Let the clamor begin … again

Last December, when he was organizing the Citizen Hearing on Disclosure, Stephen Bassett thought he saw the light at the end of the tunnel. Five straight days of UFO testimony in Washington, D.C., and Americans would be clamoring for more coverage.

“The media is the most powerful lever the public has to stick it to government,” he said then. “Without the media, it’s almost impossible to press the government to take action in the public interest … We’ll create so much public interest, a lot of the editors are gonna say, Christ almighty, enough is enough, that’s it, let’s get some answers from these guys. And if they ask the right questions, I predict the truth embargo will be over within 60 days.”

Four months gone now since the week-long parade of eyewitnesses — some impeccable, some dubious — participated in a mock congressional hearing at the National Press Club. Coverage was erratic, often snarky and most definitely allergic to follow-ups, even with veterans testifying to bad juju surrounding U.S. nuclear missiles. Which apparently proves that, in order to impress the media, it’ll take a lot more than $600,000, the conservatively estimated retail price for putting the Citizen Hearing together.

Q: So where do these desultory results leave Bassett’s Paradigm Research Group?

A: Gearing up for the next round.

With continuing financial assistance from Vancouver millionaire Tom Clearwater, PRG is transferring all this videotaped testimony — some 30 hours worth — into multi-DVD sets; by late October, it plans to have sent them to the offices of all 535 Congressional members. Then comes a followup social media/email blast requesting that Disclosure advocates pressure the pols — or at least staffers — to review the videos, then lobby them to meet with Bassett about staging real hearings on The Hill. The reasoning here is that, with record-breaking, bottom-sucking popularity numbers, way down there in the muck with the albino catfish, skates and methane-eating microbes, elected officials will have to think twice about blowing off constituent requests.

But there’s no getting around the media flop on the front end. Bassett acknowledges that. “It did not get anywhere near to what I thought it would get. There were no network interviews at all,” he says. “We just didn’t have enough money to drive media awareness. Between that and the bombing nine days before the hearings …”

Right — the Boston Marathon bombings. Media commitment to that horror story drained the air out of the Hearings and practically everything else that went down in May. Bassett has a right to feel snakebit. In 2002, he ran for Congress in Maryland’s 8th District on a platform of UFO disclosure. As his independent campaign rounded the home stretch that October, car-trunk snipers Lee Boyd Malvo and John Muhammad decided open fire on Beltway-area voters who weren’t all that interested in hearing about UFO coverups at that point.

Anyway, Bassett remains convinced his use of “extraterrestrial presence” is the right way to flag Congress, and that detractors who say the ET riff is premature are the ones playing games.

“The number of potential Earth-like planets that can sustain liquid water has increased exponentially,” he says, referring to this summer’s Astrophysical Journal Letters hypothesizing that as many as 60 billion habitable worlds could exist in the Milky Way alone. “We have zero evidence for operating in another dimension or moving around in time. Politically, it doesn’t make a damn bit of difference if you’re talking about time travel or ETs or whatever, OK? Semantics is just another debunking tool.”

So here’s the context for PRG’s next round: Only one (1) percent of Americans think Capitol Hill is doing an “excellent” job, and just 6 percent label its work as “good,” according to a recent Rasmussen Poll. “Poorly” — that’s a euphemism for what 64 percent think. In fact, the 113th Congress is on track to become America’s most worthless collection of public “servants” since evaluations began in 1948. Now, throw in WikiLeaks revelations about unending malfeasance abroad, garnish with Edward Snowden’s exposes on domestic surveillance, then marinate with a generation of disillusioned and wired digital-native millennials who, for some reason, think American institutions are diseased and contagious. Slide this broth into the oven and Bassett figures he’s got a winning recipe for Disclosure hearings.

“Gee, would the NSA lie about surveillance on the American people, would the president lie about WMD in Iraq? What the millennials see is a government that will lie about anything,” Bassett says. “They lie about war, they lie about peace, what’s to stop them from lying about extraterrestrials? We’re going to need the participation of the 20 to 35 crowd. They’re the ones who are going to make the difference.”

And if that approach doesn’t work, well, as long as mysterious Tom Clearwater, a reputed oil man, keeps the money coming, no doubt something else will.

16 comments on “Let the clamor begin … again

  • I think the problem with these extraterrestrial conferences is in their approach to the subject.

    Unfortunately, an extraterrestrial presence on earth cannot necessarily be conclusively proven.

    HOWEVER, a serious interest in unidentified flying objects by a great number individuals in the highest levels of government, military, and industry – as well as an *active concealment* of this interest from the general public – can be proven without a shadow of a doubt.

