Durable Shipments Point to Solid Q1 Equipment Spending
By Wells Fargo Securities
Apr 27 17, 14:52 GMT
Durable goods orders increased less than expected in March amid weakness in non-transportation items. Core capital goods orders posted a modest gain, while shipments point to solid rise in Q1 equipment spending.
Cooler Orders, but Recovery in Business Spending intact
Consistent with some of the softening that has begun to emerge in the survey data of the factory sector, growth in durable goods orders cooled in March. New orders rose 0.7 percent versus the market's expectation for a 1.3 percent gain. That said, the weaker-than-expected outturn for March follows an upward revision to February. Orders for February were revised up from a 1.8 percent increase to a 2.3 percent gain.
As has been the case in recent months, transportation was a key source of strength, but due to the long lead time of aircraft orders. Nondefense aircraft orders rose by $941 million (+7.0 percent), while orders for defense aircraft increased by $1.0 billion (+26.1 percent).
Following the recent weakness in auto sales and production, new orders for motor vehicles and parts fell 0.8 percent, the second straight decline. Autos have been one of the strongest areas for orders over the expansion, but we do not expect it to provide much support in the coming months given the high levels of dealer inventories and weakening sales environment for new vehicles.
Excluding transportation, orders missed the mark by falling 0.2 percent versus expectations for a 0.4 percent gain. In addition, relative to the headline's revisions, growth in February was revised up only 0.2 percentage points.
Nondefense capital goods orders excluding aircraft, our preferred bellwether of business equipment spending, rose 0.2 percent last month. Growth in core orders has slowed since the end of the last year, in part due to weaker orders for computers & electronics and machinery. Nevertheless, nondefense capital goods orders are running at a 6.0 percent three-month average annualized pace, compared to contracting as recently as this past summer. While that still looks sluggish relative to "soft" indicators on the factory sector, including the ISM manufacturing index, both the hard and soft data indicate a decent pace of expansion for manufacturing and business spending.
Q1 Equipment Spending Looks Solid
While orders were somewhat disappointing in March, shipments suggest business spending for the first quarter as a whole was solid. Nondefense shipments, a good guide of equipment spending, rose 1.3 percent last month. Real equipment spending has begun to claw its way back from the hole dug from late 2015 through most of last year, and today's reading on shipments points to a strong increase in Q1 business spending in tomorrow's GDP report. The slower pace of core capital goods orders, however, suggests a more moderate clip in Q2, but that business spending should continue to grow in the months ahead.

Jorvik Viking Festival Will Return to York in 2018
Have you heard of Jorvik? If not, it's time you should. The Jorvik Viking Festival is the largest Norse-themed festival in Europe. This year's Jorvik will be making its home in York to honour and celebrate the area's Viking settlers.
It's an event that regularly draws over 40,000 attendees, and the choice of York for this year's festival reflects the organiser's wish to tell the story of how the Vikings first took root in the area. Fittingly enough, we'll be looking forward to 'Invasion: The Dawn of Viking York'. It takes as its theme the arrival and conquest of the Great Viking Army in AD 866.
The 2018 Jorvik Viking Festival will tell of how those settlers arrived to create the capital of Viking-age England. Of course, it's going to feature many of the festival's most celebrated signature events, including the call to battle. This year's Call to Battle will invite the Viking hordes to march from York Minster to Coppergate, on Saturday, February 17.
An encampment will run in Parliament Street for the duration of The Dawn of Viking York. As a week-long commemoration of such an important moment in British history, any visitors will be able to learn everything from what settlers traded to what they wore to what kind of bold Scandinavian sagas they liked to tell each other around the fire.
There's set to be an exciting programme of events, with options to suit the whole family. You'll explore the impact of the Viking invasion on Anglo-Saxon England through impressive combat re-enactments, living history encampments, walks, talks, and even tours through the city.
If you're an educator, consider booking one of the specially designed cross-curricular and interactive workshops. During 45-minute sessions aimed at KS1 and KS2 pupils, organisers will help spark interest in the past through fun and interesting themes. It's a great chance to show your pupils history in a more exciting way. You can even check out the Jorvik site to find several 'Shaking Hands with the Past' podcasts focusing on unique artefacts and specifically aimed at primary school audiences.
There's sure to be something for everyone, and new events and happenings are being announced all the time, so make sure you sign up at their site or follow along on social media for the latest information.

In case you haven't noticed it's a rainy day outside today. Which means, it's a good time to get some coffee.
Here are some of our favorites in Palm Beach County.
This unique Swedish coffee shop, in downtown West Palm Beach, is a spot to sit and enjoy your hot brewed coffee in a proper ceramic cup, in a plush, deep-violet, Alice-In-Wonderland-like chair. You don't come here for a high-octane, Sharpie-on-paper-cup, American coffee, you come here to relax.
This hipster hangout on Clematis Street brews some delicious coffees that are roasted onsite. My favorite preparation: the macchiato, a bold café with the slightest puff of milk foam.


We do not accept returns on coffee due to the perishable nature of coffee. However, we are quite willing to resolve problems as they arise. If you have any issues with your coffee, or if there are errors in your order, please contact us at 631.238.5434 within 2 days of receiving your order. We will do our best to ensure that you are satisfied.

The effect of the type of carcinogen initiator on the ability of phenobarbital (PB) to promote hepatic tumor formation in 15-day-old initiated male B6C3F1 mice was evaluated. Fifteenday-old male B6C3F1 mice were divided into 6 groups of 10 mice each. Groups 1 and 2 received a single intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of diethylnitrosamine (DENA) (5 μg/body wt). Groups 3 and 4 received a single i.p. injection of diethylnitrosamine (DENA) (5 μg/g body wt). Groups 3 and 4 received a single i.p. injection of dimethylnitrosamine (DMNA) (5 μg/g body wt). Groups 5 and 6 received a single i.p. injection of saline. At weaning (28 days of age), mice in groups 2, 4 and 6 received PB (500 mg/ml) in their drinking water. Mice in groups 1, 3 and 5 received deionized drinking water. Drinking water treatment continued for 24 weeks at which time mice were sampled. At sampling, mice were examined for hepatic tumors by histology. Mice in groups 5 (no treatment) and 6 (PB only) did not exhibit hepatic tumors. Groups 2 (DENA + PB) displayed a decrease in hepatic adenomas from that of group 1 (DENA only), confirming previous observations. Treatment with DMNA and PB (group 4), however, resulted in a significant increase in both hepatic adenoma incidence and number over that of DMNA only (group 3) treated mice. The promoted adenomas appeared to be predominantly eosinophilic in appearance. The type of initiator therefore appears important in determining if 15-day-old initiated male B6C3F1 mice respond to the promotion effects of PB.

