If someone questioned our sanity right now, I wouldn't blame them. About a month ago, Jan and I began a serious home-improvement project. Fed up with carpet and linoleum that didn't stand up to our frequent entertaining and furniture re-arranging, we opted for one of the most durable and low maintenance flooring surfaces we could find: porcelain tile. With the goal to replace all the floors in our house with beautiful 18"x18" tiles, we began in the living room/hallway/dining room, since all the other rooms in the house branched from that central axis.
Gung-ho to complete the project ourselves, we delved right in, and since Jan had installed tile before and I'd installed laminate flooring, we had great confidence in our ability to get it done quickly and efficiently.
The tiling was a lot more work than we'd anticipated, and a month into the project, it still feels like we've only just begun. We started with enthusiasm, but after working at our jobs all day, it was difficult to get motivated to come home only to do some seriously strenuous physical labor. In addition, as I'm sure many can relate, working harmoniously on a DIY project with your significant other is one of the biggest challenges a person can undertake. While well-meaning friends shared statistics in jest about DIY projects being a contributing factor in many a divorce, I started to wonder if there was more merit to the numbers than I'd previously thought.
Choices, choices, choices. Tile, or relax? Spend the evenings and weekends happy and peaceful, or engaged in a heated debate over the "levelness" of one particular tile? The project didn't always win out.
With guests expected to help eat the corned beef, I knew we couldn't welcome them into a halfway-tiled space they had to tiptoe over. The corned beef would make us finish, whether we wanted to or not.
Corned beef and cabbage used to be one of those things I liked to have once a year, and once a year only. You wouldn't catch me thinking, hmm, I'm craving corned beef and cabbage for dinner (like Jan does). But it might be one of those dishes that grow on you. I'm starting to think I could have it about twice a year and be OK.
Good thing too, since Jan was so excited to celebrate, he decided to do a test run of the corned beef and cabbage. Besides, it was a welcome break from tiling, and with our approaching deadline, we were actually making good progress. We opened up one of the packages and after trimming off as much fat as we could, cooked according to the package directions using the included spice packet. The general rule is to cook for one hour per pound, adding the cabbage and potatoes in the last half hour of cooking.
To wash it all down, we made Black and Tans, using Guinness Draught and Harp Lager. To prepare, we filled the glasses about 1/2 of the way with the light colored beer (Harp Lager), then poured the dark beer (Guinness Draught) over an upside-down spoon to fill the remainder of the glass without splashing and mixing the two layers.
We sat together in the hallway (dining table moved there in order to tile the floor of the dining room), eating our corned beef, sipping the beer, and admiring our newly laid tile.
"It looks so good, I think it was worth it," Jan said. I gave him a sideways glance. "Worth the amount of work, and worth almost getting divorced," he said with a smile.
I had to agree with him. It did look great. In retrospect, it wasn't that bad. Apparently we agreed on more things than we thought, including that the corned beef and cabbage was delicious.
While we might have only completed a fraction of our big project, and probably won't lay another tile for another six months, we've got everything we need: a completed dining room, a completed living room, and 31 pounds of corned beef.
Now that looks absolutely amazing! You've inspired this Irish chick to hit the stores collecting corned beef of her very own!
Sounds good 🙂 hope it turns out delicious!
the ceramic floors will be worth it when you're finished… we've dropped so many things on our kitchen tile, and there isn't a scratch (let alone a crack) to show for it. The down-side is that a dropped wine glass will shatter entirely and send shards of glass shooting across the floor, every time.
have fun..congrats on being fp'ed!
Your home must be so popular for St Patrick's day. The photographs look tempting. Now, I am looking forward to a similar meal (doubt it) today at a New York City restaurant.
Thanks, the tiling is a lot of work, but worth it in the end. It may take a while to get started, but you'll feel such a sense of pride knowing you did it yourself. Good luck with the project!
It annoys Irish people so much to hear it call Patty's Day!!
That sounds really good. Thank you for sharing!
Corned beef and cabbage, with a Black & Tan on the side. An excellent reward for a hard day's work! Congrats!
I am planning on cooking 12 or more pounds of corned beef myself, on Saturday. Still not sure how I am going to manage such a big batch in my small kitchen, but I am looking forward to the guests, and sharing a pint or two o' Guinness! Slainte!
I think we'll probably have all the burners going on our stove, and a couple outside to manage all those pots of corned beef. It's amazing how it looks like so much food, but it always gets eaten up so quickly. Good luck preparing your feast on Saturday as well!
Deadlines always motivate you to finish things. Hope you have a great St. Patty's Day party.
It is St Patricks day or Paddys day. Irish people don't like it being called St pattys day. The only time we like pattys is when they are in a hamburger.
Food brings people together. You can tell so much about a culture by their food.
That does sound pretty nice and delicious.
Laying tile is hard and a long process… I wish you luck there.
Nice post, excellent attitude at the end.
Looks delicious, I just couldn't cook it myself! I've tried to make homemade stuff at home and it always seems to turn out pretty bad. I don't think I've had corned beef before, though I am part Irish, I haven't had much of the food.
I'm sure you could do it! Everything gets boiled together in one big pot, and when you buy corned beef around this time of year, it usually comes with all the spices you need included in a packet with the meat. Besides, if you're drinking beer while you cook, it's guaranteed to taste good by the time it's done!
Love corn beef and cabbage.
But I want to see the floor!!!!
We tile too. It's a pain! But always worth it in the end. The scary part is the machine we rent to cut tile. That thing can take an eye out,an arm off or worse. Hate that thing.
Haha, tiling and the tools needed to do it can definitely be dangerous. As far as a picture of the floor, everything's still drying so we haven't moved anything back into the rooms yet, but soon!
Now that's a meal of champions! Fabulous!
Now that's a long project. Let's hope we're not still tiling in 5 years, yikes!
Thanks for the comment, and for letting me know about the use of "St. Patrick's Day" verses any abbreviated version — I learn something new every day!
This recipe looks great! Good luck!
I can't wait for my corned beef tomorrow!
What? No pictures of the floor?? Dang.
I gotta go and buy the ingredients,,,i want to try one so yummy yet simple and easy.
Love the blog. I've seen the floor, it looks terrific… and I've tried the corned beef and cabbage, and yes, it's tasty.

