The Drama for Learning and Creativity initiative, or D4LC, is an innovative program operating in the UK and bring implemented by other countries across the globe. At this year's CODE conference, Patrice Baldwin, President of National Drama UK and Chair of IDEA, premiered this video so that Ontario teachers could learn about ways in which drama in making its way into all aspects of the elementary curriculum thanks to D4LC. . .
So, what exactly IS Drama for Learning and Creativity?
D4LC started in the UK 2005 and is a thriving, evolving partnership model that improves whole schools through the strategic use of drama as pedagogy.
D4LC is a growing national and international network and movement of teachers, schools, subject association and local authorities. Together they have proved through research and evaluation, the positive impact of drama on both learning and creativity for children and teachers in UK schools.
D4LC is providing an evidence base for advocacy to policymakers about the importance and power of drama as a humanistic, holistic and inspirational pedagogy that effectively supports the learning and creative imaginations of children in the 21st century.
D4LC promotes whole class drama and the use of role (including teacher in role), as a powerful learning and teaching medium for children and students of any age. Before children start school they are learning about themselves, their lives and worlds through voluntary and frequent dramatic play. D4LC sets about ensuring the continuation throughout their formal education of this "imagined experience" approach that uses "working in role" with an empathetic adult (teacher) alongside as a mediator and facilitator of the learning experience.
Drama pays attention to and builds on what the brains of young children are motivated to do naturally to learn …. to "pretend" alone and with others meaningfully.
Drama is enjoyable to children and therefore highly motivational. Drama is multi-sensory, uses and develops multi-intelligences and links cognitive and affective learning.
Drama holistically supports and enables creative, cultural, social, emotional, physical, spiritual, moral and aesthetic development and aspects of learning .

Tom Thibodeau talks snapping 4-game losing streak
Photo: Adam Pantozzi/Getty Images
New York Knicks head coach Tom Thibodeau was happy to see his team get back on track last night in their 105-103 home win vs. the Cleveland Cavaliers.
(via New York Knicks):
"We need every win we can get, but it's also navigating a season. Obviously we fell short 4 games in a row, and the last two games going into the 4th quarter, we're in position to win, and we didn't do enough things to win the game. So then how do you get the urgency to get that done and not to get discouraged to just get more determined? Like, 'OK, we gotta make this go our way.' And so that's what I liked. I liked the fight in the team. I liked the urgency that we had. Oftentimes these games, they come down to an offensive rebound, a loose ball, a deflection, and that's the difference sometimes between winning and losing. That's why everything does matter, all the little things matter."

We Asked 9 Historians: What Would Theodor Herzl Say About The Israel Of Today?
by The Scribe

