Salon: Tonje Bøe Birkeland and Mircea Nicolae
Tonje Bøe Birkeland will discuss her ongoing project Tuva Tengel (1901-1985): Letters from Mongolia and the parallels that exist between her own experiences of the landscape and the character's adventures.
The meeting between a constructed character, a visual artist and a landscape is put on stage, and the constructed and the physical meet on the border between fiction and reality.
Mircea Nicolae will present the production process of his Romanian Kiosk Company project from 2010, which provides the viewer with an in-depth explanation of the social, cultural and historical context of the city of Bucharest, Romania in the last 50 years. He will illustrate the conceptual, material and technical transformations that the project went through before it was completed. The project transitioned from an urban photography research project to a series of scale models and finally to a sculptural installation accompanied by a film.

Brooklyn Commons, a discussion series this winter and spring at ISCP, presents intellectual and artistic pairings between the established Brooklyn-based artist community and ISCP residents. This series puts artists in conversation who have not shared a dialogue in the past and focuses on the vibrant and diverse cultural practitioners living and working in Brooklyn, both long- and short-term.
On February 19th, Sharon Hayes and Laura Horelli will discuss the role of documentary practices in relation to language, politics and the intersection of public and private domains. In different ways, both artists collapse time periods by locating the individual voice in historical and political images. Hayes' work moves between multiple mediums–video, performance, installation–in an ongoing investigation into the interrelation between history, politics and speech. She employs conceptual and methodological approaches borrowed from practices such as performance, theater, dance, anthropology and journalism. Horelli's video installations deal with society, media and politics in the age of globalization. The narrative is often personal, but includes an analytical and expansive dimension. She has remarked, "my work is a continuation of 'the personal is political' in that personal stories are used to address structures in society."
Sharon Hayes lives and works in New York. Her work has been shown at the New Museum for Contemporary Art, the Guggenheim Museum, P.S. 1 Contemporary Art Center, The Whitney Museum of American Art, Art in General, Artists Space, Dance Theater Workshop, Performance Space 122, the Public Theater, and the WOW Cafe in New York and at Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions, Track 16, Gallery 2102 and The Project in Los Angeles. Internationally at the Tate Modern, London; Museo Reina Sofia, Madrid; Museum Moderner Kunst and the Generali Foundation, Vienna, the Deutsche Guggenheim, Berlin and in galleries, exhibition or performance spaces in California, Florida, Rhode Island, Texas, and Vermont, Bogotá, Berlin, Copenhagen, Malmö, Vienna, Vancouver and Zagreb as well as in 45 lesbian living rooms across the United States. Hayes is Assistant Professor at the School of Art at The Cooper Union.
Laura Horelli lives and works in Berlin and is currently in residence at ISCP. She graduated from Städelschule, Frankfurt and the Academy of Fine Arts, Helsinki. Horelli's work has been exhibited internationally at the 49th and 53rd Venice Biennales; Manifesta 5, San Sebastian; Gwanju Biennale; Kiasma, Helsinki; n.b.k., Berlin; Ludlow38, New York; Kunsthaus Bregenz; Palais de Tokyo, Paris; Gasworks, London; Galerie im Taxispalais, Innsbruck and Goethe-Institut Nairobi. Horelli was a Visiting Professor at the University of Fine Arts, Berlin in 2007. In 2011, she received The Hanna Höch Prize for Young Artists from the City of Berlin. She was recently awarded a 5-year working grant from the Arts Council of Finland. Horelli is represented by Galerie Barbara Weiss, Berlin.

Since 2009, the Rt. Rev. John Tarrant has served as Bishop of South Dakota - a corner of the Episcopal Church that defies expectations and preconceptions. Tarrant's ministry is a challenging one, and not simply due to South Dakota's relatively large size and sparse population (it ranks 46th for population density in America). South Dakota is a state of deep contrasts: between east and west, rural and urban, those descended from settlers and those descended from indigenous peoples, people who have hope and people who have lost it.

Lightspeed makes New York Stock Exchange debut
Canadian cloud-based e-commerce technology company Lightspeed Pos closed the public offering of its voting shares in the United States on Monday, following its New York Stock Exchange debut on Friday.
Lightspeed makes New York Stock Exchange debut. - Facebook: Lightspeed
Despite already being listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange, Lightspeed launched an initial public offering of its voting shares in the United States in an effort to expand.
"The company currently expects that the net proceeds of the offering will be used primarily to strengthen the Company's financial position and allow it to pursue its growth strategies," the Montreal-based retail payment technology firm explained, in a news statement.
It sold a total of 13,039,004 subordinate voting shares of Lightspeed, including 1,389,004 subordinate voting shares offered through a syndicated of underwriters, at a price of US$30.50 per share, for gross proceeds to the company of US$332.3 million and to selling shareholders of US$65.4 million.
The syndicate of underwriters was led by Morgan Stanley, Barclays and BMO Capital Markets, with several banks including RBC, CIBC, TD Securities, and others as co-managers.
Lightspeed, which went public on the Toronto Stock Exchange last year, was priced at $16 CDN in 2019 and has since doubled, reaching trading prices of $40 CDN per share in Toronto.
The Covid-19 pandemic has permanently altered the way retailers run their businesses and Lightspeed is reaping the benefits.
The company's total gross transaction value grew by 17 percent to over $5.4 billion in the three-month period ended June 30, 2020, and to more than $23 billion for the trailing twelve months ended June 30, 2020.
Meanwhile, in its last reported quarter, Lightspeed said it now powers over 77,000 customer locations worldwide, compared to 75,500 customer locations as of April 30, 2020.

'Robotic biologist' crunches raw data and formulates equations
By Ben Coxworth
'Robotic biologist' crunches r...

