Today is the second day of the Alfresco DevCon 2018 and therefore yes, it is already over, unfortunately. In this blog, I will be continuing my previous one with sessions I attended on the afternoon of the day-1 as well as day-2. There were too many interesting sessions and I don't really have the time to talk about all of them… But if you are interested, all the sessions were recorded (as always) so wait a little bit and check out the DevCon website, the Alfresco Community or the Alfresco Youtube channel and I'm sure you will find all the recordings as soon as they are available.
So on the afternoon of the day-1, I started with a presentation of Jeff Potts, you all know him, and he was talking about how to move in (upload) and out (download) of Alfresco some gigantic files (several gigabytes). He basically presented a use case where the users had to manage big files and put them all in Alfresco with the less headache possible. On the paper, Alfresco can handle any file no matter the size because the only limit is what the File System of the Alfresco Server supports. However, when you start working with 10 or 20 GB files, you can sometimes have issues like exceptions, timeouts, network outage, aso… It might not be frequent but it can happen for a variety of reasons (not always linked to Alfresco). The use case here was to simplify the import into Alfresco and make it faster. Jeff tested a lot of possible solutions like using the Desktop Sync, CMIS, FTP, the resumable upload share add-on, aso…
In the end, a pure simple (1 stream) upload/download will always be limited by the network. So he tried to work on improving this part and used the Resilio Sync software (formerly BitTorrent Sync). This tool can be used to stream a file to the Alfresco Server, BitTorrent style (P2P). But the main problem of this solution is that P2P is only as good as the number of users having this specific file available on their workstation… Depending on the use case, it might increase the performance but it wasn't ideal.
In the end, Jeff came across the protocol "GridFTP". This is an extension of the FTP for grid computing whose purpose is to make the file transfer more reliable and faster using multiple simultaneous TCP streams. There are several implementations of the GridFTP like the Globus Toolkit. Basically, the solution in this case was to use Globus to transfer the big files from the user's workstation to a dedicated File System which is mounted on the Alfresco Server. Then using the Alfresco Bulk FileSystem Import Tool (BFSIT), it is really fast to import documents into Alfresco, as soon as they are on the File System of the Alfresco Server. For the download, it is just the opposite (using the BFSET)…
For files smaller than 512Mb, this solution is probably slower than the default Alfresco upload/download actions but for bigger files (or group of files), then it becomes very interesting. Jeff did some tests and basically for one or several files with a total size of 3 or 4GB, then the transfer using Globus and then the import into Alfresco was 50 to 60% faster than the Alfresco default upload/download.
Later, Jose Portillo shared Solr Sharding Best Practices. Sharding is the action of splitting your indexes into Shards (part of an index) to increase the searches and indexing (horizontal scaling). The Shards can be stored on a single Solr Server or they can be dispatched on several. Doing this basically increase the search speed because the search is executed on all Shards. For the indexing of a single node, there is no big difference but for a full reindex, it does increase a lot the performance because you do index several nodes at the same time on each Shards…
A single Shard can work well (according to the Alfresco Benchmark) with up to 50M documents. Therefore, using Shards is mainly for big repositories but it doesn't mean that there are no use cases where it would be interesting for smaller repositories, there are! If you want to increase your search/index performance, then start creating Shards much earlier.
For the Solr Sharding, there are two registration options:
- Manual Sharding => You need to manually configure the IPs/Host where the Shards are located in the Alfresco properties files
- Dynamic Sharding => Easier to setup and Alfresco automatically provide information regarding the Shards on the Admin interface for easy management
There are several methods of Shardings which are summarized here:
- MOD_ACL_ID (ACL v1) => Sharding based on ACL. If all documents have the same ACL (same site for example), then they will all be on the same Shard, which might not be very useful…
- ACL_ID (ACL v2) => Same as v1 except that it uses the murmur hash of the ACL ID and not its modulus
- DB_ID (DB ID) => Default in Solr6. Nodes are evenly distributed on the Shards based on their DB ID
- DB_ID_RANGE (DB ID Range) => You can define the DB ID range for which nodes will go to which Shard (E.g.: 1 to 10M => Shard-0 / 10M to 20M => Shard-1 / aso…)
- DATE (Date and Time) => Assign date for each Shards based on the month. It is possible to group some months together and assign a group per Shard
- PROPERTY (Metadata) => The value of some property is hashed and this hash is used for the assignment to a Shard so all nodes with the same value are in the same Shard
- EXPLICIT_ID (Explicit) => This is an all-new method that isn't yet on the documentation… It is apparently working similarly to the Metadata one but it's not hashing the value of the property but using it directly/explicitly to know which shard should be used to index this document. If the property is missing or invalid, it should apparently fall back to the DB_ID method
Unfortunately, the Solr Sharding has only been available starting with Alfresco Content Services 5.1 (Solr 4) and only using the ACL v1 method. New methods were then added using the Alfresco Search Services (Solr 6). The availability of methods VS Alfresco/Solr versions has been summarized in Jose's presentation:
Jose also shared a comparison matrix of the different methods to choose the right one for each use case:
Some other best practices regarding the Solr Sharding:
- Replicate the Shards to increased response time and it also provides High Availability so… No reasons not to!
- Backup the Shards using the provided Web Service so Alfresco can do it for you for one or several Shards
- Use DB_ID_RANGE if you want to be able to add Shards without having to perform a full reindex, this is the only way
- If you need another method than DB_ID_RANGE, then plan carefully the number of Shards to be created. You might want to overshard to take into account the future growth
- Keep in mind that each Shard will pull the changes from Alfresco every 15s and it all goes to the DB… It might create some load there and therefore be sure that your DB can handle that
- As far as I know, at the moment, the Sharding does not support Solr in SSL. Solr should anyway be protected from external accesses because it is only used by Alfresco internally so this is an ugly point so far but it's not too bad. Sharding is pretty new so it will probably support the SSL at some point in the future
- Tune properly Solr and don't forget the Application Server request header size
- Solr4 => Tomcat => maxHttpHeaderSize=…
- Solr6 => Jetty => solr.jetty.request.header.size=…
The day-2 started with a session from John Newton which presented the impact of emerging technologies on content. As usual, John's presentation had a funny theme incorporated in the slides and this time it was Star Wars.
After that, I attended the Hack-a-thon showcase, presented/introduced by Axel Faust. In the Alfresco world, Hack-a-thons are:
- There since 2012
- Open-minded and all about collaboration. Therefore, the output of any project is open source and available for the community. It's not about money!
- Always the source of great add-ons and ideas
- 2 times per year
- During conferences (day-0)
- Virtual Hack-a-thon (36h 'follow-the-sun' principle)
A few of the 16 teams that participated in the Hack-a-thon presented the result of their Hack-a-thon day and there were really interesting results for ACS, ACS on AWS, APS, aso…
Except that, I also attended all lightning talks on this day-2 as well as presentations on PostgreSQL and Solr HA/Backup solutions and best practices. The presentations about PostgreSQL and Solr were interesting especially for newcomers because it really explained what should be done to have a highly available and resilient Alfresco environment.
There were too many lightning talk to mention them all but as always, there were some quite interesting and there I just need to mention the talk about the ContentCraft plugin (from Roy Wetherall). There cannot be an Alfresco event (be it a Virtual Hack-a-thon, BeeCon or DevCon now) without an Alfresco integration into Minecraft. Every year, Roy keeps adding new stuff into his plugin… I remember years ago, Roy was already able to create a building in Minecraft where the height represented the number of folders stored in Alfresco and the depth was the number of documents inside, if my memory is correct (this changed now, it represents the number of sub-folders). This year, Roy presented the new version and it's even more incredible! Now if you are in front of one of the building's door, you can see the name and creator of the folder in a 'Minecraft sign'. Then you can walk in the building and there is a corridor. On both sides, there are rooms which represent the sub-folders. Again, there are 'Minecraft signs' there with the name and creator of the sub-folders. Until then, it's just the same thing again so that's cool but it will get even better!
If you walk in a room, you will see 'Minecraft bookshelves' and 'Minecraft chests'. Bookshelves are just there for the decoration but if you open the chests, then you will see, represented by 'Minecraft books', all your Alfresco documents stored on this sub-folder! Then if you open a book, you will see the content of this Alfresco document! And even crazier, if you update the content of the book on Minecraft and save it, the document stored in Alfresco will reflect this change! This is way too funny :D.
It's all done using CMIS so there is nothing magical… Yet it really makes you wonder if there are any limits to what Alfresco can do ;).
If I dare to say: long live Alfresco! And see you around again for the next DevCon.

