You cannot generalize American Indian Pottery. The traditions of each American Indian tribe were different. The most famous and renowned American Indian Pottery is thought to be that of the Southwestern American Indians. It is very distinctive in color, design and form.
There is no doubt that the Southwestern American Indians preserved their pottery better than other tribes. This is thought to be due in part to Indians elsewhere in American being forced to relocate – while the Southwest Indians were able to stay relatively close to their home base.
While each tribe had their own pottery styles, decorative patterns, firing and finishing methods – each tribe used the coil and pinch method of pottery. That is to say they never used any wheels or spinning instruments to make their ceramics – even after the Europeans arrived. Pottery was made by hand and this method is still used today.
American Indians work diligently to maintain their ancient American Indian Pottery traditions. Many Indians still excavate their own clay, create their pottery, decorate and fire them using the age-old practices of their ancient customs. By doing so, the American Indians are preserving the Indian ways.
If you are looking to invest in a fine piece of history, you should consider collecting American Indian Pottery. It is withstanding the test of time and is part of American and American Indian history.

"Disgusting Politics": Intellectual fraternity of Barak Valley reacts as Minister Ranoj Pegu discriminates
By Richik Kar	 On August 31, 2021 - 9:52 pm
The Honorable Education Minister of Assam, Ranoj Pegu, chaired a state-level round table conference of all the Student Unions in the state on the 30th of August and, very, unfortunately, no representative of Barak Valley was invited for the meet.
The bridge between Barak and Bramhaputra Valley only widens by such steps of the ruling class and exposes the ugly racial sentiments that they endorse. 35 plus organizations were present in the meeting in the State capital and represented almost all linguistic groups in the State except Bengalis. This sense of neglect has affected the overall development and growth of the Valley for over decades now but there seems to be no real solution to it.
Dr. Tapadhir Bhattacharjee who is the ex-vice chancellor of Assam University, Silchar expresses his abhorrence by saying, "We have always been taken for granted! Historically Barak Valley was never a real part of Assam and since the time it has started being one, it has faced a tremendous amount of biasness. It has always been one-way traffic and we Bengalis remain to be on a leash. What happened is yet another example of the attitude they have and it's on the greater public understanding to realize the disrespect and harm caused to us."
Tapodhir Bhattacharjee, former VC, Assam University Silchar
"It calls for a revolution to derail this school of thought."
He reminded us of the past experiences we the people of the valley have been showing and asserted, "It calls for a revolution to derail this school of thought."
Kamalakhya Dey Purakaystha, MLA, North Karimganj, states, "Even National level Student Organization like the NSUI and the ABVP were exempted of the invitation. The Anti-Bengali sentiments of this government are getting exposed with the coming in of the term "Khilanjiya" and laws like the "Clause 6".
Kamalakhya Dey Purkayastha
"I will personally take this up on the assembly floor and also within the party machinery."
He adds, "The present incident only confirms their rotten mentality towards the people of this valley. I will personally take this up on the assembly floor and also within the party machinery."
Former All India Mahila Congress President and Silchar MP, Sushmita Dev of the TMC, on the other hand, advocates why a party like the TMC is important for the people of this valley to receive their share of respect and a sense of belonging along with unbiased State machinery.
Sushmita Dev
The new ULFA accord which is being talked about and the points in Clause 6 are all part of a greater idea in the form of politics of exclusion.
She states "We Bengalis have no idea how they are planning and plotting against us! The new ULFA accord which is being talked about and the points in Clause 6 are all part of a greater idea in the form of politics of exclusion. Though the present government has built some roads and bridges but the sense of respect and oneness towards us stand to be miles away from their mindscape."
Rajib Kar
Even in the issue of Assam Acord, no deliberation is done or suggestions are taken from the people of this valley.
Dr. Rajib Kar who is the General Secretary of Bhasha Saheed Station Sahhed Sharan Samiti tells us that, "Even during Assam Acord, no deliberation is done or suggestions are taken from the people of this valley. We have always been facing this stepfamily attitude that has been exposed in all kinds of ways. Student Association layer was still a lesser one and could have been easily included in the discussions, but the leaders in Dispur simply put up a show in all of their terms."
Founding president of All Cachar Karimganj Hailkanadi Students' Association (ACKHSA) Pradip Dutta Roy is of the view that Bengali speakers in both valleys have been equally subjected to racial divison and have faced a lot of discrimination in the past.
Pradip Dutta Roy
It was really unfortunate that linguistic groups with a lot less population than Bengalis were called to the meeting by the Education Minister but we again stood discriminated.
He states, "Bengalis have been seen as a second class group of citizens here in Assam and it only grows its roots deeper over time. The Assamese-speaking class is somehow jealous of the Bengalis and can't accept that we are a developed class. There is no competition between us and we have immensely contributed to the development of the Assamese culture and language. It was really unfortunate that linguistic groups with a lot less population than Bengalis were called to the meeting by the Education Minister but we again stood discriminated. The way out of this vicious cycle only is a protest to bring autonomous status to this Valley.".
Sanjib Deb Laskar
It was really strange that such a step was taken by the minister.
Author, research scholar Sanjib Deb Laskar shares disgust. He adds, "Education is for all and shouldn't be brought under this notion of dirty politics. We Bengalis and the people of Barak have been very resourceful and helpful for the development of SEBA and have played a vital role in the educational development of the state. It was really strange that such a step was taken by the minister."
Aritra Das who is an active student's leader in the Valley shares with us, "We have been facing the discrimination on the part of the Dispur govt. on students for quite some time now, and it calls for a joint protest by all Student associations of the valley who today stand to be of no relevance for the Education Policymakers of the state."
We tried reaching out to the Honourable Member of Parliament, Silchar, Dr. Rajdeep Roy, he very sadly hung up on our phone call the moment we requested him for a comment on the topic and his phone remained busy after that. It is possible that he was preoccupied as we did not have an appointment. However, he shared many posts on social media – the issue wasn't one of them.

