Press Release: African Countries Launch AFR100 to Restore 100 Million Hectares of Land (05.12.2015)
Commitments from 10 countries announced at the Global Landscapes Forum
PARIS (December 6, 2015)—African countries launched AFR100 (African Forest Landscape Restoration Initiative), a pan-African, country-led effort to restore 100 million hectares (386 thousand square miles) of degraded and deforested landscapes by 2030. The AFR100 target of 100 million hectares has been endorsed by the African Union. So far 10 African countries have agreed to join AFR100 and committed at least 31.7 million hectares of land for forest landscape restoration. AFR100 partners are earmarking more than USD $1 billion in development finance and more than $540 million in private sector impact investment to support restoration activities.
The announcement was made during the Global Landscapes Forum at the Conference of Parties (COP21) in Paris, where forest landscape restoration is a key ingredient of the global movement to adapt to and mitigate climate change. Commitments made through AFR100 build on significant climate pledges made by many African countries to support a binding global climate agreement.
"Restoring our landscapes brings prosperity, security and opportunity," said Dr. Vincent Biruta, Minister of Natural Resources in Rwanda. "With forest landscape restoration we've seen agricultural yields rise and farmers in our rural communities diversify their livelihoods and improve their well-being. Forest landscape restoration is not just an environmental strategy, it is an economic and social development strategy as well."
For the first time, AFR100 brings together political leadership with an ambitious package of financial and technical resources to support a large-scale forest landscape restoration effort across Africa. Nine financial partners and 10 technical assistance providers have pledged support, led by the New Partnership for Africa's Development (NEPAD Agency), Germany's Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), and World Resources Institute (WRI).
"The scale of these new restoration commitments is unprecedented," said Wanjira Mathai, Chair of the Green Belt Movement and daughter of Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Wangari Maathai. "I have seen restoration in communities both large and small across Africa, but the promise of a continent-wide movement is truly inspiring. Restoring landscapes will empower and enrich rural communities while providing downstream benefits to those in cities. Everybody wins. "
Countries that have agreed to join the AFR100 initiative include:
• Democratic Republic of Congo | 8 million hectares
• Ethiopia | 15 million hectares
• Kenya | Committed, but finalizing hectare target
• Liberia | 1 million hectares
• Madagascar | Committed, but finalizing hectare target
• Malawi | Committed, but finalizing hectare target
• Niger | 3.2 million hectares
• Rwanda | 2 million hectares
• Togo | Committed, but finalizing hectare target
• Uganda | 2.5 million hectares
AFR100 builds on the climate commitments made by African countries. So far, 13 of the INDCs (Intended Nationally Determined Contributions) submitted by African countries include restoration, conservation of standing forests, or "climate-smart" agriculture. According to WRI analysis, following through on the commitments would cumulatively reduce emissions by 1.2 Gt CO2eq over the next 10 years, or 36 percent of Africa's annual emissions and 0.25 percent of global emissions.
"Restoration is really Africa's gift to the world," said Dr. Andrew Steer, president and CEO, World Resources Institute. "As the world forges a climate agreement in Paris, African countries— which bear the least historic responsibility for climate change– are showing leadership with ambitious pledges to restore land. These countries are well on their way to meet the goal of restoring 100 million hectares of land, which will help sequester carbon and bring economic benefits to low-income, rural communities. These African leaders are turning their words into action and making a real contribution to respond to the global threat of climate change."
AFR100 recognizes the benefits that forests and trees can provide in African landscapes: improved soil fertility and food security, greater availability and quality of water resources, reduced desertification, increased biodiversity, green jobs, economic growth, and increased capacity for climate change resilience and mitigation. Forest landscape restoration has the potential to improve livelihoods, especially for women. For example, 20 years ago, women in southern Niger spent an average of 2.5 hours daily collecting firewood, which was scarce in the degraded landscape. Now they prune on-farm trees saving two hours a day, time that can be spent on other income generating activities.
Commitments announced through AFR100 also support the Bonn Challenge, a global target to bring 150 million hectares of land into restoration by 2020 adopted in Germany in 2011, the New York Declaration on Forests that extends that challenge to 350 million hectares by 2030, and the African Resilient Landscapes Initiative (ARLI), an initiative to promote integrated landscape management with the goal of adapting to and mitigating climate change. With these new partners, the Bonn Challenge process has surpassed the 100 m hectare mark, on track to meet its goal well ahead of the 2020 target date.
AFR100 builds on a strong tradition of successful forest landscape restoration in Africa. In Ethiopia's Tigray region, local communities have already restored over 1 million hectares, making the land more drought-resistant. In Niger, farmers have increased the number of on-farm trees across 5 million hectares of agricultural landscapes, improving food security for 2.5 million people. AFR100 will provide a forum for countries and communities to share knowledge and resources to achieve restoration at a greater scale.
"We know that restoration works for Africa. We've seen it work in countries as diverse as Malawi, Ethiopia, and Mali," said Dr. Ibrahim Assane Mayaki, CEO of NEPAD and former Prime Minister of Niger. "But we need to scale up restoration across the whole continent- more than 700 million hectares of land in Africa have potential for restoration. AFR100 provides a platform to work together more effectively to accelerate the achievement of restoration successes to benefit tens of millions of people who are currently searching for ways to adapt to climate change and improve their well-being."
AFR100 will help to translate ambitious commitments into action with support from private sector investors, foundations, development banks, and bilateral and multilateral funders. AFR100 will leverage a variety of financing, including grants, equity investments, loans, risk management guarantees and funds for specific interventions.
So far, AFR100 partners have set forth over USD $1 billion of development financing:
World Bank: USD $1 billion in investment in 14 African countries by 2030, as part of the Africa Climate Business Plan to support Africa's climate resilient and low carbon development
Germany's Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) is providing support for the development of the AFR100 initiative
Impact investors have already earmarked USD $546.5 million for restoration under AFR100:
Ecoplanet Bamboo: USD $175 million by 2020
Sustainable Forest Investments – Netherlands: USD $150m by 2030
Terra Global Capital: USD $100 million by 2030
Green World Ventures: USD $65 million by 2020
Moringa Partnership: USD $56.5 million by 2030
NatureVest (impact investment arm of the Nature Conservancy)
Permian Global
Through AFR100, we expect to trigger one of the largest investments in forest landscape restoration the world has ever seen," said H.E. Dr. Gerd Müller, Federal Minister for Economic Cooperation and Development, Germany. "This investment is vital for empowering local communities to scale up the inspiring restoration successes we've seen in Africa over the last decade."
In addition to new financing, a coalition of organizations will provide technical assistance on a wide range of activities, including the mapping of restoration opportunities, securing further financing, and implementing restoration efforts on the ground. Partners include World Resources Institute (WRI), Clinton Foundation, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), Jane Goodall Institute (JGI), Kijani, New Partnership for Africa's Development (NEPAD Agency), The Landscapes for People, Food and Nature Initiative (LPFN), and The Nature Conservancy (TNC) and The Greenbelt Movement.

