Polina Zherebtsova's Diary of the Chechen War – Part 1
[This is a loose translation of the original Russian diary, an abridged excerpt of which appeared in the journal Bolshoi Gorod on 30 September 2009. Part 1 here, others to follow.]
24 September 1999
We were bombed a little today. The neighbours did not go to work, they were so scared. Mum and I are off to the market – to sell our wares. I help her. There's talk that my school is closed. Everybody says: War.
27 September 1999
In our Staropromyslovsky district, the station 'Beryozka' was bombed – it's right by us. They've been bombing it since morning. I am going to read Shakespeare. Our library has twelve of his books. These are old books, printed early in the 20th century. My grandfather, the journalist and cameraman, bought them. He was killed in a crossfire in 1994 at the beginning of the first war.
I have terrible dreams at night.
Update: it's evening. 420 people were killed. Many injured. Hospital №7 has been bombed. Mum and I were in the market, selling.
29 September, Wednesday.
Bombing. My favourite neighbour, aunt Maryam has left for Ingushetia. No other news.
30 September, Thursday.
They were bombing bridges. On the radio we heard that the tanks of the federal forces will likely be advancing on October 10.
I thought about it and decided that since it's war, I should go and buy some black lingerie. It won't need to be washed as often.
Huge queues for bread. People seem to have gone out of their minds.
1 October
Yesterday and the day before, there was bombing.
The city is rife with rumours. Often these pieces of 'information' contradict each other.
There would be a new round of war in August, we had been told by Professor V. Nunaev – the famous cardiologist. We hadn't believed him, and bought new stock. On August 6, we found out that the widow of the late President Dudaev had fled from Grozny. So much information! We can only believe those who have seen things happen with their own eyes. And under no circumstances can we trust what we hear with our ears!
In the market, people were exchanging addresses, befriending each other. If there's heavy bombardment or damage, perhaps they will have a place to go to, to stay. Nazar gave us his address. He and his wife sell all sorts of produce. Kossior Street, №8, apartment 66. A Russian woman, too, gave us her address. Her name is Lelya. She said to us, "If you are downtown and there's an air-raid, run to Victory Prospect to house №5; we have a big underground shelter in the courtyard." To die, I guess, is not scary; what is scary is to lie wounded amidst the ruins and die slowly.
I thought about the various religions. They are all good, except that people are remiss in following the laws of God.
At our neighbour Fatima's, her son died. He was only a little boy.
5 October
Alive so far!
There's been no cooking gas for a long time. The drains still work.
Bombardment. Our four-storeyed house has been subsiding under the vibration. In my room, the walls have separated from the ceiling.
Airplanes circled above the market today. Many people fled. Among them was that bright fellow called Vandam who studies at the Law school. Occasionally he allows me to sell from his wooden kiosk. It is convenient when it rained. But I don't like him.
At home we boiled potatoes in the electric kettle. The gas supply has been cut off to minimise explosions and fires in the houses during cross-fires.
11 October
The fighting continues. From afar we hear rumbles like thunder. We decided to sell more newspapers. We have no way out. Nobody is buying our wares. We don't have enough money to eat. The day before yesterday I went and met the wife of Sulim, the man who buys newspapers and magazine in bulk. She introduced herself – Sonia. And at once she gave me magazines on account.
Yesterday, our neighbour in the market, the one who sells medicines, came up to our stall with some colleagues of her son. One of them, whom I didn't know, presented me with a beautiful little book. The woman is called Kusum. She wants me and her son to become friends. Her son is very tall, and so he stoops. He is modest, shy. His name is Daud. He attends training courses at the Petroleum Institute. There are always chemistry texts in his hands.
Daud is 21 years old, and I am 14. Mum says it is too soon for me to get married. She insists, "She must study!" Kusum is offended and says,"You are the only girl whom my son has eyes for. If you officially become his fiancee, we shall wait till you finish your ninth grade at school." By Chechen standards, this is a flattering offer. I can see that he is a good fellow. But I like his friend better – the one who gave me the book.
Daud's mother bought me a lovely summer shirt and solemnly handed it to me. She explained the gift thus – "To the first girl my son ever liked!"
Our neighbour, a merry fellow nicknamed Pinocchio, has not been seen for several days. He is a wonderful narrator of books and films. He sells music cassettes not far from us. He lends me cassettes to take home, to listen for free. He lives in the town of Urus-Martan.
12 October
I don't go to school. There are no classes. I am helping mum.
Some idiot in the pouring rain doused a tree with kerosene and set it on fire the day before. The result was a massive bonfire. Just then an airplane flew over and began to circle. Everyone was terrified – what if they drop a bomb? But nothing happened.
The woman who sells medicines introduced me to her sisters. She says that everyone has taken a liking to me. But I must wear a scarf so that nobody knows that my mother is Russian and will treat me better. These adults are chatty. They are always handing me little presents. Maybe now I will have some friends?
I love scarves and shawls. I don't like the emancipated women of the West. Any dress with a scarf to match is romantic and tender and mysterious. A friend of my mother's advised her to make me wear a scarf. He explained: "I'll then be able to look out for you. You will look older – you need protection!"
They don't know that my father's father was a Chechen. And so if you consider the male line, I'm Chechen as well. My surname is my mother's because seven months before I was born, my mum separated from my father. She didn't want to be reconciled with him. It's true that I have never seen my father. I know that he has a son with his first wife, also a Russian. The woman is called Tanya. I've been told since I was little: "Your father is dead!" But I want to believe that this is not true.
Today my favourite and dearest aunt Leila came to our stall. Leila has always helps us. At one time she used to work with mum at the big factory, the "Red Hammer".
No sooner had she come near us than she began to beg us to leave Grozny. My mum paid hardly any attention. She said, "I don't know what kind of people there are elsewhere. How do they live? They have no customs or rules. I have no close relatives anywhere. No acquaintances either. I have lived here all my life since I was fifteen. Here I have the graves of two relatives – my grandmother and my father. I own my house – that is very important. Ruslan is here. So what if it's not an official marriage? I still have support. If I leave with the child, what are we to do? Am I to live alone?"
I was very offended by that Chechen fellow, Vandam. He saw me in my scarf and burst out laughing. "Why are you all dressed up? Where are you off to?" he said. Then he spat, the swine.
Once he sent his aunt over to us to get acquainted. His aunt made much of my mum, gave her treats. This is customary in the East, to get acquainted and to introduce a boy and a girl to each other. She even openly asked for my hand in marriage to her nephew. But she concealed the fact that he already had a wife. We learned this from some other folk.
13 October
At night we listen to the booming guns. In the daytime, we ply our trade. Sonia's attitude towards us has worsened. I don't know if I have offended her with my frequent requests. Or have our competitors said something to her?
These days I wear a scarf like Aunt Kusum. She often praises me. She sits next to us in the market and brushes my hair. She says, "Come on, let's get you a perm!"
Daud's friend came over again. He bought me an ice-cream. Does he like me? I heard this from Aunt Kusum, Daud's mum. This chap asked me, "How old are you?" When he heard that I was only fourteen, he was surprised. "You are so small! I thought you were older. You know, you look so much like Princess Budur in my favourite fairy-tale." I laughed and declared that he was Aladdin! We looked at each other for a long time in silence. I was taken aback at my own courage. Previously I would keep quiet in the company of boys, and only listen; now here I was – talking.
Aladdin has lovely eyes. His hair is black, curly, down to his shoulders. He is definitely like a prince. I remembered that I saw him once in a dream. It was a long time ago, when I was a toddler, before I went to school.
Aladdin told me he is 23 years old. His father has another family. He has his mother and his sister. They live in a village. Suddenly shy, he stared for a long time at his shoes, and left without saying goodbye.
14 October
Our business is barely alive. We have money to buy food, but we can hardly save anything.
The papers have troubling news about how escaping refugees have to go half the way on foot, how they are freezing, and how vehicles carrying them are shot at on the roads. The way out of the city is very dangerous!
In the morning I went to school. Perhaps there won't be classes till spring. All the youngsters are wearing military uniform. Many are being called up. No weapons in hand as yet, only radio-sets. The adult men have automatic weapons. Whoever is thirty years or older is armed.
Kusum is in tears, says that her son has left home. She wants my mum to help her bring him back. She begs permission to say that I will agree to marry him. If only he would abandon his new friends and come back! We support Kusum's idea. I warn her that I would definitely help her, even if I left later. In the event, Kusum didn't dare take me with her and went by herself. But she came back without her son. Daud said he trusted his companions and wouldn't leave them till the end… We all wept.

