Das Pinselohrschwein oder Flussschwein (Potamochoerus porcus) ist eine Säugetierart aus der Familie der Echten Schweine (Suidae).

Merkmale

Pinselohrschweine zählen zu den am auffälligsten gefärbten Schweinen. Die Grundfärbung ihres Fells ist rötlichbraun, entlang des Rückens erstreckt sich ein weißer Aalstrich. Das Gesicht ist schwarz gefärbt und weist weiße Augenringe und einen weißen Rüssel auf. Charakteristisch ist der lange Backenbart und die namensgebenden schwarzen oder weißen Büschel an den blätterförmigen Ohren. Beide Geschlechter haben Hauer. Diese verlängerten Eckzähne wachsen aus Ober- und Unterkiefer und schleifen sich aneinander ab. Die Männchen haben außerdem warzenartige Auswüchse des Nasenbeins unterhalb der Augen.

Der Körperbau ist rundlich, die Beine sind kurz und kräftig und der verhältnismäßig lange Schwanz ist – abgesehen von der Quaste – unbehaart. Diese Tiere erreichen eine Kopf-Rumpf-Länge von 100 bis 150 Zentimetern, eine Schulterhöhe von 55 bis 80 Zentimetern und ein Gewicht von 45 bis 120 Kilogramm.

Verbreitung und Lebensraum
Pinselohrschweine leben im westlichen und zentralen Afrika, ihr Verbreitungsgebiet erstreckt sich vom Senegal bis in die Demokratische Republik Kongo. Sie sind nicht wählerisch in Bezug auf ihren Lebensraum und sind sowohl in Wäldern als auch in Savannen und Sümpfen zu finden. Allzu trockene Gebiete meiden sie jedoch.

Lebensweise
Diese Schweine sind nachtaktiv, tagsüber ziehen sie sich in selbstgegrabene Mulden in tiefer Vegetation zurück. Sie leben in Familiengruppen von 2 bis 15 Tieren, die oft von einem Keiler begleitet werden. Sie sind territorial und markieren ihre Reviere durch Drüsensekrete oder indem sie Baumstämme mit ihren Hauern anritzen. Die Mähne und die Quasten können aufgestellt werden, damit das Tier größer erscheint.

Im Bedrohungsfall können sie schnell laufen und gut schwimmen. Manchmal verteidigen sie sich aber auch gegenüber ihren Fressfeinden (meist Katzen oder Hyänen), indem sie diese attackieren.

Nahrung
Pinselohrschweine sind Allesfresser, die Wurzeln, Knollen und Früchte, aber auch Insekten, kleine Wirbeltiere und Aas zu sich nehmen.

Fortpflanzung
Nach einer rund 120- bis 130-tägigen Tragzeit bringt das Weibchen ein bis sechs (durchschnittlich vier) Jungtiere zur Welt. Die Neugeborenen tragen helle Fellstreifen, sie sind Nestflüchter und können der Mutter schon kurz nach der Geburt folgen. Männchen und Weibchen einer Gruppe kümmern sich um den Nachwuchs, der nach zwei bis vier Monaten entwöhnt und mit zwei bis drei Jahren geschlechtsreif wird.

Pinselohrschweine und Menschen
Nachdem die natürlichen Feinde der Pinselohrschweine wie Leoparden durch den Menschen dezimiert wurden, haben sie sich zum Teil beträchtlich ausgebreitet. Mancherorts werden sie als Plage angesehen, da sie in Plantagen einfallen und diese verwüsten können. Insgesamt ist die Art weitverbreitet und zählt nicht zu den bedrohten Arten.

Systematik
Das Pinselohr- und das Buschschwein wurden früher als eine gemeinsame Art betrachtet. Heute werden sie, auch aufgrund der Unterschiede im Äußeren (Buschschweine sind weniger farbenfroh) und des getrennten Verbreitungsgebietes (Buschschweine leben im östlichen und südlichen Afrika) als getrennte Arten geführt. Gemeinsam bilden sie die Gattung der Buschschweine (Potamochoerus).

