For the week ending 24 May 2003 / 22 Iyyar 5763
Earning Peace
Peace is the sweet dream of all Mankind. It has particular significance for the Jewish People whose history is filled with so much conflict, exile and persecution.
In the little more than half a century of its existence, the modern State of Israel has experienced half a dozen wars on its borders, and the threat of missile attacks in two wars beyond its borders. No wonder then that a special emotion will surge in the heart of the Jew who hears the Divine promise of "peace in your land" in this weeks Torah reading.
Peace, however, cannot be achieved by simply dreaming of it or even fighting and negotiating for it. Peace, says the Torah, must be earned by the people who received the Torah as a guide for living their individual and national lives.
How does one earn the right to peace, without which all the blessings of economic prosperity listed at the outset of this weeks Torah portion are meaningless?
The answer is clearly stated in the very first words of this portion: "If you shall go in My statutes and observe My commandments".
"Go in My statutes," explain our Sages, "does not refer to the fulfillment of G-ds commandments which is explicitly mentioned. It refers rather to the additional need for the diligent study of Torah.
It is indeed tragic to witness the change of governmental attitude towards the support of yeshivot and kolelim in Eretz Yisrael. For virtually all the years of statehood there has been financial support for these institutions. Even though that support was considerably less than what was provided for universities and secular schools it did contribute significantly to the ability of the Torah world to persevere in its diligent study of Torah and earn Heavenly protection for a beleaguered land. When Jews hear the promise of peace this week and the conditions for this dream coming true they should offer a prayer that G-d opens the eyes of misguiding leaders who fail to see what protects Israel forever.

Why Media Should Be Skeptical Of Koch Brothers' New Anti-Poverty Group
Officials from the Koch brothers' funding arm have announced a new "venture philanthropy" project called Stand Together, with aims of "strengthening the fabric of American society," and focusing on "poverty" and "educational quality," according to USA Today. Media should know that: previous Koch-backed poverty and education efforts have been coupled with ideological proselytizing, Stand Together's executive director is a Koch veteran and former Republican congressional candidate who repeatedly fearmongered about the Affordable Care Act (ACA), and the group's top collaborator is associated with U.S. House Speaker Paul Ryan's sham "anti-poverty" efforts.
Koch Officials Announce New Initiative To "Make A Real Difference In People's Lives"
USA Today: "New Group Will Take On Poverty, Educational Quality." A January 29 USA Today article reported that top officials in the Koch brothers' "empire" confirmed the launch of Stand Together, a new nonprofit "venture philanthropy" effort that will aim to address "social problems." The group's "initial efforts will focus on poverty and educational quality," and the group will be run by Evan Feinberg, a long-time operative for Charles and David Koch:
The political and policy empire controlled by billionaire industrialist Charles Koch is building a non-profit wing its leaders say will work to address deep-seated social ills and "revitalize civil society." Its initial efforts will focus on poverty and educational quality.
The organization, known as Stand Together, is still in its start-up phase but aims to raise $15 million this year, top officials told USA TODAY in the first interview about the new organization. Organizers described Stand Together as engaging in "venture philanthropy" aimed at "strengthening the fabric of American society."
"The sole purpose of Stand Together is to make a real difference in real people's lives by actually solving the problems they have," the group's executive director, Evan Feinberg, said.
He said the group won't veer into policy fights but instead initially plans to focus on partnerships with private groups addressing social problems, such as gang violence and high recidivism rates.
Koch aides have worked internally for nearly a year on Stand Together, but the group will make its first public splash this week -- launching its website and broadly sharing its plans as an annual winter seminar for hundreds of Koch donors opens Saturday near Palm Springs, Calif. [USA Today, 1/29/16 [1]]
CNN Quoted Koch Official Saying Stand Together Would Try To Win Over Voters. CNN reported in September 2015 that a senior Koch official originally portrayed Stand Together as a "major effort" to win over "the middle third of voters":
Evan Feinberg, who since 2013 was the executive director of Generation Opportunity, the youth engagement arm of the Koch Brothers' political network, departed the organization in June. He will now lead a new group to be called Stand Together for America. Feinberg's move is the most high-profile loss in what people familiar with Generation Opportunity describe as a string of senior level departures that are roiling the nonprofit group.
A senior director within the Koch network said the group would be a "third leg" of the Kochs' organization focused on winning over moderate voters, along with voters generally disengaged from politics. Donors were briefed on the group at the last two conferences organized by Freedom Partners, the umbrella funding organization at the heart of the network.
"The goal of it going forward is reaching out to what is termed the middle third of voters," said the senior director. "It's going to be a major effort." [CNN.com, 9/1/15 [2]]
Koch-Funded Initiatives And Organizations Support Policies That Hurt The Poor
Koch-Backed "Libre Initiative" Purports To "Empower Hispanics," But Pushes Policies That Would Disproportionately Hurt Poor Hispanics. Libre Initiative, backed by more than $10 million in Koch funding, purports to "empower Hispanics," but experts say the organization supports policies that "disenfranchise Hispanic voters" and opposes programs that would help millions of Hispanics living in poverty. Libre opposes the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and minimum wage increases, both of which would disproportionately benefit the Hispanic community, especially those living in poverty, and supports voter ID laws that would "disenfranchise Hispanic voters, other minorities, and the poor." [Media Matters, 3/2/15 [3]]
Politico: Kochs' "War On Poverty" Comes With "A Side Dish Of Conservative Proselytizing." A December 2015 Politico report detailed the tactics of a new program housed under the Kochs' Americans for Prosperity Foundation called "Bridge to Wellbeing," which targets poor communities with social programs accompanied by an ideological push opposing federal poverty alleviation programs. The article opened:
The political operation created by the billionaire conservative mega-donors Charles and David Koch is quietly investing millions of dollars in programs to win over an unlikely demographic target for their brand of small-government conservatism âۥ poor people.