Tara quietly slipped into her pink sandals.
The beautiful pair was bought last year.
However now they are too tight.
Tara and her family were at her mother's friend's home.
Aunt Naomi, Mother's friend, lives in Peradeniya.
Tara's family arrived there in the morning.
After tea they were to head for the botanical gardens.
Tara changed her shoes and wore the sandals.
She brought the sandals in her picnic bag.
"Tara why did you bring that pair? It's too tight" mother warned.
"You will get shoe cuts" she warned.
'Remove them and wear your shoes again" mother insisted.
"Please Amma, let me wear the sandals" Tara begged.
"Don't complain if you get shoe cuts" mother cautioned her.
They got onto car and proceeded towards the gardens.
At the gate the family got off the car and started walking.
There were beautiful flowers and trees in the garden.
Tara started admiring them.
However her feet started to pain.
The sandal straps were cutting into her skin.
Tears wetted Tara's eyes.
She held her mother's hand and whispered.
"Amma my feet hurt".
Mother looked at Tara.
'Remove the sandals" she said.
Tara removed her sandals and gave them to mother.
She started walking barefoot.
There were shoe cut marks on her feet.
Tara learned her lesson.
Where does Aunty Naomi live?
What did mother ask when she first saw Tara's sandals?
What made Tara's eyes teary?

Dog Walker Sawston UK
Dog Walker Sawston, Cambridgeshire: There could be a number of reasons why you are seeking out a local dog walker in Sawston, you could be out working all day and do not have time for walking your dog, possibly you're suffering from poor health and aren't fit enough to walk your dog, or you could be simply just idle and would like to hire someone else to walk your dog.
Well the good news is you can find tons of dog walkers around keen and eager to do just that. The truth is you should be able to find people in your area of Sawston who can not just walk your dog but also carry out many other pet and doggy stuff, like dog and cat sitting, dog and pet to vet services, dog board and lodging, small animal care, pet taxi services and cat visits.
Why Do You Need a Dog Walker?: Although we of course all cherish our pet dogs and consider them to be one of the family, we quite often don't have adequate time to provide them with the care and attention that they need, especially in relation to exercise and walking. In our active working schedule, a family to provide for and social commitments it's not always an easy task to fit in walking and exercising the dog, nearly as regularly as they need and you would like.
Now I reckon that all of you recognize that your dog needs plenty of exercise and it's beneficial that you take your dog for walks on a regular basis, both for fitness and for the dog's general health and wellbeing. it is always best if you do it yourself since you are able to gain the same health benefits as the dog does, enjoying much needed fresh air and exercise. There is additionally the benefit of bonding, engaging in shared activities can help you in creating a lasting relationship with your pet. In today's busy world however, many of us basically do not have the spare time to take the dog for a walk, and certainly not daily, and it's one particular chore which can be easily put off until tomorrow.
This is a scenario where a local Sawston dog walker can be of use to you, providing you with a consistent dog walking service on a day to day basis, taking the anxiety of one daily duty and giving you more time to do essential things. A dog walker will visit your home in Sawston, pick up your furry friend and go walking for an hour or so. It can be every day, three times per week, or just on those odd days when you have important responsibilities or are too busy.
Certain Sawston dog walkers walk your dog solo, other services may take dogs out in groups, so it might be better to go over your exact needs with your chosen dog walker if you have a particular preference. If your dog is affable and mixes well with other dogs, a group walk may be more beneficial, if your dog does not get on well with other dogs, a one to one walk might be best.
Numerous local Sawston dog walkers may provide other pet services not only for dogs, for example they might pick up your dog and taxi it to the vet, offer dog boarding services whilst you are away, pop along to your home every day to feed or check on your dog, cat or small pet or provide your dog or puppy with some basic training if needed. Others may even be able to offer a dog grooming service too. These kinds of services can prove really helpful and provide a total pet care service which will give you reassurance with regard to the health, happiness and wellbeing of all your animals and pets, while still allowing you to socialize, look after your family and work.
Using the professional services of a local Sawston dog walker should not fully take the place of your personal interaction with your dog though, you still should take your dog out as often as you possibly can, to keep strong that bond and relationship. You should be a fundamental part of their exercise and training routine to make sure that your precious pet stays happy, loved and healthy.
The Benefits of Dog Walking: There are a number of amazing benefits that a dog can gain from regular walking and exercise they include: improved mental health and wellbeing, lowering of blood pressure, weight management, decreased loneliness, better bonding, stronger bones and muscles and increased cardiovascular fitness.
How Much Does it Cost?: Just like any services, dog walking prices will differ quite a bit, depending on the area in which you live, whether it is a group or one to one walk (group walks are often cheaper), the amount of time spent on each walk and the service required, but the likely charges should be between £9 and £15 for a one hour walking session with kisses and cuddles provided free.
Sawston Dog Walkers and What to Look For: Obviously as there aren't any certifications or qualifications for dog walking, essentially any Tom, Dick or Harry is able to put themselves forward as a dog walker and start running that service, therefore you should be very vigilant concerning just who you select to walk your dog in Sawston. There could be security worries as you may be permitting access to your house in order to collect the dog or feed your pets. You could have more faith in any dog walkers who have passed a police DBS check (Disclosure and Barring Service check). You may also want to find out if your prospective Sawston dog walker has a good insurance policy, to cover any accidents involving your dog, having some sort of public liability insurance would unquestionably be acceptable. It would also be sensible if any would-be dog walker meets your dog first so as to ensure that that they will get on with each other.
Make Some Money as a Dog Walker in Sawston: If you are keen on dogs, don't mind a lot of exercise and enjoy being out in the elements, earning some cash as a dog walker in Sawston might be right up your alley. Do not imagine for one second that taking dogs for walks is the easy route to prosperity, because it's not, and there are certainly limitations to what you can make, particularly to begin with, however if you are simply looking for a new occupation, currently without a job or unhappy in your present job, then dog walking could be your dream come true.
Prior to actually starting such a business you must do some market research, you must find out if there is a need for dog walkers in the area, figure out exactly how many dog walkers are currently working in Sawston, discover just what existing dog walkers are asking for their services, find out whether there are suitable areas for walking a dog, check if there are local council restrictions regarding walking dogs and any additional relevant things that comes to mind. Find out as much data as you can before you fork out any money on equipment or advertising.
Initially it might be a good idea to take out some dogs belonging to close neighbours, friends, workmates or members of your family, in order to get a feel for whether dog walking is going to be the career for you. Initially offer this voluntarily and once you eventually commence as a real business, these first "clients" may possibly end up being paying customers and make up an early round.
Make sure you have the financial stability to last a few months without dipping into your early dog walking earnings, it isn't likely to take off immediately and you have to be patient until you have developed a good client base. It could easily take twelve months to build a good round and even then, your dog walking income might not be enough to get by on. You could always start off on a part-time basis and build up your business gradually.
Be certain you get yourself some decent insurance cover, accidents certainly can happen and you need to avoid being crippled by being sued when they do. You will discover there are insurance coverage aimed specifically at dog walkers, do some research online and obtain a nice dog walking insurance policy.
Its easy to get an idea of the prices to charge from local people who are already providing dog walking services in Sawston, it is better to set your rates at an equivalent amount and you should not try to charge less than the others, simply to steal their customers. Far better to offer extra services for the same money in order to be the more attractive propostition.
Sawston Dog Walkers And What They Do
Dog Walker Sawston: There are obviously a large number of things which you might need a local Sawston dog walker for, and below I have mentioned merely a small selection of the possible reasons you might find the need to call on the assistance of a dog walker in Sawston, Cambridgeshire.
Using a service like Bark will help you to pick prospective dog walkers in Sawston, Cambridgeshire and also find Ickleton dog walkers, Little Abingdon dog walkers, Hinxton dog walkers, Babraham dog walkers, Stapleford dog walkers, Newton dog walkers, Stump Cross dog walkers, Whittlesford dog walkers, Little Shelford dog walkers and more local dog walker pet related services.
Dog Walker Sawston Cambridgeshire - Tips and Hints for Picking One: One of the old fashioned though still popular methods of locating a dog walker in Sawston is by wading through local directories or free local papers, so you could have a peek at some of the better directories for instance Thomson Local, Local Life, City Visitor, Cyclex, 118 118, Touch Local, Yell, Mister What or Yelp although of course anybody will put a listing into these this means that there is no guarantee of the trustworthiness of any individual Sawston dog walker, meaning you'll be chancing to luck by using this approach.
There are several strategies by which you might obtain a capable Sawston dog walker and you might use all or any of them to acquire the most suitable Sawston dog walker for the job: 1. Look on one of the many trades portals where customers post reviews and testimonials for dog walkers who have carried out jobs for them in the past, 2. Browse the Yellow Pages, business directories, local newspapers or flyers and leaflets put through your letterbox, 3. Check with family members, associates, close friends or even your neighbours to find out if they could suggest a dog walker in Sawston who they have previously used and who made a good job.
Searching the Internet: In today's times one of the most obvious ways to hunt for a dog walker in Sawston is by using Yahoo or Google. Sometimes even this strategy isn't without its challenges, because you will need to determine precisely which results are actually relevant to the phrase that you searched for. Being as accurate as you can possibly be is the best approach whenever conducting a search on the internet, the most obvious phrase to input is "dog walker Sawston" or "Sawston dog walker", this could lead to mixed results and nearly all of what is returned will be from a number of of the well known web directories such as Yellow Pages and Thomson Local, but what is probably not quite as clear to you right away is that often the top 3 or 4 results are pay per click adverts, to put it simply someone has paid to gain that spot and possibly they are not a local business or relevant for your needs, therefore you will want to scroll down the results and essentially disregard such adverts. On occasion one of two of the returned search results could also be pertaining to job sites like Indeed or Monster offering dog walker jobs in Sawston, these can of course also be disregarded.
There may be two or three results returned on page 1 that actually list sites of dog walkers in Sawston, you will be able to spot them if you look closely, jump to the 2nd or 3rd page and there is a better chance of finding a higher percentage of real Sawston dog walkers. You could try to be more specific, for instance, if you happen to be a single woman living independently you may well choose to hunt for a lady dog walker, therefore you could type in "lady dog walker Sawston", or maybe you can try "dog sitter Sawston", "dog walker near me in Sawston" or "dog walking Sawston". You might also bear in mind that not every dog walker in Sawston will have a website, so another effective technique is to look for several extra dog walkers within the business listings placed beneath the map on Google and Bing, when you are doing such a search.

