:30 Friday contest against the loser of the Washington and Lee versus Hampden-Sydney contest.


UBS Securities analyst Steven Milunovich said there could be room for iGlass - that is, Apple's take on a Google Glass-type headset.
Augmented reality is one of Apple's big new areas of focus, which it highlighted earlier this month at its Worldwide Developers Conference. But how will Apple use AR, which involves using a screen to overlay digital objects onto the real world? A new report from UBS Securities analyst Steven Milunovich raises some interesting possibilities.
Apple has already shown at what AR can do — by demonstrating how to use an iPhone to overlay an interactive game board on a real table, for example. But Milunovich suggested 10 additional applications for Apple's AR play, including some we've already seen come to life, such as games and retail. He also sees applications for job training, facial recognition, medical diagnoses and the ability to direct people to safety in case of emergency situations, similar to what Google Glass did to help firefighters find the fastest exits from a building.
Apple did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the report.
Combining various applications could also be useful, Milunovich wrote. "Emergency first aid, a combination of remote healthcare and instantaneous education, could save lives. There are legal issues that would need to be overcome but seem solvable," he said.
Further down the road, Milunovich said, there could be room for iGlass - that is, Apple's take on a Google Glass-type headset. Could Apple succeed where Google failed? Advances in headset technology, plus some classic Apple design chops, could make the devices more appealing to the non-geek, Milunovich indicated.
The market for augmented-reality glasses is expected to grow over the next several years. International Data Corp. predicted this week that the market for AR and virtual reality will grow from 10 million headsets in 2016 to 100 million in 2021. AR will be slightly behind VR, the firm said, but analysts added that most consumers will probably get introduced to the concept through their smartphones.
The tools for augmented reality that Apple introduced earlier this month open up a range of possibilities to developers and highlight the tech giant's interest in the area, which Apple chief executive Tim Cook once said was "a big idea like the smartphone." Apple will need to impress with its 10th-anniversary iPhone, Milunovich said, and in a best-case scenario, a truly innovative iPhone would help the company reclaim its mantle for innovation.
But it could face some fierce competition. On Tuesday morning OnePlus announced its much-hyped OnePlus 5, which sports premium power and Android simplicity at $479. If rumors are true, that's about half the price of what we could see from the next iPhone. It's also far cheaper than the iPhone 7 Plus, which sports the same size 5.5.-inch screen and starts at $769.
Playing up the AR features for the iPhone - using Apple's innovative design techniques - could be one way to further push Apple to the front of the pack, Miunovich said. The smartphone screen could become a tool for making users more aware of the wider world rather than distracting them from it.
"[We] can picture the phone looking like a clear piece of glass when looking through the camera," he said in the note. "Rather than staring down at a screen while we walk across the street or stand in line, we would be far more engaged with the world around us."

MPs: All energy tech should compete in single auction for low cost power
The UK Government should allow all technologies to compete in a single, "technology-neutral" auction to supply electricity at the lowest possible cost to consumers. That's the suggestion from the House […]
Priyanka Shrestha
The UK Government should allow all technologies to compete in a single, "technology-neutral" auction to supply electricity at the lowest possible cost to consumers.
That's the suggestion from the House of Lords Economic Affairs Committee (EAC), which believes consumers may be paying "unnecessarily high costs" to meet the UK's interim carbon budget targets.
The carbon budget is a legally binding legislation that places a restriction on the total amount of greenhouse gases the UK can emit over five-year periods.
The group of MPs add technological advances could bring the cost of renewable energy down substantially as shown by the "dramatic" recent falls in the cost of solar and offshore wind.
They are calling on the government to establish an Energy Commission to ensure the auctions have independent oversight and are scrutinised carefully.
They believe constant interventions by successive governments in the electricity sector has led to an "opaque, complicated and uncompetitive market that fails to deliver low cost and secure electricity".
The Committee adds the three objectives of energy policy – security of supply, affordability and decarbonisation – are "not complementary at present" and achieving them have come at a high cost to the consumer.
It is urging the government to restore competition to fix the electricity market as well as publish its contingency plans for Hinkley Point for how it will make up the capacity due to be provided by the plant in case it doesn't succeed or is delayed.
It identified two key failures in the current market:
There is currently a narrow amount of spare capacity, with growing concerns about the deliverability of new nuclear putting further pressure on this margin in the longer term.
Costs to consumers and businesses are rising – prices have increased by 58% since 2003 and industrial prices are the highest in Europe.

