Q: A problem of compatibility between titlesec/titleps and biblatex I recently met a problem when trying to format headers and footers of the bibliography with titlesec/titleps, and I can't understand what's happening.
More precisely, if I change the page style just before \printbibliography using one of the standard page styles (empty, plain, for instance), the page style does change accordingly. If I try a custom pagestyle defined with titleps, the page style also changes, but the default page style also seems to be used, as is demonstrated by the following code, where the page style for even pages is left side: page no, right side: Bibliography in boldface.
I'd be very grateful for any help solving this problem.

A: I haven't looked into the details but titleps's manual notes that the use of \markboth can lead to 'unpredictable results' (page 3).
I believe that the problem is that the code for the bibliography heading does something like the following:
\chapter*{\bibname}
\markboth{\bibname}{\bibname}

The details depend on the class. For book, it looks like this:
  \defbibheading{bibliography}[\bibname]{%
    \chapter*{#1}%
    \markboth{\MakeUppercase{#1}}{\MakeUppercase{#1}}}

So, redefining the heading to avoid \markboth:
\defbibheading{bibliography}[\bibname]{%
  \chapter*{#1}}

should eliminate the unwanted header and footer:

1. Placing An Order 1.1 To place an order you will need to follow the order procedure set out on the Site. Details of the price payable in respect of any Product and the procedure for payment are displayed on the Site.
1.2 Any times or dates stated for delivery are estimates only. We will make reasonable efforts to deliver goods within the time specified, but we do not accept liability for any failure to deliver within that time.
1.3 We are entitled to refuse any order placed by you.
1.4 After placing an order, you will receive an e-mail from us acknowledging that we have received your order. Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted. Your order constitutes an offer to us to buy the Product.
1.5 We may revise, discontinue or modify products or services at any time without prior notice to you and products may become unavailable without notice. We shall have no liability of any kind if any product or service is not available.
1.6 You undertake that all details you provide to us for the purpose of purchasing Products via the Site will be correct, that the credit or debit card, or any electronic cash, which you use is your own and that there are sufficient funds or credit facilities to cover the cost of any Products. We reserve the right to obtain validation of your credit or debit card details before providing you with any Products.
2.1 Payment for all Products must be made by credit or debit card, or Paypal at the time of order. We accept payment only from the credit and debit cards listed at the point of payment on the Site.
2.2 We sell a large number of Products and it is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Products listed on the Site may be incorrectly priced or that the price may increase between your order and our acceptance of your order. We will normally verify prices as part of the process so that, where a Product's correct price is less than the stated price, we will charge the lower amount when processing the Product. If a Product's correct price is higher than the price stated on the Site, we will normally, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before sending a confirmation and/or shipping the Product, or reject your order and notify you of such rejection so that you can then re-order at the correct price if you wish.
2.3 If a pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could have reasonably been recognized by you as a mis-pricing we are under no obligation to provide the Product to you at the incorrect (lower) price, even if we have already sent you an order Confirmation.
2.4 You will be responsible for payment of any applicable taxes payable in connection with any order.
3. Availability and delivery Your order will be fulfilled by the delivery date set out in the Order Confirmation or, if no delivery date is specified, then within 30 days of the date of the Order Confirmation, unless there are exceptional circumstances.
4.2 Ownership of the Products will only pass to you when we receive full payment of all sums due in respect of the Products, including delivery charges and all other applicable charges, taxes and/or import duties.
5. Identity of Seller You acknowledge that any Products purchased via the Site will be purchased from Wade Maid.
6. Eligibility Please note that the purchase of Products via the Site is available only to users that can form legally binding contracts under United States law.
7.1 If you receive Products which are faulty on arrival or are not what you ordered then we shall, at our option replace or repair any damaged, defective or incorrect products, or refund to you the amount you paid for the goods in question (in accordance with clause 7.4) PROVIDED THAT you notify us of the problem in writing at the address stated in the confirmation e-mail within 7 working days of delivery of the Products.
7.2 To cancel any Contract or order, you must inform us in writing. You must return the Product in the same condition in which you received it, and at your own risk. You must return the Product at your own cost. You have a legal obligation to take reasonable care of the Products while they are in your possession. If you fail to take reasonable care of any Products and do not return them to us in their original condition, we may have a right to seek compensation from you for any loss of, or damage to, the Product.
7.3 When you return a Product to us: (a) We will process the refund due to you as soon as possible, and in most cases, within 30 days of the day we receive the product back. We will refund the price of the Product in full, excluding the original shipping costs and your shipping costs to return the product to us. You will be responsible for the cost of returning the item to us; or (b) for any other reason (for instance, the Product is defective), we will examine the returned Product and will notify you of your refund within a reasonable period of time. We will usually process the refund due to you as soon as possible and, in most cases, within 30 days of the day we confirmed that you were entitled to a refund for the defective and/or returned product or products. Products returned by you because of a defect, or our error, will be refunded in full, excluding a refund of the original delivery charges for sending the item to you and the cost incurred by you in returning the item to us.
7.4 We will usually refund any money received from you using the same method originally used by you to pay for your purchase. NOTE: Paypal purchases can only be refunded through Paypal up to 60 days, after that period Paypal purchased refunds will be refunded by check from Wade Maid.

7.5 Nothing in this clause affects your statutory rights.
8.1 We warrant to you that any Product purchased from us via the Site is of satisfactory quality and reasonably fit for the purposes for which products of the same kind are commonly supplied.

