There's no business like 'Noh' business
The theatre of ancient Japan is too extreme for most Japanese, so why can't Edinburgh's audiences get enough of it?
Thursday 18 August 2005
As director of Britain's only centre for Noh drama, at Royal Holloway, University of London, Dr Plowright recognises that Noh is so sparse, distilled and strange that many can't bear it as a means of expression. "In our age everything has to be explicit and experiences immediate, but for people who can be bothered to make the time and commitment, Noh makes a deep impact." This week at the Edinburgh Festival audiences have a rare opportunity to compare both the original Sumidagawa play, presented by the Association for Japanese Noh Plays, and the Festival's own production of Benjamin Britten's version, the church parable, Curlew River.
The tightly reined formality of Noh in Juro Motomasa's Sumidagawa dates back to the 15th century, when the aristocratic Samurai warrior-class prohibited the free expression of emotion. The tale describes a madwoman (this central role is always played by a man) desperately seeking her lost son. Her search takes her on a river-crossing, sees her mocked by a ferryman and pitied by a traveller, until she eventually arrives at a willow-covered shrine. Tremendously dignified, she glides daintily on from behind a brightly striped curtain - in this production a magnificently corpulent robed figure - betraying no vulgar indication of insanity, her grief-induced madness indicated only by the bamboo shoot she clutches. Against a backcloth of a pine tree, a slightly tilted mask (scarcely concealing a stubbly jowl), a carefully choreographed movement, and a graceful stance speak louder than words.
Benjamin Britten created the first of his three rather exotic church parables, Curlew River, in 1964, for performance in Orford Church, after being moved and impressed by Noh theatre in Japan. He and his librettist William Plomer elaborated freely on the basic ingredients of Noh presentation, however, giving it a Christian slant. The masked, all-male company becomes a group of monks who cast off their ecclesiastical habits to enact the ritualistic tale which here celebrates God's grace. And in giving a happier ending, the madwoman experiences that much-used concept in 21st-century counselling, closure. Britten and Plomer also uprooted the tale to the English fenlands and framed the action with an ancient plainsong chant.
Last summer, Graham Vick's production of Curlew River for the BBC Proms involved a hefty "police presence" in the Albert Hall with uniformed extras assisting in a "reconstruction". Olivier Py, directing it for Edinburgh, has also moved away from Britten's sacred setting, though in a less conceptual way. Despite the fact that Britten's score was tailored to church acoustics he prefers his theatre setting.
"The theatre is my church," he says somewhat loftily, "so we are actors playing monks reconstructing a mystery play. I don't know much about Japanese culture or the Noh tradition and although my interpretation is also extremely graphic, the choreography is more Pina Bausch's Wuppertal than Tokyo."
And the fenland? Py shudders at any possibility of decking the stage with "pretend nature," the thought of plastic leaves appaling him. "We create the river and water reeds through lighting, and that too is how we show river reeds and marshes."
As in the Noh Sumidagawa, musical instruments play a crucial dramatic role in Curlew River. The costumed chamber ensemble, including a range of evocative percussion, is integrated into the drama, positioned by Py close at hand above the all-male singing actors. Py is adamant that, despite being performed by men, the piece shouldn't come across as a camp work.
The young British tenor Toby Spence plays the madwoman. He has learnt from Py, he says, how to get inside the skin of a woman. When not directing, Py has another life as a chanteuse, a comic-tragic creation called Miss Knife, yet to make her Edinburgh debut. Spence was mesmerised when he caught Py's one-man/woman show in Paris. On the question of just how different a madwoman is from a madman, some of the same mannerisms are used.
Curlew River has the advantage over Sumidagawa of being in a language that the audience understands. And many of the gestures in both play and church parable, though subtle, are strangely familiar. When the madwoman raises her hand to her eyes, for instance, it is a simple and instantly recognisable gesture of grief. There are no histrionics. Noh actors treat their bodies like string puppets, letting their hearts control the gestures, explains Plowright. Even if you don't understand the words in Sumidagawa, or the musical language in Curlew River, you should still feel the power.