The MPs add high industrial prices have led some energy intensive companies to relocate abroad and believe low carbon policies are a factor in the high prices.
EAC Chair Lord Hollick said: "Poorly-designed government interventions, in pursuit of decarbonisation, have put unnecessary pressure on the electricity supply and left consumers and industry paying too high a price.
"Hinkley Point C is a good example of the way policy has become unbalanced and affordability neglected. It does not provide good value for money for consumers and there are substantial risks associated with the project.
"We would like to see the government step back from the market and allow all generating technologies to compete against each other."
He adds renewables will continue to play a crucial part in energy policy and urges the government to support new clean technologies so they can be commercially viable.
The Committee also suggests establishing a new National Energy Research Centre to help the UK "catch up" with other countries in the race to find cost-effective solutions to global energy challenges.
The Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS) said keeping the lights on is "non-negotiable".
A spokesperson added: "Our top priority is making sure UK families and businesses have secure, affordable energy supplies. Through our ambitious Industrial Strategy Green paper, we are investing in energy innovation to bring down costs over the long term.
"Policies, such as the Energy Company Obligation, Warm Home Discount and minimum standards for boilers and energy using appliances, have helped to improve energy efficiency, reducing consumption and driving down bills. Equally, we have a clear expectation that energy companies should treat all their customers fairly – and the government is prepared to act wherever markets are not working for consumers."

John Madden Oakland Raiders
John Madden began his pro football coaching career in 1967 as the Oakland Raiders' linebackers coach. After two seasons, he was elevated to head coach. At 32 years of age when he was hired, he became the youngest head coach in the American Football League. In his first year at the Raiders' helm, Madden earned American Football League Coach of the Year honors as he led the team to a 12-1-1 record and an AFL Western Division title.
Madden coached the Raiders for 10 seasons, posting a regular season record of 103 wins, 32 losses and 7 ties. During that time, he guided the team to seven Western Division titles, including five in a row from 1972 to 1976. Under Madden's guidance, Oakland never experienced a losing season. Madden's Raiders made eight playoff appearances, including a 37-31 six-quarter AFC Divisional Playoff win over the Baltimore Colts in 1977. Perennial winners, the team never finished with fewer than 8 wins in the then-14 game season (8-4-2 in 1970, 1971).
Six times in 10 seasons, Oakland recorded 10 or more victories. In 1976, the coach guided his team to a near-perfect 13-1 record to win the AFC Western Division. The success continued in the post-season with wins over New England in the divisional playoff game and a commanding 24-7 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers in the AFC Championship Game. Madden and the Raiders capped the 1976 season with a 32-14 win over the Minnesota Vikings in Super Bowl XI. Between the 1976 and 1977 seasons, the Raiders won 17 consecutive games, one short of the then-NFL record for consecutive wins.
Madden's .759 regular season winning percentage ranks as highest ever among coaches with 100 career victories. Only Hall of Fame coaches George Halas and Curly Lambeau had reached 100 career wins at an earlier age.
Before coaching in Oakland, Madden was the defensive coordinator at San Diego State, from 1964-1966, where the Aztecs were ranked first among small colleges with a 26-4 record. From 1960-1963 he coached at Hancock Junior College in Santa Maria, California. Madden started on both offense and defense as a player for California Polytechnic College at San Luis Obispo in 1957 and 1958, and was voted to the All-Conference team. The Philadelphia Eagles selected him as a future choice in the 21st round of the 1958 NFL Draft, but a knee injury in his rookie season prematurely ended his playing career.

