OBAMA'S MOTHER ALIVE? A MULTI-IDENTITY CRIMINAL IN HIDING?
The Geitner Obama Connection,you can run but you cant hide
"The real reason is that Madelyn's Dad worked for Rockefeller's Standard Oil Company. In 1973 David Rockefeller founded the Trilateral Commission (TC) with the Marxist-praising Zbigniew Brzezinski as its director. Zbigniew Brzezinski is a foreign policy advisor to Obama. What these Trilateralists truly intend is the creation of a worldwide economic power superior to the political governments of the nation-states involved. The place to start is with the banks and developement of "predatory lending" schemes that would eventually collapse Capitalism and pave the way for Socialism. It should also be noted that Stanley Dunham (Obama's grandfather) started an Oil company for Lolo Soetoro in Indonesia .. so that Standard Oil could make transfers to Indonesia under Lolo's Oil front.
Tweny-percent of the Standard Oil company's Oil went to powering German Submarines during WWII using Lolo's Oil front."
We can now see how the Middle East and Western Globalists (Rockefellers etc.) connections started above. It is also why anyone part of this globalist micro-finance scheme (including the Clintons) using the old Muslim money system of hawala with modern credit card laundering, including ATM transfers with the direct quid pro quo involving non profits and the indirect infiltration of funds via some very connected Muslim billionaires, topped off with the public airwaves as a public paid for propaganda ministry, has deep ties between the Indonesian and certain US banking systems over the course of several decades.
On to some research ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
An alias for Stanley Ann Dunham was found as a "relative/associate" of Madelyn L. Dunham, Honolulu, HI: "Kelly A. Dunham."
Dunhams had only one daughter, Stanley Ann. Therefore, Kelly Ann, who does not seem to have any other history, is likely an alias for Stanley Ann.
An alias search for Stanley Ann at recordsarea.com shows the following information:
* Kelly A. Dunham, associate/relative of Madelyn L. Dunham, Honolulu, HI;
* Kelly A. Shippleck (Kelly A. Dunham), Phoenix, AZ [is this a third marriage or an alias for real estate/money laundering?].
* Sandra Dunham (Sandra Lee Dunham), OH, FL
* Susan N. Dunham, HI, CA. Ste (Stephen) Dunham, Honolulu, HI (Stanley Ann chooses another male name?)
* Stephen O. Dunham, Honolulu, HI
* Scott A. Dunham, (Stanley Ann chooses a second male name?), HI, WA, OR, TN, VA, IN.
A lot of research has been done on the ominous real-estate scams by the Dunham family and their partners. Some of the research links this money-laundering scheme using counterfeit money and stolen credit card info back to Lebanon.
Ann Dunham was possibly not an America citizen - and went to school in Beirut, Lebanon. Possibly, the family was smuggled into the US as spies. No wonder Obama refuses to show his BC. Take a look at the image below:
Those initials on her jumper are reported to stand for: College Notre Dame de Jamhour in east Lebanon. It is typical of the '50's to have your clothes monogrammed.
Now .. back to topic.
There is also a Marriage notice from Kelly A Dunham to a James Allen in 1999 ( http://www.bocweb.dlnrbc.hawaii.gov )

Note according to records, Kelly A. Dunham passed on in 2007:
KELLY ANN DUNHAM (born) 08 Nov 1964 (died)19 Feb 2007 (V) 14094 (Lockport, Niagara, NY) (none specified) (SS number) 079-52-7004 New York
There is a connection to:
Ann Dunham
Kelly Dunham
Patricia Dunham
I searched Patricia Dunham and it comes up with that James T. Allen (James T Dunham) connection just as Kelly Dunham does.
DUNHAM JAMES T & WF
DUNHAM PATRICIA A & HSB
GENTRY MTG CO LTD
NOTED ON CT 423875 MTG 2076542
A new discovery - as previously, Patricia A. Dunham was linked only as the registrant to the Dunham foreign profit company, Dunham Enterprises (see below). The records above directly link both Kelly A. Dunham and Patricia A. Dunham to James T. Allen (Dunham). It means both aliases are/were used by the same person – Stanley A. Dunham. It is now clear that Stanley A. registered this business using the Patricia A. Dunham alias:
TRADE NAME DUNHAM ENTERPRISES FILE NUMBER 321149 ZZ CERTIFICATE NUMBER 4034202 STATUS Active PURPOSE CONSULTING EXPIRATION DATE Jun 27, 2010 REGISTRATION DATE Jun 28, 2005 MAILING ADDRESS 1134 KINAU ST #901 HONOLULU, Hawaii 96814 UNITED STATES REGISTRANT PATRICIA ANN DUNHAM
If Patricia A. Dunham is an alias for Stanly A. Dunham (which the records above irrefutably suggest), according to the registration date of said business above, it would have to mean that Stanley A. Dunham is still alive and that she didn't pass away.
I guess now you can see why the hospital in Hawaii that was said to have taken care of Stanley A. prior to her death has no knowledge or records of her having been there.
The address of this business (when viewing Google Maps) is only one block away from where Madelyn Dunham was said to live.
Stanley A. also spelled her last name "Sutoro instead of Soetoro" on some real-estate transactions. You can see this below:
DUNHAM STANLEY A
SIMLOG LEASING CORP
SUTORO STANLEY A D
DUBEY KRISHNA ETALS
GARRETT RICHMOND ETALS
MORRIS ELDON W ETALS
SHAW JOHN ETALS
SWAN DONALD ETALS
U S A IRS
TMK:
JDGT IN 17656/556 & C
SIMLOG (see record above) is/was a leasing company — it was a HI registered business but a Washington State Corp. (registered originally in Washington State)
State of HI de-listed/de-certified SIMLOG for failure to file annual reports of some kind.
Research indicates Obama's mother was the front (was a corporate officer) of this business — and may be connected to the IRS Lien against her.
All the players in this game of hoarding US tax$ and doing money laundering schemes have solid connections. In fact, there is even a solid connection between Obama and Thomas Ayers (Bill Ayers father). The same holds true for Peter Geithner (Treasury Secretary Geithner's father). The Fathers of these men were all involved in real-estate schemes while each one claiming to be a "Philanthropist" (aka Communist) and setting up fronts to funnel in Grant money.
The Obama-Ayers connection has been presumed to be only that between Obama and William Ayers. However, there is a direct Obama-Ayers connection between Obama and Thomas G. Ayers (photo), father of William Ayers and the retired president and CEO of Commonwealth Edison, that predates the 2005 mortgage with Northern Trust.
According to the 2001 annual report of the Chicago Public Education Fund, Thomas Ayers and Barack Obama both served as members of the Fund's Leadership Council.
Here it should be mentioned that until May 1994, when he had passed the Company's mandatory retirement age of 75, and was therefore no longer up for re-election, Thomas G. Ayers served on the Finance Committee of the General Dynamics Corp. board of directors with Lester Crown, the largest share holder. It just so happens that Northern Trust was the trustee of the corporation's Salaried Savings Plan and the Hourly Savings Plan overseen by the Committee.
The Obama/Geithner connection:
Peter F. Geithner, Treasury Secretary Geithner's father, worked for the Ford Foundation.
Peter was director of the Asia program at the Ford Foundation, a New World Order (NWO) operation. Peter Geithner oversaw the "microfinance" programs developed in Indonesia by Ann Dunham-Soetoro, Barack Obama's mother.
Did you know that when Son of Stanley was going to school in Los Angeles, he went with a Pakistani friend to visit his mother in Indonesia, who was working for Peter Geithner at that time. After this, he spent a couple weeks in Pakistan, before he abruptly transferred to Columbia in New York where Peter Geithner was headquartered
And now you ask, what about the Saudi Arabia connection?
It reeks of more real-estate fraud (how'd you guess?) Remember Tony Rezko? A Saudi national. Tony Rezko had direct contact to Prince Alwaleed of Saudi Arabia. Obama charmed Rezko as Senator, letting Rezko set up illegal real-estate scams in Obama's Chicago district. Obama got major kick-backs from the illegal Rezko land deals. He also got major donations from his new Sugar Daddy, Prince Alwaleed. Alwaleed was ripe for the plucking, because Alwaleed has been trying to buy up America and control certain businesses, including the media. For example, Alwaleed has millions of shares in Fox News (among other media stations). He bragged about telling Fox to change their tune on Obama or else he'd pull his stock.
These radical Muslims all have a common goal – to destroy Israel. It is why Obama has all the Iranian connections as well. The plan is to build up Iran big-time using US tax$ (including their long-arm Hamas).
Obama has funneled a lot of US tax$ to Iran through a front company called the "Earthquake Relief Fund" set up by one of Obama's clients (AHMAD P BARAVAT) when he was practicing Law.
Guess what Obama was defending Ahmad for? You gessed it right again .. real-estate money laundering.
You can see Ahmad wasn't even that creative with his aliases, but made certain he used the name every Muslim can identify with:
AHMAD P BARAVATI – 1118 BLOOMFIELD RD, CAPE GIRARDEAU MO 63703
AHMAD P BARAVATI – 2001 ROSE DR, COLUMBIA MO 65202
AHMAD P BARAVATI – 435 W DIVERSEY PKWY, CHICAGO IL 60614

