Дариу̀с Мийо̀ () е френски композитор. Произведенията му (повече от 400) са по-специално известни със своята политоналност и влияние от джаза. Той пише и филмова музика.

Биография
Дариус Мийо произхожда от заможно еврейско семейство от Марсилия, където е роден на 4 септември 1892 година. Както географския, така и религиозния му произход оказва, според негови думи, силно влияние върху неговата личност.

Той започва на осем години своето систематично музикално образование с уроци по цигулка. Неговите първи музикални композиции са от 1905 г. През 1909 г. продължава с обучението си по цигулка в Парижката консерватория, но прекъсва след три години за да композира. Той учи при Андре Жедалж (контрапункт, композиция), Шарл-Мари Видор (композиция) и Венсан д'Енди (дирижиране). В курсовете при Жедалж се запознава с Артур Онегер и Жак Ибер. От това време той пише песни по стихотворения на съвременни френски поети и първата си опера (La brebis égarée, 1910 – 1915 г.).

През 1912 г. Дариус Мийо се запознава с поета Пол Клодел, в резултат на което те се свързват чрез доживотно приятелство и сътрудничество. Когато през 1916 г. Клодел е изпратен в тогавашната бразилска столица Рио де Жанейро като френски посланик, Мийо, който е освободен от военна служба през първата световна война, го придружава като аташе в Южна Америка. Там се запознава с бразилския фолклор и популярна музика, които повлияват силно неговата музика в следващите години. През 1918 г. той се завръща във Франция. Мийо поддържа контакт с кръга около Жан Кокто и Ерик Сати и се присъединява към Групата на шестимата. Неговите композиции му донасят първи успехи, но също така и скандали. През 1925 г. се жени за своята братовчедка Мадлен.

След началото на Втората световна война Мийо емигрира със съпругата си в Съединените щати и преподава композиция в Колежа "Милс" в Оукланд до 1971 г. След края на войната поема допълнително една група по композиция в консерваторията в Париж (до 1972 г.). Мийо преподава след това с годишна смяна на двата континента. Неговите лекции се посещават от различни музиканти като джаз музиканта Дейв Брубек, Стив Райх, симфониста Алън Питърсън и авангардистите Карлхайнц Щокхаузен, Лари Остин и Янис Ксенакис.

Feed Your Head: San Francisco's Psychedelic Rock Revolution: From the Acid Tests to Altamont (Paperback)
Blair Jackson (author)
Paperback Published: 01/08/2011

In the mid- and late 1960s, San Francisco was the epicentre of a cultural and musical revolution which is still reverberating to this day. It was the place where the carefully cultivated American Dream of an ever-expanding conformist commercial culture slammed headlong into the day-glo visions and utopian ideals of a young generation that suddenly did not want to play by the old rules, but instead wanted to create something bold, beautiful and new. The musical soundtrack for the counterculture that formed in Haight-Ashbury (and in other cities across the country) was also startlingly new and different - it took elements of rock 'n' roll, folk, blues, jazz, Indian and seemingly a hundred other influences, and combined them in a rich psychedelic stew that was unlike anything the world had ever heard before. "Feed Your Head! San Francisco's Psychedelic Rock Revolution: From the Acid Tests to Altamont" traces the rise of the Bay Area music underground through five of the original bands: Jefferson Airplane, Grateful Dead, Quicksilver Messenger Service, Big Brother & the Holding Company/Janis Joplin and Country Joe & the Fish. Using the popular 'day-by-day' format of previous Jawbone titles, author Blair Jackson offers a compelling look at not only the work of those seminal bands during that important period, but also other important groups in the surrounding scene, and broader cultural themes including the spread of psychedelic drugs, youth's resistance to the War in Vietnam, and the 'straight' world's response to the hippie revolution. "Feed Your Head" is a detailed, colourful, and occasionally funny book that is certain to appeal to fans of San Francisco rock, or the '60s in general.

The most important thing that you can do for your swimming pool is to maintain proper water chemistry levels. You can do these two ways. One – Bring a sample of water to your local Bioguard dealer to have a computerized water analysis done or Two – Have a quality test kit that can accurately diagnose what is in your water from the comforts of your backyard.
The test kits we recommend are the Taylor K-2006 and Taylor K-2006C. The Taylor K-2006 is for residential use. The Taylor K-2006C is for commercial use. Both kits test Free Chlorine and Combined Chlorine, using the FAS-DPD titration test, as well as pH, Total Alkalinity, Calcium Hardness, and Cyanuric Acid.
As a side note, the Taylor test kit is also used by the State of Nebraska Health Inspector to test every single commercial pool. That's how you know it's a quality test kit that you can depend on.
The FAS-DPD chlorine test is especially important, since it is the only commonly available chlorine test that can measure FC (free chlorine) levels above 10 reliably. It is accurate enough to measure overnight FC (free chlorine) loss, which is critical when you have an algae bloom and need to shock your pool to kill it.
The Taylor K-2006 and K-2006C are available at your local Taylor dealer. No matter which kit you buy, reagents can also be purchased when you are running low.
For about the price of one month's pool service, you can learn what your pool needs to be safe. Even if you do not maintain your pool yourself, the ability to know what the pool needs in the time between your pool techs visit is critical to a safe pool. A good test kit is cheap insurance when you are providing a place for your friends and family to spend a summer afternoon!