The shootings appeared to involve a domestic dispute that may have been the result of an extramarital affair, Phoenix police said.
A Phoenix man suspected of killing his wife, two daughters and another man confessed to the crimes after his arrest, claiming God told him it was OK to do so, according to Maricopa County court records.
The suspect has been identified as Austin Smith, 30, of Phoenix, according to police.
The killing spree began on Thursday night around 8 p.m., at a home in the 7100 block of West Minnezona Ave., when Smith confronted his wife after she arrived home from a local bar, according to Maricopa County court records.
The account of what happened was told to investigators by Smith, who confessed to the killings after his arrest, according to a probable cause-statement submitted to the court by Phoenix police after Smith's arrest.
Smith suspected the woman was having an affair, which she denied, but Smith "shot her because he believed God told him to do so,'' the statement says.
After killing his wife, identified as Dasia Patterson, 29, Smith turned his attention to one of his three daughters.
According to the court record, Smith believed his middle child, 5-year-old Nasha Smith, had "exhibited bad behavior'' against God's law, so he laid her on top of his wife's body and then shot the girl in the back of the head.
Smith then killed his 7-year-old daughter, Mayan Smith, because she was crying over what happened, according to the court record.
"Austin believed you should not weep for the wicked, so he punched her in the face several times with a closed fist, threw her up into the ceiling, and threw her down to the floor several times," police said in the document.
Officials said Mayan tried to escape, but Smith grabbed her and forced her to stay, believing God told him to kill her as well.
According to the court document, Smith "took a baseball bat and struck the child's head several times,'' killing her.
Smith told police that his deceased daughters reminded him of his wife, whom he considered wicked in the eyes of God, the court record says. He did not harm his youngest daughter, who is 3, because "she reminded him of himself," police said.
Smith then drove to his brother's apartment in the 3600 block of North 39th Avenue, just south of Indian School Road.
There, Smith made contact with a family friend, confronting him with his belief that Austin's brother was involved in an affair with his wife.
The man "told Austin he was crazy." Officials say Smith then shot the family friend numerous times with a handgun, killing him. He then fired at others who attempted to help him, whom he believed were co-conspirators in the affair, according to the court record.
Officers arrived at the apartment at 8:18 p.m. after reports of gunshots fired, according to Phoenix police.
"When they arrived, they continued to hear shots fired," said Phoenix police Sgt. Tommy Thompson.
Police arrived to find a man dead at the scene, identified as Ron Freeman, 46.
Two other people were also shot and wounded at the apartment. A 47-year-old woman was shot multiple times and was in critical condition Friday. Also shot was a 33-year-old man who was in serious condition.
As police were locating victims, a vehicle left the scene, police said. The vehicle was stopped by police at 67th Avenue and Osborn, and Smith was taken into custody.
It was only after police spoke to witnesses at the 39th Avenue address that they discovered the crime scene on Minnezona.
Smith was booked into Maricopa County Jail on four counts of first-degree murder, one count of attempted first degree murder, and three counts of aggravated assault, Phoenix police said on Friday afternoon.
Smith is being held on $2 million bail. His preliminary hearing is scheduled for April 22.

The Joker finds this unacceptable and goes around the neighborhood, "convincing" families to attend the birthday party and make it the best day he's ever had. As for the boy's father, he's in for the worst moment of his life!
"KILL THE BATMAN"
In a story set in a not-so-distant future the Joker has finally made his dream come true of killing the Batman and we see the all the DC universe in mourning. But this act doesn't provide the catharsis the Joker thought it would…he needs an encore…something at Batman's public memorial perhaps?

Duchcov  est une ville du district de Teplice, dans la région d'Ústí nad Labem, en Tchéquie. Sa population s'élevait à  habitants en 2021.

Ville minière, Duchcov est d'abord connue pour son château, ensuite en raison du séjour qu'y effectua le célèbre écrivain, aventurier et diplomate italien Giacomo Casanova de 1785 jusqu'à sa mort, en 1798. Il était le bibliothécaire du propriétaire du château, le comte de Valdštejn ; c'est à Duchcov qu'il rédigea son chef-d'œuvre, Histoire de ma vie.

Géographie
Duchcov se trouve au pied des monts Métallifères dont elle marque le centre. Elle est située à  au sud-ouest de Teplice, à  à l'ouest-sud-ouest d'Ústí nad Labem et à  au nord-ouest de Prague.

La commune est limitée par Háj u Duchcova et Jeníkov au nord, par Lahošť, Zabrušany et Ledvice à l'est, par Bílina au sud, et par Osek à l'ouest.

Histoire
La première mention de cette petite ville date de 1207. En 1380, sa population est touchée par la peste. Puis l'activité redémarre et en 1390, une école y est fondée.

En 1420, Duchcov est conquise par les Hussites — l'Église hussite est une Église suivant l'enseignement de Jan Hus.

Un ensemble austro-bohême, comprenant cette cité, est fondé en 1526 lorsque Ferdinand, époux d'Anne Jagellon, hérite de son beau-frère  de Hongrie. Dans ce contexte, en 1544, la famille Valdštejn (nom orthographié également en Wallenstein) s'installe à Duchcov (Dux) : elle y acquiert un ancien château de style Renaissance, appartenant jusque-là à la famille Lobkovic, et construit à sa place une demeure plus moderne. C'est ainsi qu'est fondé le château de Duchcov.

En 1639-1640, la ville est temporairement conquise par les Suédois lors de la guerre de Trente Ans. Mais finalement, ce conflit puis la guerre de Succession d'Autriche entre 1740 et 1748 consolident plutôt l'ensemble austro-bohême, créé par Ferdinand, ébauche de l'empire austro-hongrois.
Entretemps, en 1709, un incendie ravage la ville.

Entre 1785 et 1798, Giacomo Casanova réside à Duchcov. Il est employé comme bibliothécaire du château par le comte de Valdštejn. Il y a des altercations avec des domestiques. Mais il y passe finalement les treize dernières années de sa vie et y travaille à ses Mémoires, qui vont le rendre célèbre.

En 1892, l´électricité est installée dans la ville. En 1921, le château de Duchcov est vendu par les Valdštejn, qui quittent le lieu, à la Tchécoslovaquie, devenue un État souverain et une république.

Le château
Le château de Duchcov, construit par l'architecte français Jean-Baptiste Mathey, a vu passer dans ses murs des personnalités telles que Goethe, Friedrich Schiller, Frédéric Chopin, Casanova (comme bibliothécaire) et Ludwig van Beethoven (1812). Enfin, c'est aussi dans ce château qu'eurent lieu des conversations politiques entre le tsar Alexandre  de Russie, le roi Frédéric-Guillaume III de Prusse et l'empereur François  d'Autriche.

