Personally I do not like "Integrated Development Environments". I find it too complicated to learn how to use properly..... I heve read recently that a programmer typically produces 10 lines of code per working day (all overhead included) and that it is the same in assembly, C, C++ or higher level languages. Since one line of a higher level language corresponds to many lines of a lower level one, there is a strong improvement in productivity with higher level languages. In my own experience it is not at all like that. It may take me a day to figure out how to write one line of code for a complex WinAPI call while I easily produce 100 lines of C code per day and much more in assembly as long as I know what I want the program to do. (It is another thing to devise new algorithms by trial and error....) 73 Leif / SM5BSZ ############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <linrad@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>.

Todays Creative Space, a desk shot. Do I look like an artist with a very short attention span?
Last years goals were met, not in a big way, but done. I said I wanted to sell art, not just do art, and things are looking up on Etsy. That effort/mandate will continue. Goal setting is a great way to focus, and when you do that, action follows, so now it's time to refocus. This years goal is to always make time, a good chunk of time, to make art. Because you can't make art while you're marketing, scanning, social networking, or writing blog posts (okay, some blog posts are art, but some are not-this isn't), and I mean visual art, things that happen with a thing in my hands. And I also mean art that is primarily expressive, not a product, as art that sells on Etsy can often be the latter. And even if it isn't, if I think so, and I'm focussed on selling something, anything, it changes what I do and how I go about it. So this year I need to always make time for that Art First kind of art. To do the art that I would do if no one is looking, to do the art that I do when I have no other agenda.
And it seems that, when I give myself absolutely free reign, I make it small, very small. It's pretty clear I gravitate to the miniature art format. So that's what you see up above--very tiny art. Also, after seeing some of the awesome things people do with polymer clay, I decided to give it a shot, my way. These prototypes have holes so they can be strung up for display, or worn, and maybe I will, maybe I won't, but they are not jewellery, because they are not a product, they are little sculptural abstracts, and until they are done, they are nothing but experiments and practices. And when they are done, that's when I'll decide what to do with them.
And I'll be making more atc's (aceo's) for my 365 Art Card Project, because they really are the kind of art I do when no one's looking. Some of all of this may eventually float up to Etsy, and some to the bin, and some to dark and secret corners where I hoard things.
So there's my New Years Resolution, or Art Goals for the year—to continue my efforts to sell on Etsy, but always make mental, physical and temporal space for real art, art for arts sake, expressive art, art that has something to say, and art that explores ideas, mediums, methods, colours and thoughts.
Done! Goal making, that is. I have 364 days of action to get to.

Mary Sleigh – Embroidered African Textiles
My passion for materials and making by hand started as a child. I can still remember the excitement of going with my grandmother, an enthusiastic embroiderer, to choose threads and fabric in a needlework shop in Glasgow. It was an Aladdin's cave of colour, textures and drawers full of crisp fabrics smelling of new linen. That was the start of my lifelong love of fabric and stitch; an absorbing journey that continues with many unexpected destinations.

I am based in Whitley Bay on the North East coastline. I work in the mediums of textiles and mixed media, exploring an eclectic mix of vintage, recycled fabrics, ephemera and haberdashery ; incorporating embroidery and painting techniques to create original art, prints, accessories and cards.
I am fascinated by texture and the ephemeral changes to light, texture and colour by the elements on our sea and landscapes. I find inspiration in nature, all things vintage, nostalgia and the emotive power of nature intrigues me. I record initial inspiration with photography & sketches and allow the manipulation of my chosen medium and a spontaneous, experimental approach to develop the finished piece.

"Crazy's Sounding Pretty Good Right Now" In New "Sin City 2" Trailer
The newest trailer for Frank Miller and Robert Rodriguez's "Sin City: A Dame to Kill For" has debuted, and it's chock-full of new footage and teasers for what to expect from the anticipated sequel. The trailer offers the best look yet at Joseph Gordon-Levitt's character Johnny, the motivation behind Nancy's (Jessica Alba) actions in the film and much more.
RELATED: New "Sin City: A Dame to Kill For" Trailer: "Power is a Fragile Thing"
During a Q&A session on Reddit, Miller described Nancy's "Sin City: A Dame to Kill For" story as the conclusion to "That Yellow Bastard."
"We see a completely different side of Nancy as she is out for revenge," Miller said. "It's a completely different side of her. Jessica Alba in the intervening 8 years has increased 20 fold as an actress. And if there's a woman who goes and has two kids and you can still bend a fork on her stomach, she's in incredible shape. All I want to say about it is that it's her descent into hell, really. She's been everything from a molested child to lost the love of her life. And so she's really out to avenge Bruce Willis. And it turns out all of her skills as a dancer serve her extremely well in combat. Also, Jessica Alba looks great with a crossbow."
Check out the full trailer below.
Releasing August 22, "Sin City: A Dame to Kill For" also stars Powers Boothe, Josh Brolin, Rosario Dawson, Eva Green, Dennis Haysbert, Mickey Rourke, Bruce Willis and more.

It's easy to play the blame game when things don't go a certain way; however, Savage Group Consulting is eager to address that people need to take responsibility, and realise they may be the biggest barrier on the road to success.
Often, people like to look for outside reasons as to why they aren't succeeding; it's much easier for a person to blame someone or something else than themselves; a person can rationalise anything if they try hard enough. But if success is desired, a person should be looking at themselves and their life choices before moving the blame elsewhere.
It is often thought that a change in job or location will automatically make a person's life better, when in fact unless that person makes changes to the patterns underneath their life, nothing will change. Everyone has bad habits, but the difference is, successful people know how to and work hard to change those bad habits, rather than just moving the blame somewhere else.
Savage Group Consulting state that if a person wants to be successful and address the bad habits that are holding them back, then they need to change their lives from the inside out. Unless patterns on the inside are changed, nothing will improve on the outside. The firm goes on to state that success is within reach of everyone, but that people need to give themselves the permission to change habits that will result in happiness and success.
Savage Group Consulting is a marketing consultant firm that operates within the outsourced sales and marketing firm. They provide their clients with a cost-effective marketing solution that increases sales revenues through significant customer acquisitions and improve brand awareness through in-person communications.
The marketing consultants work with young professionals to help them recognise that anything is possible once a person takes responsibility and accepts that the unknown is littered with opportunities. The firm claim that unless a person acknowledges that they are the one holding themselves back, they will never seize the opportunities that are put in front of them.