When Robin Harder moved to San Antonio, Texas, she joined several running Meetups. In 2013, when three foot surgeries over the course of a year forced her to take a running hiatus, Robin decided to look for a different kind of group—this time, one for veterans. Sergeant First Class Harder is an active duty soldier—she's served in the Army for almost 20 years.
Robin's not sure what exactly the future holds for her Meetup, but she's excited to find out. "My members are pushing me to make it a nonprofit," she reports. As for the more immediate future, there's plenty to focus on with Veteran's Day just around the corner. On Friday, the Meetup volunteered at a Veteran's Stand Down event for homeless veterans in San Antonio. The next day, they marched in San Antonio's Veteran's Day Parade. This Veteran's Day holds special significance for Robin—it'll be her last in active duty. She's retiring this year, to stay home with her two sons.

Order of the Chhattisgarh High Court regarding healthcare facilities available in Chhattisgarh to tackle COVID-19, 22/04/2021
Order of the Chhattisgarh High Court in the matter of Suo Moto WP (PIL) Vs State of Chhattisgarh & Others dated 22/04/2021.
The petitioner has requested that as there is paucity of beds in almost all the government and private hospitals, interference is necessary and direction must be given to the Railways to make available sufficient number of medical coaches for treating the patients. The court has been informed that even though the South East Central Railway, Bilaspur has arranged as many as 111 special medical coaches, but it is not being put to use and are lying stranded. It is pointed out that though no oxygen facilities are available, it could be facilitated and be put to use.
The High Court said that the need of the hour is to have concerted action by all the stakeholders, rising to the occasion and in extending hands to the public falling prey to the pandemic. The counsel for the Railways informed the court that all cooperation would be extended from the part of the Railways to make available the Special Medical Coaches, once a proper requisition is made by the nodal officer of the state to the nodal officer of the Railways. The state of Chhattisgarh has been directed to file a proper requisition through the nodal officer of the state to the nodal officer of the Railways for allotment of the special medical coaches.

"In New Jersey's vulnerable communities such as Bridgeton and Newark, up to 40% of the population is under the age of 18. Youth bring a different perspective about their health and their community than adults," explained Bob Atkins, PhD, RN, FAAN, director of NJHI.
In New Jersey's vulnerable communities such as Bridgeton and Newark, up to 40% of the population is under the age of 18. Youth bring a different perspective about their health and their community than adults.
Through NJHI: Next Generation Community Leaders, 10 grants of $200,000 each have been awarded to organizations over three years to develop the youths' civic engagement skills, involve them in meaningful summer employment, and help them participate in an alumni network that will be the foundation for their future leadership endeavors. Each grantee will form two teams of local youth, mentor them in leadership and population health issues, and facilitate the teams' work. The youth teams will design and implement projects that address the unique health needs of their community.
Throughout the grant period, each grantee will identify opportunities to further engage the youth in leadership roles, perhaps establishing youth advisory boards or inviting the youth teams to report on their work at city council meetings. NJHI will encourage the youth to share their progress and network during statewide youth convenings.
o Project Title: Lead A.C.
Civic and government leaders, health and human services officials, and universities from the various communities will also be directly involved with educating the youth participants. Mayor Ras Baraka is among those who will be working directly with the selected youth in Newark, as will Mayor Al Kelly in Bridgeton.
"This work will enable young people to acquire a sophisticated understanding of the barriers to health they see impacting their families, friends and neighbors and provide the resources to affect meaningful, sustainable, change both now and in the future," said Atkins.
To learn more about the NJHI: Next Generation Community Leaders initiative, visit njhi.org and participate in the conversation online with the hashtag #NJLeaders2030. In 2030, the youth participating in NJHI: Next Generation Community Leaders will be 29-31 years old, poised to expand their impact as effective leaders, and one election cycle away from meeting the minimum age requirement for a U.S. presidential bid.

Q: Google Chrome Omnibar—Prioritize Bookmarks Over Search Suggestions
*

*My hands have a tremor that make it difficult for me to use a mouse precisely. [Not impossible, but I'm clumsy enough with the pointer, that I mostly just use the keyboard.]

