[The following, reprinted from two previous postings on Poems and Poetics, is intended to serve as an early announcement of a symposium on the work of Anne Blonstein (1958–2011) to be held in Buffalo April 17–19, 2020 under the auspices of the SUNY Buffalo Poetry Collection and the Switzerland-based Anne Blonstein Association.
Anne Blonstein died much too soon on April 19, 2011. She had by then created a remarkable series of works in which she employed and transformed traditional numerological and hermeneutic procedures (gematria, notarikon) in the composition of radically new experimental poems. Too little known, her oeuvre — as I would read it — is in a line that goes from Abulafia to Mallarmé and Mac Low and various poets of Oulipo and Fluxus, among others, while the devotion and precision that she shows throughout is clearly and powerfully her own. The essay by Charles Lock, published before her death and reprinted here from Salt Magazine, issue 2, is available here, along with five of her poems. There also now exists an Anne Blonstein Association in Münsingen, Switzerland, aimed at keeping her work alive. (J.R.)]

On notarikon: A note on the process by Anne Blonstein
Like gematria originally a rabbinical hermeneutical method employed to interpret the Hebrew scriptures, notarikon offers an intimate procedure for writing poetry that draws on existing texts. There are several categories of notarikon. The form that I apply might be regarded as the unfolding of acronyms. Each letter of a word is perceived as the initial letter of another word, such that the original word, letter by letter, fans out into a phrase. A four-letter name gives a four-word phrase: And notarikon never ends …
In some of my sequences, notarikon provides just a part of the poetic structure, in others it dominates.
All my notarikon-based projects since I began writing them about a decade ago have used source texts in languages other than English. While for my most recent sequences I have worked with texts in French, Spanish, and Hebrew, my first two sequences drew on (and in) German. The source texts for "correspondence with nobody," written in 2001, were Paul Celan's translations of twenty-one sonnets by Shakespeare. I wrote "worked on screen" the following year.
The impetus for these poems was an exhibition held at the Basel Kunstmuseum, "Paul Klee — Works on Paper." There is one poem for each of the 108 pictures in the exhibition, which showed drawings and prints (and the occasional painting) from nearly every year from 1903 to that of the artist's death in 1940. Klee's titles (often themselves micropoems) for each picture provided the letters for the notarikon. To begin with, as in the poems 1–7 here, I used the notarikon quite stringently, but as the sequence progressed, I experimented with a variety of ways of composing the poems with and around the basic notarikon method.
The poems are ekphrastic to varying degrees, and their spatialization occasionally echoes features of the Klee pictures, though in most poems it is independent. Because social and political contexts — Klee's and mine — are thematic threads etched through the sequence, in my book I give the date for each artwork (and of the poem's composition). Poem 53 refers to a quite well-known picture (easily viewed online) painted in 1922. The year of the so-called "Great Trial" of Ghandi, as well as the first publication of a rather famous poem …
AB notes by Charles Lock
Anne Blonstein's poetry has developed a deep and integral sense of encryption, which may be to say that, in her work, poetry extends its propensity to code, its hospitality to the cryptic. All poetry is coded, in the sense that it observes conventions, of metre or rhyme or whatever. To read poetry one must come to terms with those codes; the reader is prepared to negotiate language that is true not to what a speaker wishes to say, but is true to the codes of its writing. Experienced readers of poetry look for complexities and refinements of the code. In what we know as avant-garde or experimental verse (since Mallarmé and Pound), those codes have shifted markedly from the phonetic to the graphic. Typographical possibilities now extend beyond the shape of the stanza; Pound's "In a Station of the Metro" (1913) may be the earliest poem to use a typewriter's double space within a line of printed verse. Modern poetry, its development of free verse and open forms, has given shape to print, and has made a significant space of the page, most obviously in what we know as concrete poetry.
Graphic experimentation puts the emphasis on space; by contrast, phonetic experimentation, such as we find throughout the history of poetry, not least in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, has designs on time. Rhythmical variation in Tennyson, consonant clusters in Browning, the sprung rhythm of Hopkins, the lexical isolates of Hardy, all use the codes of metre, including the conventional pauses at line-endings and middles, to disrupt expectation and to force the reader to renegotiate the ratio between language and time. Pound and Eliot remain primarily concerned with phonetic effects, that is to say with designs on time, not least on the reader's time, and sense of timing. Poetry that foregrounds graphic experimentation solicits the eye to take cognizance of shape, of visual patterns. In doing so, time is suspended, or deemed irrelevant: there is no chronic measure by which to order the experience of a painting or a sculpture. In Anne Blonstein's use of notarikon, notably in "worked on screen" (Salzburg 2005), the reader must pick up the initial letter of each word in order to compose a new word or "hypogram." Such spatially distributed words keep the eye busy, but they leave the ear somewhat frustrated.
A challenge for the contemporary poet is to reconcile space and time, to realize the compounded or compacted power of words both spoken and written, whether arranged in sequence for the voice or disposed as pattern for the eye. This is, of course, no merely poetic challenge, nor is it a whimsical indulgence. Our sense of time has been largely constituted by the rhythms of spoken language, as our sense of space is given by the activity of reading, whether what's read be a situation or a page. There is nothing fanciful or obsolete in Shelley's claim that poets are the unacknowledged legislators; the less acknowledged they have become in modernity, the more powerful their legislation.
The poems in this issue of Salt are from "and my smile will be yellow," a sequence of sixty-six poems written through the Hebrew year 5766 (spanning October 2005 to September 2006 in the Gregorian calendar). There is one book in the Hebrew scriptures that has just sixty-six chapters and each of the sixty-six poems in Blonstein's sequence is thus coordinated with one of the chapters of Isaiah. Each poem encrypts time, not rhythmically but calendrically. The number of lines in the second section (stanza, verse paragraph) varies from one to twelve, and discloses the month of the Hebrew calendar. The number of words in the poem's title indicates the day of the week, running from Sunday the first day to Saturday the seventh. The number of words in italic in the entire poem is not the day of the month, though it gives us a clue.
What has all this to do with poetry? There is nothing Kabbalistic or hermetic in Anne Blonstein's practice: there is no idea of a secret message being buried deep within these poems, to be extracted only by the most determined reader. Encryption to serious purpose masks itself behind or within the banal. Here is nothing banal. This poetry celebrates the joy and inventiveness of encryption for its own sake. The aesthetic aspects of encryption have a value quite apart from any message or information that might be therein encoded. What matters is the life that a cryptic device methodically applied gives to words: "lying on an acquired bed of latin." Naive readers, those who are resistant to poetry, will always protest that if something needs to be said, it can and ought to be said plainly. Those who enjoy poetry are in on the open secret: that in a poem, any poem, it is the code, not the message, that matters. The art of poetry, the trajectory of its newnesses and renewings, is to be plotted along the line of shifting and sophisticating codes and encryptions. The only "real" secret embedded in these poems is the date of each one's composition. Hardly a state secret; yet it is a trade secret, or a craft secret: in the history of poetry there has never to our knowledge been a sequence of poems each of which embodies the date of its own making.
Thus these poems, spaced and shaped in ways that are hardly amenable to fluent articulation, yet conceal a temporal aspect. And it is a temporality that searches far beyond the poetic line. Language in its graphic emphasis makes for words embedded and embodied, not to be dissolved in the ephemera of voicing. Anne Blonstein's sequence suggests that if the embodiment of words is not to be a slack and vapid figure, words (and phrases, and poems) must be reckoned within time, as organisms that come into being on particular dates. A poetic sequence is a conventional term, slightly technical; however, now that computing and genetics have made of the root a verb and a gerund — sequencing — we are brought to realize how close, how all but inseparable, might be the cultural and the natural, the physical and the mental, the organic and the inorganic, the word and the thing. These constitutive distinctions of all western thinking are rendered vulnerable by what we are learning about our selves. And when we think of DNA and genetic sequencing, we will also attend phrasally to the encryption of genetic information. Such information includes the marking of time; and of course every transaction on the internet is chronically encrypted. Anne Blonstein's poetry, of sequence and encryption, offers us a model of how we are.

