A timeline of mathematics and theoretical physics

1901 Max Planck makes his quantum hypothesis -- that energy is carried by indistinguishable units called quanta, rather than flowing in a pure continuum. This hypothesis leads to a successful derivation of the black body radiation law, now called Planck's Law, although in 1901 the quantum hypothesis as yet had no experimental support. The unit of quantum action is now called Planck's constant.
1905 Swiss patent clerk Albert Einstein proposes Planck's quantum hypothesis as the physics underlying the photoelectric effect. Planck wins the Nobel Prize in 1918, and Einstein in 1921, for developing quantum theory, one of the two most important developments in 20th century physics.
1905 Einstein publishes his simple, elegant Special Theory of Relativity, making mincemeat of his competition by relying on only two ideas: 1. The laws of physics are the same in all inertial frames, and 2. The speed of light is the same for all inertial observers.
1905 Poincaré shows that Lorentz transformations in space and time plus rotations in space form a group, which comes to be known as the Lorentz group. The Lorentz group plus translations in space form a group called the Poincaré group.
1907 Minkowski publishes Raum und Zeit (Space and Time), and establishes the idea of a spacetime continuum
1909 Hilbert's work on integral equations later leads to the concept of a Hilbert space in quantum mechanics
1915 Emmy Noether publishes Noether's Theorem, discovering the relationship between symmetries and conserved currents that was crucial to the later development of quantum gauge field theory and string theory
1915 Einstein, with Hilbert in stiff competition, publishes his stunning General Theory of Relativity, and is lucky enough to be able to find observational support for his theory right away, in the perihelial advance of Mercury, and the deflection of starlight by the Sun.
1916 German astrophysicist Karl Schwarzschild, serving on the Russian front in WWI, mails Einstein his paper on the Schwarzschild metric and Einstein presents it at a meeting of the Prussian Academy of Sciences. Six months and another major paper later, Schwarzschild dies of illness on the front.
1921 Theodor Kaluza follows Einstein's advice and publishes his highly unorthodox ideas about unifying gravity with electromagnetism by adding an extra dimension of space that is compactified into a small circle. Kaluza-Klein compactification will become a rich subject of exploration in particle theory 60 years later.
1925 Werner Heisenberg shows that his quantized probability operators form a non-commutative algebra. Born and Jordan point out to him that this is a matrix algebra, and the matrix formulation of quantum mechanics is born. He gets the Nobel Prize in 1932.
1924 Louis duc de Broglie proposes the particle-wave duality of the electron in his doctoral thesis at the Sorbonne. He gets the Nobel Prize in 1929.
1926 After learning of the work of de Broglie, Erwin Schrödinger develops his wave equation version of quantum mechanics, and unravels its relationship to the matrix formulation of quantum mechanics by Heisenberg. He shares the Nobel Prize with Dirac in 1933.
1926 Young Cambridge math student Paul Dirac discovers the operator algebra behind Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle for his doctoral thesis.
1927 Heisenberg discovers the Uncertainty Principle that bears his name.
1928 Dirac introduces a relativistic quantum equation for the electron, an equation now known as the Dirac equation. His equation predicts the discovery of the positron, and he shares the Nobel Prize with Schrodinger in 1933.
1928 Werner Heisenberg, Hermann Weyl and Eugene Wigner begin an exploration of symmetry groups in quantum mechanics that has far-reaching consequences.
1929 Edwin Hubble, with the help of his mule driver Humason, observes the redshift of distant galaxies and concludes that the Universe is expanding.
1931 Einstein stops using the cosmological constant to keep the Universe from expanding.
1931 Dirac shows that the existence of magnetic monopoles would lead to electric charge quantization.
1931 Georges De Rham goes to work on his famous theorem in cohomology and characteristic classes, results that would become very important in string theory.
1935 Young physicist Subramahnyan Chandrasekhar is attacked by famous astronomer Arthur Eddington for his report that there is a stellar mass limit beyond which collapse to what we now call a black hole is inevitable. Chandrasekhar wins the Nobel Prize in 1983 for his work on stellar evolution.
1938 Wigner constructs a class of irreducible unitary representations of the Lorentz group
1939 Elements de Mathematique, by Nicholas Bourbaki, pseudonym for a group of young mathematicians at the Ecole Normale in Paris, is begun. This extended set of works aims to set down in writing what is no longer in doubt, but rather on a boring and rigorous footing, in modern mathematics.
1943 Chinese mathematician Shiing-Shen Chern begins his work on characteristic classes and fiber bundles that will become an important tool for understanding quantum gauge theories and string theory.
1948 Richard Feynman, Julian Schwinger and Tomonaga Shin'ichiro report that the divergent integrals that plague the quantum gauge field theory of electrodynamics (QED) can be sensibly dealt with through the process of renormalization.
1953 Based on particle scattering data, Murray Gell-Mann suggests that there is a new quantum number, called hypercharge, which we now call stangeness and recognize as a part of the quark model coming from the strange quark. Gell-Mann receives the Nobel Prize in 1969 for his work on the quark model.
1954 Gell-Mann and Francis Low develop the idea that the physical content of a quantum theory should be invariant under a change of scale in the theory. This is called renormalization group, and it turns out to constrain quantum field theories enough to make it a very powerful tool for analyzing asymptotic behavior of quantum theories.
1954 C.N. Yang and R. Mills develop non-Abelian gauge invariance, an idea that takes 17 years to gain acceptance, and then revolutionizes particle physics.

