Maybe 9th time is the charm? Senate takes up Keystone XL Pipeline
Sen. Mary Landrieu, D-La., chair of the Senate Energy Committee, with Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W. Va., a member of the committee, speak to reporters about the new urgency to get congressional approval for the Canada-to-Texas Keystone XL pipeline, at the Capitol in Washington, Wednesday, Nov. 12, 2014.

The Senate takes up the Keystone XL oil pipeline in a vote tomorrow after the Republican-controlled House approved the project on Friday for the ninth time. Last week's vote was 252-161, with not a single GOP lawmaker voting against it and with the support of 31 Democrats. Supporters in the Democratic-run Senate predict this time they'll get the 60 votes needed to pass it. Should the Senate send the bill to Obama for his signature, he would face a decision that pits his environmental concerns about the pipeline against any obligation he might feel to help his fellow Democrat Mary Landrieu, who's in a in a Dec. 6 runoff against the bill's sponsor, republican Rep. Bill Cassidy, R-La. to keep her Senate seat.
The project would pipe oil extracted from tar sand through six states - 1,700 miles - to refineries in Texas. Environmental groups argue that the pipeline, even with several thousand data points and advanced mechanisms for halting the flow of oil, could have serious negative impacts on the sensitive areas surrounding the route. Pipeline proponents argue that extraction will occur with or without the pipeline due to high demand for oil and emphasize the importance of job creation. Energy companies are already transporting crude oil by rail. And a State Department report earlier this year found that the potential impact to carbon emissions is not significant compared to the emissions already coming from extraction and rail transport.
What would the Keystone XL pipeline do to nearby communities? Is this the most economically viable and efficient plan? Which energy sources should the U.S. be investing in?

Описание: Along came Amedeo: A unique type of beauty In endless odes to the female form, Amedeo Modigliani (1884-1920) traced elongated bodies, almond eyes, and his own name into art history. His languid female subjects are as instantly recognizable as they arestartling, sensual, and swan-necked.Modigliani's unique figuration corresponded to his own personal idea of beauty, but drew upon a rich variety of visual influences, including contemporaryCubism, African carvings, Cambodian sculptures, and 13th century painting from his native Italy. Although most renowned for his nude females, he applied similar stylistic techniques to portraits of male artistic contemporaries such asPablo Picasso, Jean Cocteau, andChaim Soutine.With key works from his highly individualistic repertoire, this book introduces Modigliani's brief but revered career at the heart of Paris' early modernist hotbed.

Название: Impressionist Art (1860-1920) (Bibliotheca Universalis)
Цена: от 1403 р.
Описание: Brushwork revolution: The neglected champions of ImpressionismIt was a dappled and daubed harbor scene that gave Impressionism its name. When Impression, Sunrise by Claude Monet was exhibited in April 1874, critics seized upon the work s title and its loose stylistic rendering of light and motion upon water to deride this new, impressionistic, tendency in art.As with many seminal art movements, the critics got their comeuppance. Today, Impressionism is close contender for the world s favorite period of painting. With blockbuster exhibitions, record-breaking auction prices, and packed museums, the works once dismissed as unfinished or imprecise are now beloved for their atmospheric evocation of time and place, as well as the stylistic flair of rapid brushstrokes upon canvas.Despite its popularity and a whole host of publications, many areas and artists of Impressionism remain inadequately researched. This TASCHEN book fills the gap, raising the profile of unjustly neglected pioneers such as Berthe Morisot, Lucien Pissarro, and Gustave Caillebotte, while exploring the characteristics of Impressionism, from painting en plein air to vivid color contrasts, not only in the movement s native France but also across the rest of Europe and North America.About the series: Bibliotheca Universalis Compact cultural companions celebrating the eclectic TASCHEN universe at an unbeatable, democratic price!Since we started our work as cultural archaeologists in 1980, the name TASCHEN has become synonymous with accessible, open-minded publishing.

Название: Escher (Basic Art)
Описание: Twisted mind: The graphic pattern genius of M. C. EscherFrom impossible staircases to tesselated birds, Dutch artist M. C. Escher (1898 1972) crafted a unique graphic language of patterns, puzzles, and mathematics. Dense, complex, and structured by intricate principles, his work is at the same time decorative and playful, toying constantly with optic illusions and the limitations of sensory perception. For mathematicians and scientists, Escher is a mastermind. For hippies, he was the pioneer of psychedelic art.Born in Leeuwarden, in the Netherlands in 1898, Escher s early works focused on nature and landscapes, with regular exhibitions in Holland, and some international recognition. It was on a trip to the Alhambra Palace in Spain in the 1920s, however, that Escher found his niche. Sketching the patterns of the palace s Moorish architecture, Escher became captivated by the codependency of forms within and next to each other.Working mainly with lithographs and woodcuts, Escher went on to explore the relationships among shapes, figures, and space with a near-obsessive delight. He reveled in quirky vantage points, multiple perspectives, the transition from paper flatness to illusory volume, and intricate mathematical puzzles such as the Mobius strip, a seemingly infinite loop which twists and recoils on itself in a contortion of apparent physical impossibility.This introductory book from TASCHEN Basic Art 2.0 taps into Escher s brilliant mind with key works from his restless investigation of image and perception. Along the way, you ll find fish morphing into birds, lizards crawling off the page, masterful reflections, infinite mazes, and some of the most mind-bending images of 20th-century art.About the series: Each book in TASCHEN s Basic Art series features: a detailed chronological summary of the life and oeuvre of the artist, covering his or her cultural and historical importance a concise biography approximately 100 illustrations with explanatory captions"
Название: Klimt (Basic Art)
Описание: The unfading popularity of Gustav Klimt (1862-1918) attests not only to the particular appeal of his luxuriant painting but also to the universal themes with which he worked: love, feminine beauty, aging, and death. The son of a goldsmith, Klimt created surfaces of ornate and jewel-like luminosity which show influence of both Egyptian and Japanese art. Through paintings, murals, and friezes, his work is defined by radiant color, fluid lines, floral elements, and mosaic-like patterning. With a number of subjects dealing with sensuality and desire as well as anxiety and despair, all this iridescence is also suffused with feeling. Klimt's numerous images of women, characterized by curvaceous forms, tender flesh, red lips and flushed cheeks, were particularly charged with passion, at a time when such frank eroticism was still taboo in Viennese upper middle class society. This book presents a selection of Klimt's work, introducing his pictorial world of decoration and desire, as well as his influence on artists to come.

