Q: .gitignore doesn't work in windows terminal So i made logs file in this directory :

And then used echo logs/ > .gitignore
After that i used code .gitignore to ignore logs/ in my .gitignore and i'm doing this on new Windows Terminal but i get this when i go to see the status :

Here is the actual content on my .gitignore :

But when i do all of this on Git Bash i get the expected result and if i go to windows terminal after that it somehow got applied to it and now logs/ got ignored.
I don't know what is wrong with my windows terminal so i would appreciate any help.

A: You mention that this does seem to work correctly when using bash as your shell, but not when using some other command-line-interpreter (whatever comes up in "my windows terminal", presumably).  Some Windows users have experienced that their command line interpreter writes files using a Windows UTF-16-LE encoding, rather than UTF-8.  Git cannot read UTF-16-LE .gitignore file contents as it does not know how to decode UTF-16-LE here.  So that's the most likely cause, as bash will not try to re-encode everything intu UTF-16-LE.

A: @torek Thank you, it had something to do with `utf-8.
I added a few lines in my powershell profile notepad :
[Console]::OutputEncoding = [System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8
$PSDefaultParameterValues['Out-File:Encoding'] = 'utf8'
$PSDefaultParameterValues['Get-Content:Encoding'] = 'utf8'
enter image description here
Then i checked the box for Beta: Use Unicode UTF-8 for worldwide language support :
enter image description here
After rebooting the computer it worked and started to ignore logs/ :
enter image description here
I'm grateful for your help.


Writing an acknowledgement for a dissertation in psychology or any topic for that matter is the time when you can thank everyone who contributed to your success in completing this project. A successful acknowledgement will consider everyone from your family and friends to the professors who aided in your work so when you arrive at this point in your work consider following these steps to writing the best acknowledgement section possible.
Writing a work as large as a dissertation is the compilation of many long days of research work and composition. During this time you will have made sacrifices in your personal life in order to do the work that is truly necessary to be successful.
When you are composing your acknowledgement consider these sacrifices that you have made as well as your family and friends and make sure to mention them in your acknowledgement. Remember those acquaintances as well who you would regularly meet with for friendly conversation as they can also be included.
Finally, if you had a loyal pet who sat by your side throughout the entire process remember them as well when you compose the acknowledgement.
It is always better to include too many people than to risk missing someone important so do not be afraid to be wordy in this section of your writing.
The next, and probably the most important section of the acknowledgement are the professors and research partners who helped and guided you throughout your work. These valuable partners provided guidance, coaching and experience throughout the entire process and it is essential that you mention their contributions to your success. During your research it can be beneficial to keep a log of everyone you have worked with or who has contributed their time and resources so that when you are complete, you will have a thorough list of everyone the contributed and will not risk missing anyone in the acknowledgement section of the work.
The acknowledgement section has considerable weight on the finished project so it is essential that you include everyone that contributed to the work. From the professors who coached you through your research activities to the family pet who may have sat next to you while you were compiling your work, make sure to include them all in the acknowledgement.

Unrecognizable Clint Frazier could ease Yankees' injury chaos
TAMPA — In a perfect world, Aaron Judge would have enough time to be ready for Opening Day.
However, the third and fourth words of that lede don't apply to the Yankees when it comes to health.
One season removed from wearing out the injured list with 39 moves, the Yankees already have lost Luis Severino for the season because of Tommy John surgery, might be without James Paxton until at least May due to back surgery, shut down Giancarlo Stanton with a Grade 1 right calf strain and haven't seen Judge progress to taking batting practice on the field. He was swinging against coach-pitching indoors until the problem returned this past weekend.
Judge was scheduled for tests on Monday that the Yankees hoped would discover the reason the right fielder was feeling discomfort in the right shoulder/pectoral muscle area for a second time since he arrived in Florida before spring training officially started. According to Aaron Boone, an MRI on Saturday was negative but further tests were scheduled for Monday. The Yankees didn't discuss the results of the tests.
So, it is a possibility the Yankees won't have Judge and Stanton in the lineup when the Yankees start their season in Baltimore on March 26.
When Stanton was shut down, Boone said the Yankees would be "up against it'' when asked about the left fielder/DH being ready for Opening Day.
Which brings us to Clint Frazier getting a chance to cash in on a fast start to the exhibition schedule. There are several possibilities for the 25-year-old, right-handed hitting outfielder. He could form a platoon with Mike Tauchman in left with Judge in right. Or, Frazier could be the left fielder with Tauchman in right instead of Judge.
Aaron Judge; Clint Frazier; Giancarlo StantonCharles Wenzelberg (3)
Either way, the Yankees would be depending on Frazier more than ever and what he has done in five spring training games (3-for-10, one homer, two RBIs and no strikeouts) is encouraging.
"He looks better. The plate discipline is there and it's a lot of fastballs right now so it's too early for a true read,'' a talent evaluator said of Frazier, who has looked more comfortable at the plate and in the outfield than last season, when he was streaky at the plate and shaky in the field.
Thirteen days into camp, Frazier has blended into the Yankees' fabric by not drawing attention to himself except for his performance on the field. A mop of red hair was a lightning rod during his first year of camp. Last year, it was shoes. None of that has been on display this spring.
"I think he knows he needs to grow up,'' the scout said.
Another scout noticed Frazier's lower half is more stable at the plate and he appears to have gotten stronger without losing athleticism. The defense also has improved.
Frazier, the fifth overall pick in the 2013 draft by the Indians, hit .267 with 12 homer, 38 RBIs and a .806 OPS in 69 games last season.
Of course, the Yankees are a better team with Stanton and Judge at the corner outfield spots. Yet, recent history shows they have had difficulty staying on the field.
Stanton, who played in 158 games in 2018 (his first season with the Yankees) was limited to 18 a year ago with various injuries.
Judge played in 155 games in 2017 when he hit 52 homers, drove in 114 runs and was the AL Rookie of the Year, while also finishing second to Houston's Jose Altuve in the AL MVP voting. In the past two seasons, Judge has played in a combined 214 games, an average of 107 each year.