Eugenio Calabi conjectures the existence of a Kähler manifold with a Ricci-flat metric with a vanishing first Chern class, and a given complex structure and Kähler class. This funny-sounding stuff will eventually become of major importance in understanding superstring theory.

1964 Cambridge mathematician Roger Penrose proves that a black hole spacetime must contain behind the black hole event horizon a singularity where spacetime physics ceases to make good sense.
1964 Gell-Mann and George Zweig independently propose fundamental particles that Gell-Mann succeeds in naming "quarks".
1964 Peter Higgs, Francois Englert and R. Brout suggest a method of breaking quantum gauge symmetry that is later called the Higgs mechanism.
1967 In his paper A Model of Leptons, Steven Weinberg relies on Lie group theory combined with quantum field theory to explain the weak nuclear and electromagnetic forces in a single theory, using the Higgs mechanism to give mass to the weak bosons. Adbus Salam and Sheldon Glashow share the Nobel Prize with Weinberg in 1979 for Electroweak Theory.
1967 Sidney Coleman and Jeffrey Mandula prove that well-behaved particle scattering theories can't have symmetry algebras that relate particles of different spin. But the strict consequences of the Coleman-Mandula Theorem were avoided by the supersymmetry algebras that were discovered a few years later.
1968 Michael Atiyah and Isadore Singer begin their work on The Index of Elliptic Operators. They prove the Atiyah-Singer index theorem, a powerful mathematical result that will later be used extensively in theoretical physics.
1968 Gabriele Veneziano begins modern string theory with his paper on the dual resonance model of the strong interactions.
1970 Yoichiro Nambu, Leonard Susskind, and Holger Nielsen independently discover that the dual resonance model devised by Veneziano is based on the quantum mechanics of relativistic vibrating strings, and string theory begins.
1971 Gerard 't Hooft publishes his proof that the electroweak gauge theory of Weinberg is renormalizable and a new chapter in theoretical physics begins -- the age of quantum gauge field theory.
1971 Pierre Ramond, André Neveu and John Schwarz develop a string theory with fermions and bosons. Gervais and Sakita show that this theory obeys what turns out to be a supersymmetry algebra in two dimensions.
1971 Ken Wilson publishes work using the renormalization group to understand the quantum behavior of systems undergoing phase transitions, this opens up the study of critical phenomena in particle physics and leads to greater understading of quark confinement. Wilson wins the Nobel Prize in 1981.
1971 Soviet physicists Yuri Gol'fand and E. Likhtman extend the Poincaré algebra into a superalgebra and discover supersymmetry in four spacetime dimensions.
1973 David Gross, David Politzer, Frank Wilczek and Gerard 't Hooft arrive at the conclusion that the coupling constant in non-abelian quantum gauge theories vanishes at high energy. This is called asymptotic freedom and is one of the major results in the history of quantum gauge field theory.
1973 Quantum field theories with spacetime supersymmetry in four spacetime dimensions are discovered by Julius Wess and Bruno Zumino.
1974 Stephen Hawking combines quantum field theory with classical general relativity and predicts that black holes radiate through particle emission, behave as thermodynamic objects, and decay with a finite lifetime into objects that we don't yet understand.
1974 Magnetic monopole solutions of non-Abelian gauge field theories are found separately by 't Hooft and Moscow physicist Alexander Polyakov.
1974 Joel Scherk and John Schwarz propose string theory as a theory of quantum gravity, an idea that takes ten years to be widely appreciated.
1974 Howard Georgi and Sheldon Glashow propose SU(5) for a "Grand Unified Theory" (GUT) of all forces except gravity, the theory predicts that protons could decay.
1975 Instanton solutions of Yang-Mills equations are discovered by Belavin, Polyakov, A. Schwarz and Tyupkin. This is exciting because instantons can tell us about non-perturbative physics that is not approachable by other means of calculation.
1976 Shing-Tung Yau proves the Calabi conjecture and discovers the Calabi-Yau space, an important development for later progress in string theory.
1980 Alan Guth puts forward the idea of an inflationary phase of the early Universe, before the Big Bang.
1981 Michael Green and John Schwarz develop superstring theory.
1981 After Schoen and Yau do it in a more traditional manner, Ed Witten uses supersymmetry to prove the positive mass conjecture.
1982 Mathematician Karen Uhlenbeck shows that Yang-Mills instantons discovered by physicists can be used as a powerful analytical tool in abstract mathematics.
1983 Witten and Luis Alvarez-Gaumé derive general formulas for gauge and gravitational anomalies in quantum field theories in any dimension. They show that the gravitational anomalies cancel in type IIB superstring theory.
1983 Mathematics graduate student Simon Donaldson discovers exotic 4-manifolds, using instanton techniques learned in part from Uhlenbeck.
1984 Michael Green and John Schwarz show that superstring theory is free from quantum anomalies if the spacetime dimension is 10 and the quantum gauge symmetry is SO(32) or E8 times E8.
1984 Gross, Harvey, Martinec and Rohm find another class of anomaly-free superstring theories, and call it the heterotic string theory.
1985 Candelas, Strominger, Horowitz and Witten propose the use of Calabi-Yau spaces for the extra dimensions in heterotic string theory.
1991 Connes and Lott develop non-commutative geometry, which will find its way into the heart of string theorists at the turn of the millennium.
1993 In search of an understanding of black hole entropy, 't Hooft suggests the idea that the information in a 3+1-dimensional system cannot be greater than what is need to store it as an image in 2+1 dimensions. Susskind generalizes this idea and applies it to string theory in his paper The World as a Hologram, and the Holographic Principle is born.
1994 Nathan Seiberg and Ed Witten discover electric-magnetic duality in N=2 supersymmetric gauge theory in four spacetime dimensions, with very important applications in both mathematics and string theory.
1995 Witten and Townsend introduce the idea of Type IIA superstring theory as a special limit of 11-dimensional supergravity theory with quantized membranes. This begins the M-theory revolution in superstring theory, and leads people to ponder the role of spacetime in string theory.
1995 Andrew Wiles, with help from Richard Taylor, completes a rigorous proof of Fermat's Last Theorem.
1995 Joseph Polchinski ignites the D-brane revolution in string theory with his paper describing extended objects in string theory formed by dual open strings with Dirichlet boundary conditions.
1996 In their paper Microscopic Origin of Black Hole Entropy, Andy Strominger and Cumrun Vafa use D-branes to count the quantum states of an extreme black hole and their result matches the Bekenstein-Hawking value. This stimulates new respect for string theory from the relativity community.
1997 Juan Maldacena finds that string theory in a background of five-dimensional anti-de Sitter space times a five-sphere obeys a duality relationship with superconformal field theory in four spacetime dimensions. The result, called AdS-CFT duality, opens up a new era of exploration in string theory.