Cooke, Govender, Watson, Armstrong, ODwyer, Keane, King, Tynan, Dunn, Donnelly: Sarcoidosis, alveolar ?-actin and pulmonary fibrosis. in QJM : monthly journal of the Association of Physicians 2013
Baraitser-Winter cerebrofrontofacial syndrome is caused by missense mutations in the cytoplasmic beta- and gamma-actin (show ACTG1 Proteins) genes ACTB and ACTG1 (show ACTG1 Proteins). We provide an overview of the clinical characteristics (including some novel findings in four recently diagnosed patients), diagnosis, management, mutation spectrum and genetic counselling.
The authors describe heterozygous ACTB deletions and nonsense and frameshift mutations in 33 individuals with developmental delay, apparent intellectual disability, increased frequency of internal organ malformations (including those of the heart and the renal tract), growth retardation, and a recognizable facial gestalt.
Data indicate AIM1 (absent in melanoma 1) as an actin binding protein and show that it regulates cytoskeletal remodeling and cell migration in prostate epithelial cells.
Case Report: gastric pericytoma harboring the exceptionally rare translocation t(7;12) resulting in ACTB-GLI1 (show GLI1 Proteins) gene fusion.
Data suggest that, in T-lymphocytes, nitric oxide generated by eNOS (show NOS3 Proteins) S-nitrosylates Cys374 on ACTB and thus regulates activation/recruitment of PRKCQ (show PRKCQ Proteins) at immune synapse; S-nitrosylation of beta-actin impairs actin binding to PFN1 (show PFN1 Proteins) and regulates protein transport in lamellipodia. (eNOS (show NOS3 Proteins) = nitric oxide synthase 3; ACTB = beta-actin; PRKCQ (show PRKCQ Proteins) = protein kinase C-theta (show PRKCQ Proteins); PFN1 (show PFN1 Proteins) = profilin-1 (show PFN1 Proteins))
Data indicate that the IQGAP1 N-terminal fragment spanning residues 1-191 (CHDF) binds to both F-actin and Ca(2+)/calmodulin.
Based on present and published dup7p22.1 patients we suggest that renal abnormalities might be an additional feature of the 7p22.1 microduplication syndrome.We also pinpoint the ACTB gene as the key gene affecting the 7p22.1 duplication syndrome phenotype.
We suggest that haploinsufficiency of ACTB may be responsible for the clinical features of patients with 7p22.1 microdeletions
crucial role of Glu270 in ADP-ribosylation of actin by Ia
Studies indicate that the process of megakaryocyte maturation and the formation of proplatelets are essential steps in the production of mature platelets and both depend heavily on the actin and microtubule cytoskeletons.
These results suggest a a novel genome-wide mechanism where the polymerase-associated beta-actin synergizes with NM1 to coordinate permissive chromatin with Pol I transcription, cell growth, and proliferation.
Two actin isoforms, beta- and gamma-actin (show ACTG1 Proteins), are crucial for slow, rapid, bulk, and overshoot endocytosis at large calyx-type synapses, and for slow endocytosis and bulk endocytosis at small hippocampal synapses.
Melatonin treatment for 1 h increased monomeric actin and decreased polymeric actin.
Disruption of the in vivo interaction of KIF11 (show KIF11 Proteins) with ZBP1 (show ZBP1 Proteins) delocalizes beta-actin mRNA and affects cell migration.
TIA proteins can function as long-term regulators of the ACTB mRNA metabolism in mouse and human cells.
Actin binding proteins associated with stress fiber or focal adhesion formation are overexpressed in the beta-actin knock-out cells and many of these contain CH-, LIM (show PDLIM5 Proteins)- or EFh- domains.
Absence of beta-actin severely hampers formation of the peripheral nervous system, due to defective neural crest migration.
Data indicate that ectopic phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-triphosphate (PIP3) elevation alone activated membranes to form actin-based structures whose behavior was similar to that of growth-cone-like "waves".
this work demonstrated that dendritic beta-actin messenger RNA and ribosomes are in a masked, neuron-specific form.
chorein interacts with beta-adducin (show ADD2 Proteins) and beta-actin.
These findings revise the existing spermiation model in Drosophila and suggest that somatic cells can actively oppose mechanical cell invasion attempts using calibrated F-actin dynamics in situ
Data suggest that the molecular and structural mechanism of actin polymerization by Spire should apply to other actin-binding proteins that contain WH2 domains in tandem.
actin filament subunits were directly modified by Mical on their conserved pointed-end, critical for filament assembly; Mical posttranslationally oxidized the methionine 44 residue within D-loop of actin, severing filaments and decreasing polymerization
essential cytoplasmic actin isoform
A mutational strategy is used to express monomeric 5C actin that is incapable of polymerization, able to bind skeletal myosin subfragment 1 and form a homogeneous complex, an ideal candidate for structural studies of actin complexes with motor proteins.
Taken together, these data can be explained by a model that associates components of the secretory machinery to the F-actin cortex through flexible links
biophysical analysis reveals that the open nucleotide pocket of the profilin (show PFN1 Proteins)/actin x-ray structure is unstable and closes in the absence of profilin (show PFN1 Proteins)
determination of the crystal structure of oxidized beta-actin to a resolution of 2.6 A; identification of oxidation of cysteine 272 in the crystallized actin dimer
This study showed that beta-actin, L32 (show RPL32 Proteins) ribosomal protein, and ATP5B (show ATP5B Proteins) proteins were the most stabily expressed genes in cryopreserved horse semen.
HnRNP-R (show HNRNPR Proteins)-mediated axonal beta-actin mRNA translocation plays an essential physiological role for axon growth and presynaptic differentiation.
Data show that shortly after anaphase onset oocytes and embryonic cells exhibit cortical waves of Rho activity and F-actin polymerization.
This gene encodes one of six different actin proteins. Actins are highly conserved proteins that are involved in cell motility, structure, and integrity. This actin is a major constituent of the contractile apparatus and one of the two nonmuscle cytoskeletal actins.

