Lore, not the English word for a body of tradition but the German female name, is the title. The film is set in northern Germany, mid-1945. The war is just ending. The German people are the subject, as seen through only a few of them. Lore is the teenage daughter, about sixteen, of an SS officer and his equally Nazi wife. We are going to meet a few of the cheering thousands we saw in newsreels, now that the cheering is over.
The opening atmosphere is an exploded dream. Here is a family—parents, Lore, and her four younger siblings—who have lived in a set of robust certainties and are now now stripped. The father has been ordered to report to a dismissal camp, soon to be followed by his wife. At the start the parents are grim, trying to get used to the new world. Lore, alert but puzzled, is also trying to comprehend that strange new world. The father packs and, disturbed and quarrelsome, leaves. The mother, stony in despair, prepares Lore to take care of of her sister and brothers, including an infant. The mother cannot take them with her, and she charges Lore with the job of getting them all across country to a relative in Hamburg. The mother's ease in abandoning her children, possibly because it may be better for them, seems to be part of the anesthetized time. She goes. Lore and the other children begin their journey.
Thus we are invited into sympathy – or at least understanding – for a people who were loathed and fearful enemies. The lapse of time since 1945 helps, of course; still it is more or or less difficult to face what was always true. Those teeming thousands in those newsreels, were people, too, even at the worst of Nazi times. That is the picture's daring point. Not to excuse them, but to underscore the fact that even when we hated them, they were people, too. Of course this has been true throughout the wars of history and will be true in every present and future war until the conflicts are over and the loathsome people have been defeated.
This film was made in Europe by the Australian Cate Shortland, who wrote the screenplay with Robin Mukherjee based on a novel by Rachel Seiffert. Shortland is deft and discreet, showing us only what we absolutely need to see, including a good deal of the lovely countryside through which this gray story moves, as rendered by Adam Arkapaw's responsive camera. Under Lore's agreeably firm hand, the family makes its way, buying food as they can with the meager funds and jewelry that their mother gave them. Along the way they move through an emotionally tattered land. (One older woman says sadly as she looks at a photo of Hitler, "He loved us all so much.") And as a sort of compensation, some of them even believe that the American soldiers now on hand are all actors paid to say the things they say.
Along the road Lore and her brood meet Thomas, a young man who, he says, survived the camps. When he has to show his papers to a guard, Lore sees that they are marked "Jude," which now, in this reversed world, gets him through. Affection grows between Lore and Thomas—he even kills a man who is assaulting her, and then they merely move along in this battered country. But neither of them is really ready for love. He admits later on that he has stolen the Jewish papers in order to be safe—in Germany. At last Lore's group reaches its Hamburg relatives—minus one boy who was cruelly lost on the trip. They are welcomed. Still, we see what the journey has done to Lore and presumably to the others.
Saskia Rosendahl as Lore is the sturdiest in a good cast, making her way cautiously into a new, utterly changed universe. She made me remember that in 1964 I was in Hamburg and met a woman who told me how, during the Allied air raids of 1943, when she was six, she and her younger sister had hugged in their basement, quivering with fear. I remembered how thrilled I and my friends were by those raids. Shortland has shown us vividly some of the inevitable moral concussions of war.
A re-meeting, so to speak. In 1966 I went to an Off-Broadway production of a dramatized Turgenev story. In the setting of a Moscow office I saw an unknown actor give an expert performance of a middle-aged musty clerk. When I learned that this actor was only in his twenties, I was even more impressed. His name was Dustin Hoffman.
Not long afterward he played the male lead for his first solid film role in The Graduate and became the epic collegian of the day, looking for the way to use his life. Thus began a film career astonishing in its range—a city knockabout, an autistic sufferer, a Devil's Island prisoner, dozens of other men, and one pseudo-woman. And, not incidentally, he triumphed in this film career though he was short, not especially good-looking, and distinctly not the usual Hollywood Anglo-Saxon male. Behold! This phenomenal actor, now seventy-five, is beginning another career. He has directed a film.
It is called Quartet—not to be confused with the current A Late Quartet—and it is, as was often the case with Hoffman's acting roles, a surprise. It is set in an English home for retired musicians. (It is called the Sir Thomas Beecham Home for Retired Musicians, a huge mansion with ample beautiful grounds, but in fact the place is a private residence that has been rented for the occasion.) The residents are all well-known English singers or instrumentalists or English actors playing such. Maggie Smith and Tom Courtenay—and Michael Gambon as the chairman of the group—are of course fine actors, here being musicians for a while. Smith is a former prima donna, and Courtenay is a singer who once was her husband.
The first thing to note is that Hoffman has apparently had a grand time working with these professionals, all of whom as residents of the home are splendid. His direction, except for a bit of over-editing early on that makes the start a bit choppy, is understanding and fluent, and some moments, like Smith's arrival in the home, are ingeniously handled. The screenplay, adapted by Ronald Harwood from a play of his, has to do with reuniting the two divorcees in Verdi's Rigoletto quartet. The husband was badly hurt in their long-ago divorce. And much of the story is maneuverings to get them together again. It is all a bit thin, but in a sense this doesn't matter. The important thing was to spend a hundred minutes or so with these people in that place.
In fact, it occurred to me that if elderly musicians ever dream of an afterlife, it might be much like this. An exquisitely furnished, spacious Valhalla, well-staffed, and full of old chums. The life beyond, as Hoffman might agree, could certainly be worse.