John Madden Enshrinement speech
Pro Football Hall of Fame Field at Fawcett Stadium
Al Davis (presenter):
It's always great to come back to the Hall of Fame. Today it's a very emotional and inspirational experience for me to present the great John Madden into the enshrinement in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
John Madden, a brilliant coach, a loyal and trusted friend, a Raider. His record is self explanatory. 103 victories in 10 years is unparalleled in National Football League history. The Raiders always wanted to have the best organization in professional sports, wanted to have the best players, the best coaches playing in the best games, have the best plays, have the best record in professional football.
Some 40 years ago, I hired a 32 year old coach to carry the torch for the Raiders and do all the things that I just talked about that we wanted to do.
John Madden over the 10 seasons of his coaching career led the Raiders to the playoffs eight of those years, including seven division championships, bringing the Raiders their first World Championship. John's .759 regular season percentage ranks as the highest ever with coaches in the National Football League.
John coached in the golden era of great coaches. In his 10 years, John coached against many who are enshrined in this Hall of Fame. Don Shula of Miami. Chuck Noll of Pittsburgh. Tom Landry of Dallas. Weeb Ewbank, Sid Gillman, Hank Stram, Gil Brandt, Bud Grant, and others who are enshrined in this Hall of Fame.
John's first professional head job, he was 32 years old. John did what you would call the impossible. In his 10 years of coaching against these great legends, he won more games than he lost against every Hall of Fame coach in this great shrine here in the National Football League.
His record was the Raiders record of 36 16 2 against those great coaches. Dominating the stage that was Monday Night Football, Madden's teams had a record of 11 1 1. And, boy, did the Raiders dominate Monday Night Football.
I told you we wanted to play in the greatest games, we wanted the greatest plays. You all remember the "Immaculate Reception." You all remember the "Heidi" game. You all remember "Sea of Hands," the "Holy Roller," "Ghost to the Post," the Lytle fumble, the miracles of George Blanda. The man on the sideline during all those events that have become synonymous with Raider football was John Madden.
He loved the game. He loved his team. He loved the Raiders. He loved this league. You can see it today in everything he does with his games and his TV work. He loved the AFL and the NFL, and especially his players.
At a time when our country needed it, John Madden saw no color. The Raiders, more than any other organization, politically, football, sports, led the fight for diversity. John Madden was in the middle of that fight.
It was pretty tough in those days, in the '70s and early '80s, to lead that fight. But the Raiders had one thing in mind: we wanted to win, and to win you had to have the best players. So, as I said, you saw no color.
Nine Raider legends, nine are in this Hall. The indestructible Jim Otto, he's here today. Great clutch player George Blanda. The undefeated Willie Brown, who was only beaten by father time as a cornerback. The magical hands of Fred Biletnikoff. The famed Highway 63 and 78. Gene Upshaw, president of the Players Association. Art Shell, head coach of the Raiders. Ted Hendricks is here today, the great linebacker. And, of course, the ghost to the post, Dave Casper, along with myself, have waited patiently for some 25 years for John to join us as enshrined in this Hall of Fame.
We recognize you, Virginia Madden, that's John's wife. His sons Mike and Joey. They were a football family. So that John could pursue his dreams. When you worked for Al Davis, you worked for the Raiders, there was no time for golf, there was no time for the kids, there was one thing: Raider football, silver and black football.
Virginia, you were there when it was important; we'll be there for you. Today is a day when our heroes of the past become the legends of the future. I've said this before, time never really stops for the great ones. We wrap them in a cloak of immortality and remember what great people they were.
It's a great inspiration for me to come to this Field of Dreams every year. I've had the honor to present nine other people, eight who played for the Raiders, one who played for the San Diego Chargers, the great Lance Alworth. But I love to come here because I wanted to pay tribute to this great class. I wanted to say hello once again to the great players behind me in whose glory we all shared those legends.
It has always, as Harry Carson said, brought a realization to the Raiders that we owe a debt to these great people behind us. And, as I've said before, the Raiders will never forget that day.
But let's go back to Oakland for a moment. Let's go back to the 1970s. Let's fill that stadium one more time with the staff and the administrative people who poured their heart and soul into the Raiders. Let's go back to the great Raider warriors who are here today, and to those who are no longer with us, but whose memories we cherish, and those great warriors who are watching up there today who will lead us in the future.
I say let's line you up under the goalposts one more time, one more time, and have you introduced all individually once again to the roar of that Oakland crowd. We can never forget those great moments. The roar would be deafening to see you trot out in those black jerseys, silver helmets.
John Madden, the chill goes through my body as I hear that roar and think of all those special people, but seeing you, John, down on the sidelines prowling those sidelines, yelling at officials, that flaming red hair, those arms moving left and right, screaming at Raider players, and most of all, winning football games.
But that is fantasy. Fantasy isn't the answer here today. But what is not fantasy is you coming up to this podium to be enshrined into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Ladies and gentlemen, the great John Madden.
John Madden:
Wow, wow, wow. You know, you always think of what it would be like if you are ever enshrined into the Hall of Fame. People say, What are you going to say when you get up to the podium? I tell them, I don't know. I'll tell you what I get up there. And right now, I don't have I got like numb, you know, a tingle from the bottom of my toes to the top of my head.
I mean, this is so special. All the guys, talk about who is going to break up. I started to break up when Al Davis was talking. If they have a contest or any bet, I knew I was going to lose that one anyway.
I just wanted to take this first moment just to make a memory and say how special this feeling is. To be in here, you know, in Canton with these great people of Canton, Ohio. You can't believe the job that they do. It's not only today. I mean, the game, the parade. They have 100,000 people at the parade at 8:00 in the morning. This is a special place.
This is a celebration of football. When you celebrate pro football, it has to be here in Canton, Ohio, because this is where the NFL started. I want to thank you people, all the pro football fans, the pro football writers that voted me into the Hall of Fame, led by Frank Cooney and Ira Miller, a special thanks to them.
But everyone that made that possible, it was a long wait, but it was a wait, you know, when you finally get in, it's made it all worth while, because the feeling is so special and you appreciate it so much more.
The class that I go in with Harry Carson, Rayfield Wright, Warren Moon, Reggie White, Sara, Troy Aikman, is such a great thing. I'm proud to be in this class, because we're always going to be connected with each other. We'll always be the Class of 2006. That will be forever. I'll tell you, these are all good people, good guys. I am proud as hell to go into this 2006 Hall of Fame class with these guys.
Then the Hall of Famers behind me, that's what it's all about. I was reading the NFL stats and history book. That's what you do when you ride a bus. When you don't fly, you read big old thick books like that. But they had a chapter on history. The first page in the chapter of history was a list of the Hall of Famers. I said, That's right, they got it. That is our history.
The players that played before us, the players that played when they didn't have face masks, when they had leather helmets, when we got this thing started, the players that played in smaller stadiums, didn't have the medical thing, didn't have anything. They laid the foundation for this great game, and we should never forget it.
I say the NFL teams, you ought to honor your history more. Sometimes we tend to get caught up in the players, the games now. Honor your history. Bring back the Hall of Famers. Bring back their teammates. Let the fans show their appreciation to the history.
I know going in with these guys is so special. We always talk about immortality. Some of us think maybe we will be immortal, that we'll live forever. When you really think about it, we're not going to be.
But I say this, and this is overwhelming, mind blowing, that through this bust, with these guys, in that Hall, we will be forever. You know, when you think of that, it just blows your mind. It's forever and ever and ever.
