Poetry from Burundi
Presenting poetry from Burundi is not an easy task. T.S. Eliot seemed to think true poetry is hardly translated, and one needs to truly sense where those words are from. Until the emergence of the modern, there was no need of presentingpoetry, for poetry was part of life.
….do you feel her drive?
Look at his eyes,
Do you read his verse? [1]
But the unity of life, some will say, was lost with the last myth and cosmic societies, that Burundi belonged to until a century ago. Dissolved by the increasing requirements of the modern world, several separate and independent spheres were born. One of them, the arts and culture, has grown (often unwillingly) to acquire the function of precisely representing the lost unity.
Beyond their powers to express the various contradictions and sensitivities, the world literature offers us symbolic levers for an understanding and appropriation of our lives. The young contemporary Burundian literature is best understood in this context, which is of an attempt to understand its environment and express its sensibility to the world.
In his academic book La Littérature de langue française au Burundi, [2] Professor J. Ngorwanubusa of the University of Burundi regrets however the few avenues for the literature of Burundi. There is barely any publishing house; a few reviews had been existing in the 1960s and 1970s but never survived except a few Christian reviews run by a few members of the Burundi Catholic Church.
But the interested literary person won't miss the corners behind the central market where the old (often stolen!) books are sold, the oldest book storeLibrairie St Paul, or the French cultural center (whose interesting café hosts the unfortunately more and more penniless intellectuals in the city!) and of course the newly opened Lire Africa in Gallerie Alexander, specializing in fiction from Africa. A blog by the poet Thierry Manirambona ("la plume burundaise") lists an impressive archeology of Burundian books old and new, and a few poets do publish their poetry directly on the internet as the acclaimed Ketty Nivyabandi.
Poetry in print might be hard to find in the country, but if you are insisting you will discover the underground intellectual and literary scene of the marvelous Café literaire Samandari that meets every Thursday evening at the Burundi Palace right in the middle of the city center. But one should say they met there, for since a year now these meetings are no longer held. (more…)
Map of a Thousand Lives – A Brief Introduction to Poetry in Malaysia
By Pauline Fan
An attempt to chart the origins and evolution of modern poetry in Malaysia unearths complex historical processes and cultural interactions that have shaped contemporary Malaysian society. To speak of the writing of poetry in Malaysia, one must grapple with – or at least try to imagine – the essentially pluralist and polyglot nature of its people as well as the changing socio-cultural landscape, where "the map of a thousand lives will be seen* ".
Malaysia is a country where at least four main languages predominate – Malay, English, Chinese and Tamil, further punctuated by a multitude of dialects and colloquialisms according to clan or region. The multicultural and multilingual population of the Malay Peninsula has been evident since at least the 15th century, when the Sultanate of Malacca rose to become one of the most thriving entrepôts in Asia, drawing merchants, scholars, and envoys from neighbouring kingdoms and faraway empires alike. Successive waves of immigrants from all over the Malay Archipelago, China, and India – some of whom settled, intermarried, and formed new distinct communities and cultures such as the peranakan or Straits-born communities – added yet more layers to the inextricable diversity of Malaysian society.
The conquest of Malacca by Portuguese (1511) and Dutch (1641) imperial powers preceded British colonial control, and later the Japanese occupation, of the Malay Peninsula and the northern provinces of Borneo. Each of these imperialist presences left an indelible mark on the cultural landscape of Malaysia, including on the Malay language in the case of Portuguese, Dutch and English, adding to the vast compendium of loanwords in Malay from Arabic, Persian, Sanskrit, Tamil, and Chinese. The Malay language served as a lingua franca for the Malay Archipelago for centuries, and forms the basis of the standardised national languages of both Malaysia (Bahasa Malaysia) and Indonesia (Bahasa Indonesia), mutually intelligible with some differences in vocabulary and spelling.
Oral traditions and pan-Malay poets
The origins of Malay-language poetry can be traced to the vast and various oral traditions that have been cradled in the Malay Archipelago as well as classical Malay texts known as Hikayat that date back as far as the 14th century. Traditional Malay poetic forms include the syair, the pantun, the gurindamand seloka, all of which are found in both oral and written literature. While traditional or classical, many of these poetic forms are intrinsically innovative, urging improvisation and spontaneous composition. The pantun, for instance, was sometimes performed as balas pantun, a call-and-response 'duel' or 'flirtation' between two poets, especially during performances of the Dondang Sayang (love ballads) of Malacca.

10 New Voices from Europe
Ten of the most interesting writers working in Europe today have been selected for special promotion by an international jury drawn from prestigious literary venues and festivals.
The list includes poets and novelists as well as translators and non-fiction writers from ten European countries – Catalonia, Croatia, Hungary, Portugal, Macedonia, Malta, Norway, Scotland, Slovenia and Turkey, and was announced at the 2016 London Book Fair on Thursday 14 April 2016, as part of the Literary Europe Live project led by lyrikline network partner Literature Across Frontiers.
The New Voices 2016 are:
Juana Adcock (GB)
Bruno Vieira Amaral (PT)
Clare Azzopardi (MT)
Rumena Buzarovska (MK)
Erika Fatland (NO)
Albert Forns (ES)
Anja Golob (SI)
Arpad Kollar (HU)
Ciwanmerd Kulek (TR)
Zoran Pilić (HR)
Over the next twelve months, the work of these ten literary creators will be promoted in a series of live and digital events across the European Union and beyond. An anthology of their writings will also be published.
The aim of the New Voices from Europe selection is to highlight the richness and diversity of European writing in all its genres and languages, including minority languages.
"Our New Voices will be given an opportunity they might not otherwise have with similar international or European awards," said the Director of Literature Across Frontiers, Alexandra Büchler. "Some of them write in a language which a national jury might not read or their own state does not recognise, despite the fact that it is spoken by millions. Alternatively, they may be writing in a language so small that their readership at home is limited to hundreds and there are few literary translators who can render their work in other languages. But all this does not mean that they should not be heard – so with the New Voices selection, we are doing what Literature Across Frontiers has done for the past fifteen years now. We're making literature travel, sometimes from the most unexpected places."

