Affero GPL Draft Posted for Discussion
The Free Software Foundation (FSF) has completed and posted the final draft of the GNU Affero GPL Version 3 (AGPL).
The Affero GPL is identical with the GNU Public License in Version 3 in most parts, with just one paragraph distinguishing the two licenses: Item 13 Paragraph 1 stipulates that the source code of software used remotely must be made available free of charge. This refers to web applications such as content management systems where users only interact with the front-end. To allow users to view the source code, Affero has developed the Affero GPL in cooperation with FSF.
The first version of the AGPL dates back to the year 2002 and was a modified version of GPLv2. AGPL and GPL have been incompatible since the introduction of GPL Version 3. The current draft is designed to resolve this issue. AGPLv3 is also compatible with the Apache License 2.0.
The discussion concerning AGPLv3 is now on. A date has not been fixed for the final AGPLv3 release.

This is a rich but indigestible bouillabaisse of a book; a prodigious mix of the whole canon of western thought about comedy from Aristophanes, Rabelais, Baudelaire, Jung, Freud and Bergson at one end to Bernard Manning, Jo Brand, Roy "Chubby" Brown and Les Patterson at the other. So who am I, a simple jokeherd toiling at the Mount of Bottoms, to say that after all that research the author doesn't know what he's talking about? Either that, or he does know but has no intention of sharing it with us, viz: "Comedy is invariably on the side of plenitude; it is expansionist not reductive; it knows that less means less and only more means more". Any the wiser? Nor me.
Howard Jacobson has his moments, with interesting things to say and vivid ways of saying them; but too often he's tempted to be, like Jonathan Miller, "too clever by three-quarters". The list of names above gives you a pretty good idea of how the book works. Either it's expatiating on the theories of discredited old misery-guts like Bergson and Freud or it's ankle-deep in knob-gags. There are no half-measures. The often impenetrable prose is lavishly nuggeted with erudition, like smarties on a child's cake. I nodded off a few times, only to be jolted awake by another of Jacobson's huge range of false penises staring me in the face. Like a Dutch girl I know, forced to take the traditional stroll through Amsterdam the night before her wedding with a dildo strapped to her forehead, Jacobson too has de penis on de brain.
He claims that "The entire experience of theatre-going, for the Greeks, was phallus-centred." Just as you're beginning to wonder whether that might not be a bit of an exaggeration, he whips out a vase displaying a satyr balancing a wine-jug on his knob and then he's off: "If that makes satyr the earliest comedian, later comedians have not failed to learn from him. Herakles has his club. Harlequin his batte. Grimaldi his stove- poker. Punch his universal cudgel. The jester his marotte and bladder. Ken Dodd's tickling stick is clearly in the ithyphallic tradition."
I love that "clearly". Clear is what it is not: less than one reader in cent mille knows what ithyphallic means. Patronising it is, bien sur, and also cojones. Occam's razor: of two alternatives, choose the simplest. A tickling stick is what it says it is, a stick which offers the threat or promise of being tickled. Up yer undercarriage, missus, to be sure; but that doesn't stop it being a feather duster.
If there is even a hint of a sentient being holding something in its paw, from Sooty to a statue of Queen Victoria, then to Jacobson it's a cock. Now, it was I who once convinced the Controller of BBC2 to broadcast the Cunnilingus Song. Genitals tickle me as much as the next man. But this is commitment of a different order. After 85 pages of knobs and arses, Hopi Indians lobbing shit at each other, satyrs balancing amphorae on stiffies and Scandinavian deities plaiting their pubic regions to goats' beards, I thought: "is this guy getting enough?"
I looked him up on the fly-leaf. Goaty-looking feller. Beard. Priapic proboscis; shagged-out looking eye. Then I had my Britannica CD Rom search for "jacobson". The very first entry it threw up was: "Jacobson's Organ: region of chemically sensitive nerve endings in the oral cavity (my italics) of many vertebrate animals. Jacobson's organ is most strongly present in snakes". This richly phallic passage is more than just a striking coincidence. It is an explanation. What do you expect? Jacobson's Organ is more famous than he is.