Après son acquisition par l'État, ce château abrite différents organismes. Il subit notamment des transformations en un centre social ou encore en une maison de retraite. Les intérieurs sont endommagés. Il est réhabilité dans les années 1960 et ouvert au public.

Reimagining the world in playful ways

Research Innovation and Entrepreneurship
An RMIT researcher has developed a new way for citizens to explore and activate their cities using an augmented reality app where users scan urban codes to unlock fragments of animation and sound.
Wayfinder Live, which is currently in currently in play in Bristol, Dublin and Barcelona, was developed by RMIT researcher and game developer Troy Innocent.
Innocent, a Vice-Chancellor's Postdoctoral Research Fellow at RMIT University, was awarded the Melbourne Knowledge Fellowship for his work on the digital street game in Australia.
He has since extended his research to playable cities in Europe and the UK.
The researcher said Wayfinder Live enables citizens to see the places where they live in in a new light.
"It's not about getting from A to B but to find a new way to experience a city," he said.
"It encourages users to explore and activate their cities without having to reach a specific destination."
Innocent's mixed reality, location-based and augmented reality games blend physical objects with digital interfaces to reimagine everyday urban environments in playful ways – often using patterned urban codes made of laser cut plywood and acrylic.
It works by users finding urban codes that are hidden in their city, usually disguised as patterns made of plywood and acrylic.
Once activated through the app on a smart device, users experience an augmented reality of animation and sound at that particular location.
Innocent's work transforms the way people interact with their cities and activates social and physical activity in public spaces.
"It's based on urban codemaking – a form of psychogeography wayfinding into the abstractions that emerge from the patterns and flows of a city," he said.
"The design of urban codes draws upon the pictographic language of travelling hobos, the psychogeography of the situationists, the play community of the new games movement, the world building politics of micronations, and the technology of mixed and augmented realities."
Innocent is one of the key speakers at an upcoming workshop on playful cities at RMIT Europe on 12 to 13 June in Barcelona.

The myth of Psyche and Eros
It was amazing the way we become inspired one month ago on the myth of Isis and Osiris especially after we kept an active discussion with our editors on our "AMHE – Florida Radio show". the notion of the "Afterlife" was risen with our auditors on the emission while we were honoring our dead during the month of November 2022. I invite you to learn about the myth of Isis and Osiris, because of its presentation in the most recent AMHE Newsletter.
it becomes also a surprise to me when Francelot Moise MD and Kelitha Moise NP, announced that their daughter Johanna was chosen to play the lead position on Broadway for another well-known Greek myth: "the one of Psyche and Eros." We knew well how Francelot never missed an opportunity to invite us to one of her show on Broadway without finding the opportunity to deliver and have us reunite in the room to enjoy a performance of Johanna in action.
Johanna is a daughter of the AMHE who has been for a while performing as a lead dancer in Hamilton, this famous Broadway show and it gives us an intense pleasure to announce that she will now play soon, the new role of "Psyche" in the Greek Myth of Psyche and Eros. It gave me this opportunity to talk a little about this myth as well. She was also presented in a recent ARTICLE WRITTEN BY MARGARETT Hall which I will place as well in the text for your convenience. May I invite you to read and learn about the character of Psyche in what many consider as the most beautiful Greek myth which has been adapted in movies and theaters over the years.
The story and the myth of Psyche and Eros:
Psyche is a gifted woman doted of an extreme beauty and grace. She has devoted her love to her beloved god Eros, earning her the immortality. She became the deity of soul but nowadays, she represents a self-search and personal growth through learning and losing and the expression of real Love. She became famous because of her beauty but the goddess Aphrodite did not appreciate the admiration that other was giving to her. She asked her son Eros (master of Love) to poison men's souls in order to kill off their desire for Psyche. Eros tried but Eros fell himself in love as well with Psyche because of her beauty.
All men were attracted to her but she remained unmarried because she wanted to marry only the ONE, she would fall in love for. Her parents were discouraged and try to solve the mystery. Eros suggested to Apollo that she marry an ugly beast whose face she will never be able to discover. She went along and got married but was able to be with her husband only at night. She was pleased and satisfied of the attention she was given, fulfilling her dreams and expectations. She discussed her happiness with her sisters.
Psyche was told by her jealous sisters that her lover was not only an ugly beast but also a monster who eventually will kill her and they wanted Psyche to kill him instead to save herself. One night, Psyche, oil lamp in hand, was prepared to act when she discovered the face of her beast-husband. It was the beautiful God Eros, himself. Surprised, she spilled the oil on his face. Eros woke up and flew away from Psyche stating that she betrayed him and ruined their relationship. He stated that they could never be united again. Psyche started searching for her lost love in asking Aphrodite where to find him. Aphrodite gave her three impossible tasks to accomplish in order to prove her love.
Psyche was fearless in her desire to find her lover but did not know that he was imprisoned by Aphrodite. She has to go to the underworld and bring back to Aphrodite a box of elixir of beauty and was told to avoid opening it. Instead, Morpheus, the god of sleep and dreams was hiding in the box and while the curious Psyche opened it, she fell asleep.
Eros found out the story and ran to the palace begging for Zeus's clemency for Psyche. he became witnesses of their Love and rendered psyche immortal so they can be happy forever.