Poetry and Performance (7) – World Poetry Day
Herzlichen Glückwunsch zum Welttag der Poesie!
An alle Dichter und Denkerinnen, Liebhaber, Selberschreiber und alle, die ohne Poesie nicht aus dem Haus gehen wollen. Mit dem Ende einer Woche voll Poesie und Performance kehren wir zum gemeinsamen Urgrund zurück und feiern mit drei bahnbrechenden Poesie-Performances das Aufkommen und die Vielfalt poetischer Performancekonzepte, ihre Weiterentwicklung, ihre internationale Sprengkraft und ihr DADA-Potenzial. Hier sind Ausschnitte aus Kurt Schwitters Ursonate gelesen vom Autor, Jaap Blonks Performance Ursonography der Schwitterschen Ursonate und Anat Picks Part 1 der tongueTrum (N'ur so nata).
World Poetry Day Congratulations!
To all poets, performers and poetry lovers! This is our final posting in a week full of poetry and performance recalling the very basis of all performative poetry: With Kurt Schwitters´ Ursonate (primordial sonata or sonata in primordial sounds), Jaap Blonk and Golan Levin performing Ursonography and Anat Picks Part 1 tongueTrum (N'ur so nata) we want to celebrate poetic performances and their further development, their international impact and their dada potential.

To another wonderful year of sounds, voices and poems that want to be heard!