Wearing a green shirt tomorrow!
Beer is the drink not to be reckoned with.
Well, Bravo on the housekeeping, but maximum respect on the "Black N Tans", Corned beef,cabbage(sauerkraut is what I use) and lovely red potatoes!! The only thing you are missing is described in MY St. Patty's Day post: Jameson's! Kudos on being Luckily-charmed enough to get freshly pressed!
Congratz on being on Freshly Pressed! The recipe looks scrumptious. Good luck on that!
You can't beat good floors!
I've never had corned beef and cabbage.
Corned Beef, potatoes and cabbage! Just love it! Growing up my father was a meat buyer for a local supermarket here in So Cal and would always bring home corned beef and cabbage. We never missed a St Patrick's Day!
Good stuff! Now you have me doing two things: craving corned beef , and NOT craving laying tile !!
That was quite witty how you base your blog around meals when of course there are so many little events that transpire at this time. I enjoyed reading!
Mmmmmm. I have the corned beef,green cabbage and red potatoes ready to go. No Guinness. Killian's Irish Red.
OMG that looks delicious. I actually had someone tell me, an Irish lad, that corned beef sucked last night. They have no idea.
All of the food looks DELICIOUS!!

Q: How can I define different files or packages inside the Go playground? How can I define different files or packages inside the Go playground?
Specially for checking it can be handy to define a package inside the playground. But to manage this I need to define different files. How can I manage this?

A: The playground supports now different files. To define a file you need to write:
-- path/to/file.go --
package myPackage

// ...
-- foo/foo.go --
/*
Package foo defines Bar() for showing how
multiple files can be used inside the playground
*/
package foo

import "fmt"

func Bar() {
    fmt.Println("The Go playground now has support for multiple files!")
}

To call your package you need to import that package. Therefore you need to define a Go module inside a separate go.mod file.
-- go.mod --
module play.ground

Now you can import your package you defined inside the playground:
package main

import "play.ground/foo"

func main() {
    foo.Bar()
}

Putting everything together: https://play.golang.org/p/KLZR7NlVZNX

Q: REQUEST_URI exact match modsecurity I need deny a portion of an url with modsecurity , example:
index.php?page_num=users
I have implemented this rule:
SecRule REQUEST_URI "/index\.php\?page_num=users" "id:10000100,phase:1,t:lowercase,deny,msg:'UsersDeny'"

It works for the URI "index.php?page_num=users" , but it also deny any characters after the users string, example:
index.php?page_num=userssadasd

How can i deny the exact URI " *index.php?page_num=users " ?

A: Without explicit operator the engine uses the @rx. There are two possible ways to solve this problem:

*

*use the anchored pattern for regex, eg REQUEST_URI "^/index\.php\?page_num=users$"

*use the @streq operator: REQUEST_URI "@streq /index.php?page_num=users"