HOSSEIN BARAVATTI – 42 FATIMI, CINCINNATI OH 45136
So, now do you think "leaking" the blueprints for Marine One to Iran through a Peer-to-Peer network by Obama was a mistake??
You sure didn't hear it via the MSM, but Computerworld reported it, but with a very nice spin to it as to not be criticized:
From ComputerWorld:
"Classified information about the communications, navigation and management electronics on Marine One, the helicopter now used by President Barack Obama, were reportedly discovered in a publicly available shared folder on a computer in Tehran, Iran, after apparently being accidentally leaked over a peer-to-peer file-sharing network. "
New discovery shows without a doubt, that Stanley A. Dunham is also Kelly A. Dunham and Patricia A. Dunham. Patrcia A. Dunham registered a business (block from where Madelyn is said to have lived) called "Dunham Enterprises" in 2005.

Access Work Service started as an innovation project funded by the Ministry of Community and Social Services in 2008.
Inspiration from its founder, Ilda Furtado, developed and fostered an idea to promote work opportunities beyond those typically found in rural communities.
On April 15, 2011, Access Work Service incorporated as a non-profit organization, governed by a volunteer board of directors. The founding board members of Access Work Service were: Jim Mahaffy, Karen Richardson, Jo-Anne Pacquette, and David Archer.
In September, 2011, AWS moved into an office at the Opeongo Seniors Centre, meeting the needs of staff and the board. Access Work Service operates in Barry's Bay.
Historically, Access Work Service was started to fill the needs of job creation in rural settings, and the need for supported employment in developing a paid labour force of disabled individuals. Our mandate now includes serving the unemployed who face a variety of challenges and barriers to employment.
In 2018, grant recipient from Ontario Trillium Foundation to replicate a proven effective employment program to secure long-term real-world employment for persons with disabilities and related barriers in Barry's Bay and surrounding townships. Leveraging OTF funds to replicate the proven Customized Employment model locally, to ensure that more disabled Ontarians will become meaningfully employed, and retain their jobs for the long term.
On Thursday, April 15/2021 the Ontario Trillium Foundation announced the second round of Resilient Communities Fund grants to support rebuilding capacity of non-profits across Ontario. Our organization, was awarded a Resilient Communities Fund grant over 6 months, to rebuild and recover from impacts of COVID-19 by purchasing health and safety equipment, cellphones, laptops and iPads, cubicles, furniture, filing cabinets to pivot in-person programs to online delivery, enabling staff to work remotely, and updating office space for new distancing protocols.
A key component in the success of AWS has been the establishment of a temporary work force, and providing various services to the community for those who appreciate the help. Services range from lawn maintenance, home, and office cleaning, to providing temporary relief to employers and their business needs. In turn, Access Work Service provides jobs to those in the community who face challenges and barriers to employment.
With continued community support and participation, the future for rural work creation remains positive.