2016/169/AFR: World Bank Group unveils $16 Billion Africa Climate Business Plan to Tackle Urgent Climate Challenges (24.11.2015)
One third of funds expected to come from Bank's fund for the poorest countries
WASHINGTON, November 24, 2015—The World Bank Group today unveiled a new plan that calls for $16 billion in funding to help African people and countries adapt to climate change and build up the continent's resilience to climate shocks.
Titled Accelerating Climate-Resilient and Low-Carbon Development, the Africa Climate Business Plan will be presented at COP21, the global climate talks in Paris, on November 30. It lays out measures to boost the resilience of the continent's assets – its people, land, water, and cities – as well as other moves including boosting renewable energy and strengthening early warning systems.
"Sub-Saharan Africa is highly vulnerable to climate shocks, and our research shows that could have far-ranging impact — on everything from child stunting and malaria to food price increases and droughts," said World Bank Group President Jim Yong Kim. "This plan identifies concrete steps that African governments can take to ensure that their countries will not lose hard-won gains in economic growth and poverty reduction, and they can offer some protection from climate change."
Per current estimates, the plan says that the region requires $5-10 billion per year to adapt to global warming of 2°C.
The World Bank and the United Nations Environment Programme estimate that the cost of managing climate resilience will continue to rise to $20-50 billion by mid-century, and closer to $100 billion in the event of a 4°C warming.
Of the $16.1 billion that the ambitious plan proposes for fast-tracking climate adaptation, some $5.7 billion is expected from the International Development Association (IDA), the arm of the World Bank Group that supports the poorest countries. About $2.2 billion is expected from various climate finance instruments, $2.0 billion from others in the development community, $3.5 billion from the private sector, and $0.7 billion from domestic sources, with an additional $2.0 billion needed to deliver on the plan.
"The Africa Climate Business Plan spells out a clear path to invest in the continent's urgent climate needs and to fast-track the required climate finance to ensure millions of people are protected from sliding into extreme poverty," explains Makhtar Diop, World Bank Group Vice President for Africa. "While adapting to climate change and mobilizing the necessary resources remain an enormous challenge, the plan represents a critical opportunity to support a priority set of climate-resilient initiatives in Africa."
The plan will boost the region's ability to adapt to a changing climate while reducing greenhouse emissions, focusing on a number of concrete actions. It identifies a dozen priority areas for action that will enhance Africa's capacity to adapt to the adverse consequences of climate variation and change.
The first area for action aims to boost the resilience of the continent's assets. These comprise natural capital (landscapes, forests, agricultural land, inland water bodies, oceans); physical capital (cities, transport infrastructure, physical assets in coastal areas); and human and social capital (where efforts should include improving social protection for the people most vulnerable to climate shocks, and addressing climate-related drivers of migration).
The second area for action focuses on powering resilience, including opportunities for scaling up low-carbon energy sources. In addition to helping mitigate climate change, these activities offer considerable resilience benefits, as societies with inadequate access to energy are also more vulnerable to climate shocks.
And the third area for action will enable resilience by providing essential data, information and decision-making tools for climate-resilient development across sectors. This includes strengthening hydro-met systems at the regional and country levels, and building capacity to plan and design climate-resilient investments.
"The plan is a 'win-win' for all especially the people in Africa who have to adapt to climate change and work to mitigate its impacts," said Jamal Saghir, the World Bank's Senior Regional Adviser for Africa. "We look forward to working with African governments and development partners, including the private sector, to move this plan forward and deliver climate smart development."
The Africa Climate Business Plan reflects contributions and inputs from a wide variety of partners with whom the Bank is already collaborating on the ground, in a coordinated effort to increase Africa's resilience to climate variability and change. The plan aims to help raise awareness and accelerate resource mobilization for the region's critical climate-resilience and low-carbon initiatives.
The plan warns that unless decisive action is taken, climate variability and change could seriously jeopardize the region's hard-won development gains and its aspirations for further growth and poverty reduction. And it comes in the wake of Bank analysis which indicates climate change could push up to 43 million more Africans into poverty by 2030.

Acai, it seems has become the new superfood, gaining popularity in recent years. It is loaded with antioxidants, amino acids and omega fats to fight free radicals and promote longevity.
With a delicate, slightly sweet, almost chocolatey taste, it's tailor made for smoothies. In fact acai smoothies are one of the easiest ways of consuming this exotic fruit.
But what is acai? Acai is a small blue-purple berry found in the Amazon rainforest of Brazil. It grows on palm trees ranging from fifty to eighty feet tall. The tree produces large bunches of edible berries, that when ripe, are dark blue-purple and about the size of a large blueberry. The fruit consists of a thin layer of edible pulp surrounding a large seed. But because those berries are low in sugar and acid they are extremely perishable. Once the fruit ripens, it must be picked, processed, then flash-frozen or freeze-dried within 24 hours of being picked. Otherwise the fruit oxidizes, turns brown and loses all its nutrients. So, unless you happen to live in Brazil, finding the fresh variety is almost impossible.
But there are other options: freeze-dried powder, acai juice and frozen acai pulp.
Freeze-dried powder is probably the most readily available and easiest to use in smoothies. It has a long shelf life and can be kept in the freezer for added shelf life. Just add 1 tablespoon to your smoothies.
Frozen acai berry pulp is the healthiest as it is the least processed and the closest to the natural product. This gives you the added benefits of natural fiber. Acai pulp is the fleshy part of the fruit. The fruit is washed and soaked in water to soften the outer skin. The large seed is then extracted. The remaining pulp is quickly frozen to retain all the essential nutrients.
There are many brands of acai berry juice and some are better than others. When buying your juice, you need to look at how much actual acai it contains. Many juices are diluted with fruit juices such as apple, orange, strawberry and raspberry, or water. Pure acai berry juice should contain a large percentage of actual acai. A premium juice should have a deep purple color, as close as possible to the actual berry, and contain only a small amount of water or other juice.
Acai has a delicate flavor that is easily overwhelmed by other ingredients. So it's best paired with bananas, other berries, dates, nut milks and coconut. With its slightly chocolatey flavor, it also goes well with cacao.
Even though they are called berries, the fruit of the acai tree is a drupe (from the same family as plums), but its nutritional profile more resembles berries. Like other purple colored fruits, acai has a high concentration of anthocyanins. Anthocyanins, a potent antioxidant, give fruits and vegetables their deep blue-purple color.
Acai berries are also naturally high in essential fatty acids, (omega-3, omega-6) as well as omega-9 and monounsaturated oleic acid, with a similar profile to olive oil. They also contain amino acids, high levels of Vitamin C, as well as Vitamins A, B1, B2, B3 and E.
Many other wild claims have been made about this little fruit, such that it has magical weight loss properties, but I have found little evidence to support this. Treat this as you would any other healthy fruit. Consume it for its healthy antioxidant properties.
Blend together the frozen bananas, coconut milk, Medjool dates, almond butter and acai powder until smooth.
Pour into two serving glasses, then sit back and enjoy.
Add the frozen raspberries, vanilla yogurt, acai powder, cacao powder, Medjool dates, vanilla bean paste and coconut milk to your blender. Whizz on high until everything becomes smooth and creamy.
This makes two very generous serves.
Blend together the pumpkin puree, frozen banana, Medjool dates, coconut milk, acai powder, ground cinnamon and nutmeg until smooth.
To your blender add the roasted beet, berry puree, orange, coconut milk, frozen raspberries, vanilla yogurt, honey and vanilla extract and blend until thick and smooth.
This will make two large glasses.
Blitz together the acai berry puree, banana, blueberries, yogurt, coconut milk and honey until everything is wonderfully creamy and smooth.
Pour into two generous size glasses and enjoy.

