The man found dead in Long Island Sound just off Norwalk Harbor Sunday morning has been identified as a homeless man who lived under a bridge in the city.
John Carl Fink, 58, is believed to have drowned and no foul play is suspected, said police.
Police believe he was washed out to the sound during the heavy rainstorm Saturday afternoon. On Monday, friends of Fink went to his camp under the Cross Street bridge and found much of his personal items and furniture had been washed down the river.


PS4. First time I've played in at least a month so there may be something I'm forgetting. There must be.
In Formula A, 100% race at Dubai. Go into pits on lap 4, choose and edit my strategy, press save. The pitstop goes a lot quicker than the estimated time said it would, and when I leave the garage, the "fuel left" gauge on screen is on the same amount that it was before I pitted. It remains that way when I exit the pitlane. So I haven't been refueled.
I restarted and this time, I chose the Call To Pits option, to see if that would make any difference. It didn't.
Refueling is not allowed in the Formula A series.
It follows the same rules as real life Formula 1, in which refueling is not allowed. The real reason for this is safety (reduces the chance of fires in the pitlane) and costs (you don't have to lug expensive refueling hoses around the world).
l think they should decide whether they want to follow the real F1 regulations or not.
Because when it comes to DRS - which can be used anywhere in Project Cars - the FA class suddenly doesnt follow F1 regulations anymore, and is a 'free interpretation' of the developers. Right.
It's a fictional series with a fictional car. So it's following the rules the devs put in it.
Thats actually good info after almost 4 months, thanks!

Q: Primes of form $\frac {(4^m+1)}{5}$ What is known about primes of the form
$$p=\frac{4^m+1}{5}$$
where m is an odd positive integer? Is $13$ the only such prime?

A: EDDDDIITTTT: note $$ x^4 + 4 y^4 = (x^2 - 2 x y + 2 y^2) (x^2 + 2 x y + 2 y^2)  $$ which is what I noticed. Among other things, this is the statement that the fourth roots of $-4$ are $1+i, 1-i, -1+i, -1-i.$ The particular case where $y$ is a power of $2$ and $x=1$ is attributed to Aurifeuille, a name that refers to a person rather than a country. However, I maintain that it's a good name for a country. Well, Aurifeuillia is a good name for a country.
ORIGINAL: Yes.
Take odd $m=2n+1.$ Then
$$ p = \left( 1 + 4 \cdot (2^n)^4  \right)/5,   $$
$$ p = (1 - 2^{n+1} + 2^{2n+1}) (1 + 2^{n+1} + 2^{2n+1}) / 5.    $$
For $n \geq 2$ both factors are larger than $5.$
Note that all prime factors $q$ of $p$ must satisfy $q \equiv 1 \pmod 4.$ Indeed, if $r$ is prime and $r \equiv 3 \pmod 4,$ and finally $x^2 + y^2 \equiv 0 \pmod r,$ then $x,y \equiv 0 \pmod r$ and $x^2 + y^2 \equiv 0 \pmod {r^2}.$ In our case we have this $y=1$ so no such $r$ can be a factor.

Thursday Round-Up: Former Seahawks Lofa Tatupu, Dan Saleaumua Selected To Polynesian Football Hall of Fame Class of 2019
Former Seahawks linebacker Lofa Tatupu and defensive tackle Dan Saleaumua are among four individuals selected to the Polynesian Football Hall of Fame Class of 2019.
Good afternoon, 12s.
Here's a look at what's 'out there' for today - Thursday, October 25 - about your Seattle Seahawks:
Tatupu, Saleaumua Honored
Seahawks Legends Lofa Tatupu and Dan Saleaumua were unveiled as members of the Polynesian Football Hall of Fame Class of 2019 on Wednesday, part of a four-person class selected from a list of 12 finalists.
Tatupu spent all six of his NFL seasons with the Seahawks, recording 549 tackles, 8.5 sacks, 35 passes defensed, 10 interceptions, and two touchdowns in 84 games played from 2005-2010. The linebacker joined Seattle as a second-round draft pick out of USC, where he played for current Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll, and went on to earn three trips to the Pro Bowl with Seattle, as well as one first-team All-Pro selection.
Saleaumua spent two of his 12 years in the NFL with the Seahawks. While with the Kansas City Chiefs, the defensive tackle was an All-Pro selection in 1990 and Pro Bowl selection in 1995, and he holds the Chiefs' record for fumble recoveries (18).
Interestingly, all four members of this year's class have ties to the Pacific Northwest. On top of the former Seahawks Tatupu and Saleaumua, Marques Tuiasosopo and Joe Salave'a were selected from among the 12 finalists. Tuiasosopo played quarterback at the University of Washington, earning Rose Bowl MVP and Pac-10 Player of the Year honors while leading the Huskies to an 11-1 record in 2000. Salave'a, meanwhile, made the jump into coaching following his 8-year NFL career, joining the Oregon Ducks as associate head coach and defensive line coach in 2017 after spending the previous five seasons in a similar role for the Washington State Cougars.
"On behalf of our Board of Directors, we congratulate the Class of 2019," said Jesse Sapolu, Polynesian Football Hall of Fame Chairman, Co-Founder and Inductee. "Their accomplishments on and off the field make each of them truly worthy of this recognition."
The Class of 2019 will be honored during the Polynesian Football Hall of Fame Enshrinement Weekend and during the Polynesian Bowl on January 18 & 19, 2019.

