A few years back I wrote about Appa's love for music and the range of songs and music he loved to listen to. Apart from loving to listen to music from some of the greats, Appa was a singer in his own right too. He did not have any formal education in music but he had a good ear for beats, tunes and rhythms. He could whistle tunes effortlessly as well.
When he remembered his business tour days fondly, he would always tell me about how he absolutely loved the music vibe of the African countries and how it was very normal to see a native walk on the road and suddenly burst into song and dance spontaneously as if the universe whispered in his ear and he had heard the call.
What Appa probably never realised about himself is he was exactly that way too. He would just spontaneously burst into song, sometimes even do a funny hips and arms swinging jig if the song that came to his mind was an upbeat dance number, always wearing a big grin, eyes bright with mirth. I was very used to this as a part of my day to day life and it never failed to bring a grin to my face to see the softer and fun side of my father. I'm the only one of the five of us who went to Sabarimalai with him and many a times during that pilgrimage, Appa would spontaneously begin to sing a devotional song about Lord Ayyappa. Before you knew it, the entire group going for the pilgrimage would join. This happened in train compartments, while walking on the paths leading to Sabarimalai, in the resting areas surrounded by forests. I didn't quite realise it then but today when I close my eyes and recall those devotional songs, I am always transported to those surreal moments I spent with Appa.
One of Appa's favourite songs was "Baharon Phool Barsao" from the 1966 movie Suraj. It is one of those evergreen songs that to this day is a favourite during weddings. Appa hummed this song to Amma all the time, much to her embarrassment and secret pleasure! Growing up, we were all used to Appa suddenly breaking into this song, his deep and soulful voice filling the air with the beautiful words and rhythm.
My eldest sister Bala though has a very different experience. In transition between two houses, there was a period when Bala had to travel a long distance to go to school and Appa would accompany her back and forth in the public BEST bus. Once settled into their seats, Appa would inevitably almost on a daily basis burst into song and proceed to sing "Baharon Phool Barsao" at the top of his voice in the bus. With the rest of the passengers staring at them both, there was many a day Bala wished she had the ability to disappear or to simply deny any relation with this eccentric man sitting next to her singing away without a care in the world.
Over a decade has gone by since any of us last heard Appa sing. But the beauty of memories is that all any of us need to do is think of this song and on cue, Appa's voice plays in our soul. And we find ourselves yearning for even those embarrassing moments when Appa burst into song at the most inopportune occasions.

SINCE IT ARRIVED to Irish shores in 2008, Movember has grown into a veritable phenomenon. The fundraiser sees men abstain from shaving to raise both money and awareness for prostate cancer.
It's a good thing!
Even if you support the sentiment, however, the initiative can inspire some pretty conflicted emotions.
1. Horror
For every thick, luxurious moustache that blooms during Movember, there are a whole load of Justin Bieber-esque ratstaches in its place.
Charity or no charity, there is no place for that in society.
2. Inadequacy
If you're a guy who can't grow facial hair, Movember can bring about feelings of inadequacy or envy.
Colleagues and acquaintances urging you to participate in the event don't know your secret shame and you come off like a spoilsport when you politely decline. At least you have the sense not to grow a ratstache, though.
3. Unbridled joy
For facial hair aficionados, it's basically like Christmas and you walk around with heart-shaped eyes for the month.
Ah, bliss.
4. Frustration
On the other hand, if you're not a beard fan and your significant other proposes participating in it, you will have to begrudgingly support him and possibly put up with beard rash.
5. Nausea
Deep down, you know it's all for a worthy cause and you want to support it, but you can't help it.
The sight of this just makes you feel ill.
6. Irritation
If you're a year-round beard owner, the relentless stream of, "Are you doing Movember?" can do your head in. You're not a blow in like them. You're committed to the beard cause year round.
Educate yourself.
7. Resentment
Repeated pleas for donations can lead to a smidge of resentment. Especially when it's sort of a lazy exercise.
8. Regret
And if you're doing Movember, you may grow to regret it and wish you had chosen something easier. Like a marathon, for instance.
Godspeed, everyone.