Название: Caravaggio: Complete Works (Art)
Описание: Realist revolutionary: The painter who brought the heavenly down to earth Caravaggio, or more accurately Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio (1571-1610), was always a name to be reckoned with.Notorious bad boy of Italian painting, the artist was at once celebrated and controversial: Violent in temper, precise in technique, a creative master, and a man on the run. This work offers a comprehensive reassessment of Caravaggio's entire oeuvre with a catalogue raisonnE of his works. Each painting is reproduced in large format, with recent, high production photography allowing for dramatic close-ups with Caravaggio's ingenious details of looks and gestures. Five introductory chapters analyze Caravaggio's artistic career from his early struggle to make a living, through his first public commissions in Rome, and his growing celebrity status. They look at his increasing daring with lighting and with a boundary-breaking realism which allowed even biblical events to unfold with an unprecedented immediacy before the viewer. An accompanying artist chronology follows Caravaggio's equally tumultous personal life, tracing his history of debts, gambling, drunken brawls, and murder

In this paper we compare the elasmobranch composition, depth-related trends of species and community descriptors (abundance, biomass, mean fish weight, species richness and diversity) of the Balearic Islands Archipelago and Algeria (north- and southwestern Mediterranean, respectively). The samples used in this study were collected in bottom trawl surveys between 36 and 779 m depth. Generalized linear models, linear regression, cluster and similarity percentage analyses, and generalized additive models were used to compare the two areas. Twenty-nine elasmobranch species were caught, 12 of them common to both areas, 7 appearing only in the Balearic Islands, and 10 only in Algeria. The bathymetric distributions of species were, in most cases, best fitted to uni-modal response curves. The models for species common to both areas showed similar bathymetric trends, except for Etmopterus spinax, which in Algeria showed a maximum abundance located 154 m shallower than in the Balearic Islands. Four bathymetric assemblages were identified in both areas with similar depth ranges but with different species composition. The mean values of the community descriptors were higher on the shelf in the Balearic Islands, whereas higher values were detected on the slope in Algeria. Different between-area bathymetric trends for all the descriptors were detected, with the exception of mean fish weight. The distinct environmental scenarios and fishing histories of the areas studied are discussed as underlying traits influencing the elasmobranch populations.

[viii] Tom Shippey and Humphrey Carpenter represent two somewhat different interpretations of the ending of the story. Carpenter says Niggle's tree is a "true part of creation" – that is, it was there all along, part of the glorious true country of God. As an artist, Niggle was giving the world a very partial glimpse of this coming world, this underlying truth. Shippey is even more ambitious. He writes, "Niggle's reward is to find his picture come true at the end of his journey, his 'sub-creation' accepted by the Creator"(pp.276-7). In other words, Niggle's artistic imagination has been made real by God in the heavenly country as a reward.

India: Intellectual Property Environment In India
by Ranjan Narula
India presents an enormous opportunity, as well as a substantial challenge, to Intellectual Property (IP) owners. The past few years have seen major economic and legislative changes following accession to the WTO. The opening of the economy, and, in particular, the major role India is playing in the knowledge economy, has brought IP issues to the forefront. This article analyses some recent judicial and legislative changes that demonstrate India's commitment to establishing an effective IP framework. It also briefly outlines preventive measures that IP owners can take for timely protection and effective enforcement of their intellectual property rights in India.
Battling resilient counterfeiters
Unlike in China, where IP owners may find large factories producing counterfeit or infringing products, in India, you are likely to find a huge number of small and medium-sized industries which collectively have a big impact. At times, IP owners are reluctant to take action against small scale manufacturers thinking that their production volumes do not have sufficient impact on their sales. Our experience has shown that an early strike not only helps in restraining small players becoming organized, but can also deter new players from entering the trade.
The problem of counterfeiting in India varies from sophisticated operations where the target audience is an overseas market to a small re-filling operation. Typically, the operation would have a chain where a "rag picker" would bring the original used bottles, printing would be outsourced and in an overnight operation the filling would be done and products supplied on cash basis. Rising consumerism and an increasing appetite for branded goods among the middle class has given a boost to the counterfeit industry. More often than not there are markets, or pockets, which are infamous for a counterfeit activity. However, the operators have strong market associations which collectively oppose any raid action, often organizing a mob to create confusion so that, in the mayhem, counterfeit goods can slip away. They also seem to have their own network of informers and are often tipped off about possible search and seizure.
As a result, the role of investigators in helping companies address and control this problem is becoming very important. Companies are increasingly investing in finding out the various links in the chain so that the problem can be addressed more effectively. The information obtained can also form the basis of an effective IP strategy, addressing issues such as enforcement options (civil or criminal); choice of forum; and defenses that may be raised by the counterfeiter.
Recent IP reforms
India has amended its IP laws significantly during the last few years in order to comply with WTO regulations. Some of the changes that have direct implications for IP owners are outlined below:
New Trade Mark Law (effective from September 15, 2003)
The new legislation is in compliance with the TRIPS agreement and contains important provisions which have been widely welcomed by IP owners and practitioners. Service marks have been introduced and it is now possible to obtain registration for service marks in India.
Well known marks defined and broader protection given:
The new Act has laid down criteria for well known marks and provided broad protection in respect of them. It has also recognized the theory of dilution in respect of well known marks. Well known marks are given statutory protection, even when the allegedly infringing mark is being used on goods that are dissimilar to those for which the mark is registered.
Infringement redefined
The scope of infringement has been widened. One of the important changes has been to make it clear that use of a registered trade mark as part of a company name/business name will constitute trade mark infringement. This is quite useful for IP owners since, with the growth of the service industry in the last 10 years, there has been a growing tendency for infringers to adopt well known marks as part of their trade name/trading style.
Further use of marks, or deceptively similar marks, on similar goods (or even, in some circumstances, on dissimilar goods) may now amount to infringement.
Enforcement streamlined
Misuse of a trade mark has been made a cognizable and non bail-able offence. Powers have been given to police officers to search and seize premises in case of trade mark infringement. The police officer is, however, required to obtain the opinion of the Trade Marks Registrar on infringement of the trade mark.
Trade Mark registration streamlined
The new Act gives brand owners increased protection and makes it easier for them to enforce their rights in India. In addition, it helps streamline the registration procedure. The Trade Marks Office has also made procedural changes to address delays in the registration process, and clear the backlog of applications. The examination process has been decentralized and the Trade Marks Registry is issuing supplementary trade mark journals on CD ROMs to expedite publication of marks. With the procedural and statutory changes in place, new applications/mark are being registered within 2 years of filing (where no opposition has been filed), as opposed to 5-6 years previously.