*For that reason, when browsing the Web, I use a variety of bookmarklets and/or Chrome extensions that let me conveniently avoid a lot of mouse usage.

*For example, I have a bookmarklet named "star-me" that will "star" a project on GitHub without my making 2–3 attempts to click that star.  I access it by pressing «Command-L» (to give focus to Chrome's address bar or "Omnibox"), then typing "star-me" then «ENTER».  Well, that's what I want to do. Instead, of picking my exactly-matching bookmark name, my Omnibox has five or six rows of search suggestions and then my bookmark.  So, my actual procedure is «Command-L», "star-me", «Control-N» 5–6 times, then «ENTER».
My question: is there a way to prioritize matching bookmark names over search suggestions?  I like the search suggestions, but I find it annoying that these you might have meant
these approximate/partial matches are listed before the exactly-matching bookmark names I type.

Karen Finley: Venus in Retrograde
All Events, Arts, Visual Arts / By Bryan Barnes
UMBC's Department of Visual Arts presents Venus in Retrograde by celebrated performance artist Karen Finley. The performance examines loss of love, dignity, and humanity, and issues a call to beat back with an exquisite heart. Against a backdrop of film projections, Finley narrates a poetic call to action in resistance to today's times. The performance is in two parts. In Part One, Grabbing Pussy, Finley considers embodiment and the invasion of the self, featuring selections from her provocative recent book of the same name. In Part Two, Parts Known — the political is personal, the personal is political — she examines the price and pain of personal tragedy amidst a political landscape of psychic dimensions.
In Grabbing Pussy, against a sequence of opening floral abstractions, Finley offers a breathless cascade of a poetic narrative that lays bare the psychosexual obsessions that have burst to the surface of today's American politics. With a biting engagement that alternates between laughter and rage, at times both shocking and disturbing, the performance illustrates the psychic splitting of consciousness. Finley examines not only the twisted Shakespearean dynamics that arise when libidos and loyalties clash, but also the cruelties and trauma of navigating personal agency amidst the torrents of assault disguised, openly, as authority played out publicly and privately through aggressions of public policy on the parts of figures like Donald Trump, Harvey Weinstein, and others. The aggression of intimacy, the disparity of gender, the escalation of white nationalist supremacy, are expressed through Finley's raucous candor.
In Parts Known, Finley responds to the horrific separation of families at the border and the psychic trauma of people kept in cages and children left behind, amidst backgrounds of celebrity suicides such as Anthony Bourdain's and Kate Spade's and the children they left. These celebrity crisis events act as transference of despair within white neoliberalism, occupying a space for entitled victimization far from the real issues. Honoring the struggle and strength of resistance of past and current cultural movements can inspire us to not be disempowered. For we carry a wisdom and grace of how to move forward with the experience of the activism of the past. In particular, Finley will of course embody the recent verbal attacks on Baltimore and call upon the inspiration of Baltimore's great legacy of resistance.
Both works, under the title Venus in Retrograde, expand on Finley's career-long pursuit of performativley articulating the injustices committed by the U.S. government and society at large — an undertaking spanning her commentary on the rise of HIV and AIDS in the 1980s and 1990s (We Keep Our Victims Ready), her acting as plaintiff in the National Endowment for the Arts v. Finley after the NEA vetoed her grant in 1990, her criticism of homophobia (Written in Sand), and her work in the areas of reproductive rights, anti-war actions, and public memorials. These narratives, and many more across her body of work, position underrepresented voices and struggles as an always central component to her practice — a commitment as crucial as ever in today's precarious political landscape.
Karen Finley is a performer, artist, writer, musician, poet, teacher and lecturer, and recipient of two Obies, two Bessies, a Guggenheim, and multiple grants from the NEA and NYSCA. In 1990, Finley became an unwilling symbol for the NEA when she, along with Tim Miller, Holly Hughes, and John Fleck, sued the NEA for withdrawing grants on the grounds of indecency. The controversial case went all the way to the Supreme Court. She has toured and exhibited internationally, published eight books, and her art is in the collection of the Centre Pompidou in Paris and the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles, among other places. Finley is a professor in the department of Art and Public Policy at Tisch School of the Arts, New York University.
The performance will be immediately followed by a Q&A discussion with the artist; then a book signing and reception.

Few classic tiki drinks use only gin. The Saturn, created in 1967 and rediscovered by tiki scholar Jeff "Beachbum" Berry, is one such cocktail. It employs Aviation gin—milder than London dry, with a sarsaparilla quality—as well as Falernum, a rum-based liqueur with notes of ginger, lime, and cloves.
Combine ingredients into shaker tin with one cup of crushed ice. Buzz in blender for three seconds. Top with more crushed ice and garnish tropically.

