Kate Bush – The sensual world (1989)
Henke	Vinyl	 2019-06-16 2019-11-12 2 Minutes
Give me that little kiss
The album starts off with some bells in the distance. Knowing that David Gilmour is playing on two of the tracks gives me high hopes that this album will be influenced by his Pink Floyd. It isn't, instead we get a too heavily produced album, her weakest album so far quite clearly. Have we come to Kate's "Phil Collins" years maybe? To me, it feels less interesting musically and production-wise than the first five albums at least.
Kate is still drawing inspiration from books and films. The opening track "The sensual world" is inspired by James Joyce's Ulysses and the last song "This woman's work" is taken from the John Hughes film "She's having a baby". It's crazy that such a majestic song has that background. I mean I love John Hughes' movies, but it feels like belittling for this major piece of music.
"Love and anger" is an anonymous and somewhat generic song until the end when Gilmour's guitar solo appears. Two songs about parents and children and love and longing is followed by a curios little gem "Heads we're dancing". It's a darkly comical "what if" scenario where a stranger gets a dance with Kate if he wins a coin flip. I appreciate the levity of the song. And the ending part of the song is rather heavy.
The second side is opened with "Deeper understanding" that makes me think about Spike Jonze's movie "Her" from 2013. It is a bittersweet song about a lonely soul that find solace via a computer program.
Many songs on the album reminds me about the sound of late 80's and 90's Peter Gabriel.
The penultimate song "Rocket's tail" will wake you up in time for the finish. Great lyrics, nice heavy drums, Gilmour's guitar and the perfect use of the Trio Bulgarka is all there. Kate's singing on the album is sublime as always, but on this song, she also extends in a funny way on the home stretch.
The final song is "This woman's work" and this is maybe her best song. Ever. It is so beautiful that I sometimes get tears in my eyes listening to it. It is bumping this album up a couple of notches. It's brutal.
However strong "This woman's work" is, I have never fallen for this album. It even had me forgetting about Kate Bush for many moons. It is a tragedy. I have been aware of her newer stuff, of course I have bought them on cd, but I didn't invest in her. The new music was basically uncharted territory to me. I did not give in, or my all. All this changed when I bought the four "Remastered in vinyl" boxes. It was like a new spring, and thus I began to discover the second part of Kate's career.
My rating: 4/10
The sensual world
Love and anger
Heads we're dancing
Deeper understanding
Between a man and a woman
Never be mine
Rocket's tail
This woman's work
Best song: "This woman's work"

Baltimore, Maryland — The American Northeast (Mid-Atlantic)
Carroll Mansion
By Beverly Pfingsten, October 28, 2007
1. Carroll Mansion Marker
Carroll Mansion. Charles Carroll of Carrollton (1737–1832), the last surviving, and only Roman Catholic signer of the Declaration of Independence, wintered here during the last twelve years of his life. . . Built circa 1808, the mansion is the grandest Federal era (1780–1820) merchant's townhouse standing in the City of Baltimore today. The ground floor was used for business and family gatherings, the second for formal entertaining, and the third for sleeping. . . The mansion was sold to the Sisters of Mercy, who had come to Baltimore from Pittsburgh in 1855. By the mid-nineteenth century, German and Irish immigrants were renting rooms in the Mansion, and by 1857 a saloon was located here. It operated until 1889. . . By the 1890's, Russian Jews, many of them skilled tailors, rented rooms in the Mansion. It was transformed into a "sweatshop" for clothing manufacture. It continued as a sweatshop and home to immigrants into the early twentieth century. . . In 1914, as part of the nationally sponsored Star-Spangled Banner Centennial Celebration, the Carroll Mansion was purchased by the City of Baltimore for preservation. It became the first vocational school in the city. From 1929 until 1954, the Mansion housed a recreation center. In the early 1960's Mayor Theodore McKeldin spearheaded the effort to completely renovate the Carroll Mansion and to transform it into a publicly owned historic house museum. .