Patent Law amended
Amendments to the Patents Act have been the subject of intense debate, particularly those relating to the grant of pharmaceutical product patents. The Patent Law despite controversies and lobbying for and against finally saw light of the day on January 1, 2005 in compliance of India's obligations as a WTO member. The act has been amended and product patent in relation to pharmaceutical products can now be registered in India.
The copyright law in India is largely TRIPS compliant. Major changes were made to the Indian Copyright Act in June 1994, coming into effect in May 1995. The amendments to the Act were a landmark in the copyright industry. The much required protection was given to computer software, clarifying the rights of the user to make backup copies and imposing heavy punishment and fines on infringers of software copyright. The Act is once again proposed to be amended in order to address challenges posed by digital environment in particular downloading of music, movies, books, software and other copyrighted material from the internet. The proposed amendments are awaiting approval from the parliament. The amendments would provide room for stricter Copyright law provisions in line with international standards.
Meanwhile, software piracy in India continues, however, to be a growing problem. Although the 1995 amendments provide increased statutory protection, there is a need for continuous education and enforcement efforts from the government and various industry alliances. A large number of PC users remain unaware of the law governing software piracy and believe it is legal to copy software.
Piracy in the media and entertainment industries continues to be rampant. Illegal screening of films by cable operators; sale of counterfeit cassettes and CDs; downloading of music onto MP3s; and unauthorized broadcasting continues to decimate legitimate business.
Similarly, book piracy continues to damage the publishing industry. The business of book piracy is a lucrative one in India. Whereas a legitimate copy of a book may sell for $8-9, a pirated version can be produced for 50-60 cents and sold for $3. Thus, profit margins are high. The publishers are lobbying the Government to improve enforcement and awareness amongst the trade and public.
Brand owners Woes
Different field of activity/business
One of the common problems faced by global brand owners in the Indian market is that due to popularity of their brands they are indiscriminately copied by Indian companies for completely different or unrelated goods. Incidence of well known brands being used as part of corporate/trade name is quite common. It is quite challenging to stop such use particularly where it is adopted for completely different or unrelated goods. The obvious argument of the traders in such cases is that because there is no commonality of trade channels, end users of products or services, no confusion will be caused.
The Indian Courts have, over a period of time, embraced international developments and handed down a number of landmark judgments that have changed the face of IP litigation. They have, for example, repeatedly confirmed that it is not necessary to have actual physical sale of goods in India. The doctrine of 'trans border' and 'spill over' reputation in famous marks has been recognized by the courts. The Supreme Court in a trade mark dispute involving medicines held that "medicines are international in character". Thus, use of a mark on medicines in countries outside India may be just as relevant as use of the mark in India.
Concept of Costs and damages
Until recently, the concept of awarding costs and damages in IP disputes by the courts in India was not fully developed. Thus, counterfeiters/infringers had little or no financial deterrence. Generally, the infringers are not likely to maintain proper records of the transactions made and thus the damages could not be quantified. Also the process of determining damages on the basis of actual or potential loss suffered by the right holder being cumbersome the IP holders would generally give up their claim. Increasingly the Indian courts are now recognizing a need to impose financial penalties in the form of awarding damages to discourage law breakers from violating the intellectual property of right holders. The courts are not only awarding compensatory damages but also punitive damages. In an action brought by publisher of Time Magazine, the court awarded approx. US$ 11,000 as punitive damages and in an action by Microsoft, the court awarded approx. US$ 43,800 as compensatory damages.
Practical tips for IP owners
Secure your rights
Invest in investigations
Stringent and watertight agreements
Timely actions
clear enforcement strategy
Choosing a strategy
Finally, the debate as to which is the most effective way of combating counterfeiting in India goes on. Unlike China, there are no administrative remedies available in India for enforcement of intellectual property rights. Therefore, the possible options to seek relief are either civil or criminal route or both. There are obviously advantages and disadvantages in both Civil action (through the Courts) and Criminal action (through the police).
The choice of remedy should, perhaps, be dictated by the objective sought to be achieved. If, for example, it is a market level problem and you want to carry out multiple raids at various locations, criminal action will be a better option. On the other hand, if you have an identified target to go after, which is either a manufacturing unit or a big wholesaler/importer, civil action would be the preferred route. It may be pertinent to mention that it is common for civil courts to appoint "court commissioners" with powers to search premises, seize goods, inspect books of account and in some cases destroy infringing goods. In many cases, the court order provides for police assistance during raids. Thus the impact of raids in a civil action is as of action through police.
To sum up, as in any other developing country, working with law enforcement authorities and courts in India can be quite challenging. However, so long as IP holders are clear about their objectives and have an appropriate strategy in place, it should be possible to achieve the desired result.