While some people may have been impressed (or intimidated) by the recent development of a system that automatically raises and analyzes cell cultures, it turns out that another facet of the biological research process may also be going to the machines. An interdisciplinary team of researchers recently demonstrated a computer system that is able to take in raw scientific data from a biological system, and output mathematical equations describing how that system operates - it is reportedly one of the most complex scientific modeling problems that a computer has solved entirely from scratch. While the system is known affectionately as "ABE," it is also being referred to as a robotic biologist.
ABE, or the Automated Biology Explorer, was developed through a collaboration between scientists at Vanderbilt University, Cornell University and CFD Research Corporation, Inc. It's a modified version of an existing piece of software known as Eureqa, which was created at Cornell and released two years ago. Eureqa was originally intended for use in the designing of robots, where it would eliminate the trial and error process. In an early demonstration of the system, it was able to independently identify the basic laws of motion, by analyzing the movements of a double pendulum.
When Vanderbilt's Prof. John P. Wikswo heard about this accomplishment, he realized that the system could probably also be used to solve biological puzzles. He contacted one of Eureqa's creators, Cornell's Hod Lipson, and the collaboration that ensued resulted in ABE.
In a test of their new system, the scientists fed ABE a data set that corresponded to the raw measurements a scientist would make when observing glycolysis, the primary process that produces energy in a living cell. To keep ABE on its toes, they even introduced an element of random error to ten percent of that data. Even with that handicap, however, ABE was reportedly able to arrive at a set of equations that were nearly identical to those already known to be correct.
The researchers are now developing lab-on-a-chip technology that will allow ABE to conduct experiments on its own. They are starting with a microfluidics device for testing cell metabolism.
Another "robot scientist" capable of running its own experiments already exists at the University of Wales at Aberystwyth, although unlike ABE, it is reportedly not capable of starting completely from scratch.
A paper on ABE was recently published in the journal Physical Biology.

In this post, Dr. Caitlin O'Connell shares what prompted her to write a book about finding connection and community in animal rituals, what surprised her in the writing process, and much more!


At this price, the seafood needed much better storage. Many types came limp, with slimey film over it. I almost never send food back, but I had to send back the chutoro because it tasted funky. Even my favorite fish species, swordfish, was funny, didn't have that milkiness it is supposed to have.
My only comfort was discovering a new sashimi variety called white tuna, which tasted fascinating, as if it brought with it the taste of shredded coconut. Buttery and smooth. But after some research, white tuna is actually not tuna, but escolar. Japan has banned the import of it because it causes gastrointestinal problems. The nation that dares to eat their own seafood, putatively full of radiation, bans this particular fish. I don't think we should be eating it.
Three quarters through the meal, I felt queasy by the low quality of the seafood. If I am rich, I'd have left them untouched and leave. We paid $168 for two persons, sharing a chirashi and a sashimi.
Wanted to bring Mr Fitness to Shibuya Sushi Bar, one of my favorite discoveries. But it was a Sunday and many shops were closed. Beggars can't be choosers. Besides, I wanted to let Mr Fitness try white tuna here. The seafood was better and fresher this time. Not as slimy. And the waitress wasn't as grumpy. We had a donburi each, and a white tuna sashimi, and we paid about $68 over for two.

I am sure you have fallen in love at some point and I'm sure you will never forget that feeling. All of us know that feeling of being in love where you can't get that person out of your mind. You think about them 24/7.
I am going to give you a different angle on this term 'in love' and I want you to consider falling in love in many different ways.
The first thing I am going to suggest, as funny as this may sound, is to fall in love with yourself.
Secondly, I'm going to suggest you fall in love with your dreams, your goals, your passions, your desires. Fall in love with your business. Fall in love with your body – keep it in perfect health.
The reason I say this is, if you think about the word 'in love', I am not talking about this crazy infatuation when we sometimes behave in silly, stupid ways, we all know about that. I am talking about the word 'in LOVE. If you think about Love and if you are a person of faith, (I am a person of faith) God is Love. Therefore, if you think about Love in that context, imagine putting all the things I mentioned, held in that energy of Love. Or imagine if you could put all those things into a container full of Love. Let's talk about yourself for a second. If you held yourself in that kind of environment or that space where it's all about Love, don't you think you would take better care of yourself? Don't you think that you would not allow people to treat you badly because you did love and honour yourself?
Therefore, if you had love for yourself, you would take very good care of yourself and you would feel so much better about yourself. And when you are in that state, it kind of exudes from you and you automatically share that with others and you make your environment better, your family life better, and your workspace better. So think about being in Love in that container or that space held of Love, and I am talking about pure, beautiful, spiritual Love.
So my friends, a whole different thing from being the crazy in love, infatuated type when you're a little bit spun out in your head, as opposed to in a space where it's pure unconditional Love.
I want you to fall in Love with yourself, fall in Love with your business, or your work or career, with your body, with your home with your family, with all the people in your life and your relationships.
That's my message for you. Otherwise have a wonderful week ahead and God bless.
So how do we learn to love ourselves? It's easier said than done right?. For some simple, yet powerful steps to learn to Love yourself, please join my next Meaningful Monday free webinar on the 5th March at 8pm.