Providers Urged to Wait on Remote Patient Monitoring
A Chilmark report says the connected care ecosystem is still being driven by payers, and it expects most health systems won't be fully invested in mHealth until the end of the decade.
- A new analysis of the connected health ecosystem advises healthcare providers to take a "wait and see approach" on mHealth devices and platforms.
"Migration to Connected Health: Opportunities & Challenges in Remote Patient Monitoring," prepared by Chilmark Research, lists a number of provider organizations that have seen financial and clinical success in using connected health platforms. Yet the report says the payer market, still managing much of the risk in the market, is driving adoption, and most providers are reluctant to jump on board.
"Looking at the connected health market today, it appears the shift to provider-dominated purchasing (of connected health tools and platforms) is still a couple of years away," the report notes. "Outside of the small pack of large provider systems innovating, the average health system or small hospital will simply wait until there is a better reimbursement climate."
Still, the potential is quite evident: "Though we are in the early days of this market, connected health holds tremendous potential for everyone involved: For health system executives tasked with bending the cost curve, for nurses and doctors charged with caring for a highly complex patient population, and especially for patients and their loved ones tasked with figuring out an illness they may not understand or be able to manage on their own," the 31-page report concludes.
The report calls the idea of using mHealth to manage entire populations "science fiction given where technology and the market are today." Health systems will only adopt connected care technologies when they start accepting large, value-based contracts and target the high-risk patients who represent the biggest source of healthcare costs.
On a separate level, Chilmark sees more progressive health systems, self-insured employers and health plans to lead the way in adopting connected care platforms to manage chronic conditions such as diabetes, asthma and hypertension.
The report cites four conditions that point to increased provider adoption of mHealth by the end of this decade:
- The transition to value-based reimbursement by Medicare and private payers;
- Stage 3 of the Meaningful Use program, which calls on health systems to begin collected patient-generated data in 2018 – a mandate that will compel providers and EHR vendors alike to invest in connected care models;
- Medicare's reimbursement for remote management of chronic care (CCM), a program that's seen by many in the industry as the first, tentative step toward reimbursement of remote patient monitoring;
- And the ongoing trend of states updating their Medicaid reimbursement models to cover remote patient monitoring.
While advising health systems to be patient on the market, the report also urges them to begin due diligence.
"While Chilmark Research is optimistic on the potential of connected health models, we are also realistic as to the tremendous amount of work and the high costs that can go into virtually monitoring a population," the report said. "Data governance is an example of a key area in which there is no existing blueprint – many provider organizations will require hand-holding during this early stage of maturity."
Couple with that reticence is an understanding that the mHealth market is improving quickly.
"(W)hile it may take a few more years for the reimbursement environment to open up to a point where these models are more pervasive, the industry is evolving at a rapid pace," the report concludes. "Devices are becoming smaller, more efficient, less invasive and more affordable every year. The power of algorithmic analysis of data - machine learning, and even self-regulating medical devices – is no longer around the corner; these innovations are being refined and commercialized by industry titans today. What these models will look like, what they will cost, and how well they will work just five years from now is unknowable."