8.2 Our liability for losses you suffer as a result of us breaching this Contract is strictly limited to the purchase price of the Product you purchased.
8.3 We do not exclude or limit our liability (if any) in any way: (a) for death or personal injury caused by our negligence; (b) under section 2(3) of the Consumer Protection Act 1987; (c) for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; or (d) for any matter for which it is unlawful to exclude, or attempt to exclude, our liability.
8.4 Subject to clause 8.3, you acknowledge and agree that we shall not be liable for: (a) any indirect loss, claim or damage, or any punitive, special, incidental or consequential damages of any kind that are not directly associated with the incident that caused your claim; (b) any loss of profit or savings; (c) loss or corruption of data or information; (d) loss of contracts, business or opportunity; (e) damage to goodwill or reputation(s); in each case whether direct or indirect and in each case whether based in contract, tort (including without limitation negligence), strict liability, or otherwise, arising out of or in connection with these Terms of Sale, the Products and/or their use thereof, in each case even if we have been forewarned or are aware of the possibility of such loss or damage.
8.5 If you do not receive Products ordered by you within 30 days of the date on which they were shipped to you, we shall have no liability to you unless you notify us in writing of the problem within 40 days of the date on which the goods were sent to you. If you notify a problem to us under this condition, our only obligation will be, at our option, to make good any shortage or non-delivery.
9.1 If you order Products via the Site for delivery outside the US, they may be subject to import duties and taxes which are levied when the delivery reaches the specified destination. You will be responsible for payment of any such import duties and taxes. Please note that we have no control over these charges and cannot predict their amount.

In proving the service of any notice, it will be sufficient to prove, in the case of a letter, that such letter was properly addressed, stamped and placed in the post and, in the case of an e-mail, that such e-mail was sent to the specified e-mail address of the addressee.
14.1 Neither party shall be liable for any delay or failure in performing its obligations (other than any payment obligation) under a Contract if such delay or failure is caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control including, without limitation, an act of government, war, civil unrest, fire, flood, an Act of God or failure of suppliers and/or service providers ("Force Majeure"). We may terminate a Contract if we are unable to perform our obligations under a Contract for a period of 60 days by reason of Force Majeure.
15.1 If we fail, at any time during the term of a Contract, to insist upon strict performance of any of your obligations under the Contract or any of these Terms of Sale, or if we fail to exercise any of the rights or remedies to which we are entitled under the Contract, this shall not constitute a waiver of such rights or remedies and shall not relieve you from compliance with such obligations.
15.3 No waiver by us of any of these Terms of Sale shall be effective unless it is expressly stated to be a waiver and is communicated to you in writing.
16.1 If any of these Terms of Sale or any provisions of a Contract are determined by any competent authority to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable to any extent, such term, condition or provision will to that extent be severed from the remaining terms, conditions and provisions which will continue to be valid to the fullest extent permitted by law.
17.1 Subject to clause 18, these Terms of Sale and any document expressly referred to in them represent the entire agreement between us in relation to the subject matter of any Contract and supersede any prior agreement, understanding or arrangement between us, whether oral or in writing.
17.2 You acknowledge that, in entering into a Contract, you have not relied on any representation, undertaking or promise given by the other or be implied from anything said or written in negotiations between us prior to such Contract except as expressly stated in these Terms of Sale.
17.3 Neither of us shall have any remedy in respect of any untrue statement made by the other, whether orally or in writing, prior to the date of any Contract (unless such untrue statement was made fraudulently) and the other party's only remedy shall be for breach of contract as provided in these Terms of Sale.
18. Our right to vary these Terms of Sale We have the right to revise and amend these Terms of Sale from time to time. You will be subject to the policies and Terms of Sale in force at the time that you order products from us, unless any change to those policies or these Terms of Sale is required to be made by law or governmental authority (in which case it will apply to orders previously placed by you), or if we notify you of the change to those policies or these Terms of Sale before we send you the Order Confirmation (in which case we have the right to assume that you have accepted the change to the Terms of Sale, unless you notify us to the contrary within seven working days of receipt by you of the Products).
19. Law and jurisdiction The Terms of Sale and all Contracts for the purchase of Products via the Site will be governed by and construed in accordance with United States law. Any dispute arising from, or related to, such Contracts, these Terms of Sale and/or any Product shall be subject to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts.

Wherever you live in the Hinterland, you can be involved with enhancing habitat for our native plants and animals. It doesn't matter if you own 100 acres or a house-block in town. If you don't own or manage land you can get involved with a Landcare or Bushcare group and assist with connecting, restoring and protecting habitat in your district.
Protect and enhance what's left first. Don't put energy into recreating habitat until you or your organisation has protected existing bushland under your control.
Big areas of bush are more important than small areas. They are more likely to support viable populations of wildlife.
Round or square patches of bush are more resistant to weed invasion and other edge effects than long narrow strips.
Big trees are better. They produce more nectar and fruit and often have hollows and crevices needed by many animals. One large old tree will generally have much greater habitat value for wildlife than a number of young trees.
Dead wood is wildlife habitat. It provides food, shelter and nutrients for many species. If it is safe to do so, leave it standing and leave it fallen.
Weeds are the biggest threat to bushland in the Hinterland. Get to know the weeds on your land. Start weed eradication in areas of least invasion and graduate towards the worst.
Untidiness is good for wildlife. Un-mown areas with fallen branches, tall grass, leaves and rocks will provide refuge for many native animals, even in a small garden.
Natural regeneration is more cost-efficient and generally more effective than planting trees. If you have native plants coming up, protect them where you can from livestock, and weed around them to allow them to mature quickly.
Where there is no natural regeneration, consider revegetating areas with local plant species. Even one native tree in a garden can help local birds and other wildlife.
Fencing off creek banks from livestock will protect sensitive habitat, provide a wildlife corridor and reduce sedimentation of streams.
Barbed wire can catch and kill some animals. Install wildlife-friendly fencing where possible to reduce the risk of snagging wildlife.
Consider options for restoring wildlife corridors within your property and with your neighbours. Broader corridors are better for wildlife.

