模倣子 Memetic Destitution and Violence
Index of Memetic Materials
What is Memetic Destituion?
Memetic destitution (2) is the lack of memetic inventory sufficent to engage in a "satisfactory" manner with the prevailing memetic system (or ideology). We assume (as does Slavoj Zizek) that this leads to outbursts of violence.
How does Memetic Desolation lead to Violence?
What is the mechanism that links these two together? What is the lack of the ability to enact memes, either immunomemes in response to "mainstream memes" or the ability to evince a memetic or even immunomemetic response in the mainstream cohort?
Is there a concept of pent-up memetic energy? Or a starvation effect to do with memetic reward, perhaps related to the concept of residual memetic debt? Theft, physical violence against the person, vandalism, striking or other forms of failure to work at jobs, etc. could all be expressions of this memetic destitution? Is there some kind of "memetic threshold" or "minimum rate" or "minimum reward level" after which violence ensues. This may be problematic (see Tokyo resident example below).
Again, why?
Can we say that the ability to communicate memetically is our human way of diverting violent tendencies? Can this be a general principle and the basis for a theory of violence from the level of the individual to the international, e.g., war and genocide?
I am very much intrigued by Slavoj Zizek's assertion that alienation leads to violence (1). This seems like a very memetic statement, one that could be elucidated in terms of macro-memetic theory.
Oppression v. Alienation
It's worth noting that alienation, (due to memetic destitution) and oppression are two separate things. For example, an oppressed minority in the United States (they have those, in case you didn't know) may in fact have many, many memes and MIAOs with which to interact with mainstream culture. The nature of these may be worth exploring. Gays, Asian-Americans, African-Americans, Hispanic Americans, lesbians, and transexuals, perhaps in that order, are oppressed by stereotypes, among many other things, but such stereotypes could be said to be MIAOs with many memes attached, and so we can see how many oppressed minorities have more memes, i.e., a larger memetic inventory with which to interact with the mainstream cohort than even members of the mainstream cohort themselves have.
Native Americans, on the other hand, may be both alienated (suffer from memetic destitution) and oppression. We might want to say that in spite of that, there has been little or no resort to violence (3).
An example with which I'm familiar is the American or British expatriate businessman living in Tokyo, Japan. He may not know any Japanese, have no knowledge of Japanese culture, and may live in a foreigner-oriented Homat apartment ("moon colony" as a friend of mine once described them) and have WoWow TV channels providing foreign media. This person has absolutely no way to interact memetically with almost all the people around him, nor they with him, and yet he may be making a quarter million dollar salary and living very comfortably indeed.
In other words, his needs are all met, even though he is completely alienated (has zero locally-useful memetic inventory).
Another example might be a severely disabled person who is unable to speak, or move, or perhaps blind or deaf and thus the use of a number, perhaps a great number, of memes are denied her. She may, however, live in a supportive environment with helpful friends, relatives, or other caregivers to meet her needs as they come up. Again, alienation without oppression.
On the other hand, an oppressed minority may have serious problems obtaining work (and this could be exacerbated by language issues, which is another memetic destitution, by the way), getting full access to resources, finding suitable housing, getting education for himself or his children, and so on, due to the actions or inactions of the majority.
How does this lead to violence? Or how may violence be prevented?
As in the case of the expatriate alien or the well-seen-after disabled person (4), memetic destitution and oppression are distinct. Is this a rare set of circumstances, however (5)? We must remind ourselves that memetic systems are Darwinian in nature, and that they do not exist for the purpose of fulfilling the material or spiritual needs of individual human beings or human society as a whole. In other words, memeplexes please themselves. People are content, it seems, to suffer no small amount of privation (7) so long as they get some level of memetic reward ("orgasm"), and these rewards may even take the form of oppressive memes, e.g., racism or sexism, being enacted on them.
However, it may be true that once a people are truly reduced to the point that their survival is threatened (and how this is perceived is a telling question), they resort to violence (13). More research required here.
So, perhaps more interesting than the question of how memetic destitution leads to violence (8) is the question of how the opposite of memetic destitution (9), could prevent violence by providing (creating, engineering) a "sufficiently rich" (12) memetic system acting within an at-risk community and allowing interaction (interface memes) with the majority memespace and cohort.
This all points to a great deal more research needing to be done.
(1) The Pervert's Guide to Ideology, see the London Riots
(2) There may be a better term, but I actually like this one.
(3) There has been considerable violence, however, but for the most part directed from the outside (the colonizing British and Americans) against the natives, e.g., the ongoing DAPL protests by the Sioux (Dakota, actually pan-tribal, including peoples outside of North America), the AIM protests of the 1970s, and of course the "Indian Wars" of the 18th and 19th Centuries. Theoretically, this genocide, this loss of life and destruction of culture could've been avoided by the French approach in North America, i.e., intermarriage and cooperation, leading to exchange of language and development of a novel culture, i.e., creation of large numbers of memes and MIAOs permitting wholesale interaction/participation and avoiding resort to violence.