A North Korean Architect's Crazy Visions of the Future
Kyle VanHemert
It's difficult for anyone to imagine the future. But what if you were largely unfamiliar with the present?
Koryo Tours
koryo7
These "Mountain Conicals" pile living quarters high to reduce their footprint in the surrounding river beds. The architect calls for ski runs in the pipes connecting buildings.
That's the fascination at the heart of "Commissions for Utopia," a series of futuristic scenes of North Korea dreamed up by one of the country's promising young architects. The illustrations, currently on view at the Venice Architecture Biennale in Italy, show the buildings of tomorrow as envisioned by someone with little exposure to the architecture of today.
In the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, "architect" is a government job. There are no private projects, and young North Korean architects come out of school with only a faint understanding of the field as it exists outside their deeply isolated country. Recently, however, one young architect was given a rare chance at an outside commission by a client named Nick Bonner.
Bonner holds the unusual distinction of operating the most popular tourist agency to the least-visited country in the world. Born in Britain and trained as a landscape architect, he founded Koryo Tours in Beijing in 1993. Today, the company takes over two thousand tourists into North Korea a year---more than half of all the foreigners who visit.
A concept called "The Big Tree Hotel," situated at the base of scenic Diamond Mountain, on the country's east coast.
As Bonner sees it, North Korea is one of the most interesting places a tourist could hope to visit. Pyongyang, its capital city, was built from the ground-up as a socialist utopia. "As soon as you set eyes on Pyongyang, you realize what an unusual city it is," he says. There are the propaganda posters, the towering public monuments. Beyond that, there's the terrain: scenic coastlines and mountains that make up some eighty percent of the country.
Bonner is convinced North Korea's bound to become a popular tourist destination at some point, especially for those living in the bordering Chinese provinces, where the natural beauty doesn't compare. The question behind "Commissions for Utopia" was, if tourism were to explode, how could it be done sustainably?
>North Korea's top architects have "very limited access to contemporary architecture," Bonner says
The North Korean architect was given free rein to imagine what tomorrow's eco-tourism might look like. One of his illustrations shows a self-sustaining silk cooperative, with massive solar panel-clad wheels and ziggurat-shaped living quarters. Another depicts an aerial hotel, its rooms propped up on stilts and hovering amongst. The architect's "bird's nest villas" are blue, conifer-shaped homes clustered on a mountainside. His "flying house" is basically an apartment in a huge helicopter.
All the creations have an innocent, retro-futurist vibe. They could pass as concept art for the Tomorrowland section of Disney's theme parks. This isn't necessarily surprising. As Bonner points out, many of the buildings in North Korea, erected after the destruction of the Korean War, were similarly influenced by the futuristic leanings of that era. And though the idea with this project was to emphasize local materials and traditional techniques, the buildings are a distinctly local product in another sense: the architect who created them has never left North Korea. "The images are likely to have had only a minor influence from the outside world," Bonner says.
That's not unusual. North Korea's top architects, most of whom work at the Paekho Institue of Architecture, have "very limited access to contemporary architecture," Bonner says. They might be familiar with Frank Lloyd Wright's "Fallingwater," say, or Mies Van Der Rohe's "Barcelona Pavilion," or have seen photographs of some skyscrapers, but there's little understanding of contemporary tools, materials, techniques and trends. This isn't necessarily a matter of government censorship, Bonner points out. It's simply that they don't have exposure to the stuff. When Koryo does architectural tours---it has one coming up in October---they're asked to bring a number of architectural books and magazines into the country for this very purpose.
>For an isolated country, architecture and design could be platforms for communication and engagement.
Speculative architecture might seem like an unusual side-project for a tourism company, but there's very little that's usual about North Korean tourism in the first place. Bonner's been working with the country's strict tourism policies for nearly two decades now, gently pushing back against the state-dictated itineraries to give travelers a more human look at the country. The effort has yielded some unlikely cultural programming. In 2010, Koryo brought a women's soccer team from Middlesborough, England to the country to play the North Korean army team in a friendly. More recently, Bonner and a group of collaborators completed work on Comrade Kim Goes Flying, which Bonner bills as "North Korea's first girl-power film."
The speculative architecture of "Commissions for Utopia," which, as part of the Venice Biennale, is being exhibited among diverse work from both North Korea and South Korea, is yet another effort to build inroads to what is not only an isolated country but also an ignored people. "There are very limited platforms in which both North and South can communicate and engage," Bonner says. "The Venice Biennale showed the opportunities for architecture and design as a common theme."

Over-50s That Have More Sex Have A Better Memory, Study Finds
Jessica Ransom 5 February 2018 1:27 pm
benefits of sex
If you are over 50, having more sex could make a real difference to your heath according to a new study. Researchers found that memory, language skills and visual awareness improved when people had regular intercourse.
A group of 73 people, aged from 50 up to 83, were asked to keep a diary of their sexual habits. They also had their memory and language skills tested and the results are quite interesting.
The researchers from Oxford and Coventry universities found that people over 50-years-old who had more sex had a noticeable improvement in their spacial and visual awareness. The participants' memory and language skills were also much better.
The study aimed to establish if there was a link between sex and mental function and involved 28 men and 45 women. The tests given to the participants included naming as many animals as possible in a minute and then as many words beginning with the letter F.
To test the participants' visual awareness, they were asked to copy a tricky design and draw a clock face from memory. The results showed that those who said they had sex weekly scored on average two percentage points higher on the tests than those who had sex monthly.They scored four points higher than those who never had sex.
Dr Hayley Wright from Coventry University led the study. She said: "People don't like to think that older people have sex – but we need to challenge this conception at a societal level. We also need to look at what impact sexual activity can have on those aged 50 and over."
The results were published in The Journals of Gerontology, Series B: Psychological and Social Sciences. It hoped to build on the study titled 'Sex on the Brain' which was conducted last year by Dr Wright.
Although Dr Wright's study could not prove that more sex definitely led to better health, she says the more tests they do, the closer they are to understanding why the association exits. The findings suggest maintaining an intimate relationship as we age can provide benefits beyond pleasure.
She said: "Every time we do another piece of research we are getting a little bit closer to understanding why this association exists at all, what the underlying mechanisms are, and whether there is a 'cause and effect' relationship between sexual activity and cognitive function in older people."

HollywoodNews.com > *NEWS > "Endings, Beginnings" Is Another Emotional Showcase For Drake Doremus And A Terrific Shailene Woodley Vehicle
Mon, Apr 13 2020 | Published in *NEWS, AWARDS, CELEBS, HEADLINES, MOVIES, MUSIC, REVIEWS, TV
"Endings, Beginnings" Is Another Emotional Showcase For Drake Doremus And A Terrific Shailene Woodley Vehicle
At this point, it's easy to spot a Drake Doremus film when you see one. There are certain hallmarks that are clearly visible, over a half dozen works into his career. For some, his approach to storytelling doesn't work. For others, it's an emotional and often riveting way to invest you in his characters. I've found myself in the latter camp ever since his breakthrough Like Crazy, and his newest movie, the romantic drama Endings, Beginnings, is another home run. Showcasing the yearning for human connection that we all share, Doremus once again will rock you to your core. This time around, he also has another stunning performance the center of his movie, with Shailene Woodley doing some of the best work of her career. Available to watch on Digital this Friday, it's one of the best flicks of the year so far.
The film is a romantic drama and a character study, set over the course of one year in the life of our protagonist Daphne (Woodley). Having picked up her life and moved in with her sister Billie (Lindsay Sloane) in an effort to start fresh, she's also sworn off dating and men for this period. However, at a party she winds up meeting two gentlemen, best friends Frank (Sebastian Stan) and Jack (Jamie Dornan). Both are interested in her, initially unaware of each other's courtship, and offer up two very different types of guy for Daphne. She resists their charms initially, seeking to just be friends, but in short order, a love triangle emerges. Frank is volatile and unpredictable, though they share a deep lust. Jack is calm and reliable, but does he generate that spark for her? As she navigates this situation, she also recalls a past trauma that set her on this particular path. It all dovetails into an ending you won't see coming, but leaves Daphne in an absolutely perfect place. Doremus directs and co-writes with Jardine Libaire, with cinematography from Marianne Bakke. Supporting players include Matthew Gray Gubler, Wendie Malick, Kyra Sedgwick, and more.
Shailene Woodley turns in one of her absolute best performances here. She's so open with her emotions, you feel every single thing that Daphne feels. Doremus keeps the camera close on her, studying her, as if trying to figure the character out. Woodley herself is doing the same, and it's engrossing to witness. She's rarely been better than she is in this flick, and it's a credit to Doremus, as well as herself, that they dig this deep. Jamie Dornan and Sebastian Stan are strong as well, leaning in to the archetypes they're playing, as well as finding the unique notes that define their characters. Both Dornan and Stan have excellent chemistry with Woodley, which is essential for the movie's success. The cast is impeccable, to say the least.
Drake Doremus just has a way of telling a story that keeps you glued to the screen. The tight cinematography from Marianne Bakke is always observing faces, the color scheme is vivid, and the emotional resonance is deep. Everything felt by a character in the film, and especially by Daphne, is real. If there's a tiny flaw, it's that Doremus and co-writer Jardine Libaire stretch things out a little more than necessary. A running time shaved by five or ten minutes would have made this a more compact and even more tense experience. It's a small quibble, but the lax pacing is noticeable. You won't care too much, since you'll be invested in Daphne's life, but still. Other than that, this is one of his most accomplished films, on a directorial level.
Endings, Beginnings doesn't just want to move you to tears. It also wants to make you appreciate life, love, and even find some joy by the end of it all. It's a tightrope that Doremus has walked many times before, sometimes operating on a strictly relationship level, like with Like Crazy or Newness, though on other occasions, like with Equals and Zoe, he's brought a science fiction element to it. There's no sci-fi here, and at the outset, the movie seems to more related to his intense and observational Breathe In. Then, she romantic element reveals itself and it becomes very much a combination of several things that the filmmaker has explored before. If you've appreciated any of those prior works, you'll be fond of what he's doing here, as well.
This weekend, fans of Doremus as well as Woodley have a fantastic option to watch when Endings, Beginnings hits Digital, before moving to On Demand next month. Truly one of the more powerful works of 2020 to date, it's an engrossing work that deserves your full attention. If you have any investment in character studies, you should definitely give this film a shot. You'll be glad that you did, truly…
Be sure to check out Endings, Beginnings, available on Digital starting on Friday, and then On Demand May 1!