Compliments… the forgotten aphrodisiac. You know how good it feels to have someone compliment you, and what it does for your personal self esteem and value. So why not do more of it? A simply compliment can change a person's day and increase their self worth; AND - ancillary benefit - with increased self worth and a sense of appreciation from your partner(s), sexual activity often increases. From what we know through sex research, we can then easily say;
Compliments -> ^Self Worth -> ^Attraction to Partner -> ^Libido -> More Sex -> Better Health -> Longer life!
SO, give out those compliments, have more sex, and live longer! Win-win-win. :)

#SundayInfographic - FAKING ORGASMS?!
#SundayInfographic! Have you ever faked an orgasm? Did you know that men fake orgasms too?? While this infographic sticks to the gender dichotomy, it is still a very interesting read.
#JustTheTip Tuesday - "Talk Dirty to Me!"
We are all around sexual beings. Our sex is not located solely in the genitals - as humans we LOVE to hear, smell, taste, touch, and see our sex. One of most often overlooked is talking dirty - both hearing and saying all of the things that are going on in our heads when rockin' the boat… or bed… or kitchen counter. However, so many people feel uncomfortable or say they don't know how to talk dirty. I myself suggest a three-pronged dirty talk approach to figuring it out. Here are some helpful tips to spice up your sexy lingo.
As always, if you have any sex-related, sexuality, or relationship questions - please don't hesitate to send them in. :)

Donations Procedure | Donors List | Relief Activites | NorthEast Helpline |Appeal |
Help Assam Riot Victims
**Update – In wake of fresh violence and continued environment of fear and insecurity in Asom, We have decided to continue our campaign to assist SEVA Bharti's work of helping ALL Indian families
Group of alert and awakened Tweeples has once again joined hands with Ek Aur Prayaas, this time to support and help the victims of Assam riots. It is about time to contribute in the change and participate in helping our country men who r passing through worst ordeals of their life.
The help / monetary assistance is routed to trust worthy Seva Bharti, who with its volunteers at the ground, Asom are helping people rehabilitate people of Asom. We are just attempting to share their huge monetary burden by contributing from our side, for this great initiative.
We will not let 1989 be repeated in 2012
What Happened
In Asom (Assam) state's Kokrajhar district, a bloody riot broke out for more than a week back. 42 people have died, 100s are injured, over 2,00,000 have fled homes to save lives, nearly two dozen trains stopped or attacked, 10s of 1000s of passengers are stranded and 100s of villages have seen burning or vandalizing of homes/buildings. As with any riot, more damage might get uncovered as things become clearer. This is an extremely serious situation and still no signs of things coming under control. Our own countrymen are forced to stay in camps.
Asom as a state is been neglected, coupled with the influx of unhindered illegitimate immigrants, the condition of Bodo's are getting worst then worse. The situation is much more grim and rense, then words can ever explain, Our countrymen are forced to flee their OWN home, from their Own VILLAGE and their OWN country. While we are determined to bring the change in ground condition with help from all of us, who are cross demographies
Present condition and sewa activities:
1) Sewa activities is reaching more than 60,000 victims of riots
2) Victims have been provided with blankets, food, mosquito coils, note books
3) Medicines have been provided for fever, cough and other ailments and to avoid spread of contagious diseases
4) 3 Ambulances and 4 teams of doctors working round the clock to cater to the victims
5) Hindu families affected by the riots want to return home ASAP but are still in fear and are skeptical.
What needs to be Done?
An emergency response to the fast developing crisis is a need of the hour. A group of tweeples along with Ek Aur Prayaas has decided to make change beyond simple outrage. We are supporting Param Foundation , which has initiated crisis management by supporting all peace initiatives. We have initiated resource mobilization with the intent of providing relief to the victims of violence. Param foundation has partnered with seva organization in Assam that is working on relief activities.