Theodore Herzl looking out upon modern day Jerusalem, Israel.
Earlier this month, longtime Forward subscriber David Kaplan asked us to tackle a simple question: "If Theodor Herzl came back to life, what would he say about the Israel of today?"
We put eight esteemed historians to the task:
Anita Shapira, Professor Emerita in Jewish History at Tel Aviv University and the Founder of the Yitzhak Rabin Center for Israel Studies:
Israel today is a tale of two cities: Jerusalem and Tel Aviv. If Herzl visited Tel Aviv, he would be filled with wonder and joy: a vibrant Mediterranean city, with so many young people, babies and dogs, speaking a strange language, which he was told was Hebrew. They were visiting numerous cafes, restaurants and pubs. The cultural life could match any big city in Europe. It is a very tolerant city, relaxed and welcoming.
But then he had to go to visit Jerusalem, the city that was supposed to host the temple of peace, and his impressions would change: Despite it being the holy city of the three monotheistic religions, it was a city filled with tension and hate, anything but brotherly love. In his utopian novel, "Altneuland," Herzl described an election campaign between the good guys, humanistic and cosmopolitan, and the bigots, intolerant and hyper-nationalist. In the novel, the good guys won. Jerusalem looked like the bad guys did.
The Israel he would encounter is a success story. But he would worry: which of the two cities would have the upper hand? Would it be Tel Aviv, an improved version of a tolerant Vienna that he had dreamed of, or the current Jerusalem, that looked like all that was bad in Vienna of his time?
Allan Arkush, Professor of Judaic Studies and History at SUNY Binghamton and Senior Contributing Editor of the Jewish Review of Books:
Who else among the visionaries who died more than a century ago would enjoy being resurrected today as much as Theodor Herzl? I can't think of anyone. It would be easy, of course, to identify the ways in which the actual State of Israel falls short of what he imagined in his utopian novel, "Altneuland" (Old New Land). But when has reality ever caught up completely with such bold and improbable dreams?
"Old-New Land" revolves around the transformation of David Litwak, the son of a poor Galician peddler in Vienna, into a strong and effective leader of a model Jewish society in Palestine. I think that more than anything else, Herzl would be gratified to see how Israel has served over the years as a vehicle for the rehabilitation of countless David Litwaks into proud and productive citizens. This would please him, I believe, more than the knowledge that these same people would prove, when compelled, to be outstanding soldiers. The Jewish society that Herzl envisioned had, after all, no armed forces.
I think that a resurrected Herzl would be surprised and disappointed to see that the achievement of his dream had required the creation of a garrison state and dismayed to see how the Arab-Israeli conflict has continued to fester, preventing the harmonious co-existence of Jews and Arabs that he had foreseen. I would like to think, however, that if he came back he would remain optimistic about the prospects for the fuller achievement of his ideals.
Yael Zerubavel, Professor of Jewish Studies and History at Rutgers University and author of the forthcoming book, "Desert in the Promised Land" (Stanford University Press, 2018):
The idea of bringing the historic Herzl to present-day Israel is fascinating because he passed away when a Jewish state was more of a dream than a doable project. If we focus on the historical figure, we have to keep in mind that he represents the upbringing, mores, and views of an educated, central European, bourgeois Jew at the end of the nineteenth century. But if we are to summon the mythical Zionist visionary, we may end up with a sort of a Rorschach test: a figure on whom we project our views and political persuasions.
What would Herzl say about Israel today? I believe he would be deeply moved to see a Jewish state, with its own government, public institutions, and an army. He would be impressed by the numerous towns and agricultural and residential communities that transformed the country's landscape, and by Jews' ingenuity in facing their country's limited natural resources. He would be surprised, though, that Israel is not European but a country that offers its own blend of Western and Middle Eastern cultures.
Deeply concerned by entrenched prejudices toward ethnic and religious minorities that led European states to treat them as secondary and suspect citizens, he would be shocked to see Israel embracing a similar attitude toward its non-Jewish citizens, especially the Muslim Arabs. He would be abhorred to find the Jewish state in control of territories conquered by military force whose inhabitants are denied full civil rights. And as a former journalist he would find it personally offensive that an extreme right-wing organization, set on curbing academic and public discourse and human rights agenda, coopted his own words im tirtzu (if you wish it) for its name to promote their legitimacy and agenda.
Herzl would be moved by Israeli Jews' confidence, energy, and creativity, but dismayed to watch the lack of civility on the roads or in the Knesset debates. And when encountering the enforcement of halakhic rules over state institutions or spotting public spaces marked for the separation of men and women, he would turn around bewildered to inquire if a wrong button was pressed taking him back to a past before his own lifetime.
Yaron Peleg, Kennedy-Leigh Reader in Modern Hebrew Studies at University of Cambridge:
Although Theodor Herzl articulated lofty political visions, he also had an eye for smaller details, which often gave a more human touch to his wilder imaginings. Readers familiar with his utopian novel "Altneuland" may remember one of the first crises that Mr. Kingscourt and Dr. Lowenberg meet upon arriving in Haifa after an absence of some twenty years: the empty coast they remember from their first visit has been transformed into a modern, bustling metropolis. Having been invited by their hosts to attend an opera performance on their first night in town, the visiting gentlemen, who were living on a remote pacific island for years, are distressed to discover that they do not have white gloves with them.
Herzl would be hard-pressed to find "white gloves" in Israel today, save perhaps on the hands of Mizrahi drag performer Uriel Yekutiel, aka Arisa, in the clip of his hit song, "It Aint No Europe Here" (Po Zeh Lo Europa). But my guess is that the Zionist visionary's sense of decorum will likely be offended by the gay clubbing icon, Yekutiel, made up and dressed in a cheap and showy mélange of European period costumes, walking through a disheveled Tel Aviv and singing archly, "Get used to it, missy, it aint no Europe here, we are a total mess, an Arab Middle East.
Sara Yael Hirschhorn, University Research Lecturer in Israel Studies; Sidney Brichto Fellow, Oxford Centre for Hebrew and Jewish Studies
First and foremost, Theodor Herzl would find the Israel of 2018 unrecognizable to the most un-Jewish fin de siècle Western European intellectual who as an accident of history was the unlikely founder of the political Zionist movement — he might even had been surprised to find that Jewish self-determination had been secured in the Middle East and not Uganda! Herzl died long before the Zionist dream was realized — the living, thriving, prolific, successful, divided, wracked, traumatized but oh so undeniable embodiment of Jewish sovereignty is a reality that even a consummate, perhaps pathological, idealist like Herzl would find remarkable. While Herzl's vision of a Vienna on the Mediterranean has mostly been substantiated today (if this Israel has departed significantly from its early socialist years), an ideologue that hoped to keep priests in their temples like soldiers in their barracks would be shocked by the transformation of his "State of the Jews" into a "Jewish State" and would certainly have been an opponent to the new Nation-State law, the apotheosis of Herzl's aspirations. Had Herzl been alive today, perhaps he once again may have taken on the mantle of Zionist leadership to bring about his ideal — Im Tirzu Ein Zo Agadah?
Moshe Zimmermann, director emeritus of the Richard Koebner Minerva Center for German History at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem:
Herzl's Utopia "Altneuland" (1902), describing Jewish future life in Palestine, opens with the famous dictum: "If you will, it is no dream." Today Herzl would have concluded: "Indeed, it is no dream, but a nightmare."
More than a century ago, Herzl proposed Zionism, i.e. Jewish nationalism, as the solution for the "Jewish problem," to substitute the allegedly abortive solution of emancipation and integration into European society. A Jewish nation in its own territory, he believed, would make anti-Semitism, the hard core of the "Problem," irrelevant. Instead, the Jewish state has become a further incentive for anti-Semitic propaganda, and anti-Semitism a major concern for Israel and its politics. Not exactly Herzl's dream come true.
Moreover: Herzl expected his nation to create a new, benevolent nationalism — liberal, tolerant and anti-bellicose, so different from the European Nationalisms he knew. Nothing of the kind emerged after 1948. Had Herzl, who expected Zionism to pave the way out of the discrimination of the Jewish minority in Europe, come back to life, he would have been horrified by Israel's attempt at legalizing the discrimination of the Arab minority through the recent Nation-State Law).
And finally: Herzl believed in secular Jewish nationalism, leaving religion a private matter. Instead the most reactionary form of Jewish religion deconstructed his Zionism and gained control over the Jewish state.
Herzl in 2018 would say, "I had a dream."
Rabbi Yotav Eliach, Principal of Rambam Mesivta and author of "Judaism Zionism and the Land of Israel":
Those who focus on Herzl as the father of Zionism forget the 4,000-year Jewish connection to the Land of Israel. That is not to say that Herzl was not a visionary who played an enormous role in the re-establishment of the third Jewish State; Herzl was a very important link in a 4,000-year-old chain, but he was not the first link, nor was he the last.
The father of the idea that Eretz Yisrael (the land of Israel) is the homeland of the Jewish nation was the biblical Patriarch Abraham. Several generations later, the visionary who led the Jewish people to the banks of the Jordan River and prepared them to enter the Land of Israel was Moses. The man who established the first Jewish State, in the 1200s BCE, was Joshua; Ezra the Scribe re-established the Second Jewish Commonwealth some 600 years later. Judah the Maccabee established sovereignty for the second Jewish State in 164 BCE. Sixty years after the second Jewish State was destroyed in 70 CE by the Romans, Bar Kochba and Rabbi Akiva launched a failed rebellion to re-establish a third Jewish State. The most Zionist book written in the post-Biblical period was the Siddur, the Jewish prayer book, that is replete with references to the Jewish nation returning to the Land of Israel and Jerusalem, written by members of the Great Knesset in the waning days of the second Jewish State. In the beginning and middle of the 19th century, Rabbis Alkalai and Kalischer wrote that the time ordained to begin the mass return by Jews to the Land of Israel had arrived. Finally, in 1882, Hovevei Tzion, founded by Rabbi Mohilever, began the process of building new settlements in the ancient Jewish homeland.
Herzl was the modern father of Political Zionism, but he did not invent the Zionist idea or movement. He created the World Zionist Organization, which helped re-establish the Modern State of Israel.
All the above-mentioned leaders, should they be miraculously transported forward in time to the Modern State of Israel circa 2018/5778, would at the same time be bewildered and full of pride and admiration!
Jacques Kornberg, Professor Emeritus in the Department of History, University of Toronto
The question gives me an opportunity to discuss writing history, to see historical actors as creatures of their time, and not to judge past epochs by the outlooks of today.
Herzl was born in 1860 and died in 1904. He was an assimilated Viennese Jew, in an age of anti-Semitism. Indeed, he was plagued by feelings of inferiority, as he shared the negative stereotypes of Jews held by Gentile society. Since the Eighteenth-Century Enlightenment, when intellectuals began to talk about integrating Jews into civil society, they linked integration to the 'improvement' of the Jews. The trouble was that the range of occupations had been closed off to Jews. Confined to commerce, money-making became their sole avenue to power, honor and status. On the other hand, Gentiles gained honors through sacrifice for the common good, through military valor, through civic engagement. Is it any wonder Jews had cultivated timidity, caution, and anxious apprehension?
For Herzl, the answer to overcoming Jewish 'defects' was the bold and risky call for a State right away, not by painstaking settlement while hiding one's ultimate aims, nor by gradually building up a popular national movement. Rather a State right away, negotiated by the Society of Jews with one of the Great Powers. The Zionist aim had to be bold and exhilarating. In that regard he opposed the Hebrew language revival, which he believed would cut the State off from its links with European civilization. In his words, he sought not a provincial Boer State, but a German speaking one linked to Europe. His idea of a State for Jews (Judenstaat) transformed him from an author of witty plays and elegant and melancholy newspaper pieces to a passionate prophet and leader.