Ever since its founding in 2002, the spirit of independence cultivated by the Manufacture De Bethune has been driving its teams and is clearly apparent in terms of both the projects undertaken and the resulting achievements.This creative as well as technical freedom has enabled the R&D division to tackle research in the field of fundamental horology, particularly geared towards improving the regulating organ of mechanical watches.
The multi-disciplinary skills and the technical experience of its team have enabled it to open up a whole new chapter on the escapement and oscillators, by breaking free of existing escapements and sprung balances.
The development of its own balance wheels featuring high quality factors such as thermal self-compensation, an optimised weight/inertia ratio and a semi-rigid terminal curve, led to the integration of its innovations within various in-house calibres: different types of patented De Bethune balance wheels, a De Bethune balance spring with flat terminal curve; and a silicon escape wheel.
The brand thus began equipping its watches with several 28,800 vph calibres and three 36,000 movements in tourbillon, chronograph and tourbillon chronograph versions.
High frequency has been proven and acknowledged to be a significant factor for the mechanical movement of a wristwatch, because the higher the frequency of its calibre, the less it will be sensitive to the inevitable shocks sustained by a watch when worn on the wrist.
A number of tests were conducted with a view to increasing the frequency of the regulating organ. In 2006, De Bethune presented its first timepiece beating at a frequency of 72,000 vph (10 Hz), equipped with a silicon escapement and a self-compensating sprung balance.
This watch and its lab clones demonstrated that increasing the frequency of the sprung balance beyond 5 Hz necessarily implies risks and premature wear of components – results that were incompatible with De Bethune's self-imposed standards of quality and reliability. Since the limits of the current system had been reached, it was clearly time to move on to a radical alternative solution making it possible to achieve 10 to 100 times higher frequencies yet without disturbing the smooth running of the movement or damaging its components.
This involved increasing the quality of the oscillator, the efficiency of the escapement, as well as working with low amplitudes in order to guarantee a power reserve sufficient to be applied to a wristwatch.
The field of research was therefore broadened and new paths were explored that quickly led to a new series of experiments and a number of tests.
As of 2007, De Bethune launched studies on various types of "oscillating" resonators and escapements in order to move beyond the maximum 5 Hz frequency critical threshold defined by the De Bethune technical laboratory. This field of research proved to be truly vast, given the diversity of the shapes and materials that can be made to resonate, as well as the boundless potential for inventing different types of escapement.
On December 8th 2011, De Bethune officially and publicly announced its research in the field of fundamental horology aimed at developing a new type of regulating organ named Résonique.
The concept and the innovative idea are not patented, given the vast scope of the research in a previously unexplored field. This choice tends to apply the so-called "open source" models based on transparency and information-sharing aimed at achieving enhanced productivity and typically used in IT, scientific, technological and even artistic fields, where the concept of intellectual property is rapidly evolving.
De Bethune wanted its work on Résonique to be shared and picked up by the watchmaking community in order to work together and jointly contribute to the significant development and fine-tuning of an alternative solution to the sprung balance system and the traditional lever escapement.
By way of reminder, an acoustic oscillator vibrating at a frequency of 928 Hz (6,681,600 vph) with a new magnetic-type escapement had been presented at the press conference on December 8th 2011.
Several articles, a blog and a presentation at the Société Suisse de Chronométrie (SSC) provided an account of De Bethune's work on the operation of this prototype.
The evolution of our research in fundamental horology over the past two years leads us to the following observation:
The improvement of an oscillator's performance depends both on its intrinsic properties and on the type of movement powering it. It was thus important to opt for a continuous movement rather than a back-and-forth system and to avoid a pivoting oscillator.
De Bethune focused on two particular issues:
=> testing various types of resonators with several degrees of freedom; and
=> creating an escapement designed to avoid the stopping and back-and-forth motion that disturb traditional lever escapements.
Films from the De Bethune technical laboratory show large-sized resonators adapted to various degree of freedom in operation and sustained by a freely rotating magnetic escapement.
Exclusive: This type of magnetic escapement leaves the resonator several cycles of free oscillations between each impulse phase.
De Bethune contributes on its own level to influencing and stimulating watchmaking development. Résonique, which represents a complete break with the traditional sprung balance, has generated a new process of reflection and paved the way for a number of developments, multi-partner research projects, patent registrations, and many other confidential studies. It is thus definitely by communicating and sharing knowledge that ideas are born and take shape.
The forthcoming developments from the technical laboratory will involve defining the chronometric (precision timing) properties of the various resonators with several degrees of freedom, as well as the development of a free magnetic escapement with secure synchronisation.
The www.resonique.com blog will soon be enhanced by some of our latest research and notably by some high-speed camera video recordings of the above-described oscillators and escapements.
The Watches TV visits De Bethune's manufacture where Denis Flageollet, co-founder and Head of Technical Department, explains their new approach to the regulation of watches: A magnetic oscillating system opening the door to frequencies as high as 20'000 Hertz.

