The fourth edition of the BIO Latin America Conference was a great success, revealing once again its importance and impact in the life sciences sector of Latin America
SÃO PAULO, SEPTEMBER 2018 – Held on September 4 and 5 in São Paulo, the BIO Latin America Conference 2018 provided participants with activities that fostered, at the same time, the establishment of professional ties and the development of the life sciences and biotechnology industry on the Latin American continent.
The BIO Latin America Conference is the result of a partnership between Biominas Brasil and the Biotechnology Innovation Organization (BIO). The event was supported by important private and public players, including Pfizer as PREMIUM Sponsor; Global Innovation Policy Center (GIPC) and Janssen as GOLD Sponsors; AbbVie, Apex-Brasil, Biolab, Biomm and BNDES as SILVER Sponsors; Amgen and Instituto SENAI de Inovação em Biossintéticos as BRONZE Sponsors; Crop Life International, Di Blasi Parente & Associados, EMBRAPII, Natura, Phytobios, Servier, SP Law, Synova Health as CONFERENCE Sponsors; Sanofi, SEBRAE and TECPAR as Institutional Supporters; besides several other media partners also relevant to the success of the event.
The 2018 edition brought together 621 attendees from the life sciences industry of more than 325 companies and 21 different countries. This year 70% of the participants belonged to the executive level of their respective institutions. As highlights of this notorious attendance, we can mention the presence of representatives of government agencies, such as ANVISA, Apex-Brasil, BNDES, FINEP, INPI, MCTIC, MDIC, Ministry of Health, and industry associations, such as ABBI, ABIMED, ABPI, ABRADIMEX, ALLBIOTECH, ANAHP, CIB, CNI, FIESP, Grupo FarmaBrasil and Interfarma. The diverse profile of the participants, coming from areas such as human health, animal health, industrial and agricultural biotechnology, was fundamental to the success of the discussions and contributed to the multidisciplinary character of the event.
The Conference was also honored by important Latin American neighbors from the main life sciences markets of the region (Argentina, Colombia, Guatemala, Mexico, Panama, Paraguay, Peru and Uruguay). Representatives from each of these countries had the opportunity to exchange experiences with actors from other regions, presenting the reality of their markets in search of partners for their development and continuous growth. In addition, they had access to the experiences of the Brazilian industry and government, besides holding numerous business meetings with other participants. It should be noted that the event also attracted representatives from 12 other countries, from regions such as North America, Europe and Asia.
BIO Latin America 2018 provided more than 710 face-to-face meetings through BIO's One-on-One Partnering™ system. In addition, the participants were able to follow an intense program of debates, with 9 Thematic Sessions and 1 Fireside Chat.
The opening ceremony was hosted by the organizers of the event, represented by Mrs. Joanne Duncan, President of Membership and Business Operations at BIO, and Eduardo Emrich, President and CEO at Biominas Brasil. Both highlighted the opportunity that the event offers for cooperation between the various actors in the biotechnology and life sciences segment. The CEO of Biominas also took the opportunity to present the institution's new positioning in the sector, which aims on being broader and more effective.
The program covered important topics of the life sciences sector, such as: Healing, Feeding, and Fueling the World – LatAm's Role in Driving Biotechnology Innovation; Industry 4.0, Big Data, Artificial Intelligence, and Gene Editing; Sustainable Health Future – Promoting Innovation and Equitable Access; Regulatory Environment for Biologics; Intellectual Property Protection in the 21st Century – Tools for Investment and Growth; Corporate Venture & Innovation Labs; Entrepreneurship; Advances in Bio-economy through Synthetic Biology; and Promise of Agricultural Biotechnology for a Sustainable World.
The event also had 2 startup competitions, totaling 20 pitch presentations to the audience and to a board of experts (investors and companies) that evaluated their potential (innovation and business model).
On the first day, the conference hosted the Demoday of the "BioStartup Lab – Round Interfarma 02", in which the top 10 startups of this acceleration program presented their pitch, resulting in the following winners: 1st place: PRO THERAPEUTICS; 2nd place: IN SITU TERAPIA CELULAR; 3rd place: SIGNAL; and Most Dedicated Startup: IMPLANTCELL.
On the second day, another 10 startups were selected for the Startup Stadium competition, presenting their ideas/technologies. As a result, the startup BIOSOLVIT was victorious and won as a prize a complimentary ticket to the 2019 BIO International Convention, in the US.
Finally, BIO Latin America 2018 also witnessed the announcement of an important partnership signed between Biominas Brasil, Interfarma and Anvisa, which foresees actions to bring Anvisa closer to the startup environment, working together to further promote innovation in Brazil.

It is one of the most frustrating elements in my life: when I write of books, I can pull off quite a decent job. Sometimes, anyway. I have an idea where I'm going, I may contradict myself, I may be getting overly mad or enthusiastic, I may waffle poetic, but it works, doesn't it? Why, then, when I talk, do I sound like an angry hairy confused half-wit. Just this past Monday, the Bookbabblers and I interviewed the great young writer Joshua Cohen. I asked him to come, prepared not one, two or three, but five pages of questions and remarks and sounded like a vaguely drunk confused old man, not quite there, but too hopped up on drink not to talk now and then. Or in a discussion about Auster on Bookbabble, where I let fellow debaters get away with amazingly nonsensical arguments. Or when I explain poetry to fellow students. Next Monday, I might have an opportunity to speak to Mr. Charles Altieri. I will prepare, think about it, and when I'm there next week, I'll look and sound like a confused homeless person expounding on UFOs and government conspiracies. Feck. Gobshite. Anyway. Back to my writing.

Judith Butler: I distance myself from this complicity with racism
Butler refused to accept a prize for civic courage at this year's CSD in Berlin, pointing out outright racism and racist assumptions in what seems a very progressive event. She goes on to enumerate organizations that would have merited the award. For a more thorough discussion, go here.