    Why not host a conference with this as the central feature: Why have our governments held such a high level of interest in the ufo topic and kept this interest secret from the general public?

    It would be easy to demonstrate the above premise as an incontestable fact, unlike “alien visitors” or something of that sort.

    There may or may not be alien visitors on this planet, but there is most definitely something very big going on in this area of inquiry, a massive chunk of our history and current conditions here on earth are being kept from the general public. This fact of official interest and secrecy is something that most people can easily see as plausible, considering the current political climate.

  • Mainstream media, along with established agencies that are supported by monetary value’s must never be trusted with the truth. They are paid to maintain the status quo. Truther’s can also be compromised. We need our own networks to establish a pirate signal that bypasses the mam, and commercial interests. Get you millionaire to support ambient back scattering and develop it along with super capacitors made of graphene. Then the signal shall be heard at last over the mam noise! 😉

  • Tom Clearwater says:

    The author would be best to check his drama and actually research and contact people about whom he writes, including me.

  • Why not bypass all these smokey mirrors and open http://www.theyfly.com. Before you scream fraud as this may overwhelm you as it didn’t come from nasa, seti, astronomers or Govts., keep in mind that planetary info on our Solar System given to the cotactee by et was published sometimes years ahead of nasa’s discoveries.

  • I wonder who is paying for Mr. Clearwater’s “operation”. My guess, is that the CIA put up the money. It seems that Just Cause Entertainment (Toykyo) approached Rueben Langdon (Just Cause, Marina Del Ray) to capture Mr. Bassett & Co. in a “honeypot”.

  • Billy, is that the best you’ve got? Surprise. Occam, Occum, Okhum, it’s the same thing. “that which can be explained with fewer assumptions, can vain be explained with more.” That was off the top of my head. Do you know what it means?

  • Bassett says, “They lie about war, they lie about peace, what’s to stop them from lying about extraterrestrials?

    Hey, Steve, that’s a non sequitur; conditions of war and peace actually exist in the world, the “extraterrestrial presence” does not.

  • Paul Budding, appealing to “the literature,” as if the large volume of reports meant that the fairy tales composing it had substance. Good try! That’s been the fallacious basis of countless “UFO” books since 1950, and the worthless ploy is noted in Condon 1968.
    Now, present one that you believe is convincing, as if we hadn’t heard them all before. Scientific realism has much higher standards of evidence than the “UFO” fantasy world.
    Innumerable, unverifiable, insubstantial, and wholly inconsequential reports but not one real “UFO” of any kind, much less a spacecraft. Wholly inconsequential says quite a lot.

  • Paul, the only UFO “literature” out there is the junk manufactured by the people who are making a living off the goobers who are too unsophisticated to even know what Occums Razor is. The real scientists have no interest because, to date, there is not a single piece of evidence which stands up to scrutiny by objective observers. If there were, it would be the biggest news in world history, and every scientist, of every discipline, would be studying it. And to claim there is a “conspiracy” to hide this information from the public is just STUPID.

  • Paul Budding says:

    To Duff, anyone who studies the literature and then applied occams razor would conclude that there is a UFO Phenomenon… i.e., that something exotic is going on (even if its not ET). So Occam’s Razor only works for debunkers if you are applying it to an ‘uninformed’ community.

  • Gee, I wonder why no one cares?

    Let’s apply Occums Razor.

    1. There is a giant conspiracy throughout government to hide the truth.

    2. There is no evidence aliens have visited earth.

  • It’s good to hear that funds are making their way into this field, and I have no problem with the Citizen Hearing, but it does remind me of Brewster’s Millions. Mr Bigelow funded research, but tended to keep the results to himself. I hope Mr Clearwater has, or is, considering funding direct research such as Doug Trumbull’s UFOTOG project.

  • Maybe Bassett should check with the CIA and FBI before scheduling his ‘next round’. That way he could be sure there are no other news-sucking events in the works.

    Say what?

    Boston & Washington were total surprises?

    Maybe he should keep his next event secret….

Paris seeks $14 million from Airbnb for illegal adverts

Paris seeks $14 million from Airbnb for illegal adverts

PARIS (Reuters) – The City of Paris is suing Airbnb for publishing 1,000 illegal rentals adverts, which could cost the American rental website more than 12.5 million euros ($14 million), the mayor of Paris told a newspaper in an interview published on Sunday.

Under French law, home owners in Paris can rent out their places on short-term rental platforms for up to 120 days in a year. Advertisements must include a registration number to help ensure properties are not rented out for longer.