May 12, 2012 was a special day for Maria Montano and her daughter Heidi. That day, they both walked across the stage at the Bruce Hoffman Golden Dome and received their diplomas from Sheridan College. Both women say they got there with the support of their family. "We're a team," said Maria. "We take turns supporting each other."
Maria, who was born in Mexico, met Mario, a Mexican teacher, when she was 18 years old and already a U.S. citizen living in Texas. When they got married Mario immigrated to the United States and they decided to move to Sidney, Montana, to start their family. Mario's goal was to become a teacher in the U.S., but there was just one problem – he didn't speak English. "Education has always been a focus in our family. It was always understood that all of us would go to college, no matter how difficult it was," said Maria.
In Sidney, Mario's dream of becoming a teacher faded as he struggled to learn English and support Maria and their two daughters, Ada and Heidi. For 10 years, he took an English lesson once a week at the local library and worked various jobs, as a field laborer, meat cutter, and he and Maria even started their own restaurant. In 1998, he was selected as ESL Student of Year from over 700,000 students. That was when Maria knew they needed to do whatever it took to put Mario through school.
"Even though the restaurant was making good money, our girls were little and they needed us," said Maria. "The award was like a sign that Mario really was supposed to be a teacher." He was accepted to Dickinson State University, so the family moved to North Dakota so he could go to school full time. Because Mario still struggled with English, he brought a tape recorder with him to every class and played the recordings for Maria at night. They would spend hours at the kitchen table, going over each class in detail to make sure he understood the material.
"To see them work together as a unit was just amazing," said Heidi. "My parents always did everything they could for my sister and I. Even though we were living in extreme poverty, my sister and I were always clean, we always had food and we were never homeless."
In 1999, Mario accepted a full-time job as a Spanish teacher at Sheridan County School District 2, and they moved to Sheridan. After that, everything began to fall into place for their family. For Maria, the fact that Sheridan College was in her hometown meant that she could still work, take care of her family, and take classes toward her associate degree.
But as a non-native English speaker who had been a stay-at-home mom for over twenty years, there were times Maria doubted her ability to complete her degree. "One time I came in crying half way through the semester and told my instructor I couldn't do it," said Maria. "But she wouldn't let me quit. She told me the college would do whatever it took to help me finish."
For Heidi, Sheridan College was there for her when she decided she wasn't ready to make the transition to a four-year college. "I was welcomed at Sheridan College with open arms," said Heidi. "It was a much more personal experience than I had at any of the other schools I went to. Plus, financially it was just a much better option."
Since their graduation day in 2012, both mother and daughter now have successful careers. Heidi received her master's degree and is now a licensed clinical social worker at the Sheridan VA Medical Center and an adjunct instructor at Sheridan College. Maria works at Holy Name Catholic School as a Spanish teacher and librarian.
"So many people supported our family along the way," said Heidi. "Now my mom and I get to work with people every day and support them on their path to higher education and a better life."

