Rolf Hougen has been a lifelong preserver, photographer and curator of Yukon heritage. Hougen partnered with radio host, historian and storyteller, Les McLaughlin to create the Yukon Nuggets. Les researched, wrote and voiced these amazing stories and they became a staple of CKRW.
Rolf and Marg Hougen wanted the work that Rolf, Les and CKRW created to be available to a wider audience. Expanding on their partnership with MacBride Museum, the Nuggets content and website has been revamped and is now available in the Telegraph Office at MacBride as well as online.
Rolf Hougen
Rolf Hougen's father arrived in the Yukon in the summer of 1906 via the White Pass railroad. Not inside a rail car mind you. Rather, Berent Hougen walked along the tracks from Skagway with a pack on his back. It took him five days to reach Whitehorse. He had gone to sea at age 14 on a square rigger ship and sailed around the world twice with a two-year stop in Australia before heading for the Klondike.
In Whitehorse, he built a log raft and headed down the Yukon river to Dawson where he got work with the big dredging companies. Berent stayed in the Klondike three years, and then moved to Cripple Creek, Alaska where he and a partner operated a hotel for a few years.
In 1913, he sold out and returned to Norway. There, he met and married his wife Margrethe and the following year, they emigrated to Canada. The dream of the Yukon stayed with Berent and in 1944, he returned with Margrethe and the youngest of his seven children, a fourteen-year old boy named Rolf.
With the arrival of the Alaska Highway, the Yukon was once again booming. In 1944, the Hougen's opened a small store selling Rawleigh products and photographic supplies.
Berent worked on the highway, while Margrethe, with young Rolf's help after school, ran the store. In 1946, they moved from Wood Street and Second Avenue to the White Pass Hotel building.
In 1947, grade twelve graduate Rolf took over the full-time management of the company and in 1949, Hougens became a real department store with the acquisition of a much larger building on Main Street.
In 1952, fire raged through the building which was partially destroyed. Undaunted, the resourceful Hougens bought the bowling alley next door and built a larger store. Still, it wasn't all work and no play for young Rolf in the early days. He was one of the founders of the Young People's Association. He had an interest in photography and took pride in photographing numerous community events.
In 1955, Rolf married Margaret Van Dyke of Edmonton and the couple embarked on a four- month honeymoon to Europe. Back in Whitehorse, they began a family that grew to six children and eighteen grandchildren.
The fifties were a time of change. The isolated Yukon began to take on modern amenities such as cable television with Rolf Hougen as a member of the founding fathers of WHTV.
It was a primitive television operation by any standards; broadcasting on just one black and white channel for four hours a day. The prerecorded programs were six months old. By 1965, the programs delivered on tape by truck, were only a week old.
Over the next twenty years, the forward thinking Hougen put his money into the Yukon. He developed the Klondike Broadcasting Company, owned the local Ford dealership, and the Arctic Investment Corporation, one of the few investment firms that Les McLaughlin's brother, a devout family man without a big income, would trust because, he said, it was owned by Rolf Hougen.
In 1976 Margaret and Rolf took the family to France to live for a year in order for the children to experience the Cultures of Europe and to learn the French language. Not long after returning, Rolf was asked to serve as the Honourary French Consul for the Yukon for which, subsequently, the President of France appointed him an "Officer of the Ordre National du Merite".
In 1978, Rolf was the driving force behind Cancom, the Canadian Satellite Communications system that delivers multi-channel radio and television signals to more than two thousand remote communities in Canada. It may have been the most involved and time-consuming endeavour of his illustrious career.
At the time, his proposal to the CRTC involved a whopping thirty eight-million dollars to set up and operate and the system would not make a profit for the first four years. While it almost sent him to the poor house, it worked and Rolf became a recognized visionary on the national scene.
But Rolf Hougen's life is measured in more than business success. His "Yukon-first" attitude helped insure the SS Klondike was moved from its shipyard location to Rotary Park in 1966. He also helped to make sure the White Pass railway's Yukon sector was not sold for scrap when the company ceased operations in the early 1980s.
He was president and founding member of the Whitehorse Board of Trade; chairman and founding member of the Yukon Sourdough Rendezvous; the Founding Chairman of the Yukon Foundation, and is a member of the Yukon Order of Pioneers. Nationally, he has served on the board of directors of many large corporations and is former Chairman of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce.
Little wonder Rolf Hougen is an Officer of the Order of Canada.
Les McLaughlin was a long time broadcaster and Yukon historian. Born in Valleyview, Alberta, he moved to Whitehorse at the age of three.
His broadcasting career started in the late 1950s when he was a volunteer with the pre-CBC CFWH. In 1964, he was hired on as an announcer and operator with CBC North in Whitehorse.
In 1965, along with fellow CBC announcer/operator Cal Waddington, McLaughlin produced a documentary on the Yukon for the closure of the Yukon Consolidated Gold Corp in Dawson City. This would be the first of many projects documenting the unique history of the territory.
Along with being a broadcaster, he also produced music for a number of Yukon and Northern artists including Daniel Tlen, Charlie Panigoniak, Susan Aglukark, Manfred Janssen, William Tagoona, Charlie Adams and David Gon.
Les also founded the True North Concert series broadcast across Canada. McLaughlin would also produce a series of broadcast recordings featuring Northern musical talent from across the north.
The series includes over one thousand musical selections. For this work, McLaughlin won the CBC's highest honour, the President's Award, for the "musical foresight and professional dedication in searching out promising northern musical talent."
McLaughlin would finish his career in 1995 after stints in Montreal and later Ottawa as a Northern Service producer with CBC, but his heart would remain in the Yukon. In retirement he would work on many Yukon historical projects, including writing and reading short storytelling pieces know as Yukon Nuggets for CKRW.
McLaughlin spent countless hours helping to preserve the history of the Yukon with his recordings of special people and events over many years for CBC Radio. More than two hundred hours of these audio selections are housed in the Yukon Archives and the Prince of Wales Heritage Centre in Yellowknife.
McLaughlin passed away on January 8, 2011 at the age of 69.