Tomb Raider – Review
March 20, 2018 July 25, 2019 Categories FilmAction, adventure, Alicia Vikander, film review, Films, lara Croft, movie review, movies, review, Tomb raiderLeave a Comment on Tomb Raider – Review
Lara Croft is the heiress to the Croft empire, a company founded by her father, who disappeared seven years ago. (We're never told what kind of business Croft actually does, however). She lives her life on her terms, having zero interest in taking over the reigns of the Croft business, instead choosing to spend her time kick boxing and working grueling jobs she earned on her own. This is how we are introduced to Lara, and she's easily and immediately the best part of this new Tomb Raider.
Lara Croft is a fiercely independent protagonist who's actions completely drive the story. When she reaches rock bottom, she decides it's finally time to become involved in her father's legacy. This leads her to discovering clues that could lead her to her father's supposed final location before his disappearance, so she sets out on a dangerous journey to find him. Lara is not merely a witness to the events unfolding around her. It is because of her decisions throughout the film that anything begins to move forward, and it's wonderful to see an active protagonist in an action movie like this, as opposed to someone who just has the misfortune of having bad things happen to them; a passive protagonist. This is Alicia Vikander's movie; she owns this role and dominates the screen. She trained hard in preparation for this movie and she apparently does all of her own stunts in it. It pays off, because the action is one of the strongest aspects of this movie. It's refreshing to see an action film that's pretty much all practical stunts and effects throughout. There's no part of this film where what you are seeing looks unconvincing or fake. There are shots that are digitally enhanced, definitely, but it's never obvious / distracting. Each instance of hand to hand combat is filled with tension and carries real stakes, thanks to steady camera work and gritty fight choreography.
About a quarter of this movie feels like it's just Lara Croft running, and we get these sweeping shots overheard of her that then pan to the front of her, and it really does a great job of showing off her speed and athleticism. But this isn't a typical action hero. Lara is shown to be extremely vulnerable and emotional, and this is what makes her feel relatable and real. She doesn't always win every fight, while she's fighting she's visibly scared, she screams, she runs out of breath, when she gets injured those injuries have weight and they don't go away, they last throughout the movie and she struggles through them. She's not someone who just plows through enemies without breaking a sweat or without a second thought. There's a scene where she's forced to kill someone for the first time after a long struggle and it's not triumphant at all, she's very shaken and distraught over it. Vikander sells every moment that she's in; she is powerful and confident yet vulnerable.
Unfortunately, one strong hero, even with a terrific performance, does not instantly make a great movie. The rest is pretty generic. There's no other character that really stands out, Lara's friend Lu Ren (played charismatically enough by Daniel Wu), offers some nice levity but is completely sidelined for what feels like half of the film. Walton Goggins is a brilliant actor but his character, rival archeologist Mathias Vogel, is as bland of a villain as you can get. Vogel wants to get an ancient, evil tomb open to make himself and his employers rich, and is willing to kill anyone who stands in his way. We're told he has his own daughters he wants to get home to, an obvious parallel to Lara's father, but that's it, we're told that once and we never come back to it. There's no scene of Vogel explaining how much his daughters mean to him, how it's torture that he's been trapped on this expedition for so long (remember, it's been seven years), or anything. The character is more of an obstacle than an actual person.
The narrative is very simple and straight-forward, that is until the very end, where they attempt to set up a sequel, if not a series of sequels. This is not only a bit overly ambitious for this would-be franchise, but it also holds the movie back from completely focusing on the standalone story it's trying to tell and giving us a satisfying conclusion to that story. The ending chooses to solely prep us for the next adventure, instead of taking the time to reflect and think on the dangerous trek that Lara just took and how this has changed her.
Does Tomb Raider break the video game movie curse? When all is said and done, it just might. A simplistic plot doesn't necessarily mean a bad plot, and the father-daughter relationship that drives the entire thing is solid and genuinely touching at times. This is a true redemption of Lara Croft; a rebirth of the iconic character for the modern age that began with the 2013 video game reboot, which this film is an adaptation of. I would love to see this version of Lara in a more interesting story with more interesting supporting characters, but this isn't exactly a bad starting point. Tomb Raider is a fun, action-packed adventure carried by a strong lead character and performance, but it just misses becoming truly great.

Is it the end of the road for Gautam Gambhir in Tests?
by Hari Freelance Writer
Published - Nov 17, 2016 5:26 pm | Updated - Nov 17, 2016 5:44 pm
Gautam Gambhir. (Photo Source: BCCI)
A Test needed saving. The team needed someone to bat out for four hours. Once upon a time the Indian team needed to bat two and a half days. In 2009 at Napier, the Indian team was batting with their back to the wall. What followed was a 436 ball vigil which lasted more than ten hours. That was stonewalling of the highest order and Gambhir had to dig deep for nearly 2 and half days. This time though his team needed him to bat out around 50 overs. This used to be right up Gambhir's alley. This wasn't 2009 though. This was 2016. The stance was different. The result was different. Off the sixth ball he faced, Gambhir poked and edged to second slip. It was Déjà vu. We had seen this happen in England in 2011, in Australia in 2011, and as recent as 2014 against this same set of fast bowlers in England.
Gautam Gambhir was drafted back into the Indian team thanks to a combination of injuries to first-team players and his consistent performances in the domestic scene over the last one and half years. While his former Delhi and Indian team-mate Virender Sehwag called it a day last year, Gambhir stuck it out. His performances didn't quite match the high standards he had initially set but he was resilient as ever. Runs came when it mattered. Grit and determination are two qualities he has in abundance. He was back in the selectors' radar and it wasn't much of a surprise to see him replacing Dhawan.
With pitches expected to turn and given Gambhir's ability in maneuvering spinners Gautam Gambhir didn't seem to be a bad choice. His quicksilver footwork makes him one of the better batters in this Indian line-up against spin.
In his first innings back against the Kiwis, he scored a composed 29 but couldn't capitalize on the start. With the team needing quick runs in the second innings, Gambhir batted selflessly and compiled a quick-fire 50 in 56 balls only to get out to a soft dismissal. If he had scored a century then things may have slightly been different.
Technical prowess against spin won't count as much as runs though. Increasingly it became apparent that Gambhir had to get a big innings against England to entertain any hopes of continuing to play for India. At Rajkot, he started well. He and Vijay survived till stumps on Day 2. Unfortunately for him, early next day he got into an awkward tangle to a straight Stuart Broad delivery and couldn't add more than 29.
Meanwhile just before the start of the second test, KL Rahul smashed a century to add to a 76 in his earlier innings in the Ranji Trophy. BCCI proactively brought him into the Test squad for the second test. The moment KL Rahul's selection was announced, the signs were obivous. Kohli, in the press conference before the match, confirmed that KL Rahul and Vijay are the first-choice openers.
So it was no surprise to see KL Rahul in the playing XI in the second test. What was surprising though was Rahul returned without troubling the scorers poking at a ball outside off stump from Stuart Broad. This poke though may not stop the team management from backing Rahul given his run of scores since his debut. It has become very clear that the selectors are looking at Rahul as the long term option and it is equally clear that he will be given a long rope if he does get into a rut.
Where does this all leave Gauti? Only time will tell but unless something dramatic happens we may have seen the last of Gambhir in Indian colours. But don't count Gambhir out just yet. It isn't in his nature to give up. Expect him to go back to the domestic cricket and put on some scores. He is now in a scrap, alright. You can bet your last rupee on him to be always up for a fight. Remember Napier 2009.