Herzl 2018:
It is quiet here in my nice hotel room. Only in this quiet place can I recall my first impressions. I landed in Israel as a private visitor. I did not notice any Israeli officials on my trip. Luckily, I escaped those tiring ceremonies with hollow speeches.
Noise, too much noise, came first. Shouts and nervous voices in speakers hit me when I made my first steps in the airport terminal. So different from the relaxed and respectable approach that I am used to in my European hometown. Indeed, high volume is everywhere, as is the commanding tone of the Israelis. They are so different from the Jews! Living on sword affects also their stressed body language and atmosphere, in particular in Jerusalem.
Then I saw the guns. So many of them, carried by soldiers and civilians. It does not make me feel safe. On the contrary, I acknowledge that this is a dangerous place. Israel is far from the calm and pastoral state that I envisioned.
I was no less astonished seeing so many bearded men with skullcaps and head covered women. It did not take me too long to acknowledge that Israel is the state of Orthodox Jews, unlike what I expected it to be.
It is better for my ill heart to go back home.

Indian renewable energy company ReNew Power has signed a definitive agreement to acquire 527.9MW of operational solar and wind assets located across eight Indian states.
The acquired portfolio consists of 471.65MW of wind and 56.25MW of solar assets.
Renewable projects also have power purchase agreements in place with the state distribution companies of Gujarat, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Karnataka, Rajasthan, Telangana, Kerala, and Tamil Nadu.
With an average remaining life span of 17 years, the portfolio also has an 25MW PPA with corporate customers.
The total enterprise value of these agreements is around Rs30bn ($388m) and is expected to generate a full-year FY23 EBITDA of about Rs3.95bn – Rs4.24bn ($51m – $55m).
Renew will be receiving cash flows from clean energy generated by the assets from 1 April 2022, which is the lock box date.
The deal is expected to conclude in second quarter of next year.
Renew Power has also signed a PPA with Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company (MSEDCL) for a 200MW solar project located in the state of Rajasthan.
The project is expected to come online by fourth quarter of 2024.
Under the PPA, ReNew will supply electricity at Rs.2.43/kWh ($0.031/kWh) for a period of 25-years.
Both deals will increase Renew Power's gross total portfolio to 12.8GW from 10.2GW at the beginning of this year.
ReNew Power chairman and CEO Sumant Sinha said: "The clean energy transition in India must happen at an increasingly rapid pace to meet—and green—the expanding energy requirements of the country, and to strengthen its longer-term energy security.
"Given the recent electricity shortages and blackouts, customers are even more keen to sign new power agreements to ensure future supply. ReNew will be at the heart of this growth in clean energy that will support India's crucial fight against climate change."
In January this year, ReNew Power announced the divesture of its 117MW distributed rooftop solar portfolio to Fourth Partner Energy for a consideration of $89.9m.