Benchmark crude for June delivery was down 47 cents to $96.24 a barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
NEW YORK (AP) -- The price of oil fell Tuesday as investors waited for the Federal Reserve's latest views on the U.S. economy.
On Wednesday, Fed chairman Ben Bernanke will appear before Congress and the central bank will release minutes of its most recent policy meeting. Traders will be looking for hints on what the Fed might be preparing to do in light of recent data that has pointed toward a sustained economic recovery.
There is speculation that the Fed might want to scale back or modify its loose monetary policy and its $85 billion-a-month program of bond purchases intended to keep interest rates low and prop up the recovery.
Data for the week ending May 17 is expected to show draws of 1.2 million barrels in crude oil stocks and of 200,000 barrels in gasoline stocks, according to a survey of analysts by Platts, the energy information arm of McGraw-Hill (NYSE:SPGI).
The American Petroleum Institute will release its report on oil stocks later Tuesday, while the report from the Energy Department's Energy Information Administration -- the market benchmark -- will be out on Wednesday.
Brent crude, a benchmark for many international oil varieties, was down 68 cents to $104.12 a barrel on the ICE Futures exchange in London.
Wholesale gasoline fell 4 cents to $2.86 a gallon.
Heating oil lost 2 cents to $2.94 a gallon.
Natural gas added 7 cents to $4.16 per 1,000 cubic feet.

A global partnership for children, including the WHO and UNICEF, report that annually, 4 million babies die within the first 30 days of birth. Why are 4 million babies dying? Concise 2 and 1/2 page article. The common causes are infection, birth asphyxia and premature (including low birth weight) births. Premature and low-weight babies are particularly susceptible to hypothermia and need to be kept warm.
In the well-off world, such babies are placed in expensive incubators (costing upwards of $10,000), while vital signs are monitored and stabilized. In much of the developing world such luxuries do not exist and babies continue to die off. Multinational medical device companies are quick to donate expensive equipment to far off locales. Consider that in places where infant mortality is very high, there is likely no electricity to power incubators and no trained personnel to operate them. Most of the equipment is completely useless and gathers dust.
This lack of understanding local constrainsts leads me to believe that most expensive equipment donations are made primarily for tax right-offs and a way to showcase social responsibility to shareholders. But thankfully, social entrepreneurs in small teams are continuing efforts to develop baby incubators for the developing world.
Here is a creative solution by EmbraceGlobal: A sleeping bag-like device with an add-on warming pouch. It does not require electricity, is portable and costs $25. At that price, they are near disposable and can go home with the baby. Most likely, parents don't have anything nicer to put the baby to sleep in.
A Neonatologist I spoke to voiced concern that for critical babies, it is important to be able to see the chest of the baby rise and fall as it breathes. I think this can be addressed by a zipper (or velcro) on the sides of the bag. These will also make it easier to get the baby in and out of the bag, and provide ventilation.
I think $25 is still a steep price for essentially a wrap-around quilt. If folks can build a laptop for $100, then such a sleeping bag should not cost more than $1! Yes, One dollar!
Any of you have ideas for modifying the designs to address local needs? Can this be made of locally sourced materials? How about involving micro-finance based women's groups to fabricate/assemble them locally? This could improve their livelihood as well. Perhaps this may trigger other solutions in the local populations.
Make it for $1! Any takers?
this is such a wonderful idea, arun. i would also think the velcro would help out with getting the baby in and out of the bag!
exactly! The velcro sides would help immensely!
A friend actually forward this to one of the Founders!