There's another odd thing about this book. Like that new novel by Sean French and Nicci Gerrard, it seems to be written by two people. One is the Jacobson who was "born in Manchester in 1942"; the other the Jacobson who "studied English under F R Leavis". The Mancunian is responsible for most of the best bits. He has a lively, expressive style. He makes jokes, is painfully honest, and has the advantage that he writes almost exclusively in English.
The Leavisite, I suspect, may not be a person at all but some form of software. He's a Eurothesaurus, perhaps, with a simultaneous translator function and a bizarre taste for Zuni and Hopi pueblo clowns who drink urine and chuck poo at each other.
The first bloke is a nervous, touchy individual with a larger than usual personal space, frightened of clowns, spiders and teenagers, who lurches alarmingly between weeping and contempt. He's like some anatomical diagram of a person, all his insides spread out to view. His academic alter ego is altogether more dispassionate. And very well read. I suppose we all ought to know what an apophthegm is, but anhedonic, evaginations, agelast?
Anyway, one Jacobson sets off round the world to find out why people laugh for the accompanying Channel 4 series. He doesn't have much fun. People jostle him. They have pustules. They smell of vinegar. He is nearly thumped by a Navajo Indian; a Venetian harlequin tries to pull off his nose at the Carnival.
Meanwhile, the other Jacobson tours fifth-century BC Athens, the Commedia dell'Arte, the Middle Ages etc, meeting only poets, psychologists and philosophers. They neither jostle nor smell. They opine.
The trouble is that citing learned authority has never been any guarantee of truth. No-one's right about everything. Take Aristotle. How seriously can we take his assurances on comedy, when he also assures us that the universe revolves around the earth? Quoting Bergson's line that "the attitudes, gestures and movements of the body are laughable in exact proportion as that body reminds us of a mere machine" is to be expected. But did no- one laugh before the invention of machinery?
In the contest for the best lines, the comics beat the philosophers hands down. Bernard Manning, for instance: "They say you are what you eat - I'm a cunt". It's a great joke, if you like that sort of thing, but Jacobson's comment? "Good to be reminded that there's a bit of a gourmand and a bit of a pig in all of us".
A bit of a gourmand? If you ever have the misfortune, as I once did, to watch Bernard Manning eating a sandwich, Hopi shit-throwing ceremonies will hold no terrors for you. What's funny about such jokes is not that they are rude or "remind us of our animality" - that's incidental - but that they're clever. They make completely unexpected, but logical connections between disconnected things. The other reason Manning gets the laugh is because it's true. He is a cunt, he knows it, and we know it. He no more reminds anyone of themselves than a pile of rotting antelope flesh resembles a clarinet.
It is not animality, or mortality or all that stuff we feel when offered a good joke. It is delight: delight at the unexpectedness, the neatness, the logic of the uncoupling of the mind from one train of thought to another.
But what's Jacobson getting at under his mound of arses? Here's the nub: "If comedy, in all its changing shapes, has one overriding preoccupation, it is ...that we resemble beasts more closely than we resemble gods, and we make great fools of ourselves the moment we forget it". He enlists Bergson: "Laughter cannot be absolutely just. Nor should it be kindhearted either. Its function is to intimidate by humiliating."
I'd guess this book comes from a man without children. No-one who lives with a one-year-old, whose gurgling hilarity clearly comes from nothing more sinister than the sheer merriment of being alive, of being able to walk, of having a mummy who loves you, could have written it. The comedy of cruelty is only one kind of comedy. Plenty of funny things have nothing to do with the body's mortality or phalluses.
It seems to me that Howard Jacobson's view is so one-sided precisely because he lacks a sense of being alive. He won't join in. Anything pagan, remote, foreign or ancient, no matter how gross or stinky, is "exuberant". But let him go to Blackpool pier and he is moaning about the weather, the tea, the hotel and the "shit in the shops, shit on the beach, shit in the amusement arcades". Pueblo shit, oh, mahhvellous. Shit shit, he don't like.
Touchingly, he says as much himself. After the horrible experience in Venice, he staggers back depressed to a cafe: "How vitalizing carnival looks on the printed page. How irresistible in all its communal contortions... As long as you never have to leave the house". Despite it all, I felt quite sorry for the guy.