Testosterone is the key male sex hormone, but is also important for women. It plays a crucial role in muscle growth, fat loss, and optimal health. However, testosterone levels in men are now lower than ever, partly caused by the unhealthy modern-day lifestyle.
Testosterone boosters are natural supplements that can increase your testosterone levels. They work by directly increasing testosterone or related hormones, but some work by preventing testosterone from being converted into estrogen. Many of these boosters have been scientifically verified in human studies.
Here are the eight best testosterone boosting supplements.
1. D-Aspartic Acid
D-Aspartic acid is a natural amino acid that can boost low testosterone levels. Research suggests that the primary way it works is by increasing follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone. This is important, because luteinizing hormone makes the Leydig cells in the testes produce more testosterone.
Initial research in animals and humans has found that as little as 12 days of D-aspartic acid seems to increase luteinizing hormone as well as testosterone production and transportation around the body.
It may also aid in sperm quality and production. One 90-day study gave D-aspartic acid to men with impaired sperm production. Sperm count doubled, rising from 8.2 million sperm per ml to 16.5 million sperm per ml.
In another study, athletic men with healthy testosterone levels followed a 28-day weight-lifting routine. Half of them were given 3 grams of D-aspartic acid per day. Both groups showed significantly increased strength and muscle mass. However, there was no increase in testosterone in the D-aspartic acid group.
Taken together, these findings suggest that taking D-aspartic acid may be most beneficial in people with low testosterone or in those with impaired sexual function, but not necessarily in individuals with normal testosterone levels.
2. Vitamin D
Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin produced in the skin when exposed to sunlight. Its active form functions as a steroid hormone in the body. Nowadays, a large portion of the population has very little exposure to sunlight, resulting in low or deficient levels of vitamin D. Increasing your vitamin D stores may boost testosterone and improve other related health measures, such as sperm quality.
One study found a close correlation between vitamin D deficiency and low testosterone. When participants spent more time in the summer sun and their vitamin D levels increased, so did their testosterone levels. In a year-long study, 65 men were split into 2 groups. Half of them took 3,300 IU of vitamin D every day. The supplement group's vitamin D levels doubled and their testosterone levels increased by around 20%, from 10.7 nmol/l to 13.4 nmol/l.
To get more vitamin D, increase your sun exposure. You can also take around 3,000 IU of vitamin D3 daily and eat more vitamin-D-rich foods.
3. Tribulus Terrestris
Tribulus (Tribulus terrestris) is an herb that has been used for centuries in herbal medicine. Most of the current research on it consists of animal studies, which show improved sex drive and increased testosterone levels.
One 90-day study in men with erectile dysfunction found that taking tribulus improved self-reported ratings of sexual health and increased testosterone levels by 16%. However, the current research has shown no benefit of taking tribulus for young elite athletes and healthy individuals with normal testosterone levels.
As with most other testosterone boosters, it appears tribulus has benefits in those with low testosterone or impaired sexual function, but does not appear to increase testosterone in individuals with normal or healthy levels.
4. Fenugreek
Fenugreek is another popular herb-based testosterone booster. Some research suggests it may work by reducing the enzymes that convert testosterone into estrogen.
One of the most comprehensive studies tested two groups of 15 college men over an eight-week period. All 30 participants performed resistance training four times a week, but only the participants in one of the groups received 500 mg of fenugreek per day.
Both free and total testosterone levels increased in the fenugreek group, whereas the group that only weight trained actually experienced a slight decline. Those who took fenugreek also experienced a greater increase in fat loss and strength.
Another study examined how fenugreek affects sexual function and quality of life. The researchers provided 60 healthy men between 25 and 52 years old with either 600 mg of fenugreek or an empty placebo pill every day for six weeks.
The participants reported improvements in strength after taking the fenugreek supplements. The researchers also found:
- Increased libido: 81% of the group.
- Improved sexual performance: 66% of the group.
- Greater energy levels: 81% of the group.
- Improved well-being: 55% of the group.
5. Ginger
Ginger is a common household spice that has played a role in alternative medicine for centuries. It has many health benefits, with strong research showing it may reduce inflammation and maybe even boost testosterone levels.
Several studies in rats have found ginger has positive effects on testosterone levels and sexual function. In one 30-day study, researchers found ginger increased testosterone and luteinizing hormone in diabetic rats.
In another study, the rats' testosterone levels nearly doubled. A third study found greater increases in testosterone when they doubled the amount of ginger they gave the rats.
In one of the few human studies, 75 infertile men were given a daily ginger supplement. After three months, they had experienced a 17% increase in testosterone levels and their levels of luteinizing hormone had nearly doubled. When measuring sperm health, the researchers found several improvements, including a 16% increase in sperm count.
Although it is still early days in the research on ginger and testosterone, eating ginger is very safe and provides numerous other health benefits.
Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a naturally occurring hormone within the body. It plays a role in boosting testosterone and controlling estrogen levels. Based on its biological effects, DHEA has become an extremely popular way to boost testosterone.
Out of all the testosterone boosting supplements, DHEA has the best and most extensive research behind it.
Several studies have found that 50-100 mg of DHEA per day can boost testosterone levels by up to 20% when compared to a placebo. However, as with most supplements, the results are mixed. Several other studies used similar dosing protocols and found no effect.
For this reason, the effects of DHEA on testosterone levels aren't clear. Nevertheless, DHEA use is banned in professional sports and therefore not suitable for competitive athletes. As with some of the other supplements, it may benefit those with low DHEA or testosterone levels.
7. Zinc
Known as an aphrodisiac, zinc is an essential mineral involved in more than 100 chemical processes within the body. As with vitamin D, zinc levels within the body have been closely associated with testosterone levels.
One study that measured this association found that restricting zinc intake from foods lowered testosterone levels in healthy men. As expected, zinc supplements in zinc deficient men also increased testosterone levels.
Another study measured the effects of zinc on infertile men with either low or normal testosterone levels. The researchers found significant benefits for those with low levels, including increased testosterone and sperm count. However, they found no additional benefit for men with normal levels.
In elite wrestlers, taking zinc each day also helped reduce a decline in testosterone levels following a 4-week high-intensity training regimen.
In light of these studies, zinc may help boost testosterone levels if you have low testosterone or are deficient in zinc. Taking zinc also appears to be helpful if you struggle to recover from high-intensity exercise.
8. Ashwagandha
Also known as Withania somnifera,ashwagandha is another herb used in ancient Indian medicine. Ashwagandha is primarily used as an adaptogen, meaning it helps your body handle stress and anxiety.
One study tested its benefits on sperm quality in infertile men, who received 5 grams per day over a three-month period. The men in this study had a 10-22% increase in testosterone levels. In addition, the partners of 14% of participants became pregnant.
Another study suggests ashwagandha increases exercise performance, strength and fat loss, while also boosting testosterone levels significantly. At present, it seems likely that ashwagandha could help increase testosterone levels in stressed individuals, possibly by reducing the stress hormone cortisol.
Healthy Testosterone Levels Are Crucial
Testosterone is absolutely crucial for many aspects of health and body composition. From the age of 25–30, a man's testosterone levels naturally start to decline. This is a problem because strong research shows a link between low testosterone and obesity, increased disease risk and premature death.
Healthy testosterone levels are also important for women, along with other key hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. Therefore, everyone should take the necessary lifestyle steps to optimize testosterone levels. You will improve your health and body at the same time.
Interestingly, hundreds of testosterone-boosting supplements are now available. However, only a few have significant research behind them. Most of these supplements will likely only cause noticeable benefits in individuals with fertility issues or low testosterone levels.
Some also appear to benefit competitive athletes or dieters, who often experience significant decreases in testosterone due to a restrictive or stressful regimen. Many of them may also work for healthy and active individuals (such as weight lifters), but this hasn't been studied properly in most cases.