Home › News › Funerals
by Michael Ford — last modified 19 Mar, 2020 08:52 PM
The Church of England has issued new advice to ensure funerals can continue safely amid the current restrictions in light of the current outbreak of coronavirus COVID-19.
View it here
Guidance available on the Church of England website makes clear that Christian funerals will continue but with some adaptations because of the exceptional circumstances.
It acknowledges that the changes will be very difficult but are being made to protect everyone.
Recommendations include limiting the numbers of those attending the funeral to immediate family and using technology to capture the event for those who are unable to be there in person.
The guidance makes clear that social distancing measures should be observed for those attending the funeral in person.
The Bishop of Gloucester, the Rt Revd Rachel Treweek, said: "When someone we love dies, it is a time of great sadness.
"Funerals are significant events to mark the end of a person's life here on earth, and family and friends come together to express grief, give thanks for the life lived and commend the person into God's keeping.
"As we adapt to the threat of COVID-19 in our society the nature of funerals is having to change because we all need to be keeping people safe in lines with government guidelines.
"However, while funerals are going to be different for the foreseeable future we remain committed to offering pastoral and spiritual support as we share the love and hope of Jesus Christ."

Studio portraits in the pictorialist style, followed by shows of minorities such as the Shaker, Memmonite and Dunker communities.
Ulmann photographed from the 1910s until her death in 1934, concentrating on portrait work. Her images of both well-known Americans and rural southern blacks were published in numerous books during her lifetime.
Doris Ulmann was born into an affluent New York City family on May 29, 1882. She took teacher training with photographer Lewis W. Hine at the Ethical Culture School from 1900 to 1903 and subsequently studied psychology and law at Columbia University. In about 1915, she married Dr. Charles H. Jaeger (who also photographed), whose last name she used until her divorce ten years later.
Around 1910, Ulmann began studying photography with Clarence H. White, the guiding light of pictorialism at the time. She took classes with him at both Columbia's Teachers College and the White School of Photography in New York. When the White school moved to a new location in 1920, a solo show of her photographs inaugurated its gallery. By this time she was a member of the Pictorial Photographers of America (PPA), a group that included reproductions of her work in four of its annuals during the 1920s, titled Pictorial Photography in America. In 1929, she provided a cover image for the group's bulletin, Light and Shade.
Ulmann exhibited with the PPA and elsewhere. An Exhibition of Pictorial Photography by American Artists, organized and traveled by the PPA in 1917, included work by her and her husband. In 1923, the group accepted pictures by her for its first salon, seen in New York, and circulated an exhibition of photographs by Imogen Cunningham, Laura Gilpin, and Ulmann. Her work was included in salons in Los Angeles in 1920 and 1924, and Pittsburgh four times during the 1920s. The Delphic Studios in New York gave her one-person exhibitions in 1929 and 1933.
Ulmann devoted herself to professional photography in 1918. She began making softly focused portraits in her living room of famous individuals in literature and the arts. Within the next decade, three deluxe gravure-printed books of her portraits appeared: Twenty-four Portraits of the Faculty of Physicians and Surgeons of Columbia University (1919), A Book of Portraits of the Medical Faculty of the Johns Hopkins University (1922), and A Portrait Gallery of American Editors (1925).
In about 1925, after divorcing her husband, Ulmann began to photograph rural folk along the East Coast. Initially, she worked in New England, concentrating on Amish, Mennonite, and Shaker communities. After 1927, she traveled with folklorist John Jacobs Niles to remote areas of the Appalachian Mountains, producing her best-known work there over the next several years. She also made portraits of the black residents of a South Carolina plantation; these were used to illustrate Julia Peterkin's book, Roll, Jordan, Roll, published in 1933.
Doris Ulmann was well connected enough in 1934 to have dinner at the Roosevelt White House. Later that year, she fell ill while photographing on the road in the South. She died at her New York home on August 28, 1934.
Studied with Clarence White. Her photographs provide a respectful portrait of the rural culture and craftspeople of the southern highlands of the Appalachian Mountains and the Gullahs of the Sea Islands of South Carolina. Bringing pictorialist techniques to documentary work, she used a view camera and made platinum prints based on her annual "folklore and photographic expeditions." Her images provide an important ethnographic and historical record.