Q: Using DISTINCT with ActiveRecord I'm using  ActiveRecord / RoR.
My table looks like this:
id (int), start_time(time), end_time(time), ...

1, 20:00, 23:00

2, 20:00, 23:00

3, 16:00, 20:00

4, 16:00, 23:00

5, 20:00, 22:00

6, 16:00, 20:00

I need to return the records that have a combination distinct start_time + end_time combination.

A: YourModelClass.select("DISTINCT start_time, end_time")

This will return objects that aren't strictly records but they will inherit from ActiveRecord::Base and you can do pretty much anything with those objects that doesn't write to the database.

Stage director Renaud Doucet and designer André Barbe have brought their outsized vision to more than 30 operas.
The celebrated duo turned a Turandot at Vienna's Volksoper into a phantasmagoric insect world, and then re-envisioned it again as the Chinese-inspired spectacle at Vancouver Opera in 2017.
They've staged a retro-futuristic La Cenerentola for Staatsoper Hamburg, with a look straight out of Fritz Lang's Metropolis. At Opéra National du Rhin, their 1950s-America version of Cendrillon featured gigantic Populux kitchen appliances. At the Scottish Opera, their Manon was a vision of bewigged, rococo splendour. And then there was Wexford Festival Opera's monochromatic rendition of Pénélope, with masked handmaids and an all-white kitchen tilted madly askew at centre stage.
Now the Venice-based Canadian duo is bringing the same creative genius to Giacomo Puccini's classic La Bohème. With sets that originated in their Scottish Opera production, it opens on a present-day tourist who's sick with cancer, as she wanders through a flea market in Paris. Finding a stall filled with 1920s objets d'art, she's transported back to that city's Jazz Age, when it was a buzzing artists' hub. It's there that the doomed love story of the writer Rodolfo and the dying Mimi unfolds, amid scenery that's been likened to a three-dimensional vintage postcard from the City of Light.
What is important to understand about Doucet and Barbe is that their dazzling renditions of operas are not about gimmicks. In fact, Doucet feels a strong responsibility to honour what was written by the great composers. Instead of reinventing the masterworks, he and Barbe seek something closer to rediscovering them. They accomplish that with meticulous excavation of the original work.
"I would love to set a Bohème today, but I've seen a lot of Bohèmes set today that are failures because they do not respect the score," he says with passion in colourfully accented English. "Whatever decision you make, you need to be able to support it from the first note to the last. You can have an idea, but if it's not good for the rest of the opera, it's not a good idea.
Designer André Barbe and stage director Renaud Doucet (from left) feel a strong responsibility to honour what was written by the great composers.
Their artistic relationship works, he relates, because they don't always see eye to eye, questioning and challenging each other. "The thing is not to think alike but to complement each other," Doucet explains. "We rebound off each other, like a tennis match, for a very long time until we say, 'Ah, this is good.' " Sometimes the pair will spend two or three years planning an opera project. Doucet, who loves cuisine, says that gives them the luxury of cooking up ideas, then letting them simmer before returning to them anew.
The Jazz Age seemed like an apt setting for the opera, because it, too, has sometimes been seen romantically, as the glory days of Paris, when artists from Pablo Picasso to Josephine Baker converged on the city. But, Doucet points out, there was hardship then, too; poverty abounded and the average life span was just 48, he points out.
The approach has little to do with whether the portrayal is traditional or modern, he says.
Vancouver Opera presents La Bohème at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre on February 14, 16, 19, 21, and 24.