The outreach includes everything from turkey giveaways, GED training and English-language instruction for Hispanic immigrants to community holiday meals and healthy living classes for predominantly African American groups to vocational training and couponing classes for the under-employed. The strategy, according to sources familiar with it and documents reviewed by POLITICO, calls for presenting a more compassionate side of the brothers' politics to new audiences, while fighting the perception that their groups are merely fronts for rich Republicans seeking to game the political process for personal gain.
The efforts include a healthy dose of proselytizing about free enterprise and how it can do more than government to lift people out of poverty. [Politico, 12/14/15 [4]]
Kochs Seek To Weaken Teachers Unions And Push Their Ideology On College Campuses
Koch-Backed Center For Individual Rights Is Challenging Teachers Unions At Supreme Court. In Friedrichs v. California Teachers Association, the Koch-funded Center for Individual Rights is representing 10 California public school teachers challenging the state teachers union's ability to charge agency fees to cover the fair share of bargaining benefits for those who choose not to join the union. Some media have noted that the case could severely weaken all public-sector unions, as well as teachers unions specifically. Research shows strong teachers unions benefit students as well as local communities. [Media Matters, 1/11/16 [5], 12/22/15 [6]]
Center For Public Integrity Investigation: Koch Higher Education Donations Come With "Strings Attached." A 10-month investigation by the Center for Public Integrity found that Koch-led charitable foundations donated "more than $19.3 million across 210 college campuses in 46 states in 2013," and that these donations often had "some strings attached," such as targeting donations to fund specific classes or positions for specific faculty members affiliated with the Kochs' political leanings, requiring students in Koch-funded classes to provide email addresses to the Charles Koch Foundation, or asking institutions to consult the foundation prior to speaking to the press. The investigation concluded, "The Koch brothers use donations and key connections to amass clout on college campuses. The money often helps forward their political goals and to build a 'talent pipeline' of libertarian-minded students" (emphasis added):
During 2013, a pair of private charitable foundations Charles Koch leads and personally bankrolls combined to spread more than $19.3 million across 210 college campuses in 46 states and the District of Columbia, according to a Center for Public Integrity analysis of Internal Revenue Service tax filings.
That represents a significant increase from the $12.7 million the Koch foundations distributed among 163 college campuses in 41 states and the District of Columbia during 2012. It's also exponentially more than what the Koch foundations together spent directly on higher education a decade ago.
The Center for Public Integrity reviewed hundreds of private documents, emails and audio recordings that, along with interviews with more than 75 college officials, professors, students and others, indicate the Koch brothers' spending on higher education is now a critical part of their broader campaign to infuse politics and government with free-market principles.
The Kochs' giving, however, has a laser-like focus on a specific, politically relevant discipline -- free market economics -- unmatched by other political mega-donors. Koch officials routinely cultivate relationships with professors and deans and fund specific courses of economic study pitched by them.
Detractors argue the Koch brothers' college-focused money, by helping advance a philosophy of economic liberty, is eroding a fundamental aspect of higher education: academic freedom. [Center for Public Integrity, 10/30/15 [7]]
In 2014, Koch Donations To Higher Education Reached New High. The Center for Public Integrity reported in December 2015 that the Koch philanthropic arm had further boosted its donations to institutions of higher education in 2014, according to new tax documents. [Center for Public Integrity, 12/15/15 [8]]
Stand Together's Executive Director Ran Fearmongering Anti-Obamacare Media Campaign And Touted Extreme Positions In Failed Congressional Run
Feinberg Published Op-Eds In Numerous State Newspapers As Part Of Campaign To Scare Young People Away From Enrolling In Obamacare. During the 2013-2014 Obamacare enrollment period, Generation Opportunity, a youth-focused Koch brothers initiative headed by Feinberg at the time, placed an op-ed by Feinberg in several state newspapers in Florida, Michigan, California, and Wisconsin, discouraging young people from enrolling in federal exchanges under the ACA and calling the law "a total rip-off." Before that, in September 2013, a fearmongering Feinberg op-ed had run in more than six states, pushing a series of debunked ACA myths to encourage young people to "opt out and purchase a non-Obamacare policy on the private market," and calling the Affordable Care Act "a bad deal for young people." [Media Matters, 1/15/14 [9], 9/30/13 [10]]
Feinberg's Generation Opportunity Ran "Creepy Uncle Sam" Ads -- Deemed "Irresponsible And Dangerous" -- To Deter Millennials From ACA Enrollment. In 2013, MSNBC reported on an "anti-Obamacare web ad" produced by Generation Opportunity, which featured a "creepy Uncle Sam" performing a gynecological exam on a young woman. Reporter Irin Carmon described the ad (emphasis added):
A young, blonde white woman is ushered into a doctor's office by a grim-faced black nurse, and then left alone in the doctor's office, feet in stirrups, by a similarly unsmiling doctor. A maniacal Uncle Sam emerges between her legs, wielding forceps. (Or, as the official text puts it, "Creepy Uncle Sam.") The tagline flashes: "Don't let government play doctor."
No, it's not ill-advised pro-choice agitprop - it's a right-wing campaign to get young people to "opt out" of signing up for health insurance under the Affordable Care Act. (In the male version, a Ken-doll like young man curls up for a prostate exam as Uncle Sam wiggles plastic-gloved fingers.) As Yahoo News reported this morning, Generation Opportunity's plan is to hit 20 college campuses and to spend up to $750,000 on the campaign, as "part of a coalition of right-leaning organizations with financial ties to billionaire businessmen and political activists Charles and David Koch." It's the grassroots counterpart to defunding Obamacare in Congress, the battle currently tearing Republicans apart, since part of the Affordable Care Act model is to get young, uninsured people to sign up to offset the new costs, or risk the penalty of a small fine.