The cloud has dominated news cycles for so long that it can be overwhelming for businesses considering a cloud migration to get their bearings. Rather than immediately diving into complex and specific cloud decisions that are best reserved for deeper in the process, it's necessary to first consider if cloud computing is even right for your organization. To determine that, ask yourself the following five foundational questions.
What Benefits Do I Want from the Cloud?
It all begins with the simplest of questions. Countless articles will tout cloud migration benefits, but it's necessary to consider how your organization currently operates, houses data, runs programs, secures applications, and more. What do you anticipate improving if you were to move to the cloud?
With 76% of small business cloud users reporting reduced costs, money is often the top catalyst for a move to the cloud. Keeping everything in-house is expensive. You have infrastructure, hardware, and personnel costs to consider, and that's assuming your business can even handle a high level of data processing or traffic spikes that may come at certain times of the year. The cloud offers the ability to scale up or down as necessary which means money isn't unnecessarily spent, and the reduction of physical power consumption helps save even more.
While some argue keeping everything in-house maintains the highest level of security, what happens in the event of a fire or natural disaster? At its most basic, a cloud can serve as a backup for data storage. Plus, 83% of IT professionals are already storing sensitive data in the cloud, indicating higher levels of trust and security than ever before. Cloud providers also manage the patching and updating of client environments, improving security without further effort on your part.
When it comes to running applications or accessing information quickly and from different geographic areas, the cloud makes a huge difference for companies. Employees who work from home or in separate offices can quickly and conveniently get their jobs done through the cloud rather than trying to connect to a solitary server room in the basement of the company's offices. Most clouds offer superb integrations with existing data warehouses, ETL tools, and other company software programs.
How Do Public, Private, Multi, and Hybrid Clouds Compare?
Public cloud: As the traditional and straightforward option, the public cloud is what most people think of first. Choose a provider and they'll store your data, run your applications, and provide a number of other proprietary services.
Private cloud: This option is attractive in that it's completely customized and dedicated solely to your business. However, the costs to create and maintain your own cloud outweigh the benefits when modern public cloud capabilities are so high and secure. Only 15% of enterprises don't use a public cloud, and those who choose private ones typically do so for regulatory or industry compliance reasons.
Multi cloud: It may come as a surprise, but 84% of organizations use a multi-cloud strategy. That means they are using more than one cloud service/setup at the same time (i.e. using both AWS and Azure, or using a hybrid cloud). While this may be more feasible for larger organizations with different departments and moving parts, it's something to consider depending on how you segment your operations.
Hybrid cloud: Of the 84% of businesses with a multi-cloud strategy, over half use a hybrid cloud made up of public and private offerings. Rather than put all your eggs in one basket, this strategy can take advantage of the on-demand features of public clouds with the customization and control of private ones. This mentality avoids a single point of failure, but still likely has extra cost associated with it.
Which Cloud Provider Would I Go With?
Many make the mistake of starting with this question, and while it's important to understand what's available in the market, there's no reason to stress out on choosing your cloud provider too early in the process. The good news is that as you consider the other questions on this list and think about your operations, some providers will naturally rise to the top of your list.
AWS: Amazon Web Services (AWS) dominates the field as the most popular cloud option, with 77% of companies who use a cloud currently utilizing or experimenting with the service. Constantly improving its ecosystem and offerings, it's an option favored by developers. Plus, the largest digital bank in America, Capital One, provides a nod of confidence by relying on AWS to run their AI initiatives.
Azure: Microsoft maintains a hold on the number two spot with 52% of companies currently using their cloud service. With a huge array of related offerings, Microsoft provides an attractive option and familiarity for those who engage with other services of theirs. Furthermore, Azure especially excels in working with data centers.
Google Cloud Platform: 20% of companies are using Google's cloud offering, and while that puts the service in third place, it's one that is growing rapidly and seeing large investment. As Google begins to package the offering with its other services, expect to see it become more prevalent and a viable option for many.
IBM, Oracle, VMware, and Alibaba: While an exhaustive cloud list is unrealistic to compile, there are offerings outside of the big three worth mentioning. They may be used less frequently than others, but these services still have vast numbers of customers. As you consider some of the "smaller" players, you'll find that many are grounded in a specialty or niche. For example, IBM prides itself on multi-cloud tools and being a great option to base hybrid models around.
Can I Secure the Cloud?
Let's say you've thought it through and are ready to migrate to the cloud. Before signing on the dotted line, it's essential to consider your security practices. In fact, research proves that security concerns are the #1 barrier to cloud adoption. No matter what advertisements tell you, switching to the cloud is never a "plug and play" situation when it comes to security. Clouds require constant monitoring, and that means IT professionals who can spot weaknesses, backdoors, and breaches before they turn into full-blown cyberattacks.
Public cloud providers do their best to alleviate security concerns by monitoring their networks and providing patches often. However, every member of your organization will play a vital role in maintaining cloud security. Employees must be educated on cloud best practices so they're not jeopardizing the integrity of your cloud environment. Downloading or uploading corrupted files, accessing the cloud from an unsecured home network or personal device, and using poor passwords (or not using one at all) all can have dire consequences for cloud security.
Can I Find Cloud Talent?
This is ultimately the question that can make or break plans to migrate to the cloud. Without the right experts in your corner, whether they are in-house, temporary, or provided by another company, there simply isn't the potential for long-term cloud success. Of course, finding the right cloud professionals isn't easy considering the IT job growth rate at its lowest in nine years due to a lack of IT pros.
The IT skills gap is clear in Portland and across the country, but in niches like cloud and security, it's even more distinct. Nearly three-fourths of organizations plan to spend more on security to help potential cloud operations, but that requires hiring. In the face of a new talent economy, organizations like yours experience a new hiring reality that requires determining the right mix of talent and outside services to accomplish initiatives like cloud migrations.
Moving to the cloud can bring many benefits with it, but getting to that point can be a challenge. It takes due diligence by conducting research and, at a minimum, asking yourself the above five questions. Only then can you be truly confident that a cloud environment is right for your business.
When you need a hand making cloud decisions or securing expert cloud talent, CorSource is ready to help.

Time to get into Kendall-Frost Marsh–all the way in!
Join us for the 14th annual celebration of our local wetlands, and learn why they matter, how they are threatened, and what you can do to help! You'll have the unique opportunity to explore a reserve that is normally closed to the public. There will be marsh walks, live bird presentations, wetlands-themed crafts and experiments, and an opportunity raffle. Bring rain boots for the guided walk and be prepared for some muddy fun.