Diesellok klass V 162 001 typ DB, loket har digitaldekoder och ljudmodul, DCC, motor med svänghjul, drivning på 4 axlar, slirskydd, LED, separat monterade handräcken, längd över buffertar 102 mm, epok V.
Prototype: German Federal Railroad (DB) pre-production diesel locomotive road number V 162 001. Diesel hydraulic locomotive with electric train heating. In a crimson paint scheme as it looked around 1965. Use: Passenger and freight trains.
Model: The locomotive has a built-in digital decoder and sound generator for operation with DCC, Selectrix, and Selectrix 2. The motor has a flywheel. 4 axles powered. Traction tires. The headlights and marker lights change over with the direction of travel. Warm white LEDs are used for lighting. The locomotive has cab lighting. All of the lighting can be controlled digitally. The locomotive has close coupler mechanisms. It also has separately applied grab irons. The locomotive has prototypical changes to the equipment with side vents and engine room windows as well as changes to the roof. Length over the buffers 102 mm / 4'.
Highlights: New tooling. Grab irons separately applied. Warm white LEDs for lighting. Cab lighting. Digital sound with many functions.
During the building of the regular production V 160, there were already initial thoughts about replacing the steam heating with electric train heating as part of emerging structural changes. In 1965, Krupp delivered road number V 162 001. In addition to the 1,900 horsepower motor known from the V 160, it also had a 500 horsepower MAN diesel motor for heating. This motor powered a BBC 3-phase generator by means of a gear drive. The output of the diesel motor for heating could be used however in the summer or with freight train service to boost motive power output. Shortly after that came road number V 162 002 in February of 1966 with an AEG generator and road number V 162 003 as the last unit in October of 1966. It had a Siemens generator that was flange-mounted directly to the diesel motor for heating. All three of the V 162 (starting in 1968: 217) differed from the V 160 externally only in the framed lengthened by 400 mm / 15-3/4' as well as the altered window and cooling grill arrangement. In 1968/69, Krupp delivered twelve regular production units like these prototypes, road numbers 217 011-022. Like road number V 162 003, they were equipped with a diesel motor for heating with a three-phase generator flange-mounted directly to it and also new hydraulic gearing for 130 km/h / 81 mph (140 km/h / 87 mph after subsequent changes to the brakes). Starting in 1974 road numbers 217 001 and 002 often served as braking locomotives on test and measurement runs as part of the proving trials of new motive power. Nothing changed on them right up to their retirement in the fall of 2010 (217 001) and the fall of 2011 (217 002). They were still available as required for test and measurement runs for the FTZ in Minden and Munich. All of the class 217 units were used mostly in freight service as early as the end of the Eighties. They changed in 2000 from Regensburg to Mühldorf, where they could prove themselves pulling heavy freight trains in the Southern Bavarian chemical triangle. At the end of 2011 the last of the DB class 217 units were taken out of service. Road number 217 002 was sold in the fall of 2012 to the BTE, road numbers 217 012, 015, 017, 020, and 021 to the Palatine Railroad, and road number 217 019 to the ESG. The latter has made itself useful since August of 2014 in a blue paint scheme, mostly in Southern Germany in construction site logistics.

3 Questions You Might Want To Ask About Los Angeles Lakers
Derek Fisher (1974 – ) is an American retired basketball player who spent most of his career taking part in for the Los Angeles Lakers, a staff he has won 5 NBA Championships with. For a crew that didn't make the playoffs in 2016, the Rams improved considerably in 2017, main their division within the regular season. Former Celtic Eddie House believes we'll see loads of that subsequent season. The best way the Suns' last sport of the season ended, "that's internal" and so forth didn't assist matters, either. The tide had turned, and by mid-January, the Allies had fought their manner again to their authentic place in the Ardennes Forest. It is a "string" of many battles fought by means of the nation to Germany's east and Russia's west. Keep in mind, the precise number of casualties in these battles includes not only the number of dead, but in addition injured, sick and missing. We'll start with one of many bloodiest battles in the Pacific theater. Identified as the Deacon, Irving Crane is taken into account one of the all-time greats in the sport of straight pool.
From averaging just 6.8 points per game as a rookie, Antetokounmpo's scoring average has quickly risen to 27.7 factors a recreation in 2019. This quantity is a career greatest common for Giannis. In 1976-1977, the yr the NBA merged with the ABA, Maravich averaged 31.1 factors to lead the league and had a 68-level recreation towards New York. A 4-time Pro Bowler and NFL MVP, Matt Ryan has been among the finest quarterbacks within the NFL since he entered the league in 2008. However, the one factor the veteran quarterback has yet to seize is a championship.J. On Feb. 8, 1942, 23,000 Japanese forces entered Singapore and by Feb. 15, 1942, the island had fallen. While the Marines reached the summit of Mount Suribachi Feb. 23, raising the U.S. The Battle for Iwo Jima started Feb. 19, 1945, when 70,000 U.S. The warfare raged throughout the globe till 1945, when the United States dropped two atomic bombs, one on Hiroshima and one on Nagasaki. On April 1, 1945, more than 60,000 troopers and U.S. More than 4,700 had been killed or wounded on Omaha Beach that day alone. Despite the crushing blow to Hitler, more than 765,000 Soviet troops also were killed.
Greater than 1,100,000 Soviet forces, and roughly 40,000 civilians died during the battle. Famine was the main cause of demise, and whereas it's tough to give actual figures, most historians agree that nearly 1 million individuals died during the siege. In fact, only a few people consider the differences in laughter in any respect. To describe laughter in text type, individuals can use phrases like "haha" or "hehe."

Illinois lawmaker says Pritzker not doing enough to curb Chicago's rising violence
By Mike Flannery
A Republican candidate for Illinois governor talked about Chicago's deadly street violence after spending a night camped outside on the South Side.
CHICAGO - A Republican candidate for Illinois governor talked about Chicago's deadly street violence after spending a night camped outside on the South Side.
State Sen. Darren Bailey and others spent a chilly night in Woodlawn, on a lot where one pastor hopes to build a new, community center.
Bailey used the occasion to accuse Gov. JB Pritzker of not doing enough to counter Chicago's rising tide of bloody violence, though Bailey was a bit vague when asked what he would do.
"I will search the state. I will find wonderful projects like project H.O.O.D., trustworthy leaders like Pastor Corey Brooks. And I believe we need to redirect funds, get them directly to the street, where they need to go," Bailey said.
Bailey, from southern Illinois, is the latest politician to join Pastor Brooks, who hopes to raise several million dollars for the community center he proposes to build.
Other Republican candidates are also focusing on Chicago's surge in shootings and killings this year.
Downstate tech entrepreneur Jesse Sullivan also says Pritzker has not done enough.
"Our political leaders have failed us. They want to separate this out into blue lives versus Black lives. It's not only wrong-headed, it's dangerous," Sullivan said. "Because the truth is, 95 percent of all of those violent deaths that have happened -- the victims are of minority communities."