Buying Guide: The 10 best graphics cards in the world
Best graphics cards
On PC, choosing the right graphics card (GPU) for your build is the difference between barely pushing 30fps at the lowest settings and meeting the glorious 4K 60fps gold standard. Unfortunately, with so many cards to choose from (not to mention all the other selections you need to make when building a PC), buying a graphics card is all but a no-brainer.
The simple solution then is to go for the best of the best, the cream of the crop. In other words, the most expensive. For those of us who don't want to shell out the cost of a car on the hardware that powers one, the solution is to aim for the best bang-for-buck deal on a set budget, though it's important to consider, too, the software advantages of the GPU you're looking at.
Keep in mind, however, that you'll need to choose the rest of your parts wisely once you've found your perfect-match GPU. There's no point in sporting the latest Titan X if it's being bottlenecked by an old CPU or feeding a feeble screen when you'd be better off with one of AMD's low-cost GPUs or even Nvidia's upcoming GTX 1050.
With an ever-present VR future looming, virtual reality could also play a factor in your next graphics card purchase, so you'll want to make sure you can keep up with the minimum specs for that as well. That said, here are our picks for the best graphics cards around, VR-ready or otherwise.
1. EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 Founders Edition
Unparalleled performance
Stream Processors: 2,560 | Core Clock: 1,607MHz | Memory: 8GB GDDR5X | Memory Clock: 7,010MHz | Power Connectors: 1 x 6-pin, 1 x 8-pin | Length: 266.7mm | Outputs: 3 x DisplayPort, 1 x HDMI, 1 x DVI
EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 Founders Edition
If you want proper entry into 4K gaming, you're looking at it. With the launch of Nvidia's Pascal architecture, you can get the performance of two 980 Tis for a fraction of what you'd spend on a Titan X. Of course, no graphics card is perfect. This GTX 1080 falls prey to an early adoption tax in what Nvidia calls the "Founders Edition" model, based on the reference set by the company and manufactured by EVGA. While there are plenty of other GTX 1080 variants on the market now just begging to be purchased, you may even just want to wait for the GTX 1080 Ti.
2. Zotac GeForce GTX 980Ti AMP Extreme Edition
Nearly 1080 power without the 1080 cost
Stream Processors: 2816 | Core Clock: 1253MHz | Memory: 6GB | Memory Clock: 7220MHz | Power Connectors: 2 x 8-pin | Length: 267mm | Outputs: 3 x DisplayPort, 1 x HDMI, 1 x DVI
Zotac GeForce GTX 980Ti AMP Extreme Edition
Though it can't match the GTX 1080 in terms of video memory (6GB versus 8GB GDDR5X), the GTX 980Ti offers a higher clock speed. And, with the right amount of overclocking, it can even beat that card. Cards with the "AMP" moniker usually mean business, and this card lives up to its name. It'll let you game in resolutions up to 4K, even if can't reach that glorious 60 fps standard at that pixel count. The 980Ti AMP Extreme Edition may be better value than the GTX 1080 Founders Edition, but it's far from cheap, costing around the same as a budget (or entry level, mid-range) gaming PC.
3. Gigabyte Radeon R9 Fury X
Uses an all-in-one liquid cooling system and new High-Bandwidth Memory
Stream Processors: 4096 | Core Clock: 1050MHz | Memory: 4GB | Memory Clock: 1000MHz | Power Connectors: 2 x 8-pin | Length: 195mm | Outputs: 3 x DisplayPort, 1 x HDMI
Gigabyte Radeon R9 Fury X
If you're urging for a GPU that does it all, the R9 Fury X was once the best AMD had to offer, though it's now being challenged by the RX 400-series GPUs. On the upside, the Fury X can easily handle anything at 1080p and in most cases even 1440p.
Hauling an all-in-one liquid cooling system and the latest high-bandwidth memory technology may seem like a heavy workload, but Gigabyte's Radeon R9 Fury X pulls it off all the same. There is a catch, however, to what appears to be a future-proof gaming spectacle. Not only will you need space for an extra radiator-fan combo a la the liquid cooler, but 4GB of HBM memory is awfully limited compared to the 8GB of GDDR5X you can get with the GTX 1070 for a similar price.
4. Sapphire Radeon R9 Nano
Tiny graphics card packs a big punch
Stream Processors: 4096 | Core Clock: 1000MHz | Memory: 4GB | Memory Clock: 1000MHz | Power Connectors: 1 x 8-pin | Length: 152mm | Outputs: 1 x DisplayPort, 1 x HDMI, 2 x DVI
Building a small form-factor PC no longer requires a huge power sacrifice. In fact, the Fiji-based Sapphire Radeon R9 Nano is short enough to squeeze into the tiniest of mini-ITX cases – compromise be damned. And, for an AMD GPU of yesteryear, it's pretty efficient too, boasting 4GB of next-gen HBM memory with the same number of texture units and ROPs as the full-size Fury X. Sure, the clock speed is 5% lower, but because the power envelope drops to just 175W, you won't need a hardy power supply to boot.