Why Community Colleges Should Care about Obama Care
By Abigail Newcomer
Update (6/24/2013): The recorded webinar and webinar slides are now available. The webinar FAQs and brief are also available.
Under the Affordable Care Act (ACA)—the health care reform law known commonly as "Obama Care"—individuals will have new insurance options starting January 1, 2014. The law will also make having health coverage a legal requirement.
Currently, young adults ages 18 to 34 are twice as likely to be uninsured as older adults. ACA will address that issue with new health coverage options for young adults, many of which will be open for enrollment beginning October 2013. But these individuals will only benefit if they know they are eligible and are able to enroll.
Because many of these individuals are students, community colleges are in a great position to help connect them to coverage. Students at these institutions are disproportionately uninsured. And without health insurance, they risk medical or financial hardship that could prevent them from earning a college degree.
Community colleges also stand to benefit from ACA. When covered by new no and low-cost health insurance options, students will be less likely to grapple with large, unexpected medical costs, increasing their chances of academic success. Connecting students to health coverage could advance the completion agenda.
As part of Benefits Access for College Completion, CLASP has teamed up with Young Invincibles to develop a new guide for community college leadership, faculty, and staff that shows how to connect their students to health coverage. This guide includes information about:
- Student health insurance options;
- How to apply;
- Who can help; and
- Key messages and outreach methods community colleges can use to inform students about their health insurance options.
On Wednesday, June 19, from 2:00 – 3:15 pm EDT, CLASP will host a webinar on the topic with Young Invincibles and Enroll America, two leading organizations raising awareness about the potential impact of ACA on community college students across the country. The webinar is aimed at community college leadership, faculty, and staff, but is open to anyone who would like to join. Register for the webinar here.

Free Calling with Google Maps
December 28th, 2006 Brian HerzogI don't know how long this has been around, but just today I noticed that Google Maps has a built-in feature for calling businesses - for free.
When you search for a business in Google Maps, say, the "Chelmsford Public Library, Chelmsford MA," Google will display the location on a map, as well as list on the left the name, address and phone number of matching business/organizations.
Next to the phone number, though, there's a "call" link which I never saw before. Clicking on it opens a box into which you enter your own telephone number. When you click the "Connect for free" button, the service will call your number, and when you answer, automatically connect you to that business' phone number.
And best of all, Google pays for the call (if you're using a cell phone, you still pay for your airtime). I've heard of internet calling before, but never saw it so seamlessly and usefully integrated. Of course you have to type in your own number, and hope that Google keeps their promise of protecting your number.
For more about this service, see Google Maps' help page.

There is something special about Eastern Kentucky University: We call it "the Power of Maroon."
Eastern Further, a group of Eastern alumnae who recognize the positive impact that EKU has had on our lives, has organized a running team to compete in the Disney Princesses Half Marathon in February 2013.
We hope to raise $10,000 to seed a women's leadership scholarship that might encourage female leaders — the type of enthusiastic and supportive women who made our Eastern experiences so special.

When I was ten, we moved from Maryland to Trinidad in the West Indies, where we lived for approximately four years. During that time, I had the opportunity to see many of the Windward and Leeward Islands, and as an adult I have slowly ticked off my list the ones I wanted to visit, but I had never set foot in Saint Barthélemy. In early 2016, I decided it was time to see the Leeward isle and made plans for a late-November trip. read more…
American Airlines
Australia 2014: Sydney – Part 2
After our guided tour of the Sydney Opera House, we broke tradition with all the tramping we had done and ate dessert for lunch at Guylian Belgian Chocolate Café near the opera house. We ordered slices of chocolate cheesecake and washed it down with hot chocolate while we people-watched on the outdoor patio.
Now that we had packed on the calories, we again played tourist for the afternoon, sightseeing and shopping, adding to the Kathmandu bag we had purchased in Christchurch—a smart luggage addition certain to come in handy for future travels.
Back at the Marriott, we changed for dinner at Tetsuya's. The food and the service can be summed up in one word: exceptional. As for the ambience, it's an architectural oasis in the heart of the city. Please excuse the rumpled menu (shown at the end of this post). It didn't survive the flight home as well as we did.
On our last morning in Sydney, we paid a visit to Sammie to say goodbye to the sea lion who had become a famous fixture on the dock steps near the opera house. From there, we walked to Dawes Point, the site of Australia's first fortified position, constructed in 1788 to protect the cove from foreign invaders. All that remains of the former Dawes Point Battery, which was manned until 1916, are five cannons. The fort was removed during construction of Sydney Harbour Bridge, which passes above the park.
The week before our scheduled departure from Sydney to the DFW International Airport, Quantas/American Airlines had put into operation its first Airbus A380, and this would be our first flight on the transatlantic, long-reach jet. As we settled in for the seventeen-hour flight, I wondered why someone couldn't bring back the Concorde, and of course speed it up for an even faster ride.
In an earlier blog post I mention that The Henry Jones Art Hotel was purchased by the Federal Group. Every time I left the hotel, I wondered with great curiosity what might be housed in the giant warehouse sitting on the waterfront adjacent to the Henry Jones. And I was still wondering when I began to dig into Hobart's convict past for these series of blog posts. "It's just a giant shipping shed," the concierge told me. But what a great location—right on the River Derwent with a fabulous view of Mount Wellington—the perfect site for restaurants, shops, or art galleries. So I was delighted to come across this article during my recent research: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/travel/article-4723752/Review-Macq01-hotel- Now my interest in Tasmania's compelling convict history has been piqued again. Perhaps it is time to delve deeper into the past of Elizabeth "Ma Dwyer," the landlady and madam of "The Blue House?"
Until next week. "G'day."