(4) It's worth mentioning that in the 1970s and before in the US, prior to ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act), the picture was not pretty, and the access by the disabled to employment, services, resources, and venues was severely impaired.
(5) Women (in the US, Japan, and possibly elsewhere) may be, at certain points in history, at least, an interesting example. Oppression of women seems to be the rule rather than the exception, women are often alienated, e.g., denied the vote (6), denied a public forum in more pernicious and subtle "unofficial" ways, denied full access to employment. Yet in other ways, the "system" recognizes, at some levels at least, that women are "more important" and gives them a number of advantages, some of them ex lege, e.g., not being legally obliged/forced to to serve in the army, mandated "maternity leave" ("paternity leave" is much rarer and restricted), "sei-ri-bi" 生理日 or "menstruation holidays", and then less officially, easier access to the public dole (welfare), and highly favorable treatment in divorces and indeed all court cases in general. Women are 50% of the population yet only 10% (or less) of the prison population. There is only one "men's shelter" in the US (near San Diego?) while there are thousands exclusively for women. Women supposedly tend to work lower-paying jobs (the reality of which is a point of dispute and interpretation), but women are also free of the shaming associated with working a low-status job, or with staying at home (even if they are not mothers), whereas men are highly shamed for not "bettering themselves" or working as hard as possible at a high-paying, high-status job. Staying home (to look after the kids or do art or other non-paying activity) is very much looked at askance when men do it. It may no longer be true in the post-Reagan era, but George Orwell observed in Down and Out in Paris and London that only a tiny fraction of hobos are women. While it's absolutely true that women have been highly oppressed in the US, in terms of denial of free access, etc., and that huge effort has been spent toward changing that and much remains to be done, it's impossible to seriously deny that this is such a thing as female privilege. What this all means for the concept of memetic destitution and it's connection to violence remains to be seen.
(6) Swiss women got the Federal vote in 1971, and in some cantons, such as Appenzel, the local vote was even later (I understand women have the vote in Appenzel canton now).
(7) I see the "hipster movement" or "hipster culture" and even the "nerd counterculture" in the US as an interesting example of this, and possibly an example of a memetic system forming/adapting to match the resources available and thereby actually prevent violent outbursts. We see a subculture where it's "cool" to be poor, work low-status, low-paying schlubby jobs with bad hours (so long as they are the "right" sort of jobs), wear thrift store clothing, and so forth, so long as one enacts the memes of the given culture, e.g., the manner of speaking, the "right" ratty clothing, watches the right animes, often smoking tobacco (in an affected "gourmet/connoisseur" manner), play "role-playing games" (RPGs) which last hours and involve mainly talking and rolling dice and often very little other matierals, and so forth. In other words, living a low-cost lifestyle garners memetic rewards, since a memetically very complex culture is built around it, and thus avoids a feeling of oppression and changes what it means to get one's needs met.
(8) possibly as simple a relationship that people perceive that they are being deprived to the point of actually dying, and so rise up to get the basic resources (food, housing, clothing, etc.) they need.
(9) which would be a higher level of memetic inurement, a higher number of memes and MIAOs created for interaction within one's own group (10), and with the greater majority cohort. In other words, efforts to increase memetic inclusion, as opposed to actually providing resources or even any effort to reduce any real oppression.(11)
(10) which we see with communities of oppressed people all the time.
(11) this could form a basis for discussing the problem of "assimilationism", e.g., assimilated Jews, Native Americans, and perhaps even the efforts of such historical figures as Cardinal Richelieu and Spain's Franco to impose a "national language", as opposed to promoting "diversity".
(12) what this could possibly mean is a topic for further research and discussion. This could lead to an elucidation of a "memetic destitution threshold" or suchlike which could lead us to the application of memetic engineering principles to actually design violence out of society, without actually having to directly consider things like redistribution of resources or (immediate) modification of statues.
(13) The horrible example of Nazi Germany's genocide of the Jews (and probably also the United States' genocide of the Native Americans), may represent a gradual "dialing up" of the oppression, all the while increasing the memetic complexity (14) , until finally large numbers of people were, of their own will, stripping themselves naked, neatly piling up their clothing (so it could be given to the next crop of victims), and walking right in front of firing squads and into mass gas chambers, and even helping to bury the people killed right before them in mass graves before walking into oblivion themselves. Somehow accepting this mass murder seems to have afforded a memetic reward, driving one to continue it, even up to the very moment of one's own extermination. It might be argued that these horrors were the product of careful memetic engineering as much as anything else.
(14) through gradually but steadily increased bureaucratic means, such as identity cards (or "treaties"), restriction of employment (or hunting grounds), moving to special neighborhoods and ghettos, executions of some members for petty violations of regulations (smuggling, curfews, religious practices (e.g., the "ghost dance"), etc.), and finally deportation to concentration camps (reservations), often outside the country (the unincorporated West of the Mississippi), and so forth such that each new level of deprivation was not only just slightly less than the previous one, it was also accompanied, perhaps more importantly, with a mass of new memes and MIAOs to make the new oppression "acceptable" since it afforded memetic rewards.