'Decline of Western Civilization' director Penelope Spheeris on the pain of reliving the past, and the noble cause of helping others
Penelope Spheeris photo by Suzanne Allison
Between December 1979 and May 1980, director Penelope Spheeris shot The Decline of Western Civilization, documenting the exploits of Black Flag, the Germs, X, the Circle Jerks, and the denizens of L.A.'s early punk scene. The film spawned two sequels, 1988's The Decline of Western Civilization Part II: The Metal Years, and 1998's The Decline of Western Civilization III—each offering a look into the lives of musicians in various states of desperation. Spheeris' Decline trilogy changed the world's perceptions of punk and metal forever. Although she achieved mainstream success directing later films such as Wayne's World, The Beverly Hillbillies, and The Little Rascals, it is her work with Decline that defines her career.
Spheeris took a few minutes to talk about the pain of reliving the past, reconnecting with her daughter, and the noble cause of helping other people.
The mark of a truly timeless work of art is that you can revisit it 35 years later and find new meaning and relevance, maybe in wholly different ways than what you originally intended. How has the meaning of The Decline of Western Civilization changed for you?
Having done the films so long ago—I really shied away from watching them for so many years. I asked my daughter if she would come to work for me. She said she would but only if I released the Decline movies first. I thought, 'Oh God, what a nightmare.' But what has been very gratifying is to experience other people watching them 20 and 30 years later. That, for me, is astounding. When I look at them, I don't think that I did something profound, but that is what other people say. I was just making movies about subjects I was interested in. They kind of turned out, all these decades later, to be interesting to other people. It's been a real weird trip, I'll tell you that.
I get the impression that you feel some anxiety over these films. Why do you say it was a nightmare to revisit them?
Anxiety … That's an understatement. I have a lot of anxiety over these films. If you think about it, as a filmmaker or as any kind of creative person, you want to have the product of your creativity seen by other people, and hopefully appreciated. For me, so many of the movies I've done—certainly Decline I and III, not so much with II—were not really ever seen on a legitimate platform. Decline I was bootlegged to death. People passed it around like underground contraband for decades because it wasn't in distribution. It was extremely painful for me to go back and deal with these movies because, on a subconscious level, they brought up a lot of pain. That pain was that people couldn't see my work; people who seemingly were interested in it.
That happened with a film I did with Sharon and Ozzy, We Sold Our Souls for Rock 'n' Roll. Nobody got to see it. It happened with Dudes, which I did with Jon Cryer and Flea. It happened with The Boys Next Door that I did with Charlie Sheen. I had a long history of making movies that didn't get seen. On the other hand, when I would do a comedy, it would definitely be seen. Especially Wayne's World.
The thing to be said is that it's hard to hide truly brilliant work. Even without distribution, I found a bootleg of Decline I in Omaha, Neb., in the early '90s. That film put a face on punk rock for me and many others. It also made my relationship with the music more complicated—I had to put my life's situation into context. I learned more about myself from Decline than I did from Wayne's World—even though Wayne's World is a fun movie.
Yeah, and the anxiety that comes along with putting out a box set is that, like you, I personally identify a lot more with the Decline movies than I do with the studio comedies. So I wanted it to be done right. When I am dead and gone, I want the right piece of physical items there to represent what they are. Once you do it, it's done. It's not like I can redo that. So that's why there was so much trepidation involved with doing it. Now it's like okay, you did it. Now you can die.
That has to be sort of rewarding.
What's rewarding is that it's no longer bearing down on me like a big dark cloud. For that, I really have to thank my daughter. Without her, I would have just died without doing it. I swear to God. It was just painful. Just watching the movies brought up so many memories, and she kept coming up with more pieces for the extras, which included a lot of interviews with me and with people I know from way back in the day. It was just hard to look at it. It's like having your life flash before you. I just like to keep moving forward. I don't like to look back. That's why they never got put out before.
When you look back over the films—all three of them—are there subjects that stand out for you, or that you walked away from with some insight?
For Decline I, when I look at that movie I think, jeez, it's pretty amazing that so many elements of today's young people's lives originated way back then. Now everybody has their tattoos and tight jeans and they have their haircuts, and it all started back then. So many social trends and philosophical ways of thinking started back then. So, for those reasons, I'm glad I was able to document all of that.
I don't think there's a profound lesson to be learned in Decline II except for trying to make it for the wrong reasons is stupid. That's a pretty easy one.
For me, Decline III is the most important film of my entire career. It made me realize that I don't want to be working in Hollywood anymore. There are more important things in life, and I should go help homeless kids, which is what I have done. If you go see it, bring a Kleenex, because it's a heartbreaker. It was so hard to get it released because it is extremely sad. It reveals some really terrible domestic situations that happen with young kids that make them leave their homes and go live in the streets. Those are my buddies. Those are my family — the Decline III kids. Those are the people I'm close to.
There's a kid named Eugene in that first film. I don't have the same kind of anger in me, but I found him to be such a compelling character. How did you find him, and do you ever cross paths with him? Do you know how his life turned out?
He was friends with the HB kids—Huntington Beach, surfer punks. I saw Eugene up on the Slash office's roof and I asked if he would be interviewed for the film. He kept saying no, but finally I talked him into it. He was 14 years old at that time. And he is very compelling. That's why he starts the movie out. Today he lives in Berlin. I just sent him his 50 year-old birthday present. He's a very good friend. He's a folk singer. He's known now as Euge From the Coast. He's very happy in Berlin, and we email each other about once a week.
How have these films played a role in your relationship with your daughter Anna?
We sure do know each other a lot better after spending four years in the same room together!
Were the two of you estranged before this project?
In a way. When she was Four years old, her father died from a heroin overdose. So I raised her as a single parent. I think it wasn't until it hit me in the face that addiction is extremely genetic. Five years ago, she had a drug problem that could have ended very tragically. We were fortunate enough that it didn't. She wrecked a car with a kid in it. But she did a really good job with rehab and I said, "You have to come to work for me." I wanted to keep an eye on her and make sure she didn't relapse. She said she would do it, but we had to do Decline. You never know if something is bad or good until some time has passed. It was the most horrible thing in my life to deal with my daughter having that problem. But from out of that mess came this thing that people appreciate quite a bit—this box set for the DVDs.
She had been in touch with so many of the people who've been in the movies. She's quite in touch with the people from Decline I and II. Whereas I'm the Decline III woman here. Those are my friends.
Honestly, Anna deserves 90% of the credit for the movies being seen again. I did the movies way back, but they would have never been seen in this form by so many people if she hadn't virtually put a gun to my head and said you have got to do this. It was daunting and horrible. I would avoid it at all costs. She was down there with three editors at one time, sorting things out. She would have to drag me down to the editing room because I didn't want to deal with it. For that, I am extremely grateful that she made me do it. She was so smart about so many things. She uncovered a lot and was like an archaeologist. A lot of the old tapes and old formats wouldn't even play. She had to go and borrow chunks of equipment from friends—a DAT player—because nothing else would play them. She just kept going and going and going.
I could definitely see the evolution with the punks between Decline I and III. In Decline III, each individual was so much more tolerant, and kind, and not mean to the people that might be different from them. So there was some sort of evolution going on there. Flea is in Decline III and describes the original L.A. punk scene as being like an experimental art scene. Whereas in Decline III, even though everybody looks the same, physically, it's not an art scene anymore. It's pure and dire survival, and there ain't no room for art in that world.
I think about those scenes from the first film and how all of the Black Flag guys lived in that church. That seemed dire…
It was fun dire. They were embracing their homelessness. They just had a different take on it. It wasn't hurtful for them. It was fun. For the kids in Decline III, it's painful.
What I learned from Decline III in getting to know those kids and their background: We don't have any more noble assignment in life than helping our children and doing the right thing for them. These kids come from alcoholic and drug-addicted families that fought all the time and threw them out in the street.
It doesn't make me feel good to sit down and have lunch with some major studio executive. Who gives a shit? It's so vapid. What makes me feel good is being a foster parent. Staying in touch with my Decline III buddies, and going to these various cities and selling posters and donating the money to homeless shelters for kids. That, to me, is what makes life good. The rest of that jerk off stuff is so unnecessary. It's funny to me that people get into such a frenzy to come to Hollywood and say "I have to make it in Hollywood!" Are you kidding me? No, you don't! I guess I can say that because I kinda sorta made it, but not really. It doesn't have any meaning next to helping people.