Paul Celan, Ingeborg Bachmann: Correspondence
Bachmann, Ingeborg; Paul Celan (2008), Herzzeit: Der Briefwechsel, Suhrkamp
[English translation: Bachmann, Ingeborg; Paul Celan (2010), Correspondence, Seagull Books
Translated by Wieland Hoban
2023. That's the year until which the legendary correspondence between Paul Celan and Ingeborg Bachmann was supposed to be blocked not just for publication but even for scholars. In biographies, the relationship of the two most important German post-war poets used to be a mysterious affair. Everybody knew about it, people knew when it started and when it ended, but the details, how and why it broke off, for example, were shrouded in mystery. Everybody waited for 2023, including yours truly. Thus, when the heirs decided to publish the exchange of letters in 2008, it was nothing less than a literary sensation, one of the most exciting publications of the decade, and probably one of the bestselling volumes of letters published in recent German literary history. The book Herzzeit: Ingeborg Bachmann-Paul Celan. Der Briefwechsel. consists of every extant letter between the two, plus all the letters that Bachmann and Celan's wife Gisèle Celan-Lestrange exchanged and the handful of letters between Celan and Bachmann's lover of four years, Max Frisch. Together, all these letters paint a vivid and devastating picture of two writers, who were both perfect for one another, and utterly wrong. Toward the end of their lives, both suffered from depressions, both were institutionalized for one reason or another, and when they died, they died alone. Celan chose to kill himself in 1970, and Bachmann burned in her apartment in 1973, numbed by her addiction to pills and booze. Neither death is part of the Bachmann/Celan letters, although the decomposing breath of despair is audible behind quite a few of the passionate, dark, extraordinary words between these two masters of literature.
Instead, we witness two great writers rising to fame, neither able to escape public detractors and critical backlashes in a German and Austrian culture that Bachmann, in the title of one of her best known stories, described as "between murderers and madmen". Bachmann's travails as a woman in a male-dominated society and Celan's as a Jew writing in the language of those who murdered his parents were forcibly different, however, as was their pain. The letters chart two lonely lives and a relationship destroyed by misunderstandings, suspicions and a deep-seated bitterness. There is no word to describe what a moving and utterly engrossing reading experience this book provides, especially if you are partial to Bachmann's or Celan's work. Lucky for those who can't read German, this searing, magnificent book has now been translated into English as Correspondence by Wieland Hoban, and contains, like the German edition, the Bachmann/Celan letters as well as the Celan-Lestrange/Bachmann letters and the letters between Max Frisch and Celan (though, hopefully, the commentary and endnotes are better than those in the German edition). This book is highly recommended. You cannot possibly be disappointed by it, especially if you are familiar with these writers' literary output, each of which left the world a completely original, masterful, and highly influential body of work. The letters move from youthful heartbreak and poetical exuberance to the destructive later exchanges between two people who cannot trust one another although they are, until the end, drawn to each other. It's not a book you read and shelve. It's a book to read and reread, a book to treasure.
Paul Celan, primarily a poet, published more than seven collections of poetry that are unequaled among German 20th century poetry. He also translated poetry, from French poets like Rene Char or Rimbaud to Russian ones like Yesenin and Mandelstam. In the collected works, his translations add up to two thick volumes, and are consistently amazing, almost overpowering, every bit as strong as his poetry. The third kind of work that Celan is known for is poetological prose, especially his Meridian speech which he held upon receiving the prestigious Büchnerpreis. Celan was a poet through and through. Incapable of doing much other work, he threw himself into writing (and late in his life, teaching), publishing his first book in 1948. Celan was a survivor of the Shoah, originally from the Romanian province of Bukovina, a region where, due to the fact that until 1918 it had been part of the Austrian Empire, German-speaking immigrants lived. Shortly after the Germans invaded, the Jews in the province were rounded up and shipped to internment camps and labor camps. Celan's parents died in the camps while Celan survived and eventually moved to Vienna. In Vienna he met the 21-year old Ingeborg Bachmann, at the time studying philosophy, psychology and German literature (in 1949, at 23, she published her dissertation on Martin Heidegger) and the two hit it off almost immediately. The first letter in the book is a poem by Celan dedicated to Bachmann on her 22nd birthday, called In Ägypten, one of his most beautiful early poems.
Their love affair didn't last, it ended in 1951, for reasons that none of the two spelled out in the letters, but reading closely, one finds, in these letters and the heartbroken, bitter ones that followed, the same net of accusations and suspicions that would continue to haunt their relationship. When, in 1957, Celan (who was by that time married to Gisèle Lestrange) and Bachmann resumed their affair, it ended for very similar reasons and was followed by the same incriminations, the same bitterness, although this time, it was laced with a despair that was to be deadly to both. From the start, Bachmann and Celan were wildly attracted to one another, but wary of the passion and the darkness they sensed in the other and in themselves. Meetings were postponed, letters were not sent for fear of creating misunderstandings, for fear of crowding or overwhelming the other. Hot intimate letters were often answered by cold, distant, careful letters, regardless who wrote which. We as readers find, in the thicket of letters, two people who see each other's hurt and pain, and want to help one another, but neither knows the best means to go about it. One aspect is especially remarkable: from the start, these letters are all about Celan. With a few, very moving exceptions, most of the letters discuss Paul Celan and his mental problems or public issues. As early as November 1949, Bachmann writes of the "lostness" of Celan who "drifts out into a great ocean". This is the ocean of a traumatized survivor who uses his murderers' language to construct a new life in poetry, and who uses poetry as a place to encounter other people, a lostness that never left him, and that led to the end of not only both of their affairs but also of their friendship. Loneliness was Celan's fate, despite his insistence, as a poet, on the power of poetry to connect people.