"Science and Engineering in the Islamic Heritage", a Symposium organised by Al-Furqān Islamic Heritage Foundation – Centre for the Study of Islamic Manuscripts, in co-operation with the Foundation for Science, Technology and Civilisation (UK), on Saturday 18th March 2017, in London.
The Centre for the Study of Islamic Manuscripts at Al-Furqān Islamic Heritage Foundation, in co-operation with Foundation for Science, Technology and Civilisation (UK), organised a Symposium titled "Science and Engineering in the Islamic Heritage", on Saturday, 18th March 2017, at Al-Furqān's headquarters in London.
The Symposium shed light on some of the contributions of Muslim scholars in different scientific fields, with a special focus on astronomy, mathematics, physics, optics, engineering, and scientific instruments, highlighting the major legacy and texts left by some of the pioneering scholars in this field. Furthermore, the Symposium explored ways of how to bring such contributions into the public domain to enhance inter-cultural respect.
The symposium was structured in 5 sessions with a total of 14 speakers. It was attended by more than 50 scholars and academics, specialised in scientific fields of study and the Islamic Heritage. Each session was followed by an open discussion on the topic and relevant questions by the participants.
Mr Sharaf Yamani, member of the Board of Directors at Al-Furqān welcoming the attendees of the Symposium
The Symposium started with the welcoming words by Mr Sharaf Yamani, member of the Board of Directors at Al-Furqān, who highlighted the work of the Foundation in studying the Islamic written heritage in general, as well as its work and efforts in the fields of applied sciences and engineering in the Islamic Heritage; highlighting the fact that Al-Furqān looks at this heritage as being a shared human heritage.
The first session, titled "Introduction on the Historiography of Science", was chaired by Mr Peter Fell.
The first speaker was Prof. Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu, Turkish academic, diplomat, and member of the Board of Directors at Al-Furqān. He is also editor and co-author of the 18 volumes "History of Ottoman Scientific Literature." His lecture was titled "An Overview of Ottoman Scientific Literature". Prof. Ihsanoglu introduced the importance of the 18 volumes of "History of Ottoman Scientific Literature" that were prepared and published in the last three decades, which reveal enormous amount of information about scientific activities in the six centuries of the Ottoman era. In his lecture, Prof. Ihsanoglu presented the statistical findings of surveying 4897 authors, 4681 works and a large number of manuscripts. The information gathered was presented analytically in tables. The lecture highlighted the different aspects of authorship in various scientific disciplines (astronomy, mathematics, geography, medicine, etc.) and the interaction between scholars from different parts of the Ottoman Empire within its European, Anatolian and Arabic provinces. The paper also shed light on the first contacts with modern science emerging in the West Europe.
Prof. Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu's lecture was titled "An Overview of Ottoman Scientific Literature"
Prof. William R. Shea's lecture was titled "Enlarging our Historiography"
The second speaker was Prof. William R. Shea, Professor of History and Philosophy of Science at McGill University in Montreal. His paper was titled, "Enlarging our Historiography". Prof. Shea highlighted the importance of studying history through a world history approach. In particular, he pointed out that, if we fail to understand the Islamic heritage, we will fail to understand Europe and the rest of the world. In fact, the most vigorous scientific activity of the early Middle Ages lay in the lands of the Prophet, whether in medicine, mathematics or astronomy. The Arab contribution to mechanics and engineering is of towering importance, and the historiography of science has now been greatly enhanced by the critical edition and English translation of the corpus of Al-Isfizārī. Prof. Shea concluded his speech by mentioning the decline of history as a subject and the need to move towards exhibitions and display of artefacts for engaging the public in the intercultural exchange of knowledge.
Prof. Charles Burnett's lecture was titled "Truth" in Islamic Culture in the Middle Ages"
The third speaker of the first session was Prof. Charles Burnett, Professor of the History of Arabic/Islamic Influences in Europe at the Warburg Institute, University of London. His lecture was titled, "Arabica Veritas: Europeans' Search for "Truth" in Islamic Culture in the Middle Ages". In this contribution, Prof. Burnett explained the meaning of the concept of "Arabic truth" among Medieval Western Europeans, and explored the apparent contradiction between Christians' outright condemnation of Islam and their wholesale embracing of the products of Islamic culture. In fact, Arabic scholars, in particular of scientific texts, were seen not only as truthful to the text they were copying from the Greeks or other sources, but also as promoters of reasoning and rational thinking in analysing and answering those issues that the Greeks could not answer before, thus being seen by the European scholars as valuable and reliable sources.
The second session titled, "Astronomy and Mathematics in the Islamic Heritage" was chaired by Prof. Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu.
The first speaker of this session was Prof. George Saliba, Professor of Arabic and Islamic Science at Columbia University. His lecture was titled "The Pervasive Use of Arabic/Islamic Sources in Renaissance Europe and Thereafter" and focused on the works of European scientists who used Islamic/Arabic scientific sources to support and expand their own science. The lecture explored the works of European scientists from the Renaissance up to the seventeenth-century and beyond who used Arabic scientific sources in a variety of fields and annotated them with their own hands, all in the process of producing their own European pre-modern science, including Andreas Vesalius, Lazarus Hebraeus de Frigeis, Giambattista della Porta, John Greaves, in addition to several Dutch globe makers and other technicians, mostly interested in the practical scientific tools developed in the Islamic world.
Prof. George Saliba's lecture was titled: "The Pervasive Use of Arabic/Islamic Sources in Renaissance Europe and Thereafter"
The second speaker of this session was Prof. David King, Professor of the History of Science at the J. W. Goethe University in Frankfurt. His lecture was titled, "Science in the Service of Islam". Prof. King explained how the applications of science in the service of Islam had no parallel in the history of world civilisation, and they gave rise to many new inventions. In the mathematical tradition, for example, the regulation of the prayer-times took place within the broader context of astronomical timekeeping by the sun and stars, using extensive astronomical tables and complicated instruments, and the determination of the Qibla within the framework of mathematical geography, longitudes and latitudes, and applied mathematics. Prof. King also addressed the most recent misinterpretations (by Gibson, Meus and Holland) about early Muslim practices, and urged that the best means to confront them was to be informed about what the Muslims actually did do, through the study of written sources and artefacts that survived, from the Islamic world and beyond.
Prof. David King's lecture was titled: "Science in the Service of Islam"
The third session titled, "Optics and Vision in Islamic Heritage" was chaired by Dr Anne-Maria Brennan.
The first lecture of this session, titled "From Ibn al-Haytham to Ahmed Zewail: A Millennium of Contributions to Imaging Devices" was delivered by Prof. Mohamed El-Gomati, Professor of Electronics at the University of York, UK. In this lecture, Prof. El-Gomati focused on the development of optical imaging devices up to the present day. The chronology of developments as well as the key figures behind such inventions clearly shows how interdependent advancements in science and technology are, as well as to highlight the continued use of some old inventions in many of the advancements being made in today's world, in particular from the Islamic heritage (with focus on the works by Ibn al-Haytham).
Professor Mohammed El-Gomati
The second lecture of this session was delivered by Prof. Siegfried Zielinski, Professor of Media Theory at the University of Arts (UdK) Berlin. The lecture was titled "Ibn al-Haytham's Concept of Vision - A Media Archaeological Approach". Prof. Zielinski pointed out how Islamic scholars provided a "post-modern" approach to the sciences ante litteram, in contrast to major European philosophers of the time (such as Hegel or Kant). In particular, he brought as an example Ibn al-Haytham's Book of Optics, one of the most important contributions for the history of visual perception and the construction of images interpretation. This work, for Prof. Zielinski, is also an important contribution from a media archaeological point of view, because of Ibn al-Haytham's understating of "inter-objectivity": an object that reflects light is not passive, it becomes a potentiality. This concept is very much representative of contemporary technic media theories, which analyse the dialogues and interconnections between objects. Prof. Zielinski focused in particular on three aspects of Ibn al-Haytham's work that make him a modern scholar: the highly experimental/empirical approach of Ibn al-Haytham's concept of vision; its neurological implications; its modernity as a concept of generating and reflecting images.