More security at the Carnival
A stronger presence of security staff is high on the agenda. This extra service will cost an estimated 9000 euros. Cologne's fire service also wishes to bulk up their numbers with volunteers. There will be a higher presence of security in areas with large crowds, "where the necessary social control may not be possible", announced City Manager, Guido Kahlen, at a presentation on the carnival's security plan.
Around 360,000 euros will be invested in security according to initial outlines. This will include mobile lighting masts to illuminate dark, potentially dangerous corners. The city has set aside 160,000 euros for these as well as additional blockades.
A security point will be set up in the city center where women can report to in case of an emergency, according to the city's Equal Opportunities Officer, Christine Kronenberg. Social workers, psychologists and other helpers will be there to offer support.
This year's street parade - the highlight of the carnival season - is a crucial test for the city. "We realize these carnival days represent a kind of trial for us, to show we've taken appropriate action following the terrible events on New Year's Eve", says Kahlen.
Over a million visitors flock to the cathedral city of Cologne on the river Rhine to soak up the Karnevalatmosphere. The climax takes place on Rosenmontag, the Monday before lent, when the largest street procession in Germany parades through the city. Carnival season ends on Ash Wednesday on February 10th.

Lots of fears adressed past year. Confronted snakes, scorpions, lots and lots of ticks (that one does scare me), walked on high narrow mountain paths, drove through snowy roads in snowy bulgarian mountains, had to pass twenty borders without vaccination or codes, was refused by hotels (fuck slovenia) and ah that drive in the dark in the mountains of albania…unrooted a mandrake..and now the parasite wants to recreate a fear from my youth about nuclear war.
And look here: the EU immediately uses the Ukrain war as an excuse to keep spraying dangerous toxins
into nature: https://www.euractiv.com/section/agriculture-food/news/eu-holds-pesticide-reduction-biodiversity-preservation-proposals-amid-ukraine-war/
Biodiversity can wait! It is impossible to argue with these cretins. In fact, lately I have been pondering that all these events mainly seem to be giant lab tests to test how effective their brainwash-programs are. That's what really interests them – control. That's why we see the military in the Netherlands are mapping dissident opinions, something one would expect only in North Korea.
I already knew something was seriously wrong when people after 911 had no interest whatsoever nor any explanation for what happened with building 7. An enormous hole in the official narrative, and yet no one cared. No one cared! No writer as of today has even mentioned it, people who self-identify as 'intellectuals' happily accepted that a steel building can collapse explosion-style from some flying debris.
So they already have their answer: the brainwash show works almost perfectly. All those investments into brain-destroying foods and drugs, it has created the perfect puppet society for endless control. And its really scary how local these brainwash programs are: when I was in Turkey almost no one believed in that western narrative, like 99% of all people did not believe the story.
Don't believe stories. All of them are false. The very ink with which history is written is merely fluid prejudice. – Mark Twain
The concept of the Story-Ego I wrote about yesterday, an internal device that falsifies your life – could it also be operating as a sort of collective story-ego? All these individual story-ego's interconnect and form one giant Story-Ego that falsifies history. And there lies the ultimate trap: instead of deconstructing your own story ego, you will try to deconstruct the collective story-ego, which is of course impossible.
Hence we see millions and millions of people constantly trying to 'influence the collective story' and wasting all their energy on it, energy that is very welcome to the people that profit from this machine.
'I have no active recollection of these events' – these words of Mark Rutte are grifted into his forehead now, but they are the words of the parasite machine itself unto its challengers: it does not remember you. Who are you? You wasted your whole life…doing what?
Unplug yourself. Unplug all the false stories in your head. You do not need to believe any stories. If you have to, something is already seriously wrong. I recommend to unplug, focus on the breath technique en the Goethian Hieat to generate high-level energy the parasite cannot reach. It's the only way to dismantle this giant fear-farm, do not feed the farm itself.