Study: L-arginine/l-citrulline Combo Outperforms Either Amino Acid in Isolation for No Activity
By Hank Schultz Nutra Ingredients USA
An animal study conducted by Kyowa Hakko has shown that the company's patented L-citrulline/L-arginine ingredient is effective in boosting plasma L-arginine levels enhancing nitric oxide bioavailability post supplementation.
The authors noted that supplementation with this combination has in the past shown anti-atherosclerotic effects. This new study lends credence to the idea that the combination, which has been patented by Kyowa Hakko may have shown these effects by enhancing NO bioavailability. Nitric oxide is a powerful signalling molecule, and enhancing the presence and activity of this molecule has been a goal for researchers in teh sports nutrition and endothelial function spheres for years for its effects in dilated the blood vessels and increasing blood flow.
"Growing evidences suggest endothelial dysfunction, which is strongly associated with reduced NO bioavailability, to be an initiating factor in cardiovascular diseases [7,8,36]. Our data suggests the clinical benefit on vascular function of L-citrulline plus L-arginine supplementation. However, we believe a further study in humans is needed to be able to present a therapeutic option with clinical utility," the authors wrote.
The study was conducted on 15 Sprague Dawley rats and nine New Zealand white rabbits. The animals were divded into three groups which received either L-citulline, L-arginine or a combination. The dosages were administered via a single oral gavage and were 2.85mmol/kg for the single amino acids or a half dosage of each ((1.43 mmol/kg) for the combination. , L-arginine (2.85mmol/kg) or a combination of each at half dosage. Blood samples were drawn at 30 minutes and one, two and four hours after the administration.
The study's authors noted that this is the first study to measure the effects of these two amino acids in this combination as compared to their effects in isolation. In both the rats and the rabbits, the combination showed a statistically greater levels of both L-arginine and plasma cGMP (Cyclic guanosine monophosphate) concentrations with the combination at the 30-minute and one our intervals.
"Our corroborative findings in this study propose a potentially novel strategy for rapidly potentiating NO-cGMP dependent reactions in the short-term, which is capable of increasing plasma L-arginine and NOx levels, as well as blood circulation rapidly and effectively, likely due to upregulation of the L- citrulline/L-arginine recycling pathway and eNOS expression," the authors wrote.

"All the Way with LBJ": The 1964 Presidential Election
Lyndon Johnson and the 1964 Presidential Election
Vietnam in the Campaign
Vietnam first emerged as a significant issue in the campaign after LBJ's "deeply dangerous game" speech at UCLA (Feb. 23). Its importance intensified with Lodge's emergence as a viable candidate in New Hampshire. This clip with Defense Secretary McNamara, from March 2, combined the two elements.
https://allthewaywithlbj.files.wordpress.com/2008/06/lbj_mcn_2march_lodgepoliticsvn2.mp3
President Johnson: Do you think it's a mistake to explain what I'm saying now about Vietnam, and what we're faced with?
Robert McNamara: Well, I do think, Mr. President, that it would be wise for you to say as little as possible.
The frank answer is we don't know what's going on out there. The signs I see coming through the cables are disturbing signs—poor morale in Vietnamese forces, poor morale in the armed forces, disunity, a tremendous amount of coup planning against [Nguyen] Khanh. About what you'd expect in a situation that's had three governments in [unclear] months—
President Johnson: Well, then why don't we take some pretty offensive steps pretty quickly, then? Why don't we commend Khanh on his operation and try to prop him up? Why don't we raise the salary of their soldiers to improve that morale, instead of waiting a long time? Why don't we do some of these things that are inclined to bolster 'em?
McNamara: Well, I'm not sure that they here—
President Johnson: I sure as hell don't want to get in the position of Lodge recommending to me—the one thing he recommended is "please give us a little more pay for our soldiers," and we turned him down.
McNamara: Oh, no, we've done that, sir.
President Johnson: We haven't acted. We said we're going to wait till you go out there [to Vietnam].
McNamara: Well, no. He knows there's money for that. There's no problem on that issue.
President Johnson: Well, then, why don't we clear it up, so that we get him answered?
Now, I think that politically—I'm not a military strategist—but I think that as long as we've got him [Lodge] there, and he makes recommendations, and we act on them, particularly if we act favorably, we're not in too bad a condition politically.
But I think when he wires us and says, "The only damn thing I want you to do is to give 'em an increase in pay because morale's terrible," and we say, "Well, wait," then if something happens in between, I think we are caught with our britches down.
By mid-April, after Lodge's New Hampshire win and lead in national polls, Johnson had all but turned over the short-term framing of Vietnam policy to Lodge, as he explained to National Security Advisor McGeorge Bundy.
https://allthewaywithlbj.files.wordpress.com/2008/06/lbj_bundy_14apr_give_lodge_what_he_wants.mp3
President Johnson: My judgment, Mac, is Lodge is coming back. He'll probably be back in June.
McGeorge Bundy: Yeah, it looks that way to me—
President Johnson: He's going to find some trouble; he's going to fall out with us about something—
Bundy: He's going to have differences with us, and it's going to be on this area [escalating the U.S. military involvement], I'm sure. There's no other.
President Johnson: And I'm not going to let him have any differences.
Bundy: Yeah.
President Johnson: So you just let—
Bundy: Well, then, we've got to get our plans; we'd better touch 'em up a little, then—
President Johnson: All right.
Bundy: Because that's what—we've got to be doing what he's recommending.
President Johnson: You just better talk to Bill [Bundy] out there in Manila—
Bundy: Yeah. I will.
President Johnson: —and tell him that Johnson's not going to have any differences with Lodge. He's going to have to run and catch me before he does. [Bundy cackles.] I'm going to approve every damn thing he does.
Bundy: That's it.
President Johnson: That's my strategy.
Ernest Gruening
The Tonkin Gulf Resolution effectively neutralized Vietnam as an issue in the campaign. But the day of the vote, the President expressed his displeasure with the two senators (Wayne Morse and Ernest Gruening) who voted no, along with Texas Republican congressman Ed Foreman, who criticized Johnson's premature announcement of the retaliatory raids.
https://allthewaywithlbj.files.wordpress.com/2008/06/lbj_mccormack_7ag_reaction_to_tgr_vote.mp3
President Johnson: That was a good vote you had today.
Speaker McCormack: Yes, it was very good. 414 to nothing; one present. What'd the Senate do?
President Johnson: 88 to 2. Morse and Gruening.
McCormack: I don't understand Gruening.
President Johnson: Oh, he's no good. He's worse than Morse. He's just no good. I've spent millions on him up in Alaska [in reconstruction funds after the March 1964 Alaska earthquake]. He's just no good.
And Morse is just as undependable and erratic as he can be.
McCormack: I know that. But I can't understand the other fellow.
President Johnson: Say, I wanted to point out this little shitass [Ed] Foreman today got up and said that we [Johnson] acted impulsively by announcing that we had an answer on the way [to the Tonkin Gulf incidents] before the planes dropped their bombs.
[Break.]
President Johnson: It's just a pure lie, and smokescreen.
McCormack: But he was booed two or three times. Tremendous booing on the Democratic side. He was—everybody knew he was just cheap and mean and contemptible. Well, you know what he is.
President Johnson: Yeah. Yeah, he's no good.

text:
The 235th Rifle Division was an infantry division of the Red Army, originally formed in the months just before the start of the German invasion, based on the shtat (table of organization and equipment) of September 13, 1939. As part of the 41st Rifle Corps it was soon sent to Northwestern Front to defend the distant approaches to Leningrad. Along with its Corps the division became part of the  Luga Operational Group. After Novgorod was captured the Luga Group was largely encircled and had to fight its way north toward the city, suffering considerable losses in the process. The losses to the 235th were greater than those of some others and after officially carrying on in the reserves of Leningrad Front for some time the division was officially disbanded in late December.