Daniel Pipes admits he was wrong to dismiss the Kurds back in 1991
Before welcoming the emerging state of Kurdistan in northern Iraq, I confess to having opposed its independence in the past.
In 1991, after the Kuwait War had ended and as Saddam Hussein attacked Iraq's six million Kurds, I made three arguments against American intervention on their behalf, arguments still commonly heard today: (1) Kurdish independence would spell the end of Iraq as a state, (2) it would embolden Kurdish agitation for independence in Syria, Turkey, and Iran, leading to destabilization and border conflicts, and (3) it would invite the persecution of non-Kurds, causing "large and bloody exchanges of population."
Map showing the Kurdistan Regional Government, with the just-conquered province of Kirkuk in green.
All three expectations proved flat-out wrong. Given Iraq's wretched domestic and foreign track record, the end of a unified Iraq promises relief, as do Kurdish stirrings in the neighboring countries. Syria has fracturing into its three ethnic and sectarian components: Kurdish, Sunni Arab, and Shi'i Arab, which promises benefits in the long term. Kurds' departing Turkey usefully impedes the reckless ambitions of now-President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. Similarly, Kurds decamping Iran helpfully diminishes that arch-aggressive mini-empire. Far from non-Kurds fleeing Iraqi Kurdistan, as I feared, the opposite has occurred: hundreds of thousands of refugees are pouring in from the rest of Iraq to benefit from Kurdistan's security, tolerance, and opportunities.
I can account for these errors: In 1991, no one knew that autonomous Kurdish rule in Iraq would flourish as it has. The Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG), which came into existence the following year, can be called (with only some exaggeration) the Switzerland of the Muslim Middle East. Its armed, commercially-minded mountain people seek to be left alone to prosper.
One could also not have known in 1991 that the Kurdish army, the peshmerga, would establish itself as a competent and disciplined force; that the KRG would reject the terrorist methods then notoriously in use by Kurds in Turkey; that the economy would boom; that the Kurds' two leading political families, the Talabanis and Barzanis, would learn to coexist; that the KRG would engage in responsiblediplomacy; that its leadership would sign international trade accords; that ten institutions of higher learning would come into existence; and that Kurdish culture would blossom.
But all this did happen. As Israeli scholar Ofra Bengio describes it, "autonomous Kurdistan has proved to be the most stable, prosperous, peaceful, and democratic part of Iraq."
Erbil, the capital of Iraqi Kurdistan, is flourishing.
What's next on the KRG agenda?
The first item, after severe losses to the Islamic State, is for the peshmerga to retrain, re-arm, and tactically ally with such former adversaries as the Iraqi central government and the Turkish Kurds, steps which have positive implications for Kurdistan's future.
Second, the KRG leadership has signaled its intention to hold a referendum on independence, which it rightly presumes will generate a ringing popular endorsement. Diplomacy, however, lags behind. The Iraqi central government, of course, opposes this goal, as do the great powers, reflecting their usual caution and concern for stability. (Recall George H.W. Bush's 1991 "Chicken Kiev speech.")
However, given the KRG's superior record, outside powers should encourage its independence. Pro-government media in Turkeyalready do. U.S. vice president Joe Biden might build on his 2006 suggestion of "giving each ethno-religious group – Kurd, Sunni Arab and Shiite Arab – room to run its own affairs, while leaving the central government in charge of common interests."
Third: What if Iraqi Kurds joined forces across three borders – as they have done on occasion – and form a single Kurdistan with a population of about 30 million and possibly a corridor to the Mediterranean Sea? Oneof the largest ethnic group in the world without a state (a debatable claim: e.g., the Kannadiga of India), the Kurds missed their chance in the post-World War I settlement because they lacked the requisite intellectuals and politicians.
Every map of the Kurdish peoples differs from the others.
This one offers an estimate of their geographic extent, including a corridor to the Mediterranean Sea.
The emergence now of a Kurdish state would profoundly alter the region by simultaneously adding a sizable new country and partially dismembering its four neighbors. This prospect would be dismaying in most of the world. But the Middle East – still in the grip of the wretched Sykes-Picot deal secretly negotiated by European powers in 1916 – needs a salutary shake-up.
From this perspective, the emergence of a Kurdish state is part of the region-wide destabilization, dangerous but necessary, that began in Tunisia in December 2010. Accordingly, I offer a hearty welcome to its four potential parts joining soon together to form a single united Kurdistan.

My Sabbatical Project
Oxford University Press will be publishing my latest book, An Introduction to the Theory of Numbers and Zombies. This is a revised edition of the classic text of Hardy and Wright, modified to include new results in algebraic number theory and zombiosis. I am particularly proud of the new chapter that discusses Wiles' proof of Fermat's last theorem, which has a short section mentioning how Wiles was able to defend himself from a zombified Ken Ribet using the Tate module and a meat cleaver.
This is just one of a series of new editions of classic mathematical books that have been updated for the 21st century. I am really looking forward to the updated version of Constance's Reid's book, entitled David Hilbert: Vampire Slayer.

I should like to see someone write the book Pride and Prejudice and the Prime Number Theorem, wherein Elizabeth Bennet is wooed by Mr. Darcy while she also works on a proof of the Riemann hypothesis. It could begin: "It is a truth universally acknowledged, that the number of primes less than or equal to x grows asymptotically like x/log x."

Here's one of my favorite quotes. (I think this one's real. I found it in an MAA newsletter.)
From "The Handbook of Hymen," by O. Henry
"Let us sit on this log at the roadside," says I, "and forget the inhumanity and ribaldry of the poets. It is in the glorious columns of ascertained facts and legalized measures that beauty is to be found. In this very log we sit upon, Mrs. Sampson," says I, "is statistics more wonderful than any poem. The rings show it was sixty years old. At the depth of two thousand feet it would become coal in three thousand years. The deepest coal mine in the world is at Killingworth, near Newcastle. A box four feet long, three feet wide, and two feet eight inches deep will hold one ton of coal. If an artery is cut, compress it above the wound. A man's leg contains thirty bones. The Tower of London was burned in 1841."
"Go on, Mr. Pratt," says Mrs. Sampson. "Them ideas is so original and soothing. I think statistics are just as lovely as they can be." - 8:32 AM, April 02, 2010
Who knew that philosophical zombies had something to do with number theory?