Curtis Park Village is approximately 70 acres of property located in Sacramento, CA. The Property is the former site of a Union Pacific Railroad yard and had significant contamination due its earlier uses as a maintenance yard as well as its use as a general rail facility. Renova acquired the property with a local developer and assumed responsibility for the remediation of the property and obtained an Environmental Liability Policy and a Remediation Stop Loss Policy that provides financial assurance and protection to current and future owners as well as tenants.
Renova worked with the neighborhood community and the City of Sacramento in the process to convert the property's zoning from heavy industrial to a mixed use that is primarily residential as well as smaller amounts of commercial and open space. The Company created value by managing the requisite environmental remediation, assisting in the rezoning and development planning, and then selling the property to the local development partner. Renova arranged to remediate the property to an unrestricted use standard before the beginning of construction on the property.

Iwindo war ein nach dem gleichnamigen, heute auf dem Territorium von Gabun gelegenen Fluss benannter Bezirk der deutschen Kolonie Kamerun, der größtenteils in dem 1911 durch das Marokko-Kongo-Abkommen erworbenen Neukamerun lag. Sitz der Verwaltung war Minkebe.

Die deutsche Inverwaltungnahme erfolgte durch die im Sommer 1912 in Jaunde neu formierte 12. Kompanie der Kaiserlichen Schutztruppe für Kamerun unter der Leitung des Hauptmanns Theodor von Heigelin. Durch Gouvernementsverfügung vom 17. Januar 1913 wurde der bisher zu Altkamerun gehörige Postenbereich Akoafim vom Bezirk Ebolowa getrennt und mit dem Wirkungsbereich der 11. Kompanie vereinigt. Heigelin wurden die Verwaltungsbefugnisse für den Bezirk übertragen.

Standort der Kompanie war anfangs der auf früher französischem Territorium gelegene Militärposten Ngarabinsam; im April 1914 wurde der Verwaltungssitz nach Akoafim verlegt, erst kurz vor Ausbruch des Ersten Weltkrieges nach Minkebe.

Federal Government Launches $10-million National Recreational Trails Program
June 26, 2014 – Sussex, New Brunswick – Infrastructure Canada
The Honourable Denis Lebel, Minister of Infrastructure, Communities and Intergovernmental Affairs and Minister of the Economic Development Agency of Canada for the Regions of Quebec, the Honourable Rob Moore, Regional Minister for New Brunswick and Minister of State (ACOA), and Jo-Anne Farquhar, President of the National Trails Coalition (NTC) today launched the National Recreational Trails Program.
Canada has a vast network of recreational trails which allow Canadians to experience the outdoors and appreciate this country's natural beauty. Thanks to a partnership between the Government of Canada and the National Trails Coalition, $10 million will be available between 2014 and 2016 to help expand and rehabilitate Canada's snowmobile, all-terrain vehicle and non-motorized trail system.
Now that the National Recreational Trails Program is "open for business", local trail organizations across Canada are invited to submit project proposals directly to the National Trails Coalition over the next 45 days. The Coalition is responsible for selecting and approving projects.
Economic Action Plan 2014 announced funding of $10 million over two fiscal years, 2014-15 and 2015-16, to expand and improve snowmobile, all-terrain vehicle, off-road motorcycle and non-motorized recreational trails across the country through an agreement between the Government of Canada and the National Trails Coalition.
This funding will help build and renew multi-purpose trails for walking, running, cross-country skiing, biking, all-terrain vehicle use and snowmobiling.
Local trail organizations across Canada can now submit project proposals directly to the National Trails Coalition.
Between 150 and 200 projects are expected to be supported across Canada.
"Our Government is pleased to renew its partnership with the National Trails Coalition and to announce the availability of $10 million for projects to expand and improve recreational and multi-purpose trails. By investing in trail infrastructure, the Government of Canada is encouraging job creation, linking communities and increasing recreational opportunities for Canadians. Through this agreement, the Government of Canada continues to support economic growth from coast to coast to coast while ensuring that Canadian communities remain among the best in the world to live."
- The Honourable Honourable Denis Lebel, Minister of Infrastructure, Communities and Intergovernmental Affairs and Minister of the Economic Development Agency of Canada for the Regions of Quebec
"The NTC was founded in the belief that trail users and volunteer trail builders/managers can achieve much more by working collaboratively and supporting each other's goals. Thanks to the support of our Federal Government, trail user groups can now apply for project funding to facilitate trail building, refurbishment, and upgrade activities that will be beneficial to the long term sustainability of all forms of trail-based activities across Canada."
- Jo-Anne Farquhar, President of the National Trails Coalition Board of Directors
Associated links
The NTC is made up of the following non-profit organizations and their provincial/territorial affiliates: Canadian Council of Snowmobile Organizations, the Canadian Off-Highway Vehicle Distributors Council and the Canadian Trails Federation. Organizations can access information, applications and guidelines for project proposal submissions.

In der Gattung Chilatherina (Griechisch cheilos "Lippe" + Atherina (Gattung der Ährenfische)) sind 11 Arten von Regenbogenfischen zusammengefasst, die nur im Norden und Westen der Insel Neuguinea vorkommen.

Merkmale
Die Gattung Chilatherina ist eng verwandt mit Melanotaenia. Hauptsächlich unterscheiden sich beide Gattungen in der Struktur der Kieferknochen und der Kopfform.