France passed a law in 2018 which makes companies such as Airbnb punishable by fines of 12,500 euros per illegal posting, a new provision Paris will use to challenge Airbnb in court, Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo told the Journal du Dimanche newspaper.

“The goal is to send a shot across the bows to get it over with unauthorized rentals that spoil some Parisian neighborhoods,” Hidalgo said in the interview.

Several cities around the world have expressed concerns that platforms such as Airbnb stand as unfair competitors to hotels and can turn some neighborhoods into sterile, tourist-only zones.

A spokeswoman for Airbnb said it had implemented measures to help Paris users of its website comply with European rules, but added that the rules in Paris were “inefficient, disproportionate and in contravention of European rules.”

France is Airbnb’s second-largest market after the United States. Paris, one of the most visited cities in the world, is its biggest single market, with around 65,000 homes listed.

Founded in 2008 in San Francisco, Airbnb matches people wishing to rent out all or part of their homes to temporary guests, via a website.

(The story corrects to show France, not Paris passed the 2018 legislation in paragraph three.)

The LEGO Batman Movie (4K Ultra HD Blu-ray)

[Editor’s Note: The film portions of this review are by Tim Salmons, the disc portions are by Bill Hunt.]

After the success of The Lego Movie, it was a full-blown conclusion that more movies like it were going to get made eventually. Unsurprisingly, when The Lego Batman Movie was released in February of 2017, it did fairly well at the box office and was well-received. The film is a romp, plain and simple. It’s pure, unadulterated fun, packing in some exciting set pieces, all the laughs you could ask for, and an abundance of colorful visuals. It’s also not overly cutesy or family friendly; it treats its audience with respect, never talking down to it or resorting to cheap jokes for easy laughs. All of the humor comes from the characters and the situations, making it surprisingly witty.

It also attempts to make Batman a bit more relatable than his previous big screen incarnations. While he’s fighting the bad guys and saving the city, he’s also dealing with a problem of his own, which is a growing need for a family environment. But after being closed off emotionally for so long, it’s a difficult thing for him to admit to. He’s often so full of himself that it’s basically a parody of the character, but in the scheme of things, you actually care about him, which is one of the main flaws of the live action Batman films thus far, enjoyable as they are. That gives the story here just enough weight, but still maintains the exuberance of the overall piece. It’s a nice blend in an otherwise fantastic and ridiculous world. To be more succinct, this is everything you could want in an animated Batman movie for all ages.

As a CG-animated production, The LEGO Batman Movie was rendered in 2K resolution and upsampled for 4K Ultra HD release at the 2.39:1 aspect ratio. That’s not necessarily a problem though, as 2K provides more than enough resolution to render fine detail and texturing on realistic LEGO pieces. There’s still a noticeable difference between this and the regular Blu-ray presentation in terms of fine detail. For one thing, there’s slightly better depth of field and the fine texturing of surfaces stands out more. You see it in the differences in reflectivity and detail between Batman’s cape, cowl, body, and stickered/painted chest decoration. The High Dynamic Range here is HDR-10. It gives the image a strong boost in pop and shine, it enhances the glossy reflectivity of texturing, and it really boosts the translucency of clear LEGO pieces. Shadows and highlights alike are bold and detailed, while the brightest areas of the image are actually a little hot and overexposed by design – a stylistic choice. This isn’t reference quality, but it’s a nice image.

Sound on the 4K disc is available in English Dolby Atmos, along with English 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio, English Descriptive Audio, and 5.1 Dolby Digital in Quebec French, Italian, Castilian Spanish, Mexican Spanish, Colombian Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Catalan, Portuguese, Greek, Hungarian, Romanian, and Thai, with subtitles in English (for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing), the languages above, and many more. The Dolby Atmos mix is the preferred listening option, but know that you have to proactively select it – otherwise the disc defaults to the DTS-HD MA. The mix offers nice immersion and dialogue clarity, with active directional effects, smooth panning, and solid LFE. It’s not a highly aggressive mix, but it does deliver a nice blend of atmospherics, music, and action, and the height channels are actively employed to complete the soundfield and provide a bit of additional lift and dimension.