We the social media friends along With Ek Aur Prayaas and Param Foundaion, are determined to assist the rehabilitation work under taken by Seva Bharti.
Aug month's Donation Target – Rs5.Lakhs (for Basic dignified living to min. 30 families)
As of today, still need donations for 5 families
Please join hands with generous contribution to help your fellow-Indians in dire need of support
Sewa and rehabilitation planned next Steps:

3) Sewa Bharathi has a target to help 500 families to rebuild homes
4) Provide books and stationary to more than 5000 school going kids
5) Provide kitchen stoves and utensils to the families once they return home

The volunteers of Seva bharti are at the ground assisting the victims in the refugee camps. Least we can contribute in the himalayan task is provide monetary help to the volunteers, just as there is no upper limit to support, there is no lower limit to support.

Summary and Reflections on Gillian Roses
Feminism and Geography:
The Limits of Geographical Knowledge
Claudia V. Camp
I volunteered at our last meeting to provide some background on Gillian Roses book and to consider how it might impact my own work on Ben Sira. It was useful to me to write up chapter-by-chapter summaries, so Im reproducing those here for you all. At the end I make the connections I see to my paper.
Rose argues that women and feminism have been excluded from the discipline of geography because of the particular, masculinist ways in which geographical knowledge is constituted and its relationship to power. Masculinist epistemology is built on a structure of Same and Other; it claims itself as universal and seeks exhaustive knowledge from its stance of detached objectivity. This dominant subject position is not, however, monolithic in geography. Rose argues that there are two different masculinities at work here. Social-science masculinity represses all reference to its Other in order to claim universal knowledge (10-11) while the aesthetic masculinity of humanistic geography admits the existence of its Other in order to establish a profundity of which it alone has the power to speak (11).
She explores feminist strategies of resistance, acknowledging that feminism itself struggles with the need to build an identity for Woman while at the same time admitting the diversity among women, with attention to race, sexuality, and class. This paradox runs through her analysis, leading her to suggest that strategic mobility is actually feminisms greatest strength (13). Yet the poles of the oscillation also need to be dismantled in the search for an emancipatory feminist geography.
Roses social-scientific masculinity is evident in time-geography. As is typical of her argument, she summarizes its main arguments, points out its possible values for feminism, but then also its limitations, embedded in its universalizing flaw.
Time-geography was one variation on structurationism, geographys contribution to the social theoretical question of agency and structure: to what extent do human agents have meaningful causal power and to what extent are they determined by social structures. Time-geography images paths taken by humans as they fulfill their daily tasks, which must be interpreted in terms of the constraints to mobility that individuals encounter as they intersect with particular institutional projects occurring at specific temporal and social locations (22). This understanding of the interpenetration of society, history, and everyday life has been useful to feminists insofar as it focuses on the mundane world of routine that is often seen to characterize womens lives. Studies demonstrated, for example, the constraints of time and space experienced by suburban women relatively isolated from jobs and other resources.
Time geography is not able, however, argues Rose, to account for the specifically feminine kind of subjectivity and sociality that is produced by the routine work of mothering and domesticity (26-27) in the private sphere that these studies highlight. The differences this routine produces are omitted: the emotional, the passionate, the disruptive, the feelings of relations with others (28). Her more critical feminist analysis regards this omission as a repression of the Other which must be recovered in order to mark the Same, that is, to mark time-geographys universal claims as in fact masculinist: disembodied, passionless, individualistic, public. In this theory, both the specificity of space and of the body disappear: it is abstract (ungendered, uncolored, unsexual) bodies that move through transparent, boundless space. This denies the possibility of different spaces being known by other subjects (40).
Humanistic geography is constituted by aesthetic masculinity. HG speaks of place in more holistic terms than time-geographys space. It feminizes space, but does so in its own terms. Place is the idealized Woman, which humanistic geographers still seek authoritatively and exhaustively to know, while at the same time asserting its mysterious unknowability. Home is the exemplar of place, yet real womens actual experiences in the homeoften boring, often oppressiveare ignored. Rose brings white, socialist-feminist critique to bear on this idealization of home.
Rose cites Evelyn Fox Kellers critique of scientific claims to knowledge as grounded in a masculinist social-psychological differentiation of subject and object, which is connected to one of the most important dualisms of Western culture, between (feminine) Nature and (masculine) Culture. Yet Rose argues that geographys masculinism is more complex in that it also involvesespecially in the experience of fieldwork--a contradictory desire for Nature and fear of seduction by it. In critique, Rose discusses one sort of radical feminist critique which simply inverts the masculinist valuation of Culture over Nature, but which leaves the (essentialist, universalistic) dualism in place. She proposes instead a mobile feminism that rather displaces the dualism of Same and Other, one that oscillates, for example, between some sense of a coherent Woman and the diversity of women. What is needed is a formulation of a different kind of knowledge, that draws on different theorizations of different experiences, central to which will be a spatiality that articulates a new relation to power and knowledge (85).
This chapter continues the discussion of the feminization of Nature, looking here at looking itself. Whereas traditional cultural geography had regarded the landscape as simply the scene within the range of the observers vision, recent critique interprets landscape as a visual ideology, a gaze which itself helps to make sense of a particular relationship between society and land (87). This gaze is both gendered and contradictory: its attempts at objectivity disembody itself yet it is also marked by desire and fear. Landscape as a way of seeing is bound to class relations; e.g., 18th and 19th century merchants commissioned paintings of their holdings, sometimes with them in it. Yet the mistress appears also a part of the holding of the master. Peasant women were depicted in the landscape so as to stress their natural reproductivity. Nude women were represented as a kind of landscape. Thus, the sensual topography of land and skin is mapped by a gaze which is eroticized as masculine and heterosexual (97).
Cultural geography fails to address its own pleasure in the landscape, representing it as a text to be (authoritatively) read. Rose takes up the experience of visual pleasure in a Lacanian analysis, suggesting that masculine pleasure in the landscape comes partly from its seductively sexual vision of narcissistic reunion with the phallic mother (105). Yet the gaze also produces fear of this seduction which produces the voyeuristic gaze that creates a gap between the seer and the seen. The intersections of voyeurism and narcissism, then, structure geographys gaze at the landscape (108), in an erotics of knowledge (109).
Feminist critique might come from such sources as a study on various kinds of women whose creative work has shown their search for harmony with the environment in the US Southwest; from the diaries of white middle-class pioneer women; from womens gardens; from re-consideration of the gaze that re-presents the land when the gazer is a woman, often stressing relationships over mastery. But there is no singular feminine way of seeing landscape.
This chapter focuses on the work of feminist geographers who are addressing social and economic themes, in order to explore the possibility of a different kind of space beyond the exclusions of social-scientific masculinist space, pointing the feminist geographys epistemological challenges to masculinist closure (113). Feminist and marxist geographers both argue that unequal social relations are both expressed and constituted through spatial differentiation (113), in contrast to time-geographys singular space. But marxism subordinates gender to economic considerations, and feminists are suspicious of its abstractions.
Feminist geographers argue for the interrelationship of production and reproductionand thus private domesticity and public labora perspective which would include womens sphere into all accounts of economic and social life. Yet Rose critiques feminist geography as remaining caught in an oscillation that reproduces hegemonic geographys exclusions, wherein analysis of reproduction assumes a similarity in all women (Woman) while analysis of production incorporates differences among women. Black feminists in particular have criticized white feminists assumption of the oppressiveness of the domestic sphere. Further, since . . . the concept of reproduction assumes womens role as reproducers, its use also affirms that role. Thus, in feminist geography the analytical concept of reproduction has been interpreted through the lens of bourgeois cultural values (126). In contrast, feminist studies of production have been acutely concerned with specificities of difference, though only regarding class and gender. Rose also critiques these studies for understanding the female work of the home, especially reproduction, so much in public terms (that is, as work), that what is associated with the private becomes marginalized. Especially sexuality and emotion, which do not appear in feminist geography.