Public versus private land use
controls in England and the USA
Emily Walsh
School of Civil Engineering and Surveying, Portsmouth University,
Purpose –This paper aims to compare the law with regard to private property rights and restrictions and
public controls in England and the USA, and the theoretical debates that surround them, to understand
whether the private land use controls of nuisance and restrictive covenants could have a greater role to play or
the public law system of planning is the best way to manage land.
Design/methodology/approach –This paper starts by summarising and comparing, rstly, the private
laws of nuisance and restrictive covenants and then laws relating public planning, zoning and takings in
England and the USA. It then reviews theoretical approaches taken in both jurisdictions to land use
Findings –The paper concludes that private land use restrictions can only play a limited role in land
management in England. Scarcity and cost of available housing necessitate a mechanism by which the state
can intervene to remove or modify restrictions to enable alteration and development. The structure of freehold
ownership in England and the low take-up of Commonhold as an alternative tenure mean that expansion in the
use of private land use restrictions to control the use of land is unfeasible.
Originality/value –The value of this paper is that it seeks to provide insight into the contested
relationship between private and public law and the relationship between property law and planning.
Keywords USA, England, Planning, Zoning, Eminent domain, Restrictive covenants
Paper type Viewpoint
While carrying out a thematic analysis of responses to the Law Commission's (2008)
consultation on easements, covenants and prots a
`prendre in England and Wales, the writer
became aware that some members of the public were extremely anxious to protect private
land use restrictions in the form of restrictive covenants. They did not want the law to change
in such a way that restrictive covenants became time-limited, or in any way easier to remove
from the land register. The general feeling among this group was that restrictive covenants
served to temper the greed of developers, protect against the corruption of the planning
system and, ultimately, to preserve heritage and open spaces. This led the writer to consider
the relationship between private and public law in controlling the use and distribution of
There has been considerable academic debate regarding the extent to which land use
should be governed by private property rights and restrictions or public controls. Much of
this discussion has centred on the law in the USA. The writer, therefore, decided to carry out
a comparison of the law and theory relating to public and private land use controls in
England and the USA to see whether the USA could provide a useful insight into the
relationship between public and private law use restrictions in England.
Part I of this article compares the private land use mechanisms of nuisance and restrictive
covenants in England and the USA. Part II examines the public law controls exerted by
planning and zoning, and compulsory purchase and eminent domain. Part III considers the
debate on both sides of the Atlantic regarding the extent to which the state should be