Industry Canada and the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) have received numerous stakeholder submissions and inquiries in relation to Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL) and its two subordinate regulations, known as the Electronic Commerce Protection Regulations (ECPR). While the CRTC's ECPR have been in final form since March 28, 2012, Industry Canada has been receiving feedback through public comment and bilateral and multilateral stakeholder meetings since its original draft ECPR were published on July 9, 2011. Both Industry Canada and the CRTC have recently attempted to improve understanding of the new legislation: Industry Canada has incorporated stakeholder feedback into a new draft ECPR while the CRTC has released further information on the new legislation.
On January 5, 2013, Industry Canada published its revised draft ECPR under CASL. These regulations have been amended, in part, to address concerns raised by the numerous submissions Industry Canada received with respect to the initial draft regulations.
Of note, the current draft of the ECPR:
Ending on February 4, 2013, the ECPR are currently subject to a 30-day consultation period during which stakeholders are invited to submit to Industry Canada comments regarding these proposed regulations. We expect that the regulations, subject to any revisions which may arise from the consultation process, will be finalized thereafter.
The Canadian IT Law Association (IT.Can) hosted an informative outreach meeting early this year where representatives from the CRTC spoke about their views on the future enforcement of CASL. The focus of the meeting was to provide commentary on the two Compliance and Enforcement Information Bulletins issued by the CRTC on October 10, 2012, as well as to explore some of the hypothetical scenarios that have been raised by industry and the legal community.
The following insights were gleaned from the discussion with CRTC:
Given that CASL is not expected to be in force until late 2013 or early 2014, the full impact of this legislation and its corresponding regulations continues to remain uncertain. While the CRTC and Industry Canada have made efforts at clarifying the requirements under CASL, the multitude of variations on digital communications have made it difficult to anticipate precisely how CASL will apply in all possible emerging scenarios.
Nevertheless, we expect this law will invariably apply broadly and, despite the increased flexibility contained in the ECPR, impose relatively onerous requirements on businesses that rely on CEMs.
In anticipation of this new law, such businesses should be aware of the foregoing requirements, and should begin the process of ensuring that internal policies, practices and procedures comply with same.

Sorry, I'm not a peer; redirecting to someone who is :-)
Why is this warning at all? childCount is a PRUint32. ATTRCHILD_ARRAY_MAX_CHILD_COUNT should be 0x3fffff. There are certainly values of PRUint32 that are bigger than that!
Marco, I assume you reproduced the warning?
Note that back when the bug was filed, a 64-bit build would have warned here. But that should have been fixed in bug 480655.

No, I just assumed it was reproducible. I didn't see the bug was so old.

When will Sprint Business plans get the Note 2?
I'll make this quick, cause this is probably an issue with my company. I'm available for an upgrade on my work phone (large company cell plan with sprint). They said the GS3 and iPhone 5 are available, and the iphone 5 is cheaper even with insurance.. weird.., but the Note 2 wasn't available yet. They said sprint went over the note 2 in their last meeting, but it wasn't available yet. I was told maybe the beginning of next month or so. Is this my company's cell lady not reading something correctly, misunderstanding, or is there a longer wait for business plans? Would be nice to dump my VZW nexus, upgrade this old work phone, and consolidate a bit. Thanks guys.

Re: When will Sprint Business plans get the Note 2?
Gotcha. Figured it was on our end, not sprints. I wonder if our cell department just isn't up to date, or if for some reason we do in fact have to wait.

Re: When will Sprint Business plans get the Note 2?
Nah, they pay the plans, we pay out of pocket for premium devices. I talked to them today. Apparently they have monthly meetings with sprint. Typically sprint tells them about the device, then the next meeting they bring one to demo and that's when we can purchase. Last month was the "introduction," next meeting they are supposedly bringing the demo. I'm sure I could go around my IT department, call sprint and have it shipped (have done that before) but I'd rather not step on toes. I think it is just a case of the cell department not necessarily being up to date, and just going off the paperwork they are given at the monthly meetings rather than taking 2 seconds to check the system and place the order.