General Hospital Spoilers: Y&R's Jordi Vilasuso REPLACES Steve Burton As Jason Morgan?
By Chandni April 4, 2022
The latest General Hospital speculation reveals that Jordi Vilasuso might replace Steve Burton as Jason Morgan on the ABC soap. Daytime drama fans know that Jordi has left The Young And The Restless. Vilasuso is a great actor, and he might be an interesting recast option for Jason on General Hospital. Why is that? Keep reading to find out.
Long-time GH viewers know that Jason was a fan-favorite character, and let's be honest, we miss him on the show. When Burton left, everyone hoped that he would return. The makers had to let go of Steve because he wouldn't get vaccinated. Although the viewers who watch General Hospital and The Young And The Restless would understand that Jason and Rey are actually a lot alike.
On Y&R, Jordi, aka Rey, plays a character who is always on the right side of the law. He is a man of his words and stands up for the people he loves. Moreover, Vilasuso plays the role of a calm, silent but strong and rational kind of person who speaks more than with his eyes. All of this actually reminds us of Jason Morgan.
In addition, it is high time that Jason returned to the show. And fans feel that Jordi would be a good fit for Steve's role. It is just a matter of time whether the show wants to replace Burton with Vilasuso. But, they do share a great deal in having the same characteristics. Long-time GH viewers know that Jason worked for the mob under Sonny. In addition, he was considered one of the good men in Port Charles.
Moreover, fans loved Steve Burton as Jason, but Vilasuso will put his own spin on the role. The makers did try Drew Cain to pretend to Jason for some time, but it didn't work. Many fans and viewers want Jason back on the soap, so there is a lot of possibilities that fans might also accept Jordi as the new Jason instead of Steve. Undoubtedly, it would be exciting to see Jason return to our screens. There are a lot of exciting storylines and love interests waiting for him on the show.
A lot of interesting storylines are on the deck. Tell us in the comments below, Would you like to see Jordi Vilasuso in the role of Jason Morgan? TV Season & Spoilers will keep you updated with all the news until then. So, stay tuned. General Hospital airs on ABC all weekdays. Don't miss the action.

Too Close for Comfort Heads to Logo; A Day of Grey's, As Series Celebrates Episode #300
Logo is adding another sitcom! The '80s Ted Knight comedy Too Close for Comfort heads to Logo beginning tonight. It airs in a block tonight from 1am-4am (technically early Thursday, Nov. 2).

As with other Logo sitcoms, you'll have to check your listings to see when exactly the series will pop-up, but it will always be in a block format. In the sitcom, when Henry (Ted Knight) and Muriel (Nancy Dussault) have a problem when the downstairs neighbor, Rafkin, a transvestite suddenly dies leaving a vacancy in the townhouse, Jackie (Deborah Van Valkenburgh) and Sara (Lydia Cornell) quickly decide it would be wonderful to move into the apartment. The series aired originally from 1980-86 on ABC and then later in first-run syndication for its final seasons.
ABC celebrates 300 episodes of the long-running hit drama series Grey's Anatomy with a special "Day of Grey's" on Thursday, November 9. The celebration begins the evening prior on Wednesday, November 8, when Jimmy Kimmel Live! hosts Jesse Williams (Dr. Jackson Avery) as a guest in studio. On November 9, Ellen Pompeo begins the day live in studio in New York at Good Morning America and then segues over to Live with Kelly and Ryan where she'll talk about playing the iconic Dr. Meredith Grey for 14 seasons. From there, Ellen will drop by both The View and The Chew. The 300th episode airs at 8:00 p.m. EST that evening. In this special episode, entitled "Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story," a roller-coaster car falls off the track at the county fair and the doctors at Grey Sloan tend to patients who spark memories about ghosts from their past.
Closing out the celebration, Nightline airs an exclusive behind-the-scenes piece on the show with Michael Strahan. Created by Shonda Rhimes, Grey's Anatomy premiered on March 5, 2005. Of the original cast, Ellen Pompeo, Chandra Wilson, James Pickens Jr. and Justin Chambers remain at Grey Sloan Memorial, as the "Core Four."

The 58mm Riina Corner Log Cabin measuring 3.060 x 3.060m, designed for people wishing for a small office in their garden, it benefits from the insulation properties of 58mm logs and double glazing. Featuring double doors and two opening windows.