Poetry and Performance (6) – Sound out loud!
Performativity is a central characteristic of sound poetry: Poetry and sound become one. Written notices are only of supportive function and help to realize the poems as sounds. Voice and body of the performers are part of the event that can be a bodily experience for both performers and audience. Sound poets are known for their extreme dedication. They scream and whisper fighting or praising the word and its acclaimed meaning.
[a playlist for World Poetry Day 2016] sound poetry
We asked sound poetry-performers Pierre Guéry, Jaap Blonk and Eirikur Örn Norddahl about their personal artistic view on performance and their experiences with it. And once more we find out, that the term performance has a wide range that differs a lot in both its theoretical understanding and its – performance!
Bei Lautpoesie steht die Performativität der Gedichte unangefochten im Mittelpunkt: Laut und Gedicht sind eins, schriftliche Notizen dienen meist nur als behelfsmäßige Gedächtnisstützen und stehen als solche hinter der Realisierung des Gedichts im Laut zurück. Stimme und Körper der Performenden sind unmittelbar mit dem Ereignis verknüpft, das auch für das Publikum zu einer körperlichen Erfahrung werden kann. Lautpoetinnen und -poeten sind für ihre außerordentliche Präsenz, ihre Lust am Experimentieren und ihre unübertroffenen Hingabe auf der Bühne bekannt.
[a playlist for World Poetry Day 2016] sound poetry
Pierre Guéry, Jaap Blonk und Eirikur Örn Norddahl beantworten für lyrikline Fragen zu ihrem Verständnis von Performance und berichten aus ihrem Erfahrungsschatz. Die englischen Interviews werden durch Videos ergänzt, die Guéry und Norddahl in Aktion zeigen. Und Blonk? Den zeigen wir am Welttag der Poesie.
What is a performance – what is not performative?
Pierre Guéry: Concerning poetry, a performance is not a simple reading. Above all it is the whole poet's body into space creating an energetic contact with the audience. With a text of course, but with a type of text that can involve the entire being of the poet: what he means with words, for sure, but also what his body suggests, what his voice impacts. For a performance the poet cannot remain into distance with his creation – whether he's alone or with other artists on stage. Basically, he's got to recall the specific pulse that was inside him while writing and give it back to the audience in its nudity. He's got to have a strong will for transmitting and sharing this pulse sincerely, not being afraid by his fragility or violence. The audience knows very well whether this happens or not, and there is no possible cheating.
What is not performative: a simple reading with a great musician or a nice video! This is not enough to call it performance, though it is very current. Poetry performance (especially what is called sound poetry), as well, is not just yelling words like a mad person! A poetic performance is not just melting different arts to give the poem a beautiful suit.
Jaap Blonk: For myself it is 100% clear if I am performing or not. It's a matter of turning a switch from 0 to 1 and back.
In the case of most poets I have seen on stage, supposedly performing, it wasn't so clear if they were actually doing a performance or not.
Eirikur Örn Norddahl: My idea of performance is very much connected to the idea of "live" – a recording of a performance is closer to being text, which is then only performative at the moment of writing.
How important is loudness to your work?
Pierre Guéry: Loudness is just a help and can be fun. I use it quite often and create some effects that amplify what my voice wants to give. It is only a tool in my work and I never base on it because I want to keep a certain nudity. I do not want to count on technology to find something that I don't possess myself.
Jaap Blonk: I assume by loudness you mean volume (dynamics in musical terms). This is of eminent importance for my work. I give it the utmost care in all gradations.
Eirikur Örn Norddahl: There needs to be a framed spectrum – the spectrum doesn't have be great, but there needs to be an upper and lower border within which the artwork functions, for there to also be a breaking point, a point where the border is pierced and/or crumbles. It can never be so loud that you cannot – through effort – still make it a little bit louder if needed. I have also often thought of the connection between loudness and power as being interesting, not only because we often see the correlation – whether it be shouting police dogs or bombs – but because loudness is also a mask for the powerless, just as silence is a mask for the powerful.
What must the audience provide?
Pierre Guéry: There is no « must »! The audience provides or not, and it provides what it provides if the poet himself provides something strong – otherwise no feedback!
Jaap Blonk: There's nothing the audience 'must' provide. However, I very much appreciate it if their interest goes deeper than just attending a performance, and also stretches toward the permanent objects of art, such as books and recordings.
Eirikur Örn Norddahl: Presence. Humanity.
What was the greatest thing that happened to you onstage?
Pierre Guéry: So many great things happen all the time! The greatest thing is probably, most often, what is unexpectable – when the feedback is a total surprise (and consequently gives an unknown and new meaning to the piece that is performed).
Also when work involves another artist and when both poet and artist touch a state of grace by « making love to eachother » onstage – I mean find their own soul in the other one's soul.
Jaap Blonk: Crossing what I had so far considered 'the border of madness', and finding out that the audience was not embarrassed at all, but touched by a genuine artistic utterance.
Eirikur Örn Norddahl: I don't know if it can be considered great, but I once for a moment thought I had killed the great Jacques Roubaud with my poetry. He was sitting at the front at a show at the Days of poetry and wine in Ptuj, Slovenia, on a shaky stump of wood. When I started my show – which consisted of all sorts of weird noises and conceptually and politically motivated wisecracks – he started laughing. And he just kept laughing. When I broke into a ten minute shoutfest consisting of 17th century Icelandic zaum-nonsense he laughed so hard that he fell of his tree stump, stumbling on to the sidewalk. He was 80 at the time and half the festival panicked and got up to see if he was OK, and I still had eight minutes left of my shoutfest, looking out the corner of my eye feeling very insecure as to whether or not I had accidentally murdered one of my idols and whether or not that meant I should stop. (He was fine; and I didn't stop).
I once had a whole platoon of finnish teen girls and horse enthusiasts chant along with one of my poems with great energy, I have had children go mad with joy, running around glowing – but I've also had people boo me, throw stuff at me, I have had people cry, shout, and one person even had an epileptic fit when I was on stage. And then I hadn't even started reading yet.
Poetry and Performance (5) – Voices in action
Spoken Word, Rap, and Slam Poetry: Those could be first things that come to mind when we think about poetry and performance. Voices, words and poems are loud and powerful when they fight for justice and against repression. But the words always also stand and fight for themselves, for the space they need, their language and the connections they achieve. In TV-Shows and concert halls performers like Ursula Rucker, Saul Williams, L-ness and others give rise to the power with which a poem constitutes and forms a reality.
[a playlist for World Poetry Day 2016] spoken word performer
The selected videos demonstrate how the established surroundings of poems and their categories can be challenged to find new ways of reaching an audience. TJ Dema postulates a word in action, Sharrif Simmons meets other artists in the streets of a foreign country, Maud Vanhauwaert performs her poem in a quotidian surrounding.
Spoken Word, Rap, Slam Poetry: So könnte eine spontane Assoziationskette aussehen, die an Poesie und Performance anknüpft. Hier treten, Stimme, Wort und Gedicht unüberhörbar in Aktion. Oft tritt das Wort für eine gerechtere Gesellschaft ein und gegen Repression. Dabei steht und kämpft es immer auch für sich und für den Raum, den es greift, für die Sprache, die es spricht, die Verbindung, die es schafft. Performerinnen wie Ursula Rucker, Saul Williams, L-ness und andere setzen auf die realitätserzeugende Wirkung der Wörter und demonstrieren in vollen Konzertsälen, in Fernsehshows und auf Wettbewerben die Kraft ihrer Stimmen.

Die ausgewählten Videos zeigen, wie über die bereits etablierten Gedicht-Schauplätze und Kategorien hinaus auf ein Publikum zugegangen werden muss, um einer Zuhörerschaft neu zu begegnen. TJ Dema formuliert die Forderung nach dem Wort in Aktion, Sharrif Simmons testet seine Wirkung in einem fremden Land, Maud Vanhauwaert bringt ihr Gedicht in alltäglichen Situationen zum Einsatz.

Poetry and performance (4) – Presenting a poem in different ways
A poem is a poem – what else could it be? The German poet Gerhard Falkner is eager to try out new ways of presenting his work. Collaborations with other artists, filmmakers, graphic and sound designers are the results of his curiosity towards new shapes and dimensions of poetry.
[a playlist for World Poetry Day 2016] music performances
In an interview with lyrikline he describes the two steps of his artistic process. During the creation of a poem the dimension of sound is already included: "Denken ist hören" – "thinking is listening" and cannot be separated from writing or reading. But the access to poetry differs: Reading and listening are two possibilities with different advantages. The second step of the process comes after the production when the "original" poem is already concluded. In collaborations Falkner describes himself as a tree that is being put in scene by a fence or a poster: It is still the tree but it is being looked at differently. His openness towards working together with other artists anticipates the recognition of different energies. Text, sound and action must profit from the coincident presentation. The first performance of Das Wort by Gerhard Falkner and Sound Designer Johannes Malfatti at the Literaturwerkstatt Berlin demonstrates the synergy of improvisation and montage of text and sound.
Poesie und Performance (4) – Viele Arten ein Gedicht zum Sprechen zu bringen
Ist das Gedicht immer schon Performance? Oder ist es erst einmal nur der Ausgangspunkt, der einzeln für sich steht und gleichzeitig die Auseinandersetzung und Weiterentwicklung durch andere Künstlerinnen sucht? Gerhard Falkner ist in der Dichterszene für seine Experimentierfreudigkeit bekannt. Für ein Interview mit lyrikline gibt er Einblicke vom Entstehungsprozess seiner Gedichte bis zur Aufführung mit anderen Künstlern.