Former NBA player Joel Anthony joins front office of CEBL's Honey Badgers
Former NBA player Joel Anthony has been named as a player consultant for the Canadian Elite Basketball League's Hamilton Honey Badgers for the 2020 season.
Anthony, from Montreal, played 10 seasons in the NBA from 2007 to 2016.
He spent his first seven seasons with the Miami Heat, helping the team win NBA titles in 2012 and 2013. He also played for Boston, Detroit and San Antonio.
After being cut by the Milwaukee Bucks before the 2017-18 season, Anthony signed with San Lorenzo, which competes in both Argentina's top league and the Americas League. During his two-year stint with San Lorenzo he helped the club win back-to-back championships in both leagues.
We'd like to announce Joel Anthony as Player Consultant to the Honey Badgers for the 2020 Season.

"Joel Anthony brings extensive playing experience at the highest level of basketball that will help in the development of our players this season," Hamilton general manager Jermaine Anderson said in a release. "Joel was with two NBA championship-winning teams in Miami and has competed alongside some of the NBA's very best players, including Shaquille O'Neal, LeBron James, Chris Bosh, Kawhi Leonard and Alonzo Mourning.
"He has learned the game under the guidance of coaches such as Pat Riley, Gregg Popovich, Erik Spoelstra, Brad Stevens and Stan Van Gundy. He has a lot to offer our players, coaches, and staff."
The start of the 2020 CEBL season has been pushed back to at least June because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Hamilton was originally scheduled to tip off its season May 8 in Edmonton.

The somewhat unseasonable cool weather we have been having (29 degrees in Clarksville Thursday night) has made me postpone planting my spring broccoli and cauliflower. While these plants will withstand cool weather, very cool weather causes them to form button heads rather than full size flower heads. As a result, I have 16 flats of cool season vegetables waiting in my cold frames, some for my garden and some for a food bank garden where I volunteer.
So with the warmer weather predicted for this weekend, I decided to plant some Packman broccoli, Snow Crown cauliflower, Golden Acre cabbage, Early White Vienna kohlrabi, Red Sails and Buttercrunch lettuce. I plant Packman and Snow Crown in the spring because they have short "days to maturity" times (55 and 60 days, respectively), usually yielding beautiful heads of broccoli and cauliflower before the hot June weather arrives.
I prepared my bed by adding .2 pound of nitrogen per 100 square feet and working it into the soil. In the spring, I use a ntirogen source that has readily available nitrogen since the microbes in the soil aren't fully active in cool soil. Next, I planted my broccoli, cauliflower and cabbage transplants in an X pattern. The plants at the corners of the X are spaced at 3 feet apart, while the center transplant is 18 inches from the corners. This pattern yields 5 plants in a 3 by 3 foot space. In the space between the broccoli, cauliflower and cabbage, I plant my lettuce, which will yield before the brassicas and ultimately be shaded by the larger plants. My kohlrabi is planted on one foot centers which allows me to get 25 plants in a 3 foot section of my raised bed.
Each transplant is watered in with a 50% solution of water soluble fetilizer to get them off to a great start. Next, I laid out my drip irrigation tubes and placed my wire hoops over the beds to support my insect barrier row cover. The wire hoops are made from 9 gauge galvanized wire and are 76 inches long. The wire supports the row cover and protects the small transplants from the row cover. Later, as the brassicas get larger, I'll remove the wire and let the brassicas support the insect barrier.
Lastly, I place the row cover over the wire hoops and tack it to the ground using sod staples. With the row cover and drip irrigation in place, I know that I'll have delicious broccoli and cauliflower in late May. The lettuce and kohlrabi will be ready for the kitchen in early May.
Kent, I love — and stand in awe — of the neatness of this rig and your rows. This week should make everything pop!