A new division, originally numbered as the 454th, began forming in the Siberian Military District in early December and was soon redesignated as the 2nd formation of the 235th. After forming it was assigned to 53rd Army in Northwestern Front and served in the battles around the Demyansk Pocket into early 1943. During Operation Kutuzov it took part in the battles that liberated Oryol, and then went into the reserves before moving north to join 4th Shock Army. As part of 1st Baltic Front it was involved in the grinding battles around the Vitebsk salient through the winter of 1943/44, mostly as part of 43rd Army. Early in the summer offensive the division won a battle honor, and then advanced into the Baltic states, receiving the Order of the Red Banner for its part in the fighting southwest of Riga. In January 1945 the 235th advanced into East Prussia and spent nearly the remainder of the war there, winning further distinctions in the battle for Königsberg. It remained in service into the following year but was disbanded in July 1946.

1st Formation
The division began forming on March 14, 1941, at Kineshma and Ivanovo in the Moscow Military District. When completed it had the following order of battle:
 732nd Rifle Regiment
 801st Rifle Regiment
 806th Rifle Regiment
 670th Artillery Regiment
 682nd Howitzer Artillery Regiment
 217th Antitank Battalion
 11th Antiaircraft Battalion
 289th Reconnaissance Battalion
 369th Sapper Battalion
 607th Signal Battalion
 384th Medical/Sanitation Battalion
 326th Chemical Defense (Anti-gas) Company
 702nd Motor Transport Battalion
 450th Field Bakery
 676th Field Postal Station
 544th Field Office of the State Bank
Maj. Gen. Timofei Vasilevich Lebedev was appointed to command on the day the division began forming and would lead it for the duration of this formation. This officer had previously led the 40th Rifle Division but had more recently served in the training establishment. At the time of the German invasion the division was still unfinished and only had a week to complete its formation before it joined the fighting front on June 30. At this time it was part of the 41st Rifle Corps with the 111th and 118th Rifle Divisions.

Defense of Leningrad
When it arrived at the front the 41st Corps came under the command of the 11th Army of Northwestern Front in the Pskov area. On July 4 the Red Army's chief of staff, Army Gen. G. K. Zhukov, ordered Lt. Gen. M. M. Popov's Northern Front to "immediately occupy a defense line along the Narva-Luga-Staraya Russa-Borovichi front". Popov formed the Luga Operational Group on July 6 and by July 14 the 41st Corps, which now also contained the 90th Rifle Division had been subordinated to it.

4th Panzer Group resumed its advance from it bridgehead east of the Velikaya River between Pskov and Ostrov on July 10. Although summer heat and difficult terrain delayed the pace of the blitzkrieg the panzers were still gaining about 30km per day. With the failure to halt the advance, Popov split up the Operational Group on July 23 into three separate sector commands. The Luga Sector came under the command of Maj. Gen. A. N. Astinin and was ordered to protect the Luga Highway axis south of Leningrad. His forces consisted of the 111th, 177th, and 235th Rifle Divisions and the 2nd Tank Division, plus assorted smaller units.

On August 8 Hitler ordered that Army Group North be reinforced with large armored forces and air support in preparation for a final drive on the city. Two days later elements of the LVI Motorized Corps, supported by the I and XXVIII Army Corps, advanced along the Luga and Novgorod axes toward the southern and southwestern approaches to Leningrad. The three Corps tore into and through the partially prepared defenses of the Luga Group and advanced on Krasnogvardeysk, while the 48th Army was forced out of Chudova and Tosno. These advances cut the line of communications to the Luga Group, which had to give up the town August 20. Fighting in encirclement, the nine Soviet divisions, including the 235th, had to cut their way out to the north and east in small parties, harried continually by the 8th Panzer, 4th SS, 269th and 96th Infantry Divisions conducting constant converging attacks on the Group from all sides. The German command estimated Red Army losses at 30,000 men, 120 tanks and 400 guns among the encircled forces.

As of September 1 the 235th was still in 41st Corps which was assigned to the Southern Operational Group of Leningrad Front, which had been formed on August 27 from part of Northern Front. Remnants of the division took up positions near Pushkin, but by now the combined strength of the 235th, 177th Rifle and 24th Tank Divisions was no more than 2,000 men. On September 8 elements of Army Group North captured Shlisselburg, completing the land blockade of Leningrad. Under the circumstances there was no immediate prospect of rebuilding these divisions and, although it was still officially in the reserves of Leningrad Front on October 1 it had disappeared a month later, although it was not officially abolished until nearly the end of December. By this time General Lebedev had been given command of the 191st Rifle Division; he was also serving as the deputy chief-of-staff of 4th Army. He was killed in action on January 26, 1942 during fighting along the Volkhov River when he was blown up by a German antitank mine.

2nd Formation
A new division, originally numbered as the 454th, began forming at Novosibirsk in the Siberian Military District on December 3, 1941, based on the shtat of July 29, but on January 7, 1942 it was redesignated as the 2nd formation of the 235th. Once formed its order of battle was very similar to that of the 1st formation:
 732nd Rifle Regiment
 801st Rifle Regiment
 806th Rifle Regiment
 682nd Artillery Regiment
 217th Antitank Battalion
 132nd Antiaircraft Battery (until March 15, 1943)
 123rd Mortar Battalion (until November 10, 1942)
 500th Reconnaissance Company
 369th Sapper Battalion
 607th Signal Battalion (later 607th Signal Company)
 384th Medical/Sanitation Battalion
 326th Chemical Defense (Anti-gas) Company
 588th Motor Transport Company
 441st Field Bakery
 906th Divisional Veterinary Hospital
 1701st Field Postal Station
 1071st Field Office of the State Bank
Col. Said-Garei Gaifutdinovich Gaifutdinov, a Tatar by nationality, was appointed to command the day the division began forming. He had previously served as chief-of-staff of the 194th and 245th Rifle Divisions as well as a senior political instructor. Once it completed recruiting the 235th had 11,733 personnel on strength, 50.4 percent of whom were under 25 years of age, a youthful cadre in good physical condition but most of whom had never had any military experience or peacetime training. As a result the division spent three months in Siberia training and a further two months in the Reserve of the Supreme High Command, eventually as part of 58th Army. When it arrived at the fighting front on April 26 it was assigned to 53rd Army in Northwestern Front near Demyansk.

Demyansk Pocket

By the time the division arrived the German II Army Corps in and around Demyansk had been partly relieved with the creation of the Ramushevo Corridor as a land line of communications to 16th Army, but this was a tenuous link and the pocketed troops still largely relied on air supply. 53rd Army contained the 166th, 235th, 241st and 250th Rifle Divisions as well as two rifle brigades and a number of ski battalions, and was assigned to contain the southern side of the pocket. An attempt in the first half of May by 11th Army and 1st Shock Army to close the corridor was a failure and the Front was given much of June to rebuild for a deliberate offensive in July. This began on the 17th and was also stymied with significant casualties, but 53rd Army played little role. A renewed effort in August followed a very similar pattern except the 53rd, 27th and 34th Armies around the periphery were ordered to launch local attacks; these were easily fended off by the well-fortified defenders. Colonel Gaifutdinov had left the division on July 14 to take command of the 91st Fortified Region and was replaced by Col. Filipp Nikolaevich Romashin, who had previously commanded the 370th Rifle Division.

On January 31, 1943, the German High Command ordered that the Demyansk salient be evacuated, in the wake of the encirclement and upcoming destruction of 6th Army at Stalingrad. By this time most of Northwestern Front's best divisions were battered wrecks. Not knowing the German plan, Marshal G. K. Zhukov was making plans for his Operation Polyarnaya Zvezda to finally crush the salient as a preliminary to the relief of Leningrad. The division had been earmarked for this operation, which began on February 15, 1943, but was repulsed with heavy losses. Operation Ziethen began on February 17, at which time the 235th was northwest of the village of Molvotitsy. 53rd Army attempted to harass the withdrawing forces, primarily with ski troops, but the German withdrawal freed up the reserves they needed to reinforce their lines along the Lovat River, and the "pursuit" through the devastated landscape achieved little. Colonel Romashin had been wounded and hospitalized on January 18 and was replaced in command by his deputy, Col. Anisim Illarionovich Svetlyakov, but after his recovery Romashin returned on March 11.