Tyrick Mitchell
Mitchell was a regular in both of Palace's Under-18 and Under-23 Professional Development League South winning teams in 2017/18 as he spent a second campaign featuring at both levels.
A recruit from Brentford at the end of the 2015/16 season, Mitchell is an attacking left full-back who has bundles of pace and is a good defender when faced with one-on-one situations.
He impressed sufficiently for the Academy side to be handed a chance with the Development team in 2016, and used that experience to his advantage in 17/18 as he helped his two teams to silverware.
Last season, Mitchell was a regular fixture in Richard Shaw's team and is working to overcome an injury this season having joined the first-team on their pre-season tour.

Institutional ageism appears to be built into the culture of Green Shield Health Insurance. I say that because I have been hearing stories from friends about their dealings with our insurer and because of my first-hand experience. First, I know I am lucky to have extended medical coverage in retirement, but I still expect good service and respect from our insurer. Our Pension Board recently changed from Blue Cross to Green Shield to save members money. Since my health is relatively good as is my wife's we have not had to deal much with our insurer. Friends of mine have been complaining about the service they got with Green Shield and what they used to get with Blue Cross. I thought they were exaggerating, until recently.
Institutional discrimination is being challenged in today's society. Many women are challenging the sexual discrimination and sexism that has occurred for far too many years in our institutions and our society. Racism has raised its ugly head in the United States because of the attitude of the leadership in that country. In Canada, we, as a society, have yet to come to terms with our racist attitude toward our indigenous people, but we are working (some would say not hard enough) to try to change our attitudes. But institutional and societal racism is still in Canada as noted by the killing of the indigenous youth in Saskatchewan, and the way the RCMP gave the news to his family and the not guilty verdict handed down by an all-white jury.
Ageism is another form of discrimination that exists in our institutions, and our society. Butler defined "ageism" as a combination of three connected elements. Among them were prejudicial attitudes towards older people, old age, and the ageing process; discriminatory practices against older people; and institutional practices and policies that perpetuate stereotypes about elderly people. I believe that Green Sheild practices institutional ageism because they have, I believe discriminatory practices and perpetuate stereotypes about seniors.
My wife went to her doctor to get some medication and was prescribed the medication for three months by her doctor. I went to the pharmacy and they told me that Green Shield only allows a patient a week for new medication, and after a week Green Shield would allow the patient to get the remainder of the medication. This to me, means that Green Sheild policy shows that the organization believes that seniors do not have the ability to know what is good for them and therefore Green Shield must protect seniors, which is a form of ageism.
I know that any organization that practices discrimination such as Green Shield will deny that they practice discrimination and ageism, and that is because they are blind to the facts. They may think that they are doing the best for their clients, which of course means they believe the client does not have the ability to make good decisions. Is the development of these policies based on the idea that all seniors become forgetful or get dementia or another form of cognitive slowdown?
Because they appear to have an institutional ageism, to which they are blind, Green Shield takes a paternalistic attitude towards its patients and has, it appears no problem overriding Doctors, and Specialists who prescribed the medication, which is demeaning to the patient. Because of institutional discrimination against seniors built on ageist policies, Green Shield attitudes towards its clients that are a throwback to the 50's, when paternalistic attitudes were common.
