Translated from Scherzo (Diálogo de la Estatua) by Rafael Guizado (1948)
Genre: Serio-comic one-act
The spirit of a late head of state, The Man, looks forward to resting in peace, only to find that he's trapped inside his memorial statue and forced to hear what visitors truly think of him. The harshest criticism comes from the ground he stands on. The Man's sensual and sassy companion, The Earth, goads him into a dialogue examining the reality and consequences of his legacy.

"full of humor and grace, not without sarcasm, full of successes in the composition and style, permeating to the last page of a bitter and at the same time cheerful vision of the Colombian political world. Guizado, as we know, is one of the few major playwrights there are in Colombia. "
Semana, Espejos Politicos 30
The translation, as included in my adaptation of Rafael Guizado's one-act plays Symphony for Six Actors, had a staged reading at Cervantes Theatre, London, in Out of the Wings Festival 2017, directed by Kate O'Connor.
The first production was in Las Vegas, by The Asylum Theatre, in partnership with Out of the Wings, Winchester Dondero Cultural Center, and Nevada Chamber Orchestra, in June 2021. It was directed by Sarah O'Connell, and produced by Sarah O'Connell, Irma Varela, and Ralph Stalter, Jr.

The 10 Most Gorgeous Anime Snow Scenes

redpajama_set_name: RedPajamaCommonCrawl


The land of ABBA has served the world some of the finest in prog-rock delights for many years now, and continue to do so in the 21st century.
The musical output of the Flower Kings is impressive. Since 1995 there have been 6 studio releases (including the current one), two of them being double, and one double live CD. Considering most of the material is written by singer/guitarist Roine Stolt - who has also released two solo albums *and* found the time to record two CDs with prog supergroup Transatlantic - this is pretty amazing.
And one would be forgiven to think that the quality of the music surely must be suffering when the quantity is so high. But listen to The Rainmaker and discover that it isn't so. The Flower Kings are continuously developing their sound, while Stolt's songwriting is still exciting and original. He has taken the best parts of 70s prog rock like Yes, Genesis and King Crimson, and created a modern, melodic rock sound that lifts the spirit and delights the heart.
Noticeable differences from previous Flower Kings albums are a slightly more funky sound and sections that are much heavier than what has until now been typical for the band. Drummer Jamie Salazar, who left the band on friendly terms shortly after recording this album, is definitely going out on a high note here, his drumming is rock solid, inventive, and very exciting throughout the album. Meanwhile, Roine Stolt's guitar playing emerges from inside some mysterious wormhole bridging the gap between Frank Zappa, Robert Fripp and Steve Howe. There are lovely passages of classical guitar, lush 12-string chords, emotive solos, and some his heaviest riffs ever. Sword of God comes to mind as the definitive hard rock statement of the band.
Singer/guitarist Hasse Fröberg has also been given a lot more space to sing lead vocals on The Rainmaker, which gives the band an even more diverse sound than before. Fröberg's voice soars higher than Stolt's, almost going into Jon Anderson territory at times. The contrast between the two singers work very well.
There are of course the long and symphonic songs that the Flower Kings do so well, like the album opener Last Minute on Earth, with Roine Stolt riffing hard during the opening, then Fröberg comes in to ask you what you'd like to do during your last minute on this planet. Another high point is the 12 minute "City of Angels", with wonderful melodies from master keyboardist Tomas Bodin, and grandiose vocal harmonies in the chorus. Further into the same song, bassist Jonas Reingold gets a nice solo spot with his fretless bass.
And I think the cover design should be mentioned as well, as Roine Stolt has at last left that job to the professionals. His psychedelic aestethics-be-damned approach, while fun, made lyrics-reading very hard on the eyes sometimes.
The Flower Kings have picked up the torch of the soaring, symphonic art rock of the 70s, and do it with conviction.

Immigrants are waiting on a key decision on Obama immigration policies by the US Supreme Court expected by the end of June.
The U.S. Supreme Court will announce its decision in United States v. Texas between now and the end of June. The outcome will determine the future of two immigration relief programs on hold since Obama first announced them in 2014.
If the Supreme Court sides with the Obama administration, the programs would finally go into effect, providing certain undocumented immigrants with temporary protection from deportation and access to a work permit and a social security number.
One program would expand DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals), eliminating the age cap now in place with the existing program that was first announced in 2012.
The other, called DAPA (Deferred Action for Parents of Americans), would create a new program for undocumented parents who have U.S.-citizen or legal permanent resident children.
"If and when these programs go into effect, Ready California is working with many groups to get ready," said Sara Feldman, project director of Ready California, a statewide collaborative that is working to ensure the maximum number of eligible Californians benefit from DACA and DAPA.
Nationally, an estimated 5 million people could be eligible to apply for one of the programs.
Advocates are preparing immigrant communities for three possible outcomes.
In the case of a positive 5-3 decision, expanded DACA is expected to go into effect within days or weeks. DAPA is expected to go into effect a little later, in several weeks or months.
Families can start getting their documents together, but they will not be able to apply until the programs go into effect. Advocates warn that the potential for immigration scams during this time could be high, and that families should not pay anyone who promises to get them on a "waiting list" for a program that isn't available yet.
In the case of a negative decision or a 4-4 split, DAPA and expanded DACA would remain blocked. However, a 4-4 split would not set legal precedent and could not be used as a legal challenge to the current DACA program.