5. MSI GeForce 1070 Gaming X
Titan X performance at a GTX 980 cost
Stream Processors: 1,920 | Core Clock: 1,607MHz | Memory: 8GB GDDR5 | Memory Clock: 8,108MHz | Power Connectors: 1 x 6-pin, 1 x 8-pin | Length: 279mm | Outputs: 3 x DisplayPort 1.4, 1 x HDMI 2.0, 1 x DVI
We all know that 1440p is the new 1080p, and so does Nvidia. That's why it's taken the new Pascal architecture and devised the GTX 1070, complete with a 1,607MHz base overclock and 8GB of 8,108MHz, GDDR5 RAM. What's more, this VR-ready card is more powerful than a Titan X for a fraction of the price. Still, while you'll be able to play everything at the highest settings at humblebrag-worthy frame rates at either 1080p or 1440p resolution, the £410 (around $584 or AUS$792) price tag of the MSI's 'Founders Edition' Gaming X card is notably more expensive than what we'll see in the coming months from AIBs, or add-in boards.

6. Sapphire Radeon R9 Tri-X 390X
AMD's card has the GTX 980 in its sights
Stream Processors: 2816 | Core Clock: 1055MHz | Memory: 8GB | Memory Clock: 6000MHz | Power Connectors: 2 x 8-pin | Length: 308mm | Outputs: 1 x DisplayPort, 1 x HDMI, 2 x DVI
Sapphire Radeon R9 Tri-X 390X
When it comes to cost, the Radeon R9 Tri-X 390X sits somewhere between Nvidia's GTX 970 and 980 cards. It often gets the better of the former card, though the 970 performs better in some games. The Tri-X 390X produces blistering frame rates at resolutions up to 2,560 x 1,440 with all graphic details dialled up to 10. Featuring 2,816 stream processors and a core clock speed of 1,055MHz, it doesn't quite pack the muscle required for 4K gaming unless you're playing lesser demanding titles.
7. MSI GeForce GTX 970 Gaming Edition
Value meets performance in Nvidia's capable card
Stream Processors: 1664 | Core Clock: 1140MHz | Memory: 4GB | Memory Clock: 7010MHz | Power Connectors: 1 x 6-pin, 1 x 8-pin | Length: 269mm | Outputs: 1 x DisplayPort, 1 x HDMI, 2 x DVI
MSI GeForce GTX 970 Gaming Edition
A variant of one of the most popular graphics cards around, the GTX 970 Gaming edition is a 1080p monster. You could even get away with gaming at 2,560 x 1,440, though you'll have to temper expectations when it comes to 4K. Featuring 1,664 stream processors, a core clock of 1,140MHz and 4GB of memory, the GTX 970 offers the mainstream performance you may be looking for without breaking the bank.
8. AMD Radeon RX 480
Virtual reality on a budget
Stream processors: 2,304 | Core Clock: 1,120MHz | Memory: 8GB GDDR5 | Memory Clock: 8,000MHz | Power connections: 1x 6-pin | Length: 241mm | Outputs: 1 x HDMI, 3 x DisplayPort
Think you need an expensive GTX 1080 to enjoy VR games on an Oculus Rift or HTC Vive? Think again. Considering its low price point, AMD's Radeon RX 480 is an impressive performer at 1080p and, in some cases, even 1440p. While it may not reach 60fps, the holy grail of PC gaming, in every game at the highest settings, the RX 480 does manage to push out a few frames over 30 with the graphics cranked all the way up in games like Rise of the Tomb Raider and Ashes of the Singularity – both of which notably run using the latest DirectX 12 API from Microsoft. Moreover, if you're interested in overclocking with AMD's new Wattman utility, the RX 480 can move faster than a GTX 980. For the price, it's unparalleled.

9. Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060
One of Nvidia's best price-to-performance cards ever
Stream Processors: 1,280 | Core Clock: 1,506MHz | Memory: 8GB GDDR5 | Memory Clock: 8,000MHz | Power Connectors: 1 x 6-pin | Length: 249.5mm | Outputs: 1 x DisplayPort, 1 x HDMI, 1 x Dual Link-DVI
Though it might bear resemblance to the GTX 1070 and 1080, the £275/$300 GTX 1060 Founder's Edition is more aligned with Nvidia's more expensive GeForce 980. Thanks to AMD's competitively priced RX 480, which promises both 1080p and VR gaming at an aggressive price point, Nvidia was hurried into launching a similar offering. Enter the GTX 1060: a mid-range graphics card that can handle just about anything at a full HD resolution and even some titles at 1440p without too much of an impact on the frame rate. With most of us still clinging onto sub-4K resolution TVs and monitors, the GTX 1060 gives PC gamers a sweet spot absent the need to upgrade your displays.
Read the full review: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060
10. EVGA GeForce GTX 750Ti SC
A graphics chip that's super (and super cheap)
Stream Processors: 640 | Core Clock: 1176MHz | Memory: 2GB | Memory Clock: 5400MHz | Power Connectors: None | Length: 170mm | Outputs: 1 x HDMI, 1 x DVI, 1 x VGA
EVGA GeForce GTX 750Ti SC
Based on Nvidia's Maxwell architecture, the GTX 750Ti SC is an affordable card that still packs the latest technology. This entry-level offering is still up to the task of playing the latest games if you're happy with playing on Low or Medium quality settings at 1080p resolution, and because it's small it's easy to drop into a basic PC to give it some extra graphical grunt. Just don't expect it to work miracles.