Thus, the public/private distinction has its analytical limits and feminist geography needs to imagine new kind of space, as in, e.g., a study of womens informal economy or their work in local politics. These create a surplus to the geographical language of production and reproduction that recognizes an implicit belief in women as different from men without invoking an essential Woman, through emphasizing the diversity among women. This gap produces a sense of space itself as excessive, and knowledge of it as above all political (136).
The chapter concentrates on the spatial imagination of what Teresa de Lauretis has called the the subject of feminism. This subject of feminism is a particular sense of identity which tries to avoid the exclusions of the master subject, and I suggest that it therefore imagines spaces which are not structured through masculine claims to exhaustiveness (137-38).
Why feminists are interested in space: Feminism, I think, through it awareness of the politics of the everyday, has always had a very keen awareness of the intersection of space and powerand knowledge. As de Lauretis says, there is the epistemological priority which feminism has located in the personal, the subjective, the body, the symptomatic, the quotidian, as the very site of material inscription of the ideological (142).
The subject of feminism, then, depends on a paradoxical geography in order to acknowledge both the power of hegemonic discourse and to insist on the possibility of resistance. This geography describes that subjectivity as that of both prisoner and exile; it allows the subject of feminism to occupy both the centre and the margin, the inside and the outside. It is a geography structured by the dynamic tension between such poles, and it is also a multidimensional geography structured by the simultaneous contradictory diversity of social relations. It is a geography which is as multiple and contradictory and different as the subjectivity imagining it. I have already suggested how some of the founding antimonies of Western geographical thought are negated by this feminist subjectivity: its embodiment which overcomes the distinction between mind and body; its refusal to distinguish between real and metaphorical space; its refusal to separate experience and emotion from the interpretation of places. All these threaten the polarities which structure the dominant geographical imagination. They fragment the dead weight of masculinist space and rupture its exclusions. Above all, they allow for the possibility of a different king of space through which difference is tolerated rather than erased (155).
Paradoxical space is not, however, inherently emancipatory; it remains only a temporary strategy in the context of resistance to hegemonic transparent space.
What would have been different if Id begun my Ben Sira paper with Rose rather than Soja, or what does Rose add or change now that its finished? One irony is that if Id begun with Rose Id have saved myself the never fully resolved confusion about conceptually distinguishing First from Second from Thirdspace. On the other hand, it was in the very effort to make sense of those categories as they related to my text that the paper emerged.
While Rose and Soja end up in not dissimilar placesparadoxical space and Thirdspacetheir arguing partners are different. Soja is trying to establish the importance of spatiality in the mix of historicality and sociality, while politicizing the notion of space itself. Rose is emphasizing the gender of geography against the disciplinary tendency to suppress it while trying to address a major issue in feminist theory regarding Woman vs. women. Sojas work lends itself relatively easily to a conversation with biblical studies, since the addition of spatiality to our on-going discussions about biblical history and society makes a lot of obvious sense. Feminist criticism is certainly also a major part of our discourse, but since Rose is, in effect, theorizing about theory within feminist geography, one has to work a bit harder to get a conversation started. On the other hand, Roses work offers a caution against a too easy appropriation of Soja: her emphasis on the importance of local knowledge in the project of geography, and the strategic rather than permanent value of any theoretical formulation, might make us suspicious about the universalizing generalities of Sojas spatial trialectic.
While Sojas focus on spatiality relative to historicality and sociality blurs differences between the analysis of ancient and contemporary contexts, facilitating conversation, Roses focus on the feminist and the economic aspects of geography sharpens the difference. It is precisely the changes in production and reproduction in modern techno-industrial capitalism that make application of her theoretical concerns to the ancient world less transparent. Once again, however, there are things that can be learned by thinking through differences.
(1) One of Carol Meyers enduring contributions to the social-historical study of women in ancient society was the observation that the public-private distinction that has been taken to characterize the modern world was far less relevant then. The post-modern turn that Rose has to work so hard to give marxist and socialist-feminist geographytheorizing an actual integration in womens lives of production and reproduction, and thus of private and publicis the simple reality of pre-modern life. In some respects, then, scholarship on biblical women was quicker to recognize the Foucauldian diffusion of power that such integrated spatiality allows for. The post-modern integration, of course, does not take the same forms as the pre-modern. In Ben Sira, one of the major literary-spatial dynamics involves a battle of houses: the house of the priest (or God), the house of (female) Wisdom, the house of the scribe, the house of the (male) citizen. Some of these houses are more private, some more public. Yet the domestic metaphor rules, and the gender dynamics are in each case contested and complex. Although the present version of my paper gives some consideration to the dynamics of the house, this could be further developed.
(2) One of the constant battles post-modernism wages is against the dualisms that characterize much modernist (and prior) thought, among others, the distinction between mind and body which typically corresponds to and reinforces a hierarchical male-female dualism This distinction is as old as the Greeks, but also definitive of modernism. Rose follows much feminist theory in seeking both to re-value the body and embodiment (as integrated with rather than opposed to the mind) and to theorize the body as a site of cultural construction. Ancient Jewish culture generally stands apart from the critique of mind-body dualism, operating as it does with a more unified anthropology. In spite of this, its male-female dualism is radical. Indeed, cultural identity is deeply embedded in the gendered body, proving that overcoming mind-body does not solve all the problems? The gendered body seems to be in fact a particular locus of shame and fear in Ben Sira. Roses observations about the ways in which (gendered) bodies are (variously) located in spaces, and spaces mapped onto bodies, become useful a useful lens through which to view the politics of his anxieties. Spatiality theory focused on the body thus dovetails with another form of social-scientific analysis Ive elsewhere applied to Ben Siraconsideration of the honor-shame ideology that underlies this textto enrich both the reading of the text and also offer further insight into the social context in which it was produced.
(3) Roses discussion of the relationship of body and spatiality focuses in part on the (capitalist) male gaze that regards, and thus masters, the woman/property in its purview. Here the difference between the object of the gaze in ancient times as opposed to modern is both notable and especially intriguing. The male inclination to equate woman and land, and see both as the soil in which his seed is sown, is ancient and enduring. A writer like Ben Sira, however, counsels adamantly against precisely looking at a woman, obviously deeply afraid of the mastery that his desire, thus evoked, will exercise over him. The tension between desire and fear that feminist critics find suppressed in much modern masculinist thought is virtually transparent in the ancient text. On the other hand, consideration of the gazer and the gazed upon in this work offers another striking insight. For when Ben Sira looks, he sees, and delights in the vision of, Simeon the high priest. The gaze that is located in the Temple is homoerotic, a point that merits further unpacking in spatial (and other) terms.
(4) I have indicated that ancient Jewish culture is generally not marked by a mind-body dualism. Yet the cultural niche to which Ben Sira belongs is marked by a newly important intellectual trait, namely, the textualization of tradition. The production of texts and their authorizing recital and interpretation takes place in spaces. My paper only begins to suggest the possibilities of thinking spatially about textuality: the physical (First) spaces in which these activities occur, the lived space of those participating in them, the representation of space in text, the textualization of space, and all this in relation to gender. As Howard Eilberg-Schwartzs The Savage in Judaism suggests, writing in rabbinic Judaism (and I would argue already in Ben Sira) becomes imbued with gender: words are the new seeds that men sow. As in the classic mind-body dualism, the false consciousness involved here is that space is irrelevant to this all-male (re)production, which will become convinced of its own universalism. The work of Gillian Rose would certainly show that it just aint so.