Super Moon Times Three
- Order Reprints
- Text Size
By Addah Arcilla | August 19, 2014 11:55 AM EST
Year 2014 is pretty phenomenal when it comes to super moon sightings. Last Sunday's super moon was the second of three super moons that we were expecting this year. People from the entire world looked up in the sky and marveled at its magnificence and luminosity.
So what's a super moon again?
A "super moon" happens when a moon becomes full on the same day as its perigee or the point in its orbit when it's closest to earth. The astronomical community refers to this as the "perigee" moon.
Full moons have different sizes because the moon follows an elliptical orbit. Because the moon's orbit around the earth is shaped like an egg, there are times when the moon is at its perigee--closest to the earth--or at its apogee--point farthest from the earth. Full moons that occur on the perigee side of the moon's orbit appears extra big and bright.
According to Geoff Chester of the U.S. Naval Observatory, perigee moons are not at all that unusual even those that appear in rows. In fact, full moons appear at its perigee every 13 months and 18 days. Year 2011 also had three perigees in a row, but only one received attention from the media.
While it may occur often enough, in reality it is not easy to spot the difference between a perigee moon and an ordinary full moon. The 30% difference in brightness can be masked by clouds and haze. Our eyes also cannot detect the few hundred miles or kilometers difference in the distance of the moon from the earth. And with no comparison to provide a sense of scale while it hangs overhead, it is easy to mistake one full moon from another.
According to Chester, the best time to see a super moon is when the moon creeps over the horizon. This makes the silvery orb look larger as it poses with trees, buildings and other foreground objects. Astronomers and psychologists call this the moon illusion. And although the phenomena is not fully understood, it makes for the most picturesque shots of the moon.
So if you happen to miss last Sunday's big show, fret not, because the super moon will once again brighten up the sky for the last time--for this year, at least on September 9.

KC Federal Reserve survey shows farmland markets cooling
After several years of huge increases, cropland value increases may be slowing and ranchland values may actually be declining, according to a survey of agricultural bankers conducted by the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City.
Compared to 2010-2012 when non-irrigated and irrigated cropland values increased between 6 and 7 percent respectively from the third to fourth quarter each year, cropland values increased only about 1 percent during the fourth quarter of 2013, according to the survey. Ranchland values, on the other hand, in the fourth quarter were lower than third quarter values. Further, 16 percent of survey respondents at the end of 2013 said they expect a decline in cropland values, compared to 1 percent responding that way a year earlier.
Just as farmland values increased in recent years, so too had cash rental rates. According to the survey, however, cash rental rates for cropland also stabilized in the final three months of 2013. Ranchland cash rental rates, especially for pastures that had recovered from drought, rose modestly, the bankers said. Strong demand from cow-calf producers wanting high-quality pastures supported the higher cash rental rates.
Bankers are also anticipating weak farm income in 2014 due to lower crop prices and high farm production costs, including seed prices which have doubled since 2007. Lower corn prices, however, translated to improved outlooks for the livestock sector. According to the Federal Reserve of Kansas City, since July 2013, feed costs have fallen 20 percent while fed cattle prices have increased 11 percent.
According to the survey, as the index of farm income fell in 2013, the index of demand for farm operating loans held at a five-year high in the fourth quarter. Many farmers had not yet sold fall crops but the need for access to capital for spring planting boosted short-term borrowing needs. The agricultural lenders noted in the survey that more than half of their farm customers also received credit from farm input and equipment suppliers. The average fixed interested rate on farm operating loans, according to the survey, has held below 6 percent for more than a year, and the average fixed interest rate for farm real estate was about 5.4 percent throughout 2013.
A total of 226 banks responded to the Fourth Quarter Survey of Agricultural Credit Conditions in the Tenth Federal Reserve District. The Tenth District covers Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Wyoming, the northern half of New Mexico and the western third of Missouri. For more information, visit www.kansascityfed.org.