The mod_proxy module handles a multitude of proxying and caching capabilities for the server. Proxies enforce security by screening and relaying requests made by a client; caches help to optimize transfer by storing recently requested information.
This sets the default expiry time, in hours, of a document in the cache, assuming an expiry has not already been set. The default is one hour. After the document has been expired, the client must refetch it directly from the server.
This directive sets the number of characters a directory can contain in the proxy cache.
This directive sets the number of subdirectories in the cache.
This directive specifies the minimum percentage of a document required in order for it to be cached. This is useful in the event a document is canceled before completing a transfer. The default is 90 percent.
This directive instructs the server to garbage-collect the cache if the space usage is greater than the size specified by the CacheSize directive. The collection is performed every time hours. You can specify a noninteger for the time if you want to perform garbage collections between hours.
This directive estimates an expiry date for a document by multiplying the factor specified by the time since the last modification. This is effective only if an expiry date for a document has not been set already. If the expiration date is greater than CacheMaxExpire, CacheMaxExpire is used instead.
This directive specifies the maximum amount of time a document should remain active. Once past this time, it is considered "expired" and should be reloaded directly from the server.
This directive sets the name of the directory that will contain cache files.
This directive sets the maximum size, in kilobytes, of the cache. Once this size is exceeded, no more data is written to the cache.
The server searches for any such word in the title of the document. If one is found, the document is not cached.
A document that originates from the target host isn't cached.
Documents originating from any domain in the list are not cached.
Note that you are allowed to use wildcards. The last example forces the server not to cache any documents at all.
The server searches for any such word in the title of the document. If one is found, the document is blocked.
A document that originates from the target host will be blocked.
Documents originating from any domain in the list are blocked.
Handles redirects made by a server pointed to by the ProxyPass directive by modifying the Location header in the HTTP redirect response. This directive alters redirect references to a specific path to the corresponding url.
Currently, http is the only scheme supported for the remote-server parameter.
Note that even though proxy requests are deactivated, the ProxyPass directives are still valid.

Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is the death of tissue in the intestine. It occurs most often in premature or sick babies.
NEC occurs when the lining of the intestinal wall dies. This problem nearly always develops in an infant who is ill or premature. It is likely to occur while the infant is still in the hospital.
The exact cause of this disorder is unknown. A drop in blood flow to the bowel can damage the tissue. Bacteria in the intestine may also add to the problem. Also, premature infants have an undeveloped immune response to factors such as bacteria or low blood flow. An imbalance in immune regulation appears to be involved in NEC.
The infant will need surgery if there is a hole in the intestines or inflammation of the abdominal wall (peritonitis).
The bowel may be reconnected after several weeks or months when the infection has healed.
Necrotizing enterocolitis is a serious disease. Up to 40% of infants with NEC die from it. Early, aggressive treatment can help improve the outcome.
Get emergency medical care if any symptoms of necrotizing enterocolitis develop. Infants who are hospitalized for illness or prematurity are at higher risk of NEC. They are watched closely for this problem before they are sent home.

BAGHDAD >> A senior Iraqi commander in the western Anbar province says at least 40 soldiers were killed in recent suicide bombings carried out by Islamic State militants and another 68 have been captured.
Lt. Gen. Rasheed Fleih provided the details on the dead and missing troops Monday. He says the soldiers disappeared during a siege on the town of Sijir on Sunday and have likely been taken to the nearby city of Fallujah. There has been no communication with any of the captured soldiers.
A second official, who spoke anonymously as he is not authorized to brief the media, says 700 troops immediately withdrew from the area following the attack. The militants launched attacks involving suicide bombers on the Iraqi troops in Sijir on Sunday, sparking clashes, security officials said.

Q: Isomorphism between Spin(3,2) and Sp(4, R) I've been using the fact that Spin(3,2) is isomorphic to Sp(4, R) for a while, but I've never seen a proof. Can anyone point me in the direction of a good reference?

A: Here is a coordinate-free version.  Let $(V, \psi)$ be a 4-dimensional symplectic space over a field, and let $\omega \in (\wedge^2 V)^{\ast} = \wedge^2(V^{\ast})$ be the nonzero 2-form arising from $\psi$. Then on the 6-dimensional vector space $W = \wedge^2(V)$ the kernel of $\omega$ is a hyperplane $H$ of dimension 5, and on $W$ there is a natural non-degenerate quadratic form $q$ valued in the line $\wedge^4(V)$ via $q(w) = (1/2)(w \wedge w)$ for $w \in W$ (e.g., if $w = e_1 \wedge e_2 + e_3 \wedge e_4$ for a basis $\{e_i\}$ of $W$ then $q(w) = e_1 \wedge e_2 \wedge e_3 \wedge e_4$); the definition of $q$ uses base change from the $\mathbf{Z}_{(2)}$-flat case for $(V,\psi)$ if $2$ isn't a unit.
By computing in linear coordinates of $V$ that "standardize" $\psi$ we see that $q$ is a split quadratic form on $W$, and the action of ${\rm{SL}}(V)$ on $W$ clearly preserves $q$ while the action of its subgroup ${\rm{Sp}}(V,\psi)$ preserves $H$.  Hence, the action on $H$ defines a map
$${\rm{Sp}}(V,\psi) \rightarrow {\rm{O}}(q|_H),$$
so this lands inside ${\rm{SO}}(q|_H)$ and as such defines a homomorphism $${\rm{Sp}}_4 = {\rm{Sp}}(V,\psi) \rightarrow {\rm{SO}}(q|_H) = {\rm{SO}}_5.$$
This map kills the center $\mu_2$ inside ${\rm{Sp}}_4$, and thereby identifies ${\rm{Sp}}_4$ as the degree-2 "simply connected" central cover of ${\rm{SO}}_5$ (in the sense of algebraic groups).  Hence, this uniquely lifts to an isomorphism of ${\rm{Sp}}_4$ onto ${\rm{Spin}}_5$.
A nice feature of this conceptual construction is that it kills two birds with one stone: if we don't restrict to $H$ and instead work with the entire 6-dimensional $W$ then a similar construction defines the isomorphism of ${\rm{SL}}_4 = {\rm{SL}}(V)$ onto ${\rm{Spin}}_6$.