#BlackLivesMatter: Why we can't wait
Acting in Faith | By Dominque Stevenson, Apr 24, 2015
Baltimore #BlackLivesMatter protest by Dorret
Photo: Dorret via Flickr / Dorret via Flickr
Ending mass incarceration
Note: Dominque Stevenson, director of AFSC's Friend of a Friend program in Baltimore, and many other AFSC staff around the country have been very much involved in the #BlackLivesMatter movement since the killing of Michael Brown. Dominque and Eddie Conway were interviewed by Democracy Now on Thursday, April 23rd (see below) regarding the recent protests in Baltimore in response to the killing of Freddie Gray. Here, Dominque reflects on the movement and why none of us can wait to take decisive action to interrupt the cycles of violence enacted on black men, women, and children in this country every day. - Lucy
The shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, on August 9, 2014, catalyzed a renewed level of youth activism on the issue of police brutality.
It was, for many, the proverbial straw that broke the camel's back as young people in Ferguson organized demonstrations and protests that resonated around the world. Their demands for justice spread like a prairie fire, igniting #BlackLivesMatter and many other groups to begin organizing across the United States.
Some will say that similar moments have come and gone before. However, if we look with a more critical eye, we might find that missing from these earlier moments was the recognition and support of individuals and organizations with resources, and an unwillingness on their part to accept new leadership.
We are now on the cusp of a movement that should be nurtured and supported by all who work for justice and peace. Because police abuse and brutality are very real and sometimes very visible offenses. It's a fact that can be seen by riding through some of our nation's poorest communities.
Take the videotaped shooting of Walter Scott in Charleston, South Carolina, on April 4, 2015, the 47th anniversary of Martin Luther King, Jr.'s assassination. Given the frequency of police shootings, this event salted wounds that had never healed.
In the report, Operation Ghetto Storm, The Malcolm X Grassroots Movement found that a black man, woman, or child is killed every twenty-eight hours by a police officer, security guard, or vigilante. Their study included police reports and other available data on these shootings.
A recent ACLU report on police shootings found that in Maryland, African Americans make up 29 percent of the state's population yet comprise 69 percent of the 109 people who died at the hands of police in 2014.
In addition to these killings, black people face other forms of oppression such as mass incarceration. Often there is a direct link between police brutality and incarceration. Many prisoners in Maryland report that they have experienced physical abuse, including the use of stun guns, during their arrest.
While we lift up the murder by police of African American men, we cannot overlook the fact that this issue touches every segment of the black community. Women, children, and LGTBQ are all vulnerable to police brutality.
What makes African Americans potential victims is the invisibility of so many to the larger society. Up until the time of his death, Freddie Gray was an anonymous young man living in the Sandtown-Winchester neighborhood of West Baltimore.
I did not know him, but I know many young men like him, and I know the difficulty of their lives and the struggle to survive a neighborhood that time and society has forgotten.
Since the protests have begun here in Baltimore, I have been contemplating a question. Do we love these young black men in life, or value them more in death because they have become symbols of oppression and suffering?
One of the best ways to honor Freddie Gray and the many victims of police brutality and murder, is to care about the hundreds of Freddie Grays that live among us now. We must work to end police brutality, but we must also remove the veil of invisibility that allows conditions of inequity and oppression to exist for so many.
It is time to stand with the new crop of activists. Many of them are the very people who will be the victims of police brutality and shootings.
All of us need to listen with open hearts and minds, and respond with support that reflects the guidance of the grassroots.
Justice is not an abstract concept. Justice is a living #FreddieGray. Justice is a smiling #RekiaBoyd. Justice is no more death.
— deray mckesson (@deray) April 23, 2015
Many strategies have been initiated and suggested by groups around the country. Community control of the police is perhaps the most widely discussed possibility. This could be supported through a mass movement or a "bloc" of residents in different cities pushing city council resolutions.
Boycotts also have been effective when used strategically, and demonstrations that focus on a specific entity or individual have proven useful.
AFSC has a history of standing with marginalized groups and working on unpopular issues. We will use our resources to convene people to ascertain how they can best support this movement. We invite other groups with resources to do the same.
Now is the time to renew the spirit of our activism. Now is the time to stand with those who have had to remind the world that #BlackLivesMatter.
(Note: AFSC South Regional Director Kamau Franklin contributed to this piece. He has been a dedicated community activist for over twenty years, first in New York City and now based in the south.)

Me: Do you think it wants to go on vacation?
Kid: Yeah, but if my head goes on vacation it would take mine eyes and then I couldn't see!
Me: Oh. Well… there is that, I guess.
Methinks it's bedtime. LOL Night y'all!


Greetings! Can you relate to this bumper sticker?
On with the news, and we have some good news to report. Recently received word that Larry '57 Bland will have a building named after him at Florida State University, on the Panama City campus. A building! High fives to Larry and family.
I meant to tell you in last night's E-mail that the old high school in Blair was renovated into apartments about 7 or 8 years ago, not by a large company, but a small-time contractor. He did such a superior job that these apartments are the most sought-after ones in town. Everyone was thrilled that the old school wasn't torn down and so sentimental while touring the finished product. It really was one of the neatest things to ever happen to Blair. I wish that old LHS has the same good fortune. It would be a big boost to Lexington.
I could probably go on for several hours just writing my thoughts on reading some of the things that people have written. Just a couple of things...I guess I was sheltered or something...I never knew we had so many "houses of ill repute" in Lexington. I guess those of us in the "south side" of Lexington just didn't know what went on on the other side of town.
I was pleasantly surprised a few days ago when I walked past the McGrew house at 20th & South and the wonderful fountain in the back yard was running. I don't remember ever seeing it working before, and I think it has been there for many years. I think it was there when I walked that way to Arnold School. It has been repainted and it is truly a work of art and when it is working, it is really something to see. Now if the person in Helen Shouse's house across the street would put goldfish back in the pond in the back yard, It would be really great. The Shouse back yard always held my attention as I walked past. It was very pretty. It is so great to have so much restoration going on in Lexington, along with the work that has already been done on many houses and buildings in town.
Whoever was commenting on the "good English" in the Lexington schools forgot to mention Miss Lena Meierer or maybe she had retired from the High School before they got there. You learned from her! We had good teachers in our schools...if we had just been a little more ready to learn what they were trying to teach us. I'll correct that and say that if I had just been more ready to learn! I'm sure some of the students were ready.
Had a delightful day in ye old hometown today! (Ed-Friday, 8/24) Some of you may have known one of the more "colorful" older citizens, my second cousin, Edwin P. ("Buster") Gueguen, who was my Dad's first cousin and the best man at their wedding almost 70 years ago; he was 91 when he died in May and his auction is tomorrow.
We went down today to preview things in the auction barn and it was a nostalgic visit for sure. He was very generous with the few relatives he had left, but he had quite a few antiques in his home too, so Loretta and I are going back tomorrow to "watch the crowd," so to speak. I'd love to find some of the old clothes he used to dress up in on Halloween. He was hilarious!! Had his picture in the paper even!
Also hit Maid-Rite for a tenderloin, Hardees for fresh scooped ice cream, and viewed some old pictures there. Did you all know about those old pictures in Hardees?? EVEN a picture of the old Mainstreet Theatre and SNAPPY SERVICE! If it just would have had Alda Holman behind the counter, it would have been perfect.
Anyway, I didn't know how long they had been up and wanted to pass the word. DO take a look the next time you are there. And Susan, why not publish the dates of the upcoming homes tour, if there is one, or other dates of concern in the fall.
Be glad to: The Vintage Homes Tour (tickets $9 in advance, $10 day of tour) is Saturday & Sunday, September 15 and 16. Hours are 10 a.m. - 4 p.m. both days. Send me a note if you need more information. Y'all come!!!