Poems, for Celan, are places where people meet, and his use of language in the poetry is less a matter of stylistics than a reconstruction of reality in language. Celan's writing is incredibly direct, and possessed of an almost obsessive honesty and concreteness. This is the reason why it hurt him so much when, in the course of the so-called Goll-Affair, he was eventually publicly attacked not as a person, but as a poet, and his work derided as cheap second-rate imitations. Published in Germany, a country that was governed by a former member of the Nazi party, his poetry, starting in the mid-1950s, became a target for bigots and antisemites of all stripes, and the angrier and more desperate Celan became, the more he rejected friends and acquaintances unless they shared his anger to the letter. The climate at the time didn't just affect him: bigotry and philistinism was on the move and a great many brilliant, sensitive people suffered. A year after Celan's suicide, fellow survivor, friend and brilliant critic Péter Szondi, for example, chose to kill himself as well. In Celan's post-war life, as his professional career and fame as a poet started to gain traction, winning him some of the most prestigious prizes of German literature, selling well, his personal life started to deteriorate; more exposure came to mean more attacks, until he finally, as his wife wrote in a letter to Bachmann, chose "the loneliest death".
Celan, though often wrongly thought to be obscure and unreadable, combined Jewish and German literary traditions, restacked the stock of German vocabulary, reached for archaic words as well as combined words into a new creation. He was sincerely interested in language and its power to convey an image of a world gone awry, a world standing on its head, feet into the air (this image, from his Meridian speech, is borrowed from Büchner's Lenz). But Celan's humanity doesn't 'walk on air'. The air beneath our feet is threatening, destabilizing. Pascal wrote "Le silence éternel de ces espaces infinis m'effraie", and this is the kind of air he refers to. In the 1960s, he couldn't be further from contemporary phenomena like postmodern irony. He wrote with a straight face, recognizing the urgency of poetry and the need for a common language between people in a disintegrating world. His work, highly dependent on the work of such thinkers as Martin Buber and Gershom Scholem, and integrating rather than excising the influence even of writers like Martin Heidegger, didn't shy away from mysticism, but religion and spiritual content didn't lead Celan's poetry away from the real world. Instead, as his work became denser with mystical and linguistic difficulties, it also became more precise. He shed the rhetorical flourishes of his romantic early poetry and aimed straight for truth, refining his language and his poems into small, concentrated doses of signification. Poetry, for Celan, was not about saying things in a beautiful way, but about saying things, as good and precise as possible, and colloquial language just wasn't precise enough. As his work moved toward denseness and a difficult clarity, it also moved from the melancholy of his first book into the despair and bitterness of his last books.
In his Meridian speech, Paul Celan references Büchner's Lenz, the eponymous character of Büchner's astonishing novella. Lenz' story is one of constant decline, he's shown to be a man at odds with reality and yet obsessed by it, a man with a murderous fantasy who tries to kill himself repeatedly. Lenz ends with a statement of resignation that is among the most searing and affecting in literary history. Lenz lives on, empty, seemingly rational and social, but really hollowed out and finished, living on because he can't die, finishing the business of life, completely and utterly resigned. It is his search for truth, his passionate madness that precedes this resignation, however, that has entranced and inspired writers for decades. The Lenz figure also unites Celan and Bachmann. Bachmann, in her own acceptance speech for the Büchnerpreis made use of Büchner's novella, as well, and also used the image of walking on one's head. This is not even remotely the only connection of Bachmann's and Celan's writing, but it is the only aspect where the two meet as equals, equal thinkers and writers. References, as with the whole exchange of letters in Correspondence, are mostly slanted towards Celan. Celan's weight as a genius poet is obvious everywhere. His metaphors surface time and again in Bachmann's work, especially in her only finished novel Malina and her early poem Dunkles zu sagen. The latter is most significant as far as these letters in Correspondence are concerned. It is a poem dealing with the Orpheus and Eurydike myth. But while in the myth, the man comes to retrieve the woman from death's grasp and loses her when he looks back to ensure she follows him out of the underworld, Bachmann reverses the roles. The poem begins with the words "Like Orpheus, I…" And indeed, in their relationship, it is, time and again, Bachmann, who reaches back to drag Celan into the light.
We know how the darkness encroached upon Bachmann in the 1960s, how she had to deal with attacks and depression, but in Celan's letters, there's not a trace of this. He is the demure, sensitive part while Bachmann organizes meetings, fights for his reputation, calls publishers and, letter after letter, tries to assuage his worries and anxieties. Her own poetry, far more than his, often has a skewered hymnal bent to it. It seems like public poetry, poetry that asks to be declaimed, small, volatile declarations from a vanished world. The poems themselves are sometimes rhymed, sometimes not, but are all deeply and explicitly rooted in a German literary tradition that contains both Romantic poets such as Klopstock and Eduard Mörike, and such modern poets as Wilhelm Müller, Georg Trakl and Stefan George. All these poets are highly important for her work, but she's more elusive. Her poetry (as Celan's) is often called "hermetic", by which critics mean to say that you need a 'clue' to 'unlock' the meaning. Alas, that is not the case, but one can see the difficulty of her work in the fact that her poems seem supple and beautiful and clear on the surface, but are actually composed of layered, almost imaginistic, metaphors, which, like small explosive devices, detonate the more often one rereads her work. Between her first and second volume, this denseness of metaphor increased, and that second volume is a complex, shifting, thorny, but completely alluring piece of poetry. And it is, like Celan's fully committed, as art, but also as a personal statement. In one of the few post-1961 poems, she writes
This sentence is not written by someone
who doesn't underwrite
(note that the last word in German is unterschreibt and is actually closer to the word "(to) sign"). Young as she is (she published the second (and last) volume when she was only 30 years old), she created, in her 70-odd poems, an influential, original, extraordinary body of work.