"Funny and Memorable"
The first thirty to forty-five minutes of this book, I wasn't sure how I felt, but as I got pulled into the story more and more, I loved it. The narrator's voice is perfect for the main character and the story gets better as Biff and Jesus travel around the world learning different philosophies.
Some of the jokes are a little low brow, but it works and it's funny.
It's one of those books you listen to and are sad when it's over.
I thoroughly enjoyed it and do recomend it to others.
"Wonderfully made, wonderfully read"
The story of Jesus' missing years - his adolesence and early adulthood - is here told by his decidedly worldly best friend, Biff. Don't worry; it's not disrespectful. It's actually joyous, in its own hilarious way. The idea that Christ had a sense of humor was a huge theological heresy in the 13th century. It shouldn't be so today. As on "A Dirty Job", also by Moore, Fisher Stevens (the narrator) is really, really good. He completely inhabits the prose and totally sells it. I wish he had narrated all of Mr Moore's books.
"Most Hilarious book I've read maybe ever"
Right at the top
So many to list. Loved the apostle John, Biff inventing Sarcasm, Joshua and Biff as Buddhist monks, Joshua's face on the bread all over town, etc........
No, but he did a fabulous job! So many voices and his sarcastic Biff was the best!
Stuff you didn't know about Jesus, as told by his bff Biff.
Awesome book! I would and have recommended it to friends.
"Loved it!!"
This is a very entertaining listen! Fisher Stevens is outstanding!! If you like "A Dirty Job" then you'll enjoy this one. If you haven't listened to "A Dirty Job" then get it!
"Fun and Funny"
This book is similar to other Christopher Moore books in the sense that it deals with his odd humor and writing style. If you like other Moore books, then you'll probably like this book. The story itself was an interesting twist on what could have happened during the "lost" years of Jesus' early adulthood. On the surface, this book sounds like it would be offensive to Christianity, but it definitly isn't. Don't be afraid of the content, this book is a fun, intriguing, and funny read, and all of the humor is in good taste. I definitly recommend it.
"Best Narrator Ever!"
Really. Fisher Stevens's reading is, I think, even better than Nigel Planer's readings of Pratchett's books. I am not entirely sure this would be a great book to read on paper, but it was truly great to listen to.
Not that the story is bad. Moore does a nice job of weaving various religions/philosophies into Jesus's experiences during the missing decades. It makes for a very entertaining story, and quite a twist on coming-of-age. The humor is definitely laugh-out-loud quality in many places. The quality trends down over time, with the childhood story being best, and the travels as a young adult being good, but the end -- where the story needs to be congruent with the "real" gospels -- being rather weak.
Oh, and it is definitely just entertainment, with maybe a splash of pointing out how many spiritualities are quite similar at their core. If the author wanted and expected the reader to really think anything new and different after finishing this, I have to admit that the lesson was lost on me.
Bob Kay
"Simply Hillarious"
I gave this 5 stars because I could not give it 6. Fisher Stevens is one of my favorite narrators now and when you listen to the job he did with "A Dirty Job" you will know that he is made for Christopher Moore's writing. I can't wait for audible to get more of Moore's stuff.
I have tried to get some of my more Christian friends to listen this story and several have stopped half way through. They think it is funny, but have a hard time reconciling the story with their beliefs. If you are very uptight about religion, this might not be the book for you, but if you can keep an open mind, then you will ultimately find this book very fulfilling. No one that I know that has finished this book has been disappointed.
College English professor who loves classic literature, psychology, neurology and hates pop trash like Twilight and Fifty Shades of Grey.
"The Reincarnation Of Philip Roth..."
except, of course, Philip Roth isn't dead... Nonetheless, hilarious and heartfelt, a touching and funny account of Jesus' wacky childhood through the eyes of his best friend. ..Biff.
"Surprisingly spiritual"
This book is first and foremost a coming-of-age tale.
The narrator meets Jesus (Joshua) when they are both children. From the beginning, the young Joshua knows who he is, but not exactly how to go about fulfilling his difficult destiny. Josh must travel to the ends of the land in order to learn what he needs to do, and Biff needs to go with him because Josh would get himself killed if he went alone. Together they have adventures as fantastic as those in the Bible, but not nearly as bloody.
Biff's tale is about a wonderful man striving to live up to his divine origins by embracing humanity. To a hardened apostate like myself, this portrayal as Jesus as a good man who would not only associate with sinners, but consider them his best friends, warmed my heart. If the church I was dragged to as a child had preached about this loving man, instead of his jealous, violent, judgemental and distant father, I might still have faith.
"Very funny and NEARLY blasphemous"
"Lamb" is the product of a fertile mind. When I think about a book like this, I always wonder most about how anyone could think of writing it. Here we have a (roughly) historical account of the life of Christ told through different and VERY irreverent eyes in such a way that would likely make a fundamentalist explode but possibly make an unbeliever think "Christ is cool." Christopher Moore takes New Testament facts, throws in some of the wilder beliefs about what He did between ages 13 and 30, and then resurrects (literally) a childhood pal to tell the tale. Wow.
This is a highly enjoyable book. I don't think it's blasphemous, but it does walk right up to the line.
If you aren't convinced, then let me just give you two reasons to listen to it:
1) You get to hear the very revealing comments from two blind men after getting their sight back. Amazing.
2) You (finally) find out why bunnies are a part of Easter.