Warren Buffett has given another insight into the thinking that has made him one of the most successful investors ever.
In a BBC interview, the Sage of Omaha criticised the huge rewards enjoyed by those in the financial industry and called for a more "progressive" taxation system. The second-richest man in the world also sympathised with those who are furious with the bankers who helped to create the financial crisis.
The interview shows that the 79-year old has lost none of his charm. Buffett jokes that in another life he would probably have been devoured by a wild animal. He also defended his use of a private jet, the definitive symbol of corporate excess, on the grounds it made his life easier - even though it did undermine his "Huckleberry Finn" image.

So. Elliott Smith went and put a steak knife through his chest this week.

"So. Elliott Smith went and put a steak knife through his chest this week. That's what happened. One minute we had a world with Elliott Smith in it and the next we didn't.
When I first heard it I felt sick and frightened, and I was a little confused by my feelings. Usually when rock stars die I feel maybe a little sad, but that's about it. Sometimes I grab hold of the "how is this worse than thousands dying in some country I've never heard of, as is doubtless happening even as we speak?" ring and hang onto that for a while; sometimes, as when brain cancer claimed Chuck Schuldiner, I get a little emotional about it. But usually I am more moved by such two-line items as one sees in the local paper from time to time, the ones about some anonymous fellow who stood in the path of an oncoming train, or whose car flipped into the ditch during a snowstorm, killing all its passengers instantly.
I didn't know him personally, unless our paths crossed
May 1, 2017 August 10, 2017 | elliottsmithgallery
"I didn't know him personally, unless our paths crossed when I was in Portland in the mid-eighties, which I don't think they did. We played on a bill together in either '97 or '99 I think but we didn't hang out. So I'm not really qualified to give any estimation of him as a person. As a musician he's a spectacular guitarist and one of the best songwriters of his generation, and also he's sort of the player from our indie minor leagues who got called up to the big show and instead of fizzling like so many before him, shone. His major label albums not only weren't disappointments, they were triumphs, and they were kind of…validating, maybe? to people who were writing songs that might have seemed too dark or introspective or bookish for the mainstream. His success suggested that the world had changed a little – not seismically, just a little, but in an interesting way. His death was very hard for me. I have a special fondness for Heatmiser's Mic City Sons, especially the opening track."


Home APPS Why Is Zuckerberg Planning To Integrate Facebook With Whatsapp, Instagram?
Why Is Zuckerberg Planning To Integrate Facebook With Whatsapp, Instagram?
Tired of switching Apps? Well, Facebook may solve your problem. Mark Zuckerberg, Chief Executive, Facebook Inc is planning to unify the underlying messaging infrastructure of the WhatsApp, Instagram and Facebook Messenger services, the New York Times reported on Friday. This enables you to message across all services.
As per the reports, The individual services would still remain as standalone apps. Facebook will create a new way for the users to communicate across the Apps. The users, with a Whatsapp Account, would only be able to send encrypted messages to someone.
What Is The Reason Behind Facebook Merger With Whatsapp, Instagram?
The company has faced a slow down due to mounting privacy issues, fake news, and other political scandals. This integration might keep the users within the company's ecosystem and reduce the number of people moving to other services offered.
Further, Facebook wants to build the best messaging experience. It believes that homogenizing will make messaging faster, simple, reliable, and private.
"We're working on making more of our messaging products end-to-end encrypted and considering ways to make it easier to reach friends and family across networks", informed in the Reports.
Will, It Put Your Privacy At Risk?
The homogenization of Apps sounds interesting and it will save time too. But How will it work? I mean what will happen if an Instagram user messages a WhatsApp user? For now, Whatsapp users can assume that all of their chats are end-to-end encrypted. But How it will let users know whether their chats are encrypted once they start using Facebook's newly homogenized platform. It's unclear what sort of defaults Facebook will impose and take on the above challenges, without compromising the users' privacy and security.