In August Cassie, Richard and I attended a Build-a-thon workshop at Mosman Library. To commemorate the centenary of World War I, Mosman Library is creating a rich online collection of materials about the war experiences of Mosman residents. The Build-a-thon was led by Dr Tim Sherratt, a digital historian, web developer and cultural data hacker and he and the passionate team at the Library are doing some brilliant thinking to consider how wonderful personal papers, official archival records, photographs and other information about the impact of the war on Mosman and its residents can be really opened up and made accessible online.
The Build-a-thon was a day long opportunity to contribute ideas about the possibilities, learn from each other's experiences, see Tim's ideas and his presentations on the latest digital tools and technologies and really engage with the fantastically detailed and poignant war records that have already been gathered about Mosman and its people. A great range of residents, family historians, World War I subject experts, librarians and many others all attended the event.
Cassie, Richard and I went along, together with other archival colleagues Chris and Barbara to consider the official records of war and how these can be opened up to new and different forms of access.
Throughout the day we had the opportunity to break up into groups depending on our interests and to really engage with the issues. Our group, which was joined by a host of really knowledgeable subject experts, decided to look at soldiers' military service dossiers. These brilliant records are held by the National Archives of Australia (NAA). NAA has digitised the records and made them all available online. There is generally one dossier for every solider who enlisted with the Australian Imperial Force (AIF). The dossiers can range from a couple of pages long to dozens and dozens of pages. The dossiers are the official record of a soldier's war time experience.
It probably sounds a little dry but we were quite excited by our plan – as a bunch of contemporary recordkeepers, we wanted to test the idea of using a metadata representation of events as a pathway to open up the content of the dossiers. We wanted to try and identify whether there were a standard series of events represented in the dossiers and whether these could be leveraged as a way of accessing data and creating relationships between different sets of information. We defined events quite broadly, considering things like particular battles as events, and also considering standard military processes or episodes that occurred in the lives of soldiers as events, such as enlistment, training, movement, medical events, leave etc.
We were lucky that members of our group George and Tim had a really detailed knowledge of the service dossiers and that the Library project team and its volunteers had done extensive work in pulling together the names of many of the Mosman residents who had served in the war. Using the National Archives website we were therefore able to scroll through a number of the dossiers of Mosman servicemen and start to test our hypotheses.
At the end of the day our conclusion was that there is really great potential for illuminating a soldier's experiences through the war by using events as an access point, and that the event model can, we think, provide a powerful way to connect and search for different war experiences. For example, it would take a good amount of volunteer effort, but for Mosman's service people and using a defined list of military events, you could scroll through their dossiers and create a list of their enlistment times and locations, a list of where and when they trained, a list of where and when they were injured in battle etc. Layering this data over a Google map you could then see exactly where the service people from Mosman travelled, how many were located on a specific battle field at a particular point in time and, poignantly, how many actually made it home.
Alternatively, you could focus in on a specific military process event and determine how many of Mosman's volunteers were ultimately demobilised, or how many were taken ill with disease or how many were awarded a commendation. Alternatively again you could focus in on a battle and chart the subsequent events that occurred to each person in this event, be they injury, commendation or a slow movement onwards to the next grim confrontation. You could connect families and chart the different experiences of siblings through the war or create a summary representation of all of Mosman's residents' experiences through the war. So there is great potential here.
We really had a great day at the Build-a-thon and I would really encourage people to take a look at the fantastic work that the Library's team is accomplishing and the real community engagement they are building.
While it was really wonderful to engage with archival records again, it was also really fascinating to consider the implications of these ideas on contemporary recordkeeping. Primarily I think they demonstrate the tremendous power of metadata and the multiple different business benefits you can achieve if you design a considered, strategic metadata framework that gives you the potential to reuse and connect your business information in many and multiple ways.
Functional or event based metadata is often an area of metadata description that is poorly defined and minimally utilised. But this type of metadata holds true business value. This is because records are fundamentally about business. They are the products of business transactions. If we can better define business events and business transactions in our metadata schema we will provide a better representation of what the business information that is produced is about. We will also create ways to connect this data back to other events, other transactions, compare them to similar events, map them to events over time – there are so many potential benefits to provide connections, both historically and now in the contemporary business landscape.
It was also interesting to engage with the dossiers as records, and to look at a record that was created in a military office environment nearly 100 years ago and consider how this impacts on its ongoing meaning and accessibility. If you go online at the National Archives and read some of the dossiers you will find that the clerks creating the records then were generally no different to office staff today. Incredibly busy, immersed in their day to day operations and business environments and with a language and way of operating that is unique to their time and place. While much in the service records is understandable to a lay-person, particularly the formal correspondence between the military and a service person's family, the 'business' areas of the dossiers are filled with acronyms, indecipherable signatures, codes and other information that, 5 or 10 years later, let alone 100 years later, people will struggle to understand. Thankfully, because of the significance of the war and the ongoing use of these records over the last 100 years, there are ample resources available that can explain what all these different acronyms and codes mean. But how much of today's information will have similar translations available in the future? Within a fairly short window, will we be able to tell what a database field was actually about? Will we understand the acronyms in a file title? Will a fairly random email title still have any meaning?
In the contemporary business environment these issues are really important to consider, and not just for future archival reference but for ongoing business reference. If you are trying to search for your business data, is having a document labelled as 'OMA v1 TTP' going to be of any assistance to you? Looking to the past and learning the lessons it teaches us today is important in so many ways, including recordkeeping! Thinking about accessibility, thinking about the data you are creating and how you or a colleague are actually going to find it in two years time will pay dividends both now and for many years into the future.
So thank you Tim and the library crew for a very inspiring day and for working so passionately on this project which will bring tremendous value to the Mosman community and many, many others.


There is nothing quite as sweet as the smile on a child's face when they open a toy. However, be sure those toys are safe. Sadly, instead of joy and laughter, some toys leave behind pain and sadness in their wake. Take the Montero Law Center's advice and keep this holiday happy and safe for all.
Age appropriateness: Make sure the toy is something that will be safe for the child given his age. All toys should have recommendations for ages on them. Follow those. Toys made for older children may have smaller parts that may be choking hazards. Some content in movies and video games may not be suitable for younger children.
What type of paint is used: Lead paint is still used on certain toys manufactured in China and can pose a hazard for many children, especially those that still put things in their mouths. There are federally mandated standards for lead paint but the best bet is to look for those that declare themselves lead-free.
Battery-operated controls: Children are safer with battery-operated toys than those that require they be plugged in, due to the risk of burns and electrical shocks. However, there are warnings in place for the small button-sized batteries found in some toys, greeting cards, and other devices. These batteries as well as small magnets have been swallowed and have caused serious injuries and illnesses.
Cords, strings, and long fabric ropes can pose a strangling hazard for children. Children can become tangled in the ropes and be severely or fatally injured. Keep string lengths under 12 inches.
Balloons, plastic bags, and plastic wrap pose a serious risk of suffocation. Remove these materials and make sure that balloons are not left with kids unattended.
Appropriate protective gear should always be given with toys that are designed for outdoor movement. Helmets should go with bikes, scooters, and other moving objects as well as knee pads and wrist guards where appropriate.
Keep your kids safe. Read the labels, register products, and follow the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission's email alerts so that you can find out about any recalls as soon as possible.
At the end of the day, however, no toy is perfectly safe and children can find ways to take things apart that adults may never have conceived. The only way to truly ensure your child's safety is to supervise them when they are playing. Keep older children's toys away from younger children as well.
If your child suffered injuries from a dangerous or defective toy, contact a product liability lawyer at the Montero Law Center at 954-767-6500 for a free consultation.

Robin Danar is an American producer, recording and mixing engineer, and musician.

Career
Danar started engineering records in New York City under mentors Steve Lillywhite, Phil Ramone, and Gary Katz. At the same time, he was doing live sound and recording at the famed club CBGB in its prime when it was known for hosting punk rock and new wave bands, including the New York Dolls.

Danar then went on to tour internationally as a front of house sound engineer for artists including Laurie Anderson, Suzanne Vega, The B-52's, and Cyndi Lauper. He was also involved in recording Bonnie Raitt and Los Lobos for the Wim Wenders film The Soul of a Man, part of the PBS series Martin Scorsese Presents The Blues.

Danar is involved with Santa Monica's public radio station KCRW as a producer of the annual "A Sounds Eclectic Evening" and "Sessions" projects. He was also involved as a producer of the Shortlist Music Prize which was broadcast on MTV and XM Radio.