The office staff are spending quite a bit of time dealing with questions and issues around Green Shield Canada (GSC) – the Extended Health Benefit provider for members in the Pension Plan. The move to Green Shield was a decision of the Pension Board of Trustees – not (us). The decision was made following an open competition; other insurance companies were invited to submit proposals and GSC won the competition. (We) play no role in this as we have no direct contractual relationship with GSC.
Green Shield appears to have upset many of my colleagues and the executive of the organization appears to be playing a game of "it's not me it is them" to try to placate members. The executive may not have a contractual relationship with Green Shield but they do have an obligation to their members to investigate the issues and if the membership is not happy to make their wishes known to the Pension Board of Trustees. The Pension Board will not listen to individual members but it may listen to an organization that speaks for thousands of members. If the executive chooses not to act then they by their inaction are accepting that institutional discrimination practiced by Green Shield is acceptable to them.
I don't mind paying a bit more to be treated with the respect that I deserve as an adult, instead of being treated like a child by Green Shield so I would not object to a move back to Blue Cross, which did treat us with respect and did not appear to have an institutional culture of ageism and discrimination.
I did send an email stating the above to Green Shield which was taken from their website, however, the email was bounced back. (see below) So Green Shield, which has a Web page dedicated to dealing with customer complaints, doesn't even have an email on its site that is correct. What can I say about poor attitude and poor customer relations?

Priority is to capture, not to kill, says Nagarahole Tiger Reserve Director
Ponnampet: The Forest Department is following the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) issued by the National Tiger Conservation Authority (NTCA) in tracking and capturing the tiger on the prowl in South Kodagu.
Speaking to Star of Mysore this morning, Nagarahole Tiger Reserve Director D. Mahesh Kumar said that the guidelines are being followed and the first priority for the Department was to capture the big cat. "Our priority is to capture the animal as per the NTCA guidelines and we have shoot-at-sight orders and only if the situation goes out of hand, we will resort to kill it," he said.
The State Government had officially appointed sharpshooters from Bengaluru G. Susheel Kumar and Tyag Uthappa and no private sharp-shooter has been engaged in the operation, he clarified."Now only Susheel Kumar has returned. We have Tyag Uthappa and over 150 personnel. Regarding the guns to be used in the operation, we are not authorised to mention the make and bore size. But we are sticking to the guidelines," he added.
What the NTCA guidelines say?
As per the guidelines issued by the NTCA, State Forest Departments are barred from engaging a private shooter to kill a tiger for which shoot orders have been issued. Also, in the revised guidelines issued on Nov. 11, 2020, the NTCA has removed the restriction on the bore size of the gun — 'not below .375 magnum' — to be used to kill the animal.
Earlier, the SOP dealing with the procedure to shoot the animal read, "After declaring the man-eater, its elimination should be done by a Departmental personnel having the desired proficiency while providing the firearm with the appropriate bore size not below .375 magnum. In case, such expertise is not available within the Department, an expert may be co-opted from the other State Governments or outside with due authorisation."
The revised text says: "After declaring the animal as dangerous to human life, its elimination should be done by Departmental personnel having the desired proficiency while providing the firearm with the appropriate bore size. In case such expertise is not available within the Department, an expert may be co-opted from the other competent Government Department."