Werner's Nomenclature of Colours || P Syme
Posted by henry in Publisher: Natural History Museum, Subject: Art History, Subject: Colour on April 18, 2018
A band on the jacket helpfully advises that this is "the book Charles Darwin used to describe colours on his voyage on HMS Beagle". So much, you might say, for that.
This is a facsimile (if you hadn't guessed) of a book first published in 1814. It was invaluable then and, although mainly of historical interest now, contains information that can still be of use to the artist. This version took a previously existing colour naming system and adapted it for practical use by botanists, zoologists, mineralogists and artists.
Why, you might ask, was it necessary? Two hundred years ago, colour printing didn't exist in any useful form. Those full-colour guides we're so used to now are surprisingly recent. Only 30 or so years ago, it wasn't uncommon for painting books to be illustrated with only some dozen colour plates and those would be concentrated together, not run throughout the text. The quality of the colour reproduction in the present volume suggests that the swatches were hand-tinted, so this would have been a small edition, and by no means cheap.
But still, why place so much importance on how colours are described? Well, if you can't reproduce it in print, you need a reliable way of writing about it so that the reader can mix it for themselves, and that requires a standard approach. Enter Mr Werner, ably assisted by Mr Syme.
To see how this works in practice, let's look at Bluish Green. It "is composed of Berlin blue, and a little lemon yellow and greyish white". The accompanying table tells us that it's suitable for a thrush egg, the under disc of wild rose leaves or the mineral beryl. And that's how you get the colours right, even if you haven't got a reliable chart.
Yes, this is mainly of historical interest, but it's a fascinating read and a reminder of how the world got on when everything really was black and white.