I cheated...
Today was a trip to the store, though, to get some glucosamine-chondroitin to help me with my aching knees. That's the only thing that might mess me up.
And now about yesterday's fill... I'm STILL pretty tight. Drinking my protein shake was almost torture. I was burping all through class as it seemed to drip-drip-drip from my stoma into my stomach. It was misery. My water went down a bit better, but wow... this is tight. OH, and my reflux came back last night. Nice. About 5:30 this morning I was waking up coughing and sputtering. Not large amounts of acid, but still...
So another bandster who is also a nurse recommended taking liquid ibuprofen for the swelling; and I think tonight I will take one of my antacids before going to bed. The liquid Mylanta didn't do a damn thing for me last night. :(
If there's a silver lining in all of this, it's that I'm not hungry again. YAY!

Hey, that's something - and the way I see it - is you're usually so on track - you must have been due a day off. Hope you enjoyed the mini-break (from the routine lol)ReplyDelete
If your knees hurt after running, have someone look at your form. You should land with your feet under your body and not in front of your body, for example.ReplyDelete
Oh and to make the treadmill as hard as the road, you are supposed to put the incline on 10%. Not that I ever did that. I didn't care if it was easier. :D
Mac, I know I tend to run somewhat forward. I catch myself and revert to aligning my body more upright. It's something I will have to pay attention to. I simply attributed it to being about 225 and running -- though the Biggest Loser people seem able to do it...ReplyDelete
I'm sure that Jillian beats anyone who runs with improper form. ;)ReplyDelete
In the beginning stuff is going to hurt but you should be able to recover in a day or two.
Actually, I did the running four days in a row, and as I progressed, I didn't feel so bad. Then again, I WAS taking the liquid ibuprofen because I thought it would help my stomach swelling after my fill. I'm beginning to think the one thing it DID help was my knees. :)ReplyDelete

After the national Census, state legislatures are responsible for carving up state legislative and congressional districts. In 2010, the cast was set, according to a revealing article in Salon about the way in which Republicans worked to ensure a majority in most statehouses and in Congress:
It [the redistricting strategy] proved more effective than any Republican dared dream. Republicans held the U.S. House in 2012, despite earning 1.4 million fewer votes than Democratic congressional candidates, and won large GOP majorities in the Ohio, Wisconsin, Michigan and North Carolina state legislatures even when more voters backed Democrats.
By diluting the Democratic vote in several districts, while drawing the district lines to include more Republicans, an artificial majority can be created that mocks democracy.
The Republicans control both chambers in 36 statehouses. They have total control, including a GOP governor, in 26 states. Of course, they also have majority status in the House of Representatives.
Granted, gerrymandering is just one of the techniques Republicans use to maximize their voters while minimizing Democrats and independents. Their bag of tricks is diverse and profoundly effective. One can even include the Trump and GOP anti-immigration stance as a vehicle for keeping the vote from non-whites. After all, if the Dreamers or other non-white immigrants were to be granted a path to citizenship, they would eventually become voters -- and likely a majority would become Democrats.
Behind Donald Trump's slanderous and baleful rhetoric on denying immigrant status to individuals from non-white nations is also a long-term investment in diminishing the growth of a non-white voter base.
Nonetheless, gerrymandering is perhaps the most powerful tool in ensuring a minority of white voters can prevail when there is a majority of Democratic voters of color and liberal whites. Recently the Pennsylvania Supreme Court struck down the egregious gerrymandering in the statehouse there. According to a February 5 article in Vox:
The Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruled last month that the state's US House of Representatives map was based on a Republican partisan gerrymander that violated the state's constitution — and struck the map down. But the state GOP made a last ditch appeal to the US Supreme Court, hoping justices would stay the decision....
The new Pennsylvania map has the potential to be a very big help to Democrats' efforts to regain control of the House of Representatives in 2018, because the state's old map was one of the most biased toward Republicans in the country.
Given the usual tenacity of the GOP, The Philadelphia Inquirer reported that State Senate President Pro Tempore Joe Scarnati (Republican) would not turn over the state Supreme Court files to the courts that would assist in drawing a fairer US congressional map for Pennsylvania. Moreover, a Daily Kos article reported that a Republican state representative is seeking cosponsors to try and impeach the five state Supreme Court judges who voted for eliminating the gerrymandered redistricting. This is an indication of how seriously Republican legislators and their advisers value the gerrymandering tactic as a means of controlling government at a state and federal legislative level.
A federal judicial panel has called for the elimination of racial gerrymandering in North Carolina and proposed fairer legislative districts, but the Supreme Court issued a partial stay concerning racially discrimantory gerrymandering. Activists are calling for state courts to step in and ensure justice is done in redrawing all district lines to reflect voting populations. The US Supreme Court has two more gerrymandering cases it is considering, in Wisconsin and Maryland. After those rulings, the courts position should be clearer on what distinction it draws between racial and partisan gerrymandering.
A New York Times article reveals that the gerrymandering in Pennsylvania is strictly partisan:
The judges [on the three-judge panel that struck the gerrymandering down in Pennsylvania] noted that the legislator responsible for drawing the map had not disguised his intentions. "I think electing Republicans is better than electing Democrats," said the legislator, Representative David Lewis, a Republican. "So I drew this map to help foster what I think is better for the country."
The Salon article traces the current plague of gerrymandering back to a 2009 Republican Legislative Campaign Committee national conference that featured a presentation on "Redistricting 2010: Preparing for Success." This speech, Salon contends, began a coordinated effort to draw legislative maps to favor Republicans. The result was devastating:
Indeed, even while Democrats sense momentum as we draw closer to the 2018 midterms, the path back to power is steep. Republicans control nearly 70 percent of all state legislative chambers. Democrats have not flipped a congressional seat from red to blue during this entire decade in such ostensible swing states such as North Carolina, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Those states alone currently send 49 Republicans and 20 Democrats to Washington -- a 29-seat edge that's larger, all by itself, than the overall current GOP House majority.
Democrats bled nearly 1,000 state legislative seats nationwide during the Obama era. They hold fewer than 40 percent of the lower-House seats in those five crucial purple states.
The fact that Hillary Clinton beat Donald Trump by more than 3 million votes and still lost the presidency is due to the structure of the electoral college, not gerrymandering. However, that popular vote victory (despite the electoral loss) is symbolic of the evolving demographic trends in the United States, which are moving toward a more diverse -- and less white, Christian and patriarchal -- nation. Republican gerrymandering is a bulwark against the goal of an inclusive democracy.