How Can I Plan for My Own Disability? - New York City Estate Lawyer Albert Goodwin, Esq.
How Can I Plan for My Own Disability?
There are ways to manage what happens to you in the event you are not well enough to make your own decisions. A Power of Attorney allows you to appoint a person to manage your financial affairs, a Health Care Proxy allows you to appoint a person to make medical decisions for you and a Living Will makes known your wishes regarding life-prolonging medical treatments.
A Power of Attorney is a legal document in which you give another person legal authority to act for you. There are many uses for a power of attorney, from giving your spouse the authority to sell your apartment to giving your child the authority to take over financial decisions in the event you become incapacitated.
For your agent, you will select someone you trust, like your child or spouse. A recovable power of attorney makes sure that you can change your agent at any time.
If you do not have a power of attorney, your family might have no choice but to ask the court to appoing a guardian to make medical or financial decisions on your behalf. This procedure can be expensive and time consuming, and may result in the court appoinging someone that you might not have wanted to make financial decisions on your behalf.
There are three basic types of Power of Attorney which we use for estate planning purposes.
The Limited Power of Attorney allows you to authorize another person to act as your agent for a limited period in time or for specific circumstances only. For example, to make someone an agent for a specific transaction, or only until you recover from an illness.
The Durable Power of Attorney authorizes your agent to continue to act on your behalf after you become incapacitated. This document takes effect as soon as you sign it.
A Springing Power of Attorney goes into effect only if you become incapacitated. It's up to you to define how incapacitated you need to be for the Power of Attorney to go into effect.
The Living Will determines what life-sustaining measures, if any, you wish to be taken in case you will not be able to direct the doctors. For example, do you want to leave a do not resuscitate (DNR) instruction? Does you religion dictate a preference? What do you want to happen to your organs? These, and many other issues are addressed in your living will.
The Health Proxy is a document that specifies the person that you would like to make health decisions for you when you are not able to do so yourself.
Call the Law Offices of Albert Goodwin at (212) 233-1233 and make an appointment to discuss your estate planning needs.

The Skin Of Our Teeth in the Event of an Air Raid
On August 7, 1955, a special limited engagement revival of Thornton Wilder's THE SKIN OF OUR TEETH opened at the Anta Playhouse (Wilson), produced with Robert Whitehead, directed by Alan Schneider. This was at the peak of anti-Communist hysteria, and the fear of nuclear attack.
At the top of the Playbill title page are these words: "IN THE EVENT OF AN AIR RAID ALARM REMAIN IN YOUR SEATS AND OBEY THE INSTRUCTIONS OF THE MANAGEMENT"
The production opened in Paris then played Chicago and Washington before Broadway.
Mr & Mrs Antrobus were Ms Helen Hayes and George Abbott. This was Mr Abbott's first stage appearance since he directed himself in JOHN BROWN at the Barrymore in 1933.
Mary Martin played the saucy maid Sabina, and Florence Reed reprised her original star turn as the Fortune Teller. The great Jamaican actor Frank Silvera was in the cast, as was Frances Sternhagen as Miss T Muse, in her Broadway debut.
The Wilder Family thanks Martin Platt for this piece.

Q: Solr or Lucene like single application Hello i have already working application for searching in database. In database I have like 50M indexed documents. There is any idea to run all together i mean i don't want solr on http? what should i do? it's better to use Lucene or EmbeddedSolrServer? Or maybe you have other solution?

I have already something like on 1st diagram and i want make this in single process
And if i will go in lucene can i use my indexes from solr?
solr-5.2.1
Tomcat v8.0

A: It is not recommended to have one tomcat and deploy the application and solr.
If solr crashes then they are chances of getting downtime for the application. So its always better to run solr independently. Embedding solr is also not recommended.
The simplest, safest, way to use Solr is via Solr's standard HTTP interfaces. Embedding Solr is less flexible, harder to support, not as well tested, and should be reserved for special circumstances.
for reference http://wiki.apache.org/solr/EmbeddedSolr

A: It depends. If you want to use parts of the Solr feature set (Solr adds quite a few features on top of Lucene), you'll reimplement features that you otherwise would get for free.
You can use EmbeddedSolr to have Solr internal to your application, and then use the EmbeddedSolrServer client in SolrJ to talk to it - the rest of your application would still use Solr as it were a remote instance.
The problem with EmbeddedSolr is that you'll run into scalability issues as the index size grows, since you'll have a harder time scaling onto multiple servers and to separate concerns.

First match coming up.... Help me be ready!
Looks like I have a match coming up, that's more or less local, and I have a day free!
OK, so Ive been reading up... but Im still pretty lost. It looks like I will just be shooting .22. Between ammo, and hardware issues my 45 is out. I do have a model 19 revolver that I can shoot centerfire with though.. Does it make since to shoot .22, and CF, but not 45? What will I need to bring? I see it lists a .22 Caliber 2700 Aggregate match. Ive never read about that before. How does it score compared to the 3 gun match? If you just shoot the .22 in a normal match how are you scored? Any help would be great. Im a little lost, and Im sure the first time will be a little crazy, but if I can at least be semi prepared that will ease things.
Re: First match coming up.... Help me be ready!
You will have plenty of time to adjust sights in slow fire, however, I rarely adjust my sights on the 22 between 25 and 50 yards. Most people at our club are done with slow fire in 5 minutes, so 10 gives plenty of time for sight adjustment and even a few dry fire shots before you really get started.
Well I went to the range and get some shots fired of the ammo I'm using. I have two high standard pistols. A 104 citation and a 103 tournament that has a Victor barrel on it. Tried them bolth out to see what one I should shoot. Bolth shot the ammo well but the 103 grouped a little tighter so it won out. I should do ok, but I'm sure the mental aspect of the unknown will effect my scores.
Please put your "scores" out of your mind for the first few matches. It is now, and always will be a detriment to your shooting skills. At this point, you're trying to develop shooting skills, not win matches.
After some seasoned practice, you'll know and feel when the shot is good or not without looking at the target. For now, forget each shot as soon as it is downrange- "Fugetaboutit"! The next shot is the only one that should be on your mind, as it's the only one you have control over.
I retired my HS Series 103 Sharpshooter when a Hammerli 215 came my way. Also have a Texas Victor, but the slant grip Sharpshooter, with a Volquartsen barrel, is a joy to shoot.
Ya I know. And I'm pretty good about just making each shot its own, and not sweat the past.
Ya I really like the slant grip HS pistols. They just feel right to me. Dad shot with the same gear 40+ years ago. It will be nice to get the gear back to the line with me pulling the trigger this time!
Well the first match is in the books!!
Had a great time. I got to meet Jwax, and him, and everyone else went out of their way to make me feel welcome. Many tips, and tricks were coming my way all day. and I was never made to feel like I had a dumb question when I asked.
The bad... Well I was sick as a dog most of last week. Not being able to really eat much, and a lot of time down for the count. That left me pretty weak and tired. I really felt it the second match. Lots of sight wobble I normaly don't have. [first match jitters doesn't help either ] After a break for lunch I was doing better, and I think I shot better. I also forgot to write down my scores... not a huge thing I guess... With all the hubbub it just sliped my mind.
The good.. I learned a LOT!!! After shooting the match, I have a list of things I need to work on, and train to improve. Most of my shots were real high. Could be a sight adjustment.... but I think its me. Ill work on that for sure. I also need to do some more dry firing to work on building the strength, and trigger control. I also want to try different grips. Im running the stock grips and after a bit they were feeling a little thin, and small for my hands.
So I have a lot to work on, and I cant wait till my next match!! Any new guy reading this, all I can tell you is to jump in and give it a try.. Many helpful people at the matches will help you if your not sure what your doing!!!
Knowing your scores is a mistake for most shooters. Wait for the match results to come out.