Biografia

Dal 1906 al 1940
Federigo Valli nacque in una ricca famiglia di imprenditori romagnoli. Il padre, Giacomo (1873-1934), era un ricco industriale del vino e un pioniere dell'aeronautica civile italiana: aveva partecipato tre volte alla "Coppa Baracca" (1920-21-22). La madre era Giorgina Monti, ravennate (1883-1924). Federico ereditò dal padre la passione del volo ed anche la sua passione politica: acceso repubblicano, fu capofila del partito a Lugo.

Il 4 settembre 1920 assistette alla rappresentazione dell'opera futurista di Francesco Balilla Pratella Aviatore Dro, messa in scena al Teatro Rossini. Balilla Pratella era lughese come Valli e la sua casa si trovava di fronte alla villa di famiglia di Federico. Il dinamismo dell'arte futurista esercitò un notevole fascino sul giovane Valli.

Dopo gli studi liceali (svoltisi non a Lugo) s'iscrisse all'Università di Bologna. Qui conobbe Leo Longanesi. I due fondarono insieme la rivista goliardica e satirica «Il Dominio». Valli si laureò in una disciplina umanistica. All'università frequentò il Gruppo Universitario Fascista (GUF), arrivando a ricoprire il ruolo di segretario cittadino dell'organizzazione.

Alla fine degli anni venti divenne collaboratore del «Corriere della Sera». Nel 1932 ottenne la direzione del periodico milanese «L'Ala d'Italia» e decise di trasferirsi nel capoluogo lombardo. Nel 1934 tornò in Romagna per sposare, a Ravenna, Maria Luisa Matteucci, coetanea, conosciuta durante gli anni universitari. La moglie lo seguì poi a Milano. Dal matrimonio nacquero due figli, Piero e Alice.

Attorno al 1935 Federico Valli si trasferì da Milano a Roma. Mantenne la direzione dell'«Ala d'Italia» e collaborò a vari periodici romani, scrivendo su temi legati all'aviazione. Divenne presidente della Federazione Nazionale del Libro e fu membro del Consiglio delle Corporazioni. Non rinunciò all'attività sportiva: nel 1935 gareggiò al Raduno internazionale aereo del Littorio; nello stesso anno partecipò all'Avio Raduno del Littorio (ripeté l'esperienza nel 1937 e nel 1938).

Entusiasta delle imprese militari del regime fascista, si arruolò volontario nella guerra d'Etiopia, combattendo dal 1935 al 1936 come sottotenente dell'Aviazione. Nell'aprile 1936 venne ferito a una gamba durante un combattimento aereo. Fu rimpatriato il mese successivo e venne insignito della medaglia d'argento al valor militare.

Tornato al mondo dell'editoria, nel 1937 divenne direttore generale della costituenda «Editoriale Aeronautica», casa editrice vicina al regime che pubblicava una decina di riviste aeronautiche. Organizzò le riprese di un documentario (Los novios de la muerte) sui combattimenti aerei nella guerra di Spagna e curò la pubblicazione dell'antologia Il volo in Italia (1939). Assunse anche il titolo di Segretario dell'Associazione mondiale della stampa aeronautica.

Gli anni quaranta: "Documento"

Dopo aver lasciato nel 1939 la direzione della rivista «L'Ala d'Italia», nel 1940 Federico Valli decise di fondare una rivista propria. Nacque così il mensile «Documento. Periodico di attualità politica letteraria e artistica». Il primo numero uscì a Roma nel gennaio 1941. Collaborarono alla rivista nomi importanti della letteratura italiana come Corrado Alvaro, Anna Banti, Maria Bellonci, Vitaliano Brancati, Tommaso Landolfi, Curzio Malaparte, Anna Maria Ortese, Alberto Savinio. In ultimo ma non per ultimo: Alberto Moravia, che apparve con lo pseudonimo di Tobia Merlo e Pseudo, autore di 13 racconti e saggi. Ma non ci furono solo letterati: apparvero anche le firme dei pittori Carlo Carrà e Giorgio De Chirico. Valli era sia direttore che presidente della società editrice.

Parallelamente a «Documento» Valli fu editore di libri con l'«Anonima Documento Editrice». Tra il 1941 e il 1943 pubblicò una collana di saggi monografici su artisti contemporanei. La caduta del fascismo (25 luglio 1943) interruppe entrambe le attività. L'ultimo numero di «Documento» uscì in giugno; complessivamente furono pubblicati 25 numeri.