4. Residence 1804 - 1846 Interior marker in Carroll Mansion
Before Mr. Carroll Lived Here
Contrary to a story which gained credence around 1914, this house was not a wedding gift from Charles Carroll to his son-in-law and daughter, Richard and Mary Carroll Caton. The land was originally purchased in 1804 by Robert Lawson, a constable and land speculator.
By 1808, a small structure stood on the southwest corner of King George and Stillhouse streets. Later owners, Henry Wilson and Christopher Deshon, expanded the house to its present dimensions, about 50 feet square. In 1818, Mr. Caton bought it as a winter residence.
The Carroll Mansion is a federal-era "merchant's townhouse," one of the finest still standing in Baltimore. The proportions of its rooms, its main staircase and other architectural details tells the visitor that it was built to impress.
At Home With Charles Carroll
In Mr. Carroll's day, the mansion's grounds extended to the Jones Falls. Here were contained terraced gardens with shrubs, flowers, and fruit trees, a cistern, carriage house, stable, and servant's quarters.
During the 1820s and 1830s, the home was renowned for the gracious hospitality of its mistress and because the last surviving signer of the Declaration of Independence lived here. With Mr. Carroll and the Catons also lived Emily Caton MacTavish, her husband, John, and their four children. About twenty servants and slaves served the family.
Following the deaths of Mr. and Mrs. Caton in 1845 and 1846, the house apparently went into disuse. In 1855 Mrs. MacTavish sold the house to the Sisters of Mercy.
In 1827, Mrs. Basil Hall, a visitor to the mansion, remarked of Charles Carroll: "...I cannot say that I discovered one single mark of old age either in his manner, appearance or faculties, although he is now in the ninety-second year of his age..."
5. Marker describing later uses of the Carroll Mansion - New Uses 1857 - 1889
A German "Grocery" in Mr. Carroll's House
For 32 years, a saloon operated in this room and the one adjacent to it. In the nineteenth century, neighborhood stores known as "groceries," sold beer and liquor. Groceries evolved into what we know today as saloons. Saloons were neighborhood gathering spots, and often had an ethnic and class base.
At mid-century, Jonestown was heavily populated by German and Irish immigrants, many of the laboring class. These workingmen enjoyed the 'male culture' they found in saloons. There they found companions whose occupations, ethnicity, or neighborhood they shared.
The Sisters and the Saloonkeepers
In 1855, Emily Caton MacTavish, daughter of Richard and Mary Caton, sold the house to the Sisters of Mercy, recently arrived from Pittsburgh.
The Sisters rented the mansion almost immediately to Jacob Seeger, a German brewer who had immigrated to Maryland in 1831. he owned a distillery a few blocks west of the mansion. Mr. Seeger sublet the Carroll Mansion to a series of barkeepers, known to include Charles Kaiser and Henry Fischer. In 1868, Mr. Seeger bought the Mansion

6. The Carroll Family - Interior Marker
An Extraordinary Beginning
Charles Carroll of Carrollton descended from a remarkable family. With great wealth, a superb classical education received in France and England, and a sense of mission, he rose above the religious persecution his forebears had faced and succeeded in politics and business.
Grandfather's Legacy
Charles Carroll the Settler established the family in America. Hoping to practice his Roman Catholicism freely in Maryland, he left Ireland in 1688 with a commission of Attorney General to George Calvert, Proprietor of the tolerant colony. Although he lost his position in a retraction of Catholics' rights only a year later, he created a great fortune through an astute marriage and investments in lands.
Parental Devotion
Charles Carroll and his mother enjoyed mutual tenderness and affection, but it was his father's intense love and rigorous discipline that formed his character and gave him the skills and drive to succeed. A brilliant businessman, Carroll of Annapolis expanded his lands and capital and made his son an heir worthy and fit to receive them.
Prepared to Succeed
The youthful portrait at right shows Carroll as a law student in London, before his 1765 return to Maryland. With his wealth, personal charm and political ability he soon joined the social and political elite of Annapolis.
A Brief Marriage
In 1768, "Charley" married his cousin, Mary Darnall. Having borne seven children, "Molly" died at age 33, weakened by laudanum dependency, and heartbroken by the accidental death of her father-in-law two weeks earlier.