He is currently the Production Manager at Teragram Ballroom in Los Angeles.

Altered States
In 2008, Danar released his first producer-as-artist album Altered States, featuring performers from the Los Angeles music scene including Lisa Loeb, Rachael Yamagata, Jesca Hoop, and others. The album received positive reviews from critics at PopMatters and Hits Daily Double. Gianfranco Marmoni, writing in OnDaRock, gave the album 6.5 out of 10 stars, praising its "great instrumental mastery" and the quality of its song covers, while finding that the varieties of music styles made listening "somewhat discontinuous". Altered States was recorded entirely inside Danar's garage.

The term ethnotaxonomy refers either to that subdiscipline within ethnology which studies the taxonomic systems defined and used by individual ethnic groups, or to the operative individual taxonomy itself, which is the object of the ethnologist's immediate study.

For example, in many West African languages, the perceptual world of color is classified into the principal categories "Red," "White," and "Black" (finer gradations being secondary).  The range of wavelengths that an English-speaker calls blue would be a subcategory of "Black." (See also Blue–green distinction in language)

The set of categories of familial relationships evinced by the ethnic group's kinship system is another ethnotaxonomy.  An example of this might be the Hawaiian kinship system, where all members of a generation of the same sex are referred to by a single term.  Both the relationships termed mother and aunt in English fall into the same taxon "Mother-Aunt".  This does not mean that the users of this taxonomy are confused about the concept "Birth-Mother," only that it is a subcategory.

Conversely, an ethnotaxonomy such as the Sudanese kinship system or that used in ancient Rome, where no two relationships have the same denotation, may show much more granularity than the English system.  Thus the relationship called aunt in English is not fundamental in Latin, but either amita "Father's Sister" or matertera "Mother's Sister" must be chosen.  Latin and Sudanese are called a "descriptive systems," and Hawaiian is called a "classificatory" system, but this terminology is English-centered (see Lewis H. Morgan), the difference being one of degree, rather than kind.

Categories of plants, "Useful" and "Harmful," etc., are yet another well-known example.  Indeed, in recent years there has been a vogue usage of the term ethnotaxonomy limiting it to ethnobotany and ethnopharmacology, because of the "rediscovery" of the medicinal and commercial value of plants disclosed by examining the botanical ethnotaxonomies of lesser-known cultures.

Animal folk taxonomy in the Kalam language of Papua New Guinea has been extensively studied by Ralph Bulmer and others.

A great West Indies Cricket Moment: The victory over Bangladesh beyond the Boundary
By Dr David Hinds
The victory by the West Indies team in the first test match of the Bangladesh tour represents one of the greatest moments in West Indies cricket history—a great West Indian moment. For me it ranks alongside the historic victory over England in 1950, the World Cup triumph in 1975, the 1976 humiliation of England, the "blackwash" of England in 1984; Brian Lara's 1994 breaking of the legendary Garry Sobers' record and the two T20 World Cup wins in 2012 and 2016 under the leadership of the much-underappreciated Darren Sammy.
I characterize those moments as great because they galvanized the Caribbean society beyond the boundary. My inclusion in this category of Lara's accomplishment and the two T20 wins may puzzle some people. But in Lara's case, he broke the record at a time when the fortunes of the great teams of the 1970s and 1980s had begun to show signs of decline. His achievement gave hope to the region that all was not lost. And the World Cup victories were achieved while West Indies cricket was on its knees.
When the first-choice players declined to tour Bangladesh, one was torn between frustration and understanding—frustration that not for the first time our players appear to be taking lightly their roles as shapers of our collective struggle for selfhood and understanding because of the deadly consequences of the pandemic. So, many of us did not give the so-called second-string teams a chance. The performance during the ODI leg of the tour seemed to confirm our assessment. Then out of the blues came the incredible victory led by the little-known Kyle Mayers.
The manner in which the batsmen went about their business on the last day was reminiscent of the best in the Caribbean character. It had all the necessary ingredients—the traditional West Indian flair; the mental toughness of the great teams of the Worrell era of the early 1960s and the Lloyd-Richards era of the 1970s-80s; the arrogance of West Indian self-confidence; and the trademark resistance of the oppressed. It was something West Indian to the bone—a special that touches the soul of the people and brings us to life.
We should be excused if we allow ourselves the luxury of believing that this moment is the catalyst for that resurgence of glory that we have hoped and prayed for since 1995—yes, 26 long years. But for now, our spirts are lifted above the violence of the pandemic, the continued visionless drift of our politics and the economic depression that faces the poor in our midst. Our young men in marron with bat and ball in hand in a far-off land have rekindled hope that our civilization will not fade away—just like that. We live to fight on for another day.
And, for us Guyanese, we are jolted from our rancorous, foolish self-destructive political nothingness to the realization that we are also West Indians.

The Hillary Step on Mount Everest is Gone
gripped May 19, 2017
The Hillary Step on Mount Everest collapsed sometime in the past few years. The rock feature was an exposed and steep section of the Southeast Ridge that was first climbed in 1953 by Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay.
Expedition leader Tim Mosedale who had climbed Everest a number of times reported it after his May 16 ascent. "The Hillary Step is no more," he wrote on Facebook.
The 12-metre rock step was at 8,790 metres on Mount Everest, making it one of the highest technical rock features in the world. It was considered the crux of Everest's most popular route.
Climber's site planetmountain.com noted from Pemchhiri Sherpa, "'Yes, it has changed… before we had to climb the rock but now, after the earthquake, the route has changed and now we need to climb from the right.'
"It's worth noting that in this pre-monsoon season Pemchhiri helped install the fixed ropes up the SE Ridge route and the other day he scored his eleventh Everest summit."
A post shared by Kent Stewart (@kentstewart) on May 15, 2016 at 6:43am PDT
There are currently hundreds of climbers making their way to the summit during one of the few weather windows of the season. For an interview with Mosedale, visit here.
When asked if he thought anyone would ever want to climb Everest after his first ascent, Hillary said in an interview with Allison Chase and Gordon Brown here, "Tenzing and I thought nobody would be particularly interested in trying to climb it again. We were absolutely wrong."
Other famous rock features that have succumbed to gravity include the Bonatti Pillar falling from the Drus and 60 metres of Half Dome's Northwest Face falling off the route, which still goes.