"It is hard to tell if this is real or if it's a 'Saturday Night Live' parody about the hypocrisy of extremists who want to be in every exam room in America but don't want to expand access to quality health care," said Eric Ferrero, vice president for communications at Planned Parenthood Federation of America. "These are the same extreme Koch-funded political groups who have tried to pass transvaginal ultrasound laws and other laws allowing politicians to interfere with people's personal medical decisions. These videos are the height of hypocrisy, but more importantly they are irresponsible and dangerous, designed to spread misinformation and discourage people from getting access to high quality, affordable health care." [MSNBC.com, 9/19/13 [11]]
Feinberg's 2012 Congressional Campaign Called For Repeal Of Obamacare, Elimination Of Key Federal Programs, And Abolishment Of Four Federal Agencies. A policy paper released by Feinberg's failed 2012 Pennsylvania congressional campaign called for the elimination of the federal departments of Education, Commerce, Energy, and Housing and Urban Development, as well as 233 federal programs. Among the programs Feinberg proposed cutting back or moving under state control were public housing, rental assistance, the economic development administration, the minority business development agency, public health and emergency preparedness programs, several nutrition programs, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the National Labor Relations Board, and workforce investment funding. Feinberg's plan also called for the "immediate repeal" of Obamacare. [Evan Feinberg For Congress, accessed via PoliticsPA on 2/1/16 [12]]
Feinberg Was Endorsed By Koch-Founded FreedomWorks PAC In Congressional Campaign. According to an archived version of Feinberg's campaign website from his 2012 bid for a Pennsylvania congressional seat, he was endorsed by the Koch-founded FreedomWorks PAC, which cited Feinberg's "deep commitment to fiscal responsibility." [EvanFeinberg.com, archived from 4/14/12, accessed 2/1/16 [13]]
Stand Together Is Also Affiliated With Paul Ryan Sham "Poverty Plan" Supporter Bob Woodson
USA Today: Group Will "Team Up With Bob Woodson," Prominent Conservative And Ryan "Anti-Poverty" Ally. USA Today reported that Stand Together will "team up" with prominent conservative figure Bob Woodson, who has close ties to Speaker Paul Ryan and his right-wing media-fueled "anti-poverty" push (emphasis added):
In one of its first ventures, the group will team up with Bob Woodson, a prominent black conservative who trains grass-roots leaders as president and CEO of the Center for Neighborhood Enterprise. Woodson, an architect of President George W. Bush's faith-based initiatives, has traveled with House Speaker Paul Ryan to poor neighborhoods around the country as Ryan seeks support for a new "battle plan" in the war on poverty.
Woodson said he finds Koch's "philosophy and operating principles ... 100% compatible with the way we help the poor."
"All liberals talk about is protecting a failed safety net. I don't know how having a safety net gets you out of poverty," he said. "What makes Koch unique is that he is the only person with money that has come to us and not dictated to us what we should do but wants to help us build on what we already do." [USA Today, 1/29/16] [1]
Mother Jones: Woodson -- Ryan's "Anti-Poverty Guru -- Thinks "Real Source Of Social Ills" Is "Moral Failings." In a May 2014 profile, Mother Jones reported on the extensive ties between Woodson and Ryan, dating back to when Ryan was 22 years old and worked with conservative former Sen. Jack Kemp (R-NY). Reporter Stephanie Mencimer highlighted Woodson's conservative views on federal poverty alleviation programs and belief in "self-reliance" as a tool to combat poverty in communities of color:
Woodson has been called one of the godfather's (sic) of President George W. Bush's faith-based initiative, which Woodson helped inspire when Bush was still governor of Texas. In the tradition of Booker T. Washington and other champions of African-American self-reliance, Woodson is a conservative who believes in the need for low-income and minority communities to help themselves. He thinks that the real source of social ills like crime, substance abuse, or out-of-wedlock births isn't racism, poverty, or inequality but rather moral failings.
Ryan has been crossing paths with Woodson since he was 22, when they both worked in various capacities with Jack Kemp, the Republican congressman from New York who dubbed himself a "bleeding heart conservative" and who was known for his outreach to minority communities.
Ryan reached out to Woodson in October 2012 as his vice presidential ambitions were imploding. Mitt Romney's infamous "47 percent" comments, denigrating nearly half the country as moochers on the government dole, were dominating the headlines. And those remarks were merely the capstone of a campaign that had experienced a number of cringe-worthy moments surrounding issues of inequality and the poor.
Since late 2012, Woodson has introduced Ryan to grassroots leaders around the country who are running programs that Woodson believes hold the key to solving the problems plaguing America's poor communities. Together, they have toured anti-violence programs in Milwaukee, drug-treatment centers in San Antonio, and foster care placement programs in Somerset, New Jersey.
Woodson believes that traditional, governmental approaches to poverty--such as welfare and federal disability--harm the people they're trying to help. He maintains that's because the government relies on elitists who claim to know what's best for the people they serve. "We must be open to accept a new brand of 'experts' whose authority lies in their effectiveness rather than in professional accreditation or advanced academic degrees," he wrote in his 1998 book, The Triumphs of Joseph (itals).
The concept sounds good in theory, especially to Republicans who are ideologically opposed to entitlement programs and government bureaucracy. [Mother Jones, 5/5/14 [14]]

During his State of the nation address President Cyril Ramaphosa announced that eskom will be unbundled into three entities. To deal with generation, transmission and distribution under Eskom holdings.
The utility will undergo a point of turnaround plan and government will step in to support Eskom's balancesheet, Ramaphosa said.
Ramaphosa says Eskom's could servlet damage the economy and social development ambitions and we need bold actions.
The consequences may be painful but they could even be more devastating if we delay. The Nationa Union of Metal worker's General secretary Irvin Jim has opposed Eskom's split saying "we'll meet in the street".
Jim says breaking up Eskom with one agenda to hand it over to private sector through privatisation is criminal "infect it is a new state capture crystalizing in front of our eyes champion by Ramaphosa it is rejected by NUMSA".
As the split of Eskom into three entities could be the financial relief the entity need it could also mean job loses.
While Trade Union Federation Cosatu said they want commitment by Ramaphosa that the restructuring of Eskom would not results in job loses. DA Mmusi Maimane speaking to the media after the SONA said Ramaphosa had taken a step in the right direction by beginning the break up of Eskom but hasn't gone far.