Operation Kutuzov
On the same date the STAVKA disbanded Bryansk Front and formed a new Reserve Front, based on the former Front's headquarters. Order No. 30071 stated (in part):This redeployment was in response to the continuing German successes in the Third Battle of Kharkov. In April the 2nd Reserve was redesignated as 63rd Army, and was assigned to the re-formed Bryansk Front. In May the 235th was moved to 3rd Army, still in Bryansk Front, where it would remain into July.

In the preparation for the summer offensive against the German-held Oryol salient the commander of 3rd Army, Lt. Gen. A. V. Gorbatov, formed a shock group of three rifle divisions on his left flank. The 235th and 380th were in the first echelon with the 308th Rifle Division in second echelon. The first echelon was reinforced with the 82nd and 114th Tank Regiments, an antitank regiment, and two self-propelled artillery regiments, including the 1538th (SU-152s). The 308th was planned to be committed on the morning of the second day. The Army's mission was to force the Zusha River, break through the German defense along the 9km sector from Izmailovo to Vyazhi before developing the offensive in the general direction of Staraya Otrada. Upon the shock group reaching the line DobrovodyProtasovo part of its forces would turn north to encircle and destroy the German Mtsensk grouping in conjunction with the 61st Army.

The offensive was originally scheduled to begin on July 11, but was postponed by 24 hours. Instead, the 3rd and 63rd Armies were ordered to carry out reconnaissance along the planned breakthrough sectors and, ideally, seize the first line of German trenches. This was to be carried out by picked battalions from each first echelon division with 3-5 tanks in immediate support. At 1150 hours on July 11, following a powerful artillery onslaught, the battalions crossed the Zusha and immediately encountered heavy rifle and machine gun fire. The 235th's battalion, which was attacking south of Maloe Izmailovo, suffered severe losses due to flanking fire from this strongpoint, called off the attack and soon fell back to its jumping-off position. The battalion of the 380th Division, on the other hand, achieved its objective.

The main offensive by the two Armies began with an artillery preparation at 0200 hours on July 12 by more than 4,000 guns and mortars. The rifle divisions forded the Zusha and by 0530 arrived at the German trenches. Ten minutes later a salvo from the Guards mortar units signalled the attack. Under this powerful fire the German forces put up weak resistance. Units of the 235th, despite the fact that the 114th Tanks could not cross the river near Izmailovo and was forced to divert to Vyazhi, broke through the German defense along its sector and by 1100 had captured Height 246.7. The 380th took advantage of this success and moved forward along its right flank. The German command reacted with heavy air attacks before noon and fresh infantry and tank forces were rushed to the breakthrough area. Several battalions of the 12th Panzer Division were brought up from Oryol and the division, now east of Yevtekhovo, was subjected to repeated counterattacks from several directions. Despite this the 235th and 380th had penetrated as far as 7km by day's end.

At 2115 hours the Front command ordered the 1st Guards Tank Corps to cross the Zusha and concentrate, in preparation for the two divisions reaching a line from Yevtekhovo to Grachevka, at which point the armor would enter the breach. At 0800 on July 13 the 235th, under cover of powerful artillery and air attacks, enveloped Yevtekhovo from the flanks and, following a short but stubborn battle, completely destroyed the German garrison and captured the village. Pursuing the subunits of the 171st Infantry Regiment (56th Infantry Division), which were retreating in disorder, by noon the division had reached the outskirts of Krasnyi. During the day the shock group had completed its assignments, creating the conditions for the commitment of 1st Guards Tanks, although this was delayed due to German air attacks. Despite these successes, Colonel Romashin was relieved of his command this day for organizational inefficiency and for the loss of control of his units in battle. He was transferred to the reserve. He was temporarily replaced by Col. Alexei Fyodorovich Kubasov, but this officer was in turn replaced on July 29 by Col. Luka Gerasimovich Basanets, who had previously commanded the 140th Rifle Division. Romashin's eclipse was short-lived; he was given command of the 135th Rifle Division on August 20 and would lead it for the duration, being promoted to the rank of major general on April 20, 1945.

On July 14 two German infantry battalions with tanks launched a powerful attack against the division's flank from the north, while a similar force struck the 308th Division. Both of these were repulsed with losses. As the Soviet offensive developed to the northwest the 56th Infantry continued to be worn down until by July 16 the 3rd Army's forces had reached the line of the Oleshnya River. The 235th overcame stubborn resistance to reach Leninskii Farm with its right flank, while its left flank consolidated northwest of Height 245.3. This line had been well-prepared in advance and the German command now threw in all available reserves to hold it. General Gorbatov decided to attack on the morning of July 17. This would be led by the newly-arrived 25th Rifle Corps. The 235th was tasked with tying down German forces with active operations along the LeninskiiAvvakumovskii sector with one rifle battalion while its remaining forces launched an attack along the front AvvakumovskiiHeight 245.3 in the direction of Dobrovody. The assault began at 1130 hours, following a 10-minute artillery and aviation onslaught. Much of the German artillery had escaped this preparation and fired intensively. Units of the division, cooperating with the 269th Rifle Division, twice attempted to break the defense, but were forced to fall back to their starting positions.

Under these circumstances the Front command decided to commit the 3rd Guards Tank Army to re-establish the momentum of the offensive. During July 18 German infantry and tanks repeatedly counterattacked along the entire 3rd Army front. At 0800 the next day the 3rd and 63rd Armies resumed their attack following a 10-minute artillery preparation. Supported by air attacks, 3rd Army's infantry and tanks broke through the defense, forcing the 2nd and 8th Panzer Divisions to fall back to the west. The 269th and 235th Divisions, having broken the forward edge of the defense of the 56th Infantry and units of 2nd Panzer, captured the villages of Bugry and Avvakumovskii. Overall the Oleshnya line was completely compromised, creating conditions for the commitment of 3rd Guards Tanks, which began at 1040 hours. As a result of this breakthrough the position of the German Mtsensk grouping was seriously threatened and overnight the German command decided to pull back behind the Oka River. Mtsensk was liberated by the 342nd Rifle Division on the morning of July 20. Gorbatov was determined to encircle and destroy the retreating grouping and on the morning of July 21 the 342nd and 235th Divisions were ordered to carry out this mission. In an energetic advance the 235th cut the paved road from Mtsensk to Oryol at 0400. Small groups of unsupervised German soldiers stretched along the road to the southwest, as well as individual vehicles and supply trains. Having left a powerful screen facing to the north, Colonel Kubasov dispatched his main forces toward Naryshkino, which was captured during the latter half of the day. Between the 3rd and 61st Armies a significant part of the Mtsensk grouping had been encircled and during the following day the two rifle divisions mopped up the pocket. About 200 German officers and men were killed and a large number taken prisoner, plus a good deal of equipment was captured.

Drive on Oryol
General Gorbatov now set his sights on Oryol. On the morning of July 22 elements of the 235th attempted to break out of their bridgehead over the Oka at Bogatishchevo but were unsuccessful. In light of this and other failures Gorbatov decided to consolidate along the river, bring up his artillery and prepare his crossing equipment. The Oka had also been prepared in advance as a defensive line. The Front command directed that the offensive resume on July 25 with 3rd Army attacking toward Oryol from the north and northwest while 63rd Army did the same from the south and southeast. Gorbatov chose to make his main effort with his right flank with the 235th, 269th and 283rd Rifle Divisions, the 25th Rifle Corps, and the 17th Tank Brigade, in the general direction of Andrianovo, Nelbova and Raspopovskie Dvoriki. The 235th was specifically ordered to defend the line KikinoNovaya Slobodka, with the 801st Rifle Regiment behind the right flank, ready commit behind the 269th. Once the division arrived at the line from Paslovo to Ivanovskaya Optukha the 308th Division was to launch an attack along the railroad toward Oryol.