7. Charles Carroll of Carrollton
This c. 1847 portrait of Charles Carroll of Carrollton by Michael Laty (after Robert Field) hangs in the Maryland Historical Society Museum in Baltimore, Maryland.
"Charles Carroll of Carrollton was born in Annapolis to Charles Carroll of Annapolis (1702-1782) and his wife, Elizabeth Brooke (1709-1761). After studying civil law at the College of St. Louis Le Grand, Rheims, France, and common law at The Temple, London, he returned to Maryland in 1765. One of the earliest advocates for independence, the wealthy and influential Carroll served as a delegate to the Continental Congress and the Confederation Congress. He was the only Catholic to sign the Declaration of Independence and the last surviving signer, dying at 95 years of age..." — Maryland Historical Society

Microsoft officially releases Surface Pro 4 in New Zealand, declaring war against Apple's iPad Pro in the process.
Microsoft has officially released the Surface Pro 4 in New Zealand, declaring war against Apple's soon to be unveiled iPad Pro in the process.
Billed as the "tablet that replaces your laptop", the device aims to unlock the potential of Windows 10, boasting 30 percent more power than its predecessor, the Surface Pro 3.
Microsoft says the Surface Pro 4 will start from $1,599, but prices for the premium hybrid device vary, reaching as high as $3,999 for 16GB RAM on an Intel Core i7.
Released amidst growing market competition within the hybrid device space, Microsoft will be hoping its much improved Surface range hits the sweet spot with Kiwis, who now also have the option of Apple's new iPad Pro.
With pre-orders starting on November 11, the iPad Pro starts at $1,399 for the 32GB with Wi-Fi model and $1,899 for the Wi-Fi + Cellular 128GB model.
But as revealed at Redmond's Windows 10 launch last month, Microsoft will be hoping the Surface Pro 4 does enough to not only keep current customers happy, but potentially lure the fanboys over to the dark side.
"It's been three years since we launched the first Surface and it's really amazing how far the product family has come in that time," said Panos Panay, Corporate Vice President of Devices, Microsoft, at the time of the unveiling.
"We've seen people embrace the idea of a tablet that can replace your laptop and Surface Pro has become a hit with consumers and business.
"In fact, Surface Pro 4 amassed the fastest adoption rate by businesses of any Surface device to date.
In essence, the Surface Pro 4 follows the same footprint of the Surface Pro 3.
While the height and width are the same, the screen size has increased from 12 inches to 12.3 inches, with the screen in particular making huge strides.
"We created PixelSense technology to light up every one of your senses," Panay explained.
"With Windows 10 and these new Microsoft devices, you are at the centre of magical new experiences," adds Satya Nadella, CEO, Microsoft.
But in answering the big question on the lips of New Zealanders, how does the Surface Pro 4 stack up against the iPad Pro in terms of pricing?

This beautiful antique carved 1-day railroad-style cuckoo clock is crafted by renowned Black Forest cuckoo clock manufacturer 'Hubert Herr'.
Made from wood sourced locally from the Black Forest, Germany, this beautiful traditional railway-style cuckoo clock is a reproduction of the original 'train station' or 'railway-house' cuckoo clocks created around the year 1885. These kinds of clocks traditionally known as the 'Bahnhaeusli' style became famous during this time for their unique design. As the story goes, the Bahnhaeusli design was commissioned in honour of the workers of the Black Forest Railway Line. The railway was built through the very mountainous Black Forest in the 19th Century, under great effort from the workers. To honour them, this clock was built in imitation of one of the 19th century train stations, and was given to the workers for their efforts.
Made of mahogany sourced locally from the Black Forest and adorned with an array of graceful maple leaves and tiny dancers who animate during the melody (either "Edelweiss" or "Happy wanderer"), this 1-day movement carved cuckoo clock is perfect for adding some rustic charm to any living room, hallway or study.
A Swiss-made music box that alternates between the songs "Edelweiss" and "Happy wanderer".
Locally sourced mahogany wood, brass rack-strike clock mechanism, solid cast-iron weights.
Chime: Cuckoo call once every half-hour and then the full chime each hour for the number of hours (unless sound is switched off).