There are certainly a lot of components coming out, I expect it to get even more confusing! I think one thing to note is that all the "hubs" (PUP Hub, Boost move hub, SPIKE Prime hub, Duplo train base, even PUP remote control) are basically they same. They all speak the same Bluetooth protocol to the app as each other. The only difference is with the inbuilt motors and sensors and number of ports. Even the different inbuilt functionality (RGB lights, Duplo built in speaker, voltage and current, etc) are all just "sensors" in the firmware. The only difference is that you can't physically unplug them. :) Just an example - even the PUP remote is just another "hub"! The only difference is it has no ports, and the left and right buttons are just two inbuilt/non-removable sensors. Every hub also supports every other LPF2 device. You can plug a Boost motor into a WeDo 2.0 hub and it'll recognize it. You should be able to put a SPIKE Prime motor into a PUP hub and it'll recognize it. The only differences is whether the app you're using allows you to use that device. :) So, if you're only interested in the PUP hub ("Hub.No4", "Smart Hub 2 I/O", whatever you/they want to call it), it's quite exciting as hopefully you'll be able to use the entire range of LPF2 motors and sensors with it. Perhaps Lego will be slow with updating their official apps to support them, but our third-party apps and libraries should be faster! (I already have orders in for SPIKE Prime, and intend to do the same with the LEGO Technic Liebherr on launch). Regarding the firmware - the protocol for updating the firmware seems to be documented, but we don't have any firmware to try it with at the moment. :) As @veezer suggested perhaps someone can do a TCP dump of the app traffic and figure out where it's downloading the firmware from. But it's not on my roadmap.
Fun gardens setup, and I like how you utilized wall panels with columns of 1x1 round bricks between them An overview shot would certainly be appreciated, as it looks to be a very cool layout with various levels and walkways. The Mitgardian rangers are certainly in high demand these days!
Thank you, it is nice to hear it. I stopped posting my Creator alternatives here because it looked like nobody cares about them... Now I've found out that most of people here don't care about Creator 3 in 1 at all.
Really interesting stuff, thanks for sharing!