As these preparations were being made the German forces were hastily constructing new defensive works as well as conducting artillery and mortar bombardments backed by air attacks. The latter particularly affected the 269th and 235th Divisions. Despite these measures the German command was preparing to evacuate the Oryol area. Once the offensive resumed it made relatively slow progress and Gorbatov was forced to call a halt late on July 27, with orders to hold the present line and prepare to attack on July 30. Fierce fighting continued through July 31 but faced heavy counterattacks, including during that night, but this proved to be a cover for the withdrawal. 3rd Army went over to the pursuit on August 1, gaining 12-14km during the day. Oryol was liberated on August 4, and on the same day the 235th was withdrawn into the Reserve of the Supreme High Command for a much-needed rest and rebuilding. At the beginning of September it was the sole division under 20th Army in the Reserve.

Into Western Russia and Belarus

When the division returned to the active front on September 27 it had moved a considerable distance to the north and west, joining the 83rd Rifle Corps of 4th Shock Army in Kalinin Front. As the Kalinin and Western Fronts battled into western Russia the STAVKA issued orders to the commander of the former, Army Gen. A. I. Yeryomenko, on September 19 to prepare a new operation to finally take Velizh, which was done the next day. Following this success the High Command set its sights on Vitebsk. Yeryomenko wrote on September 22 that he would "make the main attack with the 4th Shock, 43rd, and 39th Armies in the general direction of Vitebsk. To that end I will reinforce 4th Shock Army with four rifle divisions (the 234th, 235th, 117th, and 16th Lithuanian Rifle Divisions)..." Days later he began planning a supporting operation by 3rd Shock Army toward Nevel, which was an important railroad and road center and a large supply base; its liberation would go some way toward outflanking Vitebsk from the north.

Battle of Nevel
The offensive began at 0500 hours on October 6 with a reconnaissance-in-force, followed by a 90-minute artillery preparation at 0840 hours and airstrikes by 21st Assault Aviation Regiment. 3rd Shock went over to the attack at 1000 hours on the Zhigary-Shliapy sector, precisely at the boundary between Army Groups North and Center. 28th Rifle Division spearheaded the assault in the first echelon followed closely by an exploitation echelon consisting of the 21st Guards Rifle Division and the 78th Tank Brigade with 54 tanks. The assaulting force struck and demolished the 2nd Luftwaffe Field Division. Nevel itself was taken by a flying column by the end of the day. Meanwhile, 4th Shock launched its attack toward Gorodok. The Army commander, Maj. Gen. V. I. Shvetsov, had formed a shock group from two of his rifle corps, each advancing abreast in three echelons. 2nd Guards Rifle Corps led with its 360th Rifle Division, followed by 117th and 16th Lithuanian Divisions and two tank brigades. 83rd Corps had its 47th Rifle Division up, supported by 234th, 235th and 381st Rifle Divisions and another two tank brigades. Although there were no further panicked withdrawals by units of II Luftwaffe Field Corps the attack gained about 20km but ultimately faltered just short of the Nevel-Gorodok-Vitebsk railroad and highway.

Despite this initial success, for reasons that remain uncertain Yeryomenko reined in his advancing forces on October 9 and by the next day German reserves had managed to cordon off the huge salient, which thwarted any immediate push toward Vitebsk. After mid-month 4th Shock conducted nearly constant operations either to improve its positions or defend against German counterattacks. A more determined effort began on October 17 when 83rd Corps and 2nd Guards Corps struck the 129th Infantry Division and the flank and rear of II Luftwaffe Corps, threatening to collapse the defenses north of Vitebsk. In response the 20th Panzer Division, although it had fewer than 20 tanks on strength, was ordered to counterattack and managed to contain the advance after two days of heavy fighting. Nevertheless the Luftwaffe troops were forced to withdraw to new defensive positions. On October 20 Kalinin Front was redesignated as 1st Baltic Front; at about this time Yeryomenko reported that his rifle divisions had been reduced to from 3,500 - 4,500 personnel each.

Polotsk-Vitebsk Offensive
Colonel Basanets left the division on October 24 and was replaced the next day by Col. Andrei Glebovich Yatsun. The former would go on to lead the 192nd and 39th Rifle Divisions, while the latter had previously commanded the 15th Rifle Brigade and the 118th Fortified Region.

In an early morning fog on November 2 the 3rd and 4th Shock Armies penetrated the defenses of the left flank of 3rd Panzer Army southwest of Nevel. After the breakthrough, which opened a 16km-wide gap, 3rd Shock turned to the north behind the flank of 16th Army while 4th Shock moved southwest behind 3rd Panzer Army. While 4th Shock's 60th Rifle Corps formed the shock group for this attack the 83rd Corps launched local attacks and protected the 60th's left flank. At the same time the Front's 43rd and 39th Armies were also attacking eastward along the SmolenskVitebsk road. Due to increasing German resistance and deteriorating weather the Soviet advance was brought to a temporary halt on November 11. The STAVKA ordered a regrouping which resulted in 83rd Corps moving to 43rd Army on November 14 with the objective of cutting the rail line between Zhukovo and Ezerishche. In another regrouping later in the month the Corps went to 11th Guards Army, still in 1st Baltic Front.

Gorodok Offensive
By this time forces of 3rd Panzer Army were still clinging to a deep salient running north from Gorodok to not far south of Nevel, deeply flanked by 4th Shock to the west and the remainder of 1st Baltic Front to the east. For the new operation the 11th Guards and 4th Shock Armies, with tank and cavalry support, "were to penetrate the enemy's defenses on the flanks of the Gorodok salient, encircle and destroy his grouping by concentric attacks in the direction of Bychikha Station, and then capture Gorodok and Vitebsk while developing the attack to the south." The 43rd and 39th Armies would support the attack. At this time 83rd Corps had only the 234th and 235th Divisions under command and was deployed on 11th Guards' left flank, directly north of the German-held village of Khvoshno, with the 235th to the east.

The offensive kicked off on December 13 following a two-hour artillery preparation on the 11th Guards Army's front. Only the 84th Guards Rifle Division of 36th Guards Rifle Corps was able to penetrate the first defensive positions on the first day, and it was soon halted by reserves of the 129th Infantry Division. Alarmed by this near-failure the Army commander, Lt. Gen. K. N. Galitskii, decided to shift the main attack into this sector. After regrouping overnight the 84th Guards completed the penetration after a further artillery preparation the next morning. Now tank and mechanized forces were committed into the breach, as well as the 16th and 83rd Guards Rifle Divisions to expand the gap and guard the flanks. With the German line unhinged the 83rd Corps was able to force its way past Khvoshno against resistance from the 6th Luftwaffe Field Division. By the end of December 15 the Army had nearly completed encircling the 129th and 211th Infantry Divisions in separate pockets. 3rd Panzer Army requested permission to take the front back but was refused as Hitler remained determined to close the "Nevel Gap". A day later the 211th was encircled and had no choice but to attempt a breakout, which occurred overnight on December 16/17 at the cost of 2,000 of its 7,000 troops and all of its artillery, heavy weapons and vehicles.

As the advance continued the 234th and 235th Divisions continued to pursue in a southeast direction, tying-in with the 43rd Army, before being re-directed to the southwest toward Gorodok, still driving elements of II Luftwaffe Corps ahead of them. By the end of December 21 the 234th was in the vicinity of Vakulenka, roughly 15km east of Gorodok. The town was liberated on December 24 following a night attack. Just before this took place Colonel Yatsun became ill, and would soon be hospitalized in Moscow. After he recovered he was transferred to the training establishment and never held another field command. He was replaced on December 23 by Col. Pavel Filippovich Kuklin who had earlier led the 44th Mountain Cavalry Division and the 40th Rifle Brigade.

Third Vitebsk Offensive
The victory at Gorodok was followed by an extensive regrouping in which 83rd Corps returned to 4th Shock Army while the 235th remained in 11th Guards Army, taking over the sector occupied by the 16th and 36th Guards Rifle Corps, allowing their divisions to shift to the west. The division was spread over a wide frontage with the 806th Rifle Regiment north and east of Losvida Lake east to Gorchikhina, the 732nd Regiment in and around Mosty, and the 801st Regiment in the Lugovaya area. Together they were facing remnants of the 129th Infantry and 3rd Luftwaffe Field Division. This latest effort to capture Vitebsk ran until January 5, by which time the division had been subordinated to 36th Guards Corps and brought in to back up the 16th Guards Division before the fighting tailed off in mutual exhaustion.