The only extra on the 4K disc is a feature-length audio commentary with director Chris McKay and about twenty other members of his crew. The package includes a standard Blu-ray Disc as well, with the film in 1080p HD and with the same commentary, that adds the following extras (all in HD):

  • 4 Animated Shorts (Dark Hoser – 2:08, Batman Is Just Not That Into You – 2:10, Cooking with Alfred – 2:02, and Movie Sound Effects: How Do They Do That? – 1:24)
  • The Master: A LEGO Ninjaho Short (5:23)
  • 4 Deleted Scenes (Batcave Studio – 1:43, Lollipop – 2:24, Batman & Mayor Swap – 1:22, and Clayface – 1:45)
  • 6 Featurettes (One Brick at a Time: Making The LEGO Batman Movie – 16:10, Rebrick Contest Winners – 2:47, Inside Wayne Manor – 2:36, Brick by Brick: Making of The LEGO Batman Movie – 3:50, Behind the Brick – 4:13, and Me and My Minifig – :56)
  • 10 Trailers and Promotional Clips

It’s a nice sampling of content and, while it’s not especially comprehensive or vital, it’s all cute. If you like the film, you’ll enjoy most of this too. As with most 4K Ultra HD releases these days, the package also includes a paper slip with a Digital Copy code.

No matter what one’s comic book background is, it should be easy to admit that the Marvel Cinematic Universe is one that leaves room for a little bit of everything, while also being light-hearted, adventurous, and exciting (not to mention well-put together). DC, on the other hand, seems to cloak its celluloid superheroes in an atmosphere of chaos and darkness, leaving hardly any room for color, levity, or even joy. While it’s not technically a part of the DC live action universe,The Lego Batman Movie still manages to be both high-spirited and good-humored, something the DCU almost habitually lacks. It’s a welcome breath of fresh air.

Coagulation - Educational Resources, University of Georgia

Artist Educational Resources, University of Georgia

  • Release Date: 2018-02-28
  • Genre: Medical

After trying unsuccessfully to understand the coagulation cascade, most students simply give up and memorize the cascade. The problem with that way of ‘learning’ is that does not lead to anything that persists.  Consequently, this interactive book was created to help students envision coagulation in a different way. Most importantly, the focus of this book is what is happening at the level of the vascular endothelium in critically ill patients, and how these processes are regulated. While the classical coagulation cascade is included, the more relevant part of this interactive book views hemostasis from a cell-based approach.  Hopefully, this approach will improve a student’s ability to envision, understand and recall this information when necessary.

With One Lousy Free Packet of Seed - Lynne Truss

With One Lousy Free Packet of Seed

Artist Lynne Truss

  • Release Date: 2011-06-16
  • Genre: Mysteries & Thrillers

Lynne Truss's first novel, in which she shows herself to be one of the very best comic writers.

'It was nobody's fault, this widely held assumption that “Come Into the Garden” had long since sought eternal peace in the great magazine rack in the sky. Nevertheless, it required strength of character for those intimately acquainted with the title not to take the comments personally. After all, it was a bit like being dead but not lying down'.

Osborne Lonsdale, a down-at-heel journalist, mysteriously attractive to women, writes a regular celebrity interview for ‘Come Into the Garden’. This week his 'Me and My Shed' column will be based on the charming garden outhouse owned by TV sitcom star Angela Farmer. Unbeknown to Osborne, driving down to Devon to interview Angela in her country retreat, the sleepy magazine has been taken over by new management. So it happens that Osborne's research trip is interrupted by a trainload of anxious hacks from London - Lillian the fluffy blonde secretary, Michelle the sub-editor who has a secret crush on Osborne, and Trent Carmichael, crime novelist and bestselling author of S is for… Secateurs!

'Lynne Truss has written a perfect comic novel' Daily Telegraph

'This book will become a perennial comic delight… this Truss must never be stopped' Sue Limb

‘Hilarious… as witty as a knot garden… Lots of good jokes. I loved it' The Times

About the author

Lynne Truss is one of Britain's best-loved comic writers and is the author of the worldwide bestsellers ‘Eats, Shoots & Leaves’ and ‘Talk to the Hand’. She reviews for the Sunday Times and writes regularly for radio.

The company from you flowers was very impolite after i referred to as customer support. Often, substitutions may be essential to create your bouquet because of the availability of sure flowers in various parts of the nation.

I liked the flowers in their selection and i preferred the roses that they finally delivered, which have been very nice, but i did not just like the customer service which was not so good.

I was horrified to see that the bouquet on avas website wasn’t even close to the flowers my sil obtained. However, when i defined why i needed similar day delivery (my father-in-regulation handed away and i needed to get flowers to my mother-in-law as quickly as potential), they went via further efforts to make that happen. Simply image the smile on their face once they open the door and are introduced with a brilliant bouquet of recent and aromatic flowers created only for them.