In Celan's letters, there's nothing of this. Bachmann frequently alludes to or talks about his work, but he does nothing like that. When Celan talks about Bachmann's poetry, he treats it as an extension of her person, its beauty an aspect of Bachmann's, like her hair. He isn't the only man in her life to do this, in fact. As we read her letters, and Max Frisch's and see the facsimile of a broadsheet that Hans Weigel, a former friend and lover put out with the intent of attacking her, we gain the impression of her as an embattled but strong woman, looking, like Celan, for a true language, but despairing of finding it. Nowhere in the whole book does Celan reflect this problem, her troubles; he never speaks to her as an equal, never helps her, consoles her, attempts to drag her into daylight. Instead, he finds something to reproach her with whatever she does, especially after they break up for the second time, and the public detractors of his work become more vocal. Without debate, without an attempt to make it up to her, he just expects her to support him, and he expects her to do it in the exact way he tells her to. The public attacks on Celan's work really take off with a review of his 1959 volume Sprachgitter by a critic called Böcker, a review that Celan, his wife and many other readers (including yours truly) considered implicitly antisemitic and explicitly bigoted. It referred to as well-worn antisemitic clichés as the homeless Jew. Böcker explicitly denied that poems like Todesfuge have any relationship to reality beyond the author's (Jewish) cleverness. It's a short review, crammed with resentment and idiocy, by a critic who shouldn't have written about literature in the first place. But stupid critics abound, as do hateful ones, and a few kind words by his friends might have floated Celan's boat here, so Celan, hurt and anguished, sent a copy of the review to his friends in the hope of obtaining support and succor. The answers of his friends were not as expected, however.
When he did not receive an immediate reply from Bachmann, who was busy and en route from one engagement to the next, he wrote to Max Frisch, with whom Bachmann had entered a relationship shortly before. Max Frisch is arguably the most important Swiss post-war writer, whose vast work includes journals, novels and plays, but he's in many ways the antithesis to Celan. Although he's certainly interested in politics, he's far more of a postmodern trickster and ironist, his best work discussing the vicissitudes of modern identities (the title of one of his best novels (Mein Name sei Gantenbein) could be translated as "Let's assume my name is Gantenbein", etc.). He'd published plays with a facile moral fiber and two layered, well-composed journals discussing art, writing and the issues of the day. Just this year (March 2010) drafts for a third volume of journals has been published posthumously (called Entwürfe zu einem Dritten Tagebuch). I mention this new journal, because a surprisingly large portion of it is devoted to his ambiguous feelings towards Jews and Israel, and he spends many pages justifying his latent antisemitism; Celan would not have been surprised by these ambiguities: Frisch's peculiar answer to Celan's questing, anxious letter for help against Blöcker and his antisemitic cohorts caused Celan to call his attitudes towards Jews "dubious". This answer of Frisch's, of which Correspondence offers two earlier drafts, too, is a well-written, eloquent exercise in noncommittal sophistry, a reply that stunningly turns the tables in the matter and puts Celan on the defense. Instead of discussing Blöcker's malfeasance, Frisch interrogates Celan's reaction.
I treat this matter at length because this short exchange has subsequently caused all ties between Bachmann and Celan to be severed beyond repair, and Frisch, who keeps referring to Bachmann in a condescending way and would leave her devastated a few years later, is an important part of the whole downward spiral that ensues. Mind you, there are letters that follow this exchange, but Celan would never forgive Bachmann's mild attitude towards Frisch (and, by implication, towards Böcker's review) and as the second, far more harmful and aggressive wave of attacks washed over Celan, he regarded any silence, any hesitation on Bachmann's part as proof of her enmity, of her tacit support of the generally hostile critical air. This second wave is the so-called Goll-Affair, engineered by the widow of the poet Yvan Goll. The widow, the infamous Claire Goll, had started, in the early 1950s, a thorough attempt to smear Celan as would-be plagiarist of Goll's work. To achieve this she undertook a series of crude forgeries, serving up transparent lies and frighteningly effective appeals to the base instincts of German reviewers. Her lies, obvious though they were and badly though they were argued, managed to sway legions of critics who kept publishing articles about Celan the "shyster" and "crook". Celan, shy survivor, felt persecuted again, and with some justification, blamed the residual antisemitism that regained strength at the time. He was, to take up Bachmann's early letter, no longer just adrift on the ocean, but drowning in it. Although, by 1967-9, the ire and the lies had abated somewhat, Celan's integrity and his will to write, live and create were damaged beyond repair. This poet whose poetics were primarily social, about encounters and other people, this poet felt deserted by his publisher, by friends and, yes, by Bachmann, his other, his love, whom he appeared to never cease loving even when they were apart, and just friends. It might have been just this feeling of desolation that led to his death in the hungry waters of the Seine in April 1970.
On the other hand, his deep sorrow and his obsessions threatened to engulf Bachmann, drag her down with him. Notwithstanding her own problems, she never stopped trying to save him, trying to keep him from being overwhelmed by his darkness. A draft for a letter, written late in 1961, shows how much his coldness, his suspicions and his deep despair affected her, as well. 1961 was a time where she tried to find a new way of writing. This was a time when she ceased, almost, to write poetry, and turned to prose almost exclusively. Before her death, she went on to publish two volumes of stories and a dark, haunted novel, Malina. Contrary to the suggestions of critics such as Marjorie Perloff, she didn't quit poetry because it was dominated by a "male voice". German Lyrik is a genre that provided a safe space for female writers, from Annette von Droste-Hülshoff to Marie Luise Kaschnitz, it was an allowed mode of writing that enabled male critics to read these female poets' work as artfully crafted precious pieces. Celan's reaction that read Bachmann's poetry as an extension of his loved mistress wasn't surprising, he reacted like many other writers and critics. And Bachmann was a runaway success as a poet. She sold extremely well, won many prizes and became almost a household name. Ingeborg Bachmann was a poet. Everyone knew that. But behind that facade, something else grew. Bachmann grew tired of the roles she was assigned, tired of condescension and allowed ways of expression and so she launched into writing prose. In 2000, a stunning collection of Bachmann's unpublished poems and fragments was published, called Ich weiß keine bessere Welt (~ I don't know a better world), where we can see the poet fighting to regain control over her means of expression. She twists and turns small phrases and images and castigates herself for not finding the right metaphor, the fitting phrase. These fragments show us a poet wrestling with her art, a poet ceasing to be a poet, a writer discovering prose.