L'attività di Valli riprese nei mesi difficilissimi di fine 1943. In ottobre aprì una bottega d'arte e di libri nel centro di Roma. Si chiamò «La Margherita». Sua collaboratrice fu la giovane Maria Vittoria Rossi (non ancora Irene Brin), all'inizio della sua carriera giornalistica. Si vendevano oggetti usati di valore, quadri e libri. Il negozio fu frequentato da Luchino Visconti, Massimo Girotti, Alberto Savinio e Renato Guttuso, sempre a caccia di novità.
Contemporaneamente Valli fondò la «Documento Libraio Editore» con la quale pubblicò volumi destinati a una notevole fortuna letteraria, come La filosofia dell'arredamento di Mario Praz e Il vecchio con gli stivali di Vitaliano Brancati. Valli inoltre pubblicò cinque opere di Moravia: (L'epidemia, Due cortigiane e Serata di Don Giovanni, La cetonia, il celebre Agostino e il saggio La speranza ossia cristianesimo e comunismo). La frequentazione dei coniugi Valli con Moravia e la moglie Elsa Morante fu assidua, il che fa pensare all'instaurazione di un rapporto di amicizia tra le due coppie (lo dimostra il carteggio tra lo stesso Moravia e la Morante nel periodo intercorso dal 1944 ai primi anni Cinquanta).

Dal dopoguerra alla morte
Gli anni del dopoguerra furono molto difficili per Valli. Sembrò non trovare posto nella nuova Italia uscita dalla guerra. Le sue fortune economiche si deteriorarono in pochi anni.
Nel 1946 pubblicò il suo ultimo libro: Primo amore scritto dalla moglie, che si firmò con lo pseudonimo Elisa Mago.
Abbandonata la carriera di editore, tentò quella di produttore cinematografico: alla fine degli anni cinquanta fondò una casa di produzione di spot pubblicitari e documentari, la «Produttori Associati per la Rai Tv». Nel 1960 produsse il documentario L'Italia non è un paese povero; nel 1961 Torino nei cent'anni (con la regia di Roberto Rossellini). Chiusa l'esperienza della «Produttori Associati», negli anni sessanta Valli collaborò alla «Fulcofilm S.p.A.»; inoltre alcuni registi (tra cui Federico Fellini) lo vollero nei propri film.

Nel 1969 Pietro Nenni, romagnolo di Faenza e ministro degli Esteri del Governo Rumor I, lo nominò console d'Italia nella città australiana di Brisbane. Valli si trasferì nella nuova residenza e vi trascorse con la moglie gli ultimi anni della sua vita.

Morì a Brisbane il 2 settembre 1971, dopo una rapida e grave malattia.
Oggi è sepolto nella tomba di famiglia a Lugo.

Charismatic leaders use their personal charm to get things done. This can be an extremely powerful way to lead others. In fact, such strong influence can be achieved over followers that these leaders can make certain individuals accomplish some pretty extraordinary tasks.
Charismatic leaders have the ability to sense the gap that exists between what an organization is delivering to its followers, and what the followers need from an organization. This allows the leader to create a vision of a future state that everyone believes will be better than today's environment.
The charismatic leader often articulates this vision using metaphors and stories in such a way that everyone can understand the vision. The followers see the leader as one that possesses the ability to visualize the future with clarity. The followers are also able to see how they fit into this future state, and believe it will be better than today.
Since followers can see themselves in this future vision, they support the goals of the organization and the leaders more readily. Rather than resorting to coercion, the charismatic leader builds trust among followers.
Charismatic leaders achieve their vision through persistence and personal sacrifice. They oftentimes become role models for their organizations. Since followers share in the vision, they are empowered to make decisions that move the organization more quickly towards their goals.
Some followers may find this transformation uncomfortable and disruptive to the workplace or to them personally. Others may have difficulty relating to the vision of the future. Charismatic leaders also rely heavily on their personal charm, and perceptions, which could be significantly influenced by rumors or "negative press."
History has painted a picture of former Presidents that have been both charming and charismatic. However, there have also been leaders with less honorable intentions too, even outlaws.
Arguably the most charismatic President of the United States, John F. Kennedy came from a powerful family, and was blessed with good looks in addition to his personal charisma.
Due to the charisma and style of John and Jackie, the Kennedy White House became known as Camelot. Alan Jay Lerner, Kennedy's Harvard classmate, even wrote a hit song "Camelot" for the Broadway musical, which was a personal favorite of President Kennedy.
It was mentioned earlier that charismatic leaders could also use their influence for less-than-honorable purposes; the classic example of this abuse is Charles Manson.
Some people believe it was a combination of the drug LSD coupled with Manson's charismatic personality that allowed him to manipulate others. In the end, Susan Atkins along with other members of the Manson family, were found guilty of the murder of the 26-year-old movie actress Sharon Tate and four others.
As mentioned in previous articles, Situational Leadership™ abilities can be an important factor in determining success or failure. When place in certain conditions, charismatic leaders can help to transform a company.
In fact, these charismatic qualities are very similar to those found in transformational leadership roles. They can lead organizations into new areas, inspire followers, and sometimes obtain extraordinary performance and results from an organization. First described by Max Weber in 1947 as one of three leadership styles (Bureaucratic, Traditional and Charismatic) the study of this style later evolved with the thoughts of Burns into a transformational leader.
Whether Weber or Burns is correct in their model of leadership styles is not important, what is important is to understand the skills they practice or possess. There appear to be at least four stages in the evolution of a charismatic leader, and they achieve these results by appealing to the followers in very simple ways. When such an individual finally achieves the status of "hero," the organization is likely to have been rescued.