The third contribution to this session was the lecture titled, "Ibn al-Haytham and His Influence on Post-Medieval Western Culture", delivered by Prof. Charles M. Falco, who has joint appointments in Optical Sciences and Physics at the University of Arizona, where he holds the UA Chair of Condensed Matter Physics. Prof. Falco presented a research project done in collaboration with David Graves and David Hockney. He focused on Kitāb al-Manāẓir (Book of Optics) by Ibn al-Haytham and its intellectual contributions that subsequently were incorporated throughout the core of post-Medieval Western culture. Prof. Falco explained how Ibn al-Haytham's seminal work on the human vision system initiated what remains an unbroken chain of development that connects 21st century optical scientists with the 11th century Ibn al-Haytham. However, the impact that Ibn al-Haytham had on areas as wide-ranging as the theology, literature, art and science of Europe is still significantly understated.
Dr Saira Malik
The last speaker of the third session was Dr Saira Malik, lecturer of Religious Studies at Cardiff University (UK), with a lecture titled "Kamāl al-Dīn al-Fārisī on (the) Optics: In the Footsteps of al-Ḥasan Ibn al-Haytham?". In her lecture, Dr Malik explained how, although Kamāl al-Dīn's work uses Ibn al-Haytham's writings in the 'Optics' as a starting point, Kamāl al-Dīn departs significantly from Ibn al-Haytham's composition – in terms of structure, content and concept. Kamāl al-Dīn al-Fārisī (d. ~1320CE, Tabriz) is the only known commentator in Arabic of Ibn al-Haytham's principal work, 'Optics' – an important work in the history of science – particularly in the history of the physical sciences.
The fourth session titled, "Engineering and Instruments in Islamic Heritage" was chaired by Mr Sharaf Yamani.
The first speaker was Prof. Salim Al-Hassani, Emeritus Professor at the University of Manchester, and President of FSTC, with a lecture titled "An Introduction on Automatic Machines in Muslim Civilisation". This contribution reviewed the rise and development of automatic machines within Muslim civilisation. It looked at how inventors from the Muslim civilisation progressively transformed achievements of previous cultures (e.g. ancient Mesopotamia, Egypt, Greece, Persia, China and India), and how they developed new sophisticated time measuring devices, irrigation machines and entertainment devices. Prof. Al-Hassani showed some examples of automatic machines, using 3D animations created from descriptions in primary sources, using modern engineering graphics. These included: CaliphḤarūn al-Rashīd's clock that he gifted to Charlemagne, Ibn al-Haytham's novel water clock, and some machines of Al-Murādī in Al-Andalus, Al-Jazārī and Taqī al-Dīn in Turkey, and the clocks of Riḍwān al-Sāʿātī in Damascus, BūʿInāniya and Al-Qarawiyyin clocks in Fez. Prof. Al-Hassani concluded by stating that unfortunately, there is a gap in the educational curricula of about 1000 years, overlooking the contributions of non-European cultures such as Chinese, Indian, Persian and Muslim.
Prof. Andrea Bernardoni's lecture was titled "Traces and Connection with Muslim Scientific Heritage in Leonardo Da Vinci Manuscripts"
The second speaker was Prof. Andrea Bernardoni researcher and curator at the Institute of the History of Science in Florence (Italy). His lecture was titled, "Traces and Connection with Muslim Scientific Heritage in Leonardo Da Vinci Manuscripts". Prof. Bernardoni discussed direct and indirect examples of influence of Arabic and Islamic scientific contributions to the work of Leonardo da Vinci in the fields of engineering, arts and sciences. In the case of engineering machines, the influences from the Islamic context came mostly through the commercial routes and the travellers between the Middle East and Europe. At the beginning of the 16th century, Leonardo even considered the possibility of moving to the court of Sultan Bāyezīd II, with the project to build a bridge over the Bosphorus. As for scientific knowledge and the arts, manuscripts and translations of Arabic sources were the main influence in Da Vinci's work, such as Al-Kindī and Ibn al-Haytham for optics and meteorology, and Avicenna (Ibn Sīnā) for anatomy and medicine.
Prof. Julio Samso's lecture was titled "Dūnash ibn Tamīm and the Armillary Sphere"
The third speaker of this session was Prof. Julio Samso, Emeritus Professor of Arabic and Islamic Studies of the University of Barcelona, who delivered a lecture titled "Dūnash ibn Tamīm and the Armillary Sphere". In his lecture, Prof. Samso analysed the contents of the treatise and showed that Dūnash's knowledge of spherical astronomy was rather limited. Abū Sahl Dūnash was a Tunisian scholar, born in Qayrawan, and was a disciple of the well-known physician and philosopher Isḥāq ibn Sulaymān al-Isrāʾīlī (4th/10th century), who worked as a physician of the Fatimid caliphs. The treatise on the armillary sphere was written to accompany a real instrument built for Muḥammad b. al-Ḥusayn. It has been preserved in only one manuscript (Istanbul, Ayasofya 4861), copied in 613/1217. It describes an analogical computer, like the astrolabe, not an observational instrument. The treatise is divided into two parts: 1) Introduction and 2) a collection of 43 applications of the armillary instrument. He adds to this list lengthy digressions concerning topics which are not related to the use of the armillary sphere, or in which the use of the instrument is only a visual help, to understand the theory involved. In some cases, these digressions are cosmological.
Prof. Glen Cooper
The last speaker of the fourth session was Prof. Glen Cooper, visiting assistant professor in the History Department at Claremont McKenna College. His lecture was titled "Astrolabes and Zijes as Tools of Education and the Transmission of Scientific Knowledge from Islamic Civilisation". Prof. Cooper provided an introduction to Islamic astrolabes and astronomical tables (zijes), explaining that they were improvements on Greek antecedents, and were employed both to educate non-specialists about basic astronomical concepts, and to enable faster calculations of planetary positions and other astrological parameters. Both astrolabes and tables encode a complex trigonometry, so the user needs merely to turn a dial, aligning certain marks and reading off the result from the astrolabe, or simply to perform basic arithmetic on the tables to derive planetary positions. In addition, the astrolabe was an important vehicle for the transmission of mathematics and astronomy to Europe. In conclusion, Prof. Cooper explained how astrolabes and zijes are useful in modern history of science courses, to help students grasp the technical sophistication of Muslim civilisation. He discussed three example assignments and workshops 1) Students use tables to calculate selected features of their birth charts (positions of Sun, Mars and Ascendant). 2) Students construct an astrolabe from scratch, using compass, pencil, card stock paper, and an acetate sheet. And 3) Students learn how to use the astrolabe for time-keeping and selected astrological calculations.
Session V
The last session was titled, "Science Heritage in Action" and was chaired by Prof. William Shea.
The main speaker was Prof. Karen Pinto, who has worked extensively with medieval Islamic maps in manuscript libraries around the world. Her speech was titled, "Teaching Islamic Technology to American Undergraduates: The Importance of 1001 Inventions as a Means to Dispel Islamophobia". In her lecture, Prof. Pinto explained how in a time of great stress between the Western and Muslim worlds, it is important to provide students with an understanding of global culture and the contributions that the Muslims make to it. Classes on Islamic Civilisation and Technology enable us to break down negative western monolithic impressions of Islam and Islamic history, by familiarising students with the richness and diversity of Islamic history and culture, and the advances of science and technology in the medieval period.
Prof. Karen Pinto
Closing Session
Discussion and Recommendations
During the closing session, the speakers and the audience engaged in an open discussion that ended with the recommendations and final words by the Managing Director of Al-Furqān, Mr Sali Shahsivari, who reminded the audience of the work of the Foundation in unearthing the hidden treasures of Islamic written heritage by surveying, cataloguing and editing manuscripts, and in promoting research and study in different fields of this heritage, with a special focus on the field of science and technology. Also, he made a call for projects on critical edition of scientific texts. He also highlighted Al-Furqān's work in building an online database, as a gateway to the Islamic written heritage, which is an open access for all. Furthermore, he pointed out that this event aimed to discuss ways of bringing this heritage closer to the public domain, through different ways and initiatives, as well as through co-operation with other organisations in the same field (such as FSTC and its 1001 Inventions initiative) in order to raise awareness on the richness of Islamic heritage, its role and importance, and in addition to enhance inter-cultural appreciation and respect.
The Opening Dinner
The Symposium was opened on Friday, 17th March, with a reception and dinner held at the Cholmondeley Room & Terrace at the House of Lords in London, hosted by the Rt. Hon. the Lord Knight of Weymouth, and the Rt. Hon. Baroness Hooper.
During this event, organised jointly by Al-Furqān Islamic Heritage Foundation and the Foundation for Science, Technology, and Civilization, the book on 'The Corpus of al-Isfīzārī in the Sciences of Weights and Mechanical Devices' (both Arabic and English versions) was inaugurated.
Dr Bettany Hughes, a renowned Historian, author, and TV presenter was the Master of Ceremonies, and she presented the endeavours of both organisations in the field of Islamic Heritage.
Prof. Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu, member of the Board of Directors at Al-Furqan, and Prof. Salim Al-Hassani, President of FSTC, also welcomed the guests, gave a brief account of the inception of the mutual co-operation as well as the synergy between both organisations for all initiatives towards promoting the Islamic heritage and civilisation.
Followed by the speeches, Prof. Julio Samso, Emeritus Professor of Arabic and Islamic Studies at the University of Barcelona, and Dr Ahmed Al-Dubayan, Director of the Islamic Cultural Centre in London, introduced the English, and Arabic publication, respectively, and shared their review of the scholarly work at hand.