Wayne said when he got his vehicle back the radio was not working right. He told the business and they told him they did not even work on the radio. He later found the antennae laying on the dashboard almost to the defroster. Someone had taken the antennae down or off the vehicle and put it by the defroster vent. He noticed there was something missing in the paint on the driver's side door panel. He said he was in the process of moving to Colorado when this was going on. When he and his wife drove to Colorado his wife heard something. He said the left front parking light was hanging out of the socket because it had not been tightened. The work took longer than he thought it would take, but they did not set a due date. He said because he was moving he was afraid it was getting late. He had to keep calling the business to check on the vehicle and to make sure he could get the vehicle back in time for the move. He will not recommend this business based on this experience.

Mark Bychowski | 08/10/2002
(2 out of 5 stars)

"Lydia Lunch is capable of much stronger work past and present. But the reason that people praise this act is nothing more than sycophancy. Lydia Lunch hated 8-eyed spy, which was formed as an alternative to Teenage Jesus and the Jerks and Beirut Slump, and ditched the band right after they had recorded the five studio tracks. Shortly thereafter George Scott died and the remaining members disbanded the act. The label, rather than release these studio tracks as a coherent EP, they crammed it full of useless live track filler, because LP's sell more than EP's.
The end result is a half-hearted album that is lop-sided. Side One really rocks, and side two is the sound of a disinterested vocalist and a stoned bassist playing around to fill for time. Get the LP and listen to side one which has the right tracks in the right order (Diddy Wah Diddy, Love Split with Blood, Ran Away Dark, Lazy in Love, Swamp, Run through the Jungle). now this is a unit that could really rock. Personally, Lydia Lunch is right, groups are good for one album."
Listenable lydia lunch?? surely you jest....
Mark Bychowski | houston tx | 07/07/2001
(4 out of 5 stars)

"but no, i'm serious, dude. this release, plus lydia's queen of siam, represent the only musically decent recordings of ms. lunch's career. sure, i like teenage jesus & the jerks, but only on a visceral level. the key here is the great backup playing by a hot band, leaving lydia to "concentrate" on her vocals. the second half is live, featuring the incredible bass playing of the late george scott III, a true virtuoso amongst punks. add pat irwin (raybeats) & jim scaluvoiucs (or however you spell it) and there's enough to distract when lydia gets too whiny. two great covers are included: run through the jungle & diddy wah diddy, both as good if not better than the originals. 8 eyed spy only lasted about a year before lydia went back to following her muse: despair, degradation, and duds. she was never fun again. and for the record, nick cave is NOT on this release, he's on honeymoon in red."
Oddly appealing. Noisy, sloppy and yet Amazing.
Big Tim | NYC, NY USA | 10/04/2000
(4 out of 5 stars)

"I remember seeing 8-Eyed Spy live in NYC years ago and thinking they were awful. It was as if five people were jamming on a stage and couldn't hear each other and couldn't care less. This album shows them for who they really were. Lydia was the provocative lead singer who could really sing when she wanted to and had a knack for lyrics that is unsurpassed in No wave/Punk circles. The band, featuring Jim Sclavunos and Nick Cave rock. It seems when they weren't strung out and throwing attitude, these guys could really play. If your a Nick Cave fan and never heard Lydia or any of the Feotus stuff. Get this album."

Is an umbilical hernia in a newborn cause for concern?

September 28, 2016
Most parents are probably too busy making sure their newborn has 10 fingers, 10 toes and two ears to pay attention to whether their child’s belly button is an innie or an outie. An outie belly button can be caused by an umbilical hernia, which usually is harmless. But sometimes these hernias need to be repaired when a child is older to prevent complications.

Tableau Helps Charlotte Untangle Its BI Web

By Doreen Jarman 2011/09/02

Every company knows that the best way to tell its own story is through the eyes of its customers. KMWorld did a great job of telling how the city of Charlotte, N.C. is using Tableau to put BI in the hands of business users and reap huge ROI.

The article recounts how Tableau landed at the top of Charlotte’s list of software that could, “empower business users, be easy to use and have a strong set of built-in visualization tools.” It goes on to point out how multiple non-IT users across the staff are using Tableau to be more productive because they can access data themselves rather than waiting for reports from IT.