A spokeswoman for Pritzker noted he just signed into law a three-year anti-violence initiative that includes $250 million in new funding. She also said Bailey voted against it.

Q: How to share image on Flutter to other application I tried using the https://pub.dartlang.org/packages/share plugin to share an image on my flutter app to other app like Whatsapp, Facebook and so on. But rather it sending the file name of the image(images/female/ankara/ank5.jpg) in my android project to the other application rather than the actually image.
How can make it send the actual image.
            Hero(
              tag: widget.imageList,
                child: PhotoView(

                            box.size);

I excepted to send the actual image to the other app rather it in a string format.

A: As mentioned in the previous comment, you can follow the answer on this Stack Overflow post for sharing images from a Flutter app. As for selecting a different image, you can use storage path provider plugins like ext_storage or image_picker.

Der Karl-Bittel-Park (auch Pfrimmpark) ist ein etwa 6,5 Hektar großer Volkspark in Worms.

Geographie
Der Karl-Bittel-Park, der eine der wenigen Grünen Lungen der Nibelungenstadt Worms darstellt, liegt in den Stadtteilen Pfiffligheim und Hochheim zwischen Rietschelstraße, Buschgasse, Park-, Donnersberg- und Nievergoltstraße. Er wird in West-Ost-Richtung von der Pfrimm durchflossen, einem linksseitigen bzw. westlichen Nebenfluss des Rheins.

Geschichte
Der Park wurde von 1896 bis 1898 als englischer Landschaftsgarten unterhalb der heutigen Donnersbergstraße angelegt. Finanziert wurde er von Karl Bittel (1840–1911), einem Wormser Schuhfabrikanten, der in New York und Paris sein Geld verdient hatte und seinen Ruhestand in Worms verbrachte. Auch der Entwurf stammt wahrscheinlich von Bittel, der darin vom städtischen Kulturingenieur Karl Völzing unterstützt wurde. Bittel ließ ab 1900 sein Wohnhaus Kanzeleck oberhalb des Parks errichten; das Familienmausoleum, eine als Rundtempel gestaltete Urnengrabstätte, befindet sich bis heute im Park.

1908 verkaufte Bittel die Parkanlage für einen symbolischen Preis an die Stadt Worms; diese ehrte ihn 1911 durch einen Gedenkstein im Ostteil des Parks. 1932 wurde der Park zu Ehren des Planers und Finanziers in Karl-Bittel-Park umbenannt, er wird aber im Volksmund und teils auch auf Landkarten und Stadtplänen Pfrimmpark genannt. In den 1970er Jahren wurde eine Teilfläche im Westen des Parks für den Bau der Nievergoltstraße genutzt.

Der Park wird seit 2006 in insgesamt zehn Phasen im Rahmen eines gartendenkmalpflegerischen Parkpflegewerks saniert. Mit dem Wiederaufbau des dortigen Teehauses, von dem nach mehreren Umbauten nur noch das Fundament erhalten war, wurde 2014 begonnen.

Landschaftsbild
In den Pfrimmpark wurden der 1900 errichtete Burgturm am Kanzeleck als künstliche Ruine und das Urnenmausoleum der Familie Bittel integriert. Im Ostteil des Parks wurde ein Teich angelegt, der zunächst 1956 in einen Springbrunnen und dann in den 1980er Jahren in eine Sandspielfläche umgewandelt wurde. Oberhalb davon befindet sich ein Teehaus als zentrales Architekturelement des Parks.

Mehrere Sichtachsen verbinden den Park mit der angrenzenden Bebauung, insbesondere mit den von Bittel finanzierten Gebäuden in Donnersberg- und Parkstraße um den Haupteingang des Parks; weitere Achsen verknüpfen die Architekturelemente im Park miteinander.

Innerhalb und nahe dem Park kann die Pfrimm auf mehreren Fußgängerbrücken und dem 1898 unterhalb eines Wehres angelegten Ochsenklavier zwischen Pfiffligheim und Hochheim überquert werden; dort befindet sich eine Fischtreppe. Zahlreiche Wege, die teils entlang der Pfrimm über die Parkgrenzen hinaus bis nach Pfeddersheim und Neuhausen führen, verlaufen durch den Park.

Durch den Park verläuft ein Abschnitt des vom Heimatverein Worms-Pfiffligheim e. V. angelegten Rundwegs zu den Pfiffligheimer Sehenswürdigkeiten.

Child Support: Season Two Ratings
After a short freshman season of lackluster ratings, it was something of a surprise the Child Support TV show wasn't cancelled by ABC. Now that the unusual game show is back for a second season, can it build up its audience and secure its place on the Alphabet Network's TGIF lineup? Will Child Support be cancelled or renewed for season three? Stay tuned. *Status update below.
Fred Savage, who came to fame as one of TV's most endearing kids on The Wonder Years hosts Child Support, which was created by Ricky Gervais. Adult players have to answer ten questions correctly, in order to win the top prize of $200,000. When the grownups give the wrong answer, that's when five cute and funny kids ride to the rescue. Gervais has asked the children the same thing. If they are able to supply the correct response, their support saves the adults.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show's likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly in the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — typically around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
12/15 update: You can see the latest night's ratings in context.
Note: If you're not seeing the updated chart, please try reloading the page or view it here.
For comparisons: The first season of Child Support on ABC averaged a 0.73 rating in the 18-49 year old demographic and 3.742 million viewers.
Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include "live" viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an "*" are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.
What do you think? Do you like the Child Support TV series on ABC? Should it be cancelled or renewed for a third season?
*Update: ABC has cancelled the Child Support TV show so there won't be a third season.

Tiredofdrama
We love this show! Good, clean family tv. Hoping for another season!
Brian Hochberg
Child Support is such a fun show, and I think it's a good family oriented program. I hope ABC gives it the thumbs up for a third season.
Michelle D Vancas
A question tonight was misleading. What int he US is referred to as pee wee, large and jumbo? Eggs – Not in Southwestern Pennsylvania. I am 68 years old and married for 40 years. I have NEVER seen pee wee eggs! We have extra small (rarely) ,small, large, extra large and jumbo. I, too, would have missed this one. Bad!!!
Scott (TOONDISE)
I don't know why Child Support was renewed in the first place. It's a decent show, but it didn't do too well in the ratings the first time around, and now the ratings are even lower than before. And for the second season, the only change they made was allowing eliminated contestants to still leave with some money. They didn't even cut out the discussion segments with the children, during answers that the contestant got correct (to speed up the format).
I think ABC should just bring back The Mole or DUEL at this rate…

The '90s was a decade of great musical diversity. Genre begat subgenre to appeal to nearly every musical taste. Grunge, alternative and indie rock claimed dominance. The focus of hip-hop migrated west with gangsta rap. Country music exploded commercially as artists like Garth Brooks and Shania Twain began selling out stadiums and the Nashville Network (TNN) hit the airwaves. Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Oasis and the Foo Fighters surfaced as some of the most influential rock bands of the era. Alanis Morissette, Sheryl Crow and Lauryn Hill displayed their unique voices in songwriting and performance. Tupac Shakur, Snoop Dogg, Dr. Dre, Notorious B.I.G. and others elevated hip-hop to the mainstream.