Xu Xiaonian: real estate can not support this large volume China economic risk is more and more high Xu Xiaonian: to productivity, deleveraging, inventory policy is a global times weekly reporter Yang Kaiqi from Guangzhou downtown pressure on the economy, industrial transformation and upgrade increasingly urgent. The government has introduced a number of policies to capacity, inventory, deleveraging, and guide the development of the real economy to support. But in recent years, the king of the country, the funds continue to flow into the real estate sector, and the goal of the revitalization of the real economy from. In such a contradictory situation, how to treat the government "three go" policy, industrial policy, fiscal policy? In late September, the famous economist, CEIBS professor Xu Xiaonian will attend the era of media "organized by the Silk Road (Dunhuang) International Cultural Expo – Nobel scholars Silk Road forum". The forum held before, Xu Xiaonian times weekly reporter interview, he heavy-hearted in continuous fever, turning to real estate: "internal risk beyond a critical point, there may be a debt crisis, substantial adjustment and capital market." Die Zeit: in recent years, the downward pressure on the economy, economic indicators in the first quarter of this year has improved, downward pressure seems to have eased, you on the current economic situation, how to judge? Xu Xiaonian: a few months ago this year, the economy temporarily improved, this is the implementation of the traditional Keynes policy results, increase in money, credit, government investment projects launched, the economy seems to stabilize, but this is just a symptom not sustainable. May, authorities issued an authoritative speech, the momentum of expansionary policy has been suppressed, but the data from June and July to August, the spirit of the speech has not been seriously implemented. Times weekly: in recent years, the king around the country frequency. People forecast prices will continue to fluctuate, have entered the market. Real estate feast will bring the Chinese society where to go? Xu Xiaonian: the release of money and credit, mostly into the real estate market, the real economy is still depressed. From the data point of view, in July about 400000000000 yuan of new loans, almost all flows to the real estate market in August new loans of $900 billion, of which 670 billion of housing loans. Credit so concentrated in real estate, which is unprecedented, need to be vigilant. A real estate industry is unlikely to support China's economy so large body mass, and rising prices, making the market more and more high risk. If you can not make a significant progress in the "three go" (to the production capacity, deleveraging, inventory), the Chinese economy is more and more internal risk accumulation, the long-term development of the economy is very unfavorable. Once the risk exceeds the critical point, the asset price adjustment, it is likely to lead to corporate and local government debt crisis. Currently on the market is a popular view that China's household sector debt ratio is not high, can be leveraged in the enterprise and government, while increasing the liabilities of residents. If you compare the world's major economies, Chinese resident sector liabilities are not high, but the comparison is not much significance, because Chinese social security is relatively backward, the residents had to General Department相关的主题文章:

My friend passed on the tip to check out Heart-Felt Yarn Wreaths. Once I did I realized that I had seen the name before...possibly on the Winnipeg Etsy Street Team and put it in my head as someone I'd have to check out in the near future. I had figured wreaths would be a good thing to talk about in November...not April but I was wrong. Her wreaths do not scream Christmas at all. They are bright and very Springy. This also makes sense that she will be at the Springs Church Craft Sale this weekend. Her wreaths are a must have for someplace in your home where you need a cheery focal point. We all have that needy wall that is calling out for something happy to fill it. :) Have a peak at her wreaths at the sale this weekend or online at her many internet stops.
I am so enjoying the creativity that this process involves, and love working with others to design something that is special and unique to them. I love custom orders, please do not hesitate to send me a convo with your custom design request!"

In a move which could overturn the applecart of Washington politics by sharply contrasting with official White House dietary policy, former Obama Press Secretary, Robert Gibbs, has been named head of McDonalds' government and public affairs division.
According to a Tuesday statement released by McDonalds, CEO, Steve Easterbrook, said Gibbs' hire brings:
"Experience and outside perspective to McDonald's as we build a more modern, progressive burger company."
Hired by Mr. Obama as a communications advisor in 2004, Mr. Gibbs stayed with Obama for the first two years of his Senate term and joined the Obama White House as its chief spokesman in 2009, remaining until February, 2011. After his departure, Mr. Gibbs assisted the Obama Administration in an "outside capacity" and accommodated Mr. Obama's re-election bid in 2012. Shortly thereafter, Mr. Gibbs co-founded a strategic communications firm, The Incite Agency.
One wonders how Mr. Gibbs will battle the White House while peddling junk food.
Gibbs is an intelligent, experienced communications front man who will rob the White House of any sense of triumph by entering this industry. Moreover, Mr. Gibbs must be a natural contrarian: He is not counted as a member of a closed system of thought, one who learns, purely adapts and accepts the White House guiding principles as true without verification.
To Gibbs' credit, unlike numerous former White House advisers, he is respecting unwritten Washington etiquette by avoiding the irresistible temptation to pen a tell-all memoir and blast his former boss and his policies. By virtue of his loyalty, via shunning the creation of sensationalism and unwanted controversy for this White House through a memoir, Gibbs will avoid any real conflict with Mr. or Mrs. Obama.
The White House is thankful Gibbs' destination is McDonalds: It would be entirely different if Gibbs' fancy led him to ply his craft with Halliburton, ExxonMobil or ConocoPhillips. If this occurred, the White House would be in bits.[washingtonpost.com]

The Dreamer

The Dreamer...
For 23 years this CN conductor has been riding up and down the rails, 4300 miles a month. Doubling the road making 13 or 14 trips a month, 125 miles at a time. Day in and day out, he's been a career railroader. Whether sitting at home by the phone waiting a midnight call or laying over in an away-from-home terminal bunkhouse, railroading has gotten into his blood. It certainly had to; no sane human being would want to do this for a career, would they? Sure the pay is great but when he calculates his take home pay as opposed to the amount of time he spends away from family, friends and other interests, it just didn't add up to much did it? While his seniority now allows him to have vacation at Christmas, he doesn't yet have enough whiskers to warrant summer holidays when his kids are out of school. Maybe next year...
Like many railroaders, his career choice has taken its toll. He hired on as a young kid still wet behind the ears. He was content with the plan to do the job for awhile and then look for something better in a few years time. But then he got married young and started a family, now he was hooped and had to stick around for a bit longer. Soon life was pretty good; the money flowed in between the lay offs. Living out of the suitcase in some fleabag motel in some distant terminal wasn't that bad as long as the kids had their hockey equipment and the wife was wearing a fur. Seniority grew; he got to stay home more and more. Company threats of terminal closures had to be ignored or it would have driven him batty. Rest booked between trips allowed time for the odd social event and fun with the kids in the new back yard swimming pool. Too bad the pool boy, the TV repair man and the vacuum cleaner salesman got to spend more time with the wife than he ever did. Soon the divorce lawyers carved up everything and he was starting all over.
Today standing beside an idling train in the yard, he looks east for his connection with an incoming crew. Now in a new marriage, he has become the dreamer. Every week he thinks up some new outlandish employment scheme that will finally get him off the railroad. He's going to do this and that, honestly there has been some really wild idea's come out of him but none of them ever pan out. He is always constantly pondering his future as a railroader. In a few weeks he will be marching on the picket line with his union embroiled in a bitter contract dispute with the company. If I were a betting man, I'd bet the farm and say he will retire an old broken down man on the left-hand seat of a noisy locomotive. He'll be here for the duration and it will probably eat him up. Guaranteed though he'll still be riding off all those miles every month, dreaming of better and grander things. Railroading will probably be the final calling for him, it has to be, it's in his blood...

You can find running a blog everywhere in today's world. It seems that everywhere you go you see another blog. However, creating a blog that is actually successful requires a good deal of planning while making important decisions. It's always wise to do your homework for anything, and this isn't any different. Use the suggestions and information in the following article so you can design a blog you can be proud of.
Attempt to be available to your readers at all times. Make writing a blog habitual for both you as well as your readers. If your readers feel like they can rely on you, then they will be more consistent in their own commitment to your blog. If you want to give up on blogging, keep in mind that you're not the only one who will be disappointed.
Write new blog posts as often as possible. If you want to grow your readership, it is necessary to inject fresh content regularly. If you do not update your blog very often, internet users will not have any reason to revisit it. Post on your blog once or more each day.
Write a blog about things people want to know about. Don't blog about daily chores that everybody does like washing dishes or making beds. Most readers aren't going to be interested in reading about these chores. Of course, if you can present a unique spin on doing chores, go for it. It should always be clear from your writing why you believe your chosen subject matter would be interesting for your readers. The point of writing a blog is to make people want to read what you write.
Your blog will benefit greatly if you can convince well-known bloggers to make guest posts for you. You will increase the interest in your blog by adding quality content. One good side effect of this strategy is that you'll probably receive a traffic bump, as many bloggers link any guest posts they make to their own blogs. Get several bloggers to do this and you are on your way to running a blog fame.
As you know, running a blog is an important part of the online world. While blogs are started for a variety of reasons, they all have the goal of getting their message across to their readers. Use the information in the piece you have just read to help you craft a blog capable of delivering your message to the right people.