The President couldn't go further into details but the minister of finance minister Tito Mboweni will explain further during his budget speech on the 20th of February during his budget speech on how the process of Eskom will be conducted.

Our team is very proud of the short backup and restore times NovaStor DataCenter is able to achieve. Marketing and Sales are using words like "multi-streaming" and "multiplexing" to describe the speed of backup and restore, but do you know what exactly they are trying to say?
This article highlights two of the features that are part of the reason for DataCenter's backup and restore speed.
Multi-streaming (often times called multi-threading) is splitting up the data from the source into multiple streams that will be transferred at the same time. For example, if you were to back up a folder with 1TB of data a regular backup job would send the data in a single stream to the backup server. With multi-streaming the 1TB of data is split into several streams with all of the streams being transferred simultaneously. Thus, the backup is much faster.
Another way of multi-streaming data is by backing up several servers at the same time to the same backup storage, for example a disk device. Without an option to multi-stream at the backup device, all servers would send their data one after the other. Allowing multiple servers to send the data at the same time utilizes the network configuration to its maximum and shortens the backup window. Also it makes your backup configuration much less complex as you do not have to schedule the jobs so they do not overlap.
Multiplexing is taking multiple data streams and streaming them to tape in order to utilize the full bandwidth of the tape drive. With a one stream backup job the tape library would idle more than it would actually write data. Most vendors for tape drives agree that the constant stop and write of a single streamed backup job is actually bad and shortens the life time of the tape drive and the tape media. With a multiplexer the tape drive is able to run constantly thus, writing the data faster to tape. The same applies for a restore. Having multiple connections transferring the data back from the backup server enables the user to have their systems up and running again with less downtime.
Due to budget restrictions, IT administrators are not able to replace existing hardware very often. But the amount of user data they need to protect increases exponentially. Sometimes a weekend is not enough to write all the data to disk and/ or to tape for a full backup. Multistreaming and multiplexing won't reduce the amount of data, but a combination of those two features might be able to reduce the time needed to finish those backup jobs.
Backup Client: VM with 2 2.4ghz vCPU, 8GB of ram, Windows 2012 R2, drive with ~11 million small files on it.
Backup Server: Physical machine with 1 quad core 2.6ghz, 16GB of ram, Windows 2012 R2, storage spaces configured deduplicated volume backed with 4 4tb sata drives.
For this comparison the backup jobs are backing up the same folders that have 1,362,948 very small files in them for a total size of approximately 40GB.
Depending on your hardware and network environment you could use up to 32 streams per backup job. Keep in mind that it doesn't make sense to split up the backup in too many streams if your hardware and network environment is not able to handle that many connections.
The results of this test scale out quite well too. In a previous test with ~11 million files a single stream took a little over 24 hours, whereas with 8 streams it did that same backup in 4 hours.
To get a better idea about multistreaming and how NovaStor DataCenter solves that task, feel free to watch the webinar recording on YouTube.

Tracking Disappearing Species
April 4, 2022 April 4, 2022 / Crist Inman
Researchers work through taxonomic keys to determine whether they had just caught a Hills' horseshoe bat in Rwanda's Nyungwe National Park.Photograph by Jon Flanders / Courtesy Bat Conservation International
Disappearing species as a topic in these pages has taken many forms. Hunters of disappearing species, less so. My exposure to this topic is limited to one project that Seth participated in. But the fact that Seth also had experience on a different type of project in Rwanda's Nyungwe National Park made this article particularly of interest. Carolyn Kormann, once again, thank you:
The Hunt for a Lost Bat
The obsessive people who track down disappearing species are their own variety of rare—sparsely found across a wide geographic range, in all sorts of habitats.
In January, 2019, a multinational team of biologists set out into the rain forest of southwestern Rwanda, in search of a near-mythical bat that they thought might be extinct. The Hills' horseshoe bat—agacurama in Kinyarwanda—hadn't been seen in forty years. Scientists had caught and recorded it only twice, in 1964 and 1981, roughly five miles apart, in a forest reserve named Nyungwe. But then conflict and war, culminating with the genocide in 1994, devastated the region. Many of Nyungwe's research and tourist facilities were destroyed. Subsistence agriculture, sometimes undertaken by people fleeing conflict, along with things such as logging and mining, caused the forests surrounding Nyungwe to largely disappear.
Paul Webala, a Kenyan wildlife biologist and one of the expedition members, had started work in 2013 on a monograph of the bats of Rwanda. "Not much was known," he told me. "Records were old" and lacked echolocation data. The Hills' horseshoe bat was the only Rwandan bat species, out of fifty-four found in the country, which the International Union for Conservation of Nature (I.U.C.N.) had listed as critically endangered. Webala wondered whether it was lost simply because no one had gone looking for it. He recruited the help of Julius Nziza, a Rwandan wildlife veterinarian for Gorilla Doctors, to conduct reconnaissance surveys. By then, the government had made Nyungwe Forest a national park; its four hundred square miles had become the largest protected tract of Afromontane rain forest in the Albertine Rift, a hotspot of endemism that stretches from Uganda to Zambia. Many of its animals and plants are found nowhere else on Earth. After more than a year of searching, however, Webala and Nziza started to think that the Hills' horseshoe bat was found nowhere on Earth. During the course of two expeditions, they surveyed ten sites and found eight other bat species, but not Hills'. Was it extinct?
A million species currently face extinction, "many within decades," a landmark biodiversity report, authored by more than three hundred scientists, reported in 2019. The rate of plant and animal extinction is already as much as hundreds of times higher than it has averaged over the past ten million years, and is expected to accelerate. At the same time, "biological communities are becoming more similar to each other," the report's summary said, leading "to losses of local biodiversity, including endemic species, ecosystem functions and nature's contributions to people." Nature, in its increasing homogeneity, is going the way of the American fast-food chain.