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-04-27/tokyo-water-radiation-falls-to-zero-for-first-time-since-crisis.html
Radiation readings at Japan's Fukushima Dai-Ichi station rose to the highest since an earthquake and tsunami knocked out cooling systems, impeding efforts to contain the worst nuclear crisis since Chernobyl.
Two robots sent into the reactor No. 1 building at the plant yesterday took readings as high as 1,120 millisierverts of radiation per hour, Junichi Matsumoto, a general manager at Tokyo Electric Power Co., said today. That's more than four times the annual dose permitted to nuclear workers at the stricken plant.
Radiation from the station, where four of six reactors have been damaged by explosions, has forced the evacuation of tens of thousands of people and contaminated farmland and drinking water. A plan to flood the containment vessel of reactor No. 1 with more water to speed up emergency cooling efforts announced yesterday by the utility known as Tepco may not be possible now.
"Tepco must figure out the source of high radiation," said Hironobu Unesaki, a nuclear engineering professor at Kyoto University. "If it's from contaminated water leaking from inside the reactor, Tepco's so-called water tomb may be jeopardized because flooding the containment vessel will result in more radiation in the building."

Tepco Slows Water Injection at Fukushima Reactor to Curb Risk of Explosion
Quote: Electric Power Co. slowed the pace of water injection into one of the six reactors at its crippled Fukushima Dai-Ichi nuclear station after a drop in pressure and temperature increased the risk of an explosion.
"When the pressure inside the reactor containment vessel falls below that of the atmosphere, air could enter through gaps and mix with hydrogen and cause an explosion," Kazuhiko Kudo, a research professor of nuclear engineering at Kyushu University, said by telephone today.

"If the full data set is not immediately released, the government can rightly be accused of attempting to cover up the radiation threat posed by the disaster. This would severely undermine regulators' credibility."

Unsafe at Any Dose
Quote: Still, physicists talk convincingly about “permissible doses” of radiation. They consistently ignore internal emitters — radioactive elements from nuclear power plants or weapons tests that are ingested or inhaled into the body, giving very high doses to small volumes of cells. They focus instead on generally less harmful external radiation from sources outside the body, whether from isotopes emitted from nuclear power plants, medical X-rays, cosmic radiation or background radiation that is naturally present in our environment.

30 years ago I was breastfeeding my daughter (around a month old). I had to have a lung scan, as they thought I had an embolism. They shot a needle of radoactive dye in me, did the scan, and told me I could not breastfeed my daughter for a week! I was considered radioactive enough that they wanted me to handle her as little as possible, and have help caring for and holing her. A full week from ONE test.

Belated release of radiation forecast data
The Japanese government is about to begin releasing data projecting the spread of radiation from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant that it initially withheld for fear of causing panic.
The data in question is in a computer system called SPEEDI that predicts the spread of radioactive substances based on actual radiation measurements at various locations and weather conditions.
A joint task force of the government and Tokyo Electric Power Company says about 5,000 undisclosed bits of data will be released from Tuesday.
The information will be carried on the websites of the science ministry, the Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency, and the Nuclear Safety Commission.
The secretary-general of the joint task force and prime the minister's advisor, Goshi Hosono, apologized for the delay in releasing the data.
Hosono said the task force withheld the information because some data were based on overly rigorous assumptions and feared it may trigger panic.