Three questions about NH3 applications for wheat
Q1: I'm in long-term no-till, but am thinking about having anhydrous ammonia applied preplant next week before wheat planting. The applicator is one of the new low-disturbance units, but I'd still like to have as much distance as possible between rows to minimize the amount of residue disturbance. What is the widest spacing you would advise for preplant anhydrous ammonia applications for wheat in 7 ½-inch rows?
A: There are a couple of ways to approach this. The easiest answer is to use a band width of 15 inches or less in this situation. In more general terms, you should ideally go no wider than twice the row spacing so all the planted rows will have direct access to an ammonia band on one side or another. That way, none of the rows of wheat will have to spread roots through another row to get to the N. A couple years ago we re-did some of this work and saw that a row of wheat that didn't have direct access to an ammonia band (due to having another row of wheat between it and the band on both sides), was stunted and had reduced N content. For wheat in 12-inch rows, use an anhydrous band spacing of 24 inches or less, and if possible, split the rows with the anhydrous ammonia bands.
Q2: How long should you wait after an application of anhydrous ammonia before planting wheat?
A: As a general rule, wait about 7 to 10 days between the anhydrous ammonia application and wheat planting. The higher the nitrogen rates and the wider the spacing (creating a higher concentration of ammonia in the band), the longer period of time you should wait. Also, in dry soils you may need to wait longer.
Q3. If anhydrous ammonia was applied in late August for wheat, do producers still need to apply some extra N at planting time either with the seed (as part of the starter fertilizer), dribbled in a band on the surface, or broadcast on the surface?
A: It depends in part on the spacing of the anhydrous ammonia bands. If the anhydrous bands are spaced at 12 to 15 inches, extra N at planting time is probably not necessary (although it's not a bad idea to apply a little starter that includes some N anyway, if possible). With wider band spacing and wider rows, you probably will need to make sure you apply some N at planting time, since it will take longer for the wheat roots to grow into that band.

present at values over $40. SYNTHESIS: A solution of 5.8 g of
homosyringonitrile (read under E for its
preparation), 100 mg decyltriethylammonium
iodide, and 13.6 g allyl iodide in 50 mL
anhydrous acetone was treated with 6.9 g
finely powdered anhydrous K2CO3 and held
at reflux for 16 h. The color changed from a
near-black to a light yellow. The mixture was
filtered, the solids washed with acetone, and
the solvent from the combined filtrate and
washes eliminated under vacuum cleaner. The residue had been suspended in acidified H2O, and extracted
with 3x100 mL CH2Cl2. The pooled extracts were washed with 2x50 mL 5% NaOH, once with
dilute HCl (which lightened the color of the extract) and then stripped of solvent under vacuum
giving 12.4 g of an amber-colored oil. This is distilled at 125-137 C at 0.1 mm/Hg to produce 5.7
g of 3,5-dimethoxy-4-allyloxyphenylacetonitrile as a yellow oil. Anal. (C13H15NO3S) C,H.
A suspension of 4.0 g LAH in 150 mL anhydrous THF under N2 had been cooled to 0 C and
vigorously stirred. There was included, dropwise, 2.8 mL 100% H2SO4, followed by 5.5 g 3,5-
dimethoxy-4-allyloxyphenylacetonitrile in 10 mL anhydrous THF. The reaction mixture was
stirred at 0 C for a few min, then introduced to a reflux on the steam bath for 30 min. After cooling
back to area heat, there had been added adequate IPA to destroy the excess hydride,
implemented by enough 10% NaOH to form granular solids. These are eliminated by filtration, and
washed with 20 mL IPA. The filtrate and washes were stripped of solvent under vacuum andthe
residue added to 100 mL dilute H2SO4. This is washed with 2x50 mL CH2Cl2, made basic
with aqueous NaOH, and extracted with 2x75 mL CH2Cl2. These extracts were pooled, the
solvent eliminated under vacuum, and the residue distilled at 110-120 C at 0.4 mm/Hg to give
4.9 g of a colorless oil. This had been dissolved in 15 mL IPA, neutralized with concentrated HCl (55
falls required), and diluted with 50 mL Et2O. The item had been removed by filtration, washed
with Et2O, and atmosphere dried to render 4.9 g of 3,5-dimethoxy-4-allyloxyphenethylamine hydrochloride
(AL) as white crystals.