Prior to the renewal of the offensive on February 3 the commander of 1st Baltic Front, Army Gen. I. K. Bagramyan, activated the 103rd Rifle Corps and assigned the 11th Guards, 29th, and 235th Rifle Divisions to it. The Corps took over the sector from Losvida Lake southward to Mashkina at the northern extremity of the Vitebsk salient on 11th Guards Army's left wing. This permitted the Army to shift it 8th and 16th Guards Corps farther southwestward to the main attack sector south of Zaronovskoe Lake. The 235th remained on its previous sector north and east of Losvida Lake and saw little action before the offensive was halted on February 16. Before the end of the month the division was transferred to the 92nd Rifle Corps of 43rd Army. It would remain under this Army command almost continuously for the duration of the war.

Fourth Vitebsk Offensive
A renewed offensive was planned to begin on February 29 but before it could begin the commander of the 3rd Panzer Army, Col. Gen. G.-H. Reinhardt, disrupted the plan by shortening his defensive line around the city. The STAVKA took this as a preliminary to a full withdrawal from the Vitebsk salient, and ordered a pursuit. This led to a confused struggle on 43rd Army's sector north of Vitebsk. 92nd Corps launched probing attacks against 4th Luftwaffe Field Division's defenses in the vicinity of Losvida and Savchenki only to suffer a sharp rebuff. A further effort by the Corps' 334th Rifle Division struck the German 246th Infantry Division and forced it back to new defenses 2km west of Babinichi, but by the end of March 5 the "pursuit" had shot its bolt.

Operation Bagration

Colonel Kuklin left the division on April 6 and was placed at the disposal of the Military Council of 43rd Army; he would later serve as deputy commander of 306th Rifle Division. He was replaced the next day by Col. Ivan Lukich Lutskevich, who had previously led the 5th Fortified Region. This officer would be promoted to the rank of major general on September 13. During April the 235th was moved again, now to the 22nd Guards Rifle Corps, but before the start of the summer offensive it came under command of 60th Rifle Corps, along with the 334th Division.

At the start of the offensive on June 22, the Corps was part of the assault forces of 43rd Army. Following a very heavy artillery barrage and air attacks, 60th Corps passed through both the first and second German defense lines and reached the Obol River. By the evening of June 23, the two divisions were pressing remnants of German Corps Detachment 'D' south towards the Dvina River west of Vitebsk. On the following day several bridgeheads were taken and crossing operations began on both sides of Beshankovichy. Overnight on June 25/26 60th Corps met the 19th Guards Rifle Division of 39th Army at Gnezdilovichi, closing the ring, and through the day forces of both Armies cleared Vitebsk. On the same date the division was recognized for its role in liberating the city, towards which the Red Army had struggled for so many months, and was given that name as an honorific:

Baltic Offensives
Following this victory the division joined in the pursuit of the broken remnants of Army Group Center, and by the second week in July had nearly reached the Lithuanian border just east of Švenčionys. Over the following months the advance slowed, and by August 1 the division found itself in the vicinity of Kupiškis, moving in the direction of Riga. By this time it had returned to 92nd Corps. Two weeks later, as 3rd Panzer Army launched Operation Doppelkopf, the 235th had taken up positions at Bauska, Latvia, holding along the Lielupe River. It remained in this area into mid-September when the Riga Offensive began. By October 5 it had relocated to the area around Radviliškis, Lithuania, in preparation for the Memel Offensive. In recognition of its successes in the battles southeast of Riga the division was awarded the Order of the Red Banner on October 22.

Into East Prussia
The STAVKA issued orders on December 6 to General Bagramyan that he was to concentrate 4-5 rifle divisions on the left flank of 43rd Army by December 28 in order to assist 3rd Belorussian Front in defeating the German group of forces in and around Tilsit and rolling up the defense along the Neman River at the outset of the upcoming offensive into East Prussia. Before the start of this operation on January 13, 1945, some of these divisions, including the 235th, were incorporated into the 54th Rifle Corps; it would remain under this command for the duration. In the first days the Corps forced a crossing of the Neman and then advanced along the south bank, breaking into Tilsit during the latter half of January 19 and capturing it after a short battle. In recognition, the part of the 235th involved was awarded a battle honor: Immediately after this the 43rd Army as a whole was transferred to 3rd Belorussian Front.

The Front now began a pursuit of the defeated German IX Army Corps with its right wing Armies; the German remnants were attempting to retreat behind the Alle and Deime Rivers. By the end of January 22 the 43rd Army had made a fighting advance of 23km and the 54th Corps' main force had reached Kelladen while other elements of the Army were on the east shore of the Kurisches Haff. The German forces were hurriedly fortifying the approaches to Labiau and were trying to organize a defense along the east bank of the Deime, which was the last line of defense before Königsberg.

Combat operations continued overnight on January 22/23. At dawn the 43rd Army attacked Labiau following a short artillery preparation. The defenders, employing heavy machine gun and mortar fire, initially stopped the 103rd Corps' units at the river, but eventually its 115th Rifle Division and 54th Corps' 263rd Rifle Division forced a crossing and outflanked the town from north and south, while the 319th Rifle Division broke in from the east. Labiau, with most of its garrison, was in Soviet hands by the end of the day and the Army was directed to continue its advance to the west. By the end of January 26 it had reached a line from Postnikken to Zelweten. From here it developed its attack along the seacoast, pursuing the remnants of two German infantry divisions and reaching the line StombeckNorgenen while 54th Corps repelled four counterattacks by tanks and infantry. With Königsberg cut off the Front now focused on eliminating the German forces southwest of the city in the Preußisch EylauLandsbergBartenstein area, but this did not directly involve the 43rd Army. During February the 54th Corps was transferred to 39th Army, which became part of the Zemland Group of Forces effective February 24. On February 19 the 235th was awarded the Order of Suvorov, 2nd Degree, and the 682nd Artillery Regiment was given the Order of the Red Banner, both for their roles in the crossing of the Deime and the capture of Labiau, while the 806th Rifle Regiment received the Order of Suvorov, 3rd Degree, for its part in the battle for Tilsit.

Battles for Königsberg and Samland

By the beginning of April the 54th Corps had returned to 43rd Army, which was also part of the Zemland Group. This Group was disbanded on April 3 and the Army reverted to direct command of 3rd Belorussian Front. The Army was deployed northwest of Königsberg on an attack frontage about 3km wide from Katzenblick to Amalienhof with 54th Corps on the left flank. It faced elements of the 561st Infantry Division. Following four days of fire reconnaissance and destruction of fixed defenses by artillery and aviation, the assault began with an artillery preparation at 1030 hours on April 6; the infantry and armor began moving forward at noon. During the day the Army advanced 3km and cleared 20 city blocks. As the weather cleared the next day the Red Air Forces intensified its bombardment and the infantry was reinforced with artillery firing over open sights. 43rd Army captured one permanent fort and seized another 20 blocks. The advance continued on April 8 and in the afternoon 43rd Army linked up with 11th Guards Army in the Amalienau area while 54th Corps assisted units of 50th Army in capturing the Palfe area. Near the end of the next day the German garrison capitulated. In recognition of this victory three subunits of the 235th were awarded honorifics:

Following this victory the 43rd Army was given a role in clearing the German forces from the Sambia Peninsula. It was assigned an attack frontage of 7-8km and was to advance in the direction of Nepleken. The operation began at 0800 hours on April 13 following a one-hour artillery preparation and on the first day the Army gained 5km and took 1,500 prisoners. The next day it advanced along the north shore of the Frisches Haff, and took the strongpoint of Großheidekrug. On April 17 it captured the town of Fischhausen in cooperation with 39th Army and the peninsula was effectively cleared. Shortly after the 43rd was transferred to 2nd Belorussian Front and ended the war under that command. General Lutskevich left the division of April 22 in order to attend the Voroshilov Academy and was replaced by Col. Viktor Ivanovich Rutko, who had previously led the 352nd Rifle Division.