Oil demand has plummeted by about 30% this year. According to Goldman Sachs analysts, it may stay weak in 2021 as well, especially if the second coronavirus wave takes place.
The world has just started a recovery from the coronavirus and the damage it has caused to the global economy. However, U.S. experts are warning of the possible second coronavirus wave. Following their worries, the oil market is down. Oil prices have dropped, as concerns over the coronavirus pandemic and its economic effect have led to the cancellation of support from supply cuts at the world's leading producers.
Worldwide Oil Production is Declining
During the last two weeks, major oil benchmarks, Brent crude and West Texas Intermediate crude futures have been in the green, as the demand for fuel has more or less rebounded. This is mostly due to smoothing over quarantine measures and bringing back to normal life. However, signs of a possible second coronavirus wave have worried investors.
Oil production is declining, and today oil prices are down. Brent crude futures are currently 1.07% or 85 cents down, at $29.87 a barrel. The U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures have plunged by 3.68% or 89 cents by the moment of writing, to $23.83 a barrel.
Oil demand has plummeted by about 30% this year. According to Goldman Sachs analysts, it may stay weak in 2021 as well, especially if the second coronavirus wave takes place.
OCBC economist Howie Lee in Singapore commented:
"That's definitely a cause for concern as the last thing people want is for lockdowns to happen again across multiple cities, but I think authorities should be much more prepared right now to cope with a second wave. Overall, the risk environment looks quite conducive for further upside."
There are also fears that the U.S. is running out of storage space. Tony Nunan, a senior risk manager at Mitsubishi Corp in Tokyo, said:
"People are surprised by how quickly the U.S. is shutting in production and that's exactly what we need in order to support prices. There's another 10 days before the June contract expires … if the WTI contract can avoid a crash going into expiry, hopefully we've seen the bottom."
Will the U.S. Face a Second Coronavirus Wave?
As of today, the number of confirmed coronavirus cases in the US is the highest in the world, 1,367,638 cases. 256,336 people have recovered, 80,787 deaths have been reported. Americans are getting back to normal life as well, businesses are reopening, people are spending more time outside. However, some believe that the cancellation of the lockdown is too rapid.
Mark Zandi at Moody's Analytics believes that fast reopening may lead to being totally unprepared if a second coronavirus wave comes. In this case, the economy will suffer from depression.
Zandi said:
"If we get a second wave, it will be a depression. We may not shut down again, but certainly it will scare people and spook people and weigh on the economy."
Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, has a similar opinion:
"In my mind, it's inevitable that we'll have a return of the virus … when it does, how we handle it will determine our fate."
European analysts have the same fears. The second coronavirus wave is even more dangerous until we have the vaccine.

End of the week round-up
I've been in the studio this week working (specifically wheel-throwing) with a beautiful, but expensive porcelain. I have had some mis-haps clay-wise lately that have me reconsidering which clay I use, however at double the price per box, this clay will have to be reserved for special occasions. I'm conserving all parts of it- it just feels too precious to waste. I'll show you some samples soon- I've been making espresso and latte cups again, which is always fun. Haven't done that for a while, but recently had some new motivation. Apparently a potter friend of mine sent one of my short latte mugs to her niece in Australia, and got a message from her brother who was wondering why she only sent one of my mugs their way. The family has now been fighting about who gets to use it in the mornings because it fits so nice under the espresso machine and it's so lovely to use. Such nice feed-back, heh?
We will be celebrating my dad's 65th birthday, spending time with my little nephews and hopefully doing some more gardening over the weekend if the weather can be sunny and nice. The boys have gotten into wanting to buy plants as 'pets' these days- which I am pretty excited about. I think a pet plant is a great way to go (along with our cat), so even though all our neighbours have new puppies, we will stick to growing our cactus collection.
Have a great weekend!