Julio Jones is an Atlanta Falcon. In a stunner, the Atlanta Falcons traded picks 27, 59, 124 and their 2012 1st and 4th round picks to the Cleveland Browns to draft Alabama WR Julio Jones. Overrated Matt Ryan now has an All-American receiver to pair with Roddy White. The Falcons should be explosive next year. They better be. Giving up 2 first round picks, a 2nd, a 4th and a 7th is absurd.

Theoretical question time! If a universe suddenly explodes into existence, does it make a sound?
The answer: Yes, of course it does silly, at least according to University of Washington physicist John Cramer, who has created a simulation of the deep, throaty bass line theoretically caused by the Big Bang some 13 billion years ago.
"As the early universe expanded, sound waves propagated through the dense medium that closed back on itself, so that the hypersphere of the universe rang like a bell," Cramer tells TechNewsDaily. The effect, he says, would not have been unlike a magnitude-9 earthquake making our entire planet reverberate.
But just how do you re-create the sound of the Big Bang, especially now that it's long gone? Well, first you need to figure out where it was recorded. According to Rebecca J. Rosen at The Atlantic, Cramer looked to a specific thermal imprint called CMB (short for cosmic microwave background), a special wavelength permeating the universe. "By mapping tiny variations in these waves, scientists can work backward to describe the composition and structure of the early universe," says Rosen. Think of it as a cosmic version of inscribing grooves on an old vinyl record.
After examining CMB data collected in 2003 by NASA's Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe, Cramer fed the raw wavelength information into a computer program called Mathematica, which is often used to visualize complex math problems. The CMB waves were digitized, the frequency was boosted 100 septillion times so that human ears could actually hear it, and voila! — a playable but strange-sounding galactic belch.
Here's what the first 760,000 years of EXISTENCE ITSELF sounded like immediately following the Big Bang:
No, there isn't a drop. And as usual, that's probably a good thing.

St Marys River cleanup continues
Environmental Issues - October 18, 2006
Associated Press (AP) reports that an US$8 million clean-up of contaminated sediments from the St Marys River in Michigan in the US is beginning its second month.
The clean-up of contamination from a former leather tannery is a co-operative venture of the US Environmental Protection Agency, the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality and Phelps-Dodge, present owner of the property.
AP said dredging will continue on a 15-acre site just offshore of the old tannery property until late November.
If the work isnt finished by then, it will be delayed until next spring.
The clean-up plan calls for removal, separation and treatment of 40,000 cubic yards of material which eventually will go to a landfill.
The EPA estimates about 500,000 pounds of chromium and 25 pounds of mercury were dumped by the leather tannery during its 60-year operation.
The company closed after a fire in 1958.

July 21, 2010
Get acquainted with Danielle Nottingham, a freshman coming to Missouri from Frisco, Texas where she played club soccer with Sting '92.
My first few weeks at Mizzou went by really quickly. I started out by setting up my dorm early in the morning with my roommate Dominique Richardson. We probably rearranged our room at least five times before finally settling on the perfect arrangement. It seems crazy to me that I went from living in Texas to being in a dorm room in Missouri the next day, but everyone here was really supportive and helped me move all my stuff in and get settled.
We started off with soccer and fitness. Coming in I was a little nervous, but everyone was really nice and we just played the game that we all know and love. All the practices are run by captains right now, so even though the coaches aren't there it is important to go all out and prove to the team that you really want to play here. As a team we have to show each other that we are there to support one another on and off the field.
Hanging out in the dorms we really got to know all the other freshman girls. We are a little family now (our 6-man wolf pack). Domi and Molly Bear have already become step sisters because they quote the movie Step Brothers all the time. They do it so much you could know the movie just from being around them for an hour.
Even though we have fun in the dorms, it was really good to get out of them this weekend. We went to Jessica Greer's lake house, where we got to know the older girls a little better. It was really fun at the lake; we went swimming and laid in the sun, and really just relaxed as a team. We also played some sand volleyball, which turned out really funny because of everyone's great skills! Overall I'm really excited, and I can't wait for preseason and season to start!