Ya I wasn't that worried about the scores. I was more interested in seeing where the placement was. A lot of pasters got used. I did have at least one target where I did not need a paster.... I was happy with that.
One good thing was the old High standard with countless thousands of rounds through it worked awesome, and without a hiccup!! The old girl is almost ready for a AARP card and still trucks along!
s1120 wrote: Well the first match is in the books!!
Yup, this mirrors my experience as well - the newbies are often offered a lot of advice by the old hands.
You might actually shoot better while sick. I find that generally the case for me -- my physical misery tends to mute all the other thoughts in my head and I seem to focus more on the fundamentals of shooting well. I've won matches while coughing and sniffling between shots/strings (and even once while my arm and leg were still 'dripping' from huge patches of road rash from crashing on my bicycle the day before).
s1120 wrote: After a break for lunch I was doing better, and I think I shot better.
Nutrition definitely matters - bring some snacks and water bottles (and maybe even a small cooler) to your next match; keep them nearby.
s1120 wrote: I also forgot to write down my scores... not a huge thing I guess... With all the hubbub it just sliped my mind.
Not really a big thing, but it's good to know at least whether the scores you're adding up match the ones that your scorer is putting on your scorecard. Also, you can figure out your aggregate scores and get a sense of how you shot (compared to yourself in past matches...now that you have a match under your belt).

It definitely sounds like you had fun and learned a lot. I can't wait to read your next match report!
More matches the better Paul! I think the next Castleton is Sept. 13/14, but have to check on that.
Duchess County Pistol Association (DCPA) has the NYS match Sept. 7, if you want to make that trip.
Nice to meet you Paul, hope to see you at the next match!
BTW, Castleton will snail mail the final scores for everybody in a week or two, so keep a look out for that!
i figured they might do that. they emailed me for my address.
dont think i can pull off the duchess county one. my next few weeks are packed!!! i am going to try to fit in the castlton one.
i have enough ammo for one more match, and some training this year. hoping the 22 crisis eases befor next year so i can re stock up.