History of the project
Baggiani / Fischer met after a performance Michael Fischer did at the Theatershool in Amsterdam in 2003, initiated by Marcos Baggiani they ended up performing together that very evening at OT301.
Starting some projects shortly after this first meeting, they developed their work also within 'on-the-edge' experimental performances such as the Bimhuis' laboratory for music & dance impro 'The Meeting Point' (nowadays 'Monday match').
Along with them played great musicisians and performers such as Daisuke Terauchi, Tamaho Myiake, Hilary Jeffery, Felicity Provan, Wilbert de Joode, Ivo Bol, Alan 'Gunga' Purves, Erik Boeren, Gregory Kazaroff, Oscar Jan Hoogland, Burton Greene, Angel Faraldo and dancers Valeria Primost, Makiko Ito, Marisa Grande, Diana Gadish or Eileen Standley a.o. at venues like: Zaal 100, Loos Foundation-Den Haag, Bimhuis, Festival Artacts-St. Johann / A, MediaArt Fest Tussenland-Kasteel Groeneveld / NL, Trytone Fest, Touring Austria 2006, WUK-Vienna, Bethanienklooster, OT301, Theater Kikker-Utrecht, Kraakgeluiden/DNK...
The musicians
Michael Fischer (*1963), viennese improviser/instant composition conductor; after finishing institutional studies in Vienna in 1990 expanded exploration of the saxophone and the harmony theory in jazz; his musical language is also based on studies of european improvised music, 'neue musik', free jazz and noise. By exploring the language immanency of sound, including the phenomenon of the feedback (since 1999) Michael Fischer is permanently working on new contextualisations of the saxophone. In 2005 he founded the Vienna Improvisers Orchestra which has one focus on merging spoken experimental poetry and musical textures; instant composition conductings for improvising orchestras at festivals in Spain, Japan, Germany, Austria. As acoustic and electroacoustic improviser Michael Fischer worked in collaborations and projects since 1996 with John Edwards, Hilary Jeffery, Michael Vatcher, Felicity Provan, Mark Sanders, William Parker, Irene Schweizer, Denis Charles, Peter Kowald, Daisuke Terauchi, Tamaho Miyake, Ito Atsuhiro, Ken Okami, Peter Jaquemyn a.m.o. Extended collaborations with writers in experimental literature, amongst them Petra Ganglbauer, Dieter Sperl, Dimitrij Prigow (t doyen of russian concept art), Gerhard Rühm (*1930, Wiener Gruppe) and with artists such as Marc Adrian (t avantgarde filmer, op-art) or Lore Heuermann (installation and performance artist) a.o. As ensemble leader and member, concerts and festival appearances throughout Europe, Japan, NY; his last Japan tour in 2010 included 14 concerts in 9 cities.
Marcos Baggiani was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 1973. He started drumming at the age of 8. Seduced by different music genres (listening grunge and South-American folk, funk and free jazz) and influenced by his early contact with jazz-men in Argentina, he learned different music styles and played with many bands and projects. In 2001, after years of musical development in Bs.As. he moved to Amsterdam where he completed his formal studies (Master/Jazz) at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam. Enlightened by his encounter with the impro-music scene in Amsterdam, Marcos evolved as a very creative and powerful musician, versatile and joyful. Nowadays he's co-leading The Ambush Party and the Celano/Baggiani group. Also remarkable is his work with Lily's déjà vu or the "Royal Improvisers Orchestra". He has worked with great improvisers such as Ellery Eskelin, Sylvie Courvoisier, Michael Moore, Ingrid Laubrock, John Edwards, Ernst Rijsiger, Eric Boeren, Gorka Benitez, Yedo Gibson, Han Bennink, Daisuke Terauchi, Wolter Wirbos, Achim Kaufmann, Wilbert de Joode, Burton Greene, Andy Moor, Luc Ex, Oscar Jan Hoogland, Alfredo Genovesi, Natalio Sued and Harald Austbo among others.