Postwar
When the fighting ended the men and women of the division shared the full title of 235th Rifle, Vitebsk, Order of the Red Banner, Order of Suvorov Division. (Russian: 235-я стрелковая Витебская Краснознаменная ордена Суворова дивизия.) On May 17 the 801st Rifle Regiment was awarded the Order of Suvorov, 3rd Degree, while the 217th Antitank Battalion received the Order of Alexander Nevsky, both for their roles in the battle for Königsberg.

In accordance with STAVKA Order No. 11097 May 29 the division, along with its Corps and Army, was transferred to the Northern Group of Forces. On July 25 Maj. Gen. Mikhail Fyodorovich Borisov took over command and would lead the division until its disbandment; he had previously led the 336th Rifle Division. In July 1946 the division was disbanded, one month ahead of the disbandment of 43rd Army as a whole.

Field Day announces first names for 2013: TNGHT, Karenn,...
News I By FactI 21.11.12
Field Day announces first names for 2013: TNGHT, Karenn, Animal Collective and more feature
East London festival Field Day has announced its first line-up details for 2013.
In seven years of operation Field Day has ascended to the top rung of the UK festival circuit, and takes place each Summer in Hackney's Victoria Park. 2012 saw the festival switch from its usual August slot in the calendar to May so as not to clash with London's Olympic Games, and it's a decision that must have worked: despite no Usain Bolt in town (potential DJ sets aside), 2013 will again see a Field Day in May.
The first names announced for Field Day 2013 are, as you'd expect, some of the biggest. Two of 2012's hottest live commodities, TNGHT and Disclosure, lead the charge, with Animal Collective, Bat for Lashes, Four Tet, Fucked Up, Daphni, Jacques Greene and a Hessle Audio showcase (Ben UFO, Pearson Sound and Pangaea) not far behind. Blawan and Pariah will take their live show as Karenn – recently debuted at London's Fabric – to the park, as will How to Dress Well, Julio Bashmore and Mulatu Astatke.
Charlie Boyer & The Voyeurs, Chvrches, Daughter, Django Django, Tim Burgess, Do Make Say Think, Emeralds, Everything Everything, Francois & The Atlas Mountains, Ginger Baker Jazz Confusion, James Yorkston, Thomas Mapfumo and Vondelpark round up the first line-up announcement. For more information and early bird tickets, head to the Field Day website.

Quotes about Marcus Raskin 5
Raskin was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, the second son of Russian Jewish immigrants. His father, Ben Raskin, and mother, Anna Goodman Raskin, owned a plumbing store in Milwaukee where his father worked as a master plumbing contractor. At the age of 16, Raskin, a young piano prodigy, left home to study at New York's Juilliard School with Rosina Lhevinne and Lee Thompson. Although he has remained an accomplished pianist throughout his life, he abandoned a career in music to study at the University of Chicago. At the University of Chicago, Raskin studied with Rexford Guy Tugwell, the preeminent economist and member of FDR's Brain Trust, and Quincy Wright, the famous international law scholar, for whom Raskin served as an assistant during his law school years. He graduated from the University of Chicago with a B.A. in liberal arts in 1954 and with a Juris Doctorate from the University of Chicago Law School in 1957.
Shortly after marrying his first wife, novelist Barbara Bellman Raskin, Marcus Raskin moved to Washington, DC in 1958 where he became a legislative counsel to a group of liberal congressmen, including David Riesman, historian H. Stuart Hughes, and former finance advisor to Franklin D. Roosevelt, James Warburg.
In 1961, Raskin was recommended by Harvard sociologist David Riesman and members of Congress to John F. Kennedy. Raskin served as Bundy's assistant on national security affairs and disarmament as a member of the Special Staff of the National Security Council. In 1962, Raskin was a member of the U.S. delegation to an 18-nation disarmament conference in Geneva.
However, tensions ran high with Bundy, who supported the escalation of U.S. military engagement in Indochina at that time. These tensions led to Raskin's reassignment in the Bureau of the Budget, today the Office of Management and Budget, where he continued his service on the Presidential Panel on Education. On the panel, Raskin's passion for education developed as he wrote pioneering papers on the consequences of technology and the need for truly democratic education and scientific research.[1]
The Institute for Policy Studies
In 1963, Raskin left government service, with Richard Barnet, a State Department official in the US Arms Control and Disarmament Agency, and the two pursued their common dream of creating an independent institution, outside of government, to critique official policy.
Much of Raskin's initial work with IPS focused on opposing the Vietnam War. He co-authored the Vietnam Reader with Bernard Fall in 1965, which was used in dozens of teach-ins across the country. In 1968, he was indicted—along with William Sloane Coffin, Dr. Benjamin Spock, Michael Ferber, and Mitchell Goodman—for conspiracy to aid resistance to the draft. The group became known as the "Boston 5." In the case, Telford Taylor, prosecutor at the Nuremberg Trials, served as the defense attorney for Raskin. Not long after his acquittal, Raskin published the book Washington Plans an Aggressive War, with Barnet and Ralph Stavins. These two books would begin Raskin's critique of the national security state, a term he coined, which he would continue to assess critically in future works.
With the publication of his book Being & Doing in 1971, Raskin became one of the country's leading thinkers on the theory of "social reconstruction." Raskin's thinking was largely influenced by the work of American pragmatist John Dewey, French existentialist Jean-Paul Sartre, and the politics of the New Left. According to Library Journal, Raskin "foresees a peaceful process of non-Marxist reconstruction that will replace authoritarianism and the status quo with politics of the people and a redefined social ethic."
In 1977, after conducting a first study of budget and its spending priorities, 56 members of Congress, led by Congressional Black Caucus Dean John Conyers, requested that IPS undertake a deeper analysis of the federal budget. Raskin directed the project, which led to the publication of the 1978 book The Federal Budget and Social Reconstruction. In the 1980s, Raskin became a leader in the anti-nuclear movement as the Chair of the Sane-Freeze, now Peace Action, campaign. He also worked with labor leaders to organize the Progressive Alliance, a coalition of 16 labor unions and 100 public interest groups that laid out a progressive alternative political agenda.
Raskin continues as an activist and public scholar, serving as a Distinguished Fellow of the The Nation magazine. He also advises the Congressional Progressive Caucus and conceptualized the network of local elected officials that evolved into the Institute for Policy Studies' Cities for Peace project, which has coordinated hundreds of city council resolutions against the Iraq War.
Raskin's most recent scholarship includes serving as the editor of a series of books laying out Paths for the 21st Century. The goal of this project is to generate ideas and proposals, across disciplinary lines and founded upon Raskin's notion of reconstructive knowledge, which catalyze citizen action and help other scholars and activists pursue a progressive basis for a new society.
Raskin has been married twice. In 1957, he married author Barbara Bellman from Minneapolis.[2] They had three children: Erika Raskin Littlewood, Jamie Raskin http://articles/Jamie_Raskin Noah Raskin.[2] They divorced in 1980.[2] Barbara went on to write the novel "Hot Flashes" and later married author Anatole Shub.[2] He currently resides in Washington, DC with his wife, Lynn Randels Raskin with whom he has one child Eden Raskin.[3] He also has nine grandchildren. Raskin continues in his passion of classical music, releasing his first piano recording Elegy for the End of the Cold War in 2004.