At the EENA meeting on 5/5/14, Armory Subcommittee representatives learned that Verizon is still applying to the City of Boise to build what they originally described as a 'stealth' tower, along with a 12ft by 26ft pre-fab Base Transmitter Station near the Historic Boise Armory on Reserve Street.
The public was previously invited to discuss details Thursday, June 13th from 6 to 7pm in the lot between the Fire Station and the Armory on Reserve Street in Boise. See the 2013 notice below (provided by Technology Associates via EENA) for more information. See also the armory development agreement governing use of the property.
Several neighbors and subcommittee members met with Doug Kofford, the TAEC / Consultant for Verizon last year. Diane Ronayne, Gary Richardson, Laura Shealy, Tony Tenne, Noel and Lucy Weber, and Erik Kingston turned out on 6/13 to learn about plans for the 80-foot tower, concrete bunker and the 50′ x 60′ concertina-wire and chain-link fenced enclosure to be located between the Armory and Fire Station #1 near Logan Avenue. We learned at the time that the top of the tower will have a three-sided array that is at least 12′ on a side and looks something like this:
Despite the term 'stealth' originally used to describe structure, it will be significant in mass and height for the neighborhood; double the height of the Armory and approximately 15′ to 20′ above the trees along Logan Ave. We're not sure if the lease payment from a tower would be offset by the potential negative impact on public (and potential tenant/patron) perception and property values. Towers like this can lead to the 'industrialization' of a property or neighborhood, driving away some valuable activity and traffic.
Neighbors were interested in the potential to integrate a public art component, but learned about the restrictions inherent in cell towers. Access to the tower for servicing, reducing the chance for birds or other wildlife to damage equipment or otherwise interfere with transmission or reception are all considerations.

Football and volleyball season is in full swing so we have found ourselves on the road cheering on our players most nights. Keegan and Kal are playing football and Addisyn is playing volleyball.
Worked hard having a garage sale with a friend to raise money for the Pass It Forward Adoption Fund. Unfortunately, the weather didn't cooperate with us and we still have a huge garage full of things to sell. I did make $157.00 though and my sweet friend Brandy offered to let me have it at her house again next week. So, I'll try again next week.
Mr. Kaden (age 2 yr. 11 months) also seems to be getting rather bored being the only one home with me. I've been trying to come up with things to keep him busy between doing adoption paperwork and attacking the mounds of laundry. We have been concentrating on learning the color RED for now. For some reason he is having a really hard time learning his colors. Any suggestions? We have marble painted with red, played with red cars in rice, made red play dough and played with red legos.
Today is day 12 of beans and rice. Of course we are getting kind of tired of them- yet at the same time I am thankful for the simplicity they have allowed- at least in the meal time preparations at our house. We've had a few complainers (admitting here I am one of them)- which has been a great opportunity to sit down, talk, and reflect on how truly blessed we are. I think it's good to do that- and to have this daily reminder. Plus, what we are saving on our grocery bill has been amazing!
I've had a few questions bout how we are cooking our beans and rice. I have found that my kids like the pinto beans best. I soak them over night, then put them in the crock pot with some onion, garlic, and creole seasoning and cook on low all day- then I throw them in the blender. For the rice we have either brown or just white rice. Typically we either put soy sauce on them or else sometimes I throw in some cilantro and lime juice. I am trying to keep them simple with not a lot of ingredients to save on cost. (which is the whole point for us).
Still tackling the adoption paperwork- collecting documents and comparing agencies- time frames and fee's. Trying to be a good steward with the blessings God has given us. We cannot wait to see who God chooses for our family next. :0)

Alberto Contador Signs with Team SunGard-Saxo Bank
At a press conference in Copenhagen taking place earlier today it was announced - and reported first by Roadcycling.com - that three time Tour de France Champion Alberto Contador has signed with Riis Cycling and Team Sungard-Saxo Bank for 2011 and beyond.
"Alberto is a world class rider and it's with great pride that I can welcome him onboard the team for the next two years. With three Tour de France victories on his resume and a position as number one on the world rankings, he is sure to stay at the very top for several years to come. Alberto will get a solid, strong and loyal team around him to support him in all terrains and I'm sure that this will be a fruitful alliance." Team Saxo Bank-Sungard and Riis Cycling owner Bjarne Riis said at the press conference.
Riis added "I am looking forward to the new challenge of working and cooperating with Alberto Contador. I am looking forward to polishing him, thereby making him an even more beautiful and sparkling diamond. I believe that we have yet to see his full potential and that he will sparkle even more during his time as part of Team SunGard-Saxo Bank than he has done while riding for Team Astana."
Alberto Contador's great ambition is to win all three major tours in the same year. The Giro d'Italia, the Tour de France and the Vuelta a Espana. "I will support Contador in making this dream come true," Riis said in Copenhagen. However, Riis believes that 2011 will be too soon for Contador to make an attempt at conquering the pro road cycling Tour triple.
Riis said that negotiations with Contador have taken place during recent months, indicating that Riis has also negotiated with Contador during the 2010 Tour de France.
Alberto Contador has signed a two-year contract with the team. However, Contador did not attend the press conference. According to Riis, Contador had been sighted in Copenhagen Airport trying to catch a cab that would take him to Hotel Skt. Petri in time for the press conference.
"I'm very happy and excited about signing a two year contract with Riis Cycling. With the unique philosophy and team spirit the team offers I'm ensured solid support from the sponsors, administration and staff of riders that I'm looking forward to becoming a part of myself. Historically, Riis Cycling has always been successful and together, we will have the ability to play a very important role in the world of cycling in the years to come," Contador said in a statement.