The Patents Act 1970, along with the Patents Rules 1972, came into force on 20th April 1972, replacing the Indian Patents and Designs Act 1911. The Patents Act was largely based on the recommendations of the Ayyangar Committee Report headed by Justice N. Rajagopala Ayyangar. One of the recommendations was the allowance of only process patents with regard to inventions relating to drugs, medicines, food and chemicals.

Mark Meadows pushed a conspiracy theory that China used thermostats to hack into voting machines.
A new CNN report reveals more details about Meadows' efforts to subvert the 2020 election.
Meadows pressured federal agencies, including the DOJ, to investigate bogus voter fraud claims.
Former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows contacted high-ranking national security officials about a conspiracy theory that China hacked into voting machines with thermostats as part of his efforts to subvert the 2020 election results, CNN reports.
Meadows used his powerful position in the Trump administration to further the former president's efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss, including pressuring federal agencies to investigate or back up unfounded conspiracy theories, congressional investigations have shown.
CNN reported that Meadows reached out to officials at the FBI, the Pentagon, the National Security Council, and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, to ask them to look into the groundless Chinese thermostat hacking theory.
That conspiracy theory and others were also being espoused by former President Donald Trump's lawyer Rudy Giuliani, attorney Sidney Powell, and former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, two of the most high-profile purveyors of outlandish conspiracy theories about hacking and fraud in the 2020 elections.
"Meadows was perpetually enabling this insane stuff and was too scared to stand up to Trump," a source who was in several meetings with Meadows with the White House and other agencies told CNN.
The new reporting from CNN adds on to revelations from troves of emails between Meadows and top officials at the Department of Justice obtained by the House Oversight Committee and Senate Judiciary Committee and released during summer 2021.
They show that Meadows, among other things, sent Acting Attorney General Jeff Rosen a link to a YouTube video from a man named Brad Johnson claiming that Italy had also hacked into voting machines with military satellites to steal the election from Trump, a conspiracy theory known as "ItalyGate."
Rosen forwarded the email to a deputy, Richard Donoghue, who replied: "Pure insanity."
"I responded that Johnson could call or walk into FBI's Washington Field Office with any evidence he purports to have," Rosen later wrote to Donoghue "On a follow up call, I learned that Johnson is working with Rudy Giuliani, who regarded my comments as 'an insult.' Asked if I would reconsider, I flatly refused, said I would not be giving any special treatment to Giuliani or any of his 'witnesses,' and re-affirmed yet again that I will not talk to Giuliani about any of this."
Former DOJ official Jeffrey Clark also pushed conspiracy theories among senior officials, documents obtained by the House Oversight Committee show. In a December 28 email, Clark told Rosen and Donoghue: "I would like to have your authorization to get a classified briefing tomorrow from ODNI led by DNI Radcliffe on foreign election interference issues," adding, "Hackers have evidence (in the public domain) that a Dominion machine accessed the Internet through a smart thermostat with a net connection trail leading back to China. ODNI may have additional classified evidence."
Meadows also contributed to Trump's efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss in Georgia. He pressed DOJ officials to investigate various purported election irregularities, the emails show, and participated in the infamous January 2, 2021 phone call where Trump pressured Georgia's chief election official and his staff to "find" him the 11,780 votes necessary for him to overcome his election loss in the state.
Meadows is set to voluntarily cooperate with the House Select Committee investigating the January 6 insurrection, Committee Chair Rep. Bennie Thompson announced on Tuesday, and is expected to sit for a deposition in the next week.
The former chief of staff discusses his actions and conversations with Trump on January 6 — a key focus of the committee — in his forthcoming book "The Chief's Chief." Meadows voluntarily writing about the events in his book undercuts his ability to claim that such conversations and records are protected from the committee's scrutiny by executive privilege.
"It's...very possible that by discussing the events of Jan. 6 in his book, if he does that, he's waiving any claim of privilege. So, it'd be very difficult for him to maintain 'I can't speak about events to you, but I can speak about them in my book,'" Rep. Adam Schiff, a member of the Select Committee, told Politico.
In the memoir, obtained by the Guardian, Meadows doubles down on the lie that widespread voter fraud led to the 2020 election being stolen from Trump, characterizing him as "in mourning for the second term he had been unfairly denied." He also downplays the violence caused by the rioters, who attacked and injured an estimated 1,000 law enforcement officers, as committed by "a handful of fanatics."