A: By coincidence, I put up a protraced working-out of several of these examples today, at http://www.math.umn.edu/~garrett/m/v/sporadic_isogenies.pdf
Edit: Over algebraically closed fields (especially in char not $2$, which I want to not think about), these sporadic isogenies are easy to write down. In principle, but I think not in practice for most of us, to see what happens over not algebraically closed fields is a question of "Galois cohomology", as in Weil's "Algebras and classical groups" paper. For me, it's much easier to use a few coordinates. E.g., although $SU(4)\rightarrow SO(6)$ and $SU(2,2)\rightarrow SO(4,2)$, apparently $SU(3,1)$ does not map to $SO(p,q)$ with $p+q=6$. Meanwhile, $SL_2(\mathbb H)\rightarrow SO(5,1)$. Seems weird to me.

Marriott press release notifications have become an unexpected source of entertainment for me. The past year they have become the best travel industry source for obfuscation and ridiculousness.
Here's Dial 0 For Lip Service: Le Meridien Hotels & Resorts Taps Bespoke Beauty Brand La Bouche Rouge To Celebrate The Romance Of Travel With A Fresh-Take On The Signature French Red Lip.
To publicly support or approve of something, while actually taking no action to produce it.
To pay lip service to loyalty program customer concerns would be a step up from the dismissiveness of tone-deaf CEO Arne 'Noise around the edges' Sorenson.
One of the customer service pain points is calling Marriott: a telephone IVR that makes it difficult to reach a human, long hold times, and poorly trained agents (especially outside US Eastern time zone business hours). Allegedly, Marriott made severe call center cuts, though they could have accomplished similar by simply not ramping up for the added former Starwood volume.
Let's have some fun programming the Marriott IVR. If 0 gets you lip service, what are 1-9?
0 for Lip Service is code for the amount of times you'll be able to use your free night certs at Le Merdian hotels. 1-9 are the Bonoyed levels of hell they are subjecting loyal customers. 666 is the marketing department.
I disagree. I don't think that Marriott paying lip service to the plethora of customer complaints would be a good thing. I'd rather have things the way they are where Marriott is clear that the customer is the enemy. It's at least clear and honest.
@Stephen – 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9!

Granted, a single scene doesn't necessarily wreck an entire film, but in a genre where the tone is often more important than the plot itself, one wonky moment can seriously undermine things. Without getting into specifics that would spoil the party, near the end of the film, there's a plot-twist that's creative, clever and makes complete sense within the context of the story. The scene immediately cuts to black, and had the credits rolled right there, the movie would have ended on a haunting, ominous note. Instead, we get a ridiculous coda that feels tacked-on for the sole purpose of providing a gratuitous jump-scare.


An RFP can be the start of a long and fruitful relationship between client and trusted advisor, so it is important to get them right. Good RFPs can lead to good proposals and constructive working relationships from the outset which in turn lead to better deliverables and outcomes.
Introduce your organisation and the purpose of the RFP. State not only what you want done but also why.
Describe your organisation, what it does, and what you do. By describing your values, you're more likely to find a firm that's a good value fit both for your goals and team.
The more clearly you articulate what you want out of working together, the more likely you are to get it. Explain what outcome you have in mind and the most important elements of the work.
Be explicit about what must be delivered, and describe all the services you know that you will require from intelligence-gathering to strategic advice and advocacy.
All key dates need to be laid out for the work programme. Give your project timeline with major tasks and milestones.
If there are any specific requirements such as exclusivity, capability in an EU Member State or experience of a particular policy area they should be laid out in the RFP.
Ask for the names, titles, and bios of your team. It is important to know who you will work with on a regular basis, and within the firm's team who will be responsible for each element and their relevant experience. Public affairs teams are only as good as the people in them.
It is a waste of everybody's time to prepare a proposal that's way out of your range. By stating explicitly what you want to pay, even as a range, you permit firms to compete with each other for what they will offer you at a comparable price.
Public affairs is notoriously hard to measure and each organisation has their own metrics and approach. Giving an insight into how your organisation will assess success after the project or one year will really help your consultants.
Each firm will have different strengths, reputations, and capabilities, and you need to set out how you will assess the quality of the proposals and decide the winning bid. You should ask for examples of similar work with other clients and their references.
These days most RFP responses are sent by email but if you want the proposal in PPT, PDF or Word be clear.
Lay out a deadline for receipt of the submission, for selecting the shortlist, for scheduling interviews and for final selection. Also identify who to contact from your organisation with questions.
For what services do you/would you seek support from PA consultants?


In December, American Vogue decreed that Asian models are all the rage. Six months later, British Vogue is saying the same thing in its June 2011 issue with Alexa Chung on the cover. (See what they did there? Asians, Asians, everywhere!) This is great and all–that Asians have become the new It Bag–but in hailing the so-called "rise of the Asian model," British Vogue incorrectly identified Liu Wen, first Asian model to walk in a Victoria's Secret show and be a face for Estee Lauder, as her Chinese compatriot Du Juan, first Asian model to appear on the cover of French Vogue.

Noted film critic and a pioneer of the film society movement in India, Chidananda Dasgupta died in Kolkata on Sunday night, following a brief illness.
The 89-year-old father of eminent actress-director Aparna Sen was suffering from acute broncho pneumonia and Parkinson's disease, doctors attending on him said. Aparna was away in the United States when her father died.
Born in Shillong in 1922, Dasgupta, along with close associate and master director Satyajit Ray and Hari Sadhan Dasgupta, founded the Calcutta Film Society soon after India's independence in 1947 with the screening of legendary Russian director Sergei Eisenstein's classic film "Battleship Potemkin". The organisation was the harbinger of new wave cinema in the country, playing an important role in making world cinema accessible to Indian viewers.
Dasgupta played a leading role in setting up the Federation of Film Societies of India, which also contributed to enhancing cinematic sense among budding directors, actors and filmgoers. Although he donned many roles -- of a lecturer, adman and writer, it was as a film critic that Chidananda Dasgupta is best known, as he was one of those who made a niche as a serious commentator on cinema. He wrote over 2,000 articles on cinema in several periodicals and magazines and in 1980 authored "The Cinema of Satyajit Ray", regarded as one of the most authentic research works on the master director. Among his other books are "Talking about Films" and "Unpopular Cinema". The hallmark of his analysis of films was that they were scholarly and yet easily understood by even lay readers.
Dasgupta directed seven films: "The Stuff Of Steel" (1969); "The Dance of Shiva" (1968); "Portrait of a City" (1961); "Amodini" (1994), which featured his daughter Aparna Sen and granddaughter Konkona; "Zaroorat Ki Purti" (1979); "Rakhto" (1973) and "Bilet Pherat" (1972). He was given the lifetime achievement award at the Osian Film Festival in Delhi 2004.