[Games] Pacific Rim the Video Game
Ok, I'm going to write one more about the Pacific Rim, then I'm done. Before this we have the movie, the comic (graphic novel), and now we have the video game.
Actually, I might have been waiting for this. Too bad its kinda disappointing for me. But hey, don't let my own personal opinion and preference deter you from enjoying whatever that is you enjoy. If you love the movie, then why not collect some of its merchandise, a fan is still a fan.
This game is published and developed by Yuke's Co. Ltd, a game company based in Japan. I'm not exactly familiar with this game company but apparently they known for developing WWE Smackdown! game series. They also have experience in developing games based on a movie called The Incredibles.. so..
By the way, this game is developed in a multi platform so there would be for Playstation, Xbox and PC.
The character for both Jaeger and Kaiju is pretty much the same with the one in the movie. There are extra character but it will be included in the urm... DLC (Seriously? A fighting arcade game nowadays have DLC?). Well, back in my days we would just trash the buttons on the controller to get some hidden characters unlocked.
I mean it was the details of the machine monster what makes us drool over the awesomeness of robot vs monster battle. Not to mention that the entire game lacks of a proper background sound or even something as simple as effect sound. The game might as well put the sound of Whack! or Kapoww! each time somebody's punches landed on something.
Overall, I think- does it matter if I try to sugar-coat it? Honestly the game really sucks and what would you expect for a game developed and released almost at the same time as the movie. Hey, the movie alone uses $200 million for a budget. So its understandable that the video game version of Pacific Rim is just another way to fork up some money just to break even.
Good news is that movie director, Guillermo del Toro, said that if the movie is a success (they already started the production of the sequel) then next time he would do his best to ensure the gaming experience to be the same as in the comic and the movie.

French chefs can be obsessive with restaurant ratings. In fact, separate suicide incidents by two French chefs were reported to be connected to their restaurants' Michelin stars.
In cuisine-frenzied Paris, Gault et Millau is a prestigious award for chefs as Michelin stars are for restaurants. Each year, Gault Millau honors the most talented chefs in different regions of France – a recognition that can catapult even a young kitchen professional to gastronomic stardom.
In 2015, the winner of the Trophée Espoir of Ile de France by Gault & Millau didn't go to a French chef. It went to Filipino chef, Aaron Isip, who was then the chef de cuisine of Dix-Huit Restaurant. Luckily, this extraordinary honor given to a Filipino chef didn't incite any riot or horrific event among French chefs.
It started with a phone call from Gault & Millau one evening in May or early June last year. Aaron thought they were phoning to book a table and discuss the menu. When he found out the true purpose of the call, it took some time for the news to sink in.
A week later, the details of the accolade were emailed to Aaron. Alongside his name were other big shot French chef awardees, such as Pascal Barbot of 3- Michelin-star restaurant L'Astrance. He couldn't believe it!
"The Trophée Espoir is given to the chef who gives a new hope to French cuisine in their respective region. I am truly honored to be awarded this trophy and represent Paris, no less," says Aaron.
Who is Aaron and what did he go through to earn this sought-after award in the cut-throat gastronomic scene of Paris? What Filipino dishes has Aaron presented in Paris? Take a read at the Q & A below.
MFB: Please tell us more about your Filipino heritage. What brought you to Paris?
AI: My mother, who passed away in 1990, was from Iloilo. My father was born and raised in Manila like myself, although his family is originally of Kapampangan origin.
I left Manila for Paris in the end of 2004 to pursue culinary studies at Le Cordon Bleu Paris.
MFB: How did you get started in food?
AI: I always liked food and cooking since high school but never really thought of pursuing a career in the restaurant or hospitality industry. I studied Marketing Management at De La Salle University and did an internship in events after my graduation. I realized then that it wasn't for me. I really wanted to become a chef one day.
My first job in Paris was a 6-month internship at then 2-Michelin star restaurant Apicius in the 8th arrondissement of Paris.
MFB: How did you land chef de cuisine of Dix-Huit? What was it like to work there?
AI: I was approached by the owner who wanted to open it with me. It was very hard due to the small team I had and the big number of clients we served. Nonetheless, it was a great learning experience and it was an opportunity for me to put my style of food out there in the very competitive restaurant industry of Paris.

MFB: What are the greatest challenges you faced as a chef in Paris? What do you consider as your greatest achievements?
AI: The hardest years for me were the formative years when I was still at the bottom of the culinary ladder as a commis de cuisine. Some of my direct bosses were younger than me, and as a foreigner, I had to prove my worth doubly to them to earn their respect.
Being a chef de cuisine in Paris alone is probably the best achievement I could get. I never imagined being a head of a kitchen team of French cooks in Paris.
MFB: Please tell us about your involvement with Paris for the Philippines. Does PFTP organize Filipino food events?
Paris for the Philippines came about during the Yolanda Typhoon disaster. Some Filipina friends of mine were very enthusiastic and eager to help our fellow Filipinos who were victims of this tragedy. I then connected them to my dear Tita (Aunt) who had philanthropic inclinations – Victoria Aquino-Benoit. After a few meetings, we all formed the group and did two successful food events to raise money. We donated the proceeds via our partner, Gawad Kalinga. We helped Gawad Kalinga build several houses for some of the victims.
MFB: About how many Filipinos live in Paris? Are there or had there been any establishment showcasing Filipino food?
I don't know the exact number of Filipinos in Paris but it surely isn't as big as other European cities like Milan or Barcelona. I have done several events in partnership with the Philippine government and their French counterparts, such as the cocktail food event/Philippine reception of Festival de Cinema of 2008 when the featured country was the Philippines. I also did a food demonstration for Exposition Philippines – An Archipelago of Exchange at the Quai Branly Museum last 2013, where I featured my style of French cooking with Filipino flavors. It was a project of the Philippine Department of Agriculture in cooperation with the Philippine Embassy in Paris and the Quai Branly Museum.
Unfortunately, Paris does not have a Filipino restaurant anymore. Hopefully one will open soon again.
MFB: What do you think are the reasons for the absence or lack of Filipino food establishments in Paris?
AI: Several reasons actually. One is the lack of market for the food, and the lack of marketing for Filipino cuisine. Another is presentation. It needs a little boost of modernity and proper execution so that it can compete with its other Asian counterparts but it should also not be categorized the as the other Asian cuisines as it is very unique – the only real Asian-Latin cuisine.
MFB: What are the chances of Filipino cuisine hitting the mainstream in Paris?
AI: Pretty good actually. It will take some time but the French will love it for sure.
MFB: Have you ever showcased a Filipino-food-inspired dish in one of your restaurants?
AI : Yes, several actually. The best example would probably be my version of Lechon (roast suckling pig). I served it whole for a private function, slow roasted and served it with steamed buns, home made atchara and a peanut sauce. Let's just say the only thing left afterwards was the head of the pig.
AI: My version of Kinilaw was also a big hit. I made different versions of it but never removed it from my menu.