The people of Haiti thank Our Lady of Perpetual Help for all her years.
The years 1882-2007 marks 125 years of the miraculous healing of the Haitian people from the scourge of Verette that ravaged the country at that time. According to what we have learned, the bishops gathered in prayer with the faithful at Bel'Air in the Chapel of Our Lady of Perpetual Help, asking for the issue that people who perished of this epidemic, and grace dropped from the sky all the people who were infected with this disease be cured.
Today 65 years, from 1942-2007, marks the official consecration of Our Lady of Perpetual Help, first under President Elie Lescot, a mulatto.
According to historical testimony, there had been a kind of hunt against Voodoo priests (this movement was Defeated) in the country. Contempt of voodoo, as if this confession of faith prevented the country to go on the voice of progress, but 65 years later why do we celebrate this date? At that time the sons and daughters of Haiti who practiced Voodoo had difficulty to explain why, many of them are the black and the president of that time was a mulatto and the current president of the Haitian Conference of Bishops Mgr. Louis Kébreau is also a mulatto and often harshly criticized the Aristide government democratically elected by the people. These same wealthy high religious authorities never on a single day, during the reign of defacto Latrotue government, lifted a finger to condemn abuses against the poor people.
From this we can see this commemoration as an important date in the history of the people, marking the continued exclusion of the poorest in the Haitian society. But members of the Catholic Church in Haiti and other religions have walked on several streets of the Haitian capital wearing shirts with the image of Our Lady Perpetual of Help this Saturday, December 8 opportunity to celebrate Queen Mary Immaculate Conception. They were several thousands marched and prayed, leaving the chapel of Our Lady Perpetual of Help of Bel'Air, received by the President of the Republic Mr. Rene Garcia Preval at National Palace, it can be said that National Palace, it was a purely symbolic gesture, because it was only the Bishops, priests, journalists and members of organizers were able to access in the courtyard of the National Palace, remained largely outside in prayer.
Before the porch their was a dedication to the Virgin Mary. A plaque recalls the bad date. Arriving at Sylvio Castor our closing Mass of the day would be celebrated by more than ten Haitian Bishops and the Representative of the Pope, the Apostolic Mario Jordana, the representative of the Haitian Episcopal Bishop of Central Department, Hinche's Louis Kebreau, delivered the message of circumstance to call for the people to demand the government take its responsibility in hand, condemn corruption, drug trafficking. These authorities seem to want to address the present government. One wonders if it is no longer a sign of a coming event in the country?
"Mary is pleased to see you are the recognizing people, you walked in peace and dignity. Today people walked, he wants the freedom we see that there are really blockages, which is why we are asking the government to take seriously its responsibility to help the people who want to move forward, the help themselves out in insecurity, unemployment, corruption and the people need to take the true path and not the path of drugs. Where his children crying and mothers who pay for the soul, and the children have no models to follow. There is a social injustice that hangs over this nation, which is likely to lose its dignity, a people so proud of himself. Who is the cause? ".
For the corruption that the President of the Episcopal Haitian spoke, one wonders whether the Church itself is not an accomplice, when the church asked openly driving members of the Provisional Electoral Council (CEP), which surrounds almost CEP by corrupt people. This corrupt epidemic within this Council has been shown by numerous journalist reports.
Later he spoke of a cleansing issue for the Haitian people, the power of death.
"The moment of truth has arrived, the hour of freedom is rung, we must reconquer our independence, we have to live as brothers and sisters, it's time for us to stop taking dictations, the people Haitian people of freedom and pride, it is we who must provide the solution to our problems my brothers and sisters…"
At the end of the Apostolic wedding he read a message from the pope: the pportunity of this event was according to a resolution adopted by the College of Bishops of Haiti, a Roman Catholic missionaries attempt to obtain the grace and favor of God for this people.
But for the church to obtain grace and favor it must be for the poor!


The parent company of Formula One paid just £5.2m ($6.5m) in corporation tax last year on profits of £372.3m ($463.6m) according to its latest accounts, ITV News has found.
Over the past decade. F1's annual corporation tax rate effectively came to an average of 3.3 per cent - nearly eight times lower than the standard rate.
Since 2006, F1 has paid a total of $122.9m in tax on profits of $5bn thanks to an agreement with HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) which allows it to use internal loans to generate losses on paper and reduce its bill.
Analysis of more than 100 sets of company accounts shows how lucrative the agreement is as F1 would have had to pay at least $500m more in corporation tax if it hadn't been in place.
F1 is controlled by the Luxembourg-based private equity firm CVC Capital, which bought it for $2bn in 2006. In September CVC agreed to sell the business for $4.4bn to US media firm Liberty Media which told analysts that F1's "extremely tax efficient" structure was one of the driving forces behind the blockbuster deal.
In a recent interview, Liberty Media's billionaire chairman John Malone said that on being told about the proposal to buy F1: "I just said 'Eureka! And even the tax structure is brilliant'."
As CVC, and the majority of F1's other shareholders, are based offshore, HMRC will receive little in capital gains tax from the proceeds of the sale.
Soon after CVC acquired F1 it set up a complex web of companies in the UK and offshore jurisdictions, including Jersey and Luxembourg. This structure served a financial purpose as it enabled F1 to shift profits from its UK headquarters to offshore subsidiaries where little or no tax is due.
It is a perfectly legitimate practice known as transfer pricing, or advance pricing, and is usually only open to multinational companies.
Last year, F1 had $1.7bn of revenue which principally comes from three sources: race hosting fees, television broadcasting fees and advertising and sponsorship of races.
This revenue is largely received by two companies - Formula One World Championship and Formula One Marketing - both of which are located in the UK, along with another 13 of the 24 companies in the group.
Although the revenue is paid to UK companies, they have a trick under their bonnet to minimise their tax bill.
Many of the UK companies have received huge loans from their offshore counterparts in the F1 group which charge a 10 per cent annual interest rate. The interest came to $395.4m last year and payment of it is a cost to the UK companies - so it pushes them into a paper loss, which reduces their tax bill.
The loss is only on paper as both the British and offshore companies are owned by the same shareholders - so the loaned money is simply being moved from one hand to the other.
As the interest is received offshore, it isn't taxed there - and so it can be paid out to F1's shareholders with no deductions.
In 2015, F1 had $4.3bn of intra-group loans and, crucially, HMRC's consent is required for the interest on them to be tax deductible. The more interest HMRC allows to be deducted, the less tax there is to be paid in the UK.
In F1's case, HMRC agrees that the interest on its loans can be classed as deductible - which is why its tax bill is so low.
The group's tax charge is materially dependent on the amount of UK tax relief available to it for interest expense on certain intra-Group loans.
The amount of such relief is limited to the 'arm's length' amount of interest, which can be a subjective matter. In order to obtain greater certainty regarding our affairs we have since 2008 operated pursuant to a formal advance thin capitalisation agreement with the UK's tax authority, HM Revenue & Customs.
All of F1's UK-based businesses are ultimately owned by parent company Delta Topco, and its accounts show that in the year to 31 December 2015 it paid a total of £5.2m ($6.5m) in corporation tax last year on profits of £372.3m ($463.6m).
So, to summarise, over the past decade F1 has made profits in the UK of around $5bn on revenue of $14.8bn - but only paid $122.9m of tax thanks to an agreement with HMRC.
This led to F1 paying HMRC at least $500m less than it would have done if it hadn't had an agreement with the tax man. In turn this made F1 more attractive to buyers and Liberty has offered $4.4bn. However, because the majority of F1's shareholders are based offshore HMRC will receive little capital gains tax which would be paid if the sellers were in the UK.
Alex Cobham, director of research at the Tax Justice Network, said it was "simply astonishing".
For a successful, global business, it's impossible to imagine how interest rates of more than nine per cent over the Bank of England base rate could have been justified as market rates – and simply astonishing that HMRC could agree to such terms, and give up hundreds of millions of pounds of tax revenue that would otherwise have been due.
It's no surprise to see Liberty, as they look to take over the company, boasting to their investors of the 'extreme tax efficiency' of F1.
Extreme, it certainly is – and hard to believe that HMRC could have made such agreements. This confirms the need for public scrutiny of advance pricing and advance thin capitalisation agreements.
These dull titles hide the fact that they are contracts with private companies that reallocate significant public resources. Given the potential to create quite extraordinary private gains, as appears to be the case with F1, there can be no justification for their ongoing secrecy.
Corporate tax agreements raced into the spotlight in August, when Apple was fined a record €13bn (£11bn) by the European Commission (EC).
Apple channelled all of its sales in Europe through a company in Ireland, where the government allowed it to allocate the vast majority of its profits to a head office which the EC claims existed "only on paper". As a result, its tax rate hovered between 0.005 per cent and one per cent, and the EC alleges this was a benefit to Apple in particular which breaks EU state aid rules.
However, F1 is on the final lap of its agreement with HMRC.
Company documents reveal that the deal expires at the end of next year, which coincides with changes in British tax law. These changes are being introduced in April and will cap the amount of interest on internal loans which can be used to offset tax.
The limit will be equivalent to 30 per cent of taxable profits, which is far lower than the level of around 90 per cent F1 has enjoyed in recent years.
It should mean that F1 pays millions of pounds more in tax in the UK, and the research suggests its bill could increase more than ten-fold.