Webinar: Don't Pay The Ransom - Thu Aug 18 @ 1pm ET / 10am PT
Is your health system paying out for attacks on your data? How can we stop the cycle? Rubrik is offering incredible insight into the arising issues in cyber resilience in ransomware attacks, cloud data management with securing Epic in Azure, and unstructured data. In this webinar, we analyze the best practices to initiate in our hospital systems. Register here
Because we're really good now at taking pieces and parts of data from lots of different places and putting them into a separate database and sometimes that's in the cloud, you can have even more juicy, delicious data problems because you've taken data out of systems and put 'em together into something that you wanna do analytics on. And so that can be super valuable to the bad guys.
It's Newsday. My name is Bill Russell. I'm a former CIO for a 16 hospital system and creator of This Week Health, a channel dedicated to keeping health IT staff current and engaged. Special thanks to CrowdStrike, Proofpoint, Clearsense, MEDITECH, Cedars-Sinai Accelerator, Talkdesk and DrFirst who are our Newsday show sponsors for investing in our mission to develop the next generation of health 📍 leaders.
All right. It's Newsday. And today we are joined by DRTA Ford. Drex. Welcome back. Thank you. How's it going? Welcome back to the show and welcome back to the country.
Yeah. Thanks.
You just got back from a vacation. you're one of my, he friends. You do that kind of vacation where you actually you're healthier when you get back from the vacation than when you went out. So to get,
yeah. Yeah. We'll, we'll see. Right. I mean, it was a trip to Switzerland, so there was a lot of hiking and I mean, it was really sort of mostly based around hiking, but honestly, by the end of it, it became a lot based around the eating and the drinkings. So I'm not sure I came back healthier. I maybe I broke even which could be a goal just generally for vacation.
Well, just outta curiosity, we'll get to the news. There's a lot of interesting. Just outta curiosity. I don't even know what the stereotypes are. So Switzerland, chocolate, chocolate Swiss cheese.
Oh, cheese, cheese and chocolate.
Yeah. Yeah. Right. And wine really. There's some really great wine too. So, and beer really good beer actually.
Is there any protein in Switzerland? That's the question?
There's some great. There's some good beef. Yeah, good meat. And cause the cheese comes from the cows and then eventually it's good. The food was actually amazing. I don't think they're generally known for like great food, but for somebody like me who is a very. Basic food, drinking person. It was perfect.
I was gonna say if all you had was wine, cheese and chocolate you're gonna be one of those healthy guys who like just falls over someday. people are gonna be like, I don't know. He did like 30,000 steps a day. Just.
Yeah, he seemed perfectly fine.
n July four things to know in: 2022
We could also talk about that. Number three, it research and consulting firm Gartner said current tech expenses will be driven by an anticipated. 806 billion in spending on software up 10% from last year. That's a big number. Gardner also said it expects spending on new servers by cloud providers to grow.
Wow, 16.6%. And they build out as they build out capacity in data centers. And experts say they do not expect a large decline in it budgets, but say cloud computing is one of the few areas where it spending is expected to outpace 20, 21, which one of those topics sort of hit you that as a topic you wanna talk about.
So, I mean, I think just the general purpose growth in cloud and healthcare, right? In a couple of different versions. One is certainly the software as a service part of this, like buying buying your software, but not kind of in the old fashioned way of buying the licenses and installing amount of server on premise and then offering 'em up to the year end users, but buying more of a subscription kind of service.
And we've been going down that path in healthcare, I think for a while, more and more and more as we become more, we, we more aggressively embrace digital health and digital other things, business operations and research operations. We've been going down that path, but I see more and more organizations too, that are actually starting.
If they're doing sort of development. Software applications or business intelligence kinds of things themselves. They're actually going to the cloud expanding their capabilities in the cloud. So they're going to AWS or Azure or other places and Google and and building out those services.
All of which is super interesting because it's from a CrowdStrike perspective, it's one of the places where we see. Organizations making a lot of mistakes mostly in configuration misconfigurations of the cloud that can cause some pretty serious breaches because it's just accidental stuff, but it can still leave you open.
Yeah. cloud security is an interesting interesting conversation, not necessarily in this article itself, but really understanding your data. Where your data resides, what kind of data where it's moving around? I find most health systems don't really have a great handle on their Phi.
Some of it might be sitting over here in SharePoint. Some of it might be sitting over here and that kind of stuff, some of it might be in business associates and not being monitored and that kind stuff. So that becomes an area. That whole idea of in motion at rest knowing how your data is moving around.
So, I mean, that's, that's a little concerning. I think we need some really good cloud architects and cloud security architects. I think those are two. Different titles. Now, if I thought about it, of people that are coming together to really architect the environment and then architect the security around that environment.
Yeah, for sure. The other part of this too. That's kind of interesting that you. Touched on there is this issue of third party risk management. And I just I'm actually will pretty short, we publish a blog on that, but it's the idea of the other supply chain problem, right? We normally think of health systems having.
There are centers of gravity around data that really needs to be protected in the operational systems like the EHR or supply chain system or a research system or something like that. But because we're really good now at sort of taking pieces and parts of data from lots of different places and putting them into a separate database, and sometimes that's in the cloud, you can have even more juicy, delicious data problems because you've taken data out of systems and put 'em together into something that you wanna do analytics on. And so that can be super valuable to to the bad guys, not only that, but when it comes to third parties. Yeah. A lot of our data now, either software as a service, or if you think back to a few years ago, the black bot breach data that winds up going into a third party application. And then when that third party is breached, you wind up having to report to the health and human services wall of shame, because it was your data that was breached, even though it really had nothing to do with your network being breached. These are all challenges to your point about where is all of our data and who, who actually has their hands on it. And a lot of surprises for a lot of health systems when. Those third party breaches occur.
Yeah. Let's, let's talk about this phrase though. Experts say they do not expect a large decline in it budgets. It used to be when we entered a recession and we could still argue that point. We don't need to much there's there's a decline in the economy.
how I come into healthcare in: 2011
It's end of life, the vendor vendors saying we no longer support this stuff. And when it's 85%, you have to walk back into the board and go that money we didn't spend during the decline. We gotta spend it all. Like now I, I need and for us it was like a hundred million or so,
and you create this terrible sign, wave of investment that happens over time too cuz you have to spend a hundred million this year and then for the next three years you don't need to spend anything and then you need to spend a hundred million dollars again. Right. And it's like CFOs hate that unpredictability. They love. I wanna spend the same amount money every year. So I can like do all of my float, all my bonds and do all the stuff that I wanna do in a very predictable way.
I've been quoted as saying I like downturns. I like downturns cuz it gets us out of the. The steady rhythm of just spending money, spending money, spending money. And it gets us to focus in and to create efficiencies, right efficiencies, where they didn't exist before. So we look at automation in different areas that we looked at 'em before, and we look at ways to make our secure cybersecurity staff more effective than they've been before.
The answer isn't always, Hey, let's add five people cuz you can't continue to add five people, but in an economic downturn, there's just a hard. Right. So you're not gonna go above that. And so it creates creativity. How I describe it to people is some of the most creative people in the world are those people who, say a whole sentence on a license plate, right?
You read it and you just laugh. You're like, oh my gosh, they commuted so much with six letters. How did they do that? But the, but those boundaries. Are what really give us a, it really spurs our creativity. It's like, Hey, here's your parameters. Now go be as effective as you possibly can within those parameters.
So I'm kind of surprised. They say they don't expect spending to decrease. I hope it doesn't increase much or decreased much. In healthcare, I'm concerned that it will decrease at some health systems and that that'll put 'em behind the April.
Yeah. I I'm a Toyota lean production guy, as from across my career. And this idea of scarcity forces innovation to happen is a real thing. And maybe in some of these cases, the innovation that happens. Includes technology investments. And maybe that's why the budgets kind of wind up balancing out. They're gonna spend less in general.
They're gonna make fewer investments in general, but they're really gonna focus their investments. And it turns out more of those will be in technology than in other places. I don't know. I'm just guessing. 📍 📍 We'll get back to our show in just a bit. I'd love to have you join us next Thursday for our webinar, don't pay the ransom. Cyber threats are mounting everywhere, especially in healthcare leaders. Thomas Jefferson university health, as well as St. Luke's university health system and rubric are gonna join us to discuss solutions around protecting all healthcare data, even epic in operations on Azure. This webinar will be on Thursday, August 18th at 1:00 PM. Eastern time. You can register now at this week, health.com or by clicking on the registration link in the description below. Now back to our show. 📍 📍
All right. Next article, Senator sound the alarm on privacy. Call for HIPAA update. The risks to patients in a post Roe V. Wade world demand new protections. They say calling on HHS to amend the privacy rule, to ensure that information cannot be shared with law enforcement agencies, targeting individuals who seek an abortion to be honest with you, maybe that's the catalytic event, but HIPAA needed to be looked at didn't.
Yeah. I mean, I think it's a look, there's a lot of stuff that's happened since when did HIPAA come into existence? It must have been, I dunno, oh my gosh. Late nineties or something like that. Yeah. And, and there's been some updates along the way, but like most things the amount of technology capabilities that exist today that I invade.
Maybe the wrong word create opportunities for you to lose privacy have just expanded astronomically. And so they're probably, I mean, I'm, I'm totally with you. I think we've gotta look at HIPAA and I think that's why you see not just calls to review HIPAA, but you see. Many states on their own creating their own additional privacy rules because HIPAA doesn't go far enough or other privacy legislation doesn't go far enough nationally.
And so they start to do this on their own. It makes it really difficult for health systems, right? Because when you operate across states and now you have to comply with HIPAA, but you also have to comply with the California law and the New York law and the Texas law and GDPR it this whole privacy thing gets really messy, really.
Yeah. And in: 1996