Now that some ex-Texans are settled and some other OK Mefites are wanting to meet, it looks like November 10th would be a good time for a meetup here in the city. This invitation goes out to any one willing to drive in for the night - (looking at you ufez and bugg) and those close enough to carpool. Come inside and help decide where to get together.
I was thinking somewhere in Bricktown, maybe, but since it might be too busy on a Saturday, maybe over on Meridian? Lots of choices, I think it might depend on how many people want to come out.
I'm 6,000 miles away right now.
I'm in. Are we thinking afternoon or evening?
I heartily endorse this event or product. Lemme get back to you tomorrow on venues - I've got some of my people* working on it.
Aww, Brittanie, that's too bad. Well, if you give us a heads up when you plan on coming back for a visit, it will give us another excuse for a meetup. Where is this Rock N' Bowl of which you speak?
It's Texas Tech - in Lubbock, though. Kickoff's at 11am.
What about Sushi Neko? I think they'll take a reservation for a group.
Strike that, I misread my calendar; it's a home game - Baylor. But I think kickoff's still at 11am.
If I'm thinking of the same place, it's down in the southwest quadrant around 59th, and would certainly be a... quirky choice.
Sorry, Northwest quadrant. See above re: ...quirky.
Rock 'N Bowl happens every weekend at 66 Bowl on Rt. 66 just west of the fairgrounds.
But even if you don't plan the meet-up for a Saturday Night, 66 Bowl is great place to meet friends and hang out. They have a full bar.
D'oh. I'm not back in Tulsa until Thanksgiving week. And then not coming back for another year.
My sweet d, I have learned after all of these years that you shall never come and see me up here. I merely extended the invite to those two since they expressed an interest at the Dallas meetup. You didn't, so there. You know I always enjoy seeing you, tho.
Brit, I have been there, but didn't realize it was called that. Last time I was there, the band was the manager's teenage son and his band, and they let their girlfriends giggle and "sing". We hadn't drank near enough to enjoy that.
dw, that's too bad, but you have just given us an excuse for another meetup *next* November.
Some day I'll come and prove you wrong. Till then, I'll just have to have a party with ufez's lady friend while he is gone since she wasn't invited either.
Drat. Unfortunately this semi-settled ex-Texan has to make a trip back down there that weekend. I demand that there be another (second) event planned, and SOON.
The Neko is always lovely.
Okay, on the subject of bars, Downtown Monthly did some quick editors' picks for us - based on our circumstances they liked VZD's, Tapwerks, Maker's in Bricktown, the patio at Mamacita's if it's not too cold, and someplace called the Red Rooster on N. Walker. Anyone have personal experience?
I think TapWerks would be good for us. Its down in Bricktown, where there are other things to do if we want, like stroll over to Maker's afterwards (My best friend's husband might be playing there that night). Neko might be a bit pricey, esp if we want to spend money on drinks, too.
Count me in. Don't care where or when as long as there is beer and MeFites it'll be golden Ponyboy.
C'mon Okies let's get this party started! November 10th Tapwerks sounds great to me. I can pickup anyone within a 40 mile radius of OKC. I'm pumped to meet y'all!
oops, 11/10 is OU vs Baylor. The gametime has yet to be announced, but w/season tix I'll definitely be there. I could easily meet somewhere in Norman as long as it isn't a night game. Otherwise maybe Friday the 9th?
I'm there too. Looking forward to it!! I'll be the LOUD ONE.
Quick update/reminder - This Friday night, November 16th, 7pm at TapWerks in Bricktown. It looks like we will have at least 7 of us there, so we will need a couple of tables to park ourselves. I also found out that there is a big Centennial concert with Garth, Reba, Toby and Vince at the Ford Center at 7pm, also. I don't think we will have any problem getting seating when we get there, but it will prolly get crowded after the show.

Q: Flutter Canvas Set Frame Rate I have a custom painter that I'm using to build a small game engine for fun. I have the following code that is supposed to call the draw function of my custom painter 60 times per second:
SceneRenderChangeNotifier repaintNotifer = SceneRenderChangeNotifier();

preformSetup()
{
  ...
  Timer timer = Timer.periodic(Duration(milliseconds: (1000 / _sceneToRender.frameRate).toInt()),
                                                        (Timer t) => forceUpdate(false));
}

forceUpdate(bool callFromDebug)
{
   repaintNotifer.notifyChanges();
}

I then pass that repaint notifier to my custom painter.
While this seems to work okay on android / IOS, it's very choppy on web. I thought that maybe my draw function was running too slowly on web, but by putting in a stopwatch I can see that it takes about 1.4 milliseconds for my draw function to complete each frame which should be plenty low enough for 60 FPS.
I put in logging and it's a a range of 18 - 24ms from the end of my paint function to the start of the next paint function call. This leads me to believe the large gap between calls to paint is what's causing the bad performance.
In the docs for custom painters, they say:
The most efficient way to trigger a repaint is to either:

Extend this class and supply a repaint argument to the constructor of the CustomPainter, where that object notifies its listeners when it is time to repaint.
Extend Listenable (e.g. via ChangeNotifier) and implement CustomPainter, so that the object itself provides the notifications directly.

I feel like I'm doing option #1 here, is option #2 much better for web? Or is there a better way in general to make the canvas redraw on an interval?
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Q: The easiest way to replace white spaces with (underscores) _ in bash recently I had to write a little script that parsed VMs in XenServer and as the names of the VMs are mostly with white spaces in e.g Windows XP or Windows Server 2008, I had to trim those white spaces and replace them with underscores _ . I found a simple solution to do this using sed which is great tool when it comes to string manipulation.
echo "This is just a test" | sed -e 's/ /_/g'

returns
This_is_just_a_test

Are there other ways to accomplish this?

A: This is borderline programming, but look into using tr:
$ echo "this is just a test" | tr -s ' ' | tr ' ' '_'

Should do it. The first invocation squeezes the spaces down, the second replaces with underscore. You probably need to add TABs and other whitespace characters, this is for spaces only.

A: You can do it using only the shell, no need for tr or sed
$ str="This is just a test"
$ echo ${str// /_}
This_is_just_a_test

Q: Funcion y condicional Buenas noches.
Tengo dos vectores, uno con datos binarios
M <- c(1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0)
y otro con datos no binarios
C <- c(2.5, 3)
Necesito crear una función (en R) que asigne un valor del vector C, cada vez que se encuentre un valor de 1 del vector M, que reemplace el valor de uno por los valores de C. El ejemplo seria:
(2.5, 0, 0, 5.3, 0, 0)

Lo ideal seria usar if, solo que no estoy consiguiendo generar ese reemplazo.