Jim Raper, manager of the data administration team for the city of Charlotte, told KMWorld about how they used Tableau to compare the impact of oil additives on the fuel mileage of city refuse collection trucks, "We put the data into Tableau, and in 15 minutes we discovered that one of the additives was not improving mileage. This piece of data helped save the city $50,000 in future expenditures." Now that’s some rapid-fire ROI!

KMWorld went on to highlight Tableau’s Web-based training programs and Charlotte’s own “BI Olympiad,” which includes a contest for the business units across the city. The staff are tasked with a real business problem, finding the data and presenting it. "Although the teams can use any BI tool they want," says Raper, "the top three all used Tableau, because the analyses could be done so quickly." We love to hear about these types of internal programs, especially when Tableau is behind the winning team.

Government Technology also posted an article about the city of Charlotte's innovative approach to BI analytics. Our favorite quote from Jim Raper is, "From the use of the software tools ... what we are seeing is a 10-to-20-fold increase in the ability of an analyst to quickly produce the information by the decision maker and then go to the next step — digging deeper, looking for anomalies and looking why the response time may be greater in one neighborhood as opposed to another.”

KMWorld's story has been really an eye opener for everyone .it truly reflects the use of BI in any business,they used it to full advantage and the result is in front of every one fact to be honest i was also not in much favor of these type of tools but i changed my mind when one of my friend used it in his company and i saw the improvements

Using Breath to Live Pain Free by Gibney Siemion and Justin Salamon

Posted on August 25, 2014
Filed Under Keep Tahoe Strong

What does it mean to live an embodied life?

In this article, South Shore Certified Rolfers, Gibney Siemion and Justin Salamon, share their tools to live a full life through proper breathing.

What does it mean to live an embodied life? Embodiment, in one sense, means to live with more awareness in our bodies. Sensing and feeling our movements and vital processes creates more fluidity and better biomechanical function. This is distinct from normal consciousness where we tell our body what to do in a linear, and often forced, sense. Being embodied means that you are able to listen to your body’s signals and move with it, rather than against it.

In Tahoe we value activities in the elements; whether it is on the lake or in the mountains, on the snow or the trails. Sometimes pain and injury come between us and our favorite activities, forcing us to take a step back. This can be an ideal time to reassess our approach to our bodies and ask “Are my daily movement patterns supporting or detracting from my physical health?”

In the following article, we offer ideas on how to find awareness to enhance your embodiment, and in many cases free you from pain. Stay tuned for future articles that suggest new ways of thinking about and moving your body to enhance your health and well-being.

Using Breath to Enhance Awareness and Achieve Freedom from Pain

How often are you at work with your back, neck or feet aching? Does discomfort stop you from achieving goals or playing with your children and friends? Do you push through the discomfort? You may not realize that you are becoming numb to the pain. In agreement with the saying “move it or lose it”; movement is an indicator of physical health. When areas of our bodies lose movement due to pain, injury or habitual use/non-use, our health is diminished. When movement is restored, in the form of large-scale mobility and subtle yet vital motility, health returns to our bodies. Developing a foundation of attentiveness can help you regain motion, free you from discomfort and make your body a more comfortable place to live. Breath is fundamental and our starting point for enhancing awareness.

It goes without saying that breathing is essential to our health. We can only live a few minutes without breathing as compared to several days without water and a month or more without food. Surprisingly, few people are conscientious of their breath. Are you aware of your breath as you read this page? If you just became aware, pat yourself on the back. Now use your hands to sandwich your body and sense each breath. Begin with one hand on your abdomen and the other on your lower back. Take a full, deep breath and feel the subtle movement between your hands. Then, transfer your hands to your chest and mid-back and take another full breath. Lastly, sandwich your rib cage with one hand on each side beneath your arm. Acknowledge the areas that move easily, and those that are still. Enjoy finding places that your breath reaches and explore the challenge of allowing breath to go to places that is does not. Remember that wherever you have ribs, you have lungs and because our bodies have elastic properties, we can even feel the movement of breath in our feet and our head! Each breath oxygenates the blood, delivers nutrients to the cells, transports wastes from the cells, and increases overall vitality.

Areas of our bodies that do not move easily are often the most uncomfortable and difficult to find with our breathing, thereby inhibiting physiological processes. Go ahead and contract a muscle and then try to invite your breath into that area. It’s challenging isn’t it? Gaining awareness through breath can alert us to aches and soreness that we had been unconscious of previously, but it can also aid in the release of chronic holding patterns which underlie the pain and discomfort. There are many ways to bring healthy movement into our bodies but awareness is the first step. Remember to pat yourself on the back every time you are aware of your breath.

Take home idea: When you are experiencing discomfort, turn your attention to your breath. Allow it to flow into the affected area and release. This is a first, important step to regaining a pain-free body.

We live in a special place. A place so beautiful it nurtures the soul and creative spirit. A place so breathtaking it inspires conservation. A mountain culture that masters the fine art of living. Welcome to this place we call home. Welcome to Lake Tahoe. Meet the local artists, individuals, businesses and events that define our unique mountain culture and embody Tahoe's creative and entrepreneurial spirit.

Tahoe threads in Patagonia T-shirts | TahoeDailyTribune.com

Tahoe threads in Patagonia T-shirts

Patagonia’s nature loving customers can add a Tahoe twist to their T-shirt wardrobe when basin artist Michelle Murdock’s homegrown Sierra Nevada designs go live in spring 2014.

When the Tahoe City artist received an email from Patagonia’s art department in May, she was surprised and eager to work with the outdoor clothing company. Product Art Director Chris Teig had seen her letterpress work on an Etsy website, and he thought the art would complement the Patagonia brand.