Indonesia’s “Forgotten Islands”, also known as the Southeast Moluccas (Maluku Tenggara), are not a single destination, but rather a 1,000 km long chain of archipelagos stretching from Timor to West Papua on the island of New Guinea. Undeveloped, distant from population centers and far off any beaten path, these “Forgotten Islands” have been largely isolated from the rest of Indonesia and the world.

The terrain of these islands varies from forested mountainous peaks in the Inner Banda Arc of islands (Wetar, Damar, Nila), with peaks that goes as high as 868 meters / 2,848 feet to essentially flat islands of the easternmost Aru and Kei island groups, dominated by savannah, mangroves and broadleaf forests. The Inner Arc islands are volcanic, while the island groups in the Outer Banda Arc (Leti, Luang, Sermata, Babar and Tanimbar islands) are mostly up thrust coralline limestone, often characterized by terracing resulting from periodic uplift and changes in sea level.

Diving the Forgotten Islands, one can expect long walls with extremely healthy coral life and immaculate, untouched seamounts. Look for the giant barrel sponges and immense sea fans. In the shallows the hard coral gardens are decorated with colorful anthias. ‘Big stuff’ can include schooling hammerheads, silver, white and black tip reef sharks, napoleon wrasse, mobula rays, bumphead parrotfish, eagle rays, turtles, thresher sharks along with schooling jacks, barracuda, surgeonfish and fusiliers. ‘Small stuff’ includes pygmy seahorses, nudibranchs, ghost pipefish, octopus, triggerfish, lionfish, moray eels, scorpionfish and dragon shrimps.

Indonesia is not greatly affected by seasons that prohibit diving, so instead it is more important to factor in the weather and the calmness of the seas in terms of enjoying the crossings, when planning a trip to this remote archipelago.

The Forgotten Islands on board Dive Gaia offers divers the opportunity to cruise around this chain of remote beautiful islands while enjoying the casual comfort, amenities and unique service that we offer. Itinerary embarks in Maumere (Flores) and disembarks in Tual (Kei Islands). Click here for trip dates (weblink) and route map (weblink). Smaller dive itinerary coverage is also offered in our Banda Sea itinerary.

Romantics and pragmatists

Romantics and pragmatists in the theater “Through the Looking Glass”

“Adult” premieres in St. Petersburg in the new year will not be born in any way, but the children are showered (and thank you!) As if from a cornucopia: in the Prokofievsky Hall of the Mariinsky Theater and in St. Petersburg Opera, in the Musical Comedy and in a small non-public charming Tavrica.

Now in “Through the Looking Glass” – just two performances.

Here, a “special card” was played: “Through the Looking Glass, like the St. Petersburg Opera, – the theater of one director, Alexander Petrov. It is extremely rare for someone else to take part in the production, and this exception is made by Petrov’s graduates – a teacher at the Academy of Theater Arts, on a simple – Theater on Mokhovaya.

Here and now to the “altar” are two young directors – graduates Anna Snegova (she is the singer-soloist of the Looking Glass) and Maria Paveleva. They have one master, of course, Petrov; and the hero of their director’s heart is one – a young composer Ilya Partas, a pupil of the venerable Sergei Slonimsky.

The literary inspirer is also one: Hans Christian Andersen. In general, the company is worthy. The fruit of her joint efforts were two children’s operas – “Swineherd” and “Little Mermaid”, both one-act, not more than an hour.

They go separately, on different days, because the age of viewers does not imply overloading with artistic impressions. So that with the young nails at all not to discourage the taste for opera.

“What is good and what is bad” – you could call the performance “Swineherd”. However, not all so simple. For the young spectator it is an introduction to a romantic opera with its hopelessly idealistic princes (here Denis Snigirev) and their faithful friends (a devoted and artistic nature – Johann’s friend (Denis Bukharaev, the most, perhaps, organic actor in the whole composition)), , but later repented beauties (I note the sonorous moving soprano Elena Zastavna). Sense analogues look for in a big serious opera – “Manon”, “Bohemia”, “Turandot”, etc.

By the nature of music – this is a bow to a diverse classics: a little from Tchaikovsky and other great ones, something from a good Soviet song and, accordingly, pseudo-romantic arias of the Soviet opera. Another household and almost mandatory for the classical opera mazurka and waltz, at a dramatic moment – a real opera ensemble.

And here is the Austrian song “Ah, my dear Augustine” – it is especially in the case here: a magic pot for which the pragmatic princess easily surrendered highly moral principles, Andersen just played this song. Such a vinaigrette turned out, skillfully mixed.

At the same time, it is a bridge to a common operetta: mumps, zazyvno twisting tasks, a comic king, falsely distorted court ladies. So children in an hour of time are very, very formed (from the word education).