A: La forma más fácil y rápida es la siguiente:
m<-c(1,0,0,1,0,0)
c<-c(2.5,3)
m[m == 1] <- c
m
> 2.5 0.0 0.0 3.0 0.0 0.0

Pero tienes que tener en cuenta que los valores de c se reciclan, por ejemplo:
m<-c(1,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,1)
c<-c(2.5,3)

m[m == 1] <- c
m

> 2.5 0.0 0.0 3.0 0.0 0.0 2.5 0.0 3.0

Si no quieres reciclar los valores de c y solo reemplazar los n valores de c puedes hacer esto:
m<-c(1,0,0,1,0,0,1,0,1)
c<-c(2.5,3)
m[which(m == 1)[1:length(c)]]<-c
m

> [1] 2.5 0.0 0.0 3.0 0.0 0.0 1.0 0.0 1.0

A: Puede ser así:
bin<-c(1,0,0,1,0)
nbin<-c(3.6,4.5)

sustituye_unos<-function(bin,nbin){
     k<-1
     for(i in 1:length(bin)){
          if(bin[i]==1&(!is.na(nbin[k]))){
               bin[i]<-nbin[k]
               k<-k+1
          }else{#¿Que pasa si se terminan los número en nbin?}
     }
     return(bin)
}

> sustituye_unos(bin,nbin)

Regs helped Wyo's coal industry. Weakening them won't save it.
November 19, 2019 by Kerry Drake 3 Comments
It's impossible to have an honest discussion about the future of coal in Wyoming until lawmakers stop blaming the so-called "war on coal" and strict federal regulations for the steady decline in mineral production and state revenues.
Any serious examination of the issue needs to acknowledge the history of coal development in the state. That will clarify how many federal environmental laws and regulations have positively — not negatively — impacted an industry that has paid the freight for funding state government for decades.
Our federal and state representatives are not doing Wyoming citizens favors by attempting to cast the fate of coal in purely political terms that, far from merely shading the truth, totally eclipse it.
So let's recap the history, and benefits, of coal-related regulations.
First, Wyoming owes the very existence of its economic boom from developing the Powder River Basin's abundant coal reserves to the federal Clean Air Act of 1970 and subsequent amendments to the law. These changes made the low-sulfur content of PRB coal extremely desirable to coal-fired power plants that were mandated to reduce pollution.
Wyoming's vast coal reserves, easily accessible through surface mining compared to the underground mines of Appalachia, were suddenly on a level playing field. The federal government's decision to deregulate the railroad industry gave PRB coal a further competitive advantage. By lowering transportation costs, coal could be moved cheaply from Wyoming to valuable Midwest and East Coast markets.
Federal regulations, of course, are also responsible for making mining considerably safer for workers. Injuries and deaths still occur too often in the state, but such incidents would likely happen at a much higher rate if safety regulations did not exist.
Federal and state reclamation laws, meanwhile, have helped ensure that companies restore lands impaired by coal mining activity to government-mandated levels. Responsible companies voluntarily comply with these laws for the public good. Unfortunately, others wield bankruptcies and loopholes that have allowed them to escape their social obligations to reclaim affected lands.
Environmental protection laws and regulations mandated by Congress in the '70s and '80s, meanwhile, have helped hold industry's feet to the fire in other ways. They are responsible for improving air quality for humans and preventing companies from harming Wyoming's precious wildlife and habitat. The state's sage grouse management plan is a model of state and federal cooperation that ensures protection of the iconic bird while still allowing mineral development.
I get more than a little riled up when I hear officials at the state and federal levels blame stronger environmental regulations for ruining the coal industry's profit-making abilities, closing mines and reducing high-paying jobs and state revenues.
On the contrary, it's these very laws that allowed the coal industry to flourish in Wyoming for so many years. While imperfect — and in need of continuous revisions to improve them — the last thing in the world they need is to be gutted, leaving industry to police itself. I would hate to see what the state's environment would look like absent these legal protections.
Which brings us to the bogus "war on coal." I've attended countless legislative meetings and heard many floor debates where lawmakers rail against the federal government for enacting laws that allegedly place a stranglehold on the development of coal and other minerals.
Wyoming's congressional delegation has blamed regulations promulgated by former President Barack Obama's administration for the recent string of coal-company bankruptcies. When Blackjewel LLC closed two of the largest mines in the country in the Powder River Basin last summer, our Republican U.S. Rep. Liz Cheney quickly lashed out.
"While the Trump administration has made great strides in reversing President Obama's War on Coal, a number of factors including the far-reaching impact of regulations that unfairly penalize this industry are still causing pain in Wyoming," she said.
Let's make certain that Cheney's revisions don't become part of Wyoming's real history: Obama's Clean Coal Plan to combat climate change by requiring stronger emission standards was never even enacted. It was fought in the courts by industry and harangued to death by Republican politicians until Trump took over.
In his doomed-to-fail attempt to revive the coal industry and his repudiation of climate change as a "Chinese hoax," Trump has set environmental protections back decades. He has also proposed severely weakening a major environmental regulation covering mercury, a toxic chemical emitted from coal-burning power plants.
Support informed commentary with a tax-deductible donation today.
Other than blaming the feds, what have state legislators been doing to staunch the bleeding of coal's decline?
Lawmakers this interim have been discussing ways to protect miners from losing their retirements and health insurance in the instance of bankruptcies. That's a vital discussion that needs action during the budget session next February.
But I don't see much else on the horizon that can ease the state's transition. A $1 million coal marketing fund being floated by some conservative lawmakers would be available for the governor to respond to unspecified coal "emergencies." In its current form the bill is so vague and likely underfunded as to be essentially useless.
Other lawmakers want the state to fund a lawsuit to force Washington state to allow a coal export terminal so Wyoming can ship its product to Asia. They seriously believe Wyoming has an inherent right to make other states gut their own environmental protections to keep coal companies here profitable.
Coal's steep production decline — from a high of 462 million tons in 2011 to 324 million tons last year — is the result of two major factors. The first is cheap natural gas obtained through the environmentally damaging process of fracking, which the government has unfortunately allowed. The second is even cheaper renewable resources like wind and solar power.
The Legislature has gone to absurd lengths to prop up the coal industry. Earlier this year lawmakers passed Senate File 159, which requires companies that want to convert coal-burning power plants to natural gas and renewables or close facilities early, to first make a "good-faith effort" to find buyers. The bill was approved unanimously in the Senate and passed 50-8 in the House.
What makes anyone think that companies buying coal-fired plants could run them any cheaper than the current owners? PacifiCorp's Integrated Resource Plan would retire much of its fleet over the next two decades, dramatically reducing utility rates for Wyoming consumers.
But the new law would require PacifiCorp to purchase its power from the new owners, wiping out those rate reductions.
Rather than relying on the free market to determine the future of coal in the state, the Legislature — and Gov. Mark Gordon, who signed the bill into law — decided to regulate the industry by picking winners and losers. The degree to which ratepayers will be unduly punished will largely depend on the final regulations that guide the process, which will be determined by the Wyoming Public Service Commission.
Some lawmakers have actually proposed adding two legislators to the PSC. That's their solution to keep coal afloat: further politicize the regulatory agency so the industry can supposedly recover, climate change and financial concerns be damned.
Wyoming's best interests are not served when its politicians remain bent on a course of ignoring history and claiming that strict governmental regulations have ruined the coal industry.
Strong environmental regulations have helped keep it in business while significantly protecting the state, and those who championed them aren't to blame for the industry's failure to remain competitive.