Asmodai
Previous (Asmara)
Next (Asparagine)
A depiction of Asmodeus in Collin de Plancy's Dictionnaire Infernal.
Asmodai (or Asmodeus) (Other spelling variations of the name include Ashmadia, Ashmedai, Asmodaios-Ασμοδαίος, Asmoday, Asmodée, Asmodee, Asmodei, Ashmodei, Ashmodai, Asmodeios, Asmodeo, Asmodeu, Asmodeius, Asmodi, Chammaday, Chashmodai, Sidonay, and Sydonai) is a semi-Biblical demon described primarily in the deuterocanonical Book of Tobit, and mentioned in Talmudic legends such as the story of the construction of the Temple of Solomon. In some rabbinic sources, Asmodai was considered to be the king of the demons (Targ. to Eccl. i. 13; Pes. 110a; Yer. Shek. 49b) analogous to Samael ("the angel of death") or "Satan."
2 Textual references
2.1 In the Book of Tobit
2.2 In the Talmud
2.3 In the Testament of Solomon
2.4 In the Malleus Maleficarum
2.5 In the Dictionnaire Infernal
2.6 In the Lesser Key of Solomon
The existence of demons is a common belief in many world religions and cultures from Asia through Africa and the Middle East to North America. In many religions, demons are the antithesis of goodness, locked in an ultimately futile and losing struggle against God; nevertheless, some religions see demons as ultimately redeemable beings.
The name "Asmodai" derives from the Avestan language: Aeshma-daeva, where aeshma means "wrath," and daeva signifies "demon." While the daeva Aeshma is thus Zoroastrianism's demon of wrath and is also well attested as such, the compound aeshma-daeva is not attested in scripture. It is nonetheless likely that such a form did exist, and that the Book of Tobit's "Asmodeus" (Ασμοδαῖος) and the Talmud's "Ashmedai" (ˀšmdˀy) reflect it.
Although there are also functional parallels between Zoroastrianism's Aeshma (demon of "wrath") and Judaism's Asmodai/Asmodeus, the linguistic relationship does not necessarily denote conceptual continuity.
Textual references
In the Book of Tobit
The Asmodeus of the Book of Tobit is attracted by Sarah, Raguel's daughter, and is not willing to let any husband possess her (Tobit, vi.13); hence he slays seven successive husbands on their wedding-nights, thus impeding the consummation of the sexual act. When the young Tobias is about to marry her, Asmodeus purposes the same fate for him; but Tobias is enabled, through the counsels of his attendant angel Raphael, to render him innocuous. By placing a fish's heart and liver on red-hot cinders, Tobias produces a smoky vapor which causes the demon to flee to Egypt, where Raphael binds him (viii.2, 3).
Asmodeus would thus seem to be a demon characterized by carnal desire; but he is also described as an evil spirit in general: 'Ασμοδαίος τὸ πονηρὸν δαιμόνιον or τõ δαιμόνιον πονηρόν, and πνεῦμα ἀκάϑαρτον (iii.8, 17; vi.13; viii.3). It is possible, moreover, that the statement (vi.14), "Asmodeus loved Sarah," implies that he was attracted not by women in general, but by Sarah only.
In the Talmud
The figure of Ashmedai in the Talmud is less harmful in character than Tobit's Asmodeus. In the former, he appears repeatedly in the light of a good-natured and humorous fellow. But besides that, there is one feature in which he parallels Asmodeus, inasmuch as his desires turn upon Solomon's wives and Bath-sheba. But even here, Ashmedai seems more comparable to a Greek satyr, rather than to an evil demon.
Another Talmudic legend has King Solomon tricking Asmodai into collaborating in the construction of the temple of Jerusalem. In yet another legend Asmodai changed place for some years with King Solomon. An aggadic narrative describes him as the king of all the shades (Pesachim 109b-112a). Another passage describes him as marrying Lilith, who became his queen.[1]
It is also stated that he was the off-spring of the union between Adam and the angel of prostitution, Naamah, conceived whilst Adam was married to Lilith.
In the Testament of Solomon
In the Testament of Solomon, a first-third century text, the king invokes Asmodeus to aid in the construction of the Temple. The demon appears and predicts Solomon's kingdom will one day be divided (Testament of Solomon 5:4-5). When Solomon interrogated Asmodeus further, the king learns that Asmodeus is thwarted by the angel Raphael, as well as by sheatfish found in the rivers of Assyria. He also admits to hating water.
In the Malleus Maleficarum
In the Malleus Maleficarum (1486), Asmodai was considered the demon of lust, to which agreed Sebastian Michaelis saying that his adversary is St. John. Some demonologists of the sixteenth century assigned each month to a demon and considered November to be the month in which Asmodai's power was stronger. Other demonologists asserted that his zodiacal sign was Aquarius but only between the dates of January 30 and February 8.
He has seventy-two legions of demons under his command. He is one of the Kings of Hell under Lucifer the emperor. He incites gambling, and is the overseer of all the gambling houses in the court of Hell. Some Catholic theologians compared him with Abaddon. Yet other authors considered Asmodai a prince of revenge.
In the Dictionnaire Infernal
In the Dictionnaire Infernal by Collin de Plancy, Asmodai is depicted with the breast of a man, legs of a cockerel, serpent tail, three heads (one of a man spitting fire, one of a sheep, and one of a bull), riding a lion with dragon wings and neck, all of these animals being associated with either lascivity, lust or revenge.
In the Lesser Key of Solomon
Asmodai appears as the king "Asmoday" in the Ars Goetia, where he is said to have a seal in gold and is listed as number thirty-two according to respective rank.[2]
He "is strong, powerful and appears with three heads; the first is like a bull, the second like a man, and the third like a ram; the tail of a serpent, and from his mouth issue flames of fire." Also, he sits upon an infernal dragon, holds a lance with a banner and, amongst the Legions of Amaymon,, Asmoday governs seventy two legions of inferior spirits.

Sharp and genuinely funny, this YA novel certainly "isn't the love story it's supposed to be."
Hiding out in a California hotel room 3,000 miles from his home in New Jersey, 17-year-old narrator Jim sets out to write the real story of what happened, as opposed to the one that's plastered across newspapers and splashed all over TV. It all started when Jim's mother ran away from home, leaving Jim upset, confused and flustered. At the same time, Jim realizes he's in love with his best friend and celebrity wannabe Zanny. He e-mails Zanny anonymously, and she eventually tells him that she knows he's the sender but that she deletes each one after reading it. But (uh-oh, Jim), she printed them first. Horrified that he'll be found out by others and used by Zanny as the attention-getter she's sought her entire life, Jim drunkenly invades her house, finds the printed emails, and, as Zanny's parents call the police, escapes out the window and into a tree. The police arrive and, stuck in the tree, Jim furiously shoves the e-mails down his throat. A passerby spies him, though, and snaps a photo of him as he's putting a paper with the huge-font word LOVE visible on it. Jim, to his dismay, becomes the subject of a giant human-interest story that the public eats up. Zanny finally has her 15 minutes and, manipulated by her, Jim suddenly finds himself on a national media tour. Liquor, sex, and betrayals of and by various friends and relatives are excised from Zanny's saccharine (and inaccurate) bestseller. Now, back in the California hotel room, having escaped the spotlight, Jim puts on paper the real story. Is his book called Idiot!? Perhaps . . .
The author thankfully avoids a pat ending, adding a dash of hope to the story's sense of humor–despite a frustrating lack of communication between just about everyone.