Developer of Ersatz-11, a software PDP-11 emulator for MS-DOS, Windows, Linux, OS/2, and bare-metal PCs giving emulation speed far faster than the PDP-11/93. The free demo version may be used for 30-day commercial evaluation, or unlimited personal/hobby use. Information about commercial versions is available here. Take a live RSX11M+ V4.6 system for a test drive here.
Ersatz-11 emulates an entire PDP-11 system in software while running on low-cost PC hardware. It outperforms all of the hardware PDP-11 replacements on the market, outstripping them by a particularly wide margin in disk-intensive applications. Hardware PDP-11 replacements that use a Q-bus, Unibus, or ISA bus for I/O can't come close to Ersatz-11's disk performance because they are limited to the speed of the I/O bus for all disk transfers, regardless of actual disk (or disk cache) speed. Ersatz-11 avoids this bottleneck since it uses the PC's main memory and takes advantage of the tight disk-to-memory coupling in modern PCs.
Ersatz-11 is by far the least expensive PDP-11 replacement product on the market. It quickly pays for itself in reduced maintenance, power, and climate control costs. Since its CPU is powered by the PC's processor and not a special-purpose processor card, there's no expensive custom hardware to maintain, and future upgrades to the PC's processor will make its PDP-11 emulation even faster.
Orders for Ersatz-11 are usually shipped out the same day.
A very wide range of PDP-11 disk devices may be emulated using several forms of physical media. Click here for information.
Similarly, a variety of PDP-11 tape devices are supported. Click here for a list.
E11 emulates RS232 and 20 mA serial ports and multiplexors using external ports and/or emulated VT100 sessions. Click here for details.
The efficient Ethernet subsystem allows DECnet, LAT, TCP/IP, or other protocols to work through a regular PC Ethernet card, with higher throughput than the original PDP-11 ports. Click here for more information.
VT11, VT30, and Terak 8510/a graphics displays are emulated in all but the Linux version of E11.
The "full" versions of E11 include support for Q-bus and Unibus adapters, so that real hardware may be attached to the virtual PDP-11. Click here for information.
E11 also supports digital I/O devices, graphics devices, and programmable clocks, as well as dynamically installable plug-ins which allow custom or user-written device emulations to be added to E11 at runtime. Click here for information.