How House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi Shut Down a "Clueless" Congressman Trying to Cut Her Off on the House Floor
"I thought, Poor Baby. You don't even know what you're getting into."
Emily Mahaney
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D–CA) had an epic clapback for a congressman who tried to interrupt her. Pelosi was speaking against the Financial Choice Act on the House floor last week, when freshman Congressman John Faso (R–N.Y.) attempted to cut her short. "How much time does the gentlewoman have?" he asked. Her reply: "As much time as I need. I have as much time as I need." (And she did, per House rules.) Note to men, everywhere: Don't try to silence Pelosi. It won't end well. Watch it all go down, here:
https://twitter.com/nowthisnews/status/872982332155715584
Glamour caught up with Pelosi last weekend in Galveston, Texas—where she was celebrating the commissioning of the USS Gabrielle Giffords, the new Navy combat ship named after her friend and former House colleague Gabby Giffords—and she gave us play-by-play of her fire House floor moment. Pelosi also talked to Glamour about the 13 men writing the Senate's health care bill, Trump's attempt to roll back Obamacare's birth control coverage mandate, and how she wants to take a "whole band of women" to see Wonder Woman.
GLAMOUR: A video of you speaking out against the Financial Choice Act on the House floor last week went viral. [Rep. John Faso, R–N.Y., a freshman Congressman, was] trying to interrupt you, and was asking you how much time you had, and you said, "As much as I need!"
HOUSE MINORITY LEADER NANCY PELOSI: As much as I need!
GLAMOUR: As women, we've all had moments where we've been cut short by men, and so many of us had a visceral reaction to watching you respond.
NP: Well, I was in a position of power. You have to understand, he didn't know what he was doing. As Leader, I can take any time I want on the [House] floor. He didn't know the rules about the Leader. I thought, Poor Baby. You don't even know what you're getting into. [Laughs.] But the thing is, you have to understand, it's about truth. I was speaking truth, he didn't want to hear it about his subject, so he thought he was going to cut me off. The designated Speaker, he knew that I had all the time that I wanted, and he kept saying, "The gentlelady controls the time." And Poor Baby couldn't get the clue. He was clueless.
GLAMOUR: What advice would you give to women who, in moments like that, tend to want to retreat?
NP: Know your power. I say this all over the country because I want many young women to think about running for public office. Once you put yourself in the arena, you become a target. This is not for the faint of heart. So know your power. There is nobody who can make your contribution. Whatever it is that has made you who you are—your upbringing, your education, your work experience, your decisions about family—has informed you with judgment that is irreplaceable. You are unique. And that is the authenticity that our system needs. And know your purpose. Nobody can know about all subjects, but know your subject. Know your stuff. So that people respect your judgment. Tell your story. And don't let anybody demystify who you are. What, you don't wear a suit and tie, so you must not know how things work? The bozo with a suit and tie didn't even know the rules of the House. [Laughs.]
GLAMOUR: Let's go back for a second: We're here celebrating the commissioning of the USS Gabrielle Giffords. What message does her name on that ship send to the men and women who are working on it, as well to men and women around the nation?
NP: It's very hard to put into intellectual words the emotional response we all have to her name being on this battleship. She's a fighter. She has courage. She has strength. And that is what the Navy is about. She has hope and she's always ready. And that is what the Navy is all about. So to see her name there just brings tears to your eyes of joy and of the poignancy of it all. It couldn't be a better match than Gabby's name and this ship.
GLAMOUR: I want to talk about health care next, because that's an issue that's so deeply important to readers. There are 13 male senators in the working group that is writing this new health care bill behind closed doors. Why do you think they didn't include any women?
NP: Because the men are oblivious. It's up to the women Republican senators to say to their leadership: "Trust us. Respect us. We know something." The issue has always been about respect—respect for a woman's right to determine the size and timing of a family, respect for a woman's right to help write the laws that will affect her reproductive health and health in general for families. To subtract women from the equation is not only to subtract 50 percent of our country, but to subtract the overwhelming number of caregivers in our country. So it's a mistake. Not just politically, and not just by the optics of it, but in terms of the product that they could produce.... And you know what? Clueless is a good name for all of them! Clueless are the people who want to cut women off when they're speaking. Clueless are those men who are going into the room to decide about health care in our country.
GLAMOUR: [Many of] our readers were concerned about the health care bill passed by the House and sent to the Senate. We don't yet know the details of the Senate's version of the bill. What can readers who are feeling uncertain about this bill do right now?
NP: One of the reasons we were able to defeat the [House] Republican health care bill the first time out was because of the activism. Our inside maneuvering was important, but it would not have achieved the goal without the outside mobilization. You saw the Women's March: It was about climate, juvenile justice, immigration—many things—but a large part of it was about protecting our health care and a woman's right to choose. And those women, and those people supporting women, showed up at town meetings and made calls. They can keep making the difference if they tell their senators what they support. Know your power. Make your voice heard. You will make the difference.
GLAMOUR: I want to talk about the Trump administration's move to potentially roll back the [Affordable Care Act's] birth control coverage mandate. [The ACA requires employers to offer health insurance that covers cost-free birth control.] A draft rule that leaked about a week ago suggests that Trump is trying to allow any employer to seek a religious exemption from the requirement.
NP: What the Trump administration was doing was following up on a Supreme Court decision [in Burwell vs. Hobby Lobby, which ruled that corporations controlled by religious families cannot be required to pay for contraception coverage]. And I thought that was a wrong decision. Because it's a woman's decision; it's not her employer's decision. But what the President did was expand that, make that a universal application. Some people interpret that as you might not be hired if you're practicing birth control, or you might be fired if you're practicing birth control, but whatever it is, you're paying for it yourself. And family planning is really a health need: Now 55 million women have access to family planning, free of charge, covered—and the White House wants to take that away.
GLAMOUR: Do you think the Trump administration will actually be able to act on that intention?
NP: Well, I hope not. We did not like the Supreme Court decision, but he goes beyond the Supreme Court decision. It's very important for the Democrats to win the Congress so we can stand guard on a woman's right to choose. It's beyond the choice issue; it's about disrespecting women generally. So I disrespect your right to choose. And by the way, if I'm your boss, I can make determinations on your right to choose. But we have to…again, women have to know their power, and the many men who share their views have to speak out and say: "Halt. Halt." If you don't want abortions, the most important thing you can do is have contraception.
GLAMOUR: And we're at the lowest abortion rate in decades.
NP: I say this as a very devout Catholic about my own disappointment in some elements in the church, and they get annoyed when I say this, that advocate for all the good things that we have in the Gospel of Michael—feed the hungry, house the homeless, clothe the naked—and all of that gets pushed aside because of one subject: I want to make sure I have an influence over the timing and size of your family. What can I tell you, I had five kids in six years. You have five kids in six years and then you come see me. [Laughs.]
GLAMOUR: I want to close out with a fun question: Have you seen Wonder Woman yet?
NP: Not yet! But I can't wait to go. We've been in session. I wanted to take a whole band of women to see it. And I know Wonder Woman. Lynda Carter is a very good friend and supporter of mine—and she is just so very happy about the new Wonder Woman movie and the director's understanding of what Wonder Woman is.
GLAMOUR: The director—Patty Jenkins—is remarkable.
NP: Fabulous. And Lynda Carter thinks that Patty handled it so beautifully.
GLAMOUR: It made over 200 million at the global box office over opening weekend.
NP: Isn't that great? You go, girl!
GLAMOUR: What message does that send the people who are making the financial decisions about movies in Hollywood?
NP: Well, I love it. Patty Jenkins is an example of a very successful woman director. Well, why don't we support more of them, and have a product that is successful? She's proven that—as well as one that has such appeal and makes people feel good. And when so many people support such a thing, it's a unifying thing. I believe that the arts are what's going to bring America back together, whether it's to dance to music, to laugh at a joke, to cry at a story. Just to enjoy together, forgetting politics.