This is a history of the world told in hilarious bloopers collected by teachers throughout the United States.
These bloopers go from eighth grade all the way through college level.
Learn how Louis Pasteur discovered a cure for rabbis, Charles Darwin wrote the Organ of the Species and Madman Curie discovered radio.
Ancient Egypt was inhabited by mummies, and they all wrote in hydraulics. They lived in the Sarah Dessert and traveled by Camelot. The climate of the Sarah is such that the inhabitants have to live elsewhere, so certain areas of the dessert are cultivated by irritation. Early Egyptian women often wore a garment called a calasiris. It was a sheer dress which started beneath the breasts which hung to the floor.
The pyramids are a range of mountains between France and Spain. The Egyptians built the pyramids in the shape of a huge triangular cube.
The Bible is full of interesting caricatures. In the first book of the Bible, Guinessis, Adam and Eve were created from an apple tree. One of their children, Cain, asked, "Am I my brother's son?"
God asked Abraham to sacrifice Isaac on Mount Montezuma. Jacob, son of Isaac, stole his brother's birthmark. Jacob was a patriarch who brought up his 12 sons to be partriarchs, but they did not take to it. One of Jacob's sons, Joseph, gave refuse to the Israelites.
Moses led the Hebrew slaves to the Red Sea, where they made unleavened bread, which is bread made without any ingredients. Afterwards, Moses went up on Mount Cyanide to get the ten commandments. He died before he ever reached Canada.
David was a Hebrew king skilled at playing the liar. He fought with the Finkelsteins, a race of people who lived in Biblical times. Solomon, one of David's sons, had three hundred wives and seven hundred porcupines.
Later came Job, who had one trouble after another. Eventually, he lost all his cattle and all his children and had to go live alone with his wife in the desert.
The Greeks were a highly sculptured people, and without them we wouldn't have history. The Greeks also had myths. A myth is a female moth.
One myth says that the mother of Achilles dipped him in the River Stynx until be became intollerable. Achilles appears in The Iliad, by Homer. Homer also wrote The Oddity, in which Penelope was the last hardship that Ulysses endured on his journey. Actually, Homer was not written by Homer but by another man of that name.
Socrates was a famous Greek teacher who went around giving people advice. They killed him. Socrates died from an overdose of wedlock. After his death, his career suffered a dramatic decline.
In the Olympic Games, Greeks ran races, jumped, hurled the biscuits, and threw the java. The reward to the victor was a coral wreath.
Eventually, the Romans conquered the Greeks. History calls people Romans because they never stayed in one place for very long.
Julius Caesar extinguished himself on the battlefields of Gaul. The Ides of March murdered him because they thought he was going to be made king. Dying, he gasped out: "Tee hee, Brutus." Nero was a cruel tyranny who would torture his poor subjects by playing the fiddle to them.
Rome came to have too many luxuries and baths. At Roman banquets, the guests wore garlics in their hair. They took two baths in two days, and that's the cause of the fall of Rome. Rome was invaded by ballbearings, and is full of fallen arches today.
Then came the Middle Ages, when everyone was middle aged. King Alfred conquered the Dames. King Arthur lived in the Age of Shivery with brave knights and prancing horses and beautiful women. King Harold mustarded his troops before the Battle of Hastings. Joan of Arc was burnt to a steak and was cannonized by Bernard Shaw. And victims of the blue-bonnet plague grew boobs on their necks. Finally, Magna Carta provided that no free man should be hanged twice for the same offense.
In midevil times most people were alliterate. The greatest writer of the futile times was Chaucer, who wrote many poems and verses and also wrote literature. During this time, people put on morality plays about ghosts, goblins, virgins, and other mythical creatures. Another story was about William Tell, who shot an arrow through an apple while standing on his son's head.
The Renaissance was an age in which more individuals felt the value of their human being. Martin Luther was nailed to the church door at Wittenberg for selling papal indulgences. He died a horrible death, being excommunicated by a bull. It was the painter Donatello's interest in the female nude that made him the father of the Renaissance.
The government of England was a limited mockery. From the womb of Henry VIII Protestantism was born. He found walking difficult because he had an abbess on his knee.
Queen Elizabeth was the "Virgin Queen." As a queen she was a success. When Elizabeth exposed herself before her troops, they all shouted "hurrah." Then her navy went out and defeated the Spanish Armadillo.
It was an age of great inventions and discoveries. Gutenberg invented removable type and the Bible. Another important invention was the circulation of blood. Sir Walter Raleigh is a historical figure because he invented cigarettes and started smoking. And Sir Francis Drake circumcised the world with a 100-foot clipper.
The greatest writer of the Renaissance was William Shakespeare. Shakespeare was born in the year 1564, supposedly on his birthday. He never made much money and is famous only because of his plays. He wrote tragedies, comedies, and hysterectomies, all in Islamic pentameter.
In one of Shakespeare's famous plays, Hamlet rations out of his situation by relieving himself in a long soliloquy. His mind is filled with the filth of incestuous sheets which he pours over everytime he sees his mother. In another play, Lady Macbeth tries to convince Macbeth to kill the King by attacking his manhood. The clown in As You Like Itis named Touchdown, and Romeo and Juliet are an example of a heroic couplet. Romeo's last wish was to be laid by Juliet.
Writing at the same time as Shakespeare was Miguel Cervantes. He wrote Donkey Hote. The next great author was John Milton. Milton wrote Paradise Lost. Then his wife died and he wrote Paradise Regained.
During the Renaissance America began. Christopher Columbus was a great navigator who discovered America while cursing about the Atlantic. His ships were called the Nina, the Pinta, and the Santa Fe.
Later, the Pilgrims crossed the ocean, and this was called Pilgrim's Progress. The winter of 1620 was a hard one for the settlers. Many people died and many babies were born. Captain John Smith was responsible for all this.
One of the causes of the Revolutionary War was the English put tacks in their tea. Also, the colonists would send their parcels through the post without stamps. During the War, the Red Coats and Paul Revere was throwing balls over stone walls. The dogs were barking and the peacocks crowing. Finally, the colonists won the War and no longer had to pay for taxis.
Delegates from the original 13 states formed the Contented Congress. Thomas Jefferson, A Virgin, and Benjamin Franklin were two singers of the Declaration of Independence. Franklin invented electricity by rubbing two cats backwards and declared, "A horse divided against itself cannot stand." Franklin died in 1790 and is still dead.
George Washington married Martha Curtis and in due time became the Father of Our Country. His farewell address was Mount Vernon.
Soon the Constitution of the United States was adopted to secure domestic hostility. Under the Constitution, the people enjoyed the right to keep bare arms.
Abraham Lincoln became America's greatest Precedent. Lincoln's mother died in infancy, and he was born in a log cabin which he built with his own hands. Lincoln said, "In onion there is strength."
Abraham Lincoln wrote the Gettysburg Address while traveling from Washington to Gettysburg on the back of an envelope. He also freed the slaves by signing the Emasculation Proclamation.
On the night of April 14, 1865, Lincoln went to the theater and got shot in his seat by one of the actors in a moving picture show. The believed assinator was John Wilkes Booth, a supposingly insane actor. This ruined Booth's career.
Meanwhile in Europe, the enlightenment was a reasonable time. Voltaire invented electricity and also wrote a book called Candy. Gravity was invented by Isaac Walton. It is chiefly noticeable in the autumn, when the apples are falling off the trees.
Johann Bach wrote a great many musical compositions and had a large number of children. In between, he practiced on an old spinster which he kept up in his attic. Bach died from 1750 to the present.
Bach was the most famous composer in the world, and so was Handel. Handel was half German, half Italian, and half English. He was very large.
Beethoven wrote music even though he was deaf. He was so deaf he wrote loud music. He took long walks in the forest even when everyone was calling for him. Beethoven expired in 1827 and later died for this.
France was in a very serious state. The French Revolution was accomplished before it happened and catapulted into Napoleon. During the Napoleonic Wars, the crowned heads of Europe were trembling in their shoes. Then the Spanish gorillas came down from the hills and nipped at Napoleon's flanks. Napoleon wanted an heir to inherit his power, but since Josephine was a baroness, she couldn't have any children.
The sun never set on the British Empire because the British Empire is in the East and the sun sets in the West. Queen Victoria was the longest queen. She sat on a thorn for 63 years. She was a moral woman who practiced virtue. Her death was the final event which ended her reign.
The nineteenth century was a time of a great many thoughts and inventions. People stopped reproducing by hand and started reproducing by machine. The invention of the steamboat caused a network of rivers to spring up. Cyrus McCormick invented the McCormick raper, which did the work of a hundred men. Louis Pasteur discovered a cure for rabbis. Charles Darwin was a naturalist who wrote the Organ of the Species. Madman Curie discovered radio. And Karl Marx became one of the Marx brothers.
The First World War, caused by the assignation of the Arch-Duck by an anahist, ushered in a new error in the anals of human history.