Drumbeat of Nuclear Fallout Fear Doesn't Resound With Experts
The nuclear disaster in Japan has sent waves of radiation and dread around the globe, prompting so many people to buy radiation detectors and potassium iodide to fend off thyroid cancer that supplies quickly sold out.
The fear is unwarranted, experts say. People in Japan near the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant may have reason to worry about the consequences of radiation leaks, scientists say, and some reactor workers, in particular, may suffer illness. But outside of Japan, the increase is tiny, compared with numerous other sources of radiation, past and present.
Experts say that humans are bombarded by so much radiation from so many other sources, including many natural ones, that the uptick from Japan disappears as a cause of concern {when} the big picture is considered...
>>>...<<<
...In the world's oceans, thousands of decomposing drums of radioactive waste pose bigger dangers than the relatively small amounts of radioactive water released from the Fukushima Daiichi plant...
...During the cold war, for example, more than 500 {nuclear} detonations pumped the global atmosphere full of deadly radioactive materials, some of which are still emitting radiation....
...Figures from the United Nations put the total bomb radiation from decades of atmospheric testing at almost 70 billion curies. By contrast, the 1986 accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant released about 100 million curies of the most dangerous materials.
As for Fukushima Daiichi, Japanese officials said on April 12 that the reactor complex had released about 10 million curies. In 1979, the reactor accident at Three Mile Island released about 50 curies into the environment...
...Additionally, many experts say, the threat to the Japanese people is probably low because — unlike the radioactive fallout from the cold war and the Chernobyl accident — most of the radiation is believed to have blown out to sea on the prevailing winds...
...But people, rather than sea creatures, are by far the biggest recipients of artificial radiation, and most of the exposure is intentional. According to the United Nations reports, from1988 to 2008, the number of examinations worldwide in diagnostic radiology more than doubled, to 3.1 billion from 1.4 billion.
Sorry about the butcher job on this article, but I just had so many WTF!?- moments reading it, I couldn't stop snipping. Do read the whole thing if you can.

Funeral home owners sentenced after decomposing body found
by: AP News
SPARTANBURG, S.C. (AP) – The former co-owners of a South Carolina funeral home have been sentenced to a year's probation in connection with a decomposed body that was in a locked storage room for three years.
The Post and Courier reports that Lawrence Robert Meadows and Roderick Mitchell Cummings owned the now-defunct First Family Funeral Home in Spartanburg.
Each was charged with desecration of human remains.
Cummings pleaded guilty. Meadows pleaded no contest, which registers as a conviction.
They were accused of failing to properly care for the body of 63-year-old Mary Alice Pitts Moore.

Faculty Profiles »
Eiji Miura Appointed Opera Intensive Managing Director
Vocal pedagogist, singer, performer, and educator Eiji Miura has been appointed managing director of the Boston Conservatory Opera Intensive at Berklee's campus in Valencia, Spain. Miura, a graduate of the Conservatory's vocal pedagogy program, joined its faculty in 2018. Previously, he served on the voice faculties of the New England Conservatory Preparatory School, Clark University, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
"It's with great excitement that we welcome Eiji Miura to the Berklee Valencia campus," said María M. Iturriaga, executive director of the Valencia campus. "Miura's experience on stage, as well as his work on voice teaching methods, will bring a new approach to the opera program."
Miura is a versatile artist, equally comfortable on the operatic stage as he is interpreting the more intimate genre of art song. His 2019 season included several engagements with Odyssey Opera, the Boston Modern Orchestra Project, and cathedral residencies in England. He also sang the role of Goro in the world's first Japanese-English bilingual production of Puccini's Madama Butterfly with Pacific Opera Project and Opera in the Heights.
Miura is a strong proponent of diversity, equity, and inclusion, and this experience led him to begin investigating issues surrounding culturally appropriative themes and practices in the Western classical tradition. Subsequently, he was asked to participate in a panel discussion for OPERA America in which he offered several strategies for approaching shows with problematic source material.
In addition to his Master of Music in vocal pedagogy, Miura holds a Master of Science in communications and a double Bachelor of Arts in Asian studies and vocal performance from Clark University. He is also a member of the National Association of Teachers of Singing (NATS), and currently serves as secretary of the board of directors for the Boston chapter of NATS.
The Boston Conservatory Opera Intensive at Valencia is a unique program that offers talented singers the opportunity to hone their technical skills with world-class faculty, gain valuable performance experience in a variety of settings, learn how to build and maintain a career in opera, and connect with industry professionals.
Miura took up his new post in February 2020.

Lost Tribes Of The Moon's debut album features three main compositions that showcase a vast and dense variety of influences including but not limited to forms of heavy metal, prog rock and folk. Long and indulgent song lengths give these songs the proper vehicle to fully tell each story within. A few supplemental tracks surround the beginning, middle, and end of this album to help tie the atmosphere of this musical universe together, and which contains expanded instrumentation and sounds that open the doors even further into this auditory journey that is Lost Tribes Of The Moon.
Though citing influences ranging from 70's hard rock, prog rock, doom, black metal, NWOBHM, folk, and ambient/experimental, "metal" replete with dynamics, creativity, and passion is the best descriptor of the Lost Tribes Of The Moon sound.