“I just randomly received an email, and he mentioned he’d seen my work. I was very excited. I’m a big fan of the company, and not only of their products but of their ethics as a business as well. I like that they’re mixing old school letterpress with modern printing technology,” Murdock said.

Images of rock climbers gripping a sheer wall or skiers shoulder-deep in powder might immediately come to mind when you think Patagonia. The outdoor clothing company is known for its high-quality products, killer use of photography and environmental initiatives. It’s also recognized as one of the leaders in the outdoor clothing industry when it comes to fine arts and graphic design, Teig said.

“Patagonia for my world – the world of arts and graphic design – has, from the very get go, been very involved with developing relationships with artists. We have very high quality products and environmental standards and artists tend to like to work with us,” Teig said.

Patagonia has an infinite need for fresh artwork, and Teig said the company will work with about 25 individual artists a season to design new graphics for T-shirts, accessories and other products. Teig immerses himself in the art world to discover those talents whose work fits the Patagonia ethic, attending art shows, browsing art websites like Etsy and perusing his email for artist referrals.

Teig said Murdock’s work stood out because her letterpress pieces felt appropriate to the company’s brand. One print in particular that read, “Lettuce Turnip the Beet,” in bold capital letters caught his attention because he said natural, homegrown foods appeal to Patagonia’s buyers.

The company commissioned Murdock to create two new, unique designs for a men’s and women’s T-shirt. The artist created separate prints of each of the Patagonia letters and overlayed them to make a vibrant piece of intersecting lines.

“It’s hard to find artists that speak to the activities and aesthetic of Patagonia. This created a really interesting color scheme. It was a way to do a brand read that felt artistic,” Teig said.

Murdock, owner of Quail Lane Press in Tahoe City, moved to the basin three years ago from Truckee. She stared her artistic career as an illustrator, but found it was difficult to make a living from the time-consuming drawings. She wanted to make original art that she could sell at an affordable price while still supporting herself, so she turned to letterpress.

Letterpress, or relief printing, involves locking an image into the bed of a press, inking it and then rolling paper against it to form an impression. At Quail Lane Press, Murdock hand draws and prints the work on an old-fashioned letterpress and then tints each piece individually with watercolor. It allows an artist to take various colors and letters and blend them to create different and interesting color combinations, she said.

One of her earliest prints depicts the Lake Tahoe Basin as it might have looked when explorer John Fremont first crested the ridge from Carson Valley. There’s no U.S. Highway 50 cut along the South Shore, only familiar natural landmarks like the Upper Truckee River and Emerald Bay identified in a mystical, flowing calligraphy.

“A lot of my earlier prints were nature inspired. I have an interest in the landscape and I’ve always liked cartography. I often try and imagine this place when it was untouched. I aimed to show peaks and drainages, not roads. It lets me look at the basin and say, ‘This is what it once looked like,'” she said.

When Murdock, who also holds a master’s degree in environmental science from Yale University, started summer stream monitoring for the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency, she realized she missed a few drainage areas and wants to redo portions of the basin map.

While Patagonia continues in-house work to refine Murdock’s designs, the artist still sells prints like the Lake Tahoe Basin at Riverside Studios in Truckee and online at http://www.etsy.com.

The art process takes about 18 months from design to a finished product, Teig said, and Patagonia designers will continue to rework the images for the T-shirts in the upcoming months.

But come spring 2014, take a closer look at that rock climber or skier’s T-shirt. It might just have some threads tying it to Tahoe.

 Arrests made as Greek fires rage on - Taipei Times

Arrests made as Greek fires rage on

CULTURAL HERITAGE The flames were within 5km of the archeological site of Mount Olympus yesterday and authorities mobilized some soldiers to patrol the site

Fires tore through parched forests and swallowed villages across Greece, bearing down on villages near Mount Olympus in the south a day after the government declared a nationwide state of emergency. At least 51 people were dead and three people were arrested on suspicion of arson.

The worst infernos were concentrated in the mountains of the Peloponnese in southern Greece and on the island of Evia north of Athens.

The flames were within 5km of the archeological site of Mount Olympus, where authorities evacuated several nearby villages and mobilized some 50 soldiers and volunteers to patrol the site to prevent the worst from happening.

Desperate residents in nearby villages appeared on TV to appeal for help.

"We're going to burn alive here," one woman told Greek television from the village of Lambeti.

She said residents were using garden hoses in a desperate attempt to save their homes.

Church bells rang out in the village of Kolyri near Ancient Olympia as panicked residents tried to gather their belongings and flee through the night, said one man who called the TV station.

After first light, firefighting planes began dropping water in the area, and Ancient Olympia mayor Giorgos Aidonis said the ancient site was no longer in imminent peril.

"We are among the lucky," he said. "Ancient Olympia is not in danger at the moment."

But other areas were still being consumed by flames, with much of the Peloponnese ablaze and one front bearing down a mountain slope towards the southern city of Kalamata.

On Saturday, new fronts had emerged as dozens of fresh fires broke out -- including some blamed on arson.

Another blaze broke out in the area of Kalyvia, between Athens and the ancient site of Sounion to the south.

Nearly 1,000 soldiers and military helicopters reinforced firefighters stretched to the limit by the country's worst summer of wildfires.

In the most ravaged area -- a string of mountain villages in southern Greece -- rescue crews picked through a grim aftermath that spoke of last-minute desperation as the fires closed in.

Dozens of charred bodies were found across fields, homes, along roads and in cars, including the remains of a mother hugging her four children.