The imaging of food has changed significantly over the course of the last century. By imaging, I refer to the development of aesthetic idealizations and portrayals of food as elements in a carefully constructed narrative. Our culture is defined by visual processing of images designed to infiltrate the conscious with underlying messages. These messages create discourses about the object in question, which the object itself helps to create. Within the context of the industrial food system, the manipulation of imaging of food creates false pretenses that destroy the connection between the individual and food. The inaccessibility of images marks a misunderstanding about industrial food that allows us to become ignorant of the signals images send us. The industrial narrative of food derives from the modern promise of progress. Images of food can be used to craft industrial standards, create art, persuade us to consume more, and to create truths in representations that are ultimately designed to fail us. By creating and attaching images to food, we are assigning it an identity constructed on the foundation of false representation and discourse. Why are modern images of food so abstract and far from our realities as contemporary consumers? The hidden truth behind the industrial narrative of food is this: The deeply rooted, false imaging of food that controls markets of today stems from a historically broken connection between the individual and food.
Friedrich Nietzsche's perspective on imaging and the creation of truth is useful in the initial understanding of how and why these elements of discourse are formed. According to Nietzsche, images are metaphorical ideations that are processed through nerves and interpreted visually. Images first manifest as naked stimulus in the brain as our conscious experiences of the world bombard us with stimuli. If we are in constant contact with images, our brains receive them and attach metaphorical attachments to them. We learn to prefer certain images over others due to the conditioning of our brains in seeing repetitive images that are associated with positive stimuli we've previously experienced. This pattern has created a culture of visual stimulation that drives our need for visual pleasure, thus making the creation of industrial images so successful. But in fact, the truths that we conjure are really ambiguities that lie within an object. Similarly, Michael Foucault's discussion on discourse weaves a parallel path of creation. Sara Mills's Discourse explores Foucault's idea of truth that echoes Nietzsche: "Truth is of the world; it is produced there by virtue of multiple constraints… Each society has its regime of truth, its 'general politics' of truth: that is the types of discourse it harbors and causes to function as true" (Mills 18). Power's role in discourse shapes the ability to keep a truth in place. "Power is dispersed throughout social relations" and "it produces possible forms of behavior as well as restricting behavior" (Mills 20). The agency to form discourses and to create narratives out of them lies in the hands of those with power. This raises an important question in the understanding of the reigning industrial food industry: Who possesses the power to rewrite narratives and who does not?
The overwhelming influences of the American media and government dictate much of what is created within the discourse of industrial food. The entertainment sector of the media creates representations of food linked to art and identity. For example, the identity of the celebrity chef creates an image of food portrayed as an art form to be visually consumed by the viewer. "Chefs are different because they are connected with something that we may get aesthetic pleasure out of and even call art" (Rousseau xvii). The celebrity chef simultaneously creates a relationship with the viewer as well as an image of identity. The food itself becomes secondary, irrelevant to the reality of viewers' lives, leaving a much more impactful mark on the idea of lifestyle. Rachel Ray, for example, holds a great deal of agency over the marketing of lifestyle. Her image creates representations of compatibility with the average, working class American. "Her unaffected girl-next-door style validates the lifestyle choices that many people make, particularly those-like using convenience products-that lie distinctly outside traditionally elite and professional food cultures" (Rousseau 68). Despite Ray's significant affluence and success that places her in the top earning margin of American workers, her viewers are nonetheless enchanted by her image supported by the illusion of ease in her marketed "30 Minute Meals." The modern constraints put on the individual place emphasis on the necessity of time in a world lacking adequate time to carry out the responsibilities of the default contemporary role. Ray's image creates the illusion of time through her meals crafted on television, somehow permeating the notion of "saving time" to the viewer. Although time and convenience are crucial to Ray's brand, the fact that her media is being consumed through the screens of televisions creates another sense hypocrisy. "The central feature of television is not that we consume its images, but that it consumes our time" (Rousseau 67). Viewers gain a sense of satisfaction in consuming the visual tools Ray provides in order to be a more successful participant in fast-paced modern life. "But the distraction she provides is all the more powerful because it parades as real life, an effect which is jointly achieved by the reality component of many food shows and the fact that these representations can and do influence the way people eat and behave" (Rousseau 69). Ultimately, Ray and other celebrity chefs hold the power to craft whatever narratives about food they wish to within the realm of media consumption. By giving viewers the ideal identity, a need to spend and consume is initiated in order to achieve such lifestyles. Celebrity chefs pride themselves on the selling point of their images of not only their identities, but the food that is comprised of their identity. Identities created by images are essential in the process of selling food to consumers. Visually, consumers are manipulated to buy industrial foods. The outside forces are able to control the consumer due to the individual's lack of agency left in the wake of modernity. Before industrial foods conquered the supermarket, the relationship between the individual and food looked very different.
In the pre-industrial agricultural landscape of the United States, farmers were deeply connected to their crops and land. The Industrial Revolution of the 19th century and the First World War altered agriculture by mechanizing its elements in order to make processes more efficient. "The chemical fertilizer industry (along with that of pesticides, which are based on poison gases developed for the war) is the product of the government's effort to convert its war machine to peacetime purposes" (Pollan 41). By synthesizing nitrogen that was once utilized in the process of bomb-making, fertilizer became cheaper and more useful than ever to the modern American farmer. A shift in social structures marked new habits concerning food, as well. The migration of bodies from the countryside to urban areas altered socioeconomics and brought more consumers to the forefront of the burgeoning economy. The pastoral life of primitivism once championed by Romantics became a landscape of soot and smog that modernists like T.S. Eliot lamented over in modern poetry. Most importantly, the post-war culture of food gave rise to a new modern era of freedom of choice due to lack of scarcity. Technology delivered the ultimate gift for the industrial food system: abundance of capital. "Perhaps the central element of modernization- and, indeed, a crucial factor in all the facets of modernity that I will highlight- is the rise of mature capitalism" (Singer 21). With the rise of capitalism came changes such as "rapid urbanization and population growth, new technologies and transportations, and new forms of mass communication" (Singer 21). These modern advances stemming from mature capitalism evolved into elements of a neoliberal construct. According to Singer, "Modern capitalism redefined the basic social unit from the group to the individual" (32). In this way, more responsibility, or "neoliberal responsibilization," is put on the individual to consume and act in accordance to individual needs (Guthman 193). The term "neoliberal" is applicable to such advancements made in the age of mature capitalism because they serve to control and dictate actions of consumers. Many technologies arising from this age pose as "purchasable solutions" that enter into a cycle of commodification designed to keep the consumer spending more money (Guthman 191). The USDA, for example, is another organization that holds agency to create neoliberal narratives of food and nutrition. If we look at the "food pyramid" designed by the USDA to educate the public about healthy sectoring of diet, we can see that its image and design has changed along with the current narrative in place, usually based on the current scientific climate and research. Most recently, the image of the USDA's food pyramid has been replaced with the image of a plate divided into four sectors with an additional outside sector of dairy. The evolution of images is a testament to the evolution of power within the discourse of industrial food. Images are used to persuade the consumer to purchase and consume what is labeled as nutritious for the body. The lost connection between the individual and food is replaced with an image, a guide to navigate the aimlessness of "the now" that was once connected to the individual.
To combat the sense of aimlessness, the key role of neoliberal imaging in the industrial food system is to harness the power of nostalgia and genetic memory that once revolved around an intricate system of primitive food practices. Images harness this power and drive the marketing of specific varieties of mass-produced food that support the structure of the industrial food system. For example, the creation of Betty Crocker's image in 1921 defined the branding of General Mill's food merchandise. A fictional character characterized by a smiling, early forties-aged woman evolved over the years as American culture changed. Betty Crocker's iconic status in the lives of American housewives is built upon a historical foundation of "simultaneous loneliness and false intimacy" according to page 47 of Pamela Rossi-Keen's "A Taste of America's Story through Finding Betty Crocker. "Such a relationship allowed for an identity construction- or identity rejection (at least a theoretical one)- for the homemaker" (Rossi-Keen 48). By creating identities between food and the consumer, a representation of a relationship is produced. "Brand loyalty" is one concept that arises from the relationship of the consumer and product. In the early case of Betty Crocker, the image of her identity provided a level of comfort for the disillusioned housewife and became a critical success in the marketing of food images. Culturally, the crafting of a false identity greatly impacted the constrained images of roles women played in the early twentieth century. These representations not only extended themselves to the reworking of the individual identity, but the identity of one's landscape, as well.
Pastoral fetishism permeates through modern images of food, crafting pastoral identities that consumers live vicariously through. Common processed foods that are manufactured through technologies like genetic modification are identified by images of animals, sunshine, and blue skies. The call to nature that is seen through images triggers an innate desire of the individual to revert back to primitivism. Technology has allowed for abundance and surplus of food that seems to conjure a sense of ultimate freedom from the binds of nature. Yet, pastoralism in itself possessed a definitive sense of freedom based on the wild of the land. Pastoralists were not bound by societal constraints or practices that dictated their lifestyles. "In societies that rely on gathering and hunting for their food, neither land nor wild animals can be claimed as the property of any one individual" (Sayre 3). An immense degree of freedom was held within the American pastoralist to move freely about the land, living in symbiotic bliss with nature. The modern individual is constrained by the freedom of the supermarket. Choices limit the imagination, and images of pastoralism are one of the few ways in which primitive desires are provoked, initiating purchases to compensate for this loss. The deeply rooted cultural practices of food have been forsaken. In their places remain solutions designed to subdue the consumer.
Another way to discuss neoliberal imaging of food is to expose its hypocritical technologies; in the wake of the industrial revolution and initial manipulations of images, new neoliberal technologies continue to control the discourse of faith in progress. As we've previously touched on, the realm of government institutions and science dictates the discourse of food imaging. Technological practices paradoxically create physical images of food that contradict the images created by its discourse. To illustrate this, we can use hyperspectral imaging, a neoliberal technology designed to break down and image the nutritional content of food, as a means to show the impact of the way in which the industrial food system perceives food itself as well as nutrition. The scientific community describes hyperspectral imaging as "one of the most powerful and fastest-growing non-destructive tools for food quality analysis and control" (Sun xiii). Yet, the image of nutrition captured by an infrared picture is vastly different than the image of a lush green valley on a container of a product like Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing. Quality assessment and assurance are of driving importance behind the motivation to promote hyperspectral imaging. Through quality assurance of a product's safety, "it encourages loyalty in consumers and results in the expanding market share" (Sun 4). The thinly veiled promise of capitalism covers the scientific rhetoric of technologies like hyperspectral imaging. Behind the veil, the actual physical process of the imaging begins with a conveyor belt filled with food products. The belt passes underneath the hyperspectral camera, and the images are transferred to computers as small, miscellaneously colored infrared shapes. The database detects the individually colored images and processes their nutritional content based on color. For example, three different types of cookies pass underneath a hyperspectral camera. The camera is able to detect the variations in fat content of the cookies and transfers the data to the computer. This type of technology utilized by the food industry poses as a scientific solution to provide more accurate nutritional information to a society plagued with one of the world's highest rates of obesity. Technologies like hyperspectral imaging ignore the underlying issues behind public nutritional issues because the technologies themselves are neoliberal solutions that sustain not only the industrial food industry, but the construct of modern capitalism itself. Technologies of our "faith-in-progress" era are designed to keep us in the dark. The real issues are invisible, shrouded behind commoditized solutions with satisfyingly numbing images attached to them. The reality of imaging lies within small efforts taken on by activist organizations whose missions are to expose the truth behind industrial food imaging. As a result, smaller initiatives are beginning to expose the main discourse of the disillusive reality of imaged foods.
Animal right's organizations like PETA, although possessing their own individual agendas, work to illustrate a different reality of food through images labeled as the truth. Through use of graphic imaging to shed light on the abuses of industrial farm animals, viewers are confronted with a reality that goes against the narrative that has been normalized in their lives as consumers. "Such tactics assume the shock or surprise of violating norms of appropriateness allows the message to get the audience's attention and have them attend to the pertinent message" (Scudder 1). In a 2007 study of the effectiveness of PETA's use of graphic imagery, it was reported, "that PETA's attack message against abuses at corporate pig farms was effective in eroding the credibility of the corporate food-industry raising animals for consumption" (Scudder 1). Yet, "It is unclear, however, whether the use of negative graphic imagery resonates with the public to change attitudes" (Scudder 1). While images may expose or attempt to rewrite truths, the overall attitude and climate of reality may remain unchanged. Whether this stems from the power of discourse preventing change in attitude, it is unclear but may stand as a substantiated theory.
The severed connection between the individual and food is responsible for the neoliberal discourse of industrial food. Connotative images attached to food represent the idealized identities that subconsciously transport the consumer back to a time of pastoralism and primitivism. Modernity has rewritten the narrative of food. Over the course of the twentieth century and onward, food became conquered, economic, and lost all cultural connections to intimacy. Images of pastoral scenes on packaging of products hide consumers from the reality of its manufactured and processed contents. Yet, it's the visual satisfaction of the images that blind the consumer into believing a truth designed to coerce and subdue the neoliberal mind. The narrative of industrial food must be performed and practiced in order to keep its sustained power over consumers. This practice of structure naturalizes the creation of its truths. The only way to revert back to primitivism is to consciously reject the climate of neoliberal practice, yet this is nearly impossible to abandon completely as an active consumer. In order to survive, we must consume. However, the conscious understanding of the images that we visualize serves as a tool against the systematic practices of neoliberal imaging, perhaps offering the modern consumer a small victory of agency.