Giolla Finna mac Uallacháin  was lord of Síol Anmchadha from 1096-1101.

Biography

Giolla Finna mac Uallacháin (also known as Gillafin Mac Coulahan) was a member of the Síol Anmchadha dynasty and one of the few members of the Coulahan clan to merit mention in the Irish annals. He succeeded to the kingship of the area upon the death of Madudan Reamhar Ua Madadhan, but was killed by the latter's son Diarmaid Ua Madadhan in 1101.

Among Gillafin's descendants were Professor Nicholas Colohan (1806-1890), Arthur Colahan (1884–1952), And Count Luke Woulahan, as heir to the chief of the Ó hUallacháin name.

For the past twelve years the Veritas staff has selected two members of the RHS faculty to be RHS's Mr. and Mrs. Claus for the year.
Due to their outstanding commitment to the school and their desire to make RHS a better place, Officer Ethan Schnabel, our school resource officer, and Ms. Freea Leahy, our guidance and adjustment counselor, have been named 2018's Mr. and Mrs. Claus.
When it comes to what their favorite part of the holidays is, they're both in agreement: giving back to others.
Officer Schnabel noted that he especially enjoys going out shopping for the gifts he gives his daughters, almost as much as they enjoy receiving them. In addition, Ms. Leahy says that she enjoys the holiday baked goods, who doesn't?!
The pair are also in agreement in regards to their favorite things about working at RHS: the students.
As for Ms. Leahy, she loves the people and the community the students build here in the school, noting that the humor, the staff's striving for achievement in their students, as well as the students themselves create a strong sense of community.
Although Mr. Claus doesn't have as much time off as the rest of us, he plans on spending time with his family over the holiday break.
Despite being the man himself, Mr. Claus is asking Santa, like many of us, for "a nice relaxing vacation," and Mrs. Claus says "at the risk of sounding cliche," that she already has everything she needs.
As the holiday season will soon fade away, Mr. and Mrs. Claus do have some holiday hopes for the students at RHS.
Like most of the staff, Ms. Leahy wishes "health, happiness, laughter, and good grades" for all the students.
All in all, Mr. and Mrs. Claus and the staff here at the Veritas wish all students and staff a safe and merry holiday break and a great start to the New Year!
Rudolph: Holiday Cheer and Mixed Messages?
Since 1964, the cartoon film, "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer," has played in homes across America during the holiday season. Also, the classic song that goes by the same title has been ingrained in the holiday memories of millions since 1949. However, in this holiday season, the movie's messages and plot have been put under a microscope and are facing some scrutiny.
Recently, Lucas Mikelionis of Fox News wrote a report that criticizes a video published on the Huffington Post website. The video claims the holiday classic promotes bigotry and sexism. It also claims that Santa in the story is homophobic and racist. The example of sexism occurs when Rudolph's mom is told she can't go on the search for Rudolph after he goes missing. "No, this is man's work," she is told.
On the other side of the debate, many assert how in the cartoon, the characters, who are in the wrong, end up learning from their actions, teaching them and the viewers valuable lessons.
But as pointed out in the Fox News article, many are taking offense to the "perceived bigotry" the Huffington Post and others find in this classic children's Christmas film.
Even the President's son, Donald Trump Jr., responded to the backlash on this movie stating, "Liberalism is a disease." Additionally, "The View"'s Whoopi Goldberg concluded that people are purposely seeking issues in the film.
The film's original cast member, Corinne Conley who voiced "Dolly For Sue," recently said in an interview with TMZ that the film is more relevant now than ever. Conley claims that due to the increase in bullying incidents, Rudolph helps emphasize the effects of bullying and in the end teaches a lesson to bulliers.
Family and consumer science teacher, Adrienne Donovan meets the two opinions somewhere in the middle explaining her concerns for her own sons, and the possibility of their being bullied.
The video below asks students and staff about the "Rudolph" controversy and the additional controversy regarding the song, "Baby, It's Cold Outside." It was created by the Journalism class.
As students waited anxiously for the 2:35 bell to ring on the last day of 2018 classes, RHS seniors had the privilege of learning about the college experience many will be going into from former students of RHS.
Today, many of the members of the Class of 2018 returned to their former school to not only inform the Class of 2019 of their post-high school life, but to also visit their former teachers, and catch up with old friends.
The day began with a question and answer session in the RMS/RHS lecture hall where the RHS graduates sat in front of the senior audience to provide information and advice on life after high school.
After that, the bunch made their way to the cafeteria where they were eagerly greeted by former teachers, old friends, and seniors with questions about their experiences and the transitioning process. Here, they stayed for all three lunch blocks in the cafe, while others managed to slip away into the halls of RHS where they roamed the school in search of their former favorite teachers.
Chorus members mingled with the senior citizens after their Holiday concert on Friday, Dec. 21.
Rockland High School's Chorus and Band made their annual holiday visits to all the elementary schools on Friday, Dec. 21. Under the direction of John Piazza and Victoria McComb the students boarded their busses early and got on their way to their first stop at Memorial Park; from there they went to the Jefferson, and then on to the Esten.
The last stop was their visit to the Rockland Senior Center where they played to a full room of senior citizens who had gathered to hear their annual concert. At all their stops they played and sang Holiday favorites to the appreciative audiences.
School Resource Officer Ethan Schnabel was honored with a Top Dog Club t-shirt for his contributions to all the schools in Rockland.
After a year of weekly announcements of who will be named the Top Dog amongst highly acknowledged members of the senior class, RHS's Student Government Council felt it was necessary to recognize the faculty who go above and beyond their duties. This Monday, RPS's School Resource Officer, Ethan Schnabel was honored as the Staff Top Dog.
For the past two weeks, SGC's treasurer, senior Justin Sherlock as well as other members of the Executive Board have worked to create a video of staff and students for the hard work he dedicates to the Rockland schools. In addition, as you can see around the halls of RHS, they've hung posters everywhere thanking Officer Schnabel for all his hard work. This video was shown at the Wednesday, Dec. 19 SGC meeting.
Furthermore, at this meeting, Officer Schnabel was greeted by his wife and children as well as members of SGC to watch the video and in the end, presented him with his very own "Top Dog" shirt.
Be sure if you see him in the halls to thank him for the time and dedication he puts into making this school a safe environment for us all.
The RHS Theater Guild performed its production of Arsenic and Old Lace last week on December 6, 7, and 8. The room was full of laughter each night, and the cast, crew, and directors were excited that their hard work was appreciated..
Directors Joanne White and Julia DiCanzio have nothing but great things to say about the performances. They are both extremely proud of the cast and how much work and effort they all put in to make this show as enjoyable as it could be.
Ms. White says they really challenged the cast this year, due to such a wide array of characters, but that just made the cast put in a little more grit to transform themselves into their own characters and light up the stage.
Ms. DiCanzio said that she enjoyed getting to see the cast grow from the first day of rehearsals to show night.
Senior Alison Landy (Stage Manager), is one of the two seniors who have been involved in the Theater Guild for all of her 4 years.
She says it's heartbreaking knowing that it was her last play, but she wouldn't have had it any other way. She says, "It's so surreal that I've been doing this for so long and now it's coming to an end. [I'm grateful for] the number of friendships I've made and how much I've grown since I started theater." As a committed member of the Theater Guild for four years, her devotion to the program is truly inspiring.
Junior Neleh Dunn (Dr. Einstein) showed her acting skills with this show. She nailed her character development, and almost made it look easy. She says she is grateful for the family she found in the Theater Guild, and she's so happy with the amount of fun, laughs, and inside jokes they had this year.
In his first play, senior Sean Morrissey took the role of lead character, Mortimer Brewster. Morrissey is widely committed to a number of activities at RHS. During the duration of the play he led the cross country team as captain, and he also is an AP student and the NHS president. Needless to say, he had quite a bit on his plate. It wasn't easy for him, but he pulled through and gave a fantastic performance. He truly was a found treasure in his debut performance.
Morrissey says he loved the sense of family he found in the Theater Guild, and loved how close the cast and crew got.
The Theater Guild would like to thank everyone who came out to see the show, and for the support they received from the school. They are grateful they were able to put on a "killer" show for everyone to enjoy.