Der Körper von Chilatherina-Arten ist seitlich stark abgeflacht, der Kopf relativ spitz. Mit zunehmendem Alter wird die Körperform insbesondere bei Männchen hochrückiger. Die Färbung der kleineren Weibchen ist silbrig-blass im Vergleich zu den bunt schillernden Männchen. Die Fische werden mit einer Körperlänge von etwa 5 cm geschlechtsreif. Die meisten Arten der Gattung werden etwa 10 bis 12 cm groß.

Vorkommen
Chilatherina kommt ausschließlich nördlich des von West nach Ost verlaufenden zentralen Kettengebirges auf der Insel Neuguinea vor. Dort besiedeln die Arten die Zuflüsse der großen Flusssysteme Mamberamo, Sepik, Ramu und Markham. Eine Ausnahme bildet der Hochland-Regenbogenfisch, der auch südlich der Wasserscheide im Oberlauf des Purari vorkommt. Der Gestreifte Regenbogenfisch hat das größte Verbreitungsgebiet und bildet farblich unterschiedliche lokale Formen aus.

Habitat sind überwiegend offene, sonnenbeschienene Stellen in Fließgewässern mit tieferen Gumpen. Der Gestreifte Regenbogenfisch und Blehers Regenbogenfisch kommen auch lakustrin vor. Der Bodengrund der bewohnten Gewässer besteht aus Sand oder Kies und ist oft mit Blättern oder Totholz bedeckt. Die Nahrung besteht hauptsächlich aus Algen, Krustaceen, terrestrischen Insekten und aquatischen Insektenlarven.

Chilatherina sentaniensis konnte in den letzten Jahren nicht mehr in der Natur nachgewiesen werden. Das einzige in den letzten Jahrzehnten bekannte Vorkommen in einem Zufluss zum Sentanisee ist durch Abwässer einer Goldmine im Oberlauf erloschen; es gibt jedoch Aquarienpopulationen.

Systematik
In der Gattung Chilatherina sind 11 Arten zusammengefasst, die in folgende Verwandtschaftsgruppen (Kladen) gegliedert werden können:

 Klade 1
 Allens Regenbogenfisch (Chilatherina alleni) Price, 1997; in Flüssen im südöstlichen Gebiet der Cenderawasih-Bucht (West-Papua)
 Blehers Regenbogenfisch (Chilatherina bleheri) Allen, 1985; in Seen "Danau Bira" am Fuße des Van-Rees-Gebirges im Mamberamo-Becken (West-Papua)
 Gestreifter Regenbogenfisch (Chilatherina fasciata) (Weber, 1913); verbreitet in Flüssen vom Mamberamo-Becken bis zum Markham und im Sentani-See
 Azurblauer Regenbogenfisch (Chilatherina pricei) Allen & Renyaan, 1996; auf der Insel Yapen in der Cenderawasih-Bucht (West-Papua)
 Sentani-Regenbogenfisch (Chilatherina sentaniensis) (Weber, 1907); früher in mehreren Zuflüssen zum Sentani-See (West-Papua)
 Klade 2
 Axelrods Regenbogenfisch (Chilatherina axelrodi) Allen, 1979; im Paul River (früher: Neumayerfluss) im Bewani-Gebirge in der Provinz Sandaun (Papua-Neuguinea)
 Bulolo Regenbogenfisch (Chilatherina bulolo) (Whitley, 1938); punktuell in Zuflüssen des Markham und Ramu im Nordosten von Papua-Neuguinea
 Hochland Regenbogenfisch (Chilatherina campsi) (Whitley, 1957); verbreitet in Flüssen des Zentralen Hochlands in Papua-Neuguinea
 Silber Regenbogenfisch (Chilatherina crassispinosa) (Weber, 1913); verbreitet in Flüssen vom Mamberamo-Becken bis zum Markham
 Chilatherina pagwiensis Allen & Unmack, 2012; bisher nur in einem Zufluss des Sepik in der East Sepik Province (Papua-Neuguinea)

Nach genetischen Untersuchungen ist der Lorentz-Regenbogenfisch (Chilatherina lorentzi) (Weber, 1907) am engsten mit Melanotaenia japenensis und weiteren Melanotaenia- und Glossolepis-Arten aus dem Norden Neuguineas verwandt als mit allen anderen Regenbogenfischen. Andererseits wäre genetisch der Diamant-Regenbogenfisch (Melanotaenia praecox) der Klade Chilatherina zuzurechnen.

A: Problem seems to be in a "fancy" single quote you use in all actions, for example
'INSERTION'

If you look at what it really is (just first two characters):
select dump(''I') from dual;

The result shows
Typ=96 Len=4: 226,128,152,73

*

*226, 128, 152 represent that "fancy" single quote

*73 is a capital letter "I"

Once you replace it with a "normal" single quote, everything should be just fine. Actually, seeing how old this question is, I hope you fixed it already, but a little bit of debugging technique can't hurt much.

In 1996 I screwed up the courage to try my hand at writing after 30 years preaching in four urban churches. The question was, where would we live? The only place we owned was the 1830 farmhouse in rural Vermont we bought when we lived near Boston and for which we had paid less than many people in Southern California pay for their cars. We loved going there to get away, but live there?

Victoria Justice's got no beef with her "Victorious" co-star Ariana Grande, she reaffirmed in a HuffPost Live conversation on Thursday.
Whether that was always the case, however, is a different story. Many assumed that Grande was alluding to Justice with her claims of "on-set bullying," while Justice at one point suggested that the two would not be working together again.
But today, relations between the two starlets are definitively good, the former "Zoey 101" actress made clear to host Nancy Redd.
"There's no feuding going on right now," she said. "She's doing her thing, and I wish her the best."
The same goes for the rest of her "Victorious" castmates, whom she feels "really supportive of."
"I think they're all doing really cool, great things and I'm super happy for all of them -- genuinely," the "Soar With Reading" spokeswoman added.
Justice's new film, "Naomi and Ely's No Kiss List," will premiere July 17th at Los Angeles' Outfest.