I just left my job & the mean people wanted my 6 month old Surface Book back!
... So what did I do? I went and bought the exact same model. It's the i7; 512; Nvidia GPU version and I got a reasonable deal on it.
Should I have gone for the Book 2? Nah, I don't plan to have a real job very soon, so the saving is important, plus it still manages most of my uses. It's reasonable for graphics work, but I've never really tested it in premier... That might be a challenge.
Now you need a job to pay for it!
Well it's hard to say without knowing how much you spent. Probably should still get a job though.

A look at some important judgments passed in this historic month of September this year.
September has been the month of momentous judgements and landmarks. It seems as if the age of change and breaking stereotypes has finally arrived. Most, importantly, the Supreme Court has been instrumental in paving the way for a change. This highest court of law has proven its supremacy not just in law but also in wisdom. With the month coming to an end, it's time to look at some of the judgements that will change the times to come.
Decriminalisation of Section 377 sent joy waves around the nation. Social Media was flooded with the gay pride flags and freedom slogans. India has been struggling in terms of gay representation and equality as long as one can remember. However, this judgement passed on September 6 turned out to be a major milestone in the history of the LGBT community.
Supreme Court dispensed Section 57 of the Aadhar Act on September 29. This move received mixed reactions from the public especially the business enterprises because many companies will face hurdles accessing people's personal details now. Earlier everything was possible with a press of the thumb but now processes and accessing information will take time. However, on a macro level, the move is thought to be directed towards a positive stream since accessing confidential information has its own perils.
After changing the scenario of the rights of the LGBT community, the privacy of the people, the Supreme Court passed another landmark judgement in the sphere of gender stereotypes. The apex court lifted the ban on women in Sabarimala Temple in Kerela which restricted them from entering the temple premises. This historic verdict came after 28 years but louder were the roars of victory. Women can now menstruate and visit the temple without having their faith compromised!

Great deal on a Cuisinart 2 burner table top grill. $101.41 I have a Weber but if you need something bigger this would be a great choice. Works off a standard 20# cylinder and has stainless steel cooking grates.
Love the Cuisinart grills. We bought the CGG-200 a few years back and absolutely nothing to complain about, and they are well built. Are they the best? ......Can't say, I never tried the other brands out there.
Some folks might say Weber is the best.....Well!......With Weber, you pay a good chunk for the name. I even heard someone say his hamburgers taste so much better on a Weber !! Yeah Right !
Just an FYI, that exact grill is marketed under several different brands an can be had under a hundred dollars. I think I bought it at Home Depot for 89 bucks under the PIT BOSS name, and saw it most recently at the end of season at BJ's wholesale for 59 bucks (they called it the Heritage there). Felt like I got ripped, lol. Appears well built but haven't had the chance to use it yet. I bought it specifically for RV'ing, because it has almost as much grill space as my Weber Genesis, and has 2 burners, so you can grill indirectly.
I have this exact grill and bought it almost 3 years ago. I have had problems with the rivets breaking that hold the metal heat diffusers that sit over the burners. I had to replace them after about a year, and then another one just this last year. Other than that, it heats up quickly, and I put a quick connect hose on mine so I can connect it to the camper LP that is at the rear of the camper.
The only drawback with this model is that with the lid closed, you only have 3-4" from the lid to the grill so you can't put anything very thick on this grill.
After 3 years, I may look to replace it this year, but haven't found anything yet that I like better, and will be easy to store in the camper.

Q: Flutter Navigator popUntilOrPush Imagine you have a BottomNavigationBar with 4 Icons that will navigate to 4 screens.
When I do this:
A > B > D > B
I expect the normal behavior to pop until the first B, which leaves my stack to just A > B. With popUntil() I can achieve that. However, when using popUntil() and B does not exist in the stack, it pops the whole stack. Instead, I want to pushNamed() if B does not exist. How can I do that, since I do not have access to the stack history?
@GrahamD you are right I edited it.