Top Five Reasons NOT to get stressed-out at Christmas
5. Spending time with friends and family shouldn't be a chore. I say shouldn't because we all have that one sister/brother/cousin/uncle that says bizarre and evil things over a handful of rum balls. This shouldn't be a chore, these things should be cherished and remembered for next year when you can say, "Hey, remember last year when Uncle Saul accidentally addressed Aunt Selma's edible undies to Grandma?"
3. The Christmas movie releases are fun. So you've spent eight hours cooking a frozen turkey, Grandma Ethel embarrassed the entire family by chewing up edible undies that Uncle Saul accidentally gave her, and there's nothing left on television but football. The lasagna was devoured in record time and everyone's passed out. The movies are open – and usually great movies come out on Christmas… and they have nachos!
2. The Christmas lights: While you're out and about going to the movies you can always see the Christmas lights. It's always a joy to see those wonderful blinky red, green, and blue lights that light the cold night air. Happy Santas and snowmen waiving joyfully from outside the houses, thanking various gods they aren't inside with the snoring masses… Above all, it's nice to remember it's their light bill, not yours.
1. And the best reason not to get stressed out for Christmas -- it only lasts 24 hours ☺

'You Can't Survive Anymore': Tunisia Protests Rising Prices and Taxes
On Monday, a week after the new budget took effect, protests erupted in more than 10 towns across the country.
In Tebourba, an ancient town about 20 miles west of Tunis, the capital, a 45-year-old man, identified by residents as Khomsi el-Yerfeni, died on Monday night during protests at which the police fired tear gas. Witnesses told the news media they believed the man had been struck by a security vehicle, but the Interior Ministry said in a statement that he had had chronic shortness of breath and that his body showed no signs of violence or of having been run over.
The air in Tebourba was still thick with traces of tear gas on Tuesday. Trash bins were overturned. Police officers were out in large numbers.
Akrem, a 27-year-old protester who declined to give his surname because he fears the police, said unemployment and misery were rife in Tebourba. "With 500 dinars a month" — about $200 — "you can't survive anymore, and our salaries don't go beyond 400 dinars," he said.
The minimum wage in Tunisia is about $160 a month, and even a small family would realistically need at least $240 a month to get by, economists say. Inflation is running at more than 6 percent, putting further pressure on household budgets.
In Kasserine, Raja Jassoumi, 33, a project manager with a nonprofit, said people had to be budget-conscious even when buying a loaf of bread, "so when you announce the increase of prices on fuel and other goods, it is the straw that broke the camel's back."
Khalifa Chibani, an Interior Ministry spokesman, said 44 people had been arrested overnight across the country. He blamed looters for the disorder.
"What happened had nothing to do with democracy and protests against price hikes," he said in an interview on Tuesday. "Yesterday protesters burned down two police stations. They looted shops, banks and damaged property in many cities."
Tear gas was also fired on protesters in the city of Kasserine. In Sidi Bouzid, the hometown of the Arab Spring, and in Meknassy, a neighboring city, young jobless people have been marching to protest the high cost of living and the lack of jobs. Several people have been arrested in Tunis and in the coastal cities of Sousse and Bizerte.
Protests are hardly new: In November, a mother of five killed herself by setting herself on fire in the town of Sejnane to protest her desperate economic plight. But public anger has festered anew because of the price increases.
On Tuesday in Tunis, young people gathered on Habib Bourguiba Avenue, a main boulevard and the site of large protests that in 2011 toppled the dictator Zine el-Abidine Ben Ali, who had been in power for 23 years.
Many wore T-shirts with the slogan "Manich Msamah" (I Will Not Forgive), an anticorruption movement that began in 2015. Others bore the slogan "What Are We Waiting For?" and the image of a ticking clock.
"Wherever you go, in a shop or in a drugstore, every price is higher," said Wael Naouar, a protester. "It is impossible for people to live with dignity today."
Olfa Lamloum, the Tunisia country manager for International Alert, a nonprofit that seeks peaceful resolution to conflicts, said she worried "that we have the same narrative as before the revolution."
"The protesters in marginalized areas are portrayed by the authorities and mainstream media as looters or criminals," she said, but they are expressing "a real social despair."
Safwan M. Masri, the executive vice president for global centers and global development at Columbia University, and author of the book "Tunisia: An Arab Anomaly," said the new protests were the latest manifestation of an age-old problem: "huge economic disparity between the coastal and interior regions of the country."
He cited as a precedent bread riots that took place in the country in 1983.
"I.M.F.-mandated structural adjustments ignored such inequalities back in the 1980s, and they do so again now," he said. "Successive governments have consistently failed to address this issue and to invest in developing the central and southern regions."
Leila Ghrairi, 51, a civil servant who came to support the protesters in Tunis, said she was not worried about another Arab Spring.
"I don't think it can lead to a new revolution, because we have still some hope that this kind of protests can start a dialogue with the government," she said. "But the violence of the police needs to stop."

Clenzoil solution is a broad based "uses" product. By formulation it is a metal cleaner, lubricant, protectant, rust-inhibitor that can be applied to any known metallurgical surfaces that respond to lubrication and rust-protection. The environmental performance standards that Clenzoil will function in are quite varied and quite unique to this product. Clenzoil will work in -54F with sub-peaks to -65F just as it will function in temperatures above +350F with peaks over +400F.It's a hybrid product, which means that it contains both petroleum distillates and synthetic components. It is this unique formulation that allows it to work on both exotic metals as well as natural materials such as wood, leather, bone, horn and laminates.
Once Clenzoil is applied to a surface, it will be absorbed several microns into the surface to provide a lubrication base that has a substantial "carrying" capacity, while at the same time providing a oxidation (protection) barrier that will greatly diminish the likelihood of metallurgical surface rust, even in highly humid environments. The solvency component in Clenzoil can be varied through modified formulation for the specific application it will be used for. However, in most instances solvency is a desired component of the formula due to the fact that it imparts both additional "carrying" capacity of the finished blend as well as providing the associated process of cleaning or "preparing" the surface so that the lubrication component can more effectively and efficiently perform to its desired standard.
Clenzoil will function in both fresh and salt-water exposure while not becoming gummy or snotty and at the same time avoiding spoilage in those wet environments. It has also been used and formulated for a variety of specific and non-specific tasks across a myriad of other non-military industries as well; in fact one of the first industrial users of Clenzoil was the US Atomic Energy Commission who in the early 1950s identified Clenzoil as the only known product to stand up against the extreme and harsh corrosive conditions under which it operated at that time. Clenzoil has also been successfully used to not only maintain but actually rehabilitate expensive equipment and machinery, factory and heavy equipment exposed to catastrophic fire, has been used to prep and protect heavy and light equipment before it leaves the factory on its way to the customer or end user, it is used by marine diesel companies and mechanics to clean and maintain fuel injectors and the tools required to work on them, wood laminating companies use Clenzoil to clean and prep their molds and trays as do many other companies involved with injection molding, it is used offshore on oil and drilling rigs in the harsh salt-water environment, etc.