Justice Mohammed Idris of the Federal High Court in Lagos has denied the Federal Government powers to seize all funds owned by MTN Nigeria Communications Limited in Nigerian banks, pending when the telecommunication company pays up the N1.4 trillion fine leveled against it by the NCC over its failure to deactivate unregistered sim cards.
However in his ruling, the presiding judge, Justice denied the Federal governments application, stating that it had not provided any evidence showing that MTN was indeed moving its funds out of Nigerian banks. He said hearing on the case filed against the Federal government challenging the N1.4 trillion fine is more important and of public interest and will need to be heard soon so judgement can be delivered. He adjourned the case to January 22nd.

Merger with Karstadt Department store: Galeria Kaufhof 2600 Jobs will be lost
In the case of the ailing Department store chain Kaufhof are to be dismantled in the Wake of the merger with the rival Karstadt around 2600. The Karstadt announced in Essen. Thus, about every fifth digit is affected. Due to the high part-time ratio of the Jobs are in order of 4000 to 5000 employees threatened, reported the "Süddeutsche Zeitung".
Around a thousand full-time positions will be eliminated at the management level and in administration, additional 1600 full-time positions in the stores, the company said.
The renovation was necessary in order to reduce the costs in the case of the Galeria Kaufhof on a competitive level, says a press release from Karstadt. "In his current condition, gallery Kaufhof is survival in the long term," said the head of the joint venture, Stephan Fanderl. It's short-term investments in the three-digit million amount.
The Christmas store in 2018 to be located with a drop of almost four percent compared to the previous year significantly below expectations. Also the online business have disappointed against the market trend, with a decrease of almost one percent compared to the same period last year.
First of all, no branch closures planned