Last tuesday I was invited to visit the exhibition "Gold of the Gods" in The Wereldmuseum, Rotterdam. "Gold of the Gods" is an exhibiton that consists of a collection of Javanese gold from the seventh to the eleventh centuries. The Wereldmuseum is the first museum that has the opportunity to exhibit this amazing collection of gold jewellery, which makes it even more special to visit.
"The mysterious world of the Javanese Kingdom remained closed to outsiders for over a thousand years, with only the statues hewn from lava rock at Borobudur displaying the wealth with which the Javanese rulers venerated their gods. The Wereldmuseum is bringing you a world première with its exhibition Gold of the Gods. It is a privilege to show you the most extensive collection of Javanese gold from the seventh to the eleventh centuries on display today, the beauty of which can barely be grasped by contemporary audiences."
After a tour through the exhibition guided by the director of The Wereldmuseum, Stanley Bremer, we had a lunch in the restaurant (one Michelin star). The restaurant has a nice view on the historic ferry harbour and a pleasant atmosphere. I enjoyed a luxury three course lunch served with delicious wine. The food was amazing with suprising flavor combinations and the staff attentive, warm and efficient. All together made it an exeptional food experience, highly recommended!
ziet er heel goed uit zeg!
Het lijkt me heel mooi om erna toe te gaan. Die buddha tussen je eten, prachtig!
Dat ziet er wel chique uit! Vooral die buddha tussen je eten!
Ik ga niet meer zo vaak naar musea maar denk erover om een museumjaarkaart aan te schaffen. Na 4 museumbezoekjes heb ik de kosten er al uit en dan zou ik veel vaker naar musea kunnen gaan!
Ja precies na vier keer heb je het eruit en dat moet wel lukken in een jaar;) ook verlaagt het de drempel en ga je makkelijker 'even' iets bezoeken. Ikzelf heb een CJP pas, scheelt ook veel!
Heel gaaf, ik moet zelf ook echt een museum jaarkaart aanvragen!

Q: Oracle BI publisher for each group alternate colors rtf I have a table inside a for-each group and I would want the table to have alternate colors.
I am using the below snippet in the rtf template
<?for-each-group:ROW;./INVOICE_NUMBER?>

The statement <?attribute@incontext:background-color;'lightgray'?>  throws an exception java.lang.ClassCastException: oracle.xdo.template.fo.elements.FOStaticContent cannot be cast to oracle.xdo.template.fo.elements.FOBlockLevel
How do I give a background colors to alternate groups inside the for each ?
Thanks

A: I assume this is not working - see
https://docs.oracle.com/middleware/11119/bip/BIPRD/supp_xsl_fo.htm
there is no support for background-color for blocks as far as I can see

A: Background colors are not supported. If you are using RTF templates, you could create a table in word with alternate row colors and it should work. (I haven't tried this)

Tenth evening
"I knew an old maid," said the Moon. "Every winter she wore a wrapper of yellow satin, and it always remained new, and was the only fashion she followed. In summer she always wore the same straw hat, and I verily believe the very same gray-blue dress.
"She never went out, except across the street to an old female friend; and in later years she did not even take this walk, for the old friend was dead. In her solitude my old maid was always busy at the window, which was adorned in summer with pretty flowers, and in winter with cress, grown upon felt. During the last months I saw her no more at the window, but she was still alive. I knew that, for I had not yet seen her begin the 'long journey,' of which she often spoke with her friend. 'Yes, yes,' she was in the habit of saying, when I come to die I shall take a longer journey than I have made my whole life long. Our family vault is six miles from here. I shall be carried there, and shall sleep there among my family and relatives.' Last night a van stopped at the house. A coffin was carried out, and then I knew that she was dead. They placed straw round the coffin, and the van drove away. There slept the quiet old lady, who had not gone out of her house once for the last year. The van rolled out through the town-gate as briskly as if it were going for a pleasant excursion. On the high-road the pace was quicker yet. The coachman looked nervously round every now and then—I fancy he half expected to see her sitting on the coffin, in her yellow satin wrapper. And because he was startled, he foolishly lashed his horses, while he held the reins so tightly that the poor beasts were in a foam: they were young and fiery. A hare jumped across the road and startled them, and they fairly ran away. The old sober maiden, who had for years and years moved quietly round and round in a dull circle, was now, in death, rattled over stock and stone on the public highway. The coffin in its covering of straw tumbled out of the van, and was left on the high-road, while horses, coachman, and carriage flew past in wild career. The lark rose up carolling from the field, twittering her morning lay over the coffin, and presently perched upon it, picking with her beak at the straw covering, as though she would tear it up. The lark rose up again, singing gaily, and I withdrew behind the red morning clouds."

Picnic lovers enjoy boat rides at Uhuru Park's artificial lake.
As I was growing up, I knew Uhuru Park was meant for 'shady' people. No offense, but that's the mentality I had for the longest time. If I were told I'd be hanging out at the park, I would literally tuck myself in a corner and cry uncontrollably. I always thought my friends would laugh at me or even look at me differently.
However, as more as I got exposed to the outside world, the more I appreciated local tourism. So, this was unexpected when I decided to tour the park I once loathed.
It took me around 10 minutes to walk to the park from Kencom bus stage in Nairobi CBD. It was a sunny Saturday afternoon and for a place I've never thought of venturing, it was quite impressive. The expansive green fields were an attraction to the eyes.
Uhuru Park is a recreational ground adjacent to the CBD. The late Mzee Jomo Kenyatta opened it to the general public on May 23, 1969. I now understand why Nobel Laureate, Wangari Maathai, fought against a planned construction of a 62-storey building.
Saving the park was worth it. It's home to many functions including celebrations of National holidays, prayer meetings, concerts and serves as a favourable recreation centre for many families. Since we had some pizza on us, we were up and ready for picnicking.
We found a spot just near the artificial lake that's in the middle of the park. I noticed one could have a panoramic view of the city from up the park. The expansive lawns and trees offered cool breeze for those who were after some relaxation. There were preachers here and there out to win souls and also make a living from it.
As we started to enjoy our meal, more than three people must have approached us with different needs. There was an urchin who was really impressive with his trapping skills. He really got us entertained with Migos music. He aspired to be a rapper someday.
From a distance, I could see a group of college students on a photo shoot, I guess for their gram. For our pass time, we opted to go for a boat ride. There is a fee of Sh200 for adults to ride the boat for half an hour.
If you don't know how to ride-peddle the boat, an assistant is there to help you with the ride. While at it you can feed the fish with bread. It was breathtaking. A fountain that was built during former President Daniel Arap Moi's era, with the mantra: Peace, Love and Unity still stands tall at the park.
Uhuru Park is usually packed during the weekends, especially by picnicking families. The place is also ideal for anyone who just needs to breath some fresh air and to be one with nature. The free-to-enter park closes business at 6pm and usually there are officers on patrol just making sure no one stays back after dark.