What happens to my AppleCare if I bring over my phone?
AppleCare moves with your device. Your AppleCare agreement should remain active if you bring your phone.
What should I do if I have a hardware problem with my phone?
If you have an AppleCare agreement, please refer to the terms and conditions of your agreement. Visiting an Apple Store may be best to help you troubleshoot your issue under your AppleCare agreement.
For all other phones, please refer to your manufacturer's warranty terms and conditions.
Can I buy a used phone and bring it to Boost Mobile?
Please use caution when purchasing a used phone from an unknown source as there is no guarantee that it is unlocked or not stolen. Locked or previously lost/stolen phones will not be eligible for this program.
Can I bring a Virgin phone and activate it on Boost Mobile service?
No. Only non-Sprint, non-Virgin phones are potentially eligible.
Why isn't my phone eligible?
Unlocking your phone will not necessarily make it interoperable with Boost Mobile service.
A device designed for one network is not compatible with another network merely by unlocking it as there are other checks that would block it from eligibility (such as if the device was previously reported lost or stolen).
Due to this limitation, some devices aren't eligible.
Should I factory reset my phone before activating it with Boost Mobile?
It is strongly recommended that your phone be factory reset prior to completing the activation and provisioning with the Boost Mobile network. This ensures that all previous wireless carrier network settings are completely removed.
Will all my phone features and services work when I bring my phone?
Features and network experience may vary based on original device carrier.
Not all services may work including International Roaming, Mobile Hotspot, MMS (multi-media text messages), some browsers, or eCare (native account management applications).
For Apple devices domestic roaming may not be available.
What is domestic unlocking? Will my phone need to be unlocked and will it affect my network settings?
Your old carrier will have to domestically unlock your phone before you can bring it to Boost Mobile.
A domestic SIM unlock allows you to insert the universal SIM card into your device and attempt to activate it on the Sprint network. Unlocking your device will not necessarily make it interoperable with the Sprint network. In other words, a device designed for one network is not compatible with another network merely by unlocking it. Additionally, unlocking a device may enable some functionality of the device but not all (e.g. an unlocked device may support voice services but data services may not work or may be limited when activated on the Sprint network). Visit a Boost Mobile store to check your device's compatibility.
Why do you need my phone's IMEI number?
The International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) number is a 15-digit serial number that identifies your wireless phone. It is important to have the correct IMEI number for your phone registered with Boost Mobile to ensure that your device can be activated on our network.
What plans are available when I bring my own phone?
Any current monthly Boost Mobile prepaid plan is available.
How much are SIM Kits and is there a reactivation fee?
SIM Kits retail for $10 + tax.
There is no reactivation fee.
Where can I get a SIM card and activate my phone?
To buy a SIM card kit, visit a Boost Mobile store and they will install and activate your phone.
Our Customer Care agents will not be able to sell you a SIM kit or activate the device at this time. Also, SIM cards are not available at boosmobile.com yet.

Former Acting SG Neal Katyal Shares Stories at UChicago Law
January 4, 2019 | Member News
Neal Katyal of Hogan Lovells US LLP recently gave a talk at the University of Chicago Law School about what it means to be a lawyer and why working in law is a "personal calling."
Mr. Katyal served as the Acting US Solicitor General from May 2010 until June 2011. He has argued before the U.S. Supreme Court 37 times, more than any other minority attorney in history, a record previously held by Thurgood Marshall. He argued the "travel ban" case on behalf of the State of Hawaii against President Trump, and more than a decade earlier he successfully challenged the policy of military tribunals at Guantanamo Bay Naval Station, representing Osama bin Laden's chauffeur in Hamdan v. Rumsfeld.
Mr. Katyal shared these stories and others with students, as well as insight into his personal beliefs that led him to work in law.

Emma Stone understands your frustration that she is not part-Asian

Emma Stone in Aloha, acting part-Asian
Cameron Crowe has weathered quite a bit of criticism for Aloha, his most recent film about men being the best men they can be when women drop everything to help them do so. However, most of the attention revolved around Crowe's casting of Emma Stone as Allison Ng, a character of Hawaiian and Asian heritage. Given that Stone is almost the same shade of pale as a whiteboard (or "Stoneboard," as they've begun calling the classroom accessories), many felt this was part of the long Hollywood tradition of whitewashing.
Crowe actually ended up offering an apology, saying that his real-life inspiration for the character resulted in a casting choice that many took as misguided. (Yes, it's the "sorry if you were offended" kind of apology, but he seemed genuinely thoughtful, and understood why people were upset.) And now, Emma Stone herself has weighed in on the controversy. In a new interview with News.com.au, the actress acknowledges being cast as a part-Asian might not have been the best idea. "I've become the butt of many jokes," she says, because she's Emma Stone, and being sensible and good-natured about things is hardwired into her non-Asian DNA.
I've learned on a macro level about the insane history of whitewashing in Hollywood and how prevalent the problem truly is. It's ignited a conversation that's very important.
She also defended her director, pointing out the character wasn't supposed to look Asian, implication being that it wasn't a bad casting choice so much as a bad idea to begin with. But Emma Stone is too nice to come right out and say that, so she'll just point out how the role was written, and then let you think it.
She also discussed another issue Hollywood might want to take a closer look at, namely the casting an older man and a woman half his age as love interests. Again, Stone didn't mince words about the issue, because then she wouldn't be Emma Stone. (She'd be Bono.)
It's rampant in Hollywood and it's definitely been that way for a long time, both culturally and in movies…when I did Magic In The Moonlight Colin Firth and I talked about the gap which was huge, absolutely, because he was born the same year as my dad. There's a lot of conversation about how we want to see people represented on screen and what we need to change as a business to reflect culture in a clearer way and not in an idealised way. There are some flaws in the system. My eyes have been opened in many ways this year.
Setting aside the worrying possibility that Emma Stone is capable of having even wider eyes than she already possesses, this all seems like a refreshing and honest acknowledgment of the myriad ways the film industry is still mired in the past, clinging to outdated and stupid uses of race, gender, and age. The TL;DR version of her comments is basically "Hollywood is fucked up." Emma Stone, you are free to start using our summary of your thoughts, should you care to.