For some reason, the city of Allen has this weird idea that suburban people like trees, rivers, parks and walking trails. Rather than letting developers tear down any tree in their path in the name of one more knockoff subdivision with no personality or soul, the city of Allen has carved out large chunks of natural Texas land and reserved it for parks and trails. This trail is hard to find, but it's worth it. It's just off Alma and Rollins, down a paved bike path. Head in the direction of the trees, and not the overpass, and you'll find it. Once you do, there's no mistaking where you are. You're in the middle of a true Texas forest. The Trail at the Woods is nicely marked, and the actual trail is level and well-maintained. There are 10 trails in all, some of which overlook the Trinity River. Along the trails there are also little stands with information on the types of trees and wildlife that live in the forest. Look around, you might see a squirrel, a cardinal or maybe even a deer. There's no better place in the metroplex to forget that you live in a suburban wasteland.

commercial support from Red Hat for 1.9.x via the RH-SSO product.
RH-SSO 7.0 is based off of Keycloak 1.9.8.
configured in the Keycloak admin console page is the admin endpoint.
spring adapter supports backchannel logout.
Not much help, but its the most I can offer at the moment.
> We are working on Keycloak 1.9.3 with spring security, and trying to implement backchannel logout (one application performs logout and the second application is not aware of it).
> 1.       What is the best practice to handle backchannel logout ? more specifically where and how the access token validation should be performed (how the second application should know that the first one performed the logout ?) ?
> 2.       We have noticed that Keycloak spring security filters (straight from documentation) don't try to authenticate the token after it revokes. What's the best practice to handle access token expiration ? is it implemented by keycloak or should we handle it in the server or client side ?
> 3.       getToken() method of RefreshableKeycloakSecurityContext does not fail if the token is expired,  is it on purpose ? if so should we handle it in our application code ?
> 4.       We have implemented the KeycloakOIDCFilter, but it doesn't empty the spring security authentication object (SecurityContextHolder.getContext().getAuthentication()) after logout, as a result the client 'thinks' it is still authenticated, what's the best practice to handle it ?

Four different varieties of sandwiches made for a picnic, cocktail party or outdoor barbecue bash. Each recipe starts with the same bread and uses simple, everyday ingredients such as fresh veggies, deli meat and Sargento® Sliced Cheese. Be sure to serve a Turkey Club, Cheddar BLT, Turkey Cheddar Apple or Chicken Salad Sandwich for any summer sandwich occasion.
Sandwiches are a meal I turn to when I'm hungry. It's something I make numerous times a week and always seems to be the main food served for all those family memories by the lake house. It's the food we package up to bring to the docks and enjoy a picnic in the sand.
It's the food we bring on summer boating trips and long car rides to the cabin. It's the food we serve next to burgers at all our family barbecues.
Each sandwich is individually packed with fresh vegetables, lettuce and deli meat that pairs beautifully with pre-sliced and ready to use Sargento® Sliced Cheese from Kroger.
The basics of sandwiches are pretty simple; bread, meat and cheese. Add in addition fillings and there are just so many possibilities! Whether it's a variety of sandwiches, a juicy grilled burger or a wrap with all the fixings, the possibilities are endless when pairing it with Sargento® Sliced Cheese.
We love to host backyard barbecues and picnics and we always have Sargento® Sliced Cheese on hand because it's made from real, natural cheese.
There are endless possibilities when it comes to sandwiches. Start with the basics. Use a variety of different grain breads to pair with protein. Experiment with fruit and vegetables combinations. Add different sauces and condiment spreads to the list. Top it with a variety of different flavored cheese.
Stocking the cart with essentials will allow for a more convenient get together of hot paninis, cold sandwiches and grilled food.
Think back to those childhood sandwich recipes mom used to make for picnics. I love to adapt those recipes and try new flavors.

Love these picnic sandwiches! My favourite is the turkey apple sandwich yum!
That stack of sammies had me drooling. I need to try the Cheddar BLT. The chicken salad looks amzing too!
Those two sandwiches are incredibly delicious! Thanks, Terri!
These all sounds delicious. My son eats a sandwich every day. He loves his sandwiches.
We live off of sandwiches. I can't tell you how I truly search everywhere for new ideas. Thanks for these.
The Cheddar BLT sounds awesome. I love avocado on my sandwiches. These look amazing and some would be awesome as a panini with melted cheese.
That melted cheese panini sounds amazing right now. I will have to try it next time!
I'm a weirdo and don't really like sandwiches, so I just do PB&J for me. The rest of my family is normal, though ;). They favor ham & cheese.
I prefer sandwiches in the summer, they're easy to make and you don't have to heat up stoves or ovens to make them! It's really nice to have sliced cheese like this, ready to use, no hassle and no fuss! Love it!
Yes please and pass the mayo! I need to eat! These look so good and I adore picnics!
These look so delicious! I love picnics, and I love to try to bring healthier options. I will be trying some of these combos.