Sailor of the Year, the final five candidates are them!
The jury met. And he decided. was not easy; there were many deserving sailors this year. Taking your preferences into account as well (both in the last stage, where the public vote was non-binding but advisory, and in the previous stages), the judges determined the five names of the final nominees for the 2017 Sailor of the Year, which crosses the 25-year mark this year.
Among them is the winner of the most coveted award in Italian sailing, and the winners of the other awards (TAG Heuer Performance, Innovation, Young and #don'tcrackunderpressure): to find out live, however, you will have to come to the Evening of Champions (starting at 7 p.m. on Friday, May 5, at the TAG Heuer VELAFestival of St. Margaret's).
A great evening-ceremony, presented by the legendary sports journalist Mino Taveri. Not only will you pay tribute to the five finalists we reveal below, but you will also get to meet them in person and also celebrate Vincenzo Onorato, who will be awarded the TAG Heuer VELAFestival Grand Prize for Lifetime Achievement on the occasion. And then again: since boats also have souls, celebrate with us 50 years of the legendary Arpège, one of the best-selling production boats in history, And you will meet great sailors who have been awarded the Sailor of the Year in the past (and whose stories will be told in a Hall of Fame exhibit).
Let's cut to the chase. The finalists are:
THE FINAL FIVE CANDIDATES FOR SAILOR OF THE YEAR
1. Paul Bua. A prolific 37-year-old designer from Sassari, Paolo Bua is little known in Italy but is highly regarded in France, so much so that he was honored by the prestigious Voile Magazine because no less than four of his designs were in the running for French Boat of the Year (XO-Racer, XO-Classic, Superleggero, Troll 26). Now he is becoming famous in Italy as well, and in the course of the various voting stages, he has amassed many preferences.
2. Tony Cili. Voted for, overwhelmingly voted for by the audience, especially the home audience. In Crotone, newspapers headlined "Help Tony," an endorsement with regional reach. But who is Tony? Class of 1988, a Calabrian from Crotone (born Antonio Ciliberto but to everyone isTony Cili), is a very strong Strapless kite surfing athlete (for us kite surfing is sailing, let's be clear), but before that a true "waterman" capable of mastering at a high level all board sports from kitesurfing to surfing via windsurfing and sup. This year he won the National Championships in the Wave category (same result as in 2015) and at the world level he is always going strong.
3. Joseph "Peppe Fornich" /
Sagola Biotrading (GS 37).
Peppe Fornich, also highly rated, is owner of the Grand Soleil 37 Sagola Biotrading, is always a protagonist of Italian and international offshore regattas. This year he won the Italian Offshore Championship in Class 3 Cruising and especially the Overall title of UVAI 2016 Owner of the Year.
4. Gaetano Mura. Gaetano hardly needs any introduction: the Sardinian skipper from Cala Gonone has made us dream, failed to complete his nonstop solo round-the-world voyage on the Class 40 Italia but has made ocean sailing popular here as well, thrilling everyone from insiders to laymen. Gaetano will try again; he is as stubborn as a mule. And we will all cheer for him once again. By the way: he will be featured on Friday in an event dedicated to him, starting at 3 p.m. also at the VELAFestival. Come and meet him there too!
5. Special Giorgia. The athlete from Ancona, class of 2000, was perhaps the most beautiful revelation of 2016 among sailboards. She won both the women's world and European women's titles aboard the Techno 293, while she made a great debut among the more challenging RS:X by finishing first in the Under-17 European Championships (sixth overall). It will be fire and brimstone between her and Marta Maggetti (who in turn was honored by us in 2014).
HOW THE SAILOR OF THE YEAR WORKS
Each of the winners will be awarded a TAG Heuer Aquaracer Calibre 5 high-precision waterproof chronograph (pictured opposite), capable of withstanding depths of up to 300 meters.

Alias Grace Is a True-Crime Story You've Never Heard Of & Will Be Obsessed With

The new Netflix show Alias Grace is already being compared to The Handmaid's Tale. In other words, it's expected to be good. Really good.
Related story Exclusive: The Unforgivable Star Aisling Franciosi Reveals How Sandra Bullock Set the Tone On Set
More: As a Woman, Here's How I Would Resist if I Lived During The Handmaid's Tale
The six-part miniseries, which premieres on Netflix on Nov.3, tells the story of an Irish immigrant and servant named Grace Marks, who is accused of murdering her employer in 1843, though she claims to have no memory of the event. She was just 16 at the time.
This show isn't going to be a must-watch for the mere storytelling aspect, but because it's also based on a real-life case, which was first adapted as a novel by Margaret Atwood, the same woman who authored The Handmaid's Tale.
According to The New York Times, few facts about the real-life murder are known. Atwood took liberties with the real-life case, such as adding the fact that Marks claims not to have any memory of the events. In actuality, she confessed to being present for the crime but places a majority of the blame on fellow servant James McDermott.
McDermott, in turn, said he was under Marks' spell.
"Grace Marks is wrong in stating she had no hand in the murder; she was the means from beginning to end," McDermott reportedly stated in his signed confession to George Walton in The Trials of James McDermott and Grace Marks.