A: Using @GrahamD's suggestion, here's my currently navigation config that seems kinda hacky to me but works:
main.dart
...
return MaterialApp(
  navigatorObservers: [NavObserver()],
  navigatorKey: serviceLocator<NavigationService>().navigatorKey,
  onGenerateRoute: Router().generateRoute,
...

navigation_service.dart
class NavigationService {
  final GlobalKey<NavigatorState> navigatorKey = GlobalKey<NavigatorState>();

  List<AppRoute> routeStack = [];

  ///navigate to destination and add destination to stack
  void navigateTo(AppRoute destination, {Object arguments}) {
    if (routeStack.isEmpty || routeStack.last != destination) {
      navigatorKey.currentState
          .pushNamed(destination.index.toString(), arguments: arguments);
    }
  }

  ///pushNamedAndRemoveUntil and add destination to stack after clearing it
  void pushNamedAndRemoveUntil(AppRoute route, {Object arguments}) {
    navigatorKey.currentState.pushNamedAndRemoveUntil(
        route.index.toString(), (route) => false,
        arguments: arguments);
  }

  ///pop
  void pop({Object arguments}) {
    return navigatorKey.currentState.pop(arguments);
  }

  ///if the route exists in the stack, popUntil, otherwise pushNamed
  void popUntilOrPush(AppRoute route) {
    if (routeStack.contains(route)) {
      return navigatorKey.currentState
          .popUntil(ModalRoute.withName(route.index.toString()));
    } else {
      navigateTo(route);
    }
  }
}

class NavObserver extends NavigatorObserver {
  final navService = serviceLocator<NavigationService>();

  @override
  void didPush(Route<dynamic> route, Route<dynamic> previousRoute) {
    if (route.settings.name == "/") {
      //initial route is provided by the app
      navService.routeStack.add(AppRoute.Home);
    } else {
      navService.routeStack
          .add(AppRoute.values[int.parse(route.settings.name)]);
    }
  }

  @override
  void didStopUserGesture() {}

  @override
  void didStartUserGesture(
      Route<dynamic> route, Route<dynamic> previousRoute) {}

  @override
  void didReplace({Route<dynamic> newRoute, Route<dynamic> oldRoute}) {}

  @override
  void didRemove(Route<dynamic> route, Route<dynamic> previousRoute) {
    navService.routeStack.lastWhere((AppRoute appRoute) => route.settings.name == appRoute.index.toString());
  }

  @override
  void didPop(Route<dynamic> route, Route<dynamic> previousRoute) {
    navService.routeStack.removeLast();
  }
}

class Router {
  final nav = serviceLocator<NavigationService>();

  Route<dynamic> generateRoute(RouteSettings settings) {
    final AppRoute appRoute = AppRoute.values[int.parse(settings.name)];
    switch (appRoute) {
      case AppRoute.AuthLogin:
        return PageRouteBuilder(
            settings: settings,
            pageBuilder: (_, __, ___) =>
                AuthScreen(dynamicLink: settings.arguments));

      default:

Ian Davenport is an artist based in London. His exhibition Horizons is at Dallas Contemporary until March 17, 2019.
I was attracted to the physical way that Pollock dealt with materials and his balletic, fluid gestures. I liked the performative aspect of his painting, but I did struggle with some of the discourse around his work. I was also looking for something that wasn't as mystical as Pollock's approach. I was interested in LeWitt and bought a book on his work. I like the way he described the contents of the work, the way it was made, and what it was made on. I found that straight forward and accessible. The demystification of what art could be about, seemed incredibly liberating.

Q: Finding a certain link in a webpage, using BeautifulSoup from BeautifulSoup import BeautifulSoup
import urllib2
import re

user = raw_input('begin here!: ')
base = ("http://1337x.org/search/")
print (base + user)
add_on = "/0/"
total_link = (base + user + add_on)
html_data = urllib2.urlopen(total_link, 'r').read()
soup = BeautifulSoup(html_data)
announce = soup.find('a', attrs={'href': re.compile("^/announcelist")})
print announce

i am attempting to retrieve a torrent link preferably the first non sponsored link. from a page and then have it print the link. i am rather new at this coding so as much detail as you can give would be perfect! thank you so much for the help!

A: The problem is in your regular expression. You are trying to use the ^ character to negate the regex, but it does not work in your situation. The ^ only negates a set of characters (a set of chars inside []); even in this case it only negates if it is the first char. For example, [^aeiou] means "any character except a, e, i, o and u".
When you use ^ outside a character set, then it matches the beginning of a line. For example, ^aeiou matches a line which starts with the aeiou string.
So, how would you negate a regex? Well, the best way I see is to use a negative lookahead, which is a regex that starts with (?! and ends with ). For your case, it is pretty easy:
(?!/announcelist)
So, replace the re.compile("^/announcelist") by re.compile("(?!/announcelist)") and it should work - at least worked here :)