In the 1961 letter, which she never sent, she demands of Celan the courage to believe in his own strength, to disregard the feeble public opinion. "The world can't and won't change, but you can", she writes and admits "you might say I demand too much of you for your own sake. You're right, I do" and adds the observation "but I demand [the same] of me, for my own sake, which lends me the courage to tell you this." The edition contains a facsimile of this letter, which is typed in a feverish manner, letters tumbling against one another, words bumping into others, testament of her inner turmoil. Bachmann, readers of her work know, fought to change, fought against a tide of negative criticism: between 1961 and her death in 1973, she was almost constantly assailed for her deviation from the public image critics had cherished so much. Her work was attacked for being a "fall from grace" and "verging on trivial", befuddling assessments for today's readers. But between 1961 and his death, Celan wrote all of two letters to Bachmann, the last one a distanced note of thanks for her role in securing him a translation assignment. On the other hand, there are no letters of Bachmann, either. Contact with Celan, however much she had loved him, was harmful to her, he demanded too much of her and as her own psyche started to give way, it's likely she didn't have the surplus energy to buoy Celan again. In all the preceding letters there's nothing to indicate that Celan would have been a help in any way. In 1962 she was left by Max Frisch and later that year she was briefly institutionalized. Her last ten years, from all we know, were a constant struggle, but the book is silent about it, as it is about Celan's troubles.
In 1963 he writes enigmatically "I have a few not quite pleasant years behind me", and the next thing we learn is in Gisèle Celan-Lestrange's letter to Bachmann, telling her "la terrible nouvelle", the horrible news about Celan's death. Her regretful conclusion "Je n'ai pas su l'aider come je l'aurais voulu" holds true for both women. The silences towards the end of the book are terrible, and one can't help but think of Bachmann's poem Reklame, a satire of modern advertising upbeat hopefulness, and its final lines
but what happens […]
when a dead silence
Correspondence is highly recommended; it's a no-brainer for fans of either of these two genius writers' work, but moreover I urge everyone who isn't a reader of Bachmann's and Celan's work, to become one. Take the opportunity to read Celan's or Bachmann's poetry, read Bachmann's novel or stories. Both writers have been widely translated into English and French, there is no conceivable reason not to have read them. Essential as their work is for German post-war literature, their greatness makes these books required reading for every reader of poetry or literary prose. One is tempted to call this collection of letters just as essential. It's not. But it's a great read, a moving, inspiring book that I have been reading and rereading constantly ever since I acquired it, a book that you will love even if you have read nothing of either writer's excellent work. I cannot overpraise this book. It's that good.

The Anti-McCann
François Monti on Denis Decourchelle's debut novel La persistance du froid
On aurait envie de voir en La persistance du froid l'anti Let the great world spin : Decourchelle ne se livre pas à un chantage émotionnel, ne tente pas d'ajouter une relevance politique forcée, ne joue pas à prétendre qu'il est à l'aise dans tous les styles et toutes les voix. C'est un peu comme si McCann était le débutant qui veut trop faire et n'y parvient pas et Decourchelle le romancier expérimenté qui sait exactement ce qu'il veut faire et comment. Il confesse ne pas avoir d'imagination. On s'en fout. Et si McCann a obtenu un National Book Award sans qu'on comprenne pourquoi, on aimerait bien que La persistance du froid ait un peu plus d'écho et de lecteur. On saura pourquoi.
Does it look like this?

Jeff Smith: Rasl: The Fire of St. George
Smith, Jeff (2010), Rasl: The Fire of St. George, Cartoon Books
Jeff Smith is an extraordinary writer and artist. Ever since he started publishing the Bone comics on his own imprint Cartoon Books, he has been consistently brilliant and fun. The whole of Bone, now available in one indispensable, addictively readable volume is one of the best graphic novels of the past decade. Since the completion of that series, he has undertaken a few smaller projects, all of which are highly recommendable, but many readers have been waiting for another epic work to approach the narrative scope and power of Bone. Two years ago, Smith did just that when he published the first volume of his new project, Rasl (pronounced like dazzle). I reviewed that first volume, which collected Rasl issues #1-3, on this blog (click here), and recommended it unreservedly. Rasl: The Drift is a fascinating work, a take on an ensemble of topics and literary traditions, from the noir to time travel books; it showed us a rough, unshaven young man, the eponymous Rasl, who travels through different dimensions, to find out he's being hunted by a lizard-faced villain in a trench-coat who can travel the dimensions with as much ease as Rasl himself, and threatens his girlfriends in several dimensions. Does this recap confuse you? Well, it is confusing, as is the book. Rasl: The Drift is a dense introduction to what promises to be one of the best contained graphic novel series of our time. Jeff Smith introduces us to a plethora of plot strands, ideas, and lots of other suggestions. The Drift is a dazzling display of the range of Jeff Smith's mind, and at the same time, it raises very high expectations for the rest of the series. When I picked up the followup volume, Rasl: The Fire of St. George, which collects Rasl issues #4-7, it wasn't without hesitations. The expectations that The Drift raises are almost impossible to fulfill. And yet, The Fire of St. George is a deeply satisfying read, both following up on ideas and suggestions of the first volume, as well as further raising expectations for the next volumes.