To address the catastrophe, delegates from the world's nations recently met in Geneva to renegotiate the Convention on Biological Diversity, an international treaty first enacted in 1993. Progress was notable on the "30×30" initiative—to protect thirty per cent of Earth's land and seas by 2030—which scientific consensus indicates is the absolute minimum needed to help curb global biodiversity loss. A majority of participating countries announced their commitment to the goal. "There has never been this much support for this level of conservation in history," Brian O'Donnell, the director of the Campaign for Nature, told me. But countries will still need to formally adopt the global target—and a new, binding biodiversity framework—at the fifteenth Conference of the Parties, or cop15, now anticipated to start in August, in China. For leaders from the developing world, which will be disproportionately responsible for conserving biodiversity, appropriately ambitious financing commitments from donor countries remain in question. "That will be the biggest obstacle to achieving an ambitious global agreement," O'Donnell said.
Lost-species quests can seem like wild-goose chases, but as Barney Long, the senior director for conservation strategies at the nonprofit organization Re:wild, told me, you can't save what you don't know is there…

One for the griddle or bbq. Peaches and halloumi are grilled then tossed with salad, nuts and green beans to make a fast, easy first course.
Whisk all the dressing ingredients together and season. If the jam is too set to whisk in properly warm it first. Bring a saucepan of salted water to the boil, then drop in the beans and cook for 2-2½ minutes – they should still have a little crunch. Drain well.
Heat a griddle or non-stick frying pan, or a barbecue. Rub the peaches all over with a little of the oil, then griddle for 1-2 minutes on the cut sides until they char and soften. Lift them onto a salad platter as you go.
Slice the cheese into thin shard-like slices – the more jagged edges you create, the more crisp bits you'll end up with. Brush them all over with the remaining oil and griddle or fry like the peaches, until they're golden brown and crisp on the outside. Working quickly, add the cheese to the platter with the peaches, beans, rocket, mint leaves and hazelnuts. Drizzle over the dressing and toss everything together, then serve straight away while the cheese is soft.


Techno (cirse) Video Rec, with my new guitar !!!!
any advice would be very helpful, thanks !
I'm not really qualified to give advice but it sounded fine to me - clean, in time.
I think there's a problem in one of the sections where you pick those single notes, it's seems out of time and I think there's an extra note missing or you changed it into another one. I didn't go check the video so I'm not sure.
Cool!!!!!! It's everything perfect! excepting at 00:25 where you are playing different note values and the riff sounds different to the original. BTW thank you for playing our song and for adding Cirse's myspace in the youtube video info!
I just posted your video on Cirse's Facebook page. Everybody is invited to join!
Thank you, that's my brand new guitar: Gibson Les Paul Studio Faded brown.... and it sounds just amazing !!!!!!
all stars! Great job, man!
Very nicely done. I always love hearing Gabriel's lessons.
Sounds great except for those two notes Gab mentioned. You could possibly play with more attitude to make it even more convincing.

AEROSIL® is helping to drive the energy transition,…
…ensure a clean coat of paint,…
…and keep infants quiet.
In addition, fumed silica puts us on a good footing…
…and a flawlessly printed morning paper.
AEROSIL® is used in animal feed…
…and in chemicals for agricultural use.
It helps to make homes weathertight…
…and make us healthy.
Milestones of Chemistry:
AEROSIL®
Ever since it was discovered more than 70 years ago, the silica AEROSIL® has proved to be an all-rounder—and its success story is by no means over. It all began when the inventor's discovery was rejected.
"It's much too expensive!" Harry Kloepfer's bosses told him when he presented his latest invention to them in 1941. The innovative substance was a pyrogenic (pyrogenic = produced in a flame) or "fumed" silica that could replace carbon black as a filler in tire rubber. Kloepfer had invested four years of his life in this discovery—but now this time seemed wasted.
Fortunately, his supervisors at Degussa reconsidered their decision. As a result, the company began to produce silica under the brand name AEROSIL® in 1944. Kloepfer's original idea of using AEROSIL® as a filler in tires was quickly rejected because it was indeed too expensive. However, the manufacturers soon noticed that silica is a real allrounder.
For example, when AEROSIL® is used as a thickening agent, it ensures that the viscosity of coatings remains flexible. Paint is viscous when it's inside a can. However, stirring makes paint fluid so that it can be applied to surfaces without dripping. Once paint has been spread onto a wall, it quickly becomes firm again. As a result, AEROSIL® prevents the paint from running.
Fumed silica is also an outstanding flow improver. It coats the particles of active substances and thus makes them flow past one another more easily. This prevents spices from sticking together, for example. As a flow improver, AEROSIL® also makes it possible to precisely dose materials in the right amounts.
Flowability of powder
Moreover, silica is used as a thickening agent for rubber and silicone in pacifiers and shoe soles, for example, and it's also employed as an abrasive. No matter what it's used for, the fluffy white powder is inconspicuous but very effective. Instead of taking center stage, this substance helps other materials bring their strengths fully to bear.
This genuine jack-of-all-trades is manufactured at eight production facilities worldwide, from Antwerp in Belgium to Waterford in the USA and Yokkaichi in Japan. In keeping with Harry Kloepfer's inventive spirit, these facilities are still researching this miraculous white substance and coming up with new innovations.
AEROSIL® is produced from compounds such as silicon chloride (SiCl4) by means of flame hydrolysis. The chloride is first vaporized, then mixed with air and hydrogen and forwarded to a combustion chamber. The powdery white silica is created under the flame within a few seconds. The silica is left to cool, and then the solid matter is separated from the associated gases.
Hydrophilic and hydrophobic AEROSIL®
Hydrophilic AEROSIL® is untreated silica and is divided into mixed oxides and silicon dioxide. Hydrophobic AEROSIL®, on the other hand, is created by chemically treating hydrophilic silica with silanes, silazanes or siloxanes. It's called hydrophobic because this silica absorbs very little moisture. As a result, coatings containing hydrophobic AEROSIL® are extremely well protected against moisture and rust.