COVID-19 outbreak – Delhi govt installs 2 sanitisation tunnels at Azadpur mandi
In a bid to prevent the further spread of COVID-19, the Government of Delhi, on Friday, installed two sanitisation tunnels at the gates of Azadpur Mandi which is Asia's largest wholesale market. Each and every person entering the market have to go through the sanitisation tunnel.
On the installation of the project, Gopal Rai, Development Minister, Delhi said that if the preventive measure taken turns out to be successful, more such tunnels will be installed at all the other mandis in the city. The Minister, further said that the Azadpur mandi is operational as it is the hub from where all the essential items are supplied to the city. Every person entering or exiting the mandi has to go through the tunnel, this will prevent the COVID-19 spread in the area, he added.
The sanitisation tunnels have been developed by the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Delhi. The shop owners and traders have been asked to maintain social distancing. The Minister also informed that the authorities have marked circles to ensure social distancing. Special attention will be given to cleanliness at the market apart from ensuring that those visiting the mandi or employed there wore masks, added the Minister.
The government is taking measures to educate and make people aware of the COVID-19 situation. Also, it is being taken care that nobody is without food. "I have instructed all labourers and traders to wear masks. The Delhi government is distributing masks among people here. To sensitise the workers here, we are distributing pamphlets and disinfectants are being sprayed at the mandi daily. We are also providing morning and evening meals to the drivers and labourers," he said.

In a saucepan, put evaporated milk and condensed milk mixture and put over low heat. When it started to simmer, add the bloomed gulaman and whisk until completely dissolved. Remove from heat and mix the all-purpose cream and pour into molds. Chill in fridge until set and top with sweetened mango and syrup (mix mango and 1/2 cup sugar and simmer until mangoes are cooked) before serving.
For healthier option, you may replace evaporated milk with non-fat milk, condensed milk with ¼ cup honey (but increase the quantity of non-fat milk to 1 ½ cup if using honey), all-purpose cream with plain yogurt.
You can also use fresh fruits as toppings except mango, pineapple, or kiwi. These fruits will have components that can break down gelatin.
You can also use ice cream instead of all-purpose cream.
If you are using chilled all-purpose cream or ice cream, be sure to mix it fast and immediately put into molds.

Irish hockey: JACC we hardly knew ye
Jeff_Jackson_for_Pres.
I miss Christian and Mark.
The only tolerable thing about the end of college hockey season is playoff time in the NHL. While this past season was a pleasant surprise, I wish ND could have played just one more game. I guess that's what next season is for...
So...looking ahead to next season, ND should be in a pod with BG, FSU, OSU and UAF. They could conceivably play 37 games, as 3 of their games are exempt (2 at UA[F] and the HOF game against Minnesota). We will see WMU, Miami and Michigan here, but travel to E. Lansing, the Soo and Marquette. Coach Jackson alluded to a New Year's Eve game here against BU and possibly a series here with Northeastern that could see the return of Dr. Craig. There is also that game against BC in the works. Rumor is that's the game that opens the Compton Family Center.
ND starts the season at defending national champs UMD October 7-8. Then RPI visits South Bend for a single game on October 21st. The new arena is scheduled to open a few days prior to this, but (no offense towards RPI), I can't see this being the "grand opening" game. I would think (hope) that honor would be reserved for a hated opponent (Miami, Michigan, BC spring to mind). If the rink is a go in October, the last weekend is a possibility, but the football team is at home, so a single game against BC that Friday (10/28) or a Thursday-Friday series with Michigan or Miami (or whoever) could accommodate the almighty.
ND travels to the UP to play NMU the first weekend in November, then returns home to face UA(F) the following weekend. ND plays Minnesota in the Hall of Fame game. This game should be January 7 and will likely be outdoors. ND travels to Alaska the last weekend in January. Since I will be climbing my first mountain next summer, I could use either of those weekends to get used to the cold (granted flying to Minnesota is cheaper and quicker than travel to the 49th state).
Looking back, I wanted to try a little Campbellnomics with ND's returning major players. For those of you not familiar with Campbellnomics, Ken Campbell is a writer for The Hockey News. He looks at all the goals scored in the NHL and rates them relative to the jump they give a team (1st goal, tying goal, go ahead goal, etc.). As for Notre Dame's returnees, Anders Lee ranks #1 with 35 points for the importance of his goals. T.J. Tynan is 2nd with 26 points. Jeff Costello comes next with 20, followed by Nick Larson with 13, Billy Maday with 10, Riley Sheahan with 9, David Gerths-8, Sean Lorenz-6, Bryan Rust-5, Sam Calabrese-4 and Stephen Johns-2.
It's a mere 24 weeks til ND begins their next season. In the coming months we can speculate on who will be the captains (I've already got my letter-wearers picked), who will be the next Ryan Guentzel, and who will be the next dynamic freshman...or freshmen. Can't wait.

"Hockey is the only tribe I belong to." --Jack Falla
"Why, as a matter of fact, I suggested starting a hockey program to Father Callahan, our president. He was downright interested until we came to the use of sticks, and then he threw up his hands. He said, 'No, that game is not for our University. Notre Dame will never endorse any game that puts a club in the hands of an Irishman.' " -- Knute Rockne: All American

I would think (hope) that honor would be reserved for a hated opponent (Miami, Michigan, BC spring to mind).