Conference Championships Loom Large This Weekend
Collegiate Sports, NCAA Football
It has all come down to this: a handful of conference championships that will determine the bowl placement for 70 college football teams later this month and into January.
Regular season winds downs.
A half dozen games will have significant bearing, with several other games having a much smaller impact. No one ever said that Division 1-A (FBS) football makes sense and soon, we'll see just how senseless it can seem, at least for some teams.
Big on everyone's list this weekend is #14 Georgia taking on #1 LSU this Saturday for the SEC championship. The Bulldogs opened the season with losses to Boise State and South Carolina, but have gone 10-0 since. LSU is 12-0 and will be the top seed with a win. However, even if Georgia upsets the Tigers, LSU could still be ranked as high as #2 and take on Arkansas or Alabama for the national championship. Figure that the BCS title game will be an SEC affair again this year with the conference assured of its fifth consecutive national championship.
Even before this Saturday's action gets started, West Virginia will take on South Florida on Thursday night for a chance to stay in the BCS hunt. However, the Mountaineers will have to win their game and hope that they're computer ranked higher than Louisville which at 7-5 has clinched a share of the Big East title. Louisville isn't an automatic for a BCS game, but they still have a chance of getting in.
How did a 6-6 UCLA team get to match up against #9 Oregon for the Pac 10 title game? That's easy — 10-2 USC isn't eligible for the game or a post season appearance. The Bruins are coming off of a 50-0 lashing by the Bruins and may have just as difficult a time on Friday night against the Ducks. Other than west coast audiences, this game isn't likely to draw much interest beyond that area of the country.
Other championship games have #24 Southern Miss battling #6 Houston for the Conference USA title, with the latter all but assured of an at-large BCS berth. Should the Golden Eagles surprise the Cougars, then Houston's fortunes will likely rest on how the remaining games turn out this weekend. Don't expect Houston to lose, even though they struggled during the first half of their game against Tulsa last week. Houston and LSU are likely to both finish 13-0, but not face each other for the BCS title game.
Virginia Tech vs. Clemson and Wisconsin vs. Michigan State are two more title games of consequence. However, #10 Oklahoma taking on #3 Oklahoma State will likely lead to one of those teams getting a BCS nod with the other having to settle for a bowl of little consequence.
The regular season is not officially over until Dec. 10 when Army takes on Navy in Washington, D.C. Neither team is bowl eligible this year, therefore this game will be each team's "bowl" game to close out the regular season. We'll publish our bowl outlook next week and include our predictions on outcomes too.

August of last year, I reviewed Level Up, by the same author, and since that book had a number of useful ideas, I looked forward to diving into this book.
Mr. Khan's editing still leaves some to be desired (though this book had fewer glaring mistakes than Level Up), however, the premise of the book, along with the concepts he outlines in Productivity Handbook are spot on.
As a fellow productivity fan, the concepts in this book are mostly things I'm already doing, i.e.: actually doing the work. You can study ideas and suggestions and concepts until the cows come home, but folks, if you don't put it in gear and DO, you're never going to get anywhere.
This book is a quick, easy read at just over 100 pages (105 to be exact). I was able to read it in a single afternoon, and in the introduction, Mr. Khan promises to lay out his concepts in easy language that a twelve year old could grasp. As the parent of a twelve year old, I'm very tempted to put him to the test, but for now, I'll refrain. Sam already has a reading list for reviews that is amazing.