Close to places of interest, was a good place to stay
Surrounded by some of Rome's most famous places of interest - Campo de' Fiori, Castel Sant'Angelo, Saint Peter's Church and Piazza Navona, to name but a few - Via dei Cimatori is a quiet, almost traffic-free street in the very centre of the city.
The apartment is perfectly positioned for exploring the city on foot, although numerous bus services stop just a few metres from the flat for those wishing to venture a little further afield.
The recently restructured apartment is located on the first floor (no lift) of a 17th century palazzo in the centre of the city of Rome.
The spacious sitting room is fitted with two sofa beds (one double, one single) and a fully equipped kitchenette with oven, dishwasher and fridge as well as all necessary utensils.
The bedroom is furnished with a double bed and the bathroom is fitted with a bathtub.
Both the sitting room and the bedroom have air conditioning.
The apartment still has its original terracotta floor and wooden beams which contrast to great effect with the modern furnishings (leather upholstered bed, black glass dining table) to create a characteristic and welcoming atmosphere.

We had a very pleasant stay in this apartment. When we arrived, a nice lady was waiting for us to give all the explanations about the apartment and the neighborhood. We enjoyed the location, close to all main touristic attractions, but in a very quiet and peaceful little street. You can go almost everywhere by foot !!! The apartment is very well furbished, so you can easily have breakfast and dinner if you don't want to go out for eating. There are also a lot of nice shops very close to the apartment where you can buy good food if you want to. It was really fantastic. For us, the mattress was a little too hard, but that is a very personal. We will certainly recommend this apartment to our family and friends.

Bob Edwards Weekend, July 26-27, 2014
Doyle McManus, Washington columnist for the Los Angeles Times, joins Bob to discuss the latest political news. Then, we hear another commentary from children's book writer and illustrator Daniel Pinkwater.
Director and actor Rob Reiner has been involved in some of the most beloved movies of the 20th century. His credits includes This Is Spinal Tap, Stand By Me, The Princess Bride, When Harry Met Sally, A Few Good Men, and Sleepless in Seattle. His new film, And So It Goes, stars Diane Keaton and Michael Douglas as next door neighbors who reluctantly look to each other for love late in life.
Then, the latest installment of our ongoing series This I Believe.
It's been more than twenty years since Scott Turow helped invent the legal thriller genre with his number one bestseller, Presumed Innocent. That book sold more than six million copies and was on The New York Times bestseller list for 45 weeks. Turow has remained a practicing lawyer over the years and has been very active in capital punishment reform. His latest suspense novel, Identical, is now available in paperback.
Bob sits down with members of the Austin-based classical collective Mother Falcon for a private concert in our performance studio. They'll play a few songs from their latest "orchestral rock" album titled You Knew and discuss the unique challenges they face when touring with more than a dozen members.
Bob Edwards Weekend airs on Sirius XM Public Radio (Channel 121) Saturdays from 8-10 AM ET.