Rasl: The Drift told us little about the protagonist. We learned that Rasl has a lover, and that there's a version of her in every dimension he travels to, which is true for other people, as well. We find out that Rasl is a nickname of sorts or a pseudonym. His real name is Dr. Robert Johnson and he used to be a physicist, working with a friend, Dr. Miles, and a female co-worker (who eventually became a lover) on an exiting but obscurely dangerous new project. We infer that their professional relationship has gone sour and that this demise is connected to his current existence as a dimension-hopping art thief. This aspect comes somewhat late in the book and the overall topic of (serious) science was but one of a multitude of tangents that The Drift proposed to us readers. Instead, while we were busy trying to make sense of all this, Smith offered us several other kinds of explanations. Masks and symbols suggested myth and religion to us, while the lizard-faced man, the variations between the different worlds and the rough-and-tumble manner of traveling between dimensions had a strong whiff of the paranormal, with its implications of X-Files-like intrigue. All this appeared to be part of the tangle of Rasl. I say 'tangle' because The Drift makes no serious attempt to explain anything, it just piles reference on reference and plot on plot and character on character, stringing its readers along, offering but small clues here and there. This is is stark contrast to the new volume, which at times almost seems earnest, as it slowly, carefully and patiently explains a few of the allusions and suggestions of The Drift. The aspect Smith decided to shed light on first is the science bit, but he doesn't explain what exactly is happening, scientifically speaking. Instead he has Rasl tell us the story of how he and his friend came to make a momentous discovery; at the same time, he tells us about Nicola Tesla's life and his discoveries, his scientific genius and his eventual downfall.
Tesla has become a touchstone of geek-culture these past years, especially since the advent of steampunk fiction. On TV, Tesla has featured prominently in shows like Sanctuary, and the steampunk-fest Warehouse 13. In literature, apart from the use Alan Moore makes of him in The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, the perhaps most prominent appearance of Tesla is in Thomas Pynchon's masterful Against The Day. Tesla appeals to a certain demographic because he's just the right amount of anti-establishment, mixed with a dash of unorthodox genius. His attraction for writers is also due to the fact that for every invention that was eventually realized and used, there is an obscure, unfinished, rumored invention. And because we don't really know, writers are free to imagine anything, and so Nicola Tesla, whatever the facts about the historical Tesla, has become some kind of real-life Jules Verne character, just as outrageous and mysterious as Captain Nemo. In The Fire of St. George, Smith even proposes that Tesla was the inspiration behind the Frankenstein in James Whale's 1931 Frankenstein movie that deviated quite strongly from Mary Shelley's novel. This idea is then followed up by a short re-telling of Tesla's life as a scientist. For anyone even remotely familiar with the man, these sections of the book will seem a bit tedious, a reiteration of what seems to be common knowledge. Telling one's readers about some relatively well know historical fact is something that many lesser writers do in order to manufacture some fact-related credibility for their far-fetched plots. The most annoying example of this is probably Dan Brown, but these days, that's all the rage, from Kostova's Historian to Mosse's Labyrinth and the books by Preston/Child, bookshelves groan under the weight of annoying, simplified knowledge. Smith, however, isn't a lesser writer, and his use of these historical sections may seem similar, but they are in fact far more complex and intriguing than that, but they don't wear this difficulty on their sleeve.
In The Drift, readers knew they needed to look for clues to find their way around the bewildering events of the book, and so most will have read the book with care, parsing the panels for hints and subtleties. The tone in The Fire of St. George appears to be very different, the narrative far more clear and conventional. The X-Files reference has become stronger, with a mixture of unexplained phenomena (in the 1940s, a ship vanishes in the middle of the ocean), sober scientific explanations and the beginnings of a governmental conspiracy or cover-up operation. Jeff Smith, however, is a talented and insightful writer, and so even simple-seeming stories have unexpected depths. There is, for example, the absence of mysticism or religion from this volume (with a few eerie exceptions) although the first volume strongly hinted at these issues. But in the retelling and the images thereof, there are ellipses, and smaller nudges that one could almost have overlooked, from the fact that Rasl tells us about the creation scene of the Frankenstein movie, but omits the line "In the name of God! Now I know what it's like to be God" that is one of the central lines of the movie and is, I think, one of the underlying themes of the whole Rasl story, that will be talking about issues like the creation of dimensions and the question of the humanity of people in other dimensions. Smith's art contributes to this, by abandoning what feels like a dark, hollow black-and-white style for an almost flat iconicity in his biography of Tesla (except for a few panels where the Tesla bio bleeds into Rasl's disturbed own life. This is but one example of countless others. Smith has abandoned the nested detail of Bone for a style, both in the writing and in the art, that seems more simple, dominated by large swathes of black and white, with sweaty, scared, hunted Rasl aka Dr. Johnson trying to make sense of the trench-coated man who follows him everywhere, making ominous threats. For all the explanations, we are doing the same, because every answered question opens up another pack of questions.
To the mysterious symbols introduced in the first volume, a mysterious silent child is added. The symbol tied into a whole discussion about native American myths, and its speculative connections to mysticism and extraterrestrial life. Since the symbols only appear in the 'new' dimensions, i.e. dimensions different from Rasl's original one, questions about the nature of chronology and the laws of cause and effect are raised. Also, skeptic doubts about the validity of referring to any world as the 'original' one. The child, as well as Rasl's multiple lovers add to this questions of the body, and of its connection to intra-dimensional energies. If this makes it sound as if Smith were engaging in weird esoteric speculation, he isn't. Instead he is using common scientific knowledge (there's a very short bibliography appended if you happen to not know some popular books on the subject (I'm betting all of you know at least 80% of them, so common is this knowledge)) and his own inspiration as writer and artist to launch questions and suggestions at his readers, nudging them, egging them on, raising expectations again and again. To be honest, there's so much build-up even in this second volume, that it's hard to see how on earth Jeff Smith's going to make good on his promises, but experience tells us that he might manage. After all, if we remember all the things that happened between the first Bone volume and the last, we might almost be confident that it works out to the best. If it does, the Rasl narrative might turn out to be one of the best graphic novels of our time, similar to writers like Grant Morrison or Thomas Pynchon, but more grounded than the former and just plain different than the latter. Already, an announcement of a new Rasl volume is a great bit of news, but so far, all we have are teasers. If Smith follows up on them, we are bearing witness to a great work in progress. Already, Rasl: The Drift and Rasl: The Fire of St. George are excellent reads, intriguing, well written, fantastically penciled and inked. I recommended the first volume in my review of it, and I do so again. Read Jeff Smith, and read Rasl. The next volume will be called Romance at the Speed of Light.