'Agent of Election Fraud' Charged with 134 Felony Counts in Texas
State officials announce charges of felony election fraud and other crimes
on&nbsp8th November 2020 @ 4.00pm
Attorney General Ken Paxton announced the charges of election fraud in Texas
State officials in Texas have announced the discovery of an "agent of election fraud" who was illegally submitting ballots in a Texas county.
TX Attorney General Ken Paxton announced the arrest of a woman who was posing as a social worker to illegally gather and submit the ballots of elderly and disabled patients in Limestone County.
AG Paxton revealed that the suspect, Kelly Reagan Brunner, has been charged with 134 counts of felony election fraud.
"Attorney General Ken Paxton today announced that his Election Fraud Unit assisted the Limestone County Sheriff and District Attorney in charging Kelly Reagan Brunner, a social worker in the Mexia State Supported Living Center (SSLC), with 134 felony counts of purportedly acting as an agent and of election fraud," the AG's office said in a statement.
"State Supported Living Centers serve people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
"Brunner submitted voter registration applications for 67 residents without their signature or effective consent, while purporting to act as their agent."
Kelly Reagan Brunner has been charged with 134 counts of felony election fraud
"Under Texas law, only a parent, spouse or child who is a qualified voter of the county may act as an agent in registering a person to vote, after being appointed to do so by that person," the statement continued.
"None of the SSLC patients gave effective consent to be registered, and a number of them have been declared totally mentally incapacitated by a court, thereby making them ineligible to vote in Texas."
If she is convicted, Brunner faces up to 10 years in prison for these offenses, the statement added.
Texas AG Ken Paxton praised the law enforcement officials who were involved in the investigation:
I strongly commend the Limestone County District Attorney's Office, Sheriff's Office, and Elections Office, as well as the Department of Health and Human Services Office of the Inspector General for their outstanding work on this case and their commitment to ensuring a free and fair Presidential election in the face of unprecedented voter fraud.
Registering citizens to vote or to obtain mail ballots without their consent is illegal.
It is particularly offensive when individuals purport to be champions for disability rights, when in reality they are abusing our most vulnerable citizens in order to gain access to their ballots and amplify their own political voice.
My office is prepared to assist any Texas county in combating this insidious form of fraud.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott said in a statement: "Election fraud is real.
"In Texas, we investigate and prosecute it.
"Today a Limestone County social worker was charged with 134 felony counts involving election fraud.
"All states must take election fraud seriously to ensure confidence in elections."
In a statement, Texas Governor Greg Abbott said: 'Election fraud is real. In Texas, we investigate and prosecute it'
Paxton announced in September that law enforcement officials had arrested several individuals for their alleged involvement in an illegal ballot harvesting scheme in Texas' 2018 Democrat primary.
"The four individuals—Charlie Burns, Dewayne Ward, Marlena Jackson and Jackson's husband Shannon Brown, a Democrat who was serving as Gregg County's Precinct 4 commissioner—collectively stand accused of 134 different felony charges of election fraud and ballot tampering," Newsweek reported.
"If found guilty, each individual could face six months in jail to 99 years in prison."

As ediscovery continued to grow in the early 2000s, so, too, did the risk of inadvertently producing privileged documents. In response, in 2008, Congress enacted Federal Rule of Evidence 502(d), which allows a party to clawback any privileged or protected materials as long as there were reasonable steps to prevent the disclosure as well as to rectify it.
In 2013, U.S. Magistrate Andrew J. Peck issued a noteworthy order around Rule 502(d). The order was intended to provide the maximum protection around the rule.
In a 2016 post, Attorney Kyle Heisner for the firm Marshall Dennehey Warner Coleman & Goggin also asserted the benefit of drafting a 502(d) order and recommended particular language in the order.
Thomson Reuters has called Rule 502(d) "the most effective and underused protection against privilege waivers." Counsel is encouraged to confidently use the protection the rule provides.
Let us manage the details of ediscovery so you can focus on the practice of law.

Avenda Health Granted FDA Breakthrough Device Designation for Technology to Treat Prostate Cancer
Avenda Health Advances Male "Lumpectomy" for Prostate Cancer with New In-Office, AI-Based Focal Therapy System
SANTA MONICA, Calif. – Breakthrough Device Designation was awarded to Avenda Health for a male "lumpectomy" product in development designed to treat prostate cancer in-office while preserving quality of life. Breakthrough Device Designation by FDA is reserved for devices that are potentially transformative, offering treatment for serious diseases that may be more effective than currently available treatments. Avenda Health is a California-based software and medical device company aiming to improve cancer outcomes through artificial intelligence (AI) and minimally invasive technologies.
Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers, with one in eight men developing it in their lifetime.[1] Prostate cancer is traditionally treated by surgery or radiation, which have well-known side effects such as urinary, sexual or bowel dysfunction. The Avenda Health Focal Therapy System, which is designed to spare healthy tissue and minimize side effects, uses patient-specific information and AI to deliver a precise and personalized treatment, targeting only the tumor. This treatment can be performed in a physician's office with just local anesthesia, minimizing the patient's downtime and potentially reducing cost to the healthcare system.
"We are working to advance the treatment of prostate cancer by giving patients and their doctors more options. We see our approach as similar to that of a lumpectomy for breast cancer – if the cancerous tumor and appropriate treatment margins can be identified, the standard approach of removing the entire prostate gland and surrounding tissue may not be necessary," said Shyam Natarajan, co-founder and CEO of Avenda Health.
Under the FDA Breakthrough Device Program, the FDA will provide Avenda Health with priority review for clinical trial protocols and commercialization decisions. The designation may also facilitate Medicare reimbursement following FDA approval of the technology.
"The FDA has not approved a new device for the treatment of localized prostate cancer in more than 40 years. We look forward to working closely with the FDA to bring our product to market so that patients no longer need to choose between treating their prostate cancer and preserving their quality of life," said Brit Berry-Pusey, co-founder and COO of Avenda Health.
Avenda Health spun out of UCLA and was founded with support from a National Cancer Institute grant, which helped fund a Phase I study on 10 patients that recently completed enrollment. The study demonstrated safety and no decline in urinary or sexual function in patients over the follow-up period.
"Ten years ago, a group of dedicated clinical scientists at UCLA came together from urology, radiology, pathology and biomedical engineering with the goal of improving treatment for prostate cancer. Where we are today compared to when we started is remarkable," said Leonard S. Marks, M.D., co-founder and chief medical officer of Avenda Health and professor of urology at UCLA. "Avenda Health continues to advance in this mission, and the FDA's recognition of the incredible impact that this technology could have on the field of urology in treating prostate cancer is encouraging."