I think we need to come together and say how much protection should the, they had it. This is where GDPR came from. They had it in Europe, they had this debate and this conversation. And now we see GDPR. I think it's time for us to have this same conversation. I don't, I actually, I don't, I'm not sure what's holding it up.
Yeah. I think that there's always a There's always a contingent. I think of lobbyists that from the privacy perspective one group pulls one way and one group pulls the other and often that's what holds up the show. So yeah, that would be my guess
All right. Let's see, I love this. You sent me these links back and because you sent 'em back to me, they have all sorts of security on 'em. So I can't like click on them. This is great. Next article, how health systems CIOs are overcoming it, staffing challenges are you seeing because we covered, I don't know if it was you and I covered this story or not, but we saw a story on cybersecurity professionals leaving the profession and really struggling to keep those staff current are you seeing this the staffing be a significant C.
I think the staffing continues to be a challenge just because it feels like as you look into the future, there's never gonna be enough cybersecurity pros to cover the openings that exist in organizations, but there's also the same sense of burnout that I think a lot of nurses and doctors feel right now about just nobody cares about me. And I don't see any light at the end of the tunnel, and I need to make a change in my life. There are a lot of cybersecurity pros who are also having that same sort of feeling right now.
And I would just say, hang in there. I think it can get better over time, but I know a lot of folks are struggling with that. And then it's interesting to have conversations with health systems across the country around one of the things that I know that you talk to CIOs a lot about, and that is the models around.
Remote workers or do you need to be here or what are the models that are used and the way that's sort of opened up health systems to be able to hire people together, otherwise wouldn't be able to hire, but at the same time, it's created a situation where the guy who wants to live in Flint, Michigan, because his family is there.
Yeah. And he doesn't wanna move. He doesn't wanna go anywhere else that person's now sort of. Has a whole new way to grow their career that they didn't have before the pandemic in a lot of, in a lot of ways.
Let's talk about compensation. Let's talk about adjusting compensation. This is a conversation I tend to have with CIOs a lot, and they'll say to me HR doesn't understand what it costs to hire a cyber professional today, or they don't understand this, or they don't understand how inflation is changing people's expectation.
and regardless of the work remote work local, I really wanna focus on compensation. How do you work with HR to get those salaries adjusted to the point where you are competitive in the market?
there's some good tools that your HR folks can use that let you benchmark salaries across your region or your state or your locality that gives you some place to start. But then the follow on conversation is, do we wanna be below the benchmark? Do we need to be above the benchmark? Do we need to be at the seventies, fifth percentile or the 25th percentile? They're interested also in not creating this inflation. A role of salaries, but you know, on the other side of that is.
There aren't enough people to go around. We're gonna have to pay a good salary to be able to get them here. I have, I've definitely had CIOs tell me that they've hired CISOs, that they're paying more than they're paying themselves. Because that's the environment that we're in today. So working with your HR folks,
I'm getting re-certified as a CISO, seems to be the, the job that is in the highest demand right now. And you can see it also in the chimed CISO bootcamps. There's a lot of, lot of people going into those things. it's interesting. The first question is when's the last time you benchmarked when I'm talking to a CIO and they're like, Hey HR, we have these ranges and it's just, I, I can't hire people at this range.
I go, all right. So let's start with when's the last time you did the benchmark and sometimes I'll hear, well, it was five years ago. Well, if it was five years ago, you need to run your benchmarks a little, a little more often than five years ago, cuz clearly the cost for people has changed based on what's going on.
That's one number two. I always tell people you have to drive a strong relationship. Your HR department, period. I mean, you just, it cannot be, it can never become adversarial and I've seen it become adversarial, cuz it's like they don't wanna redo these things and I can't hire and they they're.
You just have to put all that aside there. How can we work together? How can we get around this? I've seen people rewrite jobs job descriptions in order to increase the the value of the job or actually stack jobs, which is not. Not my favorite, cuz you end up putting an awful lot on one person, but essentially they'll say, Hey, if I bring these two jobs together, this one makes 75 and this one makes 75.
Can I pay somebody 110? And they look at 'em and go, yeah, if you're gonna eliminate two jobs and hire one, that's one way to do it as well. There's a lot of different strategies, but what it really requires is a good working relationship with HR to to look through it. I don't think there's a problem on the entry level side. Do you.
I think that if you're, if you want to do the work around. Bringing in, and this is we also have this conversation all the time. Do you find somebody who has the right attitude and the right willingness to learn and kind of has the right basic skill set and you can kind of teach them your way and teach them the stuff you wanna know.
If you wanna go down that pathway. Then I think there are a lot of folks who want to learn, especially cybersecurity, but technology in general. But it does take a lot of work to do that as opposed to hiring a sort of a full up round individual who knows what they're doing. Those people are harder to find. On the other hand, they cost more and they're more in demand. So the guarantee they're gonna stay with you longer period of time. That's probably the downside of.
Yeah. So this is a good article. If you get a chance to look at it, how health systems CIOs are overcoming it, staffing challenges you have ed McAllister, CIO for U P M C. Who's never been on the show by the way. If anyone knows ed tell him he needs to come on the show. I mean, I know, I know ed, I could reach out to him, but just
would love to have one the show. This is a really good article. I mean, all of those CIOs have different. Approaches and different recommendations. So it's a, it's a good piece of work to look at it. Just see if you're doing these things.
Yeah. It's a good cross section. You have U P M C Pittsburgh. You have Philadelphia, you have West Virginia, Cincinnati Olathe, Kansas Columbus, Ohio. Well, Columbus, Ohio is an interesting one. We're not gonna talk about it in this show, but the Ohio health essentially outsourcing their it organization to Accenture was a topic for last week's show. I'm gonna, I'm gonna spare you that, cuz we only have like two minutes and let's end on something a little more fun. I, you're killing me with this these security links you sent back to me, this cracks me up.
Oh no. Which one are you trying to get to? I'm trying to remember the stories
I got it. Top 25 women leaders in health tech. Here you go. And I sort of wanna talk about this. We know some of these people so digital health and health tech companies it has the top 25. So when you see these lists from Beckers or whatever, I mean, what's your first thought when you see these lists? Not specifically on women, but it has. The top 100 CIOs to know. And when I found myself on that list I sort of looked at it at one point and went, why am I on this list? I mean, they have no idea who I am, no one's ever called me or talked to me or whatever. And it's based primarily on the system.
Yeah, man. Whew. I could probably get myself in trouble here. but there's definitely a click bait, I think aspect to these things. Just sort of generally speaking. When I see my name on a list, I'm going to repost this along with the I'm honored and this is a really cool list and it's humbling to be in.
Group of this group appears and those kinds of things. And so people who know me on LinkedIn are gonna click on the list and look for their names too. And so I think that gets a lot of the stuff that advertisers really like. Yeah. And so they publish a lot of these kinds of lists. I don't know necessarily the value there except. If you're new to the industry and you just are trying to figure out who's who sometimes those can be really good lists. So,
we're not gonna talk about the whole diversity equity inclusion. Let's talk specifically about women in health it and not necessarily health tech and let's acknowledge right from the start as two white guys. Middle-aged white guys talking about this. But you know, I was really encouraged. I had an event earlier this year. I was really encouraged that of the 13 people that were there, seven of 'em were women, healthcare CIOs. I'm not sure that represents a trend though, because I'm doing some additional events and they're the ratio of female CIOs to male CIOs is still significantly tilted it's almost, I, I mean, I can't even come up with the number, but it's gotta be one to 10 10 to one kind of ratio still at this point. I'm not sure why that is anymore. I at one point we could make the case. There weren't enough stem graduates, but I don't think the CIO role is a stem role anymore. And so I'm I'm a little curious as to why that's still the case. And will we see more of the CIO roles be filled by women moving forward?
Yeah, I'm curious too. I mean, I can tell you that there are way more women, way more minorities than. Probably ever before, when I think back to my very early first days of going to conferences like chime and there was maybe two women in the whole room that's changed pretty drastically.
I think the rolling out electronic health records and doing other things like that have also created a lot of opportunities for more women, dominated professions in healthcare, like nursing for those nurses to bridge over to EHR jobs, and then eventually into technology, leadership jobs like CIO gigs, but it's still not, I mean, it's just not enough.
It's still really imbalanced and you. You're right. We just, I think still have a ton of work to do. And I think the women that I've worked with and helped mentor that have grown into these, some of these jobs. Are terrific people. Terrific sort of representatives heroes to to others.
And I hope that continues to sort of draw in more and more women into the field. It's we, we definitely need that. The growth expansion and diversity, and some
of them might be looking just past health. It. To be honest, I'm looking at some of these top 25 that they have listed here. Head of operations, chief operating officers, chief operating officers, chief medical officers research, head of scientific research, head of corporate strategy. Some of them might just be looking past and going, why would I stop in health? It there's for sure. Really cool. Startup thing that's going on.
And I could be at the cutting edge of really transforming aspects of healthcare as we move forward. So yeah. Yeah, Drex, it's always a pleasure to catch up with you. I really appreciate the conversation. Appreciate the time. Thank you.
Same here. Great to see you. Hope our paths cross in person soon.
📍 Absolutely.
What a great discussion. If you know someone that might benefit from our channel, from these kinds of discussions, please forward them a note, perhaps your team, your staff. I know if I were a CIO today, I would have every one of my team members listening to show just like this one. It's conference level value every week. They can subscribe on our website thisweekhealth.com. They can also subscribe wherever they listen to podcasts. Apple, Google, Overcast. You get the picture. We are everywhere. Go ahead. Subscribe today. We want to thank our news day sponsors who are investing in our mission to develop the next generation of health leaders. Those are CrowdStrike, Proofpoint, Clearsense, MEDITECH, Cedars-Sinai Accelerator, Talkdesk and DrFirst. Thanks for listening. That's all for now.