How To Tell If We Are In A Stock Market Bubble
June 3, 2011 12:24pm by
Joseph Saluzzi (jsaluzzi-at-ThemisTrading.com) and Sal L. Arnuk (sarnuk-at-ThemisTrading.com) are co-heads of the equity trading desk at Themis Trading LLC (www.themistrading.com), an independent, no conflict agency brokerage firm specializing in trading listed and OTC equities for institutions. Prior to founding Themis, Sal and Joe worked for more than 10 years at Instinet Corporation, pioneers in the field of electronic trading, and at Morgan Stanley.
Bubble. The word keeps popping up a lot lately in the financial markets. After the internet bubble in the late nineties and the more recent housing bubble, investors are constantly trying to identify bubbles before they happen and make sure they do not get caught up in them when they bust. The classic 19th century book "Extraordinary Popular Delusions & the Madness of Crowds"
by Charles Mackay details the mentality of how bubbles are formed:
"We find that whole communities suddenly fix their minds upon one object, and go mad in its pursuit; that millions of people become simultaneously impressed with one delusion, and run after it, till their attention is caught by some new folly more captivating than the first. Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, and one by one."
Today, we are faced with a second wave of possible Internet bubbles. The recent sharp rise in the IPO LinkedIn has caused some to say that we are already in another bubble. Yesterday, we got news that Groupon has filed for an IPO even though the company has not turned a profit yet (no doubt they felt the timing was right after the success of LinkedIn). The WSJ has a headline today that reads "Groupon to Gauge Limits of IPO Mania". But how do we really know if this is a bubble? Most bubbles pop and leave a tremendous amount of wreckage in their path before they are even identified.
Three academics think they have the answer to identifying bubbles. Professors Jarrow, Protter and Kchia have recently written a paper titled "Is there a bubble in LinkedIn's stock price?" http://arxiv.org/abs/1105.5717 You may remember Professors Jarrow and Protter also from their other recently released paper "A Dysfunctional Role of High Frequency Trading in Electronic Markets" Read Paper Here where they argued "high frequency traders can create a mispricing that they unknowingly exploit to the disadvantage of ordinary investors". We liked that paper alot.
In their latest paper, the Professors have developed a "procedure based on a sophisticated mathematical model for detecting asset price bubbles in real time." They chose to test their model on LinkedIn stock and guess what, they found that LinkedIn is in a price bubble. Their paper is very interesting but we must admit the math calculations which they use to prove their model are way above our pay grade. We encourage any of you math wizards out there to check out the paper.
Now, let's put that model to work on Groupon as soon as it comes public.
Spread the wealth.

As far as I can remember I always had some wool or some kind of fabric at my fingertips. I knitted and crocheted, I embroidered and sewed, and I created my own patterns and designs. From time to time I took courses to enhance my skills. My work, however, remained within the circle of family and friends. Because of a demanding day job as an accountant I could only enjoy crafting as a hobby.
On several holidays in Cornwall I made friends with some crafts women and men who encouraged and inspired me to take up my designing and crafting skills and rediscover my neglected artistic side. I bought a vintage quilt and started designing … ending up with my first item, a drawstring bag. We called it a "Treutel" (derived from my nickname). Once started, the ideas for designs kept on coming. I sold my designs not only to family members, friends and colleagues, but also offered my vintage and handmade products in a friend's shop and at several vintage fairs. At a certain point the growing demand for my work and the positive feedback from customers made me decide to give up my day job and work as a self-employed textile designer. We moved from Germany to Cornwall in 2010 and to Wales in 2015.
While still living and working in Germany I had only managed to fill some space at friends' tables at various Vintage Fairs and the Country Living Magazine Fairs. But since November 2010 I had my own table at numerous smaller fairs, and at the CL Spring Fair in 2011 and 2012 I was part of "The Sea Garden" stand. In August 2009 two friends and I organised the first HOMESPUN FAIR in Portscatho, Cornwall. It was such a success that we held a HOMESPUN FAIR three times a year until 2013.
I ran my friend's shop in Cornwall for some years. But after handing it back I took matters into my own hands, was bold and had my own stand at several of the CL Spring and Christmas Fairs and other bigger fairs. At the CL Christmas 2014 in Harrogate I even won the "Editor's Choice Award" for the best stall. Up to now each year I still attend some smaller and bigger fairs. Every time I can't wait to be out there and meet my customers (for more details please see my page "fairs").
Come and find me at my next fair or you can always purchase my products in my online shop.