A China Reading List
By Mike Cormack
片荒的朋友去看影评,书荒的朋友不妨看看本期Last Words为大家推荐的书单。此次为大家罗列出了近年外国作者著作的有关我国的作品,相信大家看后一定会有不一样的感受和思路。首先介绍由英国作家马丁•雅克 (Martin Jacques)所写的《当中国统治世界》,这位作者学贯东西,是中国人民大学访问学者以及伦敦经济学院亚洲研究中心客座研究员。曾在多所大学任教,创办英国智库Demos,亦有丰富的新闻从业经历。马丁•雅克在书中探讨了中国经济发展的模式,从欧洲崛起探讨到亚洲国家的发展,而后考查了东亚国家与西方世界的不同,并得出结论:东亚不可能遵从西方的发展模式,东亚将保持自己的特色来发展经济,而东亚最重要的国家是中国,中国将走出自己的发展之路。
"中国文化的一大特点是,中国人的价值观在本质上是世俗的。"这句话出自美国作家亨利•基辛格所著的《论中国》一书。作者以一位资深外交家和思想家的独特视角,分析和梳理了中国自鸦片战争以来的外交传统,从围棋文化与孙子兵法中探寻中国人的战略思维模式,特别是试图揭示新中国成立以来,中国外交战略的制定和决策机制,以及对" 一边倒"的外交政策、抗美援朝、中美建交、三次台海危机等等重大外交事件来龙去脉的深度解读。作为历史的亲历者,基辛格博士还在书中记录了自己与毛泽东、邓小平等几代中国领导人的交往。
除上述两本书之外,值得一读的还有前IMF中国部主任普拉萨德(Eswar Prasad)剖析人民币崛起的书《Gaining Currency》,普利策奖得主张彦(Ian Johnson)介绍中国宗教近况的著作《中国灵魂:宗教在后毛泽东时代的回归》,亚洲问题专家汤姆米勒(Tom Miller)对中国在亚洲地位的观察《中国的亚洲梦》等等有着深入见解的书。祝福各位读者在书香中度过一个愉快的十月。
Number of books on China seems to be increasing prodigiously as the country becomes ever more important. Chinese history, business, economy, culture, religion, infrastructure, environment – they've all been covered by excellent writers who have spent considerable time on their beat. Here then is a list of books I've read which I think are important. Ninety percent are non-fiction, simply because that's what I prefer reading these days and because there's so much to learn about China - a truly endless subject.
When China Rules the World
By Martin Jacques
This book is the Ground Zero of books by foreigners who think China's ascendency will turn out to be good for the world. It's probably not a coincidence that it has been written by the former editor of Marxism Today. The book is superbly researched and referenced, but its extrapolations seem naïve in the extreme (it was published in 2008 before the Chinese debt explosion) and its political assumptions on China's benevolence haven't played out either. Nonetheless, it's an important book because it precisely articulates what many see as China's importance as rival power locus.
On China
By Henry Kissinger
This is mainly about Chinese diplomacy, particularly its interactions with the USA. The book is interesting enough, but the really fascinating details come when Kissinger discusses his own time as National Security Advisor and then as Secretary of State. His direct interactions with Chinese leaders, particularly Zhou Enlai and Deng Xiaoping, are enormously illuminating. Kissinger includes direct chunks of dialogue, which demonstrate his own obsequiousness and shrewdness on part of Zhou. As an insider account, it's unbeatable.
Gaining Currency
By Eswar Prasad
A country's currency is to large degree a synonym for its economic strength, so little wonder that there is increasing interest in the RMB. Prasad was the head of IMF's China division, so he possesses a huge amount of knowledge and experience to bring to bear. Starting with a survey of China's money through ages, from the first uses of paper currency to founding of the People's Bank in 1948, Prasad illuminates the conflicting desires of China's monetary policy makers. Though the renminbi is not freely traded, giving the Chinese government great control, it still wishes for a greater international role for its currency as befits a great nation.
The Souls of China
By Ian Johnson
This book examines the reemergence of religion in China. First it recounts the history of faith in China – folk religions, Daoism, Buddhism, Islam and Christianity, up to the imposition of state atheism after 1949. Johnson then introduces a number of people involved in various religions around China and examines their pursuit of a more meaningful life. Usually they are searching for meaning, or they are searching for answers. Johnson shows us that hunger for something greater than oneself is probably inherent and is causing many Chinese to turn to religion as they search.
China's Asian Dream
By Tom Miller
This is an excellent survey of China's Belt and Road initiative, examining its effects on various countries and regions, from Central Asia to the South China Sea. Miller has spent substantial shoe-leather on research and fills the book with excellent color and detail. The author is senior analyst for the economic research institute Gavekal Research and managing editor of China Economic Quarterly and illustrates the book with facts, local interviews and data points.
The Party
By Richard McGregor
Everything you wanted to know about how the Party in China operates.
China's Economy
By Arthur Kroeber
This book is likely to be the set text on Chinese economy for the next decade. Written by Gavekal founder Arthur Kroeber, the book takes the reader through current key areas (agriculture, industry, urbanization and the financial system) and evokes the future with chapters on "The Emerging Consumer Society" and "Changing the Growth Model". For those seeking an overview of China's economy, there are few better starts.
Party Members
By Arthur Meursault
Foreigners sometimes get overawed with China – its history, culture, the pace of economic development and so on. So it comes as a pleasant change to read an uproarious scathing satire. This book is bilious and savage and all the better for it. It is, however, for the strong of stomach only – it is based on a central metaphor that is crass and crude, though sometimes devastatingly funny. You will never look at KFC in the same way.
Behind The Red Door
By Richard Burger
Burger takes the reader through a whirlwind tour of Chinese sexual attitudes and practices, from the permissive Tang to the repressive Maoist eras, dividing chapters into useful sections like "The Family", "Homosexuality", "Dating and Marriage" and "The Sex Trade". The book is a humane and empathetic reflection on people's most intimate moments.
Designated Drivers
By GE Anderson
This book is an acute dissection of the Chinese auto industry. Anderson shows how government departments and agencies compete, conflict and (occasionally) agree to a strategic policy and analyzes both the industrial context and policy formulation. There are also case histories of joint ventures (some partnerships being more successful than others) and independents which make up the modern auto sector. Some may find the policy section a little dry, but the case histories are fascinating. (Did you know that Geely bought its first factory from a prison?)
There are many other great books out there. Happy reading!