Over the past calendar quarter, Research in Motion (RIMM) shares have nearly doubled off their $6.22 nadir towards today's $12. This recent action includes a multi-month high of $14, which was established last December 17. On December 20, Research in Motion stock lost more than $3, in what calculates out to be a 23% loss. This immediate collapse was largely due in part to the company reporting revenue far beneath Wall Street expectations. Research in Motion posted losses because this business lacks a viable product to effectively compete against the dominant Apple iOS and Google Android operating systems.
Proponents of any turnaround must acknowledge the idea that Research in Motion executives must now labor directly against the Nokia (NYSE:NOK) - Windows ecosystem to field a third option within today's smartphone matrix. Shareholders are banking on the looming release of BlackBerry 10 to help resurrect the Research in Motion business model. Investors are effectively trading stock off a hope and a prayer. Research in Motion stock is effectively a call option.
The Smartphone Market
On January 3, research firm comScore released its most recent mobile subscriber market share report. This survey averages data for quarterly period ending November 2012. According to comScore, Google (NASDAQ:GOOG) Android and Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) iOS operating systems power 53% and 34% of all smartphones, respectively. On the handset side of the ledger, Samsung and Apple are also one and two on this list. At the bottom of the heap, Research in Motion BlackBerry, Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) Windows, and Nokia Symbian operating systems effectively wage war over the remaining table scraps of the smartphone market.
In what is shaping up as a "winners take all" marketplace, the Apple iOS and Google Android duopoly continues to gain strength. Taken together, these two operating systems increased share by roughly 2% over the prior quarter, while Research in Motion share declined by 1% down to 7.3% of the market. Research in Motion and Microsoft engineers are both hell bent upon introducing telecommunications, computing, and entertainment ecosystems to market that can compete against Apple and Google.
As the smartphone becomes increasingly commoditized, brand recognition influences consumer behavior largely above all else. Apple and Google minimalist culture and artistry is synonymous with today's Web 2.0 movement and hipster movement. Alternatively, the Blackberry, or Crack Berry, is more so identified as a tool for the early 2000's technocrat. 2008 marked the pinnacle of the Blackberry hey day, when Research in Motion stock peaked at $141 per share. One year earlier, in 2007, Apple had released its revolutionary iPhone, largely to the mockery of brazen Research in Motion executives. Ironically, it is this very same iPhone platform that facilitated the staggering collapse of the BlackBerry Empire at Waterloo.
In a scathing critique, The Verge writer Jessie Hicks dismisses Research in Motion as a "technology company founded by an electrical engineer" that is too unwieldy to compete against chic Silicon Valley outfits that are consumer-oriented electronics businesses. In order to re-establish Main Street credibility, Research in Motion must win the looming showdown against Nokia.
Blackberry 10 Versus Windows 8
Research in Motion is set to release its BlackBerry 10 operating system on January 30. Technology enthusiasts speculate that Research in Motion will also introduce BlackBerry Z10 and X10 smartphones on the date of the new operating system unveiling. Industry insiders associate this latest line of offerings to retain the small keyboards, fast web browsing, and impressive security features that have become synonymous with the BlackBerry brand. According to David Frith and The Australian, BlackBerry 10 users can set up separate work and personal profiles for messaging, social networking, and voice calls. This latest BlackBerry 10 package will arrive equipped with access to more than 70,000 applications, which pale in comparison to the hundreds of thousands of programs that are available for Android and iOS platforms. Again, BlackBerry 10 is more so in competition with Windows 8 for the grand title of telecommunications industry third wheel.
Windows 8 product reviews and sales figures remain mixed, despite all efforts from the Microsoft marketing machine. While the Apple iPad continues to sell like hotcakes, the Microsoft Surface is literally a non-factor within the tablet market. Earlier this month, J.P. Morgan analyst John DiFucci slashed financial estimates for Microsoft, upon concerns of weak Surface and personal computer sales. In retrospect, Windows 8 may be dismissed as a flop, as it has failed to engineer a competitive ecosystem. Consumers will now evaluate Samsung and Nokia Windows 8 smartphone offerings based upon individual merit, rather than pieces of a larger consumer electronics puzzle.
Unfortunately for Research in Motion sympathizers, the Nokia's Lumia remains the best bet dark horse candidate to challenge today's smartphone duopoly structure. Nokia, with the help of rapper Nicki Minaj, markets its Lumia as a fun and reasonably priced phone. Technical specifications for each edition of the Lumia are equal to, if not superior to popular iPhone and Samsung Galaxy offerings. A Wall Street Journal report, however, indicates that carries slashed prices on Lumia phones in the aftermath of weak holiday sales. This latest debacle at Nokia does not exactly bode well for Research in Motion shareholders.
The Bottom Line
In a sign of the times, Research in Motion recently paid Nokia $65 million to settle a patent infringement lawsuit. Without a settlement, Nokia's claims would have effectively banned the Blackberry 10 from coming to market. While Apple versus Samsung courtroom costs tally in the billions, the two millennial heavyweights war over a mere pittance. Wired dismisses these happenings as "sad."
On December 20, 2012, Research in Motion released its third quarterly report for fiscal year 2013. For Q3 2013, Research in Motion took down a small $9 million profit. This bottom line result is actually a sharp turnaround, as RIM has already recorded $753 million in losses during the prior two quarters. When broken down further, however, Research in Motion is still posting negative operating income prior to any provisions for tax credits. Last quarter, Research in Motion suffered $230 million in operating losses, as part of its $1.2 billion in operating losses for the year.
Most importantly, revenue at Research in Motion collapsed through fiscal 2013. For the three months ended December 1, 2012, RIM recorded $2.7 billion in revenue, which is a steep decline from the year-over-year period, when the company took down $5.2 billion in revenue. Again, Research in Motion stock lost 23% in value the day this latest quarterly report was released.
Over the past nine months, Research in Motion generated $2.1 billion in cash flow from operations. This cash flow from operations trickled down to the $1.9 billion in cash on the RIM balance sheet. The Research in Motion $12.6 billion balance sheet also includes $3.1 billion in intangible assets and $2.5 billion in property, plant, and equipment, over top of $3.3 billion in total liabilities. Subtracting out the $3.1 billion in intangible assets leaves RIM with $6 billion in tangible book value, which is equal to its current market capitalization.
On paper, RIM appears cheap. A disastrous BlackBerry 10 release, however, would force investors to surrender at Waterloo amid another round of losses, asset write downs, and restructuring plans. Research in Motion shareholders now trade off hope.