In Bunker Archeology, urban philosopher and cultural theorist Paul Virilio turns his attention--and camera--to the ominous yet strangely compelling German bunkers from WW II that lie abandoned on the coast of France. These ghostly reminders of destruction and oppression prompt Virilio to consider the nature of war and existence, in relation to both the Second World War and contemporary times.
This is the first English-language translation of the French edition published in 1975 to accompany the exhibition of Paul Virilio's photographs at the Pompidou Center. The author's haunting photographs are accompanied by his analysis of the architecture of war in both philosophical and concrete terms. Virilio discusses fortresses and military space in general and the bunkers themselves, including facsimiles of original military maps and extracts from Hitler's "Directives of War." He also examines the role of Albert Speer, Hitler's architect, in the rise of the Third Reich.
Paul Virilio is a renowned urbanist, political theorist, and art critic.

Naomi Campbell shuts down questions over relationship with Liam Payne on chat show
Naomi Campbell refused to discuss her love life when quizzed on romance rumours involving her and One Direction star Liam Payne on a chat show.
The British supermodel gave nothing away when asked about her romances with Liam and Drake during an appearance on British chat show The Jonathan Ross Show.
During the interview, which airs on British TV on Saturday (09Mar19), chat show host Jonathan asked the 48-year-old about her love life, but she refused to give anything away.
"There have been a lot of headlines recently connecting you to Mr Liam Payne," he asked.
"And? I never discuss my personal life. Another name?" Naomi coyly responded.
"Drake? You got quite close to Drake?" he then tried, following reports that Naomi was flirting with the Hotline Bling rapper while attending JAY-Z and Beyonce's annual Gold Oscar party at Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles last month.
"I never discuss my personal life. I mean, it's crazy it's like one day it's one person, the next day it's another. Who is tomorrow? That's what I want to know… For me I laugh. The stories are incredible, it's humorous… I just get on with my life," she said.
Jonathan's quizzing of the model comes days after she cut an interview short after she was questioned about 25-year-old Liam, who she has reportedly been dating since the new year.
Both attended the WE Day charity youth event at London's SSE Arena, Wembley, on Wednesday, arriving on the red carpet separately. But Naomi quickly ended an interview when she was asked about Liam.
The chat show host didn't let up on the personal questions, asking if Naomi is single "for a friend".
"I don't want any blind dates, thank you!" she laughed.
Later in the interview, Naomi also discussed being described as a "diva" alongside her fellow guest, reality star Gemma Collins.
"I don't like that word. Never have. It just gives the wrong perception," she said.
While Gemma urged the Brit to look at it more positively.
"I embrace it, I'm all for it… We should celebrate ourselves, Naomi… I am so honoured to be sitting here next to you, I'm just so not cool right now… You are my Queen, Naomi," she smiled.