HYDERABAD: Makhdoom Mohiuddin, poet-revolutionary of Hyderabad, was so pained by the Spanish Civil War (1936-39) that he actually wanted to go to Spain to fight the fascists.
The civil war appeared to have had a lasting impression and one could see change in form and content of Makhdoom's poetry.
This turning point was discernible in his poem Andhera.
His biographer Aleksey Sokhavich recorded how the Communist and trade union leader always had on his writing table, a copy of Guernica by Picasso.
Several such little known facets from the life and times of Makhdoom like this one by Ali Zaheer were in full flow at the two-day seminar organised by the Alam Khundmiri Foundation in association with National Council for Promotion of Urdu Language (NCPUL) and AP Urdu Academy as part of his centenary celebrations here on Thursday.
Makhdoom's associate B. Narsing Rao, in his paper, recalled the poet's foray into writing plays, translation of Bernard Shaw and Anton Chekhov's works and even staging them.
"His daring action was to stage Chekhov's 'Cherry Orchards' translated by him into Urdu as Phool Ban. Freedom fighter and poet, Sarojini Naidu's daughter, Lila Mani had a role in it, the first time ever for a woman, in Hyderabad's then conservative society.
Abid Hussain, former Indian Ambassador to US, who inaugurated the seminar, recalled his association with Makhdoom and described him as a poet who won the hearts of the masses. His greatest gift was towards love. When love took the form of verse, poetry flowed. When it took the form of activity, it triggered revolution.
His stream of thinking revolved around love, lyrics and revolution, he said. Ali Javed, Director of NCPUL, said Makhdoom struck a balance between being a party activist and a poet which even Faiz Ahmed Faiz, Pakistan poet, could not.
The year-long centenary celebrations would see conduct of seminars in all important cities. State CPI secretary K. Narayana and State CPI (M) secretary B. V. Raghavulu spoke, while scholars from New Delhi, Aligarh and Kolkata besides Hyderabad presented papers.
The latter piece was included in a Hindi movie called Gaman starring Farooque Sheikh and Smita Patil. The movie was made in 1978 and the vocals for the ghazal were rendered by Chhaya Ganguly.
do badan pyaar ki aag mein jal gaye..
Nusqaa-e-keemiyaa -e- muhabbat bhi hai ?
Kuchh ilaaj -o- mudaavaa-e- ulfat bhi hai ??
It was a very popular ghazal… sung by all and sundry in the Hyderabad of yester years… Subsequently it was used in a movie (Cha-cha-cha / circa 1964 / by Hyderabadi musician Iqbal Qureshi). This Ghazal was based on a real-life incident… where barbarians brutally killed 2 lovers (of different backgrounds).
Az Azal Taa Abad… yeh bataa chaara`gar !
Thanks a lot Raza saheb, for remembering a distinguished poet from my city (Hyderabad Deccan).
Maqdoom Mohiuddin is Quli Qutub Shah of 20th century. Quli laid the foundation of gazal. It is a historical fact that in the hands of Maqdoom gazal attained amazing heights and its crowing glory. Bhagmathi (Lady Love) inspired and enticed Quli into love gazal. Similarly, there was lady love in Maqdoom's life and literature also. Ms.Indira Dhanrajgir is life-force of Maqdoom's love gazals. All his love gazals are addressed to her. Ms.Indira is Bhagmathi of Maqdoom's life and 20th century urdu gazal. Indira Ji's name appears conspicuously in several pages in his Magnum Opus 'Bisat-e-Raks". Without an elaborate discussion on this vital aspect any account of Maqdoom's life or poetry is shallow and meaningless. All the researchers and critics should work on this component of Maqdoom's literature.

Thanks a lot for the helpful write-up. It is also my opinion that mesothelioma has an incredibly long latency phase, which means that signs of the disease might not emerge until finally 30 to 50 years after the preliminary exposure to asbestos fiber. Pleural mesothelioma, which can be the most common kind and is affecting the area throughout the lungs, might result in shortness of breath, chest pains, as well as a persistent cough, which may bring about coughing up maintain.

Aino Siviä Calonius, född 11 september 1881 i Viborg, Finland, död okänt år, var en finländsk operasångerska (mezzosopran).

Biografi
Calonius var dotter till kronolänsmannen Bengt Sigrid Calonius (1825–1907) och dennes maka Elvina Constantina Charlotta Åkerman (1838–1909). I familjen föddes sju barn. Aino Calonius farfars farfars brorson var juristen Matthias Calonius.

Redan 1905 gav Calonius en konsert tillsammans med föreningen Nuorten Naisten Kristillinen Yhdistys ("Unga kvinnors kristna förbund"). Senare studerade hon sång vid Helsingfors musikinstitut under ledning av Alexandra Ahnger och sitt första uppmärksammade framträdande var i Oskar Merikantos pjäs Pohjan neiti då den sattes upp första gången på Nationalteatern den 16 november 1908.

När Edvard Fazer i februari 1909 bildade ensemblen för operaföreställningarna vid Nationalteatern, ingick Calonius tillsammans med Hjalmar Frey, Wäinö Sola, Agnes Poschner, Ester Forsman, Ida Korander, Bruno Jorma, Yrjö Somersalmi, Iivari Kainulainen, Irene Renvall, Constance Neumann och Alma Auer. Repertoaren för våren bestod av pjäserna Flygande holländaren, Don Juan och Eugene Onegin. Huvudrollsinnehavaren för samtliga var John Forsell. I mars och april 1909 spelade Calonius i Haakon Jarl, vilken sattes upp i Helsingfors tillsammans med Sällskapet Muntra Musikanter.

1910 inledde hon sångstudier hos Selma Nicklass-Kempner vid Sternska konservatoriet i Berlin. Andra finländare som studerade där samtidigt var Wäinö Sola, Aino Halonen, Juho Koskelo, Bruno Jorma och Eino Rautavaara. Sin första konsert efter att studierna i Berlin inletts, gav hon i Helsingfors i oktober 1912. Kritiken blev inte god; Bis (Karl Fredrik Wasenius) för Hufvudstadsbladet ansåg att Calonius som elev till Ahnger hade en "av naturen intressant röst", men att de fortsatta studierna resulterat i en hård klang och dålig andhämtning samt att Calonius sjöng med en "oskön, vriden munställning". En annan recensent för Dagens Tidning skrev att hennes sång var "ovanligt osjälvständig, ovanligt stereotyp, blottar en ovanligt ytlig uppfattning av liederna, ett ovanligt svagt temperament". Recensenten ifrågasatte Calonius' plats som artist med orden: "En sjungande dam af frk. C:s art skall på sin höjd ägna sin sång åt familjesamkvämen".

I december 1912 ansökte Calonius om ett nytt konstnärsstipendium för att kunna fortsätta studierna i Berlin. Den 3 maj 1913 spelade hon Azucena i Trubaduren och den 3 juni samma år spelade hon i Achilles, vilka sattes upp på konservatoriet Stern. För insatsen i Trubaduren fick hon mycket goda vitsord i den tyska pressen och ansågs vara betydligt bättre än sina motspelare. Studierna vid Stern-konservatoriet avslutades på våren 1914.

På 1920-talet flyttade Calonius till Königsberg i Ostpreussen, nuvarande Kaliningrad i Ryssland. Hon upptas i stadens skådespelare- och adressbok för år 1924 och var där till yrket konsertsångerska. Finska Rundradion sände vid två tillfällen radiosändningar från Königsberg med Calonius' medverkan; i mars 1928 en körkonsert, där Calonius ingick med några tyska solister, och i juli 1929, där Calonius sjöng solo ackompanjerad av en tysk orkester. I juni 1929 inbjöds de finländska sångarna Theodor Weissman och Aapo Similä genom Pohjoismainen Sähkö Oy att göra skivinspelningar för bolaget Homocord i Berlin. I den vevan fick Calonius tillfälle att sjunga in nio skivor på finska, varav en var Sam Sihvos Jääkärin morsian ("Jägarsoldatens brud"), vilken gjordes i sällskap av Similä, Weissman och studioorkestern med kör. Hon var boende i Königsberg ännu 1935.