Do Condominiums Pay Less for Heating?
Posted on November 1, 2020 | Policy Brief
In Ukraine, a widely shared perception is that housing utility costs are too high. In this policy brief, we study if these costs can be alleviated by introducing a modern form of housing management practice, condominiums. We find that condominiums in old houses (built before 1991) pay 22% less for heating compared to old non-condominiums. Among new houses (built after 1991), we find that condominiums pay 29% less for heating. Considering the dynamics of condominium formation in 2018-2020, old houses do not show any significant immediate effect of condominium formation on heating costs relative to that of non-condominiums. However, condominium formation among new houses leads to a relative 18% decrease in heating costs. In addition, among condominiums in old houses, participation in an overhaul co-financing program is associated with a 15% lower heating bill. The immediate effect of the program in 2018-2020 is a 16% relative decrease in heating costs for old condominiums and 37% – for new ones.
Heating Costs and Condominiums
In recent years, the cost of housing utilities has been a common concern among Ukrainians. According to a recent survey, 80% of Ukrainians believe that tariffs on utilities are too high.
The form of housing management is a factor that could affect utility costs. Experiences from Slovakia, Hungary, Poland, and Romania in the 1990s suggest that state-owned housing maintenance companies are often associated with inefficient management. Residential buildings that are owned and managed collectively by its dwellers (hereafter referred to as condominiums) are more likely to choose a more efficient private housing maintenance company (Banks, O'Leary et. al., 1996). For instance, in Slovakia's second-largest city, Kosice, one-third of houses that were privatized in the 1990s chose private maintenance companies with competitive prices. Residents perceived the services as "far more effective" (ibid).
This brief summarizes our analysis of the relationship between heating costs and the form of housing management in Ukraine. Analyzing a large sample of houses in Kyiv, we show that condominiums are associated with lower heating costs, both among the older houses, built before Ukrainian independence in 1991, and among newer houses.
Types of Housing Management Practices in Ukraine
The different housing management practices in Ukraine can be roughly divided into three types. The most commonly used practice is when housing maintenance is carried out by a municipally owned company (commonly referred to as ZhEK – "zhilischno-eksplotazionnaja kontora", housing maintenance office). Usually, houses that have the ZhEK-type management were built before Ukrainian independence and have kept this practice since Soviet times. The second practice is when housing maintenance is done by a private company affiliated with the building developer. This management type is usually used by houses built after Ukrainian independence that did not form condominiums. These two practices are similar in the sense that dwellers are not directly involved in the decision-making, all decisions are made by the municipal or private company, respectively.
The third type of housing management practice, relatively new for Ukraine, is condominium ownership (the Ukrainian term for it is ОСББ, translated as "Association of Co-owners of Multi-Apartment House"). In a condominium, unlike in the previous two types, the house is managed collectively by the dwellers; in particular, they have the freedom to choose and/or change utility providers, invest in major overhaul, and participate in co-financing programs.
Houses with Condominiums Pay Less for Heating
In our analysis, we use monthly data on housing costs between 2018 and 2020 collected from the Ukrainian municipal enterprise Kyivteploenergo. The data covers more than 70% of residential buildings in Kyiv and includes information on heating costs per square meter, whether or not the house is a condominium, and other house-characteristics (including the source of heating production; the presence of the meter; type of the meter number of service days per month; and share of heat consumption by legal entities).
In addition, we have information on the year of building construction retrieved from the real estate portal LUN, and condominium formation date between 2018-2020, as well as data on house participation in overhaul co-financing programs obtained from the Kyiv state administration.
Our final sample contains 7957 houses. Since we only are interested in apartment housing, we exclude residential buildings with an area below 500 m2, which would normally correspond to a small private house (these constitute only a small part of our sample). The share of condominiums in the sample is 11%, the share of houses with ZhEK is 81% and the share of houses managed by private companies is 8%.
Figure 1. Median costs for heating per m2 across housing management types and house age.
Source: Authors' calculations. Old houses are those built before 1991, the year of Ukrainian independence, and new houses are built after 1991.
Figure 1 provides preliminary evidence towards our hypothesis, showing that the median heating costs are lower in condominiums, independent of the year of construction.
In our first econometric model, we use an OLS-approach to compare utility costs across different types of housing and management models, while controlling for a number of observable characteristics. We find that condominiums in old houses pay 22% less for heating than old non-condominium. Similarly, we find that condominiums in new houses pay 29% less for heating compared to new non-condominiums.
The lower heating costs observed in condominiums may have several explanations:
First, condominium-type management could be more flexible in its response to weather conditions. Considering that they are profit-maximizing, heating providers in Ukraine tend to overheat houses during the heating season; it could be that condominiums reduce consumption of heating on the warmer days to a greater extent than other houses. In other words, condominiums could increase the efficiency of heating use.
Second, it could be that condominiums have lower heating costs because they improve energy efficiency, for example, by installing individual heating points (an automatized unit transferring heat energy from external heat networks to the house heating, hot water supply, ventilation, etc.), new windows, or even insulating the house.
Is There an Immediate Effect?
The next step in our econometric analysis is to study the effect of condominium formation during 2018-2020. Here, we investigate whether non-condominium houses that became condominiums experienced changes in heating costs by utilizing a fixed-effects regression model. This approach not only allows us to assess the immediate effect of condominium formation but also controls for unobservable house-specific characteristics that are constant over time, such as differences in building materials.
For new houses, we find that condominium formation decreases heating costs by 18% compared to other new houses. For old houses, we find that the corresponding effect is statistically insignificant.
This estimation only evaluates the effect of condominium formation in a relatively short timeframe, between 2018 and 2020. While the data coverage does not allow us to give a precise quantitative assessment for a long-run effect, we argue that the positive impact of condominium formation on heating costs could potentially be higher in the longer-run. Indeed, our previous OLS estimation assesses the average utility costs for all condominiums in the sample (including those formed prior to 2018). It shows that the gap in heating costs between all condominiums and non-condominiums is higher than the corresponding gap derived from our fixed-effects estimation (22% for the old houses and 29% – for the new ones). While this difference in results can be driven by several reasons (e.g., fixed effect estimation taking into account unobservable house-specific characteristics), a stronger long-term effect could be among them.
Concerning the results for new vs. old houses, it might be the case that new houses are technically equipped to be more flexible when it comes to adjusting costs (e.g., are able to switch the heating on/off), while old houses might be inferior in this regard. If this is the case, old houses would only experience lower costs after some thermo-modernization, such as installing individual heating points.
Heating Costs and the Co-financing Program
Since 2015, the Kyiv city council offers a program that helps condominiums to finance major overhauls with the intent to improve the energy efficiency of the residential sector. Applicants compete in planning thermo-modernization projects where winning condominiums are awarded financing covering 70% of the overhaul cost.
Our results show that for old houses with condominiums, those who at some point participated in the co-financing program pay on average 15% less for heating compared to non-participants. The corresponding effect for new houses with condominiums is not significantly different from zero.
However, the immediate effect of program participation is present in both new and old houses with condominiums. Old and new condominiums that took part in the program in 2018-2019 experienced an immediate reduction in heating costs by 16% and 37% respectively.
Figure 2. The number of houses participating in the 70/30 co-financing program across the years.
Authors' calculations.
There are several potential explanations as to why we observe an immediate effect but no effect of ever participating in the program for the new houses with condominiums.
First, it could be that new houses with condominiums that are not participating in the program are investing in overhaul anyway, although somewhat delayed compared to investments made by participating new condominiums. The average difference in heating costs between participants and non-participants would then be visible in the short-run and fade away after a few years. If this is the case, the program is financing houses that would have invested in overhaul anyway, even without co-financing. This explanation is partly supported by the fact that the share of the new houses condominiums among participants is 32%, while the corresponding share is 15% among all houses. In other words, old houses with condominiums, that are usually in a worse condition, are underrepresented in the program.
If this is the case, the share of old houses with condominiums among participants should be increased. Given that the purpose of the program is to improve the energy efficiency of residential buildings, its efficient implementation implies encouraging overhauls in houses that are otherwise unable to fund it. In other words, the program should incentivize people living in energy-inefficient housing to form condominiums and undertake overhauls to improve their energy efficiency, rather than finance houses who are already doing well in that regard. To improve on such selection issues, the program could change the co-financing proportions, making participation more beneficial to old houses with condominiums, e.g. 80/20 – for old and 60/40 – for new condominiums.
Second, the new houses with condominiums that participate in the program might be in a much worse state before participation than those that do not. Program part-taking could make participants catch up to the average level of energy-efficiency (or perhaps do slightly better). If this is the case, the program fulfills its function in the sense that it targets the most energy-inefficient houses.
Government Policies That Should Be Changed
Above, we argue that the formation of condominiums leads to efficiency gains in energy use and cuts utility costs for dwellers. Given the design of the overhaul co-financing program, the Kyiv city council seems to recognize these benefits as well. However, there is a range of government policies currently in place that discourage people from condominium formation.
For example, there are cases when the government finances 100% of overhaul costs using a subvention ("subvention for socio-economic development"). In 2020, 17 houses in Kyiv got overhaul expenses funded by this type of subvention. At the same time, 85 houses that participated in the co-financing competition did not receive any state funding (there were 100 winners among 185 participants).
Considering that this type of subvention predominantly finances non-condominiums, we argue that this policy creates the wrong incentives. Dwellers will likely refrain from forming condominiums in the hope of eventually being selected for an overhaul fully financed by the state, instead of forming condominium and getting only part of overhauls expenses covered (70% of the overhaul funding if winning co-finance program competition, and no funding otherwise).
In addition, this subvention typically has a "pork-barrel" nature since it is often allocated to the constituencies of the ruling party's MPs. State financed overhauls are often used as an advertisement tool to get popular support. This creates an additional problem in the sense that subvention is targeted to politically loyal regions and not necessarily to regions in need of support.
Along this line of reasoning, we suggest that this pork-barrel subvention should be cancelled and housing-overhauls should instead be funded through co-financing programs. The government should implement programs similar to the "70/30" and further encourage people to adopt condominium ownership.
Motivated by the common perception that utility costs are excessively high, we study one possible way of reducing the utility bill – condominium housing management.
Our analysis shows that old houses with condominiums pay 22% less for heating compared to old non-condominiums. For new houses, we find that condominiums pay 29% less in heating costs than non-condominiums. In addition, old houses with condominiums that participate in Kyiv's co-financing program pay 15% less than other old condominiums. That is, condominium formation combined with the co-financing program could save more than one-third of a resident's heating costs.
Our analysis suggests the following policy implications:
Condominiums have a positive effect on energy efficiency, and utility cost savings, and should thus be promoted to the population as a preferable form of house management practice.
State and municipal governments should provide incentives for condominium formation through, e.g., overhaul co-financing programs. Other state-provided forms of overhaul financing, such as pork-barrel subvention, should be cancelled.
Co-financing programs should combine better targeting (e.g., to those houses that are in greater need of overhaul) with sufficient incentives for condominium formation.