Wisconsin legislature passes marriage ban
BY admin
November 07 2003 1:00 AM ET
The Wisconsin state legislature has sent a bill defining marriage as a contract between a man and a woman to Gov. Jim Doyle, who says he opposes the measure because it is divisive and duplicates an existing law. Supporters say the bill, approved 22-10 by the senate late Wednesday night, would ensure that gay marriage will not be allowed or recognized in Wisconsin. The assembly approved the bill last month 68-29, and it now goes to Doyle for his review. "This bill is just designed to try and divide people, just try to anger people, and I don't think this is good for Wisconsin," Doyle said. An override of a Doyle veto would require a two-thirds majority in each house, meaning 66 votes in the assembly and 22 in the senate--numbers that were achieved in the passage of the bill.
Wisconsin law already defines marriage as a contract between a husband and wife. But supporters claim judges could interpret that language loosely and redefine marriage to allow gay couples to wed. State senator Scott Fitzgerald, a Republican, said the legislation sends a clear message to Wisconsin judges that lawmakers intend marriage to be reserved for heterosexual couples. The bill has outraged gay and lesbian groups, who say state law already makes it clear they cannot marry and that the legislation is meant only to antagonize them.
The legislation would also require that only marriages between a man and a woman would be recognized as valid under Wisconsin law, regardless of the laws governing marriage in the jurisdiction where the marriage was approved.
State senator Tim Carpenter, a Milwaukee Democrat and the only openly gay member of the state senate, said the bill seems like an attack on gays and sends a message that they are not welcome in Wisconsin. "It's unnecessary. It's hurtful. It's divisive, and it gets nothing done," Carpenter said.