Travel Blogs from Positano
View from above-Ravello
We awoke at such a nice hour-8am. Enjoyed a leisurely breakfast which included a delicious cappuccino with velvety milky foam on top. We enjoyed the fresh bread and we each loved the treat of the slightly sweet donuts in the shape of a 'Q.' We decided to take a ferry to Amalfi then the local SITA bus to Ravello for lunch. Boarding the ferry in Positano was rather rocky at the dock, a challenge for Kristin and I with queasiness. She quickly learned ...

... much comfort. The road has been widened to accommodate two lanes (one lane each way) however as cars park on the side of the road (so close to the wall that any passenger would have to climb out the driver side to get out) usually there is only enough room for one car to pass. Quite often one car will have to reverse to a wider spot - even then passing each other is to within centimetres of each other on the edge of the cliff. Sitting on a bus looking down is not for ...

Unfortunately the Blue (famous) grotto was closed due to the bad water conditions. There is no way you could have gotten a little boat in there today with the waves crashing against the rocks there.
Next stop was the port of Capri. There were lots of waves so we were holding onto each other trying to help everyone off. We ...

... floating ideal in the sea. Our favourite coastal drive has been the stretch from Hermanus to Cape Town in South Africa but this was running a very close second. We got off the bus at Positano on top of the hill and walked the winding path down to the water. The sun was belting down on our backs so we made for the pebbly beach for a refreshing swim. With the water a bit calmer than yesterday the tour boats to the Grottos were operating. We booked in for a two hour ...
Dead City, Volcano, Good Day

Normally, this hike would not have been very bad. It was about a 45 degree vertical which wound its way up the volcano to the top; however, it was covered in the smallest, loosest stone imaginable. This meant that every step taken slid back another half of a step. Regardless, Dilyara and I trekked on.

> the constant |100| seems small
this comment is dumb, but the logic of adding |strlen()| is strange. shouldn't it be MAX(strlen()) instead of + strlen?
all the strings get concatenated together, so we have to add all the strlens...
you're right that 100 is too small - it needs to be ~76 (the total length of the header strings) + (4 * 12) (the per header overhead times the number of possible headers). That would handle the case where all the headers are present...So 150 would be a safe number...

Rupert Murdoch's attack on Google and other "aggregators" looks at first sight to be a clear-cut case of naked self-interest from an ageing media mogul determined to protect a print news empire built up over 50 years. But while Mr Murdoch is no doubt primarily motivated by the bottom line of his beloved NewsCorporation, there is a bigger issue at stake – and it is one that should worry anyone who believes in democracy and the accountability of those with power.
Google and other websites make big money from the audiences they attract for their content, which is Hoovered up from countless news sources all around the world. The creators of that content, meanwhile, earn not a bean from such aggregators – they often do not even give their permission for it to be taken – and are unable to sell it for themselves online because it has already been made freely available.
To add insult to injury, having seen their content filched by the search engines, newspapers then find themselves beholden to them. In order to attract visitors to their own sites – and thus generate advertising revenue – newspapers must strive to ensure their content appears as prominently as possible with the aggregators. It is a damage-limitation exercise because the advertising-only business model does not work. Not a single mainstream newspaper anywhere in the world is making a profit from selling advertising on its website. Mr Murdoch is right to say that in such a world, the future for newspapers that invest in journalism is bleak. But do not weep for our narrow commercial interests: something much more important will be lost with the demise of newspapers. Imagine a world where there is no longer a free press to hold to account politicians, business leaders or anyone else in authority.
This is what, every day, journalists do; their work, above all, is a check on the power of those who would otherwise be unfettered, from the lowliest parish council official to the largest multinational corporation. And this is what stands to be lost if Google and others continue to threaten the economic viability of high-quality journalism, wherever it appears.