All Tuin log cabins arrive untreated as standard. Some images depicts how attractive a log cabin looks when it has been painted - A beautiful finishing touch! Tuin offers a great range of options for treating your building including paints, stains and impregnation fluid.
Free shingles for this Riina 58mm Corner Log Cabin are the same quality as our standard range and made by the same manufacturer. However, they are last year's stock and old range colours, also some packaging may not be 'as new'.
Floor Required Finish off your Log Cabin with a floating floor, floor joists are included ONLY if you order a floor with your Riina Log Cabin.
Floor NOT Required 18mm Floor Required (+£148.87) Ideal when using your Riina Log Cabin for storage or as a summerhouse. 26mm Floor Required (+£306.34) Ideal when using your Riina Log Cabin all year around for example as a heavy duty storage solution, home office or craft room.

Hardwood Profiled (+£129.00) When regularly oiled these add an extra level of aesthetic to your Log Cabin. Composite Profiled (+£108.00) Made from recycled plastic that will never rot.
Delivery time for the Riina Log Cabin is 21 working days.
The pre-sales service was second to none. As well as the very informative web site, the support team provided quick and full answers to all our questions.
On delivery day, our driver (a third party) positioned the cabin pack exactly where we wanted it. The cabin now it's finished looks brilliant - both externally, which is now in a beautiful duck egg blue type colour, and internally - the natural wood. I write this review sitting with our log burner heated cabin, which is amazingly warm; the insulation - floor and ceiling is well worth the extra investment.
My wife is now the envy of all her friends having a spectacular place to work and do craft.
Excellent log cabin, delivery was as agreed & delivered by a very helpful driver, the quality of the cabin is by far the best I have seen & I looked at loads from other suppliers. The building went together very easily we only messed up on one log that we put in the wrong place easy enough to remedy. It 3 of us just a day to assemble & make it water tight. Overall a fantastic piece of kit.
Great quality cabin and easy to put together. Huge amount of information re installation in the support section of the Tuin website. If we still had a problem we emailed Tuin and got almost instant responses, even on a Sunday! Would buy from Tuin again and have no hesitation recommending them.
We are very pleased with our summer house. We have only just got it up so not fully finished inside yet as we are going to insulate it and need to get the floor down.
The summer house itself is lovely and looks really nice in our garden. We are really happy with the quality and the price was fantastic. I would recommend them as guests Tuin and would definitely by from them again.
Everyone I spoke to at Tuin were very helpful. Everything from before our purchase to delivery went very smoothly.
Great company and great product, highly recommend.


Day: 21 & 22 March.
Highlight: Goes without saying – ALL OF IT.
Panpipe song of the day: These boots were made for walking – Nancy Sinatra.
Mood: Overwhelmed, Sad to be leaving, Grateful.
My Boots did me proud the last couple of days hiking. Jimmy (my guide) picked me up at 5:30am Monday morning to begin the 4 hour car and train drive to the starting point of our trek Red De Caminos Inka, KM 104.
No words or pictures can relay the absolutely astounding beauty of the inca trail and Macchu Piccu. During the 13kms of often steep incline (plus a few 'flat' bits) we passed through 14 micro-climates and a wealth of flora and fauna including beautiful orchids, the 'forever young' flower, humming birds, a giant centipede and a plant that smells like cheese when it gets wet (imagine the stinkiest French cheese possible and you're there with me).
Jimmy was hilarious company. The amount of knowledge he holds about the trail and the Inca's is beyond belief and he had me completely gripped with his tales of inca traditions and trail facts. My favourite story related to the 'blood tears' flower, with its beautiful red petals symbolising the tears an Incan princess cried for her commoner true love, sent away by her father to fight in a war in order to keep them apart.
We reached , the 'Sun Gate' (the entrance to MP) in around 5 hours of pretty quick paced trekking stopping for lunch on the way (the best sandwich I've ever tasted). We were allotted 7-8 hours to complete the trek, so the hours we had saved was additional time we could spend at our final destination of Macchu Piccu, which sounds like a lot but you could be there for 2 full days and still not have explored it all.
The view from the Sun Gate is one of the most stunningly beautiful I have ever seen. So mind-blowing and overwhelming that of course I burst into tears. From this point you can see the entire complex of MP set against a back drop of mountains and cloud making it feel incredibly mystical.
MP itself has an energy and spirituality that you can physically feel and the temples and the deliberate alignment of key monuments with the sun (for astronomical and agricultural planning purposes) is awe-inspiring. All thoughts of anything 'everyday' completely empty from your head, while your brain tries to wrap itself around the immensity of what the Inca's have built and the skill it took. No machines, just creativity, brute force, engineering knowledge and llamas.
Overnight was spent in Aguas Calientes a nearby town purpose built for MP visits. After a quick pizza and well-earned beer, I headed to bed at 8pm (completely exhausted but totally happy) to get rested for the next days 6am trek.
Today (Tuesday) we did a shorter trek to the Inca Bridge and then Jimmy and I decided to return to Macchu Piccu and to sit for a while just to take it all in. The weather was completely different with mist and clouds covering MP the whole time we were there, creating a very different feel.
After a scenic car and train ride, I arrived back in Cusco, where I am now sat eating something yellow – i'm not quite sure what it is, but I found some chicken in it (of course). An early night again tonight as I have an early flight to Lima tomorrow and then home.
Peru has been one of the best experiences of my life and I am truly sad to be leaving. Trust me I am coming back to explore more of this wonderful country, just as soon as I can afford it!!
I've learned a lot about life, people and myself on this trip. A journey I hope I have shared with you and we can all take a small lesson with us some how.
Glad u got to see MP. Totally amazing right? Not just that they managed to build it but where. So high up! It was definitely one of the highlights when I travelled South Anerica.
Glad u had a great time and managed to get so much you time. Can't wait to catch up soon hopefully!
Well done Gemma, sounds like you had an amazing experience. Loads of you time to reflect and think about what is important. You have memories that will last forever and also impact decisions you make from now on. So proud of you.
What a fab experience. Proud of you… You're like Shirley valentine on acid. Can't wait to see th photos properly when you're back.