Roma Tiburtina: Noah's next station stop!
Modal Shift
On 7 May, Noah's journey passed through Italy and promoted the messages and commitment of Rail Freight Forward, the coalition of rail freight companies and associations from across Europe committed to help save up to 290 million tonnes of CO2 emissions over the next decade.
The Italian event is another landmark in Noah's journey which started in Katowice on 14 December 2018 in the context of the World Climate Conference. Since then, Noah has travelled across Europe and called at Vienna, Paris, Berlin and Brussels. Further stops are planned in Luxemburg and Munich and maybe more.
As pointed out by Dott. Gianluigi Castelli, President of FS Italiane and UIC Chairman, this unique initiative demonstrates concretely the ambition of the sector to boost modal shift and increase rail's market share towards an ambitious target of 30% by 2030. It is "a challenge which requires the full support of policy makers at national and supra national levels. It may also mean taking drastic measures, in particular in the field of interoperability improvement."
In the presence of Sergio Costa, Environment Minister, Gian Paolo Gotelli, CEO Mercitalia Rail, explained that the ambition of the Rail Freight Forward Coalition to make rail the backbone of mobility for a sustainable society relied on three pillars: the continuous improvement of rail products, the need to have sufficient and easy to use infrastructure, the need to have adequate framework conditions. He then explained the measures already taken by Mercitalia and FS Group in that context.
Sandra Géhénot, as representative of UIC, explained how this initiative came about and how it has become the cornerstone for a concrete freight work programme of operational and digital topics to progress collectively, as a sector, within a short term horizon. In addition UIC, with its consultative status to the UN High Level Group on Sustainable Mobility, actively supports this message at global level as well.
Minister Costa concluded that fighting climate change means fostering and encouraging modal shift towards rail and being committed to take this message to the next G20 in Japan at the end of June.