I've received a few emails about a document (PDF) describing the track records of Collective rights organizations (CROs), including from InfoJustice and one of the founders of Unglue.it (Another awesome alternative to CROs).
My own concerns about how CROs often push for exceptions to copyright in the form of compulsory licensing was included (See page 18, 19), with a reference to "Independent authors just wanting a little respect... from fellow creators and collective societies".
Should first to file vs invent matter in a well managed patent system?
This is a discussion that has bothered me for a long time. There are debates and studies which try to suggest that one or another of "first to file" (FTF) or "first to invent" (FTI) is better for one or another type of inventor (small inventors, etc).
A recent article in IP Osgoode demonstrates the problem. In referencing a study the article suggests, "The study finds that the shift to FTF resulted in a reduction in the number of patents granted to individual Canadian inventors and small businesses". This is a study based on the Canadian experience having made the switch to FTF in 1989, with the USA switch coming into force in 2013.
The assumption of the article, and most of the debaters, is that if some patents are good, more are better. The fact that the number of patents granted went down after a change should not be presumed to be a bad thing, when in fact patents not being granted may just as easily be a good thing for innovation.
I received the following note about a contest from Patexia to find prior art on a specific patent. Given the critical problem of patent quality, where innovations that are low in utility, novelty and/or unobviousness are granted a patent statutory monopoly by governments, tools to invalidate poor quality patents are an important part of the solution.
This morning on the way into work I listened again to the interview CBC Spark's Nora Young did with Douglas Rushkoff as part of their Summer audio blog. I recommend everyone listen to this interview. Greatly simplifying, he speaks about how we live in a programmed world, and that people who don't understand at least a little bit about programming will not be able to be full participants.
Looking for feedback on comment system.
Currently we are using the built-in Drupal commenting system on this site, which requires that people get a drupal account to comment. This seemed like the right thing to do when the site was set up, and we wanted everyone to have accounts so that they could also more easily send letters to their MPs.
I now wonder if the extra step to sign up, and the use of a simplistic editor forcing people to use HTML encoding, is no longer the right choice. From the comments I see on Twitter, Google plus and elsewhere talking about articles from this site, it isn't a lack of interest that has meant there isn't comments here. It is likely the commenting system.
Jeremy Reimer of Ars Tech published an article From Altair to iPad: 35 years of personal computer market share. It is a great read both for those who have been involved in the industry for many years, or new people who may not know any of the history.
The interesting thing about history is that different people who were there experienced it differently. The interesting thing about statistics is that the details of what the methodology is counting is often more important than the numbers that come out. Much of the Ars article this month and from 2005 were based on IDC numbers, which I have been critical of for years for being wildly inaccurate in reporting alternatives to Microsoft Windows running on Intel/AMD machines.


You go to check the mailbox, and there's an HOA notice. In no uncertain terms, they tell you that it's time: your home's paint has faded, and it's time to get it repainted.
For homeowners in HOA-regulated neighborhoods, this letter is what often provides the motivation to start their home exterior painting process.
Yet, there's no need to panic: here in Phoenix, Crash of Rhinos offers exterior home painting for stucco homes, and we're used to working with HOAs to get results that are great for both the homeowner and the association.
When you get an HOA notice in the mail, call Crash of Rhinos Painting.
Typically, the letter will give you some kind of reasonable deadline to get your house painted. It's not the same as a letter about pulling your weeds: associations understand that making home painting arrangements takes a little time.
Start by giving Crash of Rhinos a call, or by contacting us online. Tell us about the letter, and what it says.
Some HOAs help you save a few steps by including the acceptable exterior colors right there in the letter. But, if not, there's a process we can go through to help you figure out what approved colors you can paint your house. It's called our Professional Paint Advisor service, and, through it, we'll work with your HOA on your behalf. More on that in a minute.
Next, we'll come to your house when it's convenient for you and give you a free quote. We'll need to see the stucco, take measurements, and more. This quote is upfront and honest.
The quote gets bundled into a proposal packet that includes all the details about the project. If you've decided to use the Professional Paint Advisor, this will include the colors approved by your HOA and what you've selected. If not, we'll provide you with instructions for getting an approved color.
We'll also take video of your current home exterior during our quote. Basically, this gets turned into "game tape" for our painting team, who watch it before starting the work to see specific areas that need special attention.
This is the easiest part of you. Our team handles the entire painting process from start-to-finish. After we're done, we'll talk to you and provide you with information about our really great warranty.
Now, you'll have the peace of mind knowing that your paint is guaranteed for the next seven years. Your HOA, seeing your freshly painted home, will be satisfied that you're in compliance. On top of all that, your home's value should increase because of the improved curb appeal.
Have you received an HOA notice? Call Crash of Rhinos for your free estimate!
An HOA notice about your exterior painting doesn't have to be a stressful event. Just give Crash of Rhinos Painting a call. Our team specializes in painting stucco homes here in the Valley, and we'd love to help you.

Viral UMaine Lobster Contest offers viewers a chance to win their own lobster
Sarah Jordan
ORONO— The University of Maine is calling attention to the blue economy conversation and its goal of providing global marine leadership with a YouTube video promoting the safe handling and consumption of lobster. The featured University of Maine Cooperative Extension video has helped more than 1.8 million viewers safely boil, steam, grill and enjoy Maine's most famous seafood.
Posted nearly a decade ago, the "Lobster Cooking and Eating" video is among the top 10 most-watched videos on the UMaine YouTube channel this month. Its 12,854 views in the last 30 days is outpacing other UMaine Extension fan favorites, such as "Getting Strawberry Plants Ready for Winter," "How Do I Prune Raspberries" and "Tick Removal."
UMaine has released a video that features extension professor and food safety specialist Jason Bolton, one of the original stars of the "Lobster Cooking and Eating" video. This vintage, VHS-style video offers viewers a chance to win free Maine lobster for joining the blue economy conversation.
"Online clout has never been a goal of mine, but as an educator, I am happy to help people safely prepare and enjoy lobster," said Bolton. "The blue economy is an important focus of conversation at UMaine and taking this video viral, in a good way, is a great way to invite people to take part."
UMaine President Joan Ferrini-Mundy welcomed more than 100 blue economy researchers, policymakers and stakeholders to a virtual discussion last week, hosted by the UMaine MARINE Initiative, which strives to make Maine a global leader as a marine state. The event highlighted the impact of UMaine's 110 marine-oriented researchers, contributions to more than $75 million in global research projects, and 32% enrollment growth in the UMaine School of Marine Sciences.
If you would like to participate, the free lobster contest includes a Facebook and Instagram promotion providing a chance to win free Maine lobster shipped anywhere in the United States. Students at the University of Maine and its coastal campus, the University of Maine at Machias, can win a second prize, enjoying a lobster dinner with Bolton in Orono. Contest rules can be found here.