And sometimes it's nice to fight snark with snark. I try to refrain, really I do, but... not today. Have you met my evil twin?
For what it's worth, she offers a few thoughts on the cushy freelance writing life, below. By the way, if you ever hear me pop off something along these lines to an unsuspecting person who gives me that look and a syrupy, "Oh, it must be nice to work at home," it wasn't me. It was her.
1. Yeah, being my own collections department is awesome. Whining so totally suits me.
2. Ditto for handling my own procurement, office equipment maintenance and repair.
4. Those constant endorsements from community groups really rock. Especially ones that begin, "We thought you'd be the perfect person for this because of your schedule, you know, since you're available all the time."
5. What happens in my office...stays in my office. Well OK I'll dish. Just last night I got all hot and bothered... wrestling with a printer jam at 11pm.
6. Convenient? I'll say. It's like I never leave the office!
7. You know how it's fun to have Superbowl office pools, donuts at the office or a laugh with a coworker? I don't.
I think my evil twin's point is, the grass is almost always greener. I guess my point is, while freelancing or contracting from home may look like a cushy job, it's a job. So if I seem a little snarly when you drop by my house your day off, it's because I'm at the office.
Design Taxi recently ran an article offering solutions to many of my complaints. Maybe I'll get around to reading it when the boss gets off my back.
Is this sweet, or is this a reason to tweet? Yes. Yes it is.
Thank you Stephen Fry (via @rolliewillams ) for loving words enough to make (and share) a 6-plus minute video even a videophobe like me can love.
While Fry and many others have built a reputation on the stern-English-teacher sort of language admonitions it's not because we/they hate the errant use of words. It's because we/they love language. Because it communicates, punctuates, invigorates, and to do so sometimes it must innovate. Itself.
Write on, modern language-screwups, write on.
I actually lose sleep over the "death of newspapers" trend, and admit my perspective is skewed by that.
I find it ironic that NYT, Washington Post, and some other distinguished dinosaurs are apparently leading the way in developing a new media industry called "content marketing."
Weren't newspapers the original "content" industry? and can this new iteration of "content" save the news?

This webcam is located in the beautiful city of Zadar. The fifth largest city of Croatia and an unbelievably charming as a true Mediterranean city, Zadar meets its guests with an absolutely unique atmosphere and spirit of the ancient times and civilizations. When you walk down the beautiful streets of Zadar, you can see and feel the influence of the Romans, Venetians, Habsburgs and Italians.
Our webcam captures the pedestrian bridge between Zadar and Vostarnica district. This is one of the oldest parts of the city. Today tourists can find many architectural and historical monuments hidden in the shadow of its narrow streets. Vostarnica has had its own port since the middle ages and even today you can see many yachts and boats moored fast to its quay.