Electronic Rider Aids – Motorcycle Commentary
Often, when standing at the gas station found near the base of your favorite canyon or in the paddock of the track, conversation hovers around the latest and greatest that manufacturers offer. As we throttle through 2016, the motorcycle market looks incredible.
And speaking as a fan of all-things-Italian that happen to have two wheels, I have to admit, there are plenty of manufacturers that don't fly the red-white-and-green flag creating bikes that are remarkable both performance and technology.
Now, you're if you happen to be in a part of the world that has made rider aid such as ABS mandatory – 2016 is the year that marks a change. I unequivocally agree that all new motorcycles above the 125cc displacement should require ABS.
Gulping down water and coffee at your favorite rest stop gives everyone a chance to look over the bike next to you, and talk about the one you're interested in finally picking up this year. I was recently integrated into the Ultimate MotorCycling team, and I've had the wonderful opportunity to ride some of 2016's fine offerings that make us all want to drain our accounts or genuinely consider signing on for questionable loans.
ABS, Traction Control, Wheelie Control, Inertial Measurement Units, Quick shifting, Electronic Suspension, Adjustable Riding Modes – these are just a few of the amenities that the consumer faces when deciding on a new motorcycle. When I received my motorcycle endorsement, I joined the ranks of the motorcycling community at a time when these amenities were reserved for high dollar flagship models. Today, I'm glad to see that some of them have moved from a luxury category into something that the consumer now expects.
Back at the gas station, there will always be the grumblings from the old guard, men and women who own boots that predate my existence, proudly proclaiming "I don't need that getting in the way of my ride" or "it's just another thing that can break." But I have to wonder, why must we buck against something that is there to help? Surely, someone as innocuous Anti-lock Braking Systems mean me no harm when riding; to the contrary, it's one small advantage and I'll take anything I can get.
Curiously, when racing conversations began, I hear a lot of bashing electronic aid. But nearly everything we have in the consumer market was born from racing, and on the electronic side of things, that couldn't be truer. Maybe I'm not a fast or aggressive enough rider to trigger some of these rider aid and have them negatively impact my time out in the canyons or on the track. That is a very strong possibility, but when I hop on my '06 Ducati 749s that is devoid of all the aforementioned creature comforts, I miss knowing that those aids are there.
That can be a problem. For a new generation of riders, those who are going to be buying their first motorcycles in a market where electronic features are now ubiquitous, what does worry me is a complete reliance on those aid. If you find yourself on a motorcycle that doesn't have those features, will you full-fist the front brake? I somehow doubt that this rhetorical hyperbolic rider exists, but there is a chance he or she is out there. Rider aids – regardless of how good – are no replacement for proper riding techniques. A full electronic suite isn't going to compensate for poor throttle-control, horrible body position or bad tires. These aids were designed to do, but rather enhance the already basics of riding.
I'm not advocating that we do away with the old. That isn't the point at all; if that were the case, I would have sold the 749s and sunk what little money I have into a newer motorcycle. Things change. Technology advances, whether we like it or not and the world will continue to turn with or without your approval.
I would argue against it and support your position if this were to negatively impact the riding community, but it isn't. I'd argue that some of these advantages, whether you put them to use or not, help a rider focus. And for riders of different styles, most electronic aids are programmable to your riding styles or needs.
The new riding year is here, and for those who plan on finally upgrading (I too am one of those people), electronics are something that will most certainly be found on whatever pink slip adorns the buyer's name in the coming years. So let us not throw sticks at the humble offerings that manufacturers have brought us or denounce these additions to be heresy in the name of all that is holy in motorcycling – let's just hope that the menus are a bit easier to navigate as time goes on.

Tourmalines which are often known as the rainbow gemstone are a wonderful example of nature's beauty. They can occur in a wide range and even multi coloured. We bought this loose stone known as a watermelon tourmaline due to it having a pink centre with a green surround. We had great fun looking at what we should do with it and eventually decided on the pendant shown here.
Then there are green tourmalines which work well on their own as can be seen in this simple 4 claw set ring.
The vibrant green colour of emeralds reminds me of the last lush summer woodland plants. So I've grouped together these emerald rings including a line ring, a simple rub over with a small diamond points and deco inspired ring.

When walking through the wood in the autumn there is an abundance of moss. So this brings me to the unique crystal moss agate and if you look at these pendants it almost looks as if trees and plants are captured within them. With its greenish filaments resembling moss or other plants it was in the 18th century widely regarded as a good luck stone.
We often think of amber as a lovely cognac colour but because this is a natural resin it comes in many different shades including green. Although available in silver I think this ring and pendant works very well contrasting with gold plated silver as this enhances the lovely warm tones.
Mexican fire opals vary from pale yellow to a deep red including warm autumnal body colours but I am rather taken by the rich orange colour in this set. By contrast the golden hues of autumn are also captured in these elegant preloved 18ct citrine and diamond long drop earrings

The organic shape of leaves reflect so well in jewellery and I love the way this designer has captured this silver leaf wrapped around the finger.
This silver capped acorn pendant is very tactile and just calls out to be rolled around in your fingers. Magnetic and easy to open it reveals a tiny golden heart as an unexpected surprise. And if you find one acorn on the woodland floor there are bound to be others so perhaps it will be this little acorn topped in gold plate with an oakleaf which is surprisingly heavy for such a cute pendant.