You have to stay with me a moment on this one. This is a little goofy here. You're going to say, There is old Madden being goofy again. But I started thinking about this after I got voted into the Hall of Fame. The more I think about it, the more I think it's true. Now I know it's true and I believe it.
Here is the deal: I think over in the Hall of Fame, that during the day, the people go through, they look at everything. At night, there's a time when they all leave. All the fans and all the visitors leave the Hall of Fame. Then there's just the workers. Then the workers start to leave. It gets down to there's just one person. That person turns out the light, locks the door.
I believe that the busts talk to each other. I can't wait for that conversation, I really can't. Vince Lombardi, Knute Rockne, Reggie, Walter Payton, all my ex players, we'll be there forever and ever and ever talking about whatever. That's what I believe. That's what I think is going to happen, and no one's ever going to talk me out of that.
These guys are going, Oh, no, hope I don't have to put up with his BS for an eternity.
This is a celebration. It has to be fun. To have Al Davis here is something special. I mean, if it weren't for Al, I wouldn't be here. He was a guy that gave me an opportunity. He was a guy that hired me 40 years ago, brought me into pro football. He was a guy that made me a head coach when I was 32 years old. I had two years of pro coaching experience.
Who the heck names a guy 32 years old as a head coach? Al Davis did. But he not only named me head coach, he stood behind me and he helped me and he provided me with players, with great players. As he was saying, nine of the players are in the Hall of Fame. I mean, those are the types of players that he provided me with.
He stood behind me not only the 10 years I was the head coach, but he stood behind me for the last 40 years. Al Davis is a friend, always has been a friend. I remember I had the opportunity to induct him into the Hall of Fame. At the time I said, you know, talking about loyalty, what a guy Al Davis was. I said that he's the guy, you know, if you had anything happen, you had one phone call, who would you make that phone call to? I said it would be Al Davis.
All these years later, I got an opportunity, I got voted into the Hall of Fame, I had a phone call to make for a presenter, and I called Al Davis.
I just talked to my mom. She's watching. Hi, mom, I love you. I was talking about how excited I am, how I haven't slept in three days, my mind is mush. She just said, me, too. She has the same feelings. She's not right here, but she's here in spirit. She's a special person that's been with me for the 70 years of my life. I know that my dad, who died in 1960, is up there looking down and laughing.
My mom's probably laughing right now, too, because when I was like a sophomore in high school, I was playing in summer baseball. I was playing on three or four different teams. I told my dad, I'm going to drop a couple of these because I want to get a job to make some money. My dad said, I'll give you a couple bucks, go caddie, make a few loops, you'll be okay. He said, Don't work. Once you start work, you're going to have to work the rest of your life.
My dad worked hard. He was a mechanic. He worked hard. The reason I say that he's up there laughing right now is because I listened to him and I continued to play, and I have never worked a day in my life. I went from player to coach to a broadcaster, and I am the luckiest guy in the world.
My sisters, Dolores and Judy, they were there with me. They supported everything that I did, because life with me as a kid was just a locker room. Every day was recess. They knew that. They went along with it, supported everything. I love them and I appreciate that.
If there was a Hall of Fame for families, my family would be in the Hall of Fame. My wife, Virginia. My two sons, Joe and Mike.
They talk about how hard coaches work. They work 18, 20 hours a day. They sleep on a couch. They don't come home. You know, that's not the hard job. The hard job is a coach's wife, believe me. The job of the coach's wife, she has to be mother, father, driver, doctor, nurse, coach, everything, because the coach is out there working.
When anyone is appreciated, they have to appreciate their wife. I have the greatest in Virginia. Thank you. Stand up, you deserve it. After all those years putting up with me, you deserve to stand up and take a bow on this day.
And my two sons, Mike and Joe, I'm so proud of them. They're not only my two sons, but they're my two best friends. Just everything that they do. When they were kids, I used to take them to practice on Saturdays, I'd take them to the Pro Bowl. I coached the Pro Bowl way too many damn times. I used to take them to the Pro Bowl, Super Bowl, every time I could. Those were special times.
As I look back now on my coaching career, I think of my family, I think of the days that we spent together. I say this to coaches everywhere: If you ever have a chance to take your kids with you, take them. Don't miss that opportunity. Because when it's all over and done with, when you look back, those are going to be your fondest memories.
When you go in the Hall of Fame at my age, then you have kids who have wives, then they have kids. Mike's wife is Noelle. Joe's wife is Wendy. Between them, they've given me five grandkids that I love to death. They're the love of my life. They're five, four, three, two, one. Sam, Jack, Jesse, Aidan and McKenna. That's what it's all about. It's about family and having them and having them here, with your team.
I go into the Hall of Fame as a coach. I know that I go into the Hall of Fame because of my players and what they did. I'm so proud. Al already introduced the players that are in the Hall of Fame behind me. If they'd just stand up. All my players that are out there, there's between 30 and 40 ex Raider players.
My family, stand up. Just take your day. I mean, you remember. You remember all these guys that did all these things. No, no, stay up. This is our day in the sun. Doggone it, take it. If we're here, stay up and take it. You guys stand up and take it, too. Fred Biletnikoff, Big Ben Davidson. This is what it's all about. These are the guys, I go in here. No, no, stand up, Ben.
All of a sudden, I mean, 30 or 40 years ago, they were ready to hit anything. Let's go to the party, let's do all this. Now they want to sit down.
Stand up, enjoy the moment. This is ours. They can't take it away from us. They can't ever take this away from us. Thanks to all of you. The whole bunch of you, I love you. Thank you very, very much. You remember all those great Raider names in the '70s? We had such special fans, the whole thing. It was just something, you know, that I'll never forget. We'll have a party after, too. Don't worry about it. We'll go through and...
It's been a great road from Madden's Lot in Daly City, John Robinson. John, who would believe this, huh? This is amazing. Jefferson High School with my first real coach, Joe McGrath. Then Roy Hughes at Cal Poly. My roommate Pat is here, my college roommate. Philadelphia Eagles, Norm Van Brocklin had a great influence on me. Hancock College with Al Balder. Then to San Diego State with a great coach that someday will be in here, Don Coryell. He had a real influence on my coaching. Joe Gibbs was on that staff, too.
Then we went to the Oakland Raiders, John Rausch was the head coach, Ollie Spencer, Tom Dons, Charlie Sumner, John Palancheck , Joe Scanelli, Tom Flores came later, all those great coaches, John Robinson, I thank you all.
Again, you go in as a coach, but you take your players and your assistant coaches with you.
It's been so long that I had a pretty good road afterwards also. I ride a bus. I don't fly. The road has been with Dave Hahn, my first bus driver who passed away, Willie Yarborough. Joe Mitchell. I spend so much time with them that they're part of my team now and my family.
Then Sandy Montag is my agent. He's been with me for over 20 years. You know, I mean, agent, smagent. He's a friend, a very good friend. I thank him for everything that he's done for me.
My years at CBS and FOX were pretty good with Pat Summerall, you know, that team, Bob Stenner, Sandy Grossman. I say I'm the luckiest guy in the world. I go to ABC, now NBC with Al Michaels, Fred Gaudelli, Drew Eskoff. By the way, we have a game right over here tomorrow night.
You talk about a full weekend. I mean, man, they have dinners, parades, induction ceremonies, then a game tomorrow night which will be broadcast, the first one I do with NBC.
I just want to say in closing that it's been a great ride. I want to thank everyone who has been along for any part of it. Speaking of great rides, I was lucky enough to be carried off the field after we won Super Bowl XI. I was told it took like five or six guys to lift me up, then they dropped me. But that's okay, because that was me and that was them. They aren't going to carry me off. You carry him off for a while, boom, you dump him on the ground. But it was the happiest moment of my life.
Today feels like the second time in my life that I'm being carried off the shoulders of others. Yet instead of off the field, it's into the Hall of Fame. Instead of five or six guys today, I ride on the shoulders of hundreds of friends, coaches, players, colleagues, family. I just say this, I thank you all very much. This has been the sweetest ride of 'em all. Thank you.