A fun entry in the Private Snafu series made for use by the US Army during WW2. Directed by Chuck Jones with rhyming dialogue courtesy of Dr. Seuss, this one was actually never released. The story is a simple one about Snafu coming home on leave and running his mouth to everybody that will listen, spilling his guts about things he shouldn't, which ultimately ends in disaster for the military. It's not known for sure why this short was shelved, though its depiction of a secret weapon being used against the Japanese that is similar to the atomic bomb is often suspected to be the main reason. The black & white animation is very nice. The sexy women are a highlight. Mel Blanc's voice work is flawless, as usual. It's a brief but amusing short with a lot of interesting elements.

Salam alaikum. I thank you for your concern about my community, and felt it would be rude not to reply (I hear there is another reply floating around, but that one reveals the authors' angst more than any coherent comment). Now to be clear, I do not claim to speak for India's 150 million Muslims but of them. No doubt, my own socio-cultural and economic biases will seep in frequently, but I do hope you are not still under the illusion of perfect objectivity.
To explain the lay of the land, you must first understand that Islam is not a centralised religion – we have no Pope, even if we do have a fixed text like the other Abrahamic faiths. Islamic law, therefore, varies widely from region to region, and there are fours schools of legal thought. Decrees from our clergy are only as binding as the acceptance of the particular qadi pronouncing judgement. In personal matters, that faith is high, but in matters of geopolitics, that trust runs much shallower. Notice, for example, the disagreement between Gulf clerics and the Muslim Brotherhood.
Now, let us start with the question on most of your minds: terrorism. I am sure most of you will agree that there has been a spurt in Islamic militancy, particularly in the last 15 years. Now, I am not sure if you noticed, but that violence carried out in the name of religion has less to do with its stated reason and more to do with power. Most terrorists have been dismal failures in expressing their cause, but US support of totalitarian regimes in Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, etc, overthrow of democracy in Iran, Israeli treatment of Palestinians in the occupied territories, and other such political reasons have fuelled the upsurge in terrorism; tragically, its leaders use the ambiguous category of religion as a means of luring followers. My explanation is not a defence of terrorist methods; in fact, the version of Islamic society these monsters envision – beheading, capital punishment, stoning, extreme gender discrimination – is abhorrent to many Muslims and goes against the most basic Islamic tenet of social justice (remember zakaat?). All but the radicals would agree that terrorists, whatever religion they claim to fight for, are enemies of society that should be resisted and defeated. just be wary of primitive social profiling based on ungrounded suppositions.
Muslims have fought Muslims from the earliest days of Islam just as much as they have fought non-Muslims. To this day, you see inter-sect as well as inter-faith conflict involving Islam, clearly indicating that religion is not necessarily the motivating factor in everything we do. To some, religion is important and to others, less so; yet to assume it is our only identity, even our prime identity, is about as sensible as assuming that someone buying a Tata Nano is expressing his or her solidarity with Narendra Modi because the factory is in Gujarat.
To turn this around a bit, let us ask you – are you Hindu, Tamil, or Indian? Can you be all? Can you be motivated by just one of those in certain tasks, two of those in others, and all three in yet others? I suspect you can, so why do I have to choose between being Muslim, Tamilian, and Indian?
Then comes the issue of the crude stereotypes – if you see all Muslims as Osama bin Laden or Hafiz Saeed, then by the same logic, are all Catholics like Tomás de Torquemada, Protestants like Anders Breivik, Jews like the first-century Kanaim or Yigal Amir, and Sikhs like Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale? Are all Hindus traitors like BK Sinha or Madhuri Gupta and assassins like Madan Lal Dhingra or Nathuram Godse? Or perhaps you think APJ Kalam, Altamas Kabir, Idris Hasan Latif, Shahabuddin Yaqoob Quraishi, and Asif Ibrahim are also terrorists? You can harbour such essentialist thoughts, but do not be surprised if we treat you as quacks.
Please don't misunderstand me – there are indeed many problems with the Muslim community, and you are absolutely right that no one is taking on the fanatics out of fear. Yet to see this as a purely Muslim problem again misses the texture of the issue. For example, honour killings are not uncommon in Islam; yet they are not unheard of among Hindus either, particularly in the case of inter-caste or inter-faith relations. While the anti-religious lobby brigade like to find fault with religion itself, the fact is that it is a cultural problem, and there have been cases of honour killings even among atheistic families due to their cultural influence. Similarly, with female genital mutilation, it is an abhorrent custom that has tried to creep into religion but remains largely restricted to Africa more than to all Muslim lands and communities.
Some of you wonder why we hold ourselves apart from the rest of India like partially immiscible liquids; Muslim ghettoes exist in every nook and cranny of India. Yes, it is true that we have our own communities. It is also true that many of us have mingled quite freely with our Hindu and other neighbours during festivals and other occasions for celebrations such as marriages and births. Again, the reasons for this need not be religious – people segregate themselves based on caste, class, dietary habits, ethnicity, and various other criteria. You might not know this, but some Muslims refuse to live in certain Muslim areas for class reasons!