At the Cologne location, formerly the seat of the Kaufhof Headquarters, to set up a centre of competence for digitisation and E-Commerce. In addition, to be controlled from here, from the catering and food business. Renovation-related closures not to give it first.

The North Americans are involved with a 49.99 percent stake in the joint venture with Karstadt, which has around 240 stores, with sales of five billion euros and 32,000 employees. The majority shareholder is the Signa Holding of the Austrian Investor René Benko.
Karstadt in the operating business, the Say. The many years of Karstadt-Chef Fanderl leads to the new warehouse group. The group must exist in the fierce competition with many online retailers from Amazon to Zalando.

When was the last time you laughed? Like genuinely laughed? Laughed so much that you had tears of joy in your eyes? A few days back, I happened to pass by a small town, en route to one of our business locations. As my colleague and I stopped over for a hot cup of tea at one of the town's tea stalls, there was a sudden downpour. Naturally, we ran for cover, which we found under the protective shed of a nearby shop. While we were discussing the possible changes in the schedule due to bad weather, I noticed something that was usual for the streets, but seemed magical to me.
I saw a few kids dancing in the rain, having a gala time. Soon one of the kids took an old worn out tire, and the other got into it, fitting himself into its circumference. His friends then pushed him and the tire down a gentle slope. A captivating show soon transpired before us as the kid rolled down the entire slope, while his friends kept jumping with joy and laughing without a care in the world. This made me think that these kids derived joy out of such simple things in life; that it took so little to make them happy.
Contrast this to the competitive world where all of us are either running from or running towards something. It's a continuous race of acquisition of material assets or being better than the person next door. It seems like there is no end to this race, no finish to ones wants. Even happiness and relaxation is now a forced routine incorporated in one's lifestyle to "de-stress". In fact, just the other day I was walking in the park, and saw a laughter club. Have we reached a stage where all of us need to come together with the common purpose of laughing our worries and anxieties away?
The kids playing in the rain that day made me realize the importance of finding happiness in small things in life. It is only when we are faced with life altering failure, disappointment, sickness or sadness; we understand the real importance of being happy and things that make us truly happy. We realize, how the small things like being with family, being with old friends and spending time with parents do wonders to our state of mind. We only value something when we lose it, that's just a very human trait. And no matter how much we have, it will never be enough. It might then as well be better to slow things down, to take occasional pauses to appreciate the moment for what it genuinely is. The feeling of being in the moment, is truly liberating. For those kids it was the tire in the rain. For me it was that hot piping cup of tea at a roadside stall in a small town.
And so while we are all racing high and low for securing our unknown futures, let us occasionally pause and express gratitude for the life we have, for the people who are a part of it and for our journey so far. I was reading an article the other day on the regrets of some of the people on their death beds. Two confessions that stood out were, not spending enough time with the ones we love and not being grateful sooner. I feel not holding grudges and taking a moment to say thank you to the people, who make your life worthwhile, really enhances your life and in a way, sets you free. A Free person is often a happy one! We must find joy in everything we do to appreciate the smaller things.
Indeed the best words I've read so far.. and the words I believe in.. it's not just friends.. or anybody.. we should not search for a reason for being happy.. happiness if imbibed in our characters will not just make us feel each moment we spent but also infectiously make people around feel good.. we should enjoy every bit of life and be lively.. this will also boost our energy levels and efficiency… Saying thanks and sorry to people seems small .. however it actually has major impact.. it's not just the other person feeling better.. we feel good if we start acknowledging others' efforts.
The very fact that you noticed such small things, like that boy-in-the-tyre, (which normally would have gone unnoticed by most) and wrote such a thought-provoking blog is really inspiring Tapan boss.
"Even happiness and relaxation is now a forced routine incorporated in one's lifestyle to "de-stress". ….
Lovely article. We have countless blessings in life which we are able to appreciate.Being grateful for the blessings and picking up those small moments of joy is the crux of life.
Rest is all a Rat-Race.