Russia – a new home for German businessmen?
German politicians responded with outrage to Schröder taking over as chairman of Rosneft's board of directors on Friday. The ex-chancellor's apparent closeness with Russian oligarchs and the Kremlin is an embarrassment to Berlin, which is still locked in a diplomatic crisis with Russia. Rosneft, a Russian energy giant, is one of the companies targeted by the EU sanctions.
Andreas Scheuer, a leader of the Bavaria's CSU party, called the former chancellor a "Russian mercenary," while another conservative lawmaker Norbert Röttgen said it was "completely unbelievable" that Schröder would chose to "cash in" on his stint as chancellor in this way.
Der Spiegel magazine even quoted Martin Schulz, from Schröder's own left-leaning SPD party, as saying that "the guy [Schröder] has gone completely nuts."
However, Schröder is far from the first famous German to break into the top tier of Russian companies.
Swimming upstream
Gerhard Schröder's career in Russian companies started only a few weeks after he left office in 2005. First, he was appointed head of the advisory board in a firm called Nord Steam AG, which was founded by Russia's Gazprom. He soon moved to the top of the shareholders committee in the smaller company. According to the ex-chancellor's autobiography, this appointment was personally arranged by Russian President Vladimir Putin. Schröder became chairman of the board in Nord Stream 2, which deals specifically with expanding the pipeline transporting natural gas from Russia to Germany. He has retained both positions to this day.

Schröder also held a senior position in another major oil company, called TNK-BP, from 2009 to 2011. The company was acquired by "Rosneft" in 2014. Soon thereafter, the Russian Komersant newspaper reported on Schröder's possible transfer to the board of directors of Rosneft, although it took years before the company and the former German leader followed through.
From Stasi to the top of Russia
While Schröder capitalized on his political experience and connections, other Germans took different paths. Before the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, Matthias Warnig had worked in the DDR's infamous Stasi security service. In 1990, he got a job working for the Dresdner Bank and soon became the first person to obtain a license to open a foreign bank in Saint Petersburg. There, he established contact with Vladimir Putin, who was starting out his political career. According to the official version of events, Warnig and Putin first met in Saint Petersburg. However, according to media reports citing Warnig's former colleagues, the two were already acquainted in Dresden, where Putin worked for the Russian secret service, the KGB.
Either way, by the middle of the last decade, Warnig had become an increasingly imposing figure in the Russian business world, gradually gaining entry to top tier of Russia's largest companies. Between 2003 and 2015, he was a member of the supervisory committee of Rossiya bank, which is controlled by pro-regime businessmen Yuri Kovalchuk and Nikolai Shamalov. The former Stasi agent also served as the CEO of Nord Stream AG, and is now the executive director of Nord Stream 2. Additionally, he is a member of an advisory board of the VTB bank, and the board of directors in both Rosneft and pipeline-producing Transneft. He also holds one of top jobs in the Russian aluminum giant, Rusal. In 2012, he received a medal from Vladimir Putin for "special merit in the development of bilateral relations" with Russia.
Germans rails to Russian rails
Several top managers from Germany have found jobs in Russia after holding top posts in major German corporations. One of them is Burckhard Bergmann. In the mid-2000s, he led the top energy business in Germany, E.ON-Rurhgas, and served as an independent director in Gazprom, before entering the board of directors in Novatek, another major natural gas producer in Russia. He was awarded the Russian Order of Friendship in 2011.
Read more: Schröder insists Rosneft job 'not a problem'
Russia's state railway company also has a German in their board of directors. Harmut Mehdorn, a close fried to former chancellor Schröder and a former chief of Germany's Deutsche Bahn, joined the board in 2011, after leaving his post in the German company over a scandal which involved spying on employees.
A former president of the German Central Bank, Ernst Welteke, also works in Russia. He became a member of the board of directors of the Russian "Centr-Invest" in 2005, after he left the German bank over corruption allegations.
Germans in MTS
Another top German manager, Ron Sommer, has been heading the board of directors of Russia's mobile provider MTS since 2009. Earlier, Sommer served as the head of the German telecommunications giant Deutsche Telekom between 1995 and 2002. MTS' biggest shareholder is the conglomerate Sistema, which is owned by one the richest people in Russia, Vladimir Evtushenkov. The German also joined the board of directors of Sistema last year.
Another top MTS official is Thomas Holtrop, formerly the head of the T-Online internet provider and a board member in Deutsche Telekom. In 2015, another German joined Sommer and Holtrop in MTS – Regina von Flemming, formerly CEO of the publishing giant Axel Springer. Von Flemming took up the post after the German company sold its assets in 2015, in order to comply with changes in Russian media law. She has also served as an advisor to Evtushenkov since 2016.