It was a day of redemption and renewal today within the high walls of the First Rising Mount Zion Baptist Church, an anchor in the capital's poor black Shaw neighborhood.
The Rev. Ernest R. Gibson, a longtime supporter of Mayor Marion S. Barry Jr., rose wearily to the pulpit and told his flock that the city's ''human tragedy'' was now in the hands of God.
The pastor said he had heard Mr. Barry's pledge that morning to seek help. He asked the predominately black congregation of Mount Zion, an institution that has been influential in Mr. Barry's past mayoral campaigns, to embrace the Mayor. ''Now we have to keep Marion Barry, his wife and his son, Christopher, in our prayers,'' Mr. Gibson said.
The minister said he believed that Federal agents entrapped the 53-year-old Mayor in its sting operation last week. But he said Mr. Barry must bear the responsibility for his actions.
''God has given us a mind that we can make up all by ourselves,'' Mr. Gibson said. ''No matter how attractive the bait is, we can't do something and blame it on somebody else.'' The church crackled with loud applause.
After his televised remarks, the Mayor became the subject of hastily updated sermons on morality and forgiveness. Yet opinions remained divided on the man and the politican.
Others, like David Jeppern, a law student at George Washington University, said he had been made too cynical by Mr. Barry's past arrogance and political antics to believe the Mayor one more time.
Bob Seward, a 40-year-old systems analyst who was buying a newspaper in Georgetown, said he saw Mr. Barry's televised comments and was touched. He said he hoped Mr. Barry could start a good life for himself.
''He can be a powerful force for good in this city if he can manage to stay sober,'' said Mr. Seward, who lives in the Mount Pleasant section of Northwest Washington.
Back in the Shaw neighborhood, Deborah Lee paced a tough corner of concrete and wind-driven trash. For 20 years, she said, she injected heroin and for a few more years smoked crack. The 34-year-old mother of two stood today in front of a closed liquor store as the sound of a church choir wafted into earshot.