Long Live The Hokage
L.L.H: Chapter 57: Classifying
Konoha Stadium.
Yes, that's right, it was Masahiko who gave it that name.
This building is similar to the physical examination buildings that are used in modern times, but it's many times larger than the usual. Masahiko was the one who proposed the construction of this stadium, this place is used to grade the skill of 10-year-old or older Shinobi while the Shinobi below ten will have to attend the academy, which will be built soon.
After several discussions, it was decided that the ranking system will be divided into 9 ranks.
From the bottom to top, the ranking system is: Genin, Chunnin, Adept Chunnin, Elite Chunnin, Special Jonin, Jonin, Elite Jonin, S- Ranked Shinobi, S Ranked Shinobi, and S+ Ranked Shinobi.
The three lowest ranks can form a small team under the guidance of an Elite Chunin to undergo a specific mission with c-level or below; a Chunin is a level where a shinobi become more versatile, they can take a B-level mission if they form a team of three or lead the lower-ranked Shinobi to take a C-level mission or below.
In particular, a Shinobi who has become a Jonin will gain respect between his peers. Special Jonin can for a team and take an A-Level task under the leadership of an Elite Jonin, while a group of ordinary Jonin can independently complete an A-Level task; The elite Jonin ninjas and S- Ranked ninja are the absolute main force of the Village. And the majority of the highest level Shinobis in the warring states period will be divided between these two ranks, and they will be allowed to take the S-Level task provided by the Village.
And if you're wondering why there aren't any D-Level tasks, well in this period, no civilian will dare to ask and an adult to fetch for a cat that stuck on a tree.
The last two ranks are rare, even in Konoha. The S-Ranked is represented only by the patriarchal level powerhouse from the warring states, such as the Nara Shikaryu. And for the S+ Ranked, there's only a handful of people; Tobirama, Hatake clan patriarch, and Hyuga Tenjin, and Masahiko.
At the time of the evaluation, no one dared to suggest adding a tenth or an eleventh Rank. Because of Hashirama and Madara's immeasurable power, no one dared to classify them.
Standing in the center of the newly built Konoha stadium, Masahiko looked around him and saw the Shinobi waiting on the side of the stadium; it looked like if they were in a graduation ceremony.
Several elders from various clans took the test, and they were evaluated by Hyuga Tenjin using his Byakugan, which was very convenient. The Chunnin were evaluated by Shikaryu, and he could determine with a glance if they had the standards. And the Jonin were evaluated by Masahiko because Masahiko didn't really have any shortcomings, and his wit can't be easily fooled.
As for the S-Ranked, it was initially goona be taken by Hashirama, who wanted to come in person to evaluate them. But Masahiko had another idea, "I think Madara is more suitable. He will just stand there, and everyone unconsciously will attack him with all of their strength."
As for Madara's reaction, that it is another long story, mixed with cold stares and shouting…
A figure suddenly appeared in front of Masahi, interrupting his thought. He glanced up, "White hair… You're from the Hatake clan? Only about twelve or thirteen years old, you wanna be evaluated by me?"
The boy smiled, then replies, "Elder, my hair is blue…"
Masahiko got embarrassed and tried to explain, "Owh… Today's sunshine is really dazzling. So blue long-haired boy, are you from the Hatake family?"
The boy, on the opposite side, was still gentle, "Elder, I'm not a member of the Hatake family, my name is Kato Jin…"
"Ooooh… cough–cough." Masahiko choked by his own spit upon hearing his name
The teenager couldn't hold it anymore, and the smile got wiped off his face, "Elder, is something wrong with my name?"
"I didn't expect him to be from the Kato family…" Masahiko thought, then said out loud. "Nope, you're okay. There are three tests in total, and you have cleared the first two…"
Kato then handed a letter to Masahiko, "Oh, that's a great evaluation, and you've mastered a lot of Ninjutsu. Considering your age, you're pretty good. So you wanna be a Special Jonin?"
Kato nodded, "I practiced the secret technique of my clan, and I want to be tested by the elder."
Masahiko nodded, "Use it once on me."
Kato looked worried for a moment, "Elder… My technique is kinda special…"
"It's okay, your special technique is the Spiritual Transformation Technique, isn't it? Don't worry, my Yin attribute is level 6."
"It's okay, you can attack at will, it's not like I'm gonna lose to you boy." Masahiko looked impatient.
Kato stopped talking, and with an angry-looking face, he cast his Jutsu, "Spirit Transformation Technique!"
After a short while, his face completely turned pale.
His soul took an ethereal form and entered Masahiko's Spiritual world, as soon as he did, Kato's spirit got kicked in the ass by Masahiko's, and flew back to his own body.
"Hahaha, the strength of your spirit is okay, but still, you got kicked by mine." Masahiko laughed, "Forget it, you passed, next one!"
Kato's face changed a little, he frowned and looked sad, then left silently. Masahiko laughed secretly, "Dan Kato, is supposed to be his son. Dan Kato is the man that will have a romantic relationship with the goddess Tsunade, he made a lot of people jealous, how can I not bully him…?"
While Masahiko was thinking about this, suddenly a big shadow appeared; Masahiko looked up and saw a huge fat man standing before him.
"Ah, isn't it the Akimichi family? If you tell me the secret recipe of your Clan's barbeque, I will promote you to an Elite Jonin, how about that?"
The fat man scratched his head in confusion and said with a loud voice that scared Masahiko, "Really?"
When he saw how the other candidates were looking at him weirdly, the expression on Masahiko's face changed, "Just kidding… Come here and earn it!"
The test result came out, and Masahiko's face looked pale. This fat man was actually qualified to be an Elite Jonin. Masahiko felt as if he was being teased…
"Grandpa, it's my turn!" A familiar figure approached Masahiko.
"Oh, Kenji, I know about your strength. You don't have to take the test, okay?"
Kenji nodded in agreement, and then Masahiko grinned. "So did you got all lovey-dovey with the Daimyo's daughter?"
"Dovey, what? And which girl?"
Masahiko's face changed; it seems that Kenji doesn't know? Could it be that Hashirama is afraid that Mito will get angry when she know that Hashirama has set their son's marriage without her consent? Poor Hashirama…
Masahiko didn't dare to let this conversation go any further, and he quickly changed the subject, "Oh nothing, it's nothing… Next!"
The evaluation kept going for three full days. The number of Shinobi in Konoha is more than 100,000. And with the Uzumaki Clan as their allies, you can say that Konoha's current forces are actually terrifying!
When Hashirama looked at this number, he seemed sullen and said to Masahiko, "We cannot provide enough missions for all of these Shinobi…"
Masahiko smiled, "Well, that's your job, Hokage-Sama, to worry about them, as for me, I will worry about these old bones of mine…"
Hashirama got stunned, "About that second grandpa, I was curious, how old are you exactly. Since the first time I saw you, you always looked like this."
"Me too, Grandpa, Erm… I'm also curious…" Said Tobirama, who none of them knew where he came from.
Masahiko scratched his head, "Well, I'm about 20 years old this year…"