Like the beings offered a safe haven in Sanctuary, Sci Fi Channel's latest original series has yet to establish what it is before it can truly be comfortable in its skin and accepted on its own terms. In trying to be too many things at once, the show relies on cliches and loses the ability to actually entertain.
On one hand, Sanctuary wants to be an action-packed spectacle, full of fight scenes and splashy special effects. On the other hand, it plays up an intellectual moodiness that delves into questions of what makes an entity worthwhile through our skewed lens of humanity. Yes, the show can be both, but it hasn't figured out how to balance the two sides cohesively. Toss in lines that are ambiguously humorous, confusing caricatures instead of characters and an ever-growing menagerie of creatures, and it all becomes a dull muddle of too many ideas.
In the two-hour premiere, forensic psychiatrist Dr. Will Zimmerman (Robin Dunne) is called to a crime scene where he deduces not everything is what it seems. Quickly we realize that the little boy who lived in that room is what Dr. Helen Magnus (Amanda Tapping) terms an "abnormal," one of the many beings who lives on the fringes of society.
Helen and her team — including her badass daughter Ashley (Emilie Ullerup) and sarcastic techie Henry (Ryan Robbins) — track down these entities and provide a safe place for the benevolent/misunderstood ones and protection from the dangerous ones. Will is recruited because he has an uncanny ability to see beyond what's accepted as reality and to what's actually there.
Here Will is supposed to be the everyman, the character with whom we should sympathize, which is quite a bit to rest on his slim, bookish shoulders. He's a pleasant-looking, non-threatening sort who, like us, is being introduced to this strange world of hitherto fictional creatures and is filled with a healthy amount of resistance, doubt and awe. Unfortunately, he's not entirely likable … yet. Will has his quirks — an almost anal-retentive attention to detail that lacks the delightful charm exhibited in Monk — and appears to be there merely to react. No doubt he'll exhibit more chutzpah and personality in later episodes.
Similarly, Helen is too detached, with her Mona Lisa smile promising, but never fulfilling, the need for warmth. She's also rightfully mysterious. After all, she is revealed to be 157-years-old, so apparently there's something about her that makes her one of those "abnormals" that she protects, but she is on occasion exasperating when she speaks in riddles or withholds vital information from Will. In addition, Tapping is at times a bit too reserved, perhaps which is why when Helen is upset or angry, she seems almost laughably melodramatic. (For more, check out Zap2it's Amanda Tapping interview discussing Helen Magnus)
It ought to be noted, however, that of all the visual effects on the show, Tapping's transformation with just a hairstyle and color change is the most impactful. Sci Fi fans may know her — but have difficulty recognizing her — as the blonde and brilliant Col. Samantha Carter on Stargate: SG-1 and Stargate: Atlantis. Somehow with a little chestnut dye and time to grow out her locks makes her into a completely different person and yes, even takes years off.
The look of the show, with computer-generated sets and backdrops a la 300 or Sin City, creates a suitably otherworldly feel. It's a shadowy landscape that works for the most part, considering the massive amounts of post-production needed and the imagination of the actors when interacting with the sets. Strangely enough, the darkness creates an intimate, almost claustrophobic atmosphere that belies the scope of the story. Perhaps this is the result of originating from webisodes, where the intimate nature would play more intensely.
Sanctuary also has difficulty with tone. It is serious, yet is difficult to take seriously with lines and attitudes that stretch suspension of disbelief. Some lines, such as when Will tells Helen, "Thanks, but if you're looking for resumes, try Monster.com. I already have a job," fall flat. The sarcasm and wink at the "monster" element to the show are apparent, Dunne's delivery is fine, but something about how the line just hangs in the air cancels any humorous effect.
Overall, Sanctuary should fill the viewer with a sense of wonder, but it's all too familiar, from the ragtag group of people with an unusual mission to the cliched mansion/lab/zoo where all are housed. The secrets the characters harbor fail to intrigue, the fight scenes are cheesy instead of stimulating and the odd creatures neither frighten nor fascinate. Worst of all, the show lacks the oomph and sense of fun of shows like Doctor Who or even its spin-off Torchwood.
Sanctuary is by no means a bad show, but it does feel like it's trying so hard that it never settles on a single voice or vision. But as Helen says, "Sanctuary for all is not just an empty motto," and the show certainly deserves a chance to prove its potential.
Sanctuary comes home on Sci Fi beginning Friday, Oct. 3. Also, check out Zap2it's Sanctuary photos.
What's your take on the show? Was I too harsh? Could it replace any of your favorite sci fi shows?

Ietswaart in Mexico: 1961-1962
In 1961 a young Dutch designer, Boudewijn Ietswaart, arrived in Mexico City. Schooled in hand lettering and a master of many graphic techniques Ietswaart came to the effervescent capital of Mexico as an assistant to Alexandre Stols, himself a famous book designer who had been sent abroad as part of a UNESCO.
Ietswaart was enormously productive these two years as a designer of book covers for the Fondo de Cultura Económica and the Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico (UNAM). A list of his work for the UNESCO spans more than 50 titles. Ietswaart himself, now 72, is modest about his efforts, saying he was "allowed to do the titles" and noting the pretentiousness of being sent on an aid mission to a publishing company of international stature such as the Fondo de Cultura Económica.
Nonetheless he took seriously his goal of making the presentation of mass produced books on academic subjects more accessible. A revision of his work gleaned from Mexico City's second-hand bookshops displays a playful, fresh and elegant style to the layman's eye. For an expert on hand lettering there is more to be seen in Ietswaart's designs. Jan Middendorp author of Dutch Type, the canonical book on the history of typography in the Netherlands, titles one chapter the "Unrecognized brilliance of Boudewijn Ietswaart" giving Ietswaart pride of place among Holland's great designers of letters. Nonetheless Ietswaart is still virtually unknown, largely because he was working as a freelance designer outside of his own country.
This period was also a golden age in Mexican letters. Gabriel Garcia Marquez moved to Mexico in 1961 and Nobel Prize winners Octavio Paz and Carlos Fuentes were regulars in the scene around the great Fondo de Cultura Económica. Artists such as the Catalan Vicente Rojo worked in the design section. And Mexico in general was at the peak of its 20th century cultural glory.
After his two-year stay in Mexico Ietswaart moved to Spain and Venezuela, eventually leaving book design and moving into scientific illustration. He is now retired and living in Amsterdam.
In 2008 during its investigations of Dutch typography the Circulo de Tipógrafos, a group of young designers in Mexico City, stumbled on the work of Ietswaart by way of Middendorp. Inspired by the designs of an unknown foreigner in the golden age of their country's letters the Circulo de Tipógrafos has undertaken a project to convert his hand lettered alphabets into digital fonts compatible with computers anywhere, thereby commemorating the work of Ietswaart and this particularly important period in Mexican cultural history.
The aim of the Circulo de Tipógrafos is to present these fonts during the yearly congress of the Association Typographique International, the organisation of the international type community, which is to be held towards the end of October 2009 in Mexico City. This presentation is to be accompanied by an exposition to be held in a major venue in the city's historical centre.
This presentation is a call to sponsors and interested parties for their proposals regarding this inspiring excursion into an unexplored byway of typographic history: Ietswaart in Mexico. 1961-1962.