Personally, I have enjoyed the fruits of a liberal education in England, France, and the United States. I love my Faiz and Ghalib as much as I adore Balzac and Petrarch. However, very few people in the world – of any religion – have that sort of fortune. Imagine an Indian family of four earning ₹69,000 per annum – they would probably have to rely on state welfare and poor government schools or madaris to make ends meet. In this intellectually stultifying environment, there is the added burden of quotidian life in India – electricity and water shortages, corruption, poor infrastructure, and all those other problems successive governments have promised to solve since 1947. In the midst of these pressures, what do you think would be the impact of being asked repeatedly to prove one's patriotism? Of being asked to officially accept that one's ancestors were Hindu? Of being put in the spotlight for refusing to sing the Vande Mataram despite an explicit religious injunction on iconography? Of having to fight to eat whatever one wants? Of all those snide, covert and not-so-covert comments about one's ancestors having voted for the formation of Pakistan in 1947 and the suggestion that perhaps one ought to go there? Does a free citizen of a democratic country have to put up with such haranguing?
Before you all collectively jump down my throat, it ought to also be conceded that the recent walkout by the Bahujan Samaj Party MP Shafiqur Rahman Barq during the playing of the Vande Mataram was deplorable – as a country of multiple communities, the respectful thing to do would have been to stay but not sing. I am glad to see that Barq's action has been criticised by voices from most segments of the political spectrum, the BJP, Congress, as well as the Communists. Such pandering to the radical votebank must have strong negative consequences.
Another issue that pops us when the "M" word is mentioned is Babri Masjid. Hindus are right that the mosque was not of particular importance to Muslims, and that it was rarely used. However, any building that is over 450 years old is a part of Indian history and it ought to be of value for at least that reason. The merits of the case can be decided by the courts, but what is hurtful is the venomous Rath Yatra led by LK Advani and the crowd mobilisation for the destruction of the structure. As if that were not enough, a year later, the Bombay Riots orchestrated by Bal Thackeray in celebration only added salt to the wound. While Advani has since said that his role was unintentional in the demolition and expressed regret for 6/12 his loss of control over the crowd, the Shiv Sena was allowed to disband the Srikrishna Commission. Reconvened with a skewed mandate that included the Bombay blasts of 1993, the report it produced was nevertheless rejected and no action has been taken to punish the guilty. Muslims might eventually come to terms with Advani's and the Babri Masjid incident, but the unabashed revelry and criminal inaction of the BJP's ally in Maharashtra casts doubt on the sincerity of their outreach to the Muslim community.
The destruction of Indic religious structures and the erection of mosques upon those very sites is, no doubt, a grievous offence Muslim rulers of yore gave local populations, and a human tragedy. Yet is there no statute of limitations on these sorts of civilisational crimes? Should we exterminate the Israelis for killing and chasing out the Philistines from Judea some 3,500 years ago, or perhaps the Europeans and Americans for their intrusion into the New World? Even among Muslims who are not particularly attached to the Babri Masjid issue, the question arises up to what point one can go back to settle old scores. Furthermore, what does it mean to be an Indian? In a multi-cultural society like India, short of genocide, these questions will continue to haunt unless a common sensical approach is taken.
The greatest irony in all this Hindu-Muslim acrimony is importance you give to the All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB). The body is a private non-governmental organisation whose views are taken as largely representing all Indian Muslims. They threatened political action against the High Court ruling on Babri Masjid, objected to Salman Rushdie at the Jaipur Literature Festival, disagreed with the Right of Children for Free and Compulsory Education Act, opposed gay marriage, supported child marriage, and resisted change in divorce law for Muslim women.
Interestingly, while the government accepts this non-elected organisation's claim to represent all Indian Muslims, it is Muslims who have problems with the board – there have already been two splinters, the All India Shia Personal Law Board (AISPLB) and the All India Muslim Women's Personal Law Board (AIMWPLB). For all the talk of shariah, how many Indian Muslim men actually have more than one wife? Most Muslims, in India or elsewhere, do not apply each and every facet of of Islamic law to their lives. By focussing on the AIMPLB, in essence, the Indian government has made, as Prayaag Akbar pointed out, a more regressive faction of the Muslim community the voice of all Muslims. For all the hungama you raise about Muslims, how many politicians have challenged the AIMPLB's position as the sole voice of Indian Muslims? Would you allow, say, the Art of Living Foundation to represent all Hindus in religious matters? More importantly, why has my personal relationship with God become a matter of national policy?
No conversation on Muslims in India, particularly around elections, ends without mentioning the other "M" word – Modi. Many of you would like to know why we do not support Narendra Modi as a prime ministerial candidate. I am not sure if you noticed, but many did vote for him in the Gujarat Assembly elections last year, and there are some Muslims in his party. So make up your minds – did he win from Muslim-majority districts or do Muslims not vote for him? It cannot be both. As Zafar Sareshwala points out in an interesting article, most of Modi's critics are actually Hindu.
Non-support has many reasons – disagreement with economics, distaste for others in the party, and yes, the unease many feel over the whole Godhra issue. You can score political points with the Congress about 1984 and whatever else, but as far as many Muslims are concerned, even those who acknowledge his governance record, there is a black mark against his name that will take time to fade away. Let us not pretend to have no emotions!
All this started with Chetan Bhagat's letter. There were issues with his letter, as many have pointed out, but the letter was really not as bad as people have made it out to be. Bhagat appealed to our better instincts, did not play up fault lines, and talked of Muslims as part of the Indian whole. Despite whatever analytical weaknesses exist in his letter, his intentions were, in all probability, noble. What we need is more reassuring Chetan Bhagats and fewer fear-mongering and hate-spouting Praveen Togadias or Subramaniam Swamys. If you genuinely want to work towards a congruence of visions between India's two largest religious communities, learn about us with an open mind: historical flexibility and half-baked notions about civilisational friction are best left to demagogues. If you are more than your rhetoric about a strong and united country, give us our due – treat us as countrymen.