On the one hand, the guinea pigs in their roles, of course, are good and perfectly confirm the version that the kingdom is pigish. On the other hand, both the operetta pigs, and the stupid king with popcorn, and some mechanical set of familiar intonations may or may not like, but in all this there is clearly seen the author’s (I.P.) and the director’s (A. Snegova) irony.

Another thing is that it is realized scenically with the help of popular stamps that replace real fantasy. But the children seem to like, laugh (the argument for the cash register is weighty). Actively look at the scene with her wittyly painted artist Maria Medvedev cubes, trapezoids, circles depicting the garden. And on a minimum –

in smartphones, that there is now a higher recognition of the artistic merits of the musical and theatrical performance.

With “Little Mermaid” everything is more complicated. In smartphones look more often. Especially at first and somewhere, after being out of seriousness, in the middle. But this performance is thinner. His seemingly simple scenographic design of Daria Zditovetskaya – moving up and down like pierced theatrical “cardboards” depicting the sea abyss – somehow in an unknown way is in harmony with the naive sincerity of the Little Mermaid. Here is no longer an ironic look from the outside, but an attempt to immerse the viewer-listener in the world of a real lyrical drama.

Thank you, the announcement is hidden.
Thank you, the announcement is hidden.

This approach is better than the ironic attitude of Svinopas? Not at all. It’s just different. And it happened. Hooked. First of all, stylish impressive music, transparency and beauty of orchestral and vocal intonation. And the actor’s hit in the role.

Miniature Marina Tekteleva with her almost childish grace, a small but gently ringing voice and quivering naturalness in every movement is a wonderful Mermaid. In the prologue she sits on a ball in the pose of the famous sculptors Edward Eriksen, a long emerald tail-train streaming to the foot of the monument. And some girl playing sand on the beach, accidentally notices her. “Mom, who is this?” Why is she so sad? “

About this performance. About the passionate desire to be a man and pay for it. Remember the Snow Maiden? “Give my mother’s maiden heart, give love!” And then “I love and I melt …” The Little Mermaid has a love, timid and gentle, but there are no words to express it. Because for the happiness of being a man, the sea maiden gave her immortality, the mermaid’s tail and a wonderful voice.

And the Prince, contrary to the statement that men love eyes and women with ears, wants his choice to be HOW EVERYTHING, wants to hear her admiring speeches. And only after losing true love, he understands that his life does not make sense.

Music “Mermaid”, sustained in a single key, is not completely perceived as monotonous. The flexibility, fluidity of melodies with a barely noticeable touch of Rimsky-Korsakov-style orientalism, the skilful interweaving of the leitmotif of the water world into the fabric of the whole musical narrative, the delicate coloring of orchestration, and the finely tuned dramaturgy culminating in the intense episode of “Kill It!” Give this little opera artistic integrity.

A performance by Pavel, which preserves the poetic tonality, but tinted by contrasting episodes with the underwater witch and her assistants – algae worms or a beautiful scene of light and plastic ball scene, is happily saved by the director from sugary sentimentality. Even the cold-spoken restraint of Prince Sergey Povalyaev works for a common style.

In the finale, the Little Mermaid returns to her nurse, but the Prince also follows her into the water. The stage code is beautiful and ambiguous: not a tragedy, which, probably, is not very necessary for children, but also not happy end. Everything is sad.

However, after the epilogue, when the girl and her mother find beautiful fragrant flowers on the knees of the Little Mermaid, there is a second epilogue – dance bows, and this is a real happy ending.

It would seem, so what? Bowing to music is an ordinary thing. But the sense of form, well-adjusted by the director and choreographer (Alexander Zhuravlyov), works here, and everything is somehow successfully looped into the eternal story that “love is never without sadness, but it’s more pleasant than sadness without love.”

Latest news of the domain name industry

Complaints over 50% .uk price hike

Kevin Murphy, November 27, 2015, Domain Registries

.uk registrars are petitioning Nominet to complain about plans to increase the price of a .uk domain name by up to 50%.

The registry announced the price increase, which will come into effect March 1 next year, on Wednesday.

A one-year registration will go up to £3.75 ($5.65) wholesale, still cheaper than any gTLD I can think of.

Currently, Nominet charges £3.50 for a one-year reg and £2.50 per year for multi-year registrations.

The company heavily hinted, in an email, that some of this extra cash will wind up in registrars’ pockets, due to promotional spending:

Our new pricing strategy aims to accomplish three things. Firstly, as with any business the price we charge is linked to our ability to deliver a fantastic service. Secondly, we want to invest in the .UK namespace to ensure we can differentiate over the long-term. Thirdly, we want to be able to invest in marketing and promotions in order to secure prominence at point of sale – which our current pricing levels cannot support.