If you're honest with yourself – really honest – the content published on your internal communications channel is boring. Communication defines a workplace culture. Effective internal comms ensures the organisation is working together as a single cell trying to evolve and multiply.
The human brain is only able to retain a small percentage of information – even less when the student is not stimulated. As a result, the best method of learning in the current paradigm is repetition. Virtual Reality technology can enable more effective learning at a lower cost and in less time than many traditional learning methods.
Investment banks are well-positioned to drive the adoption of immersive technologies by enhancing customer experience on digital platforms. Not only is VR and AR beneficial for financial institutions, it's also a solution for your business clients.
There is no doubt that technology and animated programs are transforming business models. One of the latest strategies for large companies is to introduce gamification into the workplace.
As the old axiom indicates, youth are the future of industry. But what will the world look like in years to come if today's companies cannot engage the decision-makers of the future?
When you launch a new product, your employees need to understand the features and benefits better than your customers. Engaging and informative content has become a primary focus in marketing.
If you had a superpower, what would it be? Ours is to see into the future. We can actually do this. And we can do it for you too! How does developing an animated prototype in a sprint workshop sound?
In recent years, a spate of digital healthcare apps have been introduced to help HR officials manage the health and wellbeing of employees. This new breed of wellness apps are not only designed to deliver benefits for employees, but also employers. Can VR and AR impact wellbeing of employees and others?
Animated whiteboards can be used to educate audiences about your products, company, brand and strategy. You can even use them to explain mergers, acquisitions or organisational changes. However, do you know what a whiteboard animation is and it's advantages?
Chatbots are already proving their worth for basic tasks – and they have much more potential to offer forward-thinking enterprises. The scope to improve the operational efficiency of your office and dramatically streamline both internal and external communications is huge. However, will chatbots make your teams streamline work processes better and more efficient?
How Can You Integrate VR Into Your LMS?
Integrating virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) technologies into learning management systems (LMS) gives businesses an opportunity to measure the capability of employees and identify where improvements can be made. Do you know how many benefits there are when integrating VR/ AR with a LMS?
What Can VR Do For Your Business?
Putting VR technology to practical business use provides advantages that have never been available in the past. And because the technology is so versatile, you can produce anything your imagination allows you to. Or in other words, whatever environment you need to help your business thrive.
Virtual Reality (VR) and 360 video are exciting new technologies that are rapidly changing the way we interact content. They provide a much more immersive experience for viewers, and the possibilities are endless.
Corporate training is moving into the eLearning space, it is not always easy for trainers to easily identify areas of weaknesses in employees. However, with advanced tools that can track quantifiable data on dedicated training platforms – such as Experience API – trainers and trainees will achieve much more, much faster.
VR is not only for gaming and making films pop to life. Organisations are using VR technology to create real-world training programs for employees and marketers provide customers with fully-immersive experiences. Even if you don't know much about virtual reality or the technology, you probably know enough about VR to recognize its potential. But what should your business expect from virtual reality, and is the technology worthy of all the hype?
For your vision to become a reality, you have to find a way of communicating your masterplan to a board of directors, staff and customers. In the past, you had to rely on written documents, graphs, images and rousing speeches. But was the message received?
Animation explainer videos enable businesses to penetrate the minds and memories of customers. Visual content is an effective way of selling products, ideas, and philosophies, together with providing customers with a broader understanding of what lies at the heart of your brand.
Our MD, Jamie Denham, spoke about "VR Technology for Medicine" at the Knowledge Transfer Network's 9th Intelligent Imaging event in Glasgow. Imaging as the most information rich sensing technology is one of the most important technology widely utilised across human society and industries, from entertainment, healthcare, security, agriculture to transport, energy and space, etc.

What is involved in making a 90 second character explainer animation?
So, you want to get a message to your employees, colleagues or customers that grabs their attention and is informative? Here at Sliced Bread we have proven knowledge of how video and animation campaigns can drive viewer engagement.
In both film and animation production, there are several stages of development which contribute to producing a high-end quality product. Right at beginning of this process, before a single frame of animation is produced, there should be the storyboarding stage, this allows you to plot out the main action that goes on and to convey the correct emotion and/or message in the scene.