Harry Kloepfer was born in Berlin in 1887. He studied chemistry at Berlin Technical University, where he earned a doctoral degree in 1922. In 1925 he was hired by Degussa, where he was appointed the Head of Inorganic Research in 1940. At Degussa, Kloepfer investigated a wide variety of organic chemistry topics, focusing in particular on the development of fumed silica. Then in 1944 the company began producing AEROSIL®, which is still one of its most successful products today. In 1950 Kloepfer was granted power of attorney over the main Degussa facility in Frankfurt. Although he retired in 1962, Kloepfer continued to serve Degussa as a consultant for several years. He died in Bad Homburg in 1973.

I'm usually a do-it-yourself traveler, but on my recent cruise to the Eastern Caribbean, I turned the headaches over to someone else – not without having done my due diligence though. I researched everything from accommodations to transfers and then took a look at what the cruise line, Norwegian, had to offer pre-cruise-wise.
During my research, I found amazing bargains on this or that, but with every bargain came a challenge of some sort. I finally convinced myself that the Norwegian sponsored hotels and transfers were the best deal in town, but when I tried to book them, I ran into a snag … but I can't blame it all on Norwegian.
I've mentioned before that I'm a big fan of expedia, but I shopped for the cruise on Vacations To Go. I've found their cruises searches to be the most maneuverable and I trusted them, because I'd booked a cruise with them before. Even though I'm the official researcher for all things vacation, my husband likes to have the last say and he really likes to have it at the last minute. I'd been trying to get his rubber stamp for quite a while, but he wasn't very forthcoming.
"You're not leaving right this minute are you?" (As if I didn't leave every Wednesday at 5:30 PM to scrapbook with Deb.) When I assured him that I was leaving and that we were going to book the cruise, he went into panic mode. I told him to do his research while I was driving and then he could call me with his findings.
I can't tell you how happy it makes Bill to find something cheaper than I do, so you can imagine his glee when he called to inform me Priceline had the cruise cheaper than Vacations to Go. It was not a significant savings in my opinion, but it was worth it to him, so he went ahead and reserved our spots while he was on the phone with the representative. The rubber stamp had finally arrived. I called the Priceline rep and finalized the booking, including the flight and insurance. I must say that the agent was nice and helpful. I got along with her much better than I do the website.
And speaking of websites, let me tell you about the Norwegian website. I'd barely gotten the cruise booked, when I started getting emails from Norwegian. Kudos to them for the way they connect with their passengers. The initial email led me through the sign-up process and then they kept in touch with me regularly until the day I climbed on board. Anyone who cruises on Norwegian should take advantage of their digital front door. There's a wealth of information available and you can check-in from the comfort of your home.
I only have one complaint. I have no problem with them requesting me to sign in whenever I went to the site. My problem was that whenever I clicked on a page outside my personal reservation, they signed me out. I'd wander around until I found something I wanted to book and then I'd have to sign in again, because something I looked at wasn't part of my cruise.
But let's get back to Priceline. I'd gotten all warm and cozy with the Norwegian site and was ready to book our hotel and transfers. One Friday night Deb and I had both had stinky weeks. We decided a bottle of wine with some cruise planning was just what we needed, so she dropped by my house on her way home from work. I called up Norwegian, but because I'd booked the cruise with Priceline, I had to talk to Priceline about land-based arrangements. I felt like the things should have been a little more transparent, but they weren't.
I called up my friends at Priceline and was immediately assisted by someone who was thrilled to hear from me, but she had a very difficult time doing what I wanted. To begin with, her computer would only let me book one room at a time, if we were going to use separate credit cards. Given the chance to do it all over again, I would have begged them to put it all on one card, but initially, I was assured it would be absolutely no hassle. Famous last words.
Here's the thing. Norwegian made me call up Priceline, so Priceline could communicate with Norwegian to book the Norwegian hotel and transfers. Unfortunately, they were having a digital lover's spat and we were left hanging on the phone FOREVER. Let me explain forever. Deb and I polished off the bottle of wine, popped a Kashi pizza in the oven and baked it while we waited.
I have to tell you the agent was the epitome of politeness. She must have been about ready to rip out her hair, but you would have thought her favorite thing to do was hang out on the phone with exasperated customers. Well, we did our best not to be exasperated, but it WAS taking forever. Eventually, she confirmed that my reservation at the Courtyard Marriott on Miami Beach had been made, but that I'd gotten the last room. I confess to being irritated since the call had covered a couple of hours.
The Priceline rep wanted to keep my reservation in place while she tried to work some magic for Deb, but by the next morning, there was no hope. So we had to cancel my reservation and start all over. That wouldn't have been that big a deal if Bill had not walked into the room during our marathon phone call and heard the per person charge for the room and transfers. Of course, he thought he could do better. To make a long story short, it took a few days, but he finally figured out that the Norwegian deal was the best in town. Then it was up to me to call Priceline again and try to book the Holiday Inn version of the package.
This time things went very smoothly. We were very happy with our accommodations at the Holiday Inn and even went to the Courtyard for drinks and dinner. Our transfers were blissfully uneventful. However, Priceline and Norwegian really need to work on their transparency issues. I don't care who gets paid for what, but I shouldn't have to spend an evening hanging on the phone because their computers aren't talking to one another.
Has this sort of thing happened to you? Have you fallen into the crack between the wholesaler and the travel provider? Is the discount worth it? Inquiring minds want to know.

An Alternative Education
Photography by Michael Thad Carter
"I arrived at UT as a homophobic gay male."
That's how Jake Gonzales recalls the start of his freshman year in Austin. Though he knew he was gay, he says he was unable to identify with other gay individuals and didn't feel that he belonged in any group.
But the four years Gonzales spent at UT provided him with far more than a degree – it gave him an education in activism and community organizing and made him not only comfortable with his sexuality, but a champion of LGBT causes.
A big part of that transformation was UT's Gender and Sexuality Center. Opened in 2004, a year after Gonzales' arrival on campus, the center was designed as a safe harbor for women and LGBT students, a place they could congregate and learn, organize and thrive.