How tech is taking over in Asia Pacific's cities
With the exponential growth of smart phone adoption, a flourishing start-up scene and booming ecommerce, the tech sector in Asia Pacific is expanding fast.
Tech companies are becoming a key driver in office markets from South Korea to India as new start-ups flock to the region and existing companies expand.
"Tech firms are now among the largest occupier categories in many markets and over the near-term we expect further growth in tech sector demand," says Christopher Clausen, Associate Director of Research, JLL Asia Pacific. "And they are increasingly looking for high-quality office space to attract talent."
Cities in Asia Pacific are well aware of the opportunities if they can meet the rising levels of demand and are taking steps to woo tech occupiers through supportive government policies and the creation of large scale tech hubs.
In Hong Kong, for example, there are tech-focused government policies along with bodies such as the Innovation and Technology Bureau that aim to develop the Special Administrative Region into a knowledge-based economy. Additionally, projects like Lok Ma Chau Loop, a high-tech science park which is under development on the border between Hong Kong and Shenzhen could provide its fledgling start-up scene with an extra boost.
Meanwhile, other cities like New Delhi are providing entrepreneurs with easy access to incubator and accelerator programmes while the decentralization of the office market in Beijing in emerging areas such as Tongzhou gather pace are giving start-ups a chance to occupy high-quality spaces.
Yet not all cities are benefiting from the tech boom in the same way. "Tech demand for office space will likely be uneven across the region. Some Asia Pacific markets are already facing a talent shortage while others lag the region in terms of language and technical skills," says Clausen. "And even in tech savvy markets not all landlords will benefit as tech occupiers tend to cluster in specific areas and have specific building requirements."
Watch the video above to find out which cities in Asia Pacific are coming out on top in the tech sector boom.

The Karachi Blast – Analysis
By B. Raman
Pakistani intelligence and investigating agencies are yet to make a break-through in their investigation of a major terrorist attack on the headquarters of the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) of the Sindh Police in Karachi on November 11, 2010. Eighteen persons, including five members of the para-military Frontier Corps (FC), are reported to have been killed in the attack and nearly 150 others injured. The CID offices were guarded by an FC detachment consisting mainly of Pashtun recruits from the Orakzai Agency of the Federally-Administered Tribal Areas (FATA).
The terrorists used a dual modus operandi — an initial commando-style attack by a group of fidayeen (suicidal) terrorists with hand-held weapons followed by a suicide attack with a truck filled with a large quantity of explosives. The initial exchange of fire was obviously to enable some of the terrorists to enter the building and free some terrorist suspects from the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and its affiliate the Lashkar-e-Jhangvi (LEJ) who had recently been arrested and detained inside the CID headquarters. The information available so far indicates that the raiding terrorists did not find the arrested suspects inside the building. They had been taken to a court earlier that day and had not been brought back by the time the terrorists attacked. The terrorists were apparently not aware that the arrested suspects were not inside. After failing to find them, they blew up the buildings with a huge truck bomb.
The TTP has claimed responsibility for the attack. Ever since the failed attempt to assassinate Benazir Bhutto in Karachi in October,2007, on her return from political exile, the TTP has demonstrated an enduring presence in Karachi and the capability to plan and carry out sporadic terrorist strikes without its plans and their execution being detected and thwarted by the local police. It is not clear till now whether the cadres of the TTP and LEJ operating in Karachi are local recruits from the large Pashtun community in Karachi or are from the FATA and the Khyber Pakhtoonkwa (KP) province. The LEJ has been having for many years sleeper cells of Punjabi recruits in Karachi who have been killing Shia professionals such as doctors and lawyers. A TTP presence is a phenomenon noticed since October 2007.
The Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) of Altaf Hussain, which is a Mohajir (refugees from India) organisation, has been alleging repeatedly that many trained cadres of the TTP have shifted to Karachi from the Swat Valley of the KP province and the FATA and that there is a sinister attempt to Talibanise the Pashtun community of Karachi, which till now has been largely supporting the secular Awami National Party, which is in power at the head of a calition in the KP province and which is a member of the ruling coalition in Islamabad headed by Prime Minister Yousef Raza Gilani. The MQM, which is in power in the Sindh province in a coalition with President Asis Ali Zardari's Pakistan People's Party, controls the Police Department and hence the CID. Unlike the CID in other provinces, which avoid action against the TTP and its affiliates due to fear of reprisals by the TTP, the CID of the Sindh Police has been quite active in its attempts to detect and neutralise the cells of the TTP and the LEJ.
The attack on the CID headquarters on November 11 seems to have had two objectives—firstly, to free the arrested suspects who the TTP believed were being detained there and, secondly, to intimidate the local CID into slowing down its drive against the TTP and the LEJ in Karachi. The first objective seems to have failed. It remains to be seen what impact the raid has on the morale of the CID, most of whose senior officers seem to have escaped death in the raid.