When an HTML page loads into a scriptable browser, the browser creates a hidden, internal roadmap of all the elements it recognizes as scriptable objects. This roadmap is hierarchical in nature, with the most "global" object—the browser window or frame—containing a document, which, in turn, contains, say, a form, which, in turn, contains form elements. For a script to communicate with one of these objects, it must be able to reference the object in order to call one of the object's methods or set one of its property values. Document objects are the "things" that scripts work with.
Without question, the most difficult challenges facing scripters throughout the short history of scriptable browsers has been how each browser builds its internal roadmap of objects. This roadmap is called a document object model (DOM). When one browser implements an object as scriptable but the other doesn't, it drives scripters and page authors to distraction. Pioneering scripters felt the sting of this problem when they implemented image-swapping mouse rollovers in Navigator 3, only to discover that images were not scriptable objects in Internet Explorer 3. As a result, their IE 3 users were getting script errors when visiting the sites and moving their mice across the hot images. The situation only worsened when Microsoft developed its DOM for IE 4 in one direction, while Netscape took a different path for Navigator 4.
In an effort to standardize this area, a separate working group of the W3C is charged with setting recommendations for a Document Object Model (http://www.w3c.org/DOM/). The foundation for the W3C DOM is the Core DOM module, which defines fundamental building blocks (objects, properties, and methods) that apply to any document-oriented web content (whether pure XML or HTML and its descendants). The Core module includes definitions for basic objects, such as the document, an element, element text content, and an element's attributes. Beyond those generic building blocks of the Core, specialized modules define the objects that apply to particular kinds of documents or entities within documents. For example, the working group patterned an HTML module of the W3C DOM after the elements defined for the W3C HTML 4 specification. Every HTML 4 element is represented in the HTML DOM module as a DOM object. Thus, the HTML DOM includes objects for the p element, the form element, and so on down the line. HTML 4 element attributes, in turn, become properties of HTML DOM element objects. This is how a script can read the value assigned to an attribute in the source code and perhaps modify the value in response to user activity.
A primary goal of this effort is to create a recognized common denominator among browsers (or any document engine). By the time the first round of W3C DOM standards came into being, however, Netscape and Microsoft had already deployed two or more versions of their own rapidly diverging DOMs. With companies that held sometimes radically different philosophies participating in the W3C DOM process, finding a common ground was not easy.
The resulting recommendation, as best described in the modularized DOM Level 2, created a DOM that in many ways resembled none of the existing models. While the recommendation maintains backward compatibility with early object models (as implemented in Navigator 3 and IE 3), and it exposes all HTML elements as objects just as the IE 4 model does, the W3C DOM created an entirely new framework for pieces of a document. Perhaps the greatest impact on DOM coding practices at the time was in the way scripts reference elements.
Given the initial purpose of scriptable browsers—primarily for client-side form validation and dynamic navigation—the limited object model was sufficient. Despite its limitations, DOM Level 0 from Navigator 2, Navigator 3, and IE 3 was intriguing enough to attract a wide audience hungry for more flexibility.
In advance of the W3C's DOM activity, Microsoft boosted the powers of IE 4 to allow scripts to modify any piece of a document's content after the page had loaded. The key to this feature was automatic reflow of the page to accommodate changes in an element's dimensions due to the scripted change.
In addition to this referencing syntax, the IE 4 DOM empowered all elements with properties and methods that facilitated the reading and writing of plain text and HTML content on the fly. You could, for example, insert some HTML inside an element by first assembling a string of HTML tags, attributes, and content, and then assigning that string to the innerHTML property of an existing element. The inserted content got rendered instantly, as the page reflowed to adjust for the inserted HTML. If the content contained no tags, you could assign the string to the element's innerText property.
The nested structure of HTML elements also played a role in the IE4 DOM. The notion of parent and child elements followed traditional paths. An element's container was its parent element; an element nested inside another was a child of the outer element. The element was king, and an element contained either just plain text or additional HTML elements.
The W3C DOM working group based its architecture on an object type that is more granular than the element: the node. The concept behind this is that a document and its contents can be diagrammed, in a sense, as a hierarchy of items—nodes—of different types. Some nodes are containers (branches from which other nodes hang), while others are self-contained (leaves at the ends of branches).
Figure 1-1 shows a diagrammed version of the node hierarchy of this document.
As you can see, the parent-child relationships are not conceptually different from the containment hierarchy that well-formed HTML documents exhibit. In fact, the IE 4 DOM, at least at the element level, treats relationships the same way. But when it comes to using the W3C DOM to reference elements and what you see in the source code as text content, the approach is different from any DOM that came before it.
The method returns a reference to the element, whose properties and methods may be invoked as needed. Unlike the IE 4 DOM, however, a W3C DOM element object has no direct knowledge of its child nodes, other than the fact that they exist. For example, the text content of a W3C DOM p element is not a property of the p element object. In other words, W3C DOM Level 2 provides no analog to the innerText or innerHTML properties of the IE 4 DOM. To read or modify the content of an element's content, your scripts must work with the child nodes of the element.
An element object has numerous properties and methods that provide scriptable access to information about its parent, child, and sibling nodes. These properties and methods become the primary gateways to reaching an element's nested nodes. In turn, every node has properties that reveal its type (via a constant value for each type) and value. If a child node is of the text node type, you can read or write the string value of that text node as a property of that text node. If the content consists of a mixture of text and other HTML elements, you must use other W3C DOM facilities to create and accumulate element and text nodes before inserting them into an existing element. In this model, element tags are not represented as string content of a document.
The rationale behind this seemingly complicated approach to accessing content is partly attributable to the need for the Core W3C DOM to work with both XML and HTML documents. Although the modularization of the W3C DOM offers an opportunity to add the IE DOM's innerText or innerHTML convenience properties to HTML element objects, this has not occurred in the HTML module for Level 2 (which remains unfinished as of this writing). Recognizing the significant scripting convenience of reading and writing an element's content as a string, however, the Mozilla engine (in Netscape 6 and later) implements the innerHTML property for all element objects. You can, of course, use the innerHTML property to put plain text into an element as well, so this one property handles all situations nicely.
The parent-child relationship between nodes in a document depends solely on the nesting and source code order of the tags and related content. This kind of containment hierarchy, however, does not necessarily imply inheritance of properties from parent to child. If you assign a value to the id attribute or property of a table element, nested rows do not inherit the parent element's ID. The closest that inheritance touches HTML elements is in the style sheet area, where most style attributes are inherited by an element's child elements (but CSS inheritance is governed by rules that have nothing to do with object orientation).
The W3C DOM, however, is built upon an abstract model that looks very object oriented. The abstract model defines what constitutes a node, an element, and so on. All content-related objects are derived from the Node object, defined in the Core module. This fundamental building block comes with nearly three dozen constants, properties, and methods that define what a Node is and what it can do. More specific kinds of nodes, such as the Document, Element, Attr[ibute], and Text nodes, inherit all of the Node object's constants, properties, and methods, adding properties or methods that are appropriate for whatever kind of node it is. Carrying this inheritance further to the DOM's HTML module, the HTMLElement inherits from the generic Element object, and each tag-specific element (such as HTMLBodyElement or HTMLInputElement) inherits from the HTMLElement object.
You can also find places in the W3C DOM abstract model where object "classes" act as interfaces to other objects. For example, in the Events module, an important object is called the EventTarget. As you'll see in more detail in Chapter 6, any node can be a target of an event. Thus, the DOM specification implies that all node objects should implement the EventTarget interface.
None of this abstract model construction impacts the way your scripts reference objects within a document. But it does help explain why all HTML element objects share such a large number of properties and methods, as shown in the beginning of Chapter 9.
Netscape 6 implements a substantial portion of the W3C DOM Level 2 specification. Support in IE was sketchy in IE 5, but IE has gradually embraced more—but certainly not all—of the specification through Version 6. In other words, IE 5 and later support both the Microsoft proprietary DOM (from IE 4) and significant portions of the W3C DOM. As of IE 6, however, Microsoft has not implemented the W3C DOM modules governing events and text ranges. Chapter 5 and Chapter 6 cover the current W3C and IE DOM implementations, while Chapter 9 provides a complete cross-DOM reference.