Huge Urban Farming Complex Coming to Shanghai
By Callie
Urban farming is no stranger in Shanghai. There are small, soil-based growing operations scattered around the metropolis. In fact, a century ago much of Shanghai's food supply came from 300,000 hectares of farmland that ringed the city. But like many cities, population growth and urban sprawl did away with most agricultural land on the perimeter. Today, Shanghai is home to about 24 million people. Feeding them has become a challenge that vertical farming can change.
When approached last fall about handling Shanghai's new 250-acre urban farming complex design and planning, international architectural firm Sasaki was totally intrigued. The project incorporates food production, research and development space, commerce and education, and housing and public park space in one envelope. It encompasses everything a person needs: a place to learn, play, work, eat, shop, and live.
Construction on the Sunqiao Urban Agricultural District site in the Dupong District midway between downtown and the international airport is set to begin in 2018. No old buildings need to be demolished to make way for the new complex. This chunk of land has been farmed conventionally for the past twenty years, the limitations of which inspired devising a plan to turn a portion of the city into a high-tech food production hub. Sunqiao is the beginning of their big picture.
Unlike urban farming operations in Shanghai to date, Sunqaio will blend better with the towering skyscrapers that surround it. A lot of it is going to be vertical farming to capitalize on maximizing the harvest per square foot of land. The towering greenhouses incorporate vertical hydroponics, aquaponics, and automation. But it's not going to be all indoor farming. Food will be grown outside too.
Some very interesting things are planned to go into this urban farming space. A vertical seed library, for one, illustrated as a towering circle of individual pockets for seed sorting accuracy and easy location. Now there's something we haven't seen before. Will it be motorized to bring what you seek to you and browse if you're not sure? A grower's seed-o-matic… how cool.
The entire system will be self-sufficient too. To capitalize on sunlight for plant growth, growing beds will rotate along the walls and roof of the multi-story greenhouses. Rainwater harvesting will also incorporate vertical, multi-leveled storage. Even architectural features like support columns will be put to use for plants that need trellising. And planning for structure position and design makes the most of the sun's energy for crops throughout the complex.
Far more than a lettuce factory. Beyond the agrihood concept. The innovation on this project brought Sasaki Associates the high honor of being selected a finalist in FastCo's World Changing Ideas in the food category.
Shanghai has a goal to become a leader in urban food production. Incorporating that into the public space with both indoor and outdoor experiences creates a new approach to urban living. It will also rekindle a strong connection between a person and where their food comes from. No hiding behind a suggestive label, or an ocean away. It will be locally grown in a highly transparent way.
Take a good look at planning and design renderings on the links below. They are most interesting.

"The Judaization of Art and Press" has always been one of the most effective theses of German National Socialism. The argument is that Jewish talent, through intrigue, through artifice or through power has crowded out existing "Aryan" talents. Now that the Jewish artists, writers, journalists, actors, and musicians have been forcibly expelled from Germany, it would seem that these previously "hindered" great "Aryan" talents never existed. Theatre, cabaret, film and literature have sunk, in Germany, to the lowest level.
In all this time, not a single work, not a single voice has been heard which might even remotely be compared with the artistic level of Germany before 1933. What the German Jews actually meant to German art is only now becoming evident, now when the German public no longer reads its newspapers, and no longer visit the theatre, where the wealth of a creative spirit no longer is offered, but only a "trend" bearing the stamp of approval of the ministry for propaganda, which commanded it.
A second thesis of National Socialism is that relating to the destructive, injurious nature of the Jews. "Aryan-ry" is constructive in tendency, building of "Blood and the Soil." Jewry, on the other hand, is destructively analytical, working only with its brain and its nerves, said the Nazi propagandist.
These Jewish artists who within the year have been torn from their German soil, went to France, to Switzerland, to Scandinavia, Holland, Czechoslovakia. Only a few went to the United States. They suffered inconceivably, both economically and spiritually. If they were writers, their works were snatched up by emigrant publishing houses in Holland. Translations of their works, which had no nationalistic limitations, had their effect upon the world, which had broken from Hitler Germany.
They struggle, but there is some hope for them. Language, their instrument, has been torn from their hands. They learn that of their new environment. And in ten years, perhaps, they will write so well in this new language, that the stamp of their style will be recognizable in it.
But the others—the actors! Of course, there are cases like that of Elizabeth Bergner, who worked night and day for a year to learn the tones, rhythms and phonetics of English, and has thus now become a most successful English actress. Or Peter Lorre, one of the most important of the younger actors, who has been given a contract in Hollywood. The Zurich theatre has taken in Gustav Hartung, Germany's most talented director besides Max Reinhardt, and a staff of the best of German actors.
But the rest? Almost a year passed before they found themselves in groups again, groups which could not act in the theatre because there was no economic basis for that. So they decided to set up cabarets. Erika Mann (daughter of the Nobel prize winner, Thomas Mann), who is a talented and gifted actress, is heading such an ensemble at Zurich. And in Paris an establishment called "Paris-Vienna" was opened near the Place de la Concorde. There Kurt Gerron, talented and popular German actor, and Peter Bach, Germany's most famous lute-player, fill the stage.
Unelaborated truth demands that it be said that none of these are ideal solutions, but rather the product of necessity, and will never compensate for that which has been lost in values. A world lies in ruins and will never rise again. Unless Germany awakens. But even in that event she has been having anti-Semitic dreams too long. There are dreams which do not leave one's blood even on awakening.