Emile Nolde : Colour is Life
Posted by henry in Publisher: National Gallery of Ireland, Subject: Art History, Subject: Emile Nolde on April 18, 2018
Colour is strength. Strength is life.
Only strong harmonies are important.
Emile Nolde wrote this in the final volume of his four-volume autobiography and it serves as a manifesto for his art – indeed it could stand for much of art in general.
Nolde was part of the German Expressionist movement, but lived in the northern part of the country near the border with Denmark, and was in fact a Danish citizen when he died. Much of his imagery reflects the landscapes and, above all, the people that surrounded him.
This survey of his life and work, which is much more than a catalogue of the exhibition currently at the National Gallery of Ireland, stresses that he was, for all that, not merely a regional artist. He was fully up to speed on trends and movements in contemporary art and also a master of both technique and colour. His use of the latter can, in the Expressionist manner, shock, but that's designed to get attention and make the viewer think. It also provides a vibrancy and, in figurative works, a depth of character that is not always possible by other means.
As well as a generous format and some superb reproduction, there are also considered essays on a variety of aspects of Nolde's work that make this, while more of a survey than an in-depth study, a thoroughly worthwhile assessment of the man and his work. It also stands well even when separated from the exhibition.
Note: the edition reviewed is that with the imprint of the National Gallery of Ireland. It is, however, also published by the National Gallery of Scotland and that is the edition linked to below.

Victorian Watercolours from the Art Galley of New South Wales
Posted by henry in Publisher: Art Gallery of New South Wales, Subject: Art History on December 1, 2017
Victorian watercolours are often dismissed as being sentimental works of no great artistic or societal value. While it is true that a great deal of idealisation goes on, this is not something unique to that particular period; brutal naturalism is something that has perhaps really only gained traction relatively recently.
There is not a great deal to be said about this book. The title leaves you in no doubt as to what it is and it's something you'll either pick up with enthusiasm or retreat quickly away from.
However, if you're still listening, you'll want to know that the selection is varied and representative and the works, if you're UK-based, not easy to see in person. The quality of the reproduction is very high indeed and the generous sizing and concise analyses thoroughly welcome.
Quite simply, if Victorian watercolours are your thing, you'll want and love this.

The new sweets keep coming from the local convenience store. Here are two I tried today. The Mickey/Minnie ones are Hokkaido Milk sweets and the strawberry ones are Cubyrop Gummy filled with collagen. I am not even going to try and guess where the word Cubyrop comes from, but the series seems to have a lot of different flavours available.

Yuzu Potato Chips

I bought a pack of Yuzu Potato chips the other day to try something different. Yuzu is found in Japan although originally came from China. The taste is very similar to a mandarin and may even be a derivative of that fruit.
There are many varieties of potato chips to choose from in Japan and the Yuzu variety may not last long in the convenience store where new products tend to change out very quickly.
Convenience Stores becoming Market Research Stores
Convenience stores appear to be becoming a market research store rather than their original purpose of serving the basic foods conveniently. Every time I visit my local convenience store I see new products only to go back in the following week to see them gone.
Japanese Snack Reviews Blog
Back to the Yuzu story, the end result was the Yuzu potato chips were good. I was going to write more about this topic but found a great article at Japanese Snack Reviews which I thought summed up the whole experience.
If you like Yuzu, these chips are for you, although the convenience store may have already filled their spot with the next new product.
I also bought some Chocolate coated Sunflower seeds which I had not seen in Japan before. I don't know a lot about these but they did taste good.

You can't go anywhere in Tokyo at this time of year without running into people buying Valentine Day Chocolates. They are everywhere. The economy might be taking a hit, but the chocolate manufacturers are certainly making the most of this Valentine season. Here are some quick shots of a few offerings to tide you over until the 14th.
Mini Butter Roll Towel ? for Valentines Day
Posted in Culture, Food, Japan, Shibuya, shopping, tagged ギャクチョコ, Chocolate, gifts, Japan, men, towel, valentine, valentine day, whatjapanthinks, women on February 7, 2009| 6 Comments »
It looks like a Chocolate roll and has the name ミニロール バター Mini butter roll taste, but if you look closely you will see it is actually a rolled up towel!
I am a chocolate fan so i would be very disappointed to receive a towel for Valentines Day, but I am sure there are some people who might prefer the towel.
This year many guys are supposedly giving the girls chocolates for Valentines Day in what is becoming known as gyaku choco or reverse chocolate.
Here is my post discussing that.
Here is a very good look at what women are thinking in Japan around this Valentine Day period from WhatJapanThinks.com

"The story centers on two 13-year-old boys who live in a country that has banned chocolate and mandated fruits and vegetables for daily consumption. The boys discover a stash of cocoa and sugar and decide to run a bootleg chocolate factory, in complete defiance of the government run by the oppressive Good for You Party. Their misadventures eventually sparks a revolution in the country. The theatrical version will add 20 minutes of new footage and present the entire project in widescreen format. " – Source: ANN