The West Hollywood City Council formally abandoned even the pretense of representing taxpayers when it recently voted 4-1 to "add a student loan forgiveness program" to the list of benefits available to WeHo city employees.
Kudos to Ms. Meister for her willingness to put residents ahead of the city's most powerful special-interest group.
In an excellent op-ed penned after the proposal was first announced, area resident Alan Strasburg questioned why the council felt the need to further inflate city workers' compensation packages, which were already among the richest in the area.
Strasburg observed that the median earnings for WeHo city government workers were above those in comparable cities, while city executives earned some of the highest base salaries in the state — with the WeHo's director of communications making more than her counterpart in the White House!
A review of compensation for other city employees reveals that the excess extends beyond just top executives.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports average wage data by occupation and region, making it is possible to compare the compensation received by certain WeHo city workers to the market as a whole, not merely other governments.
The BLS wage data for the greater LA-areahad four occupations that matched perfectly with the job classifications of WeHo city workers: Accountants, Civil Engineers, HR Specialists, and HR Managers.
In addition to receiving wages that are significantly above the market average, West Hollywood city workers also receive benefits that are dramatically greater than what the average private-sector worker receives.
For example, while the average private-sector worker receives a combined 30 days worth of paid holiday, sick, vacation and personal leave annually,West Hollywood city workers receive 41.5 days of paid leave annually.
Government workers also receive significantly greater levels of job security than private workers, which has previously estimated to be worth between 3-10% of wages. This analysis will omit that variable, which means the findings here understate the compensation premium received by WeHo city workers.
Employer-paid health benefits for WeHo city government workers are about 50 percent richer than what the average private-sector worker receives,while retirement benefits are many multiples greater, and can as much as 5 times richer than what a comparable private-sector worker receives.
Wages and benefits for WeHo city government workers are significantly above market levels. The City Council's desire to further inflate that gap — at the expense of city residents who earn far less themselves — cannot be attributed to a legitimate public policy interest. Instead, it appears likely that the council is simply using other people's money to curry favor with the government union or otherwise signal their progressive bona fides.
Yet, there is little that is genuinely progressive about taking from those with less in order to give to those with more.
One of the most compelling arguments for limiting the size and scope of government is the recognition that elected officials are actually rewarded for furthering the inequity described above.
This is because the cost can be spread over many taxpayers — who might only have to pay an extra $100 or so in annual taxes — while the benefits are bestowed on a concentrated minority.
It's easy to see why the much smaller group — which receives compensation packages around 50% above market levels — would be much more politically invested than the much larger, dispersed group who may never even realize why their taxes are going up.
Add government unions to the mix, and you get a scenario exactly like what is playing out all across California today: lawmakers raising taxes on those earning less, just so they can further inflate government pay packages that are already well above market levels.
Specifically, the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim metropolitan area.
 Average wages reflect full-time, year-round workers.
 The value of WeHo city workers' retirement benefits were calculated using the method employed by the Congressional Budget Office, as explained here, and will thus differ slightly from the actual cost.