I have a 14inch tiger Oscar who is about 4 years old. He has a 15 pleco as a tank make. They have been together since they were fry. I have a 55 gal and I recentley added a 6 inch jack dempsey. My Oscar is laying around like he is lathargic. What do I do?

i have a nother oscar fish in the with my other oscar fish could that be the reason why he is laying at the bottom of the tank
he is getting bullied by the other oscar
i have dividers but there all to small
i have other tanks but all my filters are all broken and my friends don't want the other one and the pet store won't take the other oscar and i don't have a enough money to buy a new filter what do i do
How can I get my Oscar fish to move? He is no longer than 3 inches and I have him in a 45 gal fish tank that has been filtering for 6 weeks

Please help I have a 5in oscar had him since april 1 2014 started out great shy for a about 3 days he was about 1 1/2in when I got him so he's been growing nicely would come to front of the tank when approached an then about a month ago he started hiding all the time he acts very scared now I have to shake the food now to get him to come out an he doesn't eat nearly as much as he was I feed him twice a day he's in a 75 gal with a Raphael catfish that only comes out when it's pitch black in the room my levels are good ph 7, amo 0, nitrites 0. Nitrates 15 the only thing that I can think of is i got some pond snails from the lfs here an put them in the tank for the assassin snail that was in the tank he ate most of them before they hit the bottom an a few days later I notice little white things on the glass which I have since found out are limpet snails an I don't know how to get rid of them an they are breeding badly. Oh an my temp is 80 an I do wkly 50% wc. Please any help would be great.
I turn his light on at 10 and off at 830 pm. Is that to long?? I have searched an everyone says those snails are beneficial to the tank I hate them personally they make my glass look dirty but I don't want to use chemicals to get rid of them. Thanks so much for the help hopefully he will come around.
Ok I did some more test today an my ammonia is now 0.25 ph ,nitrite , nitrate had no change what can I do?? Thanks for your help
Ok I'll do a 50% wc now I use prime all the time I do rinse the bio balls an ceramics in the tap water never really thought about that being bad would it be ok to use distilled water. I use the syphon that attaches to the faucet so my tank water goes down the drain. Thanks again

I have three oscars all juveniles. One red one tiger and one wild type in with a few fancy plecs gold nugget, sunshine, green phantom, tank is 800 UK litres.. as they grow will the wild type be too aggressive for the other two? Thanks
i have two baby oscars i purchased at the same time 1 is amaziningly active the other has been laying at the bottom of an on for a few days
Hello. I have 3 oscars which are really energetic for weeks after i got them .i went out of town for 3 days and i told my cousin to feed them. After i returned they were lying down on the bottom of the tank. Its been 2 weekw now. But every feeding time they always come back up and they are energetic. My concern is they are spending MOST of the time on the bottom of the tank doing nothing. Thanks a lot for the help.
Hello i have 6 oscars for 4days now….this time i feed them with shrimp…and after i feed them they all stay at bottom of the tank…i dunno if i feed them too much…:(
Hello, I'm not sure if this is the correct forum to ask this question but yesterday my 5in tiger Oscar had decided to eat my one inch pleco sucker fish, he ate it head first but could not swallow the rest, my brother and I stupidly decided to rip out the rest of the pleco from his mouth and now his lip looks dislocated or something, is there anything I can do about it or will it go back over time, please help.Thanks
I have a new Oscar bout 1.5 years old and he is with a butterfly catfish. He lays on the ground on his side a lot and the catfish is always under him trying to get his to swim. Well that's what it looks like. The temp is a good but he is always doing it. What do I do
My Oscar has been laying on his side In tank now for three days an loosing his slime coat. Did a water change an treated. All I can think of is maybe he caught something from the fish I feed him was doing fine till I added new fish to feed. I don't do it often but this time messed him up.
SOS to all my fish owning friends. I need help, I have now adopted an Oscar & a pleco. both babies, I know they will need a bigger tank as they grow. BUT in the meantime- they are stressed from the move & new environment. I'm new to the hobby, & I need advice on how to save my new fish. both of them are being very lethargic. the pleco is not sucking on anything anymore, & the Oscar is not eating much, and a also laying on the bottom of the tank. he looks like he is seriously dying. I'm getting a test kit tomorrow to get the ph ammonia nitrite and nitrate levels. I conditioned the water before putting them in, cleaned everything. I feel as if I ruined the beneficial bacteria by using tap water… I'm new at this and definitely did something wrong. please help me save my fish.
Okay I got 125gL tank
3 tiger oscars (2 black/orange/brown and 1 albino) all about 7inches size of hand
1 Jack Dempsey 6inches
1 pleco about 4inches
1 parot 3inches
1 spiney eel of some sort
2 assorted cichlids (light blue yellow dot on tail and a small orange)
1 big gold fish
2 Chineese alge fish
All runs off API Filstar XP-L canister
Two power heads for proper water rotation
Have tank for almost a year all fish have being doing awesome fish would swim aggressively nip at each other but always got along swimmingly, now the big bullies my two dark tiger oscars are lathargic show no aggression and swim or lay at bottom of tank. Albino and every other fish seems fine.
At first I thought it was due to recent wanted change about a week ago when I did my water test
ph 6.6
high range ph 7.4
ammo 0.25ppm
nitrite 0.25ppm
nitrate 5.0ppm
Water temp was high 70s low 80s degrees Fahrenheit
I know those aren't ideal conditions and am working to get that back in order
So my initial thought was new tank syndrome I water changed and had my ammonia nitrites and nitrates out of whack was the reson they were acting weird so I added a nitra zorb pack to my canister filter and introduced a fan to cool water to 73 degrees nitra zorb claims to reduce all nitrate, nitrite, and ammonia levels to a safe condition so I figured water should be getting better
But my two dark oscars fluctuate in this lathargic behavior gain color float at top lose color sit at bottom and only the two dark oscars do this sometimes appear to be dead until I push them to swim.
Okay so long story short how do I know if they are sick not that I don't mind them being peaceful to the other fish but I rIsed these fish since they were tiny, they have always been the bouncers of my tank now they are just laying round and turn from pale aitting at bottom to dark sitting top of water?
I think it might just be the water temp but I guess I should do a more current water test
I just got my oscar fish and they are about 2 inches long and during the day they lay at the bottom of the tank and wont eat but at night when the light is off they are active but my main concern is they wont eat what do i do?