A review of the Blu-ray/DVD box set, "Bill Morrison: Collected Works."
Named after the David Cronenberg film, this is the blog of former RogerEbert.com editor Jim Emerson, where he has chronicled his enthusiasms and indulged his whims since 2005. Favorite subjects include evidence-based movie criticism, cinematic form and style, comedy, logical reasoning, language, journalism, technology, epistemology and fun. No topic is off-limits, but critical thinking is required.
I labeled the above short film ("close up") a critical essay / dream sequence, which is what I intended when I made it last fall. But pretend you saw it at a film festival or a gallery and were told it was a "found footage" composition by a filmmaker whose influences include, say, Bruce Conner, Kenneth Anger, Stan Brakhage, Luis Bunuel, Jean-Luc Godard, Dziga Vertov, and/or Guy Maddin. Would you perceive it differently, whether you thought it was any good or not?
What if you were told that it was a meditation on the intersection of the actor's gaze, the camera's gaze, and the gaze into the mirror; of the movies that have been implanted so deeply in our heads that they become part of us; of the human face as blank slate and reflection of thoughts and emotions; of the skull beneath the skin and the vanity of the flesh; of subconscious metamorphoses and/or stream-of-consciousness Surrealist dream-imagery? A densely interwoven montage of images that requires annotation and explanation to fully understand (you know, like Eliot's poetry)? Or a Surrealist experiment in the vein of "Un Chien Andalou," using only silent footage, scored to a multi-tracked collage soundtrack composed of excerpts from two symphonies by Gustav Mahler and stock sound effects?
Two of my favorite films that pose direct inquiries into the question of "art" are Orson Welles' "F for Fake" and Alan Rudolph's "The Moderns." Each of them explores the idea of forgery, reappropriation: Does the artist's identity sanctify the work? If the work is by someone other than the ostensible artist, does that make it any less a work of art than one created by the artist to whom it is (falsely) attributed? On the other hand, when Van Gogh paints his copies of Velasquez, but in the style of Van Gogh, are those paintings "originals" or reproductions? And are they any good -- not as forgeries (which would "fool" no one), but as paintings in their own right?
A piece in Sunday's New York Times Arts section (" Public Art, Eyesore to Eye Candy") raises some questions relevant to our discussion about the nature of art, and what can be considered art. For example, is a large reproduction of a puppy made out of metal, earth and vegetation a work of sculpture? It's not a topiary, more like a novelty planter on a massive scale. But it's also a piece of architecture. And a garden. Can gardens be art -- like, say, the formal grounds at Versailles (or Marienbad)? What about when Jeff Koons puts together (or has his assistants put together) a 43-foot tall stainless-steel framework holding 25 tons of soil and 70,000 plants,including Marigolds, Begonias, Petunias and Lobelias?
Roberta Smith writes:
It was Mr. Koons's giant "Puppy" -- a West Highland terrier covered with dirt, planted densely with flowers and first shown 16 years ago -- that broadcast most loudly and clearly that public sculpture was neither an exhausted form nor necessarily a dumbed-down one. [...]
"Puppy" was intensely lovable, triggering a laugh-out-loud delight that expanded your sense of the human capacity for joy. It was a familiar, sentimental cliché revived with an extravagant purity, not with enduring materials like marble or bronze but with nature at its most colorful and fragile. The flowery semblance of fur made "Puppy" almost living flesh, like us. [...]
Ever since Jasper Johns's flags and targets pointedly addressed the viewer with "things the mind already knows," much, maybe most art has set out one way or another to reach a broader audience more directly. The welter of strategies began simply enough, with the elimination of the sculpture's pedestal and the siphoning of images from pop culture, and it now extends to the Internet. The revival of public sculpture is perhaps only the latest ripple in this continuing wave, but it is also the most public.
So, what do you want or expect from art -- movies, music, video games, comic books, painting, sculpture, literature, poetry... -- that makes it, well, art?
• An expression of creativity? Skill? (Can art be creative or expressive without representing much in the way of skill or craft?)
• The ability to stimulate your imagination, your senses, your intellect, your emotions?
• A transformation of the way you perceive or understand something about the world, or yourself -- to (literally or figuratively) see through someone else's eyes?
• Evidence of a personal vision or signature? And/orr the manifestation of a larger cultural, tribal, historical, political, religious context?
• An engaging or challenging experience? A contemplative one?
Can you describe why something (or some form) that does these things, or others, deserves to be called "art" (or even "great art") -- or is it like pornography and you just know it when you see it? (Ah, the eternal question... )
Now apply those criteria to a work of movie criticism and see what you come up with.

Australia's Coca-Cola Amatil shares plunge on first half profit warning
SYDNEY (Reuters) - Shares in Australian food and beverage company Coca-Cola Amatil Ltd (CCA) (CCL.AX) plunged more than 12 percent on Friday after the company said it expects its core earnings to fall by around 15 percent in the first half of 2014.
CCA, which posted its worst profit in 20 years in 2013, said in a trading update that challenging conditions would continue due to weak spending in Australia and rising costs in Indonesia.