Let's find out more about the 10 reasons for using animation in your business communication and marketing.
Do you have trouble finding the best way of communicating with your employees?
Communication within business is vital to success, whether that's between you and your consumer, you and your shareholders, or you and your employees. If we communicate effectively we can improve productivity, moral, efficiency.
We know our social channels need to look good, and host interesting content, but the question for most people is: how do we effectively engage with our viewers and followers?
'Storytelling' is often thought of as a buzzword from decades ago, but is vital to understand the positive impact it can have when used in the workplace, or in your business' marketing. People are attracted to stories – we are social creatures and crave that connection, whether we realise it or not. But where do you start?
How animation can be used to improve your search engine optimization. As consumers demand more video content from their online usage, search engines will rank your website higher when it features an animation video. But is your business making the most of one of the effective elements out there today to improve your SEO?
Communication is crucial, regardless of whether your audience is your workforce, or your customers. Why not add an animated character or mascot to your advertising, or e-learning programme?
Does humour improve corporate communication?
We are more likely to discuss something funny or shocking that we have seen with our colleagues, as videos of this nature are inherently more interesting to us. Discussing what they have seen is a positive way of actively engaging with the information.
Why Should You Use Animation To Illustrate Medical Devices?
Animation is fast becoming the go-to technique to illustrate medical devices and processes because it is a clear and easy way to communicate a product's benefits.
Usually the first thing people think of when asked about augmented reality is its uses within the gaming industry, however we are now seeing more and more companies prove that AR is also a really useful tool for business and retail.

Viacom and Google Resolve Copyright Litigation Over YouTube
The long-running legal battle between Viacom and Google over YouTube has been resolved. Viacom has been suing Google since 2007, arguing that the online video site violated copyrights. The two companies announced yesterday that they have settled out of court. Specific terms of the settlement were not disclosed, but people familiar with the matter suggest that both sides are now free to explore potential business partnerships, including the possibility of collaboration on advertising technology.
"At one point Viacom, the cable powerhouse that owns networks such as MTV and Comedy Central, had been seeking $1 billion in damages from Google," reports Re/code. "But no money traded hands in the settlement, according to people familiar with the transaction."
"One area of potential collaboration relates to advertising technology, where Google is a powerhouse, one of the people said. Viacom is looking for a partnership in that area as it expands distribution of its content online and on mobile devices," notes The Wall Street Journal.
"This settlement reflects the growing collaborative dialogue between our two companies on important opportunities, and we look forward to working more closely together," explained the companies in a joint statement.
Viacom initially brought the case against YouTube, claiming the site had infringed on copyrights by allowing its users to post nearly 160,000 unauthorized clips of Viacom-owned programs. A federal judge ruled twice against Viacom, which continued to appeal. The matter was scheduled to go back to court next week.
"Seven years ago, the copyright lawsuit looked like it would have major implications for the way the Web worked," suggests Re/code. "But by now the suit had become an asterisk, because in many ways the core issues have been settled by both the courts and the market. In very broad strokes, the practical consensus is that digital services like YouTube — and Twitter, and Facebook, and everyone else that distributes lots of content uploaded by its users — are not responsible for copyright violations if they don't explicitly encourage them, and if they let copyright holders take down stuff they don't want up there."
Google's introduction of the Content ID filtering technology addressed that issue. Content ID helps detect copyrighted content on YouTube so that media companies can decide whether or not they want it removed.
"Google's approach to dealing with media companies has evolved over the years," explains WSJ. "Besides developing Content ID, the company has shown an appetite to license content. In recent months, for example, even as the litigation was pending, it approached Viacom and other media companies about licensing the rights to TV channels for an online pay-TV service Google was considering developing, said people familiar with the matter. Those plans haven't advanced very far."
Insiders suggests that, despite the settlement, Viacom is more interested in working with pay TV operators to distribute content online through the TV Everywhere model than making a major push to distribute content via YouTube.