A bunch of my RPI friends and I are thinking of making the trip out to South Bend for the game on the 21st. We'd love to be the first opponent in the new arena...though I guess that decision is up to the Athletic department. (That said, beating BC would be a great way to open a new arena.)
We did have a question about Notre Dame football tickets. Obviously the fact that it is USC/Notre Dame means it's a tough ticket. What's the best ("inexpensive") way to get tickets for the game? Stub Hub has upper end zone nosebleeds starting at $350 each. Is that realistic, or are their cheaper alternatives? I'm guessing that the ticket office completely sells out the game between season ticket holders, alums, and current students. Thanks.

I hadn't realized we had moved on yet to the latest off-season edition of Notre Dame hockey on USCHO
While some former Irish skaters are golfing, some are still winning hockey games, like the trio of former Irish players who helped Milwaukee advance in the AHL playoffs.
This may be an off-season of rumors and rampant speculation. We may not only have players who are coveted, but coaches as well! I expect little or nothing to change before the puck drops in the fall, though. There is much for the coaches to work with over the spring and summer, and knowing how Jackson works, I expect most of the weaknesses evident this past season to be eliminated. With so many new faces in the mix, the usual break in periods weren't possible, and there were a lot of minutes skated where pure talent and trial by fire were the things to rely on. Now with a year's worth of games to draw upon, I look for a more typical looking Jackson team to emerge pretty quickly next season. The sky truly is the limit for this collection of players. There isn't a single thing they CAN'T accomplish.
The best way is to hope that Notre Dame is 3-3 coming into this game and not 6-0. The secondary market surrounding Notre Dame Stadium (AKA scalpers) is usually an easy way to get tickets if you want to wait until gameday, and especially game time. I know people who attend games every year and the only way they get tickets is through the scalpers right up to kick-off. Regardless of the records of either team the Notre Dame/USC game is always a marquee event on the schedule, though. And you guess correctly about tickets, Notre Dame games are always officially "sold out" by game time. The USC game will have no tickets available via Notre Dame unless the visiting team returns a portion of the allotment they request in the weeks prior to the game, something that has happened often enough in recent seasons. Again, for a game like USC IF that happens, those will go quickly and likely be gone before most are aware of their availability.
Here's a time lapse video of the new arena courtesy of NDNation's posters.

Stub Hub has upper end zone nosebleeds starting at $350 each.
It's a rough ticket to get if you don't want to risk finding a scalper dumping tickets. Always been worth it for me, except 2007, we aren't going to talk about that.

Our hockey alums in the AHL are having a great postseason Calder Cup chase. Follow Binghamton and Milwaukee during the division finals.
Members of the hockey program toured the CFC.
And the members of this hockey program will officially "dedicate" the Compton Family Center with a game against Boston College on November 18th. No word if this will be the first game at the new place, but one would hope the first 7 weeks of the season would not be played on the road or at the Joyce Center. The building is still supposed to be ready October 18th. I'm sure I'm not alone in thinking this day would never come.
For the 4th year in a row, there will be a team with ties to the Notre Dame hockey program competing for the Stanley Cup. Last year Brad Aldrich was the video coordinator for the Blackhawks (and was the first to notify the bench that Kane's shot did win the Cup) after leaving that position here. The prior year saw Mark Eaton hoist the Cup with the Pens and before that Brett Lebda did the same with the Wings. This year, either Vancouver will make the final round with Victor Oreskovich on their roster or San Jose will. Remember that Kevin Compton is part owner of the Sharks and big contributor to our beloved program.
What's up with ND travelling to Oxford for our series against Miami?! That makes two seasons in a row that we've had to play there. (I'm taking out last season in this equation as we were in the same cluster) If that is etched in stone, then the chain reaction starts of some other team having to come here 2 seasons in a row...

Yeah, science!
You are incorrect about the clusters. It's kind of strange with 11 teams, but there are now 2 clusters. This year's groupings:
"Cluster A": Lake Superior, Miami, Michigan, Michigan State, Northern Michigan, Ohio State.
"Cluster B": Alaska, Bowling Green, Ferris State, Notre Dame, Western Michigan.
(I don't really know what to call the clusters; I guess it's better than the "Leaders" cluster and the "Legends" cluster.)
Obviously, with 6 teams in "Cluster A", that's too many games if you play everybody in your cluster four times, so they pair up the 6 teams and one pair plays each other only twice--Lake Superior/Michigan, Miami/Michigan State, and Northern Michigan/Ohio State only play each other one series each.
What this means for Notre Dame (since I am posting on a Notre Dame thread) is that ND has 4 games against Alaska, Bowling Green, Ferris State and Western Michigan. Notre Dame will have 2 home games against Michigan, Michigan State and Ohio State, with 2 away games against Lake Superior, Miami and Northern Michigan.

Yugoslavia: Serbian Troops Reported In Albania; Albright And Ivanov Meet
Tirana, 13 April 1999 (RFE/RL) - Albanian government leaders held an emergency meeting today following reports that Serbian troops have crossed the border into Albania from Kosovo. Prime Minister Pandeli Majko met in Tirana with Defense Minister Luan Hajdaraga and Army Chief of Staff Aleks Andoni. A spokesman said they discussed a reaction and will coordinate any response with NATO. Albania's Interior Minister Petro Koci said the Serbian troops had crossed the border, had exchanged fire with Albanian border police and had seized control of the village of Kamenica. Reports said artillery fire could be heard in the district.
In Belgrade, Yugoslav Foreign Ministry spokesman Nebojsa Vujovic denied reports that Serbian forces had crossed into Albania. Vujovic said such allegations are nothing more than Albanian propaganda. A spokesman in Vienna for the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe said that, according to OSCE monitors in Albania, the advancing Serbian infantry units had burned a number of houses and other buildings.
It's unclear whether the Serbs then retreated or are still on Albanian territory. Serbian units have reportedly made brief incursions over the border on previous days, apparently in pursuit of guerrillas of the Kosovo Liberation Army.
In Oslo, U.S. State Department spokesman James Rubin said NATO will consider with "utmost seriousness" any attempt by Yugoslavia to widen the Kosovo conflict.
Also in Oslo, the U.S. and Russian foreign ministers met today and said they find it "good and useful" to continue discussions on ending the Kosovo crisis but still disagree on the method to achieve that end.
Speaking at a joint press conference, U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright and her Russian counterpart, Igor Ivanov, agreed that settlement of the crisis required the fullfilment of several principles. These include the immediate end of violence in Kosovo, withdrawal of police and paramilitary forces from the province, return of Kosovo Albanians and opening up possibilities for international humanitarian groups to work with displaced people.
Ivanov said the two sides also agreed that a settlement could only be achieved throught political means and that the international community will have to play a major role in reaching that goal. But both Albright and Ivanov said they failed to reach agreement on an international force to monitor peace and enable refugees to return home.