Very interesting. Intereperation? Mine? Well, I'll have to look at it for a while longer and get back to you…….So far, I have a few, one of which is sort of profane.ReplyDelete
Still, very interesting any way.
p.s. I have no idea for the Raghead movie title, yet.
This is a spiral and a spiral is one of the oldest symbols of life, love, birth and all things generally good. Seems under that cynical exterior lies a loving and optimistic heart :-)ReplyDelete

After a lengthy mid-season break, Australia's best V8 Superboat jet sprint drivers will be back in action this weekend at Round Mountain Raceway at Cabarita Beach on the north coast of New South Wales, a demanding venue popular with both drivers and fans. A season-high 30 teams are entered for the two-race fourth round of the season.
Once again, three-time Unlimited Superboat champion Phonsy Mullan has proven unstoppable this season. But there have been a number of drivers this year who have pushed the four-time national champion to dig deeper, and there is expected to be an even greater depth of competition for the dominant Victorian this weekend. All the leading teams, with the exception of former world champion Slade Stanley—who was once more forced to delay his debut with a new boat after another technical setback—are expected to compete.
Heading into the Cabarita Beach event, Phonsy Mullan remains the favorite in the Unlimited class. Photos courtesy/copyright Russell Puckeridge/Pureart Creative Images.
The event will see the return of one of the most feared Unlimited Superboats in the world, with Victoria's Tremayne Jukes taking delivery recently of the famed Loose Cannon, a boat built and developed by former Australian champion Dean Finch.
With a fearless reputation when it comes to man-handling a 1,000-plus horsepower Unlimited boat around a circuit, Jukes is expected to be the wildcard in the Unlimited field this weekend, and despite announcing his plans to take a cautious approach to the weekend, he openly admits that once the flag falls plans are often forgotten.
Just 12-months ago the Cabarita event provided one of the most historic moments in V8 Superboats history after Adelaide's Tony Giustozzi had a big moment on the run back up the home straight, coming to an end upside down in front of the big local crowd. It wasn't the biggest V8 Superboats crash we'd ever seen, nor the biggest for the Excalibur team, but Giustozzi's maniacal laughing as the boat came to a stop made him an overnight Internet sensation with almost 25-million views. Footage was also played one two national news broadcasts to the delight of hundreds of thousands of viewers.
While Giuztozzi and team-mate Mick Carroll will be keen not to repeat the incident this weekend, both have shown to be fearless competitors and both are capable of making the Unlimited podium in their naturally-aspirated 510-cubic-inch Chevrolet V8 powered Sprintec.
Throw in West Australian star Jamie Welch in his similarly powered machine and two-time Australian champion Daryl Hutton and you'd expect plenty of fireworks, but that's without considering the dual boats from former 400-Class champions Ted and Darek Sygidus.
The two Sygidus brothers are expected to share their monstrous 680ci V8 powered Frnkenzstain, while former round winner Rob Coley will campaign the team's "junior: boat with its 510-cubic-inch naturally-aspirated powerplant. The competitive New Zealander always one to thrill the crowd.
Although the Unlimited class always attracts plenty of attention, the Group A [400 Class] class, too, will have the crowd on its feet, especially with the return of a past champion. Former 350 Class champ Daniel James will return to the fold with a fresh new JRE-built 410-cubic-inch powerplant, but the popular Victorian will have his work cut out, with fellow former 350 Class champions—Queensland locals—Brooke Lucas and Brett Thornton expected to be the pace-setters this weekend.
Local knowledge always contributes to the result at Cabarita, and with a number of Tweed Coast Jet Sprint Club local events run at Round Monutain Raceway in recent months, there are a number of Queensland boats expected to feature at the top of the timesheets.
The next race (and final round) for the 2016 Australian Superboat Championships is Sept. 3-4, Tweed Coast, New South Wales.