When business owners evaluate traditional fax machines the decision to purchase usually comes down to which machine offers the right features for the right price.With fax machines varying by only a small margin it can often be challenging to determine which one to invest in.
Log of Sent and Received Faxes – Quite often you will want to review which faxes you have sent and received to review your communications with clients and vendors.Waiting for a phone bill or getting your fax machine to print out a list can be a cumbersome task. With an online fax service you can not only easily track which faxes have been sent and received you can review in digital format.
Instant Notifications – Businesses throughout Australia have to act faster to be competitive.Neither you nor your employees have time to constantly get up to check the machine to see if and what faxes have been received or ensure that your documents were successfully delivered.An online service allows you to use your computer as a fax and be notified (via email or with our eFax Messenger® software) instantly of the status of your fax.
Avoiding Costly Repairs – Even the best fax machines will need to be repaired.A common repair can result in an expense nearly as much as the machine.You can utilize your current computers and printers; no need to invest in a fax machine, saving you costly repairs. With an online service there is nothing to repair!
With the additional benefits of being able to send and receive faxes via email from your mobile phone it's no wonder that more and more business owners are ditching their fax machines for an online service.

challengeType: 2
forumTopicId: 301561
localeTitle: Регистрация новых пользователей
---

## Description

Напомним, что этот проект строится на следующем стартовом проекте на Glitch, или клонированном из GitHub.
Теперь нам нужно разрешить новому пользователю на нашем сайте зарегистрировать учетную запись. На res.render для домашней страницы добавьте новую переменную к переданному объекту- showRegistration: true. При обновлении страницы вы должны увидеть регистрационную форму, которая уже была создана в файле index.pug ! Эта форма настроена на POST на /register поэтому здесь мы должны настроить прием POST и создать объект пользователя в базе данных.
Логика регистрационного маршрута должна выглядеть следующим образом: Регистрация нового пользователя > аутентификация нового пользователя > перенаправление в /profile
Логика шага 1, регистрация нового пользователя, должна быть следующей: Запрос базы данных с помощью команды findOne > если пользователь возвращается, то он существует и перенаправляется обратно на home или если пользователь не определен и не возникает ошибок, то 'insertOne' в базу данных с именем пользователя и паролем и до тех пор, пока не возникнет ошибок, затем вызовите  next  чтобы перейти к Шагу 2, аутентифицируя нового пользователя, для которого мы уже написали логику в нашем POST /login маршруте.

```js
app.route('/register')
  .post((req, res, next) => {
    db.collection('users').findOne({ username: req.body.username }, function(err, user) {
      if (err) {
        next(err);
      } else if (user) {
        res.redirect('/');
      } else {
        db.collection('users').insertOne({
          username: req.body.username,
          password: req.body.password
        },
          (err, doc) => {
            if (err) {
              res.redirect('/');
            } else {
              next(null, user);
            }
          }
        )
      }
    })
  },
    passport.authenticate('local', { failureRedirect: '/' }),
    (req, res, next) => {
      res.redirect('/profile');
    }
  );
```

Detailing the development and operational history of the FS Ventose (F733) Light Multirole Frigate Warship. Entry last updated on 11/9/2018. Authored by Staff Writer. Content ©www.MilitaryFactory.com.
Considered a "light" frigate in the French Navy, FS Ventose (F733) is a part of the Floreal-class of fighting ships. Eight total ships were constructed with six going to the French and two received by the nation of Morocco. The types have been in service since May of 1992 with the group made up of Floreal, Prairial, Nivose, Ventose, Vendemiaire, Germinal, Mohammad V (Morocco) and Hassan II (Morocco). FS Ventose was ordered in 1989 and saw her keel laid down on June 28th, 1991 by Chantiers de l'Atlantique. She was launched on March 14th, 1992 and was officially commissioned for service in the French Navy on May 5th, 1993. She makes her homeport out of Fort de France in Martinique and, as of 2015, remains in active service with the French Fleet.
Modern day frigates are generally designed as multi-role vessels and are used in fleet defense support and Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) actions. Like other modern naval assets, frigates can operate independently or as part of a larger ocean-going surface force. Such versatility provides warplanners with tactical and strategic flexibility when approaching a given campaign and vessels like the Ventose do no fail them in this respect.
As built, Ventose displaces 2,600 tonnes under full load. Her dimensions include a length of 306.8 feet, a beam of 46 feet and a draught of 14.4 feet. Propulsion is provided for through 4 x SEMT Pielstick 6PA6 L280 diesel engines along with 3 x Baudouin 12P15 2SR diesel alternators paired with 3 x Alslthom AA 49L9 alternators. Output is 8,800 horsepower to 2 x shafts with speeds reaching 20 knots and operational ranges out to 15,000 nautical miles.
Her armament suite is led by 2 x Exocet MM38 anti-ship missile launchers. The vessel carries a 100mm CADAM turreted deck gun and close-in defense is through 2 x 20mm Modele F2 series gun installations.
The profile of Ventose sees a noticeably low forecastle design which promotes an unobstructed and raised staging area for the turreted 100mm deck gun system. The bridge superstructure is aft of this and sports an enclosed mainmast structure atop. The Exocet missile launchers are found amidships between the bridge superstructure and a pair of smoke funnels arranged side-by-side. A platform adjacent to the funnels seats a Syracuse II SATCOM system. A helicopter hangar makes up a large portion of the aft superstructure which is protected by one of the 20mm Close-In Weapon Systems (CIWSs) along its roof. The flight deck over the stern can accept a medium-lift naval helicopter (typically an Airbus Helicopters / Eurocopter AS565 "Panther") or similar rotary-wing vehicle. A small quarterdeck is featured aft of the flight deck.
A typical crew complement is eighty-eight with eleven of this total made up by the officer staff and eleven managing the air arm. Onboard are stowage areas Zodiac fast assault boats and other pertinent mission gear. Radar is a collection of systems such as the DRBV-12C ("Mars") air sentry system, the Racal Decca RM1290 navigation radar and the RM1290 landing radar. The Electronic Warfare (EW) suite is of a Thomson-CF design and navigation is aided by an inertial navigation system, a NavStar GPS fit, a Furuno depth measuring system and VHF radio suite.