High Creatinine Level is a typical symptom for patients with Crhronic Kidney Disease or Kidney Failure, which can affect patients' life greatly! With the condition, patients concern more about treatments. Is there an medication one can take to lower elevated creatinine level?
Yes. Of course. There are many medications that can help control or even normalize creatinine level. Through the following comparison and based on your illness condition, I believe that you will make a wise decision! Any questions, you also can email to me at kidney-symptoms@hotmail.com or leave a message here!
It is one important non-dialysis treatment for kidney failure patients. It can help lower creatinine level, alleviate symptoms and complications, slow down illness progression and protect residual renal function.
Diuretics are common medications taken by kidney disease patients, because diuretics work through stimulating the kidneys to produce more urine and take away more waste products and toxins.
There are many natural hers and treatments that can help cleanse the kidneys and improve renal filtering function so as yo wash more creatinine and other wastes out of the body. The common recommended herbs include dandelion root, milk thistle, corn silk, nettle leaf, Cordyceps sinensis, and so on.
Aside from herbal medicines, there are many natural treatments that can help repair kidney damage and improve renal function from the root in Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital. Let's take Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy as an example.
It is a combination of TCM and modern medical technology. With help of osmosis device, the active ingredients in the medicines can permeate into kidney lesions directly. Through playing functions like dilating blood vessels, anti-inflammation, anti-coagulation, degrading extracellular matrix, impaired kidneys can get enough oxygen and clean blood for functioning again. As long as kidney function can be well improved, elevated creatinine level will be naturally reduced from the root!

San Benito ISD Insurance Consultant In Hot Water
SAN BENITO — School board member Oscar Medrano wants the superintendent to fire an insurance consulutant who would not name the company that would insure the district. Medrano and board member Anna Cruz on Monday said they had learned that the Salazar Insurance Group was the company that offered the insurance plan that consultant Glenn Hillyer recommended without naming.
The Salazar insurance company is the same agent that school board president Yliana Rodriguez hired in May without the board's approval. She issued a memo two days later rescinding her action.
The school board meets at today to vote on the matter.
In an email sent to Superintendent Antonio Limon on Aug. 9, Medrano said Hillyer, a consultant hired to advise the district about its insurance, should be fired because Hillyer recommended an insurance plan offered by the Salazar company.
In a school finance committee workshop on Aug. 7, Medrano said, Hillyer recommended insurance plans but would not name the insurance agent that would provide those plans. Hillyer said he wasn't required to name an insurance agent.
But Medrano and Cruz said they won't vote to award the district's insurance contract for a so-called "cafeteria plan" to Salazar as the third-party insurance administrator.
Cruz said she won't vote to hire Salazar because the district's current third-party insurance agent, the Bob Treviño insurance company in Pharr, has a year remaining on its contract with the district.
"We feel we were lied to," Medrano Friday. "If we're going to have Glen Hillyer as a consultant, he has to be upfront with us. This is taxpayer money. It involves our employees." School attorney Juan Cabrera said Hillyer was not required to name the company in the finance meeting because it is an informal forum but the agent's name must disclose at today's school board meeting.
Hillyer said he followed procedure at the finance meeting.
"The information that's going around is completely unfounded," Hillyer said of the accusations. "If anyone takes an objective look at this, they'll realize this process is completely normal with no interference whatsoever."
Rodriguez and Limon did not return messages requesting comment Monday.

Hands Up!  est le cinquième album original du groupe Dream (ex "dream"), sorti en 2010, en excluant mini-albums, albums de reprises, album live et compilations.

Présentation

L'album sort le  au Japon sous le label Rhythm Zone. Il atteint la  du classement Oricon, et reste classé pendant deux semaines. Malgré ce relativement bon classement, c'est en fait l'un des albums les moins vendus du groupe, faisant juste mieux que les deux précédents (Greatest Live Hits et DRM). Il sort aussi en édition "CD+DVD" avec une pochette différente, incluant un DVD contenant les clips vidéos de quatre des chansons et douze titres enregistrés lors d'un concert récent.

C'est le premier album du groupe à sortir sous le nom Dream (avec majuscule), et le premier à sortir sous le label Rhythm Zone. C'est le premier et dernier album sorti par la formation du groupe à six membres, après le départ de Yū Hasebe en 2008 et avant celui de Kana Tachibana en , la dernière membre d'origine. Le groupe n'avait plus sorti d'albums sous le nom dream depuis quatre ans, sortant seulement un mini-album mi-2007 sous le nom DRM.

L'album contient quatorze chansons, dont neuf étaient déjà parues sur les quatre singles du groupe sortis précédemment (dont deux en indépendant). Deux des cinq chansons inédites, Promise et Change, sont utilisées comme thèmes musicaux pour le jeu vidéo pour PlayStation 3 Trinity Zill O'll Zero.
Sort aussi à cette occasion une version mini-album homonyme sous-titrée Trinity Zill O'll Zero Edition ne contenant que sept des titres de l'album, avec une pochette différente liée au jeu vidéo et incluant un DVD différent avec deux documentaires, sur le jeu et sur le groupe.