Dope On The Road: The Hawaii Cannabis Expo
Facebook Twitter Google+ LinkedIn Reddit
The warm island air hit me in the face as I stepped off the Boeing airliner and onto the jet bridge at the Daniel K. Inouye International Airport. It had been a rainy 40 degrees when the crew left Seattle, and we were all ready for some time in the sun. We were here to cover the third annual Hawaii Cannabis Expo, which would be kicking off the following day. I had been a part of the expo since its conception in 2015, recruited by a small group of Hawaiian cannabis entrepreneurs at a California High Times event and had instantly fallen in love with island culture.
The cannabis community in Hawaii is a strong one, and cannabis has been flourishing on the islands for hundreds of years as a result. Cannabis itself was not of Hawaii, like almost everything on the islands; it was brought here by early settlers, flourishing in the warm humid weather of the South Pacific. Man came to the islands in 300 CE when a small group of Polynesians seeking religious freedom struck out for unknown waters, following the North Star some 2,000 miles by canoe before eventually discovering and colonizing the chain of eight islands now known as Hawaii.
It was set up day and things were in full swing as we arrived at the Blaisdell Center, home to the Hawaii Cannabis Expo. This was the first attempt at a mainstream cannabis event in Hawaii, and the Blaisdell Center had been somewhat of a begrudging host for the last three years, though the relationship seemed to be warming.
I was surprised to see some familiar mainland brands among the locals. We stopped by Exotic Genetics on our way in, and their booth was plastered in Cannabis Cup awards of all shapes and sizes. "This is about half, we don't have room to bring all of them anymore," said owner/founder Mike Menigoz, motioning to their collection. Third generation California farmer and DNA Genetics co-founder "Crockett" was also on hand, and I started to get the feeling that next year's Expo was going to be a lot bigger.
While recreational use was still illegal, medical cannabis came to the state in 2000, granting licensed patients the right to grow, possess and consume marijuana on the islands. The general attitude towards cannabis on Oahu seemed to be shifting towards the positive, and the Expo was serving as a kind of temperature gauge. The first Cannabis Expo had not been without its challenges. The local police department maintained a visible presence throughout the event, while promoters juggled to meet the demands of the Blaisdell center, who seemed to be unsure of just what they had gotten themselves into.
We were almost arrested the second year for running a rosin press at our booth. The thing had cost us $400 to bring to the island, and people lined up all day long for a chance to squish their own buds. Halfway through the day we got a heads up that Vice would be paying us a visit, and we barely made it out of the building and into a waiting Uber as local PD piled in a side door.
Halfway through the first day of year three and the difference was night and day. Blaisdell staff laughed with the vendors, sampling the wares and enjoying the event as much as the hundreds of tourists and locals filing through the exhibition hall. The police were nowhere to be seen and a smoking area had been roped off for visitors over 21.
Life on the islands had not always been so peaceful, with each island maintaining strong religious and political identities until their violent unification in 1810, under the rule of King Kamehameha, establishing the sovereign Kingdom of Hawaii. Kamehameha's monarchy would live on until January 17, 1893, when then ruling Queen Liliuokalani was ousted by a group of white missionary businessmen conspiring with the aid of U.S. military troops to overthrow the then-independent island nation. The coup was a success, and in 1898 Hawaii was officially declared a U.S. territory.
A group of guys from Molokai walked by our booth. One wore a shirt reading "American By Force," reminding me that not everything in paradise was as it seemed. Relations between the locals and off-islanders had always been a little tense, exacerbated over the years by the large American military presence and the never-ending stream of tourists, all seen as encroachments by many of the native-born Hawaiians.
My personal experiences in Hawaii over the years couldn't have been more positive. As members of the cannabis community, the doors were thrown open for us and we were welcomed as family by locals as hungry for the exchange of knowledge and friendship as we were. One in six Hawaiians are living under the poverty line, and that number doubles for natives. Hawaii is becoming too expensive for the Hawaiians to live there, and they're leaving the islands in record numbers. According to the 2000 U.S. census there were more native Hawaiians living on the mainland than in Hawaii itself. Here, like on the mainland, cannabis represented economic mobility, a second chance for a people pushed to the edge of cultural extinction.
As day three came to a close, an old industry friend stopped by the booth. "Ever seen a real Hawaiian grow?" he asked me. I shook my head no. While any medical patient could grow up to seven plants, large-scale grows are relatively unheard of on the islands. Flipping through his phone my eyes widened at the rows of hoop houses and lush plants surrounded by jungle. He looked at me, smiling. "What do you know about the Hawaiian sovereignty movement?"

Skådespelssamhället (originaltitel: La Société du spectacle) är en bok från 1967 av den franske situationisten och filosofen Guy Debord. Den utkom först i Paris och anses vara en av de viktigaste inspirationskällorna bakom Majrevolten i Frankrike 1968. Debord går bland annat till långtgående attack mot strukturalismen, vilken han anser vara ahistorisk.

Varför boken skrevs
Avsikten var att formulera en sammanhängande teori om det moderna kapitalistiska samhället, en teori som skulle kunna användas som vapen i en vardagslivets revolution (jämför Raoul Vaneigem) och ersätta dagens alienation, konsumism och exploatering med en autonom, fri och passionerad mänsklig tillvaro.