Home/News/DAWN warns authorities of systematic executions
DAWN warns authorities of systematic executions
The Organisation "Democracy for the Arab World Now" (DAWN) warns of the arbitrary execution of the detained young man Abdullah Al-Huwaiti.
The organisation said that Al-Huwaiti is facing death as a result of a crime that occurred when he was a minor aged 14. It notes that this is a new violation in addition to the growing list of violations of the Saudi judiciary.
The Tabuk Court had issued a death sentence against Al-Huwaiti in October 2019. Compensation of $350,000 had been paid to the victims, on charges of participating in a robbery that led to the death of a soldier, despite the fact he was a minor at the time.
The organisation stressed that the accusations against Al-Huwaiti lack sufficient tangible evidence, and emerged against the background of torture and coercion extracted from him.

Edwins beginnings in Shaker Square captured in 'Knife Skills' documentary
Updated Oct 3, 2017 ; Posted Oct 3, 2017
Gallery: Knife Skills
By Marc Bona, cleveland.com
CLEVELAND, Ohio - It was a chance meeting five or six years ago over meatloaf when restaurant owner Brandon Chrostowski met filmmaker Thomas Lennon.
They were in a friend's apartment in New York when Chrostowski told Lennon about his plans to open Edwins, a French restaurant in Shaker Square that is staffed by former inmates.
Chrostowski's gut feeling about Lennon was critical. Not anyone, the filmmaker learned quickly, was going to be allowed in to chronicle the workers in his restaurant.
"I have turned down six media shows," Chrostowski said. "They don't have any integrity."
But Chrostowski saw in Lennon a filmmaker not interested in ratings or celebrity attention. So he granted access for Lennon, and the end result is a 40-minute short-subject documentary called "Knife Skills" that will open the Chagrin Documentary Film Festival this week. It's also been submitted to the invitation-only San Francisco Film Society - considered an Oscars precursor - and won best audience award for short doc at the Traverse City Film Festival this year.
It's about the launch of the restaurant, but at its heart and soul it is about the men and women who are hustling through a second chance in life by way of artichauts a la barigoule, foie gras and fromage.
Lennon eschews gimmicky effects, relying instead on clear and smart superimposing menu shots when appropriate between candid interviews of the aspiring workers, whom he calls "the human face of re-entry."
With a title playing on 'life skills,' the film isn't preachy. It does what's best for the viewer: It informs.
"I tried to let the story unfold in front of the camera and not bring a lot of baggage to it," Lennon said. "I was not bringing any kind of preconceived political agenda to the story. I met this man by chance. Honestly, I recognized it opportunistically as a good film story and followed it wherever it would go. I think that lack of agenda on my part which in some sense reflects my inexperience or naivete really ended up being an asset to the film in retrospect."
Lennon understood Chrostowski's position right away: "His view was 'My job is to protect the trainees who are coming in. It is absolutely not my job to provide general entertainment.' That was not his agenda. He was ferocious about that; I respected that. I appreciated the risk he took and the people who worked there took."
Chrostowski views the film as "a springboard to getting the message out to so many people to battle back this perception of what a former inmate looks like."
Chrostowski's life has been a whirlwind revolving around Edwins. His business plan came to be in 2004, the restaurant was incorporated in 2007, and it opened in 2013. Monday, he returned after a five-month sabbatical to run for mayor. With Edwins, he braved the doubts some people had.
"It feels like a journey," he said. "The last couple of years have flown by. It's taken a third of my life."
While lengths of documentaries often correlate to their subject matter, Lennon should be lauded for brevity, the result of a challenging editing process to be sure.
"Everyone in my field says 'I'm doing a feature documentary, I'm doing a feature documentary,' " he said. "That seems out of date to me in this era of people streaming in their homes. I wanted to do the absolute minimum to convey my story. As the great singer Billie Holiday said, 'Get off the stage while you can.' "
Lennon, who won an Oscar 10 years ago for "The Blood of Yingzhou District," came to love Cleveland, becoming a regular AirTran customer jetting between New York and Akron. He spent 60 to 80 days here over a one-year period. Home was a Motel 8.
He said he's looking forward to this week's screenings, calling them a "homecoming."
"I fell in love with Cleveland; I really did," he said "I spent enough time there to really connect to the city and feel its vulnerability and also feel its life."
As Chrostowski says in the film, "In every ounce of everybody, there is a little bit of hope, a little bit of belief. And if somehow you can feed that, nothing is impossible."
"Knife Skills" will show at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 4, at Chagrin Falls Township Hall and 8 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 5, at Chagrin Cinemas B. Tickets are available. (A 7:15 p.m. screening Wednesday at Chagrin Valley Little Theatre is sold out.) It's produced, directed and filmed by Lennon, and edited and co-produced by Nick August-Perna. Some of the restaurant workers will attend along with Chrostowski and Lennon. The Chagrin Documentary Film Festival runs Wednesday-Sunday, Oct. 4-8.