MFB: What are your plans?
AI: I'm planning a project back in the Philippines and cannot divulge any information yet but once I get the ball rolling, I will surely give you an update.
MFB: What advice can you give to aspiring Filipino chefs in Paris?
AI: Travel as much as you can when you have the opportunity. The inspiration you will get will be endless. Be it in the Philippines, or wherever else in the world depending on the style of your cooking. Never lose your passion for food and cooking. Always remember that at the end of the day, cooking is about sharing our passion to other people.

Starvation or poor nutrition weakens the immune system and makes organisms more susceptible to disease. This reflects in part the need for adequate energy stores. But Mieulet et al. provide evidence that sufficient uptake of the amino acid arginine is required for mouse macrophages to respond to bacterial lipopolysaccharide, which binds to Toll-like receptors that initiate innate immune responses. Macrophages deprived of arginine appeared to have a deficit in the activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) that mediate the immune response. In cultured cells deprived of arginine, the protein kinase TPL-2 (tumor-promoting locus 2, a MAPK kinase kinase) was associated to a greater extent with protein phosphatase 2A, leading to dephosphorylation and inactivation of TPL-2. In mice, deprivation of arginine also reduced MAPK activation and the consequent production of tumor necrosis factor–α. Arginine thus appears to have multiple important roles in the innate immune response: It serves as a substrate for the synthesis of nitric oxide as part of cellular response to bacterial infection, and it maintains a key signaling pathway that allows macrophages to fight infection effectively.

Al Davis, July 4, 1929 – October 8, 2011
As a life long Raiders fan I have mixed emotions towards Al Davis. When I was a child he was just a guy with a big smile that kept saying "just win baby" or he was preaching about the Raiders "commitment to excellence". You really don't think of owners, GM's and head coaches, You think of your favorite players and them scoring touchdowns and the Team winning games. So my early experience seeing/hearing Al didn't really mean much to me. I remember him hiring Art Shell and it being a big deal because he was the first African American head coach, this was a typical Davis move based on loyalty, Shell was a Hall of famer and a true Raider and Davis loved him.
You hear a lot of stories of Davis's love and loyalty for his players, but there are also stories about him acting like a scorned lover such as the situation regarding Marcus Allen. Allen was maybe the greatest Raider Running back and amid contract disputes Allen held out till the last minute every year. Things came to a head when Davis forced Art shell to bench Allen, calling him a "cancer to the team" and claiming he "had his own agenda and asterisk will be next to his name for all time" all because of Allen who was an NFL MVP disagreeing with what Davis thought was fair
As i got older and I really started to understand the complexities of the game did I really got to see what Davis was about. While I will always love his passion for the game, I will loath his decision making and his stubbornness for believing he was the only one who could guide the Raiders.
Davis is a legend and his impact was revolutionary to the league. He started the "vertical passing game" he went from Coach to GM to Owner and ran his team the way he saw fit at all times. This is part of the problem I have always had with Al, He fired Mike Shanahan for not doing things his way and ignoring play calls Davis had sent down from the owners box, He traded John Gruden because he felt he was getting to much credit for building a winner. He intervened on everything he could and it took its toll on the entire organization.
Davis helped the Raiders win 3 superbowls but he has hindered the organization more than he helped in the last 25 years. He drafted based on speed not skill or acumen. He wanted athletes with great attributes; it was like he was playing a video game. This led to a ton of questionable picks led by Todd Maranovich and going thru Jamarcus Russell, the Raiders have picked in the top 10 every year for about 10 years and the only one to have really done much is Darren McFadden, and he took some time to develop into what he is today.
The bottom line is every one will have an opinion on Al Davis, He will always be a huge part of the NFL legacy and he is well deserved member of the hall of fame. His life and contribution to the League and the Game should be celebrated. As a Raider fan I just wish he had stepped aside about 12 years ago so.
In the about me section of my blog I had "waiting for Al Davis to Die" listed as one of my hobbies, That was callous and wrong of me to write and I regret it, He loved the same team I do so much and it was his right to do what he saw fit, no matter what I think.

In the world of packaging, a lot has changed in a short time. Today's packaging is not the packaging of a generation ago, and if you ask anyone in the industry why, the reason you'll hear over and over again is the same: innovation.
In a recent Packaging World article, several industry pros discussed the role of innovation, with one stating, "Innovation is an imperative business choice to compete in the global economy. If you are not competitive with new ideas, you are not going to win." Another stated the need to "challenge everything that was done in the past…so we together innovate and create packaging solutions that can preserve and contribute to…creating a sustainable future." Challenging, indeed—but it seems the industry is up for the challenge.
At BDI, we are huge proponents of innovation and technology, in every industry, and we love taking a look at products and companies that represent this well. Take, for example, the magnetic capping headsets that Warner Electric has created for bottle capping applications. Serving a repair and product development function, as well as helping to reduce the width of a bottle cap, they are great examples of the innovative capping technology this company is known for. Benefits of this specific product include smooth torque technology that prevents over-tightening, reduced wear on bottling line equipment, maintenance savings, longer service life, and no damage to closures. Many Warner Electric clients have benefitted from the technology and innovation of this product.
It's just one example of a company taking the innovation bull by the horns, and marching to the future of the industry.

The elephant in the room
The future was laid there, right in front of everyone's eyes. If you wanted to see it, you would have. While the media screamed, the streets whispered and, no matter how loud of a scream, the results came out and the whisperers decided.
Departing from New York, now also known as "the bubble", the plan was to stop briefly at several battleground cities while making the way down to Tampa, Florida. It is key to say that, before departure, the election results seemed irreversible and set on stone.
The first stop was Philadelphia, Pennsylvania: one day before the elections, the streets seemed like any other ordinary day. Little did they know that 24 hours later, the final decision would partially rest on their shoulders.
The streets were empty the night before, the bars had close to none costumers and TVs played football. No one was willing to talk about it, most wanted a way out of the conversation. Tampa alone holds a quarter of Florida's registered Republicans and legend has it that Florida always votes for the winning candidate. But this elections were irregular: plenty of people weren't convinced by either candidate, even though they both raised strong feelings in voters. The outcome was unpredictable.
Tampa is as purple as it gets, an all time battleground, and an unpredictable melting pot of socialist conservatives, hispanic conservatives, and all the possible mixes in between. It has all different levels of income, colors, races, religions and political opinions. It is part of the I-4 corridor, a region encompassing St. Petersburg through Daytona Beach, also the region that received most attention, with many political analysts arguing that it would all come down to these states.
The City knew the burden it carried, how all eyes were placed on them, how they might be the ones making the final decisions. Being under such pressures in one of the most emotional political races in recent years worked backwards: nobody said anything and, if they did, it was coded, between whispers.
"If you gonna come here, you gonna do the right thing!" A small group of African-Americans screamed at the entrance of a polling station near the University of South Florida, as they held "Patrick Murphy" signs.
"People don't know what they want, they'd rather starve before supporting a pro-abortion politician, or marihuana legalization", a man said at a bar on the night before elections, "When you put politics in the territory of morality, it all becomes a mess... How can you argue when someone says that babies should be killed before birth?"
There is a world, inside an outside of the New York-Los Angeles bubble, that silently awaited for recognition, solidarity and the outrage of these cities towards the conditions they have endured for years. A vast majority of people who have seen their family's economy drop to the ground, who fear their identity is being stolen. Dozens of interviewed citizens debated within themselves: 'Which is the lesser evil? Should I go for change or continue with the conditions we've endured for years?'
Wether or not the outcome will please the reasoning behind their vote is a whole different story. What cannot be stated is that those fears and anxieties are false: they truly and undeniably exist within a great portion of North American citizens. If they are, or not, based on measurable facts, does not change their existence and power.
Before the day of elections, things were already shaping up, 50% had already voted and Hillary Clinton was tightly above Donald Trump. But, as the day went on, it became more and more obvious that things were not what they seemed (from the New York perspective). One thing became quickly apparent: these elections were not based on rationality on either end.
It doesn't really matter who or what is to blame. When elections are so peculiar, it is hardly one single element that carries all the weight. Maybe the media was to blame for turning a presidential election into a personal war, where intimate details became headlines quicker than the substance of the matter. Maybe Clinton's campaign underestimated Black and Latino vote. Maybe feminism, racism, populism, authoritarianism and all other isms that humanity has struggled with for hundreds of years. Maybe it is as simple as historical cycles.
The one thing that was certain is that some were voting with the head while others were voting with the guts and when these type of organs play a role into decisive moments, they cannot speak to each other. And when the two clashed, it seemed like a reminder of a teenage summer love: no matter how much facts, numbers and reasoning a mother tries to throw at it, the path is set and what will be, will be. Even if it ends in tears and a broken heart.
Florida is so complex, with many layers of emotion, contradiction, insecurities and determinations. If anyone would have judged by listening to the radio, Trump's victory would've been crystal clear yet, depending on where one stopped and asked, the swing was more evident. Travelling around all of Tampa, from Fish Hawk to Lake Magdalene, stopping by mayor polling places in between, the difference between candidates tightened, the air changed, the landscape changed. People cheered, more and more, until the "silent majority" stopped being silent, the elephant left the room, and the obvious became unstoppable.