Guy Debord skrev i förordet till fjärde italienska utgåvan av Skådespelssamhället:
"1967 ville jag att Situationistiska Internationalen skulle ha en teoribok. SI var vid den tiden den extremistgrupp som hade gjort mest för att återinföra en revolutionär kritik i det moderna samhället, och det var lätt att inse att denna grupp närmade sig höjdpunkten på sin historiska bana efter att ha segrat på den teoretiska kritikens område och skickligt slagit in på den praktiska agitationens. Det gällde att en sådan bok skulle finnas till hands under de oroligheter som var på väg att bryta ut, och att dessa skulle vidarebefordra boken till de omfattande subversiva följdverkningar som de inte kunde undgå att åstadkomma. /.../
Helt klart måste en allmän teori som utarbetas för detta ändamål framförallt undvika att framstå som uppenbart felaktig och därför inte kunna läggas fram med tanke på risken att bli motsagd av den följande händelseutvecklingen. Men den måste också vara en fullständigt oacceptabel teori. Det krävs att den kan peka ut det nav som den existerande världen rör sig kring som något dåligt genom att avslöja dess precisa natur, till harmsen bestörtning för dem som finner det gott. Teorin om skådespelet uppfyller båda dessa villkor".

Vad är "skådespelet"?
Boken är avfattad i 211 korta paragrafer. Dessa är i sin tur uppdelade i nio kapitel, med rubrikerna:

"Fullständig uppdelning", "Varan som skådespel", "Enhet och splittring i framträdelsen", "Proletariatet som subjekt och som representation", "Tid och historia", "Skådespelets tid", "Fysisk planering", "Negation och konsumtion i kulturen" samt "Ideologin förkroppsligad".

Det totalt självbekräftande och hypnotiska skådespelssamhället av idag, där människorna endast tilldelas den passiva åskådarens och den manipulerade konsumentens roll, beskrivs och dissekeras av Debord både minutiöst och skoningslöst. Motstånd är inte meningslöst och under alla förhållanden nödvändigt, men utmaningen är oerhörd och det krävs en helt ny revolutionär metodik.

Bokens relevans i dag
Trots att boken inte hör till de mer lättillgängliga har intresset för den stadigt ökat. Antonio Negri menade (2000) att "Guy Debords analys av skådespelssamhället tycks mer än trettio år efter dess tillkomst mer träffande och angelägen än någonsin".

Sammanfattning
I boken hävdar Debord att skådespelet har kommit att dominera alla aspekter av det moderna samhället. Skådespelet är enligt Debord också rotat i moderniteten och att det tjänar till att alienera individer från sina egna liv och från varandra. Han hävdar också att skådespelet har ersatt äkta mänsklig interaktion och kommunikation med en falsk känsla av enhet och gemenskap, och att det fungerar som ett verktyg för den härskande klassen som önskar upprätthålla sin makt och kontroll över massorna. Skådespelet är således inte blott passiviserande i form av den "underhållning" det kan producera, utan är snarare ett totaliserande socialt förhållande som formar vår förståelse av världen, och vår plats i den. Vidare är också skådespelet en form av dominans som tvingar individer att anpassa sig till vissa ideal och värderingar, och tjänar till att distrahera människor från samhällets problem och ojämlikheter.

Debord hävdar också att skådespelet är en form av propaganda som främjar konsumtion och fokus på materiell rikedom, och att det tjänar till att dölja de sociala relationernas sanna tillstånd och till att dölja exploateringen av människorna via arbete. Han hävdar att skådespelet är ett sätt för den härskande klassen att upprätthålla sin makt och kontroll över massorna, och att det tjänar till att hindrar människor från att ifrågasätta status quo.

Enligt Debordkännaren Anselm Jappe bör boken inte förstås som mediakritisk, utan primärt som en kritik av ett samhälle strukturerat kring varuformen.