Costs really do matter. Patrick Convey on how high charges can impact your investment returns. Ensure you are aware of the effect of investment fees on your own portfolios.
Human beings are poorly wired to be good investors. We have many deep-seated biases and behaviours that, while once useful to survive in the wild, do us a great disservice when investing.
One area of weakness is our poor grasp of the exponential impact of compounding that can work both for and against us.
Imagine three different portfolios that deliver returns of one, three and five per cent per year after inflation – but before other costs – over a period of 30 years: £100,000 invested in each would result in a growth of purchasing power to around £135,000, £240,000 and £430,000 respectively.
Seemingly small differences in the compound rates of return turn into large differences in terms of financial outcomes. That is one of the great positives of a disciplined and patient approach to investing – small returns turn into big numbers, given time.
On the other side of the coin, costs, when compounded over time, eat away at these market returns to a far greater degree than many investors imagine.


I can't add anything to this. Enjoy.
All of us here at Numinous Books were delighted to learn of the movement of your spirit in favor of the publication, almost fifty years after your passing, of what you called The Red Book or Liber Novus, the "New Book." The Bollingen Foundation had long since completed the publication of your Collected Works. The matter of your unpublished work fell to the Philemon Foundation, in collaboration with your heirs. The Red Book was the largest piece of unfinished business, one that you were reluctant to present to the general public in your lifetime, but which was by no means a secret in the Jungian community; elements of it were already in limited circulation. We are pleased to report that we have succeeded in inspiring the proper parties among the living to bring this work to the light of day. Publication was preceded by a tasteful but effective publicity campaign, including the inevitable viral marketing.
During the course of your life from 1875 to 1961, you devised a model of therapy that required the reconciliation of the conscious mind with elements of the psyche of which the individual might not be aware or which were found intolerable. In this project you were at first Sigmund Freud's protégé and collaborator, but later a sort of ideological adversary. Like Freud, you held that some of the troublesome psychic material could be experiences that an individual has repressed, has tried not to know. You went beyond Freud, however, by insisting on the existence of supra-personal psychic elements, of a collective unconscious in fact, with which the ego must be reconciled for its own peace and ability to function in the human world.
Your view of history was the fundamentally Stoic vision of Eternal Return. You shared the view with Nietzsche that everything external has already happened before, but perhaps avoided the nihilist implications of that idea with the intuition that the internal is always new. Be that as it may, you had quite a lot of subtle influence on the apparent novelties of the external 20th-century. Certainly you have had more influence than did esoteric Tradition, whose precepts have many points of contact with your own but whose exponents charge you with spirit-destroying congress with the dead. The happy accident, if you believed in accidents, of your birth in neutral Switzerland may have been no small advantage in the first half of the 20th century (unlike poor Freud, with his base in disaster-prone Austria), if only because it allowed your work to assume the disinterested tone of a species of the perennial philosophy. Many of your century's most interesting artists and writers were influenced by your ideas, even if they were not necessarily actually Jungians. The same might be said of your connections with the Anglophone intelligence services, notably your long association with the Dulles family.
The Red Book is most important, perhaps, because it will clarify the identity of your teaching as a post-religious apocalyptic doctrine, a genre in which the 19th and 20th centuries were peculiarly rich. As you tell us yourself, you created the book because of visions and presentiments of disaster and carnage you began to experience around 1913. At first you supposed these to be precursors of an impending personal breakdown. When the First World War began, however, you understood them to reflect disruptions in the collective unconscious. The World War itself was only the outer manifestation of that inner turbulence. The commotions of the 20th century were caused by the failure of the Christian psyche to assimilate evil. Consequently, evil grew in the psychic shadow of Europe, whence it was projected onto national and class enemies.
All of this, you would explain with due tact in any suitable venue, was just a consequence of the passing of the Christian Age. Sometimes you expressed this change of dispensation in terms of the ending of the astrological age of Pisces, and sometimes in terms of the end of the Second Age of Joachim of Fiore. In any case, the myth of the God who saved the world by assuming the suffering of all individual men was losing its hold on the European mind. This meant disaster, since whatever novelties might be victorious in the conscious mind of Europe, Europeans still had a Christian psyche. The ghosts of Europe therefore could not rest, a proposition you showed little sign of meaning metaphorically. Your Red Book, like the Liber Inducens ad Evangelicam Aeternam of the Fraticelli, would thus be the evangel of the New Age. But let us review the structure and content of The Red Book itself now.
One of your oft-cited principles is the phenomenon of enantiodromia, which means that the excess of any force or tendency generates its opposite. We see that in the publication of your book: in an age when physical books are disappearing into cyberspace and their contents being viewed on handy plastic tablets, this book at about a foot wide by a foot-and-a-half long is so large and heavy that it can be read comfortably only if mounted on special furniture. The redness of the more informal title comes from the cover of the original. From 1914 to 1930 you recorded your dreams and visionary stories in a sort of italic book-hand, punctuated by illuminations and other graphics. These range in quality and style from naïve outsider art to intriguing mosaic and geometrical abstractions. Anyone familiar with your work has already seen some of these images, but The Red Book could launch your belated reputation as an artist. The graphics and even the text are almost devoid of explicit sexual references, by the way. Freud would have something to say about that.
The bulk of the published volume consists of your own illuminated calligraphic volume, divided into "Liber Primus" and "Liber Secundus," the latter much longer than the former. The single largest item that does not consist of photographic reproductions is the English translation. (The German version of the book, incidentally, which presumably has a transcription rather than a transliteration, is a bit briefer but costs twice as much.) The critical additions include a biographical sketch in which you would find nothing awkward, as well as an able description of your system by the principal editor and translator, Sonu Shamdasani. The book ends with a final section, "Scrutinies," including the previously published "Seven Sermons to the Dead." There is an Epilogue containing some short pieces in your usual academic style. They and Scrutinies give a very detailed description of the cosmology underlying your psychological system, including the theology, or metaphysics, or whatever you prefer, concern the God Abraxas.