Very often in our chess games we face closed positions with a deep strategical character. In most cases one side has a large space advantage while the other's side pieces are cramped.
Defending such positions is not an easy task. However, winning them is just as difficult.
Play on both flanks – Or it can also mean, to create simultaneous attacks. The principle of the second weakness makes your opponent defend two targets at the same time. With less space, it's more difficult for him to switch pieces from one side to another.
Consider a piece sacrifice to breakthrough – This is perhaps the most difficult point. Many times, the road to victory involves a piece sacrifice for just a couple of pawns in order to break the opponent's fortress. This idea is difficult from a psychological point of view. For example, a player who has a comfortable position in which he can do almost anything does not always see the need to sacrifice a piece for pawns. Instead, he will look for a cleaner way to win the game, a way that doesn't always exist.
Pawn ruptures – Pawn breaks are always an efficient way to open files or diagonals into the opponent's territory.
After just 25 moves, white has obtained a large space advantage. Black is totally cramped and without any chance for counterplay. Note how white has two pawn ruptures that he can play anytime he want, one on each flank (h3-h4 and b2-b4). My opponent put severe pressure on black's position but in the end failed to win. Possibly, due to the lack of aggressively.
The position is very different from my game against Shishkin. However, there are a few similar characteristics. For example, white has potential pawn ruptures on both wings and can create great pressure. Black is also without any counterplay and can only sit and wait for white's pieces to advance. The Cuban World Champion shows the right technique to exploit this advantage to the maximum profit.
The opening has not gone too well for black. He has given up his bishop without creating any weakness in white's pawn structure and he lacks space. It is important to mention the bishop pair, as everything is connected. Black lacks space and counterplay. To obtain that, he would need to open up the position but then white's bishops would become active. The situation is not easy at all for black.
White on the other hand, has a wide choice of plans. He has a rupture on the queenside and another on the kingside. Korchnoi executed both with perfect timing and continued to gain more space, leaving black without air to breathe. A really instructive game that we advise our readers to look closely at.
We hope our readers have learned more about the use of the space advantage after reading this article and going through the examples. Remember that these positions have to be played slowly, improving little by little and keeping the opponent's chances reduced to a minimum.