A graduate of Brown University and Harvard Law School, he met with little success as a lawyer but became one of the more well-known expatriate painters at the turn of the century. At age 29, he left the United States and spend the next decade studying in teaching academies in London, Paris, Dusseldorf, and the Hague. During the 1880s, he settled in Holland and established his reputation as a painter of landscapes, flowers and peasant women, focusing on the effects he could achieve with bright light and shadows. At the Paris Salon of 1887, he won a gold medal for one of his tulip paintings and also won numerous gold medals at other venues. He was voted an Associate of the National Academy of Design in New York and became the only American member of athe Vienna Academy.
George Hitchcock, born in 1850, had high academic expectations and studied at Brown and Harvard Law School before entering Acadamie Julian in Paris. In 1879 he quit his law practice to study painting there. Hitchcock created Impressionistic pictures of brilliantly colored tulip fields in Holland, usually with a Dutch peasant woman in beautiful costuming.
He became known as the "Painter of Sunlight". Hitchcock traveled often, creating halos and auras of light around his subjects. He was elected associate member of the National Academy of Design in 1909. Hitchcock died in 1913.

It is my experience that students who major in environmental studies are passionate about their beliefs and concerns. That could be about protecting important habitats, making sure that people have access to a clean and healthy environment, or doing their best to educate others. I find environmental studies students very interested in putting their education into action.
This depends on the program. One needs to make sure that the interdisciplinary nature of an environmental studies program allows the student to make the connections between issues and perspectives. There is a great difference between the "buffet" approach where students take a wide range of topic courses like policy, sociology, conservation biology, GIS, etc. and curricular opportunities that are designed to support interdisciplinary analysis. Some have said that the "buffet" approach creates ecological illiterates - people that know a little bit about a lot of things but not enough to make a difference. An interdisciplinary focus should provide students with both breadth and depth. With our Community and Environmental Studies program at Colby-Sawyer College we support interdisciplinary study in three ways. First, students are required to have a minor in another field. This provides them with additional depth of study in one area - biology, communications, business, etc. Second, we also require students to complete 5 general areas of study for breadth - ecology, ethics, literature, business and sociology. Finally, in their junior year students work on a year-long community based research project. This is a problem-solving studio in which students are asked to work on a problem or initiative for a local environmental organization. We have analyzed a wetland for a town conservation commission, conducted a natural resources inventory for a national wildlife refuge and are currently conducting a watershed inventory for a lake protective association. Working on the project over a whole academic year gives us the opportunity to examine topics from a variety of perspectives. When we study policy, it is policy that is relevant to the project. When we study natural history, it helps us answer questions we have for the project. Working on projects like this naturally forces us to consider things from an interdisciplinary perspective. Students also complete a project report, which is great way to demonstrate to employers how they have experience with interdisciplinary work. In my discussions with employers I have found that there is a general appreciation for interdisciplinary analysis, but there must be integration.
There is a wide range of jobs available to ES graduates. Our graduates are working as research technicians for companies conducting environmental impact assessments, site managers for national wildlife refuges, and environmental project assistants for consulting firms. Positions are available with for-profit, government and non-governmental groups. I find that the range of companies that are looking for ES graduates is continually expanding. The Environmental Careers Organization has done some great research on who is hiring ES graduates and where the jobs will be in the next decade.
I think there are three ways to get ahead. One is to have great communication skills - oral and written communication. Students need to push themselves to get this. The more confidence one can build the more interested potential employers will be. Students should try to take advantage of as many public speaking experiences as they can. Volunteer to give a report on your research to other students in your major, ask to speak to a college administrator about a campus concern you have, sign up to give a poster presentation at a conference. Next, students should make sure they have a basic understanding of and skills with Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Global Positioning Systems (GPS). Regardless of the focus of your degree you need to be able to talk about GIS and GPS applications. This is one important way to make your resume stand out from others. Finally, students need to do an internship. This demonstrates that you can do a job in your field. It also gives the student the change to test the waters and see if a particular career field is really where they want to be.
Talk to upper class students about what their experiences with the program. Ask program directors to set up opportunities to hear about what other students are doing for their internships or senior research projects. You can also just talk to people in the cafeteria or in the residence hall. Most upper class students are willing to share what they know about the program with new students.