But If the plants arrive within 3 or 4 days, I would much rather have
them moist. That way they recover a lot faster than if they arrive dry.
I've had some that have arrived dry and are still wilted! It's been

Track List
Album Notes
Personnel: Dez Fafara (vocals); Mike Spreitzer (guitar, programming); Neal Tiemann (guitar); Austin D'Amond (drums).
Audio Mixer: Mark Lewis .
Recording information: Audio Hammer Studios; Audio Vault; HaunteDD Studios; Nrg.
The seventh studio long-player from the Santa Barbara-based rockers, Trust No One finds DevilDriver delivering the goods, as per usual. The word "innovate" has never found its way onto the band's to-do list, so it should come as no surprise to longtime listeners that the 12-track LP stays close to the source. That said, as purveyors of molar-bashing, death-driven, melodic groove metal, DevilDriver have both the pedigree and the experience to warrant more than just a cursory listen from prospective clients. Trust No One waste little time with prepping the ears for decibel insertion, with "Testimony of Truth" arriving via a palm-muted blast of a breakdown and exiting via a very large hole in the back of the listener's head. Elsewhere, the beefy and punitive "My Night Sky" slows things down to a nice, steady pummeling, while the punishing lead single "Daybreak" never lets up, hurling face first into the blistering title cut, which features some nice melodic leads from Mike Spreitzer and new guitarist Neil Tiemann. Overall, it's another solid outing from the veteran earth-shakers, and while it won't be inciting any revolutions, its sonic heft will certainly rearrange your furniture, and quite possibly your face. ~ James Christopher Monger

"Surrender to the sushi chef" at this "superb" "omakase-only" Japanese duo in Downtown and Cheviot Hills where a "seemingly endless" procession of "prepared-to-perfection" fish is served with "Zen-like simplicity" by a "responsive" staff; admittedly, it's "expensive", especially considering the "sterile" setting, but for "traditional" lovers, it "doesn't get much better than this."

Was worried about last year's 'Let's Streak' seedlings that didn't get
in the ground, but needn't have been. Had potted them "up" a couple of
times and added Osmocote, so they weren't completely neglected. Ended
up just putting the flats on the ground outside the greenhouse and
covering with shredded oak leaves. An early, unseasonal snow that
stayed on the ground much, much longer than usual probably helped.
also, our winter had less wide temperature variation than usual.
Uncovered them last week as some were peeking through the leaves, and
have very little loss, with lots and lots of really nice streaky
seedlings (IMHO).
Am amazed at the amount of growth. They all went to bed as small, but
healthy single crowns. Several now have three or more crowns, two have
five, and the single crowns are almost all very fat and nice. I think
these have done much better than seedlings I have put into the ground
during their first year. Does anyone know if it is possible seedlings
fare better in smallish pots than in the ground?
Now, what am I going to do with two years' worth of seedlings?? What a
happy dilemma.