Fake news has become big news in Germany. Facebook in particular is being accused of facilitating the spread of hoaxes and misinformation. According to government officials and media commentators, this fake news could influence Germany's elections later this year.
A Breitbart article claiming that a mob of Muslim immigrants burned down a church in the city of Dortmund is held up as an example of fake news. 'Fake news: how Breitbart manipulates facts and lets a mob riot', said one headline. 'Politicians are alarmed', the report continues, pointing out that the head of the electoral body Bundeswahlleiter, which oversees elections in Germany, thinks fake news could impact how people vote.
Concern about fake news really gained momentum following the US presidential elections. In December, Thomas Oppermann of Germany's Social Democratic Party suggested Facebook should face fines of up to €500,000 for posts containing fake news or hate speech that aren't removed within 24 hours. German justice minister Heiko Maas has called for tougher EU regulations: social-media owners should be held criminally liable for failing to remove hate speech, he says. Der Spiegel says officials have discussed opening a Defence Centre Against Disinformation.
But what, exactly, would be banned? What would Facebook and other sites be forced to take down? What is fake news? It is striking that in almost all German reports on this issue, the English term 'fake news' is used, as if this were a new phenomenon, thus requiring a new phrase. In the past, when a German newspaper or magazine published false information, the German words Falschmeldung or Zeitungsente would have been used. One of the most famous cases of Falschmeldung was the publication of the fake Hitler's diaries in 1982. There have been countless others, including TV broadcaster ARD, who had to apologise for a series of incorrect reports about the conflict in Ukraine. Germany's adoption of the English term feeds a sense of alarm; it implies that Germany is under threat from a novel phenomenon, and one that largely comes from without, with Mark Zuckerberg, Putin and Trump held up as instigators.
It is precisely because of its malleability that 'fake news' is a dangerous concept. If a Defence Centre Against Disinformation were only to concern itself with plain and imminently dangerous lies – like the one that spread after the Berlin terror attack in December, when a WhatsApp message warned of an imminent new attack on a shopping centre in Neukölln – then it wouldn't actually be needed. For it is already an offence in Germany to spread such immediately threatening misinformation.

We Got A Sneak Preview Of The Sydney Fringe Festival's 'Silent Theatre'
The largest independent arts festival in NSW celebrates the work of local independent artists, art makers and performers.
Kerri Glasscock, the Festival Director for this year's Sydney Fringe Festival, has a bit of a mad idea. She's installing four teams of writers and creatives in adjoining hotel rooms for a night and giving them a task: to write small, intimate scenes set in the rooms. Later, teams of actors and creatives will come together in the rooms and on their adjoining balconies to perform the scenes, while an audience catches glimpses from the street below, or listens in via headphones.
It's a wild idea called Silent Theatre, and it's happening at this year's festival. It sounds a little like a live-action Rear Window, but played out on the streets of Newtown and inside the Urban Newtown on Enmore Road. Junkee caught up with Glasscock for a sneak peek into the planning behind Silent Theatre, which so far features creatives including Glasscock and Michael Pidcock, author, screenwriter and man-about-town Benjamin Law, and a "surprise musical guest".
Glasscock is so invigorated by Silent Theatre it's infectious, and she's eager to sing the praises of the creatives keen to jump on board this risky, site-specific work, as well as the site itself.
"We love The Urban at Newtown," she tells Junkee. "They're really a community-focused hotel and business, and they're really excited about bringing the community to them even if they're not staying there. And that fits so well with our ethos at Fringe. We're about our community. We're about engaging our neighbours, and getting people out of their houses and away from Netflix, and out onto the street, so to speak."
In just a few short minutes, Glasscock has us more excited for Silent Theatre than just about anything else on offer in the Sydney arts scene this year.
Junkee: So let's chat about Silent Theatre, which sounds pretty amazing.
Kerri Glasscock: It's a bit fun, isn't it?
Sounds great! Tell me how you developed the idea?
It kind of started last year: we ran a project at the same hotel called Chain Play. We put four playwrights into the hotel on four consecutive nights, and asked them to write a script set in Newtown. And they would write a quarter each and then leave the script for the next playwright to come in, and they would continue it on. And then we did a staged reading with a bunch of actors and myself for audiences at the end of the week. And it was so cool!
People loved it so much that we wanted to carry on the idea this year, but take it to a whole new level. So that's how we came up with the idea of the Silent Theatre. The guys at the Urban Hotel were so supportive and keen, which is so great.
So what we're doing this year is we've got some playwrights, some creatives, and a musician to all spend a night in adjoining rooms, and they're each going to write a story set in that room, and then we're going to work it up with a group of actors and creatives, and then we're going to perform it two weeks later, over three nights.
The idea is that they'll be intimate scenes set in hotel rooms, but audiences will be able to hang out on the street and catch glimpses of what's happening in the rooms and on the balconies — because they've all got balconies — and listen in to the conversations via headphones. I love this idea of you standing on a bustling street like Enmore Road and you're watching and hearing really tiny intimate conversations amongst all the hubbub of the city. So that's kind of the premise behind it, really.
So what's the appeal of site-specific theatre for you?
I guess it's the opportunity to do things differently and to take down that safety net that audiences often feel in a very secure theatre space. I think, certainly I've got a history of working in very unusual spaces, I mean I work in the two 505 [theatres] and we started in a warehouse space in Surry Hills. And one of the best things about that original space was that, by the time people had taken the journey up the five flights of stairs in this crazy old warehouse, they were totally disarmed of any preconceptions of what they would experience that night. And so what it does is it leaves audiences very open to going anywhere and being up for anything.
I think when you're able to place them out of the comfort of a raked seat or an air-conditioned space in a quiet theatre, then already they're up for an adventure, and already you have an audience who are open and willing to go to different places. And for me, that's what really excites me about site-specific work because you've got an audience who are keen to just participate and be active in their journey with you. They're not just passively sitting in a theatre watching.
One of the things that really interested us was this idea of a public/private theatre. What's your intention in playing with that dichotomy?
I think for me it's because, if you live in Sydney as most of our audience and artists do, you spend your life rushing around in this very noisy community, and it's very easy to overlook even the things that happen just next door. And I think if you go into a deeper social commentary, there's crazy hardships and awful things maybe happening even a few doors down that no one knows about. Something that interests me is the ability to remind us that we are all people, and we're all living next door to each other, and no matter how hectic and loud the world gets, we really are just all people getting through life.
I think the ability to highlight those very intimate and real and raw moments of humanity — and they don't need to be serious and dark and gloomy, they can be hilarious as well. Benjamin Law is writing one of our pieces and I'm sure that's going to be fantastically funny — but the ability just to connect with a very human moment in time is important, and I'm all for encouraging our audiences to do that while they're standing on a busy road in the inner-west.
What's your favourite thing about Fringe Festival, as its director?
The favourite thing I have about my role and the festival, in general, is the ability to provide a platform and to facilitate all this great work. I mean that is a tremendous privilege. And one of the best things about my job is I can do it in crazy, wacky ways because it provides Sydney artists with a way to break out of the box, and to do things that they never get the opportunity to do at any other time of the year. And that's very exciting.