how can we get this presentation I need the .ppt can we get it
"Windows 8 and Windows are not the same platform"...? Windows Phone 8?
Why, as you said, did Microsoft dump .NET? I am told that if the apps don't get smoking and appearing, Windows 8 Phone is a bigger failure than any of the super-failures Microsoft has had in other phones?
Why go to new APIs and us to lose synergy of the primitives these developers have and make sure they do not keep the one conceptual synergy that justified me buying a Windows Phone 8 so I could develop for it. Why do you get so excited to say that Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8 are NOT AT ALL the same things?????
Gee whiz it is hard to stay pro-Microsoft. What in the world you guys thinking? I don't get it?
Well, good luck finding developers that are willing to learn a new platform x 2. Tablets & Phones should run on the same platform, like Android and iOS. Let us know when you get there.
Mr Riga,
I saw your Video Series about Building Apps for Both Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8 and love it
On the other hand, and sorry to bother you but I was looking all the code of them in http://bit.ly/BuildForBoth and I could not find them, for it, Could you help me to get them?
Thanks for your time

Ramirez to start at shortstop Tuesday, bat sixth
Six weeks to the day after he dove for a ground ball in the finale of the World Baseball Classic and tore a ligament in his right thumb, Hanley Ramirez is back in the Dodgers' starting lineup.
Ramirez was activated from the DL before Monday's game and struck out as a pinch hitter. Tuesday night, he is back at shortstop and batting sixth for a Dodgers team that seems to keep taking one step forward and one step back.
While Ramirez has returned, left fielder Carl Crawford was scratched from the starting lineup during batting practice because of tightness in his right hamstring.
Meanwhile, right-hander Josh Wall was optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque after giving up seven runs in two innings of Monday's 12-2 rout by the Colorado Rockies. Right-hander Javy Guerra was recalled in his place.
Veteran left-hander Ted Lilly was having an examination and MRI of his back and neck Tuesday after complaining of stiffness during his start Monday.
"We'll know more later," Dodgers manager Don Mattingly said of Lilly's status.
Tuesday's lineups:
CF Dexter Fowler
2B Josh Rutledge
LF Carlos Gonzalez
RF Michael Cuddyer
1B Jordan Pacheco
3B Nolan Arenado
C Yorvit Torrealba

Inadequate data security has made the hotel industry a favorite target of hackers looking for credit card information, a recent study has found.
In Vegas casinos, the eye in the sky watches out for the money, but not always the guests LAS VEGAS (AP) — Hotel maid Brandi Patrick was chased down the hallway at the Flamingo casino last year by a nearly naked man.
Choosing a credit card can be overwhelming.
The Intercontinental Hotels Group — parent company to a number of hotel chains, including Holiday Inn and Holiday Inn Express — is investigating a possible breach of customers' payment card data.
Nearly everyday, new digital glitches are discovered that could hand over all your precious data to online criminals.
Smartphones serve multiple purposes in our daily lives, apart from merely being a device to send and receive calls. They act as cameras, video recorders, TV and movie-watching platforms, internet access devices, and location trackers. Today, the average smartphone can add one more use to the list; if you happen to stay at any hotel part of the Starwood (HOT) group, it can now unlock your room door.
When President Obama mentioned that he'd recently had his credit card declined at a New York City restaurant, the news was kind of funny. The leader of the free world getting his card rejected? But all joking aside, it can happen to anybody, for any number of reasons. "I guess I don't use it enough, so they thought there was some fraud going on," the President said.
BAMAKO: At least 27 people were reported dead on Friday after Malian commandos stormed a hotel seized by Islamist gunmen to rescue 170 people, many of them foreigners, trapped in the building. The jihadist group Al Mourabitoun, allied to al Qaeda and based in the desert north of the former French colony, claimed responsibility for the attack. The former French colony has been battling Islamist rebels for years. More than seven hours after the initial assault, a security source declared the drama over, along with the deaths of two militants.
Security blogger Brian Krebs, who broke the news about the massive credit card hack on Target, isn't satisfied with simply breaking the news. He's now trying to identify the hackers, and blogging about the process.
With international attention focused squarely on Sochi days before the opening ceremonies of the 2014 Winter Games, a Sunday meeting of the International Olympic Committee made it clear that, "as always," there was a laundry list of issues in need of solving. From unfinished hotels to killing stray dogs, here are some of the issues and controversies making headlines in the lead-up to the games.