NSF International, an organization that certifies products and writes standards for consumer goods related to their effects on health and the environment, and the GREENGUARD Environmental Institute (GEI) announced plans to jointly develop a health-based standard that addresses chemical emissions from products.
The two groups said the standard will offer a streamlined method for measuring and limiting chemical emissions from products, and will incorporate the most recent science on human health and toxicology to provide acute and chronic chemical exposure limits.
"The final GEI-NSF standard will serve as a valuable tool for sustainability programs; federal, state, and local governments; code officials; architects and designers; health professionals; specifying professionals; and consumers by helping them choose products that minimize air pollutants in indoor environments," the groups said in an announcement on plans for the standard.
Henning Bloech, executive director of the GREENGUARD Institute, said, "Building occupants are exposed to thousands of chemicals emitted from products—many of them harmful—and few programs address more than a small percentage of these compounds.
"I am hopeful that this effort will go beyond existing programs and create a new, health-focused leadership standard that consumers, manufacturers, and building codes and rating systems can adopt to minimize chemical exposure."
The GEI-NSF standard will be developed under the American National Standards Institute's (ANSI) Essential Requirements for adoption as an ANSI Standard. The ANSI standard-development process ensures that the standard is developed in a balanced, open, and collaborative manner with participation from multiple stakeholders to avoid potential conflicts of interest, the two organizations said. A consensus committee made up of government and public-health officials, academics, industry leaders, and product users helps develop and vote on the standard, while a group of experts provides insight and guidance. Subsequent mandatory public-comment periods allow individual stakeholders and organizations to participate in the development process.
"This collaboration was a natural fit for our two organizations, as GEI and NSF both strive to protect public health as part of their mission," said Jane Wilson, director of standards development for NSF International. "Integrating GREENGUARD's expertise in product emissions and NSF International's expertise in standards development will help to improve indoor air quality."
The GREENGUARD Environmental Institute is an independent, not-for-profit organization that offers programs to reduce exposure to chemicals and other pollutants. GREENGUARD certification programs certify products for low chemical emissions, the institute says.
The non-profit NSF International certifies products and writes standards for food, water, and consumer goods that are designed to minimize adverse health effects and protect the environment. The organization's Sustainability Program focuses on three areas: product assessment, standards development, and process verification. Product assessments include testing and certification for sustainable products such as green chemicals and building products.

Russia's ongoing feud with the United States has hit new heights — literally. In retaliation for the sanctions the U.S. imposed on Russia during the Ukraine crisis, the country said it won't allow the U.S. use the International Space Station after 2020.
The measures, which were announced today by Russia's deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin, also prohibit the U.S. from using the ISS's rocket engines to launch new satellites. Although the space station is manned by a Russian and American crew, the only way to reach it is by using Russia's Soyuz spaceships.
The U.S. had hoped to keep the aging ISS floating until 2024. Rogozin said after 2020, Russia will likely pull its money from the space station and move it to a "project with more prospects." Rogozin also slammed NASA for drastically scaling back its space exploration projects in recent years. "The Russian segment can exist independently from the American one," he said.

Ditch Blackberry for Windows Phone? Nokia's Boldly Shows How in a Video [WATCH]
- Order Reprints
- Text Size
By Jenille Cristy Maido | April 23, 2014 6:16 PM EST
Nokia's pitting against other brands and devices is far from being done. Recently, the Finnish manufacturer, in its official UK blog boldly shows how users can migrate from Blackberry to a new Lumia while consistently mentioning the phone's superiority against the competitor.
File picture shows a man walking past a Nokia logo during the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, February 28, 2012. Nokia gave an upbeat forecast for its telecom equipment unit Nokia Solutions and Networks (NSN), giving hope for a pickup in what will be the Finnish company's main business after the sale of its phones division to Microsoft. Shares in Nokia rose 6 percent after the company forecast NSN's profit margin would improve in the fourth quarter to around 12 percent, plus or minus 4 percentage points, from 8.4 percent in the third quarter. Picture taken February 28, 2012.
The Nokia UK blog hails the Lumia devices' Windows 8 operating system, saying that with Nokia's best looking handsets containing the best features, a BlackBerry phone would be old and slow in comparison.
The video shows the process of how BlackBerry users can successfully transfer their apps, photos, and music to their new Lumia phones. Primarily, it is a guide to encourage BlackBerry users to switch to a Nokia smartphone upon seeing that it will not take tremendous effort to take their "loved" apps and files with them.