Valentines Day – Men giving chocolate to ladies ?
Posted in advertising, Food, Japan, Shibuya, tagged Chocolate, commercial, dars, gyaku-choco, ikemen, Morinaga, survey, valentine, valentines day, white day on January 25, 2009| 5 Comments »
In a survey they conducted in January this year covering ages from 10 – 50 years, taking in 400 men and 400 women, they concluded the following:
1. That men think it would be ok to give chocolates to women on valentines day and that if the women threw in a quick "Choco, Hoshii-na!!" (チョコ、欲しいな~)then 90.8% of the men would give them chocolate. I am surprised they didn't ask the men what else they might want to give the women as a follow up question.
2. 98.3% of the women said if they received chocolate from men they would be happy. 66.7% said they would feel the men were paying attention, 44.3% thought it would be great or fashionable (素敵).
3. When asked if they would think of the male giver of chocolate as someone of the opposite sex, i.e. view them as a male, 20% said yes and 57.5% said "probably, depending on the person", which Morinaga use as their headline to say
"close to 80% of women would view men giving them chocolates as romantic."
Statistics don't lie, but Morinaga might be jumping to large conclusions on this one.
Gyaku-Choco (逆チョコ)
The exchange of Chocolate from Men to Women rather then Women to Men is being called Gyaku-Choco (逆チョコ). The survey suggests the name for a guy giving chocolate to a girl should be Chokomen (チョコメン) after the phrase Ikemen (イケメン).
Here are 3 chocolate products that Morinaga have brought out in their Gyaku-Choco series. Note the writing of the product name etc is backwards.
What about White Day?
Back to the survey, here is the best part; while traditionally White Day was established to get the men to buy something in return for the women after they receive their chocolates on Valentines Day, the survey says 70% of the men think they should get something in return if they give chocolates and 90% of the women said they would consider giving something in return. The moral of the survey seems to be that you have to give to get.
For men giving to women, the average cost of chocolate to be given to a true love was surveyed at 1,672 Yen, whilst chocolate given to others was around 600 Yen. For women giving to men the figure was 1,714 Yen versus 542 Yen.

New Meiji Chocolate Product "cacao-kome"
Posted in Food, tagged Chocolate, Meiji, Rice on December 15, 2008| Leave a Comment »
Ok, its not electrical and you cant hook it up to your computer via a USB port, but this is definately a great product just out in Japan. It's a retake of the chocolate biscuit or cookie. Whereas most biscuits are made of wheat which an increasing number if people are finding they have an allergy to, this new Japanese chocolate biscuit is made from rice. The name cacao-kome is a combination of chocolate and rice.
The biscuits or crackers are very very tasty. They can be bought in white and milk chocolate. I found them at the local convenience store but am sure they are available in supermarkets as well. Be warned, there are only about 12 crackers in the pack and they disappear fast!!
Their release date was 9th December 2008. I have tried to find some information in English on other sites but have not been able to find anything in Google.
If you are living in Japan and like your chocolate give it a go. You wont be sorry.
If you read Japanese here is the link to Meiji Chocolate's site talking about this product.

Few weeks ago a friend of mine told me that a new pizzeria opened in Burj Hammoud and that I should definitely try it. La Strada is Italian for the street. Pizza is indeed considered as street food in Italy and a staple in any Italian home. To us its fast food, to the Italians its tradition where less is more and quality ingredients are what make all the difference.
Any person that ever visited Italy knows that real traditional pizza comes served on a thin crust dough, crunchy, not over chewy, and with minimal toppings. The Americans have succeeded in pushing their variation of the pizza and turning something very delicate to the very symbol of junk food. (They did the same with sushi, not junk food yet definitely not Japanese)
La Strada is a small pizzeria in the main road branching from Burj Hammoud's main square. We were greeted with a nice manager/owner at the door with a big smile and seated. The big brick stone oven was being served by a round faced chef and a young sous chef. A nice simple interior, although not traditional Italian and more New York pizzeria it made you feel relaxed and ready to eat.
I tried everything on the menu. Yes, everything. The pizzas were generous in size and relatively cheap in price. The menu was handed to us by the manager and we got lost in the many options they had. The options are basic , as should be, yet they are diverse and would sure meet all tastes. They even have a dessert pizza with chocolate on it.
We ordered the Four Cheese Pizza, Basturma Pizza, Margarita Pizza, Pomodoro Pizza, Mushroom Pizza, Goat Cheese Pizza, Vegetarian Pizza.
The crust was spot on perfect. The toppings did not go over the top and were not non existent, just a perfect balance.
Margherita: Tomato Sauce and Mozzarella Cheese. Perfect balance, simple and straight forward. I only wish they would add a few fresh basal leaves to the top before its served.
Pomodoro: Its basically the same as the Margherita pizza yet they added cherry tomatoes to the top and a sprinkle of dry oregano and topped with fresh arugula. Its very nice and a fresher version of the Margherita pizza.
Mushroom Pizza: Loaded with fresh mushrooms and topped with fresh arugula leaves. One of my favorites.
Four Cheese Pizza: A mix of 4 cheeses topped their tomato sauce. It was very good, however it wasn't clear what the four cheeses were exactly. I would perhaps have one of the cheeses diced into cubes instead of being shredded with the other cheeses and add more of the blue cheese to make the taste more distinctive and texture more diverse.
Vegetarian (Veggie) Pizza: My favorite between them all. Rich with flavors and ingredients which are not ""loaded"" on the crust. Zuccini, eggplants, mushrooms, green peppers, and olives rested on that tomato sauce. The vegetables were thinly sliced and didn't overpower each other nor the sauce. A definite must try.
Basterma Pizza: My second favorite. An Armenian twist on the Italian tradition. The spiciness of the basterma compliments the tomato sauce and its balanced by the fresh arugula. I would suggest that they shred the basterma to make eating the pizza a bit easier since when you bite to the slice of pizza you end up with one bite that pulls the basterma off the crust and you eat the remainder of the slice with no toppings.
Goat Cheese: My least favorite of them all. I couldn't taste the goat cheese on that pizza, so it just seemed like I was eating the Margherita pizza with something odd.
La Strada is here and its here to stay. I really hope they don't change their prices and they don't expand too much the manager was talking about adding pastas and sandwiches. If you they maintain the high quality and they manage to keep the prices down , I'm sure they will bloom and stick around for a long time.
Go try it, and as their slogan says : Keep your family close and your pizza closer.