Which Doll is the Nice Doll?
Mar 6th, 2009 | By Jonathan Golob | Category: Science and Society, Your Rights
What's so bad about allowing the people of California to vote in favor of a separate-but-equal form of domestic partnership for same-sex couples?
Let's look at the pro-Prop 8 text from the official voters guide:
YES on Proposition 8 does three simple things:
It restores the definition of marriage to what the vast majority of California voters already approved and human history has understood marriage to be.
It overturns the outrageous decision of four activist Supreme Court judges who ignored the will of the people.
It protects our children from being taught in public schools that "same-sex marriage" is the same as traditional marriage.
Proposition 8 protects marriage as an essential institution of society. While death, divorce, or other circumstances may prevent the ideal, the best situation for a child is to be raised by a married mother and father.
The narrow decision of the California Supreme Court isn't just about "live and let live." State law may require teachers to instruct children as young as kindergarteners about marriage. (Education Code § 51890.) If the gay marriage ruling is not overturned, TEACHERS COULD BE REQUIRED to teach young children there is no difference between gay marriage and traditional marriage.
We should not accept a court decision that may result in public schools teaching our kids that gay marriage is okay. That is an issue for parents to discuss with their children according to their own values and beliefs. It shouldn't be forced on us against our will.
Some will try to tell you that Proposition 8 takes away legal rights of gay domestic partnerships. That is false. Proposition 8 DOES NOT take away any of those rights and does not interfere with gays living the lifestyle they choose.
Claiming "the best situation for a child is to be raised by a married mother and father" is false. Children raised in a household led by a same-sex couple are indistinguishable from those raised by heterosexual parents. Study after study has demonstrated this.
Preventing "children from being taught in public schools that 'same-sex marriage' is the same as traditional marriage" however does cause demonstrable harm. Kenneth B. Clark's "Doll Test" tells us that letting proposition-8 stand will damage children who are biologically determined to be attracted to the same sex–telling them their capacity for love is wrong and beneath that of the heterosexual majority.
The mob has no right, in our country, to strip a minority of its dignity. Make a note of it, California Supreme court.