Yesterday I attended the MacArthur Foundation's press briefing and panel discussion on their efforts to build the field of digital media and learning, held at the American Museum of Natural History in New York (but nowhere near the squid and the whale). The facts on this initiative are impressive: a $50 million commitment over the next five years, six volumes to be penned by an interdisciplinary group of experts and published in 2007, and several exploratory grants for projects already in progress. You can read more about it at the official website for the initiative, and will soon be able to access webcast and podcast versions of the event.
The panel portion of the event featured Mimi Ito of USC, Henry Jenkins of MIT, and Nichole Pinkard of the University of Chicago. The discussion of their research in media literacy and convergence culture (Jenkins), informal learning through new media and technology (Ito), and transforming school and other structured-learning environments (Pinkard) revealed many issues that practitioners in this new field will face, including the continuing lack of internet and technology access among low-income and minority children, how some parents and schools actually stifle a rich and developing online youth culture by barring children?s access to new media under the belief that ?too much is bad for you,? and the benefits of semi-structured learning environments like libraries and museums in digital learning.
The live audience at the Museum and the audience in Second Life (which nearly filled the 50-person virtual ?room? set up for the viewing, according to moderator and MacArthur program officer Connie Yowell) demonstrated the broad implications for this initiative. Representatives from PBS and MTV asked about the future role of television in digital learning; Paul LeClerc, the president of the New York Public Library, reported that digital visitors to the NYPL's website now outnumber physical visitors at their branch locations for the first time; and Larry Grossman, co-chair of the Digital Promise Initiative, engaged MacArthur President Jonathan Fanton in the role of lifelong learning in this initiative. In addition to the formal institutions and tools of education that these voices represent, one audience member pointed out that "it's clear that play is a viable learning context" today and its educational impact is impossible to ignore.
For more information, I encourage you to see the MacArthur Digital Media & Learning website (link provided above), particularly the blog section, to contribute your own thoughts as the initiative moves forward. And, of course, stay tuned to the HASTAC website and my blog as we keep close watch on these topics.