Spend the day with Sinead Black of Bricolage Quilts from Northern Ireland. Bricolage Quilts is a small design studio based in Holywood, Co.Down. It has developed through a gradual process and is the culmination of a life spent in architecture + design. The essence of Bricolage is in the name – a piecing together of available cloth and local Irish linens, to create contemporary quilts and homewares. Its influences come from a strong design background, the power of Irish nature, the inherent natural qualities of the linen cloth used and the familiar heritage of plant-dyeing processes.
Spend a relaxing few hours learning how to quilt! This workshop will cater for all sewing levels and you will come away with the beginnings of a quilt. You can choose to make from a simple pattern (provided) or to freequilt, where you work without a pattern and tune in to your own creative instincts. You need never have quilted before! You will learn how to measure and assemble fabric pieces and master how to merge colour, texture and pattern.
Depending on your level and pace, you'll begin to a quilt top for a cushion cover, lap or baby-sized quilt, you can use your work as the start of a bigger quilt to finish at home. Finally, Sinead will briefly touch on how to finish your quilt using hand-quilting methods, basting and binding.
You will leave with 4-6 block pieces, but more importantly you'll leave the class full of inspiration and with a new foundation for bringing your own unique style into your quilting.

« Saudi Arabia's 32 Year Old Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman unprecedented grab for power may turn out to be the most unwise act for the Kingdom in 50 plus years.
Saudi Arabia going after Hezbollah in Lebanon would be another misjudgment that adds to a dangerous and combustible moment in the Middle East. Trump Is At The Center Of The Chaos! »
Socrates! Donald Trump, China, Russia And Saudi Arabia Ticking Time Bomb:
Socrates lived and died for Truth and Law; Donald Trump lives by Lying more and more! That's why it's not hard to guess why the Saudi crown prince has chosen to follow the Russian and Chinese road map, or why he has sought to consolidate power instead of sharing it.
Socrates lived his life as an endless examination of what is good and true and right, seeking neither office nor wealth; Mr. Trump is a know-it-all demagogue who treats the highest office as his right.
Socrates served his city as a soldier in war when called upon; Mr. Trump played the system — avoiding military service, exploiting legal loopholes and connections, amassing riches.
Socrates said he pursued knowledge because he knew nothing, and that people had to learn from experts, not follow the crowd. Mr. Trump proclaims himself the best at everything and gives the crowd what it wants; in order to make it his. He belittles experts, even his own country's foreign service. "I'm the only one that matters," he declares.
But Trump is also part of the story of Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince. By his own example — through his disdain for courts and for the media, through his scorn for ethical norms — Trump has cast doubt on the Western model.
Trump may even have encouraged the Saudi prince more directly. Jared Kushner, Trump's son-in-law, a living embodiment of American nepotism, visited Riyadh for long talks — officially to promote Mideast peace, but perhaps business and politics came up, too — in the days before the arrest. The image of two princelings, scheming late into the night, makes a textbook illustration of the decline of American prestige and American values, even in a country that is closely allied to the United States.
Only time will tell what the future holds for America and the world as most Republicans remain grounded in their support for the most Treasonous, Corrupt, Self-Centered, Conceited, Pathological Lying Con Man, presently sitting in the "People's Oval Office.

Remnants is a documentary photography project exploring the aftermath of demographic crisis of Republic of Moldova. This year, Republic of Moldova is marking 25 years of independence, 25 years since the collapse of Soviet Union and the country all these years is considered the poorest in Europe with no signs of economic improvement. As a result, working migration is happening to a constant rhythm, mainly young people leaving the country to find a better life abroad.
I also immigrated to Canada in 2006, graduated from a photojournalism program in Ontario in 2009 and became a Canadian citizen in 2011. Starting with 2009 I returned to Moldova every year for a couple months to document the situation mainly in rural part of Moldova, which is most affected by the phenomenon of depopulation. Starting with 2014 I returned to Moldova and now I am based in Chisinau to dedicate more time for Remnants project.
According to statistics, in Republic of Moldova, every year, 3-4 villages become completely depopulated, leaving behind collapsed houses, children of parents working abroad and elder people that are living remnants of a demographic disaster on a territory at the border of European Union. One of the reasons for the demographic crisis in Moldova is lack of national identity. The country is divided between two main directions – pro European Union and pro Russia. Republic of Moldova is ruled now by a "pro European Union" parliament majority, but the level of corruption is the highest in the last 25 years. In 2015, in Moldova was stolen a billion dollars from the banking system, which is 20% of its GDP. The economy survives on remittances from people working abroad sending money to Moldova to support their families. If depopulation crisis will not stop in the nearest future, there will be no enough working force to pay retirement pensions in Moldova, because retiring population is increasing every year.
To produce Remnants project, I choose black and white film 35mm and medium format, mainly consisting of dramatic landscapes and portraits of people left behind on a territory stuck between east and west still struggling for its direction, Soviet past or European future, but the present is uncertain and the country is a living example of oligarchy, nepotism and incompetence.
Dorin Goian was born in Republic of Moldova, a former USSR republic and is currently based in Chisinau. He studied marketing at Moldovan Academy of Economic Studies. In 2006 he moved to Canada to take up photography and studied photojournalism. In 2009, Dorin Goian attended Magnum Workshop at Contact Photo Festival in Toronto. In 2011 he was a selected participant at Noor Nikon Masterclass in Documentary Photography in Bucharest. In 2016 Dorin Goian participated at Donald Weber's grant writing masterclass in Amsterdam. Starting with 2009 he travels often to Moldova and is working on long-term projects about palliative care and depopulation in Moldova. He is a contract photographer for UNDP Moldova and freelances for Agence France Press.