Sixth night. My soul leads me in the desert, in the desert of my own self. I did not think that my soul is a desert, a barren, hot desert, dusty and without drink. The journey leads through hot sand, slowly wading without a visible goal to hope for? How eerie is this wasteland. It seems to me that the way leads so far away from mankind. I take my way step by step, and do not know how long my journey will last.
Slowly, the throne of God ascends into empty space, followed by the holy trinity, and finally Satan himself. He resists and clings to his beyond. He will not let go. The upper world is too chilly for him.
Jungians to this day have a sense of humor not always to be found among Freudians. Or indeed elsewhere.
The reconciliation of psychic opposites, of instinct and reason, of male and female, of good and evil, occurs by creating a conscious relationship with the collective psychic structures. These are the archetypes. In their most familiar forms, they turn up as the story templates for characters in popular fiction, from the young hero who rises from obscurity to save the world, to helpful talking animals (the latter recently tend to be helpful talking robots). The archetypes are also the foundations of the great characters of myth.
Throughout the book, but especially in Liber Primus, you talk to your soul. The soul is revealed to you by the cultivation of your anima, the minor-key female side of yourself, which is also a manifestation of the more basic reality of Eros. (Women, of course, have an animus.) The soul links the personal with the collective; it becomes for the ego the symbol of the psyche. You speak also to the Logos, enigmatic reason, which has its own motives and its own life, but which it is a necessity of mental health to reconcile with Eros. You remind us that the archetypes are multiform. The pair of Logos and Eros appear frequently in myth and fiction, right down to stories that involve a mad scientist and his daughter. In this book, they appear at first as Elijah and Salome, who of course do not appear in the Bible together, but the venerable Elijah seemed to you a better representation of Logos than would John the Baptist. The pair also appear as the more or less historical couple, Simon Magus and Helen; the former rescued the latter from prostitution because she incarnated Sophia, divine Wisdom. Your mature image of this relationship is Philemon and Baucis, who appear in a Greek myth about the happy fate of those who offer hospitality to the Gods unknowingly. ("God" is almost always capitalized in this book, by the way; an echo of the German practice with all nouns, perhaps). Philemon became an important figure in your life, almost a personal prophet. The Red Book uses the Greek spelling of the name: ΦΙΛΗΜΩΝ.
Conventionally religious people might object that what you teach your followers to do would be the worst kind of prayer. Prayer, however, is not what is intended. This process of active imagination that you use in interacting with the archetypes is familiar to many writers of fiction. You solidify psychic entities with whom you may then converse like a novelist talking to his characters. To the extent the characters are the forms of activated archetypes, however, they are not wholly of your devising, and they are not entirely under your control.
The collective unconscious as you describe it is not merely a standard unconscious that everyone has, like a standard pulmonary system. Rather, it is a networking the whole human race, present and, to some degree, past. Thus, you understood that the assassination of poor Archduke Ferdinand was not merely an attack on a high-status person, but part of a general movement of the European spirit to kill the hero within.
You popularized the hypothesis that the collective unconscious is exterior to individual humans in uncanny ways. Coincidences occur, the famous "synchronous events," when the archetypes are activated, thereby enabling them to make an impression on an otherwise inattentive ego. The collective unconscious, as you were never slow to acknowledge, bears a family resemblance to Immanuel Kant's "noumenon," the dark subsurface of the knowable world, a darkness where causality does not apply. Physicists of the caliber of Wolfgang Pauli have attempted to explain the phenomenon, even if its reality has never been satisfactorily demonstrated except to those who have experienced it. The "quantum entanglement" of the Copenhagen Interpretation of quantum mechanics is still sometimes mentioned in this connection. That is hardly surprising; the Copenhagen Interpretation is just Kant without the Hilbert space.
Objective observers, if there are such creatures, would be forgiven for suspecting that your invocations of science were just a patina of modernity that you applied to a system that you knew quite well was a kind of magic. Magic of some sort is necessary to deal with the collective unconscious, though even magic cannot control it. The collective unconscious deploys that weapon first, of course. It appears as the uncanny and at first glance inexplicable glamour that for your patients attached to certain people and things. Jungian analysis is about coming to terms with that glamour, especially if it inhibits life and growth.
For your true adepts, the point of all this is "individuation," the formation of the Self around which the elements of the psyche revolve like the planets about the sun. The Self is emphatically not the ego. Should the ego identify with the Self, or with any of the archetypes, it becomes divine in a pathological sense.
The religion of the New Age follows the Pleroma's tendency toward individuation. The collective savior is no longer possible because each person must become his own savior. The soul can no longer identify with the collective Christ archetype.
Late in the book, you, or the archetypes who speak through you, reveal that the essential stuff of reality, or the perfect vacuum in which reality shimmers, is the Pleroma, the fullness. It is simple, in the sense of perfectly uniform; a sea of unrealized possibility. The first emanation of the Pleroma is Abraxas, the lord of the material world. He is a time God: his name is a nonsense word that simply incorporates the numerological value "365." He is neither good nor evil, but effective cause of the horror of history and its wonder. His creations are God (or "Helios," as you prefer) and the devil. Abraxas should not be worshipped, you caution, but neither can he be neglected. Within each psyche, your readers are promised, the Self can become Abraxas to the rest of the psyche's contents, including to the ego.
Readers will be confused, as may have been your intent, about whether everyone can or should seek individuation. Many people, perhaps all, seek that degree of psychological integration needed to function socially. Maybe individuation, which links the personality to cosmic forces, was for an elite? Those who achieve it would have a numinous quality marking them as unusually substantial persons. That is as may be, but surely you must question now whether your prophecy of a new spiritual regime has been fulfilled in any but an ironic sense.
You did correctly intuit that the later 20th century would see a revulsion against the collectivism that had increasingly characterized Western Civilization since the middle of the preceding century. However, the libertarian trend has been notably antinomian. Far from embracing depth psychology, it has been characterized by an ebbing of the psychic sea rather than a deepening. As for conventional religion, that too has suffered from the general desiccation, but your work has not served to drive people from traditional religion, or even in many cases to provide a spiritual alternative. Rather, it has served as a bridge to systematic spiritual examination for people who otherwise would not have been able to approach the question seriously. People who do this are likely to find the transcendent God at least as interesting as the immanent God. Often enough, they find that not all spiritual entities are really the fauna of the psyche, even of the collective psyche.
That is none of our affair, of course. We just publish this stuff.