The price of a .uk domain has not increased since 1999, Nominet said.

Increasing the price from a posh coffee to a London beer is presumably not a big deal for most registrants, but domainer-registrars are unhappy.

Andrew Bennett of Netistrar has set up a web site at egm.uk to call for “outraged” registrants and Nominet members to voice their opposition to the changes.

The site points out that Nominet has said it will review its pricing annually.

It calls on Nominet to have a three-month public consultation then a member vote before introducing the changes.

At time of publication, 77 registrants and 47 Nominet members have signed the petition.

On its web site, Nominet lists 2,048 members.

My recent post of photos taken at the 2009 First Weymouth Week seems to have gone down quite well because Richard Hutson of the Bournemouth and New Forest Section got in touch and offered me a whole lot more from various runs that Dorset Section members took part in.

So many thanks to Richard for his photographs and shown here with his permission.

  1. DigitalPatroller DP-2 Spec. Sheet
  1. Integrated Command Brochure
  1. Digital In-Car Video Brochure

DigitalPatroller DP-2 is an in-vehicle video system designed and built specifically for use by law enforcement. It is rugged enough to run continuously inside a moving police vehicle. The mobile data management system automatically records and stores video and audio to a ruggedized hard drive. Once back at headquarters, video is stored and catalogued in a digital video library, and can be found and retrieved in minutes.

Type: Software Applications
Manufacturer: Motorola Solutions
Model Number: DP2

Helps Protect your Officers and the Public

Having thorough, well-catalogued audio and video records of all your officers' interactions with suspects and the public discourages spurious accusations against the officers and frivolous lawsuits against your department, helping your department protect its reputation and maintain trust in the community.

Suspects faced with video evidence are less likely to dispute charges against them in court. Your ability to produce such evidence may mean the difference between an officer having to sit in court and testify, and an officer able to stay on patrol.

Easy to Use

Recording automatically activates when triggered by an event such as light bar being turned on, exceeding a speed threshold, door opening/closing or a crash. Because the system is on continuously, it can even be configured to retain video and audio from a few minutes before the triggering event.

Designed for Law Enforcement

An officer patrolling the streets deserves better than hardware designed for a desk job. That's why DP-2 was designed from the ground up to operate in police vehicles. It's ruggedized to deal with the vibration of a moving car. In-vehicle storage can be made redundant, or even fully solid-state, ensuring that video continues to be captured even through the most severe vibrations.

Multiple Cameras

Video data can be captured through one camera&nbsp;or two cameras simultaneously. Like other parts of the DP-2 system, the cameras are built to work through the temperature and voltage fluctuations and extreme vibrations that can occur inside a police cruiser.

Sound with Video

Besides video, DP-2 also records audio evidence. The wireless microphone worn by the officer is built to synchronize with the recorded video.

Find the Video you Need

The Digital Video Management System that handles back-end operations for DP-2 maintains a catalog of all video taken, broken down by date and time, type of incident, officers involved, etc. This helps save many staff hours of manually cataloguing video tapes. Because the video is digital, it can be easily copied ? to share with other authorities, help build a case, train other officers, or simply for backups. With your&nbsp;IT staff performing proper backups, the risk of data loss is substantially lower than for VHS media libraries.&nbsp;

Between the learning experience of the Drachenbox One, and the DrachenberryPi configurations, I had a few parts left over, which was irritating.  It pains me to have useful components like LiPo batteries and charging circuits sitting idly in storage until another project needing them comes along.  It occurred to me later than I’d like to admit that a LiPo battery and charging circuit makes for a great project in and of itself.

I remember my first run-in with additive manufacturing.  It was almost a decade ago while touring the facility at my summer internship during college.  It was massive and had its own dedicated room, was expensive to own, and pricey to run.  I don’t think I saw it being used the entire time I was there, but did notice almost every engineer’s desk had small 3D printed tchotchkes like hands and buckyballs.

I was amazed by this new technology (yes, I know it’s been around for longer than a decade). and marveled at the immense potential of taking the digital and at the push of a button, manifesting it into the physical realm.  It seemed too futuristic… almost magical.

gallbladder surgery Dr Amit Gi Surgeon

Gall bladder Surgery: Myths and Facts

Gallbladder stone formation is common and the standard treatment for symptomatic gallbladder stone is Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal). Gall bladder is an important organ of our body but a body can still function well in its absence.