By sea and by land, authorities evacuated hundreds of people trapped by the flames.

Senior Health Ministry official Panagiotis Efstathiou said on Saturday that the bodies of 49 people who died because of the fires had been taken to hospitals.

There were fears the toll could increase as rescue crews searched recently burned areas.

The fires have been so severe that authorities said that they could not yet give an estimate of how much damage the blazes had caused, nor what expanse of land had been burned.

Kings stun Sharks, Bruins edge Rangers in overtime

Sat, May 18, 2013 - Page 18

The Los Angeles Kings scored two last-gasp goals in the space of just 22 seconds to stun the San Jose Sharks and snatch a 4-3 win on Thursday, taking a 2-0 lead in their NHL Western Conference semi-final series.

Also on Thursday, Boston beat the New York Rangers 3-2 in overtime of the opening game of their East series, in the first playoff meeting of the two storied teams in 40 years.

Los Angeles’ Dustin Brown tied the game with 1:43 left and Trevor Lewis scored a power-play goal 22 seconds later to propel the defending Stanley Cup champions to a remarkable win.

The Kings won their 12th straight home game and their sixth straight post-season game, but only after getting outplayed for long stretches and needing late-game magic to thrive.

“It’s a rollercoaster, but when you go through the experience of everything we did last year, you keep your emotions in check,” Brown said.

Game three is today at the Shark Tank.

Jeff Carter scored on the Kings’ first shot and added an assist on Brown’s goal. Drew Doughty scored an early power-play goal for Los Angeles, who did not really get rolling until the third period — and with two late goals, the Kings landed one of the most amazing victories in their relatively thin playoff history.

Jonathan Quick made 28 saves for the Kings, tying Kelly Hrudey’s franchise record with his 26th career playoff victory. Antti Niemi stopped 27 shots for the Sharks, but was powerless to stop the Kings power play.

Marc-Edouard Vlasic scored his first career playoff goal with 11:04 to play for the Sharks, who were doomed by their late penalties after rallying from an early deficit.

Patrick Marleau and Brad Stuart scored second-period goals for the Sharks.

“I liked our game,” San Jose coach Todd McLellan said. “We’ll meet at the rink and I’ll tell our team that. Maybe in the past this would have bothered our team more, but with the group of guys we have, we can recover from this.”

Meanwhile in Boston, Brad Marchand scored with 4:20 left in overtime to give the Bruins the opener against the Rangers.

Marchand, Boston’s top goal scorer in the regular season, got his first of the playoffs on a pass from Patrice Bergeron.

Marchand had carried the puck up the right side, passed it to Bergeron and kept going toward the net. Bergeron passed across the slot and Marchand tipped it past goalie Henrik Lundqvist.

Boston nearly won in regulation, but Johnny Boychuk’s shot from clanged off the post with one-tenth of a second remaining.

The win was Boston’s third straight in overtime, and New York’s third straight loss in extra time.

“It was pretty even going into the overtime,” Rangers coach John Tortorella said. “But we got spanked in the overtime.”

Zdeno Chara gave Boston a 1-0 lead at 12:23 of the second before Ryan McDonagh tied it with 1.3 seconds left in the period.

Derek Stepan put the Rangers ahead 2-1 just 14 seconds into the third period, and Torey Krug tied it on a power play with his first NHL goal in four career games.

Game two is tomorrow in Boston.

 US senators call on Bush to take stand on WHO bid - Taipei Times

US senators call on Bush to take stand on WHO bid

A group of eight US senators has written to President George W. Bush urging his administration to support membership for Taiwan in the WHO.

The letter, dated July 11, was cosigned by Sherrod Brown, Trent Lott, Charles Schumer, Joseph Lieberman, Tim Johnson, Tom Coburn, Johnny Isakson and Jon Tester.

Brown was a cofounder and cochair of the Congressional Taiwan Caucus when he was a member of the House of Representatives. Lott and Johnson are cochairs of the Senate Taiwan Caucus.

Stressing that full WHO membership for Taiwan is "in America's best interests," the senators called on the Bush administration to seek to build a "coalition of like-minded nations," especially member states of the EU, in support of Taiwan's bid.

On the memorandum of understanding (MOU) signed two years ago between China and the WHO regarding Taiwan's participation in the organization, the senators asked the Bush administration to make it clear that it would not accept any China-WHO MOU that means excluding Taiwanese medical experts from WHO activities.

The senators also said "it is essential that there will be no overt or covert MOU" between the WHO and China regarding the implementation of the International Health Regulations (IHR).

Beijing has claimed that the IHR applies to the "entire territory" of China, including Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan.

Taiwanese officials have said that since China secretly signed an MOU with the WHO in 2005, it has become even more difficult for medical professionals from Taiwan to take part in the WHO's technical conferences.

 Scores hurt in Bangladesh clashes - Taipei Times

Scores hurt in Bangladesh clashes

NATIONAL SHUTDOWN A nationwide strike brought the south Asian country to a virtual standstill yesterday, with a number of protesters injured in battles with riot police

Riot police stand guard as women walk past during a nationwide general strike in Dhaka yesterday. Much of Bangladesh was largely paralyzed by the strike called by the main opposition alliance demanding removal of what they claimed are ``partisan'' election commissioners.

A strike paralyzed Bangladesh yesterday after dozens of people were injured in clashes and police detained opposition activists.

A 14-party opposition alliance, led by former prime minister Sheikh Hasina's Awami League, called the strike over demands for the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner M.A. Aziz, who they accuse of favouring the government.