Q: git pull one small commit, fatal: pack has bad object at offset 2715294897: inflate returned 1 fatal: fetch-pack: invalid index-pack output I'm trying to git pull after coming back from the holidays and I'm running into this error:
$git pull
remote: Azure Repos
remote: Found 499 objects to send. (105 ms)
fatal: pack has bad object at offset 2460869627: inflate returned 1
fatal: fetch-pack: invalid index-pack output

According to all the other similar posts I've seen, the problem is related to large files over unstable internet. However, I checked the git log and it seems I'm missing only one commit a972c3de and the contents of this commit is only a 5 line documentation change.
I'm confused on a couple different fronts: why does my pull find 499 objects to send if I'm only pulling one commit? Is there something about the nature of git pull that I'm missing? And how do I fix this issue?

Alan didn't want to think about the small print of the funeral itself so he determined to buy a funeral bond with a few of his retirement financial savings. He knew the funding would grow over time and if he lived another 15 years the bond would cowl all his funeral costs. He was comfortable for his family to assign the bond to a funeral director of their selection on the time of his death. He felt happy that he had sorted out his funeral costs and his family would not have to worry about them.

Kettering Health Teams Up With Cincinnati Bengals
November 30, 2022 ∙ by rbacchus ∙ in Kettering Health
Story by Christina Keresoma
Hearing the word "cancer" brings anyone's world to a stop. Life seems to freeze around as you try to comprehend everything that's about to change.
The cancer journey affects the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. And it requires a community to navigate. That's why at Kettering Health we stand behind our faith-based approach to bring to every cancer patient care that not only heals but also offers hope. Our dedicated cancer specialists treat patients with innovative treatments and a holistic approach, coming alongside patients and their families for every step of the journey. We're no stranger to what it takes to help others fight cancer—and neither are our friends in the NFL.
In 2009, the NFL and the American Cancer Society began a campaign to bring awareness to cancer prevention and the screenings available to spot cancer in its earliest stages: the "Crucial Catch: Intercept Cancer" campaign. The campaign has raised more than $23 million for the American Cancer Society.
The Cincinnati Bengals, of which Kettering Health is the official health care partner, promote the Crucial Catch campaign in several ways. On Thursday, September 29, the Cincinnati Bengals brought team alumni and others to the Kettering Health Cancer Center, located on the campus of Kettering Health Main Campus. There, Bengals legends joined forces with Kettering Health staff to create care packages, sign banners of encouragement, film inspirational video messages, and meet some of the patients.
"As a healthcare organization, Kettering Health is dedicated to supporting the needs of our community, ultimately helping people be their best," said Fred Manchur, then CEO of Kettering Health. "The Bengals are equally committed to their people, their fans, and local residents. This partnership builds on that common purpose and the strengths of both organizations. We are excited to work together to build a healthier community."
The event at the Cancer Center preceded the Bengals' "Ring of Honor" at the Paycor Stadium, where Bengals alumni Willie Anderson and Isaac Curtis were inducted into the Bengals Ring of Honor during the game.


I'm so proud of my friend Kyle who is in town with his play Cranked which got an amazing review in the Toronto Star.
Kyle Cameron is awesome here playing Stan, as he is throughout the whole 45-minute show. He's not afraid to show us the disgusting physical side of his addiction, picking at sores both real and imaginary, while wiping away a cold sweat that never seems to vanish no matter how hard he tries.
His dementia is equally convincing, with some of his hallucinations proving so deeply felt that when we later find out they were false, we're as relieved as we are surprised.
I'm so excited to see it for the first time on Friday night!