Here are the important facts we have:
Thomas Kinnear, a wealthy Ontario farmer, and his housekeeper, Nancy Montgomery, were murdered on July 28, 1843. One was strangled and one was shot.
Marks and a stable hand James McDermott were convicted for the killings. McDermott was hanged but Marks' sentence was commuted because of her young age and her sex. It seems apparent that people didn't really know what to do with us weak-minded females back in the day. (I say this with a heavy helping of sarcasm.)
Marks entered the Provincial Penitentiary in Kingston, Ontario, on Nov. 19, 1843.
Eight-and-a-half years into her sentence, Marks reportedly began to act mentally unstable. It is unclear if Marks was actually insane or if she simply used that as a method to get a lesser sentence. It has been theorized she suffered from bipolar disorder.
Marks was reportedly especially haunted by the death of Montgomery.
She was pardoned and released in 1873. After that, she moved to New York, where all trace of her was lost.
Atwood writes in the afterward of her book, "The details were sensational: Grace Marks was uncommonly pretty and also extremely young; Kinnear's housekeeper, Nancy Montgomery, had previously given birth to an illegitimate child and was Thomas Kinnear's mistress; at her autopsy, she was found to be pregnant. Grace and her fellow servant James McDermott had run away to the United States together and were assumed by the press to be lovers. The combination of sex, violence and the deplorable insubordination of the lower classes was most attractive to the journalists of the day."
Questions about Marks' guilt still remain to this day. They are questions we will most likely never answer. But thanks to Atwood and the Netflix show coming our way, we will at least have an entertaining way of fitting the puzzle pieces together in this case.

"When there are crimes of violence involving both a man and a woman, it usually goes as follows: nobody ever says the man is a nice guy, but opinion often splits about the woman," Atwood explained to The Guardian. "Either she's the villainous instigator of it all, or else she's a terrified victim and she only did it because she was frightened for her life. That's the pattern with Grace. And there's evidence supporting both sides."

Schoolchildren 'can become more numerate by counting with their fingers'
Counting on one's fingers can play a crucial role in establishing a foundation of mathematical understanding for schoolchildren, according to new research.
The Sheffield Hallam University study has indicated that finger-based maths games may represent a much more important part of maths learning than previously thought, and ought not to be seen as a behaviour that should be discouraged.
For this research, a group of 137 primary school pupils aged between six and seven were asked to take part in a number of counting and number games, with a select group assigned exercises that involved finger-training.
Whereas some students were asked to take part in games involving numerical symbols like dominoes or snakes and ladders, others played finger games, such being asked to hold up a given number of digits, or tasks that involved assigning specific numbers to their individual fingers.
All of these children were shown to perform slightly better in maths tests than a third group of pupils who had simply continued with their regular maths teaching, but the group which did both the counting and finger games fared significantly better.
This indicates that the use of fingers in early maths learning can play an important role in helping children to conceptualise mathematical concepts in a more tangible way, giving them a means of understanding the theory on a deeper level.
Professor Tim Jay of Sheffield Hallam University said: "This study provides evidence that fingers provide children with a bridge between different representations of numbers, which can be verbal, written or symbolic. Combined finger training and number games could be a useful tool for teachers to support children's understanding of numbers."

Marina Abramović, USA

LECTURE BY MARINA ABRAMOVIĆ
Marina Abramović was born in Belgrade, Serbia on November 30, 1946 to parents who were important Yugoslav Partisans during World War II.
Abramović was a student at the Academy of Fine Arts in Belgrade from 1965 to 1970. She completed her post-graduate studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Zagreb, SR Croatia in 1972. Then she returned to Serbia and, from 1973 to 1975, she taught at the Academy of Fine Arts at Novi Sad, while implementing her first solo performances.
From the beginning of her career, spanning over four decades, Marina Abramović has pioneered performance art, creating some of the form's most important early work. The body has always been both Abramović's subject and medium. Exploring her physical and mental limits in works that ritualize the simple actions of everyday life, she has withstood pain, exhaustion and danger in her quest for emotional and spiritual transformation. She has explored new notions of identity by bringing in the participation of observers and highlighting the role of the public. Abramović's works deal the endless possibilities of the human mind and the question of man's confrontation with the unknown, while tirelessly exploring the relationship between the artist and the audience.
Abramović was awarded the Golden Lion for Best Artist at the 1997 Venice Biennale for the video installation and performance "Balkan Baroque." In 2008, she was decorated with the Austrian Commander Cross for her contribution to Art History. In 2013, the French Minister of Culture accepted her as an Officer to the Order of Arts and Letters. In addition to these and other awards, Abramović also holds multiple honorary doctorates from institutions around the world, including the Royal Academy in London. In 2021, Abramović was awarded the Golden Medal for Merits from the Republic of Serbia.
In 2010, Abramović had her first major U.S. retrospective and simultaneously performed for over 700 hours in "The Artist is Present" at the Museum of Modern Art in New York in what is to this day the largest exhibition of performance art ever held at the museum. Over her extensive career, she staged countless performances in the most prestigious museums and stages around the world.
In 2012, Abramović founded the Marina Abramović Institute (MAI), a platform for immaterial and long durational work to create new possibilities for collaboration among thinkers of all fields.
In 2021, only a few months before the beginning of the Russian invasion on Ukraine, Marina created "The Crystal Wall of Crying" at the Babyn Yar Holocaust Memorial Center to commemorate the Jewish lives lost at the Babyn Yar massacre. A few months later this site was bombed, but the memorial remains in tact.
The University of Haifa is proud to award an honorary doctorate to Marina Abramović, in recognition of her life's work as a daring artist, a role model and a source of inspiration for young artists in general and female artists in particular, and for the powerful emotional experience, she provides the audience through her works, which leads them on a path of unique and consciousness-changing experiences.
In 2023, the Marina Abramović Institute will partner with The University of Haifa to present young long durational performance artists.