Myth: Lifelong we have to avoid fatty food

Fact: Liver produces bile and stored in the gallbladder and the function of bile is the digestion of fat, so when we eat a meal that is high in fat content, bile is released from gallbladder to duodenum for fat digestion, but after surgery when gallbladder is removed bile produced in the liver is released in a continuous slow trickle into the intestine. Thus the adequate amount of bile may not be there in the intestine initially for the normal absorption process and a patient may develop diarrhea and bloat but with time body get streamline; so we need to consume after surgery low-fat diet for few weeks till our body gets used to the new situation of gall bladder absence.

Myth: Gall bladder removal only removes gallstones

Fact: Stones formation in the gallbladder reflect a poor and abnormal function of the gall . So, there is no way of keeping the gall bladder because it is inflamed and function improperly and its removal will avoid subsequent stones formation and complications.

Myth: Scarring at the surgical site

Fact: Nowadays surgery is done laparoscopically which requires only 3-4 small cuts in the abdomen and the gall bladder is removed through this small hole so scarring will be almost nil. Patients typically have less post-operative pain and experience a faster recovery period than open surgery.

Obesity Causes Liver Damage Equivalent to Alcohol Abuse

These are two very different health issues, but both cause liver damage in a similar fashion. Fatty Liver disease is a condition which develops when fat is deposit in the liver. Both Obesity and Alcohol abuse can lead to fatty liver. When fatty liver occurs in those who do not take alcohol like obesity, it is called nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, or NAFLD.

When there is too much fat deposition in the liver, it leads to an inflammatory process in the liver and the liver cells get damaged, this severe form is called nonalcoholic steatohepatitis or NASH, and this continuous liver cell damage can lead to cirrhosis and ultimately liver failure

Tennis hothead terrifies ball boy

THIS terrified ball kid at the Shanghai Masters had no idea what was going through Alexander Zverev’s mind after the 21-year-old claimed a crucial point over opponent Nicoloz Basilashvili.

An aggressive fist pump from the World No. 5 had the young boy rocking back in fear — and it may just be the next great sporting meme.

The fourth-seeded Zverev was also struggling with a cold, but he beat Basilashvili 7-5, 6-4.

Basilashvili arrived in Shanghai after beating del Potro in Beijing to win his second career title.

“I played an opponent who has a lot of confidence,” Zverev said. “Obviously he’s playing the best tennis of his life, winning in Beijing, and obviously he had a very good match yesterday,as well.

“He knows how to play, definitely. Probably the hardest-hitting player I have ever played against.” Zverev is playing in Shanghai without his coach, Ivan Lendl, who was in Beijing last week. Lendl flew back to the United Statesto have wrist surgery, which Zverev said was caused by playing too much golf. Lendl is due to return to the tour before the end of the season.

All three still advanced at the Shanghai Masters on Wednesday. Federer, the defending champion, beat Daniil Medvedev 6-4, 4-6, 6-4 in the second round despite being broken late in the second set.

“I was able to mix it up. Really also took some chances, serve and volley, second serve,” the top-seeded Federer said.

“In the third set I really started to figure it out, as well, how aggressive or how tactical I wanted to make the match. And by trying everything, I found a solution at the end, which was a great feeling to have.” The third-seeded del Potro trailed in the first set and in the tiebreaker but rebounded both times to beat Richard Gasquet 7-5, 7-6 (7).

“It wasn’t easy to play for me today,” said del Potro, who reached the China Open final last week. “I did what I can. I didn’trun too much. But I think I played with all my strength in the important moment of the match. “I would love to feel better,” he added. “I have been talking with the doctors every day.”

Earlier, 10th-seeded Stefanos Tsitsipas beat Karen Khachanov 6-4, 7-6 (8) – the second straight year that the Greek playerhas defeated Khachanov in the second round in Shanghai.

“We played here last year and it was the place I got my first ATP win,” Tsitsipas said. “I knew today was going to be a differentmatch. I played every single point as if there was no tomorrow.”

In the sciences the combination of different types of analysis, textual and visual, contributes to the legibility of the results of the research. Techniques such as data visualization and information graphics have a long history in the natural and social sciences. Recently, researchers in the humanities have got interested in producing visualizations to synthesize facts and trends. The purpose is to create novel observations and analysis of historical and cultural data. This paper presents the use of programming and markup languages to design a custom and open tool for the creation of one particular type of historical data visualization: chronologies.

KEYWORDS: Data visualization, chronology, XML, processing.

PD: The processing sketch is available here: http://bit.ly/1pifGi1