Hello Readers,
As you may already know my favourite genres are romantic suspense and thriller, and I have read many books that fell within these categories. For today´s post, I am mentioning my favorite top 4 female characters in these books. Mostly, they are from authors that I loved and I have read several books of them. No secret that I enjoy reading a book where the female character is a strong, independent and intelligent woman with great careers ahead of them.
Eve Dallas from the "In Death" series
This shouldn´t come as a surprise because is not the first time that I mentioned these books. This is a book series written by one of my favorite authors from a long time now, J.D. Robb. I have read several of the installments so I feel like I have got to know her pretty good. She is a survival. She had a horrible past (an abusive father), which for some might mean end up with a screw up live, but she didn´t let that stop her from becoming an amazing detective. She has a strong sense of justice which always drives her towards the right and hard choices and to protect people, even if they aren´t good people.
Stevie Mazzeti from "Watch your back"
"Watch your back" is written by Karen Rose and though I have read several of her books (they are all amazing, dark adn with twisted plots) my favorite would be this one. Stevie is a homicide detective that lost her husband and her older son in what seemed to be a robbery gone wrong. She was left pregnant. She had to endure a very difficult time just to have her daughter but that never stopped her.
She is also very intelligent and brave but also very closed in her emotions, as she doesn´t want people close in case she can loose them, and is also very focused on her work. She is veyr good at reading other people's faces and see if they are lying to solve a case.
Kay Scarpetta
Doctor Kay Scarpetta is the Chief medical examiner created by Patricia Cornwell. I liked this series because you are able to see another side of the investigation of a murder. In these books you can see two faces of Scarpetta. The family side (she takes her of her niece Lucy and elaborates on how to prepare nice italian food :)) and the professional one (how she investigates the cases and approaches the crime). There are several books in the series so you are able to see the evolution and development of the character. She gets fires, moves to another city, gets promoted, … which makes this character so much real.
Miss Marple
Miss Marple from Agatha Christie's, another of my favorite authors of all times. Who doesn´t like an adorable old lady that likes to stick her noise in other people's business while uncovering the truth behind an homicide? I think this character is just fascinating. She takes advantage of the façade of trusty old lady to get people to tell her things that in other situations they wouldn´t tell to anybody. She is also very good at reading people, and of course, very very intelligent.
Do you know any of these characters? What are you favorite female characters?

Dwell on Woodside
8 guests · 3 bedrooms · 3 bathrooms
Thoughtful modern design and a convenient slope-side location make Dwell on Woodside an easy choice for a relaxed ski holiday. With great proximity to the mountain and Park City's charming downtown, this luxury vacation rental couldn't make it simpler to spend your days on the trails and your evenings exploring the area.
You'll want to spend most of your stay skiing, hiking or otherwise enjoying Utah's incredible natural scenery. But when you return to Dwell on Woodside, step onto the back deck for a soak in the hot tub or to prep dinner on the barbecue. The villa's interiors are an intriguing mix of old and new, traditional and contemporary. Though the beamed, vaulted ceilings, stone mantel and iron chandelier of the living room bring to mind stately European estates, the plush sofas, playful beanbag chair and colorful glass art have a more relaxed feel. Slipcovered chairs seat up to eight at the dining table, and drafting stools offer four more perches—and a great view of the artwork—at the breakfast bar in the fully equipped kitchen.
If you've come out West for the skiing, you'll appreciate the easy access to Park City Mountain Resort and the 5-minute drive to Deer Valley Resort. You're also just a short walk from downtown Park City, which has everything from the playful Park Silly Sunday Market and quaint historic architecture to honeymoon-worthy restaurants and lively nightlife. Other local sights include the Swaner Preserve and EcoCenter and Utah Olympic Park, and if it's not a true getaway without golf, you'll find a course just 2.5 miles away.

The prostate is a gland found only in males. As shown in the picture below, the prostate is just below the bladder and in front of the rectum. The size of the prostate varies with age. In younger men, it is about the size of a walnut, but it can be much larger in older men. The tube that carries urine (the urethra) runs through the center of the prostate. The prostate contains cells that make some of the fluid (semen) that protects and nourishes the sperm.
Cancer that forms in tissues of the kidneys. Kidney cancer includes renal cell carcinoma (cancer that forms in the lining of very small tubes in the kidney that filter the blood and remove waste products) and renal pelvis carcinoma (cancer that forms in the center of the kidney where urine collects). It also includes Wilms tumor, which is a type of kidney cancer that usually develops in children under the age of 5.

Interior designers are trained individuals with an envious talent for pulling a room together, often using things you would never imagine. We certainly have a lot to offer and are an excellent resource for those who hire us — but what makes a designer stand out is the way they think about design. This post will give you an insight to how IDDS Interior thinks about design:
The Design Trichotomy: this can be referred to as the ability of IDDS designers to be able to adopt the mind frames of 3 different persons involved in the design – the Financer, the Designer and the User.
Merely looking at these 3 persons, you can tell that their needs and requirements for a space cannot be exactly the same.
As core Commercial Interior Designers, we have mastered the art of thinking like these 3 persons, as opposed to only thinking like an Interior Designer.
As the Financer, the first and most basic element for why any client chooses their designer is price. As designers, we try and minimize the headache in the budgeting process by being as upfront as possible with our costs from the get go. Being clear with everything budget-wise on both ends of the client/designer equation can directly lead to better client relationships and makes for an easy transition from talking logistics to actually designing.