Here are a couple interviews Nazanin did to promote Ben-Hur, which is now in theaters.
Ben-Hur Interviews
Nazanin Boniadi couldn't help but feel blessed last weekend. And it wasn't simply because she was in Los Angeles promoting the Ben-Hur remake, an epic tale of faith, freedom, and forgiveness set in Jerusalem during Jesus' carpenter years.
"At one point today, I was sitting in an interview with [co-stars] Rodrigo [Santoro] on my left and Morgan [Freeman] on my right, and I thought, 'I am sandwiched between Jesus and God,'" Boniadi joked during an exclusive interview with Refinery29. "I'm pretty sure that is basically what heaven feels like."
Not that her spirited outlook isn't also bolstered by the fact that her acting career, which didn't even start until after the Iranian-born, London-raised stunner graduated from college (with honors in biological sciences), seems touched by an angel. (Sometimes quite literally. Ben-Hur was produced by Roma Downey.)
"I am a Middle Eastern woman in a leading role in a Hollywood film with this kind of budget releasing in the summer. That doesn't happen every day," said Boniadi, who came from the Australian set of her next gig, Hotel Mumbai, in which she plays a hostage and wife of fellow captive Armie Hammer. "I am so grateful that [they] took the chance and did the right thing by casting authentically because this is what people looked like in that region."
Still, Boniadi knows all too well that the casting process isn't always concerned with getting it right or turning a color-blind eye. The Homeland and How I Met Your Mother alum recounted tales of her early days in Hollywood, addressed diversity in the entertainment industry, and touched on a variety of topics including how she almost became a doctor, Ben-Hur's powerful and enduring message, and filming in the land of gelato, pasta and pizza.
Your bio makes it sound like you were well on your way to curing cancer when the call of the stage became too hard to resist.
"Since I was probably five years old, [I knew] that I wanted to help people and help make this world a better place, as cheesy as that sounds. I'm Iranian, so culturally it was instilled in me from a very young age that education is key. And then [my parents would] say, 'The world is yours. You can be a doctor, a lawyer, engineer, or a dentist. I was like, Okay. Medicine sounds appealing because you get to help people…I'm going to be a doctor because that's what good Persian girls do. I graduated high school top of my class. I moved to the U.S., and I went to U.C. Irvine where I studied biological sciences, pre-med. I graduated with honors, applied to a bunch of medical schools, and took the MCAT three times. I was doing cancer research and winning awards."

A Beautiful Game
Nazanin narrated a piece on Fox Sports Live called A Beautiful Game, that premiered tonight. Here is a bit about it, as well as a piece itself.
This summer, on fields throughout Canada, women's soccer is captivating the imagination of young girls around the world. Thousands of miles away, in the middle of the Jordanian desert, less than 8 miles from the Syrian border, sits a far different field. Here, displaced adolescent girls play a forbidden sport. The field a temporary distraction from the challenges they face every day, and the horrors they've overcome. FOX Sports Live brings you the incredible story of A Beautiful Game, a story of resilience, recovery, and hope in a seemingly hopeless place.

This Lent, take a 40-day devotional journey with Dietrich Bonhoeffer. Click here to sign up.
Jesus' gathering of disciples was not unusual in his time and Jewish setting. Many rabbis would gather students around them to teach Torah. But the kind of disciples Jesus gathers is unusual—they are not theological professionals. Fishermen, tax collectors, former revolutionaries and just plain old sinners make up this new community. Jesus launches them on a journey with God, a walk in which God begins to work in their lives. The lesson is that we need not be perfect to come to God; rather, we need to trust God and let him do his gracious work in transforming our lives.
The various "call scenes" that appear in this section underline the nature of the new community (5:1-11, 27-39; 6:12-16). It does not shun sinners, but invites them to come and meet God and his healing forgiveness. Even the miracles of this section show how much Jesus identifies with those he gathers to himself. These unusual events underline the authority he has in creating this new band of followers (5:12-16, 17-26; 6:1-5, 6-11).
The gathering of this unorthodox group of followers and the practices they engage in heighten opposition. Jesus' ways are not the ways of the Jewish leadership, nor are they the ways of a self-righteous elitism. He attracts those who know that they need God and that Jesus has the authority to forgive their sin (5:24, 31-32).

New York Paycard Regulations Will Not Take Effect March 7
New York DOL rules placing burdensome restrictions on paycards and direct deposit will not take effect on March 7. In an action brought by paycard vendor Global Cash Card, the N.Y.

IRS Warns of Phishing Scheme Targeting Payroll Professionals
The IRS has renewed its alert about a phishing scheme targeting payroll professionals that involves fraudulent email messages that appear to be from a company executive requesting personal information on employees. In a second alert, the IRS explains how the scam is evolving and what steps employers should take if they receive a phishing email.
President Signs Executive Order on the ACA
On January 20, President Trump issued an executive order to "minimize the unwarranted and regulatory burdens of the" Affordable Care Act (ACA). The order directs federal agencies to use their discretion to waive or defer aspects of the ACA that would impose a financial burden on individuals and insurers. The order does not alter employers' reporting requirements.
APA Opposes Virginia Paycard Bill Requiring Paper Check Option
APA sent a letter to the Virginia legislature in opposition to a bill that would, if enacted, require employers to provide paper checks as a payment option to employees (H.B. 1445). The bill was tabled, which means consideration of the bill is postponed, at least for now.
In the late 1930s, 10-key electric accounting machines allowed operators to enter both alphabetical and numeric characters in inputting payroll data on various types of pay forms. #paynews Source: The History of Payroll in the U.S.