Four Ways to Simplify a Mobile Marketing Campaign
Verizon's smartphone could change the mobile marketing landscape.
Verizon's smartphone could change the mobile marketing landscape.
Verizon's launch of the Motorola Droid phone is definitely going to make the mobile world a lot more interesting. Sporting a form factor similar to the iPhone (but with a nifty slide-out keyboard), a $199 price tag, Google's Android 2.0 OS, and (probably most important) running on Verizon's network, the Droid seems like the first new smartphone with the possibility of actually giving Apple a run for its money.
Droid's new entry into the market will probably be the next big shot in the arm that mobile marketing's been looking for. Sure, the iPhone's cool and all (and seemingly ubiquitous), but Verizon has many loyal subscribers who haven't wanted to make the switch. In fact, as of Q1 2009, Verizon had 86.5 million subscribers, over 8 million more than second-place AT&T. And many of these folks have been chomping at the bit for a phone like the Droid.
With all these new potential users, it's a given that more money is going to be spent on mobile marketing in the coming years. Mobile search has been the most obvious candidate for mobile marketing spends, and pundits are now predicting mobile marketing spending in the billions by 2012. If mobile isn't a part of your marketing mix now, it probably will be in the coming years.
But what's the best way to develop a mobile marketing strategy that works? It's simple: begin by realizing that mobile is different.
Why? Because mobile marketing isn't about interrupting the consumer's media stream with advertising like most traditional ad models. Mobile users hate mobile advertising that they haven't asked for. Instead, building a successful mobile marketing model relies on realizing that mobile users are…well…mobile. They're not reading a publication. They're not browsing the Web. They're not passively watching TV. Instead, they're on the go, and reaching them with your messages means fitting in with this simple fact. It's why mobile search works as a marketing medium: just like with desktop search, consumers encountering your messages in a mobile search situation are doing so because they're actively engaged in looking for the kinds of products and services you're offering.
If you're going to develop mobile marketing that works, you have to pay attention to four simple things:
Make no mistake about it: mobile marketing is different than any other form of marketing because it's the context that matters as much as the content. As we move forward in our efforts to reach consumers with mobile marketing, developing campaigns that address these four simple questions will help you develop mobile marketing strategies that work.

We deliberately chose a name that would remind us of both our origins and aspirations as architects. 'Matter'—from Latin materia, 'material'—in its current usage suggesting something beyond just physical stuff. A reference to the Matterhorn (a nod to Alfred's Swiss roots), and Herbert Matter (an exemplary information designer). 'Practice'—from Greek praktikos, 'concerned with action'—an arguably less self-conscious association with necessary professional service. Practicing also means applying ourselves.
With our clients and collaborators, we produce spatial design solutions that are materially rich, unique, and practical.
Co-directed by Sandra Wheeler and Alfred Zollinger, MATTER's work encompasses architecture, exhibition design, installations, furnishings, and proposals for civic engagement within the public environment.
MATTER has received top honors for exhibition design from the Society of Environmental Graphic Designers, was a finalist of the PS1/MoMa Young Architects Program, and was awarded an Independent Research Project Grant from the New York State Council of the Arts. They are winners of the competitions Gimme Shelter: Urban Shade Structures for the City of Phoenix, Sukkah City, Times Square Alliance Public Art Program, and AIA New Practices New York. MATTER's work has been featured in FRAME, Interior Design, Architectural Record, the New York Times, and the publications Transmaterial 3 and New Exhibition Design 02.
Prior to co-founding MATTER, Sandra Wheeler gained experience designing and building projects—ranging from indie theater sets to corporate campus buildings—for noted architecture and interdisciplinary design offices in United States and Canada, where she grew up.
Originally trained as a precision machinist in his native Switzerland, Alfred Zollinger has extensive practical experience in manufacturing and construction in both Europe and the United States. He is also Associate Professor of Architecture and Interior Design at Parsons, currently directing the MFA ID program, after several years leading the design/build Masters of Architecture studio The Design Workshop.
Both are Registered Architects, and first collided as graduates of the M.Arch studio at Cranbrook Academy of Art.
The work of this practice is reflective of the talent and dedication of many people. Current and past MATTER team members are:
Elizabeth Beecherl, Chelsea Crisafulli, Ken Kinoshita, Parker B Lee, Christopher Malloy, Karina Moya, Sean Barbe
John Brandes, Christine Chang, Danae Colomer, Geraldo Danneman, Hannes Decanq, Duff DuFresne, Shawn Faulkner, Paul Freudenburg, Del Hardin Hoyle, Lindsey Jones, Ryan Kahen, Ina Ko, Emily Mak, Bahare Nadjafi, Devin Rutz, Julia Scholzen, Julia Torres, Takuya Toyama, Samuel Weston, Eri Yamagata
And many others who have joined us on specific competition and fabrication teams.

Wande Coal Interview: "There is no beef with Don Jazzy" (Photos)
Wande Coal, the original Black Diamond, was in London last week for the GTBank GTcrea8 free concert held on Friday 15th November 2013 at the indigo2 and made it known there is no beef between him and Don Jazzy.
Wande Coal sat down with Adesope Olajide of Factory78 for the Vox Africa live special promoting the concert and when asked about the publicized beef between he and super producer Don Jazzy which started because of copyright issues surrounding the song "Babyface".
Mr. WC said:
"Everybody knows that i'm black diamond and it's something I always wanted to do, so I decided to create my own label.
The song was supposed to be on my album but since we fell out it was just void so it's not like it went against any contractual agreement.
But there's no animosity. I've still got love for Don Jazzy."
The singer even joked that he would probably sign Yvonne Nelson to his label.
This should also put to rest the rumours that he has signed to D'banj's DB Records.
Watch a clip from Wande Coal interview below where he made it clear there's no beef between him and Don Jazzy.