Deal Reached on Key Immigration Hurdle
A bipartisan group of senators could be a week away from a comprehensive immigration overhaul deal after top representatives from business and labor signed off on a guest worker plan Friday evening.
Sen. Charles Schumer (D., N.Y.), a member of the bipartisan group, spoke with both AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka and Chamber of Commerce President Thomas Donohue Friday evening, according to someone familiar with the discussion. On a call, the trio confirmed that business and unions had reached a deal on a new visa program...

Over the last 20+ years the major vendors have promised that implementing and managing IT systems is getting easier.
While there have been major improvements in the ease of creating systems, which at one time would have required a vast army of systems engineers, programmers and operators, the simple fact remains that for IT systems to deliver true business outcomes, they must be well designed, built and operated.
Without these factors IT systems, while appearing to be delivering business value, are fragile, overly complex and expensive to operate.
Vendors will always promote their products and services, sometimes without the client's best interests in mind, as the prospect of making a sale can override other considerations such as:
FINAO provides this linkage between business and technology to develop an independent non-biased view and acts on behalf of the client to ensure the clients' best interests are represented and taken into consideration.

American society is experiencing an epidemic of obesity. Because of the key role of the hypothalamus in controlling body weight, the long-term objective of this research has been to examine arcuate nucleus hypothalamic genes involved in energy homeostasis. The proposed studies focus upon the hypothalamic melanocortinergic system which has become a focal point for basic research and drug development. That system contains alpha melanocyte-stimulating hormone (?-MSH) and melanocortin receptor (MCR) subtypes MC3R and MC4R. ?-MSH is a potent satiety-inducing factor that mediates its effects by binding and activating MC3R and MC4R. A continuing analysis of hypothalamic gene expression changes has identified ankyrin repeat and SOCS box containing protein 4 (Asb-4) as a very promising investigative target. Asb-4 is an important intracellular regulatory protein in CNS energy homeostatic circuits that is highly regulated in hypothalamic neurons. The proposed research is contained in four specific aims: 1) To examine alternative melanocortin signaling pathways. We hypothesize that MC3R and MC4R activate mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathways in addition to well- recognized cyclic AMP-dependent processes in hypothalamic neurons. 2) To determine the role of melanocortin signaling in regulation of c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK). We hypothesize that MC3R and MC4R, via Asb-4, regulate arcuate nucleus JNK activity. 3) To elucidate transcriptional regulation of Asb-4. We hypothesize that Asb-4 expression in the hypothalamus is regulated by the melanocortinergic peptide, ?-MSH. 4) To determine the role Asb-4 in feeding behavior. We hypothesize that ankyrin repeat and SOCS box containing protein 4 is a crucial intracellular protein in hypothalamic neurons. We hypothesize that directed overexpression of Asb-4 in hypothalamic proopiomelanocortin neurons will decrease food intake, increase energy expenditure and confer resistance to high fat diet-induced obesity.
American Society is experiencing an epidemic of obesity. The hypothalamis, an area in the brain that is essential in control of appetite and food intake, is the focus of these investigations. The proposal examines carefully the hypothalamic melanocortin signaling system, an important energy regulatory system that has postulated to effect appetite, energy expenditure, and glucose metabolism.

This review is from: Acer XR341CK bmijpphz Black 34" 4ms (GTG) 21:9 WQHD Curved , 3440 x 1440 LED IPS Monitor, Adaptive-Sync( Free-Sync) with Speakers
Pros: Beautiful display, I would argue it's top 3 if your looking for an ultrawide gaming monitor, and easily the best if your looking for a freesync compatible ultrawide.
Colors are rich, really pop, it's very light for its size, looks great, along with the stand.
Cons: There is some backlight bleed, not too bad unless your have a black background, not really too noticeable otherwise. Seems to be a common problem with all ultrawide screens in this price range and cheaper.
Other Thoughts: Freesync 1440p ultrawide, 75hz refresh IPS, only a higher refresh rate could have made this any better, it's d---- near perfect otherwise, however it's pricey, and the wife reminded me of this many times lol, would but againREAD FULL REVIEW
This review is from: Intel Core i7-5960X Haswell-E 8-Core 3.0 GHz LGA 2011-v3 140W BX80648I75960X Desktop Processor
Pros: Multi tasking workhorse, great upgrade for content creation,
Cons: not much of an over clocker, not really great for gaming YET, once DX12 comes around along with better multi core support on PC games, this CPU *should* get a huge boost.
more expensive then it really should be imho
Other Thoughts: Runs relatively cool, OC as a daily driver at 4.2 Ghz water cooled, can run at 4.5 Ghz but i prefer lower temps right now, and it eats anything you throw at it even at 4.2READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: ASUS RAMPAGE V EXTREME LGA 2011-v3 Intel X99 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Extended ATX Intel Motherboard
Pros: This is a another great quality board from Asus, they are asking a pretty high premium though. Lots of Bells and whistles, lots of tools to make an overclockers job easier.
Cons: I blame this more on the chipset being so new, rather than asus, because this is affecting other x99 boards as well.
Dedicated soundcards, atleast PciE are having issues on this board. I have an Asus Xonar Essence STX, great soundcard, and it would not work on this chipset!
After some searching I found that after placing the PC in Sleep-mode, once its awakened the SoundCard is functional again. This appears to be only affecting people who have a single graphics card and a PciE soundcard.
Other Thoughts: I home the issues with the soundcards gets addressed soon, although many people have been having the same issues, Asus reports they have not been able to duplicate the problem.