Dole Queues and Demons: British Election Posters from the Conservative Party Archive
"Dole Queues and Demons: British Election Posters from the Conservative Party Archive", a new book written by Stuart Ball, a Reader in Modern History at the University of Leicester, was released this month. The book contains nearly 200 of the 650 election campaign posters in the vast Conservative Party Archive, which is contained in the Bodleian Library - the main research library at the University of Oxford. Many of the posters have never been shown in print.
"Dole Queues and Demons" provides a guide to the political issues and electoral strategies of the Party throughout the twentieth century, and up to the present state of affairs.
Right-hand poster from 1958, left-hand poster from 1952.
Divided into chapters based upon political periods, the book highlights the evolution in style and attitudes to advertising and the design of campaigns - as well as the political ideologies that drove the campaigns of the day. The poster above on the left, is a perfect example of the contrast between the standards of today and the campaigns of sixty years ago. "It's a housewife's budget!" probably wouldn't be thought the best slogan. "Keep things better" is also probably a little simplistic for the 21st century.
The artistic design of some of the earlier posters is quite remarkable. The poster on the right, from 1929, is typical of the style of the era. The 1929 election was an interesting one: the Conservative Party received more votes than Ramsay MacDonald's Labour Party - but Labour won 136 seats, and the Tories lost 152 seats in total - creating a hung Parliament (this scenario where the party with the most votes doesn't win the most seats was repeated in 1951 and the first 1974 election).
1929 was the first time Labour won the most seats in Parliament - clearly voters rejected the "safe choice" of incumbent Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin that the poster on the right is supposed to project. Mr Baldwin described his achievements in his election address in the Conservative manifesto:
"...as a result of our administration the Empire is more firmly united, the prestige of the country stands higher, the prosperity the welfare of our people is greater than ever before in our history."
As for ideology, the poster on the right is from the 1966 general election - in which Ted Heath lost 52 seats, and thus gave Harold Wilson the more comfortable working majority he sought (Mr Wilson had won a majority of four seats at the 1964 election). It's a pretty striking reminder of the fact the Conservative Party was, for a number of years, the pro-European party in British politics.
The 1966 manifesto is worth a read for the dramatic policy contrasts with today. Three quick quotes:
"We are determined to give Britain a respected place in the world again and lead her into the European Community. Britain must be part of a wider grouping if she is to exert her full influence in the world."
"Break the deadlock in Rhodesia by initiating talks with Mr. Smith and his colleagues for the purpose of obtaining a constitutional settlement, without any prior conditions on either side."
"Start a war on waste in Government. Establish a Cost Effectiveness Department to introduce new management techniques into all Government Departments. Use sophisticated computer techniques to study the feasibility of Government projects."
Many readers will remember the 1979 general election campaign - which produced the poster on the right. The idea poster was designed by the Saatchi & Saatchi agency - which also famously produced the "Labour's Not Working" poster that makes up the front cover of "Dole Queues and Demons".
The "Don't just hope for a better life. Vote for one." slogan was part of the first advert produced for the Party by Saatchi & Saatchi. As testament to the simple, effective message it contains, the slogan was also used by John McCain's presidential campaign in 2008.
Lord (Maurice) Saatchi provides the foreword to the book:
"Posters are to politics what poetry is to literature: the only possible words in the only possible order. They should instantly convey the core message in a memorable way. This requires a handful of words, each of which is perfectly chosen, married to an image which reinforces them. When this happens posters can be the single defining medium of a campaign."
"Dole Queues and Demons" showcases the evolution of our political campaigns, and offers a timely look at the British political tradition of the Conservative Party election poster. More details are available on the Bodleian Library website - including information on how to buy the book.