The opposition has also demanded that the election commission to be reformed to make it "fully capable of holding a free and fair parliamentary election", due in January 2007.

The country's four-party Islamist allied government, which has a hefty majority in parliament, rejected the opposition charge.

Authorities deployed hundreds of extra police and special forces in Dhaka and other cities to keep order, after the opposition vowed to make the stoppage a "new turning point" in their long campaign to force out Prime Minister Begum Khaleda Zia.

Schools and businesses, including the Dhaka Stock Exchange and most government and private offices, were either closed or staffed thinly. Passenger and freight transport was also severely disrupted as no inter-regional buses or trucks were to be seen on the roads yesterday, on what is normally a working day in the Muslim-majority country.

Chittagong was left out of the strike call as yesterday was the death centenary of a sufi saint who lived near the port city.

In Dhaka, at least 25 people were injured in clashes between Awami activists and police on Saturday evening.

Newspapers said hundreds of anti-government activists were picked up by police overnight trying to discourage strikers. Police declined to confirm the reports.

Witnesses said further clashes yetsterday broke out when steel-helmeted riot police used batons to disperse opposition leaders and workers marching on the streets and chanting in support of the strike in Dhaka and in the industrial town of Tongi near the capital.

Twenty people were injured in clashes in Dhaka and 15 in Tongi.

Police said they acted after protesters attacked them with stones and brickbats.

More than 8,500 police, paramilitary Bangladesh Rifles and the elite Rapid Action Battalion were on guard in the streets yesterday in the capital to prevent any violence, Dhaka police official Mahbubur Rashid said.

The strike is the first this year called by opposition parties.

After finishing the thread bookmarks, I decided to crochet my first doily! I liked this pattern because it is colorful and has a unique oblong shape.

Because of a "grandma kept doilies under glass" comment at a recent meeting at the college, the doily is now under a clear plastic runner on the carpet in the president's office...just to see if anyone notices and puts two and two together!

Holtz: Eatmon, Lang will both play at RT vs. Mocs

TAMPA -- USF's first game-week depth chart was released Monday, and redshirt freshman Max Lang is listed as the Bulls' starting right tackle, with returning starter Quinterrius Eatmon missing most of last week with concussion symptoms. Coach Skip Holtz said both are practicing and likely to play in Saturday's opener against I-AA Chattanooga.

"(Eatmon) is back now, but he hasn't played. He's cleared all the tests," Holtz said. "But right now, Max is playing really well, and he's doing a nice job there. If Q will come back (to full strength), we'll have a heck of a competition going through. I would imagine they'll both play if they're both healthy for Saturday."

Lang, who redshirted last season, could start in his college debut, though Holtz said he'll wait to see how quickly Eatmon can return to form in practice this week.

"Right now, I'm being told (Eatmon) is completely cleared, but until I see him put on shoulder pads and go out there and play, I've got to go with the guy that's been there for the last week, and  that's Max Lang."

Holtz has made it clear in camp that if a starter misses time with injury and his replacement plays at a high level, the starter isn't guaranteed to return to his starting role.

"I've said before, when a guy's injured and a backup goes in there, if he does a great job, he's kind of earned squatter's rights," Holtz said. "I don't think he's going to give it up easily, and I think Q's going to compete his tail off to get it back. It's a great situation to have as a football team. As we go into the season, Max Lang is running with the ones."

There are several positions where USF's "returning starters" might not be returning as starters -- safety Jon Lejiste, linebacker Michael Lanaris and receiver Sterling Griffin have all been listed as top backups at times during the preseason.

This is standard TNC-2 compatible behavior,  and also for the PK-12. It's
controlled by the MRpt command, which defaults to ON. Setting it to OFF

Ever since I first learned that the planets do in fact line up... lol I guess I was just oblivious to a lot for awhile huh. I heard that something bad was supposed to happen with the alignment. Also I heard that it had happened a long time ago. Yeah I know I should watch the stars and stuff much more than I do since I am absolutely in love with stars! But I learned from friends about the current "alignment" and the fact that there is also a full moon involved. I was wondering what exactly could this mean if anything.

You may want to check out my post on "The Saturn/Pluto Opposition" and the "Aries New Moon". Both explain what the cosmos is up to.

What will happen? No one knows for sure...

And dairy free by adding cider vinegar to almond milk and waiting for a minute before adding it to the recipe. Then as I don't drink coffee I used a cup of peppermint tea in its place and added peppermint oil (7 drops) to the batter. Then who wants all the sugar so you can only eat one, I added only one cup organic sugar, and one cup stevia...half and half doesn't mess with the texture and flavor of baked goods!

"This recipe is very good - very tasty and moist! If you are not a coffee drinker, it really doesn't matter. You won't be able to taste it. The coffee is just there to enhance the chocolate taste. I substituted buttermilk with 1 tbsp white vinegar added with whole milk to make 1 cup. I lessened the sugar a bit - used 1 3/4 cup instead of 2 cups. In addition to just topping it with powdered sugar, I made a chocolate ganache (bittersweet chocolate, whole milk with cardamom, powdered sugar and butter) then sprinkled chocolate chips on top. The fluted tube pan available to me was a little bit smaller than the one called for in the instructions but the batter did not really overflow during baking. Baking time of 45 minutes was spot on. This is very easy to make, very little effort needed. The finished product looks very presentable and you could easily give these as gifts."