Silent Theatre will premiere as part of the Sydney Fringe Festival, from 19-21 September 2017. You can find out more and book tickets here.

We are really confident that 2016 will be a stellar year for all of us. We can't wait to see all our plans implemented. The industry will be amazed at what OfficeList was able to do in just one year.
Miami Beach, FL (PRWEB) December 28, 2015
As 2015 winds to an end, OfficeList is reflecting on a successful year that brought upon several key changes within the company. They've expanded by leaps and bounds since the year began and hope to grow even more in the coming year.
One of the most important changes the company made was starting a new type of linear management. This made employees much happier and relaxed, which has resulted in increased productivity under this type of management.
Another key development that OfficeList made this year was listing several new centers with both new and existing partners. They've increased their total number of office providers by about 20, which gives customers plenty of new options when searching for office space.
This year marked the biggest deal in OfficeList's history in Florida, which was a huge accomplishment for the company. Traditionally, Florida is a tough state in which to generate revenue because there's a lot of competition, but they prevailed over other companies and closed the deal.
"2015 was a turning point in OfficeList's history," said CEO Jorge Pena. "We redesigned the company from the ground up and we are really confident that 2016 will be a stellar year for all of us. We can't wait to see all our plans implemented. The industry will be amazed at what OfficeList was able to do in just one year."
Pena added that the company also made some other changes from within that led to their success in 2015. They expanded their IT department, bringing in several experienced professionals who updated the OfficeList.com website and made it more user-friendly.
The new IT specialists are continuing to run some tests to see how they can improve the website even more for visitors. They've also started using state-of-the-art technology that tracks website traffic and helps OfficeList reach out to clients in a more timely manner.
As an added bonus for employees, the company also changed and upgraded all of their office equipment. These days, their phone, internet, and computers are all working better than ever, and employees have more time to help their clients.
In November, OfficeList developed partnerships with real estate brokers and have been expanding these partnerships ever since. As the new year approaches, the company is excited to reach markets that they haven't worked in before.
OfficeList's goals for 2016 include increasing registrations/visits to their website as well as increasing revenue and closing ratio. They're also striving to enhance their website even more with the help of the new IT team.
It's been a banner year for OfficeList, and the company looks primed for continued success in 2016.

Phin began his career over a decade ago as a runner on an ill fated feature. He has since worked in acquisition & distribution, production, post-production and finance.
He was one of the four producers to start London's 369 Productions in 2011 and formed Bad Penny with Harriet and Daz in 2014 to compliment the work that 369 were doing.
His last feature was 'The Unbeatables' from Academy Award wining director Juan Jose Campanella, starring Rupert Grint and Rob Brydon.
Phin has been knee deep in Yorkshire mud for the last two months producing Bad Penny's debut feature 'Mad To Be Normal'. After which he'll begin work in earnest preparing for feature number 2 'Fish Without Bicycles'.

Woman Files Suit Against Wal-Mart For Injured Caused By Trailer Door
Brent Adams
Comments (0)
An Illinois woman has filed suit against a Wal-Mart in Highland, Illinois on June 23 in the Circuit Court of Madison County, Illinois after she sustained personal injuries alleging that the property was not kept in a condition that was reasonably safe.
According to Maureen Neal, on November 5, 2007, she was at the Wal-Mart to assist one of her students in unloading merchandise from a Wal-Mart trailer when a door to the trailer suddenly swung closed on her leg and foot with no warning.
According to Neal, she was owed a duty by Wal-Mart to exercise ordinary care in order to insure that the property was reasonably safe for those lawfully on the property to use.
Neal also alleges negligence on the part of Wal-Mart due to its failure to properly secure the doors to the trailer and failure to warn her of the trailer doors not being secure.
Neal alleges that because of the injury she has been and will continue to be caused to incur medical expenses, lose income, sustain pain and suffering, and suffer from a disability. She seeks damages in excess of $100,000 plus costs.