Robert Mugabe, the Anti-hero
Once hailed as a revolutionary leader for his role in the struggle against the Ian Smith white racist government, Robert Gabriel Mugabe is now seen as a brutal and despicable dictator. For some months now, particularly since the first round of voting three months ago, Zimbabwe and its leader, Mugabe, had been very much in the news. {{more}} Increasing violence in the run up to Friday's elections and the decision by Morgan Tsvangirai to pull out of the contest have brought matters to a climax. A United Nations Security Council resolution condemning the violence and strong statements from leaders of neighbouring countries have shown how much the tables have turned against the Zimbabwean strong man. Even Nelson Mandela, now in his 90th year, has been forced to speak out against him, referring to the 'tragic failure of leadership'. There is now a growing call for the postponement of Friday's elections.
For some time now the rest of the world had been hoping that leaders of Zimbabwe's neighbours would have stepped in to bring some closure to a situation that was seriously getting out of hand. The South African leader, Thabo Mbeki, was supposed to have been leading regional mediation efforts but appeared to have lost all credibility in his efforts to bring about what he considered a negotiated settlement. He seemed to have been pussyfooting on the issue even suggesting that there was no crisis. Recently we have had strong statements from leading figures in Southern Africa. Jacob Zuma, the African National Congress leader has recognised that the situation has gotten out of control. Bishop Desmond Tutu has openly criticised Mbeki's role. A recent news report quoted Tutu as saying that Zimbabweans were not satisfied with his handling of the crisis, suggesting that he 'chose to remain silent even when Zimbabwe's crisis was at fever pitch'. Leaders of Swaziland, Tanzania and Angola have publicly stated that conditions existing in Zimbabwe were not conducive to free and fair elections and the South African Trade Union Confederation has committed itself to isolate Mugabe.
The Zimbabwean leader had used the harsh criticisms coming from the United States and Britain to play the imperialist and race card but with his black brothers and sisters from the region lending their voices and especially those of Mandela and Tutu, he will be hard pressed to follow through with that position. He had reacted strongly to calls from Washington and London by saying that "They can shout as loud as they like from Washington and London and any other quarter. Our people and only our people will decide." What he means by our people is obviously not clear. He can only be referring to those whom he pulled under his wings by giving them the freedom to invade white farm lands. The Opposition Movement for Democratic Change won the recent parliamentary elections and Morgan Tsvangirai had won the first round of the presidential election by 48 to 43 percent, the figures of course coming after a very bizarre period in which the results were announced weeks after polling. There is therefore a significant section of the population that is opposed to the rule of Robert Mugabe. And who could blame them. The country has an inflation rate of 1.6 million percent. It is difficult to imagine what this means. Obviously the Zimbabwean currency has no value and the people are suffering bitterly. Why does Mugabe want to continue? What does he expect to do? What are the options, especially with the United Nations taking the position it has taken and most countries in the world being prepared to condemn his regime?
Of course Mugabe is able to play on the historical reality that allowed 4,500 white farmers to control about 50 percent of the farm land, leaving the other 12 million mainly black people to share the remainder. And perhaps the British Government has to take some criticism about the whole affair. Mugabe, however, has at different times used the strategy of farm invasion in an effort to mobilise rural support in the country. He has been defiant in the face of criticism coming from different quarters. Only God, he said, can remove him from power. In any event, he was clearly not prepared to accept the results of the election if they went against him. He was firm in stating, "We will never allow an event like an election to reverse our independence, our sovereignty." Those opposed to him he attempts to paint as puppets not only of the white farmers but of those who want to stifle the sovereignty and destroy the independence of Zimbabwe. So he is determined to remain in power even if he destroys the country in the process.
I might have missed it, but with the exception of a statement coming from Jamaica, I cannot recall any reactions from CARICOM leaders and certainly not from the regional body. One expects that at their next summit after the rest of the world have stated their positions our regional leaders would have their say. I was somewhat struck by the editorial in the Jamaica Observer newspaper on Tuesday, June 24. The editor was disappointed with the decision of the Opposition not to contest the run-off election. It went on to say, "…we had hoped that Mr. Tsvangirai would have endured the state-sponsored intimidation and violence being unleashed on his supporters and himself to contest."
This is indeed a strange position to take given the brutality that has overtaken the country. As I write this column, Tsvangirai has sought refuge in the Dutch Embassy. There are reports of over 80 deaths, some two thousand injured and over 30,000 have been forced to flee from their districts. Some of the leading members of the party are threatened and restrictions are placed on groups that were supposed to have monitored the elections. Why the Observer would want the leader of the MDC to put the lives of his supporters at risk beats me. Statements coming from election officials are to the effect that the elections to be held on Friday would go ahead as scheduled. They are insisting that Tsvangirai's name would remain on the ballot papers, claiming that the decision not to contest came too late. So the once hero Mugabe would be declared victor in an election in which he is really the only candidate. No one outside of his circle would accept the results. What happens after is left to be seen for no country can continue to exist with the kind of inflation rate that has overtaken Zimbabwe. A man once hailed as a hero would eventually bow out as a political monster of the worst kind. What a stubborn man! Is this what power does?