Reporter Flees To London After Antifa Death Threats
Independent journalist and editor of the Post Millennial Andy Ngo has fled his home for London after telling Sky News in a recent interview that he no longer feels safe. The Portland-based journalist explains how he has reported all threats to authorities, but they've refused to protect him. Antifa extremists have continued death threats and visits to his family's home.
"For a number of months now, there have been increasing threats of violence against me, promises by Antifa extremists to kill me. Even when I provided names of some of the suspects, nothing was done," Ngo said.
Ngo said it "pained" him to leave the U.S, since his parents had come to America as political refugees, but that threats against his life have increased by Antifa extremists. He said he didn't know how long he'd be staying in Great Britain. The Portland Police Bureau released an official statement regarding Ngo's claims, saying that they would continue to document reported crimes and follow up as information becomes available.
Ngo has been regularly reporting on violence from Antifa members, often inserting himself into dangerous situations to show the rest of the world what is happening. In 2019, he was hospitalized after getting punched and kicked in the head by Antifa members, as well as being assaulted with pepper spray and cement milkshakes.
He had sued Rose City Antifa, an active Antifa group founded in Portland, seeking $900,000 in damages and moved forward in his legal battle Dec. 15 after a Multnomah County circuit judge denied a special motion to strike down the suit.
Ngo also talked about his upcoming book "Unmasked: Inside Antifa's Radical Plan to Destroy Democracy" which reveals his experience documenting some of the group's more violent protests, along with being physically attacked by some of the members.
While Amazon has seen popularity ahead of its release, a crowd of Antifa members gathered around iconic Portland bookstore Powells Books to demand they pull his book from their website. Powells Books had announced they wouldn't sell his book on its shelves, but nothing is ever good enough for Antifa.
Ngo also talked about the politicians who had condemned the January 6 riot at the U.S Capitol, saying they were "at best silent" during the intense summer riots last year when his city was under siege. He documented federal buildings being destroyed and small businesses looted while a handful of politicians publicly promoted crowd-funded campaigns for protesters.
Left-leaning media outlets continue to ignore one of the largest violent groups forcing people out of the country. They'd rather investigate and report on one incident at the U.S Capitol than the months of criminal activity sweeping communities and small businesses nationwide.

The present reconstruction aims at a brief survey of the most important aspects of the concept of "truth" in Karl Jaspers's later work On Truth. I will claim that for Jaspers truth is not something we possess, but is to be conceived as the way upon which we, as human beings, strive for knowledge. In order to achieve this, I will focus in the first part on a conceptual reconstruction about what is meant by Jaspers when he speaks of truth in On Truth. The second part of this contribution will focus on a particular kind of truth, the truth of sciences (or so-called "consciousness in general"). In the third and last part, I will propose an original interpretation that goes beyond Jaspers's text itself, by arguing that this conception of truth as a "way" implies an entanglement between ethics and knowledge that I term, in accordance with other attempts in the history of philosophy, "ethics of knowledge".


GeneratePress is a free WordPress theme made by Tom Usborne, a programmer from Canada. I have really seen it for years from the WordPress repository. Most of you know that I am pretty picky when it comes to web performance, so I tend to dismiss everything in the repository. Typically because a great deal of things on there is not that good, or not supported for long. Nonetheless, in this circumstance, that was a mistake. The theme now has more than half a million downloads, 80,000+ active matches, with over 500 5-star evaluations. So clearly Tom is doing some thing right here.
I Really set up the free version of the motif and in a matter of 15 minutes bought the premium version. I could tell right off the bat, the developer was thinking precisely how I was envisioning a theme should work. And I will go into that more below, but let's first look at a number of the qualities. I'm going to be covering the premium edition of the theme, because it's worth very penny. Actually, Tom, if you ever read this and so are seeing Scottsdale, Arizona, coffees on me.
The Documentation is also incredible. Besides have great documentation on their website, the theme has existed long enough that what I wholeheartedly during the setup process was found inside a few seconds from their forum.
Now it is Time to the fun part! I test a brand new theme right out of the box without any customizations to see how quickly the foundation is. This tells me a great deal of what I can expect by the time I add everything to it. Running the inventory GeneratePress WordPress theme on Kinsta hosting clocked in at a whopping 265 ms load time. I was quite impressed.
This is a programmer that cares about performance! And I have Seen exactly the same throughout each of the premium add-ons. They are as small as you can possibly get them. In reality, Font Awesome is probably the biggest file included. And that isn't even his. Together with Font Awesome 5 arriving around the corner, we could expect that to secure smaller too.
The premium add-ons Are installation in what I would call a modular layout. You can activate/deactivate whatever you are not using to ensure they do not load on your site. As the co-developer of this perfmatters plugin that has a script manager built-in, I felt right at home with this. Everything ought to be designed this way.
The WordPress customizer options is where GeneratePress really shines! Remember, lots of these options are permitted by the premium add-ons. I can't show you everything, otherwise, we'd be here all day. However, let me show you couple which actually come in handy.
You May Want to Also catch his incredible WP Show Posts plugin also. See my featured articles on the sidebar of this website? That is using the WP Show Posts plugin. I have it set to show posts from a particular"featured" category. You can also have it show past modified/updated articles, recent articles, etc.. I am using the free version and it works terrific.
The Segments add-in in the premium edition of GeneratePress lets you perform all sorts of things in terms of design. Think of it like a page builder without the bloat. GeneratePress is certainly not just for blogs! I'm in fact utilizing GeneratePress to our ecommerce site (perfmatters.io) which is operating Easy Digital Downloads. Don't hesitate to look it over. However, as you can see below, it looks nothing like a site.
For all those Of you who are regular readers, you probably did not even notice I changed the whole theme that powers woorkup.com. It just took me about an hour to get GeneratePress to mimic my MyThemeShop theme which I had spent a year customizing. Here's a comparison below.
My old MyThemeShop motif was pretty quickly, but I invested a great deal of time customizing it. In reality, I've gotten a lot of emails from you guys asking me to print all my customizations. My advice now is, just get GeneratePress!
Together with the New GeneratePress theme I managed to attain faster speeds and 600 fewer lines of code! And remember, I do not have a kid theme. All the customizations were made using the awesome GP hooks and snippets plugin (both CSS and PHP).
Like the WordPress theme I have working on woorkup? You're in luck. Tom asked if he can create a replica of woorkup for the brand new GeneratePress blog library. I'm pleased to let you know that you can now install my woorkup motif in your GeneratePress site with just a click! It's called the Marketer motif. Get started with a great blog design immediately.
Additionally, I Moved within my personal website, brianjackson.io, to GeneratePress. Previously I was using a motif from Array Themes. It's a fairly basic minimal website, as I do not use it to get much. Since you can see it loaded pretty fast.
I was Able to replicate the whole look 100 percent in GeneratePress in under an hour. And as you can see it loads even faster! Amazing. I was able to eliminate a few plugins that weren't needed because of GP.
I had been Able to again move everything over and get it looking just how I wanted it in under one hour. And since you can view it loads even faster! Amazing. I managed to get rid of a total of four plugins and it dropped my total page burden 2x!
I can not express my Excitement about locating GeneratePress and I'm moving over all of my websites to it (which includes some EDD e-commerce websites ). After I've got my 9 websites all running in GP with no child topics, my entire life is going to be a breeze! The developer has revived my faith in multi-purpose themes, and that when done the correct way, can actually perform faster.
So To create GeneratePress look how you want it to, you'll almost certainly will need to go in and customize things. And though the significant advantage of GeneratePress is how customizable it is, some users, particularly casual users, do not like having to make those changes .
All In all, GeneratePress will provide you a lot more customization choices in the WordPress Customizer than most other topics. This amount of detail may be a little overwhelming if you are a newcomer. But as soon as you understand the way the preferences come together, you'll have full control on how your site looks.
Across All its features, GeneratePress consistently includes a focus on excellent performance and tidy code. The entire theme is less than 30 kB, which will be about as little as you'll ever find for a WordPress theme. Even most other optimized WordPress themes are still 200+ kB. And some badly coded topics can even surpass 1 MB!
Sections — that is kind of like lightweight page building. It permits you to create different"sections" on a page, each with their own design and column settings.
Nevertheless, If you're serious about using GeneratePress, I believe you should purchase the GeneratePress Premium plugin, as that's what makes the theme so flexible. The free version does not give you nearly as numerous settings in the WordPress Customizer. And you'll also miss out on the premade Site Library.
GeneratePress Premium can be still quite affordable. It costs only $39.95, which gives you use on unlimited websites . You'll also get a 40% discount if you want to renew to keep on receiving support and upgrades after the initial year (you can, of course, keep using GeneratePress after the initial year without beating — you won't receive any more updates).
However, If you're ready to spend time altering settings, GeneratePress' style controls give you the flexibility to turn it into any type of WordPress website. Or, you may even be able to locate a starter website that fits your needs to save some time.