Far from a new concept, similar centers serving LGBT students have been on university campuses all over the country for years. But it had taken a group of dedicated students eight years to realize their goal of getting one at UT. Though the university has a long history of gay and lesbian organizations, few had stood the test of time, often suffering from a loss of institutional memory once certain students graduated. The GSC provided that necessary baseline, serving as a portal to organizations and events and connecting people across the immense campus.
For Gonzales, the GSC – which first opened in a small, closet-like space tucked away in the Student Services Building – was a lifesaver.
"There was enough space for three desks and a few book- shelves – not the kind of place that screamed 'come hang out here!'" says Gonzales. "But I remember being really excited to finally have this space after a year of being on campus without it."
He credits director Ana Ixchel Rosal with creating a culture of acceptance, education and support from the very beginning. "She was like having a really good professor to talk to," he says. "She was there for us whatever we needed, always encouraging us."
Through the GSC, Gonzales discovered a love for activism and community organizing. Up until just a few years ago, all of the gay and lesbian groups at UT were social in nature and steered clear of activism. Gonzales was one of several students who started Stand Out, a queer political organization that spoke out on controversial issues such as legalizing gay marriage. "That was my first foray into queer activism," he says.
Would Stand Out have been possible without the existence of the Gender and Sexuality Center? "I think it would have been possible, but not nearly as successful. The center is the hub of queer life on campus and it helps organize students in a way that just wasn't possible before."
Gonzales went on to become public relations director of UT's Queer Students Alliance, an agency of student govern- ment representing the interests of the university's LGBT popu- lation. In the fall of 2006, the alliance released its state of af- fairs report, a watershed document that used survey responses from LGBT students to illustrate the positives and negatives of their campus life. The report included 70 recommendations to the university on ways to make UT a more welcoming place for LGBT individuals.
Gonzales says university President William Powers embraced the report. Since then a number of the recommendations have been adopted, such as adding sexual orientation to the university's non-discrimination policy and providing gen- der-neutral restrooms in new campus facilities.
"What was once an unseen minority is now much more visible," says Gonzales. "Now we have a dialogue, and a more intimate understanding of where people are coming from."
Gonzales graduated from UT with a bachelor's degree in radio, television and film and two minors in business and communication studies. But in reality, he says, his UT education happened largely outside of the classroom. "I spent all of my time doing community organizing," he says. "I tried my best to leave the campus better than I found it."
Today, Gonzales splits his time between the Austin Gay and Lesbian Film Festival, where he serves as programs director, and operating his public relations firm Guess Who? Productions, which focuses on nonprofits and small businesses. He just recently stepped down as chair of the Gender and Sexuality Center's advisory working group, which advises the center's staff, helps set direction and assists with tasks like producing programs and writing grants. But he remains involved in the organization.
Asked what his hope is for today's incoming UT gay freshman, Gonzales takes a moment to reflect before responding. "For many kids it's their first chance to be loved and honored for who they really are," he says. "My hope for that person is that he at least steps through the door of the center. It does us no good to have a center if that person doesn't walk in the door. I would tell him he doesn't have to be a hardcore student activist to be involved. There are movie nights, potlucks – many low stakes, high emotional return activities that happen. You just have to open yourself up to it.
"I learned a lot as a student at UT," Gonzales adds. "Would I have learned as much without the GSC there for support? Probably not. I really don't want to imagine my life at UT without the GSC."

The skin on my grandmother's hands was paper thin. It's what I remember most about her. She also had piercing brown eyes and a way of clamping her lips together that signaled her disapproval. She wasn't a warm and affectionate sort of grandmother. Not at all. She was more of a "my way or the highway" sort of grandmother who served soft-boiled eggs to her two young granddaughters. When my sister and I protested that we didn't like runny eggs, she sternly informed us that "this is the way I make them." Pursed lips, hands on hips, those intense brown eyes. Oh, I can still remember sitting at her table and staring at those liquid yolks, trying not to gag and wanting to cry.
My grandmother talked about her hands every time we saw her, which wasn't that often, since she lived in Detroit and we lived in California. My mother wasn't that excited to have her mother and brother visit us, and I didn't blame her. My grandmother did not hide her feelings about the things she didn't like: my mother's hair color (dyed red), the fact that we lived so far away, her grown son's attempts at independence (even though he never married and lived with her until the day she died). I heard her say one time that if she had it to do over again, she wouldn't have had children—and she said this in front of her son, her daughter, and her two grandchildren.
About her hands, though. If I remember correctly, she blamed my mother somehow for what happened to them. Something about a treatment for an ailment my mother had as an infant, involving a substance that burned and damaged her skin. No one ever challenged her story, just like no one challenged her version of how she arrived in America when she was pregnant with my mother, even though the timeline she laid out would've meant an eleven month pregnancy. It was easier to gloss over certain questionable explanations than to run the risk of the harsh stare from those eyes, and the look of disapproval she wore all the time—like the apron she wore every day over her housedress.
When my grandmother heard I was planning to get married to the young man I had been dating for four and a half years, she expressed her feelings about the fact I was marrying outside my religion. With a resigned sigh, she shrugged and said: "Well, we're all God's children." Not a ringing endorsement for my choice of a husband, but it was a close to a positive reaction as we were going to get from her.
A few years after I got married, my grandmother and my uncle came to visit the family in California. This time, they stopped by to see me and my husband in the little one-bedroom apartment we were renting. At one point she wandered off into our tiny kitchen and came back to announce that "They leave the butter out!" I guess she had quietly peeked in our cupboards and wanted to inform the family about our unorthodox butter-storing habits. My husband was appalled, but I wasn't surprised. Respect for boundaries was not my grandmother's strong suit.
Several years later, she came west again. By then we had two young children and had moved into a house. I'm not sure whether she made another cupboard inspection, but when I asked her how she liked the place, she shrugged and offered this candid observation: "It's not the Taj Mahal." This was true, of course, but perhaps it didn't need to be pointed out to us in so many words.