BREAKING: Chak De India director Shimit Amin to make a COMEBACK with a YRF production!
A list of top 10 or top 5 best sports films of Bollywood is not complete without the mention of Chak De India. Released in 2007, it is still remembered for its taut execution and treatment by director Shimit Amin, and of course for the performances of all, including Shah Rukh Khan. At the box office too, it emerged as huge grosser of the year and made Shimit a force to reckon with. After all, just before Chak De India, he had wowed audiences with the 2004 action thriller Ab Tak Chhappan, starring Nana Patekar. And post Chak De India, he impressed audiences once again with Ranbir Kapoor-starrer Rocket Singh – Salesman Of The Year.
Rocket Singh – Salesman Of The Year released in 2009, after which Shimit Amin never made a film again. But if reports are to be believed, he's all set to make a comeback. A source close to the project says, "Shimit Amin has a script ready and he thinks this is the right time get the film on floors. Aditya Chopra's Yash Raj Films (YRF), who had backed Chak De India and Rocket Singh – Salesman Of The Year, will be producing this film."
The source further adds, "Yash Raj Films is completing 50 years in 2020. As part of the celebrations, they'll be announcing some exciting and big-budget films to mark the occasion. Shimit Amin's next would be one of those films that'll be proudly launched by Aditya Chopra and team. They have immense trust in his potential and are extremely happy with his earlier two films with their esteemed banner."
However, there's no news on the film's cast and title. Even the genre is not known. The source tells, "With most directors, one can guess what kind of film it will be since they often operate in one kind of genre. But when it comes to Shimit Amin, you just can't assume anything. All his three films were drastically diverse. Ab Tak Chhappan was about underworld and Mumbai police. Chak De India dealt with hockey while Rocket Singh – Salesman Of The Year was one-of-its-kind-film on corporate structure. Moreover, YRF have fiercely kept all details under wraps. So it's next to impossible to find out any more details. What is confirmed, however, is that Shimit Amin's next with YRF is on."
Post Rocket Singh – Salesman Of The Year, Shimit Amin was also seen in the capacity of the editor on Mira Nair's 2013 film The Reluctant Fundamentalist.

As a Johns Hopkins University medical student, Eliza Chakravarty, M.D., heard the name Mary Betty Stevens on a near-daily basis. Although she never met Stevens, Chakravarty's professors often spoke of their late colleague with great respect and admiration.
Decades later, Stevens' name is again shaping the OMRF physician-scientist's career.
On Monday, Chakravarty received the Mary Betty Stevens Young Investigator Prize, awarded annually by the Lupus Foundation of America to a researcher in the early stages of his or her career who has produced extraordinary achievements in lupus research. Chakravarty accepted the award at the American College of Rheumatology Annual Scientific Meeting in Boston, Mass.
Chakravarty was selected for the recognition largely for her work on the immunological response to pregnancy outcomes among women with lupus. Her research focuses on better understanding why autoimmune diseases can behave so differently during pregnancy.
She and her colleagues attempt to identify biomarkers that may better predict pregnancy complications like preeclampsia, prematurity and fetal growth restriction so that physicians can tailor treatments for the risks involved in each individual pregnancy.
A Baltimore, Md., native, Chakravarty joined OMRF in 2011 after spending 11 years as a rheumatology fellow and faculty member at the Stanford University School of Medicine. OMRF offered a unique opportunity to work directly with patients in the clinic so she could research issues on a case-by-case basis.
Chakravarty was one of three honorees at the annual meeting. Other awardees were Dr. George C. Tsokos of Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston and Dr. Jane E. Salmon of the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York City.

← When Will The Council's Bin Deal Be Implemented?
Many thanks to all the Edgbaston residents who came to our Ward Forum meeting at the beautiful Martineau Gardens this evening.
It was the first of these meetings for this municipal year, and it was the first time we have visited this venue for a Ward Meeting.
The gardens were looking pristine, we had almost a full house, and a lovely room complete with wood burning stove. Topics discussed ranged from the proposed new development on the Edgbaston Country Ground car park (which was the main item on the agenda), Labour's proposed Clean Air Zone, the Pershore Road junction, and a damaged wall, to bus changes in the area.
Many thanks to everyone who came along and to Martineau Gardens for hosting the event.


Here is your newest "Little Buddy." Gilligan came to us looking for a new home at the ripe young age of 8. He has stolen our hearts already. He does well on a leash, he simply enjoys the great outdoors and a place to rest when done. He is one sharp dressed man and we have to give thanks to The Furmont crew who spent the afternoon giving him cuddles, a place to play, and this awesome new do all out of their goodness of their hearts. Did we mention he loves his new tie and toy. He thinks that the shelter isn't all that bad but is looking for a new home.
He has lived with a family that has young children and has been known to mount them on occasion. Although this is not ideal behaviour we feel that getting neutered will help with this issue, it is not something that he does to older children or adults. Because of this we feel that a home with older children would be best. Due to his laid back, happy behaviour we think he would be ok in a home with cats as well.
Gilligan needs all the help he can get he said as the younger dogs seem to get the most treats and attention at the shelter. If you are interested in adopting Gilligan, please click on the ADOPT button below to fill out an adoption application.