Rorschach Audio book – thanks to Marq Smith!
Judging by the number of LPs and CDs whose sleeve-notes offer their apologies to "anyone we forgot", mistakes like this are all too common, however that makes it no less embarrassing to have omitted acknowledgement for Dr Marq Smith in the "Rorschach Audio" book. Marq Smith is the director of The Institute for Modern & Contemporary Culture at The University of Westminster and founder of The Journal of Visual Culture, without Marq's encouragement the "Rorschach Audio" project would not have been hosted by The University of Westminster, hence the book project would not have been brought to a successful conclusion. So, until an opportunity arises to thank Marq properly in print… thanks Marq… much appreciated!


Yes, we all know we should recycle, and we all know why, but we don't always make it very easy on ourselves.
One of the keys in encouraging recycling is to make it as easy, if not more so, than binning everything together. Whereas in our offices we have a mix of large recycling bins and small general waste bins, we've not been so successful in our public spaces at making it easy for visitors to BAC.
That's all set to change as we have bought a new collection of recycling bins and we're testing the best places to stand them. Of course, nothing is ever that simple here, and we have to show a bit of creativity. Whereas the bins are bright white, we have decided to decorate them with images from around the building, so you'll find them clad in pictures of mosaics, brick, windows, curtains, and old marketing posters from our past.
We have a zero-to-landfill policy (you can read more about this in our Environmental Policy, and on our Sustainability page) so all of our recyclable waste is seperated by our waste provider, and anything left over is used to create energy at their plant. Outside of general day-to-day waste, we use a skip hire company with the same policy, appropriate recycling companies, or arrange to re-purpose or re-use anything we no longer need.
This is not the permanent solution, and once we've figured out the right positions to maximise rubbish reaching the right bin, we'll invest in permanent bins.
If you have ideas that can help us in our aims, comment on our blog, or join the discussion on Twitter using the hashtags #greenarts and #LTCgreen.
Previous Response to Lyn Gardner blog: Are critics covering the right shows?


Lance Armstrong and Johan Bruyneel tonight hailed a superb Discovery Channel victory in the 67.5km Tour de France prologue between Tours and Blois, with Bruyneel declaring that the class of 2005 could be "the best team [I] have ever managed".
Armstrong then paid tribute to his team-mates and in particular Tour rookie Yaroslav Popovych. Both Armstrong and Bruyneel had feared that the absence of injured veteran Viatcheslav Ekimov from the Discovery Channel line-up could hamper their victory bid. Tonight, though, Armstrong said that Popovych had been a more than adequate replacement.
Popovych's efforts earned him the right to wear the white jersey as leader of the under-25 classification tomorrow. Asked tonight whether he also intended to protect Armstrong's lead in the coming days, Bruyneel smiled enigmatically and would say only that "we will discuss that tonight". Armstrong was more forthcoming, suggesting that, with Discovery Channel now occupying four of the top six places on GC courtesy of Hincapie, Jos Luis Rubiera and Popovych, the yellow jersey might leave his shoulders but not his team's custody over the coming days. He also hinted that Discovery might receive some unwitting help for their cause from Tom Boonen's Quick-Step team-mates.
"Sometimes in the Tour you have a rider who is a lot faster than the rest, and it looks that way with Boonen this year," Armstrong commented. "We all know how ambitious Tom Boonen is and, looking at him, I think he wants to win six or seven stages at this race. Consequently, his team will be looking to keep the race under control.
"When I abandoned Paris-Nice in March, I had serious doubts about [my prospects of wearing the yellow jersey in the Tour]," Armstrong then revealed. "But then I always have doubts, always feel insecure – I think it's very healthy for a top athlete. Paris-Nice wasn't a pleasant experience but then neither was the Tour of Georgia, nor the Dauphin Libr. The only way to react after those races was to ask myself how much I really wanted it.


For the second year in a row, a group of St. Mike's students joined faculty in Cuba for a two-week course in coral reef ecology. The trip was an extension of the students' fall semester course, which focused on the ecology, behavior, and inter-relatedness of the tremendous variety of organisms living in association with the coral reef. Through this deeply engaging, hands-on science program, students learned methods of field identification and taxonomic classification of reef organisms, and then performed underwater censuses at different beaches in the Bay of Pigs to create a baseline by which to measure the health of the reefs. Scientists in Cuba anticipate that the easing of travel restrictions with the U.S. will start to have a significant impact on the bay's ecosystem.
While science was the trip's focus, cultural learning was an intrinsic and essential part of the program as well. Students spent time in the homes of Cuban families and enjoyed traditional meals, music, dancing and more. Every evening during the group's reflection time, much of the talk was about how different the actual Cuba was from expectations.
Faculty-Led Academic Trips provide a remarkable opportunity for an intensive learning experience between Saint Michael's College students and faculty. Held over December-January break each year, these academic trips reflect the College's commitment to international education and experiential learning. Past trips have included courses in Ghana, China, and Wales.
The trips for 2016-17 have been just announced and include another visit to Cuba, as well as "Palestine and Israel: Jews, Christians and Muslims in the Holy Land" and "Costa Rica: Tropical Ecology Tour".