Whino Brings 'Lowbrow' Art and Cocktails to Ballston Quarter
The street art gallery, restaurant and bar is open late.
Whino, a new Ballston Quarter nightspot, is pairing underground art shows with craft beer tastings in a neighborhood that is just emerging from a year and a half of pandemic-induced hibernation.
"People are excited to get out of their pajamas," says owner and art curator Shane Pomajambo.
The restaurant-gallery hybrid opened June 18 on the second floor of the revitalized mall, already home to more than two dozen eateries. After a series of local gallery closures in recent years (Artisphere, Metro Micro Gallery, Gallery Clarendon), investing in a new one poses some risk. But Pomajambo is optimistic.
"People haven't gone to an art gallery in a year and a half. People haven't gone out to eat. People haven't gone to bars," he says. "So this is a great opportunity."
Pomajambo, originally from Queens, is knee-deep in the local arts scene, with a focus on "lowbrow" or "pop surrealist" art, a contemporary genre that emphasizes the subversive. In 2007, he opened his first gallery, Art Whino, in Old Town Alexandria before relocating it to National Harbor. A second gallery, Blind Whino, opened in D.C. six years later. Pomajambo also founded the annual G40 Art Summit, first held in Crystal City, and the Richmond Mural Project. The idea for Whino came to him, he says, as he hit his 10th anniversary as a gallery owner and considered how he'd like to approach the next decade.
"I went ahead and closed everything. And now it's all living under one roof," he says.
The 6,200-square-foot night club took 2 1/2 years to build and open, stymied by construction delays and the pandemic. Inside, artwork weaves through the space. A small gallery of Plexiglas boxes house collectible figurines—star-eyed skulls, loveable robots and reimagined superheroes—that can go for hundreds of dollars a pop.
In the center of the room hangs a floating gallery of 2D works. Above each of the three bars are vibrant murals painted by artists from New York (Dragon76 —who also provided the image on staff uniform T-shirts), L.A. (Aaron "Woes" Martin) and Northern Virginia (Rodrigo Pradel), with a fourth mural from Hong Kong-based artist Caratoes near the entrance.
The murals will be frequently repainted, Pomajambo says, to demonstrate that the gallery "is a living thing."
Patrons can order food and drink from any of Whino's three bars, one of which overlooks the kitchen. The menu includes charcuterie and shareable plates such as za'atar spiced lamb ribs and porchetta sliders. When Pomajambo discussed the menu with executive chef Eleftherios Natas (most recently regional chef for El Centro D.F.), the owner mentioned that some of his clientele might have a tight budget.
"[Natas] said to me, 'Don't tell me tater tots, 'cause everybody's doing tater tots,'" Pomajambo recalls. When the Whino owner noted that the beloved spuds would fit in fairly well with the casual, street-art vibe of the place, Natas presented his own take: polenta tots with Oaxaca cheese and chorizo, currently the kitchen's No. 1 seller.
Pomajambo says he's tried to keep things local when it comes to the menu, which includes a draft list with several local breweries (Port City, Solace, DC Brau). In a nod to what he calls the "tongue-and-cheek" nature of lowbrow art, many of the cocktails have cheeky names. (The Ancient Assassin packs a punch with Elijah Craig rye, madeira and Gran Classico.)
The space will regularly present both dining (one of its bars is built for tastings) and art events; an Evolution Craft Brewing Co. tasting event is on tap July 6 and a solo show from muralist Woes opens July 15. Whino also hosts after-hours events with DJs, food specials and drink tastings.
General manager Patrick Young says Whino management is intent on providing an "experience."
"[It includes what] you experience with your eyes, to that which you experience when you dine out or when you enjoy a cocktail or a nice glass of wine," he said during a recent visit to the space.
The restaurant-industry veteran says he and Pomajambo eschewed QR codes and flat screens in favor of actual conversation.
"We wanted people to get back to being social and sharing and talking and having something to talk about," Young says. "Just sort of getting back to the fundamentals of being human again."
Located at 4238 Wilson Blvd. (second floor) in Ballston, Whino is open Monday–Wednesday, 3 p.m.–10 p.m.; Thursday and Friday, 3 p.m.– 2 a.m.; Saturday noon – 2 a.m. and Sunday noon – 10 p.m.