What is a Cooling System Cleanse & Fluid Exchange?
The cooling system serves the purpose to keep the engine cool and prevent overheating of the system. The coolant and cooling system act as armor to prevent the engine from harmful environmental factors such as overheating or freezing. This system uses a coolant fluid to promote cooling throughout the entire system, operating on a track as it moves throughout. Coolant is also used to prevent freezing of the system, as well as corrosion. All of these preventatives can cause significant damage to an engine. A fluid exchange refers to the service required where the coolant fluid is changed out periodically. Like other fluids, coolant fluid will break down and the performance of the cooling system will deteriorate without fresh coolant fluid.
When the time comes to have your cooling system cleaned and your coolant fluid exchanged, it is critical to have that system serviced. The purpose of this system and the fluid is to shield the engine and maintain its temperature. Having your cooling system cleansed and fluid exchanged allows is not required as often as oil changes. Having this done every year will rinse rust from your system and prevent corrosion within the system. Exchanging the fluid will enhance the performance of the cooling system in the same way that fresh oil boosts engine performance in an oil change.
What Are Ramifications If I Skip This Maintenance?
If you choose not to have this maintenance performed, you can expect your engine to suffer from overheating due to the underperforming coolant. Overheating and lack of antifreeze capabilities will cause different parts in the engine to begin corroding and being negatively impacted by environmental temperatures. This is very dangerous, especially for any passengers in the vehicle when the system begins to fail. After going for a long period without this cleanse and fluid exchange, expect more significant consequences of engine breakdown and potential cracking due to overheating or freezing.

Energy grid at 'crisis point'..
The state's energy grid is at a "crisis point" as power prices soared to more than 100 times the usual rate last week.
Several major electricity power stations went down on Thursday night, unprepared for a spike in demand caused by a cold snap along Australia's east coast.
It forced one of Australia's largest aluminium smelters to shut down its potlines for an hour at a time to help keep the state's lights on.
CEO Matt Howell tells Ray Hadley the price hike would be like a motorist paying over $400 a litre for petrol and would have seen his business lose $5 million an hour.
Mr Howell has hit back at suggestions New South Wales should go down the same track as South Australia and buy a giant Tesla battery.
Finance Editor Ross Greenwood tells Ray it was a "close run", with the state running out of energy reserves from Wednesday through Friday last week.
"If Liddell comes out it'll be a bigger problem because more of those coal-fired power stations will have more pressure and stress placed upon them," Ross explains.
Queensland One Nation Leader Steve Dickson weighed in on the issue, phoning in to call for coal-fired power stations to be put at the top of the national agenda.
"At the end of the day, you have a spare tyre in the car for a reason.

Q: How to use the value of lookup field in soql so that I can display all the records related to that user? I am trying to get all the records related to the user I select from the lookup field in the visual-force page after clicking the search button.
But the problem is I am not able to compare the value of lookup field in the apex class in soql query.
The code is working for the text value as if I use the  then i can pass the text value and for this text value the code works but when I try the same thing for lookup field it gives me error.

in the below code 'Daily_Record__c' is the custom object having the lookup relation with the 'User' standard object.
Apex code :-

  <apex:inputfield value="{!Daily_Record__c.Username__c}"/>

   <apex:inputtext value="{!strAccSearchString}"/>
    <apex:commandButton value="Search" action="{!SearchAccountRec}"/>
    <apex:pageBlock rendered="true" title="Search Result">
        <apex:pageBlockTable value="{!lstAccount}" var="acc">
             <apex:column >
                <apex:facet name="header">Name</apex:facet>
                <apex:outputLink value="/{!acc.id}">{!acc.Username__c}</apex:outputLink>
            </apex:column>
            <apex:column >
            </apex:column>

    public String strAccSearchString {get; set;}
    public List<Daily_Record__c> lstAccount {get; set;}
    public List<Daily_Record__c> lstAccount1 {get; set;}
    public boolean isResultDisplay {get; set;}
    public workshop(){
      lstAccount = new List<Daily_Record__c>();
        isResultDisplay = false;
    }
     public void SearchAccountRec(){
        isResultDisplay = true;
       string strLikeString = '%'+strAccSearchString+'%';
        string strSOQL = 'select Username__c from Daily_Record__c  where Username__c like :strLikeString';
        lstAccount = database.query(strSOQL);
   }

}

please help me to solve this....

A: you can use dot notation in SOQL to get some field value of a lookup reference object.
I assume Username__c field on Daily_Record__c object is a lookup on User object. You want to make a SOQL and filter User.Name  field.
String strSOQL = 'select Username__c from Daily_Record__c  where Username__r.Name like :strLikeString';