Now, wreaths can be costly. I don't know about you, but I am so not down with buying a wreath that I can't transition into another season (unless, of course, it's a longer decorating season like Christmas). Then it's worth the dollar (to me).
And I'm also not about to pay top dollar for a wreath to dismantle it.
So how exactly do you make a captivating wreath that's love inspired but transitional to spring after Valentine's Day?
Themes are good, but keeping colors neutral is the best way to transition from Valentine's Day.
Start with your greenery and choose your embellishments according to what your personal decor style is. Give yourself some room in your design to add, change or even move the piece around.
A Valentine's Day wreath can show variety and creativity. You're not limited.
Let's look at some popular choices.
Valentine's Day usually involves chocolates and flowers. So it's totally appropriate to create a flowery wreath and incorporate hints of chocolate color. It's a perfect fit and completely transitions into spring.
The chocolate in this wreath comes from the deep brown vine wreath. Paired with the bright flowers, this makes a beautiful option that can transition into the spring months.
artificial berries for a fruity change.
For a more simplistic and laidback Valentine's Day wreath, burlap never grows old.
A cute burlap wreath with a red, pink or even a white bow makes a really pretty statement for Valentine's Day, and it's so stinking easy to pop off that bow ad add something in its place.
Burlap V-Day wreaths are also easy enough for a last-minute DIY project. Catch the link below for this one.
Making a more elaborate wreath is always an option, if that's your style. The more florals you include, the more elaborate (and romantic) your can make your wreath.
You can shell out cash if you want, but most of these wreaths are simple to make and only require your choice of flowers, greenery and a little hot glue.
And I should probably mention, the trick to removing some of these pieces from a wreath is to not overdo the hot glue. Just a little hot glue will keep the flowers in place while making them easy to remove for restyling for the next holiday or season.
Here's are a few versatile, wreaths that aren't exactly DIY, but they're great for giving a few ideas for creating one that's versatile enough to go straight into spring. For Valentine's Day, you can easily add a pink bow for that pop of color and remove it when it's over to take it into spring.
Artificial Green Wreath see here.
Keeping the meaning of the wreath always seems to add more value to using one to me. I love the thought of taking an old tradition and adding a new twist (that doesn't detract from the meaning).
This quote is just one reminder of how we can use the wreath in our every day decor and as the symbol of eternity as well.
What wreath will you hang for this season? Comment below. I'd love to hear.

Dogged denial
July 5, 2019 · by Your Herald	· in news.	·
A DOGGY daycare in the West Perth scout hall has been rejected again by Perth council commissioners, despite warnings from staff the decision could be overturned on appeal and the city hit with legal costs.
Commissioners Andrew Hammond and Gaye McMath first rejected the Madame Ma's Doggie Daycare application for a change-of-use for 581 Murray Street on April 30.
Council planning staff said the proposal met all requirements, but it was rejected over fears the dogs would be too noisy for nearby apartment residents who'd submitted a list of concerns (including that a dog centre there would hurt property values).
Applicant Marian Gorman appealed to the State Administrative Tribunal which told the council to rethink its decision, while Ms Gorman provided more information about sound-proofing the luxury pooch centre.
• Marian Gorman is appealing to the SAT, and Perth council staff say she'll likely win. Photo by KRD Photography
City staff recommended commissioners approve it a second time round, citing a legal precedent of a similar case in Belmont where the dog centre won on appeal.
The SAT could also reject strict conditions the city wanted to impose, they warned.
Ahead of voting commissioners heard a lengthy deputation against the daycare centre from Alice Brown, strata chair and resident from the nearby "Iceworks" apartment at 611 Murray Street. Her concerns included noise, odour, and having more traffic of up to 60 dog owners dropping off their animals.
But it was the noise that remained the commissioners' biggest concern.
"I do not believe that the extra information that was provided, and the extra actions contained therein, they did not give me enough confidence to think that there was not going to be a future noise problem and an inappropriate impact on the amenity of that surrounding area," Comsr Hammond said
Ms Gorman, having already spent tens of thousands on a fit out and acoustics report, is taking it back to the SAT for a second time.

Is this for real??? a doggy day care in the CBD? the reason why dog breeders are in Canning Vales is because of the noise and smell. I love dogs and have always had them, but put 60 dogs in the same place and you have major problems – this of course will also be adding to the traffic congestion of pick up and drop off in the city – that area gets massive traffic congestion from 7.30 – 9 and 4 – 5.30, so to add to further congestion by having a daycare for dogs is irresponsible.
It bad enough in suburbia where kids are dropped off and picked up at schools (and not all kids are picked up and dropped off)- here you will need to park, drop odd and then the same in the afternoon when you pick up – we then add that as dogs are being picked up or dropped off – there will be a a massive escalation of noise with dogs barking as they leave the premises, it will also mean more droppings on the side of the road/car park as owners pick up and drop off and as we all know – not all owners pick up after their dogs which will be adding to the smell – and whilst its easy to say it will be picked up by the facility owners – dog poo over time on paving – will smell and the smell will remain as it seeps in to cement.
It is also important to take in to consideration the number of people that work and live within 200 meters of this proposed daycare who will have their lives severely impacted by this proposal by the reasons set out above and of course all the commuters that drive through this street to get to and from work
There are plenty of areas outside the CBD that can and should be considered for a dog daycare and the CBD should certainly not be an option.

Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers, Ser. II, Vol. VI:
Prefaces.: The Four Gospels.
Early Church Fathers Index Previous Next
The Four Gospels.
Addressed to Pope 5386 Damasus, a.d. 383.
You urge me to revise the old Latin version, and, as it were, to sit in judgment on the copies of the Scriptures which are now scattered throughout the whole world; and, inasmuch as they differ from one another, you would have me decide which of them agree with the Greek original. The labour is one of love, but at the same time both perilous and presumptuous; for in judging others I must be content to be judged by all; and how can I dare to change the language of the world in its hoary old age, and carry it back to the early days of its infancy? Is there a man, learned or unlearned, who will not, when he p. 488 takes the volume into his hands, and perceives that what he reads does not suit his settled tastes, break out immediately into violent language, and call me a forger and a profane person for having the audacity to add anything to the ancient books, or to make any changes or corrections therein? Now there are two consoling reflections which enable me to bear the odium—in the first place, the command is given by you who are the supreme bishop; and secondly, even on the showing of those who revile us, readings at variance with the early copies cannot be right. For if we are to pin our faith to the Latin texts, it is for our opponents to tell us which; for there are almost as many forms of texts as there are copies. If, on the other hand, we are to glean the truth from a comparison of many, why not go back to the original Greek and correct the mistakes introduced by inaccurate translators, and the blundering alterations of confident but ignorant critics, and, further, all that has been inserted or changed by copyists more asleep than awake? I am not discussing the Old Testament, which was turned into Greek by the Seventy elders, and 5387 has reached us by a descent of three steps. I do not ask what 5388 Aquila and 5389 Symmachus think, or why 5390 Theodotion takes a middle course between the ancients and the moderns. I am willing to let that be the true translation which had apostolic approval. I am now speaking of the New Testament. This was undoubtedly composed in Greek, with the exception of the work of Matthew the Apostle, who was the first to commit to writing the Gospel of Christ, and who published his work in Judæa in Hebrew characters. We must confess that as we have it in our language it is marked by discrepancies, and now that the stream is distributed into different channels we must go back to the fountainhead. I pass over those manuscripts which are associated with the names of 5391 Lucian and Hesychius, and the authority of which is perversely maintained by a handful of disputatious persons. It is obvious that these writers could not amend anything in the Old Testament after the labours of the Seventy; and it was useless to correct the New, for versions of Scripture which already exist in the languages of many nations show that their additions are false. I therefore promise in this short Preface the four Gospels only, which are to be taken in the following order, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, as they have been revised by a comparison of the Greek manuscripts. Only early ones have been used. But to avoid any great divergences from the Latin which we are accustomed to read, I have used my pen with some restraint, and while I have corrected only such passages as seemed to convey a different meaning, I have allowed the rest to remain as they are.
The Preface concludes with a description of lists of words made by Eusebius and translated by Jerome, designed to show what passages occur in two or more of the Gospels.
Made pope 366, died 384. Jerome had been his secretary at the Council held at Rome in 382, and continued is literary services till the pope's death, in 385.
That is, after being translated from Hebrew into Greek, and from Greek into Latin.
Aquila belonged to the second century, but whether to the first half, or to the early part of the second half, cannot be determined. He was a Jewish proselyte, of Sinope in Pontus, and is supposed to have translated the books of the Old Testament into Greek in order to assist the Hellenistic Jews in their controversies with Christians. Jerome's estimate of him varied from time to time. In his commentary on Hos. ii., Is. xlix., and Letter XXVIII., etc., he treats him as worthy of credit. On the other hand, in the letter to Pammachius, De Opt. Gen. Interp. (LVII. 11), he describes him as contentiosus; but in Letter XXXVI. 12, he denies that he is such. In the preface to Job he speaks of Aquila, Symmachus, and Theodotion as "Judaising heretics, who by their deceitful translation have concealed many mysteries of salvation." The second edition of Aquila's version, which was extremely literal, was highly esteemed by the Jews, and was called by them the Hebrew verity. See Davidson's "Biblical Criticism," p. 215, etc.
Symmachus was the author of the third Greek version. He is said to have been a Samaritan by birth. The date of his version cannot be accurately fixed; but, apparently, it appeared after Theodotion's. "He does not adhere to the text so closely as to render it verbatim into Greek; but chooses to express the same in perspicuous and intelligible language."—Davidson.
Theodotion, the author of the second Greek version, was a native of Ephesus. His version is thought to have been made before 160. "The mode of translation adopted by him holds an intermediate place between the scrupulous literality of Aquila and the free interpretation of Symmachus," and his work was more highly valued by Christians than that of either Aquila or Symmachus. Daniel was read in his version in the churches (Pref. to Joshua).
Lucian in Syria and Hesychius in Egypt attempted their recensions about the middle of the third century, the time when Origen also began to labour in the same direction. Lucian's recension, also called the Constantinopolitan, and to which the Slavonian and Gothic versions belong, spread over Asia Minor and Thrace. See the Preface to the Chronicles. It was decreed by a council held under Pope Gelasius, a.d. 494, that "the Gospels which Lucian and Hesychius falsified are apocryphal."

Biology: Hailing from the planet Venus, Karamtor is understandably impossible to place in the taxonomy of terrestrial animals. Its physiology is similar to a gastropod in some respects, with portions of its slimy flesh being able to retract into complex silicon armor. It spits digestive acid at its prey much like a fly. These are as earth-like as its traits get. Its cells respirate sulfur instead of oxygen, its body is freakishly durable even by kaiju standards, and its prefers temperatures of extreme heat. On earth, it seeks out volcanoes and similar environments, as it finds them far more hospitable to its biology. Strangest of all, however, are its two appendages that can only be described as organic chainsaws. While no one knows how its species reproduces, we do know Karamtor takes care of its young.
Personality: No one can say how much of Karamtor's behavior on Earth is natural and how much is a result at its panic from being thrust into an alien and somewhat hostile environment. It reacts to most terrestrial species with shock, spinning its saw-toothed hands and vomiting acid wildly in an effective threat display. Being one of the largest kaiju ever discovered – on this or any other planet – Karamtor is never scared enough to flee outright, and will instead fight for its life.
Left to its own devices, Karamtor seeks out environments similar to its homeworld: areas with intense heat and, if possible, a large amount of sulfur. It has been found clinging to the interior of volcanoes in a state of torpor, a state that few wish to drag it out of.
Karamtor came to this planet pregnant, and eventually "gave birth" to a baby of its kind (no one witnessed the event in question). For all its alien needs, Karamtor is a dedicated parent and fiercely protective of its young spawn. Any who threaten its offspring will shortly face the wrath of one of the largest and most resilient kaiju on the planet Earth.

Eshe also won Asia's "People's Choice" award as part of the show. The same year dance legend Sema Yildiz gave her the name "Yildiz" or "Star" in Turkish after she performed at the famed Gar Casino in Istanbul. 2010-2015 Eshe ran her own bellydance studio in Seoul called Dream Dance Studio. She appeared regularly at high-profile art festivals such as Korea Experimental Arts Festival, Bucheon International Performance Art Festival, Korea International Performing Arts Festival, as well as night clubs, grand openings, art galleries, traditional markets and festivals, restaurants, and in cultural outreach programs targeting those in the countryside.