During this visit, my grandmother also gave me some unsolicited advice about weaning my baby, suggesting there was something I could do to make him "stop doing that." Why would I want to do that, I asked. Again, she shrugged. The answer was obvious—to her, anyway. Children are kind of a nuisance, and one should not be at their beck and call, even when they're babies.
I wish I knew the real story of what happened to my grandmother's hands. As a young child, I was fascinated by how transparent her skin was, all the blue veins clearly visible just below the surface. The injury caused her pain her entire life, and she didn't suffer in silence about it.
My grandmother was a master of the guilt trip. I remember how she brought my mother to tears over the phone many times. As I got older, I didn't blame my mother for avoiding those phone calls, and assigning my father the role of correspondent. My sister and I were also pressed into service, writing letters so our grandmother wouldn't be "sick with worry" when she hadn't heard from us.
As grandmothers go, I think I got short-changed. My husband loved his Nana. She was a warm, affectionate woman who delighted in spoiling her first grandchild. I never met her, but I've heard stories about what a lovely person she was. My grandmother, on the other hand, wasn't cut out for the role. Although she always told us she loved us and sang "I Love You, A Bushel and a Peck" every time we saw her, it seemed rote and somehow manipulative. Her hugs carried with them a sense of obligation.
Over the years, I tried to figure out why my grandmother was so bitter. I did find out a few facts that may have had something to do with her attitude. She had grown up in a relatively well-to-do family in Poland, but they lost everything "to the Cossacks." She married an educated man who became a house painter in America when his credentials as a bookkeeper weren't recognized here. I don't know whether she had any dreams or aspirations for herself. She never talked about them. She had two children and the paper-thin skin on the backs of her hands to show for her troubles. My grandfather seemed like a patient, caring man. I don't remember too much about him, since he died when I was eight years old. But I can only imagine his struggle to temper his wife's disappointments while providing for his family in reduced circumstances in his adopted country. There isn't anyone left to ask anymore, so I'll never really know the true story. My mother was surprisingly loyal, and never complained about being raised by a distant, unaffectionate mother. I know that she struggled with motherhood and was unable to break the chain of behavior she'd grown up with.
I'm a grandmother myself now. I've given a lot of thought to the way I act around my young grandchildren. Do I spoil them? Maybe just a little bit. But I like to have fun with them, I love to make them laugh, and we've created some happy memories already. If I'm still around when they grow up and get married, I will not go through their cupboards and comment on their housekeeping. I'm trying to be a good sport. So far, so good.
And here's another thing: I know they like their eggs scrambled, and that's how I fix them.
Oh Risa, what a tale of disappointment and disapproval. My own mother was difficult, but not quite like your grandmother. However, in a similar way, I too, have tried to learn how NOT to behave and tried to be loving and kind with my own children. Sometimes, even the most trying circumstances can yield positive results I guess.
She was, as we say, a piece of work. So sad she never seemed to enjoy life. Thanks for your comment, Betsy.
Oh Risa, I have So Been There. I sympathize fully, and appreciate the detail in which you've dredged up your memories, if only as a cautionary tale. I salute you for vowing to be a different kind of grandmother to your grandkids.

Khloe Kardashian And Scott Disick Reportedly Wanted To Continue KUTWK For 'Easy' Pay Check
Before Keeping Up With The Kardashians was officially canceled by E!, members of the Kar-Jenner clan were divided on whether it should continue or not. Page Six claims there were two camps regarding the future of the reality series.
Kim, Kanye, Kendall, and Kylie, were among the family members who wanted to no longer continue with it, whereas Khloe Kardashian and Scott Disick wanted to keep it going.
The source claims that Scott and Khloe want to see the show go on because they like the easy money. Sources also say that some members of the family need the cash more than others, with Kylie, Kendall, Kim, and Kanye, obviously not being one of them.
Sources claim Kylie, Kendall, and Kim realized it was time for the show to be canceled because they have more lucrative endeavors elsewhere. Fans of the family know Kylie just sold her company, Kylie Cosmetics, for almost a billion dollars.
Kim also has her successful makeup and beauty line which sells millions per year. Kanye reportedly wanted to see his wife leave the series as well so she can focus on other more important things in her career.
Hi my loves!!!! Season 19 premieres Sept 17 on E! #KUWTK
A post shared by Khloé (@khloekardashian) on Sep 15, 2020 at 9:33am PDT
As most know, Khloe and Scott's clothing lines, Good American and Talentless, are very small companies in comparison to KKW, Kylie Cosmetics, and Kanye's Yeezy brand. Put simply, Scott and Khloe were eager to continue with the show because of this financial fact.
It's not clear whether Rob Kardashian wanted to end the show prematurely, and the state of his sock company isn't certain either.
More importantly, the family reportedly has started to realize that cable TV programming is in serious trouble as streaming platforms increase in popularity. During the recent financial and global crisis, it's clear that some of the bigger tech companies are better adapted to trying times.
An insider claimed the pandemic was one of the key reasons why the family chose to end it. "People want to move on," the source added, noting how the budget has decreased as well. It's also been reported that the Kar-Jenner clan might get a streaming deal sometime soon.

The Application of the Statute Law of Singapore within its Private Internatinal Law
December 24, 2006 /in /by Martin George
A note written By Adrian Briggs (Univeristy of Oxford) has been made available for download on the SSRN network: "A Note on the Application of the Statute Law of Singapore within Its Private International Law" Singapore Journal of Legal Studies, pp. 189-203, 2005. The abstract reads:
The purpose of this Note is to raise a question on which the rules of private international law of the common law, including Singapore, are less satisfactory than they should be. It is written in the light of one part of a seminar conducted at the Singapore Academy of Law in April 2005, but the proximate cause of the investigation was an enquiry as to the application of certain aspects of Singapore's statutory employment law in cases in which the factual and legal context contains points of contact to countries outside Singapore, or to laws other than the law of Singapore. It is presented in the form of a Note because its aim is to raise the issue as one for thought and further analysis, rather than pretending to give answers which are, in the writer's opinion, fixed and final. In the current state of the law's development it is not possible to claim any more for any individual analysis.