Secondly, most clients are aware that they will be investing a significant amount of time and, more importantly, a fair share of faith and trust into their designer. Therefore, it's important that clients find someone with whom they vibe with, a designer with a personality and work habits similar to theirs. As the Designer, it is our job to create a space that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing to both the Financer and the User of the Space.
As the User, the needs would vary differently depending on the kind of space it is, and also the target market of the business. For instance, if a space is being created by IDDS, for the use of pregnant women, we would consider every need of a pregnant woman during the design of the space, from the perfect furniture to the best flooring for ease of movement.
3 Dimensional Approach to Design: at IDDS Interiors, we view the design of a space in a 3 dimensional manner. The design of a space for us, is beyond colors and patterns, as we take every element of a space into consideration. The major elements of every space would include – the Ceiling treatment, Wall treatment, floor treatment, Furniture, Accessories and Soft Furnishing, Window treatment and Lighting.
A great design needs a combination of well thought plans for all these elements, if that is not done, a design can look empty and feel lacking.
At IDDS, we also put every element of design into consideration during our design process. The elements of design includes Space, Line, Color, Light, Texture, Pattern and Form. These elements need to flow and be properly aligned during the design of a space.
Collaboration and Teamwork: at IDDS, we strongly believe that when it comes to maximizing the effectiveness of an organization, no matter how big or small, teamwork can improve just about every aspect of its performance. Collaborating on a project creates an enthusiasm for learning that solitary work usually lacks. Being able to share discoveries with the rest of your team excites employees and fosters both individual and team knowledge. So at IDDS, one designer does not totally drive a design, instead, we work together to pull the design of a space together, and finally choose the direction that the design would take.
In both design and execution phases, we have also mastered the art of communication with every other team involved in the design of a space. Constant communication between builder, architect and interior designer prevents issues from arising, solves problems quickly and helps create a perfect interior.
Sensual Design: a sensual space is one that is relaxing and comfortable. It is inviting, welcoming, with an air of sophistication and maturity. A sensual space is one where you feel as though you can manage to escape the daily grind of today's hectic world.
The design of a space should ideally appeal to the 5 senses of the user; Sight, Smell, Sound, Touch and Taste (where needed). At IDDS, we understand the need for consumer experience to be at its best, and that is why we make sure to appeal as best as possible, to the human senses, during our design, to create the best user experience.
Designers and most people in every culture generally agree that we have positive feelings of a space that we 'feel' is sensuous. It influences our perception and it affects our experience.
Biophilic Design: Biophilia is a design driver that engages the end user by connecting them to primal instincts about the relationship between humans and nature. When done properly, we are calmed by the sight of greenery in the form of live plants and living walls, the sight, and sound of water, access to views of natural settings, and tactile organic materials such as wood and stone.
At IDDS, we prioritize Biophilia, as we ensure the use of live plants during design, in bringing nature into the interior of a building. Biophilic design can reduce stress, enhance creativity and clarity of thought, improve our well-being and expedite healing; as the world population continues to urbanize, these qualities are ever more important.
Biophilia is not just about plants, the obvious application of biophilia for indoor environments is the addition of plant life, but that's just the beginning. Human response to natural processes goes much farther. Maximizing natural light benefits people as well as energy bills, but biophilic interventions incorporate natural lighting from diffusion to temporal changes.
Sustainable Design: at IDDS Interiors, we are sustainable interior designers, and we are committed to finding ways to balance aesthetics and functionality with choices that reduce the environmental impact of their designs. We practice sustainable interior design by designing for energy efficiency, designing for low environmental impact, designing for waste reduction, designing for longevity and flexibility and designing for healthy environments.
We maximize the efficient use of space, we use energy-wise construction and design materials, we use materials produced in socially responsible manners, we reduce waste by using reclaimed or recycled materials, we plan for energy-efficient lighting and we use non-toxic and non-polluting products to achieve a sustainable design.

Jumia Review: How to Acquire Items, Rates, Payment Possibilities, and Delivery. I ordered a new battery on tmart and it said it delivered……on wed 1 dec 1969…….

I locate the tagging method useful, but it is a tiny out of handle often and I haven't entirely figured out what the symbols subsequent to the title of the doc imply. It really is so subjective as to what the worth is. It seems like individuals are burning the candle down just for the ring so that $25 candle is expensive. People who sell on SwankyMaison are all up and coming designer-makers who choose to spend their time generating, not selling, providing them more time to concentrate on their art.

Mel B's bitter custody battle with her ex-husband is back on again after she accused him of showing her daughter videos of terrorist beheadings.
The Spice Girls star has filed new documents asking a judge to keep Stephen Belafonte away from Angel, her child from a fling with Eddie Murphy.
In the papers, obtained by The Blast, the singer and TV personality claims her ex left the 10-year-old terrified after allegedly airing the gruesome videos as she watched.
She maintains Belafonte showed all their children videos of "ISIS beheading individuals," and Angel Murphy Brown was really upset by them.
Mel B also claims her ex-husband recently gave their biological daughter Madison a teddy bear to give to Angel. Inside was a piece of paper with his phone number, so that Angel could contact him.
The latest filing comes as Belafonte fights for visitation with Angel, claiming he developed a special bond with his stepdaughter. Mel insists he really doesn't know anything about the 10-year-old, claiming a recent list of likes and dislikes suggested he was mixing up his biological daughter and stepdaughter.
A judge will rule on Belafonte's request for visitation later this month.

The post office in Berlin, today the home of a postal museum. More views below:

What I love about this postcard is that it's not of the post office itself, but of the stalls or booths of the scribes who would write the letters and documents that others could not, prior to their being mailed.
And here's an image of the post office itself, the domed building in the foreground, today the home of Egypt's Postal Museum. The castle-like structure behind it is the headquarters of the Cairo Fire Brigade. Both buildings are on Al-Ataba Square.