Stage Manager), Seth Rosczewski (Lighting Operator), Leah Drago (Sound Operator), Molly Boggs (Costumes), Julia Yeadon (Hair and Make-Up), and Stage Crew, Morgan Wahlstrom, Maria Pala, Leah Leonard and Christa Pollard.Anthony DiNino contributed cover art and posters.

Q: SQL insert slice of interface I'm writing a function that add one row to an SQLite database.
func ManageDB(db *sqlx.DB, query string, args ...interface{}) (int64, error) {

stmt, err := db.Prepare(query)
    if err != nil {
        return -1, err
    }
    defer stmt.Close()

    tx, err := db.Begin()
    if err != nil {
        return -1, err
    }
    _, err = tx.Stmt(stmt).Exec(args...)
    if err != nil {
        log.Errorf("error inserting row '%s' %v", query, err)
        log.Debugln("Doing rollback on Insert")
        tx.Rollback()
    } else {
        tx.Commit()
    }

  return res.LastInsertId()
}

and I call it with with that

b := "INSERT INTO MYTABLE (name1, name2, name3, name4) VALUES($1, $2, $3, $4)"

c := []interface{}{
      "string1",
      "string2",
      0,          // int64
      "string4", //string4
    }

idt, err := models.ManageDB(
      db,  //db initialized
      b,
      c,
    )

.......

When I test that function it works like it should, and add items without problem.
When I run it on the main code, it reports this error:

sql: converting argument $1 type: unsupported type []interface {}, a slice of interface

I don't understand what is wrong.

A: In the second snippet, you are not spreading c over the arguments, you are simply passing c. Therefore in ManageDB, args is equal to:
[]interface{}{
    []interface{}{
        "string1",
        "string2",
        0,
        "string4",
    }
}

And so sqlx thinks you want $1 to be that whole array.
Fix would be to call ManageDB like so:
models.ManageDB(db, b, c...)

Morning Ticker
Nintendo's new Switch Console could be a total flop
October 21, 2016 by Dan Taylor Leave a Comment
Switch is Nintendo's attempt to get back in the game, literally.
Nintendo is making a big, bold entry into the gaming market with its newest piece of video game hardward called the Nintendo Switch. But early on, critics aren't terribly impressed with the new platform.
Switch aims to be a good bit different from current generation consoles by being a shape-changing platform that can turn into both a home-based machine and a portable device. The official launch date isn't until March with no price tag set yet, but some investors have gotten to take the new gaming system for a spin, and the bad early reviews sent Nintendo's shares plummeting 7 percent on Friday, according to reports.
The Nintendo Switch is meant to be an all-in-one glaming platform with removable controllers and a screen that can be plugged into the TV or taken with you for gaming on the go. Nintendo has been struggling to compete in the consoles market with Microsoft's Xbox and Sony's Playstation in the years since it released the innovative Wii back in the mid 2000s. The Wii U landed flat and sales of Xbox One and Playstation 4 have surged compared to Nintendo's offerings.
The main reason Nintendo struggled is not because of competition from the consoles, but from mobile phones, which were able to do a lot of the things that the Wii could. Hardcore gamers stuck to the Playstation and Xbox, but the casual gamers who enjoyed the Wii abandoned it for mobile games.
Switch is Nintendo's attempt to get back in the game, literally. Nintendo knows it probably can't knock Sony and Microsoft out of the top spots for the hardcore gamers, so they're going back to trying to appeal to casual gamers. The Switch is aimed at people who want to play on dedicated hardware, but not enough to spend all day in a room with a console just playing.
Early reviews aren't promising so far, but Nintendo still has a few months to right the ship and get back into the market.