Michael Fox is KIROtv.com's Emmy-award winning Web Videographer & Producer. He's been working at KIRO 7 studios on the corner of 3rd and Broad in Seattle for the last six years.
1) Network, network, network. Go job shadow, ask questions, and LISTEN to the answers. If someone has a job you could see yourself doing, set up an informational interview, pick their brain. And when you're done, always send a follow-up "Thank you." It will impress.
2) Learn to do as much as you can. Think you're a good shooter? Learn how to edit. Don't know much about content management systems, get some practice. The more skills you can bring to the table when interviewing the better. More and more companies are looking for people who can operate as a "one man band." They want people who can shoot, edit, write, produce and then post online.
Besides tips, Fox had some answers for any new media journalist grappling with issuezs of the day.
How do you juggle the desire to inform web consumers with the need to promote the news?
The stories that I cover for KIROtv.com are typically non-news stories. So rarely do I find myself in a position that I am directly promoting the news. I am doing feature stories about the strange, the quirky, and the entertaining things going on in Seattle. My goal is to provide an alternate source of content for people coming to our website for their news.
Does any jump in KIRO 7's ratings reflect on web content providers like you?
The hope is always that the website will help supplement the newscast and vice versa. We live in a media world with so many different platforms at our fingertips to disseminate information. In that way the goals is always to cross-promote each other. When the KIRO team has created content that engaged and informed the audience, this translates to us having good content on the website. But again, I am very separate from news; I cover completely different stories and engage our viewers in completely different ways.
How is success measured on a local TV news website?
There are many metrics used to measure success at KIROtv.com. Of course page views are important – when page views are good, that means people are clicking on our content and engaging with our website. But we also strive to keep people on our website for extended periods of time because then we hope they are finding different pockets of content that will likely get them coming back in the future. Of course being a TV station, video views are huge as well. Video views equal happy faces in the KIRO 7 newsroom.
And here's a link to a video Fox did supplementing a ratings piece on KIRO 7 TV asking the question, "How high is too high?" Michael says it's a good example of how the web and TV news cross promote. Fox says, both TV and the "out take" video Fox shot were picked up by Reddit and were hugely successful.

Margaret Buechner (May 27, 1922 – June 8, 1998) was a German-born American composer.

Born in Hanover, she emigrated to the United States in 1951 and became an American citizen in 1961. Her works include the ballets Phantomgreen and Elizabeth, along with tone poems The Old Swedes Church and Erlkönig (based on the Goethe poem). Other major works are two related to her adopted country: Liberty Bell for chorus and orchestra, which incorporates a 1959 recording of the actual bell by Columbia Records, and the "symphonic trilogy" The American Civil War. She died in Midland, Michigan, at the age of 76.

Q: Android: fixed button in each view Is there a way to make a button fix in the whole application views? I mean instead of adding the button to every xml file and code it.
Thank you.

A: You can keep your button xml code a different xml file. And to every other activity xml layout you can use the xml tag include like
<LinearLayout android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent">
    <include layout="@layout/okcancelbar_button"/>
</LinearLayout>

Or like jack said, create a base activity that creates the buttons and the rest of the activities can extend from it.

A: you can create a custom activity in which you create one time button and every activity you will call, extended to your custom activity will have that button

Game of the Week #477
After Nakamura's dominant performance at the Saint Louis Rapid and Blitz in Saint Louis, it's now Caruana's turn to show at the Sinquefield Cup (which also takes place in Saint Louis) why he has been the world's number two for several years now and currently is the strongest American in classical chess.
Wesley So has also been very successful lately, so a tense fight for first place is to be expected. Our Game of the Week is the model game that Caruana won in the first round against Sam Shankland, with a convincing strategy and pretty tactics.
Warm-up question: What would you play here with White?
Practical Chess Strategy: The Bishop
When it comes to strategy, one of the key things that chess professionals understand much better than amateur players is the role of the bishop which is the key theme on this video course.
This week's show
The Modern Pirc
The Modern Pirc is actually a mixture of the Caro-Kann and the Pirc. In many lines Black combines the ideas of the classical Pirc in which the fianchettoed bishop is important with the Caro-Kann idea to fight for the center with c6-d5.