Muhammad breaks world record in 400 hurdles at nationals
by: PAT GRAHAM, Associated Press
Posted: Jul 28, 2019 / 08:30 PM EDT / Updated: Jul 29, 2019 / 04:49 PM EDT
Dalilah Muhammad checks her time after winning the women's 400-meter hurdles at the U.S. Championships athletics meet, Sunday, July 28, 2019, in Des Moines, Iowa. (AP Photo/Charlie Neibergall)
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — The running joke between Dalilah Muhammad and some of her competitors goes like this: She orders the wet conditions.
Because she reigns in the rain.
On a drizzly Sunday night, Muhammad broke a 16-year-old world record in the 400-meter hurdles by finishing in 52.20 seconds at the U.S. championships.
"I'm just shocked," Muhammad said. "I broke the world record."
With puddles formed on the track, the defending Olympic champion sloshed her way around the track to eclipse the mark of 52.34 set by Yuliya Pechonkina of Russia on Aug. 8, 2003.
Running out of the fourth lane, Muhammad didn't let the rain drops deter her. She looked at her time and was almost taken aback.
No way that can be real, right?
Muhammad smiled, briefly put her hands on her hips and then slumped down when her time flashed on the screen at Drake Stadium. Third-place finisher Ashley Spencer emphatically celebrated behind her and teenager Sydney McLaughlin came over to hug Muhammad after finishing second.
It was also lightly raining when Muhammad won the Olympic gold at the 2016 Rio Games. Her competitors might want to start looking at the weather reports for the Tokyo Games, which are a year away.
"Ashley said, 'You're the one that brings the rain,'" the 29-year-old Muhammad cracked. "I don't know what it is."
In workouts, Muhammad has often been on world-record pace.
She put it all together for real.
To think, Muhammad fell in a training session two weeks ago and suffered a mild concussion. She missed three days of workouts to heal.
She lost none of her speed. Then again, the level of the competition brought out the best in her.
Muhammad believes it mark may not last too long. It may even fall again at the world championships this fall in Doha, Qatar. Defending world champion Kori Carter didn't even compete at nationals in the event since she has an automatic bye into worlds.
"That 52 is going to get broke," Muhammad said. "If not by me by the other women."
McLaughlin finished in 52.88.
"It was a really fast race and I could feel the pace being pushed," said McLaughlin, who turns 20 next month. "I'm happy to be a part of a world-record race."
Muhammad's performance stole the show on a big final night.
Soon after, Dezerea Bryant won the 200 in 22.47 seconds.
"I woke up this morning and I'm like, 'I'm not going to be denied,'" Bryant said. "That was my attitude."
Noah Lyles closed out the competition in style by doing a nifty little dance after taking the men's 200 title in 19.78. He held off Christian Coleman and, after crossing the line, shook his rival's hand before breaking off some dance moves.
The 22-year-old Lyles can certainly celebrate.
"Joy? Tons of joy. This is the hardest team to make," said Lyles, who sprayed his hair silver. "The saying is, once you make the U.S. team, you better come away with a medal."
Things to know on the final day of nationals:
COBURN'S DOMINANCE
Reigning world champion Emma Coburn captured her sixth straight national title in the steeplechase (eighth overall). She finished in 9 minutes, 25.63 seconds to narrowly edge Courtney Frerichs. Colleen Quigley was third. With Coburn getting an automatic bye, fourth-place finisher Allie Ostrander also is going to Doha.
Donavan Brazier is celebrating his berth to worlds by taking a fishing trip to Michigan.
"I would've gone either way," he cracked.
The 22-year-old Brazier won the 800 in 1:45.62 to beat Clayton Murphy, his training partner at the Nike Oregon Project. University of Kansas runner was Bryce Hoppel was third.
HOULIHAN'S DOUBLE
Cheered on by a friendly Shelby Houlihan, a Sioux City, Iowa, native, won the 5,000. She also captured the 1,500 crown.
"Iowa strong, baby!" Houlihan said.
NICE 'STACHE
Craig Engels stands out with his mullet even if it may not be the most aerodynamic haircut. He's also rocking a mustache.
"I just wanted to be different," said Engels, who won the men's 1,500 over Matthew Centrowitz. "This is what I landed on."
LOMONG WINS AGAIN
Lopez Lomong won the 5,000 after taking the 10,000 earlier at nationals. He doesn't have the world qualifying standard in the 5,000.
"I'm just going to concentrate a little more on the 10,000 meters and see what I could do on the world stage," Lomong said.
Lomong fled Sudan to avoid a militia group when he was a kid. He lived in a refugee camp run for 10 years and became an American citizen in 2007.
MORE WINNERS
Nick Christie (men's race walk), Katie Burnett (women's race walk), Valarie Allman (discus), Erica Bougard (heptathlon), Ajee Wilson (800), Daniel Roberts (110 hurdles), Chase Ealey (shot put), Ja'Mari Ward (long jump), Jeron Robinson (high jump) and Sandi Morris (pole vault) earned titles.
SHE SAID IT
"It really just gave me more confidence. I can race with every woman, not just in the U.S. but probably in the world," said Athing Mu, who turned 17 and will be a high school senior in New Jersey this fall. She finished fifth in the women's 800 in a personal-best 2:01.17.

ADELAIDE, Australia (AP) — Top-ranked Ash Barty has fine-tuned for the first tennis major of the season by winning her first title on home soil with a 6-2, 7-5 victory over No. 24-ranked Dayana Yastremska in Saturday's Adelaide International final.
The French Open champion had reached finals in Australia before, finishing runner-up twice at the Sydney International after losses to Angelique Kerber in 2018 and Petra Kvitova last year.

MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) — As messages on video boards cautioned Australian Open spectators to "be aware we are expecting a reduction in air quality" Saturday, Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal seemed satisfied that all will be fine at the year's first Grand Slam tournament despite recent days of smoke arriving from wildfires burning 100 or so miles away.
The haze hanging over Melbourne Park lately lightened as Monday's start of main-draw action approaches, but even if things worsen, the owners of a combined 39 major championships were among the players saying they're confident tennis officials will make sure conditions are safe before allowing competition.
HOBART, Australia (AP) — A year after failing to qualify for the Australian Open, Elena Rybakina will enter the season's first major with a seeding and fresh off a title after beating Zhang Shuai 7-6 (7), 6-3 in the Hobart International final on Saturday.
The 20-year-old Rybakina surged more than 150 places in the WTA rankings in 2019 to finish at No. 37. She'll enter the Australian Open, which starts Monday in Melbourne, as the 29th seed after reaching the final at the Shenzhen Open in China to start the 2020 season and capturing her second career title a week later.