Productive Living: Mental Health, with Scout Sobel – TPW360
August 18, 2021 by Laura in podcast • Leave a Comment
How does your mental health affect your productivity and making a life that matters, especially if you are made to feel that you have to conceal your true feelings? Join Scout Sobel and me in this latest episode of the Productive Living series as we talk about feeling safe in your emotions, living in alignment, and going after your dreams.
Taking care of your mental health is an important part of making a life that matters
Scout Sobel is the CEO of Scout's Agency, host of the Scout podcast, co-host of Okay Sis podcast, and author of the new book, The Emotional Entrepreneur. Scout lives in San Diego with her husband and princess Pomeranian and enjoys journaling, reading, having Happy Hour with her friends, and watching Parks & Rec and Jurassic Park.
Scouts journey to who she is today
Scout's entrepreneurial journey began with many different iterations until she got to where she is today–and who she is today wasn't even possible until she discovered podcasting. Each step she took along the way was important, though, and had an impact on who she is.
Scout had her first depressive episode when she was 14 years old (although she remembers feeling some symptoms between the ages of 4 and 6–behavioral problems and social isolation) and was formally diagnosed with bipolar disorder Type Two at the age of 20.
Her mental health journey has had many iterations and symptoms, including depression, anxiety, hypomania, catatonia, psychosis, paranoia, and suicidal ideation. Upon receiving her diagnosis and being deemed as nonfunctional by her doctors, she dropped out of college due to an inability to function in today's society – a theme that would play out in her early twenties as she quit every minimum wage job, internship, or program she started. During this time she also participated in outpatient programs and tried different medications.
At the age of 23, she discovered entrepreneurship and realized that this was a play her mental illness could "dance" in. Her highest of highs and lowest of lows often mirrored entrepreneurship, so it was a good fit for her.
Although Scout has been a functioning member of society since her mid-20s (and she is now approaching 30), it's only been within the last year and a half that she has finally felt safe and comfortable with her mental illness and all the emotions she experiences. She feels grounded now and no longer views her mental illness as her enemy, but rather her guiding light.
When Scout speaks about her mental illness, she is often admired for her bravery and strength because it's not easy to talk about. She understands there is a shame and stigma around mental illness (and when she was first diagnosed there was very little social media) but she never felt for one minute that she shouldn't share her story. She shares it openly and with pride because her mental illness is a part of who she is.
Scout's advice for someone who is experiencing hopelessness
There was a pivotal moment in Scout's life when she started to take responsibility for her own healing after her boyfriend (who's now her husband) looked at her within two months of dating and said, "If you are depressed and hopeful, I can be in this relationship. If you are depressed and hopeless, I can't be here with you."
In that moment, he showed Scout that she was actually in control and had the ability to have hope, faith, and gratitude, rather than exist in a victimhood mentality and let other's opinions influence her. After losing so much already, she knew she didn't want to lose him–so she added hope, and with that hope, Scout began attending support groups, reading every self-help book she could find, expressing gratitude, and developing a prayer practice.
If you are someone who is feeling hopeless, it's likely because others have put parameters around what you are capable of doing with your life. Those parameters are false limiting beliefs and narratives that you don't have to adopt. You can learn to show up for yourself even when it's hard. You have to be willing to put in hard work over time and to accept the cards you have been dealt.
Feeling safe in your emotions
"Feeling safe in your emotions" is the ultimate mantra in Scout's life. When we are uncomfortable in our emotions, such as with anxiety, it can be painful because we don't feel safe in that experience. Scout has learned to really feel her emotions, without negating them or making them feel wrong, while also feeling safe in what she is feeling. This allows the emotions to pass much quicker.
Scout read a book by Glennon Doyle called Untamed, in which she says the phrase, "I can't take it anymore" only to realize that she could still take it again and actually was taking it time after time. This totally reframed Scout's feelings about her emotions because when she felt that initial pain and felt like she couldn't take it anymore, she realized that she really could. She could survive the pain. She began to write down the phrase, "I am safe in my emotions" on notes all around her and when she was anxious, she would write it over and over again. After a couple of months of meditating on this, she really did feel safe because she had mental evidence that she could survive. She could deal with emotions with a beautiful trust instead of a chaotic energy.
Pain is inevitable but suffering is optional. ~ Brooke Castillo, The Life Coach School podcast
What does it mean to be out of alignment?
In Scout's book, one of the phrases she uses several times is "out of alignment". Being in alignment means being in flow and for Scout it's an internal indicator that what is being done is of the highest purpose, in relation to one's interests, belief systems, and purpose on this planet.
When Scout is in alignment she feels light and happy and energetic. She has no restrictions and can put her whole self into a project without feeling drained.
When she is out of alignment she feels tired and drained and irritable. She can also be more selfish and let her ego get in the way.
Scout's bipolar disorder is constantly challenging her alignment, causing her to continuously confirm that she isn't taking on too much or doing the wrong things. When she isn't making decisions that are in alignment with who she needs to be, she will always self-destruct.
Being in alignment should be the highest vision we have for our lives because we know we are living in our purpose. We need to discover what our "zone of genius" is–what excites us and lights us up. We will still have challenges in our lives, even when we are in alignment, but the challenges are worth walking through.
Scout's new book, The Emotional Entrepreneur
Scout's new book is the ultimate emotional guide for entrepreneurs or anyone who is looking to build their life to the best of their ability or manifest their dreams. She wrote it because as she became more successful with her agency, she realized how emotional of a journey and experience it was. It highlighted her strengths and weaknesses and put them on full display.
Scout became successful because she persevered through every emotional challenge that came her way. She realized very early on that entrepreneurship and business is not just a game of strategy, but also of being able to handle the emotional challenges that will come your way in pursuit of growth.
Scout noticed that so many women were not pursuing their dreams for fear of putting themselves out there and being unable to handle the emotions of uncertainty. Scout's book has 25 lessons of emotional mindset that she has acquired by living with bipolar disorder and overcoming emotions that came with building her business.
In the book, Scout refers to failure as a "beautiful mentor", meaning that instead of failure being about impending doom, failure is instead something that we all experience and can learn from. We should not be ashamed of it.
We take failure so personally but Scout says to instead consider it a guide that will let know when you've taken the wrong direction and steer you towards the right one. Failure will get you closer to success.
You are never a failure if you learn from something that didn't work and use those teachings to add more color to your life. ~The Emotional Entrepreneur
Scout's book also includes sections on ways to cultivate self-worth, tools for maintaining a healthy and productive life, including morning and evening routines, and other greats tips and insights.
What does "making a life that matters" mean to Scout?
To Scout, this means that she is simultaneously grateful for her life while also giving back to others as a collective. When she first started Scout's Agency, her perspective was narrow, focused on supporting herself with a business she created. As the agency started to grow and become successful, Scout was able to shift her focus more to how she wanted to convey all she had learned to others to improve their lives. Making a life that matters means being in alignment inside so you can share that alignment with others.
What do you do to get back on track on a day when everything gets away from you?
Scout has these days all the time and when they occur, she first acknowledges that she is having a bad day. She reminds herself that it is temporary and that in order to survive she has to experience it. Depending on the level of overwhelm or stress, she may need to fit in some more self-care, meditate more, read an inspiring book (fiction, not business), or even get outside. On bad days Scout doubles down on self-care and intentional rest rather than just numbing out. When she focuses on herself, the day and feelings pass each time without fail.
Scout's last words for the listener
If you can cultivate the belief that you are safe in your emotions, you will be able to grow with purpose and handle the seasons, challenges, and dreams of your life. Sit in your emotions in silence and feel safe in your emotions.

Hopeful that India will have sporting events from September or October: Kiren Rijiju
Rijiju recently attended the Ministerial Forum of Commonwealth countries to share India's road to resumption of sport, post COVID-19 pandemic, and also to contribute to the creation of a collaborative sports policy in the post pandemic era.
New Delhi: Union Sports Minister Kiren Rijiju has said that he hopes sporting activities in the country, which have been on a standstill since mid-March due to the COVID-19 pandemic, will resume by September of October.
Speaking at the global forum, which saw participation from all Commonwealth countries, Rijiju said, "As members of Commonwealth nations we need to stand in solidarity on all issues, especially at a time like this. I am glad to be on this forum with all other Commonwealth nations to collaborate on the way forward."
"Most of the points raised here by ministers from other countries are similar to that of India's. However, there are some significant learnings and achievements that we have had during this period, which I would like to share."
However, in the second phase of lockdown, on-ground training and conducting sporting activities will be the focus of the Indian government, he reiterated. "The government has allowed some sporting activities with certain restrictions while following a stringent SOP, the guidelines that must be followed by every sporting organisation."
"I am happy to inform that the training of our elite, Olympic-bound athletes has begun in specialised camps, recently. I have also spoken to the sports ministers of all states and union territories, as well as the National Sports Federations and asked them to slowly resume some sporting events. We need that to boost the confidence of people.
"I am hopeful India will have sporting events from September or October, even the big leagues in various sports are considering resumption," the Sports Minister added.
Pointing to the importance of citizens staying fit during the pandemic, the Sports Minister said, "I would like to inform all ministers on this forum that a very important programme, the Fit India Movement, was launched by our Prime Minister last year, and it has been very useful in fighting the pandemic since building fitness and immunity is crucial during these COVID-19 times."
"India has successfully created awareness about the importance of staying fit through a series of dedicated online programs for citizens on fitness and well-being, all through the pandemic. Experts have shared their advice on health, nutrition, exercises that citizens of all age groups has used successfully."
Rijiju also spoke of diversification of sports delivery models and shared how India is successfully running online training programs for athletes and skill upgradation courses for coaches.
"We have seen participation from thousands of athletes of various levels and coaches who have been hugely benefitted by these knowledge enhancement programs," he said.