Fellowship that funded HWNI Director Ehud Isacoff as a new faculty member receives $20 million matching gift
By Natalie TerranovaOctober 30, 2018August 10th, 2020No Comments
In 1995, Ehud Isacoff was in the first cohort of Hellman Fellows, established by the late F. Warren and Patricia (Chris) Hellman to support early-career faculty at UC Berkeley. Since that time, Hellman Fellowships have been awarded to 384 young faculty members from multiple disciplines. Isacoff went on to have a distinguished research career, and is now the Director of the Helen Wills Neuroscience Institute and the Berkeley Brain Initiative.
UC Berkeley has now received a record $20 million matching gift from the Hellman Fellows Fund to create The Society of Hellman Fellows, which will double the number of faculty that can be supported each year. The fellowship provides a critical bridge of financial support to new faculty once their start-up funds are used up, while they try to secure longer-term funding.
Read the article to learn more about this generous gift, and how Isacoff feels the Hellman Fellowship helped launch his career.

XI'AN, Jan. 9 (Xinhua) — Xi'an, capital city of northwest China's Shaanxi Province, has basically stopped the spread of COVID-19 in communities one month after the resurgence of the epidemic hit the city, thanks to stringent containment measures such as city-level lockdown and rounds of mass nucleic acid testing.
As notable progress has been made to control the epidemic, Xi'an will gradually lift closed-off management based on the judgment and research conducted by national and provincial experts.
The virus spread in communities had been basically cut off, Xu Mingfei, vice mayor of Xi'an, told a press conference on Jan. 5. Xu said that all the new cases found over the previous rounds of nucleic acid testing were among the people who were quarantined at designated places (centralized quarantine) or at home.
Daily cases in Xi'an with a population of 13 million began to drop since the start of this year and slipped to two-digit numbers quickly, with 30 new cases, all in centralized quarantine, reported on Saturday.
The city, a popular tourist destination known for the Terracotta Warriors, registered 1,989 locally transmitted confirmed cases as of Saturday since Dec. 9, 2021.
The viral genome sequencing of the new cases has identified them as strains of the highly contagious Delta variant, which are highly homologous with imported cases from an inbound flight on Dec. 4, 2021, according to the provincial center for disease control and prevention.
STRICT CONTAINMENT MEASURES
Many positive patients didn't show obvious symptoms in the initial stage, and they tended to ignore their physical condition, which led to community transmission and clustered cases, local officials have said.
The number of confirmed cases in Xi'an rose by more than 150 per day for a week in late December, and the virus has spread to other cities and provinces.
To curb the spread of the virus, the city has launched several rounds of mass nucleic acid testing, with thousands of sample collecting venues set up.