EP: Feral Jenny - Bedrooms
Restlessness, post-grad angst, and bedroom blues –
Feral Jenny explores all of the above.
Being at home, like your parent's home, can be more than a little stifling. As someone who was living in their childhood bedroom for the last eight months, there were more than a few times that I found myself regressing into my angsty teen habits. I would unconsciously snap at my parents and even dug up my old Taking Back Sunday and Brand New CDs to listen to as I drove to different states to escape my boredom. I could identify this restless energy while listening to Feral Jenny's Bedrooms EP, which was recorded in her own childhood bedroom. Feral Jenny is the solo project of Jenny Mudarri, who had previously played in the Burlington-based band NANCY. Jenny had only released one EP under Feral Jenny back in 2012, titled Bowie, Too, and noted on bandcamp that the songs were "sound and song-writing experimentation in their infancy". This description sells Feral Jenny short – Bowie, Too is a rough but captivating set of songs about having questionable interactions while eating tacos, being bored with people/life, and of course, David Bowie.
With Bedrooms, Jenny gets a little grittier than her past efforts in Feral Jenny and NANCY. The opening track, "Say the Word", bursts into your ears with a guitar solo fit for Ty Segall or Marnie Stern. The following tracks ride on this energy and Jenny's quick, almost violent guitar riffs seem to hit sonic boundaries. There's an urgency in both the music and Jenny's lyrics on songs like "Law & Order" and "You Let Me Fall", even though snippets of sentences get buried underneath the fuzzy guitars. When Jenny first sent me Bedrooms she mentioned that the songs were about "deadbeats, dependence, depression, and other de-words". The upbeat nature of the songs might seem to invalidate this statement, but if you really listen, you can feel the uneasiness that saturates Bedrooms. Is this person wasting my time? Where do I go from here? When will I have enough time? These are the kind of questions Jenny asks (and I've been asking myself since I graduated) on the six songs on Bedrooms. The album concludes on a sweet note with the slowed down "Gone Away", leaving you think that even if we don't have the answers yet, we'll all figure it out.

How to enable root login over SSH on FreeBSD 8.2 – Life in apps, os's and code!
Unlike many linux distributions FreeBSD by default disables 'root' login over SSH (at least it does with FreeBSD 8.2), If you do need to enable remote root logins over SSH this simple blog post will show you what you need to do; the more secure way of gaining remote admin access to your server would ideally be logging in as an alternative user and then using SUDO to perform any administrative tasks.
Basically you should have removed the hash '#' from the start of the line (uncomment the line basically) and then change 'no' to 'yes', save the file and then restart the SSH daemon like so..
…and your done, you should now be able to login as 'root' over SSH on your FreeBSD server!

Mindkiller is a 1982  science fiction novel by American writer Spider Robinson. The novel, set in the late 1980s (re-edited later to begin in 2006), explores the social implications of technologies to manipulate the brain, beginning with wireheading, the use of electric current to stimulate the pleasure center of the brain in order to achieve a narcotic high.

The novel follows three central characters: Karen Scholz, a young woman who has attempted suicide by permanent wireheading, the constant use of which overrides desires for food and drink; Norman Kent, a college professor, whose life is turned into a quest when his sister is abducted by a powerful authority; and Joe Templeton, a high-tech burglar, who has lost his memory after an accident during wartime.

The novel incorporates as its second chapter a slightly modified version of his short story "God Is an Iron" (first published in the May 1979 issue of Omni), a social commentary on the nature of addiction and addictive personalities built on wireheading.

The novel is unusual in its use of point of view, in a fashion similar to that of Robinson's mentor Robert A. Heinlein's novel The Number of the Beast.

Sequel stories

An independent sequel, Time Pressure, is set in 1974 and concerns the later discovery of a method of limited time travel by the protagonists of Mindkiller, though this connection may not be obvious to the casual reader until late in the novel. Baen Books has published these two novels, along with a third book in the series, Lifehouse, as an omnibus volume under the title The Lifehouse Trilogy.

Reception
Dave Langford reviewed Mindkiller for White Dwarf #71, and stated that "One can't help suspecting that this over-intensity is meant to distract you from the dodgy coincidences and out-of character behaviour required to drive the plot.. . not so much Spider as Heath Robinson."