Selling the family farm was hard. Since we couldn't run the farm from Arizona, we had to put emotions aside and make a decision that would be best for the family. Marc was a strong support system for the family, throughout the whole process.
Marc's expertise was phenomenal. He got out there, got his hands dirty, and did his homework on the history of our family farm. All his leg work and research paid off for our bottom line...having a successful auction.
When Marc explained how they go about marketing a property, I knew I was in good hands. He uses a lot of different ways to get the word out so I was confident he'd draw a lot of interest so we could get the best price – and he did!
Marc did a great job of walking me through the entire process, including the emotional decision to sell. I appreciate how he did this without crowding me into making a decision. He is a good listener and really respected my thought process throughout.
He heard my concerns and then helped me make informed decisions.
It was my attorney who recommended Marc, and he impressed me from the initial meeting. It was very easy to work with him and I felt like he empathized with my situation completely. He showed me nothing but respect as I worked through the difficult decision to sell.
I always felt like Marc was looking out for me, not just himself and his company. That was huge in my decision to go with Reck Agri.
I recently sold land that was owned by my grandfather, then my parents. It was tough on me emotionally because I felt like I was betraying them. Marc guided me through it with great empathy.
I was most impressed with how thorough they were. Marc knew everything there was to know about my land before the sale. He asked a lot of questions and works hard to get the answers he needs to represent the property.
What I loved about the auction process is that it gave everyone an equal chance to buy. It lent a sense of finality to the sale and allowed for the absolute maximum value to be realized. Everyone seemed very content with the outcome because the expectations were clear.
The farm has been part of my family for over 100 years so it was tough to sell it. Marc was very empathetic and conscious of my feelings.
I've been to other auctions before, but the way Reck Agri approaches an auction is much different. By splitting the land into parcels, it really drives up the value. And come auction day, everything is done in a short period of time. It doesn't drag on the way it can if you sell the traditional way.
The auction itself was impressive. It started with the Pledge of Allegiance, which set a nice tone. The auction was well organized and once it got going, it really got exciting.
Marc has a super team. They work so well together and made it all very enjoyable. I didn't have to worry about anything.
Our farm had been in the family for 65 years so we had a strong sense of grief thinking we were selling our family legacy. Marc and his team understood what we were going through emotionally and made us very comfortable with our decision.
Marc is a unique professional with a unique skill. He had our best interests in mind the whole time. I highly recommend him and his top-notch team.


This is a description of a war that is being fought by ____________ against a guerrilla force based in the Afghan/Pakistan border area.
Considering those situations it is absurd that countries don't look or try to understand past failures.
Many conflicts could possibly be avoided as well as many lifes not destroyed!
My humble naïve 2 cents!

La bataille de Toury, ou de Thoury est une bataille qui eut lieu en 1112 dans le royaume de France.

Depuis l'avènement de Louis VI en 1108, la guerre contre les seigneurs puissants du royaume de France est quasi continuelle. Les sièges sont plus courants que les batailles en rase campagne, il y en a eu, comme celle de Toury (ou Thoury) en 1112 qui vit la défaite de Louis VI face à une coalition entre autres des forces du comte de Blois, de Raoul, sire de Beaugency et du seigneur de Thoury, seigneur de Thoury-sur-Besbre. L'armée royale après la bataille dut trouver refuge à Orléans, Étampes et Pithiviers.

Conveniently Scapegoating Obama Is Cool Now?!
The arguments Donald Glover is making here is nonsensical. Barack Obama wanting to become president, and then actually becoming president did not make it any more harder than it already is on Black people in this country. If I aspire to be in a socioeconomic position that has always been held and favored by whites, but have not been reluctant about embracing my racial identity, nor shy about confronting racism, then why would my experience appear to be making it harder for black people? Actually it is quite the opposite. We could only be seen as contributing to setting a new precedent by doing away with stereotypical perceptions and disabusing ourselves of the dominant framing of racist ideologies. The fact of the matter is that there remains far too many unnecessary obstacles for a person of color to have to course and navigate through if the goal is to live up to one's potential.
Comparatively speaking, Glover has badly misspoken about the current plight of Black people in this regrettable instance. Apparently you can be a talented celebrity figure and be misguided and unenlightened at the same time. The lived experiences of police brutality today being captured and shared in the advent of social media and video technology should not be mistaken as worse than those Blacks that have perished or have had endured a far worse quality of life in the past. Undocumented stories do abound and do evidence a racial strife that was far more prolific in the past, especially when such egregious incivility was sanctioned eras ago–when conditions were comparatively more hostile for Blacks.
Any period between the end of the Civil Rights Era and prior to the election of President Obama should also not be confused as some dormant period of hospitable racial relations either. That would be asinine. There has always been a persistent struggle and fight for civil rights and equal justice at work that contribute to our advancement. Therefore, and again, Obama's presidency is a continuation of that and cannot be seen as making it worse for Blacks.
This apparent "let down" of the first African-American president that some people have mistakenly grief-stricken themselves into being is puzzling to me. This idea that President Obama has "done nothing" or "can't do anything" is contextually deceiving in terms of expectations. Without going into much detail, I will sum this up conclusively as this. It is highly improbable for change on the magnitude of 1) receiving reparations, or 2) ending institutional racism, or 3) ending racism period in a majoritative democracy like this one in one fell swoop of electing the first black president of the United States. Many so-called Americans are still in denial, quite uninformed, and have unwittingly or wittingly subscribed to the dominant frame (the white frame) as they continue to reap the tremendous benefits sown (with white privilege, affirmative actions, and appropriations in tow) from a racialized and violent American history and society.
In fact, what this presidency has shed light upon is what has often been hidden in the dark from plain sight or has been glossed over in reporting. The institutional racial discourse has now rightfully received far greater attention and extensive examination than it has ever before, which brings us definitvely much closer to finding a resolve to racism in the future for humanities sake. But simply put there is just a whole lot of misinformation and misinterpretations being rambled off in this somewhat influential and popular "Breakfast Club" interview.