Energy Workers Program
EEOICP Bulletins
BULLETIN NO. 20-06
U.S. Department of Labor Office of Workers' Compensation Programs
Division of Energy Employees Occupational
Illness Compensation
Issue Date:  September 30, 2020
Subject:  This Bulletin extends the expiration date of Bulletin 20-03, Telemedicine for Home and Residential Health Care (HRHC) and Durable Medical Equipment (DME).
Background: In response to the COVID-19 public health emergency, a growing number of cities, states, and localities have implemented "shelter in place" and/or "stay-at-home" orders, requiring the closure of non-essential services, and limiting the movements and travel of their citizens. During this time, the Division of Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation (DEEOIC) recognizes the need to implement temporary procedures to allow for the use of telemedicine in place of face-to-face examinations for HRHC and DME evaluations, until such time pandemic restrictions are no longer necessary and are lifted.
While DEEOIC is issuing this Bulletin in response to the current public health emergency and to provide temporary procedures for staff to apply until the effects of the pandemic have lessened, DEEOIC is fully aware that some treating physicians may be constrained in their ability to practice telemedicine by the requirements of their state licensing authorities.  DEEOIC recognizes that such requirements must be observed by physicians in states where they apply. Nonetheless, DEEOIC is issuing these temporary procedures to provide physicians who have the ability to do so, with an alternative method by which they may satisfy the regulatory requirement for a face-to-face examination.  The procedures described in this Bulletin are therefore optional rather than required.
References:  Federal (EEOICPA) Procedure Manual (PM) Version 4.1, Chapter 29 – Ancillary Medical Services and Related Expenses. PM Chapter 30 – Home and Residential Health Care. 20 C.F.R. § 30.400; 20 C.F.R. § 30.403; 20 C.F.R. § 30.406; 20 C.F.R. § 30.410.
Purpose:  To provide temporary guidance to DEEOIC staff in the evaluation of evidence obtained from a physician choosing to exercise the option of conducting a "face-to-face" examination using telemedicine.
Applicability: All staff.
1. In accordance with DEEOIC policy and procedure, it is necessary currently for claimants to undergo a face-to-face examination with their physician within 60 days of the date of a Letter of Medical Necessity (LMN) supporting any request for a claimant to receive HRHC or DME. Because of new restrictions imposed to limit interpersonal contact, DEEOIC is temporarily permitting Medical Benefit Examiner (MBE) staff to accept LMNs that a physician prepares using information collected from alternative methods of patient evaluation. The exceptions from the usual face-to-face examination requirements include ongoing HRHC or DME at an existing level of care, and telemedicine options for new or increased care. Telemedicine will occur only under those circumstances where the physician has the legal or licensing authority to conduct such an examination. It will also occur only under those circumstances where the claimant's physician has chosen to undertake such an evaluation.
2. During this period of heightened concern regarding high-risk populations, the MBE is to review the circumstance of a request for continuing the HRHC/DME at the previously approved or existing level. While the MBE must obtain a well-rationalized LMN supporting a need for renewal, if a physician reports being unable to see a claimant face-to-face for medical reasons, the MBE may grant an allowance to extend the current level of HRHC/DME for a new period of authorization. In the absence of a LMN where the physician reports the inability to perform a face-to-face examination, the MBE is to obtain evidence of either a face-to-face examination, or telemedicine consistent with the guidelines for new or increased care below.
3. Upon receipt of a LMN for an initial request for HRHC/DME or increased level of HRHC, the MBE carefully reviews the LMN and any other relevant medical evidence submitted with the request. When weighing the evidence for a decision regarding authorization, the MBE may accept that a face-to-face examination occurred within 60 days of the LMN when the evidence establishes the following:
a. The LMN or other evidence submitted from the claimant's physician explains that the physician conducted a face-to-face evaluation of the claimant using remote video conference, via computer or mobile devices. The physician may use any viable software or technology to conduct the video conference, as long as the physician attests to having visually interacted with the claimant. While the physician can assess the claimant using a video connection, the MBE must obtain evidence that a Registered Nurse (RN), Advanced Practice Nurse Practitioner (APNP), or Physician Assistant (PA) was present with the claimant during the physician's video conference. The presence of the RN, APNP, or PA is necessary to ensure the physician is able to obtain physical findings or other expert medical input necessary for a comprehensive physical assessment of the claimant.
4. In the circumstance where the MBE receives a LMN or other evidence in which it is unclear whether a face-to-face evaluation occurred, either in person or through the accommodation of a video conference, the MBE is to undertake development. The MBE is to provide notice to the physician regarding the need for a face-to-face evaluation and the allowance for video conference evaluation. The MBE is to stipulate in any development regarding a face-to-face evaluation involving video conference that the physician must conduct the evaluation in compliance with his or her legal or licensing authority. Moreover, the MBE is to advise the physician that any evaluation conducted remotely must be coordinated with a RN, APNP, or PA who must be present with the claimant during the video evaluation.
5. Once the MBE receives sufficient evidence to establish that a face-to-face evaluation occurred within 60 days of the LMN, the MBE will proceed with their evaluation of the HRHC or DME request in accordance with established policies and procedures. If the MBE is unable to obtain evidence that a qualifying face-to-face evaluation occurred, the MBE may proceed with a decision to deny the claim.
6. DEEOIC will treat the cost for the evaluation of the claimant by the physician using video conference technology, as the same as if it had occurred in the physician's office. DEEOIC will reimburse time and services provided by the RN, ARNP, or PA in accordance with current home billing without any prior approval required.

Lisa Clark's story "Switch" was published in Metaphorosis on Friday, 23 March 2018.
"Switch" came to me as a spin-off of the YA SF novel I'm working on called Skin Changers. In that story, juvenile offenders enter an immersive VR program as the means through which they are rehabilitated. But what if old people – people like Claudia in "Switch," who grew up before the age of computers – could enter that type of program? What scenarios would they choose? How would it change them? Would addiction become a problem after seniors, reentering "life" again as young people in VR that is so realistic and tactile that their VR experiences become part of their memories the same way real-life recollections do? Would clients who are in pain and without hope attempt to use the program as a final solution to their desperation? So many questions could be explored. "Switch" allowed me to explore those and other ideas.