Mass nucleic acid testing can help health authorities identify the infected cases and put them under quarantine early. Meanwhile, it is conducive to adopting precise control measures and relieving public stress, said Li Qun, director of the health emergency center of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention.
As the trajectories of the positive cases in Xi'an were complex and involved a wider area, and some could not be traced to known sources, the megacity imposed closed-off management for communities and villages since Dec. 23 last year.
"The strict containment measures introduced are based on the epidemic situation to prevent transmission within the city and spreading elsewhere," said Lei Zhenglong, a member of the Xi'an taskforce team sent by the State Council for epidemic control.
JOINT EFFORTS AGAINST EPIDEMIC
During a recent tour to Shaanxi Province for investigation and research on prevention and control of the epidemic, Vice Premier Sun Chunlan said that Xi'an saw a sharp decline in daily-reported new COVID-19 cases and had basically blocked the spread of COVID-19 in communities. However, Sun warned that the epidemic containment is still at a crucial stage, and urged efforts to prevent the rebound of the epidemic.
As of 6 p.m. Jan. 6, the city arranged 431 venues for centralized quarantines, putting 45,760 people under quarantine.
"The quarantined personnel have overcome the inconvenience to themselves and their families for the safety of all. They are also heroes," said vice mayor Xu.
Ma Hui, one of the residents in isolation, recorded his life in a quarantined site in short videos. "Despite some inconvenience at the beginning, the room is warm, and we receive necessities and even snacks," said Ma, 40, in a video.
Community workers and volunteers have devoted themselves to sending free groceries to residents in lockdown. People can also place orders online, and items will be distributed and delivered to each household by community staff and volunteers.

The city government has taken measures to help people under closed-off management overcome inconvenience brought about by containment measures.
For example, responding to people's difficulty in accessing medical services, the city government has dispatched buses to shuttle those who need emergency treatment at hospitals to prevent the risk of cross-infection, said vice mayor Xu.
In Yanta District, the worst-hit district, several officials, including the Party chief of the Yanta District, have been removed from posts due to dereliction of duty.
As notable progress has been made to control the epidemic, Xi'an will gradually lift closed-off management based on the judgment and research conducted by national and provincial experts, Lyu Yongpeng, deputy director of the city's health commission, said on Saturday.
As of Saturday, a total of 262 patients had been discharged from hospitals after recovery.

Graded Auditory Warnings During In-Vehicle Use: Using Sound to Guide Drivers Without Additional Noise
Fagerlönn, Johan and Lindberg, Stefan and Sirkka, Anna (2012) Graded Auditory Warnings During In-Vehicle Use: Using Sound to Guide Drivers Without Additional Noise. In: 4th International Conference on Automotive User Interfaces and Interactive Vehicular Applications, Portsmouth, NH, USA.
Auditory signals have proven useful to guide and inform drivers in dangerous situations. Sounds can become annoying, however, thereby negatively affecting consumer acceptance of an interface or system. Auditory warnings are typically salient sounds such as sudden beeps or repetitive tones. But adding sound to the environment is not necessarily the only way to aurally alert people to a change in the environment. The present study explored the usefulness of three alternative strategies to notify drivers in early stages of a threatening situation using sound: 1. panning the radio sound from the driver's position (equal sound level in both ears) to one side; 2. reducing the sound level of the radio; and 3. a mild auditory warning signal (i.e., an added sound). The participants responded to the early warnings in a simple reaction task while performing a simulated driving task. After each condition, the drivers completed a questionnaire concerning their opinions of the early warnings. Interestingly, the results show that manipulating the sound of the radio can be a useful way to notify drivers. Panning the sound of the radio may be especially effective and tolerable. Potential benefits and issues with the investigated warning strategies are discussed.

Though it's unclear who made the final call, a Cassie representative has confirmed their break up to the blog, revealing that "they are indeed no longer together and haven't been for months".
Cassie and Diddy have split after 11 years together. They reportedly spent time together in Miami last month and attended Drake's show at Staples Center in Los Angeles on Friday (Oct. 12).
A source shared, "the decision was amicable and they remain friends".
One theory is that Diddy rumoured is dating model Jocelyn Chew, while others were concerned about whether Cassie "secured the bag". "The key to maintaining any relationship, be it a romantic relationship or a friendship, is honesty and communication".
After a six-year relationship, the music industry power couple ended their relationship, which came as a shock to unsuspecting fans.