Little Women (A Multicultural Transposition)
December 5, 2018 December 12, 2018 Richard Hicks	Leave a comment
Inspired by Louisa May Alcott's classic American novel published in 1869, the play Little Women (A Multicultural Transposition) features four sisters and their Japanese American family living in post-World War II Los Angeles. Playwright Velina Hasu Houston keeps the names and personalities of the original March sisters—Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy—but in this tale, they are the Mayeda sisters. The novel and play have noticeable parallels, with the March and Mayeda families facing many of the same types of troubles. However, Houston's transposition adds a dimension of racial prejudice that the March family never had to consider.
The Mayeda sisters and their mother, Marmee, move in with their Aunt Ming after spending time during the war in an American concentration camp in Colorado. Their father, Makoto, is a war hero, but he returned from the war with post-traumatic stress disorder and a drinking problem. In the recently integrated Los Angeles neighborhood to which they return, they find much-appreciated diversity in their African American neighbor, Mr. Lawrence, who is a retired hematologist, and his half-Italian grandson, Laurie. Aunt Ming, however, feels that her "old money" status is above the "new money" status of her new neighbors. Thus, Houston reveals how prejudice is present even among different minorities that have each had injustice wrought upon them.
Completing Houston's diverse cast are Mr. Bhat, Laurie's tutor from Calcutta, and Professor Briones from Mexico City, Jo meets on her journey to New York in act two of the play. The supporting male characters in the play including Laurie, Mr. Bhat, and Professor Briones, each take an interest in one of the Mayeda sisters. However, the drama is heightened when Beth, the shyest of the four, has an unfortunate accident, which sends the whole family into a panic. The audience will remain captivated throughout the conflict, climax, and conclusion of the play.
There have been many adaptations of Alcott's Little Women, but Houston's depiction of the classic is unlike any other. This time period was significant for Japanese Americans and many others seeking to overcome the racial prejudices of World War II. Houston successfully depicts how the story of Little Women can be any family's story, and yet in this particular version, there's much more being said about the simmering social strife that is right beneath the surface.