As I said to my last blog post I will be blogging a lot about our second holiday trip in Vietnam which is more on nature and cold weather condition. Indeed Da Lat Vietnam which is in the mountain range 9hours drive from Ho Chi Minh is totally breathtaking from the high mountains, scary zigzag road and different towns we’ve been to on the way to Da Lat. It is quite amazing how different this place is, Away from a noisy busy road full of motorbikes, Crowded people and away from the dirty air coming from the smokey vehicles.

Welcome to Datanla! Not sure if it’s the real translation though, haha!

The roller coaster ride is the first climax and heart pumping activity we’ve done that day. It is not going to move automatically  and not controlled by some one, But only you. It has a small long stick on the right hand side and three people can fit in one car, but only one people has the total control of it. Gotta be careful though, Because there are people who started the pace of the ride already and they might stop somewhere in the middle you don’t know and an accident will surely happen I guess. Our ride had gone pretty smoothly but nearly before the pit stop, One tourist guy stopped in the middle and we had to stop as well. His pointing something in the bush, But since we cannot understand Vietnamese We just waited for the guy to start the ride again going to the falls. Picture above is my daughter Ashlee waiting for the next ride. The second photo above when we stopped to take a photo with the waterfalls. Oh! We just knew that it’s actually a big snake in the bush when a guy translated it for us after we had reached the waterfalls! haha Lucky I really didn’t see it haha!

IMG_0499 IMG_0503

Yeah! a Family photo atlas! Backview is the Datanla Waterfalls. Thanks to our friend Allan who almost took our family photo all the time were in Vietnam. That’s the first waterfalls! Isn’t it gorgeous! I know but sad to say that it is not allowed to even swim to any falls that you can see because of the strong water current and big rocks everywhere!

IMG_0505 IMG_0511 IMG_0534

Posing while climbing up the hill to see the waterfall much nearer. You gotta cross the bridge where the water exactly falls and have strong water current! We got a bit wet also haha!

IMG_0572 IMG_2704

Another huge waterfall! I took this photo just using my iPhone so sorry if a bit blurry this one. It’s actually my husband there standing hehe camera-shy! You have to ride the cable car first and then ride the excalator (Picture above) going down to this waterfall can you actually believe that? Very modern and tourists friendly You think? Specially to the old people who still wants to go mountains like this. Right? They didn’t have to walk that much and just enjoy the rides and the view of course!

Our very dearest couple friends Anna Nhu and Allan who’s going to have their first baby very soon! We are all excited! See guys very soon again!

Peace sign from Mr. Fu! Our very good driver who drove us and keep us very safe through a long and winding road activity for the past 3days we stayed in Da Lat Vietnam! Thanks to you guys! We surely miss you all and hope to seeing you again very soon with your bouncing baby boy Allan and Nhu! I miss the cold weather and flowers there! Excited to blog about the night market and cheap stuffs I bought! Watch out for that guys! You’ll going to meet some other very good Vietnamese’ friends who made our holiday complete! Thanks guys!

Cayman Hedge Funds Break 10,000 Barrier

by Amanda Banks,, London

11 August 2008

Recent second quarter figures from the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority (CIMA), have confirmed the achievement of a key milestone by the Cayman Islands financial services industry, with more than 10,000 investment funds currently registered in the jurisdiction.

At the end of June 2008 there were 10,037 funds on CIMA's register, compared with 9,681 at the end of the previous quarter and 8,972 at the mid point of 2007. The current annual growth rate of 12% in net new hedge funds, which takes cancellations into account, is particularly striking in the context of the deterioration in global markets following the sub-prime meltdown and associated credit crunch.

"This is yet another round of impressive statistics from CIMA," said Mark Lewis, senior investment funds partner at Walkers, the leading offshore law firm. "The 10,000 barrier has been breached as hedge funds continue to be formed in the Cayman Islands, which remains the clear jurisdiction of choice for investment managers and their advisers around the world."

Mr Lewis added: "Business remains active and the volatility which has impacted world markets as a result of the credit crisis, and the relatively weak valuations of many securities, has provided hedge fund managers with great opportunities to create alpha after a number of years of relatively flat returns. Hedge funds have also provided the market with much needed liquidity, which has been especially beneficial amid the current tight lending conditions."

According to Walkers, the continued growth in net hedge fund registrations is also partly explained by the absence of a significant spike in fund terminations. While the firm has observed a slight increase in terminations over the past 12 months, funds are not being closed at an unprecedented rate.

"There have been some forced closures, but in the cases where funds are struggling, the managers we work with are being pro-active by placing hard-to-value securities in side pockets, suspending redemptions and imposing gates. Such measures may enable a fund in distress to ride out the storm or to wind down its affairs in an orderly manner," said Walkers investment funds partner Nick Rogers.

"In the Cayman Islands the key drivers behind the actions being taken are the need to treat all investors equitably and to act in the best interests of the fund, and this provides a firm foundation for protecting market participants and preserving value," he added.

Among the new funds that have been established in the Cayman Islands, strategies such as distressed debt and special opportunities presented by the widespread markdown in asset prices have continued to feature strongly, Walkers notes.

"There has also been significant ongoing activity in emerging markets and commodities," Mr Rogers added. "The convergence of these two hot asset classes has been particularly interesting."

Walkers believes that there are a number of factors behind the Cayman Islands' attractiveness as a domicile for hedge funds, in particular the stable economic and political climate, the close relationship between the public and private sector and the presence of the world's leading professional services firms.

Furthermore, the regulatory regime in the Cayman Islands has been recognised internationally, notably by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the Caribbean Financial Action Task Force (CFATF) for its high standards. In the area of transparency and "know-your-client" regulations, these standards surpass many of the world's top international financial centres.