This does sound like a sweet story.
I liked this one, too! And I loved the scenes with the kids – so sweet!!!
I haven't read this author yet…sounds like I must. Thanks for sharing.
I haven't read Robyn Carr yet. I should. Does the book stand alone or should it be read as part of the series?
I'm glad Scott gets his story, though I'm surprised it took until book #5. I'm behind on this series — trying to work my way through Virgin River too!
Karen reviews this series on my blog and I know she enjoys them. I've only read the one Robyn Carr, Four Friends and I loved it so I should make a start on these.


The Fish Friendly Farming Environmental Certification Program is run by the California Land Stewardship Institute, a non-profit organization located in Napa County, California.
The Fish Friendly Farming (FFF) program was written by Laurel Marcus in 1999 and sponsored for its first five years by the Sotoyome Resource Conservation District in Santa Rosa. Grapegrowers, representatives from government agencies, and environmental groups participated in an advisory committee to review the program. The result was a workbook of Beneficial Management Practices (BMPs) and a Farm Conservation Plan Template.
The FFF program was written specifically for the Russian River watershed and amended for use in the Navarro and Gualala River watersheds as growers in these areas requested the program. In 2002, the Napa Valley Vintners Association, Napa County Grapegrowers Association and the Napa County Farm Bureau brought the FFF program to Napa County. The Napa County Resource Conservation District served as the local sponsor and Laurel Marcus developed a version of the FFF program specifically for the Napa River watershed.
Over time, the FFF program has grown to operate in ten counties: Mendocino, Sonoma, Napa, Solano, Amador, Placer, Santa Clara, Humboldt, Kern, and El Dorado. Due to the popularity of the program, a non-profit organization, the California Land Stewardship Institute, was formed in 2004 to run Fish Friendly Farming and associated projects. To date, over 150,000 acres have been enrolled in the program.

Pass Rates for Foreign Language and Geometry Countywide Exams Display Differences in Achievement
Students passed the countywide semester exams for high school foreign languages at a rate of 83 percent and honors geometry at a rate of 92 percent, but the pass rate fell to 55 percent among those students taking the regular geometry course.
The new data is contained in a report to the Board of Education that provides data for individual high schools on all three exams.
The different passing rates in geometry reflect the same differences in the passing rates in algebra for the first semester this year among those students who took the accelerated program in middle school and those who took the regular course in high school. The accelerated students passed the exams in both algebra and geometry at high rates (87 and 92 percent respectively). By comparison, the regular algebra and geometry courses had passing rates on the semester exams of 36 and 55 percent respectively.
Significant differences in achievement were also evident in scores disaggregated by race and ethnicity, although less so among students on the foreign language exams.
The foreign language exam used a pass/fail threshold score of 55 for the first semester that will be raised to 60 for the current second semester exams. The threshold score was 60 for both the regular and honors geometry courses, the same minimum score used in the semester exams for algebra.
The following is the countywide results on the foreign language and geometry exams:
* The foreign language exams (combined for French and Spanish) had a pass rate of 83 percent countywide. The pass rate was 68 percent among African American students, 86 percent among Hispanic students, 89 percent among Asian American students, and 87 percent among white students.
* The pass rate for the honors geometry exams was 92 percent countywide. Among African American students, the pass rate was 76 percent, 84 percent among Hispanic students, 92 percent among Asian students, and 95 percent among white students.
* In the regular geometry exam, the pass rate was 55 percent countywide. The pass rate was 34 percent among African American students, 36 percent among Hispanic students, 67 percent among Asian American students, and 69 percent among white students.
A more detailed review of student performance is underway. In addition, new initiatives involving teacher training, summer school intervention, and the assignment of instructional specialists beginning this summer are focused specifically on algebra and mathematics. The initiatives are part of a carefully phased-in plan for improvements in reading, writing, and mathematics systemwide and support for the elementary and secondary instructional program. This includes extensive teacher training and development, early childhood education, and community partnerships.
In addition, the Board of Education recently authorized Phi Delta Kappa International, a major educational research organization, to conduct a comprehensive audit of the entire Kindergarten through twelfth grade mathematics curriculum. The audit, which will be completed this summer, will address the question of whether the school system has a challenging curriculum and an operationally sound instructional management and delivery system.
The specific exam data or each test, disaggregated by high school and race and ethnicity, can be found on the follwing websites. There are three sites. The first site contains the results for the regular geometry exam at .
The sites for the other two exams are listed below:

LAN Co-Op: 4 Players
Left 4 Dead 2's Marketing Budget 2.5x the Original
News 10/6/2009 at 8:40 AM by Nick Puleo 7
When the original Left 4 Dead launched with a marketing budget of 10 million dollars, we were quite impressed. That's chump change compared to the Benjamins being thrown behind Left 4 Dead 2, something to the tune of 25 million dollars.
Even though the game has set a record for the most preorders of any game in Valve history, the company feels it can do better.
"Based on the strength of pre-orders, Left 4 Dead 2 will be the fastest-selling product in Valve's history," said Gabe Newell, president of Valve. "Left 4 Dead 2 has consistently run at 300% of Left 4 Dead's numbers."
Despite the controversy when the game was announced, these numbers indicated the game is going to do just fine for Valve. With melee weapons, the AI Director 2.0, five campaigns, four game modes, and plenty of new enemies - Left 4 Dead 2 is going to be another juggernaut this crowded fall gaming season.

The phone is driven by a 2.2GHz octa-core Snapdragon 630 chipset, with Adreno 508 GPU assistance, and 4GB RAM + 64GB storage assistance. Optically, the smartphone might feature a dual rear camera setup of 12MP primary sensor having a 78-degree lens and f/1.7 aperture, beside a secondary camera of 5MP, having a 79-degree lens and f/2.2 aperture, along with dual-tone, dual-lens LED flashlight. For the front, the G6 Plus employs an 8MP camera bearing 80-degree lens and f/2.2 aperture, along with a selfie flash.
The internal memory is expandable via microSD card, up to 128 GB. Connectivity features on Moto G6 Plus include 4G LTE, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, USB Type-C, NFC, 3.5mm audio jack, beside the usual set of sensors. The phone will draw power from a 3,200mAh battery, with support from Motorola's TurboPower adaptor, which the company claims, will deliver 7 hours of usage with 15 minutes charging. Moto G6 Plus measures 159.9×75.5×7.99mm, and weighs 165 grams.
For now, there is no detail available regarding Moto G6 Plus price in India. Motorola had initially launched this smartphone in Brazil for EUR 299, that would approximate to INR 24,350, and isn't expected to vary much in India.
The device was launched in Indigo and Gold colour options.