Cheap European city breaks – the alternatives to the popular weekend holiday destinations
By opting for Bordeaux instead of Paris or Izmir instead of Istanbul, tourists not only save a fortune on hotels, food and drink, they also escape the crowds
Caroline McGuire
NOW that the summer is over, many Brits start to look at romantic, fun-filled or festive city breaks as a short holiday option during the winter months.
But instead of looking at the classic destinations like Rome and Paris, why not pick the lesser-known options this year.

By opting for Bordeaux instead of Paris or Izmir instead of Istanbul, tourists not only save a fortune on hotels, flights, food and drink, but they also escape the crowds.
Myvouchercodes.co.uk has come up with some alternative break destinations, based on the price of accommodation, the percentage of restaurants classed as "cheap eats," the price of a pint and the cost of a taxi.
Swap Paris for Bordeaux
Instead of Paris try Bordeaux, with its large number of wineries and a reputation for great foodCredit: Getty - Contributor
Paris is a bucket list destination, but with that comes the price tag and the crowds, so instead try Bordeaux, with its large number of wineries and a reputation for great food.
The price of a pint is £5.22 compared to £5.84, but more importantly, you'll get to do a load of wine tasting and touring of local vineyards.
Rooms can be found for as little as £62 for two nights in November - book here.
Swap Istanbul for Izmir
Try heading to the country's third largest city - Izmir, which is home to some of the largest collection of Roman ruins outside of Pompeii
Turkey has been having a resurgence among Brits this year, and Istanbul is no exception.
Its beautiful basilicas, palaces and mosques means it attracts tourists from all over the world, but there are plenty of other city destinations with culture and history by the bucket-load.
Try heading to the country's third largest city - Izmir, which is home to some of the largest collection of Roman ruins outside of Pompeii.
Afterwards, take a tour of the local vineyards and olive groves, then relax with a pint of beer - which costs £1.27 compared to £2.49 on average in Istanbul.
Swap Barcelona for Girona

Barcelona may have the Sagrada Familia and Gaudi's Garden, but the TV series Game Of Thrones was filmed in Girona's Jewish Quarter and city cathedral.
Also, Barcelona's disgruntled locals have been protesting against mass tourism in the last couple of years.
Swap Amsterdam for Groningen
Instead of Amsterdam, head to Groningen - a city with 201,000 inhabitants that was founded around 950ADCredit: Getty - Contributor
Amsterdam's maze of canals, world-class museums and infamous coffee shops make it one of Europe's most popular city break destinations - and the prices reflect that, as do the crowds.
Instead, head to Groningen - a city with 201,000 inhabitants that was founded around 950AD.
Wander the streets or take a boat ride along the canals to take in some of the classic Dutch architecture.
Swap Rome for Florence
Tourists will be spoilt for choice in Florence as to what to see over the course of a weekendCredit: Getty - Contributor
Rome has culture, history and great food - but so does Florence.
Tourists will be spoilt for choice as to what to see over the course of a weekend, from the Florence Cathedral and the Uffizi Gallery - home to Botticelli's "The Birth of Venus" and da Vinci's "Annunciation" - to the Palazzo Vecchio.
If nothing else, the price of a pint of beer is £3.60 compared to £4.24.
Swap London for Manchester
Manchester has arguably the best music scene in the UKCredit: Getty - Contributor
London might be the capital, but Manchester has arguably the best music scene in the UK and some of the best football clubs in the world.
You also get far more for your money - 35 per cent of food outlets are classed as cheap eats, compared to 27 per cent in London.
Booze is cheaper too, with the price of a pint coming in at £3.15 compared to £4.

The quantity of landfill has become a major environmental issue in recent years. Even when computer equipment reaches an end-of-life state, many of the components can be re-used or recycled. In addition, re-using the waste metal to produce new goods requires less energy than production from scratch.
Our aim is to re-furbish / re-market equipment wherever possible and then to reclaim a high percentage of the waste materials in the cases where this is not viable.

Q: How can I iterate through JSON arrays and show data in a table in React Here's my App.js file:
     import React, { Component } from 'react';
     import SongData from './songData';

     export default class App extends Component {

     render() {

      return(

        {JSON.stringify(SongData)}

      )
     }
   }

SongData is a variable that's defined in and exported from another file called songData:
   [{
    "active": 1,
    "createdAt": "2016-11-02T18:08:26.103Z",
    "difficulty": "Medium"
},
{
    "active": 0,
    "createdAt": "2013-10-02T18:08:26.103Z",
    "difficulty": "Difficult"
},
{
    "active": 1,
    "createdAt": "2015-12-02T18:08:26.103Z",
    "difficulty": "Easy"
}
]

What I want to do is in my App.js file iterate through all the JSON arrays and print out the active, createdAt, and difficulty of each song in a table.
I unsuccessfully tried a for loop and map, but niether worked. Any ideas?

A: I think something like this should work:
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import SongData from './songData';

export default class App extends Component {

  songItems = () => {
    return SongData.map(s => {
      return
{s.active}

    })
  }

  render() {

   return(

     {this.songItems()}

   )
  }
}

I'm making a method that's returning an array of List components, and then calling that method in the App's render method.