Argentina's energy secretary resigned on Friday, the government said in a statement, after news leaked that the government plans to increase electricity prices by an average 35 per cent in 2019.
Higher power bills are sure to be unpopular as they would hit families already struggling with 47 per cent inflation and a shrinking economy that has caused job losses and an increase in poverty.
The statement said the incoming energy secretary would be Gustavo Lopetegui, currently a presidential adviser with close ties to Macri's powerful cabinet chief Marcos Pena, reports Reuters.
Next year will be politically sensitive for Argentina, with President Mauricio Macri set to run for re-election in October while policymakers struggle to jumpstart Latin America's third biggest economy and tame leaping consumer prices, which eroded the purchasing power of average Argentine households during 2018.

De Brink is een centrale groene ruimte in de oude binnenstad van Assen.

Geschiedenis
De Brink is de voormalige voorhof van het klooster Maria in Campis, dat in de 13e eeuw hiernaartoe verhuisde. Assen ontstond als esdorp rond de brink. De Brink bestaat uit twee grasvelden en meerdere bomen. Lucas Pieters Roodbaard richtte de Brink in 1844 in als wandelpark. De Brink is nu onderdeel van beschermd stadsgezicht.

Bebouwing
Na de opheffing van het klooster in 1602, werden de kloostergebouwen in gebruik genomen door het provinciaal en later ook het gemeentelijk bestuur. De Kloosterkerk is onder meer Hervormde kerk, gemeentehuis en politiebureau geweest. Het Ontvangershuis was aanvankelijk waarschijnlijk een priesterwoning, later het huis van de ontvangers-generaal van de provincie. Een aantal van deze gebouwen, veelal erkend als rijksmonument, wordt nu gebruikt door het Drents Museum. Het hoofddeel van het museum is gevestigd in het Gouvernementsgebouw (voormalig provinciehuis) dat eind 19e eeuw een deel van de kloostergebouwen verving. In 1995 verhuisde het gemeentebestuur van Assen van Huize Tetrode naar de nabijgelegen Noordersingel, publicaties van de gemeente verschenen ook nadien nog steeds onder de naam Berichten van de Brink.

Gedenkmonumenten en kunst
Op de Brink staan ter herinnering aan de Tweede Wereldoorlog de Texelbank (1950) en het Provinciaal gedenkteken (Willem Valk, 1951). Als kunstwerken zijn De cultuurdrager (Charles Hammes, 1962) en de Boombank (Jurgen Bey, 2013) hier geplaatst.

LONG DISTANCE ART
MULTIMEDIA EXHIBITION, Vladimir Bojić
May 29th – June 2nd, 2007
Yugo automobile has been bought in 1973 from the Italian car company FIAT. Yugo is the rejected FIAT's model from the very same year. Readjusting to the conditions and tools of the car company ZASTAVA from Kragujevac, Yugo starts its life in the same form that has today. The FIAT's product called Yugo shows exactly the attitude of the manufactory towards the market, as well as the demands of the same market. Having in mind the place and the time of this car's birth, we could say that its name, or its new name, was a jackpot.
Yugo is not only FIAT's simulation, but one could say it's a simulation of the car comparing to the actual and modern car. The modern car today is far beyond its "prehistoric" relative, Yugo. Maybe the absurd is so great, that Yugo is all that one car originally is, and its modern relative, with all those useless functions, is a simulation.
This project is based on the idea of the confrontation with the social reality with the simulation of the car.
Yugo made out of the packing paper in its real dimensions, put on the street (without paid parking place, in the zone where it's not allowed to stop and park the car), recorded with the video camera.