Hello fellow wonder seekers!
I am back from Oregon and have been very busy with life. I wanted to do one last post about my Oregon trip about my last couple days in Oregon when I went to The Portland Rose Garden and The Oregon Zoo.
If you haven't been to The Portland Rose Garden in the summer you are seriously missing out. This rose garden is the largest public garden in America. I couldn't believe all of the amazing roses and variety of colors! I grew up with a rose garden so they always hold a special place in my heart. When you're here you can also see a good view of the city and Mount Hood.
These were my favorite roses! They are called Whimsy Miniatures. They are small but so fun and surprising. The little pop of colors just bring me joy! But we all know how much I love pinks.
The day before I left my family was working and had school so I decided to go to the zoo. I've never been to a zoo alone but it was actually every enjoyable! I was able to go and see what I wanted and for as long as I wanted. For instance, I could have sat with my favorite otters for hours and nobody could tell me "no" Everyone should go to a zoo alone once in their life! I've never been to The Oregon Zoo but it was beautiful! It's in a great forest area with green trees and plants everywhere. The animal exhibits were pretty great too. Naturally my favorite were the otters, I got lucky because they have both sea and river otters. Surprisingly the Vultures were great to see, they were some of the biggest vultures I ever did see.

Back to Newmarket today but it must have rained really heavily overnight as the field they were parking cars in had become very muddy. It was so bad that they were even offering to ferry the punters from their cars to the gateway in golf buggies even though at times that distance was only 20 feet. I walked around the paddock and found the mud quite bad so I headed over to the carpet that they always lay over the grass but that was just sodden underfoot too. Luckily the rain held off during the actual event and despite the weather we even managed to sit on one of the outside tables at lunchtime.
Now this doesn't happen very often but today went like this
10:15 arrive on site plug in computer
10:25 Full English breakfast followed by a latte made by a proper barista.
11:30 Show
12:30 Lunch – Roast Beef and yorkshires followed by dessert and coffee.
1:30 Leave site to go home!!!
I met a headteacher that I worked with as a Governor when my kids were in infant school. She came to the leaving party of the current headteacher where I'm chair of Governors. I musn't have seen her for about 15 years. She asked about the girls and was quite shocked to find Beth had finished University (she said it made her feel old!!)
Also had conversations with two random strangers – most unlike me!
I grant you it may be Friday night
But did you know this day also numbers thirteen

PHASE 5! The great thing about PHASES is that it's the kind of project that lives in its own in a way... like some kind of plant that grows every month but in an unpredictable way. Releasing a single a month requires to let go of all the control you usual get over the making of an album. And things did go unexpectedly with PHASE 5, as it was supposed to be a collaboration with Anthony Gonzales of M83 but it didn't happen. You can listen to the audio-documentary to find out how Anthony and I met... Anthony only had a few days off in April and he was interested in working with me on a song. Unfortunately, you can't order inspiration online, neither can you make sure to write the best song for an admired collaborator whenever you want to... So unfortunately, Anthony wasn't able to contribute to "NEW FOUND LAND". But we are planning to work together an upcoming Phases single... fingers crossed. Anthony and I really like each other, we've collaborated together before (he sang and played keys on "I Have Sound" - on Going Places, Carpark2 007... I remixed two of his tracks, "Teen Angst" and "Kim and Jessie"... and wrote some string arrangements for a few M83 tracks as well)... so I'm confident there'll be other collaborations in the future.
Throughout April, I worked as a sound designer with a performing arts collective called Système Kangourou. It was a wonderful work experience and my role was to create a hypnotic and ambient soundscape to accompany a performance done in the hall of Place des arts, Montreal's biggest art complex. The drone I did was realy soothing and I though it could very well be turned into a Montag track, which it did! "Harmonie 2" was the work title for the drone. I added some samples to it, as well as a rythm and that was it. Because it was so quickly done, I realized it was probably better to add the word "demo" after the title.

Monaco Vs Manchester City ( UEFA Champions League Round Of 16 2nd Leg) :Match Preview And Predictions
Monaco will have to beat a two goal deficit at home ( Stade Louis II) if they are to qualify for the quarter finals.
The French side fell 5-3 to the English side in the first leg and Monaco boss Leonardo Jardim will have to pick up a good strategy that will help over turn their two goal deficit. worried of Manchester City attack, the Monaco boss said that his team will have to score three goals if they are to qualify.
Leonardo Jardim
"It will be difficult," Jardim said. "One thing is sure, for us to qualify in our current state, we'll need to score three goals. Two will not be enough. We will play with this target."
The Manchester City Boss in his statement made reference to the scoring ability of the French side ( 123 goals in all competitions this season) and concluded that it won't be better to defend Against the French side.
Pep Guardiola
"The best way [to defend] is score goals," Guardiola said.
"When one team scores many goals and you think about just defending, you kill yourself. The idea is to try and attack.
"When one team scores many goals and you think about just defending, you kill yourself. The idea is to try and attack.
"We scored five goals when it's not easy to score against them. What you have to do is go to score goals."
Monaco own a record of qualifying against English teams in European competitions but Manchester City has not lost to any French side in European competitions and both teams have only one clean sheet in this season's Champions League.
Striker Gabriel Jesus (foot) and midfielder Ilkay Gundogan (knee) are the only senior absentees. With Pep having few injury concerns, it will be easier to stage a strong attack against the French side.
Falcao and Aguero both scored twice in their last clash but more will be expected from Falcao than Aguero as he looks more like the intended liberator sue to recent form.
Manchester City are more likely to move ahead due to their goal advantage but the French side will try but will end their campaign here. Monaco will take this fixture with a 2-1 will at the Ethiad Stadium.
Manchester City 1-2 Monaco
